00:00What did you do to her? She stole my broccoli, got several recipes eight years ago, I'm clean to hers.

00:11She cleaned it was hers.

00:19We kind of had this idea of like what if you took something really stupid

00:22and then turned it into a song and uh yeah the rest is history.

00:30Good evening, is this November? Yes it is.

00:39Please leave me alone, we are sleeping.

00:48No more contacting me.

00:50By the end of it like it's not funny to me anymore at all um like because I just like

01:01obviously it's like a joke you can't keep hearing the same joke and then I showed it to my partner

01:06and she was like crying of laughter and I was like okay well that's a pretty good sign. Now when we

01:10do them there's like this weird kind of millions of people might see this in the back of your head

01:15but like it wasn't there in the first one so yeah. I didn't also realize how much that would

01:26matter to people but then like people write messages about how much it means to them or

01:31that it got them through this time or whatever and I realized like yeah okay like we need to

01:35laugh and we need to be able to look at ourselves.

02:00Yeah I looked it up I wanted to make sure that it's mold it is mold yeah it's just been a lot of

02:05strange amazing things things I imagined when I was a kid maybe like being on tv

02:11or that kind of thing and you're just like that's not supposed to happen for real.

02:23The way that we find the internet dramas now is that uh my partner and I will sit down

02:31and we just kind of have like written off like a few hours of our time at least

02:36and we're just gonna sit there and just scroll and scroll and scroll and just like we're digging

02:43through subreddits and and listicles and whatever like stupid like whatever place we can find

02:49something we're and we're just reading and it's like uh this is too harsh this is political this

02:54and just kind of like it's it's kind of painful honestly like it like because it's just like

02:59almost nothing works and then you find one where you're like oh I got that feeling.

03:04There's always one side that's crazy um but I feel like people really relate to the crazy side

03:27as much as we relate to being the one that's subjected to the crazy like we also relate with

03:32like no Abby you don't get it like this horse is 15 like this is I've connected my identity

03:39to the weight that I thought that this horse was like I think there's something therapeutic about

03:43like about relating to the crazy person in that thing and being like you know what it's okay that

03:48I'm crazy everybody's crazy sometimes we all act a little irrational we're not like logical creatures

03:54man she's the director sometimes a little bit the choreographer and so now when we're working

04:07together Denise will be like maybe we should like the certificate for the horse like she's gonna you

04:12know do a nicer thing but put a funny name because like some people are gonna catch it and of course

04:16people did well the first thing is it's funny already I look up to people that create funny

04:39out of nothing that just like write funny things or make funny sketches that because like I feel

04:44like I have to find something it's proven the internet has already decided it's funny

04:49and then I just do some on top I was looking at how you you needed no one you could really blow

05:04up out of nowhere it's the only platform at the moment where that can happen so I was like what

05:09if I take this stuff that I learned and I try to like put it in here when I when I came up with

05:26that concept part of the idea was like I'll use the skills that I want to kind of keep going with

05:32so that hopefully we can transition people over to my less funny music and it's kind of working

05:37I leveled up some skills and then I made funny videos and now it's like oh I should apply those

05:42to like music music and uh so I'm really excited about that
