Joel Radio #149: Fat Guys Can Dance Too

Apr 1st

Posted by joel in Shows

Joel Radio has long been the show of record for changes in the late night talk show landscape. This past week’s debut of The Late Late Show with James Corden was unique, as Joel and Corey don’t agree at all about the show with one host despising its very existence and the other finding it competent with the potential to be really good. Let’s not spoil who liked it and who didn’t, but the argument on the show is fierce, heated and funny as always. Also, Comedy Central has found Jon Stewart’s replacement and his history of bad and possibly offensive tweets may doom his future as host of The Daily Show. Plus, Jeremy Clarkson gets sacked, HBO’s Scientology documentary is terrific, the Flight of the Conchords guys make a vampire comedy, and season four of Girls sees an unlikely return to form.

There was a plan for this week’s show, but that will have to wait. Pressed for time, the guys delve into some of the weeks big news items, like the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. Joel feels cover model Bar Rafaeli is overrated and offers his own suggestion for the cover. Has the modern media landscape give the ever-horny Joel a callous to hot chicks? Were the past cover girls that hot, or is there just too many of these mags around now. Will Corey stop reading the McRib article to care? Listen and find out. Also, Joel get insulted on Comedy Central and loves it, Corey takes in Friday the 13th and hates it, and play along with our new game “What Looks Italian?”. Joel = no, Corey’s shirt = yes.

Corey and Joel Radio Show #182: Well Made Junk

Jul 25th

Posted by joel in Shows

It’s funny how the former dead-in-the-water summer TV season has recently become an ocean of all-new programming. This week the guys look at a dozen summer TV shows, and try to determine if summer’s “junk food” TV can actually be better then the scripted highbrow drama of the rest of the year. Of the new shows, Corey watches every episode of the Mole while secretly hating it, Joel loves I Survived a Japanese Game Show and Celebrity Family Feud, while Showtime finally overtakes HBO, but still gives us the most annoying new show of this summer (or any other). Also, Comedy Central almost gets the Gong Show right, while PBS debuts an animated show for God-knows-who. Plus, X Files and Stepbrothers reviews from Corey, Joel defends his music choice, and Corey’s gorilla strength costs the show money.
