Welcome to Hobo Chat, hosted by Scottabot Saucerman. This week, our bumbling argumentative hobos are joined by noted television and film director Paul Feig and acclaimed sketch group The Birthday Boys. In between the drug deals and dumpster diving, if you listen carefully you can hear Paul talk about working on the movie Bridesmaids, and The Birthday Boys pitch some movies of their own. Get your first ever glimpse inside the Earwolf Studios Antechamber and the celebrities we’re storing in there for future episodes.

At Sklarbro Country we pride ourselves on our ability to stay current. That’s why we brought in Brett Erlich from Current TV who talks to us about his father’s collegiate football legacy, his relationship with Al Gore, and his near career as a talent agent. Live music is provided this week by Rhett Miller of The Old 97’s who tells us a bit about his current musical plans and how his band embarrassed Dirk Nowitzki. In light of current world affairs Barack Obama makes his inaugural visit to Sklarbro Country. If you are currently in need of legal assistance visit Legal Zoom, and if you currently have nothing to do check out the strangely arousing Gloria Allred video mentioned on this episode. HENDERSON!

In sixteen episodes of The Wolf Den one question has been left unanswered: Who is Jeff? This week we take time to learn who Jeff is, how he became part of this industry, and why he no longer follows the Cubs. You’ll also get to know Intern Peter who is a vital part of the Sklarbro Country/Earwolf team. Stay tuned to the end if you are curious about Project Tippy Toe, or the newly renamed Comedy Bang Bang. There is a lot happening at Earwolf right now, and The Wolf Den is the best way to keep up with it all.

Some works of art can never be approximated: Mink Stole’s performance in Pink Flamingos, Angela Lansbury’s take on Miss Marple, anyone but Ally Sheedy in Hedwig and the Angry Inch, etc. However, this week Drew and his friends Tanya and Jean present their best reenactments of Toy Story, 12 Angry Men, Annie, E.R., and of course All Things Considered. Please be careful what you do with your excess whale meat, and join us next week when the role of Drew Droege will be played by Jennifer Garner.

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to get through these things called Charts. Specifically, the iTunes Singles Chart, the Movie Chart, and Chart Goose. Paul F. Tompkins, one of the greats of living, lends his talents to a discussion of Adele’s awesomeness, the flawed logic of Gwen Stefani’s clothing line, and the evolution of The Black Eyed Peas. And yes, dear chartists, he DOES remix the beloved chart intros. Paul F. Tompkins, charts, what more could one want?

Fast Five might be a critical success and an “event in cinema” (Vin’s words, not ours) but that doesn’t make it immune to criticism. Paul, June, Jason, and Adam Scott discuss the prison bus flip sequence, the chase scene ending with a pregnancy reveal, and all the chronological confusion that lies beneath an otherwise incredible action flick.

May 15, 2011

It’s finally here: The Two Year Anniversary Celebration of Comedy Bang Bang: The Podcast! There are big changes afoot in the CBB universe about which you will hear in this episode, but many things are staying exactly the same. You can still expect hilarious guests like Paul F. Tompkins, Reggie Watts, and Tig Notaro. Nothing is happening to our open door policy and the crazy guests it brings along like Truck Bastien, El Chupacabra, Clive Dundee, and the boys of The Enigma Force Five. And if anything, there will be even more improvisation, fun games, and impromptu musical numbers. Be sure to listen to the inaugural episode of Professor Blastoff and cast your vote for the Comedy Bang Bang theme song.

This episode is dedicated to all the haters! If you’re listening out there, you’ve been BLOCKED! Which is a shame, because you’ll have to miss this great episode with Jay Mohr and Sam Elliott. Jay talks inside baseball about Hollywood, from the perks of filming a movie to secrets from the set of Sanford and Son. Sam Elliott is back with his famous catchphrases, as well as a big announcement regarding his future in literature. Be sure to pick up a HENDERSON! shirt from our store, and if you’re at an IHOP with wifi, maybe check out Legal Zoom (you’ll thank us later).

Last week Paul F. Tompkins cited The Superego Podcast as one that inspired him. This week Superego’s Matt Gourley joins The Wolf Den to discuss what it means to be “the comic’s comic” of podcasting. If any of you listeners have wanted to start a podcast but thought you couldn’t, Matt is proof that if you care enough you can figure it out. The episode is so packed full of valuable podcasting information that we gave you extra content after the closing theme. Check out Superego and whatever you do DO NOT submit an iTunes review (for us, that is).

Kids, if we can teach you anything with this week’s episode it’s DON’T DO DRUGS! Or, if you do, totally lie about it. Or just go ahead and do them and tell the truth. Do you want to be 40 years-old eating Dove chocolates, trying to come up with Folgers theme song, moonlighting as a body double? No, you want to visit France and smoke a lot of pot and write a memoir about it! So listen to Drew, Margee, and Candace and light it up!

What do Tyler Perry movies, Junior Miss Pageants, and West Hollywood spin classes have in common? They all belong in Jackie Clarke’s personal favorites chart. This chart does not include dance music (our music chart of the week), mail-order moms, Indianapolis, or the dreaded Yankees. Last week we debuted the Chart Darts theme song, so what do you think will happen when we get to Chart Roulette? Scary movies, lawsuits, ecstasy, what more could you want from an episode of Who Charted??

To all the listeners who have requested Tim Heidecker: We hope you’re happy. Tim makes his inaugural appearance to talk about…his music? His show? The music on his show? We’re still not sure. Neil Hamburger stops by to set his finances straight and get the word out about his new iPhone app (which has nothing to do with Mountain Dew) before joining the somewhat-agreeable Tim in a game of Dead or Alive. I don’t want to tip off the biggest surprise of the episode, but prepare yourself to hear some classic songs of yesteryear in a whole new light. If you’d like to book Tim or one of his multiple musical projects contact P.D.A. out of Little Rock, or just go to his Tumblr.
