[@Conner100]

The last 30 minutes of this episode definitely makes it one of my favorite official podcast episodes ever.

[@Lasikisal]

Kaya is literally a horse

[@AltraHapi]

From toilets to salt to even what are ants. This episode is going on the history books of the official podcast

[@Bishop985]

same i love this ep

[@epicthief]

The ramp up to the last 30mins is epic

[@higoodbye7545]

When Charlie and kayas cats both showed up around 6 min, I knew it would be a good one too

[@sunfish9341]

even when andrew has his camera on it still looks like the still image

Always does. He's like a still image being moved around by editing

Andrew displaying his stoicism

[@eggy7346]

Kaya always knows how to give a good hook to a personal story "So I was in Urgent Care"

[@starsnwillows]

1:23:25 genuinely the hardest I've laughed in years. "what the fuck are ants" oh my God I can't breath

[@bayoubastard4015]

Its the pure confusion on kayas face and the delayed laughter from the boys that makes it so good 😂😂

[@Newt2799]

I couldn’t help but burst out laughing at the pause after he said that

[@emiami458]

I liked how he called them animals because bugs are animals too.

[@Ilivedbih]

​@@emiami458 Ofc, very important too. Makes me sad people hurt them for fun.

Every great kaya story starts with “So I was at Urgent Care…”

[@Braydonut]

[@sweew1025]

Kaya looking up ants was the funniest thing

[@mrsolecrab]

I was not expecting the last 15-20 minutes to take such a sudden turn and be the funniest shit I've ever heard

[@King_Jamo430]

the last ten minutes of this episode had me in tears no exaggeration. thinking of kya brainlessly licking his bed side salt like bedside water is so funny i think of his pupils getting huge like the horse from adventure time as he licks it

[@hansvillenews]

Holy shit the last thirty minutes is a masterclass podcast moment

[@MrAdamkidding]

4 confident Giga-Chads discuss the world (all cameras on, rare), colorized- circa 2023

[@Daily_Meat_Dealer]

When kaya gets into ranting about something he can’t stand on twitter it produces some of the funniest moments of the episode every time

[@callummcneill6266]

Or it turns into him ranting and being annoying. Its a coin flip

[@timer4164]

[@PanMat2000]

We are very lucky that this happened to be one of like three episodes when all the cameras are on because we were blessed with seeing everyone's reactions to Kaya's wild tale

[@Uracil-hn5tx]

Well, that did take a turn there towards then end XD. "What the fuck are ants?" Had me in physical peril even though I was already losing it from the assumption that salt can attract ants.

[@MsFyneChyna]

Such a funny episode “what the fuck are ants” 😂

[@milkman7221]

Kaya saying “What the fuck are ants?” Is now my favorite podcast moment.

[@Xythol]

Damn Kaya looks great in this episode, the lighting, angle, and background all work really well together.

[@BerzinskyMusic]

God that last topic with Kaya was so fucking beautiful hahahaha. I laughed so hard I had to listen to it multiple times. God that was beautiful. From the shitting naked to the salt. Amazing. One of my favorite episodes off that alone. Also happy to see everyone's face ❤

[@kiraya87]

I'm so happy you guys didn't stop when someone said to wrap it up^^ that last bit was just incredibly good! was grinning like an idiot during work and had to hold my laughter back so much xD else people would think I'm a maniac!

[@Novsev9069]

1:25:56 imagine Hansel and Gretel but instead of eating a house of candy they eat a house of salt😂😂

[@sukkyoubus]

I didn’t get the image at first but that’s Kaya’s salt lick. Hahahah, this episode was gold. 😂🎉

[@sophiaisabelle01]

These podcast episodes sure are worth the watch. We appreciate Charlie's effort and hard work all the way.

[@RGBY-tv4hg]

Batchest

[@mollago]

I've never heard Kaya reference his wife until 3 times this episode

[@chungushimself3712]

Tell Jackson I can see his mic really well and it looks nice.

[@GameRelic]

Seeing Kaya out of frozen carbonite puts a smile on my face

[@emperorbartu2414]

One of the best episodes 😂

[@kgaventura13]

The ending to this episode is wild lol!!

[@tiffanycross2024]

This is my first time listening to the podcast and OMG I haven't LMMFAO in a very long time 😂🤣! I've been watching Charlie for only a couple of months and love his content. But this podcast just made me a Fan Woman. Thanks guys for keeping it real. In Peace & Friendship

[@kimchiuseless5428]

Honestly in the same boat about Salt with Kaya, I will die proudly on this hill

[@CujoGBC]

"he has to order a hoover max to get out of here" is the best charlie quote of this episode

[@disk3001]

I love how Kaya is going off on Twitter verification and casual states how much he's willing to go to troll his friend Sigma move right there

[@Spiriax]

Awesome episode. Appreciate you putting on the cam, Kaya.

[@yourbasicninja]

Kaya is clearly saltistic

[@Arkyubus]

34:00 for anyone that is curious the code names for recent Xbox are as follows: Xbox One and One S: Durango Xbox One X: Scorpio Xbox Series X: Scarlet Xbox Series S: Lockhart For recent PlayStation you have: PS4: Orbis PS4 Pro: Neo (the PSVR was code named Morpheus) PS5: Gemini

[@Creepin_Jesus]

"Happy Wife, Happy Life Happy Deer, Oh Yeeeaahhh" Sounds like something on a shirt Santa wears on the off season

[@ohlordy4567]

Keeping a block of salt lick on your bedside table sounds like something Kramer would do lmfao

[@MistaBrandoVA]

“Oh a new podcast, I’ll listen to it with my dinner!” *Conversation about pooping in public and other germ related stuff*

[@brandonette4938]

It's nice to see you Kaya. I haven't seen you in person for quite some time now. Always better! Thank you!

[@beanmeister3630]

1:00:50 Okay but that piss waiting thing is so real

[@tigerfestivals5137]

The Vice documentary on manga/hentai was one of their worst in years. It was basically a hit pice that they were so cowardly about that they region blocked it in Japan.

[@DanArnets1492]

Meanwhile, "Schoolgirls for sale in Japan" is a masterclass exposing the whole economy of adult men paying to just be near teen girls, sometimes even underage ones

[@Sabaa_Olywi]

Jackson is absolutely right about the shitting naked, it feels liberating, freeing even. The fact that you guys tried it and didn't like it says a lot.

[@indianchad]

Salt stone that Kaya uses is called Alum in common english term and Fitkari in India and Nepal. Has many good uses including medicinal uses. Tastes different than regular salt. Rub it on your cheeks after a shave and it will feel cool and nice. Also good for skin in general. It is edible.

[@meathandsmans]

We need a salt lick teir list.

"I want to shit like a King, I want to shit like a God." So many memorable moments in this episode, legendary

@Jaime A. ambouttakuhm

[@bushyman477]

When i did water fasts for a few days, i would literally sprinkle rocksalt on my hand and lick it. Salts were important, but saltwater is gross...for some reason though, licking the salt off my palm adds other salts from my skin, and when you are hungry af, it tastes divine haha

[@earthwormjim9739]

I was listening on Spotify, but I heard kaya talking about salt and I had to come comment. I too love salty things. I keep a tiny bowl of flaky kosher salt at my desk at home, and I’ll take little pinches of it throughout the night when I’m gaming or watching something. And no, ants and bugs are not attracted to salt, ants need sugar and moisture. Salt would dry them out and just wouldn’t be desirable to any insect. If you’ve ever seen a salt mine, you would know they’re almost completely devoid of life. There are some like bacterias and micro organisms, but no bugs or animals.

[@meetbythecreek]

Never realized how much i appreciated no ads on these until they put them on.

[@princieq3942]

1:10:52 This whole segment to the end is completely insane, you guys are hilarious😂

Cyberpunk 2077 is one of my favorite games of all time.

I think Kaya might have a low mineral diet that would explain the salt fascination like a mountain goat.

[@throastpopoki1682]

Andrew's point about cyberpunk isn't a very good point, Cyberpunk releaseing in that stat caused CD projekt red's stock value to drop by over 30% on the day it came out and i think many companies took note on what not to do.

[@tigerfestivals5137]

It was still a financial success for them iirc. Many people bought into the hype and preordered it despite the many warning signs

[@Officer.K.]

this was a great episode, especially the last 10 mins

[@helixier6629]

I sometimes think kaya is the normal one but he keeps reminding us that it’s not true at all.

[@SkittlesKid]

39:54 paying the TV license is only mandatory if you watch the BBC. You dont have to pay it if you dont use their services

This was the most I’ve learned about Kaya in this episode than in the entire show 😂

It’s safe to say. The official podcasts has some weird ass bathroom rituals lmao

All I can think about now is Kaya taking a dump naked while reading a book about ants with also a giant block of salt on the sink counter. We need a cinematic universe around this.

You guys are totally wrong about zoom and Google. Zoom is not approved by government for use. Microsoft teams probably has like 50% market share of all business. And it deserves it for how much more than a conferencing app it is. I can't speak for Google though I'm pretty sure it's not HIPAA approved or government approved either.
