PLEASE GET CALEB HEARON ON THE POD
Dayle O'Leary
erik and lyle should absolutely be free
Paula Mejia
I think the doc is still worth watching, QT did a good recap but seeing it firsthand is wild. BrandArmy is like 13+ creators but consumers are 18+ literally allowing adults to buy kid content & Piper's content is very sexualized considering she's a minor. She also like assaulted all these kids by laying on top of them etc. disturbing stuff
In AnOther-World
*sucks teeth* ...oh.
Leyna Davis
1:00:45 …… aged poorly.
Torayume
Just got to the part where someone leaked to twitter. Jeez, no one cares for patreon policy anymore. But great bit~
NickD
That fantastic 4 take was wild. That movie is so woke they solved world peace in it lol.
Collin L
Almost Friday TV is truly phenomenal. Good shout Will!
Miguel Polanco
Considering how deeply involved the Bop House is with Piper now including when she was a minor; makes me think people still arent taking it seriously.
Alex18000655506
will on game changer would put the biggest smile on my face. He, and brennan lee mulligan would go so hard in the same room just riffing of each other.
Josh
Isn’t Megan an Israeli or something? There’s some connection to Israel here I remember and it’s very on the nose.
Aaron Raabe
I genuinely feel that the podcast is lacking when qt is not there. She adds an amazing flow to the conversations.
Isaiah Kaplan
Hasan just looks so sad
Arianna
Portillo’s mentioned W
JohnnyT
Content creators need to unionize
Ozziepez88
I will die on this hill mad TV is infinitely better than SNL
Korralicious
What’s it about
Jess
I still watch SNL and I’m gonna miss Heidi, Longfellow, Heidi and Emil so much!!
Gauze
Unfortunately. Or give it a year and she’ll be in a “bop house” or something
Lane Kamphausen
In Brian kill me
D Tay
cracker barrel does have cappuccino tho :P
Mustashee
I don't think Hasan understands how bad Mr. Beast's vibes are. Jacksepticeye had beef with him for a reason
River Sauerwein
CALEB!!! Can't wait.
Lisa G
QT please react to the high school catfish next week 🫶
Boomtown
Hasan desperately trying to grasp onto reality while everyone gaslights him into oblivion with Cracker Barrel talk was cinema.
NS
If I accidentally order a chicken f*gwich the next time I go to Chick-fil-A, I'm gonna cancel my patreon 💀
Nate Brogan
will saying qt should watch tell me who i am with zero info is fucking diabolical. jesus christ will. next thing he's gonna be recommending dear zachary to strangers at the airport.
Kombucha Papi
Austin should do kambo on the pod, its non psychoactive but an interesting ceremonial experience- Will might like it to bc a lot of athletes swear it enhances their performance and athletic capabilities
maria
tell me who i am mention made me pause the ep and stare at the wall for a few minutes. that doc scarred me for life
Brando501st
Austin singing Qt TV gave me like a cathartic laugh after that horrible real story ❤️
Lindsey Smith
i live in a state with 0 cracker barrels and i'm so jealous
Ryan Myers
This murats wedding pod NEEDS to happen
Kellie
Just realized QT has crispy r’s. I love it
baybeejoo
omg i love this idea
otto yort
you better hang that hat right there above austin's head
Legacy
I can vouch for Cracker Barrel being goood 10/10 GET THE CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS
Ynara
I was waiting on any of them realising the story didnt fit but they just skipped over the fact that Caleb could have threatened Mr. Beast with a gun, this is hilarious
domino
Caleb Hearon please come on the pod
Jay Perez
Cracker Barrel Menu v World Atrocities goes hard 🤣
teddy dorer
trans gen z know exactly who raegan beast is from the you now era
Megan
watching this while being named megan was such a jumpscare
Lindipops
Qt carried this episode lol 😂 I don’t even have to watch that documentary thanks to her synopsis 👌 every week we should have this lol plus it’s way better with the four of them together ❤️ the dynamic of the four of them is great I can’t wait for a holiday podcast like a cabin in the hills vibe lol they can take Kaya for protection
Ynara
The beginning where Will just spreads a bunch of misinformation about Mr. Beast and Calebs pie story 😭😭😭
Ole Heide
at least now everybody knows that Cracker barrel is just for real Crackers
Ole Heide
The Fantastic Four Movie being conservative bating is especialy funny because from the 60ies until at least the 80ies it was marvel who always was the "woke" company
Dani
QT easily carries the cast, it's hard to watch without her, honorable mention to will/austin
Jose
OMG inviting someone to work but not for the wedding LMFAO
Samuel Grant
Must get cheerwine from Cracker Barrel, best soda!! Plz review
Sylvie
It's a lot easier for the parent company that owns the real estate to rent the Cracker Barrel building to another company if it doesn't look like a gold rush saloon. All the places that used to have such distinctive looks, like McDonald's or Pizza Hut, are now very boxy. It never had anything to do with being woke. Why would a major corporation choose now to be woke?
Jb12
Stop being so mean to Marche D:
Alexander Zheng
My small parasocial moment this episode was at the end when I heard my birthday date and perked up
Samuel Kainaroi
Will on Smosh would be goated, but I gotta say Austin on Smosh would be next level
Paula Mejia
I can't wait for Caleb on Fear&!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ale
and you're honestly so real for that!
Fiona
Tbh I couldn’t get into season 7…. season 6 on the other hand??? Incredibleeeee
Fiona
Incorporates labor movement, philosophy, history, and social commentary.
Fiona
Anybody interested in the kidfluencer stuff, I STRONGLY recommend Binchtopia’s episodes “honey, I monetized the kids again” and “baby’s first simulacra”. Sooooo good.
scrap sd
10 years, or maybe even 3-4 years, we’ll all receive news that Piper OD’ed on something or is in jail for some crazy shit. Bet.
Dohregard
Say what you want about Cracker Barrel's aesthetic, patrons, gift shop, smell, music, location... But you canNOT shit on their food. The only time I have ever had bad cracker barrel was in a random place in Mississippi and it was still better than McDonald's.
Zaynah
Knowing about the piper rockelle stuff way before the documentary makes me feel a little crazy
lulu
will would bring back snl in an insane way
Fueled_by_Tea
Cracker Barrel is heat. I was born and raised in the south
Holly smith
Im not doing it to be funny. I only watch when QT is here. But its ok we have wine about it.
Eli Poven
I got a latte from a CB near Tampa and the cup was almost as big as my face. It was good too!
Fueled_by_Tea
Qt is the Caroline Kwan of the podcast and I love it
Zachary Brown
NOOO WILL THATS A SEPARATE VIDEO
Jeremy Rosal
Shit, if this Tiffany lady can't be put in prison cuz our "justice" system is trash, I kinda hope the universe/karma/god/whatever just takes her out some other way. It pisses me off how so much scum gets to just walk around free and clear.
Jeremy Rosal
I'd settle for life in prison. Shit, send her ass to a hard labor camp forever.
Pratyush Kaware
I agree with Will’s Fantastic four take. The movie felt conservative for some reason, especially I see it can pander to “pro-life” folk.
Seth Pritchett
im only a few mins in and i dont comment on many videos so pls take this plea im pleading, BRING CALEB ON THE POD FLY HIM OUT, GET HIM NICE COLOGNE AND MAYBE A FRIED CHICKEN (its on his writer)
G
Can someone get QT into Love Island?? So much drama from S7.
G
Agreed. I didn’t feel it was pushing any idea about the 50s being great, it just seemed like a superficial backdrop.
DATABASS
GET THE ALMOST FRIDAY BOYS ON THIS SHOW ASAP. Holy shit what a blast that would be
Bridget
Don’t associate with them
Bridget
Fuuuuuck almost Friday
Eliana
Sorry qt but if youre not on the pod just doesnt hit the same way
buggy
the last 15 minutes was my favorite 😂 just perfect group group dynamics
SlippyG
If Will should go on anything, it should be more the Dropout / Smosh route, just Yes And wildcard it and have a blast
Simon Chavira
I can be very honest when I say if QT is not here I don’t watch. I like the rest of you but QT just makes the vibes so much better
Nyk Q
Unfortunately I have to let Austin have it over Will, The Barrel got espresso machines in '19 and got really mad when they weren't a hit, but they do have them
dietcoke
Suggestion for the PPT presentations, I think they should be uploaded so that we can see all the hyperlinks and stuff in them.
Christine
Surprised the conservatives weren't trying to get the white "cracker" off the logo years ago. How offensive 😂
Mariah Heley-wright
QT tv is great. Always leaves me thinking
LucyLun4r
Jtree podcast episode would be awesome tho
CattyCh
Literally joined patreon for QT
Tom N W Nook
I think the rating system for documentaries is from Wine About It
Ivy
LMFAO AT HASAN RANTING WHILE QT READS THE MENU AND NO ONE LISTENS HAHA
Saucy_kvn
+1 for cracker barrel episode
fish
CALEB ON THE POD LET'S FUCKIN GOOOOOOO!!!!
Wafent
I watched Fantastic 4 and I do not see where Will is coming from. I think it is a pretty hot take. Hope to see him do a film night on it for on his Wednesday streams.
dara
Tiffany needs to rot under hell wtf
kaloncpu57
"Do they have espresso at Cracker Barrel?" I think if you actually use the little Half-and-Half cups at the table for your coffee, they shoot you on the spot
Emzy
Omg literally could watch a whole episode of y’all watching Caleb clips. Please get him on the pod! He’s hilarious and has such a genuine care for human beings. I’m sure he could add so much to the dynamic and y’all would be cracking up!
Alwxg
Idk it was all very subtle, but what I know for sure is Marvel has scared of its more radical and political history and has been trying to play it too safe and bland. But also they did try and introduce an idf super heroe who was in her own comic very racist but they wanted to make her into a good character.
Adrien🍀
thank GOD you’re getting caleb on he’s incredible,, loves to talk politics, and social justice, cares a lot about mid west and small towns, and is fucking hilarious
NotaRealName
I have only 1 rule, No QT no me.
Reeshi the Alien
To add to the Marvel Fantastic Four theory, I felt like Thunderbolts coddled white boy trauma, so Will is 1000% on to something here
Jordan
Fear& Cracker Barrel and Will Neff Mushroom Sherpa episodes!!! DO IT LADY!!!
Clark Zuckerberg
Yeah very confused on the take lol. This isn't even OUR 50s. It's a different universe, that seems like it didn't have as much pain and suffering that our earth has had.
Joe Menjivar
Fantastic Four was pretty alright,
SpaceAce19
I believe he previously said on his stream that this upcoming twitchcon he's gonna be one of contestants on game changer or something with dropout.
Kristi Renfrey
I wish they finished the Caleb clip
DV
Currently longing for gabe 🥀
Penelope Urquidi
I watched Tell Me Who I Am and wtf
Brotonik
"I have never been fun." LMAO QT
Isaac
wills opinion on fantastic 4 is so strange
edgard
Totally agree
Caleb Williams
Austin if y'all get Caleb on the pod he BETTER be flown first class. The disrespect lmaooo
Matthew Haughton
Qt is right as always, especially about that cinnamon roll skillet
sean
it was really cool you guys let timmy game guy make a guest appearance on this pod episode
ErosTraus
Hasan trying to explain all the things more important then Cracker Barrel and Will, QT, and Austin ignoring him so so perfect I almost died laughing
Mikey
Have the almost friday guys on please
Vacationinjordan
I like this idea
Jasper Petty
Thank you QT for confirming my belief that Cracker Barrel food is good
roz
they actually do have espresso drinks at cracker barrel don’t let them silence you Austin
Tim D
molly with marche :)
James Hay
Hasan having a political crash out while the others are distracted by food is the representation of current state of America/the world. 😭
mk
Monthly Fear& Gaming night would go hard
Cole Helvey
To be fair, he is gay
Cole Helvey
I would wager something close to 50% of this country just disassociate with anything remotely political whatsoever
ChiCha
Yes! She did a collab with them and it was so fucking weird and disgusting now knowing that her mom likes to pimp her out for views.
Katie Martens
The pie joke from Caleb is old and not about Mr beast but so close will lmaoo
Liam Orlando
My worlds are colliding with the Caleb stuff 🤣
stinky
im glad qt was in this episode or i wouldve skipped it-- so funny
Greg Dittrich
Coke over mushroom??? 😭😭😭
Mark Sp
Will, I gotta say you're being a hater with that F4 opinion lol. Critics and the audience loved it. It's widely seen as a "return to form" for Marvel. Now do I think their money printing days are over? Yes absolutely, but F4 was not a bad movie, not even by Marvel standards.
Krissy Hunt
I heard a Timmy giggle
Ziggy Stardust
Can you guys post like the whole thing on Patreon, kind of strange watching half on Youtube and half on here.
Te Gatobu
I vote for post fucked up wedding podcast🤘
Te Gatobu
Austin 10/10 man 😁👌quartet was great!
Julian
I genuinely think this pod works better as a quartet than a trio
Yesenia Mart
The synchronized "What do you mean" killed me 😂
captain jes
Lmao, I'm with Austin. It DID suck
Drew Steetz
lmao Will thinking that pie bit is about Mr Beast is so funny
Valerie 06136
I live in Georgia and I’m listening while driving and I passed four Cracker Barrel signs during the segment
Alex da Silva
"They daisey chained the videos" who would force thier audience to another location to get full context of a story.
Edwin mejia
Get Caleb on the pod please
Lily
I need caleb on the pod so bad it’s crazy
Hannah
I saw fantastic 4 last night it was good! It didn’t seem to focus on the fact is was the 50s at all. Also Doomsday is going to go insane in the box office, mark my words.
Mia v
this was such a messy episode omg
Hannah
Qt has to watch Unknown Number on Netflix it’s similar it’s so insane
Cbzimmie
The tea at the end of this episode is crazy
Rich
QT confusing a festivals with Portillo’s is hilarious
Austin
thank you :')
Sarah R
Didn’t Piper also collab with the Bop House girls hinting at a future OF like a year ago? That’s the only thing I ever heard about her tbh
cawcawcondor
oh man, Will's gonna love Portola
frankenkoopa
Lenny and Megan🤮🤮🤮
bela
Damn. Now I want to eat at Cracker Barrel.
J CDubz
Fear& Peak?
Mike Mike's Mike N Ikes
I have a flash drive where i download old "Austin" Shows :) Miss those forever
Bij
qt we're literally only here for you #girlypopnation
Austin Dean
I disagree with Will on fantastic 4, the movie is set in an alternate world that is different from the main world, and the 50’s them was a supposed to be stylized to be like when fantastic 4 came iut
Chris
Will and Austin need to open up their own CFA, Cock-Fil-A, and they would serve cock fagwiches.
Aspy 130
The Caleb clip gets so muchfunnier I wish they'd let it play all the way through lmao
Christian Katulka
ALMOST FRIDAY MENTIONED
Stephen Conway
The kidfluencer show has some synchronicity with the rather grim news about Lil Tay launching an Onlyfans for her 18 birthday. Her whole rise to fame and the fallout had a lot of bad stuff going on in the background involving her family.
Nick Kane
chicken fagwich 😂😂😂
NoLifer445
Well that was horrifying. Stomach churning. How is that mother not in jail?
shane friedrichsen
Funniest episode on the YouTube, darkest episode on the Patreon. If they had EVER been gone, they’d be so back rn.
LanitaDelBBL
I’d love to see a QT TV on Paris is Burning!!! arguably the most important documentary on the queer experience
Chris
I thought this podcast already featured the most boring F anyones' ever seen (THIS IS A JOKE DON'T BE MAD AT ME)
NoLifer445
NEVER have I been so fortunate to have access to the patreon stil. l want to hear about this twisted kid influencer story.
Tony Matos
Love Will but the F4 take was just wrong. The 50’s in THIS universe WAS great cause it was a peaceful time where they were able to take care of the world’s problems, thats why the memes were about Reed going to the main universe and not knowing how to handle it cause its so chaotic
isabeya!
CALEB ON THE POD and pls do fear& murat’s wedding pretty pls
kayla ☆
okay I made a joke to myself about pod at the wedding but I need it please
Nick Kane
Dude a So True Fear & crossover MY WORLDS ARE COLLIDING
Jamie Hauken
Can't wait for the Fear& rebrand with a simplified version of their logo without the outer circle and with the most boring F you've ever seen.
111 222
that being said, great episodes all around, the pod is at peak when the whole gang is here <3
111 222
I love Will, but that might be the worst Fantastic Four take lol
nikeun
dude Will i feel like you would be perfect for collabing with dropout. like make some noise or game changer or any of the other shows they have. i was so shocked to find out that this crossover hasnt happened yet (unless i missed something, if i did chat please let me know). but i feel like their crowd is incredible both talent and audience wise and seem like such a great fit to Will. i'd be sooo stocked to see him on dropout once in a while
Brianna
Will is a king for still trying to get everyone to order their tuxes for the Murat's wedding
Adoggman
GET CALEB ON THE POD!
Matt Miller
oh can we get the fear& crew to do the katseye gap dance?
Justin Badilla Araya
Crazy qt didn’t went deeper and didn’t talked about piper almost joining the bop house 💀
meemie
oh god i always feel so sad about piper and all the young kids who follow her both online and in real life
Deanna
Ok for tell me who I am- trigger warning csa.
Deanna
Omg will mixing up the ate all the pies thing to be about Mr beast kills me
Jaquez
It gets worse Sophie Rain who runs the 'bop house' an OF content house was teasing Piper Rochelle joining them on OF when she was still 17.... so shes being groomed by them as well as her mother. Its so twisted.
booperdrop
CALEB ON THE POD I WILL CRY AND PEE AND POO
Ana ☆
if yall don’t get caleb on the podcast ISTG
Matt Miller
as amusing as a 1 am wedding night pod would be, I think a pod a week earlier would be better so you all enjoy the wedding and no one has to travel to a wedding they aren't allowed to attended.
Axl_F
QT you're the secret spice, without you the pod dynamic is drastically different. The boys really need you, don't let your imposter syndrome tell you otherwise!
Dulce Jeremiah
highly disagree with the F4 take. marvel has been putting out some slop, mixed with decent stuff, sprinkled with bangers post endgame but F4 (along with Thunderbolts) is completely a First Step (im sorry) in the right direction. also comparing to Superman is like comparing LotR to Harry Potter. they are too different and one will always be biased towards one world compared to the other.
Fletcher
I like how, when things get real political, you just see QT staring out into the distance, dreaming about her Cinnamon Roll Skillet
Dustin
Austin watch soviet storm ww2 documentary
Renee
i would love to see caleb on this podcast it would so fucking funny
mariposa 🦋
Omg I LOVE Caleb that would be so cool if y'all do end up having him as a guest!!
mingle27
Marche you get you ass to that wedding and film that Fear& after dark episode you hear me!
lily
yall gotta get caleb hearon on the pod
jerem.hyr
But its unreal how good this episode + patreon were, new meta type shit
theguypat
Hasan having a meltdown and QT just looking for something to eat 😂
jerem.hyr
Hard disagree with Will on the F4 movie (Its an alternate timeline, as far as we know, their 50s aren't that conservative for how they treat moleman land and how they united gouvernements)
Alex18000655506
The Marche hate is unreal. I see you king <3
Alex18000655506
Austin "I don't want to do an hallucinogenic... maybe coke?" Show with another banger quote.
Plube
Austinshow is so great. I miss the shows he'd drag will and hasan to just to make some of the best content on twitch
Michelle
Will needs to join dropout for something! make some noise, game changer or their new standup show
26days
their increased suffering during the QTTV segment every time new information was revealed 😭 and honestly, same
Sophie
omg qt's story was wayyyy more horrifying than i thought it was gonna be
saturnvillage
god the piper rockelle part was like a fucking train running me over erasing the joy that the quartet brought me
mentallygrowing247
Hahaha the clip Will thought was Caleb was from a totally different podcast hahaha
Jojen
No
Jojen
The quartet is the best thing Austin has done for the podcast. Every single one of them should do more things like this Lmao
Hetta
Those singers were incredible!!!
Eric Woodard
QT definitely always had the rating system lol
Dyanelis
drew and caleb clip on my fav pod🙂↕️🙂↕️❤️❤️
Perry Ritter
I had the stupidest smile on my face during the barbershop quarter bit. What an incredible episode.
Issa osama
Wait am I first the comment on Patreon?
colleen
Austin you fucking killed it with the barbershop quartet
Derk
first
