The four minutes of build-up to Shayne (Jeffrey Funck) finally speaking made it so much funnier

[@docmcstuffins5859]

And Angela just immediately cackling at his voice was amazing

[@RobbieDBobbet]

Im 5 minutes in and already looking forwards to 38 minutes of Shayne struggling to keep that voice.

[@knightinashes6934]

Shayne is just doing a Garth Marenghi impression but it works so well

[@grug_g]

Spot on, Garth to a T

[@ChiliSainz]

Another banger by Jeffrey Funk from We Bought A Zoo

[@kandykornpumpkins]

Oh no don't start that 🤣🤣🤣

[@misalife626]

His work on Bruce almighty was the biggest oscar snub ever, the 100 piston boobs and Monkey ass were revolutionary for Animatronics

[@priscillasmirrorball]

shayne bringing out his beetle braun voice was truly exceptional

[@TheRougeJedi]

Agreed! What's great is that since watching the recent Staring Contest Livestream, I'm now 100% sure the Beetle Braun voice is just his best attempt at Garth Marenghi from Darkplace (and not for nothing, it's really good!)

[@ItsNik97]

Shayne was great but oh my god, Kylie Brakeman was fucking hilarious, the whole twin study bit absolutely slayed me

[@PapaBPoppin]

"I don't think it can" fking dead

[@techattack6803]

Shayne's "try not to giggle at the absurdity of own jokes for 40 minutes" challenge.

[@weirdo337]

I love how quickly this went from “ok so we’re all just making animatronics” to “so I’ve made the presidential animatronics feel pain”

[@yadito]

29:04 Shayne absolutely dying from laughter with tears in his eyes made my day

[@KH-hu9sv]

it's how his face is visibly damp for the next ten minutes

[@duaneo8188]

28:16 Did the study end? "I don't think it can" 😭

[@Supernovice942]

That part had me cackling!

[@AlexDoge20]

Patrick's ability to watch Shayne talk like that's his actual hero is incredible. As far as he's concerned, that man pushed the Dinosaur's stomach with his feet.

[@daltonbrowne7980]

Did I just stumble across a podcast that’s actually a 45 minute long sketch?

[@blazehaze233]

More collabs with the Smosh Cast please! They are fantastic

[@herb_rolls]

I would love to see Smosh do their own improv podcast!

[@scry5]

i mean half the podcasters are smosh cast/crew

[@blazehaze233]

@@scry5 That's true but I'd love to see Damien or Ian on this podcast

[@matthewmcconnell3011]

I love how some of the characters' voices slowly drop off as the video goes on and they just get lost in the hysteria

[@TFrenchHughes]

Shayne Topp as Taron Egerton as Elton John was incredible

[@theycallmeem5859]

I cannot believe you were privileged enough to get Shayne Robert Topp on here! He was so brilliant in the critically acclaimed film Dear Lemon Lima.

[@andresmendieta7012]

28:17 the funniest part of the episode. Was literally crying 😂😂

[@jgamble5977]

came for smosh, left with VIBES.

[@tpbanned]

Shayne really fit in well! Glad the ep wasn’t unbalanced! Hope to see him again!

[@ATMDrums]

Anything shayne is involved is just gold

[@conziderz1091]

gold….goldbergs?

[@lenonel3286]

He made iCarly with that one guest appearance

[@amarull6]

I can't believe they had a podcast with Garth Marenghi's brother Jeffrey Funck

[@zerofuxgivins7321]

One episode with Shayne topp gave the most views in 24 hours than any other video

[@lenonel3286]

He's got that Goldbergs rizz

[@docmcstuffins5859]

Honestly I clicked out of curiosity from seeing Shayne and Patrick but I was so much more excited when I saw Angela too

[@xX_YallaShoot_Xx]

Another Banger, Another Banger By Shayne Topp From iCarly

[@hamzaabbas9795]

for those smoshers who don't know people sitting next to angela are kylie brakeman and Jeremy Culhane( the same guy who played the alien character from Bolivia sui's funeral video)

[@pichaelhunt5449]

Oh shit I knew Jeremy from make some noise, I didn’t realize that was him in Olivia’s funeral

[@jimmy_the_squid9456]

Jeremy's bit at Olivia's funeral is utterly unhinged and hilarious, props to him for going all in in a room full of people who didn't even know who he was

[@koroconnell]

Kylie with the babies was so fucked up I loved it

[@brucecooley70]

Ok this was in my recommended and I am a half hour into this just thinking how does this channel not have so many more subscribers? Hilarious stuff.

[@robreid5229]

Tremendous, Shayne was a wonderful guest

[@henrahmagix]

excellent Garth Marenghi impression from Shayne!

[@htspencer9084]

It did certainly go to a dark place.

[@AustinDufraimont]

I have just discovered this series and I will be binging it for the next 48 hours since I have covid thank you very much.

[@HitPointsLovecraft447]

Shane's voice is Just Garth Marenghi and that's just such a deep pull

[@zoefinkelman]

the bit about the study is GOLD

[@hayliejoy2053]

So glad I searched shaynes name and saw this, I haven’t stopped watching these for 4 days you guys are hilarious hahahahah

[@cyranojohnson8771]

Another banger! Another banger by Shayne Topp from... ... from Smosh. What'd you think I was gonna say? ;) This was amazingly funny. Kudos to everyone for holding it together through this incredible exercise in absurdity. Loved it.

[@boomgirlbucko]

I full on thought Shayne was gonna go for a high pitched moaning voice

[@zachmcphearson890]

Damn this episode is more than half of their entire channel’s view count. Super underrated!

[@AliaSchumanMusic]

Patrick's Character is tism coded and i love it

[@ConcordD0m]

I didn’t know this was a thing clicked for Shayne and Patrick but now i’m gonna watch the rest

[@bingbongalong]

I clicked on this because I recognized Shayne and Patrick from Smosh, and I'm glad I did because this was hilarious! I was really surprised to see Angela from Smosh here too, I had no idea her and Patrick had a podcast together?? Happy to subscribe and be a part of the ride from now on :)

[@carseatheadrestt]

shaynes voice is actually How does he sound like that. also he fit in so well with the podcast love the literal tears of laughter on his face

[@samuelkirby2865]

'Do you guys collaborate?... Wait, what???' Made me cry with laughter

[@JahlisMan]

okay, Shayne's voice here is just straight up Garth Marenghi:D

[@samsunguser3438]

My brain just broke! One minute, Shayne was doing his british accent, and I was cracking up at his comedic commentary, and then the next instant Shayne morphed into a younger looking version of Daniel Craig, and now I can't unsee it!!! 🤣😂🤣

[@SydneyMist]

The upload frequency this past week on this channel has been a gift

[@herb_rolls]

It's been such a gift! The smile on my face when I see a new episode is unmatched!

[@Boyagony]

shayne was such an amazingly seamless guest, id love to see him on again - he meshes in so well :)

[@de_athking8198]

Shayne really look handsome in this.. Damn..

[@livingportside]

Another banger by Shayne Topp

[@gerpgerp7250]

Very interesting video, the first one I am seeing with this kind of plot, really creative and the humor just kept building up, it was a pleasure

[@cryforhelp7270]

Wow! Shayne is an actor!

[@abelkeke]

can't believe I'm rewatching this only an hour after finishing it and I'm still laughing like crazy 😂😂😂

[@alexandersmitley765]

Shayne killled me, that voice got me.

[@HekatieSquires]

o no Shayne sounds like the head of department from my uni 🥲

[@margotdv6714]

this episode was so good omfg

[@Sadtiric]

A YEAR AGO?! This was pleasant. 🎉

[@_dx_dy]

This whole channel is criminally underrated!

[@LilyWinchesterTopp]

Oh Shayne. 😂 I loved this. That accent was genius. This was the best! This is my first time at this podcast. 29:12 Him dying laughing till he cried, is my most favorite thing in the whole world. I haven’t laughed so hard on a podcast since Smosh Cast. 😂 Everything Shayne touches turns gold. As well as Angela. You’re a gem too! ❤ How did 40mins+ y’all keep this charade up?!? I would have died laughing! 😂

[@user-gu5qz8td1g]

I got tears from laughing, this show is awesome

[@nicktheanticlause1313]

I love that Christoph Waltz esc voice.

[@marts3104]

wow i cant believe beatle brawne and katchem poppy found the time to go on this podcast

[@todayforever111]

I’m 7 minutes in and can’t breath 😭😭

[@vialikescats]

i have never seen any content from/about this channel but this is hilarious & i love seeing shayne do silly bits & cry laugh

[@Vb98765]

Shayne doing his best Garth Merenghi impression 🤣

[@grantsnake]

Omg i saw this before he started talking. Then the voice came and suddenly im in a Romford hospital.

[@frankelguy]

HOW HAVE I ONLY JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS PODCAST

[@StillOnAHeater]

I need another episode with Shayne

[@drakevick1646]

Ik EXACTLY what Shayne meant with the American Sniper baby joke. I thought I was the only one who saw the plastic of it’s face lol

[@AniWillow]

I did not know anything about this podcast and now I love it. It was insane

[@simondimock]

Oh boy. What a guest!

[@GuineaPigEveryday]

Angela is giving me real George C. Scott vibes and I’m here for it. Also my god Shayne killing it with the Garth Marengi voice. The twists and turns of this episode killed me, everyone’s comedic timing and improv is pitch-perfect holy shit

[@MysterySteve]

This is now one of my favourite podcasts

[@aware0879]

I've watched every episode, laughing my cheeks off the entire time. Hands down best thing ever...thank you all for making my day better. Make more!!! So great

[@cgygflkj]

Shaynes character is the purple guy of FNAF 😂😂😂

[@randomusersal]

Ive been waiting to see a fnaf comment 😂

[@brilab]

shayne is so funny I'm crying

[@alyssamelody]

The animatronic animals escaping into the city is giving Jumanji 😂

[@jaredrubino1889]

THIS WAS HILARIOUS!!!!

[@ZoeAlexa11]

What's funny about this is that there are only two animatronic Na'vi in all of Pandora: the Shaman in Na'vi River Journey and Hank (an avatar floating in a tank in the Flight of Passage queue) so the only animatronic that could be speaking is the Shaman lol

[@Cilroc]

Shayne is a legend. What a guy.

[@sad_leafy_boy]

this channel looks so cool how are they so small

[@leadinglife534]

[@bthompson95]

[@gilly_axolotl]

2 minutes in and Shayne hasn't said a word yet, I'm scared

[@grace2049]

[@tyffaneelavely8087]

Oh I remember that poster. Didn't know we Ohioans' were the only ones blessed with that artistic masterpiece. Everyone should absolutely feel jealous of me. P.S. This was my first vid of your guys' channel. Clicked fro Shayne, bcuz he makes me laugh by literally exisiting, but I subscribed bcuz u all are hilarious. Going to go watch more vids! I hope they are all this weird, and unhinged.😉

[@carseatheadrestt]

[@EDZ1LLA]

Did he say his name is Geoffrey Fuck!? 🤣

[@hattierebecca2248]

[@Theunloved1738]

A lot of people don’t talk about this but the rate of Monkeys dying in tight assholes is a real problem in Ghana. My cousin visited there and unfortunately a monkey died in his asshole😔

[@sweetmother2406]

Have Shayne on again! He was brilliant 😂

[@TylerLeeJones]

5:39 subbed after this moment
