    I hope it comes back
    James Adomian is such an insane talent. The people he gets for the podcasts are also brilliant. I really hope the show returns from hiatus.

    Brilliant Company during These Pandemic Days
    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. The humor, intelligence and irreverence of this podcast allows me to laugh out loud - something that gets harder to do each day in self isolation. Sheer brilliance and the perfect antidote for these uncertain times.
  • Cash Dodds
    Heroic
    James, the vocal component of your impressions are dead-on and yet you manage to top the style with substance - the material is brilliant.
  • ErikVogt
    Good Podcast
    I listened to several episodes and chuckled and agreed and was entertained.

    James Adomian is the perfect blend of impressions and improvisation. His ability to tap into the essence of a character (real person) and the things that make them funny is truly amazing. And he’s bringing in fantastic friends to act with - so much fun. Thanks for the podcast!!
  • Diggldoo
    Finallllllyyyy!!!!!
    James is the best and finally he has his own podcast from which we can worship his greatness!
  • Lifelong dolphin fan
    Finally 💗
    I’ve been a huge fan of James for a long time now. I love all the other podcasts he goes on but needed more. Finally we get all the hilarious mimicry all to ourselves. Enjoy and thank me later. He had Bernie on his podcast for God sake. 👍🏼👏🏼💗

    Genius
    Adomian’s brain is some kind of marvel. It works at super sonic speed and has a never ending reservoir of references and knowledge. He’s also one of the best impressionists I’ve ever heard. This podcast is the perfect way to deliver that entire package. The guests can be hit or miss, but he’s always killing it.
  • DarlingDebussy
    love all the songs!
    I love this man, and I’m in awe of his talent. Every minute spent listening to James Adomian doing character work is a blessed way to spend your time on earth. A huge bonus for me is that there’s always a song performance at the end of each episode in character-they are sublime and sublimely hillarious!
  • Schmelson
    Genius
    James Adomian is the best and funniest impressionist of our time, and this is the perfect showcase for his genius.
  • EternalRonnie
    So good.
    This pod reminds me of the aural stylings of the Firesign Theater from the 1970s. James Adomian is a national treasure. I'm not a weed person, but it would make total sense to get high and listen to this podcast.
  • Feargus OConnor
    I think I’m in love....
    He’s not only a fabulous mimic, he’s really smart. His take on Bill Clinton made me fall off a ladder.
  • sushicigar
    Adomian is a generational talent
    Impressionists are rarely good at other things but James is a comedy genius and deserves to be insanely famous. The Elon Musk episodes alone are worth a Patreon subscription
  • Paul Ron
    Hooked!
    Subscribed and gave it 5 Stars after the first half of the first episode. Quick, clever, and original. This is the first time I’ve actually written a podcast review on this platform.
  • rabidsavage
    Well done sharp commentary
    Very funny podcast. Great impressions. Sharp commentary. Funny dialogue. So well done. I hope it gets huge.. wish we could get adomian on JRE for some quick exposure.
  • PatrickHorne
    James is the best
    That’s it.
  • velvetmadman
    And so on and so forth
    James Adomian’s Zizek is nothing short of inspirational.
  • Irina Mumu
    Listen and enjoy !
    James is my favorite comedian. I enjoyed listening to all episodes. I loved when he was a guest on Todd Glass show several times and dreamed that he would start his own podcast. Now this dream is a reality and a gift to all.
  • Michael J Close
    So goddamn funny & smart
    James Adomian is an unbelievably talented impressionist and improviser. his passion and intelligent observation of politics & society elevates his work into something formidable. Absolutely my favorite podcast in any genre!
  • BrianRses
    So Much Joy!!!
    This show brings me so much joy. I'm one of those dorks who always "did voices" as a kid, so I appreciate this fine art being taken to its zenith... and being pushed so far that they fall off... And I love it. Seriously, James and friends make me laugh out loud in the most inappropriate places. A much loved and much needed addition to the leftcasting universe.
  • madM0uth
    Get this in your life
    James Adomian is a comedy god and we must all download and listen on repeat.
  • academyspatula
    Finally James Adomian has his own podcast!
    I’m beyond excited that this podcast finally exists and I can’t get enough of it. James and all of his guests are freakin hilarious. What more could you want in a podcast?
  • kks112233
    Please keep making this podcast, James!
    This is my fave kind of podcast. A talented comedian, doing comedy improv, as a character.
  • libbykp
    Needs more Governor Jesse "The Body" Ventura.
    Hilarious and topical. If I could change one thing, though, it would be the intro that Forever Dog makes you use because that thing is ear murder. UPDATE: Don't think you can pander to this review just because you've put Jesse on the last two episodes. A 24/7 feed of the compound in Cabo wouldn't be enough!
  • Ryonlinerson
    James Adomian \m/ !!!!!!!
    I love James. Love his thoughts, his impressions, his wit and comedy. If ever there were someone to follow on social media, he’s the dude! Killer podcast.
  • Rinisaurus
    James Adomian is the BEST
    Not only an extremely talented comedian and impressionist (impression doer?), James Adomian has a strong grasp of the absurdity of our political culture, which he exploits to hilarious ends.
  • Hannah Blair Pseudonymously
    Hell yeah
    The Bush and Biden sketches in episode 5 were so funny I was afraid I would die.
  • transparent things
    Amazing
    I love James Adomian and this podcast is everything I could hope for. Beautiful, silly, wonderful fun.
  • cm547394
    I wish all comedy was like this
    James isn't just an impressionist doing caricatures. He's not going for low hanging fruit. He's a super funny dude reaching for more creative jokes and deeper social commentary. Each episode is refreshingly unpredictable. There's so much organic wittiness per minute in every bit, which is something special in this age of 2-hr podcasts. What's baffling to me is how he and his guest comedians can perform such intelligent stuff on top of keeping the jokes rolling. James, if you read this, don't stop doing all those lesser known niche impressions (like Slavoj Zizek and so on and so forth), because some folks already know them well and those who dont enjoy discovering them. Also dont be afraid to cut away from longer interviews sometimes to keep the flow fresh. Hope the Patreon support keeps growing and the show keeps showing.
  • Impops
    Funny
    This guy is great.. glad for LPOTL recommendation
  • Doug Hahner
    Fun show
    James and his guests are all great comedians and impressionists. I have laughed at every episode.
  • PatrickJRex
    Can’t stop laughing
    Honestly one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard. Just finished the Maron vs. Rip Taylor episode, which was utterly brilliant. If you’re not listening to this, stop what you’re doing and give it a listen.
  • FailingSince1976
    Original and Funny
    The Gorka / Ayn Rand and Chris Matthews / AOC are classics. There is rich political humor throughout the segments. I am hoping there will be a Tom Leykis / Jordan Peterson or Ben Shapiro segment in the future. The ads within the segments seem to foretell future guests. I know it must be a logistical nightmare to put these together, but I hope they continue for a long time. I am anticipating the return of guests like Gorka and Matthews as well.
  • Taco inferno
    There are not enough podcast out there
    Thank jebus Adomian finally has his own podcast. It’s a five star idea so who cares if I there are no ep to listen to I still think it’s worth a rave review. Good luck out in this desolate world of podcast, I know this will shine with a little time. P.s. make a baby with Tim Dillon P.p.s. You should go on legion of skanks those guys are hilarious
  • minne jj
    James Adomian is brilliant
    Nobody is funnier or more talented than James Adomian, simply brilliant! I can’t get enough of his comedy, voices, impressions, silliness.... This podcast is my new favorite

    Brilliant satire
    James impressions are right on and had the political and philosophical knowledge to back them up 110%

    James Adomian is the best
    I’m so happy he finally has his own podcast (though he should definitely have his own show by now)

  • Tacuvito
    The podcast is super entertaining, absurd, and sad
    Very funny. The absurdity of the sketches are so close to the current political punditry. Great job.
