I tried to wayback their site and they excluded it, which isn't surprising since redletterweddings and jay's old blank screen cinema site are also excluded. So having nothing better going on I went mining through other old sites of theirs and their associates. Found some gems I don't think have been discussed here, besides the gilchrist stuff everyone knows.

There was some site they used to be linked with called screaming stoner that interviewed Mike, Rich, and Jay in 2004. Some interesting lore about their background and opinion on legalizing weed.

Am I the first one to have posted this, because this is amazing.

Fascinating stuff, thanks for sharing.

Is Jay being serious when he says he thought Sky Captain was "phenomenal" or was he being sarcastic? That really doesn't seem like a movie he'd like.

Jessi is still with Mike, and at RLM, as far as I've heard, she's just no longer on camera. Guys online creeped on her and all that.

Can't say I blame her. And credit where credit is due, rather than making into a dramatic shit show that was all about her, she kept her head down and went back to work.

With Mike's drunken behavior the last few years or so ago, everyone thought Jessi dumped him when she vanished. But this just in, Mike hams it up in front of the camera. :)

People are dumb though. Why anyone would attribute his alcoholism to anything other than being from Milwaukee is beyond me.

"No" if you want a real movie. "Yes" if you want a movie of inside jokes purely made for RLM fans like an extra long extended cut youtube gag.

I'm really baffled at why their actual filmmaking is so bad. (I could never force myself to watch anything they've done prior to their Youtube stuff).

I know they like schlock, but they should aim a little higher than acting and writing on par with a Channel Awesome movie. With how much they also criticize films, it's embarrassing when you see their stuff. I mean, it's fine if they don't take it seriously, but then why bother? Why waste the time and money? You gotta at least be able to put up or shut up if you're in the business of criticizing others in the same field, I say.

This is the best review of the film I found:

Name one other movie where the extras and all that other stuff are better than the actual product attached to it, by far.

But that's the thing, they have what most creators could only dream about: Actual chemistry. We love RLM and could watch them forever when they aren't acting. They don't need to throw money into anything, because it's never as good as them just being them.

And as the review states, it's only enjoyable if you already know who they are, because of that as well.

People online are notorious for taking everything 100% literal. I'm legit shocked people didn't really believe Rich died all those times too.

I did start to wonder if Jay was gay, since they joke about that all the time. Some of their jokes are in that borderline plausible area where it's easy to believe them. Is Rich actually diabetic? Is Jay gay? Is Josh fun to be around? The way these people pretend, it's hard to know.

I guess you haven't watched many Half in the Bags. Jay routinely voices his opinions on attractive females.

People keep saying this but there is 0 proof they're still together. Jacks' bizarre "behind the camera" comment about her is meaningless. And we know that Mike is the only one on his current home's title so that's something. I know it doesn't mean they're not together but it means he's likely not married. We have no idea why she disappeared and likely never will.

Was it ever known they lived together?

Whatever the case, obviously it's not important enough to share, and both of them are handling it fine.

Yes people found thier info on that social data mining MyLife site as sharing the same apartment address. Then Mike moved into his new house in 2016, source being an excel file that was available for download from the website of the city his house is in. It had all the city residents and their addresses listed. Mike was the only one listed as an owner for the property. Which doesn't mean she doesn't live there or they're not together, it just means he's the only owner, which would be strange if he had a wife. Just putting facts out there, no one knows anything beyond that.

Feel bad that it might be true. But Mike will find someone if he really wants to. Especially now.
 
Don't understand why people want to know more about them personally.

There's never been a time when knowing more about a celebrity's personal life has made me like them more.
 
An interesting topic about the quality of RLM's movies is raised.

Nah let's talk about whether or not Mike and Jessi live together. What's wrong with your braiiiiiins?
