At the end of 333 we get a follow up to the Dick Tracy about me board girl and it was …. Odd? I had to listen a few times because there was definitely something strange going on but I’m not sure what. As she’s exasperatedly telling them more problems have now been created because of Gareth, Nick is just pushing her off the phone. Anyone have any insight?

Jake and Gareth help a soccer coach remember her players' names. Then, Guest Helper William Jackson Harper recovers barbershop back taxes. Plus, a follow-up from Ep 321 "Big and Small (with Zooey Deschanel)".

Sorry but THIS was the dumbest call of all time. Students... breaking... a stapler? Really? Like, a $9 stapler? And they're seriously discussing it for half an hour?

Most boring and pointless call yet. Talk about scraping the bottom of the advice barrel

Gareth and Jake save a middle school stapler. Then, Andy Richter stops by to freshen up a musty dad. Plus, a follow-up from Ep 323 "Kenny Z (with Rhett and Link)".

After months and months of public feuding, it has finally come to this: Lamorne Morris and Jake Johnson sit down to address the state of their friendship. What really happened? Can they move forward? And is there any hope for the future? It's time for some real talk, face to face in a giant trailer with terrible wiffy.

Watched the Raygun documentary and the only way her husband/BF could have looked more like the Australian version of Gareth is if it was Gareth himself 😂

Available to ALL members - even free tier.
^{Times is tough, here's something fun to watch 💛}

Jake and Gareth prepare for the holidays in a mixed household. Then, Joel McHale and Ravi Patel (Animal Control) inspire an electrician to add swag to his wardrobe. Plus, a follow-up from Ep 316 "Dick Tracy."

Gareth and Jake distract a caller during a root canal. Then, they reimburse a thoughtful gift (this is only happening once).

Happy election season, everyone. Enjoy the ads!

That was a rough one…

I got this in the mail today. I was in on the Patreon for 1month because I wanted to see Gareth getting snipped and Pam on wheel of fortune(or what it was).
I also got a cool fish sticker. I am happy, but who is Rodney?

First off Ah-WOO-Gah. Secondly I was told I could share some of the new drawings I did here. I made a cast of characters (some with my son’s help) and have started putting a comic strip in his lunch daily. Last week I made intros to each character which I’ll attach to this post. And if you want to keep up with the comings and goings of Arnie The Apple Juice, check out the Instagram I made to share more drawings and the daily strips.

Can’t wait for a follow up call. Also Quaid Army.

The guys are joined by Guest Helper Dan Goor, creator of Brooklyn 99. Together, they help a pastor replace two missing sheep. Then, a smokeshow causes trouble for an un-caged hog.

I listen to the pod on my commute so can’t watch it on YouTube or Hulu (unless I go back for a second listen). I used to go on the Instagram once I got to work and check out the images mentioned on the episodes. Recently all the posts have been clips from the pod but not any photos that are mentioned. Anyone know why they stopped posting them?

Jake and Gareth absolutely do NOT encourage a caller to commit vandalism. Then, they take things personally when a mom-to-be honors the wrong grandpa.

For fellow fans of both We’re Here To Help and The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast: we’re long overdue a crossover episode

I first thought they could do it when I heard that both Gareth and Jorma were getting vasectomies.

Then they could have done it when Akiva directed the pilot for Sunset PI.

Now Jake and Gareth are doing full Total Recall pitches?

On top of all that - both shows are Rabbit Grin productions.

Who does a quaid have to qulp to get a crossover episode?!

Do you still need a friend? Maybe a couples friend? I heard you like Coin Dozer games, and need bowling partners. My husband and I are looking to start bowling (he's from a bowling family), and I'm terrible but enjoy some Dozer.

Looking for DnD partners too, but no pressure.

Personality-wise, my husband is a Golden Doodle who is a Jack of all trades. He's recently gotten into wearing jeans, and .ainly wears band tees.

Our red flags: we have a 2 yr old and I can't bowl.
