I thought it was fine - reminded me of some of Kyle Mooney's videos. It's always fun to hear Tom curse, too.

Sucks that Tom got cut out of Ant-Man, would have lost my mind if I'd seen that in the cinema.

GimpChimp posted:Genuinely not sure how someone could be into the Jon Wurster calls and at the same time think the Hollywood Handbook guys are unbearable. Yeah I was hooked from the first time I listened to HH after Tom had them on and then went on their show. I've listened to about a dozen of their episodes so far and I'm just making my way through the backlog when I'm out of 'new' stuff from this week. It's hilarious. The Nick Kroll episode and the Ben Schwartz one both destroyed me.

Since the show left WFMU I was pretty bummed out about never getting to listen to the music parts anymore. Today I looked around on Spotify and found a playlist for 2014/2015. https://play.spotify.com/user/jouster/playlist/4GZ6yuUpcxbMJn3kaYx5ar And also here's about 2000 songs Tom played during the WFMU years! https://play.spotify.com/user/1224693779/playlist/32dyqfv10Vh3R5WTkJxP7E https://play.spotify.com/user/mm220/playlist/4rqzQ7ukorTTkNcnG8EToL

Awesome man, thanks! Can't even begin to know how many album purchases I have made because of the opening of his show.

Fantastic episode this week - Huebel and Scheer were great, and the laser whip is back and better than ever. I was also quite pleased to see, when I checked after listening, that Adrian Monk's confirmed death had already been added to his Wikipedia page. Praise Him!

I unironically love both Monk and Tom Scharpling's hatred of Monk.

So the caller who was a pro wrestler that Tom suggested be named Dumm Oaf won the tag team titles at a WWE event over the weekend.

Dumm Oaf called a few weeks ago - I think to talk about wrestling at The Gathering of the Juggalos? I'm a big fan of Tom's suggestion for his new wrestling character: a Springsteen fan who has been frozen since the 80's and just woke up.

Dumm Oaf was a call from years ago. The guy who called about the Gathering was some other dude.

I bought tickets to the Toronto show. Interview with Damian Abraham this week was great but that's because I really like that guy, it wasn't the usual Best Show, which I miss.

That guy who says just whacky poo poo and pretends its normal is the worst for me, " oh yeah, that's my monster..." So weird. I heard him on a best show best calling in as tom's brother, with an equally bad schtick.

WrathOfBlade posted:You miss out on like 95% of the humor in the Wurster calls until you've been listening for a while and can pick out all the callbacks and meta-jokes. One prime example that comes to mind recently, was the ever increasing the character can't think of the name of an abba tune whose lyrics become more and more misogynistic with each call week after week. I don't think it would be as funny if you are jumping in randomly.
