MBMBaM 695: Snuffling for Gubbins

GET FIRED UP this Friday . . . Monday . . . because we're going treasure-hunting! You never know where you might find an antique violin, or an AI Companion, or maybe even wings with bones.
Suggested talking points: That's Not a Time, Grown Friend without Secrets, Crotch Emergency, Child's Basement Rainboots, Jeremy Lupin, Cousin Fazolis

[@josepeejoestar]

Griffin is right, we are all over here bopping to Darude!

[@theslimjames]

They're more Zombie Nation guys

[@niallgraham9487]

​@@theslimjamesI think you mean TRAV Nation. That's the only nation I'll recognize

[@Levacque]

For real. I'm blown away that Justin and Travis either pretended not to know, or (unbelievably) they actually didn't know about "Sandstorm."

[@spehizle]

Not even 5 minutes in and both Travis and Justin are down like 60 points each. You don't get to be as old as you are and wiff a Darude Sandstorm reference.

[@revolutionarylass5298]

Thank you for expressing my immeasurable disappointment when they started talking about Jason Derulo

[@Ingestedbanjo]

It was a whole meme, "What's the name of this song?" - but I never thought there was anyone left who sincerely didn't know!

[@jackroberts2704]

Travis and Justin were 17 and 20 when Sandstorm came out. It is physically impossible for them to not know it.

[@alexpare4518]

Darude- Sandstorm is like beginner level music reference Ditto is correct

[@Levacque]

Right?? TBH Travis and Justin just kinda made themselves look a bit foolish.

[@zafo999]

I haven't left a youtube comment anywhere in like ten years but I'm here to say Griffin was right

[@tri-angel]

I wish this is a start of a long career leaving KZbin comments it really is fun to leave them

[@Lazarus142]

The nerve of Trav and Juice trying to come down on Grif when THEY are the old men who missed the ref. There's a Darudeness.

[@marymac9303]

Griffin was fucking right. It's so green over here on this side of the yard

[@MsDefectiveToaster]

Travis saying that he would develop ill intent if he came upon Griffin prone over a foam roller is such big brother energy it's almost indescribable

[@andalongjacket]

Griffin is right, and also Sand Me On My Way by Rusted Darude made me absolutely cackle

[@psychotripnerdstuff]

I just love how supportive Griffin is of Trav-Nation. It's genuinely kind of wholesome

[@-eight-]

Agree! I love it when they hype Travis.

[@CrashMk]

Just chiming in with the others. Griffin is right. We all know Darude. Now, I'm pretty sure you have to eat a crow.

[@onescenewonder8904]

Darude is the artist! The song is called Sandstorm! (He's right, I've only ever called it darude-sandstorm, I don't know why....)

[@jacquiecotillard9699]

They were truly in the wrong right now. There was a real Darudeness to it

[@aethernaut1899]

I stand with Griffin, and Darude

[@clovell]

Wondering if TravNation may convert to GrifNation because of his knowledge of Darude/Sandstorm

[@Starkili2]

I cannot BELIEVE y'all tried to blast Griffin because you didn't know Darude's Sandstorm

[@jimahalangel]

Griffin is correct about Darude Sandstorm

[@yungoldman2823]

oh b a b y dont TALK to me about snufflin for gubbins, that shit makes me ROCK HARD

[@adamschaafsma5839]

Yes everyone knows who Darude is

[@RobTunes]

Griffin is right, bless Justin and Travis's hearts

[@OhGodWhatIsThisAah]

Fuck 5:30AM for real.

[@dizzylilthing]

yeah, I try not to bandwagon on people but Griffin is right, this was more of an affromt than even the saddest of libs and the pissiest riddlemaster

[@NoNekoP]

Never have I been more proud and ferally fired up like 5:30 AM children to be a member of Trav Nation when I heard about the grown up companion and waking up to Pop Up Video. I also did that and feel seen and heard for real.

[@jackroberts2704]

Justin might not know Sandstorm, but he did fuse two actors into Hailey Joel Steinfeld.

[@biobiobiobiobiobiobiobio]

griffin is right

[@beebo-]

they didn't know about darude sandstorm. trav nation disband

[@theWeaverofTales]

wouldn't be surprised if there was an uprising and subsequent transfer of power tbh

[@-eight-]

Trav nation forever! We must weather this sandstorm as one people ✊

[@OrinAfterDark]

the darude argument slaps so hard

[@th3g00se]

I cannot believe that Justin and Travis have been on the Internet as long as they have and can't recognize Darude - Sandstorm

[@choicevoiceproductions]

Love this show

[@Trollfeeder1234]

9:31 giving a kid permission and encouragment to yell will get them to do the impossible. From veggies to baths

[@nerdygem8620]

Im glad we're still ragging on the oceangate sub in 2024, genuinely the funniest, most preventable news story last year

[@Lifealope]

Never has a munch squad applied so much to me. A few fun facts: 1. I have driven past Taco John’s for two years wondering what “six pack and a pound meant” ( it is not a new promotion), and now I finally know. 2. Potato oles are just potato rounds with taco seasoning. 3. The McDonald’s I worked at in college did briefly sell bone in wings. The were dry af and awful.

[@kristenm.196]

there was something I loved in this episode and I don’t remember what it was so thanks bros 👍

[@hocuspocusfocus6229]

"Don't worry, we got food from a better restaurant" HAHAHAHahaha that killed me.

[@spacebees86]

Only reason to wake up on mondays

[@littleleakyleakythere]

But I'm here on Mondays :( you wouldn't wake up for me?

[@NateCummings]

If you're a cop; moneyzone ends at like 46:56

[@josepeejoestar]

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I like this comment. Am I a cop?

[@NateCummings]

​@@josepeejoestarI hope not :

[@OhGodWhatIsThisAah]

Only podcast with ads worth listening to

[@joelsavoie8641]

As much as i love the brothers, I hate advertisement and equal and opposite amount

[@theWeaverofTales]

McElroy ads are so often gold, I can't imagine skipping them and missing bits like the Porky Pig one

[@nickmoore8145]

love that both of your two most recent outro bits (sound bath and the fungalore wish) have caused me mild amounts of very different types of stress. sound bath for obvious reasons, but fungalore because now i need to start thinking about what my wish is WAY earlier.

[@kinitstuff]

They really must have just barely been too old for Darude. Just barely missed it. Also that school nonsense is WILD if they're trying to actually establish that, that's incredibly inconsiderate of parents' schedules AND of the kids' sleep schedules/established routines! Also how does Justin not understand or use a foam roller, how is it Griffin that uses it

[@colbyspringer6056]

HOG NATION, WHERE YOU AT?!? OINK OINK, BABY!

[@phillipdangt341]

Hehehe I wished three times. I bet Fungalore had to listen to 'em all too.

[@abj6920]

I've had the worst fucking headache today and just realized the video was looping, I just zoned out at the end and start of the ep

[@ritah8415]

This is the best pod episode 🥇🏆🏅

[@-eight-]

1) Griffin is absolutely correct. We are all jamming to Sandstorm and it is super wild that y’all don’t know it 2) Rusted Darude, Sand Me On My Way just about killed me dead 🤣

[@distortedplushie]

Darude Snowstorm is funny Griffin is right

[@ParanoidYoshi]

"Potato Oles are probably hashbrowns" is both wildly offensive and more or less accurate.

[@LiftMastermusic2024]

Smoking a joint and listening to these three gangstas pimpin it out…. Hell yeah

[@devcrom3]

What was the song Griffin was doing in the intro?

[@CDHarris]

"Sirius" by The Alan Parsons Project

[@thecatlurking]

Liked the Westing Game reference!

[@user-tq5qo2jw7w]

I must see the video of the splits.

[@bradwinders6813]

There was a DaRudeness against Griffin on this day.

[@eggbotheidiot]

I love lupin iii 🙂👍

[@montlejohnbojangles8937]

JUSTICE FOR GRIFFIN

[@taylordiclemente5163]

There's no Cheesecake Factory near me, but I live next to a Fazoli's. Thanks bros for the good news.

[@jake-wu2nq]

I don't appreciate those two corner creeps bashing Darude

[@gwen6622]

ain't Gubbin that guy on The Yard?

[@Trollfeeder1234]

12:10 you just described old omegle

[@Trollfeeder1234]

Or a real version of the pretty patrick show from bee n puppycat

[@natalietipsword9677]

What are the Fungalore wish rules? Are we sworn to eternal secrecy or can we share our wish with others?

[@Levacque]

I think if you tell anybody the wish, it's a similar rule to birthday wishes, but not the same result. Like.. you can't tell anybody, and if you do, the wish modifies. For birthday wishes, it just doesn't come true. But with a Fungalore wish, it turns into a Monkey's Paw style of wish. You're getting dead parents in exchange for massive wealth, you're getting zombie turkey in your perfect sandwich, you're losing your legs so that you can "retire" at age thirty. Basically, you foul the wish. Fungalore adheres to wisher-wizard confidentiality, and he requires that you do, too.

[@natalietipsword9677]

@@Levacque This makes sense to me

[@thartwig]

"heard chef" is the only rule we know for sure.

[@theWeaverofTales]

Do we need rules about it? I don't think that's something Fungalore would be concerned about. It's not like he's going to grant the wish, he just heard it, that's as far as he goes

[@Vrikrar]

The only rules to fungalore is that he has no lore or rules, he simply hears your wish. Whether or not he grants them, collects them, or shares them on Tumblr, we cannot know.@@Levacque

[@jopenhagenlongcut]

Everyone knows who darude is, Justin.

[@littleleakyleakythere]

Griffin is correct btw

[@maximillionchaoswolf]

Griffin is right Darude Sandstorm

[@stephenholt6956]

Rusted deRoot did Sand me on my Way

[@KermitsBadFurDay]

How recent are the audience questions ?

[@littlesnowflakepunk855]

it depends. historically they usually have a massive backlog of pretty much everything though

[@gemstone108]

They were answering pandemic related questions around 2020/21 so I’m guessing it’s a mixed bag

[@geekasauruswreks8789]

Griffin was right. How did both of you dodge the cultural phenomenon that was Darude Sandstorm? It's not an age thing, as some listeners are assuming. I'm a year older than Travis, so younger than Justin.

[@falconstudios146]

Griffin is correct, how do you not know Darude Sandstorm

[@KingOfSpacePrime]

they added Sandstorm to Fortnite, literally everyone knows

[@rubyblooddemonking]

I cant believe theyre fathers and dont know darude sandstorm

[@jeremy____5747]

Public schools seem exactly incompetent enough to plan a special event for 5:30 am. Like, my family has a term for this, we call it "Normal School Fuckup". About every week or two, one of these comes out of our school district: something ridiculous, lame, inconvenient, awkward, not fully thought through, politically correct, etc.

[@yourhighschoolenglishteach8405]

agree. especially when it comes to expecting kids/adults to get up early.

[@Illysi]

Something happened in my brain this week where I expected the intro to say “Travis insists he’s a sex pest”

[@thanaGogical]

that intro song just does not get better
