CPAP on Tonight Show

Post by bailachel » Mon Oct 03, 2011 10:44 pm

A comedian on the tonight show just did a whole riff on his snoring which resulted in his mother video taping him to convince him to go to the doctor. This resulted, as we might all guess, in his going to a sleep clinic and getting a CPAP machine. He ended the riff talking about not telling any girls about it until after they "do it".

He was funny and maybe it hit home with some people who have undiagnosed apnea.

I didn't see it. BUT - I am DELIGHTED that some comedian has incorporated snoring and OSA and CPAP into his routine and especially that it was seen on a widely viewed TV show. Thanks for the heads up. Do you happen to remember the comedian's name?

Sorta like Dave Barry and his bit on his colonoscopy.

Yes, that blue eyed beauty is my cat! He is a seal point, bi-color Ragdoll. I adopted him in '08 from folks who could no longer care for him. He is a joy and makes me smile each and every day.

Now does he look like what most people think a person with sleep apnea should look?

That was so funny! I watched it just now at work and my coworkers were asking me to include them in what I was laughing at but I told them they wouldnt get it cuz its about cpap.
