Flamazot posted:I listened to the most recent episode today and it was ok, but am I the only one that's never really liked "What Am I Thinking?" It's a fun game to play but I don't enjoy listening to it. Yea, I kind of tuned out during the last half of this episode. The games usually keep me entertained but I just wasn't feeling it today.

I really enjoyed this week. Not sure why everyone is so down on it, guess I just don't have problems with dick jokes.

Andy Daly has another spectacular performance as usual, I love that every character he plays either attempts suicide or summons the devil... or usually both.

When they start putting him on the spot to make up limericks he just sounds so loving defeated as he says "right, because I spent so much time perfecting it". So loving funny.

I really liked it, I didn't even consider that other people would find it annoying or whatever. I also liked that episode of DLM with Sleeper Agent, bought the album on itunes after hearing it on his show.

Ograbme posted:Jessica St. Clair tries her hardest to make me hate her and fails spectacularly every time. Everything about her shtick makes me feel like I should hate her but she does it so well, I just crack up. Recently some people were complaining about the quality of CBB episodes since Jeff got involved. Two shows back to back that had me doubling over with laughter really proves they haven't dipped in quality. Of course not every show is this funny but the show really is still super consistent and funny as ever.

Worst Case Ontario posted:I love Todd Glass's story in episode 116 about the guy saying "When I go to Queens I have a GOOD time!" His delivery of it every single time he says it kills me. I always say "When I go to queens I have a GOOD time!" when I'm just driving around in my car, it's fun to say. bobservo posted:Besser is a loving legend, and his own podcast is on par with CBB and even better some weeks -- though each show has its own distinct vibe. Anyone who reads this thread and doesn't listen to improv4humans should start immediately. Besser definitely makes it work, though a lot of times the guests are pretty lovely so you only get one or two good improvs in a show. Either way watch Freak Dance, it's ridiculous.

Politicalrancor posted:Thats a really good list. I love all of those eps. I didn't necessarily know I loved "New No No's" until I realized I was saying "New No No, Dad's the son now" a million times. Paul Rust is fantastic. This is one of my favorite episodes, Paul Rust is loving hilarious. Just reading what you wrote made me literally laugh out loud thinking about it. As for PFT, I can agree that Scott pairs him with guests somewhat as a crutch. However, that doesn't make him any less enjoyable for me. Needless to say I thought this weeks episode was exceedingly good. It's kind of surprising how consistent and funny this show has been over the years. I'm going to be sad when they end the show... or it runs out of steam. I wonder if the medium makes it easier to keep going since production is quick and they can bank episodes if they want to take time off.

weinus posted:I thought it was pretty awful Just sounds like 3 unfunny nerds in a room together all trying to one-up each other. I think they were too anxious to be guests or something. Then they start trying to do 'characters' and Scott tries to get them to end it quick and they just...keep...going. That's not how I heard it. They went to break and came back in character, he was joking about not wanting to hear about who they are or what they came for. I really liked this episode.

Organic Robot posted:I just found out that Tom Leykis is a real person. The best part about Leykis on CBB is that the best lines are just quotes from the real Leykis. He's so close to the real Leykis, especially the condescending "dear" (I only know this because while carpooling to work my coworker used to listen to his show). One of my all time favorite eps was with Tom and Amy Poehler.

NotWearingPants posted:Strange. That's when I started enjoying it. I've heard the Todd Glass' angry uncomfortableness with his own homosexuality spiel plenty of times by now, and I sympathize with him, but he really needs to get over it. Most heterosexual men are not as freaked out by homosexuality as he seems to be. He's a pretty anxious guy in general I think, of course coming out is a big deal to him. I am pretty tired of hearing about it but I just kind of tune out those parts of the show. I really enjoyed the Bush stuff, sad they never got to WYR.

I really enjoyed it, both Jimmy and Scott trying to figure out the game the whole time, trying to lead the interview somewhere and Paul just kept cutting it off. I suppose that's what "anti-humor" is?

ManoliIsFat posted:As a developer, I'm always interested in the mechanics of this. I know an akamai's of the world would cost a pretty penny. S3 seems a pretty good fit. IDK how itunes works, is it just a registry and points to wherever the mp3s are hosted, or does apple host anything themselves? Any earwolf insiders have an idea? (i guess i could just snoop the traffic the howl app creates, see how they do it" It's not a technical problem really, there are a million ways they could serve the content (in this case it looks like they are using soundcloud to serve the audio mp3s and NetDNA/MaxCDN for other content like the episode image preview). It costs money to host content, it's rarely free, especially with the amount of traffic earwolf probably pushes. I think it's purely a way for them to monetize their old content, as it stands they earn basically nothing for old episodes. They tried to splice in new commercials into the old content, I'm sure that didn't pan out how they thought, so now they're trying to charge for archive access. I think they've got a good idea with the exclusive produced content, more Mike detective and mini-series are justifiable that way.
