For me adult swim doesn’t get better than China, Illinois.

Kyle Cassidy

Gary Busey's cameo as the wrestling coach is seared into my brain.

Breathplay

Jan and Wayne Skylar provoke the same reaction from me as the American tourists in Sunday in the Park with George, i.e. beaming and cheering "I love their love" periodically whenever they're on screen. King & queen, living deliciously, matching each others' freak, &c.

When you had mentioned that part of Tim and Eric's schoolwork had been about how VHS is superior to DVD, that instantly made me think of another Tim Heidecker project, On Cinema. A big part of cohost/"special guest" Gregg Turkington's whole shtick is that despite being a self proclaimed movie buff, he's weirdly emphatic on VHS being the superior format to DVD. Like with Spaghett, it's interesting to see T&E dip into their ouvre to produce something new

I really want you guys to watch the Andy Milonakis Show, I had a friend who was really into it. I remember the DVD had a commentary track from the critics who ripped it to shreds in his review. He spent the whole time hating it and confused why they paid him to do it. It's a lot of awkward anti-humor.

Dergon

Awesome show, great job!

Dergon

Honestly I thought from seeing Tom and Mayor in the title we were going to back odyssey lol. My brain has been poisoned. (Re-poisoned?)

Really sad no one's selling calcucorns out there

Elizabeth Power

“I was nervous because I thought they were just going to be doing a bit the entire time.” Kind of sounds like how I feel about this podcast sometimes.

Dergon

Tiny voice in the back of my head that I'm trying to murder: "Oh I've missed hearing about Tom Riley."

Johnny would still have those hands if he had purchased Coy-NO-tee, the world's leading coyote repellent, made by the product geniuses at CINCO. Edit: Also, as someone who researches AI, I can confirm that Josh's rant is on point. It's all a house of cards, if the cards were made of Sam Altman's freshest nasal drippings dried and pressed with the greatest care.

Nyeaustin

Great episode, also loved Josh's rant about AI. 10/10

Fruitless

Pella, IA mentioned 💪

Lucas White

I can't believe there was a Jaarsma/ Van Der Ploeg joke in this

zetsubunn

so sad to hear 12 oz. mouse being disrespected

Jared Whalen

I'm one of the 12 people this was for. This was ab-so-lute-ly wonderful--thank you, even if you did disrespect Gibbons by not including him.
