"Liked the most: Jacque of All Trades (Blake's and Lisa's favorite), Sun Worshipper (great twist at the end!), Drive-Thru Living (I hope things never go quite that far), Garage Sale, Svedka, The Wire (don't you wish you could know?!)."

Also available at: JOYRIDE is the comedy CD that benefits the fight against drunk driving. It was created by veteran radio ad guy and independent filmmaker, Paul Kinney. Having produced funny radio commercials for the better part of his life and been limited to a minute or less, Paul decided that is was time to "break out" and create something without having to say, "On sale now," "Upon credit approval," or "Some restrictions apply." He also wanted something both adults and kids (he has 2 boys) would enjoy while in the car or in bed at night trying to get to sleep. Hence, JOYRIDE was born. Inspired by commercials and characters he's created for Jaguar (The Wire), Mercedes-Benz (Reunion), and episodes from his own personal life (Jacque of All Trade), JOYRIDE is a collection of 12 humorous scenes. The humor is refreshing without being rude or degrading, and the "film quality" sound design is nothing less than spectacular. The next time your family's spending time in the car, slide JOYRIDE into the CD player and prepare to be entertained. A portion of the proceeds benefits the fight against drunk driving (ages 10+). If you like the sounds of JOYRIDE, you'll love Mr. Kinney's romantic comedy, MAKING SOMETHING UP. Click on feature film to order yours today! Download hi-res press photos: |

Listener Reviews
"My son, Chris, LOVES it! He already knows the dialogue verbatim (having listened to it, gee, 100 times so far?!). It's already downloaded on our iTunes, and he wants to gift it to some of his friends for Christmas."
—P Enriquez
"Joyride caught our attention with the first sketch (The Wire). There's something here for everyone, kids and grownups alike. The material is classic great comedy with enough innovation to make it fresh and new. Guaranteed to produce belly laughs and cackles of glee."
