- 1:12so congratulations to him and much appreciate it. And speaking of theme music,
- 1:18like we happen to have with us, the writer of our greatest themes
- 1:23ever, it's Mexican, Hi MESI. Yeah, yeah, what's up everybody?
- 1:29Well, let us upsurd oh go ahead. Definitely congrats to doctor Kerosene
- 1:34Letter, and I'm gonna go a little music nerd right off the bat.
- 1:38I love his modal shift that he does for your guys' intro, So tell
- 1:42him that if he listened to this, he does is amazing I love that.
- 1:48I'll pass it on to I'll definitely pass that along. Uh so,
- 1:51uh, doctor, you have a memo, We asked Mexi on the show
- 1:57because he has just released my favorite record of the year. Without doubt,
- 2:05it's gotten It's gotten more play than Rush has this year, which is saying
- 2:07something. But I just can't get over how good this this EP is.
- 2:13It's called Perseverance, or you could say Perseverance, but it's it is literally
- 2:20separated as Perseverance, So make sure you leave the space in there. It's
- 2:23an EP, It's got five songs on it. All five are bangers.
- 2:28But I'll tell the world that the title track, Perseverance, it was an
- 2:31immediate out of the gate favorite for me and Lyddy and Opus grew on me
- 2:37to overtake Perseverance's number one spot. Those are the two I listened to like
- 2:40pretty much back to back to back to back to back to back to back,
- 2:45so I appreciate it. And you know, just a quick backstory,
- 2:49so you do have it right. The title of the EP is per Severance.
- 2:53Yeah, And the reason I kind of came up with that is,
- 2:58I mean it's kind of on the nose, right I went through a pretty
- 3:00bad personal severance in my life back in twenty fifteen twenty sixteen. But through
- 3:07that severance, I learned to persevere, mainly at the time for my two
- 3:13young children that I had. So there's actually a line in the song Perseverance
- 3:17where it says perseverance for the two have it all, and I'm literally talking
- 3:25about my children. Yeah, there's a lot of heart that goes into that
- 3:30song. So yeah, I appreciate it. It's evident from the off that
- 3:34this was very personal. Yeah, oh for sure. I thought it was
- 3:38way out there with this one. It's and it definitely comes through. I
- 3:43mean, you can tell when there's passion behind a song and when there isn't,
- 3:51when it's just kind of like I have an idea for a song,
- 3:53I'm going to make it, and you know, there's not really a lot
- 3:55of feeling behind it, or maybe it's just to fill up an album.
- 3:59Maybe sometimes this is my throwaway song. I didn't get any feelings of any
- 4:03throwaway songs on this album whatsoever, Like it feels it feels like each one
- 4:09was like a particular piece to this puzzle. Yeah, absolutely, Yeah,
- 4:13I mean, just another quick backstory, the song overcome. You know,
- 4:16I've since you know, gotten remarried, and my wife, Miranda, who
- 4:20I love so dearly. She's just been when you guys have better, you
- 4:25know, she's just great's and lovely, absolutely love. Yeah, definitely.
- 4:29She actually had went through a medical issue recently and she literally I mean she's
- 4:34fine now, but she literally was sitting in a in a lonely chair.
- 4:39She couldn't get up out of the chair. So that the song starts off,
- 4:41you know, sitting in the lonely chair feeling like no one cares or
- 4:45whatever the lyrics are. I don't even remember lyrics, but written about that
- 4:48song was written about about her and and and what what I had to go
- 4:51through, and I kind of had to see her go through that. So
- 4:55no, it is definitely a very personal, very there's definitely reasons behind it.
- 4:59So yeah, very cool, very cool. And on top of that,
- 5:03you recently released another single Time Yeah tell me, yeah, so tell
- 5:09me about time and how time came about? Not that the concept of time
- 5:14yeah yeah, yeah, Well see there there's you know, it takes one
- 5:16point. Yes, no, no, time is is it's a it's a
- 5:27and actually I put it if you go to my YouTube channel, YouTube dot
- 5:30com, slash Mexican. I actually put a video up last night, matter
- 5:33of fact, so I don't know when this will air, but if you
- 5:35go there, it's there explaining at least the music theory behind it. It's
- 5:40a it's a little motif that I had been playing around with for years,
- 5:44and the lyrics are again it's a very personal situation. It's it's a very
- 5:53fresh personal situation. So I don't think I'm gonna get too much into the
- 5:57lyrics at this point, but basically, I guess overall speaking, it's it's
- 6:01it's just talking about relationships in general. I don't make currify. My wife
- 6:06and I are fine. Yeah yeah, but then yeah, I saw something
- 6:16on your Facebook about a sprinkler. I don't want to get into it,
- 6:18but it sounded it sounded like you're fine. I'm just saying, yeah,
- 6:24yeah, the sprinkler works just fine. I have I have a video proof,
- 6:36but no, the song the song time. I guess in general,
- 6:40it's like with any relationship you have, whether it's with a friend or a
- 6:43relative or or anybody, it's like, you know, sometimes you go through,
- 6:48you go through. I don't really even know how to word it,
- 6:51but sometimes you go even if it's with your best friend, like you're hanging
- 6:56out, you're chilling, but sometimes maybe your best friend might cross the line
- 7:00that you're not willing to cross, and when they do that, you're like,
- 7:04hey, I can't, I can't cross that line. You know you're
- 7:08gonna have to You're gonna have to get out of my life or fade away
- 7:12with You're going to fade alone in time because I'm not willing to cross that
- 7:15line with you. So that's kind of what the song Time is about.
- 7:19But ultimately it was just a motif that I had played around with. But
- 7:24again, go check out that YouTube video. It's it's a little bit music
- 7:26theory ish, but it just kind of talks about my writing process and how
- 7:30it came along with time. And there are two versions of the song,
- 7:32the acoustic version, so it's kind of like a double released single. The
- 7:35acoustic version is kind of the original version version of it, but I wanted
- 7:40to create like a rocking version of it just to kind of play around in
- 7:43vocal harmonies and stuff like that. So I say a little bit, a
- 7:46little bit for everybody, But no, again, you know what I've been
- 7:48finding is. I used to write songs that just sounded cool, and they
- 7:54sound cool they jam. But more recently, you know, I'm I'm you
- 7:57know, we're all about the same age, you know I'm getting and it's
- 8:01like, I don't have anything to hide at this point. You know what,
- 8:03I'm not in junior high. I'm not in high school. I'm not
- 8:05trying to keep some image up anymore. I'm just writing music that's coming from
- 8:09my heart, So you know that. It's That's kind of where I'm at
- 8:11right now. Weirdly, with the oncoming apocalypse, I'm less afraid. Yeah,
- 8:16there you go. I'm just like set up and OnlyFans with my sprinkler
- 8:22so so so please listener. I'd appreciate if you wait until after the episode,
- 8:31but you should check out perseverance and time when you get a chance.
- 8:35Guarantee it's worth your time. Not in a pun I meant to make.
- 8:39But Okay, And there's a reason why Mexi is so near and dear to
- 8:43our hearts. And it's not just because he created all of our jingles,
- 8:46which are spectacular, which we absolutely love. An but way, way,
- 8:52way way back in the day, I had a YouTube channel called Pantciley shorts,
- 8:58and Mexi was literally the first person who was a fan that I knew
- 9:03of that wasn't family or friends. Like everybody who had watched the videos,
- 9:09commented on them, subscribed. All that stuff I knew were people I knew
- 9:13personally. Mexi was the first person I didn't personally know who followed our Facebook
- 9:16page, and I was like, holy crap, it's a real fan.
- 9:20I was so excited. It's real, It's real. I was so excited.
- 9:24So I naturally just like kind of got to know him and fronted him
- 9:28on Facebook. And here we are fifteen, almost twenty years later. Don't
- 9:35say that that hurt. It did hurt. I'm sorry. It's all so
- 9:41anyway, all of this is a long way around of like, I was
- 9:45trying to figure out what to do for this episode. I tossed around several
- 9:46ideas. I considered maybe doing a metal music episode, but we've just done
- 9:50a music app and I thought what else could we jam with Mexi about?
- 9:54And given that I just had a celebratory and masturbatory fane audiobook episode, I
- 10:00figured, let's take me down a peg and let's make fun of the videos.
- 10:03We all made together fifteen years ago, and along the way we'll share
- 10:07a little love for the first fan Pancil Shorts ever had, who wasn't family
- 10:09or Friends, and his outstanding album and single release. So this is a
- 10:15Pancil Shorts retrospective. We are going to talk about and make fun of the
- 10:20videos we made fifteen years ago, and it should be a fun ride,
- 10:26just real quick, because we've already done a long intro thing with Mexi.
- 10:30But Seebee, what is your favorite track off of Perseverance and why is it
- 10:35Lydy and Opus? I know, I know, I don't know, I
- 10:41was. I was listening to it like four times so far, and I
- 10:45had to get a different iTunes account because I don't have iTunes to get to
- 10:50listen to and it is available on all tho the streaming services as well.
- 10:56And just a really quick note, for some reason, time is not yet
- 11:01posted on Apple Music, but it's on iTunes, it's on Spotify, it's
- 11:05on Pandora's everywhere else but Apple Music. There's a little delay in it for
- 11:07some reason. But anyway, it's service. It's good to know. Yeah,
- 11:11awesome, all right, Well, there'll be another I believe I tried
- 11:13getting it on Apple and I failed, Like it wouldn't let me log in,
- 11:16Like the Apple login system was so obtuse and difficult that I gave up
- 11:22and I was like, I'm just gonna buy it on Amazon. I just
- 11:26I just gonna roll over to a different streaming service and buy it there,
- 11:28even though I'd already paid for it on Apple. It was bizarre, Aggy.
- 11:33Have you listened to Perseverance? Yes? I have, mostly because Steve
- 11:37plays it on repeat? Okay, nice. Do you have a preferential song
- 11:41and anything to you? Yes, Perseverance because it is the only one I've
- 11:45heard because Stev's just played it non stop. But yeah, no, not
- 11:50I know that where I can access the album? Yeah, definitely. Will
- 11:54you should get the others, and I promise you Lydia and Opus will grow
- 11:58on you. It's really good. I just love that song. I can
- 12:03go on and on about it. Let's play some games, gentlemen, That's
- 12:05what we're here for. Let's play some games. We're gonna play Game one.
- 12:09I'm calling it Roast Battle. I'm gonna bring up five and I will
- 12:13not use the term classic pantslash shorts videos that we made together and we'll talk
- 12:18about what it was like to make them, and I'll give my players the
- 12:20opportunity to roast the video. If your savage roast gets a laugh out of
- 12:24me, you earn a point for that video, and players keep their points
- 12:28into the remaining games. That's right, it's a free for all. All
- 12:31three of you are playing for your individual point totals, and whoever has the
- 12:33most points after all three games wins. So Stevie, Augie and Mexi are
- 12:39on their own, all right. So the first video I'm going to bring
- 12:43up is the first one we ever made, and that's the talk. The
- 12:50talk. So this was an idea gone hilariously wrong from the off. I
- 12:58was just like, what if a dad and his son had the Birds and
- 13:01the Beast talk? But the dad was like maximum PERV, Like him and
- 13:09his wife have been doing like every sexy, dirty thing they could under the
- 13:13sun. He knows like all the terms and he's just completely unabashed. Say
- 13:18whatever. He's like, my son's old enough. I can now reveal how
- 13:20big of a PERV we are, and I will openly admit the video has
- 13:28not aged. Well, no, there are some things in it. I
- 13:33mildly regret mildly, mildly. I didn't even say anything in that video,
- 13:39and I mildly regret. I think it was the roast beef comment that got
- 13:50me in the first, got me in the most trouble. I got me
- 13:54in the most trouble. So, yeah, man, you were actually in
- 14:01that. I was just crazy. But you were the youngest person I knew
- 14:03and could pass through like a young teenager. So I was like, hey,
- 14:07he was a young teenager. Well he was, but he was seventeen
- 14:11eighty seventeen, eighteen seventeen, yeah, eighteen. Let's just say he was
- 14:15eighteen for legal purpose. I was eighteen and a half. Thank you.
- 14:22I appreciate the thoughtfulness. H Yeah, it doesn't really matter, but yeah,
- 14:30what what to say about it? I will say that we owe a
- 14:35lot to Jorge on that. Jorge was there. He was our camera most
- 14:39and a lot of the lines were his devising, because they almost always were.
- 14:46If we say something in a video, there's a ninety percent chance that
- 14:50came up. Inspiring words to me was stop fucking laughing, but you're a
- 14:56lip's don't look at him? Yeah, because every time he would laugh and
- 15:03break the break the scene we'd have to redo it. It was legitimately hard
- 15:07to get through a lot of those sakes, right, and now he was
- 15:09saying the most awful things, and now I gotta roast it. Yeah,
- 15:13now it's time to roast it. I think, Okay, I'm pretty sure
- 15:16this video is the reason why I'm asexual. That is a that is a
- 15:26point for age, That is a point for aye. That was savage and
- 15:31I absolutely laughed. Jesus Stepne MEXI you want to roast it? I God,
- 15:37damn. It helps that I was also in the video. Yeah,
- 15:43Stevie has a bit part in the video. He shows up for like two
- 15:46lines, Oh yeah, because it's threesome Thursday Thursday. It was probably the
- 15:54best bit out of the whole thing. Like, the only thing that would
- 15:58have made it better is we actually had a room in the back. We
- 16:00shot one or two scenes back there too, Like he shows up with a
- 16:03bag and he's like, oh, I'm here about flower sales. I'm like,
- 16:08it's a most ridiculous thing, a strap hanging out of the bag.
- 16:12And I'm like, no, it's okay, I'm giving him the talk.
- 16:15It's like, sweet, I brought the strap on just immediately switches gears.
- 16:22Oh man, I have to say that I can't tell you. I can't
- 16:26tell that this is the worst thing that came out of or the best thing.
- 16:29But some Thursday became a real thing after that. That's a point for
- 16:37Stevie. That's a point for Stevie. Maxie, you got anything anything about
- 16:42this video you'd like to make fun of? Yeah, I mean, I'm
- 16:45still wondering. You guys have a lot of memorabilia in that in your studio
- 16:49there wors the oscar for Augie's performance, I think so. Yeah, I
- 17:00don't know much being a musician. I don't know much about like the film
- 17:04industry or how to how to make films. But did you do it?
- 17:08Because you had two cameras right or one set up on you and one set
- 17:12up on Augie. Would use the same camera to go back and forth.
- 17:15We used the same camera, so whenever I knew it was just gonna be
- 17:18just me, I would have Jorge just focusing on me, and I would
- 17:22do all of my single shot scenes, one after another after another. Then
- 17:26we did take another set up on Augie, and then we did a wide
- 17:30shot so I could touch Okay, because the one thing I remember about that
- 17:33video is like a genuinely looked highly uncomfortable. But I didn't know because he
- 17:40was, because I was, because he was. He was so uncomfortable the
- 17:44whole time. I was eighteen and a half and I didn't. I just
- 17:49remember that, And for clarity, I didn't even have the real talk at
- 17:53that point. No, oh my god, my father had passed away like
- 17:59a year or so beforehand, so I never had the real talk until like
- 18:03almost half a year after that. Yeah. Yeah, I just remember the
- 18:11fright on his face, and I didn't know if that was like a live
- 18:14reaction. We we we put you through the worst possible. They told me
- 18:18to act horrified, but it just it was quite easy to do. It
- 18:22came naturally, well, points points all around for everybody. Everybody got a
- 18:26point on that one. That was an easy target, but I mean it
- 18:30was great. Let's move on to our second video. Stevie after Dentist.
- 18:34Oh my god, Now this is a funny video because you were you had
- 18:40literally been to the dentist that day. Yeah, this came upon. I
- 18:45was done at the dentist. I came over to the apartment to hang out,
- 18:48and I was like, you I can remember somebody barely talk. I
- 18:52had a bunch of teeth taken out, and we were just like, this
- 18:57is hilarious. Let's make a video out of it, like right there.
- 19:02So in the video, Stevie really is he's he's not in pain, but
- 19:07he's really bandaged up. It's it's a genuine dental stuff he had done that
- 19:11day. Uh so it's it's absolutely genuine. And we just were like,
- 19:17let's have him say the most horrific, atrocious stuff we can think of and
- 19:21just have me mishear it as something else. And then at the end,
- 19:26the twist is that I understood you correctly the entire time and was fucking with
- 19:30you. So like it. I loved putting a little twist on the end.
- 19:38I loved putting something like a little after the credits, like got your
- 19:42nipples tweak, you know, uh tweak, hitch hit you with something you
- 19:48don't see coming, you know, a little last night a shot a rim
- 19:52shot literally. So yeah, So that was a lot of fun to make
- 19:59and my favorite, like out of for no reason other than it was something
- 20:03I'd come across. It was. It was a version of Doom two with
- 20:07call of duty weapons which we all had at that time too, So it
- 20:11literally starts with me just playing Call of Duty Doom like yeah, yeah,
- 20:18so it's so bizarre, like what were we doing anyway? And again,
- 20:27Jorge was the source of a lot of those jokes. Yes, got so
- 20:33yeah, I don't. I don't know for me, I don't know if
- 20:34this just so much of a roast of this one. I just remember the
- 20:38brilliance behind it, just I mean, and I'm being serious, like I
- 20:44was literally laughing. I mean, gods, it's been so long since I
- 20:47had seen that video, but I was literally I was in my studio.
- 20:51I used to have a studio where I used to live all those years ago,
- 20:52and that's where I used to watch all my you know, YouTube videos
- 20:56and stuff, and I just remember, like, this is freaking brilliant job,
- 21:00guys. But yeah, the gauze in Stevie's mouth, the drool,
- 21:03the gauze, and it was all real. Yeah, it was real.
- 21:11But now that makes it even more funnier. But but yeah, like I
- 21:14said, not much of a roast, just kind of a you know,
- 21:17chef's kiss on that one. Guys. That was there's no roast, That's
- 21:21fine. Steve Roy do either of you have a roast? I think my
- 21:26only like gripe about this one is we didn't do more of them with this,
- 21:30like many issues as I've had with my mouth, Like I've been to
- 21:33the dentist every year, like there's always something they have to get repaired every
- 21:37year once a year, And I'm like, why didn't we continue to the
- 21:41saga like we should have? Why did the saga the Stevie after this saga
- 21:48the trilogy, somebody decided to quit YouTube. That's all right, you gotta
- 22:00laugh out of me, MEXI. So it's a point to you. Damn
- 22:04it. Well played, but well played. So Stevie, you don't really
- 22:08have a roast for this other than you wish we'd done it more past Augie
- 22:12real quick, Okay, you got a roast for Stevie after Dennis. Yeah,
- 22:18it's a shame that he was as funny as when he was high off
- 22:19a novacane. That's gonna be a point. That's a good roast. Good,
- 22:27that was good. See you got anything like? I like that one,
- 22:32but you can pass. It's all because of me, but works probably
- 22:34the best part about the whole thing, Like seriously, it's done very well
- 22:38okay in that case, Yeah, good job for he big up store.
- 22:44It's two points for Mexi, two points for Augie, one point for Stevie.
- 22:47Wh'll move on to our third video. It's our first, it's Stevie.
- 22:49It's Stevie. PlayStation does everything. And this I got about. This
- 22:56is a group video we decided to make on this the moment, like literally
- 23:00all five of us were chilling. It's like me Stevie fucking damn uh Nigel,
- 23:10I took a little out of control. I thought it was a chef's
- 23:17kiss at it was a little much. Uh yeah. It came about because
- 23:21you were fucking around and I think I put your PlayStation in my bed one
- 23:23day and I took a picture of it. Yeah yeah, and you tried
- 23:26to take a picture of it and make it look like you were having sex
- 23:30with it. I don't know why. I legitimately don't know why. I
- 23:33I don't remember ever seeing that picture. So if it was meant to be
- 23:37a joke on me, it didn't land because I never saw it. Never
- 23:42saw the picture. O my god. So I had no idea what you
- 23:45were talking about when you were talking about having sex, and everybody else oh
- 23:51I was. I took it. It just didn't show me. Why did
- 23:56I not make sense? So we made a video about you having sex with
- 24:00my PlayStation and it did not happen. That's the memory card slot, right,
- 24:11No, it's the USB the universal sex boner. When Stevie came up
- 24:15with that was his idea. That was that was the dumbest thing, like,
- 24:22out of anything USB, think of something USB, just anything anything at
- 24:29all. Yeah, it's hard to be universal sex, really, is it.
- 24:33Damn? It was? And I'm like, oh, we're going with
- 24:37this, okay, yeah, it was. It was. It was.
- 24:41It was a wild video. Yeah. Uh Dan, like you said mextic
- 24:48it when you were talking about time, Sometimes a friend crosses the line and
- 24:51you have to make a choice. I did that with Dan. He is
- 24:53no longer part of my life. Uh just just cut him out. But
- 24:57thankfully he's only in the video for like two lines, so we didn't have
- 25:00to deal with them a lot. But it ends with Nigel shoving his hand
- 25:04down his pants, which I was like, oh dear god, I wasn't
- 25:07expecting that nowhere. I'm like, okay, take it back on it.
- 25:12I would have expected it. Well, I think it speaks volumes about your
- 25:17character, Stevie, that nobody has an issue with you having sex with the
- 25:19PlayStation. Nobody's surprised at all. Oh, not surprised. Nobody is ever
- 25:23going to be surprised. I mean, I have a problem with this one
- 25:26thing, but surprised. Even back then, we were describing Stevie as omni
- 25:32sexual because he has sex with everything about the ms in this studio as we
- 25:37speak. But the number is rising every week, christ all right, almost
- 25:41daily. So roasts, let's move out of the roasts. Does anybody want
- 25:45to roast the video? I have like a porn video without us knowing?
- 25:52Eron and you did you and him have a powwell before this you didn't know
- 25:56about the thing, Okay, I'm just making sure. No, no,
- 25:57no, So I don't know. You're You're not good at this roasting thing.
- 26:06You can't, dude, I'm not. I can't you make fun of
- 26:07it. I should be able to make fun of I think Corey was in
- 26:10that video too, because I seem to recall there were five people including myself,
- 26:15and he was so yeah. I think it had I know, AGI
- 26:18wasn't there. No, no, but I'm never getting that PS three back,
- 26:25I'll buy you a new one. They're cheap. Uh Okay, any
- 26:30roasts at all or just moving on? I just wish like like there's no
- 26:34clever ability with my words? Wow, and now we know why there's no
- 26:42clever ability. Clever with my words? Yeah, Stevie roasts himself and gets
- 26:48one point. May any ideas take clever ability? I don't know. I
- 26:56think I think my roast is is more along the lines of like what steveen
- 27:00saying earlier. Definitely some missed opportunities. We you know, you could have
- 27:03created a video of the talk with either Stevie or the PlayStation. O my
- 27:11god, that's some point for MEXI a bitch, amazing son of a bitch
- 27:19was just hanging there. It is right there, hanging from a bitch.
- 27:23Quit you too, Yeah I did. I did. Still hate the place,
- 27:30all right? Do you have anything or do you want to pass?
- 27:33Yeah? This video is the reason why I prefer Xbox. You got half
- 27:41a laugh out of me. Yeah, you know Xbox is a little less
- 27:45fusable for you, isn't it. Speaking of Stevie and inappropriately having sex with
- 27:56things. The next video is it's Stevie something fishy oh my god, oh
- 28:02gosh. In my opinion, in my opinion, the best It's Stevie video
- 28:07we ever did. I don't remember the concept is there, but the concept,
- 28:12the concept is unbelievably stupid. It is, but we drove it into
- 28:17the ground, like we took it and we ran with it until there was
- 28:21literally nowhere else to go. That that video is like the setup and then
- 28:25like five minutes of punchlines, right like Stevie just delivering these lines one after
- 28:30another, most of which Tory was feeding to him, right, yeah,
- 28:33that and then me having to react and come up with like twenty different reactions
- 28:38like I ran out after three, like I was so hard, like the
- 28:45worst part. And this is what got me to be like oh, like
- 28:48I think we stopped for a while after this one. Yeah, yeah,
- 28:52we didn't do another at Stevie for a while for a while. And I
- 28:55think it's because at that point, I think I said like the same beginning
- 28:57line like three times in this skit. It drove me fucking insane, Like
- 29:03go back and listen to it. I can't, I cannot because in those
- 29:06cuts, I say like the beginning thing like three times, like two separate
- 29:10sets of them or something like hey man or whatever, like three times and
- 29:12I'm like, god, I sound like a freaking idiot. Oh it drives
- 29:18me nuts. Man. That sound like some weird kid who has never been
- 29:21in front of a camera before. And I've been in front of some cameras.
- 29:25I thought you did a great job. Ah And the stinger at the
- 29:29end where I full board tackle you, that was funny as you're a bouseless
- 29:33as you're about to do it like that scarred me almost because I'm like,
- 29:37at some point something's gonna pop out and hit me. There's no joke.
- 29:41He's like he's by the front door where our hallway closet is at the house.
- 29:45I'm not that big, and he's taking off his pants and I'm just
- 29:49like standing there like, oh god, he's gonna rush me into without his
- 29:53pants on? Is he is this four pla? He is he really trying
- 29:59to hit on me? And I started thinking of like, we don't know
- 30:00there's a camera in somebody else here. Wait a minute? Did he did
- 30:04he plan this? Like? It felt kind of good. I'm not a
- 30:10bottom, oh Stewie, all right, So yeah those are my comments.
- 30:18I'm going to give you a point thank you. Uh any thoughts or roasts.
- 30:26Yeah, so I would say that this was the video that cut that
- 30:30damn jingle stuck in my head in the yard I re my front yard because
- 30:40you guys, I don't know if it's just a Texas thing. You' all
- 30:42know what homeowners associations are. Yeah, so I had a pretty strict Ahoa
- 30:48where I was living at at the time, and like I had to cut
- 30:51my yard all the time. And I'm sitting there cutting my front yard after
- 30:55watching that video quite a few times, and I'm sitting there in my head
- 30:59like it's Steve. It's Steve. What a weird asshole? Yeah, I
- 31:03was. I was a minimalist music maker even back then, as found out
- 31:10in the last episode. Oh gosh, I don't know if we want to
- 31:14go on that tangent yet, but like I already had an idea in my
- 31:17head using just the three seconds you came up with, like yeah, something
- 31:22with that, but anyway, oh no, oh no, yeah, it's
- 31:30Dave. Yeah anyway, but no, that this was that this was the
- 31:38one I distinctly remember like being in my front yard and having that jingle seck
- 31:42in my head and that's where I came up with the chord progression for what
- 31:45is now Stevie's intro song actual fifteen years ago, the actual one that that
- 31:51that you know that that made whatever? Yeah, but that it was that
- 31:56video. But yeah, damn it that jingle that stuck in my head.
- 32:00But I mean, you liked it enough to watch it multiple times, and
- 32:04that's what for sure. Yeah, I think the jingle is what got people,
- 32:07because once you got in your head, it's like full Now. Fuck,
- 32:08I'm gonna think about him as we'll watch the next one. Look at
- 32:12this fool watching this ship. It wasn't exactly a roast, but he did
- 32:15maybe laugh MIXI So I'm giving you a point. Uh, and Doggie,
- 32:19do you have a roast for this video? So at first I was thinking
- 32:22I don't remember this video, but after Steve's description, I'm starting to realize,
- 32:27No, my brain made me forget this video from YouTube. Yeah,
- 32:34and stev jerking off into fish tanks is not something you want to think about.
- 32:37No, Okay, fair enough, fair enough, I can't say that
- 32:40I blame you, and I award you one point. Let's move on to
- 32:44our last video. And our last video is kind of a trick because I
- 32:46said, I picked the Save Files, the Text Murphy Trilogy, the three
- 32:52the three videos under a Killing Moon, and text movie Overseer. That we
- 32:58that we kind of made an to a sort of a mini movie. That
- 33:02was that was an actual like production, like we actually it was did effort.
- 33:07We we props, props, we had guns, we had we had
- 33:13we had a shootout, we had an actual we had an actual fight in
- 33:16a church. Yeah, an actual church, an actual church, which was
- 33:21nuts. Let us get away with this because they just let us use the
- 33:24space. They were like, it's cool because no one else was. Yeah,
- 33:29they just didn't care. It was it was. It was awesome to
- 33:30be able to do that. That's where I held stage combat classes for God
- 33:35secause they let us do it there in the basement. Yeah. So if
- 33:38that was a wild ride, we came up with a lot of fun stuff.
- 33:42We had a great basement shootout with TV and Reluctant Butter. Reluctant Butter
- 33:49was so much fun in his role as Microsoft could have been anybody. Yeah,
- 33:58it was. It was just so like, uh, Steve, you
- 34:00got a roast, Yeah, I got one. Man. Like the budget
- 34:05was for this one actually had a little bit of a budget and stuff until
- 34:08you look at Butter's clothing and it looks like it's too big form time.
- 34:15Others don't look so like big. Yeah, that's a point for you.
- 34:22Were you wearing your snakeskin suit or was it later my shark skin your sharkskin
- 34:25suit. That's what it was. That was wild. It was very shy.
- 34:30Yeah, that was why we had to be careful with your fighting because
- 34:34you didn't want to fall on the floor and smudget and get it there be
- 34:37on the other hand of my gall to tumble you get on the floor,
- 34:42you got it smack. Anyway, Yeah, it was. It was a
- 34:46lot of fun to make. I'm just trying to think anything else. Any
- 34:51other roasts Mexico? Was this the one? I just want to make sure.
- 34:54Was this the one with like the fight scene with the punches thrown?
- 34:58I mean, yes, we did a couple with fight scenes. We did
- 35:01the Rise of Nonsense Hero. That was one of our first videos way back
- 35:06in the day. That was very sad. I haven't seen I haven't seen
- 35:10punches missed that far away in a film since that nineteen seventy nine kung fu
- 35:14movie. I watched Oh Dare You? Oh dare you. I'm giving you
- 35:22the point because I would be laughing if I wasn't so offended. So you
- 35:27you have to be talking about rise of Nonsense hero there, because there were
- 35:30there were some punches in that that clearly missed. Was there? I remember
- 35:35the fight scene like in a basement or something. Yeah, we didn't miss
- 35:37any punches there all right there, there there was one that wasn't great,
- 35:43I'll be honest, but but it's all good. You were in the points,
- 35:50sir, you earned it. Just don't talk to me, kidding O,
- 35:54kidding, Augie, do you have one? You're the only one left
- 35:59to roast this one, do you know? Genuinely, I don't. It
- 36:02was one of the more fun videos we've ever recorded. Yeah, and not
- 36:07just because we all got the roles in it, but just because it was
- 36:09fun because there was a story being told over a course of three videos.
- 36:14It was great. Yeah, it was wild and even behind the scenes,
- 36:16like we got Karen involved from the Fine Monkey and Jorge was the primary like
- 36:22sematographer. He was a camera guy for the whole thing, even the fight
- 36:24scene. He did a great job despite never having recorded a fight scene before.
- 36:29I thought he did great and he uh, but he he only appears
- 36:32in the actual video like once he has one line as the cops. Yeah,
- 36:37Eric Randolph, not this guy again. If I had to be a
- 36:44critique, it was probably my choice of shoes, your choice of shoes,
- 36:47well, because I was like when I ran up at the stairs that scene
- 36:51you just I'm wearing a suit and it's just a squeaky sneakers as I'm running
- 36:54up the stairs. That's pretty good. But with no road, there's no
- 37:00point. So at the end of our first game, Stevie and Augie have
- 37:05four points each, but Mexi has big five points. Number one fan baby,
- 37:09number one, number one fan, so he's in the lead going into
- 37:14game two, which is coming up right after this. Hey, this is

- 41:27fu nuggets? Yo? There is probably a voice from the past that you
- 41:30haven't heard in us super long long time. We here tell you, man
- 41:34Todd, get on here and say what's up and say that I finally made
- 41:39the track and I'm now in the East coast. Person. Oh wow,
- 41:44I am actually driving right now to my new home in Pennsylvania, so oh
- 41:50my goodness, goodness, guys now permanently, so that's kind of fun.
- 41:54Anyway. Wow, sorry, I've been around a lot. Well, no,
- 42:00obviously, Plus I kind of got put on furlough since another show hasn't
- 42:06been back for a while, so I haven't had a job anything, which
- 42:12I'm sure now that I said that and it gave it away. But glad
- 42:15to see you guys are all still doing good and kicking ass. Me and
- 42:22the wife now will be out in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. That's pretty much We're
- 42:24We're moving nice and yeah, so we're gonna be in the area a lot
- 42:28more now and then hopefully we can hook up and finally do those ghosts investigations.
- 42:32Yeah, dude, that we're gonna start as making our company and we
- 42:37already got our website running with pictures, so yeah, dude, good stuff
- 42:44is gonna start happening now that we left California. That over price piece of
- 42:46stay. Should always talk to you guys. With that being said, this
- 42:52is Cali man Todd, dude, this is so good to hear you men
- 43:00right like it was just I was just thinking the other day. I'm like,
- 43:02we haven't heard from him. I hope he's okay, you know,
- 43:06And to hear that you're not only okay, but you're practically right around the
- 43:09corner. Now we got more reason than ever to go visit Pennsylvania. Oh
- 43:14darn, I guess I gotta go to Pennsylvania again. Like Caroline and her
- 43:17fiance air down there. Telliman Todd and his lady are down there, and
- 43:22there's a bunch of people nearby in New Jersey. So like, well,
- 43:28I mean a lot easier than flying. Yeah, it is, it is.
- 43:31I'm just saying, maybe maybe now we have to make it a yearly
- 43:35event, or maybe a twice yearly event, if that might be pushing it.
- 43:38Once for sure, we could do one road tripping year. I feel
- 43:44like at the expensive thing, No, it's when you get the flywer and
- 43:47then get hotels. We can get Airbnb and drive somewhere in the car.
- 43:51We're good. It's it's the staying somewhere. It's the expensive part from maybe
- 43:57but we have the hookup down in Pennsylvania. True, you know, and
- 44:00maybe maybe even Tellingmantot could put us up. Maybe they got an ext room
- 44:02or something, or a garage or a garage or a tent. He'll climb
- 44:10up in a tree and sleep on a branch. He'll have a haunted house
- 44:14for us to sleep. Well, there we go. Yeah we can.
- 44:16We can deliberately do a haunted house challenge. Or we have to stay overnight
- 44:21and save us the price of a hotel room I would have to get by
- 44:24the morning. You get to stay. That would be kind of cool.
- 44:29As long as it's like climate controlled at as long as this climate control in
- 44:34a sleeping bag on an air mattress, that's fair. It's okay. There'll
- 44:37be a ghost that chill you, uh telling. I have a feeling and
- 44:44we might be hanging out in the near future. So look forward to that.
- 44:49Glad to hear you're okay and that you're on our neck of the woods,
- 44:52which is even more exciting. So yeah, so thanks man, and
- 44:55much appreciate. It's super awesome to hear from you, and that's gonna be
- 45:00it for our voicemails and comments. Right, there's nothing else. All right,
- 45:02We're good. So now let's cut back to the show. Hey man,
- 45:15welcome back. It's time for game two. Game two is going to
- 45:19be Pitch Me Baby one more time. Usually I give our contestants control of
- 45:25a popular media icon or personality or something to play with, but in this
- 45:30case, we're going with the Pancil Shorts video channel. So not massively popular,
- 45:37but it did have its fans evidence one, so so long story short
- 45:45before before anybody gets any ideas, I'm just gonna put this out right now.
- 45:50I'm not going to resurrect Pancil Shorts, but if I did, what
- 45:59video do you wish we had made? And I'm just gonna put it out
- 46:01there right now. A version of the talk with Stevie and a PS three
- 46:06is not going to be a viable answer because somebody already came up with that.
- 46:10So I need an original video idea. I want each player to pitch
- 46:15me either a Pancil short sketch or a save files video about a particular video
- 46:22game series or system, or and it's Stevie episode in any case, you
- 46:27have to describe the video to me and what happens in it. Instead of
- 46:30choosing the best like usual, I'm going to award each pitch a score from
- 46:35one to five points, and I'll do the scoring after you've all gone.
- 46:38So, Stevie and Augie, you're currently tied for last. I'm gonna give
- 46:43Augie the choice. Aggie, do you want to go? Do you want
- 46:45to go first, second, or third? I'll go third, okay.
- 46:47Stevie, do you want to go first or second? I'll go first and
- 46:51get this over with. Okay, then MAXI you're gonna go second. Stevie,
- 46:54you're going up first. Pitch me a pantciless shorts video sandwich, enjoy
- 47:07a sprinkler? So do you have a video? Was I'm gonna have to
- 47:15bring I'm gonna have to bring my wife in here. Oh my god,
- 47:23I don't. I don't want to embarrass her. I don't want to embarrass
- 47:25her. Stevie, do you have a video pitch for me? I do?
- 47:30Eric. I hinted at this earlier a little bit, and it would
- 47:35be almost a saga again, kind of like you did with the text Murphy
- 47:39Run or the save files or and it's Stevie, except we're combining some ship.
- 47:45Okay, so we're gonna we're gonna make a saga version. We're gonna
- 47:51pick a new topic, but we're gonna have elements of some other videos in
- 47:53there. So the what was the name of the video, the Muffin one,
- 48:00the nonsense heroo, So we can even have it just be like the
- 48:05main character is the nonsense hero And it starts with the ending scene of the
- 48:10very first video. Hora is talking about the dead guy in his room and
- 48:15he's like oh, and he walks off the scene and then here, oh,
- 48:19Muffin, and then you get angry or whatever fades right then it actually
- 48:24like lightens back up and you see the hand of Stevie moving there in the
- 48:30bottom, and that's what creates the It's Stevie's world. So are you trying
- 48:37to marvel cinematic universe? The best thing is we can get everybody we know
- 48:46in these things, so that way you can like it. I'll branch out,
- 48:51but still I'll still be connected and bring that nostalgia. But with all
- 48:54of our new friends we have now, so I say we have the nonsense
- 48:59here saga, maybe two seasons worth, we can do two different themes and
- 49:04then see where it goes from there, but we bring other people in for
- 49:07it. Man, it'd be fun. It could start with the muffin and
- 49:10it could be the first The first episode could be the muffining. And it's
- 49:15like, because I come back this time, I come back this time.
- 49:19And then instead of just one muffin, like you're walking out of a bakery
- 49:22with like a dozen of them and it's like, oh no, bitch,
- 49:24it's on. And then like we start fighting right in the street, like
- 49:29all the freaking chicken and like family guy Peter Griffin like and just over these
- 49:34muffins, and like they hit the ground and it's like a cinematic thing,
- 49:36like we're in the like the background, but like the actual foreground. You
- 49:39see the donut box falling, but like the top opens, the donuts bounce,
- 49:44nothing actually falls out though, and like this whole time, it's like
- 49:47it's kind of focused on us, but mostly on the donuts. Like what's
- 49:50gonna happen to the donuts? Man? We don't want to lose or not
- 49:52donuts. Damn it, muffins so bad right now. But I've had muffins.
- 50:00But yeah, dude, like, it's all about the muffins and ship
- 50:01for that episode. But I think the rise of nonsense hero started it.
- 50:06We got to continue the man, give the people what they want, bring
- 50:08back the Pants of Shorts. Everybody should write erin all right, I'm a
- 50:15docum address again. I'm gonna do everybody suggests people reach out to me about
- 50:24starting Pants of Shorts. Uh so you're starting at minus one. Not a
- 50:28great okay. Uh he's going last. So Mexi, it's your turn.
- 50:35What what video would you like to pitch? I mean, this probably isn't
- 50:38gonna surprise anybody, but definitely the save files, you know which stay tuned
- 50:44for round three because I have a surprise for you guys, but definitely the
- 50:47definitely the save files. And I might pander a little bit here, but
- 50:52uh, you know the one thing I loved, I mean that was the
- 50:55first video before the It's Stevie's before the actual shorts is like that. The
- 51:00reason I became a fan was watching the save files, and there even to
- 51:06this day, there was such a niche about it, if you will,
- 51:10about what's your favorite memory. It's not a review of the game necessarily,
- 51:15I mean it is but but what was that one thing you remember about that
- 51:19game? Like that? To me, that is still a concept that today
- 51:23done. You know, you could start this back up again, and I
- 51:27think you would gain an audience because I still don't see people doing that.
- 51:30You know, most of it is review A lot of its hate reviews.
- 51:32This game sucks, but you were taking the complete opposite a pro. So
- 51:36that being said, I know you were doing a lot of like retro style
- 51:39gamings, but I'd like to see what you would do with new retro for
- 51:45example, a mass Effect trilogy. If you would do a save files from
- 51:50the three mass Effect games and be able to say, what's your favorite memory
- 51:54from mass Effect one? Because I know you have a maren, I know
- 51:58you do. What sticks out about Masspect one? What sticks out about Mass
- 52:01Effect two? What sticks out about Mass Effect three? Maybe it was that
- 52:04confusing ending to it, you know whatever, but that would be My pitch
- 52:08is to resurrect the safeile, specifically with the mass Effect trilogy. Well as
- 52:14far as Mass Effect one, I can tell you right now my favorite membory
- 52:16maybe not favorite. The memory that sticks out the most about Mass Effect one
- 52:21is driving that vehicle directly up the side of a mountain over and over and
- 52:24over again. It was so aggravating, like constantly to like to get to
- 52:30the next place you need to go, like having to climb this giant mountain.
- 52:34Your car is barely moving. You're like, God, damn it,
- 52:37just get over the thing. Um. It drove me nuts, But I
- 52:42genuinely love that game. It was a lot of fun. Mass Effect two
- 52:45and three similarly, like, I could totally do it, but I mean,
- 52:51I hate you too. I hate it so much. I hate it
- 52:53with a steaming, fiery passion of a thousand suns. Patre Yeah, you
- 53:00know, I guess just just do Patreon and just ignore my YouTube nonsense because
- 53:07honestly it's all nonsense. But also fighting with copyright sucks, man. Yeah,
- 53:12that sucks so hard. I don't have that issue, but I upload
- 53:16the YouTube. It's genuinely my own stuff unless I get a strike against myself.
- 53:21Yeah, well I've heard of that happening. I've heard of that.
- 53:23Yeah. Yeah, I really like your pitch, really really genuinely heartfelt.
- 53:30Thank you for that. You're welcome. Uh and finally it's Augie, Augie,
- 53:37what would you like to pitch that? Damn? I actually had a
- 53:39similar idea, except instead of like a more uh more recent games, it
- 53:46was still going to be like some of the old school ones like Wing Commander,
- 53:51like if we did a save files like Alla, like how we did
- 53:53Text Murphy with just like a narrated like we're following along the game, but
- 53:59we also have our own little like skit ship going on in the background.
- 54:04Like one of my favorite parts was you was what was it? Was it
- 54:07a something? Shark sewer sewer shark? Yeah, yeah, that was a
- 54:15great episode, like I wish we had and vowel. Yeah, that's the
- 54:21only episode VAL's ever been in, but it was so much fun. Stevie
- 54:24she she played Stevie for the episode because you weren't there. You couldn't you
- 54:29couldn't make it that day for whatever reason. But Val was there, so
- 54:31we're like, you'll just be Stevie. Fuck it, Uh, it's so
- 54:38out of nowhere. Stevie saw the video for the first time, I think
- 54:42with us, like, what the fuck are you replacing me? I was
- 54:50lost. I was so funny, but yeah, I like, I liked
- 54:52all the videos where you did the concurrent concurrence correct word uh storyline along with
- 54:59the video like the game story. I don't know. Oh yeah, like
- 55:02they were related, but they were also just different enough where it didn't seem
- 55:07like you were just copying, like yeah, yeah, ye oh my god.
- 55:12The Seventh Guests and the Eleventh Hour videos were among the most fun to
- 55:15make, The first one with the with just reluctant Butter being a ghost about
- 55:21my house doing silly things like for no good reason. At one point,
- 55:25he's playing Solitaire, Like what the fuck was I doing? Like, like,
- 55:30it's so bizarre? Is that the seventh gust one where you took a
- 55:35dig at Juggalos I remember that, I don't. I don't remember. If
- 55:38I did, it might have was like it's like Aaron doesn't know I'm a
- 55:43hardcore juggle It might have been I don't know. I don't know, but
- 55:45you know it was not meant in Like just look for the video that I
- 55:51never I'm very the one thing I'm pleased about because some of some of those
- 55:55videos haven't aged well. Like, in fact, there was one video that
- 55:58I took down because I made a tran joke and I'm not I wasn't proud
- 56:00of that I shouldn't have done in the first place, but Like, what
- 56:07I'm most proud of about those videos is that, like there was never a
- 56:12joke made in or out of malice, Like it was never anything about our
- 56:16humor that was hurtful, you know what I mean. No, it's all
- 56:20about our personality. It was all about it was all about nonsense. It
- 56:24was all about being absurd and having fun. Like that's where it all came
- 56:29from. So genuinely proud of that. So your pitch would be to do
- 56:34yeah, more of a storyline, more storyline, episode episodes. Yeah,
- 56:39okay, interesting. I like that pitch too. Okay, so I'm just
- 56:45gonna come right out the gate Stevie's pitch. I like the least I did
- 56:53enjoy Nonsense Hero, but I was like, it would be impossible to take
- 56:58that character anywhere else, Like he is he is a he has a sketch
- 57:01idea and literally nothing else. His whole thing is nonsense. Everything he says
- 57:06in the in the in the video is nonsense. He attacks you for eating
- 57:10a muffin, Like nothing he does makes sense. So it's impossible to craft
- 57:16a story around this character who's basically like an even more cracked out Deadpool.
- 57:22Like just he's he just does shit for no reason. Literally, it's it's
- 57:29It would have been impossible to make that any longer and have it make any
- 57:31sort of I mean, it might be funny, but it would just continue
- 57:36to escalate. Do you think your body could handle that? I mean,
- 57:38yeah, it would be really hard to escalate that too, given given the
- 57:43fight that we had where we want to up snapping your neck at the end
- 57:46of that video. It's a point just figures for anyone listening. A fun
- 57:53way to make a neck breaking sound effect is to have an empty water bottle
- 57:58and just twist it. That's what we did somebody. I think Korge did
- 58:01it behind the scenes while we were doing the actual like motion. It's just
- 58:07a little behind the scenes did bit. So I'm going to give three points
- 58:09to Stevie one two, three for your pitch. Augiet pitch came next.
- 58:15I do genuinely like the idea. Those were some of my favorite to make,
- 58:19guaranteed, because a lot of the humor came out of let's do the
- 58:22same thing but bizarre, but bizarre and weird. And I also liked the
- 58:30ones where we took it seriously but still had fun with it, Like the
- 58:31Eleventh Hour is a good one. We actually trooped over to our friend Courtney's
- 58:36house, did the whole thing in her house because she had the closest thing
- 58:39I knew of to our friends having like an actual like gothic architecture. Hers
- 58:44wasn't really Gothic. It was just an old house, but it was still
- 58:47kind of the right atmosphere. So we shot everything there, including Justin's bits,
- 58:53and I actually got like a troop of actors from our improv crew to
- 59:00do the whole thing, and even one friend who came drove an hour to
- 59:05be in this silly little video and it's one of the last things he did
- 59:08before he passed away. Is like, like, that's an incredible memory.
- 59:15Just thankful for him willing to do that for a silly video on the internet
- 59:21and to help out a friend, and it was I just will never forget
- 59:23that. So I do appreciate your pitch. I'm gonna give you four points,
- 59:28but I mean the winner by a country mile is Mexi, because absolutely,
- 59:36I mean that is like the heart of the save files is there my
- 59:42memories. The reason I did the save files in the first place is because
- 59:45there is a history of dementia in my family. And I have a very
- 59:49deep seated fear of losing my memories and forgetting the people I love and the
- 59:53things that I love and why that I love them, you know. So
- 59:58I figured one way I ca deal with that would be to actually have records,
- 1:00:02you know, Like it's one of the reasons we podcast, It's one
- 1:00:06of the reasons why the Same Files even exists, is because I have a
- 1:00:08record. Now, I loved this, and this is why, you know,
- 1:00:13and and and sometimes it's I hated this, and this is why on
- 1:00:17the Same files. Usually when I'm going for something funny, like a Fork
- 1:00:21in the Tail is probably my favorite video I've ever did of something that I
- 1:00:23absolutely hated, because I make it very very clear how much I hated that
- 1:00:29game. And Angel Devoids another good one, like I had a lot of
- 1:00:32fun. But but the ones that I the ones that I go back to,
- 1:00:36and the ones that I rewatch over and over over again, are the
- 1:00:38ones that gave me genuine joy, like the ones where I have something that
- 1:00:44I absolutely love about, like the Headhunter video which was later on later on,
- 1:00:49I did a doubleheader. Didn't do a story behind it probably should have.
- 1:00:52It would have been cool to do a story behind it like that one.
- 1:00:54I tried to do a fear effect video because I absolutely love those games,
- 1:00:59but the script was not good, and my actors, who I asked
- 1:01:02helped me out, made it very clear that they did not like the script.
- 1:01:06And I'm like, oh, okay, well, I guess I'll just
- 1:01:09quit YouTube. It just went out at the window. I'll be honest,
- 1:01:15like I did genuinely think about getting back into it when Danane Ropa entered my
- 1:01:20life because that game is such a strong It resonated with me so hard,
- 1:01:23and there are things about those games that I will never forget that make me
- 1:01:29want to do another, say files video just for them, you know.
- 1:01:32And there's even an entire script and it was even shot, like I shot
- 1:01:37the whole thing, and I just never edit it and never put it up,
- 1:01:39of course, But that's why I wanted to make it, because I
- 1:01:44wanted to hold onto those memories. So Mexi tapped into that perfectly and gets
- 1:01:47the full five points. So as it stands, at the end of game
- 1:01:55two, Mexi has ten points, Stevie has seven, and Augie has eight,
- 1:02:02so damn yep. Well, so everybody's still relatively close. There are
- 1:02:09you can get up to ten points in our final game we're gonna play.
- 1:02:14We're gonna play game three, which could tip the balance. We'll find out
- 1:02:16right after this. Hey you there, We've got a question for you.
- 1:02:30Are you tired of clickbait stories and the loudest voices driving discussions and culture and
- 1:02:35entertainment. If so, I'm Dylan, I'm Kendall, and I'm Corey,
- 1:02:39and we host the podcast From the Middle. We're middle class guys living in

- 1:03:07We really value a relaxed and conversational podcast, one that we hope is so
- 1:03:14fun and laid back you'll forget you're not actually hanging out with us. So
- 1:03:17search at from the Midpod just like it sounds, or check us out everywhere
- 1:03:22you can find podcasts. Hey man, welcome back. It's fun to be.
- 1:03:39I don't know what the hell Stevian Auger You're doing, but members of
- 1:03:45our Patreon who can watch the video version might have noticed a slight change.
- 1:03:50MEXI is wearing his the Save Files T shirt. It's so cool And what
- 1:03:57I love is that it literally highlights as must It's literally like, yeah,
- 1:04:03this shirt makes me look good. Yeah, I should wear it more often.
- 1:04:09Yeah, but I don't want to. It's like I had to pull
- 1:04:12this out of my closet. I mean, it's like a piece of memorabilia,
- 1:04:15right, yeah, novel. Well, I mean, you know,
- 1:04:20keep it up. I might send you one anyway. It's time for game
- 1:04:26three. Let's find out who who's gonna be. Game three is gonna be
- 1:04:29one we just recently played in the last episode, but a slightly different name.
- 1:04:33It's called Pantsla Shorts, Loading Ready Run or something else. Oh god,
- 1:04:38so Pants of Shorts was heavily inspired by early Internet sketch comedy troupe Loading
- 1:04:44Ready Run. But can our players tell the difference? I've got ten lines,
- 1:04:48and all our players have to do is tell me. Is that line
- 1:04:51from a Pants of Shorts video, a Loading Ready Run video, or a
- 1:04:56third option. It's usually a movie. The The third option will be different
- 1:05:00for every line, and after all ten lines, the player with the most
- 1:05:03points gained over the course of this entire episode will be declared the winner.
- 1:05:08As it stands, Mexi's on top of ten, Augie has eight, he's
- 1:05:12two behind, and Stevie has seven he's three behind. But this game is
- 1:05:15worth up to ten points if you can get every single one right, so
- 1:05:18anybody could still win. And we're going to start in the order suggested by
- 1:05:25the two of you. So Stevie, you are now in last place.
- 1:05:28So I'll give you the choice. Do you want to go first, second,
- 1:05:30or third? On this go round? On this I'll go third,
- 1:05:34You'll go third. Augie, you get the next choice. Would you like
- 1:05:38to go first or second? I'll go second, You'll go second. So
- 1:05:41the order is going to be Mexi, Augi, Stevie, and then back
- 1:05:44to the front again. So Mexi, you're going to go first. And
- 1:05:47here is the quote. Sadly, I did not have enough time to get
- 1:05:53eight imitation of some kinds, which would have been a lot of fun to
- 1:05:57keep that trend going. But I'm just going to read the line flat so
- 1:06:00the line is, so I'm another person, right, and then when you
- 1:06:04have two people then it's really interesting? Is that line from pancil shorts Loading
- 1:06:12Ready Run or Being John Malkovich from nineteen ninety nine and MAXI, you're gonna
- 1:06:17go first, and I'm just gonna tell you be careful about what you reveal
- 1:06:20when you go first. You might influence the players who play after you.
- 1:06:26Oh, influences please? Yeah? Okay? And you repeat the quote one
- 1:06:30more time please, So I'm another person, right, and then when you
- 1:06:34have two people, then it's really interesting. Hmmm. I'm gonna say option
- 1:06:46three being John Malcovich. Do you think it's from Being John Malkovich? Okay?
- 1:06:51And then we go to Augie. I think it's option two. You
- 1:06:57think it's Loading Ready Run? Yeah, okay? And Stevie, what do
- 1:07:00you think I think I might have said that? So I think you think
- 1:07:04it's a pants of short quote. So everybody picked something different, which I
- 1:07:09means somebody is definitely getting a point, and that person is Augie because it
- 1:07:13is from it is from Loading Ready Run. This line is from their first
- 1:07:18ever sketch video called Quantum Documentary, which is they made a documentary about the
- 1:07:25documentary they're making. It's literally a documentary about itself, and it is one
- 1:07:30of the one of the greatest sketch ideas I've ever conceived of. I was
- 1:07:34so impressed with that, and it's a it's really funny. So one point
- 1:07:41to Augie. He's catching up. But that's okay, there's nine more of
- 1:07:44these. Here's your next line. Oh, I'm so hungry for some Cadbury
- 1:07:49cream eggs. Is this a pants to shorts line, a loading ready run
- 1:07:55line? Or is it from Paddington to From twenty seventeen, and this time
- 1:08:00we start with Augie. I think it's from Paddington too. You think it's
- 1:08:03from Paddington to Stevie? What do you think? I want to go?
- 1:08:08Pants with shorts? Okay? And Mexi, Mexi, what do you think
- 1:08:13that line is from? Do you want me to repeat it? No,
- 1:08:16Just to kind of keep it interesting, I'll pick the third option, loading
- 1:08:20ready run? Oh interesting? Okay, So Augie went with Paddington to Stevie
- 1:08:26thinks it's pants of shorts and Mexi said loading ready run. So again,
- 1:08:29somebody's definitely getting a point, and this time it's Stevie. It is from
- 1:08:32pants the Shorts. It's from the Rise of the Nonsense Hero. It is
- 1:08:38the first thing the nonsense hero says after the fight starts. Every now and
- 1:08:42then they take a break and he says something bizarre, And that's the first
- 1:08:45bizarre thing he says. I'm like, I know that line. You did
- 1:08:49know that line? He whispered in the back of my ears. Well,
- 1:08:53so Stevie has a point. Stevie has eight points, Aggie has nine,
- 1:08:58Mexi is still on ten. Let's go on to our next line. I
- 1:09:01don't got a rap. I just stroke my beard and say nothing on the
- 1:09:05track? Is that line from Pantsless Shorts, Loading Ready Run? Or Crazy
- 1:09:13Rich Asians from twenty eighteen? Oh it's me. It starts with you this
- 1:09:18time, Stevie. I'm going with Crazy Rich Asians. Okay, you think
- 1:09:23it's from the movie Crazy Rich Asians. I haven't seen it, but I
- 1:09:25think it's from the movie. Okay, Mexi, what do you say?
- 1:09:31I will say the same you also say Crazy Rich Asians? Okay, Aggie,
- 1:09:38I think this is a pantsless You think this is from pantil Shorts.
- 1:09:41Yea interesting? Okay, So Stevie and Mexi say, crazy rich Asians,
- 1:09:45and Augie says, pants of shorts. It's actually from Loading Ready Runs.
- 1:09:48Sorry, guys, this is from the epic rap this is why I'm Paul,
- 1:09:56which goes, this is why I'm Paul. This is why I'm Paul.
- 1:09:59This is why, this is why, this is why I'm Paul.
- 1:10:01I'm Paul because I am. You ain't because you not. This is why,
- 1:10:04this is why, this is why Paul. Amazing. It's so silly.
- 1:10:14I absolutely love it, and I kind of wish we'd ever done like
- 1:10:15a wrap thing, but we never did. No, realistically, I thought
- 1:10:20it was a stampf line has just said this, Yeah, yeah, absolutely,
- 1:10:28I agree. So no points to anyone. Let's move on to line
- 1:10:30number four. Whatever you call it, flogging the carrot, polishing, the
- 1:10:35acoustic choking, the chicken, clearing the snorkel. But I didn't come back
- 1:10:40here to rehash good times. Is this line from Pancil shorts, Loading Ready
- 1:10:45Run or the movie Brain Donors from nineteen ninety two, And this time we're
- 1:10:53back to this tart so it's Mexic going first, that's the shorts. You
- 1:10:57think this is a Pancil Shorts line? All right, Augie. Let's say
- 1:11:00you I think it's the third option. You think it's Brain Donors and Stevie,
- 1:11:05and of course you would love Brain Donor's line in here, knowing I
- 1:11:09still haven't seen the whole movie, but I'm gonna go with Brain Donors.
- 1:11:14Okay, wisely done, it is Brain Donors. Yes, that is one
- 1:11:20of my and Jorge's favorite movies ever. No, you know we did watch
- 1:11:25it Ora's Place never mind. Yeah, but it was so longer you probably
- 1:11:28don't remember half of it. Yeah. So, Brain Donors is basically an
- 1:11:31updated Marx Brothers movie. It's very it's a very Marx Brothers feeling movie.
- 1:11:35There's the one smart alecky super fast guy, there's the one ridiculous guy,
- 1:11:42and then there's the guy who's mostly silent but goofs up and physicality a lot.
- 1:11:45Uh. It's it's a great, very funny movie. Just don't go
- 1:11:48into it with any expectations of anything other than pure absurdity. It informed a
- 1:11:54lot of our humor, and I'll bet some some lines and some things from
- 1:11:58Brain Donors one up in our videos over the years. But uh, anyway,
- 1:12:00let's move on. So that's a point to Stevie and Augie, Augie
- 1:12:03and mex to your now tied, and Stevie's just one point behind. It's
- 1:12:06real close. It's real close close. Let's move on to line number five.
- 1:12:13I'm pretty sure someone's getting murdered on the second floor. Is this line
- 1:12:18from pantsle shorts from Loading Ready Run or the movie Fright Night from nineteen eighty
- 1:12:25five? And this time Augie will go first. Pretty sure we've heard this
- 1:12:30the house of also, like every other time we had, there's somebody's dying
- 1:12:34upstairs. No, they're just vomiting into the toilet. It's fine. But
- 1:12:39did it make it into a video? I don't think it did? Is
- 1:12:42the thing? I think it's Fright Night? You're going with Fright Night?
- 1:12:45Okay? Uh, Stevie, what do you think? I was probably the
- 1:12:50one upstairs, so I didn't hear this in anything. Stevie was the one
- 1:12:57getting murdered. Yeah, the Fright Night things seems like it's two on the
- 1:13:00nose. I'm gonna go with Loading Ready just seems like that at very cool.
- 1:13:05And finally, Mexi, what do you say? Yeah, I'll continue
- 1:13:11to keep it interesting. I'll take the third off and pants the shorts.
- 1:13:14He's going with pants the shorts. That's a wise choice. It is pants
- 1:13:16the shorts. Oh see, I've heard it so many times. Outside of
- 1:13:21the pants short. This is a line from the second ever Say Files episode,
- 1:13:26the one about Doctor Chaos. The title screen. The title screen comes
- 1:13:30up and it's dripping blood, and then a shadow of somebody walks past and
- 1:13:34like pulls a knife and then stabs it downwards. And I say, I'm
- 1:13:38pretty sure someone's getting murdered on the second floor. So yeah, that's that's
- 1:13:43from pants the shorts. It gives Mexia point he is pulling away. Let's
- 1:13:47move on to line number six. There's still plenty of time for you guys
- 1:13:50to catch up. Here's line number six. That's a lovely cod piece you're
- 1:13:55wearing. Is this line from pants to shorts? Loading Ready run? Or
- 1:14:00the movie The Adventures of Baron Munchausen from nineteen eighty eight, and this time
- 1:14:06we start with Stevie. That's messed up. That's a movie night movie,
- 1:14:13but it was a song ago I can't remember. That's a lovely cod piece
- 1:14:18you're wearing. Yep, Baron, Baron Bunch. Well, whatever the fuck
- 1:14:23that dude's name Lunchausen Baron. You're going with the Adventures of Baron Munchausen Baron
- 1:14:28Brunch bunch. Uh, Mexi, you're up, dex what do you say?
- 1:14:33Loading? Ready run? Okay, going loading ready run? And Augie,
- 1:14:38this sounds like something out of a Passel of Shorts. Okay, So
- 1:14:42once again everybody's picked something different, and this time the point goes to Augie,
- 1:14:45who ties it up again. Uh yeah, this is a Pansel Shorts
- 1:14:50line. This is from the It's Stevie where uh the It's Stevie tapping that
- 1:14:57uh, the episode where I Am trying to control a video game with the
- 1:15:00power of my mind and it's not quite working, and the PS three says,
- 1:15:05that's a lovely cod piece you're wearing. I did sound familiar that I
- 1:15:12knew. I heard it from somewhere. It's gotta be yeah, yeah,
- 1:15:15that was. That was a That is a perfect It's CEV episode of So
- 1:15:19Good Holy shit. All right, so Augie gets a point. It is
- 1:15:25eleven points with Augie eleven points, Mexi. Stevie's at nine. You can
- 1:15:28still catch up and win, Stevie. Here is line number seven. We've
- 1:15:33had a lot of fun here today. But do you know what's not fun?
- 1:15:36Shrieking explosive diarrhea. Is that line from Pantcil shorts, Loading Ready Run
- 1:15:45or not another teen movie from two thousand and one, And this time Mexi's
- 1:15:49going first, Not another teen movie. Okay, he says, not another
- 1:15:54teen movie, August, Yeah, Augie's next pancil shorts. August's pancil shorts.
- 1:16:00Stevie. No, we're splitting it three ways again. I'm going Loading
- 1:16:02Ready Run. He's going Loading Ready Run, and he's right to do so.
- 1:16:05It is a loading Ready Run line. This is from one of my
- 1:16:11favorite Loading Ready Run videos ever. It's called Morgan's Problem. It starts off
- 1:16:15with something very silly and nonsense. Well, they're playing wee bowling, but
- 1:16:18one player's using a rock band guitar to play. That's just nonsense. And
- 1:16:23then the one character suddenly gets very sick to his stomach, and it's like,
- 1:16:26oh, I ate like escargo tacos last night, and something's not right.
- 1:16:31I wash it down with spry ice. He goes to the bathroom,
- 1:16:34screams incredibly loud, and then there's an explosion, and then it cuts over
- 1:16:42to the hallway and the bathroom door is blown off and there's blood and shit
- 1:16:45all over the door. It just something, something about his scream and the
- 1:16:54explosion tickle me so fucking pink. Every time I watch that video, I
- 1:17:00just laughed myself sick so hard did it last night? I just I could
- 1:17:04not stop. So that is a point to Stevie. It is eleven points
- 1:17:09Augie, eleven points Mexi, and ten points Stevie. There is one point
- 1:17:14in it, all three and there are three quotes left. Here's quote number
- 1:17:17eight. Take that Mega man. You just keep coughing up that money,
- 1:17:23you little bastard. I hope you're watching Street Fighter because you're next, you
- 1:17:27little bitch. Is that line from pants to shorts Loading Ready Run or Grandma's
- 1:17:33Boy from two thousand and six? Oh fucker, And this time Augie's going
- 1:17:41first. I think it's Grandma's Boy. Okay, O, he's going with
- 1:17:45Grandma's Boy, Stevie. I'll remember them playing that all during that So I'm
- 1:17:48gonna go u It sounds like something you'd say, but I'm gonna go loading
- 1:17:57ready to run again? Okay, going loading ready run? And Mexi?
- 1:18:01Oh man? Why not pantsless short once again? You go for all three
- 1:18:11different options, and this time it pays off for MESI this is pants the
- 1:18:15shorts. I think I remember you saying this is the Mega Man series on
- 1:18:19ne e S. At one point, I'm like, this is what Capcom
- 1:18:24does to their their franchises. And I pick up a copy of Mega Man
- 1:18:27for any S and I just start punching it. Take that Mega Man.
- 1:18:30Keep coughing up that money, you a little bastard. And then I put
- 1:18:33it on the floor and starts stamping on it with my foot, and then
- 1:18:38Street Fighter two turbos just sitting over my shoulder, and I turn over to
- 1:18:42it. Hope you're watching Street Fighter because you're next to you, a little
- 1:18:44bitch. I do remember that that was genuinely one of my favorite bits I
- 1:18:51ever came up with because it was just so unhinged. Oh man, Okay,
- 1:18:58so Mexi's up to twelve twelve, Augie is still at eleven. Stevie's
- 1:19:01still at ten. So Stevie, you can tie it up cool fingers crossed
- 1:19:06back on the wood. So there's two lines left, and here's line number
- 1:19:11nine. If you all want to reach under your seats, you'll find there's
- 1:19:15nothing there is this a Pancil of Shorts line, a loading Ready run line?
- 1:19:21Or is it from Ready Player one from twenty eighteen, And this time
- 1:19:30we start with Stevie, Oh crap, it just sounds like something we would
- 1:19:36say in the podcast. I remember this being in Pancil of Shorts. So
- 1:19:43I'm gonna go loading ready run again. Okay, loading already run, says
- 1:19:47Stevie. MAXI, what do you say? Same? Loading ready run says
- 1:19:54the same thing, Loading ready Run, Augie, I think it's the other
- 1:19:56one Player one. You think it's Ready Player one, Yeah, you tied
- 1:20:00up the game. It is Ready Player one. I think I've seen that
- 1:20:03movie one. All right, so this is really really interesting, Stevie.
- 1:20:09You can't win at this point, you're out of it, but you can
- 1:20:12still play. Obviously, second Loggie and Mexi are tied. So it's gonna
- 1:20:15come down to this last quote. Oh dear, all right, ready,
- 1:20:18here's the final quote. Starting next week, the Upton Community Theater is putting
- 1:20:25on a performance of ass the Musical. Is this line from Pantsila Shorts,
- 1:20:30Loading Ready Run or Waiting for Guffman from nineteen ninety six. We are going
- 1:20:41to see one more time I can Mexi, we're starting with you. So
- 1:20:45here's the quote one more time. Starting next week, the Upton Community Theater
- 1:20:48is putting on a performance of ass the musical Loading Ready Run. Loading Ready
- 1:20:57Run says Mesi Oggi shorts, August says pants of shorts, and Stevie I'm
- 1:21:01gonna say pants and shorts as well, says pants of shorts as well.
- 1:21:05And the winner of this game is Mexi. It is Loading Ready Run,
- 1:21:13and with thirteen points to twelve to ten, Mexi has won the game.
- 1:21:19Yes, sir, yes, I genuinely did not know that last one that
- 1:21:25is from that is from a very famous stream of Loading Ready Run. They
- 1:21:30do a they do a charity stream every year called Desert Bus for Hope.
- 1:21:33That one, Yeah, it's one of my favorite charity events ever. They
- 1:21:36do it yearly, and one year they did they did it like a sketch
- 1:21:41comedy thing called corp Line where they pretended to be news anchors reading ridiculous stories
- 1:21:46and this was one of their stories. Uh, and they literally couldn't hold
- 1:21:50it together. So like them the other people in the background, like everybody's
- 1:21:57falling over laughing for like a good two minutes straight about this community theater production
- 1:22:02of Ask the Musical, featuring songs like Fart and Other Fart, and then
- 1:22:10the other person leans in and goes, it's pronounced I fucking died. I
- 1:22:20died. It was so goddamn funny. Oh man, there's something about like
- 1:22:26that Carol Burnette thing when when everybody breaks up like the Beavis and butt Heads
- 1:22:30sketch on Saturday Night Live. It's the same thing when everybody breaks up laughing
- 1:22:33and someone makes it even funnier. Uh. There was very much a case
- 1:22:38of that in Ask the Musical. But an uh, congratulations Maxie, Absolutely
- 1:22:45well done. Not surprised our number one super fan knows our stuff better than
- 1:22:49we do. I tried, I couldn't do it. You did sound confident
- 1:23:00it was something would do, and to be fair, I would consider it,
- 1:23:03but I was hoping you change your answer. Yeah. See, you
- 1:23:06gave me such a look. Waiting for Guffman is. It's a movie about
- 1:23:11a community theater troupe trying to put on a musical that they think Broadway big
- 1:23:15wigs are going to show up to, so they go a little bit above
- 1:23:17and beyond. It's a very very silly movie. But I just needed a
- 1:23:23movie about community theater. It's it's made by the same folks who did It's
- 1:23:28Christopher Guest, the same people who made the best in show. And what's
- 1:23:31the other one? You? Oh, A mighty wind is the other one?
- 1:23:34I was thinking mighty I love a mighty No, it's it's about folks
- 1:23:40singers even better. Yeah. Anyway, now that now that the games are
- 1:23:45done, I'm just glad we did not have to a come up with any
- 1:23:48adverbs have anything to do with the word Hilaire. So yeah, thanks you
- 1:24:03so much. I love you, No, sir, no, thank you
- 1:24:06so much for coming. Uh. And please remind our listeners where they can
- 1:24:11find Perseverance and Time. Yeah. Absolutely, anywhere you find your digital music.

- 1:25:45with a different I come up with a different gimmick for every other guest that
- 1:25:47comes on every time Caroline. Yeah, no, I really felt like I
- 1:25:53captured that essence we were trying to go for with that one. But anyway,

- 1:26:18for giving me the platform and the opportunity to kind of yeah, man,
- 1:26:21freedom, I appreciate it. Oh and before I forget, he did the
- 1:26:26soundtrack for the Feigned trailer when the novel before the novel came out. Hey,
- 1:26:30hell yeah, I need that too. He was, it was outstanding.
- 1:26:34Uh and it was, Yeah, it was, it was. I
- 1:26:38know it was a it was outside of your comfort zone for sure, but
- 1:26:43you know, for sure, I was trying to capture that. I don't
- 1:26:45know if you guys know who Bear mccrarry is. Have y'all heard of him?
- 1:26:47Familiar? He's a he's a musical composer. He's probably most famous.
- 1:26:53Well, he's done a lot recently, but he did the Battlestar Galactica,
- 1:26:56the the re imagine bat Star Galactica theme. Yeah, he's done. I
- 1:27:00want to say he did some Walking Dead stuff. But bear mccrairi if you
- 1:27:04guys want to look him up. He's an excellent composer. I was trying
- 1:27:08to capture some of his essence and when I was doing the Thane trailer,
- 1:27:13So I think you nailed it. It was it was just menacing and also
- 1:27:17kind of haunting at the same time. It was just I've always wanted to
- 1:27:21do that low orchestra hit that you that you hear like when you see a
- 1:27:26trailer at the mirror, that Yeah, that's what I was. Let's let's
- 1:27:30play with this. But you also kept it minimalist, which was nice because
- 1:27:32I was like, right, I got to make sure everybody can hear the
- 1:27:34voices over this. But you didn't put a lot of extra like it was.
- 1:27:39It wasn't cluttered. It was nice and tidy, which is a weird
- 1:27:41way to put it, but it genuinely it was perfect. It was just
- 1:27:45perfect. Thank you so much, sir, Thank you for that, for
- 1:27:47that and a million other things. But I look forward to the memories we're
- 1:27:50gonna make going forward. Yeah. Absolutely, As I used to say at
