If there's even a remote chance we get a character like "Juice Guy" it'll be worth skipping through the serious stuff.

Good to see some love for HWYW. I love Julie, I'm excited for her pilot with Billy Eichner, here's hoping it gets picked up. This week's Walking the Room was great with Patton guest hosting.

Considering who is on it, and who wrote for it, I have some faith. Fox aren't amazing but they're putting Mulaney on the same night as Bob's Burgers and Brooklyn Nine Nine, both of which are fantastic shows, so I have hope.

Don't judge it by the sneak peek, every show has a bad trailer. I don't even know why they try to drum up publicity with those. "Pilots are never that funny... Let's take all the out-of-context punchlines and cut them together!" I wish networks would put some money into producing cinematic teasers a la FX. Doesn't matter if it's Louie or George Lopez's latest corny sitcom; they make me interested, at the least.

Pilots themselves tend to be pretty lousy. I used to watch a lot of TV pilots (and TV in general) and I can probably count on one hand the pilots that I've seen that were truly good episodes of television. They are primarily made in order to sell the show to the network and have to play it safe to do so. Hollywood is pretty dumb.

The other thing about comedy shows are that they are often so dependent on a strong ensemble and selling that in a trailer is near impossible. As is selling it in an episode or two. Almost every sitcom I hold in high esteem was not screaming out of the gate.

Been really enjoying the Dollop since it's been revamped with Gareth co-hosting, he and Dave play off each other really well.

Yeah the ghost episode of the Dollop was amazing.

I just posted a new episode of Lou Reads. http://loureads.com/2014/05/22/lou-reads-from-the-discussions-at-virgin-forums/ Its a little less intense than the previous episode. King Lou fucked around with this message at 21:22 on May 22, 2014 |

To be fair, real crime scene reports would've been less intense than the previous one, too.

Lennon Parham's story about Jason Mantzoukas needing to flee midtown NY during 9/11 might be one of the funniest things I've heard in weeks during this week's Improv4Humans.

16 min into the PFT ep of The Todd Glass Show and there's no way this isn't going to be an amazing episode. e: PFT seriously is the Todd Whisperer. Conduit for Sale! fucked around with this message at 18:10 on May 23, 2014 |

The new Todd Glass Show with PFT is indeed really good. Around 1h45m Paul mimics Todd's controlling/OCD hosting style for at least a minute and it's exactly as on point as you'd expect.

Todd thinks about saying bad words a lot. He even busted it out on his short book promo on WTF today.

Does anyone know what Todd's dogshit songs are? I tried to google the one where the guy "slipped and fell and it hurt like hell" but didn't get any results.

That PFT Todd Glass episode is totally brilliant - Paul talking about his traumatic childhood over that dumb music killed me every single time. And excellent observation by him that all 'old showbiz cool' is just them fake apologising.

I will second the Crabfeast and Professor Blastoff. Professor Blastoff is hit and miss but I think it might be the funniest podcast I've ever listened to at its best. The last couple episodes have been pretty good.

Not Comedy Bang Bang I dunno how you feel about Bret Easton Ellis, but I enjoy his show (I love his voice, and his books, but he's pretty pretentious). Also Stone Cold's first podcast of the week comes out on Tuesdays. Same with the Ten Minute Podcast.

The Dork Forest has been coming out on Tuesdays. I'm an on and off listener, because some of the topics I just can't force myself to care about, but I like Jackie Kashian so I usually like the ones I listen to.

I wouldn't say that they tend to stick too close to the topics most of the time.

Sklarbro County drops late Monday/early Tuesday. Fun if you're into the Sklars and want to hear crazy stories about Florida. The new Norm MacDonald episode with Adam Sandler was really underwhelming.

Bret Easton Ellis podcast is unintentionally hilarious. He is so incredibly pretentious but even when I don't agree with his views, I love hearing him talk. Fun game: see how long it takes for his guest to speak. Or how soon Ellis says "haters" or mentions his 22 year old boyfriend, which he does in every ep. As for the original question, the audio version of the Desus vs Mero podcast comes out on Tuesdays. Required listening IMO. Two sneaky smart dudes from The Bronx who will drop Thomas Kincaid references while talking about going knuckle deep into Kim Kardashian's butt.

I bank a bunch of podcasts I only listen to for occasional guests/topics and listen to those on "no release days" like Tuesdays (Todd Glass, Jeff Rubin Jeff Rubin, Hardcore History, WTF, ect.). Honestly though, with the U2 podcast being super long and NNF being twice a week I can't keep up with podcasts like I used to
