The McElroy brothers are not experts, and their advice should never be followed.
Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it.
Also, this show isn't for kids, which I mentioned only so the babies out there
will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby?
Hello, everybody, and welcome to my brother, my brother, and me, an advice show for the
modern era. I'm your baby brother, Griffin McElroy. I'm your middlest brother, Travis McElroy.
And joining us today, this is very, this is very exciting, very special guests.
Uh, beloved J-pop hologram pop star, Hatsune Miku.
I'm Hatsune Miku. Hatsune Miku, thank you for being here. Um, I feel like your holographic
nature is maybe lost based on the nature of our visual medium, but can you in fact confirm for
us that you are a projected light specter? I am, I am being projected onto the wall.
What in the whole shit? It's me, Hatsune Miku, fresh from my performance
on the David Letterman program. So happy to be here. Is this your speed? Okay, I've only heard
your Vocaloid singing performance. Is this just your speaking voice? Can you confirm that for me
hologram now? Uh, yes, this is, uh, this is how I talk. And this is how I sing. Griffin, can I,
can I talk with you over here for a little bit? Yes. Go ahead about your business. Hatsune, you
sit down. I made you some oolong that you just absolutely can't enjoy because you're all light.
I'm going to have a sidebar with my brother here. What's up, Trevor? Uh, Griffin, what the fuck is
going on? Oh, Hatsune Miku. I miss, I miss one pre-production meeting. Uh, you miss one very
important momentous episode of the David Letterman late night television program. And you're just,
you don't have any cultural touchstones anymore. Hatsune, I am so sorry to bother you. I don't
know how you're drinking that, but I also don't know how- I'm just making a puddle. It's just a
puddle on the floor. Okay. Where's Justin? I am using him as my corporeal projector. Oh, shit. I'm
a hologram based on a Vocaloid. It's real confusing for you, Guy Gens, but- Not for me. I just want
to say up front that I, I'm a big, big, big fan. Yeah, but uh, I have to have a human to project
my spectral pop star form. So I basically just rigged him up as a projector. And then after you
leave your frame, that person dies in 15 minutes. He will be dead in 15 minutes.
I like the power. It's real sad. Can you, are you, I don't, man, it's really hard to frame this
question without being rude. Are you sick? What? I'm just- Yeah, well, I got the clap. No, I meant,
oh, Jesus. I meant like, do you have a perhaps a laryngitic illness? I am a computer program,
so you have a virus. You're next. You're my, I just picked my next one. Oh, shit, great. Good one.
Going for you. See that movie, Annabelle? I'm like that. It's not like that. It's a hologram.
Sure. Uh, quick, quick question. How was it? Um, because obviously just sort of looking at
David Letterman's flop sweats the entire time that you were doing your shits up there,
he did not seem especially, especially comfortable with the arrangement. I think,
I think the only thing he said afterwards was there she is, uh, which is arguably the most
uncomfortable thing that- I gotta say, I mean, he analyses retirement. I think upon seeing me,
there was a very clear moment where he realized I've stayed too long. Yeah. I am at that point
where I'm introducing a hologram. I've stayed, I've stayed too long. He walked out of the studio
and immediately threw himself into a tar pit, just like, I'm ready now. I'm ready now. I'm done.
Was it uncomfortable for you? Uh, I mean, I'm, I'm literally just a computer program.
Yeah. Nothing is uncomfortable for me. So no, I had a, a fine time. They had some great, uh,
treats in the green room. Like, like exes, like- Yeah, they were exes that I just know me. Delicious
executables? Okay. Delicious executables. What the fuck is going on? I just wish that you paid
closer attention to pop culture. I pay attention to life, Griffin. Yeah, I guess so. Um, well,
I'm going to release this guy. Okay. I got a show in Cleveland. I got to start,
I got to plug in and get juice up for. Oh man, that was good soup. How are you eating soup?
I'm just puddling it. It makes me gassy. Uh, thank you for being on the show. Thank you for
inhabiting and then killing Paul Schaefer. Uh, it was a real joy to have you. Yeah, but yeah,
my pleasure. Where's my ride? Oh, it's, uh, it's right here. I have a torrent waiting for you.
Justin, you all right? Yeah, I'm fine. I thought I would die. Yeah. Uh, but I didn't. So that's good.
Uh, it is good. Um, you missed probably our best bit ever though. So that's, that's certainly the
one that has engaged Travis the most. I think we can all agree on that. Yeah,
Trev, you should have said when we were, when we were pitching this, when we were like,
we're going to make all kinds of really great Hatsune Miku jokes. Normally, normally what one
does in like the comedy structure is take on the role of the, the know nothing who
has to be educated about the thing. Uh, maybe you've seen a who's on first, where one guy
knows about the thing and the other guy asks questions about thing and it's confused about
thing. Travis has decided to take a different approach where he just pumps of opens up the
silence fire hose and pumps it right into his mic. Well, I, I didn't realize I was supposed
to be the know nothing. I just thought I was the say nothing. That's why I went with that.
Sure. You, you represent the flyover states regarding Hatsune Miku. I also was checking
Twitter. So God damn it. When people give birthday Christmas Valentine cards and such,
when is it okay to throw them away? We all know the cards will get thrown away. Eventually,
should we throw them away in front of the giver after searching it for cash or perhaps just
cross the name out and re-gift it as an eco-friendly gesture. That's from hoarding Hallmark.
Is this, I was thinking about this the other day because we moved and we brought a bunch of
cards with us. Some from. Why? Well, some were like from our wedding and some like,
I found a couple of birthday cards from like grandparents and shit. And my question was,
it seems like a thing like, I remember growing up, we had that like box of Christmas cards that
like came out every year and just got added to and added to. Did people like used to save these
things forever? Like end up with boxes and boxes of hallmarks? Yeah, I think so. I think what it
was used as like the way you kept in touch with people, it was a lot more important to save them.
I have a pretty strict rule now where I will hold on to it for one week for every word that has been
written on the card. So if it's very like, it's a very sweet card that someone is taking the time
to write a very personalized message and I'll save it for longer. If it's just like B-Day,
crushed it, love Naughty, then I don't feel the need to keep that for more than a month or so.
I think if you got a card from our Naughty that said B-Day, crushed it, you would fucking take
that to the grave. Yeah, that's probably true. That has to be buried with it like a pharaoh.
It would be my payment to sticks. Oh yeah, this is a great. Naughty wrote this?
You know, Theresa and I debated this a little on, but I think that any kind of greeting card,
anything like that is such a fucking waste. Waste of money, waste of resources, waste of time.
Especially when you're giving another present and a card, it seems so redundant and like
they know it's from you because your name's on the tag. They know it's their birthday and you're
wishing them a happy birthday because you're already giving them a present. Why do I also
have to get someone a card? I really think that we are going to, I think a lot of people feel
that way, Travis, and I feel like we're going to have one moment like in Pleasantville where one
person realizes, hey, I hate this. I hate getting these and I hate buying these and it's just going
to explode virally. Like all of a sudden, everyone will say, oh, thank God, me too. I thought you
liked it. Even the process is terrible. Like you go and you're looking at cards and you're trying
to think like, okay, what in like two pages is going to sum up my relationship with this person,
what I think about them and what I think about myself? It's such like a weirdly like introspective
kind of thing of like, what does this card say about me when I give it to this person?
But there are so many ways that cards can intensify the pleasure of a present. They're
present, Lube. There is but one way and that is ironically. No, it doesn't have to be. You can't
look at life through the veil of irony or else you're going to miss so many great things like,
like fucking Jimmy Buffett. Jimmy Buffett, you motherfucker. I've tried so hard to not tweet your
shit on Spotify. It's all he listens to anymore, but you open up a card and you're like, oh,
fuck it. Another time for another card. It's just another, you know, short poem about what a special
grandson I am. And then you open it up and what is it? Oh no, it's the far side. And then you get
a great old Gary Larson nugget of comedy in there before you open your present. It's an
aperitif. It's an amuse-bouche that cleanses the palette and then you open it up. What's in there?
It's a bop it. The great kind of bop. It was like five different commands on it. And that's,
it's better because of the far side. For my money, there has only ever been one good card.
I've given it to probably a dozen people. I buy stacks of it whenever I can find it. And you
can't find it anymore, but it's a picture of a dad and two daughters. And the dad and one of the
daughters have signs that say, happy birthday. And the second daughter has a sign that says,
I like corn on the cob. And on the inside, it says, please disregard Stephanie.
That's, see, that's good shit. It's the best card. It's the best card.
That's Primo. And you know what? That puts you in a mood, doesn't it? I get that card and I'm
in a mood. And now I'm ready to receive. And then I get the gift. Ah, fuck yeah.
It's a gift fluffer. That's what I'm saying. I think that like, you've got to hold on to cards
because I think there are fewer, more pure and blissful forms of comedy on this planet than
recycling cards that you got for someone like say an ex-girlfriend's parents for your birthday.
And then you recycle that. And then all of a sudden you're wishing your brother happy anniversary.
That's amazing stuff. That's really, really good stuff. Yeah. Our dad taught us that gag. And I
think I still, it is always actually my instinct to buy the card that would be the least appropriate
for the occasion as to sort of like a built-in punchline. Yeah. And it's like a, what?
It's like a fun like mystery that you have to unravel of like what was the original context
of this card. Justin, you got an anniversary card from me by way of Doval, my ex-girlfriend's dad.
And then you had to remember who that was and why I would, why I would ever know a person
named Doval. And now you're in there like, now you've cracked it. Good work. Thanks. I feel like
I solved it. But do we keep them? That's the thing. Yes, for that express purpose. If there,
if there are grand slam and you have a lot of good memories, you keep them. But I think if you're not
attached to it in any way, it was clearly a formality from the person. Like you trash it.
Yeah. I think that like a healthy buffer of like two weeks, because here's what you do. You get
the card, you put it on your mantle, it sits there for like a week, two weeks. I don't even do that.
That's crazy. I think you only have to do that if it was a card only occasion. If they give you a
card and a gift, you can trash the card as soon as the party's over. Because you have the gift to
display to say like, I care about the thing you gave me. But like, if all they gave you was like
a card expressing like how proud of you they are and like a check, you can't display the check.
I just, I wish there was some sort of resale environment for greeting cards. I think there's
a secondhand market that exists out there, especially now that I've established that it's
the fucking funniest thing ever. Like a traditional cards just don't cut it. I wish I could get a
pre-used card. That's what I'm saying. A lightly used or fuck it. I want a never-ending tone of
greeting cards. A card that is like has been reused 50 times over and it's been somebody's
birthday card, somebody's Bob Mitzvah card and somebody's briskard. So let me throw this out.
Like, oh, sorry. So how about this? No, you said it and it's in the episode forever now.
They know what? I want to lean into it. Let me throw this out.
Let me, that's your fucking, that's your fucking DJ cool. Let me clear my throat.
Go to the library, check out a birthday card. You open the front, you see where all the dates
are stamped, right? And the names are signed. You check out the birthday card for someone's
birthday and make sure you say, I am going to need that back. I've got to return it in two weeks.
It's, it's 45 cents a day that it goes past. So I need you to get this back. But happy birthday.
I mean it. I love you. You're my most special grandpa. But fucking, if you don't get this back
to the library, I'm coming for your ass. I think the, I think the recipient has to return it.
Oh, I think that's the only thing that can make you a better. And here's another one for you.
Yeah. Um, I got you a chore. My friend started a comic book store in our small town a little
over a year ago. He plans to go out of business soon. Nobody plans to go out of business. Nobody
plans to go out of business. He expects to go out of business soon. Let's see. February's looking
pretty good for everything I own to come. What's the etiquette for the death of a French dream?
Do I send him a card? Yes. It makes any difference. He is not into hugs and that's from morning,
Miss Marvel in Logan. Seems like some sort of Wolverine tie-in could have been appropriate
there, but I'm no expert. And I'm sorry about Miss Marvel. I'm sorry about your friend's dream.
But, and I guys, I hate to be this way after receiving this bad news, but this is what happens
when you don't get money zone spots. Right. We could have blown that. We could have fucking
helped out. God, wait a minute. You should be careful. Maybe we did. I don't remember all of them.
This, this strikes me as like one of those moments in like a movie or a TV show where
what happens is unlike the night before it gets turned over to the bank or whatever,
you just go in with like a six pack of beers and you and your friends have montage
remembrances of all the good times you had in the comic book store. Or fucking UHF,
fucking pledge drive last minute, last year. You got to be careful. Oh my God, you got to be so
careful that you do a UHF and not to be kind of rewind. Oh boy, howdy. That's, that's very,
that's very key. Hey, be kind, rewind. Thanks for being an adorable and funny movie that ends
with like the crushing acceptance that bad things often happen and cannot be changed.
Jeez, spoilers. Yeah, really? Let's go back to UHF. See, they buy stocks in UHF, you see,
shares. And then at the end, they're not going to make it. And there's a homeless gentleman
who had been given a nickel, a special nickel that he sold for a bunch of money. And he comes
in and saves the day at the end. Thank you for giving a rundown of you. Hey, I still bought
himself this neat watch. That was really good. Thank you. Now this will only work if there's a
big corporate comic book store in town that has been putting him out of business. Globo comic,
we'll call them. I hate to hear this first off, like this is, this is very sad. What I would
try to urge you to have your friend focus on is that while the comic book store may not have
thrived, the dream was fulfilled. I mean, so many people walk around thinking, you know,
I'd love to do this. I'd love to have a comic book store. I'd love to have, you know, a bar
that I own. I'd love to have a hit comedy podcast with my two brothers. People have these dreams
and they just carry them around and never live them out. Your friend did it. I mean, they started
a comic book store. They owned it. They worked there. It was their baby. I mean, they did it,
you know, just because it ends doesn't mean that they didn't, you know, get to live their dream.
And that's a lot further than a lot of people get. Let me ask you guys this. How does it change
this situation and how this person should react to it? If it's because it's one of two things,
either the comic book store is closing because, you know, the economy or maybe it's in a bad
location or because everyone's going digital and no one's like buying comics anymore or be
who the friend running this store just ran it into the ground.
It's free comic. It's free comic Wednesday, by which I mean everything's free. Come and get it.
You know what I mean? Like, hey, stand later on the store on the weekends.
How do you react different? You know what I mean? Like, because if it's the economy,
I feel like that's so much easier because like, then you have that like grumbling like, oh man,
it was the deck was stacked against you. Oh, maybe, maybe in 10 years. But right now,
but then when you know your friend like, oh, you were doing that, like buy one, get six free deal
to try to get people in the door and you you ruined it. Like, how do you comfort that friend?
I think you have to blame the economy no matter what. Never admit this friend's failure. The time
for that conversation was roughly six months ago. The time for that conversation was when he decided
to let the giant hungry goat sleep in his comic book store overnight. That was before that happened
was the ideal time to say, hey, maybe you should have a strict no goat policy for this establishment.
A lot of edibles. I hate to hear this. I hate to hear it too. You know, I mean,
is it too late to save it by doing what my local comic book store did? Well, not did. It just sort
of had this in its DNA from the beginning in that they sell comics, but they also sell board games
and fucking magic cards and D&D minis and they rent out table space where people play D&D. I feel
like a lot of comic book stores got that direction where it's just like a honeypot for like seven kinds
of nerds. It's like a full hobby shop. Right. And you get them in there like, I don't know. I just
kind of want to play some Pokemon cards. They're like, cool, cool, cool. Have you read the new
Hawkeye? What's a Hawkeye? What's reading? And they say, I've got a lot of things for you.
And the guy who's a hawk. There's a guy who's a hawk. He's a pretty cool guy.
That no joke. That's actually why I started reading comics.
Because you were just there playing Pokemon?
I was there. Well, I wasn't playing Pokemon. I was filling in the gaps of my collection.
For you, it's more art. It's the art of the dance.
I appreciate seeing how the artist of the card has realized Electabuzz in his
native environment. The Electabuzz card is beautiful. It's on acrylic. Do you guys want to
please anything? This Yahoo was sent in by Level 44,000.
Yahoo, Shaman, Drew Davenport. Thank you, Drew Davenport. It's by Yahoo,
Drew Answers user Jim, who asks, how to package hummus for trick-or-treaters?
I'm handing out homemade hummus this Halloween and want to ensure it stays fresh and doesn't spill
in the bags of trick-or-treaters. What is the best small and expensive container I can use?
Garbage can. Just hand each of them free thrown away.
I know what you're doing with this when you get home. The thing that I imagined was like,
do you guys use those dishwasher packs of detergent? I imagine that just like filled with hummus,
but I want it to be like super pressurized. So like when you puncture it at all, it's just like
an ocean just starts spraying out. So I'm a 30-year-old man. I have not
trick-or-treated it many years. But I wonder if parents have become more or less like,
we have to check your candy and go through your stuff before you can eat any of it.
Or if now it's just like, I don't care. In the dawning of the age of Etsy,
fucking everyone's got to be crazy about homemade goods. What'd you get? Well,
I got two bit of honeys. I got one fun size Snickers and like 8,000 cake pops.
Yeah. And so like our parents are like, well, you can have those three things. And I guess I
got to garbage the rest of this. No. No, I think parents are down. I don't think nobody puts
fucking razor blades in payouts. That candy stuff like is the most, like,
there is, it's such a like bad and good side of humanity. It's like there's one night where
kids can just go door to door and their neighbors in like the spirit of community
open their doors and give the kids free candy. There has to be one person who's like,
but what if one sticker wants to poison it and they want to poison a bunch of kids?
Like, listen, it's not hard to poison kids. If you're looking for an opportunity to do that,
they kids will eat anything. Okay. You don't have to make a big show of it. Like you could be,
I imagined if I was like, I'm so horny to poison kids, I would probably get a job as
someone who works in a cafeteria. Like that would be the gig for that person. They wouldn't like
set a set a trap and wait and like hand poison everything. I think they just dump something
into oatmeal and say, best of luck. You know, I'm really going to make an evening out of killing
these kids. Yeah. Like don't make a big production out of it. Somebody who answers user starfish
LTD said, Ziploc baggies, but as you've been told, homemade treats get thrown out. If you put your
name and address on an accompanying card, they may keep it. Oh, this is, oh, this is Bryce Hummus.
This is Bryce Hummus at, at 2101 Oak Shire. Oh man, you got it. But yeah, no, this one is
some artisanal hummus. This is artisanal hummus. You're a fucking little kid. You wouldn't appreciate
the work that went into these chickpeas. Wait, that's an even bigger question. What little kid is
like? Oh, I got a fun size snicker. I got some, oh, hummus. Oh, a gross bag of hummus.
Yes. Hummus in my bag. Yes. Cut up those green peppers, mom.
We're having a night. Have some friends over. I've got Nosh covered. Do you remember when we
used to play poker with our Halloween candy? Can you, what is, what is the fucking exchange rate
of a fucking dime bag of hummus? The hummus works to lower the price. Like all I've got is this full
size snicker. Okay, wait. And hummus. So then it's like half of a candy bar. You can always tell
when Teddy KGB goes for a second dip into the hummus that he's ploughing. Do not splash the hummus.
This is my, slash the hummus whenever I want. Ah, fuck me. Use a manny's chickpeas.
As, as an adult kid, just give him a fucking milky way. What's the matter with you? Like,
it's what Halloween is for. Kids look, it's almost like, I remember there was a person on
our block that just would like reach into a bowl of change and just like dump like six pennies and
a nickel into your bank. And it was, it was as though his hand was saying, and fuck you. Uh-huh.
And here's 11 cents. Like, okay, great. I'll just throw this away later. How, how sad. I'm sorry.
It's like, all I can think about is, is that, that Halloween episode of Freaks and Geeks? How
sad is that episode of Freaks and Geeks where the mom makes all the cookies and like none of the
parents will take the cookies and then Linda Cardinale throws eggs at her brother? Fuck. Freaks
and Geeks. You brought me down and I haven't watched you in months. I've never even seen a show
in Halloween. Pete and Pete. Yeah. That's a good one. Did you just never seen fucking Freaks and
Geeks? Yeah. I'm sorry. Um, this has been our Halloween recap episode of my brother and my
brother and me where we go through some of the classic Halloween eps. Um, I have a kid. I want
to tell you guys this, this is not a question or anything. I'm just sort of like going off
script. I have a kid now and she wakes up. What? Early. I know. Did you guys know that at 7
15 a.m. every morning, uh, Cartoon Network shows, check it out with Steve Ruhl, but
at 7 o'clock every morning, every morning they show a special called fart copter. Did you know
that? Every, that's their fucking like, here's the thing. Color bars and beat. That's the color
bars is not, and I thought it was a series because it's about a kid selling a helicopter toy that
makes fart noises and it's like the best toy and kids are so violent that it's the only thing that
will distract them from violence is, is fart copter. And I watched it the first time. It was
like, this is amazing that this is a series, but no, it's a 15 minute special called fart copter
that they show every day. It's baffling to me. Is this, it sounds a lot to me like thunder pants.
It sounds a lot to me like thunder pants. The movie. Do you guys know about thunder pants?
I always saw it. I always saw it on the shelves and blockbuster and it's sort of like my,
it's sort of like my, uh, that, that book that Desmond from loss like only wanted to read right
before he died. Thunder pants is like my, my, uh, swan song and it has Rupert Grint in it.
I'm looking at the IMDb. Fuck me. It's got Ned Beatty. It's got Paul Giamatti. It's got Stephen Fry
in it and Rupert Grint from the Harry Potter films. And, um, here's the description. An 11 year
old boy's amazing ability to break wind leaps him first to fame and then to death row before it
helps him fulfill his ambition of becoming an astronaut. Stephen Fry. Cool stuff, man.
Hey, Ned Beatty, how's your whole thing? Is Ned Beatty related to Ned Beatty?
No, Ned Beatty is like, um, he's, he said, IMDb, we have to talk about your descriptions. Ned Beatty,
stocky, genial looking supporting actor who was born and raised in Louisville. Fuck off.
He wrote that himself. Oh, bad actor. Anyway, Fart movies. What were we talking about?
Fart movies. We weren't actually talking about anything. How about another question?
I recently moved to a town that has a reputation for being kind of dangerous.
More often times than not, I find myself on the other end of some aggressive stairs from
rough looking individuals. I'm an Asian male and as such, direct eye contact is in my area of expertise.
Coming out on top of a staring contest, even less so. With that in mind, what are some things I
can do to wig out people who try to stare me down? That's from Glaring Gladiator in Gilroy.
What is, I have to know what Gilroy is. Apparently it's like Badlands.
Yeah. It's in California. Okay. I will say that if, I guess the confusing thing about this question
to me is if your area is known for being kind of dangerous, maybe wigging out people is not a good
idea. I bet, look at this guy over here. I bet it would take one push, one solitary push to get
this nut off his rocker. Let's try it. And watch what happens when I do this. Let's dance.
You won't use that gun, pussy. Guaranteed. Let's dance. I mean, maybe you guys, yeah, I mean,
I might just have Bowie on the brain, but can you dress up like Jareth from the labyrinth
and just walk around all day fucking, swirling a crystal ball of wishes?
There is nothing that would be more intimidating than someone staring you in the eye and you're like,
I could beat this guy. I could take this Jareth looking motherfucker. And then he starts
contact juggling with the magic of fishing. And walking up the side of a wall, you're like,
well, fuck me. Well, okay, well, okay, maybe not. Now I'm wigged out. Now I'm wigged out. Now I've
been wigged. No, I got to go home and rethink some things. I got to think some things. I thought
I was the weirdest guy on this block. Look at this guy crawling up holding a baby.
He just put me in it. He put me in an oubliette. No, I'm in an oubliette. I've never been in an
oubliette. There's a whole new thing for me. I thought I was cool dressing like 1970s Bowie.
I have to move out of this fucking town. It's too dangerous here. I'm in an oubliette.
Yeah. There was this song that he started singing and I sang it with him about a babe and how
I reminded him of it. And the song didn't stop. We couldn't stop singing it because it didn't
have an end. It was horrifying. I walked 15 blocks to the train station. He put me in an oubliette
and then all of a sudden I'm back at my house. I have to start all over again. It sucks. It sucks.
Jareth, you're the worst. Got me walking in circles, buddy. I'm wigged out now. I'm officially
wigged. I'm real wigged. Oh, man. Where's my baby? I swear I had a baby. I had a baby like a minute ago.
Can you listen to this? I got it. I solved the problem. Good news, guys. I solved the problem.
When you get close to the person and you're staring them down, hand them a chick track.
Say, hey, I want to take you through the Romans road. What are you? Do you know what happens to
you when you die? Wait, come back. Come back. Wait, wait, wait, wait. You might not realize this,
but something you're probably doing is witchcraft. You know that Ouija board you're carrying with
you? Did you know that the devil lives inside of it? Oh, you don't have a Ouija? You don't have
a Ouija? Do you play D&D? No, shit. Do you listen to Iggy Azalea? Do you like Kesha? Okay. We found it.
There's our end. We're the devil's end, I guess I should say. That dollar sign in her name stands
for Satan. Speaking of dollar signs. Yeah. Yeah, that's how we found it.
I got two words for you guys. Hungry boy. Okay. Those right there too. Have you checked out
Hungryboy.com? It's exactly what it sounds like. Hungry boy. Good news. Are you a hungry boy?
Uh-oh. Are we getting an on air demonstration of how to eat? I got a solution for this hungry boy.
Whoa, slow down. Step by step this. That's nurturebox.com. Nurturebox? That is what you
said. No, they hate nurturebox. Two of them are always the odds. Nurturebox is just pictures of
moms hugging kids. You don't want that one. You want nature box. They got delicious,
wholesome snacks at naturebox.com delivered to you. Do you know what's better than delicious and
wholesome? What? Free. Whoa. What? I'm picking up what you're laying down. Hey, how am I going
to get some free snacks? I want some free baked sweet potato fries or dark cocoa almonds. Would
you like some free Dutch chocolate sun crunch? That's not, there's no way that's healthy. It is.
Oh, and right now in October, and I don't know how long they'll have this, but pumpkin
nom-nom's, pumpkin spice nom-nom's, they're incredible. They're incredible. We say this
shit every week. I don't understand the fucking physical, chemical, natural makeup of what a
fucking nom-nom is. We say this, we say those words every week and I don't, is it? I've eaten them and
I still don't understand their dark sorcery. So you know how you have like a nom, right? No.
Yeah, you know, nom-nom, like you get a nom off of a nom bush, right? I mean, you just kind of jam
two of them together and you put some pumpkin spice in the middle. Okay. Yeah. It's so good.
It's delicious. These snacks are free. If you go to naturebox.com slash remember that you can get
a free trial. They'll send you a trial box of five of the most popular snacks. If you work for
Naturebox and you're listening to this, maybe send me some of those pumpkin nom-nom's and some
other stuff with no added sugar. I'm trying to get tiny. Help me out. Naturebox.com slash my
brother is where you can get your free trial of delicious snacks. So if you do not do it, you're
a fool. You're a fool. We have people every week who are like, I finally did it on Twitter. We see
them. Do you want to fucking ribbon? You got free delicious food. Great job. Congratulations.
Now that it's free, if 100% of our listeners aren't doing it, I don't know what's going on.
Like we're giving you a gift of a free box of snacks. Just take our gift. Take our damn gift.
You take so much from us already. Don't pick and choose the lifeblood that you drain out of us.
We're giving you food. We're your three-headed giving tree. And now that we're just a stump,
you're going to sit on us. We also have three butts. That's not important to this story.
Why would you need to specify that? I'm just trying to clarify the mental picture.
Giving tree didn't have one butt. Travis. Wait, wait, wait. How do you know that, Griffin?
Because I asked the author. Take a second to think about the fact that the giving tree had a butt.
I have read every piece of giving tree slash fiction that exists. That probably exists,
doesn't it? Mm-hmm. The giving and taking tree. Hachimachi. Hulu. Yep.
Okay, Travis, you did some weird.
Some weird gobby paws to hear, my friend. Oh, man, I am reading some giving tree slash fiction.
It is all stump knots and bumps and dents. It is all sap and ruination. No, no, no, no. Turn it off.
Oh, God.
No.
A slice. It's just a sample. Isn't it better just to know how it's affecting me?
Let Griffin take this hit. No need to ruin it for all of us. No, no. This is, oh, this is illegal.
Griffin is absorbing all of this, like John Coffee from the Green Mile.
Fuck me. So you've tried Hulu. Oh my God, and it ends with, okay, there's, it's extremely explicit,
and it ends, but it ends the way I think the book should end. This is the last sentence,
and this is actually kind of beautiful. The ship before it, decidedly not beautiful.
The boy laid down and wrapped himself around his childhood friend in love of his life.
Ah, with one final sigh of contentment gross and a smile on his face, the boy closed his tired,
old eyes for the last time. He dies on the tree that he just fucked. With a huge boner. And was
fucked by, I think, you giving Shree slash fiction. Did he fuck the tree to death? Did he,
no, this is last. He fucked it in half. Did he, this is last, this is last, last action.
Author's note, author's note, to enhance the reading experience of my tale of love and
reconciliation, I suggest that you listen to Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah ball reading.
Oh, I heard there was a secret tree that you could fuck.
And all your childhood memories are dead.
Because I listened to a podcast, try to sell me snacks.
Oh, no. Well, that was a fun sponsorship partnership that we had for a while. Goodbye,
nature rocks. So Hulu, you all know Hulu, right? It's where you can see images that will wash away
the images that you currently have in your head. But huluplus.com will do even better job
of laundering your mind with a bunch of, they got a bunch of current season episodes of shows
like Modern Family and Daily Show. And you can watch every episode of South Park only on Hulu Plus.
That's amazing. I mean, Teresa and I use it for like boss burgers and when new episodes of
stuff come out and I, we watch it all the time, especially since we moved and we're still getting
everything set up. So it's really pretty awesome. I love Hulu Plus. Me too. I love it. And they mean
a lot to me. It's the only way that I watch a ntm cycle 21 boys still in that house. Still a lot
of boys in that house though. Boys have not been removed from the boys have not been removed. That
man still wears a fucking beard weave. And then this week they did DNA tests and found out like,
oh, you are one 100th of a 15,000th of a percent Eastern European. So that's what I'm going to
make you dress up as. Yes, they had people dress up at your one one bajillionth Native American.
Now put on this headdress and inexplicably pose with a gay bald robot. I'm not making this up.
And Tyro is like, yeah, it's no big deal. In the future, all of our races will merge to become one.
Okay, okay. And also we will all be part artificial intelligence.
Sorry, is there a producer of this show that steps back after every episode airs and goes,
was that not enough? Was it not enough to get the show canceled?
They had this this week they had this is all on who plus, by the way, so you should be watching
it's a fever tree who plus injects you with a fever dream for 48 minutes a week. It's eight
bucks a month. Right now you get a two free two week free trial when you go to whoplus.com slash
my brother in an extra week for free. So go do that. And they have tons of original content too.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the awesome Seth Meyers and Mike Shoemaker made a show called
The Awesomes about misfit superheroes. They got 10 episodes in season one and season two.
Well, it says here it's premiering August 4th. So let's say that it's probably already
up and cooking. And they have shows like East Lowes High and Real Housewives. Sorry,
The Hot Wives of Orlando, which is a parody of the Real Housewives series. Tons of stuff,
go check it out. Okay, back to Griffin. So, okay, so they had this this week they had two gentlemen,
one of them had been sort of making some homophobic comments. And the other gentleman was a gay man
who had been offended by said comment. So they've been sort of beefing. Then Tyra reveals to them
in like, it's supposed to be a gigantic twist that they're both kind of Finnish.
There's so much more that connects us than divides us. For instance, you're both,
you're two hundreds of a trillionth of a percent finish and you are 400 trillionths Swedish. And
those are close together. And they were like, hug it out my brother. There were like three people
of different races and ethnic backgrounds. So like, guys, you're all barely Asian. And one dude was
like, I knew it. Yeah. And also it gave a lot of them instant permission to start using like
really racist accents. Like those guys like, you know, I always thought that I was just Italian
and Native American. And now I'm the Latin Laverre. Yeah, like I actually said, I'm Zoro,
like dog, dial it back. This is cycle 22. We're calling it dial it back. I think we might just
have you guys smile while we take pictures of you for a while. Could you all just model for one
episode? Can you just smile and let me take the fucking picture of you without the spitting into
a cup and having scientists analyze it? What are we doing? Boys are in the house and so is
just like unadulterated lunacy. Fuck. Cycle 21. I have a message for Alexandra Splendor,
and it's from Maria Beben or Beben, who asks who says to Alexandria Splendor.
Ah, man, it says read as Omelie, so I have to pump the brakes and let Justin.
No, no, no, no. Let Griffin read it. No, I just can't. I don't do voices. That's not my thing.
Happy on the first birthday, AJ. You're the friend I always had but never spoke to
until the time the universe decided to send us to Italy. You deserve all the happiness that exists
in this crazy world. Sir, you're the best. I don't know what I do with at dance parties,
endless laughs, and drunken times in Rome. My love, you're the last shot.
Why do people want that? That's so fucking horny.
It does. It's got a message here for Travis Schill's macaroy. Hold on, start this over.
It's a message for Travis Macaroy, and it's from Spencer. Oh, man. And the message is
hide Travis from Spencer. The preferred timeframe for this to Eris Winneves.
That was like $100. Money well-spent, Spencer. That's pretty good. Can I say?
Can I say? Yeah. It was the best greeting card I've ever received. Yeah, see? But we can't reuse
it. It's the unfortunate part. There's no resale market for jumbo trons.
Trav, one more message. One more message. Got a message for the brilliant and delightful
Lindsay Prevot from her friend and former traveling companion, Liz. Thank you so much for being great
company and comforting me on so many long and arduous book tours. I will miss it all,
but especially the bliss of hanging out in airport bars with you,
watching soccer, and listening to Mbem Bam together. You are and always will be the greatest.
Oh my gosh. I love how beautiful and shit. Whoever wrote that should be a writer. It should be
a writer of novels and autobiographies. That's our friend Liz Gilbert. Hi, Liz. And that was her message.

Griffin, sorry, what did you say? Did you say farm wisdom? Farm wisdom. Get your pitchfork album
recommendations. Farm wisdom. Oh, God. It's like, guys, you can send us Farm Wisdom. It's like,
baby chicks are really soft. They're scientifically proven to be the softest thing on it. That's
great. Give me that. Baby chicks love so hard that it hurts them. No. Yes. Give me that. But don't
give me, chickens only have one hole called a vent. They use to poop, pee, lay eggs, and have sex.
That's simultaneously. That's from Jason C. from Montana. Simultaneously. Yes. They just sort of
fucking explode down there. It's a bad mess. You have to schedule their whole day around it.
There's a lot of, can you, can you go to my ballet recital dad? What time is it? Three? Hell no.
Well, no, I can't. I booked every day of three. I can be there at three oh one.
That's for God damn sure. There's a lot of farmhouse sounds that I am,
a griffin macro I am acquainted to. Maybe a moo or a bat or not like a and that's the sound of
chickens. Not again. Not again. Oh my God. Oh my God. I mean, it's over with dead. I mean,
it's over with and done. They are dead for a second. I'm done for like a whole day. But
oh my God, it never gets any easier. I need a minute.
I don't have a minute. I got to get to my daughter's ballet recital. There's a lot of
stuff coming and going just in. Wowzers. If you're on Survivor, you can use chicken
mess to start a fire. Is that true? Yeah. But what's, it's all so messy. What do we call,
what's, what are we classifying as the mess? That's everything. The poop, pee, eggs, whatever.
The sex. The sex. Is there another one here? Is there another farm wisdom?
Fact. Fact. Hit me. Can you believe there are people who don't like the farm wisdom
segment? It's in it. It enriches me in a cosmically. Fact, in cold climates,
cows love hanging out on top of manure piles because the fermentation going on inside puts
off a lot of heat and that's from Jonathan. Jonathan, who I hope is not intimately familiar
with poop heat, with the, with the, the, the radiation of this situation. I bet at least one
of those cows is just a dirty bird. I mean, they're all dirty birds. It's like, yeah,
it's warm here, right? I know. It's so gross. I would hate to do this before.
There's a lot of different kinds, a lot of different kinds of heat right now. I actually,
I'm like exhausted from making my, my chicken vent noise. Do you guys want to Yahoo? Absolutely.
This Yahoo was sent in by Jesse Marciano. Thank you, Jesse. Marciano. I'm sorry I'm so bad at
names, everybody. It's by Yahoo Answers user Munyara who asks, do you believe in the power of runes?
No. Do you believe in runes and what will happen to you if you carry a rune or runes in your pocket?
Does it have an effect on your life? I wonder if I will benefit from it. Thank you for sharing
your knowledge. What a great like mouth, mouth feel pleasing word. Runes. Do you know, this is
a thing, I'm going to real talk here for a second. I think the reason stuff like this
upsets me so much is like when people talk about like crystals and runes and stuff,
is because there was a period of my life where I wanted this kind of thing to be true so hard.
When you were jerking it to Xanth. Yeah, I mean when I was like from age like 12 to like
17, where it's like please man, please please please please please please, crystal. Do something.
Please crystal do anything. I want Loch Ness Monster to be real. I want there to be runes and
crystals. You had some defying to be a thing. You had a box of crystals if I'm not mistaken.
Yes. I wanted it to be real Griffin. I believed it so hard and now I look back on that Travis
And I'm like fuck fuck that dude. Well, I mean are you mad at yourself? Are you mad at those fucking crystals for not producing of I mean
Isn't that the case like the thing is I'm it's it's like Amonies or Scrooge
I need like three crystal ghosts to come and teach it's like remember remember when you love crystals Travis
Take my crystal in hand fly with me to Zam I'm going to show you the future of crystals still nothing
They're still not doing shit. They're still just like nothing
They're still just kind of like pretty translucent rocks and that's great
I mean that be be into that if you want to be into anything. I'm the crystalline ghost of the present still just crystals
I
For a for a while. I thought at that same age range. I thought I was
Head psychic powers. Oh sure. No, I when I look back
at like my my primary school career I have a lot of regrets
But I think the number one regret is that I wish I wouldn't have fucking tried to move so much shit with my mind
While I was just sort of standing in the hall
I think that was probably number one on the list when I was fucking when I was like working safety patrol and making sure the kids got
Home from school. I wish I had stopped like trying to
Move leaves around with my hand
From far away. I think I think that could have significantly improve your profile
Within the school for sure. We're weird leave wavy Griffin
But you know what it's a gamble because if that shit had worked once
Mm-hmm. It only takes one. It only takes the one time
Doesn't it I actually have a very clear memory of talking to mom about
My belief that I had psychic abilities and then I described to her I said here. Let me prove it
I described to her a
A gentleman who I believed had come into her office like suit color hair color the the whole thing
I have a crystal clear memory of mom
Absolutely dodging whether or not a gentleman matching that exact description
Entered her office on that day. I knew what was up
She definitely in retrospect did not say no that didn't happen. She kind of changed the subject
I think she was scared when we had when we turn 15 and 18 respectively
And you got like a big birthday party and I was like well
Why is 18 so important and mom's response was when you turn 18? You'll find out and my immediate
Thought process was oh shit. You get magic powers at 18
I mean you get the magic you get the magic power of political infranchisement you get the magic power of
Smoking legally you get the magical power of just like buying buying like physical pornography
Which is like I mean basically the worst magic power at this point
But isn't it isn't that like so like because of Harry Potter and shit like zampton other kind of liquids like
There's this whole other world of magic going on and only the people that truly believe and it's like, okay
Cool, so I'm just gonna really truly believe over here for a second and just wait for that to start
I mean people wouldn't be writing about this magic shit if it wasn't a little bit real
It's gotta come from somewhere. What do we just make it up? I'll just buy the one room
And just carry it around my pocket for a while and see how it feels and and if you're out there fucking casting dispersions
I want you to go into your closet
And I want you to open that deep dark secret box that you have that like magnetic copper bracelet in that like moves your fucking
Interjohns around in your wrist to heal your your diabetes
And then I want you to come back and listen to the rest of the podcast. Hey you back. Yeah, that's what I thought
Yeah
Guess he told you I guess I told you mr. Magnetic bracelet everybody on fucking earth had because dr. Drew was like guys
You gotta get down on these magnet bracelets
Moves your inner John's around in such a pleasing manner. There will probably be a max fun meetup 25. Oh max fun week
It's coming up. This is a good segue with this talking about talking about bonkers people who believe in magnet therapy
No, well, I think max fun listeners believe in magic
Hopefully I like to speak, you know if you're interested in this kind of stuff check out
Oh, no Ross and Kerry in the max fun network. They cover this kind of stuff across max fun. What's that?
That's that sounds like a network
Podcast max fun network that kind of sounds like a network
What do you have like some kind of hive mind of comedy? What are you trying to sell me?
Max fun week is coming up. We have a question
About max fun week. Let me just tell you real quick max fun week October 15th through the 21st. Oh my god
That's a coming up
We got a bunch of activities
There's a trivia day. There's a day to leave reviews collectively collective review day
There's there's all kinds of fun stuff. We'll talk about it more here in a little bit
But there's gonna be a ton of meet-ups
for everybody to get together with the max fun listeners and
You can
Find one in your area and go enjoy it
So question to question there will probably be a max fun week meet up a 25 minute drive away from our home
But my husband doesn't want to go because it's a Sunday night
How can I convince my husband that it's okay to occasionally go out on a school night?
Even though it might mess up our chore schedule and that's from no semi
Spontaneity in New Jersey. Do you guys do this? Yeah? Yeah, here's the thing. It does feel like
When you hit a certain eight, okay? So when you hit like 18 and on the school might thing kind of goes away
And you're like fuck it. I got a class tomorrow. I don't care
I'm just gonna just sleep three hours. I'll be fine
Why would you sound like that because that's how I sounded in college because I had so many runes in my pockets
I couldn't move it
Traps coming here he comes. He's like a magic Maraca. Ah shit. It's the crystal guy
But then like you hit a certain point again where you're like I have to do shit tomorrow
I think it's like at like 27 28 where you're like, I gotta do stuff tomorrow
I don't really want to go out tonight, and it's like you hit that kind of invincible
I don't need any sleep age. Mm-hmm. I do there. There is a definite like
There's a definite
risk here though once you open up this this particular
This lamp once you let the genie out of this one where another I was wished for go on
You were where you realize I had wait a minute. I went out tonight
I went on a night when I have to work tomorrow. I could do this
Every night. I had a time
We had a time period where we were playing trivia and in in a bar and it started out
It's like a weekly thing and then we found out that there were like trivia nights in other bars
So we started going like a couple times and then three times and then there didn't need to be trivia
We just should be in a bar and then all of a sudden we were a sitcom because we were at a bar
Every single night and you kind of realize like wait a minute. I've been at a bar every day this week
Was it this isn't this is gonna be a great scene in a sitcom if they sat down at the end of the week
I'm like we're going through receipts or just like honey. We spent six hundred dollars at a bar this week
I have to point out okay. I have to point out an important distinction though juice and
Was it different bars that you're going to every night or was it the same bar? No, it was different bars
That's not what have different bars and a hooters
That's not what happens is sitcoms though where people just like show up to bars like oh man same clowns different circuits
And it's like guys
Go home just go if how I met your mother instead just going to McLaren's in each episode
They were just like going to different bars because of some sort of unnatural compulsion
I don't know that that's not a sitcom. That's this. That's a sit bummer a sit bum
I think that having a night where you make a bad decision like hey
I'm gonna stay out too late on a night when I have to work just makes you
appreciate the and help break up the mundanity of
All those other nights when you don't misbehave. I would also like a big fan
I would also like to point out that the max fun me though started 7 p.m. I
Don't want to I don't want to like first shade and pass out
Fucking Wilford brimley motherfucker, maybe you should just go out you could go out
But I be home you could go out stay out for three hours and still be home by 10
But seven seven thirties when I watch two broke girls and I start molting I
Start the molting process at 730 when two broke girls comes on. I love that show. It's my favorite show to molt to I
Can't wait to be dead
I
