YOU ARE NOT ALONE - A companion online community discussion board for The Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast with Paul Gilmartin

Glad they were finally on the show. I've been (im)patiently waiting for it since Paul was on their podcast. Loved it. It was great to hear them just talking without feeling like they had to be funny. In particular, the story about their show in Canada was the most intriguing. They mentioned it on their own podcast, but they didn't go into the emotion behind it. I really felt for him going on his own and putting himself in a very awkward and comfortable situation.. and he didn't even have to. Could have just cancelled it.

Also, this episode helped to individualize them more. I'm an avid listener of Sklarbro Country, but I still was never sure who was talking or what separates Randy from Jason and vice versa.

Yeah! I will be listening to this podcast again and again, to train myself to tell the two of them apart!

The Sklars keep talking about the generation of NYC comics above them, how, because they saw the Sklar's act so early, still think of the Sklars as hacks, and how it frustrates the Sklars. I wish I knew which comedian they were referring to - as far as I know, the only "comedian" that is a Sklar-hater is Andrew Dice Clay!

This was one of my favorites! Great interview.
