This year we lost comedian GILBERT GOTTFRIED, a stand-up comedian and actor, known for his distinct voice, unforgettable New York accent, and of course, fearless sense of humor. After the loss of this comedy legend to Myotonic Dystrophy, Gilbert’s co-host and best friend, Frank Santopadre, along with Gottfried’s wife and collaborator, Dana Gottfried, hosted a final taping of Gilbert Gottfied’s Amazing Colossal podcast at City Winery NYC. The September celebration brought together some of Gilbert’s favorite guests and friends to laugh, sing, reminisce, and party as “A Tribute to Gilbert.” Starting today, December 8th and streaming through December 14th, the final episode of the podcast will available exclusively via the Moment platform. Special guests will include ASON ALEXANDER, CRAIG BIERKO, MARIO CANTONE, JOHN DAVIDSON, RUPERT HOLMES, RICHARD KIND, GINO SALOMONE, JOHN SEBASTIAN, featuring JOE MCGINTY, SETH SALTZMAN, JULIAN MAILE & THE AMAZING COLOSSAL ORCHESTRA.
