Episode 210 — Artisanal Podcasting

[Episode 210 — Artisanal Podcasting]

What was this an episode of Hollywood Handbook? So much speaking on that.

 

Bonus points for a mention of "hamburger sandwich".

[Episode 1422 - Vance Gilbert]

Good episode. I realized halfway through that I saw this guy open for George Carlin several years back and really enjoyed him. Cool story, bro?

[Episode 185 — Letting Go of Macklemore]

May I just say that I have been kinda crushin on Karen Kilgariff since the Mr. Show days.

[Episode 16 — Commentary Special]

I think it would be great to play this for my parents to explain what a podcast is.

[Episode 28 — Zach Gilford, Our Close Friend]

Jordan Morris, you were in the movie All About Steve. Follow up question, do you like Jesse Thorn more or less now that he has a beard and children?

[Episode 268 — What Does the Fonz Say?]

I love when an I4H reg comes on Bang Bang and crushes it. I'm talking Wengert, I'm talking Lapkus, I'm talking Parham. Now Sodaro? To paraphrase McDonalds, "I'm loving it".

[Episode 8 — Who’s Got My Goo Balls?]

This was one of those moments where I realized how deep my unhealthy attachment to comedy nerdery runs by just how visceral my reaction to seeing that Tom was a guest on Analyze Phish was.

 

edit: I apologize for the disgusting sentence structure.

[Episode 107 — Slime Boy]

I didn't mean to double post so I will use this post to tell everyone to follow their dreams.

 

That's how you make some fucking lemonade, assholes!

[Episode 107 — Slime Boy]

If you guys ever to an I4H award show, I think one of the front runners for Best Callback has to be when Charlie Sanders made the comment about the "Bert" ecstasy being named after the guy that won the mayoral election.

 

Also, I L'ed very much OL when Betsy exclaimed "Tim Meadows!" when he showed up in that one scene.

[Episode 245 — Poehler Ice Caps]

I'm not sure what's more irritating, this guy's obnoxious insistence that he is right and everyone is wrong or ending every post with "Word." What are you, a Looney Tunes sweatshirt with Daffy Duck wearing baggy pants and a backward baseball cap?

[Episode 65 — Howard the Duck: LIVE!]

Best ep since Sleepaway Camp!

[Episode 129.5 — 5/24/13 TWO CHARTED 68]

I did this for some reason:

[Episode 206 — Live from SXSW 2013]

Tim Heidecker is to funny what finding out your date is a tranny is to sexy. first its hot, then it's uncomfortable, then it's just obviously a person with some self love issues.

Cripes that is one labored analogy.

[Episode 22 — MIND = BLOWN]

I only know Tevin Campbell from Inspectah Deck's verse in Wu-Tang's "Protect Ya Neck." Who is he and what did he do, other than say goodbye.

Its just this and his appearance on Fresh Prince for me.

 

...roughneck, inspectah deck's on the set.

[Episode 113.5 — 2/1/13 TWO CHARTED 52]

Goddammit, that gift theme was glorious.

[Episode 65 — Computer Strength]

I don't understand Matt's point when he said "If I was a writer for SNL, I might say 'too soon' [to the sketch]." If "too soon bugs the crap out of [Matt]" and "is dangerous," how can that be said? That doesn't jive with me. Does that mean that, for wider audiences, "too soon" makes sense? I honestly don't understand that. I would like to hear Matt clarify that point.

 

I'm not Matt but the way I took that point was that it was less about SNL having a wide audience and more about the difference between the mediums of television and podcasting. It's possible to just turn on your TV and have something that offends you being in front of you through no fault of your own. With podcasting there are so many steps you have to go through before you are listening.You are seeking out a podcast that you know is a comedy podcast, seeing the description, then proceeding to download and listen. It would be damn near impossible for someone to just happen upon it. It's just an inherently different medium than network television.

[Episode 193 — What Else? What Else?]

Doesn't the fact that Marissa Wompler is one of the most popular characters kind of rule out the sexism angle?

You remind me of people that will say really racist things then justify it by mentioning their one black friend.

[Episode 107.5 — 12/21/12 TWO CHARTED 46]

The irony that my favorite whooch/tooch moment of 2012 might just have been the unveiling of the Wie-Wie Bear. I especially enjoyed what sounded like genuine fright in Engineer Brett's voice when he said "What the fuck is that?!"

[Episode 187 — Finger Chimes]

Nat Faxon is one of those guys that shows up in a million shows/movies/commercials and is always good in it, even if the thing itself isn't that good.

[Episode 186 — New York Mainstays]

Fogelnest haters can sit on it*. He's great and so is the Fogelnest Files!

 

Also, there has been like 4 or 5 episodes in the past couple months that after listening to them I think "That might have been the best episode ever." This was another one of those.

 

*penis, thumb or feelings

[Episode 53 — Live from RIOT LA]

As soon as Bill Cosby was mentioned I just knew Daly was gonna get in on that action.

[Episode 101 — Crazzle Dazzles]

 

No, it's absurd how PC the world is. What world do we live in where it isn't 'strange' that a male director becomes a female one and they go from brothers to starship. That isn't making any value judgement on their choice, but it certainly is strange.

 

Ugh, the PC thing again. Is it really that hard to be compassionate and understanding? Transgender people aren't just deciding on a whim to change sexes just cause it sounds fun. Most of them live their lives uncomfortable in their own skin not necessarily knowing how to deal with it. A lot of them just think there is something wrong with them and often end up committing suicide because they can't handle the pain of not fitting in to society. They know that there's enough people that will just call them "weird" and "freaks" if they actually do something to make their lives better and more livable.

 

But yeah, YOU'RE the one that's being persecuted because everybody's so "PC".

[Episode 96.5 — 10/5/12 TWO CHARTED 35]

This is not meant as any sort of slight on Whooch Prime, which I love, but Tooch is so loose and joy-filled that it has become the number 1 version of the show in my heart. Gigglez-a-plenty!

[Episode 95.5 — 9/28/12 TWO CHARTED 34]

I'd be surprised if Howard hadn't heard of Aesop Rock. He's not exactly an unknown.

 

And I don't want to sound like I'm calling you out specifically as I'm not one to start internet arguments, but as someone whose iPod is about 80% rap music, I get frustrated with "hip hop snobs" who only listen to the stuff that white people like. Don't get me wrong, I'll listen to a Talib Kweli or a Del tha Funky Homosapien or certainly an MF DOOM, but you're more likely to hear me bumping some T.I. or Jay-Z. I can't tell you how many times I've had to just give up on trying to defend Lil Wayne or Kanye West to hipster friends, but this is the life I've chose or rather the life that chose me...

[Episode 176 — Out of Bleeps]

This was one of those episodes I had to stop listening to because I was in public and couldn't hold it together. Holy shit.
