Topics include: radio through the years, pitch meetings, The Ari/Weezy feud and Frazer's up close take on the Michael Richards incident because he was the MC that evening at The Laugh Factory.

This week, we welcome comedian, Kira Saltanovich and get into what's funny and why. Why? Because we were visited by documentary filmmaker, Justin "JD" Cohen and his camera and they wanted some answers. Laura, Weezy and Kira were discussed the art of being funny and the specific challenges of being funny as a woman. It's a great podcast. Tune in...

Our guest for Podcast 73 is the highly enlightened and hugely entertaining Bryan Callen. Bryan's credits include: Mad TV, Sex in the City, Oz and Comedy Nights in Santa Barbara, but more importantly, Bryan is smart. His insights stunned even Ari into silence.

Laura and Weezy welcome Writer/Producer Steve O'Donnell whose impressive credits include 15 years as Head Writer at Letterman, plus Seinfeld, Chris Rock, and currently, Jimmy Kimmel live. This week's podcast delves into such topics as: comedy, writing as well as comedy writing and as if that weren't enough, the show ventures into the compellingly sensitive issues of appropriate vs. inappropriate humor, workplace conduct vs. misconduct, socially conscious behavior vs misbehavior and "Hairspray" the musical. Do you dare listen? Do you dare not listen? Is Steve O'Donnell our most interesting guest to date? It's entirely possible. You tell us...

Joining us for Podcast 70 was comedian, John Roy. He's as hilarious as he is bald. We played some comedy and called our new friend Alan of and talked about his latest New York date, which he was on while we talked. (should a guy take phone calls from the media during a first date?) Then, John laid out the rules of running a comedy club, many of which Ari and I are breaking at our Comedy Nights. So, much was learned, laughed and loved. Join us...

Podcast 69 stars rapidly rising young comedian, Sam Tripoli and raises many questions but doesn't answer them. Questions such as: Are hot women more or less confident than less hot women? What attracts someone to someone else? Why did Spike TV hire Sam? Are they trying to kill him? And what happens to Ari when he doesn't get to talk about politics? It's a great show. Thanks for being here and we hope you enjoy it...

Our guest is Comedian, Brett Ernst. He is a very funny man who will soon be starring in a MTV wrestling show and in a documentary with Vince Vaughn about The Wild West Comedy Tour. Here in the podcast, the discussion gets lofty as we call the man behind bedjump.com and then we spiril into dangerous political water as Ari, Laura and Brett go at it while Weezy gets the hose. Enjoy Podcast Number 68! In the photo, Ian Broyles is in for Siggy and of course, a bed jumper... Here is the video blog...

Please welcome Lisa Arch, formerly Lisa Kushell to the podcast. Lisa is a truly wonderul comedic actress whose credits range from Seinfeld to Mad TV. She's one of the funniest people we know and she's starring this week on The TV Guide Channel. On the podcast, no topic was safe. We delved into marriage and furniture and careers and anger and guilt and redemption. Don't panic. It's all pretty funny. I sing the "Lisa Lisa Lisa" song, Ari guesses cup sizes and Lisa reveals what it's like to be trapped under Kramer from Seinfeld. So listen in...

Our guest in the studio is comedian and voice re-enactor, Mark Sussman. Mark's job is to over-dub dialogue to make it TV friendly. How does a guy get a job like this? Mark can pretty much impersonate anyone. Even Ari, the newest member of our Weezy and The Swish family. Topics range from romantic entanglements to techniques for achieving romantic entanglements. Mark does a lot of impressions, Laura talks about her newest job and lots of other neat stuff happens. So listen in...

Our guests are comedians and couple, Ari David and Fini Goodman. Together, we talked about how these two met and fell in love, how anyone meets and falls in love. What drew Fini to Ari romantically, when she thought she hated him and went out of her way to avoid eye contact. We spoke about comedy and comedians we know and comedy shows and producing and various, assorted topics of interest. And this time, with Ari as a guest, rather than enter the heated discussion waters of politics, we instead into the safer topic of religion.

Listen and enjoy...

While Laura was away, in her apartment, Guy Brannum stepped in with our guest, comedian/actor Matt Champagne. We phoned Laura, and although she was very busy, in her apartment, she took the time to speak to us, on the phone, since she was a good... 20 minutes away and couldn't be with us. We talked about Laura's karaoke birthday party and we explored the intricacies of karaoke singing. Please see the video below of Laura's karaoke party if you don't believe how good we are at the art of karaoke. We also spoke of video games and acting and played Nick's phone message. It's a good podcast. Join us, won't you...

Our guest is Rob "Iceman" Izenberg, Premiere Radio's premier parody song man. Iceman came equipped with parody songs that touch upon Mel Gibson's loves and hates... alcohol and Jews, among other topical topics. We sang and played live. Iceman on vocals and keyboard, Weezy on drums, Laura on edge. We talked about weddings and music and inspiration and many other touching points of interest. And may I just add, Iceman is hilarious. One of the funniest people I have ever known so I can highly recommend this podcast.

Podcast 60 guest stars two blonde comedians, Chrissy Haberman and Rylee Newton. This brings the total number of blonde, female comedians in the studio at one time to three. An all time high. We talked about Laura's passive agressive driving, comedy, men, and stupid men which of course brought us to Mel Gibson. This is a very entertaining podcast. Does Chrissy do a wonderful impression of Drew Barrymore? I think you know that the answer is going to be yes. Tune on in.
