    The reveal of the work they'd done earlier was just delightful. I couldn't stop laughing and smiling.

    I love that you're upping the output as Tom takes break, this is a great concept, paired with your infectious enthusiasm.
    I can't wait to see whatever else you try and am interested to know if you inadvertently uncover some unexpekted natural talents.

    Seems like a lot of fun! I never knew they did parts of it essentially freehand like that.

    Writing this comment before watching the vid. Matt, It's just... anything you do upload seems fun, wacky, educational and always worth it. Thank you. Now, off to watch.

    I love the kid in the candy shop feel of these. It's like when fry in futurama gets to try all the things he always wanted to do (except that).

    This is my first time watching Matt Gray is Trying and it is very wonderful. Matt was cheerful and so was the staff, and I really liked how helpful Frankie was.
    The video format did remind me a bit of shows produced on PBS, a (national/public) television channel in the US. I looked at the description and found that the video was in collaboration with Penny4, and while reading the home page of the website, it came a bit of a shock to know that they *also* collaborated with PBS themselves.
    Truly this video was marvelous and I hope this serious continues after the new year.

    There's a lot more that goes into this than I expected. I love the bags being made of the line-marking resin they contain, that's very clever

    What a great video! You’re shedding light on something hardly anyone thinks about. Just goes to show how some really cool things are hidden in plain sight. Now I wanna try this.
