Description

Jay’s stadium tour took him to “Music City” this week, so we dust off a SUS Classic episode with our friend and fantastic comedian Harry J. Riley. Why does this special resonate with Harry? (1:40 ) Social commentary in 2000s comedy (9:00 ). How to make social commentary funny (14:30 ). Favorite jokes (16:45 ). The parallels between standup comedy and horror (27:45 ). The unfinished joke (32:30 ). Ghost stories and faith (40:00 ). Harry believes “The Rule of Three” is specific to Judeo-Christian societies (47:30 ). Rock’s 1999 black leather ‘fit gets a review from Colton Drake: Fashionisto (51:30 ). Did Chris Rock invent the mic drop (55:10 ). Harry admits he’s a joke thief (58:35 ). Next Week: Matt McCusker - "A Humble Offering".
