Bowie produced "The Passenger"! (And also "Lust for Life".) It's also my favorite Iggy, though I do probably The Stooges to his solo things. I go all over as to what my favorite Bowie is. I honestly probably listen to Let's Dance the most, though I think Station To Station is probably my favorite, but have also put like 4 other albums of his as my favorite depending on who knows what. I think I just prefer when he grooves

My favorite Iggy song (not really a deep cut, but whatevs...)

Oh shit! I didn’t realize I (co) won the C&O this week. Uh...I take back everything I said above. Paul’s decisions are flawless. But, seriously, guys. “Lotty?” I’m not even that big of a Fast and Furious fan and I know that’s wrong—lol.

I have a lot of questions regarding the selection of Space Jam. First of them, how dare you?

Paul and Jason break down the Fast 9 trailer with a live reaction on this week’s mini-sode! Paul also offers advice as he opens up the Paul Help Line, goes through Corrections and Omissions for The Adventures of Pinocchio, shares some deleted scenes from the last episode which continues the Drop Dead Fred debate, and opens up the Mail Bag. Plus, find out which movie will be covered next week! This episode is brought to you by Zoro.com (www.zoro.com/bonkers).

I still say mickiefickey to this day lmao

Get out of my car, and into my cream.

(I’m going to turn this into a David Bowie appreciation thread now )

This one is definitely up there for me. If we're talking favorite song Iggy ever did (solo or not), I'd probably have to go with TV Eye.

Paul, in the future will you please be mindful of you hitting the desk to emphasize your point? It's a great way to hammer something in I get that, but your mics pick up EVERYTHING and my ears are dying. Thank you, friend.

I believe Paul has said someone pulls the comments and he then whittles it down further. I assume whoever reads the boards is different from whoever pulls the phone calls but I don't think he's said. I feel very sorry for whoever screens the calls because we've heard some unbelievable calls. I can't imagine what doesn't make air.

OMG! I don’t mean to dwell on it, but he literally read in the episode my words “The brother says ‘blah, blah, blah’” and then he turns it around and says, “I don’t even get where you’re getting this, Cameron? This is wrong what you’re saying.” I mean, I wasn’t advocating the philosophy of a dumb movie. I was just providing the in-universe answer to a question they had ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I happened to be listening to the episode with my wife which also kind of sucked. BTW, Paul is on her shit list

If my memory is correct, someone else pulls the comments for him to read. I know he's incredibly busy these days so I'm not sure how much he gets on the forums anymore (if you see this Paul - you're always welcome here with open arms). So, I believe that he is truly reacting to things he reads this way because he has no idea that entire things have been omitted. Can't explain how he could forget an entire quote from Spirit of Christmas tho Also found out today that he does receive gifs on his text app so I have in fact been sending him Family gifs throughout the day lol. This is my contribution to the greater good.

At least your comment wasn't read verbatim by a caller which has happened a couple times.

Loved this episode until the end. How dare Michael Bay II be Electric Boogaloo. I know it's an obvious pun but I don't support his cause and I hope the "you win" doesn't mean we have given in to this terrorist. Also, how dare Paul insult my beloved SPACE JAM after spending an hour talking about F9. Is it a good movie? No, but it makes me happy. F&F isn't good either! Fight me! And I'm not around next week to defend it. I feel like this date was chosen to spite me.

That sucks, but it definitely happens. He read one of my posts for that Jackie Chan/John Cusack movie and dismissed it as me not backing up what I was saying, but he neglected to read the second paragraph of my post which was exactly the research he was complaining I didn’t have. More recently, he dismissed my Spirit of Christmas post saying I was just pulling shit out of my ass when I was directly quoting the movie. It’s all in good fun though. If you come here regular (which hopefully you will), you experience all this little fumbles. It’s all good

HAHA.. ok, I'm laughing cuz I'm so confused right now. I was gonna come on and say "oh no, caller 'stole' my comment" (and WON!)...or at least, ya know, ALSO knew the same part of the story. Regardless, I was glad that the cricket dying by hammer was brought up in general. BUT THEN, Paul immediately reads my comment, and omits the part where I was referencing the fact he died by hammer in the original story. Which was kinda the whole point of the comment. lol..."REJECTED"...oh man. Not sure if that was selective editing or honest oversight. Just wonder if I can take a small slice of the caller's nothing as I see myself out. Part of my post not read: "...one element of the source material that never got mentioned was that (in the source material) when Pinocchio meets the talking cricket who warns him about being disobedient, Pinocchio throws a hammer at him and kills him." Without that, it makes it sound like I think the cricket is a ghost for ghost sake...I was saying he's a ghost BECAUSE they were alluding to the source material and he got stepped on (rather than being hit by a hammer). ugh, now I just sound like an idiot. [trumpet: wha whaa] Also, glad he played the DDF confrontation that was edited out of the episode. It was a great part of the night.

hey PAUL> Bob Baker Marionette Theater MOVED TO HIGHLAND PARK. it DIDN't CLOSE!!!!!! HOW. DARE. YOU. HOW. DARE> YOUU February calendar also - Angelinos if you somehow HAVEN't gone to the Bob Baker Marionette Theater ----- GOOOOOOOOOOOOO it. is. AMAZING

The dude that wrote that book came into my restaurant one night and proceeded to drink enough wine where he ended up passing out at his table for multiple hours. So he absolutely lived up to Giamatti's portrayal of him in that movie.

I am constantly amazed that Jess McKenna isn't an elementary school teacher, but I'm very glad we got her instead of some stupid fucking kids.

This latest musical episode made me think about a venture that should be undertaken, if it is not already underway. As Matt Besser mentioned on the episode, musical artists can have different arrangements of their songs depending on the venue and depending upon what is available at a performance. One thing a majority of the artists featured on I4h normally do not have at their disposal is the incredible talent of Brett Morris as their sound engineer. You guys should make something like Brett’s Mix available on itunes. It would include every song performance by every artist who has appeared on the show for a dollar a song. The majority of the proceeds would go to the musical artist, because it is their art people are buying. A few pennies or dimes should be allocated to Brett for his engineering and making available the isolated music tracks. These would be like the ultra rare B-sides for true fans of artists. I own all of Murder By Death’s albums, but I also enjoy their live studio performances on I4H and would be more than happy to happy a dollar a track for each song. The same goes for White Buffalo, The Family Crest, Radical Face and many others as well. This would work in favor of musicians who agreed, because their performance up to that point had been pro bono with the exception of the publicity the podcast provides. Fans of the show who might normally only buy a track or two would likely wish to buy the versions they heard on the show, and true fans on the musical artists would be excited to add an additional professionally mixed version of some of their favorite songs to their collections. Brett’s Mix available on iTunes. Think about it.
