Marshall Slayden, long time fan, frequent suggestion giver and offspring primus of Bill Slayden is on his way west. West to Oklahoma to fulfill his dream of succeeding in radio. Marshall hosted his second show for us on June 4, 2002. Yes, Marshall is second to Sean as an audience member host. He did a fantastic job both times and he will be missed. Good luck Marshall, Bill has already sent money to you so get there fast.

Josh is in Birmingham, AL now as is Brad. Josh performed for the final time on February 26, 2002. Brad performed the last time on stage back in 2001 but his car engine dying in Birmingham closed the deal on his return. Brad is in Alabama with his bride and Josh is in Alabama with high hopes. We wish both well.

Here's something you don't expect to get from a visit to an improv festival: a fiancée. Say what? Well, we went to the Memphis Comedy Festival and Brad hit it off with one of the performers from the troupe Torrential Downplay. Her name is Shannon Neil, but will soon be Shannon Neil-Hodson. Ya gotsta ta keep ya heritage. They make a charming couple as her raw power compliments his tender shy side. Neither one particularly enjoys wearing socks.
