What's up? Whoa! Hello everybody, welcome to another episode of Cax and Grendel in the morning!
What's up?
Whoa.
You okay?
I was yawning, but I had to talk, so I just...
I was too excited, so I yawned.
You sounded like a ghost escaping from a crypt.
That was also saying, what's up?
Like, what's up?
I was also escaping from my crib.
Yeah, you were like a very cool ghost.
Listen, my adrenaline shot.
I just watched the Packer game.
They missed like four, three game-winning field goals,
and the Bengals missed two game-winning field goals,
and it came down to the final one, and he made it.
By the end of that, I think I aged like 10 years and five minutes.
I saw your tweets and assumed you were talking about sports but also what you tweeted could have been about anything
like what even is this no if you see me tweeting like that it's sports i would never tweet like
that about anything else what even is this what even is this unless it's like some big thing going
on like an event and then people are watching but otherwise it's sports all right it's uh use your use your crypt crypt to crypt to you know
no i don't know what the hell you're talking like uh cracking the crypt code or whatever you know
that crypto but like the crypt, like puzzle, like crypt puzzle.
Crypt puzzle?
You know.
No, I don't!
What's it called? Crypt puzzle!
You can just Google it. What are you
trying to say? Crypt.
Like, what's a... Okay, crypts.
Yeah. A crypt is a stone
chamber beneath the floor.
That is true.
It also is...
It's also, like...
What's the word I'm looking for?
A cryptologist, maybe?
No, for, like, cracking the code.
A cryptologist studies codes.
Which would...
Would the codes be crypt?
I don't...
I don't know that that's what they're called.
Cryptids, maybe?
Cryptids are, like, weird creatures.
I don't know.
So, like, what's a cryptologist cracking?
Cryptologists work for, like, you know, secret agencies and the military and, like, computer companies.
Like, you know, they figure out figure out things clearly i have no clue what
one does they break codes i don't know how that's what i'm saying it's cryptology so in my mind i
think i was thinking cryptology so i'm thinking like cracking codes but then i can't say i couldn't
think of cryptologists but then it's like what's the word for cracking a code so i was like cryptology and then i couldn't
yeah but that's you don't say like i cryptology that code no you don't you're right you don't you cracked the code yeah yeah so that's what that's why i was lost there but now i feel like
they they wanted to be called cryptologists because code crackers doesn't sound that cool
what what are you?
I'm a Code Cracker.
That sounds like a show on a not popular TV channel.
Like today on BLC, the Bacon Lettuce Code Cracking Channel.
We've got bacon, we've got lettuce, and we've got codes.
It's a lot of food shows And then one code cracking show
That's very popular
They have a show about puzzle crackers
And then they have a show about actual crackers
Today we're putting bacon and lettuce on crackers
Today and tomorrow we'll be putting
Lettuce and
Other forms of bacon
Like Canadian bacon, back bacon
Puzzle crackers does not sound good
Like we're puzzle crackers That does not sound good. Like, we're puzzle crackers?
That does not sound as cool as code crackers.
Crack the puzzle.
Yeah, like crack the code.
Like, code?
We're puzzle breakers.
Like, that doesn't sound good either.
Code crackers?
Code breakers?
That sounds dope.
But puzzle?
That sounds like a group of moms.
We're the puzzle breaker society.
What do you do?
That's the puzzle solver society. We're the puzzle breaker society. What do you do? That's the puzzle solver society.
We're the puzzle solvers.
Yeah, I don't think that's good.
I don't think that's cool.
So yeah, there's that.
And then I was
watching, so like on the
Apple TV, right? So I got Apple TV
like years ago and now they just came out with a new
one, but I was like, I don't want a new Apple TV.
Like, this one works fine. Wait, what does that
mean? Like a physical
TV? Do you not know what an Apple
TV is? I know that there's a
product that you
buy. It's like Netflix, right?
Yeah, it's like a Roku or a
Fire Stick or any
of those things, right? Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
So I was like, I bought one like four years ago and I was like, well, this one still works
good.
I don't want to buy a new one, but they came out with a new remote and I hate the old remote
for the Apple TV because it's like, if you want to select something, you got to use the
touch pad and the touch pad pads like very sensitive.
So you're like, right.
But now at the new remote, they make it so you got like a wheel to
select stuff or the wheel has touchpad sensitivity so you can use the option of both so i'm like oh
i want that and so apparently that was like 50 bucks and then the buying the actual tv is like
170 and i was like give me the remote i don't care so i got the remote and it works great
so i'm happy about that so So Apple got you on something.
Before you were like, no, I don't think this new iPhone.
But now you're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, they got me.
Well, I mean, I like my iPhone.
I just don't like the new iPhone.
Right.
That's what I'm saying.
But the new whatever this is, the new ITV, you love it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
See, here's the thing.
The old Apple TV remote, if I had the option to buy another Apple TV with that remote, definitely a hard pass.
But this new remote, it's great.
It's what the remote should have been.
So I'm a big fan.
And then I was trying it out, right, because you've got to test out the remote, go around.
And I was like, let's see, what's something I can test it out on?
So I went to Disney Plus and I went to National Geographic.
Because they got like National Geographic stuff, right?
I'm waiting for how this relates to your, because it's just TV.
I'm so confused.
All right.
Yeah.
Well, it's like 4K and everything.
So I'm like, all right.
There's really no point.
Like, I already know the Apple TV can like, most things can play right uh it there's really no point like i already know
the apple tv can like most things can play 4k it's really i was like this will look cool and
i'll test it with the remote that's all i was doing so i go to the thing and i'm watching
uh yellowstone animals all right and there are some crazy animals
can i ask you a question? And I honestly mean this.
Would you ever go camping?
Like, would you ever go to Yellowstone?
I'd probably try camping,
but I don't know if I'd have a good time.
I might have, like, a good time for a day.
Yeah, I can't imagine that you would be like,
this is the life.
Well,
you know what?
I'd enjoy camping if it was like I said, one night,
one day. That's probably enough. Maybe
I'd go fishing. I'd enjoy that.
And then, you know,
eat some food on the grill.
And then the worst part would be
sleeping in a tent.
Yeah, would you need a camper?
I would, oh yeah, definitely need a camper.
That hard ground is going to mess up my back, my groin, my neck.
There's no helping me.
No helping me or helping me.
My back, my groin, my everything.
All the parts that matter.
You were like, it's going to mess it up.
Yeah, that up, my gird. Probably eat like that grilled food. It's going to mess it up. Add that up. My GERD.
Probably eat that grilled food.
It's going to have a lot of fattiness on it.
I'm not going to be able to digest that.
My heartburn is going to kick in because I'm laying flat instead of at a slight upward angle like I have with my heartburn pillow I use.
You guys.
How are you like this?
Everything. How are you like this? All I ask is like,
when you go camping, you're like,
I can't go camping because I got to get my angle right.
I got to get my hard-porned pillow.
I have to have my back and my groin.
You are...
Gotta have it, dude.
You are literally the
oldest person who ever lived.
I really am.
Then
just, you know, not enjoying
anything fun.
Really just caps it off.
So,
anyway, I'm watching National Geographic
and there's these animals going crazy because they're animals, right?
So, first animal is like a beaver, and it's like this family of beavers.
There's like the mom and the dad beaver and then the kids, and like the kids are running around in the house.
The mom's just like, hey, calm down.
And then the dad's like chopping down trees with his teeth.
So, like the tree's falling over.
He's like building their giant giant ass beaver dam.
Dad is chopping down with his...
His teeth.
He's gnawing the tree down.
And it falls over.
I mean, it makes sense.
It's what they do.
And he's picking up mud and putting mud on their thing.
And then the beavers store their food underwater because it's so cold underwater.
It lasts during
the winter and everything i was like dude they like built-in refrigeration in there like beavers
are living the life yeah if you ever see the sometimes they do charts online like you can find
infographics which i think is really weird but it's like beaver infographics and it shows like
how a beaver house looks from the side like a side view they're living large in there man they have like
underwater tunnels to get in and then underneath it's got like little rooms for each of them and
stuff they're doing it that's insane like beavers are i'd probably rather live in one of those than
go camping so then uh that was pretty neat then they moved down to like the otters they were like
surfing down a mountain.
I was like, whoa, look at them go.
Like they were snow surfing.
But then the fox tried to get the otters.
And I was like, they're not going to show a fox eating otter.
They didn't.
The otters got away.
And then one of the craziest ones was the rams.
Like, you know how rams got the big ass horns and they ram into each other which is where the term
like oh he rammed into me and stuff like that uh-huh yeah so i didn't realize how insane rams
get like it was like watching a free-for-all in the nfl or something but like they're they're built
like athletes like the one ram smashes into the other ram's head,
and they're just like, boom,
and they both just wobble around a bit.
And then another ram just rams into the side of his ass,
and it's like, boom, and his skin ripples.
And then the other one limps off.
They're like, now he has won the right to mate.
And then he goes over to the female ram,
and she's like, uh.
And then another ram comes out of nowhere to slam somebody.
He goes down the mountain.
I was like, what the shit is this?
Like, by the end of it.
Dating in 2021, man.
Like, by the end of it, it's like there's not even going to be any rams left.
They're all going to be falling over.
That's what that female ram was hoping for.
She's like, I got stuff to do today.
They're just like, God, these rams are dumb.
I mean, after that, they probably got like 20 concussions.
They probably are.
That is insane.
Because of the one ram, he like falls down the mountain.
You're like, oh, he's done.
And he just like runs back and rams through another one.
When you say fall down the mountain.
They fall down the mountain.
They're like, oh.
It's crazy just watch look up rams fighting on a mountain it's you're not going to be disappointed i guarantee it
um i really just need you to describe every ram fight you see from now on
because this is sound effects oh oh oh oh so that was uh
that was just that was crazy to watch wait how does this relate to your new remote control
how did that make this better that's what i that's what i got to from using the new remote control. How did that make this better? That's what I got to
from using the new remote control.
But it's just a remote control.
I thought you were going to be like, the interactivity
was so high. It's just a controller.
Yeah, but it was better than the old one.
That's really all that mattered about it.
I don't even know how...
Okay.
So that was pretty fun. How was your week? i don't know i'm trying to to minimize stuff and
like get stuff done and this is the thing i learned this week this is this is this is what
i've come to the conclusion i have been fighting all this time crendor to free up my life right
i'm like you know what i'm gonna get my schedule down i'm gonna try and like
do this stuff i'm gonna try and like make it so i can have hours and hours a day just like hang
out with friends and just spend time and do let me tell you ain't nobody else doing that i've i
have so much free time to like hang out with people ain't nobody hanging out everyone is like i got
like eight brand deals i gotta do this week i don't have time or like oh man i promised i would
stream today so i can't really do anything so i'm like what the hell am i doing this for
what am i doing this for if no one can do anything so i'm like well i guess i'll just like watch tv right
like okay cool sounds fun everyone's so busy being an adult sucks is what i'm saying that's true and
all this work to free up time to hang out with people and everyone's like his wife is really
really busy so either they hate me which you know is impossible or no way yeah there's no way or
they they can't manage their own time that's also very possible here's here's the thing with my
schedule so like i seem like i don't do anything but what i do is i break everything up into like
chunks so i'm like okay tonight I got a brain deal. I got
a stream from like 10 to midnight. And then I'm like, all right, I got to make a video. I'll do
that before I go to the gym. And then, you know, I got to do a Patreon thing. I'll do that after
the gym. And then I have to write my book for a bit. So I'm like, okay, I'll fit that in. I take
frequent breaks. I'm like doing stuff. If I'm like, uh, should I do this thing? I'm like, you
know what? Yeah, we're going to do that thing.
And we're going to take a break.
And we're going to like paint some Warhammer.
Something creative.
You need to like draw or something.
Or like paint.
I do.
I do need to.
I love Warhammer stuff.
And I would do that if I had.
I don't know.
I just.
Every time I think.
Oh.
I should take some down time for me.
When I do that.
I always am like. But I need. I got so many. When I do that, I always am like,
I got so many other things I have to do.
I don't know.
I always feel like I'm behind.
And we talked about this before.
I always feel like I'm behind and I'm trying to catch up.
And I never can catch up. He's talking about how you're watching TV.
Well, I'm watching TV because that's the thing.
I'm like trying to take a break.
Well, then why don't you take a break by doing something creative?
Well, that's look shut
up i'm trying to not do anything i don't if i'm creative i'm gonna be like well you know how does
this help a future project i'm doing or how does this you know it isn't just like i drew a picture
today right like i don't sometimes i don't have that in pictures i i I don't draw a doodle. It's helping you.
All right?
It's helping you by freeing up that part of your mind that's trying to be creative that you're blocking off by doing work.
And then when you do the creative thing, you feel more energized to do actual work.
Because you're like, wow, now I feel better by doing something creative and fun and doing that.
And then you go back to work.
You're like, wow, this is easier because now I'm fulfilled in other ways that I wasn't.
How are you more grounded than me how did this happen honestly it's probably ready to take
on the day than i ever will be that's probably the years of pain really just the health issues
they just wear you down to the point where you're like, I don't give a shit.
So then you just start having fun and doing things you want to do.
And you're like, this is fun.
And then you get a good work-life balance because you need it.
Because otherwise, you'll run yourself into the ground.
Your health is deteriorating.
You're falling apart.
Your blood pressure is high.
Your cholesterol is going up.
Your organs are getting removed.
Everything's going wrong.
And then you're nothing.
Damn.
Damn.
I feel like I've been pep-talked, and I don't know why.
Which is why you should buy my book, Get Up and Do Something,
by Trendor, coming to a Barnes & Noble near you this fall for a low price.
Why don't you write that book, Get Up and Do Something?
I probably should, actually.
That'd be a fun thing.
Just be like, here's my advice
Just do anything
This guy's right
I gotta do something
Wow this guy's advice is great
Chapter one do anything
I got to chapter one and I had to stop because it was great advice
I mean I was gonna release
My first book as my big like
Fantasy book I've put years of effort
Into and now I'm progressing with but This one sounds a lot easier to make as my first book as my big like fantasy book i've put years of effort into and now i'm
progressing with but this one sounds a lot easier to make as my first book that's what i'm saying
as a first book this is the one self-help that's what you gotta do i was gonna say uh
if you could i was gonna ask this earlier but now it seems more fitting if you could go back boy to one to one specific age in your childhood like 1 through 18
what would it be 1 through 18 or i guess 17 it's technically i would see i wouldn't even need to
go back that far but i'll stay within the parameters i know exactly where i go back to if I was able to go back. But 1 to 18 or 17, I would say if I went back to 18, I would tell myself,
you're doing great, kid.
Eat a salad.
That's what I would say.
That's all I would say.
Like, you know what?
You're doing great.
Everything about your life has been awesome.
Eat a salad. Don't, like, less hamburgers, more salads? You're doing great. Everything about your life has been awesome. Eat a salad.
Don't like less hamburgers, more salads.
You'll do great.
I mean, like, what would you go back to that to relive that part of your life?
Oh, you ask me to go back?
I would go back to 1999 was a good year.
good year like that was 99 was like a solid from spring to summer to fall that was like jesse you know i had like that last year school thing i worked at a movie theater during the summer
i remember that summer at the movie theater like hooked up with this girl in the projection room
that was great and then like you know i had my like first real
real girlfriend not like you know one of those like we kiss like real girlfriend kind of things
everything about that summer was like a solid hey this is gonna be a good year bro yeah that was 99
was a solid solid year for me so i would go back to then but like i don't know i don't think it's
very consequential of you know basically high school before that was high school and kind of sucked.
And 99 was like, hey, this is fun.
And then college was like college, you know, it was a lot of work and, you know, BS.
But my first year, freshman year of college is pretty fun.
But then after that, it was just like just like you know the same thing over and
over and over again and then would i go back to to school teaching jesse no school teaching jesse
was a mess school teaching jesse is the reason i'm going balding in the back yeah school teacher
jesse was stressed um and then yeah if i had to go back to a time period, I would say March 2012, Jesse,
because I know exactly what I would do. I'd go back because that was March 2012. Jesse was when
I was like, I was at the gym every day. I was like, I like had my shit together. I was at the
gym every day. I was in like a very, together i was at the gym every day i was in
like a very i'm gonna say it a pretty good relationship at the time that i felt like you
know looking back i probably could have handled like a little more kinder in a way that you know
when it's like i work all the time and this person is getting more jealous that i'm like
spending more time at work than with them that kind of thing yeah. And, you know, I definitely could have handled that better.
And like, there's a lot of things about that moment where I'd be like, dude, if you stay
on what you're doing 10 years from now, imagine what your life will be like.
Yeah.
And so, but here I am.
So I definitely would go back to that for sure.
Not that I would change anything about like, like what happened, but I definitely would go back to that for sure. Not that I would change anything about like what happened,
but I definitely would be like, hey, you know, you've learned a lot
and you really should rethink a lot of stuff about your life, pal.
And I would be, yeah.
But I still wouldn't change like this podcast would still exist
and I'd still stream and stuff.
Although, I don't know.
God help me.
Who knows what would have happened?
Maybe, you know what?
Maybe half the things that happened would have happened.
You know, if I would go left instead of right.
Yeah, you never know.
Man, this could be the Cox and Cox show.
That's not true.
The Cox and Cox show?
No. That's not true The Cox and Cox show No That's not true
I'm trying to see what video you made back then
In 2012?
Yeah
I'm trying to see like specifically
Because you said like March 20th or something
Well the reason why I said March 2012
Is that's when I moved to LA
Oh I see
And so Before that And this reason why I said March 2012 is that's when I moved to LA. Oh, I see.
And so, before that, and this is why I know.
When I lived, so, at the end of 2010 through all of 2011.
I'm trying to think of when it was in 2010.
October, November. I think I moved back home when I lost my job teaching with my parents in November or December of 2010. I had nothing. I was broke as shit. Moved back home and all 2011, I lived with
my parents. And that's when I started doing YouTube full time as like a goof. And it wasn't
until December of 2011 that I actually started making money. I was like, oh, my God.
And but so in between.
And look, I love my parents.
I love them to death.
But all I was doing was staying at home and staying around my parents all day.
They like annoy the hell out of me.
Like maybe find a job substitute teaching.
And I was just like, oh, my God, stop.
And I kept trying to pressure me to do stuff. And I was like, I oh my God, stop. And they kept trying to pressure me to do stuff.
And I was like, I am suffering low-grade depression.
I am doing nothing right now.
I am living at home with my parents at the age of 29.
I literally, like, leave me alone.
And of course, they didn't.
So my one way to get away from them was I had the gym membership.
And so I'd leave the house and go to the gym and hide out there and then,
you know,
work out at the same time. I did that for a whole year.
And,
uh,
yeah,
I lost like 80 pounds during that,
during that time.
And then I moved to LA and when I got to LA,
I had none of that,
you know,
I had nowhere to work out,
nothing to do.
And then I spent all my time working.
And I just like, looks like I'm going to gain it all back, like that kind of stuff.
And over the last 10 years, I pretty much did.
And now I'm like, oh, man.
So that's what I'm saying is I would go back and be like, Jesse, you fool.
You're looking great.
You're feeling great.
Don't be a dummy.
Yeah.
I was checking your videos from then. You had announcement Jesse in Poland and Norway this week.
Yeah.
You had.
That's when I went.
That's when I went to Warsaw for the first time.
That's when I went to Oslo.
That was great.
You had Misa Pandaria.
Probably with you. It was great. You had Mists of Pandaria. Probably with you.
It was. Part 2, a new style
of phasing with
Krendor.
Deus Ex.
Human Revolution.
You had Terraria Part 28.
Jesse is bad at
going it alone.
As we've learned,
that's true.
Yes.
If anything, very prophetic.
And we had Saints Row III,
Cox and Crandor Part 11,
What's Seen Can't Be Unseen.
This is, again,
you said it would be the Cox and Cox,
but I'm telling you,
it would still be Cox and Crandor.
That's true.
Nothing would change.
Nothing would change.
Skyrim Part 55, I had a dream it would still be cox and craig that's true nothing would change nothing would change skyrim part 55 i had a dream it would end this way it's really it all adds up yeah yeah and
that's you know those are the those are the days way back when in 2012 and i uh yeah i would
definitely go back and i also would tell 2012 jesse stop doing Let's Plays. Do something else.
Have fun with your life.
See, if I had to go back, I would go back to,
there was like, maybe when I was 12 years old, 12, 13.
That was a prime time.
So I was like seventh, eighth grade.
And then I was playing MU Online with a bunch of friends,
which was like my first ever RPG
So I was super addicted to that what the hell is em you online? It's like an old-school Korean online RPG
It was it came out like 2002 and
Like it's pretty much Diablo they copied Diablo, but they made it online and really janky.
When you're 13, you're like,
this is crazy. You can get gear and equip it.
You would just
tape your mouse down and go
AFK farm stuff.
MU Online, I'm looking at it right now.
Every year I go back
and I do a nostalgia trip where I just look at stuff.
I have one of the top
MU Online videos, so I always get MU
Online YouTube views and they're just like
this guy's idiot.
It's like a bunch of people
can't really speak English.
I love that the
artwork on the main page
is like a fully
clothed ninja knight
and then like his buxom
elvish companion.
You know. You know how it is.
Yeah, I remember that was a good time.
Then there was, I was painting Warhammer for the first time back then.
So like that was my initial getting into Warhammer time and i was like younger and had imagination now i'm older and have imagination but back then it's like you
get super i was about to say you have zero imagination problems that's for sure yeah um
and then you know i was just hanging out with friends i remember i'd like go by my friend's
house we play like basketball and like football and we just run around and then play emu online in fact my one friend was playing and we were all outside we're like come play sports
and he's like i'm grinding jewels of chaos and we're like shut up idiot and uh his dad his dad
would just be like get outside get off the computer so then he'd have to come outside
so that was fun uh you know it was a good time and you you didn't have to come outside. So that was fun. You know, it was a good time.
And you didn't have to worry about doing anything.
So that was fun.
So you're telling me you just want to go back to a time in your life
where you don't have to worry about doing anything?
No, maybe just that one specifically, though.
I have a lot of memories from that specific like time period i
guess so i don't know i feel like there's other years i didn't do anything and i don't really
remember those i mean in fact last year i didn't really do anything uh but you know uh that would
be one and then if i had to pick like a youtube year i think i'd probably pick like 20 maybe like 2013 or 14 I think that was
my YouTube Prime I think it was everyone's YouTube Prime I don't know
that I think everybody I mean I guess they're I'm talking about people like us
oh yeah well not like the new the new kids with their fancy lives and shit.
Oh, yeah.
Listen, I'm not top 1,000 on Twitch, all right?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Can I tell you?
So I saw the list of all the top earners, right?
And I was like, I got to see where I'm at on this list because there's no way i'm
even on it i was like there's no i don't there's no way i'm showing up on this list so i start
scrolling through and it's all the big earners and i'm like wow they made a lot of money and i
keep scrolling and scrolling and then i see like dodger and sam and i keep scrolling and scrolling
and i'm like all right well there's the top 1000 and i keep scrolling keep scrolling i'm like, all right, well, there's the top 1,000. And I keep scrolling. Keep scrolling. I'm like, where the hell is – am I not even in the top 2,000?
And at a certain point, I saw Crendor.
I was like –
Dude, I'm like 1750 or something.
I was like, oh, there's Crendor.
Well, I know I'm lower than Crendor.
Okay.
So I keep scrolling.
I keep scrolling.
I keep scrolling.
I'm at like 3 000 and
i'm just like i there's no way so i just for some reason i was like oh yeah i should just
like search my name so i searched my name i'm like 4 000 something i was like are you telling me
in the totality of all of twitch this is how much i made like why am i even doing i was like jesse you've
waster of time this is this is i was like why am i doing this is like oh you're so dumb
all i know is is that i can't wait look i want this video game company to like make a ton of
money so i don't have to do videos or anything anymore. I swear to God. I'll make videos for fun, but I don't want to have to rely on
them as like, this is my job.
Oh, I hate it. Oh, Crandall,
I hate it.
Listen, I'm just saying, as a top
2,000 Twitch streamer,
I just say
I'm like the Kyle Korver of Twitch.
Now, if you don't know who Kyle Korver
is, you don't watch the NBA.
Kyle Korver has been around since
2003 all right he has played nearly 20 years he had one all-star year which coincidentally was
2014 probably my best youtube year all right uh and he pretty much comes in he hits three pointers
and that's it that's all he does he comes in threes, but everybody's like, oh, yeah, it's Kyle Korver.
You know, he hits threes sometimes.
He's like 80 years old, but, you know, that's what he does.
That's what he does.
So that's my comparison.
I mean, otherwise, in fact, my stats got boosted because in 2019,
I had like my best Twitch year ever with Classic WoW and everything.
We have not been back to those levels in quite some time.
So it wouldn't surprise me if I'm not even in the top 2,000 anymore.
But yeah, whatever.
You know?
It's interesting.
So I don't know if you saw on that list, but some of the names on that list have less views than you and I, but make twice as much.
Yeah, they're just grinding out the folks. We need those twitch primes listen
I only do my twitch prime promotions once every like 30 minutes. Maybe I got up at the once every 10 seconds
I don't do them at all well. There's your problem
Okay, I've always said this twitch. You're essentially just, you're like somebody playing a saxophone on the street corner.
Oh, for sure. Agreed.
You have to constantly be like,
hey, tips over there.
Like, keep pointing it out.
Otherwise, people are just going to walk by and be like,
ah, whatever.
But if you go like, hey, thanks for the tips,
people will be like, ah, all right, I'll throw them something.
Like, you have to actively be like, come on.
I can't do that.
I'm terrible at that. I can't do that i'm terrible at that i can't do it
crondor i can't do it you used to always say what was your thing promote like shameless
whores or whatever that's what you said that's your thing that's true look i know what i said
do as i say not as i do
that's uh listen this guy
either way i'm aware of all my faults and my my foibles i understand that i am the problem
i will say i think out of all the platforms i think podcasting is the one i have the most fun
with because you know i just rant uh and then i'd say second is still youtube like
i got started with youtube i still like doing youtube to me you know i prefer the creative
aspect of it and then putting up a video and people going whoo nice uh so that's why i'm
actually working on pointless top 10 fishing spots in final fantasy um i will promote the
hell out of that video.
They're good. They're all
filmed. I just gotta do some audio.
It's gonna go up this week. Pointless fishing
spots. I don't even know what that means.
You'll find out. Every spot's pointless, technically.
Exactly. These are the
top ones. Oh, boy.
Oh, boy. That's gonna be a good-ass video.
I can tell.
I'm pumped to put that out because
like there's the thing where like you know if you make some videos being like what's going on
with this thing and it's like a discussion video like those are they're okay but they're not
there there's something about like putting effort into a video and like writing it or filming it
and audio and putting all this like creative effort into it and then putting it up and people
enjoy it compared to other stuff that's rewarding for sure definitely i i watch some of the other people in the sort of
like final fantasy space when i'm making videos and their videos are like them on a camera and
they're like hey i'm talking about an issue and this is the thing i care about and they get plenty
of views right but i'm also just like i don't want to make that video like bless them that exists
they exist they're doing their thing that's not ever gonna I'd never want to be the person that's
like and now the news that's taking place in a game like I don't want to be that person that
sucks that means I have to stay up to date on everything that's going on I have to like learn
things like now I'm good I want to make a video that's like this is a cute monster. His name is
Philip and he's cute.
Philip the cute monster.
Yeah, he's a monster
and he's cute. What's the problem?
That's a good point.
What is the problem?
The problem
is our lack of imagination
in our current society.
Well, you know what isn't a problem?
Hey!
Whoa!

Oh boy traffic is happening. Oh boy, traffic is happening.
It is, uh, it is happening right now, folks.
If you thought traffic wasn't happening, well, stop.
Because you're in some traffic right now.
Uh, I am looking over here.
It looks like the cat is looking at me.
He is looking at me indeed.
He doesn't know why I'm doing this.
I don't know how he can see all the way into the sky.
That's kind of weird, especially as he sits in his chair, but he is very confused.
And he's still looking.
Back to you.
Thanks, Crandor.
Good traffic report.
All right.
Let's go to weather.
Weather time.
So typically we try to do some wacky weather names,
but today I saw a comment.
Someone said,
I used to live in Hawaii until financial struggles forced me back to Wyoming
earlier this year.
Since it's starting to get cold out here,
could you do the weather from Kailua, Hawaii,
so I can think of the better times?
Parentheses, be careful you don't end up in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii,
which is also a major town but on a completely different island.
Oh, see?
This is the kind of help we need.
This is.
Yeah, this is helpful.
All right, Kailua, Hawaii.
Okay, I think I got it.
I think this is it.
85 degrees Fahrenheit.
Partly cloudy.
17% chance of rain through 1 p.m.
Red flag warning.
Red flag warning means that critical fire weather conditions are occurring now or will shortly.
Uh-oh.
Let's see.
There's also a high surf advisory.
Watch out for high surfing.
Nah, that's just how they're going to put out those fires.
It feels like 90.
You got a high 85, 74 humidity 62 percent 29.99 inches of pressure so close to 30 visibility 10 miles when the wind is 12 miles an hour going northeast
yeah your dew point at 70 or uv index is extreme and your moon phase is a waxing crescent looking at the 10 day we've got 86 mostly sunny
on monday 86 partly cloudy on tuesday 86 isolated thunderstorms wednesday and then you got thursday
friday saturday all with showers and 84 degrees and then sunday showers with 83 degrees so
in fact the over 50 of the days next week are just 83 degrees.
So that's how Kailua, Hawaii is looking on top of us.
So, I mean, it's warm, but it's wet.
Great for surfing.
Great for surfing.
Yeah, watch out for those waves.
Watch for the high tide.
Okay, let's go to sports.
Sports. Oh, yeah, I forgot to say that's the weather. That's to sports. Sports.

coach urban meyer uh instead of flying back home with the team last week was caught at a bar grope or uh is grinding

because they're like why is he not with the team the team's like dude this guy sucks he's not even
like with us and then today had some bad coaching decisions uh he's also had bad histories of just being a shitty person uh so

So I'm very excited.
And that is sports.
Okay.
What is our weird fact of the day?
Weird fact of the day?
It's about bumblebees.
All right, yeah.
Bumblebees can fly higher than Mount Everest.
Have we seen that happen?
I've heard this before, but have we ever seen it happen?
Let's find out.
If you thought it was impressive that humans can make it to the top of Mount Everest,
you'll be stunned to find out bumblebees can make it to the summit.
make it to the top of Mount Everest, you'll be stunned to find out bumblebees can make it to the summit.
Researchers who tracked
two bees were able to fly at more than
29,525 feet
or 9,000 meters,
which is higher than Everest. Admitted they
were shocked at how high they could fly.
Yo,
those bees flying high.
So, alright, I typed in bumblebee
actually, I typed in photo of
bumblebee flying high. And I got a bunch of photos of them
Of like bumblebees looking weird and I didn't know why
And then I realized because I wrote H-I
Instead of H-I-G-H
Flying high man
But even flying high
Doesn't make any sense
Because I was like waving high
So it just like
What is
But I can find no photos of bumblebees flying high
either oh yeah i see the one bumblebee he's just like a drawn bumblebee and he's like hey i'm a
bumblebee yeah i see that one i got a i got a bumblebee that looks like it's a stuffed bumblebee
and then i like but nothing of like maybe bumblebee everest uh yeah i just want to people keep saying this but i just want to see
it yeah i guess they didn't even well i guess they tracked it maybe they tracked the bees they
knew they flew that high but then they obviously didn't like take pictures or anything I guess I guess
Commercial airliners
Are at 10,000 meters
Everest is at
8,848 meters
So they're telling us that
Basically bumblebees can fly almost as high
As airplanes
But geese
Can reach 2,000
That's the highest
And house flies can go up reach 2,000. That's the highest.
Huh.
And house flies can go up to 1,000.
I don't know, man.
These bees are crazy.
But without the bees, we're dead.
We're doomed. Yeah, no, they can be as crazy as they want.
We need them.
Yeah.
You go crazy, bees.
Do whatever you got to do.
Yeah, so that's your random fact.
All right.
I mean, yeah, I want more evidence of it, but I dig it.
Somebody find us evidence.
Yeah, scientist, what are you doing?
All right, what is our big news story of the day?
Big news story of the day, folks.
We've got a good one the day, folks.
We've got a good one.
Oh, no.
Yeah?
Nutty squirrel leaves 42 gallons of nuts in man's Chevy Avalanche.
You know what?
I know it's like a silly story, but something about it seems very dirty maybe it's the phrase gallons
that word stands out these gallons of dropping gallons
sounds weird all right yes a squirrel in fargogo, North Dakota. Not pounds of nuts, gallons of nuts.
It just doesn't sound right.
It just doesn't sound right.
A squirrel in Fargo, North Dakota is really nuts for walnuts
to the point of where it collected 42 gallons.
Bill Fisher said he came home from a four-day work trip earlier this month,
discovered his truck was filled with the walnuts, each the size of a lime.
As his Facebook photos show, the walnuts were tucked into every nook and cranny of the Chevy,
including the engine compartment and the fenders.
Fisher removed enough to fill seven six-gallon containers.
I had to pull fenders off, clean out all the walnuts,
thought I had them all, took it down the road, turned a corner, found
one rolling down the windshield where the
wipers go.
As nutty as this might seem,
it's nut, nut
the first time this happened. Get him out of here.
Oh, I hate that.
Oh, I hate that.
Someone went to school and
this is what they're being paid to write.
I'm an English major, damn it.
You'll put nuts in there and you'll like it.
Can we change it's not the first time that it's not the first time.
I'd really like to not.
You're going to do it.
You're going to like it.
You'd like to not?
No, you'd like to not.
Stop it.
Mention the gallons.
Gallons. I have a doctorate in english stop fisher said red squirrels have been using his truck to store walnuts from his neighbor's tree every two years the trees
uh maturation cycle since 2013 i've got other vehicles to sit close to that tree and it's
always my truck i haven't parked purposely out in the street as far as I can from the tree,
and they still go find that avalanche.
It's their winter home.
This guy doesn't get it.
In the winter, they live in that thing.
Exactly.
That's the winter home.
I've got other vehicles that sit very close to that tree.
That's always my truck.
Over the years, Fisher has learned how to deal with the squirrely behavior.
He knows when the walnuts fall off the tree, it's time to check the engine.
He has also learned to wait until there are no walnuts left lying under the tree
before commencing the cleanup.
The squirrels sit in the tree and watch me clean up the walnuts,
almost like, that's mine, buddy, as he's watching me clean up the stuff.
You know they're pissed off.
This son of a bitch.
One day we're going to get him.
That's right, pal.
One day.
We'll show him.
We'll show him all.
Stuff his whole damn body full of nuts.
Gallons of nuts.
Damn.
Still, he wasn't prepared for just how many nuts would be squirreled away this year.
The squirrel set a record.
Most I ever pulled out was four, five, six gallon buckets.
This year was seven.
Fisher had to remove the fender from the truck to extract some of the nuts,
which he is now offering to any human who wants them.
He's going to give them away.
Those squirrels are disguised playing with fire.
But the squirrel's cache won't be completely gone.
I have some rolling around the frame rails,
as well, that I can't get at, he said.
Damn, so they got him in the hard-to-reach place.
You can't even get him there.
I feel bad for the squirrels.
I don't feel for this guy at all.
The squirrels, I'm like, these poor guys.
There, it's the...
I showed you the picture there.
These poor squirrels, just trying to live their lives.
Yeah, they just found an amazing storage for their nuts.
This guy's ruining it.
Ruining it.
I feel bad for the squirrels.
I think the guy should have put the containers under the tree.
Yeah. And then
the squirrels could have just eaten them all winter from the
containers. And then they could have been friends.
And he could have taught them a lesson. Don't stick it
in... I love
that this... I mean
they really did store those
nuts.
They really did.
They really did store those nuts yeah that's a that's definitely
uh full of nuts yep
you're not wrong he could have done a lot to help them instead he
chose violence you know what the squirrels the squirrels take him out
i will not be sad i'll be like you know what? The squirrels take him out. I will not be sad. I'll be like,
you know what? Deserved.
They just want to get fat
and sleep. That's all they want. Yeah.
That's all they want. That's all any of us
want, really. That's true.
