    The most I've listened to Alex Jones. He is batshit, but this is entertaining

    So I totally missed the whole Joe Rogan experience. There is a Comedy Store doc on Showtime that I have been watching. Turns out Joe was a big deal there in the 90's which I guess was also his reality TV era. I remember he ate bugs or something

    At any rate the Comedy Store banned him for 7 years. Turns out his podcast changed the game forever. Comedians stopped wanting to be on TV shows and started to want to be on his podcast. He became Johnny Carson. Then everyone wanted a pod cast and the good ones make a shit ton of money. Who knew?

    iDawg and I beat Joe to the podcast game by about a year. What could have been

    The Bob Saget episode talks alot about his experience with the Comedy Store and relationship with Mitzi, the owner/founder (Pauley Shore's mom). She brought in someone to manager to place and JR got into it with them. Great episode - Saget is a piece of work.

    Rogan is resurrecting the Comedy Store in Austin as I understand it. He talked about it with Colin Quinn last week.

    Brooke Burns on Fear Factor was damned near the perfect woman.

    Rogan got into it with Carlos Mencia. Called him a joke thief. According to the doc, after the glory years of comedy in the 80's the Store took a turn for the worse as certain big timers would hog the stage for hours. Customers stopped showing up. Joe brought them back

    Yup - that was about it. Mencia was a joke stealer - Saget confirmed. Rogan got pretty worked up on the podcast episode.

    Saget just cracks me up regardless. So different than his Full House character.
