This Sunday night, a little red car is pulling up to the JMP studios with a bunch of comedic clowns spilling out of it. Get ready for this wacky radio circus, known as the John Miller Program with Susan Maletta.
Our first guest is Eric Schwartz, a.k.a. “Smooth-E”. He's the guy in your office with a secret life as a superstar. It’s hard to hide such a rare talent, as Schwartz‘s popularity is quickly rising. “Circulating the net faster than the Paris Hilton video” (Jerusalem Post), Smooth-E personifies the fresh-blended creation he is named for. Mixing comedy, music, and viral Internet videos, millions of fans worldwide have begun to "surrender to the blender." Eric has quickly become the most-watched comedian on Myspace.com with over a million views each month. Defying the boundaries of traditional stand-up, his multimedia appeal has the power to make national headlines. When a story happens in Hollywood, Smooth-E has gained the reputation of delivering hilarious songs and videos seen on by CNN, Fox, "The Tonight Show," E! and more. Eric's spectacular, character-and-music-driven live show has gained him appearances on "Comics Unleashed," (NBC) “White Boyz in the Hood” (Showtime), BET's "Comic View," “Midnight Money Madness” (TBS), “Trapped in TV Guide (TV Guide Channel), "Latino Laugh Festival" (SiTV), and "Loco Comedy Jam" (Mun2). His voice is heard as DJ on the Wayans Brothers’ new animated show, ”Thugaboo,” and each week as the narrator of the MGM-distributed series, "Animal Atlas."
In the second hour, John and Susan welcome 3 hilarious local comedians Owen Good, Erikka Innes, and Scotty Fell.
Susan claims Owen Good should be called “Owen Funny” but his credit card companies have a different name for him---“Owen Money!” Owen Good is a recovering newspaper journalist slowly being reintroduced to normal society. After years of writing for a third-grade reading level in a family newspaper, Owen's glad to move on to a more adult medium and vocabulary. His dry observations and snide commentary comes at you fast and informed, like the front page if MAD magazine took over the New York Times.
Quirky and energetic, comedian Erikka Innes delivers comedy that features snappy one-liners and stories about life as a slightly spacey but smart geek girl, and a lot of clever insights into the world around us. Her high-energy performances are a guided tour through a wonderland where D&D is the national pastime and William Shatner’s rendition of Rocket Man is the national anthem. Erikka has been on tour with Women Who Kick Comedy Butt and she also created her own comedy show ’Geek Comedy Night’. She has performed at the major clubs in the bay area, written for the television show "Fondle the Fear" and worked as a film scout for Viacom Productions. When she’s not writing or performing, she’s probably busy dreaming about being a starship captain.
Finally we have the silly and wonderfully outlandish Scotty Fell. Scotty regularly performs at venues all around the bay area. Scotty is one person who knows how to enjoy life. He loves comedy, music, travel, casinos (bad math and bright lights), dining out, performance theater, hockey, auto racing, BBQ, mixed drinks and dark beer, pizza, sex, performing in the comedy spotlight, cold weather storms, San Francisco, alternative lifestyles, religious ideology, the extreme left, and the extreme right.

The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, May 25
Put your sunglasses on, kids…this week the comedy stars are so #$&%-ing bright you just GOTTA wear shades! Oh yeah baby, celebrity sightings are becoming a regular occurrence around the JMP.
First up, we are star gazing at none other than Will Durst!
As the sacred cows routinely paint targets on their foreheads practically begging for someone to puncture their pomposity, America cries out for a man with the aim, strength, and style to hit them where it hurts the funniest. Will Durst is that man. Sweeping both sides of the aisle with a quiver full of arrows dipped in common sense, Durst transcends party ties, having performed at events honoring former Presidents Bill Clinton and George HW Bush as well as acclaimed appearances at both a Mayors Convention and Governors Conference. Outraged and outrageous, Durst is as current as today’s headlines, as accurate as a sniper, and universally acknowledged by even his peers as the nation’s foremost political comic.
In the second hour, John and Susan offer more extreme amusement. We have local comedic celebrities Joe Klocek and Jimmy Gunn!
Joe Klocek has become one of San Francisco's most unique comics. Using his razor-sharp wit, Joe 'works the crowd' to the delight of audiences all over the SF bay area and beyond. Joe is in high demand at clubs and corporate functions. Raised in the midwest, but now a confirmed San Francisco resident, Joe brings a refreshing look at life through the eyes of a class clown who read too much. You can catch Joe on Comedy Central’s “Live at Gotham” and also at the Punchline in San Francisco, where Joe created and regularly hosts the hilarious “Get It!? A Stand-up Comedy Game Show”.
Finally we have the zany and wonderful Jimmy Gunn, another unique comedian and bay area club favorite with a style unlike any other! Jimmy will be rocking the Punchline in San Francisco in “The Riff Sessions with Jimmy Gunn” featuring Doug Benson, Will Durst, W. Kamau Bell and Joe Klocek on Monday, May 26th.

The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, May 18
This week John and Susan are going psycho for a psychic!
First up, we have Suzanna (Psychic Revelations with Suzanna)! She is a radio and television personality and newspaper columnist who utilizes her psychic abilities to pick up an individual's energy from all forms of correspondence to successfully project what the future holds for them. (www.mediapsychic.com).
In the second hour, we have Susan’s two most favorite comedians in the bay area! The insanely hilarious and brilliant Anthony Hill and the super-talented and deliciously funny Debbie Campo.
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.
Debbie Campo performs all over the SF bay area and beyond. She also hosts the wildly popular comedy show Comedy Night in Novato at the Pacheco each month (for more information, check out http://www.pachecoplayhouse.org) and she is a local favorite at the SFCC Clubhouse.
Also we had on Kato Kaelin, his co-host Jeremy Brigham from “Outta Bounds”.
and good boy hood friend of Kato, Edward Hermman

The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, May 11
First up, we have a favorite of the JMP, Kira Soltanovich. Born in the former Soviet Union, and raised by immigrant parents in San Francisco, Kira Soltanovich has plenty to laugh about. "Like most kids, my parents took me to Disneyland …not for the rides, for the lines. They assumed there’d be food at the end of them." Kira was a series regular for four seasons on Girl Behaving Badly, and has also appeared on such shows as Jimmy Kimmel Live, 3rd Rock From The Sun, and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
In the second hour, we’ll chat with two first-time guests, Joe Nguyen and Adam McLaughlin.
Growing up in Georgia as the child of a Vietnamese refugee and a Jewish mother, Joe Nguyen was destined to be a comedian. After four years of college in Southern California, Joe moved to San Francisco and started performing stand-up comedy. His smart writing, likeable stage presence, and broad range of joke topics make Joe a crowd favorite, appealing to audiences of all backgrounds and lifestyles. Joe is the producer and co-host of Scantily Clad Comedy, a weekly showcase at the Clubhouse in San Francisco every Friday night at 9:00. Joe is also a semi-finalist in the Rooster T. Feathers Comedy Competition.
Adam McLaughlin has been keeping audiences in stitches in shows throughout the bay area. He uses witty social satire and captivating characters to create hilariously theatrical performances that leave audiences cheering for more. Adam is regular at the San Francisco Comedy College Clubhouse, where he co-hosts the Scantily Clad Comedy showcase and teaches stand-up comedy classes to teenagers (http://www.kidscomedy.org/). He has written and appeared in numerous videos on seesmic.com and is a semi-finalist in the Rooster T. Feathers Comedy Competition.
