"Last night I came so hard I almost shit the bed." That's a conversational gem from Bob Odenkirk's feature film directing debut Melvin Goes to Dinner. The talky, sex-drenched comedy is currently making the rounds of the film festival circuit before its anticipated DVD debut in December. With Melvin on the horizon plus three new DVDs and a coffee table book currently in stores, the actor-writer-director may be the hardest working comic standing.
Odenkirk is best known as David Cross's unrepentant partner on HBO's take-no-prisoners cult hit Mr. Show (and its feature film spin-off Run Ronnie Run!). There the duo created such ballsy sketches as the Hail Satan cable network and an integrated Ku Klux Klan recruitment video. The uninitiated few who don't know Bob from Mr. Show might recognize him as Garry Shandling's spastic agent (and Janeane Garofalo's smug boyfriend) Stevie Grant from The Larry Sanders Show or as a cast member from the short-lived Ben Stiller Show.
From the cell phone in his car -- not unlike his abrasive alter ego Stevie Grant -- the Emmy Award-winning Saturday Night Live writer talked to Playboy.com about splooshing, theme park sex and losing it to
a garbage bag in his backyard.
1. You have six brothers and sisters. With them always around, how did you ever manage to lose your virginity?
Bob Odenkirk: Does masturbation count? How about if a Playboy's involved? It came out of a lawn and leaf bag that was in a forest behind my house, and I made a donation.
2. What's the most unusual place you've ever done it?
BO: Goddammit. All my surprising situations were masturbating. One time I was on an amusement park ride and I jerked off. It was on the Small World ride in Disneyland. I think I was in Alaska. There were a lot of Eskimos around singing that song.
3. What is the most memorable sexual experience you've ever had?
BO: Last night with my wife. I think it was my wife. Somebody's wife. Seriously, the most memorable sexual experience? The night I came in somebody else's pants.
4. Do you like to talk dirty when you're having sex?
BO: Oh, yeah. I say things like "dammit." And "darn it." And "oh, shoot." And "fudge." I say "cockamamie." I say anything I want. I go crazy.
