I can totally see myself as this guy. With my ADHD hyperfocus and general obliviousness, that could very easily have been me, just la di dah ing through some creepy shit. The conversation he had with Megan really, REALLY sounded like me "Welp, doing my thing, paying attention to thing, but someone wants to talkk [ugh] so I'mma make vague interested noises while I do my thing."
I can see why Megan was shocked the first time. This Chad just walked in, had a pleasant conversation with her about getting flensed, and pulled a lump of flesh out of her drain without even blinking an eye, let alone gettong scared
Love that they were like "HE DIDN'T NOTICE!!?? CALL HIM AGAIN!!" And literally forced him to look in order for him to realize what was going on, legends only Sebastian 🤣
I like to think that Sebastian was Megan's first "case" or something. And she got so frustrated that he wasn't picking up on her subtle, well-practiced creepiness that she had to call him again and just shoved him into the room so he'd see it all or she'd be teased by all the other demons forever
i like to think that sebastian had encountered several paranormal things before, and just... didnt notice. like he bumped into a not-them at a supermarket while they were in their normal form and was just like "oh sorry have a nice day"
the fact that she called him back because he didn't notice anything the first time is actually hilarious?? like he specifically mentions that this terrifying creature was just... SHOCKED by how completely oblivious this dude was and was like' ok time to try again I guess'
@@eabhaishere4558 This is actually true because (spoilers!!!!) in a later episode where they take a statement from a guy who has probably adhd, he basically tells how he escaped a manifastation of the spiral unharmed because he lost focus XD. I'm genuinly starting to believe that the entitys have a hard time making adhd people do the things they are "supossed" to do in these situations
Megan had to grab my boy Sebastian by his face and literally force him to look at the scene for him to realise that something was wrong. What a man. Much respect. Wish this happened in a horror movie. The demon just trying harder and harder for the protagonist to notice it. The protagonist only notices it days after it has given up and is crying in a corner.
I would watch that in a heartbeat, the desperate barely passing for human monster trying to goad the oblivious protagonist into the nightmare plot while he's just like "hey this is my friend Craig! A real joker this one, y'know? We should get together for a movie night sometime"

I love the idea you could possibly defeat the fears by essentially ignoring them. They'd basically be the mascots from that one Simpsons Halloween special.
Yeah and that one woman in the subway survived because she just excepted her death and stopped being scared. They just want fear and when you don't give it to them they get bored or pissed off.
@@Child_of_Fae I think that's different, the blanket thing built false securiti so at the end it was way scarier than first, maybe if you don't give a fuck from the start, if it kills you it kills you, it stops finding it funny.
I feel like it's less ignoring them and more not noticing them. Like, if you notice it, and then you try to ignore it, that's not going to work. (I'm fairly sure there are episodes where someone noticed and attempted to ignore the fears and it ended badly for them, but I don't remember which lol)
I'm thinking "ok but who the hell is playing the calliope" and then I thought: Squidward: but who was turning off the lights? *cuts to Nosferatu messing with the lights Sea gang: _Nosferatu!_ And it sort of put me at ease. Seriously though, we know that Breecker and Hope are in some way tied to the circus, and the circus is comprised entirely of Not!People, or at least things I call The Other if I'm wrong about the Not!People. They definitely aren't human. The circus is also tied to the cursed clown doll and idk, maybe they're trying to turn Jon into one of those dolls? Thinking back on it now I wonder if maybe that clown was the victim, not the culprit. Maybe it was warning that woman. And the calliope. I know the music is strange and can be heard up to a mile away. I wonder if that too is a warning, or a threat. The man that became a doll, he also heard the music even when the instrument wasn't playing. Up until it got him. Bottom line is they know where Jon is and someone wants him to know that. Maybe they're trying to direct him towards a certain path? Or to keep him away
@@hamburgerdog25I really like that. Also, that just reminds me of the Piper episode, where the soldiers who were about to die also heard that pipe music while the others didn't
Sometimes minerals get clogged in drains and it turns water red. I used to live in a rental and any time I’d come home from a vacation the water would run red for a few minutes in the drains because the minerals would add up from not using the pipes for a week
As a plumbers apprentice, it’s more accurate than you’d think. There’s a pretty strong tendency to just keep your head down and disassociate while on the job
I can just picture the demon going through the outfits it has and trying to pick the loudest most attention grabbing one for Sebastian's second visit 😂😂
that sudden moment it hits you that sasha being introduced arguing about calliope music (and its link to the stranger) was foreshadowing her fate as not!sasha.......... how did i not notice this
The thing I love about this so much is that not only was "Megan" completely baffled at this, she got freaking JUDE PERRY to come along and watch. I just have to hear that conversation.
this one is hilarious bc i can only imagine megan getting more and more frustrated and desperate trying to creep sebastian out all while sebastian is whistling along doing his work like everything is fine
Gotta love Sebastian. This whole story reminds me of the Simpsons Amityville horror parody, where Homer's basically like "You didn't tell me this house was built on an Ancient Native American burial ground! ... Wait, you did? Six times?"
Josh cared, he just beat every horror movie trope in the book. "Creepy dude tells me not to open the box, there's a note on the box saying not to open it, it has strange noises coming from it....I better not open it, who knows what could happen if I did?'
What about the absolute queen of lady who found herself in a creepy old train with a man, who was half dead, and just thought, "screw this, I'm gonna have a nap?" She was amazing.
Everyone over here talking about Sebastian and I'm just loving the confirmation that Gertrude was just as much of a theatre kid as Jon. That hint of a Welsh accent. *chef kiss*
At least you did it right, I first typed down "flancing" which was actually pretty funny given that she spread her arms wide when explaining to him xD "A combination of Dancing & Flying. Standing around with arms outstretched, to music either real or in your own head. Traditionally performed while intoxicated. Making your own noises is optional."
Mkay, I don't know what the main interpretation is but every time I imagine Gertrude I just see a short curly haired old woman who could absolutely destroy you, full on beefcake, muscle for days. Idk why, it's all I can see
Honestly, same. I usually picture her hair tied back in a bun, but yeah other than that I absolutely picture her as an old lady who could beat your ass six ways to Sunday! 😎
I imagine a portly hunched over old woman that takes off her jacket and she’s absolutely ripped and armed to the teeth with monster hunting tools and also just human hunting tools

I like to think that the Rusty Quill staff look at the comments on this video and laugh at us calling Sebastian a himbo or or a king Along with plenty of other videos of course where we called the protagonist or the "supernatural" beings dumb or stupidly adorable or even one of them where we all said spoke about the guy(forgot his name) wanted to get pegged by the tall and intimidating Agnes

I love the statements so much on their own but the ongoing plot is just as amazing! It's so heartbreaking to hear Jon struggling to keep it together. I hope everyone turns out okay. Thank you for sharing!!!
"What strikes more than anything else" Not the fact that there are clear factions, named individuals with power, several shadowy schemes going on, and a coming apocalypse, it's that it was just a bit before Gertrude died. Really, Jon?
Okay, I came to look at the comments to see if anyone had theorized how this episode correlated to the main story, but all I'm seeing is how oblivious the plumber was to the whole thing... and honestly, I'm having a blast reading them!
Georgie is my hero, I strive to be like her. No judgement, perfect conflict solving skills and "just think about it, okay? You can choose to leave it alone". I adore her
Sebastian's a legend. Reminds me of that episode in The Office where everyone was trying everything to get Stanley to notice their weird/crazy get ups but Stanley just didn't care enough to notice
Oh my god he's literally me. I'm so unobservant, I once completely missed the fact that a building right near my house that I passed by almost daily for years had been knocked down. I didn't know about it until months after the fact and my dad looked at me like I was crazy when he had to tell me that "Yes, there was a HUGE building there". I couldn't even remember what it looked like because most of the time my eyes just pass over things my brain deems unimportant. It happens way more often than I'd like to admit. It can be frustrating and embarrassing but also pretty hilarious and usually harmless.
Me:- god this episode was so creepy and scary and the circus music at the end spoiled me hard. Also Me:- God this episode was so hilarious and it reminded me of the canterville ghost
I genuinely think that the circus music starting to play was the moment I have been most scared listening to this, up with the jumpscare of the not thing getting Sasha. Lmfaoo
This was the funniest episode since the one with the Buried ghost train with the weirded out train Aspect kicking out the lady who was just accepting everything that was happening and not freaking out!
Megan: *baffled by this guy ignoring blood and fat and skin* Sebastian: poor lady. She probably thought that blockage was too gross and felt sick. I get it.
I can't imagine this podcast without its' comment section 🙏🏼I love diving right into it after every episode, to share laughs and insights with the community. Also, it hinted me towards lots of stuff I'd otherwise totally missed! Thank you guys ❤
Oh. Ohhhh. (Ep 111 spoilers) . . . . . Consider: The Entities are our fears. According to Jude Perry, Avatars need to "feed" their fears, i.e. somehow invoke that fear in others. Jude and Megan probably intended for Sebastian to be very scared by horrible things he saw there, and escape with some very frightening stories to spread around, making lots of tasty fear for them. Instead, he came there and _didn't even notice_ the things that were supposed to scare him. Basically, it's like they ordered UberEats and the driver forgot the food. XD
She was SO flabbergasted that he never noticed so much she invited a friend Then FORCED him to look into the room She really went "bro come on, you are gonna get yourself killed. Here you go werido, so odd"
"When the unknowing begins one of the dancers will be wearing his face." God, it sends me chills. Absolutely amazing podcast that manages to scare me but I can't stop listening :). Although ı think ı need to stop listening before going to the bed.
My dude really got out scot free first time around by flunking all his perception rolls. I also love the hint of lilting in Gertrude's statement reading.
tbh given the title i thought this would be a tech-based one, maybe more background on that guy who ate his computer? but i'm much more pleased with this, i absolutely loved every second of this episode
This is my favorite statement because I've always said that if I was in a horror movie the creature or killer would be trying to scare me by doing something ominous and I would just not notice it. Sebastian oblivious king I feel you.
The circus music near the end spooked me worse than the rest of the episode, I was right there with Jon Sebastion is such a legend tho, sad there won't be more of him it seems
"She seemed a bit taken aback by this, so I apologized, assuming I had been a bit too crude for her, and I asked her where I could find the problem drain." I listened to this with a friend a while back, while we were both high. Both being asexual, and knowing how it feels to have to rephrase because people think you mean something else, we both decided that the best interpretation of this is that while Sebastion is trying to speak directly and not faff about, Megan took his words to be flirtatious (crudely so, but still). I love the idea of an eldrich abomination trying to scare a dude, and then getting flustered because she thinks he's not just not scared, but genuinely attracted.
@@nightcollapse I mean, yes, she was. The entire episode is about a guy who's too clueless to even notice the spooky shit going on, so that's part of it. That line in particular wasn't "flirtatious", and yeah, she was probably more shocked about how casual he was being about the whole thing.
I just imagine Megan calling the invisible flame woman all annoyed after the himbo had left and ruined the night. To witch the fire lady just told em that they'd come over with few beers tomorrow so they could try again

Okay, I came to look at the comments to see if anyone had theorized how this episode correlated to the main story, but all I'm seeing is how oblivious the plumber was to the whole thing... and honestly, I'm having a blast reading them!
Sebastian's whole attitude is just: 🤷♂️🤷♂️
He seems like the guy to avoid certain death via seeing a shiny penny and picking it up.
Georgie is my hero, I strive to be like her. No judgement, perfect conflict solving skills and "just think about it, okay? You can choose to leave it alone". I adore her
I love how we see the single most oblivious individual that ever lived and collectively name him our hero. We salute you, Sebastian 🫡
We stan one Sebastian
The slight Welsh accent when she first says 'mE-ghan' lmao i love it
I was wondering if I could detect a faint Welsh accent on Gertrude. It seems much stronger on this episode.
Megan: hey 😁 your surnames skinner right? want me to skin you for real
Sebastian:oh I’m not one for arts and crafts
Megan :😀😄😀 what
this is my fav comment ive seen so far lol
My ADHD, a bigger gift than I thought. Explains so much
I spent most of this statement just cracking up at Sebastian's attitude
re-listening to this statement, the first half is SO MUCH FUNNIER when you understand the context 🤣
I relate so much to Sebastian's obliviousness!
It's really cool that her accent slowly morphed while she was reading
The circus music sounded like it was from an organ. Maybe the one from strange music, episode 24, that was owned by the grandfather, nicoli I think.
Or from the circus episode.
Yea, transcript says its music from a calliope organ
I love this man! So dense that a hentai protagonist would call him out on it, he’s the chad among chads and I hail him as king.
Sebastian's a legend. Reminds me of that episode in The Office where everyone was trying everything to get Stanley to notice their weird/crazy get ups but Stanley just didn't care enough to notice
Oh my god he's literally me. I'm so unobservant, I once completely missed the fact that a building right near my house that I passed by almost daily for years had been knocked down. I didn't know about it until months after the fact and my dad looked at me like I was crazy when he had to tell me that "Yes, there was a HUGE building there". I couldn't even remember what it looked like because most of the time my eyes just pass over things my brain deems unimportant.
It happens way more often than I'd like to admit. It can be frustrating and embarrassing but also pretty hilarious and usually harmless.
Me:- god this episode was so creepy and scary and the circus music at the end spoiled me hard.
Also Me:- God this episode was so hilarious and it reminded me of the canterville ghost
I have to relisten to this episode because I forgot to pay attention the first time
And honestly that seems fitting
I had to listen three times because I fell asleep to it twice v_V
I genuinely think that the circus music starting to play was the moment I have been most scared listening to this, up with the jumpscare of the not thing getting Sasha. Lmfaoo
This was the funniest episode since the one with the Buried ghost train with the weirded out train Aspect kicking out the lady who was just accepting everything that was happening and not freaking out!
Flensing is the removing of the blubber or outer integument of whales, separating it from the animal's meat.
For anyone curious.
The Stranger/Unknowing arc is by far my favorite part of TMA canon
the way she opened the car door for him 😭😭
Megan: *baffled by this guy ignoring blood and fat and skin*
Sebastian: poor lady. She probably thought that blockage was too gross and felt sick. I get it.
Ok but like my heart dropped when the circus music started playing 😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶
Meghan t-posing
I can't imagine this podcast without its' comment section 🙏🏼I love diving right into it after every episode, to share laughs and insights with the community. Also, it hinted me towards lots of stuff I'd otherwise totally missed!
Thank you guys ❤
Oh. Ohhhh. (Ep 111 spoilers)

Consider: The Entities are our fears. According to Jude Perry, Avatars need to "feed" their fears, i.e. somehow invoke that fear in others. Jude and Megan probably intended for Sebastian to be very scared by horrible things he saw there, and escape with some very frightening stories to spread around, making lots of tasty fear for them. Instead, he came there and _didn't even notice_ the things that were supposed to scare him. Basically, it's like they ordered UberEats and the driver forgot the food. XD
Sebastian deserves five stars on Yelp
"I am literally going to skin you after this,"
Sebastian "Oh yeah, that's cool...
okay then thank you, goodbye :]"
Me when I don't hear
What a legend
'Behold my nightmare factory!'
'Okay. But about those drains though.'
I ship this man with "orange juice on the coffin table" dude ❤
This is canon now!
I wanna read that fanfiction
I need to be refreshed on who that is
@TheAngryMarshmallow the guy in episode 2 that had a coffin delivered to his house and decided to ignore it
She was SO flabbergasted that he never noticed so much she invited a friend
Then FORCED him to look into the room
She really went "bro come on, you are gonna get yourself killed. Here you go werido, so odd"
"When the unknowing begins one of the dancers will be wearing his face." God, it sends me chills. Absolutely amazing podcast that manages to scare me but I can't stop listening :). Although ı think ı need to stop listening before going to the bed.
My dude really got out scot free first time around by flunking all his perception rolls.
I also love the hint of lilting in Gertrude's statement reading.
Gertrude became more and more Welsh as the statement went on.
"You CAN leave it alone!"
Oh Georgie... If you only knew he can't....
Spoiler:
Because Georgie can't feel fear, she really doesn't understand Jon, whose entire personality is shaped by fear.
tbh given the title i thought this would be a tech-based one, maybe more background on that guy who ate his computer? but i'm much more pleased with this, i absolutely loved every second of this episode
Sebastian is the living embodiment of a Skyrim guard.
*has arrow shot through the head...
"Hm, must've been the wind..."
This is my favorite statement because I've always said that if I was in a horror movie the creature or killer would be trying to scare me by doing something ominous and I would just not notice it. Sebastian oblivious king I feel you.
The circus music near the end spooked me worse than the rest of the episode, I was right there with Jon
Sebastion is such a legend tho, sad there won't be more of him it seems
"She seemed a bit taken aback by this, so I apologized, assuming I had been a bit too crude for her, and I asked her where I could find the problem drain."
I listened to this with a friend a while back, while we were both high. Both being asexual, and knowing how it feels to have to rephrase because people think you mean something else, we both decided that the best interpretation of this is that while Sebastion is trying to speak directly and not faff about, Megan took his words to be flirtatious (crudely so, but still). I love the idea of an eldrich abomination trying to scare a dude, and then getting flustered because she thinks he's not just not scared, but genuinely attracted.
No, Megan did not take his words as being flirtatious, that's the wrong interpretation. Just rude and crass.
@@GigaBoost I thought she was shocked he was so chill about the horrific surroundings
@@nightcollapse I mean, yes, she was. The entire episode is about a guy who's too clueless to even notice the spooky shit going on, so that's part of it. That line in particular wasn't "flirtatious", and yeah, she was probably more shocked about how casual he was being about the whole thing.
"Arms spread wide" in that moment I knew this episode was going to be about a bunch of strangers amused for a guy ignoring them
My man Sebastian only operates in baseline reality and has no patience for paranormal mischief
NAHHHH NOT THE CIRCUS MUSIC 💀💀
I was so close to falling asleep and now I'm shivering 😃
As a lass with ADHD, I feel deeply connected to Sebastian
I just imagine Megan calling the invisible flame woman all annoyed after the himbo had left and ruined the night. To witch the fire lady just told em that they'd come over with few beers tomorrow so they could try again
