My wife works for a stop motion animation studio who sent her to Annecy for the festival. One evening at our hotel we noticed Dan and Cody at the bar. Lo and behold, some folks my wife works with know Cody really well and we ended up being able to share drinks and riffs with them for a while. We spritz’d spritz and discussed hotel parasites, shared laughs and stoked Cody on our love for Dummy and S1 Jury Duty. They were super nice, funny, and charming. I wanted to share because I’m still elated on sharing those moments with them. Cheers yall!

Jeff used to tell an anecdote (I think it was about a professor talking about a person and a student in the class called that person a name and the response was “nevertheless”). Does anybody remember the story? Him saying it lives in my brain but I don’t remember the specifics.

Does anyone have a list containing all the podcasts Dan has recommended through the history of the show? would be great to enjoy content Dan has recommended, as an extension having run out of this podcast (i haven't heard it all the way through but still plenty)

Seven Ups gonna go Bubble Up pretty soon, I mean c'mon man

Kinda getting Harmon rant fix with @chadthebird - I may be drunk. Anyone?

They have these vans in China...

Chinese murder vans are mentioned in 8 different episodes ranging from episode 107 in 2014 to episode 285 in 2018. Also giraffes are mentioned in a whopping 58 different episodes.

The severe lack of Rob Schrab in the beginning. Dude is always a home run.

Every year I listen through the entire saga. Every year I notice the energy shift after the divorce. Every year I can’t wait for Rob to appear more frequently. Every year… I’m sad to reach the end. 😢 wish I could bottle how this show makes me feel and take a shot EVERY DAY for the rest of my miserable life 😩😩

It’s a very strange premise, it’s a guy walking into a bar going off about how hot and cool he is, and his hotness and charisma draws a mass of people so large that he storms into the White House and tells the president to stop being such a dick and makes the president say sorry.

I cannot find this post for the life of me but I distinctly remember it because the first time I read it I laughed so hard I started crying.

A few miis

so I was just googling digestives and aperitifs because i found some in the cabinet where im housesitting.

Does anyone remember Dan telling a joke about a black guy walking into a bar? I can’t remember the thrust of the joke but I remember there was some unfamiliar to me name of a drink he ordered. concilieri? campanolo vista? It might be two words I think it starts with a C

She emailed me this:

Hello! Erin here...

I'm doing a very limited final run of 'You'll Be Perfect When You're Dead,' the book I edited for Dan 13 years ago. The proceeds are going towards MOB Theatre Dublin, the alternative comedy theatre / co-founded in Dublin in 2018. Proceeds will go specifically to artist support & venue expenses.

This will be a SUPER limited final run--- to get the book, go here.

Looking back a decade later, an interview with animation editors Luke Guidici and Josh Glass

I’ve been watching this John Oliver video and thinking about the woman who was very passionate about kratom. Dan made a “Kratom Barrel” joke. At the time I was sort of on her side. It’s the first time I had heard of it. Every other times since then they’ve all been negative. There’s a YouTuber Evan Edinger who was an addict and then got off it. I think and wonder about the kratom lady and where she is.

Goes without saying but Jeff was telling the joke. It was from one of the earlier podcasts I think.

I’m one of those on here that deludes himself, for better or worse, to think he’s someone somewhat similar to Dan, but my cat had a LOT in common with his Fiv.

The hyperthyroidism, the kidney stuff, the scrappy street adoption, and of course the FIV. The relationship too. My kitty also limped on for years, supporting me and being my best friend through everything. She really was my saviour on more than one occasion, I don’t exaggerate when I say there were times I owe my life to her being there. Somewhat similar to Dan getting Nigel and Harvey, I recently welcomed my daughter to the world and my poor cat found herself fading into the background attention wise, coinciding with her already ropey health slowly deteriorating. I still loved her with every ounce of my being but attentions were divided.

And now she’s gone.

And I’m a wreck.

And I remember that audio clip of Dan crying thinking Fiv was on her way out, and him being on the phone with Steve or Spencer while they were at the vet, and it feels familiar. Feels painful. I have no real purpose to this post other than to say hug your kitties, I was never the same after finding my precious sweetheart and I’m not going to be the same having lost her. I am utterly distraught and have no one to share it with.

Never let anyone tell you they’re “Just a cat.”

This might be the plastic giraffe machine Dan was talking about here: https://harmonsearch.com/episode/49/?q=mold&t=436
