Seriously amazing. Great podcast. What definitely put it over the top was you saying “I heart you” at the end. Nice loving touch.

I <3 you too.

Really like the podcast. My only criticism is that sometimes there are too many voiced. Ditch Matt and\or Jonah. They chime in too much. One in particular (not sure which) likes to sidetrack and name drop.

Chris is a great host, and Jonat should be his “Paul Shaffer” or “Andy Richter”. In fact.. how about having Matt go off to start a band, and Jonah to go star in a bad sitcom?!

Between heffay and me, Paul Shaffer has gotten more press here since the Blue Brothers.

Guys, just listened to this one and thought you should know that Paul Shaffer was the first person to ever say “f*ck” on SNL. It slipped out during the “Four Floggin’ Beats” sketch. You’re comedy nerds and should know this.

loving the podcast! I am in London and nearly pee’d myself with everyone’s comments about the comedy style around here! I’ll be keeping an eye out for anyone’s UK appearances!

I have never watched Mad Men, but I have heard Jon Hamm on several podcasts, including this one and the Comedy Death Ray Radio Podcast and have been thoroughly impressed with him every time I’ve listened. I thought he was very funny on 30 Rock and now I am a die hard fan because he showed that deep down, somewhere underneath that award winning actor facade there’s a nerd who can off the top of his head quote Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy. Thank you Jon Hamm for being awesome.
Great interview Chris, really loving the podcast. However, it’s just some guys talking, can’t there be something really exciting, like a sword fight or a boat chase? Or possibly a sword chase that leads to a boat fight? Come on! Everyone has podcasts with people talking to Golden Globe award winning actors, no one has a podcast where someone is eaten by a crocodile in the middle, requiring the rest of the podcasters to be shrunk down to miniature size to rescue him from the belly of the beast! There’s probably a reason for that.

Kudos, Chris— you have truly earned your nerd stripes, because your mom is posting embarrassing comments on your blog.

I was teasing too Chris! I love the podcast. I will gladly suffer the mic issues. I intended no offense. I think the misplaced snark arose from a safety concern over Jon Hamm’s decision to record the show from the bottom of that abandoned mine shaft. I hope you were able to remove him safely. Also, I miss the pilot episode theme song, please bring it back!

Hi. My name is Steve. I’m consuming absolutely free entertainment but contemporary cultural norms dictate that I complain about it anyway. I could try to understand that you guys are learning as you go along, but it’s much more satisfying to be snarky.

Guys, sorry about the mic problem. We’re experimenting with different recording equipment and software. We’ll get it right, just be patient with us!

Thanks!

PS – Steve, I was just teasing.
