The Jordan Jesse Go Penny Arcade interview podcast went up!

I didn't see a discussion thread. After all the discussion that the initial front page post brought, and the revelation that there are many regular listeners of the JJGo-cast, I one was called for.

Listen!

And then talk!

Kuribo's Shoe

who what?

oh yeah, those guys who gabe and tycho didn't like. huh, that took awhile to come out.

I've never listened to Jordan Jesse Go before. So mind you I'm basing this off purely being in the middle of listening to only this one episode currently. This isn't funny in the slightest.

Barcardi

is it moviecomics?

DeShadowC

I looked at the clock again. What are we at? 15 minutes...

But to be clear, you're listening to it when two people who were unhappy with being there were on.

Oh certainly. Although Mike and Jerry's anger is the only thing I'm finding funny.

Granted, but most of what I listened to (and I admit, I stopped after about 20 minutes because I was seriously bored) was just the two hosts 'bantering' with each other, and ... it really wasn't funny. Tycho was amusing, when he could get a word in edgewise.

I'm gonna make green bean casserole tonight.

Jaunty

I'm afraid of what this says about me but
I'm dying with all this dog shit

Ubik

I thought it was pretty funny

Kochikens

I listened to all of it, they really needed to let their guests talk more. There was so much interruption.

Jaunty

This is a great podcast: there need to be more podcasts between people who hate each other

#pipe

I'm maybe a quarter of the way through it

so far it's two guys trying to prove to their guests how smart and clever and funny they are

They even keep talking over each other. Its very unprofessional.

Ubik

Like I get that they didn't talk much.

But it seemed like they could have

They jumped in if they wanted to. Jerry seemed to go along with it at points

I mean I guess it's not a good "interview" but, not having listened to any other episodes, is that what the podcast is supposed to be?

It seems like a miscommunication of what the format was

I really don't see the big deal but I listen to podcasts which are mainly just dudes sitting around and talking.

Barcardi

everyone stop listening to this and listen to bill simmons chat it up with david dochovny

this is exactly what it was

#pipe. I have watched the video like 3 or 4 times and I'm still considering PMing you about the girl in your sig. Actually moreso than before I watched it, now that I think about it. So... mesmerizing.

Re: the podcast - I may listen to it at some point. I don't know. It sounds kind of tense.

I mean I know that the guys sitting around and bullshitting podcasts I listen to are edited down from a lot of material

but I'm pretty sure that Mike and Jerry going on You Look Nice Today would be a heck of a lot more funny than this.

Smart Hero

JJG isn't really an interview show

it's them shooting the shit with their guests about, like, dinosaurs and stuff

which is not at all what Mike and Jerry were prepared for

There's a thread for this already?

I don't get why they didn't roll with it and be like "ok, this isn't a traditional interview" instead of coming off like jerks about the whole thing

i.e. get mad at the people who said it was an interview show, not the hosts

dukerayburn

Yeah, the show is not an interview show. There were miscommunications throughout the week before, so Gave and Tycho's publicist never really got that fact across to them.

It's just a free-form comedy talk show. When hosts and guest(s) are all on the same page, it can be very funny. This time, it wasn't.

tynic

Maybe they were bored.

I... I didn't know. Where is it?

NotASenator

Also, it wasn't a miscommunication as much as a non-communication. They had no clue what they were walking into.

#pipe

please stop referring to Mike and Jerry as "G&T"

it makes me think of that awful forum

Fair enough. That's a jerk move.

This podcast makes me wish that Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick did a podcast

lostwords

oh hey, can we talk about other podcasts too?

this american life and fresh air and bs report and smodcast and slashfilm and the ifc.com podcasts are all great!

also, i've been getting into the creative screenwriting magazine podcast lately, and it is great! the latest one is for the movie Once, which makes me so very happy

Fair enough. That's a jerk move.

In Jesse's explanation he said that they had moved the time and that didn't get communicated down to Mike and Jerry, so they were there 30 minutes before Jesse expected them, but Jordan was 20 minutes late because of traffic.

The guy I feel worst for in all this is Jordan, because he is a really big fan and was really looking forward to that show.
