@Tim said in The hot takes and unpopular opinions:
Louis CK is the worst podcast guest. Boring, repetitive, condescending idiot.
I don't find Louis CK funny at all and found him creepy on Parks and Rep - years before his actual creepiness was known.
@Catogrande
On Burr, I think he's great, he's actually pretty subversive. -

Like a lot of those guys, it was different in the old O&A days. He was still a twat but the Rumsfeld interview or talking with Partice about racial slurs are classics

most comedians are pretty hit and miss....BIll Burr, Tim Jeffries, Dave Chappell, Ricky Gervais, Jimmy Carr etc all have some great moments mixed with some not funny stuff.
I've never seen any of Louis CK (had to google him to see who he was in Parks & Rec)

I like Bill Burr and Dave Chappelle...

@Catogrande said in The hot takes and unpopular opinions:
Bill Burr isn’t actually very funny.
Mostly just a screaming ginga.
Not much funny about that. -
@Tim said in The hot takes and unpopular opinions:
Most standup is awful, and most old comedians are abysmally unfunny. Old guys banging on about their boring hobby horse.
I think this is very accurate. It’s probably a good thing Eddie Murphy essentially quit after the hilarity of Raw and Delerious and got into movies.
Another Ricky Gervais special with him going on about he just doesn’t give a fuck gets tired really quickly.
…..and with the exception of Billy T James NZ comedians aren’t funny to start with.

The amount of cash Ricky and Bill roll around in, I reckon they're probably doing something right.
I like having Frank as the guy rivalling nepia for hates fun.
@Frank wins easy, hates Shrinking and Bill Burr.

I'm looking forward to his review of Colin from Accounts

Sum 41 are vastly underrated. Proper punk that managed to crossover to mainstream.
Love em

A couple of mates are huge fans. I have never really been one.
I appreciate them, like some tunes but I agree that they have been pretty bland for decades.
I saw them at Hyde park last year. Pixies supported and were far better than PJ. (I would say that as they are my fave band)
PJ should have played a career defining set instead they played lots of stuff that made me leave early and my 2 mates struggling to stay interested

Saw them live with my son here about 5 months ago - they opened for Offspring and were WAY better
Gotta Get away is a banger that holds up with the best of any groups of that era but I never quite liked them as much as other bands overall.
Never a fan of Sum 41

I was chatting to them afterwards and they said the same about you so I guess you’re even?
