SiriusXM’s Ron and Fez Show Pay Tribute to Joan Rivers
After finding out that comedy legend Joan Rivers died earlier today without waking from her coma, Ron Bennington and Fez Whatley of SiriusXM’s Ron and Fez Show went live on SiriusXM channel 99 to pay tribute to her incredible career. For almost three hours, Ron and Fez played clips, and took calls from comedians who wanted to honor, thank or share stories about Ms. Rivers. They also played two of Ron’s interviews with Joan. The first, from a few years ago after the documentary “Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work” was released and a second interview from March of this year when Joan and Melissa were out promoting their reality show.
Some of the people who called in to honor Williams included Amy Schumer, Bonnie McFarlane, Lisa Lampanelli, Susie Essman, Heather McDonald, Iliza Schlesinger, Judy Gold, Kathleen Madigan, Sara Beniscana, Tammy Pescatelli, Russell Peters and Jeffrey Ross. After the three hour tribute Raw Dog also aired Joan’s episode of Unmasked, taped this past July to promote her new book. The entire tribute will re-air tonight at midnight, and throughout the weekend on SiriusXM Raw Dog Comedy Hits 99. You can also listen to it On Demand on SiriusXM on RawDog 99.
