Dragon's Dogma 2, the highly anticipated successor to the cult classic Dragon's Dogma,
is out now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S and X, and Steam.
Dragon's Dogma 2 is a third-person action RPG boasting a richly detailed and deeply
explorable fantasy world created using Capcom's RE Engine's immersive physics,
groundbreaking character AI systems, and cutting-edge graphics.
Dive into the vast and dynamic world where The Arisen is called upon to fulfill a forgotten
destiny across the nations of Vermont, the Kingdom of Humanity, and Batal, the nation
of Beastrin.
Dragon's Dogma 2 revolves entirely around choice.
Your choice, that is.
From the sword and shield-wielding fighter to fighter to the illusion conjuring trickster, there are over 10 unique vocations to choose from that all require experience to unlock new skills.
And character customization is out of this world, literally. Oh, and did I mention the combat is
really in-depth? It isn't just hacking at a giant's ankle for half an hour while your dodge
roll attacks. You can engage enemies from a distance, climb up large foes, stab them in their weak points,
use the terrain and trick, trip,
or throw foes off high cliffs or raging waters.

Why did Gavin join and he's muted?
Who cares?
Great.
You said things are better.
Hello.
Hello and welcome to another episode of the F*** Face Podcast.
My name is Jeff Ramsey and with me as always, Gavin Free and Andrew Panton.
Uh, hello boys.
Hello.
Gavin is shy, he's still muted.
I don't know what's going on. Well this is perfect because Gavin and I were supposed to have a friend-tervention, a friend-intervention.
Uh, we teased it up last one, so we'll just have it right now.
I'll kick it off. Gavin, what the fuck?
Your response.
He left. He left the call.
He left. Yeah, he's gone.
He's not here anymore. I clearly
won that argument.
Congratulations, man.
He's back and muted.
Is Gavin late
at this point? I would say he's late yeah i wonder what
his argument is that he's not here well let's let's get hold on a second let's say gavin we
feel like you're being deficient in your duties of of podcast participant and host as well as a
friend would you care to respond i think that's pretty clear that's pretty old i think at this
point he's late yeah no he No, he's definitely late.
Yeah.
He just he doesn't care.
Oh, he just posted a photo of his computer.
I had that.
Your Discord installation is corrupt.
Wow.
Well, imagine if you would have had some pleasantries and noticed that before we started.
So we wouldn't launch into this.
Hey, before Gavin gets here, do you want to do you want to have a little bit of a merch meeting
um i could actually it'd be great to have your opinion on something yeah i i i uh i'll say i
missed the the most recent merch meeting uh i apologize to everybody who i've blown off or
missed in the last week my life has been a fucking nightmare yeah you're pretty yeah you're yeah
you're in a fuck situation. Don't worry about it.
Here's what we said with Tony.
We said, Tony, merch meeting.
Want a fridge magnet?
A magnet of Jeff's fridge that you can put on the fridge.
And he said, okay, do you want it to open?
And we said, what?
Excuse me?
And Tony just sent us this.
What the fuck?
We can have magnets that open?
Yeah, I guess that's the thing.
We said, if that can happen, we should have one Cosmic Crisp apple in it.
Oh, that's beautiful.
Dude, we have to make this.
We have to make this.
Yeah, that was such a dumb idea,
but man, leave it to Tony to make a bad idea good.
Yep.
That's phenomenal.
That deserves to be made.
Absolutely.
I'm letting them know right now
this rules let's do it so let's find out let's find out how many we can how many we have to make
and then we'll just communicate that number to the audience immediately yep hey what's up
guess who's using the browser oh your browser boy oh there's two of us now. Well, my actual discord just said it is corrupt.
What's can we not use shitty ass dog shit held as discord?
What do you mean?
If you just show up five minutes early, this isn't a problem.
Works great for me.
I'm using it right now.
What do you what do you want to use instead?
Do you care?
Like, do you want me to find something else?
I can find something else.
No, don't listen to him.
Cool thing about discord is it's accessible via multiple platforms.
You want to get it on the browser?
You can get it on the browser.
If you want to use the app, use the app.
I'm sorry.
Was your suggestion just Skype?
I don't know.
Gavin, you can't trust Gavin with Skype.
Ever since he did that commercial with his grandfather when he was a little boy,
he's been shilling that company.
Did they pay you in stock? Is that what happened?
Skype really dropped the ball. I don't know how.
I think you got Skype credit.
Do you guys know what I'm talking about? Have you ever seen that old commercial?
No, I have no idea what you're talking about.
Gavin and his grandfather, how old were you,
Gav? 17, 16.
This kid, in his charmed
life, when Gavin was 16 or 17,
he somehow became a part of a national campaign
for commercials for Skype.
What?
And there is a television commercial
of Gavin and his grandfather
having Skype conversations together.
It was all over TV in England.
That's incredible.
I had a line in it.
What was your line?
I'll do it.
Are you ready?
Okay.
Do you need me to be grandpa?
Do grandpa have lines? Yeah, you be be you be grandpa you say hi Gavin okay hmm
hi Gabby are you gonna do it in Italian accent
I was trying to do Mario.
Okay, and then I'll do my bit.
Hi.
That's it?
That's your line?
Why did I have six lines?
Did Nick just find it?
Yay, there it is.
It's a minute and a half long.
This is too long for Skype.
Yeah, it's too long.
Anyway.
Yeah, that's been out there for ages.
Anyway, you guys can watch it after the podcast.
That's funny.
I had no idea.
Look at that little cutie.
I got that because I was on the Skype forums.
I think I was trying to fix my granddad's Skype or something.
And then there was a thread that said, tell us how you use Skype. And I was like, I use it to talk to my granddad.
And they were like, that's great.
Can we make a commercial about that?
I was like, okay.
Perfect.
What was the best conversation you had with your granddad over Skype?
How long were they on average, would you say?
Pretty long.
In chat, maybe half an hour ago.
Now we just use this other thing called FaceTime.
I thought you were going to say Discord.
I was going to ask if your grandpa has Discord Nitro.
He has Nitro.
Because we can use some boosts.
We need nine more, apparently.
You guys may not know this, but Gavin is exceptionally
close to his grandfather. They are like best
buddies. I love him. He used to send me these videos
like way, way, way, way, way before
our Achievement Hunter
of him getting his granddad to play games
like Assassin's Creed and watching him
like run around and get
funny. You remember that? You remember those little gameplay
videos you would send me of you and your grandpa playing games?
Yeah.
I wanted him to make Achievement Hunter videos.
That would have been great.
So that's it, Jeff?
That's your friend-ervention?
I feel like... Oh, yeah.
So, Gab, I guess we're good now.
I missed it?
Damn.
I thought we had a nice chat the other night.
I gave you plenty of opportunity to respond, and you didn't respond to anything I said,
so I consider the beef squashed.
You were like, our friendship's weird and awkward, and then we had a conversation and uh you somehow fixed it in one
go yeah i did here's here's what it turns out uh i was trying to like this when i as soon as i
joined man i am tongue-tied as soon as i joined look man i i've i've had one night of sleep in my bed in the last like eight days um i'm running on
empty right now but uh i uh as soon as i joined eric was like you got to lead with the friend
intervention and i forgot we ended with that last time what happened was the second the podcast
ended gavin came over and he goes do we need to have an intervention and i was like i think things
are weird between us don't you think these are weird between us and he was like not really and
i was like oh okay i guess it's just me.
Then you want to hang out?
And he's like, always.
And then it's been fine.
Yeah, well, you were like, I feel like things are awkward with every person.
I was like, oh, am I making it awkward?
And you were like, I think I am.
But I was like, OK, and it was fine.
That was it.
And we had to have that one not even really awkward conversation.
And then we talked for two hours in Gavin's living room.
We've been great since. I'm glad that that's how it played out yeah I felt awkward after you
said it was and I was like oh I guess maybe it is and I was like is it me and you were like oh
maybe I think it's me and then it after like two minutes it felt fine oh shit I'm tongue-tied too
Jesus I'm so glad that the two of you are back but I do wish it happened on the show because it
would have been so much more awkward whatever the online exchange was between the two of you of trying to figure this out.
No, we just had a really nice conversation.
And then we went out to dinner where we screamed at each other.
It was great.
Oh, I forgot.
We went out to dinner.
That's fantastic.
What did you guys have?
What did you have, Gav?
You had pizza.
I had a big pizza.
Yeah, I had a pizza that was a salad.
It was one of those restaurants where it served about half a foot above the table big pizza, yeah. I had a pizza that was... I had a salad. It was one of those restaurants
where it served about half a foot above the table.
Oh, wow.
I think it's a little special.
That's fancy.
Don't know why it couldn't have been on the table
in front of me like a plate, but...
Did you bring your own Branston
for them to put on it at the restaurant?
It was so loud in this restaurant
that Emily and Meg were across from Gavin and I about
I would say I don't know about you Gavin but I would say like
maybe 30% of the way through
dinner I gave up trying to talk to them at all
it was just I couldn't hear anything
they said and I couldn't yell loud
enough and I just talked to you for the maybe that's why I had
such a good time
it's true I kept having this message
come off on my watch I'll post it talk
amongst yourselves.
What do you think the message is going to say, Andrew? Any guesses?
I don't know. Do you think it'll be related to Discord?
Do you think it will be
possibly... Too loud. Eric thinks
it'll be too loud. Too loud.
This isn't from in the moment, but I took a screenshot of it.
This is a fucking paragraph.
This isn't a... Around one hour and
45 minutes a day at this level
can cause temporary hearing loss.
The weekly limit at this level is around 12 hours and 30 minutes.
I didn't know they did that.
It was that loud.
It was kind of crazy,
because you're used to the normal restaurant atmosphere,
but I can't hear what someone one foot away from me is saying.
I think what it was,
I think what happened was,
this was last Friday night, and
I think it was the first night everybody
came out from hibernation
and was like, I want to reclaim my life
and have a night out on the town. And I just felt
like everybody in Austin was loud
and boisterous and defiant all
at once. It was fucking annoying.
So was it people loud or was it music loud? Everything. defiant all at once it was fucking annoying so is it people loud or
was it music loud everything wow okay but it was mostly people the last time we recorded we should
probably say in the last episode if some of the audio sounded weird that's uh my fault i set up
jeff at meg's desk but i didn't check what was being recorded and it turns out meg has for her
streaming setup she has everything on discord also is recorded to the file so anytime jeff was talking and
someone else is talking we it's it's just i guess a shit show of the audio i can't believe uh an
actual usable episode came out of that but if sometimes jeff sounds like he's on discord it's
probably because that's the feed we're using um and at that point jeff you had no power for i think two days right yeah yeah how long did it go on uh
so i moved home yesterday
oh man uh what happened was uh and i have an interesting story about how i got my power back
actually uh i will say it was uh it was through perseverance on my part and desperation.
So that was on what?
Like Thursday, I guess.
I was that day I moved into a hotel, right?
Like I came over to your house Wednesday night to shower.
I brought the family over like refugees and we showered.
And then the next day, Emily was like, I can't do this.
I just can't do it anymore.
She's got to like get up and go stand on her feet 12 hours a day at a beauty salon. And she has to, you know, look fabulous. And it's fucking impossible in a house with no heat or electricity. And so I was like, got it. We'll we'll get a hotel. Start looking around. There are fucking no hotels anywhere in town at this point, obviously. And so I start to get a little desperate. Millie's mom still has power. So Millie went to stay with her mom for a couple days. And then luckily, I was able to get a hotel room.
And so I was able to find one hotel room.
And then while I was checking in, four people just walked in off the street and were like,
got any rooms?
And they were like, no.
And they were like, fuck.
So I felt pretty fortunate.
So then we spent two nights in a hotel there.
But that's very expensive.
That's a couple hundred bucks a night was all all i could find and that wasn't sustainable so i decided uh on saturday there's
still no electric company in sight at this point the city is sending out vague updates like we
restored the power to 50 000 people today and then that's all you hear and you're like what about
what about me and they're like we can't give you any update at this time, but we're working on it,
you know?
And so Saturday,
I was missing Millie
too much anyway,
so we Airbnb'd a place
in Mueller,
which is over where RT is
because they bury
their power lines there,
so you don't have to worry
about the power going out,
and moved into a house
and rented it until Monday
and thought,
okay,
surely by Monday
we'll have power.
Still nothing come Monday.
Asked if we could extend, stayed till Tuesday.
They wouldn't let us stay any further than that.
I guess they'd already had it booked.
And so Tuesday we were sweating.
I rented another Airbnb for Wednesday and Thursday
because Friday and Saturday,
we're gonna go stay out of town anyway for Emily's birthday.
So then I get up Wednesday morning
before I go to check into the...
No, Tuesday morning,
right after I book the other hotel rooms.
And what I had been doing throughout the day at this point
is I would drive over,
because I live across town from RT and from that Airbnb,
I would drive across town and sit in my driveway
for four or five hours at a time,
just to see if somebody would show up and to be there when somebody showed up, right?
And so Tuesday morning, I go and I drive into the driveway and I'm sitting in the driveway.
And well, as I go to pull up, I see 12 trucks on my street. I counted. It was fabulous.
There were tree trimming trucks, like disaster relief trucks, Asplund. There were like city of Austin trucks with cranes
and cherry pickers. And I was like, it looked like they rolled out a fleet. It looked like
the military showed up to fix my street. And I was like, fuck yeah. And so I went,
it was so packed. I actually, I couldn't park on my street. I had to park a street down and
then walk home. And as I walked around kind of this, the backside of my house, I, there was a bunch of dudes with chainsaws on this little
area woods right outside my property. And I walked up to them. I'm like, thanks so much guys. Really
appreciate it. And they're like looking at the power line stuff and they're like, yeah, no worries,
man. And I was like, look, so my gates open, it's unlocked. It's right there. You guys can go right
in. And they're like, okay, cool. And then I went and I went into the house, uh, and I was just like
hanging out, waiting to see what the power turned on. And I waited
for like three hours and they were still going
strong and I had to run some errands.
So I ran and I ran some errands and I
came home and when I came home, I'd been gone like
30 minutes. All of the cars
were gone.
The 12
vehicles were all gone.
And as I'm driving up my
road, I look over to the right, and
my side of the street, which was all out of power,
everybody's got porch lights on.
And I'm like, oh shit, we got our power back.
My house does not have a porch light on.
Oh no.
No. And then right
past my house, there's like two
trucks. I just couldn't see them from the road.
There's like two trucks left, and they're just
facing each other, talking through the windows. City of Austin trucks. And just couldn't see him from the road. There's like two trucks left and they're just like facing each other like talking through the windows
city of Austin trucks and I'm like
but it's raining. It's sprinkling and I'm like
you know what? I bet everybody else moved
on to another gig. They're just left to do my
house. It started raining. They probably
can't be fucking with the electricity and the
rain. I don't know why I thought that. I'm sure
they probably can but I'm like so I'll just
I'll just wait for the rain to stop and then I'll go out and
check on them and I go inside the house and i sit in front of my window and i'm just
looking out the window and two minutes after i do that one of the cars drives by and i go oh shit
and now i'm down i'm from like 12 trucks down to one in the span of like 40 minutes and everybody
in my street has internet or has uh as electricity but me and I'm like, Oh fuck. No, I'm like,
I gotta go.
I'm going to go like beg this guy.
So I get up out of my,
out of the chair.
And I,
as I'm opening the front door,
that guy's driving away.
And I just,
I didn't even think I just panic ran,
booked it like Forrest Gump straight at the truck as he's driving down the
street.
And I'm like,
wait,
wait,
stop. And the guy like, wait! Wait! Stop!
And the guy looks back like
I'm a fucking lunatic and he pulls over in the middle
of the street and he's like, what's up, man?
He's like Duck Dynasty, like a dude with a big
old beard and like Ray-Bans
on. And he was
like, what's up, man? And I was like,
are you leaving? And he's like,
yeah, we gotta go to the next gig. And I'm like,
I still don't have power. It looks like everybody else has power power but me i don't know if you guys just miss me or what
but if you guys leave i'm fucked could you just it's been a week man could you just what are you
gonna come back and the guy looks at me and he's like he just takes me in for a second and he goes
hold on a second and he pulls over and he gets out of his truck and he goes uh
show me what you got and i walk him down the street, back to my house, around my backyard.
Sounds like my granddad.
Yeah.
And he goes, and I take him to my backyard and I show him the tree that's fallen and
the electric wires are like spaghetti on the ground.
And he goes, tree trimmers didn't come back here and do anything with this?
And I was like, no, I said hi to him.
I pointed at it and he goes, ugh.
And he looked at it for a while.
And it's raining the whole time, by the way.
And he looked at it for a little while longer and he goes uh he was just real quiet and still and he goes uh
all right man we'll get you back on and then he walked back to his truck and he got on like a
walkie-talkie or some shit or a cb and then three trucks rolled up and there were 12 dudes in my
backyard and an hour later that's had power. That's amazing.
It was fucking awesome.
It was fucking awesome.
But then I didn't have internet.
And so that didn't get fixed until yesterday.
Oh, it's back though.
Yeah, it's back.
I'm recording at home right now.
It was cool to see the updates.
And I guess it felt way longer to you.
But I was surprised that every day we'd get an email from Austin Energy or whoever.
It's like, we got 68% of customers back online.
And the next day be like, hey, there's 75%.
And you were always, I think it got down to like 88%.
And Jeff was in the remaining,
like it was like 92%
and you were in the remaining eight or something.
I was in the remaining 5%.
And today's email was 99.
They were sending me texts and emails saying,
congratulations, 95% of customers have power
and i was reading it on my phone plugged into a fucking battery it was pretty impressive though
just to like see the progress every day it's like jesus they must have reconnected so many people
yesterday but you were just right at the very end i wonder how long it would have gone on if you
didn't run out like a maniac well that's that's the thing, right? I'd have been fucked.
Like, I would have literally been fucked because I have not seen a truck on the street since.
Like, I think they fixed this neighborhood and moved on and I would have just gone to the back of the fucking line, I guess.
Even though I had reported it like four times and called and a lady read.
She was like, sir, I have three reports.
Let me read them to you.
Is this you?
Is this you?
Is this you?
And I'm like, yep, that's me.
And she's like, okay. And I let me read them to you is this you is this you is this you and I'm like yep that's me and she's like okay
and I'm like we could put another one in
even though I did all that I still
have no faith that had
that guy not pulled over if I hadn't
desperately like like a lunatic
chased after him
I would probably be in an Airbnb
I would be in the other Airbnb that I couldn't
get a refund for for Wednesday and
Thursday that cost me $600.
Oh, man.
Yeah, I booked it, and then four hours later, I had to pay.
No!
And then I was like, please, please.
It was like $659, and they gave me $59 back.
Oh, that's so kind of them.
It's a great refund.
It's insulting.
I had the freeze reveal this bag.
It's a bag of soil that I threw So basically
The freeze collapsed all my plants
And it allowed me to see this bag
I was like oh I remember that
I just chucked a bag of soil back there
Because about a year ago I tried to plant some stuff
Here's how it went
Didn't take
Everything died
Planted some stuff over by the fence.
Died.
Nothing I plant lasts.
Sorry, not to interrupt, but just for the people listening.
Not just dead.
Like, it looks like parts of Gavin's yard are in Mad Max.
Like, that's how dead.
Yeah.
Zero life.
It looks like they were tortured to death.
No matter how much water I give them or don't give them or where I put him in the shade and the Sun everything just burns to a crisp and dies. So I'm just like let me just throw away this
depressing bag of soil. I picked it up and it flew out of my hand and slapped straight back down into the ground.
The freaking bag grew! I grew a bag!
Something in the bag has taken and a root has burrowed
through the plastic
and straight into the ground.
It's a strong root. I grew something.
Jeff, did you do that?
It feels like he's being pranked. Is that a prank
by you? Because you said that's a great prank.
Did you throw a bunch of seeds in my hidden bag?
Who fucking...
Things were still weird between us at the time, so
I couldn't...
Who thinks of that prank?
I wish I was that smart.
That's devious.
I really want to know what it is.
What if it's not a weed?
What if it's a rare tree?
It could be a rare tree.
I think people should, everyone should buy a bag of soil and just plant it.
That's, yeah.
As a bag. You don't know it. That's, yeah. As a bag.
You don't know it's not a rare tree.
So it's on the table.
It's possibly a rare tree.
I just can't believe that something that's been hidden under a bush inside a bag with no sunlight can actually survive better than the stuff I want to grow.
That's crazy.
I mean, that feels pretty par for the course to me.
Did you put, is the bag still down?
Oh, I'm not gonna get rid of it now. Yeah, now you're committed
Are you gonna try to are you gonna try to grow it further?
Are you just gonna leave it well no if I try to grow it will die
If you make any attempt to take care of it you will kill it
Yeah, so you're just gonna leave it and it's just gonna continue. I'm gonna leave it
Can we get an update and like a year from now?
Can you put in your calendar
if the bag is still there?
Oh, definitely, yeah.
If it grows baby bags,
I'll buy one for you.
We've missed you, Jeff,
without internet.
We've continued to play Warzone.
Oh, man, that sounds cool.
I would love to play with y'all.
We should play.
Are you playing tonight?
We could play tonight.
Could maybe play tonight, yeah.
What time?
That's a maybe.
Tomorrow night?
I can't do tomorrow night.
Tomorrow night and Saturday night,
I'll be out of town.
Okay.
We'll figure it out.
And then Sunday,
there'll be a Super Bowl.
We had an all-time moment
when we were playing
the other night, Jeff,
because you know game chat.
That was something I was popping into
whenever we encounter people,
whenever we see it.
Because Gavin and I
were holding this building
and there were holding this building,
and there were people above us that were having constant conversation.
And so I said, let's switch to game chat.
And I told Gavin how to do it.
And so we're both in game chat,
just listening to these two guys.
And they had a helicopter above us.
So I dropped down an airstrike
to try to lure them to us.
And they avoided it,
but it destroyed their chopper.
And they're like, oh, the helicopter's gone now. now god damn it you want me to use my uav and the guy's like nah wait till we need it to
the last minute and something that those guys said uh made me laugh and i was like i had a little
laugh and i was like oh my god i hope they didn't i hope it didn't come through and then a moment
later i hear the guy yell i I see you, Gavin Free.
Because Gavin also had a little like the slightest laugh and it came through and his name popped up and they got so aggressive about it.
It's fantastic.
We've missed you.
It escalated until like three other teams showed up and everybody died.
It was the best.
But just like I was so nervous.
I blew our cover.
And then I heard like a little snort from Gavin and just
the guy jumped on it.
I just couldn't help it.
It's great.
That's what we've been doing. Well you've been struggling
with your air me be situation.
It sucks that you weren't able to get refunded.
Oh that's okay. I feel like
I paid 600 bucks to get my power
turned back on. You know? Yeah I guess
if you put it in that perspective, sure.
It's all in how you choose to look at it
to help maintain one's sanity.
That's fair.
In these complicated times.
I'm not letting it get me down, boys.
I said I was going to have a good 2023.
I said it wasn't going to start off like dog shit like 2022.
I lost my power for a week.
I got stitches all up and down my hand,
but I have power now
and I have no stitches, so everything's
coming up roses. You have a fridge?
Is the fridge okay?
The fridge is okay. I bought it
and I had to buy an entire new
round of ketchup and mustard
and soy sauce
and fucking milk and sodas
and shit. Well, not sodas, but...
Can ketchup not be warm?
Dude, I don't know.
Can ketchup be warm?
It's supposed to be refrigerated.
I think you can have it out for a bit.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know, for like a week?
Once it's opened?
I don't know.
I just proofed the Next Does It Do,
the disgusting vomit one.
It's a real...
It's foul.
I haven't finished it yet. I got to the part where it's real it's a real it's foul i haven't finished it yet i got to the i got to
the part where it's like one hour later we're about to start checking it out and then i had
to turn it off thankfully they cut to you when i actually threw up so you see that you see a lot
of gagging and you don't see any vomit come out my mouth which is probably for the best but when
i was talking to disgusting i was talking to tyler about the other day he was saying he wasn't sure it was an episode and i was like oh hell yeah it is it's got to be an episode
he's like maybe it'll be cut up and put as a part of another and i was like no no it's it's
definitely an episode it's just a it's just a gross episode can i can i see the cuts of whatever
that is i want to see this so bad can i whatever list i need to be on to see the cuts of this
have you not seen any of i haven't, I haven't seen any of the update.
We've got two episodes.
Oh, I need to see them.
That's great.
Maybe we should show them to you on office day or something.
So that's what I was thinking.
I'm intentionally not sending them to people that weren't directly in that because I didn't
know if it was going to be a thing where it's like, we want to show you these a certain
way.
We want you to do this other thing with it.
I'm intentionally holding that back. But if you want me to send it to Andrew, I
can send them both episodes right now.
Whatever works.
As long as I get to see them.
I think it'd be fun to hear your reaction.
Is it like full episodes?
How long are they?
Yeah.
Like 12, like one's like eight minutes.
I think one's like 12 minutes.
I think they're all going to be around eight to 15, something like that.
So you want me to save these Gavin for whenever? When is our next office day supposed to be?
It is the beginning of March the 3rd.
Okay.
I'm just going to, I'll avoid watching these for a month.
Will the show be out by then?
It is slated and people are going to dog me because it's not going to come out at this time, but whatever.
The week of March 13th is supposed to be the first one, but I'm trying to work something in the background.
So,
okay.
Why don't we move an office day up?
Yeah.
When would you like to do it?
No,
we're not.
No,
hang on.
No,
we're not.
Hang on.
Hang on.
Go ahead.
Gavin,
Gavin,
when would you like to talk about after talk about after I kind of want to move it off
as well.
I wouldn't mind moving it up.
Yeah, yeah.
No, I think that's fine.
So when would you like to do that?
How about next Friday?
Next Friday, the 17th.
What do you think, Gavin?
Done.
Moving on.
I'm sorry?
Yeah.
He's moving on.
He's going to talk about it later.
Oh, okay.
No, he said done.
Yeah, moving on.
I just don't want to fill the episode with another one of us arranging something.
No, no.
That's, yeah.
Well, you did this.
You brought it into play.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, you should have done that.
17th.
Got it.
Well, I did it with also saying, let's talk about it after.
Adding it now, and it is sent the 17th.
We've done it.
Easy peasy.

Going online without ExpressVPN is like changing
while leaving your windows wide open.
You might not have anything to hide,
but why give random creeps a chance to invade your privacy?
It doesn't even have to be random creeps. I've lived on plenty of places where the windows would just face like a central
street that people would walk by. You got to be careful. You got to make sure if you're changing
in front of a window, you got to keep it closed. You got to be safe, just like you should be safe
when you go online, which is why you need a VPN. Because when you go online without a VPN,
internet service providers can see every single website you visit. They can legally sell
this information without your consent to ad companies and tech giants who then use your data
to target you. And I don't want to be targeted by a tech giant or even like mid-sized tech or small
small tech. Do they have other names other than I've only heard tech giants. I've never heard of
like what you call a mid-sized tech company?
My voice just broke there. That was weird. But we're moving on because we are talking about ExpressVPN and how with it you can browse more anonymously. When you use ExpressVPN,
ISPs cannot see your online activity. Your identity is anonymized by a secure VPN server.
Your data is also encrypted for maximum protection. It's easy to use. You fire

so everyone who shares your Wi-Fi can be protected. I love ExpressVPN because it let me watch the
spelling bee, and you can access libraries that are outside of your region as far as media goes.

When you are going through something
or you're just struggling,
whether it be a work or a personal issue,
getting back to a place where you feel good
can be so difficult,
and it just makes the day-to-day tasks
so much more challenging,
or at least that's how it is for me.
And not having a system in place
or ways to get back to that point
can make that experience so much harder to get to.
When you're at your best, you can do great things,
but sometimes life gets you bogged down and you may feel overwhelmed
or like you're not showing up in the way that you'd want to.
Working with a therapist can help you get closer to the best version of you
because when you feel empowered,
you're more prepared to take on everything life throws at you.
I know that's certainly true for me.
Therapy has been an amazing tool.
It's something that has helped me in so many ways
in getting through past traumas,
as well as just having systems to approach issues when they arise
and dealing with them in much healthier ways.
So if you're thinking of giving therapy a try,
BetterHelp is a great option.
It's convenient, flexible, affordable, and entirely online.
Just fill out a brief questionnaire to get matched with a licensed therapist
and switch therapists anytime for no additional charge.
If you want to live a more empowered life, therapy can get you there.

Do you ever just do something that,
in public,
that is like you autopilot and do it,
and then you realize it's really inappropriate?
Yes.
I burp and fart loudly all the time now,
thanks to the pandemic.
When I was working at Waitrose,
I couldn't stop ripping the receipt off other people's checkouts
i just kept doing it it's like a muscle muscle memory of just like if i was buying something
in a different store i would tear the receipt off because i was so used to doing it when i
was working the waitress check i had to. It was becoming a real problem for me.
I was like, oh, I'm so sorry. I also
work on the checkout. Have you had anything
like that? No, not that I can
think of.
Not that it didn't go
unchecked. I got
flagged for... I didn't
realize I was doing it, but now
that it was pointed out to me, I realized I did it
a lot at Christmas. I kept opening up all of Emily's presents for her when she wasn't opening them
because you're like why I've been present sometimes you know and she'd be like it's my
present and I was like oh fuck I did it again didn't I yeah that's funny hope that's not
something I've been doing my whole life and it's just the first time somebody's pointed out to to me you know did you have something come up gavin that that made
you think of that recently well basically when i'm tired that stuff kind of sneaks in again
so i think i was really tired at pet smart or something and i i'll reach for it i didn't i
probably probably the only thing that manifested physically was maybe my hand twitched as i like
stopped myself and i was like oh my god it's been like 17 years since I worked in a supermarket.
But I still was just like, oh, that's so funny.
Like, I'm actually worried about it.
That really burned in for some reason.
Yeah, that's interesting.
And I've never had that.
I've had things that are not socially acceptable to do when I was like, I don't know, seven.
I accidentally stole a Pez dispenser briefly from a store because we're
like gonna go see shrek or something and i got really excited about it and i was like i'll just
i'll wait at the theater and i ran out of the store and the alarm went off and i was like i
guess the alarm's going off like i didn't connect that it was me and then i got all the way to the
theater and realized that i was still holding like the the packaged pez dispenser and i had to go all
the way back and return it you just thought it was that pair of shorts
or something. Yeah.
That was before the shorts.
I did have a thing recently
talking about my sneak
game. I don't think this is shoplifting.
Maybe you guys can evaluate
if this is shoplifting or not. We got the Super
Bowl this weekend. It's a lot
of like grocery stores. They got their deals
and whatnot. and there was
like this buy three family-sized bags of chips for ten dollars and i was like great i'll get
two ketchups and i'll get a barbecue and so i got i went to the store they didn't have any barbecue
in the thing so i was like i'll just take i'll get a plane i guess so i got my two ketchups and
my plane paid for everything as i'm leaving the
store i realized that they have a display kind of near the front with a bunch of the chips and
there's a barbecue in that pile but i've already paid for my plane so i was like oh what do i do
is it okay is it morally is it stealing if i swap out one of my chip bags because I've paid for all three, but I didn't pay for this specific bag of chips.
So...
If the price is the same,
that's totally fine.
It's the same.
It's the exact same.
It would have been the exact same deal.
Everything's the same.
It's just a different flavor.
It's a different bag.
I assume you're just messing with their inventory,
but it's not...
I wouldn't say it's stealing.
It's the closest.
I've never shoplifted anything,
and I was like, oh, yeah, as you know,
I'm a real sneaky guy, so let's pull it off.
You shop swapped.
Yeah, let's pull off this maneuver.
So I was kind of nervous about it,
and I was like, well, looking around
and making sure that there's nobody looking,
and I put all the chips down,
and then I thought I was being real sneaky,
and I grabbed the barbecue.
I was like, hmm, interesting, and then I like, I thought I was being real sneaky and I grabbed the barbecue. It was like, Hmm, interesting.
And then like,
I walked away with my bags and everything,
my,
my three chips.
And I got in the car and I realized that I'd accidentally swapped out the
wrong bag.
I wanted to get rid of my regular,
I had two ketchups and it was supposed to be a barbecue.
I instead got rid of one of my ketchups.
So now I had one bag of ketchup,
one bag of barbecue and one bag of barbecue, and one bag of plain.
And I walked back in the store and I did it again.
I did it nervously.
I got rid of the bag I grabbed that I wasn't supposed to.
So we're all good.
But I ended up having to do it twice.
How's that stealing, Eric?
I think that leaving, you've walked into weird territory by leaving.
And then going back. But it's the same.
It's untouched.
But here's the thing. I'm fine
with it. I think you should steal from the grocery
store. So I'm okay with it.
But I want
you to know that I still think it's
stealing. Really? Here's the
deal. It's not stealing if you
haven't left the parking lot.
If you're in the parking lot of the store still,
you're still a part of the store, I think.
So if you walk outside into the parking lot
and then walk back into the store,
I think that's fine.
Now, if you were to leave the parking lot
and then come back,
then I think you gotta talk to the manager.
But I think if you just step outside for a second
and go like, oh, fuck, I grabbed the wrong thing,
I think you'd go back.
That's actually an interesting,
I didn't even consider asking one of the staff.
Why,
why would the threshold be the parking lot?
Cause I think it's still a part of the store.
Why would the threshold be the store?
Why,
Andrew,
you're asking why the threshold,
the threshold for the store would be the store.
No,
no,
I'm saying you're saying the threshold is if you leave the store and he's
saying,
if you leave the parking lot,
what you're saying is an arbitrary
line that you've made up. So for you to be
like, Jeff, your arbitrary line is ridiculous.
The door is the threshold.
I didn't make up
the line. They put the
door there. The HEB parking lot
is HEB property.
It's part and parcel
with the store, so i still think they're
they're connected that's a good point okay so hang on hang on gavin do you think that what he did was
good or bad or stealing where's the line i think yeah i think you should have talked to the someone
in there i think that's just a weird thing to just go in and but i paid i didn't cost the store
any money i paid exactly what i should have paid. The transaction was
as intended. Yeah, but something's missing
for them now, isn't it? Well, it's, you know,
maybe, I'm sure people steal
chips all the time. Like, I'm
sure that my thing, I'm sure I'm
not the one in perfection in the
system. So now you're saying
people steal chips, so it's okay that you
stole chips? No, I didn't steal chips.
I'm saying it's okay that I may have messed with their inventory system.
Because I'm sure it's fucked.
I mean, every place I've worked at that has done inventory, it's fucked.
It never works.
I messed with a store inventory once.
I found, when I was moving house once, I found a pot noodle down the back of my drawers
that expired like seven years ago.
And pot noodles expire like five years after you get them.
And I thought it'd be funny just to put them back on the shelf at the shop so i did i messed with
their inventory on a much larger time scale but i don't think what i did is stealing i think it's
just potentially giving them a lawsuit i put i just put it back with the other pot noodles and
all of like the the logo and packaging was different. And it was expired by,
it was expired by like,
what if somebody buys that and gets sick and die?
You murdered somebody.
Well,
I assume the barcode won't work.
It's way worse than,
it's way worse than switching out somebody's potato chips.
You're a killer.
I assume someone would just try and buy it.
This one looks different.
And then it says like 1997 on the back.
Oh, God.
I'd be so mad if I bought those.
I wouldn't do that now.
That was actually before I worked at a supermarket.
The 20 feet from swapping the chips to walk into the car,
I've never felt cooler.
And it was such a letdown to realize I grabbed the wrong bag.
I swapped out the wrong thing.
You always think you're being sneaky when you're not.
Do you want to talk about how not sneaky you were last night on Call of Duty?
What do you mean?
When you tried to sneak out of your previous party.
I was playing.
I was playing with a different group of people,
and I was swapping over to join with Gavin,
and I forgot I hadn't left the session I was previously in,
so they were all still with me.
And I was like, yeah, I'm going to call call for the night I'll talk to you guys later and I joined
Gavin and I brought the entire party with me I panicked I didn't know what to
do so I just left the lobby like that was the solution and I said I don't know
what the name of it I don't know what the name of the opposite of an Irish
goodbye is but Andrew definitely did it he just threw everyone into my party and left himself.
And I was like, oh, what the fuck?
And I couldn't figure out how to leave.
So I was like, oh.
So then I got a message from one of the people that was in that party.
And they said, it's funny.
Gavin joined our session right after you left they didn't realize
I brought them they thought that Gavin
was trying to join me naturally
and it just happened the timing
was off
and so I was like
and then I was like oh shit and he left
and I was like oh
so they think that
they messaged me and they're like yeah because they had they played
with gavin before i invited them when we're playing and so they thought that gavin added
them on call of duty and just like joined i don't know what they thought but they didn't realize i
brought them and they completely misinterpreted it but they listened to the show so i guess
whenever they hear this they'll realize what happened you were in my voice chat at that point but you brought them into my card game so they couldn't hear you
no or me oh the panic of seeing all four people just a full that's brilliant that's great
i saw something interesting on our base instagram Yeah. So the people have been posting their own
life hacks. Gavin life
hack. If it's dark, use
one of these switches on the wall.
Look, I get it, alright? I don't understand
what qualifies as a life hack yet,
but I'm working on it. There's no need for that.
There's no need.
It would be, your life hack would be if it's dark, flip the light switch in your room to turn the
lights on.
I laugh my ass off for that.
That's so funny.
Do you think?
I'll eventually get one.
You need to keep writing down everyone you think is one.
That's going to be the end payoff.
I'm so excited to hear that. I have a few more written down. I'm just too embarrassed to even oh, please
Please share one give us one just one save
Life hack save money on nostalgia keep your childhood ed 64 right this only applies
But right like gaming now don't sell
I always sold my Super Nintendo
to buy my N64
and then I sold my N64
to buy my Xbox
but all that happened later is that I had to buy one again
on eBay and it's more expensive
so just save the money up
front right um just you know do a little bit of extra work uh don't don't sell the console that
you're on now because it's your child this is for the kids out there and it might it might have an
emotional connection to you later when you realize you haven't had it and you want to get one again.
This is your most narrow.
Yeah, that's pretty specific, though, isn't it?
It was so specific and it's against time.
You can't tell anyone now and buy an N64 20 years ago.
If you grew up on the PS5, right?
And you had the best games you play as you players growing up, right? They're amazing.
It's unbelievable. I
think because nostalgia is so expensive,
you can make the saving now.
This is the problem, though. That's my hack. I think
the real power of it is when
you're a kid. I think
the nostalgia, maybe,
I don't know. I don't think I'm gonna
be as into, I love the
GameCube and the N64. I don't think in 20 years from be as into... I love the GameCube and the N64.
I don't think in 20 years from now,
I'll feel the same about the Xbox One.
But you didn't grow up on the Xbox One.
No, that's what I'm saying.
I'm saying it's specific for kids,
so it's not like you can tell people now who are adults,
hey, hold on to that PS5.
Yeah, but he's not.
He's telling kids today.
I'm saying that that's even how narrow his thing...
This is the most narrow advice I think he's given.
I'd have to look at it. I don't remember the other ones off
the top of my head, but it is so specific.
Eric said,
life hack is just weight. What it pulls
down to is if you're a kid, don't ever throw
anything away because when you're a grown
up, the one thing that you threw away
or traded away, it's worth a lot of money now
and you're fucked. And you would have had that money
but now you don't have that money. If I could buy
my actual childhood Super
Nintendo, I would pay double the
price for it. If I could have that specific
one, I would love it. I think the nice
thing about being a grown up is that you can
buy back all the shit you had when you
were a kid easily because you can afford
it and it's not grimy and covered
in crap.
I think it depends on maybe what you're collecting.
Certain things, they can get real expensive pretty quickly.
I definitely regret like trading in a bunch of games at GameStop when I was growing up to try to get whatever, like trading in 20 games to get one game just because I didn't
have the money for it.
But I'd rather have those 20 games at this point than whatever that new release was.
So hack or whack uh i would say definite whack if those are my only two options second of all i want you to reframe this and think about you're on a skype call with your grandpa as a kid
and your grandpa tells you this do you think it connects at all because it's for kids but it feels like
the most i'm gonna tone you out advice i would get from an old person like that's how i'd view
it as a kid oh yeah no one no one would actually well no one's listening to this you don't want
to hold on to the old thing when there's a new thing out you don't want to wait like an extra
year as a kid i understand that but i just i just wish i sold something different what would you
have sold i don't know like a lamp i don't know i should have sold a bunch of smaller shit i just really missed my
super nintendo yeah like a like a bicycle or something yeah bike is fair a lamp all my parents
lamps what you've done here where'd your where'd your bedside table go?
What you've done here, it's not a life hack, but it is a life pro tip.
Yes.
Okay.
You've created a life pro tip.
All of Gavin's advice has been great.
It just is not a hack in any way.
All right.
Yeah.
That's why I wanted to keep that one to myself. What if we gave you a prompt and we were like, come back in a week with a life hack for this
problem or this product?
Sounds like a great prompt for all of us to have a go at.
Yeah, well, then we'd all have to do it, though.
I guess how would we come up with the prompt, though?
Well, we'll have to think about that.
Yeah, we'll think about the prompt.
The prompt could be anything.
It could be garden hose.
It could be cold pizza.
It could be, I don't know, whatever, you know? Eric could come up with the prompt. The prompt could be anything. It could be garden hose. It could be a cold pizza. It could be,
I don't know,
whatever,
you know,
Eric can come up with a prompt.
Okay.
I think we can come up with solutions.
All right.
Okay.
I'll try to think of a prompt.
I don't really don't use Simon as Eric.
Like I,
so far I was given garden hose or cold pizza.
Yeah.
Cool.
So you want us to come up
with a garden hose life hack?
No, I don't.
No, you said...
I think you do.
I could probably do that.
I'm pretty sure...
I think Jeff just has
a garden hose life hack
and he's trying to steer it
to that.
Yeah, I think so too.
So he can establish
his great life hack.
No, I don't.
I don't have any...
The first thing I would do
would be to Google
garden hose life hack.
Garden hose.
I think that the thing that's special about these life hacks,
especially Gavin's life hacks,
is that they feel like they are solving a problem that, that is apparently unique to him,
but not,
but also not really solving a problem.
So I feel like given a prompt is really narrowing the focus.
I really like the way they're rolling in.
I really like all of Gavin's life hacks,
which are just sort of advice that you would hear someone say,
and you'd go, all right, man, thanks.
And then walk away and go, nah.
These are really, I think so far,
I don't remember what your second one was,
but the first one was learning classical music, right?
Like who composed what?
Yeah.
This one is save all the stuff.
It's really old Gavin trying to teach young,
like these are things you wish you would have learned.
And these are coming up,
I'm assuming as you're encountering them in your life.
Like, did you look at your n64 last night was like
man i wish i didn't pay 150 or 200 for this now like how did you get to that conclusion well i
was just playing goldeneye again on the xbox i was like i wish i could just play this on my
original hardware see what see what it feels like but you don't you don't actually no goldeneye on
the original hardware plays like shit.
Yeah. I mean, it doesn't play great on even modern.
It's having two analog sticks makes it so much better.
It's a nightmare with one.
Nostalgia makes everything so much better than it was.
That's the beauty of nostalgia.
That's why at least play it on emulators, play it on your Xbox, and play it well.
But there's a certain feeling you can get though of
like firing up a super nintendo game that you haven't seen or heard in 20 years and then the
music kicks on and you're like oh holy shit you get a ton of memories that that's like the hit i
want that's a little dopamine hit i get that but what if you chase that i feel like that would wear
off over time if that was a thing you pursued constantly.
Yeah. And it's diminishing returns. Yeah. I think like spreading it out is the way to go with that.
I wonder if that would be less rewarding if you could just go into your closet and pull it out.
Like if you had your original. Do you think you're wishing you had your old Super Nintendo is better than if you just had it?
Like the feeling you would have
of just keeping it this entire time.
I don't know.
I think it'd be pretty cool to be like,
that's the first game console I played.
Yeah, that's fair.
I just, I wonder if like the,
the weight of those emotions are heightened
because you don't have it
as opposed to if you would have kept it all along,
if it would feel as special.
Yeah, I don't know.
The possibility of it adding to the experience.
Yeah, I feel like nostalgic moments like that,
like those little dopamine hits like you're talking about,
they're almost better when they come at you unexpected.
Yes.
Like when they catch you off guard.
Could you imagine how excited you would have been, Jeff,
if we were like, yeah, we're going to watch a movie.
We're not going to tell you what it is.
And it was Condor Man.
And you had no idea.
We just watched Condor Man one day
without you having any point of reference for it.
Oh, dude, it would be like,
I'd be like, are you fucking serious?
Do you guys know I saw this when I was a kid?
I love this movie.
I remember going to the theater with my mom.
We got ice cream.
Yeah, no, it would have blown my fucking mind.
Absolutely.
The first episode just came out
where Nick has the laugh track.
I liked it a lot.
I listened to it and I liked it.
What did you guys think?
I liked it.
I think a lot of the audience are like, we love it. And there's like
another 50% that's like, it's weird. It's
distracting. So I don't know
what to do. Keep it.
Yeah, it's one of those things too where it's
like, my informal
tracking
put it at like 70 positive
30 negative. Or maybe
even like 70 positive 30 negative or maybe even like 70 positive 20 negative 10 like
ambivalent but i don't know yeah i don't know i i i personally enjoy it nick is so expressive too
like i even heard not only laughs but i heard like a gasp or two yeah yeah i thought it added
quite a lot it is sort of a weird just from a structure perspective
of listening to somebody who's not i mean nick nick chimes in sometimes and that's awesome it's
always great when he does but he's not regularly talking on the show but you're hearing his
reaction to the show it's like a weird like between line of listening to somebody on a podcast who's
not actually on the podcast but like you're listening to someone else listening,
almost like a Terrace House.
Is that just because we can't hear him there?
Because then he would be on the podcast, right?
Yeah, I guess so.
I think the fact that we can't hear him
maybe creates that layer in my head.
All right, for the next one,
we have him unmuted so we can hear him
and we see if it changes the vibe.
That could be interesting.
That's interesting. I like that. Let's do that.
Let's do that. Let's do that.
And then there's not, like, two layers to this.
Yeah, let's try that.
I like that idea a lot.
I hope.
I don't think it would be a good idea.
I always liked Tough Crowd,
which is this old Comedy Central show.
They would have their audience mic'd in a way
that wasn't always positive.
So, like, frequently somebody would tell a joke
and it wouldn't land at all
and it would be very awkward in the moment.
Like the comedian would have to acknowledge
like that they bombed as part of the show.
She don't really get in like talk comedy formats
all that much.
I don't think we need to go that far,
but I'd like to hear Nick laughing.
It would be interesting to see how that adjusted.
Maybe how we told stories.
It's the same as if as like on the Howard Stern show,
you can hear people laughing in the background or like on ymh it's a i think it adds a certain texture to the show
and kind of fills it out um i do think that our our being able to hear it will change our energy
a little bit which will i think help and it's not like we just wheeled someone in nick is here for
every recording yeah anyway fucking better better. What if we had
a designated laugher
who we don't know. They just join
the call and then they record
their reaction. Andrew are you a big
Colin Quinn fan? I like some of his work.
I haven't seen any of his recent stuff
but I like because you mentioned tough
grad. He he has a new show on the
Howard Stern series channel.
Oh interesting. Like a talk show. I havenard stern uh serious channel oh interesting like a talk show
i haven't heard it or anything but if you're a fan he does a really weird like almost essay style of
stand-up comedy where like his sets are like really narrative based in history at least the
ones i've seen as far as like past in new york uh there was great colin quinn moment where he did
you know like when people go on fallon or whatever and they do like they they pre-arrange what they're gonna say and they do their like little bit and then they throw to a clip he did you know like when people go on Fallon or whatever and they do like they prearrange what they're gonna say and they do
their like little bit and then they throw it to a clip
he did his little like set thing
and they threw to the clip and it was
the exact the clip was the exact
material he used for his
little bit thing it was just the same thing
doubled up like he didn't know what clip they were
gonna use and so he did his like
little set and they threw it to be
like watch my special
and it was the exact same material
it just doubled up it's the most embarrassed
I've seen a guest on
any of those shows he's
just dead when they came back of like I
didn't I didn't know this is
oh that's awesome good book
I had a embarrassing moment the other day where
it's like another one of the situations where it's like i swear i'm a normal person but sometimes it just looks like
i'm an insane person where uh this was like during the freeze and i had i was supposed to go to my
therapy but i just decided to do it virtual um and then my internet went like i lost internet
because the weather i guess and just the whole street went off like i had to
suddenly like pivot i was like oh shit because i'm already like 20 minutes into therapy and i didn't
want to just like call it a day there because i still have to pay for the whole session so i text
the guy and he was like oh yeah just phone me and i have no signal ever so i'm like scrambling around
like time's ticking and i quickly just i'm like oh where are my shoes and in the end i just shoved
on my like yard shoes i made some ugly shoes on a converse but I put them
the wrong size they're too big so I just I just wear them like in the house or
like in the yard or something like that so I just stuffed them on and I'm like
walking I'm like walking miles from my house I was probably walked a mile to
get signal and then I called him again I've got 20 minutes therapy left at this
point but these shoes don't fit me.
And they started like rubbing halfway.
So I'm like, oh, for Christ's sake.
And then eventually I'm just like pacing around.
Eventually get some signal I'm calling him.
And I'm like finishing the end of my therapy.
You know, talking about some deep stuff, you know, getting pretty personal.
And I'm kind of like bummed out.
And then my freaking foot hurts.
So I end up, I just took my shoe off.
And I'm walking around
and then at that point someone was like Gavin I was like oh hey oh no I was like he was like I
love your stuff and I was like oh thanks man oh no can I have a selfie I'm like absolutely
as I'm walking around with my shoe in one hand and my therapist in the other hand I'm like hold
hold on one second
and i'm it's like a freaking maniac and i haven't showered or anything because i just like i didn't
expect to be out and about and uh just i just don't know what to do in that situation i'm i love
i'm always down to take the selfie like i've been asked in toilets and took them i don't it's not
the best place i mean wait for me to come out but but I'll still do it. But that was the one where I was like, maybe I should say no on this one.
I look like dog shit.
I like a maniac who doesn't know where he is.
Oh, my God.
I can't think of a worse place to take a selfie than in a therapy session.
It was definitely a first.
I really didn't expect it.
I can't believe.
With one shoe on.
Dude, that's so funny i have i've had similar
experiences because i always i can't think still i have to walk uh or ride a bike or something so
i always walk in my neighborhood when i take my when i do my therapy uh and so i've had twice
dudes stop to say hi uh but nobody's asked to take a photo and every time i've had socks and shoes on and
been like super comfy the weather must have been dog shit too right like it wasn't great
it wasn't great nothing about it was great but um it was like all rainy and fucking wet and
fucking icy probably yeah but hopefully that guy stays better and it's also a funny story
oh man but yeah that's
gonna be that's gonna be worse than the one i took in the bathroom at a convention center
bathroom selfies i won't do it i say no let's wash our hands we'll go outside it's like it's
one of those things where it's like i i could say like this is the work this is like not the place
to ask but i feel like the person already knows that and they're potentially
worried that I'll just piss off the second I leave the bathroom
so I kind of understand it so I don't
I don't ever want to be like no I don't want to take
the selfie of course of course
yeah it's a weird exchange
I think a therapy session I think just
if you would have said to that person I can't I'm in a
therapy session right now just to see their
reaction would have been great
no you can't do that to
that person though because that will
that could cause like permanent
damage to a person. Really?
I think if I
were in their shoes and I realized I
unintentionally interrupted somebody
who's just walking on the street in broad daylight, right?
With a shoe in his hand or whatever.
Not looking terribly serious. If I
interrupted that person and found out they were like deeply in a serious moment like that with a therapist, his hand or whatever, not looking terribly serious. If I interrupted that person, found out they were like deeply
in a serious moment like that with a therapist,
I would be so horrified.
I would never talk to another stranger again.
Oh man, that's so interesting.
Well, this is a person who is fine
talking to someone who's already on the phone.
So they've already got to that level.
That's true.
That's a good point.
That is true.
Imagine if they would have waited
for you to get off the phone.
Although, although, did you have your AirPods in?
No.
Oh, so you were holding the phone to your head?
No, no, no, because it was literally in my hand.
Both my hands were full.
Okay.
That was like one of the funny parts of it.
Okay.
Well, then, yeah, that's hard to forgive.
That's pretty rude.
I just quickly grabbed shoes and ran out the door.
That's pretty rude. You ever see somebody on the phone uh yeah don't let them let them have their conversation it's fine it was funny it was very funny i can't yeah that's the all-time
worst timing i feel like that was such a quick hour i'm bummed it's over. I'd love to see that selfie. I know. Yeah, I hope it gets tweeted to me.
It just fucking flew by today, didn't it?
I didn't even open my phone to look at notes.
Although I doubt I have any.
I was so excited for this recording.
For some reason, this last week just felt extra long.
I think it was like Saturday when I was like,
man, how is it not Thursday already?
Felt pretty long for me too.
I think next week we're doing two, right?
And then we have an office
day potentially so we're gonna yeah yeah next friday next friday not potentially definitely
well should we wrap this episode up do you have anything before we wrap oh i mean let me look at
my notes i i ate indian food somewhat recently for the first time or no i hadn't had it in a long time i had like this big
thing of butter chicken and i did like a two buy one get one free it's like a promotion type thing
they were just opening i guess i don't know anyway i hadn't had it in a long time and i wondered
if it would like fuck up my body like if i was gonna take a massive shit essentially from eating
all this indian food uh i anticipate it then i had the second one the next day and I was like, oh man,
this is going to be crazy. Then that night I realized I hadn't shit since having the food.
I think my body went into overtime. I had a bath, I fell asleep and I was texting with you at the
time, Jeff, I woke up in the bath and i thought my body it was like the
hardest it's ever been through i thought nine hours had passed i thought i had the deepest sleep
of my life i thought i was a different person i was like i hope the people i hope my partner isn't
worried that like i went miss like i have been gone a long time like i might be dead in their
eyes and i looked at my phone 30 minutes it was a 30
minute i fell asleep for 30 i was so it's the most out of it i've been and i'm attributing it to the
butter chicken it was delicious would highly recommend but my body just was like couldn't
i don't know i stopped shitting and i had the craziest nap of my life where i thought like i
was a different person when i came up on the other side of it.
So I guess I'd recommend butter chicken.
You know what's weird?
We all had butter chicken
last night. We had Indian food last night.
Really? Yeah. I didn't time
travel or anything, but it was very good.
Maybe tomorrow. Maybe
have a bath tomorrow. Listen, have you
shit since you've had the butter chicken?
I have. I've taken my customary three shits this morning all right okay well never mind your
body's okay i uh speaking of speaking of uh indian food i really you know what i miss the most about
my house what you sorely sorely miss after you get used to having it a fucking toto dude oh my god A fucking Toto, dude. Oh my God. Cold toilet seats?
I forgot they existed.
Really?
No gentle wash?
Oh.
Wow.
It's been, I feel like I've been shitting in the Stone Ages for the last week.
It's been fucking brutal.
I never even think about my cold toilets.
It's like I'm walking around with Fred Flintstone's prolapsed asshole because I'm just shitting
like a caveman.
You should get one of those like ups the apc
battery backups for your toilet i love the idea of the power going off and it's saying like oh
you can shit with with a warm seat for the next 32 minutes it is the most important thing in this
house oh my god well okay so you had to shit on a cold seat. I think a very important question that everybody's wondering, what is the sunglasses experience
like on a cold seat as opposed to a warm seat?
Is that, do you feel any less cool?
Great question, dude.
I couldn't even, I it's no, it's, it's creepy.
You can't do it.
What do you mean?
In a cold seat, you can't wear your sunglasses.
That makes you a creep.
Like, I mean a cold seat, like it's 30 degrees outside and you have no power in your house.
That cold? Yeah.
There's no sunglasses in that.
It doesn't work together.
It feels inappropriate.
I haven't been sunglass shitting a lot
in the last week. I'll be honest with you. I did three times today.
You should pick it up again. No, I'm back.
Now that I'm home, I'm back. How do you never
slip down in the bath
and go underwater while you're asleep? How do I never slip down in the bath and go underwater while you're asleep?
How do I never slip down in the bath? Because it's
a really narrow tub.
I still can't. Okay.
Imagine like
me in that bathtub
is like a cork half out of
a bottle. It's not going
anywhere. It's secured.
It's suppressed on all sides.
You're not worried about it popping off
it is locked in and is your head lent backwards or like onto your chest like it depends i will say
last night last night i had a little little nice little nap and i was in more of a stretched out
position and it caused the problem i I woke up because I adjusted and I
water shot out the back. I've talked
about before. We had some water drippage I had to get
out to deal with all that mess.
But I'm not going anywhere. It's safe.
I understand the concern.
I couldn't be more strapped
in. You're a bath cork.
I'm a bath cork. Absolutely I am.
God damn. Oh man.
Speaking of strapping in...
Eric's going to go hate shit.
No, no.
I'm ending it, Eric.
Don't worry.
Speaking of...
I just got two last things.
Speaking of strapping in...
No!
New season of Survivor starts next month.
Let's all watch it together.
Yeah.
Okay.
And stay on top of it.
And I'm mostly saying that to Gavin,
who can't manage to watch shit.
We never...
I don't think we talked about the end of the last season.
I love the ending.
Wild.
I thought the ending was great.
It was a great season.
Speaking of endings.
Yeah, no, we should end this podcast.
Speaking of ending this podcast,
I was looking on Reddit today,
and somebody posted this old Prank Wars video
from Mega64,
with Gus and I and Mega64, 64 back in 2009 if you haven't
seen it i encourage you to watch it first off i look amazing uh but so that you can see what
appears to be a 12 year old eric madur he is so tiny and fresh faced he's like a little baby man
i actually have a weird connection to that video that moment of
your guys's response i was at that pax there was a the last panel of i think the night it happened
was a griffball panel so i was at it and i was hanging out with you guys and i was there with
my cousin and my cousin wanted to go back to the hotel so i had to go back with them but it was
around that time i i remember like you guys learning that they had done something to your booth and that you're going over to respond.
Either you had already known and you're going over to fuck up their booth the way that you would the whole posters or you learn that they did something is one of the two.
But I remember and I missed out.
I could have been I could have witnessed you guys, I think, putting posters down.
I'm very sad.
It's my great regrets that I couldn't have been there for that.
How about this?
How weird is this?
Jeff and Andrew and Eric were all in the same fucking room at the same time in 2009 together.
That's fucking...
It's weird how long our lives have rotated around each other.
I wonder if there was one where all four of us were.
It would have to be a PAX. Yeah, no, PAX 2008. I wonder if there was one where all four of us were there. It would have to be at PAX.
Yeah, no, PAX 2008.
I don't know.
I don't remember if Eric was at that one,
but I think you were at that one, Gavin.
I was there.
Eric, were you at PAX 2008?
I'm looking it up right now.
God, I don't remember.
2008.
I definitely did 2007.
I don't think you were in 2009, Gavin.
I don't remember you there for that one.
Yeah, I don't remember you being there. I do remember that you were in 2009, Gavin. I don't remember you there for that one. Yeah, I don't remember you being there.
I do remember that prank fights, though.
No. I might have done PAX East.
Maybe. Did you ever go to PAX East, Andrew?
No. I've only been to PAX West as far as those conventions go. Andrew's a
West Coast guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bye. Okay, end it now.
I thought we were
waiting to hear if you were looking at it.
I don't know what you would have looked up
to find that information
to find out if he was there
maybe he
yeah
I looked
I don't think I am
I think it's the year before I went
oh man
yeah
well still
most of us were there
