while niche, will a The Expanse version of the Showdy ever pop up? I really enjoyed the Marvel and Star wars Showdy's and wondering if there are any others in the works. Star Trek would also be cool but that could also just be a cluster fuck of references and lore complexeties that might be too much for some.

DancingOni

There are some references to directors and the other members of the show on the Patreon and I'm wondering if you want to involve more members of your crew into the "supporting cast" of the show.

DancingOni

Cody and Crew, as I have watched your show, I feel more informed on the issues that I have overlooked or am unable to do (or take) more research into, but as such, I feel a sense of powerlessness or lack of agency as I learn more about how these issues are large and why they are unapproachable for the most part. i'm just wondering if you feel the same, (Real life Cody and crew, not Cody in the Showdy) or if you have always felt this way and are just seeing more of it now.

Chas Coffman

Do you guys ever think about the direction of where your career and personal beliefs would be if Facebook hadn't manipulated your old company into making more video content?

Eliot Hochberg

How many folks does it take to research your pieces? And about how long does it take, let's say in people hours? How many episodes do you work on at the same time, or are you able to research, write, and shoot each ep in a week? Also, are any countries in the world doing society correctly?

Quickduckling

What's your opinion about Bill C-223 in Canada. Bill C-223 is An Act to develop a national framework for a guaranteed livable basic income so UBI under a different name Also just have to say I love you guys very much! Personally I'm excited as can be that my country might become a post scarcity society.

Urnow

What is a topic you would love to have the freedom/time to cover in as much depth as you want. Assuming ideal circumstances (information is readily available, the rest of the world doesn't have a new pressing fire in need of covering, the YouTube demonization machine is broken that month)

Chris Belsole

What are the chances of getting a good news segment on the show? You have a broken news segment where you run through a bunch of events that suck, but there is also a lot of good happening in the world that deserves to be highlighted.

Zach High-Leggett

A while ago you talked about the possibility of doing a project that focused more around media and pop culture. I really enjoy the Worst Year Ever digressions where you do this. Is there any chance of a project happening with this focus?

James Sailor

What got you all interested in doing a news podcast and YouTube show ? Was it something small that snowballed into the deep dark chaos that is now ? Or were y’all always so radical?

Alexandre Medeiros

how are you folks dealing with the hopelessness that we get from all this accumulated bad news lately? especially regarding thinking about your personal future in the long term.

Elliot Smith

Do you have any comments regarding the wild boars that attacked Shakira and tried to steal her purse with her cellphone? Are our phones and information safe from their grubby hooves?

Collin Chepeka

What are your honest thoughts about Canada? Would you consider featuring more Canadian political content?

Ryan

As you probably have heard, CNN+ shut down after being on for a day and a half and spending over $250M. Q1: Do you think it had a chance if they tried to release this during Trump's presidency? Q2: How many episodes of SMN could you produce with $250M ? lol

T Gordon Mayhall

If you were going to reframe the constitution and Bill of Rights, to make it match more with our current times, who are some of the political writers you'd want to take up that task?

Michael Negranol

What are some specific systemic differences other democracies have that America would greatly benefit from?

Dark Puppy

Why did you open the forbidden book and bring Warmbo into this reality?

Sidekick

When is Katy getting her own puppet? Will it be a classic hand puppet or perhaps a marionette? One of those big two person muppets like Big Bird?

Tami Wolff

Is there a path to actually move away from Capitalism to a Capitalism/Socialism hybrid in the US? Will GenX be passed over as political leaders, with the torch being pried from the cold, dead hands of Boomers/Silents by Millenials? You often mention that money isn't real. Do you propose an alternative, or are we all good agreeing on it's value? Do you think we would be in these energetic, fraught, exciting times with #metoo and BLM if Trump had not become President?

Steven Gruber

Dear Brad Wilkie: I can answer that: Yes, Cody does have legs, but they are dwarfed by his penis.

Cell

When will we meet Warmbo's children?

BingoFrog

What’s a good YouTube video you’ve seen recently, or a podcast you’ve recently discovered?

Jared Pasqua

I need a Jordan Peterson episode... i know though, a lot going on out there at the moment.

Sarah

Do you think we could make Twitter so unprofitable that Elon Musk loses a good chunk of his money? I mean, I know he has such a fake amount of money that he could never run out, but I think it would at least be funny if he wasted billions of dollars on it. Ya know, like when Yahoo bought Tumblr and then they had to sell it at a loss. How would you guys like to ruin Twitter so we could all finally be free?

Sword n' Bored

Can you go back to using Cody's time travel noises when you time travel, or has that been destroyed by Katy and Sophie? Real question: you work with a lot of different writers, and are starting to branch out into featuring Katy more. Would you possibly include more actors/comedians on the show to present the news, or will it be a strictly Cody's Showdy and sometimes Warmbo/Katy?

vargonaut

How did Katy's boss-persona develop?

vargonaut

How do you know you've done enough research on a topic? How big is your idea list? :)

Amazing Roleplay Enjoyer May the Force be with you

Can you do another back arc where cody goes on a journey of exploration. Like the same story arc that you did with your union videos where cody broadcasted from a "rebel yt station" but in this case the story will be about despair and maybe hope. Or about the importance of entertaining, accurate and wholesome news sources. Act 1: cody is fed up with all the negative news, quits on stage and news gal tries to convince him to stay ; Act 2: news gal takes over, she does a good news job but something is missing, something more scruffy; Act 3: we check in on cody on "Fox news" he completely gave up on helping the working class navigate the news he is now cynical cody; Act 3 B: Or you can cut to cody laying on the sidewalk in utter depression; Act 4: Cody is shown the ways he helps the world understand the news and make it more entertaining, scruffy and fair and balanced TM C R. Thank you for reading , your favorite ghost writer and dnd player Victhor

Dean Kelly

Where did the theme music + sting come from? I've heard it in a few episodes of China, IL so SMN and China, IL must exist in the same universe. Any chance of a crossover/guest spot with Golden Bowl/Gary Anthony Williams since y'all run the same music?

Erik Zimbardi

How big is it? girth by width please

Elliot Smith

I noticed the last live stream of Cody eating batteries is no longer available. Is there still a copy of that available?

Elliot Smith

Is Katy omnipotent and/or omnipresent? Asking for a friend, thanks!

Jphilli

Y’all gonna do an episode on drowned cities and ways the gov uses infrastructure to fuck with black people?

Artemis Zeidman

Is Warmbo friends with Scaredy Cats’ Bobby Dook? I don’t know why, but the thought of a shared, extended SMN/Thought Slime universe brings me great joy.

The Voïd

Y’all hiring writers?

Eamonn Hickey

What are some things you've found helpful to shake off the feelings of powerlessness and general dread from the impending climate/financial/social crises? Or how can we best affect change while it seems impossible to change anything nationally or internationally?

Marissa Lopez

What happened to the new tie? Went through two whole episodes about labor and unions, you get your demands at the end, then the new tie isn't seen again. Is this a subtle way of pointing out companies who make promises then back track?

Andrea Obaez

You mentioned recently in your podcast how the left has no unified message. Would you and your people be willing to work on creating quick, easily digestible, political messaging that we as an audience can then spread?

Chelsea Now-Tetzlaff

What the literal fuck are we supposed to do to not completely fuck over our children? Cause it feels overwhelming and impossible. And the people that could help change shit are soulless overlords that DGAF because they are rich and their families will be spared (maybe?).

April Hughes

I really fear the results of the next presidential election, if it goes the way I think it's going to go. I want to move to Ireland or Scotland. My S/O wants to "stay and fight." How bad do you think it's going to get? What would you do if the shit hit the fan?

Stephanie Kay

If you were a ghost, where would you want to haunt?

SmolDickRich

Where do you think the democrats stand going into the 2022 midterm? What hurdles do you all think they might have?

Sarah

Do you think there's a way people could convince news sites to shift away from paywalls at some point? I think free access to news is essential to a healthy democracy and it seems like the fact that so many sources of good information remain locked behind paywalls when places like Fox peddle their harmful misinformation for free is having an extremely harmful effect on our communities. How do you think we could work to make good information more accessible to everyone?

BarnCatBlues

A group of peccaries is a "Squadron". The question is: How much more proof do you need?

Alec Walker

A couple of questions about the current state of the right-wing mediasphere (Crowder, Shapiro, Peterson, Carlson, Jones etc): Are there any figures or content creators you would be willing to sit down and talk with? Are there any figures or content creators you definitely wouldn't be willing to talk to, and whereabouts do you draw the line?

Teri Hammond

Can we sue MTG for calling us pedophiles? Are you guys getting any sleep? You were correct, this IS the dumbest timeline. What are we gonna do? Glad you guys are here. You're doing a good thing. Thank you ❤️

Ugha Dreamin

a question... hmmmm..... is there any way other than being super rich to change the laws of a society? if you say by voting, well yeah obviously. idk i guess im looking for an answer thats easy and will make change fast which is probably not gonna happen. so a different question would be, i believe capitalism promotes greed as a byproduct of itself. since we've seen it in effect for the last couple of hundred years, the evidence shows that the only people it really benefits is the gov. and the richest of the rich who lobby the gov. into doing what they want.(gov. should make lobbying illegal, we should also demolish the electoral college) so basically im trying to ask, if you could change our economy and political system what would you change it to and why do you believe that change would benefit anyone positively? also(lemme know if its too many questions(or not cause i doubt anyone responds to the comments lol)) do you believe that nuclear energy could be used as a clean energy source with enough time and research done on it? if not then what other alternatives would suggest for our society moving forward? also SOME MORE QUESTIONS here if you want em, what are you opinions on the gov. using private corporations for things they should be providing themselves(i.e prisons or electricity or health)? also regarding prisons; do you think prison sentences that dehumanize do anything to help those who have been arrested(i think being sent to prison in general is dehumanization imo)? or do you even think prison sentences dehumanize people?(i would suggest answering this question first before the other one) if not then why is that your belief? i have more questions and i kinda wanna write them all down. -do you believe the gender standards perpetuated to the media are true or only partially true due to the many years of this propaganda influencing people's mating choices(thus in turn influencing evolution(like how they breed dogs ;-;))? if its the latter then why is that? and do you believe these standards could be detrimental to the progression of human society? if you dont agree with the latter, then do you think along with physical traits that mentality(as in a certain way of thinking) can be passed down genetically or culturally? probably culturally tbh -do you think elon musk(aka musty) buying twitter was a ploy to distract us from the gov. trying to make it more difficult for women to get abortions? if so do you believe there are other things going on other than the abortions that the gov. wants to hide from us other than its racism, classism, and sexism?(more specifically like laws thatll prevent making a corpo reliable for any of its wrong doings or something thats just an example) -do you think bernie sanders actual cares for the people? if not then my next question is do you think the democratic party only exists to exude the presence of a "democracy"? do you think they exist to make things more difficult for the progression of society? as in do they only exist as a pretend barrier for the republicans? -if we could change our gov. system what format would you suggest if you could? would a volunteering system(where all participants would be vetted and questioned thoroughly(also paid training would be provided or should be provided to all who are volunteering for the positon and passed the questioning(the questioning i believe should be based off of empathy and how much one has for the people around them, i think as a gov. official that is important))) that constantly switches out for different people for office after a limited time would possibly deter gov. officals from using their position of power for themselves since the time they spend in the gov. would be very limited and is based of off volunteers instead of heritage? if not then what do you think would deter the greed of gov. officials? -do you think we're in need of a revolution in order to change anything about the gov.? if so then how do you think itll happen and what consequences would we look at in doing so? if not then what nonforceful ways do you suggest the people move in, and why do you believe the outcome would be better in doing so? are there any consequences that outweigh the pro's of doing things peacefully? and do you believe the gov. would budge if everyone were to agree on something like for example getting higher wages? -also in your latest video at this time, i was kinda confused by the ending. it seems as though inflation only happens because the most powerful countries deem it so or influence it indirectly due to a lot of corporations residing in our country or other superpowers(as in super rich and powerful countries). not even the countries really, mostly just the corporations deem it so. it all still seems made up to me and from the very beginning against the people since inflation only rises when the common folk spend more money. so do you believe capitalism and inflation was only created as a pretense of security but in reality a way to oppress people further based off where they were born(like if you were born in a rich family or a poor one)? if so do you believe this mentality is attached to our civilization being a monarchy in its very beginnings? do you think our gov. is still a monarchy since most who get gov. official jobs are born into it or have family that are in it? -do you think media(like google or any social media really to be honest) influences people more than they let on? and will show google results based off of your previous searches and what you've clicked on? for example if someone with radical ideas would have a different google result than someone who does not? also do you think that this is also being done to celebrities as a form of torture or maybe accidentally a form of torture for the mind? if so how far do you think they influence people even themselves(cause rich people use google too right?) or have influenced people? -do you remember when kanye west spoke up for black people during a hurricane and the way they were being represented in the media? if so do you remember when he supported trump fully a few years ago? if so then do you think celebrities get punished and/or tortured for speaking up for the people? do you believe kanyes sudden change of beliefs were of his own doing or that of the people who have more power than him? if so why do you think that rich people wouldnt do that when they manipulate and indirectly kill people on the daily? do you think celebrities are being used by rich people(in abusive ways too, like sexual, physical, and mental) as another means to influence people with propaganda and their own agenda? -another question; my last one lol. do you remember michael jackson? do you know about how he tried to normalize other peoples kids to sleep in the same bed as him? if so then 1. do you think it was okay for michael jackson to sleep with kids in the same bed even if they were the ones that asked? 2. do you think the over sexualization of women and kids even propagate the mentality of a pedophile? do you think the gender sterotypes surrounding mothers and fathers further incentivizes the fathers(mostly, or other men in the family like brothers or uncles or male cousins that are older/younger/same age(there are women who do it too but this question is more towards the oversexualization of women and the dangers it has)) to think of the women in their life as mere objects of sexual desire instead of an individual? do you think when telling a little girl to cover up we are indirectly saying her body is like that of porn(something to not be shown in public due to how inappropriate it is, something of sexual desire, a distraction) and in turn teaching everyone that a womans body is something to be sexualized? if you do think this then how as a society would we work around that? do you think porn dehumanizes women and make them be seen more as objects? do you think women over sexualizing themselves as liberation(like celebrities or Instagram models etc etc) actually harms the everyday women and causes them to be objectified and sexually harassed on a daily basis? do you think the gov. tries to normalize pedophiles when creating laws against trans people who when not taking action to prevent actual pedophiles from taking advantage of young adults/kids? do you think the continued support of celebrities like michael jackson or elvis furthers that normalization? do you think adults and kids can be friends? do you think corporations trying to make everything family friendly but try to still keep the adults attention with older jokes scattered also normalizes the oversexualization of kids/women(also music kids listen to is super sexual nowadays, do you think that affects it aswell?)? if so what would you suggest moving forward as a society? -do you think the oversexualization of men would lean more towards the perpetual portrayal of men being always horny would affect men growing up? if so how do you think we should de sexualize our society? -do you think the gender stereotypes are enforced to distract the american people as much as possible like with taxes? since men are taught to pump and dump and women are taught to get a man and stay with him as long as possible(get married asap, have kids asap) has created a dynamic (now not all men and women do this but a lot do) in which men have to lie in order to get a women and women force themselves to be in a long term relationship they dont want to be in. plus with a lot of propaganda suggesting that women and men are practically two different species which is untrue -do you think black people using the n word(im black and white btw, my moms black and my dads white) as a form to take back their power is in a way(not as much as white culture already does it of course) not very helpful at all since its in our music and the way we use the n word with each other is often in a derogatory way? (its okay if your not comfortable with answering this question, i was just curious about the social dynamic of having the n word in a lot of our everyday music but white people get demonized when singing the lyrics but its been ingrained into our culture through social media/media) ive been trying to stop using the n word cause i noticed i would often use it too look at people like they a fool but then its as if by taking power of the word we are taking power of the racism towards us by now its us being racist to us. hope that made sense -just realized i said this is my last question a long time ago and im still typing questions. anyway thank you for reading if you did, even if you didn't ive kinda created some new questions here that ive never thought of so it would be fun tryna figure it out, therapeutic in a way. (not fun hearing about how we're all opressed, its just interesting seeing what human society does and how the people will react based on how they are treated, i like to make the connections cause everything kinda connects everything. not in a conspiracy theory way ofc(but you donno that cause you donno me, actions speak louder than words but i cant really show my actions so its up to you for whether you believe the words i type or not. no hard feels if you dont lol i can understand why)) anyway just remember you can always change your mind and i hope ya have a good one :)
