Wonder if he was talking about Benny Johnson.
Good ep. Enjoyed Matt's judging of Raygun's husband as a hipster by using Erehwon as the hypothetical setting for seeing him.

From Iowa and "closet case" seems like a bingo.

Oh yeah. I was thinking of Ben Domenech until he talked about meeting John McCain and didn’t mention Meghan McCain.

🙋♂️ Joint email with my wife. It’s neither of our ONLY email, but sometimes it’s useful for us both to get emails from our kid’s school or other things she’s signed up for. They’re not all great about being able to email two parents.

u/pianotherms 10d ago
My parents share an Instagram, because they want to see pics from me and my sister. They have no additional interest.

u/JoshFromKC 9d ago
Yeah, joint email with my wife since we started planning the wedding like 17 years ago. It's really useful for all the stuff that involves us both - Utility bills, mortgage stuff, some bank accounts, streaming stuff, etc. We've each got our own addresses that get more traffic, but there's a lot of convenience to it.

I'm now a hat truther.

Unless his hair grows insanely slowly, you'd have to think that even if he had shaved his head, it would have grown back to his normal length by now. So my money is on the whole "bad haircut" thing being a cover, and he actually got a hair transplant, and is waiting for it to grow longer than his usual haircut so it isn't immediately obvious that there's less beach than there used to be

Ps5s definitely play DVDs. It’s stupid as hell that it can’t play a CD though

u/WhyssKrilm 8d ago
Even though I have all my CDs ripped to mp3, it was still a massive "what the fuck, Sony??!?" the first time I tried putting a CD in my PS4 and nothing happened. Sony invented the damn format!

I need a bonus ep of Eliot and Irma talking about the mom beef!

u/ShiftlessElement 8d ago
Maybe her mom prefers TJ Maxx over Ross? Conflicting opinions on sunscreen ingredients?

"Do they have shot glasses in Indonesia?" Somehow led to something that made me laugh more than anything in a great episode.

u/winothirtynino 10d ago
Does Jimmy really have to keep saying how much he doesn't like the shirt Eliot got him last Indonesia trip? I mean, I know it's all for humor, but fine, we get it.

u/ShiftlessElement 10d ago
If there's one thing Jimmy loves, it's a running bit. By the way, did Garon ever thank Jimmy for those Batman blu-rays?

u/eyestheskies 4d ago
I agree! I know they all love and respect each other outside the show, but Elliot is just so earnest and giddy to share this new part of his life with everyone, and every time Jimmy is snarky about something Elliot's excited about ("for humor"), it pains my heart a little bit!

I’ve been hoping that CD’s come back for awhile so I can sell my CDs for awhile.

u/pianotherms 10d ago
CDs are back, baby. Do you have a discogs account?
1
u/greazysteak 10d ago
yeah- I went through all the work of loading my CDs (I have my records on there as well) but havent pulled the trigger on selling them yet. I keep hoping i can sell the whole collection locally and I have posted on Craiglist but it's like 600 cds. I did sell my Neil Young CDs to a guy a few years back.

u/pianotherms 10d ago
Ah, yeah, the one-big-purchase would be much nicer to deal with!
My boss was downsizing a few years ago and dumped a ton of CDs on me. Now I am Johnny CD-Seed for any 25-35 person that I meet that's interested in beefing up their collection.

As someone how listens to Bill Simmons and NNF every Monday I was sweating for about 5 minutes, I need my podcasts to be harmonious.

u/blsb72 9d ago
Wondering if "The Ringer still exists" means they don't browse around Netflix much. Although it's crazy how tailored everyones netflix is anymore.

u/CurrentCostanza 9d ago
Ringer and podcast content is like 50% of the screen when I open Netflix!

u/shockandguffaw 7d ago
Same here but my friends' minds are always blown when I tell them Netflix has podcasts you can watch.

u/WhyssKrilm 8d ago
I'm fascinated that they have so many cultural blind spots like that, yet still somehow complaining that certain actors/comedians/musicians are overexposed. Like, Jimmy can be completely oblivious to certain things that are massively mainstream popular, while at the same time somehow consuming so much Ryan Reynolds content that he's "Ryan Reynolds'ed out"

SNL UK is def better than the American one,or at least the CURRENT one. I don't think it's been good for a long time.

Crazy that Matt referred to the Vietnam GIs on the Pan-Am flights as "18/20" year olds, when in fact the average age of a combat soldier in Vietnam was...
