I was watching the mst3k turkey day presentation of Pumaman and there's a scene where the titular Pumaman gets thrown through a window and they make a joke about refenestration.

I've probably heard this line 5 or 6 times in my life and never got it until now. Thanks Comedy Bang Bang.

Betsy Sodaro is pretty hot and miss with me but she was pretty good on With Special Guest. Thought she got better as it went on.

So Twittels went full plonker... He did another You Made It Weird and spoke about all the shizzle that went on with him.

Prior to his first rehab he talks about his run in with Scientology.
Then after rehab, his relapse into snorting then shooting up heroin (and the story of him getting H for the first time)
(?_?)
Then his second round of rehab and where he is now.

Gonna need to listen to this. Those Phish episodes where he talked about getting sober were some of the best ones. It's cool that he is so open about his struggles.

Unfortunately he apparently relapsed hard after those episodes and had to go back to rehab.

But I'll be damned if I didn't laugh at
his adventures into finding heroin...

Also, more Wild Horses on CBB please. They're great on I4H and it was great to have them on CBB. Colin Hanks was great too.

One of those three things may be very relevant to me :(

Pamela Murphy is one of the most underrated CBB guests. She's so freaking good.

I about died when Scott forced her him to name all 25 band members.

Man, I have such a bad memory. I don't remember what individual episodes I liked in order to vote for them. The only one that stands out is horse fighting so I voted for that one.

Really great list. Mine would be similar. I think I'd take Ruth Ross off the list, even though Wengert was amazing.

Yeah, I'm not a particularly big Tenacious D fan, but holy shit, Wengert is awesome in it. His performance alone gets it on the list.

"WORKOUT G."

"What does the G stand for?"

"Gloves."

Yup, I'm a big fan of Wengert, even if his characters don't always stick with me (I think he's better on i4h for the most part because of its shorter structure). However, Shelley Orangina is in my top 10 characters. He doesn't seem keen on bringing back characters, but I'd love him to bring that one back.

I've noticed he and Lapkus are on quite a few eps together. Are/were they comedy partners? I know she does Wild Horses but I wasn't sure if she and Wengert had a UCB show together or something.

good list, but I'd have 274 and 300 on it, but that's just me as a Jason Mantzoukas fan....

One of my favourite Wengert bits was when he was Mr G, the frozen yoghurt diner owner. Him talking about his website's message board and how people were posting that the store was open until midnight and there was a party in the car park after closing, and posting pictures of him in a tuxedo with "STARTED AT THE BOTTOM, NOW WE HERE" on it cracked me up so much. Don't know why that's stuck with me for so long.

The 4th series of CBB won't have wrapped by then, will it? Surely the two would clash.

Shop Talkerman said he'll be on the first half of season 4 and will have a sendoff ep (hopefully one as good as Bookie's send off). He also said they already have a new bandleader in talks but didn't want to spoil who it was. that excites me

much as I'll miss regige on the show, another musician-comedian could prove just as much fun. And having a talent as weird and awesome as Reggie on a primetime talk show is cool as hell.

Holy shit, if you like listening to trainwrecks, you need to listen the Hollywood Handbook episode with Pauly Shore. I initially skipped it because I figured Pauly Shore would terrible, but after followup episode was basically an apology, I had to listen myself. If you're not familiar with show, the first half will make it clear what it is about (including a ridiculous Engineeer Cody fuckup) and the second half is Pauly Shore completely not getting it. It's amazing. The hosts basically throw Cody to the abyss that is Pauly Shore and he manages to roll with it. Great awful episode, I'm glad I went back to listen to it.

I actually haven't been listening to HH that long, I started with Lauren Lapkus episode and I loved it. It's what I wanted out of Topics, which is basically the part in Farts and Procreation where the stream of consciousness insanity breaks through the attempt at playing it straight. Plus the shitting on the engineers and interns is always great. Does anyone have any recommendations if I loved the Lauren Lapkus and Tracey Wigfield episodes?

I don't think it was that bad of a train wreck, Sean and Hayes handled him perfectly. They are so good at rolling with a guest that doesn't play along so it wasn't bad at all.

I found HH because of Lapkus too! Well, I mean, I knew about it but I didn't ever listen to it. I love it now! The Paul Scheer episode was hilarious. I'll have to listen to the Pauly Shore episode. I skipped it too! :p

Oh they weren't the problem. They did their best, but there is no salvaging the intro to the Popcorn Gallery. It's unfathomable how much they had to explain it to him. There are moments where Pauly Shore is making jokes but he was lost for most of it and they couldn't bring him in.

I relistened to i4h from last week (the live one) and they updated it and bleeped out the name of the dude Eric's fiancée cheated on him with. That part is kind of nonsensical now. It was a weird name.

I surprised they left it in originally. You'd think they would have learnt from the previous times when episodes have come back to bite people.

What happened in past episodes?
Click to expand...

Pretty sure I'm remembering the wrong person but my head is saying Jon Glaser. He (or someone else) was on the show and told a tale about a neighbour that was pissed off about a two unit house that was build that blocked his view. He acted like a dick and there was a chainsaw involved somewhere. The neighbour found out about it.
Then there's Zack talking about ?Mel Gibson that blew up. I have vague recollections of a few others but nothing specific.

Not earwolf related but TJ Miller recently (probably) messed up any chance of working with Michael Bay again on Doug Loves Movies. He made some cheap jokes about charity work he does and Bay was informed about it. He talked about the fallout on You Made It Weird.

The Sinbad episode of HH might be my favorite, he really gets into it.
