Improv4Humans was excellent today. The music was just so much less lame then that Ben Lee episode. And the cast was just unstoppable.

Is every episode like this? You really should start from the beginning, like 75% of the show is running jokes.

moot the hopple posted:I'm watching season 1 currently, and it's pretty good. The weakest part is definitely the whole underground anarchist secret society conceit, but I've enjoyed many of the actual bits. Lol it was the 90s. The idea of "culture jamming" resonated much better. I think it's a great premise to tie together a bunch of disparate scenes of people acting like weirdos.

I'll give anything a chance that has more than one member of The State involved. Or even just one, really. I'm rarely if ever disappointed in the outcome. The only non-Earwolf podcasts I listen to are I Don't Even Own a Television (the latest episode with @Mobute on Bill O'Reilly is amazing) and Men In Blazers. I really tried to like My Brother, My Brother and Me because my wife loves it, but it just feels so un-professional to me: it just sounds like some guys riffing in a basement.

Mordecai Sanchez posted:Crazy how Jerry Minor was almost the third co-founder of Earwolf AND was going to be the only one putting in money to start it. I imagine him running it like his character in Delocated. I really liked hearing Jeff and Scott as bosses. That idea of having professional standards, and "this shouldn't rise up to me" is so true. And how it really is interesting to be that one stop shop for podcasts, where comedians can just come and have this venue, utilize those resources. And Jeff really sounded quite anxious about the future, as much as he tried to be excited about the prospect. I can't imagine how scary that'd be, not being there every day, not tending to your baby. It was a great episodes and I'm appreciative to have heard it.

Someone in the biz, how much would I would've been paid for a speaking roll on CBB (and it seems I would've had to join SAG)?
