MBMBAM, TAZ, Schmanners, Bunker Buddies, Interrobang, Trends Like These, Till Death Do Us Blart, producer/ segment guest on Can I Pet Your Dog. Did I get everything? That's eight, plus he was formerly a host of In Case of Emergency. I think he produced Wham Bam Pow for a while? Dude's goddamn prolific at any rate.

Silentman0 posted:What I love most about Cool Games Inc. is that there's some genuinely good game ideas in there. A co-op/counter-op RPG where another player controls the difficulty of the dungeon? A Trauma Center x Twinkle Star Sprites game where how good you are puts poo poo your opponent's field? Sign me right the gently caress up. I'm surprised no one (as far as I know) has made a surgeon simulator style cooking game, even with edible food. Seems like a subject ripe for exploitation. Injuries, poorly cut meat, accidental fires, etc.

The various Polygonners have all seemed a little corny or confused at times, but I appreciate that they've all approached 'not getting' Griffin and Nick's concepts (either of the game, or the show itself) in different ways.

Listening to the first episode of Rose Buddies last night was pretty satisfying since The only episode of the US Bachelor* franchise I've seen is the one where Caitlin sleeps with Nick and Griffin went on a big rant about how the show's narrative seemed to be about punishing her for it and that's messed up. Also Rachel explained a heap of stuff to the listener that my friend also explained to me when we watched it. E.g. First impression rose almost never wins. So that was neat.

Yeah I enjoyed the joke well enough, but it wasn't one of my favourites. Plus the way Lin's having people do it is substantially different from the bit as I remember it. Mostly I'm interesting in seeing the guy who's basically the toast of NYC right now mess with(?) Griffin.

Scudworth posted:The lending/loan ads were sketchy and awful, made me wonder if they can refuse sponsors. I'm pretty sure they have in the past. Jesse at least has talked about turning down sponsors that aren't a fit for the network/ his shows on it. Plus I remember someone (Theresa Thorn?) telling an anecdote about Xtreme Restaints and saying she emailed the brothers like "Is this something you would be comfortable doing?" and they were like "Hell yeah, sign us up."

I hadn't heard of Flavour of Love before this podcast, and I had assumed maybe it was an attempt to combine the magic of cooking reality shows and dating reality shows or something weird like that. I was shocked and disappointed.

I'm not normally one to dump on McElroy adjacent peeps, e.g. other Polygonners or other Max-Fun shows in the thread, but I figured I'd watch one of Nick's gameplay overviews since I like him on Coolgames inc. I got bored about three minutes in because it was pretty dry/ a 'proper' discussion of the game. Then I switched a griffin and Justin one and immediately started laughing when Justin faked VR-motion sickness. So I guess what I'm saying is these dudes know what I like.

Toxxupation posted:I seriously think that most people should go with the extended cut of episode 1, to be honest. It flows well and never really felt bloated. A little unfocused, sure, but unlike say Nerd Poker or Friends at the Table (both of which DESPERATELY needed really ruthless editing just to approach coherency, much less enjoyability), both of which have AWFUL chargen episodes, TAZ's is relatively quick and feels pretty tight, if just a bit goofy. I didn't really enjoy the extended episode 1. I can't really remember the details, but I found it opened with too much dry rules explanation and/or character sheet summary. Not exactly putting their best foot forward. Incidentally, if you're after other funny, character focused AP podcasts, I can't recommend Campaign enough. It's a star wars game by a handful of chicago improvisers, it's very funny. e: Also the bit in Rockport Limited when Justin had everyone focus on the door then swiped the loot is still my favourite bit of the show.

None of us realized but we missed a whole Big Gulp themed arc. there was even a character from it present in the "returning bad guys" fight. He did a great job of editing since no one realized The Vorelock was even there.

SpacePig posted:I only ever listen to 2 non-McElroy Max Fun shows, are there ads for MBMBaM? I've never heard one. The TAZ ones are definitely the best ads on the network, because they're actually funny in the ad, but JJHo and SPY have had some half-decent ones, too. They used to have this one where Justin would pretend to be Jimmy Buffet and contrary to how you think that might go, it's just about the worst thing I've ever heard from them.

I've been really enjoying the Polygon stuff lately, I appreciate that they've apparently decided to double down on weird entertainment videos. Car Boys is strangely relaxing to watch, the Nuzlocke is the Griffin Let's Play I never knew I needed, and while it's not a McElroy venture per se, I've quite enjoyed the first two episodes of Simone de Rochefort's SEO Play.
