courtney basically saying "where's anthony?" (im joking btw lol)

i love this video so much but in this clip at least, you can just hear the passion from their voice. not just as a smosh fan but as someone who was anthony's co-worker back then. courtney's love for smosh is the proof that she is smosh's 2nd biggest fan. next to anthony (if you watch their flashback eps) 
also, just the love that all of these people have for this creative job that they have. i cant wait to see what this new era of smosh has in store for us in 2024! happy holidays smosh and everyone!

Courtney seems like she's about to cry the whole time 🫡🥹

@boomgirlbucko

This implies that Courtney would’ve quit in an alternate universe where Anthony never came back. And that’s just sad. Thank f*cking God he came back or we would’ve lost them

Came back to this after trying to think about why this moment stuck out to me during the podcast. It's so interesting since they unpack things now that Anthony's back. Shayne's said in the "where's anthony" reaction video it kinda had to be business as usual and mostly pretend he was never there (which totally makes sense from a PR standpoint, even without Defy), but it almost feels kinda validating for the fans where we can all admit it does suck that someone co-created this business, helped it achieve, and had to leave it all behind even if it turned out well. Especially since Courtney started as a fan and worked with Anthony for a while before he left, it makes sense they would have feelings beyond just a coworker quitting.

But god, I loved this entire episode, especially hyping up Courtney's directing skills lol, wish I was there to hype them up too!
