It's insane how likeable Bobby is compared to his actor, he's one of the nicest characters and then Steve Schirripa acts like an butthole you'd meet at a bar
Everyone says this but I've watched like 12 episodes so far and it's really not that bad. It's obvious Steve goes on stupid tangents sometimes but the podcast can be a decent listen in my opinion.
shrippa the shit rippa is a huge dunce, he's like the quintessential wop portrayed on the show, completely devoid of any self awareness
he's also a huge kiss ass so he probably DID act like Bobby all through the casting process but let's be real....they probably just hired this homie for his fat ass...he grew into the role both figuratively and literally
The whole podcast genre of washed up actors trying to cling desperately to their former glory masquerading about talking about the show that put them in the spotlight is insufferable and unlistenable.

i couldn't finish a single episode despite sopranos being my favorite show
it's just unbearable. I think podcasts are the lowest form of conversation in general.

They were honestly trying to get the podcast over with midway through. By the time they were on the fourth season they were bringing in people who didn't even watch the fricking show. Michael probably fricking regrets ever doing this
I'm a podcast fan and sopranos fan. The comments about Schrimpa on this thread are dead on. >did you hufta read fur David?
On top of that it is pretty limited subject matter and half the time Imperioli seems like it is the last place he wants to be. Although that may a result of having to deal with Steve.
calling him a leftist barely scratches the surface
he's the type of neurotic who styles himself as a zen hippie, can't stop talking about how he meditates and is into buddhism and clean eating and shit
and beyond that he's the most pretentious type of midwit

That describes all podcasts you need to be more specific. If I wanted to hear a gay man talk I'd hang out at your house.

Its all part of the character and actor casting. Bobby seems like a tall teddy bear, but when they show him menacing, he pulls it off really well.
Casting director was probably looking for "butthole first, but tender on the inside"
Was Bobby ever an butthole? Even when he punched Tony he was super drunk and defending his wife being insulted.
>I'd shoot myself, here, here, and here
Yeah Bobby could be a scary SOB when he needed to
shrippa the shit rippa is a huge dunce, he's like the quintessential wop portrayed on the show, completely devoid of any self awareness

He's israeli tho
Did they ever talk about Vito’s actor?
Once, to mention he pitched the gay arc to David
Afraid so
Yeah, why do they have guests on for only 5 minutes?
because theres not much to talk about anymore dude
What the frick would there be to talk about at this point?
The whole podcast genre of washed up actors trying to cling desperately to their former glory masquerading about talking about the show that put them in the spotlight is insufferable and unlistenable.
There are so many better Sopranos podcasts out there like PodaBing. This show is just
I really enjoyed it a few years ago when it had just started. Didn't have time to watch it so I stopped. What's bad about it now?
>This is the worst podcast ever.
what? how can you say that?
>YOU KNOW WHO MAKES A GOOD PODCAST
i just hate michael for never inviting johnny sack on because he's a trump supporter
michael is a massive wienersucker
My estimation of Michael Imperioli as a man just frickin plummited
he'll be devastated to hear that

Is there a more iconic duo than a midwit and a full blown moron?

What the frick is wrong with millenials? Why the frick would you watch/listen to this
don't fixate on stuff that doesn't concern you... just walk along
You're shitting up my board and create podcast threada instead of comfy Sopranos threads so yes it does concern me.

I've never liked anything enough to want to watch a podcast about it, even The Sopranos
They were honestly trying to get the podcast over with midway through. By the time they were on the fourth season they were bringing in people who didn't even watch the fricking show. Michael probably fricking regrets ever doing this

The Always Sunny podcast is good, maybe Talk Ville
>The Always Sunny podcast is good
I haven't watched this. Is it true Michael Imperioli is a leftist in real life?
calling him a leftist barely scratches the surface
he's the type of neurotic who styles himself as a zen hippie, can't stop talking about how he meditates and is into buddhism and clean eating and shit
and beyond that he's the most pretentious type of midwit
they need to bring vito on
he would try to pull a “joke” on michael and steve
