Can't wait to see what's considered 200th-episode-worthy on a show where three minutes of uninterrupted beeping is considered content

[@just4commentsable]

Because of this podcast 50% of r/headgum content is bad memes and the other 50% is James Bond casting news. I’ve never been more up to date on James Bond casting news in my life

[@agneseditsstuff]

people keep wondering why tf I know about the casting process, more specifically BARBARA BROCCOLI

[@smashino]

This podcast alone must have cost the company millions by being awful and scaring people away.

[@SarcasticPersona]

My ears are jaundiced and my baguette is held aloft like onto a horn. Uhhhh, yeah, it's headgum time.

[@BoolyK]

The fast forward on Amir's story was dastardly

[@graceharper182]

geoff was right to fast forward, it was grim YT might have took down the whole video again frankly

[@APsychoticSloth]

no coverage for emma? this wouldnt have happened in a cola walled room, it would have brought that je ne sais quoi and kept things together

[@karmaheaven7]

One of the funniest aspects of this episode is that every guest seems to be in an affable mood, making all of Geoff’s attempts at sparking vitriol look weak/coy

[@beachedgarfield]

NO SD CARD is here 🎉🎉🎉

[@hellomarjory]

as the new Bond

[@chrisliden716]

Oh my god guys this episode made me cry, and you’ll never guess what kinda tears

[@elialexander8581]

Soy??

[@timgehrsitz3267]

Crocodile, no doubt

[@chrism45]

Is it coconut aminos?

[@BarginsGalore]

i love the idea of a podcast where everyone hates that they’re there

[@slindish]

A fast forwarded story, almost 35 seconds of bleeped out content, a theme song played about 4 times, all within a tight 39 mins. What an ep...

[@BurningRoman]

All timer for sure

[@slindish]

@@BurningRoman of all the episodes so far, this was definitely one of them

[@TheUsualOfficial]

Marika wins Bond of The Week. Golden Mic worthy

[@treesingh8513]

geoff is more than competent. he's ALRIGHT

[@laterbot]

That's not more than it's just different

[@DiVlogsOne]

I think Geoff deserves another unbeknownst 24 hour live stream

[@anthony7960]

make it 72 hours just to be safe

[@matthewhastie8351]

Geoff has given up doing original pods and has become a podcast parody artist of himself. Hes a Weird Al Gankovic, he really is

[@Angels510]

The show turned into an Eric Andre style parody podcast like 5 episodes in wdym?

[@danvera7672]

I love Emma on this pod. Allegations that she has a bad attitude on this podcast?? Honestly, her New Year’s resolution SHOULD be to go eVEN harder at Geoff, become a true FIEND to Geoffrey O’Brien, Conan or otherwise

[@Thickolas]

I don't get it at all. Emma is like unrelentingly positive in spite of Geoff's whole deal But JOEL needs to be put under the fuckin microscope

[@agneseditsstuff]

preach@@Thickolas

[@RodneysRice]

An interesting thumbnail? Actual effort being put into the editing? What is this?! My birthday??

[@ark_isle8936]

You know what the best part of my week is? It's for about ten seconds when I turn on my computer and open up KZbin. 'Cause I think maybe I'll get up there and I'll check my subscriptions and the Headgum podcast won't be there. No goodbye, no "see ya later", no nothin'. Geoffrey's just fired. I don't know much, but I know that. Every week I'm disappointed.

[@agneseditsstuff]

and now Ben Affleck is crying

[@Nintendude61]

“I don’t want to take what I can get. I want to HAVE what I DESERVE” words to live by

[@antabr]

Holy shit. The fast forward on Amir was absolutely insane

[@raphands]

Can't believe I used to love this show. I still do, I just can't believe it.

[@btk72491]

Geoff acting like they CAN’T accept call ins because he couldn’t handle the actual call ins

[@samcoates6667]

13 uninterrupted seconds of bleep. truly a blessing for the ears, nay, years.

[@mschulte040]

Geoff has managed to make a 38 minute episode feel like 5 hours a la Christopher Nolan without actually making it entertaining.

[@stevenagelutton4322]

a 38 minute epsiode and probably a bakers dozen minutes is inaudible due to being bleeped or the microphones failing. A new low for this show. 8/10

[@VICloudkicker]

Congratulations to Marika for winning the Bond of the Week legacy quest on her first draft pick. If ever there was someone that deserved to divine something fine from this show, it's her.

[@incog.nyto.]

more like Geoffrey O'Cryin

[@guysapire]

Amir, Marika, Will and Emma are the four best guests ever and somehow Geoff still managed to make a bad episode

[@akselhenriklessum8547]

The show has really just been trending up since ep 100. I feel like the show used to have some proper duds, I can’t remember last time I felt that. Give Geoff the liveshow!!

[@TheUsualOfficial]

This is a classic B and as Marika said: "take what you can get, man."

[@TheUsualOfficial]

genuinely very well edited, kind of

[@kevinwilliams3449]

It feels like they recorded for three hours and somehow ended up with a 39 minute episode

[@ben10incher]

the most edited podcast I've ever seen, just willingly saying things they can't keep. "I'm gonna bleep this" full minute of a jarring noise. Best podcast uploaded to the net

[@Brett.A]

Marika is here!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@bobsonny]

another common W for the marika gang...sadly the allie mob and the anya squad take a knee this round for reasons, unknown/political/otherwise

[@JuliaSzilagyiYoga]

The cover art can only be described as jarring

[@alexdh2001]

i cant tell if its bad camera quality or some kind of artistic filter but it looks like geoff's mustache has an aura

[@danvera7672]

Dreamt that I got really high on shrooms right as the podcast was coming out and watched it. Then for some reason my body woke me up right when the episode dropped. I’m still not sure which is worse

[@seanwalsh9942]

The thumbnail for this episode made me instantly nauseous, great job

[@minajensen1974]

This is the greatest joke ever written. I was crying with laughter this entire time. I hope this surpasses that fraud Coner Ho'bibti.

[@donotworried]

Best part of my week ❤😂

[@GregTurismo]

16:14 I’m really proud of Geoff for being calm and accepting help and not shifting blame and making a joke to lighten the mood.

[@anthony7960]

Really enjoyed the formless spirit of Emma joining the pod

[@jimmysonglaugh8110]

My favorite thing about the headgum podcast is [REDACTED] and the incredible [REDACTED]. It really sets the show apart.

[@danman274]

great ep this week

[@mmmatches]

Every time Geoff says "Right?" it basically never is

[@Bailey-dj6hz]

30 mins of censored chat, interruptions and repetition, best episode yet

[@georgesampson6773]

can someone please remind me which episode amir makes the ‘ready for fish’ joke 🙌

[@gregoryward412]

Absolutely April in Farris, man. Springing into Monshi.

[@keelansiemens6537]

At this rate, episode 300 will be entirely bleeped, and i truly hope we get there

[@zegodhand]

Sad this is 38 minutes. Shouldn’t be any amount of minutes.

[@dolo8811]

Every time I tune into the podcast, I'm always hopeful that Jake and Amir have replaced Geoff with the guy from CollegeHumor who ate his own poop. I'm let down every episode, but still come back. (JK, Geoff. Thanks for all the laughs!)

[@BigMcChriss]

This was a maddening experience

[@BigMcChriss]

We bleeped so much of the episode lmao

[@chrisliden716]

How come this weeks episode is gone

[@Smiththebat]

Geoff isn’t wrong about Twitter. The for you tab sucks ass and I’ve heard numerous people complain about it.

[@nataliecarberry2840]

Will Hive we WON

[@C4rps]

I like my podcasts to include a minute of dial tone around the 33 min mark, so this was perfect!

[@Tom_Hillman]

This episode is the shortest but feels the longest

[@UFODave69]

The pod is getting cancelled before episode 200. It's like obvious at this point right?

[@stevemyers3082]

Geoff and the No SD Card notification really should have won Worst Couple at the Razzies

[@mulethedonkey2579]

Geoffrey, when you hit that "MINOR" workplace squabbles hard I was like jesus, Geoff, what are you doing, and then I was like, oh nevermind

[@driedurchin]

Sometimes I pause after a sentence for a couple of minutes just to desensitize myself to the dead air.

[@jackkuan3904]

Why are the eps getting shorter? (Not a complaint I want to see this get down to 0:00)

[@phunkybarbie]

I have tinnitus from this episode.

[@mytitaniumalloy]

I need more

[@comeon000]

With fiends like these, who needs a new James Bond?

[@APsychoticSloth]

I think amir is winning, he's the fiend

[@beempboomp]

We can probably just call it quits for 200. End on a THIGH note

[@i2cube]

11:00 is peak headgum podcast with all the overlapping dialogue

[@Fluttercreep]

First... also this is poison

[@blepnir]

It's bad.

[@TheArchsage74]

These episodes are way shorter without ads for millennials who miss what life was like in the 2000s

[@MrBallofa]

the Visual!!!

[@btk72491]

Truly this might be the worst episode ever

[@SunmanXII]

I dont mean to sound crass but Marika is finally here and looking Fiennes, Ralph or otherwise.

[@ianhill6640]

Garcia/Hunter, Weir/Barlow, O’Brien/O’Brien

[@GregTurismo]

Is Emma on the phone or something?

[@MackorBuck]

I love Emma

[@btk72491]

Conan should sue

[@cjtylr]

It's kinda' crazy how much Geoffrey O'Brien carries this show.

[@agneseditsstuff]

Pretty epic

[@matiasreba]

38 minutes gotta be a new low. Less than that, counting the bleeping

[@GregTurismo]

This is week 53 of asking Geoff if I can be on the podcast

[@ravenkliff]

The lighting is so moody this week.

[@GregTurismo]

Hearing bars and tone that long in a row makes me feel like I’m going to throw. Up.

[@GregTurismo]

My name is Greg Turismo and I wish I was Geoffrey O’Brien’s fiend.

[@timgehrsitz3267]

Say what you will about this ep but at least it's CHINE

[@heyheyhey520]

Is will’s hair a wig is a complement.

[@Rushil69420]

Geogeo is pronounced “Jo-jo”? I’m out

[@carlosr6462]

this has to be the worst one yet

[@JiklopDave]

They're all the worst one yet.

[@battleandjams]

Not gonna lie I watched this video purely because of the thumbnail

[@MR-rh1wg]

The only thing bad about Emma is that we don’t get to see her beautiful face during the pod

[@Forthelulz01]

Geoff seems like he's trying to bully everyone lol. Buddy, that isn't fun to watch. It's not funny. If the crew is uncomfortable or not responding, figure out what would make it fun behind the scenes and what they're comfortable with. But most importantly, until Geoff finds a way to make it feel genuinely fun this podcast will struggle. I wish you all luck . Amir is really funny despite the awkward duress he's under!

[@nunya172]

I think it's pretty alrice

[@Shit_tits_FC]

Amir is a beast in every regard
