Thank you for this Thread. You've all listed a lot of REALLY good podcasts. There is a podcast called RISK! Hosted by Kevin Allison formerly of The State. http://risk-show.com/ It is along the lines of The Moth podcast but I've noticed that, for the most part, the story tellers are mostly comedians and mostly hilarious. On a side note, I subscribe to the premium Never Not Funny feed and I can't get enough of it. It's well worth the price and the video just adds to the fun. They also have individual episodes up if you don't want to pay $20 for 26 episodes and some bonus ones in between. I think Marc Maron has a premium feed too, which I'm tempted to subscribe to as well. Don't be hesitant to pay for a good podcast or two, especially from very funny comedians like Jimmy Pardo and Marc Maron. Edit: There's also Walking with Michelle. It's updated infrequently but is a pretty funny one too. http://walkingwithmichelle.blip.tv/rss NecronSchmecron fucked around with this message at 16:49 on Aug 4, 2010 |

KING OF BLOGOSPHERE posted:How many of the comedy death rays have people doing characters? I listened to 63 and 62 after hearing how many people rave about it, and they were both awesome for the first 30 minutes and then some lame jerk came in doing a dumb character and completely ruined the rest of the show. I didn't like it at first either, but listening to them more and more they definitely grew on me. Any of the characters by James Adomian or Paul F. Tompkins is just gold. They usually say who does the characters at the beginning of the show or in the itunes description.

Do they explain why they posted early? Not that I'm complaining or anything. I haven't gotten to it yet. They are usually live on Friday and post the podcast shortly after.

Strange Matter posted:I guess I just don't like people playing characters on radio/podcasts. When I listened to the Adam Carolla podcast I skipped any episode with Van Stone or that fake Republican guy. I like it when people are funny being themselves Daww... I like Republican Senator Richard Martin  (played by Paul Gilmartin). It's cool that you don't like them though. I've had to realize slowly that comedy is subjective. By keeping this mindset, even though I may not find a certain thing funny, I've learned to understand why people find it hilarious. An example would be; I HAAAAAATE Tim and Eric. I just find almost nothing about them funny. I can see why people do though. Sometimes a dude jumping out of a dumpster yelling "SPAGET!" is hilarious to some. Who am I to look down on you for it just because I think it's dumb and not innovative at all. I get why it's supposed to be funny, it's just not for me. Ok, rant over. Back to your regularly scheduled thread.

I tried Uhh Yeah Dude earlier this week and couldn't get into it. I'm going to try again today because the praise for it is ridiculous ITT. I'm curious of all the podcasts recommended here what is one that everyone just couldn't enjoy or eventually ? I listened to Jordan, Jesse, Go for a few months but it had consistant stretches of boring "segments" in every episode that I just couldn't take it. It's weird because when either of them are on Never Not Funny or the one time I heard them both on Adam Carolla, I loved them! It's weird, I'm not gonna lie. I also ditched Adam Carolla for similar reasons. That and his opinions can get grate my nerves.

I'll admit, some episodes of CDR are kind of miss, but there is SO much more hit. Wait till they get to the Would You Rather game. I lost it when they talked about the pumpkin.

I had a feeling and it was when I heard Walking with Michelle with James Adomian that confirmed it. Is there a picture of this dude?

This may have been mentioned before, but Kevin Pollak is on this week's NNF and apparently he has a show too, Kevin Pollak's Chat Show. I've only heard the first two episodes and even though he's still fleshing things out at that point, it's REALLY funny. He has Levar Burton off the bat which is pretty awesome. Check it out.

I assume he does it to make the Audience feel he is addressing them. He is all about the fans from what I've heard. I must also state that I only have the audio because I listen to the majority of my podcasts at work. Obviously the video is a "no, no" here. Edit: Please try to ignore the amount of times he uses the word "literally". He hasn't done it a lot on these first couple episodes but it was every other word on NNF this week. I find him incredibly funny, though, so the teeth grating annoyance is quickly off set by the amount of funny Pollak produces.

Bo-Pepper posted:I love so many of these podcasts, but why do every single goddamn one of them constantly use the word "literally" in a dubious way? It grates on my pedantic soul like a hasp. It's one of those things that's spreading like overly using the word "like". Most of these podcasts are coming out of California or other parts of the west coast right? I hear it a lot where I am so I'm not singling it out. I'm just suggesting it may have started there.

Their songs can be kind of funny, but I only tolerate SOME comedy songs. I agree for the most part on that opinion.

I thought Swardson was pretty funny on DLM. He's a drunk so he's going to be somewhat unreliable. You're right though, he was better on WTF.

Wise Old Shitashi posted:Awesome. You are awesome.  Scott Thompson is on the newest NNF. Great episode that gets better in the Primo. Edit: Majorian posted:So I'm about a month late on replying to this, but yes, KPCS is an amazingly funny and interesting show. I've been onboard for about a year now, and it's easily my favorite podcast or internet series. He has lots of interesting folks on who I've never even heard of, or know very little about, and I usually end up fans of them after an hour and a half or so. It has been a while, huh? I am deep into the KPCS now and it truly is one of the best. I do like Jamie but I don't think she overshadows Sam all that much. As long as she's being funny and or interesting, its doesn't matter much to me. If you want a really interesting episode, there's one with Rob Leggato. There's still funny in there, but it really goes in depth into the guy's career. That blew my mind because before I gave up on my idea on being in the special effects biz, I looked up to Leggato and liked what he'd done for the special effects industry mostly because of interesting simple ways to do some thing. Give it a listen, it's a good time. I can't believe I missed James Urbaniak on that huge episode list. Can't wait to check it out.

There's an audio version of Kevin Pollak's Chat Show. He even says it gets more Downloads than the video one. Majorian posted:I have difficulty deciding which bit has been my favorite so far: Hank Azaria's "Poker Rabbi," or Kevin and Dave Coulier doing Albert Brooks and Bob Einstein/Super Dave. This hands down. I laughed like a dumbass at this because Coulier's Super Dave is loving spot on. Also, I'm pretty sure the back and forth was between Kevin and Dave.

You're right in saying that would you rather is much better than Judge Jimmy. I'm thinking Jimmy is in agreement with you too because they haven't done it or stupid question in a while. Though it may have been mostly in jest he says they just do it when the guest drags. Lately the guests have been great though. Excuse me, I'm two minutes into the Jon Hamm episode and it's already hilarious.

redz posted:I've been listening to season 3 of Never Not Funny and any time they make jokingly yell at Andrew Koenig I feel a little bad. I know it's really far away but I don't want to get to the episodes were he isn't there anymore I can't quite listen to those episodes anymore. It gets easier and the new ones are just as good. Elliot's camera work gets a little funky at times but he's a good shoe filler.

I believe they mentioned it being on THAT podcast, which I was hoping they wouldn't do. I play nerdy games but I can't stand D&D. I don't know if I would enjoy hearing even them playing it. I'm (for once) on Kevin's side of not wanting to participate.
