Fans of Bill Burr know him as a regular on podcasts and the late-night comedy circuit. Pop culture pros probably remember him as Kuby, the assistant to Bob Odenkirk's Saul Goodman, the main comic relief on AMC's Breaking Bad. His loud, angry comedic style is kind of like a toned down Lewis Black, and it's coming to Phoenix on Saturday, October 5.

While Burr is also known for roles in The Heat and Stand Up Guys, his Monday Morning Podcast is one of the most downloaded podcasts in the country. Below is Burr in his element doing one of his classic bits about why Yoko Ono is a psycho and totally sucks.

If you like what you hear and see, take note: Tickets ($35) for Burr's Celebrity Theatre gig go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, August 16, via LiveNation.com.
