As you are probably aware, I accidentally gave a massive boost to Patreon numbers by effectively selling a video of buttplugs. (Can't wait until the next time I'm publicly asked the best way to grow a membership service.)

As a result, we've got hundreds of new people who just missed a Q&A video. So: Let's do it again!

If you have a question, leave it as a comment on this video before Monday and I'll film all the answers then. (Anyone can ask a question, not just new people, obv.)

So, a while back you made this series of sketches called "Ideas Men" with Damien Slash (whom I only discovered thanks to that, so thanks loads... :) - how did that come about?

AbyssForger

A few questions if that's alright :3 1) Are there any systems you actually have that you've always wanted to make a video about but couldn't because it never fit? 2) What is/are the weirdest peripheral/s you own? 3) Have you ever regretted a video? Like unpacking something that actually had immense resell value? 4) With the new patreons that may be gone after this month, anything else to plug except butts?

Hey Ashens! Been thinking about this for a while but this'll probably be an easy answer for you, will there ever be a chance of you opening up a Durian fruit? Quite horrifying stuff... Oh yeah and also, huge fan of your talks in the Norwich Gaming Festivals that you've attended! Absolutely love watching them I have the time.

Forgive me if this is forbidden or has been asked already, but I was always curious what the "Very bad thing" was that slowed down Polybius?

Have you considered installing a fume extractor above your sofa for when you do blind bag videos?

NadetteNoire

For once I'm going to ask a serious question. Well not really a question per say, but more a comment. I really adore the unusual skits and animations you used to do. They are marvelously weird, creative, and absurd. Please set free your oddly radiant creativity again, like Henry Pickles, The Silver Skull and Kenneth Lightly or something along those lines. What can I give to you to make this happen? Money? A house? A car? Three crowns if I can avoid the "no digging 'ere" guy?

CT_Sykes

Are there any plans for a 3rd film?

Jacob Alexander Tice

Will we ever get a new Terrible Old Games video? Do you still have Oscar? Why did you close the website?

Kay Thea

If you had unlimited funding for a single review video, what item(s) would you review and why? For the purposes of this thought experiment you are easily able to source these items, no matter how old, weird, or terrible they are. ...also, was there any specific unfortunate event that caused you to stop setting things on fire on your sofa?

Talkren

Talkren from Chepstow asks : What do you think, to date, are some of the best remakes, remasters, or recreations of retro PC games? I recently picked up DaggerFall Unity and fell in love with that game so I am curious to hear your favorites.

Alex Strudwick

What job(s) did you have before becoming a youtuber/content creator?

John Tillyard

1) Has it always been the same brown sofa? 2) Have you played Stray? 3) Will you ever review Stadia?

Nub

Why do I live in Chepstow?

Not Susan.

Following the paywall for buttplugs will the xxx ashens website that was made as a joke be turned into something else?

Not Susan.

A hotel I stayed at in Malaysia had massive signs everywhere saying do not take durian into the hotel rooms.

Paul Jacobson

Did you bring any stuff back from Canada that you're planning to do future videos on?

John Tillyard

Personally I wouldn’t call that a review.

Quadrant

Do you plan to unbox more butt plugs in the future?

Inept Singularity

If you made an Ashens themed scented candle, what would it smell like?

AbyssForger

Point is that that's most likely all you're gonna get. And having it titled "the true potential of the Stadia" sure does sound like a sentence to critically unpack

Reed Naylor

What are your favorite long running horror movie series? Need recommendations for Halloween

John Tillyard

I wouldn’t mind seeing a proper review.

Brokeneggz

A wizard has cast a spell on you which forces you to go back to university over the next few years to complete a new degree. What course would you pick if you just had to finih by passing? Would it be a different course if you had to finish with a distinction (high level) average?

Leak

I think there's a good chance Stadia will join the Google Graveyard(TM) before this happens...

John Tillyard

He probably doesn’t have anymore.

John Tillyard

He would need to review it before it goes under since it’s a steaming service.

Leak

I'd smell another Wish.com episode coming... :D

Lonerjon

Can you do a dancing monster with Dave’s song please? That would kill two birds with one stone!

Babycat

What is the absolute worst, all-time food you've ever eaten that made you barf spectacularly, and made you say: "Nope. Not on your Nelly. Never again. Not even if there was an apocalypse."?

Alessandro Perlini

Is Norwich a good place for sightseeing (monuments, churches, maybe countryside or landscapes in places nearby)? I'm interested in going back to England after 17 years but not in a very crowded place, so I'm curious.

Alex Segal

How did you enjoy your time in my hometown of Toronto? And did you have a chance to visit a Dollarama store?

Rich miles

Is there any plans to do more knock off dvd’s or action figures videos?

Dan Stevenson

Have you ever had an idea for a video series that you absolutely loved, but for whatever reason you were unable to do? If so what prevented it?

Roger Moore's Loafers

Have you ever seen any YTPs of your videos? Where did you get your intro music from? Can you play any instruments?

Charlotte (Char10tti3)

This bit isn't a question but I can't seem to fin the "Weird things i remember from kids TV" you mentioned in the last Q&A and would love to know how exactly I can find it. Also I'm currently dealing with moving and writing customs declaration and a clause in a global shipping company that prevents shipping of "unmentionables" / "marital aids". That reminded me of a conversation I had with a female friend in the EU. She said when the companies get creative with the contents, and you get a lot of "decorative silicone sculptures" being shipped over.

Cadillac Pants

Any plans for a NoeGeo Pocket review? I loved the Casio Loopy video, so any other odd consoles would be great too like the Apple Pippin or the FM Towns Marty. I remember you mentioning that you were selling your complete Sega Saturn games collection, why?

Andy

Do you ever wish you'd built your career around buying things you do actually want to own?

Leak

Ummm... while you're at it, maybe you could also give a review of COVID? It might sway some people to try and avoid it... :)
