He veers between boring/bored and pretty good, all within five minutes.

But he's actually told a joke or two in his life and therefore in a completely different class than reg d hunter

I was shocked about how the rest of the world knew about Rich Hall.

I asked my wife, "You don't know who Tommy Shaw is, but you know Rich Hall?"

Also, that isn't the "Live from the Apollo" that I'd heard of.

Had to look up Tommy Shaw. The Styx member? Why compare his fame with Rich Hall?

I keep hoping someone will upload to YT the early Comedy Channel promo with the mail guy delivering packages to the offices of all the shows. No luck so far.

Mail guy delivering a chicken to Rich Hall: "Hey Rich it says this'll help your act!"
Rich, deadpan: "I'm not working with a chicken."

Mail guy delivering to the Higgins Boys & Gruber: "Package for the coffee achievers."
HBs&G, digging into the coffee: "Coffee!"

Etc.

Someone, somewhere must have this on a tape!

This guy is one of those people who is way more famous in the UK than he is in America. The dude out of Fun Lovin' Criminals is another one of those people.

one year passes...

Just seen his new American Dream documentary on iplayer, not sure what to make of it overall, I think a lot of things needed backing up, like how the fifties situation is responsible for internet addiction. But I enjoyed it.

Beware the youtube upload, the sound cuts out occasionally.

this thread is really weird when you have confused Rich Hall with Rich Little in your head and don't have images on

I had no idea he had that many documentaries out (MetaFilter link to all of them on YouTube)

I think I've seen them all. Someone ought to clip his hilarious rant about Walk The Line.
