also, i burst out laughing when i forgot i put my name in as "Horse Podcast"

"Please, Mr. Podcast was my father. Call me Horse."

@rockario @Draekos Well, I've seen some horse, so it'd be weird to call it a watch podcast, y'know

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos Yeah, I'm assuming this is a thing where you haven't seen it in a bit, and Dreako is is uninitiated. Which is always a good dynamic

@rockario @Draekos She's seen some horse, but less than I have, and I don't think was quite as deep into the fandom as I was. So this'll be fun.

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos I have also not seen all of the horse cartoon, so when you get to stuff I haven't seen it will be very exciting

@rockario @Draekos There's also parts I haven't seen, so that'll be fun.

@rockario @BestGirlGrace I have, in fact, seen the first like 2 or 3 seasons? But that's ALL. So we'll be getting into new territory for me fairly quickly

@Draekos @BestGirlGrace I think the last thing I remember is the finale that involved the Crystal Kingdom, whatever season that was.

@Draekos @BestGirlGrace Wait, holy crap, the last antagonist I remember is King Sombra. Which means I dropped out some ttime in Season 3.

No wonder the show seems to have a lot of stuff I never saw.

@rockario @Draekos Yeah, there's nine seasons and a movie, most of which I haven't seen.

@BestGirlGrace @rockario @Draekos i don't remember much after the first Cheese Sandwich episode

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos I call the changeling episodes

@junebug @Draekos beloved bug guest stars on cool bug episodes

@BestGirlGrace @junebug *makes notes*

@BestGirlGrace hello I am horse podcast and this is my truck

@BestGirlGrace also, we already told Kos but you need to know that we have been violently speared by your description of Rarity as “a sculpture held together by its own tension”.

@Railrunnah first of all, pffft

second of all, as much as I love Rarity, you can't look at this and tell me it's not her.

@BestGirlGrace you’re extremely not wrong, is the thing

@Railrunnah @BestGirlGrace my gods do you know how hard it was not to reference this when recording?

Fucking going to have to post this on the twitter at some point <_<

@lioness @Draekos We're currently seeking FDA (Foal and Draft Association) approval, but we believe this will be an Acceptable Horse Substitute.

@moonbolt @Draekos The nice thing about podcasts, at the very least, is that they're very patient.

@BestGirlGrace @moonbolt the podcast will be waiting, looming in the internet. Like a beast in the bushes waiting to devour about 1.5 hours of your life (bi?)weekly

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos reinstalled my podcast app for this

ponys ponys ponys ponys ponys

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos omg you're only up to sombra? you gotta see seasons four to nine

@00dani @Draekos We do plan on seeing the entire series eventually.

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos cool

you have cute voice btw

@00dani @Draekos damn right <3

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos it kinda makes sense that the intro describes raising the sun and moon as "unicorn magic" since it is like. a spell you cast with your horn or whatever? it doesn't actually call the princesses themselves "unicorns" i'm pretty sure

i got the impression that any unicorn could theoretically do it provided they're magically capable enough. so like, twilight probably could've done it in season one if she'd known how

i'm gonna probably livetoot listening to your podcast i hope that's okay

@00dani @Draekos hell yeah, feedback

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos those three friends of twilight who don't have names and that we never see again? they do have canonical names actually, and we do see them again

there's an episode in season five where twi goes "wait fuck i outright abandoned my friends from canterlot at the start of this show, i should go apologise" and so naturally said friends feature prominently

it's actually very well written

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos i'm not sure if you're okay with corrections that are technically spoilers,

@00dani @Draekos I mean, I'm sure we'll forget by the time season five rolls around.

@BestGirlGrace @00dani yeah I know I'll forget but I'm also trying to mostly stick to only stuff we've seen so far. Partly because I know my memory of the show is extremely spotty, but also it's more fun that way to me.

Also , yes Grace has a very cute voice!

@Draekos @BestGirlGrace you also have a very cute voice tho

@00dani @Draekos It's true, one of the best parts of editing the podcast is listening to my darling cohost.

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos finally got around to continuing to listen

pinkie did not break into twilight's house to throw the party actually?

because um

twilight lives in a public library

also i think the grey postal worker horse should clearly be named "bubble wrap" tbh,, i don't particularly like the name you use in the podcast either for similar reasons to the other bad names ​

@00dani @Draekos That's a fair horse name point, but I would argue that you're typically not allowed to go into the library while the librarian isn't there

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos presumably during the day before twilight finally got there, the library was open, tho

cuz like. the library has been here for years, and twi only just rolled into town,

i have no idea where the librarian who used to run the place went however

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos i mean presumably the previous librarian was still the current librarian during the first episode, since twi wasn't planning to move permanently? so they'd still have been running the library normally for at least that one day

but we don't ever see them and then twilight is the librarian instead ​

@00dani @BestGirlGrace I would assume it's a highlander situation?

@00dani @BestGirlGrace @Draekos imagine being a librarian and getting a letter from celestia telling you youll get a hundred thousand bits if you move out right now

@00dani @BestGirlGrace @Draekos anyway the reason pinkie pie was allowed in to throw a party is because she's pinkie pie and what are you going to do, *stop* pinkie pie?
a much more fun thing to note is that pinkie pie was never actually told they were going to be in the library

@00dani @BestGirlGrace h-HEY

@BestGirlGrace @Draekos oh gosh the dashie face meme! it's not from episode one

it's actually from episode four, applebuck season, when everyone is interrupting twilight's big speech?

the animators ended up doing it again in later episodes when it became wildly popular, but it's definitely from s1e4

@00dani @BestGirlGrace I am unsure if I should take notes or just enjoy my dumbass horsebrain :3
