Colin praises Norm Macdonald's singular conversational style and recounts the recurring bit where guests on Norm and Adam Eget's podcast were led to believe Adam was a Holocaust denier.
- Norm's comedy made the listener complicit—he'd subtly suggest someone quit their job and then act innocent when they actually did it.
- Tim attended Norm's memorial service where Adam Eget spoke and killed.
- The guests at Norm's podcast didn't always know Adam Eget had this reputation, so they'd get angry thinking he was an actual Holocaust denier.
- Norm would casually reference the Holocaust accusation while interviewing someone and just move past it, leaving the guest visibly confused.
- Adam Eget took the hits without trying to defend himself, which made the bit even funnier.
- Adam Eget is now running a comedy club designed by a comic that has a distinct feel when you walk in.
