(Continued from Gog Rest Ye Merry Prospitians)

RJ!: I'm excited, though, because Jit's song...
RJ!: Carol... what was it? Carol Man--here we go.
RJ!: This is pretty cool.
RJ!: Carolmanthetime.
Nick: I haven't heard this one yet.
RJ!: This is another one he sent me last minute.
Nick: Look at me on the music team and haven't heard most of these songs.
Hanna: Oh, fun!
Nick: I'm so cool.
RJ!: A lot, to be fair, a lot of that is because some of these were sent to me over Skype.
RJ!: And were not posted in any shape or form on the Forums before that.
Nick: Yeah, this was a Skype-based album, to be honest. RJ!: It really was!
Nick: A lot of it was sent through Skype and a lot was brainstormed through Skype as well.
Nick: If you guys want to be cool, add us on Skype.
RJ!: Yeah, really.
Nick: Mine is respectively OMGTSN.
Hanna: What?
Nick: I want people to call me and I'll say...
Hanna: Aw nobody be callin' me.
Nick: Aren't you that guy with an excellent guitar?
Nick: And they'll be like, Hell yeah, I was.
Nick: I'll even perform solos for you.
RJ!: So this is...
Nick: A very video game-y vibe.
RJ!: This is a combination of Crystamanthequins, Showtime, and Carol of the Bells.
RJ!: That Jit did.
Nick: I love it.
RJ!: Carolmanthetime.
Hanna: What's it called again?
Nick: Carolmanthetime.
RJ!: I know!
Hanna: That is one hell of a word.
Nick: There's so many remixes of Crystalanthemums, it's ridiculous.
Nick: But nobody outside the music forum knows that.
RJ!: Well, now they do. You just gave that away.
RJ!: But they probably won't ever hear it, sadly.
Nick: It's all good.
RJ!: Maybe they will, who knows.
Nick: They won't care.
Nick: This is commentary for an album that nobody's gonna listen to anyway.
RJ!: This is true, nobody's listening to this commentary.
RJ!: People who are listening to this commentary,
RJ!: Turn off and listen to the actual album, because this is...
RJ!: This is a commentary we're doing at 5...
RJ!: For my time, 5:23 in the morning.
Nick: If you're listening to this right now, switch to disc 2.
Hanna: What made you think this thing was a good idea?
RJ!: Flip side A. Oh, side B.
RJ!: Continue listening.
RJ!: No, this was... I wanted to do an audio commentary.
Nick: Side A has the real songs.
Nick: Side B is the commentary.
Nick: Please flip if you think it's side B.
RJ!: I wanted to do this commentary for people who want to know why we're all angry at-- [ironically unintelligible].
Hanna: Yeah if you're listening to this right now [unintelligible] one. It's Christmas morning right now.
RJ!: I wanted to do this commentary, I was pretty...
Nick: We did this commentary because it's 6 in the morning, we were bored, and you wanted to do the commentary.
RJ!: It's 6 in the morning, in my time it's 5:24 in the morning, and...
RJ!: That's my fault, because 3 hours ago I thought this album was going to be done,
RJ!: and then the commentary was sounding like a much better idea,
RJ!: but then 3 hours ago the album wasn't done,
RJ!: because my computer slowed down, thanks to Audacity and a bunch of other things.
RJ!: I can always blame technological failure for these things.
Nick: Rest in peace, RJ's computer.
Nick: Great song.
RJ!: Now the album fully mastered, and everything's good.
Hanna: This goddamn computer...
RJ!: It's done in time for Christmas.
RJ!: Making it happen.
Hanna: Where doing this man...
