A great first guest for a great first show - The Master of the Roasts, comedian Jeff Ross. With his new book set to hit stores, Jeff and Marc talk about the finer art of the comedic roast, as well as how a roast led to one of the worst nights of Marc's life, and how one of the worst night's of Jeff's life was salvaged by Tom Cruise.

Also, in his WTF moment of the day, Marc tells us how an act of crime led to his liberation from Whole Foods Market.

Just tell me where to send my belts in support of the show. Hell, you can have all the old clothes you want. Then rent the place next to RL and charge half what they do. You can even use the same kids to sew LR lables on to the junk so that it looks right in the mirror.

Remember comedy friend that when all of us are long gone your voice and what you say today will live on in the minds of all the oppressed across the digital planet and in 50 years a kid living in a shack will listen to your show and feel good if only for an hour.

Marc,

Intelligence, Perspective, Humor. What more could one ask for?

Respectful Bit:

If you want to now why some people have a bad attitude towards Jews, it is because Jews write the best humor. They get all the bookings.

Also,

Jesus was crucified because his stand up routine frightened the Romans. I bet you know that.

sincerely.

It\'s so nice to have something to listen to!...I need more!
Congrats on the great numbers...
You know Im in to subscribe...and the same goes for any project that Sammy puts together...maybe we\'ll end up with somewhat of a station cobbled together. I can get the Chicken Whisperer for you! heh...

and, they are building a Fairway here too...so fuck whore foods...Im boycotting but I am not ruling out the stealing thing. I never did get into the shoplifting thing...maybe its that last thrill for me!
But, does the conveyor belt on the second floor of the Houston st WF count? I wanted to eat and hide the plates....but the food going round there sorta scares me...

don\'t try this at home, kids....no comedians were jailed in the making of this podcast!

My CAPTCHA was hochstein jasper, which I find troubling in that its slightly anti-Semitic and also anti-confederacy at the same time...make yer mind up WTF!!

Super to hear you again. Your voice was as if you were right here in the room. Wow!! How do you do that? :) :) I like the way the BRL Team wrote to let us know what\\\'s up with you and Seder. Great Team.

Thank you for your voice and time for doing the pod for us.

Takecare, :) :) :) :)

Peace

i like this Marc, you sound much more relaxed and professional than you did on the BRL, even though that show was kick ass. is this a daily thing or what? hope so, keep it up Marc.

Glad to have your voice back on my mp3 player, Marc. First episode was a home run. I love your interviewing style, how you actually let your guest speak. Some comedians/hosts/podcasters have a hard time restraining their comedic instincts during interviews, constantly piping up, but you always facilitate a smart and interesting conversation. I could listen to Ross\'s stories all day.

Marc, I\'ve really enjoyed your work on the radio from the early days with \"Sedition\" to BRL. Listen, you were, and still are, speaking my language concerning politics and \"our\" generations culture stuff. I\'m in my mid-40\'s too, so it\'s cool to listen to your concerns, which are much the same as mine.

Just know, that there are people like me out here and seek you out, and to our luck find you! I just got this fuckin\' iphone and this morning, early, around 4am, I was looking for something to listen to and guess who the fuck I found, YOU! So, hey...it was a great broadcast...all of it.

At the end, I said to myself (but in a nice, happy, serene way)...\"What the fuck...\"

Good to hear your exasperated voice, Marc. Sharp and funny stuff. Nice bit about John Mackey. You could do a whole \'cast on the word \"Socialism\", what it actually means, and how it\'s being thrown around by idiots.

WTF-Do you really have a life if it has to be salvaged by Tom Cruise? Thank you for being the public voice of what rattles through my head!

I miss BRL so much & glad to have you back, this was great to listen to. We aren\'t even lucky enough to get an overprice Whole Foods in Grand Rapids Michigan (just rotten fruit & veggies by the local chains) I proud of your moment there.

Your mind reminds me of the guy yelling at me down at the the Trailways station: \"DO YOU KNOW WHY THEY\'RE TRYING TO FREEZE LIGHT?\" \"No.\" \"BECAUSE THERE IS NO ZERO!\" But that\'s a good thing, see.

Welcome back Marc. I\'m so grateful to have you back. I\'m saving the show for tomorrow morning when I\'m driving to work with my Breakroom Live Blend. I did listen to the beginning and I\'m surprised at how professional it sounds.
It must be killing those AAR suits to know that they can\'t fire you for a fourth time.

And here I was, listening to a February 2005 Morning Sedition yesterday and responding the way I usually do when I listen: \"G*ddammit! F*ckin\' morons! Good holy Christ I miss this show.\" And here, like manna from heaven, you are, back where you belong -- on the rant beat. I just cancelled my AAR On-Demand (which I\'d had since the beginning) on Monday, along with an angry e-mail to the suits over there. That 70 bucks is yours -- and more -- if you decide to make this on a subscription basis.

Peas: Move to NJ. We have a Fairway Market here in Paramus that\'ll make you never even think about Whole Paycheck ever again.

Jim Earl: Where the hell you been hiding? Any Milfingtons going to stop by?

Holly in Phoenix: Do I know you? Does your last name start with \"T\"?

Heh. Captcha is \"New gooding\". I\'d say it is.
