Also, I don't even mind her much normally but her Tom Can't Complain call was insufferable. SoupyTwist posted:I don't mind Kat from Raleigh that much but airing forum drama on the show.... yikes. Know Such Peace posted:Kat thinks all the criticisms are coming from one dude. Also re: Tom Can't Complain, a couple people seem to think the last caller ("Connor"?) is Nathan Fielder. I definitely noticed during the calls that he sounded like Nathan but I just chalked it up to using a really neutral affect to be annoying

Hahaha I didn't hear it the first time, but going back (~2:33) it really is pretty similar. There's more moments that sound like him than those that don't.

Talks about Nathan Fielder calling in on the Tom Can't Complain show makes me think about how great it would be if Paul F. Tompkins called in using a fake name. That would be an all time great show but probably for reasons most fans would not like.

There were little joke details in his call that were too specific. Like having to turn the page to sing the rest of Podcast Heroes to read the lyrics.

It makes sense. Tom and/or the Best Show crew usually include one or two fake ‘real callers’ in bits.

Not that anyone will but I'd like to take this time to ask those who are listening to not give any spoilers as to which call is E-cigarettes for legs guy. The surprise is the best part

Vapetriloquism cracked me up good, loved Tom's commitment to a bit where neither element translates to audio. Luckily, there are some video highlights: https://www.instagram.com/p/BYr2o3ejIdh/

I laughed so hard the day I first learned that Gary the squirrel is an actual puppet and he uses it every time Gary is on the show

A Giant Dog and Sweet Spirit are two great bands and I thought Sabrina was better than most in studio guests. Good ep but not a mandatory listen imho

The show peaked with the e cig call. I really wasn't a fan of the guests.

I like the way Tom says "pizza" and how it's almost always in an indignant manner.

I stopped by H&H on the way home from work and said hi to Mike yesterday, he's a real nice guy. The barflies seemed incredulous about this "radio show" he's supposedly on.

I bought a Massa's shirt from apmike.bandcamp.com like a month ago and it still hasn't arrived. I bought a headshot at the same time and it arrived promptly. Tried emailing Mike, no response. What should I do?

I helped Mike recently with an Upcoming Bandcamp Product & I think he's just not the best at keeping up with electronic correspondence? Maybe try shooting him another e-mail.

I meant the song that plays to before the start of the show, but that's a good tune too.

I know the current theme version is by Mr. and Mrs. Paycheck. Eventually I'll just wind up ripping it from an episode but Tom always talks over the beginning these days This week's episode was excellent btw

I'm about 75% sure that song is a cover of Action by Sweet

Liam is the best caller in the history of the show. e: I would recommend listening to the episode until Rebecca Sugar comes into the studio. She's fine but feels like the rest of the show was just awkward dorks calling in to ask the world's dumbest questions about her cartoon. "What would [x character]'s favorite ice cream flavor be?" ughhhhh The Berzerker fucked around with this message at 17:08 on Oct 4, 2017 |

Liam was on fire. A little punchy, he was so great. I'm still laughing at "1MPH" Rebecca Sugar was kinda amazing. Relentlessly positive, kept probing callers with great questions, gave really sincere answers. I'm not the biggest Steven Universe fan, it's pretty saccharin sweet, but she is great! I also got to twitter chat with that woman who runs that DIY rave scene in Cleveland, they're pretty great. Overall, an excellent ep.

So that's two weeks in a row where Kazoo Man called in and Tom didn't lure him into being his normal antagonistic self. I'm not entirely sure if Tom noticed who it was either time.

That guy sounded like he had either been drinking all day trying to prepare himself for the move or he was just pulled out of a football game where he got severely concussed. He was trying to be snarky but came off like he had no idea what he was saying. But it was killing me why his voice was so familiar, he must be kazoo man.

Absolutely was Kazoo Man. I don't remember what his gimmick was last week, but he had some other cockamamie story. Tom's usually pretty good at sussing out bullshitters, especially repeat bullshitters (E-Cigs notwithstanding, probably because everyone loves him).

Yeah that was definitely Kazoo Man. His schtick is generally funny because there isn't a nice guest there to temper Tom's anger at him. Without Tom getting mad it's pretty terrible. Also the cringey Stephen Universe fans calling in can sometimes be unintentionally hilarious. "And what grade are you in, Elizabeth?" "Um, I'm in college..."
