Hi Aziz Ansari!! Huge, huge fan. Tell us a bit about how it felt to see the President of the United States of America not only talking about you, but teasing you about your Twitter follower count? That just sounds like it would be the most surreal moment ever.

Edit: Link to video for the curious.

Oh come on, he's answering everything he can and is doing a good job. Let him plug his project once or twice.

Dogs should be RAW. And living!!!

I was watching the live stream of your SXSW panel and you were promoting Mountain Dew Kickstart and it went from being something I'd never heard before to a word I'd heard 100 times within an hour. I then went to the bodega down the street (like ten minutes ago, after the podcast) and some kids were trying to shoplift, and another kid snitched on them saying "I heard them talking about how they were gonna steal a Kickstart." I almost burst out laughing until I realized it's a real drink.

I don't have a question.

Hi Scott! Huge huge huge fan. Comedy Bang Bang is like, my dream show, I have seen every episode a million times and I am so glad it exists. I also have fond memories of watching Mr. Show when I was probably too young to be watching Mr. Show.

My question is: How much of CBB is improv, or what's a specific/favorite scene that made it in that was improv? Some of the interviews have the feeling of an incredibly polished improv scene where both people are playing characters, and I'm always curious if they were pre-written. One scene that comes to mind is when you talk to Andy Samberg about how his father is a tiny man who beats him up, and then Reggie makes you both talk louder because you are whispering. Something about that scene and a lot of others just feels so natural and hilarious that I am curious if it's maybe happening right on the spot, and you're just playing off of each other.

Thanks so much for reading this and for being the best, Hot Soccermom.
