Podcast appearances and mentions of brent friedman

Reel Big Fish was one of the biggest ska-punk bands in the late 90s. Their success was launched by the success of their single "Sell Out." In 1997, the song started to explode while Reel Big Fish was on tour as the opening act for Let's Go Bowling and The Cherry Poppin' Daddies. Midway through the tour, they were promoted to headliner. To this day, Scott still feels weird and kind of guilty about it. But there have been a lot more weird moments during Reel Big Fish's career, which Scott shares with us. Like the time they opened for KISS at an amphitheater, then immediately left the venue to open for Skankin' Pickle in a small Inland Empire club. We also talk about how strange it was for Reel Big Fish to travel all over the world. (He includes a particularly funny story from their trip to Russia). Not to mention the time their tour bus blew up--they were almost inside when it happened. Plus Scott talks to us about interviewing random people in Times Square about ska for the documentary Pick It Up - Ska In The 90s. We also talk about his acting roles in the We Are The Union music videos for "You're Dead / Vampire Ska" and "Make It Easy." (And what it was like to kill Brent Friedman on camera!) We also discuss what it was like to recently meet The Slackers' frontman Vic Ruggiero for the first time, the influence of Fishbone on the Reel Big Fish, making a cameo in the film BASEketball (by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone) and how Aaron Barrett and Scott's funny on-stage banter started as something antagonistic between them. Plus we dig deep into the fantastic record Cheer Up and learn a lot about "Drunk Again" and "Average Man," two songs Scott wrote. And Crumbl Cookies. We definitely talk about Crumbl Cookies.

You probably know our next guest for playing keyboards with Catbite. But Esteban Flores has played with a ton of ska bands, (live or just recording on some tracks). We're talking somewhere in the range of 80 groups! The point is that Esteban is THEE keyboardist of ska, so he needed his own episode. We talk about the many bands he's played with like Matamoska, The Steady 45's, The Bandulus, Mr. Kingpin, The English Beat, We Are The Union and The Interrupters, and how he played in 8 separate bands one year at Supernova. We also talk about one particular band he wishes he could play with, Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra (His all-time favorite ska band). Esteban then gives us a lesson on how to play traditional ska/reggae on the keys and even explains what "the bubble" is. Esteban also tells us why he thinks the East LA ska scene is the best in the US. We talk about the time he (and this scene) were featured on a Fox News 11 segment, and we talk about the Ska Wars festival that is a major part of this scene. Esteban also gives us his top 4 craziest tour stories (Which involve car accidents, breakdowns and theft). And we also talk about his personal history as an immigrant that moved to the US at age 3, and how he benefited from the DACA program as a Dreamer. Plus, Esteban brings up Brent Friedman a few times for no apparent reason! Hey, maybe he's a big fan?  Support the show

If there is one person that may be holding the ska community together, it may be Brent Friedman, who is our guest this week. Brent is known within the greater ska scene for being the drummer for We Are The Union, Skatune Network & Omnigone, but he also works very hard behind the scenes for Bad Time Records, Suicide Machine & Skatune Network among others. Growing up in Huntington Beach, CA, Brent fell in love with the ska scene, and soon became well known as "that ska guy" (much to his chagrin), eventually opting to wear it as a badge of pride and taking it as far as creating his social media handle @pleasetagmeinyourskaposts to solidify the truth that YES, he is in fact THAT SKA GUY! As a true defender of the genre, he has spent a good portion of his adult life affiliated with some of the biggest names in the ska world, and as is laid out in our discussion, he is beyond proud of where ska has gotten during the last few years, and his role in that. We spend some time learning about how he got involved in the various projects that he works with. We dig into the role that "Ska Twitter" plays in keeping things within the scene buzzing, and we reflect a bit on whether or not there is potential 'danger' of ska potentially falling out of favor again (psst... it never went away in the first place, so the answer is NO!). He also provides some artists that you should have on your radar, as well as his 5 desert island albums.

Den i mitt tyckte bästa Lovecraftfilmatiseringen är Dan Obannons The Resurrected. Manusförfattaren till Resurrected, Brent Friedman berättar om sitt samarbete med Dan Obannon samt Brian Yuzna på Necronomicon från 1993.

Hollywood writer and producer, Brent Friedman, hadn't set out to become a big-time writer and producer. His dream was to be an actor until he stepped into acting class on his first day of college and was told to leave and NEVER come back! In that moment, he thought his life was over! He chose to quickly pull himself up and decided to use this experience as a soul-searching opportunity and realized his true passion was in writing. He has spent over 20 years working in Hollywood as a writer and producer and has been involved in many titles such as Afterworld, Woke Up Dead, Startrek: Enterprise, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars: Rebel, Enterprise, Lost City Raiders, the NBC Series - Dark Skies, and many more to include several video game projects such as Command and Conquer 3, Tiberium Wars, Empires and Allies, Adventure World, Halo 4…just to name a few. After several years of working in Hollywood, he decided it was time for a change and chose to move his family to a slower-paced lifestyle in the Pacific Northwest. Upon making this decision he was told if he moved his life would be "effectively over". Brent REFUSED to accept this as a possibility. Since his move, he has worked more and turned down more offers. Brent says, "Do not accept someone else's fears as your own." Because he refused to take on the fears of others and follow his own desires his career has flourished as a writer and he has also taken on an entreprenuership role as the founding partner in Electric Farm Entertainment, a leading transmedia company. Listen in to learn more about Brent's journey and how he created his path to success!

Imagine if everything you thought you knew about modern U.S. history--the Kennedy assassination, bad LCD, the Manson murders--was actually a cover-up of an invasion and ongoing war with aliens. This was the premise of Dark Skies, an NBC series that aired from 1996-97, starring Eric Close and Megan Ward. We sat down to talk with Megan in 2010 for Dark Skies: The Declassified Complete Series box set and learned about the show's creators, Bryce Zabel and Brent Friedman, as well as working with the pilot movie's director, horror icon Tobe Hooper, the impact Sony's Men in Black film had on the series and much, much more!  

John Gauntt sits down with writer and game/movie consultant Brent Friedman and Twitch's Matt McCloskey to talk the art of storytelling in game and film, the future of AI and VR in as it moves into the mainstream, and the evolution of videogame economics.
