Fell off the show for awhile but getting back into it after a friend starting listening. Can someone fill me in on why Tom isn't doing any shows rn? Looks like he did a few post covid?

think he's trying to write his book on top of whatever other work he's trying to do, plus he just seemed burned out from everything happening in the world

Yeah I think it's a combination of that and not wanting to deal with Mike... Seems like that put it over the top, which is understandable

Awesome.
I like Double Threat but it makes me miss the natural fluidity of The Best Show.

Singing?

All this is speculation, obviously:

We'll find out soon enough, but I'm guessing "podcasting" probably means something not called The Best Show at this point. I'd like to see So Far come back, but I don't know if that comes back without the Best Show.

Early in the pandemic, I think it was the right move to continue The Best Show in any format he could do it. At this point, with him full-time in Los Angeles and the other three - not to mention the studio - in New Jersey, it's not at all clear how it would happen *now*.

He may not know himself. When circumstances allow it, could you have a permanent situation with the three producers together in NJ with the phone board and Tom remoting in every week? Maybe. Things may change to the point where that sort of thing is permanent and audiences consider it satisfactory and normal.

Tom has said several times that The Best Show involves at least a) him talking to callers and b) a way for him and Jon to do comedy together.

AAAAAARGGGGHHHHH!

And I'll say that I enjoy or at least tolerate 90% of what Tom plays, but he's put this on not once but twice in like a 3-week period and I can't take it https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2tzfbt

Oh bummer. I guess if they're both happy and ok, then fine. But ugh.

julia vickerman always focuses on this tumblr post, which while bad, can definitely be read as a (bad, unfunny) joke

which is a bit different than being fired from your own show during production for sexually harassing the crew

yikes
