A Little Bit Me with Ted Alexandro 005 Tribute to William Stephenson with Marina Franklin
Join Ted for a very special celebration of legendary comedian, host and funk master William Stephenson who passed away recently at age 61. Ted relates the major impact William had on not just Ted's life and career but on that of every New York comedian over his many decades doing stand up and hosting comedy shows in clubs across NYC. Featuring audio clips of some of Williams' shows, including some from his final set at the famous NY Comedy Cellar, Ted recalls some of his fondest memories of William, from the thrill of the first time he was acknowledged by the famous curmudgeon. to the joy of eventually making him laugh to the days when they finally became friends and William agreed to host Ted's most recent special. Hear tales of William's famous distain of celebrity, his love of music, and his legendary irritability that always kept comedy club crowds entertained (and in line). Then in the "Catch Up" Ted cold calls Marina Franklin, one of William's many NY comedian friends, to try to get some of her memories of William - and he eventually get through! Then in a William-themed "Grading My Marriage" Ted's wife gets a food order from William from beyond the grave.

Ted brings you deep inside his very full beard and week performing all across NYC from the world-famous Comedy Cellar to the CBGB's of comedy, the Creek and the Cave where he's doing a month long residency, to the deep healing of his brother Rich's QED Show "Let's Talk About Mental Illness", where performers including Ted and his multi-talented family opened up about their experiences and triumphs around mental illness. Then in a special Father's Day epistle Ted appreciates the men in life who just do what needs to be done for the sake of their loved ones. Next, it's a rundown of the star-studded release party/comedy show for the new Greg Giraldo book A Comedian's Story by Matt Balaker, including Ted's reminiscence of Greg cracking the nut of how to return to a NY comedy stage after the tragic events of 9/11. Then in the season's final "NBA Roundup" Ted celebrates the greatest thing to happen to Canadian basketball since the invention of basketball, Kawhi Leonard and the Toronto Raptors downing the Golden State Warriors in 6 games to win the title. And finally in "The Catch Up" Ted cold calls Myq Kaplan finding him disappointed to be at brunch and unable to talk, and then blesses the hilarious Carmen Lynch with a perfect post-vacuuming excuse to procrastinate from her writing!
