Memes Throughout the ages episode 299: Peppa Pig

The podcast explores the Peppa Pig meme as a significant, albeit now fading, phenomenon in internet culture. Originating from a simple British children’s show, Peppa Pig gained traction in the early 2010s through humorous, often absurd YouTube parodies, such as MLG-style videos, Roblox games featuring edited Peppa clips, and fictional storylines like a "slaughterhouse trip" or "Momo challenge." These videos were fueled by internet trends that exploited kid-friendly characters for edgy, satirical content. The discussion highlights how such memes were particularly popular during the mid-2010s when internet culture thrived on parodying children’s media—unlike today’s trend of focusing on current viral content. The creators note that while Peppa Pig parodies were once widely shared and even featured in major platforms like Paramount Plus, they now appear outdated and are rarely discussed. The podcast also touches on controversies, such as the "Momo challenge" and the "Blue Peppa Challenge," which were later debunked as hoaxes with no real-world harm. Despite the lack of serious narrative or lore, the meme remains a nostalgic example of how internet culture once reinterpreted simple children’s content into absurd, viral material. The episode concludes by reflecting on the shift in internet trends, emphasizing that such content is now seen as a relic of a bygone era, with no lasting cultural impact beyond its historical significance.

started becoming a thing around like the CSco surf comment whatever they never stood a chance yeah yeah you're like popular around 2018 and peppa pig by which time I'm more I don't know so peppa pig is a British animated television show for kids about peppa who is a pig obviously oh you know actually generally people who like weren't British like little kids who are watching so much peppa pig that they started speaking like British people yeah that's something you actually really have to be careful of with your kids is like showing them like like what they watch because like I would watch so much squid I started I called hot tubs jacuzzi's and like was the other word is that is that actually the British word for hot tubs I'm pretty sure British people say jacuzzi's I thought that was just like normal I thought they were like I thought those like just like a universal thing for like a different type of hot tub okay well it's not a British word I'm stupid well I don't know I started saying things like like squid would always say menthol so I started saying menthol These kids menthol or whatever. Yeah. He would say a lot of British things. I I ticked off on it. He's the larpa's stamp. Yeah, Peppa Pig. So, um, Peppa Pig was on the Poland, almost red VCA's part here. Um, Peppa Pig focuses around Peppa and her, her, her family, her family, her family doing various different things and living life basically. There's not like too much of an insane plot here. Actually, let me look this up. Does Peppa Pig have arcs? Are their arcs in Peppa Pig? Let's see. Yeah, there's the dynamic saga where Peppa goes. No arcs. How am I supposed to watch this? How am I supposed to argue about which arc is better? Oh, hold on. On the fan and there's, there's story Jesus Christ. Fought here's Horde. Just make it normal text, please. Ram, do you remember the Peppa Pig meat king in video? I don't think I watched that one. We're like Peppa Pig eats everybody. Oh, okay. Yeah, I remember that. I know another type of Peppa pig video. Um, what's the other one? Well, it has to, it pertains to daddy pig and feces. Oh, yeah, I know that one. Okay. So people, are these like made up episodes? People are like on the Peppa, the Peppa Pig manga and anime are broken into story arcs. The following, there are people like making up Peppa Pig arcs, basement cult arc, intensive training arc. Okay, I'm pretty sure these are all jokes. Well, you don't know that. No, I'm fairly sure. What if, what if there's, what if there's actual, like, like fan created. From there is fan created Peppa stuff. That's like, that's why the video game on Roblox, watch Chris Peppa videos. He's like, hurt yourself, please. Hold on, Peppa Pig manga. Peppa Pig manga. It doesn't exist. I'm really, really. Yeah, obviously, it doesn't exist. I'm trying to see if people are actually like making one, like a fan made one, but they're not. They're just making stuff up on the fandom for fun. Wait, it's not the fandom? Yeah. Um, it's just like, it's just not like the like fan and fandom one. Man, I don't know. Potato potato. Okay, so that's what Peppa Pig's about. There's not really much to the story besides that. Um, but it's a show that was made for kids that got turned into a meme around the time of the early to mid 2010s, uh, through YouTube poops, uh, specifically the, um, the, uh, I don't know if it's the intro or like a transition sound. You know the one I'm talking about, right? Like the, uh, yeah, that one. That's the intro. That's the intro? Yeah. Okay, you've, you've definitely heard this before, but we're gonna play it now. I'm Peppa Pig. This is my little brother to watch. This is Bobby Pig. This is Daddy Pig. Yeah, I'm dying to be surprised if you haven't heard. Uh, I feel like everyone is like, if you've been on the internet for like the last 10 years now, you've heard it. Um, yeah, like I remember all the MLG type of stuff like like Peppa Pig plays my craft. Oh my god, yeah, it's been, you don't see that stuff anymore. I mean, you, you still see some Peppa content. Let me check out our old Peppa lines. I ever saw something that had Peppa Pig in it. It was like, for like, like, Paramount Plus or something. Yeah. And it's like all of the Paramount characters, all on Paramount Mountain. Oh my god. It ran Peppa Pig parodies. The guy who made Peppa Pig plays my craft. He's still uploading. Like uploading Peppa Pig videos? Yeah, he uploaded nine days ago. Why? You made a video on who his Peppa Pig parodies? Because that's his name. Where's he leaving? He still gets millions of views. Yeah, well, those are, well, also he's moving on apparently. So, well, it's not necessary. There's one from two months ago that has six million views. We have a, he's moving on. I, in the, in this most recent video, he said something about moving on. Oh, okay. Well, yeah, he probably should think that's probably a good thing. I don't think, well, apparently people are still watching Peppa Pig parodies, but whatever. So, yeah. But yeah, the Peppa Pig was like, oh my god, remember the, uh, remember like the, the Miapon. Zoos, zoos, zoos, zoos. Oh my god. Yeah, there was like, I don't know, wait, that was the beginning. That was like 2020. Yeah, it was like early 2020. Remember the video where Mommy Pig, Mommy Pig and Daddy Pig take Peppa Pig and George to Disneyland, but they don't take them to Disneyland. They bring them to a slaughterhouse and they come out with a bunch of money. I do remember that, yeah. Yeah, that was also on the, it had, it had, you got, zoos, zoos, zoos, it had that playing over it. I can't remember all the, like those, uh, sped up royal song videos whether we're had like granny, what, what are you talking about? It was like the sped up animation videos and they had like, granny and like several other characters. Yeah, actually, in the, in the audio, it was like playing royals sped up. Wait, like the, like the, it would never be royal. Yeah, wait, I kind of remember this. I don't know. I saw so many of those. I know what you're talking about, but I never heard any of the royals playing over it. So, I would just have like random stuff playing over it and it'd be like scary teacher 3d, like chasing boy with red hat. There's a, there's a scary teacher 3d movie being made. That's like, oh, like, why? Actually, let me see if this is true, a scary teacher. Who's watching a 3d movie? Oh my god, what, wait, this is real? Oh, no. It's currently in development by Hollywood producer Joe Roth and Jeff Kershibon. Who would watch this? I'm sorry, Peppa Pig. All of us. Peppa Pig is such an interesting phenomenon because it's like, like the, the, the internet's obsession back in like, I don't know, it's one of the like 2016 to 2018 of using child, like child show characters like Peppa Pig, Thomas, uh, curious George, not curious George, sorry, uh, Caiu. Um, it's just like, like, like, what, where, where does it come from? Like, why, why those characters specifically? Is it because, yeah, yeah, like, Elsa Spider-Man. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Needle, pregnancy. Is that just such a weird time to be on the internet? Yeah, I remember the memeulous video. Oh my god, the, the memeulous dodgy kids shittles videos, like nine years old now. Oh my god. It can actually use old watch videos. Why? Why? I was, I was a kid. Rather, yeah, but I was watching YouTube kids. Yes, okay. Yeah, but I was watching memeulous make fun of these eight years ago. Oh my god. And then the, I can't bring this up. I'm going to go on a whole tangent. But, but yeah, like, the, the internet would just take a ton of kids properties. I feel like that isn't done much anymore. I feel like it's always whatever is like currently trending. Yeah. Like sprunk, remember sprunkey, you know, sprunkey content being made anymore, except like the, the obviously parody, like, sprunkey color changing, IDK sterling, Tom. Then there was, then I saw stuff where, like the new chapter of poppy playtime in like, back rooms. What? It's something with that, and like, all the tongue tongue tongue to horse. stuff in the Italian brain rods and all doctors. Yeah, I don't think like that. I don't know. Yeah, it's funny. It's funny. Yeah, we're just like ask yourself what would Bombadero do? No, because actually because I would not want to be Bombadero Crocodilo because he like hates, he like hates Middle Eastern people. Did you know that? He does. The translation Remember have you read the translation of Bombadero Crocodilo? Well, no, I have a job. I don't know if you have it. Okay, let me Bombadero Crocodilo. Yeah, it's a wiki entry like on wikipedia. What would Vorbalone do? I don't know. Where's a wikipedia? He says like something about like murdering like Middle Eastern children. That's not funny. I don't know why I'm here. It's a hybrid creature with the head of a crocodile in the bit in the body of a World War II era twin prop bomber. He is the bomber of a goose with fighter jets named Bombadero. Wait, he is the brother of the goose with fighter jet wings named Bombadini Guzini and his lyrics and his said to be bombing civilians in Gaza. Why? Because like half of these were made ironically. The Italian brain rot stuff that was made ironically. Like they were originally made for those videos where like people would like would like go like oh that's tongue to the horse. I know that one. And like just named characters and nobody knows the names of but then everyone ended up knowing these characters. Oh my god. Yeah, even like the troll era one, I'm pretty sure it also says something racist. A few of them say racist things but yeah, the the bomber deal of crocodile one talks about bombing children in Gaza. Anyway, Peppa Pig. It's just like I feel I feel like I mean, Peppa Pig the thing is I don't feel like the Peppa Pig video specifically like the MLG ones like those weren't made for like for like views for for clickbait. It's like oh Peppa Pig, I got to watch that like you know like like content farms. I feel like it was more just like taking a character from a kid show and making it. Yeah, I feel like that was like very prominent back in like the the mid to late 20 times, but it's now something you never see anymore. Yeah, and I remember back in like the time where like Peppa Pig was like a big thing and like people were watching like the show. I was one of those people who watched the show and I it's all right. That's a children's show. Can you tell me the lore of Peppa Pig? It's no lore. It's just all they do is just the little like make to just do different activities. There is no story. It's like family guy. I know they never change it. What's happening? I feel like they learn new stuff and see new things and stuff like that. Like any other show. Forring. I think kids should be watching adventures of song The Head Chog. That's what I grew up watching. Yeah. Miss Rabbit Arc, the Daddy Pig Soccer Arc. Are these they are mind controlled by a goddess? Is this real? Are you like probably I don't care. Can you tell me about these Poyle knows a lot about Peppa Pig? Yeah. Can you you get married in Peppa Pig role plan? I tried to get married in Ducco. But I feel like Peppa Pig like like from what you said never got like content far muffled. I feel like it just got made edgy. Yeah, I agree. They're like the MLG stuff like they'd have Peppa Pig city and word in like that smoke weed every day. It's like the parody animations where she gets sent to a slaughterhouse and murder. And then there was the meat canyon video where Peppa Pig murders her entire family to eat them. It was always just kind of edgy and not like content farm. But stuff like Sonic, Mario, like Spider-Man Elsa, that stuff got got Elsa gay content far muffled. Yeah. And that turned into like modern day Huggie Wuggie gets pregnant with kissy missy's baby and it has birth. Listen, I know I just have that backwards. Listen, I think Sally gives Amy wedgie and spider spike fit is not content farm. Ask that is that's good content. Yeah, the Amy Rose versus Sally cord wedgie that all. Yeah, the video made me feel really weird as a kid. I didn't really like it. Like I couldn't see you're walking in the kitchen. Yeah, I was like with my mom in there. I was and then I'd like. I retention to your child. What what what are we talking about Charlie Chaplin? No one ever spoke about Charlie Chaplin. I know what I'm just saying. I'm just saying. Let me finish. How did we get from Charlie Chaplin getting stuck in cogs and gears to this crap? What do you tell? What is what do you reference it? The history of film wrap. Yes. I want to talk to you. What? The thing is Peppa Pig is an of film. It's an animation. I know. And I'm talking like how did we get from that to like all this crap. I don't know if someone saw a pig and said what if it was named Peppa and gave it a family. But my turn. My turn. Hey. Hey. BCA. Yeah. Can you tell us the origin of this meme where it came from all that jazz, you know? Yeah, sure. Hey. Hey. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. A little bit more enthusiasm. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I can do that. Ah. Absolutely. Um, on May 31st, 2000. Wait. Yeah. That one. You're in the right. Okay. Okay. On May 31st, 2004, the first Peppa Pig episode premiered on Britain's channel five and on August 22nd, 2005, the American version of the show premiered on Cartoon Network's preschool television programming block. And as of April 2017, a total of four seasons containing 52 episodes each along with two additional special episodes have been released. One was this updated about a year ago. Now it says about a year ago. Oh, where do you watch Peppa Pig now? Like besides Paramount, I know Paramount Plus, but like where where like where on TV were people watching it because like obviously it didn't stay on Cartoon Network, but oh, wait on TV. Um, they probably didn't like reruns. Yeah, but where? Target hour. Yeah, but they weren't. They were. We used to watch Cartoon Network on what? Those are two different and those are two entirely different studios. Right. Maybe they're working Nickelodeon. Yeah, those are two different studios. What do you talk about? Did Nickelodeon start? What? He did? I mean, though, I guess that would make sense. Yeah. I don't care. Oh, yeah, that would make sense because it's on Paramount Plus now. Oh, yeah. Oh, it's Nickelodeon. Okay. I need to just like put this on. I know your meme Skylar from Pokemon and my little pony are always like the day's top image galleries. Why specifically Skylar? Who's that? Exactly.

Um, very bad. Super mega-man10. Can you please tell us how this means spread? Talk about the something awful that Peppa did. Glamp because Peppa herself made these. Okay. Controversions. Controversies. YouTube videos. On November 15th, 2014, YouTubers Steven Radigan uploaded a video titled Peppa for adults, episode one featuring Peppa Pig footage dubbed with "Experience." "Explicit." Wait, what does it say? Uh, I look at it, "Expletive-ridden dialogue." The money word, that's the vocab word day. We're doing this new thing, M-T-T-A vocab word, but word in the day. That, that is it. What's the word? "Explicit-ridden-explicit-ridden dialogue." Exactly what he said. In 2016, YouTuber, Baby, Funny TV, okay. "Hashtag Peppa Pig, #Dental, #Cry, #Free." Oh yeah! "Hashtag Nursery, Ryan Sleerick." Yeah, that's the Elsegate. Okay, so Elsegate was, there was Peppa Elsegate. That was the kind of stuff. Also, what did you expect coming from a YouTube channel called Baby Funny TV, in which Peppa visits a dentist who uses a variety of frightening tools, causing her to cry. The original YouTube channel has since been removed, but mere versions of the video have been re-uploaded. On March 16th, 2017, the news site, The Outline, published in article titled, YouTube has a fake Peppa Pig problem, in which the author complained about her child, discovering the Baby Funny TV video. On March 27th, the BBC trending YouTube channel uploaded a video titled, the disturbing YouTube videos that are tricking children. Is that been on March? - What? - Is that Venom Papa? - Yeah, it's like Venom George. There was like all these fake Peppa Pig YouTube videos popping up and like tricking little kids that are getting scared. Because the enough parents don't monitor their children while they're using the iPad. - They really should. - On March 31st, the sun published an interview with YouTuber Steven Radigan, who blamed parents giving their children access to iPhones and iPads, exposing their kids to upsetting content. On April 16th, 2017, Reddit or True Blue 1074 submitted a post asking about the YouTube videos to our slash out of the loop. Momo. - Oh my god. - Wow. - I remember Momo. I was so scared of Momo. - In February, 2019, rumors began circulating that the character Momo was being maliciously edited into, and edited into in Peppa Pig videos on YouTube. - Just get rid of that second in and you should be fine. - What? - It should probably say, oh, is there a typo? - Yeah. - Did this page sucks? - Did this be linked into in Peppa Pig videos? - This is the worst formatted in like structure and Wikipedia. Sorry, like, not your main page. I think we've ever seen on YouTube. On February 27th, the Daily Doc published an end statement. What, what, what, don't you mean publish a statement? You can publish the end for it. - Oh boy. - A post statement from YouTube, in which they just denied receiving any recent evidence or videos promoting the suicide game on the platform. - The guys have stood a blue well challenge. The blue Peppa challenge. - It's a true blue Peppa challenge. (laughing) - This is the club. Contrary to press reports, we've not received any recent evidence of video showing or promoting the Momo challenge on YouTube. Conte of this kind would be in violation of our policies and removed immediately. Related memes, Peppa Pig hanging up. Peppa Pig hanging up also known as Peppa, Peppa hangs up the phone is a scene from the Peppa Pig episode Whistling, which an often used online as a reaction. - I want to take a guess and guess the episode about Whistling, Peppa learns how to whistle, then Daddy Pig gets mad and then abuses Peppa, and then she gets taken away by CPS. (laughing) - I'm sorry, why, you know? - Is that real? - Yeah. - Cool. Also, I'm pretty sure the Momo thing was just like an entire like hoax. I don't think anyone ever died. If they did, they're stupid. - Because I don't care about me. - Peppa Pig, Peppa Pig grown up music parodies. Peppa Pig grown up music parody videos are edited versions of the clip from the children's show Peppa Pig in which music played over a radio and the cartoon is replaced with other music. Usually of a course or bizarre nature. - Yeah, that got out music. That was black people, what was that like now? - I actually know that thing. It was pretty decent. - Yeah. - I mean, I'm the only good rapper. - Okay, I've literally never said that. - I'm not making fun of you. - Okay, I thought you were. - He's the only good one. - Well, that hood music. I just looked at the blue whale challenge, so they forgot what it even was. Cut a blue whale into your shoulder. - Cut a blue whale. - Wait, I had 420 and what are moving? Cut three vertical lines on the main good parentheses, not too deep. Drop a blue whale in the paper. If you are ready to be a whale, cut the ass off your fly. If not, it cuts several times as you're so stupid. - Cut a blue pep on here. - Am I being insensitive? Did anybody even die from this? - If they did, I feel like they kind of deserve it. Who's doing that? - From Ram. - Cut a blue pep on your arm. - What? Hundreds of teens suicide? - Jesus Christ. - How does this even happen? - People are stupid, man. - Can you claim that over 130 to 200 youth suicides were caused by the game? - You think Peppa Pegas killed someone? - Wait, wait, real world impact, though the mastermind game was a myth. Okay, so it's not real? Okay, now some people. - Some dude probably wrote it as a joke that like, oh, obviously no one's ever gonna do this. This is so stupid. - Yeah, some person like said something blue whale and then killed themselves. And then that was like a part of those. That like kind of started, whatever. This stuff is so stupid and I'm glad it doesn't exist today. Because like, what do you mean? Like, like we were, we were cutting blue whales into themselves and thinking that MoMo was gonna, not in a sciory DDLC hang them. - Dude, I was worried. I thought, I thought MoMo was gonna get me. - You know, I was scared too and I was linking back on it. I wish I could, you know, punch myself. - Isn't it real? They're a fool. But I was like, I was like, eight, so, what do I do? - Yeah, let's do this. - I do remember, I remember the MoMo stuff being edited into Peppa Pegas videos. I do remember that. - Yeah, I do, I do remember that too. Do you remember that, do you ever see any of those? The Peppa Peg MoMo stuff? - MoMo, I really? - I avoided MoMo like the plague is scowy. - I like Google, MoMo and stuff. - Oh my God. Do you see that? - So MoMo's not in trouble for having their background MoMo. - MoMo out of that, MoMo X. - How do you get that MoMo from school? - Oh, okay. - Oh my God, yes. Right, you were an elementary school from MoMo. - Yeah, you were? - No, I was in middle school. - All right. - Oh, MoMo. - Ah, Kappa. - Let's do the In My Peppa's Challenge. - Oh. - You, you love me. Are you doing the Blue Peppa Challenge? - No, wait, let's do a new thing. - Guys, do a hashtag, Blue Wild Peppa, sorry. Blue Peppa Challenge. And we're gonna be tweeting out some instructions on how to hack your mouth. And you better do them, or you know, MoMo is gonna resurrect from the grave. - Do the In My Blue Wild. - I can't get a little challenge. (laughing) - Okay, don't, it's a, like, penile disease. (laughing) - The Blue, Blue Waffle Peppa Challenge. (laughing) - I should make, I should, I'm sorry, I should make a Twitter. What does it mean? I should make a Twitter account for playing. Do not download Twitter, it's not real. It's not on the app store.

Remember what are the instructions? Can you tell us step one? - Well, first, you have to get a Blue Waffle. And then you have to get pepper. And you have to put it in a pepper-like shaker. I'm sure that exists, let me look that up. And then-- - Pepper, pepper, shaker. - Pepper, pepper, shaker. I'm, like, 1,000% sure this exists. Pepper, pig, it does. You get a pepper, pig, pepper, shaker, and then put pepper on the Blue Waffle. And then you've done the blue, the Blue Waffle, the Blue Waffle Peppa Challenge. - Great. - What do we think about this meme? - Pepper pig stuff is, like the MLG parodies are funny. I remember watching those. I don't really have anything bad to say about peppers, just kind of not really relevant anymore. irrelevant Yeah, that's kind of say like it was it was good when it was like at its peak, but like now it's just It's not really talked about anymore I mean, it's an okay meme I mean it's all right I agree I think Peppa I've always been fascinated with Peppa Pig because like It's never something that I watched I always thought it was more like something from 2015 and I didn't think it was like 2005, you know like before I was born For all three of us were born I think like the MLG Peppa videos were funny like like BCA was talking about I think those were those were cool It's like the the concept of taking a child a kid show character It made in doing like an MLG thing is something to kind of miss honestly Just like something so simple It was it was cool brings back you should remake Sonic sus me no I'll do it. No, I mean, yeah, you do it. I'm not doing it Oh No, why did I do that? Why did I do that? Why did I do that I'm gonna use that as a slander No, please I'm a plus that's where you go look at REMTGM set seven years ago I know I'm sorry It's gonna be it's gonna be the internet's like first major impression of you I've made it continue. Yeah, I'm gonna say that you were 22 when you posted that oh my god I've made a severe continuous lapse in my judgment. I think there's someone top of right there I think they're someone doing the blue awful Peppa challenge right there Oh, yeah, that's right. I forgot She's literally just a statue It's like nine of the museum she's gonna come to life and start killing me. There's Momo rule 34 Yeah, there is actually I've seen that on Instagram. Okay I just so happened to look it up on Google one time and yeah, I just like I'm installing the virus But Yeah, the MLG Peppa stuff is funny. I distinctly remembered image of her holding an op We're like a sniper and she has like weed in her mouth and she has like Like the Illuminati is somewhere and she has like an MLG hat on and the epic glasses I remember that specifically like when I think Peppa pig memes. That's what I think of I do too Yeah, it's like John Peppa Pig Yeah, John Peppa John Blue Waffle Peppa His name is my name too Anyways, it's actually sounds like something that it was saying on Yeah, it's a kid song My name's Blue Waffle too and you're I love blue waffles No, no And it loves the waffles Yeah, this means okay Yeah, yoke. Yeah I think so All right, well, we'll see you guys the next segment make sure to do hashtag Blue Waffle Peppa challenge and we'll see you all later. Goodbye. Bye.

We're not doing fine the funny again Okay, but this is a fun one. This is this is always a fun one ladies and gentlemen. Welcome back to bestfest In best fest what you must do is when it is our turn Sorry, we will all The three of us We'll be given a Number in a random number generator and whatever number we get that corresponds with the episode number the meme that that That that we did for that episode We have to defend that meme Like it is the best meme of all time even if you don't agree that it is You need to do your best to make the other two believe it So we have a perk of wheel that we call the name and it has all three of our names on it And we are gonna be spending it to see who goes for a second and third and today's mean names. Let's see who's going first Mega Man is going first in today's new games. Oh my thumb guys. I cut my thumb no more videos ever Yeah, why please you never Let's see who's going to second I'm going second which means Ram is going last unfortunately, you know, that's what he gets for For what I didn't do anything Like you just you didn't know who gave the best one Everyone go follow Dave the mess on this room, uh, but Yeah, so Mega Man is going first among second runs going last guys ready. Yes. Yeah, all right Okay, stop three two one. Yeah Okay, uh mega-man your episode number is 177 that is I don't know I think it's Duolingo honest. Wait, no Uh, it might be Duolingo Yeah, that's wait. No, it's 16. Yeah, it might be Duolingo I don't know though What did he get? 177 it is Duolingo Have fun Um, BCA your next you got episode 260 260, I think that's darker than 20. Oh, it's loving I miss loving loving as funny it was all right and now for mine I got 29. Oh boy. Uh-oh what What the hell did we do for that? Uh, that is lego preaching. Oh my god Oh, yeah, sorry, I know 29. Uh, happy, so all right. Yeah, yes. Yeah Guys remember when episodes were like 10 minutes long. Yeah, remember when we sucked to make sure that it is uh, it just passed by it's 177 Yeah, it is Duolingo. Okay, that's unfortunate I think you can't talk. It's party. Yeah, it's by yay Oh, go, go, go, go. Yeah, I need to stop I'm gonna like this that came with our own Okay, I keep on like looking at all these episodes. It just like reminds me how long we've been doing this. I know isn't that so weird to think about to just like look at something like To get this like older episodes that are from like even like a year to a go you have to scroll so much Yeah, Ram, did you use an AI image of Verity? No, that's the one that's from um Uh, it's was posted that was um, what's his name? Is that a photo? Is that a photo? It was made by um, pre-craft How do you know was made by pre-craft? Because it was in his thumbnail I think I think I don't know man. It's Verity. Who cares. I Oh, yeah, as opposed to the fake Verity Yeah, that's falsity Hey, you guys ready? Yeah I hit my thumb, it's throttling, it's not hot, man And my thumb hurts, dude, I sliced it open, it doesn't feel good It's hot There's not a great start saying you have to say it's the bad side I think Twillingo is one of the best memes out there because One he helps you speak different languages Two And I do know birds it does remind me of my My poppies bird and uh who is gone and no longer with us Uh, and the re Uh Definitely is a great motivator for you to keep learning how to speak Spanish and stuff You know I don't admire all these of yours always less Isn't that How that works with trying to explain why Well, I mean, yeah, this meme is a little bit This meme's the best. It's like a good go on, go on I think that's it for me What a mic drop Mickey Mouse I'll give you a mid low for an attempt Have we ever given anything a mid low Maybe Actually, I don't think we have it's just like such an auto rating breaking breaking me around here Big man tell me why for nice to this game Tell you I have a hard time trying to think of things on the spot. Yeah, that's for like I have a hard time with it That's there is a time in yes, so I can probably tell you why But if you're asking me now, I couldn't even think of one thing because I don't have that much in well I think it's hard to think of anything anyway. He's doing his socks, but Do you get a good chocolate? Yeah, wait you didn't even give it a rating Oh, sorry. Sorry. It's all right. It's me Okay, I would say it's Man Maybe when you feel offended if I gave you a low low But I know it's not that great. Yeah, there's some mid low and a low low Dragon yes I just said BCA like I'm not BCA That says the Bible You question the words of the mighty Jimmy You know where he's going. I had to be shot What was mine No, I don't even remember. I oh In the Who's loving it all right guys All right, three two one All right, so gloving is the best meme of all time and you know, why is that uh one Remember like all the TikToks that people are making or it's like It's like the past And then that's actually relevant because gloving was it thinking the past gloving? Has been going on for like on ironically decades and I watched like a whole TikTok essay about it Yeah TikTok videos can be like 30 minutes long Yes, yeah, it's weird, but I watched the whole TikTok essay about it But it was like loving like gloving is not a new thing loving has been anything for decades It was used at rains and stuff and anyone who goes to raves now like you know be put on a watch list, but Gloving isn't a new thing and gloving actually takes a little bit of skill I'm not gonna say a lot of it is skilled because that's that's pushing it but Gloving is not something that anybody can just pick up and you loving is something that you actually have to learn and there's patterns and there's stuff You need to do with your hands because you have gloves on but It's just an interesting thing. It's interesting that a community It's a pretty niche community. It's interesting that a niche community of people Can just kind of take over the internet for like a week Like however unintentional or intentional that was because the gloving thing was not intentional I don't think they were intentionally trying to Get made upon him for a week, but It's just it's interesting the whole thing about gloving was interesting. I found some of them actually pretty cool There's this guy who does like gloving tutorials. He's pretty neat He still does them because he's an actual lover and has been doing it for like five years But it's it's interesting and I think this is a pretty good contender for best meme Because like it there was a double culture behind it that probably nobody would have realized existed if this thing didn't become a punching bag for like a week So it was pretty cool That was good It's a deep gloving This is that I'd probably I think I'd give that a a mid-high Okay, I think that was a very nice very good explanation Definitely mid-high as well All right, did you just like did this person just try this person? I think you ugly monster You're supposed like you're a god-child What in here he just pulled something in an anime game I'm pretty sure he's close to it well blam it's his blam but I'm playing but it's like new grounds so you got MLG glasses on he does anyways I gotta be high to be high wrap it up next let's hear it all right so pepe solvia is the best meme of all time because it has been something that is very versatile within theorist communities not even just within theory communities but also within individual fandoms when there is a theory usual or like this long string of theories that connect to certain ideas and if it's something that's like overly complicated or that they can't figure out they'll post usually that image from the episode or Charlie's pointing at the the cork board with all the different things and they'll usually put like the character from whatever fandom it is over Charlie's face and it's very versatile in terms of it works for many different it can work for any community that has theories within whatever the community is based off so for example you'll see ones with delta runes a perfect example because it's it's it's almost exactly a reference I'm pretty sure it's a reference to it in one of in chapter four secret boss one of chapter four secret bosses there's there's a pretty direct reference to it with I don't I don't want to give it me I don't want to spoil anything but the thing is it's like it's not only used just in like subreddit it's also a reference throughout other media as well so it's the meme can be used by anyone in any community when something is confusing which not many memes can be done for that usually has to be a specific context for something but it can be used within any theory any like convoluted storyline because it doesn't even have to be a theory could just be a storyline that isn't finished or um has been teased or something that's going on with a certain character you know different arcs and stuff so with that much versatility within the meme itself it can be used in many different situations and in any fandom slash fanbase that is it that's pretty good I like uh you know uh I actually have a question uh is there like was Delterun intentionally that's I'm not going to even ask that as a student question no other way is Delterun like intentionally a theory game but it's going to end at some point so no because like Fanalf would be a theory game because we weren't given like all the details and whatever yeah but I feel like Toby's gonna do that I need to play Dodgerun it's on the list yeah I'd say mid-high other than the free game yeah I'd say mid-high too which means you look at me and around I mean yeah you say I feel bad for a mega man we gave him a little bit wow well I gave him a good deal he really listed dueling of being a bird at all being a helpful like linguist hey what what does it have to do with memes that's starting to get this we should give mega man a minute or a minute or two yeah yeah we should do that that's a good idea but uh yeah mega man you say a thing uh Rem and BC both good point I do not sadly because mine sucked making you some work it sucked this will give mega man time next time I think it is yeah anyway we'll see you all in criticism castle goodbye goodbye bye bye bye hello everyone and welcome to

it's been so long since I last commented on this peak podcast also I talked about lesbian space princess on my pod go listen please and there's a question for episode 300 which will save yeah lesbian space for I think I talked about it earlier or like in an earlier have I it was actually the worst thing I have ever seen it is like by it on ironic is the worst animated thing any like Adam is the worst movie I've ever watched it is objective it is objectively a bad movie like it's not even like like a personal thing of like what's of like the content that's in it and how I feel about it's literally objectively like it fails being a movie and a coherent story so spectacularly that it like amazes me that it exists and that like people care about it very select few people yeah yeah but we watched it we hated it you can always tell when people are lapping in the comments because people will call a willow she instead of that which also I feel like that defeats the purpose of her being a lesbian space princess if she's not even dating a girl yeah well then she is dating a girl it's true she's dating a they do is a I don't care does it matter this is lesbian space princess yeah well she also doesn't date that willow she dates the other one yeah well at the end she does nobody it's true yeah inside space princess you want to go listen to someone rant about Lizzie and space princess go hop over to who wrote this review says Greg stew his podcast is called let me see fried memes go over to fried memes by Greg stew if you want to go listen to more lesbian space ranting is that movie actually sucked I am being so serious when I say this do not watch this movie it sucks is not worth your time is not funny enough to like even a watch even like hate watch it is just a bad movie and I also like to point out something if you're an alien how can you be considered Indian what sorry what yeah because the main character is somehow Indian but she is yep she literally says it herself oh wait yeah wait maybe she doesn't live on earth how is she Indian maybe there's maybe there's an Indian clitopia God can you see that I mean it's it's human anatomy you know whatever God I hate this woman on whoever made whoever wrote that genuinely like you should question what you're doing in your life probably tell yourself you're well who knows nothing about writing professional scripts stop writing yeah also like I'd consider like I wouldn't kill yourself I'd like I'd like I'd consider what lesbian space princess yeah it didn't wasn't supposed to come out in theaters today I wasn't the worst thing that happened I'd probably you had to where I'd be yeah we had thanks drinks to you for the five suspects our view no no question but Ram would you like to ask us a question I would but before that Poe left pretty much kind of a review here about us doing the Peppa oh my god right now because Peppa Pig Poe has been suggesting us for such a long time yeah I cannot believe when I'm reading with my with my eyes right here so Poe said this review is titled nothing because it's on discord and he said I need to tell y'all I never wanted you to do Peppa Pig I was just goofing around eventually the joke grew over time and I really started wanting a Peppa Pig episode what started is just a joke eventually became a feeling and my new favorite episode something I thought would never happen since I listened to Pinguist episode thank you all guys listen I think this is this was such a fun episode I had so much fun doing this off track so many times that's like actually what happened with me in BB 90 he's on ironically my one of my top three favorite Star Wars characters now it's weird how much this podcast is just like like jokes have turned into it's like meaningful things yeah I've got the blue waffle Peppa challenge okay let's hope it does thank you Puyo for those those kind words I'm happy you and I'm really happy like this episode I wanted to make sure I wanted I was really hoping that you would like the episode because I've been wanting to do this since like almost since like around 200 I've been saving it specifically for 2.99 so yeah thank you so much oh do you have more son no that's it that's thanks so much the ECD top hat Greg stew and Puyo for the five star and suppose to fight well only suppose the five star abuse if you want to be in criticism cast the next time make sure to leave her view five star not it doesn't matter we just want to hear your criticism like the name implies I question from yeah let's see yeah your around what's your question what's your questions over my question for you to is um any day now hey I'm trying to think here who is someone you'd like to vaporize if you to have you had a verity what would you do with it I'm trying to think of like an act for like meaningful question and you're just like all verity what is what is your what is a moment from the podcast that you guys like think back on sometimes and are just like happy happened because it just like holds like a meaning it's just like it's meaningful to you and it just like makes you happy that you've done the podcast I like when we all say do the Mario that was fun I think I sure did I try yeah yeah we all say yeah yeah so long and we all went and remember everyone do the Mario or something I mean I said singing oh yeah it's in one of the read and one of the takes like one of the what's the word one of the one of the read oh my god it you talked about the part where you edited it out I had to edit yeah yeah the part where or we had to rerecord it all over again like I remember how at the end of the yeah and it showed like the people that made the show and one of them was deep yeah oh yeah and then Mega Man said to the D word I had to I'd use Spotify for pot which at the time it was still anchor Jesus I'd use anchors like primitive mobile editing to get rid of it and then like make an entire segment where Mega Man just said deep instead or something like that Mega Man what's your answer to that question you know I just can't remember I need a favorite moment on the podcast was when I accidentally sent that meme I don't know if I could necessarily pick one but I feel it's it's it's the same type of scenario it's every time we've had in like a moment where you make like a really funny inside joke that continues it's some of them even like even when they don't continue just like a moment where one of us says something really funny and then we all laugh about it and talk about it for a few minutes and then we reference it from time to time it's just like what's up yeah what's up Marion chin it's just like it's like every time I call you every time I call you it's you get dude it's just like moments like those especially like in this episode the blue waffle pepper challenge it's just like moments like that where we all are like laughing together and adding on to the joke and saying just like fun stuff it's just like I appreciate the fact that we've been able to do this podcast for so long and with each other I wouldn't want to do the podcast with anyone else like I really don't know two other people that I'd want to do it with because it's just like it feels it feels so right but anyway it's just like oh hey hold on I'm not I'm not I'm not done yeah just moments where we're we're all doing stuff like that we're doing stuff like that we're graduating what I've already been saying but I just like I love moments like that that like it make people know how much we enjoy doing this podcast because it we really do I I today all day at work all day by day I've been thinking about how excited I am to do the podcast and it's just it's so much fun I have so much fun doing it um

FAQs

The Peppa Pig meme originated from early 2010s internet culture, where videos of the children's show were parodied or edited for humor, especially in MLG (Multiplayer Gaming League) style content. These videos often featured absurd or edgy scenarios, like Peppa being sent to a slaughterhouse, and were popularized by YouTubers like 'Brutally Dorks' and 'Jeff.' The meme peaked around 2016–2018 and was a common internet trend involving child show characters.

Yes, there were online controversies, such as fake videos claiming to show Peppa Pig being edited with 'Momo' or 'blue whale' challenges. These were largely hoaxes or parodies. For example, a 'blue whale challenge' was falsely reported to involve teens cutting themselves, though no real deaths were confirmed. YouTube denied receiving any such evidence, and experts noted these were internet myths with minimal real-world impact.

The 'Blue Peppa Challenge' was a fictional or satirical internet challenge that involved humorous or absurd instructions, like eating a blue waffle with pepper. It was a parody of dangerous online challenges and was created as a joke to highlight how easily internet content can be misinterpreted or spread without real intent. It reflects the absurdity of viral trends involving children's media.

Peppa Pig became a cultural phenomenon because of its simplicity and universality as a children's show. Internet users took its characters and used them in parodies, memes, and surreal edits, especially during the peak of internet meme culture in the mid-2010s. The show's repetitive, predictable nature made it ideal for parody and absurd storytelling, sparking widespread engagement across platforms.

While Peppa Pig has declined in popularity compared to its peak in the mid-2010s, it remains a nostalgic reference in meme communities. Its influence is now more about retro internet culture than active engagement, and it's often referenced as a symbol of early internet absurdity and the overuse of children's show characters in viral content.

Yes, a fictional Peppa Pig music album was humorously announced in 2016, with a fake tweet claiming 'Peppa Pig' released a debut album. This viral stunt was part of a broader internet meme, and it was taken seriously by some fans, leading to real-world responses like a collaboration between Peppa Pig and Australian rapper Iki Azela, though it was a fictional and satirical event.
