Episode Summary: After the brain-searing, philosophically exhausting episode 0005(The Matrix Vs. Inception), the guys needed a week or two to catch their breath. For a change of pace, they give comedy a whirl. What better than quite possibly the best two buddy comedies of all time? Buddy comedy is its own subgenre of comedy. It appears throughout comedy in every decade. Dumb And Dumber and Tommy Boy are side-splitting films that take the audience on road trips through less than ideal situations. One of the major themes of episode 0006 is the idea that comedy in and of itself should be judged similarly to dramatic films(Jeff Daniels even said so). This rests in the fact that so many comedic actors can do drama but the reverse isn\\u2019t nearly as prevalent. Jim Carrey is an incredible example of this range. Knowing this is true, you can\\u2019t help but think about what several of entertainment\\u2019s biggest hitters had to say about the late and great Chris Farley. The common sentiment is that we hadn\\u2019t even seen the tip of the iceberg of his talent. Like many great comics, his potential to do drama was not only high, but expected. Kyle speaks to failure as a stand-up comedian to provide insights into the emotional layers of comedy. During randos, the guys discuss how Dumb And Dumber was a film that was more than likely never going to be made, how Jeff Daniels ended up playing opposite of Jim Carrey, and the original casting choices that would blow your mind.
