  • 46 - HOME MOVIE w Amy Miller

    On Sup Doc Ep46 hosts George Chen and Paco Romane sit down with comedian Amy Miller (Last Comic Standing, Punch Line) to discuss the 2001 doc Home Movie a witty look at five unusual homes that have been designed to match the ideas and eccentricities of the people who own them.

    Ben Skora is a self-styled inventor who has tricked out his Illinois home with a variety of unusual gadgets, among them a nine-foot-tall robot. Linda Beach, an American actress who enjoyed a successful career in Japanese television, lives in a tree house in Hawaii that draws its power from a nearby waterfall. Bill Tragle's home is also close to the water, as the Louisiana alligator rancher shows off his luxurious houseboat. Ed Pedan and his wife Diana Pedan have made a home out of an abandoned underground complex in Kansas, built and then abandoned by the American military. And Bob Walker and Francis Mooney designed their home not with their own needs in mind, but those of their 11 pet cats.

    Directed by Chris Smith, who previously made the acclaimed documentaries American Job and American Movie, Home Movie had its premiere at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival. Look for Amy's new comedy cd SOLID GOLD out NOW on Kill Rock Stars.

  • NEXT WEEK: 12/12 HOME MOVIE with comedian Amy Miller
    Airs Monday Dec 12th. Next week on Sup Doc, Paco and George sit down with comedian Amy Miller who talks about her very FAVORITE documentary Home Movie (2001).
    American Movie Director Chris Smith travels to five unusual dwellings and interviews the unlikely characters that populate them. From the Louisiana Bayou to a literal treehouse in Hawaii, and many bizarre stops in between, it's a fascinating look at what makes a home.
    We talk about homes, families, cats, 924 Gilman, and Amy’s debut album “Solid Gold”, out now on Kill Rock Stars.
    Home Movie is a hard-to-track-down DVD, but find it where you can (we recommend the library!) and join us for the conversation.

  • 45 - WEINER w Megan Koester

    On episode 45 of Sup Doc Paco and George talk with VICE writer and comedian Megan Koester about the 2016 documentary Weiner. This documentary centers around ex-Congressman Anthony Weiner as he navigates the fallout (his wife, Huma Abedin, recently separated from him) of yet another alleged sexting scandal — his second since landing in hot water after tweeting explicit photos of himself to a woman via Twitter in 2011 — buzz surrounding the documentary about his life, aptly titled Weiner, has reached an all-time high. The social and political aftermath of #Weinergate 2011 is intensely chronicled in Josh Kriegman and Elyse Steinberg’s sometimes endearing, often uncomfortably funny, endlessly fascinating portrait of the former New York congressman. We also find out more about Megan and talk about movies, politics, Woody Allen, Trump, and dick pics.

    Megan Koester is a writer and comedian (obviously) who resides in Los Angeles (somewhat less obviously). A columnist for VICE, she co-produces Entitlement, a monthly comedy show with other VICE scribes which has had the pleasure to host such notables as Neil Hamburger, Marc Maron, Kyle Kinane, Maria Bamford, Kurt Braunohler, Reggie Watts, and Andy Kindler (who she collaborated with on her "How Not to Be a Stand-Up Comedian" article for VICE). She's performed at SF Sketchfest, the Hollywood Improv, the SF Punchline, Tomorrow!, The Grawlix, Chicago Underground Comedy, and countless other shows across this great land we call America. She has her very own track on the Holy Fuck Live Comedy album, which you can listen to on Spotify if you're so inclined. She USED to be a staple of those Huffington Post "Women You Should Follow on Twitter" lists until she started making a big stink about them being patronizing; she's also one third of the all-female (sorry) sketch group Blessed. A Guardian UK and Witstream contributor, she's been featured on Splitsider and is finding it very hard to continue writing this bio in the third person. You can follow her on Twitter

  • 44 - YOU DON'T KNOW BO w Billy Wayne Davis

    On Ep 44 Paco and George sit down with comedian Billy Wayne Davis. You may have seen Billy Wayne on Last Comic Standing or heard him on Marc Maron's podcast WTF. We talk to BW's about his start at Zanies in Nashville, his dog Bo Jackson, his own docs-series on CMT called Freedom, ligers, how comedy and sports are related and of course the 30 for 30 documentary You Don't Know Bo: The Legend of Bo Jackson. Billy Wayne has worked with well known comics such as: Colin Quinn, Lisa Lampanelli, Louis C.K., and Mitch Hedberg. He has also toured extensively with Ralphie May. Even without winning a Super Bowl or World Series, Bo will forever be known as a cultural icon and one of the most famous athletes of all time. This film examines the truths and tall tales that surround Jackson, and how his seemingly impossible feats captured our collective imagination for an all-too-brief moment in time. **Sup Doc has created a Patreon page for those that can help out.
