Just do Wednesday podcasts/gaming couch play hangouts. You’re like our childhood brought back to us as adults. And even alone, the two of you have such great chemistry talking about melee or stuff besides melee. I love your perspectives on other video games, anime, and even just hearing about your lives. Congrats on getting married, Toph!
dude yes. The hole that gooteks and miguel ross left behind would be easily filled by scar and toph playing sf or any other fighting game imo. I know filling shoes is anxiety inducing but i think they would forge their own path which i would fucking love.
I've been enjoying Reads in the Streets more than their Melee content as of late. Fills the void left by Excellent Adventures. And we still get to see Mike Ross doing stuff with Versus Vortex that is entertaining as hell.
As someone who has followed you guys since early scar and toph show days, I really enjoy when these types of episodes come out. Just having you two in front of a mic talking about anything is phenomenal content that I'd like to see more of.
I would love, love, love a series of with you guys watching through historic melee top 8s and sharing stories, doing some analysis, or talking about what it meant for the narrative. Something similar to what was done during 5 Days of Melee.
The intersection of melee and philosophy/metaphysics is my favorite part of what you guys do. I also think you guys are in a great position to discuss anime or shows. Wouldn’t have watched ping pong without you guys
I really just like hearing you guys talk :) games are cool and I definitely came for the melee in the beginning but I stayed for the introspective conversations you have amongst yourselves or with guests. It's a good reminder we're all humans trying to get through life at the end of the day. Love watching regardless of what it is you guys put out!
god I love scar and toph in the same room for any length of time talking about anything. amazing voices and personalities on the mic with amazing chemistry.
You guys became a commentary duo because how well you guys can go on for hours about nothing and still be entertaining. I'm primarily a VOD watcher, and hope you guys just find the time to do a scar & toph show-like segment so i can keep hearing you guys talk. Thanks
Some more scar and toph show style content would be amazing! Always enjoyed the deep thinking discussions about philosophy with melee mixed in as well. Very excited to see what you two do in the future!
i love the reads specifically because the dynamic of one person trying to play while the other two pontificate is incredible and unmatched. that said id basically watch anything with yall chilling and talking in it also imagine u get mango to do dnd with yall
I'm a Dungeon Master who does YT Content, loves melee, and hosts a live campaign with my fellow Pokemon friends on YT as well. Shooting my shot. I couldn't get into Baulders gate because I love DMing so much. Writing stories for my players and coming up with new worlds is one of my biggest passions. Even if I'm not the person, I'd love to see it from you all.
Here's an Idea: I would like to have Scar and Toph come out to support a San Francisco local at Abbey Tavern which occurs every Tuesday in the inner Richmond neighborhood at 5th avenue and Geary blvd at 7:30pm and we also have some events on Saturdays sometimes. That would be hype. We've had 51 total weekly events counting the series we ran across the park at Blackthorn tavern earlier in 2023
Would absolutely listen to a weekly podcast with you guys and watch you play through the mgs games and fromsoft titles. You guys have such wonderful insights and chemistry, would love to watch some gameplay of you two on a couch playing some video games
Comments seem to be pretty all over the place, I'd say my top priority is just hearing you guys talk about whatever random stuff enters your heads lol like someone was saying mgs might have too much cutscenes/dialogue so as long as the vibes keep going during that any format is good for me. Happy to see you back at it, keep it up ❤
I like watching you guys play games especially SF6 lately, but what I really love is when you tell stories or get philosophical. Whatever format you choose, so long as you guys keep talking I'll keep watching
As someone who’s been a fan through my twenties, seeing your friendship grow over the past decade and hearing you two talk has left a big impression on my life So even if it’s not often, I would love more discussion-based content like this. Whatever the content is, thanks for always coming back to us, Scar and Toph ❤
I think melee regularly with another game/podcast on the side would be fire. Having some kind of goal you guys are going for when playing ranked makes it super fun. Trying to get fat win streaks, improving secondaries, talking about philosophy, stuff like that. A podcast or a separate playthrough would be dope, too. I'd personally like to see you guys play Rivals of Aether online. It's the second best, "Smash" type game that has the most in common with Melee. It would be sick to see you work from the ground up and pick mains 🤞
would love a call in segment and a watch through! i would love a return of the scar and toph show, but please dont stop going on ranked! its so fun to watch you guys play
I dig the idea of doing a let’s play together on non-melee games. I feel like that could help anchor the convo and reduce the amount of classic S&T tangents
Would love to see you goys do a patreon thingy. Weekly show with a guest. 3 part show, gameplay, hang out/talk, live q&a. Upload only gameplay to yt. OR just mix all of the 3 in a live stream and cut half of it for youtube. I'd pay for that, especially if it's as chill as your Toph/Scar & Scar/Toph shows always were. By far the best atmosphere, imo, was your show on season 1 and 2 on yt. That couch hang out setup with office backdrop was gold. Podcasts are waay to clean nowadays. Never feels intimate and cozy. A couch with drinks and the camera a little further away to bring in the room would go a long way to create a hang out vibe imo. Your current setup is good, just not as big. Love you guys, been watching you since 2015 or so. Greetings from germany.
I'm a longtime DM and huge fan of you guys. I would be so excited to see you play. Damn, I wish i was in California. Don't settle for an online campaign though. In person is a lot more fun. The logistics of filming it are actually quite complicated though. Toph Bloodborne would also be so fun.
i would literally watch and or listen to any form of content the two of you produce, i like both of your approaches to real life and in game situations. The falco sophie story was really funny
Honestly, listening to The READS has been a genuine pleasure and a privilege. As a longtime audience member, I would like to see the games that I play of course (Melee, SF6 -- been playing a bunch btw, Juri and Ryu and Ken are loads of fun -- and whatever other games) but ultimately I think that so long as The Reads has a future I will be happy.
Honestly, I would just love to see you guys take on new challenges and work together to learn and overcome the challenges. I love the reads and reads in the streets, but the arc of you guys learning and climbing the ladder of SF6 was super fun and I watched every episode. You guys could try speed running, lets plays, competitive ladder climbs, I just want to see you guys learn and adapt to hard games and become godlike.... all with great commentary :D
I think an important aspect of the "not having to do anything" is to teach them that their action or inaction will likely come with consequences, whether those be positive or negative
About the spears vs swords thing at around 28:30 , you should look up spear vs knife sparring; The results are shocking. The knife user can parry the spear tip and grab the spear and move in, so it comes down to that one interaction.
Personally I fell in love with the Scar and Toph show and had been watching since season 1. It was completely unique in the community and helped spread insight and perspective as well as personal anecdotes that couldn’t be found anywhere else in the community. I’ve probably watched every episode 2-3 times while falling asleep over the years. It especially helped give top players a platform to let their personality show. PPU is one of my favorite players of all time and that wouldn’t be the case if he wasn’t on your show to express himself to an audience. Not to say the reads is bad, but I could find net play content on CZcams and twitch if I wanted. There was NOTHING like the scar and toph show. And there never will be.
I'd love a Scar and Toph show to start the year. Melee been through it rough this year, would feel cool to have a Scar and Toph show to give some of that ferver we're lacking rn ❤️
i’ll watch whatever y’all put out. i was cold on reads in the streets at first but it’s grown on me a lot. i’d absolutely love to see y’all go through a from software game, or other games too prefer not live mainly because sometimes streamers seem to assume everyone has chat open and can read it making vods less watchable but i trust you guys to make it good i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again, scar and toph content is the only content on the internet that i’ll watch sight unseen
I'll gladly take anything from y'all but I would LOVE a recurring series going through the history of the game both as a meta and as a subculture. Obviously there's no shortage of that stuff out there but I think y'all's special sauce is uniquely suited for it.
would be great to see some classic games get resurrected like reads in the streets (of yesterday). a guest could bring in a game from their childhood etc. might be logistically tough but it sounds fire to me
Sekiro would be awesome because I've been meaning to play it too. podcast style chats with guests would be really cool. keeping things loose and switching it up all the time would be great
Dear reads, I really like the reads with guests based on current events, like having Jmook on right after winning his first major was so topical and helped evolve the storylines of the times. Keep doing that!
Scar and Toph show (podcast) format can be great, I feel like it's better suited to talking to guests and you can work in playing some melee at the end like classic S&T or 4 stocks each 2v1 against guest if a pro. The best part of the show is when you guys share your deliberations and perspectives on life imo; I think the show should take inspiration from a show like Nightcap, start with melee topics and like you've always done offer genuine critique or ideas and make connections with real life maybe have a livestream after tournaments for viewers to come in and talk about the best sets, 'hot takes', and pull comments from the audience on live. Best of luck to both of you guys, you got this!
I would LOVE to see a MGS playthrough on The Reads! I think doing playthroughs of games you guys find fun would be awesome! Playing some new stuff, or even something old. I would love to see y'all play through F-Zero GX's story mode!
YOOO what is up guys hope all is well! I really appreciate this video watching you guys just talk is super entertaining to me. I love Reads in the Streets actual S tier content IMO. The reads is also great. Also, I love critical role so hell yea watching you guys play DnD would be dope as well albeit from a channel perspective I don't know how it would do statistically but I'd definitely tune in. Terrible times sounds like a fun watch definitely play the FromSoft games. I'm chill either way in terms of live vs prerecorded Scar and Toph show stuff I'm sure mixing it every now and then is fine. Im with Toph you guys should totally play more fighting games! co-streams of events could make for some great commentary content as well. Thanks for the fire content my guys we totally get the struggle so take your time with it. Happy holidays!
Big fan of the reads! Would also be down to see you guys play through other games sometimes, also having guests in person or video/voice call would be exciting
Not sure if this is helpful input, but regardless of if it’s random video games, scar and toph show w/ or w/o callers, or whatever scar and toph related I would happily watch. However, to be a bit more specific I think the melee audience will always show up for melee and I think that the chemistry between you two will have new ways to flourish if you do play throughs of other games. For example, how y’all would relate other games to melee or downtime in a game leading to stories we as the audience haven’t heard. Lastly, I know the logistics of getting guests is a problem in itself, but the idea of getting melee guests to play games that aren’t melee I think could be very interesting.
The idea of you guys turning to lets players sounds great. I come here to watch you guys as entertainers, not really for SF or Melee Seeing there was a podcast/update style video was far more enticing to me over your usual videos.
I think both are you are amazing at bridging the melee scene with FGC. I'm still very new to fighting games along with probably much more melee enjoyers and would love to see what it takes to be at the heart of both great sides of the fighting game coin (especially any stories of FGC and melee players)
I will miss the guest appearances if that's something you'll struggle to include going forward. It would be great to get to know more melee personalities that don't stream
Obviously you two have great chemistry and connections, so whatever you do, I think it will be great. The only thing I want is consistency, uploading videos (or doing streams) on a regular schedule.
"Just remember one thing, you can try and take our melee away, you can take my controller, my GameCube, my CRT, I'll tell you something i'll play melee in my fucking mind, as long as melee lives, i will play and if you take it all we'll fucking play in a garage 20 people hot sweaty zain vs mango behind the 7/11 for 25 fucking bucks" -The Goat
I always like more melee content especially with mid tier characters and lesser seen characters. Especially if the player is really good with them like Franz.
Big idea. Probably dumb. Get a representative for each character in Melee. I think that could have a ton of potential for educational or flashy matches. I don't know, I think it would be cool to see character studies about the lower tiers. Something cool about character specialists.
with radio melee gone and mang0s podcast being twice a month we need a weekly melee podcast. id love a scar and toph show every week. but the reads is also so great. if ya'll could do both that'd be great, but a podcast could pop the fuck off
Do a live call in show about melee. Take the "Hotline League" model where people have hot takes or things to talk about regarding melee and you guys respond to the community. You can have guests to respond to takes as well. A 2 hour podcast like this would be fun to watch live and on VOD. I would also like to watch you guys play games
Well it just so happens that I'm a DM, I've been running games for about 6 years now and have been doing it professionally for 2 years. If you're interested in starting a D&D campaign, there are plenty of DMs who would jump at the chance to run for you guys. I tend to run low fantasy, political "Game of Thrones" esque games where consequences really matter and my players love that because it actually makes them think about their actions
If you do play on doing more of the other fighting games, I only just got into Under Night In-Birth and Melty Blood, and I heard that Under Night is getting a new installment with rollback netcode pretty soon, so I'd tune into that if you try that out, but really I'll probably tune into most things you two choose to play together, heh. Thanks y'all~
I like scar and toph shows personally. If they were on Spotify tho it would go crazy.
Agree 100%
facts
Hard agree
Just do Wednesday podcasts/gaming couch play hangouts. You’re like our childhood brought back to us as adults. And even alone, the two of you have such great chemistry talking about melee or stuff besides melee. I love your perspectives on other video games, anime, and even just hearing about your lives. Congrats on getting married, Toph!
i agree!
I'd love to see more Reads in the Streets. Watching you guys climb the ladder while learning the game was so rewarding and entertaining.
dude yes. The hole that gooteks and miguel ross left behind would be easily filled by scar and toph playing sf or any other fighting game imo. I know filling shoes is anxiety inducing but i think they would forge their own path which i would fucking love.
I've been enjoying Reads in the Streets more than their Melee content as of late. Fills the void left by Excellent Adventures. And we still get to see Mike Ross doing stuff with Versus Vortex that is entertaining as hell.
I forgot how much I missed Scar & Toph talking about random life crap and Melee.
As someone who has followed you guys since early scar and toph show days, I really enjoy when these types of episodes come out. Just having you two in front of a mic talking about anything is phenomenal content that I'd like to see more of.

They're like warrior monks.
Seconded!!
It was Akagi for me, damn I need to rewatch it now.
video title has me hell of nervous
Hell of nervous.
Hell of nervous.
Hell of nervous.
guilty is charged
hell of nervous
I really just like hearing you guys talk :) games are cool and I definitely came for the melee in the beginning but I stayed for the introspective conversations you have amongst yourselves or with guests.

i love the reads specifically because the dynamic of one person trying to play while the other two pontificate is incredible and unmatched. that said id basically watch anything with yall chilling and talking in it
also imagine u get mango to do dnd with yall
oh its still great without guests too btw!
I d enjoy some scar and toph eps that sort of go over recent melee history and year end rankings from the past few years
Please get Plup on Reads in the Streets, his JD goes HARD
"You don't really have to do anything but breathe." That's such a Scar line lmaoo.

That would be hype. We've had 51 total weekly events counting the series we ran across the park at Blackthorn tavern earlier in 2023
taking in phone calls from the fans is a really good idea and a great way to farm easy content, doesnt even have to be melee related
I dig these more podcasty episodes. Anything to get more bobby in my life since he was missing for so long.
Would absolutely listen to a weekly podcast with you guys and watch you play through the mgs games and fromsoft titles. You guys have such wonderful insights and chemistry, would love to watch some gameplay of you two on a couch playing some video games

i definitely wanna see more reads in the streets and the terrific times sounds cool too.

Been a fan since revival of smash .
You guys are awesome . Time flies!!
Yall should bring back guests before everyone retires
would love a call in segment and a watch through! i would love a return of the scar and toph show, but please dont stop going on ranked! its so fun to watch you guys play
I dig the idea of doing a let’s play together on non-melee games. I feel like that could help anchor the convo and reduce the amount of classic S&T tangents
I only got into melee 2 years ago, and I went back and listened to every single scar and toph show. I would love if it was consistent!
Forever DM feeling very respected o7 Salute to all of the fellow perma DMs.
more reads in the street and metal gear lets plays please! you'd be like excellent adventures+game grumps but cooler
They played metal gear?
Would love to see you goys do a patreon thingy. Weekly show with a guest. 3 part show, gameplay, hang out/talk, live q&a. Upload only gameplay to yt.

Toph Bloodborne would also be so fun.

You guys were the best podcasts before podcasts were a thing. Love u guys ❤
podcasts have existed for almost as long as the internet lol.
Would love to watch you guys play bloodborne. That’s one of my favorites
Honestly, I would just love to see you guys take on new challenges and work together to learn and overcome the challenges. I love the reads and reads in the streets, but the arc of you guys learning and climbing the ladder of SF6 was super fun and I watched every episode.

I'm so down for more of these types of Scar and Toph show vids where you guys just talk, I love it so much

I love the scar and toph show a lot
edit: i dont have a preference whether its live or not
I'd love a Scar and Toph show to start the year. Melee been through it rough this year, would feel cool to have a Scar and Toph show to give some of that ferver we're lacking rn ❤️
i’ll watch whatever y’all put out. i was cold on reads in the streets at first but it’s grown on me a lot.

i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again, scar and toph content is the only content on the internet that i’ll watch sight unseen
the thing i love about the toph and scar is how philosophical yall get and how yall grab random concepts and apply them to life and fighting games.
Scar and Toph try DnD would be AWESOME. Just find a good DM to lead yall in the right direction! Would be golden :)
will always enjoy watching "the scar and toph show by any other name"
LOVED these 2 podcast-like episodes. Would watch this every week but sounds like you guys have great idea going into the future! Will watch intently!
I'll gladly take anything from y'all but I would LOVE a recurring series going through the history of the game both as a meta and as a subculture. Obviously there's no shortage of that stuff out there but I think y'all's special sauce is uniquely suited for it.
More Scar & Toph Show would bring me great happiness
Chess content sounds tight too
Anyway, wishing y'all the best with whatever you wanna do
love the reads and also love listening to yall talk, would probably also watch you two play whatever. a lover of all things scar and toph
would be great to see some classic games get resurrected like reads in the streets (of yesterday). a guest could bring in a game from their childhood etc. might be logistically tough but it sounds fire to me
Blind Bloodborne playthroughs are always fun
Sekiro would be awesome because I've been meaning to play it too. podcast style chats with guests would be really cool. keeping things loose and switching it up all the time would be great
Dear reads,
I really like the reads with guests based on current events, like having Jmook on right after winning his first major was so topical and helped evolve the storylines of the times. Keep doing that!
Scar and Toph show (podcast) format can be great, I feel like it's better suited to talking to guests and you can work in playing some melee at the end like classic S&T or 4 stocks each 2v1 against guest if a pro.

Best of luck to both of you guys, you got this!
I would LOVE to see a MGS playthrough on The Reads! I think doing playthroughs of games you guys find fun would be awesome! Playing some new stuff, or even something old. I would love to see y'all play through F-Zero GX's story mode!
If you guys did a weekly podcast talking philosophy and life shit, released it in audio form, I would listen every week
Great to see y’all back on my screen, any Scar and Toph content will always be on the must watchlist !
Metal Gear playthrough would be AMAZING
I will cosign that I would gladly watch you gamers boot up and visit the Streets any time btw.
if y’all ever did a collab again that would be tight. really enjoyed the podcast episode y’all did a while back
I like when you guys play melee with guests, I loved when you guys have shroomed on, that guy is the best
YOOO what is up guys hope all is well! I really appreciate this video watching you guys just talk is super entertaining to me. I love Reads in the Streets actual S tier content IMO. The reads is also great. Also, I love critical role so hell yea watching you guys play DnD would be dope as well albeit from a channel perspective I don't know how it would do statistically but I'd definitely tune in. Terrible times sounds like a fun watch definitely play the FromSoft games. I'm chill either way in terms of live vs prerecorded Scar and Toph show stuff I'm sure mixing it every now and then is fine.

Lastly, I know the logistics of getting guests is a problem in itself, but the idea of getting melee guests to play games that aren’t melee I think could be very interesting.
Going through the Metal Gear Solid series would be DOOOOPE! Even just the first game, it'd make for amazing Scar & Toph content.
I miss radio melee already ;-; hopefully toph and pp get the chance to commentate some sets together in the future ❤
I love seeing scar and toph play MGS that would be so dope. Some of the dialogue scenes are really long though.
I like all the stuff you guys do. Mix it up. Do what's fun.
The idea of you guys turning to lets players sounds great. I come here to watch you guys as entertainers, not really for SF or Melee
Seeing there was a podcast/update style video was far more enticing to me over your usual videos.
coaching someone new into melee would be SO EPIC
ill never get tired of hearing scar and toph talk man
I think both are you are amazing at bridging the melee scene with FGC. I'm still very new to fighting games along with probably much more melee enjoyers and would love to see what it takes to be at the heart of both great sides of the fighting game coin (especially any stories of FGC and melee players)
i already got melee music in the background when watching cuz i uh always got melee goin
as long as the reads go on i get to brag to my fgc friends that it outlived excellent adventures
A spear is kind of a gamble, though. If they DO get past the tip, you're done
Great video, really cool to see the scar and toph show again!
I will miss the guest appearances if that's something you'll struggle to include going forward. It would be great to get to know more melee personalities that don't stream
All you have to do IS breathe! Totally agree Bobby. Love the approach. Now I know what to expect at the future kindergarten conferences 😂
I'VE NEVER GONE ON THE MGS JOURNEY AND I WOULD WATCH TF OUT OF THE METAL GEAR READS SERIES
Obviously you two have great chemistry and connections, so whatever you do, I think it will be great. The only thing I want is consistency, uploading videos (or doing streams) on a regular schedule.
"Just remember one thing, you can try and take our melee away, you can take my controller, my GameCube, my CRT, I'll tell you something i'll play melee in my fucking mind, as long as melee lives, i will play and if you take it all we'll fucking play in a garage 20 people hot sweaty zain vs mango behind the 7/11 for 25 fucking bucks" -The Goat
The MGS games would be sick
I know toph said his hands dont work like they used to but i would love to see BeatMania or rhythm games, or any soulslike or RPG would be so great. 😊
Do whatever fellas. I just wanna see Scar from time to time.
I always like more melee content especially with mid tier characters and lesser seen characters. Especially if the player is really good with them like Franz.
Yall will fall in love with the combat design of Sekiro
Big idea. Probably dumb.
Get a representative for each character in Melee. I think that could have a ton of potential for educational or flashy matches. I don't know, I think it would be cool to see character studies about the lower tiers. Something cool about character specialists.
I've liked every piece of content you guys have made so I'd be down for anything
Dude I gotta say I will never forget being in the wind walker terrible times stream, one of the funniest nights ever it was great
with radio melee gone and mang0s podcast being twice a month we need a weekly melee podcast. id love a scar and toph show every week. but the reads is also so great. if ya'll could do both that'd be great, but a podcast could pop the fuck off
Do a live call in show about melee. Take the "Hotline League" model where people have hot takes or things to talk about regarding melee and you guys respond to the community. You can have guests to respond to takes as well. A 2 hour podcast like this would be fun to watch live and on VOD. I would also like to watch you guys play games
i want to watch you re-commentate the greatest sets of all time with historical context
with guests too
goated idea
Well it just so happens that I'm a DM, I've been running games for about 6 years now and have been doing it professionally for 2 years. If you're interested in starting a D&D campaign, there are plenty of DMs who would jump at the chance to run for you guys. I tend to run low fantasy, political "Game of Thrones" esque games where consequences really matter and my players love that because it actually makes them think about their actions
I think this podcast can be as good as the 6 4. One thing i wouldnt want are viewer questions or calls, it really broke the flow of radio melee
If you do play on doing more of the other fighting games, I only just got into Under Night In-Birth and Melty Blood, and I heard that Under Night is getting a new installment with rollback netcode pretty soon, so I'd tune into that if you try that out, but really I'll probably tune into most things you two choose to play together, heh. Thanks y'all~
Melee content is always what I look forward to. However the DnD idea sounds awesome
lets play format would work very well with yalls banter
