"From Blue Humor to Belly Laughs : Red Peters on Comedy Saved Me"

This week on Comedy Saved Me Lynn Hoffman sits down with the one and only Red Peters—the musical mischief-maker best known for his hilariously raunchy novelty songs that have scandalized radio waves and delighted late-night troublemakers for decades. From his early days sneaking dirty songs past censors to building a cult following with tunes you definitely can’t play at the office (or at grandma’s house), Red has made a career out of pushing boundaries and finding joy in the outrageous. But beneath the naughty punchlines, there’s a story about resilience, creative freedom, and how comedy—and sometimes a perfectly timed dirty joke—has the power to save us when life gets a little too serious. Get ready for laughs, unbelievable stories, and a reminder that sometimes the filthiest jokes can carry the purest truth. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
