"Can't we just go back to jetpack tomfoolery?" should some how make it into the opening theme.

I hope some enterprising soul will put together a new version of the theme. This one is from all episodes before like ep. 15! They've had gold since then that could really help express the Dollop.

The Jetpack story demands to be a mini-series, there's enough story for at least 8 episodes. Definitely a Coen Bros type project.

I think it depends on if they know whatever story Dave pulls. They've done some good reaction poo poo before.

Dave needs to remember to keep talking into the mic when he ends sentences.

Edit: I listen when driving so there's wind noise and road noise I have to hear through, and what I mean is Dave has a tendency to back away from the mic and endsentencesreally quietlyandquickly.

The most recent episode (North Pole Madness) seemed particularly bad. He did this 3 or 4 times.

I don't know if they've had an armless man on a live episode, but there is John Wayne Thompson's Armageddon, which is related?

No, they did a live show(?), and the story they told was about an armless man. They brought it up because family members of people who have been the subject of stories have been reaching out to them (some good, some bad), and he contacted them and told them it was hilarious.

I have no idea his name or what episode, I missed it too.

Sometimes I'll randomly think back to Fargo season 1 and how it was pretty funny that "lying" was treated like a superpower that lets you get everything you want in life and luckily nothing like that is possible in the real world!

-and then I'll listen to the Enron episode and remember that poorly constructed lies actually work most of the time, especially if you get really aggressive with people while using them.

Christ, that North Pole story. The closest thing to a happy ending for anyone was "well, one guy had his reputation and his achievements destroyed and served 10 years in jail because of that false reputation, but at least he spent his final years in exile as an extremely rich man"

but i do love these episodes where Gareth gets almost too furious to think and finally just goes off on a rant at the end so they can't go sign cars

That guy did not have any idea how to Dollop properly until he relaxed thanks to talking about his weird quicksand kink. Apparently that's the magic trick. Talk about something that gets you goin'. Quicksand and Tonto.
