Freedom Of Information & Comedic Exhilaration

Today in honour of April Fools, we are taking a break from hills and climbing to the peaks of comedy instead with the hilarious Curtis Raye. Curtis is a comedian from New Jersey and host of "A Comedy & Bluegrass Show About Strange Public Records." In 2020, he created "The Lonely Jukebox" show, where he used an app to play songs on a jukebox inside an empty pub that was shuttered by Covid. Nobody heard the songs--but guests on the show included Cecily Strong, Richard Kind, and Jimmy Pardo. He performs at the UCB Theater in NY and LA and Washington Improv Theater in DC.Curtis's upcoming shows will be listed here. Learn more about his public records comedy show here. He writes songs and acts in videos here.To help the podcast hike up more hills, comedic or otherwise, please be in touch with ideas of who I should be inviting on the podcast, and support me with some waterproof gear.
