[Tenbatsuzen]

Can you really unmask someone who's 26 and been steadily working in movies since his teens?

[Reynolds]

It's Rogen... r o g E n

[Sue_Bender]

Another comedy legend!

[Tenbatsuzen]

BTW, Mikey, you forgot the Pineapple Express plug.

[Reynolds]

Editing cheater... Might as well remove my reply now.

[ChrisTheCop]

Or make a comment to make you look silly.

Yes. Yes it is.....:wacko:

[Friday]

Another comedy legend!

:lol:

[ADF]

I'm a fan of Mr. Rogen. I'll be there.

[ChrisTheCop]

Another comedy legend!

Ha, indeed.

And both recent guests are stoners, or at least stoner faves.
(didnt Ron recently say Chong would show up at anything to promote legal pot? Coincidence? Probably not, but still....)
I dunno...ever since Gene Wilder, which I was all booked and ready to show,
it's been downhill. and now I'll post something for the booking agents to read:

Rogen and Chong??!!! COOOOLLLL DUUUUUUDEEE!!!!!!!!!

[TheGameHHH]

i really wish i could make this one, i think he's hilarious

[watson]

never trust canadians

[Sue_Bender]

I do think Mr. Rogen is funny. It just doesn't seem like there's enough work behind him for this format.

[LILLY]

Please email me at xmunmasked@gmail.com for the Tommy Chong Unmasked requests

Seth Rogen requests should be emailed to live@xmradio.com

Thank you!

[JustJon]

Too bad I have to work. Would love to go to both.

[docgoblin]

They gotta make these later in the day for us working folk!

What time is the Tommy Chong Unmasked?

Sorry. I'll fix that.

4:00 pm.

[Tenbatsuzen]

4:00 pm.

So it'll get really interesting about 20 minutes in, then?

I agree he certainly does not have the career yet that the other Unmasked guests have had. However, the most interesting part of the Unmaskeds are how they got into the business and how they got ahead in the business. Also, I think it is good to have this type of interview early in his career, so then if he does go on to have a long prolific career you can go back and see how he was at the beginning of his stardom.

Boo. Thanks XM for commercializing a great program. I'm sure we'll all enjoy an hour of pot jokes Ron has to just accept and politely laugh at as opposed to a brilliant experienced comic that Ronnie could get some real entertainment value out of.

I am sure (publicists might read this) that Ron will do a fantastic job (they may not book other guests) with the talented Seth Rogen. (Please don't sabotage the buddies for what you think is their principles.)

[TheMojoPin]

Seth Rogen is hysterical and already at this point has plenty to talk about. Been on and wrote for two classic cult TV shows, did and still does standup, writes and stars in fucking awesome movies. He's perfect for this.

...

I think I want to marry Seth Rogen.

[Chip Vaughn]

4:00 pm.

Too bad I live in the central time zone, that's like 2:30 here

[The Jays]

How long ago was it announced? I just saw the bulletin on MySpace, I wish I hadn't missed the announcement, I woulda went. Darn it!

[jauble]

You haven't missed it. linky (http://www.ronfez.net/forums/showthread.php?t=71915&highlight=Seth+Rogen)

[Serpico1103]

Has anyone heard back from Xm about tickets for Seth Rogen's Unmasked?

[King Hippos Bandaid]

am trying to switch days


I will be pissed if I miss this

[mikeyboy]

It didn't get announced on the show because they didn't get confirmation until after Friday's show ended.

The show is Wednesday. You can still go.

[The Jays]

Ok, cool. When I saw it, I got all flustered, but then I realized I'd just be taken a few hours off of work to see it. I apologize for my double thread. Please forgive me. :glurps:

[mikeyboy]

So who's in? I'm going to try to make it.

[Serpico1103]

I will be lurking in the background.

[ADF]

So who's in? I'm going to try to make it.

I got my confirmation a couple of hours ago.

[DreamWeaver]

I'll be there if I don't get lost.

[Furtherman]

Seth Rogen! Wow, he's still alive?

[JerseyRich]

I'll be there...

We should all wear Jew-fro wigs as a sign of solidarity.

[Friday]

if someone wants to pick me up or buy me a train ticket i will go. lol

otherwise... enjoy!

[Sheila]

awwwww Friday, I was actually thinking of going and ended up not, too much stuff to do.. I'll definitely let you know for the next time I can go, since we are in the same neighborhood, if you don't mind riding in the soccer mom mini-van...

[mikeyboy]

I went. It was good.

[drjoek]

I went. It was good.

Wow what a rave review! I can't wait to hear it:blink:

[RAAMONE]

Wow what a rave review! I can't wait to hear it:blink:

if he gave a rave review nobody here would listen

[EliSnow]

I went. It was good.

Was it so good that you would talk about it with your SoHo friends?

[mikeyboy]

No, seriously -- I really did enjoy it. Rogen doesn't have the long, storied comedy career of some of the Unmasked guests, but he was funny, and it was interesting to hear someone interviewed from a different place in their career.

[One Dead Fred]

I got there a little late, but it was really cool. I didn't expect the complimentary back rub in the men's room, but "when in Rome..."

Seth seemed like a cool guy and Mr. Bennington was really sharp! Now I have to see the movie.

[Ay Kay Forty2]

Loved when Seth Rogen and Ronnie B. were just riffing on certain things.

[AnnoyedGrunt]

I'm guessing this is going to air on the weekend since the movie opens today?

[boonanas]

It was good, but it wasn't very informative. Funny, though.

[The Jays]

Holy shit did that interview kick ass. Maybe it's because it was my first UnMasked, but that was funny fucking shit. And at times, I forgot that Seth Rogen is actually right in front of me, it started feeling like I'm watching a TV show or something. That dude is a funny mother fucker, and Ron works his magic like he's fucking Blackstone. And Fez knows how to warm up a crowd. That was totally worth the two hours I took off from work to see it.

[JerseyRich]

BAD NEWS BAD NEWS!!!


Went to see Pineapple Express this afternoon...


Not good. Don't waste your money. Seth Rogen is a funny fucker...especially in this interview, but this movie IS NOT FUNNY.

I hate to say it.

[ADF]

That was a good interview. Ron always gets the best out of his guest. Even though Seth was most likely unfamiliar with the show, there seemed to be a level of respect given to Ron that really endowed the interview with a sense of comradery that made it much funnier than other Seth Rogen interviews I've seen.

Yes, it'll be on Saturday night on 150 at 8 est with a replay Sunday afternoon on 202 at 2.

[TheMojoPin]

GOOD NEWS, EVERYBODY.

Pineapple Express is hysterical. I understand that there wasn't any crossdressing in it to appeal to Rich's British "comedy," but it's really goddamn funny.

They probably didn't play the Benny Hill music and chase each other really fast either.

Oh man...you're right! I didn't even think of that!

I don't know... Radio on a saturday? I've got shit to do...

I went. It was good.

Ok, I'm sold.

[jauble]

unmasked time

[MisterSmith]

"No." :lol:

I can just imagine sheepy's/joe's face after that (because I probably would have made the same one). :laugh:

[jauble]

good interview, very funny

[hammersavage]

anyway this can be PM'ed to me or put in the file library, eh? i love seth rogen but dont have my inno currently.

[PapaBear]

I thought it was pretty good, but did anyone else think he came off as kind of a jerk? That's how I felt in the first 10 minutes or so.

[midwestjeff]

Yeah, I noticed that too.
