"The body keeps the score, though, Tim". I shook silently with laughter in my office chair over my empty grocery store sushi container.

[@skullingtonturtle8080]

Just for the sake of being able to reference this: it’s at 26:34

[@lilywelch2973]

I love this. Chris’s body language is like the freshman who hangs out with the older kids and is trying to get them to approve of him. I love him so much this dynamic is everything

[@TheRach995]

Im a longtime viewer of Chris' content, so happy to see him collaborating with a comedic powerhouse like Tim! Hell yeah bro.

[@generic_handle_1]

The sound effects are the only reason I tune in. If i want words i'll read a book, which i won't, thanks

[@aila6814]

chris fleming on Office Hours, fuck yes. Chris was looking like a perfect boba cup on this one. I always forget tim is such a great singer, glad they got Ruth on here. Her music is amazing.

[@loversandlosers]

Tim's humor is so subtle it goes over everyones head including mine but when it sometimes reaches me im like jesus christ this guy is the funniest man in the world

[@jasonlafontaine6306]

I think Chris Fleming is the funniest person of my generation. It's great to see that he's still working on stuff. For a minute, I thought he'd been de-railroaded by Adult Swim

[@bramsanjanssan4908]

That Ruth Garbus song sounded amazing! Chapeau for Tim for having balls to step in like that

[@EshenBaum]

Chris Fleming is the BEST guest! When he points out that the “did you think i was mad at you?” is scary! 😂

[@reneekuhl7614]

Tim’s fans are the best! Great callers today! And there is already overlap between Chris and Tim fans of course and that’s lovely to see! Great episode guys.

[@scottkay483]

thank you tim

[@ITX-EcoClass]

No, Scott, thank you.

[@worldsbiggesttruck]

Tim and Ruth’s voices work really nicely together

[@puddlesplashers]

They sound like the band low!

[@broncotrolly]

I nearly teared

[@Phatlove123]

Now this is valuetainment!

[@alandunnedraws]

I think this was one of my favourite Office Hours of all time. The guests (and zoomers) were brilliant 🫶

[@jmcoffeecat7]

Loved the guests today! Love Chris. Whole show was an absolute riot. One of the best!! Love yall!

[@malaislinn]

Just here to say i love Chris Fleming

[@johnmorrison8618]

Tim is on fire here! Firing on all comedic and musical cylinders!

[@joeyspears6346]

I hope yall are able to get Chris on again one day! He’s so freaking funny!!

[@KatherynRoberts]

Thanks, Tim. Thim.

[@JamesRone]

The musical performance is so sincere and unironic. I really love it.

[@datapa9an]

The lyrics to that song and your voices together made me cry, thanks Tim and Ruth.

[@conorkelly6351]

Beautiful song from Ruth!

[@sandeeclaws]

Wow now I know where I recognize Chris from! I’m pretty sure I saw him do a standup set at Taix years ago. He was getting heckled by a couple of people in the front row, and he like.. squeezed a tube of toothpaste on them?? while dancing at them.…? it was awesome. or maybe it was someone else but I’m 90% sure it was him and 50% sure it was toothpaste.

[@nubbynater_8894]

That song is so moving!

[@ForestDwellerLegend]

start-to-finish solid, everyone 👍

[@vacantmoon]

Props for having Ruth on...sounded sweet👍

[@Usualeclectic]

[@guitarsfromhell77]

[@endtimessupportgroup5685]

[@CraigGillman]

[@MUMBOT]

[@natebaustad3628]

How did the first caller's ascot not get mentioned? Congrats to him on his sobriety, focusing on that was the right choice

[@MarioVelezBThinkin]

great music.

[@Samarastube]

RUTH ! TRUTH! we love you.

[@Relaxinghypnoasmr]

Wait that’s THE vic Berger in the background? Also Ruth garbus and band were amazing.

[@oranjuly]

Intro is dope

[@evandasilva4658]

can anybody get some sun protection for your president please

[@bbbbbb223]

Tim casually asking Chris Flemming if he was "an addict of any kind?" tickled me.

[@christopherbown1889]

Ruth Garbus channeling Mimi Parker!

[@AktionPak]

Bridie (sp?) was incredible. Landing zingers and getting real. Richmond USA is done. Chris Fleming best guest 2023

[@thezioncurtain]

Let me take a whiff

[@soakupthenoise]

There are some beautiful complex Jimmy Buffet songs out there. Check out Wheel Inside The Wheel, Autour Du Rocher, Jamaica Mistaka, Frenchman For The Night, Creola, and Desdemona's Building A Rocket Ship.

[@Bootrosgali]

Nice you started late means I get a night time to ZZZ version of OH

[@chefjeff1366]

nice, another "silly, goofy eyeballs" thumbnail -- LOVE the refusal to depart from 2019... sharply funny!

[@peanutbutterrobot]

Can we get a T-shirt policy on the show? I've never had someone flash their armpits at me for such a long period of time lol

[@almaroon3384]

ringling ringling - j buffett

[@Derm_video]

41:00 😂

[@yellina10]

Is John Mayer the new Jimmy Buffett?

[@megdhd]

I yelled that at my screen

[@kathleen8549]

Tim,please cover the man who was recently arrested while trying to cross the Atlantic in a giant hamster wheel!

[@GAGAGAGAGAGAGA357]

Peanut M&M’s are GINORMOUS. No debate! First time watching this here tv show that’s somehow a podcast. Adore Chris, always! As a newbie, I also cannot help but stare I’m into the ADHD element of these sound bites. Tally ho, All!

[@MrCustom05]

dougs commercial lolllll

[@kyledrums]

Doug/Vic, please get the Jackie puppet "WEEED!" sample for a drop.

[@joeyspears6346]

I actually think Harry Styles will become our board shorts nymph within the next 30 years. You’ll see

[@megdhd]

I pay money for this

[@WingZeroSymphonics]

Good episode. Less on the money talk and more on the value of life, friendship and art. Let’s talk money next week. Just one day at a time. 👍✌️

[@scurvylouse8458]

we call that the "pitty of the day"

[@tedsperling376]

“Right out of Brigadoon”

[@Uberbets]

Dave Matthew’s could replace Jim Buffet. He’s probably wearing a Hawaiian shirt and crocs as we speak

[@josef2012]

Is Chris actually one of the preset character skins from Elder Scrolls:Oblivion?

[@epoliodafuture]

What’s the word with that there McCartney shirt?

[@jackbarrett8065]

was that a nod to owen wilson’s girl commercial mr. pound?

[@joellamkins7847]

Having to listen to Patrick Bet I’m a total douche bag David and a catholic priest is my version of HELL🔥🔥🔥!!!!!!

[@Solbrick]

Tim should replace Colbert and make late night fun again.

[@TimHeidecker]

i should replace FALLON

[@Solbrick]

@@TimHeidecker This is correct.

[@crawdadds]

I need a link to Tim's version of 'Margaritaville'!

[@Arc-ug7dc]

Top 3 worst thumbnails to see while on shrooms

[@BradSandoval]

Wonderful episode, with one exception- those horrible horrible sounds effects in the background. Tim needs to do something about this!!

[@OnsenDreamscapes]

I can see Chris left for the song . Also pronounced moe-no not like mono stereo

[@PissyKnish]

Each week they try to find guests more unwatchable than the last. Commendable.

[@tylerhartsock4951]

Is that a guy or a girl

[@felix-dk9tr]

Song starts at 54:26

[@dmoke4899]

F dic! F voug!

[@loversandlosers]

chris is good but hes like a pitbull when he gets laughs like you cant egg him on too much or it starts getting unfunny

[@GorbyP]

Why can't they have one normal looking human being on this?? Every guest is some kind of mutant
