    • One thing I neglected to do last time was to give a shout out on behalf of PiGuy for the Patreon/community/podcast network of “Gamefully Unemployed”. I did go in after the episode was already released and put in a pre-roll ad for them, but, of course, I fucked it up slightly and misread one of the host’s names as “Tim” instead of “Tom”.  Tom and Dave started Gamefully Unemployed after they lost their jobs at Cracked.com.  They’re on Twitch so they do games, watch movies, and other cool stuff.
      You can find them on Twitter at @GamefullyUn or on Patreon at GamefullyUnemployed (all one word).
      Their exclusive podcasts are:

       

      • Tom and Jeff Watch Batman (a deep dive into all things Batman in video form)
      • Fox Mulder is a Maniac (an analysis of the X-Files with the premise that Fox Mulder is actually, clinically insane.
      • They also have a complimentary network called “Story Mode” where they talk pop culture, review movies, play D&D, and lots more.
  • A New Cast Interview!!!
    • We’ve got approval to have an interview with Patrick McNeil (Connor the vaping skid) in relatively short order. We’ll keep you updated on that.
  • Don’t forget, we’ve got MERCH!howareyanowpod.com/merch
  • Thanks for our guest host and musical guest from last week:
    • Aaron Farris – Had a great time chatting about an episode that is NOT super popular with a lot of folks, but hearing back that our take on the episode made it better. Thank you Aaaron!
    • The Highway Thieves – Great tunes for the episode! You can find them on thehighwaythieves.bandcamp.com

Episode dive (10:40- 0:30:35):

  • Brief recap of: Great Day for Thunder Bay
  • Deep dive into: Super Hard Easter

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Questions (0:30:35 – 0:46:18):

From our Degens:

Ryan Devlin (via hosts@howareyanowpod.com)

Have you ever seen Dary more excited about anything?  He is outright giddy about his turn this year.

In the scene at the end with McMurray and Wayne…What do you think Wayne was trying to tell McMurray?  I feel like it may have been something to the effect of them being good buddies if it wasn’t so goddamn hard to communicate.

The Booty Warrior (via Twitter @xbuckshotlovex) I wonder what special or holiday they may this upcoming year… hmm
Trevor (via Twitter @cTrain014) Squirrelly Dan recounting the very first Easter is one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard. K Trevor Wilson nails that delivery so hard.
Regan (via Discord) Theory:
The way Dary paints his Easter eggs is the same way that his mom painted Easter eggs.
Awesome (via Discord) Me:
Is that a trivia orrrr????

 

just a random headcanon/theory
here’s an observation: Wayne (and by extension, Katy) knows enough about Irish folklore to correct Darry on what the Wild Hunt is.
(lending further credence to my theory that at least one of their parents was Irish Irish)
I thought the Wild Hunt was more mainland Europe?
it’s one of those pan-celtic myths. mostly seen in pre-christian gaelic areas
it was Heavily Romanticised by a lot of Victorian writers during the Celtic Revival period

From us:

  • Even the Skids “don’t fuck with tradition”.
  • Wayne only sticks with tradition when it suits him.
  • Katy always having to remind Wayne that he’s the one that’s always saying “You don’t fuck with tradition!” when he’s the one trying to buck tradition.
  • Theory:  McMurray is doing his talking-over Wayne on purpose.
  • Alternate theory:  McMurray just REALLY wants to be Wayne’s friend
  • Trivia:
    • First open without Wayne
    • There’s a painting of Roald behind Roald
    • The initiating of “What could be so urgent?”

Fuck – Fight – FERDA!!!  (0:46:18 – 0:56:39)

  • Fuck:  Glen and Roald can GET IT!!!
  • Fight:  Wayne and Stewart are due a scrap!
  • FERDA:   Everyone else.

Farewells and Outro:  (0:56:39 – 1:03:46)

Dean keeps hearing that Tyler Johnston looks like Tom Cruise but thinks he actually looks more like a young Michael Biehn.

Cosplay Reminder – 12 days

In 12 days (October 6th) we record our final episode for season 4 (the recap episode).

If you were hoping to join in on the cosplay contest, you’d better get busy, because that’s the episode in which we’re announcing the winner!

The winner will get to choose a tank-top or t-shirt from our merch!

YOU DID IT!

I just wanted to make the following announcement…
WE MADE OUR GOAL!

Thanks to our wonderful co-admin and beautiful friend, Victoria, we are now at our $2000 goal!

I don’t know if that means we aren’t allowed any more contributions or if it just stays open until the 30 days are up. In any case I don’t think we get funded until at least 2 weeks after the campaign is officially over. So, stay tuned!
Again, thanks to everyone who has contributed!
Victoria
Woody
Heather
Elizabeth
Valerie
Eric
Heidi

You all make us so happy and proud to do this!

Pre-show stuff (00:00 – 06:50):

  • A PSA:

Letterkenny and, consequently, this show are shows that support inclusivity.  If you find yourself offended by:

  • LGBTQ+ positivity
  • Feminism
  • Race equality
  • Sex positivity

Then you should look elsewhere for your entertainment.

Thoughts/Theories/Trivia/Questions (0:33:30 – 0:49:39):

From our Degens:

ilike3point14 on September 10, 2019 at 6:12 pm – howareyanow.com

Are The Bays really that great if they left their family and a couple of dense hockey players to hay for an all day fuck-a-thon?

Valerie Lopez – Facebook

This is a rare one for me in that I don’t love this episode as a whole. I do absolutely love the ridiculous names that some of the Rez guys have when talking to Katy Kat. But I bristled on seeing the end scene with Wayne and Tanis. NO SPOILERS!! But this episode made me so mad at Wayne who up til now had been a stand-up gentleman, a good guy, real good guy. So poll for our beloved hosts & audience: When Wayne went to the barn, did you think he was up to no good or just going to chat with his “friend” Tanis?

  • Lots of “BTE” (Big Tanis Energy) in this episode.
  • Wayne saying “fucking embarrassing”.
  • Was Wayne on the verge of crying when telling his Uncle Eddie/Aunt Marian story?
  • Was the rhyming based on Dr. Seuss?
  • Angie back in a season finale, as is Tanis.
  • Katy almost tells Zack and Ty her last name.
  • Tanis changed clothes before coming to confront Wayne.
  • Chugs beer after confrontation with Tanis.
  • Does Wayne realize he’s flirting with Tanis?
  • Roald as Stewart’s boot-black.
  • Trivia:
    • Sweater numbers for the Bay bros – 91 & 93
    • Lead the Letterkenny Jr team in Points, PIMS, and Plus-Minus.
    • Bonnie and Gail are there at the party bartending but don’t have lines in the episode.
    • Bertuzzi – Todd Bertuzzi
    • Omoplata – Jiu Jitsu shoulder lock move.
    • Gino Reda

Fuck – Fight – FERDA! (0:49:39 – 1:03:00)

        • Fuck:  Tanis is the only one getting 100% of some sexy times.
        • Fight:  Another episode with no fights!
        • FERDA:   Everyone else.
