[@TheRealBobbyMC]

All the new episodes since they started making them again are great. That said, the initial period where they debuted independent of Headgum was lesser because it was just Jake and Amir in a vague location with laptops. I noticed it but didn’t REALLY see the difference until they started posting here and, most importantly, using Headgum as the new playground. Jake and Amir need their side characters and reasons for special guests to show up, and without CH there was a limit to what type of episodes they could do. Now it’s a full on sequel series with full and consistent canon relative to the original series plus the new kids. This episode in particular may well be the first time they directly addressed what Headgum does specifically. They’ve introduced the other employees slowly but this is the first CH scale episode where it fully addresses the place they work and their responsibilities within it vs what they actually do which is argue and make everyone else uncomfortable. That dynamic with their coworkers is what the initial new episodes lacked magic wise.

[@KameronArcher]

The tiny insecure Jake cameo at the end is great. A top 5 quick cuts for me, really funny jokes that I relate to

[@hannes2927]

"The second great war" and "i have to teach you a fire based lesson", you guys are still hitting home runs

It’s almost as good as “Fuck it I’m Going Fishing Instead” is for a screenplay

[@MrBleepbloopblah]

The punchline of Jake switching from the straight man and saying "Well then its mine; I thought of it." might be my one of my all-time favorite payoffs.

[@Yrenne]

This might be my favorite of the reboot episodes, the wartime radio bit killed me haha. Also love the sudden insecure Jake turn at the eleventh hour

I actually think this arsonist Amir arc should be expanded. It's a great bit

[@acgm046]

And to think it all started (as far as we know) by him throwing lit matches on people while they were taking a dump

[@ids5621]

I really wish they're given some sort of lore explanation on why and how the Jake and amir characters decided to link back up to work on a podcast network. I mean Jake used to tolerate amir because of work, it wouldve been cool to get some story driven initial episodes to set up the new stuff. Like why even work with dude again once he got out of there for years lol

[@roshana110]

The shows never been about continuity. It’s like saying “they need to explain how Amir’s dick grew back after the finale”

[@TBakerXD]

​@@TBakerXDI'll never get that weird rhyme out of my head for as long as I live

[@ids5621]

​​​@@roshana110they actually literally acknowledged his chopped off dick in one of the new ones so that's a moot point. I've been watching since like 2009. Some of the joy of those original years was actually the fact they had real stories and continuity that the comedy was framed around. Of course comedy can break continuity for the sake of comedy, but this has literal no set up. Every office change in the original series had a miniseries establishing it. How great was the story when they first moved office and amir had to get used to working away from Jake. Great comedy, and story telling and putting the characters in a new setting was new territory. This is all new, a little intro few episodes of Jake and amir linking up for this business idea could've been gold

[@SteveJohnson-ht6kv]

Don’t say anything negative. All the circle jerking divas on here will burn you.

[@non_brewed_condiment]

If Amir said "Phyillis Diller is here" after Jake said "you roasted me" it would have been the greatest callback of all time

[@ibrahimbraima4178]

This, as per usual, is amazing. A real barn burner

Combined a lot of good tropes from the show - like a bit of recap, bit of a silly “Amir does something crazy off screen”, Jake gets injured, and theyre both batshit crazy. The arsonist runner is genuinely hilarious! Also i love the continuation of the podcast thread started the last season! The lore episodes / subtle arcs always intrigue me! WOO! 10/10! : D
