Hi, welcome to Smoshmouth. I'm Shane. And I'm Amanda. And we have a very wonderful special guest with us today. Salina. Hi. Selina, our producer and director. Oh, God. For, what, how long now? Over a year. Like, over a year.

Two years? Like, I think it's two years. I think I joined you guys in 2023. Like, when did we start the pod? 2023. Like, very shortly after you guys started. Yeah. I was, like, sitting in and. Where is time going? I swear to God.

Yeah, two years now. Dude. That's crazy. Oh my gosh. Do you like us? Oh. Yeah, so how do you feel about us? Yeah, how do you feel?

Actually, I hate everything. No, I'm just kidding. No, I love you guys. You guys are so funny. Thank you, Selena. This is like the coolest, easiest thing I could possibly be doing. Wow. Yeah.

I always wonder that like when we're performing so much and like production is watching us, I'm like, do they still think we're funny? Really? Yeah, because they've heard our same jokes over, and over again. Over and over. We were doing Challenge Pit yesterday and I was like, I, you know, they must be so frustrated.

Listen, they must hate this. They love you guys. And Selena, we've worked with you for many years before Smoshmouth. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, like, this is such a cool, like, I mean, it's not new anymore, but, but, like, it's been a cool, like, journey. New journey that we've all done together. It's trippy to have you here. I know, You've been on this, you know, desk before, but you're here for every episode.

Yeah, every single one. Almost every single one, there were a couple times when I've been away, but those were the worst times. Oh, thank you. Those were the dark times. Those were very dark. Look, we've all been away at some point from this show. Yeah. Not me?

Yeah. Just away for like four months. I'm here. I'm always here. I'm here. No, we can get into that because, like, I was thinking about it this morning. And it's kind of crazy how, and this is like how Olive's Mosh works, right? Like a peek behind the curtain.

We're constantly in pre-production, production, and post-production. Yeah. So like literally, so filming an episode production, that's like happening right now. But after this episode, after we wrap, I will be getting V1 of the episode airing on Monday. Yeah. Yep. Giving notes, placing ads, all that stuff. It's being edited.

post-production. And also, the production team is asking me to submit pre-prodocs for episodes we're doing in January. It's, it's so funny how, obviously, once we start rolling, we can talk about whatever we want, right? It's very chill. Yeah. But we do semi-plan out our episodes months in advance. Yeah. Because production's like, hey, we need to know if, like, you're going to be doing anything in this episode that you're filming in March. Yeah. And so we're like, what do we want to talk about in March. Yeah. So we have a lot of those planned out.

Now we often change them. Yeah. But yeah, you're the one keeping tabs on all of it from start to finish. I make sure that you guys are happy, that production is happy, that the editors are happy. Like, just making sure that everything is running as smooth as possible. Yeah, you also are like on it with edits too. You're like, okay, we need to cut that. We need to cut that out.

And then also, you're like figuring out shorts as well. Yeah. Because early on, Shane and I used to watch and pick the shorts, but we just don't have time anymore. And you pick the shorts, and honestly, the shorts are my favorite parts. You've been killing it. It's kind of a funny thing at the end of like every month or so, we kind of like gathered together here at Smosh and go through like, oh, here's how the channels are doing. And it's like, oh, he's like, oh, all the channels are doing amazing. But there's a part of me that when I look at like Smosh mouth, I'm like, yeah, our shorts views were pretty good this month.

Other channels keep up. We're doing pretty solid over here. No, we're killing it, you guys. Yeah. We're killing it. And, you know, I came back. Episodes are doing well. Yeah.

Yeah, dude. I'm just very happy about that. You know, you always had that, like, slight little fear that people would be like, oh, she's back. Oh, and we're done. We're done. We're going to leave now.

She's not relevant anymore. Or maybe that's just like a motherhood thing where you're just like, oh, my God, she's not relevant, she's not funny or whatever. Well, also because you haven't flexed this muscle. in four months. No. And Shane reminded me that when I came back, everything I've been filming is not coming out for months. Yeah. So, I mean, I think everybody's clocked it, Amanda included, that since Amanda came back, you have kind of lost your mind. Oh, yeah.

And I'm talking comedically on camera, you've entered a new era, I would say, as far as, It's almost like you've gone super-sayan. I don't know if you know what that means. Why? Why are you throwing out words with me that I have to ask you? I don't know what that means. It's a compliment. It's a compliment.

Several people in this room can acknowledge it's a compliment. Super-Sayan? You've gone super-sayan with your comedy. What? Does that mean? Guess. Guess. What do you think super-sayan means?

Is it mean like I'm, like, charging up with power and I'm like, yeah! That's actually 100% percent. nailed it. That's crazy. 100% nailed it. That's awesome. You got it. Well, what is it?

Okay, in... Oh. It's like... You want me to give you the actual definition? Yes. Okay, so in the show Dragon Ball Z, Oh. Goku is a sayan.

He's from a different planet. And so he can charge up and like reach another level. His hair like turns blonde and crazy and spiky and he becomes like a more powerful version. And he's like, da! Yeah. And then there's like... reaching new levels of being a super sale. So I'm going to reach more levels.

So I'm going to come in. I don't think you're done. I think you could get more insane. Oh, this is. This is only 20% of sleep. So you could imagine when I actually get full sleep. So people have not seen the stuff that you've filmed yet. Because I think a lot of the stuff that you filmed for Pitt and the Smosh channel and games channel, it probably has not aired.

The jokes that you're saying, the things that you're saying, what's going to make the cut? Yeah. It's just some of the most insane humor I've ever seen from you. And it is amazing to see. I'm super excited. I'm glad you feel it's amazing. You're unfiltered. And people have already seen here, you describing what birth is like was a little bit of an example.

There's no filter anymore. And that's the G-rated version. Oh, yeah. I left out so much. Oh, yeah. We probably had to cut some of it. I left out so much. Yeah.

Well, I feel honored because, you know, when I come here, especially my first day back I feel like I have so much energy that's like that's literally that's why I explained it that way because it's literally like inside me it's like and it wants to just come out and I actually I'm just a vessel you know I'm just a vessel for this energy and I cannot be responsible for what occurs when I start speaking and that's okay That's kind of how I feel. I'm not responsible for what I say. I'm not responsible for the crazy shit that I say.

Well, you've also had four months off and four months to kind of like not recuperate because you were doing stuff. No. But like to be away from this while everyone has been constantly doing it. Yes. So to come in with that energy is also like different. Yes. Because you're no doubt exhausted from the past few months. But I'm not really like exhausted like.

But you have. have like a, you're coming here with a different perspective. Yeah. Like, right? Like, you get to kind of experience something. And anything you experience in life is you can use creatively and comedically. Yeah. And I feel like we're seeing that from you.

And it's very, it's very fun to watch. I'm really glad because I do feel like before I get here, I've already worked a full day. Yeah. Before I get here, I'm up at 4 in the morning pumping. And I've already, I've already changed like two massive shit diapers. that are just like up the back, touching the head. And that's just 10 minutes of the morning. That's just 10 minutes.

Yeah. The rest, like, and then I get to work, and I'm like, oh, I've already worked. Right. And then I go home and then I have my full shift. Right. Right? You clock in. I clock in, and then the baby's down.

And then it's like, oh, do you want to watch something? It's like, nope. I want to go to bed. So it's just like, you're on, I've just leveled up on another. level. Is there an aspect where coming here and getting to like do this type of comedy, is it in almost a way a break

for you? Yes. Yeah. It's almost like I can't talk. I can't even say my son's name. I can't because I think it was my first week here. Someone asked me how is he doing and I just tears. So I just like it's just more just like I miss him but like when I'm here

I that mom Amanda is it's there but it's not really there. Like, I have to kind of compartmentalize. Yeah. Otherwise, like, I can't. Like, focus.

I can't focus exactly. Because if you, because now that I'm talking about, I'm thinking about him. I'm thinking about vaccinations. I'm thinking about all these things that are happening. And I'm just like, no, like just. But I remember my first day back, I truly felt unhinged. Like, it feels like you're just like going up, up, up on a roller coaster. And you know, when you get to the top, there's like a little side place where people,

people can stand or like people like workers can stand and like fix it you want to jump off on that side and like climb down and be like I'm done but you can't oh we're at 10 minutes yeah wow so this is a fun little peek behind the the curtain uh so for those listening uh Selena just held up the slate and it says 10 on it Selena gives us the time as we're recording so that we know just like how much time we have left yeah where we're at we're like roller coaster analogy move it quicker. Selena held up a sign said stop talking about motherhood.

Talking about motherhood. And you know what? I never will stop because it is my identity. But I will say that my first day literally I was like going down a roller coaster without wanting it. I couldn't stop it. And Mike

at Smoshalike was just like, hey Mike, how did that go? And he was like, yeah great. I mean, we're going to have to cut like half what you said just just because we have to but no it was good it was good and I asked Tommy and Arasha and they're like no

is it oh it's hilarious yeah there's just some things that YouTube is going to be like we can't put this on the algebra this morning he's like I love you Amanda and also you're crazy is that light me

do you guys don't see that light that keeps occurring Is it me? What light? No, I just see it in the corner of my eye, is it? Is it this? I'm surprised you guys haven't seen it. Okay, now it's not happening while you guys are looking,

so it makes me look action. Well, nobody look. Whoa, did you just see that? Where is it? Where is it? Whoa, whoa, whoa, Amanda. It could be catching something. And really why we're here is because we're looking back.

Yeah. At 2025, and I'm glad we're talking about how nuts I am, Because I, like, forget 2025. Oh, this year. You see the light, huh? I think this is finally, I feel like every year for the past 10 years, it ends and people are like, oh, what a year, right? Can't wait for the next one.

I think this year was, for a lot of people, they were like, yeah, let's really move on. Yeah, yeah. Let's, please, we must move on. It was just such an intense, emotionally filled year. Yeah. I would say, yeah, for me, and I think for a lot of. lot of people here at Smosh, I wouldn't say it was a,

it was definitely not a bad year. It was like a very successful, fun, big year, but it was intense. It was probably the most intense year, uh, working, one of the most intense years working at Smosh.

That's crazy to say, given that we've experienced a shut down a pandemic and all sorts of stuff. But at Smosh, Smosh like kind of reached a new level this year that we've not experienced since I, since I joined. And so it was just kind of trippy. like it's weird like it's hard to describe that

I mean we brought back summer games which was a huge undertaking in itself so it's the summer games it's like a lot of bigger projects it's the 20th anniversary like it was a lot oh it was a lot yeah no it's it's a crazy year

and it's weird to go to events because you know for 10 years working here we'll be at events and other YouTubers or or people in the space will ask, like, oh, where do you work? And it's like, oh, I work at Smosh. And they'll be like, oh, okay, cool. They'll be like, oh, like, frankly, some years, like, many years ago,

people would be like, oh, like, they're still around. Like, whoa, that's cool. Like, you kind of felt like, do I, do we belong here? And then this year, suddenly, like, you're in places and people are like, whoa. They're like, I know where you work. Like, whoa, that place is a big deal. Yeah. And it's, and we all feel it here.

But it's a, it's an intense feeling. We do feel it. It's like, it's more pressure. It's more, it's, it's, things are just moving so fast. Like we are, we're filming so much, we're doing so much. We're like, not only, it's, it's not just every day you're coming and filming. It is development. It's pitching.

It's live shows. It's merch. It's, it's so much other. We're like a whole world. Yeah. Yeah. And like, we, we have a big, bigger team, but like, it still operates a little bit like a small business in my opinion kind of we have under a hundred people yeah well certainly uh I feel like this show in

particular kind of does right because um I mean I think soon but uh until now like all of us do so much else here at smosh so smosh mouth is kind of like a side project yeah that we've yeah it is while you are running so many operations here at smosh so my official title is operations manager and then in parentheses I put also director and producer of Yeah, like that's my, that's my email signature. Yeah. It's funny. But, again, might cut this, but also I will say it.

And then if it's fine, we'll leave it in. We're also preparing for a big move. We're moving to a bigger space. And you can say it. Yeah, the amount of meetings and, like, stuff that we've needed to prepare for that has also skyrocketed this year. So talk about, like, a lot of stuff happening. That also happened this year. Or is happening this year.

I mean, we're doubling our space. Yeah. Yeah, which is, which just shows that that's how much we're expanding. Like, we don't have any more room even in our own building to do what we're doing. And it is, I feel so incredibly lucky to be a part of it because the industry, as we know it, is just in a crazy place. I mean, the whole Netflix, WB, Paramount, like, bid war over each other. I don't know if you guys know about that. But it's just like, everybody is feeling this, like, squeeze of just like, what is our industry?

I mean, everybody's feeling it now. Hey, everybody's feeling the squeeze and it's like, I feel so incredibly grateful to be in a job that I get to come in and we get to create every day. That is rare now. Yeah. Now that is rare.

True. Very true. No, it's a one-of-a-kind place. It's really, really cool. But yeah, it's been quite the year. So what are your guys' favorite moments? Even if it's not on the pod, just like in general that has happened um you know the birth of my son was good um i'll keep at work anyways i'll keep it lame i'll keep it work well you know i will say when i i had a very

i will say this year is a very humbling year for me okay it's a lot of me being like like the cool amanda's in there that's like i got this and then i present it and it's like oh my god amanda what are you doing it's a lot of questions like what are you doing girl and it's when selina was like oh man did you want to go and search reddit and like go on reddit and like do your own presentation of reddit and i was like hell yeah i got this honey like i'll do reddit and it was Shane and chance and i presented reddit and chance just was ripping me apart he was just like what is this shit what are you doing It's to be expected. Millennial vibes.

Hey. Which is okay. No. Yeah. Hey. Hey, it's great. Yeah. It's great.

And now you're the first person to say six, seven. Right. On Smosh. Congrats. You did it. I did it. I wasn't going to say it. I have a really funny story to say.

And I saved it for the pod because I almost said it to you earlier. Yeah, yeah. Courtney and I recently went to Japan. And we were there for like a week. And one of the days we're in a train station. And we're going up an escalator, and on the escalator going down across the, like, station are a bunch of, like, middle school or high school boys, right? And they kind of glance over at us, and we look back at them, and Courtney decides to make the six-seven gesture at them. Oh, my God.

And all of these Japanese high schoolers look back at us, and they go, and they start doing it back. And I was like, this is a worldwide phenomenon. This is ridiculous. It is. I was like, no way. It is. Oh my God. I was like, what did I expect?

Of course. But I also was like, no, there's no way. Did they know who you were? I don't think they knew who we were. I just think they knew the gesture. Yeah. Hey, we as a world just got to find what makes us laugh, you know? And if it's numbers, that's great.

Yeah. If it's a combination of two. two numbers. How long will this last? I'm, so I'm warning everyone listening and watching that this week, it's you know, it's only

we're filmed very far ahead but it's December obviously. Spencer and others have been making six, seven jokes in videos. Not much, but of course it slips out because we're saying it ironically. But that stuff's not going to air till like

March. So I'm sorry, I'm sorry ahead of time. Oh, people are going to leave the channel. They're going to be so mad. They're going to hate us. I think it was already over when you said it the first time. Oh, it's... No.

Hey, Selena, no. It was right there. It was super sexy and hot. And it was topical. Selena. No, it was hot. No, my niece and nephew visited me and then said it, and I didn't know what it was. And I literally walked in and I was like, oh, my niece and nephew were here.

And Shane was like, did they keep saying it? And I was like, and then I just started saying it all the time. No, no, kids are going to be fully over it and saying a new thing by the time this episode airs. God forbid the games and pit videos that we've filmed. Yeah. Real bad. I will say it's not a ton. I'm saying like a couple times, but it's just going to, it's going to read real bad.

It's not going to be good. Can we go back? I wanted to talk about this at the top, but the holiday party. Oh, yes. So we are filming, this is happening right after the holiday party. I'm still recovering. I've lost my voice and then some. We had another event the same week.

We went to Spotify. Yep. So it was just a lot. What were your guys' experiences at the party? We're celebrities. Just heads up. You were like doing whatever you do in Japan. Sure, man.

Have a good time. I was telling Selena that I felt like the holiday party, I felt like we were all rock stars. And because it felt like there was like lights and like there was just like all these things happening and everyone was just like, and there was like speeches and like hors d'oeuvres being passed around. Land chops as hors d'oeuvres. Oh, I didn't get any of the food.

I didn't, I didn't. Even the hors d'oeuvres? I didn't. Shane and I were in a sea of people. And here's the thing. I loved it. I like thrive when I'm like kind of talking to everyone and seeing everyone. And we invited a lot of the guests of the show.

and that was really, really fun for me because I had just gotten back. But there was one point where I saw Shane in the sea of people, and I really wanted to get to him to catch up with him. And I, it's like he was right there, and I just couldn't.

But every time she was running, and I was just... He was going... Drifting farther farther back. Because truly, I barely saw you guys all night, too. I saw you like once. I saw you once.

There were so many people there. I did not get any of the buffet food. Same. I felt like it was, like a speed dating event, like talking to this person, this person, this person, this person. And then also a dance floor. I never saw, I didn't know there was a dance floor. That's crazy.

Which good for me. We were on it. Were we on it? Yeah, during the speeches. Nobody was dancing. Yeah, during the speeches. No one was dancing. No one actually danced.

No. That's not true. Wait, tons of people. So many people danced. Guys, I'm so sorry. I was in a cocoon of people. No, so many people danced. I was going to say.

I was, get low was on, I was getting low. And it was so funny because one of our architects for the new building, who was an older gentleman with his wife, was on the dance floor, but like at a cafe table, not dancing. But they were kind of just like watching everyone and like cheering people on. And I just got so self-conscious because I was like throwing down. As you should. I was like dancing.

And I'm like, I can't have you watch me because we're going to go to a meeting on Tuesday, and I got to be a professional in front of you. I'm seeing him later today, so I'm just like, I mean, do you have to be, I mean, it's good to be professional, but it's also like our channel, what do we do here? Yeah, true. Yeah. That's true.

You can throw down. You need to show him who's boss at the party. Yeah, exactly. Throw down. Yeah. My favorite part of the party, and I realize he's not in the room with us, but at the end of the party, Jonathan. He's not in the room because he got kicked out.

He got kicked out. Jonathan, many of you know, as much. Mr. Chips. He's going to love that. I didn't see Jonathan until the party was like ending. And it's always the quote of the night when you're at a party and right as you're leaving you see someone for the first time. I know.

And he comes up to me and like several other cast memories. He's like, Shane, you know I fuck with you heavy. Like, oh, Courtney, you know I fuck with you heavy. Like just saying it to everyone. He was like so sweet. So nice. I fuck with you heavy. I fuck with you heavy.

No, if I said that, it would be an issue. You could not say that. You know, Shane, I fuck with you. I couldn't deliver it as well as Jonathan delivered it. Like, Jonathan delivered it so earnestly, so sweetly. It was really awesome. And then he started pulling out some chips and started slowly. I love Jonathan.

Oh, Jonathan's the best. But that was the party. That's the thing. It's like so many people work at Smosh and then so many people are in our sphere, right? Like, I would be like going through the party and I see James and Elise. or at CMAQ does it Yes Aurora Matrix

Yeah Oh my god Aurora Matrix Oh my god It was so fun Extended universe And so you're just kind of seeing new people all the time

And there's such fun people to talk to Like people that we work with And then other friends You just you want I felt like This like how I feel every day I'm just like I wanted to talk to everybody

Yeah totally Everybody and I need to get better About being like Oh I gotta like I gotta go now talk to this person but then the person I was talking to, I was enjoying. I was, like, loving the conversation that we were having. Yeah, that was certainly an amazing part of the year.

Yeah. Definitely. It was epic. It was a great, like, close out, especially that going to the Spotify party was really fun because I got to see some people that I haven't seen in a while. And then the holiday party was so. Yeah. But it was.

I was, like, looking at, like, Shane and Tommy, and I was like, I'm like, Tommy was like, I haven't seen you all night. And I was like, I literally, I know, I haven't seen you there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Going back again to this podcast, we were talking about this before. How cool is it that this podcast is getting close to a million subscribers? I'm super excited.

I'm so proud. I'm so proud of you guys, proud of this team. What was it at when we started? Like zero. It wasn't at zero. I'm kidding. But I think it was at like 200. I think it was like at 200 when you guys started.

I think it was around 400. when I hopped on. Whoa. I think it jumped pretty quickly, like, when we started it. Because this channel was kind of a dead channel for several years, right? We did Smoshcast back in the day, and it had a good following, but it never really, like, took off enough that we were like, we eventually sunset it because we were just like, we're not really, I think because you guys had different hosts.

We didn't really know what it was, and the pandemic made it really hard to do. So we kind of, it was kind of a dead channel, just kind of there for years. and then we started it back up and so I think people were really excited at the beginning of that and then yeah but its growth since then has been what's really exciting

because I think it's like it's cool when you announce something and there's a big surge and it's like great well people are excited about the idea of this thing but then like years on it's like is it have we followed through

and are people actually staying for it no I was I was telling Kiana about it because I was like the podcast yeah there are surges when like when you and Courtney announced that you were married and like baby announcement right but like the the growth has been so steady like throughout the months like i i've calculated it down to like the number of weeks number of days that like we hit constantly hit like a hundred k and it's been steady which means i think it is a testament to you guys and how talented and funny you guys are and

our team for keeping it like running consistently um and a steady i couldn't ask for more like a steady growth is like yeah the best thing it is the best yeah it's because it's the most sustainable yeah um so one of my favorite things that we do because that's why it's like if i if we take time from the pot i will say i really miss the pod when i was on maternity leave oh just simply because i got to like i got to catch up and like hang out and be like what are you doing what are we doing and i got to People would be like, oh, Amanda, why are you asking that question? Like, I missed that. Yeah.

I missed it. We want you to ask the questions. I know. I missed it. And, like, looking back at the year of, like, us doing episodes on the pod, I'm just like, those feel like decades ago. Yeah. We were looking through the whole catalog from this year of all of our episodes.

And I was like, that was this year. Right. Right. We read diary entries this year. Yeah. We read diary entries. We had my Reddit stories. Bob the Drag Queen.

Bob the Drag Queen. was like five years ago. Bob the drag queen played his song and you and Courtney just fived out and so did I. That was amazing. This year, man. It's really trippy.

And now at this stage like you being gone, both feels like it was like years and also just like a blip of time. I know. I know. So trippy. It feels very far away right now.

Yeah. Like I came back a month ago and it feels so far away. I was like, that didn't even happen. Yeah. While we were doing Angela and Damien's episodes, every time, like, it didn't even occur to me that it was Angela's last episode that she was filming. I know.

And Damien's last episode, it went by so fast. But while we were in it, I was like, dang, it's been like three months since Amanda's been here. Yeah. And it's like, I couldn't keep up. Sorry. I'm going to stop. I'm going to stop doing that. Fix it.

Do we have hopes for any dreams that we want to do on this podcast? I want to take it outside of here. We've really talked about taking it outside. Okay, okay, okay. But we did that for summer games. That doesn't count. Okay, okay. Talk about really taking it outside.

Now that I'm back and I'm not pregnant. Yeah. We can still go on a roller coaster with this pod. I don't know what that looks like. I don't know either. I don't know if it's Shane and I miced up trying to have a full interview pod on roller coasters all day long? I don't know.

I think, okay, here's probably the, like, easiest. Here's how we pilot this, all right? Not the whole episode, but you and I get miced up, and we get on a pot on, we get miced up, we get on a roller coaster. It'll be audio only. Of course. And so we record a podcast for however long the roller coaster is. And then we listen back to it here, and we play the audio from that here.

And we comment on it? And then we talk about it. That's kind of fun. That's a way to do it to see what gets picked up. Yeah. It's just going to be like, literally, literally. It's going to be nothing.

Because we were talking about this last year, and then you told us that you're like, oh, I was like, oh, I'm going to have to push that episode because I'm pregnant. I'm not allowed to get on a roller coaster. But, okay, so we spend the whole day and we record a bunch of. different roller coasters. And then we come back, you're right, and we play it. We should get on a roller coaster, and the second we get on the roller coaster, we get a topic. Like, we get the topic, we get on the roller coaster, and we cannot start talking

until we're on it, and the ride starts. And then that's the topic. You start talking about it. And you only talk about it while the coaster's moving. Yeah, as soon as it stops, you have to stop talking. Done topic. And maybe we can get topics from fans or, like, comments or something. Tell us if that's, like, worth to do.

Yeah, guys, tell us if that's worth to do. Would you guys worth to do, send us, like, topics that we talk about on a roller coaster and then play it back here and comment on it? Let us know if that's just so crazy. Tell us if that's crazy, too. And some. Yes, we've talked about doing a wine tasting. I don't know if anyone would care about that.

I don't know. I'd care about it. I think they would care if you. You care about it. I would care because Shane's now getting into wine and it would be fun to watch him wine taste. And see if I can guess wines correctly. Yeah. Oh, God.

Shane guesses wine. Should we just take the Psalm test and see how well we do? We're not going to do well. What if we pass? You don't know that. You don't know that. Shane, we're not going to pass. What if we pass?

It's, it's. Oh, my God. That's what I'm. What if you pass? Shane's the Psalms right there. It is like so much work. Not really. Oh.

Oh. I'm going to drink some wines and I'm going to guess. This isn't like Cab and Merlot, honey. I'm not saying we're going to pass it. I'm saying we take the test. And taking the test is not a lot of work. Passing it's a lot of work. Taking the test is drinking some wine.

Okay. So can we take the test here and just do it? Yeah. Can you do that? We did that with Jeopardy and failed. Yeah, minus the wine. Drew. Well, that's because we had Ian typing all the answers.

and it was just so insane. He was just typing things and sending them in before we said it was good. That was one of my favorite. I mean, I love Jeopardy, so like I love that. One of my favorite episodes, but I love when we do like a little bit of a gamified episode. Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah. It keeps it interesting and, like, I'm competitive, so. I would love to find more games for this podcast. Well, we have some. Yeah. We have some. We have some. We have some ideas.

And we did like, we did top five with Mac does it. Mack does it. That was really, really fun. We did Never Have I Ever with Keith. True. We've always done kind of like a version of like NotSap character, who we've seen online vibes. I want to bring back like secret words maybe with a few, like fewer words, but that was fun for me. And also, I don't know how we're going to do this again, but the riddles. Oh, the riddles was fun.

That was awesome. Is that where we read them off the teleprompter? Riddles was a really good one. The tall prompter Riddles was a solid one from this year Riddles was so fun I was with Damien And he was so good at them

Of course Yeah And I was also Very fun As always And we did bingo We did bingo Yes

That's crazy And you won Or you got bingo first I got bingoed first She ain't got bingoed first She's doing all my phrases All the time Laughing off this way

And going That's so funny wearing a white t-shirt was my favorite one. Truly, every day. I'm not good. I'm trying to dress, like, I'm trying to build out my wardrobe, make like a little nice little capsule wardrobe.

Here's a problem. When we film here at Smosh, we're filming usually four things a day. Yeah. So I kind of wear like one pair of pants and then I'm like, what's like a top that I can switch out with one other thing? I end up with white t-shirts a lot

because I can just throw something on it And then I could take that thing off, just to, just to differentiate the episodes a little bit. There's nothing wrong with white t-shirts. Some dudes wear like black only all the time, and there's nothing wrong with that. No. It's cute. Yeah, it's fine. I can't do that.

If you wore just jeans in a black t-shirt every day, it'd be really funny. Do you think so? People are like, oh my God, she's so crazy and fun. And also, she just dresses like Elon Musk every day. Oh, my God. That would be awful. Have I just got all tattoos? That might be sick as hell.

Oh, my neck. That might be sick as hell. Might be cool. I just do a total makeover. Okay, speaking of clothes and such, you guys should guess my top five favorite pieces of clothing. Oh. Okay.

Okay. Top five favorite pieces of clothing. Yes. We're probably way past this, but I'm going to flash it anyway. Nice. 30 minutes. Yes. So, Selena, you have several categories,

and we're going to play. The game that we played with Mac does it, where we try to guess each other's top fives of a given category. You get more points for the higher up in the category that you get. So are we trying to guess her, like, five is the worst, one is the best? Yes. Well, and it's the top five, though, so all of them are great. But one is better than this. Yeah, it's a family feud type situation.

We ask one Selena for five favorite clothing items. Okay, clothing items is tough, but I think I got that. this. Oh, I included like accessories. Accessories. Anything? Okay. Shoes. Okay. Okay. You go first. Like, cute belt situation. No, but I did think about

I'm going to go with, I'm going to go out. You know, now that I got number one, I'm going to take some risks. Oh, please. Just stop talking. I'm going to say gold. No, but I really thought about it. I really did. But it's not on the list.

Number two. Okay. Number two, number two. Fair. Fine. Okay, I think you're a very organized person, so I would think maybe green. No, I actually don't like green. Yeah, green sucks. Isn't that your favorite color?

Oh, no, it's orange. It's international orange. Yeah, whoa. Green doesn't suck, actually. I like, I like green. I don't really, there's not really many colors I don't like nowadays. Turquoise used to be the one I despised. Because, and I'll tell you why, it was a nostalgic thing.

Growing up in Arizona in the 90s, there was so much bullshit turquoise everywhere, right? Like, every shopping center had, like, old turquoise signs that just had, they were there for decades. They just aged. It looked horrible. Yep. So I associated it with kind of like lame stuff in Arizona. Yeah. Nowadays I like turquoise. It's grown on me. Getting away from Arizona, I now have a new appreciation for it.

I actually miss it. When I go back to Arizona and everything is like slate gray and dark brown, I'm like, I miss the personality. I know. Me too. I love turquoise. All right. Okay. Um, like a yellow, like a mango yellow. Uh, that's so cool. but that's that's also a good one but no um look i'm gonna throw out one of my favorites that i got shit on for but i'm gonna say any version of brown i give it to you it's burnt sienna okay it's like a reddish brown okay burnt sienna nice i love that's a good one i love a warm brown

yeah me too me too yeah love it same same kind of kind of like this okay yeah yeah oh oh oh oh oh oh oh burgundy? I'll give it to you. A maroon. Yeah. Was that number five? Yeah, it was number five. Maroon five? Oh, I didn't even think about that. Best band ever. I'm kidding. I am kidding. Truly am kidding. I did listen to Maroon 5 a lot, though. Of course. Everyone did, right? But does anyone still?

I think they do. Aren't they done? Are they done? Is Adam Levine just on his own? I don't know. What does he do these days? Maroon 5 fans get in the comments Tell us about them You have one last category One last category? No one last color

And also one last color Yeah Oh shit, what number is it? Number three Oh shoot Can I say No no no you Actually

No no you go No I just guessed I guess brown No and I I guess burgundy Oh Yeah And you got maroon

Right Okay I'm gonna say I'm gonna say Purple I'll give it to you A pale lavender Pale lavender and purple

I love Pastels and warm colors. It makes sense that you know the very specific colors because looking at like your journals and stuff, you color code so much. Yeah. So you probably have your colors dialed in. So what color is math? Math is green because green is numbers. Money is green and it's numbers and it's math.

Math is. No. Math is. Science is blue because the earth is 70% warm. Water. History is red because war. And English or literature is yellow because that was the only one left. Math is red.

Whatever. It's fine. We did that episode this year, didn't we? Yeah. That was also this year. I knew it would cause a stir. Yeah, because your colors were all off. That's why it caused to stir.

No, plenty of the top comments agreed with me. I actually don't think they did. They all were like, oh, my God, Shane should leave the channel. I think they definitely agreed But anyways One last category? Yay! Dream jobs

Oh shoot Yeah Okay I did include my real Like number one job You go first Like circus salee No but that's funny

Do you do aerial yoga? Do you still do it? No I don't I don't do it as much anymore It's hard to find the time To go to the studios Because there's not one Like super close by

So yeah Got it But I do love it Dream jobs. I'm going to say, like, being, like, one of those, like, high-up, like, backup dancers. Oh, that's so good. That's actually better than anything that I've written. Damn.

It's crazy. Ew, I hate when you do this. It's so gross. Can we just comment how gross Shane is? Like, come on. No, that's so good. That's, uh, you're welcome. You're welcome for your dreams.

Right. Well, actually, I don't know. I feel like... I feel like sitcoms will cut... I'm doing this. My hands are face down. They're still around, but yeah, it's kind of in a weird zone. It's in a weird space right now.

Multi-cam sitcom? No, single. Single-cam sitcom. Like the Goldbergs. What is that show, anyways? Who was on that? Who even was on that show? I don't even know.

You should tell people what they should do. No, no. Salina, don't. Don't. I should guess the things they don't know about themselves. No, Selena, don't. We cannot have Shane in this power.

Okay, go on. I was thinking something with like,

It's stationary, but that's not, right? Well, that's what I just, that's kind of what I just said. No. Okay, not chasing fish. Crazy. That sucks for you. God. A host of a travel show.

Oh, you got real close. That's also good. I said game show host. I think I was just thinking of like hosting. Game show host. But travel show would be really cool. too. That's what I wanted to do back in the day. I literally wanted a company to pay me to travel the world and be like a host. Yeah. I think you could do that. Almost like you know when Conan O'Brien

would travel and try crazy things. I wouldn't want to try a bunch of crazy food. I would want to like go to these destinations and like experience it for a first time. Right. And be filmed. I don't know. That'd be really cool. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. Like a host of sorts. Okay. A host. Yeah. Three. Number three. Number three. All right. Man. I keep. The other ones are just, I don't know how you're They're just, like, out of the blue. Okay, I'm going to throw out one, lawyer. No. I don't like debating.

Okay. Would you? I think I would be bored out of my mind. No, you're right. Or would I? I know, that job. Depends on where. I think that job sucks because you're bored and then you deal with some bullshit.

Yeah, you do with some bullshit. Let's speed it up for a second. All right, we'll guess a couple more, and then you just got to tell us. Okay, okay. a jeweler. No. Stand-up comic. No.

But also a good one. You work at like a garden, the gardens. No. You're like, okay. Okay, I'm just going to tell you guys. All right. The second is counselor or therapist. I feel like I would be really good at that.

Yeah. People tell me their problems all the time. Yeah. And then I said, I want to replace this. I want to replace backup dancer with this one because I actually don't know if I want to do this personal shopper i was just trying to i was grasping at straws i was like personal shopper yeah yeah i would hate to do that i really would i i don't think i would be good at it do you not like

shopping no i hate to shop wow it's like a thing if i if i'm going out to shop i give myself an hour if i hit if i go past the hour mark i lose my mind whoa i hate shopping interesting i don't actually like online shopping the only thing i like shopping for is uh like different dishware, like, awesome, like, glasses and, like, coops and wine coops. I love shopping for wine bottles, and I love shopping for jewelry. I cannot stand any other shopping. Interesting. What is it you don't like about it?

I'm just so curious. I get really overwhelmed. Yeah, I feel that. I get really overwhelmed. I'm also just, like, trying on a million clothes. It's just, like, really, it doesn't make me feel super good. But that's why you do it for someone else. I don't know.

But, like, I'm not. Yeah, I'm not big picture type person You know how someone like, like okay Like Courtney is an incredible shopper Like she she puts together these outfits That are just like unbelievable It's like I can't big picture that Yeah

I need to like see it and go Oh yeah I like that and have someone Give it to me It's pretty astounding to watch them like When they're shopping They'll see something and be like Oh and they know like where it fits in With everything in their life

Yes Whereas I Clothing shopping is exhausting because once I make it out there and I'm putting on stuff I'm like oh right everything looks dumb on me yeah like that's suddenly that's like what occurs like happens when you're shopping

and you're putting stuff on you're like no actually everything yes it looks good there and then as soon as I put it on I hate it and then I kind of don't know how to piece it together with everything but I agree on some things like Barnes & Noble I could spend all day at books I can just look at

me like a dish like a beautiful glass dishware place or like a wine shop. Like a Surletab. Like a Surletab. I love that Solitab. Like a saletab. Oh my God. Craitmer.

But what's crazy is I never go into those stores. I never go because I know I'm going to get lost. Yeah. You're going to keep me in there. Selena, that's a great list. Yeah. My last one is librarian just because I like. Oh, librarian. Oh. I like organizing and I like

I like watching these episodes. Y'all are funny. I also could not thrift. I'm not good at thrifting either. My friend is incredible thrifting. She gets glassware of it. I'm like, where did you get this? I don't have the best eye, like, when I'm shopping.

Yeah. Yeah, pretty cool. You just picked Sean up off the street. Oh. Sad dog. You were off the street. Yeah. Oh, I'm so glad you're here.

I keep a trim out in the street. You keep it trim, baby. I know what that means. I don't know what that means either. Sean, you came by here a while ago, but it was when Damien was hosting with me. Yes. And you were happy to be here. Obviously, I know you're a fan of everyone here at Smosh.

But I know that you were sad to be here when Amanda wasn't here. I heard that. Because I told Spencer I was watching like the Resident Evil stuff for so long. You watched it? I watched more Smosh than anybody here. Yeah, and I heard that Ian like just, just dissed you, man. Yeah. It's more than, I don't think he dissed you.

I think he just probably just. No, he shouted me out on a speech at the party, so we're even. Yeah, he just. just kind of like threw them all in my court and was like and Jack's Heptic guy's here and I was like I saw that. I was like what do I do? Do I go up? You gave a speech. You go up.

That would be great. So do you like the Resident Evil's? I do. They're so crazy. There's new ones coming out in March. February March? I think we actually are going to play those and can't wait to see it in September when you guys recorded. No, no literally. You're so right. Actually don't know if the video that we did with Spencer is going to

out during this time. Oh. Well, I hear he explains everything. Oh, there's more Resident Evil. I mean, I think we can say. There's more Resident Evil stuff coming. There's more Resident Evil stuff coming. Spencer loves it so much.

He's finding a way. And we will be playing it. Hell, you. Well, we won't be playing it. We'll be in the background, eating snacks, watching Spencer play. And that's exactly how it should be. Yeah, right?

That's why it's funny. If I'm watching Spencer play a game on his own, it's not that fun. Because he's not going to talk. No, because he's just good at the game. It's like, it's lame. It's stupid. That's what I do. I don't want to watch that.

Did you ever watch Five Nights at Freddy's, too? I did. Yeah. What did you think about that? It was great. It sounds like you have PTSD. I'm loving just like, did you watch this one? I know.

I know, I know. It's like that school kid comes over. I'm having a conversation with him that I shouldn't be having on the pot. I shouldn't have had it before. Well, what are your, since you watch us so much, what are your top moments of smosh? Oh, yeah. Have you have any. Do you have some favorite things?

I mean, Fred Darts is always top tier. Yeah, yeah. The meatloaf. It's hard to beat that. I have to shout out the butt picture one because I was saying that was the first thing I saw of like current new Jen Smosh. And I would say that's an Amanda moment,

because you are going off there. I could not turn that painting because you refused to stop. And you guys kind of mellowed out for a second and then ramped back up. What were we talking about? You were just yelling. me. Oh, yeah. Well, yeah. You were yelling

at me to show the painting and I was like, can I, can we just get some quiet for a second? And you just as the qualified smosh person here. Yeah. They thought it was balls and then it was a butt. Yeah. So you guys were like, show us the balls. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We went a little psycho. And it's so fun to do on Shane.

Because he gets overwhelmed. You know, he kind of loses his mind. Well, he got the thousand yards stare for a while. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that was a good one. That was a really good one. I kind of lose my mind a lot. I mean, you guys must have some favorite smosh moments, either yours or somebody else's? Well, I was saying that

when I presented my Reddit stories. That was a good one. I haven't seen that. I went through I went through... There's a lot of moments here. You might not need to see it. No, I went through Reddit and found my favorite subreddits and then presented it and Chance

and Jane were like, oh. Good job Amanda. That's fun. Victorian, whatever, one of them. You are subredits that were like, well, there you go. No, mine was like, wasn't mine only like Jersey. It was like Long Island. It was like the

Long Island subredits. Pretty good stuff. Yeah, they thought it was fine. Pretty good quality. Maybe this is why I haven't seen it. It hasn't made any of the compilations. No, no, probably not. I don't think it ever will.

That's sad. Yeah. It's hard to keep track of all the moments. I feel like already this week, it's only Tuesday. And this week I already have favorite moments. Wow. From what's going on. It's just how you guys live out here.

It's just nuts, man. Also, even on the channel, like, even on almost every single show that we have. Yeah, I haven't had my Smeagot. I think main channel is the only thing I'm not doing. Yeah. Because I, it's cringe and I don't want to. They pitched it to me and I was like, I'd rather die.

I love you so much. That is fucking awesome. I'd rather die. No, Angela wanted me on it. She was like, let's do it right now. And she pulled out her phone and she was like, hey, we're on Bits City. And I was like, hi. Yeah, you're like, no, I don't like this at all.

Get me out of here. It would be fun. I think doing character shit is really funny to do. Wigs? Yeah. Yeah? I think as a bright. This isn't one if you're asking.

No, okay, wait. Is this your natural hair color? Yeah. It's so fucking awesome. Thank you. When did your hair start going like silver? First gray hair I ever got was 16. Really?

Yeah. Mine was 15 too. I was on a trampoline with my friends and he was like, I thought I saw gray hair at the top of your head and he plucked it out. And I was like, oh, wait. You're never supposed to pluck out gray hair. That's a myth. No, it's not.

Check your subreddit. It's not. I actually fucking shit. Check your subredits. Check your conspiracy subreddit. Okay, wait. What was your, what color was your hair? Brown or?

It was kind of like my beard color. It was brown. And then I dyed my hair green for YouTube. Shout out. Everyone knows the green hair there. And then when I had to dye back brown to get my natural color back, then the gray started to really show. And I was like, I don't like it.

You didn't like it? I kept dying it for years until last year and I let it go. It looks awesome. It's literally. Thank you. Incredible. Thank you. I feel like people who go gray, that's the color that they want.

People, it's always like, it's always like sandy gray, but yours is like gray silver. Yeah, in the early, like, when I was like 20 doing YouTube, you could see like the salt and pepper a little bit, but. How long have you been doing YouTube? 13 years. Holy shit. You're sitting on a channel that's done it 20 years. I know, I know, but whatever. Yeah, but we weren't paying attention.

Yeah, yeah, whatever. 13 years. Did you always, like, do it on your? own or do you do you are you still doing it on your own i have like a team at home now that's it's like max four people that i work with so and you hired them yeah don't worry about that noise who's cheering yeah they're filming try not to laugh yeah they're filming trying to laugh yeah which you're about you're in i know i'm nervous you and me are you nervous yes okay well wait i'm nervous too because i've only done one since i got back that's yeah and try not to laugh used to be my happy

Are all your jokes about babies now? Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. All about babies and birth. I'm nervous because a lot of just try not to laugh stuff is like inside jokes which I feel like I'm not privy to many of them, but it's also like I'm good at like showing up and bringing energy and react. And that's all you need. That's all you need. And then try not to laugh is like, okay, now go out and do a bit.

And I'm like, I think I can do it, but you're going to be fine. You can take anybody, me or anybody out to do your bit. Okay. I actually don't usually do inside jokes. You want to do a wrestling move? Yeah. DDT? Yeah, you want to throw me up in the air? No, you're throwing me.

Oh, I'm going to throw you? I'm just like, ah! Throw me through a wall or something. That's all TNTL takes. If you just commit 100%, you're going to be fine. Your episode of TNTL that you're about to film will probably air a couple months from this episode. But it's going to be great. Have you guys always been so open about how far ahead you are?

I think it's in particular right now. I think recently it's been very... We're a little more ahead than I think we haven't been open about that. ever plan on being ever again for reasons. I worried that I'm to blame for that because people found out I was coming and then that episode didn't air for like three months and people were like, what's okay? No, no. I feel like we're more open on the pod.

Yeah. Because the pod used to, we would film it and it was always like a month later. Only until, I don't know, a year, did it get more topical? I forget. I just think we've been honest about it. I think people know, like, when they see me in like, so. social posts and I don't have a mustache, but I have a mustache from months ago in a video. It's hard to not clock when you're watching, especially if you're watching it every day.

You're just like, this didn't happen today. Well, a bit city got released when I was on maternity leave. And everyone's like, oh my God, she's back. And I'm like, no, no, I'm like five months pregnant in that. You can just convince the internet you're anywhere. Just go on a holiday and like plan out a European trip. And then keep posting those all year. And people are like, did they move?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You could fuck with people. Sean, we need to have you back here sometime, like for a whole episode. I know. I keep saying like, I'll come. I'll do everything all day. I'll do every video. And then they're like, here's three things you can do.

I'm like, come on. You want to do every video? Yeah. Ooh. All right. The three videos are going to take like five hours. Okay. I mean, you're in a lot of videos today.

I am. You're doing a try not to laugh and then you're going to be in Reddit stories later. I'm excited. And you're in games video with me. Yeah. You're doing a whole bunch, man. I'm so excited. I'm excited. Welcome.

So pumped. My energy I bring is that I'm the shitty little brother and I will make fun of you. I watched. I don't know why that's my default. That's what I go to. That's my love language is to like make fun of people for some reason. There's nothing better than having the shitty little brother. I don't know my energy.

We were just talking about it that my energy is kicked up a notch since I got back from maternities. Trying to prove something. Like it's a little crazy. I don't actually think so. I actually don't think so. I was wondering how long it would take. I'm trying really hard. With Shane and Damien, it was like 15 minutes.

I'm trying really... Well, like I said, my brother-in-law has a very thick, thick accent. Okay. So any time that I'm around him, I start to do it. And he thinks my accent is awful. I've heard way worse. Yeah, okay. There you go.

Or you turn into like a Simpsons police officer that some people do. No. So does this, is this like not good? Oh, wait. Wait, this is kind of different. Oh. I don't know what you're doing I don't actually know either

What's going on? Everyone close your eyes And just listen to a man there right now I don't actually know what's happening So do you like Do you like this accent? Is this like Northern Ireland or Northern Ireland?

No, it's nothing. I would just say let the internet judge you. Oh. And we love that here. And they do and they will. Just let them do it. I'm not going to speak for all of my people. Your people.

Also my accent is kind of gone. We were talking about it last time. Yeah, you sound like you're from Camarillo. Well, that's why... Where the fuck is Camarillo? Nobody knows. We can't find it. That's why at the party, I was like, wait, where are you from? Because it was slight.

Yeah, when I say, like, oh, I'm going to go to the bar. Then it comes out. The bar. Wait, so how long have you been here? De bar! How long have you been here? Like a week? No.

I don't live here. Yeah. Where the fuck do you live? I live in the UK. That one was bad. Oh, really? Yeah. So why is your accent so light, you said?

Because all my friends are American, and all the stuff I watch is American. My partners from the Netherlands, and their accents sound American where they speak English. Your partners from the Netherlands? Yeah. That's incredible. All right, I think. Wait, no, we can't stop. No, no.

Clearly, we just need to have Sean back. Yeah. For real. Clearly, I just need to hang out with Sean. Okay. This has been so much fun. Selena, thank you for everything that you do. Thank you guys.

We love you, Selena. We love you so much, Selena. And, Sean, thanks for stopping by. My presence is brought to you by Zoc Doc. But also thank you to you guys for watching and for helping us grow. I'm very happy to be back, even if I am, a nutty. Hey. With that, we'll see you in 2026.

Bye. Thank you.
