Sarah Silverman, Ben Schwartz, and Harris Wittels have worked together on numerous projects, which is perhaps why the three of them have so much fun and such great chemistry on this episode of Comedy Bang Bang Radio. Whether they are revealing deep dark secrets about each other's sexual history, or starting a barbershop quartet, there are non-stop laughs. Don't miss stories out of Sarah's book 'The Bedwetter', information about Ben Schwartz's upcoming television shows, and see what Harris has been saving up since the last time he shared the jokes from his phone.

Two Comedy Bang Bangs in one week? Why, this must be a Christmas miracle! I bet this is how all those homeless people felt when David Guy Levy, producer of the upcoming film Terri, generously gave to the LA Food Bank this past Christmas. However, as you'll learn from this episode, his donation was not completely selfless: He got to co-host Comedy Bang Bang! Along with mostly-enjoyed guest Harris Wittels and a special surprise guest he brought himself, David guides us through segments like Harris' Phone Corner and the What's Up Hot Dog Memorial Plugs. Be sure to see Terri this weekend! David supports us so let's support him!

With summer almost over, we knew we had to have Marissa Wompler back on the show before she goes back to school. Womp It Up! With her is "Tough But Fair" Todd Glass who teaches Marissa how to get started in comedy. Subaru! The episode is chock full of games and stories, including the much anticipated follow-up to Todd's Subaru story from his last appearance, so listen up and check out Todd's new podcast which premieres next month on Nerdist!

Mad Men fans cannot miss this week's Sklarbro Country! Don Draper himself Jon Hamm is back on the calming shores to tell us how the Cardinals impacted the current season of Mad Men and joins us for the opening takes and Weekly Wahlberg. Plus we're reuniting Jon with his We Were Soldiers castmate Sam Elliott for a voice-over off! What would touchdown Jesus do? He'd listen to Sklarbro Country!

Listeners beware, you're in for a scare this week on Comedy Bang Bang! First of all, what could be scarier than a CYBER-THUG TAKEOVER!?!!? The Thuggy One and his buddy Miles Archer take over the show to talk about the spooky world of prison with a full soundtrack from Eban Schletter's Witching Hour. Thug and Archer very kindly allow Scott to stay in the studio (mainly to talk about the new Earwolf app) as some ghastly guests come by. The Ghost Boy who has been haunting the Earwolf studio finally reveals himself, and brings in some much needed levity with his happy songs and silly jokes. Messmore and Bueford LeBaron, innkeepers of Suicide House, join the show mainly to talk about their dicks and ghoul-themed daytime television. In an effort to regain the journalistic integrity of the show, Scott has on Leo Karpatze to sing for us the first draft of Monster Mash, which the guests use as an excuse to start a cypher. Of course, it wouldn't be a Halloween episode of Comedy Bang Bang without a round of Spook You Rather! Head on over to the Earwolf Store to buy your 'Coolest Person on the Planet' Halloween costume and don't forget to check out the Earwolf App!

Here to fill your ear holes with comedy are Jason Mantzoukas, Lennon Parham, and Jessica St. Claire! They join Matt Besser to create a special mix-in of scenes which include an investigation of fecal blow through, pitching new words for the Oxford dictionary, and eating “Da Poo Poo.” We also get into why Todd Akin is bothering us and a letter from Matt’s dead dad. Be sure to pick up an improv4humans shirt from the Earwolf Store and follow @MattBesser on Twitter to send in your improv suggestions. Music by Bobby Matthews and Dragoon.

The League’s Steve Rannazzisi joined us on a journey into the weird mind of Dan Aykroyd as we watched the truly upsetting Nothing But Trouble. We discuss the baffling set up to the drastically different second half of the movie, if the 2 large greasy men in diapers are indeed humans, and why Digital Underground would choose to take the detour into the run-down village of Valkenvania. We also talk about how John Candy looked depressed to be in this movie, Dan Aykroyd’s obsession with gadgets, and the fact that there are no jokes in this movie.

Alison Brie and Jason Mantzoukas both costar in critically acclaimed movies and television shows...but a PODCAST? I know it seems unlikely, but they are in the Earwolf studio to tell the untold story of Rizzoli & Isles and see if they can't find love through What Am I Thinking? and Would You Rather?! We also have a visitor from Albuquerque who is doling out legal advice if you need it. Plus, we have Comedy Bang Bang on IFC teasers, so give it a listen!

CYBER-THUG TAKEOVER! The Thuggy one brings in his very best and thuggiest friend Miles Archer who helps cohost this unspeakably terrible overtaking of the show we love so much. Don't be too worried, as show favorite Bobby Bottleservice shows up with Jerry O'Connell from Carpoolers (Jerry Minor was in that….whatever happened to that guy?). You've been warned!

We are joined by advice columnist Amy Alkon this week to discuss manners. That doesn't mean holding-up-your-pinky type etiquette, but giving-an-appropriate-hug style niceness. Whether it's a time thief on the phone, a chair hog on a plane, or a non-waver in traffic, you'll learn how to set boundaries and live happier despite our evolutionary predispositions. Never have an awkward telemarketer situation again!

Harris Wittels comes to save face after his last appearance, and gets some great tips from comedy legend Doug Benson regarding the jokes he stores in his phone. Notorious grump Christopher Hitchens shows up to let us know why Valentine's Day, the concept of love, and everything in between are corrupt and terrible. By Valentine's Day, I mean the holiday not the movie. But the movie is also terrible, as Gary Marshall admits in a call he makes into the show.

Fans of Stella and The State rejoice! The Marm of Smarm Michael Ian Black graces the Earwolf studios for the first time and brings with him an expansive knowledge of football and a great potential art project for fans out there. Together Scott and Michael discuss his acerbic comedic persona, his mile-a-minute career, and the emotional issues that make him the fantastic comedian we all know and love. Unfortunately, Scott's ex-step father Bob Ducca makes another appearance to let us know how he's spending the holidays (hungry...very hungry). Bob and Michael go head to head in a game of Would You Rather? which brings up some emotional family issues for both guests. Without any spoilers, there are some meaningful hugs that lead up to the hilarious plugs. Remember to check out the CBB XMAS CD. and Ebay Auction, both benefiting the L.A. Food Bank.

Paul Scheer and his friends went to see Burlesque, and you might be shocked to hear that they didn't like it. Paul, June, Jason, and guest Nick Kroll help us sift through the glitter and sadness that makes up this Golden Globe nominated film.

Email us at howdidthisgetmade@earwolf.com with your thoughts on Burlesque and nominations for future movies to investigate.

Gwyneth Paltrow, wife of Chris "Coldplay" Martin, honors us with her presence. Plus, the group plays Who Said It! Hee hee! Shamone! Dah!

It's a Beautiful Day for Mike Detective and he's here to Hold You, Thrill You, Kiss You, and Kill You. Well, maybe not the last one, unless you're the elusive Kelsey Grammer. Wait, ARE you Kelsey Grammer? We have so many questions, and so few answers, this week on Mike Detective.

We've got some good news and some bad news this week on Glitter in the Garbage. Bad news is that Drew is a bit under the weather. Good news: This gives Harvey Fierstein a chance to drop by! Drew talks a bit about his past with Chloe Sevigny, and is joined by his friends Alex and James to talk about gay super-villains and John Waters films. Besides that, we have serious political discourse about the racial and sexual climate, a guide to Culver City California, and an appearance from diva extraordinaire Corona Martini! Let us know what you thought of the episode by commenting over at Earwolf!

Welcome to Hobo Chat, hosted by Scottabot Saucerman. This week, our bumbling argumentative hobos are joined by noted television and film director Paul Feig and acclaimed sketch group The Birthday Boys.
