He referenced mbmbam twice in Hamilton, even! Once in Cabinet Battle 2: “Should we honor our treaty, King Louis’ head? ‘Uh, do whatever you want, I’m super dead!’” And in We Know: “I don’t have to tell you anything at all! Unless... / Unless?”

I don't think so, but Justin did say how Lin was planning on surprising them with a special guest and right before the show, Justin saw him in the hallway and thought "... is that Matt Doyle?"

I love this... cause I sorta found Mbmbam working backward from some random YT suggestion... and listened to this when it came out... but only understood SOME of the references... and as I have been working through the podcast coming back and listening again and having the captain america I understood that reference all over again is a bunch of fun.

Had to come back to this after Lin's guest-pert segment on MBMBAM 516. What a man

This was my first ever live show and I just about lost my mind when Lin came out

Continues to be the best “We didn’t start the fire” parody and it’s not even fuckin close

this made me cry from nostalgia and happiness.

Lin managed to make one of the biggest book fandoms go absolutely feral with just a few words which is completely feasible for him honestly

Thank you so much for capturing this majestic moment in history.

this is my favorite parody of "you can't fight the homestuck"

can you imagine rolling up to a podcast live show n getting to see actual real life lmm

How are these people real? How do they exist? How are we this blessed to have them on our plane of existence?

this was maybe the highest point in my life

I need a lyrics video of this *yesterday*

I opened the most recent episode not knowing anything about this, and it was honestly the best few minutes of my life

lin: [playing intro] me: oh nice lin: j me:

this was the best hype up in the history of hype ups
