And speaking of Sid Caesar…
Today (Wednesday), Stu Shostak devotes his show to a tribute and discussion of the late, great comic genius. Tune in and hear people who knew and worked with Sid discussing the incredible talent and the man who had that talent. He was an interesting, sometimes troubled individual but no one ever did sketch comedy better. You'll hear a few remarks from Sid's old co-star Carl Reiner and more from the fine comedienne Geri Jewell, the superb writing team of Rocky and Irma Kalish, and from me. I think I'm on last. We all worked with Sid and I suspect we have different perspectives on who he was, the nature of his special genius and the answer to that most painful question, "Why aren't you on TV more often?" Oughta be a good one.
Stu's Show can be heard live (almost) every Wednesday at the Stu's Show website and you can listen for free there. Webcasts start at 4 PM Pacific Time, 7 PM Eastern and other times in other climes. They run a minimum of two hours and sometimes go to three or beyond. Betcha this one makes it to at least three.
Shortly after a show ends, it's available for downloading from the Archives on that site. Downloads are a paltry 99 cents each and you can get four for the price of three.
