Not to steal Jeff's thunder, but I thought his post of 6 podcasting industry predictions for 2013 article on AllThingsD was super-interesting, especially the info about how Earwolf is doing financially.

Look at this guy, thinks he's a journalist! It's a good article, agree with most of it. Really surprised by those ad numbers, especially since podcast advertisers seem to be a fairly small group. If ad revenue has gone up like that, then it must be effective for them. I hope the TV stuff ends up with a full fledged network just so Besser can have his own 30 minute show of him screaming at the Jets and Razorbacks.

We've already had that meeting with Besser. He wants to add people from the Earwolf Forums to that list as well.

I guess Legendary buying Nerdist doesn't count?

I didn't include Nerdist/Legendary there because they weren't really buying the podcasts. They were buying Chris, the Nerdist brand, the YouTube channel, etc. Chris and the Nerdist brand are so far ahead of us and most podcasters, it's not really the same thing. I thought about mentioning it, but I had already hit 1,200 words and I would have had to write too much to explain the difference so I left it out.

Send him over here! (So he can yell at the General Bullshit sub-forum instead :v:)

The latest improv episode, with the twin brother episode has be the funniest skit I've ever heard so far. I'll never be able to focus on a boring conversation or speech again without imagining a super chill Raiders fan living inside their belly.

Got to agree, the latest I4H was amazing. Only an hour long and it was a truly a bizarre one. The whole dominatrix story was a joy to listen to and I don't know why those guys were so secretive about their jobs at the perfume company but Besser made sure they were called out for every little detail. It's why I love the guy, he always picks up on minor irregularities and rubs people's faces in it.

I also love how much joy Besser gets from making Ben Schwartz play out confrontational scenarios whenever he's on.

Buying Nerdist is buying a media empire run by a well known figure, which happened to include a very successful podcast network. I really doubt it was meant as some kind of stupid snub to not include them in the concept of a podcast network being bought because it's a podcast network.

when family's all that we got?
I didn't think it was a snub at all, he doesn't seem like that kind of dude. I thought he either overlooked that or was selling Earwolf short. With all the stuff he's said Earwolf has done in the past year and was in the process of doing (especially the non-podcast production stuff) I wouldn't really say they were "light years" away from where Nerdist was when they got acquired by Legendary. Sure, Chris Hardwick is Chris Hardwick, but it's not like Earwolf's stable of TV/movie/internet celebrity hosts is anything to sneeze at.

Lena Dunham, Jeff Tweedy, Michael Moore, Mitch Hurwitz, Sarah Silverman, Judd Apatow, Garry Shandling and Larry David is a pretty good lineup of guests for a podcast, I guess.

The biggest challenge will be preventing Garlin from talking for 90% of the show

The latest episode of Rafflecast is pretty funny. 7 minutes of Jon Daly impersonating a college-radio DJ and making up funny song names. If you're a fan of Bob Ducca's lists you should check it out.

Improv4Humans is always great but has been on a bit of a roll lately, lots of very funny stuff in the most recent one. (Might be worth getting its own thread since it tends to be the show that gets the most posts here).

Listened to the last Two Charted today and I think they spilled the beans on a secret behind the upcoming Analyze Phish ep. You might not want to mouse over this.
Howard Kremer and PFT recorded a podcast discussing Jaws under the title Analyze Fish, which will have an intro from Scott and Harris, which I'm sure is supposed to be a surprise reveal for AP fans tuning into the latest podcast. Oh well.

I don't really like Phish (had never heard of them before this series) but I like the way they're played in the podcast, in small segments until Scott goes "alright alright alright, turn it off I can't take that guys voice anymore". So I wouldn't mind if it keeps going as Analyze Phish instead of Fish

The part where Scott cuts him off every second the song starts because he think it's terrible had me rolling. Especially when Harris gets increasingly agitated and starts apologizing to the band "in case they're listening".


e: Haha, oh man, every song where it's a nice jam and then the second the singer comes on Scott cuts it off. I'm laughing all over again just remembering.

Having only listened to around 10 minutes of the latest podcast before having to go to work I hope there's some joke about Instagram filters in there because most of those are hilariously awful.
