Watch Full Episodes on YouTube, Spotify and Apple. The My Boys rewatch is officially into Season 2 — and this one sent Mike Bunin, Jamie Kaler, and Victor Nelli in about 15 different directions. In this episode of Who Needs, the guys revisit My Boys Season 2, Episode 1, “The Transitioning,” and immediately discover that a few jokes from 2008 hit VERY differently today. They break down PJ and Bobby’s trip to Italy, debate whether two former hookups can really take a romantic Italian vacation “as friends,” revisit Mike’s Matthew McConaughey impression, and stumble onto one joke that stopped everyone in their tracks. Then, naturally, the conversation spirals into Gen X humor, dating and “backsliding,” joke stealing in stand-up comedy, Robin Williams, Bill Burr, Christopher Hitchens, Sting and The Police, Billy Corgan, songwriting credits, and why Jamie is apparently capable of arguing either side of absolutely anything. Somehow, they eventually make it back to the episode. In this episode: The My Boys joke that definitely didn’t age well Why Season 2 feels different nearly 20 years later PJ, Bobby and the Italy trip Mike Bunin’s Matthew McConaughey impression Dating, ghosting and the mysterious “backslide” How comedy has changed since the 2000s Comics stealing material Robin Williams and stolen jokes Sting, The Police and who really deserves songwriting credit Jamie Kaler explaining why he’s always right If you watched My Boys when it originally aired, tell us: what parts of the show still hold up — and what moments could never make it onto TV today?
