Now-terminated YouTuber 24thPowerProductions created a fan-made voice-over dub of the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "The Secret Box" in 2010 as a bonus dub. This was #16 in his dub series, with "Greasy Buffons" being #17 and the final one before his channel termination, but since "The Secret Box" got lost, "Greasy Buffoons" is listed as #16.

Premise

24thPowerProductions was a YouTuber who made NSFW gag dubs of SpongeBob using a pitch changer tool for the voices. He made 17 dubs in the lifetime of his channel, and "The Secret Box" is two of two missing dubs from him (the first and other being "Silverstein Concert" (#5), which was a dub of the episode "Opposite Day").

Availability

24thPowerProductions' YouTube channel was terminated in late 2010 for copyright violations of using Viacom's properties in his videos, even though the dubs were Fair Use as they were merely parodies not intended to be the original episodes. In 2013, a YouTube user named seventy76five reuploaded every dub from the channel (albeit made the uploads unlisted) except #5 (Silverstein Concert) and #16 (The Secret Box), due to the person who made the MediaFire files to the dubs publicly accessible (SAMUSX345) being unable to provide dubs #5 and the original #16 for reasons unknown.[1]

Dub #5 (Silverstein Concert) was originally thought to be "The Secret Box" since Silverstein is referenced in the opening text screens for dubs #3 and #4 (Graveyard Shift and Pizza Delivery) and is not referenced in any of the dubs afterward, but after a YouTuber named 2000s Media Archive/ToonEditor01 talked with 24thPowerProductions on Facebook, the original uploader confirmed that Silverstein and Secret Box were two different dubs and that Silverstein Concert was a dub of Opposite Day while The Secret Box was originally #16 with Greasy Buffoons being #17, but since The Secret Box got lost, Greasy Buffoons was listed as #16 instead when the dubs got reuploaded in 2013.

It was confirmed by YouTuber SuperIdiotMan00 (who was behind the seventy76five channel) that 24thPowerProductions did indeed dub the episode "The Secret Box". He remembers watching it back when 24thPower's original channel was still up, and recalls the plot involving a contest winner being trapped inside the box.[2] One commenter on the Graveyard Shift dub reupload recalls the following quote from the video:

"Some bands are lame, boring and dull but Silverstein gives me a boner."

24thPowerProductions briefly returned in 2013 and revealed his name to be Willy Burt on a comment on the Krusty Krab Training Video dub reupload and announced he retired dubbing to become a stand-up comedian (although this occupation too seems to have been quit). Fans have asked him if he still has dubs #5 or #16 saved, but Burt has confirmed that he no longer has access to his old videos or the email associated with the Google account, leaving it up to someone who'd downloaded the dub beforehand or retrieval of the video URL to put into the Wayback Machine.
