Hello, everybody. It's time for Ghost on Trending. This is Trending in the morning. In the morning. Broadcasting live, live, live, live, live. In four-hour recording studios. Recording. Wake your ass up.

This is Ghost on Trendall in the morning. Yeah, November. Whoa, alright. Actually, you know what, I'm feeling the same. Probably not for the same reason though. Yeah. Why are you, November I actually think I like November more than I like December

is there a reason though I think so so I think you think so I think so so I just like cause November is when you get up to thanksgiving at least in america right so it becomes more like fall uh temperatures get a little bit cooler

uh i hate that the days get shorter but that happens anyway uh and then you know just uh i think i enjoy the holiday feeling going up to Thanksgiving and just like people start putting up Christmas stuff, but not like, I feel like you can't go all out with it. You know, it's kind of like a Halloween Christmas. I feel like people are though. I feel like they're doing it more and more sooner and sooner. It's out of control.

They are. But like, I don't mind a little bit. It's when they go all out, right? Like, I don't think you should have your Christmas tree up up yet but you know you can put some lights out you can put uh you know put like a turkey out but pull like a a christmas light on i don't know put it put a turkey out with a christmas light on it yeah yeah yeah you know just like you start ramping up uh and then it feels like everybody's more in like the festive spirit because like halloween's done they're like oh here comes thanksgiving people are like this is always when I'd go out to breakfast,

and people are like, I can't wait for the holidays. I'm going to see my niece and granddaughter, and we're going to be doing this. Everyone's kind of excited. Then you've got Thanksgiving. Everybody eats. That's very Midwestern of you. Yeah.

You have seasons. It's cold there now. I was having a conversation the other day with someone. They were like, man, at night, I'm sleeping with like two comforters on. I was like, oh, right, because there's seasons in other places. Right, right, right. I forgot. It's still exactly 70 degrees here.

I was like, oh, right, right, right, right, right. If anything, you're the weird one. Most of the world's the weird one. I am the weird one. Admittedly, again, you're excited because it's like the holiday season. Me, I'm excited because Starbucks has sugarplum danishes starting in November, and I love those. That's really it. That's how I know it's now wintertime.

Like, oh, damn, they got sugarplum danishes? That's delicious. And the McRib, of course. Right. Well, I mean, I would choose a sugarplum danish over McRib any day of the week. of course right well i mean i would choose a sugarplum danish over mcrib any day of the week uh but see the thing is then thanksgiving you know and then the thing is after thanksgiving i feel like it actually gets too insane like after thanksgiving people start really ramping up christmas everybody's really starting to sell people are just they start getting stressed after

thanksgiving you get black friday hits everyone's like and then they're just like i got a plan for the holiday we got Christmas we got all this stuff and then it was just like like pushing each other trying to buy like Christmas gifts then they're just like oh my god I can't wait for Christmas to get here it's gonna be they're stressful and all this stuff and then it ends and then everyone's like all right well we're done well you got New Year's and then you're done I think it's because a lot of normies, and I say normies in a nice way because I'm the odd one out here, clearly. A lot of people, after Thanksgiving, they spend time with family and family is stressful, so they're a little stressed. Then, as we get closer to the end of the year, kids, if you have kids, they're off of school. Your job gets a little more stressful because it's the end of the year and the boss is getting you to do stuff

Before they know that you gotta take some time For those kids And now you gotta deal with all that stuff Plus getting gifts to make those little Bastards happy And then you have to do all this stuff And then you still have New Years Which is a whole thing you have to deal with

Plus it's cold in a lot of places Plus you know there's everything. You're going out more. You're spending more money. I get it. I absolutely get it. Not me. I'm not doing any of that, but I get it. Yeah. I'm living

in a 70-degree paradise. I guess I'll sleep to noon today. I'm not doing that. To me, I've said it before, but I don't like the constant 70 degrees. That would actually depress me. Oh, not me. It fills me with joy.

I woke up today, was like, God, it's beautiful out. Took a look, went for a little walk. Came into the office at like, eh, like noon-ish. It was good times. Well, today it was like 60 here, like 55, 60. It was great. Well, that's was like 60 here, like 55, 60. It was great. Well, that's because Chicago is a hellscape. The one time I was there this year, it was like 104 degrees.

I was like, it's not even remotely like this in LA. It was crazy. And it's funny because Halloween, we actually got snow. It was like, it didn't like stick to the ground really but it was just like heavy wet snow just like sticking to cars and sticking i was like oh god it's and so it was shitty for trick-or-treaters well i'll stay with my neutral 70 year round thank you very much that's fine no i love me some seasons uh but main point being the closer you get to christmas the crazier people get the more stressed out people get.

And it's just, it gets too crazy. That's why, you know, that's why November it's a, it's a nice chill holiday style month. December gets crazy. Well, speaking of crazy, because I don't know if it again falls under the category of what you're talking about, but, um, oh boy. So right before we started recording this, I was like, dude, I need to go get some coffee or something. And I went into the kitchen and I got nothing. I got nothing. So I was like, all right, well, guess I'll run over to Starbucks.

And so I put in a phone order and I was going to go over to pick it up. The Starbucks nearest to me is in a very small shopping center. It's not that big. And there's, I don't know, on average average i'll say 15 to 20 parking spaces for the entire shopping it's like one of those like corner markets in la um you know it's like a bunch of different stores and most of the stores are like a juice place a place to get like cryogenically frozen a bank you've never heard of and some math tutoring thing that is like in a language you don't know you know like that kind of stuff.

But there's also a Starbucks there and the Starbucks I pull up to go get my drink. I would say of the 15 to 20 parking spaces, almost all of them are filled except there's one spot and this one spot someone has parked diagonally in so there's no place for me to park i'm like oh god so i go around the corner park like you know down the block right walk up to it and inside uh you know there's a bunch of people inside the starbucks you know like doing whatever the hell writing a script or i don't know whatever the hell people do at starbucks in la but there's one girl and when i say girl what i really mean is potentially 40 year old woman cannot tell clearly has had some work done but also has the look of someone who has spent her entire life partying you know that look yes

where it's like yo she's ragged like a bottle you bottle blonde, but her hair is like a little frizzy. And, you know, face and body that looks like it has had a lot of work, but also at the same time could potentially be a 70-year-old. Like that kind of vibe. Yes. Very L.A. And she's sitting there on her phone, like, taking photos of herself while waiting for her coffee.

There's no one else waiting for coffee. And I'm like, hey, are you waiting for your coffee? And she's like, yes, I am. I'm like, oh, okay. Well, my order's right there, so I'm just gonna grab that, okay? And she's like, uh, wait your turn. Thankfully, people at Starbucks know me because, like, I've been going

there for, uh, ten years. They were like, uh, hey, Jesse, here's your order, and they handed it to me. And this woman like, gave out a huff, like, huh. Like, not even like a huff. Not even a huff. Like a. Just some gross. Anyway.

So I'm talking with them. And one of the baristas is like. Here's your order for Tammy. And she's like. That's me. And so she grabs her drink and starts to leave. And I'm like. Alright.

I'll see you guys later. And I go to leave. And of course. Again. The, I'll see you guys later. And I go to leave. And of course, again, the best way to describe her is like an ageless being from hell who is wearing a too big, uh, overcoat, like,

like freezing cold coat, like a puffy jacket with sweatpants and a t-shirt. And underneath that t-shirt, it says something about like mom's rule. And of course, she goes to the white double parked Mercedes. Of course. Gets in the car, gives me this like gross look of like, what? And then I like walk around the corner. And I'm letting you know,

I realized in that moment, I don't hate many people. I'm not a hater, but I figured out what kind of people I definitely don't like. I was like, that person is right. That's like you fit the Venn diagram of every single thing I don't

like in a person perfectly, ma'am. Oh my God. I was like, yo, that's a bad human being right there. don't like in a person perfectly ma'am oh my god I was like yo that's a bad human being right there I was like that person's a piece of shit so uh yeah I mean again I'm not saying that's her all the time maybe it's a holiday thing right maybe but in this moment in November that was the start of of like oh, if this is what I have to deal with for the rest of the year, F those people. Oh, yeah. She sucked. What a terrible person.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. I cannot stress this. The noises she made with her mouth weren't like, ugh, you know, like if you're disgusted or whatever. Hers like, nah. Like, nah. Yes. Just, ugh. Yes.

Ugh. Just like loud and obnoxious. Like a lot of look at me energy. I'm the main character vibes. Yeah. And again, on her phone. And as I walk in, she's on her phone, just like looking at herself on her phone, not taking photos, just like looking at herself and like making faces. Dude, I can't. I can't with people sometimes.

I was like, yo, you are a bad person. I don't know you, but I'm judging you right now. Yeah, LA's got a lot of them. Yes. Oh, so many. But the thing is, they all kind of keep it contained. That's true. You can tell they're a bad person, but they don't let the full bad out.

This person is like an amorphous, I don't know anything about this person, and I don't like them. They've transcended. She's done nothing personal to me that I should be really mad about. But just in her presence, her aura, I was like, nope, you're bad news, lady.

I don't want to even be around you right now. And then she'd probably be like, my aura, my aura is great. Like, ugh, barf. Well, I thought you were going to tell a different story, but that was a fun story. What story were you thinking? I thought you were going to talk about how you hurt yourself. Oh, dude, I'm so...

So, earlier this week, I got my dear friend, Julia Hardy, who, you know, if you're a listener of this show or the Co-Optional Podcast days, Julia's great. She's amazing. She was in town to audition for a bunch of stuff, and she was like, yo, I'm in town. Let's go out. I was like, okay. So's amazing. She was in town to audition for a bunch of stuff. And she

was like, yo, I'm in town. Let's go out. I was like, okay. So we went out and we went to like a fantastic Mexican place, got a bunch of drinks and some tacos and hung out. I don't know if it was cause we sat in the craziest chairs I've ever sat in my entire life. My legs were like in a weird position. Or if it's because we were like being goofy. I don't know. I don't know, Crandor. All I know is the next day I woke up, my lower back had a pain I've never felt before in my life.

My right leg hurt and my left foot hurt. I don't know what I did. But I was like, oh man, I'm in so much pain. I came to the office, and it was Wednesday, and I was like, guys, I'm in a lot of pain today, so I'm going to try and get this news done and try and do some stuff, and I simply couldn't. I couldn't function. I hurt so bad that I lasted maybe an hour before.

I was like, I got to go home. I got to go home and lay in bed. So I gave up doing any, I gotta go home. I gotta go home and lay in bed. So I gave up doing any work and just went home. And I hurt so bad on Wednesday that all I did was, I didn't eat

a thing. All I did was drink three bottles of water, like big jugs of water, and sleep. And then I woke up Thursday and I was, you know, I hurt a little bit, but I wasn't a hundred percent. And I was like, okay, I'm not going to chance it. So I spent all day Thursday, like in bed, just trying to relax, like moving.

Just to give you an example, over those two days, my bedroom is maybe two seconds walk to the bathroom. Right. It took me four minutes. I, like, each step, like, I've often wondered, you know how you see videos of people who, like, are injured or forget, like, they need to relearn how to walk. Yeah. That was me. I couldn't lift my right leg. My foot worked, but my leg wasn't working.

And every time I moved it, it hurt. So I was trying to move it, plus my left foot hurt. So I'm trying to, like, holding the walls, trying to get to the bathroom. It sucked, dude. Sucked. And so Thursday

when I started to feel a little bit better, I was like, I'm not going through. I don't want to feel that pain ever again. That was the worst. So I just laid in bed. And Friday was fine. I woke up Friday 100%. And so I sat around and I was just like, I never want to feel that way again. That was the worst pain I've ever felt. I was like, I need to work out a lot more,

and I need to go on more walks and take care of myself a lot more. Maybe because I went out and I drank a bunch. I don't know. Drink less. Just be a better human being. I was like, I got it. I got to step it up.

So I'm making a lot of changes. This truly is your Crandor arc. I've never felt a pain like that. It hurts so badly. I honestly, and then here's the thing. That's the third time this year, random wake up the next day pain.

Yeah, no, I've had that third time. Let's say you're talking to the person. I've had numerous wake ups and be like, Oh, today's gone. And I,

and that's, that's not a normal thing for me. And I was like, oh, today's gone. And that's not a normal thing for me. And I was like, yo, this is definitely fat boy getting old syndrome, and I'm not here for it. I don't want this ever again. So I was like, yo, I'm done. I'm done with this shit. There was a moment where I was trying to walk to the bathroom,

and I was like, I would rather just be dead than feel this pain. It hurt so badly. Like, I had a shooting pain up my back from, like, even moving. My leg wasn't moving at all. My right leg, I had to, like, heal it. I couldn't. The toes hurt, so I had to, like, use my heel to walk. Dude, I was so over it.

I was like, I can't do this anymore. I was like, if I just die in this toilet, that's fine. Just take me. It's less embarrassing than this pain. Oh, it sucked, dude. It sucked. Maybe it's your sciatica. I couldn't tell you, man.

I couldn't tell you. I don't know. Is it like the back of your leg? No, no. It was so on my left foot, it was the under heel. Like the muscle was like really sore. Couldn't explain why. So I couldn't walk on that.

It hurt so much. But then on my right leg, it was from like the knee down to about the ankle was so sore. My lower back, just like a sharp pain. I don't know what I did, but like I couldn't move side to side. So it was like the muscle there, I tweaked it in some way. And so, you know, I couldn't shift my body. And so, yeah, I just laid there and it sucks so bad. And then again, it was gone.

Like it was, you know, it was almost completely gone on Thursday. And then on Friday it was 100% gone. And I was just like, nah, I'm good. I'm over it. I'm done. So I'm literally like, I hate to break it to everyone on YouTube and everyone doing like, I'm changing a lot of my life. I'm making a lot of big changes.

So we'll probably make a video this week about it. But like, I can't do this 12, 14, 16 hour day at the office stuff anymore. I'm over it. I can't do it. Dude, you're really. Especially considering a lot of that sitting. Like, no, I can't. I can't.

You actually have hit the creme d'or. That's what happened with my neck is you just wake up and then I'm just like, oh, no. And you just can't turn your head. You can't look around. And then I remember being like I'm gonna go for a walk I couldn't even go for a walk because they like the act of walking moves you enough to where you're like I can't walk and so I just like sat in a chair for a day and then had to like lay in bed and even just getting out of bed you're just like oh boy here we go it takes

like 20 minutes and then the next day you're like hey you know what I can kind of look around and then the next day you're like wow I could look even more and then you're like all right i'm good yeah i'm i'm afraid that i'll get to the point where it's like well i got hurt and i should be fine in two days okay but like two weeks go by yeah you know i don't want that i need to body prep or like i'm like all right we're future we're future prepping this is i can't do this anymore like no thanks i'm over it yeah no that's uh that's really the reason i started working out in general is just us falling apart i was like dude i gotta i gotta work out and here i am years later loving it so it's uh it usually just takes something that's why everyone's like how do you keep going to the gym like because uh i'd like not being in pain for real talk and i think like that's the thing is it's just like well

you know i'll have bursts where i'm like i'm working out a bunch and then i'll just like get caught up in some stuff and it'll fall off and now i'm like yo i can't afford to not be taking care of myself better. Like, oh, my God. No, thank you. That was ass. Yeah, well, hopefully you put together something. Maybe you just got to strengthen your core. You got to strengthen your back muscles or something. I mean, when I was – I think the thing is just, it is a

lot of, like, our job is just, like, a lot of sitting. Yeah. And so it's very, so when I was younger, this is absolutely true, I don't care if the world believes this or not, when I was younger, I had, like, awesome legs.

Like, it was a thing. Like, you know, the rest would be kind of a mess, but my legs were fit. Even at one point, and it's weird, a female teacher once talked. We did a costume, and one of the teachers was like,

nice legs, Jesse, which is a weird thing for a female teacher to say. I was a senior in high school, and it was a weird kind of like, okay. But looking back, very strange. But like, yeah. And then, you know, just this job is a, you know, I was a teacher.

So I did a lot of moving around and stuff. But like, oh, let me tell you. But honestly, I'm gonna put a little blame. I'm gonna put all the blame on me. But I'm gonna put most of the blame on the fact that throughout college and into my first big job as a teacher, my one thing I would do when I wasn't teaching was like, oh, thank God. I can go home and play World of Warcraft. Yeah. And I would play like 16 hours of that. Yeah.

And I think that was, yeah, that was probably the start of that pain. Probably not a good thing. Oh, yeah. No, that definitely contributed to my neck pain. Yeah. No doubt. This definitely feels like a, like, hey, gamers out there, please get up and move around.

Like, this feels like, listen to us old gamers talk about, like, hey, gamers out there, please get up and move around. This feels like, listen to us old gamers talk about, like, you really fucked up and you're still playing 15 hours a day. It's gonna be even worse, because then everybody, not even gay, just looking down at their phones. You're just, like, constantly looking down. Thankfully, I don't have that problem. Oh, my God. Yeah.

I see that, like, that weird, like, neck back bump thing. Yeah, the old phone bump no no thank you yeah that's that's gonna be a rough one uh speaking of which there's uh did you you watched the blizzcon you reacted to it i saw i did i saw you reacted as well i did it was uh i was i was pretty excited i saw xbox man come out and it was like, dude, what's his name? Xbox Man. Yeah.

Old Xbox Man. Honestly, the reactions of the crowd were the exact same reactions I had. Yeah. If you want to take the time to watch the video, it's actually very funny because they're like, first up, Overwatch. And the crowd's like, cool. One guy. And then, you know, they're mostly like, we have new ways to take your money.

It's like, awesome. And then they're like, now Diablo. And the crowd's like, yeah, yay. Right? And no one really gives a shit. And they're like, let's talk Warcraft. And then the first thing they bring out is Hearthstone. And everyone's like, nobody gave a shit.

It is almost silent. And that poor woman's up there just being like, we have got some amazing things for you. And everyone's like, cricket, cricket. It's awkward to watch. And then they're like, and next, a new Blizzard mobile game. And I was like, well, I don't play mobile, so I don't care. But it looks cute. It looks cute. I play it a little bit. It's play mobile, so I don't care. But it looks cute. It looks cute.

Yeah, I play it a little bit. It's actually pretty fun. I'll play it until they want my money. Right, exactly. The entire time I was like, well, how much is this going to nickel and dime you? But I don't play those games, so it's like whatever. And then they were like, now World of Warcraft Classic Cataclysm. And I was like, how does that make any sense?

Yeah, there's some people who wanted it. I tweeted. I was like, how does that make any sense? Yeah. There's some people who wanted it. I tweeted. I was like, I don't know. And some people like, I am looking forward to cataclysm. And I was like, I don't understand. All right. I mean, I guess if you weren't there to experience it because it was 2010.

So like, cool. Great. But it isn't classic. That was when it was no longer classic. Yeah, exactly. That makes no sense i was gonna say you could literally go to the cataclysm world right now if you want yeah like you don't need to it makes no sense to me but you know it's when the world literally

changed so it's no longer classic yeah but the other thing they're doing the uh like make your weird classes like i'll come back and play that with you any day that That looks amazing. That looks fun. It actually does look really cool. I like that they're doing that. They're like, yeah, you can be a tanking warlock. I was like, okay. Alright, that sounds weird. I would love to see that kind of stuff. Plus, it's only up to level 25, which is amazing for me. That is

very little commitment, so I'm in. I was like, okay, now that is good. I've gotten level 25 like six times already. This will be easy. Yeah, okay, now that is good. I've gotten level 25 like six times already. Like, this will be easy. Yeah, that's not hard at all. That's super easy. So that sounds incredibly fun.

It sounds like you could do some wacky stuff. That's what they should be doing with Classic. It's like switching up and getting weird. Cataclysm makes no sense. I think they're testing the waters with this, too, to see how much they can do with Classic, and they're going to keep adding on and doing different things. So I think that's pretty neat.

Because at a certain point, after Cataclysm, it's like, okay, you can't say that Pandaria is Classic. You just can't do it. I think Pandaria was pretty fun, but then... But it's not Classic. You're just playing past expansions. That's why even some people, they're always like, are they going to make WoW 2? And I'm like, they already made WoW 2.

We're playing it. It's retail. WoW 1 is classic WoW. WoW 2 is now. That's what they are. And if anything, the stuff they're doing with the new retail stuff, the three-story arc, that is very clearly them doing one,

hey, we have an idea. It's not going to be every expansion is an insane different thing. And two, we're going to wrap up all the things we never wrapped up.

Thank you. All right, cool. If I can stomach spending those hours playing the game, I will gladly come back just to see what the hell is up with that.

I actually, I enjoyed Dragonflight. I thought it was good that's i mean like sure i but i feel like our definitions of what we want from a game are two different things like i want i want a coherent story where it like is is told well and you're like i want a gameplay experience that's two different like two different things i will say the the the stories within the zones were really good in Dragonflight. The overarching one was just whatever. Yeah, and I feel like that's because they didn't... I mean, they had to dig themselves out a hole. Yeah, this was a step in the right direction

that they had to take, and now they're hopefully doing another one. You could tell Chris Metzen was just like, all right, guys, just let me take control. Give me this. I called it the Chris Metzen trilogy. He's like... It is is it feels like it he's literally just like let me give me three expansions minimum and they're just like all right yeah he's bringing right out the gate they're like remember that sword that we made jesse lose his mind over hey here's the thing it's about that

i'm like oh thank god i was like okay, this is a reason I might come back and play. But I will say the one thing that's very obvious about the entirety of what I watched, no one else on that stage even had a thimble full of the charisma that Chris Messon has. Oh, yeah. It is so jarring to see how much he tries to get the audience engaged versus everyone else that was on that stage with him. Oh, yeah. You can tell. It's like that is a huge problem for them.

Yeah. They just it's like they just send up developers and they're just like, OK, or like a community person or something. Because they're just like, you guys like Hearthstone? Oh, okay. It's always awkward too because they do like the like wow, that's what a really what a really cool image, right? Everyone cricket just reminded me

that E3 went to it the mobile minions guy. There's like and mobile minions and then like three people in business suits that definitely own shares of mobile minions were like, yes! Yes! Yep, that was... Man, I forgot. That was the Pele

EA event. That was Pele. That's the only thing I remember from that, other than that, except for the fact that they were like, yeah, um, we have donuts at your tables. And we were like, what? Yeah, I remember. We were like, what is this event? What are we doing here?

It was wild. That was a wild event. Pele, mobile minions, and donuts. Yeah. And then the one guy they brought out, they were like, yo, this is Hoop Master, or whatever his name was. Hoop God. Hoop God.

Hoop God. And he was like, you guys ready for NBA Live? And I was like, uh, I guess. And then the game, like, never came out. I was like, yeah, that sounds about right. Oh, my God. Yeah, I mean, that's, like, that's, I think, the biggest problem with, like, if you were to go watch the difference with Final Fantasy XIV FanFest versus BlizzCon, BlizzCon is still

a little too, like, we know someone with money is watching. Yeah. And we need their money, so we're trying to, like, really sell them on shit. And FanFest for Final Fantasy XIV is, like, very fan-forward. They have multiple concerts. They have multiple things they do that are just like weird fan things. But nothing crazy in the way of like, now we're going to talk about the financial situation. They don't do that.

Final Fantasy is more just like, it's not a spread thing. I feel like Blizzard, you have like so many different IPs now that they're like covering each one. Well, I don't know that they do though. Well, what do you, what games they mainly do like Final Fantasy? Like what did they do?

I know it literally is just Final Fantasy 14. I mean, you're correct in that they have to do more with BlizzCon. Yeah. But the thing that, that BlizzCon, the problem is that BlizzCon is like, you know,

it's, it's a lot of it. The WoW stuff was interesting I watched the Ian Hazacostas thing he did Where he was like, yo, here are the new Builds and things that we can do Like, that's interesting, right?

But most of it's just So here's some characters For Overwatch This one's probably going to be $50 Oh, by the way, you should pre-order the next WoW expansion. It's $90 if you want all the stuff. That's not fun.

No one wants to watch that. That's also been the thing for years. A couple games always get backburnered. Even in past BlizzCons, they'd be like, StarCraft? Well, StarCraft still. Actually, that one year they were like going crazy with starcraft in fact i think that's when tb was casting

because they were like going all out tb was casting i remember because he got down and he was like what are we doing for food and i was like i don't know uh that sounds correct and then i remember uh like that one year they did like Diablo Arena or some shit. Like they always have like something where that's just kind of like, and here's the thing that some people might like. Anyway, here's the main thing. They're like, whoa, the main thing. Right.

Like the year we beat all those people in IGN at Overwatch when they like. That was beautiful. Like the initial Overwatch launch. Like that was huge. Everyone was like, I want to play Overwatch. Like Overwatch., that was beautiful. Like the initial Overwatch launch, like that was huge. Everyone was like, I want to play Overwatch. And they were like, Overwatch. Like that was the biggest thing there.

Right? Well, I mean, because that was shocking. Like no one knew that was coming. That was pretty impressive. And I think we all were like, whoa. But yeah, for the most part, this is why I think that BlizzCon as a product is weird.

Yeah. Because most of the time, there's not much to show except a new WoW expansion. Yeah. And you know, they hyped us on Overwatch 2, but Overwatch 2 is a non-thing. It is Overwatch 1

taking more of your money. They literally didn't even do the PvE, which was like the main selling point they went with. Yeah. The whole idea of like, the trailer is insane. If you look at it now, the trailer was like all the stuff from overwatch 1 is finally coming together overwatch 2 is the start of something new it's like no no it isn't no it isn't don't do that i just thought it was funny too they were like and

the the big like finale thing was k-pop but it wasn't just k-pop it was overwatch 2 k-pop and i was like cool like listen i don't care if they do k-pop was the end thing but like they were just like slap overwatch 2 onto it like i just felt like they were like we really need to drive traffic to overwatch k-pop it like the league of legends thing yeah the weird overwatch uh porn community is gonna love it congrats on your skins they're gonna have a great time i mean but. I mean, they know their audience. Yeah, I mean, no one else. It has the same vibe as when DC tries to do the same thing Marvel did.

Oh, yeah. Where it was like, oh, Marvel made a bunch of movies, then made a team movie. So what if we just start with a team movie? That's like the exact same vibe where yeah they were like oh damn league has all these cool crossover things we should definitely do that well how i don't know slap some k-pop on it it's it's a weird thing but yeah i mean if people like it cool i don't get it but whatever yeah it's uh it did give me all the the blizzcon nostalgia though because i mean we went to a bunch of blizzcons but sure i think the thing i hate the most about modern

blizzcon is it's kind of like twitchcon where everybody's just like streaming or making videos or walking down the hall with their stick with their camera attached i just sure i just hate it it's almost like you're just always on camera at that point. What was crazy to me is all of the people who were present at the con live streaming their reactions to the opening ceremonies around the corner. They were there on computers watching the opening ceremony on the computer, but they were in the hall where it was. Oh, yeah.

I mean, I get it from a content creator standpoint. You want to like put your content out there. Yeah. But from a human being standpoint, that's insane. Yeah. Like that is, you're there, physically present. But you're like watching it on a screen? Like that is, you're there, physically present. But you're, like, watching it on a screen? Like, that is crazy to me.

Yeah, I don't get that. Apparently, they let, like, a lot of people in. That's what Dr. John was saying. He was like, I was in the hall, and they must have, like, oversold tickets or something. I don't know, but. I saw a lot of people saying it was, like, there's a whole thread about it that I saw

that people were very upset with how the con was run and how a lot of it was not handled well. And hey, spoiler, the people who bought the $700 Mega Pass, turns out not worth the price. Who would have guessed? Who would have guessed? Yeah.

I guess they had like a special room they could go watch the different panels in But it was like a really shitty room And I was like that sounds correct And they I guess got food But the food was you know in the media room That like kind of mediocre food But you know you're pressed

So you're like just happy to eat something It was that food And it's like free food essentially Yeah when you're pressed It's free food and it's like free food essentially yeah when you're pressed it's free food and it's like barely warm enchiladas and like uh some kind of pasta that maybe was made a day ago yeah and if you paid 700 i can understand why you'd be mad yeah no i i could understand too yeah there was no priority lines apparently i guess they's supposed to be lines where you could get in faster,

but they just funneled you all to the same lines. I would be like – I'd be pissed too. If I spent an additional $500 for a ticket and that's what – like if you just looked at what it offered you, there's no way that was worth it ever. No. Yeah, definitely not. $700 for – it was already $299 to go.

There's no human way. Even if I was still hard in the fan world of Blizzard, if I wasn't getting a media pass, I wouldn't go. Yeah. That's so much money. Plus you're meeting a hotel. Plus you're traveling. That is someone's big vacation.

If it isn't great, there's just like, there's no way. You could have spent that money on the flight to go first class or something instead. Now a better time. Yeah. You really would have. Yeah. Yeah. It's, I don't know.

That's why I enjoyed going, but I was like, you know what? I'm glad I watched it home. Yes. Oh, absolutely. I got to what? I'm glad I watched it home. Yes. Oh, absolutely. I got to check out and then come back to it later. I was like, all right, I watched a little bit. I'll come back later. Yeah.

I have no. And again, I think for the most part, when we were there, even all those different years, half the time we weren't really there. Yeah. No. We'd go get dinner. We'd go get drinks. We'd walk around or we like be

outside or hiding out somewhere yeah like we never actually just like i saw every panel it was great like it never happened no the majority of reasons people go to cons especially blizzcon would be to be around their friends that they don't normally get to see uh and then they go to disneyland afterward those are the two main reasons. Pretty much, yeah. Yeah, I was laughing because someone sent me a clip of, who was it? I think it was Asmongold. And he was like, the last BlizzCon I went to was in 2018. And I went there because a hot chick was trying to find me. And I was trying to hook up.

And I was like, yeah, that sounds like BlizzCon. That does sound like BlizzCon. That sounds correct. Yeah. Yeah. It sure does. Sounds fun. Well, you know does. Sounds fun. Well, you know what else is fun?

Not you. It was Krendor and the chop's something. He hung up. His chapter cop, it's done. Oh, right, right, right.

Not you. It was Crandor and the chapter cop. Right, right, right. Not ground Crandor. Yeah, ground Crandor. I'm grounded. Well, maybe weather Crandor will have some information. Let's go to weather.

Weather. Hey, it's me, weather Crandor. Hi, weather Crandor. Hey, we have a weather request for someone's hometown, Weather Crendor. Hi, Weather Crendor. Hey. We have a weather request for someone's hometown of Pella, Iowa. Don't know what you will find, but have at it. All right. Pella, Iowa.

Currently, it is 57 degrees Fahrenheit. Feels like 54 degrees Fahrenheit. Humidity, 57%. Pressure, 29.83 inches. Visibility 10 miles. 647 AM sunrise. 502 PM sunset. Winds 13 miles an hour. 42 on the dew point. UV index 0. And a moon phase of last quarter. You don't get too many last quarters. Checking on that 10 day.. Tomorrow, we got 69.

Nice. Partly cloudy. Tuesday, 64. Partly cloudy. Wednesday, 65. Mostly cloudy. And then you get some 54. Mostly sunny.

54, 53, 56, 58, 58, 60. So it's mainly mostly sunny or cloudy and about 58 degrees. So it's pretty good. I like that. That's some of my favorite weather. I like a little rain mixed in there, but what are you going to do? Yeah. Yeah. You've mentioned this before many times, that you have a set weather you love.

And it's always rainy, but a little warm. Yeah, a little warm. And, yeah, I feel like, I think most people can agree that's a nice weather. Although it feels like that's a weather you get sick if it was too much. You know what I mean? No, that's the weather that your grandma thinks you get sick in. I don't know if you're like I feel like people in the like Southeast Asia would have thoughts on this because they get like storm season. Yeah, where it's like a storm season or a long period where it's like, you know, 60 degrees, but it's dropping rain for three weeks.

I feel like they would have thoughts. Well, it doesn't actually make you sick. It's that. I mean, it could. It doesn't. It doesn't. Viruses make you sick. Right.

But you could get a virus from the dampness. No. You get a virus because it's raining and everybody goes inside so they're coughing at each other and they're not going outside how dare how dare you use science on this program dr john uh we're gonna get a message from dr john he's gonna agree with you and i'm not gonna be i'm not gonna be happy with that i don't want i don't want to be told I'm so vehemently wrong. I mean, yeah, listen, I love my favorite thing is going to the gym and you get out and it's like 55 with that light mist. And I'm like, oh, man, that's some good stuff.

That's because you're like a sweaty boy and it like cools you down. Yeah, exactly. I love it. You said that was such. Yeah, dude. exactly i love it you said that was such yeah dude last last year i'd always go to the gym like i'd park and then i'd just like take my hoodie off and just run in and like a short sleeve uh like shirt and then the person at the front of the thing would always be like dude it's like zero outside you're just wearing that and i was like well i just ran in he's like you're fucking crazy you are you are a midwestern boy though you got that in you like i wear jeans or i wear shorts sometimes when it's cold outside oh yeah there's plenty of those i don't do that because that's my

prime sweatpants weather so that's i love me some sweatpants but yeah sweatpants and a short sleeve shirt though now that's yeah what is? How often do you wear shorts? I wear shorts all the time until it hits about current temperatures that we get. Interesting. Okay. Yeah. Maybe like, it depends. Once it's like around 65 to 70 degrees, that's when I slowly start going to the old sweatpant weather.

Or I have like some track pants, you know? Yeah, that's a good track pant weather time yeah uh i don't track pants always stick to me i gotta i got a track pant problem you're getting uh you're getting bad track pants then well no no crap i'm not like walking around in adidas track pants like a Russian mafia member. I have like crappy ones that I've had for like 15 years. Yeah, I get those Eastern European mob member sweatpants or track. Yeah, I got to get them. I got to get that good stuff. Yeah, you got to get the good stuff.

Also, I went to Pella, Iowa, and I found Pizza Ranch, and it is literally a ranch, but they have pizza. And I think it's like a Chuck E. Cheese, but it's like a grown-up Chuck E. Cheese. I don't even know. Here, look at this. Hold on. I am. All right. First off, hilarious.

Yeah. It looks like a ranch, but in like the most comical mid like America small town way. Yeah. They got some very cheap spaghetti and breadsticks. You get the fun zone. When you say cheap spaghetti, you like, I cannot stress this enough to everyone at home.

An Italian man just died. Look at this image. Yeah. He's like spiral noodles that appear half cooked with i barely ragu on top of it yeah like that that pasta taste it tastes like water i want to say like very very light dough water yeah that is you know what's even crazier There's like a fun zone With a reward center I'll be honest it doesn't look like anyone's been in there

For years Yeah it's It's like a fifth of a Chuck E. Cheese It's sort of like Someone took a CC's pizza And a Old country buffet crammed them together And then threw like The worst toys you would ever spend tickets on into one.

I'm looking at it right now. Most of it's like those little finger puppet things, those plastic finger puppets, or weird stuffed animals that are barely stuffed. You can get Fortnite Mon monopoly for i think the highest amount of tickets yeah or just those if you ever in vegas and you buy way too much booze and they give you one of those long booze containers yeah you can buy one of those but yeah those prizes suck yeah those prizes suck it also it almost the the arcade kind of

looks like someone's basement. Like they just made their basement into an arcade. Yeah, oh, this is, I mean, this is a place, alright. This is a place. Well, that's Pizza Ranch. I'm tripping out. The buffet is crazy to me. So it's multiple pizzas, but then the buffet itself is just

a big bunch of fried chicken, corn, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy. Hold on, I need another angle on this. Yeah. I think those are supposed to be French fries. And then there's pasta,

soft serve, and breadsticks. Yep. I mean, it's Iowa. I don't know what I expect. This is Iowa. What else am I supposed to say? We also got Jarzma Bakery. Last thing for Pizza Ranch,

there's one photo. I don't know if you saw this. This makes me laugh so hard. It is what appears to be three different types of pasta and or sauce covered in so much of that like particulate cheese. That is, that's like

half a container's worth. That is so much cheese put on there. It looks like powdered sugar. That is That's like half a container's worth That's insane That is so much cheese put on there That is hilarious Yeah it's like the Grated parmesan but not It's like the fake parmesan that you would get in the can When you were a kid

Yeah it is That's crazy that's so much cheese That is too much cheese And then oh my You know what I'm starting to think a lot of the people that patronize this place are old. Because one of these dishes is literally a piece of pizza with a piece of chicken on top of it. And then next to that is a bunch of canned peaches and cottage cheese. Oh, God, yeah.

Pizza next to canned peaches and cottage cheese is not appetizing at all. That looks terrible. Dude, that's so gross. Andaches and cottage cheese is not appetizing at all that looks terrible so gross and not even like not even cottage cheese just like pizza pizza range cottage cheese you know it's even worse than normal cottage yeah dude that is an unpleasant thing oh god i mean there's a lot of photos of kids seeming to enjoy themselves so i guess that's good but holy crap no thank you yeah that's a hard but holy crap. No, thank you. Yeah. That's a hard one. Hey, but hey, you can take home pizza and make it at home. So that's a thing.

That's good. Oh, man. Oh, hey. Hey. Yeah. I can't believe I'm still talking about Pizza Ranch. When you go there, they have a giant poster. And this poster says, our mission, to give every guest a legendary experience.

So already I feel like we're failing. But two, our vision. Now, if you're a pizza restaurant, what do you think your vision would be? The purpose why they exist. To give people the best pizza and or entertainment they can get good call if you're going to a pizza place I feel like the best pizza would be

the vision theirs is to glorify God by positively impacting the world yeah that's I don't give a damn what you believe make good pizza. What the hell do I care about that? God would probably eat it and be like, this shit sucks.

I can't believe their mission statement is like, glorify God. Like, make good pizza. You can glorify God in your time off. Nah, dude. Pizza Ranch has to be half church. Without a doubt. I mean, it kind of looks be half church. Without a doubt. It kind of looks like half church. That is bad.

That's rough. Here you go. The Funk Lounge. You gotta check out the Funk Lounge. The Funk Lounge also has a sign that says to glorify God and be real upset. Real upset with Middle America. This is your classic Middle America sad says to glorify God and be real upset. Real upset with middle America. This is your classic

middle America sad tavern. Yeah, the funk lounge, I think I would fit in just fine, but I know a lot of friends would not be allowed to enter. The funk lounge looks like there's only a certain level

of funk they're going to allow in there. Not too much funk. Not too much funk. Not too much funk. Not too much funk. You don't want... Not too much funk. Yeah, not too much funk at the Funk Lounge. Also, the Funk Lounge looks like behind it is either a place where the Funk Lounge owner lives or a place that they rent out to people who are staying the night.

I can't tell. Yes, I see that. It's a look. The Funk Lounge. What was the other place you had? Oh, yeah. There you go. The Jarma Bakery.

Okay. This is, I would actually enjoy this. Not because it looks like it's awesome, professionally made bakery products. It definitely doesn't have the vibe of when we look at a small Norwegian town and the pastries look incredible. This looks like everything when I was a kid. Yeah, it's got the, like, I remember eating those, like, Ninja Turtle sugar cookies when I was a kid. Yeah, it was just a sugar cookie with way too much icing on it.

That looks, I would eat that up immediately. Yeah, and they got pretty good cookie designers, too. They got, like, a bird. They got a frog. They got Ninja Turtle. They got pumpkins and cats. They got a whole. They got Ninja Turtle. They got pumpkins and cats. They got a whole bunch. Oh yeah, like the witches. They have one that's

clearly like for football. They have different what appears to be Sesame Street characters. They have Spider-Man. The Spider-Man one, no joke, that one looks like it has a ton of icing. I'd just gobble that up. Yeah, this place looks great. Plus the prices aren't too crazy.

Yeah. Like a big-ass cookie, you can get a big football cookie for $1.79. Yeah. A full pound cake's $3.25. Wow, yeah, that's actually fantastic. That's a super deal, yeah. And these cookies are the big cookies that are like four cookies in one, $3.50. Wow, yeah.

That's not, I mean, that's not, like, these are good prices. This is actually, and then if you look at their other pastries and things they have, it looks like the kind of thing you could get pretty much at any bakery. But, you know, it's, you can get, it's $2.75 for a long, like, mega donut. Yeah. Like, you know, that's, living in LA has made me appreciate the rest of the country's prices. Yeah, they got a 4.8 out of 5.

They're the highest rated place I've found yet. I mean, I get it. From looking at this, based on everything else we've seen, of all the places we've looked at, that's the place I would actually go. Oh, yeah. 100%. That is... Yeah, I mean, most of this is like

barely... There's a lot of places that's like Gritter's Electric Company and D&D Pump and manufacturing things and... Interesting. It's interesting. Hold on. Yeah? I just found something.

So, I found a place called Smash Park. Okay. There it is. And there is a part of Smash Park that is Paddle Club 21+. And I want to know

what goes on in the Paddle Club. Paddle Club 21+. I don't know what is happening at Paddle Club. Whoa. Alcohol. Lots of... So Smash Park looks like... I actually love I don't know what is happening at Paddle Club. Well, alcohol. Lots of... So Smash Park looks like... I actually love this.

I think this is actually probably the coolest place to be in the city. Yeah, it probably is. It is a place where adults can go, and there's a lot of different restaurants, and a lot of booze options, but also places for kids to hang out. It looks like they're like, okay, this place slaps. This place, they have different styles of food.

You can get like crazy nachos that actually look like almost homemade chips. You can get actual smash burgers. You can get some sort of dumpling ass looking thing oh yes all right like this this place actually seems like it's from the last 10 years it actually does yeah this is definitely a modern thing this was not yeah this is not the pizza looks fun it looks like it isn't just like a crappy pizza looks like it has like onions and different flavorings added to it. Yeah, I mean, okay. Yeah, this place checks out. Yeah.

So yeah, that's the weather. That is the weather. All right. Sorry, Iowa. We had to, Pella. Let's go to sports. Sports. Oh boy. Sports. So let's go to sports sports oh boy sports

I don't even know how that man gets through his day. Oh, my God. Oh, wow, he's got a bunch of videos of just people being like, I'm with the tallest man. Yo, the tallest man here. I mean, I would also i would also want a photo with that guy you kidding me oh yeah although it does look like he has to have like a cane or like a walking canes because i think it does mess him up so that's kind of

shitty yeah how do you get i mean i guess genetics is about to be like, how does one get that tall? But all right. Apparently, according to this, it says it's a pituitary gland issue. So that's so not like a good tall. Like he doesn't want to be that tall. Right. Right. Right. Right.

Right. Yeah. Okay. Oh, yeah. Yes. He's crutches to walk. But apparently, according to this random YouTube title, he has a challenger for world record as of january of this year what you mean by that i don't know i'd have to watch the video to find out

all right we don't have time for that yeah we don't got time for that uh but there you go that's the world's tallest man amazing all right what is our big news story of the day big news story of the day day day day day uh this news story is goldie hawn oscar winner says et touched her and it felt like a finger of god here's the thing i almost feel like we've done this but it may be because we talked about this on chluminati i don't remember it might be because i don't remember doing this uh some people might might find an encounter with an extraterrestrial to be alienating, but not actor Goldie Hawn. In fact, she says it felt like she was being touched by a finger of God.

Hawn recently described having an alien encounter on the Time to Walk program on Apple Fitness Plus and said it happened. Okay, yes, okay. First off, hilariously, Time to walk is a thing on apple fitness where it's like a different person every time talking to you about some random crap while you do a walk oh which i think is an insane idea for a program but actually kind of cool yeah basically it's a podcast but it's like one-offs yeah um and as as we listen to this story that Crandor tells us, remember the time period this took place in. Goldie Hawn was notorious for loving cocaine.

So just going to let that sink in. Please continue. All right. There's no way that impacted anything. Nope. Not at all. And it said happened when she was around 20, somewhere in California in a desert at a time

where there had been a lot of ufo sightings the oscar-winning actor said she'd been dancing outside when she decided to take a nap in a fellow dancer's car this already that's what i'm saying dude just put it. You know, we just went to the desert and started dancing just for no reason. Just a couple of sober young people just dancing in the desert, having a great time. And the Oscar winning actor said she'd been dancing outside. She decided to take a nap, but didn't get much sleep thanks to a high pitched sound in her ear. Quote, it was this high, high frequency, she explained, and I looked out the window and I saw these two or three triangular-shaped heads.

Hahn said the aliens she met were silver in color and had a slash for a mouth and a tiny little nose and no ears. Years later, Hahn said she met an astrophysicist from the University of Champaign, Illinois, who studied alien encounters and triggered more detailed memories about the experience. Is this Mathis? Uh, it was kind of like regression therapy or something. I'm like almost in a trance and suddenly I remembered something. They touched my face.

Okay. something they touched my face okay haun said the touch felt like the finger of god because i guess she knows what that feels like as well was the most just like it was the most benevolent loving feeling this was powerful it was filled with light the actor said the creatures pointed at her in her car as if she were a subject i could not move i was paralyzed i didn't know if it was real or not real she said that wasn't han's only paranormal experience she said i like how she says i don't know if it was real or not real like it could just be not real as well like right she doesn't know uh she recounted a dream she had in london of seeing six lights coming up on some little mountains

up across the valley. Later, she drove to a place that resembled the valley in her dream, where she ran into a mysterious heart-shaped crop circle. Han said she didn't know if that crop circle sighting was a sign, but it didn't really matter. I don't want to know everything, she said. We cut ourselves off from a lot of things if we're continuing to deny that we have no proof over. There's a lot of things in the world that we can't see but we can't stop believing she added we can never ever lose our wonders it's just no fun it's really an important aspect of being an adventure where nothing is impossible you You can watch her interview on Instagram. No thanks.

Here's the thing. You can be up for wonder and you can be up for all of that. But, you know, I just feel like in this case, based on what was going on in her life at the time, where she was like, I was dancing out in the middle of the desert. And I don't ask why. Don't ask why I was doing that. I was dancing, and I got really tired.

So I went to someone's car. Don't ask. And then aliens. Like, okay. All right. But I feel like there's a lot leading up to that. There's definitely a lot leading up to that. Like, yeah.

Like, breaking it down. So first off, why do you dance in a desert? The only people I know that dance in a desert are like edm drugs edm festival drug stuff yep yep yep so right away that's like all right drugs are probably gonna make you see stuff that you don't know if it's real or not which she admits that it's not could she doesn't know real she doesn't know. If this story was Golihan at a diner three in the afternoon

eating a turkey sandwich and then she saw an alien, I'd be like, oh my god, alright. Now this I kind of could believe. I was dancing in the desert. I was in my 20s and I was high as a kite. Alright, maybe not. She's like, just don't stop believing in wonders.

Okay. Look, drugs's like, just don't stop believing in wonders. Like, okay. Like, look, drugs do make you do all sorts of crazy stuff. So, like, don't, you know, enjoy. Yeah, that's, she was definitely on drugs. That's really it. Yeah, that's the lesson here is, like, drugs made a woman see aliens, and you can see aliens, too, if you do enough you do enough drugs kids yeah maybe that's the thing maybe the reason why a lot of us don't see aliens is because you got to be really high and the aliens know and that's why they approach you because they're like no one's gonna believe this person yeah no like now let's say somebody was at the pizza ranch

if aliens showed up at the pizza ranch. If aliens showed up at the pizza ranch, I'd be like, get out of here, guys. Go. You got to get out of the pizza. This is not a representative of our Earth. I'll take you anywhere else. Let's go. They walk in. They're just like, oh, my God, how much cheese is in the pasta?

I told you, don't look. Don't look. What's crazy is I went to another restaurant because I was trying to find other restaurants that were even remotely good looking. And one of them was like a diner. And the first image was like a

piece of turkey and mashed potatoes covered, completely covered in gravy. But then someone took that gravy and covered it with so much salt and pepper that it just looked like it was solid on top of it. And that was the first image. I was like, no, no, no, thank you. Like they literally coated it like they were going to stick it in the wood shed for the winter. Like, we got to really save that.

Cover it in salt. We're sailing across the ocean. We've got to preserve. The harsh winter climes of Iowa. It's like you're trying to eat it. What are you doing? And that's your big news story of the day. All right. Well, that's it for us thanks so much for listening
