Feb 21, 2021 edit: take a peak Jim Belushi on SNL, His Movie Career, and Being an Outsider (vulture.com) Post your favorite standup bits, clips, tiktoks, movie or show recommendations here. I'll start: binging the very dark, hilarious Search Party right now. think a cross between Eastbound & Down, Girls with a hint of Breaking Bad. @Worm your thoughts? Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar is honestly worth the $20 or whatever to stream. Very silly, like to a throwback to 90s Mike Myers or Will Ferrell kinda + has a ton of heart as always check my recaps: Saturday Night Live season 46, episode 13 recap: Regé-Jean Page hosts with musical guest Bad Bunny | EW.com this one shouts out SXN80 specifically finally who listens to Bill Bert: Whatcha watchin'
Feb 21, 2021 A couple podcasts I'll plug: Yeah, But Still (also on Soundcloud) Hosted by standup comedian Brandon Wardell and video director Jack Wagner, it's kind of a shooting the s--- type comedy podcast but they're usually pretty prepared with stuff to talk about and cover a wide variety of topics. They also have a huge range of guests—Tim Heidecker, Thundercat, Vampire Weekend, Bill Oakley (golden-age Simpsons writer), Mark McGrath from Sugar Ray, Jamie-Lynn Sigler & Rob Iler (AJ & Meadow from The Sopranos), Chromeo, Tom Green, etc. etc. etc. The Renner Files A comedic, mock true crime podcast about the rise and fall of the Jeremy Renner app. Also, what All Gas No Breaks is doing is amazing
Feb 21, 2021 is that a good show? I think I remember hearing about it a few years ago. This is probably my favorite stand up moment ever
Feb 21, 2021 Can you or @Captain Awesome AKA Papa recommend me a good Bill Burr special? I tried watching one a couple years back and stoped watching after 20 min cuz thought it was terrible, but I've seen funny clips of him online before.
Feb 21, 2021 I would say "I'm Sorry You Feel This Way" is his absolute best. I love all of his standups though although the newer one's aren't as sharp as his first few which is how it goes for all comedians and artists. But I would start there if you don't want to go chronologically.
Feb 21, 2021 Saw the recent Comedy Central documentary about Patrice. Really took me back to when I first heard of him on Tough Crowd and that half hour special he did for Comedy Central. I even attended a taping of Tough Crowd once but unfortunately Patrice wasn’t part of the panel (Jim Norton and Keith Robinson were).
Feb 21, 2021 Patrice died and everyone connected with O and A became the biggest losers of all time... especially Ant. Patrice's only bad take I could remember was when he said Kim Kardashian was going nowhere and white people would shun her and make her a pariah because she made a sex tape with Ray J (cause he is black).
Feb 22, 2021 Since 2016 I've counted on only 2 podcasts that I have personal connections to to make me laugh. It's been the Great Depression of American comedy since then. When I was a baby Johnny Carson was the gatekeeper that stood between a standup and national exposure and fame and fortune... and he knew what was funny and what was bs hackery. Then David Letterman became the gatekeeper and he had an even better sense of comedy and he elevated the best of the best. Now for some f---ing reason Joe Rogan is the gatekeeper and he has no idea what is funny and he is promoting cringe... because of Joe Rogan there are lethally unfunny stand ups who should be nothing more than open mic-ers getting Netflix specials and boring a--- podcasts that top the charts with no merit... I see people wearing Brendan Schaub t-shirts... and it makes me want to cry for America. @Worm
Feb 22, 2021 Joe Rogan always s----d a--- as a comedian, the most memorable thing he did in that entire scene is s--- on Mencia. Makes Chad sick when he tries to do a deep dive into the "craft" of comedy, guy crawls up a stool and repeats 2014 era SJW cringe comp anti-PC s--- that hasn't hit in years
