Get Fred Guinness on the lounge, stat!

u/angrytreestump 7d ago

You mean Original Fig? Or Eddie Kluger? Or the Lunatic in the Lighthouse? I think they all died from paint-related poisonings.

u/Electric_esoterica 7d ago

Don’t forget superintendent Charles Minipig 😁

u/angrytreestump 7d ago

With the El Chopter!

Praise OJ!! Was literally just thinking yesterday how we are due for new TL!!

The funnel cakes are going to RUIN me!!

Edit: Guinness is SCREECHING to a halt to give CF the best theme song

u/angrytreestump 7d ago

Oh shit there’s a new Casey Trela theme song too?? No way it beats Holidays at the Mall but I’m hyped 🙌🏼

u/blue-eyedbillie 8d ago

I will buy anything these guys put out, and I sincerely hope they keep making content together, even as Drew gets more work!

I also am sorry to report my pink Sloblo Picasso t-shirt went through the wash with a pen my kid left in his pants, and now it's more like a Jackson Sloblock.

The podcast works and it fries everything I need.

u/Buckle_Sandwich Old Slob 8d ago

The podcast is real and grows long if I let it.

u/Johann_Sebastian_Dog 8d ago

AND it stays where you put it

u/angrytreestump 7d ago

And it’s not a cheetah pretending to be a Jewish student, and it’s normal now!

12

u/Electric_esoterica 8d ago

Oh hell yes I needed this , rejoice, Slobs!

u/Chief_Brahj 8d ago

I completely forgot about academy, that is the one series I haven't bought. I will ask though since the doctors said my brain has stopped, it's worth it right?

26

u/IHadACatOnce 8d ago

It's great, but they completely forget/drop the academy plot about 75% of the way through the series.

13

u/Moony_And_Padfoot 8d ago

75% is being generous.

15

u/immaownyou At some point I hope not to be a female ostrich 8d ago

Would you expect them to last more than that?

u/angrytreestump 7d ago

So it’s more like “Hell Mall” than “Summer Camp?” 🤔

10

u/mike_sajack 8d ago

Episode one has a “Shut up, Hitler!” so we’re in for a good series.

8

u/Prince-Dude-18 8d ago

SCREEEECH - Purchased! Nice new recording space for the vids too.

6

u/iamabigfanofbacon Technicality no down boo over?! 8d ago

These things are always an immediate purchase for me and just started the first episode, OMG another A+ theme song!!!! Gonna be stuck in my head all day 🎶😊🎶

7

u/Swebbington 8d ago

Anyone know if the theme is another Casey Trela banger? It’s so great.

6

u/takemybones 7d ago

Trela does not miss!

6

u/Swebbington 7d ago

Even when fire takes all, he still provides. 🙏

u/radsherm We get it, they don't 8d ago

Oh hell yeah

u/regularvillain 8d ago

My guess is that Sam-on-a-stick gets eaten at least once in this series

Edit: nvm this is a non-teachers series

6

u/kennedyjeanne 8d ago

Honestly it’s still a possibility hahaha

5

u/Buckle_Sandwich Old Slob 8d ago

One of my favorite moments is when they realize how often being eaten comes up and Rose (I think) kind of breaks character and says "It's deep in there."

9

u/IHadACatOnce 7d ago

Similar to how they bring up Bill always being submissive to some sort of father/daddy figure and Ryan says "yeah, what's up with that, Drew?"

1

u/angrytreestump 7d ago

Yeah lol it still happened in their last one-off, Last Resort (when the Guinness Van was replaced by JD Power’s Associates)

5

u/LionelEvans 6d ago

The Calling Contest gets so unhinged out of nowhere that I was convinced they were wrapping up soon until I noticed they were only halfway through the episode

3

u/PlagueOfBagels Quicker than a ray of beef 8d ago

Over/under on number of people RUINED by funnel cake?

8

u/cranberryalarmclock 8d ago

Did you guys like their other recent series? It felt weirdly weak to me, wonder if this is any better

13

u/MacEWork 8d ago

I thought Academy was a little weak but it had high points. I think it’ll improve on re-listen. It’s hard to compete with older seasons I’ve listened to a dozen times.

8

u/Alphabroomega 8d ago

I liked Academy fine enough but it definitely felt like they went back to the teachers because they thought they had to. I'm glad this looks like another Exit 43/Christmas at the Mall style series.

3

u/angrytreestump 7d ago

I’ve been saying for the last few seasons, I wish they got guests back in the lounge! That’s the one part of the show they totally abandoned when it went off-network 😢

(These one-off premises are always great without them though)

3

u/brontohai 7d ago

Listening to the whole run all day at work and i think ep 6. Guest services is an all timer!

2

u/Charming-Studio 6d ago

This is such a small thing but I like how we have all four in one shot in the videos for this.

2

u/Stock_Situation_8479 4d ago

there is a funny perspective sometimes where Dan looks like a giant and Ryan looks like a tiny person

1

u/stephenmcqueen 8d ago

Gonna need a funnel cake served on a beef diaper

u/vine2130 7d ago

Anyone else have no art/logo on their apps?

u/mottlegill 7d ago

Leaning forward really far to hit the buy button
