Happy for a double Gene week!

Jack Johnson

Reggie and Jobs. High praise Mr Park

Jason Bolla

Shout out to Gene correcting Tomodachi. I thought I was going crazy the past month hearing it. Tamagotchi, Tomodachi.

BigDumbStupidIdiot

Been too long since the audience got some Gene Park DP

Mass Effect 3 on the Wii U was an experience. The elevator loading screen in the Citadel took at least 5 minutes

Dakota Brown

Am I tripping or did Gene originally say he liked the Mario Galaxy movie? I was surprised when he called it trash this episode.

Gene Park

man people are really different. can you not really imagine enjoying something that’s also trash? it’s called having a nuanced conversation - g

The mispronunciation of Pokémon across many/most Last Stand Media hosts has highly annoyed me for a long while, but I’ve kept quiet in the comments so as to not be obnoxious. It’s especially been notable among those hosts who were mispronouncing it while describing how obsessed with the franchise they were at some time in their lives, and therefore should know better, in theory. On the other hand, I think Gene has been the best about it followed by Brad. For the record since it was brought up in this episode, “Po-KAY-mon” is correct. “Po-KUH-mon” is also acceptable. “Pokey-mon” is wrong and bad!

Dakota Brown

I didn’t insult you, just said I was surprised man. That’s all. I wasn’t even sure if I remembered your original opinion correctly or not. Thanks for clarifying, even if you are going to be insulting about it.

zepplinmike

Yes I know. But you have to understand it’s like nails on a chalkboard every time Colin, Dustin, Matty, etc say the word, which is far from a rare occurrence (Micah doing it hasn’t bothered me as much bc of her accent and less experience with the franchise). Anyways as I said, I usually refrain from commenting about it bc what is the point but it fully came up in this episode so figured I’d say my peace and then go back to keeping it to myself, lol.

Wasn’t expecting a Handmaid’s Tale to be called out for the misery porn it is, but pleasantly surprised to hear it called out for what it is by Gene and Micah. It’s for people who found Hunger Games too subtle. Something to watch while they jack off to how clever they are.

Brad is aaaaaaaaall talk he talks a big game about this fried chicken and then let us all down 😭

Haru Discourse

Micah, you should totally add the Game Grumps to your Tomodachi Life island.

Gene Park

i mean if you listened to the episode i talk about how the bowser jr. dynamic was honestly heartfelt, well acted and well written. i'm not insulting you, i'm just wondering why you miss that part of the conversation. and again, even if someone says it's trash, it doesn't mean they don't like the thing. - g

Gene Park

i'll excuse micah because boston, as louis ck once said, is a city full of people mispronouncing things. it's just her own accent lol. but yes, if you're a fan of the series and you're still mispronouncing things after 20 years, i don't get it. - g

Gene Park

and apologies if you thought insulted you. again, i'm mostly fascinated with how different people's brains work. the fact that you think what i said was an insult, again, is completely different from how i view the way i talk. it doesn't have to be an insult or a compliment. it can be, again, a nuanced conversation. - g

Nice to have the gang all back together again. I liked the original Mario movie over Galaxy. 🤷🏻‍♂️

My dad and his siblings are italian immigrants from when they were teenagers/early adulthood in the 50's. One of my uncle's names is Mario. Let me tell you something - nobody's saying Mary-O. Though that dialect is something that east coast, new york, Italian Americans use, it's certainly not a conventiomal pronunciation of the name.

Glen Yelenovic

Talk about burying the lead… Gene waited until 1:35 to say he got the talking flower!

Glen Yelenovic

Amazing to hear from the united Triforce! Hope to hear from Gene again soon.

Mike Osborne

So great to hear Gene again, glad he’s seemingly doing well.

Brad. Stand. The. Fuck. Down. You said you were going to go and get that spag bol! Now are you in? Or are you out when it comes to committing to this podcast? And don’t say no Brad, because I’m sorry but you’re already in.

ZombiesNJ

Glad to see Gene back!

Michael Hedrick
