At 01:30, Jonathan talks about alternating between a Data Corrupter and Hoof Repear for the first pedal in his chain, depending on what songs are on the band's setlist. With regards to the latter, he says "it has to go first [in my pedal chain] because the tentacle octave effect thats in the middle.. if you put it at the end it, um, it just freaks out and gets really bright, which could be fun but when we play live I try to keep it more contained, so if I'm playing, you know * plays lead riff to The Beths' 'I'm Not Getting Excited' * to get that kind of Octavia... kind of octave up [to give leads] some extra juice"

At 02:24, Pierce discusses how he uses the EP Booster, stating that mostly uses it to "kick further down the line gain stages up a notch"

When talking about his complex gain staging setup at 02:45, Jonathan states that the "Pro Co Rat is always the solo[ing] pedal."

At around 02:40, Jonathan talks about using the Plexi Deluxe to go from his initial overdriven tone to "full on Marshall distortion"

Being the first of many overdrives in his pedalboards, Jonathan activates the left when he wants "next to nothing" dirtwise and presses the right footswitch when wants his tone to be "a little bit more" dirty (02:34)

Jonathan uses the Warped Vinyl HiFi as a substitute for the much larger EHX Polychorus he uses at home and in the studio, saying the former "is stepping in as the chorus and it's pretty good." (06:31)

At 06:23, Jonathan says "I've been spoiled by my Electro-Harmonix Polychorus back home. That pedal is like half the size of this pedal board and I can't bring it [on tour]."

During his episode of Bored to Death, Jonathan reveals that he uses the H9 "for all of [his] delay effects" and for tuning his guitar. On the latter, he describes the awkward foot maneuver - pressing both footswitches simultaneously - he has to do to alternate between the pedal's regular and tuner modes. Still, he puts up with this "because it's just a great tuner" (06:50)

The last pedal in his chain, Jonathan uses it for it's "extreme" quality at slow settings, professing that it gives his music a sense of movement or, in his words, a sense that "something is happening or something's about to happen" (08:29)

"Yeah, this is the first pedal I ever bought. It's a Danelectro French Toast and it's like a Foxx Tone Machine clone. And I do have a better clone made later with the octave effect on a footswitch" (17:58)

"Because my first pedal (Danelectro French Toast) was kind of an extreme pedal for a fuzz" *Jonathan grabs a modded DS-1 * "this would've been a good first pedal... Great first pedal if you want to make grunge"

That's how he fuels his pedals. You can clearly see it underneath the MXR Phase 90 throughout the whole video.
