Alas, it’s the Questie Bestie’s final episode of the season, so you KNOW they get into it. The Besties welcome the wildly talented Mythic Quest DP, Mike Berlucchi, who dishes the tea on what it was like to shoot the visually amazing “Everlight.” The crew celebrates how incredible it was to land Sir Anthony Hopkins as the narrator, FIREBALLLLLL, and what it was like stepping out of the box with costume design and set decoration. Gotta give props to props! They also discuss Danny Pudi’s performance of Brad in “Everlight” (#EmmyForPudi). Well guys and girls (women), that’s all for this season. Thanks for listening and...HUZZAH!!

OK, besties, are you ready to laugh your pants off? This week the crew brings on Questie Bestie Guestie, hysterical comedian, and Mythic Quest actress Naomi Ekperigin (CAROL!) to the show to talk about the special “Quarantine” episode. Naomi tells the gang how her experience during the Pandemmy™ taught her she could absolutely survive a zombie apocalypse and how shooting this episode in her own home was a challenge, thanks to the zoo she bought! The Besties chime in with their own horror stories of having to be both actors and cinematographers with limited resources, and how the response from the audience was awesome. Who can’t relate to the struggle of working from home?! They up and changed math and Carol can’t! You’re gonna love this one. Don’t wait! Press play and join your Besties!

Ahhhh it’s the MQ season finale, besties! But fear not, we have a couple of BONUS STAND ALONE episodes in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!

In this episode, Besties discuss the incredible “Blood Ocean,” written by Megan Ganz and Rob McElhenney. They talk about how the show gets meta and devours itself and laugh about how chaotic the shooting process was. They also share some of their favorite memories about shooting it: David’s ice cream cart (“dingalingaling!”), Brad’s Duck Tales affiliation and Poppy’s Blues Brothers inspired glasses removal. Best of all, the Questie Besties reveal their QB HOT TIP line that YOU can call right now! Just dial (323) 303-3440 and tell the Besties how you’re feeling about the show. They love hearing you as much as you love hearing them!

This episode has so many levels, and the Questie Besties were here for all of it. They dive deep into Pootie Shoe being Ian’s son, THAT moment between Dana and Rachel in the arcade, the obsession David has for cookies, and Brad and Jo bonding over predator/prey videos. They also discuss the black market of video games, Charlotte’s incredible performance in this episode, and Rob’s talented and camera-trained dog Simon! Soooo whatcha waitin’ for? Pop in those pods and press play!

Buckle up, besties, cause this one’s a doozy! Questie Besties welcomes former Onion writer and current Mythic Quest writer, John Howell Harris to the show! They discuss all the re-writes John had to endure in the first season, Ashly’s bout with pink eye, and all the awkward dancing done by Charlotte… err, Poppy. They also celebrate Wyld_D at her peak, dish the tea on that infamous coughing scene, and Brad’s gross obsession with Poppy’s hair. Ew! Who is the Masked Man? You gotta listen to find out!

OMG, the Questie Besties are halfway through the season! To celebrate, they’ve invited Questie Bestie Guestie and Mythic Quest writer and actor, Humphrey Ker, to the mic. Humphrey plays “Tall Paul” and he talks about the introduction of his character, what it’s like intimidating the boss (and everyone else) with his height, plus how he wasn’t sure his back muscles could endure lifting Rob up repeatedly. They also dig into the birth of Wyld_D, the hilarious and evolving dynamic between Poppy and David, and the many British insults that Humphrey sprinkles throughout the show. So get to listening, you toilets!

In this episode, the Besties (and David) welcome the spectacularly intelligent and delightful Mythic Quest writer Katie McElhenney to the show! Katie wrote one of the fan-favorite episodes, “Dark Quiet Death,” and she shares so many amazing details about how it came to be! The Besties and their Guestie dig into the awesome 90s production design, how the characters contained multitudes (new fave pod word!), and Katie talks about her experience collaborating with her brother and director of the episode, Rob McElhenney. The Besties loved this recap because it was a break from seeing themselves on screen and as Imani says, they “truly just got to be fans.” You don’t want to miss this one!

Hiiiiii from your Questie Besties! This week, the gang welcomes the amazingly kind and incredibly talented Danny Pudi! Danny’s so nice, even David can’t resist complimenting him. The girls (women) get Danny to dish on what it’s like playing a villain, why he’s afraid of squirrels, and what “bro-ing out” with David actually looks like. They also dive into Dana’s true love of video games and highlight some phenomenal organizations like Black Girls Code (http://blackgirlscode.com) which is a non-profit that focuses on technology education for African American girls.
