It’s the first of my weekly show Going Steady with Zach Broussard and Zachary Sims. I want people to enjoy it! And I want them to be you!

Tonight we have…

JARED LOGAN

JESSE POPP

DAVID COPE

They are all so, so funny, which is much better than so-so funny.

Thanks to everyone for coming to the show Saturday night. It was a grand ole time! We sold off some of my old roommate’s stuff, learned how to make French Bread Nachos and said good bye to one of the all time greats.

Thanks to Jon Clarke, Brent James Sullivan, Molly Knefel and Zachary Sims!

Next show is in Brighton, Massachusetts at Castlebar on June 5th. Check back like right here at this spot on the internet for more information aka teasers and stuff.

I hope you had a good time. We’ll have clips from the first three shows to come.

One thing Dan and I like to do a lot is make silly faces. Here are some old ones:

Yesterday we got a little high and grabbed some food at Betsy’s Pancake House. Betsy died a few years ago, but not for her pancake recipe. Foolish murderers not knowing what’s really valuable. The place was packed though, because everyone else seems to know the value of these pancakes. It took forever for anyone to take our order, but we were in no rush so we played Clambake. I got third. It was a travesty. The meal was unbelievable. The coffee was perfect, which right there is the best meal. You could give me two uncooked eggs and a rotten orange to eat, but if the coffee is perfect I’ll tip 20%. My favorite part of the meal was when Matt ordered.

Waitress: Sorry that took so long.
Matt: Well, we have a lot of questions.
(Waitress groans and takes a seat)
Matt: The pecan pancakes-
Waitress: Pe-can? It’s pe-kahn. Y’all ain’t from here, are you?
Erin: We are.
(Points to me and Matt)
Erin: They’re not.
Waitress: Where you from?
Matt: New Jersey. I’m sorry.
Waitress: Don’t be sorry.
Matt: The pecan pancakes, does that have sugar and cinnamon on top?
Waitress: No, there’s cinnamon in the batter.
Matt: Okay. What are Old Fashioned pancakes?
Waitress: It’s a stack of good sized pancakes.
Matt: Okay, I’ll have pigs in a blanket.

He put her through the ringer.

We went uptown to meet up with Zachary Sims, Neal Stastny, the Henehans and some other Mardi Gras enthusiasts. We danced, we ate roasted pig, we drank beer and champagne and we tried to catch beads, somewhat in vain on this night. Although! The first float had none other than Val Kilmer on it throwing doubloons with his face imprinted on it. I made a sweet snag of one so I now have in my possession a purple coin with the real Batman’s face imprinted on it.

The parade was sweet, hearing Cassidy yell into his megaphone is priceless. We all got festively liquored up and Julie and I walked around the parade a bunch, which was cool, but we did miss some sort of throw-your-beads-at-the-kong-family float at the end. I’ll get you next time! KOOOONG!

Jumping For Joy is a podcast hosted by Zachary Sims and Mark Normand I was on a few months ago. When we recorded it we hung out for awhile before and I started talking about the trip and made the mistake of simply saying, “New Orleans is great! It’s so sad what happened there.” Everyone I know from NOLA made fun of me for about three days. “Oh really? I never noticed.” “Alex Grubard: The Most Perceptive Man in the World.” Apparently I am a very insensitive person.

If you got time and like hearing me talk here’s the link to their podcasts. Mine is called “On the Road With Alex Grubard”:
