Putting a tape labeled "MARTHA 15" into the VHS player is a gamble between old cooking shows and crime scene evidence. I'm glad you won that round.

Narrator: "Ann is no long an awkward little girl, but a beautiful woman."
Ann: *planks into the mud*
🤣
As a Canadian I can confirm this is canonically accurate.
That leads to the sequel that highlights Anne’s adult life: Anne of the Mud Wrestling Arena.

"Is Martha relaxed or bored?"
C. High. She's really, really high.
No wonder she's great friends with Snoop
Nah the true answer is she is actually obsessed with those chairs and she has a touch of the tism
Holy shit the secret life of Barbie, I saw a rebroadcasting of that documentary like 15 years ago while down with a fever and thought that I just hallucinated the whole thing for years after. I've never felt so validated in my life
Lmao. Everything is more entertaining when you’re feverish.
This guy is doing everything to the clay that he wanted to do to his pottery teacher.
"I fell in love with Clay"
I can't unsee that scene now
Oh no he's just demoing what he does to the clay when the camera is off
What ever he was making seemed like a pain in the ass.
I loled
>"and then Ken would bash her and she'd bash him back, and then Francie would try to kind of get in the middle of it and then they' both bash Francie"
omg that had me rolling
That was both really funny but also is she fucking ok?
@@Outcast115 Yea it sounds like she kinda has some unresolved issues..
she was francie 😭😭 man her childhood mustve been rough
Having played with dolls and toys with my own daughters, in a genuinely stable household, can confirm that imaginations get ridiculous. My heart goes out to that Barbie fan if she really was play-acting what she saw in her home life, but odds are she was like every other kid and just enjoying playing with absurdity.
"And then Grandpa Pig ate Mummy Pig and Daddy Pig, and then Peppa said 'You spit them out Grandpa Pig!' and then Grandpa ate Peppa, but then Rainbow Dash did a sonic rainboom on Grandpa Pig's tummy and they went PYWOOOOOSH out of his tummy like, 'AAAAAAH THANK YOU RAINBOW DAAAASH'" -- My 4-year-old

"The Presto Tapes" sounds like something you'd hear on an obscure conspiracy theory message board.
Or some weird analog horror type shit
It’s a theory about the Presto sauce industry.
The idea is that Presto was made out of aborted fetuses. And hosting satanic rituals of child sacrifice to make their pasta sauce taste so good.
Tapes were sopposedly found containing footage of the sacrifice.
Unfortunately they had the wrong company it was actually Ragu.
Don't give them any ideas...
The Presto Tapes were found in the backrooms
It would be a good ARG name lol
I can tell you exactly how Martha Stewart got so famous. Between her show and her magazine, her career was this perfect amalgamation of everything a bored housewife might want to try, from crafts, recipes, home improvement, DIY projects, gardens, potted plants, minor yard and landscape work, etc.. all presented by a woman who at least seemed very wholesome on screen, and made it all look easy for any other middle-aged woman to do everything she did. Keep in mind that this was before there was very much to see on the internet. Before Facebook, Pinterest, Tik Tok, Etsy, and wherever else people get this kind of content from. She was like the 90's version of Julia Child, but did far more than just cooking.
People like my mom watched the show religiously every day it aired, subscribed to the magazine, bought her branded kitchenware.. she had deals with some major store like Walmart or Home Depot I think, for selling her brand of gardening and home DIY tools. She just found the perfect niche at the right time, before the internet really evolved and random people on social media started sharing home and garden tips.
And then she engaged in insider trading and became a felon, which tarnished her reputation a little bit.
And the thing about Martha too was that she came along during the time when being a housewife or a stay-at-home mom was really looked down upon by society, even by other women who saw it as a relic of the past. We were just coming out of the yuppie era (Working Girl, anyone?).
I had a home ec teacher in high school who loved Martha, because she made it respectable to be a homemaker again. It's easy to dismiss Martha's work as being "things for bored housewives to do", but she really did legitimize in the eyes of the public work that women had been doing mostly thanklessly since the start of the industrial revolution, if not earlier.
thanks squidward
Oh I see. Thanks for explaining 🙂
@@wormdoodles that’s a really interesting addition, as a person born in late 90’s and living outside of USA seeing the social changes of another time and country is fascinating.
I thought she just avoided taxes.
My head canon is that Martha Stuart is such a good cook/ home maker that she’s apathetically unimpressed with all of our guests tips and tricks
Based on her stuff with Snoop, I just think she's always blasted
I am a huge Martha fan and have been for 30 years. The woman taught me so many things that I cherish from baking to crafting to homesteading. She is incredibly intelligent and has a huge knowledge base on so many topics from food to travel to homesteading to fine furniture to vintage dishes to wine and on and on. She. gets interested in something and she learns everything about it. Her memory must be incredible. She has such an interesting history from being a model to a Stockbroker to a caterer to a magazine founder to a CEO of a large corporation and TV host. She definitely had a weirdly flat affect in the early days. Im not sure why she felt the need to come off so unimpressed. She did have a huge knowledge base but she seems to love learning so I don’t believe she was ever truly bored by a guess explaining something. She spent her life teaching people like me about all the things she loves so it makes no sense to come off as uninterested in what a guess was teaching, no matter how basic. Her affect has changed a lot as she’s gotten older. Now she laughed a lot more and is able to laugh at herself- something she NEVER did in the old days. She was also really impatient with children in the early days because they couldn’t execute whatever they were doing as perfect as Martha would. But that has also changed a lot over the years as she learned to let go and had her own grandchildren.
@@daneekaplan4284 woah she did a lot of big things! thanks for sharing! never knew of her true impact; i grew up in a different world where i only knew the SNL version of Martha.
She's good at cooking the books
@@daneekaplan4284 I can understand her coming off as being unimpressed when she is trying to learn something. A lot of people I know get exceptionally quiet when they are concentrating real hard on listening, and sometimes, they come off as bored or uninterested.
I was shocked at how well that spaghetti pie held together. It's a meal in itself, but it would make a great snack. It seems so simple yet delicious.
DELICIOUS.
Looks pretty dry to me tbh
Seems like crunchy dried out spaghetti
Thanks Martha!
EXTREMELY delicious
It's so interesting how Martha comes across as bored, apathetic, relaxed, or passive-aggressive to different people. I guess it goes to show how our biases influence what we see, how our expectations for hosts have shifted over time, and how we all read social cues differently.
It's because she was putting on an act the entire time. She wasn't that sort of person atall, she was a very underhanded, backstabby intelligent criminal, hence how she got away with it for so long. People pick up on that, ever been around a sociopath? Do their damnedest to smile and make sure you don't know they are tareing everything apart behind your back lol "I do ALL this cooking and housey things, and that's a GOOOOOD thing *souless smile while she steals lots of money*"
truly the rorschach test of home living
@@CrashHeadroom dude she sold a stock she's hardly a psychopath
@@JuniperHatesTwitterlikeHandles I said Socio, not psycho... also not sure if you are serious or not o.O.
@@CrashHeadroom I think the "Martha Steward is a felon" meme exaggerates her crime because it is funny. You really don't have to be a sociopath for casual financial crime... The woman wasn't running some kind of conspiracy, she illegally sold stock once and only because a friend of hers gave her insider information.
"Is Martha relaxed or bored?"
I'm voting "relaxed". Like you said, she's pals with Snoop lol... Explains why she likes food so much too!
That’s not fair; she isn’t just relaxed or bored. There’s also the times she’s almost insulting passive aggressive.
So she's basically Garfield then?
Marfield. Marfield Mewerd.
Third option: drugs
@@kenirainseeker539 that's exactly what op meant when they said Marta is friends with snoop and liking food
Maybe Martha is just an introvert, and she can't be bothered to muster up enthusiasm for anything but food.
I can relate.
Mmm perhaps
Yeah, mhmm, yep, uh huh.
I was thinking the same thing. Food also makes me more lively
@@thomasluera3412 I tried to eat yesterday and food almost killed me.
"It's almost as sad as Rick's entire family was, after he f*ckin' biffed the ice cream challenge."
My biggest laugh out loud moment of the entire video. Thank you.
I wish I had kept all my old VHS tapes. I'd send them to you. I used to tape stuff off TV all the time, and I'd often leave in the commercials.
Small side note: When I got my own VCR, the first thing I ever taped off TV was the Simpsons episode, where Bart falls down a well.
It’s even better as it’s being compared to kmarts downfall
"That's almost as sad as Rick's entire family was after he fucking biffed the ice cream challenge."

@@cal5365 Suddenly, the term "Real Doll" has a new meaning
It's terrifying, sure, but it's a new one
Heck I'm not a barbie fan and even I want to watch it. It looks amazing.
Not in the doll community, but I second this. Looks fascinating.
If live fo see it too! Ian please upload it!
Considering that Martha Stewart is a good friend of Snoop Lion, and has been for years, I like to imagine she's just high as a kite for most of the segments.
It makes sense to me. The relaxed demeanor (bordering on boredom or lethargy) during most of the segments, the excitement when it's time to make some food, and the fact she came up with Spaghetti Pie and thought it would make a good 'snack'.
This is one of those moments where it just makes too much sense and now I cannot think of these scenes in any other way
That’s what I thought, but I looked it up and apparently she doesn’t really smoke that much. Though she didn’t start out as a host, she was a caterer turned cookbook writer turned tv show host as part of a broader media empire, so honestly I don’t think she was ever super notable as a host.
I was thinking that too lol
I dunno, man, I like the fact that it's obvious that Martha isn't acting. She's just being herself, not selling or overhyping stuff nor resorting to flowery words to have us enraptured. I personally find it refreshing to just see an icon like her was simply being themselves even when a camera was rolling.
Glad to see this back, it's my absolute favorite series
Its almost like watching blank tapes is a lucrative deal on youtube....
Me too
This Thanksgiving, I’m Thankful for Brutalmoose and new (and old fave) Mystery Tapes!
I've got heaps of Video8 tapes I want to make a series of, but the machine for playing them died after two.
Spoiler: They're all anime, porn or Hollywood films, likely copied from rented tapes.
Mine too!!!
I love how some of those romantic ads from the 90's have this surreal, dream-like quality to them. Feels like you're gazing into a rose-tinted past that's slowly fading away.
Feels like I should be listening to vaporwave while watching them.
Love hearing someone call Maggi "Magi" like it is some kind of wizard's potion ingredient.
As an Asian-American, full respect for that rice washing segment. People in other countries (The UK is an example) will cook their rice before washing it, leaving it a soggy mess when they put... hot steaming rice... through sink water. 😐 Good to see SOMEONE trying to teach people the correct way to do it.
who in the hell is washing cooked rice im gonna scream and throw up, that should be illegal 😨
@@xxbeinaxx there's a BBC fried rice cooking video by Hersha Patel where she does it and apparently that's not uncommon??? I'm crying
@@digitalbooklett9357 I mean, I don't always rinse my rice (no reason to rinse brown rice, for example), but washing it afterwards is stupid.
Dude yes, I'm Pacific islander and rice is a daily must.
When I used to live in california, This one time I was over at my white friends house for dinner and when they said they cooked rice I was so excited, then horribly disappointed, it was flaky and dry. I don't wanna say they cooked it wrong, but I showed them the japanese style, or at least the way I was taught to prepare rice.
Nah the UK has a large Indian population we know to wash rice. That video was just whatever the fuck the BBC be doing
Every kid I knew growing up had a 'Nails All Over Her Body' Barbie. It's one of those classic toys like "Screams in Agony Whenever You Stretch Him' Stretch Armstrong and 'Only Speaks in Karl Marx Quotes' Teddy Ruxpin.

ian: “i imagine kmart is really nostalgic for anyone who remembers going to one”
what he means: “kmart evokes nostalgia in people who’ve been there”
what i thought he meant: “boy kmart sure misses when anyone even remembered stepping foot in its doors”
I don't doubt Kmart is a bit sad they can't go back to the 90s...Even the 2000s would be better than now. Kmart was a frequent place for shoes and kids clothing for my family when I was a kid. When someone mentioned Kmart sneakers, I understood what that meant.
love this series you do. So creative, so fun, and a nice hit of nostalgia too!
I love Mr Moose 🌈
I get the funeral coverage of Princess Diana isn't big on the "Must watch" list, but it's pretty cool you found that. That's like an actual piece of history.
Props to Ian for sitting through and scanning probably days worth of terrible quality Martha Stewart VHS recordings for our entertainment.
Also I completely forgot that Martha’s a convicted felon and I nearly lost it when you reminded me
I live in the UK and have never been to a Kmart, and will never get the chance to go to one, but found a selection of recorded tapes on the internet that were played in the shops in the 80’s. The random crappy songs are consistently interjected by mentions of Martha Stewart and lawn furniture, as well as kitchenware. The moment I saw that Martha Stewart Kmart ad, there was a moment of wonderful recognition I have no reason having.
i'm an american and fairly young, and one of my earliest memories is waking up at 3 in the morning to the K-mart lightbulb hovering around a white void while the logo fades into the background. there's something comforting about it but also deeply unsettling. shame how they've all closed now.
I installed a couple of those "sun tunnels" when I was younger. They really "don't" work that well. When the sun's at the right angle to it it gives a good amount of light, but that's only for like an hour a day. Otherwise it's no more light than a blinded window.
Interesting! The place I currently live has one in the bathroom and it has basically eliminated the need for lights during the day. Maybe it has something to do with location, not only on the house but on the Earth.
Grecian 5 is the weirdest name I've ever heard of for a hair dye, or pretty much any product to be honest. Grecian 5 sounds more like a planet from Star Trek.
You could say the hair dye is. “Out of this world”.
Or that one SpongeBob meme, can't remember it rn exactly, blue number 7 or something?
Mr. Krabs misidentifies it as Coral Blue #2 Semi-Gloss; Spongebob starts to correct him but gets cut off before he can say the number.
Name needs some work, but the announcer rhymes....spitting fire.
I'm confused how some planets have numbers in their name when there's multiple named after the same thing. One planet was called wolf with a string of numbers
Oh my god I remember the german version of "The Big Moment"! There was an episode where a dad had to learn all the 151 original pokemon so he could recognize them via looking at their sprite. Great moment of TV that I'll never forget.

As a real estate agent in the Washington area, I have toured countless homes with Sun tunnels and they really do a lot for spaces bathrooms with no windows, but don't create the problems like maintenance and cleaning that a skylight can create. Sun Tunnels are the goat.
That lady bashing the barbies together in a domestic dispute was really surreal to me. Never thought of regular adults roleplaying with their toys like we did as kids.
I think they might be describing how they played with them as children? Especially the second clip, where all the verbs are in past tense.
Brutalmoose is a stealth youtube pooper. I could watch hours of his edits on all this old footage.
I love this series and I immediately got super sad for the ice cream guy when he failed. Things like that come with such a strong feeling of powerlessness for me.
Other RUclipsrs: sneakily put ads in the middle of the show and annoy me
Me: literally always skips it
Ian: politely puts his advertisement at the end of the video, puts effort into making it an entertaining skit
Me: for you Ian I will watch it.
I also love that he upfront says "There's gonna be a promotion at the end of the video so don't watch it if you don't want to."
Brutalmoose, I have been a fan for years. I have watched every video you have ever made.
Mystery Tapes has and will continue to be a core memory in my adult life. I am very nostalgic and love to reminisce over a simpler, albeit still technological, time.
Thank you for making these. I am writing this to you to humbly ask for more. That perhaps my small voice will be enough to push you to make just that one more episode. To push through what is doubtlessly countless hours and hard work for you and possible doubt about the continuation of the series. You have given me and my loved ones a fond memory together with each unique episode. So thank you.
Damnit, I love mystery tapes.

Oh man, the Martha clips unearthed a forgotten memory for me. I used to watch this show called "Whatever, Martha" which was basically Martha's daughter and her friend roasting various segments from her show. Not sure how well it holds up now, but at the time I got a kick out of it. Anyway, great work as usual, Ian! Still love the Mystery Tapes series!
I remember that show! She was so snarky, I loved it.
I was gonna comment something similar! I really got a kick out of that show and I can see Ian riffing off of it or getting some inspo lololol
yes, i remember my mom showing me that show!! wat a nostalgia trip
I have exactly one brief recollection of the day tape 4 was recorded. I was in elementary school, it was just after breakfast, and my mom was standing in front of the TV, yelling to my dad in the next room "I can't find anything for the kids to watch, every fucking channel is just Princess Diana's funeral!" The memory ends there, but it's a little crazy to think that somewhere else in the world, at that very moment, that one specific little plastic tape was ticking away in someone's VCR.
Why is every brutalmoose serie so amazing? Games, Movies, Tapes, Food, brutalmoose is the goat!
I always remember that episode of Fraiser where the Cranes went to the Antiques Roadshow with their antique clock from their ancestor and believed they are descendants of the Romanovs the Russian Royals but it turned out that their ancestor was just a maid who worked for the Romanov's
I've watched my fair share of Antique shows and sometimes that really happens
OK. I am from the UK and I remember when Diana died and everyone recorded it. I don't know why, but for some fucking reason that just MADE sense back then. We used to record everything. When was the last time you recorded something? It's been at least 25 years for me.
Anyway, I am just shocked to see that even AMERICANS record the funeral. WHY?! Did we think we were going to rewatch it? Hey! Gather up the kids, lets watch Diana's funeral again.
I'd be surprised if even ONE person can say that have watched it more than once. And if you did, please please please tell me why.
Anyway great episode. This is the best show on youtube.
It was probably considered a historic event or something, so maybe a ‘someone can look back on this later’ thing? Just a guess
I remember a hearse driving very slowly while people threw flowers at it. I also remember remembering the Megadrive or Playstation was upstairs.
American here, I also don't understand why a nonzero number of Americans care about British royalty. Kinda contradicts our whole theme.

I've always loved Martha Stewart, but I completely forgot how laid back and calm she is on her show. It's nice to see, actually. I've gotten so used to these loud, overly-excited, overly-positive show hosts that she does come across as super relaxed.
A relaxing host I enjoy is Julia Child. Something about it has a comfy home vibe to it and Julia herself is very genuine
A lot of 90s and early 2000s cooking shows were like that. Calming shows where a nice lady in an expensive kitchen taught you how to make something.
There's a recent show called Baked in Vermont (nothing to do with pot) that's a lot like that. Just nice to watch.
there's a reason snoopdog and Martha became good friends.
@@DipseyDex I absolutely love their friendship. Snoop is such a sweetheart, I swear. The cutest thing I ever saw was the behind the scenes of the filming of Bones where the director was commenting on how he was crushing on Pam Grier. It was so cute.

Are they the same business too? Logo and all? I am curious
@@RiceNoodlestw Yeah, they are all owned by the Kmart group from my understanding.
@@GtoZeren just dug a little deeper, they are super similar in branding and concept but not the same. Thats cool to know, do they have blue light specials?

I don't know if they were all the same but I know why my K-mart died. While Walmart, Target and Publix were upgrading into the new millenia or...yah know, doing basic renovations K-mart still looked like it did in the 60's. I mean kids would literally dare each other to go inside the clientelle was so seedy. Just guys in trench coats with pedo staches, ghosts and leaking cielings as far as the eye could see; that's my last memory of K-mart.

I’m actually a bit familiar with Michael Holigan, interesting fella. Texas based as you said, big into real estate, land development, etc.
He built up a successful website in the early days of the Internet with a lot of housing information and selling various home goods and such.
He was also big into stock car racing and motocross. I’m most familiar with him because in 2000 he sponsored Jerry Nadeau’s #25 NASCAR Winston Cup Series Chevrolet.
Jerry actually pulled off a win in the Michael car, winning the 2000 NAPA 500 which (at that time) was to be the last NASCAR race broadcast on ESPN.
I'm so happy, I love your mystery tape series. Been so long since the last one that I've been going through my own
Really happy to be making more Mystery Tapes! I didn't mean to have such a large gap between series, I just didn't have any fresh tapes for a little while there.
I hope your own Mystery Tape journey has been fruitful!
@@brutalmoose been finding a bunch of great commercials and old Canadian programming, it's really cool and entertaining to go through all the old content like a time capsule of the period it was recorded
If you plan on making another Brutal foods, I'd love to see you try to make the "spaghetti pie" based on nothing more than the content of that VHS tape.
You'd think it would be good to watch but I feel like spaghetti pie is the 90's equivalent of what housewives were doing back in the 50's encasing everything in gelatin.
It would be like "yup, it's cold spaghetti..."

The clown commercial legitimately seems like something in an analog horror series on youtube. The strange timeless void they seem to be trapped in with that clown is just too eerie
We had this "The Big Moment" format here in Chile too, it was actually based on a japanese show were a member of a family had to past a test usually an acrobatic one. They had one week to train the test and then they had ONE chance to do it in the studio and like 2 to 3 minutes to do it. It was actually a pretty beloved show in Chile. It was known as "Si se la puede, gana" sorta like "If you can do it, you win"
The UK had a show where some random member of the public had a week to train to do some dangerous Hollywood-style stunt.
Spoiler: death.

Mystery tapes is by far my favorite "series/show" on RUclips and it inspired me to start collecting them myself!
Haha. Thats hilarious, the billions of unused tapes go from their original shelf to your shelf unused. I get it tho, my grandma recorded everything, everything. We had in our house at least 1k tapes. Doubt they are still around.
Just have to say I love how you recorded this with that old VHS box style resolution. Apparently it is viewable without the black borders in the default view. I never knew you could upload and view it like this. Pretty cool man.

My grandmother usually babysat me, so i grew up watching tons of Martha Stewart. One of my favorite things about Martha is her dry sense of humor.
i just wanted to say thank you for everything over the years, ive watched your channel since the Isle of the Dead/Lego City days, your channel has grown so much and it puts a smile on my face to see your videos still, thank u !!!!!!!

My RUclips feed is so different now than it was 8-9 years ago, or even just 3-4 years ago… but through all of the changes and creators who I’ve lost interest in or have faded away, the one consistently high quality channel has been Brutalmoose. Even though his content is very different now, he still feels authentic and true to himself, like every video he makes is for him rather than an algorithm and that just makes his videos so much more fun to watch than any other creator I’ve seen
I always enjoy how Moose posts videos right when I need them. He disappears and then reappears to brighten my day, love ya Ian
Ian: ”I lose my appetite when I see streched cheese in commercials”
That same Ian: ”I am advertising cereal by vomiting milk on it. That should sell well!”
I wouldn't be mad about a Martha-Stewart-Tape-Episode. Thank you for your wonderful content.
"Allow me to clue you in: Martha Stewart is a convicted felon-" really got me. 03:57
I've never stopped watching a NFL game for anything else until now...happy Thanksgiving moosemcmystery
ehh shit game anyway, this will be much more entertaining
Richard totally scotching the ice cream challenge is one of the most hilariously depressing things I have ever seen
such a magical window into the past, there really isnt anything like what youre doing here Ian. Hope for many more years
20:02 holy shit the swearing caught me off guard - everything else was so chill and then that lmao
10/10
To be fair, seeing the way those two cook together would make me swear too.
The king is back
"does video games produce violence"
*cuts to Bill Cosby commerical*
I cannot put into words how much I love this series. Growing up, my dad worked at an electronics store where he always brought home VCR players, and TVs. But the best part was when people left their tapes in the players and we got to watch a fun movie. I remember watching the commercials still though. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the top notch content.
All of this VHS stuff just makes me yearn for more Televoid
Give Yona "it's sex" and Zoe "skinny little thing" a reddit account each, AND LET THEM FIGHT!
You can bet Zoe was going to say something other than "thing" before stopping herself.
Zoe Lescaze is an actress, but is also a writer, and has written a book called "paleoart". From the amazon bio for the book "Zoë Lescaze is a freelance writer based in New York City, where she was born and raised. She studied art history, studio art, and anthropology at Bowdoin College, and has worked as an archaeological illustrator in Cameroon. Currently an art critic and journalist, her writing has appeared in ARTnews, Artforum, and Even, among other print and online publications."
I need more mystery tapes now. I just rewatched all of them. IM foaming at the mouth for more
I love the way you use genuine archival terminology and act like we're digging through a cozy museum, and the jazz is just the cherry on top my god THE JAZZ.
"Keep it to yourself, man. Save that sssshit for the dark web." Is probably one of my favorite new Brutalmoose quotes.
I love this series. The fact that you film it on VHS adds so much character.
Mr. Moose, I gotta say, your videos are a GODSEND for the mornings.
The calm pacing, delivery, and humor help ease-in my day, contrary to blasting my brain with high-speed TikToks upon waking.
New morning routine established - Thanks Brutal!!!
22:35 "I could watch this shit all day"
Exactly how I feel about this series
We had the show "the big moment" in sweden as well, I remember loving watching it because the prices wasnt just money it was a pile of things each family member have always wanted. Which made it much more enticing. Also PLEASE IAN RIP AND UPLOAD THE BARBIE DOC WE NEED IT
15:58 Zoe actually grew up to be a fairly successful writer! Good for her.
Is that the same Zoe? Wow!
What's her full name?

Hi Ian, just a small correction. At 28:55 you mention that there are only 17 stores remaining golbaly. While that number is true for the united states, there are hundreds of Kmart stores (owned by a different company) in Australia and New Zealand. Other than that, really enjoyed the video. Keep up the good work!
Out here nailing the look of 20XX, love the mystery tapes every time.
I was thinking “damn would really love a new brutalmoose video” and then it materialized in front of me. Thank u
Ian I came to your channel for Brutalfoods and stayed for retro game, movies, and VHS review. Keep up the good work, I'm glad you finally did another mystery tapes
17:53 I had a tape of Diana'a funeral. I watched it all in parts.
Looking back, that's 312 minutes I will never get back.
Sifting through collections of television recordings is a hobby of mine as well. I love when a new mystery tapes is uploaded. It's such an obscure hobby and most people really don't seem to get it so it's fun to see someone else finds and their take on the material. Also, Ian is really likeable; as reflected by his high views for such an infrequent uploader (not a criticism) and the esoteric subject.
I watch the junk food review vids simply for Ians enerntainment value but if it was axed for more vhs mystery tapes I would love it.
Please never stop making this series. Seriously, you're the best channel on RUclips.
Yah it's mystery tapes one of if not my fave series from you! I love the retro asthetic and how authentic it is with you using an actual tape based camcorder! And it being in 4:3 ratio. It hits my love of the 90s / 80s so much!! Thank you again my dude!
I just want you to know that the clever editing on the dandelion ad was appreciated.
This series is so awesome, hope it keeps comin!
