Keeps the Whole World Laughing! Audio Review of ‘Joke Man’
Rating: 3.5/5.0 |
CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com audio film review for “Joke Man,” a documentary about Jackie Martling, the rapid-fire funny man who spent 18 years as a commentator and sidekick on the Howard Stern Show. Available on digital Video-On-Demand beginning July 18th.
The Joke Man is Jackie Martling, most famous as a sidekick on The Howard Stern Show. It was Jackie who fed Howard and his radio gang a string of ball busting and sick laugh lines during the course of his run. The documentary chronicles his long strange trip, from hippie rocker to the golden age of late 1970s comedy clubs to inventing his own dial-a-joke service, culminating in the highest pinnacle of radio entertainment. And through it all, the jokes kept coming … Jackie Martling can and will out-joke anyone.
