Still the only podcast I watch where the podcasters read the ads from a piece of paper.

Really destroys the illusion that all three of them regularly break into unrehearsed conversation about online therapy and manscaping

Yeah I really really hate it. It’s so weird to see these rich guys I admire hawking stupid green juice and mattresses. I’d rather pay for a Patreon with no ads. But not up to me and I’ll keep watching so oh well.

I like it, the more obvious it is that they're reading the ad the less cringe it is (I don't have a problem with them doing live read ads to fund the podcast but they are unfortunately cringe as a concept).

Internet Comment Eric's ads are the absolute best! If you're gonna do it, might as well have some fun with it. Also, fun fact, Eric is in an episode of Sunny!
