Leave it to the man in the big suit to point out something about Khaela Maricich (aka The Blow) that has escaped me during the dozens of times I’ve seen her live—she’s totally like Ellen DeGeneres!

Byrne says many a nice thing (“What a great show!”) about Maricich in his blog—although he does spell her name wrong—and he brings up a solid point about her live show sharing a few elements with Ellen.

Jona Bechtolt reminds me of Howie Mandel! There, I said it!
