I still consider this a highlight of my career. 25 years ago I came home to an answering machine message.

"Bob Malatesta? Mark Parenteau. I've been playing your stuff on my show and I think it's time I featured you on Comedy at 5:05, now get your ass in here."

I was a huge fan for years. I always sort of had my eye on the clock around that time of day so I wouldn't miss comedy. When I say near the beginning it was the thrill of a lifetime, it really was. RIP Mark.
