Episode 245 — Poehler Ice Caps

[JulyDiaz 2797]

Cancel all your plans because Amy Poehler is back along with co-host Neil Campbell for a post-Emmys chat on today’s Comedy Bing Bong! Amy gives us a sneak preview of the new season of Parks and Recreation, tells us about the reality shows she’s working on, and shares some important advice on improv. Then, special guest Alan Thicke stops by to talk about what it was like on the set of “Growing Pains,” if he ever competes with his son over women, and he performs his very own Parks and Rec theme song. Plus, Scott, Amy, Neil, and Alan go head to head to be crowned G.O.A.T. in the Freestyle Rap Battle!

Great episode! I love any episode that features PFT laughing loudly off mic and this episode has a lot of it.

 

I hope the hand cranked applause machine will become a recurring permanent fixture along with Scott's tear basin.

[robinsbruce 4985]

Neil and Scott rocking the same shoes. Me gusta.

 

PFT is a god damn national treasure.

[Gym Sockerman 1326]

This is an Improv4Humans-quality guest list. Neil, PFT, or Amy ALONE could make an episode a classic. All 3 together?!?! This is going to be a great listen.

[PuncturedJesus 354]

New character from PFT?!?!?

 

UGH SO EXCITED.

 

I don't want to say bad things about him, because he is consistently EXCELLENT but I'm a little burnt out on some of his characters...

[slothborn 38]

Amy Poehler or Neil Campbell as the best rapper of all-time? The world may never know.

[ApathyMonger 309]

That first picture on the show page is great.

it's been stuck in my head for literal weeks

[nathanpierce 400]

Off microphone PFT laughter is always such a joy, especially at the silliest/dumbest stuff.

I have to say I agree, except for Garry Marshall. I will never tire of Mr. Marshall.

 

However, this new character was fantastic!

From Paul's amazing jacket, I take it that he recently vacationed in the village of Portmeirion. Congratulations on finding your way back, Paul.

[rararachel 190]

That rap battle was the best.

 

Rappin' Scott returns!

[Syme 548]

My favorite bit of off-mic laughter was at Scott's "It's been" reference because Amy and Neil probably didn't understand why it was so funny to Paul.

[Snutting 15]

I'm voting early for epi. of the year!

[cameron_durkin 97]

So this episode wasn't named "Horse's Dick?"

[FUCK! 189]

it's been

[cmac94 191]

A classic Epi of The Year blunder

Paul's off camera laughs are so genuine and wonderful.

[JulyDiaz 2797]

That first picture on the show page is great.

 

There's a whole piece on Funny or Die that Neil wrote a while back on his time as a child model in Japan.

[Nicolas Rage 313]

Amy Poehler or Neil Campbell as the best rapper of all-time? The world may never know.

 

The GROAT?

[EricMiller 24]

I hate condoms, btw.

[MattCameron 595]

Most EPIC rap battle ever.

 

Also, loved the Thicke charac. Best part was at the end when he said "Plug Blag." Hopefully they will finally use a PFT Closing Up The Plug Bag remix.

[Bernard_Shakey 3484]

Instant classic. I can't wait to re-listen to the rap battle.

Favorite references: Engineer Cody must have butter in his pocket like Bilbo fingering The Ring - and a CS Lewis The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe= nerdgasm

When I heard the phrase "one week" I bit my lip in anticipation. You could almost hear the look Scott must have given PFT.

From Paul's amazing jacket, I take it that he recently vacationed in the village of Portmeirion. Congratulations on finding your way back, Paul.

^And to this guy, frst of all: great reference. second: "I am not a number, I am a free man!"
