Prank call shows, with friends

On today's show, I mostly called zillow real estate listings to ask them if they got the packages I had delivered to their home, and to please not open them. Some people REALLY did not like that, like this guy who got REALLY upset and accused me of trespassing, when all i was doing was just passing. 01:34:45

I also played a clip from earlier in the day where someone called me looking to buy bunnie meat, and I tried to upsell them on human meat instead.

@criefaux, @matthew4 and @gretagarbage also joined later for some collaborative calls later with line echoes and a new one where we coach each other through normal interactions, and it was hilarious.

Reminder to send me any clips you want featured in our upcoming Prankaversary Show, celebrating 2 years of silly fun here.

No show Monday night , so I did a pre-makeup tonight and was joined by @criefaux, @gretagarbage, @jesuspenus, @matthew4, and @doglettuce:

• Called hotels to complain that they had an unusually high amount of trash and it was making dumpster diving in their bin very inconvenient.
• Called hotels speaking perfect English and asking a (bad) translator to help translate what the front desk was saying since English wasn't our first language.
• Called hotels with @criefaux as our producer to tell them we were performing an acting scene with corporate's permission, and had the director @gretagarbage keep cutting in giving acting pointers. For example this clip where we got someone to play along with our scene: 01:54:00
  This was SO MUCH FUN.

Thanks to

• @animegurl304 and @parkman for sharing numbers tonight
• @kanyeti and @bonescarfer for becoming MEAT MEMBERS (patreons).

What a fun Saturday night! First @phonelosers hosted @theCallective and that had an amazing turnout. Then I went and did a variety show, featuring some prank calls, an appearance of Fraink, and most fun: some hilarious AI generated songs. We made a bunch live songs during the show using Suno.com, with help from chat.

Here are some of my favorites created last night:

• An epic broadway musical number about Angela Lansbury ripping a fart while on stage (kudos @gretagarbage)
  https://suno.com/song/329a4f2a-3570-47df-b3bc-9ee7607f9595?sh=myXOapsgvwa1ZBfM

• A heavy metal song about a 7/11 employee refilling the hot dog station (kudos @mrsmalls and @criefaux) https://suno.com/song/81be74c5-278c-475d-9d1a-2ebe5c16c00e?sh=ze4VCSxhq0n4kEA0

• A 1990s rap song about airplane safety instructions (kudos @iregretjumping)
  https://suno.com/song/dc555e7d-822e-4651-a451-56965b01a657?sh=69UA4x0DvI9SAEVD

• A bluegrass country song about pushing grandma down the stairs:

I plan to do these regularly! This was so much fun.

Thanks to @andyanderson and @gretagarbage for hanging out on air during the show. And thanks to @iregretjumping for hogging all of tonight's kudos awards. So selfish.

Oh boy, this was a silly fun show and I had a really good time. We gaslamped front-desks into answering questions about the vegan, gluten-free and kosher room options. I also did one of @matthew4's aardvark calls.

We got at least two "nobody ever asked me that question before", two people to blow into their handset to help check the room Ph levels, and one very angry front desk clerk who cursed me out when I tried to reach the hotel Rabbi.

Lots of other stuff happened too, including looking for the diabetic parking spots and demanding tips from the rooms we busked with a banjo in front of.

Thanks to:

• @criefaux and @gretagarbage for joining in the tomfoolery
• @namesakejake for the fantastic gifs uploaded to tenor
• everyone in chat for helping with the silly ideas

On this show we call hotels from the Diaper Derby to bet on Baby Battles in their parking lot. We also call places claiming that someone just Chris Hansened us in a hotel room while we were trying to meet someone from the internet. Thanks to @despicabledogs, @icecat, and @gretagarbage for joining for the fun and for everyone in the chat who suggested ridiculously funny wordplay to use.

I have been feinding to do a show for the last few days, and couldn't wait till Sunday. So I did a show on Friday, and I was joined by my friends Devon Anustart, GretaGarbage, CrieFaux, and DespicableDogs. I think that's all of 'em. I mean people who were on the show. I have more friends than that. But if I didn't and those were my only friends…those are some pretty solid people to be friends with IMO.

In this episode I start pranks quickly as the Zoo Crew and Devon saw the prank symbol in the sky. We start by calling some tradios and leave a lot of silly voicemails. We ask people about uncle kisses and what those feel like. Then we try to get more sugar for devon, We do round robin with calls and have some giggles and switch over to hotels. CrieFaux tries to buy a car in a hotel parking lot, we call movie theaters and IceCat gets replaced. A guy asks us why we are pranking him and if we are lacking in chicks to hang out with. We talk to a hotel guy who give us some good stuff to clip (Tub Guy, Shower Dudes), We have some fun with Voicemod (Deep Steve, Baby Greta, and whatever amazing character CrieFaux does). Devon gets stined and stares off into space, and Walter barks! IceCat never lets go and talks to Shrek. Make sure to listen all the way through so you don't miss CrieFaux's IceCat-Bot (Clap Clap Clap).

Alternate Titles for this show: Clap Clap Clap, Friday Night Prank Down (Feat. Devon And The Zoo Crew)

@GretaGarbage, @Devonanustart, @IceCat, @DespicableDogs, @MrBiggs

Gather 'round my beautiful kitten friends, I have a story to tell you. See there was once this guy named IceCat, who stumbled upon a reddit posting made by RBCP advisng of a live prank call show taking place on a site called Prankcast on the holiest of days, 4/20/2022. He joined the chat and listened to #DevonAnustart and, as mots prankcast listeners do, had a BLAST. The next night he listend to another live who by someone named #Peebola who made a man "shoot ropes". From then on he was hooked. four short months later IceCat, having been encouraged and assisted by Devon and Peebola, went live with a show of his own. A music show to be exact! He made playlists around the pranks of the friends he met on prankcast, he made playlists for getting the morning started, to help you fall asleep, and everything in between.

He continued this nearly every week for a little over 6 months, in hope that it brought his new friends joy and happiness in their day, in the same way the hosts on prankcast did for him. Ice built up an audience of insanely awesome people who made him feel very much a part of the community and loved. During this time he had become very good friends with a newer member by the name of despicabledogs, they had a lot in common and bonded over their love of weed, wresteling, writing, and of coures prank calls. They began helping each other write goofy commercials and make show drops. They became friends with other hosts, vetren community members, and up and commers like GretaGarbage, Dnella Doodle, Criefaux and DogLettuce. As it turned out, this little group, shared a like minded comedic tone that and had a sense of wildly creative silliness and geled very well together.

Around this time IceCat was doing some information gathering from his "prank mom's" and other well-seasoned hosts, about the possibility of doing pranks on his own, but believe it or not, the blue kitty you now know, was very very affraid of confrontation and not very confident in his ability to make calls, none the less make funny calls. IceCat was, and still is for the most part, a very shy person. It was suggested to him, that he should try to join do a call with the brilliantly funny WastedMemory and Dragonmere. One fateful night IceCat finally decided to take the plunge, and try to do a call. I can tell you that IceCat was shaking in his cowboy boots as that phone was ringing. Ice asked a hotel if he could put on stilts and dress as Uncle Sam while lighting fireworks and giving people hot dogs as a way to continue with the 4th of July holiday. Other than the fact that Ice was a bit nervous sounding, the call wasn't half bad.

While it was still almost another 7 months until IceCat would do his first actual prank call show, he continued on with his music show and writing with DespicableDogs and the rest of the gang. As time went on IceCat couldn't forget the rush he had when making that call. IceCat did a few guest spots on various shows. He did a secret show with Devon , Synthead, and LaughingBear, did a few fun pranks with Synthead on the Bass Bot Show, and even co-hosted a Crimbus slot with GretaGarbage and MolinWolf. Icecat started paying more attention to the nuances of making a successful prank call and taking notes from various hosts across prankcast. He got to know quiet a few of the hosts and vetern member of the community and learned a lot about the prank scene. He was a dry sponge soaking up all that prank juice!

It was mid march, 2023, and IceCat had done his researching, discussing, and planning long enough. He and DespicableDogs, with the help and and encouragement from the community, decided that they both were gonna start making calls. IceCat was still very unsure of when he would do his first show with calls, do you want to know what made IceCat jump in that dumpster and start popping off? It was listening to DespicableDogs do his first show. IceCat had been helping DespicableDogs get his show set up (showing dogs what programs he used, sending dogs wierd clips and drops, sound testing etc.). Despicables show was the final push that IceCat needed. On 3/14/2023, IceCat debuted his the first prank phone call episode of The Chill. This is a recording of that show.

That's it. There's no more story, because you pretty much know the rest. An' if ya don't, feel free to ask, IceCat has come along way in a year. Not just in a sense of doing a comedy show, but also made some giant strides personally. I know that if he was telling this story, he'd tell every single one of you, how much this community means to him, and that he loves everyone he has met along the way.

from the back of the room IceCat's voice is heard

"I am telling this story, and also, old man story mode activated!"

Seriously though, thank you all for everyting <3<3<3 Meow!

@JesusPenus has described the Milk Box Show as a "fun lab experiment in making prank calls and performing social engineering." And yeah, tonight's was definitely one of those shows.

• What happens when you call regular businesses and have a bunch of people speak simultaneously, as if they are a single person?
• Or calling a business and swapping places with a stranger every time a new line is said, without breaking character or the previous narrative?
• Also featuring some regular prank calls to room 117, where we ask the guy staying inside to stop jumping on the bed and singing the no more monkeys song. (Turns out he was in a wheelchair, but honestly that makes bed jumping even more dangerous so I'm glad we intervened.)
• And more!

Huge thanks to:

• @Bread336, @bojack, @devonanustart, @icecat, @Matthew4 and @gretagarbage for joining as guests tonight.
• @MCPaperclip for the show title!
• @AndyAnderson for the intro clip, and for re-inspiring the show theme tonight
• @GreatBigPranks crew for the original premise
• @RevKev, @ReaperDiamondT, @Devonanustart, @Bojack, @Matthew4 for sending in numbers
• All the prankcast patreons!

IceCat hosts a prank call mash up of calls from GretaGarbage, DogLettuce, DespicableDogs, CrieFaux, and himself, IceCat! First there is an hour of fun critter themed music and instructional mouth noises, then the Zoo Crews first episode. It's an audio collage of clips and calls that are sure to leave you giggling. Then after the show IceCat opens the mumble server and are joined by GretaGarbage, Phynch, Matthew 4, Criefaux, Gordo, and DevonAnustart for more hijinks.

On this unscheduled show, we complain about the awful smell from the eggs we're cooking in our room. And also try to make a bunch of milk on demand deliveries to people's lobby.

Thanks to @GretaGarbage for joining the show!
