Anyone listen to the latest TESD? I was curious to what they bleeped out but I'm going to assume it was Walt plugging another listener.

Thanks to you goons I've been listening to back episodes of UYD. Are there any episodes that would be considered a fan favorite or best. Ala "making hay" from TESD or Maron's interview with Mencia on WTF.

Same on both accounts. When Holmes at the end said "A CD from my boyfriend" I was like "What a weird joke", then I immediately went online to check, and, yup, dude's gay.

ALSO GUYS. I am so loving psyched for the WTF where Maron interviews Ira Glass. That can be nothing but fantastic.

BTW, the "Lovegoose" talk on this week's My Brother, My Brother and Me may be the finest 5 minutes the show has ever had. And that's saying something.

Hey, look. Look, if- if you screw me on this, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine, you rat bastard!
I don't think a single person mentioned the long-defunct Dan and Scott Show from the 90s. Sort of a precursor of the now popular podcast comedy show, it aired 5 nights a week for about 2-3 hours only on the internet in Realaudio or WMA streaming with some streaming archives that were kept up for a few years.

About 6 years ago I lucked into some old shows from various places on the net, and I think there are currently some posted on youtube, but I still miss the experience of listening live and commenting about the show in the chatroom.

It started on their own server, I seem to recall, then moved over to Talkspot.com with several other internet talk shows. These were the Seattle years and I thought the VERY best of the show. They had a lot of B-list guests, did prank calls, played games, did goofy stuff, etc. I used to record their shows onto audio tape and even hooked my computer into a VCR to get 2-3 uninterrupted shows saved.

Then around May of 1999, Talkspot closed shop.

From there they weren't anywhere at all for several months until they were on a site called Hitthebeach.com for a very short time before going to an new internet start-up called eYada.com for a show that lasted until the Summer of 2001.

eYada was a little strange because it was a combination of a lot of little things that destroyed them. Deciding to put themselves in the middle of NYC was an unneeded expense, the popular wrestling show they had was kneecapped when the WWE forbid their talent from doing any unapproved interviews, and once prestigious sponsors were getting replaced with shadier and less high-paying ones.

Once eYada went under, there was talk that D&S show MIGHT have ended up on satellite radio (well before Stern and Opie and Anthony) but nothing ever materialized.

This was the first time I was able to enjoy CDR. I usually give up 5 - 10 minutes in if the episode isn't doing it for me.

Do they have Chupacabra-like characters on there often? If so, I'll start giving it more of a shot.

I might be wrong, but I think the very vast majority of the time Nick Kroll is on, if not every single time, he does Chupacabra. Usually his call is from a baby though, the exact same baby every time. This is the first time I remember a goat calling the show. At first I got pretty annoyed with Chupacabra, but he has grown on me.

I've discovered, Re: The Len Malton game, that I can usually guess in 0 or negative names for the movies that they sometimes have problems with. Elf was a big one from before (but that was months ago), as soon as they mentioned some black guy doing a voice, I caught it. This week when they said the year of the cross dresser movie and Len's reivew of it, I had it. I'm so pissed I missed when Doug Benson was in Nashville, but I seriously want to hit up one of his shows, even if it's in another city or state and try to get on stage for the game.

I got tripped up on BttF 3 though. I had always thought everybody loved it, and even that some people considered it the best of the trilogy. So I was surprised when Doug said he didn't care for it, but otherwise I might have guessed that.

Edit: And yeah, I double posted. I win the game.

He doesn't do the Len Malton game often at his live shows. Usually only when there is something going on in the city when a bunch of other comedians are available and he can throw a podcast out of it.

The last week or so there has been a running joke across Bumbershoot podcasts with Doug being on almost every one mainly just to plug his new CD. He even steps out briefly in this weeks Nerdist to run next door and do another plug, but then is back by the end.

He was in Boise a couple weeks back did his set then went and hung out in a restaurant up the street for a couple hours.

On the most recent ep of the Joe Rogan podcast, Rogan starts going about a pretty interesting story about a pool player who also was addicted to junk. While the story is pretty fascinating by itself, it has a conclusion that really bothered me for some reason. Not because it was unexpected, but it just ended in a really weird and bit disturbing fashion.

Well she no longer drinks and wasn't being a shrill political freak. That goes a long way to make her seem less annoying. Plus being next to andy Dicks hysterics makes anyone seem mellow. I've actually met Ms. Garofalo in a social setting and she was rather pleasant. That that was when she was drinking so it was a long time ago.

I ran down Tig Notaro earlier, but the episode of CDR with her and Weird Al guest hosted by Paul F. Tompkins was pretty great. It's a pretty unlikely trio, but it was a great episode. The very next one with Matt Walsh and Nick Swardson was amazing, too (around 21 or 22, I think).

The episodes guest hosted by Jimmy Pardo are funny if only for his barely contained loathing of comedy music.

In short, this is a great thread, and thanks to turning me on to some great stuff.

I used to love listening to that show when it was on Eyada. I think the best part was the audience participation.

To anyone not familiar with the show, on Fridays they would do "This isn't Phone Sex You Dumbfuck". They had their listeners go out into chatrooms around the internet pretending to be girls wanting to have phone sex. The listeners would then give the guy the phone number to the studio, where Dan and Scott would have a girl or their producer talk to and have phone sex with the guy. Then right as the guy is about to climax, they bust in with Star Wars sound effects and tell the guy he's been live on an internet radio show the whole time and basically make fun of him. How was that even legal?

That sounds hilarious. Are there audio archives of this somewhere?

When I'd searched for a Phil Hendrie podcast, I found this - some guy had taken classic bits that he liked and put them up in podcast format. This is pretty much exactly what I'd want. Unfortunately, they sicced lawyers on him, and he had to pull the whole thing down.

I posted it earlier on in the thread, but I figure, in case anyone just wants to give it a quick try, I humbly suggest Ask Mr Biggs. I wouldn't repost if it wasn't a fantastic-yet-infrequent-podcast/show.
This show is subtly brilliant and needs to be mentioned again, thanks for posting it (the boomerang of gratitude has come back to you). I just started listening, and it took me a couple episodes to really get into it, but I love it.

It's also worth mentioning how really well it's recorded, the audio quality is excellent, and there's a lot of low-key background stuff going on constantly throughout the episodes that isn't necessary but really enhances the comedy.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:

Anyway, do you have any problems subscribing/downloading their stuff from iTunes? It won't let me get the old episodes from there anymore, and the new one doesn't show up.
I've had to download them all straight from the Itunes store page directly, for some reason subscribing doesn't seem to work. I checked the podcast URL in the subscription feed and that seems to be correct, it just doesn't let me download anything that way.

The other part of TIPSYDF was the girl's 'dad' always picking up the phone talking to his wife in the background to the effect of, "...I'm calling Wilson." There were a few of those that got really crazy, too. I remember this one where Dan as the 'dad' acted like he walked in on his daughter masturbating herself to the phone sex.

The other fun game was "Scott Free On Hold" where they'd call up a business then in the middle of the conversation go, "Oh, hey, can I put you on hold a second, something just came up..." Their 'on-hold' radio station was Magic 105 hosted by Scott Free. It's a normal Top 40 station at first, then Scott Free gets pretty raunchy and graphic and they'd keep it up until the person on the other end would say something about it.

Also, the Gary Game that I think they couldn't do on eYada at all. In fact, I think that they couldn't even NAME him on the show, only referring to him as 'Gary McBlank' due to a lawsuit threat. Someone posted it over on youtube and it's still pretty insane.

Great memories of the show. XXX-Files, Manload On Hollywood, Rumor Mill, The Heisel Game (same as the Gary Game, different crazy message), etc. Just fun times. Mr. Polite was the BEST audience member who would call in all the time.

Mosier is pretty much the only reason the show is funny, otherwise Kevin would just vamp all day about pussy and masturbating (which he does when he has a guest co-host). None of the co-hosts know how to play along and they rarely have a thought on any subject, and even if they did have a thought they don't talk about it the way that Mosier does.
