He's a man in his forties who still refers to penises as "wieners". Funny or not, he's kind of the worst.

Adam Scott Aukerman are men in their forties and they (correctly) thinks it's hilarious to discuss the prospect of U2 releasing an album called 'Poop'.

cams posted:I'm actually havin a great day, my life is pretty dope right now. I just have a real pet peeve for people earnestly discussing what is and is not funny. Sure you can say "I am just saying I don't care for it", but then... who gives a poo poo? Who the gently caress wants to have a conversation like that? I don't know a lot of people IRL who enjoy the comedians that are regularly on the podcast circuit, so I was curious if other people like Hardwick (or Pete Holmes). Then I got a sampling of posters telling me what they thought, and I found it interesting. I don't think it's worth wigging out about man.

No one can say anything other than "that is a band" or "they released an album" as passing judgement on it would be "subjective". Really though, that's the whole point of talking about movies and music and comedy. I mean, why talk about any of this stuff if it's not to form tastes and to say, exactly, "Hey, I don't think this person is funny. Thoughts?" What should this thread be, us just recalling who the week's guests are? Or is it ok to talk positive, like "this was a great episode", but not if it's negative?

imo the best way to look at disagreements about comedy is that the people who agree with you are in on something special and the people who disagree are too dumb to understand. You should be reveling in your superiority to us idiots right now, cams

Sometimes I feel bad when Hayes and Sean dump on the engineers even in jest but I loved how they immediately shut down Engineer Cody for his button to that joke.

I think between the HH boys and Two Charted the Engineers have gotten real used to speaking as they are guests. It's funny when Scott put them in their place on Bang Bang. "Oh, no-no. Don't need to reach for a mic!" Says Scott after every yes or no question to an Engineer.

It's about time for an "Earwolf Presents: Behind the Mixing Board" where Brett, Sam and Cody* can just commiserate about being treated like poo poo week in and week out as well as dish dirt on all the hosts. *Baba Booey

I don't know if U Talkin' U2 To Me? has ruined or elevated the phrase "It's been awhile" for me, but it has been said 3 times over the course of the episodes of a show that I've been watching tonight, and every time I couldn't resist singing it. (The show that I'm watching has been having a lot of characters who haven't seen each other in awhile meet up again, but seriously, this is getting ridiculous.)

Yo thread, anyone listen to the cracked podcast? Had an opportunity to listen to a ton of it a few weeks ago on a commute to vegas and it's entertaining. Also, the best movies in the world are monster squad and space jam.

I think they promised episodes as and when they can, but then Scott had to run off to film more CBB TV the next day so I'm not expecting anything soon.

I had a lot of time on campus today so I went back and listened to the Armen Weitzman episodes of Who Charted. I really love them. Armen Weitzman is one of the saddest human beings alive and listening to the saga ending with Besser just DESTROYING him for over an hour is a great experience.

If Adam Sachs is still reading this, you ever think about a 3rd show called Bro Charted? with just Kremer and Stard? Kulap is the best, but the episode of Twooch from a month ago where Kulap left early for an audition was really good. I liked the energy (and I'm greedy and want three shows a week).

Stephanie Allyne is really on fire. She was fantastic on the PFT I4H episode, especially the Lil Nate my little pony scene, which is one of my favorite scenes of all time. She's really great on this show too.
