"Calm down man don't be racist..." but yeah that was a funny little throw away comment.

Watched again and again.

[@oxygenlung]

Me too

[@JJhugganstuff]

Man I wish these were still going!!

[@SquareNoggin]

Yeah, I'm a big fan of I4H for years and years and it sucks to think what could have been.

I remember when this episode was new. It was my first time listening to i4h and I was immediately hooked.

lapkus is adorable but also a scary evil genius. her characters on CBB are only rivaled by PFT's, admonian's and of course andy daly's.

This show is amazing. Pleaseeeee give us more we love you all

[@shapeless779]

"I'm Ho Ho! HO HO! Bleeehhh!"

[@EricWBurton]

An especially hilarious episode.

[@porkfriedrice1530]

I wish Scott would allow more video podcasts. I was a huuuuuge fan of this show and CBB but I watch a lot of vid podcasts lately. I just don’t listen to many podcasts anymore. And they’re still funny when I do listen. But the video is so much better to see their reactions. Cmon Scott!!!

[@Singinghorn90]

Love seeing Ben as the straight man.

[@BabyFaceBren]

Careful! I complimented Andy Samberg (in comments for the SNL "bidet" sketch) on being a great straight man and some moron told me off for referring to heterosexual dudes as "straight" because it implies gay men are "bent", WTF?

[@KenLawton_durbnpoisn]

The Coke bottle girl... That actually had me laughing like an idiot.

[@johannesgh90]

The song at the one hour mark is from The Wall by Pink Floyd, in case anyone's still wondering.

[@MaxMackan]

I love it when Mr. Schwartz is on I4H, since he and Besser always go at each other in a friendly antagonistic way. Such good chemistry and great scenes from their banter.

[@mamawillis31]

FANTASTIC group. Fantastic.

[@toddfoster8705]

Great to see MAtt Besser with a Weakerthans T-shirt!! That guy knows cool music.

Lauren is a 9 on looks alone. Add her personality and comedy she is a 23. She is the Michael Jordan of people. I'm not only a fan of Lapkus, I love Tracy Rearden as well. So I must Love her twice as much

Man this got so weird at the end. And yet it was still great.

[@mathieuforcier8617]

How about that Weakthans t-shirt though!

[@Transmedal2]

how come i cant find any improve for humans on youtube that's newer and not 10 years old???

[@Snobviously]

Video production costs money. Earwolf has made huge cuts post pandemic. At this point there aren't even 2 audio engineers on the payroll, so video is definitely not on the cards.

[@Transmedal2]

@@Snobviously well perhaps one day. Every phone has cameras on them. And basically everyone has phones. Just mount a phone on a tripod and press record. Then upload to KZbin. That costs zero dollars. If your worried about editing quality, don't be. At least it would be something other than nothing. Phones have microphones too lol. Easy as that

[@spiderholerecords4981]

1st glance, thought Kevin Smith was in the house.

[@Antwonability]

I bet you he could sing like johnny K. sampson too!

[@redpandachannel4534]

I LOVE BEN SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@johnszczerba9979]

The thing that mapper said about Scott from comedy bang bang is so true. I stopped listening years ago but he kept doing that annoying thing so much it had to be on purpose like it was funny...it wasn't it was simply annoying

[@ii121]

This isn't Doug Loves Movies.

[@keepthesockson]

That's a Weakerthans shirt? Matt just got 70% cooler.

[@iconoclast137]

"no, we live in a nice neighborhood, so we get a lot of mean old rich white people who are very entitled"

[@casonwoody]

I've never seen an improv session with Horatio where he didn't just pull the ebrake and completely derail everything. Am I missing something with him? I must be because he's in quite a few improv videos.

[@TiqueO6]

Well he seems to have implied that he’s quit drinking so maybe he doesn’t have to be “king baby” as much.

[@captscurlock]

[@subliteral1380]

Love these guys, but that kid's "I love you" video made me cringe so hard that I was squirming in my seat. It's bad enough after a few sentences, but he just goes on and ON. That's got to be one of the most horrifying things I've ever seen online.

Ben at 34:23

[@12345678abracadabra]

First caller is so trying hard to be edgy and cool. So douchey. I don't think his story is real

[@FeroxFury]

damn ben and lauren are the only ones attempting anything resembling humour here

[@consterned]

these people get up in the morning and go to a studio and do this? i guess i'm enjoying it...

[@polko59]

+Edward Gagnon Besser's the founder of UCB theater, the most important and prolific improv school + venue in the world, and his guests are improv performers who each at the very least have their own shows at UCB, and most of them work in comedy quite a bit. This is just a free podcast Besser hosts, and I doubt it's ever recorded in the morning.

[@consterned]

+Bigby Wolf sure :-)

[@frightenedsoul]

Edward Gagnon the only incorrect thing he said is that it’s never recorded in the morning. I’m pretty sure it is recorded in the mornings occasionally. You look like a fool.

[@consterned]

@@frightenedsoul I think they were talking about morning, it was the first time I heard an improv show, I was just looking for Lauren, I enjoy her on Comedy Bang Bang...thanks for helping ne find this, I had lost track of it...ill see if I like it better now

[@frightenedsoul]

Edward Gagnon honestly this episode was just okay. Just finished it. Horatio was kind of “off” the whole time. Ben was hilarious though. Check out The Andy Daly Podcast Pilot Project too!

[@lilstonerdiva5235]

ugh this energy is alllll wrong

[@hiddenfire65]

Lapkus is funny, and cute. Don't mind looking at her for a while.

Let me explain. This was made 3 years ago when I was a retard

[@frightenedsoul]

Jacob Harris lol glad you enjoy him now

[@tommytwobrews]

This is boring af

[@MarioQuezada]

Wow.. These two actually managed to make Ben and Lauren UNfunny.. Quite a feat. Full of cringe.. Pretty hard to watch.

[@goddamnslippers]

lauren is one of the best guests on improv4humans and CBB. likewise for benny schwazz. i'm sorry your sense of humor bad.

[@MarioQuezada]

andy .grant maybe you missed my point. Benny and Lauren are my fav funny people. There was no mojo here

[@Chugins]

Mario I cringe the most at Ben Schwartz. But still, not my favourite episode regardless.

[@bradmodd7856]

Matt Besser seems uncomfortable in a room surrounded by funny people

[@dingo535]

Man, I love this show but Jesus Ben Schwartz is actively unfunny

[@non_brewed_condiment]

Such a bad take lmao

[@vulgarfvckr6148]

that sick Weakerthans shirt makes me want new Weakerthans music and new I4H on Earwolf/VPN
