Would love Pete Holmes on the pod but would love to hear Griffin and David make it weird (separately)
Daniel Johnson
Bullet Train is the most I’ve ever disliked a 3/5.
Mariana Sedillo
“There’s a horsey in the water!” Was David in Full Daddy mode I cackled
Isaiah Bornman
'Oops all Lunch orders' crossover with '12 Hr Day ?!

Please no Pete Holmes.

Maybe the POWAQ were the QATSI we made along the way…

i watched truman show a lot as a child and would imagine my front door glass panel was a tv people were watching me through. obviously im fucked now

At 51:17 the way Ben says "I didn't eat the Little Caesars" is one of my all time favorite soundbites he hits it like Beatlejuice it's amazing

Ben owning two alligators named "balloon" and "steakhouse" is the highlight of this one for me, and more reason I hope we randomly meet some day.

It's safe to make fun of the Amish, I think. They aren't listening.

I'm getting a "maximum usage count for this promo code" error.

See you there! Orchestra baby. Almost went balcony for the Jason mantzoukas “freaks in the balcony” bit but decided to be front and center.
Alex Solliday
I feel like you need to do a death valley/Disneyland/universal studios patrion trip. Ben has never seen the desert.
Ross
Woohoo got my tickets!
Connor Crehan
Now to hope that this selection of movie pre-rolls includes Greg Marcus from Marcus theaters (they always include super corny jokes and I love it)
Dan
*Sean Fennessey TikTok voice* See you at the movies!
Connor Crehan
Ticket link is live and was able to get my ticket. See you all there!
Alex
See y'all March 23rd :)
Jordan Gibson
I feel like Griffin would absolutely love stardew Valley
Charles reighard
I kept getting error when i put that in
Chas
The defense of the Barbie trailer ending with David requesting all the haters go to the deepest, darkest place of his ass has been the highlight of 2023.
Lizz
POW! Right in the qatsi!

For Canadian blankies y’all have talk about the cineplex snowman short at the live show

I don't pretend to be John Hodgman's friend, but from reading his books, I would venture that his son picked up sailing during their regular stays in Maine (aka Vacationland, available everywhere #alwaysbeplugging).

Weir is my dream series, as well. You never know -- as we are not Spreadmasters. Maybe all their Truman Show talk will hype them up into doing it sooner rather than later.

to be clear the password is 8YEARS correct

Can we take your complaint to like those guys on the local news who shame companies?
Rad Rodge
Peter Weir, man, I was really hopeful for a while that the upcoming Boyle miniseries was actually a Weir miniseries cause it quickly seemed sure from the way they were talking about the David pick that it would be one of the two. Only problem I have with doing Boyle (which should be a great series) is that it seems like that’ll push back Weir at least a couple more years

Dang I didn’t expect G&D to just completely ether the Amish in the middle of Powaqqatsi
Blank Check with Griffin & David
You won't be able to see it until the presale goes live
Donald W Pratt
Matthew McConaughey in Reign of Fire is one of the best portrayals of an unhinged zealot I’ve ever seen. Charisma and manic energy pour off of him.
Wade Hollomon
Should we be able to see the event details before the pre-sale goes live? Every time I try it says "There was something wrong with the password you entered."
Anthony Regina
Watching this on Tubi with a TJ Maxx fast fashion ad before it sure is…something
Jenny Potter
Balloon & Steakhouse

I went to see Bullet Train in 4Dx (since blank check has made me obsessed with 4Dx) and first of all they didn’t turn off all of the lights and I kept expecting them to and hoping anyone else would get up and complain then 5 minutes into the movie I went and told the people. Then 25 minutes in I get fed up again bc the 4Dx part is not happening. The seats are completely stable. I go out to complain again to the poor 18 year old who has no idea where there manager is but they’re trying. At 45 minutes in, I’m seething in anger. I’ve missed 15 minutes of the ridiculously convoluted plot and super extravagant thing I paid for isn’t happening. I go out again and they still can’t find the manager. I stand there for 10 minutes missing even more of the movie and just decide to leave. I call regal and fandango and they say bc I saw most of the movie (even without 4Dx and since no one else complained) that I could not get a refund. Bullet train, not a great moviesh experience

In case anyone else is wondering its The Truman Show where youve heard the main theme before
