Content

During the 2012 election cycle, Pauly Shore went to Washington to take the temperature on American and Her Problems. His resulting comedy special, PAULY SHORE'S PAULY-TICS (2012), accidentally foreshadows some of the bad vibes of the years to come. PLUS: We chart one Oscar blogger's evolution from #StillWithHer to MAGA.

I can think of no other movie that shares more DNA with a memoir like HillBilly Elegy than “3 billboards outside …”. It is an endless parade of the worst rust belt burlesque possible.

I can immediately think of an analogous figure to Sasha Stone: Naomi Wolf. She was absolutely a Clinton Democrat, then she started to waver when people called the massive error in her book ‘Outrages’, before COVID-19, mask mandates and the vaccine sent her completely over the edge. As far as I know, Wolf hasn’t embraced white power yet, but she was a regular on Steve Bannon’s podcast

Luke saying "I know we have Pauly Shore to talk about, but ..." made me LOL.

Whom amongst us isn't a victim of hysterical finger-pointers? I hate those guys!

If Luke's reading, did you ever encounter the PUMAs circa 2008? They were hardcore Hillary supporters who absolutely hated Obama and a lot of them transitioned into Republican supporters because of Sarah Palin. There was also the hilarious HillaryIs44 website (as in 44th president), it was a way more popular tendency than one might think.

I was looking for that very website just the other week! Seems like you can only find it through the Waybackmachine these days. - L

Only interrupting the book writing for M&U? 😊 More like Less Important Cinema Club amirite

I would definitely be interested in a three billboards out of ebbings missouri episode. I think The Banshees of Inisherin was great because while there is no place like Inisherin in real life, he's intimately familiar with Ireland and he gets to the heart of a certain kind of Irishness. Three Billboards is like if an American guy who is pretty sure he knows a lot about Ireland tried to make The Banshees of Inisherin, it's a mess. A guy in the NYT said it's "a set of postcards from a Martian lured to America by a cable news ticker and by rumors of how easily flattered and provoked we are."

Re: remaining Biden apologists, Anita Dunn was on the playbook deep dive podcast this week spouting that line. Just plain delusional

Orn Pauldorf

along the lines of Luke's demagogue-related tirade: one of the most fundamentally fucked up elements of mainstream American politics is how many people are self-identified "fans" of specific politicians... and equally fucked is the degree to which this is treated as normal. these people are public servants! they work for *us*! how are you going to hold any public figure accountable for their job performance if you've already committed to defending them from criticism??

“Rictus grin” is one of my new favorite Michael & Us Bingo Spaces.

Oliver Crane

Any update on how H. A. Goodman is doing? I think he became a Trump guy after he stopped publishing “how Bernie can still win” pieces in 2018

Just messing w you Sloan :) excited to hear about the book!

I know the hosts have said this about many things reviewed on the podcast, but this actually sounds to me like the most enervating experience yet. I might even prefer to watch one of the baffling Tubi documentaries. So…thank you for your service.

You guys are too young to fully appreciate how much animosity people had for Pauly Shore in the ‘90s. He was obnoxious and seemed to have zero fans but was all over the damn place.

It’s easy to forget that Herman Cain died given after his passing his Twitter account kept posting, particularly about how Covid wasn’t that harmful (after he’d died from it).

Hoping Will’s book is out in time for Christmas. I want to wake up that morning this year finding a new Will, and Luke Savage, book(s) waiting under the Christmas tree just for me.

Niall Bryden

Totally forgot tenacious d are in bio-dome

Listening to the episode… and I have the horrible realization that both my parents have the same politics as Pauly Shore. ☠️

Alex

For years my only frame of reference for who Pauly Shore is was the Futurama episode where he steals Fry's girlfriend at the end

That was where I first heard of him too haha. I don't think he had any cultural impact in the UK at all

Now trying to envisage a cursed washed up British comedian equivalent of this for the 2010 or 2015 elections which I'm certain must exist

Chris Sherman

For some reason, when Luke said "the left?!" in shock and disbelief, I flashed back to Ricky Gervais saying, "Mr Toad?!" in The Office.

Ashley Naftule

I made the (big, huge) mistake of watching an episode of Pauly’s E Network reality show back in the day, and there’s a bit in there where he’s (no joke) whining to his therapist about having too much sex. I swore a fatwa on him at that moment

Fuck that genocide-denier. Mary Walsh did ambush interviews years before Borat, and did them way better.

Monique Thigpen

was rly confused bc at first I thought yall were talking about DJ Pauly D from Jersey Shore? It was almost halfway thru the ep I realized it was a completely separate guy 🫣😅

An acquaintance of mine writes/wrote for Awards Daily as of this comment and I wish I were closer to them to get the dirt.

Why do I know precisely who Pauly Shore is but also have NO IDEA who Pauly Shore is? I’ve listened to about 85% of this episode and for some reason my knowledge, or lack thereof, of Pauly Shore has not changed one iota. It’s such a weird phenomenon and I can’t be the only one who experiences this.
