Joel Radio #154: My Friend Heather
Jul 15th
Joel Radio is proud to finally showcase someone who’s been mentioned many times in the past, but has never been a guest – Joel’s ex-girlfriend, comedian and entertainer extraordinaire, Heather Kozlakowski. As she’s making a big move to California to better her career, Heather finally shares her tales of movie acting, radio hosting and comedy. She also talks about what it’s like to date Joel – why does he always look left? – and their unlikely friendship that happened after their break-up. You’ll also hear about her children’s book inspired by Joel, and her open mike arguments with other female comics that were also inspired by Joel! Also, find out Heather’s favorite summer movies, like how Minions is better than Inside Out, why Spy was so good and why she didn’t quite get Mad Max. Plus, Joel on the new season of Big Brother, Penn & Teller: Fool Us returns, the great James Randi documentary, Glen Campbell’s documentary brings the tears, and why Soaked in Bleach doesn’t convince him that Kurt Cobain was murdered. Good luck to Heather from Joel Radio, our loss is the world’s gain!

Joel Radio #152: A Heart Breaking Hard Luck Story
May 28th
So much has been said over the years on this show about how modern TV fails to create new comedy stars, but there’s no better example of this than this past week’s America’s Got Talent. AGT trotted out a vocally challenged comedian with a hard luck story who won over the hearts of the judges and gave him a valuable pass to the later rounds. The syrupy performance can be heard here on the show (or seen here) and while the guy clearly gets some laughs, Joel feels it’s worth a $50 emcee gig more than a million dollar prize. These guys know what they’re talking about too, as addition to Corey Hall, this week Joel is joined by veteran comedian Mark Sweetman who remembers the old days before comedy clubs, which leads a discussion as to how Detroit has changed over the years, where it’s going, and Joel’s prediction about the future scandal that will inevitably set back the city even more. Also, Louis C.K. bombs and might be pervert, a final goodbye to David Letterman, and Tom Waits is really good – but not great. Plus, Jimmie Walker holds court, the guys dig Lena Dunham in her underwear, and Mad Max is pretty darn great, too.

No offense to the guy – but this was the most annoying thing ever
