The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, April 3rd

It's almost Easter and we have an eggcelent show planned! But you will REALLY need to go to church tomorrow morning after listening to our show because we are eggstremely eggciting, eggshilarating, and uh-oh...we have eggs-rated material!

Let's work out. And no, I don't mean working out at the gym so we can lose our back fat, spare tires, and cankles just in time for summer. I mean let's work out our ISSUES. Issue number one: We have a problem with anyone who does not intend to listen to our next show. Why? Because (a) we have a fierce line-up of some of the funniest people on the planet, (b) we CARE that you have a really fun time filled with smiles and laughter, and (c) we have abandonment issues, OK? So let's work this out. We're here to lift your (and our own) depression, what with all this cold weather, rain, and lack of sexual activity. But you know what we've learned? April showers bring May flowers. And more importantly, golden showers bring super powers! (Sorry. It rhymed.) And with that, urine for a great show!

Kato Kaelin is the most famous houseguest of all time. An aspiring actor and professional freeloader, Kaelin lived in the guesthouse at OJ Simpson’s Rockingham mansion and offered a sense of humor to the OJ trial. Kaelin parlayed his fame into appearances on TV shows like The Norm Show (2001), Celebrity Boot Camp (2002), and Eye For an Eye (2005 - 07), and in movies including BASEketball (1998) and Dorm Daze 2 (2006). Kaelin also appeared bare-chested in an edition of the "New Yorker" and on the cover of "Playgirl." He enjoys unparalleled success as an actor, often playing himself.

Also on the program, we'll be chatting with John O'Connell. O'Connell is a nationally-touring stand-up comedian from Austin, Texas and an original member of Ron White's Texas Hill Country Comedy Writers. He's written several films including the winner of 2008's ABFF Best Film award "The Abduction of Jesse Bookman" and the indie thriller "Pineapple" in which he also co-starred. Born in the midwest and now working out of Austin, Texas, O’Connell has performed stand-up comedy in every imaginable venue and shared the stage with a wide range of performers, from Dave Attell to Dolly Parton. He’s a veteran touring comic and has worked The Improv in Hollywood, the Comedy Cafe in London, and hundreds of clubs in between. In 2006 John organized "Comics Coming Together for Hurricane Relief" bringing Ron White, Tommy Chong, and Harry Anderson to Austin, raising nearly $100,000 for the Red Cross. As Head Writer of Ron’s "Texas Hill Country Comedy Writers", he continues to work on projects for the Blue Collar comic. O’Connell is also an avid runner, and has run several marathons including the 2004 Boston Marathon. But don’t let that fool you, he loves to party and is a firm believer in living life to the fullest.

Next up, get ready for non-stop laughs. Our good friend Cory Robinson is on the show!

Cory "Showtime" Robinson has been doing stand-up in the Bay Area since he was 11 years old. Dared by a classmate to perform stand-up comedy at his local talent show, he went on to win that competition three times in four years and never looked back. He continued to pursue this talent with the help of a family friend and owner of Planet Gemini, Anthony Lane, who gave him the chance to perform in his club throughout his teenage years. It was at Planet Gemini where Cory was able to cultivate his talent, harden his edges, and learn the controversial arts of the stage. It is also here where he was able to meet and share the stage with such performers as George Lopez, Jimmy Fallon, Gabriel Iglesis, Steve McGrew, Ralph Harris, Christopher "Kid" Reid, the late Shirley Hemphill, and many others.

Cory is now living in San Jose, California. Attending SJSU for business and marketing, he is also busy getting stage time at comedy clubs all over the bay area. His comedy deals with issues of race, weight, sex, money, and various other aspects of life where one can find humor. His star is certainly rising since moving to the Bay Area where he has performed with comedy greats such as Ty Barnett, Mark Curry, and Mike Epps. The sky is the limit for this super-talented young star.

Now get ready for the X-Rated portion of the show. Why do I say that? Because deliciously funny Ronn Vigh is coming back to see us and when Ronn Vigh comes to see us, we somehow end up talking about sex in great detail until the end of the night. GOOD TIMES!!!

Ronn Vigh, so-sexy-it’s-difficult-to-not-jump-his-bones-while-he’s-on-stage, brings his unique brand of comedy to clubs, colleges, and airport lavatories all over the world. His brash attitude and acerbic wit have earned him a comparison to a young Joan Rivers by SF Weekly. Well, if she were male, gay, and didn’t shoot Botox by the pound. He was featured on NBC’s Last Comic Standing II and in 2005 founded and still co-produces the successful “Harvey’s Funny Tuesday’s” weekly comedy show at Harvey’s in the Castro District of San Francisco. No stranger to the comedy and alternative scene, he recently hosted Palm Springs Pride, headlined the Lake Tahoe Gay & Lesbian WinterFest, 10th Annual Michigan ComedyFest, and the list goes on and on and on--much like when Ronn speaks.

His one man show, 98 Pounds of Fury, enjoyed a successful run, appeared in the Off-Broadway smash hit 10 Naked Men, recently hosted coverage for the SF GLBT Pride Parade and gained much attention for a controversial off-the-cuff comment about bisexuals. He’s played Joan Rivers at Comedy Noir’s Jesus Roast, a gay Elvis Presley in a Vegas.com commercial, and a science geek in a Magrack ad displayed in NYC subways. Needless to say, he’s versatile (in many ways). He’s been heard on the radio waves and a frequent contributor to shows such as "Fernando & Greg" on Energy 92.7FM, Shake Radio on 960 AM, The Quake and Live 105’s KGAY Weekend in San Francisco. He currently reports, and was featured in, the New York Times for his "Weekly Show" on Vidsf.com. His biggest accomplishment to date: working as a flight attendant and he never smothers any of his passengers with a pillow.

And finally, we are pleased to have the very lovely and silly Kelly Anneken back in the studio with us!

Kelly Anneken was raised by a pack of feral television sets on the banks of Cincinnati's Mill Creek in the mid-80s, and was later left to fend for herself throughout 12 years of Catholic school with only network television to sustain her. After a brief flirtation with piety (which ended with her introduction to basic cable), she found herself adrift in adulthood, with absolutely no marketable skills to coast on until shuffling off this mortal coil. At this critical juncture, Kelly met and married a wealthy, surprisingly attractive computer nerd named Tom.

Using her intoxicating combination of airtight logic and sexuality, Kelly convinced Tom to leave behind his stable life in Ohio so that she could move to San Francisco and chase her dreams. Her dreams being, primarily, access to medical marijuana, re-electing Governator Arnold Schwarzenegger, and referring to herself in the third person. Eventually Tom humbly suggested that Kelly find new, more profitable dreams. So, after failing at every other possible form of employment, this industrious Jill-of-no-trades has opted to either make her own fortune by humorously chronicling the decline of Western culture or die trying. Confidentially, our money is on the latter.

Now go to the fridge and grab a can of beer (or soda, if you're all AA-ish), then raise it in the air like you just don't care. We toast our drinks to you, dear friends. Thank you for listening to The John Miller Program every week so faithfully on FCCFREERADIO. Your loyalty to our show makes us want to fully bone you. Hard. Bareback style. What??? You say you'd rather wear a condom?!? HOW DARE YOU!!!

OK so go and get your condoms and then tune in!

The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, March 20

I'm not going to waste a lot of time with a big ole' wordy blog tonight, mainly because I'm hella busy, running late, and need to get my ass back up to beautiful, freaky San Francisco soon to get this party started. We're all about showcasing celebrity and local comedians on the JMP, so without further ado, here are the bio's for all the funny, shiny stars we'll have in the studio tonight. If you are in San Francisco, tune in from 8 pm to midnight on 107.3 FM in San Francisco. If you are at home, get online and listen to us on www.fccfree.com or www.fccfreeradio.com. You'll be glad you did. Well, maybe some of you will be glad. Others will be disturbed. Let's be honest here.

Phil Perrier is a hilarious national touring stand-up comedian and writer for the Jay Leno show. He started with All Comedy Radio in the spring of 2003 and was syndicated on 37+ stations in the United States, 23+ stations in Canada, and one station in South Africa. He is best known for the Hollywood Report "Limited Access", Recurring Sketches: "Interview with a Dead Guy", "Celebrity Sodium Pentothal", "Wisdom of the Ages, with Ceepak Okra", and "Oblivious Witness to History". In 1990, Phil started writing jokes for Jay Leno & "The Tonight Show" and still to this day writes for Jay.

In 1999, Phil started writing for his first Nationally Syndicated radio show "Bob and Tom's Big Show”. In 2001, he began writing for Martin Short and "The Martin Short Show". Ten years after he started writing for Jay Leno, Phil Perrier also started writing for David Letterman & "The Late Show". Phil still writes for both shows. Phil has also been a columnist for many newspapers including the L.A. Daily News, Washington Times, San Francisco Examiner, Baltimore Sun, Philadelphia Inquirer, Cleveland Plain Dealer, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Birmingham News, JewishWorldReview.com and, last but not least, he was a Staff Writer for the Athens (Ga.) Observer from 1993-2000.

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.

Michael Slack knew from childhood he would become the world's greatest Major-League-Baseball-playing archaeologist. Adulthood, however, has found him lacking the strength, speed, and coordination of a pro athlete, as well as the raw magnetism of the average archaeologist. With little choice, Michael has lowered himself to a life of stand-up comedy until a promising career in mall security takes off. A perpetual fish out of water, Michael stumbles through a world determined to pants him and tie him to the goal posts. With a comfortable style often described as "easier to hear with a microphone,"

Michael's smart, clean approach appeals to club and private audiences alike. He appears at clubs across North America, and featured with some of the biggest names in comedy, including Bob Saget, Brian Regan, and Jeff Dunham. Michael has taken top honors in numerous contests and competitions, and has headlined comedy festivals from Florida to Hawaii. Michael Slack performs on Royal Carribean and Princess Cruise Lines, and appears in NBC/Universal's "NBC at the Pump" video series at Shell stations nationwide.

"Michael Slack is a funny, smart, good man. I found him to be instantly likeable by audiences and people in general. He's witty and sharp in his observations, and gracious and classy in character. I like this guy.” – Bob Saget

“A very funny human being person. Very funny and a nice guy and all that.” – Brian Regan

Finally, we have the ever-so-charming and funny Greg Asdourian on the program! Greg is a native San Francisco Bay Area entertainer. Born in San Francisco and now residing in the East Bay, he has been performing his relateable, endearing, and self-deprecating brand of comedy all over California, including the world-famous Comedy Store in Hollywood. Greg's stage time isn't limited to comedy. He is also a professional stage actor. Having done "Shakespeare in the Park" to most recently starring in the west coast premiere of "Evil Dead: The Musical" with the Willows Theater Company. Greg hosts a very funny comedy show at Bliss Bar on Monday nights in San Francisco, and can also be found Tuesday night's doing stand-up at La Tapatia restaurant in Concord.

Now go and get naked and do what you do! Just make sure you turn the camera on and send a clip to us. John needs something to masturbate to and well...I need a good laugh.

Then tune in!

The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, March 13

It's almost time for your weekly dose of chaos, madness, and debauchery. First though, St. Patrick's Day is almost here and we have some fun facts for ya! Fun Fact #1: Did you know that the color green became associated with St. Patrick's Day during the 19th century? Green, in Irish legends, was worn by fairies and immortals, and also by people to encourage their crops to grow. (In John's case, Marijuana.) Fun Fact #2: John does not wear green on St. Patrick's day because he hopes some 19-year old with a Grandpa Fetish will pinch him on the ass. Fun Fact #3. Susan will be dying her pubes green in honor of St. Patrick's Day.

Oh man. Tonight is going to be one FIERCE show. You DON'T want to miss it, trust me. Before we go over the line-up, I want to remind you that you are invited to come out and celebrate our One-Year Birthday Party for 107.3 FM and FCCFREERADIO! We will be broadcasting LIVE from the event so come on down, say hello, and get some air time and great drinks. The party is at TONIC BAR at Polk St. and Union in San Francisco THIS Friday night, March 19th. We would love to see your shining, smiling, drunk faces. The fun starts at 5 pm until about 10.

Starting off the festivities, we will be speaking with Dave Hyden. Dave Hyden is a Cincinnati local comedian and actor who regularly performs his smart, cynical comedy at Go Bananas. He has starred in many commercials including "Free Doritos – Snow globe throwing office worker," which was voted Superbowl XLIII’s number one commercial by USA Today, MSNBC, and YouTube.

Next, we are VERY excited to have a SF Bay Area local comedy veteran and San Francisco favorite on the program. Joe Klocek has become one of San Francisco's most unique comics. With a razor-sharp wit that he uses to 'work the crowd', 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. Joe was featured on Comedy Central's "Live at Gotham" and NBC's "Last Comic Standing." He is also a regular Headliner at the San Francisco Punchline, where he created and hosted the wildly popular "Get It!? A Stand-up Comedy Game Show". Joe has graced the stage at the prestigious Comedy Day at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, was a runner up in the 2003 S.F. International comedy competition, and a Finalist in the 2004 Seattle Comedy Competition. Joe teaches a workshop to comedians at the San Francisco Comedy College called "Riffing 101 Workshop with Joe Klocek". (I took the class myself and it's fantastic--beneficial for both new and veteran comedians.)

Fun Fact about Joe: Did you know that Susan Maletta is a fan of Joe Klocek and that he is one of her Top 5 Favorite Bay Area Comedians?! That's kind of a big deal. Joe is absolutely hysterical and one of the most talented comedians in the business today. To miss out on one of his shows is to miss out on a night full of laughs. Why do that?

Another Fun Fact about Joe: Did you know that Joe Klocek will be appearing with the famous and hilarious Dom Irrera at the SF Punchline from Thursday, March 25th through Saturday, March 27th? Well now you know.

Yet Another Fun Fact about Joe (possibly the most fun of all facts): Did you know that Susan Maletta once asked Joe Klocek to autograph her boobie and he obliged? (Let's just say it required him to write in a very large font size.)

Next up on the JMP...we have the lovely and talented Kristee Ono joining us in the studio! Yay!!! Kristee lives for fun, grabbing the mic to awkwardly over-share every element of her life. She plays around the City and can be spotted at Club Deluxe, the Purple Onion, and the Dark Room. Kristee is also host to "The Ladies Room" show, which is the only all-ladies open mic, every Wednesday night at the Brainwash Cafe in San Francisco. Come check out Kristee Ono at the Galeria de la Laughter this St. Patrick's Day at 800 Mission.

Now are you ready for your weekly dose of wildness? Hope so because local troublemaker, wild man, and funny man BUTCH ESCOBAR will be back on the show tonight!

Butch Escobar hosts a kick-ass monthly showcase at the San Jose Improv on the 4th Wednesday of every month called “Butch Escobar’s Unfiltered Underground.” Butch also has hosted and featured in Big Al’s Big Ass Comedy Show, another great show you can catch at the Improv. You can see Butch perform at other great venues around the South Bay and it’s a guarantee that any of the shows he’s involved in is going to be a great time. Butch is great—he tells it like it is and does not censor himself by any means. And, it’s a well known fact, we’re all about not censoring yourself on the JMP. We can’t wait to talk about anything and everything with him.

Now grab a bar of Irish Spring and wash that ass real nice because we want you all clean and ready for us!

Tune in!

The John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, March 6

Well it's about that time. Party Time, that is... FCCFREERADIO invites you and your friends to come out with us to celebrate our One-Year Birthday Party for 107.3 FM!!! That's right darlin's, we are having a Raging Birthday Bash for FCCFREERADIO on Friday, March 19th from 5 pm on through the evening---complete with hot, sexy bartenders, talented and wonderful radio show hosts and co-hosts from the station, hilarious and interesting radio show guests, and other partners in crime! We will be broadcasting LIVE from the event on 107.3 FM and www.fccfreeradio.com.

So don't forget to come on out to TONIC BAR at Polk St. and Union in San Francisco Friday night, March 19th. John Miller and Susan Maletta will both be there along with the rest of the 107.3 FM crew to fill your systems with laughter, good times, and plenty of booze.

OK. Without further ado, let's talk about TONIGHT's good times. Tonight is the John Miller Program with Susan Maletta, starting at 8 pm until midnight, yes that's four hours of non-stop insanity and hilarity...and we have some pretty spectacular guests on the line-up, as usual. Starting with our good friend and regular to the program....Steve Booth!

Steve Booth has had a varied career in stand-up, television, and film. His commercials include "Free Doritos – Snow globe throwing office worker," which was voted Superbowl XLIII’s NUMBER ONE COMMERCIAL by USA Today, MSNBC and YouTube, "Get More Heinz – Big Kid," a Herbert Brothers Production, and "Duct Tape – Duct Taped Roomate," a Doritos Crash The Superbowl Finalist that aired on Comedy Central, MTV, and G4. Steve was host of 17 episodes of XLTV, which aired on UPN for two seasons. He was also a featured performer on Uncut. Steve also appeared on SplatterFactor as comic relief interviewing paintball players and fans. This show aired for one season on FOXSPORTS. Steve has also had numerous small spots in music videos, local commercials, and appearances as a local personality.

Steve was also a featured comedian in the South of Sanity Stand-Up Comedy Tour, was a Finalist in Jerry Springer’s Funniest Fan Contest, and was a featured comedian in Laughter From The Homefront – a DVD for troops in Iraq. He has done hundreds of performances at comedy clubs, colleges, corporations, and theaters across the midwest. He is currently the Director of Nacho Mamas Comedy, and has been in the Wit’s End Comedy Troupe, Trespassers Only Improv Comedy, and Friday Night Live. Steve also taught improv and acting workshops at Xavier University and for corporate sales/brand/team building. Steve has authored a book and DVD series entitled Improv Games for Groups. He was also author and performer on House of Bugs, a 10-song children’s music CD, and he was author and performer for a 12-song comedy album entitled “Screwed, Blued, and Tattooed”. Steve Booth was also a celebrity judge at the Oxford International Film Festival.

With the gift of gab and a passion for people, it’s no wonder Sandy Stec has taken the entertainment world by storm. Currently an on-air personality for Mix 106.5 in San Jose, Sandy has hosted her own mid-day radio show for over 8 years, music and humor intensive.

But when the on-air mic is "off," the comedy mic is ON. A regular at the Punchline, Cobbs Comedy Club, the Riviera in Las Vegas and many other venues, Sandy has entertained audiences with her sarcastic life stories and dialect-driven characters from coast to coast. Her stand-up has allowed her to work with greats like Dana Carvey, Jake Johannsen, Brett Butler, Chelsea Handler, Gilbert Gottfried, Greg Behrendt, David Alan Grier and many, many others. She's currently a member of the "5 Funny Females" national tour, and was thrilled to host red carpet interviews at Nickelodeon's 2009 "TV Land Awards" in Los Angeles.

Aside from radio and comedy, Sandy is also an experienced host. She's entertained crowds of 15,000 for sporting events at the HP Pavilion; hosted summer concerts at San Jose's "Music in the Park"; conducted live artist interviews, and has an extensive amount of charity work under her belt (including running two full marathons as a member of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's 'Team in Training'). She's also hosted an array of corporate events (auctions, fundraisers, awards nights) and has professional voice-over training from Voice Trax of Sausalito. When she’s not on camera or behind a mic, she’s probably trying to find out more ways to be on camera or behind a mic. And...eating cake.

Always the quiet one in class, Wesley Hoffman would find a way in the class to make jokes with other students while the teachers weren't paying attention. In high school, only a select few seemed to understand his puns and style of humor, which motivated his classmate to create the term "Wes Joke," which has stuck ever since. Wesley did his first comedy routine at DeAnza College making fun of his prominent Adam's Apple, which was televised on DeAnza's Cable Channel. Wesley went onto San Jose State where he appeared in numerous stage productions. He played the lead role of George Milton in John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men".

Today, Wesley continues to audition for theatre productions and perform stand-up comedy. "The two different art forms really help make each other stronger," Wesley says. "I love the challenge of stand-up, because it is only you, yourself, and there are expectations to make people laugh. With theatre, you have a much bigger support group and a script that is written for you, but the adrenaline is still just as amazing." Wesley has performed comedy all over the bay area (San Jose Improv, Rooster T. Feathers, Stanford University and more) and currently produces two monthly comedy shows in Gilroy and Morgan Hill.

Now go and get yourself all pretty for us. Most importantly, make sure you shave your legs and your pits. Even more importantly, please wax your back. (A pube trim wouldn't hurt anybody either.)

Then tune in!
