Episode 269 Video Version– The History of Firesign, Part 5 – I Think We’re All Bozos on This Bus

This episode was a multi-cam failed experiment, where one camera synced perfectly with the audio and the other two decided not to, hence the crazy delay in release.  Still!  Please enjoy the video version of the audio episode originally found here.

Phil Proctor returns to talk about the next Firesign Theatre album with Firesign’s archivist, Taylor Jessen.

Episode 299 – David Kirk Traylor on Firesign Theatre – I Think We’re All Bozos on This Bus

After I rediscovered David’s character Mr. Zed (aka David Zed) on YouTube and then found out we had a mutual friend in Firesign’s Phil Proctor, I had to find out the backstory behind a stand-up character with this kind of longevity.  He picked a Firesign album about AI, and here we are.

Episode 177 – Tommy Edison on Firesign Theatre – Don’t Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers

COV_177_SD

We’re covering Don’t Crush That Dwarf… for the second time in the show’s history, and this time we’re speaking with Tommy Edison, also known as the Blind Film Critic.  Tommy has an infectious sense of humor, so he was a blast to have on the show.  Blind since birth, Tommy’s experience with comedy albums is something we’ve never been able to explore on the show before.  We discuss sound design and voice work in a very pure way, but we also discuss the feel and smell of a record, for the first time on the show.

Episode 95 – Taylor Jessen on The Credibility Gap – Floats


Taylor_JessenThis week, Jason does his usual stellar job of keeping the show on track.  No, seriously, it gets worse.  Why?  Because Taylor Jessen is not only Firesign’s archivist, but he restores comedy vinyl.  All those pops and hisses that can kill a joke or a pause?  Yeah, he can smooth those over and then tweak the cover so it looks like it did the day the original owner bought it in the store.  He does it all out of a desire to get it out there, so as you can imagine I was waiting with bated breath to have him on to nerd out, even if he far out nerds me.  We also talk about a great Credibility Gap album, “Floats,” and the clips I play in the show are from his restored version.
