I still go back to his surprise college graduation party when I need a boost of wholesome energy, you can tell how much everyone at Smosh loves and respects him.
Yeah Shayne along with the other members carried Smosh when Anthony left and are the reason why it’s still so popular. I’m glad Anthony acknowledged that 🥲
Courtney better get an interview next! They're both so crucial to the Smosh image now, and it'd make me so happy seeing them get all the praise they deserve. :)
@@syra1541since some of the other cast members aren't as popular, I could see Anthony doing an episode of "I spent a day with new Smosh cast members" where he interviews like 3 of them in a single video rather than solo interviews.
Shayne’s depth as a human is what made me enjoy Smosh more… I remember them showing up at his apartment one time and seeing how well read he is. As someone else who LOVES reading and thinks it, more than anything else, can develop a person, that was nice to see :) he’s genuine, intelligent, and over the top absurd. Love him!
Shayne, Courtney, and Ian really are what I think kept Smosh together when times got tough. It's so nice to see Shayne getting the praise he deserves for all he's done. I honestly don't know if Smosh would've made it without him.
Shayne is probably the reason why I continued watching smosh. He's surely a big factor in making Smosh survive its darkest hours. He's been a trooper, and has given me countless laughs. Thank you Shayne!
Yeah, I think the pressure of being constantly funny for so many years really deserves prise, he maintains that attitute that makes him so entertaining to watch as well and dedicates a lot of time to Pit, Games and streaming
I don't know if you saw it in the Roasting with Memes video on Smosh, but someone at smosh (can't remember who) made a meme that was "Smosh at 100% power" and it was the whole cast, and then "Smosh at 90% power" and everyone was cropped out except for Shayne. Obviously I think that's a little hyperbolic, but I don't think it's a stretch at all to say that Shayne absolutely carries Smosh on his back, or at least during their darker times. I love the entire cast, but Shayne is undeniably so talented at making memorable characters, and he's just absolutely hilarious. Some of Smosh's most famous bits/characters come from Shayne.
Especially after the Smosh Games crew left. They were the majority of what I watched. Once they were gone I mainly watched for Shayne, Damien and Courtney.
I'm gonna be honest, the only reason i started watching smosh and still watch smosh is because of Shayne. I find him the MOST funny, comforting, relatable and inspiring personality on the internet. LOVE YOU SHAYNE
Same. I didn't really get into Smosh when they were first big on TH-cam. I only gave them a try in their post-Defy era and that's because I kept getting TH-cam shorts recommendations and they were usually videos with Shayne in them
I almost teared up when Anthony at the end says that Shayne has kept the true meaning of Smosh there all along by just having fun with friends on camera. It's so true and that's what makes Smosh so special. Especially the cast now. You can see how close everyone is with each other and from Ian and Anthony to Chance and Angela. (the newest cast members) Everyone just puts a big smile on my face!
I've loved seeing Chanse, Angela, Amanda, and Arasha bond with the older cast. Shayne and Amanda have become SO close, and I think Chanse and Damien really play so well off each other. Angela and Courtney are so much fun to watch together (like today's Reddit stories!) and I love seeing Arasha and Ian play off each other (and I hope we get to see a lot more, they're both so deadpan and I love it). I think Shayne and Damien, Courtney and Olivia, and Keith and Noah kind of started that trend (after Ian and Anthony, of course) of people being besties on Smosh
Shayne is so right about his physicality when it comes to the impressions he does. It’s just as important as sounding like the person. Also, so glad he’s stuck through all of those lows. He truly has been the face of Smosh for a whole new generation of people and that kind of pressure is intense.
Dearest Shayne, I can’t tell you how much it means to everyone that you have stayed on Smosh this entire time. We don’t know what we would ever do without you. You are not only hilarious, but you are genuinely sweet and care sooo much about getting to know each cast and crew member. I see how invested you are in other people. We all love you and please keep doing what you’re doing.
Shayne is just such a pleasant person, he seems so fun and nice to be around. Love seeing Anthony and Shayne together again. The "We Bought Smosh" arc really is the best timeline.
Anyone that has kept up with smosh after anthony left knows how critical and talented Shayne is. He’s remained imo one of the funniest people on all of TH-cam while remaining a humble and nice guy.
I remember back in middle school I stopped watching Smosh before Anthony left but I’d watch The Goldbergs around the same time and it was weird as fuck to see Shayne in it, but I really enjoyed him in both those things. He’s a really charismatic actor
@@doctorslept it always surprises me how level headed and reasonable he is despite growing up being a child actor, you usually expect a level of disconnect from reality when you grow up in that industry but he's always very aware of that and does his best to educate himself
Man, at the beginning, when Anthony started listing all the eras Shayne went through, I got so sad. These people carried Smosh through it's darkest times but they were so underappreciated because people were blinded with nostalgia of old Smosh. Shayne, Courtney, Damien etc. truly are the unsung heroes of Smosh.
Damien! People are slowly forgetting how awesome he his. His humour is right up my alley, sometimes the others don't really catch on to it, but I wish he had his own series where we could hear his opinions and more of him talking. He's a proper gem.
It's beautiful also they made their places in Smosh Courtney on Smosh main for the funerals Damien on Smosh Games for the DND and some board af Shayne on Smosh Pit and Smosh Cast with challenges, reddit stories, and podcasting Love this trio, part of the old group
Watching Anthony absolutely lose it during Shayne's Tom Cruise impersonation was insanely hilarious. You can tell that Anthony legitimately loves Shayne, it's so wholesome!
I’ve watched smosh for over 12 years now and I say with full confidence that smosh would not be the same without Shayne. Shayne leaving would hurt like it did when Anthony left. He has become such a big part in making smosh what it is today. He deserves all the praise
I agree that if Shayne left, it would be on par with Anthony leaving. Especially if you compare the audience's attachment to them. I can say, for me personally, I am much more attached to Shayne now than I was to Anthony back then, but I didn't watch Smosh that much leading up to that. But others did. And realistically, Anthony being part of the duo certainly had more of a potent impact. Shayne and Courtney feel like the consistent two of the cast over the last 6 years. We saw them way more than Ian. So, if either of them left, I'd be pretty upset.
Thank you for bringing Shayne to the show. He is such a funny person to me. Smosh in general has my heart to make my day better or even better and Shayne adds that spark to it. His laugh, his characters. His own self is so amazing! Love you Shayne!
Shayne seriously rules, him being popular enough to have his own thing going, but just not doing it because being around the others is just too fun... is so genuine and heartwarming. Jeez. Im floored. Massive talent and heart. Courtney and him kept the dream alive, now Amanda and Angela are also just such fun stand-outs. This era is peak.
I think I prefer current Smosh to the nostalgia Smosh era from my childhood. Which is very very high praise. I feel like they have really mastered their formula
I’m glad that Shayne is getting some flowers. He’s clearly a comedy powerhouse, and very hardworking and loyal, but he also just seems like a genuinely kind person. I’m sure success will find him whatever he gets up to, but I’m glad it’s Smosh right now :)
I love this era of smosh. Smosh has been pretty transparent and communicative towards fans and seeing all the ups and downs of the company makes this moment much more sweeter. We're now honoring Smosh for everything they've done. and seeing how they've become a giant family warms my heart. What a time to be alive.
Ian and Anthony are the parents of Main but Pit and Games are Shayne’s babies. He really carried those channels for so long, my respect for him grew so much during the pandemic. Woo Shayne, Shayne it up!
I don’t think Shayne realizes how important he has been to the fabric of Smosh. I started watching Smosh about two months before Anthony left, so I only really know “post-Anthony” Smosh. Shayne has easily become one of the most important members of Smosh, and seeing him in videos makes it go to another level. It’s so great to see him get to talk about his experiences as though he is a valued member, and it’s been so great to see how involved he has been on and off camera.
shayne was the first person i gravitated towards when i went back to smosh after anthony left, and it's been so cool to watch him grow into a pillar of smosh. he's such an incredible performer, love seeing what he does now & excited to see what he does as his career continues!
I wasn't aware of Smosh back in the day (something about not wanting to do popular stuff as a teenager 😂). Shayne was the reason I got into Smosh last year. His charisma just pulled me in.
I don’t know if Shayne was holding back tears but when he was speaking it really made me cry. Like… I remember that scene of the office when Jim says that the documentary people gave them the blessing of being able to actually look back into their lives. And we can see all that with Shayne, Anthony, and the rest of the Smosh crew. They’re all incredible people and it’s awesome to see how far they have all grown.
I love that if Shayne hadn't stayed with acting, he would've wanted to be a therapist. He definitely gives off those vibes in those reddit stories - so good at navigating people's conflicts, while also being light hearted and humorous. I'm a relatively new smosh fan and WOW do I love Shayne and the whole cast. I feel so lucky to have discovered this just as Anthony was coming back, and it's so heartwarming to see how much people appreciate him there. Excited for the live tonight, and all the new content!!
Shayne is honestly such a smart, fun and caring guy. Honestly, hes my favourite person on Smosh, both for just him as a human being and all the characters he does.
I respect everything that Shane has done (as he is my favorite cast member), he is a multi talented individual that has brought so much to Smosh & has helped kept it alive alongside Courtney & Ian. Not trying to discredit the other team members who have helped with keeping the channel alive of course but I feel like having those 3 people at the forefront and all the sacrifices they made have paid off in a big way.
So, on my way into where I volunteer/where my mom works, we read/listen to AITA stories. We recently found the Smosh AITA stories that Shayne reads and we LOVE him!!!! Oh my goodness!!! It makes us so happy that Shayne is as wonderful as he is. I’m glad there are people with such high moral standards in the media. You know? ❤️
Smosh is filled with some of the ones the wonderful people who have ever lived makes you want to meet them in real life it’s sad that around the rest of the world and especially in this country that there is not more people like them
i think anthony articulated it perfectly, beyond ‘old smosh’ and ‘new smosh’ there’s really just one core part of the brand that keeps it afloat and so entertaining which is the magic of them just wanting to make their friend(s) laugh. shayne truly has been a key player in keeping that alive, you can tell it’s truly a company built on mutual respect, adoration, and family
The many times that I’ve desperately needed a laugh during hard times, I would go to any video with Shayne and Courtney. Their characters and humor really helped me out when I needed it and I cannot say enough about how much i appreciate them.
absaloutely, I think it's really lovely how Smosh has evolved to embrace such a wide variety of fantastic personalities, it's the channel's greatest strength
Shayne is the one entertainer I personally always gravitate toward. I think he was born for this job, and I truly believe Smosh wouldn't be the same without him. I could listen to him do impressions, make up characters, or laugh at himself for hours. And on top of being immensely funny and able to make a whole room laugh so naturally, you can see he is just a very intelligent and sensible person. In Reddit stories and whenever he talks about his personal experiences on podcasts or other occasions, you can see he expresses himself very well and is a very kind person. I would watch anything this guy does, truly. So much talent!! ❤️ Keep doing what you're doing, Shayne! 🙌
Hearing Anthony give Shayne his flowers about his contribution to Smosh made me so emotional. He has done so much for Smosh and it's viewers, and it's so good to hear him be recognized for it.
I am SO happy that Shayne is getting some love in Anthony's channel! He has always been my favorite cast member and it's so awesome hearing Anthony acknowledge what he has done for Smosh
Shayne is so incredibly talented and funny! His laugh is the best. Love when he is directing TNTL and you can hear him laugh in the background. I hope his career continues to grow and build up from here
The level of talent on Smosh across the board is top notch, and Shayne certainly leads that charge. SO talented and naturally funny, and on top of that, you can tell he puts a ton of work and effort into his job...well done Shayne
Shayne getting an episode like this was unexpected but i love it so much, he’s done a lot for Smosh over the years and im glad he’s getting the love he definitely deserves
I love Smosh so dearly, each and every one of them, but when Shayne isn't in a video or smth you just notice and he just brings something to every video I need
Ian and Anthony have always been wonderful at finding talented people, and Shayne is definitely one of them. Shayne is so talented, kind, funny, and genuinely a wonderful person. I’m so glad he’s stuck with Smosh and to see him grow over the past 8 years has been amazing
THIS WAS SO WHOLESOME. I LOVE THEM BOTH. This conversation, I didn't know i "needed" this. I am always impressed by how well Shayne articulates his answers.
Shayne is such a big, impactful reason of why I kept watching Smosh over the years that Anthony left. I’ve been watching Smosh since the early Ian and Anthony days, and the transition to different phases of the brand has been more seamless with Shayne on board. Thanks for the interview Anthony, and to Shayne for accepting! He does a great job with characters but it’s always nice to see the IRL version of him. Must be why his Reddit story series is such a refreshing part of the channel! Good luck tonight with the roasts, you guys will kill it!!
It makes sense re: enjoying when people love your characters. Its your art, sharing your art with people feels SO VULNERABLE, and it's wonderful when they respond positively.
Yeah, I relate to that with my programming and my writing. When I code up a game that people like, or when I write a poem or story people give positive feedback on, it means so much more to me than if people just tell me they like me. Because it's like, everyone has someone who likes them, but this is *something I made* and there's no guarantee it's any good. To find out it is, and that the thing you made brought joy to someone else, is an amazing feeling.
being able to watch shayne grow into the man he is today is just wild. the most humble, down to earth and absolutely fucking hilarious person. i love that he studied psychology and mentions wanting to be a therapist. we need more people that care about people in media. glad hes getting the recognition he deserves! 🥳
The Smosh cast is such a great cast. I was a Smosh fan before them, but they have become some of my favorite internet personalities. Especially Shayne.
For those who haven't noticed, the extra gravy that makes Shayne's Tom Cruise impression seem so uncanny is that he shares Cruise's centre front tooth. Love Shayne. I really think he's one of my favourite entertainers on this platform. I'd like to think he'd make a good friend.
hearing shayne talk about how much he loves when people enjoy his characters, i'm so happy he's really been able to flex this with Sword AF and Betrayal: Legacy!! i hope we get a lot more of those types of videos bc they're so enjoyable
It's really amazing that Anthony did this interview. Shayne has been the face of Smosh since Anthony left. It's awesome to see Anthony recognize and appreciate his efforts while he was gone to now.
30 videos a week is insane. the fact that almost no one comments on how tired he looks or seems on all those videos is a miracle considering all of that! im proud of shayne for slowly improving on setting boundaries and caring for himself. i also didnt know he moved to LA when he was only 16!! the fact that he is such a well rounded, grounded human being is amazing and i hope over time he comes to believe in himself more 💛 also creating such memorable, quotable characters is a skill that not many have. the fact that shayne has so many is a testament to the talent he has and the hard work he puts in
I was waiting for this episode, Shayne is such a charismatic guy but seems very down to Earth and is an important part of Smosh surviving through the hard times.
Shayne has always been a favorite of mine at Smosh for his meta humor. He is thinks outside of the box of traditional comedy, has several amazing returning bits, and is one of six internet Chads that actually give the term a good name.
So, I never watched Smosh, but I knew the name growing up with TH-cam - I only tried watching it when Anthony did the whole announcement and stuff, and one thing stuck, Shayne Topps personality on the Reddit stories haha! I love his warm personality and how he doesn't judge before he gets a full picture, and the jokes, all the jokes, it has become a weekly routine to watch that with my other favourite shows - so nice to get to see him here and get to know some of his story :D
The one thing that I love most about you Anthony is your emotional intelligence or empathy. Your way of communication and way of feeling through every emotion within the room resonates with me and I'm glad that over the last 10 years of watching Smosh, this is the person you've become whom I've witnessed. I already commented about Shayne on this video and he's amazing in so many different ways but I just felt like this characteristic of yours is not appreciated nearly enough so I wanted to tell you in case you read this. Proud of you guys man. It almost feels like we grew up together; as if I was the kid at your neighbour's who witnessed you from afar. Again, so proud of you.
Shayne is the reason I started watching Smosh. I have since fallen in love with the whole cast. Angela is a character I can barely believe is real, she’s so great. But Shayne really is the Aragorn to Ian’s Gandalf really. Saying he is the backbone is not an overstatement.
Shayne is now such a big part of smosh for me, he's been one of my favourites for forever and I really appreciate his work! he's such a big part of smosh for me now that he's also synonymous with the brand at this point and I wish him all the best!!
It's so funny to hear Anthony talk about dealing with the EXACT same backlash (to a smaller degree) when he came back that Shayne did when he came on. Just goes to show that you really have to ignore the outrage and just do the work. If the work is good, the results will speak for themselves. Smosh has been through such a wild ride that never needed to be as rough as it was, but it's amazing to see that the company is probably stronger now than it's ever been.
Shayne, in my opinion, has become one of the faces of smosh and I love that for him ❤ he seems like such a genuinely sweet person and I'm so happy he's still with smosh and doing something he loves. Plus, I love storytime with Daddy Shayne.
Shayne definitely has and is my favorite smosh member. Him and Spencer especially have really helped me during the the time in my life where the verbal and physical abuse from my father got progressively more violent and frequent. Thanks man, hopefully you see this. Welcome back Anthony. You being back brings back the good memories I had with my brother before he unfortunately abandoned us and he lost himself in his own depression and addiction. Sap story is over. If you read this, thanks I guess?
It’s such a heartwarming feeling to watch someone you’ve watched for so long become very vulnerable and express what they went through. This is such a great video 🤧
Love that Shayne is getting the recognition he deserves!! Together with some of the other Smosh members, he really held Smosh together and knew how to make giggles for the viewers! Thank you! ❤
The bottom line is that BOTH of y’all are so funny…cuz you’re both so smart!! And have so much empathy - from your characters (cuz even Anthony in sketches is a character) to your fellow castmates!! ❤ love this
Shane is just so incredible, this man is just so special and I can hardly even find words to describe how much I understand what he says. We all love Shane and are so proud of EVERYTHING he has done. Meeting him is a dream for him and it will happen one day.
I grew up on old and new Smosh and it continues to be my favorite thing to watch. It's impossible to calculate how much joy and laughter y'all have brought into my life, and how much it's helped me get through hard times. So thank you, really, from the bottom of my heart for all that you do
When Anthony did leave Smosh I was heartbroken but what kept me going back to watch Smosh and their other channels was the new Smosh crew and Shayne really cemented himself into working hard and making me continue to laugh every week. He’s so intelligent and a vibrant person and it’s so nice he is getting that recognition too ❤
Shayne and Damien really are the nicest and best at Smosh, they’re the glue and I freaking love Shayne and how he was able to be open and vulnerable with Ian and it’s great to have Ian back because I think they can go even further with the brand like Apps and maybe a better movie or maybe a gag book. I just loved this video, I felt the love and wholesomeness from their talk.
From my heart, watching Shayne being goofy and having fun with his friends has helped me through some tough times in my life. To this day I'll rewatch particular videos that had me rolling on the floor, and I find the same amount of joy in them, no matter if it's the 100th time I'm watching it. And I love the creative freedom on Pit, allowing all the talents to be their authentic selves. Thank you to all members of smosh, you are the most genuine and kind people on all of TH-cam ❤
I felt shayne was one of the reasons I still watched smosh when I wasn't sure how smosh would be. His constant appearance was a nice familiar face and I was more accepting of many different changes and concepts experimented in smosh.
Been waiting for this the whole week! I Spent A Day With Series is awesome, but having Smosh people here just TOPPs it off - from Ian to Shayne, nice one Anthony. I'm glad we found you again. 😂❤
It was really heartwarming seeing Shayne and Anthony watching the Tom Cruise sketch. That's easily one of my favorite sketches from that era, and it was awesome seeing Shayne watching that again after so long, and especially Anthony as well having a great time watching it now, knowing how stuff in Smosh was behind the scenes back then
I'm so happy anthony is back but he's still doing this channel. I was a fan when they were together, I was a fan while they were apart. His creativity and rapport with Ian and the connection with the current cast is so genuine and positive. I love seeing these informational and interesting topics but having him back together with his childhood friend is so happy

Yeah, I think the pressure of being constantly funny for so many years really deserves prise, he maintains that attitute that makes him so entertaining to watch as well and dedicates a lot of time to Pit, Games and streaming
I don't know if you saw it in the Roasting with Memes video on Smosh, but someone at smosh (can't remember who) made a meme that was "Smosh at 100% power" and it was the whole cast, and then "Smosh at 90% power" and everyone was cropped out except for Shayne.

I'm gonna be honest, the only reason i started watching smosh and still watch smosh is because of Shayne. I find him the MOST funny, comforting, relatable and inspiring personality on the internet. LOVE YOU SHAYNE

Same. I didn't really get into Smosh when they were first big on TH-cam. I only gave them a try in their post-Defy era and that's because I kept getting TH-cam shorts recommendations and they were usually videos with Shayne in them
Got into Smosh way late and primarily cause of Shayne.
Same. I’ve never been drawn to a performer the way I am to him
The way Shayne describes the pride he feels in creating a beloved character is how I know he has the brain of an artist

Same, he's so fab
thug shake (10 hours)
Me with Anthony
literally, that series he has of him just guessing shit is genuinely my favorite lmfao
Anyone that has kept up with smosh after anthony left knows how critical and talented Shayne is. He’s remained imo one of the funniest people on all of TH-cam while remaining a humble and nice guy.
I remember back in middle school I stopped watching Smosh before Anthony left but I’d watch The Goldbergs around the same time and it was weird as fuck to see Shayne in it, but I really enjoyed him in both those things. He’s a really charismatic actor
Easily
@@doctorslept it always surprises me how level headed and reasonable he is despite growing up being a child actor, you usually expect a level of disconnect from reality when you grow up in that industry but he's always very aware of that and does his best to educate himself
He is the one who carried Smosh all by himself
@@hartantoanggoroUhhh... Ian
Man, at the beginning, when Anthony started listing all the eras Shayne went through, I got so sad. These people carried Smosh through it's darkest times but they were so underappreciated because people were blinded with nostalgia of old Smosh. Shayne, Courtney, Damien etc. truly are the unsung heroes of Smosh.
Damien! People are slowly forgetting how awesome he his. His humour is right up my alley, sometimes the others don't really catch on to it, but I wish he had his own series where we could hear his opinions and more of him talking. He's a proper gem.
It's beautiful also they made their places in Smosh
Courtney on Smosh main for the funerals
Damien on Smosh Games for the DND and some board af
Shayne on Smosh Pit and Smosh Cast with challenges, reddit stories, and podcasting
Love this trio, part of the old group
@@jeffhappens1 don't forget who memed it
Truly the stars. The Cast is the gold, Ian and Anthony just mined it
100% they are the heart of Smosh
No one flat out says it, but Shayne and Courtney ARE and have been the face of smosh since Anthony left
Who's Courtney?
@@lyssix6203
The blonde woman. They even show her in this interview and talk about her extensively. Did you comment before watching?
courtney is not funny.
Neither are Ian and Anthony @@prn_97_
@@prn_97_ exactly, she's hilarious
Shayne singing Gyatt for the Rizzler is everything
as the caption writer, thank you for helping me figure out what to look for 😅 I thought my brain was melting
Watching Anthony absolutely lose it during Shayne's Tom Cruise impersonation was insanely hilarious. You can tell that Anthony legitimately loves Shayne, it's so wholesome!
The combination of laughter and amazement at how spot on it was, I love how much they get along
We all love Shayne!
Incredible how on point the mannerisms were, he is truly an amazing character actor
I’ve watched smosh for over 12 years now and I say with full confidence that smosh would not be the same without Shayne. Shayne leaving would hurt like it did when Anthony left. He has become such a big part in making smosh what it is today. He deserves all the praise
I mean. more comments gets this comment higher but, what a wacky bot to make
@ville__baffled at how this bot hasnt been banned
I agree that if Shayne left, it would be on par with Anthony leaving. Especially if you compare the audience's attachment to them.
I can say, for me personally, I am much more attached to Shayne now than I was to Anthony back then, but I didn't watch Smosh that much leading up to that. But others did. And realistically, Anthony being part of the duo certainly had more of a potent impact.
Shayne and Courtney feel like the consistent two of the cast over the last 6 years. We saw them way more than Ian. So, if either of them left, I'd be pretty upset.
Thank you for bringing Shayne to the show. He is such a funny person to me. Smosh in general has my heart to make my day better or even better and Shayne adds that spark to it. His laugh, his characters. His own self is so amazing! Love you Shayne!
If you want more of shayne basically being him self I suggest the smosh cast/smosh mouth
@@headsplitwideopen9988 Thanks but I know that :) Ive been watching Smosh since 2012 so I've been there with pretty much everything they posted teeehe
Agreed !
Shayne seriously rules, him being popular enough to have his own thing going, but just not doing it because being around the others is just too fun... is so genuine and heartwarming. Jeez. Im floored. Massive talent and heart. Courtney and him kept the dream alive, now Amanda and Angela are also just such fun stand-outs. This era is peak.
I think I prefer current Smosh to the nostalgia Smosh era from my childhood. Which is very very high praise. I feel like they have really mastered their formula
I’m glad that Shayne is getting some flowers. He’s clearly a comedy powerhouse, and very hardworking and loyal, but he also just seems like a genuinely kind person. I’m sure success will find him whatever he gets up to, but I’m glad it’s Smosh right now :)
I love this era of smosh. Smosh has been pretty transparent and communicative towards fans and seeing all the ups and downs of the company makes this moment much more sweeter. We're now honoring Smosh for everything they've done. and seeing how they've become a giant family warms my heart. What a time to be alive.
Ian and Anthony are the parents of Main but Pit and Games are Shayne’s babies. He really carried those channels for so long, my respect for him grew so much during the pandemic. Woo Shayne, Shayne it up!
I don’t think Shayne realizes how important he has been to the fabric of Smosh. I started watching Smosh about two months before Anthony left, so I only really know “post-Anthony” Smosh. Shayne has easily become one of the most important members of Smosh, and seeing him in videos makes it go to another level. It’s so great to see him get to talk about his experiences as though he is a valued member, and it’s been so great to see how involved he has been on and off camera.
shayne was the first person i gravitated towards when i went back to smosh after anthony left, and it's been so cool to watch him grow into a pillar of smosh. he's such an incredible performer, love seeing what he does now & excited to see what he does as his career continues!
I wasn't aware of Smosh back in the day (something about not wanting to do popular stuff as a teenager 😂). Shayne was the reason I got into Smosh last year. His charisma just pulled me in.
I don’t know if Shayne was holding back tears but when he was speaking it really made me cry. Like… I remember that scene of the office when Jim says that the documentary people gave them the blessing of being able to actually look back into their lives. And we can see all that with Shayne, Anthony, and the rest of the Smosh crew. They’re all incredible people and it’s awesome to see how far they have all grown.
Love that on The Office!
WE'RE GETTING FED TODAY! 😭❤️ Shayne interview AND Anthony roast in one day ?! I can die happy now.
AND a flashback w/ smosh
It's a pretty smurfy day to be a fan.
So can Anthony 😅
@@muliebris6338Yess!! Can't forget that!
Smosh games posted a video also!
I love that if Shayne hadn't stayed with acting, he would've wanted to be a therapist. He definitely gives off those vibes in those reddit stories - so good at navigating people's conflicts, while also being light hearted and humorous. I'm a relatively new smosh fan and WOW do I love Shayne and the whole cast. I feel so lucky to have discovered this just as Anthony was coming back, and it's so heartwarming to see how much people appreciate him there. Excited for the live tonight, and all the new content!!
he has a psychology degree
It's all for Damien -Fan fiction
@ville__what content has he stolen from you?
Welcome to the community!
@@emils.gulbrandsen1574 none, its a bot.
Shayne is honestly such a smart, fun and caring guy. Honestly, hes my favourite person on Smosh, both for just him as a human being and all the characters he does.
YOO the fact that Shayne’s first shoot with Smosh involved him showering with Ian is WILD MAN
I respect everything that Shane has done (as he is my favorite cast member), he is a multi talented individual that has brought so much to Smosh & has helped kept it alive alongside Courtney & Ian.
Not trying to discredit the other team members who have helped with keeping the channel alive of course but I feel like having those 3 people at the forefront and all the sacrifices they made have paid off in a big way.
So, on my way into where I volunteer/where my mom works, we read/listen to AITA stories. We recently found the Smosh AITA stories that Shayne reads and we LOVE him!!!! Oh my goodness!!! It makes us so happy that Shayne is as wonderful as he is. I’m glad there are people with such high moral standards in the media. You know? ❤️
He's like a golden retriever made man and hilarious.
Smosh is filled with some of the ones the wonderful people who have ever lived makes you want to meet them in real life it’s sad that around the rest of the world and especially in this country that there is not more people like them
absolutely
AITA with Shane reading is absolutely my favorite side show that they do. I love it. I wish they ‘d do more. I think I’ve seen them all.
i think anthony articulated it perfectly, beyond ‘old smosh’ and ‘new smosh’ there’s really just one core part of the brand that keeps it afloat and so entertaining which is the magic of them just wanting to make their friend(s) laugh. shayne truly has been a key player in keeping that alive, you can tell it’s truly a company built on mutual respect, adoration, and family
The many times that I’ve desperately needed a laugh during hard times, I would go to any video with Shayne and Courtney. Their characters and humor really helped me out when I needed it and I cannot say enough about how much i appreciate them.
Those two are great together.
yesss the SmoshMouth podcast w Shayne and Amanda has helped me a lot personally
shayne and angela in particular have been serotonin boosters for me though they're all fantastic
shayne puts it perfectly at 6:50, he doesn’t do impressions but he *emulates* the people he’s impersonating so well
Mannerisms
6:05 Anthony preemptively laughing before Shayne even started the impression is everything for me😭😭
It's Anthony's applauses that always got me. 😂
If Anthony and Ian are the kings of Smosh. Shayne and Courtney are the pillars that have held it up.
absaloutely, I think it's really lovely how Smosh has evolved to embrace such a wide variety of fantastic personalities, it's the channel's greatest strength
I agree that they are more than likely the most favorite female/male members of the cast but I'd argue that the entire cast/crew are the real pillars.
This one needs a second part, the chemistry between Shayne and Anthony is so great, really wish they could share more in Smosh
We need a part 2 just to hear more of Shayne’s story tbh
Shayne is the one entertainer I personally always gravitate toward. I think he was born for this job, and I truly believe Smosh wouldn't be the same without him. I could listen to him do impressions, make up characters, or laugh at himself for hours. And on top of being immensely funny and able to make a whole room laugh so naturally, you can see he is just a very intelligent and sensible person. In Reddit stories and whenever he talks about his personal experiences on podcasts or other occasions, you can see he expresses himself very well and is a very kind person.
I would watch anything this guy does, truly. So much talent!! ❤️
Keep doing what you're doing, Shayne! 🙌
After finding out Spencer has been at smoth for 10 years I kinda want to see an interview of him next.
Hearing Anthony give Shayne his flowers about his contribution to Smosh made me so emotional. He has done so much for Smosh and it's viewers, and it's so good to hear him be recognized for it.
Him being so kind and humble and sweet and hardworking and mad funny while having an imposter syndrome ... deserves the world honestly
Shayne along with the other cast members have helped me through some tough times the past few years. And for that I'm very thankful. ❤
Fuck its amazing how open and vulnerable Shane is. Love this dude so much.
I am SO happy that Shayne is getting some love in Anthony's channel! He has always been my favorite cast member and it's so awesome hearing Anthony acknowledge what he has done for Smosh
The Chosen and Courtney Freaking Miller are two absolutely amazing characters, and I get so excited every time I see them on screen ❤
Shayne is so incredibly talented and funny! His laugh is the best. Love when he is directing TNTL and you can hear him laugh in the background. I hope his career continues to grow and build up from here
You can tell how genuinely happy Shayne is for Anthony to be back
The level of talent on Smosh across the board is top notch, and Shayne certainly leads that charge. SO talented and naturally funny, and on top of that, you can tell he puts a ton of work and effort into his job...well done Shayne
Shayne getting an episode like this was unexpected but i love it so much, he’s done a lot for Smosh over the years and im glad he’s getting the love he definitely deserves
I love Smosh so dearly, each and every one of them, but when Shayne isn't in a video or smth you just notice and he just brings something to every video I need
Can't believe Anthony got to interview Matt Bradley from "The Goldbergs". Absolutely amazing!
Ian and Anthony have always been wonderful at finding talented people, and Shayne is definitely one of them. Shayne is so talented, kind, funny, and genuinely a wonderful person. I’m so glad he’s stuck with Smosh and to see him grow over the past 8 years has been amazing
Shayne Topp is a gem. He always makes me laugh and I appreciate his level-headed approach
THIS WAS SO WHOLESOME. I LOVE THEM BOTH. This conversation, I didn't know i "needed" this. I am always impressed by how well Shayne articulates his answers.
I gotta say that 'Tom Cruise is my roommate' is still one of my all time favorite Smosh videos, largely thanks to Shayne's performance!
Man, I freaking love Shayne. He's so wholesome and extremely talented.
Shayne is such a big, impactful reason of why I kept watching Smosh over the years that Anthony left. I’ve been watching Smosh since the early Ian and Anthony days, and the transition to different phases of the brand has been more seamless with Shayne on board.
Thanks for the interview Anthony, and to Shayne for accepting! He does a great job with characters but it’s always nice to see the IRL version of him. Must be why his Reddit story series is such a refreshing part of the channel!
Good luck tonight with the roasts, you guys will kill it!!
Major little brother energy from Shayne in this and I'm here for it
Shayne is one of my main role models in life. Everything I’ve heard him talk about is just so insightful. What a gem that man is to humankind!
Welp
Anthony better bring Shayne and Courtney again after the recent event
Although he knew already
Video 3 of Smosh related content for the day 🎉 so ready for tonight!
i’ve seen u on every one!! smosh fans eating today
@@BetamonI will choose to not be embarrassed at being perceived 😂
Yesss! Just watched some of the Smosh games video!
Dude, today is literally the best day ever
I’m so fucking pumped 4 the live show
It makes sense re: enjoying when people love your characters. Its your art, sharing your art with people feels SO VULNERABLE, and it's wonderful when they respond positively.
Yeah, I relate to that with my programming and my writing. When I code up a game that people like, or when I write a poem or story people give positive feedback on, it means so much more to me than if people just tell me they like me. Because it's like, everyone has someone who likes them, but this is *something I made* and there's no guarantee it's any good. To find out it is, and that the thing you made brought joy to someone else, is an amazing feeling.
being able to watch shayne grow into the man he is today is just wild. the most humble, down to earth and absolutely fucking hilarious person. i love that he studied psychology and mentions wanting to be a therapist. we need more people that care about people in media. glad hes getting the recognition he deserves! 🥳
The Smosh cast is such a great cast. I was a Smosh fan before them, but they have become some of my favorite internet personalities. Especially Shayne.
For those who haven't noticed, the extra gravy that makes Shayne's Tom Cruise impression seem so uncanny is that he shares Cruise's centre front tooth.
Love Shayne. I really think he's one of my favourite entertainers on this platform. I'd like to think he'd make a good friend.
hearing shayne talk about how much he loves when people enjoy his characters, i'm so happy he's really been able to flex this with Sword AF and Betrayal: Legacy!! i hope we get a lot more of those types of videos bc they're so enjoyable
Shayne has so much contribution to shaping Smosh into what it has become today, it's amazing. But truly beyond Smosh also, he's amazing!
It's really amazing that Anthony did this interview. Shayne has been the face of Smosh since Anthony left. It's awesome to see Anthony recognize and appreciate his efforts while he was gone to now.
30 videos a week is insane. the fact that almost no one comments on how tired he looks or seems on all those videos is a miracle considering all of that! im proud of shayne for slowly improving on setting boundaries and caring for himself. i also didnt know he moved to LA when he was only 16!! the fact that he is such a well rounded, grounded human being is amazing and i hope over time he comes to believe in himself more 💛 also creating such memorable, quotable characters is a skill that not many have. the fact that shayne has so many is a testament to the talent he has and the hard work he puts in
We need to have an interview with Mari Takahashi!
I was waiting for this episode, Shayne is such a charismatic guy but seems very down to Earth and is an important part of Smosh surviving through the hard times.
Shayne has always been a favorite of mine at Smosh for his meta humor. He is thinks outside of the box of traditional comedy, has several amazing returning bits, and is one of six internet Chads that actually give the term a good name.
So, I never watched Smosh, but I knew the name growing up with TH-cam - I only tried watching it when Anthony did the whole announcement and stuff, and one thing stuck, Shayne Topps personality on the Reddit stories haha! I love his warm personality and how he doesn't judge before he gets a full picture, and the jokes, all the jokes, it has become a weekly routine to watch that with my other favourite shows - so nice to get to see him here and get to know some of his story :D
The one thing that I love most about you Anthony is your emotional intelligence or empathy. Your way of communication and way of feeling through every emotion within the room resonates with me and I'm glad that over the last 10 years of watching Smosh, this is the person you've become whom I've witnessed. I already commented about Shayne on this video and he's amazing in so many different ways but I just felt like this characteristic of yours is not appreciated nearly enough so I wanted to tell you in case you read this. Proud of you guys man. It almost feels like we grew up together; as if I was the kid at your neighbour's who witnessed you from afar. Again, so proud of you.
*13 years
Shayne is the reason I started watching Smosh. I have since fallen in love with the whole cast. Angela is a character I can barely believe is real, she’s so great. But Shayne really is the Aragorn to Ian’s Gandalf really. Saying he is the backbone is not an overstatement.
Shayne is now such a big part of smosh for me, he's been one of my favourites for forever and I really appreciate his work! he's such a big part of smosh for me now that he's also synonymous with the brand at this point and I wish him all the best!!
It's so funny to hear Anthony talk about dealing with the EXACT same backlash (to a smaller degree) when he came back that Shayne did when he came on. Just goes to show that you really have to ignore the outrage and just do the work. If the work is good, the results will speak for themselves.
Smosh has been through such a wild ride that never needed to be as rough as it was, but it's amazing to see that the company is probably stronger now than it's ever been.
Shayne, in my opinion, has become one of the faces of smosh and I love that for him ❤ he seems like such a genuinely sweet person and I'm so happy he's still with smosh and doing something he loves. Plus, I love storytime with Daddy Shayne.
This brings so much joy to my heart seeing shayne get the recognition he deserves. So much respect for ALL of the cast on smosh.
Shayne definitely has and is my favorite smosh member. Him and Spencer especially have really helped me during the the time in my life where the verbal and physical abuse from my father got progressively more violent and frequent. Thanks man, hopefully you see this. Welcome back Anthony. You being back brings back the good memories I had with my brother before he unfortunately abandoned us and he lost himself in his own depression and addiction. Sap story is over. If you read this, thanks I guess?
As a huge fan of Shayne since 2015, I can’t express how much this video means to me.
It’s such a heartwarming feeling to watch someone you’ve watched for so long become very vulnerable and express what they went through. This is such a great video 🤧
Love that Shayne is getting the recognition he deserves!! Together with some of the other Smosh members, he really held Smosh together and knew how to make giggles for the viewers! Thank you! ❤
The bottom line is that BOTH of y’all are so funny…cuz you’re both so smart!! And have so much empathy - from your characters (cuz even Anthony in sketches is a character) to your fellow castmates!! ❤ love this
Shane is just so incredible, this man is just so special and I can hardly even find words to describe how much I understand what he says. We all love Shane and are so proud of EVERYTHING he has done. Meeting him is a dream for him and it will happen one day.
I grew up on old and new Smosh and it continues to be my favorite thing to watch. It's impossible to calculate how much joy and laughter y'all have brought into my life, and how much it's helped me get through hard times. So thank you, really, from the bottom of my heart for all that you do
It's so nice to see anthony bonding with his stepchildren
When Anthony did leave Smosh I was heartbroken but what kept me going back to watch Smosh and their other channels was the new Smosh crew and Shayne really cemented himself into working hard and making me continue to laugh every week. He’s so intelligent and a vibrant person and it’s so nice he is getting that recognition too ❤
Shayne and Damien really are the nicest and best at Smosh, they’re the glue and I freaking love Shayne and how he was able to be open and vulnerable with Ian and it’s great to have Ian back because I think they can go even further with the brand like Apps and maybe a better movie or maybe a gag book. I just loved this video, I felt the love and wholesomeness from their talk.
From my heart, watching Shayne being goofy and having fun with his friends has helped me through some tough times in my life. To this day I'll rewatch particular videos that had me rolling on the floor, and I find the same amount of joy in them, no matter if it's the 100th time I'm watching it. And I love the creative freedom on Pit, allowing all the talents to be their authentic selves. Thank you to all members of smosh, you are the most genuine and kind people on all of TH-cam ❤
I felt shayne was one of the reasons I still watched smosh when I wasn't sure how smosh would be. His constant appearance was a nice familiar face and I was more accepting of many different changes and concepts experimented in smosh.
Been waiting for this the whole week! I Spent A Day With Series is awesome, but having Smosh people here just TOPPs it off - from Ian to Shayne, nice one Anthony. I'm glad we found you again. 😂❤
It was really heartwarming seeing Shayne and Anthony watching the Tom Cruise sketch. That's easily one of my favorite sketches from that era, and it was awesome seeing Shayne watching that again after so long, and especially Anthony as well having a great time watching it now, knowing how stuff in Smosh was behind the scenes back then
I'm so happy anthony is back but he's still doing this channel. I was a fan when they were together, I was a fan while they were apart. His creativity and rapport with Ian and the connection with the current cast is so genuine and positive. I love seeing these informational and interesting topics but having him back together with his childhood friend is so happy
