comedy podcast thread

You might want to give it a shot. I don't think you need to know a ton about sports (though it helps) but that may not be true. Their chemistry is obviously amazing and they are just so damn quick. Check out one of the patton episodes. Most of their guests don't know anything about sports anyway.

wife and i just laughed at tom and pft laughing at themselves about the juggalos harder than ive laughed at anything in literally weeks.

every single "hellicopter rides" was threatening to kill me

Which podcast is this? What espisode?

[badhat]

its linked as a DL somewhere on the page you quoted from, or maybe the previous page.

its from best show.

PFT comes in about 50 minutes in any they start talking about the Gathering maybe 10 minutes after that.

[sharkhax]

I'll look for it. Who is PFT?

[sharkhax]

oh i see it. no mediafire at work, probably for the better than I don't listen to it here anyway, i'd make a scene

Well too bad because you can also stream it:

How Did This Get Made has been a huge disappointment, it's such a good concept and group of people, but it's boring as hell with almost embarrassing production value at times

[badhat]

ok the DLM with garlin, foley and mintzplasse is awesome.

still one of my favorite things

Yeah, that was the best one yet. The comedy pairing of Loud Garrulous Fat Man + Cynical Canadian + Young Kid Who is More Successful Than, yet Deferential To the Others was a match made in heaven. + Stoner Host too, I guess.

[sambadeamigo]

i loved that dlm. i was cracking up with doug and jeff going back and forth about whether jeff would talk over the outro music to get the last word.

hot dog is easily one of my favorite cdr characters now

this week was so fucking funny. god, when they asked him what would happen if it turned out his wife was repeatedly holding his son ransom..

"well, then i guess i would have to go crazy"

[shank]

I'll second nefarious's endorsement of Sklarbro Country. While it's sports-centric, they focus on the weird, stupid, crazy shit going on, whether it's "big national names" or just smaller stories like little league coaches dueling or whatever. They play off of each other amazingly (guess it helps they're twins) and their guests are almost exclusively well-respected comedians. Chris Cox does some great impressions for them in their last "interview" segment too (Sam Elliott, Jerry Jones, Tiger Woods).

[hiddenicon]

been meaning to listen to the fillion nerdist, but nerdier interests keep getting in the way.

i think CDR is just too fucking inconsistent for me to listen regularly anymore. that paul giamatti bit last week turned me off almost immediately.

[badhat]

i felt sota the opposite. the giamatti thing absolutely kills me in small doeses, but they do have habit of beating shit to death.

i mena, its the nature of fre form improv, but i cant help but feel they could structure it a little more and keep the bits shorter.

i loved the first couple of episodes but i have to admit the last couple, ehh

structure and brevity would do a lot for me, yeah. most of my favorite bits (bob ducca, mike detective, ibrain) are at least partly pre-written, and a lot of my favorite improv on the show doesn't involve a character (episode with tig and nealon in particular). i'm ok with nick kroll doing his characters for a whole episode, though it depends on the straight men he has to work with.

You'll never guess who I met. Haystack. I just met Haystack!

[Kevin McCallister]

Last night I was laughing about the CDR Halloween episode and when they were talking about ghost law/court, one of the ghouls saying that "The only Ghost Rule is that ghosts rule."

[Fullscreen]

anybody listen to hollywood babble on?

adam carolla is guest hosting with ralph garmen later in the month and it's going to be hilarious.

cyberthug owns that ep so hard

[Mechanical bird]

those kevin smith podcasts...oof. i just couldn't listen to him say "whatnot" and make everything a joke about sucking cock anymore. he really stunk it up on doug loves movies as well. i'm beginning to think he's not all that talented.

[Mechanical bird]

and i guess this was further upthread, but Aukerman consistently cracks me up. i esp. love his Weirder Scott songs in the earlier CDRs. he has a great bad sense of humor.

[nefarious]

!!

It took you this long?

[Mechanical bird]

maybe i have to get 100 posts before i can post facetiously

[r4l9]

I'm sure the internet has a place I can download the wtf's, where is it

[Jay Owen]

Someone needs to remix
