Guys i just realised that Ian in 36 now and they started at 18 years old so he has been on the main channel consistently for half his life and only had one big break of this 2 months. Give this man some respect Edit : This is the first time for me getting 1k plus likes and Plz ignore the idiot in the comments hating on the new cast
He fr kept this thing going. Even when Defy shut down, he’s the reason the channel didn’t go away. He for sure deserves mad respect. Strong ass dude, and even stronger as a duo with Anthony
@@Ryanlexz be fcking fr, you know damn well these "new cast" are not fully in control lmao. it's probably anthony and ian's decision to put them more often in the limelight
This entire podcast branch-off was created so someone would sit next to Ian during lunch. And every episode someone else comes on as a sort of exposure therapy to sitting next to Ian at lunch.
Needed quite honestly she would need it padded cell same with what do I would say younger Shane needed high enjoy how somewhere they can run around and be crazy and not injure themselves
This group of four can not stay on topic for more than 14 seconds, and so many jokes flew under the radar because they are NON STOP. By far the funniest Lunchtime episode to date 😂
This is why I love Smosh as a company and Ian and Anthony as people. Because while this will always be their company, they aren’t pushing themselves to be the center of attention. They’re more focused on showcasing their wonderful team (behind and on camera) and I think it shows just how strong this brand has become. They’ve gone through the wringer as a channel, and now they’re at a really strong point and they absolutely deserve it.
The reality is that Ian and Anthony make the same money if they put in incredible effort or not, but the majority of the cast probably gets paid by the appearance or the writing credit. Having more people in more things spreads around the opportunities and the paydays. SNL has a heavy turnover of cast and writers because people just burn out, you have to elevate the people who have the energy in the tank so they can carry the show forward. Smosh is proving to be a generational channel now, and this generation of talent are coming into their own.
@MykalNines Hmm Idk about the payment thing. Seems like they are present the same amount of time as before. They just dedicate their time differently. Also I doubt the credit does anything in regards to payment. I'm sure they operate the same way many others do, pay by shoot day and not based on what is being done.
@MisaelMatute76 I'm pretty sure writers get paid for writing and actors fet paid for acting. When you do sketches, people write those who often times don't act in them. The games they play aren't scripted so those would be paid by shoot day, but sketch comedy is different
@@MykalNinesThis seems like an extremely limited view of what members of Smosh do each day. Most days are not shoot days, but the employees are still working behind the scenes. I doubt anyone is being paid just for shoot days or just by appearance because they all do multiple jobs within the company. Also, to say that Ian and Anthony would make the same amount of money regardless of how much effort they put in is ridiculous. They aren't just actors, they run a company. The "effort" you see on screen or the number of videos they appear in is a tiny fraction of their job and probably one of the least stressful parts of it. If the owners of the company put in less effort, it would surely impact the company.
@@michaelmcleod6203most of the cast are (or were) freelance and got payed dayrate. Only courtney, shayne and Damien were fulltime for a while. Don't think Damien is anymore but Amanda is. Plus seems like Angela and chanse have become fulltime
Haha, Ian fully associates Twilight with Erin. Erin: "Did you guys know growing up my dream was to be Italian?..." Ian: "Your dream wasn't to be a vampire?"
Honestly, a great bit for a future Bit City. Have Ian and Anthony hyping Angela up for her 'first show' (Deleted footage or something, for the bit) where they're hyping her up before the shoot, then they hit her with the 'Okay the spirit of Smosh and the future of this channel are riding on your shoulders.... Action!' and we just watch her break down on camera.
I’m an avid Smosh watcher and my thoughts on the first Bit City were 100% this has something to it and has that awkward pilot energy. I think the show can grow into its own. As Angela finds her voice as a host and as the show finds its legs it’ll develop a more coherent identity.
It's so cool to hear Ian and Anthony kind of mentor and encourage Angela. You can really tell how masterful they are and their leadership qualities shine through super well. They really are a dynamic pair with how they bounce off of and elevate one another.
Angela is always so great on the Smosh podcasts. She's become known for having goofy moments, but when she is in her element and talking about the arts and performing, she's got excellent insight. I also really appreciated that they were aware of how the first few episodes of Bit City might get received and that they would be actively working to shape the show into something that works for the fans and themselves.
This is definitely Angela’s year. Bit City, Cinderella’s Castle, and Angela featured content! This is awesome. Also, I totally understand wishing to be Italian, Erin. The woman who took care of me as a kid was married to an Italian and I always thought that was so cool and exotic.
13:17 So "Bit City" is like Dropout's "Game Changer". A main place to try out different fun ideas, and if one idea is really fun and gets high ratings, then they can ship it off to be it's own thing. Trying out new ideas where if an idea fails, recovery is not too expensive. Wow, I like that.
My absolute favorite part of Anthony being back It's just watching him and Ian together being happy The best friend dynamic that they had so long faked being genuine is just amazing to see as a Smosh fan
Bit City is like the fully realized form of TNTL: workshopping jokes to see what works. Look at all the characters and long-running jokes that had their start on TNTL
18:30 angela hit the nail on the head for me!! a lot of smosh scripted content doesn’t land for me and with my sense of humor but EVERY single video that has some form of improv is always hilarious!! i think it does have something to do with seeing the real side of you guys and watching you try and do a silly character, vs just seeing a silly character at face value.
3:21 Fun fact: (as someone who took one semester of Italian with a professor actually from Italy), the reason why you might find Italian Americans (2nd gen or further) clip vowels while relatively newly immigrated Italians or Italians that speak the language add vowels to the end is becuase BOTH these things are true. More specifically, in Naples their dialect tends to clip the vowels off the end, which is how you get things like mozzarella -> mozarel, calamari -> galamad, capocolla -> gabagool combined with the American accent/rules of speaking. So what this tends to mean is a wave of people immigrated from that area or an area with a similar dialect and of course established their own communities with specific ways of speaking that is passed from gen to gen.
it's cuz Angela is not Italian, she's a descendant of Italians. Italian Americans think they're so Italian when they're a totally different type of Italians, like African Americans too
Technically, when there's a "gia" in Italian, you're NOT supposed to pronounce the i. So I always thought Angela's last name was pronounced with a JAR in front.
I think Ian's hit the nail on the head at 17:00 there. So much of the fun of watching your favourite online creators, at least for me, is in watching them have fun RIGHT THEN AND THERE. I'm sure it's great fun to make movies and plays etc, but when you perform those, you have to stay professional and to the script. The art and core if improv as a whole is that whatever happens, it's created in that moment. And being able to see that captured on screen is what feels like true magic.
paused at 0:28 and now regret that choice.... but wanted to say I love the random spaces in the studio we never get to see otherwise be the locations for the podcast
1:30 To corroborate this point, when I was studying Russian my teacher (a St. Petersburg native) told us to genuinely just do a stereotypical Russian villain accent when speaking Russian. So there’s some merit to what Ian’s saying!
I mean it’s stereotypical for a reason. Stereotypes tend to be based on some level of truth. Except for pitbulls eating babies, not sure how that one came about.
I have to clarify the murder suicide chicken story. Zankou chicken was a restaurant founded by Vartkes Iskenderian an Armenian Lebanese in the ‘60s, the chain expanded into the US in the ‘80s by his son Mardiros . In 2003 Mardiros who had a colon cancer at the time which had already metastasized into his brain got into a fight with his sister at his mother’s house and then he killed her and killed the mother and subsequently himself. It was thought that the metastasis in his brain was responsible of his erratic behavior. He didn’t kill himself cause he found out he had cancer like Ian said.
I hope you guys bring more funeral roasts to the main channel, even with less budget compared to the Anthony one, considering it will not be behind the paywall. I really like them , watched them multiple times, and would love to see new ones
@@amandabriscoe6578same! I'd love to watch Smosh Under the influence and Under the mistletoe they definitely need a pay per view type page for old Smosh specials.
@@amandabriscoe6578 There might be a way for you to see those. Somewhere within the Archives of the great big Internet. And then support them at the next ticketed event :) That's what I did with Anthony's funeral and then got the ticket for the sitcom
I remember people saying "Angela is like if Ian and Anthony had a kid" when Anthony rejoined and that statement feels especially true in videos like this - their chemistry is always off the charts! Love listening to this fun group chat 🙂↕️
I for one loved Bit City. Been watching smosh since i was a cruton-small carb- and the format was honestly refreshing. Definitely think you should do more, shit was incredibly entertaining.
I always forget Angela actually does a podcast outside of Smosh, that's why she sounds so articulate. It feels like, whereas Starkid and AOAOAOA are Angela's serious jobs, Smosh is her home where she allows herself to be her true self
calling AOAOAOA a serious job is goddamn hilarious. they make a couple hundred bucks a month each from the patreon and are self-described as too niche and alienating to ever get sponsored. the most recent episode had like 15 minutes of fake-out 4th wall breaks and angela played a teenage girl mall employee Joker
Hearing y’all talk about how the Smoshiverse is growing and evolving is so awesome. As a new Smosh fan, when I found your content I stayed and haven’t left. I love watching the old episodes for the sake of canon, but the dynamic across all 3 channels makes me feel like I’m laughing in a room full of friends. Love all of this!!
Actually, in Italy we would pronounce "Giarratana" more like Erin did! And fun fact, Giarratana is also a small village in Sicily (less that 3000 people live there)!
Not Angela earnestly adding to the knot conversation!!! It only encouraged him!! Ian cannot not be derailed from his train of thought and it makes me laugh so hard. Erin is a legend for suggesting velcro.
i need to witness angela and david rossi cooking italian dishes together.. yes i know he’s a fictional character. do i still want this as next episode? yes.
As somebody who eats shrimp pretty occasionally… the fact that 3/4 members of this podcast absolutely refused to eat any and were grossed out makes no sense to me LMFAO what did shrimp do to these people?!
Ngl, growing up in a Chicago Italian family, yes the food was so good at family parties, but there was always that one aunt bringing the shrimp ring for an appetizer and people ATE. IT. UP.
My fav parts of shows like Carol Burnett or Johnny Carson (yes I'm old, hush) was when they would break or ad lib & they were having fun & I feel that you guys have done that w Bit City & TNTL etc. Is a nice break from the crap in the world. We all need to lighten up & laugh together. Liked the whole show, think Courtney's JoJo was my fav. Great job all!!
32:00 can the teleprompter font be changed? Because there is a dyslexic-friendly font that might help you, Angela. 😊 It’s called Dyslexie Font. I have severe ADHD and need to use reading tools too. Can’t wait for the next BitCity!
Hermit crabs require a lot more than people knew back then to thrive and live a long happy life. Like they need access to proper lighting, land they can dig in, and sources of both fresh and salt water.
I'm absolutely loving BitCity so far, seeing the collaboration from the whole cast and crew and the individuality in the "bits" and things is so unique and interesting. All the points you guys made about it I agree with, and it's just so interesting and silly. I definitely feel like apart of an audience/community when I watch it.
I'm loving the creative freedom you all have with Bitcity! There are so many fun jokes, sketches, and bits! I was that 11-year-old kid who watched 'classic Smosh' way back, and watching Bitcity episode 2 about it was hilarious.
Watching this episode makes me feel like I’m literally sitting at a high school lunch table back in 2004 with my friends and laughing so hard that I’m crying! bless bless bless
Yeah, but the Ian/Anthony sketches are classic Smosh... That's what you asked us to pay for... Now you have members who are expecting you to make good on classic-style sketches. Yes! Do the new stuff too, but you've got to keep your promise!
Anthony swallowing his comment about people in the meat industry doing shady murderous things because they are literally paid to kill animals... I see you, I support you, it's not easy out there being the only vegan in the room 😂
y favorite part about these episodes are when they go on a tangent about something in the past and we just get to see them talk about what they love. Has to be on of the most real things to watch!

I also read it as that
Same here lmao
Same
It-Alien
So Angela isn’t the only one who can’t read
angela crying over each cute friendship moment ian and anthony have is so relatable
Ian and Anthony really do be looking like vanilla pudding and chocolate vanilla swirl in this video. Love them!
I don't care what you do with Bit City but please keep the SHUT UP at the beginning. That's the Smosh scream of approval, friends!
"Yeah, most live chickens are raw."
Can't argue against that lol
Based on this room, I want to cut to two doctors looking in the room saying… “They still think the equipment is plugged in” lol
They’re looking at a screen and it’s just Angela sitting on the floor alone
It looks like the outside of one of their stages
The padded walls make it look more like a mental asylum
Ian fr roasted Angela within 2 seconds of the video
You are not alone..I'll leave

fun fact, Ireland is actually known for having very good burgers. They have a lot of cattle farms. The airports probably do not.
This is the best lunchtime episode so far, the chaos, the tiny pasta, the drug rap, the shrimps, the milk. It all tied so well together
Ngl, growing up in a Chicago Italian family, yes the food was so good at family parties, but there was always that one aunt bringing the shrimp ring for an appetizer and people ATE. IT. UP.
We love Ian and Anthony
0:06 SO MEAN ALREADY??
Ian is such a freaking savage lmao
My fav parts of shows like Carol Burnett or Johnny Carson (yes I'm old, hush) was when they would break or ad lib & they were having fun & I feel that you guys have done that w Bit City & TNTL etc. Is a nice break from the crap in the world. We all need to lighten up & laugh together. Liked the whole show, think Courtney's JoJo was my fav. Great job all!!
💯!
Excited for what’s to come, and hopefully there’s still some Ian and Anthony sketches ahead in the future with the rest of the cast
Yay! I needed some Feral Guinea Pig energy right now.
Feeling personally attacked for drinking cold glasses of milk 🤣🤣🤣
32:00 can the teleprompter font be changed? Because there is a dyslexic-friendly font that might help you, Angela. 😊 It’s called Dyslexie Font. I have severe ADHD and need to use reading tools too. Can’t wait for the next BitCity!
Angela!! You and Chanse did so well hosting 💕💕💕
42:24 Erin just randomly saying “My hamster killed itself” KILLED ME
Ian is so goddamn underrated as a comedian. So many good bits. Ian and Anthony got a perfect Abbot and Costello schtick going on
I'm here for my fortnightly ian and anthony content TT
Real
bit city episode 1 was already so funny, imagining what it will look like in episode 20 is really exciting! 🤞🤞🤞
OMG YES THE ANTI DRUG VIDEO!! I’m not joking when I say I frequently remember that video especially Courtney’s makeup for some reason
Someone needs to teach Ian the trick to tie the shoelace bow in one quick motion. It will change his life yet again.
Hermit crabs require a lot more than people knew back then to thrive and live a long happy life. Like they need access to proper lighting, land they can dig in, and sources of both fresh and salt water.

I'm absolutely loving BitCity so far, seeing the collaboration from the whole cast and crew and the individuality in the "bits" and things is so unique and interesting. All the points you guys made about it I agree with, and it's just so interesting and silly. I definitely feel like apart of an audience/community when I watch it.
Over an hour of my favorite kidnapped Italian?? YES.
I'm loving the creative freedom you all have with Bitcity! There are so many fun jokes, sketches, and bits!
I was that 11-year-old kid who watched 'classic Smosh' way back, and watching Bitcity episode 2 about it was hilarious.
i love that ian drinking milk is turning into a bit lol like the milk fanfic
Watching this episode makes me feel like I’m literally sitting at a high school lunch table back in 2004 with my friends and laughing so hard that I’m crying! bless bless bless
Yeah, but the Ian/Anthony sketches are classic Smosh... That's what you asked us to pay for... Now you have members who are expecting you to make good on classic-style sketches.
Yes! Do the new stuff too, but you've got to keep your promise!
i love the energy between these guys i’m cackling at work
Anthony swallowing his comment about people in the meat industry doing shady murderous things because they are literally paid to kill animals... I see you, I support you, it's not easy out there being the only vegan in the room 😂
y favorite part about these episodes are when they go on a tangent about something in the past and we just get to see them talk about what they love. Has to be on of the most real things to watch!
I adore Angela so much.
I love how sidetracked this podcadt gets everytime. Keep it up ❤❤❤
I was kinda hoping Erin would eat the entire tray of shrimp by the end of the episode just to revile everyone else
Thanks for the tip, Ian! I had the issue for years and now finally my shoe laces are properly tied. This ain't even sarcasm, I'm sincere.
i live IN the midwest and I had not squished fireflies, never heard of anyone doing it, and didn't even know that was a thing that could happen 😭
