realmoviespodcast asked: You guys suck at updating this thing. What kind of hipsters are your??? Buck up and start acting like a self hating teenage girl and update this thing every 30 minutes. That is respect for women!

brentlarsonisallright asked: Word has it that rap phenom Danny Brown travels the country with Chex Mix made with butter sautéed with weed (marijuana). How about it?
caseyjacks asked: I'm too lazy to read through 37 pages of comments to see if anyone has informed Mike (Hi!) that Dreyer's ice cream is the same as Edy's (Best Foods vs Hellman's type deal). Thanks, bye!
tehneumanntor asked: I just realized something. I need to start living my life more like the Ben and Jerry's guys
fuckyeahimagination asked: I downloaded the episodes on my IPAD and I'm walking around the house hugging the IPAD listening to the Podcast. Mum recognised Ton's voice from Ed, she used to come home all the time and find me in front of the TV watching it. She was like: is Ed on Itunes?? I just love caring your voices around. This is great!

jonlabo asked: Are you going to update this site?
jbilovsky asked: I need to know, what happens when the cameras go off (I know they're not cameras)? Do you each say, "See you next week" then turn away from each other and walk away? Do you go out for beers afterward? Do you sit there and continue arguments from the podcast? Do you start planning for the following podcast? WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE CAMERAS GO OFF??? (I know they're not...
emilyviola asked: can i buy a poster or some other swag?
maeflower13 asked: Any chance of MATES t-shirts, that simply read "We are not veiwers"? Or "I know I'm not a veiwer."
coffeesnoblonde asked: *new listener* (Loving) catching up on your podcasts. I'm amidst some episodes during which the storm trooper is recurrently hitting the floor and/or ground. Sometimes you seem confused what he hits, so I want to help, if I can, with this: floor is inside, ground is outside. Think about it. Does this help?
phdineverything asked: I live in Amsterdam and was wondering if there's a chance a Dutch treat could end up on the podcast if I sent it your way.
noencores asked: Are you two aware that we are not actually viewers?
gusgusbrown asked: I just to find and follow @mikeandtom on twitter and twitter broke. I mean just broke. No twitter feed no profile. Nothing. I reloaded eight times. And every time I search @mikeandtom it does it again. Is this a deliberate act of destruction for a refusal by twitter to change its logo from a bird to a Snickers bar?

jonhannis asked: Thanks for the podcast! I'm throwing down the gauntlet. 100 Grand is better than Snickers MaTES! How about it? --with Love, Fat Guy.
whoabecca asked: Hi Mike and Tom! My best friend Jessica's birthday is coming up very soon, and MATES is one of the things we share and love so much together (gay). We listen to it when it's just the two of us on road trips. We talk about snacks we'd like to send you (but haven't yet) (lazy). We remind each other of our favorite parts of our favorite ones (Haagen-Dazs, and more recently,...
felipe asked: How can I stop being just a mere listener and for once be a viewer?
cloooonz asked: Is there a bizzaro universe where Chex Mix kept the white bagel chips and ditched the pretzels instead?
ber-et-deactivated20120509 asked: hey could you do twinkies or hostess cupcakes as one of the snacks?
hellohellophants asked: I'm sure you've been told this a zillion times already but, on the off chance you haven't, Kit Kats are originally from York, England. However, Hersheys make US Kit Kats not Nestle so they may well be unique, but they aren't the original! May I also suggest freezing the occasional Kit Kat on a hot summers day? Something to be enjoyed all over the world, wherever you are.
ediemoney asked: Is Janelli at all miffed that you're using his method of snacking to shoot to the top of the game?
rabegobbins-deactivated20130307 asked: Now obviously ratings are set in stone and obviously great thought and deliberation goes in to them, but I recently went back and reviewed Cold Pizza again, and I am still baffled at the 1 submitted by Mr. Cavanagh. I was wondering if any changes of heart occurred? Any regrets?
landmancomic asked: Can you answer this question?
youaremorespecialthanme asked: Are you guys in an NCAA pool? Who are you picking?
bonesandguerillium asked: I'm getting caught up on my MATES, and I just got to the guacamole episode. Tom, I too developed an avocado allergy after visiting New Zealand! It's official, New Zealand is out to get the avocado industry. We must put a stop to this! Also, beware of bananas and latex, the allergies are connected, and when you are allergic to one you are often allergic to the others. Harsh.... I know....
maxtm asked: We had just started getting addicted to Pirate's Booty when we first started listening/viewing - that's how we discovered you. Your episode on PB inspired us to order all of the flavors. Veggie - godawful - smells like the bottom of an aquarium. Chocolate - awful - smells like burnt hair, looks like poo. BBQ - bad - has distinct BBQ flavor, but looks disgusting. Sour Cream & Onion -...

seedsthenrootsthengrass asked: This is a question for Ian(Olaf). On one of the episodes, there was a cover of Rage Against the Machine's "Killing In the Name Of". Who was it? Please answer soon, my life is being threatened by a curious listener. Thanks.
mandalazone asked: hey guys, great show, always a blast to listen to you... quick question, on ep.30 (starburst) you played a song about midway through by a girl, something about money doesn't weigh a lot or something like that. i can not track this thing down, please give me some info on it or her. thanks!
maomatt-deactivated20111201 asked: I have to know the song you played on Ep 38 at the 23 minute mark. Shazam was being a douchebag and I couldn't figure out what it was. You two have amazing snack and music tastes. :D
benpalmer123 asked: Please ask Europe-Ian what the name of that song was on the most recent podcast. It was bluegrass-ey. I've been looking all over Google for it and I can't find it. It's been killing me.
youaremorespecialthanme asked: How long does MATES plan on running with this 'Will they or won't they?' plot line? Obviously the two of you have great sexual chemistry, but so many shows have been ruined by dragging on this sort of thing. I just hope that if you get together, you stay together, as the viewers have a lot invested in your potential relationship.
lynsielee-deactivated20120103-d asked: Would you like me to send your signed copy of the Hustler magazine I'll be in to the Mates Headquarters? How shall I make it out to you? xoxo
zuckermanbound asked: listening to the first episode, just getting on board. i am staring at my ipod. i'm a viewer.
nbloggz asked: YoCrunch is the candy of yogurt. They have m&m's, Oreos, Butterfingers, Crunch and other candy mix-in ones. It hardly counts as yogurt.
zachdaulton asked: The soft pretzel, caramel apple, S'more, and a funnel cake. I think you guys should review one of these. Not sure where the line is on snack and desert.
wayback85 asked: I find it a bit remiss that you two haven't dedicated an episode to the memory of the late Slim-Jim spokesman Randy Savage. I realize you're still bitter about the ticker-tape parade, but I would think such professionals as yourselves(especially those of you who are skilled enough to be touted as Yogi-laureates) would take a moment to recognize the memory of such a trailblazer.
breakingthisroutine asked: First off, you two fine gentleman are making history in the snack game. Years from now, historians will look back and see MATES as the even that started the snacking revolution that is upon. Now onto the question of the hour. Ever since the inception of MATES, I've been curious as to when exactly does a snack become a meal? Does finishing an entire bag of Lays still constitute a snack?
cumbubbles asked: whats the heating up lays thing?
universalstudiosgirl asked: One of y'all needs to be in the next Pirates of the Caribbean movie, I'd really be excited to see that
wayback85 asked: On the subject of chicken nuggets, I say 4 or less is a snack, and 6 or more is a meal. If you eat 5, fuck you. Nobody has ever eaten 5 chicken nuggets.
