Greg Fitzsimmons is on Howard Stern a lot, he’s written a book, he’s a great comic. He has his own podcast (fitzdog radio) and I love his stand up a lot. He’s just the most charming guy ever. See him live. As usual, I like someone so much I talk too much. He DOES say that he thinks I’m the modern day Erma Bombeck and we talk about porn more than I thought we would. Enjoy.

Oh... and you are NOT the porn dork I seek :)
Though the show your brother was mentioning almost certainly was not Attell's DAVE'S OLD PORN, the Showtime half-hour that GF was a guest on (some currently-active actors on it, too...quite aside from Ron Jeremy, looking at 1975 images of himself and noting wistfully how young he was then), which actually ran segments of sexual activity with guests' heads and other obscuring items in the way of anything hardcore enough to upset Showtime's censors, but the Spike channel-sponsored James Gunn-assembled PG PORN, which I've never gotten around to seeing: www.spike.com/shows/james-gunns-pg-porn --though I understand it's pretty funny, too (Dave Attell, always such a genial host on INSOMNIAC as well as scabrously funny whenever he wants to be, was the biggest draw to my catching the Showtime show...not that I turned away when, say, "Krista Rose" was onscreen, and the vintage clips were usually pretty funny as well, particularly as deconstructed by the guests).
Och, you two've got me thinking...whose pre-1980 comedy do I have on vinyl and/or cassette tape (sometimes augmented by eventual cds and such)...David Steinberg, Nichols & May, Lenny Bruce, Mort Sahl, Dick Gregory, Lord Buckley, Brother Dave Gardner (before he went Klan-favored, as I've read he eventually did), Tim Conway and Eddie Anderson, Bill Cosby, Robin Williams (too much unfocused spritzing, of course, but the best Truman Capote joke I've heard), the Credibility Gap (Harry Shearer and co.), the Firesign Theater (about half their stuff I've ever seen for sale), Joan Rivers, the Smothers Brothers, Tom Lehrer, and a fair amount of radio stuff...Bob and Ray (later NPR as well as early NBC), Ken Nordine and Stan Freberg on back through Fred Allen and Henry Morgan and all...
