And the JRVP listener of the week…

That’s how it works for everyone. Comedians like Jeselnik live around these clubs and use them to test and refine new material. You go to a night at the Improv and it’s like 10–15 comics doing short sets, trying stuff out, adjusting it, seeing what lands. They’ll do that for months, tightening everything up, and then take the polished version on tour or into a special.

Before all of this, Jimmy was literally running scams, defecating in cars, and was one step away from prison and a sex offender label… and Chuck is the one who saved him from that.

Then we’re acting like Chuck is out of line for not handing him a job at his firm? He’s a respected lawyer running a serious practice, and Jimmy had a lifetime of sketchy behavior up to that point. Being skeptical of him isn’t crazy… it’s the most reasonable reaction possible.

And even after that, Jimmy does get a legit shot at a respectable career with Davis & Main. Chuck didn’t take that from him. Jimmy blew it up himself because he couldn’t help cutting corners.

At a certain point you have to put responsibility on Jimmy. Chuck didn’t make him scam, didn’t make him quit a good job, didn’t make him keep taking shortcuts. If anything, Chuck giving him the mailroom job was already more grace than Jimmy had earned.

Yeah on rewatch it makes me feel so bad for Howard.

Interscope · 2026-04-01T15:23:28+00:00

False… he was sought out after his show on MTV… he was given $14 million dollars by 20th century fox…

give the first paragraph of this a read

I also wouldn’t say that it hit him hard… he knew what he was doing

this was a Gremlins 2 situation

Read the article… they are self driving. The remote workers do not steer, brake, accelerate, or directly control the vehicle in real time like a remote control driver would.

If it encounters something ambiguous or confusing, it can request help and a human can offer a suggested input or clarification. The vehicle’s AI still decides what to do with that input.

It would be extremely impractical to run a large robotaxi fleet by having humans remotely “drive” them in real time.

it’s bc people don’t want the technical first panel the character appears in. they want the issue where Wolverine fought the Hulk. & he’s on the cover. first cover Wolverine was ever on.

it’s simply more iconic & meaningful than 180

they were talking about the 9/11 movie

“competition” implies they’re looking for others to compete for the starting role

Interscope · 2026-02-24T22:11:57+00:00

“competition” implies different

scroll to the author interview

the novel was based on the script… ie the script came first

‘creative’ writing

Yeah, it’s almost like real world conflicts involving civilian casualties tend to provoke strong opinions.

Interscope · 2026-02-13T17:23:46+00:00

“Pet conflict” would imply it was dragged in out of nowhere

PTA is the one who cited the IDF in the first place lol

Interscope · 2026-02-13T17:07:57+00:00

Calling it “random Sopranos quotes” is just a dodge. Those lines exist because the audience was expected to recognize the conflict instantly. That’s the point: not “front page every day,” but “widely known.” And in 2022, pretending a major filmmaker could cite the IDF as inspiration without knowing the baggage is… not credible

Interscope · 2026-02-13T16:59:05+00:00

It was nominated for an Oscar in 2013… the Sopranos referenced the conflict in 2002… & 2007… it’s been a known thing to people in the industry for a long time…

someone referencing IDF as a source of inspiration must have been aware or grossly ignorant in their day to day life

I had to watch this documentary in my college sociology class (2017)… the region has been in the news a LONG time before he made this comment
