31. When Did Cruise Passengers Stop Having Fun?

So, Tommy, uh, there's another instance out there of, uh, somebody wanting a Carnival comedian fired over the material that they're doing at the adult comedy show.

Now, the, the way I heard about this was on, uh, John Heald's Facebook page.

And, uh, I've said it before, uh, all love and proper respect to John Heald and the folks over there at Carnival, but I think they recycle some of these stories so that they can, you know, uh, you know, form the, the, the minds of those that follow that page.

Yes.

I, I, well, I d- I've only seen the infomercial.

You know, if, if, if they-

Yeah

... have you seen that? In the middle of the night-

Oh, yeah

...

they run the infomercial.

And I can't imagine how much more of the, the dang roast exists beyond the infomercial because I feel like I've watched endless hours of infomercial, uh, material based on those roasts.

Very, very entertaining.

And of course, the roast, I don't know when the modern-day roasts started happening.

If you look back at the Comedy Central, they were the ones who originated the new-

Oh, yeah
