Me yelling into a microphone

This is the content I became a patron for

Christopher Bain

What would be interesting would be to see if you could train an AI to turn a script into the screaming. It looked like a lot of fun, anyhow.

CURTISSCOTT

Destin sacrificing his voice for the cause of highly suspect science is the best thing about this day.

Andrew Phillips

watching this before watching the actual video, and im dead without the context of it haha

Totally worth the blood oath!

MUH LASER!!!

Josh Patterson

I keep waiting for "DOCTOR OCTOGONOPUS!! or IMA FIRIN'

Josh Patterson

You made my Friday... this was AWESOME!!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🥵🤣🤣🤣

This brought our family joy.

Also, I have to ask, did you play/watch videos of any Mortal Kombat to get ideas for tone?

Icicle C Cold

YAS!! Thank you!! I promise not to distribute this!

Icicle C Cold

Well...if the PhD doesn't work out, there's always MMA announcing to fall back on

You're so lucky that you didn't have to do this live. Meow!

Martin Croft

Wait, What was the part about Adam Sandler?! Also, thanks for reminding me i'm old...

Clifton Ballad

Ah, the dinner conversation that must have followed :)

John Cox

Fundraiser/merch idea: For $10 Destin will scream your name.

Colin Principe

This is so funny!

Daniela Solis

There must be an online index of the videos you have produced. Please point me to it.

Charles Mueller

This was fantastic! The "gray blobby thing" bits made me think of Morbo from Futurama.

Clapping is used to sync multiple microphones and cameras when editing later, as it gives a very "sharp" point to sync audio to.

HAHAHA, Love it! I do videos for my 3-5 STEM classes and now I know I need to make a "behind the scenes" video. This is great.

OMG this is awesome and I can't wait to watch it (watched just the first couple). This is an awesome gift - I loved seeing the little clip you did include in the main video, so getting the whole thing.... my son and I are gonna get popcorn, sit on the couch, and watch this proper ^_^

Micah Cowan

THIS WAS A GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU FOR SHAAAAAAAAARIIIIIIIIING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where's MAXIMUM NOODLAGE?

Soooo great 😄

Hilarious! 😂

Absolutely hilarious XD Shame that I can't send it to my friends.

But with the guitar background!!! It’s be AAAAWWEEESSSOOOOMMEE

Axel Gieck

What’s with the clapping? And I think Spaghetti-Junction should have been like spaaaaahhhgetttiiiiiiii Junktioooooooonnnnnnnn!!!!

Axel Gieck

I laughed every time you did. That was awesome. I can’t imagine your voice the rest of the day, though.

Chris Robert

My principal just walked by my room and thought as stating a fight club 😂😂😂😂😂 Made my day!!!!

I would pay for a smarter everyday yelling ring tone. "YOU HAVE AN INCOMING PHONE CALL. -- ANSWER!!!" -- complete with snickers afterward. Thanks so much for sharing!

Glenn Wilson

What was your family's reaction in other rooms?

<> THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE YELLING VIDEO.... ... IT WAS AAAWESOOOMMMEEEE <>

That's why we love you! So fun! Love to all XO 💜

The fact that you're having so much fun with this makes it even better!

Timothy Smith

Jeremy is hilarious - engineer turned screamnouncer. He makes me want to visit spaghetti junction.

Miguel

The entire time I was watching the video on YouTube I was hoping to see this footage. My dream is fulfilled!

Until you cut to it in the video, I had no idea it was you screaming. It was perfect! So funny.

That is the funniest thing I have seen in a long while! Thanks for sharing it.

Paul Edhlund

classic!

This is silly and ridiculous. I'm glad people enjoy it!

Michael Steeves

Thanks for the entertaining trip to school for the kids this morning!

Love the Muttley snicker after each one!

Brian Pedersen

Good laugh! Keep it up 😂

Blobby thing wins! <-- Love it!

Video and audio seem to be out of sync on playback in the first couple seconds of watching it so far

Honestly, more senseless yelling in general is a good thing. This was great.

This made my night. Thanks for sharing! Pinky promise, not sharing!

Justin Smith

The only thing I wanted more than this was uncensored Lee on No Dumb Questions.

Ætherfox

I don't know which is funnier, your VO or you trying not to laugh, I agree with Zach a ring tone would be funny play it on a hidden Bluetooth speaker to prank a family member. awesome content. and Jeremy without a script.

Ken - Kendo161

Mr. Torgue would be proud 🤣

Can I get "Gray Bobby Thing Wins!!" As a ring tone 🤣

So very glad you posted this. Always love your videos and laugh when you discover or find something interesting, but these voice overs had me bursting out laughing and happy to be a Patreon so I can see the full thing!

If my understanding of the situation is correct this video cost me 5 bucks... got hit for two videos and was like where is the other video?

Gray Blobby Thing Wins!! <-- This is where I lost it! 🤣🤣

I love how much you crack yourself up during this...

MPotter

I think that's how it works.

Smarter Every Day

Looks like closing your eyes helped send more energy to your mouth!

Rick Gonzales

I'm surprised he didn't develop laryngitis from all that yelling! It was more fun than the original weedeater wars video. Maybe next time, you can get all the engineers doing this as a chorus! It'll sound like a stadium during the gladiator games. Great job, Destin! Keep up the good work.

Lisa Wyzard

🤣 Hysterical! Looks like a lot of fun. It be cool if you ever do announcer/screaming for something else if patreon members could pitch in. Someone out there might have the announcer/radio voice/monster jam. But all y’all were awesome. Thank you for sharing the fun.

David Vinson

I feel a strong heavy metal vibe in this one. Grey bloby the best by far... Thanks !

Thomas Malenfant

Hilarious! I was still rooting for 'grey blobby thing'....

This is Awesome especially since it didn't sound like Destin at first doing the Voiceover till he showed himself saying it is him lol consider me fooled

Sally Haylock

Can we make Destin laughing after each take the new Patreon logo? :D

Adam Haskin

I love behind the scenes stuff like this. Literally any video production always has tons on the cutting room floor and it's always interesting / revealing / hilarious, and stuff like this is a wonderful combination of all three. Remember, any time you've ever played a fighting videogame and enjoyed the voiceover, somebody did this for *days* ;) (Actually, on that note - good job! You have a shockingly small number of 'bad' takes, and getting it all done that quickly was impressive.)

Eric Leslie

I did not know I needed this in my life.

Eric H

I'd like to know too. My guess it is for automatic or easy recognition and separation of the different cuts/takes.

It's simultaneously a laugh track. So great!

lool. So I don't know anything about audio recording. Why was he clapping every so often?

I'm wondering what your wife and kids thought was going on in that room, you screaming what must've seem like bizarrly strange random stuff to someone not in the loop. Also, I got your thing in the mail this week (in Germany here). Now it's sitting right next to Derek's shade ball. Patreon is awesome. :D

dvdemon

You made my day 2 days in a row!

As a signer of the blood oath, This will never leave my phone at the worst, like ill show someone on my phone but not share it to theirs. This is glorious, and I would be completely satisfied if this is what my patreon bill went to in the future... If you were ever inclined to do something like this again, I would advise watching Linzey Rae's scream like a girl series. I was just a drummer but I get metal screaming and shes got a Real good explanation of it.

Clifton Ballad

It took me a bit to figure out that best takes were almost a little frantic and panicked. Those were the brilliant ones, like the announcer was simultaneoulsy psyched and terrified of the prospect and the alternative and... everything.

Jared Goor

Love how you lost it like every 90 seconds and burst into laughter :) To be able to make fun of yourself is one of the best and cheapest joys of life :)

This is so outside your personality. Loved it!!

Best material ever. Brought me to tears.

"GRAY BLOBBY THING WINS!!!!"

Tam Barlas

Oh, can’t wait to watch this! 😄

Clair High

You got a future there, dude!! You know, if the YouTube, dad, husband, engineer, rocket scientist, maker, philanthropist gigs all fall through. ;-)

Ed Williams

I have a question. If you ever yell at your children, which I highly doubt, do you immediately laugh? I do wonder if the two Weedwhackers were of the same power and mechanical condition. Thanks for a very enjoyable SmarterEveryDay episode.

Wonderful! Please remember to warm up your voice before screaming like that, we don't want your dulcet voice harmed.

This made me laugh! Thank YOU so much Destin, I loved it!

Terry Moore

Lol. Thank you

This was fantastic, thank you for sharing this. I had no idea one of the perks of being a Patron was entering into Blood Oath Covenants - I think this is a missed marketing opportunity!

Paul Barth

Hilarious! My wife walked in to see what was going on and said "Not getting smarter today, are we"? :-) So of course I had to show her the other video!

Steve Jones

Was a bad day. Finally got to this email. Made my day. Thanks!

This. Is. Gold. 😂

Loved this! Thanks for sharing it with us!

J and K

I’m imagining all of the time spent driving in the car by yourself screaming at the windshield to practice. Haha! That was some funny video. Thank you for sharing!

That was funny 👍

THE RUMBLE IN THE ROWS THIS SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAAAAAAY AT THE BLANKENSHIP FAIRGROUNDS.

Destin you'd be in good company here lolol. Every now and then working on things I'll say something like "RUSTY BOLT VS MY KNUCKLES....FFFFFFFIGHT"

Bounced back in a day!

Smarter Every Day

Because you like joy

Smarter Every Day

Sharp claps show up well in the waveform so I can separate the clips in premiere easily.

Smarter Every Day

I had George on zoom. As a fellow kid of the 80’s I wanted someone to help me hit the video game vibe.

Smarter Every Day

Trogdor vibes

Smarter Every Day

I had to use the backup mic I set to record at minus 12 dB

Smarter Every Day

That was so fun, thanks for sharing!

Laura Snell

I'm so glad you included a couple of clips of this session in the full video, because a) it was extra hilarious, and b) I never in a million years would have expected that "are you man enough for all this tea" scream out of sweet, gentle Destin. :P

RMD Cade

Love it

Marcelo Gallardo

That is hilarious! I have tears coming down my face. Thanks 😂🤣🤪

Reminds me of the old tractor pull commercials from the 80s, sunday, Sunday, SUNDAAAAYYY!!!! WE'LL SELL YOU THE ENTIRE SEAT, BUT YOU'LL ONLY NEED THE EDGEEEEEE!!!!

Joshua Dix

Hi Destin! Laughing my pants off here! questions: how was your voice in the days after this recording?

ruining the fun by pointing out the claps are probably segment markers for later editing (very easy to recognize in the waveform view).

Eero af Heurlin

The best thing is that he's clapping himself!

I love this so much! I was about to go to bed, but after watching this I feel like I need to go whack some weeds!

This was amazing. I am so grateful that I get to be a patron and support all the wonderful and joyful videos you make. Thank you for being awesome!

I re-watched the battle after seeing this video and it was even funnier!

Oh my god, why did I watch that whole video? Why did I giggle like a crazy person while I watched it?

Greg Baker

I love that you just start laughing after you finish each section

Elmer Fud

Alright now post all the "meow" takes

Hogtown Pens

I thought you had engaged a pro voiceover artist until I saw the later bits with you at the mic. Well done.

Gary Davis

Seem just like video game voice over of mortal kombat. You have a second career. Or third.

Darrel Crane

Pure. Joy. <3

Jerame Edwards

I can totally see this as the voice over for an abstract fighter game. But will refrain.

Ok..... what was the look on the wife’s face when you were done???? Hilarious!!!!!

Battle Five! Turbulent Flow versus Laminar Flow! !!**FIGHT**!!!

Gary Huntress

This was flawless.

When Geeks Craft - Nicole

Did you warn the family? Love it!

This. Is. Amazing. Thanks for sharing. Just curious, are the claps like audible bookmarks for editing purposes?

If time ever get hard, you’ve got a future in used car advertising. LoL

David Goodridge

And this is why I'm a patron 👏 🤘 😂 🤣

Thank you Destin. This was great patreon content. I died laughing between this and the actual video. I shall obey our contract and keep this between us.

Michael Lynch

Oh my face hurts from laughing. Thank you. Thank you so much.

THANK YOU!

This reminds me of that old dubbed MXC show.

So happy to see this and that you recorded the video. Who were you talking to? Did they sign a blood oath too?

Ryan Marks

Homestar Runner 4 the weeeeeeeeennn!!!

Mike O'Dell

This is the best way to end the week; I enjoyed the voiceover watching the video yesterday, but today I needed a good laugh before heading home from the office really late...this did the trick, thanks!

Oh my goodness. Watching you do this with the church giggles is hilarious!! You were cracking yourself up just as much as the rest of us! 😂😂😂

wizardfusion

I literally rewound the weedeater video to show my wife the little snippets of you doing this. So happy to have the whole thing!

Thanks for sharing! This was hilarious :)

1: laughing after each one is amazing 2: would love to get some of this action/energy on NDQ in the most absurd location

Actually quite impressive that you managed to get your mic set right without clipping it into oblivion

Nate

This video was the perfect way to end the day! :D

Thank you for trusting us with this! So fun....

So while you were recording this... where was the family? Also, how sore was your throat the next day?

DOUGLAS HOLCK

Of course I watched the whole thing. Despite what my wife was saying the entire time.

Best video for which I've sworn a blood oath covenant yet. Thank you for sharing Destin!

Blood oath covenants...

Smarter Every Day

Thanks!

Smarter Every Day

I want to share this so hard, because describing 'Mr. Torgue announcing weedeater fights' just doesn't do justice. But one must honor their contracts.

MythicFool

I KNEW the Titanium Blobby thing was cheated!

Your child-like goofy play is my favorite and keeps me 10 yrs old. Thanks for the best laughs from this 😂

Matthew J Palka

I made it 5 minutes in. I can't take any more tonight. I'll watch the rest tomorrow 😂 Amazing

Dale

"Grey bloby thing" had me dying every single time I heard it.

Oh man I was so happy to see this notification 🤣

What video? ;)

Andrew Ferguson

I was just watching the behind the scenes video when my notification for this came in.

Lol that's great! I believe I had sent you the blue and the gray square line for the other test but I may mistaken. Awesome content!

I’m super excited about this, I thought it was an awesome addition to the original video!

Addison Gilbert

He delivers. This makes me very happy. Thanks Destin!
