“Does the age gap make it harder to relate to each other on screen?”

*proceed to improv an entire scene together unprompted*

[JayOfSunshine_]

Damien is so cool, Trevor is so cool, Amanda is so cool. I cannot.

[brilab]

i remember on smosh mouth anthony talked about how his channel is a space to be more serious and now coming back gave him an outlet to do comedy again, and i feel like he gave the smosh cast the opposite of that. they have a space to be more serious now!

[nlmnd]

Alternate title - Damien, Amanda, and Trevor loving each other for an hour.

[Bethydawn]

Damien and Amanda immediately making sure Trevor knows they value him and see him as an equal cast member warms my heart so much <3

[justnone]

Trevor definitely has a place at smosh . He was spot on about the “nepo baby” description of getting the job, but ONLY AS FAR as mythical getting his foot in the door. Only reason Trevor has his spot at Smosh now is cause of himself :)

[ChristieLeeLee]

I've never got mean vibes from Amanda at all. She seems so lovely and caring. Instantly wanted to be her friend! Actually shocked me that assumption and her saying she gets it a lot!

[sys]

I agree with Amanda completely: the “New Smosh” energy we got between Ian & Anthony buying it and the 3 newer cast members, where Amanda was definitely grouped in as a fourth

[kutenno]

Damien mentioned people thinking him and Angela hated each other. I can see how or why people might catch that but one of the funniest moments I re-watch is when he flipped out while they were playing a party game and she's just giggling her butt off. ("GOD DAMNIT ANGELA!") It's still one of the funnier clips.

People take things seriously and personally way too often. A game is being played, natural frustration occurred, game continued on. That's all that usually occurs.

Keep doing you buds.

[chubbycakes]

The thing I like about Damien is that even though he is an introvert he still tries to get himself out there and improve his social skills while some don’t even try.

[JeiElRai]

I'm realizing what i really love about the whole extended Smosh Family is hearing from people who collectively have high emotional intelligence and health, resulting in the notably high quality of conversations and insight. ❤

[natelikesfun]

Going off of Trevor's "nepo-baby" thoughts and feeling out of place among other actors, i think it's worth pointing out that Ian and Anthony started Smosh itself at an even younger age with even less youtube/acting experience than he did. He 100 percent fits in perfectly with the rest of the Smosh cast and i think i can speak for the majority of fans in saying we look forward to every video he's in!

[sklarrd]

I always like hearing Damien articulate his feelings on stuff. He does it so well and I find most everything he says so relatable.

[CarrieD.Burgess]

i loved seeing this side of trevor! Proud of him for being so vulnerable, its always fun to get to know the cast better

[AnnaLastname]

I hope trevor knows how much we love him! I’ve been watching him in smosh videos since 2019. it doesn’t feel like he just showed up one day without earning it. he consistently showed the audience how funny and silly he is in this videos. mythical is a great place to showcase his culinary skills, but he needed smosh to show off his comedy skills

[MizuFujimori]

TREVOR WITH THE SHAGGY VOICE, gagged!

[MintHearted]

Damien talking about the different vibes between the old OG Smosh Games cast to how it is currently makes a lot of sense. I was watching some older videos recently and even talking about how the vibes are so different. Not necessarily in a bad way, but you can see how ultra competitive the Games cast was (specifically between Sohinki, Lazercorn, and Jovin). They bounced off each other well, sure. But the atmosphere was definitely more tense and win-driven whereas now it's more chill. Sure they want to win, but it's become a lot more about the group dynamic and having fun then whoever's gonna win. (I think it could also do with the fact that Smosh isn't as punishment heavy anymore if you lose, so there's no need to go all out to win).

It's also really relatable when Damien and Trevor talk about not knowing where to jump in during group settings/conversations. And then Amanda reassures them that they're part of the group and that jumping isn't seen as a take away, that them becoming apart of the group chaos adds to it. It's such good advice to hear, even in just an everyday standpoint.

I love this. (Also Amanda is absolutely gorgeous here, just saying.)

[punkydoo]

I was one of the people who more recently learned about the extent of Damien's voice acting. I always knew he was into it, but I was never aware of what he was in, but now that I know I can watch an anime on Netflix or play Starfield and get to hear Damien's voice, I find it so exciting and it makes me happy for him. I love all of the Smosh cast, getting to see them outside of Smosh doing other projects is like icing on the cake.

[nlwlixb]

As someone who exclusively watched Smosh Games since the Just Dance games, it’s so cool to see how Damien explains the culture shift and how it’s improved for the better. I miss the old SG crew but I’m so glad Damien has blossomed.

[edengirly]

Damien from So random, Trevor from mythical kitchen, and 3 of them from smosh 💗
