This podcast releases on Mondays - the least favorite day of one tubby beloved feline named Garfield. As his popularity began to take off in the early 1980s creator Jim Davis took a page from his comics colleage Charles Schultz and created a Halloween special to showcase, Garfield, Odie, Jon, and the smooth vocals of Lou Rawls. We're joined by comedian Rich Baker (www.daretofailimprov.com) and writer/comedian/filmmaker Joey Clift (Spirit Rangers, Pow!) to trick and/or treat along with this perennial holiday classic.

Farm animals. Cavemen. Aliens. Bugs. These are the canvas on which Gary Larson's The Far Side painted a uniquely heady blend of the mundane and the bizarre. Comedian Joey Clift (@joeytainment) joins us to revisit this highly successful comic strip and how it forever changed the way we look at comedy and ourselves.
