  1. I had to look up those "Deepest Bluest" lyrics. A couple of my favorite lines: "I ate your ancestors, the ocean is haunted" and "your life vest is off, and that turns me on" ...Man, I prematurely commented. Didn't realize they were going to play that whole song at the end, and then discuss ocean ghosts afterwards

    Episode 8 — Take My Death Away

    I decided to revisit Mike Detective today, and this was the first time I caught all those U2 references in this episode! Thanks "U Talkin' U2 to Me?"
  3. I was kind of hoping someone would yell "We gain nothing by losing our heads!"
  4. "I miss my friend, and I love him" I was kind of able to 'tough out' the intro until that, but then there was just no use in even trying. Thankfully, shortly after, an 11 year old Harris was telling Pauly Shore that John Holmes was his favorite porn star
  5. Hey man, I feel you, but life can still be good. It allows us to listen to those foam corners over and over again whenever we want. I know it sucks that we get no more Harris, and he had so much potential beyond what he'd already given, but at least his death doesn't mean we get any less of what's already here. He was very potent spice in the world of comedy, had an awesome quality vs quantity ratio. I forgot to mention the other great things in life. Not gonna list them all, but stashberry pie is up there
  6. I can't believe I forgot about the "infomaniac" foam corner! He receives (I presume) nonconsentual sex from just some guy, and his reaction is "no, no, no, you seem to have misunderstood me". Harris was so damn chill!
  7. I was worried that this was going to be too hard to listen to, but I'm enjoying myself! It's because of this episode! It's good! It's funky!

    I remember this as an Eardrop response from Harris to an Eardrop bit that Scott Aukerman recorded for what I suspect was meant to be an April fools thing, but maybe got played a couple days early. The episode following the one with the heaven message has a call from Harris returning "amongst the living". I wish podcasts could come true

    I really have never been more appreciative of the Earwolf forum and the community of fans than I have these past couple of days, and am so thankful to Scott, and Jeff, and all who were involved in providing the possibility for it to exist. Almost all the weird, sad, confused feelings that I haven't really been able to find words for have pretty much been summed up here by others. When I first heard the bad news I was so confused by how much it effected me. The now apparently common "but I never even met him." thought made me feel, for a lack of a better word, like I did not 'deserve' to feel the way that I did when there are plenty of actual friends of Harris with much more reason to mourn. Though my feelings of loss obviously pale in comparison to those who were personally close to him, it's comforting to see that I don't have to feel ridiculous for having them. Also, on a lighter note, am I the only one who thought his Earwolf photo was him posing on a bicycle? Until today I never noticed that it was just him holding onto the backs of two chairs.
  10. That part about 28 minutes in where Harris can't hold back laughter while explaining that their other lumber store is called "Carl's Junior Hamburgers" is probably the moment I've rewound & replayed more than any other moment in CBB/CDR history

    I shouldn't have tried listening to this first thing after getting to work this morning. Couldn't make it through Marc's introduction of the episode without tearing up a bit. Think I'll save that one for later, and stick to Lapkus and Twooch this morning

    My personal favorite: Austin and Ace

    Been getting choked up and laughing simultaneously when checking in with the twitter feed tonight. I've honestly probably spent more time listening to his podcast appearances than I've spent in actual interaction with some close relatives. I know this doesn't in any way mean I actually knew the guy, but it still makes me feel sick in my guts. Can't imagine how people who actually knew and loved him as a friend are feeling

    Eardrop episode #19. 4:36

    Damn, that hurts. I was just thinking the other day about how he hasn't been on Earwolf in a while, and hoped he was staying clean. Poor guy, I'll miss him

    EPISODE 103 — Zardoz

    Anyone know enough about guns to tell if those bullets in Connery's bandoliers could ever fit in his revolver? Are they completely useless?
  17. This guy gets a [figurative] boner from asserting his dominance over people in already humiliating situations, and shares the video as though it's a great public service. Sure, theft is wrong, but acting like a giant child playing "hero" is pretty terrible too. It's worth mentioning that there's another video of him doing the same thing to a different woman where he says that he doesn't even work for Walmart.
  18. Jodorowsky absolutely deserves to be reviewed by the HDTGM gang. Everything he's done looks expensive and/or tedious, and has an anticipated limited audience. I genuinely believe that his films are valuable, but it's hard to explain why. As a bonus, Zouks would probably find plenty of stuff to jerk off to.....
  19. Just judging from the trailer, it looks like someone watched "El Topo" and "The Holy Mountain" and said "Maybe I should do something like that." Not saying that that's necessarily the case, or that it would even be a bad thing if it were. It looks interesting and full of all kinds of weird.

    Episode 215 — Rhythms of Society

    I'd forgotten all about Bono's influence on Patrick McMahon! https://www.youtube....utu.be&t=19m54s (19:54 in case I didn't add the time stamp to the URL correctly)

    Episode 328 — Beatle Heaven

    Kind of just somewhat related, but my favorite Ringo moment always makes me laugh:
  22. No lies or exaggerations here. I was having a devil of a time sleeping last night, dozing on and off, and woke up at least five times with Sinatra's "It was a very good year" playing in my head. Haven't thought about that song or even any Sinatra song in years. I don't put much faith in extra sensory whatevers, but maybe I might be spending so much time with CBB that I'm achieving some kind of mind meld with the titular earwolf?
  23. It's definitely one o' the shortest ones I can think of
  24. This was the first best of count down in which I was so sure of which episode would be #1 that I really should have sought out a bookie that handles these kinds of things
  25. I suggest Scott seek some advice from his ex stepfather for some ways to treat his "super dry eye"
