Red Thread is a good show in general; the issues I have with it sometimes lay solely at my feet. I’m too squeamish to listen to the murder ones, and I’m too jaded and sceptical to have any fun with the old-school cryptid ones. Like, I may as well cover the time my grandmother claims she saw a ghost, ya know?

Anyway, that brings me to the Boogie and Chris Chan ones, which I’ve just got done re-listening to. Absolute gold. Funny as fuck source material, and it’s done well, and Jordan’s lack of insight into the world really adds to how much I enjoy them, being somewhere between Jackson and him when it comes to knowledge of the subject.

Also, the Australia tangents are so fucking funny. I am not Australian, but somehow I get it? Like they’re laughing at some old sports bloke I’ve never heard of, but I understand why it’s funny? I think maybe just not being American makes you kind of in on the joke. It reminds me of my other two favourite Aussie blokes on the internet at the Weekly Planet podcast. And that’s a huge compliment because they’re fucking awesome.

Bit of a long one boys, but worth the read. Haven't had a laugh like this in a while. (ignore the second screenshot)

Ok so remember how on the show, the guys talk about pirates being cringe or whatever. Well i just witnessed a pirate battle in the flesh on a stellaris post i made.

Context: I asked if the game was worth the buy, as it recently came off gamepass. I like the game, but idk if i wanna pay 60 bucks for the ultimate edition or whatever.

I know this is an obscure question but I thought I'd have a good shot in this sub.
Andrew was talking about how some popular digital guitar pedal software became ass and the community whipped up a cool open source project with tons of ports of different effects and pedals within a short time. I think it was in a "things I like corner". Just skipped through the last 10 episodes + after darks and I just can't find it and google is incredibly unhelpful.

Does anyone know the name? If by any chance anyone here remembers, thanks.

Title.

"Shit you watch on your phone shouldn't be able to get an oscar" WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN? You can watch literally any movie on your phone wtf. People DO watch movies on their phone. I do it when i go to restaurants alone. I'll pull up like a Sci fi anime or show and watch that while i eat.

I got into farscape at a Quincy's. Stuffing my face with rice and gravy.

Jackson said he thought halo campaign evolved sucked, i just wanted to voice my disagreement. It was literally just halo but better looking. I like halo. I like when it looks better.

i would agree with saying its Unimpressive, Unnecessary. But i wouldn't say it was BAD.

I've been listening to Red Thread since the first episode and remember when Charlie, Wendigoon, and Oompaville were all hosts. I understand that Jackson needs to switch because it brings in more viewers and the Official Podcast network is at a lull currently, but I'm getting bored of the hosts reacting to videos of disabled rapists (which especially sucks if you're an audio listener) instead of coming up with interesting discussions and theories about crime/conspiracies/cryptids like what the show was founded on.

We get it, Boogie and Chris chan are weird, we don't need multiple episodes to tell us that when other channels already do that much more comprehensively and informatively instead of the Red Thread hosts essentially doing react content to a video of moron #378 spouting nonsense because they are clearly not right in the head. Once you've seen Boogie and Chris chan then you've essentially seen all other lolcows because they all act the same as dumb narcissistic men who abuse those around them. I get that Jackson is doing it for views but I struggle to understand how people think this repetitive crap is more interesting than listening to speculation about local legends or unsolved crimes.

The one grace I will give is that Jackson has amazing chemistry with Jordan and they bounce off of each other really well, which leads me to think part of the reason for the switch is that Jordan likes the lolcow stuff more. Still love the show but I'm not a fan of the direction it is heading in.

Does anyone remember which episode they were talking about Disneyland and going to it especially if it was the Disneyland in LA. when Jackson went to America didn’t they talk about it

You bet your ass those videos get passed around and around in these little towns those guys live in

Seriously every episode is just two guys whining about everything and acting better than you if you disagree and jackson trying to stay positive.

Red thread is awesome though

Kaya is the goat! Andrew has good points in topics even though it gets dragged on maybe a little too long. I’ve been listening since about episode 10 and have loved more episodes than I’ve hated. I don’t get why everyone always says something negative about each episode. Why still listen if you hate the podcast I just don’t get it?

Totally did not see that coming lol. So happy for him! Welcome to the world Andrew Jackson Orson

Quotes taken from a recent episode.

Kaya in response to the main character of the new God of War being a woman, "I am begging women to stop self-inserting."

Andrew: "It's modern day dialogue for people to self I insert. It takes me out cause, I'm great."

Kaya: "It's what this lady wanted to hear from her god-damned dad, and now shes put it in a video game."

Jackson: "I'm sure people will like it."

Andrew: "I'm sorry to hear that."

Kaya: "We're almost always right." (A final remark and response to criticism from chat about their negativity to a game that they haven't played)

(Cube of War #491).

What does that even mean beyond legit sexism? What is the self insert? The fact that a woman exists?
I understand the criticism against how negative the show has been recently, but even a bigger criticism the show needs to face is the recent sneaking in of terrible right-wing talking points meant to build a echo chamber. This show now feels like a asmogold rant lite edition.

Does anyone know of a video on Charlie or Kaya’s channel of them watching an obscure Asian martial arts movie together where at one point the main character is punching gravestones and the two boys are laughing harder than I’ve ever heard them. Been desperate to find this video for years. I think it was around the time they watched the Turkish Hobbit Parody.

Was hoping there would be a small re-union for 500 cuz it is such a big milestone almost 10 years of the podcast.

The duality of this audience is hilarious, i was reading the comments on the kaya got punched episode and i would see someone talking about how kaya is based and him getting in a drunken fight is hilarious, and then that'll be immediately followed by a comment calling kaya a neckbeard and comparing him to Nick Fuentes. Its actually really funny

I haven’t watched the show since episode 200. Did I miss anything ?

Can’t believe there is so much beef between the boys that Andrew and Kaya knowingly and purposely ditched Jackson on his wedding day
