Defintely, what's even more admirable is that you never see em on mainstream or popular sources/podcasts, they must like to help out the up n comers if I'm not mistaken.
This is so beautiful. Two small town guys believing in themselves, despite so much doubt and nay-sayers, making it, and paving a completely new road for all to follow.
I have fond childhood memories of Southpark and Casa Bonita. I’m so thrilled that people of this caliber and means took that restaurant over. I hope these guys live long and prosper.
Two brilliant minds who can speak on world/political views through vulgarity and toilet humor yet send well thought out messages that speak well on common issues/debates of society/government ideologies. Matt and Trey are two of the most well grounded intelligent comedians to exist next to Carlin
Not trying to be bias by starstruck views of them they just honestly understand the world more than most would dream of they are blessed minds for sure.
I remember watching Team America for the first time, and I just assumed that they'd somehow CGI'd it all with fake strings etc, and the big joke was that it like it had been made with real puppets/sets, but it was on such a grand scale with such elaborate set pieces, that no way in hell could it ever get made that way ... ... ... and then someone told me, and my jaw went through the friggin floor... "Stop trying to hit me and hit me!".
Team America worked as satire because it accurately reflected the blind patriotism and machismo of the action movies of its time. I don't think a sequel would work today because Hollywood don't make films anymore that have even the slightest hint of national pride.
I wish they'd go on a show like JRE. These podcasts they choose to do literally have them just talking about the same shit they've been talking about since the 2000s. Do an AMA or a different podcast and get new questions pls guys
National treasures. It's going to be a sad day when they end the show. The way they blen current culture, trends, news and how ridiculous this American freak show really can be. You can almost pick a few random episodes and guess when it was made just by the shots they take about what was relevant in the culture at the time. Lastly. They are rich AF. They don't need to do the show. They do it because they are messengers. I would say as crazy as it sounds but south park is the most culturally relevant show on TV.
one night at 3am my friends and i in 99 or 2000 ended up at gold base on shrooms but we didnt know we were at gold base....and we saw were they dumped all the battle field earth sets stuff behind the golf course parking lot
Exactly. All their interviews are the exact same. I so badly wish some South Park fan youtuber would get to interview them like Johnny2Cellos or something
That’s true, but if you haven’t listened to the rest I would encourage you to. Doug was a major executive at Comedy Central for the first few years South Park was on, and they get into some “inside baseball” stories further into the podcast.
I can't wait to see their take on their new woke culture southpark movie. It must be so good if Disney is going to be offended by it and willing to sue trey and Matt. 😅
Tbf there's nothing interesting about modern South Park, it only exists now just because. The whole schtick now is "depict current thing then move on to next thing", it has nothing to say and the episodes/specials barely have a shelf life. One of the great things about South Park in its prime was yes, it poked fun at current trends and events when it wanted to, but those old episodes are still so timeless.
@@spiritlevelstudios Exactly. Take the episode Manbearpig for example, obviously it was poking fun at the ex vice president, but it was used as a vehicle for another adventure for the 4 main characters. If that episode was made now it would just depict him saying what he actually believes in real life (instead of having it be an exaggerated joke like a monster called Manbearpig) and it would be all about that and who Al Gore is as a person, and the 4 boys would probably make a brief appearance at best, probably separately. You're right about seasons 1 through 10 being excellent, after that there were some really solid hilarious episodes for sure, but each season got more miss and less hit every year. The show really took a nosedive around season 18 and has been utterly awful ever since, and I hate how its whole identity has become "take a current thing and take a fence-sitting stance on it but also make fun of it." I also hate how the fanbase has gone from shock jock/Jackass types to a bunch of Reddit pseudo-intellectuals who think SP is the most genius, perfect piece of political satire ever, you can tell Matt & Trey have started to believe it too.
@@dvda9725 yeppers. Feels similar to Terminator l and ll fans denying any of the sequels exist 😅 There's something very respectable about shows like Seinfeld and Flight Of The Conchords having a good run and then dipping out. I think that exclusive deals like SP moving to Paramount and JRE moving to Spotify are a good sign that the course has been run, and long time fans need to accept that it's over. The motivator at that point is obviously money, but for no obvious reason. No one needs that much on top of what they already have.
@@marsoblivi0n945Oh quit it, how is everyone doing it? No one on mainstream networks is making fun of Biden. Trump, on the other hand, was and still is the target of relentless attacks, *THAT* shit is hack, and Trey and Matt are still doing it too. Sorry, but they've lost their creativity and they're bought.
Na that wasn't really his point, he was just pointing out that now it is liberal ideas which are more dominant in society, and it is more controversial to disagree with them (at least amongst people who are vocal about politics). Which is true.
What?!!! Oh come on. Look at the rest of the country. It’s all liberals censoring free speech, them and the small group that runs things that shall not be named 😉
Are you guys afraid of the Bidens because you have him in as president for 2 1/2 years and you could have none stop laughter for 5 years, get with it, fellas, your bottoming out
@@facesofevildeadOh cut it out, you inept dweeb. Biden is a child-touching dementia patient, every time he speaks or even moves he unintentionally creates comedic gold, if Trey and Matt still had their balls they'd bank off it immediately. Also, name one ridiculous thing Trump said.
@urbanyouths Lmfao what are you, a CNN reporter from 2015? He called his daughter pretty in a goofy old dad kinda way, admittedly it was odd, but he was quite clearly joking. Now name an *actual* ridiculous thing he's said in seriousness, I dare you.
@urbanyouths I'm not a worshipper, you stupid sack of dogshit, I'm just not a mindless moron who repeats idiotic mainstream media talking points. You don't know anything about Trump and you can't name a single stupid thing he's said in seriousness.
They played Gillian’s island on fox local channel here in Cali in the mornings all through out the 90’s I used to watch that shit. I was born in the early 80’s
