Comedy Vault: John Fox's 1983 New Year's Set- Show #287

Step into a time machine with this gem pulled straight from the comedy vault! We're bringing you road comic legend John Fox's electric performance from a 1983 New Year's Eve show at Laughs Unlimited in Sacramento, when comedy had no filters and stand-up was truly unrestrained.

Long before social media and cancel culture, comics like John Fox commanded stages across America with raw, boundary-pushing material that today's audiences might find shocking. Fox, who sadly passed away from cancer several years ago, represents the golden age of road comics - performers who built their reputations club by club, night after night. What makes this recording particularly special is that Fox was actually headlining above Yakov Smirnoff (who later became a household name) and Lois Bromfield, showing just how respected he was in comedy circles.

The episode also features delightful historical artifacts - original radio promotions for Laughs Unlimited and the Magic Hat Bar by Sacramento radio personalities Paul and Phil from Y92, later known as "The Answer Guys" on the Discovery Channel. These vintage spots transport listeners to an era when local radio DJs were cultural influencers and comedy clubs were becoming fixtures across America.

Fox's rapid-fire delivery and fearless approach to taboo subjects showcases why he was considered one of the best road comics of his generation. While his edgier material limited his mainstream television appearances, this recording preserves the magic that made him a favorite among comedy club audiences and fellow comedians alike.

Whether you're a comedy history buff or simply curious about how stand-up has evolved over the decades, this episode offers both entertainment and education. Take a trip back to a wilder time in comedy - you might be surprised by how much has changed, and perhaps by how much remains the same at its core.

This is another episode of Stand-Up Comedy, your host and emcee Celebrating 40 plus years on the fringe of show business Stories, interviews and comedy sets from the famous and not so famous. Here's your host and emcee, scott Edwards.

R. Scott Edwards: 0:22

Hi and welcome to this week's show. We have another fun bit of stand-up comedy for you. You may have heard, a couple weeks ago if you're a regular listener we had shared some great stand-up material from a 1983 New Year's Eve show that had Lois Bromfield and Yakov Smirnoff. Well, what's fascinating about that is, even though they're both terrific headliners, lois was the opening act in 1983, yakov Smirnoff, famous Russian comic, was the feature and the headliner, road-famous John Fox that's right, john Fox, one of the little bit dirty but funniest road comics ever to work the comedy circuit. You've heard them a lot on this podcast. Well, we have another treat for you. So from that same 1983 New Year's show here comes some live comedy by John Fox from that same show. Now, wait a minute, there's more than that to this episode.

R. Scott Edwards: 1:22

We also have a terrific radio promotion done by Y92's Paul and Phil. You'll remember them as the Answer Guys on the Discovery Channel and also they were like top DJs in Sacramento on Y92 for many, many years and we worked very closely together and they did this terrific promotion for the club and I'm going to play that. And then we'll segue into John Fox. And after John's set we have a terrific promo done by Paul and Phil again, only this one's for the Magic Hat Bar.

R. Scott Edwards: 1:58

This was a terrific pre and post-show location for entertainers and audience members to get together and meet, do autographs, take pictures. It was a lot of fun and it was called the magic hat because I had roaming magicians that would go around and entertain at each table doing closeup magic. It was a lot of fun. It was a terrific little bar. It lasted about 10 years, but this was a promo from back in the early 80s that Paul and Phil from Y92 did for radio. All right, enough explanation, let's jump into the show. Here comes the first promo by Paul and Phil from Y92. Enjoy.

You can hear why we did a lot of work with Paul and Phil. They were terrific radio hosts and very good friends to Laughs Unlimited, and I always appreciated working with them. All right, as I promised, here's some great stand-up comedy by one of the best road comics ever. He did some TV but he's a little edgy, as you're about to hear, and this is a New Year's show so it's a little spicy, but I think you'll enjoy it. Very funny road comic, famous coast-to-coast. Sadly we lost him to cancer a few years ago but a terrific entertainer and very, very funny. Ladies and gentlemen, john Fox live on stage.

John Fox: 4:14

Yeah he's on Showtime. He's also comedian of the year in LA. Ladies and gentlemen, john Fox, let's hear it for John Fox. Yay, how about a hand for Scott Edwards? He did really well on TV tonight. You may recognize Scott. He was the poster child for last year's syphilis drive. That was back there. So you guys obviously sound in a good mood. How are you?

John Fox: 4:50

It's blind dates or a bitch, aren't they?

John Fox: 4:59

Okay, buddy, if I want to hear it from the asshole, I'll fart. All right, this guy over here has got three girls. What are you, john Holmes or something? You know who? John Holmes is this lady? He's my idol. John Holmes is the guy with the 14-inch front that takes off his pants like a human tripod. This guy, he's got a heart on and he needs a blood transfusion. I can't understand what a guy wants with a 14-inch dick. I'm happy with a 12. I got huh Tanner. Now I've heard John Holmes has herpes and I figure if anybody's got him, he deserves them. It's probably the fucker that invented them. You think about it. You never heard of herpes 10 years ago. I think Leonard Nimoy ought to go in search of.

John Fox: 6:05

I think Leonard Nimoy ought to go in search of, in search of the first herb Found. Eating at Sambo's. You ever eat at Sambo's. No matter what you order at Sambo's, you're going to get pancakes. Can I have a salad with a thousand-dollar dressing? Do you want pancakes with it? Sambo's is being bought by Denny's now. Did you hear that? And they're changing the name because, let's face it, sambo's is a racial slur. So they're going to reopen as Denbo's.

John Fox: 6:43

People always write on bathroom walls that Sambo's and Denny's, don't they? Now, I never wrote on bathroom walls. One time I did, I was a kid, I was drunk, I was at a party. I'm sorry, I apologize, it'll never happen again. I'm in the bathroom. I've had a couple drinks, Smoked a little pot. I'm feeling pretty good. No one can see me now. Pull out the old felt marker right on the wall. Mary, whoa Mary, you have some pretty good hair. Then I realized I was in my own house. Explain that one to your mom and dad, all right, especially when your sister's name is Mary.

John Fox: 7:26

Went golfing today, had a terrible game. Best two balls I hit was when I stepped on a rake and I smacked him a mile. It was like boom All the way to Sambo. Do you want pancakes with these things. I'm a very clean human being. I want you people to know that from the beginning that I'm a very clean human being. My dishes are done. Know that from the beginning that I'm a very clean human being. My dishes are done, my carpet's vacuumed. My windows look good.

John Fox: 7:57

Now I don't know how this happened, but it did. Somehow my neighborhood became infested with rats. I'm not talking about your white sissy, experimental kind of rats. I'm talking about your hell's angel, fuck you kind of rats, kind with tattoos in her arm, just says eat shit. I'm talking about your Hell's Angel, fuck you kind of rats, Kind of with tattoos in their arm, just says eat shit. Somehow in the middle of the night, two of these rats busted into my house and gang banged my cat. I got three dozen crats I can't get rid of. They're cute, but they have these long fucking tails.

John Fox: 8:41

You stand in front of Thrifty and try and give these things away. Do you want pancakes with those things? Now, I like animals. In fact, last week I went to the zoo. If you go to the zoo lately, have you noticed when you go to the zoo an American zoo the animals there have lost their killer instinct? Polar bear has a look on his face like hey, that beats Alaska. Eat a couple marshmallows. Wave to a couple kids, call it a day. Got the penguin? He's all depressed. Huh, all dressed up, nowhere to go. Then you got the snake. He gets no respect at all, does he? The snake is like the Rodney Dangerfield of the zoo, isn't he? He's sitting there. What are you kidding? It's not easy being a snake, you know. The monkey took one. Look at me. He quit touching himself. I'll tell you.

John Fox: 9:45

Did you guys have a good Christmas. My mom got married on Christmas Day, remarried. I got her a negligee from Frederick's of Hollywood. See, that's a perfect name for a negligee store Frederick's of Hollywood. It wouldn't work if it was Frederick's of Bakersfield, would it? You pull up? There's a bunch of tractors parked out front, a bunch of farmers in there. There you got something in a crotchless overall. How about those edible panties that taste like corn? So I was reading this article the other day talking about this oil they've been finding in Mexico, turning Mexican farmers into oil tycoons, which I think is great. But I'm thinking repercussions. I'm thinking driving down the freeway and driving next to a guy with a lowrider Rolls Royce, the license plate holders. My other car is a Chevy, sitting in that little chain steering wheel singing. We got the Oyo, we got the Oyo and that's all that it takes. We got the.

John Fox: 11:01

Oyo so earn this gallo, pick your own fucking grits. See, I love those guys. Love those guys Because I went to a Catholic school that was like 90% Chicano, 90% Chicano Catholic school, our lady of the layered enchilada. It was a great school. Things took on a different interpretation in the school, Like I remember, our school plays Shakespeare Shakespeare in school, Like I remember our school plays Shakespeare. Eww, these guys should be like hey friends, hey romance. Envatos, let me your dingo balls.

Throw me some toilet paper. I ate at Sambo's. Do you want pancakes with those things? I'm from Los Angeles. Anybody here from Los Angeles? Do you want pancakes with those things? I'm from Los Angeles.

John Fox: 12:18

Anybody here?

John Fox: 12:20

from Los Angeles. La is a nice place to live If you're a muffler.

John Fox: 12:27

It's a lot different in Sacramento. You turn on the radio in Sacramento, you get news, weather and sports because that's all you need. La you turn on the radio you get news, weather and sports because that's all you need. La you turn on the radio, you get news, weather and sports and an extra bonus called the surf report. Convert a surf report into radio. It's delivered by these kids with an IQ level a grade lower than Bean Dip. These surfers come out and it's like oh wow, this is Scott in Santa Monica. Oh wow, this is Scott in Santa Monica, where the waves are three to four feet and they're really radical. So come on down and catch some rays. How are things in Newport?

John Fox: 13:12

This is Gookie in Newport, where the waves are three to four feet, and they're almost primo bitchin' so come on down and catch some rays.

John Fox: 13:23

How are things in San Francisco? This is Charles from San Francisco. The waves are so gnarly when it gets this rough, my nipples get real sore and my balls get real swollen. It just scares me. So why don't you just come on down and catch some rays? Or some bills or some Rogers Servers are great. Servers have their own vocabulary. You know what I'm saying. I'm not even sure the dictionary can understand these kids. The other day I looked up the word primo. It said see bitchin'.

John Fox: 14:33

You never see black guys surfing do you yeah? No, those are probably seals man, black guys don't surf.

John Fox: 14:49

You can't dribble in the water, motherfucker. I live right at the beach. I've never seen it. If black guys did surf, I'd like to hear a surfing port from someplace like Oakland Say, baby, this is All the waves out here, about nine, ten feet. I mean, these waves will kick your ass. I was out there yesterday Like one of these old, bleached out white dudes you know, fell off my board and lost my radio. Damn. Fell off my board and lost my radio, damn. Dan Rather told me that joke. I gotta ask you people a question. Is it me or have you noticed lately you go to McDonald's that every person behind that counter is the manager, and the cooks at these places are like did you want pickles on that burger? Why don't we hold that secret sauce for a while? All right, they swore that McDonald's got fired. Fired from McDonald's Said I needed more pimples.

John Fox: 16:29

Let's face it kids at McDonald's got pimples. I was at McDonald's, the other day kid had a pimple on his forehead so big he had a tourniquet around his neck. I thought it was a third eyeball up there. I said whoa, whatever you do, don't smile. Can you see out of that thing, or what? Can you see out of that thing, or what You've been? On fries a little too long, kurt. What are you bobbing for?

John Fox: 17:05

them now.

John Fox: 17:07

There's some weird people out there. I was at the airport the other day. I saw a guy walking around with a t-shirt that says I'm with stupid. You see any shirts. The guy was alone, didn't bother me until I found out he was my pilot. Pilots scare me. I'm coming from New York. Two weeks ago Seatbelt light comes on. Then the pilot touches me. This is Captain Winslow, as you've noticed, the seatbelt light is on. We're not approaching land, but it's on for your safety, say I cannot hold the steering wheel and my hash pipe at the same time. Did you hear about the guy they found floating on three bales of marijuana? Five miles out in the ocean they find this guy floating on three bales. The Coast Guard finds this guy. They interview him. The guy's crazy. It was a miracle. It was a miracle. I was out there on my boat. It capsized. I thought for sure I was the goner. Then, all of a sudden, these three bales of marijuana came floating up.

John Fox: 18:16

Harvard.

John Fox: 18:20

University just got caught giving cocaine to experimental rats. You hear about that. Humane Society found out about it. They're pissed off. Put them through the police hall. University had to free all these rats they were giving to cocaine. Rats came back in three days Said it was too tough on the outside. My next door neighbor lady takes diet pills. You ever take diet pills here. His eyeballs just big. Can hear a mosquito breathe in Kansas hear a mosquito breathe.

John Fox: 18:57

In Kansas my next-door neighbor lady takes diet pills, Says she takes them for extra energy. Went and visited the other day. She was vacuuming the toast. Gotta keep things neat, honey. I don't think she's gonna lose any weight. She's got an excuse for every day of the week why not? To start a diet? But we all do that, huh Like Tuesday, Cut it out. You can't start a diet on Tuesday. The weekend's coming up. This is a thin conscious world. I don't think it's fair. I think overweight people are just as beautiful as thin people huh.

John Fox: 19:36

Maybe not. I'm jogging. The other day I see these two people jog by me, slim and trim. They look great. I hate their guts. Keep the rhythm. We're singing this Diet Pepsi song. They're like and I'm drinking Diet Pepsi and it shows Well, I think it's about time overweight people had a theme song too. Why don't they sing while they're shopping In between the aisles when no one's looking?

John Fox: 20:07

Just feeling good about myself? Candy section. I cleared the shelf, Ate a pizza, drank a milkshake and it's show. You're a fine crowd. Is it hot in here? You guys? She's throwing her log on the air conditioner back there. How you doing.

John Fox: 20:37

You look familiar. You ever do this. You ever see somebody you know. You're not sure what their name is. You know their name is either Dick or Rick or Nick, You're not sure. Try and bluff your way through the evening and call them Ick.

John Fox: 20:56

You're going to be my brother. He's an asshole. Comes into my house the other day holding a handful of dog crap and says hey, that's what I almost stepped in. He's real ugly as a child. You're fine looking guy. My brother's real ugly as a child. Moms out here can relate to this. My mom took one look at him when he was born, signed his birth certificate unknown Because she had a problem spelling.

John Fox: 21:20

Ah, he always goes to pornographic films. You people go to pornographic movies. This guy's got his hands in his lap. Gotta go all the time. You know what kind of movie we're talking about. Right, Like you gotta be 18 or accompanied by a trench coat to get into something. And let's face it, we're adults, we can talk. It really takes some lowlife, degenerate, sleazeball individuals to even want to see films like these. So, like I was in one this morning and I'm watching this film. Very entertaining film, very educational film, the first pornographic movie ever made in 3D. Not a pretty picture, Gotta let your mind wander here. By the way, Some guy had an orgasm and it was like hey, fucker Jesus, I'm taking these glasses off. Man, you can't have all the popcorn. So I'm watching this film. I noticed that the patron sitting in front of me was next to an inflatable doll. I was thoroughly disgusted. I could not believe a man would bring an inflatable doll to a pornographic film.

John Fox: 22:58

I was so disgusted, I grabbed my sheep and I said Honey, let's get the flock out of here. A lot of motels now are offering rated X movies, see, but they advertise them closed circuit TV, which is a title that scares me, Shouldn't scare you folks too. I'll tell you why. It's like if I'm watching a movie in room six, how do I know that I'm not the movie in room 7? I think some of you have thought about this one. Wouldn't it be embarrassing?

John Fox: 23:41

The next day, in the parking lot you're leaving hey, aren't you Bronco Bob? I didn't recognize you. Like that bull, rip up your ass. I would like to know who writes these movies. Now, there is a sick individual, because these movies have no plot stone, do they? A lady walks into Kmart to buy a toothbrush and figures while I'm here. Why don't I blow somebody? That never happens when I'm in Kmart. I'd be there right now. Bullock's best in our blowjob department Can't pass up the sale there. I got kicked out of Kmart. Kicked out of Kmart, it's worse than being fired from McDonald's. They called me up and they said we're sorry, john, but you have insufficient funds to cover these checks. I said I know that If I had enough funds to cover those checks, I would have paid cash.

John Fox: 25:01

It'd take too many brains to figure that one out.

John Fox: 25:02

Eh, that's why, you're working at Kmart, asshole, you ever get these guys like Beneficial Finance call you up pleading for a payment. Now you gotta feel sorry for these guys. Huh, these guys are Major Leaguer paying the assets. These guys call you up, john, we don't know what we're gonna do. Either we have a payment in here by the 30th, or we just don't know what we're gonna do Now. What is Beneficial finance worth? A couple hundred zillion dollars? I don't come up with $18.50 by Thursday. He doesn't know what the fuck he's going to do. I gave him a couple ideas. The guy kept bugging me. I finally told him. I said listenly, bob, at the end of the month I put all my bills in a hat and I have a raffle. The ones who get picked get paid.

John Fox: 26:00

You keep fucking around, you're not even going to get in a hat next month.

John Fox: 26:10

The only person with worse credit than me is my brother. He's a financial disaster. Every family has a financial disaster. We voted my brother. He's the winner.

John Fox: 26:20

My brother needs a cosigner when he pays cash. You call him up. He has an answer phone, a phone mate. You call my brother up and his phone mate goes okay, this is Tommy and I'm really sorry about the checks. All right, and don't be sneaking around my house or nothing, because I'm not home.

John Fox: 26:44

I swear to God, he tries to borrow money from me. He said John lend me a hundred bucks and I swear to God, he tries to borrow money from me. He said John lend me a hundred bucks and I swear to God, I'm thinking what kind of collateral is this? How often do you see a bank manager behind his desk? Well, you got no real or personal property here. You swear to God. As long as you don't make me cross my heart, I think we got a deal here.

John Fox: 27:15

I'll tell you that's kid stuff. I got a little kid little boy. Took my boy the other day to see Snow White. See, because I think of kids. You see, all the kid should see all the classics. You know, like Gone with the Wind, Ben-Hur, Porky. Who would name their kid Porky? It's like naming your kid Meatloaf or something, isn't it? Rock and Roll Star Meatloaf. Now there's a father with a sense of humor, huh, this is my son Meatloaf, my daughter Mashed Potatoes, and our dog, Bob, Took my little boy to see Snow White.

John Fox: 27:53

Now, for those of you who have never taken a child to see, like a Sunday afternoon matinee, you're all going to do it. Some of you probably already have, but we set the scene for you, so the rest of you know what you ran for. When the big moment comes, ladies and gentlemen, it's Sunday afternoon, 1 pm. We're in a station wagon and we're headed to the mall. We buy our tickets, we take our seats and we notice that there's three billion kids and two dads, and they're both digging jujubees off the bottom of their shoes very very sentimental part of the film.

John Fox: 28:28

Ladies, ladies and gentlemen, snow White is laying there asleep. Music's playing. The dwarves are crying, little birds are crying, little squirrels are crying, two dads are crying, two dads are crying. In comes Prince Charming, walks up to Snow White, lifts up her head, is just about ready to kiss her and say and my boy stands up and yells.

John Fox: 29:09

Go for it.

John Fox: 29:15

Party. He's a good kid though. He loves his dad. He loves his dad. He got me a watch for my birthday, cost me a hundred bucks, played Little League this year, first year in Little League. One of the kids on the team was into punk baseball, wore his cleats inside out, but only slide crotch first, you're out and you drop something. Three little girls on the team. We didn't have girls on the team when I played Little League.

John Fox: 29:46

Women are getting liberated these days, let's face it. Sacramento's no exception. In fact, last night after the show, this girl comes up to me and says John, I want to take you home. I figured, hey, it can't be rude. So let me tell you what happened. We went back to her house, ladies and gentlemen. We went there five minutes, five minutes and she dimmed the lights, puts on some soft music, pours a couple of glasses of wine I know this, mine's a lot fuller than hers is she rips off all of her clothes, jumps on the couch, started masturbating with the biggest fucking vibrator I've ever seen. I thought to myself. I said, hey, if I play my cards right, I could be kissing this girl. I like middle aged women. They're the best middle aged women. Yeah, 14, 15, 16 girls, you can talk to you know what I mean.

John Fox: 30:50

Did you get that Journey album yet? Or what? 14, 15, 16. Girls you can talk to. You know what I mean. Did you get that Journey album yet, or what? I'm not making fun of women. I think women have got the toughest job in the world and that's to have babies. That's the toughest job in the world, let's face it, because if guys had to have babies, there wouldn't be any. It's the truth. Guys are sissies and then guys would have to have that thing once a month. That'd be a drag, wouldn't it? Uh, vern.

John Fox: 31:24

I'm not gonna be able to haul that lumber for you. Today I'm flowing, but your girls aren't all perfect. Tell me this, tell me this how come is it on a double date, when a woman has to go to the bathroom, boom, they both got to go? Maybe it's magic, I don't know. You never see two guys go together, do you? You never hear like Chuck, it's going to take a piss. See, when guys are in the bathroom together, you know what we're doing. Huh, guys Comparing. That's right, girls, guys are real assholes. You get five guys in the bathroom lined up against the urinal. I don't care if you got the pope, the president and three boy scouts. They're checking it out.

John Fox: 32:15

I don't like to brag, but I'm hung like a rhino. You can pound nails with this on bitch. You kids want to help me wring it out down there. You kids want to help me ring it up down there. You guys are laughing because you know I'm telling the truth. Now, how come is it you never hear women bragging how big they are? Never see a group of girls at a picnic behind a tree someplace? Apple, I got the biggest pussy. It's a wonder, my guts don't fall out.

John Fox: 32:58

Herbert lost his timex up there last week. When it fell out it was still lurking. It took a dick and it's now tainted. I think I found a level of this group now. But guys do brag about their things. You ever brag about yours. You got one on the team anyways. One of those guys. You gotta put your finger in your butt for your dick to pop out. Boom, I told you I had one. Now stay, I'll prove it to you. You guys ever read those letters at Penthouse Forum? I write the letters. Now think about it. Does anybody ever write a letter to these people with a normal-sized dick? It's never like. I pulled out my five-inch penis and Nancy and I made glorious love. These guys write these letters like there's a wild animal living in their pants. I unleashed my blood gorging, pulsating hunk of 12 inch love tool and plowed into her honey pot. What the hell is a honey pot? Who's this guy fucking Yogi Bear? Hey, boo boo, a honey pie. Who's this guy fucking Yogi?

R. Scott Edwards: 34:33

Bear man. I love that guy. He always cracked me up, he always entertained the audiences and I got some great stories about him that I'll share in another show. That was John Fox live on stage from a New Year's Eve show from 1983. I know you enjoyed that. All right, before we end this week's podcast, I have a little promo done for the Magic Hat Bar, done again by Y92's Paul and Phil. I think you'll enjoy it.
