there is always money in the banana stand

[@pavanatanaya]

Michael seems like such a kind guy. Spending time with the affected elderly is a sure sign .

[@cargotrailerkenny]

Especially one as affected by age and family as David Cross

[@pavanatanaya]

None of us are the spry upstarts we once were. Its a fine line between Prospect and Suspect. We could do a GoFundMe for some grooming supplies for Dave. I mean he's a cool Dave, but he's no Letterman.@@cargotrailerkenny

[@christianscacchetti9178]

Must’ve been why he married someone 3 generations younger 😅

[@Limposium]

And the fake beard makes him almost look like a grown-up.

[@resevil2396]

​@christianscacchetti9178 in fairness there cant be many women his age who are willing to have kids. Hes almost 60 so his kid was born when he was like 51.

[@TheMattsterling]

Finally a podcast about trains and Brooklyn birthday locations.

I could listen to David yell for Emma to google something for hours. 😂😂😂❤

[@mac102483]

Lol he said it right after I read your comment

[@crystinamarie1]

I started cracking up with that too 😆

[@gordons-alive4940]

I thought they would do that when they were talking about Bears. Seemed like they were doing a bit making fun of Rogan at first. Ha ha.

[@itmeurdad]

EMMAA!! GOOGLE uhh look up ... Something. ... Google for hours something for hours

[@rhymeswfamous]

I want a season 1 supercut as soon as they can put it together

[@KipArmadillo]

It's always a joy to see Cera turn up in anything. Black Mirror, Barbie, etc. His Between Two Ferns is legendary and Youth In Revolt was hilarious.

[@SolarAdrift]

You should see Dream Scenario if you haven't. He has a great small role in that

[@stonewall286]

Twin Peaks was great too

[@productdesign9626]

@@SolarAdrift was about to mention that. He can pull off that soulless, buzzword-spewing capitalist surprisingly well

[@Sektion9]

I dont remember him in Black Mirror.

[@KipArmadillo]

[@maninchair6648]

Family love Michael!

[@bam1742]

My family not so much

[@Yourmission9]

This podcast is funny, but the best part of every episode is spending the first 19 minutes discussing where to sit and microphone placement then the subsequent “Wait have we started yet?”

[@williambartholmey5946]

Different strokes I guess---I was just thinking this was the perfect blend of very short bits of silliness sprinkled into a natural, funny conversation. The extended bits are too much for me.

[@michellen.collins9362]

I feel like I was seated next to two of my favorite entertainers in a cozy, intimate restaurant and was able to overhear their conversation over dinner. They touched on so many things I love (from Russian literature to Arrested Development) but in an organic unfolding. This podcast is like no other and that’s why I love it! Thanks David and Michael!

[@FlatThumb]

We all need more Michael Cera in our lives.

[@JeffSchall]

I was confused at first - but find it interesting that Cera's kid is Arlo, and Cross' kid is Marlo. Wouldn't it be funny if all the Arrested Development cast had kids with names that rhyme?

[@zacharybryan7708]

Carlo, Warlo, Barlow, and maybe a Greg for fun

[@mehpeh2273]

​@@zacharybryan7708i don't care for Greg

[@OGRE_HATES_NERDS]

or what if every actor in hollywood had to do it

[@joelmatthys7742]

It's not a perfect rhyme but at least one should be named Hermano.

[@marsuylama]

Thank you! I thought I wasn't hearing it right. Such a funny coincidence

[@crispyrobot77]

Some of the people who have posted comments do NOT understand that "Senses Working Overtime" is NOT an INTERVIEW between Host and Subject, but is INSTEAD, a CONVERSATION between David and his some of his good friends. HUGE difference.

[@KristinLove333]

And the conversation can turn into playful performative riffing, which I like.

[@Martin0]

Absolutely!!

[@kristenwood6435]

Awe, nice to see Michael! He’s a good one. I went to high school with him in Ontario and can confirm his story about his high school ex (Bianca). I was her best friend and also went through heartbreak with her 🙃

[@JavInDaUSA]

No way thats insane!!

[@The-Carrot]

tell MORE

[@18jk]

the meet and greet in Sac was one of the best things ever for my brother Dennis and I. Both huge huge fans of Bob, Dave, the whole Mr Show cast, etc. it's one of the last photos of us together. love you Den. thanks Dave.

[@_chipchip]

“That’s why books are better than movies” line was gold

[@metal.mover23]

I was just talking to my friend group about this it is soul crushing in the moment but then as time goes on you eventually get over it and it becomes like a running joke of how crush you were by young love... im glad that im not the only one in the world who has been thru that

[@iwantmytvnow]

I love that cera flipped this convo onto David and David just eats it up.

[@maxmeier532]

to sum this podcast up. Both David and Michael can read, they enjoy doing it and talking about it.

[@MoSco5000]

I totally spaced that these two worked together on one of my favorite shows.

[@Peptite]

What makes these kinds of dare I call them "interviews", when it's really just two old friends/co-workers getting reacquainted delightful is the branching tangents that start to happen. It reminds me of when I get together with a couple of friends in particular after a long time apart. It almost becomes a contest of how many layers can we branch off subject and successfully bring it right back.. It can get quite madcap. But, we laugh, and that's ultimately what we really enjoy: The laughing. And each other's company. And the tea.

[@f.austin]

this is a great conversation - one of the best. definitely need part two… hahaha - thanks for sharing!

[@ThatOldGrey]

Absolutely need an episode with Russ Tamblyn!

[@lovetrioni]

I'm so glad David is a Community fan. Advanced D&D is a brilliant episode

[@dannygutierrez3105]

Great job David. Really love hearing this while I'm at work.

[@IRISH4LIFE5151]

Makes me very happy to see these two together. This pod made me like Michael Cera even more.

[@BenjaminBunnyGlaser]

I enjoyed this convo. I also really liked Rob Delaney. I wasnt super familiar with him and I appreciate the conversational vibe. Love.

[@crystinamarie1]

Great episode! Can really see the chemistry between these two and good to see Michael Cera. Darn, wanted to hear the Charlyne Yi story. Welp, maybe next time 😊

[@deengew]

Love how you got her name wrong, that definitely checks out

[@Humboldtcheese]

I literally love the fact I came across this and I was like, "omg thats the guy evil from alvin and the chipmunks, holy shit hes actually smart!" lol

[@CapSquad]

I always think it's funny hearing the city of Shreveport pop up in conversation around actors or comedians. I've spent a lot of my life there and can't imagine being in a movie theater watching one of my all time favorite movies while Michael Cera and David Cross are in the audience. I do know a lot of movies were being made at the time there, so catching celebrities around wasn't too crazy. can't say the same now

[@kurir000]

Rick Glassman sent me here. Superb.

[@andrewcunningham5622]

Michael Ceras reflection in the trophy on the shelf there is brilliant David. Brilliant. You are a visionary

I needed this! I have a woman I love that is too young for me, me being 57, her being 43. I know, old people. It never ends though! She came out of nowhere after a decade of friendship and love and shredded me! ;) Never tell them they own your heart! They cannot help but murder you! ;)

[@bfgivmfith]

I protect my heart, and do not let my guard down easily. I'd do it again though. :)

Crazy timing. I watched YEAR ONE last night, and I find it hilarious, and both of them are great. Rip Ramis

[@sebp400]

I was going to watch it for the first time but the reviews are so bad.

[@WalkbetwixtWorlds]

@@sebp400 Well, comedy is subjective, but the track record states biblical comedies never seem to fair very well critically, but we the audience feel it a fair jest.

[@DmRofAtoZ]

@@sebp400: disregard those damn reviews. i've probably watched all or most of it at least three times and it's uniquely wonderful. the David Cross and Paul Rudd scene as Cain and Abel is particularly a stand out.

16:34 - 16:37 "Isn't there one with a horse?" Michael may have been thinking of Béla Tarr's _The Turin Horse_ , good film.

[@Charlie_Martin_]

Amazing!

[@fatsuperfly]

Love David, his comedy got me through high school, and he’s changed. He reminds me of my older cousin. They are older uncle kind of things ,but they are hilarious. They would play movies on projecting screen. It hits a lil harder.

[@jamesdelcol3701]

This was the funniest one so far. Bob Odenkirk was great chemistry, but this has got a hilarious, sarcastic vibe. 🤣

[@CryztlShots]

you gotta get T. Amato (formerly Tim Heidecker) on this podcast

[@andrewlorenzlong]

The deep dive into how they set up Little Danson Man alone would be worth it

[@SwazAttack]

Sorry, but us Greggheads want Gregg Turkington to be there just in case they need movie expertise.
