Lee Papa (The Rude Pundit, Playwright): Lee Papa is a professor of drama studies at the College of Staten Island.
In Knoxville, Tennessee, Papa created and produced Radio Free Theatre, a radio drama program that was a cult favorite in east Tennessee. In addition to writing and directing audio plays, Papa developed his rude punditry chops with the monthly "Rich Flemball Show," a parody of a certain porcine talk radio host. With Mark Creter as Flemball, Papa wrote scripts that inevitably led to Flemball ripping off his pants and declaring to the listening audience, "I'm pantsless."
