Two names that you might be familiar with:: George Carlin and Bob Newhart.
I believe they both have videos up on YouTube (several of them could be reactions to the skits...)
Phyllis Sidhe_Uaine

Watched a number of his bits... he is good...and his jokes will always be topical since his focus is age and deterioration...as are mine.
You might've heard some of Bob Newhart's stuff (The Driving Instructor and The USS Codfish are two of them.)I've watched some George Carlin - seems like Bill Hicks was quite inspired by him.
This guy is something else, though - his one-liners and self-referencing are great.
Here's the video to The Cruise of the USS Codfish:

Here's another Bob Newhart skit:
In case it's taken down, the title is/was Defusing a Bomb

I think that this was posted a while ago in a Feedback thread, but the one posted there was removed from YouTube:
Yes, it was by the Monty Python comedy troupe (it was the Arguement Clinic skit in case it's removed here.)

He mentioned turkeys, ducks, and chickens, 1:09, prophetic of that trend with serving "tur-duck-ens" some decades later.
EDIT: Looking it up I guess it's a Cajun dish credited to Paul Prudhomme, that didn't end up on my radar until they became all the rage a few years back. But there are other recipes for "three bird roasts" around the world.
The more you know...

I don't think I've ever heard of this guy, but he's funny!
Although it's possible I have heard of him or even seen him! Looking him up, his Wikipedia page shows that he toured with Weird Al Yankovic before so I may actually have seen him and did not remember!
