Finished the Oteri episode. Quite, quite good. One of the top episodes.

Into the book, I had forgotten all about Billy Crystal being there at the very beginning.

I’ve now gotten past the Carvey years in the book and almost everything he says in it is the same shit he says ad nauseam on the podcast. I’m starting to lose some respect for him.

It’s not.

I really had no expectations for it because I never figured he’d be on the show. It’s a fucking great episode.

He mentioned the Downey documentary and it IS about Jim Downey.
