Podcast: RIFF-erendum with Steven Pearl and Al Clethen. Episode: Rick Overton. Download Link: Here. iTunes Link: Here. Official Link: Here.
Rick Overton is hands down one of the best riffers and kickass funny performers in all of comedy as well as being a regularly working actor. Whether tearing up the stage by himself or with Robin Williams (their comedy jams are legendary!) among others he’s worked with or appearing in movies like ‘Willow”, “Groundhog Day” and “Mrs. Doubtfire” and TV shows like “The Office”, “Seinfeld” and “General Hospital” (And that’s just a short list of his accomplishments!) he always brings his best game and you always remember him. I got to interview him when he was in town doing a show at the Throckmorton Theater with Robin and we had a nice talk.
