No need for a blooper reel for this show! Lol it’s all in there!
Seriously tho, we need a spouse edition, where Winston and Whitney join in! ❤❤
Yessss! Doubt Winston would join in though!
This is a great idea!!
@@tduck828 I saw him join a Ramsey episode recently, so, he might.
I’ll never forget a childhood dinner a friend was over and asked “can you please pass the AL sauce” instead of A1, we all died laughing. AL is back again 😂😂😂
My wife and her family have called it AL sauce forever. It is pretty funny.
One of the best eps, Martha Stewart, Prison crocs, Breaking Bad, Mickey Mantle, John Wick and AL, lol
😂😂😂😂😂 Not George with the “You’re a Good Mom ❤” comment to make Rachel feel better 😂😂😂😂 This is why I LOVE this Podcast…
That A.I. / “Al” moment was funny 😂😂😂
This is exactly why George and Rachel are my favorite! I can’t stop laughing! 😂
This is possibly the most entertaining set of moments I've ever watched online. I might have cried a little laughing with Rachel imagining some guy named Al protecting us consumers! The relatability, humor and intelligence of George and Rachel is what makes this podcast The Best. Plus, they screw up now and then like the rest of us....
I agree Rachel about the fear of being convicted for a crime you didn't commit. One of my son's was convicted for a crime he was not committed and his wife lied to the courts and then confessed to me that she did afterward. Pray for my son and his family.
OMG that was the absolute best… our friend “Al” behind the scenes 💀🤣
The worst is when they scam the elderly. My grandma got scammed through a text from the "bank". So sad.
I’ve never understood spending hundreds of dollars for brand names. My $15 purse does everything a $500 purse does.
Good show
My husband and I bought a stolen car last year. We paid 30k cash *at a bank* and when we went to the DMV they said the title was fake (It even had a watermark and we saw the man’s fake ID that had his picture on it) and the car had been stolen. They never caught the guys and we were just so thankful to be safe. We found the car on FB market place. Be safe out there guys!
Whoa baby!
FB marketplace is mostly scams. Sucks.
This is insane!! I had a similar experience on FB marketplace. I purchased a car in cash and long story short I became a victim of a title jumping scheme. Likewise, I turned out safe and just thankful to be alive 🙏🏼
I heard so many horror stories about FB Marketplace and Craigslist car scams, I went to a dealership. Better to get the runaround and headaches from used car salesmen than completely scammed by a fraudster
@@Mansini77 carvana sold a stolen car to one of their customers. And a small car dealer said they had a incident like that too.
Great episode, guys! The part about jail had me laughing out loud. Your comedic abilities are becoming more honed 😂
😂😂😂 You guys should never be left without adult supervision 😂😂😂
Great way to unwind! I work as a 911 calltaker/dispatcher. The scam calls are really so very sad. You got some of them.
Rachel with the silent laugh again- it’s the best 😂
I'm glad Rachel made that mistake first, so now we know! Thank you Rachel, hilarious 😂
"He went full John Wick"
"Who?"
Crickets...... 😂
New favorite podcast for sure. Just moved and have about 20 minute commute to work… How about more than just Thursdays!!!!
I am in tears over the AI thing. I’ve done that before too (30 btw) so it was hilarious, but I also relate 😂😂 The I does look like an l! I’m with you, Rachel 😂
My husband an I love listening to yall while we work. Yall crack us up! Wish there were more episodes during the week!
Me too!!
SAME! My only problem with this show is that it isn't EVERY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I look forward to this every Thursday - I always know I will be laughing on the way to work when I am listening!
George I'm with you on the North Face jackets and Uggs combo. Bunch of snotty spoiled college biddies... 😅
I’ve always heard of SMHH but never checked it out…until about 2 weeks ago and I know I’ve binged 50 episodes 😂😂
Totally love this show. Thanks for always being real.
I love this show! I love that you keep Rachel cracking up in the show... y'all are doing an awesome job! Keep up the GREAT work!!!
Glad to see this on youtube. Love listening in the car ride home from work, but always thought this would be good on TH-cam at home as well.
.
I love you Rachel!!! I would have missed that too. So glad this isn't scripted!!
Love this show!!! Look forward to listening in for the best laughs! This was a good idea! 🎉
I love this show! I learn things and laugh. Look forward to this every week!
17:27 AL!! Top moment of this pod!! 😂😂😂
Favorite day of the week when I get to listen to this podcast!!!!!
I was laughing so hard I was crying on today's episode!!😆😆
You guys are awesome!!
Thank you for this show! It has been a long hard week and I couldn't stop laughing this morning!
These shows are super funny. I hope this podcast/show takes off. I really enjoy the laughs and the actual information!
I have watched and listened to this like 10 times! I’ll never get over AL! 😂
Love love love your show. Great stuff!!!!
George and Rachel, you make my life so enjoyable. Love you both. 😄
Very entertaining, I love these episodes.
Winston doing stuff like a boss
Love it you 2. You had me rolling A.I. that is so me missing something and it going over my head lol
Omg love these two!!!!!!
Hands down my favorite episode 😂😂😂😂
Rachel-Don't feel bad. You're cutting edge/ahead of the curve. A.I. strives to be Al in our lives. That's it's goal:-)
Budget-friendly happy hour! Love it. ❤👋🔥
Love this!
RC you are so funny! 😅Love this episode. I like how you guys are just real. Bloopers and all.
I can't stop laughing. "I know what happens in the back of those chicken restaurants!" Really!? Rofl!
I’m Aussie, and growing up my father had Billabong knock-off clothing labelled, “Billyhong,” which we bought at the local markets. It was always (and still is) something we joke about as a family. But the clothes lasted well and he loved them lol. Last Christmas I bought him actual Billabong shirts. Let’s see if they last as long as the knock-offs 😂
Love this show !
I laughed out loud when Rachel called the AI AL. I think that's what I'll call it from now on. Hahaha
I seriously haven’t laughed cried in so long until this AI episode lmao😂 and George is hilarious he’s so quick witted slapstick comedy. I love listening to them!!
Best episode yet!
I listened to the podcast and then had to come to TH-cam to see Rachel's face during the AI/A.I. section! You are a good mom, Rachel! 🤣😂🥰
Same!
This one was really funny!
Wow, Rachel so many bloopers for you. Mickey Mantle, John Wick???😅
Not Mickey Manilow! 😂 I flatlined ☠️
Not me thinking of hockey when they said Stanley Cups lol, I was totally not lost for a second 😅
I love Rachel. She is so me. I can totally relate. She is so funny in a really good way. Of course, George is very entertaining, too, in his own way.
Rachel, I adore you!! I was cracking up just as hard as you were!!!😂😂😂 You would fit in with my girls night girls!!! 😂😊😄😊
Ok loving this episode 😂
I’m now going to call A.I. Al😂😂😂😂
Just about spit my coffee out with AI! Definitely something I would have done too :)
You guys crack me up! I love the banter. Just so you know (from this old lady) "dupe" has been a thing on You Tube before Tick Tack was even a thing. 😂
Lol tik tok 😅
The coolest my classmate did was use a plastic bag as his bag and wrote "Jansport". Very brilliant!
❤❤❤ So funny love this show
Good stuff!!!
This the best podcast I laughed so hard with this show Rachel you are the best the 2 of you together❤😂
Thanks for the laughs once again 😂 the “Al” teehee. Love you Rachel and George ❤
Gosh and yes, we’re living in such crazy times! Evil. Stay wise y’all!!
That. Was. Hilarious! I love it when Rachel laughs uncontrollably!!
“Al… Gorithm” I CANNOT 😂😂😂😂
LOL. I laughed my way through this one!
WINSTON WICK. WOULD PAY TO SEE THAT.
George, that big guy in prison will either become your protector or your boyfriend. 😅
And yes 👍 the Target Birk dupes are great, comfy, cute and have lasted! Have a couple of pairs.
I know the yeti tumbler, I got an ozark trail one at walmart for like $7 and then saw weeks later a video comparison and the ozark trail one kept ice longer than the yeti branded one. Still have it today years later and use it daily.
Mickie Manolo😂😂😂😂
I am forever going to think of “AL” when I see AI 😂🤣😂
You two have the best chemistry. AI .... 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I listened to the podcast version of this episode and had to come watch the video part of the AI mix up 🤣
Love the show!
I did the same thing lol we were hollering laughing!
Me too!
I read it as AL sometimes too, don’t feel bad Rachael, your response gave me a good laugh though
I can call you Betty and you can call me Al!🤣🤣🤣
When I had free TH-cam I got duped into so many scam type of sales from the advertisers I figured out it cost me more that an annual membership. So I decided to pay for TH-cam and not watch all those awful commercials. I'm sad TH-cam raised their price by $2 a month. I even got my solar panels from the ads - I so wish I didn't have that debt right now!
I had Payless dupe Chuck Taylor's (Converse), and dupe Doc Martin's in the 90's, lol.
Prison crocs 😂
Such a great show! I can’t stop laughing
Love this. 'AL' got me 🤣
I'll never have to worry about any of the brands named.
Ever.
I'm 45 and live in Ireland. I remember my Dad using the expression 'You've been duped' when I was a child. So it's not a new thing. Meaning 'To be tricked or scammed. Believed to originate among the Italian New Yorkers.
My LV bags i bought in my 20s are the only things i still own, besides my house. No regrets
I still have some Liz Claiborne pieces from the 90s. They are classic.
If you get scammed, cash app doesn't care and won't do anything to help you get your money back. Plus watch out about numbers you call thinking you are calling certain companies to resolve an issue because it can be scammers acting like they work for that company and they can get your cash app info, banking info, or personal information.
Don't knock Eastpak backpack. I carried mine all of high school all of college and I gave it to my daughter to use when she was in school! That's 25 years of use!
AL!!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😭😭😭😭 omg I’m crying! That was sooo funny!!! Oh Rachel!!!! 😘😘
THEN George! “ your a great mom”
When I was in school, it was shoes. Name brand shoes. I wanted them but never did. Even now shoes are not my thing.
😁 I made the mistake of buying Angles Cat Bowls - like it was an emergency. Love the show late to it, but I am catching up. 🙃
You guys are so funny 😂😂😂
😂😂😂. Al. Lol. Poor Rachel. Y’all keep me laughing.
George is legit hilarious 😂
You guys should try a Paloma it’s delicious ❤
"AL"😂😂😂
FUN! Thanks
😂 George is so funny! 😂😂
