So, while I don't totally disagree with Howard, does anyone else think that he's being incredibly mean and disrespectful to George here (within the first 10 minutes)? He's pretty much saying to him 'This documentary that's being made about you and Japanese internment camps sounds boring and terrible, and this thing that's important to you is pointless'.

:smith:

EngineerJoe posted:

Yeah, he's really mean to George sometimes.

On one hand, he's an rear end in a top hat. On the other, he's honest and that's what used to make Howard special. Would we want him to fawn over something he didn't believe in? Still he had some terrific answers to the questions his interviewer asked him when he got serious, he heaped a ton of praise onto George, and George seemed very appreciative that Howard did that for him.

Pretty sure he was just replaying this conversation in his head and was still pissed Artie couldnt do the show and shoot beer league at the same time.

Howard spending 20 minutes talking to HPE about how much he shits. They should do some sort of special where they weigh his poo poo to find out exactly how much it actually weighs. That'd make this conversation more interesting.

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.
Sal is like prison educated, it's the best. He hears big words but doesn't understand their meaning or context so he just throws them into conversation and looks retarded.

Just getting him to ramble about anything is usually gold because there's like a 100% chance he says something dumb and possibly racist.

Did they ask him about being a straight up criminal who conned his own mother out of money to pay for private jet flights?

Glad to see I am not alone. The original idea of a one off Lenny/Ronnie creep-a-thon sounded like it could be... interesting, but since then the show has completely used up the tiny value he had 100x over.

It's awful, isn't it? Morning zoo radio might even consider it hacky. Howard has become the person he used to mock. This is one of the more frustrating examples of it.

The email bit was great. Robin still can't handle email in 2016 even with an assistant and two phones. She''ll never ever admit when she can't do something, so it's always Howard or Gary's fault.

It was also great when they were making fun of the pastor speaking in tongues and right away Fred started playing clips of Riley Martin's gibberish.

Listening to 12/05/07, highlights include:

- Artie "comes out of the closet" to George in the best acting work of his entire career aside from the time he totally acted like he wanted those queer eye guys to gently caress a straight guy in the rear end;

- Richard's dad calls to tell him some bad news from home: Taaaaaaaco Tiiiico closed down

- Dave Attell sits in on the news

Ugh that Queer Eye bit.........Artie acting even more homophobic than usual (then trying to play it off as if everyone had a great time and was totally cool with him yelling "human being" every three seconds). I give those guys credit for not just quitting halfway through and telling him to go gently caress himself.

I remember a caller during that segment who really laced into Artie pretty good. Also, who cares how drunk he was, alcohol just brings out the person you really are most of the time.
