Reminder: Joe Matarese tried to pretend this never happened, then put it behind a paywall once he saw how many views it was getting on unofficial channels, then gave up and put it up on his own channel. Possibly the last time the boys were ever funny.

The way Jim reacts to having that drink passed in front of his face makes me want to impale him on the end of a hook and feed him to a catfish.

Isn’t it this show that made Anthony aggressively pursue Artie for the cohost gig?

Who knows

Made myself a coffee gonna sit down and enjoy this, never watched it in full.

0:45 seconds in I already have the chills.

Matarese is insufferable. And that band might be the only one worse than Joe cumia's

nice one bro :)

Ignore the naysayers Joe, after all someone had to steer the ship! #U.S.S.Gabagooch

wow the boys are actually funny in this, stars must have been aligned in some weird way.

It was their swan song

I'd almost forgotten that I used to enjoy these guys. Though Artie is clinging on to coherency at this point

Man, I was totally one of those guys on the sub saying “THIS should be the show! These three are hilarious together and all they need is someone/something to trash.” Life is so disappointing.

> Now it just makes me sick to hear their voices.

Suspension of disbelief

The term suspension of disbelief or willing suspension of disbelief has been defined as a willingness to suspend one's critical faculties and believe something surreal; sacrifice of realism and logic for the sake of enjoyment. The term was coined in 1817 by the poet and aesthetic philosopher Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who suggested that if a writer could infuse a "human interest and a semblance of truth" into a fantastic tale, the reader would suspend judgement concerning the implausibility of the narrative. Suspension of disbelief often applies to fictional works of the action, comedy, fantasy, and horror genres. Cognitive estrangement in fiction involves using a person's ignorance to promote suspension of disbelief.The phrase "suspension of disbelief" came to be used more loosely in the later 20th century, often used to imply that the burden was on the reader, rather than the writer, to achieve it.

Hey it’s me, Joe Matarese. I slapped some chalk paint on this Ikea dresser and I’m selling it for 2 grand, shabby chic.

Norton wasn't funny. Artie was hilarious and Ant got a couple of laughs out of me.

This was the last funny thing they produced and at the expense of Matarese
