Chapter 1: What is the return of Rooster Teeth about?
Buying back the old thing that you used to own. This milestone marks a new chapter for Rooster Teeth as it returns to the hands of its original creator as part of his company, Box Canyon Productions. Bernie Burns and his company, Box Canyon Productions.
Under Burns' leadership, the historic brand plans to renew its focus on innovation, community engagement, and the spirit of creativity that first defined its success. Burns started Rooster Teeth in 2003 with the breakout success of Red vs. Blue, the longest running web series in history.
Over years, Rooster Teeth expanded into a multimedia powerhouse, hiring incredible stars like Andy Cortez, producing hit shows like Ruby and the international RTX convention series while fostering a passionate global fan base. With his acquisition, Bernie aims to reignite the collaborative and community driven energy that made Rooster Teeth a trailblazer in digital entertainment.
I am excited at the challenge of bringing Rooster Teeth back to its roots, said Burns. The heart of this brand has always been its fans, and I look forward to writing a new chapter together. As an early pioneer of online video content, Rooster Teeth set the standard for how fan-first entertainment could thrive in the digital age.
With Burns back at the helm, fans can anticipate a renewed dedication to Rooster Teeth's original mission to entertain, inspire, and connect. Along with the acquisition, Box Canyon announced a new development slate of productions for 2025, including renewed production of some of the platform's classic shows. A new original audio adventure. Again, is the, I guess, the new audio adventure.
Okay.
Kind of blanking on how the grammar is working there. And an untitled reimagining of Burton's first film, The Schedule. It's back, Mikey.
Big congratulations, first off, to Bernie Burns out there. Congratulations to him, his family, and the team. You know, we'll see who he assembles around him. I think that's the exciting part. It's been eight months since the shutdown originally of Rooster Teeth, right? A lot of people have gone off on their own ways.
We'll see Bernie kind of bring people back or bring on new faces and hopefully create something great. I think he's got the skills for it.

Chapter 2: When is the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct happening?
I think we will see small sort of looks at like different stuff that is down the pipeline. Okay. But I don't know for when I say big reveal. I guess I mean, I don't think we're going to get a 10 minute deep dive into a video game. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think it's going to be God dang, you know, Jessica's on a roof playing the switch. Yes. She goes into her apartment.
We've already talked Brie Larson, Sabrina Carpenter there.
What a combo.
And they're doing the mouse mode and all that stuff. They're showing you what this thing can still do and why it still needs to be in your household, but why it's of hardware that you should be wanting to be able to play these newer video games at higher resolution with hopefully this wireless display.
So what's the timer? Under or over 20? Or do you want to go over and under 30?
Just for context, most Nintendo Directs are about 40 minutes.
well I think that's why maybe it's 30 might be it but we also said what if it's a little bit smaller what if it is I guess yeah I'm thinking most I think yeah I guess I'm thinking like most of those are have at least you know 5 to 10 games being shown in those directs yeah but there's so much hype behind this one you know what I mean I think don't you think it would be a little disappointing if they're like hey this is like a 15 minute 20 minute thing like I feel like they have to go deep dive at least on some of these games
Or is that not June?

Chapter 3: What new features can we expect from the Switch 2?
Not another summertime thing? I guess the question is, are they coming out here and being like, hey, this thing comes out in a month? Because if it comes out in a month and a half, they've got to show everything, pretty much.
That's true. That's an even better point, Raj. I hadn't even considered that. Because I was going to put this at 17 minutes. You were going to go under 20? Yeah, I was going to go under 20.
I would have taken over 20, then.
That's crazy.
I would have taken over 20. The 30-minute mark, I get a little worried about. But I wouldn't take it over 20. Well, then we start playing the game of like, how big is the blowout? Like Roger says, is it smaller? Like you say, like 30 minutes, then it gets kind of big to fill that out. But like, if you're going to go under 20, if you're going to take 17, I'll gladly take over 20 on the pizza bet.
But we both get pizza. We both get pizza. I mean, yeah, I just like I. When I think about. this thing being revealed on April 2nd, and you think that they're going to give it a month between, you're giving it a month of time in between April 2nd and May 2nd. Like that's where you're assuming, Raj, that you think it would come out?
Oh, that it comes out? Yeah, I don't know. I think I see it coming out in June, but I forget when it is. When are people playing this thing? Because remember they have like the Switch experience as well. So we have to factor that into it. Like there has to be enough shown because people are going to be playing this within that month. I believe so. I don't know.
Y'all are getting me more and more excited about this. There's a lot. There's a lot to show. So in my mind, the way I'm looking at it, the way I was looking at it earlier, prior to having my eyes being... My eyes, I need to open. That's from Bloodborne, Mike. You'll play that one day. Um... Especially with Bloodborne Demake got fucking DMCA'd as well.
Nintendo Switch 2 experience is happening April 4th through the 6th, April 11th through the 13th, and April 25th through the 27th.
