I've known comedian Ariel Elias since the early days of both our careers, and she was one of my first guests when I started podcasting. Last year, at a comedy show in New Jersey a heckler threw a beer during her performance and her cool response went viral, eventually leading to a spot on the Jimmy Kimmel show and opening a ton of opportunities. Sarah and I met up with her between shows during the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal and it was so good to catch up!

New Orleans with COMEDIANS Ariel Elias & Adel Alizadeh

New Orleans with COMEDIANS Ariel Elias & Adel Alizadeh

Comedian Ariel Elias has been in the news recently, after her awesome way of dealing with a heckler at a comedy show in New Jersey. Someone threw a beer at her and she calmly picked it up and chugged it, eventually catching the attention of Jimmy Kimmel and landing her a spot on his show. The whole thing made me think of a time, years ago, when we recorded a podcast in New Orleans for my first On the Road radio show. When I first met Ariel, she was dating fellow comedian Adel Alizadeh and I was interested in their relationship dynamics as two comics making it work. She was cool back then, and apparently just as cool now.

Recorded in 2012

Now, after her passing he honors her memory with humor performing in clubs on both sides of the border. My friend Lea Patrick joins me as co-host for this very funny, and very touching interview.

After taking my mother on tour with me for two weeks in 2012, my father joined us in Charleston, South Carolina. We had a great time and they shared several stories of my childhood that I was unaware of. As an obsessive autobiographer, I felt I simply had to record them for posterity.

Tacoma with COMEDIANS Jonas Barnes, Cory Michaelis, & Mike Brody

In 2012 when I first started touring, I found myself in Tacoma, Washington and stumbled on to the newly established Tacoma Comedy Club. It was a night with headliner Mike Brody from Minnesota, featuring Cory Michaelis and host Jonas Barnes. All three were great and afterwards they were nice enough to talk to me for my new radio show. Although they aired out of order, this was only my second interview and episode of On The Road. 

Revisiting this episode in 2021, I love hearing how we talked about the specifics of comedy life and touring. I was just getting my feet wet in this industry. In the decade since, I haven't crossed paths with any these guys again but according to social media all three are still performing. The Tacoma Comedy Club has endured and remains open and as I write this Cory Michaelis is scheduled to headline there tomorrow. Ironic that he is the only one I did not get a photo with.

Comedy is timeless.

Dallas with COMEDIAN Mysia Chabert

The first episode of 2021! After spending the greater portion of 2020 in Dallas, Texas waiting out the pandemic Dr Brian King returns to bring in the amazingly talented comedian Mysia Chabert. 

Mysia got her start at an open mic night in Puerto Rico, and almost immediately found herself producing shows and touring with the legendary Puerto Rican comedian Chente Ydrach. From bar rooms to sold out shows, she killed it nightly as she rose to prominence in the Spanish-language comedy scene. After several years, she met comedians Diego Morales, Fernando "Panda" Chacon, and Mike Zaragosa collectively known as the "Vatos Chistosos" and with encouragement from Diego burst into the English comedy scene as someone you need to pay attention to. 

Tango dancer Sarah Bollinger joins Dr Brian in this interview, as does their daughter Alyssa.
