O inside scoop on the youtube comedy video

So funny We did that for YouTube Comedy week and some moronic comedy-averse exec there was outraged and yanked that whole segment. I didn't know it even still existed. Glad to see it. and no money exchanged hands though back when Norm gambled we used to play poker and bet thousands of dollars on a game we invented called "Crazy Motherfucker" which was a hi-Lo game that allowed you to buy cards at end of hand for hundreds of dollars.

Awesome news, depressing response from the boys at Reddit, Sam Hyde would be a terrible guest. Tim Heidecker might be good, though.

Jon Lovitz would be the best possible guest because Norm would have 0 compunction about belittling him for an hour and change. I also like the idea of Letterman and Jim Downey.

If they can find a self important guest that thinks they get Norm's humor but doesn't really and that they can make endless fun of without them really realizing it... that, in this author's opinion, would be the best possible guest.

I still maintain this is why the Todd Glass episodes are the best ever.

Todd Glass was the best, but Gottfried was awesome also using the same material. It just shows how great Norm is - he can make stuff work equally well whether his partner is willing to cooperate or not.

I think that Spade might be my favourite guest, just for how well he gets into abusing Adam.

Spade, Gottfried, and Swardson are the best podcasts. All are with seasoned pros of comedy who help Norm rip on Adam Egret. Coincidence?

glass is so mirthlessly awful and oblivious to how intolerable he is. yet with all the legends the podcast managed to snag, he got the one of the only double episodes so Norm could simply mock him for longer. lol

Todd Glass is a taste you clearly haven't acquired yet. Some people like to guzzle jizz, some don't; I don't, but I don't find fault in those who do. You're just the kind of person who does and that's okay. Just call you ADAM EGET!

By MissPammy VINE VOICE on August 25, 2016
Format: Hardcover Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
I've always enjoyed Norm Macdonald on SNL, and he is--BY FAR--the best KFC Colonel Sanders to date. I did not, however, enjoy his memoir, although for the most part it was well written. There is humor in it, but it isn't the kind of humor I've known and loved Macdonald for. It's very dark humor forged in what might be the insanity of his mind and the brutality of some shocking incidents that he recounts. Although it's difficult to tell how much of what he writes might be tongue in cheek, my impression of it is that much of it really happened, and his black humor is a way of trying to make unfunny and tragic events humorous. As much as I like Macdonald's work as an actor and a comedian, I can't recommend this ultimately depressing book.

Who are these retards who get advanced copies and how can I become one of them?

Not the best episode, but still funny. Seems like guests have to "get" Norm's style for things to go well, otherwise things keep falling flat. Merchant claims to admire Norm, but doesn't laugh at the "this guy's a real jerk" bit?? Still had good moments and I'm excited the podcast is finally back.

I can't decide between Merchant being genuinely nonplussed or playing along. From what he said he's watched the show before so must know how it can get, and possibly has heard the Albert Fish bit before.

Norm was great but jesus Stephen Merchant is a moron. He claims to be a fan but it's like he didn't understand anything Norm was trying to do at all. How do you not laugh at the "I mean this guy was a real jerk" line?

I used to think Merchant was actually doing a pretty clever shtick in his various appearances on podcasts and interviews where he pretends to be humourless and boring. But I've realised now that he's not pretending and he's actually just a bit dim.
