Mitch Hedberg

He died of a heroine overdose in 2005. But if you ever get a chance to see his stuff on TV or the radio, stop and take a listen. Dude is funny.

Here are some of his quotes:

Quote:
I love blackjack. But I'm not addicted to gambling. I'm addicted to sitting in a semi circle.
Mitch Hedberg


An escalator can never break: it can only become stairs. You should never see an Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order sign, just Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience.
Mitch Hedberg

Bologna is a deli meat for people with eyes.
Mitch Hedberg

Chicago is known as the Windy City, and Montana is called the Big Sky State, so I think that we should somehow combine the two to create the ultimate kite-flying experience.
Mitch Hedberg

I like refried beans. That's why I wanna try fried beans, because maybe they're just as good and we're just wasting time. You don't have to fry them again after all.
Mitch Hedberg

The "is Mitch Hedberg funny thing" has been debated numerous times on this site. I am an the side of him being funny although comedy central has ran his stuff to death. I am just sad he isn't around to do new material.

Mitch Hedberg is definitly funny. One of the best.

I'm going to see Frank Caliendo when he comes to town. Saw Larry the Cable Guy earlier this summer, he was funnier than I expected. Saw George Carlin twice, once in Vegas, he was funny. The next time was in West Palm Beach and he sucked. All he talked about was suicide.

I am over the whole Caliendo schtick personally. Do you ever watch some of the lessor known comedians on the Comedy Central Presents show? There are some really funny ones on there.

I'm hoping Caliendo does some stand-up and not just imperssonations. Good reason to drink beer, so I'm going.

Definitly all over the CC Prsents and xl XM Comedy Channel. But I am horrible with names though. Hedberg is on XM radio right now doing his A.D.D. gimmick.

Same here. I will see a comedian and say. I need to remember that joke or I need to remember his name but never do. I can't even remember the color of my wife's eyes let alone a comedian that I am watching at 11pm.

FYI

Quote:
Comedy Central Records announced the release of the first album of new Mitch Hedberg material on June 10th 2008. The release date of the CD, titled "Do You Believe in Gosh?" has been slated for September 9th, 2008, and is reported by Punchline Magazine to contain material from a show performed in January 2005, as well as additional "non stand-up material."

Of the list, Carlin, Pryor, and Cosby are the only three that I really like. Lewis Black has his moments, but I wouldn't consider him a great.

Some of my other favorites are...

Bill Hicks
Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks (good seperately, fantastic together)
David Cross
Patton Oswalt
Sarah Silverman
Louis C.K.
Joe Rogan
Jim Gaffigan
Mike Birbiglia

I'm sure I'm missing some of my favorites, but this is just off the top of my head.

I've been really disappointed with the XM comedy channels for the past year or so. They used to play a ton of good, unknown comics. Now, 150 (which used to play all kinds of comedy) and 151 (which used to play clean comedy, like Cosby, Reiner/Brooks, etc.) both play blue collar crap almost all day. 153 has it's moments, but they tend to play pretty much the same 3-4 comedians almost all day, as everytime I turn it on, it's seems to be Kathleen Madigan. 154 is good for hearing comedians that you are already familiar with. Most of the stuff that they play on there are things that I've heard a million times already...but it's unfortunately the best comedy channel they currently have.

I'm hoping that when the XM/Sirius merger happens, some of the Sirius comedy channels will be better. Comedy was the main reason I originally went to sat radio, but I rarely listen anymore.

Yea, I know. If I have to hear Foxworthy one more time....
