Funny, as usual. The usual cast of nutballs brings you more from Hoyt, Married Man, Mad Max, and the lunacy of the John Boy and Billy Playhouse.

Political correctness jumps out the window...

"John Boy and Billy are not going to make you feel good if you are unable to laugh at yourself.The characters on this "radio show" album are as rich as those we used to see during the early years of Saturday Night Live.Mad Max: Spring-loaded in the "ticked off" position, and willing to attack women, gays, PETA and anything the writers can think of.Lipless: An opportunity to laugh at the people who laugh at the people who laugh at other people.Miss Dipesto: The predictable, mercenary secretary who is always dumping some guy for a good reason: "We had religious differences. He thought he was God, and I didn't."Marvin Webster: The African-American who remembers what it was like to be a black man who found endless amusement in the bland entertainment that enraptures white people. "Man, what is it with you white people and outer space?"Dub: This is one character I will truly miss. He played the part of the "clueless older gentleman" again and again. A geriatric John Belushi, the Dubber is now dead...This troupe is original, refreshing and unrepentingly disrespectful of everything. Many of their other releases are only available through their website "thebigshow.com", and we can only hope that they broaden their distribution channel.Get the album at your own risk. If you do not laugh out loud, you are probably a pederastic priest or the parent of one."
