Well, hello there. Didn’t see you come in. Please, let me take your coat for you. Get comfortable. Good. Now, help yourself to some Cherry Spitz podcast!
On this episode, Lars realizes he is becoming an old fart, Erik comes face to face with a beast so ferocious, I will not spoil it here ( listen to his tale of woe and prepare to be amazed he lived to tell it!) Marlene recounts her recent run in with another vehicle, I had an interesting reaction to seeing Jon Hamm in person, and I also do what I do best: give amazing advice.
Hi! Want some of my bread? We're friends!
I WILL EAT YOUR SOUL! ACCEPT ME AS YOUR GOD!
Here it is folks. Get them while they’re hot! You only have one year left before the world ends!

Erik is fed up with the way things have been going on the show and is demanding more of his fellow Spitzers. Hopefully Shaun Lewin can rub off a bit of mojo to save the day. We also have a “Cherry Spat” over somebody’s psycho-fuck of a roommate, touch on how Juggalos bury their young and then the gang re-enacts one of Blaire’s dreams.
A special mystery guest may or may not stop by. I don’t know.

Hey folks. Unearth the final chapter in the great Improv Cup/ Wedding saga. The over-partied crew gathers at Catbus Headquarters recap the 2011 Improv Cup and the inevitable year’s worth of gloating champion James Stebick will naturally rain down upon us. Oh, and I got married. Also, one superfan gives us all notes. We don’t know the meaning of constructive criticism!
Huge apologies to the sound quality on this one. We we’re all pretty post-event retarded on this episode. Also, we need some edit-savvy interwebber to add sound to this little pre-wedding jig performed moments before my nuptials:

The Cherry Spitz Podcast is dropping a double dose this week, centered around the events of Lars’ wedding and the OC Improv Cup.
First up, Matt, Erik, Blaire and KC Wayland pile into the Prius and head on down to Lars’ wedding. Songs are sung, stakes are raised and Matt stops a crime so heinous, your ears will crap themselves.

Prepare yourself for the most mind-blowing episode of the Cherry Spitz podcast ever.
"Here's your Foreigner album back."
On this week’s podcast Lars, Marlene and myself (James!) hunker down in Catbus Studio’s smokiest bunker to discuss aliens, conspiracy theories and everything in between. It may seem scary but we at Cherry Spitz are here to hold your hand as we all wade into the intellectual and superscientific deep end. If you remember and/or loved the classic 90′s Fox TV show, “Sightings,” then you will enjoy this episode.
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
Topics covered include transdimensional beings, higher consciousness, George Noory, the healing power of magic rocks, Ben Franklinbot, the future of our planet, lady boners, convention panel etiquette, plus Marlene went to the Conscious Life Expo and lost faith in her beloved Ancient Aliens host, Giorgio Tsoukalos.
Look closely. He has a picture of himself on his t-shirt.
Ladies and gentlemen, our next episode is a damn good one. It’s our big IMPROV CUP results show! We break down the 2011 Orange County Improv Cup; plus Lars got married and a very special superfan has notes for all of us. Tune in next week!
[And please send us your guesses for what the opposite of a bat might be.]
Ladies and gentlemen, after a few short weeks that I’m sure must have felt like an eternity for you all, it is my honor to welcome you to SEASON 5 of the Cherry Spitz Podcaaaaaaast!
In our never-ending quest to find new and creative ways of bringing our awesomeness to you beautiful people this episode was the first we ever livestreamed online. It was ten kinds of rad and special thanks go out to all those who were listening live and chatting with us on our website (Alex, Austin, Caitlin, Daniel, Graham, and “Maggie”). If you missed out on listening live don’t kill yourself just yet, we will most definitely be doing a live podcast again. We had Thundergoat Studios pretty packed on this episode with Blaire, Lars, Kat, Erik and myself. (Even We’re Alive creator KC Wayland and friend of the group Joe Foster wander in!)

What did you miss by not listening live? Well how about a detailed and thoughtful analysis of the 2011 OC Improv Cup. We talk a little trash, dish a little gossip, and do our best to undermine the confidence of all of our competitors. PLUS we reveal which Improv Cup referee is actually an inhuman demon who kills people and turns them into beer. The answer may surprise you! (Or maybe not.)
Follow along at home. Eyes on your own workbook.
Then Lars tells us about the time he met a mad Russian in the desert, and tries to recall what happened at his bachelor party the night before.
The liquor had drunkened him something powerful.
And as if all of this wasn’t enough already, we are happy to announce the Cherry Spitz Hotline! That’s right, you can call us up any old time you feel like us and leave a voice mail with all of your comments, questions, and limitless praise. Leave us something good and we’ll be sure to use it in a podcast.
THE CHERRY SPITZ HOTLINE: (909) 54-SPITZ
Now accepting your love and judgment over the phone.
G’day! Who wants to hear a classic episode of the Cherry Spitz Podcast?!?
Everyone knows that our amazing podcast is all the talk of the salons. It’s a well known fact. But before we were the staple of the internet we are today we used to be a fledgling internet talk show blazing our way across the cyber frontier. Since we’re still in between seasons of the show I thought I should repost a classic episode from our younger years.

“Return to Ringpop Island” (Episode 18) was originally posted in early November 2009 as part of, I don’t know, let’s say Season 2 of the podcast. Recorded at the now rarely used Downey (D-House) studio the episode features Lars Hansen, a young Matt Apodaca, and myself along with Spitz alumni Tim Gale and friend of the team Tyler/”Lyla”. We discuss candy, Star Wars, the best way to do cocaine, junk talk, some Christopher Walken impressions, and terrible ideas coming soon from Hollywood. Plus if you really want the full retro experience check out the original post on our old website.
My best friends, James and Erik came over and we did lots of fun things:
I ordered pizza!
We played Fuck, Chuck, or Marry!
We watched a really fun movie: Twilight!
We played Truth or Dare!
And I made Popcorn!
James was a grump, as usual. Oh, James. He’s really nice when he’s not complaining. You’d like him.
I think Erik likes me… or maybe just my doggie, Brownie.
That’s it for now. I’ll tell you more later.
KISSES.

Listening to the Cherry Spitz podcast can feel a lot like having a hand up your ass, so really, it’s fitting to finally have a puppet on as a guest. James and Erik break down puppet life with Puppet Mayhem’s very own Kromp! Notable human Michael Rosenbaum also stops by to talk about the OC improv scene!
All the while, Erik learns a life lesson, we meet new addition to the show – Thundertron, and then we start to censor a bunch of stuff!
Let’s Cha Cha!

Hi everybody! Matt here, bringing you the latest episode of the Cherry Spitz podcast. Wait a sec…this episode…tastes funny…smells funny too…GUH GUH GASP! This episode is a few weeks old! Don’t worry, a little expired podcast won’t hurt you that bad.
Erik shares an intimate tale involving THIS MAN.
On this episode, we recall some of our past shows, discuss Kat’s other podcasting habits, I do amazing impressions, tell great stories and annoy James, Phil Hartman, Erik recounts his Andy Dick tale, and Black Rob stops by! Oh and we interrupt the hell out of each other.
This is the image that comes up when you Google "interrupting".
Here it is folks, your Cherry Spitz Podcast! Put it in your earholes. Go ahead, we won’t tell nobody.

A true honor to perform on a stage that looks just like home!
Today on a very special podcast, James, Lars, and the rare Glamazon known only as Blaire come to you LIVE in front of a amazing audience at STAGES Theater in Fullerton. That’s right, we put on the ritz and pull out all the funnybone stops (that sounds delightfully painful). The gang also welcomes Brother Daniel and the Black Sheep as a live musical guest, bringing you their unique brand of haunting carnival rock. ALSO- Blaire’s fake proposal story, Face or Taint?, and the beloved Star Wars Mad Libs makes another triumphant appearance. So trust your balls people, this one is going to rock them.
That's right, it's that kind of podcast.
Thanks again to all those who stayed up late with us to do a really fun show. If you enjoyed this one, please make a lot of noise about it here and on our Facebook. We’d absolutely love to grace the airwaves with all that hot live action.

On this funky fresh episode, Lars, James and Matt are joined by Miles and Lucca (aka Goofie) of Bonafide Audio just off of their world tour! James tries to conduct a serious interview, discussing all things hip-hop, comedy, and hip-hop-comedy while I misbehave and get sent to the kids table. The H-word is also brought up again and we’re sorry.
Your move...H-words.
Bonafide Audio Tracks!
Check them out on Facebook or Myspace…that’s still a thing, right?
“What the fuck is happening on today’s episode?” -A Sleep-Deprived James Stebick
It’s a skeleton crew on this week’s serving of The Cherry Spitz Podcast with Erik and a half-conscious James. In his lucid stupor, James mentions a topic exiled from the halls of the Cherry Spitz long ago.

Erik confesses a horrific crime!
Mitt Romney is boring.
John Cena can’t be seen – especially in a theater near you!
In this installment, the Cherry Spitz goes back to their fundamental basics of making a big deal of out nothing. Listen as Matt throws conversational wrenches at Marlene and Lars. Kids these days! Humph! We’re all waist deep in Summer and we’re looking to drag you down with us. Other topics include: Marlene’s journey into Florida and our mutual hatred of said state, Lars’ drunk story at CVS, and Matt’s ire for a one Steven Urkel. In more important business, we talk about our slew of upcoming live shows.
