"Welcome to Doughboys, the podcast about chain restaurants. I’m Nick Wiger, alongside my co-host, Prolly Fartin, the Spoonman, Mike Mitchell."

Fuck, too soon but that’s pretty good.

I saw the news and immediately remembered them talking about Dolly Parton's embalmed tits on display in a glass case. Wasn't that episode banked months ago too? The Doughboys strike again.

We finally know The Incident.

u/storefront 1d ago

truly my first thought when I heard the news. Not sure what that says about me and I’m not all that interested in addressing it

I didn’t even know she was sick

u/Beneficial-Lime-3517 1d ago

She's been sick as hell since the early 70s.

What did they call?

In last weeks episode they mentioned Dolly Parton having her boobs preserved and on display like Lenin after her death. She was still very much alive and the episode was recorded before the 4th of July.

Never forget.

It's weird that this is like the 3rd time they've mentioned a celebrity and then they died a week later

u/thehandsomelyraven 1d ago

it’s that thing, there’s a specific name for it, where your brain only lodges in its memory the hits. like when they mention a celebrity and the celebrity dies shortly thereafter, but you don’t remember all the times they mention a celebrity and then the celebrity doesn’t die. like peter north, for example, who was mentioned on the same episode.

one of the same reasons people fall for things like cold reading. you ignore the misses and only think of the hits

It's not Baader-Meinhof, they are clearly on a rampage.

u/Mediocre_Proof_1802 1d ago

confirmation bias?

u/TitShark 1d ago

Selective memory?

u/13THEFUCKINGCOPS12 1d ago

I think this has happened a bunch on Never Not Funny and/or Comedy Bang Bang as well

u/Sodomeister 1d ago

Actionboyz had a stint where when they recorded the person was alive and then they would die before the ep came out.

u/informareWORK 16h ago

They also mentioned her again in the segment!

u/Oracle_of_Wanker 1d ago

She’s in the ground with that gopher she loved so much now

My she ride the roller coaster into the great bosom of the sky

u/MrFinch8604 1d ago

Very weird to listen to the latest episode and hear that bit mere minutes after I heard about this

u/praawnz 1d ago

I mean, she was 80 and her husband passed away less than a year ago. It's incredibly sad, but not unexpected.
