Chauncy, Chauncy, Where Did Your Leotard Go? (Armen Weitzman, Paul Rust, Neil Campbell)

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a pre-existing condition and won't be covered by medical insurance. Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang. Ah, yes, thank you to Lots of Crawfish for that catchphrase submission. Unfortunately, not going to stick. Had to take too deep of a breath to get it all out. I guess I could every week maybe take a breath in the middle of it. When the moon hits your eye, like a big pizza pie, that's a pre- No, not going to stick. Thank you so much for your efforts and for your service. Lots of crawfish. Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang for another week. My name is Scott Aukerman. I'm the host of Comedy Bang Bang. We have an exceptional show for you today. We have a couple of movie stars. We have some record industry titans. And we also have a scoundrel coming up a little later on the show. This is, look, if you only listen to one episode of Comedy Bang Bang, I get it. But I'm glad it's this one. we're going to bring on our first guest now I mentioned movie stars what is a movie these days you know what I mean with screens getting smaller and some screens are getting bigger like I went to this IMAX have you heard of this IMAX and it was the screen was big and I was like wait a minute I heard all these screens are getting smaller like we're watching things on our phones or something I came in expecting to watch this on my phone and instead there's a giant screen called IMAX crazy and Avatar was wonderful. But before we get off on too many tangents about, of course, the Avatar universe, we talked about it a few weeks back. Let's bring in these movie stars. First off, I'm going to bring in this gentleman. He's been on the show very many times. I'll count up what timer club he's entering as I say hello to him. Our good buddy Paul Rust is here. Hello, Paul. Hi, Scott. How are you? I'm good. Thanks for having me. And I agree like it's so funny that we live in this day and age where some screens are getting smaller and smaller i mean the smallest they might have ever been in the history of screens but also at the same time there are screens that are getting bigger and bigger it feels almost as if there should be some regulatory committee that you know make screens the exact same size Just choose a median size. Whatever the average of every screen that exists out there right now is. Yeah. Make that the average and then make every screen. So if you have a phone and it's like, say, TV sized and it's in your pocket, that would change fashion forever. Pockets get bigger. Oh, pants get bigger. Pants get bigger, like Jared from Subway style. Yeah. Oh, everybody. Oh, they'd be begging Jared, please, please make more pants like yours so we can wear them to fit our large. Oh, you know, the future scares me. Conversations like this, do they ever scare you when you think about like, oh, where we're headed? Yeah, he's entering the 32 timers club on Comedy Bang Bang. And I believe he is our only guest to ever be on every single year calendar year of Comedy Bang Bang. Is that true? I don't know. but 32 times. What's the secret Disney restaurant that I've never been to? Club 33. Club 33. You're almost there. That's also L'Age du Christ, the age of Christ when he died. I know some of our guests don't believe in that. Well, I heard that Club 33 honors that by when you come in to the Disneyland. It's not in the restaurant where you... No. Huh? I heard in the lobby, you don't see this, but where you eat, There's like a crucifixion. Oh, really? In the lobby of Club 33? And you eat in the lobby? How interesting. What a strange restaurant. But I mean, that's Walt Disney for you. Yep, yep. He was an imagineer. He imagined people eating in the lobby. If he had his way, you know, we'd eat breakfast on our kneecaps at nighttime. That's a good point about Walt Disney. Let's bring in our second guest. he is the co-writer the co-star of a new movie coming out this friday called the napa boys please welcome to the one-timers club armin weitzman hello scott thank you hello armin how are you it's great to see you it's great to see but great to be the here the first the opposite of the opposite of 32 exactly i've always said that um armin you are an old old friend you've never been on the show before but uh you haven't had a lot to promote in the past yes and now you have a huge huge project a movie that you've co-written and you're co-starring in called the napa boys coming out this friday how do you reconcile these two existences um i think that's what we were saying about the great gatsby and i we had a long literary discussion we also do cbb book club right before we come here and uh none of us had ever read it we do it before the recording of every episode and then you usually say book club over here are the guests for the next you know exactly so it's kind of cool that for the first time first time we're doing 10 years of doing the book club before the recording that we stuck around yeah that's true i i just but what's like great about this just what about i just i know you're right i i got a little too attached to this great gatsby yeah opener which was just that like great gatsby i've now re-emerged from the ashes and to make you proud of me. That's right. You, uh, uh, uh, uh, great Gatsby famously in his book, uh, disappeared a few years back and, um, and hasn't spoken to any of his friends in a while. Yeah. And, uh. But I, I recently read it. When you say, like, he returned from the ashes, that's literal too, because the second to last chapter, Gatsby, like, his house starts on fire and then he starts on fire. It's like, oh! And the flames eat his body. Yeah, and then he becomes ashes, and then suddenly magic happens, and he swirls around, and they all reconstitute his body, and he's like an ash monster at the end of the book. Yeah, a sort of ash monster that attacks Hoboken, New Jersey. All right, Paul. Classic Paul Russ comedy. I'm so sorry. This is an emotional time. This is an emotional time. It's great to see you. But it is fun. Let's explain to newish listeners. Well, look, you've never been on the show before. Some people may not even, long-time listeners may not know who you are. But let's go through your biography a little bit. A couple. You grew up here in Los Angeles. Well. You then, you're taking issue with that? That sounds like one of those L.A. types, but I'm. You're not an L.A. type in terms of your personality, but you grew up in L.A. And yes. Yes. And you were the type of person to grow up in L.A. you then went to emerson college not even that yeah you're right well you're right no yeah i met some great friends there and that's what i learned about doing comedy for more than just your you started doing comedy in emerson college you met a certain gentleman named harris whittles and were the rest of the people in your group that you were in in the group with from emerson as well yes yes they were who else uh explained this well now of course there's an original group But the ones maybe I think you're thinking of are Mookie. Mookie Blakelock. And there was also Dave Horowitz. Dave Horowitz, yes. And you guys all started a group called? Well, Hendershaw, although I wasn't part of that name. Okay. Naming. But you were in a group called Hendershaw, and that's how I first got to know all of you. That's right. That's right. You were in a sketch group called Hendershaw. And you would perform out here at shows, at the M-Bar, at the UCB Theater. And that's where I first met all of you guys. And you in particular were close with Harris. Yes, extremely close. You guys were great friends. And in the Hendershot group, you guys worked together a lot, right? Yes. And then we became sort of enmeshed in a sort of a, yeah, like a wife or whatever it's called, a partner. Sure, yeah. You can call it either one, depending on who you're married to. Well, I meant like a work wife. Is that what they say? Oh, okay. Yeah, I just meant, you know what I mean. But I mean like. A work wife, yes. So you had a very tight relationship with Harris. You were, you would write together. You would perform together a lot. Like Bob Zemuda. Like Bob Zemuda. And you co-directed something with Harris as well, right? That's right. What was it called? It was also called The Badger's Promise, but it was... The Badger's Promise, yes. You know, never mind. That's not a funny story. Oh, but that was a separate show that you and Harris did together. The Badger's Promise was a live show. Which I saw at UCB, which is very, very funny. Oh, yeah. I think you were... Yeah. A guest? Yeah. A guest. I was a guest on it, too. Oh, okay. I don't remember that part. And so was Paul. Was this happening also during the live show, Little Don Draper? Was that ever a live show? Little Draper's Date Nights. Little Draper's Date Nights. What exactly was that? That was, you know, our two-off show that was canceled at the UCB Theater. They canceled things? Well, a couple of times because the guest didn't show up. Then we brought an audience member on. But I think she was not old enough to drink. It was someone acting like Little Don Draper? Is that what? I think, yes, in many ways it was sort of me, and the humor would be that I'm not even as smooth as Don Draper. Oh, I see. Okay, great. And people listening to you right now are getting a sense of your personality and way of speech. You have a halting way of speech and a mind that zigs and zags in all sorts of directions. Yes, although I am, yeah. Here's the truth, though, but I'm trying not to, but you're right. But you, what's the most coherent you could talk if you really tried? When they say action. Okay, action. Oh my God. Hey, what's up, guys? Hey, that was pretty good. What's up? How's traffic? The band? The band? The cars? I mean, look, the band and the cars are great. Normal stuff. Normal, normal. Yeah. Normal stuff. So in Hendershaw, you were this group. And then Harris, for those of you who are not longtime Comedy Bang Bang fans, investigate Harris's work. he is no longer with us this in fact is the 10th this is the the 10th anniversary of of him passing away i believe yes yeah um and i think so oh 11 11 oh is it 11 oh okay so this is this is one of those off anniversaries that we don't need to celebrate no no no we really should have gotten it together for the 10th when you think about it but but that's classic harris dude he liked odd numbers he liked odd things he liked odd numbers he liked um he he liked being uh odd a w e d he got even with people who crossed him oh yeah yeah we had a good cop bad cop thing yeah who was good cop i was the bad i was the good i mean he he's he's the bad boy he was a bad boy well he really was the bad boy of american comedy in the years that he was active. We always said that. Yeah, who was against him in the international races of bad boys? Was it Mr. Bean? Yeah, Mr. Bean was representing England. Yeah, I was going to say, or Donald Glover or Mr. Bean. Yeah, and I think ABBA was representing Sweden. They weren't even comedians. They were just, they were musicians, but. Like traffic. Yeah, like traffic. Double meaning. So that's a little bit of background about you, and you. Scott, it's got me curious. do you think with you guys talking about armin's background him growing up here in los angeles we met him because he came through people he met on the east coast and then came to the west coast do you think there's a world where armin would have never even but or if you just stayed in los angeles if you stay and never went to emerson yeah i think our our paths would still cross maybe well maybe i'd even be more successful oh yeah if you would never went to emerson and med harris and everyone you'd be more successful i was very into the magic of movies and then he taught me about comedy and i thought we'd all be like monty python oh yeah yeah i mean movies yeah or before they broke up you know yeah but you you so you really you wanted to make movies before you went to emerson and med harris and he taught you about comedy so what kind of movies did you want to make before you arm and made one i think right in high school didn't you make a feature film sure well there no no this is not this is for the the yeah friends to see uh okay but yeah it's not on imdb but it's close to your heart everyone starts somewhere but yeah no no it's just dreams sort of thing i'm just saying it then yeah not counting how old i actually am or what year it is i'm a young up-and-comer and this is a dream come true and i'm just yes because now you've made a movie You've made a feature film that's being released in theaters. Let's talk about it. It is real. That is true. It is real. It is a real film. Yes, Scott Wayne. They can't take it away from us. Don't you find sometimes with comedians in the comedy world, you know, of course they're lovers of comedy. Sure, comedians, they usually are lovers of comedy. Yeah, but a lot of times they're bigger fans of the cinema. They're movie maniacs sometimes. I don't think so. Really? When Armin has, you know, he went to college. He wasn't necessarily thinking of Chris Hardwick. He was thinking of Federico Fellini. Yeah. Normally that joke structure works better. I know. I thought later, as I was saying Chris Hardwick, I was like, I should have said this second. Chris Pine. Oh, oh, oh. I thought you just meant the order of the names. No, I'm just saying, like, he wasn't thinking of Chris Hardwick. He was thinking of Chris Paulini. Oh, dear. Chris Paulini. Well, let's talk about The Napa Boys. This is a real film. I've seen it. It's coming out in theaters this Friday. This is co-written by yourself and a gentleman named Nick Corey Rossi. Yeah, Corey Rossi. Corey Rossi. And some would say, well, never mind. Yeah, some would say he's the new bad cop, but it was a joke about because the other one's dead, I got a new one. Yeah, I get it. I understand. But of course, that is humor-based, whoever's hearing this. It's humor-based quips that we're doing right here, but there's an element of truth to it. Getting the last name right, too. It's a little like, I've always heard a bit of a debate between Sessy and Sese of Scorsese, right? Yeah. His daughter Sissy, you mean? Isn't it interesting that Sissy Spacek never slayed a Scorsese? I don't know that it's interesting as much as... Slayed? Never shot. Okay, that's what I said. Slayed is not a good S word there. I'll tell you what a good S word is, though. Shit. When I step on one of my kids' toys, yeah, a good S word is shit. Oh, gosh. listen when i met you you didn't even have a kid you were i thought i was just screaming shit for other reasons yeah you weren't stepping on anything you're just screaming shit everywhere you went but these days you do have a kid paul and uh we'll get to you your involvement in this film i do want to get the information of course it is uh uh co-written by the two of you so this he directed this movie this is uh co-written by the two of you it co-stars the two of you paul you are also in this movie you play the antagonist in this movie that's right uh and squirm squirm and what what's the concept of the film do you do you want to say it or do you want me to say it and you agree with oh i kind of that'd be interesting okay i think the concept of the film is it is part four in a in an imaginary series of films um called the napa boys and the the adventures of the Napa boys. It's almost akin to, I think, I think I was reading an interview where the two of you were talking about how it almost as if the movie sideways had gotten a bunch of American Pie direct sequels where the concepts kept getting more diluted and more weird as it went down So this is episode four of The Napa Boys. Yes, that's basically correct. But of course, it's even much more. And anyone else, it's, you know, the part four, you know, A New Hope was part four. that didn't stop you guys from eating it up. That's right. Yeah, so this is, exactly. Star Wars released episode four first and everyone loved it and everyone understood it. And I, look, I understood this film. I wasn't lost. I was like, these are the Napa Boys, obviously. But it's the two of you play the titular Napa Boys and you go off on an adventure to save the winery of a good friend of yours. Yeah, that's very good. Pretty much does it, right? Yeah. So who's in this film? We have the two of you. We have Sarah Ramos. We have Mike Mitchell, one of the Doughboys himself. Oh, yeah. Was that uncomfortable to be on set with the guy who banned you from his show? No, no. He doesn't seem to think that I was banned. And yeah, you know, he was just happy to see me. I think we just had been a while. It had been a while. So we have Mike Mitchell. I should have answered some honestly with that one. We have other people like Ray Wise from Twin Peaks is in this. Yes, that was. Amazing. DJ Qualls. David Wayne. That's right. Oh, yes, that's right. We have Ricky Lindholm. We have Nelson Franklin. He's one of the Napa Boys. We have Beth Dover. So many. Natasha Leggero, Steve Agee. So many alumni of this show. Plus, we have other great people. Ryan Perez is in this. and then we also have cameos from people I don't want to necessarily spoil who are in this and it's just a comedy lovers feast and people who listen to podcasts and know about things like Bug Mane and whatever it is they're going to have a ball watching this is that right? oh yeah I mean I think also it's always been on your shelf this movie's been there since you know I mean this is all things I think you're going to be surprised that it's not just some sort of niche, sort of niche comedy silly. This is also... It's so much more than that. Exactly, yes. It describes the layers of the human condition in such an interesting way, in a deep way, that I think people will really be surprised that you guys were capable of going there. I think so. And I think also we really adopted the ensemble similar to like American Graffiti. Sure, or an Altman type film like Nashville or something like that. But it really reminded me of that type of film when the mavericks of 70s cinema were out there just breaking all the rules. It could be called Napa Boys or it could be called Tapestry. Yes. Or Tap-A-Boys, like Tapas Boys. How about that? Oh, did I say Tapas Boys? You know what? We did. I'm going to write that down. That's good. Do you need a pen? Because I don't see you. And Scott, you mentioned Ray Wise and comedy fans. Yeah. Ray Wise shares the screen with the Comedy World's Mike Hanford. Mike Hanford, yes. But yeah, I'll echo, Scott, what you said. What is this, the Grand Canyon? Oh my God. Well, you're going to edit that out, right? You have to edit that out. But fucking shit, that was funny. Oh my God. Do you mean like this? i should have never said echo around this canyon head you this canyon head left and right always talking about echoes yeah anyway anyway get back to your point if you can remember it uh that uh it wasn't oh uh for for if you are a comedy lover and hey you're listening to this podcast so you are hopefully hopefully uh you'll love this movie you gotta check it out uh armin's not gonna uh you know he's too modest you're too shy and reserved but armin and nick both of them uh have made something really really special uh the two of you uh uh uh i love it i loved working with you it was great it was an honor i think i just yeah i just yeah everybody got a moment to shine and we put uh you know these guys this cast did beautiful things and everyone the great thing was is the cameras were running when they were doing it well that's now you're sometimes you'll make a movie and it'll be like everyone it's magic is happening and then you're like we should turn these cameras on eventually right we were yeah look i'm just saying just in case i die one earnest thought is that we did you know this was from our souls and it was just sort of like Lord of the Rings. We slipped this through the system behind the armies of the... The gatekeepers trying to keep this type of movie out of people's hands. Well, you know, it went to TIFF, the Toronto International Film Festival. Is that what it stands for? Is that what the I is for? Oh, yeah. Okay, so it's not like the I in iMac. No, no, no. Or Igloo. Yeah, exactly. So it went to TIFF, and did it play really well there? um sure i think so i think i'd have no idea yeah yeah yeah and you were there and then uh it got it got picked up by magnolia pictures yes such a who let me watch it on an app as the filmmakers intended with my name right there in the middle of the screen the entire movie that was that tip though too it legitimately confused kuloff because it said starring and then my name came up and she's like you're in this i'm like no this is the watermark that's on it yes we did add request watermarks and the sound is fixed now oh since i saw it not that you but yeah just so you know in your heart it's even better than you okay we did well we did uh uh that that just it's actually good to know because we did think that there were some issues with the sound i just wanted to think we were joking around that was and this must just be special having uh magnolia pictures release it because the board the executive board is all the living actors from magnolia in character William H. Macy. Phil Hoffman. Well, Phil Parma, I guess. Yeah, the WizKid. Philip Seymour. No, Philip. What's his name? Yeah, so there's WizKid. Yeah, WizKid. QuizKid. You could call him QuizKid. Officer Jim Curring. They've only put out the movie Magnolia up till now, so this is only the second movie that they've ever put out. They were like, well, okay, we put out this movie we're all in. Yes. But this one's too good. we gotta put out this one. This is, yeah, well, similar to this moment, I think someone at Magnolia lost a bet and now they're forced to do this. You, so, you're saying you lost a bet and you're forced to do this show? I was being a, as they say, I was humbly that you lost the bet. I understand, I understand, Armin. Can I call you Scott? You can call me Scott, although you were looking at Paul when you said it, so maybe you were asking him. It was too scary. Scotty, Scotty, Scotty. Well, Armin, you're, look, I've known you a long time. I've known you 20 years maybe or when did you come back to? Oh yeah. Oh no, back. Oh yeah. When did Hendershaw come and start doing stuff? Was that? I don't know. 2006. I was going to say 2006. Somewhere around there. So I've known you 20 years. Oh no. It's great to see you putting out something that you made. It's great. Yeah. Yes. And even if we weren't friends, he would like it. Yeah. I mean, obviously. Yeah. Because it's even better than. Even if we were like enemies. Enemies. It probably would heal the divide between us. It's that good. That's what I think. I do think that. And whoever hates the haters. The haters. Look, I know you wanted to take part of the show to talk to your haters. Do you want to go? Is that right now? Do you want to talk about them? I just want to say it's kind of cool to have someone on these things that is holding their breath. Yep. Yep. I love it. That was exactly what you told me you wanted to say to the haters. So I'm so glad you got a chance to do that. Well, I think with Armin's debut here, I think it was rather smashing. I think it was a smash debut. Smashing debut, Armin. Smashing. Guys. Yes, Armin. It was. It was a smashing debut. Now, look, we're coming up on a break. Okay, so. Do you want to say anything else about the film before we take a break? We're coming up on a break. Okay, Ross. Dress for less. i just want rachel we gotta trust for less i just want to say that paul was really he was really great in the film and paul's very good in the film it was uh yes very funny if you had seen him in his neil and paul i don't know if you heard about neil and paul they used to be sort of a duo well they directed the hendershaw show that's correct when you say that you mean you and this other guy neil me and neil yeah but i would call them neil and paul neil and paul yeah they were in a different group um whose name i can't remember what was it again uh chauncey chauncey where your leotard go chauncey yeah a great sketch group it's hard to come up with sketch group names but chauncey chauncey where did your leotard go was a rival not even a rival because that implies that you were against each other but a we had to change it from unitard because we couldn't get the url it should be u-n-i-t-a-r-d god we're having a lot of fun my old friends no this is yeah decades of friendship between us i think we have 80 years of friendship between all of us that's good right just think of this okay if you're listening what if your dream was to be on this podcast you were just a regular joe that's like me like i'm feeling emotional i can't even joke about ross or rachel that's well it's it's hard to talk about Ross or Rachel when you're feeling this emotional, but I'm glad Armin. I'm glad that you're here. I'm glad you have reemerged from wherever you've been and you're putting out shit. You're here. I want to encourage people to see it. Now it's coming to LA this Friday. And then it expands to New York the next Friday. And then it's in even more cities after that, the Friday after that. Correct. That is correct. You know why? Cause when you see it, you're going to want to tell a friend. Exactly. You're going to tell your friend who loves comedy. And it does get better, like the prestige. The second time, you start to realize what actually... Oh, I thought you meant the actual prestige part of the magic trick. Well, I was going to say... Like, oh, finally, this magic trick got better. Well, you see, that is... Magic tricks are actually really bad until the end, right? Well, until you bring it back. So everyone watch this film in L.A., then call all your New York friends, and then all those New York friends, when you see it, when it's there, call all your friends in all these other cities. And we want people to be out there watching the Napa Boys. That's right. Yes. So the Napa Boys, in theaters this Friday. We're going to take a break. Armin, you can stick around, right? Paul, I know you have to go. When we come back, we're going to be talking to some record industry titans. This is exciting. We're going to be right back with more Armin Weitzman. No more Paul Russ. We'll be right back with more Comedy Bang Bang after this. comedy bang bang we're back we have armin weitzman the napa boys in theaters this friday very exciting for fans of uh movies with napa and or boys in the title are there other napa movies that you can think of um like where where if blockbuster video was still around where would you be filed you know what i mean yeah alphabetically near sideways and um i don't well alphabetically oh Oh, did you say alphabetically? I did say alphabetically, but I mean... Let me start that over. Then I would be near the N's. Yeah. What are the... Are there other movies like Napa? I'm trying to think of N.A. Okay. Namaste. Is that a movie? Or Nan... Oh, Nantucket. Is that a movie? No. Nan... Nebraska. Nana? Which was... Is that a movie? Oh, Nebraska. Also directed by... Nebraska would be after you. Yeah. By Robert O'Neill. Alexander... Oh, Alexander Payne. That's right. Yeah. That's right. You're a pain head. Well, sure. Because you're giving me a pain in my ass right now. Of course he's kidding. Enough joking around. Let's get to our next guest. They have been on the show many times. They are record industry titans and also sandwich artists. Please welcome back to the show Barrett and Benny Batchelor, the Bachelor Brothers. We're back. We're back. That's ringing a bell for me. Where do I remember that from? From the Bachelor Brothers, of course. We said it last time. Oh, that's right. That's what we say when we go back someplace, no matter where it is. Even if we don't know people working there. Do you find yourself wanting to go to new places because you get tired of saying we're back all the time? Well, we go into new places so that we could quickly turn around and come back the next day and say our... Yeah, when we go into a new place for the first time, I'm just holding my breath until we can come back the second time to say we're back. Do you hope eventually to go to every single place that exists on Earth so you can then everywhere you go, you say we're back? Exactly. Yeah. I'd like to go there. Twice. Benny, so good to see you, Barrett. Also, great to see you. Thank you. Great to see you, babe. If people haven't heard your— Oh, that's right, babe. Oh, that's right. Yeah, you say babe. That's right. We say babe a lot, babe. If people haven't heard your previous experiences, and when I say that, I mean episodes on this show. Talk about your history a little bit. We're twin brothers. We own a record label, Bachelor Brothers Records. Right. And we only sign the hottest, most wild acts. But a few years ago, and this is an update for you. This isn't part of the lore. This is new. Because I haven't spoken to you in a number of years. Yeah, it's been a rock and roll minute. Exactly. Sure. So it's been a few rock and roll minutes ago. Okay. Here's the problem. Bachelor Brothers Records, we went under. Under, wait, the water, the sea? Under the sea. Well, yeah, we almost went under the sea. That's where it's hotter, under the water. Take it from you. We did go on an ill-fated... Were you in a submersible? Yeah, submersible, yeah. But why was it hillfading? It had a tiny little hole in it and some water got in. We only went one foot under the water, babe. But that's not what you're here to talk about? We went woke and we went broke. No! Yeah. We stopped signing. We stopped signing the wildest, hottest acts. And we started signing all the woke acts. No, not you guys. Like previous bands, like the Kooky Cavemen. I remember they're probably your most popular band. They would dress like cavemen and play instruments that look like both. I mean, just absolutely wild. And you could get away with that sort of stuff 10, 20 years ago. But in this day and age, it's too wild. The public appetite shifted. Oh, forget about the appetite. Talk about the boycotts, the picket line. Talk about them. Come on, Barrett. Talk about them. That's what was doing us in. People outraged. All these people in front of our record building. Your record building. Yeah, that has a sub shop downstairs. It's shaped like a record? With a sub through the middle of it, yeah. Oh, okay. Kind of like the Randy's Donuts. A submarine? Like Spielberg's old restaurant? Dive? At the Century City Mall? Yeah, like Ashton Kutcher's old restaurant. Ketchup. Oh, okay, got it. It was called Ketchup Dive. Oh, okay. so it's sort of like a big double dare obstacle god there was a big bottle of ketchup and you dove into it if you got to the potty we got a french fry into the bottle wow this anyway that's all that passed and who's this guy what you date the double dare host daughter or something they're at they're talking to you armin uh did you date the double dare host daughter or something mark summers i believe is his name well well i'm i i talk i can talk yeah you can yeah please yeah I mean, they're asking you this question, Armin. Did you date Mark Summer's daughter or something? I don't. You're not under oath yet. Fair enough, babe. Fair enough, babe. So the top floor of our building is a recording studio. The bottom floor is a submarine sandwich place. Right, right. So we got the record. No Jared's allowed. Right, okay. And people were picketing the outside of this? People were picketing because our acts were too wild. So we set the public appetite once these new woke acts Yeah So that what we got Fine We signed this band the Clean Plate Club Okay the Clean Plate Club What did they sound like After every song they would finish their plate and show it to the audience and go look, I ate it all. I ate every morsel, even the lima beans. So they started eating before the concert and then they would, or they were eating continuously throughout the concert. The other band members would eat while the singer was singing. and then seems like they would want to be playing to back him up or did everyone take turns take turns take turns when someone does a solo the other ones are munching so and the singer gets you know when there's a drums solo he's so everyone took turns playing so it would be like someone playing the drums that's exactly and then he would stop and then everyone would and then a guitarist would start yeah and then they'd show off their plate and we thought hey this is what the public wants they want these acts that are so woke right they didn't care They didn't like it. They didn't buy their records, babe. No. We went woke, and then, because of that, we went broke. Okay. We had all these woke. Tell them about another woke ass, Benny. We had the pardon me's. The pardon me's. The pardon me's. Okay. A band would come out and go, pardon me's. Hey, Scott, can I try? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Watch this. The pardon me's? Hey, pretty good. So what does that mean? some sort of weird... What? Are you starting to think we're kind of quirky dudes here? I'm just saying. I'm kind of like Scott. Yeah, you can take over as host of this if should ever anything happen to me. What about our woke band, the All-Star, doing your homework without mom asking? Right, so let me guess. The dog ate it? No, they did the homework, babe. That's the problem. They weren't bad boys at all. But then the dog ate it? No, they didn't even own a dog. No, the people who say the dog ate their homework, They did the homework, much like your group. Oh, true. But there was a woke band that really, we had the most passion about. Okay, what band was this? The please and thank you sayers. Okay. Before every song, may we please play you another song? And then people say, yay. Yeah, thank you. And then they go, why, thank you. And then they play the song? And then they finish everything on their plate. They're doing the same stuff as the clean plate club? Yeah, I pissed off the clean plate club. But it was all veggies, baby. all veggies. They were vegan, babe. Broccoli, lima beans, broccoli, cauliflower. Okay. And by the double encore, they're just chomping down carrots. What's a double encore where they're playing two songs at the same time? Isn't that when a word sort of has another meaning? Oh, no, that's a double entendre. So they were doing double entendres. That doesn't sound very woke. It might have flown right over our heads, babe You're very literal guys We're 125 years old You're 125 Well, combined Yes Combined with a couple other people It's 125 Oh, we forgot to mention The biggest part of our lore, Scott Oh, what's that? That when us, we were twin boys When we were born We came out 60, 90 Remember? I do remember this from your previous appearances. Yeah, I just wanted people to remember. I provided Benny with oral pleasure. So we went broke after we went broke. So, I mean, you signed four acts and you went broke. It seems like maybe there wasn't a lot of money in the coffers. And we tried to do a revamp of the kooky cavemen. Oh, what happened to them? Called the conscientious cavemen. Conscientious cavemen. Yeah. And what were they like? They had their hit song, Pterodactyl Adoption. Okay. Where it was all... Adopt, don't shop. Yeah. Pterodactyl. Don't go to a pterodactyl breeder, you know. Was there an issue with people saying like, hey, the cavemen and the dinosaurs weren't on Earth at the same time or anything like that? Yeah, we went on Neil deGrasse Tyson's podcast and he kept hammering us on that. Scolding you? Yeah. God, what a bore. we we said we begged to differ babe well i mean look uh that's terrible yeah it was a low point but now yeah now what's happened how how did the rise how did you much like the great gatsby come rise from the ashes we rose like skywalker babe uh-huh ray so we uh you know what you got to do if you go woke, go broke, you gotta go anti-woke to go anti-woke. Oh, you went the opposite way. What were some of the acts that you signed after that? Thanks for asking. The please and thank you and R-word sayers. That's right. It was the please and thank you sayers that they started saying the R-word. Raspberry. They started blowing raspberries at their audience every show. That's rude. Yes. The most anti-woke thing you can do, babe. Oh, I would hate it if I went to see a band and they just pointed at me and started blowing a raspberry. That would be awful. I would feel so embarrassed and ashamed. I know, people come to the show and they're like, we're ready for you to blow horns, but blow raspberries? No, no, no, no, no, no. But I'm staying because I'm boogieing. Right. I love this song. And those records are selling like hotcakes. Okay, which you do sell in your sandwich shop? Yes, the bread is now all hotcakes. But it also works as a record. And that's selling okay, or is that not so well? Oh, it's selling like records. Oh, it's selling like records. R. Crumb's always in there. These are the only records he collects anymore. Oh, does R. Crumb collect records because his name is Record? Yeah. Record Crumb? Exactly, babe. You always know he came and looked at our records because there's always crumbs all over. Well, I mean, look, he loves records, R. And Crumb's, Sandwich Shop. Yeah. It makes sense that he would be there. I say it with chopped bread and butter. Butter is the crumbs, babe. Uh-huh. I bet if you swept up all the crumbs that were left over from a day, you can make one sandwich out of it. Hey, we sell that for a lot of, what do we call it? Scratchola. Another anti-woke band. I'm sorry? Is that money? Yes, I think so. Okay, got it, got it. All right, another band you were saying? Oh. Benny? The No Tucks Chucks. The No Tucks Chucks. What does this possibly mean? It's a folk group. All right. And they come and they sing with their guitars, but all their shirts are untucked and their names are all Chuck. Okay. Any members from any other of the bands in this one? It's all the members of the Tucks. Oh, I haven't heard of the Tucks. They'd come in with their shirts tucked in so tight. Oh, and they were all named Chuck? I remember their album, Visible Belt. I sort of do remember this. Why didn't they call themselves the Tuck Chucks, since their names are all Chuck? Slip their mind. Subversivity, baby. Okay. And these guys are selling like records, which are selling like hotcakes? Yes. Okay, great. And who else have you signed? The Manosphere. The Manosphere. It's a man who lives inside a clear plastic sphere. Like the bubble boy? Yeah. And if you're wondering how he eats food or where his urine or fecal waste goes, detachable tubes, babe. Detachable tubes. Detachable tubes that hook right up to the clear sphere. Okay, so food goes in. They get replaced when they start to brown. Okay. And we give him the sandwich made of crumbs. Our bread and butter is the crumbs, babe. And he gives you scratchola for it. Now, it is a soundproof sphere, so his record is just silence. We don't know what he sounds like. But it's selling like hotcakes. You call something the manosphere and the Joe Rogan crowd comes a-running. Oh, okay. Have you signed Joe Rogan? Yes. No. We got him to sign an autograph for us. Oh, really? We went to the comedy mothership. How was your experience there? I've never been. We just wanted the autograph. We didn't really pay attention to the show. Oh, okay. Did you rush the stage? Yeah, we got our news radio poster, and he was the final autograph. We've been going through a terminal-like thing. This must have been for over the last 30 years you've been doing this. Yes, exactly. It has been. Wow. Scott, though, you remember the terminal, right? He's trying to get the autograph of every jazz player in this photograph. Of course I remember the terminal. We've been trying to do that with a news radio poster. Benny, Benny, I've seen the terminal. Don't worry. And we've also been living in an airport. How do you do business at your records? It's easy to do anything when you're there with Catherine Zeta-Jones. I spoke it like a true Michael Douglas. Let me inspect your tongue and see if you have the same... All right. Okay, yep. You have the same affliction that he had. That's from Benny, babe. Okay, I don't know about that. So wait, everything is going well then. Oh, yeah. Now that we're anti-woke, we're back on top of the charts. You gotta catch our bands like Dr. Foot and the Hot Fooots. Dr. Foot and the Hot Fooots? No, Dr. Match. Dr. Match and the Hot Fooots. You know their hit song. No, I don't. I'm gonna light a match and put it between your toes. Classic prank. Yeah, anti-woke. That no one wants to have happen to them when they go see a concert. Very anti-woke. That's right. Oh, and this one you're going to love. Yeah. Brayden Bradley. I don't know. What's Brayden Bradley? Not everyone's name describes their gimmick. Oh, okay. What's Brayden Bradley do? He has a song called I Pulled Sister's Pigtails. Oh, and dipped him in ink, I bet. I bet. Oh, I've been over to that kid's house. He's got little ink wells everywhere dumped over. My friend Paul would hate to walk around that house if he stepped on one. and he'd probably say the S word. What? Sloppenheimer? That's right. The Mad Magazine subscribers are one of our bands. I would also think he would be upset seeing Inkwell spill because Paul hates spilling. Okay. I don't know what that means. Oh, it seems like perhaps earlier he might have spilled right before recording began. Oh, yes, of course. I heard through the grapevine, and that grapevine is... He did, yes. Jason Manzuka style spilled, but instead of coffee, it was just water, which I appreciated. Now, there couldn't possibly be any other bands on this list that you're reading from, could there? I think so. I can mention more songs by the Mad Magazine subscribers. Okay, sure. Air Force One. The Da Vinci Coma. Okay, good. The Groan of Interest. and uh timmy mcveigh that's their parody of ella mckay timmy mcveigh timmy mcveigh the guy who what did he do what was his thing he got executed in terra hop indiana all right that wasn't his like main claim well that's how we'll remember him that he was executed by our government right so guys you're back on top don't forget about another band. Oh, okay! Wow! This must be a hot signing. I don't even know about this one. Who's this, Benny? This is The Rude Kids on the Block. Okay. You know, it's all the original members of The New Kids on the Block. We got them reunited. Really? They're changing their name to The Rude Kids and all their songs are getting changed to Rude-based frequencies. Okay, so what? Give me examples. I like it what I'm hearing. Give me examples. Instead of the right stuff. Okay. It's the bright snot. So, like, bright green snot. Imagine Donnie Wahlberg singing that. I mean, look, you guys seem to know what you're doing. Yeah, well, we got you salivating for a reason. Okay. We want you playing these acts on CBBFM, babe. Oh, I thought that you were going to say because you brought sandwiches. Yeah, we did. To help us smooth out the deal. Payola, babe. lubricate the palms, if you will. It's payola granola. So you want to get rid of my salivation in my tongue and you want my palms to be greased with a little bit of, you want me to play these songs. Yes. And, Armand, babe, ever hear of a soundtrack with music from and inspired by a motion picture? That's right. Who does the soundtrack of the Napa Boys? Oh, all kinds. All kinds of people do the soundtrack for the Napa Boys. Well, don't you want a needle drop from Brayden Bradley? Yes. Is it too late to put in a song from Brayden Bradley? Not at all. Not at all. Not at all. Okay, great. Real quick, do you think ever once in history when a soundtrack said music was inspired by the film, that was true? That someone watched the film and said, man, this gives me a great idea for a song. This isn't a B-side from two years ago. No, I'm inspired by Batman Forever, babe. I don't think it ever once was true. Until now. Until now. And so you're going to have, you're going to screen the Napa Boys, Armin, for these artists on Bachelor Brothers Records. Thank you. And they're going to get very inspired and they're going to come up with a soundtrack inspired by the movie. It's like We Are the World. We're going to record it all in one night. Okay. And release it the next day. Would be great. No jokes here. Would be great. No jokes from Marvin. We haven't joked once. No. Well, I haven't joked this entire, for the past 17 years. We should start a political podcast that's done by comedians called No Jokes Here. I think that'd be cool. I think that would be really cool. I would love to hear what comedians think about politics. Okay. Well, guys, this is exciting stuff. Yeah. And although I may not agree with your tactics, I mean, it's obviously working for you. It's in the tunes, though. Mm-hmm. Why were you just hitting your chest? My pacemaker. Oh, no. Are you all right? Yeah, I'm getting shocked right now. Oh, shit. Sometimes I can't tell if it's a health emergency or his impression of McConaughey from the beginning of Wolf of Wall Street. Oh, right. Yeah. No, but it is something with your pacemaker. I think I saw something like this on the pit. I haven't seen it. Are they taking headlines from my life? I think most of the storylines are. Were you ever at Pit Fest? and it got shot up by an active shooter. Are they taking my stories from Pit Fest? Benny's always on the lookout for pits. Oh, really? His biggest fear. We're going to fall into a pit. Keep your eyes on the ground. I say, Barrett, Barrett, hold my hand. I might fall into this pit. Okay. And Barrett's always right there holding me by my back belt loops. It's visible after all. Well guys This is exciting stuff Really? And you think your listeners will agree? No but I think that Let's get those votes best of babe Get the best of Mark this episode down for the best ofs babe Because the Bachelor Brothers are Back That's right We're gonna take a break here Armin you have to go is that right? Yeah no I do Well that's too bad but we'll be right back with more Barrett and Benny Bachelor but we also have a scoundrel is going to be here. What an episode of Comedy Bang Bang. We'll be right back with more CBB after this. Comedy Bang Bang. We're back. The Bachelor brothers are here, Barrett and Benny. And there was a flurry of activity during the break. You were taking phone calls and were you signing people? What was going on? We were catering a wedding this weekend. Oh, really? So with the sandwiches or with records? Both. Sandwiches and records. Swift Kelsey, babe. Okay. Batchelor Brothers Bakery. So you guys are doing the Taylor Swift wedding? Yeah. This is huge. Yeah. Should we have led with that? Yeah, that's way more interesting than all this woke, broke shit that you were talking about. We listed a lot of bands. That's a good point. You probably wouldn have listed as many bands if you talked about Taylor Swift earlier Exactly Yeah Taylor great though She a poet even when you just talking to her like we said what would you like on your cake and she said i seen icing would be nicey wow that's i can hear that in a taylor swift song i said put that in a song taylor really did she she slapped me she oh okay yeah and then i asked travis hey what are what are two small dwellings and then a walk through the woods. And he went, hut, hut, hike. It burned him up so you can't imagine how angry he got. He got so mad. All right, very good. He hired us. He hired you, though. All right, well, let's get to our next guest. What do you say, guys? Yeah. This is exciting. We have a scoundrel on the show. And I can't remember the last time we had a scoundrel on the show. I think you just did two of us. all right guys we can't be we can't be all right but uh let's bring him out here for the first time please welcome frankie forkson how are you hey guys hey frankie how are you welcome honestly the truth yeah the truth the truth is i think you're kind of i think these guys are kind of goofing on you you think wait you think the bachelor brothers are goofing on me i'm telling you i'm sitting here okay first i saw this other guy he leaves he's all depressed he's loving everybody fuck that guy yeah he's depressed and he's loving he was a great movie want to check it out but then These guys, I'm just telling you from what I see, and I want to even quit whatever else I was going to say. They're goofing on you. You think they're goofing on me? I feel like they've treated me with the utmost respect to you, Frankie. I mean, sure, on some level. But on other levels, they're goofing. They're goofing. Because you're so nice. Okay, thank you, Frankie. I have to confess, I don't know anything about you or why you think you should be the arbiter of who's goofing on you. Yeah, Frankie, that is a very serious accusation where we come from. To say that we're goofing? Well, because where I come from, we don't goof. Okay? Where do you come from, Frankie? We don't know anything about you, sir. The streets of Philadelphia. Oh, Bruce Springsteen sang about them. I came here to tell you guys about the whole thing. I dropped forks. I just want to tell you. Wait, wait, wait. I'm sorry. Back up. What are you talking about? Ever since I can remember, I was dropping forks. Wherever I go, they fall behind me or maybe in front of me, and everybody called me Frankie Forks. and that's basically, you know, it seems... That's your origin story? What was your name before that? I'm skipping over because now I'm getting... All right. Well, okay, let's go back. Of course. No, I was born Frankie Forkson. Sorry, I don't know if that was... Oh, so there were other reasons that people called you Frankie Forkson other than just the dropping forks. Oh, sure. I mean, I was going to tell you guys just recently I stopped dropping them, but... You were going to tell us that? Go ahead, go ahead. Well, just this past, like, four days. you stop dropping forks frankie forks and that's everything we know about i know and now i feel bad because i'm just so i'm stuck on this i i watch you out here yeah day in day out what do you do you say hmm sandwiches hmm oh interesting you sort of lead them forward yeah that's sort of the style of of being a host is uh but some of the things they're saying is completely cuckoo they 69 each other they're brothers look Frankie Forks and I gotta admit sometimes when I do this show I can't believe the things that I get our guests to admit to but that's just the comedy bang bang vibe you know we're very comfortable here and people let their guards down and sometimes tell their guards to back off oh my god people all right sorry I got stuck on this yeah but I but I do think that their story where it may be odd and maybe not everyone's cup of tea. It is unique to them. And I appreciate hearing from you. I don't mean nothing about it. You haven't buried a hatchet over these last few years. We've had our past... You guys know Frankie Forkson? Yes. I know these guys. Unfortunately. You, Frankie Forkson, a guy that we know basically that you used to drop forks. Well, yeah, here's the thing. And he's from Philadelphia. Yeah, well, what's cool is that instead of going through all the rigmarole of me dropping forks, lately I've stopped you've just stopped dropping forks every time I hear it it shocks me like a let's say I found a piano in the street sure sure it happens to us all every day several of our artists started that way once you pick it up life changes okay Frankie stops dropping forks let me see what else is in the news water stops being wet yeah I don't think either of these things are happening but you see what I mean Earth stops being dry. Are you kidding with that? Because water is wet. No, I think that's what we're saying, Frankie. Look, here's what we know about you. You're from the streets of Philadelphia. Sure. And you've been dropping forks since you were very little. Since before I can remember. And your Christian name at birth was Frankie Forksen. Yeah. These are the things we know about you, and to have any of these be altered. I'll say one thing. I do sometimes call it Philly. Okay. This is good. This is a new tidbit of info about Frankie Forkson. I like this. Has that caught up? Meh. No. Fair enough. Give us the truth, Frankie. Hit us with the real real. I'm just watching you guys. I kind of like what you guys are about. I take it back. All right. I'm going to over. What do you mean? Hatchet has been buried. Thank you, Gary Paulson. A complete 180 from Frankie Forkson. Well, I feel bad. I love to see. I just want to make sure y'all heard. Yes. Barrett referenced Gary Paulson's The Hatchet, babe. Oh, no, I didn't hear it. Have you picked up this tome recently, Scott? No, I haven't. It's a real page turner. Okay. I mean, that's what you want in a book is like, imagine if you picked up a book and you read the first page and like shut it and was like, okay, I guess that's it. Boy, that wasn't worth the $32.99 I spent to read one page or something. and then someone says, no, no, no, you have to turn the pages. And then a whole world of literature opens up to you. Doesn't it, guys? Oh, I say, me and Barrett say all the time, we got the best passports in the world that can take us anywhere in the universe, our library cards. What the fuck? That's so funny. I literally thought you guys had great passports. No, it's a library card. Wow. Frankie, do you have a library card, you schmoke? What the hell? You don't have to take that from Benny Batchelor. He just called you a smoke. Look, everybody knows. Well, I've been called worse before and called better by few. Here's the thing. You have a tinfoil hat. You put it in the garage. You eat it. Same shit every day. What I'm trying to tell you guys before you get me off track here is that, of course, you read a book page at a time. Are you guys kidding around with this shit? Yeah. I mean, it seems like Frankie Forkson, it seems like you're not a fan of The Bachelor. No, no. I love him. I've known him since I was birthed. Frankie, I got a question for you. I just feel scared. You live in Philadelphia? Not anymore. Oh, but you're used to. Sure. And you call it Philly. Well, yeah. Occasionally, but it hasn't caught on. Was the handyman who worked in your apartment building, by any chance, named Cleveland Heap? tell me why he I don't even know why it's just a famous handyman from a Philadelphia apartment complex H-E-E-P right? I believe so yeah Lady in the Water sort of dramatizes his story oh yeah Frankie you love Lady in the Water we all went to it one arm's bigger than the other yeah guys it sounds like you guys are friends yeah you guys are really good friends you all went to the Lady in the Water together? Oh, yeah. I'm having... Yeah. I love it. Old Lady of the Water. We saw them all. So wait. So the Bachelor Brothers, I should have brought the three of you on at the same time since you're all old friends. Oh, yeah. Are you guys going to appear together on this show from now on together? Exactly. I sure hope so. I like the Calvin Striplets who started off as two people and then they asked a third one to join them. Of course. Yeah. Yeah. I'm a character. Yeah. He's going to run our standards. We're all starting a comic strip where you're the Dave and we're the three chipmunks. Oh, okay. But you see. It's one panel, though. So we got to get all the jokes in one panel. Yeah, stuff all the jokes that would normally be in four panels into one panel. Sure. So it's Dave getting his guts pulled out of his ass by the chipmunks. Also, Dave and the chipmunks are in it, too. okay and we're watching we're watching yeah okay and we like turn to camera and say something fun yeah you kind of turn to camera uh-huh and you go boy this uh new hellraiser movie is certainly something so wait so we're we're violating the copyrights of both alvin and the chipmunks and the Hellraiser franchise. Yeah. I'm in. The next strip, we're still watching the movie. It's the exact same drawing. Wait, it's a movie? Yeah. We're watching this happen on screen now. And we go, wow, the lament configuration really did its trick. Really did its trick. That I don't remember from these films. Ow. What happened, Benny? I just felt something falling. poked my fork. Oh, geez. Wait a minute. You said those days were behind you. Frankie Forksen. Listen, I have a lore myself and that's what it is. You said you hadn't dropped them in four days or so. Wait a minute. Did you mean you haven't dropped them in fork days? Which is only five minutes. It's true. We all know that fork days are five minutes. Oh, God. It's true. Different Shakespeare. I'm at Fork Days. Well, guys, this has been a fascinating segment here. I mean, C-Block really was incredible today with Frankie Forks and hearing all of this stuff. A character could be anything. Yeah, that's what I've always said, too. It doesn't have to be. Exactly. But look, we are running out of time. We only have time for one final feature on the show, and that is, of course, a little something called Plugs. Now you know Open the bag and let the plug's out Open the bag and let the plug's out His name's argument but he's not a Jew Once I smell my pants it's definitely boo I guess now I could be president too But first please tell me what's new with you Open the bag and let the plug's out Open the bag and let the plug's out Oh, yeah.

You're old, old friends. How long have you guys known each other? I mean, obviously, the Bachelor Brothers, you've known each other since you came out of the womb in a 69. But how long have Frankie Forks and... Five? Oh, about seven Forks. Yeah. Seven Forks? Seven Forks ago. Or whatever that was. Seven Fork years, whatever. Seven Napkins ago. Seven Fork years ago?

Bye.
