Episode 367 – Andrew Rea of Binging with Babish on Nate Bargatze – The Tennessee Kid – with Special Guest Chris Marcil

Posted on April 7, 2021 by Jason Klamm

Andrew Rea makes food and you can watch him do so. He’s also a huge comedy lover, including the work of Nate Bargatze, making it the first time a guest has picked a former Comedy on Vinyl guest to discuss. For the second half of the episode, we take a detour as I surprise Andrew with Chris Marcil, writer for Frasier (Andrew’s favorite show) and NewsRadio (my favorite). There’s a lot of Frasier talk and they’re both delightful guests.

You know her from many films with Christopher Guest, to Kids in the Hall, to so much other stuff it’s impossible to name it all. She trained under Del Close, so we talk improv.

Episode 365 – Willie Aron and Marvin Etzioni on Dzigan Et Szumacher

Posted on March 24, 2021 by Jason Klamm

Willie Aron and Marvin Etzioni came together as musicians, but bonded even stronger over a record they had both heard growing up. This was a record that no one else they knew had ever heard of before, until they met one another. The record is entirely in Yiddish, so they walk me through the ins and outs of the sketch “Einstein Weinstein” and how humor has informed their music and lives.

Posted on February 24, 2021 by Jason Klamm

Not even Weird Al knows as much about Weird Al as author and podcaster Nathan Rabin does. He’s written more books on Weird Al than any of us have, and he has many thoughts about In 3-D. This episode is a blast.

Episode 359 – Lily Sullivan on Nichols& May Examine Doctors

Posted on February 10, 2021 by Jason Klamm

Lily Sullivan is one of the funniest improvisers I’ve heard in a long time. For the first time, we’re talking on the show about Nichols & May’s attempt to improvise around a single theme: doctors. There’s also a lot of psychiatrist talk, because of Lily’s great new show, Going Deep.
