And I noticed the Rob alias too. At first I thought it was a hilarious coincidence, but then I remembered that, unless I'm mistaken, he and Rob were childhood friends. They lost touch for a while but ran into each other again at just the right time.
OK, that's both funny and cool.
Holy shit, he was in Hobgoblins !!
And he did the voice of Gollum in some version of the HOBBIT from 2003.
I regret to inform you that evidently Mallard Fillmore, the never-funny right wing duck of the comic strips, is supposedly a big fan of the show. Sortof a "Hitler was a vegetarian?" kind of news.

Yeah, I almost did a spit take when I read that on Monday (I read every single strip in the Globe daily, even the ones that make me want to beat the cartoonist with a rolled up newspaper until they bleed from the eyes).
Well, none of the characters are overtly Jewish. That would surely set the Mallard Fillmore guy off.

Oddly tying it all together:

really? i did not know that. how neat! RT is good to his friends.
I think he mentioned it in his pilot commentary.
He also shouts out to his friend Jennings Crawford in, like, everything.
Here we have the first scene with Cliff McCormack, played by Daran Norris, who I am so pleased with and proud of and...for those who don't know, Daran and I had been friends since we were three years old. And we fell out of touch for....we were both in Washington state; I moved to Texas; we fell out of touch from ages 10 to 24. And then my band came to L.A. to play when I was twenty-four years old, and I heard Daran was working as an actor in L.A., and I looked him up and we reconnected.
I have yet to get around to listening to the commentary. maybe one of these years.
I think Daran is probably my favorite non-credited cast member. very close second is Michael Muhney.
You have to listen! He gives me a shout-out!
