Griffin's vernacular is a huge part of the appeal of The Adventure Zone to me. I'm super into fantasy things where everyone speaks like a bombastic teen.

From the pictures I'm guessing the secret podcast the brothers were talking about was Big Gulp. Heres hoping they release it for free.

"Hey brothers I don't like it when my husband plays board games because he doesn't spend time with me but when he stops playing games I realize I don't have any hobbies. Well I like listening to podcasts but I don't really like going outside or other people"

Seriously you know why MBMBAM is great? They somehow are able to listen to that and not go 'get the gently caress away from the mic and shut up'.

That said I would listen to a podcast of someone talking boardgames and someone making wet fart sounds behind them.

Audience questions are the worst.
"Hey don't be a bummer"
"My ex is stalking me?"
How you manage to not tell that guy to gently caress off is beyond me.

A bummer is "I am a lonely 30 year old virgin working as a service clerk with upward mobility or education/motivation also my cat up and died. How do I not be a shameful gelatin mold of a man and get them presidents?"

Stalking is upsetting but not doldrums, woe is me.

By bummer I'm pretty sure they mean question that can't be answered in a joking manner. They pretty much had to respond to that with "get legal help" which is both obvious and not funny.

Ham is good, but if you put ham in a calzone you're a loving animal, you need the full, robust, flavor of spicy pepperoni in there, not weak rear end ham.

GET YOUR WEAK rear end HAM OUT.

I did not realize that this was only a Swedish thing until I googled it but I always assumed that a calzone was specifically only ham and that other variants had different names.

I always thought a calzone generally was ham and cheese with sauce on the side whereas a stromboli was a giant pizza hotpocket

In the US calzone is just a general term for "like a pizza but folded in half" and can have all kinds of crazy fillings, at least with how most pizza places I've been to make it. Most of the stromboli I've had was cheese, pepperoni or spicy sausage, and sauce poured on top without any real variation in fillings. I've also seen lots of places roll their stromboli up into a log, whereas calzones are pretty much always that folded over pizza shape.

There used to be a place near me that did a mean BBQ chicken calzone, but they changed management, tried to revamp themselves as traditional Italian-style restaurant, and were closed four months later.

This is amazingly hilarious if you've been paying attention to the show. I recommend everyone in this thread having trouble comprehending this watch every single episode of Two and a Half Men. You'll find that moment ground-breaking if you do, trust me on this.

I'm listening to back episodes of this show because it's goddamn great. I'm on episode 180: Candlenights IV. I haven't heard a bad episode yet.

I notice that "Steve" is their random guy name like every time. (This is just an observation, not a complaint)



The personal messages are still pretty lame. Hopefully they make a lot of money off of them because they're inscrutable.

It seems to depend on which person starts the fiction. Travis always goes for Steve. Justin likes Mike and Darlene while accusing Debra.
