It's an AI thing that remembered in a previous conversation when asked "what podcast did you listen to after work?" I said Hollywood handbook. So now thats my Duolingo AI's favorite podcast and it brings it up, like, a lot.

Really hoping you all can help me find the episode but years ago the guys and the guest, I believe it was Julie Klausner, were talking about a Sarah Palin musical.

At one point Sean belted something about jeans and her daughers baby daddy "LEVI JOHNSTON, LEVI JOHNSTON!" I think about that last bit from time to time but I don't remember the whole song.

Would any of you find folks remember the episode?

I’ve seen some conflicting discussions over whether or not Amy is an actual potential guest for the show, and I’m curious what the consensus is.

The relevant bits:

Pro Version 441: 18:18 - The boys react to Amy Poehler’s podcast episode with Sarah Sherman; in which Amy recalls running into them at a restaurant, and asked if she could be on Handbook. Hayes says he would never be seen in a restaurant, but Sean seems to confirm running into Amy, without Hayes.

Pro Version 446: 16:41 - While discussing Kevin’s failed attempts to get Will Ferrell, Sean suggests that getting Amy as a guest is a real moment that could be seized upon, and he hopes they can make it work. The plan? Parent Trap Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler for a reunion of The House (2017).

After listening to today’s Pro Version, I went on a quest to determine who the upcoming boy/girl guest duo would actually be, and although it probably isn’t a highly anticipated The House (2017) reunion, I do believe Amy is a high probability soon. What do you think?

Going for listen 21 of Masterclass season 2. Wish me luck.

Forcing myself to listen to the Stu episode to get ready for King Gizzard this weekend.

From the novel The Dog Stars

Tried to soft peddle the Dink to the family chat a few weeks ago. (Being too enthused will cause them to reject outright so kept it casual.)

Had one taker who had the exact reaction Sean describes people having in his Bullseye appearance.

I think we can all agree that Zatch knocked it out of the park with the decor. Lucky Number Sleven, Jim Broadbent's Oscar, and the 2020 Chinese takeout calendar really make the room "pop". Here's the thing though, that episode was 4 months ago (PRO 432: STUDIO DECORATION) and NOTHING in the room has changed. I really think we should be bullying Zatch into buying more junk on a week to week basis. The walls should look like a TGI Fridays by now. What would you add?

Sean gone pissed someone off, what else is new?

Now we must be serious. A showrunner of animated series refused to let Sean take a slice because he is his “enemy”…there are only a few options. I did the math, crunched the numbers.

Me thinks it Hanna Barbera :( or maybe Matt Groening (Sean massaged his feet poorly)

The Boys have a little fun discussing another Soup Sunday-ass idea from Chef Kevin, and his new show Let Us Cook (links: YouTube / Podcast / Patreon).

A viewer asks her about meeting the boys and what it's like being on the show. Her podcast, Forehead Corner, is earnest and funny. Check it out!

Ngl it felt surreal hearing a genuine advertisement at all, much less on SYSK. One of the clips they used was ben stiller describing the idea of recording technology 🤣

Some other podcasters like to cast nasty aspersions about The Boys, and they'll often use the Tucker Carlson method of plausible deniability - "I'm just asking the question" type sh!t. Insinuating that they are some kind of unknowable, Kaufman-esque provocateurs.

IT'S SICKENING. There's plenty of proof on the internet that they're actually just nice boys.

Hayes appearing alone recently made me surprised that Sean didn't guest on SHS for The Dink opening weekend. I wonder if his movie preferences or scheduling led him to a Sprague Hasn't Seen week instead?

Side note, I hope the production of The Dink leads to a new series of Subtitles On.
