  1. To be clear, I think Adam and Scott should sometimes reprise with concert audience experiences of live U2 concerts, ala Phish. To be more abundantly clear, I think it should be terrible episodes that are perfect by their own terribleness. To be perfectly abundantly clear, I think they should start talking about R.E.M. and R.E.M. band members while the name of the show is still U Talkin' U2 To Me

  2. If we're being honest here, and we are, I felt like at times PFT was doing a Jon Daly as Zappity Tappity with how he would steamroll certain bits and/or immediately cut someone off or interject without listening. Usually I have no qualms with PFT, but he seemed way more overeager than usual on this one, and I think it ended up squelching Wengert and eventually led him to clam up.

     

    Perfect critical read of the episode. I'm absolutely all in for letting PFT run amok everytime anytime always, as the reward always beats risk, but "squelched" is the perfect word for Wengert on this one. He didn't have much room here. The guy is super sharp and funny and I hope he gets more chances this year.

  3. Matt Belknap once again proving he is secretly the funniest guy on the show the only guy who gets shit done. He was the only one who actually related and talked like a human to the 7-11 crew. Pardo, you're hilarious, but weird bitterness and/or schtickiness often gets the best of you. And Andy Daly once again proving he makes every podcast better by unquantifiable astronomical math factor of like billions of billions

  4. Got through the intro and had to stop. In a good way. I don't know what this episode will be, but I'm happy it exists. There's more of Wittels here even if I can't bring myself to listen to it. Really happy about that. It's weird about how on TV there's just a card at the end, and how in podcast Scott had his time to talk honest and loving and personal, and we have recordings of Wittels in his best and worst moments, here, always, a lot. I love that podcasts record people and time spent. I love that. Podcasts are kind of an amazing thing, you guys. They're so dumb and good and I'm goofily happy they exist. It's happy though it hurts it's happy.

  5. Scott is endlessly charming and Letterman still has it. Think about how horrible that segment could have gone. Scott has a knack for perfect delivery and self-deprecation, and Letterman matched it and quipped without any loss of speed. A joy to watch for comedy fans. I'm especially giddy UTU2TM ever even got mentioned on television -- think about how crazy that is you fucks!


  6. Immeasurably sad. Besides everything he left us, all his Earwolf episodes and Parks and Rec, there were two amazing podcasts he did with Pete Holmes. "Harris Wittels Returns" Nov. 19, 2014 is classic and important. I can't recommend it more to anyone struggling with addiction, realizing now how it can end.

  7. When the bonus episode last week wasn't this, I feared scheduling would kill the continuing saga. So glad everybody came through. This show somehow never fails -- and bonus points for recording on actual Valy day. Scott's direction and inclusion of Colin Hay, PFT's energy and joy for juggling two characters, and Gilly's smarter and smarter play-alongness was just pure fun. Fucking great ep. Best this year yeah I'm calling it

  8. The only thing funnier than a show breaking down is when everyone realizes the show has broken down and reaciting to that. Scott and Adomian, the professionals, plowed through it. Walsh called himself out. Cross just kinda bailed. You didn't have to bail, Cross! It's just a podcast, go nuts have fun.


  9. Again, guests like these are difficult episodes for Scotty Ox -- I'll introduce myself in a minute -- yet he keeps the funny. I'll introduce myself in a minute but let's give a little a credit to a host with talent. And for all this over-rating of Sanz -- and I'll introduce myself in a minute -- Sanz drops clunkers, he's inconsistent, inexplicably lazy, and hit-or-miss. Scott and PFT professionally never miss.
