...My lovely wife Natalie told me I was probably having a panic attack, so I decided to walk around LA for four hours in a daze. I give Sizzler 4 out of 5 stars.
nick wiger is one of the most relatable people in podcasting, imo. well, him and sean clements when he starts to let the comedy facade slip and reveal how crazy he is.

one of the reality show show episodes also feature sean very sincerely talking about how sad he got finding some kittens left alone behind a target somewhere in la.

mitch's desire to bully wiger caused by his own intense self loathing and insecurity is in top form this episode.

on this episode of doughboys, mitch failed to recall the word "granular"

it is the second time in the history of the podcast he has failed to recall the word "granular" and spent a lot of time trying to figure it out

I hope the entire episode is PFT dressing Mitch down for not wearing shoes and I don't care if it's his house.
i hadn't even considered this. if only it were a video episode, cause just seeing pft in mitch's apartment is an absurd idea in my head

i was very glad mookie went over his first appearance and why it was so bad, because i knew he was on and didn't remember when. i have never relistened to any of the doughlympics episodes and they were legitimately bad.

Wiger’s song parodies have been incredible. He sounds so uncomfortable during the bit, and the way he immediately tries to keep the show moving after ending the music makes me laugh every time.
nick wiger is a musical genius https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2df6x2YEeu8

today was a great episode for mitch's unending defensiveness and spiral into madness and self hatred

cams
Mar 28, 2003


mitch is one of the best fictional characters in the american canon. sometimes it is hard to believe how little he looks inward, but he truly reflects our society.

i liked when he made fun of wiger for being autistic and the guest reminded him there was nothing wrong with that.

also thus episode really hit its stride when they talked about dunking heads in toilets and piss and pus.

double spoilerzz

holy poo poo the meeting nick spilled coffee at over a year ago was the boys meeting with netflix to sell a doughboys travel show... and netflix said they wanted it. apparently the person who bought it left netflix and the new person who came in did not want to continue any of their projects in development.

there was an episode where they mentioned having just come back from a meeting about a deal that fell through, that was in reference to this.

cams
Mar 28, 2003


nick said he thought the pilot they made was actually really good, and he seems to hate almost everything comedic that he's ever been involved in. so maybe it would've been great.

susser brought up that the famed "fight" episode happened right after they got the first signs that the deal was gonna fall through. sad story :(

what are your guys' favorite episodes for mitch's rationalizing his awful work ethic and consistently terrible decision making?

i like the tournament of chompions chicken fight mcdonalds vs panda express where mitch tries to argue that it was actually fran gillespie's fault that he only gave her 2 hours notice to eat for the podcast. he also tries to blame nick for it.

also the second in n out episode where mitch didn't book a guest for the final week of his "sinister six" gimmick and he goes off on a long rant about how hard it was for him to book guests for 6 weeks. he also blames wiger for this.

I’m cautiously optimistic, but a shrimp-eating competition sounds like a miserable podcast experience for everyone involved.
i am hoping they keep it super simple and podcast friendly, like they put on hour on the clock and then whoever eats the most shrimp over that time wins. just carry on with regular podcast antics while mitch and hayes pound back shrimp, the other two having admitted to not being good at eating.

Know Such Peace posted:

I would’ve preferred for them to record afterwards and listen back to little snippets of the live stuff while recounting the events, just like the format of the live episodes of Analyze Phish.

How many times do they have to be told that on-mic chewing noises gross out a significant portion of listeners? It’d be one thing if they were trolling the audience, but it seems like they legitimately don’t understand what makes the show fun to listen to. My favorite moment was Sean flat-out saying that he was just going to eat normally and thought the competition aspect was a bad idea.
they constantly talking about being aware that it really bothers some people

based on this we can assume that they do not give a gently caress about those people

I think Wiger was on to something about how Mitch went to see TLJ with noted Star Wars haters/skeptics.

mitch is every guy who goes to film school and spends the rest of his life thinking that he's tapped into critical film objectivity when he likes the things he likes from when he was young and happy that appealed to him.

mitch is one of the most fascinating fictional characters

JethroMcB posted:

I don't subscribe to the Double, does Mitch's criticism of TLJ revolve around a lack of "magic" again?
he complains about the science of the film, in the franchise where characters walked around on an asteroid in space wearing breathing masks

but yeah most of his complaints are that it's not the star wars from when he was a kid. tlj is pmuch a personal attack on 30-45 year old dudes who have too much invested in their "ownership" of star wars. i love mitch but he should look inward to figure out why he so mad that people like the star wars
