With the final episode of February, they also want to put some attention to multimedia and entertainment. The show begins with putting attention towards the 50th anniversary of Saturday Night Live (18:45) which aired earlier in the month. EstoBro comments that the significance of the program did not reflect the historical value of the sketch comedy show, as the hosts ponder how much longer the show will run on television. EstoBro also points out to a new animated show on adult swim called Common Side Effects (33:55), which has been marketed well by the platform and is receiving great criticism with the shows message about psychedelic drugs versus pharmaceutical companies in today's society. The show has phenomenal potential with comedic genius Mike Judge participating on the show. He also reveals that the Wayans Brothers are officially working on a sequel to the movie White Chicks (43:05). Where the film was a comedic success, TV wonders how they can make a movie following the events of the first film. Finally, the show brings two segments together with 'Good, Bad, and Ugly' with the Chicken Sandwich Wars (51:55), but this time, the Gents focus on a bigger picture with 'The World of CKN' that features shocking developments of a major franchise has filed for bankruptcy. Theme song made by iamRavedadInteract with the Gents of the podcast on the following social media platforms:X (Formally known as Twitter) YouTube InstagramBlog/websiteJoin the Discord serverSubscribe to the official playlist of the podcast

Send us a textFive years of the EstoBro TV Podcast is worth something to celebrate on the holiday the Gents are most thankful for. Matty EstoBro and Theo 'TV' V. have been as thick as thieves since their glory days in college, and they do not plan on stopping curating podcast episodes in their passion project. Join the pair as they take the listening audience in for a vintage feel on how they once originally started the show, by discussing the topics they are most passionate about. Starting off with the sports segment with the 'Good, Bad, and Ugly,' after the results of fight weekend earlier this November (12:00), as they highlight the victory of Jon 'Bones' Jones at UFC 309 and criticize the results of the boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. As they turn their attention to the entertainment part of the show, the Gents were right on the mark on how Wicked and Gladiator 2 would do well on their debut at the box office (33:30). With Red One still getting a great deal of flack, they also start dismissing the credibility of MetaCritic with their latest ranking lists: first to be confused of the greatest holiday films of this century, followed by the ranking list of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson's films that he has starred in. We cannot have entertainment without music (49:50), and the latest news is Kendrick Lamar's latest album dropped with GNX as a surprise release. They also highlight the latest rapper in K-Dot's crosshairs with Lil Wayne, as there has been much speculation of this since the former was selected to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime show in New Orleans. The following segment is the latest in nerd culture (56:40), with the latest nominations for this year's Game of the Year Awards and an update on how anime breaks into the trading card scene with Union Arena. The show concludes with some vintage segment, 'Who has the munchies?' (70:55) going into detail about the proper way to make a Thanksgiving leftovers sandwich and EstoBro's latest entry in the 'Chicken Sandwich Wars.' The Gents want to thank their listening audience for supporting the program over the past 5 years and wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!Like the song that closes the show?

The chicken sandwich wars may have started in 2019 but now, four years later, we're seeing more of these wars now than ever before. Popeyes was the originator of the war with its initial chicken sandwich and the tweet heard round the world at Chick-fil-A. Then came almost every chain in the country adding chicken sandwiches to the menu.McDonald's made a big statement with its chicken sandwich, later dubbed the McCrispy while Wingstop, mainly known for its wings, introduced a chicken sandwich available with all its sauces.While chains may have introduced one chicken sandwich considering consumer demand, this second stage of the war is all about spices and texture.Increasingly, younger consumers are looking for portable foods and the chicken sandwich fits in perfectly with that narrative. The thing they want more than ever is sauces. We've seen several chains roll out new sauces or spicy chicken sandwiches. Chick-fil-A put pimento on its chicken sandwich and KFC introduced a BBQ chicken sandwich.It seems chains are fighting once again in the Chicken Sandwich Wars 2.0.

As we enter the month of October, the first episode of the month is a show centered around current sports events. EstoBro opens up the show by focusing on the Toy Story broadcast that ESPN tested over the weekend (4:15). It was the first London series matchup played between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Atlanta Falcons. Although the focus on the target audience was children, it did not seem to impress the hosts of the podcast. With MLB playoffs beginning, the Gents sulk the sorrows of their favorite baseball clubs not playing baseball in October (12:45). Hear EstoBro rant about how the Atlanta Braves spoiled the Chicago Cubs' playoff chances, as he and TV wrongly predict the playoff run of the Tampa Bay Rays. TV is also bothered by the recent news of Damian Lillard being traded to the Milwaukee Bucks (28:35). He and everyone else truly believed that the NBA All-Star was going to join Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat, but we are certain that Dame was not ready to go through his emo phase in South Beach. The Gents also point out the United States failed to defend the Ryder Cup in Rome to the European golf stars (57:35), and what is to be the outcome future of the international tournament when more countries are being represented in golf.

Welcome to the Numlock Sunday edition.This week, I spoke to Justin McElroy, who you might know from his work on the podcast My Brother, My Brother and Me or The Adventure Zone.Wednesday will mark a shocking milestone: As of September 13, the Chicken Sandwich Wars will have gone on longer than the armed conflict of the American Civil War. Yes, the conflict between quick-service restaurants over who has produced a desirable chicken sandwich offering began in August 2019, what feels like a lifetime ago, and nobody has covered this more persistently than McElroy on his Munch Squad podcast within a podcast.I'm a big fan of his work, and in addition to this devastating conflict we also chatted about increasingly unhinged limited time offerings, his multiple bestselling comic books, and the current “Steeplechase” season of The Adventure Zone.All this can be found at TheMcElroy.family.This interview has been condensed and edited.Justin McElroy, thank you so much for coming on.Thank you for having me in this important journalistic endeavor.This is a critical moment. We find ourselves at the week the Chicken Sandwich Wars will have gone on longer than the American Civil War. You have been on the ground covering this day by day, hour after hour.At what point do we just recognize that this is the second American Civil War? I mean it's all the bad blood, brother versus brother versus colonel. It's got everything.Why don't you take us back to the beginning? Munch Squad, a podcast within a podcast on My Brother, My Brother and Me, has been dedicated to covering the latest and greatest in food offerings, as you'll go on to explain. Chicken Sandwich Wars have been dominating this for years now at this point. How did this start?I have always been, and I think I got this from my dad, I've always been sort of a sucker for— I mean, I don't know how to say it other than just marketing. I'm like an absolute sucker. A lot of that is me being willing to just sort of go with it, and finding that I'm happier if I'm not fighting the thousands of advertising messages that are being sent to me on a daily basis. I just kind of go with it. I love to try new consumer products, and I know that's goofy, but whenever you would go to Columbus, Ohio, it's a popular test market for new products so you'll see drinks you hadn't heard of before, whatever. Dad would always do that when we were kids. Any new drink, he would come home with a 12-pack like, "All right, guys, this is the new Crystal Pepsi, they're calling it, so you guys have got to try this."Yeah, anytime I see new stuff like this, it comes from a genuine place. I genuinely think it's fascinating. What I love, though, is when I find out that these companies have to put out press releases for these dumb products. No matter how dumb the thing is, they've got to let people know about it and someone is tasked with the job of writing the press release for something that is a sentence.I mean it's always a sentence, right? "We now have a chicken sandwich." "We are Dunkin' and we put beer in coffee, and you can buy it at the store. Please go buy it." I did one a few weeks ago that was like, "Extra gum has a new pink lemonade flavor. Here's the press release." It's like, how would anybody know that's even a new product? If I saw that, I'd assume they've sold it for 20 years. It's just wild and I think that that's really funny.The first one I did was Taco Bell doing the naked chicken taco, which is when they made a taco shell out of a chicken breast, and it's so vulgar.Everything about it is vulgar! It makes me want to be a vegetarian. It's a vulgar exercise, and I was like, "This is too great. I've got to share this with people." That was back, I don't know, 2016, around there or something like that, and we just kept going with it because the press releases just kept getting wilder.It slows down sometimes. But there's always new stuff to make fun of, and I just think that it's great. It feels like when you're somebody who cares about doing comedy that doesn't specifically target people, especially marginalized groups or just anybody specific, anybody individually; we really try to be upbeat. I feel like making fun of not just corporations, but marketing for specific consumer products is as near to a victimless crime as you can get. Even the people writing these things know like, "Yeah, this isn't going to get me my Pulitzer. It's all in good fun." But yeah, that is the Munch Squad.Yeah. Limited time offerings, they've always existed, right? There's always been the McRib, there have always been things like that. They are increasingly unhinged and I don't think anybody's been following that quite like you.Yeah, I do. I have exposed myself to a wide variety. Sometimes, the product will be wild, but there's just nothing. They don't have the press release. I've got to have the press release. I've got to have the news. I have to have someone reporting it journalistically who is also paid by Pepsi or Taco Bell or whatever, and it was the same company, but you know what I mean. Yeah, I have followed the space very closely.Yeah, it's been just genuinely a pleasure to listen to. Again, you've developed this form of taste, I think, among these sorts of products. You've been able to clock if they're only in one restaurant for one hour in Anchorage, Alaska.I'm glad you're bringing that up. Thank you. That does make me very angry and that is something that has happened in later Munch Squad and almost kind of put me off of it, is you start to see these companies that are just doing it for the bit. If they're doing it for the bit, it's a lot harder for me to do jokes about it because they already know that it's dumb. Pepsi did Peeps-flavored Pepsis and you had to get them from a contest or whatever, and it drives me crazy.Just have the strength of your convictions to make your dumb soda and let the market sort it out.I don't even think this is on Munch Squad; it's something we talked about on my cereal podcast, the Empty Bowl, but Carvel, the ice cream cake people, they made a "cereal" that was just the crunchy chocolate bits that go in the middle of the ice cream cake with the fudge sauce. You know what I mean? They made a cereal out of that, but they're in little tiny boxes and they only sold them for one day at their stores.It's like, just make it or don't. You know what I mean? Cowards, everybody. I don't like that stuff. Make a product, put it out there for everybody. Don't do like the CurderBurger where you only do it for one day. I did talk about the CurderBurger because it was a burger with a loaf of cheese curd on it in Wisconsin. That was pretty good. But by and large, wide release or nothing. That's what I say.You can't not talk about a CurderBurger.Yeah, and people could go buy that. You could go buy it in the store. It's usually my cutoff. I prefer a wide release, but still.You've been covering this for a while. Again, I can't imagine the amount of time that you spend on QSR magazine.A lot.A lot?Paper and digital.Oh, you get the print? You get the dead tree edition?Some fun-time jokesters signed my P.O. box up for a subscription to that. I get lots of them. Someone signed us up for horse magazines. Thank you. That's great for recycling. Someone signed us up for the gas station mag — they have a publication for new gas station convenience offerings — so I try to track the sources wherever they are.That's incredible. Again, your history is journalism. You founded Polygon. I've always enjoyed that element of Munch Squad where it's like, "Clearly, this is something that's going on." And I'm glad that you alluded to, again, your father has roots of journalism as well, that this is a trade that you've been applying for quite some time.Yes, that was my first job outside of retail. It was in my mid-20s. I got hired to be the news editor at a small paper in Ohio, and I was desperately underqualified, but I just sort of kept scamming my way up and pivoted over to video game coverage, mainly. I know enough journalism to know how to pretend I'm doing journalism in the Munch Squad, so that's about where my skillset is at this moment.Do you have any favorites that come to mind? Any specific limited time offerings or press releases that just really kind of made a dent in you?Let me think. Taco Bell did a naked egg taco. You know when they did the chicken, but this was a gigantic fried egg that they folded up into a taco shell and made a breakfast offering? That's unacceptable. That's simply not a product that anybody should be consuming.Burger King, the Nightmare Burger where it was black for Halloween, remember that? It gave everybody black poops. That was a fun time to be in the business. Yeah, Burger King will dye their buns sometimes and it ruins people's bowel movements.Man, Chris Angel had a restaurant. Do you remember? I had to look up the acronym. Chris Angel made or opened a restaurant, it's spelled C-A-B-L-P. It's Cablp, and that is short for, of course, Chris Angel Breakfast, Lunch, and Pizza. They call it Cablp. I don't even know if that's still open. That was back in 2021, but Cablp. Oh, God, that still hits. Cablp.The Chicken Sandwich Wars were obviously launched into devastating effect in August of 2019. Where do you see that going? For a while, there was quite a bit of activity and now it's been, kind of they're in the long haul, I've got to say.From your view, where are the Chicken Sandwich Wars at?At this point, I feel like a lot of us have moved on from the war part of it. I feel like what we're seeing now is we're entering a phase where we're all sort of culturally accepting that every place has a chicken sandwich. This is what's weird about the Chicken Sandwich Wars, if I may.You may.These places all had chicken sandwiches.That's the thing that people forget, right? They had chicken sandwiches. They were bad.The only one people liked was Chick-fil-A, and they turned out to be a little bit questionable on some of the donations of groups they're giving to, a lot of anti-LGBTQ places, so people stopped eating the chicken sandwich.For me, that's the beginning of the chicken sandwich. That was the only good one you could get. They turned out to be some nasty dogs over there, maybe, and so nobody's going to eat that chicken sandwich anymore. Somebody had to step in.As long ago as 2005, McDonald's came at the crown. They came for true at Kathy's Kreations, which, they still insist that they made the first chicken sandwich, and that just seems wild to me. It's a fried breast between a bun. Come on, nobody can invent that. It just is. It just exists as these two products are created. As soon as we had bread and chicken, somebody was like, "Wait, I got it. Hold on. Step back." So I don't grant that to Kathy or Popeye's, to be fair, that both of them claim to have the first chicken sandwich.Anyway, so McDonald's in 2005, they had a Southern-style Chicken Sandwich, and that was it. That was straight up. We got a potato bun, we got two pickles, we got pickle-brining, let's go. It had a good run. I think it was a decade that it continued. Even they were in the game.Then when Popeye's decided like, "Hey, why don't we try? Why don't all of us other restaurants try to make a good one instead of making a forgettable option for your cousin that doesn't like hamburgers? We'll actually try,” then you started having more and more people come out.Walter, do you know — this is true — between the beginning of 2019 and the end of 2020, do you know how much sales of chicken sandwiches increased?I do not.It's really easy to remember this statistic because it is 420 percent.That's a memorable statistic.It's a memorable statistic. It's how I remember that my daughter was born at 4 p.m. and 20 minutes. 4:20 is when my kid was born. 420 percent. That is how much chicken sandwich sales increased.Everybody's just like, "Hey, restaurants are selling good chicken sandwiches now. We should probably go get them." But the wars, I don't know why it had to be a war.Everybody in the war, by the way, always shouts out all the other people in the war, which is wild because that doesn't seem to be a good marketing strategy to just be like, "Here are some other places that have done this and now we're doing it too." But I think it's also the Chicken Sandwich Wars, I think what that is is directly connected to Munch Squad.Because I think it is someone that had to do a press release about a chicken sandwich, and they're like, "It's got to have some kind of angle. I don't know what the first line of this press release is going to be. Maybe wars; I keep talking about the wars that are going on that everybody seems to be so hot on," and that was just like the angle. It's solved. If you have a chicken sandwich and you're writing a press release about it, you've got to mention the wars.And the more belabored it gets, the better for a lot of these. It's like, "We're finally strapping on our chicken rifles and wading into the trenches to blow the other sandwiches straight to hell. We're going to make some chicken sandwich widows out here. Let's go," and it's gross. Just say it's a good sandwich or bad.For years, we've maintained neutrality, but today, that is enough.Right, and neutrality, I have to be clear, is a bad chicken sandwich! It's not like no chicken sandwich. It's just, let's try to make a good one.Yeah. It is really funny that you can draw a fairly direct line between the success of the gay rights movement and a 420 percent increase in chicken sandwich sales.It's beautiful. It's a story of love and acceptance. I mean really, war is such a misnomer. It should be a cultural shift of people unwilling to accept lesser treatment by buying evil cursed chicken sandwiches.To show you how seriously these places took it, in Huntington, West Virginia, where I live, they opened up a Bojangles — which is like lower-tier Popeye's, it's a mid-tier Popeye's — but it was huge in Huntington, so much so that they had to reroute traffic on Route 60 around the line for Bojangles.It got so bad, KFC, there's another KFC down the road about a mile, and they put up a sign that just had a big picture of the Colonel and it said, "We make chicken around here." Outside the Bojangles, the KFC put up like a, "Hey, not in our town. This is a KFC town," and hey, hand to God, that Bojangles closed. I don't know what the Colonel was working over there, but it worked. They're back to the only chicken on Route 60 as far as I know.Listen, you start a battle? Send in the Colonel.Yeah, if you're going to come for the Colonel's crown, you best come for the bow tie. You've got to come correct. No way. Is it the bolo? What would you call that? It doesn't matter.I would call it a bolo.You get the idea. Bolo? Yeah.I want to talk a little bit about this current season of The Adventure Zone. You have been the game master for it. I've really, really enjoyed it. I've dug it a lot.Thank you.I really mean that. Yeah, it's a phenomenal season. I think the setting is excellent and I want to talk a little bit about that because it is very theme park, Disney inspired, I would say. I think that that ties in decently well with Munch Squad in the sense that there is a commentary about commercialization, but nevertheless identity-bound to American pop culture. I guess I'd love to ask you a little bit about where some of that season came from and where that setting came from.Yeah. Everybody else in my family had run the game. Oh my gosh, my Arby's big cheddar bowling shirt just got delivered. What a delight. Remind me when we're done, I'll make sure to grab it so you can see, it's going to be a wonder.I hadn't done the game master thing yet. It always seemed kind of overwhelming and I waited, and I put it off as long as they would let me, because I didn't think I'd be very good at it. I finally was kind of forced into it and we found this game, Blades in the Dark, that's about theft and heists, and I liked that kind of thing. I think that that kind of thing is cool and a nice change of pace from murdering your way through caves or whatever happens in others.I am a huge theme park nut, I always have been. I think that they are fascinating. I think I even like reading and understanding and learning about them more than I like actually being there. It's more like a hobby. No, I'm the most annoying person to walk around Disney World with. You do not want to look every f*****g four steps at some other dumb thing I've got to point out. I love that kind of stuff.So I was like, "Well, okay, if I were going to make a world that could incorporate all this junk in my brain, then I would make a giant park like that on a grander scale." So the theme worlds, in this park I called Steeplechase, the theme worlds are layers stacked on top of each other, and each layer is a completely immersive sim. I love immersive stuff like that, too, like Sleep No More, things like that where it's bringing you into the experience, so I thought this would be amazing.I kind of made my dream place to go to, and then the show, as we've gone on, has really been about me wrestling with these ideas of a society obsessed with entertainment and obsessed with distraction. I'm not coming out as a cultural critic, because I'm very much lumping myself in with that, this idea that you lose yourself so deeply in distraction and entertainment that you lose contact with the world around you or forget what you would consider your actual or real life.That has been the thing that I've been sort of exploring with it, is what is the impact of that? What kind of obligation do you have to the real world and the people around you versus losing yourself in it in a fiction? Very aware, the whole time, that we are making an escapist fiction at the same time as I'm talking about this, so it is a little bit of an ouroboros, but yeah, that's what it's been.Also, that's a very highfalutin way of describing it, and I'm terrible at describing stuff in ways where people would actually want to listen to it, but I swear it's a lot more fun than that. There's a layer that's like a noir crime kind of deal, so I watched a bajillion, every noir movie I could get my hands on to really tap into that aesthetic. There's a fantasy layer where we've incorporated elements from previous Adventure Zone shows. There's a reality show dating kind of thing.But that's the idea. Every layer is people pursuing their fantasies while these three creeps try to rob them blind, so it's been a lot of fun. We're heading toward the end, I think. The next few episodes, probably, it's finally wrapping up, it'll be somebody else's problem, but I feel really good about what I've been able to do.When I started, it seemed so overwhelming until I realized it's just like eating an airplane. You start, you've got to take it into really small chunks, and then eventually, you're halfway through the wings.It's a really fun listen.Thanks.Again, you have some really exciting ideas in there.I read no internet feedback at all. No Reddit, Twitter, nothing about it, so when someone does tell me that they like it, it is a genuine delight because I'm basically in a vacuum, and my wife won't listen, so I don't know.It's very fun on the ground, like you were saying. It is three interesting people stealing interesting stuff from a cool place. There is just something that you were talking about when it comes to escapism where it's just, escapism as a genre is a reflection of the society from which you're trying to escape, right?Right.I think that you're pulling out some interesting strings in the show when it comes to how creative work is valued, how it's not, how people engage with it, how it's not how people engage with creators. I'd love to hear a little bit more on how you feel about that.What specifically?I can't help but notice that at the time that AI is attempting to replicate a lot of the creative efforts of people who really try at making art, you have an element of the show that's talking a little bit, I think, or at least reflecting a little bit of some of that subtle change.It's weird, right? That was not a conversation when it started. It's moving very rapidly. The idea that a computer could do a reasonable facsimile of me, Justin McElroy? I'm not exactly like a once-in-a-generation talent. I'm like a bunch of SNICK and Pee-wee's Playhouse, and then I had an acting major, and you stir all those together. I'm not one of the A-listers there. I feel like a computer could get me pretty quickly, honestly, but seeing that start to take place, that's been tough, right? Because I didn't ever think that would happen to me. I still don't for me, specifically, but there's definitely a future where this stuff is algorithmically generated. It's scary. It freaks me out.I have AI characters in the story and a lot of those AI characters, we call them “hard light,” and it's basically a hologram that has feeling, that can feel things, tactile, and they're very much having conversations about sentience and what it is to be alive. We have a few different characters and classes of people who are trying to break out of that idea, that if you have been created by someone else, are you devoid of creative energy? Can creative energy exist being created by a computer? Again, there's a nice thing about this: I don't have any answers. I'm just doing a role-playing podcast. You can think about it all you want in your own time. I've just got to fill 60 minutes and then I'm out.A computer doing a reasonable facsimile, like animatronics, are a fundamental element of the history of theme parks.Yeah, and those have continued to improve. When you look at it, Lincoln was the first one, and that was very much a Walt Disney passion project, wanting to create a Lincoln that could be entertaining on its own.There was so much work that went into that, and such a big valley between the real and the fake, and that valley obviously has continued to shrink. Animatronics were a big part of what I was thinking about with Steeplechase. Specifically, the Carousel of Progress is an attraction at Disney World, and it is the only attraction at Disney World, as far as I know, that was directly worked on by Walt Disney, because it was created for the '64 World's Fair and then it was adapted to the form it finds itself now in Walt Disney World.It is the stage show that has had the most performances of any show in America. It's about a family through the generations, and basically the stage is split into a four-quadrant pie and the audience is in a big ring that moves around to the different quadrants, which is the same family in different eras.I started thinking about how these animatronics have done this show more times than anybody on earth. If you start to let your imagination go a little bit, especially with the AI stuff happening, you're like, "Well, what if they realize that?"You know what I mean? What happens when they're like, "Wow, I'm tired of doing this show over and over again"? And I find that a really interesting thing to think about.That's really fun. Again, it's definitely worth checking out. It's a good entrance point, I think, if folks are interested in checking out the podcast.Yeah, all of our arcs are sort of self-contained. “Steeplechase” is a fine place to start if you can deal with me shaking off the jitters for the first three episodes.It's great stuff. Last thing I wanted to throw on the table is that you've been doing graphic novel adaptations of the first The Adventure Zone arc, Balance. How's that been? You just have a new one out this year. I think there's a new one coming out next year.Usually, about one a year.How's that experience been?It's amazing. Honestly, it's a weird project where so much of me is in it from where we did The Adventure Zone, but it's such a team project. Obviously, Carey Pietsch, she's the artist for the series, she's bringing so much to it and creating so much of the visual language of that world. My dad, Clint McElroy, has been a comic book writer for many, many, many years, so he's really taken the lead on it, and I'm mainly tweaking the dialogue from my characters, putting in more boner jokes and stuff.It's funny because they were so wildly successful. I think the first two or three were number one New York Times bestsellers on a specific chart, like a pretty specific chart, which no one ever puts on the book jacket, right? New York Times bestseller in self-help paperback trade version number eight. No, but this is a number one, I could say; yes, I'm a number one New York Times bestselling author, and what I did was I told my dad to make these few jokes better.That is why in my freaking obituary, it'll say number one New York Times bestselling author, because I told my dad that "Kenny Chesney might be a funnier reference here than Jimmy Buffett. Why don't we do Kenny Chesney?" Okay, great. Here's your bestseller plaque. No, but they don't send you bestseller plaques. My dad made one for me for Christmas. It was beautiful. I have it hanging up and I can tell people like, "Yeah, I punched up my dad's jokes. No problem."Wow. Justin McElroy, New York Times bestselling author.Number one. Sorry.Number one.Sorry. Thank you. You don't want to be that guy, but...I apologize. Justin McElroy, number one New York Times bestselling author on a specific chart.Several-time number one. No.Five-time.Five-time.Where can folks find you? Where can they enjoy more of your work?My manager gets mad at me because I always give people the wrong address, but it's themcelroy.family.

EstoBro and TV are fully prepared to lay the Tampa Bay Rays' baseball season to rest (1:00) due to the fiasco that has unfolded with Wander Franco and Shane McClanahan; more specifically on the former. The Gents have some major relief over the matter, with football season right around the corner and their participation in their first fantasy draft of the season. With a shortened month of August, the Gents wish to discuss the latest in film and video games. First, with the latest installment of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (19:30) that was released earlier in the month. EstoBro and TV share how this franchise has returned to the traditional standard of, 'kids having fun' type storyline, especially when animated features bring major franchises to the silver screen. EstoBro finally watched Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 as TV comes in with the commentary with James Gunn's full takeover of the DCEU is in full effect (33:05). Changing topics to video games, EstoBro acknowledges that the new Baldur's Gate III has a solid chance of upsetting the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for 'Game of the Year' (46:40), but TV has a rebuttal as the pair dissect the differences of the two RPGs. EstoBro also could not hesitate to break down what happened in last week's Pokémon Presents (57:10) confirming information that the fans already knew, yet somehow still revealed new information for the DLC release for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Finally, the show returns to its original roots with a classic 'Who has the munchies?' segment that the snack wrap has returned...but not at McDonald's (73:15). Burger King has revealed the Royal Crispy which looks to be very similar to what was once the beloved chicken snacking item, and TV is not too pleased about it. Interact with the Gents of the podcast on the following social media platforms:TwitterInstagramFacebookTumblrEmail: estobrotvpod@gmail.com

He was with attending a split bachelor/bachelorette party that was centered around the final NFL game of the season between the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Eagles. An extraordinary event to attend indeed, but it does not match the excitement TV has for the bachelor party he will be throwing for EstoBro this summer. Post the salutations, the Gents are excited to share the lineup reveal of Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival (10:45), which will be the major event the EstoBro is celebrating his 'last hurrah' held by TV. Both hosts are excited to see music acts of all kinds, and even represent hard for DJ Diesel aka Shaquille O'Neal. If you are 'heading to the farm' this summer, be sure to look for the Gents of the podcast! During the College Football Playoff dominance of the University of Georgia, the Gents wanted to highlight the reveal of Kang the Conqueror and MODOK in the latest trailer reveal for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (23:50). The shifted focus on football is the only sports topic the Gents want to focus on with the ending of the regular season and shift to playoffs (35:15). With the show being held in Tampa, EstoBro also enables the question to TV to see if Tom Brady can lead the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to another championship and claim his eighth Super Bowl ring? (41:20) Finally, it is a rare occurrence to have the 'Who has the munchies?' segment mash with the 'Meme Wars' over Mattress Mack losing $3.1 million on a bet for Texas Christian Horned Frogs to win the CFP, only to be on the butt-end of the latest TikTok trend of the "Whopper, Whopper" jingle made famous by Burger King (49:00).

'Do you remember...' is not just the beginning of a song's lyrics that celebrate autumn finally arriving, hence why TV is hype for new video games to come this holiday season (1:00). However, EstoBro is hesitant if he should still invest or finally join the PC master race. With significant video game news hitting the web this week, TV also shed light on Rockstar's server being breached that leaked Grand Theft Auto 6 and EstoBro running a recap on Nintendo Direct with Goldeneye finally importing to the Nintendo Switch (12:40). The Gents also recap the D23 Expo that revealed next year's content releases from Disney (33:50), including the internet has absolutely no chill over the live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid. They also recap the first two weeks of fantasy football (45:50) especially the results in the podcast league. TV's chances of repeating as champion seem to be in jeopardy, as he also hints to the listening audience that the podcast's fantasy basketball league invitation is now open.  EstoBro addresses the Meme Wars (54:30) being dragged into the British Empire after the passing of Queen Elizabeth II. Again, the 'no chill' factor on how the internet can be during current events just goes to show what direction we are going as a human race...god can truly only save her majesty and not her royal subjects left here on Earth.If you are interested in joining us for fantasy basketball this season, be sure to contact us on the following social media pages:TwitterInstagramFacebookTumblrEmail: estobrotvpod@gmail.com

EstoBro and TV return from the 'holiday' break by analyzing the wrap of the two-part finale of Stranger Things (5:00), and ***SPOILERS*** how music once again has prevailed to be a major attention grabber in a social media presence. After breaking bread on how The Gents spent their holiday, they give thanks for the other major holiday that is more modern: Prime Day (12:40), and how it is cutting into the market for gamers of all backgrounds. With deals for gamers everywhere, both EstoBro and TV seem conflicted that maybe it is time to finally join the PC-Master race...but, it will not happen before this next basketball season (25:10). EstoBro can finally get hyped with TV to celebrate the next edition of NBA 2K, which fill feature the legendary Michael Jordan to celebrate the season that correlates with 2023. The Gents also pay their respects to Kazuki Takahashi (33:35), creator of the manga for the popular Yu-Gi-Oh franchise and what the major impact he contributed to nerd culture. Brining back the attention towards basketball, TV educates EstoBro on the reason why Kevin Durant has not been traded yet (40:50); however, EstoBro believes it is important to discuss the MLB All-Star selection and the midway point of the current season (54:45). The show wraps with the 'Who has the munchies?' segment with EstoBro's discovering a food truck opening in the Tampa Bay area called the Krispy Rooster that had some delicious chicken and waffles (69:10), and southern cooking that will be taking over the area soon. TV believes that Bojangles deserves their respect in the Chicken Sandwich Wars.

It is clear that the Gents are both learning how nerdy and hilarious their better halves are, but that's the one of the guilty pleasure reasons why they keep them around. After the show formalities and recap of the Gents' week, especially how EstoBro spending Father's Day with his father (13:30). With the US Open happening over the same weekend, both Gents spent some time on the golf course and both share some funny moments that transpired during their outings. With major sports on the brain, EstoBro shares the release of the latest Nintendo title: Mario Strikers Battle League Football that dropped on the Switch earlier in the month (21:50). With a great deal of interest lingering between the Gents, there are some elements that EstoBro throws shade about Nintendo limiting this title to other elements that could enhance the fan experience of this game. With other nerdy elements that TV wants to acknowledge is the return of vintage music that shows up in popular television (33:25) and how it relates to other dynamics in culture. Due to Stranger Things returning over the summer, Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" has returned to the top charts in pop music. EstoBro even shares how much the song has influenced other elements of music, including being sampled in hip-hop and remixed in EDM tracks. Conversation on how music getting intertwined with sports shifts the conversation towards sports (44:00) first breaking down small elements of baseball, especially with the Tampa Bay Rays just playing the New York Yankees and other relative topics. EstoBro wants to hear TV admit how right he was about the Golden State Warriors returning to glory as they won their fourth NBA Finals in less than a span of a decade (50:00). This conversation sparks the debate of putting Stephen Curry as one of the greatest players of all time, including a conversation that bring to the attention that Curry is the player that has truly rivaled LeBron James during the two players careers. Returning back to golf, the Gents give their respect to Mat Fitzpatrick for winning the US Open (70:20), and also discuss the conflict the PGA is facing with LIV Golf taking away their competition. Discussion in the 'Who has the munchies?' segment turns the attention on EstoBro's experience with a personal chef cooking for his family for Father's Day (83:00).

EstoBro and TV definitely go down the rabbit hole on talking all things video games (26:00), and how the state of their play is gamers as they embrace their 30s. An interesting topic regarding fantasy sports (42:05), the title of the episode explains the fallout on what happened between professional baseball players Tommy Pham and Joc Pederson with their fantasy football league last year. The Gents also point their attention of an update of the NBA Finals and the Stanley Cup Playoffs, with full favoritism of the local team and the Tampa Bay Lightning (50:00). It has been a while since EstoBro and TV had the munchies during the podcast (65:05), so they definitely talk shop on how summer is here and how grilling season is in full effect.

EstoBro and TV celebrate the first year of the podcast being released with a special episode featuring Young Jaimé. The Gents had to bring back the original gang to look back on the very first year of the podcast. After the brief salutations, the Gents start reflecting on how far the show has come along (7:00) since the Pilot. TV does not hesitate to start to nerd out on the show (9:30) discussing live-action anime and video games series that will get underway filming. After much confusion on where Young Jaimé finished One Piece, EstoBro also teases his former producer on how far the Nintendo Switch has come (14:30) with Smash Bros. Ultimate still being a hot topic. EstoBro also reflects on shows named after popular rap songs (26:00), as music is agreed to be a subject discussed in future episodes. At last, the show returns to the original topic discussing sports (35:00) and what the Gent are passionate about when referring to the main headlines when regarding this topic.From everyone at the EstoBro TV Podcast, we thank you for joining us on our journey with our first year under our belts. We look forward to sharing this podcast with you for many years to come!

The Gents are back to business as usual and are getting by with new friends in the making of the podcast. After TV reflects on his vacation, he first starts to break down the NCAA Men's title game between Gonzaga and Baylor (5:57) before breaking down the saga Kevin Durant faced from the nation last week that was considered highly problematic (10:10). EstoBro is more than excited that baseball has started back up, but he continues to break down what is wrong with the sport. He goes back-and-forth with TV about how to fix the longevity of the game (22:00) and figure out how to fix the rule changes that were supposed to make baseball games run faster. The Gents break down the reaction of the latest film Godzilla vs. Kong on HBO Max (31:00), and how the streaming service stays winning post the release of the Snyder Cut, the potential release of Space Jam: A New Legacy, and many more special releases coming to the network. EstoBro has no sympathy for Young Jaimé regarding the end of Attack on Titan for this year as another anime debate takes over the podcast (41:10). The Chicken Sandwich Wars are getting out of hand with the over surplus of chicken sandwiches, but the Gents cannot get enough of these culinary delicacies and want to try them all (49:50).

The Gents return after a short-term hiatus with a special live show live from the 99th Avenue Studios in Tampa, FL! TV spent the past couple of weeks in town with EstoBro visiting while Young Jaimé was having a hard time getting it together for the show, but all is well that ends well and the show is back to business as usual. The Gents jumped into the exact moment where the tournament of NCAA Men's March Madness (4:48) is going on during the Sweet Sixteen, followed by the results on what happened after the NBA trade deadline (6:50) with TV and EstoBro as winners and Young Jaimé simping over Lou Williams. EstoBro was more than thrilled that TV joined his dynasty-fantasy baseball league this season, and the pair cannot wait for baseball season to get underway (21:15); predicting what the results will be from teams in the MLB. Everyone got the munchies during the show, so TV ordered KFC to celebrate that restaurant's win in the first annual "Chicken Sandwich Wars" (32:00) that was assisted by friends of the podcast: Commissioner Comic Book, Mandy Hatake, and Hello Nurse! The panel that participated in the Chicken Sandwich Wars also assisted the Gents with a side-project the Gents had with the 4 Nerds 1 Podcast (46:45), as they were tasked to determine which female comic book characters were the most symbolic in honor of Women's History Month. Where the Gents found the winner of their bracket, the winner of this tournament will be decided on the 4 Nerds 1 Podcast with other contributors in future collaboration. For the remainder of the episode, the Gents breaks down Zack Snyder's cut of Justice League being released and the ripple effect that it has across the Internet (80:20); even further with discussing the reaction after the red band trailer dropped for The Suicide Squad (93:30).

The “chicken sandwich wars” are over… for now.  Popeyes had the most successful product launch in their history with their new chicken sandwich.  All it took was a couple of tweets between them and rival Chick-fil-A and the wars started, leading to long lines and eventually selling out completely.  Kate Taylor, retail correspondent for Business Insider, joins us for the chicken sandwich craze and also how Popeyes employees hated life during the past two weeks. Next, the Justice Department's inspector general has concluded that former FBI Director James Comey violated FBI policies in his handling of memos documenting private conversations with President Trump which led to the appointment of a special counsel.  He broke the rules by giving a friend one of the memos with directions to leak it to the media.  Olivia Beavers, national security reporter at The Hill, joins us for more. Finally, what happens when you don't pay a hospital bill?  About 43 million Americans have unpaid medical debt typically from seeing out-of-network doctors, hospital stays, and ambulance rides.  Olga Khazan, writer at the Atlantic, joins us for some of the lengths that hospitals and debt collectors go to get you to pay up.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com
