Joel Radio #261: Welfare Check

Apr 14th

Posted by joel in Shows

Another week in lockdown has Joel calling up his friends. He starts with Ted Moss, who isn’t buying into all the stay at home restrictions and just wants to paint his house, or go out on a boat or whatever else they tell him he can’t do. Ted has also returned from a big podcasting conference and will soon be famous with his own YouTube channel and other podcast gimmicks that all cost him money. Later, Corey halls joins Joel and his girlfriend Layla to discuss what to watch while you’re doing nothing. They recommend HBO’s Run, Crip Camp on Netflix, the great comedy doc It Started as a Joke, and pan The Gentlemen, Birds of Prey, and Like a Boss. Also, Modern Family ends as they’ve probably all died of old age by now.

It’s actually not illegal to paint your house but Ted is angry about it anyway

Joel checks in during the pandemic to interview journalist Steve Miller about coronavirus, America’s response to the crisis and taking guesses at when it all might end. Steve’s also been doing a bunch of reporting on a sensational Florida murder-for-hire case, but he still hasn’t seen Tiger King. Also, comedian Derek Richards checks in from Las Vegas on the state of Vegas, and why comics might actually get a raise out of unemployment. Plus, Joel’s quarantine-mate Layla check in on how they’re staying sane and all the stuff they’ve been watching like McMillions, Tiger King, The Office, Girls, and so much more. You’ll also hear Layla describe giving her first haircut, which might a true-crime case in the future.

Which is worst? Joel’s quarantine haircut or Joe Exotic’s mullet?

Mar 10th

Comedian and all-around curmudgeon Bill Hildebrandt returns to chat about how the corporate comedy show is done wrong, the effect of coronavirus on the business and why comedy agents are weasels. It’s an inside comedy talk for sure, but it’s hard to disagree with him – unless you’re an agent or a corporation looking for fun-but-misguided way to entertain your employees. Also, Joel takes Rob Schneider out for breakfast, Atlanta traffic sucks, what happens when a big store closes, and movie production issues that drive Bill nuts. Plus, a TV and movie rundown with The Invisible Man, The Impractical Jokers Movie, The Outsider on HBO, Hunters on Amazon Prime, Breeders on FX and more.

A lot of ground is covered on this show, as Ted Moss returns to re-cap the Oscars with Joel and talk about his own podcast. Joel discusses which Oscar picks he got wrong and (mostly) right, and why Parasite really deserved to win. The guys also discuss podcast audio quality, toilet paper budgets, travel nightmares, and Ted takes us back to a quaint time when porn movies played at drive-in movie theaters. Plus, reviews of James May: Our Man in Japan, HBO’s The Outsider and McMillions, Locke and Key and much more.

The giant, be-all-end-all movie review and Oscar preview show is here for 2020. It’s the biggest Joel Radio of the year, and Joel is joined by a new guest co-host, comedian Jason Fylan-Mares, who shares his best and worst films of the year. But wait, Corey Hall returns from a public radio booking to add his insights and yes, it get contentious as always. Only one guy like Uncut Gems, Joel hates Little Women, Corey hates INXS, the documentary nominees are all wrong, there’s too much feet in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and so on. This is always a fun show to make, so if you’re looking for a good movie to watch, learn from us and pick a good one.

It was a weird year at the movies for sure. Waiting for Two Popes in The Lighthouse

Movie Mania, Oscars

Joel Radio #256: Sing It Dave

Jan 24th

It’s an experimental show as Joel visits Ted Moss at his new podcast studio, and attempts to record there. It turn out okay – please comment on the quality below if you wish – with a variety of topics including David Lee Roth’s return to the stage in Las Vegas. Turns out the Van Halen front man sounds a little off in the clips Joel plays. The band sounds good, though, if that is really the band playing. It’s a full Joel Radio investigation on this one! Plus, Three big Oscar movies reviewed, 1917, The Two Popes and Little Women. Joel was completely annoyed with one of these for editing reasons, surprised by how good one was, and thought the other was a masterpiece. Ted even went out to see one!

Those that can’t sing at least try to look the part

Comedian Ted Moss returns to talk about getting ghosted for a date, starting his own podcast, and he might be the only person alive to hate the Netflix show Magic For Humans. Joel dumps on Eddie Murphy hosting SNL, has a new term for amateur comedians, and thinks Magic For Humans was fantastic. Plus, a giant slate of move reviews including Jojo Rabbit, Bombshell, Richard Jewell, Ford vs Ferrari, Marriage Story, Judy, Maiden, Apollo, It’s a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, and The Quiet One. Plus, Dolemite is My Name was pretty good but was better when it was called The Disaster Artist.

Joel Radio #254: Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Review

Dec 20th

Joel attends opening night of the new Star Wars movie and reviews it along with comedians Kevin Kramis and Josh Bowab. Turn out the guys liked it overall, even if they weren’t all that hyped to see it. The review is *spoiler free* for the first 18 minutes or so – you’ve been warned! Joel rips Kevin for peeing at THE most inopportune time, the guys try to figure out the geography of the Star Wars universe, and why Lando was hitting on that one chick. Joel thinks its a fine Star Wars film with plenty of cute stuff, some questionable CGI, and a bit of fan-service that is 42 years too late. Nothing to get upset about like Last Jedi, anyway. It’s one of the least-disappointing films this holiday season. Go see it!

Here’s Babu. The breakout star of this film. The Babu/Baby Yoda buddy film can’t be far away

Joel Radio #253: His Masterpiece

Comedian Ted Moss returns, although it’s best to describe him as artist Ted Moss for the purposes of this show. Ted painted a portrait of his comedy buddies, including Joel, and while it doesn’t suck, Joel has some questions. Why are there no faces? Why is Joel on a box? It’s an odd thing to do, but that’s Ted! Always entertaining. Also, the guys talk about the traits of good comedians, comedy cliques, and Joel’s theory on why people don’t come back to comedy shows. If you’re producing a comedy show, you need to listen to this! Plus a deep dive review of The Irishman, Joel digs The Mandalorian, Ted ruins the great film Parasite for himself, The Farewell is a snoozer, Bikram is an asshole and much more.

Can you spot Joel among the luminaries in Ted’s painting?

Joel Radio #252: Comedians in Cars Flipping Over

Nov 15th

Being a road comic is a dangerous job sometimes, as you’ll hear on this show. Comedian Billy Ray Bauer returns to tell of a harrowing car accident he was involved in while traveling to a gig in Upper Michigan. Yes, it involved winter weather, but it was on November 1st! Hear Billy’s story, his stories of other road accidents in 35 years on the road – deer are not kind to Billy – and Joel’s closest equivalent road story which isn’t a big deal, but does feature hillbillys and a fire truck. Also, some good advice for new comedians on how to find work. Turns out befriending older comedians will get you far! Plus, Mrs. Fletcher gets pervy on HBO, Motherless Brooklyn gets reviewed, the movie dog lovers must avoid, and Joel’s “Fuck China” documentary double feature is ready to ruin your good time.

The actual car after Billy’s accident. Note the airbags. Scary stuff.

Hear Billy, Joel Fuck China, Motherless Brooklyn, Upper Michigan
