This one is about Anthony and his beautiful emo hair. Dude, actually, fun fact about Anthony Padilla. When I was in middle school, I was such a big fan of Smosh. Late elementary school, early middle school. Anthony Padilla was like my icon, my idol.
Starting point is 00:02:08 He was your icon and idol? If you go back and you watch my Shane Dawson video, it was that era of my life. Because of your hair? I'm trying to do my hair like Anthony Padilla. I'm trying to kind of look like him. And I couldn't do it. I couldn't pull it off. Anthony was always like, he was the more attractive
Starting point is 00:02:27 one of the two right he was known as like the hot one and then Ian was the the the other one like Anthony that's just how it was like he was the emo oh that's the dynamic yeah he was like the hot like or like mid-2000s scene kid. Like how on our channel, Jackson and Harrison are the hot ones and we're the funny ones. Exactly. Right. Exactly. Jackson's incredibly sexy. But yeah. Maybe I should try to go
Starting point is 00:02:55 do what Anthony's doing. Start your own channel and quit soon? No. No, no, no, no. Maybe I should try to do my hair like him and everything again. Like dye it black. You want to dye your hair black i'm thinking about it i'm gonna get ripped like anthony is should i should i uh um you can look like ian you get a high and tight and uh bleach my hair white it's a high and tight it's a military dude we should just what if we changed our entire look it's that classic
Starting point is 00:03:28 yeah i know what you're talking about now what if we changed our entire look like 2020 super mega's look is just military well we're gonna sport the high i think they're called the high and tights it's that sounds like i'm gonna look up high and tight because that's what it is you know it's high up on your head and it's tight. Or it could be talking about us. Ooh. Because we're high and we're tight. Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Ha ha. High and tight. I'm looking it up just to make sure. I would look so bad. Yeah, yeah. The high and tight. I was right. I would look so bad with a shaved head. You know, it's just always that.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Yeah, it's literally, it's high and it's tight. That's the one that I think of. It's so, it's an interesting haircut. I'm sure I think of. It's so, it's an interesting haircut. I'm sure there's several men that have it right now, yeah. Would you get flat tops? Would you get flat tops? Like a racer head style. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:14 Have you seen, what's the movie, House Party? House Party. It's an old, like, 80s or 90s movie. And the main character has a crazy flat top. It's like. I haven't seen house party unfortunately Matthew damn it damn it but I have seen
Starting point is 00:04:29 other movies yeah for example I recently went back and watched the classic child's play from 1988 you watched the first one yeah how was it I really I enjoy it just because
Starting point is 00:04:44 I'm not i'm not gonna talk ill of the new one um but i like the original more strictly because okay so you know how in the new one it's kind of deficient technology yeah you know the have you seen the 1988 one no it scared me too much as a kid the plot is there's a serial killer he's called he's called the strangler and he gets fatally shot in the shoot in a shootout in the beginning of the film and so he goes into a toy store and uses voodoo magic to transfer his soul into the doll of a into like the chucky doll and uh i love that i love it because in because the reason i love it so much is there's a stark con there's like a stark contrast between the two in terms of like the personality of chucky and the new one it's kind of that creepy
Starting point is 00:05:38 toy where it's like you're my buddy we'll be friends forever don't you want to be my friend you know that type of thing but in this one like the the line is just like the mom's holding the doll up speak just speak say something and then she lights a match and throws it in the fireplace and he's like speaker i'll throw you in the fire and then like his face just randomly goes from blank to like this is the big moment in the movie where he makes himself known his face changes he goes you dumb bitch you fucking slut and it's just like it's just so abrasive and i just love the oh i i've seen that i've seen that scene i think it's actually scarier because it's like if i had like a doll and it was that abrasive to me i'd be like i'm in danger right now and he starts like biting her and shit yeah that's scary as fuck uh but yeah that's that's that's why i i kind of wish they went even more goofy with the
Starting point is 00:06:31 new one the new one was goofy as is like i'm like a crazy lisp or like competitive they should have just made chucky black why not everything's the same everything's the exact same um i used to have nightmares all the time uh black chucky not about black chucky but when i was a kid uh i i was so freaked out just by the cover of child's play because i would be in the uh it's a good song uh yeah paul mccartney covered it it was really good i was in um like the vhs store back when when that was the the big shit and uh i i remember i seen the cover for the vhs very descriptive and it was the shit it was the big shit it was the big shit uh sounds like a swimming hole no remember before you want to go you and the boys want to go down to the big shit y'all want to go to the big shit and goof around
Starting point is 00:07:22 you want to monkey around a little sorry i interrupted no it's okay but uh i remember like the cover was was him with uh like some scissors or something it's like a knife it's classic yeah yeah yeah and there's another one where he has like scissors and he's there's like a jack in the box popping out and he's gonna cut its neck or something scared me dude i do you remember like as a kid going into uh like not blockbuster but like even like a little before that, there was like little small VHS stores where it would just be like Nintendo 64 games. Yeah. Those cardboard VHS boxes. I remember that shit.
Starting point is 00:07:56 That was so cool. I went to Blockbuster when it was for video games because, you know, they had GameStop and EB Games, but they also had shops called like Rhino Games and shit like that. And that's just because you could get them for cheaper. It didn't matter because it doesn't – the store doesn't matter. They sell the same game. I remember. But Blockbuster, I just remember each time I'd go there. game i remember but blockbuster i just remember each time i go there a part of the grandeur of blockbuster was spending like 20 minutes just walking on yeah just looking at the covers
Starting point is 00:08:33 looking at the back and looking at the pictures and shit dude i legit i'm sure like parents now they they're looking back like i couldn't imagine walking through like a video store seeing my kid just like i'm like yep that's a movie uh-huh mom what's this one that's a you won't you wouldn't like that that one's not for you the thing is uh yeah netflix and hulu and amazon like it's so great but i think the thing that sucked that you can never match with blockbuster is when I go on Netflix and I have no idea what I want to watch, I'll go through like the front page of Netflix and Hulu and Amazon like video and I'll go through all those things. And you know, you see a lot of titles but at the same time, a lot of those are just
Starting point is 00:09:19 like put there because the companies either like pay more or because they're trending. But you don't get to see the full scope of like what's actually what's available to watch because most of the time what i want to watch is something that i'm not even thinking about that i didn't have any intention of watching and browsing netflix isn't this like whenever i'm browsing a streaming service i never just happen upon something i want to watch exactly but if you're in blockbuster when you walk through those aisles you see so many movies that you always are like, oh yeah, I want to watch this movie. And you don't get that same thing on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:09:49 Because you have to search it and then you never know what movie you want to watch. Like, I'll be walking, I'll see Big Mama's House at Blockbuster. And I'm like, hell yeah, but I wouldn't think to search it. Yeah, Big Mama's House 2. I was in Little Tokyo recently and I was in a store that was selling the vinyl for Big Mama's House,
Starting point is 00:10:07 like the soundtrack. I should have got it. But I do miss Blockbuster and those stores. I remember the one I used to go to as a kid, I think it was called Mount Pleasant Video, or Mount Pleasant VHS or something, and it was just like VHSs, and they had a DVD section because I was like kind of new at the time.
Starting point is 00:10:26 And I remember they had a bunch of 64 games, like the cardboard boxes on display. Yeah. And they had, my favorite thing was they had this little like gumball machine, but it was like a baseball field. I do remember that. You know what I'm talking about? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where you could like, like the ball would.
Starting point is 00:10:44 There's like three separate areas. Yeah, the gumball would come down and it was almost like pinball. You could get a yeah yeah where you could like like the ball would there's like three separate areas yeah the gumball would come down it was almost like pinball you could get a home run or you could get like
Starting point is 00:10:50 a second base hit or a first base hit whatever you had the little like baseball guy and you'd flick it and he would like hit the gumball
Starting point is 00:10:55 and whatever like one it went into it didn't matter I think they had that at CC's Pizza yeah that sounds like a thing at CC's on San Andrews
Starting point is 00:11:01 you know what I'm saying San Andrews Road yeah dude everyone everyone misses CC's dude On St. Andrews, you know what I'm saying? St. Andrews Road. Yeah, dude. Everyone misses CC's, dude. RIP to CC's. I legitimately like CC's. I do too! And there's so many people I say that to and they're just like,
Starting point is 00:11:15 what the fuck are you talking about? CC's pizza is still good. The last time I had it was probably two years ago. And from what I remember, I'm like, yeah, I still like it. Because they have the macaroni and cheese pizza barbecue one the barbecue pizza where it's like they have the buffalo wings pizza they also have just regular pizza you can enjoy they have those fucking cinnamon rolls yeah the fucking oh i love the cinnamon thing man is it good quality food no no but neither is mcdonald's for five dollars
Starting point is 00:11:43 getting that whole buffet plus that little arcade. So good. Like, come on. You can't beat it. You can't beat the atmosphere. You can't beat the. Maybe we're just. It just has a smell.
Starting point is 00:11:53 It does. It has a certain musk about it. But it's like a. It's like. It's a good one. Yeah. CC smells like their cups. It does.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Those. Those like red translucent plastic cups. The red or the white, whichever color you use. I think it's just red. Yeah, there's those real cheap like red plastic ones that I feel like you could like, were probably like a penny to manufacture. Yeah. I love CC's Pizza.
Starting point is 00:12:15 I'm pretty sure they went bankrupt. Like they all closed down. They still exist. Nuh-uh. They didn't all close down. Most of them have closed down. Not the one on St. Andrews, I hope. Better not.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Come on. Is CC's still in business? I'm looking up CC's Pizza. Because the CC's in Charleston closed. Crispy Crust, CC, that's not. I don't think there's any in Los Angeles. Irmo, South Carolina. I remember CC's would always do school
Starting point is 00:12:39 fundraiser things, so every month my school would have a CC's night and i would go and it was super fun yeah i think this is the one yeah still open damn okay yeah st andrews road 6120 st andrews road columbia south carolina 29212 all right guys go check it out i don't think uh i don't think cc's gonna be one of those franchises that'll still be around in like a decade though you know well i saw i looked at no no no no no and it'll be one of those things like blockbuster everyone will remember like from our generation that's like
Starting point is 00:13:09 remember cc's pizza matt don't get too excited but i remember looking up cc's uh around here no way don't get me excited man what there's a cc's an hour away. Where? Hold on. It's in... Where? It's near Riverside. Okay. It's on the way to Riverside.
Starting point is 00:13:32 Corona? It's more near Corona? I know where Corona is. Yeah, that's where it is. Dude! And it's open. We should make a... We should go to CC's fucking pizza! We should 100% go to CC's.
Starting point is 00:13:42 Two grown men go vlog themselves driving an hour to a children's pizza restaurant we should also do the same thing what's the closest waffle house i think it's in arizona i'm gonna look up the closest waffle why is there no waffle house in los angeles it sounds it would seem like the perfect place for it angie has made it easier than ever to connect with skilled professionals to get all your jobs projects done well.

Starting point is 00:15:56 Let's go to Sacramento Waffle House. Can't even find it anywhere. Yeah, see, it won't even come up. Search Waffle House. I do gotta say, there is a really good place that you would love called House of Pies. It's in, I think it won't even come up. Search Waffle House. I do gotta say, there is a really good place that you would love called House of Pies. It's in, I think it's in Hollywood. It's like a pie diner.
Starting point is 00:16:11 You just go and you get like... I'm very picky with pies. They have a lot of pies. You just get a slice and they're real fucking good. Okay. I got the apple. Okay. I got some cherry.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Okay. It's good, dude. It's real fucking good. Man, I'm just like, now I'm in one of those blockbuster, like, nostalgia moods. Is there still, did the last one close yet? I think there's still one in Alaska. I know, I thought I saw some, like, YouTube.
Starting point is 00:16:33 I think Chris, Christopher Stuckman. Christopher Stuckman. He, uh, I think he went to the last blockbuster. The last blockbuster. I think, uh, that'd be a cool like, oh man, that'd be a good art, like modern art exhibit. Just rent out a space and do a pop-up where you just recreate a blockbuster so people can walk through and like experience it again. How about this?
Starting point is 00:16:55 You and I open up our own movie theater where the front area is where people can choose what movie they want. And they're in vhs uh players and they can buy snacks just like you would at a movie theater blockbuster because blockbuster had the snacks let's just say blockbuster and then when you go past the blockbuster section there are theaters and it's mainly a thing where you hand them the movie you get and each room is themed to look like an apartment or something like that and you can can watch movies with your friends in this nice, really comfortable theater-like space. But designed to look like a low-end apartment or something. Dude, that is legitimately such a good idea.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Doesn't that sound wonderful? That is. I want that to happen. That is. Like, that would be big if you did that. Yeah, but you know how much money I'd have to ask? That would be such a popular joint that everyone would be like, when their friends are telling, oh, we've got to go to this place.
Starting point is 00:17:52 We've got to go to the Blockbuster place. It's like you walk around, you get to pick out the movie, take it back, and then you just get to hang out with your friends in a little room and watch it. There could be a bunch of rooms so people could come all the time. Dude, that would be so cool. Because we have a projector system. And there could be one big theater where if like the other rooms are full it can always be showing like random movies and people can come and like there could be a schedule
Starting point is 00:18:11 okay okay how about that there are there are all the movies that's actually been a whole fucking thing that i've always wanted to do or but i'll never get to because it's just so much to think of imagine a theater can ryan put them put your mind to it a theater that has like 10 theaters within or let's let's be more reasonable six theaters four out of the four out of the six show whatever you're showing but then you can also rent out the other two and see whatever you want or in the other two rooms or the other two theaters it's like vote on which movie gets played type of thing i i like the whole thing of having a theater that doesn't and this exists i'm sure but i don't see that many of them and we could theme it out wonderfully like a theater that doesn't show anything new it's all
Starting point is 00:18:58 like movies that have like we could play daddy daddy daycare we could we could play top gun we could play pretty much what i'm going for is like any bad 2000s movie or like go to the classics of jaws just like when you would walk down an island yeah yeah and it would have that vibe so you'd see you'd be watching a lot of retro stuff that's very nostalgic and it can that nostalgia never goes out of business because everything's becoming nostalgic as time goes on look at doug walker dude i i really i do i do have such an affinity for him for doug walker i do too man like i can't not smile when i'm watching a nostalgic critic episode it's just he's he's he's nailed it to where it's not like, you know how there's that stark contrast between like, there's a difference between cringe and it's not endearing.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's very wholesome and endearing. And he you can just tell. endearing and he you can just tell i love watching the behind the scenes because they actually write out scripts and they treat it like it's a short film where they have like okay he makes movies and he like directs it and stuff he's made movies right and actually i saw linkara was on twitter recently i think he might have been talking some shit about those movies really linkara linkara yeahara, what are you doing? The Japan vlogs will be done when they're done.
Starting point is 00:20:30 There's no set release date. Fuckers. Speaking of Linkara, actually, I just want to say thank you to everyone for... Uh-oh. Sorry. I want to say thanks to everyone. Ryan and I would like to thank you all for the wonderful feedback on our E3 2019 video. Because, you know, we don't put out live action as much as we'd like.
Starting point is 00:20:55 But when we do, the response is always overwhelming. Yeah. With positivity and support. And we want to definitely thank all of you for for throwing us that those good old laughs and smiles i think what i like the most it really made my day i like i like it when people joke around in the comments i like it when people do whatever they do but i think the thing that i like the most is when people tell me what made them laugh in the video like this part made me laugh because i like oh yeah specifically i what i liked what we did in this release is i i
Starting point is 00:21:27 really enjoyed uh watching it live with people i did too i i loved watching like the chat freak out at different parts because i in my head i would know what's coming up and i'd be like oh i want to see how they react to this but i would see uh i think i think i i know i've heard premiere videos usually get less views on the initial send out, but I really do like the experience. And I would I think that's how I like putting out live action. I'm down to do that. If there's if there's that much of of like a difference in terms of the views, I'd like to look into that a little more. But I like the experience of like having like 2000,000 people in a chat room like freaking out
Starting point is 00:22:05 well we had like 3,000 something and we didn't even tell people it was just like hey we're gonna drop something soon and then we dropped it I put the link on twitter like 5 seconds before it went live I was like uh oh and the countdown's what like 2 minutes yeah it's 2 minutes but I had to type
Starting point is 00:22:21 the link out manually on twitter like by looking at it on the URL, because I was using my phone. And then I couldn't fucking, there was, like, an L or a capital I or, like, a one in the URL, and I kept fucking it up. I was like, fuck, fuck. But seriously, guys, like, you guys made our entire weekend, because we just felt, you guys, what you said about the video was so nice.
Starting point is 00:22:43 And we had a blast making that one. We actually have one more E3 video on the way. We have some stuff that we cut out. Just because when you're editing a lot of stuff, you can't keep everything in. It's like you wish you could keep everything in, but you can't just because you want it to flow a certain way. You want it to feel a certain way. But we do have behind the scenes stuff on our Patreon. A ha-ha self-promotion. to feel a certain way, but we do have, uh, behind the scenes stuff, uh, on our Patreon, a ha ha self promotion.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Um, so for those who are subscribed to our Patreon and you don't have notifications turned on or whatever, thanks a lot guys. Go check out the, uh, Patreon because we do have, uh,
Starting point is 00:23:17 behind the scenes and we do have another E3 video coming out soon with more, uh, behind the scenes like Patreon content. So yeah, for, for our patrons, we want to thank you for continuously supporting us and being so nice.
Starting point is 00:23:29 Yeah, you guys are wonderful. And I really think people are going to be surprised by the next E3 video that's coming out. I think I like, it's definitely shorter, but I think I like the narrative and I like it more. It's weird. Just personally, because I like doing, I'm not going to say what it is, but it's in the same vein as those types of videos that we do with like the
Starting point is 00:23:48 kangaroo jack thing where it's more of just like a fun video yeah uh no no spoil I don't want to spoil anything there's some there's some names in it you'll be you'll be you'll be a little surprised you'll be like what the fuck also everyone kind of glossed over the fact that we got Hector Zeroni in our first E3 video that was actually him that was legitimately him even like we i think i sung a little holes in the last animal crossing episodes we recorded and it didn't spur my mind to bring up the fact that we met hector zeroni yeah what is his name cleo thomas i think like so we were he's a super nice he was so nice I feel bad that, because when we went up to him, Harrison has the ice cream all over his mouth. And Matt, we're all, you know, Matt's all greasy.
Starting point is 00:24:32 And I have that fucking ponytail wearing my slides with jeans. Your Fortnite Christian shirt. And like, we look like the biggest fucking losers. And he's hanging out with his friends. Who all seem like really like down to earth cool people. Like real chill dudes. And then, you know, he's probably just with his friends who all seem like really like down-to-earth cool like real chill dudes and then you know he's probably just enjoying his e3 and i guarantee the last like i'm sure to him it's like oh being recognized in front of my friends is cool but not by these there's certain people it's like he doesn't want to be recognized it's like embarrassing white dumbasses so i come up and i was like hey are you were you in holes and he was like yeah yeah yeah and i was like oh no way man can we get a picture with you real quick and I was like, hey, are you, were you in holes? And he was like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:05 And I was like, oh, no way, man. Can we get a picture with you real quick? And he's like, sure. And we actually shot a little video with him for the thing, but our microphone was off. Of course. Thanks, God. So we just had to, we had to make do with what we had. There was actually a lot of good shit, but the microphone got turned off.
Starting point is 00:25:21 So we had to scrap a bunch of good shit. We interviewed. You interviewed a gamer girl? I did interview a gamer girl it was incredibly uncomfortable. We had Chester Cheddarburger interview Pam Horton who she's been on. Pamela Horton the wonderful gracious Pamela Horton who's been on the podcast
Starting point is 00:25:36 before. She has. We had Chester interview her. Chester interviewed a lot of gamer girls and was asking them if they thought he was cute and everyone unanimously said yes. Yes. We didn't get to keep the Rick and Morty girl. There was a girl cosplaying from Rick and Morty.
Starting point is 00:25:52 It was such a perfect interview. She wouldn't drop character. Which made it awkward with Chester Cheddarburger. Because it's two characters trying to talk to each other. It was so good but then it's just one of the interviews that unfortunately didn't have audio. There's also there's several interviews you
Starting point is 00:26:08 got as your character in the Fortnite area. What was the question? I interviewed that dude because I was nice to Fish Sticks and I was like Oh you were doing the Fish Sticks joke. I was like do you like Fish Sticks? And he was like sure and I was like That's when people would react. You're like you watch South Park right? They're like yeah I've seen some.
Starting point is 00:26:23 Funny. It's funny. And there was this one influencer. We got a video of me like, so there was this influencer that kind of looked like a Team 10 guy, like real, takes himself way too seriously. People give off certain vibes. Yeah, like he's got his little like entourage with him of like rich looking, like douchey white kids. And I walk up as noob dudeob dude and i was like hey could i interview you real quick and he was like no no not a chance and like bolted away like bolted off and
Starting point is 00:26:52 his like entourage was like give me all these looks like get out of here dude and i was like okay well you're also being filmed by a dude in slides with a ponytail yeah so well the slides don't really matter that much it's the fact that I was wearing jeans with him. He looks like one of those influencers, like, you know, those Instagram, and I'm going to put this in air quotes, models that have like 11,000 followers, but think that they are like the most important shit on the planet. That and the funniest. Yeah. Like that dude, what was his name?
Starting point is 00:27:18 Christian something. Remember that guy? Weekly Chris. No, no, no. Not Weekly Chris. He's a good one though. The guy from VidCon what about VidCon remember the guy that was the Instagram model went to VidCon and
Starting point is 00:27:29 he yelled at the security guard and someone for him yes but but he like and then the security guard ended up getting more followers them yeah because he thought he was like the most important dude he looked like one of those guys okay and I wish I did I would he was one of those guys yeah and I wish I had known who he was you shouldn't have looked like a loser Damn that was my fault if I just looked cooler Maybe he would have accepted me So again thank y'all for the response
Starting point is 00:27:52 Of the video We are actually Here's a little update on the Japan Videos Oh yeah let's give a real official update Because I know we've been goofing on it on Twitter And stuff a lot We are.
Starting point is 00:28:05 Believe it or not, we will be dropping the first one within the next few weeks. The first video, it's just like we want to make sure we have everything in line. It's a lot of footage. The reason why it's taking us so long is because we don't want to edit one and then go months again without editing one. So we're
Starting point is 00:28:21 trying to set it up so that we edit all of them and then we can release one a week. Yeah. For the entire, the, the ideal plan, like a specific time on a specific day,
Starting point is 00:28:32 uh, every week, every week for like several weeks for like a little over a month. Yeah. That's, that's the plan. Um, and then even after the Japan vlogs finished releasing,
Starting point is 00:28:43 we, we have some more live action videos already queued up that we have to finish editing that should be coming out shortly after. And in this whole process, we're going to try to shoot some more. So we're trying to really put more focus, like we said, now that we're on our own from Grumps and everything. And because of the support from Patreon, we want to put more focus on the live action. And we want you guys to see that we're doing that. And it's our favorite stuff to produce like doing that e3 video like really reminded me how much fun it is to go out and shoot and edit it and watch like like i feel so proud when we make
Starting point is 00:29:15 live action like i'm so proud of like what we a lot of bits that i like and i'm remember like it i get memories of the good time of filming and all that stuff and i think what really shows is like when you and i are done with it when you and i are completely done because when it comes to live action videos like this and particularly where it's like that it's more of a it's a bigger idea than just a regular vlog that we do um so we we swap it back and forth and then we'll come together and be in the same place for a few hours and just watch it over and over again and be like oh we need to add that no take that silence it's like we we try to hone it in yeah we'll like sit there and which which we want to do with the japan videos too silence. It's like we try to hone it in. Yeah, we'll like sit there. Which we want to do with the Japan videos too.
Starting point is 00:30:07 Because kind of with the Japan videos, like I'm taking... What, did you hear that? They're church bells? Do you hear the church bells? What's that coming from? What the hell is that? That was the ProJared theme on church bells. Wait.
Starting point is 00:30:25 Is our Animal Crossing town on? Wait a second. The speakers are on, but the TV's not. No, no, no. Turn the TV on. How? Because I just heard the ProJared theme song. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Hit LCD display. Hit another one, and then go back to Wii. Was that? Dude, I'm so confused, guys. We're sitting, we're sitting here talking. Yes, it is. Okay, our Animal Crossing town is, the TV was off, but the speaker's on. And we didn't realize our Animal Crossing town was playing.
Starting point is 00:31:02 And all of a sudden we heard ProJared's theme song just play over church bells. And we were like, what the hell is that? Man, I want to play some Animal Crossing now. He doesn't like us right now. That's fine. That's okay. He's allowed to not like. I mean, we've ragged on him a bit. Yeah. Rightfully so, but...
Starting point is 00:31:20 It's odd because we don't like... Here's the thing. We don't like feeding drama at all, but sometimes it's odd because we don't like here's the thing we don't like feeding drama at all but sometimes it's nice to take little it's like they're fun little like shots like the thing with Dr. Disrespect in the bathroom we have no ill feelings
Starting point is 00:31:37 towards well I won't say about Progenitor but people like Dr. Disrespect it's like nothing against the guy it's just kind of funny he's just cheating on his wife that is true when there's like public controversy it's like not nothing against the guy it's just kind of funny like cheating on his wife that is true when there's like public controversy it's fun to kind of take like uh innocent little pod shots at it yeah i don't want to ever like start actual shit with we're never we're never stoking the flames or sending people after anyone i mean like what what do we do with the good old boy jared here we we put here? We put his intro music at the beginning of a podcast and put his logo in a video.
Starting point is 00:32:09 But that's pretty much it. Also, one thing about the E3 video, every comment was like saying that it was about Jared. It was actually, it's kind of just that whole genre. It wasn't specifically about him. And it actually was more about someone else, a very old. Which we don't want to like. Yeah, I'm not going to name. We're not going to target directly...
Starting point is 00:32:25 We're not going to target them, but... But those who know, know. Yeah. It's... I think the voice is what sells it. It was more... It was inspired by someone, mainly by someone else. But in general, it's the whole encompassing of those...
Starting point is 00:32:37 That genre. You know, with Angry Video Game Nerd. Which I love Angry Video Game Nerd, because, like, people were like... He's in the same boat as a nostalgia critic for me. Exactly, because, like, I saw people thinking I was making fun of Angry Video Game Nerd because people were like... He's in the same boat as a nostalgia critic for me. Exactly, because I saw people thinking I was making fun of Angry Video Game Nerd. It's like, yo, I actually love Angry Video Game Nerd and I have a lot of respect for that boy. So I don't want to... Again, Dan.
Starting point is 00:32:55 Danny! No, no, no. No, Danny. Get your ass in here. Get in here. What is it, guys? We can boost our views by 50% again. That's true.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Oh, my God. That ties your friends. Oh, shit, buddy. What's up? Special guest, Dan. I have to... Oh man, I'd love to hang out, but I have to eat this sandwich. And you thought you could eat it in here and we're...
Starting point is 00:33:12 Quietly, yeah. Dan, if you want to sit in the middle and eat the sandwich quietly, that's totally fine. But if you also want your alone time, which I get because you don't always want to be on in a character like I am right now. It's a living hell. Do you want to... You can go into like I am right now. It's a living hell. Do you want to... You can go into the room over. Yeah. Tell you what, I'll eat this sandwich
Starting point is 00:33:29 and if I have any time between the completion of this sandwich and the beginning of the 10-minute power hour, I'll wander in here for 10 minutes and chill with you. But only if it's not at the expense of your mental health. Don't worry, dude. Like, take it easy, man. I would kill for some of that sandwich, by the way. I'm not asking for it. I'm just putting that out man. I would kill for some of that sandwich by the way. I'm not asking for it, I'm just putting that out there.
Starting point is 00:33:46 I would kill for some private silence eating a sandwich and watching YouTube videos. Just, ugh, just fucking five minutes. I'm not glorious with that. That sounds so good. But uh, you have a good day. If you don't, see you later on. I love you guys. Damn, real quick. Ryan and I have actually, neither of us, eaten a single bite of food today. Cool. Um, not that I'm asking for any of us, eaten a single bite of food today.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Not that I'm asking for any of the sandwich. I was just letting you know. Yeah, it's just a fact. So I hope you enjoy it. No, thanks. It's good. Do you have two sandwiches right there actually? No.
Starting point is 00:34:15 To maintain my weight, I'm supposed to eat about 2600 calories a day and I haven't even had one calorie today. Wow. You know, for me to gain weight, Dan, I need to be eating 3000 a day. I forgot to take my daily vitamins as well, so I'm feeling pretty lightheaded. I will say that, like, there's a large amount of sandwiches in the break room. And if you guys were to, even just to take one and split it amongst yourselves just so you would have enough vitamins to survive. Well, Dan, those are Game Grumps sandwiches and Aaron fired us, so we can't have those.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Aaron didn't fire you. What are you talking about? Aaron wanted you to stay around forever You guys got too god damn big for your riches Matt, Matt, Matt You'll just cut where he said he didn't fire us I'll cut it so he goes Aaron fired you
Starting point is 00:34:58 Just kidding it was Brent Alright Too bad he didn't give us any of his delicious New Jersey Michael sub Yeah fuck him. I have to pee pee. I gotta pee too. Let's go. You wanna pee break?
Starting point is 00:35:08 Pee break! It's time for some ad reads! It's time for some ad reads! We took a bathroom break, which you guys didn't even notice. Well, I did exclaim that I'm gonna pee, or I wanna pee. So if you left that in... God, I'm actually sorry. I need to stop burping on mic, because I know it really upsets some people. You know what's actually pretty good?
Starting point is 00:35:29 What? That I, uh, I think I talked about this, but I just wanna make sure people try it. You heat up some milk, and you put in a little bit of honey. Yeah, you do. And you stir it, and it's a delicious snack. Oh, whoa, speaking of honey! Let's talk about something we can all agree on. Saving money.
Starting point is 00:35:48 Honey is a free. Tucker, we said interrupt the podcast, but you're interrupting the ad read. We didn't say interrupt. Tucker, you're interrupting the one part that companies are paying for. They don't want. Tucker, you can interrupt any part of the rest of the hour, but not the ad reads. You guys are in here, and I'm just trying to get stuff because it's. Sorry. Sorry, honey. I apologize. apologize honey we love you as a company we we really support you i i hope our fans support you uh let me uh let me matt made me uh not made me but his when i say make it's made is such a violent like definitive just i had a gun in your head the reason i say it is because it's so good
Starting point is 00:36:26 that it's just an absolute he had he had i had to do it so he made me get it because it was 100 like a site like like brand deal aside like it's before they sponsors i used honey it's actually great and let me tell you a little bit about honey okay it's a free browser extension that scans the web for coupon codes and discounts while you shop online. Honey automatically applies the biggest savings to your car to checkout, like magic. It works on over 20,000 sites like Amazon, Nordstrom, J.Crew, Nike, Best Buy, Target, Macy's, and more. It takes zero effort to install. They're serious about that one. Just two clicks, and you'll start saving anytime you shop online.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Oh, yeah, Matt, prove it. What have you saved money on? Let me tell you something. saving anytime you shop online. Oh yeah, Matt, prove it. What have you saved money on? Let me tell you something. Actually, we were ordering a bunch of stuff for the Super Megaplex recently,
Starting point is 00:37:09 and Honey saved us, no joke, several hundred dollars because we had such a big order of equipment we had to get. Thank you, patrons, by the way, for helping us fund this. But Honey saved us so much money. I can't remember the exact amount, but I remember I was like blown away. And there's no reason not to use it. It's literally just free money. And I know you're thinking, you're like, okay, but what's the catch? Like, why would there be a product that saves me money? Well, Ryan,
Starting point is 00:37:33 let's talk about that catch. There is none. When you use a coupon provided by Honey, they earn a small commission from the merchant and they pass along some of the savings to their members. So it's a win-win for everybody. That's the catch. Let's not forget other people who have also liked Honey, Matt. Like Thomas Wolfe, who says, they call it honey because of all of them sweet deals with a honey pot. And let's talk about Irene, for instance, who says, I totally thought honey was a scam,
Starting point is 00:37:59 but I just got $300 worth of bathing suits for $180. Jesus Christ! Good job, Irene. Guess what? Don't take it from us. Take it from our listeners. Get Honey for free at joinhoney.com slash megacast. That's joinhoney.com slash megacast.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Honey. Online savings. Simplified. Actually, uh, speaking of porn, um, this next ad read goes out to all you, out to all you guys and gals who... I'll just get on with the ad read. The title of this ad read is literally titled Porn. Well, let's get on with it.
Starting point is 00:38:38 Internet privacy is basically dead. Look at porn, for instance. Did you know that the UK government passed a law requiring you to hand over your ID before you can access porn sites? That's stupid. That's legit. I didn't know that. That's legit. I hate that. That's right Matt. It is stupid because it's like handing over your driver's license or passport to access porn. It's only a matter of time before your government gets the same idea. And what happens when your favorite porn sites get hacked like Ashley Madison? No! How can you cheat on your spouse then? All those names and IDs

Starting point is 00:40:12 And then you can watch Porn in Peace, guys. Bye. You can leave now. Tucker's been very cautiously not opening the door to interrupt. You can do it now. Make sure your ad was quality. Thank you. The ad was quality.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Did you like it? Did you think it was? I might as well purchase the product. The product? Yeah. Good. I mean, usually if you start something with a high-pitched thing, it means that you're subconsciously pulling the app.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Yeah. Well. By Tucker. Okay. You think Danny's still going to come in? No. No, I don't think he. I think he was just trying to people-please with that statement.
Starting point is 00:40:44 I don't think he's actually gonna do does he know that like the jokes we make about him on super mega if he did i don't think he'd be as nice to us yeah that's true but like you said i think he doesn't have a twitter the the thing you said also where it's like if if the you know almost 40 year old man gets mad almost... Is he? He's 39, right? I thought his birthday was this year at some point. Didn't we all go celebrate his birthday? I was not there. Not like went out and
Starting point is 00:41:14 celebrated, but wasn't there a thing in the office? I don't know. Ryan's like, I don't know, because all of a sudden he's realizing he wasn't invited to that shit. Shit, shit, shit. I like what you said on on one episode you're like if the if the 40 year old man uh is mad that we're putting him in a hypothetical diaper uh then then like that it was just so funny to me um i'm gonna give a music recommendation uh
Starting point is 00:41:38 the the song is called thy mission by the garden featuring mac demarco the music video is really cool i showed showed Ryan the music video yesterday. It's the one that's like... It was good. It's almost like a Mari type show, like Jerry Springer. It's like what the music video is. Very good. Harry showed it to me. I always feel kind of bad
Starting point is 00:41:57 because a lot of the music I do share, I get from Harry and I feel like I'm stealing it from him. But Harrison has such a good music taste. I do take a lot of songs from him when he shows them to me, and I'm like, damn, this is good. So thank you, Harry, for all the good music. And bad news, guys, we will not be at Anime Expo 2019.
Starting point is 00:42:17 We were trying to get passes, but we cannot get passes, unfortunately. Did I tell you that, or is this the first time you're finding this out? This is the first time I'm finding this out. Shit, I apologize. So no Anime Expo. I found out yesterday we can't do Anime Expo. Because we weren't going to get a booth anyway. But we were going to go with passes and maybe shoot something.
Starting point is 00:42:34 But nope. Oh, well. No passes. Maybe someone could sneak us in. Yeah. Hit us up. Sneak us in. Please.
Starting point is 00:42:41 But yeah, dude. You know what I'm saying? No. Why don't you know what I'm saying no why don't you know what i'm saying because what are you saying also uh sorry that we've been kind of slow on like completing series lately it's because we have three going on right now and okay let's let's we can give a reason for each week let's be honest and open um in terms of completing a series we're in the middle of three separate series right now. One series, don't expect it to end until next year
Starting point is 00:43:08 when the new Animal Crossing comes out, essentially. Because I could just talk over that forever. I could keep, honestly, as long as people are enjoying it. I love recording it, too. It's very chill. I'm surprised because usually if we do a long series, views really start to dip off. And I don't want to base everything on the views where it's like, oh, sorry, we're going to stop this series because we're not getting views.
Starting point is 00:43:27 But, like, it is important. It's an important thing to take, like, into consideration. But the fact that it's our longest series, we've done, like, 34 episodes now. And it still has great views. Still great views. It's like, wow, I'm down to keep doing this because I love it. It's my favorite game. At the same time, there are series like Sekiro who don't have as good views,
Starting point is 00:43:45 but we are going to finish. Yeah. The thing that's keeping me from going on in it right now on the channel is because when we come in to record, it's like one, we have a,
Starting point is 00:43:58 for the next episode that we record wouldn't be the finale, but we have an idea for the finale that would require us. It has to be at a specific time and we have to make sure it comes together right i can't i don't want to spoil it but also the episodes before that um it's just a very difficult optional boss fight and it's just like oh my god do i i just know that we're going to be recording we're going to be recording for like an hour to an hour and a half to get two episodes out. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Because I just know that boss is going to give me trouble because he always has. I do want to finish it though. I'm very excited. We are going to finish it. We're so close to finishing it. SpongeBob has just been slow just because. But we do plan on finishing that game. And also-
Starting point is 00:44:39 We got good progress in last time. We do. We do apologize because we have been kind of shit with uploads lately. There's been several skip days. We've been uploading late and uh we're fully aware of that and uh that's not going to continue it's just right now with setting up the super megaplex we did the e3 video took a good bit because we went to e3 every pretty much every day and there's a day that uh we filmed that that video still hasn't been released yet because we're still working on it.
Starting point is 00:45:06 Like we were talking about earlier. But for real. Yeah. Like, like. You're in my throat, baby. I just don't want people to be like, oh, they're on their own now. And now they're like, I thought they were going to be uploading more. It's like, like we said, just give us time.
Starting point is 00:45:17 Give us this summer to get, to get our ducks in a row, to get our office set up. We're still like, just because we have the super megap Megaplex right now doesn't mean everything's set up. It takes a while for equipment to be sent. Well, not stuff that we get off of Amazon, but certain equipment does take a while because it has to be made specifically. Like our recording computers
Starting point is 00:45:38 and our editing computers and stuff like that. We got them ordered over a while ago. And they have to be custom built and they won't be ready until like sometime in July. And we're like, well, great, sweet. And because also it's tricky for us to backlog a ton because, you know, we're still using the Game Grumps space. Aaron was nice enough to let us do that.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Thank you, Aaron. But the problem is, you know, they're really busy too and they have to be using this space a lot. So we have to work our schedule around when we can use it when they're not using it. And we're so busy editing. We're just thankful they're allowing us to use this because if they didn't, we couldn't really release as good quality because we'd still record stuff. But it would be like in the good old days where we'd have to set up something probably over at my place, I'd imagine. I've also been busy. Sucking this dick.
Starting point is 00:46:29 Yeah. Yeah. I've been a little busy with that, but luckily it doesn't take too long. But I've been, the last week and a half, I've been working real hard on a little personal project with someone, which you guys will see soon. I'm very excited about that. It's a really beautiful, like, interpretive dance. And I can't wait.
Starting point is 00:46:44 Don't spoil it, dude. Come on. I'm very excited about that it's a really beautiful like interpretive dance and I can't wait don't spoil it dude I'm sorry I'm sorry and then uh but he's gonna you're I don't want to spoil too much but you're gonna perform it
Starting point is 00:46:51 live on stage right we're gonna sell tickets and shit okay okay I'm sorry speaking of selling tickets we're going on tour in Texas that's right
Starting point is 00:46:57 probably going to be our last tour of 2019 16th 17th 16th 17th and 18th 19th
Starting point is 00:47:03 oh 19th yeah I fucked it up in the original poster 16th, 17th, 19th we're gonna be in Houston we're gonna be in Austin and we're gonna be in Dallas, Texas doing live shows and this one's gonna be real good, very excited for these
Starting point is 00:47:16 probably like we said our last tour of 2019 just cause we need to mellow out and focus on the channel and Patreon a bit and we've already done three tours this year up to this. But I do like touring. And we're going to tour more in 2020. We hear you, Midwest.
Starting point is 00:47:33 We hear you guys crying out for us. Probably not 2019, but maybe one day. And all those people that are like, but I'm not 18. I can't come to the show. If we do it in 2020, then some of you guys will be 18. You can come to the show. So it all works in 2020, then some of you guys will be 18. You can come to the show. So it all works out. I'm excited to go to Texas though.
Starting point is 00:47:49 Super fun tour. Don killed the poster. Tickets should be on sale now, actually. And again, thank you to everyone who has come to a live show before, whether it's the local ones
Starting point is 00:47:58 that we've done around LA or the tours that we've been on. Like seriously, every single person who came who did a meet and greet who just showed up who supported us in any way with those live shows thank you every single fucking
Starting point is 00:48:13 one of you same to every patron I wish we could like no fuck them yeah fuck y'all I wish we could like you moochers every patron I wish there's a way to like something about calling people who legitimately pay for content moochers I wish we could like thank every patron but I wish there's a way to like Something about calling people who legitimately pay for content moochers. I wish we could like thank every patron. But there's just too many.
Starting point is 00:48:32 We don't have the time. But we actually, we do respond to messages on Patreon. We're slow about it, but like if you are a patron, shoot us a message. We do try to respond to as many of them as we can. So maybe become a patron, shoot us a message. We do try to respond to as many of them as we can. So maybe become a patron.
Starting point is 00:48:50 You can talk to the board. It's the only way. Pay for it. But yeah, and we also like, we've been just doing a lot of planning for the future. This whole undertaking of getting the office and setting up has been uh and still is and will continue to be extraordinarily expensive um like more than we thought which luckily like
Starting point is 00:49:15 the success of patreon has really helped out with that um and it's just like just know it's coming it's coming it don't don't think we're just on our own now and just sitting on our, on our thumbs, you know, twiddling our, our penises. Yeah. We do that some.
Starting point is 00:49:30 We're also doing a side stuff. Yeah. You, Matt, I'm excited for this because I asked him for one of the hats, but I want a new one because I'm a selfish little brat. Absolutely. I want the slime one.
Starting point is 00:49:42 That's my favorite one. He's doing his, he's this weekend. We's doing his, he's, this weekend, we are going to be at a Game Grumps garage sale type thing. It's like a pop-up shop.
Starting point is 00:49:49 And as well as selling Super Mega merch, this Saturday and Sunday, we're going to be at the Game Grumps garage sale thing where Matt will be for the first time
Starting point is 00:49:59 premiering his triangle guy. I don't have a name for him yet. Somehow still, I haven't come up with a good name, so I'm actually selling them at this thing, I guess like as a test run. But there will be a lot of Super Mega merch there,
Starting point is 00:50:12 but it'll be fun, yeah. It'll be a real fun little time. And you guys have just been so lovely and supportive lately, like since we left Grumps, and just in general. But you guys have just been so fucking nice, and just seeing all the messages, all the DMs, all the tweets, just like in common saying how you guys are like proud of us
Starting point is 00:50:32 and which is nothing but the best. It really warms our hearts. And we hope that everyone out there.
