TRG Colosseum 2023 Segment 23: Naptime

[@The8BitDrummer]

So thats what happened… 😂 Legit fell asleep at story time, woke up when tom was working out and when Jack played guitar. Jacks guitar was the loudest thing I had ever heard in life up to that point XD

[@insanebiker3329]

Have you ever thought of playing drums to some original songs from hi fi rush? Like too big to fail or captive normals?

[@Rexaura888]

@@insanebiker3329 He’s played My Heart Feels No Pain on stream.

[@codydhf3]

Just to reiterate. Somehow, some way. Jerod LEGITIMATELY fell asleep during the storybook reading and woke up when Jack started playing his guitar.

[@Rexaura888]

Think you got your timeline wrong there. He fell asleep in the brief silence between Tom Simmons and the Pit opening up. Jerod even says in Tom’s vlog that he heard the whole taco story and workout, so he didn’t fall asleep during the story.

[@codydhf3]

@@Rexaura888 thanks for the clarification. I had no idea that's what actually happened.

[@SamTheMarioMan]

Only in Colosseum can I say sentences like "An editor comes out of a treasure chest to do ASMR then turns into an old lady from some anime", "A man in a bathrobe calmly reads about dragons eating tacos while phones go off in the background", or "The bathrobe man's true self leads us in exercises while people wrap up someone sleeping on a couch" and not sound crazy

[@tss3393]

You left out opening up this pit.

[@SamTheMarioMan]

@@tss3393 Opening up this pit is never crazy, opening up this pit is life.

Whoever came up with this segment is a genius! Timestamps Jerod Takes a Nap 0:12 ASMR 4:28 Lord Don'ator Story Time 7:30 (Can we get this more often? Please?) Disco Time 17:01 Wrap the couch 21:13 Toms Exercise Show 22:22 Hiker Da... PIT OPENS! 26:21 Hiker Dance, HEY! He's Trying to Sleep 28:58 Wake up 30:37 Easiest one to timestamp since I knew what happened in it already. Also people in chat were trying to get them to steal his socks, you guys are crazy!

[@beekbeek8535]

If I remember the story correctly from Jon's recap stream, this was actually Adri's idea that she had since Colo 2019~. They didn't have time to get it all set up then, so here it is now~

[@Swordsmasterguy]

​@@beekbeek8535GENIUS!

[@tantheman0921]

​@@beekbeek8535 Oh yeah. I forgot about that

[@tantheman0921]

26:21 OPEN UP THIS PITTTTT! 🤘 Also I love Jack's improv 🤣 "Happy nap time" "I fucking love naps" "I'm so tired" and "Naps are fucking cool"

[@AstralToastie]

Shhhh... Jerod's sleeping... Naps are fucking cool. Bizzard the Wizard Gets A Good Night's Sleep

[@tantheman0921]

I fucking love naps 🤣

[@PokerJoker811]

Sad that the person with the twisted imagination required to come up with this segment didn't get to experience it in person. Hopefully next year, but many thanks to Adriana for this truly inspired piece of content.

[@Thoomas2001]

I'm not kidding when I say that this is one of the best segments we have ever seen.

[@Driggsdamonstah]

See, people think Jerod slept through Jack’s concert but actually…

[@TheGreatPikminZX789]

What a truly relaxing segment. Truly nothing chaotic happens in it at all... Bizzard the Wizard and the "Relaxing" Naptime

[@mustard_96]

How did Jerod, out of EVERYONE, not break and start cracking up during this?

[@RetroRemedies]

during the original stream I lost my mind when Klinket popped out of the chest to do AMSR. I couldn't stop laughing for several minutes

[@Rexaura888]

During the start of the segment I kept asking myself and in chat, “Has that chest always been there?” Lo and behold, it had not and it served a greater purpose.

[@Swordsmasterguy]

​@@Rexaura888Whats... Inside the box?

[@Shiny_Sandshrew]

I love how after all the chaos, Masae just wakes Jerod up so sweetly & gently😂

[@blue_boo3171]

Imagine if Lord Don'ator sold tickets for storytime shows. I'd imagine they would get *book-ed!*

[@alexeidarling]

Bizzard the Wizard Wraps the Couch This segment was a beautiful fever dream, and I loved every minute! I'm not sure if the joke will work more than once, though, unless you changed the activity in the background. I believe Sab brought up doing a jigsaw while people do shenanigans around it. Maybe that could be the sequel in a couple years.

[@AdriftInVR]

I missed this segment during Colo cause took a nap myself, I legit thought there was gonna be a break during the middle of the day to make sure people had energy further into the day

[@Inclanti]

You and me both! I'm really sorry I missed this live, seeing these is awesome but the chat is half the experience.

[@Swordsmasterguy]

I almost did but between my cat and remembering this is TRG, i expected chaos nap

[@mintystingmoon4787]

Truly, one of the naps of all time.

[@Rexaura888]

In which Jerod gets tuckered out after his time of being a short-order cook and gets some shut-eye. Good Night, Bizzard the Wizard Just wanted to share what my donation messages were for each incentive I donated for: -Turn Down Lights:: Lights out for Jerod -Give Comfort:: Head pats for Jerod -Give Stuffed Animal:: Plushie for Jerod -Wrap the couch:: Wrap for Jerod? -Open up this pit:: Open pit for Jerod…???

[@Max1996YT]

Were you expecting the rock music (and bongos)?

[@Rexaura888]

@@Max1996YT I was expecting the rock. I was not expecting the bongos (or Tyler).

[@beekbeek8535]

In which Jerod decides to take a well-earned nap, nothing can go wrong for our 8Bit Bnuuy Boy, right~? Oh, hi, Kampy~ Bizzard the Wizard and the Naptime of Wonders

[@sasukuto]

Every time I think I've seen the most unhinged segment TRG could possibly come up with, somebody tries to one up it. We got a new contender here ladies and gentlemen. Gotta say, surprisingly hilarious of a segment. Short, sweet, and too the point. I like it.

[@Kairamek]

This was the most unique segment they've done. I hope to see more performance art like this in the future.

[@SliderGamer55]

My main thought during this is that it felt like something an indie band would do for a viral music video. One shot, crazy stuff happening, guy inexplicably sleeping through it all.

[@myohel0]

Kampy was such a champ with getting unintentionally stuck on the couch and going along with the motions of the rest of the segment (like rocking out to Jack's concert). Legends say Kampy is still attached to the couch to this day.

[@ZakTheFallen]

I find it more hilarious that Jerod legitimately didn't notice Kampy standing there when Masae woke him up.

[@StormrangerOmega]

​@@ZakTheFallen _Definitely helps to sell the bit that Jerod was sleeping for the entire segment..._

[@newdonktimes2034]

This is what happens when you are the first person to fall asleep at the sleepover>

[@kyleliddon6799]

If you go and the watch the stream where Jon did a recap of coliseum it makes this segment much better due to context For example Jyggy explained that the main reason kampung was there during the couch was to keep the lamp from falling on the couch. He actually got stuck during the couch wrapping and had to stay there. I honestly recommend anyone who didn’t catch it live to watch this stream. It really helps to put the whole coliseum event into perspective

I actually fell asleep for a bit during the Overcooked Segment and woke up around the 15 minute mark. That was something to see without context

[@AiLoveAidoru]

A new spin on the “I’m Only Sleeping” category of twitch! 😂

[@andrewpappas9311]

I still remember being incredibly baffled by this segment when it first came on but I won’t deny that it’s incredibly wholesome as well, he is a sleepy drummer boi

[@shadic4566]

I actually slept while this part of the segment was playing when I was watching it on Jon's Twitch channel long after TRGC has ended.

[@ChibiSkitty19]

I had no idea that there was a book that was about dragon's loving tacos and parties.

I give props to the people writing the incentives as time went on for this segment. xD

he nap!

[@Savannahthehyenaqueen]

Someday, I hope I can do something like this. Goofing off with friends for charity. Amazing.

[@KennedyKJK2016]

Sigh…now it is time for many more naps too.

[@SportsGaming-ll3ru]

Please do more of this at the next colesseum, this was awesome

[@YourPalRal]

This segment was great.

[@heyindiegamer7831]

Fun Fact: Jerod didn't know Campy was wrapped up next to him even after waking up

[@catblackburn7486]

Leave it Colosseum to find a way to not only break Twitch's old "No Sleeping On Stream" rule, but also monetize it and incentivize it for charity??? Truly a work of art, this segment.

[@storm5936]

IIRC, Aelita (One of Jon's mods) said that either the rule had been changed or removed (I don't remember which) so I don't think they broke Twitch TOS at all & I don't think a segment would get included if it broke TOS

[@catblackburn7486]

@@storm5936 Ah, that makes sense. I still like to think the idea was cooked up as a nod to that old rule though. Either way, still an incredible segment!

I don't know about anyone else here, but I think Jack and his crew were the most helpful. Poor Kampy, though. Sad how he got wrapped up in this.

It was the Hole Puncher’s boss music from Origami King :)

[@PichuBro8]

It oh so eepy time

[@dreamj22]

Sleepy time.

[@GuyYouMetOnline]

I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't want to see this again next year. It was great, don't get me wrong, but it relied heavily on the elements of 'what the hell is this' and 'is this really happening', neither of which would be present if they do it again.

[@EpicScizor]

I could easily see story time with Lord Dona'tor returning.

[@PerfectKirby]

They could easily do this again, what are you talking about? There's countless things they could do around someone sleeping lol

[@GuyYouMetOnline]

@@PerfectKirby It's not just about what they do. The segment worked in large part because nobody knew what to expect from it, which would.not be true a second time (even if the specific things they do are different, the concept would be the same).
