When you have your own talk show on IFC, you can get some pretty huge guests from the world of entertainment. This week Scott shows off his showbiz credentials with former Monk writer Tom Sharpling, gay marriage advocate Gary Marshall, and future "Best Book" nominee "Weird Al" Yankovic! If you want to know what it was like to write for Your Show of Shows, or how to behave during a Costco book signing, this is a show to which you should pay careful attention. Scott once again rolls out a new feature with "Who Said It?" but in proper tradition follows it up with a rather rousing round of "Would You Rather?" Like "Weird Al" always says: What's Up Hot Dog!

I think that Scott is a tall dude like Tom.

Post by: Steve of Bloomington on February 07, 2011, 05:31:21 PM: This is a TV type show on IFC now? Or are they referring to another IFC show w/ Aukerman?

That studio looks exactly like I always pictured it.

Aukerman is presenting classic comedy shows like Mr Show and Larry Sanders under the banner of CDR on IFC in small segments, introducing the shows, sometimes (often) with people from the shows like Bob Odenkirk, Judd Apatow, etc.

Thanks. I had heard IFC was turning into the Comedy Nerd channel, which makes me wish I got it...

Post by: AllSussedOut on February 10, 2011, 11:01:47 AM: Did anyone else think that Tom was passively resisting the elements of "Would You Rather" that were fudge-centric?

Post by: buffcoat on February 10, 2011, 05:09:30 PM: I am admiring the unnamed comedian who stayed in character as Garry Marshall for the whole podcast.
