Brunch

Sportswriter Dan Clark got dragged for tweeting he charges podcasts for appearances, so we offered to pay him to come on our podcast. In a twist everyone should have seen coming, this is a nice guy and the internet is horrible. Also, Pete has a bad experience with StubHub, DJ has a universally beloved idea for Patreon episodes and we start watching Hacks.  Support the podcast: patreon.com/listentobrunch

The Applebee's commercial gives the boys some brilliant ideas. We remember the great Norm MacDonald, have questions about the Met Gala and Pete has an admission about Olivia Rodrigo.  Support the podcast/get weekly bonus episodes: patreon.com/listentobrunch. 

The bad boys break down a buzzworthy red carpet moment and remember the great Michael K. Williams. Pete sees Don't Breathe 2 and explains it to a terrified DJ. ABBA is back, which leads to a ranking of our favorite ABBA songs and yet another Mamma Mia 2 discussion.  Support the podcast/get bonus Dawson's Creek episodes: patreon.com/listentobrunch 

**FREE BONUS EPISODE PREVIEW** Creek Speak is back once again and this time the boys are discussing S5E14 ("Guerilla Filmmaking"). Dawson is hard at work on a movie, Joey is hard at work on her professor, and Pacey absolutely sucks at working the boom mic. Full episode at www.patreon.com/listentobrunch

Pete has a clean bill of health. There are major music developments, as Houndmouth has released DJ's favorite song and Kacey Musgraves is going full Misty. This mainly leads to another lengthy discussion about John Mayer's marketing. The boys also see the "spiritual sequel" to Candyman. 

One half of the podcast has COVID. One half of the podcast is now selling candles. 100% of the podcast hated Adam Driver's new movie and can't seem to keep up with the Ted Lasso discourse.

The bad boys have seen Nicolas Cage's latest and they're head over heels. Also, Rob Thomas and Carlos Santana have reunited. (This episode had to be edited down because an announcement made on it had to be delayed. There is a hint at it in the episode if you can find it.)  Get our Dawson's Creek recaps and bonus episodes on patreon.com/listentobrunch. 

While taping Patreon content we realize the vibes are too strong so we make it this week's episode. Is heavy cream the most underrated dairy product? Suicide Squad is good. Dawson's Creek is best. 

DJ is finding ways to repurpose the phrase "here comes the pizza." Matt Damon should probably stop talking for a little bit. Ted Lasso rocks. The new Woodstock '99 documentary is the stuff of nightmares.  Support the show on Patreon: www.patreon.com/listentobrunch

Ben and Jen are on the cover of People magazine and it sounds like Lopez sources APPROVE. Also, we read the rest of the magazine. Support the podcast and get bonus episodes weekly: patreon.com/listentobrunch

Arch nemesis and corporate bully Dude With Sign is up to his bullying ways again, and this time it's about coffee. Sob Rock is growing on us. We've got an idea for a book that we legitimately might make. M. Night Shyamalan has a new movie coming and there's a Hollywood friendship that needs to make its way onto the podcast.  

As the classic-sounding title suggests, the bad boys are devastated by a rainy July in New England. Escape Room 2 is out this week. If you could have one article of clothing be new every day, what would it be?

Has a podcast ever been recorded without the internet? Now one has. In what was intended to at least partially be a Forever Purge episode, the Bad Boys never once mention the movie because they are still fascinated by the Dick Richards era of Jaws preproduction. Also, the second season of I Think You Should Leave is an instant classic. Support the podcast/get bonus episodes: patreon.com/listentobrunch 

Pete has a birthday and potentially a mean friend. Weather has folks trying to beat the heat. It's Jaws Week and the Bad Boys are hung up on an extremely fun Jaws fact. Michael Keaton's name history is fascinating. 

We finally got our hands on the Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich Pringles just as a controversial chip tweet leads to in-show tweeting. Carl Nassib makes history. What song would you perform a la Dave Chappelle/Foo Fighters? People are selling chicken McNuggets for thousands of dollars on eBay. Support the show! patreon.com/listentobrunch 

A new picture of Ben and Jen has the bad boys wondering why every picture of two celebrities is described as "cozy" or "steamy." Pete and DJ have begun lying to each other for fun. More chicken sandwich/BTS meal talk, plus a random Dawson's Creek review (S4 E19: "Late"). Support the podcast: patreon.com/listentobrunch

New Lorde is on the way and people are freakin'. Bo Burnham's new special looks great and is very Father John Misty. 

After a brief discussion about popular kids at soccer bars, the bad boys review the Friends reunion, Mare of Easttown and A Quiet Place Part II. Randy Havens is an impromptu guest for a heated Dog Joker review.

Dog Joker and A Quiet Place II are upon us. We review Lena Waithe's season of Master of None and discuss a cancelable classic song. All of that is done after we talk about the Saw universe for a little while. Support the podcast and get Friday episodes: patreon.com/listentobrunch

Folks, we've done it...we have FINALLY returned to the movie theater. We saw Spiral (some of us saw it twice) and ate chicken tenders. It's a great time to be alive.
