#126 - Our 2026 Predictions

Hey guys, before this episode begins, we wanted to give a little announcement. If you haven't heard, Smosh is moving buildings, moving into a bigger studio. It's going to be incredible. We're moving from Rancho Cucamanga all the way to San Dimas. To Rancho Cucamanga. We're moving from Rancho Cucamanga to Rancho Cucamanga. Manga. Either way, it's going to be bigger, better. We're going to be able to do more in this space, more content, which I'm really, really excited about. We'll still have fun vibes for the podcast, of course. A lot may not look different, but in order for us to move, there's going to be a stretch where we're not going to be able to film anything because we're moving. Because of that, there will be changes to the upload schedule, particularly on the pit channel and the games channel. If you're curious about that, check out the socials, Smosh Socials on Instagram anywhere to get more updates on that. Don't stress, because we have done a lot to prepare for this move already, but it will just look a little bit different. It will be interesting and fun, and we've changed things up. Within no time, we're going to be back to normal and probably doing more, but I think we're going to level up. Yeah, I think it's time we level up. But anyways, letting you know that, now on to the best episode of this show we've ever recorded. Ever. And I'm the Smosh Mouth. I'm Shane. And I'm Amanda. And we have a very special guest with us today, Courtney Miller. Howdy-how. Woo! I was woow! Howdy-how. Howdy-how. She just, I don't know who you're turning to. Reba. Who is there? Reba. Oh my gosh. Okay, I did text Angela the other night, and I was just like, check this out. Reba, Moose Master. Reba. We're all Reba? And we always be Reba. Different stages of Reba. Different, yes. I want to be big-haired Reba. Oh. Oh, I'm sick. Come Reba. I'm fully sick. Anywhere you, Cork. I'll be like, hey, I'll be just the theme song Reba. And one of us needs to be, like, cyborg Reba. Oh my God. Oh my God. Wait. This has to happen. We have to do Reba. She did, like, a commercial recently, and I was like, what? She was like, oh my God. It's Reba. Something like, I can't see. She's awesome. She's an incredible brand to establish. Reba. Like, what's your brand? I'm a single mom who works two jobs. Who loves her kids? And never stops. What's her brand to do? Reba. I'm Reba. She's a real redhead. Yeah. Truly. Truly. Is that her natural hair color? Like, I don't know. I'm sure I know. I'm sure she's dying it now. But. Yeah. Can you reply? But like, originally. Good. She said, yeah. That's the same thing. And she does it to make it more fair. Fire. Fire. Fire. See, we're already doing Reba Moose Master right now. Reba Moose Master. I always loved our series of doing too many some things. And we always like to struggle with a game. But Moose Master is the perfect one. Perfect. Just do those. Yeah. Because it's a game for children. Yes. I can't imagine playing that game with children. Oh, yeah. You're like, no, it doesn't. Stop, Stig. You didn't do it right. Pick up a card. Pick up a card. Oh. You lost. Go outside. You lose and sit there in silence. Yeah. I don't know. You can't say, um, idiot. My thumbs here. What? What do you say? What do you say? What do you say? What do you say? Pick up a card. Finish this story. The. Why wasn't I invited to Thanksgiving this year? It's like, you pissed off all the kids. And you're like passing the whatever. I'm sorry. Because we brought Flip 7 to play with your nieces and stuff. Like, Flip 7. Perfect. It was good. But I think Moose Master would break the family. I would never want to play Moose Master. No. Moose Master here, one of the, one of the goats. It's, it's, it's literally my favorite. We get so upset with that. Yeah. Do you guys think we'll play it this year? I think we're going to play it. No, I think we're done for the year. Yeah. We're done. No Flip 7. No Moose Master. Okay. Today, I got a bubble in my throat. Well, you know what happens? You know what happens? You get it out. Sounds different. Yeah. And it sucks. And you're trying to say something serious. You know, you're like talking to me like coffee. I'm like, I don't know. Um, uh. Do you go back and go? I'm so sorry. I thought, or do you just like happen? Why did you see like nothing ever happened? There's nothing better than someone powering through something like that or powering through a yawn. You know, Ian did it the other day like on camera and I was like, you just power through a yawn. And he was like, he and Will power through yawns. Yeah. He's like, yawning and burping and talking. I feel so bad when I yawn in the middle of a conversation. You done it sewing time. Of course I do. Because you're trying to make me yawn. Don't make me yawn. Anyways, guys, we are going over our 2025 predictions that we predicted for last year. We're going to see if any of them came true. I think a quite a bit. Yeah. Yeah. We do. And then we're going to make car predictions for 2026. Yeah. And Quartz going to help us because Quartz has a lot of predictions. Yeah. Yeah. Reba is going to come to the studio. I'm already making that prediction. Okay. Reba. Whoa. What if Reba came to smash? I would love Reba as a guest. I'm not saying that she's on a video. She just comes to smash. She's just here. She just says how. She watches over Moose Master. Okay. So that's my first prediction is Reba is going to come to smash studio whether she's in a video or not. She's going to be here. She's going to meet us. Just put your arms around each other and be there. Be there. Be there. Okay. Should we look over our predictions for 2025 and mark off all the ones we got right. Okay. And they're right. And they're right. Okay. So. Wait. We can't have Quartz covered the whole time. No. I'll just say I'll bring it up for when you pay. Yeah. Yeah. So we wrote it's year of the. Oh. So this was was what was the viral animal of 2025? Do we know what ended up being like some of the viral animals? I feel like. Well, the baby hippo? Well, the baby hippo was 2024. What? Yeah. That was 2024. Crazy. I know. I know. Where? The Angler Fish. That passed away. That was just so sad. I should have said Angler Fish. I did. I should have. I did. I said whale. So I think the Angler Fish that died was like the 2025. That was a big one. So we guessed cow elephants whale hyrex. I remember. I remember. Was it an orange shark this year? Was it an orange shark? And sloth. Save to say that none of our animals were correct. We didn't. We did not nail that. I remember there was the baby giraffe that passed away, but it was the first giraffe or the only giraffe to be alive without spots. It didn't have spots. It looked beautiful. So a giraffe. There was a baby giraffe. I know, but that's sad. So sad, baby. So sad. So sad, baby. So sad. Oh, baby forever. So sad. Okay. I think we called that one a loss. I don't think we had a big hit with any of those. That's a loss. That's okay. This was a-- Should we-- Should we cross it out? I guess we can't cross it out. No, we'll just leave it unchecked. We'll mark the square if we feel this-- Where's checked out? If you're just listening right now, court is holding up a massive big piece of white paper. Yeah, give it a little sound. That's me. Big piece of white. Okay. This next one, I threw out there because I was listening to a lot of Chapel Roan. Yeah. And so at the beginning of 2025, I said, you know, I think Chapel Roan's career, it blew up so big, so fast. I think Chapel Roan's going to take a break. I think like that. That's the thing that musicians do a lot. Well, she was getting very overwhelmed with her fans because her fans are being a lot. And I kind of feel like she did take a break. She did take a break. She had to cancel a big show. And I think she, like, delayed her album. Am I wrong? That-- Well, she delayed the release of Subway for a very, very long time. But I specifically remember she had to miss a big show because of her mental health. And people were like, this diva, and I'm like, we all wanted a diva. We all wanted a diva. But you guys just couldn't handle it. Listen, no one is coming for you. You have to take the breaks for yourself. You have to give yourself self-care. Nobody is going to tell you-- Exactly. --to take a break. So I'm glad that she did. Yeah. She did go on tour. She is on tour. So I don't know if it's like-- it's a little like-- It's not like a big break. It's not like she pulled a Fiona Apple. You know what I mean? It's-- Fiona Apple. That's kind of what I-- Oh, for her. I think not quite that prediction. I think I was predicting she's going to like-- I don't know. She's going to-- OK, I don't think that's true. I don't think she pulled a break. I think she was really-- I think she was around. She was performing. She's doing all that stuff. OK. All right. Someone super famous on Bit City or Smoshmouth. Yep. I think we-- I think we-- Let's see. Well, Bob the drag queen was on-- True. Smoshmouth. Pretty big. Trixi Mattel. Trixi Mattel and Bob the drag queen. So we did have two of the biggest drag queens ever on both shows. I'd say that's pretty big. Yeah, Bill Clinton was also on Bit City. That's true for the big reveal. And Ripley. Ripley. Jack Scepticai on URL is really great on me. Jack Scepticai on Smoshmouth as well. As far as YouTube goes, like Jack Scepticai is one of the like big, legendary ones. I got to meet him, which was so-- Very cool. Very cool. And I was glad you met him not in the context of here. You met him at a party. Yeah, I met him at a party. It was very fun. And I was dumb and said, where are you from? Yeah. He was like, all right. And then he did stop by here again. We hung out. Because he really wanted to stop by. Cooler than you could ever imagine, guys. Literally very, very cool. Truly such a normal dude. Such a sweet guy. It's funny as hell. Because we've hung out with him a few times now outside of work. And it's just kind of weird to just be like, just vibing. Hey. All right, I adore him. - I think we can mark that as we got it. He got someone super famous. - Oh, sorry. - I smell the sharpies. - Oh God, Courtney's hot. - Okay, don't they don't want me? - We can show that. I think we'll get to monetize for that. - Okay. - Our van away is gonna pass out. - Okay. - Damien. - I think I did this one. - Damien will go back to white hair. He didn't. - No, I think he's all natural now. - He's been all natural. - Wow, he changed his tune. And that's fine. That's fine. Amanda, you also said a show with celebrities dancing with goats. - Yes, and I'm so glad that you mentioned that that was my pitch, yes. - That was your pitch. We need to establish you. - Here's the deal. I, this is not far off. Come on. Okay, there's no show with celebrities dancing with goats, but there are shows dancing with the stars. - And that's not a prediction because that show's been on for 25 years. - Dancing, great, greatest of all time. - Oh, Tom Brady could end up on Dancing with the Stars. - I don't know. - I watched that. - Why not? - 'Cause his knees are gonna break. - He was just playing football like a year ago. - Let's be real. He's patched up. That man is falling apart. - I don't know. That guy's like a robot probably. - I think he is actually. - I think he's a robot. His diet is like, have you ever heard about his diet? - What is it? - He like doesn't eat sugar. He eats like only avocados or something. - That is so unfun. - Yeah, he, but hey, he played football until he was 45 and he was really great. - Wow, okay. - I hate to say it. - So only one on this one, but it is a good one. - But we got it. We got someone, hey, look, out of all of these, which one did we want to come true? We wanted someone super famous on Bit City/Smoshmouth. - Yeah, and we got that. - And we got it. - And I think both. - And I think that's another prediction we'll make for this year of just. - Are we keeping track? - It's hard to keep track. We have, we're, 'cause we're a big deal now. - Should I make a sound that Riba McIntyre's coming and then also someone famous? - We got to get Riba. I've got a prediction. - Our next page. - Wedding attendee as chosen, this did happen. - Yes, it did. - This did happen. I don't know if we can find the post, but I remember seeing this, that someone, they asked permission from the bride and groom, they're like, "Can I dress up as the chosen "and be at this wedding?" And they're like, "Yes, absolutely." And so they were the chosen, out of wedding. Now also what happened this year? - Very cool, someone proposed to their partner, dressed as the chosen, while their partner was also dressed as the chosen. - Oh, I'm chosen for my husband. - Oh my God. - Wait, did you see this picture? - I'm correct on that too, right? That absolutely happened. - I think so. - Yeah, yeah, yes. There was a proposed, there was a chosen proposal. - Because we had the photo, we're gonna show it. Proposing. - Proposing. - That is commitment. - Well, you're going this journey with me. - Oh, so we can mark that off as you guys. - We can mark that off. - Oh, so, so we're supposed to get Van a white foot. - I actually like get Van a white foot. - You drop it and I just mark it. (laughing) - You give me, you're gonna breath out. (laughing) - Okay, this didn't happen and it pisses me off. Smosh acknowledged by the pro-darts community. - So, is that, really? - It was not, and I'm like, come on man, there's a win for you. - Come on, look at our video. - It acknowledged us. - What do we, what do we have a real, dark person? Come on, darts. - Here's what I want. No, here's, here's, I'm gonna throw this out. Not as a prediction, here's my dream. Like, here's a dream, Smosh video. - Okay. - Fred Darts versus Fred Durst, Darts video. - Love it, heart, heart, heart. - Are we, are we predicting, are we putting that out there? - I, I'm not gonna say it's a prediction. It's just, 'cause it's just something I really want to make happen. I, we gotta get Fred Durst to come on a games video and play darts against Fred Darts. - I can just picture Spencer being like. - Oh, he's gonna freak the fuck out. - I just wanna say, there was so many chosen Halloween costumes there. - It was a lot. It was very-- - And the chosen Brianna Boho combo always makes me happy. - It, it, it, it means a lot to me. It's really cool to see. - So cool. - What I love about the chosen two is that it's like, I don't view it as like, oh, they're dressing up as this, my character. I'm like, everyone's chosen as their own chosen. - Yeah. - I'm like, it's very cool. All right, so fuck the pro-darts community. They, they fuck-- - What are you joking? - Fuck them. - Do not say that one. - Fuck them. - They didn't acknowledge us. They didn't acknowledge us. Acknowledges pro-darts community. We'll start, we've acknowledged them. - Well, here's the thing, maybe they're just really annoyed at how poorly we played darts. - Yeah. - We're really not good. - Yeah. - So we're playing with like, magnets. - Yeah. - It's pretty tough. - Yeah. - And you just, like, you're just a rude guy. - Oh. - I just have a whole rant about you right now. - This is where it comes out, the darts. - Yeah, you're just a rude guy. This next one did come true. - Yes. - A new soda with protein. - Yes. - And there suddenly one day here at the smosh office. - I know. - Yeah. - There's like, what are these? Oh, there's sparkling waters with protein in them. - And there was like 10 grams of protein or something. - It's a lot of protein. - There was a lot. - Trust it, at all. - No, there was that like blue raspberry soda one. I really liked it. - But that came true. - That's wild. - What a weird prediction that you had, that came true. - I know, so weird. - When you said it, I was like, what are you talking? - Not only that, but protein became a complete craze. - Yeah. - This year. - Look, and I love protein, but this is getting a little weird. - Did you guys remember? - I'm like guys eat beans, eat chicken, eat, eat protein. - Okay. - But do you remember the guy in love is blind who literally put his chicken in a blender and drank it? That was hideous. Guys, let protein just be okay. - We don't need protein in it. - This just relax. - Alien goes to the White House for real, did not happen. - Totally happened. - It probably happened, but we don't know. - They're not gonna go to the White House right now. - Not right now, no, they're not. - They're waiting, they're waiting. - They're not gonna go right now. - They're just waiting. - Coca-Cola will nix the polar bear. - No. - No. - They're working with, so we're in December right now. They're working with Santa right now, but I don't think they, did they nix the polar bear? - No, I don't think so. I think they had polar bear stuff. - I just thought they're gonna move on from the polar bear. They're gonna re-brand. - I don't think they ever would. - They did not re-brand. - No. - Amanda goes, what does that say? - Amanda goes on the view. I really wanted this to happen. I think it'd be very funny if you ended up on the view. If it didn't happen. - What will I talk about? - I think you need to own them. - Oh, if you go on, just-- - Get owned by Amanda, I'll just own them all. - Yeah. - But I wanna be in like an old school blazer suit. - Oh. - Like a skirt blazer thing, and I'm just very dressed up - Totally. - We look at, can I jump back to Coca-Cola? - Yeah. - They did have a weird holiday commercial this year. I'm pretty sure it was like mostly - I think they did have AI. - And I believe there was a polar bear in it or some kind of cold animal. Disappointing, but they kept it. - And yeah, maybe I'll go on the view next year. - We'll try. What's that last one? Smoshmouth reaches-- - Reach is one million sucks. - We are so close. - We are so close. - We are so close. - I really wanted to happen. - We are so close. - It could, okay, realistically by now it's possible. We've hit it or we're very close. - That would be incredible. - As of recording this, we are not quite there yet, but it's really cool how close we are. Then all the Smosh channels have at least a million subscribers. - That's unreal. - Huge. - So pretty so far, I've been right now. - And that's not bad. - That's really bad. - Without weird Rs are. - Well, this one's, you know, the alien part is we don't know. - What's our next page? Smosh holds a video game record. Now, we don't hold a video game record, but we do hold a board game record. So, kinda can you. - Come on James, are hungry, hungry hippos? - Hungry, hungry hippos. Me and Chance hold a world record. - You're right. - For time to beat hungry, hungry hippos as a duo. (upbeat music) - Three, two, one, go. (upbeat music) - I bet you we could win. I bet you that we could make a record from most fist fights during a video game. 'Cause I know you guys have had lots of, you guys frickin' be right. - Oh yeah, we fight during video games. - And this next year, we're gonna hold the record from most Reba in one video. - I'm a fist fight, y'all. But that's not even her voice. I'll work on it. - So you're crossing off video game record. - I think we, we'll hold it. - We get us rolled a gaming record. - World record. - Yeah. - And so I think it's good enough. - I think so too. - Is there not a record for how many times we played Resident Evil or watch Spencer play? - No. - Guys, come on. - No. - Okay. - Sorry, no. Smoshmouth listeners in Antarctica. - This has happened. - We have a picture of it. - Yeah. - And it's right here. - Pretty. - I think of others that fans could do. 'Cause the chosen out of wedding is what I'm really, the chosen out of wedding is what I'm really excited about. And I, I'm trying to think of others crazy. - Oh, I had one of, someone, okay, someone will listen to Smoshmouth in Antarctica. - How do you know that's okay? - So when an Antarctica is listening to Smoshmouth. - Yay! - We got it. Thank you, Linus, like I hate. - Thank you for our Antarctica listeners. - You guys are incredible. And then finally, Smoshmouth listeners in 100 countries. I feel like this got proven to be true like immediately. - Yes. - I don't know, we haven't tallied it up to 100 countries. - It was last year, 129. - Holy crap! - I know what it is now in 2025. - So Smoshmouth is listened in 129 countries. in the country's maybe more. - Look at that! - That's very cool. We got all three of these. - That is so cool. - Well sick. It does amaze me, hearing and seeing the comments of where people are at in the world. - It amaze me that people are listening to us talk. - It's very cool. I know, I'm like, what? - I'm like, huh? It's trippy man, it's really trippy. - It is really, really cool. - But I really appreciate it. Now we move on to 2026. - We're well into the 20s, aren't we? - Yeah, the 20s. - Yeah, the 2020s. - That's, that's true. - What do you think is the better part of a decade, the first half or the second half? I almost feel like the second half is where the identity of that decade starts to really. - Have you watched a movie from the early 2000s? - The outfits are horrendous. - But we figured out. - But we figured out by 2005, you know? - I think 2008, I think 2008 was when that identity was really figured out. 2008 was like prime 2000s. - 2000, like the year 2000 was, what happened in the year 2000? - I don't know, but. - Why two K, everyone was all rattled and scared from the computer's rebooting potentially. - We weren't figuring that out yet. So I think the second half. - 2010s was weird. I feel like maybe the first half of that was a little better. - Yeah. - And then, but 2020s, I think we can only do better than the first half. First half, pretty bad. - What happened? - Yeah. - Oh, cool. (laughing) - Yeah, exactly. - You're about this? You know what this? - What? - You're about this? - Okay, 2026. Look, I gotta have hope. I'm like, we gotta have this be a good year. - Do we have a word for 2026 that you guys want? - A word for 2026. - Yeah, like a word that you're striving for. You know how people choose a word? - Oh, I'm not good with that type of thing. - Oh, well. - You have to do it. - I actually know, thank you. - No, don't open a portal right now. I'm gonna shut this portal out. - I'm gonna shut this portal out. - You're gonna do it. - I'll just frame your things, hand out each other. - Okay. - Frame two things. - I don't know if I can give you a word for it. - A word that you want for 2026. That's what I'm thinking. - Ooh. - Like, I'll go with it. - Okay, so 2025, my word was observed. - Oh. - 2026, my word is pause. So you're talking about more like intention. - Me. - Yes. - So I was gonna say like, wow. Like 2026, I think it's gonna be, wow. - No, no, not the year, like as a whole, like for what your intention is. - My intention, focus. - Love it. - Focus. - Focus is good. - You know, like just focus. - Mine can't fit in one word unless you guys can help me. - No, it's okay. - Get back on the horse. - I think that's similar to folk. - Get it up. Let's put that in. - Okay. - I did say howdy-hole when we started this episode. - Howdy-hole. - Howdy-hole or giddy-up. - Giddy-up is a good word for 2026, giddy-up. - Giddy-up. - All right. - Wow. - Okay. Giddy-up. - Giddy-up. - Paws. - Giddy-up. - Focus. - Focus. - Paws. - Giddy-up and focus. - Okay. - Okay. - A word for 2026 is re-buff. - Re-buff. - All right. Predictions for 2026. Does anyone want to begin? - SNL will be hosted by a famous TikTokker. - I really like this prediction. They have not, they have yet to really lean into like a YouTuber, internet personality. - Yeah. - I think it- - Just to pay us how to cameo in an episode, but did not host. - Like, so that's you. - They always choose a big celebrity who has like a bunch of movies going on right now. I think it's possible that SNL is gonna have a host that is just like TikTok famous, YouTube famous, which is no shade, nothing like that, but they've never had that. - Well, and a lot of YouTube TikTok people are trained sketch people that are just doing TikTok in YouTube as a means of getting themselves out there, right? - I mean, Veronica is cool, who's cast it as of right now, is from TikTok. - And Jeremy is mostly known from Dropout. - Yeah. - Like, these people would argue like, "Oh, they're internet personality." It's like, "No, they've been, "a lot of them have been doing "Stage." - Jeremy's been doing "Stage" for years. - Oh, yeah. - But they're known via that, right? So I think that's more what I'm thinking. Someone through this out there, I saw it. - When Jeremy got hired as an SNL cast member, I saw someone be like, "Dude, "if Brennan Lee Mulligan hosted SNL, "it'd be incredible." And I'm like, he would kill it. - Yeah. - Would that count as this? - I think that would count to me. 'Cause I'm like, - So we're thinking of an internet person for a dimension 20 and what he does on Dropout. And I'm like, "But is Dropout even count as internet?" - I think TikTok. - You said TikTok. I would be curious, 'cause I think usually like, most of the time I feel like when people host SNL, they're promoting something big. - It's true. I'm like, what could a TikToker be doing? Like, maybe they're gonna be in a movie? And they're promoting, but yeah, I'm very curious about this. I definitely think an internet person, at the very least. - I also think like, it would have been wild with Iron Lung coming out if Markiplier had hosted. - Whoa. - Like, see? - You get something like that? I'm like, that'd be really cool. - Yeah. - That would have been huge. Dang, missed opportunity. - Okay, you wanna hear something that would be insane? - Well, tell us. - Just for one day comes out of retirement. Jenna Marvel's host is, hosts SNL. - Oh my gosh. - Imagine that. Just like, get set out of the blue. - I think the internet would actually like explode. - Would that count as my prediction? 'Cause I would count that. I would count, I think this is gonna be one that we can kinda have like a little bit of a caveat. - Okay, an internet person. - An internet person will host SNL. - 'Cause I would also simultaneously say if like, Addison Ray hosted, I wouldn't count that because she's now not just doing TikTok. She's like, got an album. - I'm talking like, they're just on the internet. - Yeah, that's what I, that's not like, where they got their star. - That's right, so they've done movies and stuff like that. - 'Cause like, 'cause if it's like, oh, if they got their start there, then it's like, they've already done that. Donald Glover started on YouTube, so Bo Burnham started on YouTube. - Right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. Oh, good prediction. Bo Burnham comes back. - Is he taking a break? - He just, every five years he appears. - And changes your life in rattles. - Actually, it's due time for Bo Burnham to drop something. - 'Cause his last thing was, was it inside? - God, that was so kind of old. - Everything he comes out and does is like the coolest thing ever. - It's like a Massachusetts boy. - He started posting some of his stuff on TikTok in the last several months, like just kind of sprinkling it around. - I think, I think we need to normalize people taking five years off because if you want greatness, you need artists to take a break and have something to think about and talk about. - Yes. - I really do love, and I think a lot of them do it, but I love the YouTubers who drop a video every few months and they really take time. And I love that, I don't think you need to do the thing that was necessary like eight years ago or whatever, where you have to keep up your relevancy by being out there. I think people, - It's sad, I think platforms like TikTok, that's how their algorithm operates. If you take two weeks off, you feel it and your views, and that sucks, like that sucks to foster an environment like that where people feel like they can't stop and have something to think about or say, you know. - Well, to me, you're not getting quality content at all. If you are, and I know that we put out videos all the time, but it's just like, we have a huge team. If you're by yourself, it's like, we need to give artists time to cook, like to fill our cups. - I do think about that when I see people online who are posting stuff constantly. And I'm always like, man, what would they make if you gave them time? And they weren't worried about putting stuff out there every day and you gave them. - They might question themselves, which might be good, because you kind of need to like switch things up. - Totally. - You need a little bit more pressure. - Totally. - And I feel like more time gives you more pressure. That's what I feel like with TikTok is like, you're seeing stuff all the time. You're actually erasing the pressure, right? You're adding the pressure of time, but you're erasing the pressure of the quality of it. And I'm not saying that TikTokers are not doing quality work, but I'm saying like, as me as an artist, I need to give myself the time to like, like you should have a project every three to five years. Like a side big project. - Yeah. - Yeah, Emma Chamberlain has talked about this a lot and like her dad, I guess, taught her a really valuable lesson of like, you need to take a break and experience life so that you have something to say. - You'll just be a better performer. - Yeah, 'cause as an artist, you're just, like we're saying something with what we put out. Like we have an overarching message that like friendship always wins or comedy rooted in friendship here. Like we work to send that message all the time. - Yeah, and if you're not, if you're not like living your life, you don't have anything to offer people. If you don't have like a hobby that you're giddy about, that's not just your art. Like in my opinion, you have nothing to say. You have nothing that I personally can get gained from. - Mm-hmm. - I don't know why I'm on this thing, but. - Art is objective too. So like we're saying art, it can be anything that you're doing now. - Exactly. - Yeah. - Cooking, you could be like doing cooking videos. - And I know people feel the pressure right now with everything of like, they don't have the time, they don't have the money, they don't have the ability to like get that space to do that. - Yeah. - And that sucks, I think I feel for them and that I'm like, I wanna see that happen for so many of them. But part of me is also talking about not just filming it and letting the world see it. I'm talking about a conversation with a person. Like I wanna have it, like you can change people's lives just by meeting someone on the street and having a conversation with them. And I know that that's rare nowadays, but it's like that to me is what I'm talking about. It's like people, we forget that it's like, oh my resume, my TikTok, my brand. It's like, what about you as yourself? - Oh yeah. - Building up your self of things that you want to talk about. - Yeah, I get that. Like how big is your internet self and how big is your real self and which one is clouding out over the other? - Yes. - I feel that. - 'Cause you know you've met someone from the internet or like a famous person and you're like, "What's going on with you as a person?" Or people who are not on the internet and who are doing so much and just 'cause the world doesn't know about it, you know? - Right, right. Anyways, that's my rant. - I love that though. - Love that. Good start. - That's a good question. - I do. I think someone on the Smoshcast is going to either host a Red Carpet or interview on the Red Carpet. - Ooh. - That's definitely possible. - That's a good one. - That's a good one. Who do we think? - I think it could be someone like a Russia or like I would love it for it to be me. I definitely think you or Shane could be there. I think we have, that's the beauty of it. I think we have so many talented Smosh members. I think you and Tommy have already done something close to you. - I love hosting a comic. - It is so fun. And then we did three-body problem. That was really like actually interviewed celebrities that I was like, oh my god, I'm a fan. And that was intense, but I loved it. - So I guess it's theoretically happened, but you're talking about even on a bigger scale. - Yeah. - Hosting for one of my kids. - Yeah, like I'm thinking about like, obviously this is the biggest version of that, but like Emma Chamberlain interviewing everybody on behalf of Vogue at the Met Gala. - Yeah. - That's a big one. - That's probably the biggest possible. And so I'm thinking like, you know, if there's another, there's going to be another Marvel movie that comes out and it's like one of you guys, one of us like-- - Cool. - And you could do it and be in like a sick outfit. - Yeah, and that's a given. But yeah, of course, hello. - Okay. - I love that. - Thanks. That's a good one. - Okay, here's the first one I wrote down. There will be really good news for everyone. I don't know, just legit a day, everyone feels good. - How sweet is supposed to write that down? - We need that. No, we need a day that we all agree like what happened that we all felt really good. 'Cause we need to win. - I agree. - I just feel like the world needs a win. And I'm saying the world will have a win. - The world needs a win. - The world will have a win. - Something is going to be a good year. - Something or to someone or that we all just think is really awesome. - Yeah. - Any version at the end of the year if we go that happened and we all felt good about it. - I love that. That's a good prediction. - Okay. I'll move on from this one. Let's make a more specific one. A gathering of 100 chosen. - Whoa. - There will be a gathering of 100 chosen somewhere somehow. - Did we not say versus? - We were, you were joking about 100 chosen version of Sarah Christ. - This is a garage. - Sarah Christ. - There can be one Sarah Christ there, but 100 chosen. - Guys, if there's 100 chosen and then there's one Sarah Christ just in the background and all you can see is the bangs, I count that. - If 100 chosen show up to any convention, that'd be incredible. - I wanna be part of that. - You can be there. - Can we go and we get a bodyguard and the bodyguard is also just like a chosen one too. - If that is legit happening where there's like, okay, 100 or more chosen are gonna show up to this convention. Like an anime con, Comic Con. I will show up and I will try to just stay within the crowd. - You're putty. - Whoa. - Your overall stature gets recognized from a quarter mile away. - Yeah. - Not gonna be on the hide and hide. - Not if the other chosen, not if the other chosen are willing to disguise me as well. As long as they don't blow my cover. - They're gonna know it's you. - Me and butt. - If you ever are in a chosen gathering and one of us is there, be cool. - Yeah. - Do not blow my cover. - I wanna add one more just 'cause it's also a chosen thing. It's my two chosen predictions. I'm also predicting chosen on a jumbo tron. - I love it. - That's perfect. - That's also very possible. If you dress up as the chosen at any sort of event or anything and you end up on the jumbo tron, like a kiss cam or whatever, it wins. - Two chosens kissing each other on the. - Two chosens, two chosens kissing on a kiss cam on a jumbo tron, that is unbelievable. - I retire. I'm done. I'm like, hey. - Are you gonna retire with it? - I will, I'll think about it. I'll take a break for five years. - No, but that would be amazing. - That would be the peak for me. I'd be like, all right. - I love that. - You're done, you can die happy. - The best. - Okay, Amanda? - There'll be a Smosh baby. - Jesus Christ. (laughing) - I know I predicted this and it was true. - Yeah, you knew. - I knew. I'm doing it again because whatever, and it's not me. It's literally not me, no, no, no, no. But like, I'm doing it again, whatever. Whatever, maybe there'll be a Smosh baby. I don't know. - Okay. - Maybe there'll be like a baby like a kitten. I don't know. - Okay. - There could be any version of it. - Smosh baby. - Because Angela's baby from 2024, we counted as a Smosh baby. - Yes, exactly. So I'm just putting it out there. Who knows? - Okay. - All right. - It could be like a little baby for a baby as well. - I love it. - I love that. - I love that. - That's one of mine. - I wrote down Smosh Mouth. So we had Smosh Mouth in Antarctica. - Smosh Mouth in space. - Oh. - Someone watched-- - You want an astronaut being like-- - Someone watches or listens to Smosh Mouth in space. - Do you think that's possible? - I don't know. - Are you not able to? - I don't know. - I don't know if like, you know, they can get the signal up there. - But they can talk to Houston, whoever he is. - Yeah, who is Houston? - Who is Houston? - Who is Houston? - What is like-- - That's the headquarters, that's the-- - Who is Houston? - That's the-- - I know, but like-- - Yes, we were hugging around it. - It's Houston, dude. - We're joking with you, Shayne. - Johnny Houston. - Shane, learn what comedy is for once. - Oh my God. - Okay, this one's crazy because I thought I put this as a prediction, but apparently I didn't. Anthony Shaves his head. - Oh, yeah, yeah. - And this is a very good one. - Yeah, I thought I said it in the predictions last year. - So it doesn't even matter. - It doesn't matter. - Are you predicting it for this year? - Anthony Shaves his head. - Okay. - And maybe he'll hear this and just do it. - Okay. Do you want me to do another one? - I'm struggling. - That's okay. - Don't even worry about it. - If you think of one say-- - I want to read one of mine. - Okay, yeah, I don't-- - Absolutely. - My next one is new fish. I think it's gonna be a new fish. I think they're gonna discover a new fish. - Oh, I thought you meant fish the ban. There's gonna be a new fish the ban. - Why would I do that? - I was like, why would I talk about fish the ban? - Why would another ban come up and go, where the new fish? - I think there's a new fish. Well, that's how, so fish has been around for centuries and a new ban has to go and kill them and take it off. - Yeah, I know. - And take it off. - It is hours and hours my friends from home, your friends dad loves that ban. - No, my friends from home who are my age, literally spend money and go and listen to fish. - Wow. - For hours. - You're thinking there's gonna be a new fish for the already missing fish? - We get the aquarium. - Listen to fish, everyone's belief fish. - I am not gonna laugh at that. - So what kind of fish, what kind of. - Actually, this one I actually do agree. - I'm not gonna laugh at that. - So you think there's gonna be a new fish? Can you remember? - I'm not gonna discover like a new fish. - There was one, the orange shark. Did you see the thing about that, Selena? There was an orange shark where it's a rare combination of albinism and another genetic mutation. It looked like a giant goldfish, but it was a shark. - It was a new shark. - A new shark. - But that's a new shark. I'm saying like a new species is gonna be, like we're gonna discover a new fish. - And they're discovering new shit all the time, right? But I think it's gonna be a big deal and everyone's gonna hear about it. - Like deep under the water? - Maybe, it could be anywhere. - What is this fish? Can I look like big, small, medium? - That's way too detailed for me to predict. - What? - I don't know. I think it's gonna be a funny, it's gonna be funny. - Funny? - I think a funny new fish. It's gonna be like this funny looking fish. - Okay. - I think it's dumbass that I've discovered. - Okay. - He's hiding all this time. - I think we both have this one, but I think there's gonna be a Smosh version of Flip 7. - Oh, I wrote that down. I want a Smosh version of Flip 7. - I think there's gonna be like cute little pictures, like drawings of each cast member of like how they apply to that number or like the second chance card and then it has a picture of chance in a heart. - Oh my god, I love that. - I think that Flip's, 'cause Flip, we love Flip 7 and Flip 7. And I think my love was right back. And so maybe that could be really cool. - Wait, that's actually brilliant. I, we play the game here with Reba. - And then we play it with Reba. - Yeah. - Wait, that actually gave me an idea that you just said that. I predict that we have a tarot card set made of all Smosh. - Okay. - Smosh people, Smosh characters. - Okay, Smosh Tara. Like Queen of Swords is like. - Okay. - Sarah Christ or something. Okay. - I don't know, that would be sick. - That would be cool. - Do you know that back in the day with tarot or they call it tarot? They would have Kings and Queens would have like an artist recreate their like family lineage in tarot cards. - Oh wow. - So they would literally get like a made tarot set of their entire family. - I don't know if sick that is. - Wow, that's beautiful. - We all got our tarot card thread at the holiday party here. - That's what I was thinking about, and I got Queen of Swords. - I forget what I got, but I was, it was about water. - So you got cups. - And then someone spilled their drink on you? - No. - That would be really great. - Yeah, you were really drunk. - What did you get? - That part of the chain. - Um, I got a guy carrying some stuff on a, I don't know the name of it. - No, everyone was, it had like a dry garden, a dry desert below it. - It was like a dry desert below it. - Oh, eight of, eight of ones? - Yes, there was ones or sores or something. I think it was ones. Anyways, I have another one. - Yes. - Please. - Go ahead. - I think a light night show is going to do a D&D. - Okay. - I think there's gonna be some kind of like, Jimmy Fallon playing like a one shot or something. I can, you know what I mean? - I like the prediction that network TV is gonna try to do D&D because it's been so big. - I, yeah, 100%. - Critical roll and Dimension 20. - Imagine Jimmy Fallon playing D&D. - Like Jimmy Fallon is playing D&D with like, Kendall Jenner. Like it's gonna be, it's gonna be, no, I'm not even joking, because I see it. - I see it. - I see it. - I see it. It was a years ago, but it was huge. Let me, everybody got to see that first episode and then the rest was behind the paywall like, validly so, but it was incredibly done. And like, all those drag queens still talk about it. They all got to dress up as their characters for Halloween this past year. Like, it's huge. So yeah, I definitely think like a late night show where the traditional media circle is gonna somehow take on D&D. - Wait, I love that. - I love that. - That's a really good prediction. - Can we, can we all jump in on this? What's the viral animal for 2026? - Ooh. - I think my new fish prediction is kind of like mine. - God, you're new fish. - I'm leaning into my new fish. - Your new dumbass fish is what he says. - Whoa. - You said dumbass. - Hey, look, angler fish was big for 2025. That would have counted. - I didn't hear about this. - Yeah, the angler fish that died. - Okay, can you tell me more than just that? - It's the most famous thing they can do. I actually don't know. - The first time that an angler fish was like caught on. - Fully captured on camera. - Yeah. - They're the ones with the little light. - With the little light. - It was starting to swim up and float into it's. - Into it's ascension. - Yeah. - Is this name like angel or something? - That's really sad. I just made it more sad. - It wasn't like angel or something. - It wasn't as precious angel or something. - Probably her name. Male angler fish are really, really tiny. - Of course, that makes sense. - And they attach themselves to the female. - And then they die, they become a ball sack. - So they become clingy and small? - They become a tiny little ball sack attached to. - That makes so much sense. - What a life. - They just, I just love that male, male, I just love that male angler fish are just honest. - Yeah, they're like, they just become what they are. - I'm a ball sack and I'm gonna stay with you forever. - I'm gonna die and become a ball sack for you. - Wow. - Truly. - Okay, I think the viral animal is a turtle. - I love that prediction. - Yeah, I think a famous turtle's on there. - Well, I said that chain's gonna get a turtle, but I'm ex, I saw that and I was like, I was like, not vibing, I didn't even say vibing. - I'm exing that. - I think turtles as a kid. - I think the turtle, I think the viral animal of 2026 is gonna be a turtle. - Speaking of five year breaks, having a turtle is like that. They disappear for like a year or two and then also they just show up again. You're like, where the hell have you been? - 'Cause it go on the ground or somewhere cold and wide. Also, wasn't there a turtle who went viral the last year, the year before that, like just saved his species by being a total stud? - Damn. - Do you know what I'm saying? There was a big, there was an old turtle that just got every female turtle, Pregnano. - Whoa, that turtle was slaying it. (laughing) - Swinging it. - Wasn't there a galota ghost turtle that just died that was alive from like the 1800s? - Yeah, and you like talking about animals dying. (laughing) - I just kidding. I'm kidding. - That's the most dangerous. - There are eyes, we are. - Wait, so it is my dream to go on the Galapagos with my mom and my sister. We've talked about it for years, but you can't stay on the island. If you wanna go, you have to do like a scuba dive tour and you have to stay on the boat for like a week or something. - Whoa. - And that is my ultimate dream. - Interesting. - That's what I wanna do. But I'm like, can I be on a boat and dive that many days and not? - I love animals that are specific to one island 'cause like Galapagos tortoises and then Kodiak bears. Like they get real weird on some of those islands. - I always think maybe-- - Well like Kodiak bears are like the biggest bears fucking ever. - Hey 'cause they're all on their own. - 'Cause they're on this tiny little island where they have so much fish that they're all just huge. - Yeah, just having a great time. - It's buff. - I think a primate is gonna do something new. - Oh, like an orangutan? - I think a primate with a grilla or a monkey or a chimp, I think they're gonna do something new. Do you know what I mean? - So monkey or primate? - Huh? - Munkies? - Primate I thought was like all of them. - Primates, or wait, I guess-- - I think it's our fact checker right now. - 'Cause those apes, but they're all primates, right? - Yeah. - Oh. - Nice. - She won. - One corny zero shape. (laughing) - Who will win by the end of 21 seconds? - We're gonna do something new, like braid hair. They're gonna, like, you know how we've had some videos where it's like, oh, this bird is using a tool. - Or learn C++. - Like what's that? - The coding language. - I think it's our strategy. - It's like, we left all these monkeys in a room with a typewriter and they learned Python. - I just mean like whether they're observing them in the wild or in captivity, not like a monkey that's being trained to do something. - Yeah. - They're gonna do something new. - Yeah, they're gonna do something new. - Okay. - They're gonna do this code stuff that you just drop. - Like sing. - Could you imagine that? (groaning) - Like singing this song. What if they learned? (singing) Like what if? (laughing) - I, okay, did you guys have the thing? Everybody does this, writ their own pet, where at some point you have a private conversation with nobody around, with your pet and you go, if you can talk, you can talk to me and I'm not gonna tell anyone. (laughing) - I, I've done that. - I don't know if I did that because I know that they talk, they talk telepathically to me, so. - Okay, I wanna, I wanna hear them talk out loud. - And did it ever work? - No, it never worked. - They just look at you like. - My dog was just like. - And I just do. - I'm like, come on dude. - Feed me. (laughing) - And it was like, wait, did I hear that? That's pretty cool. Okay, so my viral animals turtle, I guess your guys are. - Mine's a primate. - I said new fish, man. - Oh yeah. - Relax, don't just think. - New fish. - He said. (laughing) - The band. - Oh. - Okay, my next prediction is that Barack Obama's gonna shout out Smosh. - Oh no. (laughing) - What? - I love him. I just don't think he's gonna stoop to our level. - No, he won't. - Whoa, he's gonna stoop. Hey, it's not that far. - Gonna stoop? - He's just gonna take a half step. - He is so above, I'd like, but it's nice. - But also Barack Obama's so cool. - Come on Obama. - Come on Obama. - And can I add on to that? If it's not Barack, it's Michelle. - Michelle, shouting out Smosh would also be cool. - Michelle, I mean, I'm becoming a fan of Smosh. - Michelle was on Vine. So like I feel like there's a little more digital connection there, like maybe, like we get one of those like, - I don't want to. - Keep it, it doesn't believe. - Counts, doesn't believe. - I'm like, are we cool enough? I'm amazed every day at how we're actually cool. Like we won awards this past year. Like, my five year prediction is that Smosh is gonna get a Golden Globe. But I can't put it on. - Golden Globe. - I think Smosh is gonna get a Golden Globe in the next five years. - Okay. - What? - I know they, don't they have a podcast category now, I mean. - I don't think that's the one. But like, you know, we're doing some big crazy podcast. - I don't know. - And it's your show. - Inner or no? - It's just this episode. I guess Smosh, what if, you know, what a Smosh. - We're not gonna write that one down. - Guys, we're dreaming big and I love that. We're dreaming big. We're throwing them out there, you know. - Broccoli bomb is gonna say. - Okay. - Moose master is a fun game. - There's gonna be some sort of charity event. He's gonna go to somebody say meatloaf and then we're gonna all, that was a Smosh reference. Okay, here's another one that I think is doable. But it's very fun. Robert Irwin gets his two cans out on this show. Imagine Robert Irwin shows up with two cans. - I love that. Get your two cans out. - Get your two cans out. - That would be amazing. - Robert Irwin on this show. If Robert Irwin brought animals to Smosh. - Say Robert Irwin three times fast. - Robert Irwin, Robert Irwin, Robert Irwin, Robert Irwin. - I gotta say, he looks like he could be one of my siblings. - Yeah. - You guys look really good. - Do you guys see my family photos? - Bring him on. - He looks like my brother. - Bring him on. - Okay. - Robert Irwin is definitely a dream guest. - That would be a dream guest. - Robert Irwin is gonna get his two cans out. I love it. - I love it. - I don't know if he does, does he do birds? - I feel like they're very specifically like, they're specific animals that they, and I don't think two cans are an Australian animal, right? - Two cans are also in like Costa Rica too. - Yeah, I don't think two cans are an Australian. No, I don't know if they, I feel like Robert Irwin can handle any animal. - Two cans are typically tropical. - Yeah, it's tropical. - Right, I know they're tropical. I just feel like they're South America, right? - Central South America. - I don't know if they're South America. I'm not sure, which one? - Oh, so let's like, so. - Central South. - Central South. - Central South, so one, one, one, we're now one, one. - I don't think. - You were zero. - But I got a point for that. - I got a point for that. - I said Central South. - No, and I said South and you said I was wrong. - A man's one, Courtney's one, and Shane is zero for talking about that fish that nobody knows. - What are you talking about? (laughing) - When this fish shows up, you guys are gonna, you guys are gonna be so, sorry. - No, I won't, no, because you don't have a description. - Oh, sorry. - You're gonna, no, this fish is gonna show up and you're gonna be like, oh my god, that's the fish you were talking about. - And I'm gonna go, I don't know what this dumbass fish is. - I'm gonna fucking know. All right, next one, Amanda. - You have so many. - I'm so excited for you to respond to this one. Spencer's gonna meet Hideo Kojima. - You think I know who the F is. - I wanna hear who you think Hideo Kojima is. Describe it. him as a person. Like why did you say it's so mean? 'Cause he is Courtney, Courtney. Shane is so mean. He's actually the meanest person I've ever met. And I, sometimes I'm like, here we go, another Smosh Mouth Day with Shane. He is so mean. I'm just kidding. He's actually the nicest person I've ever. What? - Hideo Kojima. - Hideo Kojima. Who do you think? - Japanese. - Nailed it. - Okay. Just like vibe. - Road? - Just vibes. Don't worry about his career. - Where's glasses? - Yes. - Where's glasses? - Yeah. - Where's cool jackets? - I'd say he wears cool jackets. Okay. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - What I was gonna say. - I'm describing personality. Like just what do you think is vibe? - He's a creator of a video game. - Well yeah, you're getting all the facts. - He loves little key chains. - What are you saying? - You asked Amanda who he was, and then you're-- - You're Nailie. - You're a pinhole. - Of course I'm Nailie. - Oh, you're getting the facts right. - But what? What are you asking about? - What did I do right now? - I'm asking like as a character, if like-- - 42, by the way, and you're a character. - Yeah, yeah, for sure. - Yeah. - For sure. - Yeah. - Okay, I was gonna describe, like describe like, like how would you describe Sarah Christ? So it's like, oh, she's like this talk. - Well, I just said tiny little key chain. Do you know what he's like? - The day of Jima. - He's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's a little introverted. - Okay. - I don't even know. He likes ferrets, but that's like a side thing that he doesn't tell a lot of people. - He, oh God, is he a character? He like a, no, he's a real person. - He's a real person. - Okay. - He, no, you've nailed it. You have nailed it. I'm not saying-- - He has like a whole, like, he has, he's like, pocket pens, not on him. Back in his minimalist desk with one plant. - That's kind of doing well. - That's probably pretty accurate. - He has a very giggly laugh, but he doesn't show it that often. - I don't know if I've ever heard him laugh. - Okay. - He's a serious man, but his brain is like, amazing, colorful. - Yeah, you have actually described him to a T. - Yeah, and Spencer wants to meet him. - I think if Spencer met Hideo Kojima, it'd be very funny. - 'Cause he's the creator of Nintendo? - No, no, no, no, no. - That's Miyamoto. Or not Miyamoto. Nintendo's been around since 1800s, but, oh, holy shit. Hideo Kojima made a bunch of games that Spencer loves, like Metal Gear Solid and Death Stranding and stuff. He's a, frankly, I love his video games. He's a fucking weirdo. He's an absolute weird dude. - Wow. - He is? - Yeah, like just the way he described, like, he's just an art, like, a weird artist type of mind. - He's an accent. - And I see what he looks like. - A very accent. - For his name? - Just, he's just kind of just a dude. - That's what I had in my head. - Yeah. - Literally. - You did describe him. You described him physically to a T. - You should've said T. - But he's a very eccentric artist, right? Like, he's, I'm trying to think, he's almost like the David Lynch of video games. - Oh wow. - Where it's like, what the hell is going on? It's like, we don't know. - But there's a huge group of people who are like, I'm obsessed. - Absolutely. - We have a huge person on the OG Smosh game dates when we were around at like a video game designer. Was it the guy who made Mario or like, what was it? - Yes, yes. Mario, Miyamoto signed Ian had a Game Boy Advance signed by him. And I think Ian lost it, or doesn't know where it is. And I'm like, damn. - He's just like, I'm going outside with this cool thing that I have. - Whoa. - Whoa. - Yeah. - Miyamoto's arguably the most legendary video game person. - Take it, got a sword signed by him, has it at his place and says that he is the one person that we've had that he's been like star struck. - Aww. - Tim, Tim star struck by Miyamoto is so, that's right. - That's accurate. - So why are we talking about this guy? - 'Cause Spencer, so that's the goal is, it's Spencer's going to meet him. - Spencer's going to meet Hideo Kojima. - That's the prediction. - I think that's just, I just think it's going to happen. - He lives in Japan 24/7. - I think he travels around quite a bit. - I think it's very possible for them to meet somewhere, somehow. - Some way. - And can I do a prediction when Spencer meets him? He's just going to go, what's up man? - Oh, they're going to say. - That's it. - They're vibes I think are probably pretty identical in just like, what's up dude? Sick man. - Wow. - Yeah. - Great minds. - Yeah, my specific prediction is, they're going to dab each other up. - Oh, that'd be cool. - I've been teaching everybody in the office how to dab up. - You didn't teach me? - Oh, they're right now, ready? - Okay. - Yeah, I'm not. - Move your hand on the other side of the mic. - Why do I do things that are cool? - You're going to lose a point. - Why do I do things that make me look on cool? - Be careful. - So, you know how there's that thing. - What side do I do? - But don't separate, just relax. The main thing is relax. Slap and relax, okay? Okay. Dude, give me one more time. You see what I did? - I slapped him right last time. - Did you see what I did? And then there's a little grab at the end. - Okay. - Oh. - Oh, that was rough. - Shit, dude. - I'm slapping and relaxing. - Okay, just like a side high five and a little bit of a grab. - Okay. - You know what I'm saying? - Yeah. - And quicker. - Okay, it's getting there. - No, no, no, not that. (laughing) It's just like a hug. - I want to pull, you know? - It's a smack and a hurt and a pie. - Smag and hurt and a pie. - Okay. - Okay, so like I'll sooner. (laughing) - I mean, just stop doing shit. - And then I'll show you dumb. - And I'll show you the Gen Z newer version. - Okay. - Which is more about your show. - Dude, it's a shame. I'm done. - Let's show Amanda the dappet by first show, dude. - Yeah, I can't wait for you to not do well. - Okay, so this is the, and you are robot. And that's fine. - That was hard to watch. - Oh my God. - Oh my God. - This is an awkward position. - Oh, you're literally at zero still. Still points. Zero. - You're hitting me too hard. - He's in an aggressive mode. (laughing) - Just be chill. - Be chill. - Oh my God. - Oh my God. - What are you doing? - Oh my God. - Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. - What's up my guy? - What's up my guy? - That's possible. (laughing) - What's up my guy, ready? That was roughly what it is. A dappet. - Zero. - A Gen Z new dappet. - Whoa! - But there's sometimes when you get that pop. - That's what we gotta get. - Gotta get that pop. - Yeah. - That was way worse than what I did. Mine was like Lucy Goosey. And yours was like so aggressive. - I know. - I'll work on it with you guys. - Thanks. - But I think Sons is gonna dapp up a huge game designer. - Okay, there's a good prediction. I think there'll also be in a Smosh video in 2026. There will be a dapp up. That will be like legendary. - Like the! - Like it'll go viral. It'll be our short from that episode. It'll be like, whoa, it sounded, it was like. - A viral dapp up. - A viral dapp up on Smosh. Okay, I have one last one that has nothing to do with Smosh. - Okay. - We will find something on another planet that is pretty cool. - So you're not being specific. And I struggle with this. - You're scared. - You're probably gonna, yeah, you're scared, man. - I like some kind of vague ones. - I don't like it. - I can make 'em whatever I want. There's gonna be a new fish and there's gonna be something on another planet that's a pretty cool thing. I think they're just gonna be, these are headlines that are gonna be this year. - Ooh, you have to be specific. Otherwise, I can't look for it. You have to like, is it a rock? Is it a bug? Is it a shoe? Is it an insect? Is it a bug? Is it a ray of sunlight that was caught underneath a pool that, and the pool is metal? - Is it a bug? - Okay, fine. - Is it quick silver? - Okay, fine. A really interesting natural, not gonna say like life, like, or civilization, whatever. I think there's gonna be a really cool natural structure on a planet. - That makes us go, whoa. - Look at this like crystal like, crystal mountain or something. - Crystal mountain, okay. - Like, it was just something crazy. Just being like, whoa, look at that. We would never find anything like that on that. - Crystal mountain, I can. - And there it is, right there. - Okay, you're doing point. You have one point. - You're doing great, you're doing great. - Yeah. - Oh my god. - Yeah, don't crack here. - You're doing great. - But the city baby, crystal mountain, and I love, now I can picture it, now I can find it. - We'll talk about this in a couple of weeks, but who do you guys think is gonna win the Super Bowl? - Oh my god, I love this question. This is like my favorite question. I've actually been dying for you to ask me. Not Kansas City because Patrick Mahalms got hurt by the first time in 10 years that he got hurt. - Yeah. - And I know that. It really does suck that he got hurt, 'cause you wanna see awesome players play. - Yeah, he's incredible. - I will say, they were not gonna go to the playoffs, even whether he's- - No, I knew that. I just wanted to preface that I noose. - Yeah, but it was a nightmare season for them. - Nightmares. - It was a nightmare season. - Of course, it was. - Big nightmare. - Yeah. - Kept me up at night. Very hard to sleep. (laughing) - What, to throw a team out there? - I think the Broncos could do it. You're nervous that I said that, no, I'm sorry. - I can't do that. - I think I feel it in the air. Coming in the air tonight. - Bangles. - Broncos gonna win the bowl. - Bangles. - No, and I just wanted to throw that out there to put it up. - Bangles. - They've also had a nightmare season. - Nightmare. - Oh, I know. Kept up all night. Literally, I could not sleep. I was like, "Bangles, what are you guys doing to me?" - No. - I sleep. - Sure. - Not the Patriots. I know. - Actually, real good chance, real good chance of winning, no, the Patriots. - Patriots. - Patriots. - I hate to say it. - Why do you hate to say it? - Not to use you. - Because they've gotten, they've gotten enough. - Excuse you. - They've had enough. - We never had enough. - Okay. - No. - No. - No, we haven't. - They were not. They need to be dormant for a while. - Afterment? - Afterment? - Dormant. - Week's experience winter for like eight months were already dormant. Let us have this. (laughing) - You had seven of 'em. - The pets, go pets. - I'm gonna say the pets. - God dammit. I'm gonna be so mad. - It's gonna be huge. If the Patriots and the Broncos go to the Super Bowl, they are gonna piss on the mouth. - So they cannot both go to the Super Bowl. - Shows and Kiscam, Broncos and Patriots, Kiscam. - The Broncos and the Patriots cannot both go to the Super Bowl. - Why? - 'Cause they're both in the AFC. So they would meet in the AFC Championship. - Oh, before he tries to. - And one of, and they would decide who of the two of them are gonna go to the Super Bowl. - Who are the two of them? - And that would be my nightmare scenario. - So okay, Shane, who do you think is gonna go to the Super Bowl? I love this. - Who do I think is gonna go and then who do I think is gonna win? - Oh yeah, I love two-part question. And so fun. - It's true. - It's true, Shane. - Okay, okay. All right, it's like a personal thing. It's like a jinxing thing. I don't want to say the Broncos. I'm not. I'm not gonna say it. Okay, I don't wanna say it and then be wrong. So I'm gonna just not acknowledge them. If I were a betting man, fully betting man. - Yeah. - Here's a weird one. I'm gonna say Texans Rams. The Rams win the Super Bowl. - Okay. - Versus who? - The Texans, the Texans and the Rams. - Right, of course. There are two different teams. (laughing) You know, Rams who are Texas. - I was like the Texans Rams and. - Yeah, we're gonna have more episodes that will be closer to the Super Bowl. Where will your world know? - You think the Rams are gonna win the Super Bowl? - If I had to put money on it, I would say them. - Scott. - Whoo. - Scott's feeling it. - Scott's a Rams fan. They're just really good. - Can I, is there room for one more? - Yeah. - Yeah, throw it up. - Wow, incredible. - Good on you. - Good on you, Chief. - You got a point for that, 'cause I enjoyed your excitement. - Yeah. - I am excited. - It's been a fun year. - Okay, my last one is, I feel like coming out has kind of been not as big of a thing. In the last few years, I feel like a lot of people of influence or big public figures are like, it's just like a kind of goes without saying and like, we'll casually say who they are and like, but I think in 2026, we're gonna have a big coming out. Someone is gonna come out and it's gonna be huge. - And it's gonna be that fish. (laughing) - Shut up. (laughing) - Oh, come get 'em. - I think that's a really cool one. - I think someone's gonna come out and it's gonna be someone where like, oh shit. - Wow. - I love it. - Like a huge surprise and it's gonna be like awesome. - Yeah. - I'm being supportive. I genuinely like that prediction a lot. - You're getting about the fish. - I think that's a fun prediction for Smosh to make. Like, I think it's cool. - Exactly. Are they going to be like a celebrity? - It could be. - I think this is unfortunately one of my vague ones where it could be celebrities or celebrity we know or just like someone in the space. - Somebody is coming out and it's gonna be big. And they cannot wait. And it will be the fish that we have no idea what it looks like and somebody else. - You guys, when this fish shows up-- - Oh, I can't wait. - We just have no idea. - I actually don't have any idea because I don't know what the fish is. - I can't wait to see a primate perfectly gut a fish that we've never seen before. - Oh. - Are you guys okay? (all laughing) - Wow. - A monkey learns how to play chess and beats me at chess. - That would literally pay money. - It would be tough. - To watch that. - That would be tough. - Okay, we are going to recap our 2026 predictions because Selena is incredible. Not only is she directing and producing, the episode she's also writing them down. - And writing effects. - Also, my 2024 version, fuck. I gotta go. - My 2026 prediction also is that Selena gets a god mic. - Whoa. - Use, oh, which means she gets to have a mic and talk to you guys without having you guys have to. - I love it. - Whoa. - I kinda have it. - Oh, I was right. (all laughing) - Okay, okay. - Okay, we have Reba at Smosh. - Yep. - We have a TikToker host, SNL. - Star internet person. - Internet person. - Love it. - Smosh cast interviews or hosts on a red carpet. - Yep. - The best day. - Best day. - We're gonna have a day that all of us agree and I think you guys in the comments throughout 2026, you keep up us up to date on what you think counts as that. - The best day. - We need to be an agreement about that one. Smosh Flip 7. - Up set. - There will be a Smosh version of Flip 7. - Yep. - A Smosh version of a tarot deck. - Yep. - A late night show does D&D. - Huge. - I like that prediction. I think that could happen. A year of the turtle. - Yes. - Turtle will be the viral animal of the year. Primates will do something new. (laughs) - I like that one a lot too. I love animal predictions. The Obama's shouting out small. - Oh, I love it. - The Obama's. - She put the Obama's. - The Obama's. - The Obama's will shout out small. - Who could be Michelle or Brock? - A gathering of 100 Chosen's. Chosen on a jumbo tron. - Yes. - Smosh baby bringing it back. - Smosh baby. - You love it. - Oh. - You can make that one come true for us. - Yeah. - It might be for this video. - Oh no. - My favorite prediction. New fish. - Discover. - New fish discovered. It's gotta be a new fish that is discovered. It's gotta never be seen before. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Never been seen. - Robert Irwin gets his two cans out on Smosh mouth. - Oh, that would be amazing. - Let's get him here and let's get him to bring two cans. Or a cool bird or something. - Yeah. - The answer will meet Hideo Kojima. - Who you now know? - Who you not know and I guess perfectly. I love. - You should, the next time you guys are doing resident evil or like sitting down with a game with him. - Hideo Kojima. - You just need to throw out that name casually. - And he'll go. - And he will truly be mind blown. Just be like, oh my gosh. So, I mean, I just be like, oh, I love Hideo Kojima. Like I love the way he's done. - He, I'm very excited to see him. - Yeah. - Okay. - Smosh viral dap up. Which we displayed very well. - Absolutely, what those are, yes. - Something on another planet that's cool natural structure. - For Stone Mountain. - Yeah, something like that. And then we wrote down Rams win the Super Bowl. - Wow, these are really good predictions. - Yeah. - Oh, one more. - Oh, and a big coming out. - Big coming out. Get his own page. - Big coming out. - Get his own page. - All right. - Okay. - Big coming out. - Ooh. - Wow, I'm very excited to see. - She's gay. (laughing) - Honey, she is gay. - I guess, probably. - She's like, whoo! - Okay. - Guys, these are our predictions. If they start to come true and you notice them, comment. - Comment. - Please. - Let us know. - Leave a vigilant online. - Yes. - Let us know what your best win day is. And I can't wait to see that fish. - I can't wait to see the fish too. Courtney, thanks for being here. - Courtney, thanks for being here. - Thanks for having me. Sorry, I got y'all fired up. Sorry, I've been aggressive this episode because I'm excited. Sorry, I'm so-- - All right, it's not aggression, it's excitement. - I am excited for this new fish. - I'm excited for this new year. - I'm gonna say, what if I dab up a monkey? - Oh my god, I'm really so full. - That would be viral and a primate doing something we've ever seen before. - I think you actually just lost one of your points. All right, Courtney is winning and we are just trying to do our best here. See you guys. - I love you. - Love you. - This fish is gonna be awesome.
