The Awful Show remembers a legend.
The Awful Show announced that their 106th show, airing live on Cringe Humor this Friday, will be a tribute to George Carlin who died this past Sunday.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reading, PA - The Awful Show will have a bittersweet beginning to their 3rd year in podcasting with Show #106 (airing Friday, June 27th 2008) being a dedication to the recently deceased stand-up comedian, George Carlin, who died of heart failure on Sunday, June 22nd 2008 at the age of 71.
George Carlin, most notably remembered for his "Seven Words You Can Never Say On TV", was an inspiration to all of the hosts of The Awful Show - Tha Mike, Nerraux, Keyz and Joel. His undying dedication to 'calling it like he saw it' helped to set the stage for the "no-holds barred" attitude The Awful Show holds dear.
"For me, he was a wonderful paradox. He obsessed on the negative that all see from time to time, but by doing so he gave me hope that someone else out there felt the same way and something might be done about it." says Awful Show host Nerraux. "He was a radical that told us we were right to question all the messed up stuff the older generation (ironically, his generation) told us was the status quo. The world is heavier now that George Carlin is gone, if you can dig it."
The Awful Show, just 2 days before Carlin's death, held its 2nd annual Anniversary Show. The anniversary show was almost postponed due to a lightning strike at the Reading, PA studio which blew out most of the equipment on Tuesday June 10th 2008, less than 2 weeks before it's scheduled airing. The Awful Show is putting forth an extra effort to rebuild the studio so that the Carlin tribute cast will be of the highest quality.
"This show will be a tribute to one of our fallen hero's George Carlin", said Awful Show host Tha Mike. "We all have so much love and respect for the man we thought it would only be appropriate". Tha Mike went on to say "Not even God can stop The Awful Show. Or stop all the laughter that Carlin has given us".
The live broadcast will begin at approximately 10 P.M. Eastern Standard Time on Cringe Humor Radio (http://www.cringehumor.net/radio.html) and will be available as a recorded cast beginning Saturday afternoon from The Awful Show's Home Page (http://www.theawfulshow.com/). It will contain many of George Carlin's classic bits along with a phone game themed around Carlin's "Seven Words You Can Never Say On TV".

About The Awful Show
The Awful Show basically started out as an idea in passing that avalanched into reality in a matter of days. In addition to the main show, the cast of The Awful Show individually records and releases their own weekly mini shows called "Awful Snacks." A typical show usually consists of a recap of the casts weeks, birthdays, emails, vmails, Nerraux News, a weekly interview with the likes of Johnny Brennan (Jerky Boyz, Family Guy), Jimmy Pop from The Bloodhound Gang, Michael Winslow (Police Academy) and Jim Florentine, to name a few.
The guys also play original weekly games against one another or with their audience called Screw Your Neighbor (SYN) or phone games Like Say It! or Price Check where they call anywhere from porn shops to Australian pet stores trying to get the clerks to say certain words or see who guesses closest to a price of an item.

2 Awful Years! Two years is a long damn
time to keep doing a show like this, and this was our night to play some favorite
clips from the past year and to thank you for helping us make it so great.
Thanks to Seamonkey and Seamonkette for helping us with our little skit! The
studio may still be crippled from the lightning strike two weeks ago; maybe
Nerraux had to leave in the middle for a family emergency; maybe the live
feed wasn't running very well; but all-in-all, we managed to eek out a decent
little show.
Raise your glass! Here's to two more years of fun and
laughs and whatever else may come.

Something 'Awful' coming to Cringe Humor Radio!
Cringe Humor Radio announces that The Awful Show will be joining the Cringe Humor Radio lineup, starting Friday, April 11, 2008.
New York, NY – Cringe Humor Entertainment Inc., today is proud to announce a new addition to its online radio programming. The Awful Show will be making its official debut on Cringe Humor Radio, Friday, April 11, 2008 at 10 P.M. east coast time.
The Awful Show brings a wealth of radio experience to the Cringe Humor line up. For almost two years the show has enjoyed success as a podcast, ranking them in the top 15 in iTunes’ comedy genre. They are also ranked in the top 5 on Microsoft Zune podcasts. All four members of the show have extensive radio credentials, including stints at highly rated radio stations around the country, college radio and even a NASCAR talk show.
“I often use the word ‘awful’ to describe my sense of humor,” explains Cringe Humor president, Patrick Milligan. “These guys have made a culture out of it. It’s always great to bring in people who aren’t afraid to make fun of everything, including themselves. They are a welcomed addition to an already proven line-up of radio programs.”
The Awful Show is headquartered in Reading, Penn., but two of the hosts are brought in live from different parts of the country. Although the cast is a tight knit crew, it’s important to point out that Tha Mike and Nerraux have only met Joel in person twice and Joel and Keyz have never met in person.
“I’m excited for what this means for the show,” says co-host Nerraux about joining the network. “Both in adding a better-quality live stream for our present listeners and the opportunity to expand to a greater audience.”
Already with a tremendous following, The Awful Show, is a fan friendly and loves interacting with listeners (commonly called the Bros and Hoes). They consider them their extended family. The show also has a rewards system called Awful Pennies for tasks that the audience does for the show.
“Since The Mediocre Show joined Cringe Humor I've been jealously listening to their flawless live audio stream,” says show host Tha Mike. “Now that we're finally getting the audio love we deserve, I'm proud of being part of an Awful Show broadcast on CringeHumor.net.”
“I consider this one of the greatest accomplishments we’ve had happen to the show thus far.”
