I wouldn't know personally, but I assume if you have an iPhone you have an app called "voice memos" and on Android you have one probably called about the same. Hit record, position the mic facing upwards sticking out the top of your bag or something. Once done, should be able to upload to dropbox, or whatsapp to somebody, or save to google drive or icloud. I mean, I guess that's how you'd do it if anyone was going to. It's so wrong though, omg.

I mean for someone who has definitely, totally not been doing it (lmao) human is exactly right. Dan and Phil are using pretty good mics and the iphone picks up a lot, I haven't had a single recording that wasn't perfectly clear and I'm assuming most people have just set their phones down somewhere. Maybe inside a pocket wouldn't be the best option but as long as the mic isn't being muffled by something directly against it then it shouldn't require anything extra besides just making sure it's on when the show starts.

D: I feel like after that a ray of hope has penetrated the dank cave of my soul, Phil- a single shaft of light-
P: Shaft.
D: Okay, right, I literally wasn't even. WHATEVER.

Context: Dan has to explain why bad fanfiction can actually be good.

D: You know when you've got like a bad habit and you want to give something up and you just need something to convince you that it's terrible, well there is a subject for every kind of fanfiction - so you want to be a vegan but you just can't give up that dairy, then you go to wattpad and you say 'what's this milk fic about...'
P: That was too much for everyone.
D: Did I cross a line?
P: You crossed all the lines.
D: Okay. I'm sorry.
P: The lines are gone.
D: That should have just been what we did for the not milk challenge...
P: Oh my god.
D: I meant reading it, okay.

D: Lets just have a casual conversation.
P: Lets do it. I probably shouldn't have said that while I was adjusting my pants. So.
D: You shouldn't have done anything while anything.

So basically you can see in Phil’s insta explore pages vid that Dan has a picture recommended to him from @danielhowellcloset (which is a lovely page!) which leads me to believe he had looked at the account before or at least an account or picture similar. (the post under the cut if anyones interested!)

This is interesting to me because I am pondering a couple of things.
Lots of comments under every picture are just complaining about the crazy price of the clothes. (for a good reason, he’s got a very expensive taste, to say the least) I wonder if he reads stuff like that about himself.
I also wonder how much they lurk. This gave a little evidence that at least Dan lurks a little, but i wonder how much they actually see. Personally I know if I had a following I would constantly be lurking, but perhaps maybe since its been so long they don’t even care anymore.
Is there any other evidence suggesting they lurk? It’s fasinating to me because they are so quiet about it compared to most other influencers. Especially Phil. We really don’t know anything about him
