    Brian Stack is an incredibly talented man, along with the mannerisms and physicality of comedy. It's a shame he never seemed to aspire to be more camera facing. Seems like he was always content with the writing/producing side. Amazingly talented man though.

    One thing that makes these skits so funny is that underneath Bing Crosby's easygoing, avuncular public persona, he lived a rough life: he had drinking problems, beat his kids, swapped girlfriends with Bob Hope, and had a gambling addiction that got him death threats from the mob for money he owed. Surprisingly, the guy even liked smoking marijuana and advocated for its legalization late in his life. So, these songs hint at the real, unvarnished Bing Crosby the public didn't know.

    • @amjoshuaf
      @amjoshuaf Рік тому +4

      Actually, even though it’s inspired by Crosby, the satire seems directed at WASPs. Crosby was Irish. WASPs were the ones putting “no Irish, no dogs” signs in there business windows.
