StolenDress Sidecasts

Nothing like Christmas in January.  And nothing like a fellow vinyl comedy nerd like the incomparable Josh Mills to talk about Ernie Kovacs again!  Black Friday Record Store day 2013 gave us this little snapshot of more Percy Dovetonsils goodness, and it’s delightfully Christmasy, to boot.  Listen to us talk Ernie, Edie and what might be in our buddy Adam Storm’s attic.

On this apostro-free episode of Comedy on Vinyl*, Jake Fogelnest and I talk National Lampoon and revisit “That’s Not Funny, That’s Sick.”  We discuss Jake’s love of comedy and obscure media, as well as his time at MTV.

*Apparently, apostrophes break iTunes.  A piece of information you didn’t need.

Sara Pocock proposed the idea that someone should introduce her to something brand-new, at least to her.  A classic she’d never heard of, or never new was important enough to listen to.  She picked the authority – James Urbaniak.  James picked one of the best – An Evening with Mike Nichols and Elaine May.  Because I can’t think of a better title, I’m calling this subseries “DISCovery.”  Submissions for better titles are welcome.

Also, coming back this week is bittersweet.  A few weeks ago, my wife lost her father, Tom Smith, who you’ll see with Cheech and Chong above in a photo I finally got to see when I was putting together the photos for his memorial.  Naturally, I was hoping I’d get to hear more of the story behind the photo from Tom himself, but I do know he got to interview two of my heroes.  My picture with Philip Proctor, though, was of an experience Tom coveted, himself, so we got to share our love of comedy that way.

This week, the Bender head comes off the bookshelf for the man behind the shiny metal ass.  John DiMaggio is not only the voice of Bender, and of Jake on Adventure Time, but he’s also a huge Carlin fan.  We sat down and talked a mutual favorite album, Class Clown, and I had the good fortune to watch and hear him imitate Carlin.  Amazing stuff.  John’s also the producer and narrator of the new documentary “I Know That Voice,” about almost every voice actor you’ve ever heard.  I Know that Voice will be on demand from December 1-21st, and available on iTunes starting January 7, 2014.

Oh, and in this episode, I also come up with an idea for the greatest a capella group ever.

Daniel Weidenfeld co-executive produces the wonderfully surreal “China, IL” on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim with the show’s creator, Brad Neely.  Daniel wanted to talk about Chris Rock’s “Bring the Pain,” and we had a great time doing it.

You’ve seen Omar Dorsey on Eastbound and Down, in Django Unchained and you’ll see him on Fox’s upcoming series rake.  He wanted to talk with me about Martin Lawrence’s album “Talkin’ Shit,” because, as Omar sees it, Martin was the first real hip-hop comedian.  We had a great time talking, and we also got to bring up Sheneneh.

Jack Dolgen has created the music for a ton of music and TV shows you’ve doubtless seen, and he’s also co-writer/co-producer on many of Rachel Bloom’s music.  I wanted to get the other mind behind “Fuck Me, Ray Bradbury” to sit down and talk about his influences.  Lucky for me, he picked my heroes.

Derrick Beckles dropped by to talk Canada, humor, Canadian humor, Rusty Warren and his comedy influences in general.  It was a hell of a lot of fun.  He’s the host and creator of Adult Swim’s alternate-universe entertainment show Hot Package, which you should watch Thursdays at 12:45 AM.

Brian Hall is a co-host of The MovieFilm Podcast and he’s the first to request The Simpsons, in any form.  While “The Simpsons Sing the Blues” isn’t exactly what you’d call their “A Material,” it’s a great snapshot of how this small nothing of a show became popular seemingly overnight, so much so that it had to be capitalized upon with a dance craze and a song co-written by none other than Michael Jackson.

David Melville is the co-founder of LA’s Independent Shakespeare Company.  I interviewed him just before an hilarious performance of As You Like It at this summer’s Griffith Park Festival.  It was a ton of fun, even if the audience got a bit rowdy toward the end.  Also, listen to the end of the episode for a clip of David as Touchstone.
