      The trick is to avoid shows that don’t have a clear objective unless they are comedians who are actually funny most of the time. “Three friends just sitting around talking about life, the universe, and everything!” -like descriptions are a major red flag. Extra deductions if their logo shows a glass of whiskey or a beer.

        That was my entire idea for a podcast. Thanks for shitting on my dream. I guess I’ll never start it now.

          1. if a random comment on the internet is enough to destroy

          your dream

          then it was a weak and shitty dream. Get a new one.

          1. do it anyway. Who cares. You know what’s the worst that could happen? You try, and it doesn’t work out and then you can look back at it and consider it “gave it a good shot, didn’t work out”. And then you can point to all the people who still sit on their couch and didn’t even try.

          2. do it.

            Funny you should say that. I’m already a terrible musician. I’ve got a solo gig and a band gig this weekend. I just wanted the podcast to complete my middle aged white dude punch card because my cargo shorts just got here the other day.

      I listen to My Brother, My Brother and Me because I like to listen to the three brothers be funny at each other.

      Some people don’t need or want intellectually challenging media all the dang time.
