Guys it's completely believable that due to dani being sick they ran out of content and maybe Arin was fucking exhausted and didn't do more.

Though yes, if we want to go conspiracy grumps there has been infighting between friends behind the scenes. Hell, conspiracy grumps was even joking that dani being sick was being used as an excuse for dani wanting to leave. Lmao this train keeps rolling.

I don't care about infighting as long as Danny and Arin are together. I cant see Danny leaving. Both of them seem to love each other a lot. I can't imagine anything coming between them.

4+ years going at it can be exhausting. One could realistically reach a point you no longer want to stream video games and focus on something else. Not saying that's what is happening, but doing the same job for years on a schedule might make someone want to take a break.

I believe if they wanted to take a break, they'd either come out and lay out the plan, we're cutting down, one episode a day for a while, etc. Or they'd bring in more people again to take the load off. Maybe one Grumps a day and one with the other people. They wouldn't just stop without any sort of word to the fans. They're basically a brand now. They owe it to their "customers". It'd be like if Apple just up and didn't put out an iPhone this September without a single peep or if Walmart closed a bunch of its stores one day without a press release or word to their stockholders.

Or something like that.

Either way, my Paper Mario episode is up for the day. I'm happy enough.

I mean, I just assumed it was some kind of error, not all that

We'll see later today, I guess

It's most likely an error. Arin has said on Twitter there's more episodes with only him ready to go up. Matt or Ryan probably just forgot to schedule an episode or something.

I think they just don't have a lot of episodes recorded. What with Dan being sick and then leaving right after to their Japan trip and then the holidays. Arin's old art episode just went up and their social media has been rather active today. Sooo yeah, Let's just chill.

Yeah seems like it. No big deal. I mean if they'd forgotten today then there'd be an issue, but it was probably just an oversight. I'm sure the person responsible has been sacked. ;)

Hack frauds! Oh wait, wrong thread.

oh my god. I watched the video of Arin showing the art he made as a kid.

And he created a female character in skimpy clothing that he had to give a reason as to why she only ever wore that, so he came up with her skin heating up too much.

Kojima eat your heart out.

even in the jontron reddit when that shit came up like 90% of comments were people telling him off. Most people when dealing with the topic are saying he fucked up.

At this point watching old Jon content I felt guilty as fuck because the dynamic just doesn't work for me anymore knowing every little 'he didnt mean that' joke or comment is actually something hey may have well meant.

All we can do is look to the future and pray there will never come a time where we look back on Dan's "dirty Armenian" and Chinaman jokes in horror

Mad respect to Arin and Danny calling out the shit he said and saying 'yeah if he's not on, it's because of the questionable shit he said'.

Like yea Danny and Arin have some raunchy jokes, but honestly I can't say I'd see Dan or Arin actually try to push that point of view as something to be taken seriously.

Like my god, the shit JT has said. Maaaaan. Jesus christ it's awful just thinking about it.

Arin and Suzy have said some questionable shit in the past, but considering how many of us have grown as people as time flies by its entirely believable that things they've said in the past are things they aren't proud of now.

It does appear they've both grown over the years, Danny too. I think they've all got their hearts and minds in the right place. Saying dumb shit from time to time and learning as you grow is very different than the shit Jon spouted, writing an article for Brietbart and then having your friends try to normalize that type of attitude or brush it off.

That Paper Mario finale made me so happy <3

It was great being able to revisit that game with them.

Also: return of Mario Maker with Dan Salvato as guest - YES PLEASE :D

Oh that would be awesome.

Also I finally finished DDLC. I took Satuprinssi's advice when stuff got super freaky.

The first twenty episodes of that playthrough are possibly my favorite series. The rest of it was still good, but the creepiness outweighs how funny they were. (Also hearing Dan so defeated makes me sad.)

Someone should have told Danny he could have just gone to the bullet bill cave on the island, equipped Goombella and literally just tapped the Jump button over and over blindly to level up at a rate of one level every 22 minutes.

Not that I have any experience in that.

Yes I do.

It's really fun.

I'm still not at level 99 yet.

"Of course I'd fuck that child!"
onto the internet, lmfao

Really nice episode today with them talking about Arin's recent bout with depression. The way he and Dan handle talking about that stuff really makes me feel better when I think about when I feel like that, it means a lot to me

Which episode? I haven't kept up with Celeste or Odyssey since those don't interest me

Era as a whole is hopefully aware that if who your favorite youtuber is friends with is problematic, you'd lose a lot of people you watch. They probably would have not cut off Jon until all the shit from last year, and its not like he was a saint before.

I would hope so. I literally can't think of a single Youtuber that doesn't have a problematic friend or associate. Maybe Steve Shives, but no one likes him.

Hearing Dan and Arin talk over Odyssey yesterday and today

They're extremely humble and modest about it? I wish them all the best :3

YOUR AVATAR IS GONE

PANIC!

and yeah I'm kinda excited to watch Majoras mask. Having never played any Zelda game completely, Majoras mask is the one I always wanted to see a playthrough of because I love it's aesthetic. And it's opener is SOMETHIGN
Don't worry, it will be back soon. :P

Also, one minute in and Arin is already trashing an 18 year old N64 game for its graphics. XD
