Swish Edition

SE147: The Password


Listen Later

We're thrilled to have Canadian funny man Scott Thompson stop by for a chat this week. You know him best as a part of the comedy troupe The Kids In the Hall and together with Kevin McDonald, Scott is currently on tour with a brand new two-man, stand-up/sketch version of their unique brand of humor called, Two Kids, One Hall. They're stopping by the Arlington, Virginia Cinema & Draft House August 19 & 20, and have dates scheduled all over the country through the fall.

Scott tells us why Canadians have exported so many funny people, why he's obsessed with fruit, who he finds funny (including frequent Swish guest Margaret Cho!), and how he shares a name with American comedian Carrot Top! He also tells us about his a passion project, his Danny Husk graphic novel (including a bi-sexual king and human/non-human sex, of course).

The show is really excited to be bringing you guys new music almost every single week...and this one is no different. geO Louis is a young hottie singer/songwriter/performer out of the NYC and we not only chat with him for a few minutes about his sound but we have two of his poppy dance tracks, Work and Over & Over. (And...um...you need to scroll all the way to the bottom of this page to see a picture we found of geO we kinda dig.)

And with special in-studio guest host Eboné Bell--one of our favorite lesbians, she of B.O.I. Marketing & the Capital Queer Prom--the kids team up and play Jason's version of "Password." Eboné's girlfriend Angel helps with the words and let's just say that comedy ensues. This game is certainly going to make it into rotation; it's a hoot. ALSO ON THIS EPISODE...
