I always thought they used yuck my yums like parting the kimono, in that the point is that it sounds gross and it's funny to make your brothers feel uncomfortable in a jokey way.

New TAZ is up, the Nashville Live Show

This live show really highlights how not conducive at all this show is to a live setting with an hour and a half of game time. Griffin sounds panicked in the back half and increasingly annoyed that the rest are goofing off, and sort of breezes through parts of the story. The goofy bits are more fun and can be done much more in a relaxed environment without time constraints. They either need to nail down the live arc timing or extend the time they're allowed on stage.

I haven't listened to this week's yet, but for my money the best live TAZ is still the wrestling one. It was basically perfect in every conceivable way, and because there wasn't really a broader story framework, it didn't have to be as rushed toward the end.

Yeah, the problem is Griffin is the one responsible for ensuring an actual end to the story happens by the end of their alloted time. It seems like he's been learning, as this live show only had like three separate puzzles/encounters. Justin seems to try to help push it along when Griffin gets anxious, but Travis and Clint are literally incapable of not doing a bit as soon as it occurs to them.

Yeah Griffin commented on it, wondering why they were clapping for someone who wasn't anybody. The answer is fans. Unfortunately dumb people like good stuff too sometimes

I assume they thought it was going to be an alternate dimension Greg from the catwalk of the wrestling live show, it kind of sounded like him at first.

It was because he reused a voice he's done a few times, so they thought it was a call back. I'm fairly sure they thought it was the same dweeby kid Taaco knocked off the rafters in the wrestling live episode. Which wouldn't even make sense, but whatever.

11:13: Despite Gio Gonzalez warning, "Never mix your sparkling juices," Bryce Harper opens another bottle of sparkling grape and mixes it with sparkling cider.

1:07: Harper walks to the 7-11 and orders an all-syrup Slurpee.

1:10-3:05: Harper has no recollection of this time. Aliens?

It's almost as if cramming a complete one shot adventure into an hour and a half stage production only has use as a fan service!

The brothers seemed to have come to accept this long ago, you might want to as well if you're gonna listen to the live shows. It's not like there's any lore or substance to be had.
