i had a Wonderful idea because of this ask. My BOYS

The audience overlap exists Right

yknow, to introduce me (No Bob, Raul, or Murray yet, sorry superfans)

NATE SHAPIRO

𑣲⋆ He, Helen, and Mavis are college friends, and started You Don't Know Jack together

𑣲⋆ Despite not being the best at it, they're often put in mediator roles purely because their voice calms people down

𑣲⋆ It's a running gag that every employee has dated Nate at one point or another, and if they haven't, that it's only a matter of time

𑣲⋆ They can play a good selection of instruments, though none of them above average

𑣲⋆ He wishes Buzz could see how talented she is at anything but being Nate himself

BUZZ LIPPMAN

✶⋆.° She's intersex (Klinefelter Syndrome)

✶⋆.° After The Ride, he does engineer work for the company with Ando and Tom

✶⋆.° She wears a badge to avoid being kicked out of the studio, even though it only happened once

✶⋆.° Elevator Lady is fond of him, though that fondness may, in part, be pity

✶⋆.° ooh ee ooh she looks just like buddy holly

COOKIE MASTERSON

𔓐 He was hired through a blind date with Nate, though neither care to tell the story

𔓐 Those violent tendencies of his come from his mother's side of the family

𔓐 Mavis had him do vocal warm-ups with Ray after his promotion to help with his Brooklyn accent peaking the studio mics

𔓐 Schmitty and Cookie became friends during their years as crew, and now continuously drift apart and back together

𔓐 He has one of those faces that you're sure you recognize from somewhere

GUY TOWERS

ᯓ★ He does different style eyeblack for every show (Nate is an especially big fan of the gimmick)

ᯓ★ If you can name a sport, he's at least given it the ol' college try. Coincidentally, most of these sports tend to be tried during college

ᯓ★ He's picky about his superstitions, a notable one being that he won't go out without a hat, which he insists is a luck thing

ᯓ★ Buzz looks up to him, and he can tell, so he tries to go easier on the kid than other people tend to

ᯓ★ Despite his hatred of arguing, he and Schmitty get along rather well

SCHMITTY

𖦹๋࣭⭑ He's one of three triplets, Sandy (L!F!F!) being his older sister

𖦹๋࣭⭑ Unfortunately for him, ghosts seem to like him (he does NOT reciprocate)

𖦹๋࣭⭑ Mavis was the one who brought him onto the team, and out of all of the crew at the studio, Schmitty gets along with her best, though they often butt heads

𖦹๋࣭⭑ If he were asked to play fuck, marry, kill on the other hosts, he'd fuck Cookie, marry Guy, and kill Nate, only because he doesn't think he can physically kill the other two

I posted once but chickened out and deleted it, but having seen all of these YDKJ and Jackbox fans on here, I finally figured I’d share the rest of my designs. I can’t stop drawing these stupid men, so I hope you guys like my interps because you’ll be seeing a lot of them

(I might tweak buzz’s outfit a bit tbh I’m not a fan)

I redrew a piece of Schmitty fanart I made back in May of 2024. Anyway sorry my art motivation/focus has been in the garbage lately and HOPEFULLY ArtFight will fix me. Whatever just take the Schmitty fanart oughhhhhh

(Comparison below the cut)
