Guy would like you know that the Lamont Landers Band rules.
What happens when you take a human billboard and plop him inside a Christmas movie where Santa goes to jail, a 16-year-old runs away from home and ad exec John R. Cherry III just wants to get paid? The opening is a Coke ad, the man is potentially a coke addict and all I can think about is a certain coke plot at a certain airport by a certain other Tim. This movie is warm piss. Not overly offensive but nobody’s asking for it. Enjoy our third edition of the Christmas Treehouse Festival of Shit.

Good Times: 28
36:24|The Good Times boys have been rolling the hard six. Guy has been gambling on some new material in front of the Australian masses while Tim has been conducting an unprecedented sweep in his sports-betting league (and has taking away all the wrong lessons). The continuing gamble of having someone who is tattooed on your body re-enter the public spotlight has the fellas feeling all sorts of ways.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!

27:57|Listeners are taking matters into their own hands, whether it be taking inspiration from Guy to start a hat embroidery project, embarking on a Worst Idea-style wager of endurance with their mates, or, in the case of Luigi Mangione, producing their own fan-season of Killionaire.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!

30:59|The Family faces their greatest threat yet as adrenaline junkie Tim Batt is unleashed upon the mean streets of Auckland. After passing his restricted (on the first go), Tim is raising hell across Aotearoa (between the hours of 5am and 10pm, or past 10pm with a supervisor in the passenger’s seat.) Meanwhile, the wily Guy Montgomery, the brains of the operation, furthers his sinister goals of routing the Family’s best minds in the colosseum of phone chess. Can anyone stop them? The Word of the Week might hold the answer (91 mins, PG-13.)TWIOAT: Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!

32:44|Guy has found New Eden in Adelaide, South Australia. Tim is resting, dragon-like, on his horde of downloaded media in Auckland. On both sides of the Tasman, eyes are turned towards the comeback kid, P. Schwartz, as he takes the screen for S3 of White Lotus (except for Tim, who hasn’t gotten around to it yet.) Our eternal sponsor, Random Word Generator, brings us the most kiwi edition of Word of the Week yet.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!
Good Times: 25 (w/ Michael Hing)
50:56|Settle into your own sensory deprivation tank and let this week’s episode of Good Times bounce back at you from its walls. It’s a lovely summer day and the boys have just emerged from a swim, coming to sans shirts to talk contests, claims, and cashing in on failed outsider political campaigns. Michael Hing is on the line this week with an upcoming show about dead billionaires and a bold new rebrand for adult diapers. It’s a good one.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!

31:16|There’s trouble a-brewing in the Schwarzenegger dynasty. The boys wonder this week how their tattoos will fare in the coming months, as Patty is put on the national stage. Tim is called out on his tepid support for the anti-dementia energy bar magnate, and doubles down in response, pending Patty’s appearance in the upcoming season of The White Lotus. Guy brought a donut.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!
Good Times: 24 (w/ Nish Kumar)
47:34|After a few days of playing incredibly fast and loose with his eating habits, Tim has come back to the stu to debrief with an infuriated Guy Montgomery and our Friend on the Phone, Nish Kumar. Tim has been challenging the idea that having kids makes you uncool by eating a diet that would kill a mortal man. Nish unpacks his status as a real “baby’s baby” and Guy recounts having an out-of-body experience during the tour to (literally) end all tours.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!

34:32|It’s a true family affair this week on FT, with the fellas taking questions on Did Titanic Sink, GMGMSBee and other members of the extended Worst Idea family. Somehow even more listeners are getting PhD; the same cannot be said for Guy, who has yet to be bit by the history bug that seems to eventually catch up with dads the world over. Tim, meanwhile, has undergone a different dad evolution and is ready to #unplug.Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!

49:29|During this week’s Good Times, the fellas are thinking about relationships of all kinds. What ever did happen to Bennifer? (Lofleck? Jenjamin?) How long is right to spend at the bar with your mates? The ever-honest Guy Williams stops in early to crack into the thorniest relationship question of all: what is it that makes a group of men spontaneously break out into a podcast when spending time together?Get episodes early and in video on our Substack!
