Joel Radio #147: Just Play Along
Feb 24th
It’s a breakdown of the 2015 Oscars as Joel and Corey tell you why Neil Patrick Harris “bombed” as host when he actually did just fine, how celebrity assholes in the crowd ruined the performance for Neil and why nobody can seem to do the job well. The guys also reveal why Birdman was an undeserving winner for best picture, the reasons the academy loved it so, and Oscar’s long history of picking the wrong film as the best year after year. They also look into the controversies from the show like the death montage snubs, Wes Anderson’s girlfriend and the idiotic article that followed, and the extremely weird look and behavior of John Travolta – though still not as weird as Michael Cimino. Plus, SNL turns 40 and the reunion was as expected – the funny guys were funny and the guys who weren’t, weren’t. Joel says that’s enough of Fallon and Timberlake, Corey can’t get enough of Bill Murray, and Eddie Murphy has pretty much won the asshole of the year already.

By the look on his face, even Eddie Murphy knows NPH is in trouble here.
Joel Radio #146: Full of It
Feb 13th
Joel and Corey were driven nuts by the deluge of media stories this week. Jon Stewart quit, Brian Williams got suspended, and Kanye West went crazy. There is also the 40th anniversary of Saturday Night Live, and the controversial list of the best cast members in history. Joel tries to guess the top ten, and probably does a better job than Rolling Stone. Hear who’s ranked too high and who gets the shaft (Norm Macdonald is great! – Joel). Also, find out possible replacements for Stewart at The Daily Show, Joel’s simple summation of what’s wrong with Brian Williams, and lots of hate for Kanye – but none better than this guy. Plus, the guys say mean things about Sam Smith, Corey gets chicken & waffles (eventually), and Joel goes to a Brazilain steakhouse and won’t be eating again for a while. Listen, laugh and then help Corey get a shockmount.

We’re sorry, but there aren’t 134 people who have ever lived that are or were funnier than Norm Macdonald
