Luke & Carrie's Bad Rapport

Episode #063 – Rent-A-Baby

LukeSki — Fri, 11 May 2012 18:02:56 +0000

This episode is done in a style that I like to call “thrown together quickly”. We start off with a quick visit with Blasted Bill and Moonbeam of Pod Of Destiny fame recorded just after PenguiCon. Then we jump ahead to Luke & Carrie in the Wisconsin Dells following their visit to the Twin Cities so baby Alex could meet his grandparents and great grandparents. We recap the trip as well as PenguiCon and Luke’s day at the Ultimate Marvel Marathon. Then we return home to Josh & Sara and wrap up with News of the Stupid and remind people to please donate to Luke Ski’s Kickstarter, because if it hits the stretch goal of $5,500, we will throw “LukeSkiCon” featuring the “FuMP Fest” concert in Chicago (see website for details, Kickstarter ends on May 19th). We also have comedy & music tracks by Mikey Mason, Power Salad, Steve Martin, Wyatt Cenac, Brak, and Digital Underground, and a drawing of Carrie and Luke as ducks for no reason.

Episode #062 – Post-Natal Freestyling

LukeSki — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 22:33:21 +0000

Luke Ski here. I have a Kickstarter campaign I just launched to raise money to buy myself the Audio/Video equipment I have always wanted to have for my live concert performances. You can watch my pitch video, learn what nifty prizes you can earn, and donate (if you can), at the Kickstarter.com page for “Luke Ski’s AV Concert Rig”.

This is another Bad Rapport recorded with Luke’s Zen player in Carrie’s living room as she tends to the lactation-related needs of 7-week-old Alex. Once Alex is a little older, we’ll try to get back to recording our shows at Luke’s house, so thanks in advance for your understanding if the sound quality is sub-par. In this episode, we talk about seeing Nerdist Podcast live, Luke reports on MarCon, and Carrie finally reviews the ‘Boob Tree’/'Eat Poop You Cat’/whatever-that-game-is-called cards from the 17-person round played at MarsCon 2012. (Note: I edited 72 minutes of that down to about 6 minutes.) You can see the cartoony highlights we discuss on the show drawn by Lindsay Smith, TV’s Kyle, and Luke Ski here: BOOB TREE MARSCON 2012. There’s also News of the Stupid, and awesome tracks by Power Salad, Cirque du So What?, Scooter Picnic, Devo Spice featuirng Worm Quartet, Brak, The Main Street Singers, Adam Warrock, and the Guild.

Episode #061 – Unmoisten My Nipples

LukeSki — Thu, 29 Mar 2012 06:45:49 +0000

Hey! We actually recorded an episode that’s like one of our usual episodes before this whole “miracle of creating human life” stuff started a month ago. In this episode Luke publicly discusses parts of his body that were hacked off and sent away for testing, and talks entirely too long about how he spent entirely too long shopping for shoes. Meanwhile, Carrie provides sustenance for Alex (a new regular feature on our show), and encourages/discourages belching among the males in her presence prejudicially based on their age. So unfair. We also touch upon a few remaining bits of MarsCon 2012 business (see the featured art by Bad Rapport fan Whitney), and we use Superhorse’s retcon technology to transport you all to the night Cirque du So What recorded all the material for the “Stupid Cowboy Thing” albums. We also have News of the Stupid, some classic stand-up comedy tracks by Richard Jeni, and comedy hip-hop by LL Cool J, 3rd Bass, Anthrax, Partners In Kryme, Vanilla Ice, and Mitt Romney. Word.

Episode #060 – Live From Lombard, It’s Alex Rasey!

LukeSki — Fri, 16 Mar 2012 08:12:20 +0000

This episode lacks our usual segments like News of the Stupid, Comments, and most of our end-of-the-show stuff, due to newborn-related inconvenience. Here’s what it does have: The first and most significant part consists of Carrie recounting the events of Alex’s birth day. Joining us is her temporary live-in baby-helper, Moonbeam of the often recorded but rarely posted podcast “Blasted Bill & Moonbeam’s Pod Of Destiny”. And since one hyperactive blonde child isn’t enough for this podcast, we have her son Ferris as well as Luke. The second part consists of the trio of adults discussing their favorite bits from the current run of Saturday Night Live. The third part was literally copied and pasted from Episode #92 of the FuMPcast, where Luke Ski, Devo Spice, ShoEboX, Chris Mezzolesta, and Insane Ian recap MarsCon 2012 (so if you already heard it, you can skip the last 45 minutes of the show). We also have comedy tracks by Garfunkel & Oates, The Arrogant Worms, Da Vinci’s Notebook, MC Frontalot, Carrie Dahlby, SNL, and Cirque du So What? from their new album “Stupid Cowboy Thing – Volume 2: Additional Squid”.

Speaking of new albums, we just released “Luke & Carrie’s Bad Rapport: Best Of 2011″ album! It’s one CD with just under 80 minutes of highlights from our 2011 podcast episodes, featuring appearances by our spouses, friends, colleagues, and sometimes Carrie hits Luke and you can hear it. A lot. It’s only $9.99 plus shipping for the CD with MP3 download, or you can just get the MP3 download for only $4.99! So please support the show and pick one up today. Do it for President Baby.

Episode #059 – Kyle And Luke Talk About Cartoons, While Carrie Has A Baby

LukeSki — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 16:56:15 +0000

Yesterday, which was Leap Year Day 2012, at 1:55 pm Carrie Dahlby gave birth to Alexander David Rasey, 8 lbs 4 oz, 21 inches long. He has blonde hair & greenish/brownish eyes, and Carrie says he looks just like his Daddy, Josh Rasey. Much congratulations and hugs to both of them.

This podcast starts with a recording with Carrie, Josh, and Ken done on Carrie’s birthday at Potbelly. It then time jumps to yesterday when I recorded an impromptu rest-of-the-podcast with special guest TV’s Kyle. This may come as a shock to you, but in this episode, Kyle and Luke talk about cartoons. Specifically, Kyle’s current and past experiences in the field of television animation production, and they rundown all the big cartoon movies of 2011. Also, with Leap Day 2012 being the 20th Anniversary of “Ray TV”, Luke talks about that for, like, an hour, which feels like another freakin’ Leap Year itself. Click here to watch the 2-minute video referenced in that discussion. We also have News of the Stupid, and music by Scooter Picnic, Flat 29, and Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake. Hope to see all of you who aren’t having babies at MarsCon 2012.

Episode #058 – No Genocide For Me

LukeSki — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 05:50:07 +0000

There aren’t a lot of podcasts out there that post a show on Valentine’s Day with the word ‘genocide’ in the title I’d bet.

Anyway, In this episode, Carrie tells us of Alex’s continuing expedition down the birth canal, Luke talks about the 27 million projects he’s working on, we both discuss the dream jobs we wanted when we were kids, and we do a sloppy unprepared review of an excellent album, “Secret Handshake” by Flat 29.

There’s also funny music by Nuclear Bubble Wrap, Jesus H. Christ and the 4 Hornsmen Of The Apocalypse, and a song from “Smash” written by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman performed by Megan Hilty.

So cuddle up by the fire with your significant other and do the nasty while listening to Luke Ski promote MarsCon 2012. I know nothing makes me hornier.

Episode #057 – Eat Poop You Cat

LukeSki — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 06:01:24 +0000

You’d be surprised how many times when I get to this step in the podcasting process, the typing of the description of the episode, I have a complete feeling of apathy and am in no way in the mood to write something pithy there in an attempt to entertain you, the few listeners who actually care enough to come to this page itself and read these things. This is one of those times. This episode has News of the Stupid and funny music by CB4, Lucas, Digital Underground, Carla Ulbrich, and Flat 29, partially depicted here in cake form. Apparently you can fake a cake on the make. Incidentally, their new album “Secret Handshake” just dropped, you should get it. However, if you haven’t bought the MarsCon 2012 Dementia Track Fund Raiser album by now, then our ancestors fought and died in the Revolutionary War for nothing. Nice job. Oh, and in this episode Carrie and I talk about stuff, like this article about movies.

Episode #056 – Fruits Of The Boob Tree

LukeSki — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 08:31:26 +0000

At this point Luke’s brain is so mired in MarsCon 2012 preparations that he forgot to mention that he had the #1 song on Dr. Demento’s Funny 25 Countdown of 2011. You can read all about it at Luke’s LiveJournal. In this episode, Carrie talks about her High School Drama Club experiences, Luke unsuccessfully tries to impose a New Year’s resolution on Carrie, and the two of them get into an argument about which of the two of them has been trying to retcon their past dating relationship out of the continuity of this reality. We also have comedy & music tracks from Insane Clown Posse, the great Luke Ski, Dan Telfer, and George Clinton. Not to be confused with “Snoopy The Dogg”. OKAAAAY!

Links to the images from the two examples of the “Boob Tree” drawing/phrase guessing game discussed in this episode are here: EXAMPLE #1, EXAMPLE #2. Coming very soon to this podcast feed: The MarsCon 2012 Dementia Track Fund Raiser CD/MP3 album Preview!

Episode #055 – Think About Goats

LukeSki — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 07:41:51 +0000

In this episode we play a lot of great comedy music recently posted at the FuMP by the great Luke Ski, Scooter Picnic, Devo Spice, and Ookla the Mok, as well as a couple of funny tunes by Jeff and Maya Bohnhoff and Jessica Frech. In News of the Stupid we report on culinary counter-insurgents; Luke rants about dumb public speaking cliches, the non-obscurity of Yukon Cornelius, and post-hypnotic suggestions planted in 22-year-old music videos that still trigger a Pavlovian response in him to this day; and Carrie talks about DuhanCon, the hotness of David Tennant, and tells Sarah about her magical nipple mole. You know, the usual. Thanks for a great 2011, we’ll see you all on the other side of the calendar.
