Eric P. Nelson talks to Comedy Bang! Bang!'s Scott Aukerman
Posted June 5th, 2024There's a good chance you've never heard of Comedy Bang! Bang! But if you have, many Hamburgers to you. Also, Heynongman. In its simplest form, host Scott Aukerman interviews a famous guest (actor, comedian, musician, hopefully not an author...) followed up by interviews with less famous, made up guests played by a rotating cast of some of the funniest people in the world. Each show is completely improvised and due to their strict ‘open door policy,’ we never know who might walk through the door, in a good way. The podcast is celebrating it’s 15 year anniversary with the biggest tour ever and host and co-creator of the podcast, Scott Aukerman, accepted my request for an interview and so graciously gave me as much time as I needed to ask a few dumb questions and try to conduct a “professional” interview. I’ve been listening to this podcast for pretty much it’s entire run, so I wanted to ask questions about Dr. Trago’s ‘Creeeepies,’ has he ever been to Darren Matichek’s Bobblehead Museum and Hall of Fame, and how hard is it to communicate with Dr. Sweetchat the Small Talk Robot? I realized early on the interview wasn’t for me, and me only, so I did my best to let Scott explain what Comedy Bang! Bang! is, where it came from and a bit of what to expect at the live show.
