Cort McCown invited Steve Rannazzisi and me to his apartment to talk about his old days as a Hollywood heartthrob. He had some crazy times when he was younger. He boned women I could only dream of. And a few of them that I actually did dream of.

Episode Extras

 

Man, I forgot how sweet this movie was. “You shit on my house!”

 

Cort McCown doing standup at the Improv who knows when. He’s calm here because after 10 years, the coke had all left his system.

 

Can’t Buy Me Love reunion. Aaah, good times.

 

Cort’s IMDB. Blackballed for a decade until Rannazzisi got him on The League

 

The Music

I heard Sheryl Crow’s “Greatest Mistake” was about when she boned Eric Clapton. And this was prime Sheryl Crow, not that cougar version that dated Lance Armstrong.

 

Seeger – Hollywood nights

 

I think this is the only song I can think of where they used sniffing as a musical instrument.

 

RIP Bianca. I didn’t get into Betty Blowtorch until after she had died and the band had broken up but man, they were fucking awesome. If you can find the album, absolutely get it. I’m telling you.
