5:50Mark Fischbach:now we gotta do this yeah i know and then i'll get to hang out with friends yeah well you're
5:55Ethan Nestor:here now don't make me say time words again i please don't small talk you guys you lived
6:00Mark Fischbach:shit happened you break any more expensive things what do you get to share it's kind of way in the
6:05Ethan Nestor:past now but i did go to twitchcon i'm not gonna talk about the issues with the con itself because there were some crazy shit that happened how was the irl streamers actually you know what it was way less bad than i thought it would be well people have been all over it on social media it's all i hear about i assumed i would walk into twitchcon and it would just be like you could spot them from a ways away and just kind of wander away from them and stay i didn't interact with a single irl streamer the whole time it's glorious but san diego is fucking great city man it is san diego is beautiful i had a beautiful time yeah and the convention center there is very nice it was a lovely it was set up well it was very fun i don't want to talk about the rest of it but i had a great time also i was there on my birthday so that was pretty fun i didn't text you but i tweeted you happy birthday really indirectly i don't think i texted you at Oh, I apologize.
6:57Ethan Nestor:You tweeted me happy birthday? I did. I don't like to celebrate my birthday. Everyone, my family is always like, what do you want for your birthday? And I'm like, don't. Yeah, I feel that. It was cool. San Diego's great. You don't want to talk about it. The con, man, I don't know if you guys saw. Yeah, you didn't know what happened? I mean, I saw. I saw an incident that happened. It was a crazy assault on a specific streamer that was like, and the situation that led up to that, not like banning her security. which is i mean i know you don't want to talk about but it's like i can't i can't fathom just unbelievable it doesn't make any sense to me like in in this day and age when enough incidents have occurred in the past how security could not be of maximal concern it blows my mind so yeah it's
7:43Mark Fischbach:really sad i don't want to talk about it but i've also heard different opinions or not different different uh descriptions of what happened one being from twitch and the other being from the person and you know people around them which is uh interesting to say the least i think i know who i believe and it's probably not the company i mean we don't have to not say their their name
8:02Ethan Nestor:no well yeah well that's just why that was the only reason i really want to talk about it i it's a thing that's been on my mind but like we don't really know what happened i've seen the some video angles of what happened but like i don't want to hear say i don't want to whatever the people involved that know know what happened whoever it happened to and like the issue is i I just can't believe that that was even able to happen. It's fucking crazy. But San Diego, lovely. Thank you so much, San Diego. Great weekend. I've only been there once. Loved the city. That was where you became the king of meat.
8:33Ethan Nestor:Was that in San Diego? I guess you said it was San Diego, right? Yeah. Yeah, that was the San Diego Fogo de Chau on tour.
8:39Mark Fischbach:I've been there twice then, I guess. I forgot about the tour one because the tour, we stopped in cities, but it wasn't like we had a lot of time to explore them.
8:45Ethan Nestor:No, it could have been anywhere that we didn't see San Diego. We saw the Fogo in the theater.
8:50Mark Fischbach:but but uh i guess if we did a show there then i've been there twice because i was there for i think twitch con seven years ago or something eight years ago i don't know one of the earlier ones but i do want to say i do want to say heart goes out to emiru just to so it doesn't seem like we're all dancing around in any way because it's just like i know that that's it's gotta be rough
9:08Ethan Nestor:one way or another yeah no i don't i don't know emiru personally in any way but that's fucking terrible we had we had an experience where someone was just kind of vaguely threatening and creepy and i cannot imagine how it must feel to actually like have someone get all the way to you do something like to you touch you whatever like nightmare scenario but mark happy stuff happy stuff i ain't got none of that better get up your warm up your highs it's gonna be real sad again hi yeah i know right uh well actually it's kind of happy news because of my fucking I might finally have this curse lifted off of my soul.
9:54The actual burden that has chained me for three years. Being short? Yeah, it might be finally movie time. I mean, sad that this wonderful journey that has been.
10:06Ethan Nestor:You seem oddly less relieved than I would have thought. You seem a little bit like you're just, you just want to kick this thing out of your life and never touch it again. Fuck yes, I do. Fuck yes, I do. Get this thing out of me. Man, I am so over it. I mean, it's not for a while. I got a little bit more to do. There's some cool steps coming up. I'm going to be at the Warner Brothers mixing stage. That doesn't mean anything, everybody. Doesn't fucking mean anything. Don't go crazy about that one. Wink. It's just a place.

It's kind of a funny situation because I got married, right? And so there was some posts that were on the internet about it. That's hilarious. Me and Amy is a picture from our wedding is now the number one all time top post in the Five Nights at Freddy's subreddit. The previous one was the previous top post was an apology post from Scott Cotham about something about his movie.
13:35so we've dethroned that one and we're number one in the Five Nights in Freddy's subreddit so yeah
13:44Ethan Nestor:congrats thank you I think you did it man we made it no he's very sweet of that like I did appreciate it because there were some people on that post were like why is this there but everyone else was just like well come on him and FNAF come on so everyone was just like very nicely upvoting it being like and I think they wanted to dethrone that apology for being the number one on anyway thank you very much you should make an apology post for
14:11Mark Fischbach:dethroning the apology post and see if you get that the number one that could be the new highest uh upvoted thing it could be it could be it won't be and hey maybe that'll be the top post on that subreddit forever unless i die and then i'll probably be the number one on that subreddit so got something to look forward to i think the best record i can say is whenever i proposed to molly at PAX. We were the number one Twitch clip for a week. That proposal moment. Why didn't you bring this up on the last episode, man?
14:41Ethan Nestor:Yeah, that would have been a good 24-hour record. Number one proposal highlight clip? Number one Twitch clip. All of Twitch. Number one clip. You were the number one clip?
14:51Mark Fischbach:I guess that would have been worldwide. That is the criteria.
14:56Ethan Nestor:Worldwide on Twitch. That's how that works, yeah.
14:58Mark Fischbach:Can I get a retroactive point for that? You already won. And no. I'm going to give myself a point for that.
15:05Ethan Nestor:I can do that. Can do that, but it doesn't mean anything in the world of personal single day world records. You're still the same winner you always were. Thank you. I feel good about that right now.
15:17Mark Fischbach:I might win this episode. Congrats, man. The Lemonati has spent decades keeping Lemon on top and lime in the shadows. Their Lemon agenda has infiltrated everything, even our music. That hit song named after the color of lemons? Not a coincidence. Big Lemon has been pulling strings in the industry for years. Think about it. But now, 7up is fighting back with their new Lime Lemon Soda. Now Lime comes first. 7up. Flip the sip.

Do you guys have anything else you want to bring up, or am I welcome to transition into making you all work?
17:22Ethan Nestor:I don't want to work, but I guess that's the next part. I don't want to work either. Can we have fun instead?
17:27Mark Fischbach:That's great. So what I figured we would do for today is make you guys find scary new stories. Or just scary stories. Scary things that happen. I mean, real scary stuff. It's Halloween. It's time to inflict terror and fear on our audience. You did give us some prep time for this. So I did it because otherwise I would subject the audience to me typing as, and my microphone is from my keyboard. So me typing sounds like this.
17:58Mark Fischbach:That's not an exaggeration. That's actually what it sounds like. Editor's edit my hands. Well, typing. Wait, anyway, I have one right away. I'm ready to win this one. This is spooky because Halloween is about witches and what are witches about? that's right frogs okay frogs they'll curse you into a toad or something like that right so this is halloween related i got distracted when you did this uh riverside showed me that you were giving me a thumbs up oh i know no that wasn't riverside that was me me me me wow oh boy never gets old anyway watch out everyone it's get to a toilet again once again toilet warning you're about to shit yourself from the fear you're about to have Chinese woman swallows eight live frogs to ease back pain I hate that What is the What?
19:03Mark Fischbach:What? What? What? It's so terrifying Your mind can't comprehend it That's fucked up It was reported That she consumed Three of the frogs Right away And the remaining five The following day Take three of these And call me in the morning How do you eat a frog Whole Alive Like, how do you swallow it in your mouth? Probably, but they're big. Well, these weren't that big. I think they fit in the palm of her hand. So, you know, they're not huge frogs. I mean, they're not like palm sized frogs. The power of the sun can fit in the palm of your hand. Of course, a frog can. Not my hand. Did I tell you the time Chica tried to eat a frog?
19:48Mark Fischbach:Probably not. Okay. Another Chica story has nothing to do with Halloween, but it was scary for us because we didn't know what's happening. So Chica loves the park, right? and we're taking her for a walk like we occasionally do you know every once in a while we feel like it all right you can go outside and she's sniffing around and there was these frogs all over the ground it was it was kind of scary because we didn't know if we were stepping on them previously because we only noticed them halfway being in the middle of them so in this entire field there's little tiny frog i'm talking tiny like you could hold it between your fingers but you wouldn't want to.
20:22And I'll tell you why later. Cause they're, they're going every time we walk, it's like the ground suddenly is moving. Like all these frogs are like, Holy shit, there's a lot. It's not complete carpet, but it's a lot. And so Chica is very oblivious to things for a long time. But as soon as she notices something, she hyper fixates. Right? So we are like, Whoa, there's a lot of frogs. We go to Chica. Don't look at the frogs. And she's like, looks up at us, doesn't notice a thing. And we're going for a walking issue. And then the frogs were trying to walk slowly there she's sniffing the ground seeing nothing but then she locks onto a frog pulls me so hard it's like she's like a fucking snake and then she grabs frog and goes and then immediately it's like like gags it out suddenly her mouth just starts going foam just out of her mouth all like completely just running down her big lips her cheek flaps and i thought she was poisoned i was like oh god no so i'm like frantically googling like frog mouth dog foam um and uh they they're just covered in this bitter thing that makes uh her do that and so she's like and we're like, ah, shit, Chica, you okay?
21:41She, frog, goes right for another frog. Like she got it, like she was addicted to whatever the horrible sensation was that she got from the first frog. And I went, oh, we're not so different, Eferl. And meanwhile, I'm like, oh, and so she, ever since then, she looks for the frogs because I think she felt something. I don't know, she liked it. I don't think she got high from the frogs but you never know.
22:09Mark Fischbach:My friend Jared had a black lab that did something very similar whenever he'd find a toad. He'd like hold it up and his dog Jake would sniff it and go and then start foaming at the mouth but he'd always come back to smell it again even though like every time. Love those frogs Short term memory it's like oh this is terrible. What is that? Oh god it's so gross. One more time? Humans do it all the time. Humans just love that shit But she called a frog and frog equal witches. Oh, yeah. And this this lady swallowed eight frogs. Yeah. And she developed a horrible, horrible parasitic infection. But her back pain.
22:46But her back was better. I don't see anything about it. Wow. That's good. She was in the hospital for two weeks.
22:56Mark Fischbach:What a ribbiting story. I thought it was funny. Bob, you find a story.
23:02Ethan Nestor:A family in Houston, Texas Bought a doll that said Fun quotes from the movie Frozen But then it wouldn't stop doing it 2013, they got the doll for Christmas It was very cute Pressed a button on the neck And it would say things from the movie And sing the song Let It Go And it was just a little doll Maybe a little creepy, whatever It's just a little doll for two years after they got it. It did that in English. And then in 2015, it started doing it in Spanish and then switching back and forth between Spanish and English. There was not a way to change these. This was just a thing it started doing.
23:48Ethan Nestor:The family has owned this doll for more than six years, never once changed the batteries or checked on it, and it just says whatever it wants. It does. Well, that's misleading. It says things from the movie. It says the quotes from the movie. it sings the song but it just triggers itself it just goes it'll just and that happens you know what sometimes toys a funky bun sometimes uh sometimes it's in spanish i guess that happens but in 2019 they decided to throw out the creepy doll they were finally done weeks later in the new year they found it inside a bench in their living room the kids insisted that they did not put it in there.
24:28Ethan Nestor:Inside a bench? Like a storage bench I assume. Like you know how they have like benches but like the top opens you put like shoes. It wasn't like embedded in there like half teleported you know stuck. It was like in a place in a low place where a kid might be able to get to it but the kid said they didn't do that. So obviously they did. Obviously yeah. And when when the doll came back of its own accord it stopped speaking English completely and only spoke in Spanish. They then apparently put it in two trash bags, put it at the bottom of their garbage can, watched the garbage can get dumped into the truck on garbage day the next day, went on a trip shortly thereafter, and returned to the doll being in the backyard of their home.
25:14Ethan Nestor:This time, to get rid of it, they mailed it in a box to family friends in Minnesota, who then taped the haunted doll to the front bumper of his truck because why wouldn't you that's what i wanted to do the whole time i was reading this story anyway it hasn't found its way back to houston because it lives on that guy's truck and that's scary news i got even scarier i get something that's gonna scare your fucking pants off because of the implications that it is suggesting viewer discretion is advised. This headline will terrify you. Union City Police Department captures two local hamburglars. Let that sink in.
26:02There was more than one hamburglar. And now there are, it is known there are at, there's the balloons.
26:12Ethan Nestor:Hey, balloons. Scary balloons. Who knows how many Hamburg, okay. I don't know if you've ever seen like McDonald's creepy pasta, like creepy versions of the McDonald's mascot characters. Hamburglar terrifies me more than Grimace, right? Grimace is scary. The Hamburglar, that ain't right. You know, cause he's not really human. He kind of looks vaguely human. Like, like the others, you can imagine humans in those costumes, the Hamburglar, that's not right. And now there's more than two of them. There might just be two but i doubt if there's more than one there's probably more there's probably more so
26:52Mark Fischbach:is the hamburgler not human no he looks human that you've ever seen a human look like that there are some images man there's one yeah there's a few he doesn't look right he's not human you ever seen what the that's no the hamburgler is fucking terrifying i don't care what anybody says i don't like the hammer i don't like his i don't like when he does why is he welcoming the gang with the people that are making the hamburgers because he's clearly the hamburglar. So it's running all the way down. Pretty much. Also in the story, you read into it and they were stealing from a help center. So, you know, that's even scarier.
27:31Ethan Nestor:Wait, were they actually stealing things that weren't cheeseburgers? I mean, a lot of meat, mostly burger patties. All right. If you read the article, it starts to just be like a robbery. but the the headline is the scary part okay there are some wild reddit threads about the
27:48Mark Fischbach:hamburgler i've gone through a couple now and people people debate their feelings on the hamburgler but some people agree with you they're like he's just genuinely irredeemably terrifying i i wasn't aware of the multi-hamburgler verse it's terrifying you don't want to face the truth but it's out there i never paid that much attention to him because it was always just like it was just a cartoon hamburger but some of like the more realistic depictions of him are quite unsettling while you're thinking just to read go back some of the characters from like franchises in like the i don't know 30s to 60s range what were people thinking i mean stuff was different back then man i don't know have you ever seen early disney mascots terrifying all right i'm gonna show you a picture i'm gonna show you one don't look it up yourself i want to show it to Viewer discretion is advised.
28:37Get ready, buddy. You're not. Boom.
28:41Mark Fischbach:Oh, is that Mickey and Minnie with like horrible squid face? It's like it looks like they are like scarred. Everything about it makes my skin crawl the way the eyes are. It looks like they used to be people. And their face got ripped and stretched in the shape of a mouse. Or kind of like Jack Nicholson's Joker, if he was also Mickey Mouse. No, mascots back then were awful. Like, just horrifying. Dude, those dead staring eyes that aren't even looking in a certain direction. It's a picture of, like, a dad holding his son who looks a little uneasy. And then I think maybe, I mean, I'm assuming it's his son.
29:21Mark Fischbach:And maybe his daughter who looks genuinely happy. Like, she looks like she's having a good time. That kid, the boy that he's holding, he doesn't look so sure. The dad's looking up like I'm also not so sure. No, there's nothing about it. It's good. And they don't get better for a while. Like they're they're this for a long time. So even her feet. What's going on with her shoes? I don't know what that's about. She's got hooves like bandaged hooves. The surgery was tough, man. All right. I'm going to stop looking at this because I don't like it. Yeah. Yeah. It wasn't it wasn't good. Oh, that wasn't even the earliest one.
29:55Holy shit. Wait. Oh, Bob. I hope you can cleanse our palate. wait a minute okay wait we've got we've got mickey through the years apparently look at mr mickey on the left apparently that was the first iteration oh man i don't even know
30:13Ethan Nestor:where i'm supposed to look what it looks like a cryptid mickey i don't know like in the nicest way possible it looks like they walked into like a second grade art class where kids are just like like finger painting and having a good time and they were like make us a costume of a mouse the size of a man and the kids were like i don't know what a mouse looks like and then this is this this is what happened and he's got gloves don't forget the gloves how do they go from that to the horrible
30:43Mark Fischbach:scarred squid face and then it's just like skinny buff mickey mickey is just a guy body with a mickey
30:51Ethan Nestor:mouse head just real skinny and toned i don't know if i woke up to three i think i'd also be terrified just standing like that with arms on hips over your bed just like oh boy good morning mark you know mickey's voice actually changed a lot too the far left mickey on the picture walks up he's like hey what's up kids yeah yeah i'm a mouse i don't even imagine english i imagine the first one walks up and you just hear like you want to smoke kids make sure you listen to your doctors and smoke your lucky strikes every day mickey mouse only smokes lucky strikes i think
31:32Mark Fischbach:are you sure it's not two i feel like one is just gurgling noises and two is that uh two two is like
31:38Ethan Nestor:inhuman noises to me yeah one one has too much like humanity still because it's mostly just a person with whatever happened to the face. But two is like the pants give it a shape. It's more uncanny somehow to me.
31:55Mark Fischbach:One looks like somehow a slit in the throat is the mouth is what one looks like to me. Oh god. Yeah, now I see that. Okay, yeah.
32:03Ethan Nestor:You wanna know how I got this mouth?
32:06Mark Fischbach:It looks like their mouth would lift from the base of their neck, or the top of their neck, or the jaw, and just like Hey, I'm Mickey. No, I do see that now you're saying it number two just has a musical theme as he's walking towards you and it's just
32:24Mark Fischbach:Two is like Cthulhu and Mickey had a baby tell me Minnie Mouse do you fear death? Oh God, there's worse oh no no how is there war sorry i can't just i can't just keep showing this but quick just
32:40Ethan Nestor:just quick oh god oh no no why's the kid on his knees that's gotta be like homemade like rental costumes or something or some that's gotta be a reason for that there's no way what is with the
32:55Mark Fischbach:uh so we're looking at mickey and minnie but like from from halloweenhorrorwish.com
33:01Ethan Nestor:Is it just I I can't tell you why do they look French to you guys? Yeah, I'm getting a little French from that. I could I could see that.
33:09Mark Fischbach:Yeah, I could weirdly see it
33:11Ethan Nestor:But I don't know why this popped up in my head was just like, oh, what are we going to do is this child?
33:20Ethan Nestor:Something unsettlingly French and I'm sorry French people, but it's it's not a judgment about you There's just something there's just something no they get it. I think I think they get it
33:29Mark Fischbach:The kid looks like his left eye, like he has a black eye in his left eye too. It does. He's got a weird shadow over his face. He looks so happy or some emotion. Editor, zoom in on that. Is that a smile? It's not. I think it's not a smile. For some reason, the kid is standing like down on his knees in the photo and like Minnie and Mickey are standing around him. He's wearing like dress pants and a dress shirt with a tie. I think he's got dress shorts on. Oh, maybe they are. Yeah, I guess they are. I just thought it was like a bad render But yeah I guess they are shorts I just don't know why he's on his knees Unless he's about to be executed That's the only reason I could say I don't either because it's not like if he stood up he'd be taller than these monstrosities Hehehehe An extra foot and he's at shoulder height I don't know why he's Yeah everything it's weird Anyway alright enough of that Bob any kind of palette Happy Halloween everyone Any kind of palette cleanser from that
34:25Ethan Nestor:Oh yeah no no no yeah Yeah no no yeah no Let me just share this real quick. Oh, thank God. This is going to be fine. It's going to be perfect. Ew. Okay. Ew. In the English village of Rockdale, this giant baby statue thing just appeared in the town square with no actual explanation. And there is an explanation, and I can tell you, it doesn't help.
34:57Mark Fischbach:Okay, let me describe this for our listeners. There is a very, very large, almost paper mache looking baby with action figure conjoint arms and hands. It looks like you could bend them.
35:08Ethan Nestor:The arms apparently are like poseable. It's like a doll.
35:13Mark Fischbach:And there's a, I think a guy doing a really shitty cosplay of Wendy from Wendy's with his arms up in confusion, walking toward some construction working kids. What are you all looking at? There's nothing to see. Get a junior bacon.
35:30Ethan Nestor:A classic English accent. Thank you. Where do you think we got it from? No, don't worry, guys. I can explain this. Obviously, this giant 19 foot tall baby doll statue was erected for school children to come and talk and sing to it. And obviously, this mysterious appearance of this doll was soon followed by a post from the Rockdale Borough Council's Facebook page that was a video of a group of school children with an adult dressed, the lady with the red hair dressed up kind of like she's the host of a kid show or something. I don't know what the deal is with that. The school children that you see in the picture that I'm sharing with you are singing Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star to the doll.
36:20Mark Fischbach:Whose eyes are closed with weird kind of red rings around them. Yeah, the red is weird. And what is the symbol on baby's belly?
36:29Ethan Nestor:I think there might have been people in it. Doesn't that look like it's like mesh? Like someone sits in there and looks out of it?
36:37Mark Fischbach:Yeah, it looks like you go in through the mouth and you get digested in the belly. Look, kids, you can watch how digestion works.
36:46Ethan Nestor:Guys, I know we're being funny, but obviously this was erected as part of a campaign to encourage schoolchildren to talk about the importance of environmental issues. It all makes sense when you hear the full explanation, when you see the video of the kids singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to the giant baby doll. It all comes together. Also, the baby's name is Lily, and there apparently are videos of just kids standing in front of Lily talking about how they're going to recycle more. Also, a number of people seem to think it reminded them in an uncanny way of the puppet doll from Squid Game that does the red light, green light bit.
37:31Ethan Nestor:I have one question. You said it was 19 feet tall. Is that only when it's sitting? because I see the people next to it and it looks like I could stack four of them on top of each other and reach the head. I fear its true height is actually much taller. When Lily learns to walk, it's going to be a problem. I think you're on to something.
37:52Mark Fischbach:Looks like there's a team of people in the back holding Lily down to make sure Lily doesn't attack the children. They've got like ropes or something. I see that. I see that. Yeah.
38:01Ethan Nestor:Yeah. You don't want to have something like this just sitting out in the open unrestrained. You know, we've all seen those movies.
38:07Mark Fischbach:It's a cloudy day, which makes sense. Oh, it's just England. Are those pillows or body bags? What are we dealing with?
38:14Ethan Nestor:I honestly couldn't tell you. I think they're pillows for the children to come and sit upon when they speak to Lily about the nature of the environment.
38:26Mark Fischbach:I think those are also tastefully covering Lily's junk. I'm not sure that Lily has a diaper for some reason. I said, maybe babies can be naked. That's fine. It's whatever. I don't want to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to naked paper mache giant baby doll myself.
38:41Ethan Nestor:Look, you don't have to sing. You just have to bring your plans for how you're going to conserve more water in your household. Yeah, you just have to be honest. It'll know if you're lying. The singing is extra. That's just for Lily's enjoyment. But if you don't come with a solid environmental plan, Lily eats you and you see what digestion feels like from the inside. Anyway, I don't know why the hell anyone would have ever done that. But what a thing to do in October for some reason. What would you do if that just popped up like somewhere by your house and you just were driving by and there was a 19 foot tall baby thing sitting there?
39:15Ethan Nestor:Would you just like ignore it and hope that you never learned anything about it and it just went away before it caused any problems? Or would you go investigate? Like, I don't know what I would do. Seeing it once appear once is probably OK, but much like the Hamburglar, if it appears twice like it's it's in the town square. the first time you're like oh that's where you go home it's in your local park then i'd start to be like okay all right i see where i see where this is going i see where i don't know i think i've
39:43Mark Fischbach:had enough halloween you guys had enough halloween hooray i'm scared yeah i mean i got i got one more but you know okay if you guys want to do a speed round get us out of here mouth cleanser something better than hamburglers and lynn and disney mascots and lily i don't even want to talk about this one anymore i was gonna like swing it into some like other kind of scary like the hamburger but it wasn't really scary i'm embarrassed now so you don't want to share it i'll share if you really want it but you're gonna you're gonna hear me say the title and you're gonna be like no guys enough of that all right go for it the title no uh meet the nut maxers obsessed with shooting bigger loads
40:26Ethan Nestor:you were right you were right that's it that's all we needed you were absolutely right this is a gq article so i'm like i don't know if they commonly talk about these issues but i'm like isn't that a reputable publication dude i love the annual nut maxing issue of gq it's my
40:45Mark Fischbach:favorite is this the december issue that comes after no not november no this is just last week Actually, this was written When we were recording It was literally October 14th, 2025 By Charlie Sosnick So Charlie Some of the most important discoveries in medicine Came from brave people experimenting on themselves Jonas Salk tested his polio vaccine on himself and his family Isaac Newton poked a blunt needle into his own eye socket To understand how we see life Not what I remember him for And these brave dudes can't stop gooning You can't. Okay. And they're using their own bugs and stuff. So the Redditors on...
41:26I'm not going to read the subreddit. Have determined that a combination of zinc, pygium, and L-citrulline and lecithin. Le - lecithin. Fuck. Lecithin is the holy grail of cum. Oh, okay. 47 ,000 visitors. 600 weekly contributions. I think that's more active than our subreddit Oh no
42:00Mark Fischbach:We just need to sell more sex on Distractable What turned these men into citizen jizz scientists? A growing interest in self-opposition Anyway, it's a community You've heard of Citizen Kane, have you heard of Citizen Jizz?
42:18Ethan Nestor:No, I haven't. You know, it turns out, actually, Jizz is the name of his sled at the end of the movie. I didn't think that one was going to land at all. You guys like old movies, huh? That one worked out? Ever since Who's Line, I didn't know. They constantly make that joke about Rosebud and the sled. So I know I've never seen the movie, but I know I love any joke about it.
42:43Mark Fischbach:So good. Well thanks for sharing Mark Yeah you want to hear more Not really The Lemonati has spent decades Keeping Lemon on top and lime In the shadows Their Lemon agenda has infiltrated everything Even our music That hit song named after the color Of lemons Not a coincidence Big Lemon has been pulling strings in the industry for years Think about it But now 7up is fighting back with their new lime lemon soda. Now lime comes first. 7up. Flip the sip. Fall has never looked or tasted this good. Sweet Greens Fall Harvest Menu is back with seasonal favorites dressed to impress and made to be devoured.

43:54Mark Fischbach:Bob, any last minuters from you? I'm ending this travesty.
43:58Ethan Nestor:Viewer discretion is advised. Yeah, no, apparently there's a disorder syndrome, rare condition that affects how a person sees faces. I'll just share this to I don't even know how to describe it, but it like widens everything in a way to where it's like. and the face on the left is like how it's actually constructed and then the face on the right
44:28Mark Fischbach:is like a wide like demonic mouth smile and yeah i got this uh listeners imagine the first mario party the mini game where you had to like stretch people's eyes and mouths and noses uh just imagine stretching the eyes out the nose out and the mouth all the way to the ears almost no actually no i got it i got it better i got a better way imagine if a guy was so obsessed with donkey kong that he got plastic surgery to make his face look exactly like Donkey Kong. You tell me that's not Donkey Kong right there. That's what it looks like.
45:02Ethan Nestor:Anyway, I'm sorry to scare everyone so violently with that. You can trigger that in yourself if you play that video where it's like you're supposed to stare in the middle and it'll change the people's faces on either side to go chung, chung, chung. Because if you watch that video where you stare at the center and then the face change, you look at him in your periphery And when they change the features from the previous ones linker over to the next one, as it goes faster and faster, they look more monstrous. But as soon as you look towards them, they look perfectly normal. But you stare in the center, it'll look horrifying.
45:34Works with almost everybody.
45:36Ethan Nestor:No, this is a crazy thing. Only 75 recorded cases is what this article reports. Wow. And this fellow in Tennessee had perfect vision. He's like a middle-aged dude, had perfect vision for his whole life. woke up one day and had this and just about lost his entire shit because everyone looked
45:57Mark Fischbach:not human anymore for no reason would you think like i would think actually that i either i'd gone crazy or like the whole world was being like taken over by i don't know what i would believe
46:08Ethan Nestor:if i if i saw that i would definitely think i was going crazy i would assume that i was having it was a hallucination and apparently the exactly how it is distorted is different on a person by person basis so it's not like it has to do something with your physiology or your mental interpretations of stuff like it it's connected to the person who is experiencing the syndrome as well but i would definitely just think like something is wrong with me i see a doctor or something you know who else should see a doctor all the people on that subreddit because all those brave heroes those citizen jizz scientists i'm just glad we didn't have any images to share for the jizz scientists it's like it's like one of those pop science articles and it's just like a image of a white like lab table very sterile and it's just like a big splat across and you open it and your first reaction is like oh but then you're like well that is a lot like that does you know they're on to something that like that looks like a surprising amount if that's a real representation like they did something you know like good job i highly doubt any of that actually does anything but you know only one way to find out we're gonna we're gonna do the month-long distractible scientific challenge just to just to make it all really controlled we're gonna do no not december straight into big jizz december no no not november straight into big jizz december
47:41Mark Fischbach:um so points i got a point for oh last episode i had the twitch clip number one for a week with molly so i got a point for last episode and this episode for that yeah you know that's not that's um bob you got points for bald we don't want to say san diego heart boo at my ribbiting joke frozen doll bilingual frozen doll coming back lily dot dot dot rockdale baby statue oh the lily came after that one wide face for a total of nine points mark you got points for confusing no happy which is a lie point uh number one fnaf post movie done which is why the no happy was a lie point that one also feels like a lie point it might be a lie there might be a retroactive lie who knows we'll just put it as a lie it's been a lie so far why wouldn't it be now damn happy Halloween witches equal frog chica love frog you have magical balloons times three you laughed at my ribbiting joke two hamburglars maximum nutting via gq for a total of 12 points which two of which your lie points so right now it's 12 to 9 but two lie points uh for the wheel i'm gonna be that guy and i'm gonna i'm gonna say the addition this time is minus five percent one man show oh sure hey look guys the wheel says we're gonna do three spins again oh you know what's funny about that minus 5 % can you make it minus 7 % because if it goes back from 6 % it can be 99 % chance minus 7 % because I love the risk part of it like yes it could decrease it but also it could guarantee it we have to remember to add 10 next time I did it oh okay I didn't know you did
49:40Ethan Nestor:already I did that yeah alright minus 7 % to one man show 12 to 9 to 1 3 spins Shall we? I'm so ready Man I can't even kind of guess what it's gonna No! No! Surprise golf rules Wade can't fucking win What the fuck?
50:03Mark Fischbach:Well no we've never allowed the host to win with golf rules It would be Bob Oh man I think it means Bob Is it just end? Or is that for right now? That you're in the lead?
50:15Ethan Nestor:I think that just is a rule. Previously, it has happened at the end of the spins.
50:20Mark Fischbach:Okay, so least amount of points now wins, meaning... If Bob, go Bob, get these wheel spins, go, go, go. Come on, Bob. So right now, Bob's winning 9 to 12. All right, Bob's winning 9 to 12. I love that for me. But I've got two lie points, so those aren't real points until the thing comes in there, right? That's true. Deserves most sympathy. Mark lied to us twice. I don't know if he deserves sympathy for that. No, I had happy. I was so happy. That's why I was. So I was really happy. Oh, I see. Yeah. And I found that subreddit. So I'm going to be so happy now. You know, I'm going to say respin. Nobody deserves sympathy this time.
51:02Mark Fischbach:All right. Respin. No sympathy this time. Respin. Sympathy was last episode.
51:11Mark Fischbach:Most self-sabotage?
51:13Ethan Nestor:Mark. Well, hold on. Maybe not Mark. Yeah, how did you arrive at Mark? No, I was killing it. I was crushing it. I was destroying it, I think. Yeah, Mark lied. Oh, wait, you're saying... Oh, I was saying neither of us self-sabotage. You're saying I self-sabotage. Well, you booed at my ribbiting joke and you knew better. Dude, Bob was tripping over his own feet the whole episode. Yeah, he knew better than that. He's tripping over my outrageous piles of jizz.
51:41Mark Fischbach:All right, Reese, then. That's fair. I don't know. You're either tired or neither one Used best Word Nut maxing no not that word I used no words I used no words I don't think I said words this episode at all I think it was a lot of grunting The entire time Maximum nutting might be
52:07Ethan Nestor:I really liked nut maxing I thought that was great Yeah I think nut maxing probably gets it It's okay, Mark. You could always get double surprise golf rules. Yeah, would that undo it? I guess it would. It would flip it back, right? That's how it would work. It would flip it, I think, yeah. Drank the most? You know, for the guy who was drinking a lot of water, I didn't drink anything in this episode. Last episode I did. I drank like half a Gatorade. All right, plus one for Bob. I wouldn't say that's a lot, but I guess that's more than Mark, so. Surprise golf rules. Bob wins 10 to 13.
52:42Mark Fischbach:Alright, you'll love to see it. Mark, you really crushed it this episode, um. You had so many porns. Porns? Mark, you had so many porns, man. Porns? You had so much porn, dude. Porns? I got so many porns. Your por - your por - your pornt's falling out of your dick over here. Look, I lost when I was winning, but that when was back then. So that then's not now, so the win isn't now. But, you know what? We're all winners. because we've spread the wonderful news we've spread today. And I bemoan the idea that there will... See, I'm number one on the Five Days of Freddy subreddit. We better not get number one on that subreddit.
53:24I swear to God.
53:25Ethan Nestor:That's not Maxine's subreddit. Wait, wait, editors, you couldn't bleep it? What was it called? What was the subreddit called that was so bad you wouldn't read it in the episode? It was literally... Well, I mean, I guess there's no harm in it. It was called It's a real boring... I feel like it should be nutmaxing is what it should be, but I didn't want to... Yeah, how is it not r slash nutmaxing? I have no idea, you know.
53:51Mark Fischbach:I don't know. Well said, I guess. Bob, really underperformed. Got under my skin. Didn't laugh at my joke. Congrats on the win. Winner speech.
54:00Ethan Nestor:I booed you, the host, and won. that is the best of both worlds I knew what I signed up for when I booed you I knew that it sometimes that causes you to give points so it is it's kind of a gamble both ways but like I knew that that was risky and uh but also I knew that the wheel only picks between the same seven or eight responses so golf rules was due to come back up you know
54:27Mark Fischbach:that's fair I can't hear the phrase knew it was coming without cringing at this moment came big time
54:33Ethan Nestor:Golf rules came all over everything. So this episode be called fear maxing. Don't like it that much, but not because it's a bad title. Just because I don't want those images in my head where I can't see images, but I could sort of see them and they're think even with a Fantasia really sticks with you. The only image you can have in your head is That's the only image you're allowed to generate. I have no, there's no setting There's no setting, there's no characters It's just the
55:07Mark Fischbach:Bob's aphantasia superpowers He can only see nutmaks
55:14Rotate it in your head Bob, rotate it
55:17Mark Fischbach:You can find Mark at Markiplier You can find Bob at MySkr Me at Minion777 or LordMinion777 And I guess Bob Lost, so he won So he'll host the next one Surprise golf rules until then, I hope you got your fear maxing in in October, because you know what you can't do in November Podcast out
