    I Am Peter, Hear Me Roar // "Capt. Hack's Free Boat Giveaway" | Episode #015 | Family Guy Guys

    Family Guy Season 2 Episode 8 "I Am Peter, Hear Me Roar" recap and review: Jason, Tyler, and Collin watch Peter trade a free boat for a mystery box, bomb his way into thinking he's a comic, and get sent to a women's retreat by Candice Bergen's Gloria Ironbox. He comes home sensitive. Lois wants the old Peter back. The guys call this one an oof of an ep. For fans of U Talkin' U2 to Me?, Doughboys, The Sloppy Boys, and Cumtown: three longtime improv-comedian friends using a Family Guy rewatch as an excuse to escalate bits, spin off into our version of cutaway gags, and occasionally discuss the episode. Also in the mix: Captain Hack's Halloween costumes, Angela's first comment (cut the BS, make it under an hour), the Volume 1 DVD theory, Hulk Hogan's secret erogenous zone, Peter taping over the wedding video, the mystery box, open-mic war stories, "Three Whites," Mr. Weed, a mid-pod piss break, the mud-puddle chivalry bit, Quagmire as Don Draper, the Million Man March, and Lois vs. Gloria at the charity dinner. Stewie Gay Watch gets a pastry and nothing else. The Patreon threat remains in effect. Family Guy Guys is a comedy rewatch podcast where three improv comedian friends watch every single Family Guy episode in order, clip by clip, with zero pretense and even less structure. New episodes drop on YouTube. Would you take the free boat or the mystery box? Send the damage to feedback@familyguyguys.com or visit https://familyguyguys.com. This podcast is not affiliated with Seth MacFarlane, Fox, or the Quahog Airport Inn. We are three guys who watch a cartoon.

    Love Thy Trophy // "Animal Fax" w/ Sallie Bowen | Episode #012 | Family Guy Guys

    Family Guy Season 2 Episode 5 "Love Thy Trophy" recap and review, with special guest Sallie Bowen, the first woman ever allowed on Family Guy Guys. Jason, Tyler, Collin, and Sallie break down the Who's the Boss float, Meg's Prada purse crisis, and the golden trophy whodunit, and then Jason hits the wrong button and kills the recording mid-episode. For fans of U Talkin’ U2 to Me?, Doughboys, The Sloppy Boys, and Cumtown: three longtime improv-comedian friends using a Family Guy rewatch as an excuse to escalate bits, spin off into our version of cutaway gags, and occasionally discuss the episode. The neighbors build a float Peter can't stop winning with, Meg lies her way into a waitressing job, and Stewie gets cranked on pancakes while everyone accuses each other of stealing the trophy. Along the way they get into Lacey Chabert returning as Meg, whether Mad Men ripped off Family Guy, Quagmire's "from down here you look like a Pisces," Tyler's career as a period-accurate porn auteur, blue tent concussion protocol, Sallie declaring herself a gagger, the AI notes that hallucinated a better episode than the real one, and Charlie Kirk debating Jeeves in heaven.

    Brian In Love // "Y'all Mind If I... Praise God?" | Episode #011 | Family Guy Guys

    Family Guy Season 2 Episode 4 "Brian in Love" recap and review: Jason, Tyler, and Collin watch Brian piss on the carpet, frame a baby for it, and finally admit he's in love with Lois, which is the most plot this show has committed to all season. The ratings land all over the map, so one (or two!) of these three men is wrong and the other two (or one!) are never letting him (or them!) hear the end of it. For fans of U Talkin’ U2 to Me?, Doughboys, The Sloppy Boys, and Cumtown: three longtime improv-comedian friends using a Family Guy rewatch as an excuse to escalate bits, spin off into our version of cutaway gags, and occasionally discuss the episode. The guys get into Gary Janetti's return as the show's resident dog boy, a Mr. Rogers cold open where Stewie has destroyed the Land of Make-Believe, an extremely uncomfortable Jetsons gag, and Sam Waterston as Brian's therapist. Along the way they cover Tyler's Jehovah's Witness upbringing and the 144,000 open seats in the Galactic Senate, Chili's skillet queso after the memorial, Da Boom getting a fair shake and failing it, a Scooby-Doo vs Tim Allen gasp debate decided 2 to 1 over Jason's objections, Dean Koontz getting run over twice, the Lisa mattress promo code 10SEAMYOUPP, a throuple therapy session with a puppet shrink, a very pissy sweater, Quagmire's first full horn dog episode, a Stewie Gay Watch emergency after the bra unhooking, John Cougar Mellencamp's "Suckin' on a .45," and the greatest album cover never made: dog's red rocket and a gun. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Cold open: Jehovah's Witnesses and the 144,000 10:08 Da Boom gets a second chance 18:01 Episode intro: "Brian in Love" (March 7, 2000) 28:18 Gary Janetti, dog boy 33:01 The Mr. Rogers cold open 47:14 Lindbergh baby and Amelia Earhart 55:38 Peter's potty training flashback 1:02:08 Dr. Kaplan, played by Sam Waterston 1:11:08 The cuck chair 1:25:14 Scooby-Doo or Tim Allen? 1:32:39 Throuple therapy 1:39:33 Brian admits he loves Lois 1:52:32 The piss sweater 2:01:52 Lois lets him down 2:07:11 Final ratings Was Brian's gasp a Scooby-Doo or a Tim Allen?

    Chicken Fight / Boxing Day // "Da Boom" | Episode #010 | Family Guy Guys

    Family Guy Season 2 Episode 3 "Da Boom" recap and review: Jason, Tyler, and Collin watch the Y2K apocalypse episode people love, and it causes the biggest ratings split in show history. Two of the guys land on the love side of the split, with Collin pointing at Mila Kunis showing up as Meg for the first time as a possible factor. Tyler describes the whole thing as pure uncut gag. Jason, who watched the episode in a hot car while his daughter napped, calls it "not my cup of piss" and declares it a Gagger's Delight, which is somehow an indictment. Along the way they get into the first chicken fight, Peter in Lois' color-swap dress and "unzip me," Stewie as a gay Neil Armstrong, the Tom Selleck beans, the Randy Newman song Jason can still recite from memory, Twinkie the Kid, Quagland and Loretta in New Quahog, and Patrick Duffy washing the entire episode away as a dream. Plus the Stewie Gay Watch gets its biggest movement of the season, the "Oof of the Ep" award splits the room, and Bob of Bob's Artisanal Jib Jabs of Maine keeps derailing the episode to talk about baby Timothee Chalamet. Family Guy Guys is a comedy rewatch podcast where three improv comedian friends watch every single Family Guy episode in order, clip by clip, with zero pretense and even less structure.

    Holy Crap // "Rosie O'Donnell's WAP Era" | Episode #009 | Family Guy Guys

    Family Guy Season 2 Episode 2 "Holy Crap" recap and review: Jason, Tyler, and Collin break down Peter Griffin kidnapping the Pope to impress his terrifying Catholic dad, and the episode somehow goes off the rails from there. The guys meet Grandpa Griffin for the first time, voiced by two-time Oscar nominee Charles Durning, and watch Peter get desperate enough for his father's approval to commit a federal crime. Along the way they get into the Janet Jackson unc shooting poison, Rosie O'Donnell's 1999 WAP era, the concept of Ma, the 2026 Religion Draft, why Mr. Weed might be the best character on the show, Tyler's first Hinge date in two and a half years, the structurehead vs gagger divide, and whether Dick Van Dyke is swagless or still chopped.

    Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater // "(Peter Griffin's) House M.D." | Episode #008 | Family Guy Guys

    Family Guy season 2, episode 1, "Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater": the Family Guy Guys kick off their own second season with guest Tim Brewer, who joined mainly because he wanted an excuse to watch Family Guy. Correct answer. Aunt Marguerite comes to visit and is immediately dead, which nearly breaks Tim. The Griffins inherit a Newport mansion, Peter bids $100 million he does not have at a charity auction, and Brian teaches him to be a gentleman via shock therapy, which works until it doesn't. Stewie makes the servants fight to the death, Brian gets fully drunk for the first time and smacks Lois's ass, and the guys ask the important questions: are vampires circumcised, why does everyone in this family have the same nose, and what do you do if your house dog smacks your wife's ass (you put him down). Also covered: the Trojan Horse had a door in its balls, Colin did not cry during The Passion of the Christ and is going to hell, AI episode prep gets gaslit again, and the number one listenership remains military drones. Family Guy Guys is three longtime improv friends (plus whatever guest they tricked this week) watching every episode of Family Guy in order, no breaks, for what could be ten years. Take the Myers-Briggs-style quiz at https://familyguyguys.com to find out if you're a Structurehead or a Gagger. Fellas, what are you doing if a dog walks up and smacks your wife's ass? Wrong answers in the comments. #FamilyGuy #FamilyGuyGuys #PeterPeterCaviarEater #Podcast
