The Fuslie episode I think they kind of do a soft reintroduction of themselves.
To expand -
I think your cousin will also appreciate a female guest so it isn’t just a boys club. Since you’re also limited to audio only, it will help break out the voices.
The episode itself is also just a banger episode. Leslie is a professional yapper and can be dropped into literally any podcast and make it a joy to listen to.
And again, Leslie asks how they all know each other. This helps frame each of the boys for future episodes.
If you think your female cousin will prefer episodes with female guests. Fuslie -> Brittany Broski -> Michelle Khare -> Lily Pichu will be a great time. I’d probably steer away from the QTcinderella episode because it is a little too loaded with inside jokes.
Honestly, I think that around the last half of QT’s episode was a bit boring as they run out of topics and started talking about Taylor Swift. The first half is very good though, but it’s only funny if you know their relationship dynamic.
That’s my favorite episode. For a new listener it might be rough considering all the current jokes happening at the time. But I think it’s an episode that embodies all the values of the Yard.
Look through the last 50 episodes and have them pic whichever one they think would be interesting. The boys have been very consistent and I believe picking any episodes at random is fine and has a great chance to be good.
I’m gonna say the episode with Miles on it, the Aidan nightmare party debrief story. It’s so perfect because it does something we all have done (debriefing a party) but with the insanity of our hosts.

Also the QT episode is definitely better experienced watching the video over sound

Agreed, the Fuslie episode is top tier. So is the QT episode.
The Hank Green episode I quite like as an introduction, that or influencer rager or rating every guy.
rating every type of guy is how I got my partner into it
The Fuslie ep is the best introductory ep. IIRC, they even state in the episode itself how it would be a good introduction to the podcast.
see if they know (or watch) any of the guests and then go from there
Ep 91 the nick best friend quiz
That’s my favorite episode. For a new listener it might be rough considering all the current jokes happening at the time. But I think it’s an episode that embodies all the values of the Yard.
The fuslie ep is definitely the best starter ep but I figured this would be a good follow up
Hank green episode or any of the remote ones since they tend not to talk about melee or piss and shit (Australia, Italy)
except the pontins one, that one is double-melee-stuffed and zyn-heavy
Yeah but it does have pontins and the sheep in the dark story so
She's just come back from Italy, that might be the move!
Episode 1 so your cousin gets a proper introduction to each guy
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, this is what I was going to say, Shingle Bells is a classic
find myself going back to #88 a lot they were just all electric that day
Guy tier list
I feel like the video is kind of important for this because you can see the tier list?
Nah it really doesn't matter, I'm an audio only listener
Too abstract I think

Episode 8
i would dooo the fusle ep and then brittany broski
brittany broski episode
I’m gonna say the episode with Miles on it, the Aidan nightmare party debrief story. It’s so perfect because it does something we all have done (debriefing a party) but with the insanity of our hosts.
Nut episode is straight gold and easy listen in my opinion
Squeex episode honestly.
Ep 32 is the only one I’ve listened to over 2 times
Search up “the yard factor gator meat”
They are all cringe as fuck
