way late to the party, but I finally signed up for the Patreon, and man am I glad I did. Crying laughing at Murph losing his mind, which I fully would be too had that happened to me.

Ted Fryar

Bang has some great flavors, it’s my go-to brand.

Basil McDonough

Ill have to try reign. In general though id say red bull for results, monster for a beverage with a kick, and zoa or bang for day to day (not that you should drink any of these every day or multiple times a week), zoa getting a bonus for kinda actually being made of healthy shit and bang gets a bonus for zero sugar, bonkers flavors and being chock fulla creatine. I do feel like murph did zoa dirty though.

This was fun to listen to as someone who hates energy drinks and also has never drank one (unless you count sharing a blue Poweraid with my sisters when I was like 6)

"mountain dew is for babies" American mountain dew is actually not allowed in Australia as it is deemed not fit for human consumption.

I'd drink gamer girl energy backwash. I'm not wierd I promise.

Shmule Scanlon

I'm gonna do this but have a different energy drink every morning

Em

What a beautiful shit storm. You guys should definitely try the Mango Monster and Monster coffees! Those are my absolute favorite.

I’m confuse but I laughed so 🤣

There IS a grenade shape energy drink. It's called BOMBA. They used to sell it México, but it's been a long time since I've seen one. I have no idea if it's still available, but there's still a website. https://bomba-energy.com/bomba/

Ok but I heard Caldwell reference Digimon. Yall should do a Digimon mixed bag!

Charles Murphy

Jake: why milk?

In case anyone wants to follow along with them-- * Redbull (normal) - everyone * Monster (normal) - everyone * Rockstar - (“summer spotlight”?) - everyone but Jake * 3D (Pure silver can) - Just Jake instead of rockstar * Mountain Dew (Tropical sunrise) - Caldwell and Jake * Monster (Ultra violet) - Emily and Murph Wildcards * Reign (orange dreamsicle) - Emily * V8 energy (I think peach mango flavor) - Jake * The Rock’s ZOA (original?) - Murphs * GFuel (Peach Rings by Sonic) - Caldwell Snacks lol * Blue takis

Cady Speelman

I agree, I like them both. But I think that it's more of a morning drink- like a coffee substitute, not a full "energy drink" for working/gaming. I put the Mountain Dew Rise in the same category.

Victoria Oh

This was, in fact, the Mixed Bag that pushed me to upgrade so I can listen to it

Ted Orbach

Weirdly enough this made me really want to grab a monster lo carb

KillerCroc

Might depend on the rockstar u buy. The new ones have a different flavor that isn’t great

Tyler

This is even better than I expected it to be.

Nick

This was everything I didn't know I needed. Emily's rating system is such Emily energy and Murph getting frazzled about while they're all hyped up on energy. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 🤙🏻

Jessie Kelly

“I’ve been cleansing my palate with milk inbetween,” and then Emily’s reaction to that made me actually howl in laughter at 6 am before my coffee. Hope y’all are having a great day

Michael McDougall

Just re-listening to it, and with taste being subjective, I think that the intensity of the flavor is more important to know then 4 specific people's opinions, so Emily's rankings are better imo. Also, if there's ever a repeat, the whole confusion could have been avoided by adding a 3rd category, so the scales could be: Tang = Intensity of the flavor Bang = How hard the energy hits you Hang = How much you enjoyed it and would be willing to sip on while just hanging

Cam WH

absolutely chaotic energy this mixed bag and loved it, but aren't sommeliers supposed to rate wines in a descriptive way to help others with their decisions on what to buy and why? tang & bang being purely if the gang liked it or not didn't make sense. it doesn't make sense for a sommelier to rate subjectively rather than objectively.

1st mix bag I've listened to, and my God I am so happy!

Josh the Alchemist

I agree, but I'd also put forth the Super Dry that has been discontinued for at least a year now.

JigMink

I recommend that Jake try a V8 Energy that isn't expired. They make a non-carbonated version and a sparkling version.

Caitlin Sales

(C)up(ho)l(de)r Beautiful, I can imagine the cheeky can design that scratches out the u-p-l-r

Lucas Bond

I would pay ungodly amounts of money for Emily's Spit bucket

Sam Killjoy

If only Caldwell had found the chili dog flavored G Fuel. It’s real and upsetting.

Not Another D&D Podcast

Does Raasay not use the "tang" and "bang" method?

Olivia C.

The people that would buy gamer girl backwash are the same people that talk shit about the gamer girl.

Matthew McDowell

Could tred nevers lead a hard seltzer tasting

Frank Mastromatteo IV

You are all so whack.

Someone probably already said this but it should’ve be “taste & haste”

Lunar Skirmisher .

Reign is so freaking good

The chaos of this episode was hilarious

Theodore Carraro

Please please please try the peach-nectarine Red Bull. It’s the only red Bull flavor I like

Mad Dungeon Mama

I would buy it

I can't believe they are so down on the rockstar! I drink them all the time and love it

Geraint

Jake has since contracted severe diarrhea from the rotten V8

Stefan Maroni

"Murph Sheathe your blade" LMAO

As a night shift ER Nurse/ Tiefling hexblade warlock I stand by Emily’s 15/15 of orange dreamsicle, I’m just getting by on short rests 😂

Joe S

So many things make this show elite: the performing, the voices, the storytelling, the talented improv, the editing, the music, etc etc... but the most important elements that makes this show elite? The wild charisma and the chaotic energy that makes us want to listen to the cast do everything from drink and rate the tang and bang of energy drinks to weighing in on matters of CRITical importance in DM court.

JoWade

Axford Inspitute of Orange Tang.

JoWade

Felt like a great TangBang !

Noah James Perito

Omfg.I hate how much this made me want to have an energy drink

ConflictedDM

Anyone had the Plus Ultra My Hero Acadamia energy drink?

ConflictedDM

Also I thought I was the only one who messed with my mouth squirters. But now I drool alot.

ConflictedDM

Tang & Bang...this is what I'm paying for? This mixed bag was fucked from the beginning. Gonna do my own taste test.

Calum Gillies

I do whisky tastings for a living so this was both horrifying and incredible to listen to

Bishop Lewis

I think the rating scale should we go on like this: the tang is how pleasurable it is to each person, how well liked the taste it. The thing should’ve been the intensity of sugar/drink. This way you have an objective and personal favors Murph and Emily.

Mitothy

I would not pay for gamer girl backwash, but I would pay so much money to gaslight Murph for 1 hour.

SnickerdoodleRogue

So what I'm hearing is that Jake's new hustle is gonna be a Naddpod energy drink in a healing potion bottle?

Magna Ma'am

I was just waiting for Murph to have an aneurysm there for a minute. Omg. I peed myself a little laughing so hard. This ep is for the bang and tang and squirters.

Garga Lenoir

When you first had this idea I thought it would make for terrible radio and I would have to give the episode a perfect 10/10, but it was actually incredibly funny! I'll give you 27.5/??!

Luke M. Thomas

I just got disciplined at work because I was laughing too hard at this mixed bag. I’d rate this mixed bag a 10/10 in both tang and bang

Pork Chop

So glad you guys grabbed a bang they all taste ridiculous. There’s one that tastes like a mouthful of skittles.

There is an energy drink in a grenade shaped bottle, its called bomba and i love it http://bomba-energy.com/bomba/

Will Erwin

Love this. You guys have got to try the Blueberry Red Bull! It's easily my favorite energy drink! Take your taste buds on a flavor journey unlike any you've ever experienced. The hint of blueberry flows over your tongue like a waterfall as the intense 'kick' of the red bull gets your heart racing at a more pleasant pace than it's rapid-acting sister drinks. Tang: 10/10 Bang: 10/10 My brother and I love you guys! Cody and Will

I love that mixed bags have turned into fucking with Murph! It is so funny every single time

DT

This is the most energetic and pumped up mixed bag ever. Instead of tapering off as the episode went on they went on a rampage.

Canid

Can't do red bull, reminds me of yeager bombs. Monster OG literally makes me feel like i'm having a heart attack. Never had rockstar, Bang, or G Fuel. I'm all about Nos. Too bad it wasn't tested. Reign is pretty good and i just remembered about full throttle which i haven't had.

Abe C

Totally suggested the Reign Orange Dreamsicle after the coliseum episode 😂😂 I definitely feel honoured to know Emily and I have the same taste in energy drinks.

Tyler T.

LMAO Jake had to be gaslighting Murph, the Tang and the Bang is the exact format of the Goat Show there’s no way he didn’t understand

JorgeAgoias

It’s okay Murph you 100% explained Tang and Bang clearly! Couldn’t breath during that part😂😂😂

preston packer

I found the peach rings sonic G-fuel in a gas station in the middle of nowhere while doing a firewood run to the nearest city while camping. I only bought it because of my found memories of 8bbc. I regretted buying the hog. They need to reroll that hog cause it ain't right

Jack

Wait murph messed up his own system lmao on Rockstar he was talking about taste with bang. Such a wild mixed bag I loved it

Logan Klein

Reign Orange Dreamsicle is my favorite

David Pugh

Grrrriip it and RIP it, babyyyyy

David Pugh

"Yeah I shoulda got some NUTS." -Murph 32:50

Evan V

Rockstar Pure Zero Silver Ice is my favorite! It tastes nothing like the “regular” Rockstar!

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

No Monster Khaos but sweet, sweet chaos does ensue!

SYDNEY TATUM

Bang donated to trumps re-election campaign

Sean Rooney

I love V8 energy. But the peach mango was not one of my favs. It's black cherry followed by blueberry pomegranate

A.E. Ross

tang it n' bang it, boys

Jack Campau

YES. I WAS HOPING FOR THIS SEGMENT

It's funny to me that Caldwell thought the Monster had a bit of a cotton candy taste because me and my friends would mix Monster Lo Cal with some Dekuyper Watermelon Pucker Liqueur which end result does taste exactly like cotton candy

Chris P. Bacon

Guys this is so funny and so vile. I really should not have drank a protein shake while listening to the V8 part.

Not Another D&D Podcast

WOOPS. Sounds like I've drank my last-ever Bang Energy drink. ~Caldwell

Molly

Murph losing his shit is always a good ep. Also Red Bull coconut is shockingly good

Adam Gomez

Aw I miss when 8bbc would talk about sonic’s stinky feet 😌

Ben Delahay

I’ll also let everyone k is the V8 Peach Mango flavor is really, really good. If I could still drink caffeine I would rate it 10/10

Ben Delahay

Hey guys, just so you know before you try the Birthday Cake drink the owner of Bang is like a die hard Trump supporter!

H-Train

very funny episode, loved it, but an objectively bad mukbang

H-Train

no hate to y’all but this might just be the worst mukbang of all time, just by virtue (or sin) of the facts that 1) the subject is being drank (not eaten) 2) the subject is so obviously gross 3) one of the mukbanger’s very outwardly hates it

Stephen Jay

I love how fast they got hyped on caffeine 😂 Anybody else on their 3-4th energy drink of the day by the time this dropped?

Birdie

Wow, the GOAT Show sure has changed a lot🤣

Courtney F.

When I was just outta high school, there was a Monster versus Rockstar thing akin to Playstation versus Xbox. It was wild. But anyway, I always thought Monster tasted like cough syrup and Rockstar was better. I'm gonna call it a cilantro thing and tell everyone from high school we were all wrong. Thanks y'all. 15 year mystery solved.

Timothy the Terrific Tabaxi

I love how quickly things go off the rails! This is podcasting at its finest.

Mirarreiro

I'm so glad I pay extra for this content 😂😂😂

Laura

I’m laughing so hard, everyone is yelling

Kyle Veach

This was a delight 😆 There's a few I wish had ended up on the roster, but the Sonic thing and the Bang were GOLD, well done Caldwell

Kris Warrington

I can't believe what I'm listening. These crazy sons and daughter of bitches!

WunDarWun

You beautiful maniacs

Owen T

You could make a little water gun for a 5hr energy drink

Owen T

I think I remember that

I don't know if they still do it this way but the energy drink company gripp used to sell bottles that looked like grenades

Noah James Perito

This is Peaking

Nick Spivey

I’d love if they slowly increased the speed throughout the pod

Total mad lad behavior

The absolute mad lads

Pj

This was a perfect opportunity for a GOAT show podcast collab.

sesamese

oh no edit: i have to say the very best energy drink is the fruit punch flavor of Monster thats been discontinued for 3 years

Bonky Fiasco

If this doesn't include recommended food pairings I will riot.

ThrilloftheFright (Ashleigh)

Update: oh noooo! Murph has already torn Pipeline Punch apart without even tasting it 🤣

Joseph

I cannot believe you actually did it.

ThrilloftheFright (Ashleigh)

The pink Monster is my favorite (when I very rarely drink an energy drink). Hopefully it doesn't get torn to shreds XD

All Pulp! No Juice!

We are slowly entering the “Jackass” phase of mixed bag. That isn’t a compliant for the record.

Rosanna

Oh fuck all the way off I’m so glad I signed up to this

Jeffrey Steck, Lord of the Fjord

My cousin works for Monster so any negative reviews will be reported to her.

Thomas Ricketts

LETS FUCKING GO

Lauren Listing

I guess I am spending my night with 2011 flashbacks

Noah Jay

Doing the hard work so we don't have to, bless. Knowing Emily can't even handle more than a single cup of coffee, I'd love to know what happened after the recording.

Immediately started giggling when I read the notification
