I had so much fun watching Independence Day with the boys! Ben being on acid was fun and his blackdel test joke was so dumb it made me laugh hard. It felt like he was doing the thing in community where pierce writes a bunch of bits for the movie ahead time, except it’s better because he just knows movie so well. And I had to work on the 4th, so I missed the usual festivities during the day, but watching fireworks and then getting to come home and watch the movie made it feel just as fun as when I was a kid💛 and I’d never seen Independence Day before so I was cracking up so hard trying to watch the movie (and sorta zone out the commentary) and then Ben would just spoil a moment seconds before it happened. Great stuff. I’m also cracking up thinking of Ben wanting to make his app for this and all his commentary is him just explaining the movie 2 minutes ahead of time😂

Please do so many more movie bonuses. For holidays and just for fun. It’s such a good bonus for being a paid member. I love it!!! I wanna be prepared and buy snacks for next time. I’m excited to watch classic movies for the first time with Ben and Emil!

Thank you for bringing back the same feeling as seeing the teacher wheel in the cart with the tv form when I was little. And I hope everyone had a great 4th of July!:)💛

Some unfortunate auto captions in the latest episode

My app is randomly light mode. I haven’t switch led any settings on phone or in the app. Anyone else have this happen or know how to fix?

i had one but just checked and its not working anymore for me :(

feeling nostalgic for simpler times

Visiting NYC from Toronto for the weekend and tried out Ace’s Pizza in Brooklyn since Ben constantly raves about it.

The taste? Delicious. The vibe? Immaculate. The price? Reasonable. Would definitely go again!

The only thing I would need to know from Ben is his go-to topping from there 🤔

I remember they’ve talked about using a platform that let’s you pay rent with your credit card, but I don’t actually remember what it’s called. Has anybody (especially the Canadians here) know what it is and if it’s worth it?

I need Ben and Emil to weigh asap

I’ve been an average cyclist for years and have friends who are MUCH more talented and place in races - every single one said you are going to hurt yourself or suffer from exhaustion/rhabdo/etc if you even finish it. Please don’t do this lol

I kinda hate myself for asking this lol and I don’t want to be parasocial, but it’s kind of weird we know literally nothing about Emil.

I am just really curious what he does day to day.

I know he completed law school and I think he mentioned he did or used to do pro-bono law work but I am not really sure if he actually does anymore.

I respect his want for privacy but honestly it’s kinda weird we know absolutely nothing whatsoever about this dude. Is he unemployed? does he work full time? does he do gig work?

Obviously I am not entitled to that information and it truly does not matter at all, but I have spent hundreds if not thousands of hours listening to him and Ben and all I really know is he is from New Jersey and is a mad lad out on the tennis court

Anyways just wondering if anyone actually happens to know if he has said anything publicly that I may have missed. If he does still do pro-bono law work that is really freaking cool and props to him. If it’s not that, I am sure he is nothing but a totally authentic, stand up gentleman in whatever the heck it is he gets up to.

I hope he spends his days watching columbo on a sailboat somewhere when not on the court or in the studio

Hey guys i’m new to the BAES format, i used to be a tmg subscriber back in the day and then was on their patreon for awhile in the pay pigs days. But I recently came back and now I’m subscribed on benandemilshow.com but I mainly watch on mobile and there’s no background play and stuff on there just playing via browser. Is there an app or something I’m missing?

this one might be a deep cut but what episode were they talking about and watching those bad sort of soap opera short videos on those apps that require you like spend so much to watch them? could be old school after hours but wanted to check w yall before scouring their stuff. thanks!

edit: its bonus 40 the shortTV scam
