I found something about Steve Albini dissing her. Is she darkwave or something?
― Listen to this, dad (President Keyes), Thursday, 13 September 2012 22:44 (eleven years ago) link
Nah, the short of it: she made gobs of money via kickstarter for her most recent album ($1.2M) and now she's going on tour, but she'd rather recruit talented fans at each stop to comprise her band rather than pay professionals to tour with her. Also, there's quite a bit of discrepancy about how all the money she DID make via donations was actually spent.

is she pompla or moose

what are the odds Maron asks him about the new showrunners?
― Listen to this, dad (President Keyes), Monday, 17 September 2012 16:14 (eleven years ago) link
lol he probably did the interview before Harmon was fired.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 17 September 2012 16:15 (eleven years ago) link
Key & Peele were really funny. I've only watched that show once, but maybe I'll make a habit of it.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 17 September 2012 19:58 (eleven years ago) link
I just finished that episode. I'd never heard of them. Will totally check their show out now.
― EZ Snappin, Monday, 17 September 2012 20:19 (eleven years ago) link
I never wanted to watch the show, the trailers looked awful. Were they really that good?

Yeah, definitely.

I've been listening to some of the free podcasts recommended above, and I'm coming around on this guy. He can be a great interviewer and I'm finding a smaller percentage of these to be depressing the more I listen.
This guy seems to say "POW! I just shit my pants..." a lot. Is there an origin story to that?
― stURGEON & musKEY (how's life), Thursday, 20 September 2012 13:19 (eleven years ago) link
he only says it when he's plugging Just Coffee dot co-op
the origin is that caffeine can stimulate the bowels
he is joking that the coffee is so good that as soon as he sips it he shits his pants
it is an advertising slogan
they sponsor the show (and have since pre-podcast) so he says it a lot
― ┐(´ー`)┌ (sic), Thursday, 20 September 2012 13:34 (eleven years ago) link
hope this helps
Based on what Rash said about the 4th season I think you're right

There was a good article in the Madison alt-weekly about the owner of Just Coffee and his ambivalent feelings about the fact that 99% of people who know the name of his brand associate it with involuntary explosive defecation.
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 20 September 2012 14:25 (eleven years ago) link
nbd, really. I wasn't planning on sharing this podcast with anyone I love anyway.

I haven't listened yet, and was actually making a joke related to Maron's unlucky interview timing, but I can't believe it happened again! Maron interviews someone, something big involving that someone happens, Maron releases the interview after that something big happens without being able to address that issue. Poor guy.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 20 September 2012 15:08 (eleven years ago) link
ha, i missed that.

It's a little hard to tell, but a couple of times Rash talks about season 3 as though it's still airing, and then talks about how Harmon does his Joseph Campbell narrative arcs over whole seasons, and how he can't wait to see where he goes with it in Season 4. But then Maron starts grousing about network bean-counters--but that could mean the interview was recorded when Community's future was in doubt. No mention of Harmon's firing at all. But is it possible Maron has had this interview in the can since May or earlier?
― Listen to this, dad (President Keyes), Thursday, 20 September 2012 15:37 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah. He'll sit on interviews sometimes so they'll coincide with something (like the start of the tv season). Although, since Community isn't coming back until October, I'm not sure why he'd put the Rash one up now. I guess he just has so many in the pipeline that its time had come.

Just listened to and loved the JB Smoove interview.
He's one of the best so far as dealing with the mandatory Maron moments: 1) "What does your brother do?" "He's just a working man." (as in: he doesn't identify himself by his job)2) "How did you get the SNL gig?" "It just happened."
― canonical casual cordouroy (Eazy), Thursday, 20 September 2012 18:27 (eleven years ago) link
JB Smoove won that show by never stopping to breathe. Marc could hardly make it about himself.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 20 September 2012 19:06 (eleven years ago) link
I loved all the whining in the K&P interview about all the libs on Maron's back for asking Indian food.
― Listen to this, dad (President Keyes), Thursday, 20 September 2012 19:36 (eleven years ago) link
that was some Amanda Palmer level strawmanning
I want to be friends with Jim Rash irl. Very sad that I'm not.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 20 September 2012 19:37 (eleven years ago) link
Okay, yeah, I've never really watched Key and Peele's show, but this episode is great. Particularly love the fantasy Hollywood game, I want to play!

I'm a little ways into Key and Peele -- thanks for the heads up guys, you're right this one's pretty great!

I liked that she was kind of disgusted at his research habits
― Listen to this, dad (President Keyes), Tuesday, 25 September 2012 15:44 (eleven years ago) link
oh i might have to check out the kerri kenney episode, i love her. yeah, cake like was kind of an up-and-coming band that never really came up.

All the like "how many of them did you sleep with?", "oh, so you were playing with your boyfriends' instruments and now none of you play music anymore?" patronizing misogynistic bullshit.

That's the impression I got anyway. It was an awkward interview regardless. He wasn't asking great questions.
― how's life, Tuesday, 25 September 2012 16:01 (eleven years ago) link
Poorly researched, as noted above.
