Its rare, but whenever Seth talks about his acting career and his residuals; its always gold. Good UYD this week.

Mike and Tom eat snacks is pretty good though I was a bit shaken when they killed the Toblerone. C'mon man that poo poo is delicious. I'm trying to get into Walking the Room but it's not taking yet, it may be a little too underproduced and rambling for me. But I love UYD and that's as rambling as possible so I dunno. Who charted is probably my favorite right now. Likely due to the great chemistry and great guests they've nabbed. It's a good concept, and it doesn't hurt that it drops in the barren podcast wasteland of Wednesday.

I thunk Duncan Trussel from the Lavender hour said he was going to that show too. The fact that the intro and outro music for this week's episode of UYD was Phish was not lost on me.

(I'm listening to it all out of order) and Jonathan's story about meeting with commercial agents was fantastic because he started panicking that the 'look' he thought he was pulling off clearly wasn't working at all. Even better was Seth's reaction to Jonathan's joke about being Muslim.

Duncan and Jonathan going doesn't surprise me, but I just listened to Adam Carolla's podcast and he was there too. Then again, he complained about jamming and the cover songs they played so he probably just got free tickets or something.

I don't think it was mentioned yet that Marc Maron has a new standup out called "This Has To Be Funny" and it is.

(the neighborhood south of Downtown Seattle, not the TV show, for non-Seattlites)  But seriously, just because Carolla's rants on everyone who's not a straight white male are "well thought out" doesn't mean he isn't a douchebag. He's the guy at the bar spouting off racist jokes and slapping you on the back saying "AM I RIGHT!!??". In a world full of morons somehow grumpy old man Adam Carolla just has everything figured out. His talent is to be able to speak in such a way that it rallies like-minded people to his side. While that's an admirable talent, and he can be funny, and he's not always completely wrong, at the end of the day when you're swinging a hammer hanging drywall coaching boxing working on cars he's still kind of an rear end in a top hat.

I bought one of those Haagen Dasz singles based on the Mike and Tom episode, and I have to say: They really are good. And the spoon really does deserve praise. I couldn't help think how happy Rolf would be about the final product.

Seconding this - listened to it last night and while I haven't listened to his previous 2 albums and cant compare This Has To Be Funny to those, I very much enjoy the new less depressed and and more loving Marc.

Ah, didn't know the Ross Kids was a gooncast, I'll add it to my list. Thoughts on the ones recommended to me: Smartest Man Alive: It's Greg Proops being Greg Proops (awesome). Whats not to love? Mike and Tom Eat Snacks: I could listen to Michael Ian Black talk about anything, so this is perfect. Tom also sounds like John Stewart. Lou Reads: I don't understand how someone can say things so disgusting and vile but still remain perfectly sane, charismatic and well spoken. Caustic Soda: From what I heard I like it, but one guy speaks into the mic and the other guy stands six feet from the mic, hard to listen in a shop where grinders and poo poo are going off all day. Complete Guide to Everything: Hilarious. Reminds me of UYD if they did it differently. Superego: The description I read didn't make this out to be some character show. Also started downloading Walking The Room, and will to the Ross Kids soon.

This week's Best Show is pretty great. Vanessa Bayer from SNL is on and tells Tom about her father who claims to be the first person to be named Todd.

I've been meaning to post about this podcast for a while now, but I haven't really gotten around to it, for one reason or another, but may I present for your approval: http://roundtableofgents.com/ The Round Table of Gentlemen It is without a doubt the most vile, disgusting, offensive podcast I listen to, and it is absolutely delightful. I may be biased, as one of my former co-workers from college radio is the newsman on the program, but it regularly finds itself in my weekly rotation of podcast. Episode 56 has CBB favorite James Adomian on the episode, so that may be a good place to start. The format has takes a bit of getting used to, as the panel is generally composed of 6 to 9 people, but once you get a handle on the regulars and their respective voices, everything begins to fall into its hedonistic place, and you slowly find yourself placing yourself in the round table. Not for the faint at heart, I suppose. The Banned fucked around with this message at 06:38 on Aug 12, 2011 |

He just could not let Todd go. It was hilarious. You just know if he met Todd he would go back and forth with the guy for hours.

I'm listening to the 200th episode of WTF (which is awesome, Birbiglia is a great interviewer as well, and I really want to check his comedy out now), and it kinda scares me how much I relate to Maron.

Doug Loves Movies: Baltimore is a loving mess. Doug and Amy Schumer get super drunk, Anthony Jeselnik gets super rear end in a top hat-ish, and Graham Elwood is Graham Elwood. It's funny, but I mostly laughed at the spectacle of the whole thing versus the jokes.

Walking the Room just gets better and better. The first episodes are slow but once Greg and Dave get going it's great. I recommend starting from the start if you want to get all the in-jokes and such. Elephon!

So I basically ended up listening to all of them backwards. It was kind of fun to hear the in jokes and then hear their genesis later. It was like Arrested Development putting the setup after the punchline.

Both Who Charted and How did this get made are sort of hit and miss for me, especially Who Charted because I don't know or care about a lot their guests, but the latest Who Charted with Paul Scheer really hit it out of the park.

I concur this, especially because of the brief montage of past WTF interviews at the very end. It reminded me of the infamous Mencia episode, when it played the part where he makes a thinly-veiled threat to anyone who badmouths him. Dude is messed up.

My problem with it is that EVERY single other bad movie podcast (Flop House, Yeah Its That Bad, We Hate Movies) is funnier and way more polished. If How Did This Get Made was in the Earwolf Challenge, it would be out in a week.

I think it works better for some movies than others. Old Dogs was exactly as they described it and I had fun with both the movie and the podcast. Suckerpunch, on the other hand, sounded a lot better in the podcast than it actually was. I like all the bad movie podcasts, even We Hate Movies - I like the show but I want to watch these movies too and some of the movies they do are obscure and hard to find, so maybe I'm not a very demanding consumer.

Aside from "joke, joke, joke", he's an awesome storyteller. A great one is about him developing and adult-onset psycho-chemical imbalance in which his brain doesn't flood his body with a natural sedative while he's in REM sleep (like most everyone). So imagine dreaming, but your body also acting out physically what you're experiencing in your dreams. He has a book (and maybe DVD/CD?) about it called "Sleepwalk With Me". e: Found it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MU2KRBh1MOA

I've been listening to the Jay Mohr podcast... its so fun to listen to. Such great stories. The only bad part of it is all the Smodcast cornball advertising thats jammed on the front. I got tired of hearing "Smodcast is going Say for Pay" as if getting a CD quality podcast is a super great thing. Its archival!

Self-pimping seems to be the cool thing to do here, so I'll jump in. We just finished the second episode of our drunk-dial call-in show, The Drunken Bulldog. We have a Google Voice number that takes in voicemails and texts for us to berate and laugh at. We are also looking for new hosting, so please let us know what you like. http://goo.gl/uccGW

The Earwolf Challenge is probably the dullest podcast I've ever listened to. A lovely concept with an apathetic host who makes me want to kill myself. On the other hand, The Podcast Eating contest never fails to make me cry laughing.
