Best Podcaster of the YEAR
Dec 20, 202400:15:24Tap to summarizeBecome a producer on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/VeryNadavShow Someone made a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VeryNadavShow/ With the year coming to a close, we're discussing my favorite breakout podcaster of the year, Matan Even. Starting out as an activist and one of the youngest internet trolls, it's truly impressive what Matan Even has built in a short amount of time. Have we found a solid replacement for chaos that The Eric Andre show once filled? I think so. I analyze appearances with Howie Mandel, The Legion of Skanks, Togi, Mikki Mase, Whitney Cummings and more to explain why I think Matan deserves to be podcaster of the year.
Transcribe →Origin Story: Dr. Phil Character by Adam Ray
Dec 13, 202400:15:06Tap to summarizeBecome a producer on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/VeryNadavShow Someone made a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VeryNadavShow/ Today we're talking about the breakout star of the last year and a half, Adam Ray and his character of Dr. Phil. I talk about how he was able to finally convince me that a good impression is fun to watch, and how all of his well rounded talents allow him to shoot from the hip with the character and land most of his shots. I go over the origin of the character by showing some of Adam's old standup clips and an excerpt from an LA Times article by Ali Lerman. Has any comic had a more impressive and justifiable rise than Adam Ray?

Nov 29, 202400:12:27Tap to summarizeBecome a producer on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/VeryNadavShow Someone made a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VeryNadavShow/ Considering it's Black Friday, there's gonna be deals online all over the place. If you're trying to buy some equipment, now might be a good time to either get your starter mics or upgrade your current setup. I run through all the microphones I've used and the extremely anecdotal pros and cons of each microphone. An audio engineer or a sound mixer will have different and more in depth opinions, but that's nerd stuff. I'm gonna share the practicality and price point fo each one.

Transcribe →Drumline Movie Review
Nov 15, 202400:14:59Tap to summarizeBecome a producer on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/VeryNadavShow Someone made a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VeryNadavShow/ I've shelved this movie review for close to a year, but the people want it. On the surface, Drumline is a really good movie, but if you look a little closer, it's possibly one of the best movies of all time. I have no doubt this movie will get admitted into the Criterion collection and Nick Cannon will be inducted in the acting hall of fame or get a Nobel prize for his performance. Is Drumline about a fatherless kid trying to make his way through the world in this coming of age story? Or is it really a social commentary about how we deal with special needs in today's society? I'll let you be the judge. What should I review next?

Use code NADAV to get a 100% deposit bonus at https://bit.ly/betwithNADAV Become a producer on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/VeryNadavShow Someone made a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VeryNadavShow/ If there's anything we learned during this election season, it's that Baron Trump has been giving pretty solid advice to his dad on what podcast circuits to hit on the campaign trail. A more interesting story to me is how/when YouTube chooses to suppress views to some of those videos, and what the options are when that happens. Weather a video is being utilized as a campaign tactic or just a video that barely aligns with views of some decision makers at YouTube, it's wild when you can see a video getting throttled with nothing to do about, like the guys over at Channel 5 News. If there's anyone that's been a champion of free speech, love him or hate him, has been owner of Tesla, Space X, and x/Twitter, Elon Musk. Does this mean Twitter is a viable place to upload your content? Like everyone on YouTube, we analyze what Mr. Beast has been doing, and then basing our decisions on what he's ultimately decided.
Transcribe →Tony Hinchcliffe Pisses People Off Over Trump Rally
Nov 1, 202400:16:01Tap to summarizeBecome a producer on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/VeryNadavShow Someone made a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VeryNadavShow/ This week's episode is special. Everyone from AOC to any other political pundit is talking about how terrible of a choice Tony Hinchcliffe was for Donald Trump's political rally, but to me, this is a HUGE milestone for the comedy space. For an industry that mainly sold flesh lights and men's wellness pills, comedy podcasts sure are taking a bigger slice of political campaign strategy than anyone ever expected. Presidential candidates and their running mates are going on podcasts like Call Her Daddy, This Past Weekend with Theo Von, Flagrant, Club Shay Shay... they're even hiring comedians to perform jokes at their rallies. And people are scrutinizing these jokes like children that don't understand the purpose of a joke... a statement that prioritizes making you laugh and throws truth to the wayside. What a time to be alive.
Transcribe →Brendan Schaub VS Nate Diaz
Oct 25, 202400:12:11Tap to summarizeBecome a producer on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/VeryNadavShow Someone made a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VeryNadavShow/ So Brendan Schaub and Nate Diaz reignited their beef and it's getting HEATED. I give context from their encounter in 2017 at the Conor McGregor VS Floyd Mayweather boxing match to Nate making fun of Brendan for getting emotional over Shane Carwin's state. I show some of my favorite moments from the 20 minute rant on The Schaub Show and how badly I want to gamble on this fight. Who do you have winning this fight?
Transcribe →Tim Dillon Trashes His Movie
Oct 18, 202400:15:50Tap to summarizeThe new Joker movie is out, Tim Dillon is in it, critics absolutely hate it, and Tim piles on to it. In this episode we review some of the most insane things I've heard an actor say about the film they're in. We take a look at what he had to say about the Todd Phillips movie with Annie Lederman and on The Tim Dillon Show, and compare it to how Sam Morril and Marc Maron talked about the original Joker movie. Was it insane for Tim to take this approach? Definitely. But does it makes sense for him in the long run? Lets analyze it.
