Production posted:I still listen to How Did This Get Made? because I love bad movies too much. I prefer it when they have more to say other than how BONKERS the movies was, though. Agree with the We Hate Movies support, their James Belushi and Michael Caine podcasts are amazing. The episode where Belushi's role in K-9 was described as being a "crime spree" was one of my favorite all time podcast episodes. I need to check out The Flop House, thanks for tip!

I started listening to Mohr Stories by Jay Mohr. I've never been a fan of his but I am in love with the podcast. He talks a lot of shop about the business and doesn't hold back. The only issue is his constant sidetracking. I don't think its as bad as Kevin Smith because he always gets back to it. This is definitely my new favorite and the only podcast I am on top of as they come out.

Although I still couldn't believe that he let that one guy talk about jacking off in the showers at the gym, and gleefully thinking about how the next guy has to stand in his jizz, without a reprimand. Sorry, thats a pretty hosed up thing to do. But Jay has really great comedy timing and I agree he does a good job of coming back around.

If you check out the Flop House, might I suggest you start at the Bratz Movie one. That one's by far of my favorites. I know it's in vogue to bash How Did This Get Made, but one of the things I really appreciate about it is that they tell you beforehand what movie they are going to watch, so you can do a little homework. It's not much, but sometimes episodes of 'bad movie' podcasts fall flat to me because they don't describe the movie very well and I haven't actually seen it myself. Of course, that doesn't excuse them from LITERALLY calling someone a 'dildo' every episode. That is one of the most disturbing things I've ever heard on a podcast and it makes NO sense!

Yea it kinda dropped from 'oh ha ha brothers being brothers' to 'oh so yea you guys have some legit issues you should work out' about half in. I really liked his guest bailiff though. SpacePig posted:Oh, no. That doesn't sound promising. I was happy to see a new episode in my list this week, but this doesn't sound good. Well I personally found it funny regardless, just kinda a heads up that I hope you like chuckling at an awkward family dispute being dragged out on an internet comedy podcast. It's nothing TERRIBLE like horrid family secrets coming out or anything, it's just about half in the brothers kinda get this undertone of 'no, seriously, gently caress you man'.

He didn't have much competition because it was basically a "No name comedian" night, but he held his own. Wow! That's cool to hear. Thanks for the report! Is his poo poo genuinely funny or goofy/crass like I imagine it? I guess what I mean is, was it all pussy jokes or something like he chimes in with on the show?

I did listen to the Flop House Bratz episode and I gotta admit it was ok but not outstanding. These guys laugh at their own jokes a lot and I think one named dropped Jon Stewart. But I also listened to their Wolverine episode and enjoyed it, I think I might need to get used to their style. Any other episodes you would recommend?

Swing Vote was another good one, and Devil. I think I am Number 4 and Gooby and The Roommate were good. Also, that one about the serial killer at the sorority where they kept calling one girl 'Chugs'.

So did anybody watch the Nerdist show on BBC America? I thought it had some funny moments, but parts of it felt kind of strained, and I thought David O’Doherty's piece was completely unnecessary. I'm guessing the Beeb insisted upon it or something, but whatever - at least it was short. Also, too many shots of audience members laughing at jokes. I get the impression this is another British TV thing, but I don't know that for certain. Anyway, Craig Ferguson was hilarious, as always, and I liked that he got to be more dirty than he usually is on CBS. Matt Smith was also charming, in a kind of shy, awww-shucks way. Overall, it didn't strike me as anything that I don't hear regularly on the podcast, but then again, that's probably not the metric by which people should be judging this pilot. For a talk show, even a deep cable one, I thought it was pretty funny and had a good deal of potential to be something pretty groundbreaking. I wish there had been fewer bits and more of Hardwick just riffing with Matt and Jonah, but I understand that this is one of the things that separate TV from podcasts. Anyway, bottom line is, I hope the show got enough viewers to warrant some more episodes, because I think i could be fun, and I genuinely like these guys and want them to succeed. I wouldn't say I'm expecting that to be the outcome, but hey - it could be fun. edit: Hahaha, I didn't notice this thread is in a new forum that contains a Nerdist thread because I'm mildly retarded.

Is anyone putting together a Best Show thread?

I definitely am, so you may have a point. Truthfully, I was just expecting it to be a little better given the people involved.

Bill burr's website isn't loading for some reason, but it was briefly working and I managed to get the podcast (took an hour to download). I uploaded it to mediafire for people who can't access the website. And if the website starts working right after I post this, then I'll look like a dummy. Bill Burr Monday Morning Podcast 9/26 http://www.mediafire.com/?6yx15x53k18e4c0 Speaking of Bill Burr, he should probably get his own thread.

His show is incredibly hit-or-miss, and it really all comes down to how funny you find his stand-up, and how much you like to hear people complain. Every now and again, he has some really funny stories, and his girlfriend Nia really adds something to the advice sections she shows up in, but it's not something I'd necessarily recommend to someone else.

I do like his stand up but he does the same thing Adam Carolla does, just complains for X amount of time. It's enjoyable sometimes but it gets tiresome after a while.

One of the big differences between Bill Burr and Adam Carolla is that Bill Burr's rants are mostly tongue-in-cheek. And when he starts ranting on a larger issue, like Banks, he's quick to follow it with "don't listen to me. I don't know what the gently caress I'm talking about. I'm an idiot" I think what Bill Burr does is pretty unique in the comedy podcast world. He almost never has guests and only occasionally brings his girlfriend in for a little while. Is there anyone else out there that does this, just solo stream of consciousness talk for an hour or so? NotWearingPants fucked around with this message at 21:57 on Sep 26, 2011 |

It just gets tiring listening to complaining all the time, that's probably why I find shows like Who Charted to be so refreshing. I know there are a couple that do a solo podcast but I can't remember who (was gregg proops one of them?)

I kept hoping that the sound of a gavel would be drowned out by them screaming obscenities at each other, because most of their dialogue felt like it was about 10 seconds away from that. Also, I'd never heard of the magazine the brother was trying to schmooze to get into. This probably makes me old.

CommunistMojo posted:Holy loving poo poo the new live WTF is worth it for just that one blowjob story. I'm listening to that one right now so I can't comment, but I was thinking about live vs. studio, and how it varies depending on the podcast. For a few podcasts that do both that come to mind... Better with a live audience: Doug Loves Movies Better in Studio: Adam Carolla Marc Maron Nerdist Dork Forest Is there anyone else that does both formats where the live version is better? Kind of split on PFT.

For a few podcasts that do both that come to mind... Strongly agree the Doug Loves Movies needs an audience, I don't think I've finished an in studio episode. Carolla is slightly better in studio, although the Chris Titus episode was great. Sometimes Bald Bryan's drops are nearly inaudible live. In my opinion Nerdist is great in studio or not. They seem to get high profile guests live (Patrick Stewart) and the Black Dynamite episode was good. Loved the Wil Wheaton live episode too.

Jack Bandit posted:Are there any live WTFs that I should listen to specifically? I've always skipped them. I can't really think of any that are great. One problem is that he tends to have a lot of people so you just get 5-10 minute chunks of stuff. What generally annoys me about live shows is that the hosts are so excited about them, but it's got to be a better experience being there than listening to the recording. There are visual jokes that don't translate well, interactions with audience members that you can't hear, and technical problems that take away from the flow of the show. Greg Proops and Doug Benson seem to do it so well. When Doug accidentally hit a baby with a woot monkey it was freaking hilarious, because he could properly convey what happened while at the same time apologizing. Worst very special live episode ever? The Tell 'Em Steve Dave in Texas where Quinn was drunk, Walt shut down and wouldn't speak for two hours, and Bryan had to somehow run things in front of a crowd that was turning on them.

The live WTF's are worth it or not depending on small things for me the overall episode can be pretty meh. That said I'd recommend episode 101 with Natasha Leggero ripping on Marc for talking about his ex, 107 Patton Oswalt is gold as always and the latest 213 for the greatest blowjob story told and Ira Glass trying to remember his how he spent a drunken night and lastly episode 201 because I loving love Bob Ducca.

This is going to seem like I work for Marc or something, but I think all the live episodes for sale are great. They have some EPIC confrontations between Marc and guest (Morgan Murphy, Michael Ian Black), and generally just great comics in front of live audiences where they're at their best. http://www.wtfpodshop.com/ EPISODE 5 - RETURN TO COMIX A superstar lineup joins Marc back at Comix in NYC. With Eugene Mirman, Kristen Schaal, Jon Glaser, Jessi Klein and Sam Seder. EPISODE 4 - THE BLUE SHOW Marc said this one would get filthy, and it did. With Dave Attell, Robert Kelly, Kurt Metzger, Anthony Jezelnick, Joe DeRosa and a special appearance by Amy Schumer. EPISODE 3 - A NIGHT OF MANY JEWS Marc welcomes the great fictional married couple of Jeff Garlin and Susie Essman, plus Gary Gulman and Joe Mande. Taped 7/21/10. EPISODE 2 - ASPEN Live broadcast from the Rooftop Comedy Festival in Aspen, Colorado, featuring Ryan Singer, Chris Fairbanks, Hannibal Burress, Shane Mauss, and Michael Ian Black. Taped 6/12/10. EPISODE 1 - LIVE AT COMIX Marc welcomes John Mulaney, Janeane Garofalo, Morgan Murphy, Todd Barry, Greg Giraldo and Tom Shillue. Taped 4/29/10 at Comix comedy club in New York City.
