  1. It sounds like you're talking about the long fabled, oft-thought-impossible, legendary Thing Of Which We Cannot Speak

  2. You know, I agree that (for me) this wasn't Morris' funniest character but I honestly think it had something to do with my extreme aversion to ASMR. Like, even as a joke there is something that makes me nauseated hearing grown men talk in that whispery, dry-lipped baby voice. I can listen to Little Gary all day, but start doing that ASMR whisper and I'm done.


  3. Um, guys, this forum is feeling dry as a bone recently.

     

    My life is currently unbearable and I've been using this forum (and beers) to escape into a fantasy world. Thus, we need to spice this place up a bit so I don't have to think about my shitty real life. Here are my suggestions for some fun ways to get this pot boiling:

    1.) Post a photo of your stepmom or stepdad.

    2.) Tell a traumatic story from your childhood.

    3.) Share a project that you're working on (even if it's just a nugget of an idea)

     

    What do you think?

     

    1. I don't know how to do a picture

    2. My childhood was perfect, and also good and nice

    3. I'm working on my paper bottle collection

  4. Sean I hope your relationship with your mom's new boyfriend works out well. I know how tough it can be seeing a new guy be romantic with mommy, but if you can be nice to him, and eat some chicken with him periodically, then you both will be happy.

    Maybe they can go to a nice restaurant, wheel in a big TV and enjoy some Blacklist together. Big Bonding Over Small Movies, is what I'd call a movie based on them doing that.

  5. I definitely think that Scott has upped the bit ratio--I've noticed it, too. But he's also sharper and funnier than he's ever been. I've been working my way through every episode, and honestly the show just gets better as it goes along, because Scott gets more and more confident as a host and builds upon his persona. Basically, he is the voice of the show. He IS the show. Like, I love all the bits and sketches on Conan, but at the end of the day I tune in for Conan. Comedy Bang Bang is not very different. It's a talk show based around the host's voice and personality. We love CBB for the characters, but the main character is Scott Aukerman, and he is playing a character.

    I also feel like you're missing perhaps THE central running gag of the show. The fact that Scott constantly interrupts or "impedes" the characters, tries to dismiss them ("Ok, well thanks for stopping by. Wait there's more?") or gets caught up in completely inane details of their insane stories is all part of the joke.

  6. now that the case is closed can we steer this thread back towards what really matters, wild unfair speculation on who the total narcissist cop show actor at Asssscat was?

    There's been a couple stories on the show where Matt's mentioned a terrible monologist but declined to mention their name. Seems like since it was a show that was open to the public there wouldn't be a need to keep it a secret, but I suppose he has enough listeners where it could stir up trouble.

  7. I do feel, as a Kong aficionado, that I must clarify that Funky Kong is more a surfer dude than a rap dude. But obviously he shoud be a rap dude, because a monkey rapping hints at you is apparently the funniest thing of all time. I legitimately can't think about that scene without laughing. A doctor driven to alcoholism and a family driven apart by being SO bummed out by the idea of Funky Kong.

     

    EDIT: I thought the Barter Town intro was awesome. If you step into Case Closed Town and expect anything less than getting yelled at by Matt Besser you're a fool. He doesn't make anybody come on the show, and Sexy Robot even warns people who don't like the segment to turn the podcast off before the segment starts. I don't see why anybody would be upset about a segment that people go on willingly and nobody is forcing us to listen to.

     

    I do think Matt should leave the case open to the comments section, though. He doesn't have to engage us, but sometimes I need to re-open that Captain Pike case because HE IS SO NOT A CYBORG!

  8. As a huge gamer, the idea of someone being so disturbed by the very IDEA of Funky Kong that it drives them insane had me on the floor. Already such a great episode.

    Also, I've been having a ton of issues getting Earwolf podcasts to download to the podcast app as well. It won't download or stream so I've had to pull it up on the website.
