Episode 192 — Best of 2012 Pt 1

[admin 330]

Another year has flown by, so what better way to celebrate than to revisit some of the best Comedy Bang Bang moments that YOU voted for! Special guest Paul F. Tompkins makes a rare appearance as he helps Scott Aukerman countdown numbers ten through six of the listener selected episodes of the year and some very special b-b-b-bonus clips. Stay tuned for Pt 2 to see which episodes made it to the top of the list!

no catchphrase?

Awesome to hear some Lauren Lapkus love on the charts. It was a banner year for Lauren on CBB and Improv4Humans.

[Hot - Slunch 772]

I only voted for 3/5 of those clips. Outrage, outrage I say!

[Syme 548]

I only voted for 1 out of all those clips (although a couple of them probably would be my 11 and 12) I feel out of touch with what the other fans like. Unless it's because one person voted 1000 times. I found that Adam Pally non-character work funny too but top 10 really?

[Picklefucker 188]

Well, I was enjoying this, but then that host guy called me a swiffer for listening. What the fuck, man?

[therealMATTLOXLEY 135]

JUST ONE wipe out!

[sauze 111]

'Finger Guns' not # 1 !? Travesty !

 

(Great best of ep though, good work)

[MattCameron 595]

I voted for all but one of these. Love George St. Geegland and Gil Faizon. Also surprised Finger Guns didn't crack the top 5. Great so far though. Looking forward to the top 5!

[Cabbagehead 61]

Some great moments-s-s-s, always nice to listen to PFT. Can't wait for part two!

[pongo 190]

I'm also very surprised how low Finger Guns made it. And I forgot how absolutely hilarious that Zazzu clip was.

[Julia 477]

Paul's the perfect guest for the Best Of! He's heard and/or been on every episode. Plus, I appreciate someone who is just as excited at the prospect of yelling B-B-B-BONUS as I am while listening!

[Tombrien 50]

I downloaded "Keep Your Eye on the Sparrow" immeadiately after listening to this podcast.

It really warms my heart that Paul F Tompkins seems to enjoy listening to the show as much as any of the fans.

[Greatbob Umber 73]

It is outrageous bordering on insane travesty that the Schwartz/Watts/Besser Bjork episode only made it in as B-b-b-b-bonus-s-s-s.

[Greatbob Umber 73]

Assuming it's not showing up more in depth later. That was my favorite episode of the year!

[Podus 108]

Yeah, i can't believe that Pally ep. made it.

[Allybal 11]

BBQ pulled bjork should be top 5. That's a travesty.

 

If I don't see Fourvel & a cavalcade of suicides in the top five I'll probably cry.

[CapricaSixSixSix 100]

'Finger Guns' not # 1 !? Travesty !

 

Outrage! I demand a recount!

 

But for real, it's a wonder that any of the shows can be picked best,when they are all amazing. The b-b-b-bonus clips keep me satisfied for those little nuggets of goodness that don't warrant a whole episode.

 

St. Vincent audibly groaning after a Foam Corner joke is my favorite moment of the year.

[RobM 66]

Paul's the perfect guest for the Best Of! He's heard and/or been on every episode.

 

I have no idea what you're talking about. The man known as Paul F. Tompkins, as they said, has only appeared a handful of times on the show.

[JacobCrites 4977]

Whoa!

"Repeat Your Keyword" and "Pulled Bjork" relegated to B-B-B-Bonus-s-s-s Clips?

 

Best Bro Hang was voted on by anyone?

 

Fingerguns not in the top 5?

 

HIGHLY ILLOGICAL!

[S4082211 346]

To everyone saying Finger Guns should have been number 1, I agreed, UNTIL I remembered New No-No's. That episode was perfect and I feel, deserves to be the Womptacular episode at number 1

[Hot - Slunch 772]

I found that Adam Pally non-character work funny too but top 10 really?

 

I really liked Pally barely staying in character, but I didn't vote for the episode since I wasn't thrilled pre-Bro. The first half hour was just Andy and Scott talking... Not that there's anything wrong with that since it was still funny, but for a best-of-the-year I expect a high level of hilarity the entire episode.

New No-No's is my new favorite segment right behind New Ho-Ho-Ho's.

[LaurassicPark 11]

SO YOU GUYS. I am going on a fun drive to (and home from) a funeral that is hours away this week. Can anyone give me suggestions for episodes that would be best to play for someone who has never heard the show before? Also preferably something that won't have me blushing in front of my mom...

 

 

Listening to this episode, I'm thinking Friends Without Words would work pretty well. I wish I could play something with Andy Daly or Jessica St. Clair, but the word "dick" might be in there just a few too many times for my poor mother.
