  • It’s become a live podcast

    I love these guys, but they have clearly lost interest in doing this show. Since it’s moved to the live podcast format, it’s mainly stunt drinks and crowd pandering. Everybody’s gotta make money, I understand that. Live podcasts are always an auto skip for me, and it’s kind of a bummer that I’m skipping most of the episodes anymore.

  • Lost it's luster

    Used to be all in on this show, listened every week. After a couple years of the same bad jokes it lost whatever I once got from it. Tim and Mike are essentially one-trick-ponies who never surprise with new jokes, while Dutts is more of a no-trick-pony who has yet to ever be funny. Once the novelty has worn off, you realize what these guys have is some serious sad-dad energy. It's not cute and the lifestyle and attitude towards alcohol that they promote is nowhere near as cool as they'd like you... more

  • Love it

    Top tier funny podcast. Love these guys. Even with multiple re-listens. Great chemistry. Go support their patreon—it’s great, too! 🫡 this podcast gives me a little woody and a buzz. Also, they’re pretty much my boys at this point.

  • Tim Kalpakis is absolutely insufferable. And he hates dogs. Anyone who hates dogs is 1000% a terrible person. Sorry to Mike and Jeff cause they seem cool. And sorry to everyone in Tim's life. That must be hard.
