I'm horrified that no one bootlegged it. Monsters all.

Well, I think within the bananapants premise of the thing, with the caveat that I'm basing this entirely on the podcast summary of the science: * they have a drug that they think will prevent immune systems from mis-identifying embryos as foreign objects and attacking them, thereby preventing miscarriages; * if they inject the drug and embryo into a woman, they won't be able to tell whether it really worked or if the pregnancy just happened to work out normally, because women have bodies that will accept and nourish a pregnancy; * but if they inject the drug and embryo into a man and his body accepts the pregnancy, they know it definitely actually works. Since the testing is illegal and can't use multiple subjects -- and because they're PLANNING to abort after a few weeks -- using a man "makes sense" given that set of ludicrous assumptions.

Crosses the GOAT threshold shockingly early as Jason pitches his version of June's rewrite. Good ep.

This is the kind of episode that makes you wish there were a grade higher than C+. Good ep.

"the missing one is the one where PFT goes solo bolo" I will never be happy again.

Also: Gino Gino Gino Gino Gino.

I made a note in my Google Calendar over a year ago to remind myself to definitely vote for #259, Charlotte's Website. America, this is you. And I don't know if the whole episode will make it, but I think the Closing Sentiment Off from #265 is the single funniest thing I heard all year. This was the year of Lapkus. Behold.

I like even the bad Riddle Me Thises. It reminds me a bit of the early days of the podcast when guests would rail against the perfectly fair and clearly stated rules of Would You Rather.

One of Gino's best yet. I loved his just-barely-in-character ribbing of Scott. When is Gino getting a podcast? At the very least a parody of that "Nerdist Interns" thing Nerdist used to do.

This bit came together so well at the end it seems like it must have been planned for years. Which is double impressive considering it was obviously entirely made up on the spot.

I made a note in my Google Calendar months ago to remind myself of Regina Crimp's original appearance come Best Of time. So funny. People on this show have been firing on all cylinders lately, especially since some of the reliable heavy-hitters (Andy Daly, PFT) seem to have been on less lately.

good ep

That PFT guest host / Auckerman charac idea is dynamite. Sixth anniversary ep?

Geez, if PFT can't stick around for more than one segment it's no wonder he's barely ever invited to be on the show.

"when can we get a podcast dedicated only to Scott doing his Bruce impersonation?" It's called "Cake, Boss," and we've been begging for it in the UTU22M threads FOREVER

"Cake, Boss" is the best idea of all time. How much do we have to donate?

"Scott & Todd" was a morning show in the NY area in the 1990s. It's obviously time to bring it back.

a ludicrous plot I can't imagine what you mean by this.

Scott and the gang would be able to make a decent fair use case as this is technically music criticism, and using snippets rather then full songs would help their case. The commercial purpose would cut against them -- though unless I'm mistaken there were actually no ads in this one...

Will these be released anywhere? I'll pay anything.

I'm starting to feel awful for Kulap and Naomi Scott and think they should start their own rival podcast together. I think having them be guests on an ep of U Talkin U2 To Me? just talking about how much they hate it would be hilarious I have to believe this will happen. I have to believe that.

Probably the best solo bolo of all time.

I agree very strongly that the time for the CBBTVverse Marissa Wompler has come. Followed by several CBB multiple universe crossovers, folowed by the Crisis on Infinite Comedy Bang Bangs, followed by the Death and Return of Cake Boss.

The year was 2014. Gino was GOAT of underappreciated Comedy Bang Bang recurring characters.

I was so unbelievably frustrated by my inability to call into the podcast and explain "No Soap Radio" to Scott. Now I realize *that* was the joke. You bastard.
