Hardwick, Izzard, Friedlander, Carr, Minchin On “The Green Room With Paul Provenza” Thursday
by Perry Michael Simon on August 31, 2011
Got Showtime? If you do, you will want to be watching Thursday night, September 1st, at 11 pm Eastern (or, on the West feed, Pacific, too). That’s when the latest episode of The Green Room with Paul Provenza will air, and here’s your guest list:
- Chris Hardwick.
Okay, you’re already sold, but there’s more:
- Eddie Izzard.
- Judah Friedlander.
- Jimmy Carr.
- Tim Minchin.
If you like the idea of a bunch of the best comedians around sitting around riffing uncensored, AND WHY WOULD YOU NOT?, you’re going to want to see this. So see it.
HT: TimMinchin.com, @larryholdaway, Mr. Hardwick


Fuck Chris Hardwick. That guy’s a little pussy bitch.
Only Bo Burnham could make this better. (I’ve been on a Burnham hook lately… he did the Green Room once with Comedy veterans such as Ramano, Maron, and Gary Shandling… it was awesome.)
Quick! Nobody feed it!
I will definitely be watching this. I didn’t even know this show existed… what is it?
The only problem with that is the show doesn’t run for 3 hours
Can Nerdist pleeeease make Tim Minchin break in the US? Or, at least, get him on the podcast?
Unfortunately, Showtime has no Canadian counterpart at the moment (not that I get anyways).
O to the M to the G….
Master Hardwick, sir, are there going to be any clips of this on this site? You and Eddie Izzard in the same clip will make my head explode in good ways.
A podcast with any of the remaining three here would be great. /notsosubtlehint
Minchin fans, there’s probably a way you can get hold of BBC’s Comedy Prom. Tim Minchin absolutely kills in it.
So I will assume that Eddie Izzard will be on the Podcast soon?
kthnksbai!
I happened to catch this last season, and I’m sooooo glad they brought it back! Can’t wait!
My head may explode.
Please have Eddie in the podcast! PLEASE!! PLEEEEASE!!! D’:
Seriously, this was way too short.
hilarious show man. i hadn’t watched it before but I will check out anything you are in and it is now in my dvr recording que! You Rock dude!
Who was that headpalming Big C at the end? Jimmy Carr?
And it’s definitely not true that you can’t dissect comedy. Talking shop about whatever you love is one of the great human pleasures. Up there/combined with fish tales…
BRAIN CUM!
this was great. Couldnt watch it officially, but the opportunity arose. More please. Chris, get your arse over to the UK and get on QI, Would I Lie to you , Have I Got News For You or The News Quiz on the radio ANY of thos celebrity panel shows…Excpet for Celebrity juice. thats shite
Tim Minchin needs to be more popular in the US. He is brilliant. I cannot say enough great things about him.
His music makes me feel good. It would be very cool to get him on Nerdist.
