Jim Earl is probably the funniest guy you’re not paying attention to. Not only should you listen to him every week on The Jimmy Dore Show, but buy his book “Mourning Remembrance - a collection of sarcastic obituaries ripped from the deadlines.” The clip above is from the January 11th, 2013 Jimmy Dore Show with a obituary for Huel Howser.
I was introduced to the comedic genius of Jim Earl way back when on Morning Sedition on Air America. His Mourning Remembrance skit (complete with “I must have allergies” crying-bit played off perfectly between him and Marc Maron), as well as other characters like Sammy the Stem Cell brought happiness to my mornings. I followed Jim and Marc when AAR gave Marc his own show. Then Jim disappeared from my radar. I was thrilled when he popped up on live WTFs with Marc and is an awesome addition to The Jimmy Dore Show - doing Mourning Remembrances the way they should be done, live, in Jim’s great voice.
Go to Jim Earl’s Big Page of Crap and check him out. You’ll love it. And if you don’t, go fuck yourself.
