Mr. Media Interviews By Bob Andelman

Today's Guest: Ritch Shydner, comedianRITCH SHYDNER podcast excerpt: "A podcast is, when you're not really in show business, it's good make-believe that you're in show business. I've seen guys post, 'I'm gonna go tape a show today.' I go, 'What show?' 'It's a podcast.' 'That's not a show!' Podcasting is like a comedic circle jerk. 'You come on my show; I'll go on your show, we'll make believe we're in show business.'"Key interview moments:• 4:35 Ritch Shydner shares his views on (most, not all) comedians who do podcasts;• 23:30 That time a young Shydner opened for The Ramones;• 37:40 That other time when an inebriated Shydner walked up to Morey Amsterdam and got schooled by the legendary comic and "Dick Van Dyke Show" co-star on how much the up-and-coming standup didn't know about the history of comedy in America.Subscribe to Mr. Media for FREE on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=MrMediaRadioFor more interviews like this one: http://www.MrMedia.com What is Mr. Media® Interviews?
