Matt Kona

This episode of the Boston Shit Show features the incredibly hilarious comedian Matt Kona, dropping by to plug his Roast Battle Boston coming up this Thursday!

Matt Kona comes by the Front Room studio to talk about the upcoming Roast Battle he's put together, going down this Thursday, January 28th at the Davis Square Theater in Somerville, MA. Josh and Matt discuss the format of the battle and how he matched up the contenders. 

The guys take a couple pokes at Chris Nakis, who mysteriously lammed it out of Boston.

The question of what sitcoms you wish you could have been on arises and some classics are discussed, leading into a conversation about the many brilliant projects of Ricky Gervais & Co.

Matt tells the story of how doing a 90-second set got him a spot opening for Craig Robinson (of The Office) at the Wilbur Theater in Boston.

Some classic Roasts and Roasters are discussed; they get back to the format of the Roast Battle with specifics on the comics and as if they were part of Matt's new found love, the MMA/UFC, and how the Battle is "No Holds Barred" - everything is roastable!
The show closes up with Matt talking about serving Grand Jury duty in Salem...
for THREE AND A HALF MONTHS.

HAPPY NEW YEAR WITH TERENCE PENNINGTON!

HAPPY(?) NEW YEAR!

Fortunately and appropriately enough, to kick off Season 2 of the Boston Shit Show, the amazing, unique and beautiful Terence Pennington, Jr. comes into the Front Room Studio to discuss new year resolutions, among other things, for the inaugural 2016 episode.

To kick the whole Shit Show off, Josh and Terence talk about performing at "100 First Jokes V" at Improv Boston (produced and hosted by the heroic Dana Jay Bein) on New Year's Day and the writing collaboration of Terence's first joke of the new year. We hear some background about Terence witnessing the police shooting of an innocent dog in the projects and how there actuallyare very lovely public parks in every area. Some horrible Google-ing enSues--for like, the whole show.

Terence does his impersonation of Josh's Andrew Dice Clay-inspired character, Andrew Dice Cambridge, which has finally been published in the Boston Institute for Non-Profit Journalism technology (, etc.) publication The Boston Bubble.

The New Year resolutions finally come out. Terence wants to step it up with the ladies and get one for more than a few months, now that he knows what he wants; Josh claims he's going to get back into stand up in addition to doing this ridiculous podcast;

The Italian plumbers under the Front Room warp their way into the podcast zone.

Terence prompts Josh to make a resolution to stop dating "psychopaths", and they both want to start saving some money. 

Josh explains why he doesn't donate his old clothes to Goodwill; the fellas reminisce about the good old days of the King's Open Mic, and lament the musicians that performed there.

The goddamn infamous Josh v. Chinese woman story comes up, BECAUSE THEY'RE OPEN! FACT!

Josh proposes a new holiday schedule for America, then brings up that "Black Lives Matter" had to become a phrase to get attention yet people are still obsessed with reality TV stars and what the fucking Kardashians are doing ALL DAY, EVERY DAY.
