Episode 32 - Aladdin with Gilbert Gottfried

[JulyDiaz 2797]

Gilbert Gottfried is the most wonderful tornado you can ever imagine. He joins Matt this week to talk about his role as Iago the parrot in Disney's Aladdin. Gilbert tells us about the audition process, having to re-record dialogue for the animated series that was deemed too dirty by a viewer, and the remarkable story of how a family reached their autistic son through a puppet of the parrot. Plus, Matt's Superego pals Mark McConville and Jeremy Carter talk about playing parts in Aladdin in a totally different context during I Was Par-rot Too.

Recognized Paul by his laugh. More podcasts need a Paul laugh track.

I could have listened to a whole hour of Gilbert doing the stroke bit. Actually I could listen to several hours of that. The man is pure funny.

Great stuff. Like his CBB episode, I feel like Gilbert perfectly walks the line of saying stuff that's a little uncomfortable without really being offensive. Matt's Linda Hunt line killed me.

Ugh, the Vic Morrow comment. Ugh.
