Seltzer posted:The Jay Leno episode was actually quite good. I was expecting Joe to be overly reverent and for them to talk about cars the majority of the time but neither of those things happened. It ended up being a pretty cool comedy history lesson (well beyond "Let me tell you about Boston comedy in the 80s") and it was a short easy listen (1hr 30 mins). I'd recommend it to anyone else who was skeptical like me. My only complaint was that Joe kept trying to get Jay to dish out dirt on Sam Kinison when it was apparent that Jay didn't want say too much. On the other hand, Jay is the one who first brought up Kinison not being such a good guy, but Joe kept bringing it up. Granted, Joe has stated many times that Kinison is one of his favorite comedians, but still. It was a good episode though, and I definitely recommend it.

Jay Leno's stand up is what it is, but he is a good interview and I don't actually mind listening to him. Odd dude, but interesting.

They mentioned letterman briefly, but didn't touch Jay leaving and then taking the show back.

Did Joe bring up the time that Jay hid in an NBC executive's closet to spy on a meeting?

willie_dee posted:Lol what? You need to read the Late Shift. It's all about how Leno backdoored his way into Carson's chair. quote:On the night of January 6, 1992, in a feat of corporate espionage chronicled in Bill Carter’s book on the late-night wars, The Late Shift, Leno hid in a closet-like office beneath his Burbank studio to listen in on a conference call taking place among NBC executives. They were discussing who should follow Johnny Carson as host of The Tonight Show—Leno or David Letterman. While they argued, Leno took notes “on what people thought of him and his show,” Carter reported. “Best of all he knew exactly who was for him and who was against him.” Seriously. Read the book. It's excellent. Viper_3000 fucked around with this message at 05:31 on Sep 16, 2015 |

The Jay Leno episode was pretty good, but Jay came off as such an odd, manipulative poo poo whose attempts at being a human seem really hollow and fake. He's Hollywood incarnate.

I think that social awkwardness you are reading comes more from "possibly autistic car guy" than "soulless Hollywood shark", but I could be wrong.

Jay is a real human being, with feelings and emotions and a thought process. Sadly, they all combine to lead him into being a giant piece of poo poo. e: like seriously, he never loving talked to Conan after he killed his show

He also made a backhanded comment about Conan's tenure when he was mentioning the previous hosts. Something to the affect of, "Steve Allen left the show at number one, Jack Paar left the show at number one, Carson left at number one, I left at number one..." I shut it off after that.

Its true, though. Jay didn't want to leave, Conan asked for his job, Jay played the company man, Conan failed in the timeslot, Jay got his job back and was number 1 again.

Law Cheetah posted:Its true, though. Jay didn't want to leave, Conan asked for his job, Jay played the company man, Conan failed in the timeslot, Jay got his job back and was number 1 again. NBC wanted to keep Conan because he was super hot in the early 2000s, but he wanted the Tonight Show or else he was going elsewhere. They gave it to him but he had to wait years until it was his, presuming Leno would want to retire by then. Leno did not want to retire, and was going to leave for another network. NBC decided to have its cake and eat it too, and convinced Leno to stay with a 10pm time slot talk show. The show was an absolute ratings disaster, and completely killed Conan as a lead in. Leno's ratings were poorer than the Tonight Show, but he is Leno and was proven, plus they both had guarantees in their contract. NBC decided it was best to move Leno to 11:30 for a half hour show, and put the Tonight Show at midnight. Conan did not want to tarnish the legacy of the show, so he declined doing that. Leno could've just bowed out and rode into the sunset, but one of them had to go. Leno refused and they decided to sack Conan, for what I think was around $30 million. The only thing this led to was NBC looking like a bigger joke than previously thought, and owing Conan tens of millions of dollars. Jeff Zucker is a truly awful businessman. e: added more detail CortezFantastic fucked around with this message at 21:00 on Sep 16, 2015 |

Yeah that part was a bit sketchy, him saying rx companies put acetaminophen in there in order to "blow out your liver" sounded to me like a nutty conspiracy. If he worded it differently, like, they put it in there to discourage abuse, then that wouldn't have sounded so crazy. He made a good point, though, it's loving Tylenol, if the patients want it they can take it at the same time. He seems a little naive about the physiological aspects of drug use too, for example when he tried telling Joe effing Rogan that contact highs aren't real.

I just listened to the Christopher Ryan episode...There was a part where Joe said something about how his friend was tripping on mushrooms and his friend asked the mushrooms how humans can keep from overpopulating the Earth, and the mushrooms told him that if each couple only had one baby, they could prevent overpopulation. WHOA MUSHROOMS CAN DO BASIC MATH wow that is fascinating Looking forward to the Milo Yiannopoulos episode!

I disagree with much of what Milo Yiannopoulos said, but man was that an entertaining episode. It's been a while since I've seen Joe get wound up so much, and I don't think he liked not being the loudest, most opinionated guy in the room. When they got to talking about religion and Milo's sexuality, things got pretty heated. Good episode.
