So a few weeks ago, Joy came to us and said that she had an idea for a new show. She was going to film it, she was going to edit it, she was going to produce it.

00:13

Today we got to see the show. I don't even know what to say.

00:24

I'm not telling her. If you don't tell her, who's going to tell her? Not me. Gabe, you can tell her. Yes. It's all you.

00:34

Hey, Joy. Hey, Nance. What's up? Yeah, we should probably talk about your new show.

00:41

Oh, cool. Do you guys like it? Let's watch it together and then we can... So solid.

01:13

What's wrong? What if we put a message rolled up in the dog's mouth or on its collar or something?

01:37

Because when a puppy is licking your face, you can listen to the worst news ever.

01:43

Yeah. And it won't matter. It won't matter. As long as the puppy is licking your face. Okay. What if we pay for a carrier pigeon and the carrier pigeon brings her the bad news?

01:54

Why don't we get a star and name it after her? Yeah, we could call it We Don't Like Your Show. Perfect.

01:59

But should we be happy she has a star? Yeah. Who doesn't love a star? Hopefully they're not out of stars. Joy, it's not that it's not a great show.

02:07

It is. So here's the thing that I don't understand. Animal videos are a staple of the internet.

02:15

They get a lot of views and a good animal video can bring you to tears.

02:22

That's the kind of stuff that we're looking for, right? I mean, I love a good animal video. I think Marcus does.

02:28

I think we all do. Can we agree that animal videos are good? I just... don't you think it's getting a little old?

02:33

Is that a serious question? That's totally a serious question. I mean, it's good. I just don't think it really fits our brand.

02:42

Like, I think we can be doing better than that. Something more entertaining, more original. That's what we want is something original.

02:50

Right? Gabe, what do you think? I'm with Gabe. I'm speechless.

02:57

I think you can do a lot better. Okay, well,

03:04

I mean, obviously I like it. Because it's animals. I mean, I had an idea for...

03:10

I was thinking about something. I was thinking about maybe like a show on aliens. Aliens?

03:17

That's a great idea. Nobody does shows on aliens. That's great. Love it. Aliens. Honestly, I pitched the idea for the alien show about a month ago.

03:28

And they all turned me down. They said that it wasn't really interesting enough and not enough people would care about it.

03:37

So, what I decided to do was make something really bad. And they would be happy with me making just about anything else.

03:47

They're distracted. I get to make my alien show. Imagine that everyone in the studio is an adorable kitten distracted by a big ball of yarn.

03:59

With a fluffy tail and tiny little whiskers. Like this.
