    Has anyone ever tried explaining this show to a friend? "Yeah so it's a show about nothing. Every single joke is an inside joke. Everyone hates the host. It's honestly not good but it's my favorite podcast to ever exist"

      The only person to whom I’ve even dared to mention this show is a close friend who’s also a Jake and Amir (and Headgum sketches) fan, so I knew he’d get it. But if I ever feel bold enough o mention it to someone else, I’m definitely copying and pasting your description. XD

I’m going to read it out loud show the type of HATE I get around here” he keeps going on for hours, getting drunk and reading hate mail from the headgum staff. Or not.
