Griffin and Rachel are joined by Dave Shumka, host of Stop Podcasting Yourself and a real-life human who has actually played hockey. Dave answers all the burning questions about what it's like playing in an adult hockey league and how hockey even really works.

We've never been invited to be on the hit show Hot Ones, but that doesn't mean we can't ask each other questions while eating increasingly spicy chicken wings to try to get on the show. Or in some cases, eating increasingly spicy drumsticks. And fries, which are absolutely forbidden and which we had to slap from Travis's sauce-slathered hand.

Rachel and Griffin finish out their discussion of the 2024 season of The Bachelor. Will Joey find true love? Or at least someone to enjoy poutine with?

Strap in and get ready to hang out with the cool blue guys and their dragon buds for nearly three hours, folks. Thanks to your support in getting us over 15,000 new and upgrading members, Travis and Griffin have been forced to watch Avatar with Justin and experience the magic of Pandora for themselves, and not just via the Disney ride.

After several years, Rachel and Griffin are finally ready to take on the first five episodes of the 2024 season of The Bachelor. The drama! The dates! The roses! The gamification! The still-problematic and rough-to-watch segments!

Clint apparently doesn't listen to MBMBaM regularly, and as punishment we are working together to create the world's first 3 GM, 1 player RPG: Plato's Rave. In this bonus episode we go floor by floor of Plato's Rave to develop the barometric, bathroom, and buffalo sauce-based puzzles our dad will face as he navigates the rave in the hopes of meeting the Candy King. It uh.... it gets pretty weird, you guys.Listen to the TAZ boco to hear Clint take on this adventure. Special thanks to Danielle Mijo-Burch for her copious notes on Plato's Rave.

And they said it would never happen again, your favorite former professional cheesemongers are back! This time around Jordan Morris and John Hodgman do a DIY cheese tasting. Plus, they settle your cheese disputes. What is the definition of nachos? How are you supposed to eat string cheese? Would you rather eat blue cheese ice cream or hot dog flavored ice cream? And so much more, including a cameo from Carrie Poppy who recommends the best vegan cheeses. Very special thanks to Robyn Hitchcock for re-recording his song “The Cheese Alarm” so that we could use it on this podcast.
