Rachel Maddow Mentions Mr. Bungle

Liberal political commentator, Rachel Maddow, mentioned Mr. Bungle on her MSNBC show yesterday.

She was talking about disambiguation and Wikipedia. If you type in “Vanity Fair,” she says, “You can find an entry on the magazine, or the book… or Mr. Bungle’s Vanity Fair, which isn’t their best work…”

I haven’t found a clip of this online yet, but if someone finds one, please send it along and I’ll attach it to this post.

Many thanks to Steve Hart for providing the context in which the band was mentioned.

Update: Allan Sheard sent over the URL to the video.  The mention comes within the first minute or so.

    She’s on drugs. Vanity Fair is one of the tunes that turned me on to Bungle!

    Sorry to mention this here, but I don’t know where else to look? Anyone know where I can find the set list for the SC3 dvd. I didn’t even know it existed. Need to know if I need to rush out and get it immediately or should I order it online. (No SC3 News on CV?) Thanks

    Love Rachel! This was probably written by one her writers. So if you must …slap the writers.

    Although I think it’s an ok song, I must say she’s right, it’s not one of their bes works. Maybe she should’ve pointed to the Disco Volante disambiguation page, and there she could say it’s their best work.

    My favourite Bungle song or perhaps equal favourite, with Retrovertigo…

    hey crackhitler, watch your mouth you goon. i think rachel was probably just trying to sound cool, and probably doesn’t listen to mr bungle. but I wrote her an email suggesting a few hot numbers.

    My vote goes with “she was just trying to look cool and isn’t really a Bungle fan”.

    She’s a twat. “Probably not what you were looking for.” She needs a kick in the tit.
