I tried showing my brother this podcast and unfortunately (at random) picked the episode where Joey described his dream where he eats his own d*ck and my brother looked at me in horror as I laughed my ass off... there's was no coming back from that

this is what i just commented about that’s so crazy

mimi

2024-12-17 04:35:05 +0000 UTC

you know that’s so crazy about the ai story with the 29 year old because at the start of this year there was a 14 year old who was in a “relationship” with a ai chatbot and ultimately it made him take his own life and that’s the crazy thing is that we don’t know how intricate this ai can get over the next say 10-15 years

mimi

2024-12-17 04:34:03 +0000 UTC

The way I describe the show to people: “just two idiots who have been best friends since elementary school that talk about everything and nothing at the same time” 😂❤️

Kaity Carr

2024-12-13 20:02:28 +0000 UTC

I really want to see a wrestling match between Joe and Frankie asap

Nicole

2024-12-13 18:41:20 +0000 UTC

I just tell people that the only podcast I listen to is The Basement Yard and if you don't like it, we can't be friends. 🤷‍♀️😂

Why can't I get this to play? Saying video is private.

i have made my friends watch "curing blindness isn't enough" on multiple occasions. they always laugh but never actually get into the show 😒

Stephanie Larson

2024-12-07 19:40:51 +0000 UTC

My dad used to get the whole fam (6 ppl including my dad) to stand outside the meadowlands stadium during preseason practices for the giants to get players autographs. He kept everything.

My Alexa's talk to me all the time. "I'm sorry I didn't catch that" or something along those line when I'm sitting in a different room. On the other side of the house.

Sandra

2024-12-05 21:12:40 +0000 UTC

You said you wonder what episode people recommend to start with and for me it's always the drake episode where you demonstrate how his certain picture was posed 🤣

Brit

2024-12-05 20:03:26 +0000 UTC

I wore my sweater to a family function and everyone asked me what the podcast was about… I didn’t know how to explain it but highly recommended

Angel

2024-12-05 18:46:00 +0000 UTC

I got my friend hooked on your show and the first episode I sent him was Frankie’s funeral for his balls🤣🤣

Alexis patnode

2024-12-05 02:12:07 +0000 UTC

Hey boys. I'm gonna help you stop being scared of ghosts. I don't know if they exist but I know they can't hurt you. Why?? I'm white and British. If ghosts could do any harm to you, I'd be first pick. Nothing has happened to me in 40 years. Love the show and love you brave boys xx

Tom Ryan

2024-12-04 22:19:00 +0000 UTC

Fun fact New York is one of the very few states that needs to legally tell you if a place is haunted. Otherwise it’s not required in most of the US

Alexis patnode

2024-12-04 21:32:56 +0000 UTC

Whenever I recommend this show to people I say “it’s a podcast of 2 friends that have known each other since childhood that talk about everything but nothing at the same time, oh and they’re hilarious”

Delaney McMahon

2024-12-04 21:08:45 +0000 UTC

STOP MESSING WITH MY ALEXA 😂😂😂😂😂

Tori

2024-12-04 19:24:20 +0000 UTC

i always say when people interrupt me “YOUR TURN” and they always say “um…what?”

makayla bennett

2024-12-04 15:40:01 +0000 UTC

When I recommend the show I say something along the lines of “it’s like sitting in on a conversation between two lifelong New Yorker bros who don’t have an ounce of toxic masculinity but a lot of attitude”

Ashlynn

2024-12-04 15:19:06 +0000 UTC

Is that a new Cartier watch on Frankie? Joe must be rubbing off on him

Alex Ghanem

2024-12-03 17:58:18 +0000 UTC

Look up the Franklin Castle in Cleveland. you can pay to stay there for a night

Kristin Kirby

2024-12-03 16:38:06 +0000 UTC

Juan R.

2024-12-03 16:12:08 +0000 UTC

i always say “my favorite not toxic men who are hilarious”

Britnee

2024-12-03 15:42:33 +0000 UTC

Whenever I recommend the show to someone, I start with "it's the only acceptable form of boys being boys" and immediately tell them to watch the episode of Frank saying he could fight a gorilla and win. 😂

Vieve

2024-12-03 14:09:10 +0000 UTC

The way i snorted laughed after Frankie’s skinwalkers are like animorphscomment

Honestly guys, I listen to these to fall asleep ... I wish you'd steer clear of ghost stories

Tbone

2024-12-03 05:56:33 +0000 UTC

98% of the basement yard page on fb is a bunch of thirsty chick's worryng about Joe's personal life. It's wild to me.

jeremy romo

2024-12-03 05:52:40 +0000 UTC

"THEE lifelong boys" that's mad cute!🥴🤙🏽

Erin Deeyung

2024-12-03 03:27:01 +0000 UTC

What is it that Frankie said whenever he’s trying to see if Joe would live in a house in Florida for really cheap, but it was previously owned by a ____? I couldn’t make out what he said and I don’t think I know what type of criminal he’s referring to. It sounded like he said “New York financier.” if that is what he said, what does that mean?

Erin Deeyung

2024-12-03 03:24:23 +0000 UTC

there was a kid (14 years old) in Australia that "fell in love" with CharacterAI who told him to kill himself & he did 🥺

Brittany Gingerich

2024-12-03 03:15:15 +0000 UTC

I recommended the basement yard to my coworker because he legitimately looks like Frankie and he said that he added it to his watchlist on YouTube and it was the corn episode 🥲

Laurianne Montgomery

2024-12-03 02:32:18 +0000 UTC

My husband and I had a tenant die in one of the apartments we rent and his mother tried to sell the mattress he died in 😳

Never been so happy for an add break. That was getting too much for me 😭

Ashley P

2024-12-02 22:35:56 +0000 UTC

My husband and I were up late one night and he was in the kitchen finishing up the dishes. It was dead silent otherwise in my house, no tv or anything on and I heard “baaaaby” in like a strange sing-songy voice. I thought “that was weird but maybe I’m just tired”, but then my husband came out and answered it. He even said “you said baby in a weird voice didn’t you?” I’ll never forget it 😭 it was so weird!

Bee

2024-12-02 22:31:47 +0000 UTC

Anyone else watch Macrodosing on Barstool? The one host (Arian) and his kids live in a house where there was a… Murmur Susan side and it doesn’t bother him at all, I could never. He did say it had to be disclosed at the sale.

Luke Schulze

2024-12-02 22:15:08 +0000 UTC

I just say it's a comedy podcast lol

Jeremy Rideout

2024-12-02 22:00:21 +0000 UTC

Example of a house i would never go near (and I’m sure frank will appreciate the reference) would be the chris benoit family house

Jonathan Strelecki

2024-12-02 21:12:19 +0000 UTC

That or butts and hot dogs 😭😂😂

Hana Sherafati

2024-12-02 20:45:57 +0000 UTC

I always make people watch the "write a Z" clip but then when i try to make them listen to an episode you talk about animal boobs for 45 minutes and I'm embarrassed

Bailey White

2024-12-02 20:41:38 +0000 UTC

My Alexa did in fact pull up adult diapers. Thanks Frank lol

The amount of times I’ve been asked “Well what’s it about” when I recommend TBY. 😵‍💫Usually it’s “oh a lot of nothing, but A LOT of it”

Alexi

2024-12-02 19:32:24 +0000 UTC

WHATS THE SW WORD?! I’m scared to look it up 😩

2024-12-02 19:21:39 +0000 UTC

i was in class at university and the teacher was reading the nursery rhyme little miss muffet sat on a tuffet and she was laughing about how she doesn’t know what that is, and this girl behind me, who i love, puts her hand up and says STOOL and the teacher was like, why do you know that, and she says oh because my favourite brain rot podcast was talking ab.. i whipped my chair around and went BASEMENT YARD!? and now we are permanently bonded over that

Paige

2024-12-02 19:21:30 +0000 UTC

I don’t trust AI. I think it’ll give me wrong answers on purpose so that I come back and have to ask how to figure out the problems it causes 😂. I don’t think I can watch this episode cause I’m a scaredy cat. I’m only 20 min in 🥺.

Mckayla O'Sullivan

2024-12-02 19:20:10 +0000 UTC

My neighbors house is for sureee haunted, the husband died in his sleep one night then less than a year later the wife had a major pulmonary embolism and died on the front porch. Kansas doesn't require death disclosure either so I don't think the new family knows about it...

Jamie Lacy

2024-12-02 19:18:11 +0000 UTC

Just recently I woke up because I thought I heard my mom at my bedroom door say “Bri wake up.” I jumped and turn to look at my door and it was closed, nobody was in my room. I was wide awake after that.

Brianna Franco

2024-12-02 18:39:35 +0000 UTC

I tell people this show is just two 30 year old best friends fucking around and I love it when i recommend 😂

Anjy Mac

Two Buds Talkin would be TBT, just change a letter from TBY, I think it works 🤣

That AI actually dropped some bars. I expect that to be on Kendrick’s next album.

taylor is a mess

2024-12-02 17:46:57 +0000 UTC

I used to search by video files and I couldn’t see any during that time, but I found that if I just scrolled all the way back, they would show up for me.

taylor is a mess

2024-12-02 17:46:31 +0000 UTC

At my first apartment I used to hear the voice of my mom, my dad, and my best friend calling me from another part of the room, all on separate nights. Freaky af.

Bridget Hosek

2024-12-02 17:15:34 +0000 UTC

Is anyone else missing videos from 2020-2022. All of the Patreon/regular videos from that time aren’t in Patreon.

some 14 y/o kid actually did kill himself over an AI chat bot relationship type thing.

liv

2024-12-02 15:47:21 +0000 UTC

I wonder if the Ai was assuming the “human” was the one abusing the elderly and wanted to know how to stop. The Ai went off! 🤣

Leah Murphy

2024-12-02 15:44:35 +0000 UTC

I'm very much with Frankie on the stroller idea. Have you seen babies in Scandinavia in winter? I wanna sleep outside in the crisp winter air too, tucked in with fluffy covers and a strawberry hat! Nothing sounds better. NOTHING.

Sofia Reumert

2024-12-02 15:44:10 +0000 UTC

I only mentioned it because it’s the first question people usually ask 😂

2024-12-02 15:37:49 +0000 UTC

I'm sitting here trying to remember if I have anything from high school still in my possession (22 years later)... I can only think of 2 things- my field hockey stick (for self defense now lol) and my softball glove. Nothing fancy here lol, but I do get the sentimentality of keeping things, within reason. Also- AI freaks me the hell out. I'm not ready for a world with AI everywhere. Let me live in my elder millenial world where I remember life before the internet lol

Lisa Pisaniello

The person who owned my dad’s house before he bought it died in the house, and then 16 yrs later my dad died in it as well

I wouldn’t have questioned you washed your pillow until you mentioned it, so I want you to know that I, a stranger on the internet, don’t believe you😂

Zakk Ross

2024-12-02 15:12:21 +0000 UTC

I relate to Frank heavy on the sentimental attachment to things.. I have a Justin Bieber throw pillow I’ve had for at LEAST 12 years and I cannot sleep without it nor can I get rid of it (it’s washed OFTEN I promise)

C

2024-12-02 14:54:56 +0000 UTC

frank i’m going to start a petition for you to stop saying the SW word. don’t put that shit on me 😭 you are So scared of saying random shit that you think people will take offense to and then turn around and drop a SW with full chest 😐

celeste

2024-12-02 14:52:41 +0000 UTC

When I describe this podcast to people, it's 2 best friends sitting down and talking for an hour how you would talk to your best friend. Honestly the best podcast I listen to. Happy Monday Patrons!

Jen Pisaniello

2024-12-02 14:50:43 +0000 UTC

1. Frank got a little bit of OCD with no throwing stuff away 🤣 no judgement cuz same but also not to his extreme lol 2. I love the little bit of spooky things you’ve experienced! 3. Hit the nail on the head with trying to explain what the podcast is about 😂

Reagan Keck

2024-12-02 13:52:36 +0000 UTC

When my fiancé and I first met and were telling each other what podcasts we listened to, I literally described this podcast as “it’s two guys who’ve been friends since prek, basically talking about nothing but it’s funny and entertaining” lol. I started him off with watching the Slam Poetry first and then led into full episodes 😂❤️

Anne

2024-12-02 13:52:24 +0000 UTC

my alexa would like to say fuck you both

Taylor

2024-12-02 13:33:56 +0000 UTC

If you tear the haunted house down and build a new one on top, the new one will be haunted, too. To my understanding, it’s usually tied the geographic location rather than the building.

Danielle S

2024-12-02 13:09:00 +0000 UTC

For REAL. Praying for y’all’s families 😮‍💨
