Short Rest: C3 Ep. 26: Big Bev

Honestly surprised we didn't get the full 9-space alignment chart with burp/noburp as one axis and fap/nofap as the other. :D

The Jake burp story—I so understand this. I call mine “frog burps.” I can’t either man. Haha. So seen.

I know I'm months behind, but wanted to shine some light on the burp issue and medical advice! If you go see a speech therapist who specializes in vocal strengthening, similar to what Emily was theorizing, you can be given exercises to improve your "throat sphincter" as you called it. My throat muscles were not working properly and I was overcompensating using my shoulder muscles and my doctor was able to help me learn to use my vocal chords correctly. Once I started working on improving my vocal chords, I could not STOP burping! Related to this, I also had thr silent type of heartburn which contributed to this issue. Long and short of it, you aren't alone and I wish you many good burps!!

I think I'm in the minority, but I wish this ep had more dnd talk

Zach Jewell

Speaking as a fellow 37 year old who has chronic stomach aches, fuck off.

Doctor Ransom

Anyone else disappointed there wasn't a clip of Jake's ribbits?

Jonathan H Brennan

I also was unable to burp until a few years ago! Was rough and the chest pains were awful

Ryan watson

Finally someone who has gone through the weirdly specific problem I’ve had, not being able to burp is rough.

Clemming

Absolutely wild that Jake has never had a stomach ache- from chronic stomach ache haver

Hyena

I’m late to this, just catching up on episodes and I learned how to burp when I was 18 at Thanksgiving. My mom said I struggled as a baby instead of burping I would just cry and then spit up. Crazy how many people out there don’t know how to burp!

Bro I’m 13 and burp and feel pain when need to poop some time

Sawyer Bernard

I tuned out for half a second and now they’re aligning types of jerking off how did we get here

frannberry

I have 1uncle johns 1 cousin John and my dads name is John! I also have two mikes and 2 aunt Angie’s! We talk about then by going “cousin John” or “aunt Angie” instead of my aunty Angie

YungAshley

Jake!!!! I don’t burp all my carbonation up either and so I’ve never been able to drink beer or anything without all that chest pain! I can burp regularly but can’t burp after drinking carbonation. Everyone thinks I’m crazy but it’s 34 years of this shit! I thought I was alone!

Mary Colligan

We had a Larry and a Little Larry in our family. Little Larry was called that into his late 40s

Mae B

As a Greek, there are so many repeated names. We can usually differentiate with, like, “John Jones!” And “John James!” Or “Uncle John!”

Mak

I'm LOSING MY MIND my friend was literally telling me about this burp reddit and doctor in Chicago and everything. Hahahahah

Kaileigh Rose

I have a friend who literally cannot burp. This is a thing! Hahahahaha

Kaileigh Rose

Alternative: Jake goes to the doctor

Isa Gamez

Can we please mixed bag that is jakes medical history. The world must know

Isa Gamez

As an adult uncle Johnny, I appreciated the John convo

Johnny_Johnster

this has been my favorite short test ever, and as someone who has listened to every short rest, that’s saying something

Jo

Ok so, my mum has 2 bothers, called Peter and John. My uncle Pete (coincidentally is over 6 foot tall and used to play Rugby) named his son Pete, so we have big Pete and little Pete! It gets better; my dad is called Pete too, but he gets nicknamed Pedro, it's rather amusing having all three in the same room 😅

Melissa 'Mj' Fordos

I CAN’T BURP except it’s surprised me about four times in my adult life lmao

Marin Wilson

Anime is science.

Jaden Saied
