What you're about to watch is behind the scenes footage from Chasing Nostalgia Episode 1. Stay tuned till the end of the video for a teaser trailer of Episode 2 airing this Friday, October 1st at 6pm Pacific, 9pm Eastern.

So I just got to the Airbnb. I walk in, I take a look around. The living room is really cool, the kitchen is nice. I run up the stairs because we have a lot also.

Whoa! Oh, jeez. And I broke the bed. The thing is, Ralph doesn't really know that this even happened yet, so I think I messed up. What?

I broke it. Dude, you did that? Yeah, it's pretty messed up. You're so stupid. Dude, you mangled this! Dude! I'm sorry. What the hell?

It's awesome. Oh, shit! Oh, it did. Ready? Yep. Let's go. We did it. Let's go! We should be good now.

Now Jeff, you know we had an amazing time at your place hanging out, but today we have a different story to tell.

There's a freaking bat in our Airbnb. I'm not even joking. I'm with you on that. When you're finished recording, you can hang up or press 1 for more options. Hi, my name is Mason Conrad. Um, there's a bat, like a really, a really large bat, and I don't really know what to do. It's terrifying and we need help. Uh, okay, thank you. It says close interior doors and give the bat a way to get outside If the bat doesn exit on their own it best to wait until they land to try to catch it

Okay? Never try to handle a bat with your bare hands. Wear thick work gloves, but not cotton, as most bats can easily bite through cotton! Dude, what the hell are we gonna do? Okay, I'm gonna open it a little bit, just see if there's, like, anything out there.

Still no. You don't see like the shadow of it or anything? No, dude, there's nothing out there. It's only upstairs.

Well, when you went upstairs, when you looked up the stairs, you saw it. Yeah, you saw it too. We ran back inside.

Do you want to go up? God damn it! Dude! You suck! It's you! You're going first. Screw you. You're being an asshole. Go. You go. No, no! I gotta open it. I gotta open it. Hold on. It's flying around. Hold on, wait. There it is. There it is. Oh my gosh. Where? Where? I don't see it. Oh god. He's huge!

Oh! Oh no! What the hell? Is he still- Is he coming this way? Wait, let's open it. Should we open this door? Yes, open the door. Open the door. Open it. Should we drop it? I don't know.

Oh. Ralph. Dude. What? I don't know. I don't think so. Let me in. Do it man, I have to come back inside. Where is it? I don't know, let me in. In a second. Dude. Where the hell is it Let me me in Is it outside or what No I don know Dude there it is there it is What? No, I see it. Still in here? Yeah, yeah, it's still in here. Dude, is it not flying around anymore? No. But where did it go? I don't know. You don't think it's in here? It is literally upstairs right now. How do you know that? Because it's not down here.

Dude, it was flying right toward you. I know. Then what happened to it? Did it retreat? It retreated. Unless they have a family. What if they have a family? It's not a family, dude.

Shit. I feel like we should cause a ruckus out there and make it fly out that way. I don't think they could respond to a ruckus. I need to pee really bad. Dude, go pee. I know, but I'm nervous. Just go. Go. The door's open. How do the baths not in here? Just go.

It's not in here. Mason, where's the smoke and bath status? Nothing. You just got in the bathroom. You haven't seen it? I haven't seen it yet.

Dude, it says the light through pot. That makes no sense. What's a bath doing in Ohio? Do not do not scare you I won't I won't I swear I won't I won't I won't I promise

Do I'm not the cameras up no you're good you're good. Yeah, you're good Dude, I don't know how this thing got in here Should I walk out there and see if I can get it on video? Dude, that's up to you I'm not going Sorry, I'm not going You going Dude you should be looking that way Are you sure it didn fly out Dude I saw a bat inside here after I walked back inside There is not a bat outside right now. It's inside.

You sure? Yes. Dude, I know what a bat looks like. I'm so nervous, dude. All right. Why do you think it went back up? Because he's not down here.

Why am I not sitting in these rafters somewhere? Because he flew back upstairs. You didn't see him fly. I didn't see him fly anywhere. I saw him over there last. And then he went back up that way.

Here, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop. I wonder if they were trapped through the light. Clearly not. No, what if we turn off the lights?

Well, we're not going to be able to see it. Oh, shit. Oh! Ah! Wow! You get it, film at least. In the, into the living room area, and it came down here, but then it kind of cornered us into the room. so we slammed it and now it's still out there.

Yeah, well this is definitely a first. Dude, Smash TV, nice. Is this the one you were talking about, David? The one you'd consider selling or? That is a Smash TV, but that's not the one. What do you mean?

My name is Retro Ralph and I love arcade games. When I was a kid, the arcade was a magical place. The sights, the sounds, memories etched into my mind forever. Now I'm a collector, and you could say I'm a little obsessed, but I know there are others like me. Are you one of them?
