About this episode
Al began getting work at comedy clubs and within a year won the $100,000 Comedy Grand Prize on television’s Star Search. Doing the Tonight Show was a childhood fantasy so he auditioned and luckily became one of the last comics to appear with Johnny Carson. He then went on to make a bunch of appearances on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and the Late Show with David Letterman. He is the subject of a new subject of the documentary, Mentally Al.
Jon Fisch is a Comedy Cellar regular and has a new album called HINGED.
