I've been writing comedy sketches for the last few weeks to get the ball rolling. If you'd like to perform in one of the radio sketches or serials, just be there at the show and you're in!
Here are the sketches from last week's show!
We're also looking for more comedy writers. C'mon. I know you have stuff. And it's probably funnier than you think when read on the radio. Give it a shot!
Here's one of my offerings for tomorrow's show. It's episode 2 in a series called The Cat Ladies, written exclusively for SteemStar After Dark!

SOUND FX - BEGIN MULTIPLE CATS MEOWING, CONTINUES THROUGHOUT
ETHEL
Thanks for coming, girls. I’m happy to call the 56th weekly meeting
Of the Happy Fluffy Kitty Scrapbooking Club, in session.
DORIS
Is there any new business?
AGNES
Motion to change the name of the group.
ETHEL
Motion denied. We’ve been through this, Agnes.
We agreed on the Happy Fluffy
Kitty Scrapbooking Club al a year ago.
AGNES
I know, but General Whiskers keeps telling me that he’d like the
Club to be called General Whiskers’ Battalion. And you know how
He plots against me in my sleep...
DORIS
Heavens to Betsy, Agnes. You’ve got to stand up to that General
Whiskers once in awhile.
AGNES
He deserves respect. General Whiskers is a war hero.
ETHEL
Oh yeah? My late husband Burt fought in the Korean
War. What war did General Whiskers fight in?
AGNES
Why, he was instrumental in the sacking of the neighbor’s sandbox,
And he even chased that possum out from under the house.
DORIS
He’s put on a few pounds since then, hasn’t he?
ETHEL
Yep. Fat General Whiskers won’t be leading any campaigns anytime soon.
DORIS AND ETHEL LAUGH
AGNES
OK girls. Page Count!
DORIS
Well, I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve added fourteen new pages since
Last week’s meeting, bringing my fourth volume to 84 pages!
ETHEL
Wow, Doris! You certainly have been busy. Did you have a pageant?
SOUND FX - CAT COMMOTION
Hey you two! Mr. Anderson Pooper and Miss Cat-apult! Leave that
Wallpaper alone! Sorry about that. They always act up when I have
Company.
DORIS
As a matter of fact, last Thursday, my clan had a playdate with
Margie Ross’s eight lovely ladies. They were all on their best
Behavior, and we decided to do a spectacular costume parade!
AGNES
Wow, Doris! You certainly took a lot of pictures.
DORIS
Oh yes! My cats love the limelight. Here’s the Knights of the
Meow Table… Here’s a few pages of Space Kitties in Space…
ETHEL
Would you look at that adorable little rocket ship?
DORIS
[suddenly] Quiet, Ethel! I have the floor! [normal again]
And this is 20,000 Felines Under the Sea… Don’t worry,
Mr. Catsanova and Octopussy
Are both very good at holding their breath.
[pause]
And here I used all sixteen cats to recreate the
Sermon on the Mount. Doesn’t Mr. Cat Stevens just
make a great Jesus?
AGNES
Now that’s divinely inspired, Doris.
ETHEL
And how was your niece’s wedding, Doris?
DORIS
Oh, I didn’t make it. It takes hours of hard work
To put together a production like this. I was exhausted.
AGNES
I understand, Doris. Kitties are a lot of work. Whenever I
Come home smelling like other people, I catch hell from
Chairman Meow, and you know how he is.
DORIS and ETHEL
[AD LIB AGREEMENT]
ETHEL
And what would you like to share with us today, Agnes?
AGNES
[EXCITEDLY] Well, Remember how I told you I was working on
A new scrapbook… something a little different?
DORIS
No.
AGNES
It’s finally ready! I’d like to present Buried Treasures. Have a look.
ETHEL
Wow, Agnes. This is a thick book. Not only pictures, I assume.
AGNES
That’s right. Hardly any pictures in this volume.
DORIS
What is that thing?
ETHEL
Is that a hairball?
AGNES
It sure is. A few weeks ago I discovered that if I save the
Hairballs and set them on my kitchen windowsill, by the next
Day they’re nice and preserved… Now my kitties’ buried treasures
Will live forever in this scrapbook.
DORIS
Jeez, Agnes. They still smell. And This one’s dripping. I thought you
Said they were dry.
ETHEL
So you just put a bunch of regular hairballs into a scrapbook?
AGNES
Oh, heavens no. I pick only the most extraordinary buried treasures
For the book. You know, ones that look like celebrities or states.
DORIS
Wow. That one really does look like Beaker from the Muppets.
AGNES
I know. I also found one that looks like Dr. Oz.
DORIS
Ewww. What did you use to stick them to the pages? Some of them
Are falling out.
AGNES
That’s the best part. I just kind of squished them to the page, and they
Stuck all on their own. It was meant to be!
ETHEL
Agnes… You’ve done some lovely work here, but to be completely honest,
It’s revolting. Could you put it out on the front porch until the end of our
Meeting?
DORIS
I second that motion.
AGNES
Well. Can’t recognize good art when you see it.
