Scott shares his enthusiasm for season two of the Comedy Bang Bang TV series, which premieres on IFC this Friday July 12th, and Ben and Scott discuss the new season of Ben’s series House of Pies. Werner discusses the plight of working with a green screen, reveals what kind of vehicle he drives and what it’s like working on a film with Thomas Cruise. The filmography of Prince and the pronunciation of the word “marshmallow” are mentioned before Werner clues us in on his favorite film of all time and Ben tries out a new character. Comedy Bang Bang will return with a very special B-B-B-BONUS episode this Thursday.
