COMEDY BANG! BANG! – Lights Up, Laughs & Musical Shenanigans

August 18, 2024 in PODCAST

If you haven’t yet stumbled upon Comedy Bang! Bang!, you might just be missing out on one of the quirkiest, most delightfully chaotic corners of the podcast universe. With a loyal audience of over 100,000 downloads per episode, host Scott Aukerman (“Mr. Show” & “Between Two Ferns: The Movie ”), masterfully blends stand-up comedy, wit, and enough improv to make you wonder if any of his guests are actually just actors awaiting a dramatic reveal in a game show about absurdity. You know, typical things for a podcast! 

Jack Black (R.) Joins Scott Aukerman’s popular podcast to listen to Cumberbatch County Vigilante J.W. Stillwater’s (L.) interview On Comedy Bang! Bang!

Join Scott as he interviews celebrity guests like Jack Black, Jon Hamm, Bob Odenkirk, Tatiana Maslany, Allison Williams, and more. Plus, the show’s open-door policy brings an assortment of eccentric oddballs and characters who pop by at any moment to chat, compete in games, and engage in comic revelry. Now entering its 15th year, this podcast has led to multiple spin-off podcasts, a New York Times best-selling book, and a beloved television series on IFC.

Now, let’s talk guests. One minute you’re getting the comedic genius of Reggie Watts serenading you with an improvised song about hamsters or existential dread, and the next, you’re wallowing in the wild semantics of Andrew Lloyd Webber and his musical take on the postal service. Seriously, where else can you find a conversation that seamlessly transitions from a discussion about the economic implications of a cat playing jazz piano to an earnest plea for more bananas in the fruit aisle? It’s the kind of chaotic brilliance that makes you feel like you’ve stumbled into a dinner party where everyone is both a genius and slightly unhinged.

It isn’t just the bizarre subjects that draw people in; it’s the vibrant mix of recurring guests like the hilarious Paul F. Tompkins or the unforgettably eccentric Lauren Lapkus, who seem to thrive in this realm of ridiculousness. They transform traditional interviews into wild experiments in absurdity, often creating characters that are odd yet oddly relatable, like the silly cult leader who insists that they can commune with the UPS driver. Whether they’re reenacting scenes from soap operas or brainstorming ideas for fictional food trucks, nothing is too outlandish for these comedy legends.

The show’s typical subject matter encompasses everything from pop culture critiques to surreal ponderings about everyday life. One episode could have Scott and his guests discussing the cultural significance of magic eight balls, while the next could involve an intense debate about sandwich construction techniques. Will it create a rift in the space-time continuum if you put mustard on a turkey club? That’s the question that opens the door to a brilliant mix of banter and belly laughs. It’s impressive how the show can give legit comedy advice one moment and, in the next, create a rambling metaphor about how cereal might just be the key to understanding intergalactic travel.

Of course, we can’t forget the musical element that sets Comedy Bang! Bang! apart. Each episode often features musical skits that leave you wondering if your brain is on a funky, jazz-infused joyride or if you’ve accidentally eaten one too many gummy bears. With musical guests spanning a range of genres and styles, you might find yourself jamming out to a catchy tune about the pros and cons of mattress stores. It’s a delightful auditory experience that has you tapping your feet while wondering if you should be concerned about your newfound obsession with mattress-related jingles.

In case you haven’t noticed, Comedy Bang! Bang! combines all the best ingredients for a hilarious escape from reality. It’s like opening a box of assorted chocolates, only to find out each piece is stuffed with unexpected flavors—you just never know what joyful surprise awaits you next. So, grab your headphones, settle in, and get ready to laugh until you question your own sanity. If you’ve never listened before, we promise, you’re in for an unpredictable comedic journey that will have you cackling and shaking your head in equal measure.

MY DAD WROTE A PORNO- We’re Sharing His Seedy/Funny Writings…

August 14, 2024 in PODCAST


If you haven’t yet stumbled upon the comedic gem that is My Dad Wrote A Porno, it’s time to rectify that glaring oversight. Imagine this: your dad, sweet old Dad, decides one day to pursue a second career in erotica. Now, instead of calling you to share his dreams of being a writer, he’s passing you hand-written pages of his self-published “masterpiece.” Enter hosts Jamie Morton, James Cooper, and Alice Levine, who don’t just read these cringe-worthy stories aloud—they dissect them, laugh about them, and, quite frankly, provide a hilariously awkward backdrop for some of the most scandalously bad writing ever committed to paper. It’s like a literary roast fest, but with far more innuendo and absurd scenarios that make you question your upbringing.

(L-R) Alice Levine Jamie Morton, and James Cooper on ‘My Dad Wrote A Porno’ Podcast


The podcast has captured the attention of nearly 2 million listeners, which is no surprise considering how effortlessly it blends the ridiculous with the raucously funny. Each episode features a special guest—comedians, actors, and even a few brave authors who are all willing to dive into the peculiar world of amateur erotica. The guests, ranging from comedic heavyweights to up-and-coming icons, always add their own unique flair to the proceedings. Whether it’s a big name who expertly delivers a personalized reading of a particularly absurd passage or a quirky guest who can barely contain their laughter, the chemistry between hosts and guests fuels the outrageous atmosphere. You may find people like David O’Doherty and Richard Herring dissecting just how an old man can misinterpret a romantic encounter so dramatically, and the hilarious conclusions they draw only heighten the absurdity.


Let’s talk about the content itself—if you can call it that. The tales of “Belinda Blinked” (the poorly realized protagonist who seems to be on a never-ending quest for poorly described sexual escapades) are a crash course in bad writing. You could almost say that every episode is a masterclass in “How Not to Write Erotica.” Plot holes? Check. Inappropriate analogies? Double-check. Excessive descriptions that make you question your very existence? You bet!

One episode had me in stitches as the trio dissected a scene that revolved around an intimate encounter in a potato factory. Yes, you read that correctly. The only thing funnier than the original prose is hearing Jamie, James, and Alice labor through the discomfort as they read it aloud, desperately trying to keep their laughter in check.
Listeners tuning in to My Dad Wrote a Porno can expect not just to appreciate the sheer unintentional comedy of a father’s ill-fated literary ambitions, but also to engage with a lively community of fellow fans who revel in the shared cringe. The podcast stands out for its ability to transform something embarrassingly personal into universal laughter, reminding us that, no matter how awkward our family encounters may be, it’s always better when we can laugh at it together. So sit back, relax, and prepare for an auditory experience that’s both painfully awkward and uproariously funny—just don’t blame me if you find yourself snorting tea out of your nose!

The podcast, which has amassed millions of listeners, takes you on a journey where Conan, the lanky king of late night, persuades some of the biggest stars to share their innermost thoughts, stories, and possibly embarrassing moments, all while engaging in comedic banter that feels both intimate and ridiculous.


Each episode typically features a celebrity guest who Conan claims he desperately wants as a friend. One day it could be Paul Rudd—the loveable actor who has somehow managed to become eternally youthful while navigating the chaotic waters of Hollywood. You can almost hear the collective “aww” of fans when Paul shares his delightfully weird stories about being cast in role after role despite having, what he calls, the “face of an everyday guy.”

And then, of course, there’s the ever-charming Maya Rudolph, who effortlessly matches Conan’s humor while dishing out tales of her time on Saturday Night Live. It’s a veritable comedy buffet where every guest seems to be trying to out-funny the last, and the results are as satisfying as an oversized slice of cake—and just as indulgent.


Throughout the episodes, Conan explores subject matter that often flirts with the outlandish. From dissecting his lifelong fear of the dark (thank you, childhood) to recounting the ill-fated haircut he infamously sported in high school, the show has a knack for reminding us that no one—celebrity or otherwise—is immune to the cringe-worthy moments of life. The discussions circle around vulnerability and insecurity in an uproarious way that makes you feel, “Hey, we’re all in this ridiculous human experience together!” It’s therapy wrapped in laughter, making us snicker at our oddities while also giving us a touchstone of self-acceptance.


The real charm of Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend lies not just in the mishaps of its guests or the humor itself but also in the dynamic of Conan as a host. His self-deprecating humor—often about the absurdity of his fame—is peppered with a genuine curiosity for the guests’ lives. He asks the questions we all want to know but would never dare to ask because we have yet to develop a fifth of his charisma. Instead of grilling them with the usual tabloid drivel, Conan dives into the awkward, sweet, and truly human aspects of celebrity life, revealing hidden layers of each of his guests. Picture a toddler left alone with a tub of frosting—yeah, it’s pure chaos and delight.
As of now, Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend boasts an impressive total audience viewership, with millions tuning in weekly to soak up the laughs and life lessons. The podcast has transformed from a simple medium to a cultural phenomenon, celebrating laughter while crafting friendships in the strangest corners of Hollywood. In a world that feels increasingly disconnected, Conan reminds us to lean into the hilarity of our shared experiences—because sometimes, the best way to connect with others is to simply have a good laugh. So grab your headphones, and let Conan lead you through a hilariously heartwarming romp of self-discovery, celebrity confessions, and the eternal quest for friendship.
