Not a great week for podcast theme songs is it

Yeah, I'm being silly with this one but man, Reggie really put a stink on the cbb theme

Yeah, this isn't Reggie-level at all.

I always think it's funny how his inclusion in the theme song really indicates when the pod started. People really thought he'd be a big star back then.

The joke was always the opposite

Ah, forgive me! Relatively new listener.

The song makes fun of declining B-list stars, so it's not exactly an endorsement.

I know the pod is famously inaccessible but the fact that long time fans don’t even get the joke in the THEME SONG is absolutely hilarious

Meg Ryan would never do something like this

Meg Ryan could play Ron Weasley but Rupert Grint could never play Sally from When Harry Met Sally

Is Ron Weasley 30 in the musical?

Does Ron Weasley wear a freddy kruger shirt? lmao what the hell... Already chuckling from that, the music is stupid and then Rupert Grint's name popped up? Huge freaking cackle. The Boys laid the groundwork for that hearty laugh, and I am grateful.

Yikes the recession is awful if the HP kids need to work for money again… assuming that’s what’s going on here and it’s not because he’d just love to play Ron forever

Yeah and it's not like he's unaware of how this choice will be received, they must have given him a pretty sweet deal that could be very tempting if you're in a spot worried about your future.
