Comedy Bang Bang has caught winter-olympic fever, and has on some of the members of the world famous Georgian Olympic Figure Skating Team as well as the coach, who teach us what it means to be a famous figure skater in this world. Nick Thune is the co-host for the hour and treats us with a song off of his album Thick Noon. Plus once James Pumphrey shows up we get to hear some of the brilliant improvisation that makes the UCB and those who perform there so renowned.

THE GOOD ONE ROBOT IS HERE! Everyone had been requesting it, and here it is! The Good-One robot! This almost makes up for the awkward addition of Julie Penzmere, Scott's ex-girlfriend (if you can call her that, I mean, they only dated once!). Tig Notaro quickly sets herself apart as a fan favorite with her phenomenal Foley work, and Rory Scovel gives us his Oscar predictions. If you were wanting more music from Cracked Out, this is the episode to check out since it is literally the only option Scott had.

This episode is a global episode if ever there was one. Repping for the U.S. of A. is Jason Woliner of Human Giant, and honestly, who else would you WANT representing this country? To represent our neighbors down south is El Chupacabra who helps Scott quite a bit regarding how to be a great radio host. And from across the pond as 'they' say, Dame Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber shows up and gives some hints of what to expect from his upcoming work. Don't miss the first semi-regular appearance of Jukebox Jury!

Be warned, it's another CYBER-THUG TAKE OVER! This episode features quite the motely crew of guests, starting with David Sitek from TV on the Radio. The Thuggy one brings into the studio Mr. Jesse 'The Mind' Ventura who blows everyone away with some of the truth he's uncovered. Craig Robinson makes a quick appearance to be hilarious and wonderful, and Tik Tok is on Cyber's right hand side the entire episode.

Isn't it great in life when you get unexpected surprises? Like the surprise of a 2-hour episode, or the surprise of Hasty Pudding Theatrical's Man of the Year Ben Stiller? How about of Jeff Garlin from TV's Shorty McShorts Shorts? What would you say if rapper-turned-actor Ice T showed up? And how sweet would it be if Scott let an older gentleman whose dying wish is to do stand-up on the show? All of these things happen.

This episode is PURE class! The super classy Greg Proops talks a bit about his participation in the greatest film of all time. Then the captain of class, jazz musician Barry R. brings up the class level. They class about for a while until a very classy Would You Rather and classy Plugs.
-
The Sklars are here! The Sklar Brothers make their second appearance on the show, and do the whole twin-thing. Not to disrespect the Sklars in any fashion, but they are classless jerks compared to our other guest, J. Montgomery Scott. I know what you're thinking: 'How in the world did Comedy Bang Bang get world renowned actor and voice over artist J. Montgomery Scott?' Well, all that matters is that he's here, and he and The Sklars get to enjoy the premiere of Weirder Scott's new song Halo.

Adam Scott is a phenomenal comedic actor who proves in this episode that he's hilarious in any medium. He somehow manages to be funny even with the tragedy that is relationship experts James and Cathy McDowell and their neglected son Damian Vast. After they've sufficiently bummed everyone out with their upsetting views on parenting, Chris Fairbanks comes in to close us out with some of the trademark (admin note: don't quote me on that) wit and quickness that makes him such a great stand-up comic.

Comedy Bang Bang was a huge event in Los Angeles for years before it became a podcast. Well, this week Scott granted a nation-wide audience to another L.A. comedy hit, The Thrilling Adventure Hour. Enjoy an appearance from Colonel Tick-Tock, and a visit from his modern 'urban' counterpart Michael Crappaport. Guest host Paul Gilmartin does a great job of keepin' up the funny and making everyone wish Dinner and a Movie was less of the movie, more of the hosts.
-
Scott starts his year-end celebration off with a bang. And by a bang, I mean a story about the meeting (or should I say meetings) of the great Tig Notaro and the even greater Taylor Dayne. Some of our friends (or should I say Paul F. Tompkins' friends) call in from the Goodyear blimp (or should I say I say the good-one blimp). You'll never believe what Jesse Ventura and Huell Howser are up to!

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.

'Weird Al' Yankovic's first appearance on the show was mostly informative. His next visit, mostly humorous. So when Al makes his third appearance, he combines the two and becomes perhaps the most beloved Comedy Bang Bang: The Podcast guest. Hear how his career has differed from that of the super-filthy and super-sexy group 'Garfunkel & Oates' who may or may not know about oral sex (according to Riki's mom). Plus, maybe the greatest plugs, and unexpected bathroom break, in Comedy Bang Bang history!

Hey, so Marc Maron is super good at podcasting, right? Let's have him on Comedy Bang Bang: The Podcast to talk about his ex-wife and his depression and caffeine and nicotine addictions and all of those other things he talks about so hilariously. Plus, Adam McKay's favorite sketch group 'The Birthday Boys' makes a big impression on the Comedy Bang Bang audience. Listen to just what happened that created such a reaction.
-
I know, I know, you guys are tired of these drop-in's from Scott's ex-step-father, but for whatever reason Bob Ducca won't stay away. But please don't ignore the episode just because of that! Jason Mantzoukas talks about working with Scott on the 2009 MTV Movie Awards, and Natasha Leggero gives her opinion about how women can get what they want. Plus, there's jizz talk!
-
Matt (pronounced 'wee-ner') Weiner likes to keep all the secrets of Mad Men close to the vest...so let's all not tell him about this episode, okay? I mean, can you imagine how angry he'd be if he knew we knew about *CENSORED* and *CENSORED* and don't you DARE tell him that Jon Hamm and Rich Sommer mentioned *CENSORED*. Fortunately, before they could spill TOO many secrets, Jerald 'T-Bones' Tibbons comes in to talk about some controversial issues like teabagging and Green Acres. Don't miss this glimpse into Don Draper's private life and feelings about artificial sugar.
-
The year-end celebration continues with original UCB member Rich Fulcher. Bob Ducca stops by to let us know about some of the reasons he hasn't stopped by lately, and Bobby Bottleservice and El Chupacabra join the fiesta! Plus, don't miss Jerry Minor doing weird, indescribable, but hilarious things.

Two first time guests join us on this episode of Comedy Bang Bang: The Podcast. The co-host is none other than Mr. Show alumni Brian Posehn. The other, noted food critic Merrill Shindler, sits down to talk about some of his favorite places to eat around Los Angeles. Both of these guys are such long-time friends of Scott's that they are actually able to go back in time to one of the darker days of Scott's life.
-
While Scott always gets interesting guests on the show, Comedy Bang Bang gets its first television mega-star in the Cake Boss himself, Buddy Valastro. He, along with David Higgins, wait patiently for Dave Foley to show up (spoiler alert: he doesn't) by talking about David's career, how Buddy got into cakes, and playing the first ever game of Fortunately, Unfortunately.

You've heard Steel Panther on Comedy Bang Bang: The Podcast before, but isn't it always better to get heavy metal PLUS conversation from the people making it? And if you're going to have someone proctor a conversation with such eloquent and articulate people as heavy metal musicians, it should be someone who can shred a little himself. Someone like, say, Rob Huebel? Done!
-
Well, we got a couple a ladies on the show today. They talk about their boyfriends, and hanging out, and showing each other their buttholes, and their hit TV shows, and what Harrison Ford thinks of their work, and other stuff that girls blabber on and on about. Repeat guest Merrill Shindler comes in to talk about the food he enjoys in LA and to tell us a bit about what you can expect when going to his house. All of this plus a big announcement regarding Earwolf (whatever that is)!
-
This week Comedy Bang Bang: The Podcast switched studios and I know what you guys are thinking: 1) Will we still get topical material about the world today, and 2) Will our favorite guests still find a way into the studio? Well, you'll be excited to hear Scott and the Sklar's discuss Fantastic Four, the band Boston, the movie Outbreak, and other top topics you've been dying to hear a comedic take on. Plus, Scott's ex-step father Bob Ducca finds the studio and let's us in on one of the fascinating parts of his past, as well as the problems he's having with his neck and his morning journals about his family. And don't worry about being a sports fan, any and all can enjoy The SklarBro Country podcast, assuming you are an orphan.

Well, I guess it was time that someone had 'the talk' with Comedy Bang Bang: The Podcast. It seems appropriate that it would be comedy legend Bob Odenkirk. Bob and Scott talk about the birds and the bees and the history of TV's and myths and legends regarding the band U2 and all the other questions a pre-pubescent comedy podcast might have. Comedy legend Bob Odenkirk talks a bit about his show Breaking Bad Kids on Naughty Nick and Scott helps comedy legend Bob Odenkirk out with his upcoming concept album 'Motown Bus Through Middle Eearth'. When an unexpected and unwelcome guest shows up, Scott really has to learn the meaning of 'host', with a helpful acronym from comedy legend Bob Odenkirk. This cliffhanger episode truly will leave you hanging…on a cliff.
-
And now, the exciting conclusion of EPISODE 66! Scott, Brett, and Bob try working out their differences and trying to heal the past with a performance of a touching recreation of past events. I won't spoil how it ends, but I will tell you that they have time for a round of Would You Rather and the plugs you have been waiting patiently for since last week.
-
Sometimes Comedy Bang Bang gets serious, and today is the case when Scott finally breaks down the all-important question on everyone's mind: What is Fred Armisen's ethnic makeup? Buuut seriously folks, Scott and Fred discuss the aspects of Saturday Night Live (or Sanightli as most people know it) that nerds out there want to know, from what it's like to be a newcomer to just how Bill Hader perfects those impressions. After a quick music break by Trainwreck, Howard Kremer teaches us how to have a summah and Fred Armisen announces his and Carrie Brownstein's upcoming program Portlandia. Would You Rather, Plugs, music, comedy, and other things, what more could you want???
Episode 41 — Winter Olympic Fever
in Comedy Bang Bang
Posted
The winter Olympics are here, and I know what you all are thinking: 'What does Academy Award nominated singer/songwriter Aimee Mann think of the winter Olympics?' Well don't you worry your pretty little head, because you get 15 solid minutes of Olympic talk before Kumail Nanjiani joins the group. After a quick and hilarious retelling of his interactions with John Mayer, poet Maya Angelou reads us some of the beautiful work she's written regarding the winter Olympics. Good Morning.
