The holiday movie season (and Oscar season) is in full-swing as Joel and Ted Moss review some of the award hopefuls including the very good Green Book, and the awful Netflix/Coen Brothers cash-burn The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. What’s worth a look this holiday?  Lots of reviews to hear as Melissa McCarthy gets serious, those…

Comedian Ted Moss returns to tell of his recent audition for America’s Got Talent. While Joel explains that reality TV show auditions aren’t all they are cracked up to be, Ted says that his went well. Hear all the details of how it’s not like what you see on TV and how many jugglers were…

The supermarket Kroger has made house-brand cheese snacks that mock stand-up comedy and Joel and Corey Hall were upset. Then they ate them and thought they weren’t half-bad. Hear the controversy and why the actual snacks aren’t exactly what they thought they were. Also, Joel does Halloween – the movie – and a haunted house,…

Comedian Ted Moss returns to sit in with Joel and tells him everything he knows about comedy. Unfortunately, much of what what Ted has to say is wrong, at least according to Joel.

This show is all over the place. In a good way, though, as Corey Hall returns to talk about Chevy Chase’s public meltdown, Judge Kavanaugh fighting over UB40, Russian bots hacking Star Wars and more nonsense.

Joel Radio returns with news of comedians getting fired, as Michelle Wolf and Joel McHale lost their shows on Netflix. Joel (Fragomeni) explains why basic cable stars don’t translate to an on-demand service and why late-night TV died with the loss of Leno and Letterman. Corey Hall thinks Trevor Noah was a bad hire, too…

Joel survives a credit card calamity and a water main break to bring you this show where he and Corey Hall discuss a new Academy Award for “popular picture”.  This seems redundant at best and idiotic at worst. Is this just a way to award Black Panther but not really award Black Panther? The guys…

Do comedians regret their comedy bits? Sure. Sometimes. That is the finding of a New York Magazine article and that sentiment is shared by Joel and Corey Hall on this show. Not that the hosts object to what they’ve done on moral grounds – Joel just thinks it hurts the show sometimes. Hear what the…

Comedian Bill Hildebrandt has been a frequent guest over the years on this show, and he returns to plug his upcoming shows at Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle this weekend.
