There's that one episode where they got real serious about being nerds for like 40 minutes, but... we don't like to talk about that one.

Breaker breaker, good buddy, we got a great job.

10/10, everybody go watch what a good good road brother Griffin is.

Travis doing his impression of Griffin this week made me laugh out loud in public.

MaxFun seems like complete garbo and I have never been even vaguely tempted to listen to a non-McElroy MaxFun show.

I used to listen to a ton of 'em before I discovered good podcasts and yeah, this is mostly a good instinct. Lots of twee nonsense.

Stop Podcasting Yourself is solid, despite falling squarely in the "couple'a white guys in a room talkin'" category of podcasts, Dave and Graham are funny and have good chemistry so it works (not so much in the ads, but then again the McElroy ads often aren't great either). Highlights include guest Charlie Demers referring to the lead singer of Mini Kiss as "Recessive Gene Simmons," Jon Dore irritating the living poo poo out of Dave on all his appearances, the Lessons Learned from Flex Magazine Theme Song performed by PFT (who's been on a ton and seems to love the show), Graham constantly getting dragged into fights on public transit despite seeming like a jovial Canadian hobo, and Dave getting shot in the head that one time.

I've been rewatching some of the older Overviews with Justin and Griffin and man I loved this bit from Nosgoth. "So where does this leave us, vis-a-vis gothic romance?"

That Justin story about the cursed self-defense hatchet is now a top five MBMBAM moment for me, what an image.

Anyone remember which MBMBAM had the story about Justin watching a documentary about what is considered to be THE best place place on Earth to go scuba diving, and realizing he'd been there before but didn't actually bother to go diving and instead opted to go watch crab races or something equally stupid? It was a fairly recent episode, but I've relistened to like half a dozen hunting for it and haven't gotten it yet (I was certain it was Seaburglars of the Archipelago but it wasn't).

EDIT:

I think it was 334: BYOBurger because I remember listening to it at a bus stop and it was near the story about whether the squirrel cookies someone brought was just for dogs or were also people food and I couldn't stop laughing.

Yep that was it, thanks!

Just a heads up if anyone's interested, the intro to the latest Besties is Justin telling a brief tale about getting his yellow belt, thus beginning his journey to become a living weapon.

McElroy-adjacent but Nick and Pat just spent half an hour talking about how good Wolfenstein: The New Order is and they are completely right.

I heard it as "live eps while we brainstorm ideas for the next campaign, then we live-workshop some one-off stories in the different worlds to see what's best."

Also the only stream of Awful Squad I have watched was very boring because it was Russ picking up and dropping guns while Griffin was yelling "holy poo poo things are popping off here" and coordinating boat escapes in the background.

This is unironically my favorite, the idea that amazing action movie poo poo is going down off-camera while Russ carefully manages his inventory makes me laugh so hard.

Just tuned in and Russ was slowly sorting through a dead guy's loot while the dude's buddy was killing the rest of the team. I'm home.

Catching up on the last Awful Squad and saw this treasure:

- Russ enters house, notices zombie following him, panics, shuts door
- Russ sees gun on the floor, immediately forgets about zombie despite already having similar gun
- zombie basically instantly gets past the door and starts punching Russ from behind while he's in inventory dick-around mode
- Russ finally turns around and fires... with the empty gun he failed to load

He's not bad, he's a performance artist and you guys just don't get it.

Late to this but the revelation during Tower of Error that someone hacked Justin's OpenTable account in order to make him a reservation for one at Guy Fieri's restaurant is insane
