[@jamesandtheshame]

Thanks for having me boyz! I've now watched all 67 parts of Skibidi Toilet and have developed an even deeper sense of existential dread

[@ladyrose9386]

What do u think about it? Lmao. I stopped watching it around ep 47 I need to keep up…

[@Fall_Spectacular]

It was really cool seeing you in a different environment. I’m a NC fellow as well; think MerleFest. I just wanted to say hello and I love the long hair and all the growth. The first video on GMM that I watched was “Will it taco?!” 🌮

[@zarazen8110]

jarvis explaining the skibidi toilet lore to rhett feels like when i tried to explain minecraft to my dad at 10 years old

[@plushbats]

8:16 i was raised mormon, mainly due to my dad, and my maternal grandmother always told my mom that after she dies, she better not “make her a mormon”. when she did pass, my dad pressured her to do a baptism for the dead for her (and a temple sealing with her ex husband, to make matters worse) and she caved. on the way home from the temple, my mom got VIOLENTLY ill and they had to pull over. it could’ve just been from nerves and guilt, but my mom was always convinced that she was being punished by her mom for going against her wishes. she always regretted it.

[@emankhan2140]

That's more than kind of messed up that your dad pressured your mom to do that

[@plushbats]

@@emankhan2140it was extremely messed up! it wasn’t his decision to make. they eventually divorced and we all left the church, he was the only one of us who was ever truly invested in it

[@plasmathespaceproto701]

I don't know if it's possible but theres a chance you could move her grave? i've heard of it happening before

[@lunaskisses]

I once went into this metaphysical store and there was a warning about stealing. i don't think it was the regular "you're being recorded, theft is punishable blah blah" but more of a casual sign that said something unique about being punished for stealing I remember seeing it and not thinking about it much and I pocketed a pentacle necklace "for protection" as I was just really starting my craft at 13 and was living in an abusive household. within 30 seconds I felt unbelievably nauseous and I'll and decided to go outside to get some fresh air. I git outside and walked up to the car door, car parked directly in front of the shopdoor & up against the sidewalk, and before I could even grab the handle I began vomiting profusely. so much vomit. i had just eaten McDonald's, and I threw up an unbelievable amount of strawberry shake, fries, and chicken nuggets. it was absolutely _more than I even ate,_ as when we got home I _continued to vomit for another half hour into the tub._ that day I learned that magic is _absoluely real._ whatever curse befell me seemed to continue on for _years_ as i went through literal hell, manipulated into sort of causing the events that led to my own unwarranted and false imprisonment for 3 years, homelessness/couch surfing several months after the imprisonment, isolation and bullying during it, multiple assaults of different kinds, and an abusive relationship, all before I found the pendant, took it to the river (fire hadn't worked), prayed deeply to be forgiven and washed of my transgressions by the universe and my gods, and gave the pendant to the river to be cleansed. afterwards, shit seriously settled down quite a bit. not sure if the hell I experienced was linked to the pendant as I don't know why a 13 year old would be punished so severely but it certainly feels like it was.

[@gagekunz5887]

I totally agree that it is super messed up that your dad did that, however, according to Mormon religion a person can refuse those “works” that people do on this side of the veil. That doesn’t excuse what your dad did at all but hopefully it gives you some piece of mind

[@kateprice7417]

Im gen z, not gen alpha, but i think the reason skibidi toilet has so much appeal is because it feels like an inside joke. Like how sometimes you have jokes with your friends that you could never explain to other people (the context/joke itself but also just why its funny), and this feels like that but its more like a whole generation's inside joke. I have a little bit of faith in these kids, that they dont sit down to watch these videos and go "hm yes that was excellent entertainment". Its that it's fun to send stupid things to your friends, its fun to say "skibidi" in front of your teacher/parents when they have no clue what it means, and it's fun to follow the ridiculous lore now. It's not that their humor is that different from ours, its that we all kinda forgot how dumb we were when we were 13.

[@julesmadison1199]

I agree with this, it reminds me of when I was on the younger end of high school and saw shrek is love, shrek is life for the first time. Or salad fingers. Both were kind of a right of passage, once you’ve seen it you’re in on the joke or you’re kind of cooler for knowing about it. There’s been weird shit for every age.

[@kateprice7417]

@@julesmadison1199 exactly!! What i had in mind was "Llamas with Hats" kind of stuff. Or Charlie the Unicorn. I watched that stuff as a kid too. It was kinda gross, stupid, funny at the time... all the things gen alpha probably sees in skibidi toilet

[@landendays]

I'm gen Z borderline gen A and have younger gen A cousin, and y'all are spot on and i love that you're so understanding about it. every generation has their unique portion of inside jokes and absurd, kind of meaningless, and immature humor. each generation's portion is just spoken in a different language :)

[@raisinghelle]

jarvis saying you can have a hobby that doesnt turn a profit is really relieving to hear. Im a pre-med bio major in uni and a visual artist on the side. Things in the STEM world are very career driven and i carry that over into my art very frequently when i dont need to. Its really nice to be reminded that i can just make art to enjoy it, it doesnt have to be something im working towards as a career.

[@InquisitorLavellan]

Yes, I love this too. I graduated in a STEM field (Biology) years ago, and I love writing as a hobby.

I went into studying visual arts after high school cause I wanted to make it my career, and I was miserable. It took me a very long time to get comfortable with my art and the fact that I do it for me and not for profit, or an audience. Took me ten years to go back to watercolours actually haha So kudos to you, it is a very liberating realisation! :))

[@melikatalks7676]

Man I'm 25 and I watch Skibidi but I swear there's so much to be said in terms of media analysis about this. I was watching way dumber stuff when I was 10. This show may seem ridiculous to yall right now, but it has actual production, sound design, great music choices, and so many references to actually great pieces of media that kids will be exposed to. I also disagree that "there's nothing to hold onto" about the show. This guy is clearly very good at creating suspense, introducing characters and making the audience invested. It's pretty much a meta sorta joke. The thing is making fun of itself. I can go on a whole rant about it, honestly.

Its fascinating how seperate different segments of the internet were even back in 2006. I assumed that Rhett would have known about Gmod because of how prevalent it was on early youtube. It never occurred to me that he wouldnt recognize the animation style and the beats of the gmod animation genre. The internet really is a big place, and it makes me wonder what I "missed"

[@onyxgothicc]

this is thw first time i've ever heard this exact sentiment spelled out! i always wonder if there are these bigger pockets of the internet golden age that i "missed out" on. the only thing i can compare it to is growing up listening to emo music and discovering pop songs that were big when i was a pre-teen later in life.

[@Jakefromstatefarm755]

I feel like rhett got into KZbin later on it wasn’t a thing until my man’s Was almost 30

[@CarysCantDance]

There’s a drag queen named Flamy Grant (named after Christian pop singer Amy Grant) who’s a former worship leader. She makes progressive Christian country/rock music, and she recently topped the iTunes contemporary Christian charts which really peed off a lot of conservative Christians and televangelists. She was also put forward for Grammy consideration, but they moved her from the Christian music category to the pop category because there’s a song on her album that includes the word “cock”, and apparently that automatically disqualified her from the Christian category (the song itself was about sexism in the church, and I can’t remember the exact lyric but it was something along the lines of “I didn’t know having a cock was a prerequisite to being a church leader”). I’d love for Rhett to duet with her after hearing him talk about his deconstruction and his music!

I'm in my early 30s and this video is how I learned about Skibiddi Toilet. I joked about Skibiddi Toilet at work the other day, and one of my clients told me she stopped letting her son (now 3 years old) watch Skibiddi Toilet videos because she worried it was impeding his potty training/scaring him, but that was a false alarm.

I feel like Skibidi Toilet is just exactly what a majority of middle schoolers find funny, which is why it is popular. From my experience, a lot of their humor is randomness for the sake of randomness. The thought process that “I don’t get this, I’m getting out of touch” is simply because people don’t regularly interact with kids age 10-13, the target audience. Middle schoolers like stuff because they like stuff, there isn’t that much more to it. That’s not bad, it’s not good, it’s just how people work.

This was all while she was sitting on my lap kind of flopped over staring off into the distance while she talked having a lovely time and I didn’t have the heart to stop her 🧸 Love her like chocolate ❤ but I did come to understand the emotional and mental state of an animal that would chew its own leg off to get out of a trap!

[@Josieeeeeeeeeee]

i think you guys aren’t realizing that the people genuinely enjoying skibidi toilet aren’t 15, they’re like 5. it’s generation alpha. its caused a lot of discussion about where that generation is going.

[@ccb36]

Yeah my students who are 7-13, and the fifth graders I volunteered with, are the ones who most often reference it. Definitely not teenagers lol

[@Timbeon]

Skibidi Toilet just seems like gen alpha's Badger Badger Badger, surrealist dada humor is pretty timeless

[@SlantedSpines]

I felt called out twice during this: once when you mentioned not turning crocheting into a business (I was crocheting throughout this entire video) and then at the end with the comfort-watching/multi-tasking discussion lol

[@electricechoemporium]

I feel like skibidi toilet is fully in line with what SFM animation/music videos have been doing for years with creators like an0nymoose and Eltorro64. I also think the evolution of skibidi toilet is not that surprising, dark subversions of funny/cute material is rampant on youtube as well (mickey mouse/goofy in the vietnam war, existential crisis ronald mcdonald). And the source assets also lend themselves well to creating a dystopian warzone. But these tropes reaching such a big audience is definitely new.

[@virtualprimatologist]

It has been such a TREAT finding this podcast, great convos with lovely people, also the outro song fucks

[@erin1912]

i highly recommend the new rhett and link sketches!! the haunted house one they just put out was so fun

[@antikbontik]

i love watching 3 very very short petite men talk its so fun

[@mrrd4444]

I just started this episode but I wonder if they mention the fact that Rhett has basically the same last name as very Irish Jacksepticeye, which might help track the origin of the name

[@OGimouse1]

The way Benedict Cumberbatch looks medically British, Rhett looks medically Irish American--he doesn't look Scottish. It took me a couple trips out there to get it. Yes: a common ancestry. No: not the same. It's wild.

[@Zephyrs]

Thanks for introducing me to Skibiti toilet. I just watched all 67 episodes in a trancelike state and am now somehow hooked on this nonsense

[@meganolson4891]

"No one is going to know this movie, the internship" Jarvis that is like me and my husbands most favorite movie to watch together. I love that movie. Interesting to hear the insight on the cali vs georgia locations.

Who's still watching this in 2045?

[@haydenhunold4698]

I am sprinting to the comments bc Jarvis I DO KNOW THAT MOVIE. The Internship is actually one of my favorite movies of all time!

[@choreomaniac]

I went to Stanford from 1993-1998. I saw The Social Network when a neighbor in an airplane was watching it. It took three seconds of viewing to pick it apart as being nothing like the Stanford experience. Just the little things.

[@ThePenGass]

It's the way rhett puts things into perspective that keeps me engaged with subjects I don't care about ❤

[@an0mie1]

I've said Howdy for years. Glad someone is actively trying to bring it back. Also, Radiohead is an example of that type of band, Rhett

[@SLYCoopaEatsChicken]

If I’m emailing multiple people at work I always open with “howdy folks” lmao 🫡

[@CloudNotFound]

Are you saying that you think Radiohead has been chasing trending sounds for decades?

[@an0mie1]

absolutely not!@@CloudNotFoundJust that they're tapped into what's relevant as it changes

[@CloudNotFound]

@@an0mie1 Phew. Reality was starting to feel melty around the edges there for a second lmao.

[@zachmiller9175]

I relate so much to the "I'm really here" feeling, I'm a long haul truck driver and constantly get those feelings whenever I drive through a part of the country I haven't been before but have seen in movies or TV or heard a song about.

[@mythcat1273]

I'm in high school, yet every time I see anything skibidi toilet related I feel like my grandchildren just checked me into a fucking nursing home.

[@gilliangilliangillian]

I resonate so much with Rhett's deconstruction and I'm so happy that there were moments of talking about that in the middle of other conversations. I'm another one of those who watched GMM as a kid and I'm so excited to see what's next on the R&L channel :D

[@michaelahankins4295]

Rhett is incredibly respectful

[@FruityCarnation]

RHETT AND JARVIS LET'S GOO

[@Howdidyouknow04]

My grandpas side of the families last name is Bourke and it was supposed to be Burke but when they came over to America from Ireland they didn’t know how to spell it so it because Bourke.

[@axquinn]

jarvis Johnson can make me watch anything

[@GothBunny6669]

I enjoy Rhett’s laugh.

[@gracedell]

39:30 idk why but i was so shocked when he mentioned crocheting. like that’s a widely known thing but i’m crocheting while watching this and it surprised me.

[@imbarbaraann]

i ABSOLUTELY LOVE the internship my dad showed it to me when i was little (skipped the inappropriate scenes). I’ve also lived in the bay my whole life!

[@michaelchen2718]

I have to say, I LOVE the mint shirt, rhett!

[@aidanann3140]

Rhett is just so stylish. Every outfit I’ve seen him in the last couple of years has been SO good

[@leadstomach9397]

16:06 episode of um, actually! Can’t wait to watch!

[@parkerettinger3350]

"No one is going to know this movie" - names my favorite movie 😅

[@resintom852]

Wow okay Jarvis coming for the crochet community was NOT what I was expecting this morning 😮😢

[@SwagLikeClem]

rhett is a bean lover dont let his back tracking change your mind

[@mickiebmw]

I obviously clicked on this for the funny laughs of Rhett being subjected to skibiddi toilet. And there definitely was laughs and comedy throughout. But I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the insightful discussions.

[@inflatablesoup1084]

Being super early is wild, you can watch the likes ticker go up in real time, I've never noticed that before

[@evie.clare.]

I just saw it happened after reading your comment lol

[@bhperfig349]

the way jarvis said vancouver hurt my soul.

[@Shooky_pink]

really loved rhett on the pod! would love to see him come back

[@jdeakin7592]

i deeply have loved the interview since i was young it’s so enjoyable for you to make that connection like i wanted to know anything more about the details of it and shooting thank you jarvis

[@MrsxEdwardCullen96]

I can’t believe you are talking about skibidi. At first, I thought it was “skippity” because I found out about this from a girl in the 2nd grade who promptly told me the whole skibidi lore during a 30 minute recess and drew me a picture of it with a knife. Children are our future. Another great sad podcast

[@personreviewslife]

Habsburg! I got recommended the same thing and had the same "why would you do that?" Also I just heard Xiao Xiao... I was all over those animations.

[@pinkish410]

Jarvis: I got recommended a corner of KZbin that is kind of offensive Jordan: what? Ugly Guy KZbin? LMAO how did no one catch that 🤣 I died

[@cr0wnofrhts]

really loving the concept of “showing rhett and link the part of the internet that they don’t understand” thing going with them as guests, would love to see them on again!

[@insertlaughter]

I love that jordan watched blackadder growing up. Im american but i watched a lot of british tv growing up. I knew rowan adkinson from blackadder, not mr bean. I remember absolutely blowing my college roommates mind showing her that show, she couldnt wrap her head around the fact that he is not american - which is funny to me bc he is also clinically english in my mind

[@reaganmoore27]

The James and the Shame taking away from GMM/parasocial relationship/not turning a profit related to a hobby part of this chat was so true, I wish more people thought the way they discuss it here

[@Emily42069]

Can't believe one of Jordan's ancestors killed someone #canceled

[@user-nc1ow9zg5r]

What a coincidence, I just rewatched the Link episode last night! So excited for this
