Tales from the Chat #17
(with some editing)
Squeak Anon: Also does it bug anyone else that the series is called 'Winnie the Pooh'....
Matthew (Sithking Zero): Yes.
Squeak Anon: But no one ever refers to Pooh as Winnie?
Squeak Anon: Not once.
Squeak Anon: Literally, not even one time.
Hamish Boyle: His name is Winnie
Hamish Boyle: and he is a Pooh.
Hamish Boyle: :/
Squeak Anon: But no one ever calls him Winnie!
Squeak Anon: Not even the Narrator!
Hamish Boyle: I call him Winnie.
Matthew (Sithking Zero): What is a Pooh? The title implies that Winnie is one, but no attempt at definition is attempted.
Matthew (Sithking Zero): Maybe he's like a Middle Earth Wizard.
Hamish Boyle: With a kid-friendly attitude. :D
Matthew (Sithking Zero): Gandalf the Grey.
Matthew (Sithking Zero): Sarumon the White.
Matthew (Sithking Zero): Winnie the Pooh.
Doctor Jam: Child Friendly Golgothan
Hamish Boyle: It could be a title of a magic order, yeah.
Hamish Boyle: Apprentice.
Hamish Boyle: Conjurer.
Hamish Boyle: Master.
Hamish Boyle: Arch-Mage.
Hamish Boyle: Pooh.

Matthew (Sithking Zero): One of the most common slurs against bronies is that they're "Gay."
Matthew (Sithking Zero): 2/3 of my best friends are gay and they don't like the show.
Matthew (Sithking Zero): The other third is Sonicsuns.

Great Dinn: Ah...
Great Dinn: Sorry.
Great Dinn: No help here.
Doctor Jam: "FUCKSAKE HORN OF GONDOR, Y U NO SUMMON USEFUL PEOPLE?!"
The Doctor's Lullaby German Translation
Well I don’t speak a lick’a German, so I can’t account for its accuracy, but a fan recently translated the Doctor’s Lullaby into the language, if anyone’d like to take a crack at singing it, be our guest!
Du kleiner Vogel, am Abendzelt
Über den hellen Gipfeln der Welt
Wo willst du hin? Worauf bist du aus?
Und wann, kommst du, nach Haus?
Oh wann, kommst du, nach...

Anonymous asked: Why?! Why you must always air your episodes at the most inopportune time for me?! You're watching me, aren't you? You're watching my every move and making sure I cant watch your episodes live! Where are you?! I demand to know!
meulinsgaybabbus asked: I'd enter the fanart contest because that plushie is adorable but I don't think my vectors could stand up to some- or most- of the artists out there.
prima-donna-the-pegasus asked: When we send in the fan art, are we supposed to put our address and character of choice in the email, or will you contact the winner after he/she is chosen? Also is there a limit to the amount of entries we can send in?

Hamish Boyle: WHEN THE LADIES SEE ME, THEY SAY
Hamish Boyle: BOW
Hamish Boyle: CHICKA BOW WOW
Matthew (Sithking Zero): When the ladies see me, they make actual conversation instead of making sound effects.
Matthew (Sithking Zero): Winning!
????(crystalsuicune): Same here
Sly Wit: When the ladies see me ...
Sly Wit: ABORT MISSION! YOU'VE BEEN DETECTED!
Matthew (Sithking Zero): They scream in horror
Matthew (Sithking Zero): Before their eyeballs melt
Sly Wit: I know I have a hot body, but it's hardly emitting gamma rays
Squeak Anon: Good lord! That's kinda freaky....
Matthew (Sithking Zero): I was more implying that you were an eldritch abomination...
Matthew (Sithking Zero): But Gamma Rays is a cool idea too.
Sly Wit: And I was twisting your insult into a compliment.
????(crystalsuicune): And there's a possibility that Sly has superpowers now?
Matthew (Sithking Zero): YES
Matthew (Sithking Zero): HE IS
Matthew (Sithking Zero): EXPOSED TO RADIATION MAN
Sly Wit: Wouldn't that just give me cancer?
Matthew (Sithking Zero): HAS ALL THE POWERS OF HAVING HIS HAIR AND TEETH FALL OUT
Sly Wit: Actually, I was bit by a radioactive unconcious person.

Tales from the Chat #13
From our Skype chat, with editing for clarity
Squeak Anon: Ah, I remember when [the word "brony"] was invented, I was in that thread. Oh how the connotation has changed.
Ned (needthistool/askireet): I fracking love you, Sqeak.
Hamish Boyle: Daymn, you is old.
Ned (needthistool/askireet): I fracking love you.
Hamish Boyle: You is, like, two years old.
Neil Rainbow Dash Drawponies: Wait ... what? Please tell this story
Squeak Anon: I'm as old as pony itself.
Squeak Anon: You'd best take heed whippersnappers
Ned (needthistool/askireet): Regale us with the stories of old, Squeak!!!
Hamish Boyle: Share the tale of the dawn.
Hamish Boyle: The dawn of pony.
Squeak Anon: Well, there was this channel called the hub.
Squeak Anon: It was going to take the slot of Discovery Kids on the Television box.
Squeak Anon: There were ads everwhere.
Squeak Anon: And with these ads, came a picture of a rainbow pegasus.
Squeak Anon: At first we all thought 'Oh just another terrible remake'
Squeak Anon: But we all really liked Batman Beyond, so we tuned into the preimre of the station, live on internet forms everywhere.
Squeak Anon: And we saw the first episode.
Squeak Anon: And wanted mre.
Squeak Anon: The end.
Ned (needthistool/askireet): What does that have to do with batman, Squeak?
Ned (needthistool/askireet): Like, it was a remake so you gave FiM a shot?
Squeak Anon: Nope, Batman Beyond was back on the air because of the hub.
Ned (needthistool/askireet): Was it reruns, Squeak?
Squeak Anon: That's why most people were excited.
Squeak Anon: Eyup, just the reruns.
Ned (needthistool/askireet): Damn.
Ned (needthistool/askireet): Yeah. I thought so.
Squeak Anon: it hadn't aired anywhere for like a decade.
Ned (needthistool/askireet): If they made more of that show I'd be pumped.
Ned (needthistool/askireet): We need more futurepunk shit on the air.
Squeak Anon: Since, we were already on the channel, we stayed an the rest was history.
Squeak Anon: So Batman Beyond created bronies.
Ben Ward (Xigger): .......no?
Ned (needthistool/askireet): OMFG. I love you.
Squeak Anon: Okay, I'm being silly. It probably still would've taken off without that.
Squeak Anon: But it helped!
Anonymous asked: Have you guys started working on episode 4 for Doctor Whooves Adventures yet? You ended the last episode with one heck of a cliffhanger.
asksilvershadow asked: To the Ponies in the Box. How excited are you guys for Series 7 of Dr. Who premiering some time next month?
PIAB website demo →
A demo of our new website. What do you think? Neil the Nerd put it together for us. =)
The final version will get rid of the annoying wix ads, of course. We’ll make some other changes too.

Tales from the Chat #12
Squeak Anon: As an aside, I got this comment from a fan of ours of my /fic/ thread, thought you guys might like it
Squeak Anon: "I freaking love your work. The entire crew is top notch. I think its awesome that you can take an idea that at it's heart, you have to admit, is very silly and make it work so well. The show is very funny, but not for the reasons one would think. It's not funny because it's the doctor as a pony, it's funny because of the personalities at work. You play it so straight and it works, that it actually somewhat annoys me. It amazes me that something like that can work so well. I'm invested not because of the core idea but the story behind it. I love the work you and your team (As well as the Jam Jar and his work on the Vinyl Scratch tapes, another idea that at it's heart shouldn't be as gripping as it is.) produce. I look forward to the rest of the series. ... Sorry to kinda geek out on you like that... it's awesome to just have some correspondence with you. I actually considered watching Doctor Who because of Number 12. Your one of the ponies that makes this fan base so awesome, at least to me. ... I feel I'm becoming the gushing fanboy at this point, so I'll take my leave. Bye!"
笨蛋水君(crystalsuicune): Heh,Number 12 (the fic) is also a reason why I started being a Whoovian
Squeak Anon: Squeak Anon blinks
Squeak Anon: Really?! That's awesome!
笨蛋水君(crystalsuicune): That and CT's comic
Squeak Anon: That means we're like your Whovian parents.
Squeak Anon: I am so proud.
Jimmy (Sonicsuns): *hipster glasses* I liked Doctor Who before Squeak made it cool
Great Dinn: That's actually how it worked out for me too. The whole Dr. Whooves idea in general made me go "Dr. Who...hmmmm..." and then I read Number 12, and went "Well, it's on Netflix. Let's do this."
Squeak Anon: Wow, I apparently created a lot of Whovians...
qdBrony: for the record, Number 12 is one reason why I delved even further to ponies
Squeak Anon: And apparently bronies too! This brightens my day considerably.
Jimmy (Sonicsuns): this sounds like a tumblr post...
Squeak Anon: Make it so Mr.Cricket!
Huh, what an odd little rant. Is it just for fun?...
prima-donna-the-pegasus asked: If you ever have another companion for The Doctor besides Twilight Sparkle, will it be another of the mane six or a background pony?
