REport: Grouchy Goombas and their Three Day Lyric Session!
Added 2020-12-13 12:58:08 +0000 UTCHeyJ team. We're extremely burned out from this project already, and I'm sorry we're not hiding it a little better... ^^; This one's taking a bigtime toll, but after filming this, we put in a few more hours and got it all mostly sorted. That means we're on track to record and get to filming so we can hopefully make our Friday video release as planned!
I truly hope none of you notice any (unusually) weak spots in the lyrics, because we've really laid into these with everything we've got. Even 60 Seconds: The Musical had less time and attention put into its script ultimately than this one, but the reality is that not all songs are created equal and some musicals ARE simply much more awkward and difficult to tell a story through (especially if the plot is complicated or the rhyming/meter is tricky). Suffice it to say, this was the most intense script of the year, and I'm grateful you're there for us even when YouTube's algorithm would have liked us to quit days ago to spit out something half-baked a bit quicker. You guys are champs. ^^
Beard Salute!

2020-12-13 22:32:30 +0000 UTCThat is the PERFECT-sized Goomba plush! And yes, the ~120 Patreon supporters can can all try to tell you to take a break, and maybe a couple hundred other supporters on youtube, but the other 3 million impatient children will be like, "WhErE's GrAnNy?!" Side note: What Child Is This / Greensleeves has always been one of my 2 favorite Christmas songs. God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen is the other. I've never heard a version of either that I didn't like. Looking forward to this one as well!
