    P.S.

    Sorry for being so demanding.
    This episode just appeared on my Itunes!

    Doug, That sucks that you were just in KC and I missed the show. I'm stuck in Manhattan Kansas with summer school at K-State. I hope to be seeing the interruptions in LA soon since I just got a job offer in the SD area. Love your stuff in cast and disk format until i can get to the ucb.

    Hey Doug. Not sure if this has been asked yet on some other thread..sorry if this is the case.

    On your album you made reference to writing on stage (lawers who throw down the mic)

    What is your writing process like? Do you wait for inspiration or do you take time out of your day to sit down and write? Or do you tour enough that you can do all your writing on stage?

    YOU STOLE MY QUESTION. Doug please come back to Iowa when I am in school so I can go. If you need to double check and make sure I am there feel free to email me.

    But I really came to ask you about your writing process which I was also beaten on. I've seen your movie (awesome) and you talk about telling jokes that you've made up earlier that day. Do you just use stuff as you think of it? And basically what HeadEgg said. Another thing I learned from watching your movie is that you have a pretty funny job and life and friends. Good going.

    yes, ff, things are pretty good right now. i was did a guest set in the CoC show in san diego last night. boy was that fun. maria, brian, patton, a video from zach - all hilarious. the human giant guys and sarah silverman added to the comedy joyessness.

    anyway ff and headegg (do you have an angry inch?), i write jokes for Best Week Ever every week, jokes for my blog (almost) every day, and jokes for various other projects, some of which ends up in my stage act, but the stand-up is mostly created on stage. i don't have a writing regimen because with interviews and auditions and traveling to gigs, my schedule changes daily, so there is no specific time i could set aside to write regularly.

    (plus i'm lazy!)

    Hey Doug, do you think that you might be bringing Graham Elwood with you to Chicago in December?

    (please say yes)

    Doug,

    On your last podcast you said The Dark Knight was, sight unseen, the best movie of the year. Now that you've seen it (I'm guessing) what did you think of it?

    Also, can't wait to see you and Graham Elwood at Goodnight's on Friday. It's already hilarious, sight unseen.

    Great record, man. God dammit that lawyer bit is excellent. AST Records is killin' it, yo.

    I know this has been said before, and your reasoning against it was perfectly valid, but I'm a douchebag. I can't help myself. If nothing else, this post will prevent the next jerk who didn't see the old thread from saying this:

    For some reason, compared to its first incarnation, I'm really feeling the time constraint on I Love Movies. Part of it is that the past couple have had two guests, I'm sure. And (god help me for saying this) part of the problem might be resolved by a slight reduction in the weed department...

    I just want to sort of cast another vote for a 60 minute show. This last one felt especially rushed. No time for Maltin! It's not only that I selfishly want more hot shit to listen to, I feel like having an hour would be good for the flow. I wanted to hear you and Hardwick go back and forth a little more with Odenkirk.

    I'm guessing you probably agree somewhat, and it's those damned circumstances who are fucking everything up. You need asses in seats. Personally, I'd stick around the UCB all night for those shows. Four hours vs four and a half, what's the difference? But since I don't live in LA who gives a shit what I would do?

    Anyway. I know you're a busy dude, and I'm not complaining, I still love the podcast. Sorry my feedback is so long-winded.

    ps what's your favorite cereal

    I love movies is the most dissapointing podcast ever, but in a good way.

    It's just so damn short! Honestly, when the Odenkirk/Hardwick episode ended, I thought I had sat on my ipod and skipped it ahead 30 minutes. There wasn't even any Maltin Game!!

    As I said, though, it's a compliment. If it sucked, I wouldn't care how long it was.

    Re: The Doug Benson Q and A Threadt!

    thanks, and i'll pledge to not be high for the next show, although i thought, since hardwick and odenkirk weren't stoned, the last one ended up being pretty good. i've got an excellent guest lined up for the next episode. such a good guest that i might not line up another one, and the entire show can be dedicated to whether or not he/she'll be able to walk again.

    Thanks for the answer...try this one on for size

    I've been kicking around my city doing small shows in bars and coffee houses for a little while now. I now feel the need to get going in clubs. Is there a way around bringers? I just don't have the friend power to be able to bring 7-10 people to pay for every show I do for god knows how long. Clubs are a necessity correct?



  19. #39

    Re: The Doug Benson Q and A Threadt!

    correct, clubs are a necessity. avoiding bringers is tough if you aren't ready to actually get paid. what city are we talking about here?

    They aren't taking reservations yet for the taping, but they probably will soon!

    See you there Dougsy! And congrats on another CC special.
