A list of not production. So welcome to the Ani Dona podcast. This has been going for a better year now. Happy anniversary to the Ani Dona podcast podcast. Oh is that what we're doing? Thank you so much for listening. It's been going for about a year now have the anniversary boys. What's been going for a year? The podcast. The what? The anti- Donna podcast. Oh I feel like I feel like I tried to point something out and you just just went right over the top meter. Yeah. What? What? What are we doing?

What is this? Are you guys serious? I'm super unclear here. Do you know when we meet up most weeks and hold the microphones that you're holding in front of your face now? Oh, sorry. Wow, okay. I thought this was an extension of my hand.

I thought this was a long time. I'm just so used to having a microphone in my hand talking into a mic. So this is called a become almost second nature. Sorry, Broden, how long have you been been in a podcast? Yeah, I'm furious. I am furious, boys. We try so hard to keep this brand that is anti-donna going and I think it need you need presence of mind and that you boys don't know that we've been recording a podcast for a year Why do you think we went to Tim mentioned house in Los Angeles? We're hang on this there's a vibe down the middle there because he a drink here midst that you We hung out with Tim mentioned and we just you know, we we chin mentioned which in wax for an hour is to mention who is Tim mentioned and we just, you know, we, we, we, chin mentioned, we chin wags for an hour. Is Tim mentioned, who is Tim mentioned? Oh, all right, Zach's on another level here.

I'm unaware that we're doing a podcast. Zach has forgotten actual whole things. I remember we went to a guy's house. I thought I was Broden's friend. It was Broden's friend. Who's brokedyne? We thought this week would be really good to give a preamble to our guests because...

Tom Skar. Because for the people who do know Tom, he would be... People would think he's fucking massive and quite rightly so, but if you don't know who he is, that would also be quite fair because the way YouTube profile works is the people that know you really know you and the people that don't know you really don't know. Oh oblivious. Tom Skar is a huge sketch comedian from England London. We have to put in context we have a hundred almost 160 thousand subscribers on a YouTube channel Yeah, well, that's a lot of it. Yeah, that's so many TomSka has 4.6 million which is absolutely massive

That's huge. But I can I just interject for a moment here. What's this YouTube channel? All right. I can I'm gonna stop engaging with you I just something just riffing we're gonna fill eight minutes, I thought I'd do some comedy. And I just wanna explain sort of why we need to fill eight minutes is because as we were recording whatever this is, I'm completely unaware of what we're doing right now is, apparently it's called a hot cast. Yeah.

When we were doing that with Tom Skar, Tom, I looked at Tom to look at how we were doing with Tom Skar. No, Tom Armstrong, our sound designer and composer, soundographer, if you will. And he gave me the symbol, which I thought was wrap it up. But actually the symbol he was giving me was keep it going which a very similar symbols Will you just take two fingers point them at each other spin them around each other they what Why you can see how the Tom Fulury happened

To one one looks like wrapping up the other looks like Keep it rolling and and and for me it was wrap it up I would take that as a wrap it up yeah Tom Skar one of his most famous series I'd say is this ASTIF movie series which is spelled ASDF as in your left hand running across the middle section of the keyboard where he does micro sketches and they really are brilliant I would suggest you go watch all of them if you hadn't and if you hadn't you're in the minority because a lot of people have watched them.

So that's all very exciting. I do just have a question. What is this 160,000 subscribers you mentioned? Mark? Yeah. It's just you and me now. Okay. All right. Who? Who is me Right, it's me

Tom scar that was my question though we who is me Why can't answer that you've got to go to three or four years? I know you am I are you talking about the band you am I? Yes, I'm talking about Tim Rogers pub rock rock band from Melbourne, Australia, UMI. I feel like... Right. I feel like that's obvious. And that's what... It's obvious! It's obvious! Yeah. So we're at VidCon in Los Angeles and we're...

We got lucky enough to get a bit of Tom Skars time. Who? Who? We have a YouTube channel? Wait a second. Exactly. Could you give your microphone to Sam? I just... What's a YouTube channel? Wait a second. Zach, could you give your microphone to Sam? I just... what's this YouTube channel? Sam, could you get that off him? All these little videos we've been filming for fun.

Sam, please. Broden, do we have to do... Broden, is your mum coming home soon? Do we have to get out of your place? We're in America, man. I'm sorry, John. I'm sorry, John. Dispramble.

Why? So we can kick... Me and Broden can just have a sane discussion. Yeah, Jordan. Sorry, Jordan. This preamble. Why? So we can kick, me and Broden can just have a same discussion. Yeah, great. What? Tom. Hey, Broden. How are you, mate?

Good, mate. Are you excited for this podcast? I thought this was a really fucking funny podcast. I actually really enjoyed it. I was really good inside. How long has this been? This preamble gone for? This preamble's gone for about five and a half minutes now.

I'm sorry, okay. I'm so confused. Do you hear something, Broden? I'm not as confused as Zach, but I'm pretty confused. This podcast is brought to you as always by Patreon. Patreon, which is our lifeblood and the reason that we can tour the US. So please give generously.

So can I just clarify that day that Mark shaved his mustache and Max filmed it in front of a wall we all pretended to be bikies? That was that private video that's been shown to the world without my knowledge. I'm not talking to you anymore. Why not? Because we're just trying to do a really normal simple preamble, and you are lying and saying that you don't remember very obvious things. We did a panel today of VidCon where you were very intelligent and you talked very intellectually about how we use our channel and how we've made a career for ourselves by using YouTube and

live shows. And now you're acting like you don't know very simple things and it's to be blunt, it is pissing me off. Why? And Mark, you're acting like you don't know very simple things and it's to be blunt it is pissing me off. Why? And Mark you're no better. Oh I'm a bit better. I remembered that we saw Tim mention. Who's this? I'm Mark. What?

Who are you? I'm Zach. What? I am so confused right now. Broden you're gonna have to help me out here. Broden if your mom's coming home soon I feel like we should get out of your lounge room. My Nana had dementia. And you're reminding me of her right now. Wow, that's a way to shut down a joke, you know, like, that's a, that's a real, you can use that next time back. If you, someone else is doing a joke

that you don't like. Oh. I won't use that. Yeah, you should use that. I won't use the dementia thing. Oh, I've got other things I can use, I'm sure. So this is the podcast that we recorded. It's part one of two.

It's very exciting. Did you enjoy it, Mark? I'm sorry about... Sorry about evoking all that stuff. Did I enjoy what? Okay, here we go. Is this going to continue with that? No, no, no, I had, I've had a great time in Philadelphia.

We've been here for about six weeks, making a TV show for FXX. It's been fun. Who do you think you are? Who do you think you are? What do you mean? What is your name? My name's D Reynolds

Great enjoy the podcast everyone what oh shit I'm champ We are in, we are recording his live in a Hilton hotel room in Anaheim, California at VidCon. We've been here for a day and the place is swarming with 14 year old girls. It's brutal, there's so many for it. It's brutal and I'm not going to say I hate it, but it's brutal. It's just the way I like it. It's just the way. No.

And a guest for way I like it. It's just the way. No. Guests for this evening likes it. And we like to start every podcast as I'm sure you know Tom, where the guest will describe who they are and what makes them tick. Yeah. So here is five minutes with Tom's scar. Should we show you Tom's scar? Five minutes, no repetition, no...

No, I have to just talk in one sentence for five minutes. It's more breathless as well if you could. Alright, so you know Thorpe? Who's Charlie and Swimma Thorpe? I hear you aware of him. Do you know Thorpe? I have no fucking idea what's happening. An incredible Olympian, an absolute Australian treasure,

someone that we all have idolized growing up. We built out careers. How fast are the swimmers? You swim. I don't sink immediately. Okay. We'll see. He's better than that. Whoa. He's he's he doesn't not only does he not sink. He breaks records. He sounds like a national treasure. He really is. He ever gone searching for Australian national treasure? No. We got gold to bloons up the rectum. What? Yes. That's used probably all stolen because you're all dirty criminals I know and we want nothing to do with I'm not it's true. Well my family's from Sicily. I

I'm very clean. Yeah, but yeah, but cleanest the coaches we only fuck our cousins and murder each other But how did you wind up in Australia? That's Emad there was a big immigration thing happening in the 60s a look I don't want to get anything You're confusing immigration with it was a great crime with crime and incarceration well, they went no they moved to get away from the crime That's true. Yeah Sam just whispered something This is worth saying exactly So we just uploaded a new haven't you done well video, which is a famous series of hours and by

famous I mean 1% of what Tom releases weekly and we're up to Haven You Done Well 7. Exactly. Exactly. I have you done well 6. Did you call it? And has made it live. Well see, normally I spend a bit more time on the upload, I spend a bit of time making sure it's all good.

I double-check everything. And then once I upload it, I follow the comments for like five minutes just to make sure nothing really bad has happened. But because we were rushing from VidCon to this, I did it in a bit of a rush. And then I uploaded it immediately before the podcast, handed it to Sam

just to double-check that it was all good, but I was pretty confident, and he just leaned over to say, Zach isn't it, haven't you done, well, seven? But I've now changed the name, that's the beauty of this. Like, he could have fixed himself and not publicly shamed you. Oh, what was it? Live in the podcast.

What's the flow? And however, he did, and... Let's see if any of the comments has picked up on that mistake. I did, that's how I found it. They did, that's how we found it. Yeah. They did, let's see if any of the comments is picked up on that mistake They did that's how we found it. Yeah, dude. That's how it all right. Can we delete those comments and then those unit users? Sam just wrote but it does say Sam is Gaslighting the shit out of the comments. There was a comment yesterday. What was his name Pete the pirate?

Gas laying the shit out of the comments. There was a comment yesterday. What was his name? Pete the pirate? Pete the Pirate said something like I don't like this video and he goes can I write this? He's literally just said fuck you Pete the pirate Every now and then you really do have to do that you have to just wait into the comments Just single out one little piece of shit and fuck their day up. I recently, I don't know where, I just, I for some reason, I was just in a fighting mood. I just went in the comments, one person was like, like, you're real fat piece of shit.

I was just like, you know what, let's go. And I told him to cry, cry a fucking river and then drown themselves in it. I really went off on this kid. I had ironed. It felt good. Yeah, it's good. I had a comment the other day.

A Sam posted a picture of me. Him and I went to a weird, some lovely Chinese in San Francisco. And we'll do this in the next Chinese. We did this whole hashtag thing called, Donna Eats Bowl Touring Around America, which was part of our PR team's idea. And it was great and really worked. It was really fun. We ate it some really cool places.

And underneath the photo of me, which is just a really, I thought it was a fine photo of me. Very interesting. Eating some food. The comment was just ugly. Just ugly. Just ugly.

And I was like, it's what he didn't go. I didn't go at him. I just deleted it. Because I was like, now fuck you. My favorite one was I was on Instagram. And there's just a photo of me. And I was in a pretty good mood. I was having a pretty good day.

And then I looked at the comments. Someone had just written, well, it's an exhibit of a fat gun. And I was like, oh my God, and I was so brutally upset it was this teenager. And I was literally going to write this massive thing of just like, that is really rude. That's a really rude thing to say. It's really hurtful. I'm actually a human being. And I'm very sad right now. And then I realized that in the podcast the week before I described to myself as a fat count about eight times. I was like, oh, he was making a rest.

Just a script. We'd talk to me like a good five hours and I really imagine. But that is a problem still because people don't realize that it's okay. You know, it's okay for us to talk about ourselves that way, because it's self-deprecating and that's fine. But when a complete stranger, especially when they're completely anonymous as well, says that about you, it's still. It's like how we can all call each other the end word. But they call it cluster.

You know, that's our work. Yes and no. Yes and no. Okay, but I just want to say we put up a video last week and someone wrote, Broden has gotten Balder. Did that really help? Yeah. Balder. I guess I'm sorry, can we just, can we just see it?

Not a secret. Like how offensive that made that is. But the concept of bolder. I didn't know someone could be bolder. I don't know, there's a difference between seeing that someone is bold by choice and when they're not anymore. Yeah, there's your Vin Diesel,

but then there's your George Costanza. Yeah. So there are varying levels of, but I just shaved my head at different... I'm sure I'm receding, but not at a level that anyone could ever notice. I just decided for that day to shave my head quite low. Well, clearly Billy Bob 86 noticed. Billy Bomb can go fuck his...

Do you know, do you know Heston Blumenthal? This is not funny. It has nothing to do with our core demographic. It's not useful to this podcast But Heston Blumenthal is not balding. He can grow a full head of hair He chooses to shave his head off Initially it was because the shape is head off he shaves his whole head off That's why he's just a neck He's the best. He's actually the only top 50 chef in the world without a head. Without a head.

He has two restaurants. That's what he's doing. So in touch with his stomach and all that jazz. Absolutely. It's just right in there. He just drops it in. It's like, yep, that's good. He's dead.

It's like the throat is like a ticket. It just goes, wow, wow, wow. I walked around. Eston Blumenthal's dead. It's just his body's been running around with, it's just nerves for like 15 years and opening up really successful restaurants. Yeah, all the, what's the gastronomical tree?

What are you creating? Gastronomical. Gastronomical. That's what I wanted to say. And I panicked and said stomach. Yeah. I couldn't. No, you know it somewhere, no.

Gastronomy. No, gastronomy. So it's the movement that the chefs don't like this, it was the critics that gave it this name, but that early 2000s scientific approach to cooking is called Molecular Gastrosonmomy. Oh, you're absolutely right. So, anyway, here's a Mole He's a molecular stress helmet. We've been in a fine form recently with our guest last week. We had Tim mentioned on who is one of the most successful composers. I don't want to say it in front of him. One of the most successful composers.

You know, bro, let me just leave. In the world, but that is... No, we can't do it to you. What you think is true? Oh my God, Christ! I have a very low self-esteem. I know. And I'm like...

And I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like I subscribe a right now. You're right. So when are you gonna do a West End hit? That's the question we're asking. No, please continue. But yes, no Tim was, we were really, really lucky to have him and just as lucky to have you this week Tom. You're all, one of the great YouTubers and a generational talent as far as YouTube. You know, Tom, if you don't know Tom Skar,

immediately the Astof movie series, which is some of the best sketch going around. I'm impressed. You said that right first time, that actually. I listen, I listen and watch. We all do. We were just talking about Trains Gender. That was the micro, we would call those series, they would be a collection of micro sketches.

What would you call it? Yeah, animated little microketch is fine came along and just kind of fucked me, but that's fine. But then now they've had to vine back up. I took the approach that I take with any rival and I just wait. Yes, it's so neat. I've outlived them all and I've planned this to here.

Yeah, no, it's so cool to be here because it's one of these awkward situations. Every time I come to VidCon or any con, there's always a handful of people because it's one of these awkward situations. Every time I come to VidCon or any con, there's always a handful of people where I would consider myself a fan of them in the very traditional sense, where I'm like, who is the quote?

And I mean, so it was by girlfriend Charlie, who was in the room. Yes, Charlie, say hello, Charlie. She, uh, hello. She, she's the one who introduced me to you guys. And what's funny is she showed me a couple of the sketches. And I was like, oh, that's pretty funny. And then being bigger than the workplace came out. And I was like, Charlie, you got to check this out. This is really funny. She's like, you fucking kidding me. Yeah, I just couldn't believe you. Oh, it was so bad.

I'm sorry. I recently just listened to a couple's counseling podcast. So I'm just going to tap into this. Now, how did you feel when he showed you anti-donna as though he'd discovered them? Very betrayed. Okay, absolutely. Do you want to understand that? Well, I basically swung some free tickets to Cianti Donnell Live.

So I think we're straight now. You think that's fine. I can't cry. Thank you so much. And there's a different story happening on Charlie's face. But... Well, we were on something. Uh, Kettaman.

Kett, we were on Kettaman. Well, we were going to talk about one thing that we did, talk briefly about before the podcast started, was, we were on Kettaman. Well, we were gonna talk about one thing that we did, uh, talk briefly about before the podcast, uh, started was that we're here at VidCon. We've never been here before. It's a fucking nightmare. You've been here a couple of times before. Yup.

And the first time you were here. Literally the first time. Um, what happened? I got roofied. Uh, which, if you don't know, that's Rehepnell, commonly known as the date rig drug, right? Yeah popping in a drink and Off they go so So the way this happened was I was down at the bar in a in Vidcon and This guy came up to me and said hey man this girl

Said that this guy gave her a drink, but she doesn't want it. And I don't want it. Do you want it? And I'm like, come on, alcohol, like fuck it. So I just, I take the drink, and then it's just tomorrow. Oh my God. Like that was my second drink of the night. And I drink.

Yeah. So yeah. And it was just the next day. And there were accounts of me like schmoozing and flooding and Having an evening, but I remember fucking none of it and apparently just like dissipated about nine Where did you wake up? I woke up naked and sideways on the corner of my own bed? I oh, so and nothing was sore. Alright, that's I think what the best

scenario is. That's a fantastic, re-hippnall story. A lot of them don't have a way. Well yeah, like I mean like on one hand I'm like yeah I guess in a way like I took a hit for someone else but on the other hand there's a rapist out there. Yeah, that's what I got away with it Well, he found it. He was probably British and we found most of those the British youtubers. Good dammit So you reckon he had made the drink spike the drink. Yeah, I think that took it I said no the narrative is while I'll just give it to you. Yeah, the narrative is well No, I was probably wasn't like I'd gave me the drink I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay.

I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay.

I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay.

I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. I think that's okay. tragedy because it's like it happens to you at your first time here would have been awful and you weren't the first choice This this this places unlike anything else in the world I feel like Vidcon is worth explaining to people because you can walk like a mile either way of here and Talk about like no one knows the stars here There's like the biggest people here are people that bought in your old girls love but no one else knows There are so many 14 year old girls in your old girls love but no one else knows. There are so many 14 year old girls.

But there's just all these like, like just crazy young fans chasing after little boys everywhere. That's the funny and the lobby before. Is the Sam made this amazing point because there's a lot of like really cool like industry things going on. But there's like this whole other layer cool interesting good there's good people that are good at what they do around and then there's this other layer of like Sam pointed out he saw this like little girl she would have been like 10 she was walking around with her

Lanier and he realized it was a creator-langured. Yeah, we did a Facebook live just walking around the main convention center. The first thing we saw when we walked in is, it will never leave me for the rest of my life, right? We'll walk into the convention center and there's this stage and there's a little girl and two little boys, they've got microphones. They were singing, but I'm pretty sure they weren't, I'm pretty sure they weren't singing. I'm pretty sure they were miming over some pop song I've never heard.

There's like, you discovered musically, I see. Yeah, right. And there's like, yes, yeah, it was musically. Yeah, right. The hell is musically. I can't believe you were even able to figure that out from my description. Yeah, so there's a new generation of, I'd say like Talon, but I'm not even gonna do air quotes.

Yeah. But where the bar is getting lower and now the new thing is literally you can be famous just for lip syncing other people's songs. Right. So they're lip syncing and there's all these other little kids filming it. I didn't even know that it what that's what it was But the there was the little boys on stage were like getting hats Throwing him into the audience to girls these are like 14-year-old boys

And then when someone would catch it they'd wink and like shoot him a little and then go back to lip syncing And it was like this like sexy like rock show. I love that the world moves so fast that way the ones that were frowned upon five years ago, now frowning upon. Oh, absolutely. No, no, no, no. And I do have to keep myself in check,

but I do have to draw a fucking line at musically, because sure, there are some very creative kids on musically. There's a couple who do some really interesting things, like are they lip syncing a very interesting way? Mm-hmm, but by and large there's very little defending it like I like when vime came around my immediate knee-jerk reaction was Fuck these kids six seconds, but then like vine actually brought this fascinating revival of low Vi- low-budget sketch comedy, you know just basically shot reverse shot wig though wig Yeah by low budget sketch comedy, you know, just basically shot reverse shot wig, though wig. Yeah, yeah.

And that was wonderful and it really helped lower the bar for me. So I could spend less money producing sketches. But I just, I've tried, I've tried to see the good in it, and it's very, There's just, I have younger cousins and stuff, and you just, it's amazing how quickly you feel old like how quickly you just go really yeah like really you just you just feel like a cynical like part of me feels like a cynical old man walking in and

going this fucking stupid and maybe it's just because I'm not 15 and if I was 15 I'd love it yeah yeah I'm. The thing I go to every time is this Elp pregnant Elsa Spider-Man, you've got me with that. Unfortunately. Which I'm not, I don't even know. My understanding would bring it up. Let's bring it up.

Is this your channel? I didn't realize it was your channel. So what's happened, it feels, what it seems like the journey is, is Disney owns Spider-Man and Elsa. So you can't put them on YouTube, you can't put episode, you can't put Spider-Man Elsa on YouTube.

So what, two very clever people have done, is they dress up as Spider-Man and Elsa, and then put in their title, Spider-Man Elsa. 10 year olds, six year olds, seven year olds, get on YouTube, so Spider-Man or Elsa, comes up with them doing things and this channel is just. Hundreds and hundreds of millions of YouTube.

But the content is not okay. No, it's weird, it's really weird. Like Spider-Man, well, it's thing on Elsa. It's just from them, it's parody comedy. Like, you know, just putting on a Spider-Man outfit, you can't stop someone doing that. But what they are doing is genuinely profiteering off, off like, off Spider-Man outfit, you can't stop someone doing that, but what they are doing is genuinely profiteering off of Spider-Man Elsa. It's not even really watching it.

Tom, this is the worst shit you have ever made. Yeah, everything. But it's really strange. It's not really strange. Oh, right, I implore anyone who wants to know more, just Google Spider-iderman or Elsa on YouTube and see what comes up. What's the views on that video you just saw? Okay, so the video you just brought up is three days old. It's a nice old.

It's called Frozen Elsa sticky note car prank with Spider-Man pink spider girl. I don't know if there's an L, it's just spider-guy. So there's more title past. And it has 3.2 million views three days old and it only has 200 comments which means that the people watching this literally can't write I mean let's go to the comments and see what you've got let literally like gibberish. We've got hello. I like and comment We've got hello. I like and comment Uh A

I don't know what that is love you. I love you. Yeah, foot Fusser the comments are gibberish because they're being written by legitimate babies. Wow And then wow it's just noise and shapes, but yeah, I guess it's like you know like the teletubbies I guess is no the teletubbies is regulated by off-com who have standards. This shit is not. Like, it's someone somewhere. And I think Xavier Mika-Leadies was filling me in a comedian who's been on our podcast. But someone saw in one of their videos in the background, they had a gold YouTube plaque

which means that they had got a million views on another channel supposedly. This channel has six million views on another channel supposedly. This channel has six million subscribers. Yeah, right. Wow. Oh my god. It's in my day, in my day, we did fuck the shit and made little sketches.

In the home. We did fuck shit at the home. Yeah. And no one saw it. But then again, there is, there are a bunch of like out of work Like sketch comedy writers from traditional media that are like the going was good and then these YouTube cunts fucked it all Absolutely because we came along we kind of shook up the way sketch comedy works We killed the sketch comedy format on TV because like wasted through a 20 30 minute sketch show

When in half an hour after show airing the three funniest ones because realistically there's only really three good of course sketches and any sketch show episode will wind up on YouTube. Yeah, so we in a way lowered the bar which which which is why we are responsible. It's part of Man and Elsa. Yeah, we did this. But then you get shows that are a bit clever, like I started rewatching Key and Peel, which is one of the few amazing examples. Yeah, yeah, because. There was entirely online as well. Yes, but they only put about four sketches in every episode

because I was watching it from season one. I was like, I should watch it. And I was watching when I was like, I know that one. I know that one. I know they were all, they were all hits. And I was was like it's because there's so few sketches in the actual show Yeah, and you watch it and then there's so much filler in between the sketches. Yes, that's right. Yeah Yeah, it's it's it's genius that show All right, so we should do a sketch

Yeah, yeah, you've got an idea. I do. We have, so, um, well, how are we for time? Well, what we might do if it's all right, is it, but it's, look, it's up to you. Well, we're just gonna pretend that this is the end of an episode, we'll do a preamble, and then that next episode will just be you pitching, and it'll go as long as it does, and then we'll leave you alone.

The pitch will take me 30 seconds because I don't have a plan about that. You've never spoken to us in person, clearly. Nothing me 30 seconds because I don't have a plan about you've never spoken to us in person clearly. Yeah, nothing takes 30 seconds We're in a panel today that was supposed to go for 30 minutes and it took an hour. Yeah, right. Okay. This is this is we're gonna drag out your idea. Oh boy Well, let's workshop it. I'm good. Yeah, I'm good. Yeah I'm part of what I want to talk about Join us next week or whenever we put this up for the TomSka Anti-Donna workshop.

We're going to workshop a sketch together. And then we're probably going to shoot it later on in the year. That's going to be great. We'll see. All right. We'll be back. Thank you. Bye.
