“You’re a cancer, aren’t you?” -KB “I wouldn’t think so…” Gunnar Henderson really thought Kyle was just calling him a bad dude off the rip 😂😂😂

[@lostwsbf]

KB looked like and acted like a btch the whole episode.

[@stephenjp33]

I love how much Big Cat loves using the “4 AFC west teams” when explaining the luck of sporcle

[@B4781S]

when someone is doing the gauntlet, the booth should have the answers up on another screen so they can see how to spell it

[@johnstrom5910]

Exactly. You think TJ would have figured this out over 500 episodes ago.

[@ryanbarrett5971]

Don’t use logic in front of tj

[@jackowen2025]

Hes clearly an idiot don’t worry

[@shultie123]

God damn yall are mean!

[@phossumz]

That makes too much sense. Big Cat needs it to be TJ typing so that his record can't be broken.

[@Majinrico]

TJ gets so hurt when someone calls him out😭😭

[@zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz736]

He can't handle the heat but decided he has to be head chef. Viva

[@holesauce3303]

yeh wtf was that lol

[@shayreal1853]

Been that way for a min. It’s really annoying

[@teddybruckshot1188]

Time stamp?

[@Jwitzzz]

He gets so defensive at clear jokes and he's like 27. Kinda weird.

[@Marc_Abelman]

Connor Griffin goalie was amazing

[@jgourno]

Laughed out loud at work was hilarious

[@morgantown1]

Can’t wait for Mostly on Monday when they talk about that performance

[@Marc_Abelman]

@@morgantown1me too. Too bad it’s a holiday

[@alexreichline]

Mook put on a disasterclass today.

[@Brickhouse6160]

Which was hilarious. Not saying mook was funny but the team ditching him definitely was

[@jakeyflakes00]

Also know as a weekday

“You’re amphibious” -Orioles guy

[@DoctorPymp]

Jesus Christ TJ maybe let's take a chill pill

[@katiedaly5099]

omfg i just died laughing when nick was talking about if mook had a blind gf and he was like "you better be careful or you're going to lose him... literally" LMAO

[@dylanhough6828]

Anyone else think TJ can be overly aggressive and kind of an asshole every single time he comes on the mic?

[@zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz736]

Sounds like a pouty child everytime he chimes in

[@Dwight2744]

Unbelievably defensive about everything. He's gotta learn to laugh things off and be the butt of the joke sometimes.

[@DavidSoriano-e3o]

Every time

[@tarheelamos137]

💯

[@Soup_is_goood]

Only child energy

[@kim_jung_clinton6330]

Really don’t want to hate mook but damn if he doesn’t make it so easy

[@thecashman541]

Kyle not knowing any baseball players but still knowing gunnar is elite off his personality and swag is awesome.

[@jamesjamison4035]

The Mook hate isn’t just comment haters. He’s just objectively awful and unfunny. I’m sure he’s a nice guy, but he is awful on the show.

[@Fog_raw]

I thought they were joking at first when they said he was a stand-up. I thought he was a production person they were giving a shot at content

[@spamanderson3868]

The Sporcle Difficulties are wildly inconsistent

[@kevinb44]

They kicked Frank The Tank off the YAK because it wasn't working. Now it's Mooks time

[@Dwight2744]

TJ, you gotta stop being so defensive. Just laugh it off man.

[@stanstanley8284]

Cocaine makes that hard

[@jaredvaccarella9761]

It’s felt like Mook’s first month for like 10 months now lmao

[@kevcolli6678]

Bros been getting jumped into the gang every day for a year

[@patrickr2547]

Dan thought they were talking about Connor Griffin for the move, Mook's entire job was a mistake. But that kind of lackadaisical effort is why we love this company

[@brharis2]

@@patrickr2547 other way around, Big Cat accidentally invited Griffin when he meant to invite Mook

[@chillywilly44]

I love that kb does his little wrestler jog everywhere

[@tannerdetschman994]

Big cat knowing he should ban the brass knuckles while also wanting to play with them is the epitome of Big Cat

[@Fog_raw]

Solo mook?? This was the worst content barstool has ever put out

[@jasonbourne8300]

Mook should be getting on the Perth flight sometime soon

[@Cw9531]

TJ can’t take a joke wow

[@gingerman942]

Cause he’s not eating. Gets super cranky

[@bc1762]

Mook is obsessed with voice memos! Buddy is a lost boy

[@macamittens]

Kate roasting mook very funny.

[@ryanbarrett5971]

I cannot be pro-Mook any longer, dude brings nothing and ruins other peoples jokes... and hes a standup comedian?? Jesus

[@aaaaaaaaa470]

Big day for the crybaby crew

[@chrisTeem19]

Why would you be pro-Mook to begin with?

[@MrTanner392]

Mook thinks the hate is all fun and games but he WILL be taken off the yak it’s only a matter of time

[@danielmills7809]

Dan "4 AFC West Teams" Katz

I know everyone has bad days, but TJ not being able to take a joke was shocking

[@gingerman942]

He’s been like this ever since he stopped eating

[@dprooo3797]

53:20 Kate murdering mook LMAO

[@chrisw27272]

Mook segment was brutally bad

Can probably leave out the pre-ad start time in the future? Can’t envision a scenario one person clicks that one instead of post-ad literally ever lmao

[@pattyess123]

You're the goat. Appreciate the pre ad and post ad. I wanted to see that promo cause I'm buying clothing this weekend so I am grateful for everything you have done and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

[@brett2982]

Watching mook actually hurts… I can only imagine his standup

[@Bruins7]

TJ a big baby 😢

[@seancalvin4317]

"It was a hard medium to succeed in" might be the funniest thing said this year on the show. LMFAO

[@ProcessSixersFan]

“I hope that gets you shot” Big Cat’s candid one liners kill me 😂 51:45

[@Nick-jf2qs]

TJ can’t type to save his life

[@codyabbott3863]

Nick was trying to tee something up when he heard one of the orioles was born in ‘01

[@garreTTU2023]

The loser of a knife fight dies on the scene; the winner dies in the ER

[@johnstrom5910]

How is Mook so GD awkward on this show yet he gets up on stage alone in front of people sometimes on a nightly basis and is a "stand up comedian"? How is this even possible?

[@mikewhite2085]

It's paradoxical but my college roommate was like this. Couldn't keep a convo 1 on 1 but was fine in groups

[@alexreichline]

He just reads Nicky jokes off his phone

[@Aaaaa47011]

He reads his jokes off his phone too. It's easy to do comedy when it's open mic. Doesn't mean he's any good. He's not even slightly funny

[@mryanno84]

Because in person people are generally polite, online they’re assholes

[@Dwight2744]

I have no idea. I've never seen his standup but have seen a clip or two and he seemed pretty comfortable on stage. He just has negative confidence on this show and is probably letting the comments get to him.

[@brett2982]

Kate shouldn’t get any hate… I kinda feel bad for mook kinda, he should’ve never been put on the show to begin with

[@all-timealien4483]

Kate is inconsistent, some days she is great like in this episode but others she likes to derail conversations. Mook just has no grasp on the concept of entertaining which is insane considering he’s a comedian and “content creator”

[@kevinwitkos6461]

While talking about “you forgot your kiss”, you can tell KB and big cat are still struggling with the eye contact

[@fatshaq426]

TJ fasts and is just hangry during the show and everyone else has eaten lunch, thats all it is lol

[@Fog_raw]

Nicky smokes is the austin hedges of barstool

I think the knife in the brass knuckles makes them legal just cause its classified as a knife and not brass knuckles.

The mook stuff is just so bizarre because we know Big Cat has the power to remove him so knowing that we have to assume it's an on going bit but I guess I just don't get it? or I just don't care?
