Here’s the audio from my roast of comedian Casey Feigh last week. Unless you know Casey or his stoner friends, this probably won’t be of interest. It was great fun though.
Concrete City in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania.
Concrete City is a former town of mine-workers. The Concrete City was an early example of International Style architecture in the United States, built as company housing in 1911 for select employees of the Delaware, Lackawana and Western Railroad’s coal division in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania. It was eventually taken over by the Glen Alden Coal Company who, uninterested in paying for required improvements and unable to demolish it due to its robust construction, abandoned the property in 1924. It stands to this day, albeit in extreme disrepair. Currently, the site is commonly used by recreational paintball players for staged games.
In 1998, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission declared Concrete City an historic site. You can also visit this website about Concrete City.

Holy crap, this is right by where I grew up! I’ve never even heard of it before now.

Jen Kirkman - comedian: How To Talk To The Comedian In Your Life
I wrote this over a year ago when I was the guest-blogger for a week on . I figured it’s worth a re-print if you are a comedian or have one in your life.
How To Talk To The Comedian In Your Life - By Jen Kirkman
We are coming up on the most popular travel week of the year….
I auditioned for Last Comic Standing today. It went well. I moved onto the showcase, which was in front of a sold-out crowd at the Hollywood Improv. They redid the whole room and it looked amazing. I didn’t move on, but I was really happy with my set. Overall I had a blast, but the roller coaster of getting your hopes up high and then having them dashed is the worst.
I’m so sick of goodbyes. RIP Mark Linkous.
I imagine the person who wrote this has a lot of “energy”.
Chris Fairbanks new comedy album "Fairbanks."
Click the link to download it for a mere 9.99. It’s a great recording of a great show in San Francisco. I listened to it this afternoon and Chris called me in the middle of it. A real Twilight Zone moment. Anyway, it’s hilarious and fun from beginning to end.
Get it! Get it now!
Downloaded and listening to it now. Chris Fairbanks is one of my favorite comics, period. I can’t recommend him and the good people at Rooftop Comedy enough.
Attention Video Producers,
Does anyone want this? It’s a BeachTek XLR adapter. It lets you plug in high quality mics with XLR jacks into a smaller jack. Perfect for plugging in high quality audio gear into a consumer cam. Only thing is it’s broken. Not sure if it’s an easy or cheap fix, but the number to the manufacturer is on the casing. I was going to recycle it but then I thought that someone mechanically inclined might want it. Since it’s broken, I’m giving it away for free. If you want, drop me some font at:

“bros” would walk up to me and say, “This (points to my mustache). Fucking awesome bro.” The exact people who I didn’t want to like it, loved it.
I am a standup comedian in LA and
I want to make you giggle.
Let's talk forever!
