So was this the guy? You know THE GUY?

Jason C. — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 09:25:34 +0000

but the creative guy not bringth the feed to itunes.

Just keeping you on your toes Jack. You gotta have one of those fans.

By: Sarah from Charleston

Sarah from Charleston — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 13:37:42 +0000

speaking of “one of those fans”
the people who comment here should know that i am NOT a 14 year old girl, and the “heart” thing was merely a way for me to show my very great love for Jack Mangan in kind of a silly, somewhat dorky way.

As long as you know that, you can continue to rip on it all you want.

and uhhh — i havent listened to the show yet so, as soon as i do, i’ll comment again

*demerits for commenting before listening*

By: Alvie

Alvie — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 14:17:03 +0000

Nobody is ripping on it, Sarah. The reason I started doing it is that Jack enjoyed the fact you said it and stated that I never say I “heart” him. So thats all that it.

Seriously. Its all right.

By: Sarah from Charleston

Sarah from Charleston — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 14:23:35 +0000

It’s cool, you know i heart you too, Alvie. (altho, every time i see your name i think of woody allen *shrug*)

By: Alvie

Alvie — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 14:27:53 +0000

*shiver* Sarah. Please, never think of woody allen again. Please?

Killroy is here too? As in Styx? As in Domo Arrigato? We thank you very much Mr. Roboto!

Jack, I dunno who your research team is, but Star Wars/Dukes ‘o Hazzard? Fraggin Pulitzer worthy.

By: Sarah from Charleston

Sarah from Charleston — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 14:32:21 +0000

I would say why your name makes me think of W**** A****… but…. Those words are blasphemy around these parts….

Please say. Please Please.

Welp good thing I have MST3k torrents to watch.

By: Sarah from Charleston

Sarah from Charleston — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 15:49:32 +0000

Alvie (ok, well, Alvy) Singer is Woody Allen’s character in…. dare i say it…. Annie Hall….. which… won the Best Picture Oscar against Star Wars in 1978.

By: Alvie

Alvie — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 15:52:42 +0000

Oh thats right. Eh, thats not horrible.

By: Alvie

Alvie — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 17:23:47 +0000

Thanks for another fine interview Jack. You two had really good chemistry. Keep it up and you may find yourself hosting a cable access show. Dream big buddy!

By: jackmangan

jackmangan — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 19:21:13 +0000

Thanks everyone. It’s all good, Sarah! No one is making fun of you.

This episode should be available in iTunes now.

By: Jason C.

Jason C. — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 20:08:30 +0000

Awesome! Bitching really does get what you want.

All kidding aside Thank you so much Jack. You sir are a badass.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 20:43:15 +0000

Well Sarah 4 posts no more hearts but have you listened to the show yet?Careful what you say about 14 year old girls that’s illegalin some states. Good one on Alvy Singer, that really goes back a ways-I saw that picture in the theater.
Agreed that this is one of Jack’s better interviews tone/flow-wise.
Most definitely agree with Jason-the more you bitch at Jack the more heartable he is.

And by the way- I went to the same high school that Woddy Allen did. He mentions in Play It Again Sam (Midwood High School, Brooklyn, NY).

Cmon…

Somebody please make the mandatory Woody Allen school joke here.

I cant bear to…

By: Jack H

I can’t it is illegal to make bad Woody Allen trolling school yard jokes here in Oklahoma.

Remeber in Bananas during the rebel survival training in the jungle. The beautiful female troop takes off running clutching her breast and screaming, “I’ve been bitten by a snake.” Immediately alkl the male troops go running after her to help “suck out” the poison. Ah, some things never change.

Sorry but what did I want know about Alvie?

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 22:36:39 +0000

Alvie, oh you mean Jason? Or is it Mason. All these names, I’m so confused. I heart a brain.

By: Pete

Pete — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 22:48:33 +0000

Thanks for the interview, Jack. Megan (my wife for anyone who’s wondering) even liked it, though she said you should have interviewed her, because she’s hotter and funnier.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 22:52:49 +0000

It’s the GUY-Hey Pete good interview. Now get Jack’s money for him-lol. Keep up the good work!

By: jackmangan

jackmangan — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 23:09:15 +0000

Pete, somehow you’ve become, “The Guy”.
Thanks for the interview! Your hotter and funnier wife certainly could have chimed in while we were talking! haha

We’ll announce here and at the CGP site (www.creativeguypublishing.com) when the Spherical Tomi print chapbook is available.

By: Jack H

Jack H — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 23:49:11 +0000

There is an idea… re-do the whole interview(again) only with the wives.
I like the sound of that. Mrs Deadpan interviewing Mrs. The Guy.

By: Alvie

Alvie — Thu, 01 Jun 2006 23:55:19 +0000

Wait, what are we knowing about me?

You can always just ask. Like Im gonna shy away.

Also, I will also give props to “The Man” also.

Props.

Go ahead and keep making smart comments. I’m having them all printed up as “fortune cookie” wisdom for the little strips inside. I’ll sell these on the internet and make big money. I tried once before, but I put dollar bills inside of cookies. We ended up losing to much money.

By: Alvie

Alvie — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 00:13:31 +0000

MMMM cookies!

The kind you eat are good too.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 00:36:49 +0000

Is this Pete the”GUY” guy, the same as the “Creative GUY” guy or another guy?

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 00:40:19 +0000

Alvie busily pouring large bottle of Pepsi into his Chips Ahoy. Reason-he’ll do anything to “pop” his “cookies.”

I think it’s in, “EEEEEEEEeeeeee”

By: Pete

Pete — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 02:58:37 +0000

Jack — I guess I’m ok being “the guy” (no caps) as long as I don’t have to walk around making pistols with my hands and winking at people.

Although Herb Tarlek is certainly a hero of mine…

Mark — thanks. And um…money? Jack and I have a special deal where I pay him in chickens and goats. And that should start another whole round of speculation, ba dump bum.

Im really impressed that Pete has stayed on this board for this long.

Hell of a guy you are, Pete.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 04:12:01 +0000

Umm. sure that wasn’t Re-pete? Mark turns to the Santeria priest and discusses a deal for the Mangan’s chickens and goats. The santerio gleefully agrees and offers big mojo to the” GUY” for making the Mangan into speculative fiction “Big kahuna.”

Huzzah!

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 17:14:03 +0000

Mark applies fresh spray of cologne and manages to get most of the smoke odor removed from Alvies flame. Inspired by ethics learned from Jonathan Coulton’s Skullcrusher Mountain he makes appeal to Jason for non-alignment pact (Pere Ubu version) whereby Alvie will be pummeled relentlessly by Godzilla, chanelled by Jason and Mothra-plus(plus indicating extra-caffeine) chanelled by the Shogun.

Mark is quoted for the record saying, “I tried to get out, and they pulled me back in again.” Sports Racers stay tuned. Huh, if Alvie’s so smart why’d he spell that like “thaaat.”

By: Alvie

Alvie — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 17:33:57 +0000

Wa! Thaaat was brutal.

I dont wanna be pummeled.

*sighs of sympathy from the studio audience*

By: Mark Forman

Your begging for mercy has only shown yourself up for the vile belly-crawling parasite that you are. Mothra-plus takes great pleasure in destroying your village and eating all of your wool sweaters. Zilla get thirsty have him drink all that nice Coors-water.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 18:09:06 +0000

Your pleas for more saw sauce and the phone number from the adolescent waitress serving you your fugu sashimi have only caused the Shogun tolook upon you with more contempt. Come now Mothra-ex and bomb this barbaric hill-mongering cliff dweller back tot he flinstones. GZ let’s get this SMACdown going downton so the GZ can become the GZA once again.

Mercy for boulder over the shoulder holder-never!

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 18:15:14 +0000

Reporters line up asking the Shogun why such earth-scorching wrath against the former friend from the rockies. “Why,why indeed”, snorts the Shogun. Might you ever show him mercy Mr. Shogun? All of a sudden there everything becme very still and a noticeable chill fllled the auditorium. The shogun’s answer came quickly like the lightning flash of his katana-”Regarding this Alvie infidel… I wouldn’t piss on him if he was on FIRE.”

By: Alvie

Alvie — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 18:18:58 +0000

Well while you were there bibble babbling with reporters Im flying away on my Gamera. Getting dizzy.

Need to … blech!

What if I was really really on fire? Would you piss on me then, Mr. Shogun?

Shogun disgusted by gamera-induced puke offering. Smiles at Jason’s observation. Will not give away Japanese re-building secret though. Shogun now leans back and starts to do pre-victory break dance. Gamera-you going down fool. Shogun, no it can’t be-he is morphing into… Mr. T.

I called 911 a long time ago…
Don’t you see how late they’re reactin’
They only come and they come when they wanna
So get the morgue embalm the goner
They don’t care ’cause they stay paid anyway
They teach ya like an ace they can’t be betrayed
I know you stumble with no use people
If your life is on the line they you’re dead today
Late comings with the late comin’ stretcher
That’s a body bag in disguise y’all betcha
I call ‘em body snatchers quick they come to fetch ya?
With an autopsy ambulance just to dissect ya
They are the kings ’cause they swing amputation
Lose your arms, your legs to them it’s compilation
I can prove it to you watch the rotation
It all adds up to a funky situation
So get up get, get get down
911 is a joke in yo town
Get up, get, get, get down
Late 911 wears the late crown

And we are dancing mechanic
We are the robots

We are the robots

Ja tvoi sluga, (I’m your slave)

we are programmed just to do
anything you want us to
we are the robots

Hey was that Jeremy that just pooped in?

Popped in… wha ha ha!

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:20:41 +0000

Hogan’s Heroes was one of my favorite childhood tv shows. It was on at 3:30 every afternoon, so first thing right after school. Great stuff. Bob Crane who played the Hogan alleged to have quite an interesting private life ending in Phoenix no less. Re: Jeremy, go on-scat,scat.

By: Jason C.

Jason C. — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:24:50 +0000

thats funny casue I used to watch the show after school as well. Syndication rocks.

By: Alvie

Alvie — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:25:34 +0000

Anyone here seen Auto Focus?

Thatll tell ya most of what you need to know bout Bob Crane. And Greg Kinnear does a great job.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:27:41 +0000

Yo Jason-did Alvie ever ask you about Denver/Texas particularly Denton,Texas band connection? Know anything about that? If so-care to comment? Would you mind making comment to my voice mail? I’d be happy to play it on show.

By: Jason C.

Jason C. — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:29:08 +0000

Jason is confused.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:29:17 +0000

Speaking of Greg Kinnear, his brother Steve Kinnear was my roomate in college. I still remember Steve talking about his kid brother Greg, wanting to go to Hollywood-we both had a good laugh over that one.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:36:37 +0000

Jason-confused by my band comment/request thing? I did my last podcast about denver bands and band friends assited by Alvie and we talked about thisand we both though to check with you since you’re in Denton to see if you had any knowledge on this one.

By: Jeremy from Seattle

Jeremy from Seattle — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:36:37 +0000

Oh no im not big on the music scene. sorry.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 20:44:00 +0000

jason:Cool-thanks just the same.
Alvie-I kid you not we both got kicked out of the dorm because genius to remain unamed “wink, wink, nudge,nudge) left a bag of herb on my desk, unbeknownst to me and our Resident Assistant saw it and tried to bust us. We later moved into an apartment where our social lives improved greatly. Steve was a hell of a good shot in basketball. They grew up in Greece mostly cause their dad was stationed there for the US gov’t.

yes Jeremy-that Greece-grin.

By: Alvie

Alvie — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 21:03:23 +0000

Thats awesome man. So, you should have an “in” next time Kinnear gets a show!

Oh yes, youre in.

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 21:09:35 +0000

From your mouth- i still think Greg’s finest performance and there are many was with Jack Nicholson in As Good As it Gets. That movie was really a throw back to the golden years of movies, good cast, script, acting. Greg was a scream with Matt Damon in that farelly Brothers movie about the Siamese twins as well.

By: Alvie

Alvie — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 21:13:17 +0000

Stuck on You! I forgot bout that. Course, to me he’ll always be THE host of Talk Soup.

Hey Jack! Youve got connections! See if you cant get Kinnear on the show, wont you?

By: Mark Forman

Mark Forman — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 21:20:40 +0000

And oh jack you know we heart you baby in a way hat telly savalas never could, and we’re graetful for you leaving a light on here. No snacks, ok no biggie, but dude-how’s about some coffee? I know, bitch, bitch, bitch-must be the last bit of New Yorker in me.

jackmangan — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 21:26:05 +0000

Jeremy, welcome to Deadpanland! You too, Rhettro!

Coffee, sure — but no soup for you!

Alvie - I agree. I’ll always remember Greg Kinnear as the Talk Soup guy. He’s definitely proven a capable actor since those days, though. . . Go ahead Mark! Call in your connections - book him for a Deadpan appearance

Talk Soup happened while I was over here, Duck Soup happened before my mom was born, but is the funniest soup I’ve ever seen. http://www.google.com/url?sa=U&start=1&q=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0023969/&e=14905&ei=wK2ARIKEM8GaYKmjiJgM

Alvie one thing you need to know about Arizona-while it is dry as a bone, they are big on”water sports” there. So might want to keep in the pool-if rhettro standing nearby and the water warms up suddenly, well… you know the drill.

Rhettro — Fri, 02 Jun 2006 22:45:47 +0000

Yeah Ditto its best just to jump in and hope for the best…

Hey so I am going to jump in and make show comments (yes I am way behind, Im working on it)

- Mark’s deadpan smorgasbord as you called it was pure genius
- Im intrigued as to the changes in the next episode
- Im not comfortable with the Dukes of Hazard/Star Wars comparisons, it made me feel dirty. I think the discomfort comes from knowing that I infact was a fan of both… it was the 80s sue me!

By: Alvie

Alvie — Mon, 05 Jun 2006 21:08:45 +0000

The People VS. Andrea D.:

It is hereby decreed that Andrea did knowingly and willfully engage in the following lurid and obscene acts-

1. Watching “Dukes of Hazard” (hereby referred to as “D of H” on television
2. Enjoying “D of H” on television
3. Lying to fellow Deadpanites about feeling “dirty” pertaining to the Star Wars/D of H bit when, in fact, the truth was quite to the contrary.
4. Admitting to being a fan of “both”, when, in reality, there is no such thing.

The People do herby set a trial date of 06/09/69.

Hereby, forthwith, huzzah.

By: ditto

ditto — Mon, 05 Jun 2006 21:10:02 +0000

I don’t ever want to remember the Dukes again. Just scary. I think I’ll go drink myself into a stupor just to forget.

Alvie — Mon, 05 Jun 2006 23:51:14 +0000

Ditto: Your trial date is set for 6/9/69. You cannot wear Daisy Dukes for to obtain clemency.

Jason you cannot possibly have the high ground, for my V.A.M.P ground infantry has been pelting that hill for hours. If you are there, it is a slaughter only those on Iwo would have known. You cannot possibly run, for my Sky Strikers and Dragonflys would strafe you as you ran. I fear, noble Jason, that you cannot out geek me in Gi Joe.

I fear that I have shown too much geek. Must pull back.

The trial date is still a go.

By the way — if any of you see the kid who “borrowed” my HISS Tank Driver action figure back in 82, please tell him I’d like my guy back now.

By: Alvie

Alvie — Tue, 06 Jun 2006 03:17:13 +0000

Jack, that driver was sweet. All red n cool lookin. I never had him. TIll I got a job and bought a bunch of Joes off ebay. Now I are happy again. BROKE, but Joe happy.

Make you a deal. Ill track that kid down if you find the bastard who swiped my Destro AND B.A.T right off my fucking Cobra ATV. Right out my room! When I was there! Sick 12 year old fuck.

I think we all have sad action figure lost/stolen/other stories.

Again, Jack, sorry for your loss.

The one viehcle I had was this awesome helocopter that had this handle on the back with a trigger so you could spin the blades and drop the inculded bombs. Ive totaly forgotten what it was called, but man I loved it.

Oh and it also had a grappling hook thing so you could pic stuff up.

Maybe I want to geek out on Wonder Woman, or Thundercats (Schnarf, Schnarf) who is going to geek out with me on those things… Sarah? Sarah are you there?

Jason C. — Tue, 06 Jun 2006 05:50:30 +0000

Hey Jack, I know a topic you need to have on the show. Venture Bros. Maybe get the guy who made it in for an interview. and if you have no idea what Venture Bros is then you are missing out on the greatest cartoon ever.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Venture_Brothers

Oh and go buy/rent/Netflix the DVD set.

By: jackmangan

jackmangan — Tue, 06 Jun 2006 07:05:46 +0000

I’ve seen ads for that show - but never seen a single episode. Your endorsement goes a long way though, Jason C. I’ll set my DVR. As a Devils fan, it would be cool to get Patrick Warburton on the Deadpan, wouldn’t it?

I think that if you were a kid in the early 80s, you were required by law to watch the Dukes of Hazzard. I remember watching The Incredible Hulk and the Dukes every Friday night.

By: Jason C.

Jason C. — Tue, 06 Jun 2006 11:59:02 +0000

oooo Patrick Warburton would be just as awesome, The Tick, Brock Samson, Krunk, and so many more all in the same podcast.

Oh and Venture Bros. Season 2 starts June 25th. woot

By: Alvie

Alvie — Tue, 06 Jun 2006 14:09:59 +0000

Andrea:

*pushes up wire frame glasses and takes sip of Tab cola. speaks with slight lisp*

For Christmas I would like a mint in box Cobra Mortal with the Brazilian price tag still on the package.

*sips Tab. Inhales*

That would be keen.

Patrick Warburton would be a major coup, Jack. It would be as tho you were shouting, “Look at me bastards! I AM Jack Mangan! All others MUST fear me. Im coming at ya and comin at ya live! w00000000000t!”

Or something like that.

By: Andrea

Andrea — Tue, 06 Jun 2006 14:18:03 +0000

Alvie, its yours. I will scour the earth until I find that for you.

I cant see Jack shouting like that, its not right.
