The History Of Curb Your Enthusiasm With Jeff Garlin & Susie Essman - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Huge fan of the show and podcast, and it’s all because of Susie Essman and the guests. I do enjoy Jeff’s insights from time to time. But dude, for a show that celebrates IMPROV, you sure do a lot of INTERRUPTING, NOT LISTENING, and NEGATING YOUR PARTNER. I recommend you take a class with Mick at The Annoyance and refresh your improv skills. And to reiterate, I do love the show.

This is a great podcast on curb. I see some people are annoyed at Jeff’s interruptions but he is who he is and has great stories. (And it seems Susie can deal with Jeff) I am hearing rumors that the podcast is going to stop which would be a HUGE disappointment. If true I hope Susie and Jeff reconsider. The stories they tell about each episode are fantastic as well as the guests they have had.

I love re-visiting all the episodes and hearing behind the scenes stories. Susie is great and tells good stories. Jeff also has good stories but disgresses too often and too far from topic. He’s better when he sticks closer to the topic.

Love every detail shared, people are really sensitive to the dynamic between Susie and Jeff, but I love it, even when he interjects haha. Brilliant guests and behind the scenes look of the best comedy show ever!! Bring it back!!

A lot of people have commented about Jeff, and I get it, but at least he adds anecdotes. My concern is that Susie just recaps each scene without adding much. Most fans already know what happens in each episode - we want more of the type of info that Jeff is adding. When they have guests, they barely let them talk and cut them off to go back to the synopsis. This is why I would stop listening—it’s very frustrating.

Agree with all the reviews that praise Susie and mention Jeff’s constant interruptions and ramblings that arent even funny despite his attempts at humor. Its so stressful every time Susie begins to speak knowing an abrupt, loud and rude Jeff interruption is coming. And his overused phrase “a big bowl of…” is so cheesy (ie Ted Danson is just a big bowl of funny). I used to listen all the time but now only check in occasionally to see if Jeff has curbed his behavior.
