Just listened to The Cereal Man and Two Indigenous Actors episodes. Gareth's reactions to who they were about were the best. What other episodes have him finally connect the dots at some point?
Like, it took him so long finally figure out who the Kellogg was in the Cereal episode and it was :discourse:

Harriet Tubman has a late realization in it. But I was also surprised by it, so I can't really blame Gareth.

I wish the title of that episode didn't outright name the topic because I likely would have come to the realization at the same time as Gareth and it would've been hilarious :mad:

EDIT:

If you have ever been interested in watching a live show I HIGHLY recommend this one. It's about the Erie Canal Soda Pop Festival. It's an attempt at Woodstock in 1972 that turns into the Gathering of the Juggalos. It's hilarious.

I can't imagine that saying "Hey don't sweat it, just wait a few months and you can hear it for free" would have a positive impact on their ticket sales for the online live shows, so maybe not that strange

like, at least at the live show you're going as much for the experience as anything else, so you won't feel like you wasted your money if they post it later

If it's got Wil Anderson as a guest, it's probably going to be a pretty good episode, even if the story itself isn't amazing. However, Marion Zioncheck is amazing.

I'm going through the back catalog (again), and I forgot about the celebrity cameos in the Kidnapping of Brooke Hart.

"Brooke wasn't on the ship. Do you know who was on the ship? Babe Ruth!" "What? Why?" "I don't know, he was just there."

"Naturally, [the pillowcase floating in the bay] brings us to child actor Jackie Coogan." "Okay, buddy, I'm gonna take off. I'll see you later" (I love that joke every time it happens; when Dave says something that's just too much for Gareth so he's 'done'). Dave then diverts the story to talk about Jackie Coogan and how, for some reason, people thought his pillowcase was in the bay and therefore he had something to do with the kidnapping.

Also, the bit where the kidnappers want a radio installed in the Studebaker reminded me of a bit from another episode but I can't remember the episode: "You're gonna take a nice trip on the train and get off at murdah" in stereotypical "Noo Yawk" accents, and I think they keep adding more elaborate stops and instructions ending in "get off at murder." Anyone else know what I'm talking about from that brief terrible description?

Edit: What is everyone's favorite Reverse Dollop (or Pollod, as nobody but Gareth calls them)? I like Nim the Chimp, Domino's Pizza, and The Story of Atari. Atari has the smallest amount of sad/bad stuff, so I guess if I had to pick one as an absolute favorite, it'd be that one.
