Especially when he found out it was a bomb that would take out a block and Bryan Yells "God drat it, we have no electricity you just had to pirate Ernest goes to Hollywood for the 27th time... again!

DrVenkman posted:I thought Elisabeth Shue was adorable "I've had a very mediocre career" That whole episode was loving awesome, can't wait for part 2. It was interesting to hear Leno say that he never writes, but admits that he should. Also the whole "do your job" thing. Fast forward 10 years later he has a regular 9-5 job with a full writing staff at his disposal. On the other hand, Seinfeld seemed more like Apatow in the sense that they both grew up being huge fans of stand-up. Kinda ironic hearing Seinfeld toy with the idea of a sitcom, saying he was going to try acting, but only to improve his exposure for his stand-up act. I know he got back into stand-up briefly after his show, but I don't think he's done it lately  .

It's one of those weird things that you don't have to agree or disagree with the guy to realize that he's driven by two things: fear and rage, both based on rumors and urban legends. His rant about not wanting to go to Mexico is classic. OK, he doesn't want to go to Mexico. No big deal. But he starts explaining that eating or drinking anything in Mexico will kill you instantly, and even if you refuse to eat or drink anything, you'll be kidnapped and killed by drug cartels. He won't fly in airplanes, he refuses to eat anything other than pizza or fried chicken, him shutting down entirely in Houston... Like the other guy said, I loved Walt's appearances on Smodcast, and even found that honking nerd laugh endearing. But the more I listen to TESD, the more I think there's a deeply disturbed, paranoid mind at work.

Man, I'm so pissed that so many podcasts are coming to Bumbershoot. I live a 10 minute bus ride away from Seattle Center (Ballard). But the problem is there's so many loving people, and it increases every year, yet Seattle won't do anything about it but raise ticket prices. Would I love to see NNF? Garfunkle and Oates? Marc Maron? Everyone that comes with them? gently caress Yeah would! But the truth is you're lucky if you get into anything. I waited five hours to see Harvey Pekar, only to be shouted at by some loving kid "IF YOU'RE BEHIND THIS LINE YOU'RE NOT GETTING IN!! LEAVE!!! NOW!!!" Ok, well too bad I never saw that guy before he died. Fred Armisen is doing a show this afternoon... "WE ARE AT CAPACITY!!! LEAVE NOW! YOU WILL NOT GET INTO THIS SHOW!" Oh thanks, douchebag volunteer. I'm glad I stood here for three hours to get blow-dried by your stupid rear end. Enjoy my 70 bucks. Meanwhile you'll have no trouble getting into these events: The Ankle-Breaking Stroller Parade, The Hippie Drum Circle (x50), The (Outlying Seattle Area) Contingent who think it's fun to come to Seattle and act like assholes, because a ticket means entitlement to act like a loving jerk. Rambling grumble grumble I hate what Bumbershoot has become grumble gruble. My only hope is to watch the AST board and see if any of them are playing anywhere else. E: wait, what's this "comedy pass"? E2: Oh, it still sucks.

I am enjoying Doug Loves Movies so much these days that I would pay to listen. Bought his recent release from iTunes the other day, saving it for a long ferry ride this weekend. The Elisabeth Shue DLM podcast was great too.

I loving hate you, Uhh Yeah Dude. Episode 34. The Maul of America. Crocs: Dead Comfy. How the gently caress am I supposed to get work done if I am too busy lolling, UYD?! What the gently caress. Also, further apologies for doubting this show. I took a brief haitus for the new This American Life and Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, but it's been all UYD ever since. And it's going to be all UYD all the way to Dragon*Con, and my wife might divorce me because of it, because she hates talk radio, she hates comedy, and she hates laughing and feeling good, but it will be loving worth it.

Every time I listen to this podcast and he goes on one of his completely insane rants, I kinda have to wonder if that's the real guy, or if he's a caricature/exaggeration made just for the show. I'm just having a lot of trouble coming to grips with someone that insane existing.

After listening to every ep of Doug Loves Movies, I'm gonna have to pass. I mostly think his improv is pretty dull, and while some of his guests are alright most of them are just mid-tier Twitter-era comedians. I've noticed that stand ups often don't improv well together if they don't have styles that jive poorly, so to speak. I really enjoyed the actual game, just not the banter before it.

I was cracking up so hard at Cakeboss on CDR, then I was browsing blockbuster and saw a Cake Boss DVD. I had no idea it was a show. (When I saw it there was a split second where I hoped it was a new PFT DVD or something)

NecronSchmecron posted:Why did he leave? It was never clear, but hints lead to something between him and Jimmy Dore. I remember Jimmy mentioned during a subscription drive that if they met some target, he'd finally spill the beans about what happened that made Todd leave the show. Though I don't recall if that goal was ever met, or if they forgot about it. As long as I can hear Todd do more flawless Phil Donohue impressions, so much the better! The Sklarbro Country podcast is probably my favorite at the moment, it's hilarious and even when I don't follow the sport they're talking about, they still make it engaging. Plus, a couple of Dueling Carsons now and then.

I'm so psyched. New Pod F. Tompkast, and Lil' Gary (possibly my fave CDR character) has returned! Also, Marc Maron with Judd Apatow was amazing! Can't wait for part II. He truly does some outstanding shows. Also, the first time I listened to the Jon Hamm/John C. Reilly act-off, I had to pause my iPod every couple seconds; it was making me laugh so hard, I looked like a crazy person.

It's strange--I like him much more as a host/interviewer than a comedian at this point. He can certainly make me laugh but he seems to be able to consistently get some interesting discussion out of people.

I've never been a fan of theirs but I thought they did okay when guesting on CDR. I tried listening to their podcast but man that twin thing gets boring fast. Individually they are fine but since thats a rarity I'm removing them from my list. I'll stick to CDR, Pod F Tompkast and Doug Loves Movies. I just listened to my first DLM yesterday was pleasantly surprised. Wish I could see it live but it's on the wrong coast.

The Sklar Bros have such a great chemistry and rely on bits so much I can never tell when they're not doing bits anymore, which is actually pretty frequent. I guess that's a good thing?

This may have been mentioned before, but Kevin Pollak is on this week's NNF and apparently he has a show too, Kevin Pollak's Chat Show. I've only heard the first two episodes and even though he's still fleshing things out at that point, it's REALLY funny. He has Levar Burton off the bat which is pretty awesome. Check it out.

I assume he does it to make the Audience feel he is addressing them. He is all about the fans from what I've heard. I must also state that I only have the audio because I listen to the majority of my podcasts at work. Obviously the video is a "no, no" here. Edit: Please try to ignore the amount of times he uses the word "literally". He hasn't done it a lot on these first couple episodes but it was every other word on NNF this week. I find him incredibly funny, though, so the teeth grating annoyance is quickly off set by the amount of funny Pollak produces.
