Ehhh I think Merchant is funny but you have to get british humor.
Yeah, they're both funny, and I think it's ridiculous to say that either didn't "get" the other's humor; they just don't play off of each other all that smoothly.

I didn't think Merchant was funny at all but there was lots of good norm stuff there thats for sure.

I thought Merchant was hilarious, but also not enough Eget bashing. Norm seemed to ramble a bit to be honest. *ducks*


e: I did like what he said about his style, one big punch line and a winding path to get there.

It wasn't a standout episode by any means but the senile uncle line from Merchant slayed me

Started slow, but Norm eventually got things going. A very good episode overall.

I enjoyed it. Bit of a weird vibe when Norm wouldn't stop bringing up how great Gervais was. But I think it all worked out in the end. The jokes in the jokes segment were unusually hammy though.

Loved the new episode. Merchant was good and Norm had some great moments.

Look under your seats - it's Adam Eget licking your rear end in a top hat out and giving himself throat cancer at the same time! He's multi-talented!

Norm was on Howard today, which I found out you can stream for a month for free with just a phone number and an email address (I used a student email and it was instant)

Just sign up, go to Howard 100, and you can navigate to the interview on Howard's show.

I thought it was just mildly amusing for a while but now I'm halfway through it and by the time Norm goes to prison it hits a hilarious fever pitch of derangement that feels like the greatness of his standup. Recommended. Also, it's full of Adam Eget jokes.

Yeah. I would say that if you are here reading this thread and listening to Norm's podcast you should absolutely give the audiobook a shot.

So will the Hader episode not be uploaded to youtube? Seems there has been more delay than with the first one.

It's up now and it's a great one, especially if - like me - you're a sucker for any talk about SNL.

But even better, Norm mentions at the end that Letterman might be a future guest. I'm gonna try to not get my hopes up, but it would be amazing if it did happen.

Awesome! Letterman is in an I'm retired so I don't give a gently caress mode, as far as I can tell, so I wouldnt be shocked if he made an appearance.
