The Worst Idea Of All Time

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.

Fresh off some branding talk, the boys pen a response to P. Schwartz with an exciting business opportunity. Guy takes a big swing on a joke and pays the price, Tim is ready to take it on the chin for public infrastructure, and the episode wraps with the first ever Good Times cliffhanger.

Roll them bones! Let it ride! Hit me baby one more time! This episode of Good Times is all about taking chances, as Guy “Moneybags” Montgomery returns to the scene of the crime after sweeping the table at Tim’s poker game. The Word of the Week brings out Tim’s devil-may-care attitude. Comedian and poet Tim Key offers a counterpoint, giving the boys an etiquette lesson on asking for your male friend’s phone number.

Come on down to Guy’s Memory Surplus for our September Clearance Sale! Niche details of the 2003 All Blacks lineup, premises for discontinued shows on the WB: Everything Irrelevant Must Go! As Monty explores his mind palace, Tim gets Rhys Mathewson on the blower to talk the merits of voice messages and whether or not you should squash the beef with people you may have wronged as a kid.

The Good Times are threatened as Guy poses Tim a question with no satisfactory answer before diving into a despondent edition of Word of the Week. The vibe is rescued by a phone call with Abby Howells, who joins the boys on a stroll down memory lane.

Where were you on the morning of Saturday, September 7th (Friday the 6th if you’re a Substack member)? Here to serve as your alibi, an interrogative episode of Good Times, The Hon. Guy A.H. Montgomery and Timothy A. Batt presiding. Guy has been reading a lot of detective novels and is in an interrogative mood (also caused in part by another book he’s read, Padgett Powell’s “The Interrogative Mood.”) Tim, meanwhile, is full of answers, bringing some hot, current pop culture takes on the woke mind virus and the Kendrick v Drake beef.
