Recommended Posts

Mike Mitchell, Alex Fernie, Chad Carter, Hillary Matthews and special guest Jesse David Fox join Matt Besser for scenes about a freegan IT worker, an extremely competitive grandfather, and a prank show that pranks pranksters.

Besser should have given Mumbling Junkie a few more seconds. It becomes very clear that Mumbling Junkie is the aggressor and the scene's asshole.
