    Matt and Trey are 2 of the most I respect in the world, the comedy they create and the overall genius is unmatched.

    Matt describes recognizing internet humor as such a bizarre experience because he helped create it.

      Yea damn. Hearing them vocalize how they are no different from trolls but they are funny. So that’s what makes them better than trolls. Is sad but they the goats. It does make me a little sad

    46:14 I don't really like to be the nostalgic type, but I actually really like the first few seasons. The lack of structure and more random humor appeals to me a lot. Take that episode from the first season where all the kids are trapped in the bus with the monster, and they're all telling different versions of the same story. I love that episode - I still say "Now that's what I call a sticky situation!" all the time - and you just wouldn't get that with new South Park. I like the newer stuff too, but I would love to see a lot more of that old style South Park peppered into newer seasons. I guess it won't happen though, since they said they prefer the new way of things, but that's okay too.

      Terrance & Philip in Not Without My Anus is their best ep. Pip is up there too. I'm bummed we'll never get episodes like those again.

    I felt really freaked out when at 57:40 he started talking about how the new generation can do multiple things at the same time. I am 24 and it's true for me this is normal. I don't think it's difficult however, I listen to this podcast I play a game I have 7 other tabs open music chess I think everyone can do this it's just about what place in your mind you are. It's really interresting however to hear them talk about this. Defenitly I do not think only the 'new generation' can do this, I could teach anyone this in 1 moment.

    I like how South Park keeps it fresh by adapting. They knew they couldn't go on forever with stories about what 3rd graders go through every day, so they adapted. Now they do shows on current events. To me, that's how the show has kept from going stale all these years

    58:00 - I grew up flying all over the world - we had actual travel games, Walkmans (Walkmen?), and would make friends with any other kids on the flight. Puzzle books, too, like crosswords, or writing (I would journal).

    I think around season 10 is where I thought pretty much every episode was just great, to a higher degree than at any other point... However up until at least season 19 there seemed to be something like one or two episodes per season that was (at least) as good as anything they'd ever done...
    When it started serializing was when I really started to tune out... That said I feel the latest season is probably the best one since 19.

    Kind of lame interview. I blame Bill. Bad questions. It's like he wasn't all that familiar with all their work. Very generic. Too bad because he had two of the greatest guests for over an hour.

    Big up the legends T Parker and MStone, too much shitty movies are created that are just distractions and wastes of space and time. All the ideas have been done. lets just give the film making a rest for a time, Eh??
