Yea, Griffin was just in that sweet spot between 'buzzed enough to get silly' and 'hammered enough to get aggro' where you got hilarious spite moves like

I think on Kind Rewind he said they're still in Cincy, they're just moving from a rental place to a house they bought.

I love eps where Griffin slowly loses all sanity and just goes "gently caress it, and gently caress all y'all."

e: Has Travis disclosed where he's going, or does he prefer privacy?

I'm pretty sure I saw him tweet that they bought a house a little while back.

This could be quite funny. At first the comedy would come from the boys' discomfort at their dad even vaguely motioning toward the idea of being sexual in some way. Then it would come from the villain's frustration at the heroes continual no-selling of her seduction shtick. One of my favorite recurring themes in TAZ is people who are genuinely scary or threatening becoming frustrated because the THB simply never bothered to be scared at anything. THBDGAF.

I don't remember who it was, but I distinctly remember a TAZ villain becoming so exasperated at the boys interrupting their scary one-liner with a goof that they completely dropped their facade and let out a desperate "What the gently caress is wrong with you?!" I think it was Kravitz.

It was Jenkins, the wizard Griffin swore was super powerful but couldn't get any respect from THB. He ended up never casting any spells.

This shit's about to go off.
The McElroys are allowed to live wherever they want because they are founding members of Polygon and have continued to consistently produce the site's best content since its inception. I get that they would want to be able to actively supervise a totally unknown random new hire, plus chemistry is likely going to be better if they meet and work in person with the people they make videos with.
