The same reason I love Jay Mohr is the same reason he hasn't had the success of other comics; He is too honest and won't be fake. He speaks his mind and says what he thinks is funny. Jay Mohr is so under-appreciated it sucks.
I believe Jay can't believe he isn't bigger. I think this impression of arrogance really hurts him. Humility he aint got. I don't disagree that he should be bigger, but the business is a bitch. See: Patrice O'Neal
Not on here. Reddit is a fucking echo chamber. Love them both, but they are also arrogant pricks who offend a lot of people. I'm not one of them, but I wish Ricky would get off his soapbox. Mad respect for Louis, though. Getting Emmy's the right way.
I remember listening to the original interview before Jay called and thinking that Louis and Gervais sounded like a high school cool kids clique. Glad Mohrs called them out.
JMohrs is so god damned perceptive. He's been one of the most interesting comics that has become sober and is very refreshing when he talks about addiction and depression.
It's fucking nice to hear from people like that, but from someone who has been there and done that - with both his podcasts and recovery - it gets tired. It's good that he reminds himself in most of his shows by bringing it up, but it's also kind of a downer.

Exactly!

His Colin Quinn impression slays me. It was awesome today when he did most of the show as Colin.

A great one was that "epic phoner" one-
Norton: He's like Colin with better lines!
Mohr(as Quinn): Shutup, dummy.

He does an uncanny Tracey Morgan, and his Christopher Walken was one of the first and still best.

He needs to start doing phoners as Colin to other shows.

Refreshing to hear them shit on.
Ricky and Louis are two guys who can't buy bad press right now.

This is interesting considering Louis had nothing but nice things to say about him on today's show.

Lou shit on Jay before this incident, though. They've known each other for years. And Jay has had plenty of nice things to say about Lou before.

Fuck that. Jay is like a dog, just living in the moment without any perception of time.

A bad dog.

That's right, I completely forgot...he essentially kept his mouth shut for the rest of the time there then got on the phone.
