It’s a fantastic comedy podcast that promotes the best comedy and is a joy to listen to throughout bc even the conversations they keep the levity and squeeze the comedy out of all scenarios

This is absolutely one of my favorite podcasts. Every episode offers another turn of the diamond that is comedy. It’s an absolute master class!

Please don’t listen to this. Its so self arrogant and self serving. The comedians are good but they diminish their talent.

Good One is a work of art all its own … a seemingly limitless source of both laughter and insight into the ever-evolving culture of comedy in America.

Great guests supported by incredibly thoughtful and thorough interviewing. The preparation is laudable. Keep crushing!

Sam Morril even noted how good of an interviewer Jesse David Fox is in his episode. I really love how Jesse pushes to understand the mechanics of a bit, the choices a comedian makes about what parts to include or not, and the process that goes into determining how that joke ultimately comes out....Read full review »

Regardless of what medium you are creative in, it's always fun to hear an artist break down their process. And when you've got an interviewer as good as Jesse at the helm, it's super educational, too. A must listen show.Read full review »

Is talking about comedy interesting? Not often. But even when Jesse David Fox asks about “artistic process” you learn about the person behind the mic. Kathleen Madigan interview was sooo interesting. Listen!

Really good talk. Thanks.

I went to the mall today for the fifth time this week. While I was walking through the shops I stepped on a piece of gum. Now I keep getting more and more ATTACHED to this place 🥁

Jesse is such an insightful archeologist of comedy.
Janice on Guitar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/23
I typically enjoy the content of the show, but every episode has at least 2 to 4 major audio glitches. Suddenly the audio will rewind a couple of minutes or cut forward and I find myself baffled, trying to unravel the narrative. Podcasts with a fraction of your audience have impeccable production...Read full review »

This has been such an enjoyable and informative podcast! I am getting more into joke writing and humor and this is a fun way to explore the “why” and “how” of jokes. Thanks for creating this!

Wow! First listen and LOVED the interview with James Acaster. Thoughtful questions and a host that doesn’t interrupt the guest, what a delight.
tiffintx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/17/22
I’ve been listening to good one since almost the first episode. One of the things that impresses me over and over again is how much the comedians seem to appreciate the in depth, specific questions about their art. Perfect example from a recent episode: “I don’t give many interviews, and this was...Read full review »

Good best podcast
loganthe best via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/13/22
Have loved this podcast for years. Jesse brings it every time with his skilled interviewing style, excellent curation of guests and their bits, and moreover, his dedication to learning about the guests and their material prior to their appearance on the show. All of that said, having the...Read full review »

LOVE comedy and what a CLEVER idea for a podcast. I enjoy hearing the comedy routines and listening to the story behind the jokes. It’s so REFRESHING. Who doesn’t enjoy a good WARM-HEARTED LAUGH, especially during these interesting times. BRAVO to the HOST, the GUESTS, and the A-TEAM that make...Read full review »
CiaoBeya via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/22
But I just can’t get into it. Jesse David Fox is one of the least engaging hosts, especially given the subject matter. I feel like he’s too academic with his line of questions and doesn’t dynamically respond to what the guests are saying and just plows through his list even if they’re...Read full review »

I am a comedy nerd. I love comics’ comics. I love interviews with stand-up and improv comedians. I love the dissecting of a how comedy works. One of my proudest moments in life was when I waited on Drew Carey and I said something that made him laugh. So, already, this podcast is up my alley. I...Read full review »

I love you guys, but get frustrated during the specials roundups, which could benefit so much from some gentle editing. A lot of conversational filler before we hit the point. It's like eating a pomegranate.Read full review »

Love it
Jaiehdhdksnahah via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/10/21
Jesse and his comedian guests make it clear how comedy is an art form. I love the vibe and always stay interested even when I’ve never heard of the guest.
Scrapyard via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/09/21
Best comedy podcast out there. I look forward to every interview
hops9000 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/27/21
Probably the best podcast on comedy (not just stand up) that I’ve heard.
gardnj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/12/21
I had seen it before but was crying hearing this bit again. Going from “I wouldn’t have gotten the lettuce” at Chipotle to articulating the sheer underlinable principle of existential despair...brilliance.

“Like” ... “Ya know?” ... “I mean...”
J. Steven via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/06/21
I love this show so much! As a self-confirmed comedy nerd, this pod might not be everyone; it’s super granular and if you don’t keep up with specials or have broad knowledge I concede that it could be boring. BUT I LOVE IT & JESSE SO MUCH. He delights in digging into the writing, the...Read full review »

The respect and care that Jesse David Fox offers each comic in this podcast is astounding and beautiful. I love this podcast, I love the depth and detail of every conversation, and I want to listen to every episode.

makes me laugh and think and then I think about the laughing and then I laugh again
Gompy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/10/21
There is so much programming around talking to comedians about comedy, but this podcast stands above them all. Jesse has an infectious enthusiasm for the craft. He asks thoughtful questions that reveal the inner workings of my favorite, or soon to be, comedians showing how much effort and care it...Read full review »

I learn SO much from this podcast and appreciate the comedians I already loved even more! Such insightful questions from the host. Love this.

Jesse is such a great interviewer. So smart and kind. He brings out the best in his guests.
Lady American via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/16/21
Love the discussion. Lost me at the stool rating though. I get the meaning but Sounded awful every time someone said 1 stool,4 stool, 4 1/4 stool. Maybe a Mic (rophone) rating would sound better.
Nava208 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/21
Excellent podcast!
Edwin JP via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/03/21
You can really tell that Jesse puts so much time and effort into each and every one of these episodes. Love them and the show!
Anenanaa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/22/20
Jesse David Fox has an uncanny ability to be both disarming and provocative with his guests, delving deeper into the mechanics of jokes than anyone else. If you want to learn anything about comedy, listen to this podcast.

Great interview! I watched her special it was special, hilarious, and thoughtful

The Machine- best comedy investigation podcast analyzing the best story joke. Like he said “Comedy orgasm”

I’ve really enjoyed this podcast. Have only heard the Marc Maron, Taylor Tomlinson and Michelle Wolf episodes. All great, but the Michelle Wolf episode was so funny. I was already a big fan, but love her more now. Update - I feel like this podcast was made for me. I really enjoy how most...Read full review »

Jesse over explaining the laughening round to every guest is the ultimate joke, all other comedians can stop trying
jennnreviews via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/25/20
I love Good One so much! One of my favorite things about this podcast is when the subject gives Jesse David Fox props on how thoroughly he researched before the interview. This happens a lot, and yet every time it’s always so impressive!
chelsea.killya via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/21/20
It’s like slippin’ on a banana peel in slo-mo and HD and from the immersive angels of VR.
Boost Ventilator via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/29/20
I love the host’s approach to interviewing and the intimacy that’s fostered in each episode. Being obsessed with comedy and then getting to hear a comedian breakdown a bit or a joke is just so gratifying. Love love love. Birbigs recommended this podcast in one of his episodes. And I found Mikes...Read full review »

I find everything about this podcast to be perfectly delightful...the insightful, in-depth interviews with comedians that I really enjoy make certain episodes instant classics...I find myself going back and listening to them over and over again...

these interviews are really good
Spiror44 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/20
Such great guests. Good stuff. The word “like” must however be banned. It sounds middle school girls talking by their lockers during passing time. <<grumpy old man?, perhaps?>> It truly does detract from the otherwise high quality. Thank you.
