It's an Unseriously replay with the one, the only JOOOOOEY SAAAATURDAY...er...Jose Sarduy. While Unseriously's on it's quarterly two-week break, let's go back and visit two of our favorite male guests--up next week, one you might not have guessed was as funny as he is, and this week, one you could've guessed was a riot. It's comedian Jose Sarduy.

*Fair Warning: Find Jose Sarduy's clean comedy specials with Dry Bar Comedy on YouTube here and here. Anywhere else is the wild, wild west...don't send me an email.

My Covid lockdown habit was Dry Bar with a side of Tiger King (what was yours?) and that's where I was first introduced to Jose. Since then he's managed to overturn the giggle box of my entire family and just about all of my friends, so it feels only right that he should've been invited to Unseriously.
I'd watch the Dry Bar specials with grown-up ears only first just to make sure you're good with them, but if they clear your content filters I can't wait to hear what lines your family latches on to.
Ladies and gentlemen, Joey Saturday.

You can keep up with Jose on his web site (including finding upcoming shows) or on his Instagram or Facebook. Heads up (per Jose) that tour dates at theaters and cruise ships are generally PG but bar or comedy club appearances where he's workshopping new stuff...not necessarily so much.

Put on your pantyhose and your Talbots 2-piece skirt suit and get ready to glow up for the Nerd Carnival--it's one of the Deep South's very own, bean connoisseur and Holly's brand new duo interpretation partner, comedian Mary Ryan Brown. Listen in and feel bad for guys actually named Greg as Mary Ryan and Holly delve into their oddball-similarities, including both a long-held affinity for Terry Gross and the knowledge of which Staples you have to go to to find that specific book.
This episode is chock-full of the joy that is Mary Ryan's comedy and quick wit, whether that's in giving new meaning to the term "tube sock," looking for the Whalt Disney Whorld adults with a sense of humor, or talking Mary Ryan out of a Tide pod...we're just going to presume you know her already - but if you don't - Unseriously is delighted to introduce you.
Mary Ryan and Holly will also have some dear moments you won't want to miss remembering Mary Ryan's grandmother, Dr. Frances A. Karnes, what makes Southerners so special, and the intersection of faith and comedy.
Find Mary Ryan on Instagram or at her web site, maryryanbrown.com. Local friends, note she's appearing at the Stardome in Birmingham on October 4th with Landon Bryant.
And here's that tomato soup recipe Mary Ryan talks about!
5-6 Roma tomatoes, sliced
1 can of butter beans, drained
1 can of Cannelinni beans, drained
1 orange bell pepper, sliced
1 whole head of garlic, covered in olive oil and wrapped in foil
1 whole yellow onion, quartered
Olive oil
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Salt
Pepper
Trader Joe's Soffrito seasoning

Combine all ingredients on a large sheet pan and roast for 45 minutes at 400 degrees. Blend roasted ingredients, then add one tablespoon of balsamic vinegar and vegetable broth or heavy cream to achieve desired consistency. Serve with a balsamic drizzle.

Amy Grimes is back on Unseriously! Holly and Amy had *so much fun* in Amy's first episode, Amy Grimes, Duchess of Chipmunk Hazzard, and you can find that one in season 2 of the show--but now it's time to welcome Amy back for a Get Serious edition.
Get ready to be spurred, encouraged, and left speechless with awe of how God made us--plus pick up some practical tips from Amy as to how to deal with creativity-killing thoughts that speak lies like "I am not impressed," or "This is a waste of time."
Amy's piece, "In Awe" can be viewed at this link on her Instagram.
Overcome negative self talk, reach for something beautiful, and oh yeah--have a little fun at the expense of ill-prepared public speaking--hope you enjoy this episode of Unseriously!
