...and then it gets surreal and meta when you hear Griffin and Rachel on Rose Buddies have the same conversation about their familiarly with the people on The Bachelor shows

I definitely can't think of any other podcast where I've seen a video of one of the hosts as a baby climbing into a picnic basket. That's an uncomfortable level of familiarity.

Totally agree with all the above, good to hear I'm not alone. On the topic of Griffin, has anybody in this thread checked out the story he wrote for the Star Wars anthology? I heard him mention it on a podcast or two and honestly wasn't even sure if it was a goof or not, but a quick Google shows that it's real and it's out there. http://www.starwars.com/news/star-wars-from-a-certain-point-of-view-anthology-book-celebrates-40-years-of-a-galaxy-far-far-away Any first hand reviews? Would a non Star Wars extended universe fan get anything out of it? Also, who the hell knew Griffin was that much of a Star Wars fan, or even that he was interested in writing short stories? I mean, speaking of knowing everything about the man, I had no idea that was a space he was even interested in.

gently caress man I can't possibly imagine being Griffin. One day your brother calls up and says they're all locked in for a 6 episode tv show. His agent leaves a voicemail confirming the date he's going to be on @midnight. Forbes sends him an email asking for a bio for his 30 under 30 media luminary spot. He opens a letter from lucasfilms saying his story will be included in the 40 year anniversary star wars extended universe book. Dreamworks calls to schedule recording studio time for Trolls 2. What a loving whirlwind, yo.

Remember when Scott Bakula made a video congratulating him and Rachel on their pregnancy, and offering to Quantum Leap into her body and deliver the baby for her? That must have been a trip.

Inzombiac posted:When Griffin laughs so hard that it's barely audible but he claps a bunch is my favorite because I'm the same way. Unrelated note, what's the origin of the boys (mostly Justin) saying "Aw, dunk!" usually in the context of "oh poo poo" or something similar? I've heard them say it with increasing frequency, so I'm wondering if they got it from somewhere, or if it's just a McElroyism.

Car Boys and Touch the Skyrim and now Let's Go To Hell have taught me more about how video games work than I ever THOUGHT I would care to know, but now I'm kind of fascinated by it. I like those shows both for the comedy and for the peek behind the curtain.

What's a good episode to introduce someone to MBMBaM with? I started by listening to highlights online that my brother sent me, so I wasn't introduced to a particular episode.

If you've already listened to highlights and like those goofs, then just start with the latest episode and work your way backwards. You'll pick up any inside jokes or recurring bits quickly enough. They're usually pretty self-explanatory.

i stumbled onto mbmbam 259, the one where they didn't take a single question/yahoo and just shot the poo poo about their childhood and its probably the best episode i've heard. griffin just getting more and more annoyed about not taking questions as travis and justin just bull dozer over his complaints had me laughing a lot.

The "Bro's Better, Bro's Best" highlight episodes do have specific episode numbers (unless you were given the Samplers they had on bit.ly), but I'd say several of their best bits are from 2014, so you can start there and work your way forward, then fill in the back ones when you have the time.

McElroys on @midnight tonight which is still a crazy and awesome thing to say. I hope the fact that it's already been canceled takes some of the pressure off and they can stay loose and goofy.

Do they stream @midnight on their site at all? I don't have cable at the moment, but could use someone's login to watch it on the website, and would like to watch it as it airs, if possible.

Yeah, the early ones are great. I think it's the 3rd or 4th one that has the surgery-based real dating sim and I was dying laughing at picturing the Kinect functionality. I'm all caught up with TAZ but never got through the Flop House episodes. I listened to about half an hour of the first one and Elliott literally makes the exact same Eiffel 65 joke about 6 times in 20 minutes. It wouldn't be as bad but he insists on saying the full "I'm blue da ba dee da ba die da ba dee da ba die" quote every single time. Does he get better later in the episode or is he consistent with it after the first half hour? I get that being annoying is his shtick, but he made the part I heard unlistenable.

The first few are the best by far. I wish they stuck with the guest analyst bit, it was my favorite part listening to them stumble over their own ideas while somebody was befuddled and awe struck by the batshit crazy thing they came up with.
