OrangeReviewStarThis follow-up to NPR Funniest Driveway Moments (2008), also available from HighBridge Audio, collects some two dozen delightful short segments from the National Public Radio archives. It opens with a hilarious interview with Joan Rivers, who speaks to the benefits of getting older; the remainder has something for all ages—Seinfeld writer Peter Mehlman on Los Angeles, Carol Burnett on belting out her trademark Tarzan yell in Bloomingdale's lingerie department, Jane Lynch on her cheerleading coach character on the Emmy Award-winning show Glee, comics John Rappaport and Matty Simmons on The World's Funniest Joke, and more. Outrageously funny and a reminder that the medium of radio is alive and well. This enthusiastically recommended production will captivate commuting listeners into lingering in their driveways long after they've reached their destination.—Barbara Valle, El Paso P.L., TX
