Episode 229: Bubby Thinks He's Sheldon

Original air date: December 11, 2024

Episode overview

Bingo discussed recent show activity, including his appearance on People Are the Enemy and preparations for the Cursemas marathon. Bingo owned up to a Name That Name outro-music mixing mistake from the prior episode (the Yu-Gi-Oh card reveal song was mixed too quiet), explained the re-export/audio-leveling mishap, and answered a chat question about the technical-difficulties bumper music (Animal Crossing’s Shampoodle theme). Bingo revisited a shelved What Were They Stinking? bit built around a deliberately unfunny sketch from the very first episode of Saturday Night Live (an Albert Brooks spinning-newspaper short), reciting it live after the original SNL clip audio kept getting copyright-flagged on YouTube. Bingo ranked Frosmoth, drew a gray pinstriped Mafia cat eating spaghetti beneath a heart-framed Luigi and an anti-McDonald’s symbol, earned 3.36 stars, briefly answered Uncle Jimmy, and then ranked Guzzlord. Bingo returned to a backlog of bumper stickers, vehicle decals, signs, and other audience-submitted grumbles. Bingo read and analyzed a classic Marvin strip whose delayed punchline was an enormous burp. The random-number generator selected ragnfredr at position 23 from 25 subscribers for a fourth win and a Giant Orc Yu-Gi-Oh card plus extras.
