if this sounds out of pocket to like i'm reading into things pls let me know but spencer has seemed a lot happier/in a better mood in the last six months/year of smosh videos (in comparison to the older content he was on). i'm sure a lot of that had to do with the general sadness that came with covid and quarantine but like, i remember him seeming genuinely exhausted in videos and now he seems so happy and comfortable and it's so refreshing and sweet and regardless of what the shift was, im happy for him.
i've also noticed it with people like chanse and arasha who seemed kinda withdrawn in their original videos, but now we can really see their personalities and they seem a lot more comfortable. i think a great example is seeing how chanse has evolved through baf/saf s1 vs s2. it's just so cool to see everyone becoming closer and more and more of their uniqueness being shared.
