Ralph Garman - Hollywood Babble-On

Hollywood Babble-On

In August 2010, Garman and Smith started recording Hollywood Babble-On at Smith's SModcastle theater; the podcast was subsequently moved to the larger capacity Jon Lovitz Podcast Theatre, formerly known as the Jon Lovitz Comedy Club. The show discusses current events happening in Hollywood, and includes segments such as Tinseltown Stiffs (where recently deceased Hollywood celebrities are discussed), Shit That Should Not Be (an exposure of errors made on set or in production on a finished piece), Exquisite Acting (similar to the previous, except exposing poorly delivered performances by actors/actresses), Hollywood Helper (where the pair point out acts of helpfulness or charity amongst the show business crowd) and Movies That Will Suck (which predicts upcoming productions that tout a lackluster premise, usually revolving around needless sequels or remakes). Each show also finishes with their favoured entries submitted by members of the public from the Tumblr account Liam Neeson's Cock (a page dedicated to fictitious claims originally based on Janice Dickinson's comparison of Liam Neeson's penis to an Evian bottle). When discussing current events with Smith, Garman will also perform impressions of famous actors such as Harrison Ford, Al Pacino, Charlton Heston, Adam West, Truman Capote, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ed Wynn and Sylvester Stallone. Fans of the show have created an informal drinking game (mostly centered around Garman's phrase "How dare you, sir?" and Smith's overuse of the word "whatnot"), which the hosts have mentioned approvingly.
