I would love to hear from Godzilla. He would bring an interesting perspective of being a giant monster and a metaphor for the atomic bomb.

[@impandskizzpodcast]

His agent won’t even let us talk to him.

[@_QWERTY__]

​@impandskizzpodcast his ears are pretty high up there, did you try talking louder?

[@LadyBirdieBop]

I love everything about this thread. Need a megaphone? I know people with stuff.

[@OliviaDoesThings]

@@impandskizzpodcast That's so rude

[@emmaparkin8543]

Wait - I thought Godzilla was female?

[@ellethecryptid]

Even though I can’t talk to you guys directly in person, I am always willing to give you my time watching this podcast. Even though I’m a busy person with lots of worries, it’s never a waste of my time. You both dedicate hours of your time for us, and we all appreciate it. It makes our lives better, and time stands still for me when I’m here. Love you guys!

[@Laxmi13]

I thought Skizz was going to say, at the 16m mark, "I hope that this podcast is a time stopping moment." And you know what? He didn't, but it totally is. I never feel like it's a waste of time. Even though I listen alone right when it comes out, I also know I'm going to be able to talk about it with friends on the imp and Skizz discord. And I'm also listening to see if I should recommend it to my family. So, in fact, it creates new chances to create shared time. ❤

[@ameliamintz392]

Often I listen to it while I'm at work (alone making dough for 5-6 hours) then I go home and listen with my husband. We always have interesting conversations. ❤ Actually my husband said skizz is the only hermit he actually recognizes when Im walking around with my phone listening on my own. 😅 Lol I love it even more since skizz isn't technically a hermit. But I think he's earned the title honorary hermit. ❤

[@TranTrackz]

37:20 'Had a great time and strengthen bonds' I love when Hermits spend time together, even if it means putting your projects aside. I support this very much after TFC passed away, our times on earth is limited.

[@miniciominiciominicio]

47:53 Speaking of putting people on the spot in a stream, that’s exactly what happened to Br0dy and Etho on the latest Don’t Starve stream. Br0dy was asked if he would consider going on the podcast if asked and passed on the question to Etho as well. They both said yes though who knows, you might ask they privately and they might change their mind without the stream pressure. I think both would be fantastic guests though. If you want to hear for yourself how they answered the question, look in the comments of Br0dyman’s Week 5 of Don’t Starve Together. I’ll pop in the timestamp if it isn’t there already.

[@catcrazy8]

Hey Impulse. You guys talked about doing the podcast on Naked and Scared season 2, episode 11 @7:25. ❤ Hey Skizz. I just remembered Impulse is on vacation and isn't working right now so maybe let him know 😊

[@virine1506]

I stumbled across the ZITS game nights last week where Skizz first met Zedaph. So as Skizz was talking about that all I could think of was this moment: "What does Batman do when nobody is watching?" Skizz: Masterbats. That was a very funny moment.

[@rachelzackary8168]

Oh, man! I remember that! I laughed so hard and for so long I had to pause because I was missing everything. Priceless moment! Thank you for reminding me of it.

[@mayabeacarlson6199]

I would love to see your wives on the podcast as guests if they’re up for it! My husband and I have been married for just shy of two years, but especially in the face of so many “wife jokes” or “the ol’ ball and chain” type humor it’s so awesome seeing folks like you two talk so openly and positively about their marriages. Also happy 20 year anniversary, Impulse!

[@Cenecal]

I'm not usually a podcast person, but Imp&Skizz Podcast has hit different for me. You two have such a great dynamic, speak to each other so well, and overall are just so very obviously skilled in the art of conversing (i.e. you guys know when to stop and let the other speak, no one is really dominating the conversation, etc). I look forward to the new episodes every Friday :) You guys joke about the 3 levels & challenge, but in my opinion those episodes are always the most inspirational to listen to-- this one is no exception. I've even made my own personal playlist compiling the most motivating podcast episodes you guys have posted so that I can re-listen whenever I feel like I'm in a rut ("What's Stopping You" has gotten me through most of these ruts singlehandedly. I've also made other people in my life sit down and listen to that episode because of how world-rocking it is when you take it to heart lol). I hope you guys know how many people's lives you have changed for the better (mine included)! Keep up the great work guys :) P.S. Loved hearing Skizz gush about Zedaph, cause same lol. I absolutely adore Zed's witty-slapstick style of comedy; he's one of the funniest KZbinrs I've ever watched. I know that you guys spent a lot of the episode talking about not wanting to ask people for their time, but if he was ever interested in coming on the podcast, I think he would make a great guest!

[@WilliamComartin]

Assuming you haven't missed any weeks, you could uptick the season after Episode 52, since that would be a year after you started.

[@RisingFromTheAshes97]

That's what I was thinking. Just have a season as each year of the podcast. First year is season one , and once the second year starts that would be season 2.

[@auntypuds99]

I love spending an hour of my Saturday with both of you listening to the podcast. Spending quality time with loved ones is so important, being present is vital especially once those loved ones pass away. Happy anniversary Impulse and Mrs Impulse. The most relatable statement ever…. Listening to your kid talk about something that you have zero interest in but giving them your time and attention because you love them!

[@kdmuldoon]

Me too!

[@Nonamer52]

I recently lost my grandfather and he was super close with me. I can tell you right now I spent alot of time with him but looking back at how many times I said no. You can never EVER spend too much time with the people you love. Awesome podcast today, guys. love the message!!

[@2karu]

skizz talking abt meeting zedaph made me tear up, super sweet, super glad to be here for this weeks ep!

[@taline13480]

I would actually love a podcast on saying "no". Like you said, it's really hard to say "no", but sometimes you have to, or at least should, but feel like you can't. And it doesn't have to be just time; it can be money, or resources, or something else.

[@tigwie644]

As a lead inventory analyst, thank you for the shout out. 🎉🎉🎉 The aspect of wasting time trying to find and gather things irks me so badly that I’ve made a career of it. 😂😂❤

[@catcrazy8]

I feel like anyone that you ask to be on the podcast would be happy to do it. Not only because y'all are great and the podcast is awesome but it's good business. They get more exposure to new people that might go look them up after the podcast airs. Free advertising for their channels! It's good for everyone so don't worry or have guilt for asking people to spend their time with y'all 😊 No guilt anymore Impulse 😉

[@bessielou530]

I live in a very s;mall town where taking time to talk to everyone you run into is a common thing. We are a close knit community and share our lives with each other. There are personalities that don't always get along but for the most part we all rely on each other and take time to be a part of our community. Small town mentality is really a thing that those who live in a city don't fully understand (and don't actually enjoy).

[@tamstertx63]

Happy 20th anniversary to Impulse and his wife!! Congrats!

[@sorrynotsorry8224]

There's a line in a song from a few years ago, "Time's a currency, I'm currently poor". It's very true. We'd love to spend time on so many things but we're limited in how much time we have and have to spend it wisely.

[@Starhunter1975]

That was enjoyable, informative and thought-provoking. How you had a lovely time away with your wife and Skizz, your server is a lot of fun to play on.

[@Missmori]

One of my favorite parts of my week is getting up at 7AM on Saturday to take my best friend and coworker up to her clinic. not only am I super proud of her for being almost two years clean, but we just bullshit the entire twenty minute drive, and her two year old entertains me while she's in the clinic. we get iced coffee and him a few doughnut holes on the way home, and it just makes my entire weekend start off with a great and relaxing feeling. She told me the other day how bad she felt that i do this for her, and that she should give me money so she's not wasting my time. and i told her, "these are the best minutes of my weekend. you are never a waste of my time. we could be stuck in a traffic jam thats takes two hours, and i'd still enjoy every minute of it."

[@KristenABales]

I do this with my grandmother. I love her to pieces, she's had her ups and downs, but every week I take my kids (her great-grandkids) to see her and spend three or so hours there chatting, playing, and listening her talk about whatever she feels like talking about. We don't share a lot of views about the world or politics, but I don't let that hold me back from spending time with her. I know she won't be here forever, and I want to make sure I spend my time with her while I still can.

[@gardenshed6043]

I want you to think about this. I have watched every single Podcast. All about an hour long. And I plan to watch next weeks. At that point I will have spent 48 hours, 2 full days, watching your Podcast. And I am not the only one. I reckon there is a thousand of us or so at least who’ve watched every episode of your podcast. That’s 2000 days worth of time. Over 5 years of people’s time people have spent watching this brilliant podcast. And I don’t think we’d say we wasted it. Because this is a brilliant podcast. Think about the time spent watching each one of your videos. A 20 minute video across 1000 people is almost 2 weeks of time. Time people willingly spent with you. People get so down on relatively low numbers on KZbin. But don’t you think that’s amazing?

[@Zellada]

I come at "time" from a different point of view. Four years ago, due to corporate downsizing. I was forced into early retirement from my career. I've lost one of my parents, both of my sisters, a brother, and my father in the last decade. My BFF for 30+ years, passed away a few years ago. I wish I had someone to spend my time with. So I'm on the opposite side of the spectrum. My point is... Don't miss those opportunities to spend time with people. They won't always be around for you. Thank you for sharing your time with us!

[@kookooiam6034]

Never feel guilty about saying no… but always respond, never ignore a request (especially a kid) their emotions/feelings are already on a roller coaster, don’t add to it.

[@kookooiam6034]

Okay, so never bog your time down just to respond… understand

[@themegaultimate]

Time 🕦 is really valuable because time goes by fast 💨, this video made me appreciate 🧐 time.Thanks! ❤

[@mtn_linda364]

About The Simpsons episode: Skizz, it was a painting Marge did of Ringo. And it did show profoundly how famous people cannot answer EVERY submission. On top of that, it was before the internet, just snail mail burying Ringo.

[@piorfino]

I would love to hear from Mrs Tango. She could bring such an interesting perspective on the world of content creation as the wife of a full time content creator who has dabbled in streaming herself. Plus she is just super funny and could bring a lot to the conversation

[@scottpwood]

That would be a really fun!

[@Drawlistics]

I'm really happy that you're getting a well deserved break Imp! Make sure to fully enjoy it and spend some quality time in that trip!

[@bondsmatthew]

I had no idea I was so looking forward to this podcast the last several weeks until I looked on KZbin today and saw it pop up. I was incredibly excited for another episode

[@fizzle7421]

I thought it was cool that you helped cub catch that ghast and it didn't go unnoticed. Like, it was unlike you, especially with it being cub. I can see tango or zed, but not so much with cub and a mini game isn't involved, but I'm so glad you did. It was fun.

[@millerk7456]

i feel the same way, skizz. anytime theres a gathering with, including myself, more than 4 people, i find myself being completely silent. i always find myself thinking, "these people have their own clique that i'm not part of. being here is intruding on their friend time." it sucks

[@hjones9984]

I love the point you made about spending time versus sharing time, giving time, and wasting time. And, speaking of time: the clock behind Impulse is still not working!

[@ankhayratv]

22:30 Podcasts do seasons if they don't make episodes every week, or they take a holiday in the summer and let it tick over then so they have a "last episode of the season" in June, and start the new season in September (or later because they forgot). If you're not taking a break and there will be an episode every week, just number them. Xisuma has been numbering his Hermitcraft episodes since 001, so why not?

[@mattks1001]

For organizational purposes adding seasons could potentially help. If someone says episode 121. Off the top of your head, when would that be? But if you do 50 episodes a year (season). That would be Season 3 episode 21. You’d know it’s their 3rd year immediately and roughly a little less then half way through the year. There are positives and negatives to both organizational ways. But I feel when it’s not broken into seasons it can get a little overwhelming. 300 episodes compared to 6 seasons. Now to a viewer perspective, I personally would be more likely to go back and watch previous episodes. The Joe Rogan Experience does it the way you recommend and when I look at his 1500+ episodes. I have no idea where to start. Never watched a single one. It’s just overwhelming (to me) to even try to search that database. I think that’s another reason the seasonal format has become so successful and mainstream in the US. I used the Joe Rogan Experience as an example because he is successful, perhaps one of the most successful podcasts out there. But I personally can’t stand how it’s organized.

[@thenarrator9204]

This is absolutely true! I teach my kids to value time spent as much as possibl. Example is in regards to being angry or sad. Express the emotion to relieve the source causing it, but don't let it linger. Holding onto something like that too long wastes time unnecessarily when it could be better spent making you feel better or doing something fun or solving a problem. Its worked out well so far!

[@polarexpressproductions890]

20:29 😂😂😂😂😂 I mean impulse likes what he likes lmao 🤣 I’m just kidding! Great podcast!

[@WendyNyxi]

I think you guys asking people to be on the podcast is a chance for the guest to make memories. Being on the podcast is a unique memory that people are willing to spend their time on! As long as you leave it open for them to say no with no hard feelings, I think it's a great thing to ask your guests! There's quality time with you guys, there's unique memories being made and there's a bunch of positive interaction/response with us viewers!

[@dazzmead007]

Another excellent and very thought-provoking episode guys. Time is a great topic and it has so many things tied to it, and our perception and judgement of how it should be used etc is different for all of us. And like you said, im very sure all your guests hold you in high opinion and enjoyed giving their time to you, to share with us.

[@lozodidit]

I am a step father to two daughters. The father is very much still in the picture but his work takes priority often. The younger one graduated middle school last week and everyone was supposed to go out to eat after and he didn't show. It was really tough for her. She just wanted to spend time with him and although it's not life or death he won't get that time back.

[@stlbuddhist]

It's been 8 months since episode 1. Once you get to a year, nothing stops you from calling it season 2 since it will be the first anniversary of the start of the podcast. It's a milestone; use that as a marker for seasons.

[@silverfeigner]

The concept of this topic is grasped, the execution of it is a little elusive. Getting to spend time with my husband is very challenging due to him being on the road during the week and talking to him every night. The only time I really get to spend with him is when he is home during the weekend. Usually the day before he goes back out to work or even the day of, we both start to miss each other again.

[@epicthief]

16:00 serious Big Fish vibes, the whole time stopping when life is at its highest

[@xaeul5389]

i was in the middle of watching this when you guys were talking about how if your friends or family ask to do domething with you, dont say no to memories, and i recently talked with my friends about not hanging out together and i felt really bad that i would always say no to them, but bwcause of this podcast i felt like i needed to be more transparent and open to them about how i felt and that i really do love hanging out with my friends. thank you impulse and skizz 💜

[@Rivi_Styx]

Every week I listen to you guys, I become a better human. You can have my hour. So worth it!

[@marieleelee]

When I was younger life felt like it could stretch forever. I gave my time to stuff and people I probably shouldn’t have but as all things you learn and you grow. Giving time to people who value it and reciprocate can be very fulfilling. It’s one of the most precious non renewable things we’re given when we’re born. It’s okay to be a little stingy with it lol

[@cyberfox7249]

The start is literally me and my best friend lmao

[@izzyblob]

Its the best time of the week, Podcast day!!

[@jasmindisney8787]

On my honeymoon we kept getting offered perks if we'd go to the timeshare thing, eventually we got offered $400 cash. I was adamant about not starting our marriage with an albatross around our necks. The guys gave up after an hour or so and calling a supervisor etc. We were Sr the office collecting our cash reward and ran into so many people who actually bought the timeshare and all they got was a discount on jetski lessons or something cheap/worthless. My best friend went 7 months later and *bought* the tineshare....only went back once and lost tons of money..... I win 🏆

[@Emeraldyssa]

Gosh this is great, it’s about projecting your thoughts about their answer before asking

[@MxMnKC]

This was the conversation I needed to hear right now. We spend time on what we value most. I want to spend and give more of my time to the people who are important to me. I needed to hear this conversation right now. Thank you Gentlemen!

[@wryonion]

I’d much rather give time than money. Seems a better use than the ways we find to waste it. Even if it’s a stranger or someone I barely know. I’ve made some really good friends that way. But if someone makes me regret giving them my time, they probably aren’t going to get any again (outside of family).

[@thomasws3]

Wanted to let y'all know that this podcast has been a huge positive influence in my life. I have been attempting to get into the content creation sphere, and remembering what y'all said in the "pulling the trigger" podcast help me to contact a friend a pitch him the idea I have had for a while of a character design podcast. I was so nervous, I was willing to let it fade into obscurity, but a lot of what y'all have said helped me to keep the dream. My friend was interested, and we just recorded our pilot episode, and set it to go live on YT on Tuesday.

[@BlondieSaidWhat]

Bumper sticker for the win.... Would totally buy a sticker of y'alls i&s logo...

[@sapphicgal3245]

Congrats on having the podcast weekly for so long, that's incredibly impressive and is great commitment

[@piorfino]

Great topic today. Can't wait to listen

[@Ghostdave1]

Love the podcast. Keep it ip fellas!!!

[@andrewholland2763]

This Podcast has been truly amazing. I look forward to it every Friday. It cannot believe that in just over one month it will be a year! This is one of the Podcasts I try to never miss. The insights and topics y’all cover are great. Keep up the amazing work!

[@chelsiearcher5769]

20:24 We hear Impulse yell "boobies" and I absolutely lose my mind and save the video to show both my sister and my husband🤣🤣🤣 For real though, i have serious respect for the both of you. It threw me off guard and made me snort my water out of my nose. Made my entire week.

[@Princess223Tx]

Some people really love to help others, so by asking someone to join the podcast you may just really make their day!

[@michaelkittler6155]

Season 2 will start when the two of you switch seats

[@FallenAnvilForge]

Almost a year already? I hadn't noticed until you guys mentioned it. I look forward the podcast every week. I totally agree with Skizz where he says in person is the best way to share time. I have friends in Wyoming who I haven't seen in almost 10 years now, text and phone calls just aren't the same.

[@TheTKDgirl101]

Fantastic podcast as always

[@artfishal6691]

I'm so glad I caught this to start my vacation with quality family time. Thanks guys keep up the awesome work.

[@sirromap1021]

I suggest starting "season 2" at episode 52. Each year is a new season.

[@VanessaHBIC]

Unfortunately for me I have a couple of people in my life that I would rather not waste as much time with as I would like to but they are family members. Because of my current circumstances I am unable to stop them from showing up and bringing their negativity in my life but I'm hoping that when the time comes I can break away live how I want to live my life without so much negativity!

[@54m0h7]

I find one of my biggest issues with Time is that I always want to maximize it. But then I'll look at a task and say, well it would be faster if ___, and I don't have that, and then the task just go undone. I've been trying to tell myself that some things, even if they take more time are still worth doing. An example might be painting your house. It'd be faster if you had a spray gun, but you don't want to leave it undone, so doing it by hand is still important.

[@nobodyyo]

I love listening to these podcasts as I'm baking and this one hit close to home

[@Marie-rr4zb]

That moment with a kid that doesn't really mean anything to you, when they're telling you about something uninteresting, could be really important to them. A moment they look back on fondly. My son extensively tells me about Pokemon, which I have no interest in, but his face lights up when he gets going.

[@zterrafin55]

Great podcast as usual

[@bandnerdmama7896]

40:00 The Zedaph/Skizz bromance

[@willsell456]

Tahiti is a magical place

[@VolgaLVI]

LOL! The pizza story... I remember that

[@pearlescentmoon_enjoyer]

First time listening, will update

[@StarNanny]

Thanks, @MCSkizzleman 🙋🏼‍♀️

[@MikeGonzales84]

Would love to see an interview with each hermit.

[@kdmuldoon]

Hubby and I celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary in November 🥰

[@BattlestarKasper]

Woooo!!! Impy and Skizz!! Impy with the celsius? Nice

[@theofficialdboy2240]

Just gave over an hour of my time watching this. But it was worth every second. Then again I don’t have 100 dollars 😝 ✌🏽

[@Recabilly]

18:38 it is really crazy how quickly time has gone! It feels like maybe a couple of months ago when the podcast started... Definitely doesn't feel like it's almost been a year!

[@eelproficiency]

this reminded me to call my parents, ty :]

[@ReaperBuildsRC]

I sit here giving 'my time' to listen to you guys. Do I judge if it is time wasted or do I judge if it is time for insight? I think when it comes to people you should know who you should spend your time with and how you can judge that. How you spend your time watching TV playing games etc is a different ball game altogether. Would you say that playing games is a waste of your life if it's something you enjoy doing?

[@thriftymama3786]

Sometimes seasons on podcasts are if they have a specific topic for the season or maybe a certain guest host or something. Like murder podcasts will spend a whole season diving deep into the details of one murder or one serial killer.

[@thelivingshtpost]

15 minutes in and I realize this is an episode talking about sharing time, not an episode where it's time for sharing stories

[@HypnoticTempest]

Oh wow... I've been up longer than the sun took to set and rise again... Unknown all nighter!! 🥸🤌🏼

[@siralstarborn1079]

The moral of the podcast: Build proper storage systems! xD xD xD

[@BlockDriver]

"Why do these people want to be on our podcast?" you ask. Because it's what Impulse said. Someone they care about asked to make a memory with them.

[@dragonli1y]

“Time is something you put on the wall or wear it on your wrist”

[@cerealbox412]

Ringo!

[@FightClub5612]

I think each podcast season should be 64 episodes.

[@fizzle7421]

Get xisuma on, too. I think he'd be a good guest. I'm not expecting or even remotely asking for a face reveal btw. I just want to be clear about that.

[@thomastaylor2559]

Howdy from Leeds UK, really enjoying the podcast guys keep it up, skizz please join hermitcraft 😂

[@KeyLew]

As an introverted introvert, I'd rather give you money than my time.

[@RxDoc2010]

I feel like there is no way I have watched 47 of these, but I know I haven't missed any. Uptick the season on episode 53. Seasons will match your anniversary not necessarily the year,

[@nathanmiles4989]

If you ever get Xisuma on the show you need to put a doomguy Funko Pop on the table and that is who you interview

[@keemorg3997]

40:59 Impulse saying facts (this striked me hard tho)

[@pandasarecute4737]

Hey Imp and Skizz do you view each others as colleagues?

[@TheLegoMechanic]

SKIZZ needs his hot tub so SUBSCRIBE!!!!

[@atillerthehun8039]

Imma say it rn Skizz you’re working too hard

[@sjoss31]

I had to stop watching that episode, as the pain in my heart kept getting bigger and bigger. It's really hard to see other people having so many relationships and opportunities to spend time with others, when oneself is struggling to keep one friend relationship alive. It really annoys me but at the same time, I can't get out of the body I'm in. But to all out there having the same struggle there is always hope and it doesn't matter how old you are.

[@tobaobokoomi1693]

One of the caveats of going to a function and asking "is this worth my time" you also need to ask yourself "who tf am I?" Because 10, 30 or 100 people made the choice to be there...even if topics suck...I work as a professional chef and I used go to functions, conventions and talks quite often because it looks good on the resume...so seeing Martin Yan give a knife skill class, I'm like hell yea...but then sitting through 3 hours of the benefits of vegan water was horrible...and eventually as I got past the still actively work age to the "either retire or teach" age...you wont have to worry being stuck somewhere you feel your time is being wasted because the invites will no longer be there...just food for thought from an old fart 🤘
