Thought this episode was going to suck as I felt Larry King wouldn't fit but it was great. The top youtube comment is right, he needs to get Rickles on.
Rickles and Norm? I think I would die from laughter.

Anyone able to get an audio only version yet?
Norm's sports show was very funny. I like pretty much all his comedy and with all the crap on TV that is not funny, this makes me sad.
That said I never have really used podcasts. So what do I need to do to get this on Android?
oh man that's awesome, nealon is funny when he can just talk.Kevin Nealon tonight - he's no Mel Brooks but should be good!
The ManGrate ad had me in tears.
Also what was the punchline for the Jiro Dreams of Sushi joke? Jiro Nightmares of...
youtube comments say they cut out a 9/11 and an Angelina Jolie joke from the original broadcast. Anyone know what they were?
Also, next week is Andy Dick. Everybody seems to hate him, but I find him funny.
They had a 9/11 joke in the episode...unless there was another that got snipped. Don't remember any Jolie jokes.
Apparently they had another, that went something like "The least popular name for an airline? 9/11 airlines". This leads me to believe they weren't cut because they were controversial or something, but just not very good. Couldn't find the Jolie one.
I got to say, Adam Egert has really come into his own after being pretty terrible at the start. I can't help but like the guy for some reason.

Yeah, and then they just laughed about 9/11 for a minute. Norm said something about 'wading through blood and bone'. Less of actual jokes than laughing at the concept of making 9/11 jokes.Apparently they had another, that went something like "The least popular name for an airline? 9/11 airlines".

I actually discovered Norm for the first time from this podcast (just a random recommendation by YouTube), I watched the Larry King one first and I laughed so hard it was so good. I checked many of the other episodes but the only other good one that I finished was the one with Super Dave, that was even more funny than the Larry King one. The rest of the episodes seem meh though.
I couldn't believe that I've never known who Norm was before, I proceeded to watch so many old videos of him on for days. The ones with Conan are hilarious.
Watch his Weekend Updates from the 90s on SNL (they're on Netflix and I think Hulu). They're amazing. The Nov. 11th, 1995 episode (hosted by Quentin Tatantino) has one of the best Norm Weekend Updates I've ever seen.
Heads up, Norm is the subject of the latest Larry King Now. Can't watch it myself though, damned geographic restrictions.
This works great to get around those geographic blocks. Hulu works for me with it:

I was going to type something similar to the below post but Margalis already did a good job.I've listened to two podcasts while I'm in the gym... I must look like a retard when I start laughing out of the blue lol
I don't know why but the mangrate bit (audio) only had my dying at the gym
Making people laugh at things that aren't funny because they know they aren't supposed to laugh is genius.
Like when he was doing that long Albert Fish bit and said "he only targeted mentally retarded and African American kids - now why do you think that is?" followed by "why are you laughing? Why is that funny to you?"
That segment was hilarious. It was like 5 minutes and funny throughout without a single actual joke until the very end.
Norm is awesome, I've always loved him. I even watched that sports show of his that lasted like 8 weeks a couple years ago.
I just had to shut off the podcast when Norm came back from the break with the grill commercial out of the blue. It's not even a fucking grill, just the grate. I was disturbing the office and trying to hold in the laughter was causing me to hyperventilate.
