NOTE: This podcast was originally uploaded with an audio glitch
that made all the clips from "Let's Get Small" inaudible. That's
now fixed. But you may have to delete and re-download this episode
if you got it early (early being the first half-day it was
available). When their guest can't make it, hosts Anthony and
Will make it about their own obsession with Steve Martin! Anthony's
favorite movie is L.A. Story and Will is obsessed with Steve's
first stand-up album Let's Get Small. So they talk about those two
things for the whole time! Why did Steve's weird meta stand-up
work? Why does it not hold up for everyone? What is it about LA
Story that lets the sentimentality work? We talk about Bowfinger,
and SNL, and his unfunny stuff, and his plays and his New Yorker
writings and his banjo, and how Will stole a Steve Martin bit for
his own 30th birthday party and... you know what? we just like
Steve Martin a whole bunch.
