We've started DVRing "Live at Gotham", a stand up show on Comedy Central. It's hit or miss - sometimes it's too dirty or unfunny to watch, but last week we came across this guy we really like. He's going to do a show in Jersey in October so we might actually make the effort to go see him. Preliminary research indicates that the theater is easy to get to from the train but we’ll see if it really happens or not. Check him out:
On the last episode, there was an unfunny Mormon comedian named Bengt Washburn. He was pretty awkward and didn’t get the same laughs other comedians did. His humor was based mostly on the weird things Mormons believe. So maybe it would be funnier in Utah where people get the jokes, instead of in NYC where it was just confusing. I prefer it when Mormons celebrities are funny or famous for being normal instead of pointing out all the oddities of the culture – not really the best PR for the church, at any rate. Here’s one of his marginally better clips:
