One of my favorite traditions. Thanks everyone!

[@TheBip666]

That massive mug Leo has just screams “when I’m not gaming, you bet your ass I’m hauling 18 wheels down the highway”

[@evanlol22]

Ben “Dong Slider” Hanson

[@KyleHilliard]

Jeff Cork reallt channeling his inner-Randy Quaid there at the end. Hey, can you guys make this a weekly tradition?

[@Jeorin]

Excellent as always. Having the community participate was wonderful. Thanks, guys

[@cataclysmicbane9068]

I love this. I hope you never stop doing it. I laugh so much harder on the jokes that flop, which lucky for me is 90% of these. I love you guys.

[@maniac6933]

WAS THAT AN AUDIO CLIP FROM THE PRARIE HOME COMPANION FILM!?!?!?! OH MAN!

[@brocketybrock]

I am so happy JeffM did the Roche chant. He's a real one for that.

[@jimpinto4448]

Forget about "Big Poop" Now we have Ben "dong slider" Hanson

[@mwmrhdm]

Im thankful for Roche from FF7R. ROCHE! ROCHE! ROCHE!

[@Smithers4343]

Legit love this series. Hilarious recap of the year, some good thinkers, and some great stinkers! Gotta be hard to write that many jokes and I love to watch them all play out. Keep it up MinnMax

[@juda_5163]

22:37 Jeff's face here genuinely made me cry from laughter

[@palepilgrim1174]

Ben is seriously a national treasure. His awkwardly delivered black jokes never cease to make me laugh hysterically as the others just sit uncomfortable in silence shifting their eyes. You're all national treasures, tbh. Thanks for this guys and have a great rest of the year!

[@timlorow2679]

Every groaner is like a dagger after realizing my joke didn't make the cut lol

[@vaultt309]

You listen to me, Hanson! If Cake-gang gets to count ice cream cake as being cake, then Pie-gang should get to count pizza as being pie!!

[@cptclown2110]

30:17 hahaha just the dark gaming humor I came for 🤣🤣🤣🤣 happy Thanksgiving to you wonderful lads!

[@Lordvestage1313]

I love dark humor 😂😂

[@hermes_job_observer144]

5:09: Leo basks in the glow Ben's praise.

[@DylanCisGood4Me]

My favorite yearly tradition

[@wastelanda7x]

In 2020 I'm thankful for MinnMax. Finally! a podcast with microtransactions!

[@pkstarstorm8856]

I'm thankful that we finall got to play FFVII Remake, but more importantly.... ROCHE ROCHE ROCHE

[@podbod25]

I am thankful I could wake up this morning and watch this! It is nice to get some laughs in before work

[@chriscoleman929]

Favorite time of the year, because of this.

[@ratak06]

I love these every year!

[@PeregrinesChagrin]

9/10. The only thing that would have made this better is if they had all said "nod" to indicate to listeners that they were in fact physically nodding.

[@jacknjilloff]

My favorite yearly tradition thank you!!

[@Dukefazon]

I'm thankful for finding GI back in around 2012 and that lead me to these yearly funny section. This year it's the 4 most funny guys from the internet I know :) By the way I'm from Hungary, we don't have thanksgiving here, there's nothing to be really thankful for.

[@paulmcintyre6857]

Yes.

[@_kaushin1540]

Jeffm's Ben joke was the best one of the night. Great job guys!

[@ARIXANDRE]

Love me those Thanksgiving burns.

I'm not gonna lie, this shit is stupid as fuck but I fuckin' love it every year. Very thankful!

[@mickmast8901]

I love this yearly tradition. I thankful for all the jokes

[@Mike_L.]

Good stuff, thanks.

[@krisirizarry]

This has been hilarious 😅

[@somethingventured3]

Ben, the QTE joke was really good. Bravo.

[@JohnBasedowYoda]

I’m abstaining for a while but this would be excellent to watch high.

[@SuperJoshuaAguilar]

I’m thankful for Cloud gaming for making vaporware a model! Hey folks!

[@DerUserX]

Hooray! We can finally watch the video version. :)

[@jspres86]

32:55 Damn, sick burn JeffM. I mean you're not wrong but still...lol

[@RevZombagger]

The music is right on the tip of my tongue. What's the repeating song from?

[@TheMikerocks85]

Lost it at "Dong Slider"

[@redomagnus4762]

Can someone file me in on what happened with D. Jaffe? His tweet has been deleted

[@dford192]

I'm thankful my comment made it in!

[@DankBeard19]

I dont think anybody actually likes sonic games anymore. Theyre all shit. 40 year old game series though, must be good, but for real plenty of games do 'hold right and pressing a' better. Like who's un here going "man, i can't wait for a new sonic game to come out, i would totally drop cyberpunk to play it" bad game bad stop nostalgia buying hot garbage
