    Joel has aged like a fine wine, incredible actor and seems like a great guy
  • @FlavieFreedom
    Joel McHale is always a great interview guest. He's open, honest, and entertaining. Plus he seems to be very hardworking, deserves his success.
  • @tusia20_85
    I have been watching Neal’s podcast every week since he started and I still can’t get over how he does his ads 😂 he’s hilarious
  • @Javmon9
    I never missed Talk Soup & Soup. It was the highlight of the week. I especially love when a talk show host would visit and make fun of themselves.

    Where do I get my "AYAHUASCA IS THE PICKLEBALL OF DRUGS" shirt?!

    I love that Joel unironically ascribed a Nietzsche quote to Craig Ferguson 😂
  • It was so nice to see Joel McHale so genuine and open. He is always cast as a mean person.
  • Loved the Soup!! Going to share this episode with my 20 year old son, love that you kept with it, my son needs to know that everyone is out there just trying their best, find what you like and give it your all!!
  • The Soup was one of my favorite shows. Pop culture needs to be roasted!
  • @ListerTunes
    Will Hagle, you are a stone cold killer for that cutoff at the end. Excellent editing as always.
  • @colesteele1
    I completely forgot about Joe. Hard to believe Community came out in 2009. What a great show!
  • @b0000kify
    I do not have gratitude how "The Joel McHale Show with Joel McHale" only had one season
  • @dakeli
