Crankcast Episode 137 – 20080523
You better get ready to, get ready to jump!
This week on a Crankcast that’s not very good at multi-tasking… We experiment with Skype with fantastically mediocre results! Mike recounts his weekend in Iowa while crank reviews some computer junk, and finally we remember to read emails!

A thinner Jack Black?
Always pictured either Rutger Hauer circa Blade Runner or Gary Busey circa Leathal Weapon playing Crank in a movie

That Kiss drawing dude must travel quite a bit. He was at the KC comic con a couple years ago and I bought a laminated Gene Simmons. I was there with some friends who had a table and had made an awesome, lavishly produced indie comic and I think this guy and his colored pencil drawings sold more than them.

Thanks for the help guys. I shall search out Brach’s Circus Peanuts..

Clowns ARE scary.
Not the part-time kind that stand outside of restaurants or car dealerships. Those are just the poor guy that drew the short straw at work. It’s the career clowns that are the terrifying kind. Your circus, full-time party, and rodeo variety and even the mimes. I mean why would someone want to be a clown? There’s no money in it. There’s no fame in it. Those painted on smiles cover up their underlying evil.
Mike’s love of circus peanuts has clearly blinded him to the truth. Not everything associated with the circus is good.

Crank this is for you. Don’t hate… appreciate. Iron is pretty freakin’ good, though not as good as “the incredible melting man” which just saw for the second time in 25 years. Its awesomely bad.

I demand the “Lonely” Hulk theme to close Crank’s last episode in Chicago.

Steve, I was just trying to think of… umm… larger goofy guys.
Brian O., is that dude as wierd looking in person as the pic I saw of him?
No problem Amadeo.
Ben, clowns aren’t scary, they’re just kinda dumb. Mimes are just plain stupid.
John, thanks! I remember that song now… I remember really digging the fact that Metal Church was in it. The incredible Melting Man must also be an incredible sprinter to catch up with that lady like that… I gotta wonder why the director thought that long scene in the hallway was a good idea though.
JimJim… I’ve seen it! I talk about it for a minute this week. It’s truly awesome.
Noel, ask and ye shall receive…
take care y’all,
crank!
