ICYMI: We made an appearance on Monday’s episode of The @tamronhallshow , where we got to talk about the pod and reviewed some of our favorite debates. Thank you #TamFam. It was truly an honor of a lifetime <3

after joking about making a podcast since 2016 (when this picture was taken) manny, noah, and devan (me) finally followed through. it feels a bit weird to be promo-ing this rn but making this was honestly so much fun. thank you @pjvogt , sruthi, garrott, noah, and the whole search engine team for allowing us to takeover as we try to get to the bottom of a question inspired by my former foster dog cheese, and the big dog ollie, why are there so many chicken bones on the street? spotify link in my bio and head to mannynoahdevan.com afterwards for some DVD extras. oh and scroll over to see 8-year-old roger’s artistic take on the first photo, which for some reason is still on my family’s fridge
my dad unexpectedly passed last wednesday and it’s been a really fucking hard week. i’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the things i didn’t get to say. the trips we won’t be able to take. the time we won’t be able to spend together. but i’ve also tried to take comfort in the memories we were able to share. forcing him to film me do monologues for my “talk show.” being disappointed in the mets. celebrating the yankees losing. 8-year-old me trying to explain to my mom that dad is right, larry david is hilarious. going to disney auditions and then making fun of how seriously all the other kids took it. checking movie times in the newspaper. crying after g baby died in hardball. crying at the end of the iron giant. saying “that white boy can sing” after chester’s part in numb/encore. riding go-karts. arguing about kanye’s best album (he thought it was college dropout but it’s clearly mbdtf). that one time he thought he was gordon ramsay because he cooked a turkey in a bag. buying me a brand new bike for college. it getting stolen the first day i rode it. when we casually ran into the big show at universal. all the trips to the nike outlet. complaining about jacob degrom being hurt. sending me 20 minute long youtube videos that i “definitely” watched. repeatedly asking why i named ollie, ollie. me repeatedly reminding him he came with the name. him repeatedly saying, “well that’s a good dog name.”
thanks for everything dad. i love you
