Meaning she hasn’t worked a day in her life.

2024-12-05 16:14:18 +0000 UTCNice episode. Not my favourite but certainly intriguing.

2023-12-22 17:58:20 +0000 UTCYikes this was cringe.

2023-12-08 04:19:39 +0000 UTCgood lord
Daniel
2023-12-05 00:23:23 +0000 UTCAt first I thought this was a parody of two self-infatuated, Hollywood-types talking to one another, so I thought it was funny and well performed. Then I realized that this is actually how these two friends talk to one another. Name-dropping. Inane stories that go nowhere. Every other sentence is a humble-brag. Is this sort of conversation typical for long-time Hollywood-types, or are these two just in a special class of their own?
Josh Groves
2023-11-08 17:47:59 +0000 UTCI love Sam's books (although hated his take on Tar) and love Colleen Camp but this was, um, not great. I was curious to know how she went from actress to producer but there was just no context given. I was also totally confused by how her PR work and producing work go hand in hand. And no Death Game stories!?
Duncan Birmingham
2023-11-07 21:32:23 +0000 UTCFucking dreadful. Just because people work in Hollywood does not mean they are interesting. FUCK NO. FUCK OFF!
JEREMY ROBERTS
2023-11-07 18:51:05 +0000 UTCWow, that was gruelling ! Insight into the journalist / historian’s craft though … find a maniac, let them ramble maniacally with the occasional interruption with a flattering comment and see what you learn
Keith campbell
2023-11-07 10:15:31 +0000 UTCpseudo intellectual, pathetic, kiss ass POS who thinks Don Siegel is low-class simply cause he makes genre films cause even though he's Gen Y, he gives into the most moronic, classical pseudo intellectualism without even questioning it...not to mention, Bret kinda does too...anyway, Wasson, seriously, fuck yourself...and Bret, seriously, come on, now 😂😂
Neil G.
2023-11-07 06:12:55 +0000 UTCI love Sam and Colleen was just as expected…I love a good rambling conversation

Ronnie
2023-11-05 16:27:59 +0000 UTCYeah, sorry, but I also bailed after 10 minutes
Ronnie
2023-11-05 16:26:45 +0000 UTCWell played.
N.M. Janice.
2023-11-04 20:05:39 +0000 UTCBailed after :10 mins. I never learned what it is exactly she does, and I’m ok not knowing
Eric Macom
2023-11-04 18:21:31 +0000 UTClove bret and adam and sam but this was awful
Collin Myers
2023-11-04 14:08:41 +0000 UTCnot going to listen on my run, will not say more later, after my run
Collin Myers
2023-11-04 14:08:15 +0000 UTCNailed it.
KCDC
2023-11-03 14:01:18 +0000 UTCHey Adam, could you even see the studio floor with all the name Colleen dropped?
KCDC
2023-11-03 14:01:06 +0000 UTCAdam should cut together a ‘What Do You Think of The Eagles?’ compilation and keep it on ice for a future Brett-less emergency.
Dan Palmer
2023-11-03 12:30:24 +0000 UTCI say this with love, but that was brutal. Next time Bret is gone, have Adam host the show.
Peter Guzzo
2023-11-03 11:52:59 +0000 UTCLove Sam and Colleen, inspiring episode!

2023-11-03 05:03:07 +0000 UTCVerbal felation meets verbal diarrhea. Atrocious.
R. M.
2023-11-03 03:57:48 +0000 UTCThis was trash. Who are these airheads? The sycophantic dude was almost as insufferable as the Inside Hollywood old broad. So fucking amateur with zero introduction or context given. Waste of money.
Dancing
2023-11-03 01:25:16 +0000 UTCLMAO this is fucking unlistenable. I'm not even mad or annoyed, it's hilarious how bad it is. They sound absolutely drunk and not in a good way. I made it 7 minutes.
Tom Syverson
2023-11-02 22:01:56 +0000 UTCThat was some campy fun, well done!
GC
2023-11-02 21:08:04 +0000 UTCColleen it's not just a skill it's a TALENT
Dodge Zelko
2023-11-02 19:14:42 +0000 UTCI proclaim that LA is the most important place on Earth. The magnetism that draws the most talented people from all over America, even foreign lands, to come to Los Angeles and express their creativity and in return make millions of dollars acting , writing, hosting and just being famous. Drop $300K on a party, no problem! A $ 14892 lunch at The Ivy, the production company covers it, an all nighter at Dan Tana`s is covered by the studio. Famous people everywhere. Wealth beyond imaginations. $ 50M villa on Doheny, private planes and private yachts. Just by living in LA you will become wealthy from your creativity.

2023-11-02 18:10:24 +0000 UTCSo good! Would love to hear Bret converse with Colleen.

2023-11-02 17:30:39 +0000 UTCHa ! Was thinking the same thing
Lionel
2023-11-02 17:18:15 +0000 UTCHeartily awaiting Bret’s review of the Five Night’s At Freddy’s movie.
Artemis Fedorchuk
2023-11-02 14:45:14 +0000 UTCSam, “Slow down, you move too fast, got to make the podcast last” (with thanks to Paul Simon) A somewhat interesting, but overall exhausting hour.
Jim Weaver
2023-11-02 14:43:44 +0000 UTCI'm glad we got to hear from here. Grest character actress over the years. Would of liked more acting stuff then her party stuff. But interesting that she is a great promoter. Never knew that part of her life.
Robin Hunter
2023-11-02 13:55:29 +0000 UTCAnd there I was thinking it was Taylor Swift.

Romeo Delta Charlie
2023-11-02 12:19:39 +0000 UTCOmg it was so bad I was driven to find a comments section that I didn’t know existed.

Paul McConalogue
2023-11-02 03:45:11 +0000 UTCUnfortunately, in 50 years, we will probably all be living like the humans in WALL-E.

2023-11-02 03:27:43 +0000 UTCBret on a book tour - and the podcast turns into Robert Altman’s The Player - Cheers from Houston - fabulous & good people

2023-11-02 01:44:38 +0000 UTCBest show in years
Richard Raymond
2023-11-02 01:08:51 +0000 UTCabout 12 years ago I saw her names in the credits of a signed, sealed, and delivered movie and had to go through the whole thing again to see who she was.....
Poetical Gore
2023-11-02 00:43:56 +0000 UTCDid you hear the one about Sharon Stone and the bishops?
Paul Richardson
2023-11-02 00:41:30 +0000 UTCAn episode about parties Bret would never attend.
Dustin
2023-11-01 23:50:57 +0000 UTCHe’s not bad, I guess, but I care not for him in just under an hour.
Alex Dermer
2023-11-01 23:50:53 +0000 UTCThat's not even Colleen Camp in the thumbnail. It's her co-star Cynthia Wood, Playboy Playmate of February 1973.
Billy Schafer
2023-11-01 23:28:25 +0000 UTCIt seems that bret had some publicity lately because I cannot understand why there are so many new morons in the comments.
Oleg
2023-11-01 22:51:33 +0000 UTCCouldn't get past first five minutes. Not my jam but Bret will be back so whatever
Erick
2023-11-01 21:00:24 +0000 UTCGlamorama vibes
Jim Seem
2023-11-01 20:38:27 +0000 UTCThere really are some rude unpleasant comments here. An ignorant sense of entitlement. I guess that’s a lot of modern online discourse for you. I wonder in 50 years time will we look back and be embarrassed and ashamed by our behaviour in the cyberspace.
Andrew Hearne
2023-11-01 19:49:44 +0000 UTCOf course, it's Brett's pod, but I agree this feels wrong. I guess it's hard for Brett just to do an evergreen recording, given that he doesn't want to do film reviews anymore. And tbf a guest host is better than another Timewarp podcast, so perhaps there's no good solution for when brett is busy.
Harold B
2023-11-01 18:34:53 +0000 UTCYeah, but still. Wow. :/
Harold B
2023-11-01 18:27:25 +0000 UTCSweden and Portugal as far as I know.

2023-11-01 18:15:45 +0000 UTCI made it about 15 minutes before switching over to Last Podcast on the Left.
Alec K. Redfearn
2023-11-01 18:07:26 +0000 UTCI'd tune in for that.
Alec K. Redfearn
2023-11-01 18:05:23 +0000 UTCI second this.
Alec K. Redfearn
2023-11-01 18:02:33 +0000 UTCGet Alex Kazemi to be a guest host next time just so the comments will be fun.
Tommy Stronach

Jonathan Davis
2023-11-01 17:11:31 +0000 UTCWhere in Europe is Bret, I couldn't find anything. Is it just a media thing or is he doing public readings as well?
Flounge
2023-11-01 17:01:48 +0000 UTCI don’t pay measly sheckles every month to listen to some rat fuk talk to an actress I’ve never heard of. I divest my previous keesh to let Bret’s godvoice sonorously rape my ear canals.

Justin
2023-11-01 16:57:23 +0000 UTCmade it 4:08 before i stopped 🤣😵
Nick Not Nolte
2023-11-01 16:37:11 +0000 UTCOhhh would rather wait two weeks than another guest host. Sheesh. take the week off next time 🤣
Nick Not Nolte
2023-11-01 16:31:48 +0000 UTCBret please consider pre-recording episodes before you go away rather than a guest host. As it is some of us are not really interested in the majority of the guests and the idea of paying for guest on guest BS is not desirable. Maybe pre-tape some Q&A’s. And if you must, the only acceptable guest hosts: Adam, Todd.

2023-11-01 16:23:25 +0000 UTCi love her she is a national treasure

2023-11-01 16:03:23 +0000 UTCI think it has something to do with 38 years passing by?
Andrew Lee
2023-11-01 13:57:48 +0000 UTCI made it 8 minutes only because I was on the train
Poetical Gore
2023-11-01 03:31:36 +0000 UTCNext time Todd should host. He is funny. I tapped out in under 10 minutes of this EP.
Poetical Gore
2023-11-01 03:31:03 +0000 UTCTotal bullshit Todd didn’t guest host.
Patrick
2023-10-31 23:57:47 +0000 UTCI loved The Big Goodbye and will likely buy Sam’s forthcoming Coppola book. I couldn’t get through five minutes of this though. He sounds like he’s either on entirely the wrong medication or far too high a dose.

Constantine
2023-10-31 16:36:19 +0000 UTCI like Sam. And his old man voice even though he’s only 42? lol and I recognize Colleen’s voice from seeing Palo Alto, which she has a small part but she’s very funny in it.
Ashley
2023-10-31 15:52:10 +0000 UTCSomebody please come get their drunk grandma
John Pineda
2023-10-31 15:11:19 +0000 UTCDude, how did she Colleen Camp go from Clue babe to looking like Bruce Villanch from the Simpsons??? the horror
Poetical Gore
2023-10-31 13:55:51 +0000 UTCBrett wanders an LA party and stumbles upon an amusing Hollywood tableu, replete with more name dropping than a soggy phone book and a lady who speaks like Trump. That's (surreal) entertainment!
Thomas Edwards
2023-10-31 11:32:14 +0000 UTCReally? Hahahhaha! The BBE ... but Sam Wasson podcast... I don't get it. I pay for Bret not for Sam Wasson who I liked.. read the Chinatown book... but hey ! Why???? It's a scam. Not the BBE podcast this week... th
