Andy Daly stars as a guy that has a TV show where he will review anything about life by actually doing it.

I highly recommend it. Andy Daly might just be the funniest improv guy out there. This isn't improv but he's still incredible in it.

Each of his reviews goes horribly wrong and build up on the one before. It's in it's 2nd season but I highly recommend watching from the beginning due to the nature of each review impacting what comes later. Every episode is online at Comedy Central for free.

I'd give more but it's pretty hard to describe.

I think you'd really like this, then.

You should listen to his Andy Daly Podcast Pilot Project. He does an improv podcast pilot on one of his characters. My two favorite both feature Paul F. Tompkins -

The Dalton Wilcox one and the August Lindt Travel Bug shows. Funniest podcasts I've ever heard.

If you do, please enjoy August Lindt's segment, "How close have you been to Skokie?"

I caught one of these on ondemand. I was surprised at how funny I thought it was. Comedy Central needs some actual comedy on their station.

Start from the beginning, jimmy. It's funnier if you know the things that have happened before.

Also, I think you'll appreciate his short-skirted co-host, AJ.

He didn't stand out for me in that series. I fell in love with Stevie.

Ahh and excuse to geek out about one of my favorite comedy actors of all time. Just check out any appearance of his on Comedy Bang Bang, but especially those where he is paired up with Jason Mantzoukas (aka Rafi from The League), some of the funniest shit ever.

Then you'd love Andy's podcast.

He takes a lot of those same characters and improvs a whole pilot episode of what their podcast would be like with Matt Gourley. They also grab a bunch of other CBB regulars to help them and Besser.

I am familiar with the ADPPP. Big fan of the Dalton Wilcox one. Thing that one is GOAT for that particular podcast.

The Wilcox one has my favorite moment when Dalton declares that Russell is "here under false pretenses and...he's been a real good sport."

I think the August one is more consistent through the whole thing by just a little bit.

It's 1 and 1A with me.

Watched first episode. It was just ok. I assume it gets better as you get familiar with the style.

I think so. Not for everybody. Seems a polarizing show.

I'm also excited for the new season of the Pistol Shrimps Radio podcast which should come out tomorrow. First game is tonight.

Dire Straits.
