Hello and welcome to another episode of the regulation podcast that parts not funny everything that comes after it will be though This is episode 35. My name is Jeff Ramsey with me as always Andrew Pint and Gavin free Nick Schwartz, Eric Badour Okay, Gavin you be funny now go. I was just blown away that Andrew can use the phrase, of course Of course because nothing's of course with you ever what do you mean? Of course, of course, because nothing's of course with you ever. What do you mean? Nothing's as it seems. There's no, of course, that is the exterior perspective. What's the interior and what's the interior perspective?

To me, it makes sense. It's, of course, to the people around on the outside. It doesn't make sense, but I live in a world It's of course to to the people around on the outside. It doesn't make sense. But I live in a world of course. But everyone. So I'm saying is me saying, of course, it makes sense to me. But anything that you said makes sense to you. Yeah, that's my point.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It works for me. I don't think that's always the case. I say stuff that doesn't make sense to me constantly. Yeah, that's fair. I do confuse myself a lot. That is also true. You do too. The amount of times that you say something, you go, what?

Doesn't come out right. Also you just didn't even really poke that hard and Andrew just started agreeing with you where everything he says to himself makes sense. And then you went, well, I don't do that. And he went, yeah, yeah. Okay. So what is this? Well, it makes sense. I think when I'm saying it and then there's time for reflection and review. Like, do you have people in your family or in your life who never understand what you're on about? No.

Never understand what you're on about. No. So you're saying. Are we all are we all excluded from this part of the conversation? Are you yourself? You're like a genetic thing where you're understood by family like it was like a nature nurture situation. Sort of like all like all the Scooby Do family members and all understand each other in some innate way.

I'm pretty sure I got popcorn seeds from my family. I'm almost 95 percent sure. I haven't tested this yet. I need to. Well, why don't you text a family member about corn? OK.

Text. Boo up the soy phone. Family member about corn. As one does. I just want to be as vague as possible with instructions to see how this comes out. Oh, yeah. Good idea. Okay. I'm sending a text right now. That is, what are those things called

in a microwavable popcorn bag that don't pop? And you think they're gonna say popcorn seeds? Yeah, I do. That's awesome. That's awesome, that's great I hope I hope they do say seeds God me too right now I'm hoping for seeds. What are the things called in a microwavable popcorn bag that don't pop? Could you imagine Gavin could you imagine getting that text

from anyone in your family? Definitely not. Actually, I have a pretty good story from my mom. Recently, we're talking about gift cards. Last episode, it was my mom's birthday a few days ago on the 15th. And oh, we're getting a response. We're just a text bubble going. OK, well, listen, I was just, oh, boy.

Colonel's was the reply. That's really unfortunate. I don't know where I got seeds. Try. You can type that to a few people and see if you get three colonels back. Yeah, OK. Keep texting. He he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he And they also have snacks and like drinks and stuff in this place. And they happen to have 12 bottles, 12, one liter bottles of peri. On sale for like $10. She loves water. She loves sparkling water. And so she bought these and. The place where she bought them from their carts,

don't let you leave the store with them. They have breaks that get triggered if you try to leave the store. Is that real? Yeah, we have those in Austin, dude. I saw the sign for the AGB. I even took a picture of it. I was like, that's not real. Is that real? It's 100 percent fucking real. It's annoying.

They just it's it's like the theft, essentially like scanner thing, I believe. It just there's a line that you cross and it like kicks pieces down that essentially work like brakes on the wheels. It's like you put those little knobs down in your room and then a Roomba knows not to go past it. Oh, yeah. Oh, look, yeah, look, here's the picture I took. Oh, let me see it.

Wow, that's crazy, because I looked at that and I was like, oh, what a load of bullshit that is. Warning. Wow, that's crazy because I looked at that and I was like, well, that a bullshit that is warning. Attention shoppers shopping cart wheels may lock unexpectedly for move from the store. Shopping cart wheels will lock if taken beyond the parking lot. So at least they give the parking lot. This is if you try to leave the store, they're going to lock on you. So she bought three gallons of Perrier essentially for like $10, which is this great sale. And I called her because it was her birthday to wish her happy birthday.

I was like, Hey, happy birthday. How's your day going? And she sounded terrible and was like, Oh, it's not. It's not going good right now. I'm not having a good time. And I'm like, what's going on? And she explained this great periadeal that she had. The problem was she couldn't remember where she parked. So she had just spent the past like 15 minutes

walking around the parking lot with three gallons of periade, but she did not anticipate she went there to buy two things that were light. And now she's just hauling this peri a around and She was like, oh, it's real bad. I can't find the car. I've been what I've been going for 15 minutes I'm gonna be I might have to start losing some of this peri a it's getting too heavy Well, I she's got to start drinking it. I just us getting dropping the cargo essentially As she tries to find the car. And so I said, okay, well, that's,

I'm so sorry you're going through that. Why don't you call me back whenever you find the vehicle? And that was the plan. And then as each, I don't know, every five minutes, I would feel progressively worse as we reached 10 minutes and then 20 minutes and then 30 minutes. Well, it sounds like you gave her no advice on how to find the car. I gave the only advice I could, which was,

have you tried using the key to like create a beeping noise? Yeah. Follow the alarm off or something. Yeah. That's so I'd, I suggest and then she said she had still couldn't find it about 40 minutes minutes pass and then I finally get a call back and she had to lose the like a movie in which the like plane has too much weight in it. She opened up after we called she opened up the bag of perrier and started putting bottles down as just she can't carry the weight anymore, but she wants to keep moving. Like dealing with ballast. Exactly. So by the time she found the car, she had emptied half the bag.

So she had six bottles of perrier just throughout the parking lot. She got it. So she gets to the car. She puts the six remaining that are still in the bag in the car, grabs a bag from the car and then back tracks and repicks up the six bottles that she had previously left. Recovered them. Absolute nightmare. I just kind of mentioned being the security guard looking at the cameras. She gets them all back. She gets home.

She takes half of them. She takes the ones that she carried in the cameras. She gets the ball back. She gets home. She takes half of them. She takes the ones that she carried in the bag into the house with everything exhausted, just done with the day. Next day, she goes out. She because of, I guess, all of the exhaustion and just busyness of the day, she forgot to lock her car at night and somebody has stolen the other six bottles of Perrier from her vehicle that she left.

Who steals Perrier? It was in a bag, I guess, with a few other things. And somebody in, I'm guessing, the apartment parking, just saw it and opened the door and then just walked out with it. So they were just trying doors. I would assume so. Maybe they saw like a large bag that appeared like it had a bunch of stuff in it. So then they just tried it and it worked.

But I've seen dudes walk through parking lot and just trying doors before. That wouldn't surprise me. But yeah, all of that work. Having to lose the cargo, recover the work, having to lose the cargo, recover the cargo just to lose the cargo again from the car. So down six Perry's just an absolute nightmare. Definitely related. Can we buy six new ones? I don't think so.

I don't think she wants to think about Perry for a while. I'll text. I'll say, what about popcorn seeds? That's leading the witness. So you have to lead. You're like, I got it from these people. And then when they said colonels, you're like, hang on, I have to remind them of popcorn seeds.

But what if you said it this way? Yeah. Hey, can you just text me about popcorn seeds real quick? I swear I listen. I keep saying, listen, I need to stop that. I don't know what's going on today. It's it's really it's a reflective. I I keep thinking about popcorn seeds because I don't feel like I created that. I had a moment where I thought maybe it's a Canadian thing

and so I looked it up and I could not find a use of popcorn seeds anywhere. So I don't think it is. I don't know where that came from. But it is a microwave. I feel like we should sell a shirt that just says popcorn seeds. It doesn't even make sense.

Well, I mean, it's the seed of the poplar seeds, right? The corn of seed seed corn. The corn of seed. Oh, my God. I had a random thought that I'd like to share with you guys that maybe you could help me fill this out a little bit. You make a board. I haven't made a board yet for this. I was thinking about movies

and how they largely take place in like New York or L.A. And then it'll be like Vancouver as New York. But it's like a lot of movies take place in L.A. or New York. Do you think we could find a theatrical like a large release, not like some indie movie, but like a big theatrical release where the story took place in each state. Like, could we represent each state across movies? Now you're saying like filmed there or.

No, I'm saying that they declare that they are from there. Yeah, like about there. OK. I feel there. I feel like I've seen infographics on Reddit showing that like most popular movie about each state. So I would assume you could do it. Yeah. Is there certain states that I just feel like are not represented at all? Well, like Wyoming. Yeah.

Vermont. Like they're just if you're going to make a map of the US, the most famous movie set. Oh, this is great. I just pulled that up. I beat you. There's some big movies. You it took you time to open your eyes and start looking. So I did. I had to open my way in all of California.

The most famous movie is Clueless. Yeah, some of these words of my mouth. The hangover representing Nevada is just a goddamn shame. But I would probably put casino. Absolutely. Yeah, I would, too. I would put National Lampoon's Vegas vacation over the hangar. Well, maybe we should create our own list. Yeah, I think that's sort of what I'm saying.

Yeah, that's it. Like the regulation movie map. Yeah, because Gavin, you've you've almost visited every stater. That's like sort of a side goal of like as you've already been to so many. I've done like 30 something. Yeah. The visual equivalent of that. The ability to see stories set in all these places Okay, Jeff has another one pulp fiction for California

casino for 5050 really did psycho take place in Arizona And no idea I Haven't heard of a lot of these. Mr. Deeds Goes to Town. What have you not heard of? Uh, Mr. Deeds Goes to Town. Give me the list of things you haven't heard of now. Bringing up Baby.

Uh, why does Foggo get two states? I was about to say the same thing. Yeah. I think it's because the movie doesn't take place in Fargo. The only time he's in Fargo is when he goes to hire the dudes. He drives to Fargo to see them. The whole, yeah, the whole rest of the movie

takes place in like somewhere else. They just didn't want to call it the name of the place because Fargo was a better name. I just saw a TikTok about this, which means it's probably not true. But yeah, no, I think, assuming I'm wrong, I think the only scene in the film that takes place in Fargo is when he hires Peter Stormare and Steve Buscemi.

That's fascinating. Because I think of that as the Fargo movie. Well, it's in the name. It is, based on a true story. But yeah, a lot of these are very old, but famous films. Andrew, Mr. Deeds Goes to Town is like from the 1940s, probably bringing up babies, a huge famous film from, I want to say maybe the 50s.

Okay. I've never heard of Hatchie, a Dog's Tale, but I think of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, famous movie, Jimmy Stewart, I believe. Now, do you tail, but I think I've Mr. Smith goes to Washington famous movie Jimmy Stewart I believe now do you think the Adam Sandler film mr. Deeds has any connection to mr. Deeds ghost town spiritual successor? It's awesome. Yeah it Speaking of old movies. I was thinking about

You know GTA 5 biggest game ever huge like the concept of playing a game and not being aware of GTA five is just sort of like an impossible thing to think about. What do you mean by biggest game ever? Oh, just like it feels like culturally, it's it's massive. Maybe not ever. That's probably not accurate. It's probably Minecraft or Fortnite or Tetris, probably, I believe. You think more people play Tetris, the GTA five?

Yeah, played. Yes. Sales now. They have they have shark cards for Tetris or no. If you guys want to know the list, I have it. It's number one is Tetris with five hundred and twenty million sales. Number two is Minecraft with three hundred million sales. Number three is Grand Theft Auto five with and twenty million sales. Number two is Minecraft with three hundred million sales. Number three is Grand Theft Auto five with two hundred million sales. Tetris has sold more than almost three times what Grand Theft Auto was sold. But wouldn't people would not be people buying multiple copies of Tetris?

Well, I assume it's multiple copies of GTA five. How many copies of GTA five do you own? Because I own three. That's a fair point. I didn't even think about, yeah, console generational re-buying. I was thinking more shark hearts. What's the Tetris that they're talking about? Is it anything called Tetris? Because there's only one thing called GTA 5. Even though it's been re-released across consoles, Tetris has like, there's Game Boy Tetris,

but then there's like Tetris Worlds and all like that stuff. I'm assuming they're just calling to like the base game Tetris. I also don't know why we're arguing about this. Tetris is sold five hundred and twenty million copies. I thought it was huge. Tetris has also had a huge head start. It's been around a lot longer. I'm just saying culturally, it is the highest selling video game of all time and nothing comes close to Tetris with the in the context that I was thinking about. And we've all been, you know, we're all close to the beginning of video games.

Some of us were around for when they first started. Listen, some of us that was very polite of you. Thanks, man. Well, I'm 94. So it's like I miss Nintendo consoles, but I'm I'm within reach. Like that stuff is accessible to me. I was using GTA five because when I think of what game companies are probably going to exist for the foreseeable future, I feel like Rockstar is a pretty safe bet that they'll be around.

And in the world of let's say, let's go to like 2060 and we're at GTA seven because it takes a while. When we look back on GTA five, first of all, do you think GTA five will even be like a consideration? In the future like that, the what? For like the way that the average consumer now thinks about a movie in the 1930s, like it's just not even even though they were incredibly influential at the time.

There's just no thought of what was popular or relevant at that time period. Do you think that in like 2060, there will be any awareness of GTA 5 or is it just purely a? I mean, I think there'll be an awareness of GTA, you know, but GTA 5 itself I don't I mean I think they've already the GTA that's alive and Successful and thriving right now. They don't even really call GTA 5 when they talk about it called GTA online You know, I think they're already trying to distance themselves from the name and make online GTA, which is what people, I think, really give a shit about, its own thing. You know what I mean?

Mm-hmm. Like, I think that Rockstar themselves are trying to draw a line between the two and make GTA Online, like, the thing that people remember less so GTA 5. That's fair. I mean, they sell it individually. And it comes out after the narrative part, typically, at least with both Red Dead and GTA five in the story. I was just thinking about because video games aren't old enough to have that full arc.

And it'd be funny to have. Like Rockstar is one of the publishers of L.A. Noir. And that is like such a stylized, like old fashioned game to go back to GTA five in the future and have the same feeling like would a current day person in 2060 look at GTA five the same way that we look at L.A. Noir now? Well, like it like it's a period piece.

Yes. Like the the to me, it's interesting thinking about how things will flip to a period piece. I mean, even GTA four you play now and it's like the old T9 phone and you've got to go to an Internet cafe and stuff. I mean, I think you're I think 2060 is too far out. I think that it'll be weird and novel and like like us playing L.A. Noire in like 2040. Really? I mean, look how fast technology is going, you know?

Oh, super fast. Yeah, it's just it's a I mean, that's 2040 is 20. Let's say 2044. That's 20 years from now. 20 years ago, we didn't have social media. I don't know if I had a cell phone 20 years ago. Yeah, I did. I got one when I was 25. So I just had one. You know what 20 years ago, we didn't have social media. I don't know if I had a cell phone 20 years ago. Yeah, I did. I got one when I was 25. So I just had one. You know what I mean? Like a lot can happen in a few years. A lot of a whole hell of a lot is going to happen in the next 40 something years.

That's a very good point. I just wonder if we've hit. An area in which it's less about new tech and more like efficiency and building more off of what's established, as opposed to. The idea of like a touch phone, a touch screen phone. It would be interesting to see if one of these online services went on so long that they they updated all the technology in it. I mean, I wonder if what our relationship with video games will be like in 2060, you know like

At what point are we playing it in our brains? And it's just on a chip, you know And then you know and then I can close my eyes while I'm recording the podcast and play GTA 5 My hands are free. It is hard to imagine a while I'm talking to you guys and my hands are free. It is hard to imagine a world without controllers because we've tried so hard to get away from them. And every attempt has been terrible. Like the premise of that, there would be a different.

And I imagine at the time, I imagine whatever the current tech is, people had a hard time imagining the evolution of it. So even though I can't really comprehend a world in which controllers would be a secondary way or like a non-preferred usage, it'll be fascinating to see all that stuff evolves. Yeah, I think it really will be fascinating. And I living long enough now that you can kind of go that I've kind of gone through a couple of seen and experienced a couple of generational cycles the crazy thing is it's like is it will never it never looks or behaves or

Is released anywhere near to the way your mind envisioned it? we talked about this with cord cutting right and mind envisioned it. We talk about this with cord cutting, right, and about how like we used to bitch about cable and this come up a lot lately. And the future was going to be decentralized television where we could a la carte what we want, because why the fuck am I paying for USB and if I don't like sports, right? And then here we are 20 years later and we have it and it's a

big steaming pile of shit and it doesn't look anything like we envisioned it looking. Yet we're stuck with it. You know what I mean? So it's just like, it's so hard to project. Yeah. What things are going to look like because, well, in a lot of situations, because after it's discovered or created, it's then built by the lowest bidder. And so it barely works anyway. I just think about how annoying games are going to be like they're already.

You've already got to like, keep accepting a EULA every time they update it. And sometimes the playlist that you like is just gone for some reason. I think that's all going to get way worse. I can see that. People are like, Oh, I remember Warzone. You'd be like, which? Yeah, but we've seen stuff get worse and better.

Like we've bitched a lot about Call of Duty in the past and how complicated it is to get into a game of Call of Duty. But I got to be honest, Black Ops 6 is pretty great and I have no issues with the menus in Black Ops 6. Like it's like they've definitely made that easier again. And so who knows? Maybe maybe some of the future can be good. Oh, for sure. And it'll be interesting to see the impact of accessibility. Hey, it's Eric.

what was the highest grossing film in 1930? And I Googled it and I learned it's a movie called Whoopie. And it is a Western musical. And I had never heard of it and I learned it's a movie called Whoopi. And it is a Western musical. And I had never heard of it, never considered it. I was like, whoop, that's a fucking ridiculous title. Looked into it and I immediately had the ability to watch it. And I thought, that's so cool. I had it was through.

It was streaming on Amazon Prime. I have Amazon Prime. So I watched like the first 10 minutes of Whoopi. Yeah, I saw the poster and went, Oh, boy. This is probably going to be incredibly insensitive in countless ways, a product of the 1930s. So far, it's just a bunch of people

yelling whoopie, and it seems fine. But it's just so cool that we live in a time in which you can get an immediate answer to something like that and then not only learn about it, but have the ability to watch it. It's crazy. I always think about that when I find old film or like a really old picture of one of my great grandparents or a grandparent and you look at it and you think, Oh, well, I wonder what he was like trying to get little stories. But for us, in 80 years, people could see me get my anus waxed on the internet. And I just think it's a bit of a different vibe. Like, do I want my descendants

watching my anus get waxed? It might be a little late to be having this conversation with yourself, my man. Yeah, I mean, that's the career path I took. Also, who knows what survives? I mean, honestly, like, Rooster Teeth turned off, you know, all that stuff. The Internet Archive goes away if that, if that, what is it, the Archive of Pimps goes away. Then that stuff just doesn't exist anymore unless you have it on your computer somewhere. So who... Yeah, but I think enough people have enough versions of it. of pimps goes away, then that stuff just doesn't exist anymore unless you have it on your computer somewhere.

So who? Yeah, but I think enough people have enough versions of it. Like people can track down an ancestral painting, which there's one of, and they still manage to find them. I feel like- Yeah, except that there's a subreddit that I follow called Lost Media where people are constantly looking for stuff that's been disappeared from the internet, you know? I think it's easier for stuff to go away than you think it is.

Who knows how much lost media I may have had on a computer that just died today? from the Internet, you know, it's I think it's easier for stuff to go away than you think it is. Yeah, I know. Who knows how much lost media I may have had on a computer that just died today, you know, sure, holding on to. And then that doesn't even take into account the stuff that's still around, but in like an edited form, like people like people patch movies and TV shows constantly. We just don't notice. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, that's a great. That's a great point. That would be a really interesting and terrifying service of the future.

Of you know how there's like ancestry dot com now where like you can look at your family tree visually. The premise of having like a family trees digital library, like you could pay to find like all of the YouTube accounts or social media profiles, whatever is existing to find like all of the YouTube accounts or social media profiles. Whatever is existing to see those feeds of your relatives that you never met would be insane. Also like strangely fascinating, I guess, to see.

What if you went back far enough and your earliest ancestor was missing Link do? Oh, damn. I'd hope that Eric would get a tattoo of them. Yeah. Yeah. If that was my like, like real old relative, Missing Link Doo, big back piece. I got it. It's their YouTube channels. Tune in to Missing Link Doo. We're going to try some chips and eat some chips today.

These are the new Pringles pops. So they go, he figured it out. Hey, did Mr. Did Mr. Beast rent the pyramids? Is that something we can do? Can we rent the pyramids? I don't know what you're talking about. What? What? I don't know what it means to rent the pyramids to like.

You could have them for like like a movie theater to go watch Mortal Kombat. Like you can just like rent the pyramids because you can't you can't like climb them or anything. You just look at them, right? I guess you can go into them. Beats me. It just feels weird to rent a thing that is visual and massive. Like what if somebody were to look at the pyramids? Are they not allowed to right now?

Because he's Mr. Beast has rented them. How does that work? What are you reading? They probably don't have access to him, maybe. Maybe he wants to tent them like they do with a house gang. Oh, like fumigate it. Yeah. You make the three pyramids. That's cool. And the scarabs are out of control in this thing.

We got to. Oh, my God. I was afraid of the scarabs are out of control in this thing. We got to. Oh, my God. I was afraid of the scarabs. That was from the movie movie. Oh, my God. Oh. I just got to the pyramids in Indiana Jones. Pretty cool. I'm I'm almost there, I think. I think I'm about to be at the pyramids. It's just let me know when you reach.

Like a very water heavy area. Okay, I'm at the point now where I'm stopping the zeppelin from leaving or I jumped on the zeppelin or maybe I took the zeppelin to Giza and now I don't remember. I'm doing some shit under a pyramid. Last episode you talked about a film having like big gaps between Shots because of Mission Impossible. Do you think we should do a let's play series where we play a video game? But do one level every year Yes, what game ooh Blasso

Okay that was That was the reverse of what typically happens. That was Nick speaking an idea in the Gavin's brain as opposed to Nick copying whatever you just siren. Yeah. Yeah. You guys are connected. One. I which Halo Halo one is that we said, Nick.

Well, it has to be a full play one. Oh, yeah. I don't mind watching. I don't mind. I don't. I don't like watching Andrew I don't mind not playing the last set. I don't mind watching. Andrew's the best Halo player here. Everyone just kept saying yes, and now it's come down to, all right, what are we playing? And it's a bunch of people going, I don't want to play, I don't want to play.

I don't really understand any of those guys. I mean, I'll fucking play it. I just yelled at him. If two people want to play, we should do Halo 2, because that's the hardest. Okay, yeah. That can be what you and Nick do. Oh shit, Nick. Now we figured it out.

We figured out what the Gavin and Nick show is. We play one level. Oh, there's 15 levels, I think. Well, you got to... Time to lock in. Will be done by 2039. The first level of Halo 2, Lasso, is so hard. Just in time to reflect on GTA 5 and if it feels like

It's if you start now you can like sort of mirror like one-to-one one Soto's contract with Do we want to put them out each year or wait until we're finished to put them out I Think each year. Yeah, I think each year we got to keep the audience coming back Yeah, yeah, yeah on cuz you don't finished to put them out. I think each year. Yeah, I think each year. We gotta keep the audience coming back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cause you don't wanna burn them. You don't wanna be in year seven and people go like, man, I can't wait until they do that thing.

And it's like, oh, we forgot about that forever ago. You gotta do it one a year so everyone knows you're locked in. Yeah, plus you don't wanna burn a decade and a half sort of content in one year. That'd be ridiculous. Yeah, that would suck. You could start doing it now. Like right before, it's worth of content in one year. That would be ridiculous. Yeah, that would suck. You could start doing it now.

Like right before, it's almost the end of the year. I think we should. I think we should have an agreement where if one of us dies before we finish, the other person has to keep going. Wow. Can they find a replacement? Uh. I mean, can't one of us fill in if Nick or you die?

Went to Nick first. That was pretty interesting. Yeah, I think one of one of this crew can fill in. Okay. I mean I went to Nick first because I was talking to Gavin. If I was talking to Nick, I would have gone to Gavin first. You don't want to project the person you're

talking to is going to die first. I want to do this and I really want to do I keep thinking about the idea of a month long game of Mario Party. I want to do that so bad. Oh, yeah. The one turn every day. One turn every day. We'll have to find a month where everybody's available for the month

and record one turn a day. I just want it to be a constant. I want it to be doing weekends. I would do it just for one. You got to do weekends. It's one turn. Otherwise, it's not going to be like seven minutes. I'll do it.

We just need to find a month where it works. What's the most turns we can have? 30? I think it's 30. Yeah. Yeah. That seems that seems right to me. So is that a video every day or is it one video? No. Oh, I think I think it's it should be one video. Yeah, one video. You think it's one video?

I mean, it's great either way. It's great. Burn it through a month's worth of should be one video. Yeah, one video. You think it's one video? I mean, it's great either way. It's great. Burn it through a month's worth of content for one video. It could also be a video a day on the on the subreddit or on the subreddit on the Patreon. And then we can compile it all and put it together and recent to the public later. It'd just be an editing thing of like shooting

and then uploading that like a one day turnaround. But I guess it's just seven minutes. And what is the next month with 30 days? Hold on. February. No, January, February, March, April, I think. OK. Right. Because you go by my big, not my little knuckle, big knuckle, little knuckle. Yeah. I just think it would be so fun to like to know that little knuckle. Yeah, it's April. You're right. I just think it would be so fun to like to know that

to go to sleep, knowing that Gavin is three spaces away from a stealer star, from being able to steal something. You could do it in March days one through 30. And then on day 31, everyone knows the last day of March is when it comes out. Interesting. Oh, it'd be easy because you'd be building the file as you go. Right. And you only need one perspective and then everyone's audio. Yeah, it's single screen. Mm hmm. I'm happy with March or April.

Yeah, I just think. Let's do it. I think just even the podcast conversations around the idea of just having an ongoing game, I think is fun. I think it's such a good idea, Andrew, that after we're done, we'll want to do it again immediately and we'll start searching for the next game to do it in. I think it might put us in a whole new paranoid era. I think he could be right.

We're going to be we're definitely going to be sleeping on some grievances from day to day. There should be a price. There should be a prize. There should be a 30 day like you survived the Mario Party. Hundred dollar gift certificate. I put it on our calendar for February 28th to prepare for Mario Party Month, which would be how many times do you think Jeff will drop out of the game? Oh, zero, zero, because I want zero because I bought a new one a new one and I never even set up the wi fi on it and I tested it and I played for hours and hours and hours and I've had no issues.

That's going to be fine. What about your power? Well, I don't know. Thank you. I mean, what about your power, Nick? What about Eric's power? I'm not the only one with power problems. Have you guys seen Jeff's hardwire solution? No? Okay. I took it down for the Christmas party. Is there a picture of it? No, fuck no.

Unless Eric took one. I did not take one. Jeff doesn't attempt to run the cable out of the way. It just goes through the middle of the room at about waist height Goes over the stairs and down the stairs and then through the living room It is meant to be a tripping hazard 100%. I have a question. Why not do it on the outside? Of the house?

Yeah. It's not my house, dude. I'm not going to drill a hole from the inside of this house to the outside of the house. No, I just like put it out the window. Like 200 feet of cable. Put it out the window, run it up the side, put it back in the other window. I don't think these windows open in this room Once again not my house

You don't have to own the house to open the window. I don't think this window opens It's not an open window and then also fuck you. How about that? All you need to know is that I'm hardwired in. Don't worry about how I'm hardwired in. I'm hardwired in. That's all you need to be concerned about. The how is where the comedy is. I don't want to drive, I don't have to have a fucking 350-foot ethernet cable

to string it around the outside of this goddamn house to the other side of the house. That's fine. I, no, what's fine is stepping over the cable. That's totally fine. I have no issue doing that stepping over the cable. That's totally fine. I have no issue doing that. It's my house. I live here. It doesn't bother me.

Doesn't bother the dog. The dog is the thing I'm worried about the most. The dog at any moment is taking that whole setup down. No, he's very careful. He's very careful. No, he's not. We've been around him. He pisses when he gets excited and he's a bowling ball that runs into Gavin.

But he's lower than the cable. Well, except for my office. But he's not in my office. Okay, see that's what he did. Guys, it was like, it was shocking to me when I saw it. I just thought it would have been easier to be like, Oh, I'm about to film. Let me just pop the window open, grab the end of the cable. Oh, I'm finished. Let's chuck it back out of the second floor of my house.

Yeah, you just have it on like a hook or something out there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, OK. Well, I love these solutions for you. If you find yourself in a similar situation to the situation that I'm in, I think you're great for you. If you find yourself in a similar situation to the situation that I'm in, I think you're fucking set because you've got a lot of options to make you happy. I went with the option that makes me the happiest and I'm pretty comfortable with that option. I thought the whole point was that Emily didn't like it.

Yeah, there's a lot of stuff that people don't, not everybody likes everything all the time. People get the idea that we're supposed to be happy 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We're not. Happiness is one of the emotions, but they're all valid emotions. If Emily's feeling some other kind of way about this cable, it's probably good that she has a little bit of that other emotion in her life because too much happiness isn't good for anybody. Then you don't appreciate anything.

Andrew always yells at me when I'm like, oh, this thing's wrong and I have no solution. So 2025, I'm trying to be more of a solution. You're doing great. I think you offered some some fantastic solutions. I agree with you, you little dickheads. I said your solutions are awesome for you. I'm just going to go with the solution that works the best for Jeff, because unfortunately, no matter what I do about it, no matter what I do about it, 49 years into it, I still gotta get up and go to bed with Jeff every fucking day, day in, day out. I get, you guys get an hour of it here,

you get three hours of it there, maybe we hang out on a Sunday night at a party, and then you go back to your lives. There's no leaving Jeff for Jeff. I'm here always in this body, in this brain, dealing with these thoughts and emotions and this nonsense. And so I can only do what's best for that fucking asshole, which seems to be the situation that we have.

Do you ever dream that you're someone else? Yeah, but not when I'm asleep. Usually just when I'm awake. You're just fantasizing about like, man, I bet this other guy's a doctor. He's got cables that run the right way in his house. See that some guy walking on the street. I'm like, he's fucking he that dude, he doesn't have that.

That dude doesn't have problems like I got. I wish I was that guy. Yeah. You still getting needles to the face or your jaw? I didn't get any needles this week. I just got some Adjustments and oh god. What does that mean? What does adjustments mean? Just like neck pops and cracks and Yeah, all that stuff. Was it was any of it for TMJ? It's all for TMJ I think and and just for my dog shit posture

I mean, I'm fucking incredibly sore. I can barely walk. This kind of like Gavin offering solutions for your wire. Your solutions for your jaw. I'm going to break you in half. It's like it's I feel better in the sense that I feel like shit physically.

And I'm told that's some kind of progress so you know this is the most youth thing I've ever heard I don't know really what's wrong with me. It might be mental so if I can make it physical at least it Is nice to feel like you're doing work the current the current yeah, it's nice to feel like you're doing work the current the current. Yeah, it's nice to feel like you're doing work I had a cat scan. I went to see I saw a couple different doctors the current Thought is that it's either TMJ which is onset by extreme stress Don't know where that could come from Or the hardware from my previous surgery might have some issues.

And if it does, I need to go see an oral surgeon. I'm going to see my dentist on Monday to get the final answer. I'll be off my antibiotics by my second round of antibiotics by then. And then we'll make the determination if I need to go see an oral surgeon or not. If I do, it's possible that some of the screws in my mouth may have backed out a little bit. And it's like some infection got in there or something or who knows what. But I'm really fucking hoping

I have that I don't end up having to go under the knife for this. I hope it's just TMJ. So maybe you will take a hot dog to the face tomorrow and it'll just fix everything. Dude, that would be fucking great. It just snaps you out of it like Randy Quaid's kid in Christmas vacation got Was cross-eyed and they got kicked by a mule and suddenly could see straight again. I Remember watching a thing on TV as a kid. I was a woman who she must have been in her 20s or something

But she couldn't talk and then one day she just like coughed up a coin And they realized that she'd swallowed it as a then one day she just like coughed up a coin and then you realized that she'd swallowed it as a kid and no one noticed. Did it come up heads? That was so quick. Guess who's not walking around the snowy wilderness of GTA? Someone's locked in. Wow. I had someone in my family who was born completely deaf in one year and like had barely any hearing in the other ear. And because they couldn't hear things, their brain would create sounds.

So like they were they complained later in life about hearing orchestral music constantly that they hated. And this is a problem that went on for a long time. And then one evening they miscalculated how low to the toilet they were and they fell into the toilet and it fixed the problem. It never happened again. What's he mean? What part of the story are you confused by?

What is falling into the toilet mean? Like like sitting down and fell in and dunked your butt in your balls or vaginal? Whatever. OK. So so like they thought they were going to sit on this. Like they were about to sit on the seat. It was like they woke up in the night to sit. They miscalculated. And so they fell a little bit onto the seat. Like it wasn't just like they they they naturally transitioned to it.

There was a little bit of a like a book. And in that impact, it fixed whatever was going on. So the music went away. The music went away, never came back. So I have a question for you. Yeah. Did they know in the moment that this had happened or was it a realization that came later and they were like, oh, the music's gone. Well, what could it have been?

The only thing that happened was I fell in a toilet. No, I think it was in the moment. Oh, so like the music was playing and they could hear it. Yes. And then they hit and they had the thud and then it stopped and it never happened again. So after that, they never heard anything ever again. Never heard anything ever again. Wow. Went away after that.

I like that the only thing they could hear was annoying. Wow. Well, they weren't a fan of music, so I guess any sound. Did they want were they once able to hear they could hear, but like not great. So like they had 10 percent earring in one ear and then the other ear, nothing. Do they say seeds or kernels that I can't ask, unfortunately. Did you get any more texts back?

Did you text anyone? Yeah, I did. And I didn't bring it up because it wasn't helpful. Okay, now when you're saying it wasn't helpful, does that mean that it wasn't in your favor? No, it went against me further. Yeah, that's why I didn't bring it up. But I'll talk about it if you ask.

I'm not hiding from it, but I'm not gonna willfully give the information. Now, if you're withholding information that proves us right, you think you're not hiding information Withholding is a strong word. I'm gonna give you the information as soon as you ask for it I'm just not going to declare there's been an update, but we were all excited about the update Well, I so I texted any other name Not even get a place not gonna talk about it. He's just gonna go, oh my god, this is ridiculous

No, I'm talking about it right now. I said any other names and they replied There are unpop kernels oil and seasoning. So they just further elaborated what was in the bag of microwaveable popcorn No seats Real lack of seats. Would an egg be a chicken seed? bag of microwaveable popcorn. No seeds. Real lack of seeds. Would an egg be a chicken seed? An egg be a chicken seed? I guess, yeah, I guess technically.

Are you surprised you can't eat the jizz of a chicken? Can you not? Why can't you? Why? Now, I've never thought about this once in my life, and I'm'm you know, I'm up there in terms of years on earth What made you think of this and what the fuck are you talking about? The chicken is so used but they used the shit out of the chicken. I see. For all kinds of different purposes, but I think the jizz is left alone.

Do you think chicken semen tastes like chicken? Maybe if It was fried Yeah, boy. Do I have a new show idea for you? tastes like chicken Seamen here we go the chicken mating process the cloacal kiss a Rooster often employs a type of foreplay by prancing around the hand and clucking before mounting her The transform of sperm happens quickly like with you Gavin without the penetration

Normal in mammal mating the cloaca or vent of the male and female touch and sperm are exchanged It's more of a rub Okay Hmm It's like Avatar when they cross. Gavin saw an illustration of what Jeff just described and then was sad? No, I just realized there's a bunch of shit that I've never had of a chicken. Like the testicles? Like the testicles?

Yeah, the cloaca. Yeah, maybe it's not as used as I thought. I mean, it's pretty used. You could go buy one. It would be interesting to see. Look at a horrible game. Maybe like a game for farmers where you just look at a bucket and see all the stuff that isn't used and you have to try and guess what animal is. I think, I think you should go to a grocery store and have somebody who works

there, ask them in front of the roast chickens, do you have these with balls? Do you have testicle ones of these? Cause I keep buying these and the testicles aren't with them anytime. I think this is a bullsh- But if I went up to someone in front of a bunch of chickens and they said, do you have the testicle ones of these? They would just be like, a rooster? Yeah.

You could say, have these been detesticle? I, oh. Why'd you give me a French picture? That's just what it was. That was the image that was there when I searched chicken sperm or whatever. Because I'm learning about the cock in the pool. Yeah. The neck is the cock.

No, oh wait, is that what it says? It says the rooster's the cock. Oh, I'm an idiot. What the fuck? Nick thought the neck was called the cock because of his neck. It was important that they- Aw man, I hurt my cock. That's what you took from that? All this popping of my cock?

You know what? Was- Oh, I'm gonna wring your cock. That's my corn seed moment. Was- I mean, maybe it is French for neck. I don't know. I just guessed it was talking about the rooster.

Oh maybe hold on let's look. No unfortunately French for neck is coo c-o-u. Well it's close. It is you know some words are close to other words. So a cuckoo is a is a rooster neck That's that should be the name the name of our new company rooster yeah Oddly familiar to a previous conversation I had once 23 years ago I Had a Video game milestone this week something I've never done before in a video game. I'm very excited about

Tom it's fucking dumb, but I did it you golded every weapon Not every weapon, but I golded enough weapons to unlock diamond I have my first diamond skin and a call to the reds. Thank you Well, I mean I had Vacations in between and stuff, so I wasn't here the whole time, but yeah, it took me probably a better part of a month to do being out of town at least a week of that.

And it's amazing how much better you get at Call of Duty. The first, cause you basically have to take it to gold and then do like four other skins after that, and then it gets you two diamond, and then you can't unlock diamond until you have seven of those. The first one probably took me a week and the last one I did in the evening easily. Oh, wow. It's amazing how much faster it goes as you get better at the game.

That's awesome, man. Good job. Yeah, thanks. I'm excited. I guess I could go for whatever's next, but I think the next one requires me to gold 33 guns. Oh, wow. And I've only done seven, so I don't know about that. Geez. I'm excited for more zombies. I like I don't think they've even announced more zombie stuff, but I had so much fun playing that. Yeah, the whole thing is fun.

Wars. I played a little bit of Warzone for the first time last night, and that was fucking great. I really enjoyed it. It's a I'm a pretty pro Call of Duty right now. Yeah, it's great. It's a really enjoyed it. Um, it's a I'm a pretty pro call of duty right now. Yeah, it's great. It's a really fun one. Hey we Eric and are not Eric Nick and Andrew we Came up with an idea the other day that I feel like we we should talk about now is this idea Just before you expand I noticed Eric posted you guys were hanging out and the idea was called it follows.

Is that the idea? What was the idea? Yeah, it follows. It's not exactly what it was called, but it's close. That is not what the idea is called. What was it called? You go. Eric named it.

The idea is called idea. It follows idea. It follows. We were at the salon Christmas party The idea is called idea it follows Idea it follows we were at the salon Christmas party and we were just shooting the shit and I we were coming up with a different idea that I think we all liked that I completely forgot because we got on this idea and It's essentially a new game we can play that I think you guys are gonna be very excited about and I think Gavin was gonna Play it first Gavin Do you do you want to play it today? And if so? Would you like to wait? Why was I playing it first? I?

Don't know cuz we we said that you because we talked about it tonight We said like either you or you or Eric should play it first Oh, I thought the person who's I did I thought they don't know it is coming. You have to do that, dude That's what playing it is Hey, Andrew thought they don't know it is coming. You have to do that, dude. That's what playing it is. Hey, Andrew and Nick, here's what the idea is. OK, Jesus Christ. The idea is that the power, this power is bestowed upon one person to start.

At any point, they can say they can pick one of the other four of us and say, like for example, what we had talked about was Gavin having the power and then saying, okay, Nick, tomorrow at 10 a.m., whatever your idea is, that's what we're doing. Have it ready, we're filming at 10. Yep, and so, so when it's called, tomorrow at 10 a.m., we will be doing that idea. Then that power now belongs to Nick

after we do his idea and everything. Nick now has that power and can use it whenever he wants on any of the other four of us. So he can do it right back to Gavin, but I don't think that's fun, but could be, who knows? Or he can wait six months and shoot it at Eric when he's not looking. Exactly.

And so at all times, the idea, it follows every one of us around, and you should have something locked and loaded that we could do the next day at 10 a.m. That was the idea of like, okay, so out of nowhere, what is the thing we're doing? And we wanna see if it spawns anything. I think that's great.

Like really bad ideas that are hilarious to film. And I really love the name because it sounds like idiot follows. And I was a big fan of that. Yeah, as Eric was describing it, and I was like, oh, it's kind of like it follows. And then Eric was like, idea, it follows, it's perfect. And then, yeah.

Idiot follows. So that's the idea. I really like Okay this time tomorrow. We're doing this thing Obviously we have to be able to like schedule around it and everything if it's shit's fucked up but yeah, but I think the spirit of You got you better figure something out now because we're doing it tomorrow is a lot of fun The idea is to keep people on their toes and also hopefully to catch somebody off their toes once or twice. But but we thought that Gavin should be the one to start with the power.

I don't remember why now, but it was a part of the conversation. Gavin clearly doesn't remember either. So if nobody has an issue with it, Gavin, you are you have the initial power so you can use it whenever you want to from this point on unless somebody has an issue with that. Alright, the bullets in the gun. Okay. Shoot yourself with it. That would be insane. Then it's just over?

Like that's like the end of it? No, then you'd have to come up with an idea by 10am tomorrow. Oh man. That's just blind sight, isn't it? Blind sight yourself? I think that's, maybe that's how we started. I don't remember how exactly we started talking about it, but this feels like a thing where you're blindsiding someone else to have to make a blindside, but we all know it's coming. I also just realized I blew my idea.

Cause we were talking about this and I got really scared and I thought in the moment I need to come up with an idea. And I came up with the spitting the hot dogs on the fan. And I guess I forgot that that was my idea. That was your oh, man. Yeah. That's right. Excited. You're lucky, buddy. You've got all you got all the time in the world because you're that you're in control of the gun. That's true. Bye.

That's true. Bye. Absolutely not. I thought it might go somewhere more than that's true, but OK. Honestly, I've been laughing so much this episode. I've got I got real bad. I got chest pains. Do you have to shit? No, I just got laughing so much this episode. I've got, I got real bad. I got chest pains. Do you have to shit? No, I just got like heartburn again.

How do you have heartburn from laughing? I don't know. I've got like, I guess some sort of acid problem. I don't know. Acid problem? You guys have an acid problem? I was just laughing, now my chest hurts. Is that a thing that you've always had? No, no. Pretty recent. Uh oh. It's probably TMJ.

Probably. Hey. I'll get a chiropractic adjustment. We're getting pretty close to wrapping this bad boy up. But before we do, I wanted to enlist your help, if you don't mind. I was looking at stuff I wanted to enlist your help if you don't mind I Was looking at stuff I want to do in 2025 one of the ideas that I'm most excited about personally was doing that Geo guesser bingo game because you know, I'm a sloppy guy and

I was wondering if you guys would help me come up with prompts We don't have to do it in episode but just like I'll give you an idea of what I have This is what I've written down so far a flyer on a street pole or you know like anything furniture sale or whatever uh puncture appliance outside a car on blocks a stop sign a dog a person crossing a street a trash can a mcdonald's a green car i look this up do you guys know what green car I Looked this up. Do you guys know what? What what store has the most?

branches in America Subway no, it's not Walmart not in close No, it's dollar general there are Thousand dollar generals in America, so I figured a dollar general would be a good one. There's twelve thousand seven eleven. So that would be a good one. There's seventeen thousand Starbucks. That would be a good one. A swimming pool. Somebody with a backpack and some form of sports field.

That's what I've written down so far. So that's just kind of like things that you might see if you, you know, geo dropped into a location. So just have that in the back of your head. And if anything comes to mind, please, we need it. We probably need a good 60 to 70 of them just to confirm. It's like we're on Google Street View, essentially. It's like, yeah, yeah, it's dropping in on Google Street View.

And then you do a 360 around you and then pull back out and go to another one. You know how they blur out people's faces on that? Yeah. Do they blur out dogs faces? I don't think so. I don't think dogs have any right to privacy. And I'm not saying that's fair or right. I just think that that's where we are. I'm for it. I think I don't think dogs have any right to privacy and I'm not saying that's fair or right. I just think that that's where we are I'm for it. I think I don't think dogs should be I don't think dogs should be allowed to be private at all

So it's just a spin Jeff there's not like you can move up and down the street at all No, I think it's got to be just the spin You can do you drop down and wherever you are you do a slow or fast pan? 360 around see what you see and then you pull out and you go somewhere else. I was going to suggest if you had movement, it always takes me off guard where I'm going down a street and then all of a sudden it's very clearly a completely different day. Like they updated midway through the street and it's now like a way sunnier

and it looks nothing like it was a foot prior to that. Oh, yeah. But OK, that'd be fun to come with prompts for that. Yeah. I just think you might see. I think we probably need to go. I don't remember. I don't remember. But I think if if we had like 65 total, I think that's enough for a bingo board. It's about what I did for the original. I think I did 62 originally for sloppy.

I think we can enlist the audience audience as well. Yeah, I think I think because I think they're gonna come up with some really creative ones I've just been like writing down what I see or notice that appears multiple times on that. It's shitty Yeah, take that channel like But yeah, I'm sure the audience will have a ton of great ideas. I'm sure I want to see someone falling over Yeah, I'm sure the audience will have a ton of great ideas. I'm sure I want to see someone falling over Fucking hell yeah, I'll put it on the board someone falling tripping falling. I think yeah else I don't think I've ever seen it be funny to see someone like flipping off the truck. Oh sure flipping off I feel like I've seen like images of that on reddit and stuff. Oh Yeah, that makes sense

Gavin how do you feel about having the gun? the idea gun of that on Reddit and stuff. Oh yeah, that makes sense. Gavin, how do you feel about having the gun? The idea gun. It's nice. It's nice to have a... It's nice, okay. The start of something ready to go. And so, okay, so to just, I wanna make sure I fully understand this idea. So Gavin could say like, Nick, 10 a.m. tomorrow.

Do we all show up for that recording? Or is that? Yeah, okay. Nick has an idea for all of us, yeah. We don't all have to participate in it. It could be a three player video game, but everybody's gotta comment or whatever. It could be a video game, it could be a live in person

thing, it could be a bingo, it could be whatever. But it has to be an idea that's going to be some supplemental content. Yeah. Great. Love it. That's gonna be so much fun. It could be that show where you and I read the local paper and eat the pie or whatever. Yeah, it could be. It could be great.

It could be anything. Literally any idea. Yep. I cannot wait for one year from now to see what comes of Idea at Follows. Yeah, I think that was, it's the thing of, we're so bad of following on a bunch of threads and having stuff come out timely. This is a... such a focused fire of,

okay, what's the idea? Okay, we're doing it right now. Okay, it can come out. We just put it out. It's very, very easy, very, very fast. It'll force us to talk about an idea and then immediately release it. Yep. I think we should at this point have a doc that just has all of our running bits. So we don't forget any. Sounds great. Let me know when you get it going.

Yeah. Invite me, share that with you. If you want to just send it to all of our emails, man, that'd be great. Well, that'd be like a producer role sort of. Oh, I'm just saying is a we thing. And as we've been clear about. As the person who's in charge of all the docs. Mm hmm. Yeah.

So yeah. So anytime you want to get that going, get some ideas down, then I can. Yeah, I can. We can all have a look over it all together. Well, we're talking about just to make note of because I keep forgetting and then remembering, forgetting. And I really want to see this content. We still have to release the snake eyes tuxedo unboxing. Oh, my God. And I also would still really like to hear the podcast that Eric

and Jeff recorded vinyl shop. How about that, too? Now, you don't need that one. That one might not be the funniest thing about that one is me farting on Eric, but... Yeah, it's really just sort of like, this meander didn't really... I don't know that anyone's really gonna care about it. I don't think either of us was super blown away by it in the moment after we did it. We were both like, eh.

I mean, now that I know there's a fart in there. Because I feel like if all of us on this podcast, Eric would like to be farted on the least. Yeah, I agree. Yeah, I would. I would. Yeah. I'd plant that flag for me. I agree.

He didn't seem jazzed. No, but let's so so I so now we know I like it the least. Who likes it the most? Well, I've definitely had the most, but I would say I like it the most. I'll probably take it. That's fine I mean, can you you have to sell a fire at a job? Yeah Yeah, why not? I think people have done that before Didn't scope up didn't didn't some girl do that on the only fans or something

So fine, I think so like water But what if you what if you farted in a balloon? What if you filled a balloon with fart and then put that balloon in your mouth and popped in your mouth? Tick tock makes two hundred thousand dollars selling her farts in a jar. What if you Jeff farted in a balloon and then you cork it off? And when you next have to fart again, you fart in the balloon and you see how long it takes to pop it.

Man, I don't know. I that's a precision that I really like where you're going with this. But I feel like you're going to let as much fart out as you put in every time you open. You would need to make device. Yeah, we'll make like a one way valve. OK, yeah, if you can, if you can one way it. Yeah, that's what it will look like for you is, I guess, sort of like a stick on funnel for your butt.

Yeah, so I think it would be a funnel that he would like essentially put his butt around and fart into and it would lead into a bullet. And we could all right our guesses on the balloon. It's you know, it's like that Mario Party minigame or they got to pop it until it explodes. Like how many farts until the balloon pops? And I guess there would also be slow leakage. So if you didn't fight it for like two weeks, you'd probably be down

a couple of hours. Do you ever get those tick tos of their like lives of people that are sitting underneath a balloon and they slowly inflate it based on like interaction and act like, oh, no, I'm scared for one. It'll pop. And they're like massive balloons. I hate that shit. Those are the Tic Toc channels. Yeah. Awful. So weird. I don't even know what I just said.

You being underneath a fart ball just being like,, oh no, oh, please don't. No more fart. It's like one of those balloons you made a career out of. And it's like hanging above some dude who is like laying on the ground. And it's just filling up with water in a hose. And he's like, no, no, no, no, no, no galaxy, no galaxy, please. No, no, no. And then people send galaxies or the fuck that is. And then it makes the balloon bigger.

Yeah, like like he has a valve that he turns on and off. And whenever anyone gifts, he turns it like he flips it like a pay to fill. Exactly. And it eventually pops. And then they just do it over again. And they're going to they're going to ban this fucking program. Can you believe it? Well, in the US, all the value it provides us. I'll be able to continue to talk.

And I'm actually kind of fascinated to see what tick tock would look like with zero US audience. Would it just be a bunch of US people with VPNs? Yeah, probably. Yeah. What it looks like today is fucking seven ads for every tick tock. I don't understand how I get overlapping tick tocks with people for how many people are making content on that app. It blows my mind that I will see on my feed a video that I see on somebody

like my partner's feed. I'll see them see a tick tock that I saw like an hour ago. Yeah, your phone is close and it will. Show you the same shit. OK, well, yeah, since you guys are algorithmically similar, I don't know. But yeah, what Emily and I have like tick tock time in bed at night where we sit, we sit down and watch the tick tock, we see each other and more and more.

It's like for every five tick tocks I send her, she sends me the same sure three of them back. You know, it's very rare that we don't have a lot of overlap to the point where you're like, how big is Tiktok anymore? Because it's like to me, it's like I repeats of shit I've already seen or fucking ads constantly. And I feel like I'm going to be a fishbowl. People got to make. Yeah, that's a good way to put it. That's a good way to put it. Well, we got a lot of

Stuff that's about to start. I guess I think it needs to get in the lab and start working on a fart holding device Good luck man. I'm certainly willing to try the apparatus, but that sounds like a tall order to figure out. Hmm I hope you can I really do I'd like to I'd like to pop a balloon with my butt. How long do you think it would take? Just a regular size balloon? Like a party balloon? Like a fucking year. Six months? Yeah. Yeah, I would think so. I mean, I go, like, I'm not recording my farts right now. I'm just not farting right now. Do you ever do that? Do you just go through phases phases where you just like you just don't have it for a while. What if you filled the fart balloon and then grabbed the lighter and let the air out?

Would it become a flamethrower? Did you can you shoot fire air out of the balloon if you just uncorked it? But I don't see why not. Yeah, I would think so. A fart flamethrower is pretty good. Has anyone let me Google good. Has anyone? Let me Google this. Has anyone filled a balloon with a fart? We should wrap up and. Next time we could reveal.

How many. What a history. How many farts does filling a balloon actually require? I think it depends on the fart. Not every fart is the same. I can pay to get the answer. I'm not doing that. fart. Not every fart is the same. I can pay to get the answer. Should we do a monthly feature where Andrew presents all the TikToks that America's missed out on? It gets banned? Yeah. I'll, uh, I'll use my Umi Digi and I'll film, I'll record

my soy phone, my terry ag phone, whatever it is. Wait, why would, why would, why would the Umi Digi Digi be involved? Because it's banned in the U S and you're all in the U S so you won't be able to view the ticktock. So I will need to pull the ticktocks and my way of pulling the ticktocks would be the use the Umi Digi to video record the screen of the Soyphone. You wouldn't just capture the screen of the Soyphone. You don't? You're just long press and download the video. Oh yeah. I guess I would swipe. I would swipe down and screen. Yeah.

Okay. Yeah, that works too. I found a subreddit with some math. Okay. And they seem to think you could do it in about 412 farts. So less than I would have assumed. Yeah. So you need to be fine more than once a day if you're going to do it in a year. Yeah year Yeah, I'd have to well. I mean the average person farts like 20 to 40 times a day

So I just you know I just gotta be average Yeah, I think so how about do we count so we're nah they can't eat toilet farts I mean a farts a fart. Yes, that's true as long as shits not coming out of it Yeah the fun facts humans pass gas between 13 to 21 times a day. So a little less than I said, but I think I'm a little more than the average human. So Eric, what's up? Yeah. End the episode.

Oh, well, there you have it. Eric told us to end. Uh, hope you liked this episode. I hope you got enough because if you didn't, it's probably because Eric made a stop right at this moment I don't like we were that you're a fucking freak dude It's almost an hour and 15 minutes feel like we were about to hit a hit a whole fart gear But we'll have to revisit that in the future as Gavin builds his fart collection device Which I am very excited now Gavin. I have a question for you real fast

Is this gonna go on me like I'll sit on it or is it going to go in me? I'm going to have it. Try and have it so that we might need to take a mold of your ass. And then I and then I'll have that plastic that kind of. Sits on skin really well, you have to like peel it off, but there's no adhesive sort of thing. Mm hmm. Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK. I like that. I like that because I'm not opposed if you had to put a small tube in me.

I would prefer not to have to self flatflatulize that way every day. But I am interested in doing this for science. So I want it to be convenient enough that you just think, oh, let me grab the. There we go. And I have to like get the hose out. Yeah, that's a good point, because that is often a lot of times I don't record a fart because the barrier to entry to getting my phone and record it's a whole thing. And so as easy as possible would be better. All right. Well, I guess that'll do it. Thanks for listening to another episode of the regulation

podcast. We we sure love talking about farts with you. Hopefully we'll we'll be able to come back next week and talk about other body stuff. We'll see you then. Bye bye. Bye.
