Rip Louie Anderson. Hopefully you get promoted to manager at the McDowells in the sky.

Some of his bits that come up on the XM radio comedy channels are hilarious


You can tell some of those are old because he jokes about his father in those bits, those bits were before his mother died.

He hosted a show on XM last year on Mother's Day and went into a deep dive about his relationship with his mother and father. His dad was an abusive drunk that his mom tried to save he and his brothers from constantly. I think out of respect for her wishes he never badmouthed his father in his bits until after she died. Then he pretty much removed his father from his standup routine.

I always enjoyed Anderson. His Christine Baskets role is legendary.

RIP

Not shocked that much about him dying, more so that the cause wasn't massive heart attack.

Well shite.

Baskets reintroduced me to him. He was damn good it in. I knew he was a man playing Baskets mom, but he had me believing he was a woman.

Damn. He was one of the comedians that Rodney Dangerfield used to have in his club and HBO specials. Dangerfield alums were all pretty good.

Dropping left and right sad... been a while since I've heard any of his material. Maybe glad he's gone now.
