[@RyunWould]

This is the most flawless and fluid bullshittery I have ever heard come off the cuff and is truly a master class in the premise of "yes and".

[@TheGreatKrystoff]

I knew to expect it, but each episode of this podcast has had such a high percentage of full commit with no winking on bits that I think it's the only time I've ever enjoyed being gaslit

[@LIONHEART0666]

Seriously 😂

[@tempsitch5632]

You don’t know what “gaslighting” is.

[@TheGreatKrystoff]

@@tempsitch5632 Okay captain literal, it was a joke

[@coffin7904]

​@@tempsitch5632chill out 😎

[@aaronyouell680]

“Started making wagons in 1995” got me

[@danielleuhbelle]

This is without a doubt one of the most incredible displays of improv comedy humanity will ever witness. This podcast is a gift how do we replace evening news with this?

[@ash8298]

You need to leave your house more.

[@GatherYukon]

I was like "I don't know this person I'll listen to a couple minutes" to laughing so hard I'm waking up my family.

[@vanillaGreen1]

seriously lmao

[@antoniasteins3131]

She is just the funniest her book Sex Island was so funny I couldn’t listen to the audiobook on walks bcs I had to laugh so hard

[@ericonsocial]

Jo is one of the best improvisers on earth, so it makes me excited to hear that this is so many people’s first experience with her.

[@jarrodcornelius6237]

I would try and muffle your out bursts. mom and step dad are this close to sending you to an apartment that he will pay for. This close.

[@secondcitywolverine]

I love that neither of you break. The commitment is inspiring.

[@ash8298]

Why would they break? Nothing either one of them say is funny.

[@LoGoatPictures]

This is the greatest back and forth I have ever heard between two folks that barely show their hands. These two are so brilliantly fast. Anyone that put time into creating this should be proud. Amazing work to all involved. What a goddamn powerhouse of humour. ;) “You were kinda rollin’ the dice on the egg.”

[@louieo.blevinsmusic4197]

Was listening to this in the background and felt my brain melting. lol.

[@roland1912]

This is like watching two NPCs having a conversation in a Bethesda game, after the quest is broken due to glitches and bad programming lol. Wouldn't have it any other way!

[@pearljammies]

Jo is my favorite comedian. What a treat!

[@pattieparkhurst]

I can listen to this episode over and over. I need more Jo!

[@llortduck]

i love the honesty and openness in this interview

[@phlnspace]

I miss my old Firestone wagon. That first model was a real high-quality prairie schooner. Wagons!! Hoooo!!

[@alimoche32]

Hard to say she is about to cry or laught ❤

[@tekkaman-blade]

Sweet Caroline! That final plug for Jo's new show brought me to literal tears! I'm going to need to recover now. Thanks, David!

[@professorhazard]

When this began, I did not know who Jo Firestone was. When it was over, I still did not know, but now I love her I guess.

[@chim-choo-ree]

Watch "Joe Pera Talks with You".

[@professorhazard]

@@chim-choo-ree I have long considered doing so, thanks!

[@dominiceddy5947]

I love you, David! Your podcast brings me so much joy. Im 38. I've been a huge fan of yours since i was 15. 🤝

[@DstrtdMnd]

The purpose of the tiny pockets being to protect their fingernails is brilliant

[@n1ntar1man]

Growing up with David and now a huge fan of Jo this had me absolutely rolling with delight. So good!

[@dr_redbanRL]

Get Tim Heidecker on please

[@keithmccullough7215]

How neither one of you broke and kept going is beyond me…. I needed this. Thank you.

[@bennagem2965]

How ironic is it that the best podcast host (David) JUST started a podcast? Crazy.

[@swaslaukinonome]

I understand they probably work hard at it for many years as comedians, but there's something really casual about the way these two crack me up. 😂 stay weird, please

[@dr_redbanRL]

Jo is adorable. Love her work and she just seems like a good person

[@zacharybryan7708]

She's funny, although I do get the impression the inside of her mouth is cold

[@dr_redbanRL]

@@zacharybryan7708 thats true

[@MrLoulevy]

Jo Firestone. Total commitment to character

[@cliffordb6]

Jo Firestone is incredible.

[@roahboah]

Committing early and deep to the wagon bit.....kudos

[@ronaldyodersr]

David, I understand from your program that Missouri is the "Show-me State", but did you know that Tennessee is consider the "Sho-ney State", with more Shoney's locations than any other state in the unions! Visit a Shoney today, and get a loose meat sandwich! Thank you David for another excellent and informative podcast experience!

[@iwanebbing2642]

Thanks for the upload. It's always like having a fever dream. But minus the sweat.

[@omad777]

Amazing from beginning to end.

[@daniellee1395]

This was my favorite episode 😂😂😂 I love the dry humor !!!!!!! So good , thank you for making my day 💞

[@Ultratoast01]

Great to hear your 'behind the screaming' stories about Big Break - which was called Breaking Bad in the UK because the name Big Break was already taken by a show about 8 ball pool.

[@poopjones2]

This is my fav one so far 😂

[@madseason1989]

So stoked to have a David cross podcast to listen to now

[@AltusNoumena]

God I love this podcast

[@Sushiyoda]

“We can send a man to mars in the movies”…😂

[@efil4saaggin]

First time hearing of Jo and I really enjoyed listening to you guys talk from the get go.

[@CannedCorm]

As someone who lives an hour away from St. Albans, 31:27 caught me off guard and I have no idea what he is talking about LMAO

[@yohojones]

Love the podcast David.

[@rootvalue]

This the best improv I’ve ever seen in my life. I guess that also makes it the best podcast too, but I feel like I should have paid for this standup set. Fucking fluid. Thank you.

[@TB86000]

Delightful as hell you two.

[@dedododo48]

Absolutly Brilliant.

[@jonaskromwell4464]

This is absolutely hilarious! It's impossible to tell where fact ends and fiction begins! I can't stop laughing at this!!! The awkwardness is absolute!!

[@trainspotter360]

This is the best podcast, and thing, ever.

[@BenjaminBunnyGlaser]

Loving the podcast! Jo is so funny. Shout out to Emma and Jake and Amir at Headgum. Over the moon we're almost to Christian New Year's 2024 and neither Elon, Jeff, nor Branson have blown it up yet!

[@milesntrane]

Yea. Padres weren't around in 1967. Good instincts, Big Dave.

[@ericonsocial]

This is Jo Jo Glass erasure. I just checked Baseball Man Database, and Padres were definitely around in 67.

[@josephvolk6243]

This is a unique dynamic between two people each po 31:39 31:39 😅😊ssessing a broad based inventory of common knowledge and combine it with in-depth, technical insight on esoteric but practical and complex issues and present it in a tight little package that anyone with an open mind can put into practice daily life sithations.

[@sanjayroberts5989]

Damn...Took me a moment or two...Masterclass!

[@sarahchoate6032]

Roseanne owned a loose meat sandwich diner in her show, maybe that’s where you’ve heard of it 😂

[@obsurdusername]

LOL I was scrolling through the comments bc I thought the exact same! Fair dinkum!

[@jonathangarmuth8975]

I survived the 1995 wood virus

[@DJMDduncan]

Don’t let David fool ya. He loves St. Louis. He saw a picture of the world’s largest chess piece at the airport. Fascinating.

[@MMMarmaalade]

😂 Every episode is 👏👏 thanks David Cross and Co.

[@gyishin]

My god it's too damn early in the morning to laugh this hard. I'm already exhausted.

[@hotsaucejunior4]

jo is the freaking BEST

[@johnt364]

Nobody broke. Good job! Very funny!

[@EthanAnthony907]

first viewer here David, huge fan for like 30 years man. When adding up how many times youve made me laugh out loud, youre up there with George Carlin and Bernie Mac.

So moving and deep, I had to call my therapist twice, before the podcast ended.

[@H-Vox]

Thanks for introducing me to Jo

[@Pharizer]

David almost had her at 30:59 :DD

[@RyanDaniels47]

My goodness, this is hilarious

[@brettv4060]

He should rebrand the podcast to “banal minutiae” and every episode is this amazing playful thing . Hope a fan of his also gets the reference

[@derpderp2559]

man these two have excellent chemistry. where's the sketch show??

Jo is fun

I can't believe they both missed "Dressed and Distressed".

Holy Shit. That was awesome

This is like B.S. ASMR and I love it.

There is something about this podcast that is really great, just can’t put my finger on it.

Why does this make me want a Slice?

Wait wait... don't yell at me!

[@djeurosham]

Slice is in the house!

[@ShelleyD1]

Screaming out for someone to google something had me cracking up, keep doing you Dave

[@uncletom356]

"Glass comma JoJo!" is too good. Parodies JRE (and the form) so easily and dismissively. I've never heard of Jo, but damn it does she play well off of Dave. One of the best "sketch pods" I've heard/seen in quite some time -- aside, obviously, from Odenkirk's episode. Can't dethrone the Bob/David kingdom, although this was [chef's kiss]. Exclaiming "conversations are like waffles" is the best non-sequitur of 2024! (I'm aware it's still 2023, but don't let the facts get in the way of a preposterous story/joke.)

[@jaydock1]

That's a real st. Louis way of eating your dinner

[@gimpscam9976]

Does this mean we will get a jo pera pod?
