  • 51 THE KID STAYS IN THE PICTURE w Henry Phillips (comedian)
    George Chen and Paco Romane talk with comedian/musician Henry Phillips about his favorite doc THE KID STAYS IN THE PICTURE!
    Released in 2002, The Kid Stays in the Picture uses Evans' narration interspersed mostly with photographs from Evans' life as well as brief film footage from films such as Love Story, The Sun Also Rises, Rosemary's Baby, Chinatown, and The Godfather just to name a few...what makes this doc so great is Evans himself and how he changed Hollywood.
    Henry Phillips has been seen and heard performing his twisted songs and stories on ‘Comedy Central Presents’, ABC’s ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’, as well as satellite and terrestrial radio nationwide. His critically acclaimed comedy albums earned him mention in Billboard magazine’s ‘Critic’s Choice’, as well as acclaim from such notable artists as Moby, who has referred to Phillips’ music as “disconcertingly funny”. He has also made acting appearances on HBO’s “Silicon Valley” (4 episodes) and Comedy Central’s “Drunk History”. His YouTube channel, featuring the tutorial cooking series “Henry’s Kitchen”, has garnered over 3 million views. Phillips continues to tour comedy and music venues throughout the US and beyond.
    Speaking of Hollywood, Henry’s newest movie PUNCHING HENRY hits On Demand on February 21st and will open in select theaters on February 24th.

  • 50 - LIVE: MEMORIAL DAY 2000 w Cory Sklar, Emily Van Dyke, Melissa McQueen, and Frankie G

    Episode 50 Live at San Francisco Sketchfest 2017.

    For our live show we screened the cult classic "found footage" home movie Memorial Day 2000. Just a good clean video of Northern Michigan folks (Mike, Amy, Tom, and Kiersten) on vacation in a trailer setting things on fire, singing the Star-Spangled Banner, riding ATVs, throwing up, and having epic mudfights. Supposedly found as a VHS at a garage sale, Carly Ptak and Twig Harper (Nautical Almanac) sold the edited version through their website/noise label Heresee. It was discontinued at the request of the participants, but the legend lives on 16 years later. We talk about our own youthful indiscretions, Juggalos, Springer, Faygo, Warped Tour, sloppy joe tacos, Northern Cities Vowel Shift, what constitutes a documentary, camping fails, and much more. We even get to hear Paco play piano. Our esteemed panel included musician and radio host (Illogical Contraption) Cory Sklar (aka Chaki), comedians Melissa McQueen (Dorks Of Yore, Punching Henry), Frankie G (Killing My Lobster), and Emily Van Dyke.

    Recorded Sunday January 29th at Pianofight.

  • 48 - DEATH OF SUPERMAN LIVES w comedian Bert DiVietri

    Paco and George sit down with comedian Bert DiVietri to talk about his favorite documentary The Death of "Superman Lives": What Happened? Director Jon Schnepp’s 2015 film looks at the infamous Tim Burton reboot of Superman starring Nicholas Cage, which never got made. We talk to Bert about DC vs. Marvel, fantasy casting, Kevin Smith, Jon Peters’s headlocks, fandom, and more. The film is also streaming on Showtime

    Bert DiVietri is a Los Angeles comedian from Lansing Michigan. Growing up undiagnosed with ADHD Bert loves to talk about dealing with his disability as an adult. Not a lot of people are open and willing to joke about their life long disabilities but Bert makes sure to deprecate. Bert was a regular at the world famous Purple Onion, a member of the Young Guns of Comedy, and the co-founder of the comedy hip-hop group Death Ray Astray who recently released two music videos for their most requested songs. Bert DiVietri has been featured in military fundraisers, nerd comedy venues, and hip hop comedy shows all across the USA. If Bert is performing in your club, it's a surefire sign that you are probably real awesome.
