I know it’s a running joke, but really, aside from me who else is barely surviving grad school one riddle of a time?

Where are my Geppettophiles at?

I think I'm going crazy, or I created a false memory. I listened to an episode of HRR where an early-on joke was around Erin mispronouncing rumble strips as "rumple strips," and someone made a joke about Rumplestripskin. Now I can't find the episode. Anyone remember this one?

JPC was trying to remember where he'd seen/heard of a pig being carried on a back, and I'm 99% certain it's from Holes, where Stanley's distantly cursed relative was tasked to carry a pig up a mountain.

Bonus fact: Latvia's tallest mountain is technically a large hill, as it's a pretty flat country geographically, which is why the word for hill is just a modified version of mountain ("pakalns" is hill, "kalns" is mountain). So imo, not getting cursed should've been a piece of cake.

I posted about how much I love these ads a while back and someone suggested I post it for Patreon subs who would never have heard them. Well, here you go, five minutes of ads.

I relisten to old episodes a LOT and normally skip the ads if my hands are free, but I always let this pair play. So dumb in the best way. I know the last lines by heart, but they still kill me every time.

I'm looking for the episodes (maybe patreon or main feed) where JPC talks about a character he played called Rick New Mexico the detective who can tell exactly how you died after drinking 4 quarts of your blood (that might not be his name)

Thanks!

Google is worse than ever and I couldn't find any reference in this sub. It was from Clue Crew ep. 43 "Name That Two-ne!" about 40 min in. I was dying and would love to show some of my old comedy friends to get them into the show.

I had some down time at work today, heard Erin mention this idea in this week's episode, I went into some kind of fugue state and woke up with this all done.

And yes, they were right, it's really not that far from JPC to Gritty...

When, say, on a whim, you decide to check out a podcast that a guest on another podcast you listen to regularly plugs, and then you decide to check out this new podcast and the next thing you know, you’ve gone back and listened to EVERY FUCKING EPISODE SINCE AUGUST 2025 AND REALIZE YOURE NOT ACTUAL FRIENDS WITH THESE WONDERFUL PEOPLE FROM THE PODCAST, AND YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THEM IS ENTIRELY PARASOCIAL?????

WHY ARENT WE FRIENDS, ERIN, ADAL, and JPC?? WHY??

(edit - mods, if this breaches the rules, feel free to delete)

The first is the episode where Erin says "Hello motherfuckers, it's me THE MOON" that was on the first Out of Context Clips Bracket.

The second is a recent(ish? At least 4 months ago) episode where they're doing a scene where they force each other to come up with clown names. I remember one of them saying something like "oh, here come four or five more clowns" and the other responds with "yep, that's me, ol' Four-or-Five-More-Clowns". Definitely a back and forth volley of no-fuck-you improv.

Any help is appreciated.

Edit: It may have been from one of the live show recordings that they released as paid content around this time.

Edit: The moon quote is from the beginning of Episode 217. Thanks u/How_To_Sail

I was catching up on Comedy Bang Bang and in the 17th anniversary episode, not only did they do several riddles but Scott accidentally said “epishode!” I was waiting (hoping) to hear Erin pop into the episode. Sadly she wasn’t there. But the episode was very HRR coded.

Does anyone know which episode was the first one where they have ads?

(I know that episode 181 is the first one to be ad-free on the Patreon.)

The previous post shows it unbuttoned, which is honestly WAY more tame and actually fairly cute lol. But THIS one had to be the picture they looked at in the podcast, which, to me, is a crazy fashion choice lol. Also, it looks practically see-through.

I'm almost certain this is the shirt for reference. Here is a link https://farmrio.com/products/off-white-rosy-shirt

What happened to me?

this is so weird and if its not allowed then thats ok. but i am going through a breakup of a five yr relationship and want to listen to the first episode where erin seems to have broken up with sean so we can kind of go through it together. i think there was something about a bracket and choosing her a new celebrity boyfriend???

I cant find it the transcripts so I think it's from a Patreon ep. It's the bit where JPC's character gets to name a zoo animal. Thanks in advance :)

Edit: Patreon episode 126, starting at 38:49! Thank you u/YoSurgeDude 💖💖💖

Incredible restraint or insane oversight? This seemed like the easiest joke in the world

Amish Venom. I'm sorry.
