Show Summary:

I hadn't heard this show since it originally aired and I couldn't remember why these guys were so hated by Ace and Drew.

For the first 20 minutes the guys seemed pretty cool then they claimed they were religious and couldn't handle the content of the show and they needed to leave.

Then they went to the parking lot and eventually decided to come back, the guys are total pricks and they kept derailing the show.

Bobcat Goldthwait is fantastic though, he is very funny and apparently he was the manager for the Aquabats as well as the director of their music videos.

    I don’t really see how they’re derailing the show, they’re being pretty quiet. Bobcat is yapping constantly and the aquabats cuts in with their cryptic talk every now and then but they’re being pretty quiet during the calls and all that so.. good show. Bobcat is a chatter to say the least.

    good show, should be labeled as a Bobcat Goldthwait appearance.

    i wasn’t familiar with the Aquabats before hearing this. from all i’ve read, they are pretty nutty.
    it seems like they could have taken this opportunity to really let loose and get goofy.

    but i guess their comedy is too scripted.

    no loss – we just get more Bobscratch Goldfarb talk. yow!

    The Aquabats were given several chances to redeem themselves, but refused to drop the retarded superhero personas. This was a fantastic show only because Adam and Bob are so goddamned funny when poking fun at the band.

    I’m kind of meh on the aquabats…don’t seem to be any more annoying than run of the mill annoying guests. In fact I would put them at marginally more annoying than Bobcat, and marginally less funny.

    The problem with this ep is if, like myself, you prefer when the bulk of the show is dedicated to abusing the retarded callers, broken up by the occasional rant.

    Conversations with b/c/d celebrities about what they were up to 10-15 years ago really hurt the guest episodes (with the exception of the somewhat rare guests who are interested in callers and have something to say). I mean this is basically 45 mins of show, 45 mins of “Keeping up with Bobcat and the Aquabats”

    As far as I can tell the AquaBats use this big AquaBat/AquaBania metaphor to avoid talking about their Mormonism, which is strangely an uncomfortble topic to them. Pretty funny that the very first call was about a guy getting $20 blowjobs at a party and the Aquabats freaked out and left hahaha.

  6. deepsnare

    It’s odd. They were my whole world when I was 13, and one of the first and greatest ska shows I ever saw. Later I found out they were ultra-religious and felt kinda like I had been betrayed. I’m not hardcore anti religion, it’s just…strange. Misleading somehow. I guess that’s Orange County for ya.

  7. Stung

    Adam really hyped the Aquabats for a few episodes prior to this and early on in this episode as well. Pretty funny how the tide turned so rapidly as Adam/Drew later clearly hate these guys.

  8. MoreAnimalThanMan

    Ignore the comments saying this is bad, this is waaaaaaay better than the rating it gets. Aquabats leave during the first call but they come back after the next break and Adam tells them to speak up if something bothers them about the content, hilariously this doesn’t stop Adam from taking cringe-worthy calls after a few weaker ones and for the rest of the show the Aquabats are pretty quiet, randomly interjecting with tidbits to callers like “write a letter to them” and Bobcat essentially speaks for them most of the show. Many great interactions with Adam and Bobcat, very worth a listen.

    Also, I’d kill to have a microphone in the bathroom to hear what Drew and Adam were saying during breaks about them. Amazing show.

    I understand why Adam hated this show. He’s herding cats. The Aquabats and Bob are all over the place. He’s struggling just to keep the ship afloat. It’s an occasionally interesting show. Adam hates the callers and many deserve it. 3 stars. Probably 2 stars content-wise but an extra star for the sheer “f—k it we’ll do it live” energy.
