The problem with goku amd chip and dale is that its naddpod versions. Thats surprise round goku who murdered a guy for bullying him and those will be character brunch chip amd dale
Crazy that no one considered Vegeta is IN the picture with Goku. If we’re counting both Chip and Dale together, we unfortunately HAVE to count Goku and Vegeta together.
I have gotten used to Emily not knowing any pop culture, so it was really funny to have a generic joke about airplanes confuse her so profoundly right up top
NADDPOD Crash will beat the piss out of you. Video game Crash opens the plane door
8 or 10 before listening for sure
4 and 10 being considered the best seats is WILD Crash is within an arms length with no immediate blockers, and as aisle seats Fat Bastard can grab you any time he gets up. Goku will protect you but not until you've already been attacked, leading to grievous bodily harm. In seat 3, you have the protection of a layer of people separating you and Crash, and you're in Goku's line of sight so if Crash does come for you, he will protect you without you coming to harm.
“It must be so cool to be apart of something like that” meanwhile Murph I’d be just as star struck meeting any of the crew 😭
I think all of yall might be underestimating the amount of chaos stitch could unleash. Not to mention his constant burps
re-listening to this while baked was an insane decision
I wanna see a one shot where the band of boob's has to sit through an 8 hr flight with these people.
after months of thought: #10. close to the exit, you keep an eye on everyone, you are close to the bathrooms and attendants and the chipmunks are small.
Except Cranky's old ass is gonna have to climb over you every time he has to take a piss!
What’s the origin of Crash in the NADDPODverse being a killer? Haha
I can't remember which one but there's a surprise round where you get a 1 hour rewind a year but also once a year crash comes and kicks your ass. Not necessarily a killer, but definitely someone to truly *ahem* crash your day
Golu would be doing push-ups in the walkway and eat everything in the plane
Crash is going to stare you down the whole time if your seat 10. And that coked up version of crash might still try something
Bcp ppl l m Ll
caldwell's austin powers voice was so spot on, "Lets watch kung fu panda, Baby!" i lostttt it
This is the easiest choice ever. Seat 4. Done
I really like looking out of the window on an airplane, so I’ll gamble on seat 5 hoping that when Crash attacks me, as is is wont, Austin Powers and Goku can jump in to save me. Then Crash gets put into air jail, and I get two seats for myself
I love how they’re talking about sitting next to celebrities and to me they are celebrities, I would die sitting next to…. Like who the heck is Carl Urban? I’d rather sit with the NADDPOD all day long.
murph you gotta stop interrupting your wife 😂
People are forgetting that whilst Goku is a "hero", he also rolls minus stats on perception and insight.... When he's not in a fight, he's a very hungry oblivious Saiyan 😅😅
You don’t think Goku would sense Crash Bandicoot’s powerful ki?
Does anyone else, including the creators I guess, find it weird that the podcast has seized on a joke that was gross and fatphobic even for the mid 00s to pick up as a runner? Like, it was bad enough as a one off but I don't understand how people find it funny to carry this joke forward???
I believe it's very much millennial humour of irony ontop of irony... It's funny that anyone ever though this was funny, because it's not and it's a horrible and awful joke.... If that makes any sense....
Seat 5 is so cursed
The last flight I took I played Crash Bandicoot on my switch... would that make Crash more or less likely to murder me?
Id say seat 4 too. Also I really think Emily should watch Lilo & Stitch. I think she would really enjoy it.
Seat 4 so I could secretly fall in love with Goku and Austin Powers just as a distraction from everything else. If my wife saw this plane attendance, she would understand.
I feel like live-action Great Gazoo kinda looks like Elon Musk in his photo. Does anyone else see that? It affects where I'd sit for sure
I see it now that you've pointed it out, for sure
CALDWELL HAS A CRAZY GOOD AUSTIN POWERS IMPRESSION
how did no one talk about how the downside of seat 10 is you’re right in the blast zone for fat bastard’s farts! plus, he’ll have to pass you to go to the bathroom, and you know that’ll be a disaster. seat 4 all the way
I’m sitting with goku so I can try to bum a senzu bean off him. But let’s be honest this plane is going down if it even makes it off the runway.
I don't think you need to be worried about Fat Bastard hurting Stitch. Stitch can juggle cars.
I’m gonna make it my LinkedIn profile picture
Chip and Dale in their rescue rangers costumes are just miniature versions of magnum PI and Indiana Jones.
I think you could definitely convince Goku to trade seats and have him take seat 9 and you sit in the isle seat
Ok ok everyone listen to your a “mean one Mr Grinch” and think about Fred’s hygiene and think about 6 again
Listened to this on a plane and imagining ANY of these people sitting next to me was wild. That said I would absolutely sit between the Grinch and Fred Flintstone just for the experience.
Sitting with sonic on your side with stitch and grinch in front. Absolute hell.
the grinch in lore has been saving you from drowning and trying to take care of his child
In naddpod lore Goku murders random people
Sitting in front of Stitch would be true misery.
I would maybe leave this plane and reschedule my flight
My one regret is putting Chip and Dale instead of Jar Jar Binks. I think it was a recency bias thing where Caldwell mentioned them on Short Rest or something but Jar Jar is certainly more significant in NADDpod lore.
I do question how vastly the choice of "best seat" would've differed with Jar Jar over Chip & Dale
They definitely used to say that on airplanes.
"Yo Scott do you see that guy in A5? With the Grinch costume on?" "I don't know man, hell that could be The Grinch himself."
Anyone else keep hearing Astarion when Caldwell Does the voice of Austin Powers?
Pre-listening, I think Seat 1 is the best. Funky Kong within NADDPod lore would be a nightmare, but within DK lore he’s just a chill guy.
Post-listen, knowing they’re using NADDPod lore - I’m switching to seat 3 or 4. Austin Powers and Ron Burgundy may be a little annoying but they aren’t totally awful (I’m a man so I think they would not grossly hit on me)
I definitely think 3 is the best seat. You will just drink and look out the window. Ron doesn’t strike me as a long conversationalist, like he might tell you about how much he loves doing the news but that’s probably it.
Yeah but imagine he busts out his flute and insists you listen to him play?
Ron is definitely trying to smoke on the plane.
I have an issue with his this was deliberated. The assumption was that Crash Bandicoot wanted to beat you up based off one Surprise Round scenario. That is fine if we're saying that's NADDPOD canon. However, Goku also appeared in a Surprise Round scenario, where he murdered someone and flew away leaving you to take the blame. So I would think I'm NADDPOD canon he is a bad guy. But he is still portrayed as heroic in these hypotheticals
Oh i see what you mean. But didn’t in the Surprise Round scenario the guy was like kind of harassing Goku? He was getting all up in his face right? Because if so then i feel like Goku wouldn’t really do anything unless he got annoyed by anyone on the flight. (Which actually when i think of it is kind of likely)
Seat 6 really is best of the worst. It sucks, but fundamentally it's just, middle seat, loudass boomer to one side, quiet seething on the other, overly energetic child kicking you in the back. I've had that flight, it barely even ruined my day
For a future mixed bag will y’all do a movie review of Mazes & Monsters?!
I just watched that two weeks ago. Absolutely wild movie
Is it actually the Grinch you're sitting next to? Hell, it could be some guy with a really really realistic Grinch costume
I’ve only heard the first 9 minutes. I’ll leave my seat now and then check in again after I’ve heard the episode if I change my mind. Obvious choice for me is 1. It’s bulkhead which sucks. But Gazoo is so short I can fully recline. I always wear noise cancelling headphones. I always bring my eye cover. If I’m sitting next to a sticky ass Libertarian — also a stinky ape — then I can prep a mask with my wife’s perfume. Take two fat edibles so I pass out for the duration. Row 1 means I get carry on priority and can leave the plane faster.
I can't believe they overlooked the fact the Goku was secretly lapped up with Vegeta
I'm just thinking about the smells on that plane. Both Kongs, Grinch, Stitch, Crash, Chip/Dale and Sonic are furry creatures that probably get a stank. Gazoo and Sebulba are aliens who may have very different hygiene standards. Goku and Fred are just big guys who are often sweaty, and Fat Bastard is just nasty. And then if Ron is wearing Sex Panther, there are no safe seats for your nose.
the stank on this plane is crazy, that’s all i could think about this whole time
7 just because it gives me the most protection from the coked out bandicoot
10 is by the bathroom ruined by most of the most terrible people on this plane. 10 is no recline. 10 is the harassed by everyone waiting for the lav. 10 is getting shivved by Crash every time the lights are dimmed in the cabin. 10 is the seat you paid to upgrade to, but really you got pranked by delta
Okay here me out on seat 9; yeah Fat Bastard is brutal BUT if I could get some sort of eating contest going between Goku, Fat Bastard and myself I could probably eat myself into a good coma. Plus while we are doing the contest me and Goku are hitting it off and for like 10 minutes on every hour Goku is getting up to stretch so I can get a break from Fat Bastard
The old ad is “you are now free to move about the country.” Caldwell is right, “you are now free to move about the cabin” is something that they said/say on airplanes. I can’t believe this is my first time commenting on here and it’s about airlines slogans.
Based solely on how I pick seats, it’s 2. I will have to deal with the consequences.
I would love to see this done again with characters from Naddpod
Sitting next to Boomer Winnie the Pooh is an identical experience to a typical flight.
Absolutely feasting on Murph's deep hatred for Gazoo
Goku flying is just so crazy... Why is he on a plane?
Bro can literally instantly teleport 🤣
Theres also an argument to be made that because both Fred and Gazoo are on the plane they will be occupied by eachother
Objectively based on Naddpod lore Funky Kong would 100% be on the no fly list
Chip and Dale are the air marshals and have a gun
If you're a woman in this situation, are you the only one on this flight? Who takes up the seats you don't choose?
I feel like no matter which seat you choose this flight isn't making it to it's destination
Fred will have naked dirty feet, 6 is such a nightmare seat
Murph is turning into an Anchorman stan
Average coach in Britain tbf.
these mixed bags are crazy. y’all never disappoint. if this was the first thing i ever heard from naddpod i’d think you guys were batshit insane 💯🙂↕️🤝
#1 EASY. not sure who the handsome guy with the bandana is
Without listening it would be between 4, 8, and 10.
Ok murph's points on 3 have risen it to join my initial picks. Glad 10 was best.
Haven’t listened yet but I’m personally picking either one, five or seven. As long as I got a window seat, I’ll be in my own world no matter who is next to me.
In what world would somebody from Gen X listen to music without headphones? I'm sitting next to Ron Burgandy, though. I also love scotch.
A few of my gen X coworkers listen to music without headphones, which is baffling to me- it’s not uncommon here and I wish they’d stop lol
woah it's that picture from the subreddit.
oh it got tweeted at them. Cool
I love when you guys play DND but honestly would listen to a podcast with just this kinda shit ngl.
The real question is do I recognize these characters or are they all unknown strangers before I sit down
If I had seen Brent Spiner sat next to Emily, I would've truly had a heart attack. Starstruck by both to the extent I would die!
Like Murph in Hot Date, I’m a solid 4.
8 is the objective least bad spot
I think seat 2 might be awesome. There's the possibility *you* can't see/don't know gazoo is there. Although if you think it's empty and try to slide to the window seat to see the view...that might be an issue
The only one I could see as possibly bearable is maybe Seat 5 next to Crash and behind Austin.
Well if the Great Gazoo can’t be seen by women and I am one if those that makes seat 2 not that bad! Hell I could take his window seat not like I’ll know he’s there.
I’m getting on a ten hour flight in two days this is PERFECT
literally seeing this immediately after landing from a 6 hour flight. can’t wait to listen!
Thanks so much for dedicating a whole Mixed Bag to my post! I'm 10 minutes in and it's already hilarious!
Guys, this fucking rips. 100% sick, absolutely rad.
Without listening to it yet my initial thoughts would be spots 4 or 5 would the most reasonable if you’re a man (Austin probably wouldn’t try to make advances on you). 3 could also be manageable but that depends on if we’re sticking to Flintstones lore and that alien guy only bothers the seat next to him and the others around don’t know he’s even there because then again assuming you’re a male Ron Burgundy can be relatively ignored. The other side has too many surrounding annoyances. It could be cool to sit next to Goku, but then you got FB on the other side, sure Pooh is okay, but you got the Star Wars slave owner behind you and depending on the level of rehabilitation Stitch has had he could be fine or a total nightmare. For spot 4 this again depends on your gender and the specific movie version of Austin Powers. Is he fresh out the ice cube Shaggadelic Austin or the been in the present for a good while Austin? For spot 5 is Crash just being chill eating Wumpa Fruits and the worst thing is getting the juices everywhere or is he going full hog with the spinning all over, breaking things with his gold AkuAku mask, and yelling “Whoa!” every time a flight attendant tries to get him to settle down? Edit: Post listen a lot of my take is wrong. I took source lore over Pod lore which changes how Crash, Stitch and even Goku are seen. I also just got the seat direction wrong which would obviously change who I thought was ahead or behind me. Like Xatlern said in a comment in Pod lore you did see Goku kill someone and could be a source of tension which would make sitting across the aisle from him stressful. But sitting behind him you could at least keep a subtle eye on him. Only down side to seat 10 is it is right by the bathrooms so you will be hearing and smelling all of FB’s dumps before, during and after he does them.
One thing that I was thinking when I originally saw this that no one mentioned: if this is all from podcast lore, then isn't Goku the one who you witnessed kill someone in an alley outside a party and then leave? I don't know if I want to be on a plane with that guy. That being said, I do think I'd have to go with 10 as best seat with 8 close behind. As a woman I'd rather get beat up by crash bandicoot once than have to deal with an increasingly drunk Ron Burgundy for a full 8 hours. Plus it's an aisle seat near the bathroom 🫡
Oh god that changes everything
Nah, Caldwell is right. That phrase has been parodied in many a media I think
it would be hilarious to run this as an adventure where each player rolls a d10 to find out who they're sitting next to
I was going to take seat 8 for sure until I remembered this was boomer poo. So I'll take 10, Chip and Dale seem cool and Surprise Round Goku only kills if you start shit with him. The worst he's gonna do is be noisy while he eats. Alternatively you take seat 5, make the deal with crash and then after he beats the shit out of you you get the hour rewind to protect you through the rest of the flight.
Need the photo 😂
You’re all assuming you’ll even be able to see Kazoo.
I love it when the Mixed Bag is just a totally unhinged concept. That’s how we got Surprise Round
Life is beautiful and complete, thank you NADDPOD
I have no idea what this is going to be and in here for it
I will set next to Funky.
After listening to the episode, still 1 and also 4
Truthfully I’m not even sure this makes it off the runway before one of these characters puts a hole it the cabin wall. My bets on stitch.
Submitting this video for a pro funky argument: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=68JQtxTzjqc
I would love to sit next to Chippendale and cranky Kong and listen to cranky Kong yell at Chippendale the entire flight
I mean the obvious best is seat 4. Austin is a huge laugh and a gentleman. also Isle seat is the best seat in the house. You also would still be able to drink and talk with Ron Burgundy. Plus Goku's right next to you on the other side of the aisle
Seat 3 is a dream come true
omg what happy labor day weekend to the hardest-laboring podcasters in the game, we appreciate you so!!
I haven't listened yet, but I'm sitting next to ron burgundy drinking scotch.
Agreed!
This looks absolutely wild, can't wait
My god
