Tango and GeminiTay visit Etho post-charity stream travel while Grian interacts via chat. Etho says he and Joel were alone all week and everybody teases him.
19 minutes into Tango's "I AM THE MASTER" stream, April 2024
Transcript:
Tango: So, Etho, what did you do all week by yourself? Were you lonely?
Etho: Dude, it was so dead on this server-
Tango: It was so quiet! I know.
Gem, overlapping: Did you miss us?
Tango, overlapping: He DID! He did!
Gem: Awww!
Etho: A little bit... It was just like- It was like Joel and me, and...................... and that was about it... And Cub came back eventually.
Gem, overlapping: Of COURSE you mention Joel first.
Gem: Not your neighbor, Cub. JOEL. Joel's top of the list.
Etho: But I couldn't even go see Joel because it would've been awkward to, like... just be alone.
Gem: You poor thing...
Tango, reading Grian's message in chat: 'Joel is enough for you.' Yeah...... I see more statues popping up- Who's making them?
Etho: Not me! Okay, something weird is going on- I don't know the deal behind it-
Tango, laughing: Uh-huh...
Etho: I've made two statues... Total.
Tango: Which ones did you make?
Etho: The Joel one... and the other one's... a secret.
[End]
Next, Tango and Gem tease Etho because they're pretty sure the other statues he built are the giant Etho statues, implied to be something he put in front of Joel's base himself. Etho says this is "not confirmed in his video."
guys i know we're all focused on the quite literal things that are in the water this season. but what - and I mean, the fuck - is in the metaphorical AND literal water for Iskall and Beef in particular???? what is wrong with either of them (affectionate). both as individuals and when in contact with one another. cannot get enough of their episodes currently
losing it at both their POVs. their interactions have been some of my favorite things ever actually. big salmon is watching btw
i dont miss the dream smp in the sense that i wish it kept going, but i miss it in the sense that i wish i could love something as dearly as i loved it. i know there’s the qsmp if i wanted or plenty of other content on youtube but its not going to be the same. i was obsessed with it. i wasn’t into it in it’s prime, but when i got into it i got into it and it was impossible to even fathom getting out of it. i know we have the sorry boys but i miss the tom simons vlogs. i know we have generation loss but i miss origins smp. i know technoblade never dies but i miss him.
no matter what happens now it will never be the same, and while change is important and necessary - god knows what wouldve happened if they did decide to draw out a season two - i still miss it. i can’t tell if it’s because i miss being 14 instead of 17, or if i miss the stories and streams themselves, but i miss it.
had a dream that Jenna Marbles came back and in the announcement, we found out there’s also gonna be a podcast called “Exclusively Mumbo Jumbo”
it’s produced by Jimmy Solidarity, but it would be a podcast where Jimmy would just give Mumbo prompts from the audience, then let Mumbo talk into a microphone for 40 minutes. and it’d really be Mumbo just. spiraling into madness on his own bc Jimmy would encourage Mumbo to keep talking on and on so we’d all find out what goes on in that little guy’s brain
If I come back to find there's a Don't Stop The Party about yesterday, I won't be surprised in the slightest. You could honestly make two separate ones and still have plenty of material left over.
