Happy Holidays everyone and an early Happy New Year to you all! To celebrate the end of a great year for me and my podcast I have put together this special BEST OF show FILLED with clips from a ton of the great interviews I did all year! If your’e a fan of A Shot of Yager you will love this compilation of all my great guests from 2011.
Since 2011 is coming to a close, and everyone seems to love these end of the year lists, I figured I’d end off by featuring the Top 20 Top Tweets of 2011. Sound good? If you didn’t get a chance to see every Top Tweets, here’s all of my favorites. Enjoy.
Top Tweets is back in action with writer, thinker, and retired Trombone player Tim Siedell. He already has 554,000 plus followers and he’s earned every single one of them. Let’s get him some more.
A couple of years back, Bo Burnham (@boburnham) caught some fire. A kid in college, with a guitar just making the most hysterical Youtube Videos you could ask for. He’s got 400,000+ followers and deserves every one of them. Bo might be internet famous already, but we’re gonna help out his cause.
Jim Breuer is a comedian who became world famous by starring in the stoner comedy Half Baked and playing a variety of characters on Saturday Night Live including his most recognizable…Goat Boy. He continues to perform around the world today and also hosts his own radio show and podcast. Recently he produced a film following his life on the road while taking care of his aging father, an emotional journey not expected from a guy who got famous by screaming “Metallica!” on stage.
A couple of months ago, Rob Delaney (@RobDelaney) was our featured Tweeter of the week. We try not to do repeats, but Rob has been making some serious headlines lately that he plans on suing Kim Kardashian over her wedding. To show our appreciation, here’s 2o more hysterical Tweets from Rob Delaney. Our first repeat ever, and well deserved.
“Children’s Hospital” is a hysterical show on Adult Swim held down by two of my favorite comedians named Rob: Rob Corddry and today’s Top Tweets star, Rob Huebel. I haven’t caught much of Rob’s stand-up, but the next time he swings through New York, I’m there. The dude has 276,000 Followers and has earned every one of them. Don’t believe me? Read on?
Everyone has seen Christian Finnegan on Best Week Ever, Comedy Central Presents, or any of the giant multitude of places he has has done comedy. It’s unfortunate that I never came across his Twitter (@ChristianFinnegan) until today, because he has always been a favorite of mine. So why not make up for lost time by sifting through his feed, and giving you his Top 20.
Anthony Jeselnik (@AnthonyJeselnik) will be a household name, and as usual, I have proof. Anthony’s Twitter made me laugh, cry and desperately need to take a long cold shower, all at the same time. He may not have that elusive check mark yet, but keep killing it dude. Here’s a little help on our part.
