While attendingOrange Coast CollegeinCosta Mesa,he and fellow studentB. J. Porterbegan writing together when they were both scripting and performing in a radio show calledLutz Radio.[5]

[edit]

After a brief period studying at thePacific Conservatory of the Performing Artsand touring the country as a musical theater actor, in 1995, at the request of his friends, Aukerman and Porter started performing atThe Comedy StoreinLos Angelesunder the moniker "The Fun Bunch", a name meant to parodyimprovisationgroups at the time.[5]

Mr. Showco-creatorBob Odenkirkwas in the audience for the second performance, and soon tapped the duo to write for and occasionally perform on the show in its fourth season. This led to anEmmynomination in 1999 for Aukerman and the rest of the staff. Aukerman appeared sporadically on the show, most notably as the model Theo Brixton in the Taint Magazine sketch.

After the show's cancellation, Aukerman and Porter segued into writing film and television scripts, most notablyRun Ronnie Run!and the first draft of the filmTenacious D in The Pick of Destiny.In 2004, he and Porter received an "Additional Dialogue" credit on the animated feature filmShark Tale.They went on to write an unproduced script for the sequel, as well as an unproducedShrekspin-off film based on the characterPuss in Boots.In 2007, a feature film script he wrote with Porter and Odenkirk, titledKanan Rhodes: Unkillable Servant of Justice,was purchased byMTV Filmswith the intent of starringRainn Wilson,although it currently remains unproduced.[7]Also in 2007, Aukerman released a self-described "joke record",Scott Aukerman's Koo Koo Roo's Greatest Hits,which featured Aukerman andSarah Silverman Programwriter Jon Schroeder shouting over current soft-rock hits. This was put out in limited release on AST Records.

In 2009, Aukerman and Porter wrote a pilot script for NBC, titledPrivates.The network ultimately passed on the show.[8]That year, Aukerman took on the role as head writer for the2009 MTV Movie Awardsand executive produced and co-wrote a pilot forComedy Central,The New Andy Dick Show.The network ultimately passed on ordering it to series.

In 2010, Aukerman wrote a feature film script for friendZach Galifianakisfor Fox, and he andPatton Oswaltco-wrote a television pilot for Fox, which the network ultimately passed on. Later that year, Aukerman joined a "writers lab", writing film scripts forImagine Entertainment.[9]

A short film made for the show,Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis,eventually moved to internet siteFunny Or Die,becoming one of its most successful series.

[edit]

Earwolf

[edit]

In 2010, based upon the success of his podcast, Aukerman, along with Jeff Ullrich, started the Earwolf network, eventually producing and releasing several podcasts. In 2011, they announced a partnership withFunny Or Die.[26]In 2014, they launched a sister networkWolfpop,under the curation of comedianPaul Scheer.[27]On March 7, 2016, the majority of Wolfpop's programs were folded over into Earwolf.

Podcasts with Adam Scott

[edit]

Aukerman has a long-standing friendship with American actorAdam Scott,who first appeared onComedy Bang Bang!in 2010 and also appeared in multiple episodes of the TV adaptation.[28]Though having appeared on over a dozen episodes as a guest, Scott is best known on the podcast for his episodes alongsideParks and RecreationwritersChelsea PerettiandHarris Wittels,which were dubbedFarts and Procreation.FourFartsepisodes were recorded, with the final being posthumously released in 2015 following Wittels' death.[29]Aukerman and Scott bonded over their love of both comedy and music, and have since launched multiple music-based comedy podcasts about various bands and artists.

The pair's first podcast was calledU Talkin' U2 To Me?Launched in 2014, it was ostensibly devoted to the career and discography of the bandU2.Most episodes combined discussion of the band with running gags and comedy bits only marginally related to the band.[30]The podcast ultimately led to Aukerman and Scott interviewing the band themselves,[31]as well as being invited to see them live.[32]Following a review ofSongs of Experiencein 2017,[33]the podcast became more infrequent. Three episodes were released in 2018: A "Slowin' It Down" withPhoebe RobinsonandAndy Daly,and a two-part recap of theExperience + Innocence Tour.The podcast returned in 2023 for two episodes, where Aukerman and Scott reviewed the compilationSongs of Surrenderas well as the band's Las Vegas live showU2:UVAchtung BabyLive at Sphere.[34][35]

In 2018, Aukerman and Scott started a new podcast calledR U Talkin' R.E.M. RE: ME?,focused on the bandR.E.M.[36][37]This podcast also led to Aukerman and Scott interviewing members of the band, such asMichael StipeandMike Mills,[38]as well as a guest appearance fromPeter Buckat a live episode for Clusterfest.[39]

Aukerman and Scott began a new podcast in July 2020,R U Talkin' RHCP RE: Me?[40]The podcast's intention was to cover the music of theRed Hot Chili Peppers,focusing on the band'sself-titled debutandFreaky Styleyin the first episode. This format, however, was abandoned in the show's second episode. Instead, the duo chose to focus onTalking Heads,changing the podcast name toU Talkin' Talking Heads 2 My Talking Headand going throughthe band's discographyfor the remainder of 2020.[41]They eventually reprised theR U Talkin' RHCPformat for two episodes in 2022, coveringUnlimited LoveandReturn of the Dream Canteen.[42]

In September 2023, Aukerman and Scott returned with their first new format in three years:U Springin' Springsteen On My Bean?The podcast is dedicated to the music ofBruce Springsteen.The first episode of the show, released on September 12, covered Springsteen's 1973 debut albumGreetings from Asbury Park, N.J.[34]

Aukerman and Scott have also occasionally produced one-off editions of the podcast. During early episodes ofU Talkin' U2 To Me?,Aukerman and Scott began a running joke of singing theStaindsong "It's Been Awhile"whenever they said the titular phrase – often pairing it with the opening line ofBarenaked Ladies' "One Week".A fan onTwittersuggested the pair create a one-off format entitledStaind Glass,in which they discuss the music of Staind with comedianTodd Glass.This came to fruition in May 2014, with Glass joining the pair in the studio to listen to the band's 2001 albumBreak the Cycle.In June 2018, Glass returned to the show for a sequel episode.[43]That same year,Vulturedubbed the originalStaind Glassas the best episode ofU Talkin' U2 To Me?– noting that "no episode better exemplifies, while slightly subverting, the bit-heavy, irony-drenched humor" of the show.[44]In 2020, the pair created a one-off version of the format entitledYouey Talkin' Huey 2ey Me?,with special guestsHuey LewisandJimmy Kimmel.The episode was dedicated to the music ofHuey Lewis and the News,to promote the band's albumWeather.[45]

Artistry

[edit]

Aukerman's work has been described as "gloriously silly,"[46]and "masterful comedy and improvisation."[47]Although Tom Lennon's first reaction to the initial episode ofComedy Bang Bangwas "no one’s going to listen to this,"[48]Aukerman has since been lauded as the ringleader of a podcast that is, according to Vulture, "a consistent circus of experimentation by some of comedy’s most creative minds."[48]His influence on contemporary comedy, by way of highlighting emerging talent, has earned him the title of "the alternativeLorne Michaels."[49]

Personal life

[edit]
