The Tom and Doug Show

Series produced by Thomas Florek

Series image

Musical Comedy Program. Tom and Doug's lives told each week through their music.

The Tom and Doug Show is a weekly 29-minute musical comedy program featuring the so-called "real lives" of Tom and Doug, whose major accomplishment in over 20 years of performing is remaining uniquely unknown. Each week, Tom and Doug reflect on their continued uncompromising failures as well as their devastating moments of success, all in the context of their hilarious and thoughtful musical recordings. The show occasionally features interviews with off-beat personalities such as Professor Peter Schickele, underground animator Nina Paley, and mysterious industrialist Andrea Rossi,  as well as a number of other guests and regular characters.

The Tom and Doug Show has appeared on KHOI-FM (and other stations) since 2012.
