Known as the serious half of one of the greatest comedy duos of our time, Dick Smothers is as fascinating as the show he and his brother are revered for. The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour was never expected to succeed. It wasn't even expected to survive

What do The Smothers Brothers, Pat Paulson and Joan Rivers all have in common? Jim Carlton. He's juggled being a singer, guitarist, comedian and Carlton has even made a name for himself as a TV writer for some of the most famous names in the business.

What's the true definition of success -- is it money? Is it fame? Jim Carlton could have had lots of both. As a writer for Joan Rivers, the Smothers Brothers and others, he had quite an exciting ride. But to Jim, there were other things in life.

Dick Smothers is one-half of one of the most successful comedy teams of all time and after 49 years, he's still getting big crowds and big laughs with his brother Tommy.

It's been 40 years since the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour was yanked off the air, but don't think that Tommy Smothers has gone quietly into the night. The outspoken political humorist is more fired up than ever.

Ever see a politician speak from both sides of his mouth? Well, you've never seen it quite like this! See why Pat Paulsen was the best!

Last time Jim Carlton was on the GB Radio Show, he was a studio writer, guitarist and comedian. This time, he's back and he's added author to his resume and he's got a book coming out that you don't want to miss.
