The mince pie episode was one of my favorites and I appreciated the callback. That said, gently caress Jan.

I'm sure that this request has been asked before, but I didn't see it in any recent posts: I started listening to the Dollop when they dropped their episodes on Trump, and while I'm not a regular listener (the audio recordings from some of their live shows tend to be a turn-off for me, so I usually end up skipping those episodes), my favorite episodes have been about other assholes like McCain, Bush, Reagan, etc. or events like the Veterans' Stand or the Third Wave. Does anyone have any recommendations for similar episodes?

scary ghost dog posted:and, of course, the LAPD saga I wasn't fully onboard with the Dollop, I thought it was funny, I thought it was good, but I didn't see why it was so popular. The LAPD Saga (#39, #40, #42, and #44) are all awesome. I also didn't recommend it because it didn't seem like it fit with your list, but I think that The Falling Pilot (#247) is one of my all time favorite episodes.

FlamingLiberal posted:Thomas Kincaid is another really great one about an absolute lunatic My mom had a small part time job working in a doll house gift shop, and the upper floor was dedicated to Thomas Kinkade paintings that she had to manage, and used to tell me that dealing with his company was awful. I knew he was kind of lovely and hated in the art community but I never knew how bad he truly was.

Digital Jedi posted:Just listened to this per your post and you are not lying. Holy poo poo was that crazy at every turn. Phantom of the Open had some great names, especially Gene Pachecki and Troy Atlantis. The New York to Paris Auto Race live ep with James Adomian is also a really good crazy story. Obviously, since it's about a race from New York to Paris using automobiles, not amphibious vehicles. The Two Indigenous Actors episode is pretty good, nothing super crazy in the story itself (using other episodes of The Dollop as a comparison). But at one point (I forget how and why), it's brought up that the guest, Bert Kreischer, has a quicksand fetish, and he goes from trying to downplay it and get back to the story, to eventually just leaning into it and saying, "yeah, I've seen that video before, it's pretty good, but here's another one I like better." It gets a little weird, but not too bad. It's mostly a fun little tangent where everybody learns more about Bert Kreischer than they wanted to, and then they go back to talking about Jay Silverheels and Iron-eyes Cody.

Try some of the lighter / happy ones, too. Action park! Is good. Battle of hayes pond. Phantom of the open is an all timer. Pedestrianism. Disco demolition and 10 cent beer night. Otto in the attic. Whalesplosion. JET PACK MADNESS. The falling pilot. Ross perot. Ludwig leichardt. Mince pie. Abalonia. The rube All of the reverse dollops are exceptional.

My favorite episodes are the ones like The Jet-Pack episode and the Bone Wars, about two dudes in a niche field who have a minor dispute that leads to a growing life-long feud that continuously escalates in stupidity and pettiness.

What I most love is that neither of them came up with the idea, they just copied some other rednecks who already had truck nuts.

The second London live episode (The Rabbit Situation) just went up and it is, as Dave says, a little bit spicy. I highly recommend it. Edit: and my long-time favourite is a tie between The Rube and 10 Cent Beer Night. The James Otis episode gets an honourable mention just for Gareth's reaction at the end.

Alaois posted:There were two, problem is the first one was made in 1908 and the other in 1965 Are you talking about the movie with Tony Curtis and Jack Lemon for the 1965? Don’t get me wrong I love The Great Race, but I really think it could be described as “Inspired By” at best. I certainly don’t recall a giant pie fight in the Dollop version. That being said, I think a movie that held close to the actual facts and people involved could be make a hilarious movie with the right cast and director.
