The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, Jan. 23

Do you want to know if you spent your time wisely last Saturday night? Take a close look at your radio. Is it sticky? No? Then you obviously didn’t hear the whole radio show.

Download the hotness and hilarity of our last show before it goes away. It was a wonderful night hanging out with John O'Connell, David Wiswell, Coree Spencer, Tony Sparks, and Kaseem Bentley (www.fccfree.com, "Last Show"). Our guests made us laugh so hard our cheeks hurt! (Our faces were pretty sore too.)

Burtis Cutler (A.K.A. "The World's Shortest Redneck") has stocked up his trailer and packed up his cooler with dozens of fishing lines and dozens more punch 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.

Dr. Brian King is a comedian who also is a psychologist specializing in Human Sexuality, which always makes for some hilarious and sizzling conversation! Dr Brian has led many research projects, written papers, and presented at national conferences regarding his research on s-e-x. Hell, they even let him teach college a few times. He is not a therapist or counselor, but he is an opinionated smart-ass with regular access to a computer. He is also a fan of hip-hop, vodka martinis, and girls that wear skirts in the winter. Oh, and comedy. Dr Brian likes to think he's a comedian. Dr. Brian also produces the wildly popular Wharf Room Comedy Stand-Up Showcase at Castagnola's in San Francisco.

Kevin Avery's high-energy brand of stand up has brought him to the finals of the San Francisco International Comedy Competition and earned him a spot on Metropolitan Magazines list of Top 99 People to Watch. A regular opener for Dave Chappelle and David Alan Grier, Kevin has become a nationwide comedy club favorite in his own right, and is also one half of the comic radio duo "Siskel and Negro." Of his animated style of stand up comedy and storytelling, the San Francisco Chronicle writes Avery is Amazing!

W. Kamau Bell understands even more than most comedians that timing is everything. Waaaaaaaaaaaay back in 2005 he appeared on Comedy Central and told his joke about the strangely named junior senator from Illinois and his chances of becoming America’s first black president. (Apparently not every good according to Kamau.) Comedy Central later announced that Kamau had told the very first joke about Barack Obama. For this, Kamau was named on that network’s list of Best 100 Obama Moments. Comedy Central also invited Kamau to perform his critically acclaimed solo show, The W. Kamau Bell Curve: Ending Racism in About an Hour, at their theater in Hollywood. Time Out New York said, “Happily, Bell finds comic gold in the wide range of material he mines, offering provocative insights into an ugly reality. FOUR STARS” The San Francisco Weekly honored Kamau as the Comedian of the Year in 2008 and also profiled him in a cover story in 2009.

And that’s not everything. Kamau has appeared at the prestigious Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal, where he was the only comedian to perform at both the New Faces Show and Best of The Uptown Comics. Kamau spent two years appearing regularly on radio station Live 105 as half of the movie review team Siskel & Negro. (Kamau is Negro.) The duo can still be heard online at their podcast at Roof Top Comedy. And in addition to Comedy Central, Kamau’s other TV appearances include Comics Unleashed, KQED’s Spark, ABC’s View From The Bay, and Filter on G4. And since 2007, Kamau has been regularly performing his hit solo show. Most recently he performed it at The 2009 New York International Fringe Festival. But Kamau is most proud of co-founding The Solo Performance Workshop (2005), a school for emerging artists. As a writer, Kamau is featured in the book What Would Bill Hicks Say?

Kamau has been profiled in several different newspapers, including four seperate occasions in The San Francisco Chronicle — even once (not ironically) during Black History Month. The San Francisco Weekly called Kamau “smart, stylish, and very much in the mold of politically outspoken comedians like Dave Chappelle and Margaret Cho” — though he was more excited that they called him “handsome.”

Now put your head back and say "Ahhhhh..." so I can stick somethin' in there.

Tune in!
