EPISODE 103 — Allan McLeod, Our Close Friend

[EPISODE 103 — Allan McLeod, Our Close Friend]

I was worried because, having never heard of the guest before, he looked kind of nebbishy and he sounded really low energy. But as he talked, I discovered that he was really funny, and I remembered that I like both of those things. Anyway, Allan McLeod was a good guest.

Oh, he did the boy-ghost in those halloween CBB. That's cool.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

I'm going to isolate the bit of the lapodfest end where sean tells us all to be kind to each other, and then set that as my avatar.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

Steve you dolt Wiger has already been on (ep 44)

 

He even plays a proto-game of Snack or Whack,

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

Classic handle.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

I'm listening to old HH epis on Howel but it's not because the boy's insidious marketing strat but because back then they used to say things were too scary, and ask PCG, and now everything is different and confusing. Hayes still laughs like a hyena with a megaphone, before Eggs shamed him out of it. Anyway, Damien Fahey was a really good guest.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

If someone yr with doesn't listen to podcasts it's very easy to entertain them because you can just steal jokes wholesale from all yr pod-favourites.

 

It's my birthday and I'm with some guy who wants to produce a podcast of anything I want to do. I'm drunk and don't kno wat to do.

 

Happy birthday and happy birthday-pod.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

 

They're from New Zealand. You racist.

 

Whoops, major apologies to the pair.

Stop Podcasting Yourself: I used to listen to the eps where PFT was on, but then I unfollowed him on twitter so I don't think I'll ever listen to it again.

The Adventure Zone: the McElroy brothers play DnD. Enjoyable to listen to.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

Just throwing some other p-casts out there: Pistol Shrimps Radio - 1/2 of Superego improvise a basketball match over a sound effects track of sneakers squeaking and foghorns blaring. With occasional guest Tig Notaro.

TWB: all your favourite features, Ask Agata, July's Funny Pages, a hodown... they're all here!

Worst Idea of All Time. it's kinda fun to listen to Australian people going insane.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

doughboys is a good podcast because Nick Wiger is the only comedian working today with sincere opinions about the Nintendo 64 game Banjo-Kazooie

 

I like how Mitch is half-seriously feuding with like, 40% of their guests.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

I relistened to this week's epi while walking around town and i gotta say: it's a good one. nice of sean to step in and make sure we all know hayes doesn't think wasps do the bee-gut-stinger thing, nice of joegert to just pal out. Uh, Andrew Ti seemed a little angry but I think that's just how Sean takes most people.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

Also congratulations Sean on yr imminent nuptials. Wishing you a long and happy married life.

Agata or Hayes or someone, he's probably too busy to read the forums, so just pass him the word when you see him next

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

Congrats to Greggy for securing Sean Celmdawg Clements on today's epi of Podcasts are Wonderful.

[EPISODE 102 — Joe Wengert Again, Our Close Friend]

I've not listened to the epi yet, but I love Joegert. Also, it's Hayes under the christmas tree, when I first saw that snap I thought for sure that'd be a Sean goof, but he's right there, not wearing a tree at all.

[EPISODE 101 — The Grease Knows Eggs Show with Jesse Thorn]

Mog White.

[EPISODE 101 — The Grease Knows Eggs Show with Jesse Thorn]

Haye's negotiating tactic of insisting they name the podcast to be dropped to make room for him is a classic.

[EPISODE 101 — The Grease Knows Eggs Show with Jesse Thorn]

Cody has fucking unbelievable comic timing on those error noises. oh man they're so good

 

The Donkeh returns.

[EPISODE 101 — The Grease Knows Eggs Show with Jesse Thorn]

As much as I love Eggs, Hayes, Enginier Cody Cody Boy and Jesse Thorn, I'm too much of a Seanophile for this epi to crack my top ten.

The endless recycling of jokes in an attempt to get this right reminds me of the minimalistic musical movement of like Phillip Glass and Micheal Nyman if those guys spent 3 minutes arguing in between going down a scale or w/e.

[EPISODE 100 — Aasif Mandvi, Our Big Get / Scott Ankerman, Our Business Rival]

If we can talk about the backroom boy's podcast, Trends with Benefits, here, let me say: lol at July trying to tackle Zippy the Pinhead, the famously impenetrable strip about 60s kitschy motels and drive throughs. That's an advanced-level strip.

Also you should check out Apartment 3G: the artist is 92 and is ignoring the writer's set directions, who has responded by telling a story about tibeten monks and curses.

e: if this is the wrong place to talk about TWB pls copy and paste this into the right place thank you.

[EPISODE 100 — Aasif Mandvi, Our Big Get / Scott Ankerman, Our Business Rival]

Sean is your iphone OK

[EPISODE 99 — Paul Rust Again, Our Close Friend]

Do we know what the boys are doing w/ their glut of America hats? are they handing them out to guests along w/ the scratch cards or straight in the bin?

[Episode 98 — John Cochran Again, Our Close Friend]

Andrew here, nice to meet you.

[Episode 98 — John Cochran Again, Our Close Friend]

Rusty, you used to have blonde hair, but now it's black: are you goth?

[Episode 38 — Matt Gourley, Our Close Friend]

Matt is now my improv teacher. good boy, told him that Hollywood Handbook was my favorite show and I don't think he's ever heard that phrase judging by the look on his face.

 

You went up to a guy who has 10 podcasts of his own, and told him yr fave is one he was on, once. Major faux-pas, I'd expect some pretty vicious notes from now on.

[Episode 98 — John Cochran Again, Our Close Friend]

What are you listening to?

 

This week's episode again. Guess i'm a true handbookhead
