Spontaneanation Ep 37 - Live at LA Podfest 2015

Episode 37: "Saltwater Tuffy Shoppe"
Paul F. Tompkins welcomes the beautiful people of Beverly Hills AND the internet to a LIVE episode of Spontaneanation recorded at the 2015 LA Podfest! This week, Paul’s special guest is Andy Daly of Comedy Central’s Review! They chat about Andy’s on-camera experience with lizards, how Andy learned to tell time, and his mistrust of the ocean. Paul is then joined by Matt Gourley, Craig Cackowski, and Little Janet Varney to improvise a story set at a Saltwater Tuffy Shoppe. And as always, Eban Schletter (only the best) scores it all on piano!

Paul F Tompkins is the funniest dude ever.

[@AsciiKid]

You're a giant among men, Mr Tompkins, a hero, a saint. Thank you for the endless free entertainment.

[@kylesteinhauser2535]

Paul, I’m sad this podcast is over.

[@DanielLDavidson88]

Andy Daly is THE BEST IMPROVISOR EVER, and Janet Varney is fantastic and gorgeous...

[@dannybrickwell]

Janet Varney's uncontrollable laughter is infectious!

[@woodsward]

I never knew how much I needed to see Paul fall back off his chair with my own two eyes until this moment.

[@chadroeder]

Legendary. As a salt water tuffy merchant, I can vouch for the validity of everything depicted herein.

[@lisacoleman7625]

I love hearing (and now seeing) Lil Janet Varney laugh in the background of the opening monologues!

[@coolerthanyourmom123]

Lisa Coleman I was thinking the same thing. it's always very distinct.

[@dustyb58]

Yes, her laugh and Paul's laugh are so never contained and are wonderful things to hear

[@MisterHPlays]

Her laugh is deeply infectious.

[@zack4president]

Her laugh is the reason I can't subscribe. That shit is ridiculous .

[@blahhhh581]

Is it P.C. to call her genius? Who the fuck cares, she so is!!!!!!!!!

[@Jarons20]

I enjoy this podcast, but to watch it, so much more

[@Jarons20]

Only the best

[@arnoldsapida2885]

@@Jarons20 Eban's involved. It is the best.

[@laff2024]

Thanks for slingin' that 'tent our way, PFT!

[@nesloq]

Was a couple rows back for this and the chair giving out at the top was indeed magical and hilarious. As was never mentioning that it happened. On top of that, this is also one of my favorite Sponts, one of the funniest.

[@alchemywow]

This is probably close to my dream podcast lineup so it's amazing to see this in action and watch how it all unfolds. Thanks for sharing this gem!

[@HunterJE]

A lesser man would have cut the stage-fall out of the video. Bravo for your honesty. (This was probably my favorite of all the streams I watched during that Podfest, was so glad the streaming player managed to keep working for me for that hour...)

[@SteveBluescemi]

The seven wives bit beginning at 42:20 is one of the funniest things I've ever heard.

[@dorian4404]

ITS A FEBRUARY 2017 MIRACLE !!

[@jontraz5993]

Oh, man this is great. I live in Sweden so this is a fantastic Easter egg for a foreign superfan!

[@CyKlops915]

LIL' JANET VARNEY!!!

[@BrianMurrayPA]

....more like Fall F. Tompkins

[@850twalker]

You have been officially elected as Mayor of the internet

[@Stenno00]

Amazing. Well done!

[@stephenryan1912]

Zing!

[@motleygrewe]

What an incredibly unexpected treat to trip across in my recent upload feed. Much gratitude!

[@UnknownUPO]

I am just happy that this exists videophonically. I have longed to see PFT "Kelsey Grammer" for one year and several months.

[@alissaklein3361]

This was so fun to watch!! I always love listening, but I'd really love to see more of these too!

[@NicetoAnimals]

Thank you so much for posting this!!

[@scourned7]

Spontaneanation is one of the greatest podcasts on earth and to actually watch how it unfolds on video just makes it that much better.

[@Stenno00]

YES!!!! Thank you soo much, Paul!!

[@gerbshall]

This is my favorite episode! Thanks for posting the video!

[@rio197]

Thanks for the video, Paul. This is a gem!

[@snorlaxluver]

Yes! thanks for uploading this. It's great to see one of these not just the audio.

[@the.seagull.35]

Spont is by far my favorite podcast. I loved watching this and I hope there are more live videos coming out. Thanks for all the great entertainment.

[@kidv2]

This is just a delight, first time I see the video though. So much fun

[@Diablagato]

I loved this! You should do this more often!

[@ElladorGilman]

Thank you Paul! This was everything I needed... aaaannnndddd more! (Imagine that in your voice, I know I did.)

[@Elizabelle79]

As a longtime fan of DAP this made me unbelievably happy:)

[@BNL07604]

A barrel of lolz. Thanks PFT!

[@melissahollister9672]

THIS is tremendous. ❤️

[@neil6872]

YES this is awesome!! Thanks

[@driggy5]

you're the best, Mister 'Kins

[@sigmaphinothing]

Pauly Tomale delivering the goods.

[@doctorlyu]

Thank you!

[@PapaBPoppin]

The call and response at 25:00 was golden

[@matthewwinklermusic]

so glad this is up, but so sad i didn't see it sooner.

[@gregorylamar3607]

I miss this show

[@JohnC-fv2we]

I made a new friend in my town because of this podcast.

[@FrisbeeValentine]

I remember hearing the watch throw part (around 0:12:20) happen on the podcast yyyyyears ago when it came out. Watching this now, I knew it was coming but, like Andy with that lizard, I was still surprised.

[@BillAndTheCoolguys]

thank you!

[@dustyb58]

I'm watching this hours after I listened to episode 69 where there was ANOTHER reference to Daredevil (the man without fear) ... mind blown!

[@tobyism]

Yes! i remember watching this live via the streaming ticket and was hoping the paul tump would remain in. Also Andy Daly fleeing for h is own life. love you paul

[@RichJohannsen]

LIL JANET VARNEY!!

[@mewsikal]

Pre-Lil JV.

[@RichJohannsen]

Don't you see, John. She was Lil JV all along. The power was in her heart. (freeze frame. roll credits)

[@kidv2]

My god I love Matt weird voices, always hilarious

[@lilfeezy]

please dont wait so long to upload todays episode :)

[@porkfriedrice1530]

Hell yeah! Love u Paul

[@DollfaceNesmith]

Omg the time thing WAS ME. I got so much shit from my teacher. I got a watch too years later and it worked.

[@lloydanthonydavies]

Thank you so much for uploading this, Paul! Really cool to be able to visualise one of your shows! Plus Andy is one of my favourite funny persons

[@stargazerfish0]

I feel the exact same way about flying as Andy Daly - can't do anything about it, oh well.

[@teeeskay]

I thought I heard Ron Funches laughin the crowd

[@enternamehere3690]

Awesome

[@SortOfEggish]

I totally was afraid to learn to tell time too! I thought it was insane!

[@xsuperduperspoonx]

love

[@chriscourville4612]

Around 54:20 you can hear the pianist drop some John carpenter. Halloween 1 to be precise.

[@AcousticProfit]

I need to get me someone who looks at me the way Matt Gourley looks at PFT.

[@tredeuce]

Seems life it you don't subscribe then you don't get to see PFT. Hope to see another stand up hour soon.

[@BabyFaceBren]

I love how Andy Daly wipes his hands on the curtains. At least he wasn’t Don DiMello at the time.

[@JohnLee-ue6gy]

Hwee-hwee-hweee, uh yes, Santa would like a sample of pumpkin foot.

[@andrewfling5630]

Halloween theme! Yay!

[@andrewfling5630]

And The Exorcist! Woot!

[@docxen]

I pray every time matt sees Janet he goes MAAAA

[@arknark]

Oh, OH! Andy Daly disappeared cause you DRAGGED HIM DOWN with you!! The story has unfolded properly for me now...

[@jeremcclain]

Aye, Do Moora 'dese!

[@mascadadelpantion8018]

At 2:20 months he says.......... That was some pretty big hopeful thinking he had there!!!!

[@DodoDiaz]

00:32

[@blahhhh581]

Do try out The Unbelievable Podcast. They've accidentally created a group of people who have banded together and found friendship. It's super lovely :)

[@1badombre82]

Gotta bring back Mitch and Deloris!

[@cleverusername9369]

I'm mainly here for Gourley

[@peterpants1963]

I accidently played this at 0.75 speed and was wondering what was wrong with everybody. :/

[@gregorylamar3607]

1:09:40 Undyyyy Duuuuuulyyyy

[@60framesorbust86]

Spontanean... 50 minutes of interview, and 20 minutes of improv thanks!

[@nra4ever1973]

Now I don't want to blame Trump's election on the late posting of this video, but here we are...

[@benwhackley]

29:36 RUDE!

[@snot2late]

sorry to anyone and everyone reading this. i don't know how to be like this (like they are being at 17 min or so) this is a comment that I'm making to myself so just move on and don't read this. being vulnerable and truthful and funny. fear of being a nerd in front of everyone who is a cool joke type. just loud and aggressive cars going past my house...the jocks having fun and having confidence and me with no self worth and me writing in my comments diary hoping for a fucking savor

[@spensert4933]

That blond guy's laugh... ugh.,.,.,
