2147: Gang Dick

[Sparrow]

pleeeeease keep having Mara on the show. love love love love love. love.

Mara is kickass and managed to outdo her last appearance. So great she came back. Especially considering her offense at Keith's Robin Williams commentary.

I bring this up because it's interesting how she perceived them. She was aghast at Keith, (considering her recent appearance) and the fact that she did a movie/ knew Robin. It may have appeared callous of Keith to comment on Robin's death; but it's also a bit narcissistic of Mara to instantly think of herself. It's not like Keith was lying. He was doing his job. Staying true to his truth as a comedian. Not censoring himself.

I'm a huge Robin Williams fan. Some of his films, (Dead Poets/ Goodwil Hunting) are like the cool uncle I never had. Love those flics. But after a few months of Keith, (and let's not leave Danny out - TTSWD still throws joke thief/ RW/ zinger) I came to look at his stand up in a new light. Not a negative. Not a positive. Just correct. And that's what KATG offers, (still - after 10 years) is the correct and honest approach to things. I like that.

Can't wait for Mara's return to KATG. Super excited about Welcome to Nightvale's live show tour. It actually goes through my little mtn town. I got my ticket and am stoked. Maybe Mara will show up? Either way. More Mara Please!

Really enjoyed listening to Mara today and the back and forth between herself and Keith when talking about Mr. Williams.

My daughter has 'Matilda' on a fricken loop right now - it's the only thing she seems to watch. Thankfully, Embeth Davidtz is in it otherwise I would have broken the disc by now.

Be still my laid-back, optimistic heart.

Great fucking show, but the best bit was the last 60 secs when Keith dropped the Gang Dick line & Mara and cHemmo absolutely lost their shit (as did I)


Awesomely lovely wonderful guest. Get her back. ASAP.

You know, Mara is fine and all but man, you know, don't start a drinking game based on the way she talks. If you take a shot every time she says "um, like, you know" or some variation, you'll be in a coma by then end of each show she's been on. You know.

I too lost my collective shit. I was listening to the whole show wondering where "Gang Dick" came from, and didn't even realize it when Mara was talking about her name about 2/3 into the show.

EDIT: The next poll should be-

Keith is:
1) A comedic genius
2) A thoughtful listener
3) All of the above

I completely did not see Gang Dick coming, and Keith remembered the finger-tapping/talking compulsion Mara had.

You forgot an option.

Ok, but 3 and 4 need to switch so that "All of the above" still applies. I'm pretty sure Kim Jong Il died as soon as Keith went on "vacation" in December 2011, so let's not just limit it to friends on facebook.
