EPISODE 343 — Athlete's Head

[JulyDiaz 2797]

A real triple threat -- actress, singer-songwriter, and pianist Alicia Witt gets the first timer treatment as Intern Gino returns to co-host on today’s Comedy Bing Bong! We hear about Alicia’s time as a teenager on the TV show Cybill, the album cover break down of her new record Revisionary History, and how she collaborated with Ben Folds on the record. Then, Victor and Tiny are back to tell us all about their new change of household as well as Victor’s dating life.

There's my dubs<3 #ThanksNickles

 

Also holy hell Victor and Tiny AND GINO. What a powerful start to the month that has brought us a new PFT podcast on Earwolf proper and the prophesied WOMP IT UP! due in just a few weeks.

 

I am out of breath with elation, gasping between kisses with Lady Luck. Cherish these days, Bangers.

[Gym Sockerman 1326]

Oh my!

I just recently watched Twin Peaks for the first time. Alicia's scene is one of the best!

[kopello 204]

Victor, Tiny, AND Gino!?!?!?!?! 2 good 2 be tru

[HotSaucerman 2051]

Victor, Tiny, and Gino?! Yes! And Alicia Witt?! Come on! I remember crushing on her in Mr. Holland's Opus. I probably hold her and Lauren Ambrose responsible for my redheaded love and heartbreak during my first half of high school.

She was also great/bad in the amazing(ly bad) 88 Minutes which was reviewed by How Did This Get Made

[McSmashington 521]

Too much reverb on The Downeaster Alexa.

 

Shout out to Staind Glass! 'sbeenawhhhhile.

[AlbinLundholm 4020]

I love Jon Gabrus so fucking much

[angryrose 494]

I am going to start calling people "big dumpy broad." That is the best.

 

Also, I am so jealous. I always wanted to go to Marty Jannetty's house.

 

[MarcusIrving 286]

I think I need to hear this whole Kurt Russell story.

[KyleSeibel 132]

I like this episode a lot and I fully expect the usual avalanche of shit whenever anyone expresses a mildly critical opinion, but Alicia Witt's accent is really off putting. I've really loved her work on Justified and Friday Night Lights, but that phony Hollywood diction is sort of the worst. Is it worse than Natasha Lyonne's New Yawwwwwwwk accent? YYYYIIIIIIIT'S close.

[AlbinLundholm 4020]

Scott missed an 'it's been awhile'

Just sounds like a normal American accent to me, I like her voice in general haha

[jerseypin 89]

Gabrus!

A2m thermometer line was genius.

 

And hey, shout-out to Noshville.

well, if that was a "mildly critical opinion" that'd be one thing but all you're expressing is a pointless personal insult of a guest. That's like saying "I love Paul F Tompkins but that gap in his teeth is really ugly, but is it as bad as that HUUUUUUGE gap in Paul Sheer??"

 

you're being an asshole and trying to hide behind "that's just my opinion man" bullshit, so yeah, I hope you get an avalanche of shit.

you get off-put too easily.

[Picklefucker 188]

I'm not much of an lol-er, but "big dumpy broad" hit me pretty hard.

not only did he insult this week's guest but he insulted tash.o as well! anyways i had no issue with anyone's voice. But if i may be critical of one thing it's that Scott didn't bring up Alicia's work on Law and Order: Criminal Intent! dun dun!

 

this episode was 2 hours and like many others just year it flew by. Good stuff all around and Scott's ad game was top notch (son and dad HAHAHAHA)

[JustinBader 103]

 

The Tiny quote from Dune for the record.

[Picklefucker 188]

he insulted tash.o as well!

Her name is Tash.2. Show some goddamn respect.

[JohnathonMangel 6]

Stone Classic Ep. I don't know how Brendon Small is so good every time, but he is hall of famer up there with with both Dalys, PFT, James Adomian, Lauren Lapkus and Jessica St. Clair. He can roll with anyone on anything. Alicia played in perfectly. I didn't get John Gabrus when I first heard him a while back but man I was wrong he rocks. Scott's ads could be their own thing. I could dig a podcast of his ad spots. Too much good here but this one really got me:

 

Gino: Yeah so my mom is Gina Lombardo-Lombordo...

 

Scott: Fantastic.

[jerk 43]

i love victor and tiny so much that i want a spin-off podcast from them on the network. this is a great idea for a high quality audio show and nothing in their recording history suggests otherwise.

[HotSaucerman 2051]

I'm hoping for more Victor and Tiny in the future. Chances point to very possible according to this little Twitter exchange.

[freeagent 329]

Scott missed an 'it's been awhile'

 

he missed quote a few... maybe he's letting it go :/

 

 

Her name is Tash.2. Show some goddamn respect.

 

:'( i beg forgiveness!

[RachelElle 217]

Gino's backstory went off the rails this episode.

 

Scott, how did you even find these interns of yours?
