The John Malkovich story is an all timer

Ohhhh man this was dope. Inspiring Pod! Matt really seems like a well rounded, humble, good hearted dude. It's cool to hear him talk about the early year struggles with Aflek. A lot of times we just see these celeb success stories and assume it's luck but this guy really put his 10,000 hours in. This guy is passionate about his craft, and has really diversified his skill set. The big takeaway is if the opportunity/role doesn't exhist, CREATE IT! (a la Goodwill Hunting) Glad it wasn't all about the Sox and Pats. Lots of Rounders 😂😂 . I've actually never seen Rounders or even heard of it, debating a viewing. I was hoping to hear some Ocean's 11 stories. That group seems tight. Great Pod Bill. Keep'em coming!

Matt should come on the rewactchables!

Very good interview. First time listening to Matt off camera. Interesting fella to talk to. Great job guys!

Matt is one of the more cerebral people you’ll ever listen to. He went to Harvard so we know he knows his shit

Best B.S. pod probably ever.

This has been one of my faves. Damon sounds like someone who is very secure in his being. Enjoyed the flat-share stories. The only other one from the annals of the BS Report which sticks in my mind is 'Pedof-Isle" -- the Adam Corrola fake movie pitch. Yes, the sports bits is just very dry. I don't know anybody who enjoys the Cousin Sal NFL lines podcasts -- apart from the participants. Always feels like youre eves- dropping on someone else's boring convo.

Today is Canadian Thanksgiving. LMFAO I just coincidentally listened to this podcast episode on the morning of October 8 2018 which is also Matt Damon's Birthday. Happy Birthday Mr. Damon !!!

always ome back to this pod at least 1-2 times per year

I must admit....the conversation you had with Gretchen at the beginning when you were trying to get a quickie from her after a night of playing, I'm paraphrasing but i think it goes something like "I promise you won't feel a thing" .....I've used it so many times and my girl melts and gives in more times then not... so thank you for making an impression on me as a young man

Best pod ever

32:40 Rainmaker is veeeeery good

I thought Affleck's "comeback" began with Hollywoodland. Shoulda been nominated.

*BILL, I WENT TO PLAYSTORE & AMAZON to purchase The Book of Basketball. BUT it's like the only book not available in an AUDIO BOOK format. WHY? Is there future plans for Audiobook format???*

good will hunting is phenomenal

"Ben showed up with all of his shit"

i wondered why i didnt know the rounders movie. then found out it wasnt in cinemas in germany and austria.

I never thought of it that way...imagine being a kid...your dad takes you to the movie theater...and you find out, he's...

People who love movies can't allow this to happen: 1:13:30. We need to find ways to fix that.

Great fucking interview

Bill has to bring Wahlberg on a pod if he hasn’t already for a movie

GIVE US ROUNDERS 2 AND I WILL BUY YOUR BLUE RAY 100 TIMES !

HEY MORK! YOU THINK YOU’RE BETTER THAN ME?!

Matt. Damon.

Wow, so many gossips! The juicest part is this titbit where Matt pretended him not remembering: 8:28.

Gemini = Ticketmaster/MOB/HBO

Truely explained why these amazing stories are not being made anymore, its all about mass consumption, less talk more action blah blah blah

No Departed stories, no Saving Private Ryan stories, no stories about working w/ the fine piece of ass Penelope Cruz, no stories of working with that fine piece of ass Eva Mendez.... Come to think of it no talk of working with Scarlett Johansson. No mention of the Chinese movie he did that was a gigantic disaster: The Great Wall. I'm sure he had some choice stories of that one. No stories of working in Africa in two films: Invictus and Elysium. But 25 minutes of Rounders.

Well when there’s a 28th anniversary of working with ScarJo or Rewatchables episode dedicated to Invictus I’ll join your applause in those Messageboard Forums

Ugh Bill... you have MATT DAMON on your podcast. Just shut up and let him finish a sentance

I'm staying loyal to Kimmel, not gonna listen to this, sorry Bill.

Seems like bill simmons went full hollywood. No basketball anymore, whenever there is basketball, its a short segment with some lame comedian or actress afterwards.
