Saw Simon on Neil Brennan's Blocks. Looking forward to watching this chat!

[@chaselepard]

Thank you Pete for interviewing Simon! Loved his Blocks interview and thought he needs to do more podcasts because he's hilarious and fascinating. (Hey Joe)

I’m goons say it. 2 Simpsons cast members, Hank Azaria and Yeardley Smith, once starred on a live action version of “Inside out”.

Love the mention of some great horror authors! I've just started dipping my toe into Jackson and Matheson (not literally), and I've enjoyed both of their haunted house stories, Jackson's more so

Petes show is basically To Tell The Truth

"Protest too much" is from Hamlet!

Hey Pete, Just wanted to say I love your work. All of your stand-up, the pod, Crashing and even the late night show. Thanks for everything you do. You make life better for me. I hope I can see you live sometime.

Simon rulz. Glad to see him doing promotion. If you haven’t read his stuff, do yourself self a favor. Kinda remarkable shit. Jerry stahl wrote about working on alf during his doping days. There’s plenty of other things to look into there that are wild.

You bring up Bret Easton Ellis and Less Than Zero and suddenly start hearing a chainsaw in the distance...that's hella ominous

McDonald's is 100% Disney! Burger King is pro wrestling 🤣

Final fight? Like the Ps 1 side scroller a la double dragon?

Man. I have spent a ton of time with this podcast. I think at least 400 eps. Dude needs to get better at not interrupting his guest. It's like nails on a chalkboard.
