Happy New Year everyone!
It's 2025!
That's right, a great, brand new year for everyone just chilling after the
holiday season of 2024 after the whole year of 2024 it is finally but yeah I
don't want to lie anymore yeah we got it we got to come clean guys it feels like
we have to keep up the energy because people are excited it is a new year but
not for us. At the time of recording this it is the year 2024 still okay and I know when you're
listening it's 2025. So y'all are excited and we wanted to be excited with y'all.
No but Patreon listening they're still in 2024 as well because this comes out
early on Patreon. Oh. So well I Patreon are like, like kind of like, like, you know, they're the, they're the secret knights of the roundtable.
Right. So they don't care. Yeah. You know, they're, they're, they're in prestigious spot. They don't care about the goings on of the, of the peasantry.
Right, right. So the, the rest of you, though, it's not actually 2025 for us.
You're listening to it from the future,
so that's kinda weird when you think about it.
It's like a whole time travel scenario.
We're speaking to you from the past,
but it's 2025 right now.
Granted, that's how all of these podcasts work.
That's how they have to work.
I've never really thought of it unless we do it live.
It is, I guess it is how they all work.
I've never really thought about it though from it live. It is I guess it is how they all work I've never really thought about it though from like a
time travel perspective, you know, it's like
Work, we're coming at you from the past, but you're experiencing us in the present
but you're
This is being experienced in the future for us right now. Did you take did you did you take your meds? No, I
Told you this made me feel like a zombie.
Just go to the... No, stop taking them. I don't need to take them. They made me feel dull.
I'm talking about the powder. The salt. Sugar. Whatever. Cloak wheel.
I mean, I can go real quick. I came in the office Luke said he brought a bag full of it
If you know it's not sackful if you need a little more medication. It was a rutsack full of cocaine
of
Powdered
Colombian sugar okay. I want to go get some coffee and I'll put some sugar in it two teaspoons
Did imagine putting two whole teaspoons of cocaine
into your coffee.
Just, ah.
God.
That would kill you, 100% right?
Two teaspoons of cocaine.
Hasn't yet.
Yeah, not yet.
I mean, that's how I,
how do you think I'm so cheerful in the morning?
I don't know.
I'm not a morning person.
I don't know how much cocaine it takes to kill a, a man. Probably two teaspoons I would say would probably send
you to the hospital if not kill you. Red Link should paint themselves white and then try
it and like figure it out. Like how much coke does it take to go to the hospital? On Good
Mythical Morning they're just like doing a live stream or they're just doing lines. Just
line after line. Now Link, I'm gonna do this big long one right here. All right, let's see
She's like the longest fucking they're like making them in like silly shapes and stuff and
All right. Now that's five lines in a row. I'm starting to feel something
they bring V sauce in to explain how it's like not possible to
Snort a three-dimensional shape because we can't have it structure
due to the material that the cocaine is based off of.
So it unfortunately has to be just a 2D line
or some 2D shape.
I like instead of Vsauce, they get a,
just like a schizophrenic guy that looks like Vsauce.
And he's just in the back of the room like,
the three dimensional structure,
when it goes into your nose,
technically it's in the third dimension,
but you can't snort a can't and it can't even be
represented in our dimension because of gravity because of the material makeup
that exists you're seeing a representation of what a three
dimensional object would look like um but but it's a it's a god we're good
this is gonna be good this is this is the best episode we've ever fucking
recorded dude Rhett smashes the table like fucking I've been like just like
smash card to an ambulance just like rushing and and you know
He's got blood blowing out of his nose all over the stretcher
And then a then a tiny chord plays and all sudden they come up from like their gurneys
And it turns out the ambulance is actually this set and it's a one-take music video
They gotta hire us man. Come on like that was that not genius? A 12 hour coke riddled stream to fuel uh, I guess uh, notoriety for this new music video
they're dropping.
Rhett and Link, hit us up because I know you guys bought Smosh.
If you're looking for more uh, comedic duos of funny silly white boys, SuperMega's right
here.
Okay? They're probably looking for less white boys.
Everyone is nowadays.
Just feels like I'm just getting
cast in the dust.
Yeah, just cast aside, like no one cares.
And I was hoping Rhett and Link,
being from North Carolina,
they would understand our plight.
Yeah, but it's North Carolina.
They did a video, I remember freaking out when I was a wee young and watching Rhett and Link because they did a video
Where they were in South Carolina?
And I was like, holy shit Charleston. No, no, they were it was like Greenville Dillon, South Carolina Dillon, South Carolina
Just right across the border have not been there. I haven't either but we should go
I would love to go to Dillon. We should go fishing in Dillon, South Carolina. I don't know if there's any
bodies of water. It's... They have, they have, uh, they, there's a lot of like manmade ponds
and stuff people like get on their properties and shit. South Carolina does have a lot of
those lakes, those like just... Lake Murray is a manmade lake. Dude, they, they, back in
the day, they were just fucking making lakes left and right in South Carolina. There are like Lake Jocassee, Lake Murray,
Lake Moultrie, right?
Yeah, well, it's like we love the coast.
Let's bring the coast to us.
All right, boys, start digging.
Well, actually, I'm pretty sure they dug those lakes
with a certain type of labor that...
Who?
Prove it.
You weren't there.
You weren't there.
What, do you have a time machine?
Didn't think so.
Sorry.
You're gonna believe the pictures that were taken back in the day?
What, from the media?
How the fuck do you build a lake?
Like you dig a big hole.
Like you just have to, like, there's a starting point where it's like you wake up that morning
and it's like, alright, today's the day.
Let's, alright, dig the first scoop and then-
This is going to be a lake.
Like a, well, not like Camp Green then. This is going to be a lake. Yeah.
Like, well, not like Camp Green Lake.
Camp Green Lake was a natural lake.
Right, and also the, you know,
they were just digging holes, unfortunately.
But you could probably connect the holes
and make it into a lake.
Yeah, but I mean, I still connect with the themes
of the movie, holes is what we're talking about.
Yeah, yeah.
Just because you brought it up.
That's just like, you take a bad boy,
you make him dig five feet.
The shirt and the shovel will give him a beat.
You know, like a beaten.
Yeah, I mean it builds character.
I honest, I feel like I would have loved
to be at Camp Green Lake digging those holes.
You know, it's supposed to be a punishment, but for me...
Cold showers?
That probably feels great after being out in the fucking...
But the nights are cold?
That's true.
That's true.
Because they're in a desert.
Yeah.
They're in a desert biome.
That's what most people fail to consider.
They think of the desert, it's so hot, but the second the sun goes down, it's freezing You know they're taking showers in the morning like wee hours in the morning when it's cold
Yeah, and the water has been cold sitting all night. Yeah, you know what? That's a good point. I didn't think about that
You know what we should do in South Carolina speaking of man-made lakes back flips. I can't do them anymore
Just my back South Carolina, maybe it Maybe the gravity's a little different from California?
You know, it is slightly different.
Depending on the rotation of, you know, the Earth, I guess.
I guess the time of year with the axis tilt.
No, gravity's not always the same exact.
It is different, you know.
Because when you're on the East Coast
and the Earth's axis is slightly tilted, the is slightly different so I think you might be able
to pull off a backflip there. I mean unless you find some some strange way to
defy gravity like gravity I don't I think that it I think those ways exist I
mean look at look at the UFOs we've been seeing I just think that we don't I think
we do know how we just they're not telling us. In Ang Lee's, I believe he's who directed this.
He's usually an auteur, right?
So he was diagnosed too, like Jacksepticeye?
No, like an artist.
Oh!
But like in the Incredible Hulk movie
with Eric Bana, or Bana, I think it's Bana though, right?
When he turns into the Hulk he jumps like long rights where does he turn into it in midair?
No, he's jumping. He's just jumping as the whole oh, but like it's long bounds long leaps
And it's like it feels like he is defying gravity and which leads me to think
Because he has green skin it's
because he's been exposed to gamma rays gamma ray radiation which 100% I think
could make your like gravitational your relationship with gravity altered I mean
if we're going to take Ang Lee's Hulk movie with any consideration then yes. Well in the
science community Ang Lee's Hulk is considered like the the the cream of the
crop. They watch it every year at the National Science Convention. They
literally bring all the big scientists in. Like all the like all their
microscopes are out. Yeah. They got their pens, they're writing in notebooks, I'm sure. They've got bubbling beakers.
Just walking around, you know, lime green glowing, maybe some purple ones.
Green and purple gloop, bubbling and big goggles.
They're wearing like circular goggles, like that character from Trailer Park Boys.
Oh, fuck, Bubbles?
Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys. That show is... Which I've never seen. I've never seen an episode of Trailer Park Boys. Oh, fuck, Bubbles? Bubbles, Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys.
That show is, I-
Which I've never seen.
I've never seen an episode of Trailer Park Boys.
I think you'd like it.
I watched, my parents got really into it
when I was in high school, so I watched it with them.
See, I like My Name is James Earl Jones.
Dude, My Name is James Earl Jones is a fantastic show,
unironically.
I did watch that in high school as well.
Really good show. Like, making a list, having to like, unironically. I did watch that in high school as well. Really good show. Like making a list, having to like apologize to everyone.
It's a good concept and also it's just really funny. But back to the
lakes. I think you and I should vlog a little trip down to drug and alcohol
abuse lake in South Carolina. Drug and alcohol abuse lake? Is it located near
you? It's in the
middle of the state. Oh. I'm serious Luke, put up a picture of it, like on a map. It's
actually a real lake. Drug and alcohol abuse lake. You know the history of why it's named
that? I'm not quite sure. But it is called that. When we do SuperMegaDust South Carolina,
I know it's what people really have been waiting for.
It was either that or going back to Japan to do more vlogs,
so we decided South Carolina would be more interesting.
I'd love to go back to Japan.
I went back and I rewatched some of the Japan vlogs.
Yeah.
And it makes me go, imagine this, but in the news,
because we just recently, I guess not recently
when this is out, but I guess in December,
we didn't bring vlogs back.
It's not like they left, but we did our first kind of,
you know, like with this podcast,
we wanted to in some way reinvent it.
It was a super mega show, we got this whole set made,
and I feel like with the
gaming content that took the form of like live streams and stuff, not to say that we
won't do pre-recorded stuff in the future if we feel like it, but I feel like this works
in that same way.
Well, I just, we kind of had this idea for a while. Because people really like the vlogs.
And they're like, do more vlogs, do more vlogs.
And I think you and I would always get in our heads about
we have to have some grand idea for a vlog.
Because we were not in our early 20s anymore.
The first vlogs we filmed, were you 20 or 19?
You were 20, right?
Yeah, no, I had just turned 20 when we started
SuperMega like two months prior.
So yeah, we were in our early 20s.
And I do feel like we can't bring that,
we can still have fun, and I think what,
that vlog that we put together and uploaded
that kind of proved it to me too
while looking through the footage of like,
oh, you guys, Matt got these new cameras
that give the vlogs a really, really good vibe.
Like very, changes the vlogs in a way where I'm like,
oh, this could be like, it's a very nice,
comforting series to.
Yeah, it's super like, cozy feeling, I think.
And I, you know, I love retro shit to a cheesy degree.
And when I was thinking about, you know, vlogs,
I'm thinking like, if we're going out and vlogging
and we got the fucking typical vlogger cameras with the microphone on top and shit, I don't
know, that looks really cringe.
It's like, hey guys, but I don't know.
Streamers do it all the time though.
You see all these streamers going out in public with their streaming backpacks, they're going
to high end clothing stores, trying out some new drip. It's LA. Yeah, I mean ultimately I I guess I
We're probably a little too self-conscious about it, but we also come from South Carolina where I feel like
Making videos in South Carolina was a different experience than making videos. He had eyes on you when you were filming
It was it was always like what is that person doing? Yeah, we're out here, it's more normal.
But I don't know, the camcorder setups we got,
a lot of people also have been curious
about the specifics of that.
There's Sony, CCD.
I can go grab them real quick, they're right outside.
Yeah, go grab one.
But for those who are curious about the setup
and want to rep.
We showed them off before, should I go grab one?
Yeah, go grab one!
It's a Sony CCD TRV87
That model of camcorder, there's like a bunch of different models
Where it's just different numbers at the end
I chose the 87 because I like it
The other one's in the other room
But there's this guy online named dev builds
and he made the like 3d printed all of the
Oh, I love it. I love it. But yeah, I got this little thing called an immersion RC powerplay and that box is what
version RC power play and that box is what digitizes the footage. So these cables, these are custom cords that Dev Builds made.
You can get them on his website and it just basically bypasses the tape.
So instead of recording to a tape, it just sends it straight to that box, records on
a micro SD.
You really have like no quality loss and then to record you got to click the little thing
right here. You have to click the little thing right here
You have to click this I don't know if it's recording but oh no, I'm just
Sure, dude, it's up to you, man
Damn am I looking pretty? Yeah. Yeah
What I love about it is that and I kept if do you look so cool? I kept a lot of it in to
With that vlog. There's a lot of when we record with this there is a lot of that like almost
it's that like
Digital wonkiness that comes with these yeah, it'll go to the blue screen do like a quick like yeah
And I and I keep a lot of that in just because it like works as a transition
It works great as a transition. Also, it's cool. Love the fucking vibe of this dude
It's like when I like I don't know why, I was kind of like apprehensive
because I wasn't like confident about the footage
that was gotten, like I was like,
can this become a vlog?
We were thinking maybe we throw it on Patreon or something.
That was the idea.
But then just like literally I think
within the first five minutes I like turned you
and I got excited.
And I was like, dude this is like, this is it. it because for me I was like how are we gonna go about doing vlogs like
we used to and like feel comfortable doing so and this like we take these out
in public it's almost like we're on vacation you know yeah and like I feel
like if you see a dude in public with a camcorder setup like this it's it's more
so you're kind of like intrigued it's's like oh, that's cool. Yeah
but yeah, if you guys
Want to do your own build like this? It's there's a lot of videos online about it I ain't gonna gate keep it Sony CCD TRV 87 immersion RC power playbox and
Dev builds so lots of cool stuff lots of cool stuff. I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna pop the, there you go. Um,
and dude, when I was filming the black Friday tree vlog is out by now.
And that's what we used these to film that as well. We just haven't,
we haven't filmed it yet. Again, time travel. Yeah. Shit. You know,
it's like we have not filmed the Christmas tree vlog yet, but
everything's ready for us to, you guys have we have not filmed the Christmas tree vlog yet, but. Everything's ready for us to.
You guys have already seen it.
By the way, after this podcast,
let's go through the Craigslist stuff.
Sorry, we're selling ourselves on Craigslist
for we need some extra money.
It's just what it is.
And don't judge ad reads.

Dell's breach exposed 3.9 million customer records and Ticketmaster also faced a massive
breach compromising over 560
million records. And most alarming of all, this past summer national public data reported a breach
potentially affecting every single American. 2.9 billion records used for background checks were
stolen and released to the public for free. If this all sounds pretty scary, it's because it is.
You've never been more vulnerable in the digital world than you are right now.
But before I keep spouting dark statistics and grim news stories, I'll share some positive
news.

I really do think like legitimately like people would put these on repeat specifically this like
VHS series and I feel like when we have enough, we should almost separate them in their own playlist so people can enjoy that aspect because like, I picture like people, there's, even
though it's shot in like modern day because we're using this, it has a very nostalgic
vibe to it. And I just know that if we take it to like fucking an amusement park, like
Universal, Knott's Berry Farm, whatever, just like capturing those images in that quality
or going to Santa Monica Beach and capturing the beach
in this quality.
We'll just.
Seagulls and waves.
It just, I swear to God, it is a form of like ASMR
for people and I know that because it's like that
for me and you.
So it's gotta be like that for others.
So there is like a, it's not just like fun.
I mean, it is, we have fun making it and they're like I love doing like
Editing them together making them all like weird and wonky, but there is this also like weird fun
ASMR aspect where it's like oh these are
these are I
Don't know how to explain other than like comfortable. Yeah, that's exactly what I was gonna say comfortable like
cozy and I don't know, I feel like you can film
like bits of our day to day lives and work days
on one of these and when you string it together in editing,
it feels like 10 times more entertaining
when it's filmed like this instead of like
if we're just walking around the office
with our iPhones.
Like what are you doing Ryan?
Like you know, I can't really explain it.
But I would like to basically just do you know,
vlog series where my plan is I would like to just kind of
throughout the work weeks just kind of just film here
and there like while we're editing,
just you know walk in the room,
kind of show off what we're doing.
I guess the day to day in between vlogs.
But I would love to do like,
oh what are they, just field trip vlogs.
Yeah.
Where we go to the zoo.
Going out somewhere?
We go to, yeah, we just go out somewhere.
Skid Row?
I mean, we could, if you wanted to.
I mean, we could send you down there
and we could do like a news broadcast situation, you know, set it up to where...
Sleepover in Skid Row? Like I go and I spend the night in Skid Row by myself?
You have one of those live streaming backpacks with all the flashing lights?
Yeah, it has the circle light and selfie stick and...
Hey guys! What's up? I'm live! And I'm gonna be giving out $10,000!
I'm gonna be giving out $10,000. I'm gonna be giving out 100 musketeer bars
One of three musketeers just going up to homeless people and just being like come on you start throwing everyone gets one
That's what blue face blue face
got on top of his
Suv maybe was a G wagon
I don't remember drove drove through Skid Row
in the middle of the night and was just throwing out money,
throwing out $100 bills, I think.
Fun times.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know if you ever had the experience,
but I think it was middle school?
I got to go in one of those money machines.
And I got to, you know,
where like, for like a pep rally or something,
they'll bring out like, one of those clear tubes
where it's just, it makes all the money.
Where the dollars are flying around.
Yeah, because the air's blowing up.
Yeah.
And I, dude, I remember getting like,
I think it was like, it was near 15 bucks from it
and I was like, dude, I did one of those once at a party, at like a, I don't was like, it was near 15 bucks from it and I was like, dude.
I did one of those once at a party,
at like a, I don't remember where,
I think it was at some like friend's birthday party
growing up at some, you know, like entertainment place
and they had one of those and I think I probably got
like four or five bucks, it's hard.
Well, I, the trick and I didn't do this unfortunately,
I was like, fuck, I could have gotten more.
Cover yourself in honey. No, it's like people will, people will like, do this unfortunately I was like fuck I could have gotten more cover yourself
and honey no it's like people will people like stand like this and as the
money's going up just like trap it on the oh like hoard it and try to just get
it the stick there you know I saw that right after doing mine and I was like
you couldn't do it again no I'm probably I probably overestimated my it was probably more like ten to twelve dollars. What if we got one of those for the office?
Like what if we installed one of those money to money machine tubes every
Well, we can get one that draws down. So whenever a guest comes on they can be it's time for the money machine
That's not what I mean. It's like it becomes a competition and there's a leaderboard
No, regardless if we do the money machine thing or not
I think it would be sick to do some sort of thing for guests on the podcast that creates like a leader. Yes, dude
Because we we had Tucker install a spotlight up here, which we haven't used yet
but basically it's like a spotlight that is mounted to the ceiling that we can change the shape of it and like the
spotlight that is mounted to the ceiling that we can change the shape of it and like the the the focus of it and then back here we were talking about maybe
getting some kind of like drop down or pull down curtain so where the super
mega logo and the glass panel is we can pull a curtain down and have a spotlight
and make the guests do a performance or force them to force every guest to play
miss pac-man I think I play a song. They have to perform a,
every single guest has to perform a song.
Well how do we rate that and make a leaderboard off of it?
True, because it's subjective.
Exactly.
I do really like the idea of having
some kind of leaderboard,
because on Super Mega Cast we had the Hennessy bottle.
We made every guest take a sip of the Hennessy.
And it could be a live leaderboard
that you can always check up on.
Yeah, on the website or something. Even though you'd probably just watch the episode to see what you know
We could put it on the website so people can check 24-7 that you know just see where the leaderboards at just
If they're curious curious honestly we should start brainstorming ideas because you know money tube
Also for people that have no clue what the fuck we're talking about with the money tube
It's a big it's like a it's like a plastic
Tube or a little glass see-through tube where the floor has
Like a bunch of fans blowing up really really hard makes and there's money
There's just dollar bills you can't start grabbing until they like they're in the air. Yeah, they're in the air
So basically they turn it on and there's like maybe fifty one dollar bills and
there's flying around and you're trying to grab them out of the air and you have
a time limit like 30 probably more like 15 20 seconds yeah some shit like that
so it would be so imagine just lowers down put the guest in okay okay Tucker
we want a money tube huh what? What? Tucker, we're
gonna need you to actually remove the like the ceiling is gonna need to be
cut out right there and... But it's gonna block the sun. No, we want it to like
come down. What if this whole wall rotated? Like a secret bookshelf?
Well Matt, you know all we have to do for the money tube is not even get a
glass thing, just get like a see-through, almost like shower curtain,
cylindrical shower curtain, get a wiggle.
Yeah, dude, no, no, they 100% make those
like little portable shower stations.
Just get one of those that's see-through.
I don't know if they make see-through ones because.
They have, I mean.
It's America, baby.
That's true.
And then basically just have them in it
and then we can just get like a leaf blower, right?
And just put the leaf blower up to it.
Have like a hole for the leaf blower.
Maybe like a shitty like plastic
3D printed lock mechanism for it.
Right, and then maybe like 3D print something
that can like divert it in different directions.
Honestly, and what like, we can literally just bring it in when it's time.
You know, you just you just pop it up and then when we're done with it, just push it
over there.
Every it's every guest who comes on it's a competition and if they win, they get a copy
of our book.
Should we should we always just give a guest a copy of our book at the end of an episode?
Yes, like we have them on again.
It's like, have another copy of our book at the end of an episode, even if we have them on again, just like, have another copy of our book.
We signed this one.
I was thinking, instead of dollar bills,
we could make like.
Dollar dollar bills, yo.
We could make our own coupons,
and it could just be like merch coupons,
so they can just win like,
hey dude, you got a small super mega t-shirt.
And Rocco can be like, oh, cool.
You know, and he can cash in if he wants
But it expires and it's only valid
It's valid like months from now for a certain week
Um, I do or we could do because we're super we like really lean into the thing and it's like it's it's a game show
It's like two pillars come up
And it's it's called red Box or Blue Box and they have
to choose whether they want the Red Box or the Blue Box and they have to keep whatever's
in there.
I really like that idea.
I think for when we have guests on this year in 2025, I think that that is a fantastic
idea to have A, a leaderboard of some sort and be the the little box game where
there's something in each box and we could get like a really good gift maybe
you know what I'm thinking for the money money machine like Gordy on Blu-ray
Gordy on Blu-ray would be awesome like the criterion collection Gordy you know
what would just be really annoying for the the money thing is like if it actually is a lot of money
but it's a
It's in like a foreign currency. So it's like hundred dollar bills, but they're like
Argentinian pesos so they're like well, I have this money now
But it's like I have to go to a foreign currency conversion and when I do that
I'm really only gonna get like ten bucks afterwards. Oh, dude. You remember coin star?
I'm really only gonna get like ten bucks afterwards. Oh, dude. You remember coin star? Oh, dude, the coin star was fucking going to the coin star was me. It was at the by low
What was it for you was it? Was it a by low specific thing?
It was also a Harris teeter because I remember going to Harris teeter. Okay, that's a grocery store in South Carolina and I
Remember I was I was staying with my friend and his dad goes boys
I remember I was staying with my friend and his dad goes, boys, can you go down to the coin store for me?
And he had buckets of coins.
I remember having, like this was at a time,
like at an age where I had a piggy bank.
I'm sure you were the same age too.
Yeah.
Did you ever have a piggy bank?
Not like the type you have to break,
but I did have like, yes, a coin collecting device.
I had a old Winnie the Pooh piggy bank where the cork was like in the unders where his butt was or some shit
Like that I could probably find that exact one hold up. I think I've done this before the
Coin star is such an incredible invention
You pour the coins in and it converts it into into dollars for you
And I will say dude the it is an incredibly loud machine.
I'm thinking for 2025 for the office,
what we need is the dollar bill tube and a coin star maybe.
What if we got a coin star for the office?
That can't be that expensive, right?
I mean, no, I mean, we'd, I mean,
that would be-
We have to hopefully get guests to like,
hopefully guests would bring some sort of coin tell guests to bring their arm
Their own coins be like hey if you have a you know spare coins bring them and you can use our coin star machine and
You know you might get a little something out of it. I'm trying to find this piggy bank for some reason. My mind is...
You know what was always so cool to me though?
I went to the Coinstar with my friend.
I think I just found it.
We emptied these buckets and sometimes within the coins,
I guess there would be like a foreign coin
that somehow ended up in there
and it would spit it back out and I'm like,
whoa dude, look at this.
There are still Coinstar machines.
Dude, there's one nearby.
It's a Bitcoin ATM.
I'm seeing if you can buy a-
But do we even, do we have coins anymore?
I have a couple quarters in my car
that I had to get the other night
because I needed to put air in my tires.
And I'll tell you man, you, man, it's frustrating.
You have to go inside the gas station.
I'm like, can I get some quarters?
Here's a dollar.
It's just pointless.
It's stupid.
And I had to put coins in the machine
and it was embarrassing.
Maybe we should start keeping,
the thing is I just pay for everything with a card,
essentially, now. I use cash rarely. like the thing is I don't I just pay for everything with a card yeah essentially
now I don't use cash I use cash like rarely it's good to keep cash on you
just in case do cash is so 2000 late like I'm not like getting change as much
as I as I once was I don't really use cash ever I mean sometimes I will like
if I'm going to like a food truck or something. But even still at like food trucks and stuff,
usually they have Square or Apple Pay, yeah.
Apple Pay changed the game for me.
When I discovered it was a thing.
Changed the game for Super Mega.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
I was just like buying things left and right with my phone.
There's people listening that have not
caught on to the Apple Pay wave.
Guys, you can just add your debit or credit cards to your iPhone, double click
the side button, it scans your face, and then you just hold your phone up to...
Like you would your card if your card has that little... most cards have them now.
And it just beep! The little chip, the wireless tap. It's fucking awesome.
I love Apple Pay and I love the Coinstar as well.
I'm on the Coinstar website actually about-
Wait, really?
They put a picture of you on the Coinstar website?
No, no, no, no, no.
I thought it was like-
I wish.
One of our most loyal customers.
Wait, no, but look at this.
Coinstar for retail, we take care of coins
so you could take care of business
and they do have this guy on the page.
How hard do you think it would be
to get them to replace this guy with me? If we could reach out via email maybe and say like hey this guy's
kind of ugly I think if you put a picture of me on the page you know you're
gonna get more people getting the what if this is an epitism situation and now
you just ruthlessly attacked the looks of like one of the CEO like the son of
the CEO or the son of the CEO
Or the grandson of the CEO because coin stars been around for generations. Do you think it would be?
It never hurts to like try you know
Look here. Here's a whole fucking coin star
Retail like form that you can fill Once you're trying to cut your dick off,
what if I put it in the Coinstar machine? No, I'm just saying it doesn't hurt unless,
you know, it doesn't hurt unless you try.
I see, I see, I see.
Like, I was confused at first.
I was imagining.
I showed up rather late to that one, to be honest.
I was imagining a guy putting his dick
in a Coinstar machine.
You could probably, no, you could definitely
put your dick in a Coinstar machine. Doot, do no you could definitely put your dick in a Coinstar machine.
Do do do do do do do do.
They're loud dude, they're deafening.
Contact us.
Do you mind if I send an email real quick?
Hey, you know start out like that, like be friendly.
Here, yeah here it is.
Media inquiries. Hey homies.
Should I hit up business and sales inquiries
or media inquiries?
New media inquiries. Public relations at coinstar.com. Yeah. All right. I'm gonna I'm gonna shoot him a little
We're gonna go to commercial break
As we are contractually obligated by our overlords
To do this that's gonna shoot an email to the higher-ups over at Coinstar to see if we can get
this gentleman his well-deserved spotlight. Yeah, and when we're back on Coinstar website.
Yeah, we'll show you that email as soon as we're back. Take commercial break and Matt has something to share with y'all.
Yes I reached out to Coinstar public media inquiries. I said, hello my friend slash business
partner Ryan McGee and I were looking at the Coinstar website and we were
wondering if we could be lucky enough to have the opportunity to be featured
somewhere on the website. Included as our shared headshot, we'd love to have our
pictures featured somewhere on the site anywhere at all. We think it could help
the Coinstar brand and grow your business by attracting more
clientele.
Oh my God, I made another typo.
I just realized.
Please let us know your earliest convenience.
Thank you so much.
And I attached our headshot, but oh my God.
So I realized that I had made a typo after I sent it.
I said Coinstar at one point and I sent another email to
public relations and I said hello again it appears I made a typo in my last
email and the fourth sentence I accidentally wrote coimstar instead of
coimstar we truly hope that this won't diminish our chances of being featured
on the coimstar website thank you but now reading it out loud I realized I
used the wrong tense in the same sentence I said help the coimstar brand
and grow your business by attracted more clientele
Now you've truly fucked up. Do you think I fucked up? Yes. They're gonna look at that
What should I send another email by a by a goo goo ga ga baby or something that doesn't understand the English language
Should I send another just walk is going on? No, I think right now let it sit and then but I didn't address that typo
I only addressed one typo.
And then later go, hey guys, sorry.
Our office was broken into
and apparently you guys were sent an email.
But Matt and Ryan would still love to work with y'all.
Yes, I like that, something like that.
Like criminals broke into our office
and sent these emails while we while you know
We were at home with our families and you know you you you you wrote an email and you got to
Probably show it up for the people right like you put up a I just I just I
Made me a little jealous and I wanted to throw up and a picture of my own maybe
Sure, here's here. Here's me
Here's me stunting in Nikkiy Infinity, the dress up game.
Okay.
It's a good outfit.
I can't see it.
Because it's not. Well if you could, your mouth would be a gape.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Okay, you can put it away. I'm proud of that one though. Yeah? Yeah. You
know, we've been talking about a little idea of our own and I don't want to get too into
it but would you guys be interested in it? The days with Sprite? I don't want to give
that idea up for free. Oh, okay. Okay. Make sure you cut that out because that is a genuinely
such a good idea. Because if you're thirsty people right after using the yeah, you just get up
Yeah, I mean I do that already with just when I'm thirsty for water
You know I'll be doing my ass and then I'll just get up and just back from you know
The old grade school days of the water fountain, you know that that that that's still like in me. So it's all chick
I'm a big nostalgia guy. So I so I like sipping from the bidet
because it reminds me of the water fountain.
No harm, no foul.
What if we got a water fountain for the office?
You know?
We could.
Because there's a lot of things that are in
quote unquote corporate buildings or schools or offices
that I think people overlook that could be in their own
homes or offices.
Like for example, we could put a paper towel machine
on the wall or a hand dryer.
But a water.
I like the paper towel, like the metal paper towel.
Yeah, we could get one of those.
Or we could get a water fountain and put it on the wall
or a urinal for the bathroom.
People don't think about this.
I would love a urinal.
You know, cause a urinal like.
But I do love sitting down to pee.
I would, I don't think a urinal would really have much,
you know, good, good here.
Yeah.
I think we all, I think we're all, we all sit down to pee.
We're all.
Maybe not, maybe not Luke. No, we're all sit, we're all all sit down to pee. Maybe not Luke.
No, we're all sit pissers.
Okay.
We piss sitting down.
Right?
Hold on, I'm gonna do some investigative journalism.
Luke does.
I'm gonna go get Luke's answer real quick.
Okay, I'll keep the masses entertained.
Yeah, so I do sit down to pee, and it's pretty nice.
Ryan got me on that train and I know that
You know this I'm sure there's plenty of people listening right now people in the comments going
You sit down to pee your little your little pansy your little fruity fairy and you know those things might be true
But how does it feel knowing that when I'm urinating I I'm getting to relax, I'm getting to rest my weary bones,
I don't have to stand there,
and I don't even have to touch my dick.
That's the thing.
If I stand to pee, I have to touch my dick,
and then I've got dick germs all over my hands.
But sitting to pee, I just have to drop my slacks,
sit down, I don't have to touch my Johnson at all.
I just let the pee flow out and then you know
I kind of I kind of do a little bit of this to shake the shake any remaining drops that might be
around the meatus
And then once once you know, it's all good stand up pull my pants up. I didn't touch the toilet
I didn't touch my penis
Well, I touched the toilet to flush but
usually I actually flush with the you know back of my hand. I'll just be like, you know some of this so I don't
Get any germs on my on my on myself from the toilet
So yeah anyone that calls me a Nancy boy
For sitting down to pee, don't even think
about it because yeah.
You're back.
Perfect timing.
Did you?
Yeah, I got the report.
Should we roll the clip?
Play the audio.
Hey, Luke.
What's up?
When you pee, are you a stander or a sitter?
I think I'll just let you answer the question. Are you a stander a sitter when you pee? I'm a stander, of course
Okay. Okay. There you have
He's a stander
Maybe give that reaction for after the clip. Oh my god. Yeah
Yeah, I didn't know that I knew it up here because that's well
He did he did also say and I didn't capture it so on on recording unfortunately
He so it's not it's it's it's on the record in my head just not on tape, right?
But he did say not standing up to pee is a waste of our male privilege
So maybe that's something to think on
waste of our male privilege.
Yeah.
You know, I try to do everything I can to lessen my male privilege on this earth, you
know?
I don't man spread, you know?
I make sure I keep my legs fucking closed.
In the morning you get up and you look down and you spit on your own dick in disgust.
I go, ugh.
Disgusting, disgusting dick.
There's someone out there.
You say to yourself, disgusting dick.
There's people out there that are so disgusted
by their own penis that when they look at it
they get filled with dread.
They just go, ugh.
Me when I
can't when when I don't trim my my bush okay yeah
fist pound it for that one huh holy shit dude right maybe a little gunshot
sound effect there like you know like the old times Luke I didn't even see it
fly audio listeners I just I just looked an army man at Matthew there was an army man between us
On top of the computer and Ryan flicked it in that dude. That's dangerous
You like power of a flick like you have a very strong flick and that's sharp plastic
you know those are not high quality army men, you know the
Those have some rough edges on them from China. So it's like you could have really hurt me that could have stuck into you
There was it there was a universe where you did that my head exploded all over the room all over you and I'm dead
Oh, and they had to play into a house scream from Malcolm in the middle. Thank God. It's coming back. Although. Oh my god
Yeah, we got talk about that. It scares me though that okay
So yes, Malcolm in the middle has been announced that it's back through a video
shared by other cast members,
but the only ones that appeared in the video
were Frankie Muniz, Brian Cranston, and-
Jane Kaczmarek.
Jane Kaczmarek?
Kaz-Morak?
Kaz-Morak.
Kaz-Morak, I'm not sure.
Beautiful cast.
Like, I would say that, I mean, this is, Malcolm in the middle is just up there at least for you and I as like
Definitely in like the top one of the top sit sitcoms of all time. I think one of the best
Yeah shows ever made in my hump opinion. It's really good. I recently I think it was yeah, it was in 2024
I went and rewatched it all for the first time since I had watched it on TV back when I was younger
it's a fucking great episode and like
the the thing is where people talk about like oh, you know, there's a season where it kind of falls off a little bit and
Usually with shows when that happens, you know, the seasons are god-awful and it's like oh, yeah
This is the shitty season with Malcolm though the quote-unquote shitty season to me
or the what's seen as the, this is the shitty season. With Malcolm though, the quote unquote shitty season to me,
or what's seen as the quote unquote shitty season, is not that bad.
Everything is still pretty good.
It's just that you can see that certain careers
are trying to get off, they're just at different spots
in their lives because they are growing up
while making the show.
I don't think it's a bad season.
It just doesn't have the same charm as the others as much.
But then I feel like this doesn't happen with many shows.
They pulled it back.
Like the next season was really good.
One of my favorites, season six.
So I think that it's an incredible show
and there have been whispers for a while of doing a
Malcolm in the Middle reboot because Bryan Cranston and Frankie Muniz have both publicly
said for a while they'd love to.
And they've come back as a cast except for the actor who played Dewey.
Yeah, they've met up and done reunions.
Dewey has always been,
Eric Percelevin, he's always been absent from this stuff and people have speculated as to why.
They'll have a picture of him.
Yeah.
Like he died.
They'll be holding a picture of him up
in the group photo.
But he just really doesn't want any part.
So it would be interesting if Disney could claw their hands
into being like look
we'll throw you a few like a hundred thousand for a cameo I'm is well Disney's
not gonna throw a hundred thousand for a Dewey cameo I'm curious though as to as
to why he seems to I mean at the end of the day it's his personal life his
business if he doesn't want anything to do with the he doesn't owe fans or
people anything because at the end of the day what he was he was a child actor and what he was producing is a product
Right and and I'm sure that maybe there's some great product though
Yeah, but I'm sure there could be some you know some sour taste in his mouth about almost kind of not having a childhood because he was
a
Actor so maybe it just left a bad taste in his mouth.
He doesn't want anything to do with it,
but it's his business.
However, I would love to see Dewey back.
Of course.
But Reese wasn't in the video, Justin Burfield,
but you said he shared it, right?
He shared, I saw that he shared it on Instagram apparently.
Okay, I'm pretty sure that means he's gonna be back in it.
But he's not, the only three signed on right now,
and I'm guessing that's just to get the ball rolling maybe?
I don't know, but the only three signed on are
the Quiddessential trio.
It just wouldn't make sense to me,
like if I were Justin Burfield, the actor that plays Reese,
now what he does, I think he's a real estate agent.
I think that's what he does nowadays.
And he has a kid and everything and just living his life.
If they were rebooting this show,
it would just kind of, especially only for four episodes,
to me as Justin Burfield, it would be crazy not to be in it.
Yeah, I think he definitely, he's,
I think he will.
To me he's shown a lot of, like he's shown interest
in the past of, like he has fond memories
of often in the middle. I would love, dude. I I think Reese will show up imagine if we got them both on the
show yeah but together because they don't know released what what it's
gonna be about so it is going to send her on Malcolm and the parents and
Malcolm's daughter yes I wonder who's gonna play the daughter it's gonna be
like Hal and Lois are having a 40th anniversary celebration and they're trying to get Malcolm
and his daughter to come to it I think. That's the thing. It's four episodes. Imagine if
we got Frankie Muniz and Justin Burfield on Super Mega Show. That would be beautiful.
Together. Brian Cranston of Godzilla. Hey, he was great in that by the way. He was. Of
Red Tails? Was he? Oh he was in Red Tails. of red tails was he oh he was in red tails George Lucas's red
tails that was George Lucas it was George Lucas I saw in theaters mainly because Bryan Cranston
was in it not because of George Lucas no okay but you know when shows you about black pilots
though predominant like it's a story about black that's why I saw it um not because Walter White
this was that was like his first thing since Breaking Bad. Yeah, yeah. And I was excited. You just want to
see him. You want to see more of him. I'm like, I love him. But I learned a lot about
the African American pilots of World War II. Good. As George Lucas wanted and intended.
Mm-hmm. I made it a little woke, but George Lucas like George wocus, huh? Amen, brother. So basically, uh
You know actors whenever a new shows coming out or a new season. They have to do press runs
They have to go on podcasts. They have to go on shows
Who knows? Yeah, that'd be so cool. It would be I mean we have
We did Matt NASCAR at one point.
That could be some, you know.
Oh yeah, because he, Frankie Munoz.
He did say yes, Frankie Munoz did agree
to be on the podcast at one point.
Yes, like two years ago,
I reached out to Frankie Munoz on Instagram,
and I was like, hey, would you ever be interested
in coming on this podcast?
Frankie Munoz responded, and he said, sure, totally.
And I was like losing my shit.
I called him, dude, except he lives in like Arizona.
So it would be a whole thing of either,
I'd love to do it in person, that's the thing.
I mean, we could always do over like Discord or Zoom,
but it's like having Frankie Munoz in the studio
would be so cool.
So I would, it's really about scheduling,
because he is a busy guy, and I'm sure he's about to be
10 times busier.
Oh yeah.
But that would be cool if that could pan out in the future.
I'll probably hit him back up again at some point.
Who knows?
Maybe not now, but.
Hit up the Munaz himself.
When we're ready, when the guest area is ready to roll.
And not filled with a mannequin junk.
Face down on the couch.
Tucker is working on building the guest set right now.
Well not at this very moment.
Yeah he is, look over, he's got a hammer.
He's like, doon, doon.
Yeah, but it should hopefully, it would be cool by the time this episode drops
It's I don't know about that, but we do have good plans for guests on the show
The year of guests and we'd love to hear what guests you guys want to see in the comments
Please please please list your your dream guests ones that maybe we've had before that you'd like to see back ones that we've never had
We just want to see what all of y'all are interested,
who y'all would be interested in us commingling with.
Also, I'm curious what y'all's thoughts are,
because we have this cool set,
and sometimes, there are a lot of people that have said
in the past they would be down to come on the show,
but because we're not in the same city, it never happens.
Do people really care if we do some episodes over Discord?
Like with the setup that we did when I had COVID?
I don't think people would care,
especially if it's a person that is away.
We could do more of those too.
Me personally, I definitely do wanna,
the first guest episode I wanna show off the guest.
The guest area.
I wanna show it off in a...
We say show it off, it's gonna be this, we're gonna have lights and ding ding ding. Golden throne for the guest area. I want to show it off in a... We say show it off like it's gonna be this like we're gonna have like lights and like Golden Throne. It's gonna
like be lights reminiscent of the like a game at a state fair. No but it's just
we need to get two other cameras and we needed to kind of talk about what's
gonna go in the bag just Just I don't know.
Tucker's gotta finish building it but it's it's it's uh, it's in the works according to Tucker.
Tucker just the problem is he spent so much time fapping.
I know.
He's got an addiction.
And I say fapping because that's what he calls it.
Well it's the new year now when this is out, right?
November's done. He's gonna be fappin' until November 2025.
It's gonna be hard to really nail him down into,
he gets his best work done in November.
I know.
Because he's not focused on fappin'.
When he's not fappin', he's like, dude,
he's like a fuckin' savant, he's a genius.
Oh my god, yes.
The pure work ethic and talent within him
is just spilling out, but the rest of the year,
something else is spilling out.
But also, we gotta ask him if he can really stop fapping
around the office, because we'll be having a meeting
with him and he tries to hide it.
I mean, he had it with his hand in his pocket,
but it's clear that he's fapping.
And also it's weird that he calls it fapping,
that's from like 2012 4chan type.
Well I mean, fapping is a bit
but I mean that I think that that puts a little bit of a judgment on this week's
list that we have scrolling right now fappers anonymous it defeats the
anonymous it does I get it it does and we're sorry about that but we we kind of
ran out of lists so we had to throw this one out.
It's the only list that we had at the moment saved.
Correct.
If you look on screen, if you're watching,
these are all the Fappers.
They're scrolling by, every one of these.
Fappers Anonymous.
And in the other box that is a little prettier,
those are the um those are the
The the mega fappers. Yeah, they they
They fap even when soft which I don't know if you've ever pulled that off like a soft like a soft bean or a saw or a
soft
wiener yeah
Yeah, you ever ever call it a penis some. Have you ever pulled off a soft fap?
I'm sure there's definitely been a time where I have strained myself.
You're just like, come on!
Trying to just...
Trying to get the good old wonderful itch scratched.
I think I did once and I just felt so disgusted afterwards.
And just like...
You ever pull on your soft penis until you came
It's a good I have to I have to admit Matthew. It's a good final question to the podcast
Yeah, you guys have been waiting for the big question the
It's it's pretty crazy shit. Well, let's ask every guest we have
You ever masturbate while not erect?
And that could be an elect an erect clitoris as well. Sure, also Johnny Knoxville actually says this same thing
in one of the Jackass movies,
because he goes to the sperm donation clinic
and he busts in the thing without getting fully hard.
He's like, you can actually produce sperm
with a soft penis, you just gotta really go fast.
So fun fact for you guys,
but if you wanna join the list of FAPRers Anonymous, which will be anonymous starting next week,
we'll have the actual Patreon.
Sorry about this week, guys.
But you can go to our Patreon for five bucks a month.
You can get all years of content.
We got shows on there, exclusive shows, fun stuff,
and there's even, for every episode of Super Mega Show, there's an extra
sloppy sticky serving.
We sit here after the episode, talk for an extra 15 to 20 plus whatever minutes, however
the conversation closes.
Super Mini Show.
We also, did you mention Uncle Sleepover, where we talk over movies that we watch?
Yeah, we got exclusive shows like Uncle Sleepover and if you bump up a tier,
that's how you get your name on this list of Fappers
in every new episode
and you'll get stickers in the mail each month.
Like these.
Yeah, look at this or this rushed screenshot
that Luke grabbed from an email or something.
Yeah.
It's print screen and then copy and paste it into Photoshop
and you can censor with squiggles or something if you need to.
But thank you guys for the support. Thank you for listening.
To our patrons, we will see you in just a minute on Patreon, but to the rest of you
we'll see you next week, and I can't wait for 2025.
I hope he's already here, but not for us.
I'm excited for the whole year, for the rest of 2025.
We got a lot of ideas, a lot of a lot of a lot of passion in a new president. Bye.
Really?
He's really back. I don't know. He's just like he's like, I love how Tom Cruise handles
confrontation like the water gun fiasco. That's how he handles the interview to he goes, you're
a jerk. He's like, you know, I had to really, you stepped out of line.
I had to really back end, but it's all good.
Yeah. It's very, it's.
