Rebecca Mullins - They brought him in as a "guestspert" a while before Hamilton came out. It's kinda funny to hear him talk about Hamilton before it blew up the way it did.

[@theodorevaysberg2710]

i love him so BAD

[@SuperKatieThe2nd]

what part is he talking about? "Unless, unless"?

[@Paroex]

Basically, when they're discussing a question from Yahoo answers or their listeners, and the brothers seem to be stuck and can't think of a way to solve the problem, one of them will say "Unless..." in a low and expectant tone of voice, the others will repeat the "Unless...", and then they propose an alternative (and usually absurd) solution out of left field. It doesn't sound funny described like this, but when you hear it, and anticipate the inane suggestion that will follow, it's an experience.

[@SuperKatieThe2nd]

Paroex so is that bit in older episodes or newer? I've only just started listening so I've only heard really the newer episodes

[@Paroex]

It still pops up every now and then, but yeah, it might be more prevalent in the older episodes. Same thing with Griffin's and Justin's musical jingles that they improvised for their sponsors, or their Extreme Restraints (sex toys) sponsorship which made every Money Zone break into comedy gold. You have hundreds of hours of comedy gold in front of you! I've been thinking of making a compilation of my favourite goofs all the way back from episode 1, but that'll be a massive undertaking, and clock in at several hours.

[@sosayweall_jpg]

also in the musical he's referring to when he says "unless" and Jefferson/Madison/Burr respond "unless?" in the song "We Know". Just in case you were also wondering the part from the show as well. and yeah it's a way of sort of extending or one-upping or subverting a bit by the bros. Usually because something absurd is suggested and then dismissed as being absurd.. "unless.... unless?"

[@powerfulandintimidatingwor1899]

What song is he talking about

[@Pablo360able]

@Joseph Delahunty “I'm your oldest Democratic Republican, Thomas Jefferson.” “I'm your middlest Democratic Republican, James Madison.” “And I'm your babiest Democratic Republican and 30 Under 30 media revolutionary, Aaron Burr.”

[@blakethompson-dodd9874]

So he definitely got "Wait for it" from Psych, right?

[@emcarpio]

GREAT JOB!
