This Sunday we thought we'd let you enjoy a person who is the best standup in America. Years ago I dubbed him "The Pit-Bull Of Comedy" and it stuck. Bobby Slayton and I actually met for the first time when he approached me outside of a famous bistro 1970's called "Max's Kansas City" in New York City. I am told by Bobby that I totally shined him off, something he has never forgiven me for. In 1980 when I moved to San Francisco to work in radio, I was turned on to local comic. It was Bobby and we have been friends ever since.
I don't get to see him much because he is in Las Vegas all the time. If you go to Vegas you should go see him at the "Hooters Hotel and Casino" where he permanently hold downs his own room there.

Wow, Leonard, what a harsh comment. Probably not one of Slayton's better bits, to be sure. Once, when he was on Alex's morning show, though, along with Dana Gould and Kevin Meaney, I think, they all started to riff with each other. I was driving to work, and I was laughing so hard i sent coffee through my nose. Best morning commute I'd ever had. It was 1996. Thanks, Al.
I deleted Leonard's comment as I will any of his comments since he is just trying to say anything he can against me to no real good purpose. This blog isn't about me, it's about the subjects. So be warned Leonard, write all you want.... you will be deleted. Thanks Awatlate.
Delete all you wish. It shows what a phony leftist you are. Free speech is ok till it pisses on your corn flakes.
