Real Talk Tuesdays: Brian Regan

I have an incredible amount of respect for comedians. They have a tough job. Telling a joke is all about delivery and timing. Try stringing together an hour worth of jokes. Now try making a living on that. I recently heard an interview with comedian Brian Regan and the host pointed out that Regan is considered a "clean" comic. He's not churchy or a prude, he just choses to work clean - which in my opinion makes the job all the more difficult. Imagine filling an hour without stooping to low-brow sexual humor or swearing. Yet he does it with razor sharp timing and some outlandish physical posturing.  Real talk? That's pretty impressive.
