Drunkboxer posted:I liked the story PFT told on the CBB best ofs about how Lauren Lapkus asked him why so many people were messaging her about eating her hair. That was phenomenal. Poor girl. The real message of this year's CBB Best Ofs was "Please stop inundating us with your stupid-rear end Twitter messages." Back To 99 posted:Got a link to that episode of the reality SHOW!!! show/Hollywood Handbook: An Insider's Guide to Kicking Butt and Taking Names in the Red-Carpet-Lined Back Hallways of this Industry we call Showbiz? Neil Campbell, Our Close Employee It's at the end, and it also comes right after the "episode" of Neil Campbell's science podcast teaching you about how to kidnap a child. I absolutely understand why QuickBooks was upset, though to be fair Sean never specifies that your accountant's kid is underage.

wafflesnsegways posted:I almost never enjoy "funny" podcast ads. It makes you raise up your listener defenses, and they almost never give you what you listen to the podcast for. I feel like ads are always better with multiple people. Scott or PFT just extolling the virtues of a thing doesn't do much, regardless of how funny either of them might be. But in a show like HH, having the two people to work off of each other adds something to it. It's especially fun when the sponsor lets them add a lot to the copy. My Brother, My Brother, and Me is really good at this as well. The only one-man ads I've ever liked were Bill Burr's and Norm MacDonald's.

What was the Hollywood Handbook ad that turned into an elaborate scheme about having your friend dress up in a suit of dog hair to prove to your boss that you aren't allergic to dogs or whatever?

It's really cool how this week's HH (Brett's House) starts with them making GBS threads on them, turns out to be him going along with it, and then turns into them kind-of-making GBS threads on him and kind of just doing runners.

I remember hearing on one of their podcasts like 3-4 years ago that she and Scott were trying to have kids and were doing in vitro stuff but clearly it hasn't worked. I imagine that disappointment, combined with her lack of talent (while being surrounded by very talented people) has driven her slowly crazy. Sad really.

I tend to only listen to episodes with guests I like, in more recent episodes (that I've caught) I feel like they adhere to strictly to the format for my liking.

One if the main objectives of this thread seems to be psychoanalyzing Besser and explaining exactly how bad of a person he is. I don't know why Kulap should be off limits other than everyone trying to white knight their podcast waifu.

I despise lootcrate because a friend of mine gets it and tries to pawn off the garbage he doesn't want as presents. Also, yeah when people in this thread attack Besser it's on the choices he makes for his podcast, not as his worth as a human being. Kulap seems great, even though Who Charted has been terrible for like two years. And she is very cognizant of the fact that she's not a comic and speaks on her worries about that openly, yet still holds her own nearly always. It's more impressive than not, really.

The only good thing about lootcrate is watching Ashens review them. If nerds weren't so easily pleased by promotional tat, they'd see it for the scam it so obviously is. I don't think there's a single item in the latest one that should be valued over a few $3, and yes of course it has a funko pop doll that doesn't resemble the character in the slightest.

But she and Scott seem like a nice couple and they (mostly Scott, cause I don't listen to WC) have brought me tons of free entertainment so I only wish them the best. VVV What are her vanity projects? Besides the documentary? I mean I get how someone might think "Origin Story" might not be that interesting but ultimately it's all in how the final doc comes out. Are there other projects? I'm honestly curious because I don't know them. It it the socks? And for the record I did, myself, try to murder her once.
