iMonrey February 28 Share February 28 Monday's show was good. I liked all three panelists. I've tried to listen to Marc Maron's podcast but he interrupts his guests incessantly and seems to have a moderate case of ADD. I've never seen Brendan Hunt in anything else but Ted Lasso so I'm not familiar with his background. Zainab Johnson is great in Upload, I'm curious to check out her stand-up special. Speaking of which, I watched Taylor Tomlinson's Netflix special this week, or at least part of it. It wasn't very good IMO.

I feel like that’s the goal of the show- to be cheap, disposable humor. I mean, the signature game is about spitting out as many puns as possible in a minute. If anything, the memorable things are the times where the show didn’t work- like that chud Pally trying to hijack the games.

I watch youtube almost always at 1.5x speed but that's not an option on the CBS site. I don't know if it's just this group (who I am not familiar with - I've only seen Marcella before - and am not finding especially hilarious) or the slower speed but it's not as good. The USA USA USA chanting is not nearly as hysterical as Taylor seems to find it.
