"Tell you what, you take fresh water and electricity away from people...and they go f**** kookoo for coco puffs" ~Ralphie May
Before the professional quality studios, HD video, nutrition experts, and politicians, the show was literally just Joe sitting around and talking with his fellow comics. Newer listeners will be shocked when the signature intro isn't there, Redban is being childish, Joe has to google things himself, and they open every episode talking about the fleshlight.
While many of his comic friends would return multiple times, Ralphie May would only ever make this one appearance. May passed away in 2017.
Having rose to fame on NBC's Last Comic Standing, Ralphie details the pressure placed on him because of his weight and how he HAD to kill on stage every night or the producers would find a way to kick him off the show.
They go on to talk about things that would be regular topics in later episodes, such as new technology, UFOs, and conspiracy theories. Joe even gets into Bob Lazard's story, foreshadowing his interview on JRE years later.
