Do we honestly think it was "Technical Difficulties" as cited by the Earwolf twitter account?

Was it Hayes' unavailability working on the East Coast?

Did Engineer Codybody gently caress up again?

Or was this, somehow, for some reason, the work of that dastardly Sprite Fox?

I'm catching up on The Grinder. In an episode Sean Clements wrote there is a character who doesn't own a television and isn't that interesting?

Listened to Little Esther's ep of HH. She's the best guest by miles and miles in terms of 'getting it'. A lot of female guests seem to play "no, nah" which is boring AF for half an hour.

Edit: I've been mostly listening in order so it's been her, Grace Hellwig (the ultimate warrior's daughter?) and Stephanie Allen.

he's trying to mansplain you, isn't he honey?

e: Also gotta throw a bone for Betsy Sodaros ep. She's hilarious and also that ep has a ton of classic HH bits. Write Stuff for Casablanca which in turn had a ton of engineer ribbing.

"Rick fills his glass [with bourbon] and drinks it quickly. His face is entirely expressionless."

Okay, that's impossible. We're supposed to believe he's not reacting at all? He's gotta be making a pee-yew face. That's stuffs strong!!!

I wasn't sold on Sodaro because I found her voice grating and her filthy gypsy character unfunny, but then her instinctive A to the Q "what's the funniest reference" was "uh... 9/11"

In a discussion of "Would you take money to sponsor an evil company like Monsanto" on this week's Best Show, Hayes says they read the Cards Against Humanity ads for "Like, $30. That was worse than Monsanto."

That's a good point. As a company guy it's important to me to know that listeners are paying attention when the hosts I paid to read copy call my product lovely and stupid for five minutes straight.

Norm McDonald making fun of the man grill is the funniest thing in podcast history but man grill probably shouldn't have given him a bonus for all the extra mental real estate he created for their product.

(Matt Besser enters a funeral parlor. There is a small casket at one end of the room, surrounded by bouquets, wreaths bearing "WE WILL MISS YOU BRANDON" and "OUR ANGEL" banners, and framed portraits of a small child. A young couple, clad in black, stand weeping in front of the coffin, her head buried in his chest. The man has a hand resting atop the coffin, and he is muttering "My son, my son")

I'm kind of glad Nick Kroll ended it on a high note, you could tell he didn't want to repeat characters or let them get stale, like the too much tuna guys have. Me and my wife still quote/imitate the ghost bouncers and wheels ontario, but had they overdone them I could see it getting repetitive and boring.

I really love Jon Daly though Pawnsylvania was great. I loved him on the christmas womptacular too, probably the best part. "I'm a racist"
