[@Malsagov]

​@@andrewrichardson2079😂 another gem

[@andregordon2599]

I still argue this is the greatest 4 hours of any comedy podcast ever of all time.

[@flyinlow1]

Harry Scotter episodes were pretty epic though

[@adamprugh7425]

you would be right

[@ichiban308]

Close 2nd is the earthworm Jim/ boy saver episode

[@DarthScrewtape27]

The pretty good worker is up there too

[@rogueprince1341]

The Sundance ones and the Fatman On Batman where Ralph rips apart the Dark Knight Rises were also really good episodes.

[@geekrockrats]

I'm walking around in PA listening to 2 guys in California 4 years ago listening to a guy riding around New Jersey talking to himself 26 years ago. What a strange time to be alive

[@blackcandletv813]

I'm sitting in TN, reading your comment from a year ago about walking around in PA, listening to 2 guys in California 5 years ago, listening to a guy riding around New Jersey talking to himself 27 years ago. What a strange time to be alive.

[@Flats.Flounder]

Just droppin in to say I'm high.. whatever year you're reading this😊

[@marcuscrumpton8568]

It’s four years later and I am a Scotsman who just moved to England reading a comment about a guy four years ago listening to two guys four years prior to that listening to a guy riding a bike 26 years ago…long may it continue sir

[@whoisharo4689]

Im in bed in CA reading your comment from 2 years ago, replying to the guy walking around in PA 4 years ago, listening to the podcast in CA from 10 years ago, listening to the kid on his bike from 31 years ago.

[@daviddunlevy6285]

If Moser didn’t end up in the film industry with Kevin, he would’ve been a great therapist, he’s very perceptive with his insight to how he was listening to Emo Kev in the recordings.

[@BigBoyJesus92]

I came back here during quarantine cos I knew it was the only thing pure enough to cure my depression.

Samesies

[@HeyElvisG]

@@jojoface4940 honestly, old SModcast episodes are the perfect form of entertainment. So many old classics to chose from.

[@FUCKINGENIOUS]

What were you depressed about?

[@tryhardtrynot]

The SModcast swansong. Pretty much the pinnacle of the show, or any show of our generation (any generation that's at the point we are now).

[@Malsagov]

Or any generation... that's our age

[@AllofJudea]

​@@Malsagovdreams are just phantom images

[@Psilocybin77]

God I miss hearing these two talk all the time. The smodcasts have helped me through my work day and life so often, and hold a special place in my heart. Thanks for sharing this.

[@andregordon2599]

Seriously one of the greatest 4 hours in pod history. No lie

[@ManofUlster]

Andre Gordon Agreed. I don't think I've ever listened to a podcast episode as many times as this one. It just gets better.

[@multiversal2023]

I think the Harry Potter ones are the funniest for sure lol

[@flyinlow1]

Mosier laughing his ass off is the greatest thing ever hahah

[@artness]

Bless you for cutting this together and posting it.

[@angelusgnz5784]

8 years later, still a Hall of Fame Podcast episode for the generation or any generation that is at the point we’re at now. 2022

[@EmilyKresl]

this is therapy for my weary soul. thank you kevin and scott for being you

[@bryceflowers2323]

Emily Kresl it's nice to see you back here after two years, I do the same thing. Emo Kev never fails to make me laugh.

[@EmilyKresl]

Bryce Flowers dude its a good thing it doesnt show how much i actually listen ti this you would all think I'm psycho. Lol funny how we cling to free delicious therapy so hard lol

[@n543576]

LMAO!! 1:25:48 "the batman phase" this was by far some of my favorite podcast eps by Kevin smith and his recent ep's about him recovering after the heart attack with the recording he made before he went to film school was excellent. I think stuff like this is just why I respect and genuinely love Kev and Scott so much, they both bring something to the conversation that makes and otherwise "cringe" video into a true masterpiece, their openness(in particular Kev's) is so humbling and yes even I admit I was and at some point still am EMO Kev lol. But stuff like this where I can laugh at some of my darker comments because I know its all a process and im not alone in feeling that way sometimes makes it a lot less isolating Im really happy they did this, thanks for uploading dude.

[@ChampionCinemaPod]

"Did I mention the rack system?" is the moment I always come to when I need to laugh. Never fails.

[@Drellistenstomusic]

Scott sounds like a chill, level dude.

[@uriah9559]

the yin to kev's yang

[@imascooby1985]

I was hoping someone made a compilation of all of these so i can have a re-listen. This made my week!

[@stuarthorseman6025]

I must of listened to this a dozen times now and it always makes me feel better. There are so many great moments in it and I am so happy Kev shared it. I would love a Mr Parlo bumper sticker, and I still have my rack system in a box in the garage...

[@austinturner1796]

I'm in Detroit, listening to 2 guys in California, 9 years ago, listen to a guy from New Jersey, almost 30 years ago. Love me some Emo Kev.

[@SeanTheOriginal]

"Should I answer the door?" "Dreams aren't real and you can ignore them." "I know I'm capable of happiness, I just forget how." "I'm the king of dark notions." "You don't revel in the wonder of you." "The mighty sea wants to greet you, Kevin Smith. It has things to tell you." Those are some of the best quotes of our generation.

[@leviamsel3840]

SeanTheOriginal Or any generation...That's at the point that we are now.

[@JosephRDBenjamin]

SeanTheOriginal y'all fukin dumb.

[@RckFilms1993]

"did I mention the rack system?"

A 24 karat case of love

[@Psilocybin77]

you forgot a shadow of my former self looking back at me.

[@johnthorp3649]

I'm working from home because of Covid 19. These Podcasts are making that so much easier. I am howling

[@call.it.karma37]

I listened to this for the first time in '13 in an apartment I no longer live in, chopping vegetables for a slow-cooker pot-roast on a winter Sunday afrernoon. So comfy. I've listened to this thing 10+ times since. It's comfort food, y'all.

[@AllofJudea]

What else did you eat that day

[@call.it.karma37]

​@@AllofJudeayour mom.

[@matthewbrooks4535]

I can listen to this a hundred times over and it never gets old.

[@thefdvproduction]

How many times have I listened to this? Probably too many times but I'm sport this is just pure comedy gold!

[@DanimationMovies]

I’ve returned to these episodes so many times. It’s incredibly comforting to hear them reflecting on twenty year old kev’s angst and sadness with laughs and reassuring words, gives me the feeling that things are gonna be ok

[@MrCorombes]

"Oh... Did I Mention The Rack System?" OMG I'M DYING KEV! This is great!

[@MrCorombes]

+Eric Corombes never mind "Spitting Into The Ocean Is A Lot Like Life" thats the best.

[@adams1458]

dude Kevin was so fucking cringy angsty..... i love him even more for this. 1:38:00 24 karat case of love 😂

[@EmilyKresl]

to revive the soul everyone listen to this repeatedly for three months

[@anonymousguy1188]

Emily Kresl Rocks how does this serve purpose to your soul? Not sarcastically asking at all, I'm being very sincere wondering how undeveloped thoughts of needing purpose and over dramatising it is helpful?

[@EmilyKresl]

@@anonymousguy1188 if you listen to this in full you would know exactly what I mean. It fills your heart meter and makes you reevaluate life and lets you laugh at being emo itself in a safe place while providing rich knowledge and harsh lessons in relationships, confidence, loyalty, love and the value of a rack system.

[@cursedspongebob5647]

love it so much .thank you for keeping me company in the long nights. This has inspired me to paint a picture for Kevin

This is the greatest thing I've ever listened to lol

[@DeannaBanana]

I can never get enough of these earlier podcasts 😂 long live emo Kev!

[@coleshane5967]

I have a 24-carat case of love for emo kev.

[@HeyElvisG]

my favorite moment is Kev and Mosier saying at the same time, "in other words, the current generation." It always gets me.

[@leviamsel3840]

I have seriously listened to this every night since my last post. From 1-5:30 AM. Then I can go downstairs and bake cookies!

[@Joe_Karably]

Hands down my favorite episodes of Smodcast. Cracks me up every time.

[@odinson99m]

Still my All-Time favorite episodes and one of the funniest things ever.

[@sydandtaytum]

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS...i only started listening to smodcast this past year, so i would've never known about this if you hadnt posted it. and thanks for editing it together so i dont have to go to back episodes to find it

[@josephhoangdang6770]

I listen to this so often and you'd think it'd get old eventually but nope. Fucking slays me everytime.

[@EmilyKresl]

Back for another round. Gets better everytime. Thank you emo Kev

[@MartianInAHumansBody]

one of the best things ever, listening again after years, its so darn funny

[@thefdvproduction]

Sin City starring Kevin Smith "Should I Answer The Door" "McDonalds.... An Empire!"

[@MatticusFinch1820]

These are absolutely hilarious. I wish I had recorded myself as a kid so I could look back and give myself some shit

[@demonicar]

I’m not the biggest fan of Kevin Smith, but this is one of the most entertaining podcasts of all time. I listen to it every few months. I wish he would find some more old recordings.

[@Nyleao4Reel]

Hearing “24 karat case of love” in 4:30 Movie made me more happy than I could accurately describe to anyone else in the room with me 😂

[@That_Random_Bloke]

3:26:43 “The mighty sea wants to greet you Kevin Smith” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@SonicRyan1992]

wow, Emo Kev really sounds like Dante

[@uncensored008]

That's good cause Smith modeled Dante to be like who he was back then.

[@ronaldodemetriusescondido3626]

"Music's Big.......& ITS ONLY GETTING BIGGER, OLD MAN!!!!!!!" 😆😅🤣🤣

[@AL13NM]

We NEED an Emo Kev movie Dark Notions, or movies!

[@angelicagarcia641]

This the best audio of all time.

[@J-Rap727]

This episode helps me thru my darkest times

[@frankeckhardt9657]

A little after 1hour 38 minutes in is the hardest I've ever heard Scott laugh on this podcast. 24 Carat case of love.

[@mattpastori5059]

Please please please don't ever delete emo Kev this is gold!!!!

[@m.adampriest7719]

I fuckn love these episodes. I remember hearing them years ago and forgot how funny this is. 👏👏👏👏🤣🤣🤣

[@farls1290]

on my 6th bday... "It's chilly out, wet... I like it. It would be a Kevin sort of day, but I'm still going to work... it's only six and a half hours."

[@atv_]

Its so obvious where the flowery, almost shakespearian dialogue of the first clerks came from lol

[@NoMoreLiesOrDeception]

At King of dark notions, i spat my drink out 🤣😂🤣

[@-UseSoap_]

Still the best. I miss these two shooting the shit with each other on the regular.

[@Nyleao4Reel]

There’s something to be said about this being funnier to me every few years. The farther I get from Emo Kev the more I understand the Kev laughing at him 😂

[@mjspresents]

Emo Kev was getting action! I wish I had emo kev's problems. Current Kev is the man, tho.

[@lordcrucible1173]

Always come back to this for a laugh!

[@lordcrucible1173]

Wrecked the buffet?

[@odinson99m]

"24 karat case of love." LOL!!!!

[@katevand]

this is healing my year 2022

[@josephcarr8278]

I wish someone would make a compilation like this for TESD Houston. I have fan-made compilations of TESD Making Hay 1 & 2,& Hollywood Babble-On Comic-Con Theater:Batman Cacophony,or else I'd want them too. But if you ever get the time,I'd really like a TESD Houston compilation. Great job on this!

[@JosephCantuTV]

Are you from Houston? And when tf did tesd come to my city?? And just asking because I feel no one where I live even knows what a podcast is

[@dylantib]

Haha it's nice to know I wasn't the only scrub 19 year-old

[@ablinkontime9890]

Back again! Never enough emo kev!

[@silentnoah]

It's interesting to hear how Kevin felt as a 20 year old, being 20 myself. I kinda understand him. Especially the part about loving yourself.

[@AllofJudea]

How's it going. You'll be 30 soon. All downhill from there.

[@AcidropOSY]

Emo Kev=Dante

[@whiplashfilms]

+AcidropOsy He even sounds like Brian O'Halloran as Dante here.

[@SuperWillHatch]

Evo Ken finally shat and got off the pot, unlike Dante. :P

[@mjmarron3976]

scott: welcome to another episode of dark notions

[@call.it.karma37]

Every human alive should listen to this. It's important for everyone's development. It's peak SMod, it's peak comedy. And the rack system.. c'mon. 24k case of love.

[@EmilyKresl]

"Revel in the wonder of you."

[@PeteSanctions]

Kevin laughing sounds like Stimpy snoring

[@EmilyKresl]

Still amazing.

[@BillySpenc]

emo kev is an experience

[@jasonfigueroa1982]

My favorite podcast period

[@jeremys6370]

This is so silly. And I love it!

[@odinson99m]

This is the greatest thing I've ever heard!!! lol

[@mufcmike7]

Does anyone know the smodcast episode where Kevin talks about his wife dating character actor Max Perlich?

[@BiginAlabama]

This reminds me of a book I read called "How far is never?" about a guy obsessed with The Smith's. Emo Kev and the protagonist "Joe Green" could be the same person.

[@jojoface4940]

No... no they couldn't

[@jayhuse5467]

I really needed this!!! Lol

[@fshoaps]

25:16 - speaks to me, very much.

[@usethename9487]

I am where emo kev is right now

[@ajallen128]

God, the show never got better than this.

[@distination0]

Kevin is always interesting! Love the burn in hell cast, too!

[@joeyv47]

Absolutely LOVED SMod RIP❤

[@inordertowatchstuff]

thank you for this

A man, a dream. A burger with ketchup, mustard and a pickle.

The mighty sea wants to meet you Kevin Smith 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@cbfdxbxsb]

Emo Kev reminds me of 16 year-old me.

[@brendenf244j]

he laughs different with Scott

[@mikeyfjune]

Where can I access they old smodcast episodes?

[@ILoveRavenclaw9]

I think you have to sub to Kevin Smith Club. Inconvenient because I wanna see early stuff just to hear offhand comments they make that are indicative of the times. Hearing when Kev started smoking weed would be cool too

[@whalinboi1461]

Emo Kev sounds like Dante, in my opinion. So this feels like a clerks prequel, to me.

[@beckerboy1225]

Emo Kev just needs a hug. :-(

[@tbranch227]

Kevin's at his best with his friend Scotty Mo

[@HeyElvisG]

the irony that kevin said he wonders if he will ever listen to SModcast 20 years from now and judge his comments. Technically he's already done that twice within 8-9 years of these episodes. In episode 300 him and Mosier listened to their first ever episode, and I forgot what episode, but when Prince died said he replayed where he talks about his Prince encounter.

[@andreford5979]

This is so goddamn funny

[@think-like-a-director-prod6648]

And too think we have the 430 movie now from this

Confiscate the tapes and post them.
