Hello and welcome to another episode of the Regulation Podcast.
I'm sitting in the chair!
Yay!
I'm going down right now!
I need to sit in the chair!
Why?
Why?
You didn't do it at the end of the last episode.
Why did you do that?
Also, I gotta intro the fucking podcast first.
I'm sitting in the chair. I don't care.
You gotta know, you can't...
Let me get through the intro and I'll throw it to you.
Let's do it properly!
Let me throw it to you!
All in favor of
Another episode of the regulation podcast. This is episode zero zero zero zero zero zero three My name is Jeff Ramsey with me as always Andrew Pant and Gavin free Nick and Eric Andrew
Why don't you sit in that chair? I'm gonna sit the chair
This is really nice. This is way better than what I was doing
My back has been so fucked because we've been recording everything today.
This is our fourth recording consecutively.
My ass can't handle that in the other chair.
I'm comfy. This is a great chair.
To be honest, as soon as you sat down, I could hear your smile.
Yeah, it's it's I turned from a comedian to a comfy complainer like instantly.
I've been known to comfy complain,
so I'm glad that it is bringing out that side of me.
This is great.
What are your immediate thoughts on on the specifics?
I can't believe I have a back now.
That's wild.
What happened to these?
This is crazy.
I don't think I'm going to tighten up and pain
every like hour or so and then have to get up and oh, this is great.
The thing with chairs is I never know how to use them is the problem.
Like this is a lot of switches and stuff.
There's always switches and levers and buttons and there's no instruction manual.
So I just never use any of the attachments or like fancy stuff.
It surely does have a like a quick set up cheat sheet.
Yeah, there is. There was no cheat sheet.
You know what? You know who has one fucking YouTube.
That's always confusing because it's I don't know.
I guarantee you there's some boring three minute video
that the company produced that explains very
simply how to what each knob and whistle does.
It probably do you think we could produce a more lively one?
Yes.
Yeah.
What if Andrew shoots a commercial that teaches the chair?
It's great.
I don't know how the chair.
The problem is how do I learn how to what the I don't even know how to describe the
thing.
So how do I learn learn how do I search?
How do you do it like the cavemen do it start banging shit together till you make fire?
Yeah, why don't you wangle one of the knobs and see what happens? Yeah
I don't turn something left lift something up lower lower a different one feels dangerous to the right
Crank down one of them
I feel like there's certain knobs that only work if you're sitting in the chair when you use them. And I don't want to sit in the chair.
Yeah, but I don't want to use it while I'm sitting in it because that just
feels like that'll be disastrous. Why don't you just tease one of them to see what goes on?
Some of these only work when you're sitting in it and I'm currently sitting
in it so I won't be pressing any of these things. They wouldn't, they don't,
they didn't put like escape levers in there to jettison you out of the house
like they're all designed to increase your comfort.
I feel like I'm going to hit this button and the backrest is going to snap down and I'm going to roll out the back of the chair.
He's treated like Wonka's elevator.
It's a chair.
I am.
I don't trust any of it.
It's very well made.
There's amazing like there's so many things on it that's customizable.
I just am scared.
What do you mean? Just do something.
I just flipped a lever. I don't know what I did.
I don't know what I did, but it's up now.
You just bought a Ferrari, but you only drive it to the mailbox and back.
So what's terrifying is there isn't a lever on the same side.
So what did I just do?
What? Oh, it could be like the amount of tilt back it could be lumbar
It could be the forwards and backwards of the sitting part
See there's a lot of things you can do to be positive. You got damn tank
Levers everywhere. How many pedals are there?
Six all right calm down.
Nobody needs that shit.
It's not available. There's not a website anymore. So we gotta do it here. Herman Miller doesn't have a website anymore?
No, they're ready for a spoil.
I've been having a pretty serious problem with my printer.
What is this most serious issue you can have with a printer?
So I try, I print to it, right?
It says couldn't find printer or like, yeah, this doesn't print.
And then I'll come back into my office like four hours later and the thing is just on
the floor.
So my printer is just embarrassed. It doesn't
want to print in front of me. I've never, I've never seen it print.
Dude, dude, you have a shy printer. I dated a girl in the army who was the same way with
eating. She wouldn't eat in front of me. So we'd go to like Burger King and she would
wait till I look away and then she'd take like a rabbit bite and then like freeze up
again or I'd go to the bathroom and I'd come back and she'd be going to town.
She's like, wouldn't eat in front of me.
Your printer is you got to have you got to sit down and have a conversation with your printer.
I'm actually you got to put it at ease.
I'm not even joking when I said I wanted to when I thought I wanted to set up a camera to catch it printing.
Because it will never do it.
I could ask it to print and I'll sit in the room with it for three hours
And it knows when I've left dude
What if you ask it to print right now, and then we'll just see if it does before the end of the upset I
Love perfect. Let me print do it. Well should I print I give you something to print yeah?
print the chubby logo
printing the chubby logo
Look at a happy chubby guy is we're just wasting ink then huh? No, this is great every fucking color on earth
Shop Jeff has that tattooed somewhere on his body
Hey, they don't tempt me I got
I'd love for you to have a chubby tattoo. I'm at a tattoo in a while I
Really think about him very much anymore.
I wish I had more, but the whole part of getting them is annoying.
Barrier to entry stuff, kind of like a parasailing or whatever we're talking about.
Your pictures can't be printed because this error occurred.
An internal error occurred.
OK, the internal error is your present.
Huh? That is a different error than I've got before.
I will say it is probably I could see it being a chubby issue
because I don't think there's anything like official about the chubby branding at this point.
Now, I'm not familiar with chubby.
Oh, my God. It's just air screen on top of air screen.
When Gavin tries to print.
Yeah, that's unfortunate.
Have you tried printing the law?
It goes great. No, don't try that.
I'm printing it full screen.
Just do try printing it smaller.
Maybe that'll help. Oh, yeah.
There you go. What are you going to say, Jeff, about Chubby?
I just I'm not familiar with Chubby as a brand.
Is that a Canadian thing or is it brand of soda from Trinidad and Tobago?
Oh, it used to be Canada.
Now it's only available in the United States at Walmart specifically.
We were talking about it when we were in between in between recordings.
He had asked if I'd ever had those and I said, no, the ones that I remember,
it's these these cheap-ass little
Nothing. Oh, yeah, dude those the little barrels fuck. Yeah, I don't even know what they're called. I just searched like
plastic cheap drink
1990s
Those things are fucking great
Well, uh, what the flavors red, orange, purple, blue,
purple, green flavor.
I think that's it.
Don't know what they're called, but they're like shaped like little barrels.
You would never guess what they were called.
What a ridiculous name for these.
What is it? Little hugs.
What the fuck you little hugs fruit barrels
Motherfucker that is what they're called fruit barrels. They're just kind of hugs
They were like their products this a quarter they were so cheap so chubby has
Pineapple sunshine cream scream orange tango or tangy, whatever it is.
Tutti frutti purple power and blueberry blast.
They have a you get like get like a little six pack of all the different flavors.
I feel like we should get some of those.
Yeah, I feel it was continued.
Sadly, the chubbies.
You just said there, Gavin, did you guys have a weird drink?
I thought we're talking little hugs.
I had Panda Pops.
And they were probably the littlest drinks that I had.
The littlest drinks.
Is it? Hang on. Is it these?
Oh, I remember them being smaller than.
Than that.
I don't know. Is that Panda Pops?
I have no idea.
I don't know.
Panda Pops.
I hated him.
I didn't really like fizzy drinks.
This guy's too wrapped up in his printer, man.
I don't know about this.
Do you guys remember these?
I was thinking about these the other day and I was going to Oh, wow, did they exist in Canada Andrew or is this like a
Outback Steakhouse kind of thing. I feel like that that is an Outback Steakhouse thing. I have no memory of clearly Canadian
That's all in the 80s. They were everywhere dude. Yeah that I like that must have gone right up until about
1992
It feels like so early 90s and they were gone.
That's crazy.
This disappeared.
Why was Clearly Canadian discontinued?
Poor management decisions.
Founded in 87 in British Columbia.
Oh, there you go.
There's a little before your time, I guess.
I guess so.
You should, you should, if you can find some, you should get some. In 1993, their annual sales at one hundred fifty five million. Jesus.
I'm learning all about Little Hug.
They also have Big Hug branded.
There's the same product, but they're bigger.
Oh, that's awful.
You should not have a bigger, bigger taste of happiness.
There's just it's just nothing.
It's just sugar. It's like hummingbird food.
Like you should.
They sold it in 2015, I believe it said,
and they reduced the sugar content.
So it's not even gross.
Okay, yeah, but a million reduced to 900,000
is still too much.
You know what I mean?
Dude, it's fucking shitting down rain
outside of my house right now.
Yeah.
It started.
Just started, yeah.
It's begun.
Did you have, Jeff, I feel like this is after your time,
but before probably everyone else is here.
Did you guys have Raven's Revenge?
I have never seen that in my life.
I don't know what it is.
I figured, I figured.
What the goddamn it is?
It is Revenge.
Is that like a fruit roll-up?
No, no, no, no.
Like it's like it's sugar.
It's like sugar dust.
It is like.
Chicksie sticks.
Like kind of kind of, but like you would go to like the
little Ravens revenge station thing.
And you would like layer it with different flavors.
Some of them are like really sour
and some of them weren't whatever.
So you make your own layers.
Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So you would make like cool sour and some of them weren't whatever. So you make your own layers. Yes. Yeah, yeah.
So you would make like cool designs and then show your friends
and then you would all just be in sixth grade eating nothing but sugar.
It looks like something you would put in a letter to assassinate the president with.
That does not look like edible food.
Yes, I agree.
That yeah, it's like something Ted Kaczynski would send to a college.
We were inspired, you know.
Yeah, so that sums up the 90s.
Actually, now that you mentioned it, I'm surprised this generation has teeth.
Yeah, some of us know, especially with what Nick is throwing down there with fun dip.
Do we have fun dip in the office up until us going out of business?
Fun dip in an office. That's crazy.
I've never had fun dip, but I've seen it a lot. Oh, dude. It's fun dip good.
The stick is the best thing on earth. I wish I could just buy the stick.
I just if I could buy like a stick a six pack of sticks like a stick pack. I'd be all I'd eat.
Dude, what a what a power move it would be to just pull the stick out of a bag of
fundip and toss the bag out.
I do that all the time. What are you talking about?
I'm saying it's a ball of moon.
Wait, the stick is edible.
Yeah, that's the best part.
Yeah. Oh, I always assumed it was just like a spoon.
So it's flavored like powder.
like a spoon. So it's flavored like powder.
And then when you're done with the flavored powder,
the stick is just super pressed sugar
that doesn't have like a flavor except sugar.
It is sugar dipping in sugar and then you eat all of it.
Yeah, it's a white flavor.
That's how I would describe it.
Tastes white.
Big time.
What was the best flavor of fruit barrel?
red uh
boy
Red or blue probably those were like fuck fuck the cheapest like the easiest website has orange and purple
The only ones to have it's because they're the only ones left cuz nobody's right. Yeah, yeah, cuz those aren't the good ones
Yeah
Goddamnit, okay. I'll look into this
I want to try those
because I feel like those are things I've only seen in movies or like TV.
Like they suck. Like they're not good.
You know, do you?
Speaking of shit, bad candy, do you remember wax cola?
I think I know you're talking about, but not that as a brand.
Oh, God.
Is it the drinks that like you like like the top? Yeah. Wax bottles. Yeah, God. Is it the drinks? The like you like like the top?
Yeah. Wax bottles. Yeah. Yeah.
But they're so small, like I didn't really understand.
No, that's why they suck.
You were supposed to like bite the top and then like drink them
and then throw out the wax or chew on the wax.
What was the plan with the way you chew on the wax?
Yeah. Who wants to chew wax?
I would put the whole bottle in my mouth at one time and just start chewing.
That's what you mostly did.
Yeah, until the flavor was gone.
Oh, they're tiny.
You spit it out.
Yeah.
Yeah, they're small.
Oh, I thought they were like full bottle size.
Like a giant candle bottle.
And you just chew off the top like gum.
That would be crazy.
Just like walking around chewing on a giant ass candle.
That's exactly what I thought you were talking about.
I want that now. That needs to be a thing that exists. I'm sure you could make that. What kind
of wax is chewable? Listen, I'm already fucking, I'm doing pickling already. I don't have time to
figure out how to make a wax bottle on top of the pickling. Then you got to get, you start today,
you got to get into industrial glycine, start adding that in. It's a whole thing.
Then you got to get you started. You got to get into industrial glycine, start adding that in.
It's a whole thing.
It does feel so funny to just bite the top off a soda bottle and drink it and then just
eat the bottle.
Like a Coke product type thing, like real soda, because I don't even know what the liquid
is in the wax bottles because it's certainly not.
It's not soda.
It's like a juice, I guess, a fruit fruit juice I describe it as yeah and quotes yeah yeah
in quotes did anybody else answer what the grossest food they eat is oh no I'm
trying to I don't really have one for sticking in the like beverage realm I
really like the taste of Dasani water and I feel like that just makes me a
scum. You're a monster.
Crazy. That's the grossest.
It's like drinking.
And I know, like, oh, I know.
Everyone says that.
I like it.
I think it was banned in England.
Probably.
It's a shit bottled water.
I think it's like the worst bottled water brand.
It's somehow you you drink it and you're like less hydrated.
I don't know how it happens.
It's like the tuxedo.
Nick eats sardines with jalapenos and hot sauce.
Yeah. Oh, wait, Nick.
It's like with on what? Like just a sauce. Yeah. Oh, wait, Nick. It's like a with on what?
Like just a bowl?
Yeah, a bowl.
Like a bowl of fish and peppers and hot sauce?
Yeah. This man is absolutely drinking fish stock on the side out of cans.
I can't be stopped.
What does that look like?
Uh, gross.
Can you, Nick, can you name on one hand the number of food you don't like that you wouldn't eat?
Yeah, probably.
What would you avoid?
Because we ran into that issue earlier in the other show where I was trying to remember something I didn't like off the top of my head.
I'd say the thing I don't like the most or like would probably avoid is coconut.
Mm.
Yeah, that was weird.
I'm just like considering what you I didn't mean you're weird as in your weirdness person.
I meant of your taste of all the things for you not to like coconut seems like a weird
one.
It might be the texture.
I don't know.
A lot of people don't like it.
What about in chocolate form like a bounty or like what do you want yours mound mound? No, no. Good. No, I can't know a lot of people don't like it. What about in chocolate form like a bounty or like what do well yours mound?
No, no, no, it's good. No, I can't do it
Why we're in good chocolate Nick has that dog in him not in the sense of like not quitting
But he'll just eat whatever the fuck you put in front of him. Yeah, I mean I'll slap it up really
I mean, it's yeah
I mean you guys are getting a better glimpse at what he is on the other show and 100% eat
It's just this all the time. Yeah, kind of, you guys are getting a better glimpse at what he is on the other show and 100 percent. He it's just this all the time.
Yeah, kind of.
You know, Gav, you you'll slap a lot of stuff up to in the grand scheme of things like you're not into sugary candies and like
food that was created in a lab.
But like I remember touring Scotland and England with you and you ate haggis and all kinds of nasty shit.
Haggis is delicious.
That was mainly trying stuff.
I still eat that raw meat that you ate haggis and all kinds of nasty shit. Haggis is delicious. That was mainly trying stuff.
I still eat that raw meat that you ate in the Netherlands.
Oh, Osverse.
Raw meat. Yeah, I didn't.
I was looking at that.
I'm convinced of the way it was pranking you with that shit.
We. Yeah.
And he totally might have been.
But we still we still ate it.
It was not good.
It was like it was like, what is it? I don't ever eat it, but what is that raw meat?
It's always an appetizer.
What's it called on a menu?
Steak tartare?
Tartare.
It was like tartare shoved into these
pickled peppers.
And then you would just like,
you would just like pop it in your mouth
and there's like an explosion of raw meat
and blood, juice and blood.
Yeah, I tried. It was. Yeah.
It wasn't great.
Ost first.
I lost him. Yeah.
Jeff lose power.
I mean, though, the weather gone just so just so you guys know,
we've been recording for the last few hours. few hours. If we're keeping this in, we've been recording for like the last few hours and over probably the last I'd say 45 minutes to an hour. The weather has turned like insane. It was sunny and bright. I mowed my lawn this morning. Like it was black. I'm in the dark. It's so dark. It's almost four. It was pitch black. Like I'm in the dark at 4pm. It's so dark.
It's almost four.
It is raining so hard.
And I bet, I don't know if Jeff just lost power,
but I got a feeling he did.
Do we think that Jeff is a UPS guy?
Nope.
UPS?
Like the battery.
Yeah, like the backup battery.
Oh. No, absolutely not.
Yeah. So, Andrew, the thing that I learned starting to work at Rooster Teeth
was that was a little less than what thunder.
Oh, I heard that through Discord. Yeah.
Everything's crackling when the lightning strikes.
The thing I learned when I started working at Rooster Teeth
is that they are religious about their backup batteries
both at the office and at home.
I never had run into that until I started working there.
So many people have backups.
It's really crazy.
I got like five of them.
Yeah.
I've none.
My power goes out and I just go,
I mean, I guess that's it.
I have a, cause I have a server that it spins up like 60 drives and I'm so paranoid about like a multiple drive head crash if the power goes out.
So I've got like a dual layer UPS for it.
Oh, wow. You're set. There he goes.
I haven't heard back from Jeff yet. I texted him to see what's up, but I haven't heard back from him.
When I worked at an IT place, we had to do tape backups for servers. Did you ever do that stuff?
Yeah, I got tapes.
Geez, man. That stuff's crazy. People.
All right, I'm back.
Welcome back, Jeff.
Yeah, what's up?
No, my power didn't go out just my my my router just turned off.
I guess my mom was weird.
You know, I've had a surge.
I must have had a surge or something.
Yeah, I just took it a second to come back on.
So you're still recording? Yeah, I never stopped.
Oh, nice. I'm a fucking professional, dude.
Come on. What do you backup battery guy?
No, no, no.
No, but I never have been.
I have never had a backup battery.
Oh, that is fine.
Yeah.
There you go.
Are you, well I know you are Gav,
but is there anybody else?
I am now.
No.
Yeah, see.
I'm a glow stick and candle guy.
If I was a backup battery guy,
then that would just mean that I would be indignant
and annoyed when I didn't lose my audio
and everybody else did.
This way I'm a part of the group that loses the audio.
Oh, shit, it's pissing it down.
It's pretty. I'm jealous. I'd go to sleep.
Does it make you sleepy, especially in that chair?
Oh, yeah. I listen with the chair and I listen to the rain sounds fall asleep.
What did I miss while I was gone, by the way?
I was talking about batteries.
Andrew, do you think you'll learn your chair before the next episode?
No, I've never learned a chair, ever.
I feel like you spend so much time in your office chair
that I want to know without even looking, like what will my knobs do?
I just get intimidated.
Because what if I flip the thing and it changes and I don't know how to change back?
Just remember what you did.
Just do the reverse of what you just did.
Yeah, but I didn't know what I did in the first place.
So how do I reverse what I didn't know?
Frickin Rubik's Cube.
Film it. Film yourself doing it so you can go back and watch the tape.
It's a chair, man.
And you got a you got like the chair.
You if you're if you were ever to learn a chair to maximize your comfort,
this would be the now I'll try to.
You're right. I need to fully utilize this chair.
I will. I will put an effort in to learn all these buttons and switches.
We've got a couple of weeks before we can record again.
Exactly, Gavin.
You should be like fucking tank in the matrix like all laid out
You just like them are coding like crazy coding comedy. I need to I
Think that by the time
You're back by the time we're back together
You should at least be able to show us a couple of tricks that you learned about
Your chair you got it. Okay
Comedy is all about setting something up
and then having someone deliver for you.
It's a one to effort or even larger, but it's just
the general structure is always that you can see it in like some of the
all time great comedy do is whether it's like appeal, Abbot Costello,
saying polar. I mean, there's so many you can pick from,
but that's sort of irrelevant.
The point is, is you kind of need somebody
to help you knock things out of the park.
And that's you and Shopify.

If everyone here was a Matrix character, who would you be?
Oh, Neo. Yeah, man. If everyone here was a matrix character, who would you be? Oh Neo
I'd be Roy Jones jr. Character. I don't remember his name
Who Roy Jones jr. He was in the matrix. Yeah, I don't remember that who was he in the matrix? I
Don't remember his name. Let me look at what was the character that what I do
Jeff just wants to be Roy Jones jr. He was one of the dudes
It was a good guy. I'd be the guy that says I want to eat steak. No way, baby. Yeah, I'm Joey Pans
I know you're right. You're right. You're our more him. Yep. I'm Cypher. Hey ignorance is bliss
You're right. You're right. You are more him. Yep. I'm Cypher. Hey, ignorance is bliss.
That steak looks, every time I watch that scene, I really want steak. It just looks
so good. And the way he eats it is so weird.
They nailed that scene. It makes you, like you watch that scene and it makes you realize
like, look, I don't agree with what this guy is saying, but boy, that is just everything
to him and it looks phenomenal.
But if you were him, I feel like if I was in his situation, I would think exactly like saying, but boy, that is just everything to him and it looks phenomenal.
But if you were him, I feel like if I was in his situation, I would think exactly like him. Like Morpheus just keeps killing people.
He keeps on, he keeps pulling people out of the matrix and they keep dying.
Right. OK, it was Ballard.
That's who I'd be.
Oh, yeah.
I have no idea Roy Jones Jr.
was in hell. Yeah, it was. I don't. Why james jr. Was in
Hell yeah, I
Don't why was Roy jones jr. In?
Why why not I?
Don't I don't understand it just looks like a bunch of people cosplaying a con
You know that's kind of what two and three looked like to me. So that's part of the course.
I don't know if I, I don't think I know Matrix well enough to make this declaration.
I would be agent, uh, Smith. I found out the names of the other agents, but you know, there's like originally three agents.
Oh, yeah. I just I didn't know there were more names beyond Smith.
The like the square headed guy is Jones, isn't it?
Yeah, the Smith is Jones and this Brown. What were Jones and Brown doing?
While Smith was fucking around like were they fighting a different neo in a different part of the world having their own adventure
I think he just assimilates them doesn't it? Yeah, I think so like I think that mm-hmm
I like doesn't he like he's the one, like, he's the one that, like,
Smith is like the one that, like, breaks out of, you know, being part of, like, this thing,
like, as like an agent or whatever. And he just assimilates these guys.
Yeah. He gets like anomaly and then he gets out of the matrix at some point into a guy that kind of,
oh, it's the guy in that, in your picture, Jeff, the guy next to him.
Yeah. Oh, okay.
Smith gets out of the matrix into that guy.
him. Yeah. Oh, okay. Smith gets out of the Matrix into that guy.
Boy, those movies really.
Those movies suck.
Yeah. But if you if you lump them all in with Matrix four, those two movies are a masterpiece. Yeah.
Was it two or three that he pumped Carrie and Moss's heart back to life?
Oh, yeah. He squeezes it.
Yeah.
Third one, I think. That was pretty cool.
We're just talking about the matrix.
I stand by matrix for is my favorite matrix.
No, you shut up. No, you don't.
It is my favorite.
Like that one. Oh, shit.
But what do you say? Matrix four is your favorite.
It's my favorite of the.
I never saw it.
I don't know. I never saw it.
The two and the three was so fucking painful to get through. I don't know why. Yeah, I didn't like three or three.
Why is four your favorite? I just had the most fun with it. Like I feel like I was maybe a little bit too young when the first Matrix came
Out to appreciate it at that time. You can still watch it now.
Yeah, I've gone back and I've rewatched it and it just doesn't connect.
Like, it's cool. It's a cool movie, but it doesn't connect with me in the way that other people talk about it.
Gavin, it's no Matrix 4.
But the second one has the burly brawl and it has the mile long highway that they built.
What happens in the fourth one?
You know, Patrick Harris.
That's what happens.
They talk about stuff.
Um, I don't think they talk about stuff in any of the other movies.
It's a unique thing of Matrix four.
There is some meta.
There's their meta stuff in the other Matrix movie
where they're talking about their own franchise within the movie.
No, that exactly sucks.
That now is great.
No, it's great. No, it's great.
They're analyzing their own film series within the movie.
It's good.
Didn't the Wachowskis, do they still make things together?
Did they make that together or was that only one of them?
I think it was just Lana Wachowski.
Yeah, I don't think they collaborated on that.
Oh my god.
What I will say is, regardless of any of the movies, none of them are Enter the Matrix.
Which we do need to still play.
Great.
Gavin, why'd you say, oh my god?
I've got an update. You're printing?
Oh, okay.
What's...
What's your update?
Oh, Brinnin!
Wait, so, did you see it happen?
No, I got my headphones on and didn't hear it.
It was just on the floor when I turned around.
So you don't even know if there was a hesitation.
Well, I didn't print for at least five minutes because I was keeping an eye on it after I hit print.
Can I ask a serious question about the Matrix real quick?
Yeah.
Oh, it's Jeff. When did Jeff go?
Jeff's gone again.
Jeff's been gone.
He'll be back.
Are you kidding me?
What he had nothing to say about what everything Andrew was just saying my god Jeff is back
Do you remember in War of the Worlds when?
The noise the monsters would make in War of the Worlds
Yeah, I just heard that noise outside my house, and then I lost internet for a second
So there may be there may be an alien invasion going on right now. I don't know.
Keep an eye out in the lightning strikes. There might be something coming down in them.
Oh shit.
Good call, good call.
Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt. I just had to get that out of the way.
No, that's fine. I was gonna ask a very important Matrix question.
What type of canned gravy would Agent Smith most be into?
You think he's a caramelized dungy? I think he is. Yeah caramelized onion. I think there is yeah, he is I think
What kind of things is he fermenting in his fridge? Oh?
God
Not fish no that much that dude. I bet you a thousand dollars that dude ferments okra oh
That's what he's into
Oh, yeah. That's what he's into.
Like fucking slimy, fermented pickled okra.
Yeah, I'm still just trying to figure out why Rodgers Jr. was in the matrix.
I'd love to know.
Do you think he knows?
Do you think he really liked the matrix?
And so they put him in or do you like how did that happen?
I think he was a fan, probably, or something.
Did you ever listen to his album?
No. Yeah, actually, I did.
It was around the time that he was like
ending his boxing career.
So he's probably making the, in that point where they're like,
all right, do you make the transition to movies
or commentating or, you know, maybe,
maybe that's not the right move for you at all.
Maybe just go quietly into the night.
Which is I think what he ultimately decided to do
till he came out to fight Tyson.
Was that last year, two years ago? Yeah, it was two years ago, I think what he ultimately decided to do till he came out to fight Tyson was that last year two years ago?
Yeah, yeah, two years ago. I think again. I'm just more of a fan of his music so
He did have a great rap album. He was one of the best boxers of all time
He just he just retired four fights too late
I think his music was the theme song to one of the one of like those boxing games. I
Think you're right. I think you're right.
I think you're right.
I think it was can't be touched as a good one.
Uh, Hey, uh, real quick, rewind it back a little bit.
Gavin, you said you had a game or something.
Oh yeah.
Uh, it's been postponed.
What?
What does that mean?
I just thought of a way to improve it and I need more time.
Okay. Fair enough.
Cool.
Because I realized, I remember we could do stuff for Patreon.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Oh, right now.
So you're talking about a supplemental that is just full, is for Patreon.
Oh, interesting.
Well, it's a supplemental that is going to have stuff that we probably can't put on YouTube.
Got it.
I'm excited.
Because I remember that we can like put put clips.
It's going to be clip heavy.
I mean, interesting.
Is this going to be are we talking about my
dick again?
No, we can't.
If we if you want.
Oh, no.
Gravel, Dick Ramsey.
No, thank you.
I.
It's funny, sometimes when I have
conversations with my mom, I feel like
the way you guys react to me sometimes
when I'm listening to two things that are happening in her life.
My mom can no longer go to her favorite bakery.
She was ruined. Her favorite bakery for her in a way that is so stupid.
And I say that in the nicest of ways, the most respectful of ways.
Did you take all the money out of her purse?
I didn't know she
Shoot have you ever been like locked in to like you're gonna go to a place and get something and then when they don't have
That thing you're completely thrown like you have no plan B. You fumble
Have you ever had that experience? Well, I feel like it's never to the point where it's like, I don't know what to do.
Usually I go, Oh, well, you're not like my mom.
She went to her bakery.
She hasn't been to in a little bit to get cookies.
This is what she told me.
She was excited to get these chocolate chip cookies.
She was doing something that day that she was stressed about.
So she thought I'll get these cookies and this like kind of start my day off right.
And she went in and she it's the same lady that works there.
It's a small local bakery.
And she's always had the same person that she interacts with every time.
Is she known by name?
I don't think so.
It is a thing where they don't know each other's names, I assume.
But it's like it's always the same person behind the counter.
And she went in and she said, I'll have two cookies.
And the lady said, oh, we stopped making cookies
because we're making donuts now.
And my mom was not prepared for this.
And her brain immediately went,
there's a bunch of really good donut places around.
I don't know why you would make donuts.
This is her internal thought. Oh, she's not saying so she's not saying that she's thinking this. And so so the lady behind
the counter says, would you like to try one of our jelly donuts? And my mom replies with,
I can't have those was what came out, which is not true. There's no allergy. There is. There's no. It's just not a thing.
And the lady went,
Uh, well, we have cinnamon sugar donuts as well.
And my mom doubled down and what?
I can't have those either.
You're so related.
And we are getting a more full picture of you.
This is crazy.
And there's a pause.
And then my mom said she didn't know how to handle the silence that was there.
So she just said the first thing that came to her mind.
And she said, if you want a good donut, go to milk jam donuts, which is a different
donut place nearby.
And the lady looked at her and said,
I would recommend.
And then she said a different place.
And that was it.
And then my mom left and she was the entire time just thinking,
why did I say that?
Why did I say any of that?
I know I why did that was all dumb.
That was terrible to say.
And she looked herself out of doughnuts.
She is now locked at.
Well, no, she plenty of doughnut places.
She can't get any other baked goods.
You're right. There's no going back from that.
No. So when you tell a person at a bakery where they should get doughnuts
that they sell, that isn't theirs.
Do you think maybe you went in with your balaclava?
You could get some stuff.
Yeah, honestly, for how bad of a position she's left herself there, it would actually help.
It would be a step up, which is, you know, I never thought about that.
But if we ever get a chance, we should reprint that balaclava and sell it as a do-over
mask.
The ultimate Mulligan mask.
Yeah, the ultimate Mulligan mullet mullet mask.
That has been the most recent thing with my mom, as well as she keeps asking me
who says awesome sauce, and I don't know how to answer that.
She's she's asked me on three separate occasions.
I just don't know what to say.
The answer is simple.
Yeah, no, she she's like, who says awesome sauce?
And I was so taken aback. I said, what do you mean?
And she said that's it's somebody says it and I said it was like a phrase a long time ago that some it's like
an internet thing kind of
Way back and she said no. No, that's not it
There is a specific person that is known for saying it who is it and I have no idea who she's talking about
And she just keeps up. Have you been like, why do you keep asking me?
She she forgets that she's asked me like there are enough time will pass
and then she will ask me again.
And it sticks out because I maintain to not know how to respond.
Who is the person that says awesome sauce?
I guess if anyone's listening knows, please let me know
so I can forward it to her, because she keeps asking me.
Was it invented by Homestar Runner?
Is that a Homestar Runner thing?
I can't imagine your mom being on Homestar.
Do you think your mom is watching Homestar?
She loves strong bad emails in the cheeks?
Somebody, oh, I think I have the answer for you.
Okay. It's Chris Pratt in Parks and Rec, maybe.
That is yes. That would be it.
She did watch Parks and Rec. Thank you, Jeff. Jesus.
Yeah, it's either him or the lady, Aubrey Plaza.
I see both of them in.
I don't know. Well, ask her if it was Chris Pratt or ask her if it was Home Star Runner.
I'm sure that's not where she got it from.
I'm just surprised that that's where it originated from.
Mrs. Panton really into the cheat.
That's what I'm saying.
I think that's cool.
She's a big fan of Coach Z.
The whole gang's here.
They want to say awesome sauce to Andrew's mom.
I can imagine her walking home from
the bakery muttering to herself about
awesome sauce and then coming home and
sitting in a chair that she doesn't
know how to use.
I'm so excited for this to be you in a
few years and get to go through it with the Andrew.
Me asking you about awesome sauce?
Yeah, like when you hit the eight, like when because we'll still be friends when you're
in your 50s or 60s.
Sure.
This is this is you are you know, we are who our parents are.
We will be who our parents are now.
Right.
So I hope not.
That level.
I don't want to get blocked out of a bakery.
Do you are the if I had to pick a person in my life who stood the highest chance of
getting blocked from a bank, you would be the only person on the list.
You told us a story about your mom that should have just been about like,
if you told us that you're like, I lied, it was me like everyone.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's what that's what was it. Was it you're like I lied it was me like everyone. Yeah, yeah
Yeah, that's what that's what was it was it you know it wasn't me sure I wish it was
Was it you wondering what a blunt butt plug was this whole time?
She knows about she knows about those now. She's she's informed won't be the funniest thing to put on a buttplug?
Bottle of chubby.
Strong bad.
One of these one of these little fucks I just posted a picture of from Star Runner.
Like what about a groan plug?
Oh, you're up with every step. Like what about a groan plug?
Is it part of the thing with butt plugs those people not knowing it's in well some of them have like tails on the back and
No, I guess true. Yeah, you know, maybe it's like a sense of danger like oh my god when I go to the grocery store Everyone will hear me
I really want them to have that in and then fall down a hill
They'll think I'm brushing my teeth
It was triggered by you farting like the air
Dude look at the amplifier farting like the air shooting the pipe up. Dude!
Like an amplifier.
It's like a kazoo.
What are those things they put on the German planes when they dive to make the terrifying
dive sound?
I got no fucking clue what you're talking about.
Yeah I don't know.
You know like, neeeh.
I know what you mean, but the, I just imagine-
Like one of those but for farts.
Oh, they would like, they would put up, they would stick a playing card in the spokes of
the plane, right?
Stuka-siren.
Stuka-siren, that was it.
Yeah, it's like a little air- driven thingy that they would use to scare people
on the ground.
Do you think the guy, the the who got is the whistle goes who I'm talking about?
But the bub rub or was that a bub rub?
You're talking about bub rub and little sis.
Yeah, I'm talking about bub rub.
You think bub rub has a stuka siren on his plane and he's the first one
going to get those noises?
What do you think Bob Rupp's doing today?
He's still around.
Yeah, I don't know.
I love Bob.
That's got to be 15 years old, right?
I'm sorry. 15. Is that what you said? Yeah.
Oh, man. It's got a minimum.
It's got to be 15. It's got to be more.
Don't you think it was? It was Bob Rupp. It's got to be 15. It's got to be more.
Don't you think it was?
Who is Bob Rupp?
Bob Rupp or the Whistle Go Woo?
Yeah, you'd settle that.
You don't know Bob Rupp?
No, Bob Rupp.
It was from I'll post a link to the YouTube video, but just watch it later or whatever.
It was from a news report in the, in the Bay area, I think.
And they had whistles on their cars,
like on the muffler tips.
And it would whistle when you drove by
and they interview Bub Rub and Lil Sis about it.
And he talks about how like, it's only in the morning,
you're supposed to be up cooking breakfast.
And then he keeps imitating the whistle.
And in 2004, funniest thing in the world.
Can we like, could we watch it right now and play the audio and be or get in trouble?
I mean, I wouldn't put the audio in a wide release podcast.
I mean, honestly, hey, hey, you know what?
Hey, hey, let's put it to a vote.
Try it. Yeah, I'm yes.
I will. Any opportunity to listen to Bob Robb?
Absolutely. Jeff?
Well, now I'm scared. I don't know.
I think I'm a no. Good. OK. All right. Nick?
I'm horrified. No.
I can't vote no.
I got a vote. I got a vote. No, that's fair.
I'm sorry. We don't.
That is a no vote that I support.
I'm OK with it. Yeah, I'm on board with that.
I mean, you voted yes, but yeah, I mean I get it
Yeah, cuz I wanted it, but I'm glad that the adults in the room stood up and didn't allow it to happen
Well, I was immediately thinking you can have three strikes on YouTube, but also one strike makes you lose features
Yeah, and then I was starting to think I lost that worth. Mm-hmm
Yeah, that's a good point
I wonder who even owns the Kron4.com archival footage.
So what was it like?
Traffic's Vuvuzela?
What was the noise?
Dude, you just fucking nailed it.
That's 100% it.
That's better than I could have described it.
Yeah.
It's just that Bub Rub is a character.
And it's like, it's basically, you know how like when you do like man on the street interviews like sir, come over here.
What is your name? And your name is like, oh, my name is Gavin free.
And they're like, what do you think about the construction of the neighborhood?
And you're like, well, you know, it's inconvenient, but I appreciate that they're making improvements.
It was like that kind of thing. But the dude walks up, he's like, my name, Bob, rub this little sis.
And he's like, what? And then he just goes into the whole thing.
It's very funny. It's really good.
Definitely worth your time.
Has anyone watched the documentary Chillin' at the Mansion featuring himself?
No.
Rina about Bub Rub.
What?
He collaborated with people, it says Linnell would hook up with the administrators of the website bubrub.com
who started selling Bub Rub themed shirts, underwear and even ringtones.
The website also went on to promote it and sell a DVD
documentary titled Chillin at the Mansion featuring Linnell himself.
I didn't know that he turned this into an industry, but I'm into it.
We need to do a watch along of that.
That is a it's a it's a 17 minute video that looks like it's just him
talking to the camera, just him chilling at the mansion.
I bet that's a long 17 minutes.
I bet it's long.
Some people just perfectly monetize the moment.
Would you rather watch the entirety of Bub Rub chilling at the mansion
or Painkiller the making of part one again?
Bub Rub.
I'd pay a thousand dollars to shoot a horse to watch Bob rub.
Maybe something we should touch on that is warped all of our views.
I'd like to think since we did it, we did a movie battle.
We did a summer movie auction.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
That'll be a supplemental.
I'm getting page ads on this Bob rubupp thing for the Strangers Chapter one.
I don't like as someone who doesn't own it.
I saw a trailer for it the other night.
I was like, God, did it scare you?
Yeah, a little bit.
Oh, I also don't remember what fucking movies I got, apparently,
because I got sucked into thinking I had the crow.
So we did a thing where we listed out all the summer releases
and then we had an auction for who got what.
And the goal is to build a roster of movies
that will earn the most domestically by the end of the summer.
So it's we all got different things.
I'm very excited for people to watch it.
And we all understood it immediately.
Yeah, we did.
Yeah, once once an example was given,
it was like, oh, okay, I get what we're doing here.
Every time it was explained to us before that, dude, it could make heads or tails of it.
I'm sorry, Andrew.
I love how hesitantly we entered that recording and how
excited we were at the end of it.
Oh my God.
Like we just wanted to do that for everything.
Do you think if has already made me two hundred million dollars yet?
It is spurred some really fun trash talking in our slack
that I am excited to continue throughout the summer.
You and Eric going at it last night was funny.
Cannot believe that's how the game started last night.
That was fucking unreal.
I could I was freaky.
I was freaking out like standing up from my seat,
going, yeah, Harold the Purple Crown!
So you were at an Austin FC game last night,
and you own the film, Harold and the Purple Crown,
which stars Zachary Levi.
Yeah, absolutely.
And did they promote Harold and the Purple Crown
when he was doing his Austin FC thing or is it just a celebrity here?
It was just like Austin resident Zachary Levi, and I was like yelling at people to watch Harold in the room
That's right. He does live here doesn't he uh-huh? I didn't know why he was on the podcast that one time
I see yeah, probably huh?
What was did he promote Shazam to?
I think he was probably promoting Shazam.
Well, I think I think it was Shazam one.
Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense.
I really am.
Maybe we should see if he wants to come on and promote Harold in the purple crayon.
No, we can't do that.
That's a that's unfair.
We can't unfairly tip the scales in our own competition.
I will say, I don't want to tip the scales. I'll leave it up to the people to have Harold in the
purple crayon bring in $350 million without our help at all. We got this.
I really like the idea of Eric booking Zachary Levi and then us voting that he can't come on
Yeah, if he books if he books Zachary Levi I get to book Michael Keaton for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Oh, please go for it. Hey, I'm I'm for if you want to book Michael Keaton for this podcast, please please do
Mr. Keaton you are officially invited. Thank you. I'm booking Cosner then for part two of that
But you have to be careful you have to be careful because you don't have part one
Yeah, yeah, my part one you gotta bring them on after you got to do it between the two
So when is that coming out I would love for that to come out as soon as possible
I know we gotta stop putting out our drafts. We got some of those done.
Oh, yeah, we have a lot.
We have a lot coming down the pipe. A lot.
We've been very since sort of like, OK, the shutdowns happening and us going,
OK, we're going to keep doing this.
We started just a lot of credit to Andrew.
Just let's keep going.
Let's just keep going.
And it's really exciting.
I'm very gas like everything coming out. Yep. Oh, big time. Big, big, big. And it's really exciting. I'm very excited for like everything coming out.
Yep. Oh, big time.
Big, big, big, big.
And like fun gas.
Once we get everything set up.
Oh, yeah. We're lubing that pipe up with fun gas.
Has anyone ever lubed anything with gas?
Then we're going to shoot so many fucking comedy butt plugs out of it
and all over the audience.
I like as soon as we get into the realm of like, appreciate the audience for the support.
Jeff takes it to like, jeers and butts.
Always.
Rope.
I'm just trying to, I'm just trying to illustrate how excited we all are to be doing the regulation
podcast and to be having such an amazing groundswell of support from the audience who I think are
just.
You know, just like the greatest creative dick,
the greatest people on earth.
And I mean, I guess you could say that I was just going to say
that I really genuinely from the bottom of my heart just appreciate
not only the support.
But just the well wishes and just the general feeling
and camaraderie and commiseration,
I feel amongst all of them, if you want it to be whatever
that thing you just said was is cool, too.
But I just, you know, I don't know.
I just really genuinely appreciate and love and feel
indebted to our audience.
And I just want to entertain them in the best way possible.
It is a constant shock of and in shock, not in the sense of surprise,
but like our community is so wonderful and supportive.
And there have been so many instances since we launched of that being displayed.
It is constantly just like how how did how did this happen around us?
It is we're so unbelievably lucky.
It's been fun seeing like you pop up in the discord Jeff
I interact and I've been having fun. I you know, it's funny because I've I've largely strayed away from online
total
the
anything for a while
And discord is a little overwhelming, you know
Oh, so jump right into and there's like so much going on. And it's there's like 10,000 people on the Discord or something.
And and it's like a like every thread or forum, I don't even know how to describe
them. I wage I try to wade into I get excited about that.
I quickly like I try to go in the sports one.
And then I was so overwhelmed with just like all the different conversations.
And everybody seemed to know much so much more about sports than I did.
And I was just like, oh, just I quietly lurk a lot in the discord and every once in a while I get
brave enough to type something. Yeah. I feel like our community feels like
early internet fun again. It's like it's got such cool energy. Yeah, it really does.
Yeah. It's awesome. You know, what isn't awesome is the Canucks. They're not great. I'm stressed.
What is what's the series out right now? Two to Game five tonight.
I'm nervous.
But what I am excited about in the realm of sports,
I really want to do this with you guys, because I do it as part of my fantasy
football league every year.
I want us to get all in on the scripts.
National Spelling Bee.
When it starts up, it's two weeks away.
Pick a kid. I want us to pick a kid. I want us to watch it together like it starts up. It's two weeks away. Pick a kid.
I want us to pick a kid.
I want us to watch it together like it gets intense
in a way that you would not anticipate when you have a kid on the line.
Can we auction the kids?
Uh, yeah.
Yeah.
No, I mean, we could, but probably not a great idea.
No, 20. No, uh
No, we're not actually purchasing the children oh
Oh, oh, I thought we were actually illegally going to but to yeah buy them and then steal them We're just okay. This is not like it's fine An auction draft like the summer league is. I already feel like I already feel like doing the spelling bee
and doing content around it is like walking such a fine line.
Like, I feel weird about it already.
You don't think a video before that called the kid auction.
But it's all it's public.
It wouldn't be anything that they're not already saying.
You don't want to illegally auction and traffic the kids is what you're saying?
You don't want to do that?
Like, what, do you think my issue with it is that it's public or private?
No, I'm saying I understand that it feels weird but like it's, we're not doing anything that they're not already doing.
What does that mean?
That didn't help at all, dude. That didn't help at all.
What are you saying? Because you have to
It's like we have to pick our kids right we have to evaluate
This is your you're saying they provide a problem to start
This is gonna be like the movie league all over again
You're like all you're like I don't know know about this. And then as soon as we're done, you're going to,
you're going to be like, that was so fucking fun.
I can't wait for next year.
I cannot wait to do this.
I'm all in on this.
It's the most wholesome thing ever,
but unfortunately described in the most Andrew way possible.
So if we could get the regulation kid auction
on the calendar, that'd be great.
Listen, that's all Gavin.
What I'm advising is supporting spelling culture.
There's important education supporting.
We're picking kids and cheering them on.
It's not a thing where we're like, we want this kid to fail.
I might want you to fail, Jeff, but I want all the kids to do great.
You get in line, buddy.
It's going to be a lot of fun. So how do we decide who we who we pick then if we're not auctioning?
Typically, how it goes is the final day, they'll have like 30 kids
and then I'll post a list and then we can all just pick.
Yeah, but what if I want your pick?
Well, we'll do it in order.
We'll find like some way to do it.
OK. And when when does it happen? Random.org it.
It's like May 28th.
I think it's like 13 days away or something.
Oh, shit.
And did you want to record this or stream it or what?
I think record would probably be the best.
It's by safer, huh? Yeah.
With how Eric is nervous about it, I think record is the way to go.
Even out like going, yeah, what kids are we betting on?
Like their horses is really like, that's the issue.
You know what I mean?
I mean, that probably is betting for it.
That doesn't make it OK.
Like what what doesn't make what is the issue with child?
Did I Jeff? am I insane?
I feel so uncomfortable in this conversation.
I'm just trying to figure out how to cut it out
and keep the episode.
Recognize these talented athlete spellers
performing their craft, and I wanna honor and respect it
at the highest of levels.
And maybe win a little money on the side.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No money. No money has ever been won.
Your draft order, you get to pick your draft order based on how well you do.
That's how I do it in our league.
But we'll figure out something else.
Maybe we have to do a draft like a football league or something.
That'd be fun.
I'm not against that.
I'd like to do like a giant elimination
pool type thing. I think that would be fun.
You want to eliminate a bunch of kids?
No, that's what we're talking about.
Oh, sorry.
Do you want to eliminate a bunch of footballs?
Yeah, I want to kill
all of them. Deflate them.
Get rid of them.
No more.
And by that, I mean Gavin's dumb sport with the kicking, not the real NFL.
It's not my sport.
It is your sport.
It's the most popular sport on the whole planet.
It's the world's sport.
It's the world's sport.
Gavin, if you had to pick a sport that was your sport, what would you pick?
Cricket.
That's what I thought, too. I thought you'd be a cricket.
I kicked your ass at that. So it's my sport.
Get the fuck out of here.
We should play rugby game.
That's also my sport.
I used to have to play that school.
How bullshit is that?
Rugby?
Yeah, it's a wake up like seven o'clock, go out in the rain, put on my football boots
and just get caked in mud.
And I had to just go in there in the rest of the day, like do English and maths covered
in mud all day.
It was bullshit.
We had to do the same shit.
I had to play football and gym, do the same shit.
I feel like America has showers at the schools.
Oh yeah, you didn't get to take showers?
We had them, but they'd'd all been they were always taped off
I don't think they wanted
kids showering
Wanted dirty little kids running around. Yeah
And then Andrew would look bad on them. What happened? Yeah, I don't bet on them
Yeah, I pick which one I think will win and then we do an order of remnants
I think we'll win and then we do an order of remnant.
I read about what their interests are and what their past felling bee records are
and then I make a determination.
Sometimes I'll watch the whole bee
because you can see all of it up to the final
and evaluate how they do under pressure
and like are they asking the questions or not.
I mean there's a whole thing.
How many times have you done this?
Uh, four years probably?
Have you ever won?
Four or five? I don't think I have, no. I got real close.
What's the highest your kid has ever placed?
Uh, so I sort of technically won one year because there was a seven way tie two years ago.
And I was one of the seven.
That's like being time's person of the year that one year that does yeah
Yeah, I know but that's they they ran out of stuff like they they had to change the smelling me rules last year
To avoid that situation ever happening again
But I don't think I've ever won by myself. I think last year. I was second maybe your third. It's intense
it goes for like an hour and it's stressful.
But it's a lot of fun.
Do you think if you close your eyes, maybe you do this,
you could spell a single one of the fucking words
that you know.
Not at all.
We should do that, we should play along with
instead of betting on the kids.
See how well we do.
First of all, not betting.
Second of all, betting second of all
What's interesting is in the preliminary rounds they do word definitions?
So like all of the spelling impossible the word definitions seem so much easier
Like I get a lot of those typically it's a money choice that will it'll be like word definition
Revolution what does revolution mean is it a b or c and the kids will always get it wrong
That's a b and c what are the options?
option a is it is a
It is a rechargeable battery pack that Gavin owns.
Option B is a dancing video.
Well, no, that would actually be...
Something that slowly spins in a circle.
It is something that slowly spins.
It's also revolutionary.
It is a Howard Hughes airplane is option B and
Option C would be
Option C would be like how do you describe? It's like when
You overthrow something right like when the people are like enough is enough I think the kids get that shit wrong with those clothes. That's terrible
Listen I didn't write that okay
I just going off of what it's been less time spelling and more time comprehending
Damn jokes on you. I've got the APC revolution under my desk
I PC revolution under my desk. I was self-conscious earlier when Jeff was dropping out and we had to carry a little bit with like Matrix talk and like these different things or whatever.
But I will say like the last eight minutes of this podcast have really been something else.
And so I don't feel so bad about what was happening in the middle now.
So if you thought those eight minutes were fun, wait until we do it for 90 minutes.
You're gonna have a fucking blast.
Wait until we do it for 90 minutes. You're gonna have a fucking blast.
I'm gonna go to the grocery store right after we do this and look for weird sodas and gravy in a can. I love it That's great. Let's wrap this one up and call it and then you know, we'll go from there. How about that?
Oh, I wasn't trying in the podcast. I go for another hour. So if you want
Yeah, no, we're not we're not gonna do we've already been going for about four. So I think we're good.
Eric, can I ask you a question before we end?
Absolutely.
What is your least favorite part of our new business?
Wow.
It is probably the government paperwork
and making sure that everything's filed properly.
Like everything about it is great,
except for,
hey, don't forget this one.
Oh, hey, did you do this one?
Hey, this is filled out wrong.
Hey, did you link this thing?
Oh, actually the titling on this one's wrong.
It has to be redone.
Can anyone call the IRS?
It's probably that.
Yeah, I would say it's that.
Now I will say, if you ask me again in a year,
it will be the thing where you guys go,
yeah, we should do this.
And then I have to keep going, who is we?
We is you though.
We is not, here's the thing.
No, it's not, we is not me.
That is how it works.
Are you the producer?
No, no, no, that's how it worked previously.
That's how it worked previously.
No, hang on, hang on.
That's how it worked previously when we had people
that I could defer to and get help from.
I am not shouldering this burden when you guys have an idea.
I will help put it together.
I will not shoulder the burden of harebrained schemes.
What?
Why not?
I feel like I'm well within my right to say,
no, I will not be doing the harebrained schemes
I will help and facilitate will be a year that will be the issue. I vote Eric does producing role
Just but just for the harebrained schemes. Yeah, have a nice game
I mean, I mean you got vote vote on it all you want that I might not make it to this time next year in this
Company. Oh, we had a fucking revolution on our hands. I'm simply letting I'm simply letting you know. I might not make it to this time next year in this company. Oh, you got a fucking revolution on our hands.
I'm simply letting you know where I stand.
No hair brain schemes.
I'm fine with hair brain schemes,
but when I say who is us and you say us is you, no, it's not.
OK, so if us isn't you, it's surely on you
to make an us of other people.
Who are we?
See this is why I won't make it to this time next year.
Eric, as your temporary boss, I'm going to have to insist that you stay out of your contract
for at least another year.
It's not.
I'm telling you right now, because if this is the way that it goes, it ain't going this
way. It's going to be bad. All right, let's take a vote on it. You vote on it all way that it goes it ain't going this way. It's gonna be bad
All right, let's take a vote on it. You vote on it all you want. Is it gonna go good or bad?
Is it gonna go good or bad? I vote good. I vote good. I vote bad
Eric votes bad. He wants it to go bad. I'm sorry, Nick voted good. I'm simply letting you know what's going to happen
Oh, it's gonna go. We just voted on good. Andrew? He didn I'm good. I'm great. He didn't vote. Wait. Sorry. What are we?
Never might good or bad good. It's gonna go good or bad again. Thank you for the one
All right, not the only one who seems to want this to go bad is you Eric?
I certainly don't want it to go bad. Oh, they were set great
So do you where do you where do you fall on the whole like weird shit in a can bit hair brain scheme?
We can put that together, but it's not just me.
That's what I'm telling you in this whole thing.
When it's us and it's your idea, it's not, I'm not going to pick up that ball and run
with it 100% of the time.
I will absolutely help to facilitate and do this stuff,
but I'm not gonna listen to every half-baked idea
in the show and do it automatically.
So you're saying you'll have a hand on a shared ball.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yes, because that is, when it is, we should do this,
I'm saying who is we?
We has to be the person who had the idea
or someone else stepping up and me and I can help
Guide this thing and make this all happen, but I cannot do it all that sounds like a that sounds like a we
Yeah, right, which is what makes sense when I say who is we and Gavin says we is you and I say no
What don't I get I when I say we is, I mean, the bull has to start rolling with someone.
We can't have a-
We is you means we is me, and I'm saying no, it's not.
But we can't have we without me.
That's true.
Right, but Gavin didn't say we is us.
Gavin said we is you.
That is what I'm being very deliberate and very clear here.
We is not just me.
But get the ball rolling and we'll all put hands on the ball.
That's what I don't trust. I need to see it and we can do it.
Does the ball have an orifice?
I'd say it's got at least two.
I will put my hand all over that ball
So Andrew did you pick out under what what I
Feel like so far the ball in general has been very well shared we've all been doing all kinds of shit
It's it's all been
Getting everything together
to do this business,
and I feel really, really good about it.
We are getting to the point now
where we are creating shows and content
and doing this stuff,
and the wacky idea factory begins, and-
Yeah, it's the best part.
Supplemental stuff. And it's fun.
I love the wacky idea.
I have no problem with the wacky idea factory.
I love it.
It's a lot of fun, but I want to make love the wacky idea. I have no problem with the wacky idea factory. I love it. It's a lot of fun.
But I want to make sure the wacky idea factory
isn't just Eric by himself
trying to get wacky idea, the half baked.
I'm telling you, I'm not saying,
I'm not saying that you guys have let anything drop.
I'm simply saying when we, who is that?
And you say it's you, it's not just me.
That's all I'm saying.
Here, allow me to be clear. When we have the ball, all right, 100% of the time, no matter whose ball
it is, no matter who creates the ball, my fist is in it, all right? So there's always gonna be
at least a me with the ball. So anybody else that touches the ball or inserts anything into the ball, it becomes a we.
But there's always gonna be a me involved in this ball,
guys, I'm fisting it hard all day long.
So don't ever feel like it's just gonna be you
because it can't only be you because I'm already in there.
Yeah, I'm gonna touch every ball.
Yeah.
That's great.
I'm super into that.
I'm not good at starting the movement of the ball.
I can provide the ball.
Yes, right. Right.
But it can't be a full handoff.
That's what I'm saying is that it can't be.
Well, I had the idea.
Now, Eric, you take care of it.
That's never like that.
It's not like, hey, you make this content.
I'm not saying I'm not saying that I'm saying when I asked who's we,
you said we is you that is what this whole
Conversation is please understand that I agree with everything you guys are saying right now
I'm saying that when I asked you said we is you and I said no, it's not that's all
Well, I think technically you are a part of we so it's you plus
That is not what was said cuz my cuz don't forget don't forget. I'm in the ball right now
Knuckles wet. Yeah, I get it and I think this was a good conversation to have and I'm glad that we had it
I think I feel like we should
resolve all these conflicts in episode
I'm totally into that. I have no problem with that. Was this a conflict?
No, no, not at all, but it's as close to a conflict as we typically get.
I just like the visual of we're all in the hair, brain factory looking at the
window and there's a whole Patreon waiting outside.
We got to deliver.
We do got to deliver.
Now, before we had this conversation in my head,
the hair brain factory was four people looking down at one factory worker,
me to a whole bunch of people on the outside. Yeah.
You saw it as you're down on the floor and we're all up on like a gantry with
clip. Uh huh. Yes. Eric, you've also got a clipboard. You also have a cool,
great lab coat just like us. Eric's just like slamming his clipboard. You also have a clipboard. Oh cool, great. Fantastic. You got a lab coat just like us.
Eric's just like slamming his clipboard into the ground.
Kicking it across the floor.
This factory sucks!
Oh man, it's the very fucking best, isn't it?
Like having to, you said now we have to deliver.
I'm so excited to deliver.
It's so much.
I'm very excited.
It's the fun part.
It is the best kind of positive pressure I can ever.
It's it's almost like the well, it's I don't want to turn into P talk,
but it's really great.
I really love it.
I love the just knowing that I have to deliver.
I feel like we got balls coming out of our anus right now.
Yeah, we do.
I got so many balls. I don't know where to put
them. All in my mouth.
I'm just like juggling balls in my mouth because where else am I
going to put them?
It's true. All right. Why don't you go and do that?
Do the outro. Let's get out of here.
Hey, thanks for listening to another episode of the regulation
podcast. If you wanted to, I don't know, tell a friend or a
coworker or a family member about a really fun, family
friendly, safe to say podcast.
You could use this one, for instance, regulation podcast.
I think that they might be highly entertained.
Everybody has at one point in their life thought to themselves,
how much money would I pay to shoot a horse between the eyes?
And those are the kind of themes that we explore in a fun, family-friendly way.
But you know that because you've already listened to it.
I'm just trying to give you selling points for all the people that you're going to turn
on to the podcast.
Thanks for listening and check out our Patreon at patreon.com slash regulation pod.
And we'll see you next week or we won't see you but you'll hear us next week.
Bye.
Thanks for the support.
Bye.
