You're listening to the Sans Pants Network. We're not answering that. Taking a little gaze. No squeeze.
Scriptizing.
Yeah, so what I tried to say there when I said the wrong words was,
we're a podcast.
Nice to meet you.
Hope you're having a good day.
This is your first episode.
Welcome.
Welcome. We're a podcast.
We're a podcast, and you're a listener.
Yeah, that is true.
We create this for you.
You listen to it wherever you are, the boss, the boss.
The reason that people listen to this podcast is because we're the podcast that asks the important questions.
Important questions such as,
If the lizard from Amazing Spider-Man,
What if the lizard from Amazing Spider-Man 1's plan succeeded and he turned everyone in New York into lizards.
Succinct.
Yes, to the point.
That's how they often describe us.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So in The Amazing Spider-Man, number one,
which is just simply titled The Amazing Spider-Man,
Kurt Connors, Dr. Kurt Connors, I'll put some respect on that name. Yeah, he got his PhD or whatever.
Yeah.
In lizardology or something.
He's missing a limb.
I believe it's his arm.
He is missing his arm, correct.
Basically, he's been working on trying to fuck around with his DNA to grow his arm back.
Regenerative DNA because he's like, well, if you cut off a lizard's arm, a lizard's arm grows back.
Why not my arm grow back?
Yeah.
He's like, I don't want to be a lizard, but I want the power of a lizard.
I don't want to be a lizard, but I would like some of the powers of a lizard of arm growing.
He jinxed himself when he said that.
Yeah, and then unfortunately-
Now that I've turned into a lizard, maybe it's pretty cool.
Yeah, so basically he fucks it and turns into a lizard man.
Yeah.
And then whilst a lizard man, he's like, actually, this was unreal.
This is baller.
It's cool to be a lizard man.
And in fact, I loathe humans.
They're puny, they're pathetic, they're loathsome.
When you cut off their arm, the arm don't grow back.
They can't climb up buildings, they've got hot blood.
All of this stuff sucks.
Did his loathing of humanity come from...
Do you want to hear his speech from the movie?
Yeah.
I spent my life as a scientist
trying to create a world without weakness. I spent my life as a scientist. Lizardier. Lizardier.
Trying to create a world without weakness, without outcasts. Almost like a snake tongue.
I sought to create a strong human being.
Yeah, roll the bars.
Roll the bars.
But there is no such thing.
But there is no such thing.
Human beings are weak, pathetic, feeble-minded creatures.
Why be human at all when we could be so much faster, stronger, and smarter?
And smarter?
Smarta.
Okay.
This is my gift to you.
Okay.
A little Dracula laugh.
What I want to know.
Yeah.
Now, Kurt Connors, prior to lizardification, did he also think humanity was weak?
Or when he became a lizard Is this the lizard DNA?
Well I would assume
Do lizards hate mankind?
Well yeah
I mean they've never really gotten the ability to
To like vocalize that
But I assume yes
I sort of thought lizards didn't think about me
Well now but
So
Cause his body has changed into that of lizards
So presumably these organs
Including his brain
Has become lizard
brain yeah sure and i'm guessing the lizard brain mixed with like the ability to talk
now we can sort of vocalize this i was reading about anamorphs uh oh yeah and the part like
there's a scene later on every single one of those books has the most fucked up event
i think i think maybe we've all read the similar thread.
But in it they point out, I'd forgotten about this one,
but they give, I think, again, they give an ant the power to morph
and it morphs into something with sentience and just starts screaming.
That's awesome.
Give them the blessing of awareness of life and answer.
And so I feel that sort of maybe is what happened
with Kurt Connors
aka becoming
a lizard.
So you're saying
he got bonus sentience?
I think it's more
like the lizard brain
took over
and being like
okay I am lizard now
get under a rock
and be warm.
This is great.
Wait a second.
I'm developing thoughts.
Hang on.
Emotion.
Hang on.
Yeah but he's not
fusing with a lizard.
Yeah.
It is funny to think about how badly his experiment went.
Because, I mean, like, obviously he didn't want to turn into a lizard.
But his experiment was, I need to isolate the genetic sequence in lizard DNA that allows them to regrow the limb.
But instead he didn't do that and just put full.
Well, he did grow his limb back.
Yeah, but it was a crapshoot of other lizard bits.
Yeah, because it starts off, he's like, my arm's growing.
Oh, no.
Yeah, that doesn't work for a bit.
Well, no, because the whole thing, and it's the same
thing with every fucking scientist that
goes mad, is that they're like,
hey, don't test this on humans yet.
And they're like, I'm going to use myself as a test subject.
Yes, yes, it works. I'll show them.
Oh, no! I'm a lizard now.
Now, is this the one where it's like, right, I will inject it into some mice.
Yeah.
Okay, it works, but we get lizard mice.
Yes, absolutely.
And then they're like, hmm, this is not good.
Yeah.
And then funding is like, well, we're going to cut you off.
And so then as a mad dash of like I need something quick then I do it on myself
he sees the mice kind of interesting if it was what I'm remembering which it was like hey
we've we've turned these mice into lizards the people at the high up to like yeah cut funding
because that that's huge that seems like remarkable you want that reptilian and mammal
dna have mixed in a mouse. Yeah. That's massive.
Sure, you become a lizard.
Sure, you become a lizard, but that's just one experiment.
If it can be replicated, and it probably can be,
there surely is some applications there,
and maybe, maybe, Kirk Connors,
there's some people smarter than you.
Just putting it out there.
Who maybe could have done this a little bit better.
With some eyes on this, and maybe eye-awns. Maybe. Okay, we are misremembering a little bit better. With some eyes on this and maybe eye-ons.
Maybe.
Okay, we are misremembering a little bit.
Okay.
Fuck.
Because Connors does a weird thing.
Oh, yeah.
So basically, the lab rats, all good.
I don't think they become lizard mice straight away.
Oh, but eventually.
Connors' superior, Rafa, demands Connors begin human trials immediately.
Oh. Connors says, no.afa, demands Connors begin human trials immediately. Oh.
Connors says, no.
I'll become a lizard.
No.
No.
No, no, no.
That puts innocent people at risk.
Then Connors gets fired.
Oh.
So it's his boss that's the piece of shit.
And the boss is like, I'm going to go to the veterans hospital and start dishing it out.
And Connors is like like I'll test it on myself
Just to see how bad this is going to go for the veterans
And then he turns into a lizard
And then he fights the boss
It's going to go real bad for the veterans
The question is what happens if
Connors' boss's planet had succeeded
There'd be lots of lizard veterans
Lizards with combat training
That's scary
Combat training and maybe a little bit of PT.
Yeah, shell-shocked fucking army lizards.
In many ways, Kirk Connors is a hero for what he did.
He goes from I care about people to-
Yeah, which is why I think it's the lizard.
He doesn't merge with a lizard, but introducing that foreign-
Lizard DNA.
Lizard DNA that is definitely affecting how
his brain chemistry works.
He's having lizard thoughts.
I don't know if it's lizard thoughts
or if it's toxic thoughts.
Or just basic, right-of-the-mill
madness that happens to him.
I think lizard thoughts.
So that means that you're saying that the lizard
like lizards
just wish the death like of humanity
like if i made a gecko sentient its first thought would be i wish you jackson were also a gecko yeah
all dead because i don't i don't and i have sentience that i don't wish lizards were people
yeah i don't wish that all things were people although car guy gecko guy. Gecko guy. Cloud guy. Cloud guy.
They'd fall out of the sky.
Yeah, I know.
That's stupid.
Oh, wait.
But I guess they'd get sentient, not gravity.
Yeah.
Good point.
Good point.
I know the clouds are also affected by gravity.
That's how gravity works.
They're a gas.
I understand.
Well, they're a guy now.
They're a guy gas.
Are clouds a gas?
What's...
I think clouds are just condensation and water.
Isn't condensation water? was just condensation and water. Isn't condensation water?
Yeah, condensation is water, and also water can be-
It's just vapor, right?
Yeah, vapor is the-
I don't know.
I just-
Like how ice becomes water if you defrost it.
Yeah, condensation is- well, anything can condensate.
Yeah, but it's-
Anything can condensate, but it's what it's anything can condensate what do you mean you understand
the condensation comes from the air yeah because there's liquid like yeah air is a gas i said
condensation and water you said they're the same thing and i said well anything can condensate
what do you define anything can condensate. Milk? Water in the... It's the water in the milk, right?
No, but what?
No.
No, it's the water in the air.
No, he's saying everything can condensate.
No, but what...
So if you evaporated milk...
Where is the condensation?
Okay, what do you mean in milk?
Because if there's liquid on the outside of a bottle of milk, that's not milk.
I don't think that's what he's talking about.
I think he's saying that milk, just milk can condensate.
Yeah.
What do you mean?
So if you evaporate milk.
You get other stuff left over.
Well, the water in milk, that would evaporate.
That becomes a cloud.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you're left with.
You couldn't get a milk cloud.
No, you're left with.
You know where like the powdered milk?
Yeah.
Well, that's powdered milk.
That's evapor-
It's literally called evaporated milk.
I don't think I meant condensation anyway.
No.
What are you talking about?
I would hope not.
I don't think in the clouds there's condensation.
No, they're a vapor.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What are you trying to say? Well, I just wasn't sure if a cloud're a vapor. Yeah. Yeah. What are you trying to say?
Well, I just wasn't sure if a cloud was a gas.
Because if you go through a heavy cloud, if you're parachuting or whatever, or skydiving, you get wet.
Gas is a state.
Yeah, I know.
It's not just like a-
I know a gas is a state.
Solid liquid gas.
Yeah.
So a cloud is a gas.
Why, okay, fair enough.
Just asking questions.
Did you think it was a solid?
No, I just...
Did you think it was a liquid?
This way of flying a plane is dangerous.
Hit a cloud, crash.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We have to...
It's clear sky, so what we're going to do is we're going to aim for a nice opening and
go above the cloud cover.
Yeah, that's why planes go above the cloud.
So they don't get destroyed when they're
flying.
So, just
to give you a little bit of basic science.
Thanks, man. Sun heats
water. Water evaporates.
Goes into the sky. Becomes cloud.
Becomes cloud in the cloud rain.
Yeah, that's the water cycle, right?
Yeah. I guess like other things can... Becomes cloud rain Yeah that's They call it the water cycle Right don't they Yeah
Yeah
I guess like other things can
No not everything is
Conden
Not everything can like
Condensate
Well conden
We're using condensation wrong
Yeah I know
I'm using it like
How he's using it
Evaporate
But he doesn't know
What he was trying to say
Yeah yeah
Evaporate is what you're
Yeah yeah yeah
Even
Cause you're just
Taking water out
Everything has a
Well not
Actually no I'm pretty confident.
I'm going to not walk that back.
Everything will have a boiling point.
Everything would have a boiling point, which would evaporate it.
Evaporate stuff to make clouds.
Not to make clouds.
I'm thinking like when there's like toxic rainfall, those kind of things,
because there's like stuff is like.
Acid rain?
Yeah, it's been taken up with the water, but it's kind of like glommed onto that water.
It's collected with the water as opposed to evaporating itself.
It's not just like...
Yeah, it's not...
It itself is...
Yeah, yeah.
Well, I've learned something today.
Yeah.
The bad atoms can bond with the water.
So that's probably the death star is educational.
You're not going to learn anything.
And the listeners just got like a grade three science lesson.
They already knew this
the lizard
yeah lizard brain
yeah I think it's him
the lizard's brain taking over
and sure you're thinking is he just dead on madness
or is this what happens when lizards get sentient
but if you like see a lizard
in the wild they tend to kind of be bit bitey
yeah
when shrattened like they have a fight or flight I suppose But if you see a lizard in the wild, they tend to kind of be a bit bitey, yeah? No, they're skittish.
When threatened, they have a fight or flight, I suppose.
Yeah, yeah.
Lizards are skittish, usually.
Yeah.
It just kind of depends what lizard, right?
Like a frilled-neck lizard, he'll fuck up your day.
Well, that'll attack you.
That's a good point.
What lizard DNA did Connors pick?
Okay, maybe dumb question.
Yeah.
Okay, he got one, I get one.
Yeah, that's fair enough.
Do all lizards
regenerate limbs? I don't think so.
I wouldn't think so.
I associate
it with geckos, predominantly,
but I don't know of other. And, to be honest,
I associate it with only the tails
of lizards. I actually don't know how many
lizards regenerate.
I've seen lizards. Okay, well, they do their arm as well. But yeah, I don't think it's all lizards. I think it would just how many lizards regenerate. I've seen lizards. Okay, well they do their arm as well.
But yeah, I don't think it's all lizards. I think it would just be
geckos, surely. Or like a
small subset of lizard
kind. It just says
reptilian DNA.
Well, let's have a look. Well, that's probably his problem,
isn't it? So small reptiles like lizards,
geckos, and iguanas. Okay.
Famous. Being able to
sprout new limbs.
That's probably iguanas, man. Famous. Famous. Being able to sprout new limbs. That's probably iguanas, man.
Alligators can as well.
Yeah, I think I've seen an alligator with a tiny little stump arm.
That's cute.
Kirk Connors tries to, like, does experiments on an iguana to try and remove his own.
This isn't in the movie.
This is from the comic.
Yeah.
Pretty much just, like, trying to reverse engineer a cure.
And he gives an iguana the lizard dna
yeah and the iguana becomes mutated and turns into a creature with the memories of the lizard
so i guess so it is i guess so the lizard of the oh yeah i guess but he just did a crapshoot of
he did a fucking mess of well reptile dna not any specific well i'm assuming it would have been one
particular lizard right that he would have got the would have been one particular lizard, right,
that he would have got the DNA from.
And that lizard probably hates humanity because he's a lab rat.
Yeah, it's a lab lizard.
Yeah, so I guess that's where his fury comes from.
Well, which is weird because it's actually not just hatred for humanity,
it's hatred for Kurt Connors.
Yeah.
He hates himself.
Wow.
And he's taking it out on humanity.
He's got alien lizard thoughts
that are mad at him for torturing the lizard he became yeah it is funny then that his solution
to that is to make everyone else listens yeah would is he lonely uh i yeah he's just trying
to find a lizard wife it yes sorry is unrelated, but I accidentally clicked on the word iguana.
And now here's what happens to iguana.
Iguana then fights Spider-Man and the lizard until both iguana and the lizard make an alliance and fight Spider-Man together.
Does iguana become a guy?
Iguana mutates into becoming a guy.
Why?
Because he's got human lizard DNA now.
He pretty much gets the opposite of what happens to Kirk Connors. Wait, hang on.
Hang on. So, Kirk Connors has the
lizard serum. So,
he, Kirk Connors is
the lizard, and he's trying to cure
it. Oh, okay. He tested
on an iguana. Yep, yep, yep, yep.
The iguana then turns into a guy.
I love that he tried to test the D-lizard
serum on a lizard.
What would have happened?
Comes back to an empty tank.
Did it work?
Did I de-lizard my lizard?
Like a de-scaled iguana, so it's like smooth human skin.
He's the worst scientist.
If I was testing a de-lizarding serum, I would lizard something so I could see if I could de-lizard it.
But because he's got the memories
of the lizard.
Wait, so he's got the memories of the lizard
he is? No, he's got the memories
of the lizard.
So, iguana is
iguana.
I will use
lizard to talk about the lizard and
iguana to talk about the lizard and iguana to talk about the...
Kurt.
Kurt.
Kurt.
Kurt.
Kurt.
Kurt.
Kurt.
Kurt's DNA uses...
Yes.
Yeah.
On an iguana.
Just a regular iguana.
The iguana mutates into a guy and has the same memories as Connor.
That's fucked up because the iguana remembers becoming a lizard.
Well, no, because that's why I was saying lizard before, because it's lizard's
memories. Like, not lizard
is in the creature.
But the lizard's memories.
But the lizard's memories are going...
When you say the lizard's memories...
Who's the first?
Do you mean that there are separate
memories for when Kurt Connors
is the lizard, and he's lizard
formed, that he's forming new memories, and then when he's Kurt Connors, the lizard and he's lizard formed, that he's forming new memories.
And then when he is Kurt Connors,
he doesn't have those memories.
Yeah, does the lizard remember his-
Because then he's got two consciousness in his brain.
Does the lizard remember his Kurt Connors life?
It just says he has the memories of the lizard,
but the lizard are both capitalized.
Yeah, I get that.
But the lizard,
if the lizard remembers being Kurt Connors and transforming into a lizard,
that means the iguana, who is a lizard, now remembers becoming a lizard.
Which is fucked up and so strange.
Well, if you want to hear fucked up, this is how the fight with Spider-Man goes.
Okay.
Spider-Man.
Poor Spider-Man, dude.
Iguana was defeated when Spider-man used a portable version of the machine
that kurt connor's was going to use on himself to de-lizard him to increase the iguana's power
while decreasing the lizards which heals connor's in the progress a process yeah and then with
iguana's powers over increased it seems that the iguana has exploded but so they de-lizard the lizard, so it becomes
pure human. The more he
was becoming human, the more
iguana he was
becoming like lizard plus.
Yeah, and then it turns out that becoming
lizard plus didn't explode him, it just turned
him back into regular iguana.
But I would be so scared.
The cycle of a lizard.
Lizard guy lizard.
Loops back.
He became so lizard, he became more of a lizard, which was the previous lizard.
He became so lizard, he became a lizard.
That's what happened to that lizard.
No, I guess that in a weird way makes sense because you're purging the human DNA.
Yeah.
So if you use comic book fuckery. But you can't be purging the human DNA. Yeah. So if you use comic book fuckery
but you can't be purging the human DNA.
So you've got Iguana, which is 100%
lizard. Sure. Then you're introducing a serum
which is 50%
lizard and 50% human. Yeah.
So now it's 75% lizard
25% human. Sure. Right?
And so then he becomes more of a
so you're getting more of the lizard out of Connors
and then Connors is all 100% man.
That 50% lizard goes into the iguana, which means you now have more of a lizard concentrate.
Yeah, true.
So then it becomes like maybe.
Well, maybe it was transferring man to Liz.
Maybe it wasn't actually increased.
It's swapping it.
So it's taking away that 25% man, putting it into Connors,
and taking that 50% lizard and putting it into Iguana.
I mean, I would just assume it was 50-50.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Iguana comes back.
Iguana's more lizard than man.
Anyway, yes?
Kraven the Hunter wants to hunt him.
That's fair.
A guy called Bob makes a machine called Hunter for Kraven the Hunter to hunt.
Yeah.
Bob is testing it out.
Iguana rattles the machine, but Bob, channeling his own failures in life into anger, uses a special club to tear into Iguana, killing him.
A special club.
I have to ask you a question.
Who's Bob?
I don't know.
No, no, no.
That's fine.
So Iguana became an Iguana
at the end of the Spider-Man arc.
He became a regular Iguana
and then it reversed?
Years later, he's at the zoo and he's back
to bad Iguana.
Is he at the zoo visiting the zoo?
Iguana somehow resurfaced years later.
This takes place in between. So when Bob
killed him, he stayed dead. Yeah, okay. Iguana is still in canon dead. Iguana somehow resurfaced years later. This takes place in between. So when Bob killed him, he stayed dead.
Yeah, okay.
Iguana is still in canon dead.
Dead in the-
Iguana somehow resurfaced years later.
So this takes place after it becomes regular Iguana again.
In the reptile house of the Central Park Zoo,
Spider-Man fought Iguana and various crocodiles.
Is Iguana Iguana or an Iguana?
I'm guessing he is Iguana. Iguana Iguana or an Iguana? I'm guessing he is Iguana
Iguana is
He tackles Spider-Man
So Iguana is back to Guy
I like that that seems like it happened in the reptile house
Where he was captured by the zoo
Well presumably
Iguana gets really angry
Because Peter answers the phone whilst fighting iguana and speaks to aunt
may who's like i haven't seen you in a couple of days peter come over may i'm fighting a fucking
iguana man and then asked him and anna if they were coming for dinner uh that's when he was
dating anna yeah and iguana gets pissed off and and then Peter then gets a call from
Anno in the same fight
this is when Spiderman was Doc Ock
sorry when Doc Ock was Spiderman
yeah yeah yeah
so when Doc Ock was
dying Spiderman came over
and to be like oh you're dying or whatever
but then they switched consciousness
so Doc Ock was in SpMan's body and Peter Parker was in Doc Ock's body,
which he then fucking died.
Yeah.
And Doc Ock's like, well, I'm going to be a Spider-Man there and Peter Parker.
And then he's like, wait a second, Peter Parker didn't get his doctorate,
that piece of shit.
I'm getting my doctorate.
That's awesome.
This was, I guess, all superior.
All righty.
Okay.
Anyway, that's the. This was, I guess, all superior. All righty. Okay. Anyway, that's the story of Iguana.
A lizard that became a man, then became a lizard, then became a man, got angry at Spider-Man
because he wouldn't stop answering his phone, then got killed by Bob with a special club.
Yeah, it's killed by Bob because Bob was controlling the hunter using VR goggles.
Yeah.
Because Arcade
did some bullshit anyway.
No, but then Bob's out of the VR goggles
because Iguana climbs on the VR
thing and rattles it.
And then Bob's like, my life's a failure!
I'll kill you, Iguana!
Man, Iguana has the most tragic
story of any comics character.
He's just a lizard! He doesn't deserve
this. And he thought it was over.
Then one day in a fucking tank in the zoo
he's back to being a man.
When he got turned back into
an iguana, did he still have memories
of being the
iguana and also the lizard?
Do you think when he was an iguana but just an iguana
he remembered being a man?
Yeah, absolutely. That's fucked up.
How many thoughts can a lizard brain contain? Probably one at a man. Yeah, absolutely. That's fucked up. How many thoughts can a lizard brain contain?
Yeah, probably one at a time.
And it's mostly like, need eat, need warm,
and then occasionally was man.
And the iguana stops what it's doing,
and then that thought disappears and it just carries on.
That's where you see where there's a chameleon,
you see that walk and then they just stop mid-walk.
What?
Oh, never mind. Need fly.
Need fly.
Okay, now
a question. So at least we now know what
would have happened to everyone that got turned
into lizards that died.
Bob would be out
for revenge. Yeah, that's
true. So I guess the DNA, if, I guess Kurt Connors is a bad scientist as he is.
What he's doing is just remarkable.
Absolutely.
Not only is he creating like, you know, the DNA from like a creature implanting into like whoever.
And then getting the traits of whatever he's doing.
But he's also implanting DNA.
Yeah.
Implanting memory in that DNA.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I think that, yeah, so the memory is why he's turning,
why he wants to turn everyone into lizards or why he hates humanity
is because that is the thought process of that one lizard.
Of that one lizard that was a lab lizard.
So it suffered, and so it had a resentment in it.
Yeah.
If his plan had succeeded and he turns everyone into lizard,
is he using the exact same DNA of the afterworld?
I was wondering this too.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which means that everyone is now getting lab lizard DNA and memories.
Okay.
So then everyone is now mad at humanity,
and wants more people to be turned into lizards.
Well, then I guess it's just like, because, I don't know,
his lizard machine, which
is going to affect New York. But if we
all then get our own desire to build
a lizard machine to nuke
other countries and cities and
whatever, pretty quickly we'll all be
lizards. Well, I mean, like, if we get the intelligence
of Kurt Connors, imagine the entire
population of New York City all of a sudden has
like, that level of intelligence.
There's going to be lizard machines on every rooftop.
But not even necessarily lizard machines, just
whatever.
Lizard utopia, baby.
It's good for the lizards.
Because you're getting
everyone's going to look like a Goomba from the
Super Mario Brothers movie.
Not the new one, the old one.
His memory.
You're also getting the lizard's memory.
But you also have your own. I memory. You're also getting the lizard's memory. Yeah.
But you also have your own.
Oh, yeah.
I remember being me and then a lizard
and then a man lizard.
Kurt, as a lizard,
never references being a lizard.
Yeah.
Like, as in, like...
He doesn't reference it, surely,
but it's there.
Yeah, but...
Or maybe not.
But maybe it's because
a lizard's thoughts
are not as concrete
as our thoughts.
Do lizards have memories?
Surely.
Lizards remember some stuff.
Like what?
Where to go.
Yeah, they'd have a favorite spot.
Is that memories or instinct?
Memories.
I think lizards have.
Can you train a lizard?
Probably, yeah.
They've proven that goldfish have memories.
Yeah, lizards will have some level of memory.
They won't be acting entirely on instinct.
What I'm trying to say is,
look, so imagine,
all right,
so if we can kind of go with
that Kirk Connors
has gotten the memory
of that lizard
who hates himself
or hates Kirk Connors
and the rest of humanity
and wants to make lizards.
So then he has that in himself.
He's now either being like,
well, that is now my memory
as a lizard.
He puts it out
in the DNA machine.
Whole New York
is now lizards.
So there's going to be
a lot of people there
that now know how to make a lizard machine and with the
wherewithal to be like, I know how to make it and I want to do it.
Other people are now going to then make it but using their
DNA who have Kirk Connors lizard DNA
but also their memories and stuff. So we're going to kind of have variations
of lizards, very minute and whatever. So we're going to kind of have variations of lizards,
like very minute and whatever.
So whoever's going to be the fastest, the quickest,
making the lizard bomb.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's going to have the most.
So what happens if you lizard bomb people who are currently lizards?
Well, they become iguanas again.
Yeah, they were.
Okay.
Because if you use a lizard bulb on people who are lizards
No, but he used a man bomb on an iguana to make iguana
He's using a lizard man bomb on a lizard man
But when Spider-Man makes iguana more of a lizard
He becomes just back to a regular iguana
Yes
So if you're using more lizard juice,
lizard balm,
what happens if you lizard balm
people who are already
turned into lizards?
They probably become
more grotesque.
Yeah.
And less human, I guess.
You're getting more...
So you're getting more
lizard concentrate?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Would they just...
Would they become...
Either would they become
more grotesque
or would they just become lizards?
Yeah, Obama.
Like actual lizards.
But they can't because Iguana was a lizard to begin with.
So you're just going back to lizard.
I'm a man.
So if you put lizard DNA in me and then more lizard DNA in me,
I just become more of a lizard man.
Yeah, and you become basically just a large lizard.
A large lizard?
You can't...
Because Kurt Connors as a lizard
looks like a hybrid of...
A lizard and a man.
But he becomes more and more lizard as the movie goes on,
doesn't he? Yeah, but if you start becoming
more lizard-y,
are you on all fours?
Yeah, I guess so. There's no semblance of, like, I can't wear a lab coat and pants.
No, no, you wouldn't.
The further I go, right?
I think at a certain point you would not be having human thoughts anymore.
You'd just become a big lizard.
Yeah, I guess so.
Is that what Kirk Connors wanted?
Maybe.
Because Kirk Connors, with his lizard thoughts,
decided that humanity was not tough enough,
but lizards were tougher, as evidenced by Dush's speech.
Smarter.
This is like one lizard slash man's opinions.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But if you become a full lizard,
is he like, that's because you're not becoming smarter
if you're just a lizard?
Well, no.
Lizards are dumb.
Yeah, I would assume that would be the unintended consequence, right?
But that's not going to happen everywhere. That'll only happen where the bombs cross dumb. Yeah, I would assume that would be the unintended consequence, right? But that's not going to happen everywhere.
That'll only happen where the bombs cross over.
Although, no, because if you lizard everyone in New York,
and everyone in New York has the power to make a lizard bomb,
and everyone makes a lizard bomb in New York,
then very quickly everyone's lizard.
Yeah, then they'll be sort of going further and further out to the radius.
Well, that depends.
Say you're next door to Kirk Connors
and you get the desire to make a lizard bomb.
Yes.
Do you then have also the knowledge
that you need to go further afield?
Or are you just like,
I'm going to make a lizard bomb right here, right now?
I would assume because you want to make more people lizards
and you look around and everyone's already a lizard,
you'd be like, well, I know what to do.
I've got to go out where there's no lizard men
and make lizards.
Got to get in my car,
drive to the next city.
Catch the subway.
So lizards.
There's a bunch of lizards
all holding their lizard bomb
in the subway.
People who were already
on the subway
who missed all of the lizard gas
being like,
what's happening today?
Is there a convention on?
Do I not get furries?
Oh, furries have changed.
Furries are lizards now.
I guess we call them scalings.
In the movie,
Lizard's new lizard brain, I guess,
wants to continue doing experiments on himself
to give himself more lizard abilities.
So is his quest,
is the lizard part of his lizard brain?
Being like, I need to be full lizard?
Yeah.
Or is it like, I need to be full lizard yeah so then if everyone is be full
lizard but with man brain in the movie it's not that the lizard part of his it's the chemicals
that like he's got general madness yeah okay but um yeah so uh you say general madness i say lizard
i think putting lizard thoughts in your brain would give you general
the serum regenerates connor's lost arm but eventually mutates him into a lizard who goes I say lizard madness. I think putting lizard thoughts in your brain would give you general madness.
The serum regenerates Connor's lost arm, but eventually mutates him into a lizard who goes on a rampage until Spider-Man intervenes.
Escaping into the sewer, Connor reverts, develops an obsession with his new abilities, builds
a makeshift off-site lab, and experiments on himself further due to the chemicals affecting
his mind.
Okay.
So if everyone just became big lizards, that'd probably rule for him.
Well, yeah.
Because there'd be a point where everyone's got to be lizards, right?
And they've got the ability and power and knowledge to do this.
But there'd be a point where you wouldn't because your lizard brain would take over.
And you'd be like, warm?
I need to get hot.
Too cold.
Too cold, hot.
Me hot.
This is the very next sentence.
Yeah.
After the lizard discovers Spider-Man's secret identity on his first encounter,
he develops a mind of his own and asserts himself as a dominant personality,
seeking to mutate all of New York into lizards like himself.
So I guess maybe that is.
There are two consciousnesses in Kurt Connors,
the lizard one and the man one.
The lizard one becomes more dominant, I guess.
When it learns Spider-Man's secret identity.
No, that makes sense.
Does it?
Yeah, no, hear me out.
Because Kirk Connors, the man brain, he's like, oh, I've been betrayed.
This boy that I knew and I just thought he was a guy.
This boy?
This boy.
Oh, my gosh.
This boy that I taught about biology he i thought he was a spider man
and then as he's freaking out the lizard's like the lizard brain's like moment of weakness yeah
i'm in there or is it a thing where it's like oh the lizard or kirk connors is like oh he also has
two two consciousnesses in his body he is a spider man and he is a man man i was thinking that when you see the lizard, you're also a scientist.
You've got a serum full of, I don't know, horse DNA.
You're like, maybe I won't go through with that experiment.
I could be a horse.
Could I live with horse thoughts?
Gallop need apples now.
Running into a grocer.
Oh, well, he's homeless.
Not to my grocery store.
Long tongue.
I keep injecting myself with horse DNA
until I get a really long tongue and long head.
You get a mane down your back.
The thing is, it's like you're looking at that particular horse
that you've got the DNA from
and you're like
did I treat that horse right
am I going to try
and make everyone horses
if everyone's a horse
then no one's a horse
you do have horse thoughts
gallop
winnie
gallop
flies apple need cold need warm Gallop Winnie Gallop Flies
Apple
Need cold, need warm
If somebody doesn't hold their palm flat to me with a sugar cube in it
I'm going to think they've got a handful of carrots
Look at all these guys walking around with these carrots on their hands
It's funny to imagine you get no horse physical characteristics
Just horse thoughts
Just standing there staring at apples at a grocery store I didn't imagine you get no horse physical characteristics, just horse thoughts.
Just standing there staring at apples at a grocery store.
You just bend down with your head and take a bite out.
If you have horse thoughts, do you have the wherewithal to use your hands?
No, I don't think so.
Imagine watching a two-legged human being trying to gallop.
He's falling face first.
Spider-Man coming up behind you and you kick him.
Don't spook me.
It's the horse.
Flies.
Do horses eat apples in nature?
If they could get them.
If they see an apple tree,
I'm sure they'd be like... But you're a man body on all
fours, looking up at an apple tree
being like, how do I get up there?
Well, you could probably...
If a horse...
Do wild horses come in contact with apple trees?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, that's what I was checking.
Okay, that's fair.
If a horse discovered it had opposable thumbs,
could it figure out how to climb a tree?
I think that...
Because it'd be like,
oh, I'm a horse, I can jump.
And it would try and like rear up on its...
Like rear up on your own two legs from all fours
and then plant your hands on the tree.
Then try and like, I can now reach the lower branches.
So looking at the biological makeup of a horse, you think adding thumbs is the only thing that will stop it from getting up a tree?
No, I'm just thinking like, would it realize that it was easier to climb a tree if it had thumbs?
Is it still the rest of the body is just a regular horse?
No, it's you.
It's you with horse thoughts and a horse mind.
I thought you were trying to claim,
because yeah, I knew that I was horse
and had no physical characteristics at all.
But I thought you were being like,
if we gave a horse thumbs.
I'm like, yeah, it's still a horse.
If you gave a horse, like, say, gorilla arms and legs,
Jack and I could figure out how to climb a tree.
Yeah, but then its head's like...
That would be scary, climbing a tree like that,
because you'd always feel like you were falling.
A horse would hate to climb a tree.
Yeah, it's too high up, even though that's where the good apples are.
Famously, good apples are on the top of the apple tree.
They grow up high, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A horse should really learn to turn around and kick the apple tree.
Yeah, that's true.
The apples fall down.
Drop down, and that's where their heads are anyway.
You're thinking you have powerful horse legs
and doing a back kick.
Falling flat on your face.
Well, doing a back kick when I only stand on my two feet
is tricky because I throw both my legs out
and then land on my head.
Well, no, because you're using your hands.
Oh, yeah, you're on all fours.
I could do a kick like that.
Yeah, but not as powerful as a horse's kick.
No, no, no.
So you barefoot kicking like an apple tree, but not as powerful as a horse's kick. No, no, no. So you barefoot
kicking like an apple tree,
I feel hurt. Would Spider-Man
even be alerted to your presence in, I assume,
Central Park?
He'd probably come and do a welfare check on you.
Only in New York!
Then he'd thwip away.
Okay, well, what about once everyone
had become lizards? Yes.
Like it's happened.
The Earth is lizards.
The Earth is lizards. Well, yeah, that's the end goal, right?
So from New York, say he just goes off without a hitch.
Everyone just kind of becomes like the lizard.
Yeah.
No one becomes double lizards.
No, no, no.
There's no double lizarding.
We finally killed off the filthy humanity.
We're just lizard versions of ourselves.
Yeah.
Here's my first thought.
Can Kurt Connors or any of us reproduce anymore?
Yeah.
Okay.
Thank goodness.
No, we see the lizard nude, no cock.
Yeah, but I see a lizard currently nude, no cock.
Where is a lizard?
You press that belly and a wiener pops out.
So I'd assume the same thing.
Really?
Yeah.
Hidden wiener.
Hidden wiener.
That's awesome. You could no longer punch each other in the stomach. Well wiener. Hidden wiener. That's awesome.
You could no longer punch each other in the stomach.
Well, you could.
Your wang is going to flop out.
That's why it's off panel.
But every time Spider-Man punches the lizard in the stomach,
he has a red basket.
That's why he still wears pants.
But he doesn't wear pants.
No, I mean in the comic books.
He has those purple jeans on or whatever.
Fashion forward.
Yeah, so everyone's lizards.
Does life go back to normal?
What about the cold countries?
Well, it's this thing.
Well, they go heating, right?
Norway, are they all lizards?
Yeah, everyone's a lizard.
Yeah, the plan worked.
Everyone's a lizard.
But now, are they just sleeping the whole time? The common goal is for everyone to be lizard, right? Yeah, but plan worked. Everyone's a lizard. But now they're just sleeping the whole time?
The common goal is for everyone to be lizard, right?
So then now everyone is lizard, so everyone doesn't have that goal.
Which I think there's maybe a little bit of malaise that goes through whatever the population is.
Because you're like, oh, our one big goal.
Yeah, the thing we were trying to do this whole time.
We finally got it.
What now?
Well, we'd probably try and perfect human.
Or is it more of a cheer?
Like, we did it.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, I mean, Kurt's goal constantly changes.
That's just the last goal we see him have.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
Because, yeah, at first he's like, I need to-
Now that humanity's gone, what now?
Yeah.
Yeah, because now he's like, I need to cure myself.
Then he's like, no, I need to make myself more lizard.
No, I need to make everyone lizard.
Yeah, yeah.
I've made everyone lizard. Now we to make myself more lizard. No, I need to make everyone lizard. I've made everyone lizard.
Now we need to become more lizard.
Or now that we're all lizard, now we can use our brains and our lizard utopia
and then we can take that to the stars.
Oh, space lizard.
Go meet Galactus.
Yeah.
Make him a lizard.
Is the lizard cold-blooded now?
No.
Okay.
Because in
No because the iguana is
Like the iguana
His weaknesses are like
Temperature and light
The iguana
Because he started as a lizard
He started as a lizard
No where it's the opposite
Because like
You never see Kurt be like
Oh I mean
A bit chilly
Yeah but he's like
He's living in the sewer
Yeah
If he needed hot
Sewer's hot
Sewer's hot
Sewer's hot
Yeah because of all the feces and shit And the methane and needed hot. Sewer's hot. Sewer's hot. Sewer's hot? Yeah, because of all the feces and shit.
And the methane and shit.
And methane.
Sewer's hot, brother.
You'd be sweating in them sewers.
Yeah, dude.
That's bad.
We're going into the sewers, you bring a new jacket.
I'm like, are you sure?
All right.
Yeah, the farts are going to make you hot.
Dude, that's why I'm in just like tighty-whities and a sinklet.
Farts will make you sweaty. Sinklet and a gas and a sinklet. What's going to make you sweaty?
Sinklet and a gas mask.
What's going to make you sweaty, brother?
Yeah, it's like a sauna down here.
A bad sauna.
You're like, why am I coming along on this trip?
See if it truly is hot.
Yeah, but I would assume that the lizard is that cold-blooded.
I don't know.
That's how Spider-Man would often defeat him, right?
In the comics, he might be cold defeat him right using like in the comics
he might be cold-blooded but in the movie he doesn't indicate to me that he's cold-blooded
he's quick he lives in new york and even when he's not in the sewers he still fights yeah yeah
that's true that's true i think it would make sense for him to retain because he gets yeah he
gets some lizard thing but not all lizard abilities he retains a human shape by and large yeah a
fucked up one yeah but he still looks like a guy.
Yeah, he looks like a guy. You're not confusing
him with an iguana on the floor or whatever.
No. Although,
if you put Kirk Connors in the zoo
at a distance, nude,
and you were like, he's a new kind of lizard
we found. I would not believe you.
He's not all fours.
No, it still looks too much like a guy.
I don't know.
You just want to believe that that's real, though.
I could believe... At a distance.
Even at an over distance.
I couldn't be like, oh yes, a person injected DNA
with him and they became half a lizard.
I couldn't believe that. But if we discovered this lizard man
or this nude lizard, I'd be like,
wow, that's crazy. They found a lizard
that looks like a guy. Is he evolving?
In the weaknesses of this particular lizard, it's only mental instability.
Wow.
All right.
There you go.
That's what I was wondering.
I was like, if we all become lizards, in the colder areas, is everyone just going to be sleepy all the time?
But I guess not.
I guess everyone's just kicking it sweet.
Yeah, they don't give a shit.
Okay, so when he transforms into the lizard, Connor's regenerated right arm has four fingers instead of five, and the middle and ring finger fuse together.
So I guess married couples who wear wedding rings are going to have to get that resized.
Yeah, damn.
That's something.
But it seems like otherwise we just revert back to normal life.
Everyone just is lizards.
Everyone has basically now, what, tail, claws, regenerative healing factor, superhuman centers, stamina, reflexes, agility, durability,
and speed and strength.
So we just all become a bit more scaly.
Yeah.
But we become more durable.
We become hardy.
I think the cons, I mean, the pros far outweigh the cons.
I'm kind of on that camp as well.
Because I'm like, yeah, look, there's going to be some TV issues.
There's an adjustment period, sure.
And the kind of thing to be like, right now, I don't find, like, you know, scales attractive.
Yeah.
But with my new lizard brain, I would find the idea of smooth skin disgusting.
So.
Yeah.
You would, yeah, at time of recording, if you had a lizard wife, you'd loathe her.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But if you were lizard, you'd love your lizard wife.
I think I could love a lizard wife now.
Yeah, I guess if she's your wife already, then you've already fallen in love.
Yeah, that's nice.
Love conquers all.
Love does conquer all, that's beautiful.
Conquers having a lizard wife.
Love conquers having a lizard wife love conquers lizard wife
and then yeah
because I'm imagining
like you know
yeah you would
you're in a relationship
where we turn into lizards
and then it's like
well I remember
being in love
and now this lab lizard
has like
oh what's that
and maybe love
does conquer all
but
I don't know
we're conquering
it also depends on
like which part
of the lizard DNA gas this is at.
Because if it's final form, Kurt, we're kicking it sweet.
We're all just stoked to be a lizard.
But if it's the first form, we get monstrous self-loathing and want to fix ourselves.
Yeah, that's true.
That's true.
I'm assuming it's the end stage because that's where he'd be doing the DNA.
Oh, yeah.
I guess that's when he's made the gas.
Would I get a new lizard nut?
That's pretty cool.
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe.
Yeah, because it would push out the old one.
Yeah, but would it push out?
You've got a sack, so unfortunately you've got three nuts.
Yeah, well, yeah.
People used to pay top money for this.
That's awesome.
But also if I become a lizard.
You'll have two regular nuts and a fake nut in one sack.
But actually.
But it's a lizard sack.
Scaly.
Actually, no.
It'd be all inside you.
Yeah.
I die because my fake nut is inside my body now, and my body rejects it.
Because it might have to, like, push it out.
You know that inside your nut still counts as inside your body now.
I know.
Yeah, but, like, more internally.
Yeah.
There's a full rearranging of my organs.
When someone shoots a wolverine in the head with a gun and like the bullet pops out, I
feel something like that because then you've got people with like, like, like stents.
Yeah.
Yeah.
True.
People have artificial arms, artificial hips, knees, anything like that.
Plate in their head.
So like all of those those things that we have
will have to be...
Or do all of those people just die?
Not so much die,
just the lizard growth
grows over it?
If you have a plate in your brain to replace...
Skull?
Skull?
If you are missing parts of your brain...
Skull?
No, I'm saying brain. If you're missing parts of your brain. Skull? No, no, I'm saying brain.
If you're missing parts of your brain, then you get lizardified.
Do you get more lizard brain than the rest?
Sir, Phineas Gage is fucking strolling around New York City being like,
I'm a real piece of shit.
I got a pole through my head.
Look out, everyone.
That's Phineas Gage.
And he's been in a foul mood ever since that railway spike obliterated his frontal lobe.
I'm pissed off.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
I'm Phineas Gage, bitch.
What's that in the sky?
Oh, I'm becoming a lizard.
A lizard in the escape.
It's such a beautiful day.
It just pushes out his metal rod.
As his brain reforms a tube of lizard brain within his man lizard brain.
Well, yeah, it would form the new brain, whatever is there, and new connections going on.
Just because Kurt Connors' hand that is a lizard hand is more lizard than the rest of him,
because it's got four fingers, right?
Well, initially it just uh doesn't it initially it
just becomes a like a regular hand yeah i'm lizardified okay so i think it would be a regular
brain that would then be lizard okay so okay you know that's i was just like i felt like
yeah i was just unsure if the missing bits were more lizard but i guess not and if it's all
question yeah so if it's all from his dna and he's like lizardifying everyone, say for example that he himself has like both his testicles
and then you get lizardified.
That's just regenerative kind of thing.
But is it using him as a template?
Say for example, Kurt Connors or the lizard, whatever he becomes.
Say he has
something degenerative.
Maybe he's got one kidney.
Yeah, sure.
That sounds unrelatable.
So his template for him
is one kidney.
Do we all then get one kidney?
No, because the human template
is us.
It would only be if the lizard had
some fucked up lizard thing going on.
No, but it...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because we're all using his DNA.
Yeah.
Because he's using the combination of Kirk Connors and the lizard on the lizard gas.
Yeah.
And we're all turning into lizards.
I was turning into variations of ourselves with a lizard, or we're turning into, say,
Kirk Connors as a lizard.
We're all becoming clones of him.
If you are born with
only one kidney is that in your dna no i don't i don't think it is because then that would make it
a um oh yeah true uh yeah i know what you mean uh oh no what's the word when you get a thing
and it's part of your DNA,
so like when you have a kid.
Yeah.
No, not degenerative.
No, degenerative is like when it gets worse.
Hereditary.
Hereditary.
Hereditary, yes.
I should have thought of the movie.
Yeah, dude.
Yeah, that would make it.
I don't think it is.
I mean, I haven't had a kid, so it might be.
I don't think it is.
I don't think it is.
So you're just getting base.
My parents have both of their kidneys.
It's human. it'd just be base
base human temple
oh
this is unrelated
but it's a funny story
yeah
and I guess
it's
well it's related to one kidney
yeah
I had to get an ultrasound
when I had a cancer scare
by the way I'm fine
I forgot I said that
in an episode
and I got lots of
panicked messages
I don't have cancer
nice
currently
who knows in my future
time will tell
but one of the things
stage 5
is in the distant future
somewhere
yeah thank you for all the kind messages
I'm fine
but one of the tests
was they were doing an ultrasound
on my kidney
but the doctor
had been like
to the ultrasound technician
ultrasound on kidney
and they wrote kidney
but they never specified which side
and the person
didn't like check they just like oh kidneys ultrasound oh my god you don't oh my goodness
uh so basically what happened is just by coincidence the first one they did was decide
that i have my kidney and i was like oh okay well they clearly know what's up and they're like oh
yeah just roll over and i was like oh this is weird maybe they're just checking to make sure
because i was on my side where i was facing the person when they were like doing it i saw like and I was like, oh, this is weird. Maybe they're just checking to make sure. Yeah, like, I'm on the other side. Still hasn't grown? Yeah, but then,
because I was on my side where I was facing the person,
when they were, like,
doing it,
I saw, like,
I wouldn't quite say
that the color
left their face,
but they were, like,
very confused
and could,
clearly a little bit scared.
And I, like,
was watching while they were, like,
started pushing a bit harder
and moving it around more.
Where the fuck is it?
Where the fuck is it?
And I was like,
oh, hey,
I don't know if it says that but i've
only got one kidney and they were like oh i think they were very much also bracing to be like yeah
you're sick because your kidney's gone we don't we don't know where it went we need to get you
got a hospital hospital it was funny watching a medical professional get scared and then also
i mean a little concerning because you know you don't want a doctor to look scared when they're looking at you.
I remember that when I got the ultrasound on my cancerous nut where he was looking at it and he had this look of like, oh, no.
And I was like, is everything okay?
And he's like, you talk to the doctor.
I assume he was just an ultrasound technician.
He was in no position to diagnose me with testicular cancer.
But he knew what he was looking at.
Oh, yeah.
This guy's nut is frog-like.
Sir, I cannot medically say what's wrong with you,
but this is the worst nut I've ever seen.
Hey, was your nut fucking busted beforehand?
You get a fucking skunk-ass nut?
Diagnose you with skunk nut,
brother. Okay, fair enough.
Up top.
Chill, dude, chill.
Well, that's funny we've both had that thing.
No, no, no.
It sounds good.
Stank nut.
You got a stank nut.
Damn.
Yeah, anyway, so that's just a funny aside.
That's great.
So I guess if it's not, because I was worried that if we, because now we're fucking with DNA.
Yeah.
And it's like if the lab lizard DNA can go into Kurt Connors, then I guess they're going to us.
We still got ours.
So I guess hopefully that wouldn't overwrite anything.
Yeah.
Like this brings back to what I was saying before.
Like is the lizard DNA that he's putting in the gas from him,
or is it just a version of the injection he already gave himself?
Because if so, then I guess they're very early on.
Yeah, that's true.
But then, because later on,
or is it a version that he's made later on
when he's trying to give himself extra lizard powers?
True.
Because, yeah, if it's the first one,
everyone's marching into that famous New York
City sea. Gonna go visit
Our Lady of Liberty
on foot.
Oh no, they didn't make it.
I think that just the implications
that if you put lizard DNA
in a person, you get a lizard person.
Like that, Spider-Man should tell people.
Like,
Spider-Man just sees the lizard and he's just like,
anyway, dude, back to my apartment.
Yeah, I think there's like any animal testing stop.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah.
Well, I don't know because it's kind of like you can,
if you inject this or have this pill,
you make it so it's like less of a permanent thing
and more of like a temporary thing or like a pill form or whatever.
But you can have the memories of this dog that we've treated real good.
We have got the memories.
That's just awesome.
I'm eating a dog pill to have dog vibes.
You can finally be happy.
Dog vibes?
Yeah.
That's what I'm suggesting.
Yeah, no, I know, but like.
Dog memories. Why, that's what Sam is suggesting. Dog memories.
Why is that good? Because we've treated this
dog real well, and the dog loves having
a good time. And you can experience...
Are you telling me if there was a pill, we could experience
life, the memories of... Dog vibes.
Not forever. Well, forever.
It's like a designer drug. Yeah.
Dog vibes drug. You could experience...
I open up and I'm like, dude, you want some dog?
And you can experience this particular dog. Or and I'm like dude you want some dog and like
you can experience
this particular dog
or we can be like
hey
we have the memories
of this guy
dude alright
you don't want some dog
I got heaps of guy
yeah
pill to take
memories of someone else
yeah
that
wouldn't be a nice high
that would be
I've lived that man's life
depersonalization
on purpose.
But then you would come back.
It would almost destroy your ear, I think.
It's kind of like doing the bad part of a K-hole on purpose.
Yeah.
You really want to make sure that the person we're getting the pill from,
they have lived a good life.
But even if they have lived the best life, then you come down and there's a moment where you're like,
but the memories of fate, you're like, who am I?
And that would happen every time.
The three of us, we're clubbing.
And I've popped, like we often do.
After recording every day.
And I'm popping quite like early 30s, mid 30s, going clubbing, popping dog pills.
Popping dog pills. Yeah, the type of guys you see popping pills all the time. You, going clubbing, popping dog pills. Popping dog pills.
Yeah, the type of guys you see popping pills all the time.
You know what?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like clubbing.
Clubbing, you go to a club.
Yeah.
As we all know, because we're there all the time.
Of course.
We've put into the second group here.
There's like early 20s.
Yeah.
Gap.
Yeah.
Mid 30s.
That's clubbing.
Yeah. But I'm popping a bunch of dog pills. Yeah. You lose tracks. That's clobbering.
But I'm popping a bunch of dog pills.
You lose track of me in the crowd.
Where's Jackson going?
He took too many dog pills.
You go outside, I'm pissing with one leg up on one of the walls.
You got to wait till I come down thinking I'm full of dog.
Take me to the hospital.
It's dangerous.
Yeah.
I was the one saying no.
You're saying yes. No, no, I'm on your side.
I'm saying dog
is scary it's a scary drug like is it gonna be there is no drug is this a like you take it you
get the memories and you straight away back again like after say for you maybe 10 seconds past or
you're just describing dmt now yeah but with a dash of the memories of a dog. With memories instead of like the DMT pixie or whatever.
So the dog pixie.
Dude, the dog pixie took me on a dog journey.
It walked me.
I keep talking about how I had a spiritual awakening and you're like, you were just a dog.
Yeah, you just pissed outside.
You just started lapping up like from a bowl of water.
Dude, I get what it's all about now.
I understand the meaning of dog life.
Man life eludes people.
Yeah.
So I guess there is like a wide application for a lot of what the lizard or the
Curve Connors was experimenting on. But
if we were successful and we all turned to lizards,
yeah, I think there would be this
little bit of teething problem. But by and large,
maybe good. I think it would be awesome.
I think Curve Connors was kind of a little bit right right i think that it's going to cause such an extreme existential crisis
even if we do have the memories because then we're creating new memories and surely at some point the
old feelings slowly fade back yeah i'll fade back yeah i guess that's what happened to iguana yeah
one day i'm just like sitting on a hot rock and I'm like, oh my God, I was Jackson once. Yeah. And then it goes.
Yeah.
I think life as a guy versus life as a lizard guy.
I prefer guy.
Guy is better.
Guy is better.
But lizard's number two.
This is something out of my control, you know?
I can't control not being a lizard man.
I could adapt to being a lizard man.
I think we would adapt.
We would all adapt.
I think we'd come out of it alright.
Sure, like housing would be different. So we're saying it's
good even though it's worse just because
it's manageable. Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Get the nail on the head though.
Jack gave me a cancer diagnosis.
It's bad. It's bad.
Manageable. Manageable.
Jackson looked at me when you
said it's bad because he had no idea
where the next spot was
It's bad, but it's good
It's bad, but it didn't happen to me, so that's fine
It's bad, but it was funny
Which it was, it was very funny
Yeah, hilarious times, dude, losing a nut
In many ways it's sad that I don't also have cancer
Dude, I wish you'd lost a nut too
Because that's Abbotwood inevitably
He's so scary
Yeah, absolutely
And then there have to be studies too
if being a podcaster
that being in podcasts
that are so bad
gives you not cancer.
Yeah.
And the answers
would be a resounding yes.
It's funny like
I lose my not to cancer
you lose your not to cancer
Zamba just jumps
like a barbed wire fence
from.
Why?
What the fuck?
Of all the ways
I could have lost my not
this one has a lot of pain!
Yeah, ours were a bit scary, though.
Wow, yeah, you lost your nut to this freak barbed wire fence accident.
Also, your remaining nut is full of cancer!
Then I'd be scared that my second nut was going.
Yeah, it goes up to Zabit and then it comes back down to me.
You two jump over the barbed wire fence.
Hey, we're plumbing
the desk,
aka the eunuch boys.
We all have a problem
with...
We all had a bout
of cancer
and issues
with barbed wire fences.
Yeah.
Turns out
God does punish podcasts.
Yeah, he takes their nuts.
Still got a sack though,
baby.
Yeah, empty sack.
Empty sack, you got no fake nuts. Yeah Yeah empty sack Empty sack
You got no fake nuts
Yeah
Empty sack
No fake nuts
The floppiest dick
Awesome
On that note
I've been Joel
I've been Jackson
And I've also been Joel
Look after your nuts I guess
Yeah dude
Check yourself for cancer
Yeah
It's important
Yeah
Or go to a doctor I guess
Yeah they can check you too
Yeah
But it's easy
Just you thumb up the side And down the front I can see everyone Check yourself for cancer can check you too Yeah It's easy Just your thumb up the side
And down the front
I guess yeah everyone
Check yourself for cancer
Yeah
It's important to do
Especially if you're getting older

Oh we're all aging
