I feel like it's a very normal.

[Amanda]

Thing for anybody, like, nine months.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

Which, like.

[Shane]

Which tracks like It's. It's one of those things where it's like, I don't plan on having any kids, but it doesn't bother me that, like, funds are going to help people who need time with their kids. I'm like, great. That's what we should be paying for.

[Amanda]

Baby bonding time.

[Shane]

But, like, baby bond.

[Amanda]

You imagine you're, like, gone for a year.

[Angela]

It's also so American to be like, you guys split it up. So he's going to have his maternity leave and pass the baton on, and then you have exactly.

[Shane]

Like, I can't. Like, can the baby work? How's their joints? Have they come in yet? Yeah, they can work.

[Amanda]

Yep.

[Angela]

[Shane]

Yep.

[Angela]

Because you'll be home, like, you know.

[Amanda]

I'm gonna be watching.

[Angela]

Are you gonna be, like, nursing at, like, 5am and I'm gonna get a text that's like, thumbnail was bad.

[Amanda]

Thumbnail was bad. But I love that bit that you guys kept going on about farts. Yeah.

[Shane]

I thought 30 minutes was a bit excessive, but, like, 25.

[Amanda]

Yeah. They should have cut the fart bit for that long. But honestly, you guys did well.

[Shane]

Can you believe they did? It was an hour before that.

[Amanda]

I'm totally gonna watch Hell, yeah. And maybe something else. I don't know. What? Do you like another show?

[Shane]

Oh.

[Angela]

Oh, yeah. No, you should watch other things besides smosh.

[Amanda]

I watch other things besides Smosh. I don't know.

[Shane]

I literally thought you were like, I'm going to watch smosh mouth and something else. I'm like, what other verb do you do to smosh mouth?

[Amanda]

No, Guardian, like, wants me to watch Breaking Bad for the first time, and I've never seen it, and I was like, I don't know if that's the right vibe.

[Angela]

I feel like you need, like, for my friends that have had babies before, I feel like you need tv because it's going to be when you're not sleeping and you're upset that you're not sleeping.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Angela]

So it's like you need things like Survivor. Great British Bake Off. That'll just be like, Great British Bake.

[Shane]

Off sounds like a good.

[Angela]

I love Great British. Just something that. That can get you a little bit of sleep when you can.

[Amanda]

You're so right.

[Shane]

Do you know Taskmaster?

[Amanda]

No.

[Shane]

It's a really funny show on the BBC, but it's all on YouTube and it's five comedians per season, and there's just, like, it's kind of like smosh pit or challenge pit where they'll have three challenges per episode. They like give them points and at the end you win prizes that like potluck style. The contestants brought in every week. It's like you, you know, the. The prize this week is something you'd be shocked to find in a closet. And then someone's like, oh, there's a picture of me mum. That was done quite poorly and it's quite scary. And then they can just win that.

[Amanda]

As in their closet.

[Shane]

Yeah, it's just like a joke where it's like something that you might mispronounce if talking to a friend or like, it's just a random wait.

[Amanda]

I love that.

[Shane]

It's so funny. It's all on YouTube.

[Amanda]

I kind of need a list of this. Also people in the comments. Will you guys put in mamas out there? Will you guys put in your shows?

[Angela]

Because. Put in your.

[Amanda]

That I'm going to need because I'm not going to be sleeping.

[Shane]

I think Breaking Bad might be too intense, but at the same time, I know you like true crime, so I'm like, I don't know. What relaxes you?

[Amanda]

I don't know. Murder while I'm nursing. We'll see.

[Shane]

Yeah, that's Breaking Bad.

[Angela]

People have done it.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

So while I'm doing that, you guys are going to be here. You guys are gonna be here with Shane.

[Shane]

Yes.

[Amanda]

Separately.

[Angela]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Amanda]

So here, here's the deal.

[Angela]

Just like, honestly, brass tacks, forget we're filming. Give it to us. Like, what do we need to do?

[Amanda]

So I would say, do I need.

[Angela]

To put my hair down? Put it up.

[Amanda]

No, he loves your hair.

[Shane]

I would also say hair down.

[Amanda]

You need to have. First of all, girls, you need to have a blowout. Makeup needs to be on point.

[Shane]

A blowout.

[Amanda]

Your hair needs to be down.

[Shane]

Is Smash paying for the blowout?

[Amanda]

You better be polite. Jeans cropped. He likes to see a little bit of ankle.

[Angela]

That's disgusting.

[Shane]

He's really into like Victorian era, like flues.

[Amanda]

No heels. No heels. If you wear heels, he literally will freak out. He won't look at you.

[Shane]

Got it.

[Amanda]

Could you imagine if this was Shane?

[Angela]

No.

[Amanda]

All you need to know is that Shane will randomly laugh at wild out of pocket things that you say as you guys. You guys know how to handle.

[Shane]

We both do that. Out of pocket. Wild things.

[Angela]

Yeah. I think here's my thing. Honestly. To be honestly, very real.

[Amanda]

Yeah, please.

[Angela]

I am bad with one on one hangouts. I. Unless I am like I really trust the person. What?

[Amanda]

I love hanging out with you one on one.

[Angela]

Yeah. And I trust you. But, like, there are.

[Shane]

Is that why you kept like shaking and checking your phone that time we got coffee?

[Angela]

No. No. Well, I just get. If I don't know them super well, I feel not enough.

[Amanda]

Uhhuh.

[Angela]

And I always feel like they're bored. This person's bored. And that's why I think, like, to.

[Shane]

Be like entertaining them.

[Angela]

Yeah. To be frank, I. I do feel a little bit like that without you there and it's just me and him, I'm going to be like, is this good enough? Is this what him and Amanda feel like? Is it like I. There will be a little bit of like, Right. Even if it's just like very lowkey, very relaxed.

[Amanda]

I get that. I. I mean, I. I definitely felt that in the beginning when we were doing Smoshmouth. It was like, is this enough?

[Angela]

Especially because you guys are well oiled machine at this point. Like you to like. You get it.

[Amanda]

You've been doing it for a year. Yeah.

[Shane]

I'll be honest. Like, I've never. I watch a lot of smosh content. Like it auto plays and I just like have it as background noise sometimes. I've never seen you in an environment where it's just you and someone else where I'm just like, oh, Angelo's not, You know. Yeah, you got it.

[Angela]

You just know for sure.

[Shane]

I think feel weird.

[Angela]

Yes. It's just like a thing about me. I'm just like, I like group and when it's one on one, I feel very seen.

[Shane]

I'm so the opposite. To be honest. If I'm ever like, I love one on one, like videos and I love just hangouts one on one. Like, if I invite someone over and they're like, oh, this person's also free. Can I bring them? It's like, yeah, and we'll still have a good time. But for me it feels like, oh, this is a total vibe shift. Like, I'm rather the one on one. I'm a little bit more reserved. Yeah. I love just getting to know someone one on one. Groups are a little harder for me. Unless it's the rare time when I'm like, oh, for whatever reason, I've locked into the vibe and like, now I'm the one joking and stuff. You know, I kind of get that. Yeah.

[Amanda]

I feel like mine's a mix. I feel like with it someone I trust. Great. But like, if it's a kind of a newer one on one because, like, it Will be newer one on one with you with Shane. Like, you haven't done it that often.

[Angela]

Yeah. Like, we usually, like, have a game we're playing if it's one.

[Amanda]

Yeah, exactly.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

And you've known Shane forever, so you've had plenty of one on ones.

[Shane]

Absolutely.

[Amanda]

And I feel like with new one on ones, I'm always like, how long do we keep the eye contact for?

[Shane]

You know when you're like, in the.

[Amanda]

Middle of, like, a story and then.

[Shane]

You'Re just like, yup.

[Amanda]

Like, when do I. When do I turn away? Just to give them a second.

[Angela]

Just to give them a second.

[Amanda]

Just to give them a moment.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

This is what I think about. I go, how long is too long for the eye contact? So should I tell my story up here?

[Shane]

I relate to that.

[Amanda]

Just to give them. And then when I look back, is it too much?

[Angela]

Yeah, you're so right. Because you're taking care of them. Because it's less to me. Like, I'm not uncomfortable looking at them, but I'm like, do they need a second? And then here's me looking at the coffee and here's me up.

[Amanda]

I'm not uncomfortable looking at them. I could look at them the whole time, but I'm like, but this could be a lot. Like, now I'm getting lost in your eyes.

[Shane]

That's why it's hard for me the other way around. Because, like, you were just talking to Amanda. Y' all had direct eye contact, but because you were talking, I wasn't, like, just listening. I was looking directly at your eyes, which are not looking at me. And I'm like, is that normal? I don't know. But it's the thing that happens next. I'm doing it.

[Amanda]

So this is real. This is real stuff that we're talking about on Smash.

[Angela]

Right at the top. We don't talk enough about eye contact during podcasts.

[Amanda]

We don't.

[Angela]

During an audio medium.

[Amanda]

We don't talk about, like, talking to people in person. Because Covid happened. All these things happen. I feel like we had to retrain ourselves.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

And now.

[Shane]

Yeah, I lost a lot of my ability to just, like, be on in a social situation. I'm like, how the hell did I do this forever?

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Especially with a podcast with two people.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

So you're going to experience that also. The best thing that Shane loves is when you surprise him and just call it out and you're like, hey, am I looking at you for too long? You would love that.

[Shane]

He's Shane's thing is like, I think he's one of the best I've ever seen it, being in the moment. So, like, when you say something out of pocket, that actually is a huge left turn. He has no choice but to laugh because it is.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Wild. And it takes him by surprise because he's there.

[Angela]

He is so present. You're so right.

[Amanda]

And he likes it. He likes it. Chill. But he's totally down to go down the route of, like, real serious topics.

[Angela]

Yeah, I do feel that as well. So I'm so excited. I was talking to Celine. I was like, what if I, like, have some secret, like, writers? And I'm like. And I'm like, like, what if I asked to sit here? And I was like, I only said yes to doing this. If I would sit there and you.

[Amanda]

Would sit, he would. He would probably laugh thinking you're joking. And then he'd be like, oh, all right.

[Angela]

Okay.

[Amanda]

And then he would. He would be here and be really flustered. And he probably wouldn't be as funny if he was sitting here because this is my spot.

[Angela]

Or I just do it to fuck with him. And I'm like, how does it feel?

[Amanda]

I think he should.

[Shane]

Absolutely.

[Amanda]

That's another thing about Shane is I feel like if you're like, how does it feel if you, like, kind of get intense with him?

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

I don't know. He.

[Shane]

I feel like he shrugs off. Like, really?

[Angela]

No. But sometimes he's like, let's play.

[Shane]

I feel like he'd be like, yeah. I mean, if it's fine with camera, like, we can switch.

[Amanda]

Yeah. You know, those are the main things you need to know about Shane. And always compliment his clothes. Always. You have to.

[Angela]

What happens if we don't?

[Amanda]

It's really hard. The last person that was gonna do the podcast with him, do you know where she is? No.

[Angela]

In a dirty. She's in a dick. Neither does she.

[Shane]

Do.

[Amanda]

No, you do not. You don't know where she is. And that's Shane. Top for you. God, he's gonna kill me.

[Shane]

And we will never know. Oh, my God, we'll never know.

[Amanda]

And I'll be the next one on his list.

[Shane]

But wait, then Your baby has an incredible, like, revenge arc. They train for 18 years, being, like.

[Amanda]

Starting at the age of four, like, in the mountains of Nepal.

[Angela]

Gilgaria.

[Amanda]

Where the hell is that?

[Angela]

I made it up.

[Shane]

I want to. Yes. And that. Yeah, Gilgaria is better than Nepal's mountains.

[Amanda]

My baby's gonna revenge and come after Shane.

[Angela]

Gilgaria. People show up in the comments.

[Amanda]

[Shane]

He's a great hus.

[Angela]

He has the best clothes in the world.

[Amanda]

Shane is literally everything we're describing on Shane is not Shane.

[Angela]

But I know it's not going to do. He's going to be like, what did you guys mean by that?

[Shane]

Adding the lore of Shane.

[Amanda]

He's going to read the comments and be like, what?

[Angela]

Like, where's Gilgaria?

[Shane]

We need new Shane lore because, like, he's been on Smosh for so long and he's always very open. I feel like a lot of people know things. Like, he could never do two truths and a lie.

[Amanda]

I know.

[Shane]

We need new Shane Lord.

[Angela]

Yeah, we're doing that meme with the cars where that. That Car getting off the freeway.

[Amanda]

Oh, yeah.

[Shane]

Oh, yeah.

[Amanda]

I actually know that meme. Yeah. Yep.

[Angela]

Hey, and I can't believe I referenced a meme. And I can't believe you knew it.

[Amanda]

There you look at that.

[Angela]

I met some growth.

[Amanda]

You're smash mouth. Ready?

[Angela]

We talked about a me.

[Shane]

Okay, for those of you just listening, Amanda and Angela could not reach each other's hands while trying to handshake. Thank you.

[Amanda]

Yeah. This table is very long, and that's what keeps me and Shane at a healthy distance.

[Angela]

I take back my hot take. I think smosh mouth does need Shane and it does need Amanda. But there's another version of smosh mouth that'll be even cooler. Hot take.

[Amanda]

I cannot wait. No, seriously.

[Angela]

Or just a different type of cool? I don't know. I'm trying to walk it back. I feel bad.

[Shane]

We should just have a normal conversation after everything.

[Angela]

I can't have eye contact.

[Amanda]

Listen, I think you two are the perfect people to take over while I'm gone because you guys are hilarious. You have such different relationships with Shane, and I think it's so fun. You have sibling energy. You also. You don't have sibling. What is it? Roommate energy.

[Angela]

It's like the Shane. It's like the Shane and Damien show. A little.

[Shane]

Yes, A little bit. Yeah.

[Amanda]

Milkshake.

[Shane]

I think Shane and I are like, fun at. Good at, like, poking fun at each other. But at the end of the day, if someone were like, can Shane do this? I'd be like, shane can do anything. So like, it's. It is sibling energy, but it's like just a different way.

[Amanda]

Yeah, he. You're the one who's like.

[Angela]

You and him come off to me as the kids that are like, can we sit in the trunk?

[Shane]

I was like, that. That's an increasingly specific read. But I was that kid.

[Angela]

Those kids were like. And I was one of those at some point. But it was like, it would be the greatest thing in the world if.

[Amanda]

We could sit in the trunk.

[Shane]

Did you ever get that to like, actually happen when your parents were like, oh, we bought this huge thing and you're gonna have to sit in the trunk? You're like.

[Amanda]

That is so good.

[Shane]

That's the most specific read I've ever had.

[Amanda]

Those kids are so specific. Cuz all they want to do is watch the cars that are right behind the other cars.

[Angela]

You and Jane in the back, like.

[Shane]

100%.

[Angela]

You spilled the free dolls, Everyone, can.

[Amanda]

You guys change the channel? Cuz we can't really hear it back here in the Trunk.

[Angela]

And they're like, w. Doctor, the cops.

[Shane]

I'm going to wave out back being like, please, please help. I'm not with these people. And you know, just as a joke.

[Amanda]

To my parents who can't put you in the tr. And then you.

[Angela]

And then you park at Dave and Busters or whatever the you're at, and you're like, please.

[Amanda]

They'Re fine.

[Shane]

It's a cool 95 degrees. We'll crack the window.

[Amanda]

Wow, that reference was solid.

[Angela]

Thanks. I think we all just remembered being kids in the trunk.

[Amanda]

Yeah. I never wanted to be one of those kids.

[Shane]

No.

[Amanda]

I didn't like being in the way. Way back. I was like, I'm trapped here. I'm never leaving. This seat belt's never coming off.

[Shane]

Can I ask a personal question?

[Amanda]

Yes.

[Shane]

You are tall. Now, were you taller than average then?

[Amanda]

Yes.

[Shane]

Okay.

[Angela]

Were you a tall girl in middle school?

[Amanda]

I was 5 10, at like 12 or something.

[Shane]

Dam sorry.

[Amanda]

People thought I was a substitute teacher. And I was like, me. And I had braces. I was like, what are you talking about?

[Angela]

What were you wearing?

[Shane]

Substitute teachers can have braces.

[Amanda]

That's fine. You're right, actually.

[Angela]

And we're back to hot takes.

[Shane]

Woo. And see, that's the thing. You bring the chaos and I'll gently, like, reel it in sometimes.

[Amanda]

You're right. Adults can have braces and I think it's great. But for me, I was like, I'm 12.

[Shane]

That's the biggest factor for sure.

[Angela]

I don't think it might have been the braces that were the telltale. I'm worried you looked like a teacher.

[Amanda]

Yeah, I probably did. I think I wore long skirts.

[Angela]

Yeah. I don't think it was a brace.

[Shane]

Chico's.

[Amanda]

I was like, I loved Esmeralda, so I'm going to look like Esmeralda, but all I have is Chico's.

[Shane]

Yeah, Chico's, Chico's and Belk. Or Belks.

[Angela]

Okay, hot takes, let's bring them out. I have a list.

[Amanda]

Okay. I do actually have a fashion hot take. And maybe I'm wrong for this. Chunky sneakers were never cute.

[Angela]

Ooh.

[Shane]

What kind of chunky sneakers do we mean?

[Amanda]

All those big white sneakers that. It looks like you're chunky. Listen. No, no, these are not. Those are normal chunky. Yeah, the ones where it looks like you're a baby and you put your dad's sneakers on. Yeah, but kids like teenagers or people.

[Angela]

But it makes your legs look so skin.

[Amanda]

Tea Skin teeth. They're not cute. That's my hot take.

[Shane]

I Don't wear sneakers too often. But like, I have a weird. I guess it's like a weird body issue thing where no matter what kind of pants I'm wearing, jeans, whatever. If my shoes are just like the size of my feet Exactly. I always am like, these are too small. And I wear like a size 11 and I'm.

[Angela]

Feels like a sock.

[Shane]

It feels like. Yeah, it just feels like I look down and I'm like, oh, see, it's a little like tubby toes. Like.

[Angela]

Yeah, the big shoes.

[Shane]

Feel like it balances.

[Amanda]

I like big shoes. I'm talking about specifically about the chunky white. Like the big white.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Can I ask, can we Google what we're talking about? Yeah, we can google.

[Angela]

I would look up like chunky Filas.

[Amanda]

Yeah, look up Chunky Felix. And here's the thing. I know a lot of people in the comments are gonna hate me for this, but I.

[Angela]

Hey, that's what the hot takes are. Hot takes are going over. We're putting this on the Internet. We're gonna clip it. Let's walk a tightrope. Let's say things that people are gonna fight about. The comments.

[Amanda]

It's.

[Shane]

I see what you're talking about. Is it. Is it this one?

[Amanda]

Like these?

[Shane]

That's exactly what I'm. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Yeah.

[Amanda]

And you know what?

[Shane]

Sorry. Because it's not balanced.

[Amanda]

Yeah, it's like hot take on me. I look insane, I think.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Those would.

[Angela]

If I saw you in those, I'd be like, whoa, you don't need to add more height.

[Amanda]

One time a wardrobe person put me in that for when I did an Alexa commercial and my friend was like, hey, you killed that commercial. The shoes were not okay.

[Shane]

Oh, no.

[Amanda]

The shoes were.

[Angela]

That's a good friend. That's a good friend.

[Amanda]

She's a very good friend. She was like, bad shoes.

[Shane]

What are you supposed to do about it? Commercials, Films.

[Amanda]

Exactly. It was done. Yeah, yeah.

[Angela]

Oh, that's a good hot take. Okay, I got one.

[Amanda]

Okay.

[Angela]

There is no such thing as a. A good kisser or a bad kisser. It's just compatibility.

[Amanda]

Will not agree with that hot.

[Angela]

Okay, hold on. You're thinking about that bad kisser that like ate your mouth?

[Amanda]

Yes.

[Angela]

I think there's another person that that person could kiss and then they're compatible.

[Amanda]

You're right. Or they learn.

[Angela]

Like, I think I've had bad kissers, but I just think we weren't compatible mouth wise.

[Amanda]

That actually could be true.

[Shane]

I think it's both true, though. Like, I think you're supposed to, like, sort of feel out your romantic kissing partner. I don't know what the kids are calling these days.

[Angela]

It just felt like we were in Bulgaria for a second.

[Shane]

No, but you're supposed to, like, feel out the vibe and, like, learn each other together as opposed to, like, here's what I'm bringing to the table. How about you? Like, so, like, yeah, there are bad kissers if they're not trying to.

[Angela]

They're not listening and responding.

[Shane]

Yeah, exactly.

[Amanda]

I think that hot take is pretty. But I do think that there are some kissers who. It's like, I don't know who's. Who you're gonna match up with.

[Angela]

I think there are some kissers that are coming in with the wrong toolbox, but I don't think they're a bad kisser.

[Amanda]

Would you say that to a person? If they kiss you and they were bad, would you say, hey, I think you're coming in with the wrong toolbox, buddy. Let's work this out. Let's get another set of tools.

[Angela]

I'd say in my garage, I'd say, I feel like you're not yes and ing me. I feel like, let's just, like, meet in the middle a little bit. You got to listen.

[Shane]

Well, theater, improv.

[Amanda]

That's an improv.

[Angela]

So I'm actually going to demand that that be cut because that was so embarrassing.

[Shane]

I'm going to use my one veto to keep it in. But, like, no, I've. I've had, you know, experiences where, like, yes, maybe someone is, like, a different style of kisser, but I've also had experiences where, like, look, a little bite here and there is. You know, that can be great. That can be specific. That could be sexy. But I've had moments where someone's whole thing was like, oh, kissing. Do you mean biting the absolute shit out of your. And it was just like, the whole time, it was like, ah, ow. Actually, ow. This is your whole thing. I. I'm all set.

[Angela]

See, that's their whole thing. That doesn't make them a bad kisser. That's just their thing.

[Amanda]

They might like another biter. Two biters together.

[Shane]

Can I be so honest and vulnerable with you right now? I'm no stranger to a little bite. Like, that's normal and that's cool. And that's great to add. In the toolbox, this was Captain Crunch's Oops. All biting. And it's. That's not kissing. No, that's a bad kisser.

[Amanda]

I've had a kisser who. It was like horse bites. You know.

[Shane]

You have to lay your hands.

[Angela]

That's disgusting.

[Amanda]

It was, like, full horse bites. Yeah. Like, you're like, feeding a horse and it comes out disgusting.

[Angela]

Amanda. It was so. That's a bad kisser.

[Shane]

Here we go.

[Amanda]

Exactly. And I don't know where he is now, and I hope that he's happy.

[Angela]

On a farm somewhere. Okay, what's next?

[Shane]

Counting by stamping his feet.

[Amanda]

Okay. I know that people are gonna hate me for this.

[Shane]

Can I. Yeah, you go snag one.

[Angela]

Because we can.

[Amanda]

Yeah, you snag.

[Shane]

Is that all right? Yes. Here is a wild one. And I hope no one's mad at me.

[Amanda]

They might.

[Shane]

You know how people got super mad at Taylor Swift for using a private jet? And everyone's like, ah, it's so bad for the environment. Yeah, it is bad for the environment. It's so bad for the environment. I don't really have a problem with specifically Taylor Swift using a private jet. Sometimes I think when you're the level of, like, ultra rich celebrity where, like, if you were to go to an airport, it would actually ruin everybody else's day at the airport because of how much nobody could move and people buying tickets just to get into the terminal, even if they're not going anywhere just to see Taylor Swift, I'm like, I don't know what the other solution is.

[Amanda]

Right.

[Shane]

Maybe don't do it for a one mile trip. That would suck.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Angela]

Don't do, like, the Sacramento thing that Kylie Jenner was doing. Well, she's, like, going to Vegas.

[Shane]

That's drivable. But I just mean in general.

[Angela]

Like, I also, like, in full transparency, we're, like, talking about hot takes and we're talking about Taylor Swift, and I'm a little scared. I don't want to say anything wrong.

[Shane]

I am also, so let's just, like.

[Angela]

Walk a straight line.

[Amanda]

Blake Lively dropped her whole, you know, thing against Justin Baldoni because, you know, Taylor Swift was like, like, I will not support you. And then she dropped her lawsuit.

[Angela]

And then.

[Shane]

Wow.

[Amanda]

And. And they're.

[Angela]

They're the facts.

[Amanda]

And people.com told me this.

[Angela]

I think that's a. I think that's a great point.

[Shane]

Thank you.

[Angela]

I get scared because I know our world is on fire.

[Amanda]

I know.

[Shane]

I know.

[Angela]

And I know that these planes are not doing it correct.

[Amanda]

Planes are not doing well.

[Shane]

My whole thing in general is like, we have to overhaul and change so many things. Yes. You got to do whatever you can. It's just that specific one where I'm like, damn, I don't know what the other fixes.

[Angela]

You are so right. Because airports are a shit show. And you add in now like, like any type of like big celebrity. I can't even imagine.

[Shane]

I think it was Livy Dunn that's now getting like. They're like people that show up at airports, like 20 or 30 guys that just buy tickets to make it to the terminal to ask for autographs and photos. It's happening a lot with like women athletes, specifically Olympians. And so I'm just like, can you imagine that to the level of T. Swift?

[Angela]

Like, geez, you're so right. Like I, I would bring my grandma on a flight all the time and just get. Yeah. The amount of men wanting to touch her.

[Amanda]

And that's fame, people.

[Angela]

I meant like. Yeah, but to just get a wheelchair for a woman took. Takes the airport so long.

[Amanda]

It does.

[Angela]

So I can't even imagine. So it's a, It's a hot take.

[Shane]

It's a hot take.

[Amanda]

It is a good hot take.

[Shane]

It's a hot take where nobody wins because yes, private jets are awful.

[Amanda]

Speaking of technology, self driving cars are still terrifying and I never want to get in one. That's my hot take. But I know people who take them.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Often and good for them.

[Shane]

Are we talking like Tesla Autopilot or like a Wayo?

[Amanda]

Both.

[Shane]

Okay.

[Amanda]

Either.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Yeah. One that just basically self drives. I just don't think that they should ever occur.

[Angela]

No, I mean there's a lot of stuff about them that's kind of how I feel. Bad. Bad about him.

[Shane]

Bad stuff. You know, Bad stuff. I've seen eye roll, but. Oh, and there you go, Will Smith. And I don't want to.

[Angela]

I once was at something and a girl was like, oh my God. I like, I can't.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

This was crazy. She was like, I honestly was gonna be so late this morning because I didn't have time to do my makeup. But then I just put my car in self driving and I did my makeup.

[Amanda]

I went, huh, What?

[Shane]

That's what?

[Amanda]

That's what my friend.

[Angela]

And I was like, that's. There's just like girlies out there doing their eyeshadow behind the wheel while the wheel is taking over.

[Amanda]

Sitting. Oh, her own car.

[Angela]

She was in the car. Went self drive. And then just here's the thing that.

[Shane]

I, I think that's so wrong. But I also know that like just being on the LA freeway, I've looked to the left at, you know, what the hell just caused that person almost merge into me and it's the same thing. Someone's doing that in the mirror. So I'm like, like that's wrong. Either way, I hate self driving cars, but I guess it's better than her just being in like a Nissan Versa. I'll figure it out.

[Angela]

Have you seen the video of the Waymo hitting the Postmates cart? No.

[Shane]

That's like a turf war.

[Angela]

No, Patrick sent it to me and it's unfortunately, it's the funniest thing I've ever seen.

[Amanda]

Wait, is it, is it the Postmates cart that just like.

[Shane]

And they're both going on and turning.

[Angela]

They go, what?

[Shane]

That's so funny.

[Angela]

You're like, I can't wait for the rest of our lives.

[Amanda]

Wait for the future.

[Shane]

It's going to be a Sharks and jets of the, of the Waymo and the spots.

[Angela]

Okay, I got another one.

[Amanda]

Okay.

[Angela]

Chips. I've actually said this on the channel before. Not this specific channel, but I mentioned it and now I hardcore him launching it.

[Amanda]

Oh boy.

[Angela]

Chips are made for men's mouths. Chips should be smaller for all mouth types. Show me. No one in this room is eating those chips. One bite, right? A Cool Ranch doesn't fit and I, I actually want to take it back. I don't mean to gender it at all. Chips are just too big. Yeah, chips I think are being made for. Oh, we're getting nose already. Chips. No one eats those chips like that. You make them smaller.

[Amanda]

No, I, I'm with you. Because they cut your mouth up.

[Angela]

Tortilla chips look like tacos.

[Amanda]

Yeah, it's like.

[Shane]

Well, because they are, they are, they're just tortillas.

[Angela]

Sure, sure. And I walked into that. I just mean like it's a chip, it should be small. Yeah.

[Shane]

I have a really big problem. I don't, I can't buy chips and just keep them in the home because I will just like house the whole bag and being like, oops. So I kind of like the bigger chips because it forces me to take a few bites out of one chip. Like, do you feel like you need one?

[Angela]

See, that's what weird to me. I, I, I don't want to bite one chip.

[Amanda]

I don't want to burn it.

[Angela]

Like I think it should like, like taking one, like a couple bites of one Cool Ranch Dorito feels like that's a piece of bread.

[Amanda]

Yeah. And it's getting everywhere. And also, what about when dip happens? When dip occurs, you want to dip it and do one. But when you dip and you look at someone eating a chip, make eye contact with Someone eating a chip. It's not fun or you're done to.

[Angela]

Chip ratio needs to be massive for it to fit. Like we're buttering a slice of toast at this point. You know what I mean? Like, like, I just think it should be smaller.

[Amanda]

I'm with you.

[Shane]

I'll break a Dorito in half and then dip either half. So you're not double dipping though.

[Amanda]

I don't dip Doritos to you guys.

[Shane]

Well, just tortilla, chip, whatever.

[Angela]

You know, any type of chip. Like a cheese egg. It perfect chip size.

[Amanda]

Love it.

[Angela]

Perfect chip size.

[Shane]

That's a cracker.

[Angela]

Yes, but that's a chip size.

[Shane]

Okay.

[Angela]

Is it cheese it a cracker?

[Shane]

I would say it's a cracker. Yeah. It's like baked.

[Amanda]

It's.

[Angela]

See that's what I'm saying is all crackers are good sizes. Ch. Chips. Whoa. Sorry. I'm having a moment. I'm thinking about chips I eat.

[Shane]

That's what this is for.

[Amanda]

This is a hot chips.

[Angela]

Like all chips are too big. I'm over it.

[Amanda]

I'm with you.

[Shane]

Is it size or is it shape? Cuz like Dorito, the triangle thing. Like. Yeah, that's going to hit your sides of your mouth no matter what. Pretty much. Unless you're like and like sort of wiggle it in. What if it was like same size but kind of rounded? Like an actual. Like a Pringle style. Like a human mouth shape.

[Angela]

Pringles too big.

[Amanda]

Do you know what I miss? Too big. Pringles are way too big. Do you know what I miss? And you guys probably don't remember this. Remember When Doritos made 3D Doritos?

[Shane]

I remember that.

[Amanda]

And I love those back in the day.

[Angela]

Like puff, puffy.

[Shane]

They're like little puff triangles, but they're like this big.

[Angela]

Yes, I do remember those. Were they small?

[Shane]

They were.

[Amanda]

Yes. Yes. They were perfect. They were perfect.

[Shane]

Do I have a huge ass mouth? Because Pringles are no problem. Whoa.

[Amanda]

Really?

[Angela]

Wow.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

Okay, when you have. Okay. When you have a Gatorade or a drink like this, do you hold out?

[Shane]

No, I don't.

[Amanda]

That's actually a great question. Good question for a first date too.

[Shane]

Yeah. Yeah. So what do you do? How big is your mouth?

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Do you whole bottle the Gatorade or do you do sips?

[Angela]

We actually talked about this recently in a, in a video. We were drinking Gatorade in this. In this little soccer video and I. And I looked at, I looked at it. I think it was Spencer and he was like or it wasn't Spencer's chance. And I was like, holy.

[Shane]

I. I have a mouth size that would allow that. But, like, how is that comfortable for drinking? Like, but it's still not comfortable.

[Angela]

Also, just like, get it all up here.

[Amanda]

Yeah. I don't get it all up here. I do it right here. So it's. It leaves a whole marker just.

[Shane]

You just. It's like a cup. You, like, tilt your head back and it doesn't have to hit your nose if you like. Yeah.

[Angela]

Oh, no, that's good. That's good. That's the adult way.

[Amanda]

Kids would just have like.

[Shane]

Yeah, the Kool Aid, the Kool Aid mustache.

[Amanda]

How hard you going, buddy?

[Shane]

Yeah, relax. That's why they make Kool Aid jammers. We can twist off the little top.

[Angela]

Or Fugals.

[Amanda]

Fugals are so cute.

[Angela]

Those were a good size.

[Amanda]

Yeah. No one eats them. They only put them on their fingers to pretend they're a witch. No one, actually.

[Shane]

They're so good. I used to live like one block from a 7 11. And if I was like hungry at 2 in the morning playing video games, I'm like, I believe I deserve some Bugles.

[Angela]

And so Bugle is the name.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

What did you say?

[Angela]

I said fugal.

[Amanda]

Oh, were you thinking about fun goals?

[Angela]

What is Fungals?

[Shane]

What's up, Onions? Fungal.

[Angela]

Fungals is really good.

[Amanda]

Never mind.

[Angela]

Funyun's too big too. I'm like, bite, bite.

[Amanda]

But Bugles are cute.

[Shane]

Bugles are cute. You put them on your fingers, pretend you're a little witch, and like, they're so good for you. Don't look at the nutrition facts.

[Amanda]

Oh, no.

[Shane]

But they're so tasty.

[Amanda]

This episode is brought to you by zocdoc.

[Angela]

Shane, you're back.

[Amanda]

Where have you been?

[Damian]

Sorry, I was at the doctors. I had a little skeeball accident, but wanted to pop in, talk about Zoc Doc a little bit. Just kidding. I actually, it wasn't a skeeball incident. I wear a helmet when I play skeeball. But I have used Zoc Doc many times and it is incredible.

[Amanda]

So much information that I didn't want about the skee ball.

[Damian]

Back to the show.

[Angela]

What's next?

[Shane]

I've got one specifically about driving because we're talking about it. Being able to drive should be way more difficult to achieve with the caveat that we need public transit. I feel like that is a. You're just being 1000 pound vehicle that most people are absolute ass at driving. Like everyone driving. I'm just like, how are you allowed to do this? But also it should be really accessible to be able to get places. Still feel.

[Amanda]

I agree.

[Angela]

I feel this exact way about tattoo artists. Oh yeah, Anyone can buy one. Yup, anyone can buy one. I feel this way about DJs. Anyone can grab it right there should be. You should have to, you know what I mean, to be a teacher, you need, you need to get a certification.

[Amanda]

To be a waiter.

[Angela]

You need a food handling certificate.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

To be a tattoo artist. I actually do think you need a little something if you're going to sell tattoos.

[Shane]

You do. And I think you do specifically in Korea. You need to have the same qualifications that a doctor would in order to do this because you need to like, actually, you know, you're working with needles and blood and things like that. So that's why a lot of Korean artists go touring around the world because they, you know, don't need those qualifications. So everything on my right arm was done by an artist who was like visiting from Korea to be like, now I don't have to be a doctor, I can just do this. They take it seriously.

[Amanda]

Where are you getting your driver's shoes from?

[Angela]

Bed City? I think you're right. The driver's test is kind of like, kind of made for everyone to pass.

[Shane]

Yeah. It shouldn't be a given that like as soon as you're 16, it is expected that like, yeah, just drive this multi thousand pound and you can just destroy anyone and anything at any time just for oops.

[Amanda]

But let me play devil's advocate on that one because I do feel like.

[Shane]

The devil needs Some help.

[Amanda]

I do feel like sometimes teenagers need to see that independence. And the only way to do it is kind of throw them in. I know that's terrible. They could get in accidents. But like, how else do you learn? But I also think not good.

[Angela]

I think there's a lot of red tape around, like the. For the permit, which is like the written test.

[Shane]

Right.

[Angela]

It might be different in different states and stuff, but. But like, I had a trouble passing the written test.

[Amanda]

Me too.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

But then you get behind the.

[Amanda]

That thing and it was like the guy's like, park, you're done.

[Angela]

But like, I don't remember from that written test. And that was probably like some serious, like, hey, do this. You can't do this. And that stuff just kind of goes right over your head.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Do you still get to a four way intersection and you go, is it you or is it you or is it me who. I know someone arrived first, but isn't it person on the left?

[Shane]

It's the person on the right that gets to go. If there's any question about.

[Angela]

Or how often are you like, who's got the right of way here? Let's talk.

[Amanda]

Yeah. I.

[Shane]

The window. Be like, you guys want to talk this out?

[Amanda]

But I. I do think that you, when you do take your driver's tests, there are people that like, help you drive. Like, whether it's like your mom's friend that you've never met before in your life. And I was like schooled on parallel parking. And I can parallel park with my eyes shut.

[Angela]

Okay.

[Amanda]

I was.

[Angela]

Have we ever talked about this? It's one of my greatest skills. Me too.

[Shane]

Really?

[Amanda]

We have not talked about this at all.

[Angela]

It's crazy. It is. I am proficient. And I would say. I would almost say I am a little bit of a savant.

[Shane]

Then I would go ahead and say that y' all both have earned driving.

[Amanda]

Thank you. Because I think parallel parking is where people get screw up completely. They hold up traffic, they hit other cars. It's very important to park. And I feel like we did not learn that enough.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Shane]

I think that's like. I feel like that's always the thing, even on, like cartoons where they'll build up like, oh, the parallel parking is the hardest part. But it is also, I think, the least consequential. Like, you can always readjust find a different spot. Yeah. You might hit someone's bumper. But like, it's the actual driving stuff that I'm like, you're gonna kill someone.

[Amanda]

One. I. I agree. And also, when People get a little bit older.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

And you're like, grandma.

[Angela]

Well, they are cracking down on that. I know in California, like, my grandma had to, like, retest, and it was really hard for her.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Angela]

And then it was like. But it's hard because then I like, she couldn't call an Uber. It's really. It's.

[Shane]

That's what I'm saying. Like, they need something in its place. So I'm not just being like, no one should be allowed to drive. It's like, no, there needs to be other stuff.

[Angela]

Understood. Understood.

[Amanda]

That makes sense. Okay. I have a hot take. Not from me, but from Selena. And I think Alexina put some on here.

[Angela]

Okay.

[Amanda]

Oh. Oh, okay. Well, first of all, they put. Everyone needs to retake the driver's test every 10 years. So.

[Shane]

Yo. For real.

[Amanda]

They're with you on that.

[Angela]

Ten years and you think chips should be smaller?

[Amanda]

I don't think she wrote chips should be smaller on here, which is wild. But she pro. She probably was going to. There's chip is in here somewhere.

[Angela]

Yeah. You just probably can't find it.

[Amanda]

Yeah, I probably can't find it.

[Angela]

Maybe she texted it to me directly, so.

[Amanda]

Oh, speaking of food, though, you shouldn't have to wait for everyone to get their food before you start eating.

[Shane]

That's true.

[Amanda]

Take.

[Shane]

Agreed. That's how I grew up. That's apparently how it's done.

[Amanda]

I gotta say, I'm 50. 50 on this one.

[Angela]

That's how you grew up?

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

How did you guys grow up?

[Amanda]

I grew up. Everyone waits.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Oh, I grew up. You eat the food. Like, you wait for the food. The food does not wait for you.

[Amanda]

But then when you're with. But then when you're with specific people, like my grandparents, it was like, you better eat that food or else it's going to get cold.

[Angela]

See, I. In my house, it's. It's not one or the other. It's. You wait while someone yells at you not to wait. And you say, I'm going to wait. And then someone yells at you, don't wait.

[Shane]

Really?

[Angela]

That's what I'm used to is being like, eat, please. No, I'm going to wait for you. No, I.

[Amanda]

No.

[Angela]

This makes me mad. It's getting cold. No, I'm going to wait. I'm going to wait. I'm going to wait for you.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Angela]

That's what I'm doing. You have to do the exchange.

[Amanda]

That's kind of where I'm at now. Like, I feel like that's. That. That's what Happens now. Like, I. I can't handle when people wait. I'm like, please, I don't want your food to get cold.

[Angela]

See, but as someone who likes to wait, I hate eating and being done earlier. Like, I don't want to be fully calibrated. But I also, like, if I eat before you start, I. Then I'm like, sitting with an empty bowl and I'm like, I wish I had more. Like, Like, I'm like, ah, I'll play with the brain bread. Like, I. I need something else to do while you're cracking into your branzine. You know what I mean?

[Amanda]

Like, it's like cracking into my branzino.

[Angela]

I just need something I need. I. I want to be both doing the same thing.

[Amanda]

You're kind of right. Especially at a restaurant.

[Shane]

Yeah, I think restaurants are usually pretty good about it. My thing is, like, if. If three people get their food and I'm the last one, where they're like, and it's just gonna be another minute with your thing. I'm, like, frustrated because I'm like, I don't mind waiting, but, like, yalls, food is getting cold. It's not under a lamp. Like, Like, I think maybe it's a personal preference thing, but I think there is.

[Amanda]

But you grew up differently, though.

[Shane]

I grew up differently, and that's fair. And I think sometimes, you know, if it is, like, well, grandma's gonna get mad. You know, it's. That feels like a relic of the past to me, but also, like, I don't know.

[Angela]

That's a good one. Well, what else has she got?

[Amanda]

She's got some great ones. And remember, this is. This is Selena and also Alexina.

[Shane]

Alexina gave me one to say is.

[Angela]

Kind of queen of hot takes.

[Amanda]

We have to say. We have to say this.

[Angela]

Like, I do feel like you. You are like, you are nodding or you are just. You are either agreeing or disagreeing, and that's it. You know, it's like, there's no gray area.

[Amanda]

This I agree with completely. And my husband will agree with this. And he says it all the time. If you're not dancing, get off the dance floor.

[Angela]

Oh, what are you doing on there?

[Shane]

Is that a thing people do?

[Amanda]

Oh, yeah. So if I ever go to shows with h, like these techno house shows, I get. I get it. It's a different vibe. But like, like, you gotta get off the dance floor. It's also like, because people will stand.

[Shane]

There and be like, oh, no.

[Amanda]

Oh. And then there are people who are.

[Shane]

Like, that just feels like a hazard no, it's bad. It's a road.

[Amanda]

You gotta get off the dance floor. Nah, I completely agree.

[Shane]

I'm not the biggest completely agree. Like, yeah. I've never just sat on the dance floor and been like, hey, look at that.

[Angela]

Okay, let's get in the weeds about this. What if someone is like, not really going hardcore. Like, it's. It's your friend's boyfriend who's just there.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Angela]

And he's. And he's like, we're getting a little step. That's cool.

[Shane]

I think if you're from Darryl, that's okay.

[Angela]

But Darren, Daryl can't really like go.

[Amanda]

Go with the floor he stepped touching for five hours.

[Angela]

Daryl can't find like the ones and twos.

[Shane]

Like, you know, and he's like, yeah.

[Amanda]

And he's like.

[Angela]

But he's barely moving. And you. And. And to someone dancing near Daryl, it would seem as if he's standing right.

[Amanda]

Yeah. And we love Daryl because we just met him. She's really happy.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

And she's happy. And at least it's not Sean.

[Amanda]

Oh, Sean was awful.

[Angela]

And Sean sucked. Right. So we're, we're like kind of like, oh, oh, Daryl's Daryl.

[Amanda]

And he's like, you guys want drinks?

[Angela]

And then Daryl checks his phone, puts it down.

[Shane]

I'm not mis.

[Angela]

Someone.

[Shane]

I've been the Daryl. I've been the Daryl.

[Amanda]

Daryl's not a bad guy.

[Angela]

A lot of Daryls are watching right now.

[Amanda]

Bad Sean, not a good guy.

[Shane]

Sean can right off.

[Angela]

And that's cuz he stole her money.

[Shane]

It's. It's just. He stole her money. He stole her time. She's not going to get those 20s.

[Angela]

Back and give her the dog back.

[Shane]

Give the dog.

[Amanda]

Give her the dog.

[Shane]

Yeah. Join custody with an ex dog. That's crazy. I have it and I think that's great.

[Amanda]

And I think that's normal hot take. And I love that she's doing it.

[Angela]

Well.

[Shane]

That's not a hot take.

[Angela]

It's like, will you pick up your son? I'm shooting all day. Will you pick your son up and look him in the eye?

[Amanda]

She's doing it well.

[Angela]

Okay, Wait, what? We're just talking about.

[Amanda]

Yeah. Daryl.

[Shane]

Daryl.

[Amanda]

You can be a Daryl sometimes.

[Shane]

I can be a Daryl. Yeah, sorry. I can be a Daryl sometimes. And like, I'm not the biggest dancer. Every once in a while the mood will strike me like, I think there was a vidcon party last, last year that I was at and I was just like, let's flip and go and I was, like, in a full, like, dancing mood, but for the most part, like, I want to participate with my friends, and I will move just enough to, like, be dancing.

[Amanda]

That's fine. There are some people who are at a standstill.

[Shane]

That's not okay.

[Amanda]

And they literally. It's like they have, like, a box around them where it's like, you can't even get near them.

[Shane]

With the caveat of, like, if you have. Obviously if. Because there's the Internet, we have to say it. If someone has a reason that they are truly unable to move, move like that. You can still participate with your friends. Great. We're talking about people who just choose to sort of stand there.

[Amanda]

They choose.

[Shane]

They choose.

[Angela]

Just go to the bar.

[Amanda]

Just go to the bar.

[Angela]

Just go to the bar and check your phone there. Go to the bar and take it from there.

[Shane]

I've got one from Alexina as well, if that's okay.

[Angela]

Also, Alexen is texting everyone but me. Oh, yeah.

[Amanda]

You didn't get all of her texts and all of her friends?

[Angela]

No, I'm just waiting for. I agree with you about chips, and I'm not seeing it anywhere.

[Amanda]

So you're never getting that.

[Shane]

That every. And I'm. And I'm adding the word damn here. Everyone should mind their damn business.

[Amanda]

And I think that's an excellent hot take.

[Shane]

That's great, Alex, and I appreciate you.

[Amanda]

I love that hot take so much. Because, you know, the people, like, especially people at the airport who are coming up to you and they're like. And you're like, you're going to tell me something that I don't need to hear. They're going to be like, you should really not put your bag right here. And you're like, I just had that. Know you. I don't know you.

[Shane]

I just had that happen.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Shane]

A lady walked up to me and, like, this flight was, like, four or five hours delayed. Like, it was a crazy day. I switched flights. That one got delayed, it got switched back. Whatever. So everybody who's waiting there are just the folks that were there for the long haul. Like, the. The plane was originally full. It was down to, like, 30 people. And she walks over, and I hear. Tell somebody like, you know, I think. I think that we should be able to get reimbursed. I feel like Delta owes us money for the delay. And they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then she makes her way over to me and says the exact same. And I'm like, yeah, that's. That's true. That'll happen. That's the law. And she's like, well, I think they just should give it to us. I'm like, that's correct. Just call in and claim that you were five hours delayed. They do have to pay you for a certain amount of that. And she's like, well, I think they owe us money. And I'm like, correct.

[Amanda]

Come with me, son, and talk to these people.

[Shane]

Yeah, it was. It was nuts. I'm like, you just have to call. Like, it will happen. And then she walked away. And I heard her say something like, I think we should have divided the country, and, you know, blah, blah, blah. And then we can stay on this side and they can stay on that side. And I was like, you're just saying that to a stranger. Like, holy. Yeah, she was a looney tune.

[Amanda]

She has more to do.

[Angela]

Yeah, she should mind her damn business.

[Amanda]

Yeah. I'm trying to think.

[Angela]

Do you guys feel that way? Like, is this about, like, even just your friends, when you're like, what's the tea? And you're like, mind your damn business?

[Amanda]

No, I think that there is a. I do think that there is a line, though, because sometimes when you're deep in a conversation with someone, like, and they're telling you stuff, and then a friend comes up and goes, what's going on? What's going on?

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

And you're like, I. I can't start over. And b, maybe I don't want you to know that part.

[Shane]

Absolutely.

[Amanda]

But there's a lot of people who come in there, like, what's going on? Oh, my God, what happened?

[Shane]

I feel I'm gonna toot my own horn. I'm really good at clocking when that happens. Cause sometimes I'll just walk up and be like. I'll join this conversation. I'll hear one line of it and be like, I'm supposed to be over there. And then I just leave.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

It's tricky, though. It's tricky because you might have, like, three really good friends, and two of you are talking, and maybe they showed up late.

[Angela]

You don't know.

[Amanda]

It's a little bit like them.

[Angela]

Up.

[Amanda]

Do you?

[Angela]

Get on the elevator now. Escalator now. Or wait. You know what I mean? Like, it's a. It is like a. Can I get in here?

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Angela]

You know, but people got to mind their damn fucking business.

[Amanda]

I kind of agree.

[Shane]

There's a lot of Internet stuff where it's just like, did you hear the rumor about two celebrities you've never heard? And I'm like, you need a hobby. Like, Call to be a fan of. Call your mom. She worries especially like you know, being in this space. Like sometimes I don't look for it. The algorithm thinks I'm a fan of me. That's why they show me me stuff. Cuz they would never be like you're you.

[Angela]

So just say you watch fan of yourself.

[Shane]

No, that's fine.

[Angela]

But when it say it that my.

[Shane]

Point is like every once in a while I'll see like a screenshot. I'll be like, look in Damien's story. There was something on his fridge written there. And I'm just like, oh, I actually hate you. Like what are you doing? Like you zoomed in on a story in my fridge. Like it freaks me out. Like mind your business.

[Angela]

No, totally good point.

[Amanda]

I will say I do watch fan edits sometimes times of myself because I'm like, wow, that's a really good edit.

[Shane]

And that. And that's. And it is. And I've seen those.

[Amanda]

I'm like, that's so good. That song choice.

[Angela]

I can't wait for that clip.

[Amanda]

That song choice is fun.

[Angela]

You know what's going to happen? It's going to be you going, wow, what a good edit.

[Amanda]

It's going to be like, yeah, yeah. Because a lot of my edits are literally like.

[Angela]

All my edits have this one moment in our stand up for cancer stream where I'm dancing and I have this shirt that says stand up for cancer.

[Amanda]

Like I'm.

[Angela]

I'm like. And they add this like sexy music and I'm like, me too. And it's a stand up for cancer.

[Amanda]

And I'm literally going like this.

[Angela]

And I'm like, I don't know why we were giving it so hard.

[Shane]

Cuz we. Well there was incentive. We were standing up cancer for sure.

[Amanda]

But why were we like trying to cancer.

[Shane]

I want to clarify. Like that stuff doesn't bother me. That stuff's great. Like it's very sweet. It's just literally like the. Guess what I described.

[Amanda]

Yeah, that's really hard.

[Angela]

I know. For sure. Yeah.

[Amanda]

But yeah, the stand up to cancer fan edits, very hard for me to watch because I'm like, why was I going so hard?

[Angela]

We must have just been like feeling myself that day.

[Shane]

I feel bad. I don't think I have any of those. It's like, do a good job.

[Angela]

Soul Sister by Train. And I'm like.

[Amanda]

Do not bring up Soul Sister by Train. Is that Drops of Jupiter?

[Shane]

No.

[Angela]

Don't sing anything.

[Shane]

There's no such thing as trains. I would never and that's why we can't.

[Amanda]

Do you have another hot take?

[Angela]

Yeah, I do get it.

[Shane]

I think adults can enjoy anything that is made for children, such as Pokemon or whatever. Yeah, but you're not allowed to complain about it because I don't know if y' all are on the same Internet space, because I'm on a lot of nerdy stuff. But, like, whenever a new Pokemon game comes out, so there's a bunch of adults like, oh, can you believe they didn't do this? And the graphics look like that, I'm like, like, hey, I love Pokemon. I will buy every new game as it comes out. You have to remember that it is technically made for children. Yeah, same with like. And this is going to get me some flack. But, like, especially the original Star wars movie. It's knights and wizards in space. It was made as, like a kid and family movie. Whoa, Whoa. But I love it and so do other people.

[Amanda]

I love it.

[Shane]

But don't get mad at the movies that are made generally for families.

[Angela]

You can't be like Blue's Clues derivative.

[Shane]

Yeah, right. Exactly.

[Angela]

Like. Yeah.

[Amanda]

Well, people are getting pretty mad about Lilo and Stitch, so I feel like they maybe need something different.

[Shane]

That one's different.

[Angela]

Honor the original tax. No, I'm kidding.

[Amanda]

This episode is brought to you by Smalls. Shane, how are your cats doing?

[Damian]

You know, they're doing good, but it can be a struggle to find food that they really like. But fortunately, Smalls sent us a bunch of food and treats that protein packed. So them sending a bunch of treats straight to our door. They sent them right here. So convenient. And they love them. They're great.

[Amanda]

Here's a review from a real Smalls customer as well. Elizabeth C. Said, my cat was always so so with her usual food, but she is very enthusiastic about Smalls. Her breath is much better and she poops much less frequently and it does not smell disgusting like it used to.

[Damian]

Well, okay. On top of that, Smalls donated a million dollars worth of food to help cats through the humane world for animals. So they're doing great stuff.

[Shane]

Stuff.

[Damian]

They're really incredible.

[Amanda]

So, so awesome. So generous. What are you waiting for? Give your cat the food they deserve. For a limited time only, because you are a Smoshmouth listener, you can get 60% off your first Smalls order plus free shipping by using my code smoshmouth. That's 60% off when you head to smalls.com and use promo code Smoshmouth. Again, that's promo code Smosh mo mouth for 60 off your first order, plus free [e-mail] Back to the show. Let's go.

[Angela]

Okay. More hot takes. More hot takes.

[Amanda]

More hot takes. Okay. Cats are better than dogs. Who wrote this? Selena wrote this. I'm gonna just.

[Angela]

Just, you know, let's just keep going.

[Amanda]

This is a hard one.

[Shane]

I love all animals so much.

[Amanda]

I love all animals.

[Shane]

As someone who has had cats and had dogs, I do prefer cats.

[Angela]

And as someone who's had cats and dogs, I do prefer dogs.

[Amanda]

I'm allergic to cats.

[Shane]

I think that's a bit of a trump card when you're like, just say that. Yeah.

[Angela]

Okay. You ready for this? This is. This is weird.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Angela]

Okay.

[Amanda]

I love a weird one.

[Angela]

Do you know how like, like a food and the nutritional facts and anything like that needs to be like, regulated by like the fcc? Yeah, we need an fda. But for sizes of clothes, because that's great. Every brand gets to make a different type of size. And could you imagine if food was going, this is 100 calories, but 100 for this brand means 200, and 100 for this brand means 50.

[Amanda]

This is a good hot take.

[Angela]

We recently worked with like a stylist and she asked what size I am and I want went for what brand? Because I don't know, I'm one way in Target's jeans in another for like girly girl jeans that are nice.

[Shane]

Like shoes even too. Like I ordered some really good, like.

[Angela]

Shoes are changing size.

[Shane]

No, I just mean like. So I've been doing a lot of conventions lately and my feet have been hurting so bad cuz I've just been walking a ton. I'm like, I need one really good pair of shoes. And I went to Adidas and I got a really like fancy pair of walking shoes and it was like a ten and a half and it was the last one left of any size. I'm like, like this was made for me. And it was like I was being constricted by a python. And I was like, why? Like, why that small in a size that I often wear, like so different.

[Angela]

For every store, especially for jeans.

[Amanda]

That's what kills me is whenever wardrobe people or whatever, like, what's your size? It's like, in what?

[Angela]

But in what?

[Amanda]

In what? In what brand? I guess I'll just give you my measurements because I can't tell you sometimes like a large or like a large feels like a small.

[Angela]

Everything is so different and it's so hard. And I say one size fits all. Those stores should be shut down. Those stores should Be shut down.

[Amanda]

They need to be down.

[Angela]

We're thinking of one specifically, and I think it should burn on fire.

[Amanda]

Yes, we are.

[Shane]

Yes, that's a true hot take.

[Amanda]

No, seriously, though.

[Angela]

But yeah, I think it's just madness out there.

[Amanda]

I agree.

[Shane]

I used to work in. In retail at a store that specialized in jeans. And it was such a godsend when there would be some kind of new product out that was like, the stretch denim. Because nobody likes shopping for jeans. No one wants to give you their size. And I would just be like, here, this will change your life. And then they would walk out and be like, yep, I'll take this. Thank you for making this a five minute process and not an hour.

[Amanda]

It's funny because I actually wrote a hot take. I think about Jean jeans should be forever replaced with linen pants.

[Shane]

Oh.

[Angela]

And that's a pregnant woman. If I've ever. And I stand by that is a pregnant.

[Amanda]

That's a pregnant woman who wants to live in Italy. And I stand by it because I.

[Angela]

I get that's why you thought you were the substitute teacher.

[Amanda]

You were dressed in linen, just all linen. And it's open and it's like, come.

[Angela]

And they're like, no, she's actually a student.

[Amanda]

Come for dinner there.

[Angela]

No, but like, I.

[Amanda]

Jeans.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Suck. Yeah, sometimes they're cool. But I don't know, maybe it is because I'm really pregnant.

[Shane]

Is it a. Is it a comfort thing? Is it, like a flexibility of the fabric?

[Amanda]

It's so hard to find the right jean. That works really well.

[Shane]

I think once. Once I find a brand that works, like, there's only two brands I order from now because I can trust their sizing. Everything else, I'm like, not gonna do it.

[Angela]

Yeah. The sizing is different all over. And I just think it's got to be like.

[Amanda]

Yeah.

[Shane]

And also the shape of it is different. Like, even. Even something as small as, like, T shirts, where it's small, medium, large. Like, there's some brands where I'm like, oh, that fits my body shape really well. And others where I'm like, oh, that emphasizes all the wrong things. I hate it. I'm gonna break every mirror. Yeah.

[Amanda]

Then are we happy that low rise jeans are back?

[Angela]

I'm happy for the people who are happy. I am not. But I won't. I won't yuck your yum.

[Shane]

Yeah, that's a good way it to put for.

[Angela]

Oh, yeah.

[Amanda]

Hot take. Is yuck your yum a good phrase?

[Angela]

I won't yuck your yum.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

I kind of like it.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Anyways that I just came up with that one on the spot.

[Angela]

That's a homemade one. That question.

[Amanda]

Do we like Yucky.

[Shane]

It's a weird. It is a weird sentence but I don't know what else we do. I'm not going to rain on your parade. Sounds like so old fashioned.

[Angela]

I remember there was this mean piece of poop in my middle elementary school and every day I had a salami sandwich and she'd always go that looks disgusting thing.

[Shane]

I'm glad you still said but piece of.

[Angela]

Piece of poop.

[Amanda]

Of course sandwich every day like let.

[Angela]

Me eat my salami you go home.

[Amanda]

Did you actually say that to her? You said it to.

[Angela]

No, I can say it now because I cuss now and I didn't before.

[Shane]

Listen you piece of poop.

[Amanda]

Oh my God.

[Shane]

I'll take salami. Sandwiches are good. Especially if you cut a hard boiled egg in half and on either side salami sandwich, Swiss cheese, hard boiled egg on either side, lightly toasted bread. Best breakfast sandwich of your life.

[Angela]

Oh.

[Amanda]

Okay. Hot take randomly. Movie should start at the time that's.

[Angela]

Listed so I'll add no previews so I'll know preview.

[Amanda]

So say you're trying to rush to the movie and it's supposed to start at like 8:15 with previews normally then it starts like 8:40.

[Angela]

You okay over there?

[Amanda]

No, I'm falling. This is my 840. If I'm falling it's because I'm on a bouncy ball. What do you guys think about that? That's a hot take from. Is that. That's just Linda.

[Angela]

You're not saying no trailers. You're just saying list when the film starts so I can account for trailers.

[Amanda]

Yeah, so if you want to go early then you watch the trailers.

[Shane]

I think that yes, I think that makes sense. I don't believe in it enough that I'm like that needs to happen. But it is frustrating sometimes where you're like oh, the movie's two hours and it starts at eight. We can still make it to that thing. And then you have to be like oh wait no. There's anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes of other stuff.

[Angela]

And I think I kind of like it because I like the trailers and them telling me it starts then. Cuz it's like when you lie to your friend who's always late. Like my best friend Jeremy, I always lie to him. Like I always give him a 10 minutes earlier thing. I'll say like we're meeting at 7:45 instead of 8. And he will show up at 8. And that does that for me automatically because I get there and I go, I do have to pee.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

And then I sit down and then I go to the bathroom and then I get.

[Amanda]

That's actually true. True.

[Angela]

But yeah, it's a personal preference.

[Amanda]

I think I'm half and half on this because sometimes it is like, dude, now, now, this three hour movie, which we should stop making three hour movies, ends at 1:00am yeah. And you're like, I thought I would be fine.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

That I don't like.

[Angela]

Speaking of three hour movies, hot take. Stop getting rid of intermissions. All plays now are one act, but they're not. They're two acts. I saw a play last night, got rid of the intermission and I went, I know. They got rid of this just so we could sit down longer. Like, I don't know why they just, all intermissions were just tossing them aside.

[Shane]

I agree.

[Amanda]

And they're still just as long.

[Angela]

They're still just as long.

[Shane]

I agree with you. But I don't think society, like, can handle it. And I feel silly saying that.

[Amanda]

But like, can handle.

[Shane]

Wait, what an intermission during a movie. Like, the amount of BS it takes from people to even like, try to find their own seat when they have all the time in the world.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Shane]

And there are people that still show up like 15 minutes late after the actual movie starts, plus previews. I'm like, if you try to funnel everyone out for 10 minutes, they're not going to come back. There's going to be a wait for the restroom. There's going to be a wait for the food and drinks. And then the next like 20 minutes of the actual movie starting is going to be people filing in with popcorn being like, I can't believe they actually started it yet.

[Amanda]

Like, you're right. I think intermissions for movies might be hard, but they're hard.

[Angela]

The theater, it, for some reason, it's. It's like hot now to just like get rid of intermissions.

[Shane]

Is that right?

[Angela]

I just, I.

[Amanda]

So fun though.

[Angela]

And you get to like, look at the bios of the actors and see where they went to college.

[Amanda]

I love the bios of the act. And then the ads in the pamphlets.

[Angela]

Were like, ooh, it's like, come see this old jazz singer on Sunday nights. This guy's singing jazz.

[Shane]

Sonny Bath.

[Amanda]

We should go. We should go.

[Shane]

I agree. And then you get to like, talk to people that you come with and you're just like, how's it going so far, you're like, I'm really enjoying the effects. I thought the old man being played by a kid was weird.

[Amanda]

Yeah. I thought that was so weird.

[Angela]

It's. There's nothing better than Elphaba singing, defying gravity and then going to piss. It leads you perfectly into a break.

[Shane]

That song knocked the p pissed right out of me. Thank God the bathroom was closed.

[Angela]

You go, hey, that go Linda.

[Shane]

Huh?

[Angela]

And you get a glass of water or wine.

[Shane]

Yeah, you got to replenish that.

[Amanda]

I was gonna say the wine.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Because when you have wine during one of these shows, you get a little sleepy, and then you go out and you're like, whoa, lights. Let me get a little bit more wine. And then it takes you into the next act.

[Angela]

Yeah.

[Shane]

And then you sleep.

[Amanda]

God, I miss theater. I love theater.

[Shane]

I do think something like Alamo Drafthouse could have an intermission and manage it, because those are people. Like, if you go there, it's like, you better love movies. You better shut up. And it's like small enough that I think they could do the flickering lights and being like, Mad Max. Fury Road will be starting again in two minutes. You know I love Mad Max. Yeah.

[Amanda]

Anyways, it was good. Yeah, it was very, very good. Wow.

[Angela]

Do I have any other.

[Amanda]

Pot bellies are hot now. That's my hot take.

[Angela]

What's that?

[Shane]

I would. I would agree.

[Angela]

What is that?

[Amanda]

Pot bellies.

[Angela]

What's that?

[Shane]

It's. It's like when someone goes, oh, a pop belly.

[Amanda]

What did you think I said a pot belly. Oh, that's just a restaurant in the. In airports. Isn't it?

[Shane]

Isn't it pot belly? It is pot belly.

[Amanda]

I thought it was pop.

[Angela]

Oh, like. Oh, like you smoke pot.

[Amanda]

Oh, no. Did. Have I been saying this wrong the whole time?

[Shane]

It is pot.

[Angela]

I have like a little bit of a stroke.

[Shane]

I smell blueberries and pennies.

[Angela]

It's fine.

[Amanda]

This is bad. This is like when I was a kid and I. I said babing suit.

[Shane]

Oh, no.

[Amanda]

And it's actually bathing suit.

[Shane]

When I was a kid. I did not know.

[Angela]

I. Sorry. Hold what you call it?

[Amanda]

Babing suit, baby and pink tails like a baby.

[Angela]

No, hold baby. Cuz your mouth couldn't say it cuz.

[Amanda]

You were a kid.

[Angela]

Oh, okay. I thought it was cuz you thought it was called baby.

[Amanda]

I thought it was called babing suit.

[Shane]

That's wild.

[Angela]

Sorry, what were you saying, Damian?

[Shane]

I was just saying I. I thought a birthday suit when I was a kid was like an actual article of clothing. So when Someone's like, something, something birthday suit. I was like, oh, yeah. I don't even have one. I don'. They were like, you don't? I'm like, no. And I'm, like, thinking through my closet. I'm like, I don't have, like, a. Like, a suit for my birthday.

[Angela]

I thought it was. I always thought it was background. I never knew it was background.

[Amanda]

See, there we go.

[Shane]

You don't really say the g. I know.

[Angela]

It's not like, background background. It's background instead of the background.

[Amanda]

Yeah, right. Like, back around. Yeah, but it's background. Well, here's what's worse. I thought a sound bath was an actual bath.

[Shane]

It can be if it's raining.

[Amanda]

Last year, I showed up in my baby suit.

[Angela]

No, wa.

[Shane]

Your babing suit.

[Amanda]

This is. This is not a joke. This is not a prank. I. I've never been a sound bath in my life.

[Shane]

Uhhuh.

[Amanda]

And it was at, like, my Muay Thai studio, and they're like, oh, we're getting a sound bath person. I was like, sick. Where? I thought they were going to, like, bring in a whole tub. I'm not kidding. Bathing suit on, ready to go. I show up, and people are in.

[Shane]

Yoga clothes at a Muay Thai studio.

[Amanda]

Muay Thai studio.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

They have this special, like, ooh, we're partnering up with a sound bath person.

[Shane]

But you were gonna go to a martial arts studio with a single bath and be fine. It'd just be like, my turn in the bath.

[Angela]

Yes.

[Shane]

Ew.

[Amanda]

Well, they do ice baths all the time.

[Angela]

You're a band, Literally.

[Amanda]

I told Garde, and even Garde was like, have a great time.

[Shane]

I was like, yeah, just making. Making people soup with 20 other Muay Thai students.

[Angela]

I'm doing a sound path. I can't wait. We're gonna listen to a band while I'm sitting in the bath at my gym. What are you talking about? I thought we were like. You thought they were going to bring in a big bath?

[Amanda]

Yes. I thought we were laying in there and they were going to, like, duh.

[Angela]

Like, they go, here's Wonder Wall. And you're like.

[Amanda]

And I'm like, wow, this bath is kicking. But no, you sit there and they just do bowls, and you lay down.

[Angela]

I would pay, I think, up to $11,000 to watch you walk in and go, we're not getting any. A bath.

[Amanda]

Oh, trust me. I was like, all right, this is so.

[Shane]

What did you do?

[Amanda]

I was like, this is so awesome.

[Shane]

So you're just in your bathing suit, just laying on the ground.

[Amanda]

I'm going somewhere.

[Angela]

You're sitting crisscross applesauce in your board shorts.

[Shane]

Being like, we have dinner reservations after this. I'm sorry, I don't think I. I.

[Amanda]

Don'T think I admitted it.

[Angela]

I really, I really love that. But it makes sense. Like a sound bath versus a bath of sounds. Right? Like, I get it.

[Amanda]

No, it doesn't make sense. It's bad. I just didn't. I wasn't. Woo woo enough.

[Angela]

God, that's so funny.

[Shane]

I also think every time I have to go somewhere that requires a bathing suit, I like, bring the bathing suit. Like, I wear normal driving around clothes.

[Amanda]

No. Oh, you're one of those smart. Yeah.

[Shane]

What are those? What does that mean? I don't know.

[Angela]

There's just, there's. There's different types of people. Right? There's like, there's a lot of people.

[Amanda]

Pool party. They're like, can I change and put.

[Angela]

My suit on and I will go to the bathroom.

[Amanda]

Yep.

[Angela]

Versus, like a lot of. I would say, like, I don't want to gender. Nothing wrong with it. Like.

[Amanda]

No.

[Shane]

I'm just one of those. It's fine.

[Angela]

I do think in women's fashion they are, they are like drilling us to make it like a outfit matches.

[Shane]

But you might have like a sarong or something.

[Angela]

Exactly. It's like, here's my thing on top of it.

[Amanda]

Yeah, exactly.

[Shane]

If I just have like knee length board shorts or whatever. Like, I don't know. I don't know what the.

[Angela]

You're not wearing those as pants.

[Shane]

I'm not wearing those as pants. And like, it's not good to drive. You'll try to sit down and hit the gas and your pants will fly clean off. Like, it just doesn't work.

[Angela]

I'd say there's three types of people. There's the person that wears it as the look.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

There's the person that brings it in the bag. And then there's the third, which is the person who has a completely different outfit on.

[Amanda]

Yep.

[Angela]

Takes off the romper and then suddenly the bikini's there. They wore it as underwear.

[Amanda]

They wore it as underwear.

[Shane]

So. So the sarong is different because it is also meant for pool life. Whereas the romper is just like, what are you doing?

[Amanda]

Your outfit is the bathing suit.

[Shane]

Okay.

[Amanda]

Or the bathing suit is the underwear underneath a different style of outfit that's not like the outfit. Outfit. Or you put.

[Angela]

Yeah. Because they sell like a lot of dresses that are meant for Over a bathing suit.

[Shane]

Yeah, got it. Okay.

[Angela]

Of course, we need more like that, right? Yeah, we need more to be like, oh, no, this you can't wear to a party. You have to. Actually, it's like, meant for, like, going to the pool, but not the pool.

[Amanda]

Wear the right shoes.

[Shane]

Feminine jeans don't have pockets, so they can sell you a purse. It's that kind of stuff.

[Amanda]

Yeah, Yeah. I hate pants without pockets.

[Shane]

Yeah. So you have to buy a purse.

[Amanda]

Wow.

[Angela]

Please feel free to text me notes throughout my interim host.

[Amanda]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Shane was like, if you ever. You don't want to, like, message us anytime. And I was like, yeah, whatever.

[Angela]

Maybe I'll call you and be like, am I doing okay? Or you could. I can get you in my ear.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Amanda]

Could you imagine if I'm in your ear the whole time?

[Angela]

That's what that is. I go, what is that?

[Amanda]

And Shane's like, hey, why do you have that massive thing in your ear connected to, like, a box down in your pocket?

[Shane]

No reason. It's like. It's like one of those things where someone in a sitcom needs help with a date date. Except it's now SM mouth.

[Amanda]

That's so true.

[Shane]

Boom. Boom.

[Amanda]

Guys, don't worry. I will be there to support you from afar. Shane will also take care of you. I cannot believe I'm leaving. I feel very bitter. It's very bittersweet for me. I feel very sad about it, but I also feel like it's okay, you guys.

[Angela]

You're gonna come back with won't forget me, right?

[Shane]

Yes.

[Angela]

You're gonna come back with so many stories. Like babing suit. You're gonna be like, wait till you hear about this.

[Amanda]

Like, baby had a blow up out.

[Angela]

Yeah, there you go.

[Amanda]

And not a party. Like a blowout.

[Shane]

Like a Brazilian blowout where the poop reaches. Oh, like they Tony hawked it.

[Angela]

Yeah, there you go.

[Amanda]

So, guys, I'm so excited because Damien and Angela are going to, you know, be. Be your little guest hosts. They are going to take over. They are going to shake it up and then I would be back and.

[Shane]

We'Re just keeping the seat warm for you.

[Amanda]

Yeah, you're warming my seat warm in your seat warm. Thanks so much. And you guys can use the bouncy ball while I'm gone. I was bouncing on this ball and Shane was like, that looks fun.

[Angela]

I was like, it does look amazing.

[Shane]

So final hot take for me. We need the ones with the handles from when we were kids. The, like, bouncy ball. Oh, my God. That's how we need to get around.

[Amanda]

The office where you would have, like, races and that.

[Angela]

That felt more responsible, to be honest.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Angela]

Cuz you know where you're, like, kind of going.

[Shane]

Yeah. It's like you're not going to hop on a horse without, like, a. A bridle.

[Amanda]

Like, take a bouncy ball with handles. Feels more responsible.

[Angela]

Love you guys. Hot take. You can end a video whenever you want. I started to do it during smosh games.

[Amanda]

Bye. Oh, that's another thing about Smash Mouth is you literally can end it whenever you want. We're going to do it right here, and we're going to say bye.

[Shane]

I pitched that. We don't end videos anymore. One of us just gets up and leaves and then.

[Angela]

Oh, that's good too.

[Amanda]

That's good.

[Angela]

Perfect.

[Amanda]

Good idea. You hit my ball.
