Introducing Tim's new Savory Pinwheels.
The perfect flaky and flavorful snack for those on the go.
Like me, who's recording this while snacking.
Ooh, delicious.
Try the roasted red pepper and Swiss or caramelized onion and parmesan pinwheels only at Tim's.
At participating restaurants in Canada for a limited time.
Fuck fleas, man. I hate them.
I hate seeing them.
Fleas?
Yes. I have ten in a Tupperware and I just...
Because I put soap in water
and
it's their little
jail cell
the Ryan McGee
private prison
if I find one on Lego
or if I find one
I just fucking take it
and I put it in there
and I watch it suffer
and then I
and then sometimes
I take some soap
and I glop it on top of it
and then I watch it
with the soap
sink down to the bottom
struggling
that little fucker.
I have a prison of currently 10 inmates of fleas.
So Ryan, you got a private prison going.
I do.
Dude, I hate fleas.
When I was a kid, when my pets would get fleas.
I blame you, Matt.
Why are you blaming me?
It's that one flea.
I've had no fleas at my house.
That infested my whole house.
It's that one flea on that kitten.
The timing is questionable.
Because it was literally the day after where I noticed the fleas.
We haven't had any flea problems, though.
We were the one with six cats.
Yeah, because I took the problem for you.
You took the one flea.
I took the one flea away.
I used to catch fleas and put them in a Ziploc bag.
It's funny you're doing this because I did the same thing where I'd be like,
fuck these fleas, and I'd take them off my cats,
and I'd put them in a Ziploc bag
and be like, ha ha ha. But they bite your
ankles throughout the day. They suck, dude.
I have like flea bites fucking, because they last
for like 10 years.
The flea bites. Oh, not literally
10 years, but they last for a long time.
You know, they'll last for like a week. I have
like a collar
on Lego, which is supposed to help. It's like
a Seresto collar. I use the back ointment, but I still find some fle supposed to help. It's like a Seresto collar.
I use the back ointment, but I still find some fleas on them.
It's like, why is it these fleas are just,
I feel like I've run into a new clan of fleas.
Like they're the gorillas of fleas.
Feed him asbestos.
That's actually supposed to help a lot.
But I don't recall this being the flea episode.
I don't think it is, actually.
I recall episode 199 as promised being the poo-poo episode.
Yes, it is.
So, here's the sound of a nice poo-poo to start it off.
Welcome to the poo-poo episode, everyone.
If you remember in episode 198, we had a lot of very serious, real discussions, so we promised that episode 199 would be the poo-poo episode to balance it out, right?
So welcome, everybody.
Hope that you've all been having a good week, a good day, a good evening, whenever you're
listening to this.
Even if it's the year 2026, you can still enjoy the poo-poo episode.
Exactly.
Ryan, put another sound effect in.
Oh, where?
Just here.
Oh.
That was nice. Fill the episode with that. Every now and then, I'll probably throw one here. Oh. That was nice.
Fill the episode with that.
Every now and then I'll probably throw one in.
It's the poo-poo episode.
We've had two podcasts in a row talking about very serious topics.
And it's time to get back to our roots, guys.
And I feel like people need a break from the darkness.
That's the thing is, you know, we'll talk about serious stuff, stuff that's very important to us and very important in the world.
But at the same time, hey.
You got to have that poo-poo.
You got to have that poo-poo.
It's what we built our channel on.
It is.
We wouldn't be super mega without having some poo-poo episodes.
In fact, for the special YouTube viewers, unfortunately, early Spotify users won't be able to enjoy this.
Here's a picture of some poo-poo.
Oh!
YouTube viewers are looking at it right now going,
damn, these Spotify viewers, these Apple podcast viewers are jealous.
Sure, y'all got it early, but do y'all get to see the poo-poo?
Nope.
I don't think so.
Nope, sorry.
That's just too bad.
Go home and tell dad.
I'm moving on from poo-poo just for a little bit.
Don't worry.
I'm going to come back to the poo-poo.
Okay.
I encountered the most ridiculous bullshit earlier this morning because, so, you know,
I have a website.
I have MattHWatson.com, but I've never particularly loved the username Matt H. Watson because
it's a little confusing with that H in there.
People think it's Matthew Watson.
How do you think I feel?
Eli Rye McGee?
Well, yours is very down to the points.
Eli Rye McGee. Yeah, but people are
like, I don't know how to pronounce it. Mine's like
Matthew Rye McGee. Like, they try to do that thing.
People always think it's Math Watson. Ah.
Or Matthew missing the E. Because basically, it's just
Matthew Watson combined without the E.
I wish I just had Matt Watson.
Or I wish I actually just had At Matt. And I DM'd
the guy that owns it. And I was like,
hey man, what a...
You got a price? There's no way he's giving up At Matt. Well, I asked him for a price and he was like hey man what uh you got a price there's no way he's
giving up at matt well i asked him like for a price he's like considering i've turned down
people with requests of 25 000 uh is this guy like famous no dude i dude if i wasn't like as
comfortable as i am working on youtube and i was like still in South Carolina working at a food line or something, I would 100%
give up my at for $25,000.
I don't know why
he wouldn't. Maybe it's a prize. No hate
to the dude because it's a good username.
If he wants to keep it, he can keep it. But he was like,
considering I've turned down offers at $25,000,
I don't know. Is he on Twitter right now?
Can you DM him and say, listen, can we just
start a bully campaign?
No, don't. Do not. Do not.
Do not.
He's just living his life.
He's a nice dude.
And he's probably going to message Matt after this about it.
What the hell, man?
Anyway, I wanted to get...
I can't tell if this guy has a mustache or not.
It's like going or...
You can't tell if it's coming or going?
You see what I mean?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Is that Matt?
Is that at Matt? I think ever since you tried to i mean uh yeah yeah yeah is that matt is that i think
ever since you tried to do the mustache he was trying to copy you i think so he's actually he
started a new gaming channel called hyper mega and i'm getting a little upset did he yeah no he
didn't wish um well and he uh he is the matt though and i would i would kill it you know it
would it would undo my verification if i changed my name, but I would do it for just to have at Matt.
Uh-oh.
What?
What?
I'm looking at his description, and one of the links is at some company, but it says account suspended.
Does he need to be canceled?
We ruined his life just so I can get the username. does he need to be cancelled we ruin this dude's life
just so I can get the username
we crush him financially with debt in court cases
until like he has to take the money
and it's only like 100 bucks
I swear to god if he sends like a harassment lawsuit
over this
do not antagonize at Matt
so we can play this part in court
do not antagonize at Matt on Twitter.
We have no copability.
It's just a subject on our podcast.
He's probably a fucking amazing dude with hopes and dreams.
He's probably already loaded because if he's turning down 25 grand for a Twitter handle.
Well, he works with several companies.
One of them is called at Fun Kids.
Really?
Yeah.
It's a children's radio for the UK. Fun Kids. Nationwide. Oh. Fun Kids. Really? Yeah. It's a children's radio for the UK.
Fun Kids.
Nationwide.
Oh.
Fun Kids Junior.
He's British.
Yes.
That explains it.
All right.
Well, no, but I know there's going to be-
They have Minions and Taylor Swift.
Is that Shawn Mendes?
That looks like one of those-
I'm going to be honest.
That looks like one of those fake-
Is that Shawn Mendes?
I don't know.
Who is this?
I don't know what Shawn Mendes looks like.
How do I?
That's at Matt. That's Matt. I'm going to look up Shawn Mendes. Shawn Mendes? I don't know. Who is this? I don't know what Shawn Mendes looks like. How do I? That's at Matt.
That's Matt.
I'm going to look up Shawn Mendes.
I think that he, that looks like one of those fake like Elsa gate things.
Well, it's not.
It's a real company.
Anyway, I know there's that group of fans that are like.
This doesn't look like Shawn Mendes.
That's not Shawn Mendes.
I'll throw up the picture.
That's an old white man.
I'll throw up the picture on YouTube.
That's the real Shawn Mendes. throw up the picture on YouTube Fuck you Spotify
No but they're
Just kidding
No no no
There really are some kids
That are gonna go
And DM him some stupid shit
Don't
I'm serious
That just makes me look bad
Don't do that
Well we're gonna troll Matt
And do it anyway
Okay
Well the other Matt knows
That I don't condone that
Anyway
And I don't condone it
Oh
As well
Cause he's gonna come after the company Not the person Brent Lilly actually Was the one that gave us the idea The other Matt knows that I don't condone that. Anyway. And I don't condone it as well.
Because he's going to come after the company, not the person.
Brent Lilly actually was the one that gave us the idea of Game Grumps Incorporated.
So take all legal matters up with that company.
Game Grumps Incorporated.
Don't you have to name it like an incorporated thing?
You don't have to.
The incorporated comes afterwards.
Why did we do that?
Super Mega Productions Incorporated?
Well, I think the incorporated is just put there right because it is and just like something something llc like smash llc got it got it got it um but
the reason i brought this whole thing up is because i have matt h watson.com and i wanted
just matt watson.com because i don't want to be confusing so i'm going to try to someone else
have this website well someone parked it right parked Oh, like bought it and was like, ha, ha, ha.
Yeah.
So it's a very, actually, it's a very lucrative business of parking domains.
Rooster Teeth, the people that, like the main guys that people would think of early Rooster Teeth,
that's essentially what they did.
They like took a bunch of kind of just generic names like Let's Plays and just websites with a general name.
And they'd sell them to people who would want those websites.
It was its own kind of market.
That's the thing.
It's like, oh, I can buy chickennoodles.com and I bought it for $8.
And then eventually some company is going to want it and I can sell it for $35,000.
But the person who owns mattwatson.com didn't want 35 000 you know how
much they wanted for mattwatson.com how much one million dollars one million one million dollars
i got the email back this morning i was like are you fucking kidding me i have a feeling one million
dollars i think it's a middle schooler that bought the website for like two bucks and thinks that
you're rich because you work on YouTube?
I think that they didn't actually have an offer.
I think what they did was they looked up my name and they were like,
oh, oh, he's famous.
That means he's rich.
One million dollars for this website.
No.
I offered a thousand.
A thousand was my max.
We are so far away from even the company having a million dollars.
People think we're like super wealthy. We're well off, but we're not. We've said dollars. People think we're super wealthy.
We're well off, but we're not. We've said it many times.
We're not rich. We're comfortable as
fuck, but we're not
going out there buying McLarens for
no reason. We're not those YouTubers that got three McLarens
in the garage, and that is
not a call out on Captain Sparks. How about this?
I'll put it this way. So many YouTubers
you wouldn't even think about because of their
subscriber base or maybe the views they get.
They end up going off and they'll buy a Tesla as kind of like their first big purchase.
We're still not up to that point.
We don't have Tesla money yet.
I'd love to buy a Tesla, but.
I did buy a.
I did.
Fucking fly in here.
Buy a new car.
You fucking pig not like recently but I replaced the
what is it
the Fiat a while back
that was a big deal people were like is the Fiat gone
yeah it's gone I needed trunk space
and shit that car was amazing
and I have so many great memories tied to it
and I loved whipping that thing around but I gotta say
Fiat's are such tiny cars
I loved the two thing around but I gotta say it was Fiat's are so easy to drive and park dude I loved
the two things was on
highways you could easily just whoop
someone's not letting you in which is very
common in California you're like oh okay
you're just a tic tac you're whoop
parking super easy never
had trouble yeah you could park
it like 20 miles per hour just whip into a whoop
and part of me kind of misses it but
I have to say I
do enjoy having leg room and
room for people to sit in the
back seats. That's nice. I think the
perfect car is a sedan.
We both have sedans. We do.
I have a Honda Civic and you have
some Mazda car and it's
you have the Mazda sports car.
I have the Mazda
8. They actually do.
I will say.
I think there's a Mazda 8.
I looked up sports cars that are from like normal car companies like Honda and Nissan.
They have some nice cars.
See, my next purchase, like my next kind of like, you know, how people have big purchases,
like you hear about like, my dad got a boat at an auction thing, whatever.
My next big purchase, I'm really wanting to go out and drive a motorcycle, but part of me feels like that'll be the end of me.
I have too much bad luck for that not to be the way.
You don't have bad luck at all.
Well, you might have a little bad luck.
I can't remember what happened, and this is going to be bad luck i but i can't remember what happened and this
is gonna be a shitty story because i can't remember specifics but there was one time where i told you
i looked you in the eyes i'm like watch this this is gonna happen because of my bad luck and right
after i said that that thing happened and it was hard i can't remember what it was though i do
remember you and i having a conversation a long time ago where we were like, things are too good right now.
And then like the next day, some very bad stuff happened.
Yeah.
But I think that, well, here's the thing.
I think maybe you have some bad luck, but I think you also have some really good luck.
Yeah.
Because.
Or maybe the people around me are having the good luck and I'm just, I'm a parasitic fucking insect and I'm feeding off of that success
and luck
if you're worried about getting a motorcycle
where are you going to crash it?
motorcycles are wobbly right? two wheels?
get a sidecar but it has balance
then I can ride along too
I think they're tougher to drive with a sidecar
with a sidecar really? maybe I don't know
I haven't driven a motorcycle I would like to
you've never driven one?
I mean if I don't buy a motorcycle I would like to you never driven one I mean if I don't buy a motorcycle
I'm gonna buy a firearm
and just start
doing some practice
in my backyard
no that's a lie
how fast
how fast
would the cops show up
if you just started
shooting an assault rifle
in your backyard
they wouldn't care
you know how many fireworks
are going off lately
what's up with the fireworks shit
what's up with that
what's up with that
oh wait sorry guys here's a funny poo-poo
okay okay back to the back to the fireworks uh fireworks ever since the george floyd protests
have begun there's been this nationwide phenomenon of just fireworks going off nonstop every day.
And I haven't seen them.
I've only heard them.
I've seen them like twice.
Oh, I see them.
But people say it's a conspiracy theory.
People say it's the police trying to lot of people went out on Memorial Day and it's rearing up to be July 4th, all of and that a lot of kids and people in general are stuck at home.
I think that it's just kind of like a mixture of, hey, we have a bunch of fireworks.
And now all of a sudden that it's a big thing.
People are like, oh, now I'm that guy.
I have a voice.
I have my life has purpose i have a meaning i am the fireworks guy in my neighborhood now i can be a faint
let's play a ryan mcgee at 6 p.m i can startle dogs dude lego hates fireworks dude oh animals
hate fireworks what animals hate fireworks i strap some fireworks to the to the kittens and they fucking hated it well like lego will just come in and he'll just like dip his dip his head like
like if i'm sitting playing a game he'll dip his head in like my crotch and just bury his head in
my crotch not in a sexual way well they don't i i'm i'm i'm the i'm the more sexually aggressive
one when it comes to lego and i's. He's more passive. He was just doing it because he's a scared
boy.
I don't want a Shane Dawson moment, so of course
I have to just in case.
Well, here's the thing about the Shane Dawson.
The truth. There is nothing wrong with
having sexual intercourse with your pet
as long as they consent.
And if you say animals can't consent,
that's bullshit. They can consent.
Of course you're not legitimately engaging in, or maybe you are, but that's
your personal life and I'm not going to pry.
Exactly.
Just like, I mean, gay people fought for their rights.
Why can I fight for mine?
Equating having sex with your dog to gay people.
That's what Southern people do.
That's what my dad does.
What's the next thing, huh?
They're going to force us to marry our dogs?
It's a slippery slope, Ryan.
Yes, Dale.
They will put a dress on a dog and they will have a pastor at a church.
At gunpoint.
Fuck that dog, Dale.
Okay.
No!
Oh, God!
But then it's like five years later.
Dale's getting up from bed.
Here's like the tippy taps of the dog paws.
I smell bacon.
Hey, baby, I didn't know you were making bacon so early.
God, I love you so much.
I'm kind of in the mood this morning.
Smash cut five years from now.
There's going to be some like video on Twitter of just this podcast.
Wait a second.
What did he say? Did they sexually molest animals no we don't just our pets it's like i did not
fuck my dog i did not come on my dog i had that tweet saved on my phone because it's it's it's
just as such a preposterous hilarious like i did not fuck my cat i did not come i didn't put my
dick anywhere near my cat i'm pretty sure if if a human man fucked a cat, that cat would probably have some sort of internal injuries.
Yes.
Shane Dawson said he rubbed his penis on the cat until he ejaculated.
That's very possible.
That's very possible, yeah.
Especially if you use your thumb or your hand to push weight on the top of your penis.
So I'm not going to...
I'm only speaking from experience.
I can't...
We should just move on. I'm having too to... I'm only speaking from experience. I can't... We should just move on.
I'm having too much fun with it.
It's fun. It's fun.
Just like I have too much fun with Lego sometimes.
Okay, you were talking about your big purchase.
Motorcycle.
That's not going to happen for a while.
Just because.
I think my big purchase would be...
But you can get them for so cheap.
Yeah, motorcycles, you can get them for really cheap.
Especially just put a little small down payment on it, pay it off over time.
I'd love to get a moped.
Motorcycles scare me.
Motorcycles are like big boy mopeds.
You can't drive a moped down the PCH.
That's the thing.
But I would be too scared even to drive a motorcycle on the PCH or the highway.
Because when I was in Hawaii, I rented a moped for a week.
The wind. And I just drove that on the pca to the highway because when i was in when i was in hawaii i'm running a moped for a week and and i just i just i drove that on the on the streets you can't drive it on like the freeway but you can drive it on the i mean you can't drive on like the interstate but
i actually broke the rules once because i had to i had to get somewhere and uh i got on like the
the bike lane and i would and it was scary but i will say it was very fun but that day in maui it was incredibly windy and i kept feeling like i was about to fall off the moped very. And it was scary, but I will say it was very fun. But that day in Maui, it was incredibly windy.
And I kept feeling like I was about to fall off the moped.
Very scary, but it was fun.
I would love to get a moped.
Zip it around where I live.
Sorry, I'm just...
Fuck, man.
You okay?
What's going on?
My body's like...
I don't know.
You know when you're hungry, it just hurts.
But I ate a good bit yesterday.
I don't understand.
Well, the key word in that is yesterday.
Well, I mean, food takes a bit to digest,
and it should be like I ate a bunch of trash yesterday, honestly.
Well, the average person's hungry like three or four times a day.
God damn it, I'm falling back into it, man.
I had a week without smoking a single cigarette,
over a week without smoking a single cigarette.
And then I got a pack recently again.
Oh, no.
Fuck me.
And then I was doing well with my weight.
Throw it out.
Throw it out.
I think I'm having like a big relapse right now.
Oh, it's easy.
But now that I say it, I can stop it.
But that's the thing.
It's easy to have a big relapse at once
because you convince yourself.
It's like, oh, well, I already smoked one cigarette.
Oh, I already ate this.
When I stopped smoking and was eating a tad better better i remember going to bed a lot easier waking up naturally
this morning i woke up to the sound of my alarm at like god knows what time i felt awful i just
like was dehydrated i felt just not fucking good man i and i'm thinking it's like hey this is a wake-up call this is a
this if if you run this is god saying if you ever had a more obvious represent like a venn diagram
of of your situation this is this is how close we're gonna get to it you need to recognize this
shit boy and i go haha god you're not real. And then he goes, fuck you, Ryan.
And then he curses me with nicotine addiction.
It's all God's fault in the end.
It is God's.
You don't have to worry about it
or hold yourself accountable.
Exactly.
It's God's fault.
I think that a good tip that I learned,
and I'm not someone to take advice from
because I wake up at like 3 p.m. every day.
Put a glass of water by your bed
for when you wake up.
And the very first thing when you open your eyes,
sit up and just chug that water.
Gets those systems rolling. I did chug eyes sit up and just chug that water gets those systems i didn't chug the water chug some water my problem was though that like oh my god i'm sorry for yawning through most of that sentence but i think
the problem counteracted with a fart sound effect okay there we go nice i'm gonna i'm gonna love
editing this one the problem is that it's a bunch of things in one. Back to smoking cigarettes.
So it makes me, I think cigarettes in general just make you more anxious or prone to anxiety.
Oh, yeah, dude.
When I was dueling and when I would quit dueling and then I'd pick it back up for a week or two, I would notice my anxiety.
General anxiety.
Not like, it wouldn't be about anything specific.
I would just feel more anxious, not as happy.
But then things that would make me anxious would make me ten times more anxious.
And that's simply just because you do get anxious when you are craving for a cigarette,
but your brain may not know that, like, hey, I'm craving a cigarette right now.
So you'll just be like, why am I anxious?
And then you'll attribute that anxiety to something else.
And then on top of that, eating like shit wears you down and makes your stomach and heart feel shitty for the whole day.
You're a machine.
The fuel you put in is what you get back out.
I'm 26
and I can't be fucking around
like that anymore.
I can't get diabetes, dude.
Fuck around like that at 22.
No, I can,
but I don't want to.
That's like,
I can't do,
I can't get it.
I just can't.
22,
it's easier to fuck around
like that, I guess.
I'm actually,
I'm starting to feel it at 24.
Like,
my body is not
accepting
the junk food
and the alcohol
the same it did at 21.
I also had two ice cream cones yesterday.
And a big honey bun.
And top of the tea of Doritos.
That's a lot of sugar.
And three bowls of cereal.
As I said, it was a relapse.
That sounds like a relapse.
There's parts where I'm just like, I do well in eating.
And then I'm like, I'm just going to have a small bowl of Rice Krispies.
And then I have that sugar.
And I'm like, my body goes. It's a drug. It's just like, I'm like, I'm just going to have like a small bowl of Rice Krispies. And then I have that sugar and I'm like, my body goes...
It's a drug. It's just like, I need sugar.
I need salt.
Sugar addiction is real. I mean, food addiction is real.
Give me salt. Give me
sugar. I need
my
need satiated.
At least you're looking good. You're looking good. You're looking thin.
Thanks, man. You're looking way thinner than you did a couple months ago.
I still, I think I was looking in the mirror and I came down to the fact that it's like,
I just hate my hips.
I just need to get those little fatties off of my hips.
Those love handles?
Those love handles, yeah.
Ain't much loving going on with them, though.
I don't love them.
Nobody I know loves them.
I love them. What I know loves them.
I love them.
What am I supposed to do next time we're together?
So when they're gone and I'm happy with the way I look, you're going to miss my love handles?
I'm going to start, like, secretly.
I'll be like, Ryan, I made us lunch.
And, like, I'm going to jack yours with butter.
Try to get them back.
Butter is the secret ingredient to making so many.
Dude, I made a homemade elote.
It's so good.
Ooh, elote.
Ooh.
Dude, I love elote.
I haven't had elote in so long. You just boil that corn.
You slather some mayonnaise on it.
Roll it in the, I can't remember the name of the cheese, but it's a certain cheese that
I grated and powdery.
You roll it in the cheese.
Put some hot chili powder on it.
Oh my God.
Well, actually, first you do butter, mayo, roll it in cheese, red pepper, and then you
can choose to put a little lime juice.
Lime is, yeah, lime makes it.
You gotta have lime.
I had, I had a-
Because I miss corn man, and I can't go out and get corn man, so I have to, I have to
make it myself.
Which is still fine.
I, I forgot how, sorry for interrupting you constantly, but-
No, it's okay.
I forgot how amazing eating off of a cob was.
It feels great, man.
It feels so like primal.
It's so juicy.
It's crunchy.
It's juicy.
It's like you might get it stuck in your teeth, but that's what God made floss for.
Exactly.

What a
beer con.
No, you say beer can
in a Jamaican accent.
Beer con.
Beer con.
But it just sounds like
bacon.
Yeah.
Okay, I got you.
Something like that.

Where's the corn, Ryan?
I don't know.
I don't have any fucking corn
here in the Super Mega Play.
You can buy ears yourself.
I already got two of them.
Why would I buy some more?
Put it far, Sam.
Okay.
I have an update on my kittens.
They're all dead.
Yep.
Anyway, let's move on.
Stepped on all of them accidentally.
You went, you went, oops.
Oh, no.
I stepped out at night to get a glass of water.
And you kept accidentally stepping on one after the other.
The worst thing is that has happened in reality to someone.
They've killed like three kittens in a row by accident.
Well, there's people who have killed their kids by accidentally going reverse in their own driveway.
Oops.
Oops.
That's not an oops.
What do you mean oops?
Oops, sorry dear. I'll be back.
I'll be back at five. We can make another one.
I mean, they can.
So what's the big deal, right?
We can basically, so Mandy,
the mother of the kittens,
the five kittens I have right now.
Skank.
She is a skank.
She was having a lot of sex
and she gave birth to
a lot of different kittens.
Yeah.
So a little bit of a whore
if you ask me.
But the time came
for her to be adopted out
because the kittens
aren't supposed to be
with their mama for too long
and she had been there long enough.
Otherwise they'll get mommy issues?
Yeah, they'll become
too attached I think
oh interesting
because there's that
whole thing where it's like
in nature she would have
been gone by now
and the kittens would have
been off on their own
but she's still
giving them milk
so that's going to
keep them there longer
and more
I think just
it causes issues
and she needs to be
neutered
and she's going off
to a ranch
to go live the rest
of her life
with some other
feral cats
and chase mice
but sounds like a euphemism for getting put down she's not getting put down she's actually off to a ranch to go live the rest of her life with some other feral cats and chase mice but sounds like a euphemism for getting put down she's not getting put down she's going
she's actually going to a ranch yeah that this this company they send feral cats off to different
ranches uh to live their life as little little barn cats um and mandy the morning came where i
had to go take her down to like long beach to go drop her off and And I was sad and she didn't know it was coming.
So I had to get her in the carrier.
And most people don't know this, but feral cats don't like to be handled.
Well, most people, well, the thing is most people do know that cats hate carriers.
So at least you have that starting point.
Well, I tried to get her in the carrier because she was all calm and I was just kind of like
going to like softly kind of like come on kind of like
push her butt a little bit she freaked
out she bit me
and her fang went through my
thumb nail all the way
into my finger and then the opposite
side of my thumb the soft side has three
fang punctures in it and then
I also have this nice
scratch these teeth marks
this right here.
I learned at a young age that whenever I had to like put a cat in a carrier, you either – it sounds bad.
What I did –
Beat them until they're unconscious.
No, I'd just take a towel, throw it over them, bunch them up in the towel, put them in the carrier, and they'd get all loose out of the towel, you know.
I tried doing that. There's also
wearing gloves slash kitchen mittens.
I tried doing that stuff. She, uh...
Did she take your mittens off?
Well, I tried the mittens after the, uh...
after the initial...
after my hands were covered in blood.
I got her in after, like, 20 minutes. Harrison had to come out
and, like, we had to, like, turn the table on its
side and, like, create, like, a trap with, like, out and like we had to like turn the table on its side and like create like a trap with like one.
I just grabbed the back of her neck.
I probably should have just just toss her, chuck her across the room into it.
But we got her.
She she went off.
She's been spayed now.
She's going to go live her life.
So I have five kittens still.
And within a week or two, they should be gone.
And I am excited for them to go live their lives because they ruined your couch.
I had to call. It ruined your bed. Yep ruined your couch. I had to call the city.
They ruined your bed.
Yep.
Okay, so I had to get rid of my mattress.
I had to call the city to come pick up my mattress.
And normally it's like, why would you get a whole new mattress?
Because a cat peed on it.
Mandy peed on it.
And it was probably-
Cat peed is not something you can just deal with.
It was about a two foot wide stain right where I lay my head at night.
And I didn't find it until about a day later.
So at that point it,
it saturated,
it soaked in.
Where were you for a day where you weren't in your room?
Drug stuff,
the drug trading.
Um,
but basically she peed.
So I'm like,
I have to get rid of this now.
I couldn't clean it up.
Uh,
and then she ruined my couch.
So I had to call the city to come pick up the couch.
So now my living room is completely barren except for fold, folding chairs. So I had to call the city to come pick up the couch. So now my living room is completely barren except for folding chairs.
So I'm waiting for the kittens to be gone just so I can get a couch and have my living room back and not smell like cat piss.
Because I got an air freshener.
I changed out the air filters in my house.
Got rid of the couch.
I got air, the little Glade plug-in things because I do not want the house to smell bad.
And it smells much better now.
because I do not want the house to smell bad.
And it smells much better now.
And soon when you come over to work on our secret project,
you'll notice I have furniture again and it won't smell like cat piss.
I'm excited.
I just feel bad because of the fleas I have.
You're not bringing them over.
No.
And if you are, they'll go to the kittens and then they'll go to someone else's house. Exactly.
You don't have to worry about it.
Exactly.
The thing about the place I live is I don't let Lego in like so like I have
like the quote unquote den
right that's I guess
for me the den is the living room
the computer office
and a place
where I can do some workouts
masturbation room too
I masturbate in
every room
so yeah the kitchen I don't think I masturbate in every room. So, yeah.
Every room?
The kitchen.
I don't think I've masturbated in the kitchen.
Laundry room?
Well, the kitchen is, the kitchen's conjoined with a living room, a quote unquote living
room space.
That's where just like Lego is.
But there's the tile that, I would say the tile is where it separates the rooms.
Yeah.
Because even though it's not a wall, have you masturbated in the kitchen before?
No.
Living room. I've never had sex in the kitchen either. Really? Yeah. Because even though it's not a wall, have you masturbated in the kitchen before? No. Living room.
I've never had sex in the kitchen either.
Really?
Yeah.
We can change that, can't we?
Usually those acts are either in the den or the bedroom.
Okay.
Cool.
Or on the roof.
But not like on the roof,
like kind of like in the attic area. Still the roof. Well not like on the roof, like in like kind of like under the like in the attic area.
Still the roof.
Well, I don't have an attic.
There's just a hole in my ceiling that you can crawl into.
It's covered up with a trash bag.
Yeah.
So you can hear it flapping around at night.
Sometimes it just gets you in the mood and you got to go up there and release those demons.
Yep.
Yeah.
What were you saying?
I actually forgot.
About what?
Exactly.
You were saying something about the fleas, the fleas.
Yeah, I just don't want to bring fleas over.
And I'm fucking sick and tired of them.
Give me the cats.
That was the first anecdote in this podcast was the fleas.
Yeah.
Still fucking dealing with them.
I don't know.
Fleas suck.
I have a couple flea bites, actually.
I have like one or two.
Where?
On my ankle.
Right now?
Mm-hmm.
They're old.
They're really old, though. But they last for like two weeks. do they itch for two weeks how long do flea bites itch for
a long time they mosquito bites will be gone in a few days flea bites will be there for like two
weeks i can never tell if it's a mosquito or a flea at first flea bites are hard and also
mosquito bites really easy mosquito bites well up yeah but flea bites feel like there's like
something actually under your skin it's like a like a like a welt yeah i've been seeing a lot of uh omens lately it's been scaring me about
oh the like the headless snake yeah that's one so i i keep seeing coyotes
you saw one coyote essentially just have a cat or small animal or something yeah so like
it's a big small animal two times now i've gone for a walk and i'll
leave my house and the second i'm walking out there's a coyote in my driveway just walking by
just minding his own business like hey two times i still haven't seen a coyote and then i saw one
walking by with a huge animal in his mouth but every single time the coyote stops and looks at
me and tries to get me to like follow it almost it's like it like stops and waits for me like an
npc and i'm like that's. And I read about it that coyotes
are spirit guides and they want you to
follow them. So I was like, whatever.
Or it's keeping its eye on you to make sure you're not
following it. No, it's a spirit guide. And then
I saw a metallic balloon
floating away in the sky while driving on
the highway. Is that an omen?
Later in the day, other side of LA, I saw
the same thing again. A balloon floating away.
And I was like, oh shit, that feels like an omen.
And then, on the way to work today, I see a big ass metallic balloon stuck in a tree.
And I was like, shit, it's some kind of omen.
And then, I was taking the trash out the other night and I found a headless snake squirming around.
No head.
Like, clean off.
Something came.
Probably a cat came.
Just clean off.
And I was like, oh, a headless snake.
That sounds like a bad omen.
But it looked like it was...
Honestly, what you sent me, it looked like just a tail of
a lizard.
It was a snake.
I squatted down and I was like, whoa.
Because I thought it was an earthworm at first.
It was a little snake.
Okay.
I want to get a snake.
A little corn snake?
I want to get a little corn snake or a little green ones.
Yeah.
I can't tell if I want a green one or if I want a garden snake.
I like the corn snakes.
Corn snakes are cute.
They're simple pets.
Because I see them all the time.
I used to...
God.
Riverbank Zoo.
They're still...
Dude.
Riverbank Zoo has like a seal show habitat looking thing now.
What?
I think.
You fucking with me?
I went like...
Yeah, it's the most recent zoo I've been to
and I don't go to zoos all the time
they've done a lot of work on
Riverbank Zoo
I love Riverbank Zoo
isn't it like the biggest or most popular
tourist attraction in Columbia
or some shit like that
I imagine the state house is not more popular
than the zoo
Riverbank Zoo is such a great zoo.
It's in South Carolina.
It's in the capital.
They got gorillas.
They got gorillas.
They got bears.
They got bears.
They got lions, tigers, oh my.
They got kangaroos or the little tiny kangaroos
that you can now go into a cage and walk through this little trail
and you can go see them and they're hopping around.
Wallabies?
Yeah, yeah, wallabies.
Wallabies are so cute.
I went to that, when I went to that monkey thing up north,
I got to pet a wallaby.
And I was standing there taking a picture and one ran right between my legs real fast.
Can you believe we just have fresh Tims still?
I'm looking at them.
It's a lot.
One, two, three.
I think we have like two other pairs.
I think we have like five pairs of Tims.
It's crazy.
They're expensive, too.
Yeah, so actually, fun fact, when Ryan and I record this podcast, in between us is is a table and underneath the table is a little rack that's just filled with
Tim's so every word of this podcast
has to cross over a layer
of Tim's to get to the other person first
so in a way you could say
the Tim's are very ingrained that's a fucking fly again
dude a fucking fly
we're still in the
right by my face we're in the fly era
of the podcast right now.
Still.
It hasn't died down.
So for those of you, those super mega historians that are making a chart of eras of the podcast and sagas, we're still in the fly saga.
It's ending, though.
It's coming to an end.
There's only one fly in here.
And I haven't seen Rupert that spider around anywhere either.
No, he's hiding.
He's hiding. He's hiding somewhere. The flies might have overpowered
his ass. You know? You ever think about that?
No.
Sorry, you're just so boring.
Yeah, I know. I understand.
I haven't told that before. Hey, Ryan, I gotta
go grab a drink real quick. Put some fart
sounds in.
And I'm back. Thank you for the fart sounds for the poo poo sound horse my man of course you've been uh watching any any good youtube lately because i always see every time
we do a q a on patreon or just in general i see people say what are y'all's favorite youtube
channels so i figured let's let's get this out in the open so also we can get some more eyes on some of these epic channels,
even though some of them are a lot bigger than us.
One channel that I've been – let me pull it up real quick.
Wait, real quick.
Can I throw something in?
Yeah.
Remember a couple podcasts ago when we were talking about – I think 197.
We were talking about old YouTube channels.
A couple podcasts ago, when we were talking about, I think 197, we were talking about old YouTube channels.
And I mentioned that there was this one YouTube channel that only had like a thousand subscribers that I loved watching but was never able to find.
Okay.
People reached out to, they found the guy and got him to email me.
So we got in touch and we've been talking.
The guy that had that small YouTube channel that I looked up to when I was doing Format24.
And I was just blown away.
And I looked at his Instagram to confirm it is him oh talking about that people figured out
the
oh my god I'm so happy someone figured out
the duo
that I was talking about the comedic
duo one of the guys actually
apparently is on SNL right now
whoa yeah it's a they used to be
called Nobody's Watching
okay so that's why i couldn't
remember the name because it's just one of those things where i couldn't tell but it was called
nobody's watching i think most of the videos they they have done uh i can't really find them
they can find like shitty quality versions of them but i can't find like they used to have like i
remember what following their saga because they were doing uh they were the whole they had this
whole bit where they were making a show and the whole point of the show
was that they were making a show,
I think.
It's crazy.
You guys are wild.
You found that shit.
That was so cool.
I know.
And that I could just mention like,
yeah, I watched this guy
with like a thousand subs
back in like 2009
and then his channel disappeared.
And you guys somehow,
just from what I said,
were able to fucking find the guy
and link him up with me.
I got an email that was like,
hey Matt,
this is Adam. I heard you were talking about me on your podcast apparently
uh does he still do stuff uh he's like he he went to art school he made a feature moved around a lot
started a freelance film business that's what he said on instagram to me yeah we were just talking
recently and catching up that was super cool but back to the YouTube channels. Yeah. One that I kind of have enjoyed watching, it's a YouTuber by the name of Cass Aris.
I think they are not a – I don't know.
I can't remember.
They're psychologists of some kind, and they talk about mental health, and they talk about different issues and things, things and they have and they tell stories and anecdotes.
And I and I and it's very also their voice is super calming to listen to.
That's the best.
So I really have been enjoying that channel.
She she has what is it?
She has like seven point eight six thousand subscribers, but I'm subscribed and I
love watching her stuff and I think
she has a lot of good information
to share and a lot
of good insight to be shared as well.
Yeah, I
a lot of my favorite channels are really small
ones because there's so many
in a time when YouTube seems like
it's just consumed by like the Paul Brothers
and all that shit. Well, Jake Paul's saying he's been shadow banned or something like that. I wouldn't
be surprised, but also the same time he makes so much money. I don't know if shadow banning is a
thing that YouTube does for channels, but I think that he also makes them so much money. Yeah. You
know, he makes them YouTube takes 50%. I'm pretty sure 50% is the cut or some shit like that. If he,
if for some reason he's making unfortunately
20 million this year instead of 22
million my heart goes out to you Jake
I really
like I've been I've been into
spooky YouTube a lot
but I don't I like
I'm not like one of those true crime white girls
but I really do like
crime I like
mysteries and incidents.
There's a lot of podcasts around you, man.
I'm surprised you're not into it.
I haven't listened to any podcasts because they're a big commitment.
But what I like, I've never been a huge podcast guy because it's always like, it's an hour of my time.
No, well, I don't even see it as like an hour of my, it's like if I'm doing something, I can have it on like I would music.
Same.
Well, I would love to listen to more podcasts. I just don't know. I haven't done research. I don doing something. I can have it on like I would music. Same. Well, I would love to listen to more podcasts.
I just don't know.
I haven't done research.
I don't know.
There's a shit ton of murder mystery podcasts out there.
It's like, I think one of the more famous genres.
True crime podcasts are huge.
They're the biggest ones, I think.
But the thing is, I don't, I'm not super into just like murder stories.
I like weird shit.
So I like Nexpo.
I'm sure a million of you guys follow him Because he's actually gotten really big lately
He's getting like
He'll upload a new video and has 1.5 million
So he's big now but he does
I think you would love him Ryan
He just picks creepy topics
Like disturbing things from 4chan
Or like
He has a series called disturbing things from around the internet
But he does volumes of it
Like 30 minutes each
Very much in the same vein of...
To YouTube.
Yeah, that guy.
The name of Matt Watts.
Same vein.
But he's really good.
There's a channel called Horror Stories that this guy is just so cookie cutter.
Not cookie cutter.
He's just very like...
He's so plain.
He doesn't like, hey guys, welcome to the video.
He just starts, reads like a Wikipedia article, and then ends it.
So it'll be like hold on a man named suprianto was pulled down and drowned in the crocodile filled waters
of the indonesian and his video is only like a minute long so he'll just talk about like an
incident from wikipedia and then be like he won't even say like thank you goodbye it's like and he
died into the video dude i can so so essentially it's like you're does he have his own script or is
he just reading i think it's his own script but i'm i'm but he also includes like videos and
pictures along with it and there's not usually like any music or anything but he does stories
about like but is it like pictures where it's like when he's talking about an alligator he
shows a picture of like a google images alligator uh it's more like this like he's talking about
this actor and like his suicide like how simple it is
no that's why i love his channel because his voice is so things to be just bright and bombastic and
shit just get like getting to the point making it simple is sometimes the best course of action
yes but i found some more channels like that that are just kind of like they report on just like
mystery stuff because i was reading about some weird i'd love to talk about this more on the podcast, like these weird, I don't want to be a true crime podcast, but there
are some really interesting cases that just leave so much up to be questioned. Like, uh, I read one
about in the, I think it was Rocky mountain wilderness and the Rocky mountain national
park. This kid was playing on the edge of the woods on a hike and then just went missing.
And, uh, they went all through the woods they
couldn't find him ever and he's been missing for over 50 years but then there was another family
like 10 minutes later in another part kind of nearby that was taking a hike and they saw like
what they thought was like a man with like a child on his back and the child was like screaming he
was like running with it and they never figured out what happened and then the fbi came in and like
shut down the investigation i think and like wouldn't give anyone any answers and they had
green berets come in and shit too and like it's just this weird mystery where it seems like
authorities were really trying to hide something and the dad never got an answer closure or anything
yeah and um there's just a you should look it up i forgot what it's called
but it's it's on the horror stories channel okay um but it's it's just this weird ass mystery where
it's like this kid goes missing but then there's so much more to it where there's just so much like
what happened to him it's interesting there's all these weird little tidbits and the fbi uh
throwing out information and stuff i mean like bringing the military and the park rangers were
saying that like there are groups of people that live in the wilderness like in america like in the rocky
mountains and stuff that are like fully off the grid uh not adapted to modern society at all like
they like wear pelts and shit and they cannot they're like a lost cause like they can't be
controlled it's the same people that are not in the same way, but it's like the Amish.
There are people who just live a different way.
And I'm sure there's a lot of people who still live that frontier life.
I don't think these people even, well, these people, like, it's not like they made a choice to.
It's like they're born into it.
They don't even have a house.
Like they just live in the woods and wear like animal pelts.
Interesting.
Which is really interesting modern day.
But they were saying that it could have been one of those people.
Because one of those people attacked a park ranger once
and almost killed him because he ran into him.
And, you know,
I don't even think they could speak. Just a rabid dude?
Yeah, essentially.
Which I wonder if that's
what a lot of sightings of
Sasquatch are. Because there are those
people that live there that wear animal
furs and stuff. And if you
saw a huge dude in the woods wearing animal furs
running around. Like a bear pelt. Yeah.
I think it's a sad story. Like a six foot dude wearing
a bear's pelt. I'd be terrified.
I'd be more scared of that
than Bigfoot I feel. Bigfoot I'd be
like oh he's just you know. I don't know.
Bigfoot would have ape strength. Like gorilla
strength times ten. Every time I'm camping
I start thinking about Bigfoot and I'm like
that's so stupid but I'm like fuck I'm scared now oh like just hear just hear that echoing just
i was sleeping on a hill once like not at a campsite like just backpacking with my dad and
we just went off the trail pitched a little tent and i was just like fuck man like we're off you
pitched a tent with your dad i did pitch a tent with my dad it's nice i ended up writing a song
about it good memory uh but basically i i there was late at night, just things echo through the woods when you're deep in the woods.
And you'll just hear like, some shit like miles away.
And I get it.
Like, the woods full of animals.
They're going to do animal shit.
I think it's necessarily because you can't pinpoint what exactly it is.
Or where it is.
That leaves your mind open to interpretation. And thus that it's whenever you fill in the blanks.
It's the same reason why we talk about it's connected in a sense.
It's the same reason why we don't or at least I don't like doing face cam for Let's Plays because I feel like just having our voice lets people's imaginations kind of fill in the blanks of what our facial expressions are.
If we're being deadpan,
if we're being overenthusiastic,
I think,
uh,
I don't know,
just,
just giving people like a little bit of room of interpretation kind of,
uh,
add some breath to what you're doing.
Yeah.
In this sense,
it's in a,
uh,
scary,
scary way.
Well,
actually interesting.
What you're saying about that is is is when you have our faces they're given all the information they need to know
exactly how to react but if it's just our voices their brain has to fill in the rest and i think
that's where it there's a lot more uh your brain get a lot more creative with like are we just
chilling on the couch in a dark room are we like you know sitting in office
chairs are we fucking like
have our hands on each other's backs
also I feel like our bits
we can be more
imaginative within our bits
oh yeah they work way better with just audio
there's a place for face cam
but we're never gonna do just face cam let's plays
that's not our style
we've made it this we've made over four years just doing non face cam let's plays. That's not our style. We've made it this. We've made over four years just doing non-face cam let's plays.
And a lot of people do want the podcast to switch over to video.
And that's something that we've never made our mind up on.
We're open to it.
We still don't know yet, though.
Yeah.
I mean, at this point, what, approaching episode 200 next week.
And it's like, we haven't done that.
We would be doing well because then we'd be able to make a clips channel.
Yeah.
People would see our faces and be like, oh, I want to see these people talk about things.
Because I do understand, like, I would much rather, when I'm searching through YouTube, watch a video of two people talking about certain things.
Than an audio clip.
Yeah, than an audio clip.
But my thing also is, and you agree fully with me on this, is.
Okay.
Anyway, so there's basically two races is that i don't know we've kind of always done it this way and yeah i'm sure if we did the video
podcast it would get more views but i don't know we we've never really been one of those channels
that's big into like doing what gets. We've kind of just always done
what we want to do.
I would say I am 100%
even though I've filmed embarrassing
shit in public before, I'm more comfortable
recording a podcast with just the voice.
If the camera's there, I have to think about
how I'm sitting. And we're self-conscious dudes.
Then that adds the whole thing of where
I'd look into the camera for jokes and I'd be more
aware of a viewer. If there's camera, like when there's a camera, it's kind of like a stand in for the viewer.
You know that like something's watching you.
But when we're having a podcast, we know that we're recording it and we're being performative.
But I can scratch my nuts.
It does leave room and it leaves instances where you and I will get into discussion and it's not just like playing it up for the podcast sake.
It's like we just get invested in the discussion and I kind of forget I'm recording a podcast and I just want to – and I'm just talking with you.
Yeah, exactly.
And I really – I also feel like if we did video, we'd start to rely too much on visual bits.
And then the people that have listened to audio only for 200 episodes would start to feel like it's changing
yeah you know where it's like hey look at this video
I'm gonna pull up this video yeah and then people
that are just listening like oh this isn't the same podcast
I used to like because it's there's a
lot of factors but I think at the end of the day just
we're doing what we find comfortable and we're
doing what we feel is right for
yeah exactly what we're happy with
you know we don't want to like cop
as you you've seen us.
We've we've experimented before with the talking show.
I mean, we do experiment and we do try things.
It's just that if it doesn't gel, we're not going to push it forward any farther than we feel like it deserves.
Yeah, because I feel like we've also reached a point after five, six years of just our channels and all this stuff i
think that we're at a point where we have a a group of people that follow us and enjoy our content
know us as creators really well and i think that uh we don't i feel like we have to do stuff just
for clicks because really like when we do this podcast it's like the people listening care and the people listening like what we're
saying,
uh,
for the most part.
But I,
I think that,
uh,
we're comfortable with that knowing that we have an audience and,
and growing the audience is always something we want to do,
but it's not our main concern.
We kind of want to just like keep living our lives and hanging out,
but then sharing these discussions that we have with each other with the
people that actually care and want to listen i'm kind of like with you like i'm past
the whole excitement over growth like i still i i still find it overwhelming when i see the amount
of people that's supporting us whenever we hit a milestone that's great but that's not that used to
be what the channel kind of that that was kind of like the adrenaline rush, the drug, you know, you'd make the content to to see the reaction and then see it spread and see other people connect with your content and your style of humor.
And which still does give you a little high.
No, that still gives you a high. But like the since the growth isn't as exponential, it's not the the main it's not one of the main reasons I draw, um, positivity through what I'm doing.
Like I, I, I now just like recording the podcast and going in and recording the games I want to
play. I, there was a part of us that, you know, was playing the game to grow in some instances.
Um, like some of the games we choose to play. And I feel like I'm more comfortable choosing games that we want to play
instead of going after all the Surgeon simulators and all that,
or like the Toast game or whatever the fuck that was called.
I think that for both of us, the most important thing with Super Mega
is we want to create something that feels like us, like genuine and real.
I know there's a million channels where it's like,
just two dudes hanging out on a couch.
Yeah.
That's what I genuinely – I don't want to emulate though.
I don't want to emulate that feeling.
I want to –
I don't want to have a set that's a couch and like a TV and everything.
I'm not trying to masquerade a set as this ideal of two friends on a couch.
I want to continue.
You want to be.
To just – yeah, exactly.
I want to continue to be your friend
talking with you and playing video games,
sitting on a couch and shooting the shit.
Because, yeah, that's the thing.
It's like, I don't want to just.
And working on some special projects.
And some special projects.
But that's what's so fun about it
is because we actually are like best friends
that when we work on these special secret projects,
we have, when you came over there and worked i had a fucking blast i can't wait for
you to come over again and work on it like we are working on some big shit but i don't want to just
be masquerading two friends on a couch as like that's the theme of the show i just wanted to
actually be two friends on a couch yeah and if we ever stopped being friends we wouldn't keep doing
super mega no it makes good money and shit but like we wouldn't be happy doing it anymore we like if we weren't friends we would so i the conspiracy theories
like they hate each other it's like if we hate each other we would not be doing super mega yeah
we would do other shit no you need the money though so one could say that financially you
would stay there's like yeah yeah yeah yeah but like i'd be happier with less money uh than forcing
myself to do a show with someone I don't like.
Yeah.
Or like just don't connect with well.
And feel like we have to force ourselves.
Like trying to force a connection, yeah.
Trying to force ourselves to keep making a show when we don't have a connection or don't want to.
That makes me more depressed than having less money.
The channel's still very much just I'm making content with my friend.
And I want it to stay that way.
That's all it is.
I don't ever want it to change.
That's all the channel's ever been.
And I want it to stay that way.
I don't ever want it to change.
It's all the channel has ever been.
And yeah, we have made mistakes and done some probably we've made some questionable jokes or had some questionable views. I never have.
Sure.
Just you.
Just me.
No, I definitely have.
But I don't know.
It's just a just a just a journey.
And I like viewing it as a journey.
That's exactly how I see it. I don't want to see this as like a channel, like a business. It is a business, but I don and I like viewing it as a journey. That's exactly how I see it.
I don't want to see this as like a channel,
like a business.
It is a business,
but I don't want to see it as like,
I want,
cause I know super mega won't be around forever.
There will come a day where we decide to pull the plug and say goodnight.
I think that it's inevitable.
What,
what I want from super mega is I don't want it to become this,
this weird,
like new hosts.
Or like,
if we like,
let's say we just replace Matt and Ryan with like two new younger dudes
I want it to be ours
where it's like Super Mega is a brand
when it's like no no no
Super Mega is a brand
but okay
I'll bring it up
the reason we quit
like I stopped doing
Syndigo was because of you know
Daniel passed away and Daniel,
Daniel's personality was a huge part of syndigo.
It was, it was you guys.
It made sense to stop it because that same energy and voice,
it's not the same.
It's different.
It's not syndigo.
It's something else.
And that's why I joined kids with problems.
That's why eventually we had,
we had kind of the same issue with that.
And we developed super mega because super mega of unique voice we developed SuperMega because SuperMega is a
brand but it's
the brand that allowed us to consolidate
who we are into something
new that it wasn't based on anything
else. Yeah, yeah.
And you know, I think
that basically
I want to be able to look back
at SuperMega and not be like
oh, that was a good company we had. I want to be able to lay in bed and watch old not be like, Oh, that was a good company.
We had like,
I want to be like,
I want to be able to like lay in bed and watch old videos. It's more about the memories.
Yes.
The memories.
Yes.
I want it to be like,
that was a fun fucking journey I had with my friend in my twenties.
Like that was the fucking life.
Like that was awesome.
You remember going out and filming that?
That was so much fun.
Uh,
cause there were,
there are points where it's like,
we have to,
where we start filming a vlog and i don't know i just
like we're not like into it and so like i start to be like oh are we just filming this to create
content because we used to like that that used to be the point yeah you're filming to create content
but we'd also just it was just about us hanging out filming each other having a good time and
then messing with it in post and editing and that i think honestly that's a reason why you know we've talked about filming vlog we have filmed the multiple
vlogs but i'm sure some of them will be released but some of them i had i did have that feeling of
are we like is it just because we need content we feel forced to film this because that's the
thing is i don't want to just people want live action and i know that uh we're we're i guess to quote quote unquote we're good at producing it but we're both very
self-conscious about it and also it's like we don't want to just create live action content
to create because our live action content like our japan vlogs and stuff like that's us genuinely
having fun and i don't want to just be a youtube channel that's like just pumping out cringy videos
yeah so people say like where's the live action it's not that we're lazy well okay there we are a
little bit lazy there's a part that's lazy there's a lot more to it than just that there's an easy
there there there's an easy argument to be made you know against for us be against us for being lazy in terms of that with with not having to do that struggle and building the
channel you build a you build a sense of complacency which um in that can brew um
a creative a creative deficit and i think that I, I personally have been experiencing a huge lack of creativity.
Yeah.
I don't think that's necessarily because we're not,
you know,
fighting to build this channel.
I,
I,
I,
I honestly have to align it with just where I am mentally in terms of like
mental health or just kind of like with the overarching COVID stuff.
There's also excuses of just yeah there
there are days and weeks where i feel lazy as fuck and like i let's be real guys we're we're
a 26 and 24 year old stoner yeah duo we're gonna feel like we're not like these heads of business
like a lot of other big youtubers are we're like running companies like we're like we'll fucking sleep until 3 p.m like we're literally just like college students essentially
that got lucky with a youtube channel yeah so we're not like business ceos maybe on paper but
like we never want it to feel like a business i don't want seems spoiled right that's i mean i
can understand why people would be upset because there there are a lot of people and you know we
used to work in the field where you have to get up and you have to work and you have to work you have to be
every week you have to you have to do all these things um and then at the end of the day like say
we're working for our chick-fil-a or food lion at the end of the day the money that we earn from
that just doesn't feel justified in the amount of work we might have put into it. So it just it develops into this kind of this this sinking feeling. And I'm glad that we're able to do what we do. And I and I and I recognize the luck and the and the amazing support that you guys have brought to us, but mostly luck that we are able to have, quote unquote, jobs that allow us to act in a more irresponsible way,
I guess.
You know, we don't have to set alarms every day of the week.
We don't have to work at nine to five.
If I had stayed through college and gotten a job, I wouldn't be sleeping until 3 p.m.
Yeah.
You know, I'd be getting up at like 7 a.m. every morning working a i hate so i i feel so we're we're spoiled lucky we are spoiled in that fact
but again the the type of content we make like there's there is that fear of well if we do start
to put certain things in place and we do you know like we do have work weeks and we do have work
days but it's not like we have to meet from here here every day of the week it's more of
you know when we're both woken up we'll text each other reach out be like hey are you ready to meet
and then we'll sorry i just saw a cute fucking squirrel run by the window anyway
did you see my eyes like follow it but um no there's there's um oh where was i
what was i saying waking up and texting to meet every day yeah you know there you don't want to
set a precedent there's there's the fear that when it becomes a business in a in setting up the times
and the specific work days and having you know getting up early not only that but then hiring more people
and making it more of like
clockwork or I guess
more of an assembly
line in means of
making content when it starts to feel like
that that's when the
two guys sitting on a couch starts to wither
away yeah and it loses its soul
and I think one thing is
so we have to be lazy guys
it's it's part of our creative magic see no i i think that uh but but i i do i think that one way
it's interesting is like i think that we have kept uh the soul of super mega alive still four
years later like i still feel like four years in it still feels as
as genuine and despite the growth despite whatever like i feel like we do you know because we are
being genuine it's we're not trying to feel genuine we're being we're being ourselves i also
feel like we haven't like i don't know we we don't unnecessarily flood the market with like our content or merch or all that shit.
Like I'm not trying to – I am trying to make money and I'm trying to be comfortable, but I'm not trying to make as much money as humanly possible.
Well, if we wanted to –
Well, I want to get back into merch and stuff, but like I've just seen arguments where it's like oh i guess it's
this goes into reading negative comments which we've talked about endlessly but
it's like oh they're now that they have money they're they they don't want to do it anymore
and they're they just uh are just taking their money and kind of running with it and being lazy
and i use i use it in that voice because i believe that that's untrue because I don't feel like that I don't feel
like we're not like that I still like and enjoy
making content do I do
do I enjoy
making let
would I enjoy having
to record let's plays
to where we would have to
post to a day no I wouldn't enjoy that so I'm not
going to do it because here's the thing like let's be
real if Ryan and I wanted to be millionaires in two years we probably could we could record two let's plays a day? No, I wouldn't enjoy that, so I'm not gonna do it. Because here's the thing. Like, let's be real. If Ryan and I wanted to be millionaires
in two years, we probably could. We could
record two Let's Plays a day. Okay, Tyler
Blevins. I'm just saying. If we wanted, like,
but the thing is, like, if we released merch every week,
if we did two Let's Plays a day, we could.
If we did live streaming. But we don't.
If we did all these things. Because it doesn't,
as much as a million
dollars sounds awesome, it's like, I don't
want to burn myself out, and I don't want to not enjoy this process with you.
I don't want it to be – because I think you and I are both of the mindset where it's like what we're making now is comfortable.
We don't need to be making – yeah, it would be great, but it's like –
It would be great to have eight Teslas in my garage.
Yeah, that would be fucking awesome.
In my two garages.
We might have a stacking garage that can cycle out my sports car.
Exactly.
But it's like, do we need that?
No.
And I think the level of money and the support, I think more importantly, the support we receive
from you guys is so much more than a typical channel with 800,000 subs.
And I think that is one of the things that just keeps us so grounded and keeps us going
because it's like, fuck, there's so many cool people out there.
More people than should be supporting us for a channel of our size because there's channels
with 20, 30 million subs that don't have a fan base like SuperMega.
Which is why it's wild to me.
So it's like, I guess we did something right.
But I don't want to ever give that up and just become a generic channel just to make a lot of money i like what we're doing now and we do get lazy sometimes like
i'll admit that and we miss uploads a lot but i also don't want to set the precedent that it's
like we're gonna upload every day we're gonna always have content out because no at the end
of the day we're living our lives we live in our 20s and we're going to keep making content
but sometimes like we're gonna focus on ourselves and just not upload
for a bit yeah and that doesn't mean our content's any less good that doesn't mean we're shitty
people because there is this quality that's expected on youtube with like every day that's
being uploaded this time that's not super mega it was maybe at some points like in the beginning
when we were just putting out videos as much as possible and that was a great fun beginning
journey we're never just gonna ditch super mega So if we stop uploading for a couple days.
Don't get scared.
We're dealing with our lives.
We got our own mental shit.
Just remember.
That time and life exists.
Out of the content.
That you hear on Super Mega.
So like our existence isn't just.
We're not trapped inside our YouTube channel.
Like there are hours. And days where like like we're not working on Super Mega like you would think of a weekend or just I don't know.
After we're done recording, you know, I go home.
I drive in traffic and I sit there and I listen to music and then I get home and I pet Lego and and I, you know, rest with him for a bit.
Then I feed him.
I go outside and let him run around.
Then I go back inside to make some food.
You know, there's, it's like we are humans that have lives and we do a bunch of things
other than our create content and think about creating content.
We have family shit.
We got, you know, roommates to deal with.
Fucking tough.
Friendships.
You know, it's just.
I mean, not to mention like personal anxieties. Personalhips. Not to mention personal anxieties.
Personal anxieties.
Depression, OCD, whatever.
There's a lot.
Whatever excuse will make you guys forgive us and keep watching.
No, there's just a lot.
I think people don't.
I think especially with big YouTube channels, people don't see it as people.
They see it as.
YouTube channels, people don't see it as people, they see it as...
And I think it's easy to
dehumanize themselves
because it becomes such a routine, scheduled...
We're not asking for much, guys.
We're asking for you to play
Truck Simulator once a week, okay?
It's not much. One Let's Play a week? Okay.
One Let's Play a week? Sure.
But,
obviously, we've said this recently,
we've been burnt out the past few
months and we are starting some new big projects that feel fucking awesome we're excited one
project in particular one project in particular where i i i was telling matt i told matt and and
we're gonna stick to this i told him this isn't a project that i want because there have been
projects that we've been talking about that kind of fall like back into the wayside,
you know,
this is a project where I'm like,
I want to come over to your place and work on this.
Like use,
use super mega work days.
Cause Monday through Friday are days that we are like,
we have to do something for super mega,
whether it's a business conversation,
whether it's recording,
whatever it is,
something for super mega has to,
this has to be involved in that
week or day
and I say at least two
or at least one day out of that work week
all we do for that day
maybe even three
I come over and we work on this project
because I want no matter what
I want there to be
progression always for this project
to be finished.
I want this project to be fucking awesome.
Because I'm so excited to put this out.
I am too.
And it feels fucking awesome.
It feels kind of back to like the Cyndago days working on it, I think.
Oh, yeah.
And I think what I want to do is even if we're not coming in and just recording Let's Plays
and uploading as much, like people can rest assured that we are working on something that
is big that will be coming out soon.
Yes.
I would also like to start recording more drunk drawing again.
Yes.
Well, I feel like we're getting to the point where we can.
We were like, oh, we can't because the pandemic is so bad.
But now the pandemic is even worse.
We're just waiting for Jackson.
Yeah.
Jackson has been out of town for over a month.
He's been.
So basically, Jackson has this deal with this older woman where she pays him a weekly allowance
and he
does things. I don't want to get
into details. I don't want to give away his personal info
but recently she said,
I'm lonely during this pandemic. Come visit me in Utah.
So he has been in Utah for the last
month. Well, she asked him to send pictures first
but I guess that's not important
to say. I'll cut that out.
She did the casting thing where she made him do the
mold of his
but he's been in Utah for a month
seeing this older woman
so I don't want to get into
his personal life or give away too many details
he'll be coming back soon and once he's back
we're gonna get drunk drawing going again
oh
fart sound effect
oh there it is Ryan since this was the poo poo episode We're going to get drunk, draw, and go on again. Oh, fart sound effect.
Oh, there it is. There it is.
Hell yeah.
Ryan, since this was the poo-poo episode, what do you say we...
We end it with a big poo-poo?
Yeah.
I mean, we just had a fart sound effect play.
You think it's...
Hey, buddy, it's the poo-poo episode.
That is true.
Okay, so...
We'll see you guys next week for episode 200.
