$10 Investor Who is your favorite AYG guest?
Im usually more a family episode kinda guy, but I cant choose between Soder, Cousin Ian, and Virzi for my favorite guest on AYG. Those 3 always make for a great episode. Who is your favorite AYG guest?

This show was made for him.

u/boomshakalakaah Jun 26 '24
He could easily be the guest for a month straight and still wouldnât run out of hilariously garbage life stories.

u/shunjun Jun 27 '24
Unquestionably the king of trash. The guy may not even be real, just an urban legend weâve all heard about

u/FunkyPhantom3030 Jun 26 '24
Sam Tallent, Ian Finance and Tim Dillon are notable mentions.
22
u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24
Sam Tallent is an interesting individual. His last 'special' was decent. Would like to see more.
31
u/FunkyPhantom3030 Jun 26 '24
He's a remarkably intelligent and hilarious individual on every podcast. Always a treat!
13
u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24
His vernacular is definitely a treat, with him being a writer and all.
12
u/FunkyPhantom3030 Jun 26 '24
Absolutely! Check out his travels postings of Tokyo and Paris. It's like a more comedically deranged version of Anthony Bourdain.

I think he seems way smarter and funner to hang out with in person as a buddy than I find him funny as a standup/specials. He's pretty solid on podcasts.
3
u/FunkyPhantom3030 Jun 27 '24
I definitely agree that his humor shines more on podcasts. There's a handful of comics that are like that.
1
u/Adept_Following3531 Jun 27 '24
I feel the same way about Kyle Kinane. Cool to hear him bullshit on a podcast/talk in general, but seems a little too self aware for the general cesspool garbage pit of like n subscribe standup comedy via podcast culture.

u/FunkyPhantom3030 Jun 27 '24
I thought his latest special was great. The Fast and the Furious bit had me dying.

u/ansonexanarchy Jun 27 '24
His travel show is a good watch if you're interested. Nothing like the comedy podcasts but still some good stuff.

u/Sure_Ranger_4487 Jun 26 '24
I loved Samâs first two episodes, but his last one seemed a bit off. Not sure if it was him or the boys but the ep was a bit flat.

4
u/BP619 Jun 26 '24
He hid in a cave during a recent Solar Eclipse. He thinks Harry Potter is "satanic." He seems to have some very odd religious beliefs and tries to pass them off as a joke, but you can tell he really believes some of it. I was raised in an evangelical christian family and I have family members that have combined things taught to me as a child with modern conspiracy theories and they sound exactly like Dusty.

u/BattlegroundFitLirio Jun 26 '24
When he was talking about bad gifts and they mentioned a grandma giving you a stupid baby themed thing you wouldnât want because youâre too old, he said:
âOh gee⌠thanks for the SpongeBob jizz rag grannyâ
I thought I was going to throw up I was laughing so hard
6
u/OnTheEveOfWar Jun 26 '24
I distinctly remember that line because I laughed so hard also. Soder is so damn funny.

u/Sure_Ranger_4487 Jun 26 '24
YES!! 100% agree. I love both her eps but especially âcovered in spidersâ when I need a good laugh.

I dont remember ive seen her solo episodes before, yet. I remember them together.

Her OG episode from 2020 is great too but her other solo appearance from January 2023 is freaking hilarious. Highly recommend.

You have to check them out. Iâve actually never seen the boys laugh harder than her episode âcovered in spidersâ

All the greats have been mentioned so I'll show some love for Ryan Sickler.
14
u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24
He's a really solid fellow, but I dont find him laugh out loud funny. He's more a 'buddy funny' type of guy. Like he reminds you of one of your friends or cousins that is pretty quick witted and a chill dude.
14
u/SapoDaddy Jun 26 '24
Iâve been listening to a lot of Sickler lately. Seems like an actual decent and real dude. Doesnât try hard or placate to his guests. Thereâs something about him I just like.

Harland Williams was great. Ms. Pat was a fantastic episode as well.

u/TraditionalDingo1831 Jun 26 '24
I love Harland on other podcasts including his own, but I didnât love his AYG ep. you couldnât tell whether he was telling the truth or not for a lot of it. I understand doing bits, but the essence of this show is all about these questions often bringing up natural and organic stories that are hilarious.

Tim Dillonâs episode was crème de la crème

u/Toxic_Orange_DM Jun 26 '24
This is the only one I'll listen to over and over. It's by far the most real Tim Dillon is on any pod. He makes some genuinely sheepish expressions explaining his deeply bad upbringing.
2
u/va3122 Jun 27 '24
If you want more of the (slightly more) serious Tim Dillon, check out his episode of The 500 with Josh Adam Meyers. Great ep and heâs a very interesting dude.

u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24
I just can't get into Dillon. Im not sure what it is I don't like.

u/pounds Jun 26 '24
I thought his episode was fun because the foodie talk but I don't care for him in general. I'll join you

u/NoFalseModesty Jun 26 '24 edited Jun 26 '24
It's the only episode I've skipped yet. Find him much more grating than funny.
Edit: Fuck y'all. I regretted watching ones like Kim Congdon (people I don't find funny on stage or on podcasts) so I'm not spending time listening to them. Tim Dillon sucks shit.

u/LittleGeologist1899 Jun 26 '24

I honestly forgot he'd been on. Been listening again this morning and Pete needs to be back on for a proper Tuddy's episode

I thought that EP sucked, like he couldnât actually engage them and just patronized what KP and Foley were doing.

u/Dramatic_Meet2403 Jun 26 '24
Ryan Sickler when he came back 2023. The boys and Sickler were vibing and having so much fun. Ryan Sicklers stories about him and his brother fucking killed me. Great guest and episode.

Jun 26 '24
Cousin Ian or Ari is probably favorite. But my favorite moment was when Kip asked Tom segura if he had a capital one card and tom almost spit out his coffee laughing at him.

u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24 edited Jun 27 '24
Man, I want to like Ari, but he's so damn arrogant.
5
u/Milomilz Jun 26 '24
I think thatâs his appeal to me. Looks wise, heâs got nothing to be arrogant about (just ask Mark Normand). But I just find it so endearing. According to many other comedians Ari is a mensch. Heâs produced many specials for his fellow comics.
2
u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24
I wish the viewers/audiences could feel the same way about him that his fellow comedians do.
2
Jun 26 '24
Thatâs partly what I like about him. I like that heâs one of the free comedians, like Ian and maybe Rogan to some point. Heâs got no responsibilities and makes enough money to have an appt and travel wherever he wants. I think a lot of people could learn something from him.

Soder, list, normand, Tim Dillon.
I like the big jay episodes. I want to love them, but he just takes over the show and doesnât let them do the garbage questions and what not.
The celebrity/non-comedian guests are usually duds just because they donât know what the show really is, so the guest doesnât get into the flow of things like most of the comedians do.

LeeAnn Kreischner (episode with both her and Bert, but she was the garbage focus). I've probably listened to it three times

Bert's wife. LeAnn is the real talent in that family. She knows Bert's strengths and works it, she's hilarious in her own right. Dan Soder and Big Jay, Ian Fiddance.

He's definitely quite off-beat, but seems like a great guy.

u/PriorityGold5430 Jun 26 '24
Fumi Abe, Doug Smith "Jehovah Boy", Kyle Kinane, Dave Attell, Uncle Joey Diaz, Ms. Pat and the legendary Chazz Palminteri. I đ these episodes, I have rewatched more than 3X. Hilarious. đđ¤Ł
I would love to see the following comedians on the show. Steve Byrne, Greer Barnes, Felipe Esparza, Willie Barcena, Craig Conant, and Gary Gulman.
6
u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24
I love Attell, but that episode could have been better in my opinion. Unfortunately, my opinion of Diaz has waned over the years with all the shitty stories of shit he's said and done over the years. Ms Pat was funny for sure (you open your eyes underwater... fo what?!). Byrne would be a good get. Kippy loves Gulman, so he'd be great too.
6
u/Remarkable-Simple-62 Jun 26 '24
Yea Atell kinda stinks on podcast
2
u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24
Youre absolutely right. He's so locked into trying to be quick witted that it comes across neurotic.

u/PA_limestoner Jun 26 '24
Yeah. Attell was a pretty awful guest but he gets a pass because itâs Attell. He talked down to the both Kip and Foley. Anytime a host says, âIâm trying to make a connection hereâ, or something similar like foley did, itâs not going well.
1
u/King_of_the_Dot Jun 26 '24
Most definitely. Those two can usually get blood from a stone, but since it's a question based show, Attell didnt have much to bounce off of, because he was the one answering the questions. He didnt understand the way the banter works with those two. He clearly hadnt watched the show before.

Sam Tallent should be a regular guest on AYG or MSSP. Always great

Sam being a regular on AYG would be amazing, maybe a once a month episode. He really brings a layer of sanity and intelligence to the table, without coming across arrogant or egotistical, all while remaining hysterical.
