Hello! And welcome back to The Dana Gould Hour Podcast. It's the dog days of summer and what better way to work through those hot summer days then to walk around in the heat holding a sign that says you want a fair deal from the people who work in the buildings behind you even though they're all on Martha's Vineyard at the moment?  Two fantastic guests today, my lordy. First off, a guy that I cannot believe that I know. He is in my favorite movie of all time, he has appeared repeatedly in one of my favorite TV shows, and he lived in my favorite city during one of its most fascinating periods. From Planet Of The Apes, and Dragnet and so much more, actor Lou Wagner is here.  Also, comedian and author Wayne Federman is here. In addition to being a fine comedian in his own right, Wayne is a comedy historian. He is the author of a terrific book called The History Of Stand Up, from Mark Twain To Dave Chapelle and he was also the producer of the fabulous two part HBO documentary George Carlin's American Dream, directed by Judd Appatow and Michael Bonfiglio, Wayne Federman is here.  True Tales From Weirdsville takes a deep dive into a famous L.A. murder that occurred right down the street from good old Falcon's lair Recording Studio, of course this was long before I got here, but our guest Lou Wagner was here. And although he's all alibi's up he's got some stories to share, so we'll give you some background to boot. 

George Carlin had a comedy career that spanned half a century, and his take on the US remains relevant more than a decade after his death in 2008. The new HBO documentary George Carlin's American Dream tells Carlin's story as he evolved from a clean-cut comic in the 1950s into the edgy critic who remains one of the most influential comedians of all time. In this episode, Michael Bonfiglio, who directed the film (along with Judd Apatow) and Kliph Nesteroff, a historian of comedy who is featured in the film, join Bob & Ben for a conversation about the life and times of George Carlin.

Had an absolute blast talking to Michael Bonfiglio on this episode of Dystopia Tonight! We talked about his creative beginnings, what drove him into film making, his passion for storytelling and how he chooses to look at his subjects to make an honest story about their lives, working with Judd Apatow on May It Last: a Portrait of the Avett Brothers which one awards at SXSW, his turn as producer on the Gary Shandling Documentary and as of recently the Emmy Award Winning Documentary he co-directed with Judd, “George Carlin's American Dream.” Enjoy!

George Carlin wasn't just a comedian, he was one of the great American artists of the later half of the 20th-Century, and he was shaped by and interacted with the great events of his day with intelligence, wit, and an ever-adapting nature.  That's what co-director Michael Bonfiglio (with Judd Apatow) of  “George Carlin's American Dream” explains when he sat down with Mike. Bonfiglio's (producer of “Paradise Lost 2 & 3”, “Some Kind of Monster” & “The Zen Diaries of Gary Shandling”) film traces the “straight” comic of the 60s, the more personal and edgy comic of the 70's that we all know, and even the darker–but equally important, the film argues–comic of the 80s and 90s.  Michael and Mike discuss the roots of Carlin's comedy in his Catholic school childhood in Manhattan, the birth of his comedy career in Los Angeles, and the cocaine-fueled 70s.  Throughout, his wife Brenda and daughter Kelly stood by him, and despite his solitary nature, his comedy cohort inspired and challenged him.  “George Carlin's American Dream” is now playing on HBO.   Hidden Gem:  The Velvet Queen   Follow on twitter: @mbonfiglio2000 @topdocspod

After Tuesday's mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, that took the lives of 19 students and two educators, LA's Rabbi Steve Leder explains why there's still hope in this dark moment.  Democrats tend to push for gun restrictions and assault rifle bans, while Republicans say it's better to boost school security and/or arm teachers. What would effectively curb mass shootings? George Carlin was known for his brash humor and political commentary. He's the subject of Judd Apatow and Michael Bonfiglio's new HBO film.

Carlin was one of the most famous comics to emerge from the '60s counterculture.

From National Geographic Documentary Films, From the Ashes captures Americans in communities across the country as they wrestle with the legacy of the coal industry and what its future should be under the Trump Administration. From Appalachia to the West's Powder River Basin, the film goes beyond the rhetoric of the “war on coal” to present compelling and often heartbreaking stories about what's at stake for our economy, health, and climate. The film invites audiences to learn more about an industry on the edge and what it means for their lives.

In our first episode of the second season of The Road to Now, Bob and Ben speak with Dr. Chuck Keeney about the history of coal in the United States. Chuck explains the ways that the coal industry has shaped not only the physical landscape of mining towns, but also, through lobbying efforts and information campaigns, the way we understand our nation's history. Chuck is uniquely qualified to tell the story of coal; not only does he hold a PhD in history from West Virginia University, he is the great-grandson of coal miner and labor organizer Frank Keeney, who was part of The Battle of Blair Mountain. (The Battle of Blair Mountain was a 1921 shootout between coal miners and the coal companies that was the largest domestic insurrection since the Civil War. If you want to know more, it's all in this episode.) Chuck Keeney was featured in the 2017 NatGeo Documentary From the Ashes, which was directed by Michael Bonfiglio. We highly recommend you take the time to watch this outstanding documentary! For more on The Road to Now, please visit our website: www.theroadtonow.com.
