barkingclam posted:I liked this ep, but was anyone else thrown by Besser's reaction to the Hitler teapot story? Here it sounds like he's hearing it for the first time. I wonder if they recorded this a couple of weeks ago and pushed it back for some reason. It seemed that way, particularly with Oscar Pistorius being brought up twice.

SpacePig posted:I have a dream that one day, there will be an I4H episode with Poehler, Roberts and Walsh. I would absolutely love to see how that episode goes. If you haven't seen it, the ASSSSSCAT DVD has the four main UCB members, along with Horatio, Sean Conroy, Chad Carter, and Andy Daly in what I feel was the best improv moment ever. But watching the original 4 play off each other is pretty spectacular and I do hope for that I4H episode.

escape artist posted:Is "Analyze Phish" any good? I have never listened to Phish, so I have no feelings one way or the other on the band, but I love the show. It's a lot more intimate of a show since you're basically listening to two friends chat. Adam Scott shows up in episode 3 and episode 4 is amazing.

I think it's just one of Besser's go-to voices. I distinctly remember him using It on UCB, Crossballs, and I want to say the ASSSSCAT DVD.

I really liked it, since it was kind of back towards the original premise, only without Scott. Although the dynamic felt different to me. Wittels and Scott seems like two buddies talking, with one of them razzing the other. Harris and Tom was more like...trying to explain your obsession with an older coworker.

I had a moment during that Karini (sp?) where I was like "oh no... I dig this..." Then Harris skipped ahead and the weird piano started losing me and that last skip to a happy tune put me back in dislike. I am curious what would happen if they just did one full song, so it could actually progress rather than just feel disconnected.

I wish I remember which minisode had Paul talk about it. He said they're working on it.

anotherone posted: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 don't THINK our favorite water skiing Hot Dog has killed anyone. I wonder if Andi Callihan will ever come back. It's probably his weakest character but he was also on the first episode with Gilly so it has a soft spot in my heart.

I wouldn't mind a bit of a reboot on his characters. You can tell when he goes on CBB now, he and Scott struggle to remember ALL the canon and will start going down a path, remember they did it, and then stop.

EL BROMANCE posted:Here's the strangest minor complaint you'll hear all day: Earwolf needs to swap out the photo of Jason Mantzoukas they use as it really doesn't resemble the guy anymore, and for some reason beyond me reminds me of the photo of Mohamed Atta that the news kept using after 9/11, despite the fact the two don't resemble each other in the slightest. It's the same character he played on CBB, episode "Introducing Rocky". Also, I kinda dig Jason's picture. I don't think it's looked like him since he even started appearing on Earwolf programs. I makes me think of that young picture of Stalin.

Maerlyn posted:On Scott's Reddit IamA, someone suggested PFT have a podcast pilot project of his own which Scott said was a good idea, so I'm fervently hoping that happens this year/next year. It would actually be really cool to get different seasons of the Podcast Pilot Project, where you could bring in PFT for one, Adomian, Etc. To do characters for like 8 episodes, so they can fit it in their schedules.

I didn't get a sense of bad blood from the episode at least. They talked about having the conference call with Earwolf and coming to the decision to move on, and them helping with the transition. I feel like it wouldn't have been as candid or open if there was hard feelings.

Fiendly posted:I Was There Too is definitely one of my favorite podcasts, maybe even my favorite Gourley podcast, which is saying a lot. I've always been surprised that it never gets mentioned when the topic of hilarious ad reads comes up, because it's the one show where I never skip the ads and the recent Mack Weldon ads are on another level. I was going to make a crack when the show was first starting like "Wonder how long it'll be before this podcast starts going months between episodes..." and unfortunately that time is drawing near, but it maintained consistent updates much longer than I'd expected. His glee of being allowed to revel in swears and his throwing out just the first word combinations that come to mind is such a delight.
