    Michael is such a devoted family and you can feel his love for his wife and kids. And seeing Geoff who is somewhat a mentor to him be proud of him is so heartwarming. These people are so genuinely good and I’m proud to be a part of a community they built because the people who are a part of this community are just as good. I love these people and I love that I live in Austin because just walking by them randomly and saying hi. It doesn’t happen too frequently but it happens and it’s awesome.

    The first discussion question amazes me. More specifically, Michael and Geoffs answers to it. Moments like that really ground them in my mind, remind me that they're people with problems worries and lives outside of their jobs.

I'd say off topic is actually pretty chill, giving the fact that it has AH. sure, there is madness,loudness,drunkness and destruction, but not to that level, and every single episode to where "it's the essence of the podcast" this is why I agree with you, always open with AH was far better executed

    Jeremy felt so out of place. He’s trying his best to keep calm like the others.

    28:15 : 2 years ago, on a scout camp in France, my patrol leader comforted me when I found out that my Grandad passed away. It was the hardest thing to recover from and I still get effected now.

    I am so proud of these boys and how far they've come. Geoff talking about his pizza oven and Michael bringing the kids over. I love having seen them grow through the years and become such mature and spectacular adults while also being raucous and hilarious. They did such an amazing job with this and I am so amazed with all of them.

    Oh my God, but they're so adorable, though. Love how they took this seriously but still kept it Achievement Hunter. It was so natural and fitting despite it being a different style from usual. What great boys.
    Wouldn't mind this being an annual crossover event between the two.

    Honestly looking at Geoff here, it's super wonderful to see the improvement since his sobriety. He looks so clean and healthy now, watching the growth of these guys over the years is kind of amazing.
