How To with John Wilson (HBO) • Page 7

Most New Yorkers just sit in their car for the full hour and a half and wait until the sweeper comes.

This is an opportunity for people to take care of stuff they've been meaning to do for for a while.

 

Can you honk the horn if you're accidentally buried alive?

 

Nearly spit out my drink when the guy said the monthly price to park your car in a private parking garage in NYC was almost as much as my rent.

 

“Can you honk the horn if you’re buried alive”

Great celebrity cameo this ep too

 

Tony hawk is the best

 

This was a really educational episode. I'm really glad this is highlighting just how dangerous of job being a sanitation worker is. A lot of people don't realize sanitation workers have one of the highest occupational fatality rates in the country (above even cops and firefighters) and this episode is doing a good job of explaining why.

Conner O'Malley is a former sanitation worker, i'm assuming he had a big influence in this episode.

 

This show is just the best. I like that John’s putting himself in the show a little more.

 

I feel like a Nathan or someone at HBO must have given him a note saying "make it more personal to you", and if they did kudos because it definitely elevates the show even more.

 

Yeah more of John please

 

The cat on the nazi symbol definitely distracted me in the best way

 

The dude carrying his own leg around is my hero.

 

my jaw was on the floor when he pulled it out of his backpack but I was also so impressed and kinda loved it, fuck yeah dude that is your leg forever

 

Was not expecting a run-in with NXIVM

 

I want to be friends with everyone in that Avatar fan meet up group. What an incredibly wholesome group of people. That might actually be the most sincere and emotional moment of the series so far.

That entire Avatar fandom segment was Oscar caliber documentary filmmaking.

 

Also i'm really hoping someone out there finds and posts the full episodes of the court shows John was on.

 

He needs to keep putting more of himself in this show because he’s endlessly fascinating.

 

This was definitely one of my favourite episodes.

 

Yeah, super good season so far. Probably my favorite tv show.

 

If this is not at least nominated for Emmy next year it'll be a crime.

Not even sure what category it would go under (variety-sketch maybe since that's what Nathan and Billy on the Street were nominated for) but it needs to be included.

 

that was totally Rick Rubin out the window, right? haha

 

every episode just gets better and better

lost at him on the people's court

 

Need to watch jingle berry

 

Been watching Les Blank documentaries on Criterion. I can definitely see the influence he had on John. The mundane themes, the heavy use of B-Roll, and even the handrawn with whiteout title card style.

 

oooh gotta check these out

 

Watch "Garlic is as Good as Ten Mothers"
