Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland's podcast is a near-perfect piece of quarantine listening

Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland — the co-dependent geriatric testaments to failed creative ambition played by Nick Kroll and John Mulaney, respectively — initially struck me as having too much of a high barrier to entry, speaking as a person who isn’t super familiar with Upper West Side types.
Listen on your iP’d? Today, of course, you can find Faizon and St. Geegland on a new podcast, called, well, Oh, Hello: The P’dcast. It comes with an appropriately daffy premise that sees the Upper West Side duo trying to make a show about the death of Princess Diana. That we’re seeing the act take up residence in a podcast isn’t particularly surprising these days, given the limited creative production environment with most people being largely stuck indoors.
On one level, you have the aforementioned Faizon and St. Geegland character work, tuna and all. On another, you have the overarching “Princess Diana investigation” premise, which provides a rough sense of context so it never feels too free-floating. Finally, you have the conceit of the actual episode-by-episode format, in which each entry serves as homage to a different podcast .
