The charity stream mentioned in this video already happened, Drawfee was able to raise over $160.000 to PCRF. Also, this game is out already! This is not a sponsored stream but the devs did give Jacob and Julia an early code and they both enjoyed it a lot, so buy it if it looks appealing and you can afford it. Secret Sleepover Society is every Sunday & Wednesday at 9 pm ET www.twitch.tv/secretsleepoversociety
I grew up on the Olympic Peninsula, and I gotta say. The nailed it 100%. The rainy vibe, the misty forest, the hills and cliffs, the hovering clouds of lightning, the floating magnet-bots. Warms my soul to see my homeland so faithfully recreated.
I love that Julia had such aremarkably cool heirloom to show off in response to a request to see spoons (Also love that this community's so generous and good to each other ^_^)
Sappy comment ahead. You've been warned. I wanted to thank you, SecretSleepoverSociety, for your streams :) They're always such a fun and welcoming vibe. Whether it's silly bits, Jacob having a hot-take (that I often agree with), Julia making a joke that Jacob refuses to laugh at, or y'all talking about your lives and the things you're up to. It's nice having a temporary reprieve from life while watching your stream. I imagine many viewers feel similarly and that's why you've drawn this audience. Congratulations on the 100K RU-vid subscribers. And thank you Khaz for your work. I'm a VOD baby so this channel is a godsend. Your thumbnails are fantastic! They're often a lil treat just on their own. You are SO appreciated.
i second this comment. i have ocd and bad anxiety and i think watching sss/drawfee is, like, one of the only times i feel no anxiety. they’re so welcoming
50:58 My dad’s dad lived with us growing up so he was the default Grampy, but my mum’s dad was a beef farmer so we called him “Grampy With The Cows” to differentiate them. Now my siblings and I are all in our 30s, Grampy passed away over a decade ago, my mum’s dad sold the farm to a cousin and moved into a retirement home, and we STILL call him “Grampy With The Cows” 😂
I work security in a residential facility I heard a strange sound. Then Jacob said "what am I hearing" "what are these noises ." I went to go to investigate I saw it's just the neighbor starting up their work dump truck. Don't worry Jacob. Everything is fine.
There is something so funny to me about pulling the married couple move of lightly bickering about directions while investigating paranormal activity. I feel like this is the only way to play this game now.😊 😂
As a little Georgia boy myself, I can say some people around here (especially rural Georgians) do use ‘drug’ as a past tense form of ‘drag’. Like ‘you drug me all over town.’
🙋 not just georgia! i could definitely hear my OK relatives say something like "he drug that in here and left it in the floor, in back of the couch, just everywhere!"
Is that not normal American English?! My parents are midwesterners and I grew up all up and down the east coast and have spent my adult life on the west coast. And as a lover of languages, I had no clue drug was not considered the standard American past tense of the verb “drag”

studies show that audiobooks and books are stored in our memories in the exact same way. the same study also showed that tabletop roleplaying games create memories the same way that lived experiences do.
The TTRPG thing makes total sense to me. I have genuine emotions tied to the memories like real ones - both positive and negative memories. And when I think back on some of the scenarios it’s very fondly. Some are just small moments like spending three in-game days to help rebuild a dock for an old blind man who had also been abandoned by his people like my character had. It was just very fulfilling to go and buy lumber, roll to see how well we could build the dock, and then add small things to make his life better. My character even wrote letters for his caretaker to read to him every now and again and my wonderful DM would write out letters to give to me in return. Sometimes the fantasy life is just knowing you have the time, money, energy and skill to help someone out.
Well, considering our brains cannot acctually differenciate between emotionally caused pain and physically caused pain (or at least, we cannot differenciate without a lot of other input) that makes perfect sense. Now if only that could explain why I cannot handle audiobooks - I have to pause constantly, keep losing focus, and I'm a practiced speed reader, know how to leisurely enjoy a book I want at a slower pace, and can get into about anything decent I've ever read. If they're saved the same, why do I not recall squat from any audiobook? Probably has something to do with something else about my processing.
@@Lunar_Blacksmith Your DM sounds like a really nice person. I'm glad you have such good experiences with it. TTRPGs can be as real, and healing I find as most anything - It requires someone taking the time to be in a thing with you, whether from one's real life or imagined, and that, that's real as anything.
@@M.Datura He was a very good DM! He had plans and plots that he had in the background and kept things moving, but it was a homebrew and he allowed us to just…have moments. It was very therapeutic and helping my character heal helped me to heal some parts of myself. Having an outlet of being able to turn into a werewolf or blast a huge fire wall while also helping a blind old man on the side was super fulfilling. We unfortunately had to end the campaign after a year because my DM got divorced and had to move back with his parents. They live in an area with bad internet so we couldn’t play anymore. Very sad because I LOVE that character and had a really good time in that campaign. I cried real tears in it and had truly amazing impromptu speeches and one liners. I felt like I could be the man I always wanted to be and that was awesome.
@@Lunar_Blacksmith That's sad. I hope you can find a way to play together again later, and that he finds other people to play with since he clearly creates such a nice atmosphere. Too few nice DMs out there, would be a loss for the community as a whole if he couldn't play if he wanted to, as a player or a DM. I bet you're probably a pretty good person to play with too; those who aren't wouldn't have had those moments even if they were forced on them. Here's to more good D&D!
This came at the perfect time! Its been a horrible couple of days, my dogs eye was removed yesterday due to glaucoma. Im just happy to still have the little guy but its hard right now. Its nice to have this to watch while i sit with him and hold ice to his head.. Thank you ❤
Seeing you handle that spoon and thinking holy cow wrap that up and wash your hands, both of you. If you’re dealing with a pewter heirloom, you’re most likely dealing with a 70% tin 30% lead alloy.
Thankfully, the lead in pewter has to be exposed to acidity before it leaks too much. That's partially why they thought Tomatoes were poisonous because they'd eat them off pewter and get super lead poisoning.
@@dalekjast5 Yep! But not knowing its history and what it has been used for in the past, which pots it has stirred, etc. Just better safe than sorry. It’s a beautiful display piece, but definitley not one you wanna just be willy-nilly about.
@@redferriswheelThe lead is basically only active as long as the acid is active, since it needs to be actively leeched from the pewter or to have been abraded enough to create dust. Since Jacob explicitly mentions beforehand that she had to unwrap it from cloth, and Julia calls it a family heirloom, that would mean it was probably cleaned. It would be free of acid and the cloth wrapping would prevent abrasion. Julia is smart. She says her family told her about the ladle. All evidence says it's being kept out of use. You won't get lead poisoning from holding a pewter object one time.
@@DragonbIaze052 You definitely won't. A lot of jewellery is made of pewter to this day. (though I think most of it is lead free now anyway) I appreciate the proper explanation though! I tend to doubt what I think often, and stuff like this is so helpful for many more than me I suspect. ^^
this IMMEDIATELY looks like a good time. perfect for day three of my DIY project. also!!!!! it's so cool how much money they were able to raise!!!!!! I'm so happy i could be a part of it, good job everyone 💛
I would think "second aid" would be going to the damn hospital, since "first aid" is the immediate assistance given at the scene of injury, either because injuries/conditions are minor enough not to need further care or to bridge the gap to further treatment at a medical facility ...
1:56:43 I was kinda confused about the “I wish station wagons would come back” comment by Julia because where I live they never went away. That led me down into a rabbit hole about the American automobile industry and boy, is it messed up 😬
A slang term for the pink vehicle repair putty is bog. Tangent: I just learned that the British term "bog off" is a euphemism for another -off term beginning with B, and they also use it as an acronym for "Buy One, Get One For Free".
never been more excited and compelled to comment than hearing jacob say its not chili without beans THANK you man. anyways my family eats chili all beans no meat bc 1 my sisters been vegetarian for over a decade and 2 meats expensive and ive gotten too many people saying its not chili. ill die on this hill and bring all the bean deniers with me
Are they going to continue this game? I'm pretty far in and I'm having lots of fun. Side note, it's so frustrating when streamers miss the super obvious things right on screen and never take a few seconds to figure everything out.
I had this conversation with my wife today, re: books vs. audio book. We came down with reading and listening are different things. You get the same information, but in different ways. I said "Reading, if you can read fast, is superior. As a person who can't read fast, audio books is superior. And. There are books (like Name of the Wind) where writing and speaking are fundamentally different means of narrative conveyance, and I wanted to both listen to it, and read it after."
I just wanna mark myself as one of the people who _won't_ owe Jacob an apology, because I do think Miquella is Messmer - Chat, keep in mind that Miquella's whole deal is charming people, and putting 'em to sleep, _i.e._ hypnotisation, _i.e._ *mesmerise.* Even if he isn't actually, physically Miquella, I'm guessing that it might be an evolution of Marika/Radagon's split situation, especially since Miquella has light hair (like Marika), while Messmer has red hair (like Radagon).
The first song when Jacob turned on the radio in the last part of the stream showed up as being by Shell in the Pit, and I was losing my mind trying to figure out where I remember that name from, and I finally remembered! He’s the guy who did the music for Wandersong! 😃
I loved the vibes of this stream so much! I think the audiobook take was a little clumsy. Even though it was in regards to semantics it still had an unfortunate tone. Most of my family is dyslexic, my little brother and father in particular are very challenged when it comes to reading most things. When we discovered that dyslexia was in the family, my siblings were granted free access to a library of audiobooks (I can’t remember which one sorry lol) my little brother especially loved it as he could finally enjoy books without being dependent on another person to read to him. Even so he still felt less than since his classmates gave him a hard time about how he wasn’t “reading”. My parents worked hard on establishing with him that it still took focus and dedication to read the book even in audio form. That’s why I believe, even in a semantics context, the hot take is ableist even though it clearly isn’t coming from a place of malice. I just wanted to my say my piece based on what I’ve seen from the people closest to me. I still loved the stream and I sincerely hope that y’all play this game again!
Yeah! Hope you don't mind me adding a side note but I also thought about how when someone in the room reads a book to another person, nobody (as far as I've encountered) says that's now no longer a book. I feel like the title "audio book" is just telling you it's that -- the experience of somebody reading you a book! So it is a book. (Also even aside from that... language is ever evolving and dictionary definitions aren't static things and don't dictate the language-- just help to explain it. If something is consistently called something, that is now what it is) I also really hope they play again though, this was so cool
I agree that it's clumsy, but also, I see the "Jacob hot-take comedy" part of it - what I've come to accept as him just saying whatever's on his brain. I don't think he meant that audiobooks don't fill the same space in most ways - he has before said he listens to audio books a lot, and I think has referred to books he has "consumed" as audiobooks as "books he has read" before. I think, genuinely, he was simply talking semantics about the format - an audiobook is an audiobook, and a book is a book only. I don't think he's being ableist, though I get why it can seem that way; I think it got phrased weird and he wasn't able to portray that he was talking more about media formats than anything else. Essentially, different aspects of the definition - and he it seems from his looking up the definition of a book was referring to specifically the semantic limits of the book media. To me it's almost a linguistic thing. The issue is exactly the same as in a lot of other situations where it shows to me how linguistically "inclined" he is, which also overlaps with my personal experience of being very linguistically focused on occasion myself. It seemed like he was saying that an audiobook is not a "has many pages between covers, put on a shelf"-book. He even did the gesture of a physical book opening. I do also categorise audiobooks as books because to me the importance of a book isn't it's medium but it's contents and my partner is really dyslexic too, though they are not the same media, which is perfectly fine.
When you started talking about Hercules "Going the Distance" I was in the middle of working on a logo that says "Going the Distance" and you freaked me out o___o
Then there's Julia who pays attention to or explores every little thing which also often causes her to miss big things or take forever to get to something 😅 a lot of times both methods are fun but can be annoying or frustrating.
hearing about the whole instability causing everything to constantly change makes me wonder, are the route you drive procedurally generated? or are they always the same, and thats just lore stuff?
The game procedurally generates the environments, buildings, resources, and obstacles that you encounter in every zone. So there is a gameplay aspect to the whole instability causing things to change.
@@pixelpantsplayBeans were added to chili as filler for when meat was too expensive to make a full chili from. Beans in chili is like lettuce on a burger: it's good, but taking it away doesn't fundamentally change what the dish is.
@@DragonbIaze052 You could argue that it’s more like a burger without a bun. Is that the original? Yes. Do some regions still do it like that? Yes. Is it weird? Absolutely.
love julia pointing out Oppy's VA and comparing her to Eartha Kitt- i told my friends she gives me "old Hollywood" vibes, voice-wise, so it's cool to see somebody else who gets the same feeling!
I found this game like two days ago as someone who's SO bad at folllowing the livestreams, and my thought process the whole time was just "Oh I NEED to see this game on SSS." Never would have guessed they were (quite literally) way ahead of me haha
Late but Gateway computers were associated with cows because of school COWs. Computers On Wheels. At least that's what they were at my middle school. Just saw the comment from Crowscrypt. Never knew that about the founder and that makes the concept/acronym of COWs even funnier to me now lol
jacob: reads objective telling him to search dumpster for something to help him trasnfer items from storage to car dumpster: here is a transfer case jacob: ...... what is this for? me moment
Ngl Jacob your chili take is arguably the most common chili take there is. It’s not chili without beans. What’s a hot take on chili is how much beans you add in. Also that’s an awesome spoon Julia.
I will come back and apologize if wrong. But miquella has blonde/white hair, and red hair is linked to radagan. Mohg wouldn't have made miquella's hair red. I think messmer is rykard's spawn cus red hair lineage, fire and snake
I think you're picking on the wrong semantic with Audiobooks, because audiobooks are primarily books that already exist and have been printed in audio format. Percy Jackson can't suddenly go from being a book and not being a book just because there's an audio version of it. Saying audio books aren't reading is one thing, because that has to do with the action of reading, but audiobooks are a form of consuming an already written media, like text to speech, and it's existence doesn't make the written media no longer written. Like is a book not a book anymore if a teacher is reading it out loud to a class or a parent to a child?
He literally says "It's the same content but a different thing." Not it's no longer a book. People need to get off their high horses about this book thing. I wonder why it struck such a chord with people. It's like that guy who calls everything gay as an insult who is actually gay. It's like the people who fight whether it's a book feel bad listening to audio books. It doesn't matter.
@@TheCookieCrispbecause the long running association of books with “proper and superior” forms of media (despite how stupid that is) people who prefer audiobooks, or have an easier time with them feel that by stripping their title of book, people are calling it a lesser form of media Personally, I like to listen and read along with audiobooks because I often feel more engaged when I can hear the voices of a story, and because I often skip lines/pages accidentally. It’s still just a worthy a piece of media no matter how you consume it, but when people associate “book” with better, then saying audiobooks aren’t books, it’s sort of saying audiobooks aren’t as good
6:20 So what do you think about visual novels like Cinderella Phenomenon or Steam Prison? Would it be considered a book or not? You're still reading, but you're given choices to make as well, but you also have the background audio/music as well as sometimes voice-acting and the visual art to look at as well, but they're still technically novels, right?
1:50:25 lmaoo what ? I'm 22 and i had to roll up the window manually in my parents cars when i was little (and i still do in the back of our current car which is like 15yo, how is it wild to some people??? Jjddjdjd like that's pretty basic thing
ive rewatched this vod about six times since it came out, would love to see more of this game since i can't play it bc i have neither a playstation nor a pc!
