FYI, there was a miniature Reality Show Show in the recent WSGLL if you watch Vanderpump Rules. Also last night's Bachelor and last weeks Challenge would have made a mindblowing reality show show this week.

Sean guested on episode 219 of "Gilmore Guys", a 2-hour long p-cast of what a gay couple thought about a single episode of the Gilmore Girls. It was pretty good!

Sadly I don't think it will ever happen because no one was listening and they said in some interview that the amount of time they had to spend on reality shows every week just to get enough material for one episode was a hassle

But a while after the show ended they did kinda do one more episode for Vulture if you never heard that

Yeah, in the Gilmore Guys epi Sean said it was like 6 hours a week, I think for each of them. They apparently assigned themselves shows to watch to cover all the bases.

Even if you don't really care about the picks, I think Get Up On This is entertaining and hosts have good chemistry together. For the most part they have a pretty good track record of getting interesting guests from outside of the usual podcast world too.

This is probably my favorite part of it. A lot of the people they get aren't huge, with the exception of Simon Helberg, Mike Shinoda, and Chad Gilbert, who aren't well known and are pretty drat cool. If it wasn't for this show, I would never have found out about Sarah Tiana.

I wish RSS could only run when The Challenge was on, and that it would be the only show they would cover. I don't think I've ever seen so much as a second of The Challenge, but I loved it any time it came up on RSS. It was pretty obviously the only show they really enjoyed watching and discussing.

It's like, lets do a parody of Whiplash where we all pretend we're bad improv students but also bring in Armen who, if he even took up Besser's offer of a free UCB class, would be a legit awful improv student. I still need to listen to the last 20 minutes of it but it's already one of my favorite episodes.

Armen grounds every scene with his borderline aspergers. I love it.

Oh gently caress. I don't know if my second-hand-awkward could take that I4H. It was fine on who charted because kulap is a nurturing presence who makes everything okay, to listen to Matt destroy Armen with no safety net...

Matt Besser posted:

I was on Who Charted? when Howard wasn't there and Kulap had Armen Weitzman guest hosting, and she had me on to dress him down because that's the dynamic we have when we do comedy, Armen and I. And to me he's the dope and I'm the angry straight man, and I just dressed him down for an hour. And to me it was funny and I think we both had a good time, but afterwards some people were Twittering me going "That's great that you gave him poo poo, he really deserves that!" or "Hey you were a little harsh on him blah blah blah" and to both those people I just feel like Do you not get that I'm playing a character and so is he? Half of what I was saying to him was "You didn't take your improv classes seriously" — I don't care if he took his improv classes seriously. He doesn't need improv classes, he's got his comedic voice, he knows what he does in comedy. It's just where we went with it, and I can't even remember the stuff we talked about, but none of it do I really care about in the real world, it was all there just for fodder for me to have something to yell out to Armen. So people who don't get that tone — I find that interesting, and like you said, it's a weeding out process, because some people hear that and go "Well that's mean!" or they'll listen to Armen and go "He's dumb!" or "He's dopey!" and it's like he's not dopey, he's doing a character! He's playing that up, that's what we want for him. He's playing up being a dope so I can play up being the angry straight man, and it's a funny dynamic, and if you choose to take it as real life, that's on you.

This podcast is fairly decent, though on early episodes you can tell that they listen to CBB and try a little too hard to be Scott. That being said, it is a funny podcast. They have had a few earwolf podcast regulars on.

Also I am absolutely certain that they are not gay. They do assert that early on. They are just very much confident in themselves that they can host a two hour podcast about Gilmore girls. I applaud that level of confidence. It takes balls for two straight men to say 'I don't give two shits. I'm going to talk at length about the fashion of Gilmore girls.'

I figured I was going out on a limb but the only epi I listened to was the Sean one where they started listing states where they're considered, legally, the gilmore guys. Guess I've got "egg on my face."
