What could be more pointless than ANOTHER Podcast? How about one that's focused on the grating and tediously over-populated world of streaming stand-up comedy 'specials'? Can we sweeten the pot by making the hosts two old gits whose love of comedy and social relevance have long since faded to nothingness? If that sounds like just the thing you're looking for then boy do we have 30-40 minutes of your listening time to waste that you'll never get back! Hosts are Bill and Mark and tech production and artistic direction is by Christian. We'll only publish full names when we hit 10K subscriptions and start to monetize.© 2025 Art Performing Arts Stand-up Shows

    Review: Live At The El Rey, Stephen Lynch
    Jul 8 2026

    After bouncing around the exciting topics of movie marketing strategies, coping with depression and clown paintings we knuckle down to reviewing the 2002 offering Live At The El Rey by comedic guitar maestro Stephen Lynch. We offer up some takes hotter than a July afternoon in Chicago and you can add yours too by watching it for free on Youtube: Live At The El Rey. You should watch it before listening to the review.

    Theme music: El Cha Cha Man by Juanitos. Juanitos, led by Juan Naveira, is the single French rock'n'roll and soul band mixing latin soul, exotica, acid jazz, punk, vocal pop and sometimes reggae roots in the Jackie Mittoo style. They are very good.

  • Review: Night Thoughts, Kumail Nanjiani

    Review: Night Thoughts, Kumail Nanjiani
    Jun 24 2026

    There's no avoiding this so we're going to come right out and say it: This episode reviewing Kumail Nanjiani's special Night Thoughts is 2 hours long. And if you think that is painful to listen to imagine how awful it was recording it! A very long preamble and a 'dishing of the T' as 'the youth' like to say is no excuse. Is 2 hours too long? Only you can decide: Available on Hulu only (yeah, we know) - Night Thoughts. You should watch it before listening to the review.
