MBMBaM 817: Shabby Dabby Doug

MBMBaM 813: Somebody Cream Me!

It turns out the McElroy family organization is the exact opposite of the Mafia in that we are known for being real goofs and also owe favors to a lot of people. But we still have lots of advice you can’t refuse about suspicious frozen desserts, responsible accent work, and baby wookies.

MBMBaM 809: Lesser Luigi Model

MBMBaM 807: Riding in Floors with Boys

It feels like we were destined to tackle the topics at hand this week. Who else would be more equipped to name the ride-on floor cleaners, reboot three different Phantom franchises, and use sports broadcasting to score some ice cream drumsticks, all while unveiling of the greatest advancement in high-tech, piss-proof cape technology.

MBMBaM 806: Ad Daddies

Our home town boys made GOOD! But don’t you worry, we won’t let the success go to our heads.

MBMBaM 805: The Most Forbidden Fritos

MBMBaM 801: Bad Idea Blanket

This isn’t a celebrity-guest centric podcast at all, but we’re thinking maybe we can lure a famous mascot on if we fill our pockets with small stinky fish. Maybe that’s too forward. How about wing sauce? No, that’s too wild. I guess we’re just going to have to do a John Cougar Mellencamp impression instead.
