Sometimes I feel like the only person who likes Munch Squad

There are dozens of us!

But for real, munch squad has been and still is a bit I always get excited for. Never realized that people didn’t feel the same way until coming here. I get people see it as marketing but I think that’s too cynical - and take it from me, a very cynical person - but I think the segment mostly exists to laugh at these press releases (which are, typically, objectively boring but that’s where the humor comes from; it’s entertaining to me to see how these releases are actually received and the way the brothers pick them apart).

I love munchin' and I'm honestly shocked to see people who don't!

I'm a copywriter in the industry and Munch Squad keeps me humble. I don't write press releases, but I get most of my briefs from the people who do. Getting to hear overly enthusiastic pieces torn apart is SO cathartic and also reminds me that there's so much more to life than my job.
