Yo,

There's a clip at the cc tough crowd of the episode with, if I'm not mistaken, Mr. Mendrinos.

The "gay marriages, round 2" clip.

jane_haze,

Yep that's the show, me, and the clip. I have to tell you guys, I've done a bunch of TV, and by far I'm getting more calls and gigs off of this one than I've gotten off of any other one. I hardly said anything the whole show, but I booked a VO, a comedy festival, and a bunch of gigs off of it.

I spoke to someone about it, and they said even though I didn't say a lot, everything was funny, and it seemed even more intelligent when compared to the screamers on the show.

The closing question was especially effective, and I've been contacted by sooooo many political shows to write material or provide commentary.

Goes to show that an act isn't neccessarailly the best person to map out his career. I didn't even try to get the show. My wife and Colin were the ones who pressed me to do it. I thought it wouldn't show me in a good light, turns out it probably will move the stand-up side of my career more than anything I've done in a while.

BTW -- My wife, Leighann Lord, will be doing the show 4/27.

Jim Mendrinos,
Congrats!!Yeah that last point was really a winner!!My family in South Carolina thanks you!!

Jim Mendrinos,
Hi I watched the clip Jen told us about it was great!!. I currently live in Sydney Australia and I am doing my research now to get into the American scene. Can you give me any advice on how to approach Colin Quinn or Comedy Central to get on that show? Is there anything in particular they are looking for. I am doing stand up here in Australia and I have 2 rooms under my belt right now. I am getting better everyday. Sydney is my Wisconsin, which means I am honing the craft here before I jump into the sea of New York Comedy. Any help would be appreciated. And again well done.

Jim Mendrinos,

I was kinda surprised when I saw it. You know I'm in Germany, so I don't get the show on tv here. So, I was looking back through the recent clips for something to do. Didn't see anyone I knew, and then I was like...wait...I do know [/i]that[/i] guy. He's the one on the Richard Pryor board! Then I went to your website to contrast and compare.

Hey, after the show, what is the atmosphere? Do people want to kill each other, or is everything peachy and friendly?

I hope you don't mind the bombardment of questions now.

Someone should've culled the load mouthed bitch with the sky tit's.

I can see why there were clouds on her chest - cause her head was in the fucking stratosphere!!!
