Rory and Drew are back and things get... weird.

In this episode, they push Midjourney Video to its limits—trying to animate mushrooms, morph soda cans, and see what happens when you feed it your childhood art.

Along the way, they break down the newest Office Hours updates, upcoming pro features, and the mystery of “unglued photography".

Expect:

  • Creative tests (some failed spectacularly)

  • Deep video coherence takes

  • Sound design debates

    • And a suspicious amount of pasta sauce

    Bonus tangents:

    • Why product morphs make great ad assets

    • Whether Midjourney understands mood

    • A casual existential spiral about sound design

    • And the weirdest prompts of the week (of course)

It’s experimental AI art meets late-night YouTube rabbit hole. Enter at your own risk.
