Nick Zaino has been Boston’s premier comedy correspondent for three decades … from the gone but NEVER forgotten (BELOVED) Boston Phoenix to the Boston Globe … and last year, Nick put on tights and a cap and became a true superhero to all who love stand-up, improv, sketch comedy, radio, albums … and launched the the 24/7 streaming … Boston Comedy Radio!

 

For last 3 plus years, Nick has been tearing it up on the speaker circuit with his 100 Years Of Boston Comedy spectacular (check his socials for his schedule and make it a priority to see it.)

 

Nick is also a accomplished musician – as you’ll hear from the song we go out on.

 

Truly this episode was a long time coming and worth the wait.

 

Above all else, Nick is a super great guy whose love for comedy and his support to the art makes him as much of an important cog in this machinery of laughs.
