The Lost Tapes: Tape 2 • Are You Scared?

[@skcch1796]

I get that they were panicking but I can't get over how little danger they were actually in to begin with. Like ok you're trapped in a room... just shut up and wait until tomorrow morning and someone will let you out. You're not starving to death over night why are you immediately panicking and trying to break a window with birds.

[@honestlytho426]

Yes!!! Haha I was thinking this too. Like they said "it's 11 everyone went home" I'm like perfect so like 8 hrs??

[@Cin_Was_Taken]

Literally just sleep for a lil bit

[@skcch1796]

@@honestlytho426 Right? I kept expecting them to elaborate like, no one ever comes up to that floor or something at least 😭 but no they'd rather murder 12 birds and a mob of people than have to sleep on the floor

[@MrsGriffo1]

I think this is the joke, it's all rubbish, cheesy Hollywood horror movie plotline

[@Akosa117]

Yea this entire story has been these two wildly overreacting

[@ion6708]

I bet this happens every time Shane and Ryan try to come up w new video ideas

Not us leaking our own methods

[@danieljosephgarcia]

I started listening to the Magnus Archives as a result of this collab. Been following the ghoul boys since the start, and I can’t BELIEVE TMA wasn’t on my radar for the better part of the last decade. So glad to be listening now.

[@alanardominim]

Same! I watched this series over on WatcherTV and now I am on ep 83 of TMA, many thanks to Watcher for finally getting me to start TMA

[@emilybarclay8831]

Oooooooh boy

[@vengo4]

Me too! Loving it so far.

[@cevichegrace]

Glad to have you guys on board!! Strap in for the ride 💜

[@callizto1964]

I’m so glad you guys are listening to it!! Been listening since 2020, it gets better the further into it you get!!

[@ariadne6683]

The fact that Rusty Quill made a collab with a channel called WATCHER is so funny, especially for a Magnus Archive fan.

[@TomatenUndZwiebelSuppe]

There are so many people like the characters adam in the world. That do nothing but panic and make situations worse or more dangerous for everyone. They usually end up fine while getting others killed.

[@nothisispatrick1797]

my biggest pet peeve tbh

[@dearcopeebles5717]

16:02 I fell on the floor laughing. the way Shane said, "Gotta be careful with that one". lmao

[@nice2008c]

14:07 seems like the safest place to be is in that room. Everything happening outside is pure chaos and nothing highly dangerous is trying to get in the room.

[@fiflag]

As a tma and watcher addict I've been waiting for this so much and I'm now waiting anxiously for the next.

[@n.o.a.w.3264]

20:57 - 21:04 Tommy, babes, YOU gave Adam the Cursed Tea. YOU gave your anxious, talkative friend the ability to bring horror to life. Let's take a bit of responsibility here❤️❤️ (Also Adam, my beloved, you've gotta stfu🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽)

[@Analog_Anarchist]

Tripping on Mushroom Tea while inadvertently starting doomsday... Episode 3 will be fun

[@booksbybree]

Also the rioters coming after them was the result of Tommy’s words not Alex’s. He’s doing it too.

[@licia_bobishka]

I knew that tea was drugged from the first episode! I’m happy they didn’t make us wait until episode 3 to confirm. But yes if there was no tea, none of this would have happened. That’s on Tommy!

[@lindsay3408]

14:15 TMAG REFERENCE: of course these two bring out the apocalypse while alone in a room together

[@LizardtheWizard_]

hello Jon, apologies for the deception

[@kubradlklc3477]

nobody knows that I started watching Shane and Ryan, the same week I started listening to tma in 2020. nobody knows I almost cried when I heard who was voicing the characters in the first tape. this is like that Spiderman movie for me. my faves coming together like this...and now the second tape drops as I was looking for smith to watch on KZbin, the universe must have MY back.

Being a Rusty Quill fan, it's 10 times funnier when you recognize that the boys in this story are basically just what Jonny and Alex, horror podcast network writer/producers, look like irl. I can't help but picture the story being a genuine result of a late night brainstorming session that grew wings. Lol.

This is a reminder that there is actually a "bug apocalypse" right now-a massive die-out of bugs, insects, etc. Think about when the last time you dealt with bug splatter on your car window was.

[@osakarose5612]

Just this past fall when the snub-nosed brown butterflies swarmed. Thousands of them flying right into the windshield.

[@flori7246]

It's the way anyone who has listened to TMA or TMAGP carefully will be able to pick up on the subtle turnings and nuances of the writing here much more easily because they are familiar with Rusty Quill style of writing. Fascinating.

Omg I'm in love with this. After I saw the first part I was like this is getting good

18:12 the Magnus archives season 1

[@darth_emerald]

I'm intrigued to see how things wrap up, and how all this ties back into The Magnus Archives, story-wise. Personal theory at the moment is that Adam and Tommy are literally being used as conduits to allow The 14 Entities to start affecting their world or to bring The Magnus Archives podcast into their world.

[@kruddster1]

Between tape one and two, I discovered the magnus archive and am now like 90 episodes deep. hahaha

[@The_Purple_Panda]

I love you both❤. I am an atheist. I do not believe in imaginary creatures. But as a child, when I was 13 years old, I saw a shadowy creature in my grandmother's house. I was very scared and confused. The reason I follow paranormal threads now is to find an answer to what I saw. Was it a seizure, brain malfunction, or really something we're just not aware of? You are the only real researcher in this field, there is no lie in your work.

Has anyone here ever watched John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness? So far these tapes have been reminiscent of the movie. It basically has the same plot right down to the bug people. The only thing it doesn't have is the podcast angle that these tapes are working with. I'm almost willing to bet that the final tape will end the same way as the movie does which is that it turns out they were seeing glimpses of the apocalypse for reasons I will not disclose.

[@PokhrajRoy.]
