Like everyone else, I'm sad and overwhelmed by this. I created this account because I wanted to thank Scott for this episode specifically, for all the Comedy Bang Bang laughs in general, and for introducing so many of us to the wonderful world of Harris.
The intro to this episode is heartbreaking, as is Kulap's intro for Who Charted. The intros are about as far as I can go right now. It’s a form of denial: if I don’t listen to these episodes, then all is well in this insular little podcast dimension.
I’m in awe of Harris’ ability to have deeply affected such a massive amount of people, probably most of whom had never even met him. I wonder if he had any idea that so many random podcast listeners cared so much about him. I truly hope that he did.
And I hope that Scott and the Earwolf family realize how beloved they and their comedy are to so many. Bringing joy into people's lives is no small feat.
