I've moved a selection of sketches over to Comedy Blaze TV. If you'd like to head on over there, have a listen and maybe even rate them then that would be marvellous of you. You can find it here -
www.comedyblaze.tv/TheBohannonShow
Sketches are listed under the AUDIO tab.
This whole site seems to be geared towards video comedy - the audio stuff seems to be treated like a poorer, visually impaired cousin but I'll give it a go and see what develops.
Cheers.

The Bohannon Show - Episode 6
The sixth show in the series was uploaded last night. Unintentionally it seems to have adopted a loose theme of "speed dating". I haven't "speed dated" myself - I should probably try and learn the fundamentals of a "slow date" first before I attempt anything more rapid. I wouldn't want innocent spectators getting hurt as I lost control of some high velocity flirting due to lack of experience! Anyway the show consists of -
Show 6 (9:10)
"Underpass" - Expresses the guilt-tinged anxiety felt when walking through an undeprass at night.
"Bravado" - When you need a strong smelling fragrance cover up the smell of bulls**t.
"Speed Dates" - How not to impress in only three minutes.
"The Bout" - The dating game played out in a square ring.

Random Acts Of Kindness
This morning a couple of things happened that kind of changed my perpsective on life.
As I left my flat to go grocery shopping I noticed that someone had placed a doormat outside my front door. I have no idea where it came from, or who put it there and for a few seconds I thought I might be the butt of some lame practical joke - I guess that was the "cynical me" coming to the fore as it usually does (or did). But after moment it dawned on me that this was no joke - someone had simply noticed I had no doormat and, out of the goodness of their heart , had decided to make a neighbourly gesture and give me the gift of a doormat. That made me think.
So off I went to get my groceries - just a few bits and bobs which came to £5.09 or something. I handed over a tenner and was given £5 in change accompanied by a smile and a wink. Without being prompted and out of kindess the shopkeeper had realised that no-one wants to walk around with 91p change jangling around in their pocket and had taken it upon himself to waive that 9p. That made me think even more.
As I carried my graoceries out of the shop and I felt the crisp autimn sun on my face I felt something like an epiphany. If strangers can make these small gestures and make a difference to someone's life and outlook then I can too. At that moment I resolved to become one of those people - at every opportuntity I would go out of my way to "pass on" this kindness and, hopefully, make a small positive difference to the lives of others.
And then I slid in a big dog turd and my normal simmering bitterness was restored.
