Conduit for Sale! posted:Seriously. I don't understand why Scott Aukerman can have these people on his show all the time. He should be calling the police immediately when they show up. Personally, I'd be afraid for my life if I were around one of these hooligans, but Aukerman seems to not have a care in the world. Makes me wonder if he's a little more involved in their activities than he says... He always tries to but then they bring out the girls...

Lugaloco posted:Man, this 4/20 episode of I4H is a beautiful mess. Seriously I was kinda cringing when I read it because I'm so used to 'lol we're so hiiiiigh' jokes being the laziest thing ever but instead it was just a bunch of legit hilarious people getting high and doing improv and that's kinda the best thing. "DOES A GOAT LOOK MORE LIKE A HORSE OR A HUMAN?!"

I seriously love how after they start getting high all the bits are entirely based off misunderstandings and random tangents rather than the suggestions. "I have been sober for three days, my name is Ishitori" "Cut to three days later at the strip club..."

Mr. Squishy posted:Eric the erstwhile intern is fat now. He's a large man. And Matt Besser's attempt to help was to sick the trumpet guy on him, record this for presumably hours and hours, then play 2 minutes of it before moving onto yelling at people who want to know where their grandfather's corpse is. What? I'm a bit behind on improv 4 humans. I know trumpet guy but nothing else about this post makes sense to me.

Find a scene where they didn't make an incredibly bawdy sexual joke or use an objectionable word." Also Playing House...like they wouldn't have the fuckin 'well I did order the yellowtail...' joke sure but they're not exactly clean in it! It's so weird to cut out so much because this poo poo does totally fit the tone of the show.

Yea Case Closed can be interesting or funny when he's genuinely arguing something with someone who's not a lunatic but that was was just kinda him half-heartedly defending a joke and constantly shifting it around so he didn't have to go 'ok yea it was kinda dumb'.

Yea pretty much, I love I4H, Besser is a saint of comedy, but when he gets into these arguments I almost always wind up mumbling 'are you loving kidding' or something as I listen. Like I keep waiting for this to reveal itself as a bit but nope. Still I agree there is this weird almost evil humor factor in the fact that he brings these loving comics on and sometimes makes them just wait a half hour while he and some twitter shitbag have a fight about literally nothing. Like, just the concept of that will always make me laugh.

Pretty much, as said Horatio is kinda a perv himself but he gets a pass because he's a fairly charming guy, you can be a big druggy pervert all you want if you have just some basic social skills and can act like a normal human being. Kattan is not that, at all.

Mordecai Sanchez posted:I won't argue against that. But the Canon reminds me of "Embrace Debate" programming you see on ESPN. Nothing but two people yelling for 10 minutes about a made-up topic like, "Who is the most 'Elite' quarterback in the NFL?" Pretty much, like, I could get into a thing where they talk about the political and social messages of movies and their impacts on the culture around them and all that but they're super not doing that. Like said it's just the dude being all 'well here's what I think' and the girl being all 'here's what I think' and then the end. It's like, cool you just said two things I guess.

ImPureAwesome posted:Really? Maybe I'm just used to cbb where the bit doesn't end hell or high water and they have forever to get weird I'd say CBB is a fairly unique form though, there's a good bit of other elements like anti-comedy and poo poo mixed in. Also the new I4H was great. She-Hulk Hogan is maybe my favorite character they've had in a bit.

June, like many comics, probably legitimately did have a thought like 'no a man should go chase down a dude who talked poo poo to his wife' or whatever that bit was about, then thought 'that's dumb, but it'd be funny for my comedy show if I made it sound like I legitimately wanted my husband, a man famous for playing total spazlords in near everything he's in, to fight to the death for my honor'.

JethroMcB posted:There better be another I4H 4/20 special this year. "We cut to...SPAGO" popped into my head out of nowhere last night and I had to give it a listen. Gabrus' coupon-obsessed prostitute at the end just slays me. "I'll let you walk on my back with golf cleats...you can...kick me in the tits and face..." Yea I never thought listening to dudes getting high would be that funny when not high myself, but they crushed it. Just enough stoner 'what the gently caress did he just say, whatever roll with it' mixed in to make it insane.

Zsinjeh posted:Sweet another music I4H ep. Before the first song: "this will probably be the saddest song you'll ever have to improv from" Honestly despite me rolling my eyes at like 90% of the 'serious' things coming from Besser's mouth I do enjoy the occasional 'serious' tangent on the show just because sometimes the guests have some legitimate interesting stuff to share. Haven't listened to today's but looking at the guests I'm kinda interested in them talking about a song for a little bit between poop jokes.

BobTheCow posted:Has anybody else tried listening to Question of the Day? It's... awful. The first episode is spent questioning why anybody would choose to work a 9-5 salaried job. These guys are so far removed from the reality of everyday life for the average person and have no clue. Haha what? That's the craziest thing I can imagine for a podcast. Was it like, at least an attempt at a genuine talk about the problems that 9-5 jobs can cause like hurting your social life often including family and other very important aspects, or a sedentary lifestyle being harmful or whatever, or was it literally just 'actual jobs whaaaaaaaa why would you do that'? e: Oh, it's Freakanomics and quote:James Altucher is an American hedge fund manager, entrepreneur, bestselling author, and podcaster.[1] He has founded or cofounded over 20 companies, including Reset Inc. and StockPickr and claims to have failed at 17 of them.[2][3][4] He has published 11 books, and is a frequent contributor to publications including The Financial Times, TheStreet.com, TechCrunch, Seeking Alpha, Thought Catalog, and The Huffington Post.[5][6][7] USA Today named his book "Choose Yourself" among the 12 Best Business Books of All Time.[8] That explains it. sexpig by night fucked around with this message at 06:10 on Sep 4, 2015 |
