Honestly one of the reasons that I4H is so good to me is that, no matter who the players are, everyone's still beholden to the whims of Matt Besser. The Tim Tebow episode is one of my favorites because every minute of it is just tinted with one man's hilarious rage, and if the show were structured just straight scene-to-scene without his poo poo, it wouldn't be nearly as fun or unpredictable as it is now. I love that he'll occasionally walk in with a horrific story like that, or decide to just up and dominate an episode with debates about gay athletes and almost no improv. It's kind of a delight that he never holds back—even when it doesn't work, it's always interesting.

Yeah, Besser is an interesting guy. I kind of like how it is half talk-back radio rants and half long-form improv. His personality is definitely part of the show's appeal, even when he isn't being funny.

It's a really good show. Tom being a giant music nerd really changes the dynamic. It isn't just Scott goofing on Harris for being crazy into a silly band, as Tom gets to the heart as to why the songs are bad. His music criticism actually creates a good discussion. His bit about four different stages was astute and hilarious.

I heard a few episodes of Topics, and I liked it because it felt like I was in a really ill-informed sociology class at a liberal arts school. I think every episode plays with this idea, so as a series of podcasts it might be one note, but it's worth listening to every now and again.

Also, I have a weird crush on every member from The State.

I think it's a cool way to do limited series, which is hard to get ad support for, but otherwise the Howl app is very pretty but undercooked and needs some work.

To be honest, the subscription doesn't bother me. They have busted their rear end off for years for nothing, and if they need another way to keep the ship going that's fine. I also like having a big list of earwolf and wolf pop stuff to browse through. It's easier than doing it in Downcast.

Thanks to Howl I finally checked out I was there too and it's so great.

The Wild Horses one is super amazing too.

I was going to make a crack when the show was first starting like "Wonder how long it'll be before this podcast starts going months between episodes..." and unfortunately that time is drawing near, but it maintained consistent updates much longer than I'd expected.

Is there confirmation of this? I usually skip the house cleaning stuff.
