The boys of the Dad Crew sit down to break down the game tape of episode 17. They get into the way Ester compressed the combat in this episode, Matt's remarkable ability to be so in the moment that he can be surprised by his own brain, and the way Anthony stunned Will with Normal's backstory from Sparrow.Plus, they take some questions and talk about their favorite stand up comedians, why Taylor Swift is one of the greatest living songwriters, and what it's like when people find their old work online.

Ever since this teen talk came out, I thought Anthony worked on the Easter movie Hop, instead of HAWP (Hey Ash Watcha Playing" and was very confused 😂😂

Spinnaker

It was so nostalgic to hear HAWP mentioned and in the next sentence I learned that Anthony doesn't like his dad anymore?! Sorry to hear that

Ashley

I had no idea I was taller than Freddy and Anthony lol (technically same height as Will) we do stan the short kings

Nidbot

Short is good who wants to crick their neck pashing a giraffe

CopperKnight

Unsurprisingly i am taller than all yall

Oh to have the confidence of Freddie Wong for just a day. And his commentary on content creation quality is on spot. The RocketJump era felt like creativity and at-home-VFX were tied to the popularity of videos. A few episodes ago when they were talking about creating the 'to catch a predator' bit, they were talking about how to do it and it finally scaled down from costumes to 'it would work if you just used clips from the movie and added meme subtitles' is completely right. A far cry from the expectations of ~08

Them talking height and Freddie raging about 2" difference made me feel self-conscious about my height being 5'5" myself (and experienced those things Anthony mentioned). I don't really care about it for the most part as I embrace my height and my body but its was just a weird moment for me LOL.

tea-and-muffins

Hearing the part about them wanting to go to sleep is really hard to hear at the BEGINNING of my day

Katherine C

I can’t with Taylor Swift (singer not player). Any time they gush about her I don’t understand how we can differ so much because I usually love their recs

MuteMouse

Freddie saying night hawk instead of owl is so jarring 😭😂

the chompie man

Me sitting over here at 5ft 4 😢 saying 5ft 7 is still short

Daniel Roberts

Eddie Murphy " delirious" I burnt that vhs tape out. People would just pay the late fee from blockbuster just to keep it

Marissa Y.

"It's hard being a Taylor Swift and Kanye West fan" "It's like 'Mom and Dad are fighting'?" "Yeah, and also Dad is having some serious issues"

JayneTheYogi

I paused to make my husband listen to that segment because he’s a Super Goof at bedtime. We call him our Court Jester lol

Hayden McKessner

The download button has disappeared for me. Any one else?

Hopie

Download worked fine for me!

Whachamacallit

Same. Had the same problem with another podcast on patreon, so I think its site-wide

spooky_owen

Boys night? Chunts up with that?

Jemsss

omg I was the one with the Taylor Swift question 🥲 I guess Anthony couldn't find it but I LOOVED the Tswift appreciation and convo!! 💕

"If you don't behave I'm gonna raw dog your mom again," is 100% the content I didn't know I wanted when I signed up and is now sharing top space with fan art as the reason I stay

Kenna

matt being a evermore/folklore stan hell yeah

Rosie from Earth

Freddy I thought you were 5’4” and you will always be 5’4” until proven otherwise, aka in front of my own eyes.

Ryley Henry

Doug Stanhope. Patrice Oneal. Sam Kinnison.

Olivia sutherland

Freddy, 5’7” is prime short king real estate. The average male height in the US is around 5’9”

0ri/オリ

Didn’t expect a “ no one wants to work these days” from Freddy 🤪

Freya Hogarth

Eddie Izzard is a woman now, just to correct referring to her as he and him.

maddo

I feel like Iv been dying to hear them talk old YouTube stuff. It’s wild bc I cite Rocket Jump (and I could be wrong) as really kicking off the trend of higher production quality YouTube videos. But now that that kinda stuff is all YouTube I miss the other side that was like HAWP. Goofy short films you made with your friends and siblings.

Clare Beatty

Matt explaining Dorothy's bedtime routine is so much like my daughter's I can't stop laughing

Gmork

George Carlin

Rob

Same here

Taco Dragons

Matt I felt everything you said in your father story in my soul. It was like a mirror of me and my daughter. It was hilarious and a nightmare so thank you for sharing that. :p

Adah Kinzer

I LOVED all of Dimension 404!! I so wish you had gotten more seasons

Samantha Mann

Only having seen Anthony standing next to his sister in HAWP episodes, and him being a whole head taller than her, I legit assumed he was at least Will’s height. Which means Ash is even TINIER than I previously thought! 😧😧😧

Kari Carter

For LA people who like stand-up, you should check out Mike Falzone's crowd work show!

Josh Colc

YOoooo matt is an Acaster fan. letsgo.

Lizabel

Yea stopped the podcast to say this. And her surname is pronounced ‘is-hard’ minus the h (pretend you’re a pirate when you say it!) x

Lazaretto

I'm most likely wrong but I assumed it's the Easter movie with the bunny lmao

Lazaretto

Where can I watch Video Game High School? It used to be on Netflix but I can't find it anymore 😭

Joshua Cody

It's HAWP, "Hey, Ash Watcha Playin'?" I thought it was the bunny movie, too, at first, but did a YouTube search and realized it was that series.

Matt

Where can I watch the uncut episodes?Is it a different subscription tier or am I just missing something

DantePendragon

I came to the show through Hawp and FreddyW. I re-watch HAWP every few years and Freddy's old stuff every once in a while. Freddy's Cross-Fire is one of my favorites.

Hez

"Hey Ash Whatcha Playin" = HAWP

Hez

Anthony, you are not a bear. Otter at best. Sorry bud.

Lazaretto

Thank you!! I didn't think it would be that easy 😂

Joanie

Seconded

Kait O’Mara

Not me listening to this and about half way through thinking….man Beth is so quite 😭

Kait O’Mara

When I was like 10 I started staying up late watching old Comedy Central. Like comedy death jam. Louie, Chapelle, Dave Attell, and Patrice are my greats but Dan Cummins, and Chad Daniels I love so much. Also I know it’s not a popular opinion but Louie is always my number one for comedy and writing.

CHenry

At one point I laughed so hard I forgot I was driving.

Black Mesa Radio

I loved all the stand-up talk! Also, you guys should know that Eddie is a came out as Transgender And now goes by she/her pronouns.

B. J. Boyd

Matt pulled off a Ryan George pitch meeting in real-time

Brendan

Came here to mention the correct pronouns and I'm happy to see I'm late to the party! Eddie was a huge part of coming to terms with my own gender, so I pretty much immediately get ready to fight when anyone gets her pronouns wrong.

karmotrines

If you enjoyed Eddie Izzard's bilingual act you may also like Paul Taylor's #FRANGLAIS, which had me rolling.

Ethan O'Connell

They should check out viva la dirt league. They do a bunch of skits based on video game logic

Mel Mel

Okay so the only time I ever liked Taylor Swift was with the song Shake it off. And then she, as if she fucking knew I was lurking around, took all her songs off Spotify. And I've never really bothered since. But now gonna binge all the albums! :D

Ashley Nicollette

Thank you everyone for this much needed feedback. After we realized that mistake, we took time to edit the episode so that it uses Eddie's correct pronouns. The episode has been replaced with an updated version now!

Meriaha Todd

I love listening and learning so much about the world of making movies

John

There is a great book out called “The Death Of The Artist” which touches on the topic of independent film in much the same way y’all talk about it. It’s interesting to hear you all make similar observations from within the industry!

Jordan Schaefer

I am sad to hear Matt doesn't like Jimmy Carr. I am happy he loves James Acaster. I am a fan. My favorite was the late Sean Lock..

Daisy Terry

Omg absolutely adore Taylor Tomlinson

Alex

I’m surprised they didn’t discuss the intro to this episode. I thought the Dr. Manhattan parody was flat out hilarious 🤣

renaeisgae

i watched dimension 404 afterwards lmao

Worm Wizard

Their discussion about Matt's improv makes mee feel like he has achieved TAO lol

Oddity Monger

Jimmy Carr has that dry, one-liner style that Stephen Wright and Demetri Martin also have which I have a hard time getting excited about as well.

Jordan Schaefer

I have watched him on UK television for a long time. He got me through the pandemic. I watched the back catalog of 8 Out of 10 Cats, a panel show he hosted. His other hosting duties have been awesome. The best was when he came on his topical show to admit to the nation that he was hiding money from taxes and that he was sorry. One of the team captains mentioned "Since I am sure the Queen is watching tonight, hello your Majesty!" While the other one said, "Yeah, hello you royal tax dodging bitch!" He is a prolific name in UK comedy though his stand up is very dry.

Rachel MacArthur

OMG I love how you guys are so damn genuinely NICE to each other. Not enough of that in the world these days. <3

Rae

I miss Beth 💕

Daniel M

Love Taylor Tomlinson. Great to hear her get a shoutout.
