The 10 Best Comedy Bang Bang Episodes

Part celebrity interview show, part improvised chaos, the Comedy Bang Bang podcast is hosted by writer and comedian Scott Aukerman, known for his work on the HBO sketch show Mr. Show with Bob and David. Each week, Scott is joined by guests like Jason Mantzoukas, Thomas Middleditch, and Andy Samberg. While they start off talking about their lives, the show quickly deviates from the usual interview podcast script, bringing out improvised characters and following tangents that will have you laughing out loud.
