I think Doug has said before he'd like to offer them for free (or for 99 cents) but iTunes wouldn't let him. Oh, thanks, I had no idea there were episodes that didn't appear on the RSS feed.

Which episode of The Best Show features Four Loko? I've just started listening to this show, and I love it.

A PRIZED MULE! posted:The newest "Skeptic Tank" entitled "IMPRISONED" with Joey "Coco" Diaz sheds a lot of light on his criminal backstory. A good listen for people that like him from Rogan and wonder what he's about. This is pretty good. Hard to follow at some points because of the way Joey tells stories but really interesting.

A more recent Best Show would be when they take a tour of the hate pit on January 11, 2011. An even more recent great one is May 10, 2011 when Paul Scheer calls in on the set of Piranha 3-D 2 and Tom imagines a musical based on Chicago's early 90s alt-rock scene (and I think this is where we learn that Chicago is the land of the tuffs.)

The pHo posted:For those who don't know much about it, 'Attack the Block' that they were plugging on CBB is very, very good and you should absolutely go see it if you live in one of the 7 major cities that exist in the US. Yeah! I saw it in the free screening a couple of months ago here in Seattle and it's really fun. If you like "Shaun of the Dead" at all then you'll at least enjoy this movie. I wouldn't go far as to say it's amazing, but it is very entertaining.

This is more stand-up than podcasts, but I think people will appreciate it regardless: the entire two-disc 2007 Comedy Death Ray album is on Spotify. Features PFT, David Cross, Patton Oswalt, Scott Auckerman, Nick Thune, and waaay more. http://open.spotify.com/album/1nXjYSKB4TMY4yMtRjK2tl

One of my favorite Best Show Gems is Tom prank calling Bruce Willis. One caveat is that the first segment is hilarious and the second kind of borders on the tedious side. If you haven't seen them yet, check out a few of the music videos Tom's directed. They're pretty good.

I just recently got into Best Show as well, and it's so fantastic. I'm especially enjoying recently whenever Tom starts worrying that this episode is going to end up in "the rest" of Podmass.

I'm curious, does the Best Show use that 6 minute long repetitive intro every single time? I listened to one and it wasn't for me so I moved on, but I find it really weird that people bitch about 30 second gig plugs in other podcasts but this show has had nothing but praise, despite having easily the longest and most annoying intro I've ever heard in a podcast

On the podcast, they have to edit out the music, so it sounds like one giant intro. Also, the Best Show intros are awesome.

Holy poo poo, this show has 3 theme songs? If the episode I listened to didn't have Tom talking before the themes like he sometimes does I might have never made it to the good stuff. It's really hard to skip on the WFMU app, too, because the timeline is so small and it's a 3 hour podcast. Luckily I usually download it so I can use the <<<30 second feature on my phone. Actually, most podcast streaming apps I've tried suck and lose your place. I think This American Life finally fixed it so I actually use that one. It's nice to free up the space on my phone, but then I would have to take a screencap whenever I get out of my car so I can get close to finding where I stopped.

The converse of all this is Superego, and how awesome they are about dividing the shows up into chapters, with different pictures for each part and everything. It'd be great if other shows did that (particularly WTF; I'd love to skip right past the monologue)

Semi unrelated question but is it possible to sync the podcasts you have on your laptop and on your desktop computer since it's on the same itunes account?

I didn't find it too alienating (no pun intended). While I am a bit of a fan of a lot of British fare, mostly caper movies like "Lock, Stock" or things like "Shaun of the Dead", I don't consider myself especially an Anglophile. I had no problem parsing what was said, nor did my girl who is not as versed in it as I. I don't think the dialogue was too drenched in British slang for the average American to figure out what they're getting at. I'd bet that most people going to see it (nerds) know what they're getting into and that really diminishes the amount of people that wouldn't "get it". You wouldn't believe how many people here LOVE "Dr. Who", but I can't stand it. Oddly, MY GIRLFRIEND and I love "Keeping Up Appearances". I like a bunch of other British shows as well. Keep in mind that a lot of chav, council flat, ghetto, whatever you call it, slang is largely appropriated from American hip-hop, so there's a bit of overlap. It might sound odd to you, but as it seems everybody loves foreign accents no matter where they are, British ghetto speech sounds loving awesome to me (as an American intimately familiar with ghetto culture). Roots Manuva and Dizzee Rascal sound like complete badasses to me. Wow. I'm going on and on. Hope this answers your question. As I love language I was really interested in replying to your post comprehensively. Cheers! A PRIZED MULE! fucked around with this message at 13:01 on Jul 23, 2011 |

It's been mentioned before, but Comedy Film Nerds is my favorite movie podcast, it's shaped up into a really consistently good show. It's not always the funniest show though, as a lot of the actual movie discussion tends toward the more serious.

As an aside, Keeping Up Appearances is generally not that well regarded in the UK, except perhaps for the elderly and the mentally ill. That said, at least it's not My Hero.

I have a decent chunk of iTunes credit so I bought the DLM Tournament finals and holy poo poo Samm Levine really is a big prick! I love Scott storming off once(Was it really a bathroom break  ), Paul knocking over Samm's beer, and then both Scott and Paul getting out of there ASAP. What a sore sport, if Aukerman or Paul had won it would have been soooo great.Also I checked out the CBB forum at Earwolf.com and it has to be filled with the worst loving wordplay and bad catchphrase ideas I've ever read.
