The Hulu comedy, Dave, is a fictional story about the sensationalized rapper, Lil Dicky. The show look like many other comedies at first but is actually jam-packed with well-thought out jokes and plots. Dave is now streaming on Hulu and FXX.
In dieser Folge geht einer durch unsere böse Welt und such nach Licht in der Dunkelheit des Wahnsinns, er fragt sich – Ist die Hoffnung verloren? Gibt es nur noch Schmerz, Hass und Elend? Ja, so geht es einem manchmal und schon kommt der Refrain, der dann ja fragt: Was finden manche Leute so lustig an: Frieden, Liebe und Verständnis – What´s So Funny ´bout Peace, Love and Understanding – Ulrich Herlitz hatte die zum Gedenken an die Kreuzzugsprogrome des Jahres 1096 einen 7 Tage 1 Song Podcast zu machen, diese Anregung habe ich gerne aufgegriffen. Im Frühsommer 1096 kam es überall in Deutschland und daher auch in Köln und Umgebung zu Progromen. Mit dem Schlachtruf „Tod oder Taufe“ wurde losgezogen und Jagd auf Juden gemacht. Selbst die Zeitzeugen waren sich bewusst, dass es sich dabei um ein Massaker und grobes Unrecht seitens der Kreuzzügler gehandelt hatte. Daher sind „Peace, Love and Understanding“ so wichtig und eben nicht als „lustige“ Sache zur Seite zu schieben. Ganz schnell stecken wir dann in Gedankenlosigkeit fest, die wir gar nicht bemerken, denn Gedankenlosigkeit geht oft mit unserem Egoismus spazieren und wir verpassen dadurch ganz viel, da wir das Leben der anderen nicht so wirklich mitbekommen. „Peace, Love and Understanding“ umschreibt das sorgenlose Freiheitsgefühl - Ziel unseres Handels sollte sein, dass möglichst alle Menschen sagen können:"alles ist in Ordnung" – das meint Shalom – dies lässt unsere Gesichter hell strahlen und das ist doch ein schönes Ziel für unser Zusammenleben. Die Songtexte werden von Neil These aus New York gelesen, Ulrich Herlitz stellt ihn im Podcast vor Bitte besucht bei Facebook und Instagram die Seiten: @judentumgv @stolpersteinegv Foto: © Dan Burn-Forti Homepage: https://7tage1song.de Playlist Song und Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/20KHRuuW0YqS7ZyHUdlKO4?si=b6ea0b237af041ec Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/7tage1song/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pg/7tage1song/ Kontakt: post@7tage1song.de Link zum Song: https://songwhip.com/nick-lowe/whats-so-funny-bout-peace-love-and-understanding Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0M5tOXTC0lM8RVycUBQnjy?si=idKC-CFaRp2ZD992gvWvsQ

In this episode I discuss overcoming the death of a loved one and the role a messed up sense of humor plays in the healing process.
Many of us associate humor and hilarity with youth ministry, but sadly, many do not associate those with ministry because of hurtful experiences. Scripture often links laughter with joy and celebration, and it can certainly be used as a ministry tool. Comedian Bob Smiley talks with Jeff about his journey in the comedy world, some bizarre things people have hired him to do, why it's good for us to poke fun at ourselves, and how we can use comedy to both lighten and enlighten others. Click here to check out Bob's website.
Darcy Michael makes his sixth appearance on the program. The break-out star of the Halifax Comedy Festival explains Tik Tok to us, talks about his High School Sucked podcast, we discuss who'd make the best Jeopardy host, and the host promises to get a new computer.
This week, comedian and political commentator Andrew Heaton joins us to talk about his forthcoming book on Tribalism.

The best song nobody ever knew, except the one guy who had to know it, so he made it huge and unforgettable. (What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding, originally by Brinsley Schwarz, covered by Elvis Costello and the Attractions. Outro music is Cruel To Be Kind, by Nick Lowe.
Jacob Samuel has had a great year, Covid be damned. His album, Horse Power, was nominated for a Juno Award. We talk to him about it, jokes, Zoom, cats and dogs, and Larry Sanders. Plus we play a track from his album – it's legit funny.
Jackie Kashian has us in the palm of her hand in this episode. The former Wisconite comedian and host of two podcasts dorks out on The Dork Forest, extols the benefits of Zoom standup, talks of Kinison, Rickles, Burr and Bamford, and tells us where she got her optimism from.
The Velvet Fist and Professor Ramble discuss topics of note.
Delve into a comedian's brain to discover what makes people laugh -- and when the comic is also a neuroscientist, it's no joke! Dr. Ori Amir studies what goes on in the brain as jokes are born, and he's also learned how to “get out of his head” to write some pretty funny stuff. Be afraid: He is working on using artificial intelligence to come up with new puns to make us groan.
Andrew Tarvin is the world's first Humor Engineer teaching people how to get better results while having more fun. He has worked with thousands of people at 200+ organizations, including P&G, GE, and Microsoft. He is a best-selling author, has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and TEDx, and has delivered programs in 50 states, 18 countries, and 3 continents. In this episode, we discuss with Andrew the communication superpower that comes with embracing the funny, why humor at work is more about levity than laughs, what his biggest comedy bomb taught him, and how he decided to leave his stable career to embrace entrepreneurship.
Michael Teigen joins us from his cabin but it was the host's computer in civilization that wonked out for half the show. Still, we get unfiltered Teigen, which is always fun. He's an actor with 94 (count 'em... I did) imdb credits and a couple more coming soon. And he's a mainstay on the Vancouver improv scene. We talk about life without social media, William Shatner, Luke Perry, Bruno Kirby, and donating a kidney.
Jimmy Pardo lives up to his long-running podcast's name. The guy really is never not funny. In this episode, we relive his glory days doing community theatre, debate the term 'yacht rock', inform him on some great Canadian bands, draw a connection between Woody Allen and Chekov, discuss the proper way to hold a bass, and talk about his smart mouth in high school.
Sean Lecomber has been with us from his hotel room, the host's car, and now from the comfort of his home in Alberta. He doesn't care how you pronounce his name. The stay-at-home dad talks about what he has in common with Ricky Gervais, Derek Edwards, and Amy Schumer, and why he prefers doing a podcast to doing standup. And more, of course.
Peter Kelamis was last with us in 2010. We know him mostly as a standup comic but most of his work these days comes from acting. We talk about how Greek he is, Hallmark movies, voice acting, cosplay, Robin Williams, and Dane Cook.
Jon Dore becomes the first guest of 2021 (we're a little late getting started). And what a great guest he is. He speaks with us from his home in Juneau, Alaska. He's here to shill his new TV program called Humour Resources with Jon Dore on CBC, but we also talk about his job in a butcher shop, his best memory at the Ottawa Bluesfest, his similarities to Chris Elliott, and we relive an old tweet of his.

Todd Van Allen isn't above any pub in this episode. Todd is the host of one of the longest-running podcasts in the country, but we clear up that it isn't THE longest-running (ahem). We talk about butterflies, magic, cable access stardom, math, ICQ, voice-over work, and approaching celebrities.
Brian Aylward is big in Asia. But at 6-3 and 260 pounds, he's pretty big in all 28 countries he performed in. We speak to him from his home in Bangkok where he is convalescing from a scary motorcycle accident. The Newfoundlander and former Canadian Comedy Award winner has a new special, aptly titled Big in Asia, which he filmed in front of locals in Mongolia.
Dylan Rhymer, the old man of comedy, returns to the program in his 25th year of doing standup – even if he didn't do a whole lot of standup this past year. But he's okay with that. In this episode, we talk about Friday the 13th, watching movies all day and night for charity and fun, various other scary movies, his uncanny hack impersonations, and his State of the Week satire site. This episode is with 50 percent less Sam Tonning!
Season 2 of What's So Funny! is coming very soon and, let me tell you, we are talking about some great comedians! With the same great hosts! And all-new comedy albums! But, this time around it's just all us all the time. Coming Nov. 10 our season includes Phyllis Diller, Freddie Prinze, Redd Foxx, and many more!
Kenny Robinson is on the road again, bringing his special brand of blue comedy to the socially-distanced comedy clubs around the country. Yet he very thoughtfully censored himself in this episode. We talked about his early years in Chicago and Winnipeg, his brushes with racism in Canada, thoughts on a young Arsenio Hall, cheap millionaires trying to save eight bucks., and working swingers conventions.
Stuart Jones, the pride of Rutland, joins us for his second go-round on the program. We talk all about his new album, "By The Slice" on 604 Records. We also get into universities vs colleges, Christopher Cross, and tattoos.
Blaine Thurier returns to the show after a nine year absence. He reveals the news (to us) that he's no longer in New Pornographers after a nice two-decade run. We also talk about his evangelical background, classical music, time machines, and Teen Lust, among other things.
*w/apologies to Elvis Costello Disenchantment and dispassion as clear knowing. Disenchantment in the sense of breaking the spell. Dispassion as not getting "hooked" by craving or aversion, not even craving to "set things right," not even aversion to delusion.

Mike Wilmot returns 13 years after his first appearance on the show. It's a new Uncle Mike now. He's lost a ton of weight, but is as filthy (and funny) as ever. We had a lot of fun on this one talking about lightweight drinkers, industry showcases, fears, Pete Tong, and, of course, his father's penis. Recorded September 22, 2020.
Bob Saget is a prince of a man. He took time out of his busy (no really!) quarantine to talk to us. We even made him late for his own podcast, "Bob Saget's Here For You." In this episode, we talk about him forgetting me but remembered a bad review he got in 1978 from the Toronto Star – and the reviewer's name. We also chat about his penis, he tells stories of Richard and Rodney (Pryor and Dangerfield, natch), and my brush with greatness: Mrs. Miller.
Have you ever heard the term, "Laughter is the best medicine." Well, I am here to add validity to that statement. We are allowed to laugh even during the tough times. In fact, laughter is what helps us make it through the painful moments. In this episode I share with you a study that was done about the effects of laughter on blood sugar, some silly moments from my past, a dad joke, and a funny skill your Alexa can do. The book referenced during this episode is, Breaking The Habit of Being Yourself by Joe Dispenza: https://amzn.to/2YW4JrO

Ian Bagg last joined us a decade ago, when he was deported from America and had to slum it in his home province for six weeks. He's back safely ensconced in Southern California . In this episode we talk about his early days in New York (and getting animated on Dr. Katz) and even earlier days getting started in Vancouver. Also doing crowd work at drive-in shows and abusing cyclists at beach shows. Recorded August 20, 2020.
Jacob Blake, Jacob Blake, Jacob Blake.
Shirley Gnome marks her fifth appearance on What's So Funny?, but first remotely. The songstress has always played for us in studio in the past, and she doesn't disappoint this time, either, offering us two live songs. And we talk about depression, hecklers, Nickelback, and cunnilingus.

Jeremy Hotz has been miserable on-stage for 30 years, and miserable off-stage for his whole life. But boy is that misery funny. Hotz, who's been living in LA the last 23 years, is one of Canada's best standup comics. In this episode, we talk about being a curmudgeon, murder, and Ernest Shackleton.

bbno$ is a rapper, not a comedian. But his songs are pretty funny. They make you want to open up TikTok, point your camera at yourself, and start dancing. Millions do that, anyway. Some of us have no rhythm. But we have a fun chat with Baby No Money, aka Alex, aka Gucci.
Derek Edwards comes out of hiding to join us in the Isolation Studios of What's So Funny? Edwards barely has electricity, but we got a hold of him in his bunker and it was a delight talking to him again. We discussed great Canadian televised fare such as Open Mike with Mike Bullard (he was the first comic to appear on that late night talk show), Red Green (he played the funeral director on a few episodes), and Corner Gas (he "tripped down the stairs" in the audition and never appeared). And we reminisced about the disastrous Trailer Park Boys theatre show he was a part of in 2004.
Sugar Sammy is back, all the way from Montreal. It's his fifth visit with us. It's nice to see that as big as he is now, he's still got time for us. We talk about him being the French Simon Cowell, and how that prevents him from taking the Métro in Paris anymore. And he tells us about Les Dragons, his ball hockey team that never got to play anyone. It's always a good time with Sammy. Recorded July 6, 2020.
Dave Hill is a comedian, author, musician, actor, podcaster and part-Canadian. A very small part, granted, but his intentions are good. In his latest book, Parking the Moose, the Cleveland-born, New York-residing Hill travels across the frozen tundra to better learn about his grandfather's people. He quizzes me on the book and I quiz him on some important Canadian trivia. He also discusses Norway's darlings Witch Taint. Recorded July 5, 2020.
Ron James brings his blistering vocabulary and arcane Bonanza references to What's So Funny? for the first time. The quintessentially Canadian comedic icon regales us with his thoughts on the role of comedian in culture and talks about his bittersweet TV experience. It's an enlightening conversation with a real wordsmith.
Ellyn Marie Marsh must never sleep. How the Broadway star/podcast host/cabaret diva/trivia host/voice teacher/single mom had time to sit with us for an hour, I'll never know. But we're glad she did. We talk about her sporting youth, true crime obsession, being fired from her singing waiter job, and she fires a few trivia stumpers at us for good measure. Check out her newish podcast Obsessed With: Disappeared. Recorded June 23, 2020.
