Re-Posting Sideshow 122 - TONY V - The Comic, The Legend, The Trivia Question

Carnival Personnel

Come see the great Tony V. THIS Friday Sept 13th at The China Blossom in N. Andover MA, where he’ll be hosting and headlining night one of CFP’s Wicket Funny’s 2nd annual “Funniest Person In Merrimac Valley” contest – Jacques (and former CPP guests Wayne Russell from Open Mic Pain Podcast and Lauren Simms) will all be participants in.

A lot of great stuff has happened with Tony since being on our podcast in March. Now, we’re not saying ALL of it is a result of being on our podcast but we’re not, NOT saying that either. Hey, the “CPP Bump” as it’s known industry wide, has really helped a lot of careers … according to our own research (which is proprietary and we won’t be sharing with the class.)

Sure, it could be part strategic self-serving scheduling on our part back in March. It COULD be part coincidence. And sure, an argument could be made that these things have come about due to a life time of hard work by Tony and him being one of the best comics to ever come out of the greatest city for stand-up comedy ever. BUT his “Life Time Achievement” award from Jim McCue & The Boston Comedy Festival this year DID happen after being on our podcast. His ridiculously funny Comedy Dynamics special, “Wait Till You Hear This” did come out on Apple TV, Amazon Prime (and dozens of other places) AFTER he was on CPP. Tony was also prominently featured on the very cool John Tobin Productions launch video for their “Lil Chucks” comedy club and also, when Jacques was in LA a few weeks ago, Tony did get to co-host with the very talented Gus Vireiros at The Yard Theater in Hollywood an amazing show with Bobcat Goldthwait, again all this happened AFTER having been on CPP ... and now, this Friday’s Wicket Funny CFP hosting headlining gig … come on.

Hope you can get a ticket for what will be a sold-out show on Friday.
