King Lou posted:I try not to comment on Besser too much because a friend of mine was the subject of his wrath in the NY Comedy scene a while back. (Basically said anyone who performed at this show he considered insulting to his friends on SNL was banned from performing at the UCB NY) He also had a really bad rep when I was taking classes at the UCB. I've heard enough horror stories about him from his former students to be guarded when he's performing. I actually liked the Kanye East thing because it was so over the top. However I didn't really get the Zuckerburg thing. It was just kind of random. Aww, man. I actually like Besser for the most part, but it's disappointing when I hear something like this.  I was not impressed with Zuckerburg. Kanye East was ok, and I actually liked that british character he played especially during would you rather. Or shall I say "Would You Prefer!" Pardo-ism of the day, "I got a real nice charge out of it"

The Modern Leper posted:Stumbled into Never Not Funny just as they posted a "full" episode with Jon Hamm. Holy poo poo, this epic. Anyone have the Primo - is it guest-dependent, or is the 90 minute version always this strong? It's well worth getting the primo IMO. It's guest oriented, but they almost never get too "interviewy". The Jon Hamm episode was pretty much all conversation and improv which made for wild laughter from my dumb rear end in my cubicle. That being said, NNF sometimes has its clunkers like anyone else *cough*Greg Fitzsimmons*cough*, but there's always a good amount of funny in even those ones. Edit: In other news, I cut loose The Joe Rogan Experience. It needs better guests because unlike NNF, Joe and his "Brahs" really can't hold their own. Maybe Joe could with a guest, Adam Carolla style, but he won't change the format. At least he's doing what he wants. V V

He's used some of his material on his and other podcasts, so some of it may be familiar. However for the most part it would be new material you may not have heard before.

So I finally listened to episode one of The Podcast Eating Contest. It's just as silly as the title implies. They pretty much have a loose theme or subject they stick to. It's very much all improve. Fans of improve comedy will like it. There are clunkers though that they still run with that can get mildly annoying, but they drop it fairly quickly. Some people will get this, but I'd say these guys are like a bunch of slightly funnier and quicker Matt Belknaps from NNF. Matt Belknap as of late, not early "Defensive Man" Matt.

For a halfway decent comedian, Eddie Pepitone just doesn't "get it" half the time. He seems to build brick walls when people improv with him. I like the podcast he's on, but he is a clunker machine.

I've had similar tragedy effect my life like Dane did. He still has a bit of an ego, but he certainly has changed his views a bit after his parents died. It was weird to relate, but it definitely changed the way I look at him too, though I may still not be a fan. Mencia still is and always will be a oval office, though.

Eh, I gave up on Comedy and Everything Else a long while back. Todd leaving the show is actually what made me curious. I feel a lot of the episodes he is in is worth listening to, but it just got a little boring. I'm not huge into political discussion and when I do listen to SOME political talk, I'm not interested in hearing it from Jimmy Dore.

The Modern Leper posted:Picked up the primo NNF. Does anyone who knows the history know the guest that Pardo had on who was heinous? I'm listening to the episode with Greg Berendht, and he mentioned a guest (the only guest?) where audiences actually asked him not to bring him (has to be a "him") back. I believe it was Greg Fitzsimmons. It was a pretty cringe worthy episode. Some people here liked it. I'm not a fan. What up, primo buddy

Actually, normally I'm not a fan of the two of them, but they were talking about topics of interest for me. There happens to be a movie related to this interesting topic. So they talk about it... There have been worse episodes of DLM.

Ok, I'll never say this to a comedian but I feel comfortable saying it here. Jon Daly pretty much isn't too funny without Nick Kroll, IMO. Never liked any of his characters, mostly cause they were boring. His Bill Cosby Bukowski was hilarious. Then he followed it up with a Boris Karloff impression of that ghoul had me floored. I'm back on board.

Ah, ok, that's a better description of it and I might just check it out. I guess The Podcast Eating Contest is UYD-esque and I love the hell out of that (SOMEONE GET THEM TO STOP GURGLE BURPING INTO THE MIC!). I may be wrong but I thought Jesse Thorn was a co-host on YLNT. He's from the podcast Jordan Jesse Go! and that slowly became more and more not my thing mostly because it just dragged.

King Lou posted:I really liked the Halloween episode. It was super childish. Especially all the cockenstein jokes. I also enjoyed Jerry Minor constantly shouting down the ear wolf app. Over all it may have been too long and that freestyle rap part could have been eliminated but whatever. This is how I feel about the episode. However, I did enjoy the Rap part. I guess I just found it fun. And Ghoul rules are different than ghost rules, apparently. I learned a lot about how the paranormal works. CDR can be educational.

Just saw some of the dude's video. I chuckled at the burning question mark but nothing really else. Turned it off when he did the thing about the Japanese not showing a lot of emotion. In 2010, yeah, this guy is a bit hackey. Is his entire act racial humor? I guess some people are more into it, but I kind of get bored of it if it goes on too long.

I honestly thought seasons 6 and 7 were fantastic. I do miss Andrew and to say it's a better format now is wrong. It is just funny in a different way. I thought Andrew on mic was fine, but his humor didn't mix with mine for the most part. It doesn't mean that his stories weren't interesting though.

I know I sound like a broken record when I say this, but it's not JUST the burps in general. I've listened to Stern a lot back in the day and burps don't bother me. They're drinking beer and they get those foamy DEEP burps. That's what makes me gag. Seriously, I've never gone from hysterical laughter to suppressing my gag reflex in my life, until now.
