#and that's what you really missed podcast

Quote
In a new interview with the New Yorker ahead of his 70th birthday on Monday, the comedian explained his theory about why there’s no “funny stuff” to watch on TV anymore. “Nothing really affects comedy,” he said, “People always need it. They need it so badly and they don’t get it.” Instead of getting sitcoms like M*A*S*H, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and All in the Family, audiences miss out, he said, as a “result of the extreme left and P.C. crap, and people worrying so much about offending other people.” [...] A look back at some of his earlier comments on a similar subject adds some context, if not clarity. In 2015, Seinfeld sat down for an episode of The Herd with Colin Cowherd podcast, where he explained his aversion to performing stand-up on college campuses. “I don’t play colleges, but I hear a lot of people tell me, ‘Don't go near colleges. They’re so PC,’” he said on the show. After giving an example of his teenage daughter using the word “sexist,” he concluded that young people “just want to use these words: ‘That’s racist’; 'That’s sexist’; ‘That’s prejudice.’ They don’t know what they’re talking about.”
Jerry Seinfeld Draws Right-Wing Praise for Comments on ‘Extreme Left’
This is such a bummer. Tell me you’re a privileged, entitled, myopic Boomer without telling me you’re a privileged, entitled, myopic Boomer.
It’s interesting to me that he says these legendary sit-coms, none of which were cruel, punching down, or hurtful, but were actually satirizing power, celebrating women, changing societal norms through representation, and using comedy to do it all, wouldn’t exist if “the extreme left” had anything to do with it.
Umm. Who does he think created these shows? And is he really that ignorant? Has this guy never read a single interview with Norman Lear? Or literally anyone in the cast of Mary Tyler Moore? I mean. Come on, man!
Teenagers and college students don’t know what they’re talking about when they tell a privileged, entitled, multimillionaire Boomer that his “jokes” can be hurtful, and maybe he could use his tremendous talent to do comedy that is just as funny without being hurtful. Okay. Got it. Keep saying that, and see how far it gets you, buddy.
Hey, Jerry Seinfeld: when blue checks on Twitter are celebrating you being a dick, it’s not because you’re so funny and such a brilliant comic; it’s because they love how you’re validating what garbage they are. You can’t see that, or don’t care, and that’s such a huge bummer.

Not sure how many people are still listening to this podcast but I find it to be wonderful background noise while cleaning.
Anyway, may I suggest tuning in to the episode featuring John Lock. He was there from the pilot through season six. The way he got the gig was so fortuitous and crazy. It was interesting to hear how things worked with the band (and a little insane, imho). Plus, he's a lovely, sweet guy. Very enjoyable to listen to.

Just listened to the first episode of “and that’s what you really missed” and wow is it interesting. Lots of new information about Glee including previously unknown things like how Fox had pushed for a Blaine and Warblers spin off and Ryan said no…
Just the fascinating bts stuff about the formation of the show and what it was all like for them as actors and Ryan as show runner.
Definitely worth checking out if you were once or still are now a Glee fan.

Title: "flash-frozen in the driver's seat" Fandom: Midst (Podcast) Categories: G, Gen, No Archive Warnings Apply, Complete Word Count: 3613 Characters: Phineas Thatch, Tzila Guthrie
“Why do you have that?” Tzila asks. Phineas opens his eyes. She’s pointing at his abacus with the back of her pen. He looks down at it and frowns. “It’s my abacus.” “I know what an abacus is,” says Tzila, rolling her eyes. “Why do you have Caenum? Didn’t being a soldier and solving mysteries or whatever get you a ton of Valor?” Phineas and Tzila have a conversation in the quiet halls of the Lazaretto.
(hi everyone it's ME again! back with another midst missing scene i couldn't stop thinking about.)

Okay...pretty sure that the Jacob Artist "Without You" Darren is misremembering is actually "Let Me Love You," and he's right it SLAPS:

Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin ("Michael" S3 EP 11)
We've reached a "Thriller" of an episode, and that was just behind the scenes! 
Kevin and Jenna give us all the scoop on making the Michael Jackson tribute, including the good, like Kevin and Harry's successful pitch to Ryan, and the "Bad" ... Jenna reveals why this episode brought back a lot of traumatic memories for her. She details why filming this episode had her questioning her self-worth. 
Plus, Kevin admits that he and some of his co-stars went rogue, revealing the consequences of their actions, and the duo ranks the musical numbers!
Tumblr media
So, I finally had a chance to listen to this episode and I gotta say I'm surprised it caused so much angst amongst fandom.
I was prepared to be outraged but instead I felt bad for Jenna (Jenna unhinged!), happy for Kevin (Scream was awesome) and I agreed with their assessments of the songs. I'm a Klainer but come on. Ben? That entire scene was terrible. I never understood why Rachel and Finn were there instead of Sam and Santana, and I'll never forget that incredibly weak ass toast to Kurt (yayyyy...WTF?) I agree that Blaine's upcoming absence could have been explained away by a sentence in order to make room for "I Want You Back" which was great. Poor Grant.
Now, I agree that both Kevin and Jenna are still a bit salty about people (Darren) being excused to do other projects and I think it's sad Kevin ended up having to pass on movies because of the show. Apparently there was an obvious double-standard and that's too bad. I appreciate Jenna stating that it wasn't the fault of those who asked. It just was what it was. Fault belongs to Ryan and team.
At the end of the day it sounds like Jenna was simply exhausted and beyond done. Not excusing her behavior but I get it. They were young, overworked and no one was talking about mental health and the importance of stepping away back then. Couple that with seeing people get things you feel you can't ask for and never having any storylines (why am I even here?)...yeah. Hello unhinged behavior.
I know alot of people have stopped listening but huge THANK YOU to those of you who still listen and comment here on tumblr. I love Glee discourse even if it comes via a questionable podcast.

Idk what it is that makes me fixate so hard on one specific thing for years at a time, but I need it to chill out 😭 DnDads has been my only long-term media interest for like 1 and 1/2 years now, and it’s BORING to only like one thing ever lol I’m BORED!!! I need other things to be interested in, but I struggle with getting into new stuff (other than video games) sooo bad :(
That said, if you have DnD podcast recs that have interesting characters……… GIMME 👀 Also where the early episodes aren’t a nightmare to listen to 🙏 I have never listened to any other DnD podcasts, and I think it’s mostly bc the earlier seasons are always poor audio quality or like 3 hours long 😭 I’m also good with any type of narrative podcast. I just want compelling characters and platonic/familial dynamics pls. Stuff I can write sad shit about!! But also not TOO sad the whole time… maybe a little bit silly idk
So far, ones I’ve written down to listen to are Cast Party and Friends at the Table? I don’t know anything about either of them, though so? Also I keep seeing my mutuals posting Oxventure and Woe.Begone (although the latter isn’t a DnD podcast.. I think?) sooooo let me know your thoughts. And recommendations! Send me your propaganda! Tell me about your blorbos
