The Koz Effect

Koz talks to his favorite rock singer ever, Joie Blaney aka Dead Blonde Girlfriend about his impending major surgery and the changes it has brought to his life and creative process.

It was the same day as Mayweather-Pacquaio fight, but the REAL battle took place at Radio Titans studio between one of our longtime liberals, Dr. David Robinson, and one of America's top and most daring conservative comics, Evan Sayet. They engaged in a battle royale of jokes and arguing that made Koz actually stop the show for a palate-cleansing and very funny rant from Will Durst. Covering everything from Baltimore to Bernie Sanders, this one was a knockout!

Bruce Jenner came out as a woman, and America tuned in to see the results - and the gang at Koz Effect are here to talk about it and all the issues it entails! Well, that and the insane police brutality in Baltimore. You'd never expect it, but we tie those issues together and find a way to make them both meaningful AND funny! With Tymon Shipp, Dr. David Robinson, Ari David and Koz in studio and legendary five-time Emmy nominee Will Durst on the phone, this is one incredibly funny episode!

An amazingly funny episode, with the original Angry Black Man of “Koz Effect,” Ted Lyde, back in the house and restraining himself from killing the new resident conservative, Ari David. Dr. David Robinson had a joke in “The Week We Were” that made Koz turn purple with laughter, Dr. David also admitted for the first time ever that Reagan was right (well, once, according to him), Ari went down the “why Ted’s not a thug” checklist, and Ted actually agreed with Ari about the need to control our borders, but just differed on how. Plus we tackled the gyroscope pilot who landed on the White House lawn. Get ready to laugh!!!

Julia Fairlight has a big booming soulful voice that carries on the tradition of Janis Joplin, and she also goes old school in her music's production values with a Wall of Sound approach (courtesy of producer Andrew Monheim, musical director of Radio Titans' "Pajama Party"). She has also overcome an eating disorder and addictions, coming out the other side with a strongly inspirational point of view and boisterously joyful music. Her debut CD "Midnight Muse" is a blast of fun fresh air, and she brought that energy to this Kozversation.!

We never actually got around to debating the week's news, because instead panelists Tymon Shipp, Ari David, Dr. David Robinson, 5 time Emmy nominee Will Durst and host Carl Kozlowski wound up arguing about Ted Cruz, teacher salaries, unions, climate change and the Iranian attempts for a nuclear bomb. With a fresh batch of Robinson news jokes and a great rant from Durst, this is one episode you can't miss!!!
