SPEAKER_08

Don't look under the internet.

SPEAKER_00

Starting out, recording.

SPEAKER_06

Are we recording? Yeah. Nice. Mouthful of goldfish. Welcome, everybody.

SPEAKER_04

We got mad. We got it done. We got Jason. Fuck you, man. We got me. We got all four of us. We got a podcast.

SPEAKER_02

Recipe. Complete.

SPEAKER_01

Four men and a soundboard.

SPEAKER_06

Miles apart.

SPEAKER_04

We're not gay.

SPEAKER_06

We got a fun one, a silly Billy for you all today. First off, no housekeeping for reasons you should all know by now. We did an episode last time about a man coming in an egg. And uh was it the greatest? No. Was it the worst? Yes. But today, we're not talking about a man coming in an egg. Instead, we're just talking about weird shit. Yeah, you know, honestly, I don't know that. So you don't know. Because today today's a bit of a roulette. We're gonna get into just some uh some YouTube oddities that we've all stumbled across. I really enjoy these episodes. I I love two of you, but specifically when Doug brings shit up. The last couple of times we've done this, Doug's just like, you ever see a thing about a lady who edits her own movie and it looks weird? Here you fucking go.

SPEAKER_01

Like I don't know if I can I don't even know if I can compete with that episode, to be honest with you. I I don't I'm we'll see. We'll see what happens.

SPEAKER_06

We shall see, but uh yeah, we're just gonna go over some weird YouTube stuff that we all found. Uh who wants to be you do a big starty on this?

SPEAKER_07

I can start if you want. I've got I have two of them. One of them is more of an expl, like one of them has any number of videos that we could go look through, and it's really up to how we would like to do that one. And the other one's just one video. It's a channel, but it's a video that I've picked from it that I think illustrates the entirety. You guys want to do a uh an explore, or do you want to do uh a video about jorts? Oh, jorts, absolutely. Is this Saturday shorts? It's the same guy who made Saturday shorts. Is it how to make jorts? It is how to make jorts.

SPEAKER_03

Yes, I love this video.

SPEAKER_00

I think I made a reference to this in the last episode, having absolutely no idea whatsoever that you were gonna cover this.

SPEAKER_03

That's great.

SPEAKER_00

We were talking about never nudes, and I was like, your Saturday shorts are your everyday shorts now. I had no idea you were gonna.

Brian David Gilbert’s Haunted Jorts

SPEAKER_07

Holy shit, I didn't even catch that. That's really fucking funny. Um, so yeah, let's talk, let's talk about jorts, boys. Um, so the video I found, it's by uh a guy named Brian David Gilbert. Um, if you haven't seen any of his stuff, I would highly recommend checking it out. It's all pretty fucking hysterical, it's very strange. It's it's like weird dark humor. Um, there's a he's got a whole bunch of videos, and all of them are kind of in the same vein. So this this video is just how to make jorts. And he starts off, it's just him sitting in a red turtleneck holding a cat, and he's um fellow about man of interest, I see. Absolutely. Um, he does he explains uh to himself that he's a jorts enthusiast, and you may have seen from him from his other videos, such as Saturday Shorts, uh, or dreams, J-R-E-A-M-S, or Jort Dreams. Um, so he's got a couple other Jorts videos, but this is how you actually make them. And it started with him addressing some emails, and he goes, you know what, I'm just gonna show you what the journey's like to making jorts. And first, he's very clear, he explains you cannot just buy any old jorts off the rack at any store. No, no, no, no. You need to make your own jorts out of jeans that you've lived in and and loved in, unfortunately. He says that you definitely want to avoid committing the the biggest sadness of all time, which is a gene jorded before its time. Um, I jorded my jeans. I just jorded. Uh so he starts in my pants. He pulls out some jeans and he goes over the stories, had them for a while. Um, and he goes, You don't you want to make sure that you get down the right technique? And he goes, Make some a few practice passes with the scissors. It shows him just like pretending to cut the jeans above the jeans like six or seven times. And he's like, No, no, that wasn't the right one. No, okay, that was a little better. And he cuts his finger and some blood gets on the the jeans right as he's explaining. It is very important that you do not ever get any blood on the jorts for any reason at any time during any part of this process. Otherwise, you will face dire consequences. Should go ahead and take your jeans up for one last day, maybe go to the amusement park, go to the beach, sing a song. Um, you've got to respect your jeans. They've given you lots of service, so maybe serenade it with a song you've written for them. And so as he's washing it, he's washing jeans with a toothbrush, and you see like this red spot start to get bigger and bigger as you realize it's blood. And there's it pans back, and there's like blood all over the bathtub. It's like fucking everywhere. And he's just getting more and more panicked as he sees this these blood stains that just won't come out. But he's still talking in the background and narrating like how to make jorts. He then says, You need to make sure you listen to your genes because they're speaking to you. The words are very quiet, but the implications are loud. One day you may awake and the genes have spelled out their preferred jort length on uh on your wall or ceiling in an ancient an ancient dead language. It shows just that and it says cut just above the knee. Um it then cuts to him having like a staring contest with the jeans that are drying in the shower, and he's very visibly freaked out. And so he's staring, it's coming back and forth, and all of a sudden the jeans like they just move on their own. And he freaks out, he runs up, and he grabs him off the uh um off the rack, and he literally goes outside to out of his apartment into the hallway, and he throws him to what I think is like a an a dirty utility or like garbage chute or something, and it's still telling you like listen to your jeans, they'll tell you exactly what they want. And he goes to bed, and very finally we get to the last step, which is step two, to let you know. This is a two-step process. There's one like A through F, but then there's two, which is just simply fear. And he wakes up, he hears a door opening, and it's nighttime, and he looks into his kitchen area and he sees nothing, sees nothing, and then all of a sudden he sees like this dark shadowed silhouette of pants like running across his living room. He like freaks the fuck out and runs back inside. And finally, it is time to cut your jorts. So go ahead and cut them. Finally over. That's it, huh? Your journey to Jordan, your jordaning has been complete.

SPEAKER_02

Chat I jordaned. We're jorting. Jordan Jordan Jordan. Edward Edward Howard Jordan. Edward Jordy Hands. Edward Jordy Hands.

Blood, Fear, And Jort Lore Escalate

SPEAKER_07

I need to see that visually. Um, but yeah, it's it's very weird, strange humor. This guy has a lot of different videos. There's another one that I've seen by him. Um, that's it's entitled it it reads like a fucking spam link, and it just says, earn twenty thousand dollars every month by being your own boss. And like it he tries to fake it, and then you realize he's been lured out into the forest where he's been replaced by like some homunculus of a human, and that's the person that's talking to you, and he's just trying to suck you into his pyramid scheme so they can create more of these fucking things. It's very strange. Um, did we ever decide are we just doing all of them at once, or do we want to split them up? Yeah, knock them out. Do you think go for it? Okay. Um, the other one that the other channel that uh I wanted to talk about is it's uh it's a guy named William Osman. And I love William Osman. He makes fun. Dude, this guy's this guy's fucking great. I've never heard of him before his second channel is my favorite, William Osman too. Yeah, I see. He's got a couple of different different channels. I'm just I just wanted to focus on this one because it's his main one. Um, now this guy he solves problems that don't exist um through engineering. And so he's an engineer by trade. So he worked at NASA. Oh shit, I didn't know he worked at NASA. Uh 170 videos, and they're all very strange. Um, one of the ones that I picked was uh he found a it was just based on an image that he found of baked beans coming out of a Reese's peanut butter cup. And so he decided to uh he attempts to make gourmet bean cups, and he like he buys different types of beans to see which ones will work best, and he tries baking these chocolate Reese's cups with beans inside, he's refried beans, pinto beans, lima beans, and then two different types of baked beans for his tests. And he actually got a hold of the guy that put that uh helped make this image kind of known to him and invited him to come like help him out with it. And so they bake these bean cups and they cut into it, and at the end of his they're both just like gagging because it's just fucking, it looks absolutely disgusting. Um there's another video where he uh he uh what does he do? He builds a uh a squirrel car so he can spy on other squirrels.

SPEAKER_06

Um it's this is the type of shit where if I had money, I would be doing these things.

SPEAKER_07

Oh hell yeah. This looks fucking it's it's fucking fantastic. Like the the creativity alone is insane, but it's just so stupid. Like you guys were saying, the the watermelon he makes a watermelon hamburger thing. Um it's oh my god, it looks fucking disgusting. And it's just these problems that don't need to be solved at all. Like he trains his cat to put out fires through a like a button board.

SPEAKER_01

Um wait, did he make a thing that sucks fire out of a house?

SPEAKER_00

Yes, by removing all the oxygen.

SPEAKER_01

By removing a lot of the deoxygenator, right?

SPEAKER_07

Yes. Um he he sees which uh how how much a roomba can take by making it suck up like five gallons of pudding spread out over a floor. Um he makes a uh he designs an airplane that is meant to dump gravy on things.

SPEAKER_06

Um he designs a gun hat which what he works with um he he does a lot of videos with Alan Penn and the backyard scientist, and one of them that they all three worked on together was making a um a laser uh lawnmower that cuts lawn using lasers, and it goes about as well.

SPEAKER_00

I'm just imagining like a Resident Evil type scenario. You know what scene I'm talking about. Oh god.

SPEAKER_01

Think of how absolutely so legit though, just go and everything would be the same thing.

SPEAKER_06

They use that as they use that as reference because they their initial design doesn't work, so they're like, hey, in this movie, they do it in like a grid pattern, and that cuts things that dice things really well, so let's do that.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, they also do a they also do a laser haircut as well.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, they do a laser haircut too. Yep.

SPEAKER_07

There's a there's a whole section and a bunch of playlists specifically about laser experiments. I'm pretty sure they try to like barbecue meat with lasers at some point.

SPEAKER_06

Um, I know they I think he did the I think he did the video where he cooked a chicken by slapping it a bunch. I think he did that one.

SPEAKER_07

Okay, I knew somebody did that.

SPEAKER_01

Because there's that one too, actually.

SPEAKER_07

Is it you'd have to slap a chicken like 46,000 times or once go at like 10,000 miles an hour or something?

SPEAKER_00

Can you obliterate fertilize a chicken egg?

SPEAKER_01

Let's get them on those. Yes. I have sperm. I have egg.

SPEAKER_07

Um oh he makes a a laser-cut Vin Diesel ham and cheese sandwich. Basically, designs the it the bread looks like a portrait or uh like a bust of vin diesel after using lasers. You can have any sandwich you want as long as it's ham and cheese. Yeah. He tries to make a remote control for a dog, like you put it on the back of the dog, and you are uh like can then send it signals to do things, it does not work. Um but yeah, it's it's just a bunch of really cool. Oh, dude, it's it's a bunch of really cool engineering stuff. Like if you're interested in like gadgets and like little things that do cool stuff, but in a very pointless way, this is definitely a good channel for you.

SPEAKER_00

Now, this makes me lots of lasers. You can control a horse, right? Because you can ride a horse and you can make it turn and do shit. Could you build a contraption to stick on the back of a horse and make a remote control horse?

SPEAKER_07

That's you know, I think we should comment that. Maybe we'll do this but horse.

SPEAKER_01

Do this but self-driven horses, self-driven horses, automated horse horse.

SPEAKER_00

Just stick chat GBT on the back of a horse. See what it does.

SPEAKER_06

Tesla's new model, the model nay.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, he does. Did you guys ever watch uh Wallace and Gromit?

SPEAKER_01

Uh no. Does anyone know what I'm talking about when I say that? I know yep, the claymation show where the guy has the really funky teeth and he's from like fucking Scotland or Ireland or some shit, or the UK somewhere.

SPEAKER_07

I don't know. So he's an inventor, and the one the staple in that show, I grew up in a very British household, so I've seen like every episode of this fucking show. Um, but the big thing with him is he's an inventor and he tries to make his day easier, and he invents like basically a way to cook breakfast while he's getting out of bed or like whatever he does to do that. And it's like a jam launcher that times a spoonful of jam to be flung at his face, but the toast like pops up right in front of his face to block it, and then it hits and like falls down on his plate. He recreates that and it goes about as well as you can imagine. There's just fucking jelly everywhere. Yeah, it's it's this is a rabbit hole that you can fall down fucking it for hours, hours and hours and hours. There's just a ton of content, it's super interesting, and it's it's just silly. It's pretty broad, but please go check these guys out. They're fucking hilarious. So William Osman, and then uh the other one that I was the other guy I was telling you guys about was Brian David Gilbert. Both very funny.

SPEAKER_06

Brian!

unknown

Brian!

SPEAKER_06

All right, uh anyone else wanting to go next?

SPEAKER_00

Uh go anyway, my first channel. So I got two channels here that are very low view, very low subscriber count that I just happened upon.

SPEAKER_04

Oh yeah.

Lasers, Gravy Planes, And Squirrel Spycars

SPEAKER_00

So the first one is YouTube.com slash at rap god4106. Now, this is a channel with 28 subscribers and the most viewed video. Very murder text of them 150 actually 199 views. But here is the gist of this YouTube channel. For the most part, what you're gonna find when you go here is a lot of videos just titled Rap God underscore and then a number dot AVI. Now, if you open any of these, you're gonna the story remains the same for the most part. The first one is the entirety of Borette 2 condensed into 57 seconds while the fast part of Rap God just repeats over top of it. And that is that is legitimately the entire thing. Now you're gonna notice that there are a lot of lot of uh descriptions to these videos, and they are all in Russian. The first one, the description, is just the lyrics to the fast part of Rap God translated into Russian. Now the second one is a little less interesting. It's just a cow, same thing, and Rap God is playing. We got some Freddie Fazbear shit going on. We got uh I don't know how to describe the fourth one. The fourth one is like a thing. It's like a it's somebody wearing it's somebody wearing a costume with a very long neck and like a dress and dancing a rap god. Uh six is just a dude, seven is a two-legged horse that is running. Now if you translate if you translate uh so this is this is like a gif of a horse that with two legs is running. But if you translate the description, you get where is he going? Where's who going? Action without meaning. Solutions, without problems. I lead decisions to action. So you kinda get the idea. You kinda get the idea here, right? It's a bunch of rap god, it's a bunch of random shit over top of it. There's a video of a my of a kid playing Minecraft. Now, things change up. This is the la this is the last video on on the channel two years ago. And this one is called Dandong Car Wash Recruitment Tape. And if you take a gander at this, what you're gonna find is a like employee instructional video for a Chinese car wash called Dandong Car Wash. And it has the Chinese text replaced with English text. The first bit is Dandong Mobile GSM VEIP Club Car Wash Recruitment Video. And so it starts giving you instructions on working at Dandong Car Wash, vitalization of Dandong City, Leong Province, District, B Benjing Middle Road 94494C 5RR. Then you get a picture of a Nissan 240Z, amazing car, very good wash. And it starts giving you instructions. So first you need to know some rules, right? The first rule, of course, is be nice, especially to customers. Rule two wash car very well. Rule three is don't look in the basement. Rule four is enjoy occupation. Okay. And then rule five, there is nothing. And then we get a no signal screen. And then there is no one named Artem. And then there's just this creepy guy's face over a black background. That's it. Thank you for watching the video. So it's just like this like analog horror type car wash recruitment video thing. And that's really it. There's really no more explanation. Though I did appreciate some of the comments on some of the videos. So the car wash analog horror one has a comment with somebody who is basically me from any episode where we do analog horror. And it's one of those like copy pasta things where they've like shoved a bunch of emojis in after every sentence, and it says, OMG, the Chinese car wash training vid I just watched was totes unexpected. Instead of the typical instructional video, it had spooky analog horror theme that made me think I was watching a horror movie. The video began with eerie music and vintage footage of an abandoned car wash. And the entire the entire thing is basically an analog horror review, but it's written like Holly talking to Kevin in the office when she thinks that he It's mentally deficient. And then the other one that I wanted to point out is there is a video that is just a Chinese man pointing a gun at the screen while Rap God plays in the background. And the Russian the Russian in the description says the Chinese man is evil. Now, if you go to the comments from this one, the main channel has posted a comment in Chinese, Russian, and English, and it says, We apologize on behalf of the original owners of this channel for disgusting description. They have been executed.

unknown

Oh.

SPEAKER_00

What the fuck? And that's Rap God4106. That is a random ass channel.

SPEAKER_02

I love Rap God416. Bowser Bowser.

SPEAKER_00

Uh, and then the other one that I've got, I'm gonna be honest, I don't understand what's going on here, and I didn't put any effort into figuring it out. So I'm just gonna go over what happens in the first couple of videos. But this is another channel with 24 subscribers, and it's it's a it's an analog horror, maybe an ARG, I don't know. But it's called Luna Recordum Manifesto. That is L-U-N-A-R-E-C-O-R-D-U-M Manifesto. And if you don't know how to spell manifesto, take a step. So this is the typical analog horror format. There's tapes. This person found some tapes. There's tape one, two, three, and four. If you open the first one, um you get some instructions about the before bed protocol. So the first thing that you want to do is when the siren sounds, you want to shut all of the blinds in your house. Um, step two, you need to check the thermostat accordingly and refer to your manual if you're unsure of the appropriate level. And then step three, now is the time to retrieve your chosen offering and place it in the service reciprocal by your door. And while we're giving being given these instructions, there's just like stock footage of like the earth playing and babies and like a woman wearing a like fencing mask and then a woman suffocating in plastic. I'm really not sure. Um this, and then it's it keeps giving instructions, but the numbers don't match the number that's being said. But step four is to close the hatch, and then step five, you're supposed to listen carefully when the breathing stops. You're supposed to reopen the hatch of the service reciprocal. Step six, you consume the contents of the service reciprocal. Don't hesitate. Should the offering return cause harm to your body. And then off obviously, please refer to the section of your manual. Step seven, turn all the lights off and extinguish any ceremonial candles. Step eight. Ensure that your radio frequency transmitter matches your thermostat and subsequent subsequently the lunar record. Step nine. What? Complete your daily hygiene rituals. And then we get a video of a man brushing his teeth. And then place the corresponding signal as advised by the lunar record record manifesto at the foot of your bed. Step 10, get into bed, and ensure that all of your extremities are completely covered. Step 11. And then step 12, ignore the screams and the whispers, and don't open your eyes. And then step 13, which is also step 666, apparently. Don't leave your bed under any circumstances until sunrise when the siren sounds. And that's the before bedtime protocol. The second one opens with some Morse code, and the Morse code just translates to 002 Achus A E C A U S The Divine. Don't know. The rest of it is just numbers being spoken over black and white imagery of like televisions and the same lady in the fit fencing mask. And honestly, that this is where I gave up on trying to figure out what's going on here because I didn't really want to spend a whole lot of time really diving into it, and I don't know if any of it means anything. But if you're interested in a very little-known analog horror, maybe ARG type thing, fucking check this out.

SPEAKER_06

We'll make it a whole topic on an episode, and then Nightmine will do it for us, don't worry. But yeah, like I said, we already did one of the episodes. I don't want to talk about the Glendale archives or whatever it's called.

SPEAKER_02

We should kill him. We should. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

And my topic list has been there for months. That's all I'm saying.

Analog Horror: RapGod4106 Deep Dive

SPEAKER_00

But anyway, that's uh that yeah, 24 subscribers. Go check that out, maybe. What is it called again? Luna Recordum Manifesto.

SPEAKER_03

Recordum Manifesto. Luna.

SPEAKER_06

Luna. Alright. I'll go next because I want Doug to go last because his are always bangers.

SPEAKER_04

He's like down.

SPEAKER_06

You don't know that. Alright.

SPEAKER_04

His bar is very low.

SPEAKER_06

I got three that I want to talk about. But first one here, it's called My Therapy Buddy. Now. Oh God. What this thing is, uh it the YouTube channel itself is pretty small, lacklustre. Uh six videos, they're all very, very, very short. Uh, the first one, they start off pr relatively innocent. Essentially, what this thing is, is back in like the late 90s, this guy came up with this idea for like this plushie that you use for like that'll be used for like therapy and whatnot. In 2002, it kind of took off a little bit more. He has an Indiegogo page set up for this right now, too. Let me just read you a snippet from the Indiegogo page. MyTherapy Buddy was designed as a drug-free method for achieving behavioral modification or stress relief and has been used by thousands of people worldwide since 2002. MyTherapy Buddy is a transitional object and has been recommended by psychologists and other licensed mental health professionals for over 14 years. MyTherapy Buddy ultimately serves as a therapeutic invention or intervention used as an accessible, soothing, and comforting quote unquote person replacement for those who might need additional support in times of physic psychological or physical pain and suffering. Basically, it's just like a fucking it's it's an anxiety. It's it's it's a non-alive emotional support pet, is basically what this thing is. And yeah, it's a pet rock. And it's just like a gray, it's just a plain gray, it look it's it's the human from community, their mascot, the the the the human, it's that or if you think like I don't know, it's just a gray man, like it's kind of like a little just a it's kinda cute. I'm not gonna lie, he's kind of cute, but what's interesting to me is the YouTube channel. So the guy on here, uh the first video talks about his um his CBS TV contest, basically about how he uh aired like a commercial or something. I don't remember specifically what on CBS a long time ago. The second one is Jimmy Fallon Therapy Buddy Dance, and it's him dancing with this therapy buddy thing to a song that just goes Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Fallon. The next is says a Copel video for Streisand contest, and it's where the creator is like, hey, I don't know where else to post this, so I'm posting this on this YouTube channel, hoping it reaches Barbara Streisand. I saw you back in like the 80s, you signed this thing for me, and that was really cool of you. Um I had or actually this is way before the 80s, this is like 70s, I think. But then he's like, I have this menu from this dinner I went to that you are at. I I I know that you have a show coming up. I'm going to go to that show, and I'm gonna try to get your autograph. And it it doesn't, I don't think he's trying to be creepy, but it definitely comes off creepy. Oh, yeah. The next video is my favorite, and it's called My Therapy Buddy Celebrates Osama's demise. And it is my therapy buddy dressed in like military gear, and he's singing the guy, the the owner's singing a song like America won and everyone's free, Osama's dead as can be, and like other things like that. It is interesting to say the least. Um, and the other videos are pretty much similar, weird shit like that. But uh, if you look up my therapy buddy, this is the original. It's my therapy buddy with 14 subscribers and six videos. If you just search my therapy buddy on YouTube, you'll find like five or six other channels that are just people that are using their therapy buddy, it's not the actual guy. So make sure you're looking at the right one. Same type of content. Yeah, it's very, very weird. It's not like it's weird, but it's people like, oh yeah, this is my therapy buddy, he helps me, I take them along everywhere. One of them was a lady who was like pretending it was like a living thing in our house or something. So it's just I don't know if they're all interconnected or it's just crazy people that own these things, but probably people that it's like a legit product. Like I said, therapy. There's an there's an indie go-go for it. They he did have this. I think it I I I think it was like Shark Tank or something, but he did get on a TV show where he talked about like this is my upcoming, you know, thing. This is my therapy buddy, it's upcoming coming. I made it. He was on a thing in like the late 90s uh and early 2000s, like talking about it. So this isn't like nothing. This is like this guy's life. Maybe I should get to therapy. And it's it's maybe it's very interesting.

SPEAKER_00

I like how um it just looking at the YouTube channel, there's the first five videos were posted 14 years ago, and then the last video was posted five years after that one that just says everything is going to be alright, my therapy buddy, which makes me feel the vibe that I'm getting here is that things didn't go well in that five years.

SPEAKER_06

It's a and I I highly recommend everyone watch them. Like I said, they're like the videos are like maybe a minute long, some of them, others are like 15 seconds. Just go view it. My next channel is called Puppet Sun Sun. And what this is, it's some form of Asian, I want to say, thing. I think it's Japanese, um, because I think the website says it says it's Japanese, but it's got curvy letters.

SPEAKER_00

It seems but they're not cute like curvy. Yeah, Chinese letters are are more square, Japanese letters have curves, and Korean letters are cute and have lots of little circles.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I was gonna say they have lots of little circles in Korean. Easy giveaway. Interesting.

Luna Recordum Manifesto And ARG Vibes

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, okay. On face, so there are like there's 452 videos on this channel. This channel is 761,000 subscribers. Apparently, it's extremely popular over in uh Japan. Now, it looks innocent on its face. There's like one of the first videos said that it says how to say cho. This was uploaded yesterday. They upload frequently, people. There's another one that's just called Warm, another one called Birthday Song. Like they all seem pretty innocent. And when you click on one and you actually listen to it, I I don't know what's happening here. So it'll show two puppets. If you're an audio listener, I'm sorry. Uh I'm doing my best. I have to do a visual here. I'm sure Matt's putting it up as well, but I have to do the visual for myself. It'll show two puppets. Wait, which will just be talking. You'll see it yapping away. Any of them, just pick one. They all do the same thing, it doesn't matter. Um, I I think the one I caught this in and the one I watched, I think was um I'm watching a look over there. I think it was warm. Yeah, I think it was warm.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, I want to watch this with audio because it's auto auto-dubbed with AI, and I think that that's really funny.

SPEAKER_06

Yes. I if if the audio can go through, do it. It's two puppets. One will just start talking. There's no background music, there's no nothing. It's just two puppets, one will just start talking and no voice, and then it will stop.

SPEAKER_00

Are you sure that's not just the YouTube dubbing doing its thing?

SPEAKER_06

Even if it was YouTube, maybe even if I'm wrong, and it that is YouTube's AI, what it is translating has nothing to do with what's going on in the scene. It's two guys, two guys like talking about like it looks they're they're on a grassy knoll, like they're just hanging out, talking about stuff. And in this video, like it shows like the sun coming up, and they're all like, Oh, yeah, there's sun or whatever, but then it's talking about sausages. Yeah, like it doesn't make any fucking sense. None of this makes any fucking sense. There's one called poopa from a month ago where it's that's the sausage one. That is the sausage one. It's like talking, and then the other, the other fucking uh puppet will just stare at the sausage while this thing's Tama's sausage, and the camera just zooms in on this puppet and its dead fucking eyes, and it just sits there not doing anything. Well, the other thing is just like the sausage rolled down the hill. I must have lost it in the woods, and it's like what is happening here?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, you're 100% just hearing the AI auto. If you change the voice chain the audio channel, it it's originally in Japanese, and the Japanese matches the mouths of the puppets.

SPEAKER_06

It is so fucking weird, man. It is so so it's it's such a weird concept, and they have a website. Um I mean, even if I was listening to AI, that doesn't explain what the fuck is happening. Like why they're talking about sausages on a grassy pole.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, yeah, yeah, I can't. But uh wrong about that one.

SPEAKER_06

They have a website, and the website is very aesthetically pleasing. I'm not gonna bullshit you. Like, I love this website. Um, but you could just buy merch. It it talks about a little bit of like the characters, like there's non non, there's sun, there's zonzon, but it doesn't really give you much info. It pretty much just explains the characters to you. Like, if you go to the about section, it's just tells you the characters' names, it tells you that like Sunson's a six-year-old, and he likes to make movies and comics with his daily life.

SPEAKER_04

Um but it is strange.

SPEAKER_06

I yeah, it's the one of the most strange things I've ever seen. Yes, but it doesn't seem like it's like got a horror element to it. It's it would make more sense if there was, but there's not.

SPEAKER_00

I think it's just like uh Japanese mascot culture is super super fucking weird. Like it's interesting, but like I think this kind of falls into that category where like that these are just these things that like like Domo is the that is just the fucking mascot for the like national news station, but people are like obsessed with it.

SPEAKER_07

Oh yeah, that's a little brown square thing, right?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, they have like a mascot for literally everything. Yeah, I I don't know.

SPEAKER_06

Maybe I have one more that I want to talk about. Matt's gonna help me talk about this one. Oh shit. Before I talk about it, it's Dr. Dante, baby. Before I go too deep into it, I have to give you guys a little bit of backstory on how this was stumbled upon. Because normally, like with Puppet Sanson or my therapy buddy, it just pops up in my algorithm. I we I I just stumble across it. This is a bit different. So picture your picture this. Put yourself in this scenario. You're at your friend's house. Let's just say his name is uh let's let's let's say you just recorded a Halloween episode in your friend Jason's basement. Let's again, this is all just examples, you know. Yeah. Um let's say you all get a little drunk, you know, you get a little fawn.

SPEAKER_00

And by a little drunk, he means absolutely fucking blasted.

SPEAKER_07

Annihilated.

SPEAKER_06

Then let's let's imagine that two of the four of the people in this basement, let's call them Jason and Doug. I don't know, just for just put to put names on it. Yeah. Jared and Dave, yeah. They go to bed, and that leaves just Mark and uh Miles uh awake. And uh those two uh are hanging out in the basement.

SPEAKER_01

And I don't remember what you guys are about to tell us how you guys had sex or something. Yeah, wait, we're talking about this mic. Yes, but this was the sound thing.

SPEAKER_06

But uh yeah. So we're just hanging out in the basement and watching YouTube, and Jason.

SPEAKER_00

Hey did you did you listen all the way to the very end of the episode last week?

SPEAKER_06

I sure fucking did. Your edits of it. I'll just put it in.

SPEAKER_04

Just meh, meep, meh, meh.

SPEAKER_00

No, the I changed the music at the end so it goes, don't look under the internet, and then it goes.

SPEAKER_06

I didn't hear that part.

SPEAKER_00

No, I didn't know if anybody would hear that. Because I assume everybody just stops listening when they hear poop, boop doop.

SPEAKER_06

Um, that's a little Easter egg for me to find next after this. But imagine you're that drunk and you're on YouTube, and this fellow Jason does not pay for YouTube premiums. So you get the ads, and um you're watching shit, and then a man pops up and it's an advertisement, and he's just singing in front of what looks like stock images of people drinking like margaritas or dancing in a club or everything that would be interesting if you were just like, oh, that was funny, but then it happened again, then it happened again, then it happened again where that is what we were looking forward to coming across. And so I found the man's page. His name is Dr. Don, and he makes music, he's on Spotify too, and he's got a relatively good following. I think he's got like 44,000 or something monthly listeners.

SPEAKER_00

Like it's not not a small number, which is just amazing to me.

SPEAKER_06

But he just and his he just sings this like what's what's this mute type of music?

SPEAKER_00

Lounge-esque music, and yeah, like really he's that good. No, he's not good. He's not even that good.

My Therapy Buddy’s Uncanny Marketing

SPEAKER_06

He's already giving like Tim and Eric's it gave off that vibe so hard to where I think we thought it was gonna turn into a Tim and Eric sketch or something at one point. Because he's very obviously just in front of a green screen, and he's just singing, and his song, he's just like, uh, he'll just sing songs like we're having vodka tonight, it's gonna be a fun night, and like things like that in front of like stock images. Like one of them is called No Pain in the Brain. He's just saying singing in front of like stock imagery of the uh the Golden Gate Bridge. And it's this is easily one of the most fascinating things I've ever come across. What and the the fact that it just would happen, we would just pop up as a commercial, you would come up as the ad every single time there's an ad break.

SPEAKER_00

Some some of them were like mid-rolls, too. So we'd be watching something and then it would interrupt what we were watching. Dr. Dawn! Yeah, Dr. Don. My favorite thing about Dr. Don is that he always has these very like existential meanings to his songs that are keep in mind, very simple. I'm not gonna play them this time because we got dinged pretty hard for C Bat last week, but you know what? It that was worth it.

SPEAKER_06

We now have to share our revenue with that, right?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, um, but he always has like these very existential meanings for his songs, and he puts them in the descriptions of the music videos for the songs. Like the this one called My Top Secret has a you have to scroll down three times to read the entire meaning of this song. But it just says this song was first released in 2023 as a performance by Dr. Don playing acoustic guitar as his dancer editions became more popular. And since My Top Secret, his top stream song on Spotify, the marketing team decided that the song needed a refresh. The primary message of the song is that much of our love life, if we are lucky enough to have one, should remain secret between you and your lover. Your lover in this context is your top secret. Dr. Don tells a pretty funny story in the outtake where he describes his youth with when many of his friends would kiss and tell. Dr. Don's reaction is worth seeing and hearing. Furthermore, Dr. Don explains how women can turn the song around and talk to their men in a loving way using the tone of the song My Top Secret. And like he explains it's he explains the meanings to his songs in case you didn't pick up on the ideas.

SPEAKER_06

I'm not exaggerating though, when I say out of everything that I've talked about in the history of this podcast, Dr. Don is the one thing that I need everybody listening to go to look at. It is truly, truly one of the most fascinating things I've ever come across. And I am so happy that I've come across Dr. Don. There is one other thing that has brought me very similar joy, and I'm upset that I can never find it again. But very similar context. Me and my wife were watching a movie on, we were watching Pumpkinhead on Tubi, and there's ads, breaks on them. Pretty common. But one of the ads we got was for an O-Light, a brand of flashlight called O-Light. And the it was in English, but none of the actors I think speak English. I think they memorize the lines phonetically. And so it just is like so it's just like uh a kid playing ball with his dog in their backyard in like the pitch black, and he throws the ball and they lose it and they can't find it. And the kid just yells, Dad, I lost the ball. But like it's in like very bad English. And his dad's like, I need an O-light now. But he was 80 yard over because I think he could not nail it, so they had to use someone else's voice. And his the way his head bobs, I'm not kidding. He's his literal, like, I'm gonna do it literally right now. He does this. He goes, I need an O-light now. And like they just get a little flashlight, and they're just looking around the backyard and they find it. I recorded it on my phone, but I cannot find a high quality version of this, and it's pissing me off because I really need to find a high quality version of this commercial. If you just put in like O-Light commercial in a YouTube, you just find a thousand of their other ones, but I cannot find this one, and it's really upsetting me. So if you know what I'm talking about and you you you know that commercial and you got a link to it, you send it to us, dilutypot at gmail.com, because I need it in my life. Me and it's another example of me and my wife, like she would go to the bathroom because an ad break was coming up, and then the Olight would come on. I'd be like, Laurie, the O Lite's on, the Olight's on, and she'd come running into the fucking room. It was incredible.

SPEAKER_00

Olight has a rewards program for their flashlights, so if you buy enough tactical flashlights to justify having a rewards program, Olight is the place for you. They also have live chat on the street.

SPEAKER_01

You don't buy one every week?

SPEAKER_06

There are nice looking flashlights, though, I won't lie. I like their there's they're pleasing aesthetically.

SPEAKER_04

Uh that's all I got. Alright. You ready for this?

Puppet Sun Sun And Mascot Culture

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, Wow Me Daddy. Yes. I've got three different things. Two of them are just our actual channels, and one is just a video that I came across. Um, I'll start with just the video. So I came across well, my algorithm said, Hey, you need to see this, and I said, Come closer. What is it? Okay. Um, it was named Neon Genesis South Park.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

And uh it's got like 33,000 views, so it's it's fairly popular. I'm not surprised it hit it hit my my fucking feed. But um the the description says I discovered this old V uh V C D in my collection and couldn't find any references to it. Made by Hot Roman Video around 1997 or thereabouts. It's a video mashup of uh NGE and SP that has angels appearing in our favorite Hick Mountain Town. It also brags of an appearance by Apollo Smile. Don't believe the hype. Not much of an NGE fan, but I'm a huge South Park nut, so I had to get this, and now I'm looking to share this little oddity with others. Um VHS traded tape, so don't complain about the quality. Basically, whoever made this just did like the most crazy mashup of South Park clips to uh Neon Genesis clips, and like it almost seems like they were able to mash it up in a way where it seems like the kids are fighting the angels with the help of like Shinji and Asuka and like Ray and shit. And it's like really, really silly, but like I don't it's just so crappy, it's just so old that I was like, This is this is actually amazing, and um one of the comments.

SPEAKER_06

One of the comments you're about to read it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's the very first one. It's like the description is like an analog horror main character finding a lost tape, but it's just high quality shit post. Is that the one you were gonna read? Yeah, yeah. I was like, that's so good. Like it's like 11 minutes, and it's I don't know, it's worth the watch if you like both fandoms. It's pretty fucking silly, but like it some of the cutaways in it are like and now Ned's karaoke scene, and it's just like the you know, the guy with the fucking voice box like singing, and like yeah, I don't know, it's just really silly, and then like the credits even are kind of funny. Like whoever whoever like edited this, yeah, it's just it's it's just a lot of a lot of silly goofy shit, and of course catering two slices of bread and some peanut butter. Yeah, lighting a single light bulb, yeah. I thought it was funny. It's super random. Yeah. Fucking guy next team. Um, yeah, pretty good stuff. So that that was my that was my first thing. A lot of these are short and sweet, so I'm not gonna take up very much more time.

SPEAKER_06

Um if you dare to sell cheap ass pirated copies of our cheap ass fan dub, we will find you and set fire to your sexual organs. That's good. Oh, it's a memory of his grandpa. So that's good.

SPEAKER_01

Hell yeah. Good for them.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, it's a South Park versus Jerry Springer.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Um, okay, the next one I'm gonna go through is a channel that's just called Did He Died. And uh every video in this channel is titled Did He Died question mark. And uh it's literally just like 15 to 20 second clips of like fail videos that you've seen over and over again through Vine or YouTube or you know TikTok or whatever it is, but they're all just labeled Did He Died, and they have about like two to five thousand like views on all of them. But this thing is like all the videos are like 16 years old. I don't know. I just thought it was really strange, and I was like trying to see. Like, I was like looking through the videos, like I think this podcast has fucked me up because I like wanted there to be something more to this. Like, I was like looking through the videos and looking through the descriptions, and like I was like, there's gotta be more to this, right? No, I think this guy I think it's just straight up a dude just uploading these 15-20 second clips and just labeling them all the same thing. Did he die? And if you actually so if you if you do them by oldest, uh the very like first video is just it just says did he die? And it's like got this really like goofy ass music playing, and it's like 30 seconds long, and it just says did he die? And it's just like a bloody stick figure, and then uh he uploaded a D, an I, an E, and a D. And then it says horrible car accident, and it's just a like uh a Lego guy in a Lego car, just like with fake fire like drawn around it, and it says, Did he die? I don't know, it's really stupid. It makes no sense. I I don't know why. I don't I don't know why. I could not tell you why.

SPEAKER_07

Do we ever find out if he did die?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, did he die? There is one that's like a Zeppelin or like balloon crash where they did die for sure. Not the Hindenburg. Oh, the Hindu. Yeah, no, that one's that one's the only one I saw that looked like he did die. So um yeah. And then the last one I have. There's this dude again, all these are shorts. Oh, yeah, that's fair. I didn't go through all the videos to be fair, but um I'm sure some of them did die. Uh okay, last year.

SPEAKER_00

They may have died later due to unrelated reasons. It has been 14 years.

The Legend Of Dr. Don’s Ad Invasion

SPEAKER_01

That that's fair. There's a pretty solid chance actually that most of them. All these people are dead. Did died. Did died. Um all right. Last last one is a channel called RKTPWR64. It's got six subscribers and five videos, and at max about one video has 700 views, but the others have like 200. And if you haven't noticed, that sort of spells rocket power 64. All of these five videos are drawn like it was made in MS Paint, but for some reason, every single video, the the character Sam, the little blonde kid in the show, gets murdered. Oh, yeah, that's what's going on here. Did he die?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, did he die? So like I don't really have any show rocket power.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but Sam dies in every one of them. In all so and the descriptions don't help out at all. One of them just says we need soup. Um the other one says it's a math class. Whoa, that equation looks tricky, and then just really stupid shit. I don't know. I just found the most weird shit I could possibly find. I actually had a really, really crazy one that I didn't put on the list because it was it would be way too long. But maybe I'll save that for the next time we do this. But it's it was it was kind of similar to the other one I did in the other episode, but uh like a hundred of the episodes or like whatever are like they had like 800 plus videos, like 500 of them are just like AI music videos, and I was like, what the fuck? But like the original videos were all really crazy, but I'll I'll save that for another time. But yeah, that's all I got. I told you it wasn't gonna be anything crazy this time, Mr. Michael. I enjoyed it. That Rocket Power was very, very fun.

SPEAKER_07

Did he die?

SPEAKER_01

What does it mean that it's very clear? What does it all mean, Basil? So yeah, if you wanted some weird shit, you can spend all of one whole minute watching Rocket Power's videos, and you'll see all of the videos.

SPEAKER_06

I enjoy that that exists.

SPEAKER_01

I like that you can YouTube is so big, and there's so much shit that oh, I should mention that Rocket Power is all the videos are 17 years old. Oh god. It's not like some new thing, it's like 17 years old.

SPEAKER_06

You can just find an infinite amount of just what the fuck on YouTube.

SPEAKER_02

Whatever. Yeah. The internet is something for everybody.

SPEAKER_01

An unlawful, unfiltered land sometimes.

SPEAKER_06

Yours made me think of I don't know why, but it reminded me of um remember on Newgrounds, those like Dragon Ball videos? Yes, where it's like, oh my god, freezes here, we gotta go. Did you know that those are Aaron Hansen? Yeah, they're yeah, they're Aaron.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I didn't know that. But I didn't know that either. He did he did those. Yeah, he also did the that fucking well, actually, a lot of people know that the ego raptor video of like the rapture.

SPEAKER_04

But I love you, Pikachu!

SPEAKER_01

But uh all you feed me is puffins.

SPEAKER_06

All you feed me is puffins. I need nerds. My guy would go back to animating. Lightning bolts. It's a damn shame.

SPEAKER_07

Uh counterattack with whatever you feel like, man.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that fucking that rocket power one reminded me of that a lot. Um shit, boys. Good you YouTube haul. Good haul. I enjoy it. We tubed on you, is what we did. I don't know if we can see. Alright, alright. So I think we did it last time. Well, let's let's take a vote here. Who found the most interesting thing? I think last time we we said Doug did. I think when it comes to overall I think I think Matt might have found it this time around, solely because he had a lot of very, very, very niche things. Doug, you did two of rocket power. I guess you would you also did, and and did it die. The fact that Matt stumbled across a very potential ARG uh uh that has like two followers, I think that's that's a good call in my book.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I think I'm sure I like to do value. Jason takes it, but uh Jason doc gets dock points, in my opinion, by popularity. He didn't he didn't really dig into the the obscure the no, not at all.

SPEAKER_07

I just I searched for like an hour and I was like I'm not finding anything that I care about enough to talk about, so I'm just gonna do this.

SPEAKER_06

You found a man who makes bean Reese's PCs.

SPEAKER_07

Right. I saw the bean video. I'm like, well, I have to choose here.

SPEAKER_04

We are actually well thank you for joining us today, everybody.

SPEAKER_06

Uh very fun time. I enjoy these episodes a lot, and the algorithm does too. Um, you can find us uh on all social medias where don't look under the internet or deludypod on all of them. If you want to send us an email, you can do it at dilutipod at gmail.com. Uh go visit our website. It's diluti.com or a patreon, at patreon.com slash dilutipod. You could become a member on both of those things, but on the website there's merch. So that's cool. Again, uh we reference uh mentioned in the other episode, but I'll mention in this one too. We are updating our some of our merch uh here relatively soon. So get it while you can if you like what's up, because some of it may be disappearing. Uh, but we do have some other fun things uh in the chamber getting made. So that's fun. It's a fun time. Uh I would like to go out and say that if you find anything very weird on YouTube, something obscure, some shit that you think that we might be interested in, send it to us in an email. LilyPod at gmail.com. Just again, send it an email. Hey, this is weird. You might as well like it. Uh, keep the porn away, though. I want you to porn.

SPEAKER_00

Well, no, send that anyway. We won't do it on the on the episode, but send it in an email.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. I will take links to Pornhub that are one of my favorite things that are like cars too, the entire movie just on Pornhub or whatever. That's my favorite thing. I love that that exists. So if you find if you're if you're jacking it one day and you find, I don't know, Edward Scissor hands or something on on there, send me the link.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, we're Jordi here. Um, did you guys perchance look at the I saw your best is uh Doug, what do you got to say the people, the beautiful people?

SPEAKER_01

Oh Lord, I don't I don't know. Do do stuff. I I don't it are I think we're still taking a month off from peans and beans, so um do something with something. I don't I don't know. It doesn't have to be sexual, just use your hands, yeah. Yeah, go go make something, go do a make. Do it, damn it, man.

SPEAKER_07

Um well, first and foremost, fuck you, Doug. And second and foremost, stay paranoid. Obviously. Uh, there's probably somebody filming you and putting you in YouTube for weirdos to watch.

SPEAKER_06

Me.

SPEAKER_00

Yep.

SPEAKER_06

Thalamo Jay Simpson. What do you got?

SPEAKER_00

Uh Mexican drug guy got shot, and that caused a bunch of chaos.

SPEAKER_06

El Mencho or whatever his name is. Yeah, that'll happen. That'll happen. Topical Matt. Did you do one on the last episode?

SPEAKER_00

No, I didn't. I don't do the ones where I am the one signing off because it feels better when somebody asks me and I respond with a news story. I don't like the feel of just because when I do the send-offs and ask Doug and Jason what they have, and then for me to follow that up with a news story feels weird.

SPEAKER_06

So Yeah, respect, respect. Alrighty, everybody. We will catch you on the next episode where I may or may not be wearing a turtleneck. Goodbye.

SPEAKER_02

Hope not.

SPEAKER_07

I always nude.
