The John Miller Program with Candy Churilla March 23

This week's show will be hosted by the best guests of 2007! Congratulations to Kurt Weitzmann, Ben Feldman, and Lisa Myers.

The entity known as Kurt Weitzmann began performing stand up at the infamous Holy City Zoo where Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, and Margaret Cho honed their craft. Since then he's appeared on Comedy Central, MTV, and on the stages of every San Francisco comedy club ever. He created, edited, and produced the ingenious SF Weakly, a highly celebrated parody of the SF Weekly, for which he was labeled a comic genius by non other than The SF WEEKLY. He wrote, produced, and performed comedy shows at HBO WORKSPACE and COMEDY CENTRAL STAGE and created sketches and comedy shows at THE FAKE GALLERY. Kurt worked with such comedy luminaries as Dave Thomas, Patton Oswalt, and Eddie Pepitone, to name a few.

Ben Feldman, a favorite of the JMP, is hated by most comics because he's not only incredibly wealthy, but has been voted (by himself and Candy) as the Bay Area's funniest comic. Ben created the monthly comedy show Ben Feldman's Laugh Orgy, which happens the second Thursday of every month at San Francisco's Grant & Green Saloon.

Growing up, comedian Lisa Myers stood out as the oddball in a sea of flannel shirts and John Deere caps in her small, mildewing, Oregon town. Born into a community of Scandinavians and hillbillies, she fled her surroundings wrought with lutefisk and country western music as soon as she possibly could. On her path, the mouthy kid blossomed into a fully functioning funny broad. Her sardonic personality and less-than-demure attitude emerge on stage with thought provoking humor.
