Podcasts about those who can't

Chris Charpentier has been seen on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Those Who Can't on TruTV and has been featured at the prestigious Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal. We talk about his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, his first experience as a warm-up act for a TV pilot, quitting smoking, then we leave on a cliff hanger for next episode on his drug fulled years from 12-16 and then living in a rehab cult from 16-22... Woah. You can find that in part 2 coming soon. Watch this video on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/IoltDLR5M3Q  

In the last 45 minutes of this episode, the boys get loose as hell. Probably the craziest convo they’ve ever had. But before that, they spend 25 minutes having a convo with an incredible dude and comedian that Todd’s been wanting to talk to for some time. The boys interviewed stand-up comedian and actor, Rory Scovel. Rory currently co-hosts The Pen Pals Podcast, he has two stand-up specials on Netflix. Outside of stand-up comedy, Scovel is known for acting in the TruTV show Those Who Can't and in the 2018 movie I Feel Pretty with Amy Schumer, as well as being a writer for The Eric Andre Show. Rory is currently on the Comedians Following Tool Tour with fellow comedians Nick Youssef and Freddy Scott. The tour has them actually following the band Tool and performing comedy shows the night before each Tool concert. Tickets and show information are available at http://www.nottoolband.com/

We started the show with an interview with Ilana Zackon the director of "THE GREAT CANADIAN P-RNO: THE MUSICAL" which will be having its premier at this year's Vancouver Fringe Festival. We then did a shout-out to the Vancouver Soundwalk Collective Archive which will be having a soundwalk this weekend on Sept 1. Then we had another interview with Jill Lockley who is the writer, producer and is acting on the short comedy "Those Who Can't." The show is an absurdist comedy about trying to find a substitute teacher and will be shown at the Fringe this year. We ended the show with a review of "Coriolanus" which is the last show happening at Bard on the Beach this year. We ended the show with a preview of what is coming for the Bard's 2020 season, and a farewell to this amazing summer!

Jerry Minor (SNL, Eastbound and Down, Those Who Can't) joins Colton and Scott to discuss The Rendlesham Forest incident, a band called Death and a million other things... They also bust some sweet freestyles, y'all.

In the 20th freakin' episode the guys welcome comedian Ben Roy to Mike's temporary Eagle Rock bungalow. Ben is the star of the TruTV show "Those Who Can't" and an alarmingly funny comedian. The three dudes touch on soaking and baking, what it takes to let go of bad stuff in life, and there's a lot of God talk. Don't listen to this in public, you're going to ugly laugh.

This week we thought we'd pick the brain of a brand new dad to see what it's like to...be a dad! We know how it feels to be a mom, but we're always curious about the father side of things. Luckily, we were able to have a lively, hilarious and heartfelt conversation from brand new dad, and comedian, and actor and author, Adam Cayton-Holland. You may have seen Adam's brilliant stand up on Comedy Central, or watched him on TruTV's hilarious comedy, Those Who Can't (which he co-created) or maybe you've read his beautiful memoir Tragedy Plus Time, but we bet you've never heard him talk about how much he loves to get boogers out of his son's nose, or that he really, really can't wait to wash baby bottles. Really. Enjoy! As always, we'd love to hear your feedback and thoughts. Email us anytime at pumpanddumpshowATgmail.com, leave a rating or comment on your podcast app, or tell us IRL and come see us at a show! ************** Shayna and Tracey have been friends since the 8th grade – that’s over 25 years. After college, they each moved to separate coasts for a decade. They were reunited when they decided to leave big city life and settle down with their families in Denver, Colorado and Facebook told them their daughters are 3 weeks apart. After several play dates, some more childbirth, some unsuccessful pumping, and the overwhelming nature of mommy community boards, The Pump and Dump Show was born. The show launched in 2012 in a bar in Northwest Denver and quickly grew to a bi-monthly, local staple for new moms to have a night out. In 2014, Shayna and Tracey took The Pump and Dump Show on its first national tour and continue to perform every month to audiences nationwide.

On this week's episode of The Thruline Jay uses Binoculars as a way to get to know Writer/actor/comedian Adam Cayton Holland. Adam created "Those Who Can't" on TruTV and authored the memoir, "Tragedy plus Time". Adam is also an avid bird watcher which made Denver's City Park the perfect place to chat. And from the park to the city Jay goes to sit down with "House of Cards" Michael Kelly. Michael bought binoculars for his kids to watch birds. "In the city" you ask! You'd be surprised. And while binoculars brings us through the interviews they tackle so much more than bird watching. Such a great episode. Please listen, subscribe, rate and review! Learn more about your ad choices.

This week we've got Denver's own Adam Cayton Holland. You may know him from his TV show "Those Who Can't", or maybe Comedy Central, or his recent book "Tragedy Plus Time: A Tragi-Comic Memoir". He's an incredible writer and a really sharp guy. Glad he hasn't quit. @CaytonHolland @jimtews Also, I mention on the podcast, Jason Saenz, a comic pal of mine recently suffered a terrible accident. His spine was injured in a fall, and he's got to endure a long and expensive recovery process. If you are feeling generous, please donate to his GoFundMe. His insurance wasn't going to kick in until January 1st. It's a shame we have to crowdsource medical care like this, but that's where we're at now. Help out if you can, and thank you! https://www.gofundme.com/jason-saenz-recovery-fund-aka-saenz-spinez

Ben Roy is an amazing, spasmodic wonder of a person. A heavily tattooed musician and comedian known for his "spittle-flecked rants" on stage, Roy has been compared to Bill Hicks and Lewis Black. On the show we get into EVERYTHING and the only way to describe it is lovely, but intense.

How and where do the stars and executives of Turner personally consume video? And, does former Harry Potter star, Daniel Radcliffe, like a good mystery or comedy?! For Episode 17 of Insider InSites, E.B. Moss, Managing Editor of MediaVillage, was on the arrivals carpet for the Turner Upfront and spoke to everyone from Turner Chairman/CEO, John Martin, to The Last O.G. co-star, Tiffany Haddish.  The transcript below has been edited for clarity and length.  E.B. Moss: Tiffany Haddish, Twitter or Instagram? Tiffany Haddish: Instagram. Because a picture says 1,000 words and Twitter only says 145! Moss: Bobcat Goldthwait, how do you consume video?   Bobcat Goldthwait: I stream it at home. It’s all Apple TV and stuff like that. ...and I got the Turner App. I actually have it installed in the back of my neck. I'm a company boy. Moss: Who would you most like to road trip with from Turner? Goldthwait: Oh, I would. You know, it's the Those Who Can't cast. They're hilarious and I'd love to hang out with them. Moss: And, Twitter or Instagram? Goldthwait: Oh, Grandpa’s on Instagram. I got off of Twitter; it gave me anxiety. Turner’s Chairman and CEO, John Martin, shared the corporate vision Moss: John, with people using so many screens these days how do you break through? John Martin: That’s the question at the center of everything: What we need to do - and the future of successful media companies - is going to be about creating brands and franchises that can cut through the clutter and engage with consumers in an emotional way. We're calling it “fandom”, so everything we're doing now at Turner is about making fans... where they come and spend engaged time with us and lean in. Moss: There’s a lot of talent here. Shaq, Hamish Linklater, Niecey Nash, Denis Leary.... Who would you most like to road trip with? Martin: I’d take Anderson [Cooper] and Shaq together. Daniel Radcliffe, currently co-starring in comedy Miracle Workers,  shared some audio – and TV - favorites: Moss: Daniel you said you consume a lot of podcasts. Any favorites? Daniel Radcliffe: Anything Dan Cohen does or Mike Duncan; I like all the History guys. There’s How I Built This, On the Media, Start Making Sense.... CaseFile: True Crime – a lot of true crime ones. I'm one of those people who is obsessed with all that stuff. Moss: And how do you consume video? Radcliffe: I mostly like Netflix and documentary series on TV. I'm very bad at watching proper series. Moss: And favorite Turner star here today?...  Radcliffe: Samantha Bee!... wait, is she here?! Who Turner executives would most like to hang out with was a little surprising. Here’s Ad Sales President, Donna Speciale, and President of Turner, David Levy: Moss: Donna, who would you most love to road trip with? Donna Speciale: I am a huge fan of The Impractical Jokers. How much fun would it be to be on the road with them, with all the tricks they’re doing?   Moss: On the serious side, with all that competition for the audience attention, what does it take for programming to break through ...and benefit advertisers? Speciale: The content has to be compelling, but I also think the advertiser has to think a little bit more about their messaging and the storytelling. We've also been trying to reduce the clutter on the linear screen to make that experience that much better. Moss: David Levy there are a lot of celebs here, and a lot are fans of Samantha Bee!... David Levy: When we brought Samantha Bee to Turner almost three years ago no one knew what was going to happen in this country and how powerful her message would be right now, and the influence she'd have on men and women across this country. Moss: What are some of the other shows that you're excited about? Levy: Well, I love all my children -- from Detour and Wrecked, and Conan [O’Brien], and Claws, Animal Kingdom... and 80 percent of our shows have been renewed. We’re focusing on fandom because fans tell other fans about great shows and that's what makes them so successful - not just on TV, but across platforms. Moss: Of all your children, who would you most like to road trip with? Levy: I think [Daveed] Diggs from Snowpiercer! Documentary filmmaker Michael Moore lived up to his reputation as a consumer evangelist... And the witty correspondents for Full Frontal with Samantha Bee rounded things out: Moss: Michael Moore, how do you consume your favorite content? Michael Moore: I have to stream and pay extra if I want to see The Handmaid's Tale or The Good Fight or The Looming Tower.  I feel bad that the public has to pay extra and extra to see this stuff. ... where's the breaking point for the average working person? Moss: So what do you think the future of media is?   Moore: We're in middle of an immense transition, and the public will decide what it wants. 15 years ago people were saying 'Everybody will be reading books digitally.' Ten years later 25% of books were sold digitally, so books didn't go away. People are also still going the movie theater no matter what devices we have, because they want the big room and a huge screen with a couple of hundred people. Moss: Full Frontal with Samantha Bee correspondents Allana Harkin and Amy Hoggart and Executive Producer Miles Khan, Twitter or Instagram? Amy Hoggart: Twitter. I felt guilty on Instagram - like I'm just looking at pretty things. But Twitter, you learn things... you actually are consuming interesting information. Allana Harkin: I would say Twitter If I'm in a bad mood and Instagram if I'm in a really good mood. Moss: Finally, who would you most like to road trip with? Harkin: 100% Anthony Bourdain! But he can't smoke in the car. Kahn: I want to go with Rick from Rick and Morty because then we can go to another dimension and go on adventures together.

You asked for it, and here it is. Tyler's traveling this week and Anthony's -- I dunno -- probably doing something, too. So no regular PDP for the final week of August. HOWEVA, for the first (and probably only) time, we're bringing you a throwback edition of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast with one of our most sought-after interviews.Back in the early days of the PDP, the world of podcasts was the Wild West. Our fancy new intro music hadn't been discovered yet, and you used to have to walk the podcast to the podcast station to be uploaded onto iTunes -- uphill, both ways, in the snow. It was in that unforgiving era that we came upon Adam Cayton-Holland, favorite son of Denver and perhaps the greatest Rockies fan you know. In March of 2014, when this interview was recorded for our second episode (the first we ever did on the PDP, by the way), Adam had just found out that he'd be throwing out a first pitch at a Rockies game in April, the culmination of a social media campaign united under the banner of #ACHFirstPitch. Since then, Adam has gone on to create and star in "Those Who Can't" on TruTV, one of last year's brightest comedy debuts that returns for its second season in October, as well as continue building himself as one of the top rising stars in comedy. We love Adam. Adam loves the Rockies. You should love Adam, too. He's cooler than all of us combined.So for those of you wishing you had a way to hear this episode: here it is. You're welcome.

"I had one goal when I started playing music, was to get in a band and play A show. Yeah. So everything else is just....gravy" This episode is why I love doing this podcast. I invited members of local punk rock band, SPELLS on the show. What I knew of SPELLS was very little. I knew that they a) put on extremely fun shows where they set up on the floor and get the crowd involved and b) comedian Ben Roy is their frontman. That was it. That's all I knew. Within minutes of Chuck and Rob sitting down (oh by the way, I had Chuck and Rob from SPELLS on this week), I found out that I was about to talk to 2 guys with a combined 35 years of being entrenched in the Denver music scene. What a wonderful surprise! Peeling back the onion of Colorado music has become a personal love of mine and these two gentlemen helped me to expose so many layers. Listen above as Chuck and Rob each chronicle their extensive histories in our city's great punk scene. We cover everything from learning to drum on pillows, running music labels, finding safe haven in live music, to the average lifespan of a Denver band, the creation of SPELLS, band uniforms, and how Ben's recent success with Those Who Can't has (or has not) affected how they work. This was a fun one for sure. The song for this episode is called .Jet Set and is available for download via Bandcamp.

This episode was graciously sponsored by Renegade Brewing Company! Visit their taproom on 9th and Santa Fe or pick up their wonderful assortment of beer at any local liquor store.

How Comedy Works with Wende and Rick is a weekly podcast hosted by Wende Curtis, owner/CEO of Comedy Works Denver, and veteran comic/writer Rick Kerns. Tune in every Tuesday as Rick and Wende share stories and offer advice to knowledge-hungry young comics.   In this episode Wende and Rick discuss the Political Correctness movement and its effect on the comedy scene in Denver and nationally. We also have great comics Rory Scovel, cast member on the hit sitcom "Those Who Can't" on TruTV, and Clayton English, season 9 winner of Last Comic Standing, give their views on PC culture.

Take some time this week to remember your original happy hour: Saturday mornings as a kid, waking up at dawn, jumping on the couch with a bowl of chocolate cereal, turning on the ‘toons, tuning out the outside world, and working your way into a sugar hangover before noon. This week we give special attention to the special-est nerd clique in high school (which none of us admit to being part of) -- the theater geeks and PAC rats! Grim and Marke wax nostalgic about our time backstage and explore why this is the last nerd herd to get its due in pop culture (Glee, anyone?). We talk to Broadway star Chantel Riley (currently playing Nala in The Lion King and co-starring in the upcoming Jesse Owens biopic Race) plus Adam Cayton-Holland, Ben Roy, and Andrew Ovredahl of truTV's new series Those Who Can't (they also happen to be the stage performance trio known as Grawlix, so they know a bit about theater). We also cover Amazon Prime's new series Mad Dogs and Grim desperately plugs an 8-year-old movie forgotten by the public called Hamlet 2. It's good, it really is! House lights down and curtain up!

Chris Fairbanks, Carrie Poppy, Nadia Kamil and Adrian Poynton join host, Dave Holmes for a New Year's episode featuring horrific YouTube videos, a defence of eyebrows and celebrity encounters. Links: Chris Fairbanks wants to plug his new TruTV showAlmost Genius and recommends Ben Roy's performance in the TruTV show, Those Who Can't. Carrie Poppy wants to plug her MaxFun podcast Oh No Ross and Carrie! and recommends the UCB Theatre show Cool Shit / Weird Shit. Nadia Kamil wants to plug the movie she just shot, Buzzard Hollow Beef and recommends the Say Something In Welsh podcast. Adrian Poynton recommends the Australian sitcom Please Like Me. And finally, Dave Holmes is on Twitter @DaveHolmes and hosts his live quiz show, The Friday Forty at LA’s Nerdist Theatre on the second Friday of every month. Dave recommends the novel City on Fire by Garth Risk Hallberg. You can let us know what you think of International Waters and suggest guests through our Facebook group or on Twitter.

Ben Roy (truTV's "Those Who Can't") joins Dan and Tom to talk about growing up in Maine, riding the substance abuse roller coaster in Denver, and surviving it all.

And so it has come to this. I'll be taking the summer off of podcasting to focus full time on the production of Those Who Can't. But fear not! New episodes will resume in August/September of 2015. So come back around! In the meantime, have the best summer ever and KIT!

This week Empty Girlfriend brings you another compilation of our favorite segment Obscure Sexual Fantasies. On this episode we feature Steve Agyei (Comedy Works), Harper Phillips, Mike Marchant, Sam Tallent (Fine Gentleman's Club) and Ben Roy (Grawlix, Montreal JFL, Those Who Can't). Enjoy the sexy weird fun!

Episode Number Fifty! For this special anniversary episode I sit down with my co-horts in The Grawlix Andrew Orvedahl and Ben Roy to talk Those Who Can't, our favorite Grawlix memories, and what habits we have that annoy the bejesus out of one another.

Well hey there, kids! Look who stopped by to say hello! It's Rory Scovel! You know Rory? He brought a fancy piano-man to Conan and yelled! He also played the principal on Those Who Can't, Adam's (and Andrew Orvedahl and Ben Roy's) sitcom pilot thingee. He's a Southern gentleman and he's real nice and he knows Jack White personally! Listen as these two beardos talk about life, liberty and the persuit of doing the best comedic German accent on stage.

Back to back brother episodes? Really? Yeah, really. That's how we roll at MDRT. Evan and Adam Nix are two of the finest filmmakers around. They make The Grawlix web series with your boy ACH et al, and they filmed the pilot for Those Who Can't. So if you're looking for some kick-ass guerilla filmmakers in the muthaheffin Denver mist who moonlight as a fake German electro band, look no further.

This week Adam and Ramsey welcome Denver's own Adam Cayton-Holland (Conan, "Those Who Can't") to talk about "mob." You'll hear all about adventures in protesting as children, flash pillow fights, and more as three guys try not to sound like the dumb one in the conversation.

MTV's Nikki Glaser is a good pal of ACH's. She appeared in the pilot for Those Who Can't as his love interest, and funnily enough, love is one of their shared interests! Or at least love disgused as lust for stand-up comedians. Join Nikki and Adam as they discuss the wonderful world of makin' it, in every sense of the word.

In this episode: WTF's up with Amazon not picking the homegrown comedy sitcom Those Who Can't for a full series? Did KHOW talker Peter Boyles assault his longtime radio producer with a vicious lanyard yanking? Why does 7-11 want the drinking proletariat to "Free Our Beer" from the evil craft beer cartel?
