And you'll be like, oh, Scrooge. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:18 I see it. Yeah, we got the random midweek podcast. That's right We're trying to get on a new schedule Our bosses Our corporate overlords Are trying to get us on a different schedule So we're doing it for them
Starting point is 00:01:36 But mostly for us So we'll continue to make money Yeah Hooray So, can I tell you This week I don't know I always make fun of you for things like
Starting point is 00:01:50 League of Legends or whatever other nonsense game You're playing Can I tell you I discovered that I really Enjoy auto chess and not like The auto chess you find As the thing that comes with Other things there is an on the Epic Games Store Free version of I think
Starting point is 00:02:08 They bought Dota auto chess Auto chess And it is It is like if someone took auto chess And then tried to make it a mobile app And crammed as many Things to buy as possible In auto chess
Starting point is 00:02:23 There's 15 currency, all that crap. And then they took all the characters and gave them silly line quotes. You know what I'm talking about? Like, whenever they spawn, they say a line, and it's always like, oh, oof, okay. Right? I'm pretty sure that auto chess spawned from a Dota auto chess. They bought Dota auto chess. What did I chess spawned from a Dota auto chess.
Starting point is 00:02:47 They bought Dota auto chess. What did I just say? They bought Dota auto chess? Yeah, they bought Dota auto chess and then released it as a standalone, but they couldn't use the Dota things. They're like off-brand Dota stuff. And so it is both jank and obviously them trying to nickel and dime you. But here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:03:10 Holy shit, is it fun. I don't know why I enjoy it as much as I do. It's mostly me versus people from around the world. Usually every match is me, some dude from Canada, a guy from the Middle East somewhere, a dude in India, and then four Chinese guys. Every game. The only other time I saw an American flag is I saw Day 9 playing, and I played against him, and I beat him. But here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:03:38 I, like, am formulating strategies. I have builds. I'm enjoying it. And it's one of those things where I'll turn it on. I'll play, like, I'll play a game in the morning, just to get the juices flowing before I do stuff. I don't know. I'm enjoying it. And it's one of those things where I feel like I should be
Starting point is 00:03:53 embarrassed for enjoying it, but I'm not. I'm simply not. When I get a synergy and I'm getting my draws of guys and I'm like, oh yeah. I feel like I'm skilled at a game, Crandor. I'm like, oh yeah. I feel like I'm skilled at a game, Crandor. I feel like I'm good.
Starting point is 00:04:10 I did it for a brand deal months ago and just left it on my desktop and then just was like, you know what? I had fun and then started playing again. I'm like, oh no. I actually am having fun. It's so weird. I usually hate these types of games and here i am
Starting point is 00:04:28 just like yeah yeah yeah yeah i'll play i don't know it's like half mindless but half not you don't really do anything you just watch units fight huh but you kind of pick you know you kind of like pick and choose yeah you kind of like i don't know maybe i mean you're talking the guy played this auto chess back when it released and the dota version of the auto chess then team fight tactics which is league of legends auto chess i've played all the auto chess i played warcraft 3 pokemon auto chess i've played it all i remember i remember that back in the day for warcraft 3 on battle net i remember doing those but i've never I never thought I would do a standalone version. It is...
Starting point is 00:05:07 Like, the main menu when you log in, there's like 18 pop-ups of things you can click to unlock stuff. It's that kind of game. And I'm just like, ooh, this usually isn't what I like. But here I am. Here I am proudly like, boy, I... Boy, do I actually enjoy this game.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Yeah, it's weird. I play Teamfight Tactics. I play the League of Legends one if I'm going to play one though. How is that? It's pretty fun. They've polished it over the last couple years. It's pretty good. It's got a little carousel so every couple rounds you get to pick a unit that spins around and you compete with the other people for it.
Starting point is 00:05:40 They swap units in and out every couple months. I like it. It's one of those games where you don't really have to pay attention that much. You do something else while you're playing it. Absolutely. Yeah, there's times where I'll be watching a video while it's going on, or I'll be multitasking on a certain...
Starting point is 00:05:57 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm totally on board with you. It's kind of like brain half on. You know what you're looking... When you first start, you're like, all right, well, I know what kind of build I'm on. You know what you're looking. When you first start you're like, alright, I know what kind of build I'm going. And then you just look over. Is it there? Nope. Alright, next round. And you just
Starting point is 00:06:11 let it go. Like, yep, no, I'm just going to save my money. Alright, build that interest. It's... I don't... I mean, I guess people would want to know what this game is. Imagine a game where you have a bunch of Dota and or League characters and there's a chess board in front of you and all you do is pick and place them and then they do all the work
Starting point is 00:06:30 yeah you can like upgrade them you do different builds and stuff yeah you can put items on them and certain units have different synergies like uh goblins right you can get a whole bunch of goblin groups and Or like machines. Or fighters. Or bird people. Or whatever the hell. And then they just have different bonuses and buffs. And the whole objective is to min-max your synergies and your items in order to beat the enemy.
Starting point is 00:06:58 That's pretty much it. And then you play everyone in sort of your group. And then you whittle down with losses. It's very simple. It's really a simple game but man maybe simple is where my brain is i feel like simplicity is like the best kind of life and right now we live in this life that's like overcrowded and overstimulated by so many things and that's why i want to just i just want to stop having as many of those things that's why i think i'm going to take a twitter break i'm going to take uh i just want to take a social media break you know i've seen people doing that and i'm like i think i want to do it
Starting point is 00:07:40 what i mean like how would you describe this break what are you gonna do i'm gonna make a twitter that's literally just for going live notifications or, like, videos. It'll be like, hey, I uploaded a video. Hey, I'm going live. But, like, I'm not looking at any notifications or, like, looking at the news on the side. It's literally just, like, video, bop, close. You know? So I want a Twitter for that.
Starting point is 00:08:02 And then I'm just just gonna delete the twitter app i'm gonna or i'll put my twitter app as like the going live thing but i'll probably do that on my computer and then i just have that bookmarked i'm not gonna i want to go on my main twitter i don't even want to go on like i don't want to go on like any social media things like facebook reddit what sparked this i mean like what about looking at it made you be like you know what i'm over it i just don't care anymore because a lot of times i'd wake up and i'd like open twitter and i would just see like they got to like what's happening or like people i follow being like oh my god this they just i don't know it's like an an over flooding over flooding of
Starting point is 00:08:44 things and it's just like whether i like wake up in the morning or like go to bed or like just It's like an over flooding, over flooding of things. And it's just like whether I like wake up in the morning or like go to bed or like just anytime I look at it, I've never been like, wow, I'm glad I looked at Twitter. You know what I mean? Or like, wow, I absolutely know what you mean. Yeah. Like I've never been like, well, I'm glad I opened my social media and I feel like I've been like that for like
Starting point is 00:09:06 over a year now and I was like you know what what if I just what if I just stop what if I just stop and so I think I will I get that I get exactly what you're talking about I feel the same
Starting point is 00:09:22 way except I have decided to just use it less um in hopes that i will you know when i do tweet it'll be something important rather than just like oh today i had a bad day and i just want everyone to know that you know I feel like that's what I've that's what I've thought too and then it ends up just being that well I I actively try to make good tweet choices like I don't want to just complain on Twitter because my big complaint about Twitter is every time I log in most of the tweets I see are people being very upset about stuff or people being kind of sad about something that happened in their life or whatever.
Starting point is 00:10:14 And everyone's allowed to do that, but it's not like a vibe I want to put out there. And then I go and I look at some of the bigger, more influential people in our industry. And the things they post are like an ad about their own products or a clip of a video that they're in. Or then they post, they don't post about their life or complain about their life obviously because i'm sure they have very little complaint about their billionaires but it's it's this thing where it's it's i understand the the vibe that you're trying to put out in your community where
Starting point is 00:10:56 it's it's i'm trying to uh demonstrate good behavior and i'm trying to demonstrate positivity and i know that you know sometimes it's all fake but i've really been trying to demonstrate positivity. And I know that, you know, sometimes it's all fake, but I've really been trying to look at that as sort of a, this, I can do this as well. And so, you know, literally like today, I posted, hey, I was in meetings, just letting you know what's going on, I'll stream tomorrow. And then I retweeted a thing Dodger had.
Starting point is 00:11:22 And then that was it. That's all I've done today. And then yesterday I retweeted a thing Dodger had. And then that was it. That's all I've done today. And then yesterday I retweeted Dolly Parton because I thought that was fun to retweet. And then two days ago I got tacos. And I was like, hey, I got tacos. And they were delicious. Or I tweeted like, oh, this press conference says we're going to have vaccines. Right?
Starting point is 00:11:43 Or like, oh, here's a silly gif of me, or a video of me playing Final Fantasy. And that was, and that was like, you know, like that kind of thing where I'm really trying to be, I don't want to tweet out like an obvious thing. You're trying to improve people's moods and make them happier. Right? Yeah. Because let me tell you, the amount of times I've been either laying in bed at night, late at night, or been sitting around my house.
Starting point is 00:12:07 I, just like everyone else, feel like shit. I am just like, man, this sucks. COVID sucks. I literally haven't touched another human being in a year. Like that kind of, you know, like that kind of like, this blows. I just want to hang out with my friends and like get a drink and like go to a place or like trap. Like there's a million things that I could complain about.
Starting point is 00:12:31 And I, every so often, almost I'm like, I'm just going to tweet my feelings. And then I stopped myself because I just know I'm going to regret tweeting out whatever I'm about to tweet out. Cause it's either too much information or gets caught up in some sort of nonsense or it's just twitter is a lot and i just want to feel good the little bit of time that i have to feel good during the day when i'm not like stressed about everything that's the type of thing i'm like i just i just don't care i don't care if i'm like but what if i tweet a positive thing i don't't care. Like, I've hit the point. I'm just like, you're also a more, I'd say, extroverted social person than I am.
Starting point is 00:13:11 True. Like, if I didn't have to talk to anybody, I'd be fine. I could literally just do it. I could be a nomad out in the woods. You know? Or just, like, me, my wife, my wife and a cat could be a new sitcom like i'd be uh that's fine with me i could live that way like some people like oh but like some people like oh i need a roommate you know i mean there's like all those people they make streamer houses they're like oh i just need a roommate wouldn't you be lonely no i love being alone It's great I think it also
Starting point is 00:13:46 Is like if you Were a hermit for example In this scenario for some reason you're the hermit Twitter would be like if someone came to your house Every day and told you about their life Like open the door Like you woke up in the morning Open the blinds and outside were a bunch of people like,
Starting point is 00:14:05 Hey, here's a thing that happened to me, and I know that you would not care then. Yeah, you wouldn't care then. You certainly don't care on Twitter. Yeah. No, that's why I've hit that point. I really just don't. Someone could be like, you're going to lose viewers on platform? I'm just like whatever whatever you know if like people don't uh end up watching something i made
Starting point is 00:14:31 because i'm not you know losing my mind from going on social media i'm fine with it uh but like i've just i've seen other people doing it too other people being like you know what i'm i think i'm done with social media and like maybe they take a break for like a week or two weeks but like i feel like once i take a break i don't know if i'll be back yeah you know it's just i feel that i gotta it's been i mean it's been like 12 years 12 years of me like going on like all these platforms and all this stuff and like everything i remember is just just negative things too. Maybe that's how my brain's also hardwired to think of the negative.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Would you ever do just Instagram, for example, where you just post photos? Are you taking all of it out? No more social media. I don't mind posting Instagram photos, but at the same time, I feel like I would take a break from that as well, and then I would just
Starting point is 00:15:31 uh... That would probably be one of the first things I would start doing again. You know what I mean? How else are we going to see your glistening pecs, dude? I don't know. I can talk about them on this show. You can use your imagination. I I mean I'll still be streaming you know I don't like the idea that your streams are now you just flexing on
Starting point is 00:15:53 I don't know that I enjoy that check out my muscle I'm not sure I approve. I mean, you know. I guess it's boiling down to, like, I just, when I don't look at social media, I feel better. And I don't need to post about myself everywhere on, like, any media. Like, all my, even thinking of other, like, YouTube comments is kind of a form of social media. And when I stopped reading YouTube comments, I was so much happier because it was just like, you know, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:16:30 I'm going to read a, read a couple of YouTube comments. You read one like, Hey, Crandor is pretty funny. Hey, Crandor, blah,
Starting point is 00:16:34 blah. And then it's just like, how's this guy breathe? How did this guy made one misplay? How's he even breathe? Or some guy being like Crandor more like shit door. This thing sucks. And I'm like, you know what? more like Shitthor, this thing sucks. And I'm like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:16:48 I could have just not read that and been happy. And I would have gotten the same amount of views. I would have gotten the same amount of interaction and all this stuff, but I wouldn't have had my day ruined by being like, oh, look, there's this guy going on Reddit. I remember TB. I remember TB used to be like, I'm done looking at Reddit. And then he'd go back to Reddit because he was addicted to it.
Starting point is 00:17:07 He was addicted to the negative interaction. He wanted to see what the things people were saying, even if they were bad, and he kept going back to it. And I'm like, TB, you gotta stop. Alright? You gotta stop. Yeah, it's that weird feedback loop
Starting point is 00:17:22 of you want to know what people think, but in order to do that, you have to put yourselves out there in the pit of vipers. Like, you have to walk off the edge in order to, you know, see what other people think. And I will sometimes go check out videos. know either the people who are negative you know no longer care or i've gotten such a thick skin that i'm like all right whatever every once in a while someone will come into the stream and just say something really nasty and i don't even like acknowledge it and i feel like that is something that i don't like a lot of streamers that's the first thing they see and i think i've just been beaten down so much by trolls
Starting point is 00:18:05 on the internet that i just i'm like yeah all right yep oh yeah you just uh you do that i'm quick to the bane i'm just like this is a kren dictatorship and you're not allowed in the kren i'm just like all right somebody will come in and be like, this stream sucks, Bane. Don't give a shit. I've hit that point. Damn. Some guy was just like, this stream's boring. I'm like, yeah, that's the point. And then I timed them out and never came back.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Listen, all right. Again, 12 years of this. 12 years. You really are kind of over it. I've just hit the point. People are like, there's going to be people that want to tell you what I think.
Starting point is 00:18:49 I don't care. I want to make a video, and if I like it, I like it. I put it up and see how it does. If I want to stream, I'm like, I'm going to stream this game. If anything, it would be more of a Twitch interaction thing. But even then, I'll be like, today I want to play Tetris. i'll be like you know what today i want to play tetris someone could be like i don't want to see you play tetris i don't give a shit
Starting point is 00:19:09 i want to play tetris that's why i feel like i've hit that point how you know how long time ago we were like oh you know how the uh your dad or whatever is like stealing the grape jelly and you're like you can't do that. And he's like, what? I've hit that point of online creator, where I'm just like, whatever. I've hit that. I feel like I am old in the internet age. I have that vibe too, but I'm still in the creative mindset where I want to make things. But I can't let, you know, there's certain people who are like, I watch you for this.
Starting point is 00:19:49 And if you stop making that, I will stop watching you. And it's like, too bad. Go watch, you know, Gamer 545 then. Well, that's where I'm at right now. For years, I was like, I don't want to lose these people. But now I'm like, I just want to do things I enjoy. I don't want to just do things because But now I'm like, I just want to do things I enjoy. And I don't want to just do things because I feel like I have to do them.
Starting point is 00:20:07 And so, yeah, that's where I am mentally, where I'm just like, I want to create shit that I love. And if people watch, great. If they don't, fine. But thankfully, you know, there are people who still support us and like what we do, and that's what I have to rely on instead of like, I have been watching
Starting point is 00:20:23 your videos for 15 years and I've never liked one of them, but I will continue watching in case one day you make something good. Yeah. Like that's not even like me making that up. That's a real thing someone said to me once and I was like, holy shit. What? Which, you know,
Starting point is 00:20:40 I feel like it also sounds like I'm being like, God, I just can't stay in people and their comments. Like I'm not saying that. I'm just it also sounds like I'm being like, God, I just can't stay in people and their comments. Like, I'm not saying that. I'm just saying probably the, like, the negative stuff and, like, the, not even the negative stuff. Just having so many people, like, watching what you do and looking at you just bothers me. Because I'm like, again, I'm like a person, like, I don't like interacting with people. You know what I mean? You know me. I do. I don't like interacting with people. You know what I mean? You know me.
Starting point is 00:21:06 I do. I don't like interacting with people. Like, I'm just, I just, every time I interact with, like, a new person, I'm like, God, are they going to, like, want something from me? Is this, like, something like this? Is this something you have to worry about? Do you worry that people are like, how can I use Crendor? Is that really a worry whenever somebody like interacts with me i'm like they want something really yes boy we are different people i know many people in our
Starting point is 00:21:42 industry who are like that But for me I never Ever think that Maybe it's because I realize I don't have much to offer Every time I meet someone new I never think like What does this person want from me I'm just like boy This idiot wants to hang around
Starting point is 00:21:59 Me okay dummy I don't I'm just got him You know Yeah I don't know like so in order it's almost like a self-defense mechanism in a way too where i'm like you know instead of even engaging that thought i'm like i'll just not i don't have to say anything you know like i've been i've been trying to figure out how to stop Discord DMs. I have Twitter DMs blocked. Any type of messaging thing I've blocked.
Starting point is 00:22:32 Just because, number one, I don't trust anyone. And number two, it's just, like I said, I don't like interacting with people. And it's weird. Okay, let me tell you a weird thing. I'm like an introverted extrovert. Or what do they call it? Ambivert? It's like an ambivert?
Starting point is 00:22:47 What? Oh, you're making me look this up now. Ambivert sounds like a drug. Ambivert. There's an omnivert? Oh, no. Here we go. I'm clicking a thing.
Starting point is 00:22:58 I'm an amphibian. That's an omnivert. So, there's an extrovert, an ambivert, and an introvert's an extrovert and ambivert and introvert. So I was extrovert. Yeah. Well, I thought I was more of an introvert, but I like hanging out with like people I'm close to. So I'm not like that introverted. So I'm like extroverted in that sense.
Starting point is 00:23:20 And I like going to places and being around people which is like the biggest thing with like okay here's what I was gonna mention that I think is like kind of weird but not weird like for example I like going if I'm gonna you know go to the gym people like you can work out at home I like being at the gym and being around people while I work out like it actually motivates me to like work out and seeing other people work out and I'm like oh you know there's the old guy with his checkboard like checking off all his things there's like the old lady that's like i'm getting healthy there's like the you know the the college kids they're like yo bro getting buff as fuck like you got all those people i don't know it's like i'm like gaining
Starting point is 00:23:58 uh knowledge about people by that like different types of like characterizations And I'm like getting motivated Because I'm around these other people trying to get healthier and work out But like I don't want to talk to any of them You know what I mean Sure alright so let me So an introvert Enjoys spending time alone An extrovert enjoys spending time with others
Starting point is 00:24:20 You're saying you enjoy time with others But you need time alone Yes But I also time with others. You're saying you enjoy time with others, but you need time alone. Yes. But I also probably scale more to the introverted side of that spectrum. Okay. Yeah. I imagine there's, I imagine there's a spectrum there. Yeah. You can be outgoing in the right context. Right. Yeah. You can be on teams after working independently.
Starting point is 00:24:47 I hate being on teams. I've always hated being on teams Alright so you're that's the more introvert Can process out loud Or internally Uh yeah I can do both Hmm Yeah I definitely fall in Looking at expert I'm like oh yeah
Starting point is 00:25:04 I think the only thing That would make me more leaning towards Ambervert is that first one. I prefer teamwork. I'm very outgoing. I like to talk things through with others. I like large groups of people. But while I enjoy others, boy, do I need time away from people. Yeah. Others boy do I need time away From people yeah Like I will if I'm with other people I will go 110% but When I leave and This always comes to shock to people I date Always because like when I'm out
Starting point is 00:25:33 In public or with them doing stuff I'm like hey then when I get home I'm like shut her down And I just don't want to do anything And just and they're like What happened to you? This is how I am when I'm not trying to be a public-facing person. I like to do nothing, and it's great.
Starting point is 00:25:55 The problem is I like to do that even around people. That is true. Even back when we had conventions and stuff, all the conventions, I remember when you're around people, I always called you the lighthouse social beacon. You're like a lighthouse that's just like and everyone's like it's jesse and you're just like here i am it's me jesse cox people be like how's it going i'm like i don't know i'm like that is true yeah like instantaneously my brain's already like i'm i'm just getting drained it's like all right and it's not even a thing of like man this person is annoying or anything like it's not their fault or anything it's just my it's just i feel the need to like
Starting point is 00:26:39 be extroverted but it's just not me and i'm just like man i could be at home like not doing anything right now i could be uh you know walking around ikea i could be uh you know just sit and reading a book i don't know but and that's the the other way like i mentioned like i like being around people at the gym it was like this even with like writing like i could write at home but i enjoyed going to like the library or like to a coffee shop or like where and i'd write there and i like being around people and hearing the like chattering and hearing other people like do stuff and work and i was like this is great i like being around people but then again like i don't want to you don't want them to talk to you yeah you you want to be around them but not like have them
Starting point is 00:27:26 Address you ever Is there like a term for that I mean Probably ambivert right Or whatever I guess Yeah I don't know there might be a term for that that's specifically about that You
Starting point is 00:27:41 You don't have social anxiety No I used to Yeah but you like being out in public specifically about that. You don't have social anxiety. No, I used to. Yeah, but you like being out in public and being part of the world, right? Yeah, but I would say like Krendor eight years ago had extreme social anxiety. But I still like going out and walking around and stuff. Yeah, maybe you've opened up based on your job.
Starting point is 00:28:03 You've gained the skills to handle public situations, but it still doesn't change who you are as a person where you're just like, yeah, I just don't want to talk to you. It isn't a character flaw that I don't want to talk to you. It's just that I don't want to talk. I got nothing to say to you because I don't care. I just want to sit here and read my book. Yeah. read my book yeah it's uh like even i've gotten like messages like i remember like sometimes like i'd get discord messages somebody like a year ago or someone would be like hey cred door and i would just be like like and my brain plays it out i'm like god they just you know this is i'll just not
Starting point is 00:28:42 say anything like like it's just my brain plays out like worst case scenarios i'm like this person might be crazy this person might like want something from me this person uh might be like hey you're looking for an editor i could work for you this person might be like oh man it'd be great if you put me in a video this person might be like hey what do you and like all these thoughts run through my head and i'm like what if i just say nothing and i just don't do anything? And I'm like, yeah, let's do that. I mean, that's a problem.
Starting point is 00:29:10 I have the same problem, but for different reasons. Like I get too many messages and I don't have enough time to respond. And rather than pick and choose who I can respond to, I just don't respond to anyone. I just get too many. I get too many messages. If I get like email sent to me or things where I can, you know, cause I have a passion about clearing my, my email, my, I gotta clear my email. If I like, uh, everything else, you don't want to know how many unread DMS I have. I feel bad. I genuinely feel bad, but there's, I get so many every day that I simply and then when I read them
Starting point is 00:29:45 It's always that I'll read the one that's like you fat piece of shit You're not funny, and I hate you meanwhile My dams are only open so that one day a beautiful woman will message me and be like I've always loved you Jesse Perhaps we can get together wink wink that shit. Just don't happen. It's always guys like you Perhaps we can get together. Wink, wink. That shit just don't happen. It's always the guy who's like, you cuck.
Starting point is 00:30:08 You pussy. I'm like, what the hell? And those are the ones I read so that I don't read any of the other ones. And then I'll say a thing. Like right now, I'll say that. And then I'll get like 30 messages that are DMs like, we love you. We think you're awesome. And I'm like, great.
Starting point is 00:30:23 Well, I can't respond to all of you because that would take all damn day. And I got 18 other things to do. And then I feel bad because these people took the time to message me and be like, you're awesome and i'm like great well i can't respond to all of you because that would take all damn day and i got 18 other things to do so like and then i feel bad because these people took the time to message me and be like you're awesome and i'm and meanwhile i'm like the one thing i did read was like you little bitch and videos suck and i'm like oh i don't want the people to feel bad like i'm just like this is fucking it or something but like you know it's just it's who i am you know I can't change who I am. That's me. I'm just... I don't like talking to people. I don't like meeting new people. There's some guy that came in a stream
Starting point is 00:30:52 and he was like, Crandor, you looking for friends? I'm like, I have too many friends. In fact, I'm trying to get rid of friends. You know? You know? I'm dumping friends Dodger she's gone what
Starting point is 00:31:09 I'm just kidding she was the first one that came to mind so I just brought her up of all the friends in fact I just talked to Dodger the other day and we had like a good like 30 minute conversation about stuff and I was like man dude remember when we were like woohoo we're like 22 years old and now we're like a good like 30 minute conversation about stuff and I was like man dude remember when we were like woohoo we're like 22
Starting point is 00:31:27 years old and now we're like dude we're like married you got like kids shit's crazy yeah that must be wild for you guys that must be so crazy to be so old and married I feel like this has been like a therapy episode. You know what?
Starting point is 00:31:47 Sometimes you got to get it out. I'm happy that you're... Here's the thing. You had a story you were going to say. You were going to say something. Oh my God, that's right. You totally were just like, I am so mad at the internet. I'm not even mad at the internet.
Starting point is 00:32:02 I'm just tired of the internet. You know? You can get burnt out. I think that we as creators work awfully hard chasing that dream of being this millionaire, million subscriber, million this. We see a lot of numbers and they're big and we love it and we spend all this time chasing it but that is such a quick way to burn yourself out yeah because that don't come easy to a lot of people yeah i think uh especially over time like i remember early on i'm like dude i gotta hit like this many subscribers i gotta hit like a million subscribers i want to hit this many
Starting point is 00:32:40 views i want to hit this my thing and now like you like over time i've hit a point where i'm like i just kind of want to do what i want and then just you know whatever i feel that i feel it yeah so it's uh that's where that's where i'm at right now and that's why i want to stop looking at social media well you have demonstrated your reasons And thank you for doing so Like, you know, instead of opening Twitter I can go for a walk You know, it's getting warmer outside Who are you? Instead of Twitter
Starting point is 00:33:15 I go for a walk That is like a t-shirt a mom would wear Dude, I can start making t-shirts And all the moms will buy them There you go By the way would wear. Dude, I can start making t-shirts and all the moms will buy them. There you go. By the way, I was going to bring up this whole show
Starting point is 00:33:33 how I got COVID tested. Wait, so okay, so you got COVID tested. Yeah, it was negative. So I didn't have COVID. Oh, that was from last... I was like, wait, so where is this going?
Starting point is 00:33:51 But that was just from last week. Yeah. When you were like, I'm sick. And we all knew you didn't have COVID, but for some reason you thought you had COVID. Well, here's the route I went down. So like, first, you know, the initial day I was just like sneezing really snotty
Starting point is 00:34:06 and I was like the next day I just got really fatigued and I was kind of like and then you know still like I'd like post nasal drip I wasn't really congested and then the next day I was like really fatigued again I had some muscle aches I'm like all right you know maybe it's just a cold but then i went on then i went on like the reddit and i started reading people's uh symptoms and they'd be like dude day one i was congested day two i had muscle aches day three that's when it hit couldn't breathe i'm dying i'm like day three what are we on day two and a half it's like day two and a half day three what if it's just you know this Day two and a half? That's like day two and a half. Day three. What if it's just, you know, this is just crazy. That's someone else just like day three, day four. That's when the smell loss happened.
Starting point is 00:34:49 I'm like, smell loss? That's, what are we at? Three to 36 hours? That's like the day. Oh, no. Crandor. No. So I was like full-blown anxiety.
Starting point is 00:35:00 I was like, any second, I'm going to lose my sense of smell. Any second, I'm going to not be able to breathe. So I was like, you know what?'m going to lose my sense of smell. Any second, I'm going to not be able to breathe. So I was like, you know what? I'm just going to get the test. And they're like, all right, do you want the rapid one or do you want the one that takes two to three days but it's more accurate? And I was like, I'll just take the accurate one because I'd rather know. So I did the accurate one, and it was negative.
Starting point is 00:35:22 But I went to the testing thing. So I was like, you know, they always say, like, they're going to shove the stick up your nose, right? And I was like, all right, well, let's see how this goes. And so you literally, I got to the place and they're like, all right, come in the front door and then, you know, take your mask down and then we'll swab you and then you're good i'm like okay so i get there i'm like i'm here they're like come in the front door i do there's just a lady decked out in all her uh you know protective garb i guess is the term and then yep that's the uh they pull out the little like nose thing and it was just like a little and a little. I mean, like describe that to me, because my biggest fear about that is they stick it right up in your brain.
Starting point is 00:36:12 What is what is that? I feel like maybe the rapid tests, they go deeper or like maybe the tests have improved over time, but it literally felt like nothing. Maybe like a little tickle. It was like a little tickle it was like a little tickle and she just you know went back in there and did both nostrils and she's like you're good and i was like oh okay like it was it was honestly not that bad so i mean i'd get i'd get tested again like uh easily now that i know how easy it was i was like man i thought i was gonna like be sore i thought she's gonna like, get back in there.
Starting point is 00:36:45 I was like, ah! No, it wasn't bad at all. And then you found out you did not have COVID. Well, and then... Because you never did. Because you never did. Yeah, and then like, I think like Wednesday. What's today? Thursday?
Starting point is 00:37:02 Mm-hmm. Yeah, no, Tuesday. I felt like 50% better. My fatigue was a little better. I'm like, all right, that's good. I'm improving. And then the next day, I was like, dude, my fatigue's like way better on Wednesday. And then still, I was like, there's some people like I felt better.
Starting point is 00:37:16 And then boom, it hit me. The fevers, the cough. And I'm like, but then it was like you're negative. And I'm like, oh, okay. And I feel even better today. So I think it was just a random rhinovirus cold, which, you know, in our current times, you forget that other sicknesses are still out there just being like, hey, here I am. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Also, vitamin D. It was like Dr. Roger Sehult and Dr. Rhonda Patrick, who are like two biochemists, talk about vitamin D and like heat hydrotherapy and vaccine and stuff. Heat? Heat hydrotherapy? What the hell is that? So like it's pretty much inducing a fever essentially. Where like the, it was actually really interesting i feel
Starting point is 00:38:07 like i would try to describe it but i would do a terrible job there's like a video it's literally called dr roger sehult from medcram on covid vaccines vitamin d heat hydrotherapy it's pretty much uh they're talking about the vitamin d research because it's been like a bunch of research on vitamin d and they're showing that the lower your vitamin d levels the higher the complications were from covid essentially interesting and it was like they go like really in depth with it and like uh they talk about how like the vitamin d isn't even really a vitamin it's more of a hormone and like how so many people are low in vitamin d because people are like, oh, well, like people live in like warm climates will get it. But most of those people are inside all day anyway.
Starting point is 00:38:49 And how if you're by a window, you actually don't get vitamin D. It can't go through windows. So you sit in by a window, you're out of luck. Clothing can block vitamin D. It has to be like, you know, middle of the day. And so like the vast majority of people are like low in vitamin d and they were doing studies of like people that like went to the er and like apparently he works in an icu as well and so they were testing people in the icu and
Starting point is 00:39:16 like a majority of the icu patients had like low vitamin d and they did another test where like they gave a bunch of students vitamin d and they measured their sleep and pretty much if you got under six or seven hours of sleep a night and you were low in vitamin d uh your chances of getting like sick with even not just covid but like a cold like skyrockets it's like actually insane because they did a test where they they got college students and they like gave them colds like they literally were like we're gonna give you a cold and they're like all right and they like measured all this stuff and it was like uh it was like actually insane how much not getting sleep and not having no vitamin d impacted them so like he's like you might be like wow, people like who would want to get a cold?
Starting point is 00:40:08 And he's like, well, college kids want money. So I would recommend listening to it. It's like, I don't know, an hour and a half, two hours long. But it's pretty interesting. It is fascinating. I definitely need to see that. I'm not I I'm always like, what is the science there? But I definitely need to see that. I'm not, I, I, I'm always like, what is the science there? But I definitely want to watch it.
Starting point is 00:40:27 They're also not like, you know, they're not like anti-mask, like they tell you to wear a mask and stuff. So they're not like, you know, they're actual scientists and doctors. All right. Well, I mean, you know, speaking of science and doctors, that's, that's the, that's the transition. That's how we're doing this. doctors that's that's the that's the transition that's how we're doing this you know science and doctors say getting a good night's sleep is also very important and one of the best ways yeah i'm doing it and most powerful ways to improve your overall health and happiness is to get a good night's sleep with calm calm is here to help you get that good night's sleep because it's an app designed to ease your stress and knock you out at night.

It didn't. I already know that. Also, oh, God, this traffic report isn't very good. This is what you get for not looking at social media.
Starting point is 00:45:54 You don't know what's going on in the streets, man. That's true. I don't know what's going on in the streets. I'll figure it out later. Back to you. All right, let's go to weather time. Oh, boy. It's weather time.
Starting point is 00:46:09 You know what? Let's bust out WAPI again. Might as well. I haven't busted out WAPI in a while. WAPI, kick it up. WAPI activated. 4, 4, 6, 5, 3. Midvale, Ohio.

Starting point is 00:47:57 I understand. I haven't been used in a while either. This is all good. I saw that joke coming, and that's the weather. Hey. all right. Let's go to sports. Sports. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:48:12 We got some sports headlines. Looks like the NBA is going to be going to All-Star weekend. Giannis and LeBron have selected their all-star teams. So that's happening. When's that happening? It's happening. It's the 7th. It looks like the 7th is when the all-star game is going to be happening.
Starting point is 00:48:39 And I think the 6th, the Saturday, is going to be the slam dunk contest, the three-point contest, all that stuff. I usually like watching that more than the actual All-Star game. Although the last couple slam dunk contests sucked ass. What a critique. Those last slam dunk contests sucked ass. What was so sucky about them? There weren't any good dunks.
Starting point is 00:49:06 And then they, like, would be like, oh, he's going to dunk over this new Honda Civic. And it's like, all right. Yeah, never mind. It's just a dunk for, like, you know, showing off a car or something. It's like, what happened to the good dunk contest? Like, the Vince Carter dunk contest. Michael Jordan. Or, like, even the Zach Levine versus, what was that guy
Starting point is 00:49:26 in the Magic? Aaron Gordon. You know? What about all those? Come on. Come on. Maybe they'll change it up. Maybe it'll be pretty good because they can't do like crazy stuff this
Starting point is 00:49:42 year. Maybe it'll go back to the good old fashioned dunks. Yeah, there's who are they going to impress? There's no one in the stands except for cutouts. Yeah. And then it looks like Ben Roethlisberger coming back to the Steelers for another year. Oh, boy. Can we not Steelers?
Starting point is 00:50:01 Look. I feel like his arm is just hanging off by a thread. Literally, the first person they should replace in a draft is him. not Steelers. Look. I feel like his arm is just hanging off by a thread. They're literally the first person they should replace in a draft is him. I get he's been there for a while, but come on. We're done. We're done. We can't keep relying on Ben. It's just we
Starting point is 00:50:16 gotta move on, guys. He's been there since I think I was in high school. It's been a long-ass time. Yes! And then J.J. Watt went to the Arizona Cardinals. Big signing there. And those are the main signings of that. And then in the NHL, looks like... Actually, when's the NHL All-Star game?
Starting point is 00:50:42 That's going to be happening. Not for a while, though, right? I guess they did start a little later, actually. Yeah. I was like, hold on now. Wait a minute. Yeah, maybe not. Yeah, it looks like...
Starting point is 00:50:56 Yeah, they got a while. NHL, you got Lightning at the top, Capitals, Golden Knights, and the Maple Leafs. Those are your top teams over there. Vegas, baby. Vegas. Vegas. And baseball. Spring training started up.
Starting point is 00:51:13 They got about 100 games to go. Hey, the Cubs beat the Dodgers. That's good. They got about 100 games to go. That's neat. So that's sports. All right, Crandor, what is our bingo story of the day Well time out we gotta do a crazy fact
Starting point is 00:51:28 Oh my god yeah okay Um Pringles aren't actually Potato chips Can I tell you this is the one fact I knew Oh This is the one fact I was very aware of Yeah they are not called
Starting point is 00:51:43 If you look at the packaging they're not called potato chips. The next time you see a can of Pringles, take a closer look. You won't see the word chip anywhere in the packaging. That's because they aren't made of thinly sliced potatoes, but instead dehydrated potato flakes pressed into their signature parabolic shape. That's what makes them less greasy. But when other potato chip manufacturers complained the food and drug administration ruled that pringles couldn't
Starting point is 00:52:10 be marketed as chips company eventually settled on potato crisp huh yep i decided for the news story i was gonna check cosmo we're back here again huh we're back here again, huh? We're back here. Okay. I just want to read a couple titles for you. I don't want to hear them, but okay. Eleven sex positions that pair really well with weed.
Starting point is 00:52:39 Like, here's my problem, okay? Is it like, you're just like, man, this position sucks. And then you get high and you're like, never mind. This is great. Like, what happens? Let me tell you right now.
Starting point is 00:52:55 There are not 11 positions that pair well with weed. That's not true. That's not true. I just know that's not true. That is a stretch. They were like, we got to have a number that's not true. That's not true. I just know that's not true. That is a stretch. They were like, we gotta have a number that's not 10. 11? 11! Yeah! 11 sexy weed.
Starting point is 00:53:13 That's definitely not true. It's definitely not true. Those positions I think could all be done without weed, honestly. I don't even need to know what they are to know that most people high out of their minds are not going to be like Yo you want to do that Thing where like one legs up
Starting point is 00:53:29 But like the other legs down And then like we're kind of scissoring but Also like my hand is holding Like that's not happening That's not happening no Yeah that's not happening Um So that's not happening um so that's an article uh and there's what are all those sweats brands
Starting point is 00:53:51 gonna do when we go back to the office here's the thing i've been pushing sweat pants for years and now it's actually taking off what do they think is going to happen? Sweatpants are just going to go away when people go back to work? I've been wearing sweatpants every day for years. Yeah, just because you're wearing more sweatpants doesn't mean that you're not going to keep those sweatpants or anything.
Starting point is 00:54:17 Now you have more options for when you want to wear sweatpants. Yeah, exactly. Then there was 30 things to do as a couple instead of binge watching netflix i think there are more than 30 i would say 30 is too low there's a limitless amount of things you can do as a couple yeah now besides watch netflix i'm gonna give you a little secret here i think this might be recycled content Why do you think that?

No, this is a different article than the one we read Yeah, this is, this is a different, I'm pretty sure this is a different article than the one we read. This is, yeah, this is 100% recycled. Yeah. Yeah, this is a different person. Here, because there's some others thrown in here, hold on. Uh, take an apology language test.
Starting point is 00:55:19 I don't even know what that is. The shit? Don't you just say, sorry? Sorry? I feel like this is one of those things where, like, everyone accepts apologies in a different way. Like, somebody wants a gift. Somebody wants words. Somebody wants a nice thing.
Starting point is 00:55:35 Let's do this right now. There are five languages of apology. In this quiz, you will determine which one you speak. All right. The person you're with spills water on your shirt which of these apologies is preferred the person profusely apologizes and insists they'll be more careful the person says nothing but rushes to grab a towel and help dry it off the person simply says i'm sorry the person says that's my fault i'm sorry sorry or the person says i'm sorry will you forgive me what's the best one for you uh
Starting point is 00:56:06 probably or wait it was probably one of the ones where it's like they're like oh god sorry or if they're like getting a towel so one person rushed off to grab a towel said nothing but the other ones were i'm sorry or that's my fault, I'm sorry, or I'm sorry, will you forgive me? Probably them being like, oh, that's my fault, I'm sorry. Okay. The person you were with shows up 15 minutes late to dinner. They blame it on bad traffic and being unable to find parking. Oh, God, that's me.
Starting point is 00:56:40 Which one of these thoughts would be most likely to silently think In your head I made it on time you should have been able to do so too Do you think I Should be okay with you showing up late Saying sorry is easier than making Excuses So how are you going to make it up to me
Starting point is 00:56:59 Or you seem okay with wasting my time Damn All those are kind of like aggro I feel like I get it Yeah I've been late before like shit I get it You seem okay with wasting my time. Damn, all those are kind of like aggro. Yeah, I feel like I get it. Yeah, I've been late before. Like, shit, I get it. Or I'd just be like, oh, that's all good.
Starting point is 00:57:13 I'll just look at my phone or like, you know, I ordered a drink. Yeah, 15 minutes late to dinner is not as bad as some late to dinners I've been a part of. Where they never show up. Yeah, I don't like any of those. So, alright, really quickly. I'm going to go on. Yeah, maybe the, so how are you going to make it up to me? Is that like the vibe? That seems pretty aggro.
Starting point is 00:57:40 I mean, yeah, you seem okay with wasting my time is pretty aggro. Saying sorry is easier than making excuses is pretty aggro. Do you think I should be okay with you showing me? I don't like any. You're right. I don't like any of these. Yeah, these all suck. They all suck.
Starting point is 00:57:55 All right, let's move to the next question. Rate this apology. My bad. Didn't mean to be a backseat driver. Can you forgive me? One is the worst. Five is the best. How would you rate that apology?
Starting point is 00:58:07 That's a pretty good apology. Right? It's very specific. All right, I'll say the best. Yeah. Okay. The person you're with eats your unlabeled leftovers without asking. Choose the best apology.
Starting point is 00:58:23 I'm so sorry for eating your food. I'm sorry I'll order you a replacement. I'm sorry for eating your food. I'm sorry I'll order you a replacement. I'm sorry for eating your leftovers. It's completely on me. I'm sorry for eating your food. Will you accept my apology? I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:58:36 From now on, I'll check before I eat leftovers. Probably either I'll check or I'll order you a new one. All right. Yeah. The person you're with watched an episode ahead on a new one. Alright. Yeah. The person you're with watched an episode ahead on a show you started together. Choose the best... There's no apology for this.
Starting point is 00:58:51 That's no apology. But whatever. They say to you, I'm sorry. Are you upset with me? I'm sorry. Let's re-watch together. I'm sorry. That was inconsiderate and I won't do it again. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. Or I'm sorry I watched ahead. I was only thinking of myself sorry that was inconsiderate and i won't do it again i'm sorry i didn't mean to hurt your feelings or i'm sorry i watched ahead i was only thinking of myself and that was rude
Starting point is 00:59:09 i feel like they're like kind of the same they all are roughly the same i'm gonna let you know if someone said to me i'm sorry i watched ahead i was only thinking of myself and that was rude of me i would be like you're still only thinking of yourself that apology is like you being like all right how do i cover my bases as quickly as possible oh i'd be like i don't trust your ass you do it again yeah i would say i'm sorry let's re-watch it together is the best one right like i yeah like sit your ass down re-watch it with me yeah which of these apologies do you find most unacceptable?
Starting point is 00:59:45 I'm sorry, okay? Whoops, my bad I'm sorry you feel that way I'm sorry, let's move on Or, sorry if I made you feel that way Oh, I know which I feel and think is bad What do you think? They all suck, but which is the worst? Wait, what were they real quick?
Starting point is 01:00:02 I'm sorry, okay? Whoops, my bad I'm sorry you feel that way I'm sorry, okay. Whoops, my bad. I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm sorry, let's move on. Or, sorry I made you feel that way. Probably one of the sorry I made you feel. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:16 Yeah, like the second one. I'm sorry you feel that way. That one? Yeah, that one. That's like a dick. Yeah, that's like, sorry I made you feel, babe. You're dumb. All right, so your're dumb. All right. So your apology language is restitution.
Starting point is 01:00:30 Saying I'm sorry in itself isn't enough. The wrongdoing can be undone. It's ideal. For example, if someone borrowed your property without asking, then damaged it, saying sorry isn't enough. If they say sorry, replace your property and promise not to do it again, that's enough for you. If it's not as simple as that, an apology accompanied by verbal reassurance
Starting point is 01:00:50 that person cares is the best. Now, imagine you and I are dating. Alright. And we did this quiz together. This is the least sexy fun thing I've ever done. I would hate that. Yeah, that is fun thing I've ever done. I would hate
Starting point is 01:01:05 that. Yeah, that is like the love language test. You're going out with somebody and you're like, hey, let's see how we can get to know each other better. This is like, you messed up. Now,
Starting point is 01:01:21 let's see what kind of mess up language. I don't know. How do I get out of a mess up that I did? Like if I cheated on you, how do I get out of that as easy as possible? We're going to take this quiz to find out. Sorry, I didn't mean to cheat. I mean, I just have needs.
Starting point is 01:01:37 I love the idea that you could like, alright, and then how could I weasel my way out of this? That's what that test is like. So I slept with your sister. How do I weasel my way out of this? That's what that test is. Like, so I slept with your sister. How do I weasel my way out of this? You wouldn't do the thing I wanted you to do. So I went and did it with someone else. What's so bad about that?
Starting point is 01:01:58 I thought you cared about me. This is your fault, if anything. According to our love language test, you weren't expressing my needs verbally. This is all Cosmo's fault. Cosmo is the problem. All right. There's too many. Okay.

Starting point is 01:05:42 Just bang. Museums are where people went to learn about artifacts before Pawn Stars was available online who's watched Pawn Stars in the last 5 years I don't know but frankly that's part of your problem
Starting point is 01:05:58 I think that's why relationships if you're watching Pawn Stars and you are dating anyone and that's what you decide to watch together the only people watching Pawn Stars or should be watching Pawn Stars and you are dating anyone and that's what you decide to watch together, the only people watching Pawn Stars or should be watching Pawn Stars are like me.
