David M. Green: Purveyor of fine humour

  • Fresh Material

    Top of the morning to you!

    David M. Green here again (this is my site, after all. I think I’m entitled to be here… Yeah, I know I’m not wearing an ID tag… Well they haven’t given me one yet. What’s it to you?). Just letting you know via the medium of blog that I was a guest on Fresh 92.7FM’s “Freshly Squeezed” breakfast show this morning with Jason Spreadbury (love that name! “David M. Green” …and “Spreadbury” is also good).

    So I got up extremely early just to broadcast some “fresh” sketches to people like you. By the way, you can hear the safari-themed sketches I’m referring to right here.

    Apparently this is going to be a regular thing, so tune in every Tuesday morning around 8:10AM to Fresh 92.7FM if you’re in the Adelaide metro area (or listen online if you’re anywhere else) to hear some original David M. Green sketch-based audio comedy!

    I’ll most likely make a “Fresh Page” here at davidmgreen.com, like I’ve done with my other radio shows, so you’ll be able to listen to clips ‘n’ things. But hey, when that happens, you’ll be the first to know… you know… after me of course. But, surely that’s a given, right?

    EDIT: As promised, the link to my Fresh 92.7FM Page.

    Kind regards,
    David M. Green

  • “On The Yacht” Community Radio-A-Go-Go!

    Yes a shout-out to you! (as much as I hate doing them… so amateurish…)

    It’s official! My latest comedy radio venture has been approved by the suits and pant-suits at Radio Adelaide 101.5FM to be broadcast this summer at the majestic timeslot of Thursday nights, midnight to 1am. The show is titled “On The Yacht” and it’ll be a little different to my previous comedy shows. On The Yacht aims to parody the popular laid-back style of AM talk radio and will be the first show where I appear in character the entire time. I’ll be playing Norman Vine, alongside Nick Godfrey as Dr Kevin Goodall, Adam Navarro “anchoring” the nautical-themed programme as his AM alter-ego, “Adam,” and making up the numbers, Voice-Over’s Tim Wray in the news room.

    Staple features of On The Yacht will include, pretty much what you can hear during the day on AM radio: expert guests, uninformed callers, quizes, news updates, pointless pedantic conversations about the details of life (all satirical of course). But hey, don’t get upset if you’re a genuine fan of AM radio. So are we. Why else would we be doing this? On The Yacht isn’t a mean-spirited “dig,” but more like a light-hearted, humorous homage to the format. Plus it’s a chance to play some smooth nu-jazz and soft yacht-rock… ohhh yeeeaaaahhhh…

    Keep your eye out for more details right here at davidmgreen.com… On The Yacht sets sail on its maiden voyage December 5th 2008 12.01am ACST (+10.5GMT) on Radio Adelaide 101.5FM. Feel free to tune in (if you’re up).

    Kind regards,
    Radio’s David M. Green

  • Lack of Seating Forces Sketch Comedian to Stand…-Up

    Good (insert appropriate time period here),

    Hello again, David M. Green… I mean, I’M David M. Green. I’m not calling YOU David M. Green and saying hello to you. That would be inefficient. Only a hand-full of other people in the world are called David M. Green… Also, it’s pretty silly. My apologies… BUT ANYWHO… Last Thursday I comically stood-up and did some stand-up comedy at Adelaide’s fabulous “The Rhino Room.” Funnier than the last time. Plus I wore a tie! Enjoy!

  • Witty ’80s TV Commercial Nerd

    Salutations viewer!

    David M. Green here. I was recently looking through an old cupboard and I found an equally old VHS tape of the 1985 Australian Grand Prix. Upon viewing the tape for nostalgic purposes, I noticed the original TV commercials, which were also included on the tape, were repeatedly ridiculous, and therefore worthy of ridicule. Thus the above “straight-to-YouTube” sketch, made for your amusement. It’s kind of like YouTube’s “Angry Video Game Nerd” but wittier and less angry… and not about video games obviously… Equally as nerdy of course. Enjoy.

    Kind regards,
    David M. Green

  • David M. Green’s Comedy Machine now on Internet Radio!

    Hi,

    David M. Green here. Please feel free to call me DMG for short. Ironic twist about that. I work at SAFM, which is owned by Austereo. One of SAFM’s rival radio stations is Nova, which is owned by the Daily Mirror Group (DMG for short), and since it’s probably frowned upon to mention the competition on air, I’ll probably never be able to point out this amusing ‘spot of irony,’ unless via the Internet of course, where everything goes… everything…

    Anyway, some great news if you’re a crazed fan of my comedy shows I did on community radio. No, there’s been no change in the cost of Prozac (fingers crossed). BUT… I CAN say the purpose of this blog is to inform YOU that you can now hear my old shows (The Green Room, Brain Damage & Pow-Wow) every Wednesday evening as they’re re-broadcast (syndicated… if you will) on Traxx Radio from sunny Brisbane, Australia!

    The 3 shows are being played in their glorious entirety under the name “David M. Green’s Comedy Machine” every Wednesday 7PM GMT+10 (so that’s 6:30PM in Adelaide), starting from Wednesday July 16th 2008. Just go to www.traxxradio.net to listen online and the laughter will live on… that sounded a little corny. Do we have anything better? …We don’t… ok. Denise could you also pick up my dry-cleaning? Thanks. Oh yeah, just finish that up for me. End dictation.

    Kind regards,
    David M. Green
