I'm afraid this week's i4h might get overlooked because of CBB and UTU2TM, but it's seriously insane. So good.

It has some amazing guests, but of course since Armen is there Besser has to dedicate the whole episode to that.

I wish they would leave that shit to the one on one style of Who Charted. They kind of waste the star power by bringing in Armen.

I thought it was amazing, personally. It's basically an extension of the Inside the Master Class videos if you've ever seen them.

I'm not sure you understood what was going on in that episode. They were portraying Matt as some overbearing, highly critical, Whiplash-like teacher of improv and insinuating every i4H is like that before it's edited. The best part was they were insulting Armen at every point. Even though he was in on it the complaints about him bringing up the fucking Simpsons were still spot on. Armen still sucks, it's lovely to hear everyone tell him that.

Great EP!

Some of the complaints about the shows seem kind of strange because they are antithesis to what improv is trying to do. The ones concerning Horatio Sanz for one. The shows he goes on end up being some of the most creative and hilarious. I think he's doing his job perfectly even if he doesn't know the age of his character or forgets what city they were born in.

I know it wasn't a serious thing, I just hate how everything has to be focused on Armen.

Anyone else notice someone breathing heavily into the mic on the new I4H? It's super loud and it bothers me more than it should.

Damn, I bought a LootCrate an hour before I heard the new HH.

UTU2TM live was awesome. Scott needing to ask the audience what podcasts they were coming out of was so great.

Still haven't fallen in love with WSGLL. That first 25 minutes of just James Adomian doing his Leykis setup alone was funnier than the other two segments with Lauren. The Help Me Rhonda segments don't hit with me, so it makes for a limp end each episode.

Yea the new i4h is basically a follow to the Who Charted episode. It's great when Besser sorta drops the act because Armen is actually fucking up. The whole sandals premise following the Crao on Youtube video was a prime example.

I've fallen off WSGLL, the only one I've liked was the pilot with pft.

I was in tears the entire spider-man talk during the latest CBB. Great episode all around but that part got me for some reason. I think it was PFT laughing when Gillian was called a pretty woman again.

This week's CBB will be near the top of the 2015 Best Ofs for sure. What a fucking awesome ep.

So many great moments. Gilly repeatedly calling the good reverend "Persimmons" repeatedly had me in stitches.

The wedding episode is definately an early contender for best of this year.


Also Adam Scott was on letterman last night talking about "U talkin' U2 to me"

Its referencing a character from Hollywood Handbook that just 'died' (choking on a turkey bone).

Oh. Just odd timing then. :lol

I haven't picked up much else from Earwolf other than CBB and HDTGM.

I'm listening to almost everything of Wolfpop though. Reading Aloud is quickly becoming one of my favorite podcasts.

Nicole Byer was a funny guest on HH. Loved the girl code angry yelling over the music. Also, I love when Sean tells a guest he doesn't own a tv and asks if that's interesting to them.

In that case allow me to recommend Hollywood Handbook and The Cracked Podcast. And I'm sure you're aware of it already since you're listening to all of Wolfpop but I Was There Too is really entertaining.

another update from me slowly, slowly catching up on HH: Sean having an in-depth knowledge of the For Better Or For Worse lore is fucking hysterical

There's an Earwolf OT here!? Amazing.

Yesterday, I literally lost a hammer chisel bit at work listening to J. Adomian doing Slavoj Žižek, a burst of laugh made me pull the power hammer sds, and the chisel went right inside a septic tank. Good times.

Is Reality Show Show worth going back and listening to? I'm quickly running out of HH handbook episodes that I can listen to back to back!

Which episode is this? That sounds amazing.

Johnny Pemberton ep in the pre-interview segment. Sean and Hayes talk about how they're adapting newspaper comics (including FBOFW and Foxtrot [where the "apparently kid" will feature prominently]) and hoping to turn it into a cinematic universe. Which was all funny on its own but Sean directly quotes FBOFW (correctly remembering the dog's name is Farley
and that there's an arc where Farley dies in a river saving one of the kids
and that lizzie calls macaroni "macamoni"). so I don't know if he's also just a nerd who gre up reading newspaper comics before school or if he looked it up beforehand but I found it amazing either way

As someone who also grew up reading newspaper comics and is sadly very familiar with the FBOFW mythos, I am downloading that episode as we speak. Hopefully there is a Funky Winkerbean references in there.

It could be pretty funny, though HH is definitely more fleshed out. Also RSS has a lot more awkwardness with the guests since they are usually random reality stars who don't know what's going on, lol.

That is a fucking bummer.

Firing up twitter was eerily similar to the few times I've found out a friend died through facebook. "Hey! Everyone is talking about so-and-so" followed immediately by "Aw fuck"

The fact that we can hear him from joking about his drug use, to saying he actually has a problem, to admitting he recently started heroin but is now clean all on different podcasts is really fucking sad and surreal right now.
