Hey everybody, welcome to the 74th and final episode of 2017 of Super Megacast. I'm Matt Watson. You said that weird. You could have said this is the final podcast of the year of 2017. But you went, this is the final 2017 year of the podcast. That's not what I said.
Starting point is 00:00:58 That's not what I said. It was pretty close. No, I said this is the final podcast of the year 2017. You didn't say final podcast. You said like, this is the final year. Final episode of the year 2017. This is the final podcast of 20 of the year 2017 final podcast you said like this is the final episode of the year 2017 final year of the episode i did not that's not what i said i did not say this is the final year of the episode that makes no sense but this is the last why'd you say it i can't i can't say it god you gaslight me like crazy. Right from the start. Oh, man. But it is 2017 at the time of recording this.
Starting point is 00:01:28 And this is the final episode of that year. God, now you got me all weirded out. No, you're doing good. Keep going. Keep going, sport. But this is the last episode of 2017. The next time there's a Super MegaCast will be in the year of 2018. Isn't that something crazy, man?
Starting point is 00:01:45 It'll be 75, which is a nice round number. To start on. Yeah, I'm excited for that. I mean, there's a lot of Super Megacasts in one year. I think this year we started on, what, 31? 32? I can't remember. I know sometimes we just, like, if there's an emergency or if something happens, we don't release one during a week.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Or if we're taking a break, we may focus just on the podcast. But I can't remember if there's been a week yet where we've uploaded two podcasts. There was. In 2017, there was one week where we did one on, like, a Monday and on a Thursday. Okay. Just because we were like, let's try it out. Why not? I'd like to, like, sometimes do that.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Like, if we're just not feeling like recording a one-off or if we have nothing really in the barrel. Like a shorter episode. We should make like a, we should make like a break off Super Mega Cast series where it's like tinier, like 10, 20 minute episodes. And some days just be like, here you go. If you remember when we first started out, you might be able to kind of see this by the videos we uploaded, but we wanted to cut the videos down as much as possible.
Starting point is 00:02:42 Some were like seven minutes and stuff. Some of the gameplay were like five minutes. We wanted it to be like fast, quick, get in and get out. And then we kind of, we became more comfortable with the content we were making in terms of making it more of a podcasty vibe. And I think we just became more comfortable on mic, live on mic. So we were new. We were new to it back then.
Starting point is 00:03:02 We were always like doing camera stuff. So we were new. We were new to it back then. We were always like doing camera stuff. And then in 2016, when we finally sat down and we were like, let's start doing podcasts and gaming videos and stuff. That was brand new, which you can go back to our stuff from April 2016 and watch our old Let's Plays. Listen to our first podcast episodes. Where we're constantly, we still do it today.
Starting point is 00:03:25 But I feel like really back then with the editing, we were just punching people in the face. Oh, with the editing? Yeah. It was just like, I mean, we still do that today but I feel like really back then with the editing we were just punching people in the face oh with the editing yeah it was just like we still do that with our personalities I guess but our raging personalities our fucking insane alter egos but just think this time next year Ryan yeah Super Megacast is gonna be on episode like 100 something it's gonna be
Starting point is 00:03:41 like okay so this year if you remember we didn't start 2017 by doing Super Megacast. We started by doing Talking Show, which was like a little experiment we did at the beginning of this year. Because we canceled the podcast for the Talking Show. And then after a couple episodes, we were like, let's just bring the podcast back. I like that more. I don't like paying attention to my face. I just like talking comfortably.
Starting point is 00:04:01 Yeah, exactly. So we're like, let's bring that back. So we started, I think, 2017're like, let's bring that back. Um, so we started, I think 2017 like episode 32 got to 74, which means what's 74 minus 32, Ryan, 74 minus 32. Um, wait, 74 minus 32. Yeah. Okay. So we're going to go 64, 54, 44, 42. I'm doing the same thing in my head right now. I'm sitting here like, I don't know the answer. 42? Something like that.
Starting point is 00:04:27 So let's say we did 42 episodes this year. 44 minus 32 is 42. No, no, no. 74 minus 32. 74 minus 32 is 42. Yes, you're right. It is 42. So let's say every year we release, on average, 40 episodes of this podcast.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Okay. Probably a little more. That's a roundabout way of getting there. Well, I didn't know how to do the math. That's why I asked you. I was like, I'm gonna be the fucking champion of our mathematics. It's better than me. Is it?
Starting point is 00:04:55 Both of us together trying to solve something is probably worse than us apart. That's true because for some reason our wires just start crossing and we're like, we start looking to each other like, no, I'm not wrong. And then I get like a false sense of confidence from you. And then you get a false sense of confidence from me. And we both say the wrong answer.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Yeah, it's always wonderful. But I was going somewhere with this. 74 plus 40. What's that one, Ryan? 74 plus 40 is 104. That's like 100. 104. No, wait, 114.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Yeah. So we'll be like, by this time next year, we'll be in like the early 100 teens. Maybe like around 120, 110, 120. That's a shit ton of episodes, man. I mean, this is a shit ton of episodes. Like, 74 episodes? We bring it up almost every podcast. Oh, fuck, I gotta stop doing that.
Starting point is 00:05:39 I always do that. I'm like, man. At the beginning, can you believe we've made it this far? It's gonna make it a whole lot more sad when we finally end the podcast i know that's gonna happen at some point no shut up it's not no can you see me being like an 80 year old man i'm like episode 627 man ryan that's a lot of episodes i could see like i could see super mega ending and you and i continuing a podcast or maybe the same podcast i could i could
Starting point is 00:06:05 i could definitely see that because podcasts oh yeah in of themselves are their own business and so we're kind of mixing it in with youtube so i how many people do you think listen to our podcast just for the podcast how many people are just like they don't watch anything else in the channel they just know what's for the podcast and they like, and they don't really dabble with anything else. Maybe some live action videos every now and then. It seems that most of the time when we get recognized in public, they always mention the podcast. It's never the gaming stuff. Well, it's sometimes the gaming stuff.
Starting point is 00:06:36 But those are the people that go outside. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. It's like the main thing people bring up is the podcast. Like, I love your podcast. Or I listen to your podcast. Or I was surprised by how many people say, oh, I was just listening to your podcast like an hour ago. I was like, oh, really?
Starting point is 00:06:50 Wow. We actually got – we were at Disney World recently and Ryan was making some kind of joke about Sigourney Weaver watching our channel. And he was loudly exclaiming. We talked about it. I said, yes, yes, daddy likes. He comes in with his hand. Like, as – like, Ryan got recognized as he it. I said, yes, yes, daddy likes. He comes in with his hand. Like as, like Ryan got recognized as he was saying, yes, yes, yes, daddy likes.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Just like, and he does not say that often. I will, I will stress that point. And the one time he is like loudly exclaiming it. That's coincidentally as a viewer walks up and says, Ryan? He loves the podcast though. I don't know. I don't want to, is that his sister? Or is that his, was that his girlfriend with him? I don't want to just.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Maybe just a friend. It was Florida. It could have been both. True. You know? But. I think it was his girlfriend. So how did you like the Avatar ride?
Starting point is 00:07:34 Did we already talk about it? Because you went on it. I didn't. I don't remember if we talked about this or not. That's the thing. Like, we've been so busy lately. Did we even talk about our Disney trip? I don't fucking know.
Starting point is 00:07:44 I don't think we did. I don't remember. I don't think we talked about our Disney trip? I don't fucking know. I don't think we did. I don't remember. I don't think we talked about our Disney trip. We got a story when we went to Waffle House with Aaron and Jory. Yeah. And Vernon. And Vernon, yeah. And he got steak at Waffle House for some reason.
Starting point is 00:07:55 He'd never been. I wanted to slap Vernon so hard when he said, I'll have a steak and eggs. I was like, Vernon, it's Waffle House. Why are you getting steak from Waffle House of all places? Is there a sign shaped like a bunch of little steak grill marks? No, it's waffles. Yeah. Well, if he wants to get steak, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:08:12 But because it was his first Waffle House experience, I was like, the steak's not going to be good. And it's going to taint his view of Waffle House. Exactly. I've never had the steak there, though. But it's very thin. So there are poor cuts of steak that don't have any fat. It's just like, it's kind of like
Starting point is 00:08:25 I guess a little more juicy jerky. Yeah. Like a big old honking piece of jerky. Yeah, exactly. Like jerky you could easily chew. I mean honestly it didn't look that bad. It was gray though. Did you notice how gray it was? It looks more like a patty than a steak though. Yeah. He said it was good though. And if Vernon said the steak was good, I mean
Starting point is 00:08:42 he's a steak boy so if he said the steak was good I'd trust him on that. His iron deficiency as Aaron was trying to be his doctor. I think you probably want steak because you have an iron deficiency. And I'm like, how does that make sense? And you're like, you crave things because your body needs them. And I was like, so I didn't know that, if that's true. That apparently you crave certain foods because your body needs whatever. You crave water because you're thirsty.
Starting point is 00:09:06 You crave food because you're hungry. You crave certain things because you need it. Just like how much, just even the thought of you wanting to climb into a warm bed when it's super cold. Everything's linked to just your body wanting to fix something or be something. Well, I knew that, but I didn't know it was specific like vitamins. It's like, oh, my body knows that i get vitamin a from this food so i'm craving this because my body needs vitamin a like i i guess if i if i'm craving gummy bears that's because i have a sugar addiction and my body wants to needs that sugar maybe i don't know have you ever put gummy bears
Starting point is 00:09:41 on ice cream it's really good that is oh they get oh, they get real hard. They get like real tough. And it's cold. And so it's like, you don't really taste the gummy bears that much. They kind of like, some of it leaks onto the ice cream. It's mainly just for the act of chewing on something. It's nice, man. Gummy bears used to be my go-to ice cream topping, gummy bears. Like I would get sweet cream flavored ice cream, throw some gummy bears in there. Man, I haven't had that in years. Here's what I don't like. I don't like putting the gummy worms on ice cream, throw some gummy bears in there. Man, I haven't had that in years. Here's what I don't like.
Starting point is 00:10:05 I don't like putting the gummy worms on ice cream. I like the gummy bears more because the gummy worms have a different kind of, they're longer, they're bigger, they have a different texture. Too much. Exactly. I just want little bites.
Starting point is 00:10:16 But my go-to will always be vanilla sprinkles in a waffle cone. Rainbow sprinkles. That's my go-to. It's so good. That is my go-to. You can't go wrong with it. Like, it doesn't even matter
Starting point is 00:10:27 if it's soft serve or regular. I really like vanilla soft serve with rainbow sprinkles. Yeah. That's fucking good. Also chocolate sprinkles. Like, those are great on soft serve too. It's the best, man.
Starting point is 00:10:35 I feel like I would like the chocolate sprinkles if I was sitting down to watch a great holiday flick, but I think rainbow sprinkles is more than not my go-to sprinkles. Man, just sprinkle. You can't go wrong with sprinkles.
Starting point is 00:10:48 You're talking like fucking NPR about sprinkles. Yeah, sprinkles. And their mics are like so fucking beautiful. They're my go-to sprinkles. The Rainbow Sprinkles have a different flavor. Like, when I talk about how chalky they are, it's not a negative connotation in the terms that I use um the the thesaurus that I am flipping through my brain currently it's it's not a
Starting point is 00:11:11 negative woman it's a positive one in terms of in regards to rainbow sprinkles in PR like I remember like I flip at the radio stations and it's like yeah all right and you get to NPR and you can hear like every ounce of spit in their mouth because their microphones are like $20 million. They have really good interviews sometimes. There's this one interview of a guy that was like mugged with a machete in an alleyway. And like he had a limb chopped off and he was near death. They like hacked him up really well. I'm like, how do you – they just interviewed him about his experience.
Starting point is 00:11:42 It was really just interesting. Yeah. It's not just a – I'm getting kind of tired of the news cycle. Dude, NPR is great. I love NPR. R versus D. Yeah. NPR has always done great informational pieces and interviews and stuff.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Yeah. But because it is the last podcast of the year, the final year of the episode. We asked you guys on Twitter today. We said, hey, because we're recording the last one tonight, give us some questions and we'll answer them. We might answer them. We can't get to all of them, of course. So we picked out a handful of questions. Now, we're not doing like a huge Q&A like we've done in previous episodes. It was kind of just a mini one.
Starting point is 00:12:20 We picked out some ones that we liked. It's probably going to feel long. Yeah, it totally could feel long. Do you want to start it? Sure, man. Okay. We'll start with mini one. We picked out some ones that we liked. It's probably going to feel long. Yeah, it totally could feel long. Do you want to start it? Sure, man. Sure. We'll start with this one. Urik Saladbar, or Urik Saladbar.
Starting point is 00:12:33 I don't actually know how to say his username. Urik. Urik Saladbar. Urik Saladbar, maybe. He's a fantastic animator, and he has made crazy good Super Mega Animated in the past. So go look that up, because that's fucking amazing. But he said, when you guys are discussing ideas about making content like My Two Lovely Uncles behind the camera, what makes you guys both know an idea is worth committing during pre-production? And that's a good question.
Starting point is 00:12:58 That's a really good question. I say it's just how much it makes you laugh without thinking about it right off the bat. I'll even go, when you came down, because Chris shaved his head at the time. Yeah. And so that was just funny. He was like, Ryan, if you shaved your head too. I was like, that's funny. I had to shave my head specifically for that video because I thought it was funny.
Starting point is 00:13:19 I was trying to actually grow my hair out at the time. I was like, okay, I'll sacrifice all of my hair. For this video. And look of my hair for this video and look goofy as fuck for this video because it's worth it and much like um uh he's gonna i guess it's just called fuck your mom on syndigo yeah uh it was you and daniel in his room just playing with a tune and it was funny you came to me and like i laughed right away so we're all three okay it's like a three-way confirmation of this is a good idea right off the bat because if you have to think about something like come on it's funny because then i'm not i don't think it's worth making i guess oh exactly
Starting point is 00:13:52 like i was gonna say the same thing as you i was gonna say the way we both know an idea is worth committing before we do it is how much do we laugh at it genuinely if ryan and i come up with an idea and we're like laughing our ass off at this idea that's how we know it's like okay we gotta do it then if we're both like eh then maybe it's like alright then we can work with it some but like let's say we're shooting something and Ryan has an idea on like
Starting point is 00:14:15 some pose he'll have during the thing and it's like I die laughing it's like yes we have to do that one so it's like that's how you know I guess really it just depends on and that's the thing with making content is like i guess don't try to make it funny for other people try to make it funny for you first and do what you think is funny angie has made it easier than ever to connect with skilled professionals to get all your jobs projects done well i absolutely love this because you know if you own a home it can be really hard

Yeah, because if you try to make it funny for other people it's very easy to tell when you're trying to be funny for other people for an audience and i get that like we we are technically trying to be funny for an audience but at the end of the day uh we both started uh with sketch comedy channels that were super small. I remember when Cyndago had 50 subscribers,
Starting point is 00:16:06 and that was a big deal. Yeah, I remember when Kids with Problems only had 50. Get us to 100 subscribers, come on! So we made it for us and our friends, and I still have that mindset when I make shit. I don't have this, you know, production, I need to have everything. It's nice to have everything planned out,
Starting point is 00:16:22 but I care more about, I guess, how much fun it is. Exactly. If I'm not having fun while making it I just I start to I think the content degrades in quality. Yeah because you and I both came from the same different things but for the same thing where we both started out with our own sketch comedy channels that we made with our friends
Starting point is 00:16:40 and we made them for the same reason because we wanted to make things that we thought were funny and that were fun to make in the process and then we came together and now we did all all of this and now we're right here so when we still do live action we still keep that same mindset because it's i mean that's how we've always done it that's how it's been the most fun so we're gonna keep doing it that way it's like two things i guess just to add on to that or a few things I don't know is a part of it is uh it's like I haven't seen this and I would like to see what it would look like so I want to make it because it's funny and I want to see I want to see a physical representation of this idea exactly
Starting point is 00:17:17 yeah and um and also um hold on one second it was yeah. I was just going to say there are a lot of times where Matt and I, he'll come to me or I'll come to him and I'll think this idea is super funny. And then the other person's reaction will kind of be like, you understand that it's like, okay, this idea isn't clicking. And it's nice to be a duo in those terms. Oh, yeah. Because there are ideas maybe that I think would be funny that I haven't thought out all the way. And then if I just went off and did it, it probably, I don't know, there needs to be a system of checks and balances sometimes. And I think it works well. Man, I love like creating sketch comedy and stuff with other people because I'll have an idea or they'll have an idea.
Starting point is 00:18:03 And then people build on it, on a good idea. and it makes it even better yeah yeah uh thank you for that question yeah mr salad bar next question comes from kill kill bill the rapper the rapper kill bill it is the rapper kill bill we love you He's a really good underground rapper. You guys should listen to him. I went to your YouTube recently, Mr. Bill. And, uh, Mr. Bill. Mr. Bill. He should go by Lil Bill. But he's Big Bill.
Starting point is 00:18:35 That's true. He is. He's like a nice little snorlax. I'm not calling him fat. I'm just saying he's a big guy. Oh, man. But his question is, how big are your wieners well actually you can start off if you want yeah sure i uh as a former protest after uh pizza gate i removed mine so zero inches
Starting point is 00:18:56 zero inches because i removed it okay yeah i you know like a capri sun i got like a like a little capri sun straw contraption rigged up in there to pee out of. It works fine. I'll answer honestly. You ever see that video of the guy with the world's biggest penis? Yeah, the guy that injected it with like silicone every day? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:15 I got, he ended up getting plastic surgery and legally changing his name to Ryan McGee and moving to South Carolina. That was me, dude. What if like you weren't joking and this is how you came out about it? Like that video? Yep, that was me. People start doing enhance on certain pictures of us and matching. He has a mole right here on his eye.
Starting point is 00:19:38 This guy also has a mole on his left eye. It's the same person. Some CSI shit. They have the same wristband. You've been wearing the same bracelet ever. Why did that guy do that? Why did he inject silicon? Okay, is it silicon or silicone?
Starting point is 00:19:51 Because there's a difference between the two. I'd say silicon. He put silicon. Silicon. Silicon. Silicene. I don't know. I'd say Silicon Valley.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Say whatever you want. Tomato, tomato, pecan, pecan. How about I'll make sure it's wrong on both. I'll say silicon. Okay, yeah, pecan, pecan. How about I'll make sure it's wrong on both. I'll say silikene. Okay. Yeah, that's fine. He puts silikene in his penis every day with a needle until his, if you haven't seen it, you should look it up.
Starting point is 00:20:11 His penis is like, it's like a, it's massive. I don't even, it's like a baguette. Over 12 inches. You've seen it, right? Yeah. I can't remember that much. It's, it's just big. Like I'm trying to think of the best thing compared to um like five steaks
Starting point is 00:20:26 i've seen a lot of big dicks including my own because i i couldn't hold together dude no it's not so tiny it's not like a big dick i know it's not a big dick it's pretty average no i'm talking about this guy it's okay it's a blob it's not it doesn't even look like a penis it's just like a mass and he pulls it out of his pants and slaps it down. And it's clearly like he... This guy clearly has some kind... I swear, he has to have a mental illness to do this to himself. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:20:54 But if you want to go look it up, it's look up like man puts silicone in his penis. Look, I'm more proud of my balls than my dick. Are you? Yeah. All right. I could say that. Listen, I'm not much of a balls than my dick. Are you? Yeah. All right. Listen, I'm not much of a shower in the penile region.
Starting point is 00:21:11 But my balls, they are. Tell that to a girl. Magnifique. I know you might not like my penis too much, but my balls are really something else. And no, I don't. That's not something I legitimately have pondered before. I have not gone, damn, I do love my balls more than my penis. Hey, there's people out there listening right now that I'm sure love their balls more than their penis.
Starting point is 00:21:33 It's just a bit, guys. You know, people, honestly, you and I joke so much and sometimes never reveal it that people were wondering if I really smoked or if the whole thing was just a gag. Oh, yeah. I do smoke. Trying to quit. He's trying. The game got him on the right steps. Yeah. A lot of you are being little assholes in the comments of that series, though.
Starting point is 00:21:56 Oh, man. He's not reading it. If he knows it's bad for him, then maybe he'll quit. Oh, I never thought cigarettes were bad for me. The problem is that I know they're bad for him, then maybe he'll quit. Oh, I never thought cigarettes were bad for me. The problem is that I know they're bad for me. The addiction negates it. And also makes me use addiction as an excuse to stop quitting.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Boom. Ryan. See, I know this shit. Dude, just do it. You know what you should do to yourself? Do what like parents do when they find their kids smoking a cigarette. Smoke an entire carton. Like smoke a carton, not a pack, a carton of cigarettes. I guarantee you'd
Starting point is 00:22:26 quit after that though. Probably, because I'd be so sick of it. Let's do it, man. Okay. You help me? You'll smoke a carton, I'll smoke a carton. I'll smoke a carton too, man. As a non-smoker, I will smoke an entire carton with you. I think I'd throw up probably after two. I'd turn yellow. Like a cigarette? Yeah. And then you'd become a human cigarette.
Starting point is 00:22:42 And then God would pick you up and smoke you. And then that would be your ultimate fate it all comes around thank you for the question Kill Bill Ug Fran I don't know if there's two H's Ug Fran said how's Ming doing? I worry about her
Starting point is 00:22:58 I'll let you answer this one Ryan I wouldn't worry about Ming I've seen her a few times she seems to be fully stable Really? I saw her sleeping the other night She's not walking around the alleyway
Starting point is 00:23:10 Well she wasn't sleeping I saw her sleeping the other night She sleeps in the alleyway sometimes I haven't seen pushups in a long time Most of that crew is kind of Gone I saw the Mexican white supremacist Today
Starting point is 00:23:24 He's around a lot It's kind of sad as the year is wrapping up gone. I saw the Mexican white supremacist today. Yeah, yeah. He's around a lot. Yeah. It's kind of sad. As the year's wrapping up, we're giving our final Ming report and I don't know. A lot of the people are just kind of blown away with the wind. And Ming's kind of by herself and more stable now, which all the power to it. I'm glad.
Starting point is 00:23:39 I'm so glad to hear that. Yeah. I mean, at some point we're going to close the chapter on Ming. Maybe that's when we move. Maybe. Who that. Yeah. I mean, at some point, we're gonna close the chapter on Ming. Maybe that's when we move. Maybe who knows. Yeah. But it's been cool. It's been a journey with Ming, man. And that is sad to think about. Before the podcast
Starting point is 00:23:55 ends, I'm sure there will come a day when we will wrap up the Ming report. We need to stop talking about her. But yeah, I mean that's the final Ming report of 2017, guys. She's doing all right. Still doing fine. You can just relax and feel good. Enjoy your holidays, your break, knowing that Ming is in good spirits and health. And to kind of let you guys hear how well she's doing, I'm going to do my impression,
Starting point is 00:24:20 but of how she sounds now. Okay. First, I'm going to say how she used to say shit. And then the second phrase will be the same phrase, but how she acts now. First I'm going to say how she used to say shit and then the second phrase will be the same phrase but how she acts today. Alright man. First phrase you remember. Got a cigarette? Now it's hey man you got a cigarette? It's that different?
Starting point is 00:24:36 Yeah. Wow. You know what I imagine is probably one of those long periods recently where she disappeared. She was probably getting some help. Yeah. And now she still doesn't have a home, but she at least is in more of a stable place mentally. So good for her. She's still got her brother out there, though.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Yeah. Because her brother's also on the streets, and they're chill. Yeah. All right. Anyways, Clueless wonder asks the next question and the question is if hollywood were to make a live action movie of super mega what celebrities would you want to play the matt watson and ryan mcgee oh man i should have thought of this one before i sat down i did
Starting point is 00:25:21 not i don't i have no idea who i'd want to play me um let's pick who would play each other but it has to be okay we'll we'll do that yeah but uh so will this be as we currently are or just at any stage in our life right now as we are okay right now as we like take a screenshot yourself who's playing you in a movie i'm gonna say remember the little jewish kid from it i mean not it elf It, Elf? That kid? All grown? Do you know what he looks like today? No, he's going to play you, though. Okay, he's going to play me? No, in all actuality, I don't know who would play you, man.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Yeah? Maybe, dude, I don't know. The kid from Elf. He's playing you. Okay, that's cool. The first thing that came to mind was steve buscemi but i can't because he's too old to play okay but real talk i saw a picture of steve buscemi last night and it was a young picture of him and i was shocked how much it looked like me you're gonna
Starting point is 00:26:16 look like that made me feel awful what are you talking what do you mean he's a he's a nice guy bro you know no i love steve busmi, but he's known for looking weird. He looks kind of a little off. I love him like crazy. Like, he honestly is a fan. He's in my top ten favorite actors, Steve Buscemi. I love him. But, of course, you know, he looks a little weird.
Starting point is 00:26:36 He's known for his look. He has a very unique look. Yeah. So then when I saw a young picture of him, and it was strikingly similar to myself, that didn't make me feel good. So the kid from Elf and Steve Buscemi are going to play us in the official super mega movie. Can I... I'm charging my phone. Do you have your phone with you?
Starting point is 00:26:51 Why? Because I want to show you the picture of young Steve Buscemi. I want you to see this. Can I just look up young Steve Buscemi? Yeah, look up young Steve Buscemi. He looks like me. Are you going to put up a picture for the audience to see? Yeah, I'll put it up right now, okay?
Starting point is 00:27:02 Well, I'll wait until Ryan looks it up, so then you guys get a reaction at the same time. So go ahead and look at the screen. It's where he's... We could also get this guy, Bill Skarsgård, to play you. Oh, yeah. But I'm just going to keep... Steve Buscemi.
Starting point is 00:27:17 He's playing... That is you, dude! Right? That's me! Okay, and there's a picture of my grandfather when he was in the military. Looks exactly like that. Looks exactly like that. Looks exactly like that. I love Steve Buscemi, man.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Imagine like a biopic about us, and it's the kid from Elf and Steve Buscemi, but Steve Buscemi is playing 21-year-old me. Wait, there's already a meme about Steve Buscemi doing that, where he's like, how do you do, fellow kids? I love that one, though. Wow. It's like full meme circle. That's crazy, man.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Look at that. All right. Matt, who's like full meme circle. That's crazy, man. Look at that. All right. Matt, who's our next special question asker? From Steph G. Holmes. Stephen Wolfe? Could be short for Stephen, or it's a girl named Steph, or maybe a guy named Steph. I don't know. I think it's going to be like Stephanie.
Starting point is 00:27:59 Okay, it could be Stephanie. It could be Stefan. Stefan, yeah. But Steph G. Holmes asks, what is your album slash song of the year? I don't have a favorite album or song of the year. I have a favorite artist of the year that I was... Yeji. Yeah, Yeji.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Really like Yeji. She's pretty good. I really like listening to her shit, and I wish there was some sort of vinyl thing out there. Oh, yeah. She's awesome. She's on 88 Rising if you want to go check her out. Yeah. She makes some good tunes. Yeah that's my artist of the year I guess. Oh man. I think. I don't know
Starting point is 00:28:36 if I could pick one. I have a couple. My favorite couple favorite albums would be I really liked Scum Fuck Flower Boy by Tyler the Creator. Okay. Great album. That is in my top. I also really liked, it's not from this year, but I found it this year.
Starting point is 00:28:52 His name is Rav. He's a rapper that we know. He has an album called Beneath the Toxic Jungle. That is a fantastic album. And then my last, if I had to pick a third, would be MBV by My Bloody Valentine. That's a really good album as well.
Starting point is 00:29:06 Okay. So those are my top three favorite albums. I'm probably going to think of one later and be like, fuck, I should have said that. But those are my top three that can come to mind right now. I think like out of like musically. Musically. Yeah. What I've listened to most this year, if I could see how many plays and how long I played it for,
Starting point is 00:29:23 it would definitely be Yeji shit it would be Kill Bill's Ramona album yes it's always in my car and whenever it plays or I put it on it's like okay yes I'm just gonna listen to the whole fucking album yeah it's really nice driving through LA listening to it oh it's wonderful
Starting point is 00:29:39 actually I would have listed that as one of my favorites this year but it was one of my favorites like a couple years in a row. I just found out about it this year. And then, I can't remember. I don't know what the album is, but Glass Animals by... I think... Just hold on.
Starting point is 00:29:56 Oh, Glass Animals is a band? Yeah. Oh, okay. Let me see. Let me see what the album is called. Also, it might be Rav. I don't know if it's Rav or Rav. I really don't know.
Starting point is 00:30:07 I like him a lot, though, and he's a really cool guy, and you should check out his music. The album, oh, it's from 2014, but it's the album that I've listened to, like, a lot. Hey, it doesn't have to be from this year. Zabba or Zabba. Ooh. Yeah, only two of my albums, or only one of my albums is from 2017,
Starting point is 00:30:25 which is the Tyler the Creator one. I'm not like super hip and happening with the latest beats, bro. The latest pop music? Yeah, I just kind of, I just find shit because people recommend it to me.
Starting point is 00:30:38 You'll watch a bunch of 88 Rising and then all of a sudden Yeji will pop up and I'm like, ooh, who's this? And then boom. There you go, man. Starts a wonderful train. Yeah, my favorite genre of this year, though, rising and then all of a sudden Yeji will pop up and I'm like ooh who's this and then boom starts a
Starting point is 00:30:45 wonderful train yeah my favorite genre of this year though has by far been I know you're gonna laugh I really like Japanese retro it's called city pop like Japanese 80s music oh I thought you were gonna say like hip hop no I got a lot more into that this year
Starting point is 00:31:01 Japanese retro stuff just old Japanese stuff like 70s 80s music from Japan. When I went to Japan, I really got into it. And I listened to a lot of that on YouTube. Got a big collection of it now. So that's my favorite genre of 2017. And if I had to pick a genre to define my year, it would be that one. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:19 So yeah. Anyway. The next person who's asking a question is username Easter. Okay, I meant to type Eater. I accidentally typed Easter. Okay, so username Eater. Username Eater. Not Easter.
Starting point is 00:31:31 Okay. My bad. They ask, what is your favorite moment on Super Mega 2017 and what is the biggest accomplishment you've made this year? Favorite moment on Super Mega. Look, all these recording sessions are kind of coming to a blur. Yeah, you can say your favorite series or video. Fuck, what did we do?
Starting point is 00:31:51 What did we do this year? Well, it's cheating. It's come out by now. I think my favorite recorded series this year was the RuneScape series that is currently on Game Grumps. Yeah, so it's not even a super mega series but that was really a funny one wait yeah i don't know if it's coming it has it comes out right after the holidays and this is episode 74 this comes out uh oh wait maybe might come out like today yeah okay yeah i think we're good. Sorry. It was, I had a good time.
Starting point is 00:32:25 I was editing it. I was laughing. I was like, it just felt like a really nice, positive recording session. Also, I don't know if it was this year, but I also liked Katamari with Ding Dong and Julian. Oh, really? I don't know if that was this year or not. That was this year? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:41 I like the recording session, but my favorite was the RuneScape one, just because I think there was a lot of nostalgia i don't have nostalgia for um katamari but i do for runescape so i think the nostalgia definitely tilted me well that's what happened because i was gonna say my favorite series we recorded this entire year is probably katamari damasi uh the original one i recorded in 2017 yeah the original one the one with just you and i okay that was that was in june i mean that came out in like january so that was like oh fuck maybe that came out in like march it was early in 2017 okay that's my favorite series i think we've ever done mainly because a it's my first game and it's tinted with nostalgia and b i really had a fun time recording that with you and also when we did
Starting point is 00:33:18 the katamari sequel with ding dong and julian uh that was like some of my favorite recording sessions because they're so funny whenever we bring on guests for a series or a one-off or something i really like the environment it sets off because then there's more things to bounce off of other people and you bring someone else other people who have a i wouldn't say yeah a different sense of humor so they'll think of things more you know differently or quicker stuff like that so we got to bring more guests on for gameplay stuff in 2018 that would definitely do that guys and um in fact uh something we've been talking about with them is in the series we love katamari the sequel we only have like one or two like i think we only have like one
Starting point is 00:33:57 more episode to technically finish that game yeah so i think in 2018 we're just going to record a finale episode of we love katamari to actually finish that series off that's something we're thinking about doing but 2018 we do wanna bring a lot more friends back on to do more stuff with oh wait there's more to that question what's the biggest accomplishment you made this year
Starting point is 00:34:19 I guess in terms of super mega I'd say I'm really proud of, uh, the music videos we released. I'm proud of all the live action shit, dude. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Like the Finn Wolfhard video, both music videos. That was fun. Yeah. It was really fun. It was really fun. What, what other live action stuff did we do this year?
Starting point is 00:34:38 Two lovely uncles. We did, uh, the video with Chris where we just walked around and the famous rice and puke. That was this, that was in 2017, the famous rice and puke. Just all the live action stuff I really like and I hope we get to do more of it in 2018. Oh, there's definitely going to be a good handful of live action in 2018. It ain't going nowhere, guys.
Starting point is 00:34:58 I know we don't upload it that often, but don't expect that to get less in 2018. We're still going to be doing live action in 2018 especially now that we have tucker yeah it is our favorite thing to do though definitely well mine i don't want to speak for you no i do i love doing live action i my favorite thing to do is make music videos i love the music videos i want to i want to do a sketch comedy in south carolina with you just kind of like take it back to where we both started and make one because we haven't made a sketch comedy in south carolina together yeah that'd be cool to just kind of have take it back to where we both started and make one because we haven't made a sketch comedy in south carolina together yeah that'd be cool to just kind of have a setting and shit
Starting point is 00:35:29 because charleston has a lot of great settings for like a oh it totally does yeah got them plantations dude yeah baby uh we're gonna be hiring uh actors to play slaves but only white actors because we don't want to be insensitive we're whitewashing slaves oh man oh my god that's a bad one could you imagine that would be so bad i know could you imagine if that like got nominated for an oscar it would be this big fucking thing. It's just like, what? Oh my God. Like best actor goes to a white man. Best actor goes to Jake Gyllenhaal for uncle Tim. Jake Paul.
Starting point is 00:36:13 Jake Paul. Oh, they happened in 2017. They did happen in 2017. Okay. We'll talk about this after the Q and a, I want to talk about crazy of a year. 2017 has been in general.
Starting point is 00:36:22 No, we'll talk about that after these questions though. Next question. We're going to talk about like both the divorces or been in general. Oh, Jesus. We'll talk about that after these questions, though. Next question comes from... Wait, are we going to talk about both the divorces or just the one? Just one. Okay. Jackson A. Tucker asks, How does it feel knowing you'll never have that degree from USC's Darla Moore School of Business?
Starting point is 00:36:36 It's a very personal question directed at me. That hurts, man. So let's move on to the next one. Okay. Fireburn02, will you ever make a new flash flood episode please those are gold we technically already uploaded a somewhat type thing like that our hanukkah special yeah that was pretty much a flash flood episode if you want to know the reason we stopped the flash flood videos mainly because we're not we're recording these
Starting point is 00:37:02 episodes on the game Grumps capture computer. And the way we do those videos, we didn't realize how much of a virus risk we were to the computer. So we put them on hold. We got a lot of virus threats from those videos. But we'll probably bring back more videos like that. We'll just try to be more careful or just get some really good antivirus software. You have anything to add to that? No.
Starting point is 00:37:31 I mean, I like doing them as a series. They're also a lot to edit. Very, very, very much to edit. But I would like to do more videos like that. I really liked the Omegle bit that was in our Hanukkah special and I definitely want to do those. I'd love to do an Omegle video series like that we should do like a fan
Starting point is 00:37:48 thing where like we invite fans to come on that would be awesome then we actually don't show up and it's just them searching through a bunch of people then we just record them yeah we'll dress up as fans yeah see if they can recognize you okay Gabe Ted Bird asks
Starting point is 00:38:04 can you let me out of the basement and uh my answer to that is as soon as you get a username that's not as terrible as Gabe Ted Bird wow that's bad but in all honesty um Gabe if you think
Starting point is 00:38:20 this is funny uh we gave you a phone through your little fucking air slot so that you could talk to your friends and your parents like you said you would if you're going to use it as an opportunity to embarrass us and call for help you can go fuck yourself all right uh i hope this person does not die before this podcast jesus christ like they're just coincidentally murdered eventually this person's gonna to die. And then I wonder if like anyone will find this moment
Starting point is 00:38:48 play it at their funeral. Oh R.I.P. Gabe to bird. If you spell if you Gabe I'm sorry man. Please change your Twitter handle and put the H and the E in the correct place. Well maybe Gabe the bird. I'm thinking I'm thinking that Gabe the bird was taken.
Starting point is 00:39:03 Okay. Well one thing that is going to be taken is his soul shortly after this podcast is done recording. That is true. It's a little bitch. But Saha Barnes is the next person that's asking a question. Are you sure that's Saha Barnes, not Sarah Barnes? I might have fucked another one up, but we'll just go with Saha Barnes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Would either of you recommend therapy no joke I'm considering it once I get out of high school I would 100% recommend therapy I I need to go start seeing a therapist I have not currently that's on me but I would recommend
Starting point is 00:39:39 if you're having troubles do whatever you can if it's not a therapist talk to a friend, talk to a family member. There's always a hotline through live chat on your computer or through the cell phone.
Starting point is 00:39:54 Just because we're talking about it, the number will be in the description. You need to find someone to talk to, open up about it. Just get the ideas that you think that others don't care about and actually give them to someone uh who can hopefully uh work their magic as a loved one or as a person who has a job that you're all right ryan that i couldn't have said it better myself. Did you just interrupt me, dude? I'm just saying that. I'm kidding.
Starting point is 00:40:27 I totally agree with Ryan. Therapy, fuck the stigma around it. That is going away more and more every day that therapy means you have something wrong with you. I see a therapist. All my friends see therapists. My family members see therapists. Therapy is healthy and it's good for you and you should do it. And if you're in school, actually, like, you're graduating high
Starting point is 00:40:46 school, if you're going to college, a lot of colleges will offer, like, free counseling and free therapy and stuff. And please, for the love of God, if you go see a doctor or a therapist about your problems, be 100% honest with them because they are going to, they might,
Starting point is 00:41:02 I mean, you know, there's a stigma around medication they'll going to, they might, I mean, you know, it's, there's a stigma around medication. They'll, uh, prescribe people, but, um, be 100% honest with them about your thoughts, about your feelings, about the symptoms, about anxiety or anything you're feeling, because that will lead them in to a more productive conclusion for you. Yeah. Don't feel like, like, like if you leave stuff out or lie to your therapist or doctor then you're hurting yourself because they're there to help you and if you're like self-conscious about what they're going to think about your problems or whatever that's stupid because
Starting point is 00:41:33 you're paying the money to help you with your problems it's not like a it's not like a someone that you should care about what they think of you guarantee and it's not a contest but guaranteed they've heard much worse. I guarantee, yeah. Like whatever, however bad you personally think, whatever you are thinking is or have done, they've heard a lot of shit in their line of work. So they are capable to handle it. And if you go to a therapist and you don't feel like they are capable of handling your problems, seek out another therapist. There's a million of them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:07 So the only thing you should feel bad about is if maybe you've. All right. Next question. OK. Oh, it's me. Sorry. You're reading this one. Dr. Clay.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Nine hundred and ninety nine said if you two pulled the plug, what would you do? If YouTube pulled the plug, we'd still keep making shit. We'd either move to a different platform. Not sure what that would be. Or we would start our own website. That's probably what we would do. I don't know. Off the bat, definitely try to figure out a website.
Starting point is 00:42:41 But focus a lot more on a patreon because i think we're thinking we're hopefully in 2018 we'll get maybe a little announcement on that coming soon regarding patreon patreon do podcast uh work our ass off to try to search for more sponsors um and yeah i mean you know the the game's gonna change gotta to change, got to change with it. Yeah. But we, we, we, we wouldn't go anywhere. You'd still get your daily dose of us. Cause, cause you're, we're, we're, we're amazing.
Starting point is 00:43:16 You need us in your life. You need us in your life. You need super mega honey. Ugh. Oh, wow. Uh, uh, next question comes from Harrison Tucker. They ask, can you suggest some penal gland cleaning routines? My shmegma has been out of control.
Starting point is 00:43:37 I do not produce shmegma because I have a circumcised penis. Matt? because I have a circumcised penis. Matt? What I would say is get like a bar of soap, and if you put the bar of soap at the head of your penis, you can stretch the foreskin all the way over the bar of soap. Just staple it shut, and you always got some soap in there. Never even got to worry about it.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Yeah. All right. Magic Logwood says were there songs other than deleted um yeah there were a lot of songs other than deleted i made i straight up made an album and i don't actually make out like cover art and everything i did man i don't know if i have those that's fucking epic Do you want to know what my name was?

Starting point is 00:44:46 Oh shit, that's great, man. Do you want to know? I can actually, if I think hard, I can think of some of the other songs I made, which I no longer have, or maybe they're on a hard drive somewhere. I'll look for them when I go home for Christmas. Okay. But I made a parody of Welcome to the Jungle called Welcome to Walmart. Welcome to Walmart! We sell something in games, everything you could ever want. a parody of welcome to the jungle called welcome to walmart um welcome to walmart

And he showed it off to like, like four years in a row. It was not good. It was so bad. I should email him and see if he still has it. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:45:55 And I made a rap about the news. I just remembered that one too. Really? I made a rap just about how great the news was. I've only made one song. Didn't record it. But it was a song that me and my cousin came up with when we were little lads. Probably when I was about waist high to an average adult. Super young. We had this, I guess, running game where we would

No. No. beat his nuts on his mom's face no no it's just a sick burn and then brought my mother into it then it was a sensual slap on her forehead i'm gonna slow drag across the face where i rest one testicle in each eye socket stop you're talking about your mom no i'm not i'm not saying in general general uh okay whatever and for a late general what for a great no for a great little race general sanders general sanders was colonel sanders like was he in war was why was he a colonel like a colonel of popcorn he was a little tiny little man okay his nickname his nickname was colonel sanders um 2017 as it is almost done has been the craziest year of my life yeah like just it's just been the craziest year i think news wise and just just everything that's happening it It's just crazy, dude. Especially in my life as well.
Starting point is 00:50:45 Like, outside of my life, in the outer world, and then in my personal world, 2017 has been a crazy year. Think about how much crazy shit has happened this year. Well, I can explain how 2017 feels. How? I feel like there's this, like, big... Like, okay, picture this scene.
Starting point is 00:51:03 I'm drinking coffee. No, no, coffee no no no let me make it more personal okay i'm drinking like a mcafe caramel uh what's the frappuccino is that the cold one the cold icy one yeah you can get a cold frappuccino frappuccino with a bunch of whipped cream i'm enjoying that sipping on it and of a sudden, a huge bomb goes off. And just everything gets thrown around the room. And then there's this ringing stage. All of 2017 is that ringing stage. Just boo!
Starting point is 00:51:34 And I'm trying to figure out what's going on. Everything's like ghosting. And you're like... Yeah, exactly. That's what 2017 has felt like for me. I'll be completely honest. Do you remember like this time last year, everyone was like, oh my God, 2016, what a year. 2017 can't get any crazier. And then 2017 was like five times crazier than 2016.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Like way crazier than 2016. It was an entertaining news cycle. Holy shit. 2017 was entertaining as hell. That means 2018 is going to be just as good in terms of entertainment in the news. I do have to say, if years were like episodes of a TV show or seasons, in terms of most entertaining, 2017 has been the best season so far. Yeah. I was like, holy shit, this is insane. Like, we all didn't expect the big twist ending in 2001.
Starting point is 00:52:25 But, I'm kidding. I mean, we didn't expect that twist ending. That's part of the problem. Yeah. But, do you think this time next year when we're recording our 2018 year-end podcast, we're going to be looking back being like, holy shit, man. We thought 2017 was crazy? Every year is something new.
Starting point is 00:52:47 I feel like every year, as you said, it feels like a new season. It does. It really does. Is this season going to be the darker season or is this going to be a more lighthearted season? I have a feeling 2018 is going to be a really good year. Okay. I just have, I just have a gut feeling.
Starting point is 00:52:58 I have a feeling it's going to be crazier than 2017, but it's going to be a good, fun year. We've come to terms with the goofiness of everything that we see on a day to day basis like I really do believe that we have entered some weird alternate timeline where the weirdest shit happens like everyday there's something new that affirms my theory that we are
Starting point is 00:53:16 on the darkest weirdest timeline now the FCC chairman makes like goofy meme videos he's doing the Harlem shake and mocking people that want to save the internet but the thing is, I see a lot of talk show hosts, you know, going, who making fun of his big Reese's Cup mug that he always drinks out of?
Starting point is 00:53:32 And it's like, that's what he wants you to do. He wants you to fucking be pissed. He likes the attention. He's a Shkreli, you know? Yeah, I saw a tweet today that was like, Martin Shkreli was like, I'm the most hated man on the internet.
Starting point is 00:53:46 And it was like a Jeep pie. Hold my beer. Did he say it was Reese's mug? Hold my Reese's mug. But like, he wants, you know, he doesn't care. Stop. Stop. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:57 I saw Seth Meyers. He was like, that coffee mug. The only thing, the only big coffee mug he'll be needing is a big toilet he'll be pooping it in jail because he's uh he didn't actually say that joke but that's the equivalent of what seth meyer sounds like to me whenever i turn him on god damn ryan you need your own late night talk show you do that kind of shit that'd be great but so he was just like making fun of the dude for his coffee mug and i'm like he probably uses that mug because it's goofy it's a reese's cup mug and he wants to get gonna get impressed he wants you to get a reaction out he wants to get a reaction he's like he's like a kid on the schoolyard it's
Starting point is 00:54:32 like he just wants a reaction he'll do he wants some wants attention yeah except the only difference is he's also stripping away you know the potential freedom of the american internet but that's okay it's like i will say donald trump was that person who bullied who probably bullied others in high school pie was the kid who got bullied and now this is his like villainous story of just but instead of a villain coming on like the television hello i will take the internet it's just some goofy dumbass Playing with a fake lightsaber On a green screen Doing the Harlem shake with his big goofy smile The thing is we're doing the same thing
Starting point is 00:55:11 He wants a reaction like this because he loves attention He loves negative press Much like what's the dude who helped Donald Trump it's a very good form of marketing Steve Bannon? No no no there was a documentary on Netflix Oh Roger Stone It's that type of marketing. Steve Bannon? No, no, no, no. There was a documentary on Netflix. Oh, Roger Stone. Yeah, Roger Stone.
Starting point is 00:55:25 It's that type of marketing and it's the same type of shit that I put Jake Paul into. Jake Paul and Keemstar both do it. It's outrageous. It makes you mad. And it works. Yeah. That's the thing. It works. People eat it up.
Starting point is 00:55:42 And I would be lying if I said, I don't consume that stuff too. It's like you naturally want to because it's outrageous. And you want to react to outrageous things. And be like, this is stupid. The thing is,
Starting point is 00:55:55 you know when you're in a group of friends and you collectively hate on something and you feel really good? These people have clued into this marketing dynamic to where they bring a bunch of people together because it's it's cool it's fun to hate on stuff it feels good to be like jake paul's dumb right and then someone else is like yeah i agree with you you're right i am right and you're right too like it's just it's this big communal hate fest like a like a like a group
Starting point is 00:56:21 thing thing yeah and so it's way more powerful than, look, oh my God, he's doing such good for charity and all this other stuff. Even though I've heard that he does do stuff for charity, good on him. Jake Paul is what I'm talking about, not Pi. Yeah, what I do have to say, last thing I'll say about a G. Pi is he's a big fucking goofball.
Starting point is 00:56:45 He is. He's just a goofy man. He's a big fucking stupid goofball. He looks like the mold someone would make for a 3D printer to make a bobblehead of a G-Pi. Dude, that's perfect. Like, if you saw him, that's like, oh, that's a bobble head of this more regular looking person but that's just him cause he did that twitter he did that twitter
Starting point is 00:57:09 angry tweets video where it was the whole thing the rip off of Jimmy Kimmel's thing and one of them says like his head moves like a bobble head and he did this face and moved his head around like a bobble head and I'm like yeah holy shit I'm seeing it now
Starting point is 00:57:25 he does have a, I think he probably has the most punchable face of 2017 yeah, and I'm not trying to say this to put myself above him this is, like he legitimately looks that way to me I'm not trying to be like, oh you know, I'm gonna hate on someone and then it's gonna feel good
Starting point is 00:57:42 when other people in the comments agree with me like, he's a fucking big goofy dumb and then it's gonna feel good when other people in the comments agree with me like he's a fucking big goofy dumbass and it's fun watching his bullshit yeah and that's kind of the problem with all these people it's fun watching them same thing Donald Trump
Starting point is 00:57:57 the big man himself he's been in office for over a year yeah so well not as of right now but as of next month yeah well as of next month he Yeah, well, as of next month, he'll you know. But he's been around for a while. He's been elected president for over a year. I saw something I retweeted, some like, some
Starting point is 00:58:13 fake Donald Trump account that was like tweeting that Hillary Clinton was like, blow me or something. I retweeted it. I wish that was him. Wait, look, that was over two years ago when I retweeted that. So he has been in the public realm for that long. Is that too far for Donald? Blow me.
Starting point is 00:58:30 We're reaching a point where it may be not. Would that be too far? If he said that one day, it would be this big. Could you believe he said that? Yeah, and then we'll forget about it three days later. The news cycle would continue. Would it really be that surprising? He wouldn't get impeached for it.
Starting point is 00:58:41 Nothing would happen. And then the news cycle would continue. So go for it, Donald. Well, you can only be impeached if you get blown. Yeah, we learned that one with Bill Clinton. I did not have sexual relations with the woman. Yeah, you did, Bill. Stop lying.
Starting point is 00:58:55 Dude, he fucking nutted in the Oval Office. He blew that little freckled cock. He blew a bunch of little bills all over my face. All over her dress and shit. Fuck yeah. He spilled his little Bill Clinton brand ranch dressing all over her dress. The dress was like smothered and covered. It was literally like you dipped that thing in a vat of semen. If it was on the Waffle House menu, I'd order it smothered and covered.
Starting point is 00:59:18 Because that's how it comes. Yeah, that's how Bill comes. Yeah, not bad, buddy. Looking back over the year, I I did I had some shitty moments this year but I had a really great year I got to go to Japan twice got to do a bunch of fun stuff with you we made some great videos yeah man
Starting point is 00:59:33 I've had a good year man and I want to thank you for for sticking with me this year and making some good shit with me and having fun you're a good friend you're my right hand man you're my right-hand man. You're my big friend now. Thanks, man.
Starting point is 00:59:48 You're my big friend. You used to be my bigger friend, but now you're losing weight. You're also my big friend. People are overblowing my weight loss. It's like, he's lost so much. I'm like, I've lost a little bit. You've lost more than a little bit. You really have.
Starting point is 01:00:02 I feel like I look in the mirror and it's like i i can tell a little difference but i think people are because if you look at like the grumps picture that has us in the what is that called the the live streaming area the lounge area all the comments just ryan oh, Ryan, you lost so much weight. I mean, thank you. I'm surprised that so many people are noticing, and I've just been counting calories. That's all I've been doing. Well, I mean, you still are a fat fucking pig, but you have lost a lot of weight,
Starting point is 01:00:35 and I'm very proud of you. Thank you, guys. Thank you, Matt. Absolutely, man. You're trying to gain weight. I'm trying. I haven't noticed really anything yet. I've noticed a small influx in my pectoral muscles.
Starting point is 01:00:47 That's good. That's good. But you can't see that unless I have my shirt off. And I don't have my shirt off around other people very often. If you build muscle over your skeleton, they won't be able to see your bones. That's true. So you'll be good. 2018 will be the year I transform into a huge ripped model.
Starting point is 01:01:02 Just make your muscles big. But you have to eat a lot if you're gonna gain muscle. Took your shirt off. What do you think? See, like, Matt, like, don't face me. Like, turn around. Like, away from you? Tense your back up. I have no back muscles, man. No, but your back, like,
Starting point is 01:01:18 it looks like a, like, I wish my back had that much definition in muscles and structure and shit. Mine's just flabby still. I'm hoping to get some structure in my back at some point. and muscles and structure and shit mine's just flabby still i'm hoping to get some structure in my back at some point in 2018 like 2017 was the year of weight gain severe weight gain and then weight loss for me i'm hoping 2018 can be more of a just continue on that path and get healthy and be more comfortable in the body that i was born in well that's exactly what i want to do, but the opposite. I want to gain
Starting point is 01:01:45 a lot of weight in 2018. Gaining weight is fucking hard. Do you see, Ryan, do you see any gain in my pectorals at all? I don't look at you that often. Well, maybe you should start. This podcast quickly turned into, like, you just, like, complimenting and looking at the definition of my shirtless body.
Starting point is 01:02:02 Like, we went from talking about a jeet pie and net neutrality to five minutes later I have my shirt off and you're like, look at that back definition. I'm jealous. I'm legitimately jealous of the definition you have on your torso. Yeah, but it's like it's like mainly just bones. You can count my ribs. You can
Starting point is 01:02:18 play xylophone on my ribs. I have disgusting gaping stretch marks. I have hair all over my body. I don't have hair all over my body i don't have hair all over my body i have i look i look like a thick vat of sludge emptied something out onto the legs that is not true ryan that's how i see myself unfortunately well ryan i have to respectfully disagree if 2018 could be the year where i get where i continue on my path of being healthy and i quit cigarettes 100 2018 would look like a good year for me health-wise.
Starting point is 01:02:47 And if that's one extra thing that is positive in 2018, I'm hopefully going to shoot for it. Yes. So, yes. Any way I can help you, man. And I've been enjoying doing fucking super mega with you lately. Like, it's these past few months. I think November is where it kind of hit, like, a really good groove. Especially in December.
Starting point is 01:03:03 Just last year, you and I, you and i you and i these words came out of our mouth we were like should we do you still want to do super mega it lasted all but like 10 minutes before you called me right back and you're like dude you know we're both feeling down let's try to focus um get you know start working you know get back into the grind and we did and you know now at the end of this year I have to say I'm happy where Super Mega is. I'm happy where we are. I'm more happy with it right now than ever
Starting point is 01:03:30 and I really feel like it's going to keep going up and I really do. I mean Super Mega has been a journey man. There's just been so much stuff to it and so many people that we've brought on and met through it and it's really just been a crazy journey.
Starting point is 01:03:46 And there's been ups and downs. And right now I'm really loving where we are. Even though Super Mega is like a 24-7 job, it's not as taxing as it used to be. No. We've really worked into a good groove. And we really have, have like optimized a lot of stuff and i want to use this now to transition into uh we just want to now as this podcast coming to a close and it's the last one of the year we want to sincerely sincerely thank all of you
Starting point is 01:04:19 listening and all of you not listening who have some how supported us over the last two years even more than that when you when people i'm sure there's people back from kids with problems back from oh yeah yeah back from all that shit like like seriously we like looking back on 2017 we cannot thank you guys enough for listening to our podcast, buying our merch, just watching our videos, telling your friends about us, just anything. Just watching us, like just enjoying our content. That means the world to us. And we just want to say so much from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:04:56 I will continue to say this whenever you bring this type of shit up. I will never personally understand why so many people find this shit entertaining and like I'm gearing that more personally towards me like me as a person I didn't think of myself as I said in high school or anything like that as this personality that needed to be out there that wants to be heard type of thing but it is crazy how many people say that they're fans of our work. And it, in my head, I'm like, am I doing,
Starting point is 01:05:27 am I really honestly doing something? I only do let's plays. And then I do a podcast. Then I realized, you know, this stuff, it means a lot to some people. And it just,
Starting point is 01:05:36 you know, it's like a nice kind of like, I like your content. I'm a good fan. There's like two, I guess there's two paths. And I'm super grateful for whatever path you're on, whether it's just for the entertainment or you found a connection like this helps you in some way.
Starting point is 01:05:50 Just because I remember just going to YouTube when I was younger just to get out of the whole school mindset. If I was, someone was giving me a hard fucking time or if I didn't want to think about shit and I just go and laugh. I'll say it. I'll go and laugh. I used to love Smosh. Smosh, dude. Same. smosh was my fucking escape i go and i just laugh at the shit like the
Starting point is 01:06:09 my dumb neighbor videos or whatever they are and now we've somehow done youtube and become friends with ian and that's really weird yeah that's really weird to me i like i love he's the nicest guy i just don't understand how somehow what we've made has somehow brought me to this weird fulfillment of a childhood dream i guess because people don't see him as this but he'll always be youtube royalty to me in like not like i'm gonna like he's a god yeah he's not he's a god to me but he is one of the big ones in my head no matter how inspiration how you perceive smosh today or whatever, if you still like their content,
Starting point is 01:06:46 it doesn't matter. He was probably the first face. Him and Anthony were the first faces I saw on YouTube as this collective that did stuff in a semi professionalist professionalish way. And what I mean by that is like sketch comedy and stuff. And also, if you remember, they started having a schedule food battle every year I'd forget about it and I'd also be like
Starting point is 01:07:09 food battle if they sent out a teaser trailer I'd be like what? They'd vote on what foods and shit I used to be super into that. No because like I remember like when I was like first getting into YouTube it was just people uploading videos like my cat made this funny sound and then there's these guys that come along and they're making like actual produced videos for YouTube.
Starting point is 01:07:26 And honestly, that's what inspired me to start making videos. So, thanks Smosh. Their first video I saw was when they uploaded the Pokemon theme song thing. That was my first thing. I remember whose house I was. I was at a friend's house. I can't remember what grade it was in. Probably middle school or something early that
Starting point is 01:07:45 was like I think fourth grade yeah it was probably then like I could see that being crossroad wow and he's still doing smosh I was in fourth grade when he started that that's crazy it is it's but I guess the point is you know I I was a part of a little community at the time I go in the comments see how other people thought and as I said if you're here for just strictly entertainment to be entertained, no fault at you. Thank you. I appreciate all the support you've given us, but also to the people who feel like this is a community. I want to say thank you for being a part of that community. And I hope that we don't disappoint.
Starting point is 01:08:25 I hope that we can continue giving you the funnies that you want. That you so crave. And if we don't, because one time, you know, maybe one day we'll be someone's kind of like, oh, I listen to them and now I'm not into them anymore. But I really liked them back in the day. Yeah. Type of thing. And that's just, I can't wrap my head around that shit. I really can't. Just because I'm me and i'm living this life like we matt and i have strictly personal
Starting point is 01:08:50 lives outside of youtube that takes up a large portion of it like all you guys see or hear is the youtube stuff and then we talk about our personal lives every now and then but there there is a separate part of that where we're dealing with other shit personal shit good shit bad shit all in between like real shit that all you guys have to deal with yeah we got to deal with you know relationships with people and family trouble yeah like real shit like that like monetary troubles just like for me this year it was big it's the biggest that it's ever been and i next year i'm gonna travel home to hopefully it's just i've been the most homesick i've ever fucking been yeah like it gets me depressed a lot of days and i just i'm like i just want to go back to south carolina and see my mom and see my dad and see my family and friends i miss them and then i get sad because i'm thinking
Starting point is 01:09:40 all my friends are like fucking moving away and becoming teachers and shit. And it's like, ah, and like now my cousins moved to New York, so I'm not going to see him over the holidays. It makes me super sad. Yeah. That's life though, man. I know. I know. It's just growing up.
Starting point is 01:09:55 It's just, it's weird. It's crazy that, you know, you're 23, you're a man. You should know that growing up, but it's just experiencing it and just kind of talking about it. It's just so interesting. It's like a realization. Yeah, right. It's like a, it's kind of like coming to terms with things,
Starting point is 01:10:11 talking about it. And for people that go through shit, just like we go through shit, that you, that, you know, we are somehow in the midst of that shit, something that you guys can, you know, laugh at, take your mind off of that shit. That's really really special and cool and i guess the last thing i'll say is overall ending this podcast we just want to say thank you so much 2017 has been a wonderful year for our channel uh thanks
