Let the waiting and pacing transition to listening and pacing…Monday, funday! 🤗

Steve

The show gets off to a rough start with both guys interrupting and talking over each other, as if they are too excited to talk after all these years. Then they settle in, a groove develops and the episode gets much better. Already looking forward to next week.

First rate - money worth it episode 👷🏽‍♂️🔨☕️⭐️

BEE, peeps. Have you guys ever thought of getting a comedian on the podcast? There has to be a mother ton of them where you guys are. I'd also love to hear Bret talk about or even talk to some of the new personalities out there like the Critical Drinker.

M. Nero Nava

Teena Marie is under appreciated.

Jorge Espinha

It’s good to hear somebody that lived a full live, is a creative person and has no resentment.

I think there’s a Bill Burr episode from the podcast one days.

Anyone else when Bret refers to his girlfriend automatically think, “yeah, Debbie”?

Bookth

Ridiculously enjoyable. Funny moment when John admits that Bret’s infallible memory is right, then that tidbit about his party maybe inspiring a scene in Less Than Zero.

richard owain roberts

am going to listen on my run. will say more later, after my run.

Billy Vega

Would love if Critical Drinker came on - even as a phone in guest. Mentions a lot of similar points to Bret and also is a writer. Would be a great convo.

Brian Rooney

Ian Svenonius’ Against the Written Word! Get ‘em on!!

Brian Rooney

If you’re talkin Eagles naturally, you’re vibin’ on cloud nine. Cheers everybody. I’ll say this … glad we can all converse. Excellent episode.

Also too, whenever Bret gets in the “you only need two - Hemingway, Didion” pocket - the best. Talking commas. All that matters.

R. M.

Bret should pick one or a few of the best of the 100 songs he wrote and record them with Shanks now. I would love to hear them.

3?? haha. You're making my point for me. I'm pretty sure Stanhope and Maron were the old podcast, too. I'm talking Theo Von or Tom Segura, etc.

Paul Wasowicz

Excellent musical guest and blast from Bret’s teenage years. How nostalgic. Loved it!

R. M.

The Who concert that was telecast at Shank's party was on December 17, 1982. They performed at Maple Leaf Garden in Toronto, Canada. It was the last date of The Who's farewell tour.

Todd is incredibly talented (have actually spent time in the studio with him). He could help facilitate and would be amazing colab.

BrienPiechos

This was entertaining. More behind the scenes anecdotes from John would have been nice.

Phoenix

Very enjoyable episode

JEREMY ROBERTS

Boring dude! Too much name-dropping. Could have been cut to 20 minutes. Zzzzzzzz .....

Dave

Really enjoyed and look forward to Part 2!

john m

This was fantastic.

David

Great episode.

Steven Menelly

Lol at cutting the episode at “Where’s the bridge?”

Lachlan Reid

One of the best episodes this season

Charlie

Adam giggling his ass off when John mentions he opened for the Eagles a number of times 😂

Leonard Appleman

John states that he and Sheryl Crowe wrote “Steve McQueen” because no one else had done a song about him. Drive By Truckers put out a song of the same name/topic 4 years earlier. To me the Crowe song is easier on the ears but the lyrics of the DBT song are more interesting.

Jorge Espinha

I’m really not very interested in musicians and producers. It was odd the scene he described about seeing his father in a retirement home. Isn’t his father and himself supposed to have money? He puts him in a home? I’m sure his children took note of that. Superficial scumbags these celebrity Californians
