Episode notes
To close out the calendar year, we’ve chosen some of our favorite comedy of 2010 from material released by a bunch of stand up comedians and sketch groups. Several of the performers featured were interviewed on our show this year, and even more have contributed or been interviewed in the past — so the fun doesn’t have to stop here, if you dig into the back catalogue!

- Karen Kilgariff
