As an aside, is that new max fun show Tiny Victories more or less just another Wonderful? Has anyone given it a listen?

Stroop There It Is posted:now the Sawbones theme, that I can see I hear there are better versions of that but yeah for some reason (I think it's the little spoken bit at the very beginning) that song gives me a vibe I can only describe as "my two favorite webcomics are XKCD and SMBC" maybe it's just bc the little vocal affectation reminds me of something a really nerdy PhD friend of mine does all the time more falafel please posted:Holy poo poo it's an inoffensive fun pop song that is supposed to feel like high school.

Isn’t Griffin besties with CRJ? She should drop a track for them. Or better yet, cover the existing track. That’d be funny.

i mean, obviously good that they reversed decision, but why did they think it was a good idea to announce it yesterday?? it's one thing to say "yeah we planned this months in advance and then things didn't go as we hoped", and another thing to say "we planned this months in advance and then things didn't go as we hoped.... THEN WE ANNOUNCED IT ANYWAY!" that was really loving stupid of them and I'm usually the one who goes to bat for every thing they do including yelling at the owner of the "cbd cures autism" store in the mall

You'd think they'd make more off the digital shows considering they wouldn't have all the overhead of the actual venue taking a chunk out of ticket sales. Then again, I have no idea how their agreement structure works and they wouldn't be able to sell merch so maybe that's the issue

Live shows are probably a whole bunch of fun to do, too. I'm sure that's part of why they're eager to go back, not just the money.

Montaigne is Australian. Australians often call complete strangers mate. Obviously the brothers are using this to foster dangerous parasocial sentiment in their fanbase.

I just think the lyrics are inappropriate. Have you all really paid attention to it? It's a start of something beautiful A podcast listener Has blossomed Met griffin And formed a special friendship I could have never seen what buying merch would do for me Sydnee and Justin take me to Sheetz It just seems to be encouraging a parasocial relationship

You know I thought this criticism was overblown but I gotta say, the 90-second spoken word segment explaining how you can become close friends with someone by listening to recordings of them talking was kinda problematic. I mean, did she really have to say that once you have listened to 100 hours of someone's podcast it's okay to show up at their house uninvited? I'm not sure I agree with that.
