Episodes still turn up on the XM family comedy channel (#151) Unless they were taken off when Sirius ruined it.

The first sixty or so original episodes are available on iTunes. Just do a search.

Chickenman on the Wikipedia

Actually, my favorite super-hero poultry was Super Chicken.

You can hear his stirring theme song here.

I have the entire package, as well as "The Tooth Fairy" and Bill Drake's "History of Rock and Roll".

... all good stuff!

How did they "ruin it" in your opinion?

They added too much stuff that isn't all that funny, especially the "Raw Dog" channel (150). I like me some good filth as much as anyone, but some of the stuff on there is SO filthy as not to even be funny anymore, and in the evening there is now some kind of "talk show" that isn't even trying to be funny (or hasn't been yet, when I've heard it).

On the 151 channel there's not enough good stand-up, too much "comedy music" like Adam Sandler, Weird Al, etc. for my taste.

I'm also sick of the black and Mexican comedians constantly bashing white people. Hey, if we can't do it to them, they shouldn't be doing it to us.

I'm not sure if that even describes the "problem" with those channels fully, but I'm a huge fan of good comedy, and pre-Sirius merger I could listen to 150 or 151 continuously while doing booth work and love it, whereas now I find myself constantly switching back and forth because something is irritating or just too stupid, and finally I give up and go to either the Schnitt Show (152) or one of the news channels.
