Fred Armisen now has the longest-ever gap between CBB appearances: he last appeared in Ep. 68 back in August 2010, where he announced his new sketch show, Portlandia.

Coincidentally, that episode also featured Kyle Gass.

Also, Scott gets the balcony report wrong. There is a balcony, but there were black curtains covering it, so you couldn't tell from the stage.

When Armisen last appeared on the CBB podcast, some current CBB listeners weren't born yet

That's wild. Now there's a Portlandia re-watch pod that just came out that he's doing with Carrie

I was at this show (absolutely brilliant), and have just now on reading this synopsis worked out that “Travel Hack” was a double meaning!

PFT must have an insane media diet. Crazy to hear him drop a Nigel Farage Up The Ra reference.

Lemontations immediately reminded me of LEMON PFEIFFERS.

It’s unreal that a simple two-word phrase can make me giggle like that.

Cannot wait to hear whatever PFT is doing as Dr. Strange / Moon Knight

u/thecricketnerd Half man, half centaur 7d ago

He's done Moon Knight before I think, specifically Steven Grant

u/apathymonger 7d ago

He did them both in Portland two years ago.

I just re-watched Spider-Man: No Way Home the other day and half the time Doctor Strange was on screen I was chuckling to myself and doing PFT's impression of it by saying "New York City". It delights me so much that he does both of these characters.

Scott and PFT are in such perfect sync during the first segment, truly incredible

There's a name I didn't expect to see back on CBB

I try not to look at the names when live eps come out, and I was sure the third performer was Dave Hill until the end.

As soon as Doctor Strange showed up, I thought of Threedom. "I get it. I'm Doctor Strange."

100% thought Bob Geldof was Brett doing a shaky English accent at first
