We came prepared with bits, but boy did they not need them. I've known The Don't Spit guys, Brian Bowden and Steve Gadlin, for years as they are ex-Oxford, Ohio Tower Players. For those not in the know, that improv institution which has supplied Chicago with a plethora of talent. Andy Eninger (Band Geeks, Gayco), Heather Elam (Gayco), Matt Larsen (Paper Spaceship, Comedy Sportz), Larry Shure (The Playground), Becky Edridge (Band Geeks), Fred Mowery (WNEP), Stephen Gluck (WNEP), and many many others. Brian and Steve have put together a great show with a lot of talent which is a lot of fun. When we do a guest spot we come prepared with bits, but Steve, Brian, and the cast kept things so energetic from moment to moment that there was nary time, and when we did get into a bit, we were distracting from the energy of the show.
We did get one bit in, Justin claimed that he almost didn't make it because his doctor told him he shouldn't hold fluids in his mouth for long amounts of time, but he decided to forge ahead and play the game. He loaded his mouth with puke for the first one, and when he spit, it was gross vegetable soup puke. The last one, the speed round, Justin loaded his mouth with blood and sprayed me with it. I won a t-shirt they found at Walgreens that said "When God Created Black Women He Was Just Showing Off." Which is, like, the best t-shirt ever. Thanks for the good time Steev and Brian.
