Today's episode is brought to you by the word: Magnanimous. What are we drinking today? Ernie Els Chocolate Wine. It's GOOOOOD! Our Better Recommendation: It's a podcast, but we're taking a turn away from the indie podcasts into the big ones, and we steal it to make our own bit. And we fail, successfully, at recreating it. The podcast? “May I Elaborate? with JB Smoove”. Are You Not Entertained??? We discuss Don't Look Up (Netflix) starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence, Cobra Kai (Netflix), and The Expanse (Amazon Prime). Deelo also talks about how he is living high on the hog by someone offering up their Disney+ account. The Ten Year Challenge - What were you doing ten years ago? We take a dive into some of the headlines from 2012. Truth “Ding” - you ever find yourself talking and you make a statement, then a text tone, bell ring, car crash, sex moan…whatever it is, it happens right after you say something? That's a “Truth ‘Ding'”. Tony had a lot of these happening today. Leave us a comment on Apple Podcasts, Google, YouTube, and other places where you may leave comments.

Listen to Simon say what he's doing to make a living in Miami after coming down from Canada, what he plans to do after taking 6 years of business entrepreneurship at MDC, how we both love and admire the hit series "Breaking Bad", and hear him elaborate on wise sayings with his philosophical and existential knowledge. If y'all need some daily wisdom, do tune out to the wisely words of the thoughtful podcast "May I Elaborate? Daily Wisdoms from J.B. Smoove".

Saluton, estas mi Tyson Saner and I welcome you to Succotash Epi257. Last week in Epi256, show creator Marc Hershon had a quartet of soundcast clips on offer to you from the soundcasts known as The Ron Burgundy Podcast, May I Elaborate? with JB Smoove, Comedy Has An Ouchie, and The Jock Doc Podcast. I can, with great confidence, say that it was an excellent show last week for potentially getting people interested in other folks' soundcasting efforts from around the globe. I do actually listen to episodes of Succotash that I don't host because I am also a fan of the show which, as we are wont to point out lately, has been going on for 10 years now. One of the side effects of listening to as many soundcasts as I have been for over a decade now is that my mind is constantly exposed to new information in a way that apparently sacrifices some of my ability to recall certain things. For example, in this week's edition of the show I've got clips for you from the soundcasts Blake's Takes for God's Sakes, Good Game Nice Try, and Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard…and I think I may have a memory of Succotash featuring clips from at least one of these soundcasts before…but I am not sure.…Also, I refuse to look it up because I am really not that worried about it. So why bring it up? I gotta write about something. Like the fact this episode is sponsored by Henderson's Pants new Pushover Pants! See? I'm really just making one-sided conversation with you. And speaking of one-sided conversations… Some soundcasts are hosted by one person, without a co-host and our first clip on offer is one of those: CLIPS Blake's Takes for God's Sakes Through (often incoherent) free-association, comedian Blake Wexler improvises 45 minutes of takes on subjects ranging from his own massive legs to the best animated bears of all time. Our clip was harvested from the episode that dropped May 26th, 2021. Good Game Nice Try What happens when a Twitch star joins forces with the brains behind Conan's Clueless Gamer? Pure video game magic! Each week Sonja Reid and Aaron Bleyaert nerd out with your favorite actors, musicians, comedians, gamers, and athletes who are as passionate about gaming as they are. From T-Pain venting about Pac-Man to AtomicMari becoming a real-life Lara Croft, guests share the games that they most loathe and love. Plus there will be epic stories, reviews, recommendations, and giveaways. I went back to the very beginning of this soundcasts' archive to take a clip from the first episode which posted on November 20th, 2020 and is called: T-Pain vs. Pac-Man. Armchair Expert with Dax ShepardDax Shepard loves talking to people. Endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, he finds people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy. With more than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology and four years of improv training, Dax attempts, along with producer/sidekick Monica Padman, to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection. In other words, an Armchair Expert. Our clips is snipped from Epi331 that dropped recently, on May 31st, 2021, featuring returning guest Vincent D'Onofrio (Full Metal Jacket, Jurassic World, Men in Black). After that we end up together…at the end. I hope you find some entertainment in this program, and that you might seek out more content from the creators that we're sampling for you. I hope you come back next week for more content from other people's soundcasts…or perhaps Mr. Hershon will do a "Chats" episode with a guest and you can enjoy THAT content. Maybe you'll go back thru our archive at www.succotashshow.com and find the mountain of entertainment that we've both made AND collected over the last 10 years…me for 8 years…maybe you will go to Apple Podcasts to rate and review our efforts favorably if it's how you feel about us. I hope you do. Maybe you'll tell other people about the content you heard within this or past episodes and recommend it to other people. That would be awesome. Maybe, you'll go to one of the many music purchasing websites that exist to buy a copy of the song "Hope" created by myself and onetime soundcaster and guest of Succotash Korey Epps. It has been available for purchase for a little over 2 years now. It's a little more than four minutes long and it costs somewhere between 1 and 2 dollars and then you can love it forever, and add it to your posi-corps dance party playlist to be enjoyed by anyone who is exposed to it. Trust me, it's worth it. I'll catch you again in Epi259 so, until then, be decent to each other and please don't forget to pass the Succotash. — Tyson Saner
Howdy, friend, and welcome to Epi256 of Succotash, the Comedy Soundcast Soundcast, which I am entitling “Playing Through A Foursome” because I, Marc Hershon, have precisely four comedy soundcast clips for you in this show. More on those in a moment. Did you happen to catch last week's episode 255 of our little show? That's when your every-other-weekly-alternating-host Tyson Saner took you on a tour of a trio of comedy soundcasts, including Childlike At Best with Mike Valdes, Shut Up, I Love It, and Distractible. It's never too late to catch that or any past edition of Succotash – in addition to the fleet of distribution points like Apple and Google Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, iHeart Radio, and more, you can always resort to our homesite, SuccotashShow.com. In fact, you can dip back into our storehouse of Succotash any time you want at our website, where every episode is archived and available for listening. What's more, if you want to get to the homesite of any of the shows we feature clips from or find the socials of the hosts and guests on those shows, you can usually find links on the blog entry that accompanies each episode – again – at SuccotashShow.com. (I know that Tyson takes great pains to read those links out during his episodes but I'm the executive producer of Succotash and I am – how to you say? – lazy. But those links are up for every episode regardless of who's hosting. And as a blanket back-announce for the clips you'll be hearing this episode, all are available on Apple & Google Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, and pretty much everywhere find soundcasts are streamed and/or downloaded. As for the foursome of awesome clips I'm sharing with you this week, I've got three from Column A and one from Column B. Column A in this case are clips from shows I harvested myself, which includes The Ron Burgundy Podcast, May I Elaborate with JB Smoove, and Comedy Has An Ouchie. Column B are those clips sent in by a soundcaster or listener and, this week, we enjoy another hit off The Jock Doc Podcast as submitted by host Dr. London Smith. In unrelated news, I'll be appearing as Guy Niçoise, a chef of reclaimed food products, with a bad French accent, on The Jock Doc Podcast a little later this month. This episode of Succcotash, the Comedy Soundcast Soundcast, is brought to you by Henderson's Pants, makers of the patented Pain Pants, designed to help you lose weight quick and painfully. Just before I get to the clips, I wanted to share some exciting news with you. We don't really have a great way to track how this show is doing in terms of ratings. With some many thousands of soundcasts in the world today, it's amazing that anyone can find us at all. But I got a note from someone named Carlos Tenor at a place called Pod Status and I guess they track rankings of shows. He wanted to let me – and by extension, you – know that Succotash is ranked 200 in the category Comedy Interviews on Apple Podcasts in China, and 241 in Germany's Apple Podcasts' rankings. So, if you were dying to know how we're faring in those markets – BOOM. Pretty much tastemakers and influencers in my book. CLIPS The Ron Burgundy PodcastWill Ferrell is back for his 4th season playing the title character in The Ron Burgundy Podcast, the guy he made famous as the blustering, not-very-smart, TV news anchorman in the movie Anchorman. Along with this long-suffering sidekick, Carolina Barlow, Ron is ready to take on the world again with commentary, interviews, and a mind that still doesn't quite seem to be all there. The new season kicked off just last week and our clip is from the first episode “Ron Takes The Vaccine.” Ron seems a little hesitant to actually get the shot. May I Elaborate?Another guy that consistently makes me laugh is JB Smoove, whether he's on Curb Your Enthusiasm with Larry David or guesting on a talk show or spouting words of wisdom. That's what he's doing now, five days a week, on his new soundcast May I Elaborate? Joined by Miles Grose, who selects some tidbit of wisdom from various sources – mostly self-help enlightenment desk calendars, I think. Then JB breaks those philosophies down as only he can. Warning that the following clip is un-bleeped and has some salty language, for those unfamiliar with JB's style. Comedy Has An OuchieA pretty new entry into Soundcastland is Comedy Has An Ouchie, hosted by Steve Han, Phylicia McLeod, and Ashley Whitehurst, a trio of comedy improvisors with their roots in the Chicago scene. But their newer generation of performers, the system in the comedy world is rife with problems both on the surface and behind the scenes. Each episode they kick around relevant topics and try to come up with some solutions. This clip is from their episode last week called “Chicago Is Where It's At” and they are right in the midst of the ideal comedy venue wish list. The Jock Doc PodcastOur final clip of the show comes from The Jock Doc Podcast, literally. Host Dr. London Smith sent along a clip from a recent episode, along with this note: “Sorry the file isn't in simple audio format, but my cohost sent this brief moment from this week's episode to me today in group chat and it was short enough that I thought it might be a nice goody for Succotash.” Love it, Doc. Thanks for thinking of us and we can convert pretty much any audio format into the thin, tinny-sounding show you're hearing now. He goes on: “The Jock Doc Podcast is an improvised comedy with the premise of being a medical education podcast. Listeners can find us at all major podcast platforms or just find links at JockDocPodcast.com Thanks! Dr. London Smith (.com)” Tyson's back next week with more soundcast clip fun and I might do an interview the week after that, considering how well this show is regarded in the Comedy Interview field in both China and Germany. In the meantime, if anyone should happen to ask if you have heard anything good lately, feel free to pass the Succotash! — Marc Hershon
