Male Half on late late night television
The Halves are so exhausted right now that we can’t post much more than this. Let’s just say that The Male Half is scheduled to appear on the CBS late night talk show Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on Friday, October 11, 2013. Check your Tivo menu for show times.
It’s a saga that started in June. And it accelerated on September 30. And it culminated in a taping last night… which was October 10… which also happens to be the 71st anniversary of The Male Half’s parent’s marriage… and the 31st anniversary of The Male Half opening for Steven Wright at the Comedy Works in Philadelphia… and Steven Wright was in the dressing room across from The Male Half’s dressing room because he was a guest on the first show taped last night… It’s all so spooky and “harmonic convergence-y” that we’re too tired to sort it all out.
But it’s going to be awesome and splendid. The crowd was raucous and the set went well.

Traci Skene Kindle Single hilariously skewers traditional social and sexual mores as well as modern feminism. "This book is a prime example of quality over quantity."
"This book made me laugh out loud! ”

Great appearance. Five minutes of solid, professional, standup comedy. (They should have allotted you time for ten minutes. Five minutes isn’t enough–it’s like taking only one or two bites from a chocolate bar and then putting it back.) The “Mile High” joke I thought was the funniest, because the punchline deviated so far from my expectations of what it might be based on the setup. Ferguson and his crowd seems like the perfect fit for your style of comedy…I hope they recognize that and have you back…
The Male Half replies: Thanks, Mr. Brandt! I am content doing just a short set… that means I don’t burn through that much material! Your analysis and comments are much appreciated! When we limoed up to the Television City campus and spied the audience lined up in the crisp fall afternoon, on Beverly Blvd., I briefly worried that they were maybe a bit on the young side. I was assured by the talent coordinator that they would be “a good mix.” He was right.
Hey, congrats. I know an appearance like that is the culmination of a huge amount of work and Zen monk-type commitment. Kudos to you. You deserve it.
The Male Half replies: Thanks! “It was a huge amount of work on both our parts!”
