Tony SquaresHOST
I know we've taken the show on for too long, but this is a good bit anyway.
Tony SquaresHOST
There's a comedian out there named Joe Pera that used to talk about the Buffalo Bills back when the Buffalo Bills were terrible.
Tony SquaresHOST
And he did a whole entire like five minute long spiel about how the Buffalo Bills actually really care about the family and they're full of family values because they're They lose so many games in October.
Tony SquaresHOST
That way you can spend November with your family.
Audrey HobertGUEST
And it was so funny.
Audrey HobertGUEST
I like Joe Pera, too.
Audrey HobertGUEST
Like, they're all kind of come from the same world.
Audrey HobertGUEST
You know, it's like that kind of guy.
Mary HoulihanHOST
Yeah, I just did it like full time for a while.
Mary HoulihanHOST
And then from doing that, my friend Joe Pera, he got a TV show and he said, I want to have each episode have a special painting.
Mary HoulihanHOST
So then I weirdly got this gig painting for a TV show for a couple of years.
Mary HoulihanHOST
And it's kind of funny.
Jonathan AllenGUEST
So they featured a painting on every episode?
Mary HoulihanHOST
Yes.
Mary HoulihanHOST
So each episode would be titled like, Joe Pera takes you to the grocery store.
Mary HoulihanHOST
Joe Pera talks you to sleep.
AdamHOST
I mean, some heads would have gotten knocked off, for sure.
DonovanHOST
If we're taking him as someone who maybe we wish had had a little bit more chance to spread its wings, although what I'm going to say for this one had some time, but I wish it was still around, growing and deepening and developing, then he's my Joe Pera.
BlaineHOST
Mm-hmm.
BlaineHOST
Though the complete opposite of the quiet reserve.
DonovanHOST
Oh, yeah.
DonovanHOST
He's my Joe Pera the show, not my Joe Pera the man.
AdamHOST
Yeah.
AdamHOST
What about, this may be too insane, but Devs only had the one season.
June SternbachHOST
That's one of my favorite lines.
June SternbachHOST
You ever watch Joe Pera Talks With You?
Josh BoermanHOST
Uh.
June SternbachHOST
I think it's Talks With You.
June SternbachHOST
Connor O'Malley has a character in it-
Josh BoermanHOST
Mm
June SternbachHOST
... where he's, like, teaching the Joe Pera character, like how, how he eats his breakfast sandwich, and he, like, lines it up perfectly.
Josh BoermanHOST
Mm-hmm.
Michael DixonHOST
... horror movie that's half competently made is deemed good, right? And it's like worth people going out to see in droves, and I don't understand why we as a society have such fascination with horror, but it just is what it is, and-
John GarciaHOST
It's, to quote Joe Pera, it's because the violence is ingrained in us.
John GarciaHOST
[laughs]
Michael DixonHOST
Yes, that's probably true to a large extent.
SarahHOST
It's kind of like Joe Parra.
SarahHOST
Joe Pera in his mind is like I'm fucking getting pussy later for sure
JoshHOST
you know that'd be so funny and to be fair bet he does I bet he does I bet that
SarahHOST
fucker does
Jon MeerdinkHOST
But I share all that to just say that this is what matters even more than the Packers being good or not.
Jon MeerdinkHOST
There's a comedian by the name of Joe Pera who does a whole bit on growing up being a Buffalo Bills fan in the late 80s and early 90s.
Jon MeerdinkHOST
And if you are a football fan of a certain age or if you know a little bit about your football history...
Jon MeerdinkHOST
You're probably just nodding your head in sympathy to a young man growing up in that part of the country at that age.
Beau MaddoxHOST
So let's go ahead and talk about the characters that, that appear here.
Beau MaddoxHOST
Like, I mean, for one, uh, a ma- a very prominent character is, of course, Joe Pera from Joe Pera Talks to You, which is, which became a very beloved show in a very short time.
Beau MaddoxHOST
You know, like, I mean, and, and I can see why.
Beau MaddoxHOST
I mean, it's just a very calming, you know, very just straightforward kinda show.
28 MINS LATER
Ashley ChancellorHOST
Yeah
Beau MaddoxHOST
... pulled off on it for a little bit.
Beau MaddoxHOST
But yeah, I mean, all the different eras, you know, like the, when the first live action era came, the live stream era, you know, and a- all the way up to when you started to have shows like Joe Pera, and, you know, Tuca & Bertie, Three Busy Debras, and Smiling Friends, Teenage Euthanasia, you know, and Royal Crackers, which, like, Adult Swim, come on.
Beau MaddoxHOST
Give Royal Crackers another season.
Grace Robin SomervilleGUEST
I-
Miranda ReinertHOST
One time me and my, our, our dear friend Ivan drove from Philly up to New York for an Advanced Base Christmas show that Joe Pera was opening.
Miranda ReinertHOST
And it was probably the f- quickest show...
Miranda ReinertHOST
Uh, we were definitely in the car longer than we were at Mercury Lounge.
Miranda ReinertHOST
And [laughs] it was like...
Miranda ReinertHOST
Uh, because there was almost no instrument turnover because someone else played music, but hers it was like, again, like, like a keyboard on a stand and a voice and like a little synth.
Miranda ReinertHOST
That, Joe Pera just comedy, and then Owen Ashworth again opening two cases and playing songs.
Miranda ReinertHOST
[laughs] So it was like-
