    It wasn’t “median” it was all NBA. So the top 5 percent.

    I’m sure 90 percent of the board are built like these dudes. I can’t believe I’m having a serious conversation with someone that thinks 90 percent of an internet message board could be all NBA in the 60s because our weight rooms are better.

    I honestly cannot believe that you didn’t understand that his “I’ve never been more serious” was obvious sarcasm

    Got bored on a long flight and listened to the PMT life advice episode with Russillo and Titus. I stopped listening to PMT years ago, but figured it would be a good listen.

    not surprising:

    (1) Russillo is friends with Q anon Spencer Hawes
    (2) Russillo thinks landlords get treated unfairly because more ppl are renters.

    Ruiz putting Calvin Ridley as his # 10 WR made me immediately turn off the pod. They should try hiring normal and intelligent people.

    Tried to give project X a listen, but had to bail. Too painful listening to 2 old guys and a producer talk about a high school party movie from 10 years ago like it was SO BADASS. Love jacoby thing

    I enjoyed the Project X pod and I usually don't like Jacoby. Craig is 2-for-2 on his Rewatchables appearances. I guess Bill is willing to make it open mic night for certain (white male) underlings.

    Anyway, Jacoby missed a chance to make the obvious joke: "At which of your seven houses are you going to allow Ben to throw a Project X party, Bill?"

    Project X pod was worth listening to for Bill calling a flamethrower a “fire shooter” and thankfully there was a guest who doesn’t depend on Bill for a paycheck so he was roasted accordingly

    Jacoby doing the Shea Serrano “I’m gonna pretend this awful movie is actually awesome” bit does get old by the end. Especially for a guy who’s never seen Superbad

    Craig has been awesome on his two rewatcheables appearances. I never even saw Project X and chuckled a few times.

    Not The Ringer but Isaac Lee, former Ringer employee (I know he produced Binge Mode) started a podcast that’s basically Binge Mode Ted Lasso. 3 episodes out, I’ve listened to the first 2 and was entertained. Both his first 2 guests are also former Ringer employees.

    Called The Icebox
