[@HeroofTime6996]

that bit about holding in your sneeze and dying has to be made into a sketch. I was dying laughing thinking about it lmfao

[@thefrogwannabe6895]

better than dying sneezing lol

[@riley10199]

We need to start a podcast beef between Hat Chat and Triforce.

[@sirBrouwer]

hmm, I would love some nice beef stew with fluffy potatoes.

[@oomfoof7294]

Would it be too crazy to suggest a 6 man podcast of the Triforce and hat chat?

[@sirBrouwer]

@@oomfoof7294 yes. I think 6 people in a podcast unless very scripted won't work. you have 5 people that constantly need to be silence.you can have like in real life have like two ore more conversations going on at once. or you need to record them separate and play them back separate. 3 is really the best number for a podcast. Even when there has been a 4th here in this podcast you will see that one of the lads will be more silence then the other. take in mind there are people that only hear the podcast and don't see it.

[@chrisy909]

It was actually strangely satisfying watching Smith comb his beard the whole time... thumbs up from me lol

[@calemaceanruig8010]

Smith melting easter eggs into thicker bits of chocolate: "AlChEmY"!

[@nibbles877]

just wanted to thank you lads so much for all you've done. your videos really help in times like these.

[@awesomeaartvark]

The bit of Ross dying from sneezing was hilarious, hahaha, I love these podcasts so much

[@moondusk8385]

Yes perfect Friday evening, tucked up in bed, trying to switch off from the stress and worry from the outside world. I just love my dose of Hat Chat with Hat Daddies. Just listening to the with their sweet, daft , random chit chat is awesome, just what i needed. Thank You .

[@shadows_recruit2072]

Trott, I work in retail and feel your pain about customers blocking aisles. At this point I just shout “Excuse me” and carry on walking until they freak out cos they’re getting close to me. Stop blocking the one way system

[@equanimityturban]

Man I was needing this, please never stop making content lads

[@harveyjennings8301]

Is that the antiques road show. Smith is humming at 40:32

[@kierenmchale9470]

Smithy: So Trott why don't you tell us the story of Easter. That was so random and had me laughing so much randomly.

[@FreakyLoserJiruu]

I work at a grocery store. Saw a mom with an infant in its carrier [that also acts as a car seat. It's one of those clip in and out, usually used for newborn-6 monthish] and had the carrier in the cart. Also in the cart was the following: A banana, A canned good, and 4 bottles of wine. That's what she came in for. Of course she walked the store before checking out. Mother of the year. Thank you boiks for being a little bit of sanity during this crazy times.

[@donm6578]

I love these deep, hard-hitting hat chats. Thanks for still making content during this time so I have something to enjoy during my self quarantine

[@ktjayner320]

Listening you you boys whilst on my night shift lunch as I work in a supermarket. Thanks for the lols. You always put a smile on my face.

[@danpelucci]

Is anyone else re-living the pandemic through Hat Chat podcasts?

[@Defuse__]

cheers for keeping these up over the lockdown boiks, hope yous are all staying safe!

[@ZorroLocoStudios]

19:34 "What if it was the other way around and she had to steal some of his jizz?" Isn't that basically what Horus does to Set in the Osiris myth?

[@Mgrow]

Out of anyone I'd have thought Smiffy would have had a box FULL of PPE.

[@Liam-yd1cb]

Alex Smith: Mother of Dragons

[@Ora_]

There are people who are way too relaxed about corona and then there are people like hat films who are way too scared to even go outside :D

[@DaftCricket]

14:50 please make this in to a thing after quarantine

[@Octoploppy]

Netflix should do a series on Smith called Dragon King or Lizard King.

[@TokkiYamaguchi]

Hey. I'm late to the last two episodes. Gonna watch the latest one next. Just wanna share that I love these and I hope you keep going ❤️

[@shanemorton773]

Double uploads babyyyyy.

[@Chapizard]

How can I get in good standing with the Hat Films church?

[@meganduncanson16]

At our local stores there's arrows on the isles to show what way to go (like IKEA) and recently there was this absolute fucking mad man just walking up and down where ever he wants. My mum was so pissed 😂 😂

[@PJDuffield]

who else bet it would be under half an hour before smith mentioned Kenya

[@Baccy3333]

first time ive listened for a while. Good stuff haha

[@garyteano3026]

Sike smiffy, I’m watching this from my iPad right now!

[@tiltedmouse1972]

china actually is majority atheist so not just a western/European thing I guess. thanks for cheering up my lockdown life lads. love the show.

[@dendlefiends]

I just watched a thing on easter and surprisingly its 100% christian. I always thought it had pagan origins as well

[@MrMangotango3]

Anybody know what format is the best to send fingles in?

[@user-co2ps4yo7k]

wav

[@MrMangotango3]

- thanks chum

[@PageAaron]

Hat films is pretty much the 3 types of Atheist. Ross being the most reasonable one. Trott is kinda in between and Smith being that guy who thinks he's somewhat smarter just because he's an atheist.

[@PaidHits]

In the US you can still go to jail for killing someone who’s broken into your home

[@DjDolHaus86]

Smith, you can own guns in the UK, you just need a firearms certificate and a gun cabinet. It's really not that difficult as long as you've not got a criminal record and it's the exact model of responsible ownership you described. Can't have handguns but lets be honest, shotguns and rifles are way more fun

[@dafyddbryan83]

how would you boiks feel about doing a short bit on male mental health in todays society? would be interesting to hear your take on it. keep up the good work!!

[@Texicus_Reddicus]

egyptians used basters for enimas and 1900 people re-used it for turey

[@cascade9584]

Does anybody know whether Smith personally believes anyone should be able to own a gun? Not really sure about his stance

[@DarkenRahl]

Tele-evangelists exploiting people is very related to twitch streamers and viewers, where it can be even worse, as those that are vulnerable for attention get it throug a streamer giving them a shoutout or having donation to speech. But I do think it has gotten alot better as many streamers go out of their way to tell people that if you dont have the extra cash to spend, then you dont need to (atleast those I watch).

[@ziksy6460]

Smith, a country limiting individuals' freedom isn't necessarily a bad thing - within reasons. You said it yourself; you enjoy the peace of mind of not having to worry about getting shot in the street. Why do you want to have guns? Because guns are fun? Well is it worth it to have the rate of gun violence increase to indulge you in your fun? Or is it because you want to protect your property? Well, how safe are you really when every other guy also owns a gun? To live in a functioning society we constantly sacrifice our freedom all the time. I don't understand why people (especially Americans) get really fixated on the concept of 'freedom'. I know you work your ass off to earn money - but part of it must go towards taxes. I know that car is yours, but you have to drive in accordance with the rules of the road - and no one cares if you think you're a skilled driver. I know that land is empty - but you can't just build your house there without the proper legal procedure. You see what I'm saying?

[@Lone-Traveler]

Not all christains are the way you describe them. Not all of them are fenatical lunatics that ignore modern science and medicine. Unfortunatly you do meet allot of them that are like that. But ive also met many that are normal people and just live by the doctrine.

[@elderdragon5745]

Vocal minority thing. And that's a beef I have. Every time a nutjob says something preposterous, the majority of sane, non-fanatical believers keeps quiet. If they were to make loud noise saying "yo, this ain't it chief", this kind os misinformation would not happen.

[@Lone-Traveler]

Lopes Lopes exactly I agree with you and with smith for the most part too I’m just wanting to make sure people know not everyone is the way he describes it

[@pippin1792]

man i nearly creamed listening to that fingle ngl

[@ModrunOfficial]

i dont understand why people complain about being bored when they got all the free time they ever could have just do something if ur bored??? i bet they would complain all day at work that they are bored anyway like so whiny

[@GiveMeBackMyUsernameYouTube]

Same. When I broke my leg two years ago and couldn't walk without mind-shattering agony a couple of years ago I taught myself to knit. I have so many tacky jumpers now, it's great. I've been thinking of getting myself a power rack these last few weeks so I can maybe get a bit fitter, but because I'm stuck making literally no money I have to try and justify every purchase I'm making in my head.

[@FlyLowPanda]

Racist Dalek cameo at the end

[@garrettstanbrough1700]

My college is using Webex for classes and it sucks ass

[@chrism45]

No one is mentioning it and I'm late and it might just be me but is Smith very slightly out of sync?

[@surface-to-airmissilelaunc4656]

I. am. so. offended. jk As a Catholic, I don't believe in being a pussy. Don't be afraid of offending religious people. Just be prepared to defend your viewpoint.

[@theaces3697]

i love that people of modern religions like christians, muslims etc laugh at stuff such as egyptian and norse gods and shurg it off as myth, but the fact is things like norse gods and religon makes a lot more sense than a lot of modern religions

[@MeAuntieNora]

I remember an art history professor of mine once told a packed lecture hall of ~200 students that the Ancient Greeks "didn't actually believe" in their gods and myths. She said something like "just think about it, they obviously aren't depicting beings and events that they see as historical. They were like stories and moral guidelines more than an active practice or belief." I thought that sounded oddly biased, as I admit from my perspective it's hard not to feel that same scrutiny towards every religious belief system. What makes the modern extant religions rational to believe in by comparison? Literally nothing. Ancient peoples had just as many reasons to believe and practice what they did as people do now. Not only did Greeks believe in their gods, they were terrified of them. They were basically never NOT practicing their belief, because of the fear of the consequences on their lives if they didn't do so properly.

[@justinschmidt1142]

Usually love the podcast. But would kinda prefer not listening to covid 19 chat. Understand it’s important but it’s all anyone is talking about and would prefer an escape

[@IlIIlIIIIIlBrianSt0rm]

In terms of the Norse religion / mythology, like with the anicent Greek, Roman and Egyptians mythologies/religions. Atleast in my eyes are far more reasonable and understanding as a belief system rather than the monotheisms which are still around today. Like Smith said, they were primarily built on the basics of their societies and then over the centuries myths and folklore developed into one large mythology. Rather than this one 'holy scripture' which depicts an omnipotent being of seemingly endless power.

[@HighlandPhoenix]

You can make a church easily, John Oliver did it on his HBO show...check out his videos - hilarious!

[@NibenonErurainon]

Oh no lads, keeping the old “Easter comes from Ishtar” afloat? Literally no actual historian believes that; it’s a trendy gotcha for atheist edgelords.

[@dragonzord6615]

Idk about you guys over in the UK, but Australia closed it's places of worship weeks ago. And the way you portray Christians isn't how any of the Christians I know act like, and I've been going to church for a few years now. They're definitely the extremes. After watching all of this, I really don't think you understand a majority of Christian culture....

[@TheRealOrca85]

Dragonzord I wouldn’t be offended I don’t think they mean to shit on religion they probably just don’t have a huge amount of experience or that experience is bad.

[@dragonzord6615]

@@TheRealOrca85 I'm pretty sure they do mean to shit on religion and religious people by talking about it in such broad strokes.

[@leetri]

It's all anecdotal. There's a lot of Christians who do act the way they talked about it, and your experience being different doesn't nullify their existence. Every group has their fanatics, and unfortunately they're a LOT louder than the good people. You also have to remember that there's a lot of different versions of Christianity and they all look at things differently with different customs and culture. Just look at the Westboro Baptist Church, that's a Christian branch that's more or less a pure hate group.

[@dragonzord6615]

@@leetri I agree, these people exist. But they're not the majority of the people.And they exist in all religions and yet only Christianity is mentioned.

[@TheRealOrca85]

Dragonzord maybe yeah but you have to hope it is out of ignorance rather than hatred was my point

[@E2O10]

Ah yes, now that we're not distracted by all the pop-culture bullshit, the real problems in our civilization become more apparent, who knew xD

[@enigmaPL]

With regards to the no guns in the UK... I hope you know there are plenty. Banning guns for citizens is just that, a ban for law abiding citizens. Criminals will ALWAYS get their hands on guns, regardless of what law you write on a piece of paper. My two cents.

[@Bob21150]

@24:30 sociologist?

[@gavrielsholtocreen8208]

Smith constantly with his hands on his face 😵😵

[@RufusOmega]

What the hell happened to this podcast? These are the people who once performed an impromptu sketch about lizards jizzing in the ISS, and one about an irate customer shitting on his bank manager's desk, who are now reduced to huddling in their homes like the rest of the virus-panickers, rehashing hearsay on a variety of topics and praying that they don't die of something that has an almost 0% chance of doing them any real harm. So sad.
