[@davewebbtheauthor]

I think this is my favorite Seinfeld interview of all. Leave it to the genius of Rich to let Jerry roll when he's on a roll, and to ask the right questions in order to get new stories that haven't been heard before.

[@jakors]

Agreed. This interview clicked in extraordinary ways. I love when Jerry gets deep into the science of what makes a joke work: using the "k" sound, ending a punchline sooner than expected, mixing popcorn with a lack of empathy, etc. Great stuff I've never seen him dig into in other interviews.

[@josephwroglieri]

Jerry is 100% right about the set!

[@settermanfishing]

I think Rich needs the Merv Griffin set!😂

[@escapist502]

Annnndd….we’re back! Ummmm….where are the cameras??😂

[@rickyiglesias5384]

you mean "Scandals & Animals"?

[@ARIZJOE]

Not a bad idea. It would also be good to have a salacious card on a par with Jack Sheldon.

[@pewterpirate4560]

I still binge watch "Seinfeld" when ive had a bad day.

[@penoyer79]

absolutely.

[@shonuff4323]

Who doesn't.I'm guessing you are Gen X

[@jodythomas4324]

The holy trinity of S’s: The greatest sitcom of all time: Seinfeld The greatest adult animated show of all time: South Park (or the Simpsons) The greatest show (drama) of all time: The Sopranos. These are my personal go to’s on a bad day, or any day really lol

[@jasonchristenson1]

there is an episode for every crappy situation. life is just a game. the show reminds us of it.

[@sheldons6562]

And still laugh like it’s your first time seizing that episode.

[@DanJanTube]

Jerry's best line on Seinfeld is easy. Car rental agent: "I Know why we take reservations." Jerry: "I don't think you do."

[@kissmynoid3263]

Uno momento por favor

[@technoir2584]

The Man Hands scenes really got me laughing.

[@williest1]

AGREED!!

[@jono1761]

You know how to take the reservation, you just don't know how to HOLDDDD the reservation.

[@lisalisa1054]

Jerry, please do MORE comedians in cars getting coffee. Do 1000 more episodes!!!

[@Innogrouphongkong]

Problem is, there is no more worth people to be invited out for coffee...

[@David_7171]

Nah, the only episode I liked and actually rewatched many times is the Michael Richard’s one.

[@rossw5576]

Bert Kreischer

[@spaniardprince]

They are great. I re-watch the best ones.

[@J.M.-nb4gw]

I've seen several of those and really not that funny, it all seems a little contrived to me. Plus Seinfeld is kind of an obnoxious douchebag, so there's that 🙄

[@ReeBPM]

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee is a show that you can always out on and be entertained. I so wish we could get more!

[@J.M.-nb4gw]

It would be great if it was actually funny instead of a contrived piece of crap with tired Seinfeld "humor". Jerry has never really been that funny except to morons 😁

[@LCplDwayneHicks]

@@J.M.-nb4gw Russian bot

[@janaadams7958]

I almost didn’t watch this episode because I thought I’d heard everything Jerry had to say during these promo interviews. I loved this interview ! Really enjoyed the chemistry and back and forth here …. along with fun stories. I’ve always been a Seinfeld and Larry David fan.

[@easye5653]

Yes, and Jerry doesn't age! He Looks incredible. 👍👏

[@2URGSE]

Jerry should have stood up the whole time 😂😂😂😂

[@paulgibson3259]

I could listen all day to comedy science. The little nuances that can put it over the top.

[@PraetorRykard666]

Exactly that's what I loved about comedians getting coffee was he would break down what made other comedians jokes funny

[@jaya1000]

Shame there wont be another Jerry Seinfeld. He was really able to take Larry davids dark sense of humor and make it beloved by 1/2 the country. That's a gift

[@ivywoodxrecords]

Well said

[@elisemiller13]

@jaya1000 So agree with you. Jerry says he and Larry are the same, but I never could watch Larry in Curb... however Seinfeld... absolute treasure!

[@jaya1000]

@@elisemiller13 curb is funny but cringe in a meet the parents on crack sort of way. I can only take curb in small doses. Binge watching it is out. Seinfeld was the I love Lucy of the 90s. Unless youre a little slow its impossible not to like

[@richpak1398]

Seinfeld was on network TV, Curb is on HBO. Seinfeld had to be watered down and filtered through network execs, whereas Curb can be completely unhinged. This whiny old version of Seinfeld has no sense of irony.

[@jamesfisher529]

I have so many comments on this, growing up in the Seinfeld generation, I cant even put them into a single comment. I will just say great guest, great show, loved how he took shots at Rich and how does he not know how something is funny. That should be a show.

[@hernanhernandez3861]

This was great. I worked for another Jewish billionaire that was just like Jerry. We were negotiating a huge deal one time and in the middle of the negotiations he said something that he knew that I would lose it... giggling like a school girl. I miss those days....

[@manuelvegegavlogs7506]

The best of unfrosted are Jerrys interviews

[@kellywright9791]

LOVE comedians in cars! Do more, Jerry!!!

[@dr.a.o.]

Jerry is funnier than ever. Love him since many decades.

[@MatthewErnst7]

this man is a genius

[@MrBuketman]

“The worst Nazi and the most beloved Jew” 😂🎉

[@jbuystedt]

Such a good interview, I love how rich goes with the flow on these and doesnt try to take it away from the guest.

[@HardyOh]

Rich has a gift with his interview style, I love it!

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

The waltz and the goose step 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Trammel_Hand]

So amazing how old those tropes are...sigh

[@jackharle1251]

Hitler and Waltz are both Austrian

[@jeffreyamster6020]

I don’t think that Christoph would appreciate being compared to Adolf

[@janbart2027]

​@@jeffreyamster6020 Who is comparing Christoph to Adolf?

[@yoyolebatteur]

Why can't Larry and Jerry just do a podcast together, talking about whatever for hours.

[@scott3656]

That's a fantastic idea. They could do it remotely so Larry doesn't have to leave his house!

[@luckylucky-vo9zq]

Like Jerry needs a podcast.Really?

[@rawpower12xu]

My favorite episode of Comedians in Card Getting coffee was the old chunk of coal himself: Norm Macdonald. Very few people cracked Seinfeld as much as Normie, Normie, Normie

[@richardstevens7547]

​@@kendallandrews8691OMG, that was a good one. 😂😂😂

[@pettycamp]

An underrated aspect of Larry David is how comedy smart he is. Even though he hated the Einstein joke referenced here, he still knew it had to stay in the final version of that episode. It was too good. Strange that he didn't like it, mind you, that's one of the funniest tv clips of all time.

[@Historian212]

Underrated? No way.

[@GOTTAMIKE]

I’m just 15 minutes in and giving Rich an A++++. Obviously Jerry came in loaded and Rich is just letting him riff. More hosts should be like this. Hey Maher, you paying attention here?!

[@TheBigFunky4]

Jerry and Larry should do a series of shows where they interview sports icons and ask them questions about the minutia of life in sports. 4 episodes, NFL, NHL, MLB, NBA, with Rich as the host. First ep is NFL with Chad Ochocinco.

[@frankG335]

I LOVE Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee". The discussions about the creative process, eriting, hard work, persistence... it was wonderful and I re-watch it all the time

[@tka72]

This is gold

[@Trammel_Hand]

like the gold that makes green toe jam

[@user-ow2fy9ts2l]

Jerry is spot on about Rich just making people feel good (us and the guests). He's kind and genuine. I always enjoy listening

[@KB-qh2jt]

I don’t know how Jerry kept any composure at all while Philip Baker Hall as Lt. Bookman the library cop was berating him, that must be one of the top scenes on the series. It just kept getting funnier as the scene went on and when Bookman called Jerry a Joy Boy in the line “Maybe that’s how you get your kicks, you and your good time buddies, well I got a flash for you Joy Boy, party time is over.”, that was over the top.

[@ryanwhitacre773]

Bookman? That's like an ice cream guy named Cone.

[@NewFalconerRecords]

It was the huge bags under his eyes that killed me, they seemed to have a life of their own. "Rock was never my bag, but you put on a pair of shoes before you walk into the New York Public Library fella."

[@emiliodaddio8517]

This is why he’s the King. Making nothing into something absolutely hysterical.

[@Ryan-eu3kp]

It's basic psychology

[@TheJoStephan]

We REALLY need more episodes of Comedians in Cars getting Coffee. PLEASE!!!☺️

[@penoyer79]

Jerry's age has finally caught up to his personality. The guy is in his prime. I was never a fan of Jerry's standup, but when he's just sitting and talking with someone I find him much funnier. He doesn't really need material, just a pitcher to hang fast balls over the strike zone all night and let him swing away.

[@elisemiller13]

@penoyer79 Well said! definition of an old Jewish man ( I'm an old Jewish woman & it's true for some of us as well!)

[@laurenbendik2006]

Im a young jewish woman but ive been an old jewish woman since i was 3. Ppl would tell me i was a kid woody allen lmao.

[@tedtalksrock]

He would LOVE this observation. Well-said. ⭐️

[@MarkAMMarrk]

I know he's just promoting a movie, but it's so great to see Jerry out there again, as always, being his hilarious self.

[@Hiluxtaco]

I absolutely love this interview with Jerry Seinfeld... 🙌

[@veritas6335]

The difference between Austria and Germany being the difference between the waltz and the goose step is the best line I've heard in years!

[@Day_Jyer]

I love how Rich gets great stuff from Larry and Jerry!

[@TadashiNazuka]

Jerry is the Best. Great Interview.

[@johnsmith-ug5tp]

So true! An awkward set arrangement. 🤣

[@ShreyasBharadwaj]

Andy Kaufman had a sketch where he interviews his Ex from a high table to assert power and shows exactly why it's important to have an eye to eye setup.

[@minsterhill]

Jerry with Larry on Curb would set the world free!

[@cgonzalezr]

The fact that they not had the "The Sea was angry" speach until the night before fact blows my mind

[@ReeBPM]

Jerrys memory is incredible

[@Liquidmetal14]

I hope this movie is a hit. There's just such a good vibe about this and unhinged fun of the pop tart wars. Seinfeld just had this touch about him. He's a valuable person in comedy and creativity.

[@zeissofficial]

"i wasnt sure people were connecting with it", what? it was outstanding. A perfect representation of the talk show people want and need. Comforting, soothing, funny, light hearted, and a clear depiction of the even exchange between peers.

[@Tommasini9]

Best Seinfeld episode ever: The Airport Pickup.

[@VincentAgostino-gy6hr]

It’s not just TV.. Jason is a well respected journeyman theatre actor.. that’s the training that allows him to get that speech

[@sheldons6562]

Seinfeld is the greatest show ever. Till this day I can watch any episode anytime to this day and I still laugh. My kids think I’m crazy. Lol. But like you said every day I use a line to this day everyday.

[@JGKrump]

If Seinfeld thinks the height discrepancy is large on this set, love to hear his thoughts about Colin Cowherd''s set.

[@jimmyt7233]

Bill Burr calling it Colin's "big dumb desk" to his face always killed me

[@kendallandrews8691]

Yeah it is so weird colins desk

[@Gawain7826]

What a great great conversation!!! So glad we have formats outside of the radio / TV universe that allow you to do long form stuff like this!

[@gardenlover9663]

Rich is the perfect Yes, and Man. Another fantastic interview

[@marge201]

It's GOLD, Jerry, GOLD!!! And the hand movements with "you can TAKE a reservation. . ." too funny!

[@billwayzata]

I can't adequately express how cool that was to listen to Seinfeld's explanations and thought process.

[@timking-iy9jw]

The way he handled the telemarketer was hilarious. First episode I ever saw, I tuned in right at the "double dip" scene. 2024....& that shows still relevant.....& the funniest ever.

[@JerryEngemann]

This was awesome!!!

[@WCoolidge45]

This was great ! Love jerry was my childhood tv . Also much appreciate Rich. Very calming sports voice i agree

[@RobertoSiffredi-xy1nc]

I've watched 'Unfrosted' twice already. Congratulations Seinfeld on your directorial debut. The script, cast and direction were top-notch. It's doubtful that Gen Z'ers will understand or even want to understand all the cultural references, but 'Unfrosted' was G-r-r-r-r-e-e-e-a-a-a-t-t-t-t-t!

[@adamcoe]

this and the neal brennan interview are some of the most absolute solid gold Seinfeld moments on record. absolutely excellent and Rich Eisen continues to make himself distinct as not only a great sports guy but just an excellent interviewer in general who takes a genuine interest in his guests.

My two favorite lines. "It's like the sun. You take a peak and look away". And "I don't think we should see each other anymore. OKAY"!!! "I'm even Steven".

[@handymatt1970]

His glasses are from Malaysia. He's slowly turning into Mr. Lipman.

[@cg5471]

Best interview yet. Can tell he likes Rich giving up ths gems!

[@chuckwilson8006]

"And this offends you as a Jewish person?" "It offends me as a comedian!" -- Easily a Top 5 line in the series.

[@belak1551]

Without question! His delivery never fails to make me laugh. I remember when I first seen that episode his response totally caught me off guard.

[@PraetorRykard666]

I was really waiting this whole video for Rich to explain to Jerry that most of his guests are athletes so Rich seating himself a foot higher let's him look like he sees eye to eye with them.

[@matlocksd]

Love this episode!

[@zenarcher9633]

So many great comedians in one movie. And Amy Schumer.

[@ARB826]

Jerry Seinfeld at the Chicago Theater was the hardest I’ve ever laughed, which surprised me because as much as his TV show was my favorite, I never thought his standup would be so good live. Absolutely killed. Saw Maniscalco a few days earlier - who was amazing and is clearly amazingly hilarious (plus I’m Italian - yet Jerry actually killed even harder.

[@vinnyp3656]

“The jerk store called, they’re running out of you” is the best line of all time.

[@chriswiggins6909]

I loved every bit of that conversation! "But you're a cashier!"

I could listen to his interviews all day. The man is hilarious.

[@coyote8198]

I discoverd in the 1990's with a Satalite reciever I found Seinfeld when it got uploaded to the network I watched the first show and rest of them without comercials. Those were the days when you could watch TV with watching anything without comercials without skipping them.
