Episode 153 — Jedi Skills

[JulyDiaz 2797]

Kurt Braunohler takes a break from the Japanese band he had no idea he was in to count down some charts with Ku-Ku and a tardy Wie-Wie! Kurt shares one of his many dream ideas while counting down Billboard’s Japan HOT 100 Music Chart and gives us a sample of what the lives of presidential pardoned turkeys is like during the Movie Chart. Later, Kurt explains how he displayed his Jedi skills with Howard in Portland and describes where in the world he would take both a blindfolded Kulap & Howard as he answers your Twitter Qs!

If anyone has one minute and 7 seconds they would like to waste, I did a cover version of some of Howard's recent freestyles:

I like Frank a lot.

It's pronounced "Ta-KAY".

dirt cup's dream recording was ethereal

I love Kurt! Even with the absence of Howard for nearly mot of the show, I thought Kurt was an awesome enough guest to feel the void. I think I've heard the Portland story before, but it's still hilarious.

Kay Bee! Kurt's great. Downloading now ... was hoping this ep would have lots of Jersey talk, but not sure that'll happen if Howard's tardy ...

[DubipR 485]

While I lament that Howard was tardy to the party, this week's Twooch was great! Having Kurt Braunohler on the podcast was fantastic and filled in a pinch doing co-hosting duties for WieWie. While Kurt was more lucid than Howard, the comedy didn't stop.

 

Charts!

Howard: I'm just gonna sit back and watch. Just gonna sit back and watch.

Kurt: (2 sentences in)

Howard: WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT

[Martattack 234]

Frank's dream recording sounds like a sample from an M83 song.

[FlyoverStates 27]

i love that in the first two minutes of the show Frank laments Howard always calling him "dirt cup" and then Howard calls him that within a minute of coming through the door later in the episode.

[Kickpuncher 5012]

I like Frank a lot.

 

I doubt Howard will listen to the episode, but if he does, I bet he'll act threatened about how much mic time Frank gets.

 

Kurt is just an awesome dude. I wasn't crazy about Bunk, but he's totally won me over with every other thing I've heard/seen him do.

[seanotron 2307]

It's pronounced "Ta-KAY".

 

Like toupee!

 

Kurt seems awesome, though he lost me for a minute with that whole 'Red is the worst movie I've ever seen' business. That was some serious balderdash! But I got over it.

[WEdidITagain 458]

woah! Kurt was such a pleasant surprise as basically both co-host and guest today! He should sub WeiWie when he's on his next tour.

[PhillipMedoc 648]

I love how after talking about his Gravity date, Frank acted like he was taking notes a la Howard. "I'm writing that down."

 

Y'all should check out Kurt B's podcast over at the Nerdist, The K Ohle. He did a pretty good one recently with the much loved Brett Gelman, though my favorites have been with CBB sweetheart PFT and another with Kristen Schaal because everything she touches is a goddamn delight.

I like the rotating format format. The reverse Get Lost with Jonah Ray was also really good.
