Listening to some older episodes I passed over at the moment (at 1x speed) and I genuinely think Tom unironically likes the mighty mighty bosstones but just can't admit it.

Hey I discovered the best show a few months ago from Hollywood Handbook and have been going through listening to all the old episodes, and just realized that this thread exists. I'm wondering if anyone knows what the soundbite is that Tom uses for the good @bestshow submissions, where I think it says "everybody out of the tunnel!"

It's Larry David screaming "EVERYBODY OUT OF THE CHUNNEL!" from the episode of Seinfeld where they go see "Chunnel" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUPu70uC8Bk&t=27s

Do you have puppy dogs was from AP Mike appreciation day I think, which was a later day WFMU episode. The "da na na na" is a kid singing Coheed and Cambria to Tom. The last one is Andy Kindler's Pigpen impersonation

We need another AP Mike Appreciation Night, IMO.

I listened to most of that ep with a Co-worker and he seemed to think it was funny but was sort of baffled by the show, then he left and the whole thing turned into pure gold. I wish I had known that was coming.

The band isn't totally my thing but rocks fuckin hard. He also is a frequent guest on The Goddamn Dave Hill Show on WFMU

Hi I'm Dennis was Mike pitching his voicework talents to one of the creators of Venture Bros. - don't think it was A Loko ep but I think it was near Christmas. Also nobody on last night's show reacted to it but Kurt Vile's impression of James Earl Jones in Field of Dreams absolutely killed me

Flip Yr Wig posted:How long before we all get tired of Kazoo Man? I think I have one more call of his left in me. Ha idk what it was but I really feel like he burned up his goodwill on this one. Instead of just being a a delightfully aggressive weirdo, he just came off as aggressive. He didn't play too well with that "you emailed me to help you out in the improv world" bit too well (and if it wasn't a bit, Tom blew up his spot pretty hard)

Kazoo Man is better than most callers. Such is the state of the show.

Okay fine. I'll give him 2 more calls. Then I'm gonna complain.

# ? Jun 2, 2017 01:41 |

I would say that he won't get through any more but I think Mike won't notice it's him or actively wants people like him to get through.

this show has very few openly antagonistic callers compared to the radio days and i think angry tom is good tom

Well what's worse. A Kazoo Man call or Jessica from Ithaca talking about the coincidence of eating chicken while a rap group talks about how eating chicken is bad? In Jessica's defense, at least it was not a call about how her band's show got canceled.

"He takes their money; he'll yell at other Marines, he put the highest ranking on his thing. He made a guy drop and give him 20, he told him 'I'm a General.'" Does anybody know which episode it is where a caller brings up Stolen Valor again and you can hear Mike yelling about it in the background?

Tom could run some sort of call in show for kids and I would be glued to it. Although overall it's better in moderation I think.

So I watched the pilot ep of Budding Prospects and it's making me wonder if Tom actually saw it and didn't want to call the guy who said she was really great in it a creep because it would entail mentioning that the main thing of Clare O'Kane's part is her not having any pants or underwear on or if he has not actually seen it.

IIRC it was a bit of a running gag the previous time she was on and Jon Wurster's character references it at one point.

I don't recall that at all. Was this within the past few months? Because I guess the show came out in March of this year.
