RIP Jimmy Buffet 🙏🙏 a rising French jazz icon

[@laurenyork6095]

words cannot express how DELIGHTED i am that they managed to get James Buffett himself as a guestpert and i can only pray that griffin put justin on blast to him about his ~case of the mondays~

[@gilly_the_fish]

I think that is actually from Jimmy Buffet's SECOND appearance as a guestpert, not including the Red Carpet special (ep 400) where they temporarily interview him before the premier of his musical. Wild

[@startush]

the guys' budding friendship with Jimmy Buffett is one of the funniest running themes in late episodes

[@ilana3783]

startush you say that but I love how close they are with LMM. Especially because, if I remember my mbmbam lore correctly, he reached out to them first.

[@wdfinbllngsly]

@@startush they made him their adopted podcast dad just because of how fucking much justin talked about him

[@QuikVidGuy]

@@ilana3783 I think he wrote the "Unless..." "Unless?" reference in Hamilton before he reached out, too

[@Sardonyx-gem]

God the brothers really made thousands of people into Jimmy Buffett fans huh

[@em.1633]

One of those people, checking in to confirm

[@mutedtulips]

My parents have always been fans so I was kinda born into it but ye

[@mizslcarr9795]

Sadphonics truly

[@fishmasmouse]

[looks at my cat, literally named Jimmy Buffett] ...nnnnnnnnnnooooo, absolutely not

[@eminempreg]

the fact that I literally only went to jimmy buffets concert cuz of mbmbam. It was an experience of middle aged drunk white people

[@oliviamanning2344]

does jimmy buffet sound like clint or is that just what all old white guys sound like

[@The2ndnothing]

Yes

[@aliamcbride]

Yeah for a second I thought it was Clint pretending to be him

[@startush]

i think you're really onto something here

[@Spottedleaf14]

all three of my white granddads sound like that ngl

[@marsisgay936]

That’s exactly what every old white men sounds like

[@laurenmkolodkin]

I'm not convinced Jimmy Buffett and Clint McElroy aren't the same person

[@MoronTheFirst]

They are the same person only Jimmy Buffett is 5 inches shorter than Clint. Tiny man.

[@very_much]

I mean have you ever actually seen Jimmy Buffet and Clint McElroy in the same room together?

[@QuikVidGuy]

@@very_much Probably!

[@GrixieKong]

“Où est le Sel” really does sound like a French art house film.

[@katsdraws]

I wasn’t sure if he was saying “where is the salt” or “where is my salt” but the only difference is “où est mon sel” for “my” salt. and that only raises the class another level

[@antiquebeast]

Ya know, it still works for his whole image. Could turn it into singing about where his salt water is ;) In a very art house desolee way

[@rajavlitra]

T'AS VENDU

[@pepesilvia429]

Reminds me of a De La Soul song that's been playing on repeat in my brain for years: "Quelle heure est-t'il? Il est midi. C'est l'heure de déjeuner! Qu'est-ce qu'il y a à manger? Des saucisses!"

[@haalfnhaalf]

I have become a better person for watching this.

[@mmangalisomasinga432]

You used to be Haalf the man you are now.

[@haalfnhaalf]

@@mmangalisomasinga432 touché

[@CassReidIsSomeone]

As someone who was informed that I was conceived due to a Jimmy Buffett concert, this is the greatest thing between the vibes and the lines.

[@myfbusters]

truly an immaculate conception

[@ap_mess]

"due to" and not "at" is a hysterical choice of words friend

[@myfbusters]

A P nobody knows how long the lingering sensual effects of seeing The Buffett in the flesh can last

[@jacobgraham8363]

A P maybe her parents met a jimmy buffet concert, which is the start of a great love story if I ever heard one

[@brooklyn__________]

Congrats, that’s dope

[@mezwit]

RIP Jimmy Buffett, may he stay wasting away in Margaritaville

[@buxtehudemuzik]

I hope you found that shaker of salt. Rest in peace Jimmy 🏝

[@analoren4745]

RIP Mr. Buffet. I hope you're singing french jazz with the angels.

[@katttscratchfever]

I love the fact that Jimmy Buffett gets progressively more excited about singing his songs in French as the vid goes on

[@enkays_den]

I'm glad that not only do the brother have such a genuine working relationship with Jimmy, but he's also humble and good-natured enough to play along with the absolute DESTRUCTION of his art because he knows it's way more entertaining than defending himself

[@mikhaellawalden]

I actually would, unironically, very much like a French jazz version of his songs!

[@sambird7946]

I need some french jazz pronto!

[@aclevername8399]

Imagine being a fan of Jimmy Buffett, and that led to a series of events where you got him to personally improvise one of his songs in French for you and your brothers on your podcast.

[@comicsans2212]

WHEN I REALIZED JIMMY BUFFET WAS ACTUALLY THERE I WMCKSKCKSKFKFKDJV

[@Tig3rbutts]

Rip to a legend, and to the dopest French jazz I ever did hear 🫡

[@PhiTheMouse]

Rip Jimmy B. Islands in the sky.

[@timeladyxx]

the image of the crowd booking it leaving just the brothers behind is genius

[@mariannacross2538]

oh my god that's really jimmy buffet not clint doing a bit

[@avantblarghh7774]

RIP to a real one. Fins up, Jimmy

[@hollyfelis4197]

la villette de marguerite anyway yeah, this is dope

[@spacey-sam]

Rest in peace Jimmy, hope the cheeseburgers in paradise are amazing 🖤

[@50stressballs58]

Repose en paix, Jacques Buffett❤

[@mephostopheles3752]

There was a Jimmy Buffet concert in my city last year and I missed it by being at work. At Party City. Where everyone was buying beach memorabilia. _For the James Buffet concert._ I regret it to this day.

[@very_tired_child]

Rest In Peace, good brother

[@lovelybraintoaster164]

Your sacrifice will not be forgotten!

[@jake51479]

that scene with french margaritaville was actually really beautiful

[@ThatOneIrishFurry]

The amount of sibling energy where Griffin goes to tell a joke and travis interrupts with the same joke And Griffin is just giving the death stare

[@annaking9619]

griffin’s face at 1:01 when travis steals his bit is Sending me

[@kendramoore176]

Rest In Peace Mr.Buffett

[@wblakekimber]

RIP the eternal beach bum

[@Essie623]

Rest in power to les chèvre

[@LishB1011]

I'm watching this the day after Mr Buffett's passing, and I'm extra sad for the brothers right now.

[@ProbablyJules]

I love how you captured so perfectly the exact moment jimmy went from thinking this was a stupid joke to being really into it

[@corinnwestfall]

the boys must cherish this memory so hard 🥹🥹🥹

[@jnjckt]

NOOOOOO! I HAVE TO KNOW HOW THE BOYS ARE!

[@luckyystrikerr]

Fins up, Jimmy ❤

[@Dolthra]

The MBMBaM/Jimmy Buffet romance is one of my favorite, if most unexpected, relationships in entertainment.

[@Atuchy]

1:33 the fact he has to go through a Amethyst-from-Steven-Universe-style pile of random crap to find his instrument is incredible.

[@honkhonkhonkhonk2334]

REST IN POWER JAMES

[@thesatelliteslickers907]

You can talk about committing to the bit but Jimmy buffet went above and beyond

[@peachking8564]

Rest in peace to the man the myth the legend

[@rajavlitra]

rest easy jimmy.

[@Berrybamboo112]

The way I didn’t know who Jimmy Buffet was until I started listening to MBMBAM

[@DaMaLoJo]

When i heard the news about Jimmy Buffett, this was honestly the first thing i thought of. Thanks to him, these boys, and this animator for bringing such joy

[@jasdrawssometimes4660]

Jimmy buffet has very constant dad energy

[@jasdrawssometimes4660]

Same goes for Kenny logins and steely dan

[@theridonculesknights]

Tbh I would kill for a Jimmy Buffett french jazz album.

[@ChristinaSuper]

"Quick Jimmy, there is a rabid raccoon loose in the concert, get everyone out!" "Oh, I totally got you." *plays French Jazz*

[@tortle285]

Rest in peace Jimmy, what a guy.

[@snootigan]

I've just now realized that I have never seen an actual picture of Jimmy Buffett

[@doggyspeak]

I work next to a Margaritaville restaurant and if I get to hear french jazz everyday I think it’d be really cool

[@faroshscale]

Rest in peace bud :(

[@evannahgray]

Your art style is *my favourite*. It's so good! And this was a good bit to animate too. Made me laugh a lot when I first heard it, and as well here

[@startush]

thank you!!!

[@spacemermaids]

This art injected me with serotonin

[@pablofierros6975]

Dropping in to say its criminal that the artsy Margaritaville France anime hasn’t been made yet

[@tommyottoking]

RIP Buffet man

[@Lavarpsu10]

Ok but like ACTUALLY I would listen to this for realsies

[@quertie420]

fun history fact: this bit would've fuckin killed in post wwi france, bc french teens & young adults got really into jazz as like a counterculture thing

[@rancidtown]

Rip James buffêt

[@katttscratchfever]

THE MCELROY BROS AWAKEN THE FRENCHMAN WITHIN JIMMY BUFFETT

[@EternityRealm]

I’m sorry, is it common knowledge that Jimmy Buffett knows french?!

[@startush]

i would say it's not a HUGE part of his brand but my mom remembered "Chanson Pour Les Petits Enfants" which is a 1979 song of his with a french chorus

[@smanmmo6735]

He's from cajun country so of course he would!

[@GuyNamedSean]

@@smanmmo6735 and he's definitely got the accent when speaking French

[@coletonwilcox]

​@@startush That one's always been a favorite of mine.

[@chrisshimizu8656]

the moment at 1:00 is so good like peak sibling energy thank you for making mbmbam animations

[@mudkipaficionado7547]

[old man clap]

[@SethMarcell]

You really caught the magic with this one

[@deltaloraine]

Dude i gotta send this to my dad, he'd love it lmao

[@danmur15]

i cant believe i forgot that they had Jimmy Buffet as a guest. So sad to hear he passed away.

[@blackbearbuilds3104]

I love how Jimmy is so funny an individual that he can keep right up with the mcelroys 🤣🤣

[@TheBoyerCannon]

this was my “2023 top track” according to KZbin recap 🎉

[@startush]

omg that's WILD

..... don't comment about dream daddy, don't comment about dream daddy, don't comment about dream daddy

The one dislike is from Al Roker.

[@leaffinite3828]

Ok i gotta say i return to this video like 10 times a week to listen to that one verse of french margaritaville and imagine a full version

[@woconutty6238]

Your style has such a pleasing aesthetic to it

[@gucketjug]

jimmy was real cool here

[@kquinnvandevelde1384]

I am going to send this to my friend who speaks french but doesn't listen to mbmbam without any context.

[@KitCabaret]

The fact that not only is there an animatic of this great moment, but that it's this gorgeous AND fully colored, is the best surprise I've had all week

[@slimefood4045]

I love "jimmy Buffett headquarters"

[@heyodaddio4961]

Jimmy buffet need to come on mbmbam more often, their vibes just mix so well together!

[@jonahlyons4646]

Rip Jimmy 💔

[@jonnj9701]

I cant believe this is the second fucking time they've had James Buffet on their show.

[@armawillo]

WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE JUSTIN’S HAIR

[@Greenwickpress]

I really loved this interview. When he took out the guitar to actually sing a verse, that was so cool!

[@The_Qure]

If the McElroys didn’t already have an amazing dad, Mr Buffett would’ve swooped in the very SECOND they started making MBMBAM

[@FORRESTtheunoriginal]

who knew Jimmy Buffett was self aware enough to go for a dumb bit like this. I guess he kinda has to be, he is Jimmy Buffett after all.

[@lizyconyers7009]

I need more Jimmy and McElroys animations. I grew up with Jimmy Buffett so their interactions with him make me so happy

[@daftodil589]

jimmy buffett is their other dad dont fight me on this

[@WateverWatever04]

Why did I take 7 years of French and Jimmy Buffett can speak it better than I can??? 🤣

[@M-_-O]

The sound booth person shrugging was it for me

[@taakotuesday]

This truly is one of the most magical moments in podcast history

[@taylorfuller8067]

Okay but no joke IT FUCKING SLAPS

[@nicksteele5613]

This is absolutely AMAZING I love this so much

This is amazing! Le margarita ville part had such gravitas, hahaha! Really enjoyable art and mood, awesome work

Ive taken to humming this mindlessly around the house. My sister doesn't get it. I have no intention of explaining myself.

[@marymills3581]

the way you draw the boys is ADORABLE (I LOVE everyone's hawaiian shirts). also I'm amazed by the little finger details/animation, like jimmy playing the guitar and the lady dropping the salt on the table... super smooth and really well done!! the bits where it switches to moody sepia film are especially wonderful. dat shading. and all the teeny details...! like juice's foot tappin at 1:51, so cute! just love love love this, awesome job man

[@DataRew]

The fact that this exists just blows. my. mind.

[@eldabys]

the fucking.... the pencil french music video... this is perfect

[@mattbachmann4311]

Man, Jimmy just played along with them so well. RIP to a legend. He made me a fan of him for sure.

[@faegentry7131]

Jimmy Buffet going along with french versions of his song and improvising one is true chaotic energy and I'm here for it
