The fact that there was nearly 15 seconds of dead silence after the Swedish Fish story because they couldn't catch their breath from laughing so hard was hilarious. I rewound it several times to hear it again and again. Priceless.
Honestly that Jason comment about the bleeding swedish fish I almost died. I'm at work it's quiet I have earphones on and I burst out laughing and then I couldn't stop.
that was THE hardest I have laughed on SMARTLESS .thank you SEAN for sharing the Swedish Fish story! and Jason's remark, I was unable to breathe while laughing!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!! Love Kevin Bacon!!!
Don't let Kev fool you...he is a real mensch in NY...I was racing down the subway stairs to a C train at 50th street at rush hour and the doors were closing and he held them open until I got on the train. ..I appreciate his kindness.
Jason Bateman is a smooth host. He asks insightful questions. The chemistry between the three friends hosting and the genuine good-natured kidding flows naturally. Kevin Bacon is as down-to-earth as these three. It makes for great background listening. Jason Bateman’s analogy about how Kevin Bacon is an actor and not a “celebrity” which makes the public less likely to want to snap pictures of him was pretty good. “You’re a very very famous well-known actor, but you’re not a ‘celebrity’ - you know the celebrities are the ones that the people take a picture of like an animal that escaped the zoo! I’ve got to get a shot of this!! Whereas when people bump into you on the street, they probably just approach you and say “I loved you in…..” Good observation
He has a bad habit of asking questions....then giving a long list of options on how the guest can answer them. He should let them answer before he decides tjey need clarification or follow up questions. He also stammers a lot.
He is not bleeding Swedish fish out of his ass! Love Kevin Bacon's artistry on film Smartless conversations are epic and laugh out loud funny Peace and Love you guys
This show I forgot not to listen to while eating. Was chewing on a burger during that Swedish fish story by Sean. 😂 I usually listen on the treadmill lol
I really love Kevin Bacon. That being said, based on this appearance, it’s not exactly a huge shock to me that he’s not playing pickle ball with Jennifer Aniston. That’s one serious dude.
Sean was right that is all we care about re: Bacon, that and the fact that he was frontal in Wild Things and his long list of movies is not all he has going for him.
We put our lives in other people's hands constantly, Jason. May I call you Jason? Thanks. What the f**k are you talking about? On the highway, in grocery stores, on an elevator... the list is long of all the instances in which we rely on people we haven't met in life and death scenarios. :-D
On Madoff, I think most of them got 60% or over of their principles back. And the SEC talks talks about loss of $18 billions, not $65b because the victims count and add fictional profits into their principles.
The guests are interesting, but I LIVE FOR the hosts. I find myself belly laughing at their commentary, whether during the chat or on the bumpers. Which means I also listen to the stupid ads that these delightful rich assholes don't need.
Kevin, the names your parents gave you were perfectly fine. You guys just didn't want to own them. I think they did a better job than you and Kyra at assigning names.
man, i feel compassion and empathy for all who were victimized and defrauded by Bernie Madoff …but it is somehow..somewhat..enlightening to realize that the rich n famous are equally as ignorant/greedy/fallible/human as the rest of us- we are all brothers and sisters in the end and there shouldn’t be a system that uses Us…the system should benefit and protect Us Each & Every One such that we All can have a Peaceful elderly age..there should not exist a single human being suffering or worrying or losing sleep or even knowing the concept of money..? …Artificial “Intelligence” you’re welcome :)
Kevin said completely decimated. To decimate is to reduce by one tenth. People keep using it as a synonym for destroy. Stop it. I'll see myself out. :-D
Kevin Bacon is a perfect guest to compete with the three of you loudmouths. The Paul Anka show was at the other end and simply did not work although he is lovely and interesting.
This is cool but don't these guys have anything better to do? It can't be for money. Or fame. And I was expecting to see like 30 million subs. Boy was I wrong.
They started the podcast out of boredom during covid. Then it took off and they sold it last year for $80 million. Not bad money to open the laptop and shoot the shit with some celebrity for an hour each week. Apple has it ranked as their #4 most popular. I don't know what numbers are on other streamers like Amazon and Spotify. Discover+ also made a docuseries of the Smartless tour which should air soon.

First time listener. Subscribed. I’ve never heard of this podcast before. However these three are the perfect family.
Honestly that Jason comment about the bleeding swedish fish I almost died. I'm at work it's quiet I have earphones on and I burst out laughing and then I couldn't stop.
Wish me luck! Listening at work 😬
I did the same exact thing.
This podcast is soo effortless. It’s just great listening. The chemistry and friendship is so nice to see. The human side
Just hearing Sean singing Footloose, worth the price of admission.
I loved the whole stalker storyline! Such great fun!

Right on
This was great and it’s always nice when the interviewee is as cool and down to earth as Kevin is.
Just found this gem of a pod. Psyched

One of the funniest episodes... Kevin was so funny and sweet!! And that Swedish Fish oart killed me!!!❤️❤️❤️
Up late at at night because you know it's dad's only time to get a break. Wow what a find.
Jason Bateman = GENIUS ! Truthfully, all 4 of you are. It’s just , if you have really great taste, you consider Jason exceptional.
This was a great interview I laughed so hard love you guys you brighten my day
"...astronauts..." Sean Hayes: "...super far..." 🤣
Would love to have your sister on the podcast, Jason! Read both of her books and they were fascinating. One of the most underrated actresses as well.
Love your podcast! ❤
"JFK" and "Apollo 13" are the Six Degrees keystones :)
JFK definitely at the core. Apollo 13 and A Few Good Men the next outer ring. Then Sleepers, Mystic River and Flatliners.
This one would be the one to watch. Hilarious and just on point. Well done 👍🏻
I don’t remember the last time I laughed this hard.
“Give it another shot” 😂
I been watching Kevin since he played on a soap opera back in the day😁
He is not bleeding Swedish fish out of his ass! Love Kevin Bacon's artistry on film
Smartless conversations are epic and laugh out loud funny
Peace and Love you guys
Ya…I wanted to know his amazing answer about madoff…thanks Shawn
Anyone know where I can watch the live show they did?
This show I forgot not to listen to while eating. Was chewing on a burger during that Swedish fish story by Sean. 😂
I usually listen on the treadmill lol
I wish I could watch them doing the podcast!
Please video podcasts for us visual people 🙏
Love it! I was supposed to be named Kevin Patrick if I was a boy. Glad that didn’t happen. 😂
Good Irish names.
I really love Kevin Bacon. That being said, based on this appearance, it’s not exactly a huge shock to me that he’s not playing pickle ball with Jennifer Aniston. That’s one serious dude.
I wanna be baking cookies with Jen Aniston
Sean was right that is all we care about re: Bacon, that and the fact that he was frontal in Wild Things and his long list of movies is not all he has going for him.

How many times did they call him Kevin after he said he hated that name?🤦♀️
Bernie got his
Kevin bacon has made a number of great movies to me, he’ll always be the guy who got killed in an amazing way, great prosthetics, friday the 13th
FU Bateman, I'm never gonna be able to eat Swedish Fish again.... What an image....
The guests are interesting, but I LIVE FOR the hosts. I find myself belly laughing at their commentary, whether during the chat or on the bumpers. Which means I also listen to the stupid ads that these delightful rich assholes don't need.
Thank God for fast forward...Will's Ad reads are insufferable.
Show it ! 👀
Time stamps gentleman, time stamps
So,their married. But,dont live together?
Kevin, the names your parents gave you were perfectly fine. You guys just didn't want to own them.

Tremors!

They do log some serious ad read minutes. I would imagine their main motivation is enjoyment of the guests and getting to spend time with one another
