    Best answering machine I've ever heard; and it's not like anyone that calls you wouldn't wait through all that just to reach you anyway.

    WHERE CAN I DOWNLOAD THIS RING TONE?
  • YOSUP315
    You're so insensitive! Ringtone is dead!

    I am never calling your number again.

    But seriously, this was so fucking awesome and hiilarious all wrapped up in a phone! RIP, Ringtone.

    Oh that was the funniest thing I've heard all day. Now that's an awesome answering machine. I want it for my phone now
  • Eddie The Lightbringer
    Wow.... That was... where do I even... I actually shed a tear over that, it was so beautiful. Mega props to Brad Jones' wife Jillian for such a beautiful performance.
  • Slowking
    I knew I knew that voice from somewhere. Thanks, that would have driven me nuts.
    Really great performance from both Doug and her!

    LMAO! This was great.


    Makes me want to do this for my voicemail.
    I like to entertain too....


    I betcha if you had a voicemail like this, I don't think anyone would be upset that you didn't pick up. :D

    I know someone else will want to post this, so I'll get it out in the open:

    WHAT ABOUT RINGTONE???

    Anyway, awesome work from Doug and Jillian.

    RINGTONE WILL... OOH. UMM, WE'LL GET YOU ANOTHER RINGTONE.

    I feel they should bring back radio dramas after hearing this.

    This!

    I would totally listen to a "TGWTG Radio Theater" series.
  • AlbertC79  - Well done!!!
    avatar
    I am with polygonalchemist, I think you should do a TGTWG Radio Theater series! I'd listen to it in a heartbeat!

    I must say Doug you are a comedic genious! Very well done!!!
  • Neo Ultra Mike
    Uh, Jesuotaku does a radio drama you know. IN fact an episode of it just aired tonight. WHy don't you watch that?
  • ladydiskette
    avatar
    Heck yeah!

    That would be great!
  • Sir_D

    Yeah, this is Jimmy down at the Jim's Auto. Did, did you want to go ahead and get your tires rotated, too? If you would care to call us back at 555-7452 that would be great... because I don't think we're going to call you again, at this number, ever.

    [Jimmy can be heard yelling in the background in response to some unknown person]

    Yeah, the weirdo left a message on his phone that was a half hour long. I know, I swear this makes the fifth time he's done something like this. I thought I called that radio station that plays old radio show like The Shadow and stuff.
  • Sir_D  - Okay, seriously now
    avatar
    This is just a big slice of awesome. Doug, I know you have a lot on your plate but THIS bit could be a thing in its own right. I'm thinking Intergalactic Nemesis just listening to it. This could be a regular skit with one of the other members of Channel Awesome calling in or even a contest for one of the fans of the site getting a cameo. Sorry, I love old radio broadcasts and am gushing over this bit a bit much. Hope to hear more of these in the future. Solid work on your and Jillian's part, too.

    I don't listen to old radio broadcasts, but I grew up listening to Adventures In Odyssey, a christian series that's about the only nationally broadcast radio drama left in America, along with Focus on the Family's other program, Radio Theater.

    I agree with everyone else, this should be done more often. Radio-type productions can be fantastic with the right dialogue and sound effects providing a chance for the audience to exercise their visual imagination. This really brought me back.
    Thank You.
  • Rowzar  - PLEASE
    Is there any chance you'd put out an MP3 of that ringtone?

    That was too funny. The ending was the best!
  • Ruby Doomsday

    How is it that Jillian was able to do something fun like this? Isn't she like... totally bitchy or something?

    Nah, I'm just making reference to Brad's Cannibal Holocaust commentary last night.

    Seriously, that was pretty rad.

    This was EPIC!

    I agree with the above posters- this should become a regular thing; the people of Channel Awesome doing a radio drama.

    I believe JesuOtaku might be of assistence...

    But even without any additions, this was unbelievably epic. Every day, with practically every new video, you all prove that this site deserves the title Channel Awesome.

    Thank you, Doug, for being That Guy With The Glasses and making all of this possible.

    Yeah, I need to go to bed now. I'm getting mushy even for me... honest, but mushy.
  • Shanetefilmmaker
    It could be called something like Radio Awesome, Or Serial Awesome.
  • BooRat
    avatar
    That was EPIC!! I wish I had an answering machine just so I could put that on there as my out going message!
    I think ya'll need to act this whole thing out now!
  • RedFox0008
    avatar
    Wow.... That was random.

    And totally the best answering machine EVER!!!
  • Nathan Dewey
    About time Jill gets a cool cameo!
  • Lossthief
    avatar
    And then I came. Everywhere.

    But seriously, that was funny as hell. Now I feel like I have to set something up like that as my voicemail, just to fuck with people.

    TALLY-HO!
  • j4w3z
    Who ever wrote that story should make a movie that was genius no story have ever make me care for a character I've never seen and in such short time poor Cellphone-Man; we're going to miss you Ringtone (and the orphans and kittens)
  • Relaxo
    avatar
    Yay Jillian! :D
  • The_Awesometeer
    avatar
    I was just picturing what she would look like as Ringtone.... :)

    She looked good
  • Tindy
    avatar
    Oh my god, that was amazing. XD
  • rockybalboa211  - Jillian is truly the gem of team snob!
    avatar
    I shall forever remember you Ringtone, and your noble sacrifice to save the not-already dead orphans :(

    I guess it took Doug several weeks of skipping work to make this voicemail possible. If I had the talent of Doug Walker, I would do the same! :D
  • Undertaker91
    avatar
    this was hilarious! i was so moved by Ringtones death but at the same time i was laughing my ass off. how can something be so serious yet so funny? u gotta do something like this again, its just too epic for human understanding
  • FMStudio

    Oh my god! That made my night! XD

    MORE DOUG MOOOOOOOORE,We need MOOOOORE Adventures of Cell Phone man and Ringtone.
  • rideronthestorm  - Life is a Choice!
    avatar
    Awesome departure Doug, I definitely want to hear more adventures of Cell Phone man and Ringtone. The time has come to face our destiny
  • Gethenian
    avatar
    With all due respect to my employer (Oancitizen), this is without question the greatest thing I've seen on this site in months. Rob's bit at the end just makes it absolutely golden, too.
  • Rumthomas  - huh?
    This was very funny but also a dose what the hell, enjoyed the hilarity of it all the same.
  • AndrewDeLong
    avatar
    I know, right?! I actually forgot that I was listening to an answering machine message.
  • Leithinan
    avatar
    That. Was. Awesome.
    It truly touched my heart :') And completely made my day.. I have to put that as my message.. It's anyway better than 10-year old me saying "Hi, this is _____'s answering machine.." and so on :D Yeah, I should change it..
    No, but seriously, it is the best answering machine ever!
