Astronaut Chris & NG Reviews - Best of SleepyCast

Years ago there was a fan that drew a birthday picture for Cory on Newgrounds. Chris tells this fan on Skype that he going to be gone for a while to train to become an astronaut.

“skype funeral” is one of the saddest combinations of words i’ve ever heard.

"Mick a lot of people hated your guts back when you were starting out." Time truly is a flat circle.

[@seagullman87]

I haven't kept up with the current lore of the rest of the sleepycabin members, so I'm a bit out of the loop. But did Mick ever finish his JJBA fan animation?

[@reddragon4482]

I find it hard to even listen to any of these now with him in it considering how much of a treacherous fucker he is.

since that one Slightly Artistic, im convinced Pelo is the fan from the funeral story

[@MattGodzilla2000]

Holy FUCK

[@bbluva20]

Waaaat, no way. Pelo wouldn’t be like, “hey, why aren’t you watching/reviewing my cartoons”? He must have had fans back then, he doesn’t strike me as someone who needs attention like that.

Everytime I watch this, and even though this is from a year ago, I feel like one of these guys is dead and I'm listening to dead people talk

[@hunkpapa5843]

You probably feel that way because all of them have stopped releasing content on the internet for the most part (except oney) For me it’s timeless. I’ll probably come back to this podcast many years down the road and still enjoy it.

I remember when they made that Brony cartoon, I left an angry review, and someone responded to me. The comment has been lost to time, and I actually hated the funni boys for awhile because of that

[@vilethedog]

Can you even vaguely remember what the comments said

[@TheWyman55_]

@@vilethedog I think my review was just "thats not how bronies act this isn't funny!" and I wouldn't be surprised if Cory responded with "lol". Most of the other reviews were more of the same kind of comments of general hatred and disdain for a flash cartoon, with maybe one in every twelve comment being "lol I hate bronies so much its unreal"

I like Tome...

[@TheShockVox]

It’s okay to like Tome. I liked it too. Doesn’t mean these dudes didn’t have valid criticisms, and Chris Niosi does/did clearly have a problem accepting some criticism or improving. These dudes were harsh as fuck, but they are better than him, and told him in ways he could’ve improved. Writing was subjective but in terms of art, yeah, he could’ve shaded things better since it looked so flat. Or that time when the colors and redesigns of the characters got worse. But I digress, it’s okay to like something despite its HUGE flaws.

Ok as someone who uses iFunny let me say that there are subgroups of people who are conspiracy theorists, black pilled, government hating, edge lords. Shits funny as hell and fairly accurate to what you’re saying. There is quite a lot of autism though but that’s to be expected

[@shrimpybebo2736]

TheOneShotWunda but the people on iFunny won’t amount to what people on Newgrounds did. There’s no originality on iFunny, it’s just repost after repost. Sure the people on both were edgy, but the Newgrounds creators have talent. iFunny users are just edgy libertarians who’ll grow out of their phase.

[@TheOneShotWunda]

Shrimpy Bebo there are tons of original content creators on iFunny. You just need to know where to look, there’s no front page or any good search function so it makes it pretty hard to find those gems but a lot of content comes from iFunny and it gets poached by instagram and reddit despite them having watermarks that will say iF/(insert username)
