 Hi it's Kyle. It's Allison. And we're wishing you a Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Hope you're all having a great day. We just wanted to check in with everybody. I know a lot of you have asked how everybody else indoor monster is doing and just generally what's going on. So instead of just telling you, I decided to have them fill you in themselves. Howdy everyone. It's Ian. Hey it's Jeff. Hi it's Thomas. And Kate. Hi it's Olive. Hey JP here. What have I been up to since I've been on the channel regularly? Um, something important happened. I'm trying to put my finger on it. What was been taking so much of it? Right, right. I had a baby. I am still in the exact same place. I have been at least most of the videos you've ever seen me in. So literally haven't moved. You dear viewer at home might be wondering, who's Olive? I have never heard of this person. What's this mysterious goblin? Don't worry. None of those questions will be answered. I've been trying to convert a bus to live in for the better part of three years. Most of that was doing nothing. We haven't been up to too much, you know, just as of late getting ready for the holidays. Got kind of a new job. So that's going well. I work at a music tech company. I also try to make music here and there where I can. I haven't put out anything new in quite a while, but there is hope. I can feel it coming. Got a job, got a job, moved to New York City, went back to Texas, came back to New York City. I'm enjoying kind of like getting back to doing just random stuff that I like on the channel. I started working on a cyberpunk cosplay and I have a mini-zine that I'm working on that maybe you guys will see sometime in the near future if you are on Patreon. I've mostly been streaming. I'm still doing that. I've been doing that forever. I'm still in Texas, unfortunately. I kind of wish they'd let me leave, but it just won't let me escape. I've also been doing a lot of gaming lately. Stardew Valley has me by the balls. I can't afford an apartment because I put all my eggs into this basket. So it's kind of, it's kind of my only hope. Kyle just had COVID for two weeks and still might be contagious. That's why we're standing like this. That's how I've been doing. Related probably to the whole baby thing. Tired. Really tired. Really, really happy, but really, really tired. It's a bit of an adjustment. Yeah, it's just been quiet. We're being boring and kind of enjoying being boring. Yep, there you go. I'm sick. Pretty sure Kyle included a plague with the list of questions that they sent to me, but things are better. Don't include that. It's not all bad. I granted thought of six trailer was pretty good. It's no longer that sleep is for the week. Sleep is for babies. Pessimism and jokes aside has been really good to embark on a great quest. It's very worthwhile to do something in your life that you are not prepared to do pushes me to my limits because I like to find out where those limits are, which is why I do a lot of drugs too. I would encourage you to do that as well. I miss like just the camaraderie of kind of having everyone together and working on sketches. Yeah, sketches are always fun. It's kind of like one of the very few times I ever get to hang out with my friends. I don't really get to do that very much anymore. Every single day I'm doing anything, I would rather be setting up a film shoot. Honestly, y'all always deserved better actors than me anyway. Standing there trying really, really hard to do Marble Ones without blinking. I would say the thing I miss most about being in Door Monster sketches were the moments where a line or a part was just so funny that it was nearly impossible to get through a take without laughing. I think my favorite thing was whenever I was recording a line and I'd be like, oh, hey, can I like improv something real quick? And I would try a read of the line that wasn't exactly to script. And it would be really goofy and make a lot of people laugh. I really miss being on set. It's just fun putting on a costume, putting on a silly accent and pretending to be someone else is just the best thing ever. And then having a video record of that, having a piece of work of art. It does a lot for you, you know, it's a great creative outlet and you're always around your friends and you're doing stuff and it feels very rewarding. I definitely miss like Matt and Kyle just coming up with stuff on the fly. Honestly, like working with Matt is probably one of my favorite things because he just kind of is a character as a person. I hope to do it some more. That's all I really want to do. I hope all the Door Monster fans out there have an absolutely wonderful holiday and a Merry Christmas. As always, thank y'all all so much for caring about anything that I've done. Thinking that I'm funny, which may be a mistake on y'all's part, but it's one that I appreciate. Thank you for all the years of support. Thank you for everyone who reached out to me regarding my music for the people who covered Living Forever. It was always such a joy to hear from anyone. You're very supportive and you enjoy the stuff that I make and that's the only thing I ever look for is just that other people like the thing that I'm making. There are just still people who still just care about like home. You've all really held up in the last few years. All I want to be now is the same thing that people have been for us to someone else. Yeah, y'all are awesome. Y'all are incredibly kind even to the haters and losers, you know, those are honestly some of my favorite comments. Stop calling me Ian if you're out there and uh you're sad and lost and confused uh like we all are uh I would encourage you to do something just do something. Find something stupid that's held to do like convert a bus. I hope all of you have a wonderful holiday season and a very happy new year. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Thank you for watching. I hope y'all had a great Christmas. Hope you enjoyed hearing from everybody. We'll see where we go in the new year because we got some cool new ideas. Yeah, got it. Yep. All right. Thank you all and Merry Christmas.
