lol, good job on the latest 4 compilations though i must say, the car yard stuff is getting a little old i'd suggest churches, alcoholics anonymous, Scientology outlets, homeless shelters etc etc the kinds of places where they expect the callers to be a little loony and/or in need of help

...the car yard stuff is getting a little old... the auto dealer calls from this weeks compilations were all consecutive calls we did in the space of 45 minutes or so - I was cracking up when I heard them, so rather than just pick one of them and get the rest of the stuff to make up the compilations from other days/topics, I just got three or four of them as far as posting the weekly compilations, we do mix in new stuff here and there, but we're still going through the first 18 months or so, and during that period we called lot of the same types of places - but if they're funny, we'd rather post them than not if the only reason not to is that there are already calls to similar places ...i'd suggest...the kinds of places where they expect the callers to be a little loony and/or in need of help good thought - we've called therapists many times using that same rationale, but you'd be surprised how impatient and quick to hang up they are - the more desperate/weird you sound - but those other types of places like homeless shelters you mentioned - genius!!

with the "this stuff is getting old" stuff...you've raised expectations up so high with what you've done so far you're gonna get the occasional critique. there's definately been a few calls (like the adoption one) that people don't see as good as the others...just gotta realize it's because all the others have been SO good that we expect nothing below par.

I don't find that any of it is getting old. I still laugh at old arnold calls though, so maybe it's just me

I'm the same way - I've heard all of these dozens of times and I still crack up

1. I love the way you pissed off the bird lady with such upfront, in your face attitude. There wasn't even anything that out of the ordinary, just a strong 'tude and she was so offended. I don't like her.
2. This auto-sales-call did not seem repetitive to me, and in fact, seemed like the definitive auto-sales-call. The conversation aspect was seamless with quick, on target responses eventually convincing the quasi-doubtful bloke (quite the jovial fellow, I took a liking to him), and that Jack started the call off by saying that he had the same name as the auto-place was a lovely, humorous touch.
PS.
"there's definately been a few calls (like the adoption one) that people don't see as good as the others..."
I found the adoption one, while not particularly laugh out loud funny, very therapeutic for some reason. Listening to a woman converse with a prerecorded Jack for several minutes while dishing out so much helpful information was soothing to my ears and soul. There were also some shocks and surprises. Jack would say slightly disturbing things, refer to children in weird ways, like they were objects, "I wanna black one," (paraphrasing, i listened to it a while ago, i think before these comment pages were perfected), and yet, despite his awkward phrasing, the woman remained congenial. She seemed nice and enthusiastic about helping people adopt children, and so, I thought the call was successful in that Jack didn't go overboard and fart, and bark, and shout, and curse, and batman, and the company of a woman.

nice assessment of the adoption call - one thing I loved was the "It's unnatural to discuss" in response to her talking about getting tax writeoffs for adopting kids - she says "Yeah, I know." in a somewhat sad voice
