Office Hours Live is a weekly call-in show with Tim Heidecker, DJ Douggpound and Vic Berger (aka the holy trinity). Every episode is a wild audio-visual journey with drops, live music, and Tim's rants and riffs on life, music, politics, his kids and whatever else is happening in his life (and the lives of our callers). Special guests have included Jack Black, Fred Armisen, John C. Reilly, Chelsea Peretti, Weyes Blood, Reggie Watts, Bob Odenkirk, Thundercat and more.

Thanks for having King Gizzard in. They are extremely talented great people!

Missed Doug on there he knows how to to talk to these young rock band types

[@JohnnnyMojo]

You don't really notice his importance until he's gone. This episode had zero witty puns and so the vibe just wasn't able to reach full potential.

Lucas is the most wonderful man and managed to get a poster signed by the guys during the weather delay at Red Rocks. The entire band walked by several times and Joey totally brushed against my shoulder. That happened. Best anniversary trip ever.

[@dragon13304]

Proud Melbournian here! Seen them 10 times here in their home city. Amazing band! My favourite of all time

[@Pixelkip]

Daamn I wish I lived in AUS it’s hard to see them out here in CA

⁠@@Pixelkipnot only do I wish I was in Australia, but I’d take Cali as well. It’s so fucking hard to see them when you live in Idaho😭😂😂

[@deervideos648]

This is great. Thanks you! I humbly suggest that Tim collab with King Gizzard on a piss-chugging inspired version of The River and call it The Yellow River.

[@kyles5513]

Hahaha

[@JoshAronoff]

Hell yeah 😂

[@caseyadams6213]

When I heard the end of Flamethrower and it turning electronic I immediately hoped that the next album would be a kind of electronic version of PDA, so cool that that's what it's going to be.

[@scullyitsme123]

They said the next two albums would be a yin and Yang concept, you’re probably not too far off

[@jackprezo]

I have been a Tim & Eric fan and King Gizz fan for a bit, and I've always known about Office Hours, and I'm not sure how I haven't been watching this. Thanks for the perfect combo to get me to become a fan. This podcast is the perfect one for me, I'm realizing. Fucking hilarious and still informational, somehow...so yeah thanks.

Hilarious that Tim H goofs on how people dance at shows. I saw this guy at a Malcolm Mooney show (original singer in Can) in NYC. People were JAMMING and Tim H was staring at his phone the whole time. What a dork!

Yeah I hope so. I never understand the whole Phish phans hating on Goose. Music is music bro. They understand that one day Treys not gonna be able to do it anymore and they’re gonna have to go to Goose. I don’t see Gizzard as a Phish kind of band. Way too metal. It has to be a joke lol

where do i start with this band? never listened. maybe just give me 3 albums to show some variance and get me going

[@thehangman3105]

@@ewoknroll Flying Microtonal Banana was where I got started with them. It really depends your musical taste. They have albums ranging from Jazz, EDM, to Thrash Metal. There's something for everyone. I suppose I really liked Murder of the Universe too. That's a concept album. What are your tastes?

[@khalewren2734]

@@ewoknrollI’d say Nonagon infinity and I’m in your mind fuzz are the best albums of theirs to start with, because not only are they some of their best albums (in my opinion), they also represent their music very well

Love to hear Joey and Luke talk! For the dude asking how to hear odd time signatures I'd say to get familiar with 1/4 and 1/8 notes. Learn to tell them apart, start by counting the quarter notes, or where you'd likely strum down on a guitar. Up strokes are usually 1/8 notes

[@buckminsterowski]

wow great advice 🙄

[@SterlingSimmons22]

How to hear odd time signatures: listen to the music and count until it repeats

[@joellamkins7847]

Hope Vic is feeling better … and Doug speedy return. But what an amazing 3rd installment of Eric’s ice cream report. Of course the Captain wonderful as usual…. Uncle Phil with another side splitting appearance and great guests KG& the LW… and of course the God the comedic genius the one and only Tim Hiedekker… !!! Phenomenal!!!!
