The lads throw on their Throx and scrub their daddies as they dive headlong into the nightmares of capitalism in the hit reality TV show Shark Tank. Topics include what makes a good pitch, the number of socks in a Throx, and the odious core at the heart of American mythmaking.

Dergon

Both Scrub Daddy and Scrub Laddy need to be beaten to death with God's Penis

Grouchiest Marxiest

AJ's pitch is one of the most rancid things I've ever listened to thanks lads

Zipzapzop

Throx three socks

TheTaciturn

I'm going to need a more detailed explanation for what delineates god's penis from man's penis. What is the function of god's penis if not for urination nor sex?

Grouchiest Marxiest

You gotta suck him off, cuz as we know from our good buddy Bill Clinton, oral isn't REAL sex.

Uncle Jam Wants You

fun fact: ABC has another reality show they just finished called "the parent test" my cousin won it. Also, FUBU still has some relevance in black culture, its just been reduced to the Stacy Adams of men's casual lol

Jimmy McMillan

That would be a great non sexual, not peeing use of God's penis

Dergon

WWGPD What Would God's Penis Do?

Jimmy McMillan

God's penis is beyond human comprehension and it works in mysterious ways. Of course if it's not maid of anything solid, Dergon's theory doesn't hold up

Josh's point about the "teaching entrepeneurship" spin on child labor reminded me heavily of this month's mayoral election where I live in Philly - the victor, Democratic machine candidate Cherelle Parker, unveiled this nightmare pilot program to institute year-round schooling. The main horror of this proposal is how openly carceral it is (her pitch is that if kids are in school they won't shoot each other) but there are all these little gracenotes about "preparing kids for the economy" and "educational partnerships with trades" - you can practically hear all the skeeviest construction firms chomping at the bit to have 14-year-olds put up five-over-ones for nothing but shop class credit. All I could think about was how as usual the libs found a way to make the right's reptilian exploits somehow even more skin-crawling.

BrianAlflordIsGoodActually

i gotta admit i was a little disappointed when the scrub laddy didn't have the ultimate irish accent

Bruce

I personally know the guy who pitched Throx. Nice fellow

Alex

I remember an episode where O'Leary just straight up told Cuban he should steal a presenter's idea and I realized that these people must have to totally sign away their rights to sue before they're even considered for the show. Also more like shart tank lol gottem

Bruce

I'm almost certain I could arrange this

Nathan Woods

I'm sure whoever sent Andrew the God's penis bit sorely regrets it now. For real though, y'all clearly had a ton of fun with this ep

Workers' Lit

Fantastic episode lads. Great as always

Elizabeth Power

I wasn’t going to comment, because this is an older episode, but then you said “ the stink of evil, from below , from her” and may I say, I am impressed with the specificity of that Sweeney Todd reference. Who is this for? That was for me.

BrianAlflordIsGoodActually

i kinda wanna see you guys cover a show like doomsday preppers and talk about the whole evergreen grift of apocalypse fearmongering (in this case the practical rather than the religious) and the neuroses of paranoid libertarians

Tay

In Canada it's Dragon's Den which is much cooler
