Creeps, what’s your favorite moment from The Nightman Cometh?
"You know what it is, bitch"
I'm eating because I'm very uncomfortable
The sexing.
Boy's hole
And obviously the Troll Toll.
The quiet start with Charlie on the piano and Meg vibin is a great way to start the show.
Yeah that was very charming and comforting. Love them ❤
Production value has just shot through the roof since the beginning, love it.
can the structure now be whenever someone comes in hot, Charlie is there on the piano to add a backing track to it
Perfection
I repeated it 4 times in a row. An all time great moment in the podcast.
I unironically would watch a full production broadway musical of all Charlie Day music. I'd buy that ticket first day
I keep saying he should play Glastonbury. It’s the only festival where it would make sense ❤
They did do this episode as a stage play.
Same. Very much the same! It seems , at this point, to be a natural evolution of the show at this point! Bring on the next step Always Sunny and @charlieday to Broadway!!!
Oh, absolutely.
@@lukedeker4676 I loved it very much. Some people uploaded it somewhere here in yt and apparently, there are multiple versions of it recorded from different nights.
charlie is like unbelievably musically talented. do another musical episode please 😭
Technically, The Gang Turns Black is another musical
@@austinmelot1904 for sure, and it has arguably one of the most memed moments in the show (Frank mentioning n word) 😂
The gang turns black is crazy good as far as musicals go
@@zyourzgrandzmaz i beg to differ
What are the ruuuuuuules
i honestly kinda thought Lin-Manuel being a superfan was half joking but wow it's so cool seeing him actually geeks out about this episode
His passion about musicals really shows
Yes. He clearly really loves it, which is awesome...and it also means Charlie is really, really good.
I decided to give Hamilton a watch after seeing Lin-Manuel be such a huge fan of Sunny. Now I listen to the soundtrack in the car.
@@videogamechangers605 love this!!
I knew if he said he was a super fan he likely meant it lol he’s such an enthusiastic person
@@videogamechangers605 I'm glad to see you didn't throw away your shot.
I agree with Glenn. Gladys' delivery of "what's happening?", for me, is the funniest one in the entire show. Charlie's delivery when Dee explains the Invigaron is a close second.
when she shushes charlie is my favourite part
To me it will always be the entire scene in which Dennis comes to Charlie's room while he is sniffing paint and "living in a world of darkness", where they then write Dayman. But especially the delivery of "what is going ooon up here? - I never know, man"
Another great line delivery is Dennis saying, "Charlie, don't eat chalk." ruclips.net/video/v_8NRiN1xfU/видео.html&feature=shareb
Not even close to the funniest
LOOOK AT ME WHEN YOURE TALKIKG TO MEEEE oh shit the steaks are here
"I don't know enough about music to know"
- Charlie Day, the guy who wrote an entire musical episode in one day
The Dunning-Krueger effect! The more you know about something the more you understand how little you actually know about it. I love that he’s humble :)
@@eileensnow6153 that's opposite of the dunning
@@papa_ptit’s actually a two-way street. Your response shows which direction you’re going 👍🏻
@@hithere4719 nope nice try being edgy though! It specifically refers to the overconfidence of people who lack knowledge in a given skill or area. Never have I ever seen it refer to the opposite.
Thank you for demonstrating the effect 😊
@@papa_pt your extreme confidence based on nothing but your feelings demonstrates to me that you must be correct.
I love how LMM’s thought when he noticed Charlie and Mary Elizabeth were in the audience was “oh shit it’s Charlie and THE WAITRESS”. 😅😂
Charlie's just lucky to have the same name as his character!
A true creep.
Dude performed for the President, but Charlie and the Waitress...gotta love that :)
Yeah, that was a nice moment. Another thing mentioned during the podcast that made me smile was the idea that during the live version of this episode they perhaps should have had the waitress say 'yes'. I believe part of what makes the show's dynamic between Charlie and the waitress feel okay is the subtext that most of the audience knows they're married in real life. That, and the characters are all cartoonish anti-heroes. Still I agree it would have felt nice for the live version to break the third wall and her say yes.
@@bobsaccamanno3970fwiw in one of the live podcasts from last fall she was a guest and Charlie performed the Marry Me song and both nights she replied with “I mean yeah we’ve been married for almost twenty years” and kissed him afterwards
This opening with Charlie and Megan is wholesome AF
I think he doesn’t like her
No. He doesn’t think she is a person of consequence
He’s wrong. She’s incredible
@Goodererful Call your therapist.
@@Goodererful I think you forgot to take your meds this morning
I'll always remember the moment I knew this show had become a cultural juggernaut. My architecture studio did a semester abroad in Finland in 2014, and at one point while the entire studio (about 25% American students and 75% Finnish) was quietly working, someone spontaneously shouted out "Dayman!" and the *entire* room simultaneously responded with the "aaaAAAAaaaah!"
That’s awesome.
oh my god shut up
@@tidypeaches i agree, cant believe that happened! i was the guy who said dayman
imagine the reaction by the people who didn't understand the reference lol
i'm finnish and have been watching the show since i was 13 or something. theyve been airing it on finnish channels pretty much since it started.
Lin-Manuel geeking out over this episode is just amazing, a true testament to Cormac, Charlie, Rob, and Glenn's genius.
my favorite line in the episode is dennis going full gangster with "you know what it is bitch" while cocking the pistol.
Don't _say_ stage freeze, just do it
Don't improvise
Whatever bro
Me and my friends group chat is 🍀 The Gang 🍀 and we say that all the time to each other!
I say it all the time… fortunately my wife loves IASIP as much as me so she understands that I’m not actually calling her a bitch 😄
Lin trying to guide the podcast towards the Nightman Cometh but Charlie coming back to Hamilton all the time makes me laugh. Two Iconic musicals that will stand the test of time.
it's a testament to their humility, and it's so sweet and perfect
Hamilton is not even as close to as good as the nightman cometh, it is what it is.
Hamilton was BUTT
@@noahm15 =/
@@noahm15 Hamilton was better than I expected but I could never watch it again. I can watch Nightman Cometh once a month for the rest of my life.
Charlie unironically feels like a musical prodigy
He's a 40+ yesr old man. What you're mistaking for prodigal talent is actually years of practicing :)
Him and lin need to work together. What a song writing duo theyd be.
@@marciamakesmusic prodigy might not be the right word but when a person knows absolutely nothing about music but plays/creates beautiful songs/Melodies/tunes just by sitting at said instrument… i mean there is definitely something prodigal about that.
He just gets it
@@BradsGonnaPlay Taking lessons up to the age of 10 isn't not knowing. With music teacher parents, I would guess he probably had a 1000 hours of practice growing up including Trombone. He is modest... This is what a prodigy looks like. ruclips.net/video/oybU09RQUTs/видео.html Not dissing Charles at all. I picked up multiple instruments at 44. Despite limited knowledge he crafted a song, that I for one loved hearing them sing at the end.
I don't think I have seen anything sexier than a disheveled Charlie playing that piano so beautifully in quiet room with one observer
MHM
Well one visible observer :p
"but he lost his sense of feel" actually brought a real fucking tear to my eye.
That intro was golden
Why is Charlie Day the most charming person in the world. His piano playing was fantastic, and the fact he has in his head the actual chords to his little a cappella opening riff is fantastic!
I think he’s dismissive of Meg
@@Goodererful what does this even mean lol
I'm about to eat a Thomas' bagel. No lie.
He's amazing! I would genuinely listen to recordings of his tracks lol
Agreed, seems like he'd be a joy to be around all the time lol
I love when Frank asks if he can play the part naked and Artemis looks at him surprised because she asked Dee that exact same question in her first episode (Coyote Ugly dancer). The spark of their (weird) relationship always feels like it started there. Kindred spirits.
Frank and Artemis should have been a thing again after the death of Roxy lol
@@Rob_Cary He should make that whuuure his wife. Have the honeymoon in a dumpster behind Wendy's.
Wanna get sweaty in a Wendy's bathroom?
I never connected that!! Her interest was piqued. 💖
Now THIS is a super fan! Good pick up on this
Glenn just instinctively filling in the "Ahhhahhhahhhhhh" at the end gave me so much joy.
God I love this show.
My daughter organized and performed in a re-creation of The Nightman Cometh for her grade 10 theatre class final project. It was fantastic. Ode to Sunny
That’s amazing your kid is cool
Sounds like you've mastered parenting but don't Diddle Kids
You have raised your daughter well! ☀️
My friends did that for the same exact thing in the same grade, hell yea
They let a 10nth grader perform a play about r4pe? Thats nuts
Meg is such a good producer she really helps move the show along which has to be hard with five people on mic.
That's why she is such a great writer to have in the writing room.
she genuinely loves the show too, which i think is reason you like her then when you get to know her more over more episodes you begin to see shes so genuine and down to earth, i really hope shes in the new series even if its a cameo.
Thanks cuck Martin

Good man!
The Flando of IAS. 07
Thank you as always brother!
What the heck...
Doing God’s work
One of my all time favorite moments of the show is “i’m eating because i’m incredibly uncomfortable”. Seeing Dennis in such a human, relatable, and vulnerable moment so rare in the show and just slays me every time. I’ve probably said that line to my wife 100 times at various parties and gatherings and it always helps me giggle and feel better.
i died over that scene
Lol
There's something amazing someone who doesn't "know enough about music" to know the quality of a beautiful chord they're playing. I could listen to Charlie at the piano for the whole show.
yes! this!!!
No actually, one of my favorite parts of episodes is before the actual podcast starts and Charlie plays a bit of piano. So beautiful
He's just being extremely humble. He's 100% right, the bit he starts playing sounds like it could be straight out of Sondheim and Into The Woods in particular. The fact that he immediately notices that shows that he does "know about music".
I think it is also a matter of perspective. To laypeople like us, you are right that he is amazingly musically talented and skilled. Bear in mind, as he said in the episode he is the child of music teachers. His dad was a university professor for it and his mom was a music director for a primary school. Compared to them, he probably doesn't know a lot and that is his base of comparison.
My favorite thing might have been that Glenn didn’t mention that he went Juilliard…but Charlie did. The friendship and support between the 3 guys is really special. And listening to all of these folks talk musical theater made this old “drama kid” so happy. Also, the only musical that gets in my head more than The Nightman Cometh is Hamilton. This episode was all I hoped it would be. 💖
I thought the same thing about Juilliard!
The sunny guys meeting massive expectations.. name a better duo I'll wait
In the middle of the gross soul sucking muddy bog that is social media this episode of the podcast is pure sunshine and someone helping you out, but not leaving you in there to get hypothermia.
@@elizarock655 banshees are sometimes created by muddy bogs. 🤣 Just ask Charlie’s dad.
Soooo true! Love the support for each other and chemistry. This is why the show is magic. The ability to do this and still bust balls is a thing of beauty & true comedy
Can I ask how on earth has Glenn not been King George in Hamilton yet? He would be PERFECT in this role! Just think about it.
Because it is an extremely difficult song to perform.
@@Thermoskan1 Glenn went to Julliard. He can handle it.
Can’t emphasize enough how cool it is to see Lin Manual and the guys having fun and talking about their musical process. So cool that he’s a fan of the show
Manuel* and i agree
Lin Manual would be his autobiography title.
Nah him and the other guest sucked I had to skip their parts each time.
Lin Manual > Lin Automatic
@@commonguard3431 Just like how your parents skipped on you I hope.
We seriously needs another channel where it’s just Charlie noodling around on the keys while Meg is just quietly working away.
Hands down the best way to start the day!
I’d have that playing the background of my cafe
Vibes right
Charles song for the worst pub was also great. He might not know the theorie but he definetly gets the soul of music
Charlie just noodlin' through the songs in the beginning made my night.
Completely forgot time-zone's existed. This is my Monday morning 8 am podcast lol.
@@tommyprior_ haha same!!
Same. I dunno why but it makes me so nostalgic that I almost teared up haha. Almost like that feeling when Steve from Blue's Clues put out a video just checking in with all us 90s kids.
That was absolutely the greatest moment ive had all year and I had it second hand
And watching Meg just vibing to it was really heartwarming for some reason.
I'd pay SO much money to see a Lin-Manuel and Charlie written/produced musical. I'm sure they'd come up with something tremendous!
Absolutely. They should write it in a way that they intentionally dig themselves holes. And then get out of those holes comedically. They could almost trade of writing elements of it
I love how Glenn accepted his role in the Dayman song at the end. Legendary
The bloopers with Gladys are hilarious 😂🤣, what a legend.
Artemis suggesting “a sexually charged embrace” always makes me laugh.
I always loved that the background of the play is just a painting of Charlie and Frank's apartment- even in his imagination, the best he can come up with is just the same thing he sees every day hahaha
Cormac is so sweet! Charlie is so lucky with the friends he's gathered in his life, but it seems like he gives to them just as much as they've given to him!
Perceptive too, he doesn’t miss anything.
Props to Megan for always being super prepared! She's always got clips/bloopers ready and she always has great notes about the cast and extras. She's a pro!
The first two and a half minutes where Charlie is just playing and humming and improvising towards the end really speak to his talent. You can tell how much talent someone has when they're just playing around and it still sounds amazing!
As a pianist I didn't get the sense of someone noodling. I got the sense of someone who _really_ wanted to get a bit of practice in before Lin-Manuel showed up. Charlie's brilliant but even someone that good is gonna show up early to make sure he's warmed up before he might have to play in front of such a legend.
He did OUTSTANDING at making me laugh, just playing the Piano and Talking "singing", shit was hilarious and it sounded great.
(Oh damn, upon further inspection.. YOU sound pretty damn good too.)
@@dadcraft9949 The lyrics, though. Dude's a freestyler.
@@StanHowse agreed! I loved it! (And thank you for checking out my stuff 💜)
"There are points when your IQ goes up 100 points" is the perfect way to describe Charlie wanting to get his pent up creative freedom out in this show. A random episode he'll go on 3-syllable word filled rants about complex ideas, and then he'll go right back eating paint and not realizing his own friends are making fun of him.
That episode where he has to prepare the bar to be inspected by the city is a pretty good example of this.
I'm pretty sure Charlie is naturally very smart but he's almost always high or drunk or recovering from a concussion.
Absolutely one of the most phenomenal episodes and strikingly similar to Birdman but done at the same time without knowing
I think what we're discovering is that the venn diagram of sunny fans who also love stage musicals is more cohesive than we initially thought. Love that.
Charlie just inadvertently rewriting Into The Woods after claiming he knows nothing about music 😂
Meg's genuine love of the show really represents just how much the fans love the show, and I appreciate her for that.
If I don't see Gelnn Howerton playing King George on Broadway I'm going to riot. Make it happen Lin
YES!!!!!!!
NnnnYeeeeeeesssss

@@justinnyugen7015 well played 😂
I’ll put you in a box! A glass box! And I’ll display it… to remind you of my love.
Glenn hitting the high note at like 9am is impressive. He probably intermittent fasts
What lol
@@andiewade5502 most likely he intermittent fasts
@@andiewade5502 watch more of their podcasts. He mentions that he intermittent fasts often 😂
It's official, this is the best and most consistent podcast. Good job meg
52:40 also this is one the coolest things Rob has said imo, helping out artists and giving them real advice. Finding the sweet spot of releasing your work too often versus not enough is extremely difficult, especially today where releasing things is only a couple clicks away at all times. It's amazing to me when artists share their thoughts on the process. Thanks guys
That impromptu song about the guy who lost his eyes, nose, and sense of feeling in the war is a work of art!
Charlie downplays his ability, but he’s very musically talented
As a musician and die hard sunny fan this episode of the pod was just perfect in so many ways
SAME!
They did the song on season 3 episode 9 before it was the Nightman cometh
Lin seems like a pretty humble guy, he redirected so many compliments/comments on his work back to the show
@@KRvinsky yeah for some reason the zeitgeist had me turn on him for a while but this sorted that right out. he seems like a great guy and i love a lot of his work
@Kvinsky Why on earth would people turn on him? As far as I can see the main people who were criticizing him were teenagers who thought he was a little cringe because he is older than them, and older people are inherently cringe to teenagers.
The rest of the criticism I have seen seems like bad faith at best. Stuff like Hamilton not being progressive enough for people. It is good, better even, to comment on the structural problems with the US government, but I am not sure that Hamilton (which was first and foremost meant to entertain) would have been able to navigate that deeper complexity and still remain watchable as a musical.
You should do an episode where Lin rips off Charlie and makes a rap version of Night-man and it becomes a huge hit. The gang would talk about it and Charlie realizes Lin’s new hit is his play but nobody can remember doing the play because you know. Then Charlie tries to sue Lin but has no proof but finds the original chicken scratch script and the lawyer guy says “you can do shit with this”. So he tries to find proof but nobody saved the script. Charlie tries to find the piano player but she died long ago but saved the sheet music in her old desk. The desk was bought by Lin at an estate sale. He finds the original sheet music and stole it. He uses it to write a super successful local theatre production that goes viral.
This is actually so funny
So much yes
Hopefully they can work a bit of Bird Law into the episode 😂
That is such a brilliant and very Sunny plot idea, I love that
This is unironically good enough to be used as an actual episode. Great job.
Thank you for doing this episode justice!!! Charlie riffing on the piano several times, Cormac as a fantastic guest, the guys staying on track and covering almost every joke and important moment from the episode AND the live show... This was everything. I was so worried that adding Lin-Manuel would take their focus away from The Nightman Cometh - and I was so glad to be proven wrong! My favourite part (and it's not easy to pick one for this episode!) is from around 58:00 onwards, when Charlie, Cormac and LMM are just geeking out over chords and different styles of music while playing around on the piano and guitar and spontaneously singing.
It was a excellent call to have 30 minutes of somewhat more organized discussion with Cormac out of the way before bringing in LMM, and then having another 45 minutes of chaotic discussion and excitement with a genuine fanboy. I really appreciate that LMM himself kept bringing the conversation back around to the episode and forced the guys to break down each song and almost every character moment. I didn't expect him to get the guys to open about their love for theatre and music and Sondheim, and it was wonderful to listen to this nerdy side of Glenn and especially Charlie come out!
I was so worried this podcast episode wouldn't live up to our collective love for the Nightman Cometh and end up being a disappointment, so it feels amazing to know we're in safe hands with Rob, Charlie and Glenn, and Megan and the crew. Thanks for respecting us fans and creeps and giving us everything we didn't even know we wanted!
Hear hear. Whoever it was who planned the format for this episode (presumably Meg, maybe also Mara?) deserves huge amount of credit, it came together perfectly 👏👏
@@apmeehan since Rob seems to have been the one who brought in Lin-Manuel to surprise Glenn and Charlie, he probably had some discussions with Megan, Mara, etc. about the format
My favorite parts are Artemis's facial expression during rehearsal. All the faces, 😆
Her ability to play that archetype is unmatched. She steals every scene she is a part of with the shear insane, powerful energy she brings to the role every time.
You know the podcast is a home run when it's an hour and 20 minutes long and you watch it like a movie not stopping for anything!
I'll say it once, I'll say it again. Please make an album of all the original songs Charlie has done on the show! I want a high quality recording of "Paddy's Pub" and "Spider in my Soul"! Or even that amazing Yankee Doodle cover from the beauty pageant. That beat goes hard I fucking love it
the beat is insane
🎵"I don't need your trophies or your gold...
I just wanna tell you all go fuck yourselves!"🎵
Yessss
We need the full Go For It song that was playing in the club
I think Mac's baffled, mildly concerned "whatcha doin' buddy?" at the beginning is my favorite part.
time stamp?
My wife uses the “take a 5” on our kids all the time! 😂 thank you guys!
I’ve used that on myself 🤣
Cormac Bluestone is such a badass name lol
Charlie's face when they're talking about using this musical as inspiration is just incredibly wholesome and had to feel so overwhelming for him. Incredible.
I love that Charlie's "keyboards just make sense to me" is taken directly from the real Charlie haha
I think the world would be a much better place if everyone had more Charlie in their lives :)
I know SO many people who bailed on the show because they hate Charlie's voice. It's so bizarre to me. As much as his voice is raspy, I just love his voice.
My world sure would be. He's f'ing genius.
Charlie casually writing a whole musical in the first 2 minutes
As a young wannabe filmmaker/scriptwriter I find these Sunny podcasts so incredibly interesting. It isn't a surprise that they reached this level of success, because while they seem like they are just playing, they are actually so incredibly smart and know what they are doing.
Charlie said it sounded like Sondheim and literally began to play the intro to Into the Woods (despite being so loosely familiar with it).
The musical ear on this man is stunning.
it was such a good parody of sondheim-style song writing too
Lin showing up wearing The Nightman Cometh hoodie is pretty legit
What did I learn from this week’s podcast? Charlie Day is _way_ more like Charlie Kelly than I ever knew! He really is like a musically prodigy in that he didn’t study any of the technical side of musicals or music itself but still he just _does it_ naturally.
It just makes sense to him man
bringing Lin in as guest was genius and he’s very good at bringing it back around to talk about the episode
Everything about this episode (tv, and podcast) is amazing! Charlie's intro, all the fanboying between the gang and Lin, Gladys is a treasure! Thank you everyone who made this happen!
I’m not frequent crier, but the end of night man cometh made me tear up the first time. Charlie comes across as so sweet and genuine it just gets me.
Charlie’s piano improv needs to be a whole episode
I love that you showed Charlie practicing at the start of the pod.
Made Lin’s reaction to him playing the piano that much better 👏👏 Great fan service. Ty ❤
Glenn was panicking he didn’t get to warm up 😅
Cormac accidentally making the best Danny DeVito pun by saying "he's the goat, man." - immediately had me thinking about Hercules and how much convincing it taken for him to do a musical number in that movie as the half man half goat.
“Don’t say stage-freeze, just do it!” Forever one of the greatest lines ever uttered on television.
It's amazing how a lot of the interactions among the characters are based on real life. You see them act and you think: "that's an amazing choice to do that thing" and then you see them interact in real life and it's like: "it wasn' a choice, that's just how they act aroubd each other every day".
It is honestly kind of fascinating. They have been doing this since The Office was a new thing. I bet they don't even fully know where the line is between the characters personalities and their own sense of humor anymore, as too much irony slowly become reality if it is maintained for too long.
As a much less interesting example: My wife and I love the movie Hot Rod. It is just ridiculously stupid in all the right ways. We started ironically calling each other "babe," a term we both hated, as a joke based on the scene where Will Arnet yells it over and over. We were doing it because both of us hated it, and that was funny. But after doing it for a while it is now just literally what we call each other, no irony involved.
@@Caelinus weird
THAT MUSICAL NEEDS TO HAPPEN!! Loved hearing Charlie and I hope the that blind, noseless guy from the woods finds his love again😂❤
All he can smell anymore is crime.
The Glenn Howerton sock game is on point in this episode.
@City Sushi This! Yessss!
I can't fathom the level of restraint Meg is utilizing to not totally dork-out as Charlie is warming up.
As a fan of both Sunny and musical theater, I’ve rewatched this episode so many times.
Such a great discussion.
I envy musician's ability to just come up with something like that on the spot like Charlie did there and just change the mood and emotions of a whole room. Music is powerful, man. I'm a visual artist myself and I often hear people say the same thing about artists, like "I envy artists' ability to just conjure an image out of thin air, it's like a special power", but like, maybe it's trivial to musicians, but music's so much more special an ability to me. What Charlie did there with the improvised musical was like magic to me, it's such a powerful ability.
fellow visual artist who has felt this way for a long time. I realized that I see visual art as more of an energy impregnated symbol that does its work subconsciously, whereas music is pure cathartic expression and you can channel the information/emotion you want to convey in many different ways consciously and unconsciously.
make some shit for sure man, you probably have a latent ability
umm i have always been mesmerized by Glenn's full character commitment as the boy/dayman. the weird hump dance in the duet, "You know what it is bitch" .... i mean, fucking incredible.
holy, waking up and grabbing a cup of coffee. Watching the snow falling outside, and listening to a man who has inspired me creatively in so many ways, just indulge in something so simple that he loves, genuinely almost made me cry. Thank you meg for leaving the beginning in. For some reason, even tho the song was silly, humming along in my head "Little boy, baby boy, tiny boy, i need you!" while charlie played the paino really made me feel something.
I was singing too!
You rock Wyatt
I could listen to Charlie play the piano all day. The way he played Tiny Boy Little Boy at the beginning is just so beautiful which makes it even funnier thinking about the lyrics, wish I had sheet music to learn to play it that way even though it’s mainly just working with the chords. Absolutely loving the podcast and of course a huge fan of the show, you guys are my heroes!!
Charlie's piano + Glenn's "We did and we didn't" made my morning.
46:11 The girl proposing to her boyfriend is possibly one of the sweetest things I've ever seen.
Very wholesome. I just wish she'd taken a singing lesson or two first 🤣
I would have said yes tbh. The effort and the thought behind it warms my heart
It made me cringe violently
@@IllusionistBeatsOfficial I think that adds to it though tbh
“The Courtman Cometh” on RUclips
This is a prime example of exactly why this Podcast exists.
I cannot believe that first song was improvised, Oh Charlie you beautiful genius !
Charlie is beaming and so self conscious in this episode, I love seeing how genuinely excited he is about talking about his process with a huge name in the music industry, you deserve it all charlie boy :)
Dennis hitting the ah ah ah at the end fucking killed me. Such a signature sound that when you hear it outside of the show just fucking kills you lol
I really hope Lin introduces Charlie to the musical world. He’s so naturally gifted
Charlie reminds me of Trey Parker and Matt Stone in that way. Although Trey went to college for music and has always wanted to make musicals, he teamed up with Robert Lopez (someone who was already a theater legend and is a multiple EGOT winner) to write a full Broadway play. Charlie could totally bring storyline and lyrics to someone like Lin who has experience with writing musicals and they could create something amazing together.
When you guys bring Danny to the podcast, please make a episode at least 12h long :)
Love from Brasil!
For real I am ITCHING for Danny to come on.
Artemis too.
It's so funny the world wide love for and praise "Hamilton" wasn't enough for me to want to check it out but now it's small connection to this goofball show finally has me excited to see this award winning masterpiece of a musical. Also Lin Manuel Miranda, what a charming man.
Rob and Glenn looking at Charlie like my parents were at my recital. 😂
I know better pianists exist in the world but seriously I cannot get over how amazing charlie is. Don't get me wrong I've known how talented he is by watching sunny since the beginning but I would pay money just to see him live in concert for real. A great singing voice and amazing skills all around.
The first 2:40 of this pod, was absolutely magical. Charlie and Meg just viiiiiiibing.
I Love You, Mae Laborde! ❤Those bloopers are one of my favorites. God Bless her, she lived until 102. Can you imagine everything she lived through from 1909 - 2012? I hope she passed knowing the joy she gave us 💕💕
I mean, the Coolidge administration...crazy.
Love seeing Charlie do his thing. Sunny musical episodes are the best!
So true. Don't really do musicals but Charlie's are very good.
Charlie making Meg laugh has made me almost feel emotions again
@@JotenTheCorgi Wow, actual feelings, like some kind of fourteen year old kid? That's crazy! You guys remember feelings, right?
@@el_fucko Yeah, I have feelings every single day of my life.
@@evanwcahill4439 Do you?
Literally in tears at the beginning of this episode with Charlie on the piano. These guys are so talented it hurts.
Charlie is by far the most Talented of the group. What a comedic treasure.
The Rob Justice spin off is going to be epic at this rate. Rob needs to pitch it to Ryan and Disney.
Nah, Vic Vinegar is the man to go for.
Megs and teams production on this episode is dynamite. Best episode ever from Charlie rifting to the great musical talent.
charlie really deserves every ounce of his success and more. all of them do but charlie especially. holy fuck is he so amazingly talented.
It doesn't matter if you know the names of the notes; the magic of music comes from a place deeper than words. I hope one day Charlie does create a full musical
1:03:07 damn that harmony between Charlie and Glenn sounding pretty cool through headsets.
