It turns out the McElroy family organization is the exact opposite of the Mafia in that we are known for being real goofs and also owe favors to a lot of people. But we still have lots of advice you can’t refuse about suspicious frozen desserts, responsible accent work, and baby wookies.

Suggested talking points: Kit Fisto’s Best Friend, All Roads Lead to Sling Blade, Can’t Be Mad at Me I Said I Was Ignorant, Oops! We Bought a Mafia, They Call Me Creamy Pet

We’re on pace to answer as many questions as humanly possible before these lawsuits from Justin McElroy catch up to us. We’re talking self-branding, Muppet roller coasters, a slightly different Garfield, and Travis’s weirdly accurate predictions.

We’ve packed and starched three pairs of pants just to make sure we’re prepared for ANYTHING this episode!

We need someone to tier up on a soapbox for us, so we're finally pitching our own mascot. We need a fun, fuzzy monster that can guide our tummies through eating too many tiny hamburgers. Saucier! More depressing! And with more bones!

It feels like we were destined to tackle the topics at hand this week. Who else would be more equipped to name the ride-on floor cleaners,  reboot three different Phantom franchises, and use sports broadcasting to score some ice cream drumsticks, all while unveiling of the greatest advancement in high-tech, piss-proof cape technology. It’s like we’re outside on your next door balcony, projecting our podcast out into the world.

Our home town boys made GOOD! But don’t you worry, we won’t let the success go to our heads. As much as we wanted to make the whole thing ads top to bottom, this episode still has a tasteful amount of the absolute best ad reads in the game, alongside elevated discussions about special powers, what shapes make the best candy, and how to look cool on the playground.

Suggested talking points: How Will I Make it up to Kevin Pereira, Pre-Roll Papa, Strong Hammerbones in the Middle Ear,  Sorry it's been So Dusty, One of this Generation's Ad Wolves, Hut Crust, It's A Platform

We’re doing our best to not fully derail the episode and make it entirely about Cheezy G’s. So instead we’re juggling advice about strange folk songs, super-powered Janitor Eyes, and people who live at the DMV, like the Tom Hanks movie.

Suggested talking points: Toss My Dead Body Down the Adirondacks, Damn These Computer Movies, This is Lunch, Hit Single: Stop’s Coming Up Derek, The World’s Worst Gusher, You Hear That, Cheesy Jesus?
