Aparna being in a Super Bowl ad is amazing

 

Mary Holland and Matt Newell were in Hyundai's Super Bowl ad. Definitely saw a few familiar faces.

 

Holy crap, surprise Louis CK appearance on CBB

 

Yes!

Comedy Sex God - Pete Holmes - Hardcover

 

I want to preorder Pete's book, but I'm hoping/wondering if there's any place offering something special for pre-ordering (maybe a signed copy or something)

 

Good call. I'd love a signed copy. Petey's my homeboy!

 

it’s only truly a Pete Holmes book if the advertised 288 pages is actually 1,700 and the back cover is forced to cut him off

 

Laser accuracy!

 

i really think this is the year the plug bag theme doesn’t make it through. it’s fuckin awful and Scott seems genuinely displeased with it haha

 

I love the restlessness that an opening theme causes if it goes over 15 seconds and yet the closing theme seems to always go on way after the natural stopping point. Idk I know I'm insane to care, I prob just don't dig Benny boy as much as I used to.

 

For some reason I have soured on Ben, too. He always comes in at 1000% and drives me nuts.

That said - I think the new Closing Up The Plug Bag theme song is tops haha.

 

I wish they'd bring back Jukebox Jury

 

i appreciate Punch Up the Jam’s ability to take a song i have a lifetime of indifference towards and convince me it’s the best song i’ve ever heard

 

I'm always worried when I don't know the song but it never winds up an issue

 

I had Ari Shaffir on my podcast last week. Check it out if you're into him:

 

Earwolf engineers are on Facebook live doing a multi-cam video test right now to see if they can do some in-studio live streams, omg

 

I feel like theyve done that for I4H before

 

Years ago they did that with an episode or two of CBB, Who Charted

 

The final three episodes of my comedy cooking show for Delish are FINALLY out (finished them last July...)
This is probably my favorite. I die in it.

 

John Cullen giving a shoutout to AP.net on today's Blocked Party! He told a story about the old forums. Pretty cool.

 

"The Iranian-American actress created the show and is writing, exec producing and co-showrunning with Hayes Davenport"

 

why do i feel like any show either of the boys gets attached to is doomed.....
