Today we have “don't say gay,” but in the late 1980s the British coined the expression “no promo homo” for Section 28, a law that restricted discussion of LGBTQ issues — even beyond the classroom! The 15-year struggle to bring it down ended on September 18, 2003. Actor JM J (Jim) Bullock talks about life as the voice of “Queer Duck.” And in NewsWrap: Canada's Conservative Party pledges to ban pediatric transgender healthcare if they regain control of the federal government, hundreds march in Belgrade Pride despite Serbian church and government opposition, Andorra's Prime Minister Xavier Espot Zamora says he's never been in the closet, California's Democratic Party-controlled legislature votes to penalize school boards for banning books, a U.S. federal judge allows enforcement of Florida's adult gender-affirming healthcare ban, a U.S. judge in Texas extends a hold on a drag show ban, seven are arrested at a sit-in for PEPFAR while U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy remains silent, and more international LGBTQ news reported this week by Michael LeBeau and Tanya Kane-Parry (produced by Brian DeShazor).

His family moved to Timmins, Ontario, soon after he was born. LaMarche's childhood was filled with his "own little world of cartoons and sixties television". It was in his second year of high school that he learned of the popularity his talent for mimicry could garner him. This realization came from a coincidental performance in a high school "variety night" when a couple of friends urged him to enter. The act he performed at the variety night was "celebrities as waiters" which he used until the end of his stand-up career. It took a few years after his 1981 move to Los Angeles for LaMarche to establish himself in the American voiceover industry, which he initially pursued as a side endeavor during his full-time standup comedy career. LaMarche began on Inspector Gadget with that show's second season in 1985, and went on to Dennis the Menace, Popeye and Son and The Real Ghostbusters where he played Egon Spengler. After The Real Ghostbusters, LaMarche became a regular mainstay of the voiceover industry, appearing in such shows as Tiny Toon Adventures, GI Joe, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: The Animated Series, Taz-Mania, Where's Waldo, The Little Mermaid, Batman: The Animated Series, and Bonkers before landing perhaps his most recognized role in 1993 as The Brain on Animaniacs and later its spin-off show Pinky and the Brain. Following this, LaMarche worked on The Critic, Freakazoid!, and The Tick before then reprising his role of Egon in Extreme Ghostbusters. The stretch of two years after this saw LaMarche portray characters in such shows as Hey Arnold! as Big Bob Pataki, Queer Duck, and The Chimp Channel. During this time LaMarche would become the voice actor for Mortimer Mouse whom he would voice in the television series Mickey Mouse Works and Disney's House of Mouse. It was at this time, 1999, that LaMarche began work on Futurama, and since Futurama, he has continued to work steadily in television, including guest roles on The Simpsons (where he once again parodied Orson Welles). His most recent regular role came as Hovis the butler on the Nickelodeon series Catscratch. LaMarche was the voice of antagonist Father in Codename: Kids Next Door and was also the voice of Victor in Playhouse Disney's Handy Manny 2007 Halloween episode. LaMarche has done various voice work for many Warner Bros. Animation and DiC Entertainment cartoons. He also delivered the protracted belches for the "Great Wakkorotti" shorts on Animaniacs, in which Wakko Warner performed various pieces of music. In 2011, LaMarche reprised his role as Yosemite Sam in Cartoon Network's new series, The Looney Tunes Show, and its spin-off, New Looney Tunes. Find out more at https://still-toking-with.pinecast.co

Mike Reiss joins us on the latest episode of Round Springfield! He talks about his first big Hollywood gig working on "Airplane II: The Sequel." We also chat about punching up animated kids films like "The Lorax," "Ice Age," and "Despicable Me." Plus, he'll talk about the show he's most proud of you might not have seen – "Queer Duck." And what was the deal with "Teen Angel" on ABC's TGIF? This episode was recorded remotely during quarantine. You might notice differing audio quality from previous episodes – but we're trying to make it work for you! Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy.
Conversation #169, recorded on July 24, 2018. We're talking with comedy writer Mike Reiss, one of the original writers behind THE SIMPSONS. Along the way, he's written for the Harvard Lampoon, Johnny Carson, created the beloved Lovitz vehicle THE CRITIC and the cult hit QUEER DUCK, and more. He's penned children's books, plays and most recently SPRINGFIELD CONFIDENTIAL: JOKES, SECRETS AND OUTRIGHT LIES FROM A LIFETIME WRITING FOR THE SIMPSONS. Hail Satire! is hosted and produced by Vic Shuttee.
Mike Reiss has won four Emmys and a Peabody Award during his twenty-eight years writing for “The Simpsons”. He ran the show in Season 4, which Entertainment Weekly called “the greatest season of the greatest show in history.” Mike co-created the animated series “The Critic” and created Showtime’s hit cartoon “Queer Duck” (about a gay duck). In 2006, he received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Animation Writers Caucus. Mike has been a contributing writer to more than two dozen animated films — including four ICE AGEs, two DESPICABLE MEs, THE LORAX, RIO, KUNG FU PANDA 3, and THE SIMPSONS MOVIE – with a worldwide gross of $14 billion. He has been happily married for thirty years. Like most children’s book authors, he has no children. The post The Simpsons and Springfield Confidential – Ep 41 with Mike Reiss appeared first on Read Learn Live Podcast.
Virgil and Matt sit down with longtime Simpsons writer Mike Reiss to discuss his new book "Springfield Confidential: Jokes, Secrets and Outright Lies From a Lifetime of Writing For The Simpsons". Also the co-creator of The Critic and creator of Queer Duck, Mike has written for the Simpsons off and on since its creation, and with him we talk about our favorite family, Thomas Edison's cinema-busting goon squad, the traitor Leon Trotsky's whereabouts, and Star Trek cast members' thoughts on trains.

I catch up with Mike Reiss from The Simpsons, whose new book, Springfield Confidential, comes out June 12. We touch upon more than just The Simpsons. Mike was a writer on Airplane II, The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, ALF, Sledge Hammer! and It’s Garry Shandling’s Show. Mike and his writing partner, Al Jean, were show runners of quite arguably the best seasons of The Simpsons, seasons three and four. Mike talks about the memorable Michael Jackson and baseball episodes. We touch upon The Critic and Queer Duck as well.
In the first episode, Kathi and Terri talk about the word ‘queer’ – how the Q in LGBTQ can both divide and unite. We discuss Queer Nation, Queer Eye and Queer Duck all as we sip on a Queensbury.
In this episode, we sit down with writer Mike Reiss (The Simpsons, The Critic, It’s Garry Shandling’s Show, Queer Duck) to talk about his life and his Christmas special, How Murray Saved Christmas. We also welcome back special guest Parker Denton to the show. In our sprawling conversation, Mike remembers Garry Shandling, talks about his time writing for the Harvard Lampoon and reveals a hot Simpsons tip about just how far Homer and Flanders might have gone that night in Vegas. Mike also gives his hot tips on how to get fired from The Simpsons and shines a light on the mysterious children’s book industry before discussing How Murray Saved Christmas and just who he would m/f/k. We love you!
Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Jim J. Bullock, Renowned Stage, Screen & TV Actor, Star, “Too Close For Comfort”About Harvey's guest:Today's guest, Jim J. Bullock, is a highly popular actor who is perhaps best remembered for his portrayal of the goofy but hunky geek “Monroe Ficus” on the hit TV sitcom “Too Close For Comfort”, and as the narcoleptic “Prince Valium” in the classic Mel Brooks movie “Spaceballs”.

On the big screen, you've seen him in many movies including “Switch”, “Get Your Stuff”, “Kissing Jessica Stein”, “10 Attitudes”, “Circuit”, “Role/Play”, and “Ron and Laura Take Back America”, for which he and his fellow cast members won an Idyllwild International Film Festival Award for Best Ensemble Cast. And on television, besides “Too Close for Comfort”, he's appeared in dozens of shows including “ALF”, “Seinfeld”, “Roseanne”, “The Bold and the Beautiful”, “Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide”, “Glee” and many more great shows. He also co-hosted “The Jim J. and Tammy Faye Show” with Tammy Faye Bakker. And of course, he was very entertaining on game shows like “Battlestars”, “The New Hollywood Squares”, “Match Game”, “Body Language” and “I've Got a Secret”. And on the Broadway stage, our guest starred in “Hairspray” as “Wilbur Turnblad”, a role he also played in the national touring production. AND he also co-starred in the national tour of “Kinky Boots”, playing “George”, the factory manager. And if ALL THAT weren't enough, our guest was also the voice of the lead character, “Adam Seymour Duckstein” in the groundbreaking animated series, “Queer Duck”.
