On the other side of the Vegas trip, Guy has a lot of thoughts about competitive airline queueing. During the Lost Art of the Phone Call, Melanie Bracewell stops by to recount a truly trying Uber experience, while G&T compete in vain to be as engaging over the phone as Mel’s dad plus a bottle of char.

Tim and Guy pull off one last job before leaving Las Vegas: stealing an entire podcast episode from the Bellagio Casino under the auspices of playing the pokies. The boys have capped off their pilgrimage to the birthplace of Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 with the Cirque du Soleil show “O” and Guy is not holding back. Apologies to any Quebequois circus freaks who may be listening.

If you’re reading this, it means you’re one of the five or six folks whose relentless Worst Idea relistens are keeping the show at the top of the charts. Tim and Guy tuck into some mail from fans that make me, a TWIOAT editor by trade, feel like a mere hobbyist in comparison. Guy reflects on the smudge on his memory that is the Emmanuelle season, Tim reminisces on the all-knowing presence of Patti Harrison.

They’re on a plane! They can’t complain! Tim and Guy convene over the middle seat of a plane, 35,000 feet (10,668 metric feet) above the Pacific Ocean. Pack your bags, scholars and philosophizers, Tim has figured out which percentage of people are good guys and bad guys, and presents his findings in a series of concise statistics. Guy recounts his campaign of Andy Kaufman-esque comedy sets, performed for the delight of his fellow airplane passengers. Ain’t no audience like a captive audience.

In the longest Good Times episode yet, Guy and Tim find themselves bouncing from idea to idea with wild abandon. New merch? A screenplay? A BUSINESS that rents MOVIES!? It’s too much for the boys to handle on their own, so they enlist the wonderful David O’Doherty, fresh off of a footy win, for an extended edition of Lost Art of the Phone Call. Check out David’s fantastic new show, What Did You Do Yesterday?, wherever good podcasts are sold.

Separated for the first time in a minute, the fellas are at their scrappiest. Tim crusades against voice messages. Guy questions whether his caretaking methods have turned him into some kind of soup authoritarian figure. Little Empire’s own Johanna Cosgrove brings ~un ti peu~ class to the studio, arriving to settle a score with Monty.

The Jack Kerouac and Neal Cassady of podcasting take to the conversational highway in this week’s episode of Good Times, learning a little bit about Michelle Pfeiffer and a lot about life. Guy is curious about his own lack of curiosity towards the world. Tim pitches a Worst Idea season surrounding the 1982 film Grease 2: More Grease. Appropriately, a new guest arrives to impart some homespun wisdom on the boys as they roam around looking for wisdom or enlightenment or something (we’re not actually sure, Tim could only listen to the audiobook sample)

Tim is battling his way back from yet another cold, but the good times persist. Guy gets deep with the Word of the Week. Rose Matafeo, known abroad as Mr. Entertainment, joins via telephone to talk landlines, how to open a comedy special, and the bewildering s***ing habits of friend of the show, Alice Snedden.

Bust out those briefcases and gold-toe socks, cause it’s business time. Tim is here in a suit jacket and a pink singlet, which Business Insider calls the perfect attire for closing deals. Guy brings in the big guns, phoning up Chris “Mr. Brands” Parker for advice on locking down a partnership with Mosh.
