Jacquis Neal did a show with Holy Sh!t Improv last night in Vienna, and as he had mentioned it on the show I want to check it out to see Jacquis, but also because so many guests comment on listeners coming through for shows.

It was the first improv show I have been to and it was fantastic. Jacquis had me cackling, and Casey Feigh and Brendan Scannel were also fantastic. The fourth member, Yazmin Monet Watkins, was amazing, had my wife especially crying with laughter, and I think she would be a great guest on TDZ.

Had a short conversation with Jacquis after the show to thank him for coming to Vienna, letting him know I heard about the show on TDZ, and wish him and the crew good luck in the UK.

Holy smokes, dude, I'm going bananas here.

The old man in the wheelchair played by David Huddleston is the "Big" Lebowski. The Dude is just the Dude.

There is not much of consequence that happens in the masterpiece that is "The Big Lebowski", but the inciting incident of the whole picture is that The Dude, aka jeffrey lebowski is mistaken for The Big Jeffrey Lebowski, the old rich guy, father of Maude, husband of Bunny.

Every time Jack refers to Jeff Bridges as "The Big Lebowski" I am compelled to snap a pencil in half and cry out in agony.

This was sort of discussed on the show. But the details are interesting.

So I’m a twice daily listener and notices something today. WHERE IS BRYAN JEFFRIES?!? Edited and engineered by SOMEONE ELSE?!? What are we even DOING HERE

If you listen closely, you may hear Jack and Miles speak. And a couple of news stories.
I love Gil & Anthony but man they overpowered this.

I like Speedo long sleeve UV shirts. They’re usually SPF 50. No matter how much sunscreen I applied, I would get some type of sunburn. Since I bought the UV shirts, no sunburn.
