Hi, welcome to Smoshmouth.
I'm Shane.
And I'm Amanda, and we have a very wonderful guest with us today.
Trevor.
Oh, I'm wonderful.
Thanks.
I'm finished up.
I said special before, and now I'm saying wonderful.
Because we're in a different place.
Yeah.
Look at this place.
It's wonderful.
We feel like a normal podcast, I feel like.
It's so beautiful.
Look at all the toucans.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Two cans everywhere.
I actually didn't know that right now.
My tiny picture.
We had to bring him.
Of course.
Rambay is everywhere with me.
For those who don't know,
Smosh is moving its studios from Rancho Cucamonga to Oxnard.
Oxnard is a really cool place.
I've actually never been to Oxnard.
Oh, that's crazy.
I've been there so many times.
My parents, that's where my parents are from.
Really?
Yeah, Ventura and Oxnard.
They went to high school there.
That's crazy.
I've heard it's gorgeous, which it doesn't, the name doesn't sound gorgeous.
It sounds like Oxford in England, so that's what's helping me.
But Nard?
Nard?
It's a beautiful place.
It's crazy.
I love it.
It doesn't sound like a beach town.
Ventura.
Ventura sounds so much more.
Ventura sounds more like a long beach.
Like Ventura.
Yeah, Ventura.
Yeah, Ventura.
But Oxnard sounds like it's in the middle of nowhere.
It sounds like there's a lot of universities around.
Yeah.
Are we, we're not viving on Oxnard.
Like, I have Oxnard as different in my head than you guys.
I think so.
Okay.
You're thinking of it as academic.
Well, yes.
And I just see like a bunch of car dealerships.
It's an academic school that people are fighting for their lives and they have to bond with a dragon.
And if they don't bond with a dragon, they will die.
That's just fourth wing.
See, I see it as the place
that I would go sometimes when I was a kid to visit family.
Yeah, you're too close to it.
Yeah, I'm too close.
I can't have an opinion on Ogsnard.
Yeah, you shouldn't have an opinion on that.
I totally get that.
Moving our studios.
So in the meantime, we're here.
And it's just a temporary.
And it's so cute.
Yeah.
This chair?
It's very nice.
This chair is actually incredible.
I got to say.
I'm so comfy.
I am excited to get a new chair for Reddit stories.
Whoa.
I need a.
You and chair have been having a chair.
problems. Well, that chair...
I sat in Shane's chair for two seconds
during a live stream. What is wrong
with that chair? I don't actually know.
It's like a consistent, you want to go
backwards, but that's not the point of it.
It's far more leaned back than it looks.
Yeah. And it doesn't have arm rest.
No. It's not
really... It was just the chair we had. And we just threw it out there
back in the day. And then we just didn't change it because
it was just like, yeah. But you sit there for out.
Shane sometimes sleeps in that chair.
chair. That's how long he does read his stories for. Yeah. Yeah. We stopped down for a little bit. I'm like,
let me just take a nap right here. Sometimes overnight. Yeah. You know. But, uh, we don't want you to do
that. In the new space, you can't do that. Yeah, we're getting a new chair. I don't know exactly what
the new chair is going to be like. I hope it's something like this. This is one of the most comfortable
chairs I've ever sat in. Can I just say I just got so conscious of the fact that now people can see my lower
half? Because normally we're sitting at the table and I'm like, it doesn't matter what I'm doing
with my legs and I just thought about it and I just immediately started fidgeting.
I'm like, does my, do my legs look weird?
It's great.
That's why I wear these socks.
No, and you're wearing, your shoes match the top.
Okay, it's great.
Thank you.
I do, when we're filming like a couple episodes of Smoshmouth, I, it is nice that I don't
have to worry about what pants I'm wearing if it like works.
Oh yeah.
As a whole outfit.
Sometimes I'll just go Winnie the Pooh.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No.
At the table?
I have noticed that.
It's tough for me to focus.
It is really tough.
It's hard to ignore.
He comes in and just strips and then since.
Yeah, I was wearing pants, but I take them off to sit on that little tiny school chair.
Yeah.
The new set will show your lower halves.
What?
You know what?
I'm fine with that because I always wear nice lower halves.
I always put on my nicest lower halves.
Wow.
My lower halves.
Everybody loves my lower halves.
That's crazy.
I got to get new pants.
I need to go pants.
I never change our pants for a smoshmoth.
We'll just change our shirts.
I try to wear one pair of pants for a whole shoot day.
It does make outfits tough.
I do end up wearing just white t-shirt and something over it pretty much every day.
Because I'm like, what else works with four different variations?
There's nothing wrong with wearing a white t-shirt.
If I could wear a white t-shirt every day, I would.
But me in a white t-shirt is weird.
Like me and like a white t-shirt.
It just makes me feel like I went to gym class and I forgot.
You got to try it out sometime.
I guess.
I'll try it.
I'll wear it with a gold chain.
It depends on what type of white t-shirt, too.
We should do a video and we just all wear white t-shirts and jeans
and then pretend that it was an accident and be like, what?
Oh, can't believe we all did this?
This is wild.
I just spoiled it.
Now everybody knows.
So we haven't actually recorded a new episode of this show in a minute
because we kind of batched up a bunch of episodes before we left our old studio.
It's been almost a month.
It's been like a month.
And a lot has happened in a month.
Angela, Angela and Chance and Olivia played us.
Yeah.
That was so fun.
That was a great episode.
Unbelievable.
Loved that.
Very fun episode.
But yeah, so much happened maybe in our lives.
Just in general, as well.
Punch.
Oh, I hate that video.
Don't talk to me about pun.
Every video.
I do not like those videos.
So Courtney had a prediction for this year.
and it was that monkeys are going to do something new.
Reject their own?
Yeah, yeah.
Be a huge loser.
Yeah.
Because punch, like...
Whoa.
Whoa, are you saying punch is a loser?
Everybody hates him.
Like, he's kind of a reject.
Crazy punch take.
I'm not punching down right now.
Whoa.
Everybody hates him?
That means you hate him, Shane?
No, I'm saying the monkeys hate him.
In the monkey world.
So do you agree with them?
No.
but I am a homo sapian
I am far far more intelligent
he's a homo all right
yeah
no the punch videos they are brutal
but then you'll see a video where it's like oh one of the monkeys
likes him and is hugging him and then like the next video is like
that monkey doesn't like him anymore
dude it is what the fuck is going on
that first day I learned about punch was such a roller coaster
because I saw I was like oh my god this monkey is getting bullied
and I wanted to cry 20 minutes later I see a video
actually the monkey has a friend now
and I was like, yes!
And then another video comes
and it's the monkeys being mean again.
What's going on?
All I can think about is like,
you know, fuck those other monkeys.
Like Punch is awesome.
He's clearly awesome and ahead of his time.
That's how I look at that situation.
Yeah, he's a Renaissance man.
Yeah, exactly.
It's really hard for me in a lot.
I really, that story needs to turn out well.
Like, like, he needs to inevitably.
I just, I'm like, if he never gets accepted fully
into that tribe.
What is the possible reason why a monkey would not be accepted?
Is it their scent?
Like, what is it?
I'm not.
I'm not.
No, I know this.
Sure.
This is just opinion.
Okay, okay.
Are our assumptions?
Yeah, I think it's like kind of power dynamics in the animal kingdom.
Like one monkey's kind of being mean to be like, yeah, I'm a big dog.
Like, it's kind of like very human of like, I'm going to bully this kid because I want people to see that I'm strong.
Everyone is bullying him.
Everyone's, yeah.
I wonder if it's just a hierarchy thing.
Like, you add one monkey to the chain.
And it's just like, all right, where do you fit in here?
Because there's an order to things.
So if you're added, who is above you and who's below you.
Well, it's like Planet of the Apes, you know?
It's like they hated, they hated Caesar when.
And, you know, Planet of the Apes is crazy.
Because it's like, what?
Because Caesar was mean.
I didn't like Caesar either.
Caesar was mean in Planet of the Apes?
Wasn't he?
Am I crazy?
I don't think so.
I feel like he just was kind of a monkey.
It's been a minute since I've watched all of Planet of the Apes.
Yeah.
I'm forgetting.
I'm,
but like the whole thing is like, you know,
all those monkeys are so mad they want to break out because there's no space,
you know,
in the enclosure.
And it's like you'd think they'd just build a bigger.
So you think maybe the little one is just taking up a little bit too much space.
The bigger one.
Could have a fix it.
I think maybe he has a different scent on him and they feel like he's not part of them.
My cats are that way,
but cats are obviously so different.
But like when my one cat goes to the vet and he comes back, our other cat hates him for days.
Because a different scent.
Hates him.
Like truly hates him.
I'm sticking with this.
And then suddenly one day is normal.
I just don't know how monkeys work.
Maybe.
How do monkeys work?
How do monkeys work?
How do monkeys work?
Put it in the car home.
Actually, that happens to me when I come home from a smoshy, Raven hates me for like a few hours.
I don't think it's how you smell.
Hey.
What the fuck?
Is it my scent?
Oh, it's my scent.
It's Shane and Amanda's tent.
Because I smell different.
She doesn't recognize me.
Maybe give Punch a little tiny like Porsche.
Gun.
Give him a gun.
Could you imagine the next animal?
Give him a gun.
The next video, it's just punched with a gun.
He's just holding it up.
All right.
You're cool.

Thanks Zok-Doc for sponsoring this message.
Back to the show.
I liked that.
What is going on?
I don't know.
I don't know, but I like it.
Okay, so that prediction, we could kind of mark that off.
Yeah.
But another prediction that I think came true effectively,
I said there'd be a gathering of a hundred Chosenes.
Oh my God.
And within a month.
And one Sarah Christ.
And one Sarah Christ.
There was one Sarah Christ.
Yeah.
So talk to us about it.
Within a month, within like January of this year, after making that prediction, some fans
here in L.A. started organizing a gathering of Chosenes.
That would happen at a park.
And it was like, oh, this is picking up steam.
Like, they're really organizing this.
There was posters around like Echo Park and stuff for it.
It was awesome.
And we started talking about it.
And then our head of social team, Erica, was like,
should we send you?
Should you go?
And I was like, sure.
Like, absolutely.
Like, you know, when I saw it was happening, I was like, yeah, like, I would be down
to go.
And I was like, well, I need to go as the chosen.
Like, I can't, yeah.
Like, the chosen goes.
And my dream was to kind of just show up and just try to, like, sneak in
and just be like part of the.
crowd. It's like, what's up? I'm another chosen here.
But they were like, okay,
it's protocol here at Smosh. Like,
you need to have like a bodyguard just
in case. I was like, we're not going to need it.
But yeah, yeah. And so
we had this like huge like six foot
five guy probably taller.
Have we met him before? Huge, huge
bodyguard and we put him in a chosen shirt.
And I was trying to explain the character. This is this guy
who's worked for like 40 years as a bodyguard.
And he's like, so what's his deal?
Like, what's the chosen deal? Does he like, does he like
howl and stuff. I was like, not really, but he just is like, he just likes wolves on a shirt,
but you know, whatever. And I, he's like, so my part of the wolf pack now is like,
yeah, man. He's like guarded precedence before. Normally I guard people who need protect him. I love
I was really trying to get the back story. He's like, okay, what's his motivation?
So there's enemies that I need to look out for. I love that. So we show up to this park and
everybody stayed in character. And it was.
awesome. I truly was just kind of blown away. I actually genuinely felt like I was like intruding
on like an event. Right. Yeah. So I was like, oh, I didn't technically. That's epic. I didn't say I was
coming on Partifle. You know, I showed up. And so I walk up and they're in the middle of doing a chosen
competition. What does that look like? Just like different skills, different skills to establish that
you're a chosen. There's many skills. The winner gets a copy of Blade 2. Okay. Okay. Perfect.
And I start walking...
Hopefully on Blu-ray.
They truly kind of like...
Everyone kind of like parts and like opens up
and I'm like suddenly in the middle of the crowd.
And then I'll just kind of staring at me and I was like,
I did not prepare a speech.
Like I was just going to show up and say hey and like hang out.
That was the Chosen.
And then I was like, I got to say something.
And I was just saying like truly it was like so cool.
I was like this is, I was kind of blown away.
Were you saying it as Shane or in the Chosen?
I was trying to stay in Chosen.
But it was hard.
I was like, this is trippy because I'm not performing.
I'm just here hanging out.
But I am this character and everybody else is this character.
And like even we were getting like a group photo like one of the Chosen's turn to me and he had like a sigh, which is one of those sick like ginger turtles knives.
He's like, he's like, chosen, do you need a weapon?
And I was like, no, I'm okay.
Thank you.
Like I was like, this is incredible.
Yeah.
It was so much fun.
That is so cool.
It really was just like, this is epic.
It was genuinely so sick.
Like I was like, I can't believe this.
So I really like, shout out to everybody.
who organized it and went.
And I'm sure there's going to be more gatherings
throughout this year.
I think I've heard about others happening.
And it's really so cool.
Like, I love that people find joy in that character.
It's so cool.
I think it's so epic that you, like, predicted that.
And then they all, you know, people have,
people are busy and doing their thing,
but they all came together.
And I love that they all stayed in character.
Yeah.
That's incredible.
One of the Chosens towards the end
of the gathering
stopped me.
As I was leaving,
they were just like,
chosen.
They're like,
just so you know,
as an actual virgin,
stolen valor.
And I was like,
that's the funniest shit.
I was like,
dude,
these people rock.
Whoa.
That was like,
incredible.
I was like,
yeah,
you're busy.
That's.
That's really good.
That's amazing.
It was so awesome.
That's so cool.
It was the best.
We got to try to like,
I don't know,
challenge our fans to more things
because they do it.
I will say, I guess I can speak about this,
but our fans are incredible.
People were sending me this.
So apparently in the Philippines,
there was a billboard of me
because it was my birthday in the Philippines.
Incredible.
And these fans are amazing.
They've reached out to me.
They're so sweet.
They're so amazing.
They had a full gathering to celebrate
my birthday after my birthday
of all different characters I play.
They had a bigger celebration for your birthday
than you did.
I know.
Incredible.
Here I went like really like minimal for my birthday
and they and they sent me
pictures and videos and I reposted
and it was just so so
it's unbelievable to me.
Like people on Slack were being like
do you see this happening? And I was like
it makes me want to go to the Philippines
and be like hey guys and show up.
as like, Tinky, well, maybe not Tinky Winky.
That's a hard costume to like walk around in.
But like Sarah Christ, like, it was just,
I'm so honored because
you come up with these characters
and you're like, you get joy
from them. And then when people get joy
and then want to dress up as them, it was
just. And Selena
was just in the Philippines as well,
which is crazy because that's where she's from. She was visiting
her family. And she didn't
see the, she didn't see the billboard
also because there's a lot of traffic.
But like, she did get invited
to one of these events and she couldn't go, but like, I just think that's...
She got to invite to your birthday party.
Incredible.
Yeah.
In the Philippines.
Did you get invited to your birthday party in the Philippines?
Oh, no.
They might have, but they didn't.
That's kind of an epic, horrible prank is to have a birthday party for someone and not invite
them.
Be like, it's your birthday.
We're like, oh, Trevor, it's your birthday party this weekend.
You're not inviting.
But we are having your birthday party.
I mean, I've never been to the Philippines, but I would love to go.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Our Pinoi brothers and sisters do not mess around.
Yeah.
They're incredible.
We did our episode where we were speaking, trying to read other languages.
And people were talking about you with Tagalog.
Yeah.
Wait, I don't know this.
So my basketball team, when I was in high school, we went over to the Philippines in the summer for a few weeks to play basketball.
And so I was just in the Philippines with my friends for a few weeks.
weeks and we had friends and they taught me this song called basketball basketball and it's funny because
it was so clear that it was like like an inappropriate like double meaning song and they're like
we have to show you this song about basketball like you're going to love it it's about basketball
yeah and then they're like the song is like basketball basketball basketball umsarap sarop mug
basketball and angserrap I believe means like tasty or something and tasty basketball and it's like
it's like it's like about sex and so the whole time they're like they're like you gotta learn this
song too like you got I was like guys are you gonna tell us what it means like it's clearly
but it is truly stuck in my head since 2016 or whenever I went it was it's been just like in my
head but it was so much fun I love the Philippines you all didn't think a white boy could speak a little
Tagalog. Hi from the Philippines? Boy, basketball, basketball.
Ansa-sar-sar-sar-a-srap, ma'basketball. Anyone from the Philippines for that one?
For that dirty song, that dirty song that I was pranked into singing by my Filipino
friends and they said, no, it's just about basketball, buddy. And I went, okay, let me sing it.
Sing it with my whole chest. How do I know that song? Because I'm him. Yeah, you all
didn't think a white boy had that in him, did you? I think it's, it was like,
some of the most fun I've ever had, like, on a trip.
I would love to go.
They're incredible.
I went to, there was a Filipino festival here in L.A.
Because we have a couple of Filipino friends, and I went, and it was unbelievable.
I think it was, where was it?
Filipino town, I guess.
Yeah, obviously.
It was so, so amazing.
Such a huge community in L.A.
Massive.
Yeah.
Anyways, I guess we all have to go to the Philippines.
I feel like I'd love that.
Sing basketball.
would love that.
It'd be fun to go and do a show in the Philippines.
I would literally love it.
Yeah.
I've literally wanted to go back ever since then.
We don't have any plans.
We don't have any plans.
But I'm saying it would be, we would be, it'd be cool.
Be cool.
I'm saying it'd be cool to do that.
Yes.
And I am a working mom.
I have help.
I have care.
My husband's incredible.
I can, I can get on a plane without my son.
Guys, I can go to the Philippines.
Okay.
Guys, I could go.
I can do it.
have a passport.
I can go.
I can go.
It won't be upset with me years later.
No.
If I miss a bedtime, even though that's what I think.
I'm like, I missed a bedtime.
He's going to remember the next day.
He won't.
I could go for some chicken adobe right now.
Oh, my God.
Sorry?
Chicken adobe.
Sorry.
I'm just, I'm just thinking about food now.
Me too.
I'm always thinking about food.
I'm not.
Anyways, that's so wild.
That's really sad.
I'm thinking about playing Pocopia.
Dude, Pocopia.
I don't know what you just said.
Okay.
Oh, is this what you guys were talking about earlier?
Let's let the men talk for a second.
Oh, wait, I forgot.
Trevor's back on the pot and I hate you.
I like you, Trevor, and then you get on the pod and something snaps.
Gentlemen, shall we go to the cigar lounge and talk about Pocopia?
Pocopia.
Tell me what this is.
Is this?
I, I, the more I try to explain it, the dumber it's going to sound.
And I love that.
It's just like, it's like a community builder.
It's like a Stardue Valley type, animal crossing type.
You go into a world and it's all about just like you've got kind of this blank slate and then you make it your own.
This sounds stupid.
This sounds fun.
You can build homes.
You can build things.
Decorate.
Water the grass.
Yeah.
Find Pokemon.
But it's really fun because it's Pokemon.
So it's like, you know, you can find Pokemon and they join your community and you.
And it's cute because instead of like catching the Pokemon, you build little habitats for them.
So it's like each Pokemon is like, ooh, you want to build a little habitats form.
like grass under a shaded tree
and then you build that and then a Pokemon
comes and lives there. Oh wait, that's really cute.
Yeah, it's awesome. It sounds like you guys are like
the town mayor or town
construction workers. Pretty much, yeah.
Pretty much you're a ditto. Yeah.
Ditto. Yeah. You know that one.
Like when Patrick Swayze said it in Ghost
when she said, I love you and he said ditto.
Yeah. I love that.
I love that pottery scene.
Speaking of video games though.
Speaking of
video games, though, a new Resident Evil came out.
Oh, I know.
Trust me.
And it sucks that we're in the middle of a move because I know Spencer is dying.
It's going to happen.
To play it with you.
Angela ordered T-shirts for us.
I'm actually not kidding.
What?
Yep.
What do you mean T-shirts?
So we're on a really cool group text.
It's a Resident Evil group text.
Me's Spencer and Angela, sorry.
Angela ordered us all Resident Evil t-shirts.
What did they have on?
Does it just say Resident Evil?
I can't remember.
I could like literally pull the picture.
Do you own it yet?
I don't own it yet.
She's ordered it.
She told us to Venmo her.
I'm not sure if we will.
Did she ask what we wanted it?
That's the funniest thing.
Ordering something for someone without telling them.
And can you venmo me for that?
You need to spot me for this.
It's possible that we're not going to Venmo her.
I don't think I would.
Okay.
Here it is.
It's so good.
Good. It literally says girl dinner on it.
Bro.
And it's just Leon Kennedy.
Look at it. Well, it's all the versions of him.
Nice.
Because you know we did the video on games.
Yeah.
Spencer had a PowerPoint and explained all of the lore of Resident Evil, which I was like,
this is epic.
I wish I knew.
Crazy.
So the iterations of him is all, it's like he becomes like a baddie, like later.
The funniest part about that is that I guarantee you,
Spencer will wear that shirt more than either of you.
No, he will.
Because girl dinner is fun, but it's like, I kind of reject the term.
Spencer wearing the funniest version.
Spencer wearing girl dinner is the greatest.
He's going to have that thing tucked in, denim jacket over it, with the boots on.
With his mug.
With his mug, full of kickstart.
Can I clear the air real quick about the mug situation?
So remember when we did guess who walked?
Yeah.
And I did impression of Spencer.
And you had a lean to him.
And everyone's like, what's wrong with you?
Why would you do that?
You monster.
I was leaning.
Because he's...
And I brought it up to Spencer and he agreed.
It's because he has a mug.
And it's, you were saying he's leaning because it's more of a choice.
He's leaning in...
Because he's kind of like...
The way he walks is he leans into a conversation.
That's why I walked with such an aggressive lean.
I see what you're saying.
I overdid it.
No, I think you nailed it.
But I did nail it like in here.
Oh.
Ooh.
Whoa.
Hold on.
What?
Keep going.
Can you keep?
Oh, damn it.
Just find it.
I want to do this one justice so much.
Can you do a little bit more than a couple steps?
Huh.
Hey.
I think I have it.
And it doesn't say Sadie.
Am I not killing this?
God, I see it.
It's the, I'm getting some vibes.
Or also this.
Your walks were very good in that video.
Yeah, Angela really enjoyed her.
You gave people a lot to think about it.
out. That video, that video was a thinker. That's what I was saying. If I'm going to do an
impression of you, I'm going to do it honestly from my point of view. You just, yeah, you go.
I don't think I did, I didn't do you. No, I don't think. No, I didn't do you.
I don't think so. I don't know how to see that. People pointed out that, um, a lot of your impressions
of people's walks, they're like looking up. And that's because from your perspective,
everyone is probably looking up.
Yeah, I didn't.
That's so good.
I didn't realize that.
Yeah.
Some of them, I think it's the case.
Like, I think you did an impression of Noah.
And Noah always looks up in general.
Noah is very much like that.
But you're taller than me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And that's one.
I got one.
But you didn't do.
No, Trevor wasn't in that.
I wouldn't know.
I feel like you've got a pretty like.
His is bouncy.
Bouncy and like limber and like.
It's really fun.
Yeah.
Look, for listeners and.
and viewers impersonate your friend's walks.
That's crazy.
I've never thought about how I walk.
I walk way too fast.
That is one thing is I have to consciously slow my self down.
I walk really fast.
It's because when I was young and I wasn't tall, my dad never slowed down.
Like my dad's tall.
And so as a kid, I was like, I had to book it to keep up with him.
Yeah.
And then I carried that and now I have long legs and I haven't, I haven't adjusted.
So I like that.
My family is fast walkers too.
Yeah.
My dad moves.
I don't know what it is.
about those Gen Xers or whatever.
They had places to be.
No, my mom too, she's like,
do we want to go get a coffee?
I'm like, yeah, but I don't even,
I turn for a one second.
Like there's a cloud of dust.
No, literally, like, it's like an image
flashes through my eyes and she is booking it.
It's crazy.
And she doesn't stop.
Sometimes I'm like, mom, there is an actual do not walk sign.
And she will not stop.
It's like she's programmed.
I think if she stops,
she's afraid it'll be done like it'll be over with
it's also not just walking like my dad
I'll be home and he'll be like hey you you want to
leave at like 530 to like go to dinner
I'm like yeah that's great and then he'll like text me at 520
he's like I'm in the car whenever you're ready
I'm like dude what do you mean
you're sitting in the car and he's probably
already been in there for like five minutes
like he's been sitting there for 15 minutes
oh yeah my dad
from the airport he's been there for two hours
yeah he has Duncan Donuts
his second Duncan Donuts coffee
and he's like yeah you know I parked
he parks in the same spot
And he explains it to me every time.
You know, I parked.
We got to take the elevator.
I'm like, I know where you parked, dad.
I know where you parked.
I know where you'll be.
You've been here.
He's like, I get up at 4 in the morning.
What is with older people who just wake up at 4 and that's it?
They wake up at 4.
They're always like,
they're always my dad's 15 minutes early to the movies without fail.
Like, we'll go see a movie.
And I'm like, dude, genuinely the previews are starting five minutes late.
Like AMC in the app has a thing that says your main.
movie is not going to start until 25 to 30 minutes after the time it says.
I'm like, what are we doing here? I got to sit in the chair for an hour before the movie starts.
I don't like the new previews that they have. They have like, they have like weird, like little
dumber previews before the actual previews. Yeah. I, I don't know. Tell me why. I don't know.
They just have like, it's, it's just AMC's own little things. I don't know. I went to go see Wuthering Heights
on my birthday and we were literally four minutes late, which was a crime, awful.
I hate being late for the movies.
We walked in in the middle of a scene that I was like, what?
Wait, you were late for the movie itself or the previews.
I was literally, I thought the, so we got there five minutes.
So they said the movie starts at, you know, one or whatever.
We got out 105, which was a crime.
Okay.
But there were no previews.
It was straight into the movie.
And you already missed a little bit.
You already missed a little bit of the movie.
I would leave.
I'd be so mad.
I can't do that.
If you know what the opening scene is,
I walked into, do you guys,
have you seen it?
No.
That's fine.
If you have seen it,
I walked into that opening scene
where they're above and you see that.
Well,
now I'm not going to see it.
Yeah.
Now I know everything.
Yeah.
No,
I would not be able to handle that.
I don't know why people hated that movie.
I freaking loved it.
Yeah.
There are things that I'm like,
oh, I wish,
but I loved it.
I heard a lot about that movie.
I loved it.
And everyone's like, it's not Weathering Heights.
I'm like, do you really want Wuthering Heights?
No.
Do you want that story?
Yeah.
But it is.
I haven't seen it, but I feel like it happens with every book adaptation.
It's not the book.
Nowadays, where everyone's really mad, but I'm like, what I did, because I would be pissed off about movies adapted from books.
And then I started being like, you know what?
It's a whole new thing.
I just treat it as like, this is a whole new story.
It's loosely based on this book I like.
But if I want the book, then I'm going to be disappointed every time.
Agreed.
But it's hard.
It's hard.
It's hard.
It's really, really into it.
Especially if you listen to the audio.
I remember listening to Girl and I was trying an audiobook.
And then I watched the movie and I was like, they're not even British.
What?
And Emily Blunt was the lead and she wasn't even, she was speaking English, like American.
Yeah.
And I was like, yeah, huh?
So I get the upset, but there's so much.
many iterations of Wuthering Heights.
You can literally see Tom Hardy meet his wife in real life in Wuthering Heights.
Like that's how they met.
Like Ray Fines in Wuthering Heights.
Like there's so many iterations.
Yeah.
And they're not.
It's the artist.
And Tom Hardy have both been into Wuthering Heights.
Yes.
I didn't know that.
Yes.
I didn't,
I don't have a passage, I guess.
I don't have Wuthering Heights ball knowledge like that, I guess.
Them all.
I've seen them all.
Whoa.
Literally.
I love the story is so it's like a Romeo and Juliet.
It's very tragic.
I think I tried to read Wuthering Heights a long time ago, and I got like 20 pages in.
I was like, no.
I read it in high school.
But I'll give it a shot again.
Yeah, I read it in high school.
This is a different, this is a similar iteration.
It's just basically like a love that like you literally can't breathe without them, but it's just this like.
I need to, uh, I'm going to get into some more classics soon.
Really?
I've been kind of behind on reading, but for the past couple of years, I've been reading a lot of like what's coming out this year, right?
What are you most excited about?
That I bought recently?
Let's see.
East of Eden.
I have been meaning to read that for forever.
People who've read it are like,
it's one of the best books of all time.
I bought Beloved by Tony Morrison,
which I've also heard is like,
that's one of the best.
And then Crime and Punishment is one of those like
classic classics.
I'm like, I got to read this at some point.
Did a movie.
Oh, there's been movies made up about almost all of those, I think.
But, yeah, just classics are, they're, you know, it's an undertaking.
It's not like as like, oh, I'm just going to have a good time and read this.
It's like, all right, there are intense themes here and a lot to think about.
And, you know, I end up rereading pages and a lot of rereading pages.
Yeah, it's a little bit more of a challenge as opposed to like a relaxing enjoyment thing.
Yeah.
So that's why I haven't read that many a long time.
I know my nonfiction grind in the reading.
And there's a lot of rereading pages where I'm like, I got to remember.
make sure I caught all that. There's a lot of words here. I do audiobooks for nonfiction because
with fiction, with audiobooks, I have a really hard time with like staying focused sometimes,
especially if I'm like doing something while I'm listening to it. And if I miss like a minute or two,
I'm like, the fuck just happened. Yeah. Yeah. And it's hard to like rewind it all the time.
So I do nonfiction for audio books. Because you can miss a little bit and it's okay.
For me, for me it really depends on the reader.
I need the I need like I enjoy reading so my voice it's not like Amanda reading it's like I change my voice according to the characters or whatever's going on sometimes the reader can be really distracting yeah to me but I love I listen to this this other one where there's three readers three different readers and they all have this like really intense Irish accent and I was so into it.
it really really into that but like yeah audio books it's all about the reader for me has to have
um yeah that makes sense to the book for me i get that i don't mind i do you ever do like an
audio book and then also have the physical book like a listen read along i've never done that
but i find it nice i think when there's times where a book i've like struggled with reading a book
whether for whatever reason like if i'm like i'm just like struggling to keep focus while i'm reading
this page being able to hear it and it's like uh i i watch everything with subtitles me too i watch
everything with subtitles because i'm like i just like to be able to make sure that i'm hearing and like
reading along so it's like with an audio book i'm like i'm hearing it and i'm reading it and it just
helps me stay focused wait i did actually do this i did it with um have you ever heard of covenant
of water it's like a very thick book he also wrote uh it's a very it's a very medical book which i
didn't realize, but it like spans through all these different stories in India.
And the book was amazing, but so much, so much.
So I did also tag team with audio.
And I found that that was like the best way to get through it.
But I don't often do that.
I know people, I know people who read like fantasy books who really want to get to it.
Yeah.
And they literally don't have enough time to move their hands.
So they'll listen to audio.
Yeah.
And they'll listen to it on like 1.5 or 2 to speed.
Yeah.
need to get to like what's happening.
I love fantasy and I can't do it with fantasy because if I'm like really locked on a book,
I read too fast for an audiobooks.
I'm like I'm flipping pages too fast and the voice.
Yeah.
I love an audio book and I've done fantasy books on audio like with an audio book, but there's
times where I'm like if I really am like into like if it's an intense part I'm like I just
want to go and sometimes they're just reading too slow.
Or I'm sorry, but sometimes the audio is like and then he took he's
hand and they're always like
it's like they're walking uphill
and they're talking and I'm like
they're performing it too much
it's like you gotta move
yeah to me I don't read fantasy
I don't have this voice in my head
when I'm reading he thrusts
his you know I'm not like reading
in a Lord of the Rings voice
I'm reading in my voice
especially with the type of book you're reading
yeah
did I say fantasy
to be clear
You started that sentence.
I'm like, he thrust.
My head was like, yeah, he thrust.
End of sentence.
No, God, when there's smut, I was saying this to Shane earlier in the morning.
I don't know why.
But when there's smut, there's so much.
The smut has to be earned.
Those are the type of books I love because there's so much more going on.
There's like so much tension and relationship and courts and politics.
So when the smut happens, you're just like.
Can I ask what your like least favorite, like, word?
or synonym or phrases for a penis.
Oh my God, I love this.
Is it like like, like, I want to detail about this.
I love member.
I think member is so funny.
Member gets used a lot.
I, uh, sorry, he asked you, but I was, okay.
Also, Shane reads smut.
I, well, I only read one recently.
I read this book called Icebreaker and.
Oh, what do they say?
Because that's more of a modern book.
I, I don't think, I'm trying to remember if she used like a specific word or it's just kind of like,
she just kind of would be like, he was huge, right?
Like that was kind of, but, but the, the verb that she used a lot was, uh, disintegrating.
Like, uh, like, she disintegrated.
Like, when she like, orgasm, like, disintegrated.
And I'm like, what the hell are you?
Okay.
But it gets brought up a lot.
I'm like, that's the word you're, you're using.
Okay.
That's crazy.
I hate that.
So I, I like, I have friends who read these with me.
So I talk about this a lot and like in a laughing manner.
Yeah.
So they use words like considerable length.
Yeah.
Which I'm not kidding.
I do actually like.
Like he thrust his considerable length.
Oh, wow.
No, no.
His considerable length is straining against his leathers.
Oh my God.
Dude, I got to start talking like that.
I'm going to go home and be like, man, my considerable length is just not doing good in these pants right now.
Yeah, exactly.
Like considerable length hurts.
So considerable length, it's not like he's huge.
It's like, what's a considerable length?
a length to the reader.
Yeah, it's subjective.
One that makes me laugh so hard that I kind of like, but in a way that I'm like, why do I like this?
Velvet wrapped steel.
Velvet wrapped.
Now, I don't know how I feel about it.
I'm literally split.
That's outstanding.
The words are so good.
So velvet wrapped steel.
I don't know how I feel, but I enjoy.
That's my favorite David Lynch movie.
They also use the word cock.
Yeah.
great word.
Cock is a classic.
They're not using penis.
They're never using penis.
No, you never are going to see penis.
Why?
They don't use penis in vagina.
He got his penis out.
His considerable length was straining or his belt.
I wrap my hands around his velvet wrapped steel.
Oh my, I grasp his velvet.
Jesus.
I like those.
Wow.
Velvet wrapped steel.
Yeah.
That's a crazy band.
I'm going to be thinking about that one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm going to be thinking about that one.
For women, it's, for women, there's.
some that I, that I'm like, uh, like what?
See, velvet rap steel does not sound good because that makes me think of like a velvet
couch and that material like, it makes me think.
No.
No.
That they're like, fay and they have really incredible soft skin over something really hard.
Yeah, for sure.
There we go.
I don't need to be embarrassed about this.
I'm not embarrassed about this.
This is great.
I brought it up.
You're reading.
I love talking about it.
But velvet wrap steel is like one of those where I read it.
And I'm like, what the hell?
And then after you're like, yeah, where is that?
What are we going to sheath this sword?
Yeah.
What's happening?
I seriously, me and my friends will get together and we are dying laughing.
Yeah.
About talking about talking about it.
But when we're reading it, we're of course, like, so into it.
Dude, we got to.
That's what I would say.
We should do that.
We should do a smosh mouth where we're like, hey, you're going to give us all a book to read,
and we're going to come back and we're going to talk about it.
That would be great.
book review.
I would literally...
It needs to be one that's absurd.
Like it needs to be...
Oh, yeah.
The craziest thing.
There's some smut that I just won't touch.
Like, I think there's like...
And hey, if you're into it, get it.
But there's some that's like, like milk, milk...
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Morning Glory milking farm.
Yeah, and it's this one...
I read that one.
I read that one.
I read last year and I talked about it on like five different podcasts.
That was the first smutty book I ever read.
But he's a...
He's a...
He's a...
He's a...
Minotaur.
He's a minotaur.
Well, it's a world where, like,
mythical creatures just live alongside humans, right?
I like that.
So he's, like, a businessman.
Yeah.
He's, like, wearing a suit and tie and stuff,
but he's a minotaur.
Okay.
The cover is what made me go,
I don't want to read this.
It's insane. It's ridiculous.
So I read that, and then recently I read Icebreaker,
which is far more grounded.
It's a college, it's a hockey player and a figure skater,
and one of the ice rinks gets,
sabotage, whatever, so they have to share an ice rink.
And they hate each other for what I...
For no clear reason they hate each other, and then they bone a lot.
A lot.
Wait, did they ever say bone in that?
I think they say boner.
She does say boner.
Dude, if I read boner, I'm just...
It goes between her perspective and his perspective and multiple times throughout that book.
He's like, I'm trying to hide my boner.
I hate that.
See, but imagine if he said, I'm trying to hide my considerable language.
Trevor.
My velvet wrapped seal.
Trevor,
that's a mon.
I don't actually,
I realize I don't like modern smut that much.
You like,
because they're saying like boner.
I want them to be in a tunic.
Yes.
I want them to be.
His velvet wrapped bonus.
I want their velvet wrapped boners to be over a,
under a tunic.
Yes.
Yes.
Like I get it.
I want like,
because it's fantasy.
My craziest not,
it wasn't like a smut book.
But when I was in like seventh grade,
I had to do like a book or,
report and I had to do like and I was like, hey dad or any good books you're reading because I was,
I got this.
But he recommends me this book and it's like a historical fiction and it was and it was all
really good and a very good book. But there was like two things in it where I read it and it was
you know, I was in seventh grade and there was this like very smutty section where it was just
like describing like and it was like part of it was like kind of revolutionary or like industrial
Revolution period and this guy was like a coal miner and then he like goes and like it gets out of
the coal mine and has sex with like his whoever in like a bathtub and it was the craziest thing and
I was reading it and I was like I was like does my dad remember what was in this book because I feel
like he wouldn't just give me this book to read if he remembered like these scenes in it probably not
and then I was like I'm like seventh grade okay but seventh grade but conservative Christian school
seventh grade yeah like I was reading that
No, I know he read it, but, and I was like, well, I'm too far gone now to, like, change books.
And then I did the book report on it.
And I was like, I had this, like, fear in the back of my head.
I was like, surely, like, the teacher isn't going to, like, go look at the book and then be like, he read a weird book.
I was, like, very scared of that.
But that was the first time I read anything.
I do actually relate to that really, like, my dad recommended true blood when I was younger.
Whoa.
And he was like, true blood is such an amazing show.
Like, you and your, like, your dad contains multitudes.
You need to. My dad has been a fascinating, amazing man.
And me and my younger sister, and we weren't that young, but we were watching True Blood.
And my mom walks in on this very specific scene where it's two vampires going at it.
And he snaps her head.
He's going from behind.
And he snaps her head to face him so that he could look at her.
And my mom goes, what are you guys watching?
And she wasn't judging because my mom also.
watches what she wants to watch, but she goes, and we're like, this is dad's favorite show.
He loves this.
And it didn't kill the vampire, right?
It's just like, he was doing her from behind and he wanted to see her face.
So, of course, he snapped her head back.
Yeah.
Because that's how you do that.
That's the natural.
But like.
Who's got time to flip over, you know?
He's got time.
My dad is just like, he just loves watching things like that.
And so he'll still to this day, he's like, you got to watch a show.
It's such a good show.
And I'm like, yeah.
you're gay.
Damn.
But I'm just like, you know what?
Let's, it's.
Yeah, whatever.
Whatever.
Let's normalize it.
Oh, yeah.
But I will say in these books, this is why I struggle with modern smut because I just like,
I don't want to read about a guy's boner.
Because boner just makes me feel like I'm in high school.
Yeah.
So I'm glad you're enjoying the book.
I mean, they're in college in this book.
Okay.
But I just struggled because there was really kind of no plot.
that was like that there needs to be a plot if the smut comes um the first 300 pages I'm like
uh oh you need you need it to a slow build full plot full tension three you have to read 300 pages
before you get to the smut one series I read four books to get to the smut whoa yeah see I didn't
know that I mean the smut is amazing of course but like I love the tension I like I can be
turned on just by like looks and glances.
Yeah. That's why modern smart isn't my favorite because I feel like they like,
just get right to it.
Get.
It happens like page 50 of Icebreaker.
Fuck that.
And I was kind of like, I was like, this is crazy.
Like what?
What?
Like, all right.
Come on.
Barely met the character.
I've hardly even know that these people are.
They already having sex on the ice.
Yeah.
It's like I need to know.
Yeah.
I need to know what their wants are.
Yeah.
They need a little world building.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
You need a lot.
What college are they at?
Do they have other choices?
It's a made-up college.
Did they not get accepted to their first choice?
It's a made-up college.
It's a made-up college.
I'm a student at college university.
It's truly not far off from that.
It was actually fascinating, though, because even though it's modern day, it takes
place in a college in California, it was a fantasy book, right?
Because it's a college hockey team of like a bunch of six-five jock dudes.
But they're all so respectful of women.
And like, even though they're like, they're like dushy, but multiple times throughout the book, it's like...
They're perfect.
Like, going through, like, textbook of, like, here's the most respectful way to handle this situation.
Tall respectful athlete.
Like, there's a part where, like, she's drunk and he's just like, no, you're drunk.
I'm not going to do anything, like, whatever.
And then, like, just throughout it, I'm like, oh, this is the dream world where, like, even when guys are being dushy, they're still being so respectful.
it was really interesting to read in that way
but yeah we
that's an amazing we would love that
I feel like that's how it should be but
what I love about the characters is like
the author isn't afraid to make these characters
flawed and then what how they deal with that
oh totally I'm like you can still have this
they still could have a plot because throughout the book she's just like
I fucking hate this guy and it's like why
he's perfect like he's only doing perfect
things she's like I'm so annoyed by him like
why like give us a good
There's not enough world building because there's nothing better than enemies to lovers for me.
Totally.
But it's like if the person doesn't like them, I want, I really need to know why.
It needs to be justified.
It needs to be justified.
Yeah.
And that's been my, of the only couple smutty books I've read, I've been like, there just needs to be more plot.
Like to, there needs be more tension, more struggle.
Yeah.
So that when it happens, it's like, hell yeah.
Yeah.
I think that's a reasonable request.
Reasonable request.
Well, anyways.
That's our views on smut.
And Velvet Wrap Steel.
Yeah, Velvet Wrap Steel.
Should we, you know, check in with some comments?
Oh, yeah.
We have a little segment you want to do today where we read some comments.
We mainly pulled from one of the more recent episodes.
A few weeks back, it was you, Angela and Chance.
Actually, no, sorry.
It was, I'm, I forgot.
It's okay.
A couple weeks ago,
Angela and Chance and Olivia.
played you and I and Spencer.
Yes.
And Selena found a bunch of comments from that episode that were very funny.
The comments on it were just incredible.
They're so.
And I read a lot of our smosh-mouth comments.
Yeah.
And they're gold.
They are really fun.
I pulled up some of my favorites from recent episodes.
Price Pilled commented.
They basically made Amanda the battered wife to two broke back mountain men who can't
stop wanting each other.
This is the one I sent to Selena because I was like, wow.
and yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, because
Chance has this whole,
I mean, Chance wasn't even there.
It was, he literally became.
He transforms.
A version of me.
Yeah.
A version of me.
Um, no, he killed it.
But he has this whole thing where he's telling a story and they're just throwing
around my baby.
And it is this, they're having like this whole love affair.
And he's just like, how in Boston?
Like, yeah.
So good.
I saw some comments being like, oh, I, you know, they could have dropped the act like halfway through.
and we could have just gotten them.
It's like, I think we actually said that to them.
I think we're like, yeah, feel free to, like, break character at a certain point.
They, they forget who they are.
They committed.
Why would they ever drop?
I can't drop an act if I'm in a wig.
Like, I don't want to.
Chance is someone else.
When we, I think when we, like, cut for a minute or so, he was like, he's just in character.
At DJDB music said, like, the halfway mark, Amanda recording what is already
being recorded never change.
Yeah, I also sent that one.
You were filming it.
And I was like, what does he mean?
Oh, right.
Because you were filming the episode while we were recording the episode.
Nice.
Hey, you know, posterity.
It was like, look at them.
You and Angela have, Angela especially, has such an instinct for filming things.
She does.
And I'm like, amazed by it because I'm so the opposite.
I do not think to pull out my phone and record stuff or take photos.
I know.
She'll be in the middle of like,
if you're ever having like dinner or lunch with Angela,
she'll just be kind of in the middle of it.
She'll just be like,
ha ha.
Yes.
And they put her phone away.
And you're like,
you just take a photo?
It's crazy.
She does do that a lot.
It's such an instinct.
At GWO pit out said,
my favorite part of chance playing female characters
is that the mustache is always present.
I forget that he has a mustache in those moments.
Same.
You truly forget.
Hannah won.
one glee said Amanda is the Sophia Vergara of Smosh.
That's a, that's high praise.
I would say so.
I did not.
That is high praise.
That's incredible.
Wow.
Yeah.
Sophia Vergara in modern family or just her?
Just her in general.
What's her husband's name in modern family?
Oh, I forget.
Jay.
Jay!
Jay!
She is so funny.
I'm honestly so honored.
Yeah, there you go.
I mean, speaking of True Blood, that was her ex-husband.
The guy who played the main wolf.
Oh.
Whatever his name was.
I don't know.
I never watched True Blood.
Don't tell you, Dad.
What?
True Blood is one of the funniest shows ever.
It's so funny.
It's a hilarious show.
It's so funny.
At the O.
Siren O of O Night.
Okay.
There's zeros.
What even is this?
I love that when Spencer said,
what is Smosh even about in the Chosen?
competition. People quote that all the time now, and it's very true. I don't know. I couldn't tell you. People ask me, like, my family literally is like, what is smooosh? I'm like, it's okay. We're going to figure us out. I don't know. I have not had like a real answer. Honestly, since we started doing smoshmouth and Reddit stories, it's nice to be like, yeah, we kind of do a couple podcasts. I can talk about it. I just kind of say that. I'm like, sum it up some people can understand. But I'm like, trying to explain board A. F without just being like, I mean, I guess the truth is, I play board games.
We play Una and hang out with my friends.
It's so funny because it's like, yeah, I'll say I like play board games and hang out with my friends.
And I'm like, but it's not really about the board games.
It's like I don't know if anybody cares about the board games really.
Truly.
We play Moose Master for kids.
And we get heated?
Yeah.
On Courtney's new obsession episode, there was a comment where someone said, gay Joker be like, why so querious?
And someone replied to that saying they call me the woker, why so querious?
querious. And then someone in quotation
said the woker.
Dude, I did a woker bit.
We've been doing wokeer bits. I did a woker bit
on try not to laugh at one point.
I don't know how it went over. I don't know if that video
is out yet. Oh, maybe it's not out. Yeah, it might not be out. Maybe that got cut
because it was too woke. It could have been. I think it was pretty
funny, but I, you know, I'll save it. I guess if in a few try not to laugh,
I... Save it. Like, I don't know. I could tell you the joke here, but it doesn't
feel right because I'm not like wearing... You're not wearing it. You got to be wearing the
woker outfit.
What is this
common enough to do with that episode?
It's just people having fun.
So in this episode also, Courtney,
I love everything
she's posting from fan art.
Courtney does express that she wishes that she was
tiny and food was big. Yeah.
And that she could like sit in a pickle jar
or like lay on garlic bread.
She wanted to like a jelly donut
to like be inside the jelly donut
with just her head sticking out of like the whole of the jelly.
I remember that from a video.
She said like swimming in like salsa, and I was like, that would hurt really bad.
I wouldn't like that, but I enjoyed.
My velvet wrap steel would not be okay.
Yeah, we would have to figure out how to get your considerable length to be clean.
I don't know what I'm saying.
Wow, all right.
Wow, okay.
Holy shit.
How is that comment?
I don't know.
Sometimes people just having a good time in there.
Yeah, I love it.
And I encourage that.
You don't have to comment about the video.
You can comment whatever you want.
want. That's true. I do love reading the comments that are just like people saying hi.
To truly just like, what's up? I'm here hanging out. And then in the we need to talk about
these subredits episode. Oh yes. At kill K L L Y C. Someone said Shane watching heated rivalry for
the hockey is like watching challengers for the tennis, which I also did. And the tennis was good.
That explains a lot to me. How was challengers? The tennis was really a really good at tennis.
That's like watching Marty Supreme for the ping pong.
Yeah.
What?
I haven't seen it.
Is there...
Okay.
I'll watch it.
I haven't seen it either.
I haven't seen it either.
Who knows, maybe by the time this has come out, I'm waiting for it to come to, like, a video on demand.
Yeah, me too.
In the episode where we did talk about heated rivalry,
everyone wants us to talk about this.
At Rinston said, Trevor is going to be devastated when he finds out they talked about pirates without him.
we did talk about pirates for a little bit.
We did, and we mentioned you.
Because the crew wanted us to talk about things
and someone wanted us to talk about the golden age of pirates.
We talked about black sales.
We talked about black sales.
And how black sales was all of those pirates were gay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Pirates were...
I think here's the thing, and I could go on and on about pirates, so I won't.
But it's like pirates were really bad people.
And I feel like I have to preface that every time I talk about how much I love pirates,
they did really awful things.
However, there were a lot of ways in which they were incredibly progressive as well.
And a lot of pirates were gay.
Like they were just, and they were very open about that, and there was no judgment.
You're out at sea.
What are you going to do?
Exactly.
Yeah.
Get your velvet-wrapped steel out.
Oh, my God.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I'm trying to see Charles Vane's velvet-wrap steel.
You sure?
Days at Sea?
Shiver my considerable timbers, you know what I mean?
Shiver my considerable.
Okay, that was very much.
Honestly, should we come up with smut?
We should try to see who could.
We should have a competition
where we can come up with the best terms.
Because it has to be like connected to the theme of the book
because Velvet Rapsediel I think is pretty much directed about like
Faye.
Yeah.
Because they say Faye skin is like really soft.
We could come back.
We can circle back on this.
This might be for a whole other episode.
This might be like because if we give ourselves time to like write these out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Smut terms competition would go so hard.
Oh, that would be.
It would literally go so hard.
It would go so hard.
It would go so hard.
It would go so hard.
Wow.
In the trying to speak other languages episode at DiGosuelo, they say, I'm from Venezuela, and I discovered Smosh many years ago.
Back then, I didn't understand much English. I even remember there was a channel with dubbed versions.
I liked it more in English, even though I didn't understand nothing.
So this feels like a full circle moment. Many years have passed, and now I live in the USA, and a big part of my learning came from watching those videos in English.
It's so sweet.
I've seen a couple people say they use Smosh to learn.
That's awesome.
And that's why their first word is bitch.
Yeah.
Shut up.
I have a few, let's see, that I took screenshots of.
Oh.
I'm going to make a burner account and start leaving comments and try and get in the video that way.
So, first of all, I ended up on rare insults.
There's a subreddit called Rare Insults where people comment just insults that are like new, like ones that you never thought of.
Oh, fun.
Okay.
Someone posted one of my old TikToks, like from three or four years ago.
It's me, clean shaven, whatever.
And just being a white t-shirt, close up.
And someone commented saying he looks kind of like a llama in the best way possible.
Can I see the picture?
Yeah, it's just, it's there.
Like, I don't know.
Oh, you do.
Look at your sweet little face.
Okay.
It's because you have like a long face.
I do have a long face there.
Why the long face?
I could see a llama with that haircut, too.
You do not look like a llama.
Okay.
You look so sweet, like a llama who speaks.
Yeah, it's not like a, it's sort of an insult.
It's more of just a statement.
It's more of a compliment to llamas everywhere.
Yeah, that they look like me.
I kind of agree with you.
Lomas are cute.
Yeah.
Then, let's see.
I have a comment here.
I don't know which episodes these are from.
We can probably suss it out.
at Liz
2182
I didn't realize
how much
structure
Shane brought
to Smoshmouth
oh that's
the episode
with you
Angela and Chance
when I was gone
that was the
top comment
it had 12,000
likes
Hey hey
hey
Hey
there was a
Hey
Hey
Hey
you imagine
me trying to
bring
structure
out of that
episode
I didn't bring
the candies
I didn't bring
any that
shit
it was
impossible
and you know
what
I had a
good time
The other
top comment
on that was giving you guys candy was a choice.
It was a huge mistake. Hey, here we have a audio medium. Let's give you guys suckers.
Jesus Christ. You guys brought the pot of candy?
Angela brought the pot of candy. And when Angela brings something, you can't say no because it's done.
You're halfway through the episode and you go, I should have said no to this. But it's done.
And I truly do, I do feel bad about that episode because I was like, oh my God, we're a nightmare.
Like for listeners, what a nightmare.
Mm-hmm.
How dare you?
I did feel like I was in acid that whole episode though.
It's a very funny episode, though.
The church.
It's really great.
Out about the charge.
Out of the church.
You guys are talking about like intense shit too.
And we were talking it in a way like.
It's like, we're all laughing, but I'm like, wait, chances talk about being outed by the church, which is horribly traumatic.
Yeah.
But we're all laughing.
Jesus.
You deal with really traumatic stuff.
Yes.
It is a tough thing to be, not a tough thing, but like we are the types, all of us at Smosh
are the types that handle the worst news in our own personal lives with jokes.
But then we got to try to pull that back when it comes to other things.
Yes.
Then it comes across horrible.
It's like, no, no, that's my way of acknowledging that this is the worst possible thing.
I mean, that is truly, we like.
We, like, really let loose on that episode, and we were just kind of exploring some dark, dark stuff.
And it was kind of like giving each other space to be like, oh, this is how we're handling it while watching on candy, which was a huge mistake.
Yeah.
And I will take, I will say sorry for that.
But structure, how?
In that episode, how?
Yeah, it's fine.
I think it's sometimes good that we don't.
You were gone and it was just like...
Yeah, man.
We let loose.
Hell yeah.
Okay, this comes from our predictions episode
from earlier this year.
And it's... Someone clocked it.
Someone clocked me on this one.
They said, I feel like Shane's predictions are either
Smosh will post at least one video this year
or humankind will discover time travel.
There is no in between.
Dude, okay, I made the mistake of saying we're going to discover a new fish.
And the amount of DMs and messages across the
that I get about new fish being discovered.
They're like, you're an idiot.
I knew that, like, they're discovering new fish, like,
all the time, but, like, not at this rate.
It's kind of alarming how many fish they're discovering.
I see, I...
We got to slow down.
Now, what I was saying, too, is I'm like,
I want, like, a brand new, like, real brand new fish.
Not a new classification.
Yeah.
Not like a, and not a boring fish.
It's got to be like, holy shit.
We've never seen this guy.
Wow.
Judgey.
Look at this fucker.
Something crazy.
Like, they went, like, we've gone.
You know, they say however much of the ocean hasn't been explored.
They went to that part and they found something completely new.
And I'm getting that people are like, no, they're discovering new fish and they're showing me photos.
And I'm like, yeah, that's a new, I've never seen that fish.
But I need to be, I need this fish to upstage punch.
Yeah.
I need punch to become old news.
They're like, no, this fish, he's the news now.
Hey, buddy, call me when your fish is cooler.
Yeah.
Yeah, wow.
Stop bringing me these bum-ass fish.
Okay.
I don't care.
Hard.
Another comment from another one of the videos.
Oh, this is from the episode where you came back.
It was me, Damien, and you.
This comment made me laugh so hard.
I remember seeing it back in the day.
At Ruzoku said,
I can't believe they're going to execute Damien backstage
right after this podcast.
Oh, my God.
Because it was true.
It was like, you're in my seat.
All right.
And now we have to kill you.
And I was like, get out of my seat.
Get out of here.
I played it so hard.
Last comment I have.
Okay.
And this, because I remember a few episodes ago, we were talking about rats.
Remember?
Somehow rats got brought up.
I did tell a story about Sam.
We didn't know that you despise rats.
I do not like them.
Wow.
Maybe it's from being from the East Coast and, you know, going to Boston where, like, you go in an alleyway and you're like,
oh here are a thousand rats dancing like here are a thousand rats and they purposely want to get on baby dancing rats
dancing rats sounds amazing like I don't know if I would be cool with a thousand rats but if all of them were dancing I'd be like that's good they're dancing on your foot but I was I was trying to convince you that pet rats
pet rats are like a thing and people have pet rats and they're actually very sweet they're super cute I also before I get to this
comment I was going to say I'm reading a book I'm reading a nonfiction book called the rise and rain of the mammals and it's all just about
how mammals are a thing.
It's by the same guy he wrote
the rise and fall of the dinosaurs,
which is an awesome book.
Wow, that does sound fun.
And now he's writing this book.
And I didn't realize that rodents and apes
are like kind of on the same,
like we're closer to,
we're more similar than other branches like carnivores.
Oh.
Interesting.
Well, you think about,
I was thinking about it and I was like,
oh, right, rodents like rats and stuff
can grab things with their hands.
Yeah.
I was like, whoa, we are.
We are not as far off as I thought we were.
Compared to like things with hooves and things like with paws.
Bovine.
We're actually, we are much like rats.
They are our brethren.
No.
I actually, I feel throw up.
Look, there's a lot of times in my life where I'll be doing something and I'm like, I could see a rat doing this.
Yeah.
I'm like eating an in and out burger over the trash can.
At the end of the in and out burger is dripping that spread and I'm like over the trash can.
It's rat behavior.
Friggin splinter over here.
Master Splinter
Master Splinter over here
Ashley Mono said
I've had four pet rats in my lifetime
and they are genuinely the sweetest little dudes
like tiny dogs
my very first rat fluffer nutter
like to go on walks
had a little harness and leash
I would walk him outside the apartments
I was living in at the time
he also loved hanging out on your shoulder
while you did literally anything
or taking a nap
in sweatshirt hoods and pockets
I'm sorry that's adorable
That is so sweet
Do you have a little rat on your shoulder?
Maybe I've watched too much
medieval shit, but don't they like burrow
inside your stomach and then eat your organs?
You're referencing Game of Thrones, yeah.
You're referencing like torture methods.
Ferrel rats. That's like feral
cats and dogs are a different thing than
Do you fuck with Stuart Little?
Well, he's a mouse.
You didn't have a problem with mice, right?
Ratatooie was hard for me to watch.
Whoa!
Whoa! That's awesome.
Nobody's ever said that sentence
before. I threw up five times
in the theater.
Is it? Do I want to write?
Making my food.
Ratatoui was really hard for me to watch.
You know what soup?
They make anything could drop in there.
He washes his hands.
I don't care.
That's the whole thing.
He's a cook.
Anyone can cook.
For me to watch.
It felt like a scary movie.
Damn.
Trevor was great having you today.
Dead serious.
Thanks Trevor for coming.
You said that to a show.
chef. I love Ratatouille so much.
Is it your, it's got to be your, you're a chef, it's got to be your favorite.
It's not, it's not my favorite. It's up there. I rewatch it recently. It's an incredible movie.
It is outstanding. It's a fun concept, great movie thing. Great, great themes.
How do you feel about Fifell? Fifell goes west? Yeah. I really liked it because of the music.
Okay, but how do you feel about Fifle? He's cute. He's got a big hat on. Okay, so mice are fine.
He's got like a cute, like he's, he's cute. Oh, because he's got clothes on. But he's not a rat.
This is really messed up.
Fifele's not a rat.
No,
Fifele's a mouse.
He's a cute little mouse with big ass ears.
But if Remy from Rattitoui,
if he put on an outfit,
would you feel a little better?
No.
No.
He could put on cute ass jeans.
Cute ass jeans.
Like, he could put on apple bottom jeans,
and I'd be like absolutely zero.
His considerable girth.
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
And you're like, what's straining against him?
We have a dog.
A little rat.
Oh, hey.
Hey, you said it.
Not me.
Little rat penis.
He puts on leathers and you're just like, Jesus.
Has the phrase a little rat penis ever been in one of your books?
No, not yet.
It'll happen.
It's like how you describe the villain in the smut book.
It's like his little rat penis.
No, the villains all have considerable lengths.
Everybody's got huge penises.
Yeah.
And hey, considerable length is what's a considerable length to you?
It's whatever. It's you as the reader get to fill that in.
Yeah.
Thank God.
They do all that and then they'll be like and his cock.
And you're like, oh, okay, well, I know what that is.
Now we do.
Anyways.
Trevor, this has.
been a blast.
God, I love you guys. It's going to be back.
We love you, too. It's going to be back.
I'm excited for us to be in the new studio.
I know. It'll be a few weeks from now, I think.
I don't know.
It'll happen when it happens.
It's going to be fun. The chairs, like, move, too.
Yeah, it's actually a rotating. It's like the carousel of progress at
Didney.
It's just constantly rotating.
And then Courtney with URL comes in for like 10 minutes.
And not how it works.
Yeah, yeah. It's going to be every show every time.
It's going to be wild.
Thank you all for listening.
and watching and we'll see you later yeah we read your comments yeah we read your
comments okay bye bye
