I don’t speak for everyone, but I do not mind at all that you pre record! I just don’t like that you bring up that you pre record every episode lol.

[@krystalcheena]

I agree! No need for you guys to let us know it's pre recorded, we know by now this is common for podcasts. I'd rather have an episode per week than the possibility of not having one because of scheduling conflicts 🫶🏼

[@Pompomm173]

This lol

[@lilypichon8221]

Right at least we get an episode

[@wendythebaker]

Yeah don’t tell us

[@bayleespangler9589]

agreed!

[@user-rm9ze6wx9v]

matt’s been very passionate abt these group dinners for the last year or so

[@tiffffjane]

Love when Matt is deep in thought and just stares directly into the camera 😂

[@ashleyb8965]

Matt absolutely kills me with how seriously he asks Erin if she was offended by glee lmao

[@Lua-ij6ic]

carly trying to secertly mouth the girl that doesnt pay but you can clearly see her whole face bahahhaha

[@tiffffjane]

You don’t know people’s financial situations so demanding a bill to be evenly split is not the way to go. I’m usually the one to put my card down, making sure the server is getting a minimum of 20%, then I do the math so no one feels uneasy about being forced to pay more than they budgeted

[@TheShannyleigh]

Wait…the Gypsy Rose portion where Matt just peace’s out! 😂 I know he’s probably leaving to blow his nose or pee or something…but the fact that he’s so annoyed with Mike for not know who Gypsy Rose is and then just isn’t there is amazing.

[@ashleyleah4408]

Mike’s laugh when Carly says “I think I like this little life” is literally the best. I love Mike’s hard genuine laugh so much🥹

[@MaritzaGarcia]

I actually LOVE when Mike is clueless about certain things. It like gives me the excitement of telling someone something for the first time.

[@ChromeOfTheFuture]

Scrolling through these comments trying to figure out who is the scammy girl 😂

[@acf456]

who is it 😭

[@Meritsajasso]

Mannn let me know

[@AllSoChloe]

matt getting frustrated with mike is exactly what i needed i need him to STOP PRETENDING HE DOESNT KNOW THINGS 😭😭😭

[@naomi5563]

I SECOND THIS!!!

[@amylindsay-merry2651]

Yes!!!! He does that all the time..

[@Fishyface2424]

I SAY THIS ALL THE DAMN TIME. MIKE IS SMART... STOP ACTING STUPID. it truly infuriates me so much lol

[@lilypichon8221]

Frustrates me so much

[@emilymontoya234]

When mat said “out: lying” and looked at mike I died🤣

[@cheyennepavon4565]

I don’t mind the prerecording at all. I love that you guys go through the effort of changing outfits when recording back to back and the matching is fun and cute.

[@ayawalid]

I wish Mike wouldn’t get so annoyed or offended by things that individual people do, that won’t effect him in any type of way - I’m not one to wear visible branded clothing, but I also couldn’t care less if that’s how people choose to spend their money 😅

[@stephanieinteriano4488]

matt's sweater is so princess diana coded, i'm obsessed

[@Kaylakoo225]

Owala needs to sponsor y’all, me and all my cousins are fans of the podcast, and we all bought Owalas because of you guys💜

[@sophiesbubblebookd]

Matt King in this episode was so unhinged 😂 cry laughing

[@heidi08021]

Good influences has quickly become my favorite! I look forward to it every week!!

[@TravFletch]

That room has seen that gesture many times Mike but not for this podcast👀🤦🏼‍♂️🤣 18:15 🤣

[@kaitlynbye]

okay we need a lip reader for 27:13 lol

[@valeriaclark1878]

Yessssss

[@toddjohnson1418]

Seems to me it rhymes with…Manielle. Lol.

[@nataliekoelling663]

I think the name has two syllables lol

[@nataliekoelling663]

Her lips looked like it started with “Sh” not sure, I could be so off lmao

[@violettawright7539]

i saw “jac” 😬😬😬 scott’s gf but no assumptions we’ll never know 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@auuutuuumn]

As a chef myself, I spend so much time on trying to make certain dishes an entire experience, from the smell, to the look, to the taste. It warms my heart to hear Matt’s respect for trying to keep the food how the chefs intend it to be eaten. Thank you so much ❤

[@divinefiinds]

Only thing I look forward to on Tuesdays, listening at work lol

[@GoodInfluences]

yayyy !!!

[@angelaroasena1919]

I've been in the hospital with my mom the past couple days, and you just light up my day, I'm crying laughing and I'm just 20 minutes in 😂 Thank you guys! ❤️❤❤❤

[@GoodInfluences]

wishing you and your family the best 💛

[@Averyrosiess]

my brain could only focus on the cat clock in Carlys bathroom when she was do the ad read LOL

[@jasonhunter2819]

22:43 Erin: dolphin noises 😂😂😂😂😂

[@PattyRodriguezMakeupbyPatty]

“I’ll tell you after” is OUT. We don’t need to know. Edit that part out

[@ryleigh760]

I just feel that it’s not a big deal.. it’s their podcast not yours

[@Silverlining1313]

Such a great episode !!!!!

[@krissiodette6369]

i like to start a new book before i finish the next one bc at this point in my life I'm too excited to read all my tbr's lol. but it helps with the momentum! also letting yourself take breaks in between reading with other activities but always keeping ur book in the rotation!

[@taylorcwimberly]

Thanks Matt, for the shoutout to servers! I'll finish listening after my shift tonight 💰

[@BrandiLM93]

New mom here and you guys make these exhausting late night feedings so much better ❤

[@lydiasullivan7188]

22:33 so funny, the chaos that it caused. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@A_4814]

I agree with Erin!! it’s the bathtub scene for me too. i was eating at the time too, huge mistake

[@kailynpeterson5027]

Best part of the week, thanks guys!

[@GoodInfluences]

💛💛💛💛

[@hayliesmith6230]

I used to work at a restaurant owned and operated by a chef with multiple years of experience in fine dining, she would do the same exact thing that Erin said the chef at the jewish restaurant did. When people wanted something changed on their food she would always put it on the side and have them try it. 9 time out of 10 the customer ended up liking it

[@queen.ayeesha6420]

i’m glad yall explained the gypsy rose thing because i was so lost and cbs looking it up so ty 😭

[@nazaretfogue]

I love this podcast 💙🧡

[@Shelby__Larae]

When you can CLEARLY see the name Carly was mouthing to Erin ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️

[@Lua-ij6ic]

did she say laylen i couldnt get it !!??

[@Zade_Rose]

What's the name?

[@ayawalid]

I think she’s saying Jacquelyn (Scott’s gf) 😅

[@lilypichon8221]

I couldn’t figure out the name 😩

[@TheFirstPlacePod]

AHAHAH YEAH jaqulene

[@quadmft]

Didn’t get any notification for this! Not sure why. Great episode :)

[@GoodInfluences]

hmmm…

[@marcusberryy]

As someone who works in the industry I agree with Mike. Sick of waiting for the check. I had a table ask for the check as soon as food touched their table and ever since I've done the same.

[@mylittleds]

I had no idea about salmon in Norway! I’m going there in June and will remember that. XX

[@emelymarte]

Was an image added????? I love it!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@Bevrina]

Carly saying don’t get her started on Heroin 😂 iono if that’s what she meant but made me lol

[@Drelelelel]

Your mum jokes are in guys!!!

[@CRCC830]

look into candle warmer lamps!!! they slowly melt the candle without burning so no risk for fire and less VOCs from combustion

[@Dheal]

The best episodes are the ones where you guys digress; let the conversations flow like a (non-podcasting) group of friends hanging out. I don’t know why Mr King is stressing about staying on topic.

[@ElizabethLeeA]

Candle warmers, Matt!!

[@sevohnalexis]

omg matt explaining that line from school of rock just blew my mind!!! never realized that

[@emelymarte]

Whoever cut the outro as Carly was singing, count your days 😅

[@NeverSaidIWasAGenius]

OMG I hate a lot of music at restaurants. I almost had a panic attack at a brunch spot because the music was so loud and everybody was screaming over each other.

[@rubyb3621]

“It’s not interesting, it’s FACTS” 😂

[@zaneta286]

Not me swooning at Mike saying "babe" :p

[@sherry1253]

Want to be blown away----watch All in the family, a sitcom from the 60s/70s.....at your age your jaw will drop.

[@chloewebb9929]

mat was so valid in the frustration towards mike. i love them all but i don’t understand how this is mike’s job and he never knows about anything.

[@elizabethdadds7727]

a lot of nurses and other healthcare workers wear crocs! they aren’t the cutest but they’re so comfy. i can imagine a nurse wearing the Barney ones and working with kids

[@agbrickss]

Matt where did you get your sweater?! I need outfit shots in the pod !

[@Kennnayyy]

Mike drives me insane. I hate the way he delivers his opinions. He is so dramatic and aggressive with every single topic as well. Idk, not for me.

[@lulafrey5830]

carly looks so good in olive hello

[@wendythebaker]

I love how all the “outs” are just all your guys’ pet peeves 😂😂😂😂😂

[@MariannaRobbins]

Btw y’all might want to cut out 27:13 because I can clearly tell who they’re talking about 😅 unless y’all don’t care bc calling them out is in hahaha

[@sandracvetkovic2583]

Who is ittttt

[@alooooooooos]

whooooo

[@Zade_Rose]

Whoooo???

[@taylorkobinski1411]

WHO I CANT TELL

[@brooklynsonger]

SAMEEEE

[@ilysibalexandra]

i feel like Mike might enjoy this but the time stamp is almost perfect, just one second off from being 1:23:45, still pretty satisfying though to get that close lol

[@bluelife8548]

So weird of mostly in america when going to dinner you're asked to leave and can't linger around…im from europe (belgium) and we lovee to just linget around and keep ording drinks maybe and just take our time when we're at a restaurant 😭

[@bluelife8548]

The check won't come if you don't ask for it

[@hihii3902]

The office isn’t that bad if you watch it as if the writers are self aware. They acknowledge that he says problematic things but he’s also the person with the most power in the office so nobody can say much. If anyone’s the true villain it’s Toby for not doing his job as HR to keep the boss in check

[@danichesney1876]

To go along with the "seriousness" of internet culture... is that why tone indicators happened? I see a lot more of /s at the end of tweets or posts that seem so obviously sarcastic and im like 😒 we really need to do all that? But at the same time i understand why it could be needed for specific individuals so idk its a toss up 🤷‍♀️

[@OnYa20]

In: calling for a massively overdue ceasefire. Out: supporting a terror state.

[@saml7930]

Thank you

[@saml7930]

Also mike deleted his video on Instagram when the news first came out

[@shireenshahidi10]

PERIOD

[@benjidog1514]

My bf also had no idea who gypsy rose is 😂

[@lydiadyer7763]

if any of them recommend anything like a book, makeup product, clothing, etc i really do consider buying lol i trust their judgement

[@esostoopid]

LOVE the stach, Matt!!

[@dayoayorinde4099]

I swear I’ve heard Erin tell the story about the pickled things before (I thought on this podcast), but everyone’s reaction to the story made me doubt that 😂

[@lilypichon8221]

Hell nah I’m paying for whatever I ate only 💀💀💀

[@laurenashley90]

I second the Oklahoma travel! I live in Tulsa & she’s such a hidden gem, so many different worlds squished into one.

[@manicmondaypodcast8008]

Also live in Tulsa. Ain’t nobody from LA traveling to OK and having a good time.

[@laurenashley90]

@@manicmondaypodcast8008 hahahaha you ain’t wrong!! 🤣

[@coleb8837]

I was born and raised in NJ and left when I was 26 cause BF got a job in Oklahoma. We lived there for about a year and a half. No where near Tulsa, but I had visited. Saw the center of the universe and left lol but I fell in LOVE with OK. I adored it while we had the pleasure to be there.

[@TheShannyleigh]

Lighter eyes are more sensitive to light. Also, sunglasses always, overcast or not, will prevent wrinkles. Kids, wear sunglasses always!

[@jocelynmstanton]

Has mike every been assessed for neurodiversity? I have ASD (aspie but we don’t use that anymore) and so many traits are on point.

[@kitkat88owen]

56:53 is Carly singing the Cody Ko song? 🤭🤭

[@haileyjohnson8750]

Not here for the candle slander, candles are a vibe and are most certainly IN

[@st14782]

Not me going on 2 cruises this year 😂 I know Matt says it for the dead, wed, & over fed BUT it was a gift and how often can we go to Belize and Mexico for free lmao

[@jeankinkade96]

i fucking HATE the QR code menu at restaurants! like going on a date and having to stare at our phones is the most off putting thing ever and then god forbid they get a text and is checking their phone the whole date bc they're started up this convo when it would have never started if normal menu's were present ugh i hate it lol

[@kyrmer518]

trust me it sucks to be a picky eater. I just want to go out to eat and eat like a normal person. 😭 I hate having to modify something so I can eat it.

[@threeqtrtime]

Erin didn’t get the memo to wear green… jk 😅😅😅

[@BigHughJazz]

I like when Matt pulls a ridiculous outlandish story out of his ass and finishes it off with “I THINK that’s true”

[@jujuboo_]

Love Rick glassman

[@_diamondfarts3910]

Bro i hear and make so many ur mom jokes lmao

[@kels1315]

I legit had to do a double take because I thought Matt was taking a shot at like 3 minutes

[@melindagilfoy5748]

Check out Mrs Browns Boys. It is a british comedy and so funny. I would love to have Mike review this show🤔🤔🤔

[@nataly.2183]

yo matt you want my peacock login? lmao i’m so serious

[@eiseishere]

Mike keep the beard lol

[@missm2374]

Out: Matt’s mo

[@threeqtrtime]

Omg I fell down the rabbit whole and watched the movie and the dirt scene was waaaaay disturbing

[@A_4814]

out: saying everything is cringe

[@jeankinkade96]

yeah i hate 24 hour fitness only bc it is not open 24 hours

[@2542lauren]

Yikes on bikes!!

[@Chris.317]

1:18:49 I responded to the prompt with Out: Unfiltered I really hope that Erin was showing Matt at this timestamp

[@coopd97]

Danielle 27:24

[@beatrizcunha635]

Saltburn is definitely not as surprising as people have made it out to be. the actor is good but the scenes aren't that shocking. I’m a hater and it’s in

[@gracemoore6138]

Prior to Covid, did Americans not have the card machine brought to them in restaurants? It's INSANE to me that Americans hand waiters their card and let them walk away with it...

[@abigailgallagher6090]

someone buy Matt a candle warmer

[@ashleyduckworthyt3224]

They jinxed it and now they are making an Office reboot… NOOOOO

[@caitpenn7]

Carly diffusers are bad for your cats!!

[@haileyjohnson8750]

I don’t know why people care it’s pre recoded, it’s literally fine

[@queeninthestars]

mike is lowkey so annoying😭 the worst takes

[@queeninthestars]

wait i live in oklahoma

[@nalco2345]

Erin Caesar dressing literally has anchovies

[@haleymoore1457]

Another out: Mike being pretentious. The way he maneuvers through a conversation acting like he’s better than the others because he doesn’t know something about pop culture is not cool. He’s not going to get an award anytime soon for spending his time doing something he deems as productive.
