Ben from Santa Clarita II

Post by pinback »

If you liked yesterday's, today will blow your mind, as Ben from Santa Clarita gets his own on-air segment!

(This is edited to remove most of the stuff that doesn't feature BfSC.)

This is funnier than I think you people understand.

These are not set-up, scripted calls. He doesn't know I'm going to call in. Except for today, when we planned me to do the guide. But still, he doesn't know what's going to happen. It's live-wire, unscripted radio, the kind you have to scour the Earth to find these days.

Don't you get how funny this is?

No, I gathered that one out of the two calls were not planned. I'm with you. The part I like best is that the female callers that follow you rip on you... but really, the joke is on them, because they get made fun of on a snotty BBS somewhere.

This is the alternate reality game that Barry and the Wyoming Incident never dreamed of.

If that's the part you like best, then you need a humor-sense transplant, because this is the funniest shit ever.

If we were sitting there reading off a script, like, "okay, you be the DJ guy, and I'll be the guy that sounds like he just walked out of the lobotomy room" then that's one thing. But it isn't. There's no script. This sort of comedic timing is spectacular, and it's popping up spontaneously.

It's like talking with Gerrit on the phone, except thousands of people are listening. Well, hundreds, anyway. Maybe thousands.

Well, I also liked the part where Clash, after saying that the station is "Radio Without the Rules" says that he just can't give the CD to the girl because it's against the, ah, rules. That was also funny. He's a funny guy and would instantly (should he ever move) be the best DJ on the air for any station in Denver, Colorado.

Also, is there an archive of Clash's day-to-day at that one job he had where he was going as long as possible without trying?
