EDIT!: http://longmont.stream:8000/radio.mp3 CLICK THE ABOVE LINK TO HEAR A 24/7 STREAM OF LPC THANKS TO FORUMS USER mark immune! Thanks mark! Glad you're immune! Longmont Potion Castle is the handle of this hacker/phreaker/prank caller who started in the 80s. He is still anonymous and releases these tripped out prank call compilations. Its weird stuff and often hilarious. His calm cadence and deliberate manner of speech, and use of vocal effects, almost immediately infuriates everyone he calls. He's prank called such celebrities as Alex Trebek and Kiefer Sutherland. http://www.longmontpotioncastle.com/History.htm - here's the history as described by his official website. Unlike Jerky Boys or Crank Yankers, LPC tends to avoid profanity and gross out humor. It all has a dadaist, psychedelic feel to it. Its probably best you just listen to it and decide for yourself. Here are some gems: LPC tries to get a hotel room: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QBJaTtF7XI LPC calls [as] Gamestop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCqNS3Km5jA LPC tries to deliver Tasmanian Syrup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o72j7DjrEXw Anyway I made this thread to introduce folks to this genuinely weird and hilarious artist. I encourage you to post LPC clips of your own. He's got a ton of material and its mostly all available online. Poohs Packin fucked around with this message at 11:11 on Jun 17, 2022 |

Longmont Potion Castle is a genius. The podcast Reply All did an episode about him: https://gimletmedia.com/shows/reply-all/94hw4a He's #1. He just is. He slays

He's authoritative, but lazy, and it drives people insane.

The absolute funniest ones are when he calls up houses to make noise complaints. "I heard all kinds of commotion coming from up there last night." And people just absolutely flip their poo poo lmao. What makes LPC work where other prank callers fail is that his MO is just to confuse, bewilder, and disorient people rather than just being directly confrontational or stupid.

I love when he calls auto mechanics or other "manly" places of work and opens with something like "Do you stand by your work up there?". They go from 0-10 so fast.

The mundanity of his threats also send people off the rails. "How about I come up there and spin you around a little?" "ID LIKE TO SEE YOU loving TRY YOU COME DOWN HERE ILL KICK YOUR rear end."

"You can swap out the game if the disc is defective" "I'll swap out your teeth". He also gets people into that crazy boomer-rage where they try to sound tough but just stumble through every bit of profanity they know.

I love LPC so much. The guy is absolutely insane. For sure listened to a Firesign Theater record at least once. Anyway, my personal favorite. Something about the way the delay just glitches up the endings of what he's trying to say gets me every time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7k9rn_9-cg
