Don't you wish you could do that in real life?
Amanda
Don't you wish?
Courtney Miller
Don't you age size?
Amanda
Don't you. Do you wish?
Courtney Miller
I wish.
Amanda
Okay.
Courtney Miller
I have so much to say about that.
Shane
All right. No, save it.
Amanda
No, no, babe, literally. Okay, babe, literally, save it.
Shane
No, let's save it for the paw.
Amanda
No, babe, save it.
Shane
Let's save it for the paw.
Amanda
I literally have so much to say about that. Babe, save it.
Courtney Miller
I was referring.
Shane
I liter so much to say. Hi, welcome to Smoshmouth. I'm Shane.
Amanda
And I'm Amanda. And we have a wonderful guest with us today, Courtney Miller. Hi.
Courtney Miller
Couldn't keep it together for 10 seconds.
Amanda
Court just had an outburst of laughter, and we will not explain why.
Shane
We will explain later.
Amanda
Her chance, maybe.
Courtney Miller
No. Okay. Okay. For the record, this is all recorded, by the way, I made a joke about size. I was like, I have so much to say about that. But I made about my boobs.
Shane
Okay, let's give the full context.
Courtney Miller
Sure.
Shane
Guys, later in this episode, we're gonna be doing some tongue twisters from our teleprompter, which we have. And fun fact. When we use the teleprompter, we use an Xbox controller to move up and down on the teleprompter.
Courtney Miller
So cool. It's so fun.
Shane
And if you move the stick left and right, it adjusts the size of the text on screen, and Courtney then turns to both of us and goes, don't you wish you could do that in real life? Adjust size. And then Amanda's like, yeah. And then you said, I have a lot to say about that.
Amanda
Ye. And then we both looked at you, and then we.
Shane
And I looked inward.
Amanda
You looked inward, and everything went inward.
Courtney Miller
Oh.
Shane
Oh.
Amanda
Whoa. And that's Smoshmouth for you guys.
Shane
Welcome to Smash Mouth. We don't mess around over here.
Amanda
No, clearly.
Shane
No, look, hosting a podcast, it's crazy stuff. Which brings us to Courtney. Courtney, you have a podcast.
Amanda
I do. Oh, my God.
Courtney Miller
Yeah.
Shane
It's like a.
Amanda
Are you labeling it as a podcast?
Courtney Miller
It's. Yeah. I mean, it's a show because there is so much podcast. We talk a lot about the Internet. So this show that I have is called URL. It just came out when we're recording this this week. And, yeah, it's called URL because it's talking about our identity, which a URL. He didn't know. I actually used to know what it stood for. It's, like, uniform.
Amanda
Yeah. What does this stand for?
Courtney Miller
And. But it's basically the ID of a website. And we're talking about how websites, computer stuff, online stuff makes up our identity so much. And so we watch Tiktoks together. I get to look at my guests for you pages, and we talk about Internet lore and what makes us us.
Amanda
It's so good because I watched you and Angela's episode and I was getting very nostalgic over all the Tumblr conversation. Cause I would write a blog on Tumblr and I tried to search for it. I can't find it anymore. But I would write a full blog, Tumblr. It was like my thing with pictures of everything. But I didn't know you could message on Tumblr.
Courtney Miller
Yes, you can.
Amanda
Like, I know you, like, got broken up with on Tumblr.
Courtney Miller
No spoilers.
Amanda
If you haven't watched the first episode, there's probably might be a second one that's coming out as this comes out, but it's on the smash alike channel. It is so good. The set is so good. I don't know.
Shane
It's such a sick.
Amanda
It tickles my brain.
Shane
The fact that they got one of those classic Macs is. Oh, my God. The best.
Amanda
Remember, you got to choose the color of the back of the Mac.
Shane
I know.
Courtney Miller
Okay. Yeah. So stay tuned. I think that'll be our third episode that comes out with Grace Helbig.
Amanda
Oh, my God.
Courtney Miller
Which is incredible. It's so cool to sit down with such a legend. And she's so funny. Thank you. I was hoping that the set would be like a brain scratching, nostalgic Y2K vibe.
Amanda
It's. It is. It gives me like sleepover vibes, but also like cool girl office vibes. And like, you know the telephone that was like. You could see through the telephone.
Courtney Miller
Yes, we have one.
Shane
Yeah.
Courtney Miller
Guys, our art department's incredible.
Shane
I love it. And they. They really went hard with that set.
Courtney Miller
They. They did not hold back. They surprise us every time. It's incredible. We were talking about boobs, okay. No, you were talking about.
Shane
What you were talking about with adjusting size is boobs.
Amanda
I don't.
Shane
So you wish. If you.
Amanda
Okay.
Courtney Miller
I just have this running thing that. It's so frustrating. Why? I can tell my brain can just tell my lungs to breathe. Right. Why can't my brain tell my boobs to grow more? More.
Amanda
This is so. This feels very nostalgic. I never experienced this because they just kept growing and I was like, stop.
Courtney Miller
See?
Amanda
Can your brain get a stress stop. You know, you know, there's this movie now and then you guys probably don't know.
Courtney Miller
I love that movie, the taping, the girl.
Amanda
Is it Christina Ricci?
Shane
What movie are you talking about?
Amanda
Is it Christina Richie?
Courtney Miller
Now and Then?
Shane
Oh, now and Then.
Amanda
Is it Christina Ricci?
Courtney Miller
Have you not seen now and Then?
Shane
Okay.
Amanda
Oh, you're gonna have a night where she's gonna show you honey. And she wraps her boobs twice because she's like. Doesn't want the attention. I'm like, that was me. That was literally me.
Courtney Miller
It was her duct tape.
Amanda
And then I stopped and I was like, meh. And now I love it. It's great. But yeah, so I guess if you want this. I'm so sorry I brought it back up.
Courtney Miller
I'm so sorry. I think it's hilarious. But y. So excited to get you guys on that show eventually. And yeah, it's. It's. It's a show, but it is gonna be. It is on Spotify, so if you want to listen to it as a podcast, you could do that too.
Amanda
Good pivot.
Courtney Miller
Thanks. Thanks.
Amanda
That was really good.
Courtney Miller
Yeah.
Shane
You guys were cooking on that show for so long.
Amanda
Yeah.
Courtney Miller
Yeah. I feel secret for like, nine months.
Shane
It's crazy how long ago we started discussing it. This is a big change because it switches over from Anthony's Anthony Padilla channel to Smash Alike.
Amanda
Yep.
Shane
And yours is the first show, so I think they, you know, it's a big deal.
Courtney Miller
Yeah.
Shane
You're leading that channel now.
Courtney Miller
Yeah. In the past, like, a big change like that, I feel like, wouldn't be met with such a positive response that I did get, like, everyone seemed really excited. People thought the name was cool. We were like, oh, boy. Are they gonna like the name? Are they gonna, like, Smash a lot? We were. We. We literally not. I say we just. Cuz I was like, in the room. But I, like, have nothing to do with that process. I would, like, pitch stupid ideas. But, like, we thought for so long what to call the channel. And Smosh for, like, was one of the first. And then we tried to think for so long, and they're like, why are we overthinking this?
Amanda
Do you have one that. That was like, a close contender.
Courtney Miller
We were, like, talking about Smosh like, because press, you know, it's in press alike. So we're talking about, like, oh, well, this is kind of like YouTube journalism, or it's as close as Smosh has gotten to YouTube journalism. But, like, Press felt like it was really sequestering us into one area. And that's why we like Smosh Alike, because it's like, it doesn't make us bog down to one thing, you know? Yeah, I'm trying to think. I don't think there was anything really cool. I think we had, like, a bunch of random, weird ones.
Shane
I pitched a Smosh for Men.
Amanda
Ew, you're gross.
Courtney Miller
Smosh for men.
Amanda
Everything.
Courtney Miller
You know, like. You know, like, smosh for men.
Shane
Smosh for men.
Amanda
And it looks like a. Like a razor company, like, logo, type of. What is this even?
Courtney Miller
Oh, yeah.
Amanda
Smosh for Men. And it's only you guys on the channel.
Courtney Miller
Dudes. Incredible.
Amanda
What is dude?
Shane
I don't actually know. No, I was. I was saying this. I was saying this recently how when you add for men at the end of any product, it's so funny. Anything is funny.
Amanda
So bad.
Shane
It's like, oh, shampoo for men. It's just. But these things exist, right, Dude, Wipes exist. It's just like, wipes for men. It's like, what. What makes them different?
Amanda
Marketing thing to, like, be like, oh, I have to get thing.
Shane
It's like, I love it. Every time I see it, I laugh.
Amanda
Shampoo for men.
Shane
Shampoo for men. Biscuits for men.
Amanda
What do those look like?
Shane
I don't know. That's what's funny.
Courtney Miller
Socks for men.
Shane
Socks for men. Huge biscuits.
Amanda
Massive biscuits.
Courtney Miller
The biscuits shaped like a rack.
Amanda
Yeah. Big. Which we wish you. No, I didn't say that.
Courtney Miller
Please do that.
Amanda
Boop, boop. We wish you could just get there.
Shane
That is not.
Courtney Miller
I will not go there.
Amanda
Had to bring it back because that's what I do. I like to torture Shane whenever I can. They create that.
Shane
And you see guys in the corner just, like, moving the controller. Just like, whoa.
Amanda
Whoa. Where's it gonna fit? Where's it gonna fit? None of my pants are gonna work.
Shane
Damn it. None of my pants are gonna work. Pants for men.
Amanda
Big ones.
Shane
Big, big pants. Jesus Christ.
Amanda
We're awful human beings.
Courtney Miller
Oh, my God. Okay, he's crying.
Amanda
Chance. Been crying all day.
Shane
And we just recorded the try not to laugh episode with Chancellor crying in that.
Amanda
Crying for men.
Shane
Crying for men. Movies for men.
Amanda
Movies for men.
Courtney Miller
It's so. Okay, this. I can't believe people search this and fall for this. Because saying something for men, it sounds like you are inadequate to have a thing that is not for you.
Amanda
Like, exactly.
Courtney Miller
It's not that it's emasculating, but it's like, oh. Like, it sounds like, oh, you're not quite tall enough for this roller coaster, but here's this one for you. Like, that's how it sounds in my head, that's true.
Amanda
Movies for men. Like, what would that be? You with a dog with like a military outfit on? Like, I don't know, seat belts for men?
Shane
No shit. Like, when it is, like, when it is like shampoo and conditioner for men. That's where I really laugh. I'm like, I'm pretty sure it's just the same shirt. It's the same stuff. It's just labeled differently.
Amanda
That's probably because you guys have more dandruff.
Shane
That's probably why they do it more messed up. Oh, God. Also tactical. If you add tactical before stuff.
Amanda
Oh my God. It's like, oh, yeah.
Courtney Miller
Tactical.
Shane
Tactical shampoo.
Courtney Miller
Oh, my gosh. I. I only buy at the grocery store. Tactical tampons. That's all I buy.
Amanda
Oh, my God.
Courtney Miller
They have.
Amanda
They have a full strap that goes.
Courtney Miller
They have.
Shane
And you're like this. You're like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Amanda
If I lift one leg up, you're like, woo.
Courtney Miller
If I fall out of a plane, I open my legs.
Shane
The technical shampoo is a fucking parachute.
Amanda
It's only when you're fucking skydiving or like rolling in the ground. Can you wear these tampons?
Shane
Rolling in the ground. Rolling in the ground. Oh, my God.
Amanda
This episode is brought to you by zocdoc. Shane, you got a little something on your face.
Shane
I got something on my face? Yeah.
Amanda
You should go see a doctor.
Shane
I need to see a doctor? Yes. About what's on my face?
Amanda
Your mustache.
Shane
Oh, boy. Well, if I need to go see a doctor, I think I know what to do. Should I do Zoc Doc?
Amanda
You should do Zoc Doc, obviously. It's so easy. It's so simple. ZocDoc is a free app and website where you can search and compare high quality in network doctors and click to instantly book an appointment.
Shane
That is true. And I have used ZocDoc and I was amazed at how simple it was. You know, I had delayed making a doctor's appointment for so long and a lot of that was because I thought it was just gonna be too complicated to do. But Zocdoc streamlines it. I was amazed at how simple it was, how fast and easy it was. I could see appointments in the next 24 to 72 hours. Even I was able to book an appointment right away with a doctor under my insurance. It was awesome.
Amanda
Yeah, if I needed a doctor, I would definitely use ZocDoc. Stop putting off those doctor's appointments and go to ZocDoc.comSmoShMouth to find and instantly book a top rated doctor today. That's ZocDoc.comsmoShMouth ZocDoc.comsmoshMouth Back to the show. Okay, let's go.
Courtney Miller
I hope we can use that.
Shane
Can we please use that take? Can we please. Anyways, you're a host of a show now. The creator of this episode, I kind of partially thought of because you were talking about, like, oh, I want to be more clear with my speaking and stuff.
Courtney Miller
Yeah, yeah. When we did. What was it? Media training recently, I was like, I want to get better at how to talk good. Like annunciating.
Shane
Talking for men.
Courtney Miller
Talking for men.
Amanda
God. And it's just this nice. Hey, all right, all right. Yeah, I'm listening.
Shane
So we thought it'd be fun to do some tongue twisters to practice.
Amanda
Yeah. To really help you speak good is tongue twisters. That's a perfect way to practice.
Shane
Absolutely.
Courtney Miller
Flex those tongue muscles that I can't. Just make my brain make my tongue better.
Shane
Adjusting this to make my tongue bigger.
Amanda
I'm not gonna say anything. I'm not gonna say anything.
Shane
Yeah, don't say you nasty girl.
Amanda
I'm a nasty girl. And also, I don't think I've done a tongue twister. Like Sally sells seashells by the seashells.
Shane
You weren't showing those back when you worked.
Amanda
I did.
Shane
Were.
Amanda
When I did what?
Shane
Channel News. When you're doing news.
Courtney Miller
When you were doing News channel.
Amanda
I didn't do tongue twisters.
Shane
Wait, you didn't do, like, warm up, like.
Amanda
Oh, we know. I never warmed up like that.
Shane
New York.
Courtney Miller
No.
Amanda
She had a brown cow.
Courtney Miller
Yeah, you were Mexican Salsa. Yes.
Amanda
Yes. That's exactly what I was doing. Salsa. Yeah.
Shane
So you just would get on camera and you start speaking.
Amanda
Well, remember that? I did a tape. I was never an actual. But you know what I used to do is run the teleprompter. That was.
Shane
You were running the teleprompter?
Courtney Miller
Did you have a controller?
Amanda
I had. It was very fucking old school. It was channel seven. I had a big thing and I. But I had to sit in the booth with the editor, the director, like, everyone while they were watching it there. And I was the teleprompter. And let me tell you, I had a very important job because if I fucked up the teleprompter, I fucked.
Shane
There was no news that day.
Amanda
No, literally. And the anchors were like, they couldn't continue. Improv was not their strong suit.
Shane
Oh, yeah, of course.
Amanda
All they were like, they would. And then they would Go. If I was going too slow.
Courtney Miller
Oh, God. And they'd be like, I couldn't. I would.
Amanda
And the director like, what the are you doing?
Shane
Go.
Amanda
I would get yelled at constantly.
Shane
I never thought about a local news channel director. Like, they have a director.
Amanda
So they have direct the whole. They direct the whole show.
Shane
Wow.
Amanda
They direct the whole segment. So they look it over. It's in this thing, this program called Avid. They look it over, and they literally look at all the segments, and they. They move them to, like, be fun segments. And then they put the entertainment spot and then the sports spot, and then if. But the thing is, all the writers are writing as the news reports going, right? So they're actively putting it in. And then they're up there and they're going, Cam 1, Cam 2, Cam 1, Cam 3. Can we cut? Can we swipe to Cam 4? Cam 1, Cam 2. That's what they're doing the whole time.
Shane
I can't imagine.
Amanda
And they have their shit and they're ready. But they will yell at the teleprompter, because I had one little turny thing, not an Xbox, and if I fucking turned it just a little bit fucked up, it went a little too fast. And then I had to scroll back. And the anchors, they were like, well, would you ever.
Courtney Miller
Would you ever have to sneeze?
Amanda
I have sneezed. And they made fun of me a lot because they said I sneezed sounded very sexual. I'd be like. And they were like, jesus Christ.
Courtney Miller
All these men in a dark room.
Amanda
No, there's women, too. It was mainly the editor woman. She was like, my God, your sneeze sounds like sex.
Shane
She's like this big woman was fucking Sarah Christ.
Amanda
Oh. People who work in news are Sarah Christ adjacent. Like, they are.
Shane
They're all mean. Like, I don't mean this necessarily as an insult, but it's a mean industry of, like. Yeah, there is no nonsense.
Amanda
And they're night people. They're all. They've all been up all night long. Millions cups of coffee. They're just same jeans and boots. Like, I don't. They're going out. Outfit is the jeans and boots with, like, a different blouse.
Shane
That is an industry that I have. I've never had any desire to be. I would not survive.
Amanda
But it's so, so fun.
Shane
It's so really.
Amanda
I mean, I think I said this, but the Celtics player, Rajon Rondo. What's his name?
Shane
Rajon.
Amanda
Rajon Rondo. His sister diamond was. She worked with me, too.
Shane
Oh, wow.
Amanda
And she Was like, what is this fucking place? I know news sounds sp. Sparkly, but inside.
Shane
Oh, it's. That's the same with every. Like, any thing you're watching on TV in real life, it is not what.
Amanda
You think it is sparkly at all.
Shane
Like working on tv, it's like it's the inside of a Home Depot that you're basically working.
Amanda
Yes.
Shane
That's what a studio looks like and smells like. And it's just a bunch of. A bunch of dudes running around. I mean, it's the grip, guys.
Amanda
Like, it's literally.
Shane
And it's chaos and it's. People are. There's. They're gonna be short with you. They're gonna be blunt with you. It's not nice.
Amanda
And they're old school. Yeah, there. There's people who've been working in that industry for over 30 years. And same with the news. They are old school.
Courtney Miller
I've always been so captivated by the news voice and like the cadence and tone and. And like.
Amanda
Oh, yeah, Yeah.
Shane
I wonder, like, what the logic.
Amanda
Specific.
Shane
I know. So I learned that back in like the 20s and stuff. You know how it's like they used to talk like this.
Amanda
Yeah.
Shane
It was because on the radio. Low voices would not pick up in the. In the old school radio. So they would on purpose. It's not like people sounded like that back then on the radio. They would do that so that it would go above.
Amanda
That makes sense.
Shane
So you could hear it more clearly on the radio.
Amanda
Yeah, like, that makes sense.
Shane
I think that's the logic behind it. That's exactly new with newscasters. I. Yeah, they.
Amanda
Today.
Shane
Because they don't sound like that.
Amanda
How.
Shane
How many newscasters on camera would sound like that, but then off camera sounded completely different?
Amanda
Totally different.
Courtney Miller
Everybody, I think everybody.
Amanda
But they were still kind of in very. Almost everybody. They were. They were way more like, okay, and here we go. And it feels like you have to do something like this. I love to keep them in. Okay. And puppies.
Courtney Miller
We should do that voice for the tongue twisters today.
Amanda
It's all a change. Like, when you're telling a serious story, you have to show what you're telling when you're telling a funny story. Oh, and da, da, da, da, da.
Courtney Miller
Why weren't you at anger?
Amanda
It's so.
Shane
You would have crushed.
Amanda
It would have taken years. That's honestly why I didn't pursue it.
Shane
Do you think you. Okay, so how old were you when you were doing that?
Amanda
21, 22.
Shane
I wonder if. Do you think, like, by now, like, you pursued this career, and you're in this. You're at where you're at in the. Do you think you could have been a newscaster by now?
Amanda
Definitely, yeah. Just, Just. Just simply because of, like.
Shane
Like, on a local news, you know.
Amanda
The years of working. Yeah, but for five years, you have to be, like, in Arkansas with just your camera set.
Shane
Anyways, dude, what would. If you had the opportunity to be, like, a Dateline host, like, would that. Would that be like.
Courtney Miller
I would love to do that.
Shane
You had the opportunity.
Courtney Miller
I love the guy who does the crazy start to the show, and he's in a helicopter in a freaking car, and he goes, let's get going. And then what does he say?
Shane
Is that America's Most Wanted, maybe?
Amanda
I think so.
Courtney Miller
Always. There's a whole compilation where he goes, get ready. So buckle up. And the car, like, speeds off. Or he's literally in a helicopter. He's like, the. Buckle up. And then the helicopter flies away from the camera.
Amanda
So good.
Courtney Miller
That's Hollywood.
Amanda
That's so good.
Shane
That's Hollywood, baby. America. That's like Jeff Probst at the end.
Amanda
I was just going to say, cuts.
Shane
To the jungle and gets in a helicopter and dives out of the helicopter, gets in a plane.
Amanda
Jeff sees it. 45 of Survivor.
Courtney Miller
God, I love that. First serves C. Oh, he does.
Shane
Yeah.
Amanda
And he knows it.
Courtney Miller
He serves seashells by the seashore, if you know what I'm saying.
Amanda
Yeah, he does tongue twisters. But, yeah, I would definitely love to be a Dateline.
Shane
Oh, dude.
Amanda
I mean, the back of my phone is literally Keith Morrison. A picture of Keith Morrison going, it was a beautiful day.
Courtney Miller
Really?
Amanda
Or was it really?
Courtney Miller
Where is that?
Shane
Was it. My phone's out there, you know, like, he had to do something like Dateline.
Amanda
He. They now have Dateline commercials that are like. And you can get Dateline Premium plus with. With all the extra content. He goes, can you? Yes, actually, you can.
Shane
There's a. It's like he's using his subscription service for just Dateline.
Amanda
Yeah, I'm debating getting it.
Courtney Miller
I want to go have these.
Amanda
Are you dead serious? Are you into that shit? I thought you don't like it.
Shane
I should get that. You know what?
Amanda
I don't know if you should do it.
Shane
I should get that for my mom. I feel like my mom would love that. My mom loves just the most horrible. Like, it is crime stuff.
Amanda
It is horrible.
Shane
Like, growing up, she was always just watching, like, horrible true crime. And I'd, like, walk out and I'd like, catch like 10 minutes of something. I'd be like, well, that's horrible.
Amanda
Yep.
Shane
So it was horrifying thing I've ever heard. And then she'd find out I watched like a rated R movie. And she's like, you can't watch that. I'm like, what you have on the TV is nightmare fuel.
Amanda
Nightmare.
Shane
Like you're watching horrible stuff.
Amanda
Me and your mom should hang out.
Courtney Miller
Oh, yeah.
Shane
She is definitely up to date on all the other. All the crime stuff.
Courtney Miller
She loves you. She talks about you. She'd be talking about you. Yes. She loves you.
Shane
She thinks you're very fun.
Amanda
Oh, my God. I'm honored.
Courtney Miller
Everybody in my life also specifically says, like, they love you. What? You have such an energy that is very appealing.
Amanda
That's very sweet. We should all hang it.
Courtney Miller
I don't know why I laughed at all.
Amanda
Sucks the wood off the side.
Courtney Miller
I chugged my coffee right before.
Amanda
And we're all like, okay, let's get into those tongue twisters, shall we?
Shane
I'm sorry, do we want to.
Amanda
Let's do newsboys first.
Courtney Miller
News voice.
Shane
All right. I will do my news voice. I think this would be my news voice.
Courtney Miller
Oh, yeah, I think this would be my news voice.
Amanda
You would slay.
Shane
You're going a little AI in that.
Courtney Miller
I think this will be my news voice.
Amanda
That's cool. Also, every news anchor is out of their fucking mind.
Shane
So I'm gonna do the auto scroll, even though I think I might move too fast for it.
Amanda
You want me to scroll it for you? No, he's professional. She's a professional. No, no, no, it's fine. He wants control. He wants control.
Courtney Miller
He wants control for men.
Shane
Control for. I think that's already, unfortunately, too much of a thing.
Amanda
All right, all right.
Shane
Here we go. I'm going to start with the classic. We're starting with Peter Piper the. The classic.
Amanda
Yeah.
Shane
All right.
Courtney Miller
Okay. Let's go, King.
Shane
Welcome to Channel 5 News. Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked. If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where the peck. Pickled peppers. Peter Piper picked.
Courtney Miller
Yeah, yeah, kind of.
Shane
Okay, I kind of messed up. Let me take that again. Let me take that again. It moved a little. It moved. It moved faster than I thought it was going to be moving.
Amanda
Yeah, we should have that happen.
Shane
Take two.
Amanda
Ok, roll it back.
Courtney Miller
You can't. It's live. The news is already.
Shane
Not yet.
Amanda
Now. Now. This is like a scary story.
Shane
Okay, coming up, Peter Piper picked a peck of Pickled peppers. Peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked. If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?
Amanda
Wow. It's a scary story, but you don't give a fuck.
Shane
I'm moving too fast. If I was. If I was telling a story that's awful, I'd be like, tragic news today. As this came, I'm going, Tom Brokaw. I think I'm just gonna be talking, bro. Call the rest of the. I think it's okay. Tongue twister needs to be fast.
Amanda
You crushed that.
Courtney Miller

What happens if a. If a newscaster cuz like that, you have to be doing the news at that time. You can't go, what if it's like you have diarrhea?
Amanda
You have to hold it.
Shane
You just have to put a box.
Amanda
If you are like throwing up or something, you can go off and the other anchor will take over.
Shane
Okay. Or.
Amanda
Or there might be another anchor. There's usually not another anchor, but there could be a newscaster there.
Shane
It's like.
Amanda
And they will tap in, but they will. Usually they'll cut to a recording thing. A recorded thing.
Shane
Oh, got it.
Amanda
Yeah.
Shane
Okay. Did that help you get your head in the game.
Amanda
But you have to hold it.
Shane
Terrifying.
Courtney Miller

Amanda
It sounded really good.
Shane
It was really good. All right.
Courtney Miller
Good morning, Cincinnati. Peter Piper, you keep fucking it out.

Courtney Miller
You want to read some horny books to our audience?
Amanda

Amanda
You've done a really good job.
Shane
So much. And also just reading and processing it. I have moments now.
Amanda
Reddit stories helped you with that tongue twist.
Shane
This isn't good. This isn't good. Good. I have moments where I catch myself, like, zoning out while I'm reading.
Amanda
Whoa.
Shane
And I will read, like, paragraphs and I'll be like, I actually was zoned out. Sorry. I was like, thinking about something else and I read it all clearly and I'm like, that's nuts. And so there's times where people are like, oh, they missed like, this huge part of the story. I'm like, yeah, I zoned out a little bit on that one. Like, and I. I sometimes don't take it back. Or I.
Amanda
Like, that means you're zoning out on red stories.
Shane
I'm not zoned. It doesn't happen that often. Like, that's not. I'm not usually able.
Courtney Miller
Even if it does happen ones, it's cuz you've been. Sorry.
Shane
But it's just. It's more.
Courtney Miller
You're not using your shampoo.

Courtney Miller
Because you read it sometimes. You have like a couple episodes in a day. You're reading.
Shane
I'm reading. We've done like three episodes in a Day. So, like, by the, the third one, I can sometimes just kind of. It's more than I'm saying. It's crazy that I'm at this stage though. I never have been able to do that. But from doing it so much, I.
Amanda
Sometimes will read a whole page and go, I don't know what I said.
Shane
Reading all the time. I have to reread pages non stop.
Amanda
Are you reading your books out loud?
Shane
Can you imagine?
Courtney Miller
I wish.
Amanda
She's sleeping and you're like, I venture down to the mountain.
Courtney Miller
I wish. But I'm very surprised. I haven't, like, heard you talking in your sleep like a fake Reddit story that your dream conjured up.
Shane
I don't dream about Reddit stories too much. I never, I also don't remember any.
Courtney Miller
Of my dreams, you know. You don't remember most your dreams? Yeah.

And I remember turning it off. So I woke up, I turned it off, and I said, it's freaking awesome. No, I can fall asleep. I, I just, I can lay. If I'm like, I'm about to lay down in bed and I'm going to be gone.
Courtney Miller
I don't think you fall asleep. I think you die of.
