After that other "donation guest" episode where the guy just tried to do what Scott does during Harris' Phone Corner, it sounds like it could indeed lead to disaster.

That's maybe one of my favorite episodes (although admittedly I love any episode with Harris). I thought that guy held his own pretty well for a non-comedian and we got Gelman's amazing monologue and "gently caress white people" rap.

Gelman is indeed amazing, but I don't think the non-comedy guest was very good.

You do get to choose your guests though. Mine would be Tim Heidecker and an ambient musician, and I'd laugh as podcast listeners everywhere blew their brains out.

The best donation episode combo would be Armen Weitzman and Matt Besser. Imagine the atmosphere of the episode of Who Charted they did together amplified by them both knowing this rear end in a top hat sitting next to them paid $5000 to recreate that.

Was Rauch doing both Kimmy and Katie? It sounded like they overlapped a few times but I couldn't place who the other voice was. I also really like Seth. He kinda' gets lost in the crazy.

Edit: Nevermind it was Lennon Parham as Kimmy. She is rapidly overtaking Jessica as my favorite of the pair after watching Playing House.

Kulap just repeats everyone's jokes but she does balance out Howard's almost autistic personality. I usually stick with Who Charted through the music chart, if the guest is decent.

I don't mean to sound like an rear end in a top hat, but Kulap's Origin Story documentary looks boring and self-indulgent. It's probably cathartic for her to create, so I'd give it a pass if the kickstarter goal was $10,000 or something. But $110,000? Holy poo poo.

I dont even think its an opinion , let alone a bad opinion, that Kulap is not funny. She literally never tries to be funny or say anything funny. She seems cool but if anyone can find evidence of her being funny i actually would like to see it

Uh.
Kulap is really good at making guests open up, and her role is to be the straight man to Howard's weirdness.

She's really good at talking to/interviewing/reacting to weirdos, see the Armen episodes, where she spends like half of each episode talking him out of a shame spiral.

I listen to Who Charted if the guest is someone I like, and it's usually pretty entertaining then.

Six figures is a loving absurd amount of money to ask for in an indie movie crowdfunding campaign, especially if it's seriously just for post production.

If I could, though, I would buy that sweet EP credit and launch myself into the world of Hollyweird.

I agree that is a crazy amount of money. But her and Scott are so Hollywood, I can't imagine them doing this like a college kid would.

Her episode of You Made It Weird, assuming you can handle vintage Pete Holmes, has a lot of riffing (before it gets into her family story and I Want To Believe stuff that Pete eats up). It's not GREAT comedy but it's good imho.

edit: I guess it's not really as good as I remember. Well, I tried.

Kulap's much more in the good-natured fun person vein of funny, which doesn't stand out in the company she's usually in. It's a big reason why she works well with Howard though.

I stopped listening to Who Charted for awhile but it's a fun podcast, and Two Charted is an occasional listen for me.

I like Kulap, but I was not really interested in hearing an extended, straightforward plug for a serious documentary on this comedy podcast. Luckily Gino is a national treasure, so that made up for any dull stretches

I agree with you. I like Kulap well enough, but I don't really understand her career very much. I don't understand the point of Who Charted nor do I understand the point of this movie.

She's an actress. Kinda weird to debate whether she's funny when it's not her profession. She just happens to be surrounded by comedians because her husband and all their friends are comedians.

(I really like Kulap and think both Who Charted and she as a person are really swell. When I say she's not funny, it's not an insult.)

Don Pardo just died. MUSIIIIIIIIIIICAL GUEST... SATAN! I'm sure he's in heaven but it's more fun to say than God.

I wasn't talking about her level of funniness so much as I don't understand why a podcast exists that's just two sort of funny people talking about the week's charts. Or what the appeal is for the general public of watching her movie. That's all I'm saying, I think she's a nice lady and I think she's a fun podcast presence whether she's funny or not, I just don't understand why these things are things.

"Two sort of funny people talking about the weeks charts" is an incredibly good podcast concept compared to 99% of podcasts that exist

Drunkboxer

Yeah and the concept is "get to know our guest by discussing the charts" so it's half charts and half interview. I like Who Charted but I kind of got burned out on it, I guess. I thought this was a pretty decent episode.
