Zero reason to think PFT on Who Charted wouldn't be anything but fantastic. Also, Hot Saucerman is hot as gently caress.

Yesterday, I finally got a chance to listen to the WTF episode with Gallagher. Jesus Christ, that was uncomfortable as hell. I died laughing when Gallagher claimed he was funnier than almost every other comedian, had a litany of excuses for why others were more famous, and then basically tried to take credit for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He's like the Troy Duffy of comedians.

Duncan Trussell is consistently my favorite guest on Joe Rogan's podcast because he's such a nerd and doesn't try to hide it. Also, I'd watched his episode of Drunk History before I heard him on Rogan and had no loving clue it was him, which made it more amazing when I realized. He usually gets the biggest laughs out of Joe, too.

DangerDummy! posted:I've been aware of Greg Proops in one form or another for probably 15 years (enough so that I recognized his voice immediately in Phantom Menace), and I've never really given a poo poo about him until Smartest Man in the World. There are a lot of podcasts that I love but if there's one I anticipate more than all the rest, it's his. The guy's a real loving maestro, and I'm kinda bummed it's taken me so long to get turned on to him. I, like most people, knew him from Who's Line and various other TV appearances. I went to see him do stand-up a couple of months ago and he's great. If he plays in your vicinity, go see him!

I sort of like Duncan, but he can be even more interminable than Rogan when it comes to dumb stoner rants. His drunken history episode, however, is the greatest http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gOR91oentQ

The difference in Joe and Duncan is that Joe can't back up anything he says, while Duncan's rants are based on the insane amount of knowledge he has about religious and spiritual teachings. He is like an encyclopedia with that stuff.

Doug Benson was on the first live Comedy Film Nerds podcast that went up today. They were in Portland, and the show was kind of a mess but in a good way. The crowd was a little heckler-y, Graham Elwood was even more all over the place than usual, Doug seemed even more hosed up than usual, and it was all thoroughly entertaining. One of the highlights was Doug and Graham taking turns shutting up this one really loud girl in the audience. Also Doug pulled it together just enough for a round of the Leonard Maltin game at the end.

That's cool; I'd definitely donate where I could. I listened to the first few Wolf Den episodes and honestly I was a little worried about how money-hungry Jeff seemed about the whole thing. Not to say that they shouldn't get paid for producing such awesome shows, but I was worried that the whole thing was going to be pay only from his tone. If anything they should merchandise more.

Strange Matter posted:Sean Gunn really played well off him. "Name any movie!" His "celebrity" guests have been mostly pretty good. Ellen page is good, Elizabeth Shue was great. Olivia Munn was a disaster though. She showed up late and was an unfunny moron. I don't understand her success, as she's not even particularly good looking.

To be fair we did get the Kids in the Hall and a sweet Dave Attell, Lewis Black, and Mitch Hedberg show. Like, eight years ago.

If earwolf does donation stuff I will totally donate, but man if I have to start paying to listen to CBB I will be really sad. It is my favorite podcast by a long shot.Listening to it has gotten me through so many boring rear end days, and long drives.

Angry Moo Cow posted:ROBIN INCE AND JOSIE LONG'S 'UTTER SHAMBLES Thanks for letting us know about this one. I haven't listened to it yet, but from her appearances on various British panel shows I've seen, Josie Long seems like one of the most adorable-by-nature people on the planet. I've checked out a few episodes of Who Charted? and it is intolerable. It pretty much only works if you really like the guest, and then it's just two people apparently trying to drag down the guest you like.

Their Earwolf survey from a few weeks back had a few questions about the WTF business model (paying for the back catalogue) - if you (not *you*, but a generic reader of this post) are a tightwad, it may be worth downloading the whole shebang now. I'll donate for sure, although I prefer to choose how.

It's actually good news if Jeff is going to try to monetize on donations and the back catalog. All the early episodes of The Wolf Den were him talking about more specialized ad spot agreements, like the Sklar's do with Legal Zoom, though the LZ ad rep admitted that the ads weren't making them any money, so maybe that's why he's switching the strategy.

I thought the Comedy Bang Bang thing was a joke because it was such a horrible name. It won't effect the quality of the show, but wow, it's a bad name, and that new logo is not so hot.

How much of LegalZoom not making money on the calming shores of Sklarbro Country is due to them being a bad fit with a comedy audience? Maybe they were banking on more Rome followers when they decided to sponsor the show, sorta like how the sports section of the paper is full of divorce attorney ads. I'm reminded of the grill enhancer that advertised on WTF for a couple of episodes. Maron seems to have Audible and adamandeve.com as sponsors pretty regularly, so those must be somewhat effective.

Maybe they were banking on more Rome followers when they decided to sponsor the show, sorta like how the sports section of the paper is full of divorce attorney ads. IIRC Audible and adamandeve.com have advertising agreements through the company that runs libsyn which hosts just about every podcast and they take a huge chunk of the ad revenue (north of 50%) for themselves. That's why you hear those on a ton of different podcasts: the companies made agreements with the hosting provider and they just go for a blanket strategy. As for why other advertising isn't making money on podcasting, I think they're just not selling enough time. Terrestrial radio does somewhere between a third and half of their total on air time as ads and runs them in 6-15 minute long chunks with the host doing additional advertising during the show. I'm not sure that strategy is ever going to work for podcasting and I'm not sure what will, but I'd bet on network subscription (i.e. $2-5/mo for all Earwolf shows) being the most viable until listening to podcasts in the car gets more mainstream.

And frankly I wasn't a huge fan of the 2nd anniversary show for that same reason; just lots of "random" wackiness as opposed to the usual...constrained wackiness? Probably a dumb, inaccurate complaint.
