A Rabbi, a Priest, and a Muslim Walk Onto a College Campus


A couple of years ago we wrote about Rabbi and stand-up comic Bob Alper and the Laugh in Peace tour that he has been taking to colleges all over the U.S. and Canada together with Muslim stand-up comic Azhar Usman. Now they've been joined by Susan Sparks, Senior Pastor of the Madison Avenue Baptist Church in New York City and also a stand-up comedian.

A camera crew from the CBS Early Show caught up with them this week at one of their performances at the University of Tennessee and profiled them on morning TV. Here's the interview that was shown, letting each of the three comics tell their own story. (There's a 30 second commercial before the video starts.)

Enjoy!

  2. So what happened to the Buddhists? Are they chopped liver or what? You need some good old fashioned Zen thigh slappers to complete the routine.
