The story goes that one night in 1969, Groucho guested on Dick Cavett, and he was hot that they just kept the cameras rolling for another hour.
It's so incredible to watch Groucho's mind working in real time.

And then Arnold Schwarzenegger says something legitimately hilarious.

Sometimes, I'll be watching an ostensible documentary, and I suddenly start thinking:
I'd watch a "making-of" documentary about this documentary that's twice as long as the actual documentary.
Which often feels like the sign of an interesting documentary.

Late to the Lucia Keskin party but I just want to point out the Paul Williams T-Shirt James is wearing in this episode. Still waiting for the album but what a lineup! I love how wholesome the Taskmaster community is.

Based on this one YouTube video, I feel like Lucia Keskin may be the most unique comedy voice I've heard since maybe Tim Robinson.
