We learn a lot about Old Man Juarez in this episode.

And Jon Daly ordering some 'chos. Looking forward to the rest of the season! Great ep today. Really love Kroll and Peretti's chemistry.

I noticed this right as I started it. The sound is outstanding. Even Adam Ant sounds good.

Considering they tape all of these a year in advance, I already am.

Giving the old "fuck you" to the fans of the show really doesn't seem like Scottabot's style. I think this whole thing has gotten way blown out of proportion. People are allowed to not like certain aspects of a program. Comedy Bang Bang is leaps and bounds the best comedy podcast being made right now. It certainly is my favorite. However, we, as fans, are allowed to voice our opinion about not liking a character because of the way that it is perceived in our own personal eardrums. I shouldn't have phrased my first post as exclusive to female characters, the sighing moan voice that Nancy offers just aurally displeases me. That being said, if this many people love the character then maybe I'm being overly analytical. I'm willing to give her another try.

Gabrus strikes me as a real romantic type. Great episode. ALVIN!

Understandable. I guess one of the issues I've noticed too is that there are so many more options for men when it comes to impression characters (Ice-T, Jesse Ventura, Huell, etc.) for whatever reason. I suppose that breeds more of a responsibility on the female comedians to come up with their own characters more often. The only two female impression characters I can think of off the top of my head from the show are Jennifer Tilly and Gwyneth Paltrow when there has been a myriad of male impression characters.

That's fair. Now I just feel like a dick.

I just find the character's voice grating. I loved the majority of the episode and I think that a lot of the content that was contained in the character's narrative was funny. It's just tough to listen to. That being said, there are certain male characters too that I have the same problem with. Merrill Shindler being a prime example of this. I suppose I shouldn't have lumped all female characters together, but it does kind of detract from the listening experience when the voice is so irksome.

Okay, just whiny and annoying then.

That was Lennon Parham. She does Listler too. I take her and JSC out of this category.

Why does it seem that there are so many female characters that are just whiny, annoying idiots? Wompler and Listler and the only ones I can think of that don't fall in this category.

It's a long way to the top in the ladder business. Welcome to Comedy Bang Bang, I'm Pot Kettleman.

Was the guy with the potato chip the same guy who had information on parallel universes that he would offer in exchange for not having his ass kicked?

I loved that episode. I think that the Mel Pelvin bit could have at least been a B-b-b-b-bonus-s-s-s clip (bro). I'm not at all surprised with the top 5. Those are the ones I predicted in the Pt 1 forum. I think like Scott said, it's a mixture between high profile guests and quality bits that are going to be at the top. I personally loved every episode that was on this top 10 and I think this year has been outstanding. There were definitely a couple shockers not making it for me (Climbing the Ladder, Breaking Bread and the aforementioned Clones and Oliver Stones), but all in all a solid list in my opinion. Looking forward to 2013!

Come with me, Emily Mrtimr.

You had me until there. Saul Goodman is great on Breaking Bad, but that appearance belongs nowhere in the Top 10. I'm guessing (hoping) top 5 will be Time Bobby, Wipeout!, Out of Bleeps, Farts and Pro 2 and either New No Nos or Scavenge and the Wisemen.

Was that Joel who was saying he went to school in Greensboro, NC?

iTunes should be fired.

Really? I thought it was one of the funniest. The monologue for Newsroom was priceless. The discussion about the bet with Bruno Kirby was also great. Honestly, the first appearance by those two characs was not my favorite, but thought this one was outstanding. Maybe worth a relisten?

There's 33 vertebrae in the human body, but 108 is significant for a lot of other, more way awesome reasons: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/108_(number)

New No-No's is my new favorite segment right behind New Ho-Ho-Ho's.

Walk with me, Emily Mrtimr.

I voted for all but one of these. Love George St. Geegland and Gil Faizon. Also surprised Finger Guns didn't crack the top 5. Great so far though. Looking forward to the top 5!
