Typo. At least I think it is.


The podcast is well known for it's offbeat comedy style, focusing heavily on WordSaladHumor, SoBadItsGood comedy and NonSequitur. Think the podcast equivalent of a GagSeries, with even their D&D campaigns being much more comedy-driven than your average campaigns, being set on the planet [=EBaum=], and having characters with names such as Patrick Yoda and Blotoss Piss.

* CourtroomAntic: One episode has a bit where the boys pretend to be lawyers. Their first move is to simply claim that the trial is a boring waste of time before they segue into accusing the judge of keeping a SexSlave under his pew.

''Podcast About List'' (often shortened to simply "PAL" or Pod About List) is a SurrealHumor podcast featuring comedians Caleb Pitts [[https://twitter.com/Braingetter @braingetter]], Cameron Fetter [[https://twitter.com/nibiru_TRUTH @nibiru_TRUTH]], Patrick Doran [[https://twitter.com/lunch_enjoyer @lunch_enjoyer]], and sometimes a rotating cast of guests. During your average episode, the three read through strange and hilarious Top 10 lists from various deep corners of the internet, with a majority from the site ''[[https://www.thetoptens.com The Top Tens.]]'' Outside of that, they have Patreon-exclusive episodes where the three just discuss whatever's on their mind, with no top 10 lists, as well as an ongoing TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons campaign called ''Gun City'' [=DMed=] by their friend Pierce Campion.

* DreamWithinADream: Episode 201: The Cowboy Princes of Cannibalism has the boys pitching a romcom about a man with a murderous SplitPersonality. That movie turns out to actually be a game of VideoGame/TheSims, that’s in a movie being watched by Donald Trump, being dreamed by Hitler, who himself is being dreamed by the romcom’s protagonist ([[OrWasItADream or was he?]]). This all turns out to be a CouchGag on The Simpsons, but the Simpsons episode that follows it was actually all being dreamed by Homer. And the movie is called [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin “Homer’s Dream”]].

* BaldOfEvil: Caleb has been shaving his head clean for a few years now, and he's easily the most villainous on the show. He also has the honor of being the evilest member of Matt Watson's [=EpicSMP=] server.
* BigThinShortTrio: Patrick is big, Cameron is thin, and Caleb is short.



* CourtroomAntic: One episode has a bit where the boys pretend to be lawyers. Their first move is to simply claim that the trial is a boring waste of time before they segue into accusing the judge of keeping a SexSlave under his pew.

to:

* ComicTrio: Caleb is the schemer (coming up with most of the elaborate bits), Cameron is the fool (usually blindly agreeing with whatever Caleb says, to humorous effect), and Patrick is the OnlySaneMan (often playing a confused straight man to Caleb's antics, as well as the target of his abuse).
* CourtroomAntic: One episode has a bit where the boys pretend to be lawyers. Their first move is to simply claim that the trial is a boring waste of time before they segue into accusing the judge of keeping a SexSlave under his pew.



* OverlyLongGag: Commonly seen on the show. One example would be episode 153, ''The Belac Story'', which for nearly half it's runtime is the three talking about a fictional rapper named Belac who died when he was 8 and was the saddest rapper of all time.

* ClipShow: Episode 200 is a parody of clip shows, with the hosts flashing back to obviously-fake improvised “clips”. [[spoiler: This being PAL, it eventually ceases to follow even that format and just turns into a series of clips from famous movies, culminating in [[OverlyLongGag the entirety of episode 200 being played back at 2x speed]]. ]]
