      Russillo is so on fire on this pod but CR and Simmons knowing when to get out of the way and let him go ISO really helped. Also underrated was Simmons cracking CR up with The Shines stepdad bit, and Simmons and CR cracking up when RR has Cris dating Steve Levy.

    Russillo had one of my favorite lines from anything I've ever heard on an episode of SVP. When Cabrera was about to get the triple crown and there was a debate about whether he should sit the last game to protect his being average, Russillo delivered this line about Ted Williams and how his dad told him about why he played that last game - Russilo said, "When I was a kid, my dad told me three things. Always stand up for yourself, be nice to your sister... and when Ted Williams had a being average of .39955, and they told him if he sat the last game, it would round up to .400 in the record books. Ted told them, 'Screw that, If i can't hit .400 straight up, i don't deserve it.' He went 6 for 8 in that lay game and ended with a .406, because THAT'S WHAT MEN DO." - that whole thing fucking floored me.
