Needless to Say...

The guys just can't stop comedians from showing up in Dave's garage. This week, local great (and new friend) Cory Gee, who spent countless hours prepping with our old episodes, and zero seconds fitting right in. As expected, the guys cover a wide range of topics, but it seems like all roads lead back to Tom Selleck.  --- #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily #corygee #ricomedyconnection #tomselle...

This week's episode nearly faced its own case of mortal combat, but somehow Craig salvaged most of it. Joined by Jade (of Comic-Con fame), the group reviewed the classic Italian film, "Escape from the Bronx," and got nearly as distracted as the directors. Chaos ensues, in all the best possible ways.  -- #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily #escapefromthebronx #enzocastellari www.needlesstosaypod...

This week, Brad is back from Metal and Beer Fest, and he comes back ... bored? But that didn't stop the guys from continuing the musical debate throughout the episode. They also discuss chain restaurant proms, bowel control, mustache decorum, and much more.  --- #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily #decibelmetalandbeerfestival #motherofgraves #dismembersweden #breadends www.needlesstosaypodcast....

This week, with Brad away at his annual metal and beer festival, the guys decided to cover a lot of new ground. Some episode titles they considered?  Duckbill Mattapus. An Abundance of Sporks. Holeslaw. Buttery Teeth. But after hearing (again) how little Craig works, they decided on this one. -- #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily  www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www.ntspodcastgear.com

For months, Brad hasn't had much to say during the weeks in review. And this week, that's still the case. Except for the 45-minute movie, superhero, and pop culture detour the guys took through his week. Every now and then, these guys have a point to make. (No, really.) Tune in, check out, power up.  -- #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily #tubi #blackwidow #florencepugh www.needlesstosaypodcast...

This week, the guys decide too much time has elapsed since reviewing a horrible Tubi movie. And boy did they make good on it, thanks to the artistry of this week's selection, "Demon of Paradise." So make some popcorn, grab a beer, and listen to the guys Siskel their Eberts pretty hard for Hawaiian Filipinos and a dude in a rubber suit. -- #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily #tubi #demonofparadi...

Another week, another guest, another deep dive into some serious nonsense. This time around, new friend Al brings a new perspective on comedy after taking the same workshop you've heard about for eleventeen straight episodes. But the guys also get to weigh in on a huge new Matt work story, and Brad receives more vindication for the ongoing Elizabeth Olsen/Tom Selleck debate. Smoke up and tune in. ...

This week, the guys are separate... but whole. In fact, if you sound out that first sentence, you have an idea of where this week's episode lives. Whether the wind was coming from Mother Nature or Dave's couch, the guys spend a LOT of time having a breezy discussion about whatever blew across their minds. And which openings they came from.  --- #colonoscopy #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily w...

Four guys. Two movies. One celebrity death. One roundup (!) Some would consider this the perfect recipe for disaster. And they'd be right. From Gene Hackman to SNL 50 to another horrendous Tubi selection, the guys had a lot to choose from this week. And they chose "all of the above." -- #snl50 #genehackman #celebritydeath #saturdaynight #comedypodcast #RIcomedy #podernfamily www.needlesstosaypodca...

Too many of the NTS guys are dabbling in standup comedy these days. So it's always good when an actual professional stops by to remind them of how it's done. This week, international touring comic, actor, and Scorcese-favorite Doug Key sits in to do some deep and meaningful skull topics. If Doug seems familiar, that's because his first full-length comedy special "Mother of the Year" recently premi...

This week, on a very special Needless to Say, the guys rally around Craig after his startling admission of having ADHD surprises absolutely no one. Then, to make things worse, the guys keep interrupting his big reveal every time he's about to have a genuine, heartfelt moment. Also, Brad embraces "too soon," Dave realizes what he married into, and Matt really needs to read a second book.  -- #comed...

Barely a month after "getting back to normal" the guys decided they missed doing movie reviews. Especially since Dave has more than redeemed his reputation with this one. Sit back and enjoy a thorough breakdown of the cult classic "Winterbeast"... starring one actor, six extras, four puppets, and 11 years between takes.  --- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #podernfamily #wint...

This week, Brad's on a break, so the recently appendix-free Manny makes his triumphant return to the airwaves. But with Matt's paranoia dominating the conversation, it was hard to tell. Well, at least until he fell backward into Dave's bathtub. Tune in. Turn up. Find out.  --- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #podernfamily  www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www.ntspodcastgear.com

By a show of hands, how many people have been waiting for one of the guys to go off and have a monster rant about minimal things? Yeah, that's we thought. Fans of Matt's unhinged rage, buckle up. This week, he goes off on more than a few items, with all the grace and discretion you've come to expect. The other guys have things to say, too. But that's not important right now. --- #comedypodcast #hu...

After months of holidays, events, and special episodes this week, the guys attempted to get back to "normal." That is until they realize they don't really know what normal is. But thanks to their guest John, they still find a way to make Craig feel bad about his childhood. Happy New Year, folks. It's year EIGHT of NTS. Here they go again... --- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor...

It's time for Needless to Say's EIGHTH Christmas episode. And that means, group stories, movie recaps, and arguably the finest edition of NTS Jeopardy yet. Each year, the Christmas episode is a love letter to our listeners, and this is the stickiest one yet. Take that as you will. Merry Christmas, everyone! -- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #podernfamily #christmaspodcast ww...

Just days before Christmas, one man down and three others fighting the plague, the NTS guys still managed to piece together another few hours of gold. If you're into discussing DayQuil, digestion, and occasional infidelity, this is an episode well worth checking out. -- #ricomedyconnection #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #podernfamily #christmaspodcast www.needlesstosaypodcas...

The holidays are in full swing, and the guys are feeling festive. Brad doesn't want any more real Christmas trees, Matt doesn't want any more $20 charity tacos, Dave doesn't want his dad to be part of any more comedy routines, and Craig doesn't want the seasonal magic to end. Let's do this, already... -- #ricomedyconnection #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #podernfamily #chris...

Fifty percent of NTS has graced the standup stage recently (with one more on the way). It's time to take a deeper dive with the guy responsible -- internationally known comedian Brian Beaudoin. We met him at RI Comic-Con, but now everyone gets a chance to meet the man behind the laughs. Of all the times a guest has eaten a banana on air, this was easily the funniest.  -- #brianbeaudoincomedian #wi...

The guys are fully back to "normal" ... at least for one week, anyway. And that means everything you've ever enjoyed about Needless to Say is back on the table. No movie reviews. No nerds. Just them......... (God, let's hope there's another Comic-Con soon.) --  #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #podernfamily  www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www.ntspodcastgear.com

You can't accuse the NTS guys of not milking a good thing. After two months' of Halloween movies, bad scripts, and on-the-scene clips, the guys finally sit back down to recap their trip to the nerd state fair -- Rhode Island Comic-Con. You've heard the audio, you've seen the pics. Consider this the final statement on the great unwashed before returning to "normal" next week.  -- #piantaveganrestau...

All good things must come to an end. But it's even better when we end strong. All weekend, we shared space with the amazing, mind-changing, stomach-filling awesomeness of Pianta Vegan Restaurant, who turned egg rolls into conversation pieces. But even better than the Buffalo Chickpea was Pianta's owner and head chef, Michelle, who closed out our weekend in grand fashion.  -- #piantaveganrestaurant...

Living in the smallest state in the union means it's pretty easy to run into local legends. Which is exactly what happened when Dave spotted RI's finest weatherman Tony Petrarca walking by the booth. But (after Matt chased him away with words) things got even better when we realized the amazing people next door were related to him. Enter... the Ghost Toad. #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcas...

For everyone who has attended a Comic-Con, you know that Sundays are always chaos. People try to cram in as much nerddom as they can handle... and occasionally stop by a booth with live microphones. Here's the evidence. -- #comedypodcast #humorpodcast #funnypodcast #darkhumor #podernfamily #RICC #ComicCon  #ricomiccon www.needlesstosaypodcast.com www.ntspodcastgear.com

Closing out the "fellow podcasters" section of our recap comes the Brutal Dudes -- which is almost redundant when a show is based in Philadelphia. Now, we already have our doppleganger show (in the form of the amazing Official True Story Bros). But if we had to pick another, I'm pretty sure its these beer fanatics who have so much brotherly love to share, they can't help smearing a little on ya. ...
