HOLY SHIT! Rich Karski gots dah moves!

Hey people, guess what?  On the show today I have a comedian you’ve quite possibly never heard of before.  But hey, thats your problem, because this guy is out there.  Cutting his teeth in Wisconsin while he was garnering an education higher than my own and refining his act back home in Boston.  His dog is named Boss and he’s not a hog! But look out people, I’m so glad he could make it out here today and I think we’re all going to have a great time hearing what he has to say.  Ladies and Gentleman Rich Karski! Read more

Ep17: Sarah Martin is crazy!

Posted on by Tommy Sunshine in Podcast, Tommy's Blog | Leave a comment

Today I managed to convince a very lovely lady to come sit down and chat with me at the Sunshine Studios.  We met while doing comedy at the Varsity club in Quincy, MA one night and I instantly fell in love with her down home, not afraid to mix it up, one of the guys style.  She’s one of the most friendly, kind comics who offered me some of the most heartfelt, empathetic, and genuine, advice in my fledgling career. As long as she’s performing, I will forever be her fan! She’s hard working, she’s super cool, and I know we are going to have an amazing chat, so ladies and gentleman, the one and only, Sarah Martin!

What it is, what it be!?

Been a while since I updated my comedy travelings so figured, well hell, now is as good of a time as any, right? The last time I wrote about what I was up to was on 4/20 so I have to give some of the blame to the good times that have been rolling ever since.

So the Agawam Polish American Club huh? What a great time that was! The venue was perfect, low ceiling, stage in the middle and raised, and huge! I’d guess 300 would have been claustrophobic but we had at least 200 folks there. Read more

Because today, one such person is here in the Sunshine Studios to allow us to get to know him a little better.  I know y’all are going to love him, he’s a great guy, a hysterical comic, and a fellow podcaster.  I present to you, the host of the fabulous Comics Coming up PodcastMatt Kona (@mattkona), welcome to the show man!

Ambush comedy 101

Posted on by Tommy Sunshine in Tommy's Blog | 2 Comments

The battle for getting some time is on!

So once again I was sitting around checking out my facebook looking for an open mic when I saw Riley Mathews post about this being the first Tuesday of the month and bring your new material to work on to the Varsity Club!  YEAH BABY!  So as I was getting ready I figured I should give Spike a call and see if he wanted to hang, he did so I hit the road!

Once inside the club, we find the show had been cancelled due to the Celtics playoffs.  Damn it!  It wouldn’t have been so bad if this had only been my first time.  But he last time I picked up Spike to hit the Varsity Club with our boy Sully, the same shit had gone down.  So now as soon as we got a view of the place, Spike is all like, “Oh, no,we got another Tommy Sunshine again!  So now my name is becoming synonymous with cancelled open mics!  WTF!?!

Zack Cordes

Today’s guest is quite possibly one of the most unique individuals I have met since doing comedy.  He’s one of those guys you never know what he is going to say next, not to mention what tricks he may amaze you with.  He’ll do whatever it takes in pursuit of a laugh, or not, and he was there on my very first day of stand up. I know we’re going to have a talk like none other.  Hell, thats my plan anyways, ladies and gentlemen, my buddy, Zack Cordes!!

Speaking of guns!

Now don’t get me wrong, I am a firm believer in the 2nd amendment but sometimes you gotta be smarter than the gun and more importantly smarter than the 12 year old.  Let me tell you a story about covering your tracks.

Once upon a time, my paw and mom let me stay home from school because I was sick.  Sick my ass, I might have had a little cough or something but primarily it was just a matter of swindling mom into believing I was so very tick, sniff, sniff sniff, awww. Read more

First time I saw my next guest was at the defunct Rosebud Sunday night open mic.  He was hilarious then and he’s hilarious now.  He’s always struck me as full of angst and an underlying rage. I’ve never really known how to approach him.  But thanks to him, today we are on a mission.  A mission to discover what this guy is all about. People, this man needs no introduction, if you don’t know him, pfft you are nothing! Tedd Pettingell!  Say hello to the people man!

Agawho?

Posted on by Tommy Sunshine in Tommy's Blog | Leave a comment

So yeah, been a productive week for me in comedy this week for sho!  Got up 4 times so far and getting up tonight for the largest crowd I’ve ever been in front of.  Needless to say I’m excited.  Agawam, Mass. get ready for some Sunshine!  I’m basically having a bone thrown my way for providing the headliner a ride, but ya know what, I’ll take that shit every day!  5 minutes and an intro for the man!  When Spike asked me if I’d do it I told him, “Uh, yeah man, but well I don’t wanna fuck anything up for you…”  To which he replied, “Dude what can you fuck up in 5 minutes and its going to be a great crowd all there for comedy, its time to grow a sack and step up!”  Grow a sack my ass!  Realizing the opportunity I went from somewhat skeptical to 100% stoked!  Now where the fuck is Agawam!?  BFE thats where!

So in preparation of said trip, I’ve been drilling down the same 5 minutes all week.  Starting off with 2 minutes at Sally O’s on Monday, I worked on 3 quick jokes.  Tuesday at the Skellig was almost tear worthy.  I used the whole set I have planned for tonight and well, got shit for laughs.  There was one guy at the bar who was digging it, but the rest were kinda just spent I guess.  I talked myself outta beating myself up too bad as noone got good laughs that night ‘cept for a couple of the working comics.  Wednesday night was at the Tavern at the end of the World and my set went off great! It had been a long minute since I’d been there and just had a great time.  And of course, last night I got up at Grandma’s and it went well again.  So I’m hot and ready to beam out some big fat rays of  Sunshine for the big night baby! Can’t wait! Guess that brings the tally up to 110.  Still wondering when I’ll just quit bothering keeping track.  Its just too hard not to look back and keep the tally up.  Ahh well.

#SOMSHO

Oh yeah!  Its Podcast Friday! Come back in a couple hours and listen to myself and the hilarious Ted Pettingell talk ’bout coming up in Boston comedy and some too personal to talk about in a podcast shit.  Oh, here is an interesting note and a shout out to one of my favorite champions of comedy, Kyle Ploof who produces the Ploof is in the Pudding Podcast.  @KylePloof just dropped his latest podcast on Tuesday and his guest just happened to be @TedPettingell as well.  At one point the podcasts are almost an exact feed with different hosts.  But go check Kyle’s talk out with Tedd too, its right here!
