That's the most frustrating thing about most of the top level Podcasts. They get a great, amazing, legendary guest. I am super over the moon to finally hear an hour long talk about this person's real life. But instead the entire time the guest is interrupted by the hosts of the podcast. Especially annoying when the hosts of the podcast literally cut a story short the guest was telling because one of the hosts decided to make it all about their life-- then they just completely forget to circle back around to the original story the guest was giving and never finish it. So yes-- LOVE that this podcast by Howie Mandel actually allows the guest to give their full story from start to finish!

I swear in an older interview he said it was "The Revenge". The one where George walks into his boss' office and rants, insults him, and quits. Then on Monday he shows up again like nothing happened. He said he went to Larry and argued "Larry, this is ridiculous. No one would ever behave that way, or have the nerve to show up again on Monday." And it turned out Larry did that exact thing at SNL.

Jason went to Larry and said "First off this would never happen, but even if it did, no human being would react this way!" Larry looks right at him and says "What are you talkin about? That happened to me and its exactly how I reacted!" Jason: "Oh....." That Jason interview is on one of the DVD sets.

This comment is directed at Jason Alexander, specifically. You've stated on multiple occasions that you realized George Costanza was essentially Larry David and that you should go back and determine in which episode that occurred. You've also stated that it was in the first 7-9 episodes. In that assumption, you were correct. Episode 9, titled "The Phone Message", has your character sneaking into a girlfriend's apartment to delete a message. This sounds exactly like Larry David, whom you confronted when you could not understand George's motives. I hope this solves your conundrum.

It was "The Phone Message", the fourth episode of the second season (the first season only had 5 episodes). Larry Charles had written a controversial script with a lot of handgun humor, but after the table read, the cast was deeply uncomfortable, with the script finally being pulled by director Tom Cherones because there wasn't enough humor to balance the darker subject matter. Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David subsequently (and rapidly) wrote a new episode involving George trying to switch out the cassette tape on a woman's answering machine. Jason Alexander considered this abnormal behavior to be too outrageous and told Larry David, who admitted that he once did this. Larry David had written a sketch on "Saturday Night Live" that never made it to broadcast, so he quickly recycled this central plot point and built the rest of the script from there.
