This is the 50th episode!! It's a special episode as Bob and comedian buddy Reed Becker watch and comment on the 1985 classic film Gymkata . Gymkata stars 1984 Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Thomas. It is one of the worst yet greatest movies ever. Directed by the guy who directed Enter The Dragon Robert Clouse has the distinction of directing the best and worst Kung Fu movies ever. Bob's incredibly worthless film knowledge is put on display as he knows things about every 3rd rate actor in this film....
From my efficiency apartment I talk my Thanksgiving weekend at Cap City Comedy Club in Austin, I share jokes from my performance at the 610am Roast of Rich Lord, NFL Week 13, and all the movies i've seen like the new Red Dawn (with the formerly fat kid from Drake & Josh), Wreck It Ralph, and Skyfall.
A bad interview I did with a comedian a few months ago. He didn't want me to post it so I edited out any time his name is spoken. I also decided to do commentary like when you watch the directors commentary on a DVD. I'm getting over the flu so my voice sounds even crappier in the commentary. I think you'll enjoy it. Try and figure out who the guest is and leave a comment on the website or iTunes.
