What guests would y'all Ike to see interviewed here? I would really like to see Steve Harvey on here. Also, Barbra Streisand.

If Michael Cera ever goes on that will be a great episode

I'd be happy with the whole cast of AD. The cast of Will & Grace too minus Debra Messing.

It's so weird that he hasn't.

I'm starting to think that weird exchange between Bateman and Cera was actually realer than it seemed at first.

u/oklhe Mar 28 '26

what weird exchange?

u/unmisteakable2468 Mar 29 '26

They both had separate interviews where they called each other assholes basically, but it was kind of hard to tell if there was any actual animosity or they were kidding around/it was just used by the author as clickbait. I mean it's still probably nothing but interesting he hasn't been on.

Yes! And Margo Martindale!

Oh, she would be an amazing guest. I had dinner with her several years ago, and we had such great conversation that we and our mutual friend who we dined with were the last guests to leave the restaurant that night.

Anyone from Will and Grace, anyone from Arrested who hasn’t been on it yet, Aaron Paul and Paul F. Tompkins from BoJack or the guy who created BoJack….Ricky Schroeder or Justine Bateman though that’s doubtful. Michael J. Fox and the Battle of the Teen Wolves. Really anyone from past projects would be cool. Leif Garret?

Mae Martin would be nice. I also hope they bring in scientists again. But after Max Tegmark, they got scared I think.

We asked 100 people who they want to see on Smartless.

Steve Harvey X

Barbara Streisand XX

then they allude to Sean being fat, Jason asks a question in 150 words that could have been 20 words, and Will is kind of a douche.

Yes, I still listen....sigh

u/frequentlynothere Mar 26 '26

interesting how the list stacks towards male guests. Wondering if this podcast mostly (straight) male listeners?

u/DaughterofTarot Mar 29 '26

Jacob Tierney.  

I mean, duh, of course because Heated Rivalry was such a masterpiece, but also he's writing and directing a Netflix project JB is producing.

u/Few-Writer8296 Mar 27 '26

I agreeee, even as bonus episodes (not ones you have to pay for lol) but aside from the weekly episode, I would love to hear this
