I cant believe Wally Wackiman. Its just frustrating to hear that guy who had a funny character going but then weirdly folded and just became this upset person who still insists he's okay and a fun character. Even more infuriating is you have effin Tom Scharpling feeding him advice and jokes in the form of barbs and stories and he doesnt take any of it. Guh.

I think the best part was Vance asking him why he does nothing but talk about puppets. I do admit it did have points where I expected Wally to completely feltdown.

I haven't heard this week's episode, but every time Wally is on it kills me. He seems so close to understanding what he's doing wrong and loosening up, but then he just has to go back and respond to one joke Tom makes at his expense and it starts all over again. I loved him when he first came around at the beginning of the protege search and when he was in-studio with H-man, but lately he seems intent on eliminating any goodwill anyone had for him. On a non-puppet topic, I thought it was really great last week when Tom addressed the other board. I wouldn't have thought any good could come from acknowledging people like that and admitting being bothered by it, but he found a really graceful way to do it. Also, I love when he talks to children, and you could tell he was really touched when that kid named his D&D characters after Dogmo. Those moments really reflect for me how TBS is so much more than a weekly comedy show.

Wally calling in was awesome. "Woolly Allen." Greggulator is insane. I mean, he used to wear an orange jumpsuit in high school! I hope him and Wally meet in studio sometime. Edit: Losing the voice. LOSING THE VOICE. COUNTIN THE BILLIES fucked around with this message at 23:37 on Jan 12, 2012 |

The best part is when Z-man calls in as himself. As he gets more flustered he starts sounding more like the puppet.

Just STARTED listening to this week's show and Tom is absolutely on fire. He must have something good going on because he is killing it. Edit: Haha he had someone intro a song on a CD he said he liked and he played Tubthumping instead. I just died. SansWetware fucked around with this message at 05:24 on Feb 2, 2012 |

The last 5-10 minutes of Tom doing impressions was incredible. The one caller requesting a PFT impression and being hung up on without Tom saying a word means all the horrible rumors are true though

On the last show, Tom mentioned preparing the premium for this year's marathon. Is last year's premium already on the way? I know the 2010 one took 1,5 years, but since I haven't heard any mention of the 2011 premium since that marathon, I feel like it should have been here by now.

I think he mentioned it a few weeks ago, and he was wrapping it up. All the songs are done.

Sounds like Hatch is hosting this week, I vaguely remember it being entertaining the last time he did it. (I'm not usually a fan of "Depravity's Rainbow" )

Yep I pledged my 75. Roy is on now. Ted is on next. We already got Vance. Tom raises an unreal amount of money during this. Hundreds of thousands. Edit: He is real conscious of this camera! SansWetware fucked around with this message at 04:10 on Feb 22, 2012 |

Groucho Marxist posted:Holy crap I had no idea that Terre T was Jillian Barberie Yeah, I don't think he's ever mentioned it on the show, and I can't remember how I finally figured it out. It also explains why he promotes Cherry Blossom Clinic so much. Haven't had a chance to listen to the marathon yet, but I sent my $80 pledge in last night

So this "Marc and Tom Show" is great. http://www.wtfpod.com Lots of just bouncing stuff back and forth - lots of music talk and career talk. They work together well. As if it wasn't obvious they are both pretty loving smart.
