MBMBaM 628: Don’t Say Scoobity
This might be the first direct-sequel to a previous episode that we’ve done. Okay, maybe more of a spiritual successor than like a story with continuity or anything. But it’s important to continue the tradition of us making noises and then attempting to improve said noises. Skee-bop-bop.Suggested talking points: Duelin’ Daves, The Murder Lineage Lore , Make David Krumholtz Work For You, Turbo Sombrero, Tongue torch, Chill Foxes that Don’t Mind Being Taped to RocketsEarthjustice: https://earthjustice.org/

MBMBaM 627: Brush Your Teeth Because Coyotes
People love making jokes about the movie Ghost, but we can do better. We’re pitching a reboot with like, Rooney Mara. Or . . . Helen Mirren? And what if it wasn’t a ghost, but a mummy? Or like, a Frankenstein? And not pottery, but a magic mirror that shows you the moment of your death? Wait, hang on, this is too good to share. Forget we said any of this.Suggested talking points: Spittlest Brother, Big Beefy Sandwiches, Cashing Chicken Cheques, God’s Not Dead He’s at Wingstop, I Can Moan; I’m a Man, Do You Fuck Ghosts At Your Job?Earthjustice: https://earthjustice.org/

MBMBaM 625: Contact High
Our producers went through this episode and offered a lot of notes, so you may notice some different things going on here. More Justin laughing at his own jokes. Less excruciatingly long silences, like so long you thought the podcast was paused. More foam rollers. Less Texas-sized hunger. And always, more TikTok.Suggested talking points: Put More In to Edit Out , Yankoviched It, ClnRid, I Thought We Were More Than Stink, Victorian Garbage Pail Kid, Twist it Up TonightCenter for Reproductive Rights: https://reproductiverights.org/

MBMBaM 624: Reince Your Own Priebus
This episode is all about being nostalgic for the 2010s to remind you of that good life. All the good stuff like . . . uh . . . athleisure. And Fortnite. And wearing shorts! No one does that anymore. This is gonna take you right back, to like four or five years ago, tops.Suggested talking points: New Trash Bags, Malphobiansus the Wizard, I Don’t Know Despacito and At This Point, I’m Too Afraid to Ask, You Can Give Me a Yogurt Enema Anytime, Roblox While We VapeCenter for Reproductive Rights: https://reproductiverights.org/

MBMBaM 623: GooMail Me
Extremely important breaking news: Justin has a new very pretty kitty.
