No one is watching that show but I've gotta admit "Spank Bank" is a great name for it.

What are you guys thoughts on the live shows? I don't really like the forced vibe where they are going for the laugh every 5 seconds because it's never been that kind of show for me.

I do like that they have a recurring cast of fans who come every time they're in town. Jimmy and Matt seem to know some of them and are able to interact with them in funny/insulting ways.

His "I refuse to accept that Trading Places doesn't hold up" shtick is really loving stupid. I haven't been this annoyed with Matt since season 1.

I agree! "The sandlot sucks but Trading Places is awesome." So completely oblivious. What the gently caress man?

Jimmy: "Movie pass! $10 a month and you can see a movie every day!"
Paul F Tompkins: "Hmm. I won't be doing that."

My thoughts exactly PFT.


Also I thought of a new drinking game for the show. Every time Elliot gets butthurt about the Vanilla Ice thing shoot yourself in the head! Why won't they stop bringing it up!?!?

I think maybe the bloom is off the rose for you guys and you should find another show

I like 90% of the show, I guess it's just the 10% I don't enjoy has become really grating. I used to like that they could find funny in Elliot's interruptions. Now it just seems to completely halt whatever fun/rhythm they're on. He's been completely not funny for like 8 years now.

I'm usually an audio listener but I just saw the new video intro and it made me laugh. Good job Elliot!

I met Jimmy and Matt when they came to Houston a few months ago. I actually made Jimmy laugh, that was really cool after being a listener for like a decade.

This week's episode with Cheryl Hines is fantastic, and in a very different way than an other good episode. If you haven't heard it yet, go into it know that Jimmy has no idea about Cheryl's personal life or views until the very end of the episode. Jimmy doesn't know when he makes a joke about JFK's head getting blown off that Cheryl is married to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. (JFK's nephew). He also goes off about anti-vaxxers and RFK Jr. is one of the most prominent anti-vaxxers in the world. Cheryl sat in silence. To further complicate things Hines just signed on with Misfit Toys to produce and and release her podcast, the podcast network that Jimmy Pardo and Matt Belknap run.

:yikeseroo: I just checked up on this thread to see if I should start listening again and woow! How's the fallout from that? I think I would cringe so hard I would implode into a black hole if I listen to that episode.

Also 3 eps a week? I thought they ran out of stuff to talk about with 2 per week! I'll still go see Jimmy any time he's in town but I think the show is done for me.
