A Fistful of Dicks posted:edit: Also, I've been listening to Walking the Room with Greg Behrendt and Dave Anthony. It's hilarious; very good rapport between Dave and Greg and pretty funny, obscene riffing. It's also apparently one of Patton Oswalt's favorite podcasts, and he makes frequent appearances on it (and he always kills). My *only* problem with it is Dave Anthony's voice and laugh bugs the ever-loving-gently caress out of me -- I can acknowledge that there's absolutely nothing objectively wrong with his voice (hell, I also listen to Greg Proops's podcast without hesitation and his voice isn't exactly melodic), it just cuts right through me like nails on a chalkboard for some reason. If you listen to it, be warned that the show includes some of it's own vocabulary, including the term 'hobotang' as a reference to Dave's white trash, ape-like neighbors who steal oranges from another neighbor's yard, and 'corndoggin' which means inserting one's arm up to the elbow in a man's anus. I think it was Patton Oswalt who said that being a cuddlah and listening to Walking the Room was like watching the movie Dune where they gave you a glossary to tell you wtf was going on. http://www.walkingtheroom.com/glossary -- I'll take Tim-Tams over the spice melange any day. I do not know what it is, but I crack up every time Greg talks about being upon thee like a gryphon or asks why you'd do that when you got friends.

A Fistful of Dicks posted:Took me a while to warm up to Brian Redban on the Joe Rogan podcast, but I'm starting to like him as a second or third mike. That said, I'm surprised the "Deathsquad" podcast he does with Ari Shaffir and Sam Tripoli hasn't had more of a mention in this thread. It's still a bit unpolished, but in terms of comedic quality, it's not bad and blows some other popular podcasts out of the water. Here's the thing, and I don't know the best way to put this, but a lot of the Deathsquad shows are great. In particular Ari Shaffir's "Skeptic Tank" has had some AMAZING shows where they get one weird person to talk about a specific thing (like a total junkie, or the guy who said 'gently caress trying to get girls, i'm going straight up sex workers') A lot of the other shows are uncomfortable at best and completely unlistenable at worst. The Naughty Show can get creepy on a gross level because they're obviously just a couple of dudes hanging out with a porn actress and every interaction is... I mean, you can just hear the creepy seeping out of their voice. I will recommend Skeptic Tank, and Your Mom's House. They are pretty entertaining. In the current ep they talk more about joke stealing while they all do Salvia. I'm not a big fan of Little Esther. A Fistful of Dicks posted:
What's up, Cuddlah!? We don't attack as a pack, but we are clown from the neck down. Walking the Room is great, and if you like them you should check out TOFOP (but I'm sure you already have) a hilarious Australian podcast. I think Greg Proops is a loving Badass! "Smartest Man in the World" is one of those podcasts that I put off listening to until I can really enjoy it. I love the overly intellectually referential style he brings. He kills it everytime!

The Sasquatching bit was 10x funnier than the 20 minute Vader pussy riff in the Kevin Smith episode. Kirkman was doing great at putting Hardwick in his place every time he tried to reference himself. "Hey I'm from Kentucky to." "I don't care." That and his jab at Johnah and Matt when he asked if he should know who they were.

I get that he was joking and it was just them loving around, but what I should have said was that Kirkman was doing great riffing on Hardwick in not letting him talk about himself like he usually does. Hardwick gets a ton of flack in the quemments section about constantly talking over guests to reference himself.

Normally I'd agree with you, but sometimes he's unsufferable. I'm listening to the new episode with Ari Shaffir, and Ari was saying how he didn't appreciate Brian loving with him while he's tripping. He explained to him he needs to be around people he can trust to not gently caress with him, but Brian keeps saying that he was doing it in a "friendly way" and he won't let up. I'm getting Bill Burr RSS Feed flashbacks.

I've listened to several Naughty Show podcasts, and while some have been good the majority have been boring just because it's a couple guys getting high, sitting around, and sucking up to a porn star. Don't get me wrong, if I was in a room with a porn star I'd be sucking up to her too, but it doesn't make for interesting radio. I guess that's how Howard Stern was so successful. His radio show was popular enough that he could rip on the porn stars if he wanted to if they were boring, and they would stick around regardless.

Porn people on the radio have never been interesting. Awesome post/username combo! But I totally agree. Redban won the lottery on being a guy in his situation. Thibault(sp?) and Tripoli can be funny, but it's the very "dude" vibe that can make it creepy. Those "naughty shows" are unbearably creepo. Ari is a smart guy and pretty hilarious. Despite my better reasoning, Redban can sometimes be really funny in context. The worst is when he and Rogan obviously don't know what they're talking about "Portugal, that's right by Chile!" (fake example) but they run into things like that a lot. Still, Rogan's show is great. Joey Diaz is a loving legend! Also, the only impersonation that Rogan's good at, and he kills it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDEir6IqQVo

Redban was unbearable on the latest Rogan podcast with Ari. It honestly reminded me of a friend I used to argue with when I was 13. It's funny how Rogan, earlier in that same podcast, was jokingly ribbing Redban for being a manchild that never matured. Brian really does seem to lack any sort of empathy when he's been seriously called out. At one point Rogan even says "What the gently caress is wrong with you?? You lock up when you feel like people are attacking you."

Joe and the guest will be having a conversation, and Joe will include Brian by asking him a question, and then Brian just takes that opportunity to change the subject to what he was thinking about, just because he was brought into the conversation.

What are these pies posted:I'm glad there's a bunch of new MBMBaM converts in this thread! Travis's Cosmo discussion this week was brilliant. And next week is their first show of a new month, and you know what THAT means... I know what that means because I listened to the first May episode TODAY! I've listened to about 10 MBMBaM's now and I am super enjoying it. It's right up there with CBB and PFT, easy. Gonna give Jordan Jesse Go a shot tomorrow morning because of this thread and the fact that The Brothers mentioned it. To Lou, I know I'm late, but I finally decided "gently caress it" and clicked on "Lou Reads CumOnFood" on my phones podcast thingy after kinda glaring at it a few times and deciding to do something ~not dumb~ instead, so excelsior and whatnot. Hearing your little break-in-character reactions was cracking me up more than the sperm in peoples food was grossing me out.

Has anyone been listening to the Anytime Show with Dominic Dierkes (from Derick Comedy)? It's not that great, because he's not that great of an interviewer, but it has mostly A-list guests of the comedy podcast world. The format is basically: a couple of minutes of stand up, interview an audience member, interview a semi-famous comedian's character, interview a well-known comedian. I'm not sure how seriously he's taking it because he hasn't updated the feed in several weeks, and he's had on Jonah Ray and Jordan Morris since that, and the feed on anytimeshow.com is broken.

I was physically uncomfortable once. There was one peak or valley in my metaphorical flatline of calm, but being so desensitized and jaded by the internet helped me get through it with more of a "well that's just no good" resolve. I also think a lot of those posts were just those people living out fantasies, though I'm sure some of them were at least rooted in truth.

I appreciate everyone at least trying to listen! It was loving rough. Seriously, sometimes I have to walk away just because the concepts make no sense but this was the 1st time I almost threw up at my desk. Even just telling people about it in person, the whole 1st post which is so gross... The determination to eat his own jizz... I really try to balance the gross with the weird or true... I don't know if I'll be able to match that grossness for a while. I have couple of sites on my list which I can't bring myself to do... Anyway, thanks to everyone that gave that episode a shot. Kudos to the Excelsior Club!

Cromulent posted:Definitely not a character. He claims it is sometimes, but that argument with Ari (and the one with Burr) was way too real for him to be playing a character. Also, count how many times he ends a sentence with "andstufflikethat" or "orwhatever" The Ari and RSS feed thing were real Brian, but when he does those stupid tangents he tries way too hard in my opinion, I like the Experience because they seem to be having a real conversation. Brian just fucks it up when he starts doing butthole jokes that aren't funny.

I might recommend starting with the JJGo episode with the Aqua Teen Hunger Force guys, it's by far one of my favorites. That, or any one with the Sklar Brothers. Some of the episodes, especially earlier ones (particularly ones with non-comedy guests) fall flat because the guest runs out of steam or doesn't have very good chemistry with them in the first place. The recent one with Mary Roach is a great example of this - they do pretty good for about 40 minutes, and after that you can almost hear her thinking "God, is this dumb show going to be OVER!"

It's in the same sort of vain as JJGo, but there is never really a bad episode. JJGo's quality definitely changes depending on how good the guest is. e: Also Ken Marino was great on Who Charted? this week. I would love to see him on CBB.

Yeah, I love Doug, but as it's been said before he really babies out when things don't go exactly the way he wants or he feels that control over the show has been wrested out of his hands. For a guy who's supposed persona is "Hey everybody! I'm just a silly happy-go-lucky pothead!" he sure can act like a brat. I've always maintained that his best material has nothing to do with weed and I kind of resent the fact that he's known as a "weed comic". Don't get me wrong, I love me some weed, but I tend to think that jokes about weed/being high are usually dumb. But that's the niche he's carved out for himself so I guess he has to run with it. Did anyone ever find him in Blade Runner?
