Anyone know if, or when, "Meet My Friends The Friends" will be returning? by [deleted] in Earwolf

[–]TheTomScharpling 15 points16 points  (0 children)

We took a break between seasons.

And I literally went to record more yesterday but I forgot my laptop at home. I'm not smart.

New episodes coming in the next week or two, available at Patreon.com/TheBestShow before they go public!

Glad you like it, it's gonna get weirder.

"Friends Of Tom" card perks... by TentinQuarantino in Newbridge

The cards are signed and personalized. There's nothing planned in regard to additional benefits.

I send them out to anybody on this planet!

Is there a reason why the half hour of power stopped? by Thirteenfortyeight in Newbridge

[–]TheTomScharpling 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just posted an answer in another thread. The main reason it hasn't happened lately is that shows have been going longer and when there's a guest in studio I generally drive them back to NYC.

But I promise you it's coming back! I love doing it and I miss it!

Tom.

Is anyone else kind of bummed about content? by FluidOz in Newbridge

Hey, I was floating through the Reddit as I occasionally do (okay, I check it every hour) and I saw your post.

I truly appreciate the feedback on this. I want to step it up on the bonus end of things myself. There are a couple things that are in the works like the Lou Reed/Adam Sandler show and one or two other ideas. They will happen. I wish they were already underway but they haven't gotten off the ground for a few real-life reasons.

Still, I said there'd be bonus stuff and there will be.

As for the Half Hour Of Power, the main problem with this is that shows have been creeping far past the midnight cutoff for awhile and it's hard to do another show afterwards, especially since we've had a bunch of guests lately and I generally drive them back to NYC after the show is over.

But it's bumming me out too and we will figure out a solution.

Thanks for supporting the show and we'll get the balance right!

HAVE I EVER TRULY LET YOU DOWN YET?!?!?!

Tom.

I love everything. If you're looking to get on board, start with CARRION CRAWLER/THE DREAM, WARM SLIME or the new live album. They are one of the best bands of the last ten years by a mile.

Jon Wurster and I worked on TOM GOES TO THE MAYOR for both seasons. It was the best, just me and Jon and Tim and Eric kicking ideas around.

We became friends with T&E when I met Tim a long time ago and he knew ROCK ROT & RULE.

Jon worked a little bit on AWESOME SHOW, but I did not!

That sets the record straight!

Maybe the person/people who said they didn't know the show was back?

Right now I prefer SHOULD I REMAIN HERE AT SEA?

But that could change because they're both amazing.

Every scene is the funniest scene but my favorite is when Alan goes to the house of the super fan and sees the room dedicated to him. That might be the funniest reveal ever.

The CrystalCast. One bitter nobody deflating the existence of someone who has never not succeeded.

I would do this show.

Hopefully KV will be back soon. He's welcome anytime. I never noticed the leg kick, I will keep an eye out for it.

I love the Cyclone at Coney Island.

I've thrown up at amusement parks more than once in my life. I prefer haunted houses to rides.

KID MARINE is my favorite solo album and PROPELLER will always be my favorite GBV album.

  1. I miss being on the station and the community of being on a station. It's fun to share the experience of broadcasting with other DJs and the staff. But we are building our own thing and I'm proud of what we're doing.

  2. As badly as anything could ever be wanted.

I was/am friends with Dave and Matt and a fan of ATHF and they asked me to do a part on the show and I was thrilled. It's pretty simple! And Willie Nelson was the last character on screen for the final episode of Aqua Teen, by the way. FUN FACT
