Hi-def stolen valor.
1:10 - Intro - Airport bathroom stolen valor, Patti LaBelle's save file, Permanent barista
6:25 - Email - I recently moved to a little city[Note 2] in Wisconsin with my fiancé(e). Almost immediately after arriving here, I met the mayor. After chatting with him at length on a few occasions, he seems to think I should be next in line for the throne. He says it every time he sees me in town. I do not wanna be the mayor of my town! I have nothing against the town itself or the mayor, but the more I learn about local politics, the less I wanna be involved. I know nothing about tax incremental financing or budget amendments. What can I do to convince this guy that I should not be the next mayor? -- Wary Whippersnapper in Wisconsin.[Note 3]
11:28 - Email - Oh, me? I'm a librarian and I do a lot of school visits for kinder garden classes. Usually, a couple a week. That's the best part of the job. I usually pick out books that I know will make kiddos laugh, and they all seem to have a great time. The problem is, every once in a while, a kid will heckle after a story, out of nowhere. Like, I'll say, "Wasn't that funny?" And the kid will shout out "No!" or "That story was boring." Like, come on, dude. Everyone was laughing and you're clearly doing it for attention. Brothers, how do you deal with hecklers that are six years old? -- Dewey Decimated by Toddlers.
15:53 - With Special Guest
- David Spade introducing Jack Johnson
- Rami Malek introducing Young Thug
- Ray Romano introducing Zwan
- Don Rickles introducing Billy Idol
23:54 - Email - The other night, my brother and I watched that day's final screening of the D&D movie at our local theater. It was good. [On the way out,] We overheard one employee ask another employee, "Hey, do you want any of these hot dogs?" likely referring to the left-over hot dogs they had at the end of the night. The second employee declined the offer. Brothers, should we have spoken up and requested some free dogs? Or would we, as the movie-watching peasants, not have been deserving? -- Cody.
30:33 - Minion Quotes - Run by Griffin![Note 4]
- "Politicians should wear a shock collar that goes off every time they tell a lie." - Justin guesses Elmer Fudd. Travis guesses Tweety Bird. (Answer: Tweety Bird.)
- "I hate snakes, especially human ones." - Justin guesses Bugs Bunny. Travis guesses a minion. (Answer: A minion.)[Note 5]
34:10 - MZ - Zoc Doc saves you a pain in the butt, ad for Let's Learn Everything, ad for Reading Glasses
Demon box feat. little sailor man (src)
37:34 - Haunted Doll Watch - Not a doll this time! Instead it's a Haunted Box - Sealed Demon Inside - Nightmare Spirit - NOT A TOY. The spirit may or may not be the Babadook trying out a new hat.
Audience Questions[]
52:49 - So, my boyfriend and I have lived in our apartment for a couple of years and our landlord is a very nice, odd man. And he has this one particular thing he's done since we've moved in. An example is: we texted him saying we needed a new ceiling fan in our living room and he was supposed to come down last week. And he texted saying, “Hey, guys. So sorry I couldn't come, I had to go to the hospital for a heart murmur situation.” He is fine, no bummers. But as if to prove it, he sent us a photo of himself in the hospital, wearing the gown with all of the wires plugged in. And this is not the first time he's done this. When we first moved in, he texted us saying, “Hey, guys. I can‟t make it to the deep clean of your apartment, I had to go to the hospital for a stomach ulcer.” And he attached a photo of a very fresh scar. ... My question is: How can I get him to stop? -- Shawn (she/her)
The old bird is on the right, new bird on the left (src)
Hot bird with abs, courtesy (one has to imagine) of Paul (src)
58:01 - I have some maybe photographic proof that when my friend dropped their bird off for her parents to watch him that they replaced him secretly. -- Marita
1:04:13 - Hi! How do I ask my neighbor if the turtle that lives in their bird bath is real? -- Angela (she/her). Angela says sometimes the turtle is there and sometimes not, but she has never actually seen it move.
1:09:11 - My father-in-law likes to talk about himself a lot. Anytime we're talking, making conversation, he's gotta bring it back to how great he is. And most of the time, it will come to the fact that he got his pilot's license. And the fact is, I'm not sure that he's flown the plane. And he's gotten to the point where he'll bring it up in almost any conversation. Someone talked about how they proposed to their wife on a fishing boat and he was like, “Oh yeah, I have a 130 IQ. I didn't even finish high school! Could you imagine if I did? And I can fly a plane!” How do I make that stop? -- Cody (a different Cody than the one that asked the hot dog question before)[Note 6]
1:14:33 - Housekeeping
1:16:36 - Jack Johnson Quotes - “I get nervous when I fly. I'm used to walking with my feet.”

On the Perks of Movie Theater Employment[]
- “If you worked the closing shift at the theater we worked at, you could take one of the big garbage bags and put all the popcorn in it and take it home.

- — Griffin
On Minion Quotes[]
Travis: Here's what Griffin doesn't realize. I've been doing this bit for the last like, two years. I've seen some shit. I'm fluent in these. Justin: Travis has gotten some direct messages from some family that has shared some of his less popular opinions. Travis: They're not mine!
- “Y'all, I'm about to hear from some people who have left my memory.”

On Landlord Well-Being[]

- — Travis

Notes[]
- ↑ This live show was performed May 21, 2023 at the Riverside Theater in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
- ↑ It was eventually narrowed down to be Stoughton, WI.
- ↑ The brothers previously fielded a question from a prospective mayor in Epiosde 570 and did another on the ennui of being mayor in Episode 479. The brothers are well-suited to mayoral inquiries, as they were all once declared honorary mayors of Huntington.
- ↑ According to Griffin, it's only the second time that he has been in charge of administering the Minion Quotes.
- ↑ It wasn't confirmed which brother got it right, but it seems from context that it was Travis yet again.
- ↑ The title goof appears in this section.
