It was when he left Los Angeles, and it was at the UCB Jr. I believe. Dunno about a tape or audio, I haven't heard anything about it.

I suspect it would have been the most mild roast ever conducted.

I was there, and it was awesome, but I'm 99% sure it wasn't recorded.  Here's a Comedy Zone thread about it if you wanna read a little more and see some pics: http://aspecialthing.com/forum/f35/ucb-la-roast-paul-f-tompkins-hosted-jimmy-pardo-9-25-11pm-991

Edit: those cigars really did stink.

I knew this had happened, but I had no idea Tom had written jokes for the occasion.

Tom, if you could share some of the jokes you wrote, I'd be thrilled.

This must be the roast that tom was trying to get Spike involved in last year. :)

It's funny because everyone in that thread was gushing over the writing and delivery of Aimee Mann's jokes. GOOD JOB TOM & AIMEE!
