Creeps, would you hire Hugh Honey and Vic Vinegar to sell your house? 🏠

the lawyer IMMEDIATELY accepting charlie’s duel & telling him he will pencil him in for high noon is so just so fucking good.

"Taylor swift desperately wants to talk to me" is the most Dennis thing I've ever heard on this podcast ,🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I feel like I just watched 50 episodes of Glenn falling back in love with Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Charlie's "let's go toe to toe in bird law and see who comes out victor" was my senior quote

It looks like Charlie accidentally wandered into the casting couch room

You guys are DEAD WRONG about the ending..... This is one of the quintessential endings of any Sunny episode!!! This entire episode is solid gold

So appreciate that they make time for this podcast while in the thick of production

“but little did i know, she desperately wanted to talk to me” such dennis vibes omg 😭

min 37:33 when they talk about the fly, you can see they digitally added a fake fly near Rob. I love this podcast! Thank you all!

"I'm a person of value" that's insane 🤣🤣🤣

This episode literally inspired my cousin to be a bird lawyer, he went to college to study ornithology and law after seeing this episode. Perfect television

Frank berating the kids and threatening to throw their toys in the trash was the best part

Hope you guys bring Brian Unger (the Lawyer) as a guest!

"just so you know, I'm a person of value." - quote of the year already!

I love that Meg and the lads mention the online worries over the 'argument' during the live Christmas episode. So foolish that they had to, but good on them; Glenn's first comments about it were 100% spot on. Glad we get to see behind the creative curtain, warts and all, because conflict (& conflict resolution) are a big part of any creative process!

I really appreciate Megan valuing the old episodes to keep the same humor in the new episodes. Respect

This podcast drought had me feeling like the gang when they had alcohol withdrawals glad they're back

When they referenced "TWO WARS" when Charlie brought up going to two events I almost spit out my water.

One of my favorite parts of this episode is actually a really silly, almost throwaway thing but it's delivered so perfect. The kid goes "dude. eat my booggers" and Rob coming back immediately with "you eat MY boogers"

May we pls take a moment to address how much Meg genuinely loves the show. I must truly be a creep bc seeing her light up gives me the warm & fuzzy. Long live the egg 🥚

I've been missing this podcast more than I thought I would.

*TIMESTAMPS* 0:00 Happy new year and parking! 2:34 Cold open structure / 2008 mortage crisis / writing deadlines 9:50 Bird law 11:30 Randall Einhorn / Charlie at Hollywood parties: Scott Marder, Taylor Swift and Matthew Broderick 17:17 - 18:39 ADVERTISEMENT #1 (Athletic Greens) 18:41 - 19:55 ADVERTISEMENT #2 (Better Help) 19:57 Rob and Charlie's "confrontation" in the livestream 25:30 20 years working together! 26:14 Actors in this episode 28:14 Glenn recommends a show and Rob gets made about MQ and Wrexham / 58 in the office 31:05 Brian Unger (The Lawyer) 32:30 Honey and Vinegar / "you're dead wrong" / Merging the ideas 34:50 Dee's belly flop / Kicking in the door 36:40 Flies on set / Sound effects / The Fly (1986) 40:14 Charlie driving in the rain 42:14 - 43:22 ADVERTISEMENT #3 (Huel) 43:24 - 44:30 ADVERTISEMENT #4 (Turbo Tax) 44:34 New year's resolutions and exercise goals I loved hearing them discuss the writing process and address the liveshows "confrontation" for all the idiots who have never had a serious discussion with a close friend, but I can't lie, I was a little disappointed that there was so little discussion about the episode this time :( Season 5 is one of the best of the whole series, if not the best, and the Mortgage Crisis episode is so funny that I'd been looking forward to this episode for over the past 4 weeks. Then Rob kept steering the conversation away just because he doesn't like it. He's dead wrong and I think it hurt the podcast today.

The scene where Dennis lays out all the sordid things they could do only to end with "Let's just get the deed" was amazing. And Mac and Frank antagonizing the kids was great too "let's throw all your toys in the trash!"

I didn’t see the “argument” until they started talking about it and I looked it up and WOW. That was the most normal and modest disagreement I’ve ever seen and I can’t believe people were like offended or whatever. That was a very healthy disagreement.

this looks like the interrogation room Dennis was left in when he stared at the camera for over 30 minutes Edit: Hey look Mom I'm popular

That guy totally besmirched me today and I demand satisfaction is one of my all time favorite quotes.

Glenn is so right about "I Don't Feel at Home in this World Anymore" such a fantastic film

Charlie and lord Howerton still know what makes the show work. We don’t want everything to be pristine. Keep a fly in the shot, revel in the chaos.

Bird law is a huge part of always sunny

Dennis: So... you've been eating dog food during the day, and cat food at night? Frank: I guess so Charlie: Just so you know, I'm a person of value in this conversation as well

Rob seems very stressed, totally understandable though but glad you guys took the time to do the podcast anyway.

This episode was great. My students were intimidated to try to answer a question so I told them with encouragement and a smile to "hurry up and get it wrong" so we can come to the right answer together. They laughed (I gave Rob the credit) and they felt more comfortable with shouting out a wrong answer, which they absolutely did. I will definitely be using that phrase from now on. Thanks Rob!

Charlie challenging the lawyer to a duel is one of my favorite scenes of the entire series.

Rob’s arms immediately 50% bigger as he preps for s16 lol

I’m so stoked you guys are on season five - every episode is a banger. It’s like when an artist releases an album and every track gets radio play.

YES. So many people on the internet seem to have no understanding of how healthy human beings communicate.

Taylor swift being a fan of its always sunny is somehow so funny, weird, and cool all at the same time. Like I genuinely assumed Taylor knew Mary Elizabeth from another project 😂 never imagined it’d be sunny

this is one of my favorite podcasts cuz it seems like theyre not trying to funny, theyre just exhausted and talking about whats on their mind

45:48 Rob complains how hard it is to keep his resolution to stop complaining 😂

The fact that there’s a fly in the shot right when they’re talking about taking out a fly 🤌🤌

I love how they added a fly when Rob talks about how easy it is to take one out.

Listening to Charlie talk about bird law on the podcast was on my bucket list. Check.

i love these old men but i am so disappointed they didn't talk about the choice of hugh very gently cupping vic's face and calling him "baby boy", i thought at least megan would bring it up. was it improvised or was it on the script? and why didn't they share the bloopers of that scene? in the transition screen we see rob and glenn laughing as they are doing that scene but the bloopers don't have those. i know i sound mentally ill but can we see the bloopers can we please see the bloopers

Cosigning Glenn on I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore, it's a great movie

Charlie trying to describe these events with famous people are so funny 😂

“My pole work will be a little more professional now that I know it will please someone” - Charlie Day 😂

The fact that they added the fly above Rob while he's telling everyone how cheap it is to remove them is amazing

interesting that Meg mentions the waterpark was an extra episode that got pushed to the next season, I think that's one of the best episodes they've ever done!

Mythic Quest needs a “the fly” episode like Breaking B-B-B-B-Bad

Frank busting through the gate at the end of the episode like he’s the Kook-Aid man kills me everytime 😂😂😂

the parking column was such an epic throwback

holy shit they saw my video!!! i’m the one who edited the video of them fighting. so sorry if that stirred anything up it was just supposed to be a joke!! still honored though wow.

The scene where yall ask Dee if her plans involves you in any way or is she just kinda at ya. Man that shit is so funny the way Glen delivers that line is so awesome.

Love seeing them do the "TWO functions??" Thing as soon as someone says two as though it's just as much of an inside joke for them as it is for me and my friends even though they wrote the joke.

Is it me, or has Rob been a little spicy lately? I can smell some of that vinegar boiling up inside you Rob, but I’m gonna need you to save some of that for the customers, ok baby boy?

Just giving another shout out to "I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore". Such an unknown but underrated film. So, so good!

off topic, but charlie’s green hat and the way his hair is slightly curling in that back makes him kinda look like luigi, which for me sells the fact that he’s gonna be perfect for the role.

Adding the fly into the shot between Rob and Charlie @ 37:34 was 👌

Man these podcasts are such needed comfort in a crazy world. The gang already felt like distant family after watching Sunny so many times and these episodes are just so cozy. Always a guaranteed uptick in my mood after watching. Appreciate you guys for sticking with it (and Meg for setting it up and keeping them in line)!

This is one of my favourite episodes ever. I remember getting into this show with dvds just after season 4 and this was the first season premiere I watched as it was broadcast. The cold open is absolutely perfect.

This podcast is like it's own show on its own it's great man

Nice work Meg, and Meg's trainer. "Great Job, You Failed!" might be the best metaphor for the entire arc of IASIP that I've heard yet. It needs to be on a t-shirt or coffee mug.

Wow, I'd no idea that was Melanie Lynskey in this episode. Glenn is correct re: I don't feel at home. Great film. She was also in Peter Jackson's breakthrough film, Heavenly Creatures, which is also brilliant.

Charlie and his birdlaw man. I love it. His serious dedication, and how he chooses a light mustard short-sleeved shirt and tie to look reputable. Those scenes make me so happy

The book Charlie pulls out about the lawyers dueling. That cracks me up.

I love that they digitally included a fly to the podcast

need an episode with the lawyer!! hes an iconic character!!!

best opening the show has. Frank saying "flush flush flush" while Dennis is going "face face face" is just amazing

This new set has a real back room casting couch vibe to it. I keep expecting a naked guy to walk into frame.

I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore is GREAT!

This is the main episode I show people when I’m trying to get them into Sunny. Just plays so well to demonstrate what this show is

Would love an episode with Meg as a "guest" and hear her story how she got involved with the show and so on!

I hope the line, "Does my pole work please you?" finds it's way into a script

One of my favorite quotes from Flea that I’ll have to paraphrase because I can’t remember verbatim was “it’s our job to take our inspiration and do the footwork of making it into a song.” I really enjoy hearing about the writing process from different creative avenues because of how they have to task and organize themselves. The show is about narcissists doing silly things, the work towards that end product is such an amazing process to me.

The exaustion and vulnerablity in this episode it what makes it special. Be grateful we've had so many seasons of this gem because these guys hang dong.

I never noticed a fly in that scene. I always notice how they had to keep moving away from Rob cuz he's clearly breaking character as it goes on lol

One of my favorite episodes. Classic IASIP formula. Charlie and the lawyer’s interaction was perfect.

I hear you Rob, trying to be more grateful and appreciative of things I have in life. Trying to stop other peoples idiocy from effecting my mood or make my blood pressure go up. It’s hard indeed man. Love you guys

"But little do I know,she desperately wants to talk to me,apparently. According to that story,I'm gonna assume the next time I see her that she wants to talk to me. " Lol that deserved laughs. Glenn really leaning in to his Dennis there,really felt like the "psychotically vain" bit.

love the fly being in the shot while they're talking about how inexpensive taking flies out

Love the Joseph Campbell name drop by Glenn. Campbell is a freaking beast.

I seriously appreciate how much this podcast talks about writing. It's inspiring me to write more, so thank you!

ending up in the pool is so great! It becomes like a summer event episode! this is an all time episode, one I come back to time and again

Man, I was really missing the podcasts. Glad you guys found some time!

Mac you are dead wrong about this episode. This episode and gang hits the road are by far my favourite episodes and therefore are objectively the best.

I think Rob's work during season 3 of Mythic Quest was incredible and wonderful to watch

As a aspiring creative who is about to graduate I utterly Appreciate this podcast! Always can take away something from these! Always sunny is amazing, mythic quest is amazing, and I really did enjoy Ap bio a lot! Keep it up

S5Ep1 is arguably the greatest cold open of the entire series. I watch it about once a month and still die laughing

Charlie to Matthew Broderick: don’t big league me dude. I’m trying to have a conversation with the man behind the mask.

Really enjoying you guys talking about the work behind the scenes in this episode. Always fun to see your work process!

I think Glenn's not happy he didn't get a couch spot

Love to hear the writing process - its one of those things you know is happening on the back end and is not easy.

Thanks you guys for all doing so much work to keep us entertained. As fans, we have the BEST cast and crew to love. Keep being awesome. Megan, you are the rock.

Hearing actors I respect talking about one of my favorite actresses is the validation that I didn't know I needed. Melanie Lynskey is so amazing.

Love how deep you go into the writing process on this one. Obviously top of mind since you are writing, but super fun. Would love to see a breakdown of the writing process for one of the episodes after the next season ends.

Congratulations on 20 years guys, your friendship has created many friendships of mine xoxox

37:27 I love that they digitally added a fly next to Rob here 😂

I love hearing them talk about writing! I’m taking mental notes. So cool to hear why they make the decisions they do and get a peek into the process

Great to have the gang back on a Monday. Happy new year creeps and creepettes! 👽
