May 8, 2005: Dark Days at the Studio

This was another Sunday night show at the Studio — always a lot of fun, and what a way to wrap up a weekend. This clip also marks the start of what I call my ‘dark period’. Not in terms of content — I’m still telling the same wacky interview tales and three-minute dick jokes, naturally. But the video from the Studio’s DVR — or my editing software, one or the other — seems to have sucked most of the light out of this clip, and the next few, as well.

What’s that you said? ‘Sort of like how your jokes suck the funny out of the room’? Oh, that’s good. Nice talk. You should write that one down.

Now hush up and watch the clip. You can fling your zingers on your own time, smartass.
