Stop Flying Over My House - WAN Show July 29, 2023
The WAN Show
Linus' First Underwear Shoot
Linus: It was such a weird experience for me going through my first merch shoot because I like standing there in the shirt. Most of our merch photos are taken by Hoffman and Maria if I recall correctly. They really do a great job of making the experience more comfortable. You see him shift into presenter mode, but you tell me don't talk. And I just don't know what to do with it.
