Sup Doc RETURNS to SF Sketchfest! With hosts Paco Romane and George Chen for a special FREE event with panelist Cory Sklar (Illogical Contraption), Emily Van Dyke, and Frankie G (Killing My Lobster, Narcissists Anonymous) and Melissa McQueen (The World Famous Comedy Store, Hollywood Improv Comedy Club)

Last year’s Sketchfest show was awesome and we’re back for more! We screened the cult “found footage” short Memorial Day 2000 and then turned the mics on our panel to dissect, debate and discuss with hilarious results. Topics include our own youthful indiscretions, Juggalos, Springer, Faygo, Warped Tour, Northern Cities Vowel Shift, what constitutes a documentary, camping fails, and much more. We even get to hear Paco play piano.

Paco and George sit down with comedian Bert DiVietri to talk about his favorite documentary The Death of “Superman Lives”: What Happened? Director Jon Schnepp’s 2015 film looks at the infamous Tim Burton reboot of Superman starring Nicholas Cage, which never got made. We talk to Bert about DC vs. Marvel, fantasy casting, Kevin Smith, Jon Peters’s headlocks, fandom, and more. You can find the film at http://www.tdoslwh.com and it’s also available on Showtime.

On EP 47 host Paco Romane talks about his favorite docs he watched in 2016, goes thru listener mail and provides some important details about our LIVE SF Sketchfest, the San Francisco Comedy Festival show on January 29th! And as always Paco, George Chen and Will Scovill would like to say THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!! You’ve made 2016 our best year yet! And as always Sup Doc is a 100% self-funded, volunteer labor of love. We want nothing more than to have ad free shows! To make that happen we created a Patreon page for those that can help out. We will also be providing unique Sup Doc content for our contributors. You can contribute as little as $1 a month! If now is not good for you we always appreciate you listening and spreading the word about Sup Doc! https://www.patreon.com/supdocpodcast
