  1. Fun ep! I love Jim Rash who fit in perfectly (I suspected he would given his background) and it gives me great pleasure that a first timer got to watch as Scott tries to pin Horatio into a corner by asking for so many details. Horatio is becoming one of my favorites because his improv comes from so far out of nowhere, it leads to some real hilarious stuff.

  2. I got super tickled when Howard shit all over Guardians of the Galaxy. If nothing else, just because of the comments section here lately. I haven't seen it, and have heard from most that it's a really good movie, but I was secretly hoping it would draw another reaction. That really made my day!

     

    Tooooooobs Charted!


  3. Angry Jimmy is around a lot on NNF. Most of the time it's a bit, but I've gotten the impression from listening (I just started listening when it came on to Earwolf, but have since purchased the players club and all the back episodes to Season 12 so far) that there have been a few occasions when angry Jimmy is actually angry. I find it a hilarious bit- even when he's walking the fine line between real and fake anger- but I'm guessing the times it's genuinely real it can feel a little awkward. No one likes it when Daddy's angry!

  4. Really interesting discussion. I've felt that the ambiguity of what happened with Mike Brown has lead to the rest of the incidents being overshadowed by the anger associated with the lack of indictment there. If that hadn't happened then we would be seeing a lot more dialogue regarding Garner, Rice, etc.

    I agree except for the last sentence. When I was younger I thought that was possible, but I'm pragmatic enough now to realize that dog whistle racists will always come up with excuses not to have a real dialogue, and they have a surprisingly loud voice in our 'accepted' discourse.

     

    Who knows... maybe in a couple more generations.

  5. This was a great episode! Jimmy predicted things might be a little off because of the residual physical effects of a 13 hour telethon coupled with an ill conceived guilt run the morning after, but nothing could have been further from the truth. Erin had a great chemistry with the show, and it made for one of my favorite episodes. Jimmy finding someone to talk baseball with was also a lot of fun, but listening to the last 3:30, between the jokes and the reactions to the jokes, had me laughing so hard I had to pause it for a couple minutes.

     

    Also, congratulations to NNF and everyone involved for such a successful telethon. I too was a little flummoxed by the donation flow and even made mention of it in the telethon comments. It was my first telethon so I wondered if people tended to give more towards the end of the show. It all panned out in the end and am so glad you were able to meet your goal and help so many people. It was a blast to watch (off and on), will buy the telethon to see the parts I missed, and look forward to #PCAT15!

  6. Howard was on an episode of NNF, episode 1218 and its fantastic, one of my favorites. But a new appearance would be awesome

     

    One of Jimmy's favorite movies is Jaws so he might not have put up too much of fight if it came down to Breaking Away vs Jaws. I apparently know way too much about Jimmy Pardo.

     

    Just ordered season 12 because of this. I'm hooked on Jimmy now and this was a good excuse to get it.
