Well, well, well.
We're back again and with better quality.
That's right.
It's me, Ryan, and my friend.
Matt Watson.
Ha-ha.
Episode 130, right?
130, baby.
We made it.
We did it.
We finally got to 130.
That was our goal from the beginning. If you go back to episode one, you'll see us excited and just completely energized at the thought of us going to podcast 1.30.
And so now that we finally reached that goal, it's time to tell you that, sorry, we are ending the Super MegaCast next year in February.
And we apologize. We just think that we have bigger and better things to do.
No, we can't. Last time we did this joke, we were like,
yeah, we're going to end it in episode 82.
And people are like, what?
People took it so seriously and thought we were actually ending it.
My mom thought we were ending it.
She took it really seriously.
The thing is, when we actually end the podcast,
because there will come a day when the podcast comes to a close.
No.
There will be a finale episode.
I told you, they're going to put our minds into a collective computer thing
and we'll continue the podcast for all eternity.
Isn't it depressing that there's two ways that this can go?
One, there's a last, there's like a finale episode.
And two, there's an unexpected death and there is no like the last episode.
Unless you went and just recorded one and be like, hey, Ryan's dead.
I lose my mind.
Anyways, Squarespace.
Hey, we signed a contract.
We got to get those ad reads in, baby.
The advertisers are like, no, you still have to finish the ad spaces we bought.
So I'm like, hey, guys.
Yeah, but Squarespace.
The good thing is we are back from our first tour.
Yeah.
And we had a really good time.
And we also just announced our two more tours, one in April and then one in May.
They're both on the East Coast.
I know a lot of people are mad that we seem to have skipped some of the mid-states in Texas.
Don't worry.
We'll eventually try to get to as many places as we can.
But if you want to buy tickets,
there are two packages, VIP
and then meet and greet. And regular tickets.
Yeah, and regular tickets, of course.
So go ahead
if you haven't already and
go purchase some tickets
to see your boys do some live stuff.
We're of course going to
keep some segments,
but we change up the show each time just because we want the tours to feel a little special.
Yeah, the first tour was in the Pacific Northwest.
That shit was fun, man.
I had a blast.
I think my favorite part,
other than doing the shows
and interacting with the audience and stuff like that,
was traveling.
Traveling, because I don't know about you, but I haven't traveled much within the states themselves um so this is
my first chance at getting to go to a multitude of other states and territories like in one year
like I think if I was going at the rate that I was, I would be 50 and have only visited five states.
Yeah, it was cool.
We got to go to Oregon, Washington, and I got to pop my Canadian cherry and go to Vancouver because I've never been to Canada.
And that was super fun.
I was about to say something, but I can't spoil future tours just in case it doesn't happen type of thing.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
But like...
It was in Canada.
We did a show with Finn Wolfhard where Ryan and Finn cooked me some poutine on stage.
Poutine in a jar.
It was disgusting.
An unwashed grocery store jar.
Oh, I didn't know it was unwashed.
Okay.
I mean, we washed it with the ingredients that we put in it.
Yeah, that's fine.
We washed it with the food that I ate.
I'm sure none of that sanitary shit links to you being sick right now.
Yeah, I started feeling sick on tour.
The tour blues.
And so did Jackson, because he was our merch guy on tour.
The touring crew was me, Ryan, Jackson, Tucker.
Not Jackson and Tucker. Jackson Tucker. Yeah. Who's not Tucker, by the way. We'll just call him Jackson. There's no other Jackson in our universe. on tour the touring crew was me ryan jackson tucker not jackson and tucker jackson tucker
yeah who's not talking we'll just call him jackson there's no other jackson in our universe that's
true yeah so jackson me jackson vernon and adam yeah y'all don't we we don't talk about adam too
much because we talked about him on the last podcast yeah people got a nice little taste
you know leaving the van unlocked we talked about We talked about him on the tour, especially after he left the van unlocked all night.
Listen to the last episode of the podcast if you're curious about what went on during tour.
It's a good episode.
The sound quality shit.
We recorded it on Ryan's iPhone and we were all drunk and it was 2 a.m. in an echoey room.
But it was fun.
I actually loved that episode.
We should do more kind of, not drunk.
We were fucking drunk that night.
Man, we were incredibly wasted.
I'm a lightweight, and I had a cider and then like four cocktails.
Yeah.
Because there was that one that was delicious.
It's that mango drink we had at Pok Pok.
The Mango Alexander.
Oh, my God, dude.
Pok Pok is a restaurant in Portland, Oregon.
It's like the best Thai food in America.
I haven't had better Thai food, but I haven't had Thai food in Thailand.
Yeah, true.
But in America, that's the best Thai food I've ever had.
It was incredible.
And afterwards, we went to a little bar owned by the same restaurant.
And they had these amazing cocktails.
And they also had like an alcoholic Vietnamese coffee.
I tried to sip of that.
I was like, fuck, I don't like coffee, but this is good.
Probably because I'm getting drunk.
Yeah.
Oh, their cider.
I think it was an in-house cider.
Yeah, that was amazing.
Which was super.
I forget what kind of cider.
It wasn't apple.
It was something else.
It was, I don't remember.
Was it peach?
It was good.
Whatever it was, it was good.
So if you ever find yourself in the Portland area,
we both highly recommend
Poc Poc and then
I know there's several Poc Pocs, but what's the bar
called? The Whiskey...
Was it the Whiskey
something? It's literally across the street.
It was super good. We each had like
six cocktails and then I also had
like a Pilsner, like their house Pilsner. We took sips of
each other's drinks. Yeah, we got wasted and then we were like fuck we got to do the podcast y'all had
y'all had beers during the podcast yeah i just had to i quit i was like i'm done i'm not i'm gonna
i'm not gonna drink anymore but i was still pretty uh on it because i uh i was still taking hits of
uh the weed pen yeah i uh jackson what sound. Does anything sound better?
Is it weed, marijuana? What sounds less
shitty? Reefer.
So I had my reefer pen.
Is there a way to talk
about marijuana where you don't sound like a high schooler?
Like, yeah, I was hitting the weed pen or
the pot pen. I don't know. It sucks because
when you talk about alcohol, it seems very
like, unless you're talking about getting weight. I don't know. Even when you're talking about being wasted, I don't know. Whenever I hear people talk talk about alcohol, it seems very like unless you're talking about getting weight.
I don't know. Even when you're talking about being wasted. I don't know.
Whenever I hear people talk about alcohol, it's like, oh, it's alcohol.
But whenever someone talks about weed, it spurs that thing
in my brain that's like, whoa, dude. Whoa!
It's weed? Whoa!
Say daddy lettuce or reefer
or God's green grass.
I thought it was the devil's lettuce. Did you just call it daddy's
lettuce? Well, it's legal now, so it's not the devil's lettuce
anymore, Ryan. That is true. Well, I mean it daddy's lettuce? Well, it's legal now, so it's not the devil's lettuce anymore, Ryan.
Well, I mean, in a lot of states, I was surprised.
In Canada, I went to, what do you call it?
Dispensary.
Dispensary.
And they have this rule, I don't know if it's just Vancouver and Canada in general, where they can't sell sugar-based marijuana edibles.
So you can't get brownies or cookies or anything they they would only sell pills like capsules you could get like the
plant and you can get it in liquid form and shit but they for some reason can't
sell sugar-based edibles what is that so like kids don't I don't know I don't
know what it is right to eat them up America is gonna be like McDonald's
soon is gonna be like you know they. America is going to be like, McDonald's soon is going to be like, you know, they're going
to cook it in like cannabis oil, their French fries and shit.
Gives a whole new meaning to McNuggets.
You know what I'm saying, dude?
Get nugs?
McNuggets.
Like nugs.
Yes, some nugs.
Anyways, we've talked.
Okay, so that wraps up our weed talk for this podcast.
But the tour was super fucking fun.
Got to meet a lot of you.
Had a shit ton of fun it was freezing cold I was dying
Jackson and Ryan loved it
I was like
I have no meat on my bones
you and your pretty boy bones can't really deal with the cold
they're not pretty boy bones they're just bones
ugly boy bones then
that's all they are
bones just bones
they have some skin on them well I got sick afterwards a little bit of skin Okay, sure. That's all they are, bones. Just bones.
They have some skin on them.
Well, I got sick afterwards.
A little bit.
A little bit of skin, yes.
Should I have a flashlight through them?
Like skin tight.
Yeah, you can see through my arms if you put a flashlight on one side. When you shine a flashlight on a wall, it's not like a hand, it's like just a skeleton.
But yeah, I'm on like the tail end of being sick.
And I woke up this morning, or actually I woke up about 30 minutes ago because I'm sick. How are you feeling? Are you energized? Well, actually, no, I'm on like the tail end of being sick. And I woke up this morning, or actually I woke up about 30 minutes ago because I'm sick.
How are you feeling?
Are you energized?
Well, actually, no, I'm not.
We're supposed to have hot pot tonight.
We are.
Harrison's cooking.
I am.
I'm good enough for that.
I'm getting my place clean.
I'm not going to clean my place for nothing anyway.
No, I'm on the tail end of sickness right now.
You know what I did while I was sick?
Jackson got sick too.
Harrison was out of town, so we closed all the blinds and curtains. It was
pitch black in my place. We spent the last
three days just watching
Twin Peaks and
ordering food and drinking hot toddies
which is bourbon,
lemon, cinnamon, and honey.
It's really good. It's very good for my
sickness and that's all we did the last three days.
It was very fun. I've never seen Twin Peaks.
I've heard great things
I love it it's my first time watching it
it is fantastic I can't
recommend it enough I just finished the first season
last night
I don't
I started watching this Netflix thing called
The Staircase which is like this
murder documentary made by the same people
who did Making a Murder which you know take
everything they do with a grain of salt because they leave a lot of shit out but anyways um and i just had
this moment where i was like man i don't want to there's so much shit about people getting killed
and just like all this like awful stuff that i've been watching i'm like okay i'm gonna take a break
i'm just gonna watch pirates of the caribbean at world's end and let me tell you i wish i fell down
a staircase after watching that one um yeah
i i remember that's the second time i've ever seen that movie i saw that one in theaters the
first time i saw it was for my birthday and i fell asleep halfway through so i think that's back when
i was 14 it came out like it's a yeah we were young it's pretty old old. Is At World's End really a decade old?
Yeah, baby.
No fucking way.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, the first two still hold up pretty well.
The first one's still the best.
The second one, Bill Nye as Davy Jones, is always a treat to watch.
Yeah.
Why did... Wait, which one is...
Is At World's End number three or four?
Yeah, that's three.
Three?
And then there's Stranger Tides, and then there's...
The horse one, where they drag a house through the city.
Ten horses drag a house.
So there's five.
And then they're rebooting it without Johnny Depp or something.
Wait, they are?
I think so, yeah.
Fuck.
Well, yeah, we should have a Pirates of the Caribbean night.
That'd be super fun.
It's a fun movie.
I like Pirates of the Caribbean.
I'm not going to lie.
I can't
pretend i don't like it most of them i haven't seen the newest one i'd say like they're not like
cinematic masterpieces they're fun though but they're as fun as like the old brendan frazier
mummy movies yeah you know i mean they're that type of movie you're always gonna have fun watching
a pirates of the caribbean movie the pacing is super good it's fluid in the first one everything
leads into itself it It's wonderful.
It's a wonderful experience just because it flows very nicely.
But there was, I'm trying to think.
There was, I went to go see Aurora last night with Brent.
And I actually, Brent pointed him out.
I saw Aaron Paul.
Yeah, you texted me and you were like, dude.
I know.
This is so surreal.
Aaron Paul is right next to me.
Dude, whether he knows it or not, and like, I kind of get an understanding of when fans
come up to us, I guess.
Because when I saw him, I'm like, this, like, my mom watched Breaking Bad.
Like, Daniel and I watched Breaking Bad.
You watched Breaking Bad.
There's a lot of people in my life, like, whether it be family or friends, that have been connected through, like, their love watch Breaking Bad. You watch Breaking Bad. There's a lot of people in my life, whether it be family or friends, that have been connected through their love for Breaking Bad.
You and I are still watching Better Call Saul.
And we're excited for the movie coming out.
I had a dream they canceled it last night.
The movie or the Better Call Saul?
Better Call Saul.
Better not.
I'm glad that was a dream.
They better finish that shit.
If they don't, I will scream.

This small dude.
Is he short? Is he small?
He's short, yeah.
He's a very short man.
How short is he?
Show me.
He's like right here.
He's a short man.
Ah, damn.
Yeah, I think he was wearing boots, too.
Oh.
We're talking about Jesse from Breaking Bad, in case you don't know who Aaron Paul is.
That's a little bitch man.
Not call him a bitch.
That's what he says in the show.
And so I didn't want to take a picture.
But Brent was like, hey, man, do you want to take a picture?
Just 10 seconds.
And like took the picture like that.
And he had enough time to throw up deuces.
And so like I have that picture.
So it's super nice.
I saw it.
Ryan's not lying.
He took it.
Actually, the way you took the picture is it looks like he came up to you for a picture.
I know.
Because like it looks like he's holding the phone and throwing up a peace sign.
I know.
So it looks like and you're like smiling normally.
So it looks like he's a fan of Super Mecca and came up for a picture.
But he was super nice.
And I have to say, like, it's like he has every right to kind of be like, no, no, dude,
no.
But he well, Brent trapped him, to be honest.
He was like 10 seconds and then snap the picture, like held it there.
It was a five second encounter. I didn't even have time to tell him, to be honest. He was like, 10 seconds, and then snapped the picture. Like, held it there. It was a five-second encounter.
I didn't even have time to tell him I appreciated his work.
Did Brent, too, take a picture with him, too?
Oh, Brent, too, was in the restroom.
He was super mad.
And he's like, I wanted to see Aaron Paul!
I tried for the best.
I don't think Aaron Paul would have liked that too much.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But, yeah, man.
It's been a busy fucking week. Even though I've been, like, sick and down after man it's it's been a busy fucking week even even though i've
been like sick and down after the tour it's been a i i know i i have an inkling of why i got sick
on that the last show would it happen to be because of a certain fan's beverage yes that
you decided to partake in for for some reason he was a cool dude of course a sip of his beer and then he's you know a
lot of cool dudes are sick too yeah not like sick bastards but that's that's this fan was sick
um i took a sip and he's like and then his friends were like dude you just got over being sick and i
was like awesome uh i mean i heard him talking about typhoid like when he was farther away so
hopefully i don't have typhoid like that's some o organ trail shit is it yeah how do you get typhoid by taking a sip of a
fan's beverage after a show and how do you get it sounds like something you get he was traveling the
organ trail i'm pretty sure that's in the organ trail what is it though typhoid yeah i don't know
it sounds it sounds like a badass electronic artist name though because that definitely doesn't feel comfortable typhoid yeah no that sounds like
a bad one that sounds like one you don't want but you know what does sound like something i do want
what me undies ask yourself this one very important question okay is your underwear
making you happy at this very f***ing moment uh don't swear but swear, but no, it's not. When you like to be wearing underwear that is
so soft that you feel like you're making
love to an actual cloud all
day long, they do realize
they're talking about some dude f***ing
a cloud. Well, I've got one word
for you. Me undies. In fact,
Matt? Yeah.
Whoa! What am I wearing right now? Shit, Ryan, those
are me undies. And what is this?
That's your penis, dude! Jesus!
You really just showed it to me!
Aw man, they need to put some like curtains on the recording room window.
You saw me look at every like-
I saw you like-
You knew the dick was coming because I was like-
Yeah, right when you dropped Trow, you looked at that window to make sure no one was peeking in.
Yeah, well that was uh, those were nice MeUndies.
But anyways, what does Buzzfeed have to say about MeUndies?
Buzzfeed says,
They feel like actual heaven against your skin.
We're going to assume heaven is really soft in this context.
And real.
Ask Men said they feel like silk drenched in hand lotion.
These undies are so soft, they make Bob Ross's voice sound like Gilbert Gottfried.
They are so soft that Kenny G thinks about them to get inspired to write his next song.
Wait, wait, wait.
They're so soft they make...
Don't they mean they're so soft
they make Gilbert Gottfried's voice
sound like Bob Ross?
I'm pretty sure that's what they meant.
MeUndies uses the coveted micromodal fabric,
which is a full three times softer than cotton.
Take that, big cotton.
Seriously, though, like,
they're comfortable as all hell.
Sorry, all heaven.
Are you wearing them too?
No, I'm wearing my boring ass.
I can't say the brand because I don't think we're allowed to.
But I'm wearing...
Look how boring this underwear is I'm wearing right now.
Do you think this shit is soft, Ryan?
No.
Look at that shit.
Not soft.
Look at this.
Yeah, I see.
That's soft.
That's so soft.
Don't expose yourself.
I even have pajama bottoms.
I'm thinking about getting some of their t-shirts because they're there their stuff is is so comfortable
It's super nice and like I'm saying this for the ad read
But I legitimately own a good bit of underwear and pajama bottoms from them
And I do too like most of my underwear is they're fucking come. I mean sorry
God, not only will you feel like your loins are being hugged by joy itself
But me undies gives you multiple style options for both men and women
choose between classic colors to adventurous prints.
Prints like significant otters, plant babies, and shamrocks.
Speaking of prints, why not match your bottom half with your better half
and get matching prints for you and your partner?
MeUndies is also the go-to for the softest loungewear on this side of the Mississippi.

But I have to go handle some business.
It's going to take a bit.
On the porcelain throne.
It'll take a little bit.
Because I'm sick
nature is calling
I'll leave too I'll let it even cool off
I'm back
had to take care of business
I wanna talk about something
that was the first thing I found out about
when I woke up this morning
I don't know if you've heard the news yet.
It was really
sad.
Reggie? Reggie Fils-Aimé.
Reggie has passed away.
No, I'm just kidding.
Reggie's retiring from Nintendo
as the president of Nintendo of America.
He's like, I got enough money now.
I don't need to do shit.
He doesn't. Well, I've made money now. I don't need to do shit. He doesn't.
Well, I've made enough money.
I am done as president of Nintendo.
Could you imagine if that was the announcement?
I finally made $100,000.
After all those years at Nintendo.
My savings account is finally at $100,000.
But now the new guy, haha, Bowser, blah, blah, blah.
That's honestly, like, insane.
That's not fake. Like, the new president of Nintendo his last name
is Bowser good for him
that's fucking awesome do you think he'll ever
cause like Reggie brought this like weird
charm to things no one can replace Reggie
where it was like
at the base of it was like this
kind of
cringy dad type
persona but you loved him but he legitimately like would like this kind of like cringy dad type persona.
But you loved him.
But he legitimately like would just storm through
and with excitement about any project
that Nintendo was working on.
And so like to have someone like not only be the president,
but be very vocal.
The face, like that type of face.
Yeah.
I don't think anyone can ever replace
Reggie because he's so unique.
But I think that... Phil Spencer's
super awesome. They can be their own
type of thing. Who's Phil Spencer?
He's the Xbox man.
Xbox man, okay.
I think that
what's his name? David Bowser?
Something Bowser? Something Bowser.
Just call him Mr. Bowser.
Mr. Bowser.
Yeah.
That's what people say, Mr. Bowser.
That's honestly pretty rad.
The president of Nintendo is Mr. Bowser, and it's not even a joke.
Like, his last name is legitimately Bowser.
I'm wondering if this will start the dark times of Nintendo.
Well, Bowser's the bad guy.
And then the joke will be like, oh, Bowser was running it.
No, what?
What better person to hold the keys to the nintendo castle than mr bowser i know like
that video made me sad it showed like all the videos of reggie having fun and like showing off
the original yes yeah like fuck man i'm gonna miss reggie a lot like i really am he's not that old
why is he retiring because he's made enough money yeah he's the president of nintendo he probably
made some good money like i'm sure if most people could retire at the age of like
45 or 50, they
would. Oh, absolutely. You know what's
interesting? What? Never mind.
I was just gonna say, like, how
the office, while
Aaron and Dan are off
playing around in Hawaii, it's kind of
turned into like a Smash
tournament space.
It has, yeah. People play Smash every day here.
They're just playing a lot of Smash.
Yeah.
Ross is out there playing Smash.
He's playing right now.
He's earning his paycheck.
Speaking of Ross, yesterday I was driving and-
Oh, yeah.
It was probably like 7.30 at night, so it's kind of dark out, and I stop at a red light.
And who's crossing
the street but ross just what a coincidence i'm like holy shit that's ross so i just start blowing
my horn like like just to fuck with him and i roll down the window and i'm going sir sir sir sir
and ross is like he turns and he looks at my car and he's like oh and he's like freaked out
but he tries to ignore it and i'm like sir he tries to ignore it and he just keeps he walks a little bit faster and he looks
really upset and uncomfortable and he crosses the street and starts walking away down the sidewalk
and i'm still jackson and i are both just loudly yelling sir and still honking the horn you should
have been like ross o'donovan game grumps but he never he never saw it was me like i just drove off and i think that's my
favorite part of that whole exchange was that to this right now in this moment he thinks that
someone just flipped his shit on him for no reason while he was crossing the street we we should uh
fake a package being sent to his place that just says more mario maker please
and it's just like filled filled with white powder and wires
sticking out. Yeah, that ain't
no joke. Yeah, that'll
land you in federal prison for
a long time, so don't do that, guys.
Yeah, even if it's fake,
even if it's just sugar,
it's still counted as terrorism
in the eyes of the federal government.
If you guys send a fake
package to our P.O. Box,
they're real good at tracking that shit down.
They take that shit seriously.
They have divisions just to track that shit down, so.
Jesse Smollett will know that soon enough.
That's in the news right now.
Let's talk about that.
I don't want to talk too much of it, but he's just an idiot.
Dude, from the beginning, I was kind of like, this is a weird story.
It just felt off.
So, basically, what happened? He, like, faked an attack on. It just felt off. So basically what happened?
He like faked an attack on himself?
He faked a hate crime on himself.
Ooh.
Yikes.
Which is pretty bad.
Yeah, that's pretty bad.
So he led the Chicago Police Department, which has what?
One of the highest crime rates out there.
Dude, they have nothing else to do.
So they're dealing with a lot of shit.
Meanwhile,
they're dealing with some idiot who's on some show that nobody watches.
I'm sorry.
I'm sure a lot of people watch it.
I don't watch it.
So I'm really stick.
I'm really,
I'm a projecting myself onto a lot of people,
but,
um,
apparently the investigation,
uh,
came out to be that he did this.
He,
he personally signed a check
to pay these people to do this.
Like, it's signed by him and everything.
You know, usually, if you're going to commit a crime,
it's best to probably pay in cash
and not a signed check.
Open your mouth, Jussie!
Classic. Classic, right?
Do you think he, like, on the place with the check,
we have to write what the check's for?
He was like, for fake hate crime?
Yeah, he said that and then he said not Jussie or whatever his name is.
He signed his name as not Jussie.
Dude, I'm smelling the inside of my ass.
Yeah, well, thank you for doing that. It's a very hot room and I'm glad that you had to release the flat seat.
I thought it was very relevant since we're talking about a piece of shit.
Well, okay. I mean, we could have added a fake fart sound.
You didn't actually have to straight go through the measures
of actually doing that.
Someone is standing outside of the recording room.
I'm going to guess there's Ike, there's Tucker, and...
No, that's Crank Game.
I want to say that's...
No, Ike is on the left.
I'm saying the person who is pretending to be my dog, Lego,
which I do not take very
lightly because I miss him to death.
That's going to be Ethan Nestor.
That's Ethan Nestor from Crank Gameplays.
He's staring in the recording room while we
record this. He's got a furry mask on. We're waving at him.
He's waving back. He took it off.
I'm going to throw him a few kisses.
There you are. There you are. He's throwing us
a few kisses back. He's a wonderful boy.
I caught one. I caught a kiss.
The first time I ever saw Ethan
was when he sent me a front flip
through Twitter.
Or was it on Vine?
Get in here, Ethan.
Let me make some room for him.
The first time I was saying
that I think I saw you or we interacted in any way
was back when Cyndago was still a thing
and I lived in South Carolina and we had just got done
doing like like some sort of markiplier thing and you sent us a front flip I
believe or maybe it was a back flip he said he's full frontal I was how the
first time I ever that was that was the first thing I front sent you was full
frontal nudity you you were really big into front flips back in the day.
Yeah, I did gymnastics for a little bit.
Can you still do front flips?
Yeah.
You definitely sent a front flip.
Did I?
Yeah, you did.
I don't remember this at all.
It said, here's a front flip.
I don't know.
You just sent it.
Wait, wait, wait.
This was back when you had shorter hair.
You weren't wearing glasses.
And, you know.
I remember we played Left 4 Dead 2 that one time.
Yes.
And then.
A long time ago.
I was in high school and my dad was like, you need to go to bed.
It's a school night.
And I was like, oh, Ryan, I'm sorry.
I have to go to bed.
It's like, it's fine, buddy.
I'm just going to go to my job in the morning.
Food lion.
Do you think you could do a front flip right now for us?
No, the ceiling's too low.
Can you, but you can still do front flips.
I can still do it.
Okay.
I can do back flips easier, which is a surprise.
Back flips are easier?
Back flips are easier because if you think about a back flip,
when you're coming down from it, you can see where you're landing,
so it's easier to land.
True, true, yeah.
With a front flip, you're like, it's a blind landing.
How long does it take, like when you do flips and stuff,
how long does it take of practice to not get disoriented in air?
I think it's less of like disorienting,
like being disoriented and more of like being scared.
Okay.
Because, yeah.
It's all about commitment, guys.
You've got to commit to it.
If you land on your head, you're dead, though.
That sucks.
I think that my legs
might be a little too long because even on trampolines
when I try to flip, my feet and legs
always clip before I land.
You do have really long legs. I got long limbs.
You gotta tuck them in, right?
It's all about that tuck.
It's like you're doing a big squat.
I don't have the leg strength. I don't have the muscles in my legs
to be able to tuck it in fast enough.
You don't have the leg strength to bend your legs. the muscles in my legs to be able to tuck it in fast enough. You don't have the leg strength to bend your legs?
No! Cause when you're flipping, that's like, you really gotta like, pull.
I don't- I honestly have no leg strength. When I was skiing once,
um, I had to turn really fast and I- I didn't have time, like,
like, my legs weren't strong enough to turn me fast enough, and I went straight over a little, like, three foot ledge into some trees and it sucked.
Sorry. You said a puke a little bit. Yeah, I'm- I'm actually- That's into some trees, and it sucked. Sorry.
I said a puke a little bit.
Yeah, I'm actually...
That's because you're drinking LaCroix.
I love LaCroix.
I'm actually pretty offended you don't remember
sending me a front flip via Twitter.
It wasn't like a DM.
You were, like, on Twitter.
It's like, hey, baby, check this out.
And I think you were like, hey, dumbass,
your content fucking sucks.
Check out this front flip.
Send Markiplier my regards,
and then you did a front flip.
That's probably how it happened
that's how it all started
well I'll leave you boys to your podcast I need to go and
talk to Tucker
bye Ethan thanks for stopping by go check out
Crank Gameplay maybe we'll have you on the podcast
for a full episode one of these days and not
just like a five minute segment
cause your name's not gonna be up in the title I apologize
unfortunately
you weren't on for at least half an hour.
He's not on the marquee for this one.
I'll be back in a day for you, boys.
Thank you.
You have a good rest of your day, my boy.
It was so nice that our friend Ethan could drop by for a few seconds.
But you know what's even nicer?
Doing another ad read.
Whoa, is this one about loans?
I, uh, yes.
Wow.
Did you know that applying for a loan is a lot like applying for a job that you don't get to interview for?
Instead, loan companies make their decisions based off of your credit score and history without getting to know the whole you.
Now, thanks to Upstart.com, it never has to be that way again.
Upstart is revolutionizing the way you borrow money by rewarding you for your job experience and education in the form of a smarter interest rate.
Damn, dude.
That was swift.
Thanks.
Damn, dude. That was swift.
Thanks.
Unlike traditional credit underwriting, which could be biased against people with a short credit history,
Upstart goes beyond the traditional FICO credit score when assessing your creditworthiness.
Upstart believes you're more than just your credit score.
They make it fast, simple, and easy for you to check your rate in less than two minutes without affecting your credit score. The best part? Once your loan's approved, the funds will be transferred to you the very next business day.
The next day.
Over 100,000 people have used Upstart to pay off credit cards, student loans, fund their wedding, or to make a large purchase.
Free yourself from the burden of high-interest credit card debt by consolidating everything into one monthly payment with Upstart.
Hurry to Upstart.com slash SuperMega to find out how low your Upstart rate is.
Checking your rate only takes two minutes and won't affect your credit.
That's Upstart.com slash super mega yeah upstart.com slash super mega if you want to see how low your
upstart rate is there's there's a big pile of bananas at the grocery store that i wanted to
purchase and thanks to upstart i was able to buy them all this place is filled with rotting bananas
yeah i don't know what you were planning on doing with all those bananas.
Donkey Kong's banana hoard.
I didn't know they went bad after a week or so.
Yeah, bananas go bad.
It's disgusting.
How does he hoard all those bananas then?
Does he just go through bananas that fast?
Does he eat them that fast?
Like, do they not go bad?
Something I never really thought about in regards to Donkey Kong.
Yeah, dude, he has like 500 million bananas in his little hoard.
Like, give it three days and that place is a disgusting, like, you can't even go in there.
It's so bad.
He does travel all over his island and defeat the evil King Crocodile.
King Crocodile?
King Cro-Cruel.
King Cruel.
King Cruel.
Dr. Cruel.
King K. Rool.
Yeah.
Think about, like, think about the fruit fly infestation he's got to have after, like, two days.
Where do those things-
Fruit flies are disgusting.
Where do they come from, dude?
Yeah, fruit flies are fucking disgusting, dude.
Where do they come from?
Like, where do they go?
The fruit themselves?
Where do they come from, Cotton Eye Joe?
I really don't know where they come from, because all I know is there are some people that leave their shit out, like, food, and then they'll just appear.
Like, they just appear, like, instantly. Yeah. It's like, then they'll just appear like they just appear like instantly
yeah it's like are they always
just around you just don't see them and then when there's
fruit they're like oh my time to shine are they born
into mold do they come from
the fruit like seriously
where do they come from because it's like no matter
what kind of closed off environment you're in
you leave a piece of fruit out they're there and it's like
where do they come from are they just hiding
everywhere always waiting they have a little detector man leave fruit out, they're there. And it's like, where do they come from? Are they just hiding everywhere, always waiting?
They have a little detector.
Man leave fruit out.
It's our time to shine.
Like, where do they fucking come from?
It's like an Air Force base and an alarm goes off.
It's like, move out, move out.
They all fly off, ready to devour the fruit and infest my kitchen.
They look like gnats.
Yeah, they're like the same thing, except they don't bite.
Gnats are fucking awful.
Gnats fucking suck, dude. Fuck gnats. I, they're like the same thing, except they don't bite. Gnats are fucking awful. Gnats fucking suck, dude.
Fuck gnats.
I don't know if you listeners, I'm sure there's a bunch of you that don't have gnats where you live.
Imagine mosquitoes, but they're tinier.
The size of airplanes.
That's what a gnat is.
They destroy buildings.
Millions of casualties.
Imagine if there was a fucking insect the size of a, like, how big is the biggest insect, do you think, like, in North America?
It's got to be some big ass, like, tarantula.
Yeah, like a tarantula, probably the size of two of my hands put together.
Could you imagine a bug the size of Lego or banana?
I don't want to.
Just as thick and just, like, roaming around?
Oh, man.
How come they don't exist?
Why are bugs small? Vsauce, answer that for me, please. Oh,. How come they don't exist? Why are bugs, why are bugs small?
Vsauce,
answer that for me please.
Oh yeah,
why are bugs always small?
Like why are there no big bugs?
There's big fish,
there's small fish.
Great movie.
There's big humans
and small humans.
There's big elephants
and pygmy elephants.
You know what's weird?
There's not really.
I'm sure there are.
I'm sure there's small elephants.
Like little dwarf elephants.
You know what's crazy is like,
sorry, little people elephants. Before, what are you supposed to call little little animals
then just little elephants animals but dwarfism oh oh yeah you're right it is dwarfism never mind
i always forget the conclusion of the argument we come to um basically like i always forget
that before humans there was like a whole nother, like, life on Earth breed. And those things were fucking huge.
Like, there were dinosaurs, like, massive fucking things, you know?
Well, there's that quote, and I can't remember,
is it Stegosaurus and Tyrannosaurus were, like, millions of years apart?
Or two dinosaurs that people usually link together in the same period
are actually, like, millions of years apart?
I can't believe that like dinosaurs existed and
like just ruled the earth for so fucking long like that's crazy like our planet just the majority
than us right yeah way longer like the majority of our planet has just been like if you had to
summarize it it's massive reptiles it's not humans we're the new shitty disease yeah we just popped
up but how do how do dinosaurs exist for millions of years and not build a fucking car?
Seriously, how did dinosaurs not come up
with Google or Apple or some shit?
Y'all couldn't create drive-thrus and iPhones?
It took us a few thousand years.
Sorry, a couple thousand years.
Judging by the
Christian
calendar.
Earth's only 6,000 years old, right?
So don't get it mistaken.
Dinosaurs were here for a couple hundred and then humans came along.
Actually, they existed
with humans. I remember getting into a...
We rode them.
We tamed those beasts
that were 5,000 times larger
than us. We tamed those giant chickens.
Have you ever seen a chicken?
No, I've never seen a chicken, Ryan. Have you ever seen a chicken in real life?
Have you ever been with a chicken? Yeah, I've held a chicken life have you ever been with a chicken yeah i've i've i've held a chicken have i ever been with a chicken like no
not sexually but i have i have held a chicken before they're little fucking assholes they are
dude they're mean like chicken you imagine a big thing like a chicken that's like bigger than you
no i don't know that's what a dinosaur is that shit's gonna kill me dinosaurs had feathers too
like remember when we were kids it was like they have scales and then all of a sudden one day they're like just kidding dinosaurs actually have feathers we lied
fuck i i i prefer my dinosaurs without feathers thank you i i you know like it feels weird to
think of them with feathers i grew up imagining them as like bright vivid colors you know like
didn't you like like there's a lot of pictures that had like red and green and blue like yellow
and it's like like any reptileile. They had weird colors sometimes.
They were probably just nasty, smelled like shit, and had feathers all over them.
They were fucking chomping at each other.
Yeah.
And then beaks had to exist.
No, beaks were already a thing.
That's why they had pterodactyls.
Yeah, dude, pterodactyls.
If you want to talk about like one of the scariest dinosaurs, I think pterodactyls might take the cake for that one.
They're mean.
They're mean?
Oh, I'm sure they're mean.
I didn't exist. But also, they're just freaky
looking. I think any creature that's
wild in the Cretaceous
or any prehistoric period is going to be
quote-unquote mean from our
perspective. Oh, yeah. Like, none of them
are sweet little animals, you know? It's like,
aw, come here. Well, you can't be. You can't be
a sweet animal and expect to survive.
They have to survive. So it's like,
pterodactyls' heads, like, you look at the shape of a pterodactyl, that shit's, like, freaky, right?
It's like an alien.
That thing is, like, not going to be nice to me.
And it's going to swoop out of the sky, and it's going to stab me with its five-foot beak and, like, carry me away to its nest and, like, feed me to its little pterodactyl babies.
It's going to stab you through your, like, through your chest and carry you away.
Yeah. And I'm just going to be you through your, like, through your chest and carry you. Yeah.
And I'm just going to be up there like, oh, this sucks.
So I guess, so when, when birds have beaks like that, like you think of woodpeckers and
stuff, they, they just drill into the person, like the other creature's head just to kill
it, right?
No.
That's what they do.
They drill, they drill into trees and eat bugs.
Well, I know know that but like
if you have a long beak and you're hunting an animal don't you peck at wouldn't a pterodactyl
will peck at your fucking head like i'm thinking of cats they go for the throat pterodactyl to get
you do they just peck all over i imagine it would just fucking open its mouth grab me at some point
i'm a i'm a long skinny fucker
it can grab me pretty much anywhere
and then it's gonna do it like you know when a dog has a toy
and it shakes its head around really fast
it's gonna do that with my body and then it's gonna
fly away with me
Matt if you tell Don
to not draw a pterodactyl
in this thumbnail I'll be disappointed
I'm gonna tell Don
for this thumbnail have
me being brutally attacked by a pterodactyl and Ryan this thumbnail i'll be disappointed i'm gonna tell don hey for this thumbnail have have uh
me being brutally attacked by a pterodactyl and ryan is going to be um in the stomach stretching
out like like that or like no i'm in the nest being eaten torn apart by the babies and you're
like being held up how about next no how about you're sitting with the babies with a bucket of popcorn okay yeah perfect that's that's perfect actually can we do that yeah i love when
we come up with the thumbnail during the podcast because if people are like yeah we already know
what it is guys yeah we saw it before we clicked on the video we we saw the we saw it like 45
minutes ago like we've been but it's exciting for us yeah it's you guys are watching the creative
process unfold for Super Mega.
You know, this is a big fucking deal.
Like, this is huge.
Oh, also, guys, today, at noon Pacific time, the Super Mega animated collab is dropping.
A ton of artists worked really hard on this.
It was all fan organized.
We didn't have anything to do with this.
This was completely the community.
Even our past channel artist kia did a
bit yeah it's really good like i fucking love kia uh there's a lot of other artists that are just
like you'll see them they're all credited no yeah they're all credit but there's also like
there's some bigger ones like uh senior palo or sir palo i don't is it senior i think senior
palo did some stuff uh he did something yeah banksy actually did something for it um ringo
star he he did a
a little segment
it's actually really
fucking awesome
like a bunch of you guys
it's a whole episode
yeah
they got together
and they animated
an entire super mega episode
in chunks of like
20 to 30
like everyone was
divvied off a little segment
like 30 seconds
yeah 30 seconds
and it's actually
incredible
how long is it?
it's 15 minutes
it's like a full 15 minute animation.
I gotta sit down and watch it.
No, I watched it last night.
It is wild.
It's so fucking good.
I was, Jackson and I watched it and we were like cracking up.
Like, you guys killed it.
Every single person involved in that project.
Like, I can't believe people did this all on their own.
And then we're just like, here you go, guys.
Upload this.
It's like like holy fuck thank you for putting your time and passion and skill
into something so so outwardly stupid as what we do but y'all guys turned it into art we we we
we spoke into mics and we played a video game and you guys turned it into a legitimate piece of art
that took hours and hours to put together
and that's just fucking awesome
yeah like I'm really excited for this to drop
you guys everyone involved
we absolutely love you give yourself a huge
pat on the back
I'm gonna give you guys a big round of applause
I'm slapping my big thighs
my big white thighs
slap em
I'm sorry the way I was slapping hurt my hand which means it probably slap your thighs too. My big white thighs. Slap them. I'm sorry.
The way I was slapping hurt my hand, which means it probably hurt your thighs.
Burning calories, right?
By slapping yourself?
Yeah.
Your skin goes, and so it forces out the calories.
It poofs them out in like a little cloud.
Like how spores, like mushrooms, like shoot out spores.
Okay.
It's terrifying.
It is.
Because I was actually hiking once, and I found thisores. Okay. It's terrifying. It is.
Because I was actually hiking once and I found this really cool mushroom.
And I was like, whoa.
And I touched it. And I ate it.
And I touched it and it just shot out like a cloud.
And I fucking freaked out.
Wait, it just went.
Yeah, it went.
And I was like, ah!
And it scared me so bad.
And I ran to my dad.
I was like, dad!
Dad!
And I didn't know what the hell happened.
And he's like, those are spores, son.
And then my dad ate the mushrooms and he got naked and he tripped his ass off.
And I didn't see him for quite some time.
We actually had to get the park rangers to go find him.
One of the worst days of my life.
Was that the time he was in the log or was that the time that he was up in the tree?
No, both of those completely different times.
Oh, I didn't hear about this part then.
Okay.
I tried to impress him.
What did they end up finding him then?
Or you'll tell me later.
He was just off in the woods when they found him
it was like a day and a half later
but basically
yeah spores are freaky
we should play the game spore on our channel
make some fun shit
yeah we can make a little penis
how about we only make
penis monsters dude right
funny I play spore
I make funny penis-shaped human.
Actually, that has to be our one thing that we can't do in Spore,
is make a penis-shaped monster.
Says who, Ryan?
What, are you the joke police now?
Everyone's made a penis.
We haven't made a penis.
Has anyone made a pussy, though?
We can make a pussy.
We can make a pussy monster.
The pussy monster. I make a pussy we can make a pussy monster the pussy monster i'm the pussy
monster i uh i actually we went to when we were in portland oregon we went to a restaurant called
slappy cakes which is where you make your own pancakes uh like korean barbecue style on a
little griddle in front of you um i really enjoyed it i i thought the ingredients were just average quality.
And what the place has going for it is the fact that you make it in front of you.
It's very, like, I don't know what I expected.
Because when I make my own pancakes, it's just going to be a sludge of disgusting garbage.
my own pancakes it's just gonna be a sludge of disgusting garbage
and it was good but like it's just gonna be
pancake batter
chocolate chips peanut butter chips
chocolate like it's just a big
fucking sludge
of heart disease
yeah
that's pretty accurate I enjoyed
it I put bacon in mine but I brought this up
because I was the only
one at the table who made a penis.
And then I felt real bad.
I was like, I thought that at least you would have done it or Jackson would have done it or even Vernon.
No, you all took the high road.
And I was the one.
Like after we left, Adam brought it up.
He was like, yeah, Matt's the only one that made a penis.
And then it like really hit me.
I was like, man, I really am still in fourth grade.
I really did just draw a penis.
Like everyone was just like making like Garfield or something creative. And I'm like, oh, I really am still in fourth grade. I really did just draw a penis. Like everyone was just like making like Garfield or something creative.
And I'm like, oh, why would I make a penis?
Well, Vernon made the, what do you call that S?
The Stussy S.
The Stussy S?
Yeah.
Why is it called Stussy S?
It's a brand.
It's a clothing brand.
So like when you and I were drawing that back in grade school.
That was a brand?
Yeah.
I thought it was just a cool little thing.
I didn't know it was a brand.
It's from a brand. Yeah. Stussy, Stussy. I don't know how you fucking say it. I think a brand? Yeah. I thought it was just a cool little thing. I didn't know it was a brand. It's from a brand, yeah.
Stussy, Stussy, I don't know how you fucking say it. I think it's Stussy.
Where you draw the six lines,
three on top, three on bottom, and then just
and then do a little roof
on either end. Ryan, what are the
odds, you know that Iron Giant
tattoo on your back? What are the odds you get the Stussy S
on his chest, like added to the tattoo?
Zero? Zero. Why not?
Because I don't want to disrespect
the man back there. I fucking love that
picture of the iron giant wearing like the adidas
tracksuit and like he has a backwards hat
and he has like a cigar or something
he has like a bottle of vodka
he's like looking down at Hogan
is it the one where he's like posing?
yeah he's doing like the slob squat
oh my god Ryan. these are the stinky ones too
yeah I'm well aware Ryan I'm well aware, Ryan.
I'm well aware.
I've been eating well though.
I just walked to a taco place and had three
what is it called?
Chimichangas? No, it's a type of
it's a Spanish word for
the spork
some pork
what's it called? Chicharrones?
I had three
chorizo tacos. Oh dude, chorizo is the fucking bomb. It's it called? I had three chorizo tacos.
Oh, dude, chorizo is the fucking bomb.
It's really good.
Chorizo is like the best meat,
in my opinion.
But like, dude,
I feel really motivated now
that I'm getting over my sickness.
I want to start waking up
at the same time every day.
I want to get in a better sleeping habit
and I want to start eating better
and gaining weight again.
Guys, super mega fans, this is a call to action to keep me motivated.
I want you to be hounding me.
Make it sure I'm waking up at the same time every day.
Make him feel bad about how he looks.
You don't have to make me feel bad about how I look.
You can just be like, hey, Matt, I hope you're eating well.
You don't have to be like, you skinny fucking asshole.
You better be gaining weight because you look like a sick fuck.
I don't know.
Maybe bullying is the key for you.
Bullying is never the key.
Why are you only wearing one shoe, Ryan? I just noticed that.
Because we're halfway out the door already.
We're halfway out the door?
And now we're all the way out the door. Bye!
