Great Western Forum

If I’m remembering the WTF with Marc Maron episode correctly, the only reason the episode &  forum were discussed was because the larger topic was podcasts and listener responses to them,etc.—- and the WTF episode wasn’t too long after UYD’s appearance on JJGo, so it all made sense in context. I wanted to share it in case anyone else on the forum wanted to check it out—not as a way to stir up more shit.

And I don’t think Furniture is wussing out at all. I listen to both UYD & JJGo & quite a few other comedyccentric podcasts. UYD is the one I look forward to the most—but that’s not the same as hating on the others. And Jesse does do a lot of positive things (including helping other podcasters). Hell, I wish I could go to the Maximum Fun Con: just seeing the roster of talented people that he’s able to bring together—and they’re enthusiastic participants—says a lot.

‘nuff said.

Turns out Jahnathan and Seth weren’t the only ones to have a fun time with “Jesse, Jordan, Go:”

There was a period during the interview where I began to read the titles of his CDs, one after the other. I honestly didn’t know what else to do. I had nothing to offer these people, and they didn’t give a shit anyway, and all the while a klaxon was sounding: “get out, get out, get out.”

Oh, and:

When the first leg of the book tour was concluded, I slept a full thirteen hours in a black sleep which was beyond dreaming. That’s how long it took for my skin to excrete our experience with Jesse Thorn, thereby returning my body to normal function.

lol

I’m listening to this episode again while I wait for the ep218. Jordan and Jesse make me uncomfortable. Stop talking about power jams. Very condescending. I duno… I don’t want to just talk shit about JJgo but… this was my first exposure to it, and they were in my opinion.. kind of jerks. Oil and water.

Seems like Jesse isn’t even really talking about anything. Feels like listening to a recording of someone masturbating.

So strange, I was just listening to this ep as well. I’ve since listened to more JJGo shows and do enjoy them.

The UYD ep of JJGo was a horrible interview.

They should have been treated like Guests as opposed to as a Guest audience.
