I really enjoyed the Jarvis Cocker interview. Now I'm wondering if Mike Watt performing in a mask is for artistic or covid reasons. Weembles fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Jul 27, 2022 |

So due to living in Japan I listened to it in weirder times than most people. I was working from home so I could listen to it from about 10am my time (when it started) to about 5pm when I had to do some family poo poo, and then for an hour or two later in the night before bed (where Kevin Corrigan’s drunk call was a highlight). It honestly just felt like a bunch of ok episodes combined. There were some big guests but nothing really you might not hear on a normal episode. I could totally see Conan calling in just because they probably mutually know people in podcasting and show business (Wurster being one of them) and also I could see Jarvis Cocker calling in on a normal episode. The karaoke bit was where I was like “Ok. Time to take a break from this.” It was an ambitious concept but it definitely did not have the spontaneity of something like the Four Loko Christmas episode from when it was on the radio. Goddamn I’m not sure something like that is possible any more.

The lack of Ted Leo and Aimee Man for years has been noticeable but has there been actually any reason to assume they aren't on good terms with Tom other than really vague gossip?

Conan absolutely losing his poo poo over the Gorch was equal parts surprising and wonderful
|
# ? Aug 2, 2022 08:26 |

Yeah that was a highlight for sure. Wurster has been on Conan before both in a musical capacity and doing sketches so it’s not super surprising that Conan checked out some of his stuff

Tom extolling Lana De Ray always sucks the energy out of the room. Thankfully it was at the end of the show this time.

Toms version of Office Hours was better than Tim's version of the Best Show, imho.

Weembles posted:Toms version of Office Hours was better than Tim's version of the Best Show, imho. I believe you. I haven’t seen Tom’s Office Hours but the Tim Best Show was not great, the GG Allin manager call not withstanding, of course.

Holy poo poo I tuned into Tim's Best Show and some caller asked him "what age did you get into the Beatles" and I almost threw my shoe at my speaker. Tim's look and reaction was completely appropriate something like "wtf? yea that's what people want to hear about." If people are going to get past Mike with poo poo like that I'll tune in next week. edit: look, if you just want to talk to your hero you still gotta have a topic. Don't improv your topic on the fly! If that was a pre-thought-out question then that caller should be humanely euthanized.

I thought Tim's Best Show was really good. Office hours has grown on me but the drops and absolute chaos of it still drive me nuts. I'd religiously listen to a more low key Tim podcast. Also a fan of both his guests so that was cool. Pat trying to do the bad guy bit made me embarrassed for him and then trying to salvage it at the end and whiffing that too was a lol.

I'd give anything to hear the story of how Tom became friends with Kevin Corrigan. Every conversation those two have on air sounds like two strangers in a restaurant trying to make small talk while their mutual friend is in the bathroom.

Gotta say, though, Kevin Corrigan’s story about Michael Shannon playing Scott Joplin at the rehearsal just makes him sound like an annoying drama kid to me. Gotta make sure everyone knows you’re a good musician, huh Michael? Also LOL at Kevin not remembering the name of the character he plays in the movie he’s promoting
