Artie Lang took a break from The Howard Stern Show to visit the Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last night. The first segment was normal rude and crude stuff (typical Artie).

Never in my life have I read a book that reads like a screenplay to a good Biopic. However, I’m Dying Up Here: Heartbreak and High Times in Stand-Up Comedy’s Golden Era reads that way. But, a Biopic on who exactly? Written by William Knoedelseder, the book covers the trials and tribulations of such famous [...]

ESPN (@espn) just celebrated their 30th anniversary earlier this month. Over that time they’ve grown from a small time, privately owned, 24 hour sports news network, to a Disney owned, sports media giant. ESPN is THE voice in sports journalism today.

Former Director of Homeland Security and highly respected Republican figure head Tom Ridge stopped by The Daily Show on Wednesday.

Former U.S President Bill Clinton appeared as a guest on Late Show with David Letterman. Clinton is still as charming and personable as ever. His face is somewhat older, his hair is entirely white, but as soon as that southern twang in his voice is heard, it brings me back to a time in our [...]
