----------------------------------------------------
Jake Johnson (New Girl, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Self-Reliance) and Gareth Reynolds (The Dollop, also on New Girl) don't feel qualified to give strangers good advice. Most of their friendship over the last 15 years has been based around dumb bits, but they do (for better or worse) want to try to help people out. Like your friendly local bartender or your tipsy uncle at a family gathering, Jake and Gareth are on the caller's side and trying to help.

[@nephrotoxick8]

Wow 58:33 her song is actually so so so good!! Rock on Val!!!❤

[@evaoliker8837]

Agreed!

[@partofme87]

this guy dropped the ball, he coulda been dating a talented musician, thats dreamy af

[@jeffking4472]

Seriously, she's genuinely good.. was not expecting that!

[@valerilohrman]

Thank you!! I appreciate it!

[@Juzhou]

totally agree its such a vibe

[@user-oj3zr3qg6q]

Since they're all our self-declared drunk uncles. The fans should be nieces and nephews

[@igeigeigeige]

I really like that idea as well!

[@robo7643]

Some of us aren't either 😅

[@poeticbruja2893]

​@robo7643 we can be niblings!

[@karenamyx2205]

​@@robo7643 Right.....

[@amberlybbert-miller9722]

I like it, I like the non-binary “niblings” the best though

[@jareds5520]

Whoa Val is legitimately good! You all should try to get her hooked up with Vampire Weekend, now that would be a win!

[@LoveIsAll88]

Oh totally!! Really good idea!!

[@swgreen1975]

Val’s song at the end was fantastic. Hope it does well 😊

[@beccaparker8504]

Love it and her song was a banger. Will say she said the sleep over was platonic so maybe the sweatshirt was a little mixed signals and he could of maybe brought up the relationship in a way that wasn’t weird like “ oh yeah this is my girls favorite song” but over all dude never made an actual move on her to lead her on.

[@sydneysawyer1493]

When Val brings up New Girl at the end and Gareth says "Our Show" 😂😂 cracks me up even more because ive watched New Girl probably 10 times all the way through and i still for the life of me cannot remember Gareth in an episode 😂😂 I'm sorry Gareth I still think you're the best!

[@kittawa]

He's the security guard at the preschool that Schmidt's daughter Ruth attends. He answers Nick's phone. It's the episode Godparents (s7e05).

[@sydneysawyer1493]

@kittawa ohhhhhh that's right! Thank you 😊

[@Rob9942]

Man the song was a banger honestly! What an episode!

[@mitzebender4679]

Way to go, Val! Love your energy and courage, and the song is fantastic! Thanks guys for helping Val and for the followup!

[@LandoPro49]

The bleep made it sound like Jake was calling that guy a bad word lol. "Hey f****r!"

[@ryantorres3311]

The song is so good and it actually makes a perfect outro. 🔥🔥🔥

[@jacobj297]

You guys are so awesome to the guests. There’s many examples, but showcasing an entire song for an aspiring songwriter just to kind of help give her a win and put a solid silver lining on her situation is so great. You could’ve linked it, you could’ve played a snippet, but you made it the entire outro.

[@TheCbizzle10]

Honestly one of the best intros to date 😂 love when kevin participates 🍻

[@briandaitzel]

Shut up! The song at the end. I love this podcast!!!!

[@kelseyferro]

You this guy is missing out! How cool is this chick! Songs great!!!!

[@loganswanson7554]

Hot marinara soup boss needs to be stopped

[@nicocrinkleburg]

16:53 “your arms are tired” we need Gareth back on TYSO in a one-on-one! I’m dying to see that.

[@LoveIsAll88]

I was thinking that too!

[@nephrotoxick8]

😂 I absolutely love the little scenes and act outs . They are so good !!! Appreciate that they put out 2 episodes!! I have been spamming all my friends with this podcast cause I need everyone to witness the best podcast in America 🎉

[@Kokopuffs1028]

The number 1 podcast in America (; (don't look it up) 😂😂😂

[@loveleap]

That song was so good! Louvena the Scout got a new follower!

[@hwall5]

Val crushed that song it was great! I'd also like to commend her for taking that leap it's not easy even less so in the modern dating world. Shout-out to Kevin that one liner about people who pee their pants a little being the demographic had me cackling. A slight request for the social media manager any chance we can dust the cobwebs off the Instagram?

[@ShaakunthK]

I think you mean demographic. People peeing their pants being democratic is... 😅

[@hwall5]

@@ShaakunthK lol that is exactly what I meant. That was a typo on my end😂. Thanks for catching that!

[@h00liganismo1]

I got nostalgia pangs of my younger, more earnest self listening to the first call - meeting up with a group of randos to go to an eclipse concert is something I would have done instantly in an earlier incarnation. Loved it. Keep it up guys

[@ExplainedThroughRap]

Pretty ace song from Val, not liking Parks and Rec is a red flag so it all worked out for the best!

[@Sergeant666]

As im watching this i get the notification Gareth and Jake are on Tiger belly! Oh, what a wonderful day

[@partofme87]

oh hell ya! bobby and gary are so funny together

[@NP-wq3rc]

The song is so good!

[@amberlybbert-miller9722]

My husband Mike is a mechanical engineer, and while I love the guy, he overuses the phrases “the fact of the matter is” and “i.e” in conversations. Also, if you need more of an idea of what engineers are like, search for “Dilbert the knack” lol

[@Dream_of_Duckie]

just followed her on Spotify wow that song was so much better than I expected

[@iambear.6526]

ew spotify

[@mollynesbitt3605]

The BIGGEST crime this podcast has committed is not allowing Gil Buchanan to do the entire MeUndies commercial.

[@Kokopuffs1028]

Ahaha I agree!

[@drajcl]

Some super sweet reassurance during the follow up, love these guys

[@yohaanant]

Always a pleasure, gentlemen.

[@sudds3201]

This song is perfect credit music

[@emmelinecoker4235]

Absolutely love that song, Val!! ❤ You are so talented 🎶

[@sirtorchington]

So dope sharing Val's song it's great!! You guys are so fun

[@zulmita91]

Her song is sooo good!! You guys are doing the lords work here!

[@SarahRosaEsq]

Please never stop!

[@user-db9it8ep2q]

literally in love with val this song is ssoooooooo good

[@noellejohnson9822]

Children in mines & you should throw it in the ocean to Jake’s genie in the bottle 😂 Gareth’s riffs are top tier.

[@andyclamps0533]

Great episode! Killer track at the end!

[@valerilohrman]

Not sure but I heard that song comes out everywhere on May 31

[@h00liganismo1]

You heard it from someone very close to you, I bet…:)

[@CM-pf1xc]

Love how much the guys are so invested in helping her ask him out 😂😂😂

[@jessicaisrael4767]

I was expecting a corny acoustic number but my jaw just dropped. she wrote and produced a great song in only two weeks.

[@anthonyjoe8417]

That song is so good!! Fook Dat guy!

[@chrisschell87]

So when is the indie movie about the podcast come out? Already got the montage song for it

[@erikabaez5743]

Love this podcast!! The song is rocking ❤🎉

[@dianavargas5942]

Let’s go!! Great pod!

[@spgale]

12:26 "I mean he's a mechanical engineer so he probably gets, I mean he could get any girl he wants" Best caller opinion and reaction from the guys so far

[@JETBLASTIX]

Always a pleasure, Gentlemen.

[@yohaanant]

Always.

[@ashvice_advicewithash]

DOOOOODDDD that song though!!!! Had me in all types of ways 🥲🥲🥲🖤🖤🖤 Definitely checking out more of her stuff as soooon as I’m finished writing this comment 💯💯

[@sherrillrene4240]

Song at the end is everything ❤

[@AmaliaAlexieff]

The caller ought to find a way to bring Gordon Ramsey to his restaurant to tell his boss "Bill" off about the crappy winter dish

[@tornilcrants7780]

Val's end song was amazing!!!

[@ravenswind6653]

Love the song! Great vibes

[@ovrlandlord]

Yall helped promote her music that's so sick!!! 👏

[@LoveIsAll88]

Val!!!🎉 fudgin good song! You are awesome so inspired by your courage and heart

[@DM-en7hk]

The song is actually pretty good. Are you guys going to do a dating show with her? (Sorry Kevin)

[@valerilohrman]

Honestly would be a dream if that happened

[@DM-en7hk]

@@valerilohrmanWait, are you the caller? If so, good luck. I hope they do that. And I’m glad the answer from the dude wasn’t that he was disinterested-just that he was taken. Nice KZbin page and congrats on the song.

[@88kylesperhour]

Fabulous song!!

[@chelseajohnson4091]

Great song Val!! 🎉

[@jhersey100]

Love the song!!!!

Okay love her song!! Go Val!!

Val's song is awesome!

I love Vals song!!!

[@brianoh1024]

Here from Tigerbelly giving this a first listen! Can’t wait!

[@sassycass0893]

Loved Vals song

[@LargoRicardo]

The idea of making errors intentionally to throw off the client is a classic. We call those “decoy errors” in the biz. And by “biz” I mean my condo.

[@navneetwarrier]

Brendanaquits!! Great song at the end.

[@miche_amico]

Glad Val took a swing! She seems adorable. Better to know he's not available/interested. I'd say she shouldn't invest too much in them staying friends, that could get in the way of her finding someone else she's interested in. Just move on.

[@frantzc.-qk2ew]

Dude, that song's really nice

[@blangum]

v into Val's song -- consider me a new fan!!!

[@joaquinfonseca927]

Loved you guys in Tigerbelly!

[@gthetree1]

Since Jake and Gareth are the drunk uncles giving advice and the caller is sitting at the bar while we hang out in the back pretending to sweep up while listening in, I think we call ourselves “The Help”. It’s a single word but also can be used as a plural.

[@michaeldurrill494]

ok but has anyone been able to find the song for download anywhere?? Cant seem to find on Spotify or Apple Music!

[@user-bo9wp4fr7y]

Love you guys, love the Pod...Gareth has a beautiful head of hair (especially for a man of his age) and should never wear a hat! It ages you. When the ads come on without you wearing a hat, it looks almost like a completely different person. Or...screw my opinion and wear whatever the fuck you want 😂. Love you guys and thank you for providing me with much needed laughter everytime I watch!!

[@kittawa]

Total Eclipse of the Heart is an especially perfect quick comment because it's actually a love ballad from a vampire musical written by Jim Steinman. It felt like a fun extra layer for a Vampire Weekend concert.

[@valerilohrman]

Omg I did not know that. They actually played that song right before the concert started. The lore for all of this is insane

[@polareb16]

Val! Damn good song! 🔥 That dude definitely missed out.

[@jamiejacobsen9836]

This song rocks dude

[@KGchannel01]

Great freaking song from the singer songwriter guest!!!

[@26days]

the follow up 😭

[@sebastianperez92700]

What’s the name of the pizza shop!!!!! I need to know

[@karlabaudelia5474]

Listening to her music asap

[@monticue21]

Very cool song!! He's missing out 💁🏼‍♀️

[@malinoscarsson9362]

Ohhh, that guy was freaked out by the intensity, I actually would be too😬 Sometimes you just have to let things be; when he didn't respond to the video it was 100% clear he wasn't interested. You don't need additional confirmation. And sending that video, I'd think that person was obsessed with me and be creeped out. Who knows, he might have said yes if she just sent a text asking if he wanted to hang out? Cause I'm not sure he was telling the truth about him dating someone, it's just the easiest way to reject someone🤷‍♀️

[@nikkiaraujo1840]

When do we get this song on Spotify!?!

[@emmelinecoker4235]

It's on there now!

[@daanimus]

Nice haircut, Gareth. No joke here, just looks good.

[@Sergeant666]

Since theyre basically psychiatrists and most of the calls are MAD! we should be called PATIENTS

[@robo7643]

There was one bleep of the dude's name that didnt have a black box 😂

[@GardunoBoss]

Yes chef 😂

[@Kbwintyy]

Is the song on Spotify? It’s v good and I want to add it to the playlist!

[@emmelinecoker4235]

It's on there now!

[@alexandrabones3592]

Can I please be invited. I am very awkward and would fit in well. Can bring 3-7 engineers.

[@h00liganismo1]

😂😂😂😂

[@user-lj8tc1ic7o]

So…. How do I find more of Val’s music!

[@valerilohrman]

I’m on Spotify, Apple Music, etc! Louvena the Scout. The song comes out May 31!

[@Dmarieyeeebb]

Songs a banger

[@gbgadd7968]

Ok, but the song slaps

[@iambear.6526]

I feel bad for Val. Sounds like she dodged a bullet, dude not even telling her he was seeing someone.

[@turkdiamond]

39:01 call in Jon Taffer.

[@karasalovitz4179]

Gravy boys

[@user-tt7zj8ii3v]

i have a crush on gareth

[@user-kh4je2ch4d]

The chef sound like the tik tok guy from the sound "lets go... lets fucking go... i guess"

[@beenthearcher]

omg cody ko

[@rachelcassandra9]

Wish she mentioned Jake and Gareths name in the song lol

[@valerilohrman]

Honestly I should have! The only real reference to the podcast is technically “radio” but it kind of works lol

[@boldbileg]

Why does Gareth always match the couch he's on?

[@Biotoze]

Yeah boo on that guy. Val is better off without him. I loved having the call and follow up in the same episode.

[@DM-en7hk]

Bring Rachel and Olivia back!
