Who Are These Podcasts? - Ep85 - Dr. Gameshow

Episode Date: December 3, 2017

One of the best segments of any morning radio show is when the hosts play games with callers. So it makes sense to have a podcast with only games. How could you possibly fuck that up? Well, here's how. You play games that are sent in by listeners that make zero sense and lead to awkward improv exercises. Also, you have a low-energy dolt make up theme songs for each game.  Andy joins the show to help us understand that despite the terrible execution of this podcast, it wasn't the worst thing we've ever heard. It was actually almost good. I'm still not sure how that makes sense.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's show time. Just a handful that don't suck That's where we come in My destiny is like a global commander and the goats W-A-T-P W-A-T-P Who are these partners? W-A-T-P Who likes these partners? Not W-A-G-E

Who likes these partners? That one's beyond me Who are these partners? W-A-T-P! W-A-T-P! W-A-T-P! How are you? Hello!

W-A-T-P! W-A-T-P! In the morning, hello and welcome to another episode of Who Are These Podcasts. A show where we talk about politics nonstop. I'm your host, Carl, with me as always as Andy. One-up big slappers. I let you remind our listeners you can visit us at whoarethese.com, our Facebook page, or on Twitter who are these pod? Email the show watpshow at gmail.com. We're always looking for new podcast suggestions.

Also, if you like what you hear don't forget to give us a positive five-star review on iTunes. I wish this was on video so I really could see how I was staring intently. You put a minute and a half theme song. I know. Oh, you avoid making eye contact. It's all awkward. Today we'll be reviewing a podcast called Dr.

Game Show. This is a listener suggestion from Karen. Andy and I both listen to the show separately. We have not discussed it with each other beforehand. Let's get into it. Andy, Dr. Game Show on Earwolf hosts our Joe Firestone and Manolo Moreno. I have to say out of the gate that this show has a format, which is a good thing. Which is a good thing. Out of all the podcasts we've done, we demand a format. So I'm just gonna play a quick clip. This is them explaining what the show is. We play games submitted by listeners regardless of

their quality. There are anybody. It's a democracy. Anybody that submits will play it. I think that's what a democracy is. So you're gonna find this hard to believe but it doesn't take that much to impress me. Yeah. This is in the top 10% of podcasts that I've listened to. Just based on the fact that there's a format and a purpose for the show to exist. It's funny, Carl, because I was gonna say, we've done a few podcasts that get together now, you and I. Correct. And we've listened to every episode of the show.

Yeah. And I've never said this before. I did not hate this podcast. Yeah, okay. So we're on the same page. Oh, this will be fun. It could be a weird, oh, we agree. It's great. Yeah.

Yeah. It's a party in the most expensive. Well, so there's a lot of things wrong with that. No, 100%. There's a lot of, just because I didn't think it was horrible. Does not mean that I'm not going to pull out a flame thrower and set this on fire. So let's get to that.

Let's get to that. This is a podcast. We listened to the very first episode and it has a couple of guests on there, Anna Dresin, who's a writer on SNL. Oh, she was probably my least favorite part. And Chris Getherd, who is a podcast whore? Yeah, he's all over the place.

What the fuck? He's all over the place. He's cool though. Let me just play you a real quick clip from Anna. This tells you everything you need to know about Anna Dresden. Her name is Lady Bird. Let me set it up before I start playing it. She brings her dog in with her to the show.

Correct. And she says, can you describe your dog? And this is how she describes the dog. Her name is Lady Bird. She looks like an albino bat wearing a nice chocolate mask and big nipple. Oh. Because she had a lot of puppies in the woods.

And she had a lot of puppies in the woods. She gave birth in the woods. And she took care of those baby dogs with her called puppies in the woods. That was really good. Thank you. Alright. She is hateable and unfoddy.

It is right from there. Right from there. They don't get the very beginning of the show. It's like, oh boy, this is going to see. There is. I was going to save this. Yeah. But there's a lot of bad singing on this show.

Oh, oh you think? And I had to take it to task. Okay. So I think that we should start with my clip three. It's gonna be a little redundant, but hang in there. Okay. Oh! She had a lot of puppies in the woods.

And she had a lot of puppies in the woods. I'm singing! I'm in a store. I'm singing. Oh. This is my rhyming ring. I'm in a store and I'm singing. Hey! This is animal after life. I'd rather have one instead of a wife See you almost make it seem fun the way that you put that together

This is not fun. It's just awkward. The co-host Manolo. Yes He sounds like the way that I feel when I'm losing it poker. He's very low energy. He sounds like he was born and raised at the DMV. Manolo has just one credit on the website. Yeah. Did you see this by the chance? Yeah.

It says, Manolo was once featured in Karate magazines, a list of five comedians I know personally. And I thought, I thought that's pretty funny. I figured that was a joke. No, I looked it up, but it's actually true. There's an article on Karate magazine.biz featuring this fucking Manolo. Oh god.

That's great. So let's talk about Manolo's role on the show because you have Joe Firestone, she's the host. Right. And she's not funny, she's got a stick to her, but there's something endearing about her. I can't tell what it is. Yeah, she's got that geeky charm.

Yeah, she has to act like she's not sure what's going on all the time. She's got to get that thing, stick going. Right. There is something endearing about her, but this window guy has zero redeeming qualities. Yeah. I don't know what his reason for being on the show is,

except for to sing a theme song for every game that they play. He's got like judges the contestants I feel like. Sure, but sure is that really games going on? No, no, no, this is a really good concept. Yeah, but an execution at the games I've heard. You right. And let's say, let play my track one, because this will sort of highlight to our listeners what the concept of the show is. Contestants take turns declaring a secret at an incrementally higher volume than each other. The first secret must be declared as quietly as possible whilst being audibly intelligible. The following secret must then be declared at a higher volume than the previous

secret and the secret must be of a higher secrecy level. Game ends when the secrecy level determined by Manolo has not matched the level of the previous secret or the secret is not declared as high level indescribable. Okay. That was the game that some listener came up with and said anything out of that play. Yeah. Can I play a clip that actually goes right with that? Yeah, please. Is that game in execution? So this is how that game starts off and then I have a comment about kind of the stickiness

of this whole show, but this is the very first secret that is shared. I had this news alarm today. No. No. No. I need to go immediate therapy. Now. I didn't realize what this was going to be. So the guy whispers, I hit the snooze alarm. And Anna's joke is I have to go immediately to therapy now. No't know. This is the problem with this show, is that these guys are all improv comedians. I was gonna comment. They taught, well, I think that's what we're gonna be talking

about most of the show. Because they've all met each other, and had different improv troops and ended these shows, and improv comedians are the fucking worst. But yeah, they think, and anything they say that's remotely wacky or off the wall is just immediately hilarious. Well, I have to go to therapy now. You hit the snooze all out this morning.

Thinking about outrageous. I just, I can't believe I just said that. I'm so hilarious. Yeah, they get into it a little at the, they show their hand. They were like, oh, we know each other from up rates to the US. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was just like, that is the high mark of pod.

I feel like that's where, like, you, you see, B, people who go to die as these podcasts. And just because you gave Matt Besser six grand and a hand job so that he could tell a friend of a friend that knows Lauren Michaels, that you're kind of funny. And maybe we'll get an audition on SNL. That, that doesn't mean that everybody that does in Prov comedy is worthy of having a podcast.

You know what I'm about that, right? Just their ending is that the volume of your voice didn't reflect how angry you were just now. You're like, you know, in these guys, they all think that they're gonna get on SNL. Like, okay, get fashion about a jerk. I thought I should get- I'm not really upset about this guy's, I'm just pretending to be for W-A-T-P-E. I don't

want to scream in everybody's ear buds. So let's play an example of this improv. Here is, I believe this is from the co-host Mino, in case there wasn't another reason to hate him He tells this terrible joke and a crack himself up. I bet if you played this episode along with Wizard of Oz all the fully worked would be in sync He couldn't wait to get that one out. He makes Stephen Wright look like Dane Cook to get that one out. He makes Stephen Wright look like Dane Cook. I don't know what that means. I think that means what you met it to me. No, but what's funny about that is this is not the dark side of the moon of podcasts. I could guarantee you that, sir. Real quick getting back to what you were talking about. The thing I liked about this format is that it's not so much

about the people on the show. It's about this premise of, we have these games, we're gonna play these games, they have collars calling, they play the games, and then at the end they have to go and fucking ruin it, just like you were talking about, talking about how they met each other. And Manolo and I met it, we met at an improv show. At the crazy game.

Manolo and I met, I think I subbed an improv class you were in. Who gives a shit, who gives a fuck? Well, why would I possibly care about these fucking idiots and how they met each other in New York? Oh, where are the fucking comedies here in New York? Are ya? Did ya? Did you?

I was trying to figure it out. The show sounds like you took a class about podcasting at Community College. The professor said everybody pair up, we're going to start a show. And the two people that were the most introverted and had the least personality that were left in the middle of the room are Joe and Manolo. And they came up with a good concept. And that's it.

It sounds like they're doing it because somebody said, you have to make a podcast. Does that class actually exist? I bet I can't see in that class. I didn't really do back. I could get a pretty easy scene. Yeah, you'll get points off for content though. Yeah, you think.

All right, so I want to get into real quick this Manolo guy and why he's so hateable. They, because this is all improv and it's all like these different improv, I don't know what you call it, they have to go through these different bits that they do. They decide that he's going to. Good job, Carol. Yeah, thanks.

You know, improv is really easy, Andy. What you think of words that you should be what you're trying to say. Fuck me. Alright, so he comes up with a song for every game that they're going to play. Joe will say what the game is and then she'll go, okay, go ahead and sing a song. So here are the songs that he came up with starting with Rming ring, which was the first game they played and here is his brilliant too. What was it? They had a burlose rhyming ring.

Hey, welcome to my rhyming ring. This is my rhyming ring. This is like the songs in its even king movie before someone gets killed. And the show has reached a new low. So the whole joke is so terrible. Right. I hate that. I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Right, I hate that and that Anna guest on this she it comes up that she's a writer on S&L Yeah, and that kind of humor that we just heard is why I said being an S&L It reminded me of that Drip on S&L Kyle Mooney who I don't know if you watch it. Yeah, but everything he does is like oh, it's bad So that means it's funny. No, you have to earn that. No, you can get to that point. Well, right, but you have to earn it first.

Do something funny. Right. And then when you do something bad, I'll be like, oh, but he's really, he's actually. It could be funny, right. But just everything he does is bad. Right. So you're just bad.

So here is an instrumental that this guy came up with for the show, was I Who Was Me Who, which is that secret game that we play the second ago. So he has a toy harmonica and apparently that's fun. And that's a joke. And that's a joke. And then here's a song for, is it Animal Afterlife? Was that the third game of the game? Oh, he's right.

Yeah. All right, so here's the sad singing. This is Animal Afterlife. I'd rather have one instead of a wife This is an animal after life Then I would be able to not have been straight I like that we both grab shut up clip. Yeah, yeah, of course we did. Fucking ridiculous.

That's just because you're improvving a song poorly and he's cracking himself up too, which is the worst type of improv possibly. Right, laughing through your own joke. Laughing through your own joke. Yeah. So Andy, I went ahead, because this was the very first episode.

And again, they came from a radio station. They were on Wfm u out of Jersey City they were kicked off you will pick them up shocker which is why they have an audience on their first show because there were people in the New York area who heard the shoot show the future I'm a podcast exactly yes so they they had their very first show which I think think because of the guests specifically was pretty bad. I went ahead and listened to the most recent show. And here are the songs.

Now this one had some different guests on it. And I should have probably written that down because it would have been a lot easier for me to figure out who those guests were. But one of them was the chick from Senate Live, who's no longer on Saturday night live, she's sheer. Oh, Samada. Is that I said it's that. I was that right? So she is a made that that's the one. I know who that is.

So so she's a made is a person who really enjoys singing. So on this show, it gets way more annoying because they all have to sing the songs together. Yeah, this, this gets pretty bad. So here's a song for the game Vatarep. Ah, this frog really knows how to get down. I know, we're really trying to do it. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, rib, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, ribbit, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib, rib So this is what they think passes as hilarious improv comedy. I'm just gonna play the other two real quick as they played three shows on that one as well

So here are the other two theme songs that this Monolo genius came up with this is for a game called Dr. Jim show You ready? Yeah, take it away Duh, dun, dun, show. Duh, dun, dun, dun, show. Duh, dun, dun, show. Duh, dun, dun, show. Duh, dun, dun, show. Duh, dun, dun, show. Duh, dun, show. Duh, dun, show.

Duh, dun, show. Duh, dun, show. Duh, dun, show. Duh, dun, show. Duh, dun, show. D the whole podcast, I hope. That's Medi-Al Wayne, who is singing in the background there. Do you know who that is? No. He's a gay comedian who decided to do this terrible, wise and mannally impression and does it throughout the entire episode. For no reason, the okay, real quick, here is a game called high school musical reunion. Here's the song. Attention everyone.

Mimi, Mimi, Mimi. High school musical. High school musical. High school musical today. Music Musical oh my god, that was a full minute I'm detecting a pattern with these themes. It's like I'm gonna play Nitsermin I don't know how to play and say the name of the game over and over again. And they were really proud of themselves. Never wanted to. Yeah, not once has it ever been funny. Yeah. It's not fun. It's not funny. Yeah. That game that the Dr. Jim show, can I tell you what the rules of that game were? The premise of it?

Okay. Okay. Okay, if you must. You go to Jim class and Manolo plays Coach Whistles, the Jim coach, and you have to explain to Coach Whistles why you don't have your Jim shoes in your bag. This is the problem. This is the problem. Because you could have good games.

Your crowdsourcing ideas from your audience, Yeah, this is the problem because you could have good game your crowd sourcing Ideas from your audience right which oh who are not talented people, but that's part of the shit This is sound familiar to you It's part of the stick though is that they say whether it's a good gamer bad game We're gonna play it. Yeah, and I think that people think, like, I'll come up with the worst game possible. I'll show them, but then it's okay. Great. It's a terrible game.

Because we listened to the first one, we both agreed at the beginning of the podcast, this is kind of a fun podcast. Yeah. There's some charm too. There's some charm. And I was like, I think I might actually like this podcast, I'm gonna listen to another one.

You do. So I listened to the one right after this to like episode two. Yeah, two comes after one magic tavern guys I don't know the guys either. I've heard of the podcast so they're on and they play a game called or where the the premise is it's Elton John turning into a werewolf. Okay. So the guys start singing tiny dancer. And then as he's singing it, he turns into werewolf and gets crazy. How was that a game?

Exactly. That's not a game. And they all agreed it was the best game of the episode. Oh, shit. I wish I had clips. So there's already been games. They're really, you know, it's exactly like they're in the improv show. And they're going, okay, so we throw on a location.

Somebody come up with a singer, and then we're going to do this bit. It was going to last. For people that failed out of improv class to keep doing improv, I feel like. Can you fail out of improv class? I don't know anyone is successfully graduated. And even the host doesn't really know or care about the games.

This is my trick to where we start realizing that Joe doesn't know what she's doing. Does it have to always incorporate dogs? No. Does it have to incorporate the first half of what was said? No. Does it have to have anything to do with the first one?

No. That will be that. Nobody knows what's happening on this show. Yes. That one right there is a game where they just have to come up with a rhyme. Right, and this is a drinking game that everybody played when they were in college. It's like, if you roll dice, you roll 11 whoever's on the left drinks. You roll 9 whoever's on the 9 or 7 to the left, 11 to the right, nine bust of rhyme.

And you just go around and you have to make it rhyme. I forgot about that. Manolo is making some beat with like that fart goo. Yeah. I don't know, I thought that was funny. Yeah, the fart goo, the wuffy goo. Yeah. There's no clips of it because it was good, but.

Okay. Yeah, they, one of the ongoing sticks they had in the show, or ongoing gags, I should say, is that the producer, this Alex person, handed the guests this, I don't know, slime or something, that they were playing with throughout the show and it was making fart noises. And of course, Joe was pretending to be upset about that. Here's just the description of what you just talked about, this rhyming game, which I found to not be a game.

It seems like way too easy. Here's how it goes. Manolo makes a beat, and the players play the game over the beat. The first player says one line, and then the next player in the circle says a line that rhymes with the first. But it can't be the same word. If you can't think of an original word that rhymes, you lose a point. So basically, you only get negative points in this game.

So the score will be like zero or negative two or whatever. No, hold on. So it's really just not a creative game. And then this is this boring game actually in action. A shape with four sizes called a square. I need to step outside for some fresh air. I bought a fruit was called a pear.

In the mornings, I brush my hair. Hey, what's that over there? Last name, Renaissance, first name fair. Sometimes take his medium rare. I don't care. That's fascinating. Please go on. So, I mean, what's the interesting part? That game, and it goes out and out of that. Oh, I know, yeah.

And Gethrad even makes the joke. He's like, I just want that to be the whole episode. It's just awesome. Because you can just see that forever. It's so fucking boring. I think my track five is the end of that. Okay. I wanted it to be over.

Yeah, exactly. Yeah, we all did. Thank you. In fact, my favorite part of this show was this right here. So the game ends. The game has ended. The game has ended. The game has ended. Okay.

All right. Yes, thank God. They're very self-aware. They're self-aware. Yeah. However, they're not aware enough to actually pick some games that might be interesting for people to listen to, which is disappointing.

Here's the description of the third game they play, which is this one called Animal Afterlife. Oh, yeah. Game play. An animal is randomly chosen from a list. Each contestant must then attempt to channel the spirit of the deceased animal and share with the audience that animal's message

to humanity. Best message to humanity wins. Great, got it. OK. Not really good at this. Not great. That's a terrible description for a game. Oh, you know what's even worse? What's that? Good. Picking up a phone call from some person who you don't know, who they are, if they're funny or not, whether they're a creep or not, and my track 8 is basically the caller faking an orgasm on the podcast. Okay.

Oh, come in, chocolate. No, what? Chocolate speaking to me. Oh, okay. Oh, chocolate says to brush your teeth before going about every night. You discussed me. You discussed me. You discussed everyone. Yeah, that was awkward.

Pretty sure that guy was jerking off. He was trying to be funny, but yeah, that was... That whole promise of that show, though, makes it very difficult to come up with anything witty. And why would you take phone calls? Right. I guess it's part of improv. I guess.

Yeah, it's audience participation. That's all the dice out. Yeah, it's could be audience. Whether or not it'll suck or it'll totally suck. It could be either one. We don't know. We don't know what to try it. This is actually a clip from an earlier caller.

And this is what I like to say is a good lesson for people who are taking calls on their show. How to be dynamic with a caller, make it interesting for every listener. You know, you want to bring the listener in and be like, oh, I want to get to know this person. This is how you do that. Good. Welcome back.

Thank you. What are you calling from in New York? Calling from Queens, New York. Deep Queens. Deep Queens. What's in Deep Queens? So I just farther out. What neighborhood would we talking?

Like past, flushing like out towards like Mary Hill. Why can't you just say where you're from? I'm Mary Hill. Mary Hill. Thank you. Holy shit. I had to do sex. You remember, I said that. Because I was like, who fucking cares? Why would anyone give a shit? And the funny thing is that they used to be a radio show that was like a New York based

radio show. Yeah. So maybe in New York, you're like, oh, which town are you and people would give a fuck? You're a podcast. Right. You wanted to narrow it down to what block he lives in. And he greens who gives a shit. Right.

When I got it, good. Over and out. Yeah, yeah. And the color was trying to let them off the hook. Right. You don't know. I was on the caller's side on that. I was like, I don't know, wherever.

What? 100%. He was just like, stop asking because you're not going to know your listeners aren't going to know. Oh, no one's going to fucking care. When I travel and people ask me where I'm from, I just, I don't even, I say I'm from upstate New York. Because if you say you're from New York,

everyone thinks you're an asshole because they think everybody that lives in the city is a mean douchebag. Which is true. And I don't say exactly where I'm from in the state because nobody knows where it is. I actually pull out Google Maps. Yeah, my phone's too small, so I grabbed my iPad Pro.

And I pull out Google Maps and I zoom in. Yeah. First I show them, I put your arm around the person. Yeah, I phone's too small, so I grabbed my iPad Pro and I put all Google Maps and I zoom in. Yeah, first I show them, put your arm around the person. Yeah, I'm like, what do you care? I'll show you. I'll show you. Check this out. And first, what I'll do is I'll be like, you know, 10,000 feet up, you know, so they can see like Ontario, they get the idea, get their bearings about them. And then I zoom right the fucking. I'm like, no, no, check this out. My roof is gray. Check this out. It's not very sunny where I live, but still I like to reflect. And they're always fascinated, right?

Oh, people love it. Oh, God. People love it with no point. So, what do you get real specific about those guys that's saying so pointless? Um, Andy, when Anna was talking about her dog, that clip we played, we started singing about her dog. There was a little piece in there that stood out to me.

I don't know if you caught this. Twearing a nice chocolate mask. Wait, is her dog in black face? Is that a racist dog, Andy? Yeah, I agree. Is this woman bringing a racist dog into the studio? Is it a German shepherd? That's fucked up.

A chocolate mask. I don't know what you're this is, but that's unacceptable. Not woke. I find that to be wildly unacceptable. I disagree with that dog. And that dog's political bent, whatever it might be. Yeah.

So Andy, we talked a lot about the fact that the games on this show aren't very good. If the games were better, it would be a fun show to listen to. I mentioned on the podcast last week when we were teasing this, one of my favorite parts about Howard Stern's show is when he gets a collar on, they play a game, they play the big-foot game, or they play the Beetlejuice game.

And the games are not rocket science. Yeah, it's fun. You know, maybe you get it right, maybe you get it wrong, you don't have to be smart to play it. So I developed a game for you to play. Oh, no Yeah, I'm very excited about it. Yes. All right. The rules are very simple. What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna name a band and You have to tell me which of their songs is my least favorite that they've ever recorded Okay, I'm just gonna throw the band name and if you could think that you know which song I fucking despise by this band

You will be the winner. Okay. All right. We're gonna start off easy. Right? Yeah, Jay guy I'll spanned I Only know one Jay Gals band song, so it has to be center full This song is fucking garbage. I'm in a song that has that chorus. Nah, nah, nah, nah. Who would that band was going? That's a pretty good chorus. Let's put that in our guitar. And by the way, they fucking sang freeze frame.

How could you say that to the only song you know by the guy? They're back in the album. Freeze frame fucking rules. We got centerful, which is a piece of garbage. All right, you're one for one. Okay. All right. What's the next the next band and if you must know is the Beatles? You have a least oh, I have a song that I despise. I know I know this answer just from us being friends. It's hey, Jude.

["Fake No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, These songs hate the Nana Nana Yeah, it's a fucking pop-up It's Garbage Nana Nana That fucking song goes out for 24 and a half minutes Just doing that chorus And Andy, I couldn't even find the original version of it I'm lying because the Googles keep that shit locked down The Googles

The Googles do? Fucking Googles The Beetles cover band, the Googles The Googles would The Googles do? Fucking Googles. Beetles cover band. The Googles. The Googles would be an interesting band. They could play any song you you asked for. They know it. The beetles keep that locked down, so I found a video of them doing it,

Suda Live to promote their album back in the late 60s. There are 89 million views of this fucking video of them singing, hey Jude. This is their most pot that was their biggest selling song of all time. It is? And the worst fucking song they ever came out with. That's shocking.

Paul McCartney should be fucking shot for that. All right, now we're going to get a little bit tougher Andy. How about Thin Lizzy? My least ever song to the point where it makes my top 10 list of worst songs ever. Really? Yes. Wow. I gotta be honest, I'm not really familiar with thin Lizzie.

Oh, you don't know this fucking title. I've got this song right here. I Are they Are they back in town that fucking tune is so cheesy and stupid like oh the guys are back. Well, it's fucking awesome No, it's not as a fucking losers. This song is a waste of guitar harmonies Typically if you put a guitar harmony in a song, I'm in all right at the chorus I know her but that course is so fucking bad. Yeah, it ruins everything else All right, I'm gonna get you right again. I'm gonna make it easy for you. Okay. What is my least here? We're song by a band known as seven Mary three God

Come for These Do ever do like to black as you want Lot of words now with my name Please thank you for that That fucking part right there Like a third graders poem Yeah Would be better thought out than that

Too wrong or too right, too black or too white Riving things Really? Holy shit dude You know why no one's ever used that in a song before Cause they're better than that Fucking idiot We can shit on overplayed music all day Carl. I'm going

You're doing pretty well you only missed Look kid up before you even play this can I guess that it's you shook me all night long by AC That would if I said AC DC that would have been the one. I was actually playing I P Malcolm I was actually playing. I'm a P-mailing him. I was actually playing ACDZ pinball yesterday. Do you know there's a new pinball place? In East Rochester called Silver Ball Saloon. No. It just opened a couple of days ago.

And I recommend it. All the pinball machines actually work. Holy shit. Yeah, go figure. I'm in. All right, so the last band I have for you here, and let's see if you can get this one. This is not gonna be an easy one. Starship. Hmm. We built this city. What? We built this city. I

Yeah, I just didn't know that this was tireship. It's a terrible song. This is one of the worst Manic in two What's it? It was in 80s everything everything's got to go. If the world runs out of lovers, we'll still have each other. Damn, come on, man. Fucking write something else. You got time. You got to do it, time. I can't believe you would think this would be how bad it is.

You only have an old cute old. This shit rocks. This is what I work out here in the gym. That's what I don't go to. Listen. Is that what you're doing? I'm going to do it. I'm going to do what I work out here to do Is that why you have no fucking does how much so you're not built at all

Yeah, dude that that's a fucking rocker anyway So that's that's a fun game to play what songs do I see oh wow? What a concept a game that actually makes sense All right, yeah, I'm sorry, but how are gonna in time? What else you got for us? Oh, well It's charming as I found Joe. She's just very bad at her job So I got a couple of clips of her being particularly bad at her job on the show my seven here. All right Justin Do you Hear the description of the show of the episode? I mean of the game

You dumb bastard She doesn't even know what what she's doing on her own show I but isn't that her stick though? It's the sound of the bit like she's always subtle. She's about to cry She's a little bit fray She went and watched some videos that she has on her website and stuff like she's about to cry. Yeah, she's a little bit frat. I actually went and watched some videos that she has on her website and stuff that she's done. She, I don't know, she's kind of funny,

but she's definitely not being herself. No. She's playing a character. Okay. Well, she has stand-up comedians. Yeah, she has a stand-up. She has a lot of skits and stuff like that. Okay.

But, so she's kind of doing a character. I think she's doing a character. I like the character. I like the character too. It's fine. It's in whatever, all right. I think she's doing a character. I like the character too It's fine. It's in whatever all right. I think I think Trek 6 is another version of that the way the rules state that I don't know what the real state I guess um Yeah, I think that's kind of part of it that she's disorganized and oh, where is that thing? I don't know what's going on

Which is the character I should be playing I would look so fucking stupid all the time If I just just like I don't know how to use my computer and that's why the production sucks. You're not playing It's just happening. I know it sucks. I should have thought about it a long time ago Andy I want to talk about the other episode I listen to I can't do this because I have no point to reference I have listened to. I hate when you do this because I have no point to refer to this. I know. But I don't hate it.

But it's always a curve ball to me. Well, it helps that at least you won't have clipped the same thing. Yes, that's good. So this guy, Mateo Lane, Mateo Lane, I don't like pronounced his name, but I teased this a second ago that he does this Liza Manelli impression and I'm not sure why because it's not good. Man, we got Sashir Zameda and we got Mateo Lane. I'm sure.

Oh, and we also have Liza Manelli. Well, I thought I was going to be at Studio 54. But the celebrate it took me here, I'm thrilled. Okay. Does anybody know who L lies Manelli is? No. That's what she sounds like. It's not even close. No. And then they have a caller come on and this happens.

Brendan, do you have a lock? This is a guy from Australia. He calls up and because this guy can't stop doing his lies of Manelli in question, that's fucking garbage, they ask of this. Brendan, do you have a lack of an L.A. impression? No, I have a carry grand impression. Let's hear it.

Well, what the fuck in here is this? I have a carry grand impression. What are we talking about? Let's do, I'll do my life in an L.A. You do your carry grand. I'll do my Andrew Jackson impression. I'll do my head to dice clay, you bitch. That's way too fucking a reason.

Are you kidding me? At least, I had that was weird. my end to dice clay yo, but that's way too fucking a reason you kidding me. I had that was weird. They have a color who calls up on the show named Luke, who they actually hang up on. So this is that little back and forth. You live. No, tell us.

Helping us Hollywood, havoc. What? How dare you? Luke, give us one reason why you should stay on the line. Oh, I don't have one. Luke. Luke. Give us one reason why you should stay on the line. Oh, I don't have one. Okay, goodbye, Luke. Wow.

Did you get just in the bottom of your jaw? I did. Did you get just in the bottom of your jaw? I did. I can't take this. I don't want people calling in for Hollywood Handbook. All right, so that causes all of this crazy stir. Like, oh my gosh, you hung up on Luke for Boston.

That's crazy. Well, again, that's gosh, you hung up at Luke from Boston. That's crazy. Well, again, that's what happens when you leave it to callers to. So then this happens, which is pretty funny. This is Luke's revenge. Guess who wants to play? It's Luke from Boston. Oh!

Luke is back! Luke, Luke, Luke. Hey, Luke. Hey, Luke. I'm back. Oh Luke Luke Hey, what's going on? I'm getting you a little out of calls like that No, we don't have tons of calls. We're we're have tons of calls. Yeah, we were I mean wrong Yeah, yeah, that was the funniest thing this guy already shit out there So I was trying to call Hollywood handbook I mean it hangs up on him and he comes back He's like what do you guys have no collar that just got right through again? We got a sick Richard Christie from the Howard

You could play as Ethel character. Yeah, yeah All right, I have a track on here where Yeah, yeah. All right, I have a track on here where they're, they're, they're talking about themselves at the end of the episode that you and I listened to. Sorry, I'm jumping around. Yeah, jumping around.

That's okay. And we talked about how they talked about how they met each other. This I found to be something that probably should not have been brought up at all. I remember there was that show you did. What was the one woman show you did? Oh my God, it was called spooky jerks. Spooky jerks, yes. I remember was called spooky jerks spooky jerks. Yes

I remember hearing about spooky jerks and I almost went and then I wasn't able to go I love that story Yeah me too Hey, did you play in a band a couple years ago? Yeah, I was gonna come see you guys, but I Didn't want to exactly I heard the phrase one woman show it decided I'd rather stay home and cut myself. No shit. I read I read your one review and it was not favorable. And you got to come more clips on here. You want to?

Joe trick nine for realizing exactly what this all meant. Yeah, believe how poorly this first episode has gone. Yeah, the first episode was a bit rough. Yeah, that's why I love her. Yeah, no, that's true. She is self-aware on that. Anything else, your own more track? Yeah, I just thought that Trek 10 should be the motto of our podcast, too.

All right. Yeah. Other examples of things that doesn't matter if they're good or not. This show? Podcasts. Yeah, I almost took that clip, but I'm like, I bet Andy will have one. Alright, other examples of things that doesn't matter if they're good or not this show podcasts Yeah, I almost took that clip, but I'm like I bet I need we'll have a lot of course Never taking anything too seriously on this podcast. Oh, are you kidding me? You know how much I hate angels in centerfold They're fucking saw is such a piece of shit. I'm very serious about this if they're I remember here that fucking song

This is me off man, just put on top 40 classic rock You try you try not to see the top 40 classic rock You try avoiding that the rest of your life if that's even possible. I was supposed to hear 18 in life Correct. Yeah, you got a weed through. Fucking Jake Eil's band. To get to the good shit. Right. To get to the white today, to get to some winger. There you go.

And I don't really have anything else to say about this podcast. Yeah, I mean, I feel like this podcast has an audience. If you're in your mini van waiting for soccer practice to be over, you'd probably enjoy this There's it's decent they have they have a chemist Joe and Monolo have a chemistry. I think that chemistry creates ambience but if you just watch some like boring like milk toast laughs then yeah instead of rubbing one out You can just pop this in either way. You're gonna be fast asleep very quickly I think there are people that are that are gonna like it. I probably won't listen to a third episode.

Yeah like I said I did enjoy the concept I thought Joe was was good. Yeah. The fact that I listened to a second one says a lot. It does say a lot. I'm surprised. I thought you're gonna come in here just shitting all over it and I was gonna be the the weirdo saying I kind of liked it. And then it turns out we played all these clips and talked about it. I think we both hated it, right? That's how much we hate other podcasts. This show that we just shit out for the last 30 minutes Yeah, we kind of like this is the way we treat a podcast that we like guys. We actually kind of like that compared everything else We've listened to We hear that.

Everybody has a podcast. Oh, geez. Fuck, fucking guys. Hey, we've gotten some speaking of people who hate us. We've gotten some recent iTunes reviews that I wanted to talk about real quick. Ted wrote to us back on November 27th and gave us five stars for the ACS review saying that we nailed it. Thanks for the laughs and for validating my decision to tag on in Corolla a year ago. So, Crojan and I did a show about the Adam Corolla show.

Maybe a couple of months ago now. And that was our most popular at WATP Advert. It got picked up by the subreddit again. So, in the ACS-reddit, once again, somebody posted about our show and it drove a shit ton of traffic over. So we've been getting a lot of people, that's the only show we've done. Where we got positive responses from the people who actually enjoy the show that we should have.

Every single person is like, they fucking down it. I'm second to the show too. It's amazing. So, interesting. Yeah, that's cool. That show continues to be traffic driver for us. Nice. And then we got from Big P pump on November 27th.

They should listen to themselves before judging others. One star. And the right up is impossible to listen to. Good luck. I Like that they wish people luck in listening to our show. I don't think it's impossible I mean as long as you're here co-hosting you have to listen to it once right enjoyable and impossible or two different things All right fair enough So we've we've talked about this podcast that you and I both listen to.

We've talked about recent reviews on iTunes. You know what that means, and it can only mean one thing. Of course I know what it means. It means it's time for the part of the show that everyone gets very wet in their pants about. Yeah. Oh, Jesus. Oh, Jesus. That's what's easy.

That's what's easy. That's what's easy. And I know that you know what it is. That's what it is. That's what it is. That's what it is. And I know that you know what this is. Yeah, but we might have first time listeners of our show. I can't assume everyone's listened to 83 episodes of WATP. I mean, probably most have. There's a few who are just checking the sound. They're like, that's easy.

What are they? What are they? Fucking asshole talking about. It's like in concept, the thought of it seems like a bad idea, but once you unwrap it, then it's not so bad. It's like the Otis Spunkmire of... I have no idea what you're talking about. Otis Spunkmire. Let me reset.

Let me reset what this is, this segment that we call next week's teaser, because it's probably confusing if you've not was in our show before you think, okay, they were gonna review a podcast they did. Why aren't they signing off? We're not done yet. Well, we're gonna do now, and we do this every week.

It's a lot of fun, people love it. We're gonna tease the podcast, we'll be reviewing on our show Next Weekend, right? Yeah. So what this does is it gives us the ability to get people excited about the show that we'll be doing next time. Because you probably heard this show and thought,

these guys don't have a lot to say. They're not that funny. It's not that interesting. I don't really care about the subject matter, let alone their take on the subject matter. But then you hear this part and you go, oh, well that I have to hear. I had no idea that they do this every week, and there's going to be a whole different podcast

that we're reviewing. Completely different subject matter. This is, I mean, that's a definition of a teaser, right? You're excited about it. You want to listen to it. I think you've overly explained it. Yes. Do you think so? There's probably people who are still confused. Raise your hand if you're still, oh, no, you're right. Okay, they got it. Can you go back to square one? Yes I always start over the the purpose of a teaser Here's a clip for the podcast we'll be reviewing next week Let's get on with this fucking so today is 1120 Charles Manson died today He's such a good guy

So I blame this fucking podcast for me spending so much time on Twitter. Well, yeah, there'd be no other reason for it. Oh, not with the types of people that use Twitter, but I had a note to say something about a Charles Manson thread before he died today, but so I guess it's still relevant So a couple things the first one is Every Charles Manson thread will lead you to Donald Trump, which I think is fucking ridiculous Um, and then the other one was I came across somebody that posted a picture of Marilyn Manson and then said rest in peace Charles Manson That's great. Is it? All right.

This is a podcast called Who's Right Podcast? Oh, God. And we're going to be listening to episode number 49. I believe it's number 49. They don't number them, but I'm going to make an honest man out of you. This is from November 25th, 2017. And Andy, there's a very specific reason why we are going to be reviewing this podcast next week. The Who's Right podcast

got on Twitter when everyone has a podcast was shooting all over us. Yeah. And they joined in and said, what a total waste of a mixer and microphone at who are these pod is a shitty concept executed poorly by no talented hacks Stay edgy serves. Oh All right, so that was the first thing that came out They were also the ones who coined my nickname Carl Asperger's. Oh clever. Yes hilarious So so that came out a few days after that. And then on December 1st, they replied to our tweet of last week's podcast I did with Kevin. And they said, to be honest, I find myself agreeing with the show more often than not.

Not about the podcast they should on, but calling bullshit on social justice warriors and the like. The host, Carl Asperger, is just the right amount of douche to keep me listening. And then I got a DM from them that said, I would like to formally request you review our show. If you decide to do it, please tag me so I can send people your way to listen. Let me know. So I feel like they've come full circle on this.

They started out by like, these guys fucking suck, they're ridiculous. And then they're listening to every show. They can't stop listening. And then they want to hear their show talked about. It does sound like three guys sitting around. They turn on the microphone and pull up Fox News and then that's the show. I have no idea.

I've only listened to the first three minutes of it. So I don't know what it's going to be like. I do know that they're very active on Twitter. Oh boy. So a lot of their show is about Starting Twitter wars or whatever the fuck you do on Twitter. I don't spend too much time there, but They may be setting a trap for you, Carl. Oh, dude. Definitely are you kidding me? This is gonna turn to a shit show Wait until we talk about their show. I can only imagine

What's gonna happen that that might be the very last W-A-T-P as I finally get my feelings hurt Carl finally gets his feelings hurt and what is the last and a very special episode of who are these podcasts How's that for a fucking tease? Hi, Eddie. Well, it sounds I'll definitely be tuning in so please join us again next week because it might be the episode We find out what's in for all. Who are these podcasts? Sleep well, everypony. I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful,

I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I'm gonna be a little more beautiful, I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting

I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting

I don't care for the fri-out-it-sitting I don't care for. Makes no sense.
