THIS IS SORT OF A THING. ALSO, I WISH THERE WAS A WAY TO PROPERLY DENOTE GRIFFIN’S TONE BUT IT’S THE ONE THAT’S LIKE EXAGGERATED AND HIGHER PITCHED AND HE DRAWS WORDS OUT MORE.
JUSTIN: Hello and welcome to My Brother, My Brother and Me, an advice show for the modren era. I’m your oldest brother, Justin McElroy.
TRAVIS: I’m your middlest brother, Travis McElroy.
GRIFFIN: And I—well, boys, I am Daredevil.
JUSTIN: Wow, I have to say—this is unexpected news, Griffin.
GRIFFIN: Now, Justin, I must ask that you refer to me as my true name—which, as I’ve said, is Daredevil.
JUSTIN: [giggling] Sorry, of course—Daredevil.
GRIFFIN: Thank you. Now, I’ll take any questions you might have about my illicit nighttime deviling.
TRAVIS: How bad is the commute from Austin to New York?
GRIFFIN: That’s a great question, Travis, and I will tell you—it is killing me slowly. I do all my daily podcast and husband and father duties and then out I go to catch that plane to the big ol’ city that I protect every night with all my good, good superhero pals.
JUSTIN: Like who?
GRIFFIN: Like the—the Spider Child and…Metal Man and, of course, that muscular dreamboat we know as Thor.
TRAVIS: Is Thor as handsome in real life as he seems on the television and also on my desktop background?
GRIFFIN: Oh, handsomer, Travis. So handsome, in fact, that—in the spirit of full honesty—I have begun an affair with him of an exclusively sexual nature.
JUSTIN: Whoa. What does your wife think about that?
GRIFFIN: I’m here to tell my truth and not Rachel’s but, uh–[LOW LAUGHING] she likes it. She likes it a lot.
TRAVIS: Griffin–
GRIFFIN: [CLEARS THROAT LOUDLY]
TRAVIS: Oh, I apologize–Daredevil, can you tell us your origin story?
GRIFFIN: Well, one day I was walking down the street, happy as you please, when suddenly–well, Trav, I got bitten by el Diablo himself.
JUSTIN: Like Satan.
GRIFFIN: Yep, ornery old Lucifer nipped me good and now I have muscles and can do things with my body without it immediately breaking down. Also, I got an insatiable lust for justice and full leather bodysuits.
TRAVIS: One last question, Mr. Devil.
GRIFFIN: Absolutely.
TRAVIS: Where did he bite you?
GRIFFIN:…this interview is over. Let’s give some advice.
