Today, my Quest is complete! I have been searching for 7 years for a comedy bit I heard on SiriusXM in 2018. I had forgotten the name of the comedian. I tried every search term I could think of, I got in a knockdown drag out fight with Chat GBT about it, I joined a comedian Facebook group. I even called in to talk to Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) when he had a takeover on the Raw Comedy channel on April 16, 2025. He had not heard of the bit but graciously sent me on to continue my quest. Thank you Patton! You’re kindness and patience with me will go down in the history books!
The bit, written and performed by John Roy, is about staying with his older in-laws and watching CBS non stop.
The search terms that finally worked? pre 2018 comedians #buicks #CBS #inlaws #oldpeople
The search was not continuous, but every few months it would needle its way back into my brain and I would fruitlessly search again. For now, victory is mine! On to the next!
