The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, July 13

This Sunday, we're a little bit country and a little bit rock-n-roll! That's right, John and Susan become the mischievous alter egos of Donny and Marie Osmond....minus the purple socks, minus the incest...but add the Coors.

Two comedians this week are a little bit of country (not counting John) and the other three are a little bit Rock-N-Roll. First up on the JMP, we have classic rock mixed with hotness: Brendan Lynch is on the program again!

Brendan Lynch is HUGE in the Bay Area comedy scene, and not just because he is 6’6” ! A proud Santa Cruz native, Brendan has been WOW-ing audiences all over the area with his extremely clever and understated, dry and dead-pan sense of humor. A brilliant writer/performer and clean-cut dresser, Brendan is an enticing pick for discerning comedy fans…as well as for the ladies! Helloooo! Brendan recently headlined the Laugh Orgy in North Beach and is also part of the Heuristic Squelch Comedy Experience and the Six Feet Excitement shows, and can be found performing in comedy venues throughout the bay area. If you are smart and love to laugh, you will love coming out to one of Brendan’s comedy show. He is not to be missed!

Next up on the JMP...two Southern Comfort Comics, (hey-- that should be the name of a redneck comedy troupe, shouldn't it?) the charming redneck duo, Burtis Cutler and Gail Jones.

Burtis Cutler (A.K.A. "The World's Shortest Redneck") has stocked up his trailer and packed up his cooler with dozens of punchlines and dozens more fishing lines. He's so funny he makes us spit foamy Coors out of our noses! Wonderfully delightful and down-to-earth, expect a lot of laughs from Burtis Cutler as he shares with us many hilarious tales from life in the south.

Gail Jones is a recovering Southern Belle from a little bump in the road town called Hartselle, Alabama. In the late 70’s, she started doing lectures on sex education. She was surprised to find that she had a knack for making people laugh and putting the audience at ease. She combines the insight and humor that she gets from her "day job" as a sex therapist with the laughs and pain of being an older single person in the dating world. Frankly, she’s a relationship therapist that has decided that relationships are "too durn hard."

Gail was a Semi-Finalist in the Rooster T. Feathers Comedy Competition, as well as a finalist in the Battle of the Bay Comedy Competition. You can occasionally catch her TV debut on The New Detectives in the episode Up from the Grave on The Discovery Channel, where she killed a woman for thirty thousand dollars. Gail says she’s done worse for less. She has also co-written two children’s books as well as produced and hosted a cable access show, Let’s Talk About Sex and Loving where she won a BACE Award and WAVE Award. Described as the "Phyllis Diller of the 21st Century," Gail brings her background in lecturing improv, acting and writing to venues all over California where she keeps her audiences laughing all the way home.

Next up on the JMP, it's all Rock-n-Roll, kicked up a notch with some Death Metal and Punk Rock! We have none other than Dan Fuckin' Wilson and Lindsay Blaz on the show!

Struttin' her stuff in her high heels, skin-tight jeans, and brightly colored mohawk, Lindsay Blaz has slammed into the violent mosh pit we call the San Francisco comedy scene! She's a super funny up-and-coming comedian from Santa Cruz and she's a really cool chick, so let's show her a lot of love and welcome her into the mix. Lindsay hosts a popular and very fun comedy show in downtown Santa Cruz at the Blue Lagoon on Thursday nights.

Whether it's the light-hearted and goofy side of life, or the dark and mundane, chances are Dan F'n Wilson will find a way to put a humorous twist on the topic. Dan's comedy is a no-holds-barred look at everything from politics and pop culture, to relationships and his own family life. Being a native of the San Francisco Bay Area has given his comedy a diverse edge with a unique viewpoint that few other comedians share. Mix his personal take on the world with a high-energy delivery that few are able to match, and you get an explosive look at the world through the eyes of one of the most entertaining performers to come out of the bay area in many years. Dan makes his home in the East bay, and is a regular performer at some of the biggest clubs around Northern California.
