Juskow in the City

Cool for Cats

Season 4, Ep. 136
•

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice - don't even think about saying it again as I went to the Upper West Side to see the extremely fun sequel with friends who were extremely late. Grrrr. Also, seeing the band Squeeze in Central Park - well not seeing them - hearing them while walking around Central Park in the dark, which was incredibly entertaining, even though all the bathrooms were locked. Lame. And finally, a late night ride on the Boulevard of Death. That truly is what Queens Boulevard is called and even though it may feel safe in the dedicated bike lane, that nickname alone, stays with you.

  • 138. Hans Christian Andersen Gets Cancelled

    56:33||Season 4, Ep. 138
    Today's riveting true story of the time Hans Christian Andersen spent a few weeks at the house of Charles Dickens and did some despicable things. Oh it's true. I'm a college professor - this is what I research. Also, an old fashioned "Fudgie The Whale" carvel cake saves the day and the awful walk underneath the stupid 7 train in Queens. A Juskow in the City boroughs episode. Let's Go Mets!

  • 137. Know Which Side Your Bread is Buttered on

    01:00:14||Season 4, Ep. 137
    "You're not going to believe this". . . he said in Juskow in the City like terms. . . If you're a listener to this podcast -- another classic grated cheese like incident at the diner. Of course if you've never listened, you'd be like. . . this sounds dumb but. . . we know 😉. Also, performing at the Broadway Comedy Club where the overflow audience is actually on the stage with you; and the long Monday Night where I may have found a new happy place that likes Broadway and Football. Where have you been all my life? 😅

  • 135. Wreck on the Highway

    59:26||Season 4, Ep. 135
    This week the first tailgate of the season at the Meadowlands and forgetting that ears get sunburnt too. And what is magic meat dust? Then the big first Monday Night game of the season and Disney has decided not to air it so all the bartenders lose out on a profitable evening you jerks. And finally, the president comes to town and almost ruins my day - as usual.

  • 134. Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out

    57:02||Season 4, Ep. 134
    On today's episode, it's the first day of class again in the classrooms I have apparently been banished too. BUT, lo and behold my old students rally around to have me move to where I belong. Isn't that nice? Also, major stomach issues on the train where me and the mayor's of Red Bank and Asbury Park, NJ all had a lovely Day at the Races and a picture with jockey great, Paco Lopez in the winner's circle. And finally, my car finally dies. Just shuts off in the middle of Tenth Avenue. YIPES! But, great podcast fodder so. . . you're welcome.

  • 133. Greetings from Asbury Park

    01:11:56||Season 4, Ep. 133
    It's the Season 4 premiere of Juskow in the City and welcome back everyone. Today on the podcast, a day at the races and two concerts; also a trip to Roosevelt Island, my new awful classrooms on campus and the incredible Chinese food lunch I can't stop looking at pictures of. It's also my first time at the legendary Springsteen house of worship, The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ.

  • 132. The Blue Note/Comedy Cellar One Two Punch

    01:01:16||Season 3, Ep. 132
    My Birthday show at the Comedy Cellar at 6:00 pm on a Tuesday night was a sold out classic of epic proportions. The energy was incredible, the lineup was stellar and the "this is your life" Juskow crowd was the greatest way I've celebrated a birthday in a long time. The night before opening for Quest Love across the street at the Blue Note was hilarious and all in all - an amazing way to end our season finale of Juskow in the City.

  • 131. The "Get Your Shinebox" Scenario

    58:11||Season 3, Ep. 131
    Today on the podcast I take on another aggressive Taxi Driver and save a girl from a touchy troublemaker at the bar. Hmmm, that's very much like the actual movie, "Taxi Driver". How do you like that? Juskow in the City "Man's Up" in this birthday episode. Ironically, I run into a woman who saw me play a Taxi Driver in a play in college and although my one line, "Excuse me did somebody order a cab" received an applause break, it did not leave me with a love of Taxi Drivers. Cause they blow.

  • 130. Billy Joel Madison Square Grueling

    01:07:36||Season 3, Ep. 130
    This week we head to Madison Square Garden once again to see Billy Joel's final residency show, which was pretty disappointing (and that's a polite word for what I wanted to use). Also, shouting the name "Kevin" ala "Home Alone" to the guy named Kevin at Lowes because he was pissing me off was hilarious (you know, for me). And being disappointed again on Saturday for not getting to see two 80's rockers in Sammy Hagar and then, get ready, John Cafferty? I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who cares about the latter. But. . . .
