Summary

Paul F. Tompkins graciously welcomes all NOT to the DMV, but back to SPONTANEANATION! This week, Pauls special guest is stand-up comedian Retta of Parks and Recreation! They chat about why a suit may be purple, believing that hookers were imaginary, and Retta's reasons for turning down a phone sex job. Paul is then joined by Maria Blasucci, Mark McConville, and Colleen Smith to improvise a story set at Houston's Restaurant in Houston, TX. And as always, Eban (only the best) Schletter scores it all on piano! SPONTANEANATION LIVE returns to Largo on Saturday, June 4th, with special guest Robyn Hitchcock! Tickets are available now: bit.ly/SPONT616
