One of the most awkward situations is when someone says something obviously hurtful in front of a group, and everyone but the person that says it recognizes it as hurtful, and then the person that said it never acknowledges it, and all of those people have an objective need to remain friendly to each other.

I sensed a weirdly tense vibe from the new episode where Dan seemed to be frustrated that the show was getting away from him (maybe not; that's kind of been/has become the expectation), you obviously had that unresolved thing with Dan, there was that kind of weird interaction/joke with Jeff about him liking whatever you need him to that didn't go over well (that I might be reading too much into), Rob seemed to try to get the reddit feedback out there and got snuffed, and it felt like D&D was somewhat impromptu/sprung upon Dan and everybody was into it except him.

It was a fun episode, but I felt a lingering miasma that was holding everybody back from genuinely having a good time. I might be crazy, though.

Wait, what? I thought the crowd loved that. It was part of the running joke where Spencer roasted Jeff all night, right?

And didn't Dan comment on it and Rob was all like "yeah, just like you went after Spencer last week" and Dan had a bit of an epiphany?

Fuck, I'm starting to think I'm the one reading too much into it. Did any of that happen or am I totally mis-remembering it?

Your memory is correct. Just listened last night. And Dan was like (re: Spencer roasting Jeff and what Rob said): "Yeah, see I should kick people in the ass more often".
