Nobody under the age of 30 legitimately likes U2, they just listen to music made by bands who legitimately like U2.

I dislike Phish and love Analyze Phish so I get why peeps want more of the same from this, but this is clearly a different type of thing. For one, both Scotts yapped a bunch about how boring October is and hinted strongly at future ripping on Rattle and Hum and other later albums. Anyone who listened to episode 1 and heard nothing but U2 love gets a C- in listening.

I haven't bought a U2 record since ACHTUNG! bebee came out in my last year of high school so I'm not about to mount a modern day defence for them but even today, the 28th of February 2014, anyone who fails to recognise the greatness of War at the very least fails as not just a recogniser of bold, fierce, beautiful, raw, adventurous pop/rock greatness, but as a collection of molecules possessed of something resembling a personality.

So does Jason Mantzoukas. It's such an easy way to play the game, but leads to some magnificent moments.

Happy Birthday Lu. And can Gillian be the guest every week please.

So good I already forgot that other guaranteed Best of 2014 episode with Benny and Horatio. SO GOOD!

Last night when I signed into my NNF Primo and saw this news I put my shirt over my head like soccer players used to do and ran around my living room as if I'd just scored in the World Cup final, such was the triumph and joy in my heart at this union.

Benny's a lot of fun and Horatio really brung it real nice as usual, but hot damn was The Choctaw killing it this episode.

Scott's old pal Jimmy Pardo is fond of a 9/11 crack or seventeen, perchance it was he.

Couldn't help noticing that this episode was one of the best ever.

I was one of those thoughtless buffoons who rooted against Totally Laime in the Earwolf Challenge but very shortly after they won I realised I had been Totally Wrong. Loved this episode by the way.

Holy crap, you got DAG. That's top notch getting right there.

The first step is admiting you have a problem.

Maybe it's just me, but for me, sometimes I had trouble telling Jimmy and Bill apart.

Scott: "What were the other heavens again?" Richard Harrow: "Beach heaven" Scott: "That's a great one, I want to go there." Richard Harrow: "Jewish Heaven." Scott: "No thanks." Richard Harrow: "Dog and cat heaven." Scott: "Oh, I would kind of like to go there too ... except I'm allergic to cats." Richard Harrow: "Non dog and cat pet heaven." Scott: "Oh, so any other pets ... we have the cockatoos ..." Richard Harrow: "Turtles ..." Scott: "Iguanas ..." Richard Harrow: "Ferrets ..." Scott: "Those little kind of poisonous lizards that secrete the poison from their elbow ..." Richard Harrow: "Turtles." Scott: "Oh, turtles, yeah." Richard Harrow: "One African grey parrot who managed to die before its owner." Scott: "All fish." Richard Harrow: "Every fish." Scott: "Even the ones in the ocean because those are, sort of, the world's pets." [Long pause as PFT tries really hard not to lose his shit out loud]

Such an odd episode. First poor old Will zonked out on drugs and then Richard Harrow turns up with his even more low energy monotone and I really wasn't feeling it much, to the point I was almost zoning out. But then just when I thought it was safe to stop paying attention he'd nail me. The skeleton ladders section in particular woke me up but good. The Choctaw was A+ throughout though,

This was one of the greatest episodes of either Whooch or Tooch. Whatever How was on, keep him on it. Keep him hammered.

Emily was magnificent in this episode. Ron was splendid. How was so How. That picture is magical by the way.

Yeah, good call, I loved Chico too. Beef continued in my soul. Heck yes it was. Last two eps have been the best two plugs themes of the year back to back to back to back.

Scott harping on with the questions about how much Stephen makes was hilarious too. I can't get enough of him yammering away socially inappropriately. Speaking if inappropes though, it may be something to do with me being a damn foreigner and not being "with the programme", but I thought "dyke" almost always used as slur, so it took me off guard quite a few times. I liked the charac, just found the name distracting.

Very fun episode. Callen's mix of guy-who's-read-every-book and guy-who's-done-every-push-up always entertains.

Best new charac since Fourvel? I think he just might be.

Hey, look Scott, The Sklars already took Bryan Callen, you better be sure to get D'Elia or Sasso before some other down-with-the-kids Earwolves snaffle 'em up.

Thanks to Andy Daly for being sooooooooo Andy Daly. And thanks to Zach for being the voice to the laughter in my soul.

Why can't The Choctaw say he was bummed out hearing a bunch of folks say they didn't like an episode?
