Welcome to Smosh Mouth. I'm Shane and I'm joined by Damien and Arasha.
I'm Arasha.
And I'm Damien.
How's it going?
It's good.
Yeah, doing great, Shane. Happy to be here.
Yeah.
Fantastic.
How are you?
I'm good. For those watching and listening, this will be our next Try Not To Laugh podcast episode.
We haven't begun the game yet. We'll begin in like five to ten minutes.
I can stop trying.
Yeah.
But I decided to bring you both into this because I feel like you both are the hardest
to break.
Yeah.
Go team.
We are strong.
We did sort of like check in in the kitchen this morning and talk about that a little
bit where we're like, we didn't prepare anything.
And also like we're very dry.
I call us the dry goods. Yeah up the pantry okay in our in our family kitchen in this house
that we all live in we're all best friends yeah we all live here we live here we met up in the
kitchen this 10 stories underground spencer tucks us in at night yes us forehead kisses if we consent
yeah right and that's it um um no i i think i think
this will be very interesting uh and i don't want you guys to go easy on this i mean i want you to
play for real shane it's 9 a.m i feel like if we get you to laugh it's it's the best we can do
right right no i'm feeling a lot of pressure so you know i'm i'm i'm just here to talk about
to talk about life and that that's the thing, man.
That's it.
I think sometimes these Try Not To Laugh podcasts, we get a little too, like, focused on telling jokes as opposed to just relax and having a conversation, letting the jokes come out naturally.
That part.
You know, like.
Yeah.
You'd be a great acting teacher, Shane.
That, I think, is an insult.
No. I think is an insult. I was thinking the other day about how there's probably not an industry where most of them are insane than acting coaches.
Is there any career where 99% are fully crazy people?
I think mechanic.
Mechanic.
Because I saw.
What?
Mechanic?
I want to give credit, but I can't because I don't remember the name,
but I saw a stand-up the other day on TikTok as I was just scrolling through, because, you know, that's what you do.
What's up, Gen Z?
And, like, he was just, like, Mechanic is the last thing left where, like, everything is just about probably something.
He's like, there's no list of prices.
It's just like, what can you do?
He's like, well, you need a new engine.
It's probably anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000.
I need today or a week. We'll see. And there's just no, what can you do? He's like, well, you need a new engine. It's probably anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000. I need today or a week.
We'll see.
And there's just no list.
And you just, yeah.
And I think that's kind of crazy.
I guess you're onto something.
Well, he is.
Give him credit.
Shout out in the comments.
All right.
I don't know.
Mechanics are, I don't think of them as crazy.
Like, there's some stereotypes about mechanics.
I think it depends on what state you're in.
Like, a Boston mechanic or a California mechanic, very different.
Mechanic can be hot.
Yeah, but acting coaches can't.
Right.
That's the main difference here.
Not according to like everyone in the last acting class I took.
Really?
I took an acting class for years and like the guy was just this, I don't know, there was nothing super descript about him.
He was just like an adult.
Like he wasn't daddy, he was a father. Just a guy. He was just like an adult. Like he wasn't daddy. He was a father.
Just a guy.
He was just an adult.
And like apparently we had like a cast party and everyone was getting a little tipsy.
And like everyone in the class who was attracted to men was just like, oh, yeah, him anytime, anywhere.
And I was like, fucking really?
We're going to talk after this podcast so you can tell me about this class.
I don't think I will.
But thank you, though.
I want to know.
OK, I'll give you the info. I just want to know who the teacher is so we can Google it and see if about this class. I don't think I will, but thank you, though. I want to know. Okay, I'll give you the info.
I just want to know who the teacher is
so we can Google it and see if he's hot.
He's just a guy.
Think of a guy.
Just think of a guy.
Okay, he's hot.
Yeah, now imagine dragons.
Whoa!
Yeah, that's pretty cool, too.
I feel like, I don't know,
I have a lot of opinions about acting classes
because I went to so many for so long,
and I do think acting class is very important
because it's just important to practice.
But there's so many acting classes that I was in
where I was like, this coach has no idea
what they're doing. I'm like, I'm learning
because we're doing it, but not because
of what you're saying. You're saying
random shit. Interesting.
My acting class, the one that I was
referring to before, was like the reason
I started to realize that I think a little bit differently
and ultimately am neurodivergent.
Because his whole thing was like, you have to be thinking as the character.
Think your thoughts.
What are you thinking in this moment?
And I'm like, oh, I'm thinking nine different things.
And some are as the character, but then others are like,
did the orange color or did the tree come first?
And it was the fruit.
But it's all these things.
And he's like, well, no, think as the character.
I'm like, does everybody not think like a shotgun spray
of thoughts all the time?
And I was like, oh, oops.
Interesting.
But you probably could find an acting coach
that would teach in a way that would accommodate
how you're thinking.
Yeah, maybe like private.
Because I feel like there's different styles.
Because there were the styles where it's like,
pull from your real life.
And then one of the acting coaches I went to was like, no, f*** that.
Never do that.
And I was like, okay.
Yeah, yeah.
And so after a few acting classes, I feel like you learn.
Every acting coach is going to tell you, don't do what that last acting coach said.
They're an idiot.
Truly, truly.
And one of the acting coaches I had, who I did really like, because it was very film, TV based.
But we would get new students who were fresh out of theater school. One of the acting coaches I had who I did really like because it was very like film TV based.
But we would get new students who were like fresh out of like theater school or like like learning theater. And he would always just be like, God, we got it.
We have to like deconstruct everything, you know.
Yeah.
Even though it's not wrong for the medium that they're doing.
It's not bad.
It's just different.
So fascinating.
But frustrating. I think my issue with like classes is that, you know, there's this big focus on like technique and the craft, which is, of course, important.
But I wish that there was more of an emphasis placed on the technicalities of acting, like the business of acting.
Teach people how to submit and how to light themselves for an audition now that we have self tape, stuff like that.
I got really lucky in
that way that in arizona when i first got into acting it was like oh let's get into like theater
like community theater and i did one play and then one of the other actors in that play was like oh i
go to this acting class you should should come with me and i go thinking it'll be like oh like
acting class for like theater and they were teaching like audition technique they had a camera
set up and you were
learning how to act in front of a camera and give eye lines to that camera and all that stuff so
that's kind of immediately what i got into by pure accident huge kind of same and it it helped me
when i came out to la like auditions weren't crazy because this acting class always had a camera
there it's pretty awesome yeah yeah it was great it. Absolutely. This is a completely different ballpark.
Yeah, yeah. Super different. I think that's the benefit
of growing up in one of those third-tier markets
like, oh, Atlanta, oh, Arizona,
oh, Texas, because it's always
like you start out in community theater, but there's that
one parent where it's like, well, you know, we're taking
Becky Ann up to the acting,
acting actor studio up in such
and such town, and then that's all
it takes for you to break in.
Also, I have a challenge for everybody out there real quick.
I painted my nails literally right before we started filming,
thinking I would have time, and I didn't.
And so I've already tracked some onto my ear and on a part of my hand.
And I wiped it off, but, you know.
I'm not seeing anything.
I didn't notice.
My thought is that during this, at some point,
I am going to wipe something on something,
and I want you to point it out in the comments.
Well, if it makes us laugh, then it's good.
Yeah, what if I just grab some and put it on your face?
Do it, but do it under my eyes,
then we'll be like, gridiron gang!
Nice.
I never saw that.
That is.
Yeah, I know.
Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
I know, you're 19 years old.
I'm 16, so.
That's okay.
Well, happy birthday.
Well, thank you.
You can draft.
You can vote illegally.
Now, 16. Well, happy birthday. Well, thank you. You can write you can vote illegally now 16
Spend you should all right. I got that laugh out. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I'm letting it out I'm just I actually I wasn't laughing. I was just having fun. Hmm. Are you guys ready to begin?
Do you want to get this started? Sure. I kind of wish we went back to acting technique, but okay
I mean we can go back to talking about acting technique. It'd be funny.
No.
No.
All right.
The moment's passed.
Someone talked about nail polish.
All right, are we ready to begin?
Let's begin.
Look, we haven't agreed on what the prize is,
but I don't think it matters.
I think we all care about honor here.
We all care about our pride.
What's the prize?
And our ability.
Troy.
Maybe we can talk afterwards.
Maybe a $20 will get thrown on this table.
Who knows?
So last time I won.
We don't know.
We can't.
Legally, Smosh can't do anything.
But I personally, Shane, maybe.
I've been paid before when I win games videos.
Yeah.
Really?
Alex pays me.
Because they can't give you hot dogs.
That's not a joke.
That's not a joke.
I'm not kidding.
I think that's fresh out of his pocket.
Oh, absolutely it is.
He's like, hey, I'll bet you like 10 bucks you won't win.
And then he'll be like, I'm a man of my word.
Honestly, we don't talk about this enough.
Alex is rich, you guys.
That is rich.
Oh, I forgot that we're starting.
No, we haven't started.
I think we didn't.
Because we didn't establish a prize.
We need to officially all agree that we're beginning. Because here's the thing
every time I've won something here it's been like
an Olive Garden gift card and as
an Italian I can't go there.
You're Italian? Yeah. Italian-German.
Sorry.
It was a gasp.
I know. So I can't
go there and then like last time I won
something on like a
streamed thing that Angela set me up on,
they gave me a Dick's Sporting Goods thing,
and I'm like, look at me.
So there's nothing I can, I need something that,
like a Steam gift card, Hatsune Miku, anything.
Like let's, okay.
How about we all put something into the potluck?
Okay.
That's what you call something that everybody brings.
We just all agree that we're gonna put something
worth $5 into the potluck at the end of this. Okay, that's what you call something that everybody we just all agree that we're gonna put something worth
$5 into the into the potluck at the end of this okay, we'll decide afterwards Maybe we can talk about it post in the comments something
I love doing my like little treasure hunts it like estate sales and stuff
I will find something $5 or less and I will find something specifically for the winner that I think they will like okay
You have a hair tie in my pocket that has some of my hair still on it
Let's put a pin in it.
Does that count?
That's not worth $5.
Let me put it online and tell you how much it might be worth then.
Okay.
Fine.
Whoever wins, the other two owe them a gift that is worth $5.
Great.
Deal.
Great.
All right.
Shall we begin?
You guys did it.
Yeah.
Beginning now.
Yes.
Beginning now.
So did you guys watch the VMAs last night?
Hell no.
I did see Chapel Roan's performance.
That was awesome.
That reminded me, you may not remember this, but back in the early 2000s, performances used to be like that.
They were just insane.
Huge.
They were all pretty big last night.
And I realize Beyonce's been doing it the entire time, but to have other people doing it is kind of shocking.
I liked Sabrina Carpenter's performance.
That was also good.
Huge. They're full-on pop stars. Oh, yeah. Very shocking. I liked Sabrina Carpenter's performance. That was also good. Huge.
They're full-on pop stars.
Oh, yeah.
Very cool.
I'm enjoying it.
But they're like opposites in ways.
Sabrina and Chapel?
Yeah.
In cool ways.
In cool ways.
Dark and light.
Ooh.
Badass.
Yeah, yeah.
Now we're getting into what I like.
Yeah.
Talk about that.
Do you like Chapel Roan?
I feel like you would love Chapel Roan.
I do, actually.
I listen to Chapel Roan? I feel like you would love Chapel Roan. I do, actually. I listen to Chapel Roan. I'm about to be that guy, but a few years back,
before Chapel Roan was super well known,
I was dating someone that was a fan,
and they were like, listen to this music,
listen to this music.
So I liked a couple of the songs, like Pink Pony Club.
So you wrote for Chapel Roan?
I did.
Well, I actually met Chapel Roan when I was your age, 16.
Whoa.
Because when you go to, because I went to Homecoming,
and there was like a couple of them there.
Some of the parents were acting as Chapel Roans,
and they made sure that we were not getting into trouble.
That was smooth.
How could you look into my eyes and say something like that?
That was smooth.
Thank you.
That was smooth. Thank you. That was smooth.
Thank you.
That's the thing with Damien is like, you won't realize he's been planning something for like five sentences.
Right, right.
No, he's sneaky.
You guys will see it on the video when you guys were like, VMAs, Chaparron.
I was like, I just literally looked back and forth between you like.
You started cooking?
You got this.
All right.
Well, no, it's just I don't know.
I don't watch award shows.
Something as exciting as the VMAs that I've been probably most focused on.
Have you guys watched the Hawk Tua podcast?
Talk Tua?
Literally.
I'm actually not joking.
It is called Talk Tua.
Wait, really?
It is called Talk Tua.
That's a really creative, smart name.
Yeah.
It is called Talk Tua.
I watched it.
I don't remember anything.
Is it Hawk Tua girl
Having some kind of monetized way to capitalize
On like that
I'm not actually kidding she does
Give an instructional on how to
Spit on that thing
So she's an acting teacher
Specifically the phrase Hawk Tua
I see
I think she's missed core concept of what people
Were interested in instruction-wise.
You know, spitting on that thing.
I know.
On what thing?
The hot dog of the person.
It shoots out at the bottom of your tummy sometimes for some people.
I'm breathing so differently than I normally do.
That's called Lamaze.
Yeah, no, I needed that.
I needed that exhale.
Oh, man.
Anyways, no, I actually, I lied.
I did not watch the Talk To A podcast.
But it is a real thing that exists.
Is it just her?
I want to know, actually, kind of breaking for a second,
I want to know in the comments below,
how mad would people be
if we brought Hawk to a girl on Smosh Mouth?
I'm just curious.
I just want to gauge.
It's not happening.
There's no cogs turning or anything.
People would love it.
You think they'd like it?
Oh my gosh, yeah.
I feel like our audience,
I don't know if our audience would be like,
come on.
I think they'd appreciate the novelty of it.
Maybe if we don't highlight her, but it's like Mario Kart with Hakutua.
That'd be funny.
You know?
So it's like she's just in a games video.
Or like Moose Master with Hakutua Girl.
Yeah.
When you pull a card, you have to Hakutua spit on that thing.
Try not to laugh. Hawktua.
That'd be funny. Right. Hawktua says.
I think...
Go for it. Cover up.
What silly shirt.
What fresh hell awaits me?
Does that say...
Sorry.
Does that say dilf?
God, that was such a good parry. Sorry, I gotta do a little repost.
Little.
This is.
Is that Defy?
This is an old Defy shirt.
Found it.
Amazing. Good.
It's made out of that material that I hate. That like soft
cotton. That everything was
made out of for like five years.
It's better than the like ultra cotton.
They're like heavy real cotton and you're like
great. It's a cardboard. I love a heavy shirt.
I kind of like the heavy.
Every shirt you'd go anywhere
and they'd be like here's a free shirt and it was made out of
this. It's made out of like let me
sweat through that the second I put it on.
As somebody that's already sweating just to live,
I'm a big fan.
Is that, you've been working out, you look so good,
is that a small?
I don't know, I think it's a medium.
I think it's a medium, I can't see.
Want me to peek, Want me to peek?
Want me to peek?
Wouldn't it be crazy if something was written there?
It's a large?
Wow, Beastman!
Shirts are very light.
Shane Big.
Shane Big.
Shane Big.
Shane Read.
Shane Defy.
M-asshole me.
Why is this like that?
What do you mean?
Why does that look like that?
Why can I only make out the D and kind of F?
Well, Defy was a bad company.
I see.
They made bad decisions.
Gotcha.
So even their design of their logo was kind of bad.
Oh, wait.
Now I see it.
Yeah, you get it.
It's about the letters that aren't there.
And it's about the money they didn't have.
I see. It's the money that you aren't there, and it's about the money they didn't have. I see.
It's the money that you didn't make along the way.
Are you guys like a...
What's up?
No, you go.
I was about to say,
it's the missing letters in between a bunch of white.
The white represents cocaine
that I'm pretty sure a couple of the owners were on.
Allegedly from me.
Definitely.
Are you guys allowed to speak about Defy the way
that you speak about it? Is there anybody still
at Defy? Is there anybody at Defy
that you guys are scared of?
I could beat up Keith easily.
Keith is still at Defy?
He was. Keith does
when he's not working on Smosh videos
he goes back to the old building.
The Defy house. Yeah.
The Defy house. And. The Defy house.
And he just chills there. I see.
I could beat up... Who else is around?
I don't know. Bleep these names.
You're not
even naming the corporate people. You're just
naming people we've worked with. Well, there's the ones I'm actually
scared of. They got big, big money. Who's...
Oh.
A guy who looked just like me. Yeah. I thought you were going to say me. That'd be funny. A guy who looked just like me yeah i thought you were gonna
say me that'd be funny a guy who actually that was a rasha wouldn't it be funny if you just
revealed at some point you're like i was actually at defy the whole time it's me it was me um i feel
like i as much as i love a long con i don't know if I'd be able to hold on to it that long. Really?
I would have revealed it a while ago.
Wow.
But to reveal it on, not that Smosh Mouth is small, but to reveal it on a very quick, one-off Smosh Mouth episode, kind of iconic. I want to make a whole episode about this con that you pulled off.
You think that that's what I want?
Do you have any cons that you're pulling off right now, like currently?
Any long cons that we should just,
you don't have to say what it is,
but for the fans,
are you currently in the process of pulling off something?
Well, there's that one that you and I are working on.
Right.
I remember.
Shane.
Yeah.
It's not just yes It's yes and Shane
We've been meeting
Yes
About this
I know
Well I'm not gonna talk about it here
Well it's gonna be revealed on
November
Fourth
God damn it
I knew it
I knew it as soon as we started
So just keep it together.
Fuck.
We unfortunately have an episode that's releasing that day,
and I'm just like...
Make your predictions.
Fuck.
Lean into it.
Just lean into it.
Okay.
I predict **** from Defy is going to come out of left field and take the election.
Okay.
So actually, we just got confirmation that the fifth is, I think that's how it's always been.
And you know what?
That's good.
Did they move it?
I think they moved it.
It's good, actually.
So then Archon can come out and then other less important news will come out.
I think Kamala had a thing on the 4th, if I remember correctly.
Right, right, right.
Yes.
With her kid.
With her kid, yeah.
Yeah.
Right.
Cool model.
Her kid, I believe, is a cool, like, awesome model.
You know at the beginning of the Jetsons where...
Her kid's a cool model.
An adult.
Her kid is a cool model
I'm not kidding
Conservatives have been trying to dunk on her
And it's like
You just keep showing photos of this like
Dope person
What?
Just the way that you're like
Her kid's a cool model
It sounds like English is not your first language
And you're trying to fit in super well
You're like
Oh they're like a cool model you guys
I want to totally like breakdancing clubs have sex on someone it's going to be crazy
Did you ever do that that simulation where you try to get into that club that exclusive club? Oh
There's a real thing there's a website and there because there's this super exclusive club in like I know, I thought, sorry, going from that, I thought you were talking about like- There's a real thing. There's a website,
because there's this super exclusive club in like,
I don't know, it's in like Germany
or somewhere in Europe, right?
And to get in, you have to like say
a specific series of phrases and stuff.
And it's like super exclusive.
But online, you can go through a simulation
to see if you can get into the club.
And you have, it's just, it's like,
it plays out in real time.
It's like real people.
And it goes through this video, and you have to
answer questions in sequence.
And we did it a bunch, and we
never got in. Really? Yes.
How were you dressed?
Club attire or what?
Yeah, I was wearing a full
puma track suit, and I still
wasn't let in
Did you smell like aqua velvet?
No
So that's my problem
I'm going to change it up for a bit
Arasha, you were in a Christmas movie
A little bit ago
Called Spirited
Oh, the horse
Yeah, this was a sequel, Spirited
Yeah, the hot horse
Yeah, with eyebrows What does that mean, Spirit Id. Yeah, the hot horse.
Yeah, with eyebrows.
What does that mean?
The DreamWorks movie with the hot horse.
Yeah, Spirit.
And then you had the sequel, Spirit Id.
Right, okay.
It's a sequel.
Sure, yes, man.
Right.
Anyways, you were in this movie.
It had Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell in it.
And you played a role of co-worker in it.
What was their name?
Yeah, yeah.
Anyways, I thought it was interesting, you know, so I did some research and I actually found the sides for the audition for this role.
I'm going to kill you.
I'll hope.
For the record, I was actually a stand-in.
I got bumped one day at a co-worker.
Pretty awesome.
Okay.
That's great.
Let's just put that out there for the record.
Okay, this isn't fair.
So this is double-sided, so we'll turn the page at one point.
But Damien, can you read stage direction and also be the line at the end?
Line at the end?
Why? Why, that's the lead. line at the end. Line at the end? Why?
Why, that's the lead. That's the lead.
And then Arasha, can you be co-worker,
and I'll play the other role.
Of course.
Anyways, here we go.
So just to be clear, I'm co-worker.
You are co-worker.
Got it.
Which is your role.
Right.
That you booked, so you nailed this.
Anyways, Damien, take it away.
Spirited.
Interior, corporate office Christmas time
Clint Briggs, Ryan Reynolds
Is typing furiously at his cubicle
He doesn't believe in the magic of Christmas
Just then
Coworker of Rasha Lalani
Who is super forgettable, approaches
Hey Clint
Are you going to a holiday party this Friday?
Clint looks at co-worker, confused.
I'm sorry, have we met?
Co-worker looks around, confused.
Um, yes?
No, sorry, this isn't the script.
I've never met you in my life.
Ryan, I've introduced myself about a dozen times.
It's truly incredible.
You're kind of a piece of shit.
Have you met my wife?
Uh, no.
I own a soccer team.
Cool.
Who are you?
Are you serious?
The director, Stanley Kumbrik, stands and applauds.
Cut.
We got it.
That's a wrap.
The entire crew files into a truck, and then drives into a swamp
I think there's an ink mark on this
Do you mind reading that really quick, Damien?
The diagonal
Pepper
God, stone cold
What does that mean? What is pepper?
It's from the Defy days days when we ate a bunch of pepper
Actually it wasn't
Okay so it's yes and
Right it's from the Defy days
When we ate a bunch of pepper
No it wasn't you fucking idiot
From the Defy kitchen
Anyways Arasha isn't that crazy
This is so crazy
This is like exactly what happened on set.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, this is tough.
Does it bring back memories?
It absolutely does.
Because, you know, I was very excited the day that I was bumped, right?
They were like, oh, we need somebody in the scene.
And there was like a dialogue.
It could be literally anyone.
Anyone.
Does anyone want to do it? guys anyone anyone anyone and then they
were like how about this beautiful very talented stand-in that she was busy as
fuck so she moved out of the way and then they were like, how about the beautiful and talented Arasha? And I said yes.
Arasha Banks?
No.
Never mind.
I was like, if there was another person named Arasha, I'm screwed, man.
I see.
The thing is, all of these things are funny.
I'm just broken.
Exactly.
No, exactly.
I'm trying to win.
That's really like.
I otherwise would be having more fun.
I'm really glad I've realized this like seven
ish years into my smosh career it's really about like you know when you think about the comedy of
the episode it is more about winning like yes i could laugh and we could all have a great time
and i could just let myself go but five bucks is five bucks which is is what I said when Ian cast me. It's five bucks each, actually.
So a $15 total for the winner.
Well, with taxes.
Oh, with taxes, it's going to definitely come down to like five.
$4.75.
Yeah, $4.75.
And think about that on November 5th.
Fuck.
Fuck, man.
God damn. I am fighting for my life here and i'm losing bad yeah right now it's it's it's
really a struggle like i feel like i'm just not breathing a little bit oh you gotta breathe a
little bit no okay and that's how see how i respected those boundaries when arasha was just
like i'm not gonna breathe and. And I was like, okay.
That was very cool of you, man.
You sounded a little bit like
if South Park was doing
Deadpool. Yeah, no.
I don't really have
a Ryan Reynolds impression. It's just
like a little bit of like the...
Because all I can say sometimes is, great.
Great. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I remember on the first day, I think I, yeah, yeah. I remember on the first day.
I think I might have told this story.
But on the first day of set, he came over.
And he was like, to every stand-in, everyone, he was like, first day.
And that's kind of how he talked to us all the time.
Like you're not people.
And he was like, I'm Ryan.
Hey, I'm Ryan.
It's kind of like.
Wow.
So he's committed.
I mean, it was definitely kind. It's definitely a like. Wow. So he's committed. I mean, it was definitely kind.
It's definitely a nice thing to introduce yourself, even if it does feel like weird in a sense.
But I'm sure he's also like, it's weird, but I'm pushing past the weird, you know?
Yeah.
Can you do an impression of Damien and I?
Actually, that'd be great.
I'd love that.
Okay.
Here's my impression of Arasha.
Here we go. So it's probably my impression of, of Arasha. Um,
here we go.
So it's probably something like,
sure,
I can.
That's actually really good.
Yeah.
It's pretty good.
That's some crazy side.
I good.
Yeah.
Maybe show aside to me that the camera doesn't know.
Oh,
I don't do that. You do that all the time. You do do that. I don't do that. Whenever it's compulsory. doesn't know.
I don't do that. You do that all the time.
You do do that a lot.
I don't do that.
Whenever we ask a question that you don't understand.
And you do it when you sleep, for sure.
Yeah, if you, if you, if you.
Well that's because our beds are right next to each other.
Because we live in the same house.
We have a bunch of hammocks on the ceiling of this studio.
I do have that dream all the time, um,
where I can fly.
No.
Um,
where it's,
uh,
where it is like,
with the same vibe of like,
Oh,
you're back in high school and blah,
blah,
blah.
It's like,
I'll be in a big ass house and then there'll be like all these different rooms.
And I'll be like,
Oh,
we all like live here now.
Like this is Shane's room and this is whatever.
But like,
then I'll open up the door, and I'll be like,
oh, my room is way too small or kind of removed.
I don't want to rock the boat.
But it's this whole, it's like all the stress of moving in with roommates
that you also work with.
Yeah.
So my con is I will be attending MCM London Comic Con at the end of October.
Feel free to come on down.
That's the con I've been working on.
That's pretty cool.
You can walk up to Damien and experience all this shit.
Yeah, or just take a selfie.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's do Damien next.
Let's do Damien next.
Oh, yeah.
Do you have a Damien impression?
How hard can you blink?
I don't know.
I feel like I have Shane's ready, actually.
Oh, okay.
Let's see it.
Let me maybe do Shane.
Let me maybe do Shane.
Okay, hear me out now.
This is a very specific Shane.
This is the Shane that's like, this is the Shane when Shane is like, this is the Shane that when Shane is like, this is the Shane like.
I'm so pissed.
That's like, that's like, that's like.
Give me a break.
He's like, he's like being a character for a second.
He'll make this face.
He'll be like.
That's true.
He's like.
He's like, yeah, I guess I can.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, that one, that one, that guy.
I'm not doing a character though, this is me.
Right, that's why I was struggling to describe it
because it's not a character.
Are you talking about Dumpster Wizard?
Is that who I look like?
Well, the eye's gotta be way more messed up.
Okay, so then it's not Dumpster Wizard.
You do the Dreamworks poster, one eyebrow.
Where you just look at the front of the camera
and you're just like, yeah, this is Madagascar
Oh, yeah, yeah, that's Shane coming on said he's like
Okay
Wow, that's well, that's a that's a fine. I guess that's an okay energy to be
Changed walking he's like sup dude. Hey, so I was weekend? That's just an impression of a guy. That's awesome.
That's awesome.
You know. Arasha.
What? Yeah, I'll take
a water. Yeah. That's
so good. You're saying like normal
human phrases. No, this is some Shane-isms.
Normal human phrases. Yeah, I'll
take a water. How's it going?
Awesome. But it's the way that you're saying.
I agree. Look, the whole room is with me.
Everybody's like, that's Shane.
Everyone's like, to a T.
That's fucking Shane.
Because that's something I definitely wouldn't have picked up on,
but that's so true, where it's not like, do you want a water?
Sure.
It's always like, I've micro-considered it and am delivering my answer.
It's like, yeah, I'll take a water.
Actually, you know what?
I could go for a nice glass of wet.
Like I'm in a Samuel Adams commercial.
Yeah.
A little bit.
You know what, yeah.
I think I'll take a water.
I think I'll take a bottle of moist.
Okay.
I'm trying to think, what else do you say to me?
Like, you can go in front of me if you want.
Yeah.
What are we doing?
I think it's P.F. Chang's for lunch today.
It actually is. It actually is.
It actually is.
Yeah, I've been reading Kafka on the Shore.
And yeah, it's crazy.
They talk about like, I don't know.
It's just like they talk about like, yeah.
That's when you found out that I never read a book in my life.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm not seeing Shane in your impression. Oh, I'm just being an asshole. Oh, I see. know. That's when you found out that I never read a book in my life. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I'm not seeing Shane in your impression.
Oh, I'm just being an asshole.
Oh, I see.
I see.
Got it.
Me too.
Yeah.
There's tons of Damien-isms.
Blink so hard.
No, the blinking is never something I've thought about.
No, that's too easy.
I have more Shane in me.
I have more Shane guesses.
Yeah.
He's like.
All right. Yeah, let like Shane guesses. Alright.
Let's keep going with this. This is awesome.
This is awesome.
You're just saying things. This is awesome.
This is not an impression. You're just saying things. Welcome back. I'm Shane.
That's really good.
I become him. I just feel like
he's right here.
You know what it is too? The one thing I know is you like
experiencing new things but going full force into them.
And they are just normal dude-isms,
but you enjoy the nuance of them.
So you'll just be like, I've been buying a lot of chinos.
I wear chinos now.
Yeah, I've been pairing them with Sperry's shoes.
Sperry's?
In 2005.
Yeah, I listen to Chapel Roan.
She's huge now.
Yeah.
I don't know how I feel about any of this
that is transpiring.
Well, it's you.
Here's the one thing I prepared before
Try Not To Laugh.
It's another impression.
This is
Spongebob, but the Japanese language dub version.
Can you give me like two seconds to just prepare for this?
The title was a lot.
Arashi, you need to brace yourself.
This is gonna be insane.
All right, I'm not gonna laugh at this.
Damien, take it away.
Can one of you do a ringing phone sound, please?
Ring, ring, ring, ring.
Mooshy mooshy, Bokuwa Patrick-da.
Yeah, yeah, Patrick-des.
Ring, ring.
Ring, ring, ring, ring.
Mooshy mooshy.
Yeah, yeah, Patrick-des.
One more time, please.
Ring, ring ring ring
mushi mushi
yeah
Patrick
I was prepared for you to do a
Spongebob that was well that was he was playing
his clarinet and kissing a
jellyfish right on its ass
okay I liked that that was he was playing his clarinet and uh kissing a jellyfish right on its ass got it got it okay
i liked that it was well done it was well done what cari ma sen
so can i understand your accent so i forgot we just we're supposed to do fart stuff for
shane too no no yeah um that does remind me though uh you know voiceover is very much Damien's bag
thank you
I've talked about this before
I tried to do voiceover for years
and I never booked a single thing
I don't even think I ever got a call back
I was like damn this is not my bag
it's hard, it's a lot harder than I expected it to be
but I have some of my old auditions
because I would just do them on my
iPhone
which is probably part of the reason I never
booked anything, is I never had the right equipment.
I offered for your birthday to get you
a microphone, and you were like, no, instead
I'll quit. Yeah. I see.
Okay, hold on. You're going to play us some old voiceover
auditions? Yeah, yeah, hold on.
Here's one. Hi, Shane Topp,
5'5". Shane Topp, reading for Soldier
No. 3.
Get out of there!
Get out of there! get out of there get out of there get out of there get down get down get down these are uh grunts of pain Oh, oh, oh, oh, you shot me.
Oh, you shot me.
Oh, you shot me.
Oh, you shot me.
Oh, you shot me.
Oh, oh, oh, oh. I look forward to hearing from you.
I'm a big fan of Kingdom Hearts.
That was for Kingdom Hearts 3.
Wow, and you didn't book.
I didn't book.
That was crazy.
They probably cut the roll.
Yeah, it wasn't you.
That's probably what happened. Yeah, they wasn't you. That's probably what happened.
Yeah, they didn't have any Mickey in there.
No.
So listen, you might still hear back.
Yeah, when they bring that
project back, I'll be there.
Well, they made it. I don't know if you
played it. Maybe they'll make a sequel.
What do you think Kingdom Hearts is about?
Okay, here I go.
Alright, you guys are going to want to take a little bit of a sip of drink for this one.
No, I want Arasha to tell me what Kingdom Hearts is.
Yeah, please do.
You know Kingdom Hearts.
Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kingdom Hearts, it's about that.
You're aware of the game.
Yeah, it's about that.
Who are the characters in the game?
Well, it's that castle.
Have you never heard of Kingdom Hearts?
Arasha's 16 years old.
Guys, I'm literally describing it right now.
This is rude.
I guess that is crazy to think.
Like, Kingdom Hearts has not been much of a thing for a while.
Like, mainstream.
Okay, are we doing this right here?
Are we doing this right now, Shane?
I guess you're never going to laugh again for the rest of the day.
I laughed once already.
Yeah, but I mean, once I say that Kingdom Hearts is no longer a thing,
that's probably going to be devastating.
Well, here's the thing, Shane.
Spoiler alert. Kingdom Hearts
is light. And how
do you get to the power of light? The power of friendship.
So if you're going to say that that's not a thing,
I think we're actually good here.
I mean, when you think of
Aqua and Riku, who spend so much time in
darkness to fight for the light,
and Donald Duck is up until
Final Fantasy XVI, canonically
the strongest red mage
in any Final Fantasy property.
And Goofy straight up gets his shit rocked by a boulder.
No, I'm just thinking about what I think about that.
That's a dumb thing to say.
Go on.
No, it's not.
Okay.
See, Shane?
See how Rasha said, no, it's not,
and I just immediately accepted it.
You gotta have more confidence in it
This is Shane Top reading for Alien Grunt
number 12
It's not good
Pepper
Pepper
Pepper
Pepper Mmm, pepper. Pepper.
Pepper.
What is pepper?
So, capsicum plant. Oh, fuck.
Wait.
God damn.
That's too quick.
Holy shit.
What if that was all the buildup just for that joke?
Oh, my God.
That only counts as one laugh.
I feel like I should get a point because I alley-ooped you.
No, you didn't.
Hey, thanks.
I told Damien what that plant was called before we started filming.
That's true.
Has LaRosha laughed?
A lot.
I laughed. A lot, Shane. laughed? A lot. I laughed.
A lot, Shane.
Okay.
I laughed, I laughed.
And I listened.
Can I see your Damien impression now?
Yeah.
Okay, I think some Damien things is like,
Ooh, that's good, that's good.
Like, there's that.
A big exhale.
When you ask him a question, it's like,
what do you think about voiceover?
He's just like, oh.
I do mess up my shirt. Yeah. It's like, what do you think about voiceover? He's just like, oh. I do mess up my shirt.
Yeah.
It's like a specific shoulder tug.
Is it really?
You don't do it as much anymore.
I think you've stopped.
I think I'm more comfortable in my own skin.
Yeah.
Because I used to.
Well, thank you.
Because I used to be a leather craftsman,
and I would find people and stitch them up,
and I'd make a people suit like a Buffalo Bill.
And now I'm in my own skin.
It's from Jeepers Creepers.
You know Jeepers Creepers.
I turned my friend into a lampshade.
From Kingdom Hearts.
Yeah.
It's got the eyes and it's Pan's labyrinth.
He's like.
Yeah.
No, he didn't just reference five different things
in one sentence.
Yeah, I don't know.
With you guys, honestly, sometimes you guys just talk
and I'm just kind of tennis watching you guys a little bit.
Yeah. And it's just like, I don't know.
For sure. I like, I zone out for a second
and then I come back in. Totally.
And then I'm like, I know the general idea of what
these two were saying, so now I just get to
insert something else. I don't know, the VMAs aren't really my
thing. Yeah.
No, I never understood it. More of a
MTV Music Awards.
It was the hardest thing to
find it on TV.
I know.
How'd you guys watch it?
What'd you watch it on?
Well, that's a secret.
What?
What?
I had a friend hold up a Yak-Bak from the 90s
and piecemeal run it over to me, sound by sound.
That's pretty cool.
Thank you.
That's crazy.
You know what I saw recently that I thought was really cool looking?
Damien?
They had a Bluetooth cassette player.
I thought that was really cool.
And you're the exact market for that.
I know.
Because I think that sounds like a huge waste of time.
A cassette player.
You know what they did?
They made a jalopy that can fly.
That would be... Okay, that actually would be cool.
That would be pretty sick, actually.
But I don't own a single cassette. And I saw it, and I was like, that would be sick.
And I'm like, when am I going to start buying cassettes now?
They're not making cassettes anymore.
Well, okay.
You can still find them probably in thrift stores.
If you're in New York and walk down the street and someone asks if you like hip hop, they'll usually hand you a cassette, and then you have to pay them.
Right.
Yeah.
And the cassette is just a thinly veiled message of them begging for help.
And if you'd listen, if you'd only just listen.
You ever made a cassette for someone?
Yeah.
Did you really?
Yeah.
You made a mixtape for someone back in the day?
No, not romantically, no.
Just like a friend.
When I was a little kid, I had like a recorder and I was just like, welcome to the Damien
show.
And it was just me talking some bullshit.
Are you dead serious? I played it for someone and they were like, oh, this is, I don't want to listen to this anymore. And I was like, welcome to the Damien show. And it was just me talking some bullshit. Are you dead serious?
I played it for someone, and they were like, oh, this is, I don't want to listen to this anymore.
And I was like, yeah, for sure.
Okay, you said recorder, and now this reminded me.
I have to do my impression of a recorder for you guys.
Okay, great.
Of a recorder.
Of a recorder.
Like, you know, one of those.
Yeah, that you play in music class.
I'm going to warn sound right now.
This is going to sound like death screeching until I eventually get there.
Okay.
Okay, so let me get there.
Let me find it. Let me find it. Okay. Okay, here it comes.
Ready? Okay, hold on, hold on.
I might have to be laying down, so we'll see
if it comes out. Okay.
Wait, I'm getting there. I'm getting there.
I'm going to play Hot Cross Buns. Here I come. Here I come.
That was crazy.
That's crazy.
I'm waiting for the mama bird to come in and like feed her worms.
It can be better, it can be better.
No, I was about to say like giving hamsters CPR.
Okay, give me one more chance.
Mary had a little lamb.
This is crazy.
Mary had a little lamb.
Okay, Mary, okay.
Did you have to remember it?
I'm not from America.
What?
Okay, hold on, I'm getting it, I'm getting it,
I'm getting it.
I can see the cross buns now.
This is one of those exorcism movies.
I can do one of those.
Our audio listeners are causing accidents.
Okay, I think I have to lay down, you guys.
Last time I was doing it, I was laying down.
Yeah, Rasha.
I'm sorry.
Look, that was a great six minutes.
Thank you.
That was really fun. Cool, right? I look that was a great six minutes but i think it's
really fun cool right i think that was actually so good thank you when did you learn that you
could do that and how uh recently what a few weeks ago i was making that sound and then i turned it
into hot crust buns and then i was like oh my god this is like what we used to play in second grade
in the music room unless you guys don't know that because you're like
And they were like, thank you, I think we've got it.
Next. I was just about to
do that joke. Yes.
Of like great, awesome.
And then you were like, any notes? And they're like, none.
That was great. I think we found our co-worker.
We'll be calling you.
I can do it.
You walk out into a room full of people who look exactly
like you and you're like're like great I'm not special
Well now I don't need the recorder
I just need to open my mouth
Eventually get to that note
And then I can play
I guess Damien and I will do the rest of the podcast
I've got an exorcism
Impression
Oh do the exorcism impression man
Okay what do you want like a voice from beyond to say to you
Oh you're doing a great job.
I said great job, Shane.
I love you.
I miss how we used to.
And then I give you an inhaler.
Touch tipser Touch tips
Touch tips
Touch tips
Okay, I just started listening to what you're saying
And it's shocking
That is haunting
Talking is fun
This does scare me because we are going to go hunting for ghosts in the studio
If you use all the ghost meat, it's fine.
You have to use all the parts of the ghost.
When is this happening?
That's kind of like, that's also like the Lupita's voice
from Us.
Lupita Nyong'o?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know the voice that she does when she's like the
She's like, what?
She's badass.
She's like, what?
I swear to god
Oh that's a great RFK impression
What?
I was chopping up a whale
That I found at the beach
And you know that's what we would do
That is so you Shane
I played the game medieval
When I was a kid
And yeah the sidekick worm come out of his eye
and I put one in my brain to have a little comedic sidekick.
Anyways.
I swear I thought you meant up and that's why I was like, Kevin the Bird, Lupita Nyong'o.
No.
That's crazy.
No.
Us.
No.
Us.
Us. Nope. Jordan. No. Us. Nope. Us, us.
Nope.
Jordan.
Nope.
Anyways, Arasha, did you know that Damien and I
were roommates at one point?
Touch tips.
Okay, enough of that.
Enough of that.
I don't think I did know that, but we're all roommates.
Are you dead serious?
We're all roommates now.
In actuality, about 10 years ago,
Damien and I lived together in a house.
Angela was in our attic, apparently.
A bunch of other roommates.
But yeah, we lived in a house.
And it was crazy.
We lived together for a little over a year.
In the same room?
No.
I was in this back house type of thing.
But actually, it was a really fun experience,
but it was interesting to live with so many people, because we were
two of like five people living in this
place. A rotating cast
of characters. Exactly. But, you know,
with so many people, we had to have certain rules and
guidelines, and I actually found what
Damien gave me on my first week. I knew this was
bullshit. He gave me
a list of rules
and guidelines. I forgot
about this entirely. Yeah, Damien left this on my
door.
It really helped me
fit in with everyone
in the place. So Damien, if you want to read
what you wrote to me. Damien's
rules to you. To me.
For living in his back
house. Well, not his back house, but
we were all to be like
his new roommate, to be the new roommate in this house.
In so many words, Ned's declassified survival guy.
Exactly.
I already skimmed ahead a bit, and it made me almost chuckle, and I'm nervous.
Good luck.
Thank you.
We were actually roommates, but this is also true.
Okay, I'm not going to believe anything.
We were roommates.
Hey, Shane.
So excited you're joining the house as our new roommate.
I've listed below some guidelines that will help you fit into our living situation,
as well as some rules we've established for everyone in the house to follow.
It's redundant.
Number one, trash is to be taken out every Tuesday, not capitalized.
We cycle through who is responsible, so expect to do it every four weeks.
Number two, the fridge has been divided into four kingdoms.
You will take over the southern kingdom, but beware.
Raiders from the north have been growing more violent and greedy.
Best to build your defenses and grow your alliances with the west and eastern kingdoms.
Also not capitalized.
That's actually true.
He's really helping with the voice.
Number three, our neighbor George, who is,
who is likely a ghoul or phantom of some kind,
will sometimes appear at the front window.
Do no make eye contact with him, lest you pay his toll.
What's the toll?
Toll a lot of bullshit if you ask me.
Toll a lot of bullshit if you ask me.
That's a good one.
Number four.
The dirty hippies have been granted 15 parking spots. Them's the breaks. That's a good one. Number four, the dirty hippies have been granted 15 parking spots.
Them's the breaks.
That's real.
Number five, if you hear someone screaming at 5 a.m.,
that's me doing VO auditions.
That is also real.
I realized in horror how thin my walls were.
Well, I lived in the back house,
so I could hear him in the house,
through our backyard.
Could you hear anything else? No.
Okay. Ew.
I meant sex, Arasha.
I think it was specifically
5 a.m. because there's not much sound going.
There's not cars driving. There's not, like,
sound pollution at that point. Right. So I'd wake
up and hear just like,
you gotta stop doing that.
See, you didn't book, that's why.
Yeah.
Fuck.
You can't even pretend.
You have to be able to do your recorder impression
on the fly on a mic.
Okay, continue.
More rules.
Yeah, oh.
A lot of rules.
Number six, if we play N64, you get the sticky controller.
Also real.
One of.
Yeah, that's true.
They were all sticky.
Ew.
Number seven, I have a knife
Number eight
Never open a cupboard unless you want it to
Unless you want it to break
Every cupboard is one time use only
Also very
I forgot about that
Every cupboard was busted in this place
You would open it and just like
Fall off Where was it? East Hollywood about that. Every cupboard was busted in this place. You would open it and just fall off.
Where was it? East Hollywood?
East Hollywood. Well, the cupboard's in the kitchen.
The house was
about 100 years old.
So was George.
George was also a real person. George was a
ripe age of 80 when he watched that house be built.
I can't believe any of that. What's the watermark on this?
Oh, no.
I almost brought this up to you.
What's happening?
Ricky Gervais.
There it is.
Pepper.
Number nine.
I'm not in on the pepper joke.
You can't just say it to me.
I don't know it.
Okay, German for pepper is pfeffer.
They just add an F.
Yeah.
Number nine, the garage is technically...
Michelle Pfeffer.
She was so hot in Ricky Gervais' picture show.
I really liked her in that picture show.
Anyways.
Number nine, the garage is technically rented out
by a secret fifth tenant.
Can you guess who it is?
That's correct.
Mike Posner.
And you want to know why Mike Posner is in the garage?
Because he made eye contact with George.
Not so cool now, are you, Mr. Bow Chicka Wow Wow?
I was really proud of that one.
It's good.
It's good.
Do you remember him?
Mike Posner?
Yeah.
Of course.
And I listed his two songs.
Well, he had one other.
He thinks he's cooler than you.
Oh, what's the other one?
He had Cooler Than Me.
He had Please Don't Go.
Baby, Please Don't Go.
And then Bound Chicka Wow Wow.
And he's just been writing hits since, but other people perform them.
I took a-
He's like the Phantom of the Opera.
Well, because his face is all fucked up.
Like George.
And he loves that lady.
Yeah.
Which lady?
Michelle Pfeffer.
Michelle Pfeffer.
That was the final rule, right?
Number 10, buy me In-N-Out.
There it is.
Yeah.
You know, I haven't had In-N-Out since we were roommates.
Really?
No.
Wow.
I have.
Oh.
Okay.
We've had it together.
That's true.
I opened up to you about my childhood.
That is true.
Which was good.
This is such an interesting dynamic to sit in between.
Arasha, tell me a fun story about your childhood.
Let's see.
A fun story about my childhood is, so when I moved to America, and I was like three or four or something.
Kobe.
You okay, man?
I was trying to hit the camera.
I thought that would have been cool. Why? Like Jimmy Fallon in Weekend Update. I see. When you throw the pencil. You okay, man? I was trying to hit the camera. I thought that would have been cool.
Why?
Like Jimmy Fallon in Weekend Update.
I see.
When you throw the pencil.
You're not drunk enough.
That's true.
When I was a kid and my family immigrated to America,
I only spoke Hindi,
and I got in front of my classroom,
and my teacher told me to, I don't know,
introduce myself, I guess, or something,
but I didn't speak English,
so I didn't know what she was saying
and I didn't know what to actually say. So instead I just
started saying the plot of my favorite movie
All in Hindi. What was your favorite movie?
It was called All in Hindi.
Weren't you listening? Sorry.
I apologize, Rasha. I was not listening.
Yeah, that's okay.
That's why God gave us one mouth and two ears.
Whoa.
And two assholes.
For dual shittery.
Sorry, Arash.
I didn't mean to take your spotlight.
Okay.
No, it's okay.
What actually is your...
Mine comes out like a double helix.
Go on.
Well, it was my favorite movie at the time when I was a kid.
It was my family's favorite movie.
It was this Bollywood movie called Adna's up now
Nah, and I started saying the plot of the entire movie in Hindi
And then when my mom came and picked me up
She was like how'd she do and the teacher was like we don't know
We're not really sure because she just got up in front of the cloud were you speaking in Hindi like three
Oh wow, so like five years ago
Right you can finally vote how quickly did you learn because like at three you can learn english like like you learn languages like nothing when you're three years yeah your biggest accomplishment
is just like whatever yeah do you guys speak any other languages i've tried body you can try harder
body talk body language by toblo i've i often on with spanish my whole life and i just i'm just
terrible at it yeah Yeah. I suck.
You don't suck. I suck.
No, I need to like,
frankly, I need to move to another country
and go through that
and explain the plot of
Forrest Gump
to a bunch of people who don't speak
English and then be like, I need to figure
this shit out.
I could learn Hindi if you give me about pan English, and then be like, I need to figure this shit out. I could learn Hindi if you give me about
panch minute, and then...
Okay. It's pretty good.
I wouldn't laugh at you for saying that.
How about a year from now we do an episode entirely in Hindi?
And then we just see who
learned the best, like Damien and I,
and then you judge, and then we just
do that. I could probably
write you guys up a little script, and you'd be able to say we just we just do that i could probably like write you guys up
like a little script and you'd be able to say it just we just go through it in like a hidden
english kind of way are you still full you're fully fluent i mean i wouldn't say like fully
fluent like i can't write in in the scripture um but yeah like if if somebody else is speaking it
i would be able to keep up with them i would be able to give them directions or have a conversation with them. Okay. Yeah.
That's awesome. I mean,
it's good.
Yeah. No, to know another language is
sick as hell. I would
also describe my relationship with Spanish as
a little on and off. It feels a little
stronger some days than others, you know?
But it always comes in handy.
Si. Verdad.
Did you know what he said?
He said right.
Did you know what he said?
Yeah.
Más o menos.
More or less.
Un poquito.
A little.
Un poquito más.
A little more.
Wow.
I hope our listeners can speak Spanish or else they're going to be very confused.
Well, I'm translating for them.
I guess that's true.
Well, I hope they can speak English as well.
I have a slight suspicion that most of our listeners don't speak English because if they could understand what we're saying, they'd be like,
They'd be like, what is this?
Why is that happening?
They're like, we don't know what pepper is can you move on there was a there was a sorry change the subject really
quick there was a reddit post a while back where someone said that their like grandmother or
someone in japan was uh watching reddit stories to like help them learn it like oh yeah english
i was like that's so crazy.
It's great because I do know most of the
things we say on that are at a
five-year-old, six-year-old level.
So that makes it a little bit easier
to learn. Because I knew
somebody who had immigrated from
Germany and was working as
a friend's babysitter and she would watch Charlie Brown
just to like, because it's for kids.
And Reddit stories is about Charlie Brown level. level right did you guys know that there's um
i'm sure they do it in other places as well but i just have seen the uh hindi versions they will
take like disney channel shows and basically just like recast an ind Indian cast and just change all the names to like make it an Indian thing, but use the exact same plot and the exact same script.
That's kind of awesome.
Oh, it's amazing.
I want to watch these.
So Good Luck Charlie is Good Luck Nikki.
Again, exact same thing.
I feel like that one didn't need to be changed then.
What do you mean?
Like Charlie would be able to be an Indian name too?
Is Nikki a traditionally Indian name as well?
I mean, I guess it can be
That'd be really funny if it's all
It's like, good luck Becky
It's like, okay
Well, I think Nikki is
I'm not sure, but it can be
The shorter version of Nikita
Got it
Cool
I did suspect that after I said it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What was Hannah Montana?
They had to have done Hannah Montana.
I don't know.
I know they also did Sweet Life of Zack and Cody
because it's the sweet life of Kabir and Kumar.
That's fucking awesome.
I think so.
Sounds...
Hana Kashmir?
Maybe.
Maybe.
Maybe, yeah.
That's so funny.
And how many seasons
Did these go
The whole show
They literally just copy it over
That's fucking awesome
It's awesome
We should watch
I would be so down to watch
100%
It's so fun
They did do that here though
They call it Muzzy
What
Muzzy
The language learning thing for kids
Oh
I thought you'd get
The Muzzy joke
I'm not sure if it's like
Also appropriately For like To teach at another level kids. Oh. I thought you'd get the muzzy joke. I'm not sure if it's also appropriately
for
to teach at another level.
It's just for entertainment. It's just money.
And they're like, oh, they're making money over in America. Let's just
make this exact same thing. That's so cool.
They did that with the Steve Carell show
that he got famous from. Yeah, The Office.
Britain ripped it from America
and did The Office
over in Britain. Sameollywood does that.
Same with The Bachelor.
Same with, you know, all sorts of stuff.
Yeah.
They rip off.
It's hard to come up with original stuff.
Yeah.
You know, like, we drink coffee, and so Britain was like, we need our versions.
They started drinking tea.
That was.
They always changed the name, though.
The Bachelor became Squibbly Wibbly Pibbly Stibblies.
Patronum.
Yeah, and we had the Food Network,
and they're like, great British bake-off.
Mm-hmm.
You know, that's totally ripped from us.
Yeah.
We had the Food Network,
and then they just took all of Indian cuisine
from an Indian food show,
and we're like, this is British food that's good.
Right.
They're always like, British food is good,
and be sure to check me out at MCM London Comic Con.
Yeah, after talking that shit, they're not going to let you in.
Okay, I've been alerted that it's been 60 minutes.
And that means the game is over.
All right, let your laughs out, you guys.
All right.
No, I let them all out in the middle of it.
All right, Selena, what is the tally?
You laughed four
times. Loser. Barely.
I just gave it to you so I didn't look like a
cone-stoled bitch.
Cone-stoled cream cream.
I could go for some fucking
Teddy Glam's and a sweet cream.
And those count.
Go ahead and lock them in.
We're done.
They don't count. They don't count. No, those don't count. Go ahead and lock them in. We're done. We're done. Lock them in. Yeah, I'll take the water.
They don't count.
How many times have you got 11?
Jesus.
11.
But that's what made the episode change.
If none of us laughed, it would suck, Arasha.
I laughed four times.
I gave it to them.
And Damien laughed three times.
And there were pity laughs!
No, I'm kidding.
Whoa.
Well, you guys did as well as I expected.
Damn, Damien pulling out with the win
by one laugh.
Thank you. Wow.
Well, what can I say?
I'm still going to get you guys treats.
Okay.
Oh, that's right here.
I don't want that.
I really actually don't want that.
See, that's actually why I started laughing, because I didn't want that shit.
There you go.
Yeah, no, we said something worth $5.
That's actually so gross.
I can actually see the hair.
That's so gross.
Comment down below how much you would pay for this.
No.
And if it's at least $5, then I get to give this to Damien.
We're going to auction this off for charity.
Yeah.
And if you are a terrifying person in a basement thinking this is my time,
it's time to drain the bank account
for good. Listen, let me hear it
from all my long-haired everybody's.
This happens.
Okay? You get a little bit of hair in your hair tie.
I will not be shamed
today. That's not the problem. That's not the
problem at all. I shit in the toilet and I wipe
and it's like, oh, my toilet paper, like
everyone does it. It's like like yeah, but you throw it away
or you keep it to yourself.
I keep mine in my pocket.
Well what if I want to show everybody that this is normal
and I want to put my hair out there for good?
It was great having both of you on.
This was awful.
That sucks.
I don't think this was as good as the Spencer episode I'm just gonna say
I was told Amanda would be here
Okay guys we gotta go
Thank you both for being here
And thank you for watching
Get out of here

Somebody wants this.
