I have a new number one video and it is my number one video by such a large margin now!
8,669 views since August 11, 2022
Thank you everyone who has watched the video and has since subscribed.
I am at 188 subscribers and would love to get to 200!
I am very proud of this video. Unlike the Buying Batman Bundle video, the audio is great, it features my main character, Dynamo Dancer, in the style of Kitty Pryde, and it is a victory video at that.
Pretty much, every day I check my stats, this video keep increasing in views, and I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone! It really does mean a lot to me.
As my Bounce Patrol post is still one of my post popular posts ever! I thought it would be fun to lean into that for a moment. Plus, enough time has passed since the above video was posted. October 30, 2016, so a bunch of time has passed. This is probably the last video of theirs that I really saw, besides maybe playing whichever was their most current video at the time to Walker Dennis, to see if it registered with him. He didn’t seem all that interested, but that’s the difference three years can do to a youngling.
They made the video as a thank you for their first million subscribers. Now they are at 26.1 Million!
The questions they answer are :
How did they get started?
How did you all meet?
Who makes the most bloopers and outtakes?
Which videos were the most fun and which were the most difficult to make?
Do any of them have kids and do their kids watch the channel?
What is their favorite song that they have performed?
What are they going to be for Halloween that year?
Was it hard for Rachel to dance when she was pregnant in Mommy’s Got a Baby in her Belly?
Do they write their own songs, come up with their own choreography, and edit own videos, or is there a secret team who does all of that?
Do you hum your own songs while you are by yourselves?
How long does it take to create a video, from start to finish?
What makes each of you happy?
Alyssa and Jacinta are my favorites. Fun to see Shannon in front of the camera.
They seem to have slowed down on original videos, but good for them for making as many as they did! Two videos a month is still pretty impressive, even after starting on December 31, 2012, so just a year earlier than Walker was born, so we got into it at the perfect time.
I thought there was a quick way to see how many videos they have uploaded, but maybe that’s just something one can see on one’s own channel? Oh, the app on my phone shows the number, 200 videos! Which doesn’t seem right, but it must be!
I am still mostly making Fortnite videos and Walker Dennis and I have started making Mario videos on a more regular basis.
I also play the Playstation Plus titles every so often. We’re hitting a pretty good stride over there.
While looking up when we started making videos, our first video went up on June 30, 2019, which is crazy as I started this blog on June 30, 2013. There’s just something about me that gets really creative five days after my beautiful wife’s birthday, I suppose.
Our next YouTube goal is to get to 150 subscribers, so if you would be so kind to come over and subscribe, we would really appreciate it!
Our Top Four Videos are :
Buying Batman Caped Crusader Pack in Fortnite!
2. Iron Man Attends the Rift Tour in Fortnite!
3. Kitty Pryde in Lego DC Super-Villains “S.T.A.R.S. in Your Eyes”
4. First Victory as Doctor Strange in Fortnite!
Those are the videos with over a thousand views. The Doctor Strange video is probably closer to the quality of video I am making now. I finally figured out the mic levels as well as how to create the thumbnail instead of relying on Share Factory to hopefully pick a decent one or at they very least, having two other options that are usable.
Does anyone know if PS5 has Share Factory or the ability to record hour long videos? Not like we have plans to actually buy a PS5, but those would be my two biggest concerns with continuing the series.
We are pretty proud of our content and almost at 900 videos, so hopefully there’s content for everyone to enjoy somewhere in there.
But if you could please subscribe, that would mean a lot to me.
Thank you!
I have been thinking about the upcoming anniversary post and I can’t believe the blog still gets pretty regular views on a daily basis, thank you again for coming back or discovering the blog. I really appreciate it!
I really need to get the Platinum for Lego DC Super-Villains, but those levels are so long, but if I just played one a night, I should have it done in a month. I finally completed all of the map quests, so its just a matter of doing it now.
— Apollo | MAGIK | TOH Spoilers (@Toxic_Daybreak) August 26, 2021
They capture Magik with not only a Warlock pin but also a Lockheed pin! Let’s go!
If they can somehow incorporate Lockheed into one of her moves, that will be the only move I use and will keep reusing it as soon as the cool down occurs.
Magik is never going to leave my team.
I’m going to be using Magik and Wolverine as my permanent cast and then Iron Man if Walker is in the room with me.
The cast is : Doctor Strange, Magik, Iron Man, Wolverine, Nico, Ghost Ridder (Robbie), Blade, Captain America, and Captain Marvel, with a new character, The Hunter, that we customize. I’m going to try to make a Kitty Pryde and call it a day.
We get a gameplay trailer on September 1, so hopefully the game isn’t too much like XCOM. The developer, Firaxis Games, is stating it won’t be like XCOM as it is a tactical RPG, but I’m not sure what that really means as looking at hte list of games, I do not believe I have played any of them, much less heard of them.
But I am planning on getting this game and following the heck out of it, so there’s that.
Not thrilled that 2k is publishing it, but hopefully the mini-transactions are not too much or game breaking. They probably going to find this post and figure they can get at least ten dollars out of me with a Lockheed upgrade.
I was hoping by now that someone would have made a gif of Magik’s moments, but we’re not there yet. If you see one, please let me know.
Are you getting the game? Are you super hyped? TMNT : Shredder’s Revenge and Marvel’s Midnight Suns are the only games I’m planning on buying on launch day. I’m hoping Shredder’s Revenge is a 2021 game, but if it is 2022, then that’s what it is.
Almost two years ago, on September 12, 2019, my wife and I were treated to the comedy styling of Gabriel Rutledge.
We get so few music or comedy acts, and his comic book background caught my eye. It was super easy to convince my wife to go, and I have been thinking of his show ever since.
Thanks to Gabriel Rutledge for hosting his own video from October 2018.
He had an opening act, Chase Mayers, who was also pretty funny.
Thanks to Chase Mayers for hosting his own video as well. He had shorter hair by the time we saw him.
Walker Dennis is a huge fan of this Fortnite YouTuber, LazarBeam. LazarBeam makes all types of meme challenges in Fortnite, and Walker was inspired to create his own challenge. Walker’s challenge was to see if he could win a match by hiding in a Sneaky Snowman for as long as he can last.
I’m pretty proud of his commitment to the challenge as well as how he modified the challenge to include enlisting a bodyguard when possible. We were only going to capture the videos when he outlasted more people than the previous video.

Attempt 3
Conclusion
I am so very proud of that final video. It was a lot of fun to join him and play along with him.
Hopefully we get a set of headphones for Christmas and we can really step up our production value with these videos. Though I do follow quite a few Fortnite YouTubers who do not provide any commentary, and are purely gameplay, and I don’t mind at all.
The PS Plus Titles for December 2020 are – Just Cause 4, Rocket Arena, and Worms Rumble!
I haven’t played a Worms game since the late 90s, and it is no longer turn based, so it will be interesting to see how the game has evolved with the times. Worms is our PS5/PS4 crossplay title of the month. Really showing Bugsnax how to do it!
I have no connection to Just Cause or Rocket Arena. I heard Just Cause is a zany open world game built for destruction, so that should be fun for a night. Rocket Arena, I have only seen PlayStation Access stream it the one time. I thought there was a lady with a pet dragon, so that is up my alley. Most likely, it was a lady with dragon wings, but I will take representation where I can.
. . .
PS Prices
PS Prices lists three versions of Just Cause 4 – Reloaded, Complete, and Gold. Hard to tell which version we are going to receive, or if they make a special vanilla version that does not come with any of the additional content.
Rocket Arena is typically $30, but has been as low as $4.99 in the past.
Worms Rumble is a brand new game, starting at $15.
So our total savings for December $20, and I’ll act like Just Cause 3 is a free game, just like Call of Duty : WWII. Bugsnax is a $25 game. So adding to our total of $252, we have a savings of $297, nearly $300 worth of games for 2020!
I simply do not get people who complain about PS Plus. I get those people who are lucky enough to buy whatever games they want, but then I’m not sure why they subscribe for Plus then? For the off chance a game they don’t own makes the list?
I earned my 35th platinum with Dementrios! A pretty fun game. I followed a guide the entire time, but it is a fun and relatively short game. Six chapters, so did it over a course of six nights.
. . .
I played a night’s worth of Hollow Knight and Shadow of War.
Shadow of War, was nice enough. The combat is a little repetitive and I was feeling like all I was doing was fighting all of the time.
Hollow Knight, I found to be more enjoyable. I got stuck on the first real boss, I tried it twice, then my night was pretty much done. I meant to go back to it, but other games have gotten in the way.
. . .
I did play a night’s worth of Worms Rumble, and had a pretty fun night. I was not very good, but I got to level 5, and enjoyed the three modes.
. . .
Walker Dennis and I are super obsessed with Fortnite. Chapter Two Season Four ended and Season Five has begun.
Here is Walker’s final match in Season Four :
In hindsight, I overlooked having him view all of his gliders and emotes, but he came in third, and missed the end of the match by a minute.
Walker already won a match as the Mandalorian for Season Five, which is very impressive.
We have also gotten better at making videos and using ShareFactory on the PS4.
Season Four was Marvel them and Season Five is Bounty Hunter theme, with new original characters in the Battle Pass. So I am not as tempted to go beyond level 100. I am only trying to level myself up once a day or night, and I’m mostly dedicated to getting Walker leveled up as I am starting to view it as more of his game.
Though I still super enjoy it, but I’m starting to really commit to just buying him any skins or items that look the most interesting. But I also want the Battle Pass for myself so when we do play together, I have access to the cool new stuff.
For myself, I bought Monks, an adorable sock monkey. Now if my beautiful wife wants to play, she has a skin she can use. I super regretted not buying Monks when she was available back in October, but I was super hesitant to purchasing her or any skins. Now, I am more tempted to buy skins, but not to go crazy on just any cool looking ones.
Walker was super sweet and bought me the Kratos set, which was awfully sweet of him. Sweet, but not necessary. I rather he saved his V-Bucks for when he really wants something.
We are super anticipating Winterfest 2020 or 14 Days of Fortnite, whichever branding they go with.
So yeah, when I get a chance to game, I’m playing Fornite all of the time at night. Still not burnt out on it, and super enjoying myself.
