manyak posted:I normally dont like live episodes because the audience can get annoying and too into it and it changes the dynamic, but the new hollywood handbook is good because the crowd doesnt react at all Seriously. Did they record it at UC Berkeley Sunset? I hear they have great acoustics. But really, how the hell was that crowd so dead? What the gently caress is wrong with LA audiences? You can see the same dynamic in effect on The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail - every week there's a cavalcade of great comedians, performing in a very intimate space, and the audience (Who chose to be there, mind you!) never rises above a mild chuckle.

People here in the Hollywood Handbook circle jerk/recommend me a starting episode thread might forget, but only 60 people on Earth listen to this podcast and I'd say about 24 of them were in that room.

The crowd also wasn't mic'd well. That has a huge effect. It can make a great episode sound like a dud, since the pauses for laughter after jokes land suddenly sound like awkward silences after jokes don't land.

I think he's just kind of frustrated at the amount of attention/praise Larry David's impression is getting when his own Bernie is really a lot better and has way more time put into it. Like he's been doing Bernie for months at his live shows/on podcasts/videos etc without really getting much recognition, and then the SNL debate video gets like 3 million views in a day

Does Adomian's impression happen to include looking like Bernie Sanders? Because that's really the most important bit on an SNL impression.

Sooo, are they still planning to lock "archived" (shows older than 6 months old) episodes behind the howl app? Last time I checked they said they delayed it until the Android app launched. Well, the android app is out now and yup it's super bad so I'm sticking with Pocketcasts

The hosed up thing is he seems to think it's a PERSONAL slight.quote:Advice to young comedians: Doesn't matter how good your poo poo is, if you don't have a TV show and a team of publicists you don't exist. quote:ICYMI: the entire media decided that I'm not a famous comedian and my #BernieSanders impression doesn't exist: https://youtu.be/BGRAonpLeQg Like, yes, how DARE anyone NOT know the legendary Adomian Does Bernie Sanders bit.

Adomian's impression is good, but it relies a bit much on the nested percentages joke. His Jesse Ventura is a lot better.

Adomian's crazy for being mad at SNL for picking Larry David just because of what an obvious choice it was -- people have been making Curb Your Enthusiasm videos about Sanders for months now. I think Adomian has a point in that his exaggerated (and clearly superior) impression would have more potential to be a definitive role in the public consciousness in the same way Dana Carvey's Bush I, Darrell Hammond's Clinton or Will Ferrell's Bush II all were, but the difference is that he's not actually a cast member on SNL. Larry David isn't either, but on top of resembling Sanders, he actually did write for the show at one point and is a massive celebrity in the comedy world.

Not to mention, if Sanders actually does somehow win, Adomian would have had a perfect audition piece if he were actually interested in being on the show. I doubt he would, but there's no chance of it now. He has to have realized it wouldn't be sustainable to keep having David on and they'd need a regular with an impression.

I honestly think Adomian is too good for SNL. Hasn't stopped a lot of people, though.

Pat Mustard posted:Nope! I just went and got a bunch of old Comedy Bang Bangs about half an hour ago. Yeah, that's kinda what I'm asking. They were supposed to lock those old episodes to where you can only get them from the Howl app or on the website and not from the normal podcast feed you use with other podcast apps. I'm still able to download all the old episodes of Earwolf's stuff though so does anyone know if that's still the plan?

They'll probably leave that poo poo open for a while longer due to how bad the rollout of the apps has been, and then someday the paywall will come down as best as they can manage it, with no warning. Seems like the Earwolf kinda thing to do. The Nerd Poker guys made it sound like Earwolf has a whole building and is a whole... thing. Is Earwolf actually successful so far, or are they borrowing from Peter to pay Paul? I never know if this podcasting business is actually making money or not.

If you're a fan of PFT laughs, this weeks spontaneanation is for you. This one almost beat the whole roll of quarters laugh. Maria Blasucci is the absolute best, and this one really goes off the rails in the best way.

I hope Jeremy Carter is a more regular guest going forward, he killed it.
