Victim: *Unholy agonizing screams of the damned*
Martin: ha relatable
martin saying that is relatable
"I know right!" Martin you are the ray of sunshine the worms are wriggling towards
It's been that way since season 1
I actually laughed out loud at that, at work. 🤣
The fact its in response to SCREAMS OF THE DAMNED is gold 😂😂
Omg lmao I need to memorize that as a pick-up line
Martin season one: "hey Jon i made you tea."
Martin season 5: "its the apocalypse why not go on a murder spree jon?"
“Get our murder on” Best line. I would die for you martin
Damn I was gonna say, what a gigantic mood
“YES Martin”👏
699th like, but also facts bro
You will! :)
The "YES Martin! 👁👄👁💅"
Helen (proudly): "Yes Martin!"
Made me bust up laughing.
I cackled. I half expected her to follow up with “squad goals!”
yes
Yaaas queen, SLAY 💖🤩💅
-Helen
she was like YAAAS QUEEN
Yeah, watching Jon smite the NotThem definitely awoke something in Martin. He knows Jon isn't human, knows he's more powerful than ever, and instead of being afraid of him, Martin decides "hey, face your trauma and get your revenge. Some monster hurt you? Go bash it's face in. I've got you." Helen, of course, is going to enjoy watching that very much.
monsterfucker Martin rights
Can't See if someone said that already (youtube broke comment section a little), so I'll say that.
AREN'T WE ALL ENJOY THIS? They are the best. Jon, his favourite boy and his favourite boy's bestie that Jon dislikes. The coolest trio!!!
"oh.... oh. dear.... Smash."
@@tayloradams3993perfect comment. Excellent
@@tayloradams3993lmao
I absolutely love that during this season where the world has gone into LITERAL NIGHTMARE, we still get these really nice, cute, or humorous moments.
It's a great contrast to make us drop our guard just a little, so the fear gets in deeper
in this season it's the literal apocalypse but somehow we're also getting more cute wholesome/funny moments than in all the other seasons combined
It's so funny that the season that happens during the apocalypse is the most enjoyable so far. Jon has his boyfriend now and that's all I need
yea its the least upsetting so far
jon literally wet it's martin or the world and i am picking martin
episode 200.. changes that. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@zeelovesthee 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@irca318 IM SORRY 😭😭😭😭
OOOOHHHHH so this is why "guess I'll die" is a legitimate way to escape the Buried. By absolutely accepting it all you are giving up hope and without hope, there is no true fear and without your fear to feed on there is no use for you, and you are then chucked outside. It all makes sense....
Oooh, that's true
NO CONTRACT, NO SQURMING! NO CONTRACT, NO SQUIRMING!
Stan that one girl who just accepted a crushing agonizingly slow bus death and lived because the buried just could not
I love how Jon has to keep "Martin"ing Martin out of being chummy with Helen
He's just too naturally wholesome and kind!
The fact that Martin still talks to the tape recorder is one of my favorite things about him tbh
He got so lonely in season 4 he pack bonded with the tape recorder.
Well, the tape recorder is like talking with his bf so... I would do that too if I was with a bunch of screaming dirt
MARTIN SAYS MURDER RIGHTS LMAOO
martin says gay rights _and_ gay wrongs
Me listening to this: These worms should form an union
Comrade
Me, with Polygon slowly consuming my brain: Sure. Then they can get high with Bigfoot. Who would pass up an opportunity like that?
Commie worms making a revolution against the human bourgeoisie
The three musketeers
The worms that turned.
The nokia survives all, lmaooo
As a Nokia user, amen
Those things are indestructible
I was 100% picturing an early oughts brickphone when I heard that ringing 😅
The 14 Fears: I fear no man but that thing
*THE NOKIA*
The 15 Fears: It scares me
Martin knows what's up! These things deserve precisely as much sympathy as they feel for their victims! Not!Sasha asked for it, and she got it!
The one main conflict is, isn’t Jon one of them? He’s just as monstrous, feeds off the same fear, brought about this world, and is just as terrifying to *everyone* else. So, did these people truly have a choice if we presume that Jon didn’t have one? Anyways, yeah, not!Sasha sucks and Jon’s great, but it’s interesting to think about!
Jon only has 5-ish direct victims I believe and, er, non-consentually brought about the end of the world. Considering how he’s also been marked by all of the fears, I think he’s felt enough suffering to balance out any he’s caused (other than the end of the world, which was really just Elias/Jonah’s doing-it’s like saying that a robot that is actively trying to resist the inputs of the controller is responsible for killing someone, not the one controlling it)
I suppose you could say that that robot analogy is also true for the other avatars, but is it really? They get joy out of killing and hurting and harming and tormenting. They don’t resist. It’s evident from other avatars (eg. Daisy, who was going to die before the Hunt took her over) that it’s possible to keep some of your humanity. Jon and Martin are trying their hardest to not hurt innocent people.
This is a really good topic for a moral debate though
@@luxill0s Ha. I have been picturing the group getting lost in the chaos outside of reality and running into certain comic book ferocious sadistic spiritually empowered avatars of guilt--the intellectual ones who were seeking the power of forgiveness, so less violence prone. The conversation I imagine would include an exchange of origins, and discussion on Jon's guilt. Because he feels guilt, he's not really a target for these guilt monsters. They look for those who don't feel guilt, and become embodiments of your own buried conscience. Essentially, Erinyes, or Furies. (Which would be interesting to contrast that one Jewish psychologist fan's analysis who compared Jon to the scapegoat sacrifice.)
The thing is, feeling guilty over something you had no choice in, is a way to avoid feeling guilty about something you *actually * decided to do. Our true sins are rationalized and accepted. Still, Jon is trying.
"There's but three Furies in all of Hell, but in a great man's heart three thousand dwell"
I LOVE HELEN SO MUCH!
"Can I come?" She is the best!
"NO!"
"No."
"So that's a strong 'maybe', then?"
She really is amazing.
@@Oliolli3
**I sigh dreamily** yeah :)
She´s the only happy thing that keeps me going in this apocalypse
this didnt age well
@@germanerd6148 What about Martin and John's adorable relationship?
helen and martin being friends to jon's eternal exasperation is giving me life dkskskk
god, i also hate the buried. the imagery in this is so visceral, effective, and clearly understood. the way this season is handling each fear so directly and in such a poetic way at the same time... whew!!
Worm time
"Get our murder on!" was amazing but " *Yes* Martin!" had me in fucking shambles.
Ah yes the Capitalism episode
To be fair Season 5 is basically Capitalism.mp3 over and over again. Something I will never complain about
@@chaoticgood12 Sometimes it's xenophobia!
maybe the real Capitalism was the friends we made along the way
The true ruler of all the fears
hey quick question why are all the comments on tma eps so funny
Losing it at Martin apologising to the "scary mud" for dissing it
Helen saying “Yes Martin!” has the same energy as “Yes slay queen!”
No but Martins approval of Jon wanting revenge is extremely interesting
The biggest crime Jon has committed is not seeing Kill Bill
Martin: "jon, would you still love me if I was a worm?"
under rated comment right here, this made me cackle
I just realised what I thought was a “crack” on the new TMA logo was actually a spiderweb. Only realised after looking at the logo while listening to Annabelle’s part at the same time lol
holy shit wait-
omg i was abt to comment this but u already did... i have never had an original experience huh
o shid
lmfao i noticed during this ep as well
I hope it doesn't foreshadow anything
*Jon:* I'm horrible vile murderous scum, I don't deserve to live in this suffering world I helped create
*Martin:* Yeah, nope. We should murder more, actually. We should do *so* much murder.
*Annabelle:* **attempts manipulation**
*Martin:* lol girl bye
*Screams of the burried:* AHHHHGGGGGHH
*Martin:* I know, right?
Martin is my most favorite character in all of media.
Him calling The Burred "Scary Mud" just to have the soil itself SCREAM at him just for him to apologies is hilarious.
The imagery of someone being underground, unable to die in the earth, crushed, scraped and worn down until their body is nothing more than a fleshy worm disturbs me to my core
Severe "I have no mouth and I must scream" vibes from this one
If they didn't have mouths, how could they chew through each other ?
@@Badficwriterit's the name of a sci-fi novel that has similar themes of hopelessness as this episode
absolutely enjoy this character development
Jon, formerly a bitter skeptic and now a priveleged monster: noo I don't want to kill these terrible things I'm ashamed
Martin, formerly a cinnamon roll and now a badass boyfriend: nah murder is actually cool
Helen is, as always, the best
ah the worms... i was so sad when it premiered bc i was hoping against hope that my horrible Worm Wife Jane Prentiss was going to reappear :(
Reading the title I thought this would be about the corruption and was confused, because we just had an corruption episode
martin is truly the most character of all time...
"does he even need you--?"
"bye!"
getting manipulated? just hang up!
Martin: yeah, let’s do it, let’s go full Kill Bill!
John: oh Can I? 👁👄👁
Helen: **thru delighted smirks and lots of OHBOY** CAN I COOOOOME?
LMAOOO
“Let’s get our murder on!!”
“WHOT-“
“YES Martin!!!”
Helen is THRILLED lmao
I keep hoping Martin will offer Helen a cup of tea while Jon rants
its deeply amusing to me that the season during the eyepocalypce TM is also the one with the lightest tone for me, because somehow someway this i probably the happiest i have seen jon and martin. in the end they just needed to be free of assholes who judge jon over being a big spooky eye man.
oh worm?
oh worm!!!
oh worm....
Oh ~worm~
Worm wife
oh… _worm…_
"Get our murder on!" Martin you... I have no words hahaha
I can’t believe I binge watched this entire podcast in less than a week
Same, I started on sunday.
Ya'll crazy its taken me two months to get this far and i thought that was fast😂
When do you guys sleep...
@@achnav3762 I think it goes without say that a good portion of this fandom are insomniacs
@@achnav3762 Sleep? What’s that?
Alternate Title: The Tale of Sam the Worm
"Don't be strangers"
I'm wheezing 🤣🤣🤣
I said out loud "For fuck sake.."
Helen, I just want to say, you're my favourite _Monster_ in this whole entire series and I absolutely adore your disposition. Not to be confused with Martin who is my favourite _human_
From all of tma this episode is one of the most disturbing ones to me, and it is oddly personal?
Like, this one feels like almost the buried itself is talking to you, while in all the over nighgmare-statments it is from the victims perspective. Maybe its still pissed about that time Jonny and Daisi escaped it?
“Worms don’t get to see the sky” what abt when it rains n u see a bunch of worms on the pavement
They see clouds
They don’t have eyes.
martin talking to the burried and tape recorders is so funny and adorable
also 23:08 is so funny Im kdbdksbdls
The Buried always gets to me, but pair that with the squirming worm sounds, and that makes it so much more ✨ _Uncomfortable_ ✨ lol
At least the second time around, I knew what to expect.
An excellent episode. Bravo! 😁
"Kind of wish the apocalypse had some magazines, actually no, on second thoughts. Probably not."
"Seriously, a spade?"
Never change Martin, never change. You're too cute.
This story left me gasping for air, desperately moving my arms around in open air just for the relieving sensation that I *could* what a damn terrifying story, even for this series, so Bravo
I love Helen and Martin's dynamic so much, especially when Jon is so done with talking to her
Oh Helen, you're my favorite monster ❤️
I'm with Helen. I'm so proud of Martin rn.
I love how Martin responds to the worms agonized screams with "I know right?" hilarious
I don't know if we represent the cassette tapes, or the recorder, but I'm happy being Martins lil pet 😊
I love so much Martin's twisted moral compass and witty comments. Jon if Martin says Murder Rights, you have to comply, no other option
Ito Junji called, he wants to collab.
This episode felt so incredibly claustrophobic and despair inducing, unsure why specifically it felt like it had such a strong effect on me but the imagery made me physically recoil. Really well done! Also love the lighter moments, made it a bit easier to reach the end. I love Jon and Martin's dynamics so much :')
“If it screams it’s awful agony’s to the sky’s like a worm” hmm
The animal lover in me was like, hold up
Is... Is Jon taking statements from the entities themselves now?
loving this martin jon adventure season
Sam: Would you still love me if I was a worm?
The Buried: I don't even love you as a human
does martin talk to the tape recorders or something else? when he says i know right
He's talking to the tape recorders, and by extension the Eye
I think he was talking to the person screaming. Just like-
*Angry gut-wrenching screams*
Martin: Ha relatable.
Martin: Lets go kill bill
John: I haven't seen it.
i am utterlly dead
TMA said class consciousness
it sucks that they're in this hellscape but jon and martin bro their interactions give me life
Idk what y'all's worms are like, but from where I'm from they don't scream their awful agony into the sky that often
martin says murder rights
Sam really went "would you still love me if I was a worm" horror edition
This was existentially terrifying
I was fine and dandy with this whole episode until I realised Jon hadn't SAID anything to Martin in the end and at first I just brushed it off as, y'know, very good facial expressions. I've been there. but then I remembered the vampires and I-.........well, I wanna see what happens next
Tourist Jon with Martin getting his kill joy on. Nice.
Didn't wanna hit like as it was on 66... I like repeating things haha x
This is one of those episodes I can genuinely describe as "dreadful."
Not that the quality of it is lacking, quite the opposite. The emotions the story of sam gives me are dread, dread, and dread.
"Get our murder on" Martin your gem a true gem.
And can we talk about how Helen basically Yas queen Martin? 😂
Martin all gong ho about murder; and Helen just cheering in the background! I love them so much.
This episode is SO good. I hate the Buried. Describes so much of, er, my situation at work and life, I suppose. I think it may describe a lot of people's, actually. So afraid of trying something new, going outside the predetermined path, even though that path crushes you. You fear whatever else there is might be worse. So we don't dare to dream or dare or try. We just are content to let ourselves get crushed while hoping something better eventually happens to us. The escape appears.
hehe worm goes wiggle wiggle
Me sitting here with my M&Ms getting ready to listen to the tale of Sam the Worm: 😯
HELEN IS **SO** DELIGHTFUL XD
This episode is something else...
Its not just the absolute horror of the worms but the context this gives to all the coffin stories in retrospect? To finally know why it wailed and cried at the rain...what clawed desperately at the uncaring wood and to know what it...sounds like...
This is a nightmare. Not figuratively, literally. This is a nightmare and the fine folks at Rusty Quill have found a way to record it.
I...never drew that connection, but that's amazing
"yes martin!💅💅💅💅"
These episodes are my favorite episodes of the magnus archives, going through all the entities domains, a raw version of the fear they represent
_Boy_ I love Helen, I hope when the world is saved again nothing too bad happens to her
It makes so much sense that Helen wants to be friends with Jon since he is so powerful now.
The wailing from u derground is really terrifying
My thoughts while watching this:
Sasha’s “YES Martin” was so perfect
They lost the perfect opportunity to name the worm “Herman”
Definition of “would you still love me if I was a worm?”
This episode : *is called The Worms*
Me : This is going to be about the Corruption right ?
This episode : Let's talk about the Buried.
Me : OH FOR FUCK S-
Hi Alex! Sorry i´m late.
Can I say I would die for you, James? Your comments on each episode give me life!
@@Noah-xc3vd you can say whatever you want. It's a free country
I love Helen, "Yas Martin~" I'm here for it
Oh, Worm?
Oh, worm
I’m sorry “wormish body” I can’t, this is hilarious to me
Martin was born for the life
One must imagine sisyphus as a worm.
I hope this is real Martin and not another trick. I'm just so suspicious 😔
I hadn’t even thought of that oh no! :(
Jon would probably know, unless the Eye is fooling him, which seems unlikely given the Eye's nature
i would die for martin
Do you think the Eye ever finds Martin endearing? Like "This is the strange man that follows my favorite around. He thinks my power is cool and likes to talk to my recorders :>"
god i love martin
I'm caught up now QwQ
Martin, never change. Please
I spent the whole episode picturing Worms from All Tomorrows
God I hate the buried.
