    Her spontaneity and ability to think on her feet are amazing.
    She's almost literally a female Craig Ferguson.
    Johnny Carson hated Bob Hope because all of his jokes were pre-scripted.
    All comedians have a guideline, but Carson and Ferguson and Poundstone have the exquisite gift of spontaneity.
    That to me makes her, and them incredible comedians.

    The reason Paula and Craig are so funny together, setting aside their intelligence, is that they genuinely like each other. They enjoy each other's company. They have wit and charm. And they have much in common in their lives to play off each other.

    I love Paula, but there is really no parallel with Steven Wright, who is also great. She is one of the best standup comedians in her own right, and is brilliant whenever she starts to chat with members of the audience and just improvises. I've never seen anyone do that so fearlessly and hilariously.

      Yes, well said, so The JayLeno Fly, thanks for the hilarious hours to watch and re watch...Paula Poundstone is hilarious, sharp. Sharp. She and Steven Wright are high calibre with excellent individual voices. But she is a master story teller. And Steven is a one line master. Paula interacts with a crowd with skill. I don't think I ever saw Steven Wright do that. He barely makes eye contact. And also, neither of those two can be compared with anyone else. I've noticed some new comedians using the same cadence as others. Same spin as others. Same "outrage" as others. Really individuals like these two (one more thing in common: very individual!!!). Maybe Paula appreciates Steven Wright's artistry and is honoured. But I think she is her own...in every way. Every way.

    Paula Poundstone is an odd duck, but a true blue human being. Brilliant, perceptive, understands people. On top of all that, she actually likes people too. Go figure.
    Her first joke that focused me on her was: “The other day I was in a traffic jam, I was a mile back myself, and some guy pulls up behind me and leans on his horn. Like everyone else just forgot to move. I was expecting to see headlines the next day "AWARE CITIZEN ALERTS MANY."
    So subtle, yet scathing at the same time.

    I've always enjoyed the comedy of both Poundstone and Wright and noticed early on the similarities, particularly the tightrope they walked with regards to sexuality. Unless it's the cerebral political stuff (the legendary Mort Sahl just died), or pop culture, the main courses of a stand-up comic's menu have always been dating, marriage, virginity, promiscuity, my boy/girlfriend is crazy, "take my wife... please" (that's how old I am), and on and on. To stay clear of all that and still be funny requires, aside from talent, genius.

Walk out there with very little "prepared" material (not that she couldn't carry a whole show with whatever she prepared!), with no idea what kind of feedback she's going to hear from the audience and then launches onto a whole show on audience feedback! Her show with the "What kind of a question is that!?" had me rolling!!! I think she must be in the genius range of intelligence to be able to do that.

Maybe it's more of a personal thing for some people but the cerebral comedy thing isn't one man's kingdom alone. Ricky Gervaise is one name that springs to mind but in their own ways there are a host of lesser known or at least unheralded comics who are intellectually hilarious.

    She's smart and funny and compassionate. She's comfortable with who she is and doesn't get angry and nasty like some of those funny ladies.

      ann danks Joan Rivers was the worst. It's not entertaining to hear an old lady drop the f-bomb 5x in 15 minutes. Don't miss her.

      She was also arrested for lewd and lascivious acts with a 14 year old girl and convicted of child endangerment.
      If she was a man she wouldn't have a career at all let alone appear regularly on NPR.

    I would LOVE to see Paula Poundstone mixing it up on a British panel show (WILTY, 8 out of 10 Cats, etc) mixing it up with other quit wits like Sean Locke, Lee Mack, Jo Brand and MC Jimmy Carr.

      Love Stephen Wright but he's not a great conversationalist in the chair as Paula is, and I think Paula is a master of spontaneous reaction, while Wright is kind of dead in this area.

    My favorite Paula Poundstone joke is when she said she ran into one of her relatives at an out-of-town gig, "and all I can say is 'Thank God for dumpsters!'"

    As the mother of teens who take a week to fold their clothes, only after I've lost my shit after asking nicely for a week, I feel her pain.

      You are a dumb mom. Allowing children to get away with being slackers you have groomed them to be slackers for life. And not following your orders shows they have no love or respect and no fear of you. They are doomed unless you turn that around now. Tell them once and only once to fold clothes. When they ignore you then let them know that they now have rules to follow and there will boundaries and punishments. Later at your convenience gather up unfolded clothes and take them somewhere and dump them or donate them. When your darlings ask where their clothes are simply tell them "You folded them and put them away like I asked you to, I am correct!" They will not be rewarded with new clothes, but they will learn to care for what clothes they have. You do this out of love. Children with no boundaries or rules actually feel unloved! That is a fact.
      Have lights out time and they can also wake up on their and get ready for the day on their own. If they slack off then they have consequences not you.. Give them a dollar every Sunday as an allowance. Free, just for being born and they do not have to do a thing for it. If they want more they can find ways of working and earning.
      Children do not need cellphones. They cannot see or hear the world going on around them. Centuries ave passed without instant communication and now with it nobody seems to appreciate it. Constant contact with a school friend distances them from family. Hope you get the message and remember do not ask children questions that you do not know the answer to, it only triggers them to lie.

    I frickin LOVE Paula Poundstone. But no, her style is completely different from Stephen. My dream? Hanging out with Paula, and listening to her observations about laundry. Or anything. And with Paula, Craig was as funny as I've ever seen him. Great chemistry.
