That's still a beautiful episode. When I saw Todd was the guest I knew just what they were going for and it was nice and cathartic.

I think Foam Corner came from Harris tripping over his words and Scott jumping on it like he does. And Reggie for sure sang "Harrison's Foam Corner".

I feel like it was a guest that misheard it as Foam Corner, and Harris and Scott both jumped on it.

I'll probably relisten to all the Harris eps again. They're all great.

It's like every Spring brings a reminder that Harris is dead.

Reggie and Harris were guests on an episode when Scott asked Reggie to make a Harris' Phone Corner theme song. Reggie misheard it and made the Foam song, and everyone liked it too much to redo it.

Foam corner shows were always like Mike and Omar taking out the trash. Good epps!

It's good but also infuriating. He knew exactly how stupid and self destructive all of that poo poo was, especially after his first overdose, but welp. Being angry at a dead guy for being dead doesn't help anything, especially when he didn't owe me the jokes I was enjoying for free in the first place, but it's still a real downer. At some point when someone's eyes are that obviously open I feel like you almost have to view it as a form of suicide.

To be somewhat fair, as a guy with some forms of mental illness and who has been self destructive from birth I can totally relate. Even if I've never done drugs. I know I'm, as you state, "stupid and self destructive" and there really is nothing I can do about it. I know it's common for people seeing that to say "welp" but, really, we say "welp" as well. You can totally be mad at Harris. I can't speak for him but as someone who's still alive, at least for a short while longer, I'm just as angry at myself as anyone else could be angry at me. " I hate me as much as you hate me". All I'm trying to say is that we feel that infuriating feeling that you feel. That's the common ground.

E: I'm a poor communicator and I hope that makes sense. It's all just gobbledygook when I reread it.

Harris was great at playing the laid back guy but that podcast showed he really was very hosed up and in deep trouble. Also pete holmes is the worst loving interviewer ever.

Just to be clear, I said his actions were stupid, not that he was. He was a smart guy who did some very stupid things, despite knowing better. I just wonder if he had any idea how loved he was while he was still alive; it's not an original thought, but it's too bad it takes someone dying for that to become clear sometimes. Anyway, I'm not trying to shame the dead guy, and it's no consolation at all that you're angry at yourself either, it's just hard to listen to the podcast where he talks about his drug addiction and how he was forced to give it up after a near death experience while knowing where it ended up not terribly long after.

That's addiction :smith: It's hosed up and makes you do really stupid poo poo that you know is bad but it convinces you that yes in fact it is cool and good to do and is also really good at pushing literally everything else important out of your life. It's tough to describe.

It also needs stating repeatedly that he was a victim of being prescribed opioids after a back injury, which often leads down this path. Poor guy didn’t stand a chance.

Scott sounded conflicted when he talked about doing recreational drugs with Harris for Analyze Phish. Smoking some weed and doing the occasional hallucinogen is pretty minor stuff, but it's different when you find out the person you're doing them with has been secretly a heroin addict.

Yeah, it's the sad reality for way too many people. I have a close family member who's addicted to opioids and thinks he's smarter than the drug. "It may happen to other people, but it won't happen to me" is a very common thing to hear from opiate dependents in reference to ODing.
