If you liked the "We figured it out" segments from Gelmania, then you'll like Hollywood Handbook.

This is the connection I've been trying to make through every Hollywood Handbook I've listened to so far. The tone is almost exactly the same.

There's supposed to be a new Gelmania soon and I can't wait :shobon:

This is an awful idea financially for them. Poor Matt.

I don't see how. They have an existing fanbase that has proven it's willing to give them money for the show--they always provide these ridiculous bonus packages every season because people actually buy them. There will of course be people dropping off now that they don't have to pay, but I think that number will be smaller than you expect. Or to put it differently, I think the amount of people that still want to pay will be higher than you expect (I just signed up for the next two seasons :clint:).

To say nothing of the benefits of expanding their audience, which is of course where the real opportunity for growth is (both subscriptions and advertising). I think it's a very good move on their part.

I don't remember the episode that well, was the Irish poet character a psychopath? I feel like maybe he was suicidally depressed but not actively a mass-murderer, is that right? What about the German traveller? Pretty sure he was coming to the US to commit suicide on the Hollywood sign, but I don't think he had killed anyone.

I'm just trying to remember in my head if Andy Daly has any characters who aren't serial killers.

If Nine Sweaters is canon, the Irish poet made an elderly woman eat her own cat in a soup, and beat nearly to death the father of a little girl that rode her tricycle on his driveway too many times. The German traveler did indeed only aspire to set himself on fire while tied to the Hollywood sign, but he was going to tie himself to an annoying dog that lived near Paul F. Tompkins I think. I haven't listened to these in a long rear end time.

The Black List Table Reads just debuted with Paul Scheer, Jason Mantzoukas, Lauren Lapkus, Matt Walsh, and others reading some apparently infamous script called "BALLS OUT". It's pretty funny so far.
