The Flavor Bin, Episode 9 - ‘The Hiatus Is Over’

Tue, 30 Jul 2019 21:42:17 -0700

The Flavor Bin returns. Colby and Bill don't seem too different despite the ample time they've had to grow and evolve since the last episode. Colby's uncle, Neil Lebowitz, a comedy writer during the 70s/80s, talks about working with Robin Williams, and opens a can of worms with a wild tale of another writer’s costly misstep leaving 'Seinfeld' before the show took off. Editor Eric Freidenberg talks about his work on Netflix's show ‘Chef's Table’, and David Byrne of the Talking Heads reveals some methods he used in creating the underground classic album ‘My Life In The Bush of Ghosts’ with Brian Eno. Topics include karaoke, hoarding collectables, talking Goose Gossage with Phillip Leeds, disaster prep with Hollywood agent Will Ward, Bob Fosse, etc., and of course - FLAVORCULES.

Flavor Flashback! Editing the new FLAVOR BIN was interrupted by the release of ‘Once Upon A Time in Hollywood’, and while we regret any delay, the movie was fantastic and we can’t stop talking about it this weekend. Colby wanted to repost his chat with Quentin Tarantino, so here’s a revisit to the rapid-fire discussion about a classic era in French cinema.

Also a visit to L.A.’s Umami Burger, and a middle of the night hang at 7/11.
