Rarely does the show go super-informative-like, but this episode is a great look into the life of the “Not Ready for Prime Time Players” that make up Saturday Night Live. From the classic Laraine Newman, to the modern Casey Wilson, and the fan-favorite Kevin Nealon learn about the evolution of America’s most famous sketch show.

It’s always great when Scott brings on his friends from Mr. Show, but it’s hard not to be disappointed by the fact that Jerry Minor has given up comedy in place of music. Granted, he’s an amazing musician, as you’ll hear, but it’s still disappointing. Fortunately the fabulous Andy Kindler is there to keep the funny flowing. Brendon Walsh makes his first appearance and talks about his comedy beginnings, as well as his comedy currents.

Unfortunately, Tom Lennon had a hard time getting to the show on time. Fortunately, the new announcer Lil’ Gary was there to keep the pace up. In between Gary’s shouts of confusion, you’ll hear some hi-larious jokes by Matt Braunger and hear about Matt Walsh’s new business plans.

Andy Dick and Bob Odenkirk were two of the cast members of the fabulously fabulous Ben Stiller Show, and they’re on this episode! They bring in new L.A. resident Chelsea Peretti in for some great improvisation and sketch work, like a Cheaters remake and Bob’s last words on his death bed. Several moments from this episode made the “Best of ’09” episode, so you won’t want to miss out!

This episode is all about fame! Famous twitterer Steve Agee talks a bit about his trending topic #2DoucheConvo, Natasha Leggero does the best “ladies comedy” you could ever hear, and Matt Besser tries to figure out just what it would take to get him a trophy, or medallion, or certificate, or maybe just a belt.

Sometimes really talented comedians get some fame. And by sometimes, I mean in the case of Zach Galifianakis and Andy Samberg. Hear a little bit about each of their rises to fame, but certainly do not miss learning about Life of the Party Inc, and the future famous Los Angeles-based comedian, Shooter.

Pardo is back! While most fans loved his last appearance, a certain country disc jockey named A.J. Christopher had some issues with it and came on to give Jimmy advice. But it isn’t all hate for Pardo, The Shaman performs an original Ode to Jimmy Pardo live from the studio! Jimmy Dore is there to bring the funny, especially when Ice T tries SO hard to take the funny away. All this and Doug Loves Movies on this episode of Comedy Bang Bang!

It only took Scott twelve, count ’em, TWELVE episodes to get an Emmy nominee on the show! And that nominee is the fine sir Jon Hamm. He talks about being famous, blah blah blah, and assists El Chupacabra by helping him advertise pajamas. Howard Kremer talks about his love of music, and his love of the town of Austin, TX, while Bobby Bottleservice talks about his love of alcohol and women. Plus, Doug Loves Movies!

Two words: Birthday Checks! That’s right, it’s the premiere of Weirder Scott’s first ever single! But before you fast forward over to that, be sure to listen to Officer Dick Butterfield who has some great safety tips for the summertime. With all of that you’d hardly think there would be time for more features, but you’d be wrong! Doug Loves Movies, Half-Assed Sports Report, Twitter Questions and more, on this episode of Comedy Bang Bang.

They say every musician wants to be a comedian and every comedian wants to be a musician. I happen to think Aimee Mann just enjoys being friends with comedians, but you can’t help but pick up on how funny she is. She and Morgan Murphy bring up the estrogen level of the show as Morgan discusses dirty texts and bad dates. And while the show tries to stay away from advertising, Todd Wickey comes in to talk about the bakery for dogs he runs.

While the death of Michael Jackson put a damper on the comedy community, Scott Aukerman bravely decided to do his show anyways, if nothing else than to put a smiling face on all the grievers and mourners out there. I’m pretty sure he wasn’t expecting a visit from the ghost of Michael Jackson himself. To round out the table (if that’s an expression) Scott has topical comedy genius Neil Hamburger and friend of Michael Jackson’s, R.O. Manse join in to voice their condolences. Dax Shepard co-hosts this beautiful tribute to a lost legend.

Dr. Demento was arguably the most famous comedy radio host…that is, until Scott Aukerman joined the business! The key to Demento’s success was one Mr. “Weird Al” Yankovic, who Scott steals away to bring himself fame. On this episode they discuss Al’s success and music and are joined by celebrated author Richard Dalton and winner of the Indie 103.1 Unknown Comic Contest Jim Pipe.

You’d expect a show like Comedy Bang Bang to be able to get at least one popular movie star each episode, but TWO? That’s unheard of! Until now that is, with Billy Crystal and James Gandolfini both showing up on this episode. While both of those dudes are pretty unfunny, Sarah Silverman and Howard Kremer keep the funny alive with great banter and some live songs from Dragon Boy Suede. The beloved Doug Loves Movies feature shows up on this episode as well, so there is really no reason not to catch it!

An episode with two co-hosts? It cannot be! Well, it is…but, when they’re The Sklar Brothers you can hardly call them two separate entities. With the comedic force of Scott, Jason and Randy, and Paul F. Tompkins, you’d think unfunny was impossible…that is unless you’re newly traumatized observational comic Cal Shipsby. Fortunately things take a lighter turn when the writer of Look Who’s Talking, Jerry Jimson, stops by and talks about his process. And I’d be remiss not to mention that this episode features Doug Loves Movies!

EP. 5 — Guest Host Jimmy Pardo
Guest Paul Gilmartin Maria Bamford Garfunkel & Oates Matt Belknap Pat Francis Doug Benson
Jimmy Pardo is the host of his own show, Never Not Funny, so one would assume that he’d be a good host of Comedy Bang Bang. Well, one would be right! Except for the boring politicians he had on, the show is absolutely phenomenal. Representative Richard Martin and his wife Jazz slow the pace down a bit, but Paul Stanley from KISS brings his rocking attitude in to bring the energy back. All of this plus music from Garfunkel & Oates, a Half-Assed Sports Report, and Doug Loves Movies.
