Stand-up comic Kevin Meaney discusses The Clapper and parents who always wanted him to be Wayne Newton. ("Now go upstairs and learn the words to 'Danke Shoen'.")
Young stand-up comic Barry Sobel performs on a 1987 comedy special. Barry was the only white comic on this predominately African American program. The audience was mostly black, all the other comics were also, making Sobel's act even funnier. As you'll see the crowd loved him.
A signature tune from MTV's early days. Great 80s sound, cheesy concept video in the style that was so popular in that era. Welcome back to 1983, folks.

I consider this the funniest stand-up bit in history. Kevin Meaney lip-synchs "We Are the World" using nothing but facial expressions and a few props. He even manages to include Dan Aykroyd (why was Aykroyd even IN that video????) Enjoy.
