Before we engage we should hang back and study their tactics.
The answer to the question "Do you want to meet (person from Harmontown audience)?" should always be "gently caress no!" gently caress Dave Klein.

Also, Andy Kindler is and always has been awesome.

Came here to also post gently caress Dave Klein, what a bad choice to let him on the stage, didn't they figure out he had nothing to offer from the first time they brought his dumb rear end up?

In fact, the last time someone worthwhile was brought up on stage it was Spencer.

It's both thrilling and terrifying.
Which one is he again? I haven't heard the latest episode.

Most of the people they bring on stage from the audience are horrible. In particular, the people who you can tell actively wanted to be on stage are the worst.

He's alright, not any worse than any of the other people they bring up. I enjoyed the rap even though Dave's part made no sense and didn't rhyme, it sounded like it did though.

He didn't really have anything to say other than how he's creepy and how "genius is creep", and then he listed a bunch of celebrities who are creeps/geniuses.

I take back what I said about this guy being a garden variety attention whore, he was particularly insufferable this episode, and in retrospect he's always been this spergy/oversells everything that comes out of his mouth. They really need to stop enabling this guy, he's awful.

Is everyone just listening to hate it or something? It's not like the show is anything more than Dan Harmon exposing himself with improv bits and role playing thrown in every once in a while... like, what the gently caress do you guys expect this to be? There is literally no plan to the show and the Dave's of the world are what keep this thing going, Dave filled a good 20 minutes what else do you want?

All I keep hearing from you guys is "The show was better back in the day when everything was unplanned and poorly put together", literally nothing has changed.

Why is it so hard for you to accept that being critical about one relatively minor aspect of something doesn't mean that you're hate-consuming it? I literally haven't said anything else about the show or what I expect from it besides not wanting to hear from one lovely guest, I'm not exactly lamenting the golden days here. He filled 20 minutes with cloying bullshit, and I don't expect people like Dave Klein or some other random guest to hit homeruns here, but if Dan wants a guest to tread water for that long, then the only reasonable expectation I can have from the show after listening since the beginning is for that guest to not be an annoying gimmick. You obviously aren't as put off by him as I am and that's fine, but it's a little ridiculous that you can't understand that not liking a bit character doesn't mean I hate the show.

Reasonably you shouldn't expect anything at all from a free podcast, even if you've been listening "since the beginning". Though I guess if you're a subscriber you should reasonably expect to receive a stream several days before the podcast is released, other than that I can't imagine what you think is "reasonably expected" from the content of the show.

I'm not keeping track of your posts, so excuse me for quoting you specifically.

I just don't see why people poo poo on the show so much, I like Dave and I liked his rap. I also liked how awkward it seemed for Aubrey to have to interact with Dave and Dan.

I must have overlooked the subscription terms that explained what I'm entitled to when listening to this podcast. If you don't like something just say you don't like it, there is nothing that is "reasonably expected" with free content.

Wait, what happened to Spencer? When Dino came out Dan said, "We can talk about Spencer, right?" but then they got sidetracked onto that Aerosmith song.

That was probably the best Dino's ever been, mostly because they didn't give him enough time to be "ironically" sexist and racist. He's pretty great as long as he's just telling weird sex stories.

There were a few that were ok, but most were garbage. The two I can think of off the top of my head that I thought were decent were golden bee's roomate and that chick that studied racist brain activities. But then again maybe those both counted more as guests than audience shouters.

Hey goldberg did Jeff ever get in your roomates latex pants?

I love that Golden Bee's roommate made it into the Harmontown documentary, but not the man himself. It's such an amazing burn.

To be fair, she's one of three(?) black women to ever speak on stage. (Star and another one maybe during the tour? Maybe one every 60+ episodes?)

Jeff was with this amazing Yoga Instructor at the time, although he's single lately. There was no Davis/David action.

Edit: They deliberately put in a reaction shot of me into the first few minutes of the show. I'm sure if you did the Somerville show it'd be all Adam, all the time.
