i dont know why im so addicted to this... but im here every week.

[@liamnevilleviolist1809]

It's brilliant isn't it? I'm also here every week. I'm so pleased whenever a new one comes out, especially if I haven't been thinking about it for a week. I think if we didn't have a comedian as good and honest and childlike as Jim on the show it wouldn't be nearly as good. It would be dead boring. I think if you're a Jim Jefferies fan, like documentaries, and are an open minded person then this podcast is definitely for you :) I wonder how the live shows will go...

[@ThatNathan]

Yet to hear a bad episode

[@jaycarlotamayo17]

Me too!

[@AxeMan808]

It's a good group, and they're having fun. Also Jack and Luis (sp?) getting into the action more is fun. The shows REALLY pop when the Guest is into it too! The Elvis Climate guy should be a recurring guest just to help kibbitz other guests.

[@pittypatterputzzler5311]

Literally stood up and clapped Jim hitting the topic on the first attempt. Best reactions from everybody!

@Art Vandelay that is horrible reasoning! So many things are popular when they come out that aren’t good. The last Star Wars Trilogy... I rest my case

[@4000anas]

@Art Vandelay have you seen one of those sex podcasts? Where a couple women just talk about their sexual encounters? Yeah they’re definitely popular because of their wholesome content alright 😂

[@andybaldman]

Agreed. If they just keep doing what they're doing, they'll be huge in time. This is way better than hearing some idiot pitching his latest movie on JRE. Most podcasts have become 2-hour commercials. Lame.

Engaging and edcational.

And mesmerising as well.

[@lonelyone]

The expert was positively delightful. And lovely. I want a replica of my skull too.

[@souldefunk]

listened to this and 3 or 4 older ones again. this had become one of my favorite podcasts to enjoy. love the format and banter.

[@emdiar6588]

First Dawkins and now ALICE ROBERTS!!!! Every fan of BBC4 popular science documentaries (like me) is shouting at Jim, in Judging a Book By its Cover, "It's ALICE FCKIN ROBERTS!!!!!" Good job he got it in one question.

[@leonversie9949]

Man... I wish my lectures were this fun

[@MaggieDozer]

How about an episode related to singing or opera to hear more about Jim's life as an opera singer before becoming a comic?

[@TheDavedevil619]

🤟🤟

[@oscarinacan]

Whatchoutalkinbout willis?

[@hockeygrrrl8]

Good call!

[@MaggieDozer]

@@oscarinacan Jim studied music and I believe he was or was in training to be a professional opera singer, However, I think he required surgery on his voice box and had to take time away from singing, which helped prompt his standup career. He talked about it on Opie and Anthony many years ago, so I could have the details wrong.

[@oscarinacan]

@@MaggieDozer well I didn't know about that. Thanks for sharing

[@james-yn4zz]

I'm just hoping for a funny introduction every week, fuck they're too good!! Space......like outer, or in the back of your car 😂 my favourite intro so far.

Is Jim Jefferies on Hot Ones a possibility in the future? Big fan since 2010 man! Kelly, Forrest and Jack, you all are great! And Calgary, Alberta, Canada misses you sir!

[@aphexamine]

he had his comedy central show cancelled because he was caught in the act of misrepresenting someones words and also he made "jokes" that were far beyond anything the interviewee said. Hot Ones would ruin themselves if they had him on, so it wont happen.

[@weasel73]

YESSSSSS! FIRST GUESS!! I knew you could do it Jim!

Love this show. Keeps me laughing while I work my soul destroying job. You should do a podcast on the worldwide importance of bees :)

[@patricksissian6527]

Maybe it's the heat, or maybe it's that I'm 8 beers deep, but I just realised that Jack is the one who sings the "judging a book by its cover" intro.

[@4000anas]

Well I don’t know about that..

[@DrBojanglez105]

Sometimes I think about how Opie and Anthony would react to some of Jim’s softball jokes. That said, love the show.

[@liamnevilleviolist1809]

7:25 - R.I.P Lieutenant Maxwell Nugent. Hearing Jim talk about his nephew this time around is now very upsetting, especially as Jim's smiling and clearly very proud of him in this episode (which was 2 years before the tragic accident). Sending my love from Perth Jim!

[@pikasnipe1]

Holy shit first guess! I literally jumped up!

[@morganbishop2974]

Been watching this for a good few months now and watched every episode, people can say that you bully jack but looking at how much more he’s become apart of the show since the first episode shows he’s just one of you guys as well just having a bit of banter, hopefully you do a video on Egyptian mythology soon just like the Greek one then it’ll be a 10/10 hands down

[@tamala113]

This episode was so good, I laughed out loud so many times. Side note, please invest in some reusable water bottles ❤️

[@McCarthyJohn100]

This has to be one of their best episodes of this podcast.

[@weirdunclebob]

I'm about 10 years your senior, Jim, and when I was in year 11 in Perth WA, we had to dissect a frog in Biology. I walked out as I didn't want to do it. Thought it was unnecessary and cruel. At TAFE a few years later doing a Laboratory Practices class in Biology, they gave us live rats and we had to kill them in a desiccator and then dissect them. I walked out of that, too. It can all be done with computers these days, thankfully, so no need for 'lab rats' or 'guinea pigs' anymore.

[@firstnamelastname180]

Really good one, great guest with a good sense of humour!

[@jjaronske6445]

By far the CLEANEST comedy jim has ever done

[@floraofnevada6493]

Damn a little baby tomagachi in a pouch and you could keep em on a keychain. Makes so much sense

[@danielplays6519]

Couple of questions for Jim. I just started re-watching legit. I love the airplane scene “aisle gets one arm rest and a little bit of extra leg ...” and I remember it from one of your specials. Did it actually happen like that and is there anymore to it. Also any update on the legit podcast ?

[@nickos1982]

The 3 amigos and Jack were stellar as always......Mum says to keep your tongue inside if it has nothing else nice to say

[@Zoran1899]

This was the best episode. Keep going! And I do hope that Jim will do an other show in Hungary after the covid.

[@jennatalia3541]

Long time listener, first time commenter. I think Jack's confidence has grown, since we first got to here him talk while in college. You need to give him more work to do that he can grow...not pay him more, just more to do. Have been enjoying Jim's work for years. Kelly wasn't allowed to speak much before this podcast, so it's nice to hear another woman's voice. Forrest...it sounds Iike you're faking your raspy voice, but since it's consistent, I guess it's real. Does your voice change when you do karaoke? Podcast idea!!!
