Harmontown really got me and my friends into the idea of playing Dungeons and Dragons until we realized that all we really wanted was to do improv while drunk.

Ok, I've only listened through to the first D&D session so far, but it looks like they really hit the jackpot with Spencer.
Spencer's a genuine goldmine and looks exactly the way you are envisioning in your head.

I like Erin, but I genuinely didn't know if she was doing "clueless girl who has no idea how to play Dungeons and Dragons, har har" shtick, or if that's how she really is until they addressed it directly in this episode.

Jesus Christ, the newest episode is an emotional roller coaster of D&D goodness.

I wish this episode was what they were basing the animated series on.

Lisette's apology amounting to "I'm sorry if my words offended you" kind of got under my skin and I was secretly hoping for another audience takedown.

Randomly listening to older episodes out of sequence, Levi shows up in an early episode (in the 10-20 range?) and doesn't sound like a cartoon character wearing a velvet smoking jacket. A year or two in L.A. will gently caress you right up, yo.

That psychotic Prairie Home Companion parody he wrote kind of shows that Adam Goldberg is pretty funny on the page, he just doesn't have any sort of talent when it comes to timing, delivery, inflection, that sort of stuff.

Also: psychotic.

Ah, to relive a shirtless Dan Harmon with a camera strapped to his forehead.

I've been wondering ever since that night whether or not it would make the movie.

Bridgetown Comedy Festival in Portland just announced live Harmontown. The exact date/venue isn't scheduled yet, but it runs May 8th through May 11th. Kumail's also doing the festival (including a Meltdown show) so hopefully he wanders in.

The Austin D&D was surprisingly good. They actually seemed to get somewhere and the audience member wasn't just trying to do something stupid like cut off a penis.
I seriously can't wait for Jeff to come back only to find Quark dickless, though.

Man those brothers seemed like real assholes, at least one of them
I was sitting right behind them. One of them was wearing one of those types of suits where it has an intentional "Oh, this has been crumpled up in the corner of the room for the last week" look. They seemed weird, but I was coming off an acid trip, so everything seemed weird at the time.

Malcolm, however. That kid's going places. Probably to bed.

Spencer's been stoned since day one, the only difference is the level of confidence from having a loving audience.

That's surprising because in his last appearance he came off as really jealous and bitter when he kept ranting about more popular comedians saying stupid things on Twitter and wasn't funny at all.
That's been his act for the last 30 years and it's magnificent.

I randomly loaded up #100 on a whim over the weekend and was delighted as a dude comes onstage and he explains he was a storyboard artist on the upcoming show BoJack Horseman, tries to explain the premise of BoJack Horseman and then tries his best to insist that the show with such an insane premise is actually good.

I checked out Dino and Andy's podcast and kinda dig the scumbag antagonist dynamic where you hate them, they hate themselves and they hate each other. It's very Walking the Room if you listened to that show.

I also found out via the podcast that The Tick series for Amazon got picked up. :dance:

Christ, the idea of doing whipits at a live show in silence except for the laughter of an audience sounds loving horrifying.

EDIT: They work best with a musical backing, I find. Doing them in silence just amplifies the silence. Doing them in a room of people laughing would probably give me a straight-up panic attack.

Also their current D&D game is so hosed up they should just give it up and start a new one.
Is getting Patchens' Jewel back even the whole story arc or have they hosed up that bad because I swear that was the first task they were given and they still haven't managed to do it. I just turn off the last 30 minutes at this point and switch over to Dragon Friends for DND goofs.
