Irwin had just done a stint teaching statistics at the U of M and was fleshing out his stand-up when I met him. He became a cherished buddy. I'd accompany him to many of his out of town engagements and watch in awe as he honed his talent.<br />Such a funny dude; his mind was able to disconnect from a situation to see another spin on it; often so subtle, at times it went over my head for a moment. Not saying I don't always have all the chairs at the table, just that his clever wit took such a sharp detour -- and kept me chuckling. How much sweeter the world would be if most of us saw the humour in it that he did?<br />I've heard Bruce Clark talk about how generous Irwin was with other comics starting out at his club, offering tips to help them. I'll admit part of me also wished to be a comedian. He was generous enough to tell me I wasn't funny and save me years of failure.<br />On stage Irwin may have come across as a very sweet man, but I can tell you he was actually sweeter in person. Sharp and real, no pretenses, never mean;... especially if you didn't get it. Irwin was a natural teacher: always genuinely interested in helping others. <br />Irwin Barker left his mark on me as I'm sure he did for many people whose path he crossed. He probably never knew the impact he had on people. Sometimes I'll hear his own style of delivery in another young comedian trying it on for size. I smile, but think, "sorry buddy; there's only one Irwin."Jozeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07628965720652577631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417002681193505963.post-21535280347919063412019-08-06T09:39:46.701-07:002019-08-06T09:39:46.701-07:00Just wrote an article on Mr. Foley and this interv...Just wrote an article on Mr. Foley and this interview came handy.

It was actually broken up into 2 parts and I still re-watch it from time to time. The second part was over the top and what they did in it seems to go against some of what he has said in this interview regarding pornography and art. Just thought I would put this out there for consideration if and when the next time you interview him. Take care.<br /><br /><br />RRAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179110951294782673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417002681193505963.post-61759577409920083252015-06-22T09:32:52.395-07:002015-06-22T09:32:52.395-07:00I just checked the BBC website and its headline st...I just checked the BBC website and its headline story is that Obama dropped the n-bomb on Marc Maron's podcast.
