The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, June 8

LLLLLLET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!

Put up your dukes -- we’re going to do some ASS KICKING this Sunday night.
It’s WOMEN WHO KICK COMEDY BUTT night!

That’s right, these funny babes are kickin’ butts and takin’ names. These boxing-with-wit, beautiful, comedic champions are getting ready to enter the JMP ring in style. They’ve put on their gloves, they’ve primped their hair and makeup, and they’ve had a few beers. Who wants free ringside seats!? This is a night jam-packed with estrogen, full of gut-busting laughs, and fisting. I mean boxing. I mean joking. Every comic featured on the air this Sunday night is brilliant, tells hilarious jokes, and has a vagina! (Well, except John.) (Every comic featured on the air does have an anus though.)

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.

Next up, John and Susan bring Grace White and Beth Schumman into the ring.

Grace White, a.k.a. “That Old Hippie Chick”, is a classic bohemian with a mother who stalks her, a father to whom road rage is an art-form, and a stand-up comedy act like no other. White launched her comedy career at the onset of her "Middle Ages," and has gone on to open for such musical acts as 3 Doors Down, Starship, Edgar Winter, Leon Russell, and Jethro Tull, as well as comedians Kevin Pollack, Jack Mayberry, Rocky LaPorte, and Father Guido Sarducci. Her television credits include appearances on "Good Morning America" and the "Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy Telethon," she made her film debut in "The Independent," starring Jerry Stiller and Janeane Garofalo, and she's made thousands of fans laugh in Golden Gate Park from the stage of San Francisco's long-running annual "Comedy Day" celebration.White is a symphony of contradictions, a blur of reluctant energy, and a compulsive workaholic entrepreneur who stubbornly maintains her title of World’s Laziest Woman. She’s also a successful single parent (her daughter’s never been to jail), and has earned a solid reputation for herding aspiring comedians through their performing puberty. White’s all female comedy tour, Women Who Kick Comedy Butt, has toured nationally and is now making plans to take over the planet. That Old Hippie Chick may not be the last of her tribe, but she is surely one of the most entertaining.

Beth Schumman is one of the founding members of the Mixed Nuts: Comics on Meds stand up comedy troupe, which performs at popular venues throughout Northern California. The show features comedians on medication for a wide variety of mental health disorders, raising awareness and laughter at the same time. Beth is also a regular with Grace White's Women Who Kick Comedy Butt. Beth has shared the stage with Rob Cantrell, James P. Connolly, Jimmy Dore, Will Durst, Al Madrigal, Phil Palisoul, Tom Pecora, Tom Rhodes, Dwight Slade, Bobby Slayton, Harland Williams, and more.
