Cold Open

Are vasectomies considered "life threatening procedures"?

Interviews Are Banned

Before the show started, Brian and Justin decided that they are no longer going to interview guests. They'll have guests on, but they won't ask them interview type questions unless there is some extraordinary circumstances, like if the guest had sex with Tron.

Strange News

Brian and Justin check out some weird news stories curated by the Chatrealm. See all of the submitted stories here.

If you aren't a live viewer, you may be unaware that free livestreaming services have gone to shit as of late. Once upon a time, there was just a few seconds lag between the stream and the chatroom. Now, there is 15-25 seconds of lag across the board for all streaming services. Using their new Patreon money, Brian and Justin have consulted with Colleen to create their own streaming service. Thanks to Patreon, a new, low-latency stream will hopefully be just around the corner.

Apologizes For...

Earlier in the show, Brian was Googling a story but stopped at "apologises for". He realized that this would be an awesome Google News feed if you just set up a filter for "apologises for". During the show, Chatrealm put together a list of stories with "apologizes for" in the headline and the guys went through them New Champion Woo, Same Champion Boo style.
