My Brother, My Brother And Me
Justin, Travis, and Griffin McElroy have been dispensing advice to strangers on the internet since 2010, and somehow they still have not run out of absurd Yahoo Answers questions to riff on. The premise is simple: listeners and random internet posts supply the questions, the three brothers supply answers that are technically useless but genuinely hilarious. Their chemistry is the kind you only get from siblings who have spent decades perfecting the art of making each other laugh mid-sentence.
Each Monday episode runs about an hour and tends to veer wildly off-topic, which is honestly the whole appeal. One minute they are debating the etiquette of bringing a whole rotisserie chicken to a movie theater, and the next they are workshopping a bit about haunted dolls. The humor is warm and absurdist rather than mean-spirited, which is partly why the show has built such a loyal following -- nearly 30,000 Apple Podcasts ratings with a 4.9 average after 815 episodes.
The McElroys have a gift for turning the most mundane question into a ten-minute comedy sketch. If you appreciate improvised comedy that feels like eavesdropping on the funniest group chat you were never invited to, this show delivers week after week. Fair warning: their laughter is contagious enough to make you the weird person cackling on the bus.
