    Watching the Editor just die from the dad jokes, expose MatPat's mistakes, constantly go off script, and just kinda remind us that there are more people than Matt and Steph behind these videos, is actually really nice. I wanna see this guy more often

      I am a Dew super junkie and the massive amount of caffeine I take in daily don't really effect my immune system to much. I never get sick so to answer your question.........to each his own. Everybody's body is different so it might have or he may have built up a immunity to the large amount of caffeine due to drinking so much for so long and it just diddnt make a different at all in his life.

    Fun facts: Mountain Dew was originally meant as a mixer for liquor (Which is why it’s so sweet and syrupy). The name “Mountain Dew” is an 1800’s slang term for whiskey which is appropriate given Mountain Dew is from Tennessee. Mountain Dew was invented in the 40’s when soda was still sold regionally and thus if you wanted a particular mixer from a different area, you had to make it yourself which is exactly what the makers of Mountain Dew did.
    I know a lot of people already know this but I figured I’d leave this comment anyway for any who don’t.

    You should have Dan narrate every now and again, He does good work especially in the banter department.

    Dan should have his own "So, this is my idea on how dumb/awesome this will be."
    Like, a dad anticipating his son's experiment by hypothesizing it, making comments along the way

    I just met Dan, and I love him. The Mtn Goo monologue with Matt's GooOOOoooOOOoooOOOooo in the background was sheer genius. 13:00 His descent into madness is much appreciated. See you at the bottom Dan.
