There's a lot of kids who think they're magic for some reason.

One of the interesting side effects of listening to The F Plus regularly is that you start to look back at the famous occultists and spiritual gurus of history and realize that their poo poo isn't terribly far off from the ramblings of a typical episode's subjects.

Looking forward to hearing the recording. Was worried that the crowd would descend to the level of “so drunkenly obnoxious that Lemon had to yell at them to shut up”, like the last live show, but it sounds like we’re in the clear this time...

That ep was just bonkers. How do you even read that stuff without imploding, I tried reading the doc and my eyes just kept sliding off the words, it was impossible.

The Intern needs some kind of award for “Best throwing the episode off-the-rails” moment. I broke out laughing in the middle of the gym.

Like, 5. It for sure is the demarcation line for when F Plus does 'gross stuff' instead of just 'weird stuff' but considering it's all consensual and just poorly written descriptions it's fine.

It is a funny episode though!

Yeah, I would say it's less gross than the other episode from the same doc-provider: "Eat Me Drink Me" (which was one of the hardest episodes for me to listen to).

more podcasts imo

At times, it seems like so many new episodes from so many podcasts have come out that I have an insurmountable backlog left to watch. Then, the weekend comes or things are slow at work and suddenly I've listened to everything and have to dive into the F Plus back catalogue. (I probably need to start adding the Extra Credits back catalogue into the mix on those occasions.)

I can't believe people get the name of the internet show Extra Credit confused with the name of the internet show Extra Credits.

I do occasionally see people post about Extra Credits in the Online Creators thread and get confused for a while, wondering when the podcast started doing youtube content. I have no idea why I occasionally call the podcast Extra Credits. My lack of sobriety may have something to do with it.

A question I had, given some of his "accomplishments" covered in the episode: Did Chris Cantelmo actually go to Yale?

I would consider it more likely than not that he did undergrad there (apparently Yale makes you mail in a paper form to verify if someone matriculated there, and I don't need to know that badly).

The difference in the benefit that your average undergraduate gets in a school like Yale vs any other college comes almost entirely through the connections those students make during their time in Yale, rather than the quality of the education itself. A buddy of mine who got a math degree from Harvard put it this way: When you go to a normal college you meet people and make friends. If you're interested in pursuing a particular career like being an architect, someone you meet studying architecture may have a parent who is an architect who can help you get your foot in the door somewhere. With Harvard (or Yale) the same kind of thing happens, but you're running into people whose dads are senators or presidents.

(Of course, once you get into graduate programs the equations change quite a bit and getting into a good program vs a bad program can have a massive impact on what you learn and can accomplish. But if Chris Cantelmo had actually gotten a Masters or PhD there is absolutely no way he wouldn't have put that fact in every single sentence he wrote.)

Maybe talking about nerd thighs on some random site online until you get banned is some kind of initiation ritual.

It kinda has the feel of a long-running troll that different people will pick up because it's recognized as a forum meme. Like, just a regular troll on the forums will sit back and decide that today's the day they're going to take a shot at doing a nerd thigh post.
