Sometimes I wish there was a way not to have the episode names show up. That reveal would have been amazing had I not known the episode title.

I usually think that but knowing what the Colonel Sanders episode was going to be and how long it took Gareth to figure it out was incredible.

He doesn't even do talkspace ads anymore their wall of ads just seems to be growing. I prefer to think of it another way: they don't have ads break-up the show and put them all up front in a convenient location for you to fast forward through all of them at once. I appreciate that they do this.

I wrote in once asking Dave to do it. I'd hope he would as it's a hilariously corrupt story

edit

if no one is familiar with it and likes old timey baseball stuff

basically the Cleveland Spiders were a National League team that started out in the old American Association (no relation to the American League) and transferred to the NL in the late 1880s

they had a pretty good team and finished second in 1895 and won the post-season playoff championship

in 1899, the owners of the Spiders bought the St. Louis Perfectos who had spent the last 2 years in last place in the National League and uh, operated both simutaneously. yes this was perfectly loving legal in the 1890s

the owners looked at the Spiders and the Perfectos and were like "hey if we trade and combine the best players from both rosters we'll have a super awesome team and leave a really lovely team"

so they traded all the best Spiders players to the Perfectos because gently caress Cleveland they could make more money in St Louis, and let the farce that was the 1899 Cleveland Spiders

the Spiders set the low watermark for just about every major league record, with the asterisk that this was technically before the modern major league agreement and world series era, so the Mets/Marlins still get some more shame

they could barely draw more than 200 fans to their home games, which led to all of their opponents refusing to travel to Cleveland because they would lose money on the trip due to the poor gates

this is why they are the only major league team to not only lose more than 130 games, they lost more than 100 games on the loving road because they were forced to give up homes games (a major league season today has 81 away games)

after 1899 the Spiders were formally folded and left no major league baseball in the city of Cleveland

this with a few other teams being kicked out of the National League left a whole bunch of cities with no one to root for. Shortly after they immediately went crazy when the Western League expanded into their cities.

a year later the Western League renamed itself the American League and then things got reallllllllllly interesting but thats another topic
