What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
The McElroy brothers are not experts, and their advice should never be followed. Travis insists he's a sexpert, but if there's a degree on his wall, I haven't seen it. Also, this show isn't for kids, which I mention only so the babies out there will know how cool they are for listening. What's up, you cool baby? One, two, three, four! A small acquaintance has blossomed, it's ripened into a precious friendship. I could have never seen what was coming for me. Hangs at the skate park, hangs by the beach.
My life, it feels like life. It's better, it's better with you.
This is true.
Hello, everybody. Welcome to My Brother, My Brother, and Me, an advice show for the modern era. I'm your oldest brother, Justin McElroy. What up, Trav Nation? It's me, your middle-aged brother, Travis Big Dog. Vroom, vroom, the heater. Award winning. Award having. Received it in the mail. Update. Only, like, six months later. Got it. McElroy. That is a beautiful trophy. Can you beauty blog that shit? Yeah, it's beautiful. It really shows fingerprints. We got that. We got that iHeartRadio podcast award.
Really shows fingerprints.
That's why Travis can't touch it to send it to us because the fingerprinting would be too much of an issue in shipping. You can't have that in your background looking like a grubby kid. I think it might be scuffed. No, that's a permanent scuff right there across the middle. That's how you know it's special. I just want to say, to me... I wish we could win more awards because the idea of Travis's shot getting more and more filled with awards as ours remains exactly static, I think is so appealing to me. We should start sending Travis every award we get, whether it's related to the podcast or not. My number one dad ribbon that my son made me. What was the last award you got? What was the last actual award you got?
I feel like I just got them all the time when I was a kid. I didn't appreciate it. Plaques meant nothing to me as a child. I got plaques monthly as a kid, right? I have a stack of plaques, boxes of plaques. If I got a plaque now as an adult, I would flip.
Don't even start on trophies.
A trophy? That's all you would hear about for the next two and a half years. Amanda sent us a medal once after a particularly rough episode of McElroy Family Clubhouse. And I was so excited.
A medal? Yeah.
For me? Sarah and Amanda sent me a, I got a hot dog statue one time when I beat a trial by Fieri. I've got, but then, but yeah, I guess you're right, Justin. To come back to the point you're making, we're not very competitively successful. And I don't get a lot of prizes. I display the rap gif from the movie I was cut from. Yeah. That's where I'm at on the Hollyweird spectrum. Yeah. But this is my brother, my brother and me, Trav. I wanted to say happy birthday, America, and the gift that we all got that, like... Shrek didn't have time to prepare much, but for America's birthday, for the 250th, he did have one gift. And it is a new trailer that Griffin, I'm hearing you have not. I've not watched, yeah. I've been saving it sort of like the guy in Lost.
What award and trophy banter opens the episode about McElroy family pride?
It's like the last thing I wanna, if like the meteor's coming, it's like now I can watch the Shrek 5 trailer in my last moments with my family. So here's what I would like to try, because I've never, I think this would be fun. You know how like there are audio description tracks available for like viewers that might need that assistance. Or like if you're touring a museum describing a great work of art, right?
Exactly.
Griff, I was wondering, could you watch the trailer and then just like, as you're watching, just describe the whole thing as you're watching it. Just like stream of, stream of, like just not even stream of conscious because you're watching a trailer. So just like not thinking about it, just like saying what you're seeing, you're you are the audio description because like this is an audio medium and i can't think of how else to translate the trailer into this podcast and i feel like well i mean you could screen share it we have the technology to screen i don't want to watch it with you i just want to listen to you watch it okay well you know what i mean like i guess we could watch it at the same time as you do but i'd much rather hear your sort of twist and i just kind of freestyle jazz it
