We like to joke about how Twitter is a dumb website where nothing ever gets done and nothing matters. And for a large portion of the time, this is true. Twitter is a time suck. People get in dumb arguments. Things end up being way more important than they actually are.
But there are also connections being made. Likeminded people meet up – in real life, or just in long Twitter conversations – to laugh, to share opinions, and to goof off. It leads to some truly amazing moments. And in the case of @TomBroDude, amazing humanity came out of a tragedy.
We brought in some of Tom’s internet friends to discuss his life, and, well things went off the rails immediately. So we honored him faithfully. We also have a second podcast where we discuss the Miami Hurricanes.
Here were some of the topics:
- Our favorite tweets from Tom
- How humor is a mirror for real life
- Trillballins saying “folks”
- Trill having an extremely woke take about Coinstar
- Toyotathon
- There was a crow in the background that wanted to be heard
- What’s the ceiling for Mark Richt at Miami
- And more

Special thanks to the band Annabel for our intro and outro music. They’re really good. You should buy their music at their website or perhaps see them play a show some time.
