My Brother, My Brother And Me: MBMBaM 251: Cycle 2.0

May 12, 2015 4:44 AM

We hope you enjoyed the format of the first 250 episodes of My Brother, My Brother and Me, because we just threw that format right in the garbage. Are you ready for the next generation of comedy-advice fusion?   Suggested talking points: Chaz: A Talking Dog, Cleaning Up, Spelling Bee Battledome, WWJCD, Brand Ambassadors, Wizard Swears, Closing Time, Blazer

Here's hoping someone makes a game of spelling bee battledome.

Secret Travis joke of the week, when asked for a suggestion for the intro speech for the spelling Bee: Spell you later!

Justin mispronunciation of the week: Brand ambrassador.

I thought the spelling bee question was kind of weak sauce for a Yahoo (c'mon Ira Ray), but the Spelling Bee Battle Dome stuff was some of their funniest material in a while. Not sure whether to give them bonus points or a penalty for passing on some obvious Sai/PSY goofs.

Wizard swears was fucking magical. No pun intended.

I can't help but feel the show has entered a Golden Era after they got started on The Adventure Zone. I don't know if that's the reason for the resurgence in quality or something else but my GAWD have they been on a roll for the last few months.

Also: anyone going to the show in Seattle want to meet up beforehand?

You could build a whole comedy sketch around mugglefucker, like Samuel L. Jackson is a detective working for Hogwarts, or something.
