Outlines
😺 Cat-Themed Life Hacks for Joobie
The video begins with the hosts discussing their cat Joobie's lack of interest in their previous high-effort projects. They decide to try more accessible cat-related life hacks. The first life hack involves creating a sleeping spot for Joobie by combining her love for shirts and boxes into a 'shirt tent'. They use wire hangers, a cardboard base, and one of their shirts to construct it. After some adjustments and the use of a hot glue gun, they manage to finish the tent. Joobie is initially uninterested but eventually shows some curiosity.
😸 Testing the Catnip-Infused Shirt Tent
The hosts introduce a catnip spray to encourage Joobie to try the shirt tent. Initially hesitant, Joobie eventually enters the tent, and the hosts express their excitement as she seems to enjoy it. They also discuss the possibility of using the tent as a toy and praise the life hack for its cost-effectiveness and cleverness. The video then transitions into a different life hack involving a kitchen glove and hot glue to create a grooming tool for cats.
😾 The Kitchen Glove Grooming Life Hack
The hosts attempt to create a cat grooming tool using a kitchen glove and hot glue. They apply hot glue to the glove to mimic the bristles of a brush. After letting it dry, they test the glove on Joobie. The results are mixed; while the glove picks up some fur, it's not as effective as a proper cat brush. The hosts compare the effectiveness of the glued glove to a silicone brush and find the latter to be significantly better. Despite the limited success, they acknowledge that the glove somewhat worked and was a quick project.
😼 Creating a Portable Cat Pouch from a Sweatshirt
The next life hack involves repurposing an old sweatshirt into a cat pouch for carrying Joobie around. The hosts make a semicircle cut-out from a microfiber fabric and sew it onto the sweatshirt, leaving an opening at the top. They test the pouch with Joobie, who is skeptical at first but eventually settles in. The pouch is deemed a success for its ability to keep Joobie cozy and the host's hands free. However, the large size of the pouch and Joobie's initial reluctance add a humorous touch to the segment.
😹 The Failed Cat Pouch and the Introduction of Squarespace
The hosts face disappointment when Joobie rejects the cat pouch after some initial interest. Despite the effort put into creating it, they accept the outcome with good humor. They then segue into a commercial for Squarespace, promoting its services for building websites, selling products, and setting up online courses. The hosts highlight the platform's ease of use, built-in tools, and professional templates as advantages for potential users.
😾 Attaching a Brush to Joobie's Chair
The video continues with a life hack where the hosts attach a small brush to one of Joobie's chairs in the hope that she will enjoy brushing against it. Despite their enthusiasm, Joobie shows little interest in the brush. They experiment with the brush's orientation and compare it to a regular cat brush. The hack is not very successful, but the hosts remain positive and open to Joobie using it in the future.
🎨 Creating Art with Joobie the Cat
The final segment involves creating a piece of art using Joobie's natural instincts. They place a canvas inside a plastic bag and cover it with Joobie's favorite treat, Churu, and various colors of flow acrylic paint. Joobie walks on the bag, stepping in the paint and treat, effectively creating a unique piece of art. The hosts are amused by the process and later reveal the finished artwork, giving it a playful critique.

Transcripts
We have made a lot of projects
for our cat Joobie on this channel.
They're very high effort, and she has liked very few of 'em.
So today we're gonna be trying more accessible
cat-related projects in the form of life hacks.
(laughs) She's just licking her bed.
KATELYN: You know-
Hey, whatever brings her joy. (laughs)
Exactly, and I have gathered several life hacks
that I hope will bring her joy.
Evan has no idea what they are.
Are you ready to look at the first one?
Yeah.
This video is brought to you by Squarespace,
the all-in-one platform for all your website needs.
(air whooshes) So what is one of the things
that Joobie spends most of her time doing?
Sleeping.
And what's one of her favorite types of places
to sleep in, other than a box?
On our shirts?
Yes.
Combine that with one of her other favorite ways to sleep.
Shirt and box.
I said not a box.
Shirt.
She likes our shirts. Yes, she likes our shirts.
She also likes being covered.
Like a tent, yeah. Like a tent.
A shirt tent.
No way!
Okay, yes, I love crafting things
with like shirt hangers. Wire.
(both laugh)
Cardboard, yes. Cardboard base.
So I guess there is a little bit of a box element.
Oh, and a shirt?
No, I don't know why it says your ex's T-shirt.
I don't know why it's throwing shade like that.
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, this is genius.
This is genius. Right?
Isn't this kind of clever? Joob, you're leaving
at just the wrong point.
This is amazing. And they go
through the little shirt hole. Oh.
And it's gonna smell like us 'cause it's our shirt,
and it's a little tent so she'll be covered.
And it's got a cardboard bottom.
Yeah.
Like I think this is a really good idea.
EVAN: Let's try it.
(air whooshes)
So, I have some options for us.
I have a couple wire hangers.
So I have a Katelyn T-shirt that is Joobie themed,
and an Evan T-shirt.
I think it's probably gonna be Evan T-shirt size.
That is Joobie themed. Now one thing
that's deceptive, these aren't the same.
(gasps) I thought the wire went all the way through.
No, do we have another one of these?
(jazz music) Hmm.
Hmm.
Hmm.
(Katelyn nervously laughs)
(Katelyn makes unsure noises)
Hmm.
We don't have any more wire hangers.
I mean, I guess we can buy them.
No.
(laughs) Somewhere in here I think is our answer.
Oh my god.
Oh, wait, I see something shiny.
(both laugh)
Yes, there, there. Ah, yes.
EVAN: Yes, it might not be like 100% true
to life hacks shown, but it's like the same spirit.
Yeah.
And did you ever do like crafts with this
when you were a kid?
I'm sure I did, but I don't have a ton of memory of it,
but you seemed very enthusiastic about it.
Oh my gosh, I made all sorts of things with this,
phone holders, camera tripods, stands for books,
things to hold books open.
So I know you created a lot of things out of duct tape.
Was this like the bones,
and you used the duct tape around it?
Often, yeah.
'Cause I mean, like how many of these
did you have access to when you were a kid?
Unlimited. Unlimited.
I don't know if my mom ever worried like,
"Where are they going?
"How are they disappearing?"
It was me.
All right, so I mean, yeah,
that makes a decent sized tent loop.
Yeah, let's match that link for the other piece of wire.
Yep, when did we get this?
What project did we get this for?
I don't know, man.
All right, there you go.
So, wait, is this too small? Whoa.
Oh? I think that's perfect.
That's great.
That's a pretty good Joob size.
Now they just pushed it down.
(wire smacks)
Oh, shoot.
I think let's hot glue it though.
I think, yeah,
I think we should maybe hot glue it.
All right, so bring out the hot glue gun.
The solver of all issues.
Generous glob. Generous.
EVAN: There you go.
I'm trying to follow this the best we can.
Yeah. Oop, looks pretty dry.
Let's see how stable this is.
KATELYN: This is with no weight on it.
Eh, I have concerns. Okay.
So I think we should fix it, but do it hack style.
Oh, a twist tie. A twist tie.
I think let's put a twist tie right here.
Instead of my ex-boyfriend's shirt,
it'll be my current husband's shirt.
Well, actually in a way, you are an ex-boyfriend
because you used to be my boyfriend.
You are no longer my boyfriend.
You are my husband.
I'm your ex-boyfriend. You're my ex-boyfriend.
You're my ex-girlfriend.
Pleased to meet you.
(both laugh)
Oh my gosh, yes. I just realized like,
what do you do at the back of it?
They didn't show that. They didn't show the back.
Look at that though, guys.
His was kind of like- Ours is like a lot floppier
than there's- Shh, look at that.
KATELYN: Yeah, I mean, it looks like a little cat house.
EVAN: It looks like a little cat house,
and it cost us $0. Yeah.
Let's get Joobie in here and see what she thinks.
Okay, Joobie.
Joobie. Ooh, yes.
Oh my gosh, she's rushing.
What's this? Yeah, Joobie,
that's for you.
KATELYN: It looks a little small
looking at it next to her.
I'm not gonna lie, it's a little tiny.
EVAN: But she likes small containers.
KATELYN: She does, she does.
You know what's funny though?
I'm not as like concerned because it didn't take that long.
No, but please, still, Joobie, please like it.
KATELYN: Joobie, come on.
(relaxed music)
JOOB: Meh.
Use the spray. Okay.
We have catnip in a bottle.
(audience gasps)
(laughs) Play with the back.
Make like scratching noises. I am.
EVAN: Yes, yes, yes, she's going.
She's like looking around,
but it's moving the whole thing.
Sike. Are you not entertained?
Oh, oh. Yes, yes, yes.
Film, film, film.
(gasps) She just needed the entrance raised.
Go in.
Go in, baby.
No, you're halfway there. Pranked.
EVAN: Oh, that's a good toy.
More catnip 'cause I think when she gets in there,
she's gonna like it.
All right, let's just be patient.
Okay, be patient.
(relaxed music continues)
You thought. No.
Joobie, it's shirts and cardboard.
She came back.
Where's the camera?
I think we should ignore her.
Okay, I'll be casual.
(calm jazz music)
She's in, and she gave a little purr.
Can you film her face?
She's sticking her head through this sleeve.
Here, you get it, you get it.
I'll freak out too much.
This is the moment. Her head's over here.
Head's over here.
Yes, yes, yes. (Katelyn laughs)
Is this her head now? Yes.
Yeah, it's moving over.
Get it, get it, get it.
(calm jazz music continues)
KATELYN: It's just darkness.
EVAN: Oh, her head's over here now.
KATELYN: Oh, she keeps rotating.
EVAN: Gonna have to boost the brightness a lot.
Yeah, yeah, go for it. Oh, there she is.
Wait, wait, there she is.
Oh yeah, there she is,
little Joobie. Is chill.
KATELYN: It seems like she's laying down
based on the curve. Yeah, she is laying down.
You can come over here and see.
Oh, a baby. Yes, yes, yes.
I'm just gonna give it a rating right now.
Come on, come on in.
This is what life hacks should be, 10 outta 10.
I agree, it's a 10 out of 10.
It used all stuff you already have.
It wasn't like more expensive than a store-bought version.
And it's smart. And it's smart,
and she likes it. I can't believe it.
This is mind blowing.
And she likes it. She likes it.
She likes it. Yes.
(bell dings) (air whooshes)
So with this life hack, I think it's something
that's gonna work, and I think Joobie will like it.
And it involves a quintessential life hack ingredient.
Hot glue. Hot glue.
(laughs) All right.
All right, kitchen glove, hot glue.
Is this to pet her with?
It's to pet her with.
And it's to like brush her
so you can like thin out her fur.
You know, especially as a long hair cat,
like they need brushing.
Now, I'm doubtful about the brush they're showing on here
'cause if you look at that, it had black fur,
it had tufts of white.
It's like they took clumps and just attached it on.
Yeah, I think the after of the glove is definitely fake,
but I think it'll work.
I know the hot glue is a little grippy and sticky
because I actually use a life hack
where I put it on my hangers
for like shirts that slip. Yeah.
So I'm excited to try it.
Let's see, and here's all of the supplies.
Oh, yeah. Wait, baby.
This is just...
I think it's supposed to be thicker.
No, it's the same.
It's the same kind of glove.
EVAN: I think that's meant to be
like a thick kitchen glove. No, it doesn't need
to be a thick kitchen glove.
I think it's better if it's thin
'cause you can like go like this on her tail.
You can get like better grip.
I don't know, cat grip. (chuckles)
Here, we can try two different gloves if you want.
We have some thick kitchen ones.
I can't believe you're judging my life hack materials.
I just think that they meant for this type of glove.
Yeah, but look at this, see?
Yeah, but but look at this. How is that different?
Exactly. (Evan laughs)
So why are you making fun of my gloves?
I think this is gonna be perfect. (snickers)
Video evidence suggests otherwise.
Here, while the hot glue heats up, we'll do a fur tour.
Look, look at that.
Look at that tail.
Look at those cheek floofs.
(Evan coughs)
Do you know that this video will be coming out
right after Joob's birthday?
Will she be 14? She's gonna be 14.
She just a 14-year-old kitten.
(sneezes) It is now also a good time to point out
that I am highly allergic to cats.
Evan is allergic.
But Joobie's worth it. Yeah.
EVAN: All right, go for it.
Just do little globs.
KATELYN: Yeah, they just kind of did little nub.
What if the hot glue doesn't stick?
EVAN: Well, it'd be more false advertising
by these craft channels.
KATELYN: Our hot glue is dry.
This feels pretty nice.
Let's see, do they pop off or anything?
They're not popping off.
They are sticky.
Do you hear? Yeah.
Hello, Joobie. (both laugh)
Yeah, what do you think?
It feels grippy. Hey, Joobie.
KATELYN: I wanna give her like a few good pets,
and then let's look.
EVAN: I had to turn up the brightness whole bunch
to be able to see her. I know.
EVAN: The glove is glowing.
You are glowing.
Joobie is barely illuminated. Barely visible.
EVAN: Wait, wait, let me turn down the brightness.
Is there anything? There's like a few hairs.
EVAN: Not many.
Not at all what it showed in the video.
Let me try this one.
So you didn't capture the putting on process.
Oh. It's on.
It's a glove. It was easy.
But how does it work for petting?
Oh, Joobie wasn't as crazy about this one.
EVAN: (laughs) She looks so disgruntled.
She looks kind of annoyed. She's like tolerating it.
KATELYN: So that's about the same amount.
I think I did about 10 strokes with the orange.
It looks like about a similar amount of hair.
EVAN: Oh, some are starting to fall off.
KATELYN: (gasps) You know what, this glove,
it's stiffer. Because it's more rigid.
Yeah. Yeah.
Oh my gosh, you were right.
You chose the better glove.
I was wrong.
Well, anyways, let's see how these gloves compare
to her silicone brush.
I did about 10 strokes. Well also with that,
like you're going deeper into her fur.
She's starting to get annoyed.
Already, this is like 10 times as much.
Oh my gosh. Look at that.
EVAN: So what they did is they just went like this.
KATELYN: That's 100% what they did.
This is $10.
Okay.
Relative to this as a standard,
I think this is like a two.
I think it's like a four.
She didn't fully reject it.
It somewhat worked.
It was pretty fast.
Compromise at three.
Okay, compromise at three.
(air whooshes)
I'm ready. So this next hack
is for Joobie, but it's also for me.
EVAN: Oh no, sewing?
[Narrator Katelyn] You can make something really cute
from an old sweatshirt and a piece of microfiber.
Draw a semicircle on the fabric.
I like the voiceover.
It sounds very familiar. Thank you.
I had to recreate it
'cause without the voiceover,
you don't really get the full experience,
but, you know, copyright music.
Copyright music, okay.
[Narrator Katelyn] Cut it out.
Sew it to the sweatshirt.
Sewing, you're gonna sew? Use a sewing machine,
leave the upper part of the seam undone.
Should we try it on?
Put your cat in the warm pocket
and go outside. Look at that.
[Narrator Katelyn] This is a great way to go on a walk
with a kitty.
You are stylish.
Your pet is cozy.
Everyone is happy.
All right, so, baby, have you used a sewing machine?
We're not gonna use a sewing machine.
All right, let's see what we got.
Yeah, I had to weigh this box down
because everything's quite puffy.
Oh my gosh.
I have some options.
First off, we need a hoodie,
and I wanted one that wasn't black.
90% of our hoodies are black.
Yep, you went with the salami from our previous tie dye.
I don't have any non-black options.
Yes, this is my tie-dyed meat hoodie.
This, words are hard, floral hoodie is a large.
So if you wanna also be able to wear it-
If I'm looking at the other material,
I'm not gonna get anywhere close to this.
I thought the pocket we should make out of fur!
But that's what she does too.
I mean, she calls it microfiber, but it's fur.
It's a fur fabric.
This is much more fur than what she did,
but I love your vision. Thank you.
Now, are you gonna staple it on?
No, I'm gonna sew it by hand,
and this is the sacrifice that I'm willing
to make in order to carry Joob around
like a kangaroo baby.
Babe, you know we have a sewing machine.
I don't want to use it.
I'm scared. (Evan laughs)
I can do it by hand.
This is gonna take so long.
No.
It'll be fine.
Foreshadowing. (laughs)
And we have so much fur left over from our Furby robot.
It was really expensive fur, and I wanna use it again.
[Narrator Katelyn] Cut the fabric in a semicircle.
(upbeat bright music)
(laughs) I'm just gonna be over here.
Yeah. (laughs)
EVAN: I'll film you from over here.
Okay, sounds good.
EVAN: Where are you gonna take Joob to,
on little walks around the house?
Probably just walk around the house.
You know, that's what she likes.
Now in the video, it says,
"This is a great way to take your kitty on a walk."
If she's really vibing, maybe we'll see if she wants
to go outside just a little bit.
Okay, I think I should put this on
and we'll like pin it in place.
Yeah.
I'm trying not to like ruffle my mic here.
(mic ruffles)
Okay.
Mm, Meat Hoodie. (Evan laughs)
She loves ham. Oh my god,
it's gonna go up so high.
Here, put your arms down.
Put your arms down.
I mean, I think that's right.
(Katelyn laughs)
Yeah, like a koala. It's so much.
It's so much pouch.
EVAN: This is one of the stranger things we've done.
No.
This is normal.
Other people with cats have had this desire.
I know it.
I feel like Chansey, the Pokemon.
Joobie is much larger than this.
Joobie is larger The Joobivisor.
(relaxed jazz music) (Evan laughs)
Maybe this type of device is just for kittens.
No!
I'm gonna make it work for an 11 pound cat.
Don't let your dreams be dreams.
(mic ruffles) (Evan laughs)
(both laugh)
Hey, Mom, do you have any tips
for sewing really fluffy fabric to a hoodie?
I don't have much experience sewing,
but after some tips from my mom...
How big is that cat? She's like 11 pounds.
Okay, eh, probably be fine. And some small scale tests,
I felt confident enough
to sew this whole Dollar Store Chansey pouch.
It took me over two hours
and I only stabbed myself a little,
but the end result will be worth it.
(steady string music)
(Katelyn laughs)
(mic ruffles)
(slow quirky music)
(Katelyn laughs)
Okay.
(laughs) Fabulous.
If this is a preview, that's gonna be glorious.
This is my dream. Let's get her.
Let's get her.
Hi, Joobie. Hi, Joobie.
Oh, come on. Are you interested?
She's interested. Here, let's go.
Yes. Get the tail.
Oh, it's okay.
Yeah, there you go.
There we go.
EVAN: But now, she is happy. (laughs)
She just needs to relax into it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Too weird.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Here, maybe if she goes in like this.
(Evan laughs) Joobie.
EVAN: Like for five seconds,
she was settled in there.
Joobie.
Joobie, look at this.
Can you spray me? Yeah.
Wait, keep her here.
Keep her here. I'll keep her here.
This is like a hey, Joobie, it's for you spray.
(Katelyn calls)
Joobie, I got the spray.
Can you hold open my pouch, and I put her in?
Oh yeah.
'Cause I think part of it's the angle.
Oh.
Joobie.
No.
Your dreams. Joobie.
Wait, can you grab the basket, the white basket?
(laughs) You're gonna try to shove that in there?
Baby, it's not gonna fit.
Just get the basket.
Wanna get in my pouch like a baby kangaroo?
EVAN: (laughs) You want me to shove this in there?
I thought maybe it would... (laughs) No way, baby.
I thought maybe I could like (trills) (laughs).
Maybe if I...
She wanted to go down
into the basket. She wants the basket.
Joobie. (Evan laughs)
EVAN: Oh my gosh.
Joobie.
(Evan laughs) I think I just need
to get higher up.
(calls) Joobie.
She was like, I'm not having any more of this.
Come here, come here.
What if I lay down like on the ground,
and she can like crawl in at ground level,
and then I can roll.
You've put so much effort into this.
Your shoulders. Spent like two hours
sewing this by hand.
(both laugh) (somber music)
She hated it.
She hated it.
She hated it.
(both laugh)
I'm so upset. (Evan laughs)
What else should I put in here?
Hold on.
I feel bad, guys.
I feel bad.
She put so much effort into this,
but sometimes that's just how it be.
(Evan laughs)
Okay, there you go.
Do you hate that your hoodie is so small
and has such small storage?
Do you want more storage?
Introducing

There you go.
Hands free.

Woo!
You missed it. (laughs) I missed it. (laughs)
(upbeat music continues)
(ominous music)
Oh no.
Hey, love.
Have a problem?
Hot glue can fix it.
Everyday annoyances getting you down?
(Evan groans)
That's right, hot glue's here again to save the day.
(upbeat music)
Ugh, how do I sell my creations?
Okay, hot glue can't fix this one.

This next project involves upgrading
a project we've already made for Joobie.
Am I supposed to ignore the chair
that's sitting right here? (laughs)
Play the video
(Evan laughs)
Cat on chair. Brush.
Brush? Magically remove brush
with no resistance from the backing.
Stick it to chair.
Cat walks past it. (chuckles)
Immediately turns around.
And is very intrigued.
Oh, cat loves brush.
Cat loves brush. Oh.
Do you think Joobie will love?
Joobie does love rubbing on things.
Maybe she'll like a brush attached to...
(drum rolls)
Wow, so unexpected.
Attached to her chair. Now quick question.
Yes?
Why did you get such a tiny brush? (laughs)
Okay, I didn't know it was so tiny.
I thought it was bigger.
It looked bigger. Look at it in my hand.
It's tiny, but it's big enough for Joobie.
EVAN: Can I try just peeling it out that.
KATELYN: Yeah, that's what they did.
I don't think that's gonna work.
Can I destroy it?
Yeah.
Yes.
(upbeat rock music)
KATELYN: Ooh.
I got a cheap brush.
(laughs)I'm having fun.
(both laugh)
It's a pretty beefy brush you got.
Let's do this. Yeah, there we go.
EVAN: You lost a few.
KATELYN: We lost a few.
That's okay. That's okay.
Okay.
(brush clanks)
It does kind of mold to it. Yeah.
Did I pick a good adhesive?
EVAN: You picked a adhesive, baby.
Thank you.
Try to smash this without losing any more prongs.
Okay, let's see if she likes it.
Come here. Not again.
We got something for you.
She's so suspicious every time.
You recognize this. It's literally covered.
Literally covered in cat hair.
Try this out, but if you don't like it, that's okay.
It was cheap and easy.
Evan got to destroy a brush.
Yeah. (laughs)
Okay, what if we just like get on our phones and ignore her?
I don't have my phone. Too bad for you. (laughs)
Wow, so much to swipe through today.
I know, lots to do.
So much swiping on social media.
Send some work emails. Yeah, work emails.
Yeah, what about that one work email
we just got in?
Do you wanna- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think we should say no.
Dear Sir/Madam,
BOTH: No.
(Katelyn laughs)
Send. Good meeting.
And we're just hanging out here casual like.
We're hanging out. She always gets curious
when I uncork the stray bottle
for the catnip. For the catnip.
(words slam) (calm music)
Oh, she's interested.
Do you recognize this?
It's your chair, but look at that.
Look at that addition.
We picked a good height.
Oh, she's interested.
She's licking it.
Okay, interesting choice.
Yeah.
Good for rubs or licks.
I mean, I guess as long as you're enjoying it.
It might have made more sense to use a cat brush.
Well, let me test something.
All right. Let's see.
Is it the vertical orientation that's the problem,
or is it that it's a human brush?
Yeah. Let's try horizontal.
EVAN: But she's rubbing on the wood.
She's rubbing on the wood though.
She got a couple bristles.
You know what, you didn't use this before.
Now you're gonna have catnip in your hair.
That's true.
She likes the one that you're holding, and she moves on.
Joobie, you little goofball.
I'll give it a five out of 10.
Yeah, I think it's not a bad idea.
It's not a bad idea.
Now- I could see her
using it in the future.
I think she just doesn't understand it.
Even though you didn't like the craft, that's fine.
It wasn't that hard to do. (air whooshes)
Okay, so for this project, I thought it'd be fun
to do something, not necessarily for Joobie,
but with Joobie.
Is she gonna be painting?
Are you saying that because there's a canvas on screen?
Yes.
(both laugh)
(laughs) Am I pretty good?
Am I pretty good?
Oh yes.
Oh, oh. So that's flow acrylic
Flow acrylic. In a plastic bag
with food on it.
Now, technically in this video-
That's a lot of food.
Yeah, and it's a dog. Holy moly.
But I think we could adapt it to be a cat.
Wow, look at his art.
Don't you want that to be Joobie?
Yes. I have some flow acrylic.
I have a canvas in a bag,
and I have her current favorite treat, which is Churu.
Yep. We put the paints on there.
We squeeze the tube of Churu around it
so she kinda has to walk around,
and we get some Joobie art.
That sounds great,
but if we want this to stay her art,
what we'll actually have to do
is we'll have to keep the canvas under the plastic
because if we remove the plastic,
it will completely change her art.
Well if we leave it on there, it's gonna
Never dry. Never dry.
I think peeling it off would have the least effect.
Okay, all right, let's do it.
All right, what colors do you think would speak to Joobie?
I kind of picture like cat dimension, galaxy esque colors.
Yeah, so maybe some black. Some black, some purple.
Metallic purple. Oh, metallic blue,
pearl like teal. Metallic white.
KATELYN: Metallic white,
that's like a pretty nice combo right there.
Yeah, let's do a little bit of white.
Can you guys see?
No, you can't.
Maybe we shouldn't do black
'cause then it's gonna turn gray,
Red. We could do red if you want.
EVAN: I think we should go heavy with this.
KATELYN: Yeah, we don't want any white spots left.
EVAN: No.
KATELYN: Maybe we'll kind of concentrate the red there
and the teal here, so there's a little bit
of a like gradient. Love that, love that.
I think we'll just do a little more metallic purple
for the cat dimension. Yeah, okay.
I think that'll be enough. I think that looks good.
Okay.
Okay, and let's go get the artist herself.
Joobie, do you know what this is?
(word smacks)
KATELYN: Hi.
Oh my gosh, she loves Churu.
EVAN: Are the feet about to touch the canvas?
KATELYN: If I like lure her.
EVAN: I mean, her tongue is touching it.
Oh, she's stepping in the Churu.
She stepped in the Churu. She stepped in the Churu.
Okay, you want some more?
I got it on me.
Oh, yes.
Good job, Joobie, yes.
Squish it. You want a little bit more?
EVAN: Oh, yes.
Oh, she's stepping on it.
The little feet of the artist.
Oh yeah.
Joobie, what a good artist You're such a good artist.
(gentle string music)
EVAN: Little artist working in the canvas.
See you, nerds. And she's done with Churu,
done with her snack, okay.
Let's see if we can cut it open.
There we go.
Of the least disturbance to the art possible.
EVAN: Let's reveal the masterwork.
(fart blows)
KATELYN: Wow, she did a good job.
It's very thick.
It's gonna take a really long time for this to dry.
(calm string music)
All right, so it's time to judge the cat art.
I'd give it a six outta 10.
Not enough toebeans.
You know, it was all right,
(both laugh)
but I think Joobie had a good time making it.
Oh yeah.
Hey, you happy, Joobie?
Yes.
Bye.
(censor beep)
I am swayed by food.
Mhm.
Cat hair.
You're gonna crush the chips.
