Give a little time for the child within you. Don't be afraid to be young and free. Undo the locks and throw away the keys and take off your shoes and socks and run you. It's Jordan, Jesse Go. I'm Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart. Jordan Morris, boy, detective. You know me, Jordan.

I love to go to the movies. Yeah, you're a film buff. You call them flicks, though. I love- You're not one of those pretentious Godard heads. You like flicks. I love all kinds of films from The Usual Suspects to Boondock Saints. Just the whole breadth, every kind of movie I love. So you love dorm movies from the mid 2000s. So we're talking Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Donnie Darko,

The Big Lebowski, The Dude Abides. Can I just say, Jordan, The Big Lebowski is just like doing his thing. It's so random. I'm like, who is this guy? He's random. Can I tell you this about The Big Lebowski, Jordan? Sometimes I'm like, Lebowski, Jordan. Sometimes I'm like, I'm kind of like the Big Lebowski. Because I'm kind of soiled and I'm high most of the time, but everyone loves me, I think. It's true. Because I'm so cool and charming, just like the real Big Lebowski from the movie, The Big Lebowski. And people who are fun, but not funny, love to dress up as you for Halloween.

Yeah, exactly. And people who are fun, but not funny, love to dress up as you for Halloween. They're a lot of fun. They're not funny. They're a lot of, let's say, distinctive interests. Okay, this is a child who she'll lock on and won't let go. And once the train has left the station, there's no stopping it. No matter how hard I pump up and down on that thing that two guys pump up and down on to make it a little cart go down the track. You know the kind of thing I'm talking about? Does that stop trains? Is that the purpose of that thing? Well, I could try and catch the train. I thought it was to move hobos from place to place. No, I think it's to catch a train if your daughter is a train and you're trying to catch the train to stop it. Jesse, I have

lost track of your metaphor. Continue. Jordan, don't worry. There was no coherent metaphor to track. It was just a series of words. And what else is a podcast? She, about a year ago, became obsessed with an internet trailer, film trailer, for a movie called Winnie the Pooh, Blood and Honey. Yes. Have you heard about this film? to to the from what i understand winnie the pooh is now in the public domain so you can do any fucked up edgelord shit you want to with that famous honey loving bear so i guess the first you know folks to capitalize on this are a are these folks who made this kind of low budget horror movie where winnie the pooh fuck shit up i guess i don't really remember the trailer is it a human centipede thing with eeyore is he does he have his mouth sewn to eeyore's ass and is subsisting off his shit i mean i'm

confusing my viral horror trailers but to, like, when you're talking about sentient stuffed animals, sewing mouths to assholes is dramatically less inhumane than it is with human beings. I mean, I'm not saying that it's not still gross. It's just way less gross to do that with something that is sewn fundamentally. Right. Rather than built of flesh. Sure. Who knows what it's like to get sown the guy gets sown on the reg you know who among us our guests are guests are raising enthusiastically raising their hands and typing contributions into the chat desperately right now

let's bring them in we got three nasty shit eaters here with us today who I know are going to want to weigh in on this. Please welcome the number one, two, and three turd nomers. Wait, in which order? In which order? I haven't seen this week's power rankings. Let me load up ESPN.com. Wait, is that on ESPN or ESPN Deportes? I can't remember which one it is.

The shit eater, the nasty shit nommer rankings. Okay, they're the co-hosts of My Brother, My Brother and Me. No, Joey Chestnut is number one. Always. And then. He dunks them in water. He dunks the turds in a little glass of water. Number two is Zion Williamson, the basketball star.

Pick the right crowd for that reference, Jesse. Yeah, thank you. That was a home run. The co-hosts of My Brother, My Brother and Me and The Adventure Zone and the authors of the brand new graphic novel, The Adventure Zone, the 11th hour they are number one new york times bestsellers and number one two and three new york times shit eaters griffin justice and justin and travis mcelroy you know what i'm punching it up here justin your new name's justice and travis mcelroy thank you very much it's a hand cart it's called a hand cart you very much. It's a hand cart. It's called a hand cart that you pump. Thank you.

It's a hand cart. The hand cart is insufficiently grand for such a beautiful device. I have nothing else to contribute to the show, though. So I'm just going to bow out now. Yeah, you can punch out. That was good. That was good, man. Travis McElroy, everybody.

Thanks for coming on the program, Travis McElroy. Travis is leaning back with his hands behind his head. He's ready. He's ready for rest and relaxation. Ready to get that tummy tickled is what he is. Made himself vulnerable. Pooh style? Pooh style. Wait, so Jesse, do you have a review of Winnie the Pooh, Blood and Ready for us? Well, first of all, the first component of my review is, did I want to go see this movie? Absolutely not. Like 100% no is the amount. Scary.

First of all, potentially scary. Second of all, potentially boring. Third of all, potentially I could get COVID. Fourth of all. From the movie? Yeah. It's that rough a ride. That's how twisted, that's how twisted this

shit is this shit is really twisted travis just so you know jesse also went to the 4d experience where they shoot they spray honey scent and covid out of the back of the chair in front of you it's like an old vincent price movie where they tangled the seats when the monster appeared yeah it's incense around. Yeah. So that's the first component of my review, Jordan, is that going to this movie was not something I wanted to do. But I went on a popular movie ticket buying website. I won't say the name, but it rhymes with a shmandango and bought myself and my 11-year-old tickets to this R rated horror movie.

And it came with your printed out dad of the year award. At the movie theater in Alhambra, California, like, like that movie theater in Alhambra, California has a vaguely abandoned vibe. It's one of the many megaplexes in the United States that no one goes to anymore. Went there, got some popcorn, got some Sour Patch watermelons. Is it in that mall that has the Japanese cheesecakes? That seems likely. I couldn't tell you that 100% for sure. Anyway, there's some Japanese cheesecakes I like in Alhambra, and I think they're connected to a deserted mall. Anyway, this isn't interesting to talk I like in Alhambra, and I think they're connected to a deserted mall.

Anyway, this isn't interesting to talk about. Continue to talk about the movie. So, I mean, it's more interesting than the movie. Let's be frank. Yeah, I was going to say. They're neck and neck. I'm actually kind of, I kind of see this sliding doors moment ahead of me where I hear more about Winnie the Pooh, Blood and Honey or more about Japanese cheesecakes. I got to tell you, it's a horse race, gang. No, no, no. Jesse's building. Okay, I'll talk a little bit about him his name is uncle tetsu he makes japanese

cheesecakes i'm gonna put their website in the chat so you can see this cheesecake making little fucker is uncle tetsu a man or an idea like is he like no he's a man papa? He's kind of a beard papa-like figure. Beard papa, of course, is the cream puff, the cream puff chain. Oh, man. This looks so good. This looks good. This looks good, though. Here in Alhambra, you visit my boy, Uncle Tetsu.

He makes cheesecake biscotti? Yeah. Uncle Tetsu is a real guy, and I want to be his friend. I'm looking at a picture. There is both an abstract version of him and a real life. And I'm looking at the real life version of him showing off one of his famous cheesecakes and wearing a sweatshirt of himself. And I want to hug him immediately. That was my immediate reaction was to want to hug him. He's a man and an idea. He's unkillable. You can't stop him.

A man, an idea, unkillable, Panama. So yes, the cheesecakes are good. The movie maybe doesn't sound like it was, Jesse. Here's the thing. If you were going to see Winnie the Pooh, Blood and Honey in a movie theater, and it's in a special limited engagement, my question to the four of you is- It's weird that you referred to parenting as that, by the way. For me, it's like a lifelong commitment. Parenting, it's just about a month, and then it goes right to VOD.

You can buy it on Amazon for four bucks. I watched it on 2b with ads what would you want out of that experience like what kind of experience would you desire from going to see winnie the poop blood and honey uh me personally i would hope that it would be a uh schlocky a little bit like a trolls horror kind of experience where it's kind of funny, right? And it's like fun to watch and you're kind of laughing out loud at the poorly made nature of it. I would

be pleased to have surprisingly moving depictions of lovemaking. That would be... Not just sex for sex's sake. Right. Touching. It pushes the story. sex's sake. Right. Right. Touching. It pushes the story.

It builds character. Yeah, narrative. Narrative. Narrative fucking. Yes. Yes. If I'm there with my oldest child, I would want a big garbage can that's sound insulated that I can place over him for the duration of the movie or else he will have nightmares forever i i do i do believe he got a little freaked out during sing too so i do think that winnie the pooh blood and honey would

rattle his chains a bit there's some scary parts of sing too just for the record yeah it felt like a little bit of a bait and switch after sing one which wasn't so much of a yeah my daughter i would say she physically vibrated the entire time but she is much less long-term upset about scary stuff than i am like i am able as a you know i'm an adult man i'm able to kind of distance myself from what's happening on the screen reasonably well, but like, I don't enjoy a horror thing. And I could theoretically be like, actually upset by a horror thing. Whereas for whatever reason, my 11 year old who again, shakes like an Elm tree the entire time she's watching it is completely unbothered by it and wants to talk about it enthusiastically and cheerfully in abstract terms immediately upon

is the shaking and an excitement shaking a fear shaking what kind of shaking is the shaking is she cold yeah well i don't let her wear a jacket in the movie theater. Yeah. I just give her a tank top and tell her to deal with it. Otherwise nobody could see the tattoos. Daddy paid for this ink and everybody's going to see it. I think she like, she is looking for, she really likes the intensity of the experience. If I was going to describe like for her, that is,

and there are times like when she doesn't want that. And she's really great about just being like, well, I'm done and feeling fine with that. But like, I think she wants the intensity. And so the excitement and the scared, like it's not an abstract scared. She doesn't ever feel like like I don't ever get the impression that she's going to like be thinking about winnie the pooh is gonna break in through her bedroom door that night or something it's just she knows daddy has a gun so it's totally cool don't you worry about it daddy's strapped yeah good guys with guns stop bad winnie the poohs am i right right yes that's my platform the only thing that stops a bad poo with a gun well imodium is the only thing that stops a bad poo with a gun well imodium is the only thing that stops a bad poo

but i like that good guy with imodium sorry sorry pictures of winnie the pooh holding a gun unrelated to the film do you think would show up just in a cursory google search that's a great question gr Griffin. A computer breaking amount. Probably a lot. It sounds like one you're prepared to answer. I'm not going to lie here. Well, here's the problem with Winnie the Pooh being a licensed firearm user is where does he...

He just has to hold it. He has the right to bear arms. Travis, goddammit. Come on, man. Some of us are trying to get things done, man. Some of us were working really hard on a joke about how Pooh Bear doesn't wear pants, and so there's nowhere for him to conceal

carry, but then you came in over the top. I was dunking. I was MJ, but then I look up, and you're Dikembe Mutombo over me. Zion Williamson, in conclusion. Yeah. Yeah.

My daughter just thinks it, first of all, Griffin eight. And I look forward to finding out the answer. Yeah. My daughter is not, is she's excited and scared, but not excited and scared.

If it makes sense. And I too, Travis kind of thought this would be, I thought it would be kind of goofy. Yeah. Like a Sharknado kind of thing. Yes, yes. And Sharknado is not.

Hold on, how did you pronounce that? Sharknado? I've been saying Sharknado. Let's call the whole thing out. I've only seen it written, I guess. Yeah. I believe it first appeared in withering heights was the first time i read it a lot of people don't know that jordan is actually

australian he just does an american accent on most of his podcasts that's right i do this is how i talk very amish he's an amish elsewhere. That's right. Just a boy from Pennsylvania raising a barn. That's right. He's had a head trauma. Lots of consonants. That's right. Love to say a consonant. I have to say that is what I expected. And my daughter loves that kind of thing. She does very odd lines between good for good sake, good for bad sake, et cetera, et cetera. I'm never sure in what manner she's appreciating something like that. But she loves those Sharknado's, which, you know, they have their moments, but I mostly find that kind of like being bad on purpose to be tedious.

And I sort of expected that from Winnie the Pooh, Blood and Honey. It turns out Winnie the Pooh, Blood and Honey is well-acted and relentlessly bleak. Just devastatingly gut-punchingly bleak. And it is just... Directed by Todd Phillips, right? Todd Phillips? Yeah. It's about...

Man, by the time Winnie the Pooh chokes that one woman to death with menstrual blood, it is really... God almighty. Does that happen? No, it doesn't. It doesn't happen. That's in the Todd Phillips version. Oh. Release the Phillips cut.

Release the Phillips cut. Yeah. Hey, I know the three of you number two munchers all have kids. I have no kids. Gotta get a son. That's my catchphrase. Do you guys ever have to like... Do you not have a... Jordan, do you not...

Do you not have a... I mean, I know that you've been... I'm working on it! He's working on it, folks. He's working on getting a son. That's my catchphrase. This seems like more of a catch bit at this point. This seems like a catch sequence of patter.

Maybe a new response to that would be, I'm cumming as much as I can. I can't make cum that fast. I can't make the cum that fast here in Pennsylvania. Mate. Fuck. I said mate. So. Mate. Fuck. I said mate. So.

Yeah. Do y'all ever have to, for the sake of your kids, ingest some, like, pop culture that you wouldn't necessarily like otherwise? No, Jordan. Wow. What are you talking about? Nah, dog. Sorry.

This was a bad road to go down. There are so many weird, like, there is probably what you're thinking of, Jordan, which is like cartoons and like movies and stuff, for sure. There is also YouTube rabbit hole things. But Jordan, I tell you, worse than that, my daughter somehow stumbled upon clips from the Emoji movie on YouTube. And she's like, I want to watch the emoji movie. And I have had to tell her, I said, quote,

the emoji movie will not dirty our TVs. And that is, it was a stance I took. I say, you can watch it on your iPad or you can turn it on and I'll leave the room. Those are your two options. Not daddy's flat screen though. Travis, let me ask you this. Don't you think Justin Tim timberlake is pretty darn funny

the guy can sing but he's also pretty funny now are you talking about trolls because i like trolls yeah we're in that franchise very carefully i enjoyed that one the emoji movie if i'm not mistaken tj what yeah tj mill Miller and I'm fine, just not. Hollywood heartthrob. TJ Miller and Patrick Stewart as a talking poop. That's fun casting.

It's actually perfect for him. He did mocap for it which no one asked him to. Yeah, it was weird. He showed up in his own polka dot suit. I can sit here and lie to you all about who consumes

what media in this house, but some nights after the kids go to bed, I like to pour myself a nice glass of cab and turn on Blippi and just enjoy it. Just have a little personal time for me to get to know my friend Blippi and just enjoy it. Just have a little personal time for me to get to know my friend Blippi a little bit better.

Just mute it. So you just enjoyed the visuals. Yeah. My daughter, Charlie is a, and the stuff she watches on YouTube is in decipher. She was sick, homesick yesterday.

And so I sat with her for a while and it's just these families having more fun than ours. That's the genre is like, and not just having more fun than ours. That's the genre. It's like, and not just having more fun. Like, hey, today we're going to a music park. No, more like today we're going to a music park and they said we could eat one of the rides. So if we can't eat it in 20 minutes, then we all have to paint ourselves pink. Yeah.

It's a kind of family fun, Cuckery. Yeah. I don't know how people, I think there's a lot of like shipping on here of like kids who are friends and then they're like, everybody's shipping us. They have couple names for the kids.

It sucks. It's all really, really bad. I don't know how people get into these scenarios where they suddenly find themselves filming everything their family is doing and then only eating pink on a given day for, for YouTube. I mean, we do want to,

besides the second half, it's not that far off from our life. My dude, what colors do you guys eat? Yeah. I only blue. Cause I'm a boy. Boys eat blue,

girls eat pink. Travis just had his gender eat reveal party. I've had to numerous times say to my daughter, my eldest baby, say real families don't inflate a bouncy castle in their living room and have a slumber party in it. They're not doing that either, hun. The lights are still on. They're filming it. They're not sleeping for real in it, child. Yeah. hun the lights are still on they're filming it they're not sleeping for real in it child yeah i saw henry watch a video where one of the mr beast guys destroyed another one of the mr beast

guys house with like chemical foam like elephant toothpaste and then he looked at me like that looks fun let's do that and i was like destroy our house with chemical foam? That's a bad thing to do. What about we go to the science museum? Yeah. There is a genre, and I have also seen the YouTube personality, Mr. Beast. I've worked very, very hard, much harder than I have worked to get my 11-year-old to avoid horror films. I have worked to try and extricate my 11 and eight year olds from the Mr. Beastiverse. And Mr. Beast is a man who goes on YouTube, who has, to my eyes, and granted, I am a generation removed from Mr. Beast, but to my eyes,

no discernible talent or skills. And he spends huge amounts of money and is the most popular entertainer in the world wait hold on sorry did winnie the pooh just walk in because there have been shots fired but like truly his his great gift is to spend a hundred thousand dollars in an interesting way. Yeah. And he just runs around with his indistinguishable friends. Now, granted, are we currently in a group of five indistinguishable generic white men?

Yes. Yes. Yeah. Yes. But some of us have beards. Now, hold on. Jesse's tall. Yeah. Yes. But some of us have beards. Now, hold on. Jesse's tall.

Yeah. Thank you. Hey, are you guys okay with me asking you down the middle interview questions while we eat hot wings? Jordan, it sounds like you're the greatest interviewer of all time. Someone should email me about you. You're discounting the time he recreated Squid Games. Yeah.

Yeah. That's not what he just did. I don't think I saw the time he recreated Squid Games. Yeah, that's... What about the time he recreated Squid Games? I don't think I saw the time he recreated Squid Games. No, no, no, no, not Hot Wings guy, Mr. Beast. The one that I saw recently, he bought everything in a grocery store. Bought all the stuff in a grocery store. And the whole time I'm watching it, i'm just looking at these employees trying to seem happy even the sausage yeah even the sausage jordan and jordan whoa not just the italian also

the linguica oh whoa oh man this dude sounds fucking bananas. Can I tell you this about Jordan? How'd he do that? Number one, yes, he did buy the bananas. Number two, this guy is fucking twisted. Yeah. Cool. What it is is it's basically real life Brewster's Millions. Yeah.

And then people keep giving him more money. Right. He's Brewstering. And he's like, I just want out of the game. I'm trying so hard to send all this money. I'm just going to give it to a guy. Wow, we love that. Here's twice as much as you just gave to that guy.

Shit. And it's hard because he's also, he does the actions that remove him from any video before last. It was, this is not a joke. I cured 1,000 people's blindness. And yeah, right? So he probably didn't. He didn't. But he paid for 1,000.

He went to blind college for blindness curing. That cost a million dollars. Paid for 1,000 cataract surgeries across the globe. Yeah. What do you say about that? It doesn't matter if he has talent or not. He's just curing cataracts across the planet. He's unstoppable.

My favorite version, and I say that with no irony to it whatsoever, and no snark, is these videos of what appear to be attractive groups of young 20-somethings who go on extravagant vacations and like film it and like handheld cameras just going whoa and look at this whoa that's the greatest shower i've ever seen whoa look at this bed and it's underwater and like that kind of

thing and bb loves it and frankly fellas so do i i'm there with them fun yeah my my six-year-old is living vicariously through them, and so am I. I have a favorite influencer. I'm going to put a video in the chat of Uncle Tetsu cliff diving. Oh, yeah. I was on Judge Sean Hodgman tour in Denver, Colorado. Got to see our friend David Borey. Got to go to a cool museum that is a combination of an incredible decorative arts collection and a pretty poor

collection of Colorado art. I thought you were going to say a museum that was a combination Taco Bell Pizza Hut. Yeah. This museum does not at any point explain why these two things are in the same museum. One assumes that an eccentric rich man built a museum, but there's no information about that in the whole museum, but extraordinary collection of decorative art. And I needed a haircut because since the pandemic, I've been cutting my own hair. But when you have hair as short as mine, after about a week, it starts to look weird and sad. It's poking out in a sad, it starts to look weird and sad. Like it's poking out in a sad, unkempt way.

And so I just Googled barbershops near my hotel. Jesse, that's a great first step. Yeah, thank you, Jordan. It's usually what I do. I didn't know there was another way of going about that. The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step. You could check dadyelp, by the way. You could check daddyelp.com. If anybody wants to get that started, by the way check dadyelp.com right if anybody wants to get that started by the way justin owns that url hit us up we're trying to make some money off the urls that

justin owns to just get us back on our feet so if you could help us out that big dadyelp.com it's available for you dadyelp.com do you need night crawlers or slacks yeah it's a great place to find either but nothing else i went to a a barber shop that was like the nearest one to my hotel that was open at 8 30 or 9 o'clock in the morning which was when i had a minute before going to get our airplane or whatever and it was a very unmarked barbershop on a the kind of downtown street that also has you know like a a warehouse that's shipping out some kind of toy that contains a chip that's used to make cocaine or something you know what i mean sure absolutely yes like a just a like a weird generic shadiness street and i went in there it was completely taciturn barber and a giant overweight rottweiler

who immediately jumped on me she was very sweet i was very glad to be but in a strange place being jumped on by a giant rottweiler is not always the first thing you want but i'm like you know what here i am i just need a high fade you know what i mean this is a barber shop he's gonna cut a fade and i'm gonna look more like bull from night court in my live shows i sit down in the chair this tacurn, non-speaking man who looks a little bit like a less ripped DMX. Okay. But like the rough living version of DMX, the one that didn't know how to use the internet. Still pretty ripped.

Yeah. He was. That's true. He remained ripped. And he turns on, you know, in a barbershop, there's usually a giant tv that's usually showing espn or whatever he turns it on and he doesn't like change anything he just turns it on and it's showing youtube like in the cinema view but not in full screen mode like you can still see the borders. You can still see the recommended videos. Yes, completely. A hundred percent. And it is a guy, again, I don't mean to come down too hard on this guy because I'm untalented, but with no discernible talent, doing tours of apartments in

New York City. Oh yeah. And not like architectural tours or like design tours. It's not like, look at what they've done with the color story in the living room or something. It's just pretty generic luxury apart. Like in New York, these are probably $1.5 million apartments, but they're the kind of apartment that in a normal place would be just a, you could buy it for 300 grand in the downtown walkable area of Nashville or something. It's like not notable in any other way, just him wandering around with the real estate agent in like selfie stick mode. And the real estate agent is like trying to figure out how much of a YouTube personality he wants to be live on air with this

random guy with a backwards base oh he was wearing a backwards baseball hat also okay which is always a sign of a of a cool slash chill dude you know if you're the if you're the realtor and you're like yeah i'm having a rough month haven't made it haven't closed lot. This one's like 1.5 million. It was it. Oh, this guy has a phone on a selfie stick. Yeah, fuck. He's not. He's not going to buy this. Yeah, this guy can't afford a different guy

to follow him around. He's not going to buy this apartment. Shit. So I understand the universal appeal of having the clips from last night's Broncos game on the TV. Sure. But let's say you're in Denver, Colorado.

You're in a dilapidated barbershop on a shady street. Just looking for love. Grudgingly cutting someone's hair. Grudgingly is the best I could use to describe this man. What leads you to take a look at the panoply of information available to you and think like, I got to put this guy who's definitely a Yankees fan wearing a cotton backwards baseball hat and saying bro a lot on my TV, giving a generic apartment tour of an apartment in New York. I'm imagining a scenario where a stranger walks into my house and sits down on my couch and says, just dazzle me.

The amount that I'm going to have to guess about this person, just based on, you know, vibe check, essentially. I don't think that this is the worst swing someone could have taken obviously not appealing to you it sounds like you did not enjoy this experience at all but you know there's worse things that someone could assume you would enjoy watching are you suggesting that this guy looked at me and was like, I don't know. What do outsider white guys like? Probably real estate prank videos. Cotton baseball hats backwards. What's the number?

Okay. What's the number one? You know, 10 people walk into a room, 10 strangers walk into a room. You have all of like YouTube or TV movies, whatever. 10 strangers walk into a room, 10 strangers walk into a room. You have all of like YouTube or TV, movies, whatever. 10 strangers walk into a room. You have 30 seconds to get something on the TV. What's the poll?

From YouTube? God fucking great question. TV, movies, or YouTube. 10 people walk into a room. Our contention has been Mythbusters. Just like from like a, across the board, like,

oh yeah, this will appeal on some level of interest to you. And I think there's an element of like, what do you not need sound for a little bit too, right? Like is it, how much attention are people paying to this? They show Mythbuster marathons on days when you're going to be in a room with your grandpa. Like, they do it on like, it's like,

hey, we're here for you. Just push these buttons and MythBusters will come on. You and your grandpa can silently nod and just be like, that's a hell of an explosion. Or I didn't think that would work. Or I did think that would work. You know, whatever. MythBusters. The beautiful thing to me, Jesse, is your experience of sitting down and

expecting sports to come on the TV. And it was tours of fancy apartments is the inverse to my experience of that happening. Where I'm like, ooh, fancy apartments. Yes, please. I was afraid it would be Tallman bouncing a ball up and down. But here we are. Crown molding. Heavens.

Ah, excellent. I could never afford this. Excellent. Heavens, those sconces. Ah, look at the view of the bridge. I really want to be clear about what I was watching in here, because I think we're getting into better homes and gardens kind of territory. What I was watching was, hey, what's up? It's me, Frank.

We're going to take a look at some apartments in New York City. And then there's a part where he goes around and he's like, what's up? It's me, Frank. We're going to take a look at some apartments in New York City. And then there's a part where he goes around and he's like, Times Square, Midtown, there's luxury cars. Oh, look, over here, there's an Applebee's. Oh, yeah, here's a policeman standing on the street. Jesse, I don't want to panic you. This is the most engaging I have found you in years. You have found it. This is the most engaging I have found you in years.

You have found it. This energy. Cling on to it. Hold on. Bottle it. Sell it. Get rich. On some level, that's maybe the most engaging you've felt in a long time. I watched you light up, Jesse.

I could watch you light up. You were lighting up like a pinball machine, man. You were using parts of your body I've never seen you utilize before. It was amazing. Justin, can I answer your question about what I would throw on the TV, please? OK, think about it for two seconds before you react. OK, the nightmare before Christmas. Mm hmm.

Yes. You're shaking your heads. No, but I think you mean, yes. What do grandpas think about that, though? Because we really have to include grandpas in this equation. Well, grandpas think it's a Christmas movie, so they're not going to complain about it. Right.

Because they want to be a good sport. Like, oh, I guess I got to. On Christ's behalf? I think you have a window of time from September 1st to December 31st, where that is a great answer. Yeah, sure. You're right. Halloween and Christmas. If it's June and you put on Nightmare Before Christmas, there are people who are like, huh.

Well, really? Huh. Okay. I guess. It's possible, Travis, that it is a good choice. And this is something I'm thinking about here, Jordan. Yeah. It's obviously it's a good choice for, you know, cozy goths.

Yeah. But I'm wondering if... Those are the only people I invite over. Yeah. Don't invite them in, Jordan. You never know when one of them's a Dracula. Oh, fuck, yes. Well, that's why I have a mirror outside the door. And if they don't appear in the mirror, then

I shut the door. If they don't have black fingernails and Disney pins, Jordan's not on board. If I have ten strangers in my home, I have way bigger fish to fry than what I'm going to put on TV to entertain them. Something has gone terribly, terribly wrong. That's the

next M. Night Shyamalan movie, Ten Strangers in My Home. Ten Strangers in My Home. If there are, I'm going to say, three strangers in my home, I'm already in the panic room. I'm already pretty sealed up. So you're saying basically, Griffin, that if more than three people are in your house

that you don't know, they'd better be bailing. They'd better be. Can we do a quick background check? Not, you know know looking into people's oh okay that's what i thought you meant i was like on the people in my home i don't know any other definition no so griffin and justin both have the ability to throw up backgrounds on their zoom i guess we will probably all do but yeah just i we only have this sort of like technical savvy we were sort of game bloggers for a while and it just comes with the territory of just being good at cyber stuff yeah the your skill with cyber stuff shines through i'm envious of

your cyber skills honestly i'm honored i'm honored to work with such extraordinary vloggers now now hold on speaking of cyber stuff justin has had an image of winnie the pooh holding a shotgun up for a while but he just threw a tiny corgi up at the bottom, it looks like. A little clip art corgi. Corgi, is it snorting or sniffing a flower or expelling some butterflies? Oh, Justin just changed it to him going, huh? So this image of Winnie the Pooh that you threw up, now you have the deal with it, Shay. It's very good. How'd you do that?

It's hard. Yeah. I can't turn him off. It's hard to give a running commentary of your various visual gag. This is my life now. I'm always dealing with it. This little joint is going to

fall into my mouth and never come out. I just want to see my children's faces. I can't. The deal with it, Shay. This photo of Winnie the Pooh holding a shotgun that you put up, I should say photo, I should say drawing, this appears to be from an actual Winnie the Pooh thing. It seems like it's too good to be fan art. Do you know anything about this?

Is he looking for heffalumps and woozles, maybe? Yeah, to fucking blast him. Yeah, I just Google image searched Winnie the Pooh with a gun and got myself on a few lists this is an audio show and you're just you're disrupting the program it's not my it's not my audio show i am disturbed by winnie the pooh's nubbin oh there i said it mine has okay my picture had a sexy winnie the pooh on it that's all you you need to know. Griffin has an ultra ripped Winnie the Pooh in his background. And he has had that in the background for quite some time. It's been very

distracting, very difficult to do a show for people who are listening. Yeah. And then just as his siblings started to get a little more attention than he was getting he zoomed in on the area where this muscular winnie the pooh would have i can kind of go in there too the way that the greens like the photo is like blocking out my mic i can kind of like hide in his little in his in his little tuck and that's fine there is a nub in there there's not he doesn't have what he should have, which is a bear's penis. I think we've all seen Winnie the Pooh and thought he should have a bear's penis, but instead he has a Ken-like nubbin between his muscular thighs. And Griffin here is using his, I think that's a Shure SM7. Is that correct, Griffin?

The workhorse. Yeah. The classic broadcast microphone. As used by the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, as we all remember, that was Rush's mic of choice. Yeah. R.I.P., R.I.P., we stand. R.I.P., R.I.P., we stand, an unproblematic king. Live from the EIB studios, it's Griffin'sin's microphone muscular winnie the pooh here to tell us about feminazis i just wanted to can i circle back to the fact that winnie the pooh is

sexy inherently pantsless all the time so you're suggesting i've put some sort of perverse thing on there and hey where's his dick when really, we've had the answer to that. We've had all the clues. Griffin, let me ask you. Mr. Police, you gave me all the clues, R.E., Winnie the Pooh's dick. I have a quick follow-up question for you, though, Griffin, because I do accept your premise. Winnie the Pooh is pantsless all the time. So it's not unusual that he's pantsless in this super muscular picture.

But I guess my question for you is, where's Winnie the Pooh's dick? He should have a bear's dick there. So if you'll notice, there's other parts of his sort of like physiology that is also not like a real bear's. Yeah, he's a poo. He has no teeth.

Yeah. I think that's, he wears a shirt shirt that's sort of my big clues he's a stuffed bear and i think that that is why when he is a little rounder we're fine with that he's a stuffed bear now what griffin has here appears to be a six foot seven adonis of a bear and that's not a stuffed bear at all. That is, that's a full grown man bear. Right. And I think that that now, not the fingers though.

No, I'm looking at the fingers. He has a delicate pianist. That's true. I put it away so we could focus on the content. Thank you. Now we can start recording. Guys,

let's take a quick break. We'll be back in just a second. Hey, Jesse, are you looking for one of the poo's dick? I am, yeah. Check Eeyore's mouth. Wow. Those dudes love to fuck. We'll be back in just a second.

The 69-acre wood, am I right? Yeah. I don't follow. What do you mean? The 12 inch wood? Which one's better? We'll be back in just a second on Jordan, Jesse go. It's Jordan, Jesse go.

MaxFun audience around MaxFunDriveTime. We've involved some of our favorite people. Some of your favorite people are going to be joining us on this, let's call it an odyssey. Are you okay calling it an odyssey?

Jordan, when I have visitors at my home, which I often had, I had a lot, I've had a lot of in-laws at my house lately. I like to make a nice little meal for everyone. I'm not a world-class chef. I'm not serving any foams, but I do like to have a nice, a main and a couple of sides. It's beautiful. It shows that you care. I love to show that you care. I love to

show that I care. And sometimes I'm like, I realize that I have come up with a really nice main and a really nice veg or something, but it needs a little something extra. And then I remember, oh, I have wild green in the freezer. I can just throw it in the oven, 20, 25 minutes. I have a beautiful loaf of bread. I have a beautiful chocolate croissants. I have my favorite dish usually is I'll serve fettuccine Alfredo with chocolate croissants on the side. So decadent. I'll make a nice loaf of sourdough bread right out of the freezer.

And it really, it brings the whole thing together. It is a joy to have it in your freezer waiting for you. Yeah. Wild Grain, it's the first ever bake from frozen subscription box for sourdough breads, fresh pastas, and artisanal pastries. And every item bakes from frozen in 25 minutes or less.

Also, this podcast brought to you by BetterHelp. Now, Jordan, we have been working hard to encourage our listeners to get therapy because, look, we're a troubled bunch, but you don't have to be super troubled. Yeah. I mean, to be human is to be a little bit troubled. And I think that's something that's really great about therapy is that it is really helpful

in times of great crisis and change, but it is also helpful just for, you know, the things that are on your mind week to week. I've really, really had a great time seeing my therapist, and she's been very helpful during huge, you know, world ending personal tragedies and just, you know, the stuff that comes up every week. It's great to have somebody, a professional to talk that stuff out with. I feel better. I'm my best self when I'm going to therapy. And I think that if it's something you've been thinking about trying, you definitely should. There's a lot of ways to get therapy. You can ask your doctor for a rec, you can go to a community clinic, or you can try BetterHelp.

BetterHelp is online therapy. It's easy and quick to access. You don't have to go through a bunch of baloney. It's easy to switch your therapist. If you aren't nuts about your therapist, it's easier to see your therapist a million different ways.

That's betterhelp.com slash JJGo. Let's get back to the show. It's Jordan, Jesse go. I'm Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart, Jordan Morris, boy detective griffin mccroy poofan 69 travis mccroy blood and honey justin mccroy big stroganoff there was stroganoff on the screen earlier screen earlier it's a fun callback it's a nice mushroom sauce you know i think it would be nice guys if we went over our earliest internet memories, wouldn't that be... Travis. I was just thinking that that would be a really fun segment. That's a great idea, you know, and it's perfect because we've been doing a segment on the show.

Really? Where people email us, jordanjessigo at AOL.com, a real email address you can actually email. They've been sharing with us their early internet memories. Really? email address you can actually email they've been sharing with us their early internet memories so if you guys all wanted to go around and share some of your early internet memories it would be perfect for this segment so this is interesting because we all grew up in a house together surprises everyone we're real brothers and so i might need you guys to fill in the gaps of this but i remember our uncle mark who was much more tech savvy than our dad and i assume continues to be based on our dad's level of computer competence

but uncle mark helped us set up some early internet and we were able to access role play chat rooms that were like uh for example like a roadside fantasy tavern and like an old west saloon and they were that like full-blown like 8-bit graphics and you would type you're thinking of bbs's like a bbs like that you dial into right with like ascii art and yeah yeah yeah and i remember there being one that was like a fantasy tavern and everybody like role playing that they were fantasy characters in a fantasy land. And I thought this Internet thing really has it going on. Now, Travis, obviously, the three of you have become number one New York Times bestsellers with the series of graphic novels based on your role plays. Yes.

The hit podcast, The Adventure Zone. based on your role plays on the hit podcast, The Adventure Zone. But I'm wondering, Travis, were these internet role plays sexual in nature? Well, I think I would have been about eight at the time, Jesse. So not, let me say this, Jesse, not from my side of it. Right. But I'll leave it there, Jesse, because I can't speak to the intention of everyone else on the internet at the time. I can't say how chaste their intentions were.

Statistically speaking, I was just happy to hang out with centaurs and whatnot. Some of them were there to list Star Wars characters, certainly. Yes. But some had a more prurient interest, so to speak. I would know about that. I continue to not know about the Internet. You've just introduced the idea that the internet could be sexual in nature to me, and I don't know what to think of it, frankly.

Seems weird. Justin, you're the oldest of the three of you, so you probably have the clearest memories of this time. Mm. What was going on on the McElroy home computer? Was this a computer in the den, by the way? It was in the dining room. Dining room, yeah.

Actually, yeah. So our dining room had a computer in the den by the way uh it was in the dining room dining room actually yeah so our dining room had like a computer in the corner a computer's got to eat baby yeah let the computer eat we had a period where we would we were all playing everquest in the early internet days and we would like just stand just stand behind like a looming specter, just stand behind the other one, counting them out until we got our turn to travel to Kunark or Lukeland or whatever fantastic, fantastic world awaited us. I also, this is good. I love to watch YouTube videos of families having fun at Kunarka Lukewind. Kunarka Lukewind. EverQuest is the one. remember everquest was in the news because baseball celebrity turned horrible and saint later turned it horrible as far as i know later

maybe later revealed to be yeah kurt schilling who early in his career i remember he and another baseball player would play everquest together the guy was on a different team. They would team up to go on adventures in EverQuest together. And this was big news in the world of baseball. They gave us a lot of hope that was later dashed for baseball star Curt Schilling. Well, then he bled too much in his sock and he got sock sepsis and it made him a real piece of shit. Travis gets it. Yeah. He should have been wearing sanitaries but he's just wearing regular socks didn't have his sannies on the first album i pirated once that technology became available was ever clear so much for the afterglow yeah a lot of hits on that album a lot of hits well yeah father of mine i will buy you a life. You're getting ahead of me a little bit because I downloaded this and it was the first time that it had successfully made it

through the 15 megabytes that albums were then and it took about an hour and a half and I burned it onto a CD right away and that shit never left my CD player even though pretty much every MP3 file on it was corrupted to a degree where the songs would just kind of skip in between each other indiscriminately. I remember one track was like 14 and a half minutes long and you would get like a minute of Father of Mine. You'd get like

two minutes of So Much for the Afterglow you'd get like a minute from i will buy you a new life it was like a dj who wasn't very good at his job was just chopping up this one album by everclear and it was the optimal way to listen to it so in your mind middle of the road rock band everclear was like as arty as radiohead are you like oh these guys are really fucking challenging and you're like oh no never mind this is just a bad mp3 plunder phonics the uh it syncs up with Wizard of Oz if you start them at the same time the first between scenes constantly the first kid in our neighborhood like in our school who got a 56k bOD modem, which is like the fast, that was like the good stuff back then. He had a little side business where he would download individual pornography images for kids and then print them out and then bring them to school and sell them for a dollar.

That's a deal. That's a bargain. This is the original Mr. Skid. You come to this kid and you're like, I like Alyssa Milano. He's like, no problem. I'll see you tomorrow. I'll see you tomorrow.

Bring 50 cents for the printout. We'll get it going for you. No problem. How much for Halle Berry and Swordfish? Listen, I only got fake Halle Berries right now. Hey, that one's on me. That's how Elon Musk got his startup money. Tasteful black and white images.

My mom won't buy a more color ink. We ask our listeners to send in their earliest internet memories to our email address that is real, jordanjessegoeataol.com, and we will read them anonymously. Here is one of them. In the early 90ss i volunteered at the middle school library during study hall first of all extremely cool move yeah a lot of people out there who are listening to this are probably a bunch of fucking squares who didn't think to do this in middle school but those of us who are fucking cool sex heads who love to read National Geographic early. Yeah. And hide from bullies who would

never think to go in the library. No way. They're too busy at the soda shop. At the library, they were just transitioning to computerized book checkout. And I learned how to work the black and green Apple IIe for library stuff, mostly checking out encyclopedia brown books and shit. But as I fucked around, I like that this one has a little bit of a sailor language and it's a little salty. It's conversational. This is how real people talk. This is real America. Did Diablo Cody write this?

But as I fucked around with the computer, I realized it was possible to create new students at the school, not just at the library. None of these functions were password protected. It was all open. So like any sixth grader, I would create several new students with creative names like IP Freely and Seymour Butts, assign them to homerooms, and then add some grades and test scores. What was a fun hidden prank got real, though, when automated notices were sent to those homerooms for these fictional students. The computer fraud was then traced back to me, and I was permanently banned from using

library computers. You gotta cover that. You gotta, because up until then it was gotta cover your tracks man perfect crime you were the swordfish now one time when i was at a library school library middle school i was trying to print out a section from the pokemon gold and silver walk through on gamefax.com and i didn't click the right prompt when i went to print it out and so i printed out the whole thing and it was like 208 pages of the paper that's like all attached uh all one big sheet oh yeah the kind with the with the sprocket an entire ream of paper you dedicated to Pokemon. And HPs.

The administrator for the library was like, who did this? And I just never said anything, which is a pretty good way to get away with crime. Well, Griffin, that's how we know you were elite Haxor. Yeah. That's right. He shouldn't have asked anyway. That's entrapment. You should know better than that.

I have a similar story, but with Ultimate mortal combat 3 fatalities and babalities great justin thank you for telling this is so important i have to griffin please go ahead we got you fucker i fucking knew it leading up to this the whole podcast this is dat is Dateline NBC for printing things out at the library. To catch a printitor. Wow, that's really good, Travis. That's really good. That's really good. Fucking Travis has had two grand slams this episode.

Fantastic, man. That's all you can hope for, man. Is that a sports thing? With bare arms and to catch a printitor? You know what? How about this, Jordan? How about for the next segment, we kick Griffin and Justin out of here and we just finish it up with Travis.

And we act like that was the purpose was an off the cuff thing. Cause Travis did so well. And Justin and Griffin are bad. And not just that Justin and Griffin have shit that they have to do with their families right now that we knew was going to happen. Yes. Wait, wait,

wait guys. I don't want to go. Go away, Justin. No, wait, guys. We'll be back in just a second on Jordan, Jesse. Go. La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. If you have trouble falling asleep, try sleeping with celebrities.

Tell me about your view of succulents. I'm not a huge fan. It's a different kind of sleep podcast. There are some real benefits to parking illegally. Featuring remarkable guests and unremarkable topics. There's two Orlando airports. From the creator of Depress Mode with John Moe. It's sleeping with celebrities.

Every week on Maximum Fun. Nighty Night Sleepyheads. La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Hi, I'm Jesse Thorne, the founder of Maximum Fun, and I have a special announcement. I'm no longer embarrassed by my brother, my brother, and me. You know, for years, each new episode of this supposed advice show was a fresh insult, a depraved jumble of erection jokes, ghost humor, and frankly, this is for the best, very little actionable advice. But now as they enter their twilight years, I'm as surprised as anyone to

admit that it's gotten kind of good. Justin, Travis, and Griffin's witticisms are more refined, like a humor column in a fancy magazine. And they hardly ever say bazinga anymore. So after you've completely finished listening to every single one of all of our other shows, why not join the McElroy Brothers every week for My Brother, My Brother and Me? It's Jordan, Jesse Doe. I'm Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart. Jordan Morris, boy detective. Travis McElroy, the printer. Travis, do you get like a certificate when you become a number

one New York Times best-selling author or a little hat or something if you're lucky your dad will buy enough copies of it to get like that framed which I have and I really love because I have one because I don't want to brag but I do it was It was multiple times. So one of them, the cover story of the New York Times that week was basically Japan says we don't need men anymore. And then that's on one side. And then the other side is like the top 10 list that David Letterman wrote about our book. I assume he's doing that. When you said that if you're lucky, your dad buys enough copies, I thought that you were admitting to the fact that your father, Clint, had just bought so many copies of your books that it had driven your books to the New York Times bestseller list. I haven't investigated that claim, so I can neither confirm nor deny that, Jesse.

Okay. That's fair. That's fair. That's fair. That's fair. I worked for a minute for a publishing company that had been founded by a very rich man who had written a book, had not had it accepted for publication and did not want to self-publish it. So he just created a publishing company to publish it. And then he heard that Dan Brown gave out a lot of copies of the Da Vinci Code. So he just printed like 25,000 copies of his book and hired me and Casper Hauser to think of creative ways to give it away.

And I will still see his book in the thrift store, like to this day, right there alongside the Adventure Zone books. So congratulations on your extraordinary success, Trav. Well, once you read a book once, you don't need it anymore. Like, you already know what happens in it. Like, why would anyone...

Hey, there's a new Adventure Zone book out. What? Yeah, I know. These things are great. They're graphic novel adaptations of the podcast adventures. I think if you love the podcast, you're going to love these books. I think if you're not up on the podcast, you will still love these books. They're not like inside jokes.

They're standalone. Anybody can read them. If you like funny fantasy adventures with a little bit of saucy language and a lot of jokes and some feels, you're going to love The Adventure Zone. I know I do. Jordan, can I offer our listeners an opportunity here? Yeah. I like to go into the comic book store from time to time. And when I go into the comic book store, almost invariably, one of the Adventure Zone comics is right there on display because these

are top sellers. Beautiful too. Beautiful art by the great Carrie Peach. And they look great on a shelf. Beautiful art by the great Carrie Peach, and they look great on a shelf. And I'll see it there. I'll maybe be there with one of my kids. And I'll try and say loud enough so that the person in the counter can hear, hey, look, there's that book by my friends, the McElroys. It works great. I usually end up buying a few copies just to make sure that the connection has been firmed up in the clerk's head that I know the bestselling graphic novel authors, the McElroy brothers and Clint McElroy. And it has really raised my prestige in the comic book store averse to the point where when I come in, people say, oh, there's that annoying guy who's always talking about how he knows the mackleroy's yeah and i'm gonna say look if you

listen to jordan jesse go that basically makes you friends with the mackleroy's because travis has been on the show seven times eight now this is the way This is number eight. Wow. Okay. That's too many. Yeah, that's fair. Daniel, delete this episode. Daniel, go, yeah, delete, delete three, seven, and two. But my suggestion to you is go into a comic book store where you want to impress the people that work there. Say loudly, oh, there's that new comic by my friends the mackleroy brothers and then buy five or six of them to reinforce it all of a sudden you're golden with everybody that works at that store they're going to roll out the red carpet every time you come in to buy four now i will say this jesse

every time i've ever gone into a comic book store ever and bought anything ever they're excited so i think just like walking into the door and being a physical customer in a local comic book shop will make them very excited. This is something we addressed recently on the program, the cultural transformation that has taken place in comic book stores, which once were disappointed to see you cross the threshold.

Now so excited. Made them visibly upset. They're like, oh, you're buying archie comics we fucking love it man yeah whatever you need anything come on anything you want yes please in fact there's a new archie comic you can go in and put on top of the stack of your adventure zone comics this sounds like a field trip to me jordan yeah get yourself uh listen the dates won't quite line up but if you're, for some reason, you're waiting until March 22nd

to go pick up your copy of your Adventure Zone at your local comic book store, you can also pick up a copy of Pop's Chocolate Shop of Horrors from Archie Horror, an anthology comic that I have a story in. Hell yeah, dude, you made it. Yeah, that's right, I did. I know Jughead.

Can I give a quick warning though for for our listeners who might be thinking about buying this archie horror comic yeah just know that it's a little bit twisted a little twisted it's uh not for the kiddos maybe you want to pick up a copy of betty and veronica double digest to give to them that's a little more kid friendly, but, uh, wait, wait,

hold on. Tell me more about this. That's something I can find on the internet. Oh yeah. And I role play that real quick. Yeah. One has blonde hair. One has dark hair and they're both crazy about a certain redhead from Riverdale.

Okay. That's over my, now I'm lost. Yeah. It's too much. It's a little complicated for me. I know this is kind of a, it's kind of, now I'm lost. Yeah, it's a little complicated. Too much plot for me! I know, this is kind of like the leftovers in that way.

It's like, well, it's just another universe. What's going on here? It's hard to follow. But yeah, Pop's Chocolate Shop of Horrors. It's an Archie horror adventure. And, you know, I think you'll love it if you don't mind some blood, some guts, and some twisted turns.

And some honey, yes. I'll say this too. Look, if you like story and heart with your laughs, you should listen to The Adventure Zone right here at MaximumFun.org. But given that you're listening to this show, that seems unlikely. So if you just want pure uncut bullshit, My Brother, My Brother and Me is about as good as it gets. That's the tagline.

A bunch of just a big pile of garbage. Just go for it. That's why you listen to this show. That's why you should listen to my brother, my brother and me. One of the funniest fucking shows out there. Just love it every time. Love that we get to work with these guys. They're really brilliant, talented wonders and real decent fellas. Hey, thanks. So go get that my bim bam for yourself. Go get a Schmanners with Travis McElroy. How about that?
