@Good-Hang-with-Amy-Poehler is the best podcast. Sending love from Malaysia π²πΎ β€οΈ π π π
I came RIGHT to the comments, Iβve seen zip zero of this video yet, just to say YAY FRED ARISMEN!!! FRED ARMISEN AND AMY POHLER π₯³!!! What an unexpected treat.
Also, I did catch sight of a comment asking for CARRIE BROWNSTEIN. YESSS! I mean how is it that there are two people so matched in musical and comedic genius and they found each other and they worked together producing amazing comedic art together over a consistent period?! The universe is great!
I now understand Bill Hader's impression of Fred π
Emotional BONER!
YAAAYYY
Love this show, love Fred, and my mind is blown, yet not surprised, that he mentioned NoMeansNo!
2:00 "Hey….you remember that time when you were awesome and I thought you were awesome? Yeah, that was awesome."
8:12 This is 4-Star General or Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Obvious.
Portlandia limited series?!?!? Maybe a criminal investigative procedural or heist format?
Other than Talking Heads "Stop Making Sense" live show, the English Beat with The Specials was the second best show EVER. Joan Armatrading gets the bronze. and I've seen 80 Dead shows, and 100 other bands. People in F'ckin' wheelchairs stood up and danced in those three shows! They were MIRACLES.
Mi scusi
Love love love β€οΈ iβm just a baby!
Day made
them being in matching khaki is CHEFS KISS !!!
Isnβt he said to be a really nasty person in real life?
This is such an incredible interview. I always thought Fred learned how to play drums by simply improvising.
πππππππππ
Maybe the greatest impression of someone from Beaumont, TX of all time. I feel seen.
Interviewing Alex Honnold, a whole new meaning to "A good hang" π

Fred is one of the funniest people on the planet. As soon as I hear the Portlandia theme I'm all smiles and happiness. β€
Amy, please let the guest tell their stories uninterrupted.
Amy 100% thought he was a Blue Man in the Blue Man group until this interview
I have never thought of it before, but I think my husband and I quote something from one of his roles more than any other comedian. There are so many π
Also, please have Carrie on!
If you donβt like and subscribeβ¦ jail.
Shout out Beaumont, Tx
We all know Amy is 100% Pawnee native
