Blessed be brother
Same thought that went thru my head
Love you dirty doggs ❤
Praise be

Hey dog you ever seen 432 Hertz represented in sand from sound waves? Pretty lit
You just looking for lord baby Gaaaaaaang

We right here dawg
matt and shane are the only guests who pick up on Theo's subtle jokes every time
I remember years ago after the snl shit, Shane went on JrE, and Joe couldnt pick up on anything. I felt bad for Shane because he had some good ones, and they flew over Joe’s TRT balding and shaved head
His pod with Stavros was great too they were riffin
@@fubar5554 Joe is a funny fella when he's in a group like on Protect Our Parks, but one on one he's gotta be missing 85% of the shit most comedians say
Matt with the high pitch Dr Hibbard laugh.
I like how quickly the conversation went from Matt’s divorce to “the Underground Railroad was a sausage party”.
The Rat king and the Shaman. The dynamic duo of the century
These guys keep people like us going...I love you all ❤
What about the King and the Sting? That was a good duo as well, until Theo sunk his dagger into Brendan Schaub's back and ran off with all the viewers.
Don't think Brendan has forgotten about this betrayal. He hasn't. He's biding his time. Watching. Waiting. Itching for the moment, when Theo will get his just deserts. When he will reap what he hath sewn. When the past finally catches up with him.
And then Brendan will get the last laugh.
@@user-wv5ut7hq1qwhat are you rambling on about CTE Brenden kept bringing on people to co host on the show like pedo Chris Delia and Eric griffin and Theo left cause that wasn’t what he signed up for and he’s made it clear he wanted to get out of LA and calling in from Tennessee to do a dying podcast every week with 3 idiots is not a good idea 😂
@@DocEdits_ Say whatever you'd like Theo, but nothing will erase what you did to him. He'll never forgive, nor forget.
I couldn’t have clicked faster
DAWG ROLL CALL LIKE IT UP🔥🔥🔥

Theo adding “Nova Scotians” at 8:12 is the thing that convinced me all of his statements that seem like he might be a moron are actually him being such a genius that he can think of something brilliantly funny to say in real time and not give it away in the slightest. To not even grin as he’s saying that is incredible
He’s a genius for knowing geography?? This doesn’t paint you in a good light.
@@vhscopyofseinfeld Are you aware of the average American's knowledge of geography ?
@@vhscopyofseinfeld He’s a genius comic, yes. Like the OP pointed out, to many it may seem like he’s just spitballing, but it’s clearly formulaic. It’s a very quick witted answer, which can be seen as comedic genius. Also, i’m sure 70% of Americans couldn’t point out Nova Scotia on a map.
@@PeripheryFanboyI’ve been to 37 countries in the past decade, and I can tell you that a vast majority of the world thinks the US is just California, Texas, Florida, and New York. Ignorance about geography is not exclusive to Americans-moreover, geography dictates intercultural exchange, and America has always been relatively siloed from the rest of the world. Rational ignorance.
@@vhscopyofseinfeldYou are definitely not a genius in ANY subject and most definitely not on TH-cam. He's definitely a genius and you are so dumb you just can't comprehend the layers and complexity that is Theo Von.
"Quagmire of intellectual cauldersacking" is a wild sentence 😂
We all been waiting for the shaman to pull up with Theo
Blessed be the dawgs!
@@tyler1735 Blessed be the shaman and the bois
Blessed
There's a semi-gay element to this comment
@@BottomLineBassin2 Indeed, and it's glorious.
“Kid’s are not ripped like they were”
Is the most Matt shit ever even Theo couldn’t handle it lmfao
He's got a point 😂😂
Matt’s hair is getting too grey to be talking like that 😂
Kids are soft and fat now. Back in my day kids had abs and scars.
We had one or two fat kids in my elementary school, one was genetic, his whole family was big boned. The other kid was fat because his parents were both truckers and couldn't cook so it was TV dinners and professional wrestling on in the trailer park.
Dude I don’t know about all that if you anywhere around the grappling community you know these little mfs are getting GOOD jujitsu and wrestling I’m mean some fu kin STUDS but over all he’s probably right cuz most kids ain’t wrestling but the shit is evolving and the kids are just better.
McCusker is literally the best guest to have on. I'm fully convinced there is not a single podcast he wouldn't get on with the host.
I want to see him with Jesse Lee Peterson
I want to see Matt mediate a debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden where he gets to choose the questions
@@ronkledonkanusmoncher564 I wanna see him mediate Putin and Zelensky
"I usually just went home and felt bad for myself for a couple hours" me too, me too 😂
My two favourite black comedians
Only one really is and its the Shaman look it up lol
@@jafellme3024the rat king is black sir
Didn’t expect to crack up so much at this lmao
for the guys that dont get this fucking masterpiece, ill explain it. So basically its funny because theyre not actually black but he just stated that they were black.
@@jafellme3024 1.Born in Philly 2. Black wife 3. Sold durgz
The way Matt talk's about how Shane drove from NY to him every weekend for a year, says a lot about how good of a friend Shane is.
Innit?
you remember when shane was doing the pod with louis ck. and shane started reading for an ad and louie was just like why are you doing this you dont need the money. and shane was like cuz matts gotta feed his family haha
@@thomasstelling9793that was such a good response
They both seem like great friends, Shane talked about Matt letting him stay in his apartment for over a year rent free when he was dead broke
@@noahmulfinger7436 yeah, but Louie responded and played the "heres the thing, i have fuck you money" 'card' by offering to pay to have the episodes ad free.
“Even if I’m a thief, dude, that doesn’t mean you should be gay.”
”True. Two wrongs don’t make a right”
😂😂😂
😆😆😆
“Horton hears a Harriet Tubman” is fucking hilarious
Can’t lie this hyped me up
Saw the thumbnail then liked your comment here wee gooo
hyped us all up doggy
I can’t think of a more elite combo
Why would you lie about it?
@@davidaldridge5716 i mean ... come on brotha shane n matt IS the elite duo
The dawgs are feasting with this one

Absolute smorgasbord of sweet treats for the dawgs
Woof woof

🤣
that whole bird metaphor was genius 😂😂
@ 1:19:39 "my heart just tells me..... I dunno, my heart is re-hearted" 🤣🤣🤣
He's hilarious with turn of phrases
Matt McCusker with Theo is too much chaotic and metaphysical energy to clash in one room. Be blessed dawgz for we are in uncharted territory
It was disappointing
I thought it was hilarious. Even Theos out here having spit takes @@randomdude189
@@randomdude189it was hilarious wtf
@@randomdude189 you might be broken?
Theo spitting out his drink shows how genuinely hilarious General Cusker truly is
Preach brother haha
1:09:35
@@more.art.less.war. Thank you.
I listen to most podcasts, I was wondering why he apologized so many times 😂
@@jroberts1589😊
“The Underground Railroad was a real sausage party?!” That is one of the funniest things I have ever heard . 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've never knew about Matt McCusker but this was one of the funniest podcasts i've ever heard on This Past Weekend
Matt is debatably funnier than Shane you should watch his stuff
Check out Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast brother. Best shit I've ever heard. 😊
Shane is the gateway to Matt
These two men are the GOAT when it comes to weird childhood stories that sound fake, but are probably true
Matt's are 100% true. Theo's are maybe 30%. 😂
@@BrickTop06to this day I wanna think his story of his bully making him bury his shit is fake….
How the hell you just go head and do that ??😂😂
Then again Theo different
A true meeting of the minds we have here
@@1surfpesca_He's told that one so often and so consistently that I can actually believe that story. A lot of the other ones have to be based in reality but extremely exaggerated
@@1surfpesca_Coming from someone who grew up in the rural south, it’s probably all true, and there’s probably a few things he can’t even talk about.
McCuster always delivers
After listening to years of Mssp and Stoner Dad's, it's clear that the McCusker blood line needs it's own tv show
It's McCusker bro
it’s McClusky
General McCuster
Pizzas
the visual of 'open your briefcase, nothing in there' is so funny
Matt allowing Shane to play the straight man is the greatest comedic discovery of all time.
refreshing for Theo to no have to try so hard because he knows that Matt can hold a podcast down. This is the closest to Theo not playing a character and just being himself in a long time.
I noticed that too, seemed like Theo was in character for the first third or so of the pod then took the mask off after he realized Matt disarmed him
@@LordLeoIX The Shaman works in mysterious ways
It will never happen but man I would love if these two had a regulary scheduled pod. And when Shane isn’t busy making the bag he deserves he pops in. Oi it’s getting moist in here.
I'm all for these 2 having at least a monthly podcast
I don't think theo tries so hard. I think he genuinely is in the moment a lot of the times. But when a subject is kinda over and he can feel it, he blanks and is like okay, next subject. I do the same damn thing. He seems very joyful when he gets to make jokes and mess around. But sometimes there's a moment... "next".
Matt really made Theo spit out his drink 😂
Time stamp please.
@@SellLids 1:09:40
😂😂😅😅Theo and his friends used to complete on who can make the kids with Tism spit milk 😂😂😂😂😊😊❤❤
Matt has stories for days 😂😂another Theo ❤❤❤😂😂
Why would you want a time stamp watch the whole episode these 2 are salt of the earth
Im here to confirm pooping and peeing at the same time is possible, only sitting down
I honestly can't believe there aren't more comments about this.
“Off-black” 🤣🤣😭😭😭
Shit had me rollin dawg
The speed at which I clicked on this video almost reached 432 Hz.
😮 how can you tell?!
same here i can hear it
SAME!
Same I heard my thumb whistle a Moroccan haiku
Damn I must be rehearded
“Just because I’m a thief, doesn’t mean you should be gay” 😭😭😂
“Two wrongs don’t make a right”
Can someone time stamp this 😂
@@loganbinnall4236 23:30
@@videowatcher7777 this was nuts fr 😂
@@loganbinnall4236 Nah, just watch the pod. You'll hear it 😂
The best part of Theo’s podcast is reading the comments before you watch and reading the one liners and none of them correlating 😂
The way that Matt talks about raising a family is the same way I feel about trying to grow my Classic World of Warcraft guild.
Hell yea brother
“I’m fly as hell and you hate it bro”
feel the power
“She said she was black, I believed her” 😂😂
I’m not out here looking at paperwork 😂
🤣🤣
Just two of the most genuine, honest, nice guys in comedy hanging out with us. Gah-bless these dawgs.
GOBBLESS
"Im so glad shane and you have each other" is really sweet, some might say its gay but nah, thats true brotherhood. Theo is so wholesome
how gay is a chinamans name
I'm already drenched
Hold my towel brother
It's all good! You can legally be as drenched as you want! 👍
Codeword: DRENCHED
I'm edging to this
Not everyone can afford to be dry all the time
"FYI, meetin' a couple brothers, seems chill - will update" I love Theo
😂😂😂
so fuckin funny bro
I love how considerate Theo is not to hurt peoples feelings. He’s the best person ever honestly
"This place just went outta business, we're good" talking about Rooster Teeth 😂😂
Theo spitting his coffee almost forced my truck into a forest. Fucking hilarious
Bro Your truck almost forced my forest into the ocean

"I don't cry until I'm in 4th gear, usually" 😂
I read this comment just as Theo said it and it hit even harder. 😂
I cry when I think I'm in 4th but I actually put it in 2nd and rpms skyrocket oh dang
432hz baby, spiritual awakening definitely coming, good gonna prevail, love y’all, hope everyone’s doing great
Matt is the white Terrence Howard
Correction, he's the black Terrance Howard.

“No more fucking around time to put your best foot forward and I failed”
Theo breaks out laughing at it
Time stamp?
belfast UK?
@@JB-wd8lw34:25
Deeply relatable and still hilarious
@@Famousi0 Just like "Dublin UK" LMAO!
Matt McCuster consistently being one of the best podcasters.
This is the best podcast episode I’ve heard in a minute, yall don’t even know how much I needed this right now.
Matt- “He was an outside the box thinker” Theo - “Literally” about gay Frederick Douglass 😂
what would gay actor Michael Douglas think about this?
@@welfaiewfb8802he’d say hell yeah dude
Lmfao I just got it 😅 man I'm dumb
@@welfaiewfb8802oh my god it's nicks best friend in the flesh
That was a brilliant joke
Theo’s guests lately have earned him the #1 spot in podcasting in my opinion.
Really? Lol i havent been able to sit through a full episode in a while:// glad to have the Shaman here to fix that though
Thats called being a poser @@juan2three6
His guests have been shit lately, finally something worth listening to
Funny you should say that, look at theos numbers on other podcasts, often the most popular episodes... Lol so... Maybe not huh...
Have you not seen JRE lately? It's been willld lol
“Horton hears a Harriet Tubman or what ever” killllled me
"why is war still legal" lmaoo broooo whaaaaat.
The second take of "Britney, is that her name?" 😂
Yeah that got me
Yeah
Matt is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Loved seeing Him and Theo vibing.
hold up dawg you telling me it’s not normal to piss and shit at the same time??? wtfff
1M views in 4 daysss lets gooo mattttt hope he breaks a mf record
“we have data dumps on each other” is low key funny as fuck
Thinking about it that’s how our family reunions/get together are as well
@@TheMrlittlemack Same here actually lol
Is it?! Is it “low key”…STFU
From higher than a hammock
@@reeflab2221that moment was so funny
Did Theo just say, ‘Nova Scotians’? About people swimming to America 😂😂😂
Funny enough they have to swim to make it straight to Maine
Fuck swimming in that cold ass ocean lmao
Lol we have a ferry to Bar Harbour. BUT sometimes drunk tubers will accidentally float over. I don’t know how good they’d be at life guarding. 😆🤣
you can drive out of Nova Scotia... there is indeed a bridge.
What about the Puerto Ricans that have us citizenship😂😂😂
I LOVE that Shane told him to hook up with Matt on a solo chat and he did it. The power of Shane Gillis spreads wide. ❤
This helped me get through the day. Thank you fellas
"I come from a long line of Irish spazzes" The Shaman
LMAO probably my favorite thing said in this episode
😂😂
36:16 - “He was an outside the box thinker” “Literally” 😂💀
Dude he misses it too, right?
Yeah he was reading the google result. I laughed out loud at work when Theo dropped that lol
Dude said that in friggin 2 seconds. If that ain't some comedy savantism idk what is
😂😂
Dont get it. Can you explain?
Theo's "look that up"s are so funny XD and the fact that homie actually looks this things up is even better
The dawgs gotta show some love on this one 💪🏼 “I got head when I was 10” pure gold 🤣
Theo and Matt being on the same wavelength was awesome. Matt going tier two with Theo at the end means there is another podcast here with them both.
Power god energy for sure
Yeah it was posted on the other channel
Red tier undoubtedly
@@Nunya7211 thanks, for sure Theo and Matt have more to talk about which means we will get more Shaman and the Rat which makes me happy.
The shaman and the rat king. The crossover we all needed 🎉. Blessed be the DAWGS.
Yeah, but this talk about Israel Palestine is a bit boring, if they would go into real dark arts or childhood or crazy shaman's ideas like in old testament that would be what people's expected.
But I guess you can't repeat something that was perfect again :)))
Ok, it gets better after 30 minutes or so :)
Ahh the old “steal from your old jobs” scenario we all do… gotta love it
3:26 Why the fuck am I listening to the rat king and shamen talking about palestine lmaooooo
My manhood Canada is strapped tight for this one.
I put on some extra dong wax myself
Nothing could make this a better day! Blessed be the dawgz who've prayed this into existence 🙏
What a great vibe these boys have.
I hope Theo knows how big a deal this podcast was for mssp listeners
To make Theo Von spit out from laughing at 1:09:40 must be one of the greatest honors for comedians. Blessed be the shaman 🫡
Yes 😂😂😂
I thought the same thing.
He made him squirt
I can’t stop replaying it. Send help
The Shaman isn't phased by his blessings
McCusker is a gem
McCuster*
hes like a gem encrusted hot dog
Theo, you've really fuckin come a long way from when I discovered you!!!! I get friends who aren't even into comedy recommending your pod to me!! You're a GREAT host! Love you bro!
Matt McCusker is a national treasure.
Oh wow, I did not expect this 🤣🤣🤣
THE SHAMAN!!!!!!
The 2 funniest most weirdly insightful human beings alive in the same room to vibrate near each other. If this isn't what podcasting was meant to be, idk what it is. 11/10
The bit about the gay baby coming to slurp on his nipple was hilarious
this podcast has a very healing frequency.
“The Underground Railroad was a sausage party.” 😂
Theo- “Jesus only worked 30 hours a week”
Matt- “who said that?”
Theo- “bring it up, look that up”
Dude, google Jesus' work week and overtime schedule. Guy was a slacker
couldn’t stop laughing at this 😂
Love the ep. Hate the fact that I pay for yt premium and still have to skip ads on every damn podcast.
I get the podcast is essentially free, but damn, paying 12$ a month and also having to skip like 6 minutes of ads is stupid
Oh man the two saddest days in highschool were taking my best friend for 4 years to the airport to leave and go back to South Korea and the last day of summer before going off to college, laying in bed with my girlfriend staying as long as possible one last time for a while. I showed my Korean friend the ropes from day one, helped him in class, got him into sports, and stayed at his apartment damn near all of senior year. That was tough knowing I wouldn't see him for a few years. And nothing like going separate ways from your first love, knowing the relationship might not be the same, may not last, won't see each other every single day and night anymore for a while. I remember both of those days like yesterday after watching this podcast, those days were full of emotion and tough learning experiences.
Everyone was waiting for this
The idea of theo and matt running a spirit Halloween together 😂😂😂
So hilarious
The episode I’ve been waiting for. Bless yall
Theo tried to out weird Matt and he couldn't!!! 😂😂😂❤❤
20 minutes in and I’ve burst out laughing at work a solid 7 times
It must have been the same or more for me. These two are so naturally funny
Finally! Been waiting a loooooong time for Theo and the Shaman. Blessed be the Dawgs 🙌
Just got part of my finger bitten off watching this to cheer me up 👍🏻
One of my favorite episodes ever!! So much laughter and genuine insight. 🙏🏻🔥
“Dude I remember one time, I was driving and I had been drinking, right? Because it was… I think it was daytime, or whatever.”
That’s one for the books 😂😂
I would’ve lost it if Matt showed up DRENCHED 😂😂😂
Dude my doctor says I have to be completely soaked with water at all times. Are you going to take my order or are you going to refuse me service because of my disability?
Yes, I'll have a pitcher of water please, to start.
One of them needs to do this on a pod...at least once. For the DAWGS...
With that mmgoodboy haircut drip, he IS drenched
It's not illegal
🤣🤣🤣
this is how I imagined the Burr episode would go
The underlying racism with Theo is always so funny 🥴
11:22 the very instant theo gets a good reading on the shaman's power level
