EPISODE 389 — Travel Agent-Si!

[JulyDiaz 2797]

Guestress of honore Mary Elizabeth Ellis of FOX's The Grinder shares what the hardest part of being an actor is on this week's Comedy Bang Bang! Mary also tells us about becoming a judge, what showbiz job she would take in an alternate universe, and a possible new storyline for her character on The Grinder. Then, Scott's travel agent Randy Travels arrives to check up on Scott's last vacation, help Mary schedule her very first vacation, and explain why he learned english from a cartoon public access Hot Dog in NYC. Later, Dr. Frankie Beans stops by to talk about what lead him to be named 2015's Most Improved Surgeon of the Year.

Intrigued by that title

[Cathy ACKerman 361]

scott, did you know the eggplant emoji is pretty closely associated with sexting? what are you trying to do?

[FaceLikeThunder 2114]

Haha, just finishing my coffee this morning around the blackface bit and I have tears of joy. So good

[DylanFreeman 13]

UGGHH wish I had time to finish this episode, but I've gotta go to the goddamn mattress store again!

[AlbinLundholm 4020]

Mary and Drew are both so great

[AlbinLundholm 4020]

Everyone needs to listen to Waxahatchee and Ivy Tripp, best album of the year

[AlbinLundholm 4020]

Laughing so much at the dead baby part

[colin_moore 18]

I just popped a little bone cone because I remembered that its the end of Nov, which means the holiday special is fast approaching. Needles to say I'm excited.

[EvoHero 58]

Very excited for Errol Morris' Ghostbusters doc "The Thin Boo Line"

[souprman 10477]

I LOVE WAITRESSS!!!!!!

omg the travel agent guest was bad...seemed to need Scott to lead his improv around. especially weak for CBB. the rest of the show was pretty damn fun

How interesting. Personally, I found his segment to be quite enjoyable. I agree that Scott had a heavy hand in how the bit played out, but I didn't find it to detract from my chuckles.

[SteveH 11126]

One of the many facets of Randy Travels accent seemed to be a bad George St. Geegland impression

[ieatpants 720]

reference to a Miyazaki baby appears yet again -- i wonder if Scott is trying to make a hilarious new reference?

 

either that or he's having a stroke.

 

it could go either way.

[Lukas Holmes 2287]

Luke Crate sounds awesome.

[Joe Lerini 7329]

I'm loving Lippert's background laughter.

[CrosbyStillsAndMASH 0]

Hoping Drew and Dan get to drop by the stud more often. Their appearance on the latest live Improv4Humans was crazy good.

[KristophShapercutter 30]

Pretty sure 'Lisa' is not going to be happy with Scott's 10" wide mattress. 10" of depth they might be a little happier with.

[Kickpuncher 5012]

UGGHH wish I had time to finish this episode, but I've gotta go to the goddamn mattress store again!

 

I would genuinely love a supercut of all the parts of Leesa ads where Scott whines about mattress shopping.

 

Fun ep, the dead daughter part killed me.

[Big Dumb Luke 201]

Luke Crate sounds awesome.

 

I could definitely get behind that product.

[Syme 548]

Really hope "Miyazaki Baby" continues as a running catchphrase.

[KajusX 1807]

Twice with the 'giant Miyazaki baby' reference. The original phrase is "Giant Miyazaki baby that lives in the Cloud Castle." Now, I JUST re-watched Spirited Away last night and had forgotten that there was a huge baby in it. I haven't seen all of Miyazaki's filmography, and castles definitely play a part in more than one of them; Howl's Moving Castle, Castle in the Sky, etc. Surely, the cloud castle Scott mentioned is the latter of those two Castle titles. Is the 'Giant Miyazaki Baby' the Spirited Away baby, or is there another huge baby in a Miyazaki film? Inquiring minds wanna knowwwwww!

 

[SteveH 11126]

2nd time Scott made that reference, 2nd time I had no idea what he was talking about. Based on that picture, I guess it is exactly what I guessed it would be though, which is a giant japanese baby.

[freeagent 329]

Maaaan I liked this episode. Maybe because I just went to the long beach aquarium like a month ago and we were entertaining the notion of going to Bubba Gumps across the street. I also enjoy when Scott has a friend on the show he has personal history with cuz there are probably gonna be some dope jokes.

 

has anyone seen the Travel Channel series "Booze Traveler"? i have seen bits and pieces and millions of ads for it and Randy Travels sounds exactly like the host of it. It stands out because I always thought the guy had a weird accent.
