Same😢 hes literally my comfort character🥰

[@lexi1481]

[@AnIrishMan500]

Sorry I'm new to this,can you explain what you mean by you wish George 'existed'??

[@ColeCooper.]

Imagine a podcast where George talked as much as Max and Max just sat there basically doing joke ad libs

[@soniablaggan4123]

to the girl that sent in that she wants to ride George into battle, DON'T WE ALL🤭

[@chlogroombridge6404]

George is so fit but looks like he has membership at the golf club

[@phoebehampton9067]

If George's Grandad was so good at shooting, he would have been a bike . 😂 . This podcast is the chaos i live for.

[@Skyelily]

Cant wait to hear what Max's excuses are for his Disney problem 😭

[@elliewhitaker9716]

I absolutely ADORE this podcast. If you ever stop making them I will sue Disney

[@SiGr10614]

sorry but George is handsome on another level!

[@jessbratt1547]

If George's Grandad was so good at shooting, he would have been a bike 🤷‍♀

[@akoiro_3224]

I was so bored all day and finely my favorite podcast is here to entertain me.

[@courtlelliott]

I appreciate George’s need for fans. I sleep with two going every night, have a handheld fan that stays in my bag, and one that hooks around my neck for outdoor events 😅

[@courtlelliott]

I’ve also been told my room feels like a morgue 🤣 When sharing a hotel room with my coworker, I give her all my blankets and choose the bed closest to the AC

[@gamusicus]

I was listening on apple and when Max mentioned puss flaps I lost it and laughed out loud!

[@l0uisaaa_]

Watching this podcast is something I look forward to at the end of the week ❤

[@lexi1481]

them not knowing abeulo is so funny bc it’s one of the most basic spanish words

[@chloegriffin747]

It’s called a febrile seizure/convulsion, it’s quite common in children and it happens when your temperature spikes too high too quickly, it isn’t necessarily a condition it’s just something that can happen ❤

[@soniablaggan4123]

If George is learning Spanish, so am I x

[@Nevahtatertot]

This pod helped me sleep after being up for 3 days straight ❤️

[@victoriaxxxx]

best podcast!!!!❤‍🔥

[@graveang3l]

best time of the week🥰🥰🥰

[@williamcaley-lightingandso870]

Best Podcast Ever!

[@0530evan]

the reason why these videos are so much fun......max/george are so funny.....their stories....etc...

[@sophieannexx]

highlight of my weekend

[@hotpotatoes1248]

george said ‘i speak to myself small spanish’ haha but close enough

[@daniellequain2192]

Love this podcast ❤

[@kurukvv]

why was georges irish accent not that bad 😭

[@0530evan]

thank god for this day and this video.......

[@kendallchappell1676]

OH can i heavily heavily recommend the app *language transfer* for your Spanish learning desires??? It’s basically like a podcast but the instructor guy talks w a student and when he asks a question you’re supposed to pause it and answer, then play to hear the answer; you’re basically forbidden from writing things down and it’s like spaced repetition so you go over things you previously learned in diff contexts which helps w memory I’m genuinely obsessed w it (did the Italian one and working on the Greek and Spanish ones rn, and might try the French one 😅) as things get harder I think it can become good to write out some of it but just don’t specifically use notes while listening to it; it’s absolutely perfect for walks/bus rides/cleaning, and it moves fairly quickly so it doesn’t get boring ( *and it’s f r e e* )

[@lex365]

first! love the pod sm!

[@Evsgx]

My fav podcast ever your both so funny ❤❤😂

[@insertjokehere3430]

why is max's face so shiny.... like a beacon of light

[@EddieGarton]

I've never been more disappointed than I was upon hearing that George will likely not start an onlyfans account. 🤞

[@Ewan.Mcwilliam]

The producer should be the next guest

[@jship5119]

i was screaming at a spider when max said SHOT THE FOK OP

[@todorchiplakov8813]

oh I love that video and I do remember it max is a silly little boy

[@katalinc1194]

I live in Korea and I’m from the UK and Pocari Sweat is big here too, it’s a grapefruit electrolyte drink 😊

[@Atchikaru]

lmao why is Max extra annoyed in this one

[@amelianorton4869]

Oh I love that video and I do remember it. Max is a silly little boy

[@ellodiecollins5561]

I also used to have fits when I overheated as a baby 😂 no longer have them but I’m always too hot 😂😂

[@violethell411]

[@lucy_2511]

[@coreyrock66]

[@seensomewhere]

[@jmae3263]

FYI grandfather is abuelo ✨

[@niamh4442]

I’m so excited to hear about Tokyo💀💀

[@cutedkkvkd]

why’s max got a personalised jumper😭🤬

[@marycasey780]

If you like the who horse is that video you should see when a bat gets stuck in the same lads kitchen

[@m.donez8]

this is the most entertaining podcast i’ve listened to, keep up the good work boys 🫡

[@Zoe-tp4dm]

❤❤❤

[@Cameronglitched]

I wish these 2 weren’t holograms :( that’d be cool

[@Mr_.G]

Oh and she wants to ride Gorge into battle! Right then. Off you pop. No more complaining about ppl not being interested.

[@Kitanahearts]

The little smacks in the box wank video ended me

[@catherinetipping9316]

I need a fan on to sleep every night too

[@sia7051]

I’m almost certain it’s not racist to put on an accident when you are literally speaking that language. If anything I think it’s way more respectful if you actually try to use the correct accent.

[@Kitanahearts]

If George’s grandad was so good at shooting he would’ve been a bike

[@Abi.H69]

Yippee

[@dingo7774]

If georges grandad was so good at shooting he woukd have been a bike 😂😂

[@Chloe-dv9hf]

babies commonly have febrile seizures, meaning when they’re too hot, because they can’t regulate their body temp. it’s not a condition lmao dw

[@megan6568]

“Who’s horse is dat” - Tadgh Fleming. Max u silly little boy but George the accent is lacking a Kerry twang

[@toukachuu127]

if georges grandad was so good at shooting he would of been a bike

[@soniablaggan4123]

if George's grandad was so good at shooting, he would've been a bike.

[@sophiejohnsxn]

Who’s horse is that

[@callum9999]

"Why is there no movement to save the Otters?" - You do realise this is the country that herds dolphins into a bay and then slaughters them by hand with big knifes, turning the entire sea red with blood!? Japan is glamourised a lot, but there is a hell of a lot of dodgy stuff happening there.

[@Zara.m16]

[@spagellie]

si muere, acepto que es mi culpa

[@maxicupcake]

What is George's sexuality? Because I thought he was gay until Max talked about George liking a Spanish girl - is he bisexual or straight? (just curious)

[@elrose4612]

he’s straight :)

[@maxicupcake]

@@elrose4612 lol. Did not realise that until now 😅…with max he talks so much about guys that at times he seemed to be on the same boat as him😆

[@niamhstalkstoomuch]

if george’s grandad was so good at shooting he would’ve been a bike!

[@elea97]

Tbh the only thing I have to say about this episode is quite frankly if George's grandad was so good at shooting, he would have been a bike. Sorry to be so political, but this is just how I feel.

[@geeooo]

If george’s grandad was so good at shooting he would have been a bike 🫶🏻

George is a Tory confirmed

[@Mims118]

Yes toff vibes off the chart

[@natlou608]

On the last podcast maxs boyfriend made a comment about before he met max and before they got togethor he used to comment on all of georges videos and had a huge crush on george and wished he was his boyfriend etc etc but it was quite a harsh comment to say to max and infront of the cameras knowing there doing the podcast... you could literally see on maxs face it had wound him up, pissed him off and made him upset... from that moment max hasnt been the same with george all hes done is make digs and harsh comments to george... i understand maxs point if thats wht hes doing but it wasnt georges fault he unfortunately got brought into the midle of a random conversation and comment that was made by maxs boyfriend ... he obviously did it to get a reaction and wind max you can see in this podcast somethink just feels offish...come on guys your friends!!! Fuck boyfriends they come and go friends stay forever....do not let comments and tit for tat behaviour wind you up max your amazing. You and george xx

[@zz-ih5xe]

...they clearly have a friendship where they can wind each other up/make jokes, just went to japan together and ended the episode talking about how much they enjoyed spending time with each other lmao, what are you on about?

[@natlou608]

@@zz-ih5xe maybe watch the podcast what im talking about then youll no what i mean. Im not meaning to be rude i like them both but maxs boyfriend was out of order with how he said it...smirking and trying to get a reaction from max its not fair to throw george in the middle i looked well uncomfortable and didnt no what to say then it just went awkward
