How is Travis on his and his wife's podcast? Does she reel him in somewhat?

The Besties is gonna die and I hope at least everyone involved is having a good time with it.


Their most recent episode was about a game I hadn't heard of that they repeatedly point out you don't have to actively play to succeed. They discussed this sort of game instead of the game they announced they would review at the end of the week's prior episode. Their game to discuss next week is apparently about divorce???? Mercifully, Justin did not grumble about a lack of sponsors. Shits getting weird.

To be fair Loop Hero is very popular right now. I liked the episode.

I think this casual attitude could keep it alive if they just talk about what they’ve been playing this week instead of it being work to play a specific game

They are very liberal (*especially* Travis). Any movement to the left seems a more recent thing. Just listen to an older episode to hear them make riding with biden jokes or whatever.

e: Travis would get his rear end handed to him in the tryhard Hafu/5up Among Us lobbies :v:

I don't listen to Shmanners a lot but from the episodes I've listened to because the topic interested me, Theresa reels him in a lot. Completely different vibe, which makes sense.

EDIT: Oh I did like their Great British Bake Off podcast. Just two people getting enthusiastic about something they like, but not barreling each other over.

Hey everybody, for real, posting to frustrate each other is not a fun way to post because we're all on the same team and that team is to have fun together and to make it fun for all our audiences. And so when people make posts just to frustrate each other and just to troll each other, there's enough of that in the world today, of people trolling each other just to be mean and to be hurtful, and if we're gonna post in this space together we need to do it because we want each other to have fun and not because we're trying to frustrate each other, cause there's enough frustrating things in the world right now and there's enough we can't control, and one of the things we can control is that everyone is here to have fun and not waste each others' time and so when we make decisions that are meant to troll each other, that's something that bad people do.

Shmanners, Sawbones, and Wonderful all have a "spouses reign them in" dynamic, while MBMBAM is full sibling energy and TAZ is full sibling + dad energy. Of course they act different when it's not just brothers goofing off with each other. They also get on each other's nerves a lot, as family does, especially in a neverending hellscape where every day, week, and month blends into each other for a year. They're all dealing with this poo poo in different ways, but none of them are going anywhere or "fixing" themselves just because you personally don't like it. So either calm your tits or stop listening, or make something better every week for 10 years and see how well you do.

who will be the third to earn the ire of the internet in a manner that far outstrips his fanbase and existing circle of relevance?

who will be the third maxfun host to end up being discovered by the broader internet, who goes “who the dick is this weird rear end in a top hat?”

problem with posing this question is making the assumption mbmbam listeners can name any maxfun podcasts besides the ones that have annoying ads after the money zone

i don't really understand how eliott kalan hasn't been canceled by left twitter seeing as he was head writer of the daily show during the late jon stewart years and seems like he'd be prime "this is what libs are like" fodder but actually being the person in charge of a consensus-establishing media apparatus ranks far below Extreme Middle Child Syndrome.

he also was the head writer on the MST3K revival so he probably earned some nerd tenure from doing that

out of a lot of the maxfun hosts, I get the sense that Elliot really dislikes like the contemporary left and Bernie people, but he’s also an Emmy winning media professional who knows how to do personal brand maintenance and which fights are worth having and which conversations to avoid entirely

It's because nobody knows of the existence of Eliott Kalan. Beandad messed up by thinking Twitter was the go to platform for long form Gen X Dad "Comedy."

all i know about Elliot is:
- sounds like the turtle from Sly Cooper
- likes to annoy his co-hosts like Travis does
- thinks animated movies shouldn't have adult humor
- when given the reins of The Adventure Zone for a guest episode, immediately steered the humor into "can we gently caress all the women"

The among us thing gave me such intense secondhand embarassment. Not just the speech about playing the game like “bad people” but the fact that it was in support of a godawful adult talking like a baby character bit ugh ugh ugh. I can’t believe I was vaguely going “ehh he’s alright” itt the other day, I don’t even want to admit I know who this guy is now

I finally looked up that Travis clip and I didn't realize at first that he was sitting outside the lobby so that people couldn't start the game until he got his speech in.

e: the clip itself, in case anybody somehow hasn't seen it and thinks maybe the 2 quotes of it are overselling it.
