Transcript
[Winds blowing in the background, punctuated by a movie trailer-esque boom]
Julia (epic trailer voice): There’s the winds of change blowing across the landscape.
Brandon (epic trailer voice): A big change, a super big change, like a super, duper big change.
[Another movie trailer-esque boom]
Amanda (epic trailer voice): But the only way to harness those winds of change is through a campaign.
Eric (epic trailer voice): But how can a campaign change things? Well, what if we take away the one thing you hate the most?
[Another movie trailer-esque boom, winds and suspenseful music escalating]
Julia, epic: That’s right. The biggest problem in our world right now… is that there aren’t weekly episodes of Join the Party.
[Final boom! Patriotic flute and drum music begins]
Amanda: We can do something about that! Together! What if I told you that Join the Party could go weekly?
Eric: I’d say, whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? (giggles at own joke)
Amanda: It’s true. And all we need is 500 patrons on the Join the Party patreon.
Eric: I’d say, whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? That’s iiiiiiit?
Amanda: That’s it, screechy owl!
[Eric laughs]
If we get 500 patrons, Join the Party can go weekly!
Julia: That’s our campaign. The Campaign to End Bad Tuesdays.
Brandon: Well, hold on a second, friend. What’s a Bad Tuesday?
Amanda: Glad you asked, bud. A Bad Tuesday is when there’s a Tuesday without a new episode of Join the Party, the podcast that currently comes out three of every four Tuesdays. But if we get 500 patrons, that won’t happen anymore. We will go weekly with all that good games content you love.
Brandon: Oh, now I get it! Just go to patreon.com/jointheparty pod and become a patron! And if you’re already a part of the JTP patreon, get someone else to join!
Amanda: You get so much if you become a patron: discord access, Party Planning episodes, playlists, early episodes, and a whole lot more!
Brandon: Can I see your creative work from like five years ago?
Amanda (anxiously chuckling): Heh, you bet! That’s the terrifying ordeal of being known, but we’ll do it for you, no matter how haunting the human experience of creating things on the Internet can be!
Eric (as a precocious child): Excuse me, I’m a concerned citizen and I really want there to be more than 500 patrons on our patreon. What happens if we go above that?
Julia: I’ll tell you, man pretending to be a small child. If we hit 550, we’re doing a Patron Patry, a live show just for people who are a part of the Join the Party patreon.
Eric: Wowee, I’m overcome, as a man pretending to be a baby.
[Music drops off, replaced by Morse Code beeps]
Julia: Wait, I’m getting some breaking news. (speaking into her earpiece) Uh huh, yes, wow, ok, thank you.
[Victorious horns music]
The news says we have a brand new merch item to celebrate the beginning of the Campaign to End Bad Tuesdays.
Brandon: Wow, it’s really neat that Samuel News, the creator of all news, calls you directly your cell phone, Julia!
Julia: It is!
Amanda: Wait, what did Mr. News say? I have to know, I have to!
[Victorious horns music cuts]
Eric: Um, excuse me. It says “I gotsta know” in your line. I’d really appreciate…
[Brandon and Julia giggle]
Amanda: It also says, “What did Mr. News--”
[Brandon and Julia laughs harder]
Eric: I understand that, but one was a typo and one was, you need to say, “I gotsta know!”
I GOTSTA KNOW! I GOTSTA!
[Victorious horns return]
Amanda: Wait, what did Mr. News say? I gotsta know, I gotsta!
Julia: In honor of the month of January, the JTP store has January dice!
ALL: WOAAAAH!!
[Brandon says, “whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat” longer than anyone else, Eric giggles]
Eric: January, like the rabbit from Join the Party Campaign 2? That sounds incredible.
Brandon: Wowee, I can roll badly with another set of JTP dice!
[Everyone laughs a longer time than you’d expect as Brandon yells, “Hey, shut up!”]
Eric: I bet if you went to the merch store, jointhepartypod.com/merch, you could get January dice right now. And if you need more incentive to become a patron other than this entire campaign thing we’re doing right now, all $10 patrons, new or old, get a 10% discount on JTP merch, including the January Dice.
Brandon: This is too much to handle. I need to sit down. Whew. But while I’m sitting down, I might as well just go to patreon.com/jointhepartypod to become a patron and get JTP to 500.
Julia: Or 550! Or beyond!
Eric (as a precocious child): Wowwee, thanks Join the Pawtty. You’re my hewwwo.
Amanda: We can end Bad Tuesdays. But we need your Patreon support to make it happen…
All except Julia: Now!
Julia: I was taking a sip of tea so I’m just gonna… NOW!
[Eric laughs, as a scientific tune plays]
Amanda (sped up 2x): Paid for by the people for the Campaign to End Bad Tuesdays, a group totally unaffiliated with the hosts of Join the Party. Though users of this campaign may experience less side effects than with other podcasts, side effects may still include dry mouth, rolling incredibly poorly, itchiness, confusion, Italian emergencies, critical hits, temporary euphoria, acute time shark and a need to tell everyone about Join the Party, the best D&D show in the world. Seriously, Chad and January are adorable and now there’s dice of them. That’s incredible. Eric wrote this script and he would really like if you told him he did a good job. Please consult your nearest podcaster if you’re itchy for more than 24 hours because it might be a ghost
[Music cuts away, as everyone pulls away from their microphones as if this is “off-camera”]
Brandon (trying to hide his obvious disappointment that we were terrible): Alright, cut. That was… that was certainly a take, guys. That was… pretty good.
Eric: I thought that was pretty good.
Amanda: Can I take my 10 yet?
Brandon: No. We’re gonna have to do several more takes.
Julia: Yeah… Eric, is that baby ok?
Eric: Oh! Yeah. I’m friends with that baby. That baby has to go to school though. They shouldn’t be on this film set. Hold on, I have to take the baby away.
Amanda: Oh no.
Julia: Now we have to get a teacher for the film set for the baby. It’s gonna be a whole thing.
Amanda: The baby also requires healthcare, it’s like, ugh, god.
Eric: The baby also has, in their rider, they need fresh pomelos all the time. I don’t even know what a pomelo is.
[A beat, then serious piano music with everyone back “on.”]
Julia: Hey, I’m Julia Schfini, from the podcast Join the Party. And I’m gonna turn my chair around because this is the part where I’m doing the straight-talking.
Eric: And I’m Eric Silver, from TV’s Join the Party. In fact, we’re all going to turn our chairs around. Because we’re straight-talking to you.
Brandon: Hi, I’m Brampton, star of stage and screen of Join the Party. We all had a lot of fun here today, but now is time for some straight talk
Amanda: Amanda here, I play Amanda on America’s favorite show on the USA network, Join the Party, Characters Welcome. Go to patreon.com/jointhepartypod and become a patron. If we hit 500 patrons, Join the Party is going weekly! If we hit 550, we’ll do Patron Patry, a free live show just for patrons with fun games, live Q&A and more!
Julia: If you go to the merch store right now, you can get January dice! Like Chad dice, but with January the Rabbit on it. And If you’re a 10 dollar patron, you can get 10% off all merch, physical and digital, including the brand-new January dice.
Brandon: Bad Tuesdays can only go away if we all do it together. So the Campaign for No Bad Tuesdays staaaaaaaaarts…
ALL: NOW!
Eric (as a precocious child): Wow, podcasts can really change the world for me, a man acting like a baby.
Julia: Can we get a teacher for this baby?
Eric (as a precocious child): Where are my pomewwos?
Brandon (yelling off-mic): Can we get this baby off-set? Come on!
