Yeah, although I do think his schtick works perfect in Caddyshack, he is no John Candy (no subtlety to carry the whole thing), and the just horrendous innuendo bottom-barrel Rodney in this movie....damn. But, seeing the lineup, I'm a titter to hear all the reactions and on-set stories...worth the cringing through ... Keyyyy-ahhhhhh....

Extraordinary: The Stan Romanek Story (2013)
Ghost of HST posted a topic in Bad Movie Recommendations
I don't think I have ever suggested a movie but...with full confidence...the Stan Romanek documentary on Netflix is multi-level insane...I had to stop it a few minutes in to double-check that it was a documentary because it comes off as an Alien Blair Witch...but it's not...it's a real doc. about real people...and, then again, it is an Alien Blair Witch...but also a low-key Christopher Guest improv. movie...Be forewarned, there are no dissenting voices in the film, and the cast of "Phd.s" trotted out...such true characters! (Don't look up his name beforehand if you do watch it! There is a shocking epilogue!!) Extraordinary: The Stan Romanek Story https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKSuGq8eo8c -
Seems like it's from Money Train (?) I am totally stealing it..."The night's a puppy...and I'm feeling frisky..."

Don't know if it was due to an update, or changing my settings, but I see there is now lock-screen play/pause!
-
Thanks so much ITM!! I guess I should always "try swiping" with anything these days~~ I definitely do not have a pause/play on the lock screen and I updated the app a few days ago. I see a bar over the app screen when it is open but just a notification that Howl is operating on the lock screen. Wonder why. Again my other (Google Play and Poweramp) players are displayed. I'd rather just d/l new ones and use another player. And the ads??

Can't download off the main site (or at all?)
Ghost of HST replied to Human's topic in General Earwolf
Thanks Dan! I kept looking for that on the Soundcloud page... -
Is the discussion about this app going on somewhere else? First, as with many others I assume, I love Earwolf and have been here since the beginning. I am more than happy to pay for the Howl app even though it isn't perfected yet. However, I still see many issues remaining that I feel could hurt maintaining new subscribers. - I appreciate that episodes can now be downloaded. I see that I can select "Delete completed episodes" but is there an easy way to delete them from my device's memory without having to go all the way to the end? - I have had the imperfect d/l problem with an occasional clicking sound. - Ads in the episodes. Yes, I can FF through them but isn't this supposed to be a big selling point? I can't imagine that it isn't turning off new listeners. - Lock screen control. It seems that every audio player has this. I set my screen lock time very low and it is a major pain to unlock every time I want to pause... I have not had the problem Dan 72 mentions

Ghost of HST replied to Human's topic in General Earwolf
This still isn't solved, is it? -
Yep, thanks...I was a bit fuzzy-headed in my first post, sorry... We can disagree about D/Ling, since that isn't so much our concern but recently, more than torrents, many things just end up on youtube, like WTF, which it seems like all of his old shows have been uploaded there. Speaking of which, does the WTF app allow you to cleanly D/L old eps or is it streaming only also? I should have been more clear in that I totally agree that there needs to be an android app that you could buy once for all devices and also agree that in the BOAPW the entire archive would be available for D/Ling as open files but it would not keep me from getting the app because I really don't go back and listen with so much new stuff coming out already. I totally get wanting to listen to stuff without a network connection. I always listen to podcasts on a nanopod at the gym but, again, I'd be fine with only the recent ones being available in that format. I'm assuming that the release of the app might have been rushed due to EW Scripp's acquisition of Midroll(?)
-
Not picking on you (just a nit) but I really doubt that whole archives will ever see their way to torrent. I'm a long-term expat and have to rely on torrents for things because there is absolutely no other way to view them, but torrent sharing is dying except for only the biggest movies and TV shows. Nonetheless, it makes the argument even more for allowing the archives to be d/led. He did say "d/l to the app", which is fine by me. Cloud that s%&t up...I guess it leaves out people who want their own personal archive of podcasts sitting on their HD, but that can be a very large percentage, can it? FWIW, I've been listening since about ep. 50 of CBB (FCDR-FNAT), and have thoroughly enjoyed seeing Earwolf and the podcast scene explode even though I barely have time for a handful of faves right now. That said, I am so happy to see them finally being able to move to this model and will definitely be subscribing even though it is not a complete beast yet. And vids....sigh. I really do hope some energy is put in this direction over adding more podcasts but...VPN seemed so strong at first but now seems to be dying on the vine even though their "flagship" (??) Getting Doug...seems to be quite strong. The video seems barebones enough and if NNF can manage to upload video and have it easily available for streaming and D/Ling, it should be a breeze for Earwolf...

Oh good one Shannon, but I'm pretty that was an old Eddie Murray character.... FOOD put that surprise appearance vid at the top of the page...I haven't watched it yet as I already hit my cringe and groan quota for today... http://www.funnyordie.com/articles/5193e703dc/entourage-a-thon -

Ghost of HST replied to JulyDiaz's topic in improv4humans with Matt Besser
Ahhh...Zach Woods and Eric the Intern immediately brings to mind the awesome vidcast of I4H when that was a thing...the whole thing is great but when they get to the "Orgies" scene, Zach kills it when he gets ensnared by Eric's "erotic voltage"! -
Episode 1615 - Lauren Lapkus
Ghost of HST replied to JulyDiaz's topic in Never Not Funny: The Jimmy Pardo Podcast
Yeah, I hope the idea occurred to them to do a "With Special Guest" with the whole NNF crew and Lauren in character...
