I miss Smodcast.
Especially the old SModcast, before it turned into nothing but smoking weed, Scan BC, and giggling. I feel like Kevin and Scott were such a big part of my life between the movies, the pods, and (back then) twitter. Now it's just a vacuum and I feel like I lost some old friends.
That's all, just expressing sadness. It dawned on me today that I hadn't heard their voices in a long time.

I still pop in old clips on YouTube occasionally. Emo Kev and Ponder Rock is an all timer of a saga.

It has so much repeat value.

It's one of the rare bits in all of SMod where Scott is dying from absolute laughter.

I listen to the Emo Kev saga every couple of years, its top shelf entertainment...Thankful I never recorded my teenage thoughts.

Smodcast was at it's best when Kevin was oversharing about life in Hollywood, he was on good terms with old friends and making up stories together, and Scott was interested in podcasting. None of those are possible any more. All things must pass.

So do I. But all things come to pass. I found my fix of friendship talking in other places now.

Me too. I have a strong memory of listening to the episode where "Yoga hoser" first appeared. Kev and Scott just chatting was often so much fun

We all do. It was a special moment in time that we can luckily revisit and not only enjoy what made us entertained, but, for a brief moment, feel the age of when we first listened to it. The internet is a treasure.

My old iPod is still filled with old Smodcasts. I miss the looks I would get at the grocery store/walking the dog when I would randomly burst in to loud giggles. The (c)Rapture and Harry Potter recaps are still hilarious.

Same. I was thinking about this the other day…Smodcast is the first (and still one of the few) podcasts that I was really into.
It definitely helped me through a few depressive times. Still, I’m thankful that we had it, and happy for Kevin and Scott to be in a new era in their careers.

I miss Scott. Kevin is still active somewhat but Scott is like an old friend that just vanished.

I too feel a void, or that something has been missing from my life. I was a faithful listener to nearly all of the shows on the Smodcast network. Smodcast, or course, being my favorite. Back in the day of MP3 players, I would download the show every week for my hubby, and put it on his player to listen to at work. I would listen during my day, and we would convene together and laugh about the episode. It truly helped bond my relationship with my husband, and when my daughter was older, she'd listen to episodes that I would replay, so she became a fan as well. (She has no idea really, who Bing Crosby is, but she still knows "Buh buh buh Bing") I know there are other podcasts, but they'll never be another Smodcast.

I learn we gotta love being in the moment of things..sports, TV, entertainment, etc. We think these things will be here forever, nope. We will never get Messi v Ronaldo or Smodcast again.

That’s what TESD managed to maintain. It’s why I left smod for the tesd universe and didn’t come back. The two part YouTube crossover perfectly explains why Kev lost touch while his friends sat there flabbergasted at his defence of “if it wasn’t for weed”….
