With such a prolific output on Scott Aukerman’s Earwolf podcast “Comedy Bang! Bang!”, second only to Paul F. Tompkins (not counting the hundreds of times Reggie Watts has visited to sing the opening theme), compiling the Top Ten Lauren Lapkus guest appearances, based on volume of laughs, brilliance of improvisation or quirkiness of characterisation is just too challenging.

Fortunately, working it out mathematically is easy, for Lauren has created exactly ten characters who’ve been on “Comedy Bang! Bang!” three times or more (with a combined 80 appearances between them), perfect for a Lauren Lapkus Top Ten, ranked by their number of visits, here in their debuts (on “Comedy Bang! Bang” that is, one of the characters originating on the podcast “With Special Guest Lauren Lapkus"). This video features the top five most-frequently appearing Lauren characters.

As the episodes have been edited to highlight her work on each, much has been left on the cutting room floor. For the entire shows and every other CBB, including more than 100 live episodes (and 30 MORE Lauren Lapkus characters!), subscribe to Stitcher Premium. I am not a representative of Stitcher or Earwolf and neither has endorsed this video. I can’t believe after ten years, Scott, his podcast and his guests are not more well-known. I hope these videos remedy that a little. I think “Comedy Bang! Bang!” is also available through the “Widow Howl app“, but I get my CBB from Stitcher Premium, which I recommend as it also includes content from other networks as well as Earwolf, producer of most of my favourites.

To make dipping into this Lauren sampler easy, I have listed time code for each segment below. To keep it surprising, I haven’t listed WHICH characters you’ll hear when you click those links.
