    I was really upset when Adult Swim canceled 'Joe Pera Talks With You', and I feel like I've had a void in my life since it's absence. Today, I came to the ol' youtube in hopes of finding something relaxing to listen to.. much to my surprise, I was greeted with this wonderful new show. It's like a combination of his old show and 'Tales From Lake Wobegon'.. I love it so much. I feel like a piece of humanity has been restored. I'll be looking forward to each new episode. Thanks so much, Joe! I love you!!

      That was the best thing on Adult Swim.
      The first time I saw it, it was like a shock. I thought 'wtf is this' and then my brain began to change lol
      Couldn't look away, couldn't turn it off. After only a couple episodes I was hooked.

    First day back to work tomorrow after 5 weeks off after surgery. I’m crawling into bed early in a feeble attempt to try and get a good night sleep. Pulling up CZcams after taking a Benadryl with my nighttime routine to see what I can find to relax while it kicks in and what am I blessed with??? Holy shit, it’s a new Joe Pera!!!

    I was worried I didn’t have access to the next one! That I missed it or something. You tube algorithm only feeds me certain videos of yours when it wants. I used to listen to that seventies show for years to fall asleep, until I found out they were Scientologists. and then I did Rocky and bullwinkle and their fractured fairy tales. I found you on AS as the show, and then I found you on CZcams. I listen almost every night through CZcams. There’s someone who put your one on loop, which is best because I also was listening to Gregory Ian isakov album and CZcams came up with a horror movie trailer, it woke me up out of a deep sleep .I’d say 45 minutes is the sweet spot for me to fall asleep, so I end up having to put most of your videos on playlists. I love the music in most of them, sure the banter and the jokes but the little flutters of music are calming and train my brain to the sound. Classical conditioning- thanks from midland mi
