Love Forest's confidence in repeating what white and black are over and over, and being completely wrong.

[@opethandhash]

lol came here to say this

[@joeb588]

You should have got Rick Glassman for this topic

[@FitzyyLives]

He should have gotten kyle hill

[@nateg3284]

Jim was really top decking for answers on this one

[@krisbilly77]

Because of the mic i thought the shirt said GILF IS DOPE! lmao ;p

[@preston9189]

I thought this topic would be really dull but I'm glad I was wrong, very enjoyable episode!

[@HappyCandyManClown]

The topic is a reach for Jim.

[@lpmwalker_of_sky1903]

I think Jim just wants the episode to be relatable to all listeners, not just those knowledgeable about the subject. It’s a fun episode.

[@liamnevilleviolist1809]

50:35 - Dan's legs going up as he's laughing ... I thought I was still on the IDKAT Ventriloquism episode for a second there!

[@johnjerby]

A fantasy football ep would probably be pretty good.

[@Aztecia]

This is as so good. Jim always turns it up a notch when he’s around another comedian. Such awesome banter 😅

[@FitzyyLives]

Magic the gathering is turing complete. I thought he was gonna mention that. Kyle hill did an awesome job explaining it in a video. Ill link it here....

[@HappyCandyManClown]

Just the social depths you'll have to sink to is witch craft level to obtain cards and opponents.

[@HappyCandyManClown]

I like the concept of the game. But it is a trap that will take your time and money. Some people will become so engrossed they will become detached unless you communicate with them through the game. There was a series before that required the use of the actual player's blood and if it did not seep through the words written on the card to the other side you were not favored.

[@Veggamattic]

Axel Rosenberg Omg...Gold!

[@derheadbanger9039]

I hope the do a livestram of their MTG duel!

[@Joggly420]

Searching Lying bloody coward brought me to this account … Rebel rebel 😂

[@martinseal1987]

Here for the quack joke

[@amandadean2623]

Forrest is a grumpy fun spoiler but without him the episodes would be off the rails nonsense 😂

[@riechen]

Legit is one of my favorite shows all time. One of the greatest. Im 19 but its helped me get that push so i can save/change my life

[@RPRsChannel]

*_Where the hell are they? Is this an AirBnB?_*

[@liamnevilleviolist1809]

59:58 - a missed opportunity for all the comedians in that room: I would've interjected with the call-back comment: "28 +".

[@preston9189]

I like that Jim's go to Pokemon is Squirtle and not Pikachu, haha

[@bnsymons3437]

Jim, you should try to get on Australian taskmaster, it would be hilarious to see you on there! Love you Jim!

[@Matthew-ve7uv]

Great episode. I understand that if you love Magic this could be frustrating, but any more detail would have been very off-putting for people who know nothing like me; this was enough detail to learn but also in a funny framework. And if you already know about Magic -- you don't really need to be listening to this for info.

[@user-kp7xg1yi6k]

Tooling in the improv class.. Did u make thwt up?

[@gabrielj.1215]

Because Jim mentioned it, an episode on flirting would be quite fun. Hearing Jim‘s stories and so on :)

[@ozsuncoast]

Hello IDAT and viewers! My favourite KZbin mob.

[@ShogunPumba]

I wanna see Jim get hooked on MtG and showing up on all the shows maybe hosting game nights live the lot lol

[@thomasthompson5613]

15:36

[@XanNation]

the hero i actually looked for

[@mikey8915]

forest sounds sick get better big guy!

[@user-kp7xg1yi6k]

Whats up with Fletch Land?

[@DiaIect]

My only correction is that people do play for money in more competitive formats, but it's definitely not as good as some other trading card games (e.g., Pokemon) and would be hard to make a living off. Great episode!

[@Nicole-zh7pl]

Yes. And that's ok

[@johndonaghy5674]

This is a brilliant episode. Probably the best. Good people on great form. Everyone happy, healthy and having fun. Ned Kelly will be a good episode, the Australian outlaw 🇦🇺 find someone Jack please

[@teusvandermeij7287]

fasted I ever clicked on an episode. huge magic the gathering nerd here, didn't expect these 2 worlds colliding.

[@user-kp7xg1yi6k]

Naked Gun is a fantastic 👌

[@hagsymcduff1106]

Jim could try letting someone answer his questions sometime

[@buckbaumann773]

Wizards of the Coast bought TSR. TSR was born in Lake Geneva Wisconsin By Gary Gygax and Peter Dobson .

[@user-gm7nj7qp4u]

Glad to see one of the old studios is back. That weird long table is awkward, and it seems like there is less witty banter when you're in that studio

[@dash-x]

I believe this is just Jacks flat 😹

[@P.dripps92]

This is the "how to stay a virgin" episode 😂

[@HappyCandyManClown]

Wear Jordan's when your magic the gathering friend's come over to impress them is #1

[@user-kp7xg1yi6k]

Tasmania to Melbourne...Forrest relax your voice...

[@bobcabot]

...did you write that line yourself?

[@user-kp7xg1yi6k]

I don't know about that.. . .with Jim Jeffries haha

[@SV-tj7mm]

damn why doesn't anyone watch you anymore?

[@user-kp7xg1yi6k]

The Gathering...Dan Black...from long Island....theblast impeov ahow...spelling bad sorry

[@glasscolatv2417]

Do a episode on call of duty and xbox 👍

[@larrynelson4909]

In a word YES first time I couldn't get to the end

[@andrewbeccarelli7613]

The boss isn't paid more? Wtf are you talking about...

[@stormtrooperdylan]

Wrong Forrest, white is all the colors

[@user-kp7xg1yi6k]

What is the topic ? MAGIC F'ing Excellent lol 🤣

[@nartouzumaki8232]

[@williesurles2638]

As a Jim fan this is funny. As a MTG fan this is so frustrating. Luckily I already know how to play, but I feel for the ones that are clueless. Really let the ball drop. Could have at least played one mock game. Where's the production value?

[@wulfgold]

"People pay money to do it but no one watches it" was that a call back to the America's got talent(?) "comedian" guy? The one who's comedy special seemed to be infront of an empty club with audience cgi'd and laughter dubbed? Just checked Schwartzenberg on Corden - 10/10 cancer - this is getting as bad as Joe Rogan was.

[@matthewdavid9039]

Melbourne is no longer part of Australia, we don’t accept it as a city of Australian Culture. Tourists, come to Queensland. The only people that will get offended is you.

[@brendanwoodley7567]

I've been away for 8 months why does Forrest sound like a rake being dragged across gravel?

[@Matthew-ve7uv]

The answer is in this episode. Right at the start. How are you confused?

[@FitzyyLives]

I'd say magic can be very thrilling. So much can happen in a game

[@mr.puckerie4800]

Forrest has it backwards: Black is absent of light, therefore absent of color; If you place every color on a wheel and you spin that wheel, it turns white, ergo white is the presence of all color.

[@markbutler5707]

For someone losing his voice forest talked way to much. Episode ducked . This guy should be in forests podcast about touching manatees .

[@officialsqeek]

This is easily the most annoying episode so far and it's not Dan's fault. Jim was just plain annoying, not letting Dan give a full answer. I honestly don't have much care for MtG, but I got nothing from this episode to even hold my attention. Same 3 jokes recycled over and over, even the liquid death ad was recycled, then stories that had nothing to do with the subject matter. Just have a podcast of shit talking if that's what you wanna do. I'm normally okay with the jokes and rambling, but it went too far overboard in this particular episode.

[@steve1720]

Are you paying for any of this? It's all free entertainment. If your not entertained just turn it off, get off your high horse you are not owed a damn thing.

[@officialsqeek]

@@steve1720 naa the world looks much better from up on this high horse. It's called criticism, I don't want a service that I do pay for to turn from something I do find entertaining into another product I can get anywhere. I like this unique format, but if it's just going to be pointless and unfunny banter like so many other podcasts then I think it'll lose more viewers than myself.

[@moezuniga8714]

Jim does have an annoying tendency to cut people off.

[@MotionMcAnixx]

​@@steve1720He has a right to an opinion and to share it. His comment was on point, and yours contributed nothing.

[@steve1720]

I wasn't trying to contribute anything. I listen to this podcast because it makes me laugh. It would just be nice to have somewhere to go to just laugh but there always has to be a few negative people leaving their negative options on everything.

[@larrynelson4909]

Worst episode ever

[@BINGBORG]

That was great, banter all the way and summat I never knew about, thanks guys 🤡❤️🤡

[@user-kp7xg1yi6k]
