Hi, everyone. Welcome back to the main mic. My
name's Harper and I'm Mackenzie. I'm Zach. And
you're seeing us for the first time on video.
And if you're not viewing us, you are able to
click on our messenger website page. There's
the little podcast and underneath will be a link
to our YouTube channel, which will have the full
video like live going on. Yeah, we'll still post
the audio on the regular platforms, but video.
Now we have video. That'll be on YouTube. Yeah,
we're a bit tired right now. It took us, what's
the current time? Three hours. It has taken us
about three hours to get this video and lighting,
everything fixed up. My two shoes are being held
to keep that video camera set up and stable.
but we finally got it and I think by next week
we'll have it down to about maybe a 30 minute
setup instead of three hours. At this point I'm
not gonna make promises. It'll be better when
it gets better. It'll also kind of be difficult
to figure out how we're going to clip audio and
video together and edit them because it is it
being recorded in a separate little No, OBS is
picking up both audio and video. It is? Yeah.
OK. So I'll probably just extract the audio.
But that's a me thing. So I'll figure it out.
Anyways. But yeah. So you'll be able to see the
little jump clips and whatever we get cut. way
more vividly now, because Zach is really good
at smoothing things out to where it doesn't sound
like we cut things. Audio -wise. Audio -wise.
Can't exactly do that with video. Yeah, now with
the video, you're going to see clip, clip, clip,
clip, clip every five seconds, probably. But
we thought we might keep this a bit short. One,
because we're tired and we want to go home. And
two, because that recorder only has about 20
minutes of video left. There's a camera right
here with us. 20 minutes. Look at our sign. Yeah.
I love it. Anne. You might be able to see some
fingerprints on it. I'll bring my microfiber
cloth and clean it. I tried my best to wipe it
down with a... It's better than it was. It still
looks good, though. I think the fingerprints
are on the other side. It might be, but... Anyways.
I mean, we'll figure it out. We'll take one of
those little, like, dust things. Oh, yeah. See,
I have all that stuff at my job. that you're
supposed to go to in 20 minutes right well you'll
be leaving in 20 minutes actually no i won't
because i have to go finish recording for my
project all right but anyways um now that we
have all this sort of figured out we hope we
can give you a better experience with us more
more more us we're gonna have some activities
which i am going to reference i think We're basically
the next Smosh team. Yeah, this is the next Smosh
Reddit Stories. We even got the couch and the
chair. We got the couch and the chairs. And then
we just need to bring your tablet. I have my
phone. If we do get the same, it needs to be
a tablet. You're right. If we do get a coffee
table like they want, I think I don't think we
have enough room. I'm not completely opposed
to the shelf either. I think the shelf would
be a good idea. I think it'd be nice if we had
a shelf in the corner over there to like. have
just stuff that we need. I think it'd be nice
if our thing worked. Yeah, I think it'd be nice
if we had equipment that worked. It's OK. I don't
know if our audio will be able to pick up, but
the cameras should beep whenever they're really
low at battery. So that's our sign to wrap it
up. It's going to be even like two minutes. Yeah,
probably. Well, I think it might be if it beeps
the first time, I'll check because I might beep
at like 15 percent like phones do. But then if
it beeps at like five percent, then we just got
to wrap it up. Got it. Okay. So anyways, um,
yeah, I was mentioning the table because we can
do those games that they do too. Smosh games.
They do board games. We need to play board games.
You don't know what smosh is? You don't know
what smosh is? No. You're insane. You know every
anime basically, but you don't know what smosh
is. Hey. She does not know every anime. Well,
she's pretty knowledgeable compared to me. She
is. Very knowledgeable. For anything in the 2010s,
I would say. Nugen stuff, I'm not that knowledgeable.
Have you ever heard of Dragon Ball? Oh my gosh,
what is that? Do you know what One Piece is?
I have no clue. Avatar the Last Airbender? Not
an anime. It counts. Is it really not? It does
not count as an anime. A cartoon? No, it's a
cartoon. It's a really good cartoon, but it's
not an anime. It counts. In my mind, it counts.
But literally, anime is made in Japan. Avatar
is a... It's an American thing. Yeah, literally
by definition is not an anime Anyways Now you
get to see us bicker in person right I was telling
I think did I text in the group chat? I was like
we're gonna have to start figuring out how to
blur our middle fingers Yeah, you said that on
one of the episodes did I I think I also texted
it to Baptiste probably Maybe I didn't but I
won't be sitting here a lot. I'll probably Starting
soon. Hopefully again. No promises. We'll have
more guests on for every episode So I'll probably
just be in the back Like editing and doing stuff.
We have another camera that you will be able
to see it's what I'm yeah I might put on my webcam
from time to time in a conversation, but I will
not probably be a main voice on the podcast.
So. So we'll have other people on. He'll just
be in the back judging us. Like this is true.
Like he used to. And I will tell you to speak
louder if you're not being picked up, because
right now I can't tell if we're being picked
up. But to my knowledge, we are. I can see me
speaking. I can see you speaking. My Kenzie speak.
I can't even see anything. You're just quiet.
I'm quiet. No, I turned yours up. Bop, bop, bop,
bop. You're good. OK. My voice is just so much
louder. Should I scream? I don't. Yours is the
most turned down because you're a loud talker.
She's not. So hers is turned up more. I just
pushed my mic away a little bit. It's OK. Let
me see if it helps. We'll see. It doesn't matter.
Anyways, so. Yeah, now that we have all this
set up, we're going to do a lot more fun activities.
Maybe even pumpkin carving. I want to do pumpkin
carving. They have pumpkins for like $5 at Target
right now. I think we can do that. Or we can
get them cheaper at Walmart because I have a
discount card. That's true. You can also get
like $2 foam pumpkins that we can. It'd be better
if we got foam ones because then we can keep
them on display. Yeah, because then it won't
be a mess also. I just hit my mic. Oops. I can't
edit that out. I mean, I could, but I'm not gonna
now. Oh, don't even matter. Anyways. I don't
know what I'm going to edit this on. Adobe and
or CapCut. I'll figure it out. Adobe Cloud has
the whole thing. But I don't like Adobe's video
editing software. We can complain about that
later. I know, but we used that in class last
semester, and I didn't like it at all. We're
using that in my video production class. Yeah,
because it's Adobe, and it's free for school
students. Let's get to the news before we run
out of battery. Yeah, OK. If we run out of battery,
do we lose the video? No, I think it just stops
streaming on the thing. Perfect, amazing, lovely.
I love it. Mackenzie has, I believe, a little
bit more Your phone's probably visible because
you can see the, well yeah, because you can see
the table. Because of me. Like all my ice cream.
Anyways, her phone's there. You can see her little
on -air table. It looks cute. My little astronaut.
Adorable. You can see how we do this now. But
yeah, for news, on Monday, October 13th, there
is a fall merch and clearance sale at the bookstore.
And that is from 9 .30 AM to 2 .30 PM. So, you
know. Get your, get some stuff, some fall merch.
Get some cheap things, you know. Get a hoodie.
Yeah. There are some kind of cute things. Yeah.
They actually, the hoodies we have here are really
soft. Okay. I love the tech, like the fabric
and texture of all of our like clothes, the shirts
and everything. The little sweaters. I like them.
They're cute. They're very cute. And I need to
go and buy one. I like to buy stuff each semester
to signify like, you know, I've been here. That's
such a cute tradition. My sister started it because
she was at UMKC. She's like, yeah, I always buy
something. I'm like, OK, I'll do it too. Did
you see their blankets? No. They're so soft.
We have blankets? We have blankets, and they're
so soft. Buy a blanket. We have fall blankets,
and they're so, so soft. That sounds nice. But
what was I going to say? Oh, yeah. Keep going.
Keep going. I think we mentioned this last week,
but Cider at Sunset is on Tuesday, October 14.
And that's at 4 PM to 7 30 PM. at the open pedal
farm here at JCCC. So it's by the you're parking
in the police academy and the horticulture science
centers lot. And then you should you should see
it. And it's free. So free is always good. Right.
Usually, usually. Do more. Yes. So there are
the fall 2025 transfer takeovers. So on October
15, there's going to be Pittsburgh State. And
then on October 22, it's going to be Graceland
University. And then Kansas State University
is coming on November 5. Next, we have. The Phi
Theta Kappa are doing a nature walk on Tuesday,
October 14th, from 12 p .m. to 1 p .m., and that'll
be at JCCC's walking trail, and they are providing
trail mix and water. Trail mix. I don't like
trail mix. It depends on what kind. I like the
ones with M &Ms. We're also not certain which
ones we've already talked about, so we may have
mentioned these or similar events. Just go to
them anyways. We basically look at what flyers
are posted around online. There's also in your
MyJCCC, that's enough C's, account. You can hit
the Get Involved tab and in there you'll be able
to see a list, which is what I'm on right now.
And you can see all the upcoming events. The
only thing that we've had an issue with in the
past with the MyJCC is Events cancel and change,
so what we are reporting to you right now may
not be the most accurate and you will have to
check for yourself to see if things have changed.
But on that, do you have more? Just one last
thing. So the Joko conversations, that is on
Wednesday, October 22nd, and it's going to be
like... an author talk in the Hudson Auditorium
with Sarah Langan. I hope I'm saying that right.
I loved Squid Teeth, Squid Mouth, whatever it
is. No, it was Squid Teeth. You think it was
Squid Teeth? We did look her up. Because you
thought I said Squinting. Yeah, we did look her
up. And we're not necessarily making fun of her.
But we are very intrigued to know. On the book
title, Squid Teeth. It could be a really good
book. Yeah, we really. You know what my old Minecraft
username used to be? Squidgirl1234. My favorite
anime was Squidgirl as a kid. That's an anime?
Yes it is. Maybe you are knowledgeable in anime.
I told you I'm very knowledgeable. See, you haven't
even heard of it. Squidgirl. Sorry that I'm too
busy watching One Piece. The only anime that
you watch. But I'm not gonna watch Squidgirl.
It's good. It made me cry. I bet. I watched it
again and it still made me cry. All right, so
I have the obvious more political things that
are going on I don't have anything My job was
editing his job is editing he gets paid to edit
we get paid to talk so No, I was gonna mention
a go register to vote vote voting registry. Oh
my gosh go register to vote I know this may not
be clipped out And you may see my mistakes of
stuttering just now. Oh, well. But the voting
registration deadline is coming up. I believe
it will be the week that we post. It's the Tuesday,
I believe. But go register to vote. Make sure
that you're eligible. Type in your new address
if you've recently moved. If you have a new ID
card, update that. Just get everything in the
system. Make sure everything's correct. So you
were eligible to vote for November's election
coming up. um that will just be like johnson
county head of um districts and uh is this like
the year that we get a new mayor i don't know
i was gonna say isn't this the board of trustees
stuff i believe i mean i've been seeing a lot
of signs around i have been seeing some sort
of election coming like i'm getting the mail
and all that i'm getting a lot of sharish davis
emails and texts right now so Yeah, just registered
a vote for your county do your due diligence
as a citizen of Kansas Yes, and then and if you're
not from Kansas Still register to vote in local
elections Oh shoot I wanted to get the dates
right anyways I am not able to find it, but that
is a okay so coming up Here, I got it. Never
mind, never mind, never mind. On the lawn of
the corner of College Boulevard and Quivira.
So right where they practice all that army stuff
whenever that happens, if you guys are aware.
At 1 p .m. on Saturday, October 18th. So this
isn't for another week. So when this is posted,
you'll have an entire week to prepare. On Saturday
October 18th, there is a no Kings protest happening
on the Johnson County Community College lawn
up front college in Coovera and I Mean get your
signs protest or don't if that's not your cause
Do your thing? Yeah, but safe. Yeah, and just
if you're if you have a class on Saturday at
1 p .m Why would you do that in the first place?
It may be a bit busy traffic -wise, so just watch
out for that. But on top of that, there are a
lot more locations happening. So I'll just do
the main page, which is Saturday, October 18
in Gardner, Kansas, South Moonlight Road and
East Main Street at 10 AM. wine .county kansas
at the legends 106 and parallel parkway at noon

details at no kings .org or mobilize .us but
the ottawa kansas is the 1 pm And then Lawrence,
Kansas West six three and Kentucky Street is
at 5 p .m. So those are the Like area that because
everything else is like Wichita, Kansas or like
further so I'm sure there's gonna be a lot of
protests more of like Kansas City, Kansas Kansas
City, Missouri Missouri Missouri area, but Yeah,
if that's your thing go on ahead and go but just
letting you know that that's happening um because
i'm i haven't usually i don't see announcement
not obviously not announcements but posts or
anything for the protests around the area um
leading up to it i only ever see people posting
the protests yeah yeah so now that there's a
official location time date place etc I feel
like it's knowledgeable to share with you guys,
especially since we are the Johnson County Community
College and it is being held at our lawn. But
other than that, we do also have a did you talk
about the pumpkin patch at the cider mill? We
did last week. I think last week, Lewisburg Cider
Mill, Lewisburg Cider Mill. I can just re say
it just in case. Cider. Saturday, October 11th.
So the day after this is being posted. Yes. Okay.
So the JCSVA pumpkin patch visit, Saturday, October
11th at noon. It's at the Lewisburg Cider Mill.
You can get your own little pumpkin patch. Like,
what's the hayride? A hayride? Go on a little
hayride and visit the corn maze and drink cider.
That's what fall's for. Then we have like the
Weekly activities, which is like drop -in strength
training, yoga, D &D club, video game club. Same
usual clubs. Mario Kart is probably. They do
a lot of tournaments in the student lounge. They
do a lot of tryouts. Smash. Run in there and
win a contest or something. Or practice. There
is prizes. I think there might even be cash prizes.
Really? I think so. Maybe I'll do it. I'm pretty
good at Smash Bros. If I ever need some cash,
I suck at Mario Kart. And it is October and I
feel like we have failed to mention that it is
Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Is this true?
So, yeah. Where are your pink ribbons? We do
have a couple of awareness trees around campus.
There is currently one right below us. It's a
branch cluster. breast cancer awareness tree
hosted by the CSI. There's one in the com atrium
and another, but it doesn't say where. Go find
them. Yeah. Write scavenger on it. I think you
can write nice messages on it. You can find a
QR code next to it, I think, and donate. Probably
donate. Yeah. But those are posted around...
everywhere. Tuesday, October 14th, there is another
dental hygiene service available at Johnson County
Community College at Comtable. Must have been
a hit if they're going to keep doing it. They
do it like every other week. Oh, do they? I believe
so, yeah. Must be a good showing then, otherwise
I feel like they would stop. Yeah, the Tuesday,
October 14th, Tuesday, October 21st, Tuesday.
Actually, it's every Tuesday. Brush your teeth
and do this. donate money or if you haven't been
able to get a dental hygiene checkup in a while
maybe like insurance how much is it like 25 25
it's i feel like it's cheaper for students than
it is for johnson county residents but it's open
for everyone yeah it's open for everyone the
price is just different for everyone um we also
have the weekly quiz bowls the tech seminar is
friday october 10th which is the day that this
comes out i believe Then we have the open pedal
farmers market that you mentioned. We also have
the downtown Overland Park farmers market on
that Saturday. I believe it's 7 a .m. to 1 p
.m. and then we also have the river market and
other markets in Kansas City. A lot of markets
happen during fall. I thought the farmer markets
were done because it's getting cold outside.
No, the downtown Overland Park farmers market
goes into winter. Really? Yeah. It goes until
December 6. They just don't sell summer stuff
anymore. Yeah. I have these magnets that they
handed out last year that tells you what produce
they sell. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. Yeah, OK. I'll
send you a photo once I get home, and I'll show
you. Send us the photo of the magnet. But no,
they're super cute and I like I transfer them
or like like they're stackable So I have just
like this little stack of them on my fridge and
then whatever season it is like right now It's
not the autumn season. Obviously like it says
fall season availabilities, whatever For like
the 2025. I don't know. I don't know if they
change every season But I think it's just what's
harvestable at the moment and like what's pumpkins
pumpkins But yeah, no, there's a lot of events
going on right now. You can find flyers everywhere.
You can find posts on the Johnson County websites
and on the Instagrams that we have. I believe
we have Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, et cetera.
So if you guys want to go check those out, see
if there's anything that we missed that you guys
may be able to look up and find for yourself.
And if there's something we missed that you think
we should report on, go ahead and email us and
make sure that we do for sure. Get in for the
next episode surprise. I wasn't beeped yet. I'm
My camera's dead my camera's dead. Yeah That
one had more minutes than the other one I Don't
know how long you've been able to not see Harper
for oops, but you can hear her That's the thought
that counts. Just know this won't be an issue
because next time we will have fully charged.
We'll have more of an idea of what we need to
do. Now I can slouch, guys. Oh my god. Can't
really sit in the middle. There's no mic. Well,
we'll just end it here, I guess. Is there anything
else that's going on? Register to vote. There's.
the protests all the fall things that are happening
right now the um yeah i forgot about this one
the fall the 2025 holiday drive so it says that
there's just donation bins Oh yeah, I've seen
signs all over our lawns and they just point
you in the directions for where you can drop
off all these donations. So it's non -perishable
items and you can drop them off in the BNC donation
bins, which is the Student Basic Needs Center
donation bins. It's just like underneath the
lunch, right? No, the student... needs I believe
is right next to like world of video games. It's
next to the student lounge. Yeah. It's the GEB
153. Is there something that's underneath the
cafeteria that has like stuff you can grab if
you need it? You mean Cav Central? Is that what
that is? I don't know. I haven't been down there
in a hot minute. You might be thinking of Cav
Central which is the cafe. The cafe that's also
like a little bodega. Is there a cafe down there?
No, like you know the stairs that you literally
go down? Stairs that you go down and then there's
like that giant stairs that goes up but you're
walking past and you look straight forward and
there's like that glass. But there's like a nook
in the wall of like this place that has like
shelves of like basic stuff people could use.
Oh the flyers? Like cans of food and like...
Do you mean in the student center? No, underneath
the cafeteria. Underneath the cafeteria is...
calf central. I haven't been down there since
like two years ago. So check it out. So there
is a student like area underneath. Yeah. Pretty
sure it just has a bunch of like seating areas
in a bunch of. I remember there being like stuff
people could grab, though, if they needed it.
There might have been an event going on down
there. It is a study area. Yeah, because I used
to study down there. But if you need canned food,
then you can go into the Student Basic Needs
Center, which is right next to Student Lounge.
I'm surprised that our camera's still on. We
need better batteries. I'm surprised that that
one said it had 60 minutes, and the other said
it had 40. Mine died before yours. Anyways, but
yeah, that's where the Student Basic Needs Center
is. You can go and you get like a voucher. You
get a certain amount that you can like purchase,
but you just take it for free and just scan your
ID card. That's right next to the Student Center.
Not Student Center, the Student Lounge. And then
what I thought you were thinking of was our little
like bodega, which is Cav Central, right? No,
you're thinking of the little area. The little
cafe right next to the bookstore. In the student
center. What's that called? I don't know what
it's called. It's kind of like a gas station.
Yeah. I call it like a little bodega because
it has like gas station stuff. Yeah, and then
like the little food bar. Little cafe, yeah.
And then coffee. Oh, I wonder if they brought
back the cider drink. I haven't seen the cider
drink yet, but I have seen that lavender honey
thing. But also, that's always up. Yeah. The
lavender honey. They used to have a cider drink
around this time last year. And it was so good.
Well, if you guys are cameras off. Hey, so you
get to see nothing. So let's just end here. So
sorry. We'll figure this out. And first time
video. Yay. This time next week, you'll be able
to see us a lot better. And hopefully, it's easy
for Zach to edit. And it won't be that bad. It's
just going to be. And weird. Are we going to
need the graphic designer to edit things or will
we just use a clip from here? I guess we should
take a picture. I'll talk about that after. So
we did get a graphic designer. I don't know why
I'm looking at the camera. It literally doesn't
matter. We got a graphic designer for the messenger.
So if you've seen any of our cover arts on the
website for the images, they will be different
now. It's been me and or Harper. Recently, it's
been more Harper. But we did hire an official
graphic designer, so the art will be better.
Don't tell them. They'll know that I suck at
this now. I think it looked good. Mine was so
bad. It's OK. I don't know if I've seen yours.
It was bad. I'm really proud of my D &D one.
The D &D one was cool. But yeah. So they'll create
thumbnails for this, too. That's what I was leading
that up to. Amazing. Needed tell that teased
what it's about and then Chain of commands. So
you just like yawn. Yes Okay Hey, I don't need
to blur that. Yeah, there's no camera. I Don't
even know how long this has been running but
Hopefully this is enough time. I think we're
good. We got the information And I don't think
we needed any cuts for that No, I think we're
great. I think we're great. I think Harper, you
can start our outro. All righty. Thank you so
much for listening and partially watching us
talk to you. Like I said, you will be able to
see this video if you are only listening. If
you go to our messenger page, I believe it's
just if you Google Johnson County, the messenger,
it's the first link that pops up. JCCC messenger
dot com. And if it's not, it's probably not.
Don't click on that link. You can also find it.
on the MyJCCC thing, the Messenger thing. Oh,
yes. We do have our own little messenger at the
MyJCCC thing. I did look it up. I took a photo
because I saw our names on that. I was like,
oh, my God. I was like, yeah, October 3rd. Yes.
Oh, yeah, I forgot they added it to the official
JCCC website now. So it's technically blogs .jccc
.edu slash messenger. Oh, gotcha. OK, so yeah.
Um, you'll be able to look there and then on
the messenger tab like website There's a podcast
link and I believe that just brings you to our
rss, which has every single episode. Yes, but
I believe that there will be a Link somewhere
on that podcast Maybe we'll have a new thing
that says youtube on the website in the top right
corner. There's actually the icon for youtube
You can just click on that. Oh, never mind. Perfect.
All of our episodes will be in a playlist Guys
we didn't even talk about Chapel Rowan or Taylor
Swift. We didn't do anything fun We can have
do you want a five -minute conversation real
quick? Well, my cameras are off. It'll turn into
a 30 -minute conversation, but it's okay. Okay
Let me start because I watched the new Conjuring
movie last night I've heard so many people weren't
able to finish it because it was scary or something
Really? Yeah Okay, I have the complete opposite
feeling it was not scary. Oh But then again,
so I went with a big group of friends. Two of
them were terrified of horror movies and we didn't
tell them what they were going into. So they
were terrified. I don't usually watch horror
movies. I guess I'm desensitized now. But your
friends were terrified. So that made it funnier.
So I wasn't so focused on the movie more so than
their reactions. But at the same time... I was
looking at it from a very... Yeah, hi. I was
looking at it from a very... Why are you recording
this on your phone? Memories. Memories. I was
looking at it from a very technical point and
seeing like, oh, that's a cool shot, or, ooh,
the lighting there looks really cool, or, ooh,
that's a good facial expression, or, ooh, they
acted really good in this scene. That's why you're
not scared. And that's why I wasn't scared, I
guess. But like... don't know it was like I got
one good scare because it was really just out
of the blue and I was like oh my god but it wasn't
like a full shriek thing but right we each get
one event to tell so somebody else can go next
that's my event that okay I was at the chaperone
concert Friday night oh my god I saw your post
I loved it it was amazing doesn't it you said
you don't listen to chapel oh you're so lame
I'm just not a fan. I mean, I'm not saying that
she's like bad or anything. I'm just not a fan.
But did she play hot to go? She did. Did you
did you H -O -T -T -O -G -O? I did H -O -T -T
-O -G -O. I did hot to go. I got a video of I
went with my mom, one of the neighbors who is
like closer to my mom's age than mine and then
my neighbor's friend. So it was me, my mom, Sarah,
and Lisa. My mom's name, Athena. Shout out. Shout
out to you guys. But we all went together and
it was really fun. We took the, you guys know
what the downtown pedicab guys are? No. So do
you know what pedal cabs are? Yeah. There's a
group of gentlemen down there. Gentleman. Of
divine. Nice gentleman. The divine, superb gentleman.
I forgot. There was a word that popped into my
head. I was trying to think of a word, too. Anyways.
So yeah, there's Matt, Atticus, and Alexander,
and a couple other guys that ride these pedal
cabs around downtown Kansas and Missouri. They
basically. It was just really fun to ride around
and I was thankful enough to know them since
they've brought this idea to Kansas and I reached
out to them and was able to get the pedal cab
to the Chaparrón concert, which saved us a lot
of walking. Nice. A lot of walking. But I saw
the mural at Hamburger Mary's. That was fun.
I saw that on your post. Have you gotten your
picture there yet? I don't go to Kansas City.
Right. It's terrifying. Why? Yeah, it's Kansas
City. It's a very dangerous city. I don't know
where to park. You guys don't like Kansas City?
Where do I park? That doesn't cost $18 ,000.
There's so many places that you can park that
don't cost that much. Yeah. So what part of Kansas
City are you trying to go to? OK, in the Plaza,
yeah, you're probably going to have to pay for
parking. I literally don't know what's in Kansas
City. I'm being so real. I don't know. You had
free parking at that shady little corner parking
lot. That is kind of a shady little parking lot
at the Nelson. Nothing else was over there besides
the Nelson. You really just got to know where.
you're going and what parking spots are nearby
that are free. Otherwise, there's the app of
like parking meter or whatever. Your story's
taking too long. Oh, my bad. Chopper One was
amazing. I loved her so much. And she did a whole
speech. It was her mom and sister's birthday
and her camera director or someone that's on
her producing team. Ow. You probably heard a
thud and my mic dropped onto my lap. Are you
okay? I'm good. Okay, right But yeah, no So there
was like three birthdays and she showed photos
of everyone as little kids and everyone thought
that was cute and funny And then she's like,
I don't know where you guys are, but your presence
are backstage and then the drag performance was
great Japanese breakfast was great and Yeah,
it was I called it chapel cello Cause that's
literally what it was. There was 35 ,000 people
in attendance that night and 35 ,000 more the
next. Um, so on top of that with vendors and
everything, she probably made about $9 million,
$10 million, just those two nights together,
maybe even more. It's not really shocking. No,
but imagine making that much money in two days.
That's insane. Even if you have to pay like a
million dollars. You know what I would do? Get
working cameras Ones that don't have one hour
battery. I would get like a 24 hour battery I
think we should definitely get us better lights.
I'd get us a shelf We need to take these cameras
and we need to do a ghost adventure. Yeah What
was your thing that you wanted to talk about.
Oh, my event? Yeah, your one event, and then
we're done. I went to the Magnolia Park concert.
How was that? It was OK. It was just OK. It was
OK. The last one was way better because I was
up close to the front. So this one was at the
Granada in Lawrence. I love the Granada. It's
such a cute little venue. I liked it, but I actually
liked the bottleneck more. Makes sense. Because
it was smaller and a little more, I guess, intimate,
I guess. But I wasn't close at all in the Granada,
which is fine. I wasn't expecting to be front
row. Plus, I didn't want to be in the mosh pit.
But I wasn't that close. And everybody, I don't
know what it was. I guess all the Magnolia Park
fans are just 6 '1 tall men. And I'm like, I
can't see anything. I heard that. They played
my favorite song, The Void. I was rocking out.
I loved it. I went with my best friend. He is
not into rock music, but he went with me anyway
and bought the tickets, so thank you. What a
gentleman. Yeah. Gentleman. Divine gentleman.
But I didn't get any merch. We did eat at this
place called Fat Shack's. Oh! I liked it. I got
it. Um, it's called a fat doobie. It's a sandwich.
I don't remember that being on the menu. Are
you sure the doobie was on the sandwich and not
something you baked off off the street? No, it
was called a fat doobie. It was Kansas City.
No, it's in Lawrence. There is one in North Kansas
City. It is in Lawrence. I knew that. Fast Shack
is literally in Lawrence. And it was literally
a hoagie sandwich and it had chicken tenders
with mozzarella sticks and fries and onion rings.
It just keeps going and going and going. Yeah,
it was a lot. And it had honey mustard on it.
But I think I would have preferred buffalo sauce
on it. No wonder why it's called the Doobie.
You know what a Doobie is? What is a Doobie?
You're going to have to clip this and cut it
out. Just tell us that after. Yeah, never mind.
Never mind. Well, that's what it was called.
Less work for me to do. It was a good sandwich.
It was a good concert. If you know, you know.
Yeah, I gotta pass back. Can we have five more
minutes of talking about Taylor Swift's new album?
Oh my god. Okay, you know what? Fine. Why? Just
because, but she hasn't listened to it. No, no,
no, hold on. You don't need to. Wait, wait, wait.
I am not a Taylor Swift fan. I'm not a Taylor
Swift fan. I do enjoy her older music, but I'm
no, I'm not close to her fans. You're not gonna
catch me listening to her older music, but I
listened to it back then, because that's what
was popular. That's true. There was a lot of
controversy. I like some of her music. She has
some good music. I agree. Because she has music
in every genre. True. Everybody can find at least
one Taylor Swift song they like. I wanna hear
a Taylor Swift rock song. But this new album.
Oh my god, this new album. Pretty bad. There's
like genuinely three good songs. I don't even
think that. I think there's like three catchy
clips. Yeah. And that's it. Out of the 12. Songs?
Yeah. Her lyrics were bad. Awful. Oh my gosh.
Taylor Swift fans have been coming after me because
I've been like, oh yeah, like it's not her best
album. And they're like, it's her best selling
album. And I'm like, yeah, cause she had like
12 different variants of each, like vinyl and
every single Swifty wanted each vinyl. So duh.
Like. On top of that, she had like 13 different
CDs. This is also the most popular she's ever
been. So of course, it's going to sell the most.
Right after the Heiress tour. And she hyped it
up so much. She hyped it up so much. And I was
so excited for another. She has the football
fans on it too. Yeah, like the Max Martin collab
again, because that's when she had her best pop
music and reputation album. And I'm like, oh
my god, yes. That's the Taylor Swift I miss.
But this sucked. Like absolutely like we were
just getting a completely different vibe and
on top of that Have you guys seen the controversy?
Have you guys are you? Do you get like Are you
guys aware that Taylor Swift is receiving hate
for possibly dissing Travis Kelsey's ex -girlfriend
and she was like her entire brand well Taylor
Swift usually disses her own exes, not her fiance's
ex -girlfriend. Yeah, I guess. But it's kind
of like a low blow. But like, it is now her fiance.
I don't know. I don't care. Here's my take on
it. There are a lot of things I've seen left
and right. And I see all these Swifties backing
these up. And then my response to it is, tell
me one thing you don't like about Taylor Swift
and tell me one thing you can criticize her on
and give some feedback on. They never have anything
and they always yeah, they think she's perfect.
She's not no I've seen there's so many rundowns
that I would love to share with you guys and
maybe we'll do a Taylor Swift episode when our
cameras work We can do that next episode Maybe
but should I just save this for next episode?
Yeah. Yeah, we got a little bit into it Okay,
but anyways her new album not the best. No solid
three out of ten. You won't see me listening
to maybe even Nah, three out of ten. I give it
a three out of ten. Because Sabrina Carpenter
is in there. And I'm in my Sabrina Carpenter
grind right now, dude. Sabrina Carpenter isn't
even posting about the song. I know. She's not
doing anything. She's not promoted the song once.
She's too busy with her album. Because her album
is so much better. Well, yeah, but like her album
came out like two months ago. Yeah, it's still
awesome It's so good. So I was literally singing
it while we were figuring out all the technical
issues Taylor ship definitely buys her Ten out
of ten views she buys her viewers not view. She
doesn't actually have any fans Every single person
you've ever seen is just like an NPC that she
buys No, anyways Yeah, no. Taylor Swift fans
have been coming after me. I now have 20k views
on Instagram. Like, I took a screenshot of it.
But yeah, no. There's been like over 20k people
coming to my little Instagram account to see,
oh, is this girl like legit? This white blonde
girl doesn't like Taylor Swift. How shocking!
Taylor Swift is literally meant for white girls.
White blonde girls? Is it that serious? Literally
is that serious. I'm saying it's that serious
because I'm not going to say it is because I'm
not going to be able to say if it is or isn't
racist. But in her song, Opalite, I think people
are saying in another song, she's making racial
comments about his ex -girlfriend, Travis Kelsey's
ex -girlfriend. I didn't catch that. Then again,
I don't really listen, listen to the lyrics.
I think, okay, I think, okay, you guys can correct
me, not you guys, because you don't know, but
they can, or like, maybe Baptiste if he listens
to this, because I think he is a Swifty. but
people - He is a Swifty. No, he talked about
this. He was mad when I was dissing the album.
Really? I think like a little bit. I saw him
post on Instagram about Taylor Swift so many
times. So that's why I'm like, okay, he is a
Swifty. So he can correct me. He can text me
and be like, no, like you're wrong. I'm like,
okay, cool, cool, cool. But anyways, no. So the
racial comment about Travis Kelsey's ex -girlfriend
is like, you were sleepless in the Onyx night,
but now your sky is opalite. And then there's
another comment, but I can't remember it. Yeah,
I have no idea. Why are you laughing? I'm so
confused. It's just funny. That's funny. OK,
I'm really I'm looking at it to go see the line.
But like. I don't know. But there's like there's
another song in another dis and there's like
a Charlie dis Charlie XCX and. We can get into
that next episode. Yeah. Let's end this one.
It's been going on. Let's wrap this up. 10 minutes
later. 20 minutes later. Anyways, guys, thank
you so much for partially watching us and then
listening to us for another 30 minutes after
that. On YouTube, we'll probably just have our
audio playing after our cameras have run out.
Yeah, I'm probably going to put like. The messenger
of - We can take a photo! I was literally about
to say, let's grab the ring light and then we'll
take a picture of us with the ba - We'll see.
We'll get it. You'll just get a photo of us and
maybe we can do the South Park thing where we
cut the bottom of our chin and just - Oh my gosh.
Anyways, no, love you guys. Have a good rest
of your day. Bye!
