I was ready to call time of death on TAZG partway through this episode, then Fitzroy suddenly turned into a potted plant and now I'm back on board.

lol I read this post after listening to the first part of the War With Grandpa intro and thought, "Sure this intro is a little weird, but is the OP just overreacting to the intro, or does the episode get weird?"


I've listened to the rest of the episode.

I like the concept and I hope the boys continue experimenting

We were all complaining that they all sound tiredand worn out before

And this sounded like the boys were more energised but with a bad concept. I'm okay with taking mbmbam being taken to strange new places

The fact that it was a whole episode watch was definitely critical to the joke, and Griffin gradually realizing that they weren't going to have a real episode was really great.

its like that episode of the Giant Bombcast early on in the sites life where they did an episode, realized it didn't record properly, drank a bunch of beer and then recorded a second, truncated episode that was mostly off the rails

I just wanted to follow up here, after listening to the whole thing.

So, I didn't find this one particularly funny. BUT! I agree with all the goons applauding them for doing something different, and I'll definitely be back next week. I mean c'mon, it's a free show and I usually like it a lot. It's okay if there's a week or two that I don't like!

I assumed this episode was sponsored all the way up until they said NOT to go see the movie because it's only in theaters right now. And back when I thought it might be sponsored I was a lot less thrilled about the whole endeavor. I know they dunked on it a lot, but I guess I was imagining this agreement where their publicist was like "we have this opportunity for you to do a sponsored episode for The War With Grandpa" and they were like "Only if we're allowed to say whatever the gently caress we want" and the studio decided to take that risk and said okay.

But yeah...even with an agreement like that in place, I don't think "literally don't go see this movie" would fly

Hey, I was one of these people, and I will say after this episode: my opinion is unchanged. This episode ruled.

e: I think the Totino's Variety Hour really destroyed some people's concept of what sponsored content is.

I feel like I see a lot of comments in the thread about sponsored episodes, most of them are probably tongue in cheek. But other that the Totinos and... Casper? episodes they haven't actually done one, right? Extreme Restraints back in the day? I think they would make a sponsorship explicit but maybe that's naivete on my part.

e: like I don't know, wouldn't it make it into the liner notes?

You have to disclose all sponsorships or you're breaking the law.

HAIL TO THE VICTORS!
Advertising disclosures are required by law. If they didn't disclose that this was a paid endorsement they are either in violation of the law or goofy boys making fun of a dumb movie.

I wish they'd done an Extreme Restraints sponsored one, those were the fuckin funniest Money Zones. But I don't think there was a whole episode devoted to it like the Casper and Totinos ones

Also while Totinos taste terrible I will always love them for the gift of Second Life, Second Chances
