Good thing Mr. Pardo doesn't listen to the show, lest he hear his nickname besmirched by this week's episode. Conscious connection or happy accident? Hm...
Fun episode, in either case. Keep 'em comin'.

"I'm in a new show on HBO, "Bored to Death..."

"But... but... that's Jimmy's nickname!" I know, I felt a little defensive of it.
I liked it when Scott said who the comedians were that called in as characters. Unless it's Paul Gilmartin or someone I know, I can't tell who the people are since I don't live in LA (sadly). If Mr. Aukerman is reading this, may I request the names be said at the end of the show? Thanks.
For the record, since two of you mentioned it...
A few years ago, I was reading a bunch of sitcom pilots and I noticed that almost every script had a wild, unpredictable, foul-mouthed single guy in it and a lot of these characters had wacky names. I started a list of these names; names like Shank, Clipper, Bug and wackiest of all, Bean Dip. One of the names on the list was Shooter.
When I wrote my LA-specific stand-up character, I wanted to play him as a wacky surfer dude-type so I went to that list and chose a name. I recorded the bit for Nine Sweaters and then later learned that Pardo is sometimes known as Shooter (or The Shooter?). An unfortunate coincidence. If I'd known of Jimmy's nickname when I recorded the album, I guess I would have gone with Bean Dip.
Anyway, the character's obviously not meant to be a parody of Pardo who, I understand, kills on the road.
Does this mix up deserve this long an explanation? No. But I like hearing myself type.
Carry on.
I'd watch the heck out of a TV show called "Shooter and Bean Dip"

This show has hit a stride with consistently great episodes. The "would you rather" segment and the Bjork appearance were had me laughing the entire time, and the rest of the episode was good fun.
Keep it up, Scotty!
Oh my god, Bjork. I was crying.
Comedy Death Ray Comics Newsarama interview with Scott Aukerman
Complete with snarky comments from Newsarama's readers.
Listening to this on Radio is a little impractical for me, but I've downloaded podcasts, which I hope helps keep you on air.
Also, put me down as a fan of the fivehead joke.
Hi everyone! Great show today with guests Bob Odenkirk, Andy Dick, and Chelsea Peretti.

Awesome line up Scott. I hate to sound ungrateful but will Paul be on next week to talk about his Lost adventures? I peeked his blog because I was trying to wait until he came onto CDR Radio.
This show is guaranteed wall-to-wall pleasure every week.
So, what's the story? Is it a TV show yet? Any Emmy nominations? Have your own channel? What's the logo for the filmed entertainment division? Who do I have to strap a bomb to so this can happen?
That's a good idea. Maybe we'll talk about how the sales of his paintings are going - as you all know, they go on sale SATURDAY AT MIDNIGHT PST! It'll probably go really well, so we'll have plenty to talk about. http://damoncarltonandapolarbear.com
Thanks for all the compliments everyone! I am having fun doing the show and subscribing to the podcast is the best way to keep it going!
Hilarious show! Good chemistry between everyone, the Would You Rather segment was great! Andy Dick and Bob Odenkirk were hilarious together.
Does anyone else's podcast sound very glitchy? Maybe its because I use Zune?
My download super glitchy too, tons of skips/pops and about 10 minutes of horrible distortion up front.
I'm in.
Yeah, about 17 minutes in, all hell breaks loose- doesn't really resolve itself until Pee Wee's "Surfin' Bird" starts.
