It’s been seven years since Mitch Hedberg died. He may be the (intentionally) funniest person ever to come out of Saint Paul, Minnesota, until cocaine and heroin did him in. He was only 37.
Now, Scott Moran, a comic, has produced several new documentaries about comedians, the latest interviewing Lynn Shawcroft, Hedberg’s wife of several years.

Bob Collins retired from Minnesota Public Radio in 2019 after 12 years of writing NewsCut and pointing out to complainants that posts weren’t news stories. A son of Massachusetts, he was a news editor 1992-1998, created the MPR News regional website in 1999, invented the popular Select A Candidate, started several blogs, and every day lamented that his Minnesota Fantasy Legislature project never caught on.
