“Stopped listening smack in the middle of the "Schwience" episode, because Kevin Smith had the comedic timing of a vaginal infection. Jen Schwalbach has sharp ideas (for a woman who over articulates "mother f-rrrrrrrr" ad nauseam), and a LOT to offer the podcast, if Kevin would just shut up. Completely unlistenable, and an entirely embarrassing lead-in to the launch of the SIR network.
Really wanted to like this from day 1, as I was interested to see which direction they would take the show, but I'm over it now. Knowing deep down that Kevin is not the asshat he projects onto his lovely wife in this weekly assault, sadly he is a little wrapped up in his own dick & fart joke world (which completely works in his other "boy's bathroom" show formats/media). Hard to tell if this is just Kevin trying to tame nervous energy by filling space (aka Jen talking) with his interruptions, or if he just needs to lay off the smoke for an hour before taping so he doesn't blather on, or a little of both.
I want good things for these two, and good things to come of SIR, but this just ain't cutting it.”
