If you've seen it enough times, you don't need to hear the audio of the show to know what's going on.

An important question, does the commentary go into a hushed silence so we can hear The Monarch scream,"GIVE ME THE..... cuttlefish....  "?

If there's ever a lull in conversation they freak out and start doing character stuff. Silence in a commentary is anathema to them.

They do most of the commentaries with the audio of the show off while they record. So they kinda barely pay attention.

I would have been mumbling things like "I have cuttlefish." But more to the point... DACK FAYDEN posted:I ate some cuttlefish on a Tinder date earlier this week and it was very difficult to refrain from quoting that. Dack seeks a good time, but he's not a hedonist. He seeks love! He just doesn't know look. He looks under the profiles on Tinder and in the hot stem of a crack pipe when he should look to nature. Gentle aquatic mammals have all the answers!

For some reason the death of Dr. Dugong was the most upsetting death scene on the show to me. I think it's because he's just so harmless and so frightened when the Monarch murders him. Also, I recently learned that he was Wide Whale's brother: http://venturebrothers.wikia.com/wiki/Douglas_Ong I wonder if that's the reason Wide Whale has such a huge grudge against the Monarch.

Wide Wale is a mobster-type, and they're stereotypically depicted as prone to vendettas when members of their immediate family are attacked/killed.

It also plays into the whole brother motif the show has.

Yeah I imagine that when Wale reveals this fact to The Monarch is going to be a hell of a scene(and probably give us a good look at just how physically potent of a villain he is)

That's how things work on this show.

It's Wide Wale, a type of corduroy which is what Wide Wale wears.

which of the guys is it that has an encyclopedic knowledge of various kinds of fabrics? Osiris Cultist: Ooohhh. Fill the Jackal’s head with OIL. Now it makes sense. At first I thought you said scalding hot voile. Osiris High Priest: Wh-What the hell is voile? Osiris Cultist: It’s a soft, sheer fabric. I warmed some up in the dryer.

In a show full of great puns and names, Wide Wale is maybe the best.

Wide Wale is great because of how obscure it is, but Phantom Limb is still supreme.

That's not really a pun though. Sort of? I mean I guess it is. But it is very good.

Phantom Limb isn't really much of a pun, it's just such a perfectly supervillainous name that it boggles the mind that no one thought to use it until 2003.

The guys can go to their graves knowing they executed the most perfect of all gag supervillain concepts and made it look stupefyingly easy.

A pun needs wordplay - a homophone or something. Most of the villain names aren't puns by themselves, but pairing them with an extremely literal character design makes it into a kind of visual pun.
