Nah, it certainly wasn't a great hang for them, they couldn't throw out instinctual dark punchlines because Al would react all serious and completely derail the comedy of the moment. Don't get me wrong it was a good conversation, but it's about having a laugh and talking shit. When someone has weird non jokey energy after OBVIOUS jokes, that shit ain't a vibe and you could physically see Mark straining to contain his jokes lmfao.
@m you didn’t get the memo that Rogan switched over to being a serious podcast hell bent on getting to the bottom of every controversial topic. He’s too important for jokes
It makes them more relatable and more human. The interview was decent to my eyes, but I can relate to feeling anxious and awkward in certain social situations in which people have assured me I wasn't noticeably anxious or awkward.
Honestly not bad at all, you're clearly completely different generations of comics but you guys kept it flowing and he seemed to be enjoying himself. Good shit boys!
@@geeoffchin they might just be completely different types of people, like they clearly weren't on the same foot but it never came across as unusually awkward or combative. I almost feel like some was cut out, but yeah who knows
It's an anxious laugh, don't give him shit unless you want to be canceled for not realizing what you said. Anxiety is a real thing, I have it, and I assume it is more pronounced when you are in the room with a guy who was a senator(fg), and claims to have started SNL. And has proof of all of it! Then the guy says, "huh?" and gets all weird, then you call him a cunt! Do you know what that does to an anxious guy? huh, it's not pretty.
Mark and Sam and Al being very Mark and Sam and Al. Love revealing stuff that isn't just all bits, where you see personalities poke through. fuckin' riiiiiiiight
The set and camerawork really works well. The shot where you can see all 3 participants having a conversation is tops. Al Franken; LEGEND. Mark and Sam, really dig your content.
Mark when Al mentioned Norm and you wanted to point at his picture…it was awesome that you realized Al was deep in his point and let it go. A sign of a truly good podcaster
With that little disclaimer in the beginning I was expecting something different than what we're used too. This was a great ep! Whyd they put that in here? Lol
Seems like they just threw him under the bus because he didn’t laugh when Mark said the c word. And Sam kept razzing him for some reason, that was the real awkwardness. Aside from that it was like every other episode.
A little mincey ego might be to blame here. Careful Icarus, and by Icarus I mean Mark. Who knows what happened before they started rolling but it seemed to me like Mark woke up on the wrong side of bed.
"..not our best..." I think because they're both SO extremely quick- witted, damn funny & used to guests who are friends whom they joke back & forth with) that here when several of their one liners fell flat with Franken who simply didnt seem to realize they making jokes that the boys felt self-conscious (they shouldn't have) or badly there was more laughing (again they should have). It was a nice change and still interesting, enjoyable, entertaining.
I think this is what makes Mark a great comic. He has a healthy dose of self-criticalness that compels him to strive for excellence. He's good at bombing gracefully and playing it cool despite experiencing a great deal of anxiety and painful awkwardness in his mind. His bombing is better than my killing it.
That weird moment when you realize you find things other people don't think are awkward awkward, and you find things other people think are awkward not awkward.
Why would you guys apologize for this?! It was a classic. Bits and callbacks came out of the awkwardness, and genuinely seemed like a good hang. Franken is a legend.
I think Mark is good at concealing his anxiety and feelings of awkwardness for what he perceives as a disjointed conversation that didn't flow well. I can relate to social situations in which I felt anxious and awkward but the other people didn't pick up on it.
True. The interesting thing is they were both great with Rick individually but together they get stuck in their unique dynamic and can't be open to the guest.
Props to Mark for standing his ground on things he believes instead of backing down to the older person in the room just because theyve been around longer.
26:00 in Franken gets all offended and high-horse douchey to Mark. i get exactly why they put the disclaimer, this guys energy doesn't match the show. this is one of the worst eps yet. and that's ok, I still love the show! but i get it!
@@AA-xb2zm That’s what I saw too. It was like two drunk kids talking to an adult. They were trying so much harder to be edgy when they saw that wasn’t his thing, and that itself made it awkward from what I saw. Seems like hosts should make more of an effort to adapt to their guests rather that vice versa. Throwing him under the bus with the disclaimer was even more disrespectful and juvenile. Like they were butthurt he didn’t like their jokes so therefore he’s in the wrong. Kinda ironic.
Mark’s abortion joke about Sam’s abortion jokes, is why this podcast will always be one of the funniest shows, even with the wettest of blankets for guests
This episode was absolutely solid. There wasn’t anything THAT weird. Couple pauses and nbc being weird with what they can show here and there but it was totally fine.
Apology? For what? A legend taking us to school, behind the curtain, in some of the biggest comedic venues, with some of the funniest comics known, at this point in human history? I hope it was sarcasm. Go with that, gentlemen. It was obvious that you were BOTH enjoying the company of the Gentleman from Minnesota. GREAT SHOW!!! Al Franken is a good man. And his Army trouble was bullshit. Thank YOU for YOUR service, Mr. Franken.
I think in their minds (esp Mark), they were riddled with feelings of anxiety and awkward chemistry but are good at appearing confident. Mark is a tad insecure and is often hard on himself for having very high standards that he feels like he falls short of.
The disclaimer in the beginning was the weirdest part of the episode, there should have been an apology disclaimer for you guys doing a disclaimer, haha! The only people who seem kooky are the hosts in that intro. Still an enjoyable ep! #comedy
This is hands down one of your best podcasts. You adjusted well and made it feel loose and funny. Al appeared to have a great time. You guys are your own worst critics!
That disclaimer was a great promo for people to listen till the end.. that's all that was for me lol. Nothing seemed crazy while listening. Mark you queef!
lol i appreciate the warning intro, but this ep was great! i love and respect the hell out of al franken.. he was a little cranky, but it seemed mostly playful
Awesome episode very cool to see one of the original writers cast members turned politician still be humble enough to chop it up and drink a beer. Next to Burr best podcast on RUclips
I remember his book with comedic skewering of people abusing politics like Anne Coulter from when I was young, "Lies, And The Lying Liars Who Tell Them". His comedic style is pretty dry but builds to a smart sharp point. His background in comedy combined with his political savvy really enabled him to outmanuver and catch his political opponents from directions they couldn't see coming. It is pretty funny to see an ex senator who also had to step down due to a joke taken for sexism and questionable behaviour feel uncomfortable around Mark's style of comedy, probably suffering flashbacks of the cancel mob coming for him. Shane Gillis had the same reaction when Mark was on his podcast multiple times no doubt for similar reasons.
Why the disclaimer at the beginning? I went through the whole show expecting awkwardness around the corner, and it never happened. It was a great hang, by my favorite comedians, as always.
That was so good. Normand refusing to not take big swings is fucking classic, while Sam goes a bit more reverent. Mark makes it "awkward," but there's no way Al didn't leave absolutely loving his chops, and both of them in general. Al's a solid, generous guy, and I definitely give him props for booking a stop with the fresh "new" talent. He has two jobs to straddle, and if you ever listen to him, it's very likely he's running for president if there's an opening. So there were things he definitely couldn't laugh at, because the world sucks. COMEDY!
@@mattrobnett58 The only thing that made it awkward was Al blowing the Democrat whistle, hopeing to tribe up with more left wing insults and puns. This guys OldHollyweird through and through.
Honestly it was the apology at the beginning that made it weird. Mark and Sam have their own energy and they haven't learned how to meet the guest where the guest is instead of forcing the guest to meet them. It's happened a few times now but they will learn to do better interviews over time.
This episode was actually good. I’m not sure what the disclaimer was for. You got geezer Carolla on the pod. He brought a different dynamic to this episode. Wasn’t bad. A little cooky. But so are you guys, in your own ways. This was some good stuff. Thanks for coming through every week.
Al is a classic - maybe his hearing is going a touch, so there were some odd step-ons, but - I think the show was great fellas, I enjoyed it, not sure why it needed a disclaimer!

71 y/o Al did his best to keep up with two of the funniest quickest guys on the scene, great job Al!
I agree! how deep is that jag?
Mark always talks about bombing at being normal. It was hilarious seeing him try and get something to land while Al was just pretty normal.
It's amazing how cool and confident he appears despite bombing. He's good at concealing his anxiety and feelings of awkwardness.
This disclaimer at the beginning of this episode was the “weirdest” part by far. Not every podcast has to be constant jokes
I get the disclaimer - maybe it was a little tough in the room but this was great, interesting and cool to see different generations connect

Mark "I don't think he liked me, we should apologize!"

Sam cringing at Mark was hilarious!
He kind of sounds like Heath Ledger joker
weird energy = we watch a bunch of old SNL skits that we mostly can't show
That weird moment when you realize you find things other people don't think are awkward awkward, and you find things other people think are awkward not awkward.
some episodes of this show are super heavy on "let's watch a thing we can't show the audience" and I do not understand it.

Is there a time stamp of the precise moment it goes “off the rails”? I’m listening to the whole thing still, but …
