I laughed so much while watching the noodling episodes. I adore Matty Matheson, he is sunshine.

[u/Dru_Cortez]

I've rewatched that 2-parter multiple times. Brad and Matty together are brilliant!

[u/n1n2n3n4n5n6]

I love the noodling episodes! What are other hilarious It's Alive episodes?

[u/pandacatapus]

Fun fact: I decided to follow that noodling guy on IG and saw that his company was doing a giveaway so I entered it and I won! They sent me two beer coozies, and a sticker. I can’t remember what their company is called but they definitely used the Jesus fish in their logo. Felt pretty silly.

[u/rohm418]

This might be r/unpopularopinion but I can only take Matty in small doses. He gets annoying quite fast.

[u/[deleted]]

I have sensitive toes!

[u/Hopeful_Hypocrite19]

Ah yes...t'was the first time I saw anyone walk a fish lmaooo

[u/st-avasarala]

I watched this video 48 hours after my mom passed away. I was sitting in a hotel room, nursing a cheap bottle of whiskey, really in my feelings when my wife turned this on.

I remember laughing so hard I cried more. This video will always carry bittersweet memories for me (because of when I first watched it), but I can't thank Matty and Brad enough for "being there" when I needed that pick-me-up.

[u/crazyjake91]

If there was a show of just Brad, Matty, and the Skipper going noodling, I'd watch every episode.
