Metapause. Yeah, getting hot flashes, feeling nauseous, losing bone density. Oh, such. I was going to say losing bones. Losing bones. You know, just like. A femur just pops out. Yeah.

It happens. You know, menopause is crazy, y'all. Yeah. When my mom was going through it, just like, just little pieces of skeleton everywhere. It's really tough. Mom, did you leave this femur? She's like. Everyone just turns to goo.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. So kids, if your mom hasn't gone through menopause yet, just wait, she's going to turn to goo. You have to call her goo mom. Yeah. You can tell when she is like going through the process or when she's done,

when she's just truly a pink puddle on the ground. Yeah. Yeah. Be careful, gentle with her. Don't sweep her up. Yeah. Don't try to eat her. No.

Well. Because then you gain the powers of the menopause. And then you too will become the goo. Goo. Become the goo. What the hell? And this has been the science podcast. 50th episode of our science podcast.

I think it was pink flowers yeah and it was like a crop top yeah so now we also got a hoodie it's it's got the smosh logo with some very um pretty flowers on it it's as gender neutral as you could tell because i am wearing it you don't have to be a girl to wear flowers same with my shirt my shirt is also gender neutral anyone can say no more boys. That's right. And bye. That's true.

And I believe in it too. No more boys. Thank you. I will, I'll go. Kevin, let's go. Okay. I didn't say no more cool dudes. Oh, cha.

All right, I'm back in. Cha. Dude, you were gone for a while. I was. Mr. Travel Boy. That's why I'm so zen right now. Yeah, who? Oh, my gosh.

Okay, so just give us the lowdown. Where did you go? Who were you with? Okay. So I went with my neighbor and another neighbor. How well do you know these neighbors? And another guy that lives down the street. Pretty well.

Yeah. Strangely, I met my neighbor in Atlanta at an event, do you know these neighbors and another guy that lives down the street yeah i strangely i met i met my neighbor in atlanta at an event and we found out that we lived literally like three houses down from each other oh crap that's la never knowing who you're living around and i never and i never met her before and and then we just kind of hit it off and just became good friends cool and it was her birthday. So she was like, I want to go to Iceland. And then so she knew another neighbor down the street.

It was three of us, all single peeps in our thirties, total play tonic. There was not an orgy, just putting that out there. Emphasis on the play and play tonic. Play tonic. And yeah, it was dope. So we all went to Iceland and had a great time. Any scary things?

Any almost? Any yetis? Okay, there was a scary part. Really? Yeah. Okay. Not scary. Spooky.

Spooky. In Iceland, there's these like turf houses. They're like houses that have like, they put like grass and stuff on the roof. Oh, yeah. So it's like part of the earth. I like grass and stuff on the roof. Oh yeah. So it's like part of the earth. I think it helps insulate the houses. Some of them are like very, very ancient. Okay.

Not like the Hobbit. They're similar. Yeah. Similar. All right. Cute. But there was one house that was built into like a cliff side. We could walk in there.

Like the sign said we could go in, but there was like nobody else around. And like we walk in and it's dark because we're basically in a cave. And before I walk in, I noticed there's like a bone sitting just on the ground at the entrance. Someone having menopause outside of this cave. I know, I know.

How big was the bone actually? It was like- Chicken bone or like a- No, it wasn't a chicken bone. It was something bigger. It was maybe like five inches or something. Penis bone. Penis bone.

Oh no, average penis bone. Well, we don't know what the average size in Iceland. Anyway. Okay, sorry. Anyway, so- Five inch boner, got it. So we went in, it's like really creepy it's like wet and muddy

and we're just like going into this like random cave that's like built and got a little creeped out so we turned around and then we kind of like

walked up the hillside right there and I'm like walking around and like I have a friend that's like walking in front of me

and I look down and I was like oh there's a jawbone and then I look like two feet a friend that's like walking in front of me and I looked down and I was like, oh, there's a jawbone. And then I look like two feet over. I was like, and there's the rest of the animal. Oh my God. What kind of animal was it? It might have been a sheep maybe.

It was hard to tell. It was just this clump of like, I don't know how long ago. So Iceland doesn't have any sort of like predators. Like they have birds and they have the cutest freaking ponies, well they're not ponies technically, they're horses but they're so gosh dang adorable. And they have like sheep and cows and stuff.

So when animals lie, they just kind of go clump and then they're a little skeleton. They go through menopause, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So what I'm confused about is if there's no predators, what was taking this animal apart? Yeah.

It could have been birds. Like what if there was some other tourists and a kid was like, whoa, a bone, this is cool. But like, I'm trying to just like understand what the bone looked like. Was it like flesh? This is so gross. Sorry, listeners. And this wasn't like, it wasn't a skeleton of an animal.

It was still all fur and everything. Is there any kind of scavengers in Iceland? I mean there's birds, so I'd imagine, you know, maybe they're picking away at it, but it was like the jawbone was like sitting over by itself. And then there's that bone further down. Perfectly in the doorway. Just like right at the doorway. I'm like, I don't know, man, this is some real pagan shit.

Yeah. That's weird. Post in the comments what you think that was. Yeah, please. What do you think that was? Well, you know,

there's always the Yeti, you know, I'm just gonna, I just, my, my favorite scapegoat, Yeti, late Yeti,

homework on Yeti, animal ripped apart on top of a house. Yeti. Got that Yeti. So weird. That's true. That is bizarro. But anyway, any other fun things that aren't

scary? Ripped animals? Did you eat good food? I ate some food. Good! Ian, you ate food! Thank you. Ian! Good boy! Iceland. I forgot. Another animal that exists in Iceland. Reindeer! Is it alive? Is it ripped apart too?

No, I actually saw some they were just they're just chilling uh they're chilling on the plains like they they don't hunt them during the winter so they just kind of know that they're just they could just chill around and then summer comes around they start they start shooting them so they go up into the hills um i ate some reindeer oh literally last night yeah. Okay, so you were stuck there because of a storm, right? Yeah. When did you actually get home? So we got stuck there for an extra day.

Okay. And one of my friends that had been there before was like, oh, we got to go to this restaurant. So, well, another animal that they have in Iceland is puffin. Oh, the little characters in Star Wars that they had to hide? Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Porgs? Yeah, so I ate some of that too. Wow. oh the little characters in Star Wars they had to hide yeah yeah exactly porgs yeah

so I ate some of that too wow feeling feeling how's your tum tum yeah it was pretty good the reindeer was really good

but I'm sure it just tastes anything like venison it was pretty good yeah I've never had deer or like horse or anything yeah I'm a chicky boy

and we might want to cut this one out but he ate a person. Another thing I ate. What? Was whale. And why did you eat it?

Because it was there. We can't eat whale here. You'll probably cut that out. Why? So it's not a threatened species of whale. Uh-huh. It's a mink whale, which is not a threatened species and um i can sadly report

it was fucking delicious i say it's cool that you're trying new things and saying yes to rare opportunities yeah i'm definitely not gonna go eating whale everywhere yeah it's not like this you've tasted blood now you're and it was i did notice you started a change.org thing to uh reverse the illegality of whales yeah yeah so much yeah yeah you've got my signature buddy yeah i got i got your signature i got japan's signature like and we're under arrest apparently japan's signature that just hit me yikes yeah i mean i'm not i'm not for i'm not for you know overfishing of you know whales and stuff but oh boy it was like it was like okay can i explain can i explain whale for a second okay how did you eat it like sushi or like slurp it up like or like grilled

okay so it's a small like piece and little chunk it was cooked medium rare. Had this little thing of a garlic soy sauce on the side. It was cooked medium rare and it was sliced thinly. And the only way I can explain it is it's like steak. It's like a mix between steak and sashimi. Whoa, okay. So it's kind of like seared? Yeah, it was like seared.

Yeah. So it was like squishy, flavorful, meaty. Because it's a mammal. You're like not watering in the mouth right now. Because it's a mammal.

Yeah. It has a brain. Because one of my neighbors was like, she was kind of a little bummed for some reason. And I gave her a little piece of whale and she was like,

Cheer right up. She was like, oh my God. That is so good. This podcast is going to end up like killing the whale species. No, no. We can't get whale in the US apparently. It's not allowed here for a good reason.

I've lived through you. I don't think I'd ever take the opportunity myself to try it. But now that I know that your experience, I'm like, okay, cool. Good to know. So I think it's good. Good knowledge. Then we ate a person. Love that.

Yeah. Jawbone. Yeah, but we've all, we've all kind of. Yeah. It's the ultimate. Sorry. Yeah, for eating a person. If it's a flat or a squeal, a wobble or peel,

It's just kind of funny because when you go to another country, you think you're going to be interacting with the people that are from that place. But the thing that's happened with Iceland is Iceland's only a country of 360,000 people. And what happened is in the last 10 years, their tourism has exploded, probably due in part to Instagram and whale. So they found themselves not having enough people to basically support the tourism industry. So a lot of the service workers, the sort of like the grocery baggers or the waiters or the people working at the hotels,

they're not from Iceland. And a lot of them can't even speak the language. Where are they from? All over Europe. Oh, so just whomever? Yeah. Cool. So it's like, I mean, I think it's easier for like certain people in the Scandinavian countries.

Yeah. Because they kind of have like a, they kind of have their own sort of European Union. We had some people that were from like Romania, like other like random parts, Germany, like other parts of Europe. But it's so weird because like we watched we were we were sitting in this bar it was a big lebowski themed bar wow and iceland yeah good for them it was called bar lebowski bar lebowski that's i kind of like that slight slight tangent there was also and i didn't go in there but there was also a chuck Norris themed restaurant. What was the name? I think it was called Cafe Chuck Norris.

So Chuck Norris, Chuck Norris grill, I think. And it had his, I think it had his face on it. I don't know. I'm back in. Yeah. But I don't understand. I don't know if there's some sort of fascination with Chuck Norris there, or if that's just like,

they're like, oh, there's American american tourists and what do americans like i think chuck norris he is our he basically is the american eagle part two yeah he's got the flag the eagle right yeah i see it but uh we're we're in this bar and then we watch this like icelandic person come in to like the host and they said something to him in the language and the guy just like put his hand up he's like no and stop taking locals no no he just was like don't talk to me like within the business they're like i don't understand that language like hey it's time for break no i don't so then she had to be like she had to be like, she had to be like, uh, waiting for someone. And he's like, okay. Oh my God.

That's, that's gotta be so strange to like, in your, like grow up in your own country. And then, and then like suddenly people are like, no, no, no, no, no, no, I don't. I don't know. English, English, speak English. So that's weird. So then like more people, like the common language is like kind of English, nothing between the countries, English. English. Speak English. That's weird. So then like more people, like the common language is like kind of. English. Between the countries.

English. Jesus. That'd be so weird. Imagine like you walk into your local grocery store and like the first person there won't even let you talk. Russian. Speak Russian. Yeah.

Whoa. That's wild. It's wild and crazy. Well, it's like, cause a lot of countries in Europe, like they require 12 years of english to graduate high school or high school or college yeah i think what was this guy our pole vault assistant coach he was from something near russia or something like that and he he had to learn 12 years of english to graduate just wow just to teach polls just to get out and teach about Poles. Wow. I was bringing up Poles a lot. Was he Polish? No. Nice.

Nice. It was like, it was Ukraine. It wasn't Ukraine? I don't know. That's a place near Russia. Yeah. It was around there. But yeah, they teach a lot more English out there than we do.

Like what? Minimum two years of Spanish to get out of high school. I barely learned English. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, some countries, kids learn like four languages. Yeah, dude, such a talent.

I've been seeing this one person on TikTok. He's been posting where he goes to Chinese restaurants or I think, is he in China? But he starts talking to the people who work in the restaurants in English. I recently saw this too. Yeah, and then he'll all of a sudden start speaking Mandarin to them and the people around them

are like, what? That's great. He's like, what is this? And then they're like, oh, alright, it's this thing. And then he'll be like, whoosh, bang, and just like throw Chinese at them. It's so good. Mandarin rather. Yeah, he's like perfectly fluent. It's awesome. And they're just like, people will just be like, oh, okay. They'll just be laughing

at him. Like, oh, geez. Yeah. But then they'll always end up asking, like, they shouldn't be laughing at him. Like, oh, geez. But then they'll always end up asking him like, when did you study? How long have you studied? And then they're interested in like the education of it all because it's so rare. It's hard work. For Americans.

He's just a white dude. Yep. Like cookie cutter white dude. Yep. That's why it's shocking. Olivia's friend, Sheila, she speaks four languages, I think. So cool.

Like Mandarin, English, and then and then uh german or russian one of those or something so cool dang bro my brain can't do nothing my favorite my favorite part about talking about somebody that speaks what is it five languages is you get to use the word polyglot is that someone who speaks multiple languages polyglot isn't that a word yeah polyglot sounds like a blood condition oh I can't fly I got polyglot

I really want to learn a second language I thought about learning Farsi a little bit because of the previous boyfriend and then I mean I was really good at speaking Spanish especially when I went to Mexico like everything all the memory you had like comes back so So Spanish would be

probably the closest one, but it'd be really cool to learn like Mandarin or like Arabic's hard. And there's so many different kinds, such a big language. I just want to like learn how electricity works.

Like people have been trying to tell me, still, nope. See, what I want to know when you're trying to speak the language in the country that you're in, at what point is it respectful

and at what point is it patronizing? Like if you're like if you go to mexico and you're like um a por favor uh dose uh tacos right that's stupid i think when you're doing that it's like a lot so you take california yeah it's gross but it's like try or it's like when you're if you go to like a restaurant you're like coma sedice yeah just wasting time and the guy's just like

can you please just fucking speak English just say something everyone else that comes here they're not even trying at that point the other night I was trying to meet

Sarah and Matt Robb for like some drinks and I got there and I forgot my ID so I was like crap I gotta go back and then come again and I got into the Uber So I was like, crap, I got to go back and then come again.

And I got into the Uber and I was like, hey, is it okay if we go to my place and then come back here? And he was like, I don't speak English. And I was like, oh, about Espanol? Because I totally would have been able to say, go back to my place and come back here. But he was like, no, Persian. I was like, oh, okay.

I tried, I would have been real proud of myself. You just busted, oh, okay. I tried. I would've been real proud of myself, but. You just busted out some Farsi. Yeah. That would've been, that would've been so cool. Farsi is a big language. That would've been the coolest,

like random thing ever. If you just bust it out something and he's like, oh, cool. Yeah. I feel like it's, it's, there's a,

like a level of respect for someone who has put that effort in or like has, cause some people, they live in multi-language households and they just completely ignore one language. But, and like I had a friend, she was bilingual Spanish, English,

and like her dad would be speaking Spanish or her and she would just respond in English. Like wouldn't even try. And I was like, come on. Dumb. I love, I love hearing,

I love hearing like the different, the different kinds. Because you know about Spanglish, where in a multi-language family, oftentimes they'll just flip-flop between English and Spanish. I've heard Olivia do that with her mom with Mandarin and English. I've heard a little bit of Mari doing it in Japanese and English with her mom. And it's so fun to watch just which words. Yeah.

Because I think certain phrases in English are just faster to say than in the other one. I think that's very cool too. Nice. So fast. So Iceland, a little bit of a culture shock, a little bit of a food extravaganza. Yeah. It's a cool place that uh humans probably shouldn't inhabit because there's no there's there i mean why are we there did you see the

northern lights at all i did wow and and i will say the photos came out incredible but it is not exactly how the photos show it i I mean, I've heard that sometimes it's a little bit more green than what I saw, but what I saw was like, it was like light in the sky. Yeah. It's like, okay, yeah, there's a lot of it and it was really cool,

but it's not like this crazy vibrant green that you always see in like the photos. So the photos are making it more extreme than it actually is. Yeah. That's cool how like light travels in our in our eyes versus yeah we went like because it was it was stormy it was stormy a few times it was cloudy and we there's like an aurora tracker you can see where like the northern lights are most likely to appear and we'd see it like all over iceland we go outside

clouds and we're like fuck and then so luckily the last day the last night we were there the last night we were supposed to be there uh we were we we stayed in this like airbnb out in the middle of nowhere um like kind of like at the like where the last big volcano erupted we were there and it was like 2 a.m and then we were all kind of like about to go to go to sleep and they're like okay just check the check the aurora thing and it was over us and we're like what and we ran out and by the way it's like this is the big storm that's coming in so it's like 30 mile an hour winds hail and we like walked outside and I made the dumbest noise. I was just like, cause like that, that's the one,

that's the one thing that I like really wanted to do. That's like the one thing that I wanted to like go to Iceland. Like that's the one thing I had on my list that I wanted to see was the Northern lights. And I saw a little bit on the plane actually on the way there. That's so cool. Yeah. It was like, it was just kind of had to like look through the plane window, but way there that's so cool yeah yeah it was like it just kind of had to

like look through the plane window but to be there and like see it was was really really awesome uh we took a photo and you couldn't tell that we were like freezing our asses off and trying to not get blown over but yeah it was it was really cool damn nice yeah thanks for sharing all that yeah dude heck yeah But enough about me. Tommy, I see you got that little necklace on with the little ox plug in. Oh yeah, heck yeah. Little music boy.

Little music boy. Tommy, you've been making some music for us, right? Yes, I have. Yeah, so y'all just got back from the tour by the time this comes out. Yes. And yeah.

So I guess I can talk about it, right? Sure. Yeah. Yeah. So Damien had, basically Damien had a little song that you two are a part of. And you both did so well, right? Uh-huh. Fingers crossed.

Yeah. Just like the best performance. So yeah, it was like a musical theater style song. And Finnerty knew from doing the Girls Are Gross remix that I had so much fun making. That I had some music knowledge. And yeah, so I had never done a musical theater composition before. You killed it. That was your first?

Yeah, let alone composition at all. I mean, like I've done, I helped score a podcast a long time ago that they never ended up using any of the music for. But that was my first, like, I'll use, like, a violin synth. And so this was my first time doing something, like, actually like that. Yeah, well, that reaction's good for me. No, dude, yeah, because it sounds amazing. I always think that, like, wow, we've really been sleeping on Tommy. And, like, you seem like you have a ton of experience.

I mean, you surprised us all with the Girls Are Gross remix. And if you haven't heard it or seen like a little video on Twitter, just go check out the Girls Are Gross remix. It's dope. Yeah. It's dope. Yeah. Apparently we're going to be doing some more music videos-y stuffies. Even I am.

I'm like trying to get a piece. I'm like, can you help me make some music? Yeah. What? I want to as well. Yeah. I actually alluded to it on a live stream recently. I was like, yeah, me and Tommy are going to try to make some music yeah i want to as well yeah i actually alluded to it on a live stream recently i was like yeah me and tommy are trying to make some music cool i can't do by myself yeah no and

i can't sing or write lyrics so this is perfect hey look at us hey look at us look at us uh so yeah i mean like do i did i study music not a chance do i listen to music all the time and know how it works? Yeah. I mean, I feel like many people do. And truly like anyone listening at home, if you're interested in music, hop on GarageBand or if you have Logic, God, you know, cool if you do, or whatever system you have that has like a music program,

just futz around in there. It's so easy to learn. And then once you know what you're doing, it's just like, oh crap, I just taught dude four or five years i'd say it's probably most djs yeah most like yeah producers bedroom producers for sure yeah just it's all just self-taught like you don't really need to go to school or go to an art school or somewhere to exactly learn that kind of stuff it's also why there's so many artists making music now is because anyone can do it.

That's what's so crazy. Anyone can do the technology allowing people to do whatever they want. What's your favorite music? Like, who do you like? Gotcha. Okay. This is great, by the way.

Great question. So my favorite producer on the planet is Sophie. Sophie is a amazing trans woman goddess, alien creature person who is- How do you spell it? Sophie, S-O-P-H-I-E. It is just the one name. She made a bunch of really,

I would call them like hyper textural industrial pop experiments. Did I listen to this album? Did you have an album come out recently? Well, Product was the first collection of singles and it's just like, one of the songs sounds like diarrhea at the beginning just because it's bubbly.

It sounds like it would give me anxiety. Yes. It's extremely anxiety-inducing. I don't know if I happen to listen to it. As a little dum-dum with a cute little kiss of ADD, I love music that screams at me and basically incapacitates me because it fulfills my brain in a way

where I'm just like, love it. But yeah, Sophie, when she's making music for herself, it's really experimental. Her second album was really dark and spooky and like donkey gone, kind of stuff. And you're like, it's like dubstep, but rhythmic and not stupid. Sorry it's like dubstep, but rhythmic and not stupid. Sorry, if you like dubstep.

And, but anyway, she also produces pop music for regular people, so regular people. So she's working on Lady Gaga's album right now. She did a collab with Rihanna that never came out. She's done, she's collabed with like Brooke Candy with Charli XCX. Oh, you might know the song, you know Vroom Vroom with Charli XCX. Oh, you might know the song, you know Vroom Vroom Charli XCX?

The- Probably. Bitches know they can't catch me. Vroom Vroom. That's on TikTok. That weird production is Sophie. That's like straight up Sophie stuff. That's cool.

So anyway, that's my favorite producer. She does a bunch of crazy crap, but I just like, every time I go into music, I'm like, what would Sophie do with this? Because she's constantly like thinking outside the box, pushing the boundaries. And at all of her shows, I'm like, what would Sophie do with this? Because she's constantly like thinking outside the box, pushing the boundaries. And at all of her shows, she's like, yeah, I'm tired of my own. Like, she's like, what do you want to hear?

I'm tired of my own crap. What, what do you want? So much fun. That's awesome. If it's a flat or a squeal, a wobble or peel, your dread's worn down or you need a new wheel.

It's like, I don't want to listen to my same crap again. Yeah. I feel like a lot of popular artists like Childish Gambino, Kendrick, and then Tyler, the creator, their albums have a lot more of that experimental,

like crazy random sounds. It's definitely becoming a more popular thing. I love it. I love it. I love music. I wish I knew more about it. I mean, same. I know some stuff, but I still wish I knew more about it. Yeah.

And it's also like, sometimes they make something that sounds weird, but then it becomes the norm. Exactly. Yes. And that's really what's happening. If you've heard a lot of metal clang as like a high hat or something, just like a clang, clang, like as part of the song,

that's a Sophie thing that like got pushed. Wow. So anyway, just keep an ear out for that. I'm really into Rich Brian. Rich Brian, I've not heard of him. Yeah, he used to be called Rich Chigga, but he changed it, because it was a little offensive.

Smart, mm-hmm, yeah. But he's awesome dude, Brian, I've not heard of him. He used to be called Rich Chigga, but he changed it because it was a little offensive. Yeah. But he's awesome, dude. And I'm pretty sure he does a lot of his own producing. And his most recent album has like orchestral type stuff. I don't know if he actually got an orchestra to do it. Maybe. He's one of the 88 Rising dudes. Yeah.

Oh, seeing all of this. Such a cool. 88 Rising, I'm trying to, like, it consists of a lot of, it focuses a lot on Asian artists. Cool. And I'm helping bringing them up. Like, Joji's a part of it as well. Joji used to be a YouTuber.

Same with Rich Brian, I think. Yeah, I couldn't believe recently I'd been following Rich Brian for a while, and suddenly he followed me and dimmed me and was just like, hey, you're awesome. And I was like, what the fuck? What did I do? What did I do? Well,

it was boy trying to slide in. No. Is he trying to slide in? No. Go slide in. Try to slide in. Go slide in. You're doing the weirdest T pose wiggles right now.

Um, I, cause I was like, ah, thanks dude. You're awesome. Like that's the only way I knew how to respond. And we didn't message after that.

I have no idea what provoked this. No clue. And I wish I knew. Did you post about him, maybe? I talk about him semi-regularly. I have a ton of his music on my public playlist that fans listen to, which I'm rearranging, by the way, and making different playlists. So, like your stuff that you like in the playlist while you still can.

It might be gone. But, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah yeah so when you guys hang out no why not because i don't think that's a thing you can't what he dm that he's a legend that means you guys can hang out that means your best friends you can be rich courtney that's not how it works ian yeah rich and then some other word that sounds slightly you know offensive his music is you should check him out i will dude he's an artist it's great cool yeah i'm like um his that's it that's all i feel nice yeah no i think i think this is something i think this is something really fun that we've

we've all stumbled into with your music talents. And I can't wait to see what we make. Oh, I'm stoked. We're gonna put out some fun stuff. Yes. And apparently I can do whatever genre. So I'm whatever y'all wanna do. I guess I know how to do it.

Let's do some clinky pan things. I'd love clinky things. Let's try to throw one of those Sophie clinks into the next song. I will do. I guess I know how to do it. Let's do some clinky pan things. I'd love clinky things. Let's try to throw one of those Sophie clanks into the next song. I will do that. Smosh does stomp the yard. Sweet. Stomp up to the yard.

But Tommy, you were one of the, I don't know if this is a self, if this is a self titled name. I don't know if this is a self, if this is a self-titled name. I don't know if this is a name you guys gave each other, but you are one of the Cave Kids. Cave Kids, that's correct. Is that- I've never heard that term.

Is that like a Burger King Kids Club kind of thing? I mean, it certainly feels like it on a day-to-day basis. Yeah, yeah. The Cave Kids are the post room. Which post means like people who work on the videos and content after it's been filmed right yes sorry just for those we're the mailmen uh yeah so we are the post production we're basically the editors nice and uh yeah so we've got it's very much like every

single day in there so let me explain as you both know because you have eyes and are alive uh our office has the bullpen which is just like a bunch of people working in an open space. There's a little like side offices for like Ian Infinity and like Matt, Rob and Sarah and all these people just have their little like closets. And then the cave is its own little secret hole that has, let's see, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and then freelancer eight. So like eight people in there. And-

It's like a foxhole. It is a foxhole. It is by far the coolest place. We are the coolest people. Sometimes the hottest, sometimes the hottest place too. And sometimes the coldest place. Yes, sometimes the coldest place. It's very unregulated.

Yes, the temperature control in that room can get a little funky. Even the whole office is always cold. Yeah, it's tough when you have a giant open space, you gotta like blast so much air in there. Every day in there feels like, I mean like we're working hard, we're making stuff funnier,

we're cutting out hours of time to make it. Are you saying we're not funny, so you have to make it funnier? Oh no, oh no, oh no. We need them to make us. Oh, you're saying we're not funny, so you have to make it funnier? Oh, no! Oh, no, no! We need them to make us look good, Ian. Be nice. Well, I, me specifically do, me specifically do social, so.

I'm not the one who's saying that, who's making you funny or whatever. But yeah, it's, I mean, Kevin's a part of it. I would say it's very much like a Parks and Rec Veep office type thing where it's just like an ensemble of like rando extreme characters all bouncing off each other. It's really, it's so funny in there sometimes. It gets really wild in there. Do you think that's due to the lack of sunlight into that room?

Oh, that's definitely a part of it. The vitamin D deficiency is... Oh, yeah. No, we're pale little... We can barely see anymore. Yeah, we got to get more D in there. Yeah, we definitely do. I mean, sometimes you can throw a raw steak in there

and we all go... Ravage over in the center. I have thrown random food in there for you guys to ravage. And we do actually all stand up and go, oh, what do you got here? Am I wrong? Whenever I have thrown random food in there for you guys to ravage. And we do actually all stand up and go, oh, what do you got here? Am I wrong? Whenever I have like extra food

or something that I need to give away, I can always count on the cave kids. Thank you. To take it. We, I mean, we have enough people in there. It's usually gonna be me, Spencer and Brittany who are like, hey, I think Kevin too if he's in there, but Kevin's doing seven seven things so yeah yeah yeah i i like to just go in there and just

see the vibes yeah i always feel like sometimes when i go in there people will be like yes i'm like no no no i i'm not gonna bother you i just wanna just want a vibe but uh yeah you know the vibes you know the fucking vibes yeah Yeah. I am a single queen. Rich Courtney. I love it in there. I love just, because you get a taste of it. You don't have to be in there for a few minutes.

You're like, ah, yeah, this is the place. Yeah, yeah. It's cool. Meme Lords in there. Solid. For me, it's all about Spencer and Brittany

throwing out little one-liners that make me like, I'm facing away from everybody. We're all facing away from everybody. Spencer being the editor of Smosh Games, Brittany being our graphics extraordinaire. And she is an extraordinaire at that. But yeah, I'll just like,

we'll be having like a conversation or whatever, or like someone will say something and then one of them will just say a one-liner that's just truly borderline outrageous. And the room has to, everyone has to like pause and like turn around and go like, oh my God. It's just like, just so much fun to have that little bit of like fun break

in your, you know, monotony. That's great. I wonder what that would be like if everyone in circles, they were having conversations and just turn their backs to each other and see what that would be like if no one was looking at each other in a conversation. It is a very interesting, well, should, what if?

Treat, can you hear us? Hello? Hello? I can't turn. Okay. Hello? I can't turn. I wonder if that'd be a cool like social experiment and see if people cut each other off less if they're not facing each other or maybe it's more.

Sounds like a Smosh games exercise. Ooh. Ooh, shall we? We could use that, We could use that. We could use that. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Yeah, because you editors know you have to be splicing up our chatty asses all the time.

Mm-hmm. And cutting out the awkward silences like this one. He's not going to cut this one out. Damn it. Kevin's like, I ain't doing that shit. I just add a minute to his workload just by sitting here.

No, you guys don't have any idea how much more awkward and bad and annoying sounding this podcast would be. Or all of our content. Well, but this podcast in particular would be without Kevin, without his sort of the work that he does on on just even the sound like cutting out like the ew no no minimal amounts of that please i'm sorry what what are you talking about sorry kevin's crying kevin these podcasts are never are never just solid all the way through. There's always something weird or I talk about eating whale or something and then we gotta cut that out.

Yeah, I mean, listening to other podcasts there's a lot lower touch. There's always an audio problem being mentioned or something going wrong. If you weren't in this room right now I don't't know how even even like when in a podcast when somebody pauses for like two seconds oh yeah you're like

you're like hello what the fuck just happened they'll have like 30 seconds where they're like looking for a clip on like tmg which i'm i'm like fine with it doesn't bother me but like we definitely we streamline our stuff very well i mean i, I shouldn't say we because it's literally Kevin. Thank you, Kevin. I think it's very underappreciated how hard you guys work. Like all of the post team. I mean, on every step of our production, I can't be more proud of the team

that I'm working with. Like, because sometimes I see like negative comments of people thinking they understand how a specific system works like you need a better marketing team or you need i'm like you literally that doesn't even what you're talking about has nothing to do with marketing like people just like to say marketing like i can't express enough how much i admire how hard you guys work like god damn yeah i what got me

first into videos in general when i was younger was editing i i would just film random shit just to edit it because it was just fun since this job has taken over i i don't edit as much i feel like i'm out of touch and i can't do it as much and something i feel sad about i miss it i'll just hop hop on back home but But I do Final Cut. I don't do Premiere. Ah, Final Cut's fine. I mean, like, Premiere sucks, too. It all kind of sucks. It was like, Premiere's just like the one that I, like, listen. I did not go, so in college, I was a theater major.

And then I was like, this sucks ass. I hate the people. I hate all of it. So I quit. And then I was a Cinema Studies major, which means Cinema Studies is like, oh you want to film? Okay, you do it.

It's like not intense at all. And so I had one class, one class, one semester class that was like, you're gonna film something and edit it. And I was like, oh you mean film? Cool. So one single class in my entire college career set me up for what I'm doing now. Wow. They taught me Premiere.

They taught me like, you know, how to piece things together and like tell a story and film. So anyway, that was just me saying Premiere was that easy that I just like had one class. Getting like a lesson, like, I don't know, some. Class thing? Like, I don't know. Apple Store offers that sometimes, but that'd be kind of weird. I don't know. Just like shadow one of us one day.

Honestly. Sit behind and watch. Somebody was saying that Final Cut got better. Oh, yeah. Because back when I edited it, I used Final Cut, and then it got really shitty. They tried to streamline it, and then I think everybody just kind of moved off of Final Cut on a premiere.

But then somebody said recently that Final Cut's good again. Yeah. It's. Yeah. I think they like simplified what they did or like found like a middle ground because I was able to like I was using iMovie up until I started working at Smosh. But I was really resourceful because I could do a lot of things that most like I was able to figure out how to do things that you couldn't do on iMovie,

like on it by like janky, weird hacks. And then I was able to move to Final Cut seamlessly. It was like, I could even, all the shortcuts were the same. I love it. I'm still, I'm editing a video right now trying to like do a little life update thing on my channel. And it's just, I'm a little rusty.

You'll de-rust. I'll de-rust. I mean, that's really the thing like and you know with any sort of craft with editing you do just get better

at it as you go and you learn you learn all the hot keys and everything you're like rather than like right clicking every time going cut

and then paste you're like no I'm gonna do I and then I'm gonna do O and then do this and this and that which is ideal when you're I and then I'm gonna do O and then this and this and that. Which is ideal when you're working on a laptop because you do not want to be dragging that.

Well, also you shouldn't be doing that shit on a laptop. I got very used to it. I've done it for years. With the trackpad? Yeah. But I was using mostly keys. Yeah, yeah. Kevin's having a heart attack right now.

Kevin, are you crying? No. I think it's a skill that I'm able to do that. I mean, yeah. iPad never. It's a. I think it's a skill that I'm able to do that. So I've had never. It's a skill, but it's a skill in the same way that running a marathon with your legs tied together would be a skill. That's a damn good skill.

Well, yeah, but you're not gonna be as fast. You don't know. I mean, you can hop pretty quick. You ever tried hopping? Yeah, you ever tried hop? Courtney, hey Courtney, you ever tried hopping? Sounds like a drug thing. Yeah, you ever hop before yeah you ever tried hop corny hey corny you ever tried up sounds like a drug thing yeah i mean you ever hop before you ever hop before yo you guys want to hop after this i got some i got some jinkum in my car what and you took it there sorry i just have i always have to throw back gotta take it there

i always have to throw back to jinkum i don't even know what that word means yeah can we take a moment and explain what that is you want to know what jinkum is okay kevin's shaking his head no what is it just explain it like what you think it is so that was always that was the urban myth of back in the day it was like the urban myth where like did you hear that like there's this drug that people make that, I think it was like, people put their own like feces and urine into a jar and then put a balloon over the top

and then let it ferment. And then they huff the fumes. And that's apparently a drug, but I don't think anyone ever actually did it. It was just always a joke. No, it just smells so bad that you almost die. But it would be pretty funny to convince somebody to try it. Somebody that's stupid enough to do that.

I think that's funny for a very specific type of person. Middle schoolers. Me. Yeah, middle schoolers. Me always as a 32-year-old middle schooler. Oh, true. God damn. That's the next Smosh movie.

32-year-old middle schooler. Because Jenkin was a rumor that was spread through MySpace. That's how old that drug is. Oh. Nice. I could have gone my whole life not knowing what that was. I'm going to do a quick labot afterwards so I don't have to. Just a little.

Give us a quick lowdown. So I told this story on the podcast, but outside because this happened right before I went. Yeah, dude. So what happened was I had to go to the bathroom as one does.

Usually when they're in a porta potty. Yeah, we're outside the vegan street fair and I was waiting for them because they said, don't come in yet. Like, wait a little bit till after we're started. They're talking from inside the porta potty? No,

they were texting me. Oh, gotcha. And I was like, okay, cool. I'm going to walk around. And I saw a porta potty.

I was like, oh, I need to use the bathroom. It was a mess. So I like go and I'm like cleaning it up just so that I can like, yeah,

make it okay. And then I'm like, I am like, I sit down and then the door opens. Oh no. And a guy's like, oh, sheesh, and shuts the door.

Were you pants down at this moment? I was sitting, they didn't see anything, but I was sitting down and- Did you not lock it? I was so distracted from cleaning the shit show, the shit show, literal shit show. Did he say sheesh? He said sheesh. Sheesh.

Which may be- Vegans. I don't know. Sounds like a cartoon man. I feel like they say sheesh when they see a hot girl. Oh sheesh girl. Oh sheesh? Sheesh. Which may be. Vegans. I don't know. Sounds like a cartoon man. I feel like they say sheesh when they see a hot girl. Oh, sheesh girl. Oh, sheesh.

Do you guys follow Summer Ella? She's an IG comedian. She says, she has this guy who goes, sheesh. When he sees a hot girl. No, I'm going to now. Yeah. So that happened and all I did was go, oh. Oh, yeah. Are you a Sim?

Yeah. Oh, a Lebetica. The door shuts. I obviously lock it. I'm terrified. And I'm like, I'm not going to get out anytime soon because I don't want to see him out there. So my heart's pounding. I'm just like, I'm like, just waiting in there.

And then all of a sudden, just the thing, boom, someone just about tips over the entire port-a-potty. Someone was like, hurry up. But there's so many stalls out there. I was like, and I like, and I get out. I'm like, oh my goodness. And there was no crazy person out there. There was just like a couple of normal people standing there being like, oh. Maybe that was a ghost in the vegan street fair.

Oh my God. The same ghost that ripped up your sheep in Iceland. Sheep. Probably. Wow. Oh, sheesh. Oh, sheep. Sheep.

Oh, sheep. Sheep. Sheep, dude. Sheesh. Sheesh, dude. Yeah, well, that would give anybody a panic attack because you're trapped in a box full of shit. And then, yeah, it's a good thing i

was sitting on toilet because i just about shit myself that was terrifying and that that was i was like wow i don't get out much in la because i like that was going in hot you're going to a street fair there's porta potties people i just experienced a lot in a very short amount of time and i was like this is why i don't go out much i just i just walked in on a dude finishing up in a stall he didn't lock the door he didn't go whoa oh no he didn't go oh he was just like he was just like sorry i was like ah very long eye contact he was finishing up he was like i don't know he's doing the jostle was yeah he was doing the jostle yeah he was up he was oh so he was a number one he i I don't know. He was doing the jostle? Was he standing up? Yeah, he was up. Oh, so he was a number one? I don't know.

I should have asked him. I really should have asked him. It's like, I'm so sorry. Before I go, one or two? I was in a rush because, not to throw it back to Iceland, but they don't have a lot of fruits and vegetables in Iceland. And so my poops were not, my poops were not, you know. Regular. Regular.

Regular. And so, you know, I'm trying to get back on, get back on the, get back on the train now that I'm back in the States. Nice. To eat a lot of fruits, veggies,

kombucha, Greek yogurt, all that stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then. Who be calling? Hello? God? God?

Is that you? So. Dude, I have another twist. I was driving back from Calabasas. Suddenly, my body's like, it's happening now. I love that. I love that feeling. It's like gravity is inside you. And I checked the traffic, and it was like 30 minutes to my house.

And I was like, uh, and i was i was with a friend and like we're having a conversation and i was and i was the one driving so i'm just trying to stay as still as possible and answer and like really like i'm like yes yes i agree yep and just trying to keep things as like as like low-key as possible no stressing nothing and i was just like okay i can't do this i can't do this so i pulled off somewhere near somewhere near like where you used to live i've never had this happen before but i went to the gas station and they didn't have a bathroom oh i mean it's kind of a thing i think and they're not very accessible at least yeah they had a sign that said out of

order and i think that was a lie. Cause I think maybe there's, there's like a homeless population around there. So they don't want them using the bathrooms. So it just said out of order. And I was like, I like ran in. I was like, hi.

And I looked over the bathroom. I was like, Oh no. I was like, do you have a bathrooms for customers? And the guy was like, no. I was like,

okay. And I ran across the street to the other bathroom, to the other gas station. And I was like, uh, hi, do you have a bathroom? He's like, okay. And I ran across the street to the other bathroom, to the other gas station. And I was like, hi, do you have a bathroom? He's like, no bathroom. And I was like, what the hell? Oh, no, buddy. And then I looked across to the other corner.

I was like, Whole Foods. All right, here we go. Great. And then I ran in there and that's where I ran into the guy. Nice. And then I took the longest poop in the world. Oh, congratulations. Congratulations.

Have you ever been like shocked and also like really happy with yourself for taking a very long continuous poop? Listen, there's nothing better in the world. Thank you. Than a good BM. I will scream this from any rooftop. Just let me upstairs and I'll do it. Yeah. There's truly long, short, immediate, prolonged.

I'm in for the ride. Listen, when you're finished and you're feeling light as hell, you're like, did I just lose five pounds on top of the world? Every day, my world is frozen until I'm free from my BMs. Love that. I'm just impressed when I can get like a one long one, like continuous, just like, I don't even know how that fit in my body. Yeah.

That's how you know you're healthy. Yeah. It comes out that way. Yeah, dude. That was just all of Iceland pouring out of me. I will say, this is a P story. So the same day that the porta potty thing happened to me, I was like, may as well keep living this LA life.

So I ran some errands after. I remember seeing this dude with like a skater hat on or like a trucker hat, kind of looks sketchy and then like go in before me. And I pick up a prescription. I'm like, oh, I should pee. And it was definitely, I had seen him go into one of the bathrooms.

They're both like,. It's gender neutral. The other one was locked, so I went in that one that he had clearly gone in. Dude literally had to have purposefully peed all over the seat, all over the floor in front. Just happened. I had half a mind to go outside and find him and be like, I hope you don't treat your mother the way you treated that toilet because God damn, that was disrespectful. And I cleaned it up. I thick toweled, you know?

Yeah, I got the bunch of stuff. Someone's got to do that shit and someone who works too hard every day doesn't need to deal with that. And I also had to pee right then. Do you think he like enjoys doing that? Maybe it's like- He didn't seem like that urgent.

Also, when you go to pee, it's the beginning part that's urgent. He didn't need to do all that. He did not need to do all that. Maybe he had to get some calisthenics in while he was peeing. Yeah. Maybe system of a down came on. He didn't see.

There was nothing. Also, he didn't see. There was nothing and also he didn't flush. Oh, come on, bro. Do not disrespect a toilet like that, bro. Gross. I yelled at him in my mind. I imagined that

I went after him and yelled at him and I was like, good job, court. See, I'm doing that right now with my career. Yeah. Good job, me.

You guys got some interior arguments you do? Yeah, I just got my EGOT. Good job, me. Good job, me. You guys got some interior arguments you do? I just got my EGOT. Good job, me. Good job, me. Any brain arguments? Is that what you're asking? Oh, yeah.

When you like fight with someone in your head. Not like your head. Like you have an argument with someone you wish you could have an argument with. I mean, yes. I try not to sometimes. Yeah, not like. Sometimes. I don't like spend my time doing it.

But when those moments arise, like the pee-pee man. Oh, yeah. If I ever see that guy. Yeah, there's some people that I really wanted to just scream at. Just go. In Iceland, because they were going off the trail. And I was getting really mad. Because it was unsafe for them?

Yeah, it's a delicate environment. So they make it very clear that tourists. clear oh so we're stepping on vegetation yeah tourists are not supposed to go off trails and there's these people that you know for for the gram going off like into the grass and like taking a photo and it's like you literally are gonna get the same photo if you just stayed on the trail a lot of people with nice shoes, so they didn't wanna step in like the mud, so they would go like off the trail to like go around the mud.

I'm like, you're- Why are you wearing nice shoes? You're in a volcanic hellscape, just wear appropriate clothing. Yeah, when you go off path, that's when you get snatched. That's when you get lost. No, some people definitely went there just to get Instagram photos like i saw these

tourists uh i'm not going to further describe who they are but they clearly went with very nice clothes and nice shoes just to get the photo at like either the crashed plane or at like the black sand beach. And then they wrap their boots in plastic. Oh my God. I would prefer a boot wrap plastic than going off path and crunching all that cute vegetation. Sure. But that's, that's commitment.

I think they found that millennials will spend money on experiences rather than things. So what you're seeing now is a reflection of that. It's not so much about getting the best car or having the best purse. It's about having the coolest experience that is going to make other people wish that they had as cool of an experience as you.

Exactly. It's not about having the best thing, but having the best time.

big or you hate it or you like doing something low-key do you guys like being spoiled or do you like spoiling other people what do you guys like to do well i've never well i'm sorry if any of my exes are watching this sucks i hope they are but i don't i'm gonna look into the camera while i say this oh my god i don't think i've ever been in love before sorry if i I told you, but I was wrong. That's okay. Hey. But I think, wait, I hope I have told them by now. I might be now.

Oops. What? Oops. Hopefully I told them by now. Oh, geez. Yeah. So we'll see how crazy this is. But yeah.

So yeah. This will, I don't, all of my other Valentine's experiences, I'm like, you got to do the thing. You get the chocolate, you do the om-wim-wim. And then it's like fine. And you know, I don't, all of my other Valentine's experiences, I'm like, you gotta do the thing, you get the chocolate, you do the, oh, mwim, mwim, and then it's like fine, and you know, I don't give a shit. But you felt like you were just going through the paces. Right, so now this time I'm like, wait a minute, I should do something.

So like, I don't know, it might be different this time. Wait, are you saying this time, this time, you might actually love? Yeah. You're keeping this relationship pretty private though. Yeah, for the most part. That's from what I've seen. Yeah, for the most part we just finally

like posted a thing together because it was like yeah and i don't know i don't i don't like posting something unless it's like for real because you know like if it falls apart the next week then you're like well gotta delete that i mean that goes that goes back to the whole instagram thing yeah yeah exactly exactly what about you two um val Valentine's. I feel like it's weird. I have a weird love-hate relationship with corniness. I have a weird thing with dating because it's this weird thing that, like, you're supposed to get together and you're supposed to talk and get to know each other and you might kiss at the end. And that just, like, terrifies me, like, the norms of that stuff. But, like, holidays and things like that, I do love special occasions and i love giving gifts

and like receiving gifts i think that's really sweet and i'm kind of new to it as well i don't want to i kind of want to say this because my ex i got them an apple watch for valentine's day oh and they got me a hair they got a haircut and that was the gift they got a haircut. And that was the gift. They got a haircut? They got their own haircut. Yeah, that was... Where it's like, this is for you, babe. Snip, snip. Yeah. Ew.

Oh, boy. Yeah, that ended. And why did... That ended? It sounds like the perfect relationship to me. He very clearly checked out very early, like months before. I feel like he forgot it was Valentine's Day. And he's like, I got you.

I got a haircut. Do you like he forgot it was valentine's day and he's like i got you uh i got a haircut do you like it this was for you love you no he's very confident about it i have no idea what he said but that's okay which was i think it stung even more because we had a very high standard of gifts for each other yeah like i think our first one one of our first Valentine's. Didn't he get you an iPad or something? He got me a Nintendo Switch one year. That's right.

Oh, my God. I got him an Xbox one year for Christmas. And then, like, one Valentine's Day, I got him, like, really nice Beats, like those headphones. And then he had gotten me a designer purse. You guys were like Kim and Kanye. We were trying to be that bougie life, I think. I'm not like super fixated on that now. I just, I love giving gifts to people.

Christmas is a great time. I'm kind of disappointed with how I did on Christmas with gifts for everybody. It was mostly Smosh merch. But I do, I love giving gifts. And like part of me does like the idea of like necklaces or special things that you can like keep with you and think about them i'm such the opposite with gift giving really i don't want don't give

me a gift and i'm not gonna give you a gift too much pressure too much like standard it's like money involved and then like the last year like no i'm you be you i be me that's it i feel like i'm a little bit in between you guys because you're in a relationship, right? I am. Okay. So I'm just saying hypothetically, you're in a relationship. I am. You got anniversary.

Yeah. You have birthday. You have Christmas and you have Valentine's. Too many. Do you give that person a romantic gift for every fricking one of those no like where do you where do you place the importance that do you place it at their i mean anniversary seems like the most important yes their birthday seems pretty important because you got to care about them for birthday christmas

is always a time for giving sure and you got valentine's day which isn't even a real holiday it's just a thing that was created to you you know, maybe bolster the card company. And what about those people who have like a birthday or an anniversary near Valentine's day? Oh. One gift. Worst. What do you even do? The worst.

Screw you, bad luck, one gift. I think Valentine's day should be less about giving a gift and more about some sort of act of service. Like little smoochies? Little smoochies or hey. Or just expressing love language yeah or hey i cleaned the the room if you know like hey i did this for you i did something yes kevin i was never you were gonna brag about the fact that you you made that you're in love and

you have a wife no wow that's really great wow wow kevin cool it's fine i mean you give your wife smoochies all the time, you fuck. Yes. I wouldn't, if a guy, I will say if a guy was like, I cleaned for a gift. You'd be like, that sucks. Look, I'm saying if they never, but if they never clean and that was something you never, you never expected them to do. Yeah. And they surprise you like, I cleaned everything with a fricking toothbrush.

It is spotless. There is nothing that is out of place. And I did this for you. Yeah, but if it was your apartment and not their apartment, that would be cool. You know what I mean? If they like did a deep clean of your own apartment. She'd be nervous about that. She'd be like, wow, but what did you find?

When did you find it? For me, I think it's like, all right, Valentine's day, cute little kissy, who cares? Just like a sweet little boop. We know we like each other, yay. Christmas is like the, or the holidays I should say, is like a sweet, long lasting, like a tender, like, gift. The anniversary is like, you take them somewhere.

There's like an event, there's like a thing that's like romantic and it's not like a physical, like here's an object where a birthday is like, this is stupid, you're gonna laugh your ass off. This is your fun birthday gift that's how i would like i like that but remember no gifts please and you're not gonna get one from me that's that's interesting that's that's a that's a freeing agreement because it's like even if someone who likes giving gifts will be like all right yeah me and my best friend on

the planet we have never given each other any gifts ever because we first started off we're like i'm broke you're broke screw it yeah nice yep i mean yeah i think valentine's day is fucking stupid i hate it it's dumb and i was able to give those gifts because i was either still living at my dad's not paying rent or paying very little in rent gifts are just i will i will spend every penny i have on gifts if i can because like like whether it's christmas or family and shit that's your love language it's actually not it's not it's something I love doing for other people but I don't like I'm not like he didn't get me anything it's like but you got him an apple watch and he didn't give you anything you seem pretty beat up but after like and it was it was a special occasion like if we had already if like say you have your agreement no gifts yeah we kind of had this thing where we got each other gifts to like show how much we cared about each other.

Which I like, that was just, that was the thing. And also I don't want to like talk too much shit on this podcast about previous relationships, but like didn't get a whole lot of any other love language. You know what I mean? So like that was kind of the thing, I guess. Fuck it. Just leave it in. I don't care. You know, since we're on the topic of, you know, saying fuck it to some things. Oh, yeah.

Let's move on to our cancel of the week. Oh, yeah. Yes, yes, yes. What I'd like to cancel is wax figures. Who thought wax figures would be a good idea? They're not real. Nope. They're not real people,

but they look like the real people, but not quite. Mm-hmm. They're soulless. Mm-hmm. Somebody decided that this could be a business. Yep.

Where you, it's not the actual celebrity. It is a facsimile of the celebrity. And sometimes they're very poorly made. Sometimes they are very poorly made.

Mm-hmm. All the Beyonce's out there. Jesus. Yeah. Not Madame Tussaudss but one of the wax museums had a jennifer lawrence head on a lucille ball body and i'm talking old lucille ball no so it's jennifer lawrence's cute little young head on like this like like old lady body it was the funniest thing on the why i don't know but anyway yes i agree let's cancel yeah also house of wax

terrifying movie terrifying oh see I can't watch that. That freaks me out. Parasylvan just killed me. Uncanny Valley stuff freaks me out. Oh. And that's what it is. It's really the Uncanny Valley. The Madame Tussauds wax figures of Anthony and I,

they did a pretty good job. No. But they're out there being abused, right? But I think the issue was I wasn't making an animated enough face when I did it. So my guy looks just like a little strange. A little dead? And Madame Tussauds, what did you do with our wax

figures? Because somebody sent me a photo of my wax figure and it's missing Anthony. And I'm now I have a VR headset on my head. So he can't tell it to you? I don't know. And I don't know what he's doing. So Madame T madam tussauds hit us up yeah i want my deal with that with your likeness being

used like that i don't know but if you guys aren't using it as it's to be used i want it back i want him and i want to take it and let's make some scented candles out of it no i want in my house i want to scare people with it actually that's a good security system that is pretty good he's against the wall right by the. Right by the window. Yeah, right by the window. Put that smirk on his face. They're like, huh? So yeah, wax figures.

I don't know who thought it would be a good idea. I understand. I guess it started in, I think, the 1800s before photos were popular. So you wouldn't have any way of knowing what Abraham Lincoln looked like or the Queen of England looked like. Because you don't see photos. You might have seen them in passing once, or maybe not at all. So you're like, wow, that's what they look like. Abraham, there was some photos,

but still even then they couldn't get certain things. But nowadays we all have social media. We all have the internet. We know what Beyonce looks like. We don't need this creepy puppet weird thing, but I guess it's good enough business. Enough people want to know and they want to, you know,

be freaked out. So wax figures canceled. Canceled. Remember the creepy wax museum at Bonnie Springs? Yes. That one had a little Abraham Lincoln. A little one? Little guy.

He just was oddly like smaller. I think we got a curse going through that place well it did burn down hell yeah bonnie springs burned down nice did it burn down yeah that's real good went out of business no well yeah that will go that will put it out of business there there animal there's yeah it was a yeah it was a little depressing courtney what are you canceling what are you canceling court i have to cancel something too? Yeah. We all got to do it. Ooh, messy peers. I'm canceling.

Sorry. No, you're not a messy peer. Me? I'm exposing you. Messy peers or messy peers? Messy pee peers. Oh. Dude, I'm so done with people disrespecting a bathroom that clearly other people use.

And just clean up after yourself. It's not that hard. Like, my God, what if your soulmate was behind you in line? What if your mom was behind you? What would your mom think of that? If my kid did that to a toilet and I saw, I'd pick him up by the ear. Be like, ding-a-ling-a-ling. Ding-a-ling-a-ling.

Use you to clean the toilet. But then I'd have to wash my child after. They dry out. Yeah. Let them deal with that. Be like, now you're the toilet.

How do you feel? Now you have gonorrhea of the eye. Messy Peter's a canceled dude. Canceled. I'm okay with that. Yeah, same. I don't understand that.

Just like lift the freaking toilet seat at least. Yeah. What's wrong with you? Who raised you? Shame on you. It was literally like so much on the floor right in front of the toilet too.

People's shoes are there. Splish splash. Maybe he just had sex. It gets a little, you know. Kevin just looks exhausted by the statement. All right, Tommy, what are you canceling, Tommy? You know, just. It's all right.

I guess I will cancel people who walk in a wall formation. I'm talking one or two or more people. Okay, my body is mostly leg. I know I disguise it well, but my hips end right below my shoulders. You got that comic book body. Hey. You're like the Kirby with legs.

Yes, exactly, with the Bayby with legs yes exactly with the bayonetta legs so i walk my stride is really long i walk really fast i also have like a base level of anxiety and like addiction to stimulus aka i drink a lot of coffee so i'm like always rushing and when good stride going yeah and when people are like and they have their like partner with them or like their kid i'm, just be aware of your surroundings. And so I guess I'm going to summarize this as people who don't have an awareness of their surroundings are canceled. I'm over it. You're out.

Especially when they're walking on the sidewalk. Or anywhere. Really, the mall is the worst place. Yep. because it's like the entire family goes and they all decide, let's all walk in a chain, an uninterrupted chain and cover most of the walkway and we'll walk as slow as possible. Yeah. It's always sad when like,

cause I learned from my mom, like especially going through Disneyland had a fricking beeline through people. But when you're with other people who like are like a little more unsure and like you gotta like kind of lead them, but also, and so you're with other people who like are like a little more unsure and like you gotta like kind of lead them, but also, and so you're just like,

and they're just like, oh, what's that? Yeah. What's that? Which they're probably enjoying their day. We gotta, yeah. That's unacceptable. We need to get places. We got things to do.

Yeah, they should have other separate walkways for people who are just enjoying their day. Dummy look, look, look. Why are you walking slow in a mall? We're just here to do commerce. Yeah. And get out. Let us commerce and leave.

Cha. Like, what is this, a theme park to you? Cha. Cha. Cha or nah. Cha or nah. Guys, cha or nah. Cancel the week.

Cha or nah. Canceled. Cha. So this week we've canceled wax figures uh messy peers and people that aren't aware of their surroundings correct i think that's that's great uh also i'm just gonna say shoot dude shoot dude or sheesh dude sheesh dude dude to our new merch oh don't forget it shout out very excited smosh.store baby got the Academy of Weird Sounds shirt as well.
