- Hello, welcome to Smoshmouth, I'm Shane. - And I'm Amanda, that's me, and we have a wonderful guest for this today. It's Spencer. - What up, guys? - No applause in the room, that's crazy. Come on guys. - No, they're saving their applause. - Come on guys. - They're saving their applause because while filming this, we just found out that we hit one million subscribers. - Woo! - Like what, and it's our first time shooting in our new set. - Yeah, like, and that gets no applause. - Whoa, guys. - Too much stuff. A million subscribers, a new set, and Spencer? - What? - Too much. - I think you guys should have just a little applause button. - Just to like say-- - And it's just Lady Gaga. - A pause, a pause. - I think we'll keep it over here, so that Amanda does that. (laughing) - We've seen Amanda with a soundboard. - No, I want the soundboard. - No, Amanda with the soundboard is devious. - I was just on Miles Pod and damn, I was like so envious of a soundboard. He has a big fart sound. - He's good at it, too. - He is, he's like, oh my god, that's crazy. - He's like a fart DJ. - Should we get one? - Yeah. - We should get one. - Most Mommy Selena just said that we could get one. - Mommy Selena? - Yeah. - I don't know. - Do you think the stories on Miles Podcaster are real? - Yes. - I think so, too. - I've often wondered. I'm doing it on Saturday. - I think so too. Well, we did three that were, I'm not gonna spoil it, but they were epic, and one was, she was not an America, and I thought she was British and she was not, she was Dutch and whoa, did I get my ass handed to me? - Damn, now I'm gonna go in on Saturday. I'm gonna be like, oh, you're bullshitting me, dude. I don't believe you. Face time me. I hope you do that. - Spencer, okay, do that. - I hope you do that. - That we're talking about perfect person, Miles Podcaster, perfect person. If you haven't listened to it, it's so good. - Wait, how do fans feel? I want to know in the comments. How do you guys feel that we don't have a table? - Yeah, so we don't have, for those listening, we don't have a table anymore. - Yeah, for those listening. - And also, our chairs are like, we went from like, we were sitting in like school chairs. - Yeah. - Nair literally. - They're like plastic school chairs at the Borde F table. To now, look at this, yeah, we're in our new studio. We are, in our new Smoshin' on the studio, we're also fully Smosh is in our new studio. - Yep, so everything is shooting in one place, which is amazing. We're in Oxnard, it's really, it's really a cool place. - Oxnard's great. Yeah, we're on the fifth story. - Fifth story. - Of a building, most of it's lofts, most of it's like condos and-- - Downstairs is a hair salon. - Yeah. - Really wonderful people. - I know. But we managed to get one floor just for us to have all our studios in. - I love it. - It's a great defying. - Kind of? - 'Cause it defied, we had the, we had the, we'll, I feel like y'all would talk about it back then, but they were above an MRI imaging building. - Yes. - But you would hear the MRI machine. - It was insane. - Oh my God, the MRI machine is so loud. - Yeah, yeah, you'd feel it. Couldn't wear jewelry on certain days. You'd get sucked to the floor. - Yeah, just bam. - I would love a magnet room. - What does that mean? - All right, go on. - I'm pitching, I'm gonna pitch it. Every time you walk in, if you're wearing jewelry, uh oh, whoops for you, you're gonna get stuck to the ceiling. - What if you have like a clitorial piercing or something? - Wow. - She, you went right in. - You went straight to that. - Jumping. - Right in. - Yeah, it's just, it had a funny clitorial. - What if you had a clitorial? - Yeah, a clitorial. - What if he had nipple piercings? - Yeah. - Yeah. - True. - With that of, with that of hit the same? - No. - No, you're right, man. Hey, we stand corrected. - We're right. - Anyways, guys, we're here to talk about the new studio. We're here to, we're here to talk about how the pot is going to maybe shift in these comfy, comfy, comfy chairs. We're also here to talk about that we hit one million subscribers and we could not have done it without you, the listeners, the fans, we love you guys so much. - Yeah. - And here to help us do all that is Spencer. - I think I just had a realization that I might not be subscribed to Smoshmouth. - Oh, that's cool. - And we don't, and I will literally-- - And you were talking shit before we started recording too. - Like, we're not talking shit, but I'm like, I am surprised 'cause you guys have routinely like such high performing episodes. It's like, you know, how do you reach over a million views? And I know such a stupid question, like reach over a million views when you don't have a million subscribers so regularly. And like, 'cause I guess like to me, this does feel like content that would cater to someone like a subscriber of the Smosh ecosystem. - Yeah. But have you ever watched an episode of Smoshmouth? - Yes. - So, and you're not subscribed? - Yeah. - So I guess that's kind of my advice. - So it's like, I think it is, you're right. Like, I'm just, you kind of almost assume you're subscribed. - I think that is the case. I think YouTube is kind of like the for you page situation where it just recommends you shit. And that's kind of-- - Are you subscribed? - I should be. - We look at neither of us are subscribed. - I was not subscribed. I think I got called out for it at one point because I had a screenshot or something uploaded. And I had not been subscribed to Smoshpit for like the first eight years of working. - Wow, you didn't like the content? - Yeah, it was like, no thanks. - You feel so far away. - I know, it's we are much farther. Actually, how much further away are we? - Yeah, let's test this theory. - I wonder, I think you're definitely farther away. - We're definitely farther away, but by how much? - We could do, I have a pitch. What if like, I put my feet out and you put one of your feet on my feet. Like we kind of made like a little triangle star with our feet. - And how does that measure? - Like we do this, but like, I'm not saying we have to do it 'cause like, you know, the visual would live on forever. And it's like, it's potentially, like-- - It's potentially damaged. - It's potentially damaging to like, - What's damaging? - Putting my foot in a triangle with you guys. - What? - Wait, Amanda, you probably bigger feet than me, right? - Oh, for sure. - Honey. - What size do you have? - A seven and a half. - What is that, what's that? - Amanda could walk on snow. - Look at nine. (laughing) - I can't, it's called Snowshoes, motherfucker. - Yeah, I don't know. I think that would be like a nine or 10? - No, like an eight and a half nine. - Oh, okay. - Oh, yeah. - You're an eight and a half? - I'm a 10. - You're a 10? - Yeah, you are. - You're a 10 in women's or-- - An LA 10. - Yeah, in women's, you think-- - So that means that eight, that's an eight and a half in-- - Yeah, so eight and a half are nine and men's. - Okay, so-- - I bigger feet than you. - So we have a rubber on the same foot. - I wear like eight and a half nine. - Sure, buddy. - Oh my God, we're the same. - This conversation is not boosting my confidence. - Yeah, sure, bud. - I'm proud. - Yeah. - Because if I had small feet, I would fall over. - Yeah. - You gotta let the big dogs out. - I gotta let the dogs out. - Yeah. - Look at them. - How do y'all feel about feet? - I am not into feet like that. - That's same. - But Spencer definitely is. Okay, we answered-- - A first up sort of spot on at the new studio. We had a million subscribers and Spencer comes out as a foot person. - Well, I'm not saying I'm a foot person. I'm just saying like the older I get, the more I'm like, yeah, they're kinda cute. - You take, we take a couple months from shooting and Spencer has some time to himself and now he's thinking, I'm not like, I'm not like slaubbering over feet. - Wow, I'm just like, it's like in the same way. It's like, you know, you can appreciate hands. - I've never, what, okay, go on. - Can you guys, I mean, I feel like you can, you can appreciate a hand, okay. I'm gonna bring out one of my favorite movies as I always do Titanic. Do you remember when he's showing Rose, the portraits, and she's like, you love hands, you're really into hands. - You really love hands. - And he's like, she's like, wow, she's like, I think that you have a love affair with this girl and then he said something, right? - He's like, yeah. - No. When he's drawing, I think it's James Cameron's hand. - It is James Cameron's hand. Do you remember that? Have you ever seen Titanic? - I've seen Titanic. - Which VHS did you watch, one or two? - I only watched VHS two. - Okay, wait, wait. - What? - Zoom in, this is when he's drawing. It's just, it's just like, zoom in. It's just, zoom in. So it's just-- - There's nobody by the camera. - So it's just two little hairs like this. This is Leonardo DiCaprio and he goes, - He's so fucking sexy. - He's like, he's drawn Rose like this and he looks up and it's just like, oh, it made me be like, I'm gonna cut off all my hair, but then just have these two. - His bangs are operating in another way. - Wait, what does that say about me? - That I thought Leonardo DiCaprio-- - DiCaprio. - I thought Leonardo DiCaprio was hot. So I wanted his haircut. What does that say? - I don't know. - I think there's like-- - That's fine. - Like, I don't think there's anything weird about that. - No, I think that's completely fine. - Guys, there's a lot of things that I'm struggling with here. - There's a lot of changes. - I'm a little overwhelmed because we have different mics if you can't see them. And I just watch Shane Grip. - Shane is really, she's fucking working that thing. - He's gripping the mic so hard right now 'cause we used to have stationary mics, but now we don't and things have changed. - Yeah. - God, it's gonna get really. - Anyways, feet, no. - That's fine. - That's fine. - Okay, I'll say, I'm completely indifferent to hands and feet. - What do I-- - I don't think about that. - What about head and shoulders, knees and toes? - Well, toes are part of feet. - Yeah. - So no. - Nice, got 'em. - Like knees, I'll take over feet. - Hey, dude, boobies. - No, I've heard about those. - You and the boobies? - These are probably boobies. - Those are pretty cool, Amanda. - You guys are gonna need that. - Amanda's boobies, awesome boobies. - What is this? - I'm super into boobies. - Boobies! (laughing) - Go on. - Sorry, it's a playlist. - You make us wait. [BLANK_AUDIO]
- We have a new set where we lean back and we become just regular podcasts, bro. - Yeah, oh yeah. - Not me. - Okay. - I'm a strong woman still. (laughing) - Okay. - Go on. - But I do feel really lazy in this chair. It makes me be like, yeah, whatcha said. - It's hard not to like, to be fair, we're also filming this at the end of a day on a Friday. - Emponatus? - We an emponatus for lunch. - What emponatus do y'all go for? 'Cause we had emponatus for lunch. I get the pepperoni pizza filled one. I get the caprese or the corn. And I didn't get that today and it was a mistake. - I did a beef and a chicken pot pie. - Okay. - So you can imagine. - And then I believe because we hit a million subscribers today as of recording this, they're delivering some sweet boba drinks for some of us. - Boba drinks. - Yeah, they're delivering it. - Yes. - What do y'all think about like boba? Like like the actual balls? - I'm not really enjoying balls. - What do you think about balls? - And to bring us full circle, what do you think about balls? I love boba. - I think balls are delicious. - To me, the boba balls freak me out a little bit. Like I don't know what they're actually made of. - They tapioca or something. - And what is that? - Fish guts. - What is tapioca? - They're sweet though. - They're fish guts. - Can we get confirmation on what boba is made of? - They're sweet. - Sweet tapioca is a starch extracted from the root of the cassava plant. - Okay. - Yeah, like to me, it's like, it's a little unknowable and I don't want to be surprised by something in my drink. - It works in mysterious ways. The first time I got boba, this was a long time ago and there was like one boba spot in LA that I knew of that anybody knew about. And I remember going to my friend was like, there's this thing called boba and it's crazy. And I was like, all right, I'll try it. And I remember just being amazed by it. Be like, what the hell? But I loved it. For some reason it enhances the flavor. Like the drink itself, whatever you're getting like, if it's a tie iced tea or something, that's delicious on its own. But you just add the boba and it just adds some fun to it. - But do you drink the balls? - Oh yeah. - Yeah, you suck them right up, people. - I suck all those balls. Yeah, to me, that's super easy. - Suck 'em, gargle 'em. - Yeah. Matt, Matt, mash 'em, put 'em in a stew. Have you guys ever seen the video and I encourage you to? - I like, if you're-- - But Matt is gonna have to quit this spot. - Honestly, this is a big ball. - Okay. - I'm just gripping it. - Okay, that was on my chair earlier today. - He did, he did, he did. - Okay, then chain to do it in a press of chain. - Home of boba. (laughing) - No, this is a chain. - I didn't know what to do. I couldn't operate. This, okay, for those listening, we have pillows, we have like regular pillows, but then we have like a big ball. - Can I say something like super gendered? - Can I say something like super like, I'm going to make like a sweeping statement about a gender. - Okay. - Let's fucking go. - Women love pillows. - I have a agree with you. - Which half? - How do you have a agree? - So what, in what context, in what context are you talking about? - In what context are you talking about? - Well here's the deal. I like some pillows, but I am not that type of lady that likes 100 pillows on my bed. I despise that. - I think, I thought-- - Is that what you meant? - Yes, that is what I meant and I think that is very, that is a generalization I am comfortable making. - Okay, there are women that I know that do love a lot of pillows on the bed. I am not one of them. - How many pillows do you have? - Two, one for my head. - Whoa! - Damn. - One for my head. I don't, like when hotels have like a thousand pillows, I'd rather sleep with none. - One pillow is intense. - One pillow for my head. - I love a one pillow. - But couch, different. - I like like two pillows behind my back. One pillow right shoved in between my thighs and another pillow she just holds. - See, on the couch, on a chair, I'm like a no pillow person. I don't like pillows. Bed, I'm just like a two pillow person 'cause you have your pillow, you have your white pillow or like the bed, the pillow you put your head on. - It could be any color. - But then you kinda have like a decorative-- - And pillows come in many colors. - But then you kinda have like a decorative pillow that you put in front of that so that when you make the bed, it kinda like-- - Yeah, yeah, I think aesthetically more pillows-- - Esthetic, they're like just-- - But if I'm sleeping, I'm like all those other pillows are leaving except for one pillow. - Pretty much. - You don't love pillows. - I like one pillow, like I love a pillow, but I like one pillow. - What about on a couch? - It's same, like about one pillow. - Like do you like these two? - Right under your arm. - Well, this is different. This to me is like this is kinda filling 'cause this couch is, this couch needs pillows so that I'm not like-- - Yeah, this couch is a wide girl and we like that. - These aren't singular chairs, but they are basically couches. Two people could fit on every single one of these chairs. - Oh, there's no way that two-- - Like a sponsor and I could comfortably sit on one of these. - We have to do a pod where we share one. - We could absolutely do that. - Yeah. - You could do it now, we're already here. - Dude, just come, like-- - Okay. - So come sit right here. Watch this. Watch this and it's like not bad. Like look at this. - Actually, this is better for me. - No, 'cause you're not like that's kinda my, you know, it's a lot of this. - Yeah. - This is so much better for me. I feel like I brought you onto my pod. I'm just like, so Ronnie and Mitch, how is the home search going? - The next time we do, we have you on this podcast, we should show up wearing one shirt. - Ew, that is so heavy. - Oh, broy, that is so broy and weird. That is like anchor man vibes. Like, you need to go home, that's her line, we found her line. - Yikes, like that weirds me out. I do not like it. It feels old school like, broy comedy. Like, I think if I were sitting like this permanently throughout the episode, I would be less inclined to ask questions like about feet. - See? - This makes me feel like I'm just like, so, when you cover-- - You need to do that, you need to do the couples therapy impression. - Which one? - The cinematics or the, yeah. - Are you aware of my old Prime? - Yeah. - And let him talk, what do you think about this? What makes you think, what kind of feelings did this bring up? - Yeah, go ahead. - About your childhood and your mother when she spoke to you in that tone. - You want me to do this? - You see, I try, I try, and then I get nothing, and I feel like I'm losing my mind. And I'm putting in 100%, and he's putting in zero, and then I'm just so mad all the time, but then I'm mad that I'm mad. - Okay, okay, you'll be. - You're quantifying everything. - Okay, we heard-- - It's like, oh god, okay, I'm quantifying everything, yeah. - Okay, we heard from you. Now, let's hear from Mitch. - Do we know any Mitch's? - So Mitch, you're not really taking this seriously. - Okay, Spencer doesn't like this. - Scott and Couples therapy. Man, oh man, when I was in maternity leave, I ripped through those episodes. I love that woman. - It's on showtime, that's what I was thinking about. - Yeah, it's on showtime. - Rough. - It's so good though, but it is rough. Like she, don't I love about her? She stays pretty quiet, you haven't seen it, huh? - No, I thought it was just a character you're doing. - No, it's a real show. - So I felt like I was like, what do I do? - It's a real show that is really intense to watch, and it shows I'm like, wow, being like a Couples therapist, that is. - And she's in New York, it's like, there's all different people coming in. - I was gonna say like the clientele. - The clientele is like, everyone is unique, everyone is different. There's like, what she has to navigate, but my favorite part about the Couples therapy, her, is she has like a therapist, who she gets to go over everything with, and the therapist like talks to her about it. - Yeah. - And oh my god, if you had her as a therapist, either of them. And then there's the therapist group. Like it'll be her, like doing these Couples therapy sessions, and then it'll cut to her with like five other therapists where they go over their sessions. - They like joint diagnosis. - They like talk shit. No, it actually, generally, she gets other opinions. - I think that would be the hardest part about being a therapist or someone like that is working in a vacuum where it's like you're only getting one perspective, and you're just fully having, like I don't like solving any problem alone, like I love to talk it out. So that must be super useful for any. - Well, she is alone during, like during those sessions, but she does go back and take her notes to like her therapist and this therapist is just like, she's so direct, she's not indecisive, it's amazing. - But it's why therapists aren't supposed to give advice, right? Like they're not, it's because they're getting one, they're just hearing one person's perspective. They're not supposed to be like, yeah, you should break up with them. Like they don't do that. They should be. - But how many therapists, how many people that you talked to, was like, oh my therapist said this and you're like, what? - Now that's what there, here's a problem though. They're putting, I do think we put words into our therapist's mouth sometimes. - Yeah, you're right. - But I think that is almost, in a way, what a therapist is supposed to do is, they're supposed to help you gain clarity. They're supposed to ask the right questions, they're supposed to guide you and challenge you. But they're not supposed to tell you what to do, because they're not in your life, they don't know what's going on. They're supposed to help you understand your situation more. - I commend the people that say yes to getting their therapy session filmed or recorded because boy, oh boy. - My God, 'cause some of them are absolute assholes. Because in season one, like right off the gun, there is a guy who is such an absolute monster to his what, he's such a child. - But has doesn't think that he is. - He clearly said yes, [BLANK_AUDIO]
is like, yeah, like whatever. But he's just like, I'm just like, I hate you immediately. And I'm like, everybody who watches this probably hates you. - And she, the wife, I feel for her, but I also see why she's still in the relationship. Like, I see, it was so frustrating for me because they spoke in completely different languages, not literally. They were just like, on completely different paths. - It's, journeys. - It's fat, it is endlessly fascinating, but it is also at times depressing. - Yeah. - 'Cause you're just like, how long after do you see one therapy session or do you see multiple? - Multiple. - It's a whole, like the season will follow several couples. - Until they're done. So I think they sign up for like a certain amount. And then when they're done, they either it's like, then they, or she can stop them in a way and be like, I can't help you guys. - She has done that. - Do they do the thing where, you know, it's like, it would be like at the end of like, my strange addiction or so. - Oh, do they stay together? - Yeah, it'll be like, eight months later, like bubble blah happens. - Sometimes, some of them do get divorced. And then some of them, it's just kind of leaves unresolved. You're just like, yeah, all right, they're leaving, but it's not great. - You got to find them yourself. - Some couples, you do see them kind of turn things around. It's really nice to see you. - It's really nice to see you're like, whoa. What if we had an on-site therapist at Smosh? But like for certain shoots, like it'd be like, a were, it'd be like a werewolf shoot. And then it'd be like, oh, things got a little intense for bringing in the on-site therapist. - I pitched this for a show, but we didn't do the show. - Oh. - Because the therapist would have been too expensive. - Yeah. - I mean, not legitimate. I'm like, what would the funniest thing to have a therapist on set for? - Try not to laugh when you bomb. - Yeah. - And it's like, you're immediately like, you're, we're still filming the episode, but it's like, ooh, you failed. - Immediate gratification. - You can walk off and there's a therapist to talk to. And then it's, and it cuts to like this gorgeous room. - And it cuts to like the most serious session. - And it's just like, so I put on that wig and I thought, I thought that wig meant that I was a little boy, but it like, it didn't, it didn't work. They thought I was a grown man. And it's like, oh, what, what, what was your childhood life? (laughing) - We need to be crying. - We have to do cutaway gags in try not to laugh. - Yeah. - I love that. Okay, so this might be a spoiler, but the new try not to laugh set has a doorway. - Mm-hmm, bro. - And it's such a game chain. - Game to enter through a door. - Yeah. - It changes every, I mean, it's perfect. It's like sitcom. - Yeah. - This, let's talk about the new studio for a second, speaking of the try not to laugh stage. Okay, so there's three stages and the try not to laugh stage. Things are gonna kind of look similar on camera, except for games. - Games, I mean, we changed a couple of the colors around, but, you know, essentially what happened is a lot of the old set was one to one transplanted to the new location and rebuilt using a lot of the same parts but built taller and a little bigger. Just so we had more space to do, you know, kind of anything we needed. - Oh, we shot on the game stage. You probably did too. The amount of space, it was so, so nice. I also really liked the color, the background colors. - Thank you. - I would say, like besides, like this set is probably the biggest, like aesthetic upgrade. - Yeah. - But I feel like most of the upgrades are more practical. - Well, that set, you guys can't see it, but over there we have like a, you know, painted green screen, white screen, all the way down, so it's gonna look so much better. - Yeah, but a lot of it, a lot of the shows aren't gonna look drastically different, but like you said, we have different lighting, we have different, just like ability to shoot things. - It's different for us. - Yeah, like I don't know if it really, if people realized when watching our videos in the past of like, for how many shows we were filming in one studio, like we didn't have a ton of space in the sense that for where camera could move to film things was sometimes-- - Yeah, and that's the funny thing about like, even now I don't consider Bordeff and Smoshmouth having shared a set where it's like they truly did, but the Bordeff table did not feel like the Bordeff table once you flew those microphones in, like it felt like a totally different, I know. - That's crazy, the Bordeff shared Smoshmouth. That's wild, and now we share assumptions. - Yeah, this is now where they film assumptions. - Where they film assumptions, and-- - Yeah. Yeah, I think are those the two shows? - Those are the two shows, and that's the only set that does multiple shows. - But if we probably, and I mean we want to eventually do more podcasts, I think moving to this new studio allows that possibility to come to fruition sooner, I'm assuming they will also be here. - Yeah, I think so, probably. They'll probably be standing right behind us and doing it, and they'll have to do it at the same time. And it's like, you know, it's really about just taking up space. - Has anyone ever done like three podcasts at once? And they all load them into the one episode, you know, you just hear three different conversations happening at the same time. - That was how Uno slip it in was. - Oh my God, Uno slip it in. It's my first time playing Slip it in. What a fun name, by the way. And I got the most ridiculous phrases that you would never be able to slip in. - What was one of them? - Win Chimes on Etsy. - Oh, watch me beat you and Tetris on an old school Nintendo. - You're never bought Win Chimes on Etsy. - But I couldn't say it. - I legitimately, see I would have, I would have schooled you guys on that one 'cause I've legitimately looked for Win Chimes on Etsy. - No, Shane, you wouldn't have, because this is how it went. Okay, Trevor was getting really heated because he was trying to slip things in, but then he wasn't, and then he was getting really heated. And I totally get why. A Russia was just like, I slipped it in like every five seconds. And then Angel was just going like, butt, butt, butt, mushroom, like saying random things and go, I slipped it in at some point. And we were like, so then I just started being like, you know, namaste, I just started saying things. Spencer was there, it was so crazy. - It's a game that truly encourages, we need like a Smosh Games after show, where it's like, how do we think that went? - With this therapist. - Yeah. - So tell me about the stunt of me. - Yeah, I felt like what you were feeling. - But it's so hard because you know, we previously did it where it's Mario Kart and for context for you at home, the way Slip It In Works is you were given phrases that you have to slip into conversation unnoticed, and they can be super outlandish. And, but previously we played it while they were playing Mario Kart. And in this time we had them, and you know, I don't know when it airs probably way after this, but we have them do it while playing Uno. And so you're playing two games at once, and Slip It In is so demanding from a thinking standpoint. - An observation standpoint. - Yeah. - You gotta be listening. - 'Cause also it's like, you know, if you and I are talking during the game and Amanda just says something, it's like. - So Gar smoke reminds me of my grandpa. - It's like, if I hadn't clocked her even saying that, like to me, it's such an incredible active listening exercise. - I feel like it needs to be a trick. - I think for Smoshmouth, it would be perfect. - I think so too. - Because with Smoshmouth, we aren't doing something distracting us and the etiquette to make it a good episode is ideally people are talking one at a time. - Yeah, yeah. - Should not be talking. Multiple people should not be talking. - It was, and that's why Trevor was getting overwhelmed and I totally get it. It was, I mean, everything I had to say just, it was very clear, it was to slip it in. Everything that I said, it was, it was so ridiculous, but I had the best time. I honestly was laughing so hard. - Yeah, but it is like, it is cruise control for getting overstimulated. Like, I could think of no faster way to overstimulate someone. - I think we should do it for Smoshmouth at some point. - Oh, I love that idea. - I think that'd be perfect. - I think y'all really should, and hey, happy. - Going back really quick. This is a dumb little thing. We keep giving the couple therapy lady an accent and she doesn't have one. We're thinking of Esther Proud. - We're thinking of Esther Proud, but you know what, I combined my two lovely therapists into one. - Yeah. - Is Esther Proud, is that the sex therapist? - Esther Proud is where she'll be getting. - That's not even a good accent of hers. - Esther Proud. - Yeah, I listened to a crazy episode where she talked to a guy in his AI girlfriend. - Oh, she's still around. - Esther Proud, oh yeah. - Where should we begin? - Whew, I have her board game. - I need to listen to, I need to read some of her books. - Boreneeth? - She has a book on infidelity that I'm really curious about. - Yeah, 'cause. - 'Cause I'm like, that's like a crazy talk. - Yeah, 'cause I fucking love it, no. 'Cause I'm really fascinated by, just like-- - She is, relationship and behavioral shit. - Agreed, she is amazing, I love her. - Yeah, anyways. - Anyways, oh, I do have a question. So the game's stage, as it did in the last studio, it has like two parts, essentially. The Boreneeth table and then the couch. Are you, can you spoil anything that you're like hoping to film in the new studio? - No. - That we haven't done? - No. - You're not gonna tell us anything? - No. - I'm in the new studio. - Okay. - Hey, cool. - I think so. - I'll tell you what Shane's planning. He's doing a naked run around the whole studio. - We're gonna go streaky. (laughs) - We're going to the lights will be up, but he'll have a flashlight. And we don't know where. - And so when we film our hide and seek episode, look at the footage. - Someone should, someone really should be naked for that. - Fuck. - Wait, and then we go, oh my god, look. - Oh my god. - Oh my god. - Oh my god. - And then just hanging. - Seems flat, dick and balls. - Broke around their hands and legs just stretched out. - Yeah, seeing somewhat like. (laughs)
- Finding something naked is so scary. - No, the thought of looking up and you're just sitting up and it's just like your butt and you're hanging on and you're just like, wow. - Me hog tied from the rafters. - I guess they're shane. I guess they're shane. - Oh boy, don't look at that. - It's like, why does he have an apple in his mouth? - Beg slowly lowered over a fire. - You were the last one to find. - Oh, you won. - There was like a string of horror movies where a lot of the horror would just be like, oh, what if we put some naked people in the background for you to clock? - Oh, you're talking about like hereditary. - Hereditary? - Hereditary, but like a couple other movies that, too. - I didn't like hereditary. - I know you don't like hereditary. - I was giggling around. - And I love hereditary. - It's so funny, dude. - Hereditary is, I do think my hot take. Hereditary, on like, re-examining it and re-watching it, it is funny as fuck. - It's so funny. - It's like, really funny. And that director has gone now more into comedy, which is so funny. - What's the last comedy that he did? - He did, Eddington. - Eddington is pretty funny. - I will say, I really didn't like when Tony Collette was on the wall. - Oh. - That part I would like. - Tony Collette's performance is what's scary. - I mean, she's the original, six cents, do you remember? - Yeah, dude. Do you remember six cents? - Yes. - I've actually, I've never seen all of six cents. - What the fuck? - I know, I did. - Do you want to hear something crazy? And I just realized, one of my favorite movies, which one? - The one who sees dead people. - What are six cents? - Yeah. - Oh, okay, okay. - It's my son's name. - It's a hole. - You remembered that. - I guess. - You think it was like bubbling under there somehow? - I can't believe you named him that 'cause now he can see ghosts. - Is that why he keeps talking to the lady in the room? - The lady in the room? - It's you, bro. - Like, you already know. (laughing) - That's you. - Man, man, oh man. When you get a baby monitor and you watch horror movies, don't do it. - The monitors are made for horror movies. - It is legitimately scary. - It's so scary. - Yeah. - It's just like there's nobody in there and I'm like, it's just the like grainy black and white. I'm like, that's terrifying. - I was gonna say I recently watched the Dawn of the Dead movie where the lady gives birth to the zombie baby. - Yeah. - It's unfortunate like they set it up to be like so scary. And then you finally see like the CGI zombie baby. And it's like the funniest shit. And it makes this goofy-ass sound. I'm like, oh, you kind of, you lost me. When I watched it as a kid, it scared the fuck out of me. - I'm sure it was scary, but now it's just, it's very silly. - Speaking of, you said you've been going through and watching basically every zombie movie from the past like 100 years? - I wouldn't go that far. I've been watching-- - 100 years. - I've been working my way through like the George Romero zombie movies 'cause I had not seen most of them and wow, like you remember like where you guys, apart of like that zombie craze from, it was like, you know, I guess like walking dead was kind of the culmination of it. - I never watched walking dead after something I missed. - I've never liked zombie shit. - Oh. - I like kind of at all. - Wait, I love zombie shit. - I kind of don't like zombie stuff. Maybe have you kind of like need to go away. - I've watched Night of the Living Dead. I've watched Dawn of the Dead. - 28 days? - I've watched 20 days later is a little bit different. There's some, there's some things that kind of I do love. Like I love the video game of the last of us, right? - Yeah. - But, no, that's not like traditional zombie. I'm talking like, like did you read? I mean, what really kicked it off for me was one shot of the dead and two, it was like the ultimate zombie survival guide. And that guy went on to write World War Z, which is have you read that book? - I have not read that book. - So I assume you seem like someone who has probably seen the movie. - Yeah, the Brad Pitt. - The book is nothing like it, but it's incredible. It's read like a war reporter and it's written after like the zombie outbreak. Kind of like destroys like three quarters of the world's population. And it's a reporter who goes around talking to people who like cause it breaks out in like a small village in China. And he goes and he meets with like the doctor there who was like like on the front lines and he tracks people who were there at all the different points in the war. Up until like, so you know, you just see, it's like a historical perspective of it and it's incredible and it is terrifying. Cause you get little vignettes of like people recounting stories of like, yeah, here's where I was when it happened and here's how I survived for the like X amount of years on this. Like one of the chapters is it's, he interviews the people who were unnuclear submarine and that was where they were like hiding for most of it and how they kind of had to, you know, where they figured they could surface. Like, you know, how they were interacting with people, how they were receiving their news from like top side. But that's kind of it like it extends into like apocalyptic fiction, which is always, I've always loved like, like, you know, it's just like, you know, how do people function after the apocalypse? Right. Like a submarine is scary enough. Yeah. I hate submarines. I haven't read World War Z, but I read his other book. His one, the Sasquatch one. The Sasquatch one. I didn't read that one. It honestly, you love Sasquatch. It was really great. I love, you're scary Sasquatch, okay? I like Sasquatch. I love Sasquatch. I love with Sasquatch, but Sasquatch isn't necessarily scary. Like, my view of Sasquatch is just kind of like, yeah. You've got like a Harry and the Henderson's POV. A little bit more. Just, just, I, I, just whatever. Like, it's just out there and it's like, you know, I don't know if I believe in Sasquatch. But, did you, do you grow up with Harry and the Henderson's? Okay. Did you watch that grow up? I did watch it. My grandparents showed it to me and that end shot when all the Sasquatch come out of the woodwork genuinely. I don't remember that. It's a good shot because they're like, oh, they bring him to like, for those who don't know, Harry and the Henderson's about a family who, John, like, me, me, it's like Sasquatch. That's all for it. That's all for it. That's all for it. That's all for it. Yeah. And they're like, all right. So they're hanging out with Sasquatch. They're having a cabin, right? It's like very silly. They're hanging out with Sasquatch the whole movie. But at the end, they're like, let's take him back home. And they bring him to the woods. And they bring him to the woods, and you're like, oh, like, I wonder, he's just going to walk into the woods and meet his family. And all of a sudden, like, tons of Sasquatch appear and a ton of them were, like, in frame, just so well camouflaged. I got to rewatch it. I know. This is my memory of it, of being like, whoa, they're all actually there. We just don't. Oh, we don't see a review. I haven't seen a review. I never actually saw Harry and the Henderson's. I just imagine the whole movie in my head. I just remember the scene in the kitchen when he's in there. And I remember as a kid being like, whoa, he really looks like a Sasquatch. Oh, I wonder who did, like, if it was like a Jim Henson or like a Frank. It's so good. It's very good. There is a part where it's because the John Lithgow plays like an artist or something, right? And like, at one point, he paints bigfoot, but he makes him scarier. He, like, he draws him scary. And I've always had, like, a weird phobia of, like, paintings and sculptures that are, like, supposed to be scary. Like, picture of Dory and Gray. Oh, yeah. That's, like, so scary to me. Or at the beginning of an exorcist when he sees the statue. Like, the scariest part of that is just, like, a statue that, like, frankly, just has bad vibes. Like, there's something so scary about a, or Ghostbusters 2, that painting of the old man. Yeah. That is scary. There's just something that's so scary. You're scared of scary paintings. I'm scared of scary paintings. I do not, like, creepy paintings. Whoa. One time, my friend was, like, doing construction. When I lived back home, I was in my, like, childhood home. My good friend from college was doing construction for this, like, rich guy. And he was giving away all these, like, old school incredible paintings. And he was, like, hey, there's this painting of a woman who really looks like you. And I was, like, okay, he brought it over in his truck. It was, like, honestly, half the size of this wall. Massive. It was huge in, like, this gorgeous, gold frame. And it's, like, this woman who, like, looks like a maiden. And she has, like, long dark hair. She looks like Esmeralda, kind of. And she has a pigeon. And she's kissing the pigeon, but the beak is going in her mouth. And she's got, like, water pouring. And there's, like, a gorgeous, like, scenery. But it's just that. And I was, like, thanks. And he was, like, yeah, it looks just like you. Crazy, right? And I was, like, all right, bye. And then I remember putting it in my room. And I had nightmare after nightmare after nightmare. And I put it out, my little sister, who's, like, very, like, she was, like, you got to get rid of that picture. It's creepy as hell. She's making out with a bird. And I was like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I don't even mess with, like, a state sale. Especially with, like, an original. There's something to, like, of just, like, okay. Someone put in days of work into this. And it's like, what was their inspiration? What's the energy they were putting in? And I'm not, like, an absolute believer in that stuff. But I'm still just, like, oh, I love, like, dunking on y'all when you're like, oh, maybe there's ghosts. I'm like, ha, but then, like, as soon as a picture comes up, I'm like, oh, no, there's a tangible energy of this picture that I don't like. My instincts are there. I remember one time staying at a cabin. And, like, I was sleeping in a loft. And in, like, the corner of the room was like, just kind of on the floor, like, up against the wall. It was just a painting that was just kind of creepy. Like, of a guy in, like, it was just, like, kind of off. And I remember just being like, you got to be fucking kidding me. Like, I was like, Jesus Christ. Dude, I totally believe in that. And what's funny is this new studio, and Anthony really wants to put some paintings up in this new studio, which I agree, because there's like a lot of beautiful white walls. But there is a couple creepy spots in this new studio already, because we don't have art yet. Have you seen it? You've probably seen it. It's the little hallway, because they, like, messed up a little bit of the construction. It's a hallway that you go down. It's, like, concrete. And then there's a tiny hallway that fits nothing. And it's really, really long. And then at the end, it's a dead end. She's got the fucking background. By the studio. I would say, this-- - Our News 2. - Our News 2.
- Studio has more back rooms vibes than haunted. - I don't feel haunting, I don't feel a haunting vibe here 'cause it feels too fresh. - No? - And this isn't a new building, by the way. This isn't a new, we didn't build this building, right? We, so it's been here, same with the previous studios and all the studios. - Okay, but do you guys get any ghosty vibes in the new studio? - No, not here. - I don't think I've ever been in any place where I've gotten ghosty vibes. - No, I don't get ghosty vibes. - Not the old studio, not the studio. - I once went to a friend's place and I walked in and I was like, ooh, I do not feel good. I'm not even, I'm not even kidding. (laughing) - I do not feel good. Do you feel it? - My tummy hurts, fart. - Oh, go away, we have to, Amanda, we have to tell the story. Sorry to change the subject and ghost. - What story? - Okay. - When he started, dude. - No, no, no. - He's promised that he would never tell a story. - I gotta tell one of the funniest things that's happened in so fucking long. - Oh. - So a bunch of us went and saw "Chances" musical "Hitch." - Yeah, Spencer was there. He was in my room. - And it was with the hurricane. - By the way, amazing show. If they ever do it again. - And you haven't seen it, you must. - You gotta go. You do not need to know the movie "Hitch" at all. - No. - It's just, that's just the basis. - "Chance" wrote it. - So we see the movie. And then afterwards, a few of us are like, oh, let's go, like, do we want to go and grab a drink. - I missed that. - Yeah, sorry. - Yeah. - I wanted to go home. So I was-- - It was pretty late. - It was pretty late. - And we were filming the next day. - Yeah. - But so we go to this bar. And at the bar, there's kind of like, it has like an alley next to the bar. - It feels very New York. - Now you can go out and there's some like benches. And so we're all hanging out there. It's a Russia, Courtney, Amanda. They're sitting on the bench. It's me, H, and Daniel Thrasher was with us. - And Angela. - And Angela was also there. - He started naming people that I just like, absolutely like-- - And like, people I really look up to. - And one close was there. One close was there. George Romero was there. Tom Cruise is doing backflips. - Oh yeah. - Anyways, we're kind of in a circle hanging out. And down the alleyway, maybe about 10 feet, maybe 15 feet from us is a guy. Just a regular guy sitting on a bench on his phone. - That was me, dude. - Yeah. Very chill vibe. - He had headphones in his ears. And he's just chilling on his phone. - With like a beer. - And we're talking, Daniel Thrasher's kind of faced away from this guy. Like, where the circle's at. This is important. And I have direct line of sight of this guy. I'm on the other side of our little circle, where we're talking. And as we're in the middle of conversation. - Yeah. - We're talking about stuff. We're laughing, whatever. We're talking, we're talking. And this guy rips the loudest fart. I've ever heard it so loud. - And I'm talking, and it's a long one. It's not like-- - It's like, we're talking. And I look over. I see him lifting a leg. He's going like-- (blows raspberry) And we are, we are mid-convo. We are silenced. - Full. - We stop talking. - And I and H and I are like kind of far away. So we're kind of like, wait, do we just-- - Wait, do we just-- - Do we just hear that? - He's struggling to figure out what's happening. - I thought it was maybe Daniel. - And then Daniel goes, we all heard that. (laughs) We're all going to be chill about it. And that's what happened. And we're going to, and we got to just continue. And then he goes, hey, Daniel literally, it lifts up his glass and goes, let's cheers to that. (laughs) - We pulled the cheers out of our case. And the guy does not-- - Does not acknowledge it. - And his head looks a little-- - Does look over. - He was listening to fart sounds on his head sounds. And he's like, oh, it must have been part of the song. - No, like he ripped it for like a long time. - It was lifted up his ass for it. - Right. (laughs) - Like he truly-- - No, I looked over and he was doing like full on like a high kick. - The fact that he was farting so long you had time to visually find the farter before it ended. - Let me tell you, Spencer, there was like no one in the alley but him and us. - And it must have been the wind. - It was, it was awesome. - He wants to have been listening to whatever he wanted. And he was like, I have to fart. I don't care. - And I think what's, or maybe he farted and then had the realization of like, oh my God, I have headphones in like, oh shit. - Was it loud. - And then just kind of had to stay in his phone. He couldn't look around. - And he didn't, he stayed there for a long time. - It's, it is scary when you have headphones in 'cause when I'm at the gym and I have headphones in, I'm like, oh maybe I could silently get away with something but I'm like, I have no idea what's happening. - Ew, you're squatting fart, didn't you? - No, and I would never be around anybody. But if I'm like on a stair master and nobody's around me, I'm like, all right. But I'm still like, what if it's really loud? Just shaying on a stair master, just like, (laughing) And you're like, God, this new album. - Why is my heart rate 200? (laughing) - You think, I would think farting would lower your heart rate. - I would think so too. And I think it would give me buoyancy. I think it would lift me up a little bit. - Farts will never not be funny. - Why? - It's like, like, yeah, that was, yeah. - Effectively, it's so funny. - It was insane. - It was insane. And you know what? It was just, it brought a lot of joy to us. - I managed, but, like, our fans are gonna be shocked to hear this. I managed to not, like, burst out laughing. - None of us did. - 'Cause it was actually, like, shocking. - None of us did. - It was true. - We were all like this. - We were kind of like, oh my God. - What if you turned and looked over and he was fully naked just standing there? - And he's like, well, you guys hear that? (laughing) - Did you hear my-- - So yeah, that was a spooky thing that happened to us. - Can I tell my story after a chance to show? - Yeah, I would do. - I went to Jack in the Box and I tried their new hot, it's, like, spicy, hot, honey mozzarella sticks and they were awesome. - They hit? - They hit. It's, like, the chili is kind of thing, you know, that how chilies has started to do. They're, like, honey chipotle coated mozzarella strips. - Yeah. - Jack in the Box does one. And it comes with, like, dipping ranch. I was very pleasantly surprised. - Do you wanna hear something? - Whoa. - Kind of insane. - I don't think I have tried a new fast food item from my regular order in my entire life. - Oh, no. - You're still locked in, like, what you had as a kid? - Like, whenever I've gone, I don't try, like, when they come up with a new thing, I never, I've never tried it. - I have to try the new thing. - I fucking have to try it. - I've only had Jack in the Box, like, once and it was because you brought something in and you're like, oh, they have these new little mini tacos. - Oh, the tiny loaded tacos? - Yeah. - So good. - So I had one. - It's pretty good. - Jack in the Box, like, because I was dismissive my first couple of years in LA and then I, then you find what its strengths are. And it is kind of like the weirder, like, spin-off things. 'Cause if you go toe to toe with like a, even like a Wendy's burger. It's like your, like, Wendy says, it's kind of cracked the burger recipe. - Really? - Wow. - I haven't had Wendy's in like 10 years. - I haven't had Wendy's. Wendy's was like, where we went to hang out in high school. And I haven't been to a Wendy's since. - I just don't have fast food that often. - That's fair. - I get like Taco Bell. I get like five crunchy tacos. - That's crazy. - And I've got all I've ever gotten. - Okay, so you don't like to change your order? - I just said, I'm like, this is what I know is good. And usually when I get fast food, it's, I'm in like, it's like 2am or something. So I'm not like, in the zone where I'm like, I'm going there. I never like go out in seeking fast food. I'm like, oh, I need something and it's there. - I cannot picture you at 2am being around yet, like a drive-through. - You don't fucking know me. - I really don't know you that well, like damn. I don't know you at all. - You don't know me, and nobody knows 2am me. - Nobody does, I don't think he exists. - No, and he doesn't. - Shane, yeah, I, Shane, that's 'cause he doesn't. - Sometimes he does. - Sometimes he will like text Shane at like, if I text Shane after 11, I kind of like just assume, and it would kind of be the same for you. I'm like, there's no way they're awake. - Yeah. - It's true. - And it's true with me for sure. - Most nights I, I am asleep. - Yeah. - I've been going to bed at like one o'clock. - It's been my time lately. - You're a, but you're a night owl. - Yeah, like I could keep going usually. - Like I can't, I'm such a morning person. - Same. - I love the morning. - Have you always, because Shane, I became. - Yeah. - More of a morning person. - Actually, no, I've been a morning person for a long time, but I've been come like intense morning. - I'm a morning person, except when I worked as a bartender, obviously I was forced to be a night person. But I never wanted to be a night person. My husband's a night owl, like he could be up until 3 a.m., no problem. - That's crazy. - Me, I'd rather be up at like five in the morning. - I think it's, I mean, obviously it's two sides of the same coin, but it's like when you're up that late, you are getting like a period of quietness. And it's the same when you get up really early in the morning. It's just like, it's kind of your time. - Exactly. - And I think like it makes sense to almost, well, I don't know, 'cause court, I would think is a morning person too. They're like, what if they were just a day person? - They kind of, they become more of a morning person. - I mean, this job, you kind of have to get up early, sometimes we have morning person. - Especially because she, in order to like get her hair and makeup ready, like if we have an 8 a.m. call time, she might be waking up at 5.36 to fully be ready. And then, you know, I wake up and go to the gym in the morning. So, 8 a.m. call time means I'm waking up at 5.30. - Yeah. - Or so. - I'm always waking up at 5.30. - Well, I'm assuming nowadays. - Full is up. - You literally, when do you sleep? - You literally, I woke up at 7.30 this morning. - I was kind of up at like 5.30. But on the weekends, I love waking up early because like 6 a.m. being up and having nothing to do is so awesome. 'Cause I'm like, oh, the gym might not even be open yet. Like, there's nothing I can do besides make coffee and like, hanging.
out. It's so quiet, but it's like, my cats are awake by that point. Do you like read a book? Yeah, I love reading in the morning. Reading first thing in the morning is awesome, because it's quiet, but it's like the sun, here in LA, like the sun's usually rising pretty early, so I get some natural sunlight, and it's just quiet, it's chill, and reading is just so nice. Oh my god, what is that like? And I'm just like, what is that like? Me, I'm literally sleeping until I at least have a life. You know what? You're just starting a different experience now. I did, I will say I did have that life, and it was, it was really nice, and I have a different experience, and honestly it is really, really, really fun. It's really nice, because when I do get those quiet moments when he's napping and reading, it feels like stolen time. It feels so, so precious, and I will say, my mornings are now filled with like this really fun experience, like he's learning how to pick up Cheerios, which is like a full skill. What kind of cheerios are you giving them? Pinch or grass? Yeah, what kind of cheerios? Right, regular, regular, nothing, just honey, not that multi-grain, no honey nut or anything. No, do you hate him? No, no sugar, no sugar, baby. I'm going to be honest, I thought honey nut cheerios were the standard cheerios. They're the best. They probably are the standard. Did you ever have like cinnamon cheerios? No. Sorry, not cinnamon frosted cheerios. No, incredible. See, cereals are where I will try, I will try different shit. I love trying a new cereal. I love trying a new fast food. But to me, the beauty of fast food is like, well, you know, I will get my standard, which usually isn't that much. I don't have like a big order at Taco Bell. Taco Bell, it'll be like, I'll get the crunch wrap if I want something safe, and then I will try like the one new item. So good. Usually they have like fun new drinks. I love it trying a fun new drink. I just, I don't, I don't do that. Wow. Because you're up early reading. Yes, because I'm busy filling my brain with knowledge. I'm always trying new books. I will say the morning, the morning is the best time, and like, for us, I don't mind an early call time because I think it's harder to get here later in the day and start shooting. Like, today, I got here a little bit later and it was harder to like get going because the people who are already here early are already warmed up. They're already ready to go. If you feel a little bit late, I would rather come early and leave early because also this studio, we're so lucky. The studio is a lot bigger. And therefore, there are so many spaces for the actors to hang out. There's the lounge. There's the wardrobe. There's the green room. So you kind of have to like find everybody. And if you don't, you're actually weirdly, which I love, in like a quiet space by yourself. Rare. I, I, yeah, it's such a weird experience here at this new place where there's moments of quiet. Cause that at, didn't exist in the old place. The previous studio. It was basically a giant warehouse with concrete floors and there was no separate rooms. We had the studios and then it was just like a big open space, which was kind of nice. But it meant it's great for finding people. It was great for finding people because they just looked around. But there was never a moment of quiet. And I really struggled with that because I, I love quiet. I just occasionally, I need, I need to get a break. I need quiet. I need like a good amount of quiet probably every day because my nervous system gets a little overwhelmed. I was overwhelmed a lot there. Um, it was tough. I couldn't do work there. Neither could I. That's, yeah, I got pretty, not always canceling, but like sound isolating headphones. Cause you know, I have to give like notes and like, yeah, like when you have to lock in, it was a hard place to lock in. It was very, very cool. And I think there are so many spaces here to lock in. They're so, it's more easy. There's so many spaces and like, the furniture is so beautiful. Like, we just got so lucky with like, it just feels like their space just spread out and their space to like have like, you know, private conversations or spaces to like, change up the scenery or keep things fresh or film things. Like I feel like filming our social content would be like a lot more fun. People are going to see a lot more backgrounds. But I just think that the designers did such a really fucking good job. And I feel very, I feel very lucky. Cause I'm like, oh my god, beautiful. I'm still like learning the map though. Like I'm like, I'm getting lost. I'm learning the routes. Like, you know, like one of the shortcuts. Where can I, you know, also it's crazy to me that the offices are in a completely different area than all the shooting. Cause before it was, you know, one space. Yeah. Yeah. I, I, I, I, I'm going to bring up something controversial. What do you think bathrooms? Oh god. Do you want this? No, bathrooms. I'm struggling. Bathrooms are a bit of a problem. I hate to talk, not talk shit. But it's, it's no pun intended. I'm a little, I'm struggling with them. But we do have a bathroom that is, that is a single like bathroom. Like I need a one stall. Well, so the problem is. Yeah. Yeah. We have our bathrooms. They have like two stalls in them. Right? But the, the doors are like the wooden slat ones. I will say they're pretty like hard to see through. I can't see you in there. I know. And I wasn't looking. I know, but like, I know, but you are standing very close. If you peer, you can sit in the eyes. But no, it's more than I'm like, it's, it's definitely more just a me thing where that I'm like, the fact that there is holes, the fact that there is slats in this door. I'm just like, well, like, I think it's also because in our old studio, it, we'd never had shared bath. This is, this is multiple, I think it's more, these are also multiple stalls in one bathroom. We never had that in the old spa. I, I love to feel sealed and like safe. Oh, we talked about this because like in my home, by myself, if I am home alone, I'm shutting the door. Oh, I'm keeping that door. No, I'm shutting the door. I want to see if murderers are coming and jamming their paws underneath the door. Like, what the hell, man? Let us in. Oh, cats in my lap, bro. No, no, no, bones will try. Can you picture this? I'm picturing Shane on the toilet, just like sitting like this. I do. Like that's like that's for some reason how I'm seeing Shane sitting on the toilet. So no one loves. I'm pretty, I'm pretty open with what I, what I struggle with is secondhand embarrassment where someone walks in and go, oh, I'm so sorry. And I'm like, oh, no, it's fine. And then I'm like, I'm sorry that you feel sorry about that. That's so awkward that for you. And now I feel it. Yeah. Like it's like, you know, when you watch cringy shows, I can't do it. So it feels like that. That's what's happening in the bathroom. What do you think about people using the urinals? Because you know, there was a, I think our, I think our unspoken rule right now is no using the urinals. What if I walk in? I'm, I'll be fine with it. I'll just go nice ass, buddy. Hold on. I'm gonna slap our ass. I'm into that's not how urinals are used. You don't pull your pants down. Yeah, but you could if you wanted to. Nobody, that would be such a powerful thing. It would be butters from South Park. Yeah. I would, I would honestly be so proud of you guys. Okay, boys. Okay, my little men, my little men. Dude, would you know how to use a urinal? We, we could, we'd have to literally grip the wall. But I mean, like, like, let's say in our legs up and then grip ourselves and push ourselves. Let's say we body swapped. And you were suddenly, you were like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're something like, I have to pee. I have to pee. Like, could you go and confidently use a urinal? Yeah. Take my take out. Be fine. Okay. You're okay. Sounds like she know. How would you do that? Would you take it out through the boxers or over the pants? This is my hill I'm dying on. So do you know how, I mean, I, you know, I know. No, no. Um, we do mean undies ads all the time. Yeah. Yeah. I, when you take me penis out, I would probably take it. I would put the me at undies ad in this right here. Okay. Okay. Aren't there a lot of boxers? Oh, no. I would go through the boxers. You'd probably pull the balls out too. You don't know what you're doing. I would, you wouldn't know the first thing I could think to do with it. I would pull the pants all the way down to the ankles and I would untow my boxers just over the butt just a little bit just to show like the butt and then I would pull everything out of the product. I believe that like because I don't want to get it messy. My issue still is just that I'm like regardless of the urinal stuff and everything. I'm just to say I'm scared. Shane wants surprise. I like single use bathrooms or do give me single use. My favorite bathrooms of all time are the non-gendered bathrooms that have all the just like toilet stalls that are just really, really nice and like I agree with you. Those are my favorite ones. I do not mind everyone going into one bathroom. I think that's absolutely fine. Just make the doors really solid. I'll wash my hands next to anyone. Oh, yeah. But shitting, I need to be locked away. So you don't want to wash your hands after your shit because you think people know what? I wash your hands after. We're going to really see who's not washing their hands after they pee. Well, I guess we won't. No, people are definitely going to be washing their hands. Oh my god. You know what's cool? We get to share like our guests the new space. It's really, really cool. Yeah. And also to reiterate, we're out of million. We are out of million. I just think that that is so, so cool. And if you are just listening, we have new mugs and they are cute as hell. It's a sunset. Yeah. And here's the fun thing. After all we've talked about today, we're going to lose definitely 100,000 subscribers. Let go of the mic. Would you guys still have me on? If like every time I was on, it was like guaranteed you would lose 1000 subscribers.
- No, we would kick you out. - No, because Celia's the boss. - Like, I'm just, it's guaranteed we're going to lose 1,000 subscribers, but is that accounting for that, but the problem is, we, we, - You would do it all so quickly. - You'd probably quickly gain, like at that, not for me, but like, no, no, no, no, no, I just mean like in the grand scheme of like, you know, whoever else you have. - That would be tough, that would be tough. I'm just saying, like, would you? - Okay, there is a pillow, the size of a basketball, and it's giving me some memories. - You think that's the size of a basketball. How big do you think basketballs are? - My basketball games are pretty big. I got big shoes and a big ball. - I would have. - With size 10 basketball? I got a basketball game tomorrow. - I found this shoot to be very different and very fun, and also very Lucy Goosey. I know. - I feel a little like I'm sleeping. - Every episode to shoot with Spencer is like this. That's the thing. - You're so right. - Yeah. We'll have a plan, and it's just gone. - It just gets derailed, but I do think these chairs kind of offer a little bit like, hey, say, like you know Andrew's gonna be doing crazy shit in this chair. - She's gonna be jumping all around that chair. - Yeah, yeah, whatever. - Do you think it's okay that we don't have like a table? - We'll see. - What if we're like a coffee table? Well, I think like my, my coffee table would be-- - I might be put my feet up on it. - Ooh, we put our feet up. - Yeah, I think having a coffee table wouldn't help us. - Like, what if I had-- - You have the stickers on there? - What if the guest is barefoot the entire episode? How did you know? - I just was like, these probably have stickers on them. - I just-- - I've left-- - You have it on the other shoe. - I've had a shoe that like, I had the stickers on the bottom for like a year. - That's a good, that's a good shoe did. - I just didn't realize. - If you guys are watching, let us know what you guys think of the new studio, and if you have any questions, and we'll let you know if we have any ghost sightings. - Probably not, not yet. - We're scary painting. What if you guys surprised me with like a scary painting back there? - I didn't know that you didn't like scary paintings. That's like new-- - We're gonna put a bunch of-- - We're gonna fucking scare you, dude. - We're gonna scare you so bad. - Yeah, thank you. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Well-- - Go with that. - All right. - Okay. - Well, thank you, Spencer. - Thank you. You can find me on some-- - We can find you in the bathroom. - Oh yeah, you can find me doing-- - You can find me on some-- (laughing) - That's much games, we got some new games videos coming out, which I'm very excited about. - Yeah, and if I can tease like some stuff, I mean, like, you know, we're plugging away at some fun stuff, some fun like summer programming. Yeah, I'm really pleased with the upcoming slate, and you know, Shane's been pitching us on some fun stuff. And oh, yeah, we got the-- (laughing) Look, I'm gonna say it, Star Wars. - Star Wars. - We're just, we heard about it. - We heard about Star Wars. - May the force be with you. - We've been getting into Star Wars. - I was married on May 4th, be with you. - Oh, nice. - Did you do that on purpose? 'Cause you love Star Wars. - I do love Star Wars. It was like a half an half, but also it had a really good deal at the place. (laughing) - They're like, but you have to wear the Princess Leia ear buns. - We just liked five, four, two, three, but also I love Star Wars. - So, your son's full name is Colby one Kenobi. (laughing) - She's like, I realize watching my-- (laughing) - We have ruined six things. - Six cents and Colby one Kenobi. - Colby one Kenobi. (laughing) - Is that what you said? - I said, Colby one Kenobi. - I said, Colby. - Colby. (laughing) - Colby one Kenobi. - We need to go. - All right. - Zoom out, get out of here. We need to go. Okay, and also tell me if you guys like the basketball pillow. - Yeah, let us know. You start dribbling it perfectly. (laughing) - Oh, you're doing pretty good job, pass. Now feed me the rock. All right, bye, thanks for one million. - We love you. - We love you, we love you.
