Laugh Tracks Legends of Comedy with Randy and Steve

There are legends and then there are LEGENDS -- and Chicago's Second City comedy troupe is the second kind. This episode we focus on Second City in the 1960s - before they became known as a talent pool for SNL and SCTV! After morphing from the Compass Players improv troupe, Second City became known for finely tuned sketches -- often deriving absurd and hilarious results from a normal setting (or vice versa). And the name itself -- The Second City -- had its own comedy meaning, having been pulled from a series of unflattering articles about Chicago in the New Yorker in 1952. The impact of Second City on the comedy world has been immense with players from Robert Klein to Joan Rivers to Harold Ramis to John and Jim Belushi to Bill and Brian Doyle-Murray gracing the stage over time. So, if you are ever in Chicago, make a pilgrimage to 1616 North Wells Street where the Second City awaits, busy at work training the next generation of sketch comedy stars! As always, find extended cuts below and thanks for sharing our shows. Want more Second City? An early classic from Second City asked the question "What would happen if the University of Chicago had a football team? Ask no longer!https://vimeo.com/195830483?fl=pl&fe=sh Fred Willard and Robert Klein are two of our favorite comics -- and they both worked the boards at Second City early in their careers. This bit features both men in a parody of Ripley's Believe It or Not! https://youtu.be/MAB4ZIgL6j0?si=rVahywZ8OBrtpTa7&t=1115 It's always fun to go back in time and listen to future comedy stars honing their craft. This fine collection gathers sketches from throughout the years (and thanks for the time stamps!). Dip in anywhere and laughter will follow! https://youtu.be/MAB4ZIgL6j0?si=cgNkZeeM4Hk4Qqkk

Not since the Greco-Roman period has sculpture mattered this much in sports. And Jerry Saltz — the Pulitzer Prize-winning senior art critic for New York magazine — has zero idea who Dwyane Wade is. Which is precisely why we asked the erstwhile Jewish Cowboy (we'll explain) to evaluate our athletic Bronze Age, from Michael Jordan to Cristiano Ronaldo. And that's before we get to "I Can't Believe It's Not Pablo (Butter on Gasbag, 2024)." Plus: the conscious uncoupling of art and money, sex workers in Jacksonville, how to make an enemy of envy, and why you can't be a vampire alone.

John Otway – self-billed as “Rock And Roll's Greatest Failure” - has played 5,260 gigs in 53 years, a record possibly only beaten by BB King. There are more this autumn of course. He simply can't stop. “People buying me drinks and telling me what a good bloke I am? Why would you stop?” We talk to him here about the art of shambling stagecraft and a life lived almost permanently on the road, which involves … ... a burning desire to perform from the age of nine. … “Don't think before opening your mouth!” … the rhythm of life when you play two gigs a week for five decades. And the value of ‘Micro-stardom' - “I'm at the bar when they walk in”. … seeing the Move, Free and Mott the Hoople in Aylesbury. … how people always noticed him – not least because “I was idiot-dancing by the bass speakers”. ... his first performance, a massively overwrought version of Peter Sarstedt's Where Do You Go To My Lovely. … best-selling Otway merch - “I Can't Believe It's Not Better! It's Nearly Rock And Roll But I Like It!” etc. … “You have to capture an audience in the first 20 seconds.” ... why playing the same size venues every night doesn't challenge you. … a recent three-month ‘trial retirement'. … when he estimates he'll play his 6,000th gig. … and his planned and bank-breaking 2026 World Tour.

#235 Outliers: Jimmy Pattison — Building a $16B Empire Without Connections, Capital, or Credentials

At 96 years old, Jimmy Pattison still runs his $16 billion empire personally.  He's built it over 63 years without outside capital or a college degree. He owns 100% of car dealerships, billboards, radio stations—even Ripley's Believe It or Not—with a philosophy of: "No partners, no shareholders, no relatives."  This episode reveals the principles behind one of North America's great private empires: how to build and compound a reputation, why the best deals happen in silence, and what a Japanese bicycle taught him about operational excellence. You'll learn the hidden advantage of selling “souvenir editions” instead of newspapers, how he turned a ghost radio station into a ratings leader overnight, and why he once fired the entire bottom 10% of his staff—then took them out for steak.  Most people play for approval. Pattison plays for permanence through reputation, relentless clarity, and never mistaking flash for fundamentals.  This episode is for informational purposes only and is based on Jimmy: An Autobiography by Jim Pattison and Paul Grescoe.  Check out highlights from these books in our repository, and find key lessons from Pattison here—⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://fs.blog/knowledge-project-podcast/outliers-jimmy-pattison/ Approximate timestamps: Subject to variation due to dynamically inserted ads: (00:00) How a Teen Sold Yesterday's News(01:10) Jimmy Pattison's Billion-Dollar Playbook(03:24) The Debt That Built Character(05:41) Part 1: Foundations - The Boy Who Sold Seeds Door-To-Door(06:52) When Victory Becomes a Liability(08:46) The University of Used Cars(10:02) The Art of the Close(13:30) When Business Becomes Theater(15:22) The Price of Independence(16:36) The Pattern(17:44) Part 2: Starting to Build - Back to Zero(18:09) The Price of Independence(20:08) Bleeding Money(21:11) The Secret Weapon(22:11) The Main Street Disaster(23:09) Dead Air to Hot Air(24:33) The Ghost Station(25:40) The Conglomerate Dream(27:03) The Target(28:24) Cold Calling Wall Street(29:35) The Silent Hunt(30:49) The Takeover(31:36) Part 3: Neonex International - Perfect Timing, Wrong Direction(32:09) The Magic Money Machine(34:17) The Toast Order(35:06) The Forbidden Target(36:15) The Christmas Surprise(37:27) The Bluff(38:07) The Unraveling(39:07) The Education(40:27) Part 4: The Jim Pattison Group of Companies - Returning the Paintings(40:49) The Corporate Confession(42:08) The New Operating System(44:01) The Dinner That Changed Everything(46:23) The Great Escape(47:31) The Boy and the Bicycle(49:07) The Quality Revolution(51:14) Part 5: The Empire Builder - Still at the Wheel(51:47) The New Playbook(54:17) The Grocery Gambit(55:13) The Media Monopoly(55:52) The Numbers Game(57:20) The Ultimate Lesson(59:15) Reflections and Lessons Upgrade—If you want to hear my thoughts and reflections at the end of all episodes, join our membership: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fs.blog/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and get your own private feed.

This week, we're exploring the fine line between neighborly and nefarious. Because sure, community is important—but not all of them are worth joining. Trevin is feeling the heat of summer, or as he calls it, Body Dysmorphia Season. In a rare moment of vulnerability, he opens up about the struggle of connecting to his body in a world that won't stop looking. Meanwhile, Amanda returns with a major life update, packed with dilemmas. New house? New job? New levels of chaos? Check, check, and check. In Killer Facts, Trevin dives into the Bayeux Tapestry—a medieval embroidery depicting the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. That leads to the latest game round of Dong or Dagger?, because of course it does. Amanda shares a jaw-dropping fact from Ripley's Believe It or Not involving authentic vampire-killing kits—and maybe discovers a new merch opportunity for the show. For stories, Trevin travels to the unincorporated neighborhood of Silverthorne, Colorado, where one resident is being repeatedly targeted... with bags of dog poop. A petty crime? Yes. A whodunit? Absolutely. Call it a turder mystery. Then Amanda takes us to Joliet, Illinois, where a man named Clifton Williams gets himself into trouble over one unfortunate courtroom sound. Is Judge Daniel Rozak dishing out justice—or just making people afraid to breathe? This case is not a yawn-fest. Take a break from the heavy and get petty—because this week, we're placing you right in the middle of some truly criminal communities.
