Any opinions on this crypto thing the kids are talking about?
Yup, we’re big fans of the podcast. Working through the Max show now. It’s good, and gets you some extra content, I just wish it wasn’t such short edited down versions of the podcast—would rather they include the whole interview. But it’s still great.Did you watch the show on HBO Max? I liked that a lot.Hi, I’m Otis. I used to run this joint. I never steered us wrong. And I’m here to help.

It's really good.My wife does Smartless and loves it. I've heard all about it but haven't gotten around to listening myself.
it’s freaking hilarious. Love Bateman. Arnett is so quick too. The way they all rip on each other is hilarious. But you can tell they are also good dudes who genuinely just wish others well and intend no harm. Funny, entertaining, you learn a lot about Hollywood and celebs and how many of these folks hang out with each other. And some serious stuff too. Just fantastic.It's really good.My wife does Smartless and loves it. I've heard all about it but haven't gotten around to listening myself.
Jason Bateman is absurdly quick. Not as funny as Forte naturally, maybe. But his dry little snark is my favorite part of the show.
Chemistry, simply. It's fun listening to these three guys talk.
Can someone who listens give me a top 5 episodes to check out? My wife recommended Idris Elba but we all know why she liked that one ...
She also said Ricky Gervais was good.
Stick to the funny guests. Jack Black, Jon Favreau. They can hang with the guys better.Can someone who listens give me a top 5 episodes to check out? My wife recommended Idris Elba but we all know why she liked that one ...

Dana Carvey was also amazing.I liked the David Spade episode
Elba was boring. Try Dana Carvey, Kevin Bacon, the Will Ferrell episodes, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon were also good and interesting.Can someone who listens give me a top 5 episodes to check out? My wife recommended Idris Elba but we all know why she liked that one ...

I think Max Tegmark is the one they did at one of the live shows and it was a total flop. On the series on HBO max they go into this. Audience hated it.Can someone who listens give me a top 5 episodes to check out? My wife recommended Idris Elba but we all know why she liked that one ...

Just noticed they had Max Tegmark July 13th. I'm reading his book Our Mathematical Universe now. Book is fascinating; haven't listened yet.
I'd recommend
You'll notice that my recommendations are all from the very early days of the podcast. I think I liked these best because you can tell they were (for the most part) tight with the guest (especially Jason and Will with Ron Howard from Arrested Development). As the show progressed, it's still good, but it feels a little more like they're having guests on to promote something.
That's not Will Forte.Forte: Hey Sean, don't you go to a place where everything that's not nailed down gets blown?
I just finished listening to it. If by audience you're referring to the live audience, seems like they were applauding. A lot. I suppose they could have sweetened it.I think Max Tegmark is the one they did at one of the live shows and it was a total flop. On the series on HBO max they go into this. Audience hated it.
Dang it. Arnett.That's not Will Forte.Forte: Hey Sean, don't you go to a place where everything that's not nailed down gets blown?
You could just be ahead of the game.Dang it. Arnett.That's not Will Forte.Forte: Hey Sean, don't you go to a place where everything that's not nailed down gets blown?
Always make this mistake
My favorite is how ruthless they are about Sean’s dad leaving when he was 5, and they always joke about the tires screeching as he drove off. They will hit ant softball that comes up on this.Just listened to the Danny McBride.
Danny telling the story how during a hurricane his wife put dumbells on the trampoline to hold it down, and the dumbbell actually got blown through the neighbors window.
Forte: Hey Sean, don't you go to a place where everything that's not nailed down gets blown?
laughter
Bateman: Yeah, I think it's called Dumbells?
Watch the Smartless series on HBO Max. You’ll see what I mean.I just finished listening to it. If by audience you're referring to the live audience, seems like they were applauding. A lot.

In any event, it was more AI focused that the book I read which was that the universe is a mathematical structure and that multiverses (several levels) exist. He keeps it conversational as much as he can, but it does get deep.

Although every now and then you get to a guest who you assume will be really funny and they’re not. Steve Carell was suuuuper boring and unfunny.
