The Slap Booth Show

It’s so hot in Los Angeles right now, SO hot… can’t think, can’t write… go ahead and mix ‘n’ match the following yourselfs for this week’s guest, Jon Schnepp: writer, director, Metalocalypse, editor, Venture Bros., UCB, Space Ghost, Grimm Fairy Tales… 

Track down his contribution to The ABCs of Death!

But first… Francis Bilbix.

And first first, for our cold open: the very important question from podcast #012 is answered – and the tears are real.

Hey – Poubelles will also be at Comikaze on Sunday 9/16 12pm-3pm at the Skellramics booth #1151.  Visit and buy our friends’ awesome ceramic stuff, please.

Opening song “One Glance (At the Jolly Roger)” by Hobo Jazz. If you like it, come by R Bar this Friday the 14th to hear lead Hobo Marquis DJing a twenties dance party!  It’s also our birthday.

Best-selling author Robert Greene (The 48 Laws of Power, The 33 Strategies of War, The 50th Law, et al.) stopped by to discuss his new book Mastery, as well as collaborating with 50 Cent (and us), his rampant ruining of lives, war on Squirrel World, and the required reading within his The Art of Seduction. We were honored to hear exactly what type of Seducers we are (watch out, Victims!)  Please note: Bibi promised to edit the interview to make Robert look bad; she failed.

Here you go, book-buyers! (Go ahead and pre-order Mastery here.)

Read Robert’s blog!

Spoiler: in the twintro, us twins announce… we’re going to have a very special announcement.  Please don’t try to top that.

August 9th – Lucha VaVOOM‘s 10th anniversary show

This week we welcome Lili Chin – artist, animator, doggie enthusiast, and ice-cream creator. We discuss her WB series “Mucha Lucha,” our first meeting (involving a folding chair and concussion), Boogie the Dog with Issues (who *almost* got her on “The Dog Whisperer”) –  and we live-taste her delicious ice cream recipes (which she will gladly make for a new Agent). YUM!

Upcoming Poubelles a-plenty!

6/7 – Tulsa Skull Swingers @ 10:30pm, Club Tarantino / 3 Clubs

Ever wondered what a chat with Brendon Small (Metalocalypse, Home Movies, general guitar virtuosiness) would sound like without a single mention of gear?  Yep, it’s an interview…  for the ladies. We gabbed with our pal about creative inspiration, the perils of fandom, his new album Galaktikon, and how to unbreak twins’ hearts. Warning: this podcast is rife with giggles.

Metalocalypse season 4 premieres 4/29 at 12:15am on [adult swim].

Hm… for our Bonus Episode this week, how’s about we link to a free download of “On My Way” off the album.  Yeah, let’s do that…

And as for us twins…

4/26 – The Slap Booth *Chaud* at Billy’s Fish Fry at Wacko!

Actor/writer/lovely human being Pat Healy joins us for a heartfelt discussion about horrible times, greater successes and his exquisite taste in film.  

[See image gallery at www.deuxfilles.net]

You’ve already seen him in Magnolia, Ghost World, and ninety-eight other TV shows and movies; you will be seeing him in The Innkeepers and the controversial, 100% “tomato” Compliance.

Until then, you may follow him on Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr.  Go ahead, he’s a sweetie.

You may also see him LIVE!

Oh! And while you’re at it, watch his short film Mullitt! Okay, that’s it.  Enjoy the ‘cast.

We’ve hearted Mike O’Connell for his hilarious tunes (which you’ve no doubt heard on Funny Or Die, Jimmy Kimmel and live-on-stage). But we were delighted to find he’s also a purveyor of  songs to make you sad. The perfect guest for our Valentine’s show talks private language, (good) poetry, and the intricacies of alter egos. Please try to not fall in love with him too much.

Visit www.mikeoconnell.net

Watch videos for Asian Babies and What’s It Gonna Be?

Purchase his volume of odes entitled Impractical Pocket Poesy here!

And finally, something we barely touched on… Mike’s painfully pretty, unrelentingly insane, and ultimately touching film The Living Wake – screening now on Hulu.

And as for us twins, we’ll see you at Lucha VaVOOM February 14th & 15th, which will look a little like this. Our Valentine’s to you?  Bonus Track 008.

Suki Tawdry’s “Valentine’s Day.” Enjoy.

Hilarious and delightful writey-actor Brandon Johnson (NTSF:SD:SUV’s Alphonse, if you mistakenly think you don’t know him) stops by for a chat and a half about Virgoing, his crafty lair, and his questionable past (hint: braids).

Watch NTSF:SD:SUV Thursday nights at 12:15AM!

And  Whoreders on FunnyOrDie.com!

And watch him marry some fools at Lucha VaVOOM February 14th! (Or simply enjoy the show on the 15th and 16th.)

Chris Gore (yes, That Chris Gore) – host of G4TV’s DVDuesday, founder of Film Threat, and creator of his own podcast, PodCRASH – stopped by to discuss our mutual passions of portmanteaux, the film “Viva”, and many other amazing things.

Check out his PodCRASH and (one of many) Twitter accounts!

It’s Twenty-Twelve y’all, and the world is ending; this jingle’ll help you through it.  

Happy Pou Year!
