TIMESTAMPS COMING SOON👻🪳
The story of Matara's boasting about not drinking reminds me of my mother. She was a big Coca-Cola drinker and one time she quit cold turkey. Every phone conversation for the next few months was "I don't know what I liked about it to begin with" and "It just tastes awful."
Then one night she had some at a restaurant and never stopped drinking it again. I guess her fortitude was as solid as jelly.
47:29 oh no! I left you both my card! (I'm sorry that's all I had that was work-related other than my Outer Wilds shirt orz) If the tiny thing disappeared somewhere I'll find a way to make that up to you! That said, it was great meeting you Matara, and glad you both had a great time!
It's wild how jelly I am of everyone who was able to get to Offkai. Sounded like everyone had a ton of fun!! A bit less jelly of those who got sick out there tho... Hope you both (and everyone else who got sick) feels better soon!!
that cov-pium bit aged like outdoors milk
wait, alot of con goers got it?
@@nathanielbaldevino5364My brother and I got it sadly
@@nathanielbaldevino5364 Not only Matara but also about half of... I think V4Mirai? And I think a few Phase Connect people. Offkai was unfortunately a super spreader event, and a reminder that even though a lot of the dangers of covid have been mitigated through vaccination it is still a transmissible disease that can do damage.
Matara's talk about the importance of being well-rested for the con events, culminating in the hypothetical, "what if you won a meet-and-greet with me, and I was just dead-tired/hungover" instantly reminded me of a dream I had a few years ago.
In the dream, I was given an opportunity for a 1-on-1 meet-and-greet + gaming session with an oshi. It wasn't something I'd purposely signed up for, and I was like, "It's fine if I don't do this, she's probably busy/tired/has more important things to do etc, I don't want to waste her time, don't want her to feel obligated to put on the "entertainer" mask just for my nobody ass etc. But I had to do the M&G, because the dream makes the rules, not me. And the M&G turned out exactly as I'd feared, with my oshi's desire to not be there being abundantly obvious, and I felt like garbage for wasting her time. Even after waking up, I felt bad despite it not even being real lol. This dream was so uniquely unpleasant, it's burned into my memory, even several years later lmao.
I remember seeing Mint cutting out stickers for the panel on Twitter, and being jelly of the people who got to go. I was trying to decide which of my possessions I'd put the sticker on if I got one. The idea of people taking their ultra-limited 1st edition Minto sticker and just slapping it on the underside of some random con furniture is unthinkable- it's mind-boggling! Clearly I still have much to learn about you humans.
Wishing y'all get well soon, and I hope you've been able to salvage some good experiences from the trip despite things not going according to plan.
The two of you really brings so much joy to my life, I love listening to this podcast! Very jelly of the people that could meet you during Offkai, less so for the struggles that came after!
OFFHAGS
- 0:36:36 - Matara's heroic efforts to cut back on her alcohol intake. 🍷
- 0:49:00 - Mint and Matara's advice about preparing any questions in advance, so precious time isn't wasted. ⏰
- 1:03:16 - At least the sea lions don't stink like the hobo excrement that runs like sewage jelly over that city's streets. 🤮
Thank you for the podcast, Mint and Matara! 🌿👻🪳
I just saw a short of Patrick Stewart talking about being greeted by a standing ovation of 2k people at their first Star Trek con. Hearing that this group had 1k ready and waiting for them is super heartwarming and totes respectable. More power to you Mint and Matara!
Just wanting to say as one of the guys who was at Offkai. I was really super happy to meet you two at the panel and the robot on the final day. Was super bummed out that I wasn’t able to win the lottery and the fcfs. But getting to talk to you two and show you the awesome Henya belt me and maeriette made me the most happiest ever on that day which made Offkai the funniest con I’ve been in years. So yea Mata the numbers don’t lie! Still thank you guys - Solidmarine21
They got Copium-19...
Copid19 if you will.
Legit look forward to these two yapping every week. It's become part of my Monday routine.
Mintara Monday? My life is blessed and my day is saved!
I am so jelly of all of the adventures you guys are on! Glad you are both thriving and thank you for another great episode!
I'm so JELLY for those that could attend.
I am a bit late to listening to this one but thank you for sharing your Offkai experience, I am kind of "Jelly" that you were able to go as I was unable to make it. I really enjoy listening to the both of you yap, it is always a great start to my day since new episodes come out in the morning for my time zone.
I'm so jelly of the people who were able to come see you two at the convention :(
I love that this is set up using paint
Offkai was incredible and I miss it already, definitely going back next year! It was an honor and privileged to meet you both there! I definitely agree that meetngreets never give enough time. Next time I'm in one I'll give my oshi a chance to interrogate me lmao
I hope you both recover quickly from whatever plague got you, I finally recovered from covid and tested negative yesterday, after several days of suffering.
Offkai was worth it though lol
I remember an earlier Episode, Mint said she wanted to Climb a Volcano. She should try Mt St Helens on Mother's day. Everyone goes up in a dress
This is true and a great idea.
It’s nice of them to apologize for quality but there is something just so special and endearing about these sorts of hotel room/off collab style streams. The responses and reactions to each others expressions or movements. So fun
Listening to the beginning of this episode and hearing the early symptoms of the OffKai covid outbreak was a bit heartbreaking, given the almost impossibly bad timing of it, but I'm so glad to hear about your experiences at the con and that you guys had so much fun. I'm not jelly at all, you both deserve all of that and more. Wishing you both a speedy recovery!
I am so jelly of all of guys and girls who met Marara and Mint in offkai
Thank you for the podcast, Mint and Matara! You guy seem to have fun with the patreon singing at the end lol I'm catching up with your vod and jelly! (now I really want to have one too!)
I’m so glad this episode is here to capture this moment in the pod’s history. Hearing about y’all’s experiences with offkai was super sweet! I hope you were able to enjoy at least a little jelly carefree before things took a turn.
Hope you two get well soon💚💜
I'm so jelly of Mata and Mint's friendship!
21:36 And that was the beginning of the mystery of the haunted hotel room
I LOVE YOU MINTO~😭💚Thank you for all your hard work! And I’m happy to hear Matara’s Japanese🤍ojousama!
Hope you to recover from the Vid-19, sucks the trip was a bust. Glad y'all had a good time at offkia at least. Hopefully you two get to meet up with Wawa sometime, hear you both fangirl was fun.
It's kinda funny. I didn't realise that the ladies were just PNGs until halfway through, not because I wasn't paying attention, but because at this point I can picture their movements and expressions when they talk so well in my head that my mind just kinda filled it in while they weren't moving. Or maybe all this time in the VTuber rabbit hole has just turned my brain to jelly.
i look forward to this every week. Just mint and matara comfortably chatting warms my heart. (I also listen to it when im about to sleep bcs it's just that comfy, thank u hags -w-)
The one thing OffKai forced me to recognize is that I need new glasses. Driving was more precarious than I would have preferred, and I literally missed my kamioshi sitting directly in front of me!
Also my mustache wax the first day wasn't put on very well, because I was late even getting out of bed. Actually that too: I was late the _whole_ convention. (It's Clubman brand wax, and it's not difficult to put on if you have an idea of how to do it. It comes out a little wet (not like jelly, just kinda moist), and dries beyond being able to do things with it quickly, but then you want to leave it a while to properly dry. Above all else, don't not use a mirror. Foggy mirror from after a shower does not count.)
Luckily it was better by the second day, because I went home and redid it, but then I was late getting back for the soundcheck! I think I actually saw the bus that I missed _right_ as it was leaving, and I was all the way up a flight of stairs at Millbrae. Luckily soundcheck had kinda barely started when I got there, iirc. (I hope I practiced enough. I know there were a lot of tenors so I was probably drowned out, but they were fun songs and I wanted to do well for my first ever real singing performance.)
Mint has been in Japan for almost a week now. She will soon be 100% jelly
Sorry Mint, crying "[vtuber] HATES us" came from Vesper Noir of holostars first. It spread to yours and other chats after he graduated
I feel like this is true
Pretty sure it came from Jerma, anytime he would talk about not streaming or say anything about his fans people would spam "he HATES us"
Then I stand corrected :(
@@BoulderGaming33 it would not surprise me in the least if a large portion of Vesper's fans were Jerma fans LOL
@@mintfantome oh no I made Mint ":("
she HATES me!!
They make you bit for an upgrade? I usually just charm the person on the desk. But I guess airports are a lot more casual in Australia.
Dohnuts are great, jelly are my favorite. Nothing beats a jelly filled donut.
Offkai sounds so fun! Super jelly of all the merch I saw floating around Twitter, glad you two and everyone had fun!!
Jealous of your con and your trip,
Except now you are sick, so RIP.
Let’s hope it’s still fun,
Live, love, lactate hun.
You’re together in this friendship.
To be fair there is a London bridge in the USA, but it's in Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
I'm so jelly of your trip to Japan
Just like peanut butter and jelly. I hope to get meet and greet tickets next year at offkai to really make that con exp a filling exp.
Matara needs a nanny to take care of her and her tech.
I've never been to a convention before but to hear you talk about how much fun it is for the past few weeks does make me more interested. I might be a little jelly of people who work up the nerve to commit to attending.
A true podcast with audio only, let's gooo!!!
I hope you girls are feeling better!
Blessed the lucky folks who got to go to offkai.
I'm sure the amount of fans you girls get to show up in these events is still surprising.
Well, IT SHOULDN'T BE, You are the best hags in the world 💚🤍
"We are feeling a little stuffy".
If only they knew...
I’m glad I got to be at Offkai this year and not be jelly with fomo! I loved your panel and I was so worried I wouldn’t have made it inside once I saw the line outside! Your podcast is a ton of fun and I’m glad I was in that fun crowd. You both vibe so well with the crowd but also I have no idea why the crowds at a lot of the panels decided to do monkey chants lol.
Also just as a KFP myself I loved how many of us showed up and I loved seeing how many also supported y’all. Wish I got a meet and greet with either of you two or Kiara but I know the odds were probably crazy. Loved hearing how Mint you took pictures for Kiara and also how you both loved her performance. It was a blast on Saturday despite how insanely long the line was with there being a full house that day! I didn’t even go back on Sunday because I was so dang tired after Saturday lol. Too bad I also caught COVID even though I had only had 1 really bad sick day oof. Thanks for being such good friends to Kiara and also just glad to see y’all had a fun time. I would love to see y’all again next year for sure!
HAGS!! Honestly, still incredibly bummed about missing offkai and jelly of everyone sharing their fun stories from it but it was still fun listening in! Hope you guys feel better soon and can still make the most of your trip!
Sounds like bert kerisher, that wants to stop drinking and then drinks anyway but then also goes on like a kilometer run while hangover, but not hungover
@1:17:00 - I think the best thing to do going forward would be to get the address of the hotel and see if you can find room pictures on google for that address. If possible, it's usually going to be a lot more accurate than trusting the websites, as those might not update. I should know, I worked at four different hotels that had undergone renovations and they did not update their own website. They usually left it to corporate, who never bothered to show up.
Like quite a bit of wisps, still a bit jelly from missing out on Offkai since we are a continent apart, but glad those who went had probably the greatest time they have ever had at a convention! Hope those of you who got sick are getting better in no time! 👍
Sad that the girls ended up having a bit of a rough time at Japan, but hope all works out in the end after all 🤞
Thank you for the episode! Listening to the show every week is a nice thing to look forward to!
Also thanks for getting Mr. Lonely stuck in my head, time to look at gifs of jelly wiggling to the beat of the song!
Mintara Monday blesses us again 🙏
So jelly I wasn't able to go to off kai and see you guys! Been loving the podcast so much and it's great to see you two having so much fun. Much love my two favorite hagmaxxers.
I went to Katsucon this year and omg the cosplay was amazing!! it was my first con too and it was such a good experience, I want to try cosplaying myself next year there!
Thank you for this weeks Podcast! I went to offkai and it was a blast, definitely a bit small due to the massive Jelly amount of attendees but it was much more fun than I anticipated. I got to get the stickers and the signed post card and met online friends
Got the bill for What You Did! Judge
59:03 Mint is a Mythical Beast confirmed
Im so jelly about your Offkai adventures. It sounded like yall had such a good time.😊
Conventions (V-Tuber conventions specifically) feel like such an out or reach thing for me, be it due to time, funds and location so I always appreciate when the events can be streamed in some way. Offkai did good on that regard (would say great, but I heard things weren't so great for everyone). I'm glad I could experience even a bit of it and I'm super happy you two had so much fun on it.
And yeah, maybe these days weren't so great for you, maybe you two are feeling like jelly wobbling all around the room but the great weeks will come eventually. Just take this as a chance for having a chill break and focus on getting better. Plenty of summer days left on the year!
Thx for the stream, i had a jelly good time.
Thanks for another great episode this week! I'm glad y'all were able to have fun at Offkai, and try not to let the setbacks get you down. This is the big HAG summer and ain't nothing gonna keep us from having fun 😎
Glad to hear you guys had a good time at Offkai and got to meet so many fans (even if one of those fans was microscopic and lacks personal space awareness) I'm in Britain so I couldn't go, kinda JELLY 🥲
Also, dunno if Matara saw it, but that guy talking about painting Tyranids in her colour scheme before reminded me that I recently uploaded something on the Twitters, a legally distinct Tyranid/Xenomorph bug lady that I painted in Matara's colours. Think it came out pretty good if I do say so myself! The pink and white tones work really well, not the edgey palette I usually go for lol
I'm really jelly of those who got to go to offkai. I couldn't go next year, but maybe next year.
Another banger episode glad you guys enjoyed Offkai 2024, going to conventions always feel magical. It's awesome you guys shared your experience and saw all the cool stuff there yall ate so good fr kind of makes me jelly fr though. Looking forward to next episode HELL YEAH HAGS 🤟
Glad you guys had a good time, even if Matara was a pile of jelly by the end.
Remember there's someone out there whose gonna be your special peanut butter so don't be jelly. One day you too will be in a happy PB & J sandwich.
I'm glad both of you are so free now
Thanks for the podcast, very fun! I hope Mint gets to enjoy some jelly while stuck in the hotel room, at least...
I had a great time at offkai, especially Mint's impromptu M&G, and seeing Matara at the maid cafe!
I was eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich while watching this. This podcast is the perfect companion for eating alongside!
OffKai was super fun! Glad I could meet Mint even if it was for like 10 seconds lol
I'm so excited for you two to be in Japan and for the podcast to be on Phase 2! I am however not jelly of your current rooming situation
I hope you two are having a great time in Japan! I’m super jelly of you both right now.
I really enjoyed offkai and seeing so many people! I tried my hand at wotagei during the concert but my arms felt like jelly so i eased up a bit. can't wait for next year!
I'm so jelly.. I want to go to a convention too
“Peanut butter jelly with a baseball bat”, it’s been a while goddammit
great episode (rip tho, get well soon)! it was fun to hear about all your offkai adventures, although i am jelly hearing about all the meet and greets...one day
I laughed myself jelly during that $5 story. A great anecdote.
The con experience always sounds like so much fun, it makes me so jelly lol
hope you two try some of the japanese jelly snacks while you are in japan! I wish I could've come and meet you at OffKai, maybe next year!
48:50 I'm totally fine with you talking at me. I get nervous when I meet my oshis.
I like donuts. JELLY-filled are my favorite. Nothing beats a JELLY-filled donut
Wonder if the plane trip turned out like that plane episode from Seinfeld
Thanks for the episode! Jelly is good on toast.
Thanks for the new episode! Always a joy to listen to you two's stories. And Mint, these kinds of things happen so dont be too hard on yourself. SCREW YOU HOTEL CHAIN!!
Also I love jelly :D
The maid who sold the world... (for 5 dollars)
I'm so jelly of people that got to talk to Matara and Mint on the little robots
Mint you monster!!!! HOW. COULD. YOU. Mata gets to steal the toiletries/robes now. 🤣🤣🤣
My legs felt like jelly after trying to chase a bus
No one is jelly at you two getting cobid on a Japan trip ... Hope you guys get well soon!
Had to watch the VOD instead of live, sorry! My brain was jelly from bad sleep and meds. Another great episode tho! HAGS!
I made some jelly a couple weeks ago, ate half of it and left it at the back of my fridge, forgot about it and had to throw it away because mold grew on it :(
Did you know a dehydrated guy can make clear jelly?
i'm jelly of you all, i wanna go to japan too
Someone left a cursor (or something) over Matas right shoulder :D
Man I wish I was able to go to Offkai, I'm very jelly of everyone who went. Unfortunate the US is a little too far to me. Just need a Japanese con to go to
Jelly Gear Jiggle: Slimy Snake
16:27 - I know Katsucon. Anyone else goto Katsucon 5? :D
I would love to see a Matara Calli drinking stream.
Jelly! Thanks for the podcast!
