The 3 of them are a great team, Leslie Schecter is one of my favorite characters.

when Scott brought up Pinocchio I was sure they were going to callback the Chocolate bit. Oh well, still a funny ep and I hope eventually Scott brings in the core members of Superego. The PFT/Superego episode is amazing.

Edit: Hmm, I may have a reason to actually watch the (first part of the) Comedy Awards:

I directed this! RT @HuffPostComedy: 'Between Two Ferns' coming to Comedy Central with guests Tina Fey and Jon Stewart http://huff.to/I5lqpw

It's a 30 minute episode of Between Two Ferns right before the awards show. Hopefully it's just as awkward as the FoD series.

Dont remember the episode but it was Aimee Mann and (I think) Tim Heidecker singing "Todd Barry is an idiot". And it was a song used for a break I'm pretty sure.

I liked that they squeezed in some PFT at the top of the show even though it was disappointing that he couldn't make it for the show-proper.

I'm kind of hoping PFT was there for a super-early recording of this coming week's CBB, kind of like Andy Richter did for the last end of year special.

Yeah when he's not doing a character or, even better, deadpanning one of his stories he's a pretty subpar guest.

How does he come up with his nicknames anyway? The only one I know the origin of is "Hot Saucerman", and that's only because I happened upon it listening to old Harris episodes.

Most of his nicknames are from passing comments he makes, either on CBB or other podcasts (i.e., "What's up, hot dog?" from NNF).

For example, this nickname:

Nice, looks like Mr. Saucerman got a NY Times article written about CBB. God I hope this show does well.

The article slips a small bit of info about an upcoming Earwolf podcast, too:

New York Times posted:

In a forthcoming series called “Nerd Poker,” for instance, comedians are recorded while playing Dungeons & Dragons

I'm guessing Posehn and Oswalt are going to be appearing on that podcast frequently. Between this and the "Mr. Blow" podcast Odenkirk talked about, I think Earwolf is about to have some additional solid podcasts to offer.

Has anyone named the What am I Thinking song, by the way? It's so moody and pretty and I would listen to an entire album like that.

It's at the very end of one of the CBBs. I think it's the "Best Of" with Adomian PFT and Reggie, if you haven't heard the bit I don't want to ruin it but Scott's egging on really makes it wonderfully absurd.

Edit: hmm yeah I'm having a hard time finding it too. It's an episode with PFT and Adomian in it for sure.


Vv Adomian does it there too. The one I'm thinking of is where Huell visits the Large Hadron Collider. vV

Yeah I agree about Mulaney; his facial expressions actually make the characters better.

Even if the show doesn't succeed (and I really hope it will), after seeing that sketch I hope they bring those characters to (hopefully) another season of CBB TV.

Oh, Lauren Lapkus. Please don't do an annoying nasally girl character, please don't do an annoying nasally girl character, pleeeeeease don't do an annoying nasally girl character...

Not going to lie, I had completely forgotten to record Maron until I listened to the bonus episode.

I oddly enjoyed this CBB episode, odd because I recently binged on WTF and was consequently sick of listening to Marc. I guess the episode worked, because I remembered to record it and I'm glad I did.

Pretty funny show.

Mordecai really summed it up, but I feel like an average SNL episode (at any point in time) is a B+ in comedy.

It's really genius comedians/writers paying their dues on-screen; basically a handful of iconic and amazing sketches, balanced out by pretty-good comedy.
