If you were stranded on a deserted island, who would you want for comic relief, and what band or artist would entertain you?

Jagger, KCHZ: Ryan Reynolds is hilarious! The Weeknd for weekends, and Ed Sheeran during the week. Both are real nice guys and very talented, plus they would probably appreciate Ryan Reynolds too.

Jonathan Shuford, WRVW: My comic relief heart is still with Bill Murray. I’d choose a good nineties ALT cover band for more of a variety of songs. I would get sick of the same artist over and over again.

Toby Knapp, WASH: Comic – Intern John from WIHT-FM. This man has worked SO hard on perfecting his stand up craft… and you have to see it – and him do it – to get it. Passion is the denominator, and you know me, I’ve always been about those who live and play and work in this life… with Passion! Band – U2. Do I need to say more? #Catalogue. Artist – Bruce Hornsby. Since I was wee, this man has given me a sense of peace, a progressive understanding of the world and ways to disconnect, recharge and then, return boldly to the fight. He’s got that “Bruce” thing… like the BOSS, another Bruce… named Springsteen.

Rick Vaughn, KENZ: Anna Kendrick for comic relief. Pink Floyd and their deep library of songs.

Randi West, WRMF: Matt Nathanson for comedic relief because I think he’s hilarious, plus he can sing too. Artist to entertain me is ROUGH but I’ll say Lady Gaga since she can perform but also probably has the best stories about kissing Bradley Cooper while we pass the time on the island.

Lee Abrams, mediavisions: Bring back George Carlin, and the 70’s era Yes.

R Dub! Z90/Magic 92.5: Seinfeld to make the jokes and Michael Franks to calm the nerves and make me feel like I’m on vacation.

Buster Satterfield, WIOQ: Adam Sandler and Zepplin.

 

Bob Patrick, WXLK: Bill Burr and Lil Suzy.

Jammer, WEZB: Jill Kimmel and Duran Duran.

Mike O’Donnell, WKRZ: David Letterman, one of my all-time favorite entertainers, and the band would be the Eagles, even without Glenn Frey they still would be great.

Kobe, WURV: Bill Millman from Elektra, and Kevin Hart to entertain us.

Big Rob, KKPL/KMAX: I’m comic relief enough.. But I’d say Fluffy! Band wise… Kenny Chesney or Garth because those boys have hits and stories for days to keep me entertained LOL.

Lee Abrams, mediavisions: Bring back George Carlin, and the 70’s era

Joey Brooks, WKSS: Frankie V because he’s my best friend and somewhat of a comedian. I picked the Beatles because with their catalog, they’d never run out of songs.

Tommy Chuck, WFLZ: Barenaked Ladies.

Matt Johnson, WPLW: Dave Chappelle, and Coldplay because I would need help falling asleep.

Jeff Hurley iHeartMedia: Michael Buble. He’s funny as hell and a great entertainer. Plus, he endorses Bubbly Sparkling Water, which I assume he’ll bring to the desert island.

Elise, WPLW: Rebel Wilson for comic relief, and The 1975 because they are my favorite band!

Jon Zellner, iHeartMedia: John Mullaney with Taylor Swift, and George Carlin with the Beatles.

Dom Theodore, Radio Animal Media Strategies: If I were stranded on an island somewhere, I wouldn’t want comedy or music, I’d enjoy the peace and quiet! Is that bad?

Josh Wolff, WAEB: Jerry Seinfeld would never get old, and I’d stream B104 in Allentown.

Guy Zapoleon, Zapoleon Consulting: The late great Robin Williams is mine and my wife’s favorite comedian of all-time. But after laughing until my sides hurt and because we were stranded with the wonderful, but manic Robin, I’d need someone mellow to chill me out like Gordon Lightfoot or some lighter jazz from Oscar Peterson.

Kevin Kash, WWEG: I’ll go with Bill Burr and Limp Bizkit. If I were stuck on a desert island, I’d probably want to “Break Stuff” on a daily basis.

Orlando, WLLD: I’d take Patriece O’Neal (God rest his soul), if breathing is required, Wanda Sykes. Smart and funny. The artist would be H.E.R.
