oooh, a Donna Brazile episode! sick. nice Rand Paul cold open
― flappy bird, Friday, 10 November 2017 02:10 (six years ago) link
i lost some faith after a really bad run a few weeks back but the donna brazile one and the newest one have been straight fire, two of their best imo. the brazile book really benefits from a deep reading that plunges you into the rabbit hole of insanity and the new one is just nice and freewheeling with a really high joke hit rate.
― oiocha, Tuesday, 14 November 2017 01:30 (six years ago) link
yeah that was one of their best ever
― Simon H., Tuesday, 14 November 2017 02:03 (six years ago) link
matt has been so annoying ever since he moved to nyc. just generally louder, dumber, more reductive, almost self parody. i like the new live show though, but fuck man, you don't need to scream everything

That one was good. It's really this kind of thing where they're at their best, where they read/watch something that you would be kind of curious about but wouldn't actually think to read/watch and then do a deep dive on it in a way that no one else would. I can do without the sort of political funnies of the week stuff, just really not much need for another voice in that area. They're not amazing as pure comics.

is the recent live show any good? as they kind of suck usually and i don't want to waste my damn time on substandard content!
― -_- (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 21 November 2017 21:52 (six years ago) link
The first half is garbage, the second half (employer videos) has moments, but since you can't see the videos a lot of it is lost.

gotta love that they specifically joke about the video humor only working live and then release it as a podcast anyway.

If I had a penny for every time this happens on a podcast (and most examples aren't live, either).
Though to be fair video podcasts are an even worse situation.

Is the Saudi episode good? I started it and maybe just wasn't in the right mood for it, but it just kind of felt like when you're in a group social gathering and two people decide to have a long side conversation about something only they understand.
― IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Wednesday, 22 November 2017 15:10 (six years ago) link
i think it depends on how deep your knowledge of saudi is already - mine is puddle-deep and tbh i was lost most of the time altho i thought it was really interesting it’s always jarring to me when felix’s dumb-as-a-rock facade drops and he reveals he actually knows stuff

It's an idiosyncrasy possibly, but I really like podcast vibes where the hosts seem to genuinely enjoy each other's company. And my two greatest pleasure from this show is when one of Felix's dumb obscure jokes makes Matt snicker and the sound of Amber's laugh. Reminds me of what I enjoyed about the Howard/Robin relationship when I first heard Stern.
