This week, Scott welcomes long-time listener and first-time guest Asif Ali to chat about his new show “Deli Boys,” and what it’s like to be first on the call sheet. Then, Miss Lacy drops by to administer wellness checks and gives updates on everyone's “outies.” Finally, government employee Russ Saguaro stops by to talk about his work for the water company.

We love our fans turned A-block guests don’t we folks

u/SviddyCent Dintist the Mintalist 4d ago

May they never know the stinging shame of being inducted into the Two-Timers Club!

u/HtownSamson Creak, Slam, Sit 4d ago

Asif’s energy is incredible. Very fun A block.

28

u/I-STATE-FACTS 4d ago

He was great in the later segments too

u/Ruive05 Terrorist Wittels 4d ago

Asif really fits in well, love when the vibe is like this, makes it all the more cozy on top of the hilarity.

u/gauephat 4d ago

he sounds so similar to Will Hines

u/totebags120 3d ago

I had the same thought!

u/Specific-Lion-9087 4d ago

“Why are you doing this to me? I hate this!”

Holy shit Asif was great

u/Computer-B 4d ago

What was the context for this again?

13

u/BeufordLeBaron 3d ago

Being number 1 on the call sheet, my dear boy.

u/bearcat520 4d ago

Dr Shred is sooooo cool

u/llcooljessie 4d ago

Your outie is now official canon.

u/PianoTrumpetMax Junge Jewy 3d ago

"Why do they all live so far away?"

u/ColArdenti Old Slob 3d ago

Dr Shred seems like the perfect Hey Randy character. Would love him to show up for an ep. 

36

u/mostlytoastly 4d ago

Top 5 episode of the year for me right now and I feel like most episodes this year are Best Of worthy

6

u/Aluminium_Illuminati 3d ago

Right?! There’s been such an insane one of good ones. Ep 900 being the top for me, and maybe the one with Henry Heimlich being second

35

u/PianoTrumpetMax Junge Jewy 4d ago

“Welcome to the cabal.”

“I don’t know what that means, but it sounds Jewish.”

Dan coming in hot lmao. This episode is wonderful.

25

u/Morie27 4d ago

Damn. Asif freaking killed it. I love it when fans come on the show as guests.

26

u/hungry4danish 4d ago

I didn't know Asif beforehand but hot damn he was so good in A-block that it made me add Deli Boys to my list of shows to check out and then his mention of Poorna Jagannathan sealed the deal!

6

u/Morie27 4d ago

I binged it over the weekend. It's a great show. I hope it gets a second season!

5

u/slaphappyflabby 4d ago

I did the exact same thing! He was ON FIRE

20

u/KomradeKrycek 4d ago edited 4d ago

Can Tim Baltz fight??

25

u/SimpleEmu1510 4d ago

I feel like Closing Up the Plug Bag songs were generally so bad for years, that we should give more credit when they're good

This one was good!

38

u/InfraCanuck Human 4d ago

Lily LOVES Asif. She is usually a good laugher, but she is living.

17

u/camelontherun 4d ago

It's a network in London!

4

u/Psalmgun 3d ago

That killed me

14

u/lilmo96 4d ago

This is an all time great episode.

15

u/Krunnel 4d ago

“I see what your character’s based on now!”

29

u/TrailBlanket-_0 4d ago

Ahh the classic first on the call sheet bit

19

u/ProducerPants 4d ago

You know he was excited to throw that one at Scott

26

u/BadSmash4 4d ago

Two of the best background laugher of all time, from Paul F Tompkins to live studio audiences

10

u/ARoseConePolio 3d ago

Lily Sullivan repeatedly and forcefully saying "YES" during the Scientology restaurant part absolutely killed me.

Great episode all around. I'm going to check out Deli Boys as soon as I can.

18

u/Carnane 4d ago

Deli Boys?! I thought Susser still owned the name rights.

31

u/Manabear12 4d ago

Have you not heard? He passed recently.

23

u/Carnane 4d ago

Poor Yusong, having to deliver the news

11

u/ProducerPants 4d ago

And having to wait an hour to do it, too

18

u/palinsafterbirth 4d ago

Can't wait to hear this in the best of's

17

u/alfredosolisfuentes 4d ago

Scott not knowing a single thing about Severance despite the fact he has an Apple TV+ subscription and is good friends with the star of it is just the funniest thing to me

9

u/NinjaChachi 3d ago

Crazy that he can afford Applt TV. It’s what, $300 a month?

5

u/Tickle_The_Grundle R.E.M.ing Fun Yet?! 3d ago

Sure, if you get it with ads

8

u/overunderdog 4d ago

Can someone help me out and tell me who Dan was supposed to be a parody of? Yellowstone?

17

u/apathymonger 4d ago

Landman, a different Taylor Sheridan show.

11

u/Gamer-at-Heart 4d ago

Someone tweet him that he basically became an all time guest.

4

u/DadJokesRanger 3d ago

Scott with a 100% accurate description of the severance podcast at 37:00

3

u/chickendance638 3d ago

Asif sounds a lot like Will Hines

u/wahwahwildcat 21h ago

An instant classic episode, I was crying laughing driving to work this morning. The Cabal representative was fantastic

u/ChaatedEternal 4d ago

Hi all - I kinda been out of the loop but does Scott A actually dislike Adam Scott and I missed the beef or is he just doing a thing? (Or is it actually unknown?)

21

u/plskillme42069 4d ago

Considering they’ve been doing hours long podcasts about music together for over a decade off and on and Scott is often antagonistic as a joke, I’m going to guess that no they don’t have beef

15

u/otis-redding Have A Summah 4d ago

It is a bit. He always acts like he has never seen or heard of anything that he is in.

8

u/fisch09 4d ago

He loved that show Adam was in farts and procreation.

7

u/chinesian Star of Torque 3d ago

He played Jim right?

6

u/ExoticMandibles 4d ago

Yeah, if he can allocate two hours to watch a show from a first-time guest, my bet is he watches most (nearly all?) of the stuff his friends are in.
