Don't forget to post appearances on the new Comics On the Air calendar (http://aspecialthing.com/forum/calendar.php?c=2), which will display the events on the forum home and on the new site homepage (http://aspecialthing.com/index.php). I'll start it off.

With the new calendar/notices, we might not need this thread, but I'm starting it mostly to notify others of the aforementioned features.

[Liezl]

an audio of jimmy pardo's comedy central special is playing right now on www.comedypipe.com

which is also one of the comedy radio channels on itunes.

[Jouster]

My post about the new Comics on the Air calendar seemed to get buried without much notice, so I'm bumping it and merging it into hound's thread.

[Liezl]

I didnt even realize there was a comics on the air calendar, and even when I got to the calendar, it took a bit to figure out how to toggle between calendars...

maybe the header for the calendar can also have a link to the Comics on Air calendar you can click on:

Calendar / Comics on the Air

[Jouster]

Added a link to both on the navbar - how's that?

[Liezl]

that works too.. thanks

[Matt Braunger]

Hannibal Burress and I will be on Comedy Central's "Live at Gotham" this Friday the 25th at 10:00.

Or wait, are we not supposed to put up our own? Whoops.

[andrearunge]

Robert Smigel will be on Fresh Air 7/25

[billynord]

Robert Smigel will be on Fresh Air 7/25

As well as Don Rickles!

[Liezl]

Triumph will be on Conan tonight with his coverage of Comicon.

[Cameron]

Triumph will be on Conan tonight

I just got really excited and was wondering what song they would play...

with his coverage of Comicon.

until I saw this and realized my mistake.

[darrylduffy]

from Mike Birbiglia's newsletter:

All weekend I can be heard on "This American Life" - which is one of my favorite radio shows of all time. It's a really cool episode called "Fear of Sleep."

[frogmann]

Matt Besser and two of the guys from "Whitest Kids U Know" are on the new episode of Adult Swim's "Fat Guy Stuck in Internet" airing tomorrow night. Is anyone else kinda digging this show besides me?

[jenkirkman]

Edited for lack of information. More later!

[priceyeah]

This may not quite qualify for this thread and yet it doesn't merit its own thread and I figure people would still want to know about it.

HBO-Comedy is showing "Heartbeeps" right this minute. I've never seen it on cable that I can remember. Since HBO tends to play things more than once, consider this an alert to check your listings to set your TiVo/DVR to catch the only feature film ever to star Andy Kaufman.

[albino sunburn]

A nice little <a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=93890833#share">feature</a> on NPR's All Things Considered with Matt Kirshen on the 2012 Olympics in London.

[rabbitandox]

Brian Regan is on Letterman Friday.

[Jouster]

Andy Daly is on Chelsea Lately tonight.

[dan telfer]

Kumail Nanjiani (AKA Kumail Ali) is on SNL tonight.

[darrylduffy]

not sure if its a rerun, but Patton Oswalt on Conan tonight.

[jon]

I just saw that Chris Rock is on Charlie Rose tonight (PBS, 11 Eastern).

[Jouster]

Use the On the Air Calendar (http://aspecialthing.com/forum/calendar.php?c=2)!

[jon]

...and it got bumped so they could talk about the economy. I guess that's important.

[conundrum]

Louis CK is going to be on Conan tonight

[isoS]

Natasha Leggero on Leno Monday nite

[darrylduffy]

late for most of us, but Paul F. Tompkins 'Driven to Drink' on HBO at 12:45 this morning. (2 hours from now)

[Scammy Davis Boogah Jr.]

I watched this for the first time a few nights ago on HBO Comedy, and I have to say, it's one of the best 1/2 hour comedy specials I've ever seen. This thing is from nearly 10 years ago, and the guy was already a total genius.

Four (Maybe 5) Guinesses in less than 1/2 hour...

Nice job.

[Jouster]

Four.

[Scammy Davis Boogah Jr.]

Then I take it all back.

[darrylduffy]

hahaha.

also, David Cross' 'The Pride is Back' on HBOCM (i dont know what these mean) Thursday at 7pm.

[Jouster]

Natasha Leggero on Leno Monday nite

She killed.

[Itslikeimsayin]

She killed.

Yes, this was outstanding!

[rabbitandox]

Sarah Silverman will be on Keith Olbermann in a few hours.

[darrylduffy]

mike birbiglia on conan friday night (10/17).

[Jouster]

Use the On the Air Calendar (http://aspecialthing.com/forum/calendar.php?c=2)!
Seriously. You put it there, it shows up at the bottom of the forum page and on the portal page. What could be greater?

[darrylduffy]

i tried, but it ended up posting 3 times cause i didnt know what day to put it on since 12:30 friday is saturday etc etc

[Jouster]

Conan (and Kimmel and Ferguson), though they air after midnight, would still go on the previous day (in this case, Friday).

[crimestick]

Sarah Silverman on Letterman last night was very awkward, then very entertaining.

[ReverendMediocre]

Caught Jimmy Pardo on Bob & Tom's new television program tonight in passing. Had some great bits involving air bass, totally blows Wil Arnett's air-bass bit away, since he goes further then just the Law & Order theme and plays it up high like a gentleman.

[KeithTalent]

Dude, no one should ever play the bass like a gentleman.

Wish I'd caught that though. Coming across unexpected Pardo is always a delight.

[strangeinterlude]

Late notice, but Regan will be on Conan tonight.

[KevinLee]

I've been DVR'ing the Bob and Tom Tv show and it really is a delight to finally be able to put the guys faces to their voices. The Bill Burr interview was a riot.

I live in Indianpolis where they broadcast from and I was wondering how far the TV show is reaching. Where are you all watching the show from?

[Shane]

ohio, but its on wgn superstation for me, so I assume everyone who has that will have it.

[jon]

Nov. 28: Detroit Octane on Late Night with Conan O'Brien

(Yes, Jouster, it's on the calendar.)

[jenkirkman]

I will be on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (doing stand-up) on Wednesday Nov 26th - 12:30 a.m.-1:30 a.m. (I suppose technically that is Thursday morning.)

[davidlidsky]

Great job, Jen! Really funny and a treat for us East Coasters to see you perform. Happy Thanksgiving.

[Ivan]

Youtube picks the oddest stills.

[priceyeah]

I don't know if this is old news, but LCK was on Conan recently and goddamn, he was funny (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS9TbJpuRuA).

[jon]

Paul F. Tompkins on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, this Thursday.

[Shane]

Thank you for that, jon. Tivo is now set.

Merry Christmas to all of us!

[sparkiepop]

Braunger bump!

[pauliophonic]

Great job, Matt! Nailed it!

[Manboobs Crackerbag]

Re: Braunger

That may have been one of the best stand-up performances I've seen in a while. This is the reason I watch stand-up. I hope he gets a trillion new fans from this performance.

[sparkiepop]

Matt consistently destroys whenever he performs. Totally proud of and happy for him.

[CaptainBreakfast]

Anyone know where to find a video of that performance?
