Bridgeport comic subs on PM drive in CT

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on February 18th, 2007

Comedian Johnny Rizzo was featured in the Connecticut Post the other day. His regular substitute host gig on WICC was the topic.

Turns out Rizzo has been subbing for Smith on and off for the past year.

“About a year ago, I went down to WICC to be on the Brian Smith show,” Rizzo told me this week. “You know, sit in, plug my gig, say a couple of funny lines and leave. Brian extended the invitation to stop by any time. So any time it was. I was there almost every free weekday I had.”

We’ve been pleased to provide a helf-dozen segments on the show over the past several months, doing “The SHECKYmagazine Report,” providing the latest in standup news for central CT radio listeners. Hop onto WICC’s website to listen live.
