2022 was the beginning of the grand return to normalcy in many ways, and for comedy: there was a lot to look at and even more we missed. From big comedies tentpole comedies like Jackass Forever and Everything Everywhere All At Once, to smaller scale send-ups like Daniel Radcliff in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story or Jon Hamm in Confess Fletch, the comedy film was visible but sometimes fleeting. Plus, we pour one out to the big comic icons lost in 2022 including Bob Saget and Gilbert Gottfried, and talk about the contraversies that most blew our mind - Kenan vs Chris Redd, Will Smith's slapgate and the great SNL cast exodus. Joining Vic is podcaster from The Movie Gap Chase Austin, who has seen more than his fair share of media this year both good and bad - perhaps due in no small part to his wife.

2021 was... more of the same, wasn't it? Sure, there was a vaccine - but from the mindset of creating comedy, we're still in a pandemic, live performance is a risky venture and all creativity seems to flow from a slimming few mega corporations. So, was there anything of value that slipped through the cracks. Vic is back with his favorite podcasting pal Chandler Dean to run through the gamut of comedy output for the past year: what films broke through a shrinking window? What TV stuck the landing in the end, was axed too soon, or started strong enough to warrant attention? Whatever happened to the stand-up special anyway? And what legends did we lose among the wreckage of this second hard year of COVID living? Plus, the bottom of the barrel stories barely fit to cover! But cover it, we shall. It's the 2021 reflection podcast! Originally recorded Jan 5, 2022. Hail Satire! is hosted and produced by Vic Shuttee.
Conversation #186, recorded on October 18, 2021. Ritch Shydner has a long history in the stand-up comedy game, appearing on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show and the early days of David Letterman. He's gone on to be a prolific comedy writer, working with Jeff Foxworthy, Jay Leno, Bill Maher, Roseanne and even Norm MacDonald. His return to stand-up was charted in the 2010 documentary I AM COMIC, and he helped compile great stories of the road in the essential comedy text I KILLED. Now he's putting his mind for comedy history to good use with his new one-man show A HISTORY OF STAND-UP COMEDY FROM THE CIVIL WAR TO TODAY: 160 Years of Standup in 90 Minutes. This one-of-a-kind crash course in comedy is a link to the past of the an art form that has never been popular and somehow not often understood. He's got shows at Yard Theatre on Melrose in LA on Oct 21 and 22, and will be booking more events across the country in late 2021. Hail Satire! is hosted and produced by Vic Shuttee.

2020 was an unquestionable nightmare for reasons beyond the purview of comedy... but this year of COVID will undeniably have long lasting implications on the world of entertainment for years to come. From the meager comedy films that trickled out in the theatres and on "Premium VOD" - looks like Bad Boys for Life was movie of the year, right? Late night shows went home and reunions from Parks and Rec, 30 Rock and more were filmed by family members. Some of the comedy's biggest legends passed away including Carl Reiner, Jerry Stiller, Fred Willard and Buck Henry... while other shows hit milestones and streaming became a lot more important. Plus a year of social upheaval brought to light bold new comic voices like Amber Ruffin, Sarah Cooper and shined a light on reliable ol' favorite like Sasha Baron Cohen and Jerry Seinfeld. Joining the year end wrap up in one of Vic's oldest friend, funny person and newly minted author of ECHOHEAD, Tommy Waas! Originally recorded December 28, 2020.
