Id much rather have Gemberling and Gabrus, guys who grew up watching the films but don’t hold them as the epicenter of their existence, rather than some dweeb who acts like an encyclopedia of all things Star Wars.

On the one hand I do kind of agree with this, but on the other hand I think that as Lauren Lapkus and Nicole Byer have absolutely no knowledge or context of Star Wars and use the guest to ask questions to fill them in on things, the guest should at least know bare minimum basics.

If you think bare minimum basics for appreciating Star Wars movies include citing Kurosawa and where wipe transitions came from, you’re part of the problem.

I’ve been hanging around Star Wars nerds my whole life and no ones tried to talk to me about or brag about knowing that stuff. Seems like more of a cinephile thing. Which I would take over someone explaining vibroblades to me.

SunshineDanceParty posted:The fact that they haven't brought up samurai movies at all makes them bad expert fans. Gabrus brings them up in this episode, though. "They're basically samurai movies, which rules." He didn't start name-dropping a bunch, but he's clearly reading the room and is being light on the extraneous details. He even says "Oh yeah, I could ramble off a bunch of bullshit at you guys, but why would you care?"

Newcomers has a pretty fun premise for a podcast, but maybe Lapkus and Byer just aren't the right hosts for it. They were on their phones the entire time they "tried" to watch The Empire Strikes Back, which is pretty lame and doesn't really lead to a lot of interesting discussion.

Can’t disagree, Carl Alarm was amazing for a one off and the Gino Lombardo show is like a multi episode version of that.

Matt Apodaca was the guest producer on the latest HDTGM mini-episode. Didn't really contribute anything huge, but it was just weird to hear him talking to Paul Scheer now that I've gotten used to him on HDTGP.

Also, I forget which podcast, but one recent one Paul was on, he mentioned that child protective services was called on his parents once. I feel like story that has to be the ultimate pinnacle of the sad Paul childhood stories. Terror Sweat posted:Every good Star Wars film was ripping off other cool movies, the ones that didn’t are all poo poo. You might as well talk about where the good ones came from And wouldn't you know it, their guest for the ROTJ episode makes just this point. (Their guest was Emily Yoshida who has also done multiple Star Wars episodes of Blank Check) Also, how could she have mentioned that the Holiday Special is about Wookiees without adding it's about Chewie's wife and son? I feel like they would actually like to know that considering their thoughts on Chewbacca.

In memory of The Good Place let's all reminisce about that time Jameela Jamil told an extended story about a dog who used to jack off with his paws while watching a dog park out a window and compared it to Sean's relationship with Hollywood

That's one of my favorite episodes of the entire show and it's a go to relisten. Jamil clicks with them immediately and Sean is clearly in the head space for some great self depreciation. It works really well as an introduction to HH too.

Carl Tart on off book. He is great, and I always forget how talented Jessica is. She has an amazing voice. I just can’t get into random eps, so that sucks.

To me, Off Book is... less than the sum of its parts. Everyone is talented and the songs are good and the improv is fun and it's all just kinda... there. A few early ones connected with me, and I've been a regular at live musical improv shows before so I like the form, but I find myself having every episode I try paused 1/3 in with no desire to start it up again. I was hoping it would finally click with me like Spont eventually did, but I think it's just a giant wall of silliness without enough grounding. But I can't fault anyone involved for not giving it their all or being super talented.

Yeah, I only listen when I love the guest or when people are raving about the episode (eg Attorney At Love) and even then I notice pretty quickly that they repeat the same song styles a LOT. They are all insanely talented though.
