The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, June 22

The fun keeps on going and our ratings keep climbing higher and higher baby! We are breaking new records for the number of listeners (we doubled our listeners in the past month alone). To sum it up, this show is not only HILARIOUS and HOT and RAW, but it is also chock full of shockers and surprises. This show just keeps getting better by the week and if you 'aint listening, you 'aint ending your week with laughs. This show is completely UNCENSORED, honest, and extremely personal. This is explicitly raw and most revealing comedy at its finest, basest, most primal core. Essentially, we are comedic cavemen and cavewoman and we are proud of it!

Without further ado, we have a stellar line-up of talent on the air this week. Susan’s favorite comedian in the entire bay area is back on the program this Sunday night (the beloved Anthony Hill) as well as other prized, delightful favorites of the JMP. It’s stimulating. It’s titillating! It’s not only deliciously juvenile but it’s also senior-approved! (Approved by those with memory problems, that is..)

Growing up in Oroville Ca. (where gravy is considered a beverage)
Anthony Hill soaked in and rebelled against his redneck surroundings. As with most comedians, he was the class clown spending lots of time in the principal’s office. Anthony has performed in every major comedy club in the Bay Area including the Punchline, Cobbs Comedy Club, and the San Jose Improv, where he is considered a ‘favorite’, sharing the stage with national headliners such as Brett Butler, Maria Bamford, Willie Barcena, Robert Schimmel, Darrell Hammond, Jeff Dunham, Bob Saget, and Brian Regan. Anthony is also busy working in small clubs, corporate functions, comedy festivals, and major benefits every week of the year.

Phil Johnson isn’t angry. Even when he’s screaming at the audience in the guise of a schizo killing his girlfriend or a jilted lover insulting every bit of his ex-lover’s femininity, it’s done with a warmth and a knowing glance that it’s all in good fun. It communicates to the audience that no matter what problems they’re going through, there’s always someone even more screwed up than them. Phil Johnson is, in fact, a raging optimist. And better yet, it’s all set to music. Phil Johnson deftly wields his guitar, spinning out one funny scenario after another. Far beyond the strumming/storytelling and parody style of other comedians his songs are all original, and written to include the music as an integral part of the story. His shows have been called “choreographed frenzy” and his easy, mellow command of the stage turns completely demented on a dime. It’s a show with variety, energy, and originality that definitely pushes the boundaries. With years of experience leading his band Roadside Attraction, a college degree in music, and his activities in film and TV, Phil Johnson knows well what it takes to entertain an audience. But beyond just entertainment, Phil seeks to actually communicate something important… That life is just not as serious as we all think.

Finally we have the zany and wonderful
Jimmy Gunn, another unique comedian and bay area club favorite with a style unlike any other! You can catch Jimmy Gunn at venues everywhere, and you don’t want to miss him. This is one comedian you will NEVER forget!!!
