F@#k the City of Los Angeles!!!

March 18th, 2009 . by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Listeners of the show will remember that the City of Los Angeles contacted me a few months back saying I owed a “business tax” for working in the Los Angeles City limits. I contacted them by phone…and got no response. I then e-mailed them and got a response saying that if I didn’t receive any money for business conducted when I was physically in the city limits, I was exempt from this tax…and I should write them a letter to say so. They provided me an address.

As I have yet to receive a dime for performing in the City of Los Angeles, I followed the e-mails instructions, explained my case in a letter, sent it to the address, and thought the whole matter was settled.

Now Mervyn’s…I mean the City of Los Angeles has written me again saying I never responded and now I owe them $4,000! FUCK YOU, LOS ANGELES!!!

Your city has never paid me a dime!!! I contacted you 3 separate ways to straighten it out and now you’re putting the blame on me?! No wonder republicans don’t trust government! You’re not getting a dime out of me just because YOU are incompetent!

The Dumbest Thing I’ve Heard in a While

March 18th, 2009 . by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

I was at my 4th show tonight (none of the 4 shows I would describe as “good”) and there was a drunk douche bag in the crowd (Granted it’s St. Patty’s Day…but still)

The comic on stage was talking about the Octomom. That’s when drunky pipes up, “Ugh…that bitch has been with 8 different dudes.”

Um…what? How much alcohol do yu have to drink to destroy your brian to that degree.

First off, the Octomom is well known to have no man in her life…much less 8. I don’t follow her closely, but I swear I heard she hasn’t had sex in some time.

Second of all…you don’t need 8 guys to make octuplets! The alcohol has broken down his memory of how babies are made! WTF? WTF?!!

My Wishlist for Santa Steve

March 17th, 2009 . by Andy (TANcast's #1 Ear-Rapist)

To Santa Steve,

I know you’re supposed to be announcing the iPhone/iTouchMyselfPod OS 3.0 later today, but I’ve been putting together a list of things I’d like to see fixed, added, improved, and/or changed at some point in the near future, and I wanted to post them before you One More Thing-ed us.

For all I know, half these things are already going to be in OS 3.0 and the rest will be rendered moot by the shining awesomeness that you will boom unto us. Hell, for all I know some of these are already in the product or possible for 3rd-party developers to do now. Still, here they are in no particular order and grouped poorly by general topic. I’ll try to bold all the ones I want most, but I make no promises.

TANcast 041 – Idiot Savant of Tim’s Pain

Play

[CONTENT WARNING] TANcast features mature language and immature hosts. Listener discretion is advised.

After a very brief relapse, this mostly male member-free show features: annoying websites, Andy hating on DirecTV, a little iPhone app talk (gotta have it), Tim complains about private profiles on social networking websites, Tim complains about work e-mails, the boys live dangerously at amusement parks, Tim complains about his car (Tim complains A LOT in this episode…what a whiny bitch!), the boys snap at people, Noah and Tim owe their happiness to OG Steph, and old internet phenomenons are revisited.

But before signing off, the boys manage to talk about Star Trek, Disneyland, Obama, movie spoilers, Andy\’s well wishers, open zippers, Georgia\’s wacky winter weather, the evils of dusk, Taco Bell\’s 4th meal, and walking in on your parents during sex. TANcast: covering more topics when we try to sign off than most podcasts do in a whole show!

Thank you, AOL.

March 12th, 2009 . by Andy (TANcast's #1 Ear-Rapist)

Years ago, America Online flooded everyone’s mailboxes (real ones, not “inboxes”) with floppy diskettes and CDs promising easy access to Teh Intarwebz. Millions bought in, signed up, and logged on. Of those, tens or hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions, were idiots, children, or idiot children.

Human discourse has not been the same since.

Everyone likes to talk about democracy, freedom of expression, and equality in fluffy abstract terms, but a recent stroll through Apple’s App Store for the iPhone and iTouchMyselfPod was a more concrete exploration of what these terms really mean.

Simply put, the democratizing influence of convincing every mouth-breather that their American Life would be best spent on America Online has led to them believing that they should, nay, must make their every opinion known to all their peers surfing the tubes.

Funny Or Die

March 10th, 2009 . by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

So for those who’ve never seen my Kingdom Comedy series on YouTube, I created a bunch of previews for future movies based on Disneyland rides. Well I broke them down to individual videos so that you could watch one without watching all of them. I put them on Funny or Die so if you wanna check ’em out and forward your favorite one(s) to your friends who might like ’em, please feel free 🙂 (Also remember to click “funny”…’cause I don’t wanna die)

Click on any of the titles below to see ’em 😀
