Episode 89 — Erin Whitehead, Our Close Friend

[Joe McGurl 8358]

In addition to the episode being very funny, I was particularly moved by Erin's story about her aforementioned HH experience.

When I listened to the original episode where the Wild Horses were brought in for being loud, I thought it was so cool that these people and this comedy world exists.

That incredibly smart and funny people are everywhere, outside each other's doors, and they can barely know each other and still be so funny together. It's was something to behold.

After finishing this most recent episode, I went downstairs to cut watermelon where I did some thinking.

Erin does occasionally give me a jolt of anxiety or awkwardness, which I think is something to look deeper into my own life about, but something about this event was different.

It seemed brave of her to admit her experience, and it was unique that we got to see the origin of the bit and see the hidden aftermath later.

Did I feel pathos about the misunderstanding? Was it her straightforward honesty? Was it because crying and defensiveness was mentioned? That someones actions caused unintentional "pain"? Was there someone to blame? What lesson is to be learned? Why am I asking myself all these questions?

On one level, It rattled my fantasy about how amazing it would be to be in their comedic world.

On another, it bolstered the fantasy further that they turned something, if it were in my life I would consider shitty or embarrassing, and instead made humor come from it.

Not sure I landed on any real takeaway though.

I spent a whole watermelon thinking about this.

 

nice try Ged

Also, took about 4 listens to get through the podcast. Funny stuff.

why it take you so long Houston?

[souprman 10477]

did you guys hear the new global release day for music is now Friday?

 

why they do that?

 

(sorry, i'll try that again)

 

WHY THEY DO THAT, OBAMA?!

[Game of Scones 5812]

I'm so confused

Really goof episode. Did i say goof? Thats a typo its a good episode. But while we r on the subject of goofs i think the real goof is supreme court. Do they not know that their decision is a direct attack on God? Do they not know that its misogynist because why gays can be married but i have yet to see a ban lifted on lesbian marriage. So i double hate it because i love women and God. And my woman is my queen. I tell her every day that her ancestors were kings and queens and she has the source of all life inside her, melanin. Unlike a large majority of caucasians she has this melanin, which i equate to the soul. She is truly my queen with the strength and beauty of a thousand whites.

 

So great episode!

Attention Colt Barton: Do you know the exact date you met Shaq? I would love to be able to answer the musical question, "Where were you the day Colton Barton met Shaq at a Hooters in Phoenix, Arizoooona."

This would also be a perfect Popcorn Gallery question. Does SteveH have insider knowledge into next week's guest?

[souprman 10477]

oh! SteveH is it going to be Fernando Valenzuela?

[SteveH 11126]

It's Jimmy Carter

2 + 16 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 9 = 29

 

29 + 1 + 5 - 2 =

 

 

 

I'm in too deep guys. I have a bad feeling about this Colt guy.

[SteveH 11126]

February 16, 1942. Kim Jong il is born. 67 years later, Colt Barton met Shaq. 67 + 2=69. Coincidence?

[souprman 10477]

you guys this is already way too scary.

[Toro y Moist 695]

I agree with Souprman. This is Chonson's thread now anyways.

[SteveH 11126]

2/16/1942 - 2/16/2009= 67 years. 6+7=13.

 

13 x 7 = 91

 

91 = Dennis Rodmans number

 

Dennis Rodman. Kim Jong un and il. Kim Jong ils bday= same day colt Barton met Shaq

Can I post on this forum even though I don't have a pet?

Facts about me:

I am a girl.

I don't have any pets.

I think HH is great. Hayes and Sean are so nice and funny and smart that I went back and listened to the Reality Show Show and now I'm watching the Bachelorette and Big Brother and I'm just wondering -- is there a place for that kind of conversation here as well? Because those shows are, I'm now realizing, pretty good.

[souprman 10477]

SteveH i'm pretty sure you just opened a portal into the no korean dark net.
