I just wanted to say that I’m a taekwondo instructor, and I reference the McElroys at least 10 times a day to my students. They’ve started quoting me when I say “get it together, juice” to a kid who can’t get their gear on fast enough. The McElroys have made every one of my classes better AND funnier. Edit: I also say “step 1: keep your grades up” when explaining a technique, like a kick. Hey, it’s good advice! The parents LOVE it. I also do the _best_ Jerry Potter impression, and my lil guys’ brains practically fall out of their butts they laugh so hard. I sprinkle in looooots of Monster Factory references, and other silly quips and phrases and whatnot.

52:06 the duality of mcelroy is justin’s “our show peaked and will never be funny again” and griffin’s “we have fully recharged our social clout”

[@dualitysDownfall]

Frankly impressed with Justin's ability to recount the story beats of a film he wasn't particularly interested in and didn't think was very good. I finish a movie and I immediately forget half of how it went.

[@samparr3368]

32:00 is the funniest exchange they’ve had during a money-zone in recent memory

[@faroshscale]

no way the entire first half of the show is madame webb. absolutely no way.

[@awzthemusicalreviews]

Jesus Ice-t and 'Free-sus take the wheel' are so fucking good lol

[@LudyLoomy]

This is the best mbmbam I've heard in a minute honestly had me cackling from the jump.

[@BatmanuelTheCactus]

My favourite episodes are the ones where the boys talk about a strange movie or tv or something for a really long time /gen

[@FirstnameLastname-uu2zf]

How did they talk about madame web for 20 minutes And not bring up the *two seperate occasions* where evil spiderman just got his shit rocked by a speeding car.

[@abbywolffe4114]

Omg I was just about to bring this up bc that's just not something you do in a superhero movie??? That's like if Batman was like "what if I just hit the Joker with my batmobile" and then he ACTUALLY DID

[@scaredlittlebug]

Petition to make Willem Defoe British

[@abj6920]

Every time they start talking about a movie in the intro I pray on bended knee that this is about to be a grampa episode

[@chrislaf]

The war with Madame Web I'm glad they talked as long as they did about it

[@MaskofFayt]

Best part of this one is how Travis just can't get all the Madame Web jokes out of his head and finds every opportunity for them

[@sidhackney8831]

"Ben Parker is in the movie so the movie can remind you it thinks you're an idiot"

[@ThouArtEverywhereAndNowhere]

Oh I can’t I can’t even fucking drive. It’s so fucking funny it’s like it’s stealing all of the air for my lungs I can I I feel like I wanna cry and puking scree its so fucking funny.

[@cogmonocle2140]

I was trying to play a video game while listening to 705 and I could not continue getting my hands to do what I wanted them to during that pizza munch squad

[@BradBo1140]

I laughed so hard with Griffins “beats ass” algo story!

[@cogmonocle2140]

Justin's description of Madame Webb screams "AI-written script" to me

[@AntheanCeilliers]

I want a full War With Grandpa episode every single episode

[@jeremy____5747]

We need to talk about how many actors and actresses are emerging from these superhero movies--Marvel, Sony, DC--clearly, clearly the worse for the experience. We are damaging our stock of onscreen talent with these films and shows.

[@arin999]

won’t anyone think of the A list celebrities

[@jeremy____5747]

@@arin999 Forsooth. I mean maybe it's like this: on one side we have A list actors. On the other side are superhero movie audiences and superhero movie writers. The audiences and writers are laboring under the longtime mistaken assumption that the actors give a shit about the movies they appear in. edit: It's like the way so many of the bosses I have had thought we all showed up for work because we wanted to maximize our core competencies and advance the Mission and Vision. And not, like, to earn money.

[@mookie714]

I fell asleep through most of madame Webb.

[@toricook9124]

i thought for sure at the 20-minute mark that the whole episode would be a Madame Webb episode, and i kind of wish they would do a full 60 minutes of dunking on this really bad flick

[@guygryphon]

Griffin you gotta download the audiobook version of The Feather Thief. I feel like you'd appreciate this odd tale of art, history, theft, and modern day justice.

[@hpalpha7323]

I'm a sad old man who sits by himself, but nobody wants to be my friend because they think I've earned it!

[@linnhuman]

woah

[@XaviersFinest]

I have a few things to say about MadAmWeb: 1) Uncle Ben Parker... should be Ben Reilly, so then Peter's Dad and Mom most likely would not have the last namr as Parker nor would Peter. Whatever examples you can think of for why it might still work has been thought of and it's dumb, just dont. 2) my friend and I watched this at half-speed, which not only doubled the time it took to watch (yikes) but also made everyone and every line delivery seem drunk (yay). It was genuinely so funny and so bad. 3) nothing good about this movie, sony-marvel eats farts.

[@rxttencandy]

why would it be ben reilly...?? ben reilly is peter's clone brother, he didnt exist until well into peters young adulthood.

[@littlefishy1337]

Sometimes you don'twant ads: 37:45

[@MD_the_MC]

I live how this show waits until your completely fed up with hearing about something before they bring it up, can't wait to hear about Jojo Siwa's new song 6 months from now

[@derekolinger8124]

I would rather watch a movie about a super power Pepsi sign.

[@bluemcneil5883]

That treasure show and it's nuances mentioned are the same as some of the inconsistent elements on this fun lil pod like fungalore or food news

[@lexingtonne]

Wow talking about a movie where nothing happens and a show where nothing happens. You gone done it again

[@graceggale]

Meow hahaha. Meow meow meow hahahahaha. Cat world cat world. Me meowing in the brothers text zone. Meow meow meow meow meow. They have to let me do this constitutionally. Hahahahaha. Meow meow.

[@demiefraggle]

I would say that the money the stupid Oak Island show has made is the treasure 😂

[@GoldTheDragonite]
