- #24 - Kathy Griffin : more than just a potty-mouthed and hilarious stand-up comedian!
Send us Fan Mail
Thank you for tuning in to today's episode, it's about Kathy Griffin, one of the most naturally talented and funny comedians to be on stage in the past several decades. On today's show, you will learn all about what drove her to a life in show business as well as the difficult situations she has dealt with behind the scenes.
On this episode, I mentioned a funny bit where Kathy Griffin impersonates Celine Dion and pokes fun at her Cirque du Soleil show in Las Vegas. I forgot that some of the language is more off-color than I remembered so I decided I would not post a link to it, but you are welcome to look it up! Note- the humor is very adult-oriented.

About Pop Culture Retrospective
From the publisher's feed
Join me as we board a time machine and travel back to the retro pop culture of the 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s! On each episode, I take a deep dive into the backstory behind topics such as music,…
tv shows, movies, technology, regrettable fashions, and events from this unique period of time. This show is inspired by and dedicated to the memory of my older sister, Rebecca who I lost tragically in 2019. I want to learn the back story, the story behind the story, the hidden secrets, and fun facts of all of the things that she was into. This show is my love letter to my big sister. Anyone who is interested in learning more about the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s will want to tune in! Follow me on social media!
