I met Doug in Royal Oak MI. After a Cheech and Chong show , Doug opened and was the best part of the show , Chong left the show in a station wagon , and Doug wanted to party with us , and I couldn't 😢 I had a work van and back then no cash , instantly knew he was on the up, I still regret today that I didn't offer him candy and a back seat in the van
Never seen two grown men happier to talk about rollercoasters and theme parks... so awesome! Berk, you're so awesome dude! I've been watching everything you're on lately. I'm so glad I seen you on JRE a few times and decided to look into your stuff more!
My senior year in high school we went to Kings Dominion in Virginia. Their dropper counts down from 5 and drops at 3. My buddy rode it twice. 2nd time some woman next to him was scared it would fuck up and freaking out. He told her "everything will be fine. Just as long as it counts down all the way. If it drops early, we're screwed." It was FUNNY AS SHIT!!!
I've enjoyed the first hour and based off the description "Louis CK, alternative touring, & greening out on dabs." the last 36 minutes should be awesome. I like Doug on this podcast much better than when he host Getting Doug With High as he cuts off his guest a lot and interrupts their funny stories. I wish he'd ditch the cue cards and just talk. Just like this or Joe Rogan. Love Doug, his pods, stand up so not hating. Bert, you're the fucking man!
David Francis Can see where you're coming from, but most of doug's podcasts take place at venues/shows, the exception being in studio tapings of getting doug with high, which I believe is a shared studio. Although I'm sure there are times he can push the time, I'd think in most cases that he's working within a pretty set schedule.
David Francis I Too feel what your saying, but im sure he feels a lot of pressure to try to be and look as "Legit" as possible. Leading by example, keeping the show focused on more than a few people getting stoned and the rambling about nothing... kinda like this show and so many others. He tries to keep every one updated on the political issues, and voting events across the nation, and also keep the focus on his guests. We aren't there to watch Doug complain about random events (like this show) we watch to see what surprise hopefully famous person is willing to show they smoke, and see how they act, and find out more personal things about THEM. (poor Jack Black) Its like being party Host as apposed to party attendee...
David Francis i am also here for doug XD LOVED THIS SO MUCH. it has revived my love for coasters and amusement parks :O Havent been since i was a child
I dont know how I'm just seeing this episode now aha but if you guys haven't yet you should make a trip to Canada and go to "Canada's Wonderland" its our best amusement park and has some of my favorite roller coasters!!!
Bert, this wasn't my favourite episode, I've watched a ton of your stuff lately though. From my perspective I need to hit on you talking about working construction, I'm coming off of 20 years of it, thank you for giving props to my profession and my geography. I've heard you mention Edmonton a few times, it's not always an easy place to make a living.
+Devin Schien Hulk is pretty sweet, but the "Dueling Dragons" (as it was called before the Harry Potter theme) was better IMHO. Maybe it's the close-quarters setup that makes it more nerve-racking or the simultaneous loop where you almost crash head-on into the other coaster, but it felt way more intense. It's been a couple of years, so I can't clearly recall, but I heard they don't launch both coasters at the same time ever since Harry Potter took over. Lame :(
Benson is the worst. One trick pony. He makes weed less enjoyable. We get it dude...weed. This is the longest I've heard him not mention weed. And it was even less enjoyable than when he does.

yay video. love it!
Very Nice
Yes!!
Somebody needs to take a 360 degree camera onto a rollercoaster. I think that would give a good effect.
The cast of VEEP is the funniest on TV.
So your saying you need a show where you go around Europe and ride different amusement parks? I need this aswell.
I dont know how I'm just seeing this episode now aha but if you guys haven't yet you should make a trip to Canada and go to "Canada's Wonderland" its our best amusement park and has some of my favorite roller coasters!!!
The whole time Im thinking mind eraser at eliches, and then they mention elitches

RIP Pigeon Forge :(
what about the Hulk at universal, that was wild. Starts by you getting launched out of a tunnel.

ohh thats too bad, im glad i got to ride both of dragons when they were still open
Upload the jim jeffries podcast episode...

Millennium Force > Top Thrill Dragster
Wooden coasters are worse than a gang initiation.
Anyone else think that Doug Benson's standup was hilarious until he started reading his tweets live>?
Well don't follow his Twitter and you won't see them before hand.
