I've listened to select eps over the last three or four months and it is worth a shot now and then. It can be riveting when he gets it right, but he doesn't always get it right. When he gets too deferential it's way weirder than any You Made It Weird, especially considering the alpha male roles he's known for.

If you prefer Guest Dan to Host Dan check out his couple of episodes with Kumail and Emily on the tremendous INDOOR KIDS podcast.

Good call @avclub-d542a3419c3ad57206a96bcc86155ebc:disqus, it seems like the case with so many entertainment things that they take a while to find their legs.

He was definitely one of the more fun WTF guests for a while. Who doesn't like a gangster story or two?

Sometimes Adomian is so good, so fast and committed, he seems like an alien. No mere human being could be that stupendous.

Nice work @avclub-93ece5243112587b598afe09d6fb956c:disqus , except that the best laugh in all of podcasting is Stu Perry from For Those About To Rock and second is Jimmy Pardo's "AHA!!!!!!".

Oh, I have the "advantage" of not having played video games since GTA Vice City so if Kumail and Emily don't know what they're talking about I can't tell. I don't either.
