Hi, this Alonzo Bowden, I want to welcome you to episode 172 of my podcast.

Who's paying attention? As always, I thank you for tuning in.

And I got to give a special shout out and a thanks to Bananas Comedy Club in Hasbrook Heights, New Jersey.

I was just there over the weekend, and I got the rust off.

I'm back on dry land.

As many of you know, I spent a month working the cruises,

jazz cruise, smooth jazz crews, 80s crews, et cetera. And it's a different kind of comedy

than what I do in clubs. So I made it back last week. I went to bananas, a little rusty,

but I got the feel. I loved it. That club's always a lot of fun. So a special shout out and thank you to bananas. A little rusty, but I got the feel. I loved it.

That club's always a lot of fun.

So a special shout out and thank you to bananas.

So last night, we're the Oscars.

And as you may or may not know, I'm not a big awards show guy.

You know, they're okay.

I get it. But it's not, well, obviously, I missed the show because I was on a plane. Let me tell you some. Anything that happens on a Sunday, I miss because I'm on a plane. Super Bowls, playoff games, award shows, the Walking Dead, you name it. Lanzo, did you see it? it now it was sunday i was on a plane like i said

i'm back to work back to my office the airport anyway so i missed this but i saw the highlights

because how can you not see the highlights i saw the screw up on best picture congrats to moonlight

that was great.

It's just funny.

And the winner is, oops, wrong envelope.

Shouldn't they have someone to check that?

But anyway, it worked out.
