From the moment I started my dopey podcast, if you asked what comedian I would want to have on, my answer would have been Doug Stanhope in a NY heartbeat. I tried reaching out through channels, knowing it was probably never going to happen. I even asked his man Ggreg Chaille who i had to blow to get him on...no response. For the record, I planned on welching on that debt.
I didn't have to. I was on Twitter and i saw DS tweeted "send me a link to one of those zoom things, I'll join in". He didn't tweet it to me. He tweeted the whole fucking world. I knew it had to be a joke but I figured what the hell. I sent a link and pulled up my livestream for the podcast...just in case. I was about to say the hell with it when I got the notification sound some joined...it was him.
The conversation lasted until his wifi froze up and then I signed off. He came back after I was off the air and I had few more moments to talk to him. Made my fucking year, made my decade.
