1:00:20 NICE! Got a shout out! Love these guys! DIE = Best podcast channel ever!
loved hearing Ben, have him back!
RE: 46:50, Bam did have a show where they did pranks to each other for free - skate videos called CKY (Camp Kill Yourself, Bam's brother Jesse's band). There were 4 vids - CKY2K (the 2nd one) was the best.
Hilarious postcast! They give a SofaKings vibe, but with a hyperfocus on film, television and Hollywood-adjacent deaths. A bit of true crime is often thrown in for good measure. Definitely subscribe to these guys.
