Hot - Slunch

I've been waiting for a Wonder Years retrospective like this for years...

Did this Todd guy just have a nervous breakdown?

I'm not a football fan, only NBA, but I remember that Wonderlic story that you guys brought up. I thought that was amazingly funny. Not only did Tebow act like a douche in a scenario full of young athletes of varying religions, only to be told to "Shut the fuck up." He's a bad quarterback that can't throw. He shoves religion in people's faces, and does that cringeworthy kneeling prayer thing on the field... Plus he's way overhyped. This is the only time I remember someone thanking a deity other than Jesus/God. Larry Johnson thanking Allah after the 4 point play in 1999: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCohyolkoao There's also the Chris Jackson aka Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf national anthem incident. He became a Muslim and didn't feel like standing for the national anthem before NBA games. He did it for months before it became a headline, and then he was practically blackballed from the NBA... Just because he didn't stand for a song.

I love the rage in this episode. You can just feel the hatred.

I wasn't really feeling this episode until Bob Ducca showed up. Although, I do feel a little sad for his marriage to Gloria being a sham, he must be in a rough place right now. Maybe a night or two more at the ranch will do him some good.

I assume he's killed himself and finally became an all-seeing dragon. Now he's roaming the world and setting it ablaze, killing everyone he comes across. He's probably starting off slow so people won't get suspicious.

It's one of my favorite movies, I own the VHS and DVD. It's absolutely ridiculous, but I don't think it'd be right for this podcast.

Like two weeks ago, Brett Gelman said on his twitter that more Gelmania would be coming.

This show looks like everything I'd hoped for and more! Was that a nod to Evil Dead 2 when Reggie started freaking out?

I'm not ashamed to say that I went out and bought muffins because of this episode...

Speaking of Cyberthug, I have a feeling that he would've really gotten along with Mighty Joe Jon... If Mighty Joe Jon was still alive that is.

I feel so bad that Wanderlust didn't do well. It was a really funny movie, definitely enjoyable if you like anything Wain/Marino/etc. have done. A Byerly's reference Kulap? Every time I visit Minnesota I have to go to one.

"Cheddar is the workhorse of cheeses." So true.

Bjork killed this episode! Two, count 'em two, hit songs premiered, and she showed her range brilliantly. For her sake, I hope Emmy Rossum listens to this before hanging out with Ben. Can't wait for CBBTV!

I think my initial reaction to Man On The Street was so-so, mainly because I wasn't expecting it... Which is on me. Pro: It lets you guys go out into the world and get ridiculous stories/monologues that you can improv from. Which gives you an avenue that the room wouldn't otherwise go down. Con: It felt a little out of place, just because it was a random person instead of you or a guest. I don't really have a strong opinion one way or another, because it let to the same caliber of improv. I hesitated to even put my thought into the post because my surprise probably tainted the bit. I assume some of the so-so reactions are just because it's new. Keep doing the segment, or don't. I'll be listening either way, I am human after all.

I'm not a big fan of the 'Man on the Street' segment... But the improvs were great as usual. You can't go wrong with those four in the room.

Gary Busey and his acronyms were hilarious. There is so much mystery and intrigue surrounding him, like, who is the man in the half-attic?! On Friday morning I'll be at the opening show of Wanderlust!

How can you guys not like 'Clue'?

Tough get guests, good laughs, AND special guests? Did I die and go to the Olive Garden?

Holy crap! I wish a time machine existed so I could go to next week and listen right now.

Thus far, this is the best episode of 2012. Al and Todd were great as usual. Plus, Amy Phillips had another solid appearance, although I prefer her Jennifer Tilly by a hair. (Probably because I like Tilly more than Minnelli)

Thanks a lot man. Yeah, I was going through the PFT episodes, but I just couldn't find those bits. I was skipping around episode 28 and missed it until I just read your post and looked again. I just found the other episode too. It is #31, Happy Black Friday. Case closed!

Edit: Found the episodes, ignore this thread. Hey everyone, a few bits just popped into my head and I can't recall which episodes they're from. I've been racking my brain and trying to sift through episodes to no avail... If you could let me know the episode numbers I'd appreciate it. 1. John C. Reilly calls in to talk about Cirque Du Freak not making much money. (#28) 2. Ice-T visits and says he gets this question all the time: "Is Richard Belzer as hilarious in real life as he is on screen?" (#31)

Brett Gelman, comedian, author, playwright, poet, actor, rapper, and most importantly, truth teller. Great episode, Rich and Poor was hilarious. Now I'm just spitballing here, but Brett should think about parlaying these plays and stories into a Twilight Zone-esque half hour long tv show.
