Starting point is 00:00:00 PKN279. Hello there. Taylor. How's everyone doing? Good. Festive? Looks like you've got a lot of presents behind you, Woody. Maybe just presents for yourself.
Starting point is 00:00:09 When you buy them yourself, you get anything you want. I got a new monitor, actually. I got that gaming monitor came in. I guess it's a gaming monitor. It's 120 hertz, but it's ultra wide. And it's G-Sync. I don't know what it is I like about it so much like is it the frame rate is it the fact that there's no more tearing the difference I see is that like when someone's
Starting point is 00:00:32 up close to me and I almost like panic like oh shit he's right here uh I don't go blind from like scanning around whereas I kind of used to because it was torn and hard to watch but I saw you playing COD night taylor how did it go yeah well i played campaign right i did that too at first i should have done recruit but i did regular me too and uh it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be like i started kind of you know figuring out the wasd and the the shooting it doesn't it just doesn't still doesn't feel natural like clicking instead of pulling the trigger on the controller. I ordered an Xbox controller
Starting point is 00:01:08 that you can plug into the PC in case I just want to try that and see how it goes, but I'm having a pretty good time on the WASD. What's the disapproval all around on that one, Taylor? Yeah, that's like if you're teaching a kid to ride a bike and he's like, well, don't worry, Timmy. Just in case you can't ride it like a big
Starting point is 00:01:24 boy like the neighbors, I got you these training wheels i know you're 14 but we don't want your skin in any knees call me a baby bitch because that's what i did so uh wait you didn't plug it in though that's important thing no i only did wasd last night yeah um so it's going pretty well people seem to like it um most of like the struggle with it wasn't even like winning gunfights because obviously it's the campaign and i haven't played a cod campaign in like 10 years but i remember them always being easy the more the bigger problem is like not paying attention and walking through tripwires that i didn't notice things like that um but yeah it's a pretty cool campaign i like it dude so when i saw you you were in a tricky spot
Starting point is 00:02:06 actually i popped in your stream real quick i didn't say anything and uh you were i think there were like a bunch of crates there and there was a whole wave of enemies it's kind of a tough area the second half of the campaign in my opinion is by far the better half i really enjoyed the end i might have liked it more because i didn't stream it and I got to pay attention to the story. That was for you. You saved that for me. We joke, but yes. I do play just for me. I finished the campaign and I
Starting point is 00:02:33 really liked it. I got into it. I won't give anything away, but I liked it. How long is it? I put like three hours in last night. You're a third of the way in. Third of the way? That's okay. It depends on how quickly you're progressing as well. I put like three hours in last night. You're a third of the way in. Third of the way? That's okay. I was going to say that. Well, it depends on how quickly you're progressing as well.
Starting point is 00:02:48 You know, I guess like... I'm dying a good bit. It's not going to be 10 hours. I think you'll knock it out in eight or nine. Yeah, I think so. I got confused on one part where you're supposed to like... Like you're in some Afghan village or whatever the fuck. Or like Russians, I guess.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Like the Russians are the bad guys again for some reason reason and you're supposed to like walk past these guards carrying a single cinder block and oh yeah yeah i kept trying to sneak by and people in the chat were just like berating me after like the third time i died with like you can't win you have to pick up a brick i kept going back like no i'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure I can win and then like eventually I figured out the brick thing carried it through and then there was like another time that wasn't even
Starting point is 00:03:33 announced that you needed a brick that I kept dying at like I just kept you know you have to go plant the bomb on the fucking helicopter on the roof. Yeah a little sabotage. Why would I possibly need to carry a brick up there and how am i fooling these retards well that's it yeah you're full you need to fool the retards there there's another section you haven't gotten to yet but basically there's some chick and you need to
Starting point is 00:03:55 guide her using security cameras oh around oh i did that security guards you didn't i don't think it's very at the end i i got pet oh no i did it where it's like uh you you jump between the different monitors and you have her hide behind cubicles oh i guess you did it yeah that's it well my mistake i maybe my memory's wrong that happens it's about 40 45 in the game i'd say it's when the embassy falls yeah okay all right well my mistake because i played that without people watching i am so glad i could not figure out what they wanted out of me for that, what path she was supposed to take. And I died again and again and again.
Starting point is 00:04:32 And I'm furious with nobody watching. You just want to be like, you know, boys, I don't think she's going to make it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do we have a plan B on here? I don't need her damn card. Dude, Captain Price carries around a crowbar. we open door after door after door after door but this door needs a security card which somehow involves this bitch who's not very good
Starting point is 00:04:53 at evading guards especially not allowing my instructions and and I just didn't know I failed at that again and again and This secretary is terrible at sneaking around insurgents. Don't worry about it. She's a cunt. Everybody in the chat during that part was like, oh, prepare for pain. Taylor, retard, fat-headed Taylor is going to take forever to do this. And I breezed through that faster than I breezed through the brick thing. I breezed through the brick thing. Well, actually... I would have breezed through the brick thing
Starting point is 00:05:28 had I known to pick up the brick. It seemed like if you didn't bring the brick, the guy's like, whoa, whoa, whoa. And he may even butt you in the face or something. They'd turn your ass around. I'm like, oh, brick it is. All right, brick's everywhere. But I walked past them initially to see how serious they were.
Starting point is 00:05:44 And they killed me. They meant it yeah he wasn't bluffing you guys better get bricks uh that the brick part i didn't struggle with but the security cam part that is it seemed like an impossible task and i think and i still stand by it is not the the game, but in real life, if there are like seven people in a room and you need to walk around all of them, you just sense them. You hear breathing or footsteps or something. It was a dumb idea. And I don't know.
Starting point is 00:06:15 And then the way you're supposed to win it, where it's like, go over to that shredder, turn it on. Yeah. The first time I did that, I wasn wasn't thinking at all and i turned the shredder on i just had her keep sitting there and then he just walked over that's not how i did it actually i blew her head off there must i used the copy machine oh no i just went to the shredder yeah i used the copy machine they walked to that and i sent her to the shredder while they checked out the copy machine then i went to the door i guess there's more than one way but it is a dumb idea you know they're not going to be like huh this copy machine just turned
Starting point is 00:06:49 on well i guess it's nothing i didn't really care about the premise i just didn't feel like it was fun gameplay right that would be my complaint i tell you what if you're gonna like take the the player in a call of duty game um out of the standard first person shooter thing call d4 nailed it when they put you in that fucking ac-130 yeah and you're just like well let's just replay this mission again like that's one of the missions that i would go back and just replay again because it's so much fun to be up there and the angel of death just shooting all those cannons and blowing those cars up and killing all those people it's great there were other parts of the game where like you take your little laser pointer and you say,
Starting point is 00:07:25 kill those guys on that hill. Kill those guys on that hill. And I'm like, there's just two of them. I can easily do this in game. My AK shoots that far without any trouble. Pop, pop. Why am I using this damn laser pointer?
Starting point is 00:07:37 It's easy enough. I loved that part. I liked it too. I liked it too. I also liked, I don't want to give too much away, the part where you play the girl a lot towards the end with the eight kids. Oh, the little child where you play as a child.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Oh, that too. I almost forgot about it. That was when I got sucked into the story, when she was this badass child defending herself. But I was actually the woman, I should have said, when she escapes from the prison. I liked that whole scene. Oh, that was cool.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Yeah. Yeah, that was cool. There was a lot of stuff like that. They really suck you in these cod campaigns now. Press F to resist waterboarding. Alright. Is this good enough? No, it's not. Oh, it's... Yeah, yeah, yeah. You have to look sideways and take a breath while you get
Starting point is 00:08:22 a chance. Is that really a mission? You have to do that? Yes. Oh, yeah. look sideways and take a breath while you get a chance so you keep your heart beating I think she'll dodge the water on her own boys I it's too difficult for its own good it's 10 seconds of psychological sort of getting in the headspace of a prisoner thing. Yeah, and the prison that they keep her in, just awful place to stay. It's worse than my hotel room. One star. Yeah. Terrible.
Starting point is 00:08:50 But all the ways to say it doesn't really say it. It is a terrible, awful place. And it's like, wow, you don't want to be there. I thought he was going to rape her. I felt like I got mollycoddled a little bit when there was no rape. I thought he was gonna rape the other chick, right? Like, because he takes her friend and she's like, no, not her, she's harmless.
Starting point is 00:09:11 And then he puts that woman down on her knees and I'm like, here we are, here's the forest earl, oral, and they didn't really follow through on that. They shot her in the head or something. They let her be. Yeah. Ooh. Yeah, right? Yeah. I was looking for some rape in my Call of Duty star bright from heroes had it rougher yeah i mean and it's not like it was
Starting point is 00:09:31 an ugly guy she had to blow it she that wasn't fucking uh he's all right he's pretty yeah he's the aquaman he's ripped oh oh i was back on the car guy but yeah yeah he was okay i'm surprised kyle was that attracted to him, but I can see it maybe. I'm an ethnic thing, very exotic. He was Russian, right? Ethnic thing. I don't remember anymore. He was either Russian or like Iranian
Starting point is 00:09:55 or something like that. I honestly don't recall at this point. But yeah, it's a pretty good campaign. It's hard to tell. I was going to switch to something else, but go ahead, please. I was going to say, it's hard to tell how good you are switch to something else but go ahead please i was gonna say it's hard to tell how good you are cod like just now i play games while i'll be waiting for you and uh i was good you know katie's two or three uh the most objective player on the team like
Starting point is 00:10:16 that's the best version of me um and then i'll play with guys in my stream bottom half of the lobby all night long because they're good and the skill based matchmaking is so effective like it's they they really put me in with the in the deep end when i play with other peds so anyway like i've heard that a lot of people who are used to be used to being good at cod are not good anymore And I think it's because they're stacked against their peers. Yeah, that could be it for sure. I felt like we did have some you know, we did
Starting point is 00:10:52 that camping strategy a good bit, but we would also play objective games and there's no camping it out in Domination. You know, you gotta cap flags. And we played a lot of Kill House. So, but we would have some rough games occasionally. I would say like, we won most of our games, don't get me wrong, you know, MIDI was streaming, I'm sure people saw like,
Starting point is 00:11:10 we won most of the time, but like, occasionally, there'd be like a real shitty loss. And there was, I'm not gonna say who it is, or mention who it is. But there was a certain person with us. And there was a point where I was just like, private messaging the other four players on either six man team, I private message the other form like look, guys. Kind of tired of losing. We all know that it's Pete's fault. I think we can all agree that maybe, you know, we're not gonna kick Pete out. I'm not we're not we're not gonna wings redemption this scenario. But let's politely all just be like, hey, let's call the night. He will will call it a night. We'll appear offline because that does stop it.
Starting point is 00:11:48 In this case, we'll rally back together and MIDI just won't stream anymore and we'll go incognito mode essentially on Pete. And that's what we had to do. I felt bad because I liked Pete as a guy but he was really dragging us down. I want to make it clear, I was not playing with Kyle when this happened. Woody was Pete.
Starting point is 00:12:03 I really wasn't. Woody was not Pete. I was not playing with Kyle when this happened. Woody was T. All right, God damn it. I really wasn't. No, Woody was not T. Woody was not T. I promise. I would never do such a thing. I don't think that I – I think that I usually help the team now. I don't know what would happen if I was in your lobbies, but the skill-based matchup might be higher. But some of my subs are good, though. Of course, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:22 The players at large, especially if they're a longtime fan of ours ours if they have just stuck with it for the last 10 years they've played every cod these like semi-pro gamers out there they probably you know did some game battles and stuff and playing those stupid shirts and yeah they're good players there's and uh like there's one guy marvin is his name he makes everyone else better his call outs he knows where the next hard point is on every single mat. He knows every call out and he's just like, he's being smart
Starting point is 00:12:49 and it's easier to do well when your air support is up there. You know they're going to pretty much be indoors. And like there's a lot of, you can, when one guy on your team is just a freaking cod rapist, then it helps everyone.
Starting point is 00:13:02 You got a rapist on your side, nothing can stop you. That's about right. That's that's about right saying my entire life kyle i i didn't let you change topics oh i was going to talk about the experience i finished it last night i don't think it was a very strong season but i still liked it okay like i i didn't think it was a very strong season, but I feel like they made up for what was a bit of a dawdling storyline
Starting point is 00:13:29 with the improved budget, better CGI, better costumes, better everything. Just the camera work even. It just looked so nice that I felt like, even in the boring, tedious parts of it where I was just like, this doesn't really make a lot of
Starting point is 00:13:45 sense that this would happen and also they've been doing the same thing for two episodes now but god damn is it beautiful how many moons does this planet have you know it just it made up for it for me and i'm a maybe if you're not as big of a sci-fi fan like like and you're and you're not like maybe on by the by the many moons and the alien like constructs. And if if if looking at a pretty thing won't make up for a kind of a slow storyline, some people won't like it. But I I liked it, I guess I would give it a. I don't know, six and a half out of 10, I guess I think I feel like that's right where I'm right where I'm glad I watched it. out of 10 i guess i think i feel like that's right right where i'm glad i watched it but i'm on the precipice of being like i feel like i wasted a little time here watching nine or ten episodes
Starting point is 00:14:29 of this i could have been watching a seven out of ten different grades six and a half and ten's not a d for me five out of ten is average exactly yeah that's me too like like five out of ten is like i usually don't waste my time with a show that i just feel like is average like uh designated survivor i feel like it's a five you know that keifer sutherland show where he's the president even the first season which is the best season it's still like a five five and a half although the first couple episodes is a seven or so yeah it it it really hangs a tad on that premise of it did not everybody's out at all yeah the second that premise it did not everybody out at all yeah the second that the explosion happened i was like oh this could be tight and then over the next 15 to 20 minutes i'm like wow a lot of potential
Starting point is 00:15:13 squandered here and i turned it off it was like this is such a cool prem it's the same way that like i thought about westworld is westworld had such a cool premise that through the first season i kept trying to convince myself that it was actually good. After a while, I try to watch one episode in the second season. I'm just like, man, I'm really just trying to like this show more than I'm enjoying it. This is pretty dumb. I'm with you on Westworld, but I blame me.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Westworld is a show that requires your full attention. You shouldn't be reading Reddit while Westworld is playing. I didn't give it a fair shot you want to talk about a show that's going to require your full attention lord of the rings the witcher oh when you whenever you decide to tackle the witcher you better turn that reddit off man are you going to get lost the tv the tv show on netflix i didn't know what it was i only
Starting point is 00:16:00 heard that it i knew it was huge i didn't know if it was a yeah you know superman ex-superman um it's just incredibly ripped he was already ripped right because he was superman but he went on like a fitness regimen for this and uh show no it's a fantasy it's it's in the same there are elves there's magic there's uh witches a witcher there are witches but our main character is a witcher which is like a mutant human who's immune to magic and super strong and sort of immortal and he's like a he's a superhuman you know his oh i'm sorry does the tv show have the same plot as any of the video games like are they recreating it um no i think well all right so you're going to see the same characters but i think they're going in a different direction
Starting point is 00:16:49 than the video game i didn't play a ton of uh of wild hunt i didn't i really didn't i played maybe four hours of it or something like that and i don't remember what some other game came out and i got like caught up in that and never went back to the witcher i did like it though it you know it's a good game but But I don't think it follows that plot line. ABC down down the lane. And one of the things that can be confusing, and I don't think it's a spoiler at all that warn people of this is it doesn't have a timeline that's linear, they're going to move around a little bit. And it's extra confusing at times because your main character, the Witcher Henry Cav, doesn't age, right?
Starting point is 00:17:25 So he's gonna appear the same to you as he did last episode. But wait a minute, isn't that the lady who died in like the first episode? Yes, it is, because we just went back in time 15 years and you got no warning. I don't know that that's great storytelling. Maybe I'm missing some reason not to know that,
Starting point is 00:17:44 but give me the black screen with the print 15 years prior. You know me. Usually I look, I don't like being spoon fed and I like figuring things out. And I did figure this out. Like I figured it out 10 minutes into that episode. I was like, all right, wait a minute. Okay, now I recognize both of these characters.
Starting point is 00:18:02 I get it. They went back in time, but still I was like, nah, they would have told me. They would have told me, right? Like, come on. But no, they don't tell you. So be prepared for a nonlinear storyline and just try to like memorize some faces.
Starting point is 00:18:19 You're not going to memorize the names. That's the other thing that'll make this difficult. The same way the third body problem was difficult for me because of the Chinese names and not even being able to tell gender based on Chinese names. I can't. This is a bit difficult because of the fantastical names that these characters have, like Geralt of Rivia, our main character is has the most normal name in the fucking show. Everybody else is Siri or Montauk the Great or Gallipia or Yennefer. if you haven't if
Starting point is 00:18:47 you're not really into the lore already and i'm not you can get a little caught in the weeds i'm what a lazy name jennifer for three body problem i had to cheat because um the audiobook was read so well i feel like i learned their voices more than their names their names were all some variant of zhu zha zhong something i don't know one thing you will appreciate so much titty so much so many titties all day long titties great titties even there's a hunchback character she's like simple remember simple jack from uh from tropic thunder that where where ben stiller had had gotten had had not gotten an Oscar because he played he went full retard. Okay, that's simple jack character. She's like simple Jill. All right. And I'm not gonna spoil like her. Her whole story or anything, but you're just like, God damn,
Starting point is 00:19:36 this chick is Oh, titties. Well, one part of her was created correctly. Her race is out Christian.ed and her spine is literally like she's a hunchback and she's crawling through pig shit, but then later on she gets naked and you're like, well, I could look past that hunchback. I gotta say, because usually bending forward is not the best look
Starting point is 00:19:58 for titties. She's like laying back. Oh, okay. I was gonna say. In stirrups. Because if she's attention grabbingly good while bending forward, she's like that's how you have a jaw thing she has yeah it's like off to the left or right and we have a lot he did a an interview and Norton show maybe I forget the guys he's like a British dude Norton show anyway yeah is it not Ed though He's an American actor. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Anyway, he was talking about preparing for that, and he drained water out of himself in a way that, like, it might be more intense than UFC fighters. He's like, I had a half a liter of water three days before. One day before, I had, like, you know. I think it was a liter, a half a liter, and then I think it was a liter, a half liter. It was a liter, a half, and then you saw it. And then no water on the day before,
Starting point is 00:20:50 no water the day before, none. And then the day of, obviously no water then too. He's like, and sometimes they film at night. So it's two days without water almost. And I'm just like, God, that's, that's. He looked good though. I need to see it. I only saw clips, and I was like,
Starting point is 00:21:07 he didn't look UFC good for me. Maybe he does. I don't know. I think he looks like a real contender for 170 pounds. Okay. Look out, Usman. Like, this guy is looking ripped. Yeah, I like it.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Don't think it's going to be Game of Thrones early seasons, but it's certainly better than Game of Thrones Season 8. I'll say that. That does not take much. They do have a big battle scene that I felt like was pretty fucking decent for early on when budgets may or may not be kind of tight. I doubt they're shelling out
Starting point is 00:21:39 hundreds of millions of dollars for this shit. There's a pretty good battle scene, and the fight choreography is excellent. I want to say the Night King from Game of Thrones is the fight coordinator on this show. Someone was like, just so you know, the fight coordinator for The Witcher
Starting point is 00:21:55 was the Night King. Just let that missed potential sink in for a moment. I was like, oh my god, yeah. You're telling me the Night King can fight like this? we didn't and he didn't do like it it made it worse that the act apparently the actor who played the night king is just a complete badass with a sword um because henry cavill has a really great street fight with a sword um where he fights maybe eight ten men and it's it looks very good. Does he have spells?
Starting point is 00:22:28 Really simple ones. Sort of like a force push. He can do that. That's a good spell though. Yeah, it comes in handy. But a witcher's job is essentially, he's a monster hunter for hire. He travels around looking for all sorts of weird monsters and fighting them and getting paid.
Starting point is 00:22:43 Is this like a book that became a game? It's based on a TV show called Supernatural. Yeah, pretty much, Taylor. I'm going to say, but there is a lot of magic in the show and there's a lot of fantasy elements. There's wizards. There's a lot of
Starting point is 00:23:01 stuff going on. I like it. I'm gonna stick with it. I'm only four or five episodes in. Are they hour long? I think so. Yeah. I'm caught up on Mandalorian,
Starting point is 00:23:14 unless there's a new one today. That was the finale, I thought. Oh, no, it was the penultimate. Yeah, yeah. Right, right. All right. So there should be one more. And like you said said it was pretty good
Starting point is 00:23:26 it and then also some of the previous characters we met were in it so it they brought them back and made those episodes feel less wasted perfect yeah so i'm i'm happy but i still see mandalorian it's just an above average show that was pitched as not pitched by the studio but like my facebook and the people in my universe as like you know the next cultural movement and that's the problem with star wars the expectation is always that this is going to impact western culture which is huge right like star wars did that how many movies have impacted western culture by like at large um maybe all the marvels put together kind of uh there's probably maybe star trek everything put together is like part of western culture there's not many things
Starting point is 00:24:19 that like you know entertainment-wise that that comprise our culture. Things where like the phrases within them seep into our lexicon. Like, oh, she's got her shields up. Luke, I am your father, which I think is a misquote, but it's close. And like that stuff, like there's the greatest turn in cinematic history and probably still is.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Like that's outrageous. And a reveal, the greatest reveal in cinematic history is the term harley used and i haven't thought of one that proves him wrong and uh so it's i'll tell you what the greatest like maybe it's just maybe it's more of a twist but it is an i am your father moment it's what's that movie where the guy is locked it's a japanese one where the guy is locked away for like 20 years he's imprisoned and and you don't know who's imprisoning him it's a japanese one where the guy is locked away for like 20 years he's imprisoned and and you don't know who's imprisoning him it's not jail it's not ip i didn't see that
Starting point is 00:25:10 but that's no that's different um and uh he gets out and then he finds out some i i think i'm going to spoil a great movie for you so i just won't go any farther i'll find the title of it all right um but yeah so every time a Star Wars comes out, and I've heard the most recent one is pretty good, you expect it to be culturally defining, and then it's actually just a good movie. It's good, but it falls short of massive expectations. So someone asked me in my live stream
Starting point is 00:25:40 for a binge-worthy show that's just good, right? It doesn't have to be game of thrones it's just like a a show that is brain candy that you enjoy i nailed the question silicon silicon valley i sometimes mix up that with cone but silicon valley it had its uh not season finale uh series finale it ended for good and they did a really good job with it I'm pretty happy with the way it ended. It was a I didn't see it coming I didn't know how they were gonna end it. They ended it at the right time like I didn't need a season 8 but a
Starting point is 00:26:15 season 7 came and went and It was Effective and not everyone ended like as happily ever after as you might hope they did and i appreciate it for that um you know like you kind of think they're all trying to start this startup and get rich and change the world and make it better and some of them kind of fall short of that goal and some of them don't and uh you know i would i would point someone at a show like the west wing because there's so much of it and it's all high quality and it's on Netflix. Old Boy is the name of the movie that I was thinking of
Starting point is 00:26:53 Old Boy, if you look at the reviews for Old Boy I bet on Rotten Tomatoes it's quite high. It's considered a very good movie and I really enjoyed it It's got one, it's got one of those really famous one take one shot, no cut fight scenes where he has a hammer and he's being like swarmed by guys. I may have seen that as a, like some of the subreddits I like raised good videography. I think that's why I saw it. Yeah, maybe so. Yeah, it's got a real crazy twist in it.
Starting point is 00:27:30 It's one of those twists where the character is like, Luke was like, no! But then like an hour later, he's like, well, all right, I guess we better fly out of here. In this movie, this guy is, when he finds out the thing, he's just, life's over now. Life's over now. You captured my interest, that's for sure.
Starting point is 00:27:51 Very interesting movie. Very interesting. So, I feel it's December 23rd, and I don't feel properly prepared for Christmas. It doesn't feel like Christmas. It doesn't feel like Christmas. It doesn't feel like Christmas at all. Here, it's a little chilly, but mostly it's raining.
Starting point is 00:28:12 We've got a flood warning here. I think we're going to get a couple more inches today or tonight, and they're worried about low-lying areas. I wasn't dreaming of a wet Christmas. This is depressing as fuck. Yeah, we're in basically the same weather system, but here it's more yucky than floody. That's how it is in my neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:28:31 It's yucky. But I had to drive an hour just then and back, and I saw some areas that it was like, oh, fuck, your yard's ruined. Damn, there's a lot of water standing around. When does probation end entirely? Maybe in like 10 months. I think I can apply to get out from under it
Starting point is 00:28:52 or maybe in a year in 10 months. Oh, so that's it. One to two years-ish. Yeah. And we're only two months out, right? Yeah, only two whole months in. Good stuff. I feel like I'm being insensitive, but I didn't mean to.
Starting point is 00:29:11 Nah, you aren't. I livestreamed last night. Had an okay time. I popped in for a minute. Oh, you did? You did, yeah. I got raided. Everyone started, I don't know calling
Starting point is 00:29:25 me a or something raid oh my god hey everyone yeah that's uh no we like i'm like santa i bring hordes of of and ruin chats yeah that's one of the most fun things to do on twitch when you're done just go basically ruin somebody else's chat like that that seems like that's what it actually is it's just having people show up two people rated me yesterday i the other one i wasn't familiar with them but their people all dropped uh like emoticons in the chat it It was just like, oh, alright, so I don't know how to interact with pictures and things. That's certainly a funny emote.
Starting point is 00:30:11 You should go full cringy. That emote was on fleek. Ah, right. It's smacks. My chat has convinced me that it's slaps. If something slaps, then it's very good. That's smacks.
Starting point is 00:30:28 I should just say smacks. This is like that episode of the office where like he's like now remember the black phrases i told you yeah that smacks yeah we were so good i just started saying different things slapped like all stream long and it was super cringy, but that's I'm gonna start taking all of my vernacular from black Twitter Doing that thing they do in rap songs where they go for no apparent reason When do they do that all the time? Like how it's it's like an hour day. Little John was come out and go Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:09 And but now, okay, yeah, there you go. And I'm sure to like our parents, they're like, what is what is so happy about? What is he agreeing to? But now I was I think Cardi B was on the radio and she's just she's rapping and then all of a sudden, and I was like, was that a pigeon? Or was that a person imitating a pigeon? Is Cardi B an actual prostitute that they just made into a star? She was an actual stripper who would lure men into hotel rooms with the promise of sex for money and then
Starting point is 00:31:39 drug them. Damn, that shit slaps. Woo! them damn that that shit slaps I'm googling now for images now it's so many headshots I don't want to see your head bitch I'm having sex with your face through most of it. Oh, here's one. Pretty fit. I wouldn't know Cardi B if we were in the elevator together. She looks like she's got some Asian in her. Yeah, I think one of her lyrics was
Starting point is 00:32:15 that she puts a bow on her box because that shit is gifted. That's a good line. I like that. That was pretty good, I thought. That would be a good pubic I like that. That was pretty good, I thought. Yeah. That would be a good pubic hair pattern. A bow?
Starting point is 00:32:29 Yeah. Shave that shit into a bow? I like it. Yeah. There's something... There's something about her face. A little uncanny valley-ish. Her nose. It's too thin. Yeah. I don don't know i don't really know what she
Starting point is 00:32:48 looks like i uh i listened to her howard stern interview and she sounded like a person um who had some wits about her and then but then the more i learn about her the more um of a terrible human being she seems to actually be having some wits about you is a really attractive quality like britney Spears used to interview, and she was so witless. It kind of seemed like a character she was playing. You know, she's just chewing gum with her mouth open, not knowing anything about anything.
Starting point is 00:33:18 And it's like, ah, this is not doing it. I liked that because I even knew as a kid. I was like, damn damn i could manipulate her so easy oh she married a man named the bathroom snake bit my penis again you need to suck it up oh no not again bathroom snake situation under control i don't know where's she from i think she's from uh Alabama or somewhere like that. Yeah, she's from the South. I think she is from the South. Yeah, makes sense. How old is she now?
Starting point is 00:33:52 I'm going to guess 37. 38. 38. Smoking hot 38, when she needs to be. When those fitness trainers get a hold of her right before a tour she looks great right or a tour might be a lot to ask for but a day if she's doing an award show it could be it can be fit for a day i wonder what it takes like if i just drained all the water out of myself i certainly wouldn't look like the witch, but what would I look like? You would be dead. Okay. Maybe not all the water. Just the trouble water spots.
Starting point is 00:34:34 There's so much water around here. Can we spot drain this area? Getting a good bit of thigh water. Ass water. You're like, wait, is that what this is? It's water right there?
Starting point is 00:34:50 Water on the brain. Yeah. Yeah, you'd probably look pretty good. Yeah. Henry Cavill. Cut out the water. That's what all the health experts are saying. Less water.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Yeah. Almost none. To a man. Almost none it it's like salt with diet mug root beer did you see um i didn't even watch the video but athlean x was like you know how to get 5.5 body fat i just like oh you i'm not watching this but he looked lean oh I bet yeah it probably looked fantastic but so many of those videos are like how to get totally ripped like this guy and then it'll be like it's pretty easy all you have to do is quit your job full-time training uh have a chef have uh you know no obligations and work out three times a day for 90 minutes each and it's like this
Starting point is 00:35:45 i yeah i do three two hour workouts and i eat celery that's it yeah i eat celery and protein powder meal replacement shakes and that's it nah i don't think you can afford that if you're going for five percent how many miles is he running a day like is he literally running eight ten miles a day now I'm curious enough I kind of do want to watch the video but he's so thin like he looks thinner than UFC fighters on weigh-in like he's super skinny he cuts weight for videos that might sound ridiculous to some people but do you think he's actually cutting water for and like dehydrating himself somewhat for his video he'd be a fool if he wasn't. If he's not getting a pump and cutting a little bit of water,
Starting point is 00:36:28 does he have a fitness line of products or anything like that? He does have a fitness line of products. Dude's cutting weight for videos. Oh, here it is, and it's not 5.5%, I exaggerated. He's 5.3%. And I hope you guys just get to see the omni. Yeah, yeah, dude, that guy's dehydrated himself there. And I hope you guys just get to see the thumbnail. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Yeah, dude. That guy's dehydrated himself there. There's just too much striation. Yeah. He's definitely got a pump on. And I'm going to say this. He doesn't look healthy in his face. Right?
Starting point is 00:36:57 He looks gaunt in his face. I wonder what his nose routine is. Is there an easy way to see the thumbnail during a YouTube video? A lot of farmers carries. A lot of farmers carries. A lot of farmers carries. That's all it is. You gotta stretch it out. On the nose.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Yeah. You need one of those rings, like a bowl. He's looking, yeah, you're right, under the cheekbone. Right, he looks dehydrated for this. I kinda, it says how to get this lean year round. Is he 5.3% year round? Bro, you're overdoing it. This is too much. I'd be stoked to be at 10%, 15%.
Starting point is 00:37:32 I think he would look better if he had... 20 might look good on me. I'd happily go down to 20 right now. I think he'd look better if he had a couple percentages. He looks like if you took that face and you put it on a cancer body, like a person dying in a bed of leukemia, you'd be like, yeah, yeah, I can tell.
Starting point is 00:37:53 He looks like Cricket. It's like season four Cricket. And he picked that angle. This is one of those accidental photos from reddit we're like whoops like like you know what people fucking like suck the worst people are when they see pictures like this and their first response is like oh that's so gross
Starting point is 00:38:18 that's so gross and it's like do you have any idea how much commitment that takes? How much discipline? How much work and effort? You can't buy it. That's definitely men and women who are like, oh, that's just too fit. That's too athletic. That shows too much potential. It's like, come on.
Starting point is 00:38:38 You got to respect that. I do respect it for sure. He has created a human sculpture out of himself and and The chisel was fucking dumbbells, but still like this isn't his best look That's what I say and being fitter is not his best look What a quote like improving his current fitness is not his best look I like like I feel like he looks a little ill in his face. His body looks extraordinary. His body looks great. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:06 He looks like Rocky to Sylvester Stallone or something like that. It's absurd. But his face looks a little bad. Schwarzenegger said this. I can't do a Schwarzenegger accent, but, a well-built physique is a status symbol. It reflects you worked hard for it. No money can buy it. You can't borrow it, you can't inherit it, and you can't steal it no money can buy it you can't borrow it you can't inherit it and you can't steal it you can't hold on to it without constant work it shows discipline it shows self respect it shows patience work ethic and passion that is why i do what i do donald schwarzenegger and it's just like yeah yeah you know the wealthiest people in the world
Starting point is 00:39:40 take warren buffett bill gates suck at push-ups that amazon guy seems like he uh he bought some shit he does look pretty good there's also a there's a gary v he exercises a lot um his trainers can't keep up with him that's interesting you know like uh he has two trainers and what they go six months on six months off so they like alter date and that's weird well it like it ruins your life to be Gary Vee's trainer he's like all right 4 a.m. we're starting our day we got a workout I believe that we're going to Italy we're good he travels around the world so much they're like you can't have a normal life if you're this guy's training because you're I mean it's trainer but it's like almost fitness servant, you know, like
Starting point is 00:40:26 I need an exercise for you anytime you need one anywhere in the world. I'm following you around. And they're like, you can't be married and have a wife and a kid. My gutters leak. And, you know, so they need to trade off because, you know, hard to be at this guy's side. But he's a fit dude. He's worth nine digits, I think. Yeah. Yeah, I'd never heard of this guy. He's worth like $200 million. Good for him.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Yeah, that's nine. I think it is. Yeah. That's more digits than you need. Yeah. Not too many digits. Eight digits is... You're pretty good with eight, I think.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Yeah, I'd be pretty stoked on seven it's always even six i think you're there but all right playing with a guy the other night he was like 42 i was like 42 what dollars left in the chicken and i was like what are you doing here with me why are you here you should should be at McDonald's. You could get anything. You got to go find a side hustle or something, my friend. How are you not stressed out?
Starting point is 00:41:34 I was like, what do you mean? I think I have that much change in a bucket by my couch. I could find that much in old jeans probably. What did he say? Was he bitching about it or just kind of and I'm sure he was a young guy. He sounded like a grown ass man with grown man things going on.
Starting point is 00:41:57 This was not a child. I don't play with children. Most of these dudes I play with minimum is like 20. Most of them are 25 or 30. so he was not in the age bracket that has 40 problems he is definitely in the age bracket that has 40 problems and he's he's proof positive of it two ways to approach that question yeah yeah yeah i i was like god damn what and i was thinking, why are you here with me?
Starting point is 00:42:26 Because we're about to play three hours of Tarkov here. Yeah. Maybe get a pressure washer or something. It's the holidays. Why aren't you scraping driveways or something? Don't you have kids? He does have kids, by the way. You could make $40 scraping your neighbor's yard.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Not just your neighbor's yard. They wouldn't appreciate that. Their driveway. Sometimes. Yeah. Look at my yard. He scraped the shit out of it. All the grass is gone. Smooth mud. Yes. Families can kind of run on empty around Christmas time.
Starting point is 00:43:00 Don't worry. I got it by the root. I did. I put salt down in your entire yard. You don't have to worry about slipping in that grass. It's not coming back. You just permanently ruined someone's yard by sowing it with salt. I took
Starting point is 00:43:19 care of that yard like a Sumerian. It's never coming back. I salted Jackie's garden once on purpose no so we have um pool salt right so we keep pool salt and around people haven't seen it lately but jackie's worked really hard on the landscaping around the pool over the past couple of years and i picked up the salt and as i'm, like, it's like eight feet wide, like an area of plants that she maintains. They're walkable plants with rocks.
Starting point is 00:43:51 Anyway, 50 pounds of salt, just like whoosh. And I'm like, no, this is the worst thing I could do. Like, it's the worst. And I spent, like, the next hour she helped too we like so it's easy to get like the first 46 pounds out you know yeah you just sort of shovel it and then the last four like shot back oh shot back would have been a good move i think but i kind of scraped the top layer just like yeah not even a lot like the top centimeter of dirt and the stick things grow there so I guess we did a good job yeah but I was like I literally
Starting point is 00:44:29 solved it for landscaping it's terrible what why does salt kill plants make it so they can't grow it's like fuck with just make it so they can't get nutrients or something actually I have no idea I I don't know the biology behind it. Does it dehydrate them? They just dislike it? They don't seem to like it. It's the premise of idiocracy. It's an old school style
Starting point is 00:44:56 punishment. Vengeance kind of thing. Like the Israelites did in the Old Testament. Sowing land with salt. It always confused me. Don't you want to take their land right if you beat some some tribes ass you don't immediately go yeah and we're ruining everything they had yeah all this land that we just earned through battle let's wreck it yeah i think i think what they wanted to do was conquer a people and force them to become part of
Starting point is 00:45:27 their empire. The Sumerians would pull up out front and they'd have the captured victims of the previous city with all their arms and legs broken, shoved into tight cages and be like, look, these people didn't surrender. You can surrender. Surrendering just means you become one of us. Give us all of your fighting age males. We're going to hook them up with some cool armor, and they're going to ride on with us to the next city.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Or the cage. And the people who chose the cage, that's what happened to their lands. Do your helmets have feathers on top? I'm thinking about your offer. Bring your own feathers. That's our deal. thinking about your offer bring your own feathers that's our deal it's like the year 4000 bc like get in the army like actually i'm i'm gay it's like oh never mind then it's a cage with you right this way we actually just don't want you around at all yeah it's just go away do really i feel like they'd be like oh you're gay we're all gay you like you like little kids right because that's how we roll here in Greece.
Starting point is 00:46:27 Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I'm pretty sure that up until like, I don't know, nine years ago, all of humanity was like notoriously not cool with people being gay. I'm going the other way, like back in the ancient Greek stuff, like Socrates and weren't they all boy fuckers? i was looking that up because i had that same thought and it turns out that's like very much an exaggerated thing about the greeks is like like i thought that you like basically got assigned an older man to blow when you became of age at six but But that's not the way it works at all. Turns out they really, really did not like molesting kids.
Starting point is 00:47:08 No, they did that. When you went to the Agogi in Spartan culture, you would have like a mentor and you sort of had this romantic relationship. And he would teach you how to suck dick. He would teach you how to suck his dick, yeah. Yes, he would. Yes, he would. How does one teach,
Starting point is 00:47:22 or I guess that guy had to suck dick when he was young was young to see that's how a vicious cycle like that would would Continue because you're like seven years old like dude any other organizations that perpetuate these cycles hmm, I think every major religion there you go, yeah and Politics also toys are us toys are us. that's a verified fact Jared from Subway yet another way restaurants yes yes each and every one of them uh rape islands in the Caribbean you know it'd be easier if we've named organizations that weren't raping oddly the rape squad killers don't do anything at all. That's because that's not a real thing.
Starting point is 00:48:06 They're the real sweet kids. Yeah. I don't think Elon Musk has ever raped anybody. Probably not. I think he could. He seems like he'd have to come up with a robot about science. Too excited about like rockets and shit. And then all the women get bored and they're like this guy is lame remember that episode of uh saturday saturday night live with the rock is the guest star and they're having the big contest to see who has invented the most diabolical invention of the
Starting point is 00:48:34 year contest with all the mad scientists and the first guy's like i've got a freeze ray it'll i'm gonna freeze the world's monuments and then crumble them into ice. And the next lady get in there, but it's like, oh, diabolical. And the next guy comes up and he's like, I've got a shrink ray. I'm going to shrink the world's monuments and put them in a tiny little diorama. And the rocks like, well, everyone, my first year I created a robot and molest children. And they're like, oh, what the fuck? How do you even do that?
Starting point is 00:49:10 Well, it's easy. You just molest the robot a lot. And he carries on the cycle. And he's got a robot there, like standing there. And everybody's just like, that's horrible. There's like, I think some of you need dictionaries um this is the diabolical invention concept right you're just shrinking stuff this robot can molest children to rate unheard of
Starting point is 00:49:38 watch yes yeah that's that's a really funny bit i haven't i haven't seen that before that's really good do you watch that show regularly saturday Live? I watched the clips. I watched the clips You know you get the cream from it Eddie Murphy show was supposed to be good. The ratings are really high. Yeah I you know, I don't know. I don't know if he's funny anymore. He was funny that Dolomite movie I thought but I don't know if Eddie Murphy still got it or whatever. I i'd like to see him do some stand-up i'd love to see up a whole new hour from eddie murphy because it's been like long enough you know we talk about how like these right these specials degrade when you have to do one every year and keep up with like suddenly this special is based on the last six months experience yeah it doesn't work yeah and uh but eddie murphy's had like fucking
Starting point is 00:50:25 last special i saw him and he was wearing that red leather jumpsuit you know what i mean like it's been a while i want to say that eddie murphy considered stopping the stand-up career to be one of his career mistakes i forget where i saw that it might have been driving with comedians in cars yeah he he regrets not doing stand-up and wants to get back into it. He's been saying that for a while. I hope he does. He's definitely... You can kind of tell when someone's got a new marketing agency or when someone has hired a marketing
Starting point is 00:50:55 agent. Ninja. Ninja just signed something with somebody and he has some representation now and he's everywhere. He's in a jacuzzi something with somebody and he has some representation now and he's every fucking where he's in a jacuzzi with kevin hart and he's like riding in that red bull car like he's everywhere in in the and i'm sure they're all part of a big network together of incestuous cross promotion of course um and uh i feel like eddie murphy is kind of
Starting point is 00:51:22 pushing his name right now because I see him out a lot. You know, obviously he could have been on Saturday Night Live anytime in the last 15 or 20 years, but he's choosing now. He also looks like he's gotten fitter and he just did that movie and I think he's got another movie. So he's definitely, you know, got the pedal down. I hadn't looked at it through that lens, but yeah, I bet you're right about everything you said. Yeah, Ninja's really out there a lot right now. I keep seeing him in like all sorts of stuff. What's Ninja's, I mean, if you're working with your Ninja
Starting point is 00:51:54 yourself, what's the goal there? Because it used to be like, if you could get out of YouTube and onto TV, ho-ho, you've arrived. But now I'm like, fucker's signing, I'm making this up. $10 million, $50 million contracts. Who knows? The money he pours in,
Starting point is 00:52:12 this guy's making another million every month. He's just trying to bring more eyes to his brand and they're exchanging eyes. That's the whole thing with his collaborations. I want to say he was literally in a jacuzzi with Kevin Hart. Just keep doing what he's doing and but earn even more at it because like i think he makes more than the people made on friends right he's a more profitable person than joey yeah probably so i i really don't know the ins and outs of his business i i think it's more about establishing himself as just a a person who people want to see do anything
Starting point is 00:52:46 and then he can do anything and then maybe he doesn't have to play fortnight forever I didn't know he was so big on youtube too I was just looking at his stuff it's got 22 million subscribers yeah that is big like I thought he was just a streaming streaming boy but I think good for him so this might be my bias like you're the kind of character I like I but I see shroud was just a streaming boy. I think... Good for him. So this might be my bias. I think the kind of character I like. I see Shroud as having a more long-term career. Because he's not a gimmick. It's just Shroud.
Starting point is 00:53:14 Here's a guy who's really good at this. To me, I feel like Shroud will endure for as long as Shroud chooses to endure. Whereas some of the other people that are put on more of a show, I feel like you'll have seen that show before. But, meh, I could be wrong. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:32 I don't know, I think both approaches work very well. They're both really rich guys. They're both good enough. Oh yeah, I think. In their own thing. Yeah, but I would, like, categories, there's more, like, you know, there's lots of guys who put on a show and do a thing.
Starting point is 00:53:46 And then there are other guys. Summit is the Sea of Thieves dude, right? Sure, yeah. He's like an OG Twitch guy. I feel like he's just being Summit and that'll last for as long as he chooses for it to last. But that... Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:00 He doesn't really put on a character or anything. You know, he's him, it seems like to me. Shroud's the same way. Shroud's certainly not a character or anything. You know, he's he's him. It seems like to me, it's the same way. Shroud's certainly not a character of any kind. Right, right. So he has personality. I think some people people, one of the criticisms is like, oh, you don't have any personality. And someone said that to him the other day.
Starting point is 00:54:18 And he was like, oh, what you mean? Because I'm not screaming and jumping up and down right now. Yeah, that seems to be Shroud. Yeah. He's like, you know, i react when i have a genuine reaction otherwise you know right now we're just just fucking shit up yeah i saw shroud at call of duty by a guy who was very good and to watch shroud give credit to this guy was endearing in itself like i don't need Shroud to be the best on the in the whole world all the time but they were playing 2v2s and he was playing with a person who wasn't at Shroud's level all right cool so it was like me and Sandy playing together
Starting point is 00:54:56 and this other guy it was a sniping round and in 2v2s for people that don't know everyone starts with the same weapon and you know, and tacticals and everything, and then you just play. Until someone, until the team dies off. And this guy was drag scoping, hitting like the two pixels Shroud had exposed, and Shroud's responses were like, damn, that was perfect.
Starting point is 00:55:20 You know, that guy's, this guy's crushing me. And it's like, what, i couldn't think of a better way to deal with that situation you see shroud um like get that three three man kill with a desert eagle to win that uh competitive game the other day no it was like a it was competitive players playing and streaming the whole thing there were announcers i don't know the name of the tournament it was cold duty though and he kills the last three people with a Desert Eagle rapid fire. It was outrageous. It was outrageous.
Starting point is 00:55:49 And the guy's like, what happened? Oh, it's Shroud. That's what happened. He did a video with Linus Tech Tips. I forget. I forget Linus' full name. LTT. And so they were comparing monitors
Starting point is 00:56:05 and the impact of 60, 144, and 240 hertz. And they had gamers of different skill levels, current pros, Shroud. There was even one that represented like dads, you know, guys who were where I am. And how the different hertz affected the different players. And Shroud described himself as not being in his heyday anymore.
Starting point is 00:56:24 You know, he thinks that when he was playing cs go at a competitive level at a professional level that that's when he was personally the best at gaming now he's something different he's just a really good player that streams and uh even that was endearing to me it's like what you're not in your heyday? Because it looks hayish over there by my standards. I have this clip if you want to watch it. It's kind of short and it even has text at the beginning to sort of explain what we're watching. Okay. Just one second.
Starting point is 00:56:56 I'll set up this. I am ready. I am ready. This will work. All right. I'm going to read it for the audio people. a live COD event. The event includes games featuring some of the biggest streamers like Shroud, Disre... Oh. During a search game, Shroud and his squad were on the verge of losing. That is until Shroud pulled this ridiculous, or ludicrous
Starting point is 00:57:32 1v3. Nice. We ready? Oh. I'm playing it. There it is. Just nuts. I wish I paid attention to who he beat, too.
Starting point is 00:58:02 Like, it would have been interesting if I knew them we've got Stone Mountain on his team listen boys let's come back Stone Mountain of Call of Duty I'm sorry pka advertising fame yeah it's ridiculous I mean the first one of those kills is the coolest one jump in and doing the little loop-de-loop. Dude, sometimes I think that I'm getting better at COD, right? I try not to say good, but like, oh, look, I'm zapping on every target I want. Things are going well. Oh, look, now I'm doing that while strafing side to side.
Starting point is 00:58:39 And then I play against some other guy who, like, sideways strafe, crouch jumps through a window, slides across the ground while still being on target. And I'm like, oh, never mind. I'm not good. I take it all back. This guy's, I thought I was good at, like, I have so much time in Minecraft. I can move around in WASD without thinking. Like a lot of people can.
Starting point is 00:59:02 But when you start shooting and, you you know it's not a platformer anymore it's about strafing and sliding and jumping and windows and mounting uh suddenly it's like oh you know it's actually more than just the four keys they call it was d but they mean all these keys so yeah there's um in tarkov you can you know normal every other game you pretty much shoot from this position but tarkov there are controls so that you can do this with your gun like aim it around a corner or like up and over a piece of cover uh-huh i haven't mastered that that's not part of my uh my gameplay I've never heard of that mechanic. I don't know exactly what buttons they're pressing.
Starting point is 00:59:55 I could figure it out, but I'm struggling enough with just lean and peek and stuff that I'm already familiar with. But these guys will... There'll be a big box separating you and him, and he'll just put his gun up like this and shoot over the box and straight down at you. It adds a whole other skill level to that game it's when people are shooting a fucking round the corner at you like like line firing that's illegal in paintball kyle is standing for this cod is the first game i've leaned in to shoot and the way you do it is you walk up to something you press mount and then it kind of does it for you is that what the mechanic is like in pub g no not at all um you have uh you have keys um i i think uh for everybody else it's probably q and e um for me i have it on my mouse so i can do it with my thumb and uh that so that lets me strafe and uh and lean and peak uh I think better than any other way.
Starting point is 01:00:46 The problem with the cod leaning is you never know how much of you is being displayed to the other character. Now in PUBG, you can really slice the pie. You can put this much out there and just the tip of your barrel will go out there. But in cod, it's like mount. And depending on the surface, he's gonna like have a whole shoulder and an elbow out
Starting point is 01:01:04 or your whole hip or something like that. i don't use the lean feel like you're very hidden i uh sour you know sour he does great call of duty videos maybe the best ones right now in terms of learning and uh he was like see this spot on it's shantytown on shoot it shoot house i think that's what it's called but shantytown is the call out for that area and he's like you're not as hidden as you think you are everyone does this and I see him in two-thirds of the body is exposed and it's like yeah that's not what it feels like he's like I lean up in this box instead it looks stupid it's a it's a cube on the ground but he just stands next to it.
Starting point is 01:01:47 And then he shows you what the view is that the enemy would have. And it's like, fuck, it's so much better. And you just can't tell what you look like by your own camera. It's like a kid playing hide and go seek. Yeah, PUBG leaning is... Stand behind the curtain. PUBG leaning is actually legit.
Starting point is 01:02:02 And you can pop in and out. You sort of lean in and shoot, lean in and shoot. And so your very little view is exposed for a very small period of time. Call of Duty late leaning kind of sucks. So does mounting. You have to put it on your mouse too. I think so. I think what would be really cool is if I had it on pedals underneath me.
Starting point is 01:02:18 And when I press the right pedal, my guy would lean to the right. And the left, he'd go to the left and completely take that off my hands. You mentioned before, I might be paraphrasing here but something along the lines of like you know if i'm a blue or purple belt at shooters in general i'm a black belt at leaning and i'm like it might have been the idea to put it on his mouse and just like master that and have it more available that that helped you get better at it it's not that it's more available necessarily it's that i have the option to still straight, uh, strafe without fat fingering, like, like, because you've got to use Q and E to, to do the leaning while at the same time, um, A
Starting point is 01:02:54 and, uh, what would it be? A and W to like move back and forth and, and, you know, strafe left and right and everything. It's, it's when you combine those two things together and crouching up and down like trying to really be this weird sort of making an s with your character so he's not predictable i feel like it's easy if i have it on the mouse to combine all that shit together i mapped one of my mouse buttons to picking up a weapon off the ground and i'm particularly good at like switching weapons picking it off the ground and switching back to my primary so i have
Starting point is 01:03:30 something good for after i run out of rounds you know i just a couple more buttons on here maybe we can get a good idea you know yeah yeah tarkov has leaning as well i i went ahead and put it on my mouse on there too. Tarkov has a lot of controls that I've never seen in other games. Maybe they exist in games like Squad. Squad's another one of those mil-sim shooters that I'm not very familiar with. Maybe they exist over there, but I've played PUBG and Call of Duty and games like that, Halo. This is very different. Actually, I haven't played Halo on PC ever. I think I'm gonna when the next one comes out for sure. But I was watching Shroud play.
Starting point is 01:04:11 Whatever's out now, we were talking about this the other day, Reach, maybe? Reach is out. Yeah. It was a bit of nostalgia there, but I'm not drawn to go play that. Yeah, I'm not really... I'm not into that. Not nearly as much.
Starting point is 01:04:24 Not since Halo 2. Yeah, I want to play the campaigns. That's what I'm about. When 1, not into that. Not nearly as much. Not since Halo 2. Yeah, I want to play the campaigns. That's what I'm about. When 1, 2, and 3 come out, definitely want to play those campaigns. Reach doesn't have a campaign? Oh, maybe it does. I'm sure it does, actually.
Starting point is 01:04:35 But I don't care about that story. See, I don't know the story like you, so I might be the guy who benefits from what they're doing, you know, coming out and putting them in order. I want to say reach was like um like maybe the first planet the covenant took from us or maybe I think reach was like a really big military um base that we had like like away from earth and uh the covenant like glassed that planet and killed like a lot of Spartans that were there there was like a whole squad of Spartans and I'm pretty sure they all die.
Starting point is 01:05:05 And I think I want to say you play one of them or more and you know, trying to do these special operations just to like get out as well as you can while losing the planet still. But it's been, whenever that shit came out, it's the first time I played it. I might stream it and have Colin as one of my partners. I hope he likes it.
Starting point is 01:05:28 I think I'm gonna give Colin my old monitor, ultra wide. I think it's an upgrade for him. I'll try it and see if he likes it. Well, all right, then. Yeah. Oh shit, this whole time I used the wrong, ah, who knows, the wrong layout. It's not important.
Starting point is 01:05:44 It'll just say PKA instead of PKN. The whole time I've been recording my desktop. Look at that. No, no, no. They're not going to like that. Everything's fine. I think I switched to like a big screen because we shared some stuff. And one of those times I went back to PKA instead of PKN.
Starting point is 01:06:00 People will notice, but it'll be okay. It'll be all right. All righty then. I hope you guys are doing this early, P.K. Because of Taylor's holiday obligations, we jumped in here at 3.30 p.m. on a Monday and made that happen for you. Yeah, very much appreciated to my two boys
Starting point is 01:06:16 for helping make that happen. Yeah, I'm flexible. P.K. in, 279.
