I tried to like “Comedy Bang! Bang!” but the improv bits miss way more than they hit, and the “surprise guest” conceit quickly wore very thin on me. Who knows though, it may work better on TV than as a podcast, especially if they get some good editors.
I started out lukewarm on CBB, but over the past few months I’ve really grown to love it. Yes, the improv misses the mark sometimes, but when it works, it’s hysterical. Also, I’ll listen to anything Paul F. Tompkins does. I recommend his Dead Authors Podcast if you haven’t tried it yet.
I don’t think there is anything funnier to my Pot Addled brain than Harris Wittels and Adam Scott as Jack Sjunior (Son of Carl Sjunior) and Bryan Pieces.
I’d also go so far as to say that while I may be in the severe minority I think the bits sometimes work just as well if not better when they break down.

Love this podcast. So many great guests. Andrew Daly, Paul F. Tompkins, and James Adomian all kick ass on this show.

Adam Pally’s Rap Battle is fucking amazing, and Dom Dimelo is my hero.
