That's what I'm still not learning. So Amanda, Amanda, look... Amanda always introduced the guest.

But I get it wrong every time. Like, I usually am saying, I'm Damien, then Amanda goes like, and then like... Yeah. But you're your own host. You're doing your own thing. And I kind of just say my name and then look over. But I'll do it. I got it. Ready? All right. Hi, welcome to Smoshmouth. I'm Shane. I'm Angela. And here with me is Damien Haas. Thanks for having me, Angela. What's up, guys? Can I be so real? I liked your original way better because it lets me say my name and not just be, like, what do I say after?

Yeah. This is Damien. I'm like, yep. That's true. Yeah. But how are you? What are you doing? How are you feeling?

I'm feeling great, thank you. I know y'all just filmed an episode before this, just a little behind the curtains. And I heard laughter the whole time. I want to get on your level. I'm ready to be a goofball and I'm still waking up. So this episode's a little impromptu. We were going to have a guest today, a guest we're very excited about. They weren't able to make it.

Rimes with Shali Narton Dolly Parton was supposed to be No, I'm kidding, I'm kidding Okay, sorry, go back No, no, no, we're going to keep that in Because that's good Angela, you get one take that out per episode Yeah, you get one take that out

And you used this, you fired it off So you don't get to take anything else out If we just said Nick Cage is going to be here You know what's crazy? I was also thinking the same joke I was just like, I almost was like Let's just say it was the 42nd President of the United States And I was like, wait, was Obama 42nd,

and then that's when you said the Dolly Parton I was like thank God you did it start over yeah no no this is good um so we decided last second to to do this because we're all here so we're like let's just do this try out to laugh episode this would be really fun yeah this is my favorite way to do at t-n-tel it's we have nothing we truly have nothing planned yeah what if I pulled out my phone and you realized I had this was my plan all along right you because I was going to be vague but I was like I'll just use all the jokes I I was planning for our guest on you. Oh, pretty good.

That's funny. Well, I decided something in the bathroom just now. Oh, okay. Do you want to, because the way obviously that we do TNTL is we kind of like announce when the game begins. Yes, yes. Do you want to save this or are you? No, I'm going to say this before. Oh, okay.

I know we're going to start. Right. Angela had a hard time in the bathroom wants to tell us about it. So I didn't say that. Fuck, I'm screwed. So I didn't say that. You two are trunk boys. Are what?

Trunk boys? Trunk boys. Oh, right. You said we're trunk boys. These are boys. It's going to be me in the back seat. Being like, please be quiet, guys. Mom's trying to drive and you guys are in the trunk.

She's taking those turns real hard. You guys are just going to laugh each other all day. What I'm going to do, in the bathroom I realized, see, this is it. They're going to go. I am going to completely win. I decided in the bathroom, I will win. And I think a winner, all the winner needs to do is decide, right? So I'm deciding that I will walk away from this episode without laughing.

And I truly... You think you can get through this without laughing once? Yes. Do you think you could do that? Yeah. I already know I can't. Like, I know we do hard mode, and I'm like, let's do hard. Like, I'm not going to laugh.

I feel like, and this is more for Shane, but I'm going to look at you while saying it. You know how, like, Goku takes off the training weights and you're like, now he's really serious? That's Piccolo. Yeah. Yeah, that's Rockley. So that's, say that's me. That's Rockley. So that's how I feel about the laughing thing.

Because I used to laugh so much in improv that it was a problem and I, like, couldn't progress that I had to train myself to not laugh. And I feel like it took away my ability to laugh authentically. Everything you see on Try Not to Laugh is just to make you feel better. Wow. Yeah. I'd argue, I think we all fall into that because as comedians, you want to support, so you laugh. But today, I'm playing full bumpers are down. I'm going

I once got a zero in fifth grade because of that and I like cried You just save that shit for later We're not even playing yet I know I'm prepped I'm just warming up, warming stuff isn't funny Bowling stuff isn't funny To the point where you're actually going to go

Oh no if we play TNTL hard mode next time It actually brings down the energy Because I will not be smiling I will not be enjoying anything we are about to do Okay good good I think this is good You're going to go, that was a damper episode because Angela didn't laugh. It's not going to be, it's not going to be that.

Okay. Because here's what's going to happen. Okay. I'm going to do my best. Yeah. I'm going to do my best to not laugh. And I know Damien can, because when we did the episode with you and Arasha, you guys both laughed like three times together, like.

Here's the twist, though. I'm throwing a wrench in the situation. Counter to what I just said, I do laugh a lot when I have either caffeine or sugar. Can't do caffeine. anymore but right before this I took a spoonful of honey I'm never beating the bumblebee allegations and I am feeling the sugar come up a little bit

and I'm feeling a little giggly so maybe this time maybe this time I will giggle okay you don't know though all right well because I was going to say this on top of this on top of this you say you're not gonna laugh once you're you might laugh a little bit I think I'll laugh like twice

okay only twice yeah I think a subgame because I'm gonna do my best but we could also keep tally of who's making me laugh the most. Just so you're also trying to, you've got to, you're not, you're trying not to laugh, but you're also trying to make me laugh. Oh, that feels, okay, that's going to bring out some shit. Okay, I might be sloppy, but here we go.

But ultimately, ultimately, ultimately, the real goal is not to laugh. Oh, yeah. And you're saying you're not going to laugh once. I believe from the beginning to the end, what, it's an hour, I won't laugh. Okay. I'm, I'm so curious. Yeah. How many times do you want to make a bad?

You're going to be like, oh, God, it was like, hosting with, like, a towel. Like, I'm not going to give you anything. Okay, but here's the thing. Here's the thing, Angela. Aside from the competition, you're not going to laugh once. How many times do you think you can make me laugh in the hour? I don't fucking know.

I think I'll be lucky if I get two. I think you'll get more than that. Okay. I will also say if either of us breaks really hard, that is also going to be a shame laugh. Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, once you, when, if you do laugh, I will laugh. because I know it's going to take all your strength

not to laugh. I'm seeing the gears turning right now and it looks like you're hurting. We haven't started and it looks like you're in pain. You know when you see like you're watching sports? Here I go. I'm talking about that. I'm talking about that before stream started.

I've been playing a sports game on my phone. Oh, good for you, bud. Yeah, umamu's really good. But you know when you see like the... I support you do. I'm going to be fine. I'm going to be fine. I'm literally going to be so easy.

I actually want to like put money down because I'll make money. How much? Let's put down $100. Whoa. That's a lot. That's a lot of money. I said that and I did not mean that.

Angela, are we putting down $100? No, we'll put down $10. $10? Can you break $100? It's all I've got. Holy shit. But I'm doing what the batter's doing before they go out and they're just like.

If you go, if you get through this entire episode with that, laughing, I will give you 20 bucks. Whoa. Yeah, I'll give you 20 bucks. Let's start. I mean, like, let's just stop pushing around. All right.

I need a good laugh, and I'm a little disappointed that I won't be able to this time, but, okay. I'll give 20 bucks to anyone who doesn't laugh this entire episode. So that's $40 I might be

lose in total. I'm not placing that bet on myself. Wouldn't it be so funny? I know myself well enough. Wouldn't it be so funny, Angela, if right now is like, what if it was just to the charity of our choice,

snowing full well that now you don't get $20 because you'd look really bad. Sure. Like it's actually going to be a problem for the tone. Yeah. It's not going to be a problem for the tone. People are going to be in. People are going to be locked in.

Let's go. Get the clock going. All right. So now here's a thing. This episode was brought to you by my stinky badge. Oh, we're starting there. So I actually do want to cut that. You can't.

I think we have to. All right. Can I use my cut to cut that? This episode was brought to you by... The Army. Can I interest anyone in some bravery? Army.gov. Go there.

This episode of Smoshmouth is brought to you by Small's cat food. Smalls cat food is protein packed, preservative-free cat food delivered right to your door. That's amazing. You know, my cats are extremely picky. So I need to get food that they're going to eat and like. Yeah. Yeah, it's amazing, Shane. 88% of all cat owners reported its health improvements for their cats.

That's amazing. Here's a review from a real Smalls customer. Elizabeth C said, my cat was always so-so with her usual food, but she's very enthusiastic about Smalls. Her breath is much better, and she poops much less frequently, and it does not smell disgusting like it used to. It's great stuff. My cats lose their minds over it.

I'm gonna struggle with this one. Thanks, man. Can I tell you, I wrote a joke down the other day. It's not gonna make you laugh. This is tight five on Harriet Tubman. You're gonna love this? Yeah, it's gonna be great. It's gonna be awesome.

No, this is not funny. This is not going to make, I promise, I promise. I dare you teach me something. I promise it's not gonna make you guys laugh. I just, I'm happy because like, it's been a while, I'm getting my creativity back. So it's like a genie pops out of a lamp. Like, you have awakened me.

I will grant you three wishes. I wish you'd have called me. Listened. It's complicated. See? Like, it's like a setup for like a thing. I like that. I like that.

I wish. They had a thing. I wish we went back to how it used to be. I wish we didn't have the kids. Yeah. And then the genie's like, oh. Yeah. That'd be really good.

And it sucks because like that wish didn't immediately happen. And it brings in some like questions of like, does the genie have other rules? Right, right. So that was a chuckle. So that was a little bit. That was a little bit. Okay. I'll take that.

I'll take that. You're going to smoke me. You're going to kill him. That's fine. Look, there's no money. There's no money on that. There's just for pride. What if I tickled you right now?

No. You want it soap. I, I'm already being too cringe and I have to stop. It's not cringe. It just feels cringe when we say things like that and no one can laugh because usually your friends are there with a little chuckle to be like, I hear you, that was fine.

There's nothing worse than saying like, can I tickle you? And then you're met with nothing. Oh, like you've never dated. Like you posed, you pose that question to the void and the void does not answer back. Yeah. It's a struggle. But sometimes it looks back and you're like, neat.

Yeah. And the little eyes. Yeah, a little messed up little eyes. Yeah, pretty good. Look, I think we're in a bit of a stand still here I think we can have a genuine, we're still allowed to have genuine Conversation, 100%. Yeah, I do feel as if I can't really speak.

Don't, don't, and I'm just going to relax. We're in a place where we're just trying to say jokes, we're trying not to laugh. Let's just get into just, what do we want to talk about? Like, what's going on right now? I've been watching Summer Games. Yeah. And it's, it's been really hard for me to watch myself because I am so ridiculously cringe

in like a way where it's just like I know I'm a normal amount of cringe on day to day like we all are but this is like it's so clear I didn't grow up with sports because there is something being unleashed that is so disgusting and so loud

and so hard like even my whole thing like a baby like what was I? I was about to be really supportive of you that one was tricky yeah no one went like yeah Spencer did hey like this isn't bad funny

This is not, this is bad. So here's the thing, Angela, from someone, because I used to do a lot of summer games back in the day, in different summers. And they, I also would have that like, amped up competitive vibe. Yeah. Because I'm like, oh, that's the game.

That's what we're supposed to do. And then I would watch it back and I like, hate it. I'd be like, oh, my God, that's so cringy. And, like, ah, people think I'm too competitive. And then I, like, let that all go away. And now I'm like, man, I miss, like, letting myself care a little bit. Like, you're not going to make everybody happy all the time. Oh, and I'm not trying to.

It's a tricky balance. It's a very tricky balance. Yeah, I was just watching it back and I was like, I can't even take this. Oh, I wouldn't. On me. And I think you can know, like, I think it's important to remember, like, what you did was fine, and no matter how cringe you think it was,

like, it does not compare to how cringe you probably actually were in high school. Yeah, did you, you did theater, right? Yeah, and let's talk about it. Yeah, let's wait for Godot. That was cool. It was cool. You know, with our kind of back and forth, it's a little Neil Lebutte vibes here.

Nealabute? Nealabute. Lebutte? Oh, like the Mesa? Hate to refute the blues. Oh, quit talking about the shape of things. Oh, fuck. Talk about set serves Spike.

You know what I mean? Spike Jones. Spike Jones. Oh, he's going to be dead. There's no way. No, don't worry about that. Yeah, don't worry about that. Focus on your, the bed is.

you're not going to laugh. Here's my thing is, I don't think either of you. And I threw an insult at you and you held your ground. Yeah, I don't think either of you can even do it. I think you're going to make each other laugh. That's the bet. I know, but that's what I'm saying is you're asking me to tally it up, how much I'm going to make you laugh.

I'm like, what's your tally? I'm telling, okay, I believe you. I think it's going to be better off for this episode if I'm handing you $20 at the end of this. I think people are going to want to see that happen because I don't think they believe it. It's an audio podcast. Are you crying on command right now? See, because I will say, like, are you able to, like, be here with us and also not laugh, or do you have to go away? No, I'm being really present.

No, you're being really present? I just think it's, like, hard to hang out with two people who have known each other for so long, and I'm just, like, trying to be a part of the conversation. Oh, me when I'm hanging out with you and chance. Oh, literally, go fuck yourself. You guys get to hang out? Can I, I feel like I don't get to hang out with you guys at all after the show. We got to hang. We do.

We've never done it. We have hung out? Never, once. you're trying to make me laugh I'm being so real with you right now I see the technique it's like don't go for the laugh go for like real genuine shit

I'm deeply sad and lonely all the time and I don't find any part of that funny because it's so relatable it's so damn relatable nice getting a little silly there it's a damn relatable that's a good see what's gonna be your Icarus trick

How silly can you get? Oh, yeah. Stitching therapy. So dumb. Lyrus trick. What do you mean? Well, like, you know, like gluing wings to your back and trying to get to the sun. Kiss.

Kiss already, kiss. We did before this. We're all right now. We did that a little bit. So. And then you land in there's a minute. We got into the trunk of a car and do it. Yeah.

Kiss. Big, big trunk, though. Lots of space. We choose to be close. It's got hydraulics on the back wheels. I deal. I'm actually trying to decide if I want, I'm going to get a new car. I don't know if I want.

if I want like a big car or small car. Well, how big a trunk you're looking for? Because we know exactly how big that could be. Pontiac Aztec. Very flat back. Subaru Outback. Subaru Atback. You would love a Subaru Atback.

I want you to give me a bunch of cars and one of them has to be fake and I'll figure out which one it is. Because I actually don't think I get, like, Subaru Outback sounds like a restaurant to me. Okay. Subaru Outback is fake? No. Because you said it, I believe it's true. But now I'm like, give me some fake ones. Okay.

A Subaru Outback, a Toyota Corolla. Pontiac GTO judge. A rabbit? yeah I know a rabbit isn't a car that is a car it is a car it's a Volkswagen Volkswagen GTI used to be known as the rabbit It's called the no

That's the nickname it's not called the rabbit It was called the rabbit Yeah don't you know James mom Get her on the phone Would she call it a rabbit or would she call it Get her on the phone let's see if James mom can make you laugh Yeah James mom literally she'll do a better job Than you two fucks

Whoa Okay mean not funny We two kisses that's it We're not being mean here That's funny No You can not laugh and also be kind. I think, yeah, it's hard, it's really hard to not laugh at all and try to make you laugh.

You know what's been helpful to me? I'm smiling. Like, I'm definitely not going to laugh, but I'm like looking at you with wide eyes and I'm smiling. For sure, get that. Yeah, I feel like a crazy person. Sorry, that was, that was just kind of a laugh. That was like, that was more like, that was me appreciating the moment. That was a Folgers moment.

Who, I, I'm, I'm proud of myself because I don't feel like I'm, I don't get many laughs on this podcast when we do TNT. I feel like I'm here to kind of like be a little bit of a ref almost You know? Oh, because you laugh so much or because oh yeah Yeah, no, truly. Yeah Like I got dude I got the mobile game for you oh yeah, umamusime it's great it's sports dude It's sports so what is the sport it's horse racing it's all horse racing and you're the horse racing No, you're the coach you're coaching and training you're coaching yeah you're basically training up these horses Like see biscuit they do look they are

anime women, but they are horses. Like, they're not people, they're horses. What? Yeah. Yeah. And that's the whole thing. Why are you all nodding? Like, you know what he's talking about? Because it's actually great. It's anime horses? I had a bunch of friends download it, and I was just like, oh, I get it. It's a meme. We're all doing it. And then I downloaded it. And I'm like, oh, this is genuinely so good. So what are you doing? How are you coaching? Are you going

faster, faster? Like, you choose, like, how they train each day, like, whether they're going to the track, whether they build up stamina, whether they're, like, you know, training their mentals and learning skills by, like, you know, practicing, writing and all that stuff. Okay. Like, they're functioning like people, but I can't emphasize this enough.

They're horses. A Toyota Prius, a Honda Accord, or Marisha Hargotei. You're gonna make yourself? I was at the gym, and I was at the gym in Law & Order. This is Ernest,

can I have a real story? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was on the treadmill, and Law & Order was playing on one of the TVs, and it was just going through the credits. Dead silent. Real quick, they have TVs in the gym.

Yeah. Fuck. Fuck, that's crazy. Okay. I'm sorry. Okay. I'm sorry. What I'm about to say.

is not going to matter now. I stole your, I sniped your joke. That was crazy. I'm so sorry. I almost was proud that you were going to do it. You know what I mean? That was, that was fucking funny. Okay, so tell us about your story. It doesn't really matter much now. I was on the treadmill and Law and Order, the credits were showing, and Marisha Hargatay came up and I just, I actually laughed out loud on the treadmill. I was just like, I forgot. I've seen that name my whole life, but I was just like, that's a funny-ass. Who is that? Marisha Hargatay. You said it differently than you said it before.

Which is it? Because it's different every time. Hop in my Marisha Hargette. Yeah, exactly. How's your day going? Ah, Marisha Hargette. Oh my God. Well, is she okay? No, she got Marisha Hargatade. Oh, my God. Well, God bless her keeper. Oh, who. Enjoy your Marisha Hargette. She's in Christ hands now. How do you like your macha? Bitter. Tastes like fish, kinda. Ew. Doesn't it?

Doesn't matcha have an exhale of fish to anybody else? It's a little bit like seafood. Never having it again, no. I do. I mean, matcha's good, but it just, I feel like it's an acquired taste, like, and I don't think, I don't know, wasn't it not meant to be? What's something that isn't an acquired taste? Everything's an acquired taste.

No, pizza. Pizza, chicken nuggets, hot dogs. Hot dogs. That was so, so. That was so trunk boys answered. Pizza, chicken nuggets, hot dogs. Pizza, chicken nuggets, hot dogs. Trunk boys?

We're going to make it... Dead. You know what? Any podcast where, like, we can't get any guess and it's just you and me, we're going to do the, like, two white dudes with a podcast vibe. We're going to be like, welcome back to trunk boys. You almost got me with that.

With the trunk, jumping up and down like that? Because that's exactly you guys. You like slapstick? Oh, fuck yourself. Sorry, I'm being mean again. That's adult slapstick right there. I don't need to be mean to be mean It's okay I said the gym thing

When I said the gym thing I was just trying to be like goofy And just be like Yeah It was the way you did it It ended up being It implied so much It didn't mean to

It didn't mean to It was so funny Okay okay okay okay okay okay Okay who'd win in a fight Tater or bug Oh dude Tater Or they would probably kiss

Wait I'm thinking of Mater Who's Tater? Tater and Bug They probably just moved to Portland Tater is my is my spread hood character Oh, the show we did Got it

Yeah And Bug is My character in Sword AF Yeah Another show we did Another show we did And so who would win in a fight I think

Tater would win What you guys think Go on I'm sorry I'm ruining the vibe And that's what I said I would do I want you to expound upon it Okay I think

Because I what is our opinion matter Yeah Okay that's true I think bug would choke on tater on a potato no I think he would just choke

I think he would be like oh my god that's tater from the sput hut the acclaimed series oh my god yeah and choke and choke or okay let's think all of the smotch characters on the table battle bracket all of them oh this is my favorite episode now

yeah who's who's taking it um okay besides the chosen the chosen you can't say that no chosen's losing I mean well I was gonna say chosen Oh, no. Because there's so many iterations. I don't think Sarah Christ is.

I don't think... I think Sarah Christ is a gun owner. I mean, Courtney Frickin Miller? That's possible. Yeah. Straight chance. Straight chance. Straight chance solos, for sure.

Yeah, I would say so. Once he's not distracted by gay, like he's so powerful. It's pretty wild to see. Okay. Was that almost a laugh, or did I say something bad? No, I think. she's offended oh oh oh yeah that's gonna really ruin the vibe did you not know a chance was i i think you keep going back and forth between wanting to ruin the vibe and i would never

want to ruin the vibe that was the okay i think what i think what's happening is is exactly what i thought would happen i'm trying so hard not to laugh that i i can't i'm that you can't participate yeah what What if you just broke the seal and laughed a little bit? Because I'm already at like one, two. I don't know. I have to start trying to make you guys laugh because I got one for you and did I get you? I don't know. I don't think we just laughed at the situation.

Well, look, we could just have a conversation and you can just hang out. Yeah, sure do that. I'm offering that if that makes you comfortable. Why would that ever make anyone comfortable? As someone that always ruins the vibe and is often the third part of a cool two duo, it's not comfortable what would you like it's your

fucking face when you do that when you're about to fucking look at him it's like crazy looks like a peep oh a peep the peeps dola peep

dole a peep look at his fucking face that's a peep that helps you deliver babies We brought it to Wendy Williams, and then you slam dunked it. Who? Give me a break.

I'm so bored. That's her doing your impression. I forgot she was embalmed. It's my impression of every woman you guys have ever kissed. Hey, I love mummies. I have to wash my mouth out. Oh, God. Look, my technique is putting sand in my mouth before a kiss.

Oh, God. It wasn't good. Oh, God. I can't believe I've kissed you. Uh-oh. Why is my lips hurting now? I'm gonna... I thought this was love.

It's working. I know I should have waited for marriage for kissing you. It can't... I can't lose to that. You're going to lose to some bullshit like that is what's going to happen. It's like this weird. I tried to lick your entire fist in my mouth. That's how we kiss where I'm from.

That's not going to get me because I'm a sophisticated woman. Would you like to go to midsummer with me? Have you seen the film? Just because your face is going like that. Angela, you've heard this before. You're on that dating up tea and biscuits or whatever it's called. What? Bagels and bagel and donut.

That was, that has to be. Bagel and hot dog. I'm not going to take it. I'm not going to take that. I don't think that's not good enough. That was like shock. That was like, what are you saying? What's the day gap?

Coffee and bagels. Coffee and bagel? What is it? Bagel and hot dog. It's not bagel and hot dog. I think it was coffee and bagel. Coffee meets bagel or something. Coffee meets bagel.

There you go. That's what people are saying on there. Your parents are my face in your face. I can't wait to introduce you to my parents. Oh, I love kissing you with my feast. Let's let my parents watch. It's not working at all. Well, you know that new sign?

been looking for? Yeah. Well, listen to that. And that's how they made stomping. Can I tell you when I, when I first, our music teacher in fifth grade showed us a stomp video and it like was, it was an existential experience for me. Because you'd never, you grew up white, so you never had rhythm before. No. And I was like, what's happening to me? Yeah. I got really scared and I pissed. You pissed. Peeed my pants a little bit. But there was a stutter to it and it made a rhythm. It was like, pst, tz, pst, pst, pst. And that's stomp. And that stomp, baby. And that's stop.

And that's three people sitting around on table talking about stomp. Oh, my God. Do you ever see the Blue Man Group? I did. I've never seen them in person. You have? I saw them live. You guys saw them live?

Yeah. Let's do a smosh. You guys have hung out. We hung out. We're there. Wait. Let's do a Smosh cast trip to see the Blue Man Group. I would love that.

I think they would love that, too. They would need people. I don't think so. I think they book pretty regularly. I think they travel and they book. They've only been selling out shows for like 30 some odd years. Cirque de Soleil, too. Do you guys like those shows?

I've been to one Cirque to Salé. Which one? I've been one to one, Pond de la Ripley. I've been to one, Pondelriple. Bound de Replay. Next up on the radio is Pounde Replay. By Rianian. By Gennan.

By Riana. By banana. Can't wait until this. It's in my grandmother. Sorry. You keep doing that. Let's just have a real. Let's, okay, let's bring it back down.

Yeah. Let's bring it back down. Let's bring it back down. What's something genuinely going on? right now that we want to talk about. I'm just thinking, you know, I've actually been good, genuine. I've been trying to stay off of Reddit and TikTok this week. Because I noticed I've been really bad about, I feel like you and I had this conversation

a couple weeks ago where it's like, I noticed where I'm like, oh, anytime I have a second of downtime, I pull up my phone and I'm just like scrolling through kind of stuff. And I'm like, oh, I'm not giving my brain a chance to think or be. I'm not having, and I'm struggling with my creativity. And it's because I'm not, I need to be bored. I need to be uncomfortable. I need to have those times where I'm like, I don't know what to do with myself.

And you need to kind of like break the rhythm a little bit. You need to like see things you don't see normally. You got to like, you just got to, but the internet is a way to, you know what I mean? Like I feel like when I was like, when I have writer's block, Amanda always told me she was just like, just go somewhere. Like go on the bus or do something because it's like, then you kind of like see people. But that's so easy to do on the internet. Like I genuinely pull so many characters off of watching people's TikTok lives.

Right. I think going to an app intentionally is different. Is what you're talking about. I'm talking about. Because it's different because like when I'm bored, I will open up my sports game. Is there an elderly person unwrapping a Wothers original for 10 minutes in the movie theater? Because that's what it sounds. I feel like we're all just sort of gently being kind of polite about it.

But like, God damn. Oh, I heard Jonathan. It's okay. I was like, no, you're gonna love this part, Iron Man's about to do something crazy. Hey, excuse me, I'm so sorry, could you, you can't cover your mouth. You gotta see you not laughing. We gotta see it! don't do that oh okay cross your eyes you have to look to i can see you yeah good don't fuck

with me on this all right don't play with me i live in your head i have a huge apartment in your head. I fuck bitches and get money in your head. I'm working out in your head and I'm reading novels. I'm hanging. I got a lazy boy chair and I live there and we're talking shit about you. We're all hanging out playing cards against humanity in your head because I live in there. You're so scared. You're so scared. Drunk boys. What is it all mean when it's over?

Unironically, you spat in my eye. Angela, if you have really messed up medical spit, you have to legally let me know. Yeah, you got to check out for a pink eye. So to Smoshmouth is brought to you by Zoc Doc. Angela, did you remember to schedule that doctor's appointment?

That's what I've used, and I've been finally remembering to schedule those doctor's appointments every year. In fact, I need to right now. But Shane, my socials are all telling me that maybe I could just get, like, this face mask instead of seeing a dermatologist, and that'll do the trick. Yeah, see, I think you should leave it to the professionals. And Zoc Doc will make that easy to scheduled appointment with a professional.

I probably should because I'm feeling very old. I found a cobweb in my eye yesterday. Yeah, I mean, look, I'm getting older, too. Like, things are happening. Yeah, yeah, look at me. No, but I'm probably going to use Zock to schedule an appointment here pretty soon. I need to get my annual checkup. Make sure what's wrong with this? Good on you.

Zock-Doc.com slash smosh-mouth. You went a little long there, but that's okay. I just wanted to take my moment. You're just feeling it.

You're just feeling it. That's great. felt weird. Yeah, back to the show. I'm tired. I want to go bed. That was good. We'll go bed. Oh, I'm going to bed. I'm going to be here. Oh, I almost had you. I almost had you. I'm trying to get Damien. It's really hard.

I think I've thrown out a couple chucks. You can't cover your mouth, though. I won't do that. I'm sorry about that. Hey, and that's on us. And I honestly, I wasn't covering it to hide. I was pushing it in. I was going, look. You know what I appreciate about you, Shane? What? You gotta be so well hydrated.

Because when you laugh that hard, you cry so strongly, and I'm like, damn. You see in that shit? Oh, I can't wait to have my coffee. Trump, boys! Sorry, I'm just gonna have a sip of my coffee. It's gonna have a little bit of my emergency. No, keep drinking. I'm thinking, Angela did vote for Jill Stein,

and she told us all that. You actually vote? This is getting fucking ridiculous. Okay, okay. This is becoming... We're gonna pull it back down. Nothing that we just said is true. Yeah. Okay?

Angela doesn't vote. First. And that's not coffee in there. It's vodka. Nice. I think we need to get back to a real conversation here. Yeah, I think so, too. Because I think we get to the zone

where we're to stand still. Yeah. My friend just came in last night. My friend, he runs, he's one half of a very gay paint on Instagram. Check them out. They're a fucking incredible. Well, I've heard about them. Yes.

They paint murals that are, like, stunning in, like, people's, and people's houses. And he's been getting into just doing some more, like, my friend, Jensen's been getting into some more solo stuff. So I was like, you can kind of just, like, have a field day on my wall if you want. Cool. And now it's like, this morning I woke up, and it's like, my living room is like, it looks, like, it, there's just. vines and weird snakes and flowers and stuff all over.

I love that. And yeah, sorry, sorry, I laughed a little bit because just for, I almost laughed. That's all. Because we were being too genuine. No, because I just... Because you're just thinking about how happy you are about the mural. Yeah. Yeah, you see a little snake and you giggle.

So, but we're asking, like, what's been going on with you? But now my apartment, now I almost think it's a little too artistic. I'm like, is this me? Like, do you ever get, like, some... Like, it doesn't represent you? Were you ever trying clothes that are, like, so cool that you're like, I'm not. I get that. Like I look artsy

There's a couple like shirts in my In my closet that I'm like I'll just never wear it but I have it But like that's Why don't you wear it because you think it's too cool? It's too cool for me like I can't pull it off Yet maybe one day Like it's kind of

It's like people are going to talk like assume More about me Exactly yeah I feel confident filling right now Like this apartment looks like I have really good taste in music Yeah And I know you don't Yeah

I am sort of in the same boat right now where my office, my streaming space, I'm like, it's a little too, like, cold and sterile other than, like, the green screen and the actual, like, streaming space. Oh, my God, you should get my friend in there to paint. That's a good idea. I think I might do that.

But what I was looking at beforehand was, like, carpets, like, area rugs, but they have, like, texture to them. One is, like, a lake, and it has, like, moss on the outside. And I'm like, that would feel so comfy on the bare feet. Like, it's just like a, and I'm like, but can I pull that out? Is it too much rug for my space? Like, is it too crazy?

Is it too cool? Yeah. Like, what if someone comes into my office and is just like, this can't be yours? Right. Yeah. I get that. I get that. It's like, it doesn't represent you.

You want to walk into your space and be like, this is me. No, but it does, though. You know what I mean? Like, I'm obsessed with it. It sparks joy. And you want, like, an inspiring space. Yeah. Like, people underestimate, because we've got into our millennial gray era for so long,

of like a space being, like, inspiring and being unique and being fun. I feel like when I, what is it with, colors for like certain generations when people are like millennial gray because I know there was like an emerald green sofa that I looked at or like an emerald green and everyone's like oh it's the millennial green I'm like god damn can you just what do I

what are we allowed to do yeah because there's psychology to colors and so it's probably what we're seeking and like green is like for focus and and and uh I just want my damn emeralds yeah give me the emeralds yeah what would you say cum's color is probably like an emerald

probably like an emerald that was so lame and so bad and so I'm going to give you 20 bucks anymore. No, but I'm earning it. I'm earning the 20 bucks. But just that part aside that made everyone upset.

Well, I just want the chaos emeralds. You mean the chaos emeralds? You mean the chaos emeralds? Causums. Sorry, we were having a bit of an inside joke. Yeah, no, for sure. And I just kind of... It's from a fan fiction forever ago

where Obama has the chaos emeralds. And Sonic needs them. So no one said, oh, we need you to elaborate. No one did that. We kind of were just like still here waiting for you guys to finish with his trunk a little so sonic is like this blue little runner guy and he's always running in video games is he a child no he's like an adult he's a fully grown man is he it he's like early 20s yeah is he what does he is he pack in um it depending on

which fanfic you're reading probably yeah probably like uncomfortably so mm-hmm like flopping while he runs like hurts his own bruises his own thighs when he runs what is his um I'm looking at him up there what is his uh he's right there species He's a hedgehog. A hedgehog. Sonic the hedgehog. It's in the name. Oh, but he's blue.

Yeah. Now you get the core concept of why he did so well in the 90s. Here's the thing. But I've heard chances mentioned you don't know animals. Yeah, no, don't know animals. Oh, dude, we got to go to the zoo.

No animals, but like if we get really in the weeds of it all, I'm like, a hedgehog isn't blue. I know that. What would it take for Smosh to bring us to the zoo? Because I want to see you experience the joy of like, if you don't know animals, I know you've never seen like a taper. And it's like, what?

the fuck does Angela think when looking at a taper. So you're fucking with me and you made up a tape. I'm not. That's the thing. That's a real animal. Say three things. Make one of them a fake animal. Say three animals. Okay. Okay. Okay. Let me let me cook here. Okay. Um, sunfish. Uh, let's see. We've got a howler monkey. And we've got a derungai. Sunfish Howler monkey Durungai Okay

Ernest goes to jail.

Ernest goes to jail? You guys just say references to each other and you change the words. Which animal is fake? Tell me which one of these is... Oh! That doesn't count! That doesn't count!

Oh, new shit has entered the villa. Oh. And I stepped on it. Did you just fart? No. Did you hear that? I was just going to set my cheeks up on the table. I think he gambled lost.

My brother once, I will never forget this. Did he gamble a moose? My, we were, after school, we were hanging out with our nanny, and she was so cool. And because my parents were always out of town. And she and my brother and my best friend, we were all doing our homework at the table. And she was like, there's no more farting. Because he kept farting, right? You're inviting farting with that.

That's how you get, yeah. My brother runs up to my friend. He gets a running start. Jumps. His, his ass in her face, farts, lands. Your brother is the Banksy of flatulets. Because that's incredible. I have to tell him that.

That's the funniest thing. That's so cool. Because I've told you this story, I don't think I've told other places, but I don't know if I've told you this story. No. This story about my brother. My brother got kicked out of the, he had to walk him. Go on you?

You's preventing yourself of laughing is so funny, dude. This is a beautiful face on me. My brother, this one time. One time we were driving home and we were really close to the house, but we were like a street down. And my dad was so annoyed with my brother continuing to fart. I think I told you this somewhere live. It was in front of an audience, I remember.

And my dad kicked my brother out of the car and he had to walk home because he farted. He let your brother cropped us the entire. neighborhood. He pulled over and he literally was like, get out of the damn car. And he was so mad. And then I remember looking through the

rear view mirror and seeing my brother walking. And you saw him, you saw him walking and you saw him going, like, fucking fart. One time on the way to an audition when I was like 12, I was so nervous. And like, truly

not trying to be funny. I was trying to hold it in, but I was like, my body was like shutting down because I was so nervous and I farted. And my mom, my mom was like, oh my God! She's like, roll down the windows, what the hell? She's like, can we go to this audition? Are you sick? And I was like, not laughing. I was like sad and scared.

It was not funny to me. You know what it takes for a 12-year-old to not find a fart funny? I was like, fuck, and I booked it. I booked that audition. Oh, my God. There are levels to it where, like, there's embarrassment if you make a loud noise. There's an embarrassment if it's stinky, but there are certain levels where people are like, it's like, are you dying?

Like, are you okay? You are you okay? You need to go to the hospital. No, it's when it's followed up by, like, because a fart is funny if it doesn't smell bad. No, what makes me, fart so makes me laugh. But your brothers were gnarly. But when someone goes, are you sick? My mom was yelling.

She was yelling. Oh! Oh my God! It's like hereditary. I want to die! God. It takes a lot to fart once and upset your parents so much. Yeah.

You gotta, you gotta let that out. It comes out somehow. Oh, whoa, guys. Might as well choose the book. I'm shocked at how well you're doing for me. Like, I, I really thought I had this in the back. And I've kind of, like, I've kind of broke it, like, twice. Yeah, and I...

But I wouldn't say I've laughed. Okay, well, I was about to, you know, be polite. No, Angela, you've full on left, like, a few times. Yeah, what did you say that? It's just like, you were like, pick me out. Like, what you want you to do not to fish? I was like... We, like, we moved on to something.

Nice, that's so awesome That's like Avatar So you like You know elephants, right That was good And that was good too And I do know elephants You're going to love tapers.

Can we please go to the zoo? Can we please go to the zoo? Tapers are crazy. They are. What are tapers? Can't wait for you to see them. I know, but can you explain? They're mammals that are like yay big and they look like...

Yeah, we've got a lot of tapers in the comments are going to go nuts. Yeah, we got a lot of tapers in the audience. If piggies were crossed with bears but also had like a weird little like elephant nose, not fully elephant nose, but like enough that you're like, that's a little elephant nose. You look at it and you know God doesn't exist. Yeah, not because all the suffering. What's an animal and you go, God didn't design that? Um, scorpions? Ditto, because it's, it's, it's, they try to generate, they tried to make mew and they made me too, but their failed experiments were ditto.

I see Sonic and I go, God didn't design it. Platypus? Nobody has explained a platypus to me well enough. And Echidna has four penises. What do you want, explained? A platypus, just like, what's up? It's like a fucked up duck. It's a monotreem.

It's a mammal that lays eggs. There's only a few. Lidipus echidna, and that's it. What? Yeah. You guys are, like, making shit up. I bring up monotremes on almost every video, Angela. You're the one who said wrong sofa a second ago.

Yeah, and you guys thought it was a play. I said it was not. And then you said, fuck you. And then I was like, let's, I guess, continue on. I love you guys. I love you, too. We should hang out at least even once. I feel like I've been here for seven hours.

This has been crazy. Let's cool the breaks. Okay. We don't have to, like, you're doing great. You're doing great. I mean, you guys are killing it. Oh, man. I mean, geez.

Okay, we want to pump the, did you say, did you just want to pump the brakes? Just like, you know, get back to like earnest conversation. Yeah, oh, yeah. I think why I don't know animals is because I, like, did you have, like, in what grade do they, like, go through all the animals? Well, no, it wasn't, okay, it wasn't school. I was obsessed with Animal Planet. Oh, okay. Maybe that was.

I was obsessed with animals, so it was very much, it was definitely like, um. Yeah, well, there's animals. It's definitely extracurricular for me. Yeah. I think it was like, you know, the dinosaur books, you know, that maybe were in your elementary school classroom if you were lucky or I know I had a few at home. I was a real, like, rocks and minerals kid. And now I can't be that because everyone thinks like, oh, yeah, citrine,

that'll make your ass not fall clean off. And I'm like, yeah, no, I think just I like the shiny rocks. I think I had like a jewel or rocks. Did you have a rock? Rock collections were big for a minute. I wonder if kids still do that. Now adults are in crystals. That's what I'm saying.

Maybe it was just a carryover. Yeah, maybe that's just a millennial thing. I think people need like an excuse to have things. Like they're like, oh, we have crystals. We have crystals because they heal you. And I'm like, I don't believe that. But I'm like, you're allowed to have crystals because they're awesome. No, I think attaching meaning to something is is more fun than just wanting a rock.

I disagree. Next topic. See, I think the meaning is in the rock. I know. But what I think is cool is like a rose quartz is so pretty and then I get told, Oh, if I hold it more, it's going to help me have more better self-love. And then I think I'm reminded

of self-well when I look at it. It just feels like a bummer where it's like, you don't love yourself, hold this rock. And it's like, oh, buddy. Not quite funny enough. See, I think it's like a, it could be a placebo effect. Yeah.

And just truly like a reminder. It's like, it becomes a reminder of memento. That's cool. I just, my argument is, I don't, it doesn't, I don't need that aspect to be real in order for me to want to just have, like, quartz. I think courts is, like, incredible, you know? All taste the same going down.

Yeah. I mean, yeah, you put it all at the, it's all the same. It's all protein. Yeah. Tastes a lot like blood. I should have had you talk about true crime because whenever you talk about true crime, you laugh. No, not more of that.

Yeah. That's every podcast I'm on. What are you up to, Amanda? Oh, true crime. I know. Another reason. Every podcast you're on, they're talking to Amanda. Yeah.

Are you still up to date? Are you, like, locked in on true crime right now? Have you seen the new crime? Yeah, I actually, I have been, I did take a little bit of a breather. Did it, like, was it getting to you? I don't know how you and Amanda, like, and so many people, like, keep up with true crime. I'm like, I would be terrified or, like, just feeling miserable all this time. I've toned it down a little bit because it's just sometimes it's like, if I'm watching TV to go to sleep is what I realized.

Like I did put on the 30 for the The the OJ Simpson 30 for 30 To go to sleep the other night And I I can't believe I do that But I put those things on because I like document it People talking just about something But it's interesting to me

And then I start to fall asleep And then the sound But I woke up really anxious And I was like oh I wonder fucking why Sure I have this like court case like plastic See that OJ made the Mertie under 30 For those audience at home, Shane almost giggled.

That was really a good one. Thank you. He's older than that when he died. It's, you know, I watched that 30 for 30, and I'm just, I'm blown away how someone can run that many yards every game for a whole season. I mean, Heisman. Okay, I was going to say this earlier. Yeah. It's actually hilarious that you are not into sports at all, but you watch that 30 for 30 with O.J. Simpson, like, over and over again.

And the first few episodes are only about the sports. Yeah, and I like that. That's what's crazy about this documentary. Is the show like, hear me out? Because it's just like, hold on. Like, he might, he might have done. But check this out real quick. He's like, is like, is the show like hear me out is so funny.

Is the show like hear me out? Watch him run? I think it's amazing in culture to see somebody be so godlike and do that on their own and then go wait down. We have not seen something of that caliber because we grew up just like

already knowing the whole thing but you watch that and then you also watch hard knocks yeah and I just started it's the bills isn't it's the bills which is a great team like love them so much I need to watch it but like you watch so much football content But I don't watch football. Because I love the stories and I love the wives.

I love seeing them like, my favorite on Hard Knocks is the Christmas episode when they all buy each other gifts. Yeah. And like the top running back will give everybody like electric scooters and they're all in like a big,

like, you know, it's like, or like I... That's awesome. Yeah, Dan Marino got all of the Dolphins QB department. Sorry, this has no true crime aspect to it. It's just a sport show. No, we moved back to just... They merge someone every year.

Yeah, they... Like, well, you've been... But literally. At the end of the season, Josh Allen has to decide who lives and who dies. Who do you guys think is going to play the halftime show? Ooh, okay. Okay, I'm actually down for this. I'm so down for this.

I meant to do this. There's a lot of rumors, Sabrina and Miley. But why? I just keep hearing that. And I'm like, why not just one each? Why do we have to put both of these incredible women and do them together? Why can't we just have one? Why can't we have them, like, you know, fight each other for supremacy?

Yeah. Yeah. Put them against each other. Miley would be an interesting choice. I actually think she would be great. I think she'd rock because she's got that rock vibe, which they love. And she has a huge songbook. I would see Sabrina Carpenter over Miley right now.

Sabrina Carpenter's too new. They never go with someone who's in their first 10 years. But Sabrina isn't that new. She's been making music for ever. I know, but like, but I mean even like within the first 10 years, like Taylor Swift, I think is just now in the era where I'm like they, because you need to appeal to multiple generations right yeah um and so you need gen x that's why i think myly comes out she brings out dolly she brings up like it's just myly is like so dolly parton would be can i bring up a dark horse yeah nora jones that'd be so fucking sick dude that would actually be so down that would be so

fucking six. I think Nora Jones. That would be so fucking funny, dude. And then Blue Man Group. Blue Man Group. That'd be fun. And then Smoshby's Reddit stories. A thousand miles. What is that? Vanessa Carlton just comes out. But the piano becomes like blazing through like from behind. Like the team is like standing there listening. It's like, oh, oh, you see the

piano like if I just, that's really good. And it just like misses one and she turns around. That's good. Honestly, Billy Joel. Well, Billy Joel is, yeah. I know, but he has, like, a new album. Oh, really? Yeah, oh, you have to watch his doc. The documentary is really amazing. See, I think, like, they never can go wrong with those, like, old school people.

That's always kind of the best shows, and it's someone that gets everybody hyped. He's the guy that's still performing when he's, like, 97, he's like, every one of them. Oh, oh, um, Frankie. Balance, Frankie, Frankie, Valance. Frankie Valley? Frankie Valley. I think Frankie Valley could take it. I would actually be so down.

He's just, they're like. They go, this year, Super Bowl Hot-10 performers are Frankie Valley featuring Sabrina Carlin. I would watch me. I forgot we were playing. It's okay. I honestly, I've seen you come alive in these past few minutes. I think I'm, I am going to admit defeat. I half laughed. I think four times. I still think you're winning. Like I still think I've laughed more than you. Yeah. But I didn't make, I don't know, you definitely took the cake for Shane. You made him laugh so much. Well, he was, you were folk. That wasn't your primary goal. But I'd say good game, guys. Great game. All right. So the numbers, obviously. It's very much, it's tough to gauge. Yeah. We're playing just off of vibes. I hope it's you. I hope you win.

Damian, you laughed twice. Okay, okay. And Angela, it's kind of iffy on two or three. Yeah, I'd say there was like three halves. And you had that big one. You did have the big one. At the gym. I would say, it's fair to say you did not burst out and laugh at it.

Yeah. You were able to, like, contain it every time. I got, like, I was really, I do admit defeat. But I feel like I had a lot of like half laughs in there, too. So if you wanted to, like, share the crown. Okay. 10, 10. Yeah.

I laughed 27 times. Angela, you made me laugh six times. Damien, you made me laugh 10 times, but here's the kicker. Oh, my God. I made myself laugh 11 times. And that's a trunk boy. And that's a trunk boy right there. Nice.

Way to go. Truly, this was so fun. Thanks for being here. This is a lot of fun. Yeah, hey, Angela, where can people find you? This has been so much fun. and Angela, you're kicking ass as a co-host, and Jamie, I'm so excited
