There's more to finding a character's voice than just applying an accent and a good voice doesn't necessarily need one. I trust Griffin will get there and find a way to make sure we are undeniably hearing Remmy, or else whoever he plays next in the next one-shot campaign.

e: As an example, I find Justin's expression of Irene to be pretty great without just blowing it all out, like Taako started off as.

I've heard those criticisms about the Glass Shark voice before, but I've always pictured the voice coming out of this guy from Boggy Creek 2

There's a ban on quoting Glass Shark on the MBMBaM Appreciation Facebook group because people complained that it's racist. Also no one is allowed to compliment Justin on weight loss because it's implied fat shaming or something. It's a weird group.

Can’t win for losing. “Glass shark” is one of those classic introductory bits. No need for context, just a funny rear end clip to explain why the show’s so good.

Man, I'm glad I left that group when the boys stepped away from moderating it. I know Travis used to personally approve any posts that appeared on it way back in the day, but it kinda started to slip once they let someone else moderate. It's a cool place to go if you want to post or look at Adventure Zone and Pam Body Garf Head costumes, I guess.

A real hellraiser


I left when someone posted a picture of his dick in a sock that was kinda like a joke they had that week, everyone yelled at him to take it down and he was like "Not unless one of the brothers personally asks me, I know they would like this" and then it was still up a couple days later.

I felt the same way. I assumed that "thinks Nadia is a demon" meant that Kardala would be firmly anti-Nadia, and every interaction between them would be a confrontation or near-confrontation. The rapport that they have actually developed is much more welcome.

'thinks Nadia is a demon' is really vague and on its own it sounds like she actively would hate/oppose Nadia. It was instantly cleared up when it was obvious he meant that from a 'divine' kinda perspective where yea no poo poo Kardala thinks that but she also just kinda thinks demons are dicks who are into weird stuff but just during character creation it sounded worse than it was.

yea if it wasn't right after Travis needing to clarify that his character was just kinda a dick and wanted to push Remy instead of an active dislike it wouldn't have come off too bad but with that it sounded way more aggressive than it was.

He could literally just affect a British accent or something and have that be his character voice.

I'm guessing that hearing Griffin try to keep up a British accent would make the show literally unlistenable, unless there's I'm forgetting some evidence that he can actually do a good, not-ridiculous one. Actually that's probably true of any accent.

Isaiah 34:7, just like Dad said:

7 And the unicorns shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness.
Mind, that's the King James Bible, and the word they translated as "unicorns" probably-maybe meant the now-extinct aurochs.. Or something.

In the latest episode of MBMBAM, Griffin said he hasn't seen Up and assumed it was about the old man finding his wife. At this point it's probably safe to say someone has linked him to the first ten minutes of the movie and he has shed some overdue tears

They found the right role for Russ and have him as a VIP they have to escort and he is not allowed to do basically anything at all.

His stream reminds me of that scene in Monkey Island where due to the fixed camera you can only hear a bunch of stuff happen behind the scenes elsewhere.

Obviously every McElroy is a big cornball softie but Clint's just such a sweet dude. His Twitter is like 80% him retweeting and complementing fans who tag art/cosplay/whatever with a show they do and the other 20% is just him being a Very Nice Old Man online.
