The Comedy Store Podcast

Rick and Eleanor are two podcast hosts in search of excitement. When a sexy and mysterious friend by the name of Earl Skakel makes his way down into their basement of comedy pleasure, they may have found exactly what they were looking for. But is Earl their latest victim, or will Rick and Eleanor succumb to his confident charms? Will memories of the old manager, Tommy, rear their head and take our brave hosts off their game? Everything is up in the air and out in the open but one thing is for sure... Whatever happens, it's going to be worth it.

The power duo of Rick and Eleanor take time to sit down with Michael Jackson aficionado and television writer, Willie Hunter. As he guides them on a beautifully intoned journey through the veritable Roman wilderness of his Comedy Store memories, Rick and Eleanor are repeatedly distracted by the fact that other people are allowed to be in the same building as them. Also, Rick begins to suspect the sound guy of purposefully inserting creepy noises into his headphones that only Rick can hear and then taking them out in post so Rick seems mentally unstable.
