Justin, Travis and Griffin McElroy from My Brother, My Brother and Me have recruited their dad Clint for a campaign of high adventure. Join the McElroys as they find their fortune and slay an unconscionable number of ... you know, kobolds or whatever in ... The Adventure Zone.

Join host Scott Aukerman (“Comedy Bang! Bang!” on IFC, “Mr. Show”) for a weekly podcast that blends conversation and character work from today’s funniest comedians. While Scott begins by traditionally interviewing the celebrities, the open-door policy means an assortment of eccentric oddballs can pop by at any moment to chat, compete in games, and engage in comic revelry. With all that, and regular bonus episodes, we bet your favorite part will still be the plugs!

Elliott Kalan, Dan McCoy, and Stuart Wellington are friends who’ve decided to express that friendship not by doing productive or enjoyable things, but instead by watching critical or commercial flops, and then discussing those terrible movies for you to enjoy in your ear-holes. Although, honestly, most of the time they just talk about random bullshit.

The Giant Bomb staff discuss the latest video game news and new releases, taste-test questionable beverages, and get wildly off-topic in this weekly podcast.

My Brother, My Brother and Me is an advicecast for the modern era featuring three real-life brothers: Justin, Travis and Griffin McElroy. For roughly five-sixths of an hour each week, with new episodes dropping every Monday, the brothers McElroy will answer any query sent our way, each fielding questions falling into our respective areas of expertise. We operate like a streamlined, advice-generating machine. It’s both terrifying and humbling to behold.

    I can't remember if I mentioned it last thread but I listened to Trends Like These and it was pretty good! It's a nice little bite sized podcast. I'll probably keep listening to it because Travis and Brent seem like they do well together and I'm usually done listening to all my podcasts by wednesday anyway. Gives me a little something at the end of the week.

    also since this got stuck as the very last post in the old thread

    http://www.whmpodcast.com/2015/05/episode-204-blind-fury.html
    On this week's episode, the gang has nothing but love for 1989's incredible White Guy Karate masterpiece, Blind Fury! Why do all movies with blind characters have other characters "test" them to see if they're actually blind? How lame is this terrible wimp of a villain, MacCready? And how is Chris not impressed by a blind guy chopping a flying squash in half? PLUS: How many Academy Award-winning films have ripped this movie off? Answer: At least two.

    Blind Fury stars Rutger Hauer, Terry O'Quinn, Brandon Call, Noble Willingham, Randall 'Tex' Cobb, Nick Cassavetes Meg Foser, and Shô Kosugi; directed by Phillip Noyce.

    it's really good

    WHM's been on a roll lately, I think

    This is pretty true of a lot of school-age history, though podcasts have the benefit of not having to cover the entire revolution in like 10 class periods.

    It's pretty short, only around 10 minutes. You'll know why when you hear it.

    It's still pretty great though.

    So far the response from Jeff anytime someone's asked has been basically an increasingly exasperated "YOU WILL KNOW WHEN THERE IS SOMETHING TO KNOW." so... sometime, eventually. (I mean, I feel like it can't be that far out or else they're going to lose a bunch of their initial candidates since it's taken so long.)

    What is the podcast, on the whole
    oh!

    it started back in like 2006/2007 and it was these three kinda nerdy white guys from the tech world (one mostly works in film) who met on twitter and decided to start a comedy podcast together

    it starts with them sort of having bits, like pretending to be looking for sponsors, but mostly it's just them starting with a topic and then just going on huge hilarious tangents all the time while talking about their lives

    it's really hard to put it into words because it's really strange and hilarious

    but i recommend listening to "The Good Part": http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/good-part

    or "Vachina" first http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/vachina

    they also have four live episodes that are also great

    eventually they kinda just stopped updating to the point where one of them confirmed they were done on twitter

    but then they apparently released this 10 minute episode which i hope is a sign of things to come

    Well I was hoping it wouldn't be just another set of nerdy white guys but it seems like there is some cool stuff in there so I'll probably check it out anyway.

  • I Win SwordfightsI Win Swordfights all the traits of greatness starlight at my feetRegistered User regular
    *inhales sharply* yeah i was a little worried about that

    and now i'm all self conscious about the episodes i posted

    but i will say that i am a person who does not like podcasts and has never found another podcast that i actually like

    but i have listened to every episode of you look nice today over and over and over again

    you can also just start from the beginning, maybe you should do that: http://youlooknicetoday.com/episode/morning-powder

    it's a good episode too, it's just that as they go on they get more comfortable and relaxed with it

    like one of the guys actually became a relatively successful comedian because of it, and he and another, merlin mann, do a comedy show together that always does really well

    merlin is actually like a tech and podcast personality apparently but i don't follow that world

    it's a good thing
