Good Comedy for the Road? One thing I've found that's enjoyable on road trips is a good comedy track. I don't like the books on tape because you have to pay attention and I tend to day dream while I drive (or play passenger). Comedy routines are great because you only have to catch a line or two - and you're good to go. So any recommendations out there? I'd love to download some for the ol' iPod.

How about some Bill Hicks? I know his stuff way too well.

We play our Eddie Izzard "Dress to Kill" video monthly, and bust a gut no matter how many times I've seen it. Very visually funny so I'm not sure if the audio CD will be quite the same, but it's perfect for short attention spans cuz the guy has serious Attention Deficit Disorder. Robin Williams produced the video, which makes perfect sense. http://www.eddieizzard.com

+1 For Bill Hicks - still my favourite comedian of all time, Rant in E-Minor, Arizona Bay, Dangerous - all classics.

Got to get the Jerry Sienfeld CD. It is a bunch of his standup stuff; all very funny and still topical.

Denis Leary. Of course, even comedy can be dangerous on the road, especially if you are "an asshole."

League of Gentleman BBC Radio audio tape. A must if you have not seen/heard them before.
