EPISODE 109 — The ScuzzMan Returns

[EPISODE 109 — The ScuzzMan Returns]

 

Checking in from Phoenix(pronounced Fee-Nicks), my last stop before LA. I feel like I'm on The Amazing Race, but instead of Detours and Road Blocks, it's fast food and beer.

 

If you're into fast food and beer and are in the Phoenix, AZ area, I have a great restaraunt recommendation.

[Can't get Earwolf podcasts from itunes?]

Have you tried using Howl.fm? I find it to be the best and most convenient way to listen to all my favorite Earwolf and Wolfpop podcasts, plus it has full access to the complete WTF archives including interviews with Robin Williams, Louis CK, and many more.

[EPISODE 105 — John Gemberling, Our LIVE Friend]

Stephanie, you found your fiancee on the set of "In a World." Any ideas on where I could find my fiancee? She's been gone for a few weeks and all her stuff is missing and I'm starting to get worried.

[Who is your HH dream guest?]

johnny pemberton, shaq

Would love to see Johnny Pemberton back on the show.

[LIVE at the LA Podfest]

I got to see this live and it was one of the funniest improv comedy shows I've ever seen/heard. Hope it's released as a regular episode so I can listen to it again.

[Episode 89 — Erin Whitehead, Our Close Friend]

Attention Colt Barton: Do you know the exact date you met Shaq? I would love to be able to answer the musical question, "Where were you the day Colton Barton met Shaq at a Hooters in Phoenix, Arizoooona."

February 16, 2009. 1:52 PM.

It's tattooed on my lower back.

[Episode 89 — Erin Whitehead, Our Close Friend]

Steve, DM me for my paypal info.

[Episode 88 — Neil Campbell, Our Close Employee]

I wrote a song about that very important day in the style of an artist Matt Besser would have on i4h. Hope u like it, greggy if you want to use it you can d/l it here

In my opinion, that's the greatest song ever recorded.

[Episode 88 — Neil Campbell, Our Close Employee]

Another thing:

 

Colt, you think you could use your hookup with Shaft to get the Sonics back?

I was an honorary ball boy for the Sonics for a game when I was like seven years old. They picked me out of the stands and I got to shoot hoops with the guys and go into the locker room. I have a picture, I'll try to locate it.

 

I think I could be considered NBA royalty.

[Episode 88 — Neil Campbell, Our Close Employee]

"What if I told you Shaquille O'Neal walked into a Hooters alone looking for a private meal? And what if I told you a 12 year old boy and his dad bothered him for a picture?"

[Episode 88 — Neil Campbell, Our Close Employee]

Colt, are you going to talk next time you're in a chat? I'd love to hear this story about meeting Shaq you've been subtly teasing.

That hangout was pretty embarrassing for me and I feel like a huge weirdo not saying anything. I was waiting to be addressed and a lot of time had passed and I began feeling uncomfortable and then my wifi timed out (I was at a hotel in Reno, NV) and I rejoined and listened for a little longer and then left because I felt I wasn't contributing.

 

All I wanted to do was tell my Shaq story. There are so many great details I've left out.

[Episode 88 — Neil Campbell, Our Close Employee]

Also guys (I know it's early im on a red eye bus) but I was just in Boston visiting a friend

I went to Boston once, in 2009. Another major life event that happened to me in 2009? I met Shaquille O'Neal at a Hooters in Phoenix, AZ.

Here's a picture:

Can I share a picture from when I went to Harvard?

 

Can I share a picture from when I went to www.free-Ed.net?

 

[Episode 87 — Whitmer Thomas and Clay Tatum, Our Close Friend]

Erin, you played "The Nurse" on an episode of "Scrubs." Any opinions on the recent VA hospital scandal?

[Episode 87 — Whitmer Thomas and Clay Tatum, Our Close Friend]

[Episode 87 — Whitmer Thomas and Clay Tatum, Our Close Friend]

hey guys what's your favorite sweet treats? this is mine.

I was recently having a debate with my friend about whether or not Keebler's fudge mint cookies were a complete rip-off of the Girl Scouts thin mints. Now that was a Petty argument.

[Episode 87 — Whitmer Thomas and Clay Tatum, Our Close Friend]

Just when you thought the arguments couldn't get any pettier.

I was recently having a debate with my friend about whether or not Sam Smith's "Stay With Me" was a complete rip off of "I Won't Back Down." Now that was a Petty argument.

[Fantastico! Manuale di Hollywood cracks top 30 on the Italian iTunes!]

 

A picture of what?

[Episode 86 — Ross Mathews, Our Close Friend]

I have to drive to SPRINGFIELD this Sunday to see my sister. Could you please keep me in your thoughts and prayers, Scoop Troopers?

I know that you're talking about Springfield, MA, but I still can't help but be reminded of my favorite animated family.

The Big Podcast with Shaq

I met Shaquille O'Neal at a Hooters in Phoenix, AZ in 2009. Nice guy. If you want to see a picture, I'll show it to you sometime.

[Episode 86 — Ross Mathews, Our Close Friend]

... and talk about the hot new movies Aloha ...

I'm excited to hear the guys talk about "Aloha," because I've seen that movie and will be able to bring my own opinions to their conversation.

[Episode 85 — David Letterman, Our Close Friend]

Do you ever regret calling your E! series "Hello Ross" rather than "Aloha Ross" because it may have appealed to a more international audience? And also because of the movie?

 

You were a communications major at the University of La Verne. To be funny, did you ever refer to it as the University of La Verne and Shirley?

[Episode 85 — David Letterman, Our Close Friend]

"Aloha" was good. I thought it was fun and charming.

[Episode 85 — David Letterman, Our Close Friend]

As of this writing, I'm about to see the Thursday night screening of the new Cameron Crowe movie "Aloha" by myself. Very excited.

I'll see you guys on the other side.

[Episode 84 — Moments of Greatness, Our Constant Companions]

 

I hope it turns into a series like Behind The Music

 

Don McLean: Montage of Heck

Huey Lewis: Montage of Heck

Creed: Montage of Heck

 

Come to think of it, Creed: Montage of Heck would be better than the Cobain one because they're shrouded in mystery.

Tim Treese: Montage of Heck? I'm sure it takes a lot of inner demons to write a song like the popcorn gallery.
