Hey all,
Many of you know that we don't do video sponsors very often, and when we do - it's only for products that we truly believe in.
Today's sponsor is huge to us. Our work emails are littered with scam emails, spam and unsavoryness, and we've had to put some pretty tough security on logins and password protections. We've also had people show up at our house (many in our patron live chats know about these instances) which has prompted us to move homes.

Hello all, Kirk here.
We're having another Patron Live Chat today on our usual Friday time (after Daylight Savings here in the US), and this time we'll be playing Quiplash again.
Everyone is welcome, and even if you're not playing, you can be a part of the audience and still have just as much fun/compete! It's a really great time, and I hope you all are able to make it.
Elizabeth will be opening the live chat and Quiplash forum to submit our own questions 5 minutes early, ...

Hello lovelies!
We'll be attending NAMM in Los Angeles soon - a HUGE conference surrounding music gear. In preparation for that, I'd like to ask everyone to tell us about 1 piece of music gear that you love. This could be your headphones, an instrument, or even the device you play music from. We'll be meeting with a lot of companies, and I'd love to get some insight from all of you before we do!
Hope to see you all there!
Bests,

Here we go!
We still have the studio shut down so we won't be able to film this until late April, but. . . I'm excited for this list! There's a lot of close call videos, and from what I'm seeing here, some bands I know well and some bands I've heard of (but never heard).
Please listen to all of the songs before making your decisions!

Hello lovelies!
I'm holding another Live Chat this evening, and I really, really need the relaxation and break. So, I figured we could do another round of Jackbox this evening for some laughs, fun and enjoyment.
Everyone is welcome, even if you're in the audience rooting us on, or against us!
I hope to see you all there!

Hello lovelies,
We'll be hosting another live chat today at 1:00PM Arizona time. Note the time shifts below, as many of you have gone through a silly custom called Daylight Savings recently.
As we've been moving lately, I'd love to just take a break and play games with y'all. Trivia Murder Party (from Jackbox) is easy to setup and I *might* be able to get my desk up in time to show you the new office before.

Hello all, Kirk here,
We're going to hold another live chat tomorrow with the same topic as Wednesday: extended vocal technique, and when you find it most effective. Extended vocal technique is anything beyond regular clean singing, for example: harsh vocals, screaming, tuvan throat singing, burps.
Hope to see you all there!
Best,
Kirk

Hey everyone,
So Elizabeth and I are prepping to fly out to Denver tomorrow, and we're frantically prepping the content we're going to be filming (about 25+ videos worth over the course of the weekend), and making sure everything's ready for Mycroft's first ever plane right and four night stay away from home.
It's a lot. We don't have the convenience of bringing all his stuff, which is a new thing for us new parents.

Hello all,
One more Patreon Exclusive video this month, this time the Tea Time with Nergal of Behemoth and Me and That Man.
Due to the nature of this interview, it is graphic and contains sexually explicit content, anti-religious content and is not suitable for our YouTube audience.
Additionally, as we agreed with the label not to release this interview, please do not screen record or capture any of this. If any facets of this interview get released unofficially, w...

Hello wonderful patrons!
Last year, Elizabeth held an interview with Nergal of Behemoth and M&TM. However, due to the nature of the content within that interview, we decided not to post it publicly as it is not the type of content our brand promotes.
That said, after much discussion with Elizabeth, we've decided to release it to Patrons only. Please, do NOT screen record OR release any of this footage, or the interview, or we will be forced to take it down for ev...

Hello all,
We've had a subdued week here due to the passing of Kirk's stepfather on Monday. He was close to us and was the official Grandpa of Mycroft, and his passing was sudden.
We're canceling live chat on Friday because we'll be traveling to be with family. We don't know when the funeral will be, but we'll likely be traveling a couple different times. We're still hoping to do a special YT live stream event soon, unboxing the 1M gold button and revealing a special somethi...

Tomorrow's live chat (or today if you live on an island continent) will be another round of 2T1L. The topic: Who is your music inspiration?
With The Singing Hole releasing a deconstruction of Nina Simone next week, I thought what better topic than what musicians have inspired you to do great things, think great things or make you a better you.

Hello all, Kirk here.
We're doing a live chat this afternoon (90 minutes from the posting of this message) with a pretty great topic: How would you change the world with 1.2 million people following you?
Elizabeth and I are currently trying to find ways we can help influence positive change in the world with the platform we've created, beyond making analysis videos. We'd love your insight as well!
Hope to see as many people there as we can!

Tonight will be our January Beat Saber session. As always, submissions were made by our Voyeur/Blade Singers, and Elizabeth's prepping to slash virtual blocks with light sabers to their music. It's going to be fun!
This session will be 2 full hours (give or take a little time) so come with your drinks/food handy!

Hello all!
Some of you might have noticed no invite was sent out for the Masterclass today. There was a lot of difficulty coordinating schedules with singers in addition to the challenge of staying healthy at this time of year, and I wasn't able to pull things together. So, as a replacement I'm planning to make a little video for y'all. I'd like your suggestions for a topic!
This video is going to be a test for potential face-to-camera content that we'd release on The Singing Hole...

Hello all!
If you were at the premieres today, then you know we received a block during the premiere of Meat Loaf. As unfortunate as it was, we were able to quickly pivot to still release a video to everyone.
E and I are down in the dumps (and exhausted) and need a pickup! So, we're thinking another round of Jackbox with all of you. Then, Among Us later!
Would love to see you all there!

Hello all, Kirk here,
Wednesday's live chat topic is the same topic of our next The Singing Hole video: Can AI replace a lead singer?
What are the ethics behind it? The business implications? The positives stemming from it (if there are any)? I expect this to be an amazing chat!
Hope to see you all there!

Tomorrow we're releasing our 4th ever video on The Singing Hole, and we pushed to make this a masterpiece. I convinced Will Ramos to guest narrate, and the work the team put in to make this happen was immense.
I would LOVE all your support to attend the premiere if you can to help boost this video in the YouTube algorithm best we can!

I figured since I had an extra live chat this week, I'd still hold to the scheduled Friday chat this week and continue forth with the AMA theme. Wednesday was National Trivia Day here, and so we had a lot of fun doing not only an AMA on Instagram, but also in the patron chat.

Since today is National Trivia Day, I decided to hold an AMA over on my IG/FB accounts, and figured I'd cascade that down into our live chat tonight as well. Please bring almost any question you like and we'll have just a ton of fun discussing!
