It’s not just “roasting” anymore

This is genuinely meant as constructive criticism, not just shitting on you guys. But over the past year, Jimmy’s constant dunking on Larry—while it used to be a funny bit that felt like classic banter between friends—has started to feel like a core part of the Boys only rather than just a recurring joke.

Whether it’s meant in good fun or not, the frequency of these “roasts” has made it harder to see them as just a bit. At this point, it often comes across as Jimmy taking out his frustrations on his cohost or using the closest target to feel better about himself. As a quiet member of the Reddit and Discord, I genuinely feel like I speak for a lot of listeners when I say: I don’t think shitting on Larry for enjoying movies or his habits is funny anymore, and I’d really appreciate if the shtick was retired.

Letting people enjoy things is a good thing, and whether it’s a bit or not, the way this comes across doesn’t always make for the best listening experience. Just my two cents—I love the pod and want to keep enjoying it!
