Episode 115 — Improving Brett's House with DC Pierson

[agata 2789]

Sean and the Earwolf studio are unavailable so Hayes and DC Pierson are forced to record from Engineer Brett's home and take drastic measures to make it not as bad.

What a relief

[kobthatreal 5896]

Umm, was anyone else really pissed when Hayes said Bun B is from Atlanta? Bun B is from Houston. He's famously a fan of the Houston Rockets. I guess they didnt cover this in the advanced sabermetrics course.

 

 

 

On a more serious note, this is a great episode but it certainly brings to light some inherent issues of comedy. Brett did really good and was very funny throughout even though he has no idea whats going on. And that's the problem. As far as we all can tell, and you can never really know, Brett is a mentally disabled person. At the very least I can safely assume what he perceives as reality is just a series of overlaying acid trip flashbacks, making him insane. At times I feel guilty and wonder if I'm listening to the show wrong because I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be laughing at him. I guess if Brett is okay with it and is having fun then we can't really call it exploitation, but part of it makes me sad. I'm sure some of you will take the, "oh it don't hurt him none, look at that smile on his face," type of stance. I just hope they don't try to pay him in something he'd easily be fooled into believing was money, like a wet plastic bag.

 

Anyway, I can't wait for Sean to get back and this show can continue it's hot streak.

Sean's gone. He was a synth the whole time. Too funny for a human.

Killing it mwn. Fucking killing it, bro.

I loved the talk of the Rube Goldberg-ian headphones and the finite pools. DC was great, Brett was great, Hayes was great and even though I didn't hear Sean I bet he was great too.

real talk: I could listen to Brett pretend(?) to be a dumb guy and get gently dressed down for like a full fuckin day. it's genuinely wonderful
