More about this month's guests:
The Hunts are a husband and wife team: Nancy and Andrew Hunt. They make good real-deal country music that’s has been featured on NPR’s “Car Talk” and in the several films including “Loggerheads” which was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize in 2005 at The Sundance Film Festival.

Howard Fishman brings some New Orleans to Brooklyn. He made his NYC debut at The Algonquin Oak Room. Not a bad start. He’s since headlined at such prestigious venues as The Steppenwolf Theater, The Blue Note and even Friggin’ Lincoln Center. He’s been a featured guest on NPR’s Soundcheck, World Café, The Leonard Lopate Show, and Fresh Air with Terry Gross.

Craig Baldo is a very funny guy. You may have seen him on NBC’s Last Comic Standing where he was a season one finalist, or maybe you saw him on Late Night with Conan O’Brien or even Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. He’s also been on Comedy Central’s Premium Blend and makes frequent “snarking head” appearances on VH1 or Bravo. So you probably saw him on TV is what I’m saying.

Bob Powers is a writer of comedy in many forms but mostly in book form. He is the author of such books as Happy Cruelty Day, The Werewolf’s Guide to Life: A Manual for the Newly Bitten and You Are a Miserable Excuse for a Hero, which is being made into a movie even as we speak. There are no people who think Bob isn’t funny, but if there were, they would be dumb.
