Dan called up a weird girl who described herself as being bullied for being "absolutely beautiful" who then recommended to Dan that he should treat waitstaff like absolute poo poo and threaten their jobs. Then she said that all relationships have a "male" dominant and "female" passive member, then she got excellently skewered by a queer woman in the audience for being ignorant as poo poo and a bit homophobic, to which she responded essentially "well it's my opinion and you don't have a right to insult me for it" and then got booed at for being really lovely about her shirt opinions, to which the audience started chanting "let it go" as she wouldn't stop loving talking about how she was right and everyone else was wrong and also mean for saying her opinions were poo poo.

Then the next week dan spent the entire episode saying how the audience acted inappropriately and insulted her while literally arguing the "you're intolerant if you don't tolerate intolerance" line mra idiots trot out. Then he kept on going on about how the audience were bullies. Then he called the girl up who basically whined about how she was treated so mean while still refusing to acknowledge she was in the wrong.

But hey apparently it's fine for some no name to accuse some dude of making up a girlfriend for no adequately explained reason and the audience to then insult him over it! Yeah.

That was so bizzare. She was wearing a fedora as well.

Erin is almost always in the position of having to play catch up (let's address the show's core point...let's address whatever Dan said about our relationship...and let's not take too long so we can get D&D in).
Nah, she doesn't need to catchup on anything. That might make things better.

This my friends is a dumb idea. I set out to follow through on one of my joke what ifs, and the rambling wtf I have laid before you is the result. From the get go I couldn't decide if this idea was best served in the literally or visual medium, which is why I couldn't decide whether I should write setting things with camera angles or if I should turn everything into prose. The concept was to utilize various Harmontown tidbits and gags like hate for voiceover, Jeff being psychic and Levi to tell a story that always ended as anticlimacticly as possible. I also wanted to use the podcast audience surrogate as a means of making fun of Dan's liberal 70s antiracism but calling the protagonist "Blackman" was too on the nose. I settled for Czarney which, according to Google, is Polish for black. Edit: You know what? No. In a way this satire is supposed to be bad gently caress it, Blackman's his last name. I'll send you my minority ID if they're complaints. I honestly got bored of this, but I needed to finish something I started for once. I hope Goldberg doesn't find this creepy; my plan for the aborted sequel was for him to get ditched as soon as he outlived his usefulness. Now I'm off to read a book to learn how not to suck.

I... I don't get how this is applicable. It's like you are in a public place yelling your rants.

You posted it because it was so weird? Either way, it was bordering on too weird and you should lay off. Harmon and harmontown is right on that line of being a bad internet poster but with enough self awareness to pull it back right before it's weird.

I haven't listened to what you're talking about, but it is likely related to the crazy 'stoned-ape' theory of evolution. Duncan and Rogan love to talk about that.
I think its about the fungus that takes over ants and causes them to climb high in trees to jizz spores below.

I actually haven't listened to that one yet, so thank you for saving me ten minutes. They really need to get a crossover with Nerd Poker going, so Posehn can occasionally bellow "SHUT THE gently caress UP AND PLAY THE GAME, NERDS!" at them.
That's the opposite of what I want to happen. I want 30 minutes of funny rambling.



Adam, your brothers are dicks. Get famous and don't bail them out. Alternatively, edit yourself a bit better so only the good poo poo gets out there. (I'm listening to 30 HarmonCountry SommerVille).

Its more an issue of a wealthy individual three steps removed from the problems of the lower classes preaching anarchy as if anarchy has benefited anyone ever. The riots have shut down businesses, schools and services--vital things for the people living in Ferguson. And here we have some loving loudmouth bemoaning his inability to afford a Tesla telling people to keep it up. Dan is 100% in the wrong about this and hearing him preach anarchy to people who just want to live their lives makes my blood boil.

TBH everything about that political discussion was incredibly stupid. It's hard to tell what's worst between Harmon's bright idea that people should just lie about what's happening or Jim's stunning revelation that voting doesn't matter and dissent is illegal. They sounded like angry teenagers.

A self diagnosed man baby rambles on about gender and race, gets drunk, steps over some lines but is aware enough to step back from that line and is charming enough so that you don't hate on him after all that.

He spent 40 minutes talking to a trans person. If he made one mistake about a pronoun who cares. They spent the first 15 minutes discussing gender pronouns and how you should approach asking people about them.


I think these people are their own worst enemy. Sometimes you just need to relax if someone who doesn't spend their life thinking about this stuff makes a small error.
That sounds like the opposite of what that tweet was saying. I can't imagine dan not going "oh my bad, im a large child so sorry I got that wrong, I'll get it right going forward, what should I refer to you as again?"

This is an excellent point. Truly the student has become the douchebag.

This is the frustrating thing. Harmon isn't just a blowhard. He's the first guy on stage to feel badly if someone from the audience is being made to feel mocked. He's the kid that got picked on mercilessly that had to grow a thick skin over his gooey emotional inside bits. Coming on stage and being outraged alone isn't being Dan Harmon. That's Dino. Coming on stage and baring what you feel is Dan Harmon. Even if he's a total baby about it sometimes. That's why guys like Kumail and Jeff are the perfect balancing act to him.
Agreed. Jeff is the best because he is like Bateman from American Psycho to balance out Dan's touchy feely-ness.

And Dan's touchy-feely-ness is a very certain brand. It's not just complaining, its complaining with style.
