Episode 2: Our Top 5 Funniest Will Ferrell Movies

Really our first episode, the first one with real content anyway.  In this episode we talk about our favorite/funniest movies by Will Ferrell.  I’m joined by our co-host RJ Carnesi and special Guest Host Linda Ashbrook to talk about movies that make us laugh. 

We’re all pretty big Will Ferrell fans, we love the way so many of his characters have an utter lack of self-awareness, his ability to make fun of himself and his characters, and some of the on-screen partnerships he has developed over his many movies. It doesn’t hurt that he comes from Orange County, California like the rest of us and went to USC (like me!)

This was the first podcast in this series that we ever recorded so there’s quite a bit of discussion about how the rules should work, what is expected of the hosts, how a future (this one actually) website might look, how emailing hosts works, etc. But we got through it and had a lot of fun doing so. 

You’ll probably find a lot of the obvious selections on this list, at least obvious to us. You’ll have to listen to hear all of them, though. Hopefully we don’t miss any that you liked but, of course, you should feel free to email us or comment below with your thoughts on this matter!

We’re excited to have this episode go live since its our first chance to prove the concept of our show. It has taken a long time to get here and we hope you appreciate listening to us. If you like what you hear, please leave us a good rating which will help other listeners find us. Of course, you should check us out on Twitter and Instagram too. 

We hope you enjoy this episode! Feel free to contact us at podhostlarry@whatsyourtopfive.com or RJ@whatsyourtopfive.com

Launch Date is Coming!

We are getting perilously close to an actual podcast launch date!  We’ve got a few episodes loaded up on our media hosting site and are just awaiting approval from Apple Podcasts, Spotify and others to be including in their libraries. Once that is done we’ll be official! I’m hoping we’ll be live and on the air around the first of March, but we’ll see <fingers crossed emoji inserted here> .

It has been a long time coming. We actually started this work around Thanksgiving of last year. Life, jobs, holidays, Super Bowls, etc., have all conspired against us to keep our foray into Podcasting on the sidelines but the wait is nearly over. 

Our goal will be to put out a new episode every Monday and we’ll probably do 15 or so for the first season and then take a bit of a break. This stuff is time consuming! And if there are any new announcements to be made before the actual launch, just keep an eye out for them right here on the Pod’s website. 

In the meantime if you have any ideas for a Top 5 list you’d like us to  take on or any feedback/comments on the podcast or the website please feel free to send them to podhostlarry@whatsyourtop5.com or rj@whatsyourtop5.com
