It's my birthday. And so we're doing a birthday stream here today. Decided to do that for today's show. And that's what we're going to be doing. It's funny because this clip, I saw this this morning, Samuel Rich, Christian Rhoff, I don't like to ever announce and celebrate my birthday. Also, Christian Harlew.

Tush, Samuel, you clever little fart. Well, today I decided there's really not a lot going on in the world of movie news. So I decided let's do a show about the shoot the shit, have a conversation, Q&A, all that and more with you guys. And that's the kind of show we'll do today, celebration with you, because you guys are here each and every day with me. And so I figured why not do that? So I'll tell you a little bit what's going on in my life,

things that are happening with me. And again, you can ask me whatever you want today. Let's have that kind of conversation. So here we go. This is the first time I'm doing this today. It's Christian Arloff Show. Here we go. Welcome back to the show, everybody.

It's Christian Arloff Show here today on my birthday. Appreciate it. Joined by all of you who are here and I really appreciate it. It's fine. I was going to do some stories. And one of the things I was kind of going over is there is nothing to talk about today in the world of moving this. I mean, Jeremy Irons joining Highlander, great. Happy to hear it.

I'm not going to go into great depth about it. I'm excited. I think he's amazing and I think he's going to help the series. Mandalorian and Grogo trailer isn't the flop to think it is. People are saying, let's wait until it comes out. I don't care. Don't want to talk about that. Scream 7 logo has been revealed.

In 2026 release date, there's a cast set for Young Frankenstein and a new trailer for Germinal Torres Frankenstein, which I haven't seen. So absolutely nothing to talk about in the world of movie news. Absolutely nothing. So we're not going to be talking about a lot of movie news today, unless there's something inside of the actual questions that are coming in later, that you guys want to talk about. But I figure we're doing a podcast today.

We're going to do a full-on show where just kind of talk about everything kind of going on, things that have been going on. What's this? Well, my little one, she made me a little gift this morning. She woke me up. It was the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes there was my little one saying, happy birthday.

It was really nice. So she and I hung out for a little bit morning, waiting for everybody else to get up. My oldest is getting over a cold. So she was just kind of crashed out. My wife got me some stuff. Got me this Yankee hat. almost didn't wear it because of the embarrassment of what they did last night.

You cannot have the bases loaded in a game at home against the Red Sox down by two runs. Bases loaded. You have some power up there and you get nothing. Even if they were to lost three to two, I would have okay with that. But come on. Absolutely atrocious. Absolutely atrocious. So I said, you know what I'm going to do?

Today I'm going to just have a conversation about whatever the hell we want to talk about. I've been wanting to do kind of just, I did a few of these kind of shows. the last couple of Wednesdays, and I just kind of bullshit with you guys. I like that. I like doing that. And if we have just some things that are going on in general with my life and things that are happening. And I've talked about the project and the pilot where that is.

People have been asking for updates on that one. Well, the updates are as followed. Martini and I are working on this. and she just did the follow-up to the notes that we had and put them together. We sent it off to the producer and director. They had just right before we did the stream, let me know that they got it. So hopefully we have something on the books. Next goal after that is to go over the cast of what we're aiming for.

The people that we want to shoot the movie, then realistically what we think it's going to take monetarily to make that, and then we're going to set our Kickstarter. And then we're going to try to put that into play, try to shoot that in Los Angeles. So that is what we are, that's what we're doing. So it's going to be exciting. Now, someone I mentioned this beforehand, too, someone wrote to me yesterday and said that the link for the Amazon list isn't working.

Well, I updated it. This is the only the last time that it's on the, I promoted it all, obviously, because today is my birthday and I'm not going to talk about it afterwards. but somebody and as somebody and I thank some people we got a we already someone got me in the backpack somebody got me the deodorant somebody got me some glasses coffee a baseball glove you guys are the best very kind to you so I did pin it in here today it's in the descriptions it was the last we have of it but it's there and we'll discuss um anyway what was I going to say something else yeah there was just no there's just the news in general right now as far as movie news goes it's

It's just like, who cares, right? And today's the day and Wednesdays, and I talked about this last week, I thought to myself, that maybe we don't do Wednesday shows anymore. But then I said, I don't know. For now, why not just do this type of show? I like coming on here and just talking, you know, and to be like, and I really hope that when you guys are putting

the things in there and the questions and stuff today, that you can ask about whatever, whatever it is. It could be movie news. It could be, you know, comedy stuff. It could be, whatever. Life, I don't know. Let's talk. I'm down to talk.

I had somebody this morning right, me on, I forget what platform it was, but they were talking about how they wanted to, how they wanted to lose some weight. And they're asking as far as diet goes on what I've been doing. I mean, I'm literally, like, during the break, I won't do this on the air. It's disgusting. I have a chicken breast.

I mean, but I've been trying to, like, cut back on certain things. And tonight, I'll, you know, go off. the grid a little bit because we got um doing like a little dinner nice so i'll be doing that um and uh and that's it i'm pumped pumped to be here with you guys pumped to do shows like this pumped to just kind of whatever just talk about things um it's hilarious i wasn't even normally i do pay attention when i'm looking at the chat but i was in the middle of that riff and and never i told what did i tell you guys yesterday on the show. I said that I told you that no matter what, every day my wife will call me at 12 o'clock

ever, I've told her so many times that I go. You said your show is it two. I never said it was at two. I said it was two. It was two. You're live right now, by the way. And two was like maybe six months ago. When you, okay, every time I call you, if I call you at three, you say, my show is at three. If I call you a two, no, I'm shooting. So I'm shooting at three. The show is at 12. So now the show's at 12? It's been at 12 from months, months. But it used to be, it used to be a 2.

It was at 2, like 5 months ago, yeah. Okay, so you didn't tell me when it switched. That's your bad. But you've called me at 12 o'clock, Manny, how many times over the last, you know, two months? And I've said, well, I can't do them. I'm about to do the show. I just hate texting so much. It takes so much more effort.

Use voice text. It doesn't work. They put the wrong words. She puts the wrong words. She's an idiot. She is an idiot. This is true. What do you need for me?

Anything you can talk about on air or no? Yeah, it's nothing dirty. I'll save that for later. Nice. See? Look at that. That will get us a lot more views. Got to be careful.

I've got to tread lately on that. That's true. What do you got? Spit it out, with you? This is very, very, gee. I need to know. you want a birthday cake. Oh.

Because I need to order it. Let's get the red velvet. Let's go red velvet. Red velvet? Yeah, let's do it. Hell yeah. All right. Okay.

All right. Bye. Peace. So there you go. Perfect. See? And now we got a, we got birthday cake. Got other things.

Doing good. It's hilarious because I'm when I was doing the, I will say it's funny because we make those Paris and. her and I too. I was trying to get her to go to the after the hunt thing because like she very much looks like Sadie there. I mean, she does and Sadie even said it too. It was funny. She gets it. She gets it a lot. But it was pretty funny. It was a good, it was actually really good. It was a really good press conference, man. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it. You guys are already. Look, I think yesterday Roxy had like 80 something,

which I think she said, I'm probably going to wind I'm losing today. And that's okay. Birthday, I like that. What else? I'm so excited to see all your comments. I'm excited to read all your comments. Let's do,

hey, and listen, I'll stay on. I got to do a video with Steph today. And like 2.30. So I can at least stay on until 2.30. If you want to stay on you, and we're doing that. We're talking. I'm down.

I was going to do this thing today because I was, I can't remember who it was. But we're talking about like, well, so Mark Ellis, and I guess I'm thanking him here, but I'm also going to call him and thank him. He helped my wife put together a video with all the people who couldn't make it to L.A. to come out and celebrate.

And, you know, Roxy and Winston and Kaiser and Smets, and there are tons of people that were, that made a video. And it was a really nice video. And Smets was talking about how he was getting inspired and starting to work out and everything too, and I was happy to hear it. And it's, it has become a thing. And this is for a lot.

And I think that I've talked about this, at least I talked about it on the last Tron video, but nobody watched that video. So you probably didn't see it. Ming, who is the whole reason that I was able to get myself in shape and everything, too, because he's been going to the gym for the last 25, 30 years, whatever was. And he is, he knows it very well as far as I guess, almost like a science. He's going to start doing a, um, well, he probably will start a YouTube channel, but he's going to start doing kind of virtual

um workout sessions with people too. And I think what he's going to do is once he signs that up and I'll make sure that I announce it here that for the first like 10 people that sign up, like I kind of discounted rate, but I'm not like, Ming is like man. And he's also made it for me like I want and I'll be completely honest when I started going. I mean, well, I've made a commitment to my friend that I would be there. But like there were times I'm like, okay, I got to work. Should I skip today and not do legs and do this? Should not. And then he went out of town at one point when I was still working out with him every day when the show was at two. And I was working out with him and he was going out of town.

And I didn't know all the routines and I was intimidated by the gym still. And I'm like, I'm not going to go. I'm not going to go. I'll just wait until he gets back. If I miss a day, then that's fine. And I said to myself, no, I can't do that. I have to like actually figure out how do I find the confidence in this. I'm understanding I'm doing this for my better health.

all that and I just kind of committed to it. And now, now I get antsy if I miss. Like I almost went today because I was going to, because usually I'd go Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday. And I was going to take off today. I usually take off today, but I was going to go today and take off on Friday because I got to shoot something with Sam in the morning. And I don't know if we're supposed to shoot interstellar.

So, and I ask you guys this. This is, this is a question for you guys because you go, because you give me shit sometimes when I'm not here. Would you rather me push Sam, do Interstellar next week and get it out, you know, either next week or the following or, or shoot the interstellar reaction with Sam and then have Chris and Winston host because it's a three hour movie. It'll, and if she comes here at like 10 o'clock, it'll go until one. And I'll miss, I'll miss capes. So I'm curious what you guys think about that. And that's why I ask you guys your opinions.

And it doesn't just have to be, I mean, obviously live people get the priority here because they're here. But the, but I'd like to get the opinions of people on the recording on the clips on whatever it might be. I don't even know how many clips we're even going to do for this show. I really, no, nothing. What, what are you going to clip out? I don't even know. So everybody's saying let Chris and Winston host, probably going to do that. I'll probably do that.

But I need you guys who are here today. All right, let's make a deal because everybody seems to be doing. Let's let's do, let just let Winston and Chris host. And I agree with you all. I need a deal from the people are here right now. When people start bitching about it that I'm not there on Friday, you tell them that the people that are here today had the say. And we decided together collectively that this is how we were going to make this work.

Can you can you promise me that? If you can promise me that, let's then. that'll be the deal. I like that deal. Because next week, I got to take, I'm taking off on Thursday because there's a medical thing happening in the family, nothing serious, it's all good. But I have to, I got to do that next Thursday. So I got to see if somebody can host with, or Steph can host.

I don't know, I got to see. Okay. Let me do this. I, you know, and this is, this is damn, damn true. I got a gift. And a package today from True Classic, and it was like Christmas. I had a whole bunch of new shirts. I got a whole bunch of new, I got jeans, longer sleeves.

I mean, I'm in, I mean, I am in love with this brand. I am in love with True Classic. I really do. I think that they're extraordinary. I mean, I love this shirt. I got, you know, I got the black T-shirts. I got the white T-shirts. Those I've been wearing a lot of them.

That's, sure. but the jeans, boxers, sweats, I mean, I got a ton of shit today. It was great.

So I'm going to tell you a little bit more about True Classic. I really hope that you take advantage of it. Good gifts, too, by the way. And Nutrafall, and then that'll be it for our wonderful sponsors today. So let's talk about both of those. But I got to tell you,

Anyway, links are in the description. By the way, on my birthday stream here today. And we're going to start getting into diving in some questions and conversations and other things. Someone just bought me a bag of coffee off the Amazon list.

thank you. Once I get the notes, I'll thank people on ear. But someone had already got the kicking course coffee that I had. The ground, the people know I love my coffee. And then somebody else got another bag of coffee off of it. And that's very nice. Very kind of you. So whoever did that when I get your note, and I'll read it out in the air. Again, thank you for everybody who's contributed on the Amazon list. Very, very kind of you.

Let's just jump into some stuff. Sarah. Hi, Sarah. How are you? She became a YouTube member. I'm happy to hear that. It's a good time to do it. Got a lot of the unedited reactions that are going up, member streams, tons of stuff.

Good time to be a member or a patron. I'm going to put my glasses on so we can see and talk to everybody. That's hot stuff. Jamie Rell. Hey, Jamie. Happy birthday, Christian. Happy birthday. Thank you.

I was going to say, happy birthday to you, Jamie. I don't know. and when your birthday is, but when you do have a birthday, happy birthday. Let me just tell you that yesterday, your audience is all middle-aged old white guys. And we debunked that quick as we went through the analytics and showed the ages of it. First two questions.

Sarah, Jamie, just saying. Hey, Mr. CJ became a YouTube member. Very happy about that. He follows it up by saying many happy. returns. Thank you. Thank you. Again, use this time, guys. We got a, we're 27 minutes in. We got a full Q&A. Whatever you want to talk about. Let's discuss. It can be about some old school shit and be some new school shit. I really would love to hear opinions on your thoughts on what we're doing with the pilot. If there's things about the TV show that you want to talk about,

that would be a nice birthday present so I can give you very passionate about that. Very excited to start talking about that. Hey, Mr. CJ, finally can't wait to see some exclusive shit. McLean, us, welcome to the party, pal. This is. is the place to go. I'm telling you, there's a lot of great stuff on the members. Now, this is, I don't know how to pronounce this guy's name. Ojos en peace, jozsos can peace. I don't know how, did I say that right? Jojon can peace, who says, I've never heard of you before, just discovered your channel, and I think you might have a future doing this. I appreciate that.

You sound like you might actually do it as well. I'll just say as long as you're from the States. You don't need any more people from, you know, other places with leaves as symbols. So hopefully that's not your, you know, but you don't look like a good Canadian kid. You look like somebody else. All, all thoughts, laughs aside. Thank you. Very kind of you, sir. I hope you doing well.

Very nice you to drop in. And yeah, we got to, it's funny is at this point of time, you could probably, you know, if you are watching right now, probably not, I probably just jumped in to do a thing because he's got his show coming up. up not for a little bit, but if you are watching, text me out through. I'll send you a link, you pop in, but I don't even know if he's watching. Aiden Norris, happy birthday, Christian. Good luck to the Yankees today.

Yeah, they need it. Can't leave the bases loaded like that again. Nope, you got Aaron Judge or Calerrelli for MVP. I know they don't really judge it on the playoffs, but they should. He judge doesn't really show up too much in the playoffs. He's good single. He needs to show up today. but it's going to be tough to beat Cal because they usually go to the catchers,

especially if guys cranking 60 home runs. And even though he hit 250, I personally, I think Aaron Judge, coming back from injuries and almost hitting the average that he did and consistently doing it again, maybe it's a bias, but I would say, I would say, Judge. Kenneth, happy birthday, Chris. Thanks for inviting me to Shmobile all those years ago. I'll never forget. Thank you for being a part of it.

Thank you, I'm glad. I love all the cross all right. So it still amazes me to be completely honest with you guys. I do like these posts on the community tab sometimes. And I, you know, we've got, we brought in a whole bunch of new subscribers and new people in from the, uh, reactions and things. And, um, so I always want to see how people found us. And it's amazing that in the comments, the stuff. the stuff from, again, speaking

to John, whether it's appearances on John's show or doing Schmovill or Schmodeon or people still stuck around for as long as they did. And there's a lot of old school people here. So I really appreciate it. Very much so. RQ. M.D.S.M.D. Happy birthday. Best wishes Christian. Have a great birthday.

Thank you. Very kind to all of you guys today. I like being here with you. Do me a favor of all of you guys. If you're putting questions and you're putting things in that, of course, so appreciative of whether you popped into that Amazon list or whether you throw in a birthday wish. But throw in a question. Let's talk.

If you're going to throw something new, let's talk. Like literally whatever you want to talk about today. I mean, that kind of mood. So might as well. Let's have a chat. A Chizat? No one says that anymore. Alex became a YouTube member.

Thank you, Alex. Andre. Alex goes, happy birthday commercial. Thank you, sir. Congratulations on a great new in New York. And you're working on camera and behind the camera. Keep those games going. Cheers, my friend.

You're one of the most supportive people I know. You and your lovely wife guys are the best. I'm so happy that Schmodeau brought you together. It's amazing. I saw your message also. I don't know if I'm going to, I have tickets to Comic Con. My oldest wants to go.

Again, it's just a matter if I can get there for at least one or two of the days. I'm trying to. But we'll see if I can make it. So maybe I'll see you there. Maybe I won't. I don't know. My man, starting from. Hope you doing good, brother.

Starting for a year. He goes, happy birthday. Hope you see you all in January. That's the goal. That's what we're trying to do. I think I gave you that one day we're looking at. I don't know if that works.

Patrick Stewart has become a YouTube member. Listen, people joining us as a membership? Again, what a nice gift. What a nice gift indeed. Thank you, everybody, for doing that and more. Okay, let's see.

Patrick Stewart. says happy birthday christian thank you hope you have an amazing birthday i am patrick my birthday's on sunday happy birthday falls an awesome time for birthday yeah it's true because the other thing that we're going to do is um you know like today was more or less i knew i was going to be working i knew so like i said 1230 right now we're doing the show when we wrap up the show um i'm gonna hop on a a video with staff we're going to do predator i think we're going to do predator too i was going to jump into the arnold movies now but it might as well finish with predator too um and then And after that, I'm probably going to go.

And my little one's got some, I got softball today. So we're going to do, we're going to do some, I'll go to the practice. And then after the practice, we'll do a dinner. You know what I mean? And that's, and it was, that's a nice, that's a nice day for me. But as far as celebration, we're like friends and stuff too, we're going to go out on Saturday night and do some stuff on Saturday night. So it's kind of like a two-porter. Corn, emperor.

What's up? Happy birthday. Thank you so much. I appreciate that. I'm getting to the part of the show when I started. It says, everybody's telling me I don't have sound. And there was no audio, no audio. And I'm seeing it now.

Unheard, Sirens Incorporated. Happy birthday Christian. Be cool like Luke Skywalker, Mother. I have now shave your head and go to sleep. That's so funny that that's the one that stuck with so many people. It's hilarious. It's so funny. I'm looking at 1202, and I know that there's no sound one on for like eight minutes. So I can't.

It's hilarious. But I just heard the show open, but now can't hear you again. So you did hear the show open? How did you hear that before? I'm so clear. I'm so curious. And now, Mike, happy birthday. Nepal is the country thinking of that rioted during social media being cut off.

It goes deeper than that's a crazy story. That's right. It was Nepal. You're right. I saw that on the chats yesterday, too. this is funny by the way broke that's all that when birthday he doesn't know he uses a computer no is the stupid i i know what happened and somebody yesterday wrote to me and said um you know that um they asked me

because i mentioned that the roadcaster was given us an issue and the roadcaster yesterday and not the roadcaster itself stuff that happened with settings and other things cost to me about two days of work. So what happened on, what was yesterday? Yesterday was Tuesday? Yeah. So on Monday, I was trying to record two more episodes of Demon Slayer with, or four episodes of Demon Slayer with Winston. And so went on Riverside. And I was doing something and I was recording it. And normally it's fine. You can hear it. And there was like an echo on it. And I couldn't figure it out for the life of me. Brett wasn't around. Luke wasn't around. No was around to to check the settings on this thing.

I started looking around to it because I had never had an issue with it. And then there was something on Roadcaster I pushed. And then I couldn't hear him, couldn't get the thing working. And I was like, okay, it was too much time. We had to cancel Demon Slayer or whatever it was.

So it was like this whole thing. And finally, I got at least my thing was working. I could hear him. At least I can record from now. I'll have to reschedule Wednesday. So yesterday, Tina comes in to do John Wick three.

She's sitting here. And normally that we got to do these reactions is it'll be up on the screen. Video's up there. We can hear it, but the audio, you can't hear. You're not supposed to hear the audio. You're supposed to block that out. So that way, the editors can then place the stuff in. It doesn't bleed over.

It's happened a couple times, but it's not good for copyright and other things for that. So I'm like, okay, I can hear the movie. It's not registering on the OBS. That's good. And it's like, I can't hear it. And then I go, what have I hit this? And she's like, I can hear it. I can hear the movie.

I was great. I can't hear it. So we're trying back, like, this is going on for an hour and a half, two hours. Finally, Tina has to leave, so lose that movie. And Brett got on the phone with me trying to make it work forever. Magic Man Luke gets on the phone within, I don't know, five to ten minutes. Fix something on it.

He now works fine. But that's kind of where that's what happened. And then what I think would happen, I reset the system at one point. And I think that that stream yard disconnected it on the audio because of it. So thank you for letting me know. but now sound is is back. Some of these comments are very funny, literally talking to himself.

He was getting older. I was having full conversations. I will say this and I was proud of myself. Most of the stuff that I said on the re-introdu is like all the stuff that I said. So is this a bit? I know. I was muted for quite a long time. Quite a long time.

Look, you're definitely going to have to cut that out, I think. Let me see. Let me see if he... I got some people texting me. So, let me see if he wants to try it. We'll see. Anyway, so Michael says, happy birthday.

Thank you. Well, there is now for people who are watching the replay. They wouldn't talk about it. There's no problem. It's because I have great editors and producers who get rid of this. There you go. See, look, this was my purpose. The chat united on something together.

There we go. Perfect. Sean McCabe, happy birthday, my brother. Much love from the McCabe family. Always got your back. I know you do. You're a good dude. And it's always great to hear from you. This is hilarious.

The whole entire chat for, this is five minutes of mute. I think we went longer than that. I think we were longer than five minutes of mute. Zero audio still. People giving, that was nice. People were sending in chats even though we were muted.

I'm excited to talk to you guys about the pilot one I can give you more. Um, it, we came up with a pretty funny scene. I mean, the,

show is very like, uh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, check this shit out, everybody. It's not Steph Sabra, so I'm not going to do that yet. See, I don't have a Jonathan Voico to do this shit. So here's, here's Stephsaroff for now. If I could give you one birthday gift, it would be a Jonathan Voico. Yeah. Well, there you go. look at this uh what's up mr campy how are you sir i'm good you know what's funny yeah my my calendar popped up my notification on for me yesterday about it being your birthday yeah and i don't know why but i had this memory flashback because i i think it's safe to say one of the one of the most impactful coolest things you've ever done was schmo down oh thank you and i still remember

i'm sitting in my office one morning i don't know if we've ever done ever told this story. I'm sitting in my office one morning. Yeah. And I get this call from Christian, who never calls me in the mornings. And he calls me and he's on his way into the office. I was in the office a little bit early. And he's like, he sounds so excited. He goes, listen, man, I just, I had this epiphany. I had this thing. I got to talk to as soon as I get there. I talk to you soon as I get there. I'm like, what is it? No, no, I just, I just want to wait until I get there. I just want to wait till I get there. I'm like, all right, all right. So Christian shows up at the office. He comes and he sits down and he gives me this big pitch about Schmodeown. And first of all, the idea was brilliant. It was a brilliant

idea. But I remember this thing to myself, I have never seen this man more enthusiastic about anything in my life. And like you had this whole thing like completely already envisioned and mapped out in your head because I don't know. I think Christian sells himself. short. He sometimes says he's not a details guy. I've always found Christian to be very much a details guy because I remember that morning, he already had like everything planned out. Like he had all these steps. And like when you're one of these guys that when your imagination grabs onto something, you start calculating variables and possibilities and like you're a vision guy. And I just, I just, I will always remember that one thing about to me, that's like one of the greatest examples.

I've ever seen of somebody who was like really passionate about something. And man, it just, and you manifested it, dude. Like you turned it in one of the coolest things the movie space has ever seen online. Oh, thanks. And you continue to do that. So that's very nice. That's very nice. No, I've never actually told that story because until like I remember it when you, when you tell it,

I remember it vividly. But I was like, but that because yeah, we were, we were on, we were on Collider. and it was like, okay, we were pitching shows and there were other ideas and other things coming in. And I was like, I know John's a wrestling fan. I know that he is this big sports guy. He'll get this. He'll understand what I want to do because it was,

because at that point on the schmose, it was just like a weekly, sorry, yearly tournament. Right, right. You participate in it. You were in it. Not well. Participated in not well.

You know, you in the, see, I do, I do, I see, I have a, Magic graphics guy. Look at that. I remember me and I think Rob and I were undefeated. Oh, yeah, but then there was a big Star Wars thing. You played with Tiffany back in the Schmo's days, and that was a good match. Yeah, yeah, that was a good match.

And then there was the big one at Star Wars Celebration. We did that Star Wars Smowdown. But that was awesome. That was after you kind of gave it the green light to go on Collider. So, yeah, and it had blown up at that point. But it's funny that you say that, and I see some people in the chat. So I don't know. We haven't spoken in a bit.

And one of there's been a few things in my life that I had that kind of passion for. So right now I'm actually in the midst of of I think my next one. It's the same feeling that I get when it, whether it was like envisioning like the schmows no live show, the schmow down. And I'm there again with this one. I'm I wrote a like a television pilot that is in the vein of, you know, say like it hacks and it's got the bear type of elements and it's a 30 minute pilot. that I already have secured a director and a producer on. And if I talked off line with you,

you would know who these people were. I think a lot of people don't realize too, how good of a writer you are. Thank you. Because you had that old show you were trying to do once with the comedians. And what was the one? Okay, I don't know if I'm allowed to say,

but you had that one you're gonna do, remember about the grocery store? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you can talk about it. Yeah, yeah. So Christian once had this thing of that I just thought was while. I mean, it was gonna be stupid expensive. to do. But you had that one like, what was it? What was it? Bacon or something like that you had shoes and beef? Shoes and beef. That's what it was. Yeah. We actually did a, um, we did a mock. Um, we had an animator and

we had a couple of animators. We put like a mock version of it on the channel. We just, you know, we didn't have the money that would cost, but we're running a Kickstarter. Yeah, that was going to be expensive. Yeah. But dude, we're running a kick service. When we're going like, we're going to shoot it like an Apple pilot. We're going to shoot like a Netflix pilot. We're going after like real big cast and like we're going to, you know, at this point, it's kind of balls to the wall. And, and I am going to put that same kind of passion into it. So I really appreciate you saying that because sometimes when you, even though you can feel it, when you hear some other people recognize it, it allows you to say, yeah, yeah, you know what? The goal is, the goal is correct. Let's, let's do that.

Yeah. And I mean, that's, the thing is I've always thought of you, because you're so great at YouTube and, and, and the video stuff that it's easy for people, I think, to think of you, as a YouTube guy. But for people who've had the privilege of getting to know you a little bit more, you're an entertainment guy. And you've got a mind for that sort of stuff. And it's always exciting. I know for people who know you, including me,

when you are able to have some time and to dedicate to kind of getting your claws into other projects like that, I know that's really cool. Yeah, thanks, man. I appreciate it. So about you? So you're driving around the, the world in an RV, right? Yeah, but we, Ann and I, like, I'm planning on retiring, whatever, but anyway,

it got this van that I'm able to do my show from the road and whatever. Actually, I was going to text you because we're going to do New York. Oh, good. When? Probably sometime in, like, early in the new year. I was going to get a hold of you and say when we come up to New York. The warmest, the warmest time of the year. Well, I mean, it's going to be a little bit after.

Maybe once the snow starts to melt. Actually, I'm going to Indiana next week and Cody, Cody, uh, Cody, Miller's going to be. Oh, cool. Yeah, I'm actually going to be staying at Cody's for a night. Tell me, I said, hi. So we're going to do a movie meet up there and we're going to hit a bunch of stuff. That's, listen, man, I tell you what, it's been a lot of fun.

We've done like 10 cities in the last few weeks. Yeah. And it's been amazing. And I know it's crazy when I'm meeting like fans all over the place. Like I've been Denver, Albuquerque, Salt Lake City, like all that kind of stuff. How many people come up and say, you know, I first really started watching YouTube, watching you and Christian and SNAP and stuff like that. It's really cool hearing from all these people

who have been watching you and me for a long time. And that's always like a really cool rewarding thing. I'm actually leaving again next week. I'm leaving again next week to go to Chicago, Indiana, Kansas City. That's cool. And you just do the show from the RV? Yeah. So what happens is, you know,

I get Jonathan and Rob come into the studio and they run the show from here. And then I just, I just remote in from the van because I've got like, I've got like two star links on the van to make sure my internet is good. That's great. And then just didn't able to do it from the road.

So that's, that's been a lot of fun. That's amazing, man. Yeah, that's good, good for you. And you, so you, I've been, as I've been talking about in the audience, knows I've been on kind of like a fitness journey the last. Yeah, you're looking great, man. Thanks brother. Yeah, probably like 70.

If I was going to say the same with you, you looked like you lost a lot of weight. Yeah. I mean, for the first time in, you know, when I had my heart attacks. Yeah. which was like a huge wake up call to me. The problem was I stopped training, but I kept eating like I was training. And I bloomed up at one point to 240 pounds.

Wow. So like it's been a slow methodical whatever. So I'm back down to about 200 right now. I'm right around where I'm training again and all that kind of stuff. So that's good. But you look fantastic. Yeah. It was kind of the same thing, man,

as I just didn't want to like, because, you know, especially for what we do, you're similar to me where you feel like I need to use every minute of everything that I have. Either if I'm not doing stuff with work, then I should be doing something else with work or something with my family. And it's like, and you have no time for anything else. And I was like, that's kind of bullshit. If you can find a way to make just a little bit of time, then your health should really be important.

I've been talking to the audience knows that my buddy, we call him Ming. he has been working out for over like 30 years he's like you see him he he he's like a brick shit house but he's like but he's in really good shape he's done a couple my my reviews or my reactions with him um so he i called him i said dude i've known him since first grade and i go i need i really want to start getting in shape and i need uh help and he's like i got you so like you just got to be able to come with me at the time so i had to move my show and that was why and like so i was going at the same time you were going and i was like that's not a ideal. But I had to do it because I needed to go at 11. I need to go at, I guess, well, 11 a.m.

Your time. That's always the hardest, right? You're finding the time. That's what I'm saying. And I had to go and I had to do it at time because that's when he was available. And he had the workout and he had this and I had to go there on his schedule. And I was like that. And so when I got comfortable enough to go myself, now I go right in the morning. I go right in the morning before I go to the gym. I leave in the morning. That's why I moved my show back two hours again because I can now I can just I drive out in the morning I go to the gym I feel great and then you know and it's eating and it's also diet that's that's the main thing yeah I mean that that's that's the hard but you know what for guys that do stuff even like us whether they're bloggers podcasters whatever it's it's like we sit on our asses and watch movies

and then we sit on our asses and talk about movies and it's it's important to get that stuff in and you and I are lucky that we've got fantastic partners. You know, Anne and Sadie and like being able to motivate us and giving us a reason to do the stuff that we do. But hey, you know, listen, a lot of people, you and I don't get a chance to talk a lot. A lot of people don't know. We just drop each other text. Like we'll drop each other random texts like around different things. But listen, man, I just wanted to say, I should get out here, let you get back to your show.

I got to get ready for mine. But, dude, you're one of the best in the same. space. Thank you. I look back over my career and I've gotten to work with some absolutely incredible people and your name is right up there at the top and you're, you're one of the best out there. You're like the way you contribute to this whole online space is amazing. And happy birthday to you, man. I wish I were out there to celebrate it with you, but I'll, uh, when you come in, when you come out for you. Yeah, dude, please do that. And when you are here for your, uh, for your movie in January, please let me know and I'll come visit. Yeah, yeah, we'll set that up.

All right, John, thanks to stop and by, brother. Have a good one, man. Take care. John Campy, everybody. So that was nice. What a nice surprise that was. So, well, good. And now we'll, we'll see.

And that's why we didn't cover shit today because you just don't know. Maybe there's other people that'll pop in. You know what? Luke, why don't you do this? I probably should have done this already. How good was Luke? Luke already popped in a graphic. Is that mine?

This is for Capes and Cowles. It's Capes and Cal's. What the hell's mine? I'll find it. This is what, I got to, reorganize this. Thank you, Luke, do me fair, send the link out to the whole crew. And if anybody wants to pop in, they can. If they don't decide it. It's last minute if they want to again. So, all right, let's get back to this stuff. Again, nice surprise appearance here

from John and holy moly. We hit over 100 already while we were doing that great conversation there with with John. So happy he was able to pop in. It was nice. All righty. Let's see.

Let's go. I'm going to get back to the questions where we were. That was really nice. Everything. You guys are doing. Very kind. Look at this.

What a nice stream this has become? I'm digging it. I think one of the things that I'm going to also do is I should probably reach out to John once it comes down to it when we get closer to that Kickstarter. I'd like to probably try to see if I can pop on a few shows to get the word out there. And his audiences has always been very kind and very loyal.

So we'll see. Okay. All right. Where, uh-oh. Where is the? Where is it? Oh, man. There's a lot of questions here.

I'm going back up to to get it. Hold on, everybody. Hold on. Let's, there we go. Okay. So what was that one? Is that? No, we still did that one.

Shoot, you guys are. crushing today. Holy moly. I'm looking. I'm looking. I got to get back to where the last one was. And then I can't remember who the last person was. Wow. I can't. I mean, you guys are really, I'm humbled. I'm humbled and then some. It wasn't geek load stores. Was that Alex? I think it was Alex. I think Alex. Alex. Alex. I got Alex. Okay. So I'm caught up here. All right. Find the destination and this is Mr. I crap and shits. We came in here.

Chris Leisandfeld, we got Ryan S. We get that, yes. Blake Gilbert. Happy birthday, Christian. Thank you. Let me just make sure I got Ryan S. Happy birthday, Christian.

Your best year. Great success with the pilot. I guess you did. And much happiness and health. Thank you. Uh, geek load stars, happy birthday. Thank you, sir. Tip, toe, cloud.

Happy birthday. Thank you. let's say you know what I should do I'm going to ask her if she wants to come in I am on stream right now for my birthday want to come in introduce yourself to the audience let's see if she says yes let's see if she says yes she might not okay tiptoe cloud happy birthday thank you William, truly, I'm so happy that you're moving along with the pilot. I can support. I can't wait to support any way I can.

Also, I can't, I can't tell you how much your content means to me. Thank you. That is very, very kind. I really appreciate it. And yeah, we're pushing hard on this pilot. Pushing real hard on it and we're trying to, okay. So she's, she can't. I was going to introduce you guys to Martinique.

But she can't right now. Okay. So I appreciate you guys and I, they're very nice to you, William. I'm glad that the content was able to, that it meant a lot to you. I'm glad that it continues to.

And I'm glad that you're here. And I'm glad that you're being so supportive. I'm glad that you're, I feel like everybody's going to be as passionate about this pilot as I am. Because I saw some people and I get it. Like people in nature, I saw some guy. And I'm not going to call him a turd because he wasn't that mean about it.

But he was just like, I watched the live streams. I don't care about his pilot. I'm like, okay, whatever. What I want to, my, my, the message is kind of what I want to do with this whole thing, with this pilot is, I want you guys to almost feel like this is your pilot. And not even almost. It is.

It is. I mean, and this is why, one of the reasons I was thinking about this morning as you see Chris Stockman is doing all these interviews and everything and now he's really promoting his movie and God bless him. He's, he's one of the inspirations of why I decided I wanted to really. go out and try to do this because of what he accomplished. His audience and his career on YouTube is what allowed him this opportunity. The audience saying we know what this guy can do as a creator and we want to support him because we know what he can do. His audience, he'll say as much,

is responsible for him being able to be in a position that he's in. I am tired of people that have ideas that go into rooms and unfortunately and they're think about how many great ideas have been turned down because people think that they know better right sometimes it's the truth that they do and it doesn't work but how many times someone's it well i don't have the means to do it this is a position for us to be in where again when i'm able to a director who knows what they're doing a producer knows what they're doing. If we get the DP that we want, knows what they're doing. If we get the cast that we want,

we can do this together. And it's like, I was talking about with the Schmode. And I had these ideas in my head and the things I was talking about. I'm like, oh, if we can just, if everybody can rally around it, you guys are essentially the producers of the things. Like, if it think about it, because I think what we think, we all do. It's human beings.

We think small sometimes. A lot of times. And so in your head, you might be thinking, okay, well, he's going to do a pilot. He's going to do this little, you know, this little thing. And as long as it gets, it gets done and good for him and all. But think about it in a way that you and me and everybody together puts together this show that eventually becomes a series on Netflix, on Apple, on whatever. And you can look and go, I did that with everything else that this. fucker kept talking about this thing and I bought into it too and I did that because we're allowed to make

the power plays us as viewers as listeners as as creators as fans as subscribers we get to say yes and no because yes okay great they're going to have to be ultimately the ones that put it on and say yes we want that but they don't get they'll see the final product after it's done because we are going to be the ones in the power position and that's why I want to do this and it's the best time to do it So be prepared for those people who love the movie news, everything, too. It's going to be movie news and it's going to be that. But I am going to every day on every video, on everything that I do, we'll be talking about this thing because I believe in it that much.

I believe in the people I'm working with. And I believe in you guys. So that's it. Okay. Larry, happy birthday, Christian, going to see Spinal Tap 2 in a bed. I still haven't seen the first one. Hoping they do a new rendition of sex form. Much love from Queens.

Well, part of Queens, Larry. Where are you at? I was in, where was all? I was in, where was I? I was somewhere, actually watching Ming's son. It was a kickboxer watching his fights. Where was I? Queens.

I don't remember what it was. All right. Well, right now we're at 108, guys. 108. Oh, my goodness. 108. I love that. So right now, we've,

gotten guests. Oh, you know what? Hey, you know, I'm going to send this. I don't know if he can make it. I'll send this to, I should, I probably should have done this. Sent this to everybody who would, if he can make it. If he can't, whatever. I'm just some special, special texts I've been sending stuff out. Okay. That's hilarious. Shay Markell. Have you heard of She writes shotgun, a film with Taryn Egerton. It's a father-daughter drama thriller, and the young actress is phenomenal in it. No, I don't think that I have. I like Taryn Egerton a lot, so there you go.

Oh, William. How dare you, sir? I hate to do this, but I'm from Boston Gross Sox. I get it, but Horne follows it up, so it's a Harlov's relationship goals. My wife's the best. She's a pain in the butt, but I love her more than anything. She's wonderful. And, yeah, she's just, she made the, she did everything that she could to make sure that

that I did more. And she and I came. So I do, I do, um, I still produce for Katie Sackoff's podcast and I do stuff for the, for the clips channel and stuff. And so I had to do some work on that. And she's like, when you just do it from home? And then she made me pancakes.

She went and I got to see my little one get on the bus. And it was a nice morning. And I, cause I knew I was, like I said, off day at the gym. And I, then it's been relaxing thus far and whatnot. All right. Enrique. Interactive. Cool name. I think Sean Penn is the villain of the,

if I'm a billion, I said it, did it again. Villain the year better than Lex Luthor. Agreed. Galactus, agreed. Century. Yeah, agreed. Remick, agreed. And the witch from weapons.

He might be. He might be. She's, yeah, he might be the villain of the year. Travis. I'll say, I'll tell you, Russell Crow was pretty good, too, in Nornburg. Travis Nickerson, I heard they are making a Randy Savage movie,

who are your top three choices for that role. Did you ever see the Western movie, Old Henry, Gritty underrated? I did not see Old Henry, but I wouldn't even be able to tell you who I think, who I could see playing Randy Savage, because the problem is going to be the voice. Because you don't want it to, it's got to be,

because he didn't, he exaggerated it, obviously, in interviews and everything too, but he still had a really raspy voice, he would go down about this, That's going to hurt your voice for a while. So, but, you know, who I think maybe even Pelfrich from, from task could be a guy. I don't know about top three, though, because that's a tough one. I think Moa's too big.

Java juice. Have your birthday. Thank you. How do you like to treat yourself on your birthday? Most times I'm working on my birthday, most times. But I like to get my, like, if I was, it depends on, like I said, tonight, I'll get myself in this, this place. this place that we like to go eat. I'm going to go eat there.

I'm going to have a nice bowl of pasta or something. Maybe not. Maybe I have a steak. I don't know yet. And then I'm going to a glass of wine. And that'll be it. And I'm going to leave work a little early today so I can get to my daughter's softball practice.

So that to me is a good treat. Plus I see family and friends on my on Saturday. So there you go. That little Yankee. Happy birthday. Screw you, stream red. Yeah. Come on stream.

Continue blessing. Thanks for all you've done. and go yanks. Thank you. Very nice, little Yankee. Appreciate that. William,

coming back in. I watched Boogie Nights for the first time over the weekend. I absolutely loved it. I can't wait to see one battle. Enjoy it. I think you're going to really like it,

especially if you love it. If you really love Boogie Nights, I think it really, Boogie is still my favorite, PTA movie, but pretty damn solid this movie. My cat, what's on my,

happy birthday, you rock. Mine was three days ago. So was yours, my daughter's was a 27? Darren. Darien, I always say, Darren. How dare I, Darian. How you been, brother? Happy birthday. So thankful, I found you in this space and grateful for all your encouragement and advice. I hope you have the best day and you deserve it. Age fan for life. What a nice guy, Darian is. Darren, do me a favor and plug your, throw me your in the chat. Throw me your, your channel name. So I can, I can give it a shout out.

because Darian does a lot of great stuff on his channel where he's a, he breaks down a lot of movies and he's got some great guests. He's covered a festival. He was, when I was doing the one-on-ones on Patreon, um, I would do these sessions and he was, he was a very,

very nice dude, very, you have a passionate, I'm very passionate about this business and a go-getter. So I root for people like Darian all the time. So, um, and he still keeps telling me that his mom wants to make to meatballs.

I'm not eating those as much anymore, but I can smell. I could smell it. Smell it. I might have some time, though, at this restaurant I'm going to. Thank you, Darren. So very kind of you, as always.

Mr. Icrop and... It's a merry annual anniversary for your escape from the womb. Thank you. That's true. Gotta get the hell out of there. 116. Oh, my goodness.

And we've got only an hour and 10 into this. Are we going to hit the Mighty 2 today? I wonder. Nerds engage. I'm sure it's been addressed, but it's quick gone permanently. now. Happy birthday, sir. I hope it's a growing. I mean, right now, the answer to that is yes. I haven't been, he actually sent in a video for the, for the birthday message. I haven't had a chance to

reconnect to him. We do have an idea for, like, for this spot, this slot, this Wednesday slot. I have an idea with Coy of what I want to do for the show. But I haven't had a chance to speak with him yet. He said around this time, October, November, going to revisit it. So I'm going to, I'm going to revisit with him. So right now, yes, but we'll see. Uh, Sallem King. Happy birthday, thank you. They're following since right before my balls dropped. Oh, congratulations. Now I'm a broke college student. That'll change. Loving the reactions and the shows. Thank you. Yeah, I was looking at it. We got so much coming up, man. So much, not only with the reactions, it's so much reactions, but we got, um, the, um, a lot of reviews coming up.

We got a lot of, I mean, a lot of reviews coming up. I have a couple interviews coming up, which is interesting, and working on some more. So that's it. I'm pumped. I'm pumped about that. So I'm glad you've watched. A good time to be watching.

This is very, very kind. And then some, Angela, thank you so much for that wonderful, wonderful donation. Very kind to you. Happy birthday, Christian, flying to Boston today,

watching the show on the plane. Awesome. Safe flight, please. Hope you have a wonderful day. Just wanted to send some love. And boy, did you ever, Angela. That's very nice. Your show makes my day every day.

Man, better birthday presents than what you guys are giving me. I don't know if I can get them. Love seeing the changes over the years. I mean, isn't that fun too? Angela, that's kind of my point beforehand to with the pilot, right? Like, think about the people. I think about like first rate knee, who, again, a very, very supportive fan.

When I left Skybound, had it not been for Nate's generosity, where we'd set like an Amazon list because Brett and I were putting together the old studio in L.A., when I converted my garage. garage. We were like, you know, it's going to take us a while to get here, certain things that we're going to want. It's going to look a little shitty at that point. We're going to throw some stuff on the list. We'll see. These lights that I'm looking at right now in this studio, Nate got them for us, supported it. So when the, when the show looks like this, when these things start happening, the wall panels, when the thing, the evolution of this show, I'm not,

it's not hyperbole. I'm being completely, completely honest. when it is because of you, all of you, like, wherever it might be. And that's like when I, the Schmodeon, the reason it was as successful it was when you guys were contributing to the Patreon on Schmodown and helping us get to a place where we could get it to Skybound and could do all those things. I mean, that's, that's the point.

It's like, you've got to believe in it as much as I do, right? Like, like, I can believe in it to get it off the ground. Whether it's Schmo's this show, you know, the Schmod Collider Live, whatever it is. It's got to, I got to care about it in the beginning to say, okay, I really think you guys going to like this. And then when you really like it, you guys have to love it as much as I do. Otherwise, it doesn't work.

And that's what I'm hoping for when we get this Kickstarter going. Like, I want you guys to go, let's get there. Like, I'm going to be the one in the beginning. And let's get to that goal. We got to get to the goal. We got to get to this. And the first questions you're going to be is like, well, why? Why do we need it?

Why do we need that person? Why does that have to go there? Why do you need that? And then you're going to go, oh, let's get there. I want us all to, like, lock arms and run to that finish line. So that's where the changes come overall. And I'm glad that you enjoyed seeing them. Very, very, very kind of you, Angela.

Thank you. Jen, Shazam, became a YouTube member. Hell yeah. I love that. All right. 121 questions. Oh my goodness. I'm going to be here for a while. At least I hope we are. I'd like to be here for a while. I'll be here until 1230. 1230? Yeah, right? It's past 1230. That makes no sense at all.

230, right around 2.30. Which will be good. Patrick, Stuart. I'm excited to see the smashing machine this weekend. You're out of the theory reaction bolstered my excitement. I'm excited for Tron, Aries, good fortune, the running man, wicked for good. and Zootopia too in the coming weeks. A lot of big releases coming out. Look, there are things like the smashing machine. I really, I did. I enjoyed it. I thought that it's, I mean,

Dwayne Johnson will be nominated for that role. I really do think he will be. And if not, it's a, it's a bias against him. He was, it's a great performance. It's a great performance. It's a good sports biopic. Is it great? I don't know, but it's good.

I enjoyed it and I was engaged. I was locked in. I was really engaged in the performances and the chemistry of both The Rock and Emily Blanc. So the rest of those all curious about for sure. Wiley Todd, what's up, man? Happy birthday. We'd love to know any life advice you have for 20-somethings.

Wiley, this is kind of like a same answer that I've just been giving when I'm talking about the show, right? It's like to this day, from the 20s to now, it's like believe in yourself, even when it's hard to, believe in yourself. negativity, whether it's towards yourself or other people, it goes nowhere. Anger, when it feels, you know, I got to really, I got to say this. I'm speaking my mind. It doesn't, it, it, it's not beneficial.

And I learned that a lot of ways, the hard ways. But especially my 20s. And, you know, take your time. have patience and believe in yourself. That's the best thing I could say is for someone in their 20s, just really, and listen to people. Listen, people don't listen to people. Go, pal, thank you for that one.

Go, pal, happy birthday. Happy birthday to you, go, pal, even though it's not your birthday. Thank you. I appreciate that, and thank you for the gift yesterday, my friend. Simon's section. Red velvet, come on, you deserve it. I love red velvet cake. It's delicious.

I would like some carrot cake, too. I know. I'm not a big dessert person. Like, tonight, you know, I'm going to get. You probably hate this too. I'm going to get creme brule at the place that I go to. I'm not, I'm like, like pasta and what you know what I'm going to? You know what? You know, I'm really looking forward to this place that we're going to that the portions are huge and delicious. And I love muscles. They're going to give me this big tray of muscles. And I can sit there.

I don't want anybody to talk to me. I'm just going to have a glass of wine. I mean, that makes no sense. We know, no one talk to me. You know, my, my, my eight-year-old says, Take that show up. I'm muscles, kids, kid. I just want to join my family. I want to have some of the, I want to have some muscles. I just want to chill out.

That's it. How about a replica cake of the Storm Shadow used to show? John Camps got him a birthday. Oh, that's right. He did get a BBA cake the first time of live cloud. I remember that. I don't need that kind of stuff. I don't need that kind of stuff.

Soul, silence, jukebox. Thank you for always keeping us entertained. Thank you for being in. here. I appreciate that. Tom Hanks coming in hot. 30 never looked so good. Happy birthday legend. Thank you. Very kind. Territorial aid became a YouTube member. A lot of new members today. I'll take that for a birthday gift. Hell yeah. Mr. I crap and shits. Hopefully the Browns start rookie in, start rookie Dillion, Gabriel can start off like Jackson Dard did great. Did for your giants. I have doubt so. Yeah, let's see how DART does in the weeks to follow. We'll see. Um, okay.

See, this is what I'm talking about. I love this. Ask questions. Let's have conversations. Let's do it. Why not? Happy birthday. When you talk to Steph, can you ask her if she thinks you would like legend of a box in a show? She has reacted to it and seems like it. I've heard good things about it. That's Matt Mercer's show.

Is Matt Mercer? I remember back in the day, he used to be on Shmose and he was on Collider. But I heard good things. I think of that that's the show. But it's just a matter of my hesitation is putting that much time into to like the what we're doing now with Demon Slayer and people don't watch it. Like it's like it's it's disheartening because it like because it well for a lot of different reasons. One, the obvious.

You know, you're spending money on the person who's watching it with you. You spend the money on the editor. But getting invested in a show like that and then like, oh, you're doing that so the audience can see the enjoyment and they're not watching it. That's the bummer. Wicked Art.

Happy 21st birthday. Thank you. I just wondering, do you think they will start the MCU X-Men with Magneto again or go with underused villain like Mr. Sinister. I think they're going to go with Mr. Sinister. And he's magnanimally, I think he can save him now. He's so, he's so like locked into pop culture that when he, almost like what they did

with the Joker for Dark Night, make more sense. Angela, coming back in. Any chance to have Mark Ellis as a one-off surprise guest watching since those days? Yes, absolutely. We've talked about it. I mean, look, I would love to have Mark on just to do a regular show like we normally do virtually, but he and I have talked about it. We really want the first big one.

like you know surprise appearance here and there or something like that be sure um we haven't pop up to have them like do like a full on episode we want them to be in studio to do it and we're hoping to try to do that um sooner than later scott be happy birthday christian looking forward to seeing and supporting the pilot when that drops do you think the kickstar will begin before end the year that is the hope Scott that is the hope i mean like so we like i said right right now the where like and i talked about this the other day i do not like having the ball in my court. I like to take the, I don't like to rush it out and just throw it back to the to the other court. I like to make sure that you're, you're doing everything you need to do and

then throw it back, but I like to, I don't like to sit around. I like to, and Martinique is the same way. And so, and she's a, she is a baller and she's very talented. She's very, very, for you guys going to fall in love with her. She's going to be great in this role. Um, and she's a great and she's an incredible writer. Incredible. She's the reason, by the way, that Shmo's no exists. and I've talked about this. Without her, there's no shmos no. But anyway, she put, we had these notes. We had the call a week and a half ago, and then we got it done. And now the ball is back in their court. So now the producer, director, associate producer, have to read it. And then the next goal is, okay, now let's set a call. They say, hey, we still have one more thing that we think should be done. Because what they did, they had us make a couple of cuts.

in the script because already and this is great. This is why we bring them on. This is a great scene and you probably could explore this in future episodes, but realistically, this is going to take up a big portion of the budget if we do this scene in this location. Do you need it? And the answer is no, you could probably have a full episode of that location in a future episode.

And then there's little things instead of the person being here. Can they be here? Does that take away from the storyline? No, not really. Okay, can you make that change? And instead of this person showing up here, can they show up here and still maintain the story? Yes, it can. So you take little notes like that.

You put those together and then you bring that back and you something to go, well, we'd still felt that so-and-so could maybe show up here and do that because there's one particular role that really calls itself. We can get, I think someone had suggested like, you know, Jason Lee, like a Jason Lee type character. You can get like him to do this type of role. There's a big, there's the way that he would debut that you go, oh, there he is. That's amazing. So, you know, we put all those things together. And then we get on a phone call. We go over, okay, so this is who was on your cast list.

If we go after that person and we get this person, so you're looking to get that person, that person, that person, this, this and this. And we get this DP that we want. We want this. We want this location. We want this. We want all that. The minimum that we can do this show for this is X amount of money. That's the minimum.

And you put the minimum out there because, okay, well, look, we did, we, we just hit the goal. We just hit it. We're not going to be able to maybe go out and spend a little bit more and get so-and-so. We're going to have to probably do this or we won't be able to get that particular DP. But we hit this goal. We hit that so we can make the show. But then if you're real lucky, you go, we surpassed our goal. And now we can really do this show and put all the bells and whistles on it.

So, uh, yes. And I would love them to say, hey, we're ready. This is the number that we need. And then we start putting together the Kickstarter goals. And hopefully by the end of the year, it comes out. That would be great. Uh, James McGill. Happy birthday. I've been a fan since it was just you and Mark doing movie reviews. Those are the good old days. I, um, yeah, I had a lot of great memories with Mark. to this day. There is no better person in the world than Mark Ellis. He's a great person. Ninjanky 44 became a new YouTube member. Listen, I'm loving this. I'm loving all the new members. At 135 question day. How about that? Atomic brunette, happy birthday Christian since this is October now. What's your favorite Halloween horror movie? I'd probably still say the nightmare in Elm Street movies.

So I like the Freddie Cracks jokes. That's probably it. I'd say Freddie Cracking jokes. Somebody just gets something else there? Somebody else just got another deodorant. Thank you guys. Yoshimitsu. Happy birthday, Christian. I found you and Shmodeon because honest trailers let me to movie fights and nightfall. I've been a fan ever since.

That was an old school moment as well too. That was desperation. And I could not think of a movie. To have to make one up on the spot. I did it twice. Thank you. And I'm so glad that you found us. I really appreciate it.

Okay. Hey. I got a nice message from my buddy, Steve So. I love Steve Simone. Okay, birthday question for you. If you could impart one piece of advice to yourself from 10 plus years ago, what would it be? Probably, you know, the same thing, 10 years ago, from 10 years ago to yourself to myself to 10 years ago? I guess so.

Or the person. interesting how you I know what you're trying to get at so I'm going to answer it the way I think that you're trying to get at what I would tell myself 10 years ago if I can go back in time same thing that I was just saying first of all and I know I hate saying this I hate saying this because it makes you guys think that I didn't love um that time um I would tell myself to stay with schmose no just stick with schmose no um guest on collider do the shows with john and schnapp and tiffany all those people that that i loved doing shows with um i would not do you know i would just probably just do guests on on movie talk and

stuff and then i would help build out the show even more so with shmose know and and locked in more with Shamos. But then again, I don't know if I would have done anything differently because it all led me to where I am now. And I've said this many times over. I remember who I was talking to recently. This is the easily the happiest I've ever been. So why I believe that I was mentally able to get myself into the gym and do these things too. I love being back in New York. I love being able to, I was walking around the city the other day. And like, I don't think that I could have actually gone through. through that or been here had I not gone through all that stuff. So as much as I disliked my time on some of those shows, I guess I kind of had to go there in order to tell myself,

okay, this is, that's not really where you want to be. And you got to find a way to get happier. So maybe, so maybe as I hear that question, I go, probably stay the course is the answer now that I say that. As I worked through that, my therapist. Jen Shazam. I know you're swamped the reactions, but I think Vox Machma is one you would love. I'm sure that it would. It's the same way that the other one is attack on Titan. Everyone told him about fantasy, high quality animation, R-rated humor to watch eventually if you're looking for things in the future. I hear really great things about it. Really great things.

That's hilarious. David B. He just said me a funny message to a David B. Great musician. One of the best. But thank you, Jen Zazam. Gen Shazam. He follows it up. also as an interesting behind-the-scenes story that was originally a result of a successful Kickstarter by voices of critical role before Prime acquired the rights. That's, well, that's, yeah, that's that's that's that's Matt, right? Great fan base from our fans. I mean, look, that's that is what I'm also. Look, we are in all in all things, right? Here on this channel, we are small but mighty, right?

We're small but mighty. And I'm very happy with what we accomplished from when really I just started really posting like daily content and everything on this channel. of late 2022, really. Like it was really just kind of long form, a couple of big thing episodes and a few things like the reviews and all those things. They didn't really start happening until late 2022. So in that time, we already got to a place. We're almost 210,000 subscribers. Now we've got a very loyal live fan base.

We're very loyal reaction fan base. We're a very loyal review fan base. And it's just a matter of let, like I said, if people are passionate about this thing, we're going to hit. you. One way or another, we're going to hit it. Whether, you know, I'm hoping that I want everybody to be on board with it. But that's why, you know, same thing. That's what they did with a critical role. Samuel, Samuel.

Very kind. Yeah, Mike, it's my birthday today, too. Livers for Fife. Hell yeah. There you go. Another new member, Jay Flaggy. Thank you, Jay Flaggy. A lot of new members today.

Hope to cross past you at a New York ComicCon. make it out. I'm going to try to go, like, at least for like a day. I'm going to try to go. My daughter really wants to go. So I'm trying to take her. Um,

Aquinas, happy birthday. Thank you. Would you try out gaming streams on a channel? Um, not. The answer is in my head at one point in another, I thought about it. I, as I was just talking about it beforehand, I don't know if I have time for that. You know what I mean? Like you'd really be able to put the time effort and be like, I need to, like, I'm even looking at the clock now. I really would like to stay on this live stream with you guys for the next two or three hours and this bullshit. But I can't. At 2.30, I got to jump off.

I got to do a reaction with Steph. And then I'm going to do a couple more things, like emails and a few other things. And then I'm going to take the day off and I'm going to go be with my family. I'm going to enjoy the rest of the birthday. But then tomorrow, I got a bunch of different shoots. Things I got to do. I got to shoot something for Matt, Sarah. so he's got an interview with the um with i don't want to say who the interview is yet i don't think he wants to

announce again but um and then you know it's like shoot day shoot day shoot day friday shoot day shoot day shoot day shoot day i don't know where i would even find find the time to do a gaming stream uh patrick stewart who says supergirl spider man brand new day clay face or avengers dooms day you can only choose to watch in the theater which would you choose paraphrase from a question on john campbelly show Okay. So I can only choose two to watch in the theater. I can watch the rest of them anywhere. Well,

You're talking about, got another guest. I got another guest coming in. And the good news about this guest is I, we should, somewhere we should already have a, uh, lower third.

How are you doing? I'm doing excellent. I just finished up editing a really awesome voiceover demo for a client. So I'm like enjoying all that. How are you doing? How are you celebrating? Well, so I was talking about it this morning. As I said, I've been sent in the audience.

It's probably tired of me saying at this point. But I got very special. I woke up the first thing to open my eyes and my little one was just sitting there going, happy birthday, Dad. Look at this. Now by the end of the stream, Look at this. What a crew.

So yeah, I knew, you know what I should have done. Oh shit. This doesn't work. You've got to be kidding me. Is it not working? Yes. Perfect. Absolutely perfect.

Is it working or no? He doesn't know if it is. He did. So anyway, so my little one woke me up, said happy birthday to me, gave me some presents in the morning. I was, Sadie had some stuff. And then, you know, just been enjoying it. I love. that he can't get his stuff working.

That was the best present ever. He doesn't even need to come back. He doesn't even need to come back. He really doesn't even need to come back. It's totally fine. Magical. It's good. So,

and then the rest of it was, you know, I came to the office. I did a couple things here. And then the, the audience has just been thrown in questions. I had a surprise guest. Campi came in.

He came in. Oh, fun. Yeah. So, was he from the camper? I, camper at that point. We talked about the camper. Is it working now? Yeah, no, I just want to

That's a good. A better chance without me. Maybe. Maybe. Johnny Petriza could be worth putting, could it worth putting demons save from me? Jesus. You haven't got glasses on. You can't read.

You read that. You read that. Could it be could it worth putting Demon Slayer for members? There you go. I don't even have my glasses on it. I could do that. You messed it up. Anyway, could it worth, right?

Could it be worth it putting demons slayer on for members? But I got what you were saying. You know, but not necessarily no. We put it on, we put the unedited up for members. So Nate dog, happy birthday. Fans, since the Toad Hop days, first chat here. Thank you, Nate dog. Thanks for all the years and passion you have given.

Sidney's shopping. Do your nuts. My wife has a glass of wine. I might have to. My cat.

I'll just say the, this might even been a birthday gift. I might have just been a regular if I did this. This is actually, this probably doesn't answer the question, but it's still funny gifts question.

So I can't remember when it was, but I was, I had this R2D2 pizza cutter. And I found it in my drawer and I got it nowhere. I'm like, and I posted on Instagram, I go, hey, who gave me this? This is amazing. I thought like it was a fan tent. And my brother's like, I gave it to you asshole for like Christmas or whatever. And he's, and I posted on that, that's, that's probably the best, worst gift. I, you know, appreciation.

So. let's see little Yankee bringing the filthy the harlough show yeah it was good that he showed up it was nice that he um that he showed up to have a little chat jens shazam getting schmodeown lore i love movie trivia shmodown there's so much movie trivia and love the faction storyland it was funny because it can't be popped on before my case talking about hell and i had forgotten about this until he told me but i remembered it instantly when he started talking about are you frozen please tell me you're frozen this is a gift i mean this is a gift today i'm back there you go perfect um i can't see you now you go so anyway he came he was on and he told and he told me

um this story that i remembered instantly when he told me but i he's like you called me up and you said i got it i got to pitch something to you i got something that i know it's going to work and he's what is it i'll tell you when i get there and i and i got to the office and just pitched the shit out of the schmodeown um and that's how he he green lit it because i was so you know like when what was that 2015 or before 16 2014 was the first tournament on Shmo's No 2015 was the teams

Um and then um and then early 2016 was when I pitched it as a weekly show Oh I see what you're saying It was just kind of like a thing you used to do It was an annual tournament

Gotcha okay It was an annual tournament and I said I think we can turn a tournament to actually like a full like show like a script like you know scripted slash game show you have the scripted characters with the real game show you combine it you treat it like a sport and you do teams and singles and you do all these different things and you really change it up and i think we just started one a week i can't remember we think we just started one a week when we started but then it became popular and we they wanted to um yeah but yeah so that's kind of how it uh happens i learned so much more and they love the factions and the storyline so hey looking at one of the

greats right here. So, Kingsport Cal, my girlfriend at the time almost left me because of Shmoh down. Why? You watch it all the time or got so mad about it. Why? Curious. Harvest K. Thank you, Harvest K. Happy birthday, Christian.

Hope it'll be a great one with the family. Eat lots of pizza. I might get a pizza at the place I'm going to tonight. I'm going to eat like a slob tonight. I really am. I, Kay, happy birthday, Christian. I've been watching you since Clyder Day. I've been watching all the best and much success on the pilot.

Thanks, man. We're trying. We're trying really hard with this pilot. I can't wait to get that thing out there. What are you doing in? What? What's your audition for? Is I not, you have work today? I'm at work today. That could be why the internet. We have Wi-Fi here, but I'm not hooked up to a landline or anything. So usually it's real good, but that may be why we're cutting in and out. Okay. Well, you don't got to stick around. Too long, you've got to work in. Take your break. I just want to, I'm glad that you're you're going to take your break. I just want to, I'm glad that you. you stop by and say hi and i appreciated your video too by the you and shannon it's nice yeah stinker yeah it was hilarious tell her i said hi um mirrors you leave when you need to leave mirz have a wonderful birthday christian and that your new year might be filled with lots of awesome moments and lots of inspiration love and joy and be awesome thank you really sweet you got any screenings this week this week i mean well this week is pretty much next week i got tron on monday night oh

which I'm interested in. What else? Is New York Comic Con this weekend? Next weekend, I think. Right? Next weekend. I don't know. Wait, it's next week. I don't know.

Next weekend. It's next week. Okay. Yeah, yeah. It's next. And then, yeah, because I'm going to try to get to at least one day. I was going to try to do all of them, but now I'm going to try. I'm going on.

that um i it just depends um we'll see yeah all right luigi sherry i definitely missed but what made start writing the series also when you starting the kick starter so what made me start writing like the idea came about when i was so back in the schmose no days um we there was like used that we would do bits and everything too and and at the time like people knew that katie and i And they did a lot, like years and years and years prior. But like people started to think that Bonnie and I dated, which never was a thing. But we played into it. And we played like a fake rivalry between the two of them.

It was, it was fun. But Bonnie would come on the show and we would kind of have a back and forth. And I started thinking, you know, we funny is do like a show and similar to where you'd have like where two X's actually had to do a podcast together. And I started playing together with it and trying to figure it. And we had different versions of it. And I started trying to write it in 2014. Um, we did different, and people, a bunch of people took different cracks at it. Um, and we just never really, and some really good takes on it just never got there. So I left it alone. And I said, but it always stayed in my head. I was like, I think that there's something that we can do with that premise. So martini has been a friend for long. She's one who started Schmo's. Uh, she came to say goodbye to me, um, before I was leaving. We had coffee. And I told her about that idea. And then she's like, I'd love to see. see the script that you had written on one of the versions that I did I sent to her. And,

um, and she responded to it. And we re-gudded the whole thing. It was, it was, we started from scratch and did a bunch of stream yard meetings and said, oh, what have actually go this route instead of that because initially when we wrote it, it was written for like people in the mid-30s, you know, and now it's people kind of closer to mid-40s because with hacks and everything else. And so we changed the philosophies of what it was about and where, the backgrounds was and a lot of the backstory and things. And it just started a flow. And our chemistry was working really well.

So then we went that way and we said, well, and then like I said, I saw a lot of stuff with Chris Stuckman. I saw a lot of these things that were happening. The Schenckillis stuff. And I'm like, this is the time to do this. And so the Kickstarter is probably going to be starting, you know, once I get the final word from the producer and the director. Chris, long time.

No C. Look at Chris. Chris was what you do you remember Chris Doman Mike? I do not He was a big schmodeon reactor He used to cover the schmodeown like Oh I thought of me yeah yes

I thought you meant from this show No Chris would Chris was yeah Chris was Chris had the I would watch their reactions All the time to see how the fans were reacting A certain twists and everything too

It's good to hear from you pal I hope you're doing well thank you You watched a lot of those reaction shows I did yeah wanted to see what the audience The audience was saying how they were reacting I couldn't watch those because anytime people criticize me, I was like, I'm out.

Like, I can't say this bullshit. Yeah, I wonder who would do that. Oh, this fucking guy. That shot him. DJK is gifted 10 memberships.

Thank you, DJK. Johnny, where's baby Karas? He didn't know about the stream. I didn't, I mean, I literally think Mike found out because Luke sent an email,

I think. So, yeah, I got the email this morning. Yeah, I told Lou, I didn't even think about it. Monica, happy birthday, Christian. Thank you, Monica.

Geek Load Stars, I watched what dreams may come for the first time on Shrooms, and that movie is beautiful. I haven't seen a movie in years. What's another movie that's worth watching on psychedelics? If you want to get freaked out and watch one, but visually, the cell. Oh, man. Jennifer Lopez, Vincent DiCaprio, Vince Vaughn, I think,'s in that. Yeah, man. Oh, yeah, Vince one's definitely, uh, movie Johns. Happy birthday. And sending a shit, happy shit rats to you. That's my

favorite line for me. Do you remember the shit rats at all, Mike? I remember all these, your names. No, but you know, the shit, no, but the shit rats was when me and schnapp, we would, um, we would sit back and forth. We get, well, when we would get bored with a story, we would We would get, one that we didn't want to cover. We would sit there together and we would look at each other and we go. And when the camera would go to us, it was like, then it wouldn't say anything.

Then it would cut to him when he was like that and it would cut back and forth. We wouldn't say a word. Campi and Ellis hated it and we would do it all of the time. And I remember one time when like tensions were high. Like tensions were high. I don't know about what. So this is when you're on the show. On live or something?

No, on movie talk. And so, and I remember, I'll never forget. I don't remember what the topic was, but I'll never forget people are like bad and whatever it was. It might have been a rant by somebody. I can't remember. But she goes, and he's like, and he's like, and we did it.

It didn't go over well with the people there, but the audience loved it. Sean Petersoll, happy birthday reunion with campaign makes me miss one-on-one even more can we get more reunion shows with the schmode's mid-2010 youtube movie space people it's a possibility of doing a show like that where i can just have a show in and doing like a longer episode but he didn't clearly he doesn't have that much time he's prepping for his show and um but it just depends on when but something like that down the line of like maybe even like a one-on-one show where i like i like shows like this where it's not necessary like i'm covering there was no movie news today mike at all like nothing worth a damn there's no movie you anything. Like I had the night off the other night and I'm sitting around. I'm like, I'm going to see a movie. There was nothing out. There's nothing going on right now. The little Yankee can't be in Harlem in New York City

in early 2026. Can't wait. He's doing a show out here. I'll probably go and see what he's doing for sure. Town Matt 12. Hey, Christian, happy birthday. We actually share a birthday today. So I was wondering, what's a piece of advice he would give to your 25-year-old self? Side note, I would love to see some more anime reacts. The anime reacts, let's see how these do. And then maybe there's something that we

could do. So this I've got this question a couple times today. Again, give to my 25-year-old self, it's just like, calm down, relax. It'll work itself out. Don't be so anxious about stuff. Don't we be so like, oh, everything needs to happen now. But then again, it's the same thing. You don't wind up being in the place you're in now.

Those things don't happen. So I don't know, Mike, do you have anything particularly you would give advice to your 25-year-old? It's going to be a very practical one that the more and more I'm finding out and doing stuff with it, invest. invest. Invest, man. If you take 25 years old, take $100, put it in like a mutual S&P 500,

open up a fidelity account, man. I'm playing catch up and I'm doing okay. But if I would have just done, and I know at 25, you're like $100 a month, I got to spend it. What? Right. Do it, man.

Just invest. That's good. That's good advice. You'll be set, man. You'll be set. Jeremy Booth became a member. Thank you, Jeremy. A lot of new members here today.

Johnny Patrice, I don't know how well it would do, but have you seen the 83 movie Fire and Ice? If not, I'd love to see reaction. I haven't seen it. But yeah, if Tron, 1982 didn't do well, I don't think that one would probably do well. It'd be a tough one. Go, pal.

You guys the reaction at Tron? Yeah, the first one. And it was a fun reaction, but nobody watched it. Go, pal. I listened to Magnello on the Nerdist podcast about a million years ago. He did an amazing wrestler voice. I think Randy, can't be sure he did. I think he was a big wrestling fan.

He's a good Arnold, too. um i'm not sure larry says how have you not seen spinal tap can i pay for a watch party i'm from jamaica states but it went to base out high school oh that's cool yeah i know it's just one of those ones is one of those classic comedies that i missed did you ever see spinal tap mike i didn't you didn't see it either yeah so i was there was a whole big comedy thing that all the uh mony python stuff i i never really got into is kind of before my time's type stuff go pal haven't paid attention to wrestling since the cartoon the 80s or nerds since summer 2014 yeah

I think it was, probably was Randy that he did. He probably could, I don't know. He might have been taller than Randy. I don't even know. Renetta, big birthday. Love to you, Christian. May your day be as dope as you are. Thank you, Wra.

All the best. I appreciate it. Look, and it's, it really is. It's like, you got to make it. And it's people say this. Yes, it's work. And some people go, oh, you, you talk about movies. It's work. It's work. Like, every day, like certain things. And like, my wife and I made an agreement. Like I would work from at one point 930, 10 in the morning and I'd try to get home by like 5.36 o'clock.

In order to really try to make sure that we had more opportunities and other things too, I said, I can put more videos on the channel. I can do more things, but I've got out my hours. So from Monday through Friday, I'm working. I work late. I work late. And if I'm in the city, it's even later. but I dedicate those weekends to my family,

but it's like, but yeah, you got to sacrifice stuff, but it's work. But it's also, you got to make things exciting for yourself and want to do it. And it's especially like, and balancing like this pilot,

like you said, it's the other thing that I'll do is like, I'll put headphones on. I think of what the character will do. I went to my friend's party and I was acting in my head of the way that he would react to things. And I'm starting to see it in that way and coming up with scenarios. So it just,

you just got to live the things that you want to want to do. You know what I mean? So I hope that you're doing the same. It seems like you are. Sean McCabe, Melanie and I want to invite you and say to celebrate our 20th anniversary next month. I'll talk to you offline. Oh, my goodness, thank you.

Happy birthday, Christian, love your brother. Thank you, Orange Grove. Appreciate that. Jake. Happy birthday, Christian. Going through some super lonely times, but your comedy and personality through your show keeps me upbeat moving forward. That's really what it is. We've all been in that place. We've all been in that place before where like and I've talked about this beforehand. I can't remember what year

the schmodeown it was, but it was one of it was it was near the end and it's probably in the worst place that I was I was unhappy. Not there was two two times of my life that I was in that particularly. Clearly, you guys saw it on the air in like early 2019. It's about a year after both my brother and Schnepp had passed and I held a lot of shit in for a while and I didn't talk to anybody about it and I'll just push forward, push for it for don't talk to anybody. And that didn't work out very well. But that subsided things that better and then shmowdown, pandemic, other things. And then the way like there was a time where it did feel and they could be, me just seeing things wrongly, but I felt like it felt like everybody would go after me when

things went wrong. Right. And then heavy is the crown, right, when you're when you're running that thing. But I wasn't having fun doing the show anymore. And I wasn't getting the kind of support. I believed in the show. I loved the show. Um, differently than other things, you know, in the past where I just didn't, I never, I just, it was a bummer to see what I knew the show was. As John was talking about, when we pitched it, everything was working. There are morons out there that say, like, oh, well, the reason it started to not do well is because of the storylines and everything too. You went to wrestling with it. You're an idiot because that's how it started.

That's how the show started. It literally started with Finstock and a mask and coming out with in a Hannibal Lecter thing and then betrayals and things on that was always there. The pandemic turned it into a streaming show. And I know there's a lot of people who love the streaming. version of it and loved the game portion of it. I understand that very much so, but it was intended as a live event show. So in all that had happened and then, and we, and we talk about it on this show all of the time that there's so much content to watch that if you lose your audience, um, getting them back is hard. So when we went from live shows, everything else,

doing studio shows to a virtual show, the audience started to diminish greatly. So when we finally got back to going into the studio, I think I still think that Titans was the best version of that show ever in the production, in the storylines and all that. I think it was the best. It just wasn't, it was out of the studio versions. It was the least watched version of it. It was, I wish that I would have come up with Titans during Collider,

like started Titans then. that would have been fun. So anyway, so during all of that, coming up with, you know, storylines and then realize, and I've told this story before that we thought we were getting one budget. We ultimately went up getting another budget. There was nothing we could do with it. And it just, and there was just miscommunication of certain things.

And I say not a one bad thing about Skybound. They were wonderful partners, but it just didn't work out. But then with social media and people kind of would, and, and, And I've talked about my, like, and I felt like the people, not necessarily in the Facebook, but I felt like the Reddit people were coming after me, like every day going after that. I was just like, I'm done with this. And I was in such a dark place that I'm like, where, where am I? What am I doing?

And it was, and I've talked about how I kind of was, I felt like I was Tony Stark in the cave in the first Iron Man, just kind of hammering out the, this channel and creating this and going, oh, wait, but that's kind of a light to, a new happiness. So, and I'm not going to, I'm not going to lie to you that when I was told that they weren't moving forward with Schmowdown, I wasn't upset. Um, because I think that would that have happened in like, you know, 2019 when the show was in, when I was in that spot of Schmodeon where we were like on the up and up and then somebody said like, no, you can't do it anymore. I would have moved Hell and Highwater to make sure let's find a way for it to continue. I felt like it did everything that it could have done at that point. And where I was mentally, I don't think I just could have done it anymore.

So that's why I tell you, like, to keep moving forward and continue to move forward, because there's always a different, there's always something else that you can move to and try to do and be passionate about. And then, you know, like I said, it broke my heart when Shmoena down didn't work. But I had to, it was almost like at one point during it, because like I said, when Titans to me was my, okay, this is our, this is how you. breathe life back into it. After the virtual thing and all that, I was like, this is how you, you breathe life back into it. And, you know, spectacular works and everything too. But I said, once that budget wasn't coming in, we knew we weren't going to be able to promote it big. And I was like, I said, okay, I think, I think it served its time. It was hard, but it served

this time. Daynapper. Would you like to see a naked gun two or a Liam Neeson despired? Naked Gun 2 all day long. I loved that team. Loved what they did. Absolutely loved it. Okay. Joe for show. Hey Christian, going to New York at the end of October to take my cousin for the first time. Recommition on what to do. He hasn't traveled much.

So taking him on a trip somewhere because he's about to have a stir a kid. Take him to the village, whether it's in, whether it's Soho. I'd definitely go to Soho. But go to go to some of the places in the village or go near right into that area towards where Magnolia Bakery is and stuff too. And take him just do like a whole. tour of the city, you know, like that, that'd be, that'd be fun, I think, for people, especially of your experience. When are you going? When are you going? October. It's a good time to go. Weather still be really nice. So there you go. Okay. 165 guys. I mean, slightly toasted. I think you'll

what would you think about a remake of the movie Vision Quest? It's been one of my ideas. I think you can do it with MMA today. Absolutely. I've talked about it to a friend. And I feel like, and I'm trying to get Matt to bring it up to him, I feel like I saw an interview where Dana White is a fan of that movie.

And if so, I think that could be it. Wait, let's see. Ray, you asked me a question? Let me see. No, I didn't, Ray, where was your question? Let me double check. Hold on. Let me see. If I missed your question, let me see. I got to double check. Oh, there it is. Okay. Ray Schumer, forgive me if you've covered this in the past and or if it's taboo, but whatever became of your conversation with Star Wars theory in any case, happy birthday. Oh, yeah, no, no, no, not at all. No, I've talked to him before in the past. And he's asked me on the show. But like I've been saying, Ray, like beforehand, I don't have time to do anything.

When do you see me guest on like anybody's shows? I don't, I can't. My schedule is, and especially now, that was when I wasn't even doing all these reactions. So that's really where it isn't taboo, which is, it's nothing to do. I've always, I've always got along fine with them. And he's always been very kind to me and sent me messages and things to. We always talked and he used to come into Collider. He's like, yeah, he knew.

He understood. I said, I'm, I got, just, I don't have time to do anything anymore. So that's it. That's, there's really no, there's no exciting answer, unfortunately, right? Um, okay. 168. I like it. I appreciate it.
