Hello and welcome to another episode of the F*** Face Podcast.
This is episode 69.
No importance to that number, really.
It's just the one that follows episode 68, comes right before 70.
With me, as always, Andrew Panton from Canada, Gavin Free from England,
Eric Bedour from the land of San Diego, Nick Schwartz.
I don't know where Nick is. Nick is from Austin, Texas, I've decided, and I am from Mobile, Alabama.
And together every week we sit down and we talk about
tarot cards and tarot card readings.
Andrew, you were saying?
Well, I was just, we talked about,
we have that Rookie of the Year bet.
And I had somebody reach out a long time ago,
back when we're talking about doing it with basketball.
And I'd been meaning to email them
and they reached out over Twitter last night
about the bets and being willing to help send some some positive magic towards the players of our choice
and part of that was I got to have a tarot card reading on the bet got to kind of get an analysis
of how things are going to go essentially from my memory uh the first card I got said that my
my strengths are in my ambition and sneakiness but it may cause
resentment and uh strike is the may just strike through the word may yeah so this and the second
card was like i'm holding on to the past which could could be bad bets lost in the past which is
path of gambling if not 80 it's like that's all gambling is is you having regret about
things you you've done i don't remember i think the third one was like success would come from
teamwork and something i don't remember how it would work exactly like this team like face i
mean you can interpret that in so many ways maybe the success of of justin fields is in his teamwork
or or the players were going to pick but essentially
i opted i had to make a choice because the interpretation was that the magic would be
most powerful if focused on only one person but i didn't want to risk the resentfulness
that may come with that so i put everything on jeff and my player and gavin i didn't send
anything your way because i figured you're naturally lucky enough you don't need it
it's true Mac Jones is gonna be Mac
Jones he's not gonna be too as
well no you don't I
love that you remember how to say his last name
I got told by Eric
I think
what you need to evaluate Gavin is your
natural luck opposed to my
bad luck that the magic needs to counter
it's a much deeper hole
for the magic to take effect on my side i don't think i have good luck i think i have luck boosters
like if your luck is bad i'll make it worse as i've seen wherever i'm deciding what you bet
i'm like a like a luck catalyst
it's true i don't think i've ever won based off of advice given by you and we've done this
on the show and off the show i think i'm like oh and seven based upon gavin's guidance
eventually you should just go in on like a million dollar bet because if you if you've
lost 10 times you can't lose 11 sure that's That is such a gambler's mentality that is completely wrong.
And I love, I completely agree with.
It cannot possibly be read again.
Oh, it's read.
Well, it can't.
There's no way it will be read one more time.
Man, I know there's only so many face hours and a face day.
Yeah.
But I would love some shoulder content for this podcast.
That's you getting your tarot reading recorded.
Oh,
well,
it's already the tarot is done already.
I'm going to get always do it again.
We get it.
I just think that that like,
especially in the context of this bet,
I always feel like we should have all three of us do tarot readings and have them have them be recorded.
They scam me to the audience.
Yeah.
Well,
this is scary territory, buddy.
We're dealing with the dark arts.
My first ever tarot reading,
the very first card that I ever,
like, I don't even know the cards at this point.
Pulled the card, death.
That's not a bad card. But then I was told that it was not actually that bad
and you don't want to pull the tower.
But bullshit, death's a bad card.
Death's not a bad card. Death's just changed, buddy. The tower bullshit, that's a bad card. That's not a bad card.
Death's just changed.
The tower is a bad card.
For sure.
That's the one you don't want to pull.
I feel like the death card is like the ace of a blackjack card,
like the equivalent of it's very powerful or useless.
Like it could be an 11, which could be very useful to you.
As long as the death isn't pointed at you, that's a powerful card.
I mean, I don't understand if terror works, but I don't think death necessarily is a bad thing it's not it really
isn't in in the terror world oh man oh yeah i mean it's all poor shit in general isn't it none of it's
bad it's it's paper well you say that now but let's see who wins this bet yeah exactly we're
gonna once i'm the j James Randi of this podcast.
Well, I'm glad that I didn't put any magic towards you.
It would have been a waste.
It would have been a waste on you.
Andrew?
I was right all along.
Yes, Jeff?
Can I ask you a question?
Of course.
Gavin, this is not for you.
Please do not participate in this portion.
Andrew, do you know who James Randi is?
Yes.
Yes, I do.
Who is he?
He is a, I believe, he's a skeptic, right?
Generally speaking, he's somebody who has debunked several people.
He used to work on The Tonight Show a lot, where he'd come on and debunk people that
claimed that they had psychic abilities.
He's a very, I think he's also a magician, maybe?
Yeah, he was like the great Randy.
But I guess when Uri Geller came on the talk show was it Carson at the
time asked
James Randi how to mess with
Geller's like spoon betting
so he deliberately didn't have
he didn't allow the crew of
Uri Geller to get anywhere near all the props
so he just sat there
for like 20 minutes trying to bend a spoon
because he couldn't he didn't pre-bend
any of them he couldn't any of them but it somehow made
it somehow made Uri Geller even more famous
and it didn't tank his career in any way it's very
interesting I feel like there's a clip
of Randy on like a show
and it was a guy claiming that he could move
things with his mind and he's gonna like open a
phone book or like change the page of a phone book
but really he was just blowing on him
yeah he's like essentially either blowing or like directing the the wind of the room like he was
just it was clearly like he's just using the effect i think he was blowing as you said so
randy put all these fucking little pieces of paper around it so i couldn't just yes i couldn't just
move the thing it's great and the guy is like hmm no yeah i can yeah i can't do it now for some reason there's a lot of strategic
squatting by that guy in that video of like trying to get into the zone like pretending he's like
trying to get the right he's dressed like a martial artist he is yeah i forgot about that
but yeah i'm very familiar with him he's great i'd never heard of the guy that's funny that's
interesting is he british or No, he died recently.
He did. But did he die British
or American? He was American. He was American.
Oh, Canadian.
Canadian? I don't know. Maybe American.
I don't know, actually. I just know he's not British
is actually the answer to that question. I don't
know anything beyond that.
Oh, Eric's
typing Canadian-American. Well, there we go.
We're both right. the in the world of
solving things i want to talk about a thing really quickly because the the episode we recorded last
week the first one aired and which i talked about my shift key realization oh yeah i didn't know
that shift could capitalize a lot of people talking about it saying they don't believe that
that was a thing that i could do and so i i was fascinated because I genuinely didn't know that that the
shift capitalization was a thing and how is this possible and Gavin you brought up the phone the
phone has the symbol for it which I didn't really understand so I'm gonna I'll pull up tablet get
this ready so I that is only useful if you know that the shift key is supposed to capitalize, right?
So if you have no basis of that, even if the symbol is the same, that doesn't mean anything.
I always interpreted that symbol as it's an uppercase, like it's going to uppercase your letters.
So that's my phone keyboard.
It's not one to one to my real keyboard.
So there's I didn't view.
So people have said like oh it will the
symbols on the fucking keyboard how did you not make that connection I've used
Mac keyboards almost my entire life there's no symbol on the shift key that
symbols not there I don't use a PC keyboard so you say you didn't know that
was shift even though I had no idea that was so the you've been using the shift key
this entire time you just didn't understand that it was no no the only time I would use shift I
believe is control shift four where you can then search for a specific word but I'm saying people
saying like you Gavin that symbol represents shift not on any keyboard I've ever used but
you have to it's in the same place like you have to go there to hit a capital letter.
What do you mean?
Like, what's next to Z
on a keyboard?
On both keyboards?
Yeah, but it's shit.
But I had no idea
that shift capitalized.
I've only been using cap lock,
and there's not a cap lock button
on the phone keyboard,
so I interpreted the up
as the caps lock's button,
not the shift button,
because that symbol means nothing.
And I thought the upward
arrow was like, we're uppercasing
your letters. It is.
It is saying it's uppercasing your letters. Yeah.
So that's just that I just wanted to go over
how this happened. My point being is you've been uppercasing
your letters with the shift button
on your phone this entire time.
You just thought it was a caps lock button. Not knowing it was a shift.
Yes. You just thought it was a caps lock button. Okay.
I thought that that was a caps lock button because I didn't know the shift did that. You might be right. Well, I just thought it was a caps lock button. Yes, I thought that that was a caps lock button
because I didn't know the shift did that.
You might be right.
Well, I mean, to be fair, they're built into each other.
Like that is actually both keys on the phone.
Yeah, if you double tap it, it locks in.
That was what I didn't realize.
I think on the podcast, we realized that I didn't understand
that you could double tap the shift to caps lock.
And I was manually like holding it down each time I needed to the shift to caps lock. And I was manually holding it down each time
I needed to type an all caps word.
Did you know, Andrew, that if you double tap,
it locks in the caps?
No, I had no idea.
If you knew that, I was going to say,
I mean, technically you're kind of correct
because it serves the function of shift and caps lock.
And so this entire time,
if you've been using it as the caps lock,
you've been using it correctly, I guess.
So you can tell all the comment leavers that you were right and they were wrong.
It's not even a right or wrong.
It's more just how did I not make this connection before?
And I saw a lot of people bringing up the symbol being on the shift key.
And it's not for my keyboard.
I got an earful from minor league fan Jack just this morning about it.
I was going to say the same.
Yeah, he's Andrew, your biggest doubter.
He pulled me aside when I came into work yesterday.
And he was like, so that shift thing's bullshit, right?
Like, there's no way.
And I was like, look, I think it's real.
I don't.
I would have gone on.
What I'm curious about is how long it would have taken me to ever realize that.
The only reason why I figured out the shift thing,
because I was talking to someone,
and I was like, don't you hate when you cap lock and you hit the wrong,
like it's out of sequence,
so the first letter's small and all the other ones are capitalized?
And they explained to me, they said, you don't use the shift?
And I had no idea.
No fucking clue.
It's just something I didn't learn. I don't know how I didn't learn that the shift didn't i don't have an answer for that but i genuinely had no idea that if you held shift to capitalize letters well i mean
there's also a way around your problem too in what way like when you're jesus like uh when you're out
of sync like you can uh what is it it's like shift and f3 or something and it like flips the
capitalization of all the letters that's not real i think it's real is it shift f3 or something and it like flips the capitalization of all the letters that's not real
i think it's real is it shift f3 or something i used to use it in word i guess i don't i know
one keyboard shortcut and it's control shift 4 outside of that i'm never using that shift button
dude you should you should give shift a spin it is awesome i tried like once i heard i'm still
caps locking because it just feels more natural because once i heard i'm still caps locking because
it just feels more natural because i've been typing by hitting caps lock on the singular
capitalization for most of my life but i guess all my life i've been typing i'll say this you
figured out how to play how to use a video game controller wrong and you're way better than i am
at video games so i'm not gonna judge how you do it yeah that was another weird thing where i didn't
realize that there was another way to hold the controller it just seemed obvious that you would do that
yeah it blew my mind when you're like no i have both thumbs on the analog sticks
wait what he he's a claw guy he yeah i guess it's called the claw i didn't realize that until after
i i used it so you're like fingers on analog stick yeah well i guess i have my my thumbs
are on the analog stick and then i bend my finger
to cover all the buttons i guess the issue is more that jeff removes the ability to look around
like when you hit a button he uses his thumb so then you can't move your head and shooters
so i just bend my finger over to cover all the buttons so i never have to yeah that's why you're
better yeah you can avoid that actually with the uh the paddles now and the elite controllers
that's the thing i own an elite controller but that actually with the paddles now and the Elite Controllers.
That's the thing.
I own an Elite Controller,
but I never use the paddles because I already just do that with my fingers.
I don't have much of a use for the paddle system.
I don't like those paddles.
It's overcomplicated.
And if you slam your controller down,
they fly off.
That's how I feel about the Shift.
Shift doesn't go anywhere, buddy.
No, it doesn't.
It stays on. It's not like that game we have to put
the symbols in before it explodes i'd love if keyboards did that but i just the point of it's
over complicated in my head i just hit the caps lock key then i hit it again it's not a big deal
i just wanted to describe how you're just describing something more complicated because
you have to do two things that's fun who. Who doesn't like hitting a button? I love hitting a button.
I'm just, I'm going to go on record, Andrew,
and say that I believe you,
even though not many of the comment leavers and certainly not minor league Jack do.
I think that you're being totally honest,
and I can see how it would happen.
As someone who still, you know,
who still has the Roman numeral problem,
I completely and totally can see how you would
miss this little bit of information
and then you look up and it's so many years later
and you beat all of Crackdown without Autolock.
Yeah.
I didn't know about this Roman numeral
problem that you have until last week.
It's been a big deal my whole life.
But why don't you just sit down
and learn them for like an hour?
Dude, I tried.
I told you.
I don't know if I told you this or if I mentioned it.
I feel like I've talked about
the Roman numeral issue
so many times it's over-talked
across podcasts and stuff.
But I used to have a laminated card
in my wallet
that I could use as a quick reference
that somebody gave me.
I mean, really,
you only need to know
between 1 and 12.
Anything else is bullshit, really. I mean, until you you only need to know between one and 12. Then anything else is bullshit, really.
I mean, until you get to the Super Bowl.
Yeah, the Super Bowl.
Super Bowl had like L, didn't it?
That was like 50.
I bet I like college football better than pro football subconsciously because of the Super Bowl confuses me.
There's no Roman numerals in college football.
I like it's the least important detail, though,
of the Super Bowl.
Is it?
I think it is the number of which one it is.
I think it's important to know when it is.
Yeah.
Like what Super Bowl it is.
I don't feel.
Well, I guess you could make an argument for that,
but I feel it's more key.
L is not a number.
If somebody tells me. V is not a number. If somebody tells me.
V is not a number.
O is a number.
Yes.
O is a number.
If somebody says like LV1,
I won't know what that means,
but if they're like the Chiefs Patriots Super Bowl,
I will know what that is.
What annoys me about Roman numerals
is the imbalance around a letter.
So like a four will be like IV like one before the five and then you
have five and then you have five i and then also five i and then a five i i like why isn't it two
either side instead it's one one way and three the other yeah it's stupid it's pretty mental
it's it's too confusing for a fully formed adult brain to work out.
They need to get you in the third grade
when you still haven't cemented all those connections,
when you're still moldable.
Because now, I can't.
It's nonsense.
I had a friend at school who thought,
he'd only read it, he'd never seen it read aloud.
He thought the guy's name was Henryville,
but it was Henry VIII.
Oh, man.
Gavin, I ran into you.
By the way, this is getting weird.
I ran into you at the office this morning
where I was going to record my audio only podcast that I do.
That's not this one.
And then we we said hi to each other.
And then we agreed to hang out later when we both leave work to come home to record this audio only podcast.
Well, we can't record in person without Andrew because of the imbalance.
I agree with that.
And also, I don't
know, man. Even if I could
at work, I really feel in
my zone here for this podcast.
I feel safe. I've got all my
treasures around me. I've got all my
baseball cards.
I've got my egg card.
I'm ready to go.
I feel like you also just need that environment
because it's such a big part of the show
I took forever to build your moving episodes
because of it
hitting your head on the desk
it's a character
it is funny though to run into Gavin at work
and then agree to go home so we can work
you joined us while we were scooting around on our various segways and one wheels.
Two days in a row, I've come into the office now that the world is, you know, we're starting to emerge from our pandemic caves.
And two days in a row, I've been at the office and seen you at the office.
And for a brief moment, I almost felt like we worked for a real company again.
Yeah.
And then I got on my bicycle and i rode home we did a pretty good prank on the meeting you were in yesterday that's good very very can we talk yeah this hasn't come out for a while right
yeah this will be two weeks yeah over a week we were in uh we were in a meeting uh who cares it's
i like this podcast better than whatever that was anyway.
Plus, I created that other thing too, so I can call seniority and say it makes more sense
to be here. We were in
a meeting about just
bullshit admin meeting kind
of stuff, and we had minor league fan Jack
in to talk about this charity that he runs every November
that raises a bunch of money for sick kids.
And we're in there for about 30, 40 minutes.
He was supposed to come in and talk for about five minutes.
It ran about 40 minutes of just, you know.
Oh, dear.
Good Lord.
And then when he finally gets up to leave, it's a glass office on three, I guess on two
walls.
The other two walls are solid, but the glass is frosted so you kind of you kind of you you know you can see colors and shapes but
you can't really see what's going on and we were just focused on the charity and all the important
work that we were doing and uh minor league fan jack gets up and the door opens you know he opens
up the door to walk out and walks right into a giant fridge you guys had moved an entire
refrigerator perfectly in front of the door and so that he just walked right into it it was very
the fridge is on wheels yeah we're back in the mode of just like videos this is what we miss
being at home really videos just can spontaneously happen we're making a video about something else
and then i decided to try and move the fridge and then i thought it'd be a good idea to block
the door with it and uh it was very enjoyable and then we replaced the real fridge with matt
we just gave him all the stuff from the fridge and he had to give it out to people if they wanted to
drink but in that meeting gavin when we ran into each other you mentioned that you had a bunch of
stuff to talk about today really oh no i still got some stuff left over I sure got some new stuff I I had one of
those moments again where you sort of think you're in a simulation because there's just too much
coincidence happening at once you ever get those yeah Meg was streaming the other night she was
playing some Nancy Drew game and because we've been watching so much Survivor we haven't really
had a chance to
watch movies recently so i thought oh we'll watch a movie but she she had to finish that game she
wanted to like get through the whole thing and by the time she finished it was quite late so i thought
well let's watch like a you know like a 90 minute comedy or something we settled on airplane which i
hadn't seen in a long time great movie and i was talking to her before i was like oh so you actually
had to like finish that game you couldn't just like do it in segments you're like no it's better if you finish it because it's
like a murder mystery and i and she was like you know what nancy drew is i was like no i don't i
don't really know about nancy drew she's like well it's like the hardy boys i was like yeah i don't
know i just i'll be honest the only reason i've heard of that is because coolio rapped about it
in the keenan and kell and she was like you're having a laugh
you must know I was like no seriously that's the only reason
I know those names
then we're watching um Airplane
and there's that scene in the cockpit where
like everyone has a confusing name for a cockpit
so you got like Captain Over
you got someone called Roger
someone else called Victor and they're like ah what's your vector
Victor he's like ah you're over
oh what oh Roger and Roger's like, oh, what's your vector, Victor? He's like, oh, you're over. Oh, what? Oh, Roger. And Roger's like, huh?
And it's just all that confusing stuff.
And Meg's like, oh, they're doing like a funny Abbott and Costello bit.
And I was like, oh, I've never seen any of that.
She's like, oh, you know, Abbott and Costello.
And I was like, I'll be like, I'll be honest with you.
I've only heard of Abbott and costello because coolio rapped about it
in the key where he goes through double acts so then she was like all right you're having a you're
having a laugh now so then i got up the lyrics to keenan and kel and i was like oh here's the bit
and coolio goes,
this ain't the Hardy Boys or a Nancy Drew
mystery, it's just Keenan and Kel
in your vicinity, like Siegfried and
Roy or Abba and Costello,
Magic and Kareem or Penn and
Teller. And then I realized
I paused the movie and I looked at the
TV, it's
freaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
in that scene. He plays Roger Murdoch,
the guy in the cockpit.
And I was like,
why is everything in my life right now
in the Keenan and Kel song?
I'll be honest.
I was half expecting Penn Jillette
to fall through my ceiling.
I was like, what is going on?
We were both like jaw open.
Like, what is happening right now?
I'm in a simulation.
Is there a line in the Keenan and Kel rap about
how the shift key works? Because I have not
heard the rap
and that could have helped me. There is.
Were you wearing
socks at this point?
Anyway,
Airplane, still a funny movie. Airplane holds up really well i actually took millie
my daughter to see it in the theater uh i guess 2019 summer 2019 and it was well first off uh
a 15 year old kid has no frame of reference for 98 of those jokes but still very funny and the
thing that you forget about that movie uh and their style of humor is
that there's a joke every five seconds yeah it's it's like those zucker brothers movies like what
they've done all the i guess naked gun and like i think they're involved in basketball and stuff
there's just like a visual gag or a joke every six seconds they've got like a jpm uh minimum of
like 30 jokes a minute or something. It's ridiculous.
Also, I realized from
I found out afterwards that all those people
in that movie, like Lloyd Bridges and
Phelps, whatever his name
is, and Leslie
Nielsen, they'd never had
comedic roles before that movie.
They were all like really
serious actors and it reinvigorated
all of their careers as comedy dudes.
Yeah, and Nielsen ended up having,
his second act was way bigger than his first
because of all that.
I view him as a comedy actor
and I viewed Creepshow as like,
oh, that's a weird exception to the rule
where he plays like kind of a sinister,
murdering character in that,
not realizing that that's what his career was for a time.
Dude, Creepshow's a great movie.
Meteor shit. I used to say that to myself all the time meteor shit i didn't realize that airplane was a parody of airport until i watched airport i had no idea that those i just thought airplane
was a funny movie that was not spoofing anything else i thought it was a bizarre comedy it was
strange to watch airport be like oh this is, this is Airplane. So what was Zero Hour?
Is that because they made
multiple airports? Is there an airport
called Zero Hour? I don't know.
Airport was like a trilogy. Airport
is like a weirdly big movie. I've never
seen it. Zero Hour was the other movie, right?
I thought that was what Airplane was based on.
That's the one that had all the combat
stuff is based on, right? But the
main guy in Zero Hour is Ted Stryker,
who's also the main guy in Airplane.
Right.
Like that part, the Stryker stuff is based off Zero Hour,
but I think a lot of the other stuff is based off Airport.
It's like a combination.
What percentage of the f*** face?
What year did that movie...
Hold on a second.
What year did Airplane come out?
It was like 1980.
We're talking about a
movie it's before my time we're talking about a movie that was came out years and years and
years before y'all were born i was five and i'm a thousand like we probably should move on to
something this you don't think many of the people listening have listened to the 1970s airport i

Life is full of stress.
It doesn't matter who you are or what you have.
Your life is probably stressful.
I know that I, I mean, listen, you've seen the two idiots I have to work with.
If you think I'm not going through stressful times, then you're crazy.
And you may not even be feeling down and out or like straight up depressed or like you're
at a total loss.
But if your stress is high and your temper is a little shorter than usual, I know I've
experienced that, uh, on camera a few times, or even if you're starting to feel strain
in any of your relationships like
mine with Gavin and Andrew, you could probably use a chance to unload. That's where BetterHelp
comes in. It is customized online therapy that offers video, phone, and even live chat sessions
with your therapist. So you don't have to see anyone on camera if you don't want to. It's also
much more affordable than in-person therapy, and you can start communicating with your therapist God, at betterhelp.com slash face. That's B-E-T-T-E-R-H-E-L-P.com slash face.
God, I was looking at my notes
of stuff that I have to talk about today.
I don't have a lot,
and so I was going to lean on Gavin.
I do have one funny,
one very quick small story,
and then we could talk about
how I'm going to Vegas this weekend
for you, Andrew,
and so we should discuss that maybe.
Okay.
Uh, but also Andrew, and I don't know if we want to get into it.
Uh, we still have superhero, but then under it.
And while Gavin was talking, it was talking about airport.
I was reading and I just, it just hit me.
I had no idea what this note meant, but I wrote down just the word crabbing and it took
me most of this podcast to remember why i wrote that down
yeah can i guess you could please uh you were you were trying to think of other words for
theft like scrumping and you discovered that crabs when you steal a crab is crabby
no we were andrew and i were having i wouldn't say a disagreement we were having a conversation about uh i i guess like a
a strategy like a surrounding podcast like a behind the scenes work kind of strategy and we
were kind of talking through it and he made an analogy about uh how when you go crabbing you
leave your crab traps you don't put all your crab traps in the same spot you set them out uh in a
around so you have a wider you can't it's essentially casting don't put all your crab traps in the same spot. You set them out around so you have a wider,
it's essentially casting a wider net,
a wider crab net, as it were.
And I got it in my head
that I thought it would be really funny
if we all went crabbing together
because I've never been crabbing.
I don't even like crabs.
I guarantee you've never been crabbing.
Andrew and I both decided
there's no way Gavin's ever been crabbing
and he's never been crabbing.
I don't even know what it entails or what I would do with crabs if I caught him.
But the idea of going crabbing with my two best friends, an activity that none of us have done before, I'm assuming, sounds really fun to me.
So I think we should all go crabbing in Vancouver Island someday.
I think an important note, too, for our text is I made the crab netting analogy.
And then Jeffff asked have i
gone crabbing before and i replied no and i have no idea how it works that was a wild analogy for
me to make i actually don't know anything that i'm saying regarding this topic i agree we should
do this at some point we should just be a list of things we haven't done that we're not enthusiastic
about doing and then we have to do them or we have to
assign those tasks to one of us we need to order because there's a lot we have to get done at the
moment we set foot on vancouver island like we've got to get straight to work there's not enough
time to do everything you can watch the bathtub races while crabbing for the doc it's one it's
gotta be there though because we don't have crabs in austin it's not crab country you know i will
say we've already got the perfect receptacle for crabs.
Yeah?
What is it?
You made it.
You made it, Andrew.
Oh, the basket.
There you go.
Bring the basket back up.
No, that's true.
Yeah.
Could you imagine the expression on everybody's faces if they saw us lower that into the water?
Why are you dunking that tumbleweed into the water?
If you think about it, though,
if there was a Venn diagram
of like, Andrew,
you're 26 now, 27, 26?
27.
27 now.
And Gavin, you're 32?
33.
33.
33 now.
I'm trying to give you guys
each a year.
I'm sorry.
You're getting up there
and it's gross,
so I'm trying to help you out. I'm 46.'m sorry. You're getting up there and it's gross, so I'm trying to help you out.
I'm 46.
The combined amount of time is,
I don't know the math on that,
but probably close to 100 or around 100 years
of combined activities.
So the Venn diagram of things that haven't been done
by all three of us has got to be pretty small.
I don't think that's true at all.
I think it's very wide.
I think you'd be surprised at how many things
you've done that you don't realize that when you
throw out an activity, you're like,
no, I did do that once. Have you ever
skinned a rabbit?
No, but I've seen it done
in person. It's gross.
I've seen it in video games. Does that gross. I've seen it in video games.
Does that count for anything?
I watched Roger and Me.
Arthur Morgan.
Yeah, exactly.
No, I don't think, I mean, it's also wild.
You need to factor in when you're evaluating
this experience chart that you've made, Jeff.
I haven't just tried scrambled eggs or a glass of milk.
Like, my contribution to the range of experience is narrow.
It's more like two and a quarter person.
I understand that.
I understand that.
But you knew who James Randi was,
and I had no fucking clue.
So you are a keeper of knowledge and experience,
whether you realize it or not.
I'm surprised by that.
Yeah.
No, I thought, honestly, when you did that,
I thought you knew,
and you were testing me to see if I did.
I didn't know it was the reverse of you not knowing.
No, I assumed you wouldn't know who he was.
And he was like some British personality that we don't know here in America.
I didn't account for the fact that he was Canadian.
He did work a lot in the UK, though.
I watched a bunch of English shit he was in.
though i just watched a bunch of english shit he was in i i would say the if you took if you took every activity on earth and then you know applied our venn diagram of all the stuff that we've all
done i would say 99 of things have been done by none of us yes well then we better get to work
is what i'm saying we got a lot of shit to do i say we start with crabbing and then we just find
out what else naturally we don't have to go looking for it, but we find out what else fits in, like
fits in the center of that diagram that's never been touched by the three of us.
It's like a set and leave sort of thing though, right?
Yeah, but you put like on boots and then you clomp around in the mud and the water.
And then I'm, I'm assuming somebody will fall down and that'll be funny and you'll get dirty.
I think from what I feel like I've observed of crabbing,
you can just walk to the end of like a pier and drop a basket in and then
just pull it up.
You think it's that fast?
Well,
yeah,
I don't think,
well,
I think it depends.
You just wait for a bite.
You just wait for the line to move.
I think you wait like 20 minutes would be my guess.
And then you pull the basket up.
And if there are crabs,
you're like sweet.
You put them in the bucket. And if there are crabs you're like sweet you put
Them in the bucket and if they're not you just throw the thing back into the water
Oh, yes, I thought you just went up to a crab pool and just picked up a crab
I thought why didn't why you need anything else?
No, what you got those shallows where the rocks let with the little you're gonna fucking go crabbing with your hands
They got they got blades on their arms
That's a risky game if you're going into a pool they're coming from all angles They got blades on their arms. It's the most... From the back.
That's a risky game.
If you're going into a pool, they're coming from all angles.
What are you talking about?
There could be a tech in your leg.
Yeah, it's going to be like Jurassic whatever the second one was. That's where your Achilles tendon is, dude.
They're going to take you down.
You're at your most vulnerable right there.
Kevin's going to be like, this is no problem.
He's going to be like Peter Stormare in fucking Jurassic 2.
And there's going to be a million crabs on him. He's gonna be like Peter storm air and fucking dressing too And there's gonna be a million crabs on
Over a log and then just a little blood
Well, I think if we all go crabbing I bet I can pick up a crab with my bare hands faster than you can faff about with your boot in your little gears
faster than you can faff about with your boots and your little there's if all kinds of crabbing activities that we can do crap we'll have all kinds of like crabbing crabbing competitions
i remember andrew i thought you said you were gonna mosey on down to the pier one day and sit
and watch for a while and take notes or did i make that up no maybe i don't know i don't remember if
i said that via text but if crabbing was what Gavin described, if I knew nothing about it and I believe Gavin, I
would show up with like pillows duct taped
to my body and tongs on both hands.
Like I'd be, I would not be prepared
to just walk in and grab.
That's crazy. You just need gloves, I think.
I think it's just, they don't get to like jump on your
No, I need range. I need tongs.
I need tongs on both hands. I don't trust.
I don't trust this.
Alright, how big are the crabs in
your imagination right now because mine are just like the size of a fist or something yeah yeah
they're around that size too i still just don't want to deal with that i don't want it i don't
listen i cut my foot the other day i'm scared i'm scared of sharp objects was that when you went
outside to get your birthday presents no it wasn't it was inside i how did you how did you do it i
was going to bed.
It was really late.
It was dark.
And I stepped on,
there was just a piece of glass on my floor,
I guess, that I didn't know was glass.
I was moving stuff.
And I stepped on it.
I was like, ah, I stepped on something.
That's annoying.
So I went to brush it off
by rubbing it across the top of my other foot.
And I just sliced across the top of my foot.
And I was like, that didn't feel good so then I just went
to bed and was like oh man my foot's sore I think I
may have cut it or something I don't know
and I woke up and I had blood in my sheets
and like this cut across the top of my
foot so I'm very nervous of sharp things
right now Gavin I do not want to fuck
with these crabs I don't trust it
don't run a crab across your skin
no they won't so I'll be covered in pillows with my tongs they're not anywhere near me to fuck with these crabs. I don't trust it. Don't run a crab across your skin then.
No, they won't.
So I'll be covered in pillows with my tongs.
They're not going
to hear me.
Also, we can bring
those little rubber bands
that you get on like
asparagus and celery
and stuff,
and then we can snap them
around their little pinchers.
I like that idea.
Can we get rubber band guns
and try to shoot it
onto them?
Yes.
We need more range.
And what we should also do,
and where I'm going with that is,
once we've got them subdued
to the point where
they're not a danger to us
or each other,
then I think we determine
who our favorite crab each is,
and then we do a crab race.
Okay.
Like, we make a little track,
and then we put them at one end,
and then we get to the other end,
and we try to encourage our crab.
Like, come on, crabby!
Come on, old blue! You know, come on, pinchy! Or whatever. And then we see who's one end and then we get to the other end and we try to encourage our crab like come on crabby come on old blue you know come on pinchy or whatever and then we see who
who's the best crab racer in addition uh to crabbing in general there's so much crab crab
related stuff we can do are we releasing them afterwards are we gonna have no i i don't think
i could kill a crab i think we'd have to you can kill you can't kill a crab you could you could
smash its claws shut and make it race.
That wasn't my idea. I didn't put that forward.
Hey, that's calisthenics, dude.
We're not hurting the crab by making it work out.
And we're gonna take the rubber
bands off at the end.
I'm not gonna release a neutered crab back
into the wild and not be able to defend itself.
And we
could release him back into the wild, free.
Maybe one of them will have a tiny trophy it can
take with it, but yeah.
It'd be awesome to glue a little trophy to his head.
It'd be terrible.
I don't think we should glue things to crabs.
I don't think we should do anything to crabs.
I agree.
I don't want to be anywhere near this pool.
What do you mean?
Do you think on this grand scheme of things, eating them is better than putting something on them?
Like, at least in my scenario.
I would say catching and quickly dispatching a crab for food is less humiliating and harmful than gluing a crown to its head and binding its claws.
No, that's never.
Never do that.
Never bind the claws.
I don't want to glue anything,
but it's funny.
You're just like,
no, I want to do the more humane thing
of killing it and eating it.
That's what I would like to do.
Well, I mean, it happens.
It does happen.
Every day.
Chances are,
chances are that crab's killed a few things in its life.
Every 10 seconds,
a crab is killed.
I don't even know how you kill a crab.
I think you just stab it,
from my understanding.
They're pretty hard.
That's like a lobster, right?
Do you do the same thing with a crab?
Fucking look at,
Gavin is over here talking about crabs being invulnerable with claws,
and he's like,
I'm hopping in the pool.
What are you saying?
What are you talking about?
Do you think you can break a crab's nose?
The crab pool.
In your analogy, you're like, I'm going to hop into the crab pool
and just grab crabs with my hands, and on the other side of it,
I'm like, how do you kill them?
And you're like, they're fucking invulnerable.
And they have claws for hands.
Like, what are you doing?
That's reckless.
I don't understand. I don't understand
I don't understand your logic at all
the crazy thing about this
is these are all of our pre-crabbing
opinions of how it's gonna go
someday we're gonna have
a post-crabbing episode
and we'll find out
how wrong we were about all of it
we couldn't be more wrong
I feel like the real version would be very
boring of us standing on a pier.
I don't think that anything we do
will be boring, but I can't wait
for our post-Crabbin
wrap-up.
Think of all the crab-related knowledge
that we'll have in our brains after
this, and then we can move on
to the next thing, and before you know it, we will
have done that 99% of all stuff in the universe. I don't know if I've ever even had crab legs. Like I know I've
had crab and like sushi, but I don't think I've ever had crab legs or a dish like that, like a
crab based thing that wasn't sushi. Would you rather if we were to have a crab lunch of crab
legs, not the crabs that we're going to be catching, obviously, would you rather have that
lunch before we go crabbing or after we go crabbing what do you think would be psychologically better
for you yeah i think psychologically probably before to be like i think so too we we owned you
guys we got yeah not we have the advantage we're clearly in the power position top of the psych
yourself up it'll make us feel like you're dead on. We'll be in the power position.
It'll make us feel superior.
I would be afraid that if my
crab imprints on me or I imprint
on it and we develop a connection,
there'd be no way I could follow through with eating
a different crab later in the same day.
What if they could tell and they were more pissed?
That is also true.
That's also fucked up.
I didn't think about that yeah i don't know
that changes everything i didn't consider that as an angle well we're going to find out i guess
so maybe yeah i don't know maybe one of us eats crabs beforehand and the rest don't and we just
discuss how we feel about it i don't know i don't know how we measure that i don't really like crab
not not not a fan of it yeah same i think i've only eaten it once in my life i don't
remember anything about it but i feel like i've only had it on the top of a slightly fancy steak
in a restaurant once which and it didn't really it didn't really make the steak any
better to me go without you mentioned you're going to vegas jeff i had a realization i'm
gonna go buy video games for you this weekend uh well you can talk about that
i was actually i was nervous because i texted you about that as i i texted you last night about it
and you didn't reply at all and i got very i was nervous i'll be honest with you it's a it was a
whole long text about like second guessing and stuff and i already bought the tickets i've
already booked the hotel yeah i have a driver like it's too we're too far along to pull the plug now
I already have a driver.
We're too far along to pull the plug now.
In a Vegas kind of aspect,
you want to put your rookie bets down while you're there.
I'm going to put all of our rookie bets down.
Well, I'll bet for Gavin.
I have cracked my gambling code.
I figured out how to win.
I've come up with a system.
Last night, I finally figured it out.
I bet... I'm let me organize these photos so i bet on the royals game the kansas kansas royals kansas city royals and the baltimore orioles
and it was the they were going into the seventh inning i want to say and i bet that there would
be less than 6.5 runs i believe believe, was the bet. Total?
Total, yeah.
Okay.
And what was the score in the seventh inning at that point when you placed the bet?
0-0?
Yeah, so this is the score right now,
or this was the score going into the seventh.
Kansas had four runs.
Okay.
They're going into the seventh inning.
I bet that there wouldn't be more than six.
If they got seven, I would lose the bet.
I'm feeling confident about it. I'm like, ah, they
have a lead. It'll be kind of a slow game.
Everything will be fine.
Then we move into the seventh
inning, and the Kansas City Royals
score one more run. Here's what I'm noticing
about the Kansas City Royals.
They score every other
they score every odd
inning, and there's nine innings. So you have a ninth inning coming up. Yeah, score every odd inning. And there's nine innings.
So you have a ninth inning coming up.
Yeah, so every second inning.
So my bet is less than seven runs.
Is that what it says, 6.5?
Can you get a.5?
No, you can't get.5.
It's just to set the line.
So if I get six, I win.
If it goes to seven, I lose.
It's essentially the angle.
Under seven would also work.
Yes, under seven would be fine. just six which is six I don't that was a weird way of phrasing that
less than seven but no well no well yeah okay I'm saying what it doesn't matter it doesn't matter
like why is it six and off if there's only six and seven because it can't be it can't be six
and a half so if it crosses the seven if it is seven then i would win
with seven yeah if it's seven no one wins yeah it's just setting a line that it could be above
or below there has to be a point five so they're going into the eighth inning and kansas now has
five runs total i'm getting nervous so then they do nothing. Kansas gets nothing.
Can you say Kansas City, please?
Kansas City.
Okay, thank you.
What was that?
Kansas City. You just keep saying Kansas.
It's driving me crazy.
It's Kansas City.
Would it be better if I said Royals?
That's fine, too.
It's Kansas.
Kansas and Kansas City are different places.
Okay.
Royals.
The Royals needed one more run.
I was nervous.
And then I stopped watching. I
looked again. The Orioles had bases loaded, no outs. And I was like, oh, fuck. This is gonna,
as soon as I bet the under, everything shifted. The game shifted. So then I panicked bet,
and I took the Orioles to just win. I just reversed my bet, which would then mean that
for that to happen, I would need to
lose my other bet. But I am such a jinx. Whenever I bet on anything, I lose immediately. I bet on
the Red Sox losing. Ten seconds later, they home run and win the game by two. It's just a ridiculous
curse. I realized the success to me winning bets is I need to start fading myself. I will make one
bet saying an obvious thing will happen,
and then I will bet on the unlikely
thing and hope that happens.
So then we're in the eighth inning,
and in the eighth inning,
this is what happens.
As soon as I counter my bet,
the Royals score
nine runs in the
eighth inning.
You mean the Orioles do?
Yes, the Orioles.
Orioles score nine runs.
So I bet that it would be under 6.5.
Then they score nine.
I panic once it was at six or whatever.
I bet the Orioles to win to counter myself.
I'm fading myself because once I bet one way, then it will absolutely go the opposite
of whatever I said. So the trick is fading myself. I bet one way, then it will absolutely go the opposite of whatever I said.
So the trick is fading myself.
I bet one way, bet the other way.
Orioles score nine runs
and it was even a cartoonish thing.
My bad luck is so bad.
The runs came in
because the Royals tripped each other
in the outfield.
That was going to be an easy catch
in the back to end the inning.
And instead, he tripped the guy.
He sprinted over
and took him out at the knees which allowed
nine runs to happen
so was there a grand slam involved
there was there are no grand
slams but it was like three runs
scored in because he tripped his own guy
and then so the inning ended they scored
nine runs they have a nine
to what five lead at
that point I'm like this is great we're going
into the ninth inning only one inning left this is what the final score ended up being for the game
so it ended up being nine to eight for the orioles i was sweating when the royals were coming back
they scored three runs like this is un-fucking-believable. I realize that my bad luck is like a pendulum.
So I need to fade myself late, but
not too late because it goes back and
forth. Once it realizes that
I've made a counter bet, it then has to
run back to fuck me over that way.
So the key to my betting in the
future is fading against myself,
but late in the game so there isn't enough time
for it to bite me in the ass.
Or fade early enough that you can refade at the last second.
I can't triple fade.
There's no triple fade?
There's no triple fade.
That's just losing.
That'd be terrible.
I mean, I think you could,
because you're placing two bets versus one at that point,
and two outweighs one.
So it's just a matter of how much you...
That's just a bet again.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, that's true. I texting eric when it happened and when it was eight to nine with them still at bat i was like
did i double fade myself holy shit like this is i have terrible luck but yeah that's the key i'm
just gonna bet against myself going forward i've always said if somebody faded me they do great
i'm gonna be that person i'm just gonna start betting against me do you worry that you're
affecting these games i I think the players
will be pissed if they're
listening to you.
You think they're going
to be pissed?
Wait till the magic
starts happening, dude.
Yeah, this is pre-Voodoo.
That was my night.
That was ridiculous.
I've never seen nine runs
scored in an inning before,
especially that late
when down five to zero.
It was a great game. Man, the crowd must have been going ape shit. Nine in an inning before especially that late went down five to zero it's a great game
man the crowd must have been going ape shit nine in an inning i feel like nobody was in the crowd
i feel like a lot of people had left it seemed like a one-sided game
oh yeah well yeah they did nothing for seven in yeah just to see like it was locked up and then
they just scored nine in one inning but it it was more the adventure of fading against myself
is going to be a fun journey going forward.
Do you think some sort of pep talk happened after the seventh inning?
Like, what happened there?
It showed an image of Don Zimmer on the back.
Rallied everybody.
Is it Clash of the Titans or Jason and the Argonauts
that has the gods kind of puppeteering
what's happening to the mortals below?
Do you think that's what was happening
to the people in the stands of that game?
They had no idea that Andrew,
the betting baseball god,
was affecting the outcome of their game,
and they were just along for the ride?
It has happened.
I showed Eric a different bet before
that involved the Padres,
and I was like, how do you feel about this?
He's like, oh, that's an easy bet.
You should do that.
And I did it, and then they died.
They had a terrible game.
I tanked them.
I feel like I can tank teams.
I feel like I'm like a long-distance cooler.
You're making me a little nervous
about this roulette idea we had for this weekend.
I gotta be honest with you.
Was it a roulette idea or a Keno idea?
Roulette.
What an interesting...
You're getting your picks in from a different country.
That's great. I didn't realize
you wanted to do roulette. That's more of a
live game than I was... Emily had this
idea, Gavin, that while we're in Vegas
this weekend, we should go to a roulette
wheel and we should have Andrew
run his ball machine and pop
a number out and then we bet on that number.
I feel like you kind of used
up all your luck last week.
Well, I don't know.
Might be worth trying again. That'd be amazing
if that hits. I love that
nobody really commented on that
in that episode that came out. And I think it's because
people are scared that it was fake.
Like they don't want to celebrate it
out of the fear that they'll be proved wrong.
I think it's because more people
would just heard the shift thing
and thought it was insane.
They were so distracted by the goddamn shift thing,
they never heard that part of the podcast, probably.
It's just weird.
It was a weird thing that happened.
I hope it works for you.
I'm terrible with roulette, though, as established,
so you need to balance that out against the machine.
Yeah, yeah, no, I'm not anticipating winninglette though as established so you need to balance that out against the machine yeah yeah no I'm not anticipating winning but we'll see
so what's this Vegas trip
oh Andrew wants me to buy
some video games for him
that's not true necessarily I wouldn't
that's
that's technically
what's happening
I found this place that's selling these video games I want
it's in Vegas and I said I found this place that's selling these video games I want. It's in Vegas.
And I said, I'll go to Vegas.
Do you want to go?
And you were like, I can't go to Vegas right now
because I'm in Canada and it's a whole thing.
And I said, well, I'll go for you.
I'll go buy your video games for you.
That's a different thing.
That is a complete, you're right.
I'm joking, but I am going.
I was looking for an excuse to go,
and this is an excuse,
but I really do want to go to Vegas.
Yeah, okay.
I just needed one reason to go. You were my excuse but i really do want to go to vegas yeah i just i just needed
one reason to go you were my reason that's that was just an important clarification because i'd
feel terrible if i was and that was the sole motivator of going i don't know i just don't
like the idea of persuading you to do that for that reason i'm collecting some games right now
i decided i wanted to try to get some games that i really enjoyed growing up, mainly on the 360, because there's not much collecting happening
as far as like sealed 360 games go at this point.
And they have a bunch of...
And you told me something that blew my mind
and might surprise you as well, Gavin.
The Xbox 360 is going to be a classic console win?
I think 2025, right?
It's when something turns 20 20 so like four years from now
yeah it'll be retro the 360 will be in the retro category which is very weird to think
so your your cat is retro my cat is retro i have a retro cat
but then andrew he started texting me all this stuff last night he was like listen i'm starting
to read about this place it seems kind of sketchy i don't want to send you into a bad environment
and i'm like am i going to buy xbox 360 games or am i buying meth oh no it's just so i saw a video
and somebody was like oh i went game hunting in vegas this is what i found i was like oh that's
funny because of what we talked about. And I watched it
and they went to the place
and they had a really bad experience.
And my anxiety with
I want you and Emily
to have a fantastic trip.
That's way more important to me
than those games.
So I just didn't want you
to be in any form
of uncomfortable
or unpleasant experience
because of me on your trip.
That was purely an anxiety play.
I just want you and Emily to have a fantastic time.
I was playing.
I'm going to have a fantastic time.
I appreciate it.
I've already booked some stuff.
I was just going to go sometime Saturday in the afternoon,
take a cab over there with the list,
buy what you need and throw it in my hotel room and go back to go back about
my,
my sports book,
uh,
betting business,
uh,
which I'll probably spend most of the
weekend in the sports book honestly so uh it'll be a an hour and a half inconvenience and if it
goes wrong it's content and if it goes right it's less content but still content so i'm cool with
it either way it's a great week to go to vegas nfl season starts yeah i made an absurd under bet
which there's no way it will hit, but it's fun.
I took every game
going under and I
think it's ten dollars
and it cashes out at
like one hundred and
sixty thousand dollars
if it wins.
What are you gonna do
with all that money?
Yeah.
It buys a lot of
360 games.
It does.
Nothing.
There's no way it
hits.
I do like about the
under, though.
I start every game a
winner.
I start every game in
a winning position.
That's true.
It is true.
I got to go rescue Puss Puss for Henry.
He's going to growl.
Just a second.
Wait, what is Puss Puss a toy?
That's Owl Owl.
Have we heard of Puss Puss on the show before?
I'm not sure I've heard of Puss Puss yet.
I don't.
Is that a new toy?
Is that in the rotation?
All right. Crisis averted. Wait, is Puss Puss a new toy, Jeff of Puss Puss yet. I don't. Is that a new toy? Is that in the rotation? Alright, crisis averted. Wait, is Puss Puss
a new toy, Jeff? Puss Puss is the octopus.
It's been there before. We've talked about it.
Yeah, I'm familiar with the octopus. That is not a new toy.
No, Puss Puss isn't new.
I like the naming scheme of the toys.
I don't name them. They're just the names that
are given to me by Emily.
She's the clever namer.
What are the other toys named?
Oh, everything twice.
There's Puss Puss.
There's Owl Owl.
There's, I don't know, Bone Bone Dog Dog.
I made that shit up.
But it's like whatever you see, just say it twice.
And that's what it is.
But there's a different rule for Puss Puss because it's an octopus.
So it's only the back half.
It's not octopus octopus.
Yeah.
And we say we typically call it owl owl instead of owl owl because it sounds like it's getting hurt when he squeezes it.
OK.
So it's like a one syllable.
If the name goes beyond two, you're only using the back syllable.
I'm sure there's others.
I just can't think of them right now.
So Gavin's Vin Vin in this name scheme.
Vin Vin.
in this name scheme.
Vin, Vin, Vin.
Gavin is Gavin
is Gaver
and will forever be Gaver
because that's what my daughter called him
when she was like two
or three.
For the rest of my life,
he'll be Gaver in my head.
I'd rather be Gaver than Vin, Vin.
Vin, Vin is not a good nickname.
Oh my God,
you're almost going to be spit up.
That was a little school school time nickname for a while was Vinny.
Really?
Wait, you were Vinny?
I was Vinny.
Nothing to see in your little ears.
That's Vinny.
There's no way that's true.
Nobody looks at you and says you're Vinny.
That didn't happen.
Well, it was...
Guess what's about to stick?
Vinny!
Yeah, imagine the opposite of Vinny Jones.
And then there's me.
I got just called Vinny and Vincent for like a year by this one...
Just people in one class.
And then it sort of went away. I just left.
Indulge me for a second. I'd like to try something out if you guys don't mind.
Okay.
Hello and welcome
to another episode of the
F*** Face Podcast.
Thanks for coming. My name, as always, is
Jeff Ramsey. And with me, as always,
Andrew Panton and Vinny Vincent
Free. And we are here to entertain

of that. Yeah? I don't think it was.
I said, Jeff, how about this? Hello and welcome

vinny i think you gotta put i think you gotta put some flavor on it i think you gotta go welcome

motherfucking vinny free and then I think people really get excited,
bring a little bit of like the flavor to it.
Yeah.
People called you Vincent?
Yeah.
That doesn't track at all.
Yeah, Michael told me his middle name once.
I was like, oh, that was my nickname at school.
What a shitty nickname.
That's coming from somebody who had ANSAC. I'm making
fun of yours.
You don't come up with your
nickname, do you? No, I'm just saying
it's a bad draw. I'm not blaming you for it. It's more
of an observation. You got a bad draw
on Vincent and Vinny.
I don't think it's a bad... Vincent Price? That's a
cool dude. It's a very cool dude. Does it
fit you at all? I don't see you as a Vincent or
a Vinny. I like this nickname thing. What other nicknames did y'all have growing up
navigator navigator same guy they call me vinny
i love that this guy was like i'm gonna get one that sticks i'm just workshopping
but they actually stuck for like quite a long time He used to call me Gavnav, and then it just became Nav.
Gavnav!
Gavnav is really good!
So Vinny, Vincent, Gavnav, and Ansack.
Oh my god, it's like being in German class again.
Vinny, Vincent, Gavnav, and Ansack.
Did Eric or Nick have any nicknames growing up?
No, nothing.
Like, my name doesn't really lend itself to anything like that, but I also did.
To be fair, I didn't think Gavin's did either, but here we are.
Nick said it's fucking...
He sounds like he loves dog toys.
No, Gavnav.
Can we make Gavnav dog toys?
Oh, that's great.
What a great nickname.
Nicknames.
So did you not have anything good?
Either of you.
No.
Me?
Andrew had Anzac.
Yeah, I didn't have the fucking naming genius in my school with me.
I didn't have the fucking Akinator or whatever just summoning names,
throwing things out there,
seeing what will stick.
When I was younger, they called me
Jeffro.
Jeffro would be pretty good.
Like Jethro,
but Jeffro.
When I moved to Austin
at the tech company where we started
the day job, they called me
G-Funk, which I hated.
It's your username on the
website. I know. I hate it.
I don't know why I ever didn't hate it, but I definitely
hate now.
Then you got Raymond Sommar.
Yeah, exactly. And Raymond Sommar.
Your birth name. Yeah.
I would say the shittiest nickname I had is Andrew Pitt.
Both names.
Sure.
Yeah.
That's a bad nickname.
Thanks for listening to another episode of...
Are we already done?
...starring Jeff Ramsey, Andrew Pitt,
and Vinny Vincent Navdab.
Nav Nav.
Vin Vin.
We still didn't talk
about superheroes.
I didn't.
Oh,
remind me.
Remind me next week
to tell you guys
my,
my fart story.
Okay,
we got.
We might as well
just ask you
every week.
Yeah,
this one's not me.
This is Emily though.
Oh,
I'm sorry to my fart story
or out of time.
Out of time next week.
We'll push you to the next show.
You got to leave them on a cliffhanger.
We do.
They're going to be like, I got to know the fart story.
I can't believe I have to wait another week to hear another fart story.
Last week, I crammed research for the superhero topic.
I felt like it made me go back to a child.
I realized nothing has changed.
We had a three-week break.
I didn't do any of the prep for it until the night before.
Yeah, I didn't do my homework until the night before,
and I'm nervously trying to get everything done,
and we haven't talked about it in three weeks or whatever since we came back.
The best part about that is that my plan is to copy off your work.
That is exactly like I should.
All right. That is exactly like I supposed to. Alright.
Yeah, I'll see you guys next week.
Bye-bye.
Bye now.
Oh, shit.
Don't forget to rate and like and stuff.
Fucking stars.
Everywhere stars.
Don't forget the stars.
Nick, you gotta leave in the pause there.
Yes.
That was a real-time pause.
That was great.
