[Intro Music Plays]
Griffin: Welcome to "My Brother, My Brother, and Me"! I'm Griffin, the youngest one.
Travis: And I'm Travis, the middlest one.
Justin: And I'm Justin, the oldest one. And we're here to answer your questions, and make each other laugh.
Griffin: That's right. So, what's on tap for today's show?
Travis: Well, we've got some great questions from our listeners. Like, "What are the best ways to prank your coworkers?"
Justin: And, "How can I win an argument with my partner?"
Griffin: And, "What's the best way to get rid of a ghost in your house?"
Travis: Let's get to it!
[Podcast Begins]
Griffin: Alright, let's get into this week's first question from our listeners.
Travis: Yes, I'm ready! Let's do this.
Justin: Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Is this one of those questions where we just start talking and see where it takes us?
Travis: Absolutely! That's my favorite kind of question.
Griffin: Me too. I love a good improv session.
Justin: Alright, fine. But I'm bringing my "A" game today.
Travis: Oh, it's on!
Griffin: So, this week's first question comes from Sarah in Omaha. Sarah writes, "What's the best way to deal with a co-worker who constantly takes credit for your ideas at meetings?"
Justin: Oh, this is a classic office problem. I've definitely dealt with someone like this before.
Travis: Yeah, it's always frustrating when someone takes credit for your hard work. But I've found that the best way to deal with it is to just be upfront and honest with them.
Griffin: I agree. Just pull them aside and calmly explain how their actions are affecting you. And hopefully, they'll listen and start giving you the credit you deserve.
Justin: Or, if that doesn't work, you can always go the passive-aggressive route and start putting your ideas in writing. That way, there's no denying where the ideas came from.
Travis: I love that idea! And if all else fails, you can always just claim credit for all of their ideas too. That way, you're both getting credit for everything.
Griffin: Haha, well, I wouldn't recommend that approach, but it's definitely a creative solution. So, Sarah, hopefully that helps with your co-worker dilemma.
Griffin: Alright, folks, it's time to step into the Money Zone!
Travis: That's right, this is where we talk about some of our favorite products and try to sell them to you, our dear listeners.

Justin: "Alright folks, it's time for another installment of Munch Squad! And today, we've got a real doozy of a press release for you all. It's all about the latest and greatest creation from [insert fast food chain here]. I'm gonna read it to you, and let's see what we think."
Travis: "Wait, before you start, I already have a feeling I'm not going to like this."
Griffin: "Me neither. I don't trust anything that comes out of a fast food chain's PR department."
Justin: "Well, let's give it a chance. Here we go. [reads the press release]. And that, my friends, is what they're calling a [insert menu item here]. Can you believe it?"
Travis: "No, I cannot. That sounds disgusting."
Griffin: "Agreed. It's like they're just trying to cram as many unhealthy ingredients into one sandwich as possible."
Justin: "Yeah, I mean, who in their right mind would eat that? I wouldn't feed that to my dog."
Travis: "I wouldn't feed it to my worst enemy."
Griffin: "I wouldn't feed it to my imagination."
Justin: "Well folks, there you have it. Munch Squad's official stance on [menu item]. Don't waste your money, don't waste your time, and definitely don't waste your taste buds on that monstrosity."
Griffin: Alright, let's move on to the next question.
Travis: Wait, before we do that, let's just take a moment to talk about this press release we just got. It's all about the latest fast food offering and let me tell you, I'm not impressed.
Justin: Yeah, I mean, I'm always up for trying new things, but this one just sounds...well, it sounds gross.
Griffin: I mean, who in their right mind would want to eat a taco made out of a fried chicken sandwich? That just sounds like a heart attack waiting to happen.
Travis: And the fact that they're calling it the "Cluck & Crunch" just makes it sound even worse.
Justin: But hey, maybe some people are into that kind of thing. Different strokes for different folks, right?
Griffin: I guess so. But for me, I'll stick to my classic tacos, thank you very much.
Travis: Agreed. So, next question!
Griffin: Alright, let's approach the wizard. Our question today comes from Quora, and it asks: "What's the best way to get rid of a pesky ghost that won't leave your house?"
Travis: Oh, we got a good one here!
Justin: Yeah, this is right up our alley. We've all seen plenty of ghost movies, so we know how to handle this situation.
Griffin: First things first, we need to establish if this ghost is friendly or not.
Travis: Right, because if it's friendly, we can just sit down and have a nice cup of tea with it.
Justin: But if it's not, we'll need to take more drastic measures. Maybe a good old fashioned seance?
Travis: Or maybe we'll need to bust out some ghost-busting gadgets like in Ghostbusters.
Griffin: Or we could just call in a professional ghost hunter. That's always an option.
Justin: But let's not forget the power of positive thinking. Maybe if you just talk to the ghost and explain your situation, it will leave on its own accord.
Travis: Yeah, it never hurts to try the simplest solution first. And if all else fails, you can always move!
Griffin: That's it for today's approach to the wizard. Tune in next time for more quandaries and solutions from My Brother, My Brother, And Me.
Griffin: And that's a wrap for today, folks! We want to give a big shout out to all of you for tuning in and making this show what it is. We love y'all.
Travis: Speaking of love, have you guys checked out our new merch yet? We've got t-shirts, stickers, and even custom-made keychains that are perfect for fans of the show.
Justin: And if you want to experience the magic of MBMBAM live and in person, don't forget to check out our tour dates. We're hitting up cities all across the country and we can't wait to see you there.
Travis: Alright, time to wrap things up. It's time for Griffin's impression of the week.
Griffin: And today, I'm going to end the show with my impression of a wizard approaching his next big adventure.
[Griffin clears throat and begins impression]
Griffin (as Wizard): "Greetings, fellow adventurers! I approach the unknown, ready to face any challenge with my wand in hand. For I am a wizard, master of the arcane arts, and nothing can stop me now!"
[End of impression]
Travis: And with that, we're outta here. Thanks for listening and we'll catch you on the next episode of My Brother, My Brother, And Me!
