Hello, welcome to Smosh Mouth. I'm Shane.
We got a very special episode for you today. I am joined by Spencer and Selena.
Hi.
A bit of an improvised episode today.
Yeah, just a little bit.
We realized everyone's out. Everyone's out of the office for different reasons.
We were going to do an episode with Damien that didn't work out for scheduling reasons. So we'll save that for another time.
Yeah.
But,
uh,
we figured,
Hey,
you guys just hop in.
We like you guys.
We're the only ones left in the office.
We don't know who's filming this.
Yeah.
And we're both Filipino.
It's great to have Selena here and no one else.
no,
honestly though, I appreciate it. I'm just not, I'm gone and no one else. No, honestly, though, I appreciate it.
I'm just not.
I'm gone in the next shot.
No, but I appreciated that you knew that calamansi.
I don't know.
No, never mind.
That might be a spoiler.
Oh, for the O games.
Yeah.
For the O games.
No, I did see.
No, calamansi juice for when Shane guesses fridges.
Oh, yes.
Yes.
Yeah.
He knew that that was Filipino lime.
So you could be Filipino for today.
Filipino for the day.
No, I love...
Go on.
I was going to say,
just like learning about...
I mean, the funny thing as a kid
was like my uncle married a Chinese woman.
And as a kid, I was like,
well, that means I'm Chinese now. now oh and so i was fully just like you know that means i am chinese
and i would tell people my mom had to pull me aside and be like spencer pat news you're not
chinese uh and yeah that's my that's my origin story oh that's awesome that explains i think it explains a lot yeah um how many months
or years did you go around saying that i don't think it was that i think they kind of nipped
in the bud that's good that's quickly that's good how old were you 15 yeah um no i was probably i
was probably under 10 okay you know i just thought it was i thought it was like kind of that it's
like well you know if i have a Chinese extended family,
then surely I'm Chinese.
Yeah.
I think I understand that because there's a side of my family
that is very Italian, extremely Italian side of my family,
but I am not Italian at all.
But as a little kid, I was like, well, there's got to be some Italian.
Like, I got to be part Italian because I have a bunch of Italian relatives.
It's like, you don't understand the whole...
Sometimes you feel the Italian spirit
like take over you.
Yeah.
Well, have you guys done 23andMe
or anything like that?
I actually haven't.
Oh, okay.
What if you find out that...
Spencer?
Actually, 75% Chinese.
Actually, I have never done it,
but my parents both have.
And I know that my percentage can be different because it's like, 75% Chinese. Actually, I have never done it, but my parents both have.
And I know that my percentage can be different because it's like siblings can have different percentages.
Really?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
I haven't looked into it much.
Like if you are, like there's a joke I saw someone on TikTok was saying like, oh, they're Italian and German.
And like the sister got all the like Italian genes and the brother got all the German genes. Like,
so it's just like,
she's technically more Italian than him.
Uh,
that's just,
I think now I'm not an expert,
but that's from my understanding.
Now my parents did 23 and me and they are like 99.9%,
whatever Western European,
like as white as it gets.
But my mom did point out, she's like, there is a, um, like very small percentage of, uh,
I think it might be like East Asian.
Like my mom was like, there is a very, she's like, I don't know where this like 0.1% or
one, what it's like some very small.
So I did see a tweet recently.
It was like,
I don't think 23 and me is real.
What they do is,
uh,
you know,
you pay the money and they send it off to a guy and he Googles you.
And then he,
and then he guesses and then he guesses.
And then occasionally he'll throw in a 1% of like some random country just to
give you something to talk about.
Yeah.
I wish.
Well, of like some random country just to give you just to give you something to talk about yeah i wish well so i did 23andme and it told me everything that i already knew so it wasn't anything new it was like are you 100% filipino i it's close well it's like filipino that there's
like a little spanish in there a little chinese in there um there's part like from the like the
indian continent when it was i'm assuming when it was before it had
been part of asia but like that's like you know yeah from like so was india considered some
continent at one point uh subcontinent yeah indian subcontinent did not know that
i'm listening to a book right now that was um it's it's a british book and uh and he talks and
he talks about um he's like oh and then i met an asian man and then later it's a British book and, uh, and he talks and he talks about, um, he's like,
oh,
and then I met an Asian man.
And then later it's kind of revealed that the guy is like Indian.
And I'm like,
oh,
I guess that's like,
you know,
I think in maybe an,
at least in America when that's not,
maybe not commonly thought of.
It's not the first country you think of,
I guess when you're like,
oh,
like this person is like from Asia.
Is it,
uh,
is it South Asian?
Is that?
Yeah.
Yeah. That's the terminology. Yeah, South Asian, yeah.
That's the terminology.
It's still Asian, but, you know.
It still counts.
It still counts.
You still count.
Yeah, thank you.
No, I would be curious about a 23andMe.
I think it's, I mean, I've thought about it.
All the, you know, it's like, oh, it's like,
you're a little Scottish, you're a little British.
It's like, okay, that's boring as hell.
Well, doesn't it also give you like your, like, oh, you might have this issue or something.
And you have bone cancer.
And you're weak.
Yeah, it's like, not only are you Scottish, you have no bones.
I did that, the ancestry and health thing.
And it tells you like, oh, you're more prone to this kind of disease.
But also there's like silly things like, oh, you're more prone to this kind of disease, but also there's like silly things
like, oh, you think cilantro tastes like soap
or like you prefer-
Did they clock you?
No.
You're like, no, I love that shit.
Maybe you love soap.
They said that I like salty foods over sweet,
but I don't think that's true.
I'd be like, shut the fuck up.
You don't know me.
That's impossible to nail because I feel like genetics are too,
I don't know them that well, but I feel like it's too complicated.
See, I actually do know genetics that well.
But also, I feel like that takes away the nurture out of it entirely.
Of just saying like, yeah, you were born this way and this is what you like.
It's like, man, an event can change how you view everything.
Yeah, I ate a really salty stick one time.
And everything changed.
That was it.
Something I want to talk about right off the bat here.
This happened a few weeks ago.
I was going to wait until we had Amanda here,
but we got to talk about this.
Yeah.
Because this is huge news.
I've already talked about it with Amanda.
She's well aware.
But at the start of this year, we
had a bunch of predictions for for what was
going to happen this year i predict we predicted a bunch of things most of them have not come true
you know i predicted that i would shake markiplier's hand i still haven't there's still time
i i really think we can lock that one in like i i'm gonna there's been some moments where i thought
it was gonna happen and then i was like oh he's not here if we can get markiplier i know your ass
would be fucking geeking out.
Realistically, me too.
Really?
Because I don't think I've properly met him.
Okay.
So this is... Yeah.
Okay, let's make it happen.
Realistically, if we're being honest,
I think an opportunity we could have
is when Iron Lung is coming out.
That was what I was thinking as well.
And then we'd be like,
hey, come on, promote the movie.
So we'll see.
But that might not be until next year or something.
Because I'm also a big fan of that game developer who made Iron Lung.
So I don't know if we could be like, hey, we're fans of that game developer.
We're fans of you.
Just got to shake his hand.
That's all that's got to happen.
I want to shake your hand.
But anyways, so we have a bunch of predictions.
One of them that I threw out there very much as a joke.
Most of them were a joke. One of them was that threw out there very much as a joke. Most of them were a joke.
One of them was that Smosh would end up on Good Morning
America. I kept that very broad.
I was like, Smosh. Any one of the
cast members, anyone ending up
on Good Morning America would count. And I was like,
this isn't going to happen. How are we going to end up on Good Morning
America? Guys.
Ladies and gentlemen. Smosh Mouth
was on Good Morning
America. Yeah. Specifically Smosh Mouth. Smosh Mouth ended was on Good Morning America. Yeah.
Specifically Smosh Mouth.
Smosh Mouth ended up on Good Morning America, and I'm going to tell you how it happened.
It's all thanks to one of our viewers.
His name is Daniel Sharkey.
He posted a Reddit post a few weeks ago telling us how he got Smosh Mouth on Good Morning America.
And it was a very simple process.
Daniel Sharkey lives in Florida, and he was out.
Yeah, he's a Florida man.
Florida mentioned.
And this is a very Florida man story.
He was doing yard work out front in the front yard of his house,
and he got struck by lightning.
Got struck by lightning pretty good.
There's footage.
Really got him.
It really got him. There's footage of him unconscious on the ground
with people trying to help him.
So he goes to the hospital naturally for several days.
And then Good Morning America reaches out to him
to do an interview from his hospital bed.
Yeah, because he survived.
He survived.
We should be clear here.
One of our dead viewers. Yeah, he willed his body to Smosh Mouth. We should be clear here. One of our dead
viewers. He willed his
body to Smosh Mouth. Yeah, roll him out.
So
they reach out to him. They're like, can we do an
interview? He's like, sure. And they
tell him, no logos, no brands, no
nothing in your shot. He's like, okay.
Got it. But he
has a hospital
gown on. He's got a heart monitor patch right here.
He writes Smosh Mouth right there on the heart monitor patch.
And so when they're interviewing him, you have to really kind of zoom in and pay attention.
You can see Smosh Mouth right there on his chest for several moments.
So thanks to him yeah which i'm also like you nearly died yeah you got struck by lightning you're getting interviewed by good
morning america and you thought to shout us out your first you're a real one it's crazy that like
you know lightning strikes i guess i mean does good morning morning america just interview whoever
gets hit by lightning no i think they were just looking for a good story.
Yeah.
I mean, it's a great.
How often does it happen?
I don't know.
I'm asking you, bro.
I'm curious about the numbers.
Tell us.
If you've been struck by lightning, tell us.
Can anyone in the room Google how many people in the U.S. get struck by lightning every year?
Two to three hundred.
Per what?
Per year.
Holy shit.
I mean,
you think about it.
So,
so no,
it's a,
that's a,
that's a over one in a million chance.
Yeah.
200 to 300 people per year in America.
Yeah.
So your,
your chances are extremely slim to get struck by lightning.
And also in Los Angeles,
you're not.
Oh,
not Los Angeles.
No,
there's no Florida.
I mean,
it's just, it's so...
Oh, yeah. Well, when you're in Florida, you're
gonna die, right?
I was in Florida for the first two years of my life, and I
died. I forget about that.
Daniel Sharkey died, probably,
for a brief moment. For a second. For a second, or at least.

So I wonder if more people
in Florida are killed
by alligators or sharks.
I don't know if alligators...
Maybe I'm crazy for saying this.
I don't think...
Do alligators kill a lot of people?
I thought crocodiles were the more dangerous.
Yeah, crocodiles are the more dangerous,
but alligators will attack.
I know people, if they're walking dogs
or if they're older,
they will encounter alligators,
but it's super...
For the amount of alligators to humans,
the accident rate...
And humans are in water.
And the accident rate is so small.
Same with sharks.
But sharks, we had a string of shark attacks.
I want to say like three bites in one day.
Yes, I heard about that.
I heard about that.
Like losing an arm and a leg and stuff.
It's freak attacks like that.
But sharks are kind of, yeah, sharks are never like, I don't know.
They're tasters.
Sharks operate like robots.
To the point where I've heard, watching Shark Week,
a guy was like, I think what a lot of shark attacks might be
is just sharks truly just running into someone
and their mouth is open.
And so they, like, you just.
Kind of Five Nights at Freddy's.
Really bad luck to get attacked by a shark.
No, it really, and I mean, it was my biggest fear as a kid.
Absolutely my biggest fear was.
Over everything else?
Over everything else.
Wow.
Everything else.
You know what, actually,
I recalled this recently.
Do you know what one of my,
like, as far as natural,
the world goes,
fears,
was twisters.
See.
I saw the movie Twister,
because this was in the 90s. There was a movie Twister, and I was scared to death of twisters. I saw the movie Twister because this was in the 90s.
There was a movie Twister and I
was scared to death of twisters
and we lived in Arizona.
There was...
The world's driest twister.
There was no
twister happening in Phoenix,
Arizona, but I was just
certain.
I was like, I'm going to die from a Twister.
We were, the other night at dinner, me and, this is again a Gen Con, we were talking about
kind of like the theme park moments that scarred us.
Like, you know, or like things in theme parks that, like, you know, my sister rode the Jaws
ride and it scarred her for life.
Yeah.
And for me, the thing I remember being really affected by was they had the Twister ride at Universal.
It was like an experience.
I remember that.
That I remember.
I don't remember this.
But before, you go into a room,
and they just showed you the first scene of Twister.
Yeah.
And that first scene of Twister where her dad dies
really affected me.
Oh, yeah.
It's a messed up scene.
And I kind of couldn't believe it.
I was like, you know like in disney movies like you
know it's like the implied death of the parent but this was like you know her dad is like sucked
away in front of her and that really really scared me yeah no it's a it's really crazy yeah um it's
also crazy i think i've talked about this on camera before about i didn't know and i'm pretty
sure this is true that tornadoes really only happen in the United States.
It's like semi...
They can happen elsewhere, but they happen so much here.
The amount that it happens is a lot here.
Not to be too Joe Rogany, but I think I heard that too.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think I heard about that once.
So that's fact now.
They're terrifying.
It's not the only place, but it's like
the main, the most. I think we have the most.
Exactly. Like it's Tornado Alley
has the perfect conditions.
I'm googling. I think of their
power and their magnitude.
They happen here. So when Twisters
came out in the 90s, I was still living in the
Philippines. I thought you meant like when
the idea of a Twister, when
Tornadoes came out in the 90s.
Yeah, when the first twister of 1997 appeared.
No, I've only ever seen it on like TV or like film or like Wizard of Oz, like had a tornado or whatever.
And I was like, what?
Like I had no concept of what that even meant or like how that felt.
So like, yeah, it's still a concept.
I've never seen one so here's the
here's the thing tornadoes occur most frequently in north america particularly in central and
southeastern regions um the united states and canada have by far the most tornadoes of any
countries in the world but they also occur in south africa some of uh europe okay some of
australia new zealand bangladesh Eastern India, Japan, and the Philippines.
Whoa.
And South America, like Uruguay and Argentina.
Okay, so they happen all over the place.
But I wonder how powerful they are in other places.
Well, how are they measured again?
It's not categories.
It's a T.
Yeah, I think F scale I think is right. So it's like an F1.
Again, F2 I think is the scale.
But I think it goes like, I think it is right. So it's like an F1. Oh. Again, F2, I think, is the scale. But I think it goes, like, I think it starts at, like, a higher number.
And then, like, the closer it gets, like, an F1 is, like, the big one.
They're terrifying.
They're really scary.
I saw one once.
Whoa.
I was in Colorado.
What'd you do?
I was at the Denver airport.
And I was leaving the Denver airport in a shuttle.
It's scary because it's all flat around there.
Not at the airport.
And it starts to, like, I wasn't in the plane. I was in a car. Probably better to be in a plane. It's scary because it's all flat around there. What if the airport? And it starts to, like, I wasn't in the plane.
I was in a car.
Probably better to be in a plane.
It's bigger.
But it started to form.
And I saw it form.
And it was, like, kind of a skinny one.
But it was, like, crazy to see it come down from the clouds.
I was like, yeah, skinny legend right there.
No.
But it was wild looking.
It was really big.
But it then disappeared after, disappeared after a few minutes.
Okay, that's good.
I would see water spouts, which are tornadoes on the ocean growing up,
but I never saw a proper one.
I still do want to, maybe by the time this comes out,
I'll have seen twisters.
But the more I think about it, the more I'm like,
they're so cool, frankly.
You think you'd be a tornado hunter?
No, absolutely not.
No, they're scary as fuck.
Oh, yeah.
No, I want to get away.
I remember hearing, because I've never heard one either, but I know what they would teach you in Florida is like, well, it sounds like a train's coming.
And I'm like, that's scary as fuck.
Yeah, they're terrifying.
The big, gigantic ones scary as fuck. Yeah, they're terrible. But the big gigantic ones are nightmare fuel.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I was so scared of them as a kid.
And then I don't know when I got over it.
I think when I realized when someone was like, they literally don't happen here, man.
They literally can't.
You're going to die from anything else.
Yeah.
Sharks.
Not Daniel Sharkey.
Not Daniel Sharkey.
No, he survives anything. He survived being struck by
lightning and he shouted us out
on Good Morning America. So thank you.
You made that prediction come true.
So cool.
And frankly, kind of funny.
He's definitely watching
this right now is what's crazy.
We're laughing at you.
No, we're not.
I've often thought of what would be the coolest injuries to sustain.
Getting struck by lightning, definitely one.
And then getting shot.
And then getting attacked by a bear.
What?
Why?
What?
I'm thinking those are the coolest to have endured.
Oh, and you're like, okay.
No, I don't want to get fucking shot.
It probably hurts so much. No, and you're like, no, I don't want to get fucking shot. It probably hurts so much.
No, all those sound horrible.
But I just mean,
imagine having been shot.
Well, with lightning strikes,
what happens to some people
is they have those crystallized veins.
Is that what that is?
Like the scarring?
Yeah, have you seen that
where there are veins?
I haven't seen it.
It's like a permanent tattoo.
I'm curious if that happened to him,
but it can be crazy looking.
Another thing going on right now that we mainly wanted to talk about,
just because it's a little bit topical, because we recorded this a week ago,
as of it airing, is we learned we can't say the name.
And I truly don't believe it, but pop off.
We were told we cannot say the name, that we will be demonetized,
that we'll be copyright struck for saying the name.
The O Games.
Yeah. The five-ringed. Yeah, the five the five ringed games the games that happen every four years do we not do like a
beperty thing we call it like the bolimpics i don't know i don't know how close we can get
to saying it but joe olympics olympics uh anyways they've been going on i've been watching them
yeah i'm a big fan that's all i've been doing them. I'm a big fan. That's all I've
been doing. See, I'm so uneducated. Where do you
even watch them? Oh, you just
watch them anywhere. I have the YouTube
TV app.
It's typically an
NBC thing.
You can also watch it online. There's often just websites
where you can just watch it for free.
OGames.com.
Yeah. And then you
just get served clips a lot.
I haven't seen the clips.
A lot of times on TikTok, I just get served it afterwards,
which is fine.
There's been a lot of legends this year.
You know, you have Pummel Horse Guy.
You have all the people in the shooting competition.
Pummel Harris.
Pummel Harris.
Is that anything?
God damn.
God damn.
Oh, my god.
Everyone in the shooting competition,
absolute legend. Penis guy.
Penis guy.
No, that's the funniest thing ever.
For those who don't know, I feel like you all
probably do, there was a guy who was doing pole vault
and he pretty much cleared
the bar except for his massive
dong
got, like, kind of hit it.
Not kind of.
It grabbed on.
Would you not think to tape?
I don't know.
If my penis is that big,
it's going to be a hindrance
and I'm going to tape it down.
You got to tuck it in.
The wind resistance alone.
I wonder if they are wearing underwear.
It didn't look like it.
We should ask.
I haven't heard the audio of the commentators.
Apparently it's very funny.
I haven't heard it.
To not acknowledge the penis.
Oh, he hit the bar
with, yes, it appears
with his body.
It's Unsuck Johnson.. His unsuck Johnson.
His unsuck Johnson.
That's one of my favorite clips.
It's two announcers, and they're talking,
and they're on the baseball.
Sorry, I'm doing another thing where I tell a really bad story.
But it's at a baseball game, and there are two announcers in the thing,
and the camera's going around.
It's like the kiss cam or something like that,
and it's this couple kisses, and the, and the camera's going around. It's like the kiss cam or something like that, and it's this couple kisses,
and then the guy grabs the girl's boob.
What?
And then they cut away, and they just had nothing to say.
And they just like, they're like.
It's like clearly, it's like a joke grab.
I don't know if you've ever, this is going to sound really bad.
You've been with your partner for a long time
and sometimes you just like,
you kind of jokingly grab their boob.
Just like a little honk.
Yeah, it's like a very juvenile honking.
And that's the reaction of the,
they clearly can't acknowledge it.
They can't be like, blah, blah, blah.
And so every time they try and talk again,
they're just like cracking up. And that's like, blah, blah, blah. And so every time they try and talk again, they're just cracking up.
And that's like, people trying not to laugh is...
Oh, it's always the best.
We should make a show about that.
I think...
Yeah, we should do that.
So the kiss cam thing,
I think it happened at the O Games.
And I could be mistaken.
It could be somewhere else.
But I think someone's parents were like...
They switched to the camera
that shows their relatives and their parents.
And someone's parents just full-on start French kissing, because you see tongue,
and then the commentators are just like,
oh, very passionate about their son's win.
Well, dude, win in Paris.
Yeah.
City of love.
I love, at any sporting event, I'm glued to the Jumbotron.
I love seeing people see themselves on the Jumbotron.
It brings me joy in a very sincere way.
Going to the Kings game, it's just seeing kids.
When you see kids realize they're on the game,
it's like that is a, not formative maybe,
but certainly it feels huge to them.
No, and the group dynamics and psychology that can happen
where like have you seen the one where the kid's like,
I think he's holding an ice cream cone and he lifts it up
and everyone starts cheering.
And he kind of realizes the power he has and he lowers it
and he raises it back up and everyone screams again.
That was literally me on the Smosh Mouth Live
whenever I'd say boob and people would start cheering.
I was like this is what real power feels like. That was literally me on the Smosh Mouth Live. Whenever I'd say boob and people would start cheering, I was like, this is what real power feels like.
That was exhilarating.
There's an old video that is so good.
I believe it's a football game in Europe.
And this guy's asleep.
He's far in the lower stands.
And he's sitting there.
Or maybe it's a baseball game.
I forget.
But he's sitting there.
A European baseball game?
No, it's either European football or it's a baseball game, I forget, but he's sitting there. A European baseball game? No, it's
either European football or it's like American
baseball. I forget what kind, but it's a game where it's like those
types of stands, you know, and
kind of like a game where you can kind of
casually watch at times. I think it was baseball.
But this guy's asleep, and his
head's forward.
And I forget which
way, but he's sitting there, he's asleep,
and he's kind of leaning, and everyone's like, oh.
Oh!
And finally his head falls back naturally, and everyone cheers so loud.
He wakes up, and he starts cheering, too, because he doesn't know what's going on.
That's, like, there is a, you know, transparent, I'm not a big sports person.
What? You know, I think, like, there is a toxic element to that group.
Like, you know, not to be, like, the rioting and stuff, like, after sports games.
Yeah.
But there is something that will happen, like, inside sports games where it's, like, everyone kind of gets on the same page for something positive like that.
Where it's, like, we're all in on this joke and it's like that is a really powerful thing i think no it's very it's very um intoxicating the like the the camaraderie
that you can feel sometimes because like at bronco games and every sports okay no every sports
i don't want to hear it man every sports team has their like traditions and their like things
for the broncos it's whenever the
opposing team throws a pass and it goes incomplete the entire stadium knows after a second that
everyone goes in complete like and they all yell it and it's just like a thing that we do which
gotta be what's gotta suck if you're the quarterback of the other team and you just
every time you miss a throw you just hear the entire stadium yell that at you.
But that's what we do.
Yeah, for the amount of money, I think I could take it.
Oh, yeah, for sure.
For sure.
You pay me an NFL player salary, I will do anything, man.
I can't disagree.
Right.
We're not going to test it here.
No.
No.
But I've been keeping up with the O Games.
And we've been doing pretty good.
Who's winning?
Well, America has the most medals.
But we're losing in gold.
As of right now, I think China is dominating in golds.
But they've got really good athletes.
Yeah.
So a lot will have happened in a week
so we're recording this last week so by the time that you see this it could very well the philippines
have taken it all listen the philippines are doing really well we have two gold medals right
yeah i was gonna say what was the the sport uh was it it's his name first of all his name is
carlos yulo he's i've been seeing a lot of love for him.
Yeah.
He's a male gymnast.
He's the first person, first man from the Philippines to have won gold.
And he's won two.
Of any?
Wow.
We only have three medals as a country, and they're all gold.
Wow.
That's crazy.
The first medal was.
It's all or nothing.
They offer you all silver, and you're like, we don't want it.
No.
We're not going to take it.
We're not taking it.
We've got to keep this thing going.
We won our first gold last in Tokyo for women's weightlifting.
Wow.
And then.
I think I remember that.
Yeah.
I remember that.
I've seen that clip.
Because you came in lifting weights, and you're like.
Yeah, I was like, I'm going to do it.
No, but Carlos Yula won in both floor and vault for men's gymnastics.
Cool.
Yeah.
Damn.
That's so. So he has two. He's got two of the. Yeah, he has two gold medals right Cool. Damn. That's so cool. So he has two
he's got two of the... Yeah, he has two gold
medals right now. And is he done for the...
I actually don't know. I haven't looked at the
schedule. I saw the tweet from Simone Biles
and she was like,
hey, you guys gotta stop asking us
what's next after interviews.
I was like, that is the
realest shit. Yeah. Cause like
it's like no, this is it. Like this is what we've been working for. This is like literally... Iest shit cause like it's like no this is it
this is what we've been working for
I'm sorry man it's the O games
what do you want me to say
the O games guys
the O games
but then the other
tweets that are like
you know me
feeling 30 like with my whole life
like ahead of me or whatever.
The announcer would be like,
here comes Johnny Smith.
22 years old.
He's the oldest person in the game.
His life is over.
I don't know how often
you see people in their 30s.
Not often.
In the O Games.
If you guys were to compete, what sport would you compete in?
French.
Okay, you have...
Kissing.
What'd you say?
Okay, for real.
In summer and in winter options...
And life and death.
You get paid a million dollars if you can just qualify.
And you get, like...
Say you get to go back to being
10 10 years old oh you get to actually train up there are a lot obviously obviously now i'm
too old but old bro you get to go back and be like okay if i spend all my time
training which one do i think my body could get into yeah Yeah. I mean, the shooting,
I mean,
the shooting's having
the moment right now.
And that feels,
well, I was thinking,
I was like,
how hard can it be?
And then, you know,
you see the size of the target.
The size of the target,
it's like this big.
It's super tiny
and it's 25 meters away.
It's actually insane.
The Americans at home,
how far is that?
75 feet-ishh which is insane
maybe I don't know if that's right
I remember in
middle of high school me and my friend
our unit of measurement for money was like
video games so it'd be like
100 bucks like bro you could buy two
360 games with that that's cool
yeah that's a good way to do it
and I mean we still kind of joke about it sometimes.
It's like, oh, how much was dinner?
It's like, oh, it was about three Xbox games.
Nice.
I thought y'all would be fucking with that.
No, that's really sick, man.
Okay.
Genuinely.
I don't talk about this.
When I was a little kid, I loved gymnastics.
I really loved gymnastics.
I could see you being a gymnast.
I was really into it.
I think, I don't know.
I mean.
You would be a different person.
Like right now, I mean like, I think right now you're more of like a weights guy, I would imagine.
Yeah.
No, I loved.
You're lifting.
When I was young, like I had upper body strength naturally.
So I loved like swinging on bars and stuff like that.
That was absolutely my
favorite as a kid too my sisters my sisters got to do gymnastics classes and i was always jealous
yeah i don't know what's weird i think with gymnastics i'd be i'd still be fine stature
wise but i'm on the taller end whoa because they're they're like they're very they're very
the shorter you are, the
more like, the more upper
body strength that you can hold up your body weight.
So it makes sense. But I think
I'd be fine at 5'7". But I think
it would be technically like
they don't get that tall. Would you do
pommel horse? What would you do?
There's like pommel horse.
I do suck at all these things. I can't
do any of these things. But I'm thinking if I could go back to being a kid and I could train up for it,
which do I think I would be capable of?
There's like Parallel Bars, The Vault.
I think the like –
The Rings.
The Rings.
I feel like I could like have fun doing those.
But this is extreme.
That's a tough event to get into.
Those I think would be –
This is also the O Games.
I'm not going to do any of them.
That would be most of what I think I would've been interested in
as a kid, because watching a lot of Jackie Chan
and stuff like that, that was,
kind of felt the most in that wheelhouse of like,
oh, you're kind of jumping around,
you're doing flips and shit.
So yeah, that was my desire.
So also gymnastics.
Probably also gymnastics.
But I mean, seeing how cool they look while shooting.
Oh, the other thing we didn't talk about is that woman who had all the Hello Kitty stickers
and stuff like that on her.
I didn't see this.
She had all the Sanrio characters and stuff like that.
No, I think on her rifle.
I think she had a rifle, too.
But what I meant, I meant to say to Aaron Kushner,
cause that's what we had them do for the gun we used in a sniper chest was
like,
Hey,
let's make it look like a little less like intense on camera.
We wanted to make it look silly.
And so Aaron was like,
Oh,
like,
yeah,
let me,
let me like kind of like put stickers on it and stuff like that.
And that's, that's exactly what is on the rifle.
That's smart.
It's really great.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, I think the one that gets the most jokes is shuffleboard.
Or what is it?
Curling.
Curling.
Curling in the winter, where they're just kind of scraping the floor and stuff.
But I watch it, and I'm like, while it's not athletically as crazy as some of the others,
it looks so complicated.
Yeah.
I'm sure I would suck forever.
But that's something that you can do in your old age, though.
Like, you don't need to be, like, in tip-top physical shape.
That's true.
Do you know what, like, the oldest game?
I mean, some of those shooters are, like, middle-aged.
Yeah. Isn't he, like, what's his name, Yusuf?
Like 53?
Yeah, so it makes sense.
So I wonder if he's like the oldest
Olympian.
I wonder who would make the list of oldest
Olympians. I think currently
right now from what I've read, and
I don't know, but the
guy in Dressage, which is like the horse dancing thing.
Oh, the equestrian.
Yeah, exactly.
I think I have an aunt who does dressage and things like that.
Oh, you have an aunt who's a billionaire.
No, she just lives in Colorado.
Honestly.
Oh, yeah.
I think he's like 59.
Have you seen the debates about how the horses should get the medals?
Yeah, I think so.
That the people are technically a coach?
Yeah.
So the horses should get the medals.
No, I fully agree with this.
What are they going to do with it, bro?
I don't know, but they're the ones who are doing the work.
Yeah.
What would you do with a medal?
Eat it.
Okay.
Melt it down.
That's what they do when they're posing.
They're all biting the medals. They're taking the first bite. I would melt it down. I would consume it. That's what they do when they're posing. They're all biting the medals.
They're taking the first bite.
I honestly don't know.
That isn't always a funny thing where it's like,
what do you do with the actors and stuff?
It's like, what do you do with their Oscars and stuff like that?
That's always a funny thing that I go,
it's up in my house.
I've heard that with a lot of former athletes from the O Games
that once they compete, whether they win or lose or something,
afterwards it's really tough.
Yeah.
Because they train their entire lives
for this event,
for like this singular thing.
Now, a lot of them,
there's a lot of competitions,
but this is the peak.
Oh, it's the O Games.
And also as an athlete,
yeah, for a lot of them,
they're done by the time they're 30.
Yeah, put them down.
It's also what's crazy.

I see the same thing with the NFL, where for certain positions like running back and stuff,
by the time you're 27, it's like, yeah, you're kind of done. mean at least like i mean i don't know if it's for across every position in the nfl but
like at least they're getting paid like a shitload i don't know if a lot of them are i think for the
big big ones that we know about for a lot of them i don't think they make a lot of money depends on
the country too yeah well i'm talking american nfl yeah but well with nfl nfl sorry with nfl but even then it
depends on how big you are like they're all making a lot of money but they're not all millionaires
and and also you make a lot of money and then once you're in like if you get injured or something
then you're just out and you're done and it's like okay what do you do um it was funny watching
like challenger sorry i'm in a mission to bring up Challengers as often as I can.
But yeah, dude, do it.
You know how they're like they're they're like I think they're 30.
And, you know, like the.
Yeah.
Like, I mean, the famous line is the day it says.
But yeah.
It's like, yeah, you're done.
That's your toast.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's it's friggin weird.
It was so trippy to me watching football because I watched it when I was I started watching
it when I was around like 20. Right. So I'm watching this and i'm like okay most of the players
are older than me and then it takes like four years yeah where i'm watching it i'm like oh now
all the players are my age or a little bit younger and then after a couple years i was like i'm now
older than all the players in the nfl it's so trippy and then you have like tom brady who yeah
i was gonna say Who was 43,
which was such an insane thing.
Tim Tebow was kind of older
when he played, right?
No, he was super young.
I thought I could connect
on one thing in my life.
Nope, man.
He retired young.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you guys know that
the next O Games
are going to be here?
I know.
What's it going to be like?
Kiana will not let me forget that.
I have not talked about Kiana this whole time. I know. I don't want's it going to be like? Kiana will not let me forget that. I have not talked about Kiana this whole time.
I know.
I don't want to dox her too much.
We were going to throw her on this episode, too,
but she's out of town as well?
Look, we can cut this.
She's like, I have been crying like three times a day
watching the O Games.
Yeah.
And I was like, you're crazy.
And then I've been seeing a lot of
people it's like no that's like it that's like kind of the the common experience yeah yeah because
it's like the one it's like finally like we can all get together and watch the best of the best
like basically perform like what they've been working towards and especially when you can
approach in like a healthy way to be like, you know, I mean, nationalism is such a slippery slope, but like, you know, being proud of your country.
Yeah.
Like it is in a positive way where it's like, oh, like, you know, we they represent our country in a positive way.
But you watch it and you also like it's not just for your own country.
It's like you're watching other countries, especially like when a small country wins.
And then like lifting each other up.
Like, you know, I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about it.
But I mean, like Kiana sent me the one tweet or maybe i sent it to her but it was it was
after the beyonce thing and it was like the like my hate of america leaving my body as soon as like
beyonce goes up there it's like let's go athletes um i saw a tiktok where a girl was crying talking
about it she's just like i'm crying because no matter what someone wins it's just like, I'm crying because no matter what, someone wins. It's just like, yeah, it's kind of true.
Someone's going to achieve their dreams
and get to see it happen.
There's no debate on it.
It's not like with the Oscars
and stuff. It's like, okay, it's all
objective. It's just like, oh, this is
an opinion. Not
subjective. Sorry, I used the wrong one.
It's just opinion-based, whereas
with this, it's like, no, you ran the fastest.
You just won, and you won.
I did see a little discourse on, I don't know which run it was.
Oh, the men's 100-meter track.
But just how the difference between gold and not placing was like...
It's like a millisecond but like the fact that that is that that's been another fascinating thing i remember reading this
article when i was younger it's like will we ever hit a i remember it was a sub four or sub three
minute mile and they were kind of going through the evolution of running um you know and how it's
a a measurable uh sport where it's like, you know,
humans are like literally getting faster or like, you know, the top runners are getting faster.
The training regimens are getting more fine-tuned, the diets, like the amount of money
that gets pumped into these athletes is crazy.
And it's just like, at what point, you know, do we peak? Like, can we never pass that?
And that's just like, at what point, you know, do we peak? Like, can we never pass that? And that's a fascinating topic.
The reality is, is that some athletes come along who are just like kind of, it's just a genetic lottery.
So people are describing Michael Phelps.
I remember, yeah.
And he produces 50% of the lactic acid that most people produce.
So his muscles just actually don't get tired.
I did see people because the the other
thing about that was i was seeing people kind of you know and again want to disclose that you got
you know i'm not well versed on on most of this but you know so a lot of this is like oh it's
all it's on twitter but um you know because i remember that was kind of the discussion around
lance armstrong was um when people were like well you know his heart's bigger and uh and you know
he and his body produces less lactic acid.
So it's like the genetic lottery,
and then it was revealed that he was taking steroids.
And people were like, is that kind of the case with Michael Phelps?
I'm not saying he did that,
but it's like some of them will kind of disguise these genetic outliers
as like, oh, you know, disguise these, like, genetic, like, outliers as, like, oh, you know,
they were taking, you know, supplements.
You know, it's like, what does qualify for supplements versus, you know, what's allowed?
Like, Keanu was telling me about those shoes that, like, every world record sprinting record
was broken in.
And they kind of had to outlaw those because, like, the way your foot would land in them,
it would kind of, like, propel you forward almost almost it was like a shoe that was like cheating it is kind of a weird thing because that's that's the same that we saw with those shooters where they
have like the glasses and stuff and it's like should you be allowed to have special glasses
that let you like yeah i don't know it's it's where is the line that's that is a tough thing
um it makes me think of that old Tosh joke where he's like,
No one's talking about Daniel Tosh in 30 years, bro.
Yeah, man.
I'm giving my age.
But that old stand-up joke about how he's just like,
baseball steroids should be legal.
I want to see it.
Let me just see it full-blown, like the baseball hitting the moon.
Did you ever play that game series?
It wasn't NFL Blitz, but it was like the baseball kind of equivalent.
And yeah, that was just like the vibe of it.
Like it was just like the players would like be on fire.
It's shooting.
Yeah, it's it's definitely a problem.
I mean, it's I've said it before, but it's crazy how much steroids are kind of making a comeback right now.
And I'm not happy about it.
I think it's bad.
But I end up on weightlifting TikTok a lot.
And a lot of young dudes are really pumping a lot of steroids.
It's just, I mean, it's like, you know, again, like it's a slippery slope.
But it's kind of like a miracle drug.
Like for like sickness and stuff like that.
And it's crazy that it works
well that's a different kind yeah but I mean it's like
it's all the same concept where it's just like you know
it kind of like augments every and it's such
a scary yeah
I think for someone with body dysmorphia
it's just such a dangerous thing oh
no it is it is insane
it is bad for you oh like it
is it is just to make it clear
but like I think a lot of people that doesn't get talked about a lot because it just isn't.
But there was this one bodybuilder, like, breaking down, like, what it does to your body.
And it's, like, it's scary.
Like, especially if you're having it, just doing it yourself in a locker room somewhere.
It's, like, you can overdo it and get really messed up really fast but i it's as
someone who has gone through body dysmorphia to varying degrees and like likes working out i i
then see people who do it and i'm just like oh yeah and you're just gonna be twice the size yeah
like within months it's actually insane whereas for me any gains i've had has taken like 10 years
it takes forever but that's but you're healthier and you feel better in the long run.
It's like the discourse with the Marvel bodies and stuff like that.
It's like a lot of them are turning their body around in under a year.
Oh, yeah.
It's insane.
And it's all natural.
It's just like Marvel puts you on this diet.
People are like, well, that's like almost physically impossible without like a...
Yeah.
I don't believe it's natural.
And if it is, it's like,
it's the amount of money and resources
that are getting thrown at them is not also not natural.
Like it's damaging no matter what.
It's shocking to see when people show imagery
from like even 15 years ago.
It's like, oh my God.
Like when I saw Hugh Jackman in the first X jackman in the first picture of him shirtless oh my god is that what he looked like
because as a kid i remember it's like no like and i remember like not like but he's not what's
crazy he's not normal like he's he's yeah but i remember that's like uh you know like two of my
favorite movies like like indiana jones indiana jones movies and like army of darkness you know
watching behind the scenes stuff, like Harrison Ford,
he's like exercising constantly, like for Indiana Jones,
like behind the scenes.
And Bruce Campbell is like, yeah,
I got in like the best shape of my life for Army of Darkness.
And then you see them in the movies compared to like Marvel movies now.
And it's like, unfortunately, like to the modern eye,
these are just like kind of normal bodies.
Like, and it's like, yeah, it's like like and it's like yeah it's like and it's i cannot
you cannot discount how much effort it takes to even look like and it's it sucks because it's also
we're getting to a point where it's ridiculous even when it's not like with the superheroes i'm
like okay they want to try to make them look like they look in the comics which is not normal at all
no it's like Alex Ross.
It's ridiculous.
But they're even doing it, like what was so cool about Indiana Jones is like, yeah, he's a archaeology professor from the 1930s.
Yeah.
That is, he, that's impressive that he would look like Harrison Ford.
Like that's already unrealistic.
But it's like, okay, that is a normal body type of the 1930s.
Whereas I watched, and I liked this movie, but I watched that Department of Ungentlemanly Warfare movie with Henry Cavill.
And what's his name from the Reacher guy.
But there are these World War II soldiers and spies.
And they're all just way too big.
I'm like, you don't look like dudes in the 40s.
And then they show the images of the real soldiers
because it's all based on a true story.
And they're like yeah that's a
real guy from the 40s.
You cast a guy who's twice his
weight.
And that's like the other
that was kind of and it's kind of ruined
other things for me because I will watch things like, you know, I've watched a little of The Boys, and it's, you know, I've kind of gotten used to it, but you look at their bodies in The Boys, and I'm sure they're exercising their asses off, but they're still not on that Marvel diet.
Like, you look at Homelander.
I think that's the joke they've done with Homelander, because that actor won't work out.
He was just like, I'm not going to. And so
they're like, well, Homelander, maybe he's skinny.
Like, yeah, the reveal is that it's actually
a padded suit. It's just like it's
interesting, like the the budget
in the, you know, whatever resources they give
the Marvel actors to make them look like I'm
like the big one was like
Kumail or Chris
Pratt. Honestly, though, it's like Kamal
Nanjani, though, was a crazy change too.
But like the you know
seeing their bodies change and then you see the boys
and it's like you know even like the deep
he kind of just looks like
obviously in better shape than 99% of people
but it's like you look at him compared to like a Thor
or something like that. It shows you how
unbelievably ridiculous the standards have gotten.
It's made me sad because I feel like we're reverting
back to the early 2000s lately.
Yeah, a little bit. In fashion,
but also unfortunately
with body standards.
It's funny, the
intersection of body positivity
and the most unrealistic bodies
you've ever seen throughout history
in the form of these
supplemented,
augmented.
Yeah.
Sad.
So the moral of the story is that it takes years
to get these bodies realistically.
The moral of the story is that they're not real.
No, they're not real.
They're not real at all.
Except for the Reacher guy.
I think he's real.
I believe him.
Well, he also went to my high school that's that's my he's well with the case with all of them there there is like a natural like they do have to you
do have to work hard but but i also think there's some added and i mean what we love to talk about
we've talked about it so many times we may even talk about on the podcast he actually we already did. What? The Arnold Schwarzenegger, the documentary Pumping Iron.
Oh, yeah.
Sorry.
I know we literally already talked about this on the podcast,
but it's just like you look at him and you look at all the other guys.
It's like, oh, he's just like genetically, no matter what he did,
he was always going to look like a, I can say it in this context, an Olympian.
Oh, like a god. Like a Greek Olympian, yeah. Yeah. That's fair, an Olympian. Oh. Like a god.
Like a Greek Olympian, yeah.
Yeah.
That's fair.
That's true.
Yeah.
So eat that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Outsmarted the system.
Hmm.
Well, okay.
When the O Games come here.
The what?
The what?
I'm sorry.
The O Games.
Aren't they doing something?
Jesus.
When they come here,
are we going to have to move away for a little bit?
Isn't it going to be so unbelievable?
It's so spread out.
It's going to be spread out.
I'm making this up. She's like, oh yeah, some are like Barstow.
I don't know if it's that far.
Some are like really far.
The surfing competition
this year is in Tahiti,
which is 10 000 miles
away yeah that's well we can have surf they will have surfing the surfing stuff will be here really
where what are you talking what are you talking do you live here surfers though i know i know people
do it i'm just saying it's not like where i'd want to do it they may not have it in los angeles
they might have it up the coast or That might be where it's upstate.
Yeah. But they'll have it around.
Big Sur or something. Yeah, I guess
maybe Big Sur. There's definitely good...
Even the big El Segundo or
Long Beach. You look at those
waves, it's like... There are good
surfing spots. It also depends on the time of year.
Yeah. They're not going to pull the
fisher guys off the pier and they're still going to be yelling at
the surfers. Then maybe they will. They could potentially put that in Hawaii or something. I not going to pull the Fisher guys off the pier and they're still going to be yelling at the, they might, then maybe, then maybe they will.
They could potentially put that in Hawaii.
I was going to say,
take their,
take the rest of Hawaii.
I don't know in August how good the waves are.
Yeah.
Southern California.
That makes sense.
Um,
but do you guys know that they're adding,
um,
gridiron?
Yeah.
Flag football.
Yeah.
And,
and flag,
yeah.
Flag football.
It's a dorky shit.
What is that?
Flag football. Yeah yeah dorks
can I take a stand on that
yeah are they adding magic
the gathering
what do they call quidditch now
quidditch no no they named it
something else now to separate themselves
from the black mold
from moldemort
from moldemort has anyone said that yes you'll
have been saying that that's really good that she's gotten i don't even want to talk about
that shit i know man hit a new low which is amazing uh yeah she's been sharing her thoughts
on the o games someone should share her her throwing her out a window okay man someone should share the velocity of of being
to propel that a window with jk rowling huh i'll work on it
the o games is an oh no i'm being thrown out a window
oh my god that's the game that's the o games I like to see Who participated
Oh my god
Okay what were we talking about
A second ago
Yeah we're in LA and like games being added
Yes it's gonna be crazy
I mean it's gonna be kind of a once in a lifetime thing
It is are you guys gonna try to watch
Fuck no
It'd be cool to watch
It's gonna be hot
It's gonna to be hot.
Okay.
It's going to be hot outside.
It's true.
It's going to be.
There are indoor sports.
Those are the nerdy ones.
No, I'm just kidding.
I don't know.
I mean, like, what is the.
Yo games are for nerds. Yeah.
Let's see if I'm around in four years.
Oh, my God.
A lot can happen.
Smosh is gone in four years.
Dude, let's make our four-year predictions.
Oh, no.
That's scary.
That is scary.
That's too far.
Did you ever have parents that were like, what's your five-year plan?
Dude, I hate when people ask me that.
I'm like, I can barely think.
I'm like, I'm literally trying to get through the day.
Yeah.
I can barely think to next week.
That's, I think, what's stopping.
I think after these past four years, I think it's fair to be like, I can never predict the next four years. No, literally.
Yes.
Because like,
literally. Because like, these last five years
it's like, yeah, we're all lucky to just kind of get
by. Yeah.
No, I would never have thought I'd be where I was
five years ago.
If you had to make a guess five years ago,
would you have guessed? I have no idea.
Oh.
But certainly not this.
Certainly not here on Smoshcast talking about the O games.
I definitely, yeah.
I mean, I've talked about this before.
I think five years ago I would have probably thought there's no way Smosh would be around in five years.
I definitely never thought.
But better than ever.
Yeah.
No, I would absolutely.
And I mean, not because of this, but I never thought I would be on camera.
Oh.
It wasn't really my goal goal until like you know the more i was editing the more i was like i think i could do this yeah i think i would be like the only part i would be
jealous of was um like the video games and be like you know like oh they get to expect then it was
like smash games it's like all they're doing is like playing video games i'm like like i don't
even want to be on camera i just want to like play video games uh but then you know kind of like especially with the the cast we have now
it's like it's just so fun to be yeah hanging out with like you know interacting on camera like it's
just really cool it's really cool you should all take an o games trip together in three years i'd
be super proud for that oh games reunion yeah Reunion? Yeah. I'd be...
Yeah, I mean,
I need to look up, like,
where and, like,
because, I mean...
Is that stuff already decided?
I don't know.
It's been decided.
Has it?
I mean, I'm sure it has,
but I don't know anything.
It's crazy how many years
in advance they started
probably prepping.
They've decided all the way
through at least
choosing which cities
through, like, 2032
or something.
Like, all of the...
Optimistic, bro.
They have that stuff planned.
No, I remember
like, because didn't they have to cancel the
Tokyo ones? They postponed it.
Yeah, they postponed it. But are they
going to do them again? They did it.
Oh, they did it? That's crazy, bro.
I was asleep.
I don't remember where I was in 2021.
You know what's insane to me with people who don't watch any sports whatsoever is that.
Present.
What?
I said present.
Is, you know, there's like seasons to sports.
So it kind of adds something to certain parts of the year.
Whereas if you don't watch sports, it's just like the year just kind of goes.
Well, so I don't really watch much.
So I actually, so this is,
I look at the leaves on the trees.
Because they will change.
God damn it.
No, so I actually don't watch that much sports.
But for whatever reason, I love the O games.
And so it's like every-
I think it is the greats. Oh, yeah. The O games and the World I love the O Games. I think it is the great.
Oh, yeah.
The O Games and the World Cup.
The O Games.
The World Cup I also get obsessed with.
Liquid football.
Yeah.
Yes, pour it down my fucking throat.
I love liquid football.
Do we have to make up a name for that, too?
No.
Football?
No.
World Cup.
World Cup, I doubt it. The IC? No. World Cup? World Cup.
World Cup, I doubt it.
The ICUPs.
The Cup of the World.
Yeah.
The Cup of the World.
No, but it will be interesting to see what kind of infrastructural changes we make to
LA.
Yeah.
Because I know Tokyo, they really made a bunch of changes.
It's super expensive.
It's a debate on whether
there's actual
return on that.
Is this worth it?
Well, it's too late now. We're going to find
out. We're doing it.
We agreed.
I would like to know
where they have them. Hollywood?
That's crazy. Just on the Walk of Fame.
You sprint down.
There is the marathon aspect.
Oh, true.
There are those marathon runs, which will be on streets throughout.
So that stuff happens.
Like, because they just did that stuff,
and they were going through.
I wonder if they do stuff like, yeah.
Which, by the way, okay, actually,
the competition I would do, because I did see this, is there is the speed walking i did i did see and that shit is so funny and here's the thing watching it i know it's probably really hard
like actually the process of keeping both feet and they're all cheating
no no you watch the slow-mo footage you watch the slow-mo footage and the whole point is that
one foot has to always be on the ground.
They are, the people in the lead are jogging.
The people, it's, it's, it's, it's, that, I, I saw the footage.
And I'm just like, you're cheating.
You're jogging.
Alexine is way too. But they're not engaged.
All the people in here are seeing what I saw.
They're cheating.
It shouldn't count.
But how come they're not calling it out?
I don't know.
Because they probably would realize it's, it's not realize none of it can work. Because of woke.
Because of walk.
Because of walk.
Because of walk.
Did you guys ever read The Long Walk?
No. So it's like this Stephen King
dystopian book and it's like the plot
is like every year
it's like this dystopian future and it's like every
year all these like 100 boys like collect and they start walking.
And then every, if you drop below four, like he made up some dumbass number.
I remember my friend and I in high school were like obsessed with this book.
So we tried it on a treadmill and we're like, this is way too fast.
But I think it's like if you drop below four miles an hour, like three times you get shot.
Damn.
So it's 100 boys and the book just follows these 100 boys as they walk.
And it's like, you know, there's no stopping for the bathroom.
There's no stopping to sleep.
It's like a grueling.
And, you know, the person who wins is like aware to whatever they want.
And so I thought about that a lot as a kid.
That's crazy that Mr. Beast read that and was like, I think I can make this.
I think I can work with this.
I think this is my job now.
Yeah, that's I mean, you know, for anyone who's read it at home, it's like, it's such
a high school boy.
I think Stephen King, like, came up with it in high school and, like, wrote a lot of it
in high school.
Oh, really?
And so when me and my friend read it in high school, we're like, this is the coolest book
we've ever read.
I had a buddy who was really into that.
Yeah.
Have you read almost all the Stephen King books?
I've read probably, I've read over half,
which may not sound like a lot, but it's a lot of books.
80 books.
He reads.
Probably at least like 30, I would say, of his books.
That's impressive.
What's your favorite?
Long Lock was up there for a while.
I love It.
That's a cliche pick, but it's a that's a cliche pick but it's you know it's it's a really special book
and then um i i liked you know it was in my top three books but uh his uh his one about the guy
who goes back in time to try and save jfk from getting shot what is it 11 22 63 i think cool
um i heard that was good it's one of the stupidest concepts for a book ever.
And the way it kind of comes about in the book is so funny
because he has this, like, there's this restaurant.
So the guy's a high school teacher,
as most Stephen King protagonists are wont to be.
They're either high school teachers or authors,
or sometimes both.
And, you know, he always goes to this kind of diner.
And he goes to the diner every week at least.
He's like, oh, they have these burgers that are so cheap.
And they're so good.
And he's like, man, how can this guy afford to have these really cheap, delicious burgers?
And after a while, the guy kind of pulls him aside.
He's like, hey, you want to know how?
He's like, well, I have this portal in my my basement and it takes you back to the year 1962 and so i
go back in time and i buy the meat and i come back with it and he's like that's crazy i believe you
and then and he's like he's like i yeah like sure whatever man like as long as you keep feeding me
this delicious beef um and so so what happens
is uh one time he comes to the restaurant and the guy like he comes out of like the back and he
looks like really like old and haggard and he's like what happened he's like well you won't believe
what i just did i went so every time he goes back in time he goes back to the same day in the same
time in 1962 he's like i stuck around i stuck around in 1962 for over a year and i tried to prevent the
assassination of jfk and and he's like that's the craziest thing i've ever heard and he's like well
i want you to do it now and he's like all right he's like i don't have a lot going on he's like
well you come back like kind of immediately um so he goes back in time and he spends like he spends
like over a year in the 60s trying to like put
together his plan he's like how am i going to stop the assassination of jfk uh but you know while
he's back there he like falls in love he like you know kind of gets invested in the in the time
period he's like you know what am i actually doing back here and it's like a fascinating it becomes
like a beautiful love story instead he kills elvis yeah no he no like he i would have been doing dumb
shit back then frankly um but like the whole
like kind of rub is like the more you push at the past the more it like pushes back interesting um
so like you know he will try and change things but things will kind of like try and like prevent
him from like doing that and it's a it's one of the best books i've ever read and it's stupid as
shit but like you know stephen king is i mean I think he's a genius because he can make the dumbest shit
ever work in a
awesome way
that's cool
thanks for letting me on Smoshcast and letting me yap about Stephen King
Selina are you reading any
books? I am not reading any
books that's awesome
I'm not a reader I used to be a
reader I used to read a lot when I was
a kid and like I would go to the library a lot and then
life just happened
you gotta force it frankly
no I'm actually no I forgot
I'm reading the Bridgerton books
oh nice
how many of those are there?
oh I forgot actually I'm reading a bunch of books right now
well no it's because I'm listening
to it so I'm like
I heard the books aren't as good as the show not they're really not it's really not they're like yeah they're
like gas station romance novel books as soon as i clock that like am i the older i get the more if
i'm not fucking with the book i'm like okay next book yeah well because i want to compare it to how
the show yeah is gonna go that's that's why I'm reading it. To some degree. Exactly.
Yeah.
But we're about to wrap up.
Yes.
But I have a, I really want to give a shout out also.
We forgot to talk about her.
Ilona Mar.
Oh, yes.
And the women's rugby team.
Dude.
Courtney's been obsessed.
Yes.
I love her.
And so has Ian.
Yeah.
Ian's got a crush. Oh, I did see his.
And she's really tall right yeah yeah well
she's a rugby player yeah run through a wall yeah oh this was i i the video hasn't gone up she's so
funny though honestly it might not even been in a video but uh i didn't realize women's rugby was
an olympic sport and everyone's like how did you not know? I was like, I didn't know. For the US team to get bronze is impressive.
And she's American?
I know nothing about it.
It's the US team.
So yeah.
But of course, New Zealand, I think, won gold, right?
You're just not going to beat them at rugby.
But for us to get bronze is insane.
Because it's not a sport that the US is known for.
So our women's team really went and crushed.
I've only seen pictures of her. and I was like, that's awesome.
I saw her so much on TikTok.
I actually didn't know what sport she played.
Because she's just kind of a celebrity on TikTok.
And she's just really funny.
And I knew she was an athlete.
But, yeah, we tried to get her on the podcast.
Yeah.
When?
Before the O Games.
Previous months.
Before, yeah.
I knew Kiana was behind that. Before the O Games. She was busy, I believe. Yeah. Training for the O Games. I know Kiana was behind that.
She was busy, I believe.
O Games.
But it could still happen.
We'll make it happen. We'll get her on and we'll bring Ian on.
We can
recreate the Tyler1 pic.
We won't let her know that Ian has a huge crush
on her. He's already fucking added her, bro.
That was what I texted.
He's like, crush with Kesha over That was what I texted because he's like crushed with Kesha
over. Now this chick is the one.
But he added Kesha.
Well, yeah, because he's probably trying to make Kesha jealous.
Okay, I guess.
He's going to see and be like, wait, he doesn't like me anymore.
No. Okay, I'm sorry.
Last thing. Is Kesha kind of tall?
I think so, yeah. Because I saw this picture of her with Chapel Row.
They're both taller than Ian.
I love that. It seems Ian has a tie yeah, he has a type
So yeah, I can't do that. Yeah, so alone wants to be rugby lifted
No, it's to be sure he wants to be sure that the rug lift is so funny. Oh, do you grab your pants?
They fucking they say wedgie wedgie you bro into the air now
I remember like all the cuz like all the guys like kind of fall on each other and they like they have to like grab
Each other's ass and like their pants are coming down, like, kind of fall on each other. And they have to, like, grab each other's ass.
And, like, their pants are coming down.
They're like, what kind of sport is this, man?
I don't know.
I don't know the rules.
Yeah.
I think you guys should do it right now.
It's been a great episode.
We should just bang each other, bro.
What kind of podcast is this?
Thank you, Selena.
Thank you, Spencer.
Thank you.
Thank you for this impromptu episode.
This was a chill time. Thanks for coming on. Thank you, Selena. Thank you, Spencer. Thank you. Thank you for this impromptu episode. This was a chill time.
Thanks for coming on.
Thank you.
No, I love talking about the O games.
Yeah.
Yeah.
O games.
Hey, three glasses.
Wow.
Three glasses.
Three glasses.
Huge.
How does it feel?
It feels fine.
It's definitely for, I can read things farther away.
You kind of got a little high up on your head.
I know.
I wasn't going to point it out.
I was trying to tilt them down because of glare sometimes with cameras.
Because of woke.
I'm so used to hearing people tell you and Noah and other people,
like, hey, can you tilt the...
Oh, during...
I think that's mostly for thumbnails.
Oh, really?
That's my impression.
Otherwise, I'm like...
I was doing that for no reason.
But I was also doing it kind of just for fun.
I was still not used to it entirely.
No, I remember I tricked someone one time,
but I was like, hey, you know the way you can tell
if glasses are good or not is if you can do the thing
where you press down on the back thing,
and they go like...
And they're like, no way.
And I was like, no, I just made that up.
You can't do it?
No, I can't.
And that was before I had...
Yeah.
Yeah, I think one of them is a minus 1.5.
Oh, baby prescriptions.
Yeah, it's mild nearsightedness.
So what I really needed it for.
You're just trying to look dilfier, bro.
What I needed it for, and I'm going to use it today because I just couldn't forget them, is the teleprompter.
I was having trouble with the teleprompter on Reddit stories and here whenever we do ad reads.
I was like,
I'm struggling a little bit.
Yeah.
No,
mine changed,
I don't want to say
changed my life,
that's dramatic.
They changed a lot
for the better.
Anyways,
