Painkiller Already - PKN 492

Episode Date: January 24, 2024

pkn 492 how are you boys it's corinthian leather coral it's corinthian leather coral yeah we're talking about walking dead brain integrations right before the show started i i need to check in woody yeah what's the what's the news on the the seizure front no more yeah no no more i'm good good i knew i was right to ignore it. I laid hands upon him. You lay hands on him? See, I got blurry there? That was the Lord. I got this vibe that people were talking about it.

I don't check the subreddit or anything, but Wings of Redemption reached out to me on Facebook. My mom called me while I was working on the fish tank or something. something was a bad time until wings he caused it wings he caused it yeah yeah you're like you know it's because of you i was worried about that 10 grand you're demanding yeah so oh i thought about that remember i guess he told harley that we owed him money i was like that is insane we definitely don't we paid him money. I was like, that is insane. We definitely don't. We paid him everything. Now I kind of remember after he left the show,

he felt entitled to revenues from shows that he wasn't on. In the future, he wanted revenue from today. He thinks we owe him for shows he's not on. I think he would rather We keep talking about him Perpetually So he says silly things That's probably true No more seizure

When the troll channels don't even care anymore He throws an insult at us I think What I've heard When your brain survives a seizure It comes back stronger than ever I mean people are saying that I heard the opposite What I've heard, when your brain survives a seizure, it comes back stronger than ever. I mean, people are saying that.

Yeah. I heard the opposite. I actually heard. They shoot you up with a seizure vaccine. It sees out. Now your body knows how to handle it. Next time it happens, you're going to fall on that soft, foamy carpet that you put on the outside of the shower. Oh, it's so comfortable. carpet that you put on the outside of the shower.

It's so comfortable. I was thinking it was more like a Pio Mai situation where, oh, she'll bounce back this time, but it takes a little out of them every time. Pio Mai? I don't think I get this right.

The horse. It bounced back sick all the time The Supreme. Oh, you know, sick all the time. Bills, you know, eventually a little house fire is going to horses are a good way to spend money. I don't want to touch that shit.

I mean, they did nothing but make money, right? I mean, they had to buy some shoes and send a vet late one night, but they act like the pie. Oh, my horse situation was this huge money pit.

It seemed like they constantly made money hand over fist. And by the end they took home like 200 grand in insurance money. Yeah. I was going to say, didn't they murder the horse at the end to like get out of their problem? They did not. Ralphie had that horse fucking cooked alive by Joey DeMetto or whatever the fuck his arson guy.

Tony's interesting in Tony Soprano in that he, he's an awful person who will happily murder and torture people but the soft spot he has for ducks and horses okay interesting guy yeah it's a sociopath thing horses like i don't know how much horses cost like if you want to buy a racehorse i'm sure it's absurdly expensive but i know that like dave portnoy is at the level of wealth that he does that now because i guess he's worth like half a billion probably more than that and we'll buy horses and i i follow him on twitter and he's like a absurd gambling addict seemingly like the dude doesn't seem like drugs are his thing doesn't seem like

booze is his thing that dude loves gambling and so like often he'll tweet out and be like i'm putting three hundred thousand dollars on the cowboys to win this game if there's ever been a lock it's this one and he'll like he'll like tweet out the gambling it's like that like because a lot of people i guess in the game i don't follow i don't gamble so i don't follow that world and i guess it's a common thing for people who give picks to be like retroactively like yeah i put 10 grand on that one and people are like show me the slip where's the bet slip show me the proof and he'll like tweet out the bet slip with it and sometimes like i think it was the cowboys game within like four or five minutes of kickoff he's like

flurry of tweets like worst decision ever zero percent chance i'm getting this back 300 grand grand down the drain wow like i saw him talking about his gambling and he's in someone like who worked for his company was like dave like what do you think you are overall? And a lot of gamblers will be like, oh, I'm up. Oh, yeah, I'm up. He was like, dude, I'm so far down that if I won $20 million bets in a row, I think I'm very in the hole in my gambling world. Like tens of millions of dollars. Because it's not exciting anymore to bet $10,000 if you're worth $700 million.

He should have an in somewhere. Someone should be, Dave, tonight's the night. Trailblazers, we're beating it easy. Thank you so much. I don't know if that's a different word. How does he not have an in somewhere that he's lost tens of millions? I hear that sports are fixed all the time, but if David Portnoy is on the outside, is it fixed or not?

I mean, that guy is on the inside. I don't know. I don't know if I'd tell David Portnoy if I had a vast. He does own Barstool Sports, but a lot of Barstool's initial popularity was from him ruthlessly picking on and mocking roger goodell the commissioner of the nfl and so if there was a email list of like all right send this one out to the bezos boys and musk and all that like they wouldn't put

portnoy on it they'd have him they'd be sending him false information i get the uh i always get the sense that dana white is a very good gambler and that um so they say what's his name drake that drake is like the worst gambler of all time drake get so for one thing drake is uh sponsored by one of the draft kings or somebody and so there's some contention on whether or not he's even placing real bets because if draft king's paying drake to be their guy and tweet about, then the money he's gambling with is likely to marketing. He's betting a hundred thousand. He's probably betting 10,000 of his own money.

And there, and 90,000 of it is from DraftKings where who he's betting against because they're happy to see him tweet out. Oh my God, did you see fucking Drake put a quarter million on this guy to win? And he often does that. And where do you do it? Oh,

we're at DraftKings.com. Let's hurry over, too. When they're predicting who's going to win fights, there's a... Have you ever heard of the inverse Kramer index? No. Yes. Okay, yeah. So Kramer is a guy on CNBC who picks stocks.

And Mad Money is his TV show. Anyway, apparently he's terrible. I don't know this. And they say like, just do the opposite of what he suggests you do. And there's a lot of money to be made. Well,

that exists in the betting world with Chael Sonnen, a former fighter and Drake. If you bet against those guys, just do the opposite of what they tell you to make some money. Historically. Anyway, I don't know what happens going forward. No, that makes sense. I saw, I'll get into gambling. Historically, anyway, I don't know what happens going forward. Let's all get into gambling.

I saw the Chiefs. Just keep it petty. I saw the Chiefs overcame their arch rivals. The Buffalo Bills. It looked like the guy missed a field goal that he probably shouldn't have made that basically gave the game to the Chiefs.

I saw – is it Travis? Which one's the big fat one? Jason is the fat one. Yeah, Jason. I saw Jason take his shirt off like a fucking loser and flex on TV. That was so cringy. Oh, he was just drunk and excited for his brother i looked at him very differently there's a blast and everybody loves him he's a lot of fun to be

around yeah did you see him jump out the window to hang out with the crowd then jump back in yeah he's pretty athletic yeah i don't know why i was surprised that a current nfl player was athletic but to look at him he looks like the guy who would struggle to climb over a turnstile. And this guy's jumping in and out of that window. Like it was easy. Yeah. Zach says he's retired. That's not announced.

Yeah, he retired. I'd rather see his podcast. He says he intentionally didn't make an announcement, but I feel like he made an announcement like three days ago and said, I'm retired, but, but I could be wrong.

I don't follow it too close. Okay. But you didn't follow it too closely. But you didn't like him jumping around. If I was in the NFL, I don't care either. But I liked that the Chiefs won because it's the Missouri team. And if you were in the NFL and you had a brother and you were watching your brother's game, you're going to be rooting so hard for him to win. You're going to be having a fun time. You're gonna be having some some beers or getting high when we were kids when we were kids

and we would you know act poorly in public my mom or my dad whispered to us act like you've been here before that's funny don't say don't you haven't been here before don't walk into fucking longhorn and act like oh my god can you believe it daddy they have so much free bread here you're making everybody look bad all right act like we have seen bread before and we're not impressed by its freeness okay everybody act like you've been here before so everyone doesn't realize that we don't belong here maybe all right so more so i see it that way it's like don't have a fucking meltdown. Oh, is this the first Super Bowl he's been to since last year? 11 months ago.

Great. Wait, weren't you in that one too? Yeah, I was there. It was crazy. Sit down and have one less beer. Have a water. Go talk to Taylor about how to conduct yourself in public. We're white people, okay?

We do things a little different. I love that you come at it from that angle. Like, behave like a white. A white. Sit up there with your little handheld monocle thing or whatever those are. Did you ever see a Manning brother rip his T-shirt off? No. He was sitting there trying to figure out his next analyst job to make another $100 million.

I wonder if Papa John's a do-well in the Midwest. That's what those people do. Those are real whites. These Kelsey brothers, I don't know. I like them because one of them's the best player on the Chiefs other than the best player who's the quarterback. The other one seems to really like his brother. There's a real white. The Chiefs quarterback

and I am very close to my brother. If we had a Chappelle show racial draft, that guy's one of us. The Kelsey brothers are both Hall of Famers. They're awesome. Yeah. Or so I'm told. You don't have brothers, Kyle. You don't get it. Of course I have brothers.

When you're real close with your brothers, you're rooting for them with everything. Like me and my brother. I met him that one time when I was like seven. Good guy. Oh, the one random brother? you have a frankito of your own in your family dude i 100 have a fucking frankito i'm really hoping that like wolf cola doesn't all go to him someday help me out what is kyle's brother situation i feel like i have gotten the lure uh for my dad's like a half brother, right? Yeah, my dad. My dad's been married three times.

My mother was the third marriage. I think your dad's really good at getting married. Isn't your brother, though? So like one of those age gaps where like there wasn't ever a reason for you to get to know him. Like, isn't he way older than? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Like he was a grown man with his own virgining family when I was just

old enough to start forming memories. When I was four or five or six, I remember going to his house one time and being like, this is my fucking brother or some shit. No one was like, yeah, brother! It was more like, this is your brother's house.

I was like, oh, okay. I remember that. I remember being there and that he had a kid. But that's all I know. I don't know anything else. So he's like 20 years older than you, at least. Probably 15. A good 15, 16 years older. And then my sister is also maybe 10 years older.

My half-sister. I have half-brother, half-sister, full-sister. I remembered being a young kid at sporting events and stuff. My parents had me when they were 26 or so. Every once in a while, you would meet someone whose parents were like

who had them at 40 or something like that. They were like 50 years old. A 50-year-old parent to an 8-year-old kid is like, oh my god 50 that's so many more numbers like did you ever feel odd having a dad that was way older than the other dads um well like we didn't i never really did anything to like meet the whenever i met the other dads they were goobers i remember um there was that one guy who was who coached us and they were like he'd had a head injury like a few years prior and it was like a gary bucey situation where no one wanted to take the keys away from him it was because it was borderline

yeah but they shouldn't have had him coaching children so i don't know i felt like whatever i was exposed to another kid's dad, it wasn't that they were younger. It was just they just seemed like goobers. I don't know. But yeah, he was a good bit older, but they've got all sorts of idiosyncrasies in my family that made that not seem like a weird thing anyway.

Dad's super protective of mom. I guess she's 10 or 12 years younger than him, so the other guy, the parent. dad's like super protective of mom i guess like she's like 10 or 12 years younger than him so like the other guy the parent i remember that um some other dad at the cub scout meeting was hitting on mom became a whole thing he had to get smoked not killed or anything but he had to get roughed up and then i couldn't go back to cub stack scouts it's like not only did you beat up richard's dad now i can't go back to fucking cub scouts like now you'll never get make eagle i'll never make it fucking like brownie scout even or whatever the fuck like i didn't sounds like

that guy was a dick i mean see richard all right that's that's quality humor right here i remember did you ever have oh did you have something called awanas as a kid i don't know what that is awana i don't know what that is awana i don't remember what it stood for but it was like basically trying to turn the boy scouts into like a church thing where they'd be like it was like a like a weekend thing we'd have to go to when we're really young and it was like you have to go to awanas and i remember being like that was one of the first events other than regular church that as a kid, like I can remember dreading going to,

because it's like, so I have to leave every, every house we had when I was growing up, we had like, but they never finished the basements. There was always unfinished concrete everywhere. Cause we would put hockey, like rollerblades on and put nets down there and shooting stuff.

And so it'd be like in the middle of having a blast with my brother and neighborhood friends doing that. And then they'd be like, all right, time to go learn about God. And I would be like in the middle of having a blast with my brother and neighborhood friends doing that and they'd be like all right time to go learn about god and i'd be like oh fuck like that's the last thing i want right now and they like incentivized you by giving you like one of those vests like a cub scout vest and you could get patches on it but none of the patches were cool they were all lame as shit it was like you just got your memorized daniel 3 7 through 14 patch and so by like the end of two years of doing it i was flared to the gills and none of it was cool it was like bible trivia level stuff or like oh you you made you uh attendance you made it three weeks in a row

actually i never got the walk to the tgi fridays with your fucking sash on i should look at me 37 pieces of flare it looks cool i got like a little flare that's like just like a poorly done sewn patch of of uh because my mom phoned in the patch sewing on there we go there we go sparks i remember that i never made it past like a low level of what sparks that was like the second youngest group starting it was like that like and i guess maybe chums was higher than that i don't this might be even newer than when i was there but the sparks one looks like oh that crown above the sparks i remember having it in my head like i'm gonna load up on crowns don't even remember how you got those but yeah it was really gay it was really lame some masonic imagery here that's a bit upsetting but i never got to do

regular boy scouts and all my friends who did regular boy scouts said it was so fun it was awesome you missed it my regular boy scouts was totally in service of starting fires. That was what it was all the fuck about. When you, like, learn first aid, it was fucking about burns and shit. When you learned how to use a knife, it was about whittling and, like, making fucking tindling. Kindling. Kindling. Thank you.

Tinder might be the other word. I mixed them. And, like, the axe. Everything we did was in service of starting the fires. All the cooking, all the camping was about the fucking fire we went to this jamboree where like 500 troops would come three years in a row we won the fire starting

con it was our identity it was we were all about the fire shit I still like we were the we named ourselves the pyro patrol like there's a troop which is just a number troop 32 or something and then your patrol you name it we were the pyro patrol we were fucking arsonists all having a good time that's fun i wish i could have done that that would have been just starting fires as a kid and being praised for it i know

dude it went too far because it became like an after-school hobby of mine like at first fires were just something you did while camping and it was like you know there's no reason we can't just start a fire right the fuck now let's go into the woods and like apply what we've learned and yeah we started fires and yeah live in that building over there yeah bet it'd go up like nothing else yeah come on let's we can get over there our batman cleansing the city patch if we burn him alive and his is awful isis style isis style isis would probably is isis big on fire yeah yeah they don't have any yeah there was a what there was a while there where isis was just trying to be as evil as they could be so um you would see lots of videos where they would um

they would crucify christians um you know in the in the town where they would they would crucify Christians You know in the chair in the town square They would just round up the Christians and crucify them Oh my they put people in cages and then douse them with gasoline and then just you know, burn them alive in cages They put them in cages and they had this whole set up one time where they had these iron cages They put you in and then they'd lower you into a swimming pool and just drown you iron cages they'd put you in and then they'd lower you into a swimming pool and just drown you um so really anything you can imagine you know like making making two friends fight to the death with like a club or something you know that sort of thing just as evil as you can imagine you know what's why maybe they showed this in the show Rome I don't recall but the term decimation

I know what that is from yeah Woody do you you i know decimate it just to destroy something is there something yeah it technically means to diminish by a factor of a tenth by above 10 so like if you if you like in the roman army it was unbelievable apparently it was unbelievably rare like like many years like a generation could pass, like huge amounts of time could pass between this. But if generals thought that their men were cowardly or were like prematurely fleeing the battle or not doing, like just getting up there

and like pretending to fight, something like that, because I guess that would happen sometimes, very rarely. What they would do is like punish those legionaries by bringing them back and being like all right group c like you've been it's been ruled that you have to endure decimation which is they all all 10 of those people in that troop because they were organized

by like small groups of 10 would have to come and like either grab a stone or grab a short straw sort of situation, all 10 of them, and one of them would be short. And whoever had the short one or the different colored rock or however they differentiated, the other nine would have to, in front of the generals and the rest of the army, beat him to death. Oh, that's not how I pictured it at all. So decimating them, you only lose 10%?

You should lose 90%. You only lose one guy. Yeah, you you reduce by a factor of 10 i guess is what decimate means not anymore in common parlance but like and i hate that too they should pick someone they should be like all right true fucking pyro patrol which one of you is the weakest that's the one you want to get rid of yeah you get that like that old cartoon character he's like i just wasn't in the mood to fight today like that droopy dog guy and you beat him to death exactly yeah like i would imagine that the generals would have to shut that

down once in a while or they'd be like dude the the six foot four guy just drew the short straw all right we're not losing you that's like like the future. So we're keeping you around. And you were clearly fighting. Everyone could see you. This guy's always fighting because he's a foot taller than everyone else. But that would suck. That would be horrible.

A terrible way to go. Being beaten to death by your own compatriots in front of everyone in shame. That is pretty bad. Yeah. That's so much more intense. I didn't know they did that. It'd be better nowadays.

Obviously, you're going to die. At least you die very quickly. I take a bullet to the brain. Or you just get blown up. You're lucky enough to be the guy who gets shot in the head. I've been watching it. You have too. We've seen enough of what war is to know that most of the time,

there's quite a bit of suffering but at the end this is though your 10 squad mates eliminating you they're gonna they're gonna mercy kill you right they should get nine shots to the head as well as bobbity and larry beat you to death after a bad raid that you in tarkov or whatever the fuck. That would be rough. Hopefully they're not using the fucking crowbar. Yeah, yeah. I don't even carry a melee weapon. I just have to hands out, I guess. That's rough. No melee weapon.

No, it's extra weight. And this is super nerdy, but I have this idea that if I ever kill Sturman or something and his Red Rebel is there, I want to be able to instantly alt-click that thing into my... Because the terror is you'd see the thing

and while you're fumbling to get rid of your that somebody kill you and you couldn't get it because that fraction of a second would matter and that would make me quit the game because it's like three or four million rubles that you just didn't click fast enough to have. That would upset me. Dude, you're grinding hard

in Tarkov right now, aren't you? I feel like every time I level you, it's like FPS Kyle's playing. Like 19. So you're flea marketing and pretty deep. Yeah. I wouldn't say... So I've been trying to play it casually and so

that it doesn't just become a sickness. So I think I took three or four days off. I think I played today. I played the day for sure. Um, like all day, but my eyes hurt right now from it. Yeah.

Um, but, uh, cause I'm, I'm, I'm, you know, I'm just,

it has these tasks and when you turn them in, there's a noise. There's a little music. You get a big chunk. You get some reward. Dopamine. It's so addictive. When you turn those things in, somebody's like,

go out and kill 15 PMCs wearing a stupid hat and using a stupid gun and finally kill them all. And it's like, is that the UN mission? The one feels good. Uh,

it's called set up. You gotta go on customs and kill 15 PMCs with a bullshit shotgun wearing a Russian new shock, a hat and a shitty scab vest. It's infuriating. Um, with the ammo and armor changes, shotguns are,

I'm struggling. I'm struggling to, uh, get that one done. But, but but yeah i played a bunch today um what's interesting though is that new game that pokemon shooter game right pal world right yeah i've got yeah in my group chat with some buddies our gaming chat like a couple of them are super into it and one of them has their own server is it literally a pokemon game so rip off mimic of what it's the same seems to be the same mechanical like structure as pokemon where it's like oh you go out there in an open world game and there are these creatures that all look kind of like pokemon and you capture them and then use them to fight other ones but unlike pokemon games where it's like you and i would battle pokemon back and forth turn-based in this like you woody would send

his pokemon out or have it with him i would send one of mine out and then also woody's character in mind could be like shooting arrows at each other's pokemon and like hurting each other beating each other up with weapons and whatnot it It's the biggest game in the world right now. It was over double as many players online as Counter-Strike 2, which is the perennial largest game on Steam. It's pretty fun. I'm going to try it. I have no idea what the gameplay is like or what the deal is. Scum has a private server for us if we want to play.

He said that it has to be homies only quote unquote though because apparently we have to share ip addresses to if we're in there um it's like like you can see his and he can see ours and anyway um but but i saw a clip or a short and some guy like some little pokemon runs up to the guy and he's like oh he like loves it up and he's like oh giga chad i choose you and he like and then he picks him up and stuffs him ass first into a bazooka and the pokemon's okay with this if anything he looks determined now yeah and then he like raises the bazooka up and there's a tower in the distance that looks like some sort of enemy fortification and he like launches the fucking Pokemon with his bazooka.

And it was a nuclear Pokemon, I guess, because when it hits, it just destroys every fucking thing in the way. It must be a rare one. It must have been a rare one. And so now I actually am mildly interested in playing that game. So if you want to play some of that later, I'm down to... I don't know what it is. I'm down to try it.

It looks fun. I texted you yesterday, seeing if you were still on the Rust grind. I've played any Rust. Or on Tarkov, because I was like, if he's on Rust again, I'm going to get some hours in on Rust with him to get that AoE finger tent trade going. That would be good.

I'm happy to play Rust with you if you play AoE 2 with me. I'll play some AoE 2.2 um it's gonna you know i like taylor's negotiating that's my negotiating yeah it's a it's like no no odds just i play three hours of that with him he plays three hours of this it was four four hours whatever the the distribution is i want my four hours yeah i'll play four hours it i'm like rust you describe it seems like it's a fun game just to like be socializing in and whatnot and i enjoy i don't know i've never played pve rust but in theory it i think it'll be very fun because there are a lot of um you kind of go around the island you're like oh go into this military base kill the ai sneak

around and get this card and then go get that card and then you get to go to the big base and open the doors and get all the loot um there's just a lot there's just scientists and ai to fight against i i like never get tilted in video games ever like if you beat my ass like i have encode names before but if you beat my ass and like call the duty it's kind of like ah rats but i'm like disappointed in myself with how natural and visceral i get tilted in age of empires when it starts going badly for me or if i feel like i'm just getting ganged up on by a lot of other people if we do a free-for-all game and my younger brother and a buddy of mine show up on different sides of my base

at the same time over and over and over, I'll battle it back. But in my head, I'm like, you son of a bitch. I thought at least in the virtual world I'd get a fat shake for once. Yeah. Why are you coming to me?

You're just going to knock me out again? You're just going to keep attacking me? This is unfair. I get tilted. I try to play in ways that prevent me from getting tilted. Even when I'm playing Tarkov, I'll go in with this mindset. I don't care if I die. I don't care if I lose all this shit.

My only goal is to go to the other side of the map, pick up a folder, go to the other side of the map, leave a folder go to the other side of the map leave with the folder and i'm all done whatever happens happens i don't care about loot money gear none of that but then like things start going real well shit i killed three of them i killed three of them now but now i have three players gear on me and i'm so heavy what am i gonna do throw the gear what now my heart's beating because i'm happy i have all the gear. I'm trying to limp out of there and the player can barely walk with all that weight.

I'm literally carrying 80 kilograms of fucking gold on my back. All I wanted was the folder, but now I'm trudging. And when you're fat like that, every step makes a louder noise that reaches out further. Players hear crunch, crunch crunch crunch

i think you run the same speed but you can't run very far you get tired in no time at all which ruins your ability to get out of there that's the speed you're down you probably yeah there's they've they've sort of fine-tuned things it's almost a real game now not a it's not ready for full release like microsoft wouldn't release a game like this. Well, actually, nowadays they might. In the olden days, they wouldn't. But it's almost full release. They stopped selling the Supporter version,

the Edge of Darkness version, January 1st or something like that. So it is on the eve of being a full release game. But I like games that never are done. Rust is that. that rust every month there's um there's a youtuber a youtuber called shadow frags his whole channel is like here's all the new things in rust this month and it's and that and that's kept him he's been a youtuber doing that for like 10 years every month there's new stuff in rust and not just little things oh we made a red gun no we added We added horses, motorcycles,

cars, parachutes, zip lines across the map. Oh, the building's completely different now. Now there's electronics. Woody knows with the redstone stuff in Minecraft. I don't know anything about that, but I know that there is an equivalent in the electrical systems in

Rust where you look at it and you're like, like bro this is as complicated as real electrical work what you have here it's grids of wires and capacitors and batteries and charges like you look at it and you don't understand it it's like looking at a fuse box yeah yeah people take it to a level and they like build functional computers and stuff in minecraft and i i think rust has a parallel and like there's a calculator you know and they like build functional computers and stuff in Minecraft. And I think Rust has a parallel. And like there's a calculator, you know, and they have these like pistons that move stones and shit.

You do like nine times nine, and then like 81 pops up on the wall as the stones get pushed forward. And like what the fuck? I can't imagine figuring that out. People do. There's drones now and stores and stuff. I know Larry does a thing where he kills people and takes their skulls and makes a trophy room and then he puts cameras in the trophy room and he broadcasts like the video of his trophy room full of skulls and then he like goes around the

map telling people where to tune in so they can see the broadcast of their skulls just weird shit like that it's a and you know the trap bases are, too. People make bases that appear to be, like... Easy to get into. Oh, someone left this. Like, it's abandoned. Like, an abandoned base that's semi-decayed. There's goods in there. No, but it's made so there's a mechanic

where if you step on this floorboard, it'll collapse, and you'll fall on something, usually comical, electricity or water or a punji pit or something awful, and they're just waiting there to like it's a Venus flytrap. That's what people do. The bases in that trap bases in that game are like Venus flytraps for people.

What is it called? A mod. My Minecraft server had a mod that did that skulls trophy room type thing. What a huge mistake. Colin and I would be just murdered on site. Anytime we went anywhere that we weren't protected,

just hordes of people would kill us and try to get our skull for their trophy room. It was awful. Dude, people will take advantage. This happened probably a year and a half ago when I first got back into AOE and then took like a year off since last year on this time. Like I matchmaking wasn't working. And like at least when I would go into like playing online 1v1 and I would get if I got thrashed, it's like, well, of course I did. This guy is better than me.

But then you can like go to custom lobbies and join those. you can like go to custom lobbies and join those and there are so many that say like all caps obviously noobs only noob only lobby yeah you join well i joined one of those they were not new they like walled me in to my own area and were just like like they whatever they wanted to do to me, they did to me. Which game is this? Age of Empires. Imagine like, Woody, you're at your little base and you're like, oh, I gotta get my boars. I gotta collect. You're just singularly

focused on this. And then you decide to scout outside your base. What's this? This is a red wall. There's a red wall on the outside of my base. Okay, I gotta run over here. There's another red wall. They've walled me in to my own base. All right, I'll just keep collecting. I'll build a ram to get out of this.

You show up again. They got towers. They've towered and walled me in. Then they start battling you in before you know it. Like, oh, no, there's another slightly closer layer of wall to me now. I'm being onioned, and they're having a blast doing it to me. And I just left that. And so new blobby people are very lame.

That wasn't fun. Dude, that's every game. That's every game. The Rust servers will say noob friendly, and you'll be in there, and immediately you'll have a guy like bee hopping, like trick shotting you, one tapping you, and calling you a faggot. And you're like, wait, this is not noob friendly at all. Oh, yeah.

It's like, wow, they left one of their villagers out villagers out i'm gonna use my scout to get him real quick the guy builds partially you can't walk on partially built constructed stuff in that game he just quick walls like four little walls around him in zero seconds flat now my scout can't do anything like it's like this is this is beyond frustrating i didn't know there was micro i thought there there was a macro. Oh, are you serious? There's a huge amount of micro. That just sounds terrifying, though. They're remaking Age of Mythology Retold. They're doing it. They're making a whole new version, same way they did for AoE2 Definitive Edition.

I'm excited for that. When I first set up WoodyCraft, we had a game mode called Factions. And in it, you build your fort and defend it and steal other people's stuff and put it in yours it's a lot like rust okay i wasn't a very good server owner in the beginning i mean who's good and my player base wasn't very good at the game at the beginning so people from other servers decided to come to mine and ruin it right they put uh those walls that taylor was talking about around the spawn and just trapped my whole fucking player base like so their base became the spawn and they owned everything and i'm like man all these players from other servers are coming

to woody craft and just dominating us. But I earned like $14,000 that day and I'm like, I don't know if this is a good day or a bad day. No one's having fun, but Jackie, we're going on vacation. We're going on a good one. Yeah, that's a very funny day. Hating on me, just like why my server sucks so much

and I hired them and we made it better that's smart i'm still proud of that move that's the the idea of um building someone in or boxing someone in rust is such a monumental task that it requires a level of no lifing and teamwork that's almost unfathomable in like a 1x or 2x server like if you're gonna build a wall that would like split some i've seen people like youtubers will do it because they've got a huge fan base and they get paid to play the game essentially they'll cut the island in half with a giant stone wall and like the idea of doing that is so labor intensive you can't even understand it or they'll build a wall

around one of the monuments in the game one of the ai features and everybody's just like whoa what the fuck you own your own gas station you can't own gas station you're like you better get a ladder if you want into our gas station it's that kind of stuff's fun when you break the game and kind of ruin it for the other players help me with rust is it you put a safe down a lot covered a tool cupboard yeah you put a tool cupboard down then you own a radius around that tool cupboard well imagine the server owner was incompetent and that radius was way too small so now other people can just make bases around your base and own you and it's not easy but it's something a good player could do it's what we do um so what we'll do uh

on wipe day you'll you'll build your initial little shit shed, but it's just to fill it up with resources that are going to be used to expand to the big boy base. Day two, you really explode with everything that's stored in there. So if you can knock somebody off on day one, it's a big deal. They've got a lot of stuff not well defended. But building privilege is one of the things you can take advantage of if you're like you can see the the beginnings of their big base you're like well there's the there's where it's going to be well you can see like how it's going to branch off and what they'll do they'll have their one tool cupboard that's building privilege and then they'll surround it in like maybe a hexagon where each hex has its own tool

cupboard and that way if you knock one out, the other one just takes over that so that they can't build there, but we'll go in when they're not paying attention and surround their base with tool cupboards as close to them as we can build them and armor hours up. Like, like we won't usually a tool cupboard has like a door. You like open the door to the closet. Oh, here's the tool cupboard. Let me put more resources in it. Because not only does it

give you building privilege over an area, whatever you put in that area has to be fed. It devours resources. Oh, is there a stone wall here? It eats five stone a day. Is it a steel wall? It eats five steel a day.'s it's called upkeep so it's like taxes for owning a building almost like property so a wall that big would be too expensive to even begin unless you're already wealthy beyond imagination you've got to be stuffing that box full of stuff but what you'll do if you're being a jerk you're not coming back to this box you'll you'll throw enough steel in there that it takes three days to degrade, and then you won't leave a door.

You'll just make an armored box with no way in. And they show up and they're like, oh my God, I can't break armored boxes. Like that's so resource intensive. It took you 10 minutes to make an armored box. It takes me 10 hours to break one. And so now they've got no way to build, they can't fix their base the way they want. We own the outside of their base now like the exterior there's lots of

shit so they're gonna quit on that base relocate and then you get what they started walling people in in any it's about discouraging them really it's not about stealing their stuff it's about ruining their good time do you find that that micro in PC games translates for you guys? I don't understand. You know, like micro movements in games, whether it's Call of Duty or Tarkov doing the little movements with the gun or an RTS like Warhammer or Age of Empires or Starcraft where you're doing a lot of hot key.

Yeah, I think when you're on top of your game, you can walk into a new game and hit the ground running, but I'm not that guy right now. I would suck. What are you asking? I don't understand the question. He's asking if your mouse and keyboard skills translate from game to game. If you're a solid WASD quick guy and then you hop

into any other game, does it translate? Would you be good right off the bat at or better rather at like microing units in starcraft or age of empires or whatever because you're so used to you know quick precise movements um i don't know um i you know i know i i can use my i know where all the keys are you know i don't have to look to press one, three, five and, um, and, and all the keys. I don't have any issues with that. Uh, I would say the biggest thing advantage, I can jump right into cod.

You jump right into like call duty PC and be, it'd be pretty good. Uh, or, you know, above a one Katie, one and a half Katie or something like that for sure. But the main thing from Tarkov is just nothing else is going to rattle me. Like, like nothing. I'm not going to, I'm not going to get upset by a normal game and I'm not going to get too excited by a normal game either because Tarkov is that crack cocaine,

you know, and, and we're going to like, Hey, you guys want some, some pop. It's got, it's,

it's strong, it's strong drink, lots of caffeine. Like, dude, that's not, I'm not even going to feel that. I'd have to like inject that in my asshole to, to get anything from that. Tarkov's strong drink. Lots of caffeine. I'm not even going to feel that. I'd have to inject that in my asshole

to get anything from that. Tarkov's so extreme. Rust is worse, though, I think, because sometimes you wake up in Rust and everything's just gone. In Tarkov, I know when I log in, all my shit's there. All the shit that I've earned so far, it can't be taken from me.

What I've gotten, if I leave it in my base. You'll log on in Rust and it'll be gone. Did the server ever hook you up? Yeah, a little bit one time, but mostly just because MIDI was streaming, I think, and we had enough people watching.

The people that were watching were also joining the server and stuff. We were getting bothered by a cheater. At first, the guy didn't want to help us out. He thought we were just complaining because we were getting like bothered by a cheater and at first the guy didn't want to help us out he didn't he thought we were just complaining because we didn't we were losing and i was like look and i guess he like figured out who we were and he was nice to us though when he when i learned who i was but for the most part i just want to be i don't want any special treatment or anything you know i just want to play with the play the game yeah i used to do it a little bit like maybe a team would spend like whatever three hundred dollars to

give themselves a leg up this time around and then two days later someone else stole all their stuff i wouldn't give it all back because that seems like too much like there should be a penalty but it'd be like all right here's maybe like 10 or 20 percent of what you bought again just well one it's an act of kindness like it makes them stick around and two is i think it's good business so for sure yeah this is the kind of guy that spends three hundred dollars every wipe give him thirty dollars worth of virtual goods yeah the only thing he doesn't buy not like oh my warehouse of diamond swords is getting so low i can't afford to give you guys exactly right so just it was good business and it was uh it was a win for everyone involved.

Yeah, it's a good customer satisfaction play. I don't do any pay to win stuff, so there's no way to impress myself upon the server in that way anyway. The only thing we'll usually pay for is the guns and armor have skins in that game and sometimes the skins are actually like, oh, this is the meta

skin. This is the least visible shirt you can wear or this is the meta skin this is the least visible shirt you can wear or this is the gun skin that that puts a a glowy tip on the end of the site that's the one you can actually holy shit now i can use it at night now it's basically a night set that's so much better than just the red gun so um we pay for something called skin box that just gives you access to the entire skin library, which seems like... So Rust has a CSGO-like skin market where you buy skins for real money. And some of these skins are valuable, like hundreds of dollars.

And once you own it, you can use it on any server. Now you actually own it. You can basically make your gun that color real quick, end game, for free every time, because you now own that skin. But if you're on these private servers and you've paid giving them five bucks you just have every skin in existence for that month which i don't know seems i know it's but i bet the server owner is like look i got i'll make up a number you know 100 customers here of which 10 actually pay me. Those 10 are my favorite people. If he quit, maybe I

give him a tool cupboard or something. I don't know. They don't do anything like that. There's really no pay to win in Rust, though. There's some service where you buy lots of stuff, but I just don't play on those services. Maybe if a non-paying really want more of a better phone experience.

Maybe if a non-paying customer is complaining of a cheater, I don't get out of fucking bed for that. But if a paying customer does, it's like, oh shit, well I want to make sure this guy enjoys his experience here on Rustcraft or whatever. Usually what will happen is Scum will go into the

Discord with the mods for the server and like hey I'm an adult my friends are too we're also white and we don't cheat at games we're just gonna let them know you let them know right away you know and

those nice latin letters in your name not those scary chinese hacker letters yeah they're gonna steal your fucking your skin or whatever in my gamer tag or anything like that um and and so then we can kind of go to them there's been plenty of times where because scum was like friendly with them initially and you know let them know why um later on when we had a cheater issue we could report people and that's that's the in that game with cheaters it's like fucking billy bob's cheating and you can type it in like the chat and everybody in the server sees it and they'll and they'll be like yeah billy bob is cheating and they'll be like yo billy bob you cheating bro

he's like nah and now no now no never No! No! No! No, don't report me. I go to jail for rear. That ruined my social credit score. That's good. Yeah. I mean, I don't know that firsthand, but I do know the reputation from you guys is that

the Chinese... I heard it got better have you seen where people show up at those internet cafes and stab motherfuckers I've heard of that one story that's awesome I mean that guy do you remember what game he got killed in online it had to be like

Starcraft or something like that oh was he Korean because they take starcraft so seriously i wonder if that's still true because i know that it was right i know that it was like a sport they cared about like football in america but i heard that 15 years ago are they still in starcraft like they used to be i know starcraftcraft 2 is still... As far as old RTSs go, Starcraft 2 is really popular. I tried it. I didn't

like it very much. There's not enough eco-balance. This is a big deal for me. The New Hampshire primaries tonight. I'm excited. Let me just say this. I'm excited because it's been four years since we've had

any interesting politics whatsoever. The man is back. The Trump train is chugging along. We're about to pick Vivek, the greatest VP of all time. Vivek is going to be the VP. You think Vivek will be the VP? Yeah. You want to put some money on it? I feel like I should get two to one on it, but I'll go straight up.

Wait, I get... I'll take everyone and. Wait, I get- Ramaswamy. I'll take everyone and you get Vivek. I take Vivek Ramaswamy. He's a great guy. He doesn't grope people on trains. Wonderful hygiene. Great guy. Dude, I think that is not a call Trump would-

Dark skin, light heart. Everyone knows I have criticism of Trump, but one of his strengths is figuring out people's positions and I don't think Trump has huge principles. I think Trump just wants to win. If Trump was, like right now on abortion, right?

He was all pro-life when he ran. Now he's like, you guys, this pro-life, this pro... This pro-life thing, I'm sorry, I this pro-life, this pro-life thing. I'm sorry. I was saying it wrong. This pro-life thing is hurting the party. Let's dial it back a little bit.

Let's be pro-life. But after like 20 weeks or 16 weeks or something like that. Why? Because that helps him win elections. I don't think he arrives at most of his positions from like, this is my sincere, deep-seated belief. I think most of his positions are this is how you win an election this is this is what you want then that's what i am do you think any of them are being sincere like i think that's just kind of a boilerplate politician like switch and change

obama he did gay marriage throughout his whole first term i think what i think that was a good example of what you're saying actually that he wasn't actually anti-gay. Yeah, he doesn't care. No, and he changed his position once pro-gay became the popular stance. He switched. So that holds up. I think some politicians, I think Woody's right. I think some politicians, though, have things they actually do believe in and that they want to enforce.

Mike Johnson, for sure. That guy, he's the leader of the House. He's very much guided by the bible but i think trump really really only cares about winning that's his primary thing um he does seem to have a a thing about immigration which i think is is real and i'm i he does clearly want to stay out of like large-scale wars i think think that's real, too. Yeah. But I watched his rally, or maybe 20 minutes of his rally.

I guess it was yesterday morning. It was like 7 a.m. It said it was live, but I think they were doing that thing where, like, here's a live broadcast of yesterday's rally. What the fuck is that? What the fuck is that? Yeah, we're broadcasting it live from yesterday fuck you but the thing the two positions kyle mentioned though are popular

i haven't seen him take an unpopular principled stance ever yeah oh i i think he would give up those principles if he felt like he needed to sure but but he man he was rambling a little bit and a little incoherent and uh and i just think he really needs that Vivek Ramaswamy injection of clarity and well-spokenness. Yes, because he's like, oh, you know, do you want to hear the story of the snake? Who what? I've got two speeches here. I got the short one and the long one. Which one do you want?

They're like, the long one, the long one. And you can see a little part of him die, like, really hoping you wanted the short one and the long one. Which one do you want? They're like, the long one, the long one. And you can see a little part of him die, like, really hoping you wanted the short one. But he goes into, like, you know the story of the woman who found the cold snake. It's a poem that he has moved around a little bit to be his anti-immigration thing. And it's like, oh, woman, oh, woman,

you held me to your titty. And he's going on and on. Like, he's like oh woman oh woman you held me to your titty and it's just he's going on and on like he's messing it up and then he's like he's explaining he explains why he's telling the story as if metaphor could go over the crowd's head he's like you know this is in relation of course immigration you know you let them in you could they say good things and bad things happen someone like backstage just told him that story and so he's like just repeating what that guy said he's like and here's why it's important folks i think trump is trump was a very good entertainer in 2016 he had a knack for working a crowd, riling them up, etc. His crowds are getting bored sometimes now. Not everybody, but he doesn't have that same dedication and knack

for entertaining. Instead, he likes to air his own grievances about how he's treated unfairly. And in 2016, it was why he thinks this country sucks and how we're going to make America great. In 2024, it's why he he thinks why he's not happy. All the things I don't like. I'm running for president. I'm going to avenge all this shit. And it's like, man, it seems like this is about you. It didn't used to be.

So he's got to just hammer on the stuff that's genuinely popular with a lot of people like hammer on the economy, hammer on not getting involved in more wars, hammer on immigration. Just stick to those three things because the vast majority of people don't want more wars hammer on immigration just stick to those three things because the vast majority of people don't want more wars they want the border shut down and they are worried about the economy just stick with that like that's a pretty winning position the economy one's tough because there's a lot of numbers that like we just set a record for the number of consecutive months with unemployment below four percent the stock market's hitting new highs. Inflation problems have gone away. Gas prices haven't gone away.

Like for normal people, it's still really tough out there. And a lot of people I know have lost their jobs and are now doing gig economy shit. You just nailed the avenue he should take. Yeah. Because the numbers say one thing, but they don't feel it. And that should be a position. They don't show the reality of the middle class. If I'm Trump, I say he's going to spend the next two hours of this debate with a lot of numbers explaining how great the economy is.

How's it feel? That would be the slogan. Instead of make America great again, how does it feel? That's what it's all about. How does the economy feel to you how does because that is the position a salesman should take uh again i i won't concede that the numbers are wrong but uh it's just like i won't concede that you can win an election with lying and that that'll work yeah and i i would say like those numbers are trying to make the economy look good. All the reality of people who aren't like like watching the news all the time, like that are just living their day to day middle class people. It's really terrible. Like it's it's bad out there. It's expensive. Everything is more expensive. And that's resonating with people. What's the old saying? If everyone thinks the economy is bad, it is bad.

I butchered that. If the vast majority of the population is like, the economy is not working for me right now, then that is indicative of it not working, no matter what. Like, oh, GDP has gone up. What's that mean? What does that mean for the average person? Nothing. They're not stockholders.

They're people who go, I'm making one percent more than I made four years ago it was under Trump yeah I mean GDP is going to keep going up but it doesn't translate is there better like it there's a lot of positive in relation to inflation inflation was way outpacing pay increases and it still is people aren't getting three percent every year true the pay increases are raising rising in comparison to inflation at the very top and the very bottom, but not the middle. Okay, so for the majority of people, it's bad. I don't know where the majority is. A lot of people are at the very bottom.

But I don't even know. So it's really bad for the people who pay the overwhelming majority of taxes, it's bad. Maybe. I don't even know who pays the majority of taxes. Middle class. Middle class and up. Like 50 bucks. Middle class and up. Now I'm with you. People with money

pay taxes. Mitt Romney got in trouble for like 10 years ago where he's like, 48% if you don't pay anything. Yeah, as far as income tax is concerned that's very true like it's like a lot of those people are in the middle class upper middle class people who don't have fuck you money people who are now like oh i have unrealized gains on my fucking house my in any case trump is beating the wrong drum a lot trump

is beating this they're not treating me fairly i actually won that election i you know he's he's talking a lot about himself and people are just like this is not the magic that you used to have biden biden was at a cookout i think in north carolina um you know cookout the restaurant and oh yeah he was at the same one three or four years ago though so the the menus behind him and the prices and the prices, and the prices have gone up 28% or something like that. So you've got this little snapshot like there. McDonald's had a dollar menu in 2018.

They don't have a dollar menu anymore. No, now all that shit's like $2.90. It's $4 for a regular hamburger or something like that Anyway, Trump is expected to win tonight Not by a lot. This is Nikki Haley's strongest state And in this state, independents can vote for whoever they want Whereas some states you have to be a registered Republican In New Hampshire, Democrats can't vote any way they want But Republicans and independents are invited to participate in the Republican primary.

A lot of those independents might vote for Nikki Haley, although polling says she's going to lose by a bit. The polling places say they're running out of the switch party forms because so many Democrats are registering as Republicans to prop up Nikki Haley. That sounds like bullshit because they ran out and had to go get more paper. You had to do it by October. How do we reconcile these two things? How do we reconcile these two things? I don't know because you had to get that done by

October of last year to change your party. So I don't know why they're running. Or maybe one of us is wrong. Maybe it's me. I don't know. It could have been that YouTube channel called the liberal hive mind. So anyway, maybe Zach can back check that. I'm not sure.

But what was I saying? Oh, so if Trump wins New Hampshire, even by a little he's supposed to go to south carolina next and beat nikki haley who was governor of south carolina in south carolina that's what the polling says and that'll end the primary if he beats nikki haley in her own state we expect her to pull out ah yeah i i can't imagine her not going to her own state it just seems like she will but yeah i heard her talk about it recently and she was like yeah we're in it we have a lot of money

left i've been hoarding money we're the only major campaign that flew commercial all this time desantis pulled out because he's flying in private jets he spent 150 million the santa spent something like 2 700 per vote in iowa like he spent 2 700 a vote over there and he did it by blowing money on ads and um private jets and shit like that i'm so glad to see that guy fail i i just dislike ron de santis i just don't like him he's. A lot of people agree with you. I like Ron DeSantis more than Nikki Haley, I think. It's impossible to dislike someone more than Nikki Haley. Nikki Haley wants you to register your social

media accounts instead of turd knocker 999. She loves war more than anyone on earth. Nobody loves war more than Nikki Haley. I feel like you guys are right a hawk this is where nikki haley is like different than trump and it's like even if you have unpopular principles fucking bury them or lie about them during the election part don't run on

the i'll take us to war i'll make it so that your retirement for social security is older. And what was the other thing we just talked about? Um, no, immigration. Yeah. I don't know where she is on immigration, but in any case,

she's saying in these like unpopular positions. Oh, registering your social media accounts. No more anonymous social media. Yeah. Which is crazy. Yeah. Like, like she's like, Hey, i don't want to win for me like like how many people like first of all nikki haley go to the comment section and

find all the people who say nice things about you on any given youtube video and then look at their fucking usernames and try to figure out if those people want to remain anonymous or not. Thundercuck999 does not want his real name known. He's a wild man on the internet. I think Trump is anti-gun. I don't think Trump is into guns. He grew up in a fucking billionaire's house in New York City.

He banned fucking bump stocks during his term. He's not a pro-gun guy. He doesn't whisper one word of that thought. And by the way, I don't think he'll be, I guess I'll be a little anti-gun since he was the first time, but,

um, you won't hear him talk about that position at all because he's trying to win an election and he's got his eye on the ball. Whereas Nikki Haley's over there talking about making you register your real name on social media. That's not how you win. Who does she think that's a winning issue for do you think there's enough old white people who are like yeah just like me

Michael Richardson Jr. it's her her donors are like I'm sick of getting what are they so afraid of what are those pedophiles hiding Nikki we're getting absolutely blown the fuck out in the comments by people with anime avatars who are saying things that might they might lose their job if it was their real name out there so what we need to do is have like a tacit threat of behave or you'll have your livelihood destroyed have your real

name on there it's like okay well no. The anonymity is super important online. Your first Xbox gamer tag was Matt.Woodworth. Everyone made fun of me. You used your real name in your gamer tag? You're like, no, my name's Jason Stevens.

You just put a fake name out there that looks real. It's literally the anti-C-Nanners who just used the first a fake name out there that looks real literally the anti-c nanners who just used the first xbox generated name like i don't even care as long as there's nothing like what my matthew dot would work i'm sure it wasn't on the end there but using a nonsense name isn't bad branding at all like you get to define it like kinkos doesn't mean fucking anything yeah i mean that's an old example um but you know you get to make pepsi coca-cola this don't mean very much instead they tell you what they are yeah well i guess coke came from something right well coca and it's it's the

coconut nut and the the cola plant or whatever that's the two ingredients i would think coca plant and the and the cola nut um that would say coca plant and the cola nut that you make Coca-Cola with. Obviously, Pepsi is about pep. I never even put pep and Pepsi together. As soon as I said Coca-Cola, I'm like, it did have coke in it,

I think. You know there's a hyphen in Dr. Pepper? That is not a medical title. Don't think pepper like salt and pepper. It's not pepper like salt and pepper. It's pepper like doctor.

It's a pepper. It gives you pep. Oh, it's the doctor pepper. Like a doctor that gives you pep. I never associated that with... Yeah. Did you know they used to drink it hot?

It was like, yeah. Disgusting. That must have been before carbonation. Because how would that work? I so desperately want to try more junk foods. Like sodas out there are basically just liquid popsicles. I'm sure there's something I'd enjoy. I want to go to a gas station and just drop my guard and be like,

what has Reese's been up to? What sort of scientists? Incredible. Oh, and then Reacher loves Clark bars. I don't think I know what a Clark bar tastes like. I don't think I've had one since Halloween as a kid. Let's see what's in a Clark bar. Yeah. I don't think I've had a Clark bar evereen as a kid see what's in a clark bar yeah i don't think i've had a clark bar ever but it caught my oh by the way did you guys see the

end of reacher i know we're out of time didn't see episode two no i didn't watch any more of it you didn't see episode two yeah no i told you i didn't like all those colors well anyway i watched it to the end and uh this is not a huge spoiler, but there is a scene. I'm watching with Jaggi. Reacher is handcuffed, and there are six men with guns. And while handcuffed with his hands behind his back, he beats up all six of them with headbutts and kicks. And by the way, Reacher's not a flexible man.

He can't kick, like, above your knee. But he uses kicks and headbutts and beats up six. I'm like, fucking tell me this isn't a superhero. Preacher's not a flexible man. He can't kick above your knee. He can't scratch his back. And beats up... Fucking tell me this isn't a superhero show. This is absolutely a superhero show. No, you sold me. You sold me. He has the attributes of a superhero without the explanation of being...

What did we joke about? Taylor said he got bitten by a radioactive like navy seal yeah like what the fuck are you dude yeah um he's just a big guy his power is being bigger than every other character in the show and smarter than basically everyone but maybe yeah yeah yeah i don't see what she brings to the table nearly like a lot like it's almost like they had to force it where it's like wait a minute you were a master detective with that black uh chief of police last season and now he like needs marching orders he should be like that woman is his sidekick should be dependents like they should be like oh no they got they got Robin again. All right, let's fucking... Yeah.

Why do I even have this guy around? It is kind of weird that Batman has that child running around and boy shorts with him all the time. Yeah. I always thought Robin was a little... There's nothing weird about that. It's a little weird. No, cool people do that. I don't know about that.

I get strong pedophile vibes from old school Batman. I never thought it was named Dick. Dick Grayson. You got him. You dead to rights. Bruce Wayne. Well, anyway, in your time right tonight. And I this I mean, if Trump wins and he's expected to then i guess haley sticks around till south

carolina for no reason and yeah trump will get like 55 or 60 and hey they'll get like 30 35 or something hope she is upset in a big way he sucks i thought the polls were closer but um not no way trump trump there. No way she approaches Trump. I would be surprised if it's anything competitive. She just doesn't seem to inspire anyone who actually likes her. I'm really excited about the

Vivek VP pick, though, and what that could mean. Because Vivek is well-spoken and can speak at length about any number of issues. He can answer questions. Trump's all gobbledygook. You're not going to get anything policy-wise.

You're never going to get a number. What do you think we should do about this? How many troops should we add, Mr. President? I'm thinking 75,000. You'd never get that. You're going to get as many as we need. So many. It's a big, beautiful military.

That is a better answer. Exactly how many, though. And Vivek would be, I think that we're going to want to add one point. We need to be at one million. And we're going to do that over the course of eight years. The first year, he's going to have a fucking plan with steps and a way to accomplish it. Trump doesn't do that. He's ideas and flavors.

Oh, I think Kyle's right. No, the New Hampshire polls, I'm looking at it now. Trump has 53.9 in this poll that I'm looking at. And Haley, I'm eyeballing on a chart, is like 37, 38%. So if he's up by 20 points, I didn't know that it was that far. Good. It looks really good for him. Good.

Vivek doesn't work on me. What happens oftentimes in a Vivek interview is before the interviewer finishes the question, interview is before the interviewer finishes the question, he interrupts the question and blasts, runs over the interviewer and tries to dominate the talk. And I much prefer someone who has good responses and policies and retorts to the question. When someone's afraid of letting you get the rest of the question out, that looks bad to me. But maybe I'm different.

Yeah. I think the Republicans can't win on policy necessarily anyway. Like if you put them all on a piece of paper, left and right, did a pros and cons, Republicans probably lose every time. Or about thoughts and feelings and hopes and dreams. No, there'd be a lot they'd win on like in like huge levels of immigration huge levels of immigration is wildly the other side's better at paperwork taylor just it's they're gonna no they're way better at media they're gonna need intellectualists out of this okay you've got to go thoughts and feelings with this to win it's all thoughts and feelings and policy they welded up those

hasidim holes in New York. Did they perform a full investigation? Or are they letting that slide out of the news cycle? Is that what it looks like? I don't know. The more I see about that, it seems like kind of a nothing. Can you imagine if they found fucking tunnels with bloody mattresses under a Catholic church? We would be hearing about that.

There'd already be a movie in the works. You know, food for thought yeah they were just trying to expand the synagogue right in an illegal no help me no um the the sedum were drilling fucking holes under there and the business owners had discovered the holes like a week or two before and so they were having cement trucks brought in to fill their fucking tunnels up because they didn't want tunnels under their place and so when the trucks got there all of those hasidim were pitching a fit and tearing the place apart and preventing the and then they started tearing that wall down with the hammers there i don't quite i don't believe what they tell me about the tunnels because they keep telling me that like um that it's the extreme right-wing jews like having tunnels and wanted to to build the tunnels there

like they said they were some pre-existing like structure and they found it and wanted to expand upon it and it's all so vague it's like where were you going why were you doing it uh i i don't think there's any like human trafficking or pedophilia going on, though, because it's not like some... They just go to their apartment, dude. They don't need the tunnel. This isn't like some endangered group of people on the fringe of society. They're in their neighborhood. They control everything anyway.

If they wanted to traffic and do awful things to children, they wouldn't do it in a dark tunnel. They do it in their homes and apartments, protected by their web of like craziness i just don't think that they need spider holes if you told me that there were some somali immigrants who were like illegals with criminal records somewhere with some tunnels i'd be like oh yeah they gotta be careful i'm still not following because they clearly wanted tunnels what did they they want them for? I just feel more at home down there. There's something totally innocent, Kyle thinks. It feels more natural to them to be beneath the earth. They just wanted to stay in a daycare room. Step one, steal underwear.

Step two, step three, profit. They just feel safe down there in the cold, dark earth underground. It feels more natural for them to be under there. The important thing is there will never be any answers uncovered about it because they're not going to pursue well maybe that channel 5 news um guy will do i wish he were there that andrew um andrew calhan or whatever his name go go watch his thing on the immigrants he put a migrant crisis. He uploaded a video yesterday. He's down in Texas, I think. And he like finagles his way back to where the migrants actually are.

And it's a field full of them. He's like, there's 300 people. They showed up in the last hour. And it's Africans. It's almost all Africans who are just sitting in a field waiting to be processed. And they're being hidden behind a wall by Border Patrol away from the cameras. He's got to sneak his way back there to get them on camera. That guy's doing

interesting stuff lately. The Philly one was great when he covered all the trank and the fentanyl and stuff in Philly. The San Francisco one really blew up because San Francisco they all had those open wounds. It's really gross. Lots of that. This newest thing gross. Yeah, lots of that.

But this newest thing on the migrant crisis is very good. They had open wounds, too. I saw an exposed bone. I saw the bone. That was hardcore. We got to represent back at home. We have... I'm not going to go admit someone has better druggies than us without a fight.

What's the worst country in the United States? Worst country to live in the United States. If you have to pick New York, Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco, Philadelphia, LA. What's the bottom? Portland. Do I get to live in the suburbs or do I have to live in the city?

I get to pick and I'm going to be mean about it. Probably Portland then. It's probably the safest you're getting aids the first week i mean are we trying to pick a good city or a bad one i would try and pick the safest one portland is definitely way safer than chicago oh i know i meant what's the worst what's the oh the worst one uh i think as far as like getting probably chicago i was going detroit so there's detroit and st louis and the reason i think detroit is worse for me anyway is as you move north it gets

colder and the days get shorter and i hate that if you if you include east st louis specifically there is no worst place in the country well kyle said he was going to choose in a mean-spirited way, right? So we're talking about where the worst place in the world is. That cold air is coming off that lake right into your crime-ridden neighborhood window every night. It's going to be bad.

You know what? My hell might be Buffalo because of that snow and the cold and the short days. But it not a nice place yeah but you're surrounded by i imagine financially unsuccessful white men my whole lifetime i'm just meaning like i guess i'm thinking about this differently from like like i'm thinking like trying to avoid violence or getting fucked and i and buffalo would you're way less likely to get your car's gonna be by the way your car will be parked on the street.

Oh, well, I'm not going to have a car then. Your car will be parked on the street. Get a stick shift. They don't know how to steal it. You want a manual? You lose your stick shift and it's like the Jurassic Park scene. Like, they're learning. That'd be funny.

You'd lose your car. We should probably wrap. I'm going to go watch some shooting videos. I think dinner's ready. Alright, PKN 492.
