    Episode 342 - Caught Between the Hoist and the Hold

    If you play Ray Lewis' "motivational" speech backwards it's actually his confession for killing Richard Lollar.

    Episode 172 - Julie Klausner, Our Close Friend Once Again

    'Vampire Bats of Grindr'- the new film from Nicolas Winding Refn, Summer 2017

    Episode 468 - The Dream Method

    Peter Finn makes me literally nauseous when he starts singing. I am never not amazed at Mike Hanford's unparalleled ability to simultaneously entertain and infuriate with his characters.

    Paywall Special Announcement

    Same! I did NOT like CBB first time I heard it, I just did not get it. Though in all fairness, my first 5 or so listens was in my friends car and he would just start an episode where he left off, so it would be like no context and all of a sudden it's Pamela from Big Bear. It wasn't until I watched the TV show that i understood the whole thing and what was happening and what the "point" was. I thought it was just idiots making pussy jokes at each other (which it IS, but like I'm in on it now so it's cool?) HDTGM was my "gateway" show into Earwolf and got into a lot of the Wolfpop shows before they combined everything which then led me back to other Earwolf stuff (CBB, Spont.)

    Paywall Special Announcement

    As a current subscriber, I can say that there are certain show eps that don't get put on here, primarily shows done on tours (Comedy Bang Bang) or some special eps that were done at conventions, and mini-series and specials done by Earwolf people apart from their regular shows (Lauren Lapkus' Wild Horses stuff, for example). For HDTGM, there aren't any that I can think of that haven't also been on Earwolf thus far, but I could be mistaken. Edit: this is not counting the stuff that Paul talks about in this podcast, this is my experience up to this point

    Paywall Special Announcement

    Really weirded out by the number of commenters hoping for failure for Earwolf. I get the disappointment in having to pay for something that previously was free, but the idea that you should get things your way or they should fail is very sad and gross. Also, listening to ads is a meaningless way to "support" a podcast if you aren't buying the product. If you're balking at $3 a month, how many $700 mattresses can you buy in a year? How many $25 pairs of underwear? Any $60/week Blue Apron subscribers out there? Advertisers don't give a shit about your whining on forums, they care about revenue. How many podcasts are Casper/Warby Parker/et al sponsoring, hundreds? A thousand? How much do you honestly think they are paying for indie web comedians to read some copy?

    Episode 153 - Escape from L.A.: LIVE!

    Speaking of movies that proved instrumental in adolescent sexual awakenings: Beastmaster!

    Episode 153 - Escape from L.A.: LIVE!

    'Overboard' came out quite a bit before 'Capt Ron' but regardless LOVE Capt Ron. 'Overboard' I loved as a kid but as an adult am EXTREMELY skeeved by the plot (sorry Garry Marshall)

    Episode 153 - Escape from L.A.: LIVE!

    I have only one problem with this movie: who is maintaining the stadium lights in LA Memorial Coliseum for all their sessions of Murder H.O.R.S.E.? Great ep!

    Episode 152.5 - Minisode 152.5

    Yes, because me disagreeing with your point is synonymous with calling you an asshole.

    Episode 152.5 - Minisode 152.5

    I'm not judging people who can't afford it, we've all been there. Even feeling sad or upset about the change makes sense to me, you want something, you can't afford to have it, it sucks. I'm talking about people who feel that they are being "cheated" because working actors and writers have been providing entertainment for free are now asking to be reasonably compensated for that content. No, they don't need to "keep the lights on", they need to be fairly compensated for their work. "Bare minimum" is not the obligated payment for what has become a sizeable media network stacked with work created by some of the greatest rising talent in American comedy right now. They are not obligated to work in the red to provide free content.

    Episode 152.5 - Minisode 152.5

    Yes you can, and there is an INSANE amount of content, including basically every major comedy album to come out in the last 10 years, so many specials, mini-series, all the CBB tour stuff. It's insane to me the amount of content you guys use that you don't feel "good" about paying for. Sure, you only listen to 1 show. And then you camp in these forums. Who's paying for the hosting? There are no ads on here! Howl is less than $3/month if you sign up for the yearly plan, sheesh.

    Episode 151 - The 2nd Annual HOWDIES Pt. 1

    "That's a mandate for buns" That alone made this episode a winner for me

    Episode 462 - Breakin’ Since the 30s

    I'm 3 minutes in and I haven't heard reference to "the days of Dece-doggie" so basically this episode is dead to me. And like the dead, I will continue to listen to it closely and with great reverence.

    Episode 39 - A Sister Scorned

    I get that, but to have so little self awareness as this woman does is pretty funny to an observer. She goes on at length to say how insanely close she and her brother are (to the point people thought they were dating(!)) but can't understand why his wife wouldn't open up to her about their relationship? She loved this woman so much but could not see that she was in a failing marriage for 2 decades? Honestly, I feel bad for the ex because she was so tangled up in her husband's life it was like she had no outside perspective, just him and his crazy sister who was admittedly "worship[ful]" and "obsessed" with her and wanted to spend all waking hours with her. Could you imagine spending EVERY weekend with your spouse's family? WHO YOU ALSO WORKED WITH?? Also, the fact that the brother seems pretty resigned to this makes me think that she wasn't the only one stepping out on their marriage. The sister is tellingly vague about her brother's shortcomings, just "he has his own issues", issues that she states the ex dealt with for many years. I hope she seeks therapy to deal with her anger and sadness and also maybe look into working on her boundary issues!

    Episode 39 - A Sister Scorned

    Ooof, I'm only 30 minutes into this episode (the dick sucking quote) and I think that the ex-wife/sister-in-law was wise to slam down the self destruct button on that marriage. This caller is a real trip though!
  17. Best Blue Apron commercial in all of Earwolf

    Episode 456 - The Historic Rap

    Well laaaa deeee daaaa! Someone got to go to Europe and shit in a hole! jk, that's pretty crazy and would definitely make an Italian remake of 'Stand By Me' a lot different.

    Episode 147.5 - Minisode 147.5

    I feel "Peggy Sue Got Married" was the first movie where he just went totally left field with his choices. It's crazy to think that he did Vampire's Kiss only a year before Moonstruck and Raising Arizona!

    I'm running a 5k to raise awareness and fund research for Trademark Bootser Sarcoma, please donate!

    Episode 144 - Stealth

    According to IMDB, "people who liked Stealth also liked..." S.W.A.T. Paycheck The Core Next and 2006's Poseidon So basically lunatics
