Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello, and welcome to another episode of the F*** Face Podcast. My name is Jeff Ramsey, and with me, as always, I gotta be honest with you, it's the most talented bunch of boys and girls in the whole podcasting industry. Clearly, I'm talking about Andrew Panton from all the way up in Vancouver Island, Canada. Andrew, I have to ask you real fast. Are your ankles strong today? Oh, 100%. 100% ankles.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Are your teeth firm? Teeth are fine. Well, yeah, they're okay. Knee is fucked, but we're fine. We're good. Well, maybe we can get into the knee a little bit, but I got to say. Oh, we did. The Swiffer issue. Still recovering, but it's fine. Right, right, they're okay. Knee is fucked, but we're fine. We're good. Well, maybe we can get into the knee a little bit, but I gotta say... Oh, we did. The Swiffer issue. Still recovering, but it's fine. Right, right, right. So you're still just working through that.
Starting point is 00:00:50 Well, I hope it's a swift recovery, not to be funny there. Gavin, my best friend in the whole world. Wunderkind, filming extraordinaire. You were far more successful in your other career as a slow-mo guy. How are you doing today, man? How, how you been? Firm teeth.
Starting point is 00:01:11 Good, good. Were you, were there, were your teeth in question? Nope. They were not on the injury report. Now I hear lately you haven't, you haven't been sleeping well. Yeah, there's nothing new there though. I mean, I'm a shit sleeper. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Well, I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe maybe have you ever tried any homeopathic remedies uh like huffing a bunch of shite well there's probably a healthier way to to express that but yeah there might be some solutions you could look into maybe yoga or maybe i know a lot of people find uh they transcendental meditation helps them with their sleep. But it's not just you guys and me here. It's also Eric, producer extraordinaire, Nick, and Gracie. You guys are somewhere back there in the weeds making everything happen, keeping us on our toes, as it were. Hello. How are you doing today, Gracie?
Starting point is 00:01:57 How's your dog? My dog is asleep on the wooden floor, but she did pee and poop in the kitchen this morning. That could be a sign of distress or illness. You want to take a... I think it's a sign of her losing bowel control at her old age. Oh, that's... I'm sorry to hear that.
Starting point is 00:02:15 I must admit, I went through that with two dogs recently. It's heartbreaking. It's okay. She looks great doing it. I'll be honest with you. I'm going to have you in my prayers. I'm going to be thinking about you. You and the dog every night. Gracie's dog is a model. It's stunning and perfect. Don't be honest with you. I'm going to have you in my prayers. I'm going to be thinking about you. You and the dog.
Starting point is 00:02:25 Gracie's dog is a model. It's stunning and perfect. Don't say anything about her. She's a model. She got tapped to be a model. Wow. For what? Like a canine incontinence model? Well, maybe a little bit.
Starting point is 00:02:42 She modeled for a pet supplement brand. Did they Photoshop Tim Allen's eyes on it? No. She has pretty little eyes. Non-human like eyes. Hey, Nick. How's the Bambino?
Starting point is 00:02:59 How's your family doing? They're doing great, man. We're having a good time. I don't know, man, but I'm having a good time. I don't know what Jeff's doing. I'm so glad to hear it. I'm so glad to hear that everybody seems to be doing good. Oh, they're doing great, man. We're having a good time. I don't know, man, but I'm having a good time. I don't know what Jeff's doing. I'm so glad to hear it. I'm so glad to hear that everybody seems to be doing well, thriving and surviving, even though there's clearly some difficulties in all of our lives.
Starting point is 00:03:12 You guys don't seem to be letting it get you down. You're maintaining a positive attitude. How are you, Jeff? I want you to know I appreciate that. Well, I'm doing really well, too. Thanks for asking, Gavin. I got no complaints, you know. I have the new puppy myself, so that can be a little bit of a handful,
Starting point is 00:03:26 but I'm working through it. What do you guys want to talk about today? I would just like to make an update for my introduction. I'd like to be referred to as the cock winner, Andrew Panton, from now. We can do that. Going forward. We can absolutely do that. The big cock win last week.
Starting point is 00:03:39 It's a great trophy. Thank you so much for that. Referred to as the Canadian cock winner? Whatever, any variation, as long as it's included. The Vancouver cock winner? Oh. Could be. It makes me uneasy that I never know what a recording is going to be like.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Yeah? Let's get into that. What do you think that comes from, Gavin? That's interesting. I think you. All right. strong gavin that's interesting i think you all right when you say me in specific like you never you're doing oh is it because we don't we don't always go over notes ahead of time to let me never know like what we said ahead of time so i agree it is always a bit of a mystery what we're going to walk into but that's i think that's part of the fun of the of what we do here
Starting point is 00:04:23 guys right guys and girls i would say it's more to do with the consistency of the people interesting why don't we peel back those layers well i feel like i'm i'm single layered uh i i enter pretty much the same every week it's it's quite predictable i think and to you you see value in predictability is what i'm surmising from that statement would that be uh would that be correct i just want to be a reliable constant in the lives of my friends well if that is if that is your stated goal let me tell you gavin you have hit a home run every day that we've been friends you you definitely you definitely uh have achieved that over and over and over again a bastion of uh of steadfastness is what i would i would refer to you as huh i can i can i talk about something or
Starting point is 00:05:21 talk about uh consistency and and all that stuff and being a good friend? Because Gavin, I mean, it's really, it's my fault, but Gavin has been a consistent pain in my ass for like the last two and a half, three months, and he doesn't even know. Oh, no. He put me in a nightmare of my own doing, Jeff. Oh, no. I'm so sorry to hear that. No, it's okay. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:05:42 You don't need, that's a little much. It's okay. And Gavin doesn't know he's done this, right? He doesn't know. I bet you Gavin has forgot that he's even done this to me. I bet Gavin's feeling really confused and guilty right now and doesn't know why. So let's get to the bottom of this so he doesn't have to drag that feeling. I don't even remember how it started.
Starting point is 00:05:58 But I had the thought of, I wonder if I could find a place in Austinin and if gavin would be able to find it on google we're talking about google map stuff at oh i remember this yeah yeah so i picked a random spot on google maps and sent it to gavin be like yeah it's gonna take him forever to find this and gavin determined the location within about 10 minutes maybe And it turns out that the place... Well, I've been there before. Yeah, the place I had picked, Gavin had been to twice. It was a random coffee shop that I picked. And he had been there on two separate occasions and he instantly found one.
Starting point is 00:06:35 And then he said to me, do you want one? And I said, sure. You know, like I live in a much smaller place. It'd be easier for me. So Gavin sent me a photo of a house and I have not been able to find this fucking house for like three months now and i've been roaming the streets
Starting point is 00:06:51 and google maps sometimes i just go for a drive and i just drive around seeing if i can because it's a very uh noticeable house it's it's like i would recognize it immediately the place you live much smaller than austin so much smaller, as I said. It's a lot smaller of a community, so I thought, whatever, like, yeah, I'll do one, and I'm sure I'll recognize it. But the angle and everything he picked, it's so hard to tell. It looks like it'd be so many places. Obviously not gonna
Starting point is 00:07:16 share a photo of this house, but I have been haunted by this stupid house that Gavin sent, and I thought that I would be the one making him on a chase for a while. Took him ten minutes. I'm three months in not any closer I'm nearing the point of having to make like a grid of the entire city
Starting point is 00:07:32 and like marking off what streets I've been on now is this a single family home from what you can tell two story like two story like a freestanding yeah okay interesting interesting it it is it feels like something you should be able to remember or recognize and i have no idea where it is but
Starting point is 00:07:52 i've been i've been roaming the internet streets whenever i have free time looking for this house and it is so annoying that i haven't found it yet i can understand how that'd be pretty perplexing uh gavin this house it is it within the the confines of vancouver island he's looking he's looking in the right place he just it's kind of like finding a needle in a haystack it sounds like but it shouldn't be it should it's like it's like a needle in a few strands of grass is more i'd say the analogy is definitely harder because i just picked some house which is definitely a place you wouldn't have been unless i got really lucky. Whereas you gave me a much more easy one. Because I could tell
Starting point is 00:08:27 by the look of it that it was pretty modern in Austin. And then I realized I'd been there. And then I think I sent you a picture of me and Trevor there. Yeah, I think you did. It was annoying. And I felt like you had done a magic trick.
Starting point is 00:08:43 How cool would it be if you sent Gavin a picture of you and Trevor at this house that would be something to shoot for huh think about for sure Andrew do you remember when I exported that fruit-throwing video for you without audio and then I exported my next actual video yes I didn't have audio. Do you remember the text I sent you? No. I feel like we go over that text every episode. I'm surprised you don't remember it. Well, I sent you a text,
Starting point is 00:09:13 and you thought I was talking about something else. What did I think you were talking about? Well, I was hoping you would remember, to be honest. Let me go back to the message. I don't remember any of this. You don't remember when I said, like, you've screwed me? Oh, yeah, yeah, I was hoping you would remember, to be honest. Let me go back to the message. I don't remember any of this. You don't remember when I said, like, you've screwed me? Oh, yeah, yeah, I remember that.
Starting point is 00:09:30 Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. Yeah, I know what we're talking about now. What did you think I was talking about? Uh, well, we were... Did it ever come into play, Gracie, what I was talking about? Damn, Gracie, is it on this? Because there was a possibility. Remember the thing I dictated for a long time
Starting point is 00:09:50 ago yeah did that ever happen because there was a possibility on the second day that they could have arrived and that's the last I heard about it wait I need you to slack me okay I'm just we're gonna skip this part.
Starting point is 00:10:06 I'll just go right into it. So we did, you guys did, does it do? And it was sponsored by shady rays. And at the time, I found it. I found the message. Yeah. I thought, cause you said you fucked me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:17 And you said you look like the coolest kid in third grade. Yes. Cause like an hour later you said, what do you think i did and i explained what i was talking about and because you said disregard my original response to this conversation and i realized now i never followed up on what the goddamn you were talking about now i know what you're talking about and andrew it didn't end up happening oh that's sad that's too bad so shady race kind enough to sponsor does it do and it was you two were asked what sunglasses you would like to wear during the video to do it
Starting point is 00:10:52 but i think it was around the time of your wedding jeff so neither of you were around and i said if they don't answer you i will do this i'll i'll pick for them and so i picked you a really cool i think was like the Falcon or something Jeff I picked you some cool pair of glasses and then I picked Gavin something that reminded me of like what I would have thought was really cool in third grade and looked ridiculous and you
Starting point is 00:11:15 sent me without context the day of the first shoot you fucked me which perfectly aligned with what I was going for because I just thought even though they're a great looking pair of sunglasses, they would not, I think, fit with your personality or look at all. So that's what I thought you were talking about.
Starting point is 00:11:33 And then I messaged Gracie about it and she let me know that the sunglasses didn't actually arrive that I picked, that you're using different ones. In which case, I had no idea. Then I had to circle back to you to figure out what I had done to you, which I still don't think
Starting point is 00:11:47 was really my fault. That's a big kerfuffle, guys. I think we straightened it out. Glad we got to the bottom of that. The pair of glasses that Emily took the other day after the break show were one of the pairs. I assumed that that's what they were
Starting point is 00:12:03 when she took them. Looked good on her, though. Emily looked cool as fuck with those sunglasses. Those things were rad as shit. They were great. Hell yeah. That's a lot of expletives from Eric, but you can tell he means what he's saying.
Starting point is 00:12:15 You gotta appreciate that. Goddamn right. Yeah! All right, I like Nick chiming in. So does the audience, Nick. You're an audience favorite, and clearly for good reason. That's awesome. Let's take a quick poll of all the talent on the show real quick.
Starting point is 00:12:32 Just, I have a couple of questions. Okay. One, does anyone think that Nick has worn the mask so far this year? No, I don't think so. Okay. No. Second question. How are we feeling about the Jeff in this episode?
Starting point is 00:12:48 It's weird because it was pretty normal about 25 minutes ago. It is a dramatic. We just recorded a bunch of stuff. And Jeff, the tone has shifted in the past which I really I'm wondering if something happened in the 15 minutes between when we stopped and started this or Jeff was alone or if this is a calculated
Starting point is 00:13:14 move going into this episode now is that is that just thrown out to the group as a whole or would you like me to address I feel like that was more pointed at you. Okay, gotcha. Well, I'm not sure,
Starting point is 00:13:29 if I'm being completely honest with you, Andrew, and I try to be at all opportunity. I'm trying to be honest with myself, trying to be honest with everybody. I think it's an important trait in a human being to have. I don't, I guess I don't know what you mean. If there's a difference in tone or a shift,
Starting point is 00:13:47 I would personally attribute it to the fact that the previous content we were filming was video game content, and then this is podcast content. And so maybe there's some sort of a... Maybe there's something in me that I don't even recognize that's unconscious where I switch roles slightly,
Starting point is 00:14:03 or maybe I just have... There's been a slight shift in gear I think but I'm not looking at anything I'm just like using my mind theater of the mind right that's what we always say about the podcast yeah and so um yeah I guess I don't I guess I just I guess I'm not aware of it if it's there yeah I would say it's uh you've shifted down it to use truck the trucks terminology I think you're getting out of the mud is what it sounds like speaking of getting out of the mud can i tell you guys i played trucks last night for a couple hours it was the first time we'd played in over a week it uh it we just hadn't
Starting point is 00:14:34 been able to sync up and get together in a while and then it wasn't working it was it was real bad the last few times we tried but with the new dlc coming out i thought let's give it a shot you know let's give it the old college try even even though I didn't really go to college. And it was working. It worked great. And we played for hours and hours last night. And I got so stuck in the mud and I got so unstuck in the mud. And we did a bunch of missions.
Starting point is 00:14:54 And it was just a great time. Just a great time. Really happy that I got to do it. You guys been playing any fun video games lately? It's funny that you mentioned that, Jeff. There is a certain video game that is huge right now called pow world everybody's playing pow world it's all over the place uh i haven't tried it yet and one of the main reasons i haven't played it yet despite almost
Starting point is 00:15:18 everybody i know playing it is you brought up in our group text, maybe a week ago at this point, has anyone here played pal world to which Gavin and I said no. And then you replied to that by saying, maybe don't, maybe it's a great first impression video. So despite everybody I know playing pal world, I decided I'm not going to play with my friends outside of the recordings or anything. I'm just,
Starting point is 00:15:43 this is, I'm going to save it because jeff thinks it would be a great first impressions video and then we synced up this morning to record content and immediately i hear from jeff about all of the countless hours of power he's been playing and then you can't get enough of it and we need to get in on this and i quietly went you son of a bitch i have not been playing it because of your suggestion of it being your first view and all you're doing is playing power world at the moment
Starting point is 00:16:10 okay well first of all if you'd allow me the space to respond of course I appreciate you giving me the space I uh listen it's just it's my space right now we'll give you all the space in the world when it's your time I think that's only fair uh i i gotta i gotta be honest with you i feel a
Starting point is 00:16:30 little bit of ire from you and and that that has my hackles up a bit and i'm trying i'm trying not to to let that get the better of me but uh i guess i i guess i would say i stand by what i said in that i always find the best kind of content is when we can discover something for the first time on camera. It always creates the best possibility, as it were. Now, I didn't mean please don't play the game for the next week. I just meant if you guys haven't played it already, let's get in there and film a video whenever is convenient for you all so that we can capture that first moment, because I think it could be magical, right? And then I've been playing. Yeah, I've been playing yeah I've been playing and I have been playing and I'll continue to play and here's why because I
Starting point is 00:17:09 need to be a a good steward in this game I need to be able to lead you guys through it and understand imagine if we all were confused about trucks nobody would get anywhere I had to put a couple hundred hours into trucks so that I could understand how to present it to you guys and how to help you along and And so I was kind of approaching Pal World in the same way. But by all means, if you would like to play it on your own, outside of video, I'm not trying to hold you back.
Starting point is 00:17:33 At all. But I would love to play it with you. You guys are my best friends in the whole world. And I would love to play my current obsession with you guys all the time, if possible. In your defense, I went back and I looked at the text, and you never stated
Starting point is 00:17:48 that you hadn't played it before. I just made that assumption. And I thought it was just very funny, because I've been actively avoiding it. Oh, you assumed, yeah, I didn't realize you assumed that. You know what? That's a lack of communication on my part. I'm gonna write that down, I'm gonna put a pin in that,
Starting point is 00:18:04 and I'm gonna work on that in the future. That's something that I can do to improve our relationship. I'm really excited for when we get to Trucks 2 because I've been playing a lot of Trucks, and I'm out of the mud now. I think it's going to... The jump in my truck ability from video 2 to video 3 is vast. I'm ready for it.
Starting point is 00:18:24 I can't go any further with this dumb thing. I gotta stop. I wore myself out. I appreciate that. I did it as fucking long as I could. I'm losing my life so much to pay attention to it. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:40 I feel like if I was lying, if I was Harvest on Noah, I would have fallen asleep. Once I fucking started, I couldn't stop and then I could tell and here's the thing it was I appreciated everybody rolling with it and it was getting under Gavin's skin and that just
Starting point is 00:18:51 kept it going I couldn't stop because of Gavin like every time every time I got close to winding down he would sigh or go and then I was like ah you just bought another five minutes you little shit yeah I didn't know what was happening but but I know you, so I was like, I just can't react negatively to this in any way.
Starting point is 00:19:08 Eventually, this is going to change. The tide will turn. That sigh must have been completely involuntary because it just flew out of me. I was like, how much of the episode is going to burn for this bit? I wanted to see if I could present a kinder, softer, gentler, more inclusive environment for us to play in. And I see now that that has no business here.
Starting point is 00:19:35 Well, that's just not who we are. It's just not who we are. I think the energy was more the issue. I don't think it was the tone. It was the pacing. It was your verbal pacing. It was throwing me off. I was't think it was the tone. It was the pacing. It was your verbal pacing. I was just trying to keep everybody chill. I'm impressed with Andrew
Starting point is 00:19:49 and his ability to roll with that for so long. Yeah, me too. I was locked in. I'm impressed with my ability to roll with that for that long. No, you could have done that for four hours.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Andrew kept going as though you were being a normal human. Gavin's right 100% I don't think I could have kept that going for four hours that was pretty I was killing I kept it going as long as I physically could and I think
Starting point is 00:20:16 that that was a great depiction of who you are Jeff of you were doing this bit that you don't even really find funny anymore but you're you're annoying Gavin and that brings you joy and so you do it for almost 20 minutes because gavin is so irritated that was like a cold war
Starting point is 00:20:31 yeah in podcasting that was a that was a civil cold war i hate myself so much sometimes i've done so much work not to hate myself in the grand scheme of things, like getting over the alcohol and all that and like learning to like myself
Starting point is 00:20:48 and all the therapy and shit. But there are moments when I get stuck in like, and Eric, I'll speak in terms you can understand. I get stuck in my like bingey stick coma and I just, I can't find a way out. I just won't, like my brain won't let me.
Starting point is 00:21:02 And then I just like fucking hate myself, but I can't do anything about it. When you started it at the top of the episode, I went, well, he didn't have this planned, but he just found this. So I guess we're going to see how long it goes for.
Starting point is 00:21:12 And it went roughly 20 minutes. I didn't have a plan at all. It's just how my, it's just, yeah, I just noticed I was kind of chill. So I just thought, fuck,
Starting point is 00:21:20 I was trying to picture it. Like I was trying to figure out who wronged you between, between recording, but you didn't go anywhere. I don't think so. I was like, man, nobody wronged me. I was trying to figure out who wronged you between recording. But you didn't go anywhere, I don't think. So I was like, man. Nobody wronged me. I was worried something happened in the small space between. I was just playing it chill, man.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Yeah? Chill? Chill and helpful. Just want to give everybody space to communicate and talk. I have a chill update. Let's do it. Y'all persuaded me. You made me come into the fold. You're doing the marathon. I'm
Starting point is 00:21:51 streaming. No, he's streaming. I'm streaming. You're a streamer. I got my stream set. Mm hmm. What's your favorite stream flavor so far? So here's the thing. I haven't got any of the syrup yet for it. So I've been I've been carbonating juices and having a great time. I did some carbonated orange juice the other day.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Did some cranberry raspberry yesterday. This is great. I'm having a great time. Is a carbonated orange juice essentially just an orange Julius? Yeah, it is. It was sort of unnerving. It's a little bit slightly different of a taste, but yeah, it's similar that's a great comparable it feels very fancy too yeah we we could open up our own mall store yeah we just like sell carbonated juices to people or they bring their
Starting point is 00:22:35 own juice and we carbonate it yeah it's like a it's like a byo jc kind of yeah bring your own juice to carbonate this is fucking that's the name of our store It's like a BYOJC kind of thing. Yeah. Bring your own juice to carbonate. This is fucking, that's the name of our store. BYOJC. Did we talk about for Uniform, I know, Jeff,
Starting point is 00:22:54 you were talking about the key that you shove in a, that you wrap toothpaste tubes around and it squeezes it all out. Oh, yeah. Did we talk about Uniform making one of those? No. No.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Because that could go pretty well with the bread clip. You think so? I don't know how to improve upon it. It's already a perfect... Yeah, that's the... That's the problem.
Starting point is 00:23:10 It's like Uniform... Uniform's not just about logo slapping. Uniform's about innovation. No, it's innovation. Yeah, but I think we can innovate. I'm going to get in the lab.
Starting point is 00:23:17 I'll tell you that right now. You've challenged me to get in the lab and see how we can innovate... How we can innovate toothpaste. And as Nick says uh based on our previous stuff slap a magnet on it slap a magnet i have a question for you guys about the streaming
Starting point is 00:23:33 because you're ahead of me on the curve uh currently i have um all of the like bottles for it the the the compressed whatever carbonation uh just in room. Where should I store this? Where should I store the CO2 type things? Huh? Like the CO2 canister? Yeah, the canister. How many do you have? So that's the thing. I bought two. They sent me four. I have four of them
Starting point is 00:23:58 currently. And they're just all around my room. And as somebody who plays a lot of first person shooters, I feel like I'm in an explosive war zone right now. Anytime, like when I see one, my brain just immediately goes, someone's going to shoot that,
Starting point is 00:24:13 fire's going to shoot out the side, and then it's going to blow up. Are they red? No, they're white. I think you're probably fine. They're fine? Okay. Yeah, they're only flammable if they're red. Yeah, only red barrels in Kenist is explode.
Starting point is 00:24:29 I would put them in your closet, so you don't have to look at them anymore, but yeah, you know I Don't know I don't start only have one and it's the one that's in this the soda stream And then when I when it goes empty I just go to Target by new a white canister can explode I mean if you ever shot a white barrel in a video game and had explode propane tanks Your propane tanks not explode if you shoot them? Oh, like Left 4 Dead? Yeah. They'll fire. They'll zoom off. Good point. Yeah, be really careful around it then.
Starting point is 00:24:54 What's a non- What's the most non-exploding color? Would you say blue? Blue, I think, is butane, though, a lot of the time. Oh, it is? What about green? Does green explode? I don't think green explodes.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Paint them green. Okay. Also, I don't think fire would shoot out. I think you have the opposite problem. Oh, really? Like it would freeze. Oh. Green is like noxious gas.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Yeah, you'll die. Can't do that. That's true, yeah. The room would get all green. Poison air. Maybe yellow. Ooh, yellow. Yellow? I got a lot of canisters because i also i bought compressed air because i noticed when i was playing trucks my xbox sounded like it was gonna die and i thought this could either be a
Starting point is 00:25:36 trucks issue or something's going on my xbox in every game it did the same thing so i read that it's uh probably a dust problem. Let me tell you, if you haven't compressed air your Xbox, I'd highly recommend it. I could not believe the amount of dust that shot everywhere. I would say it was like a tomb. It was like we went into a tomb and opened something that had been buried for millions of years. Did you feel like Brendan Fraser?
Starting point is 00:26:03 I did, yeah. It kind of was like in Chernobyl, you know, when it's all the atomic ash coming down and they think it's snow. It was like that out of my Xbox. What kind of Xbox do you have? Xbox Series X. So like the big...
Starting point is 00:26:21 The big, the like little fridge. The fridge one. Yeah. That's the one I have too. And so it was getting loud and then you compressed air and now it's fine? Yeah, it sounded like it was like a snowplow or like a heavy truck outside of where I live every time I tried to play any game on my Xbox. I was wondering why you had compressed air when you were unboxing your cock last week.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Yeah, it was because I cleaned out my Xbox with it. And I would highly recommend it. So, that's a good idea. Yeah. I should try that. I may or may not have just bought a whole new Xbox Series X because my Xbox is overheating.
Starting point is 00:27:00 No! I wonder if I could have just blown it out. God damn it. Well, why don't you try blowing it out? Here's what happened to my Xbox One X. Here's why I think it might be different. Emily always puts up like, you know, 40 billion Christmas decorations. And so the Xbox is on the, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:27:18 on the console in front of the TV. And it always gets covered, like covered in holly and candles and all that shit and at christmas this year for the first time ever my xbox started overheating and it'll just like shut a game down and be like it's the xbox is running too hot to play this game right now reboot it and cool it down and try again and then so i made her take all the all that shit off and then i stood it up because it had been laying down and it worked okay for a little while. But then it just started overheating in any game I play. Like I couldn't play more than two minutes on Power World and it would just turn my Xbox
Starting point is 00:27:50 off. So I just fucking went out and bought a new one. But now I'm going to buy some canned air and see if I can get some canned air. Yeah. And if you can't give it to Eric or Nick, because we were trying to we're slowly. I can do that. We're building. Let's play.
Starting point is 00:28:02 I mean, I probably should give it to Millie. But yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Well, I mean, he's slightly she's above you guys're built for the Let's Play. I mean, I probably should give it to Millie, but yeah. Oh, yeah. She's slightly, she's above you guys in the hand-me-down thing. Understandable. How often do you vacuum your room, Andrew?
Starting point is 00:28:14 Not, maybe like, I don't know, once a month, maybe. Oh, it's not as bad as I expected. Not a lot. Not a lot at all. Yeah. I was trying to come up with a number that sounded reasonable, but... Oh, so you're just making it up? Yeah, I just threw that number out there.
Starting point is 00:28:32 It's probably been five months, six months since the last time I did it. Well, that could be your problem. Yeah. Every time you set one footstep, you'd kick it up all the dust in the room, and it's getting sucked in by your Xbox. Yeah. It definitely felt like there was 20 years worth of dust in this Xbox.
Starting point is 00:28:53 And obviously with you stepping in Swiffer wet jet boxes, that's really going to kick up the most. It did. It launched. My foot went into the Xbox area, so it definitely kicked any additional dust into the vent thing but you should definitely try it jeff because it's a very holy system there's a lot of holes you could shove that compressed air yeah i'll do that and it just
Starting point is 00:29:16 flies if i can save this xbox it'd be awesome to give it to mill um or one of you guys if she doesn't want it but uh i I think I justified it to myself because it was like it was a free Xbox I got through work anyway so I have never actually bought a Series X so I figured I've got enough free use out of this Xbox I can afford to pay for one yeah but I would still
Starting point is 00:29:38 look at it but still like to recoup the other Xbox and have it working wherever you're going like to recoup the other Xbox and have it work again.

Please. What do you know about blimps? They're incredibly dangerous.
Starting point is 00:30:30 Yeah, they explode. They were supposed to be the future of travel, right? At one point. Do you know how many blimps there are? In the world? Yeah. We got the Goodyear blimp. I'm going to say three.
Starting point is 00:30:45 I'm going to say one. I think it's just the Goodyear blimp. I'm gonna say one. I think it's just the Goodyear blimp. I think it's just the Goodyear blimp. I say three. Oh, okay. Well, maybe my fact wouldn't be very mind-blowing to you. There's 25. Yeah, that's a lot. Even if it's a lot, I think that's such
Starting point is 00:31:04 a low amount. No, I i mean i picked three because i could tell where you were going with this but yeah it does seem like i mean they're not practical in any way right no i thought they were just above every like sporting event that's what i was 25 that's like why are we using them at football games if there's only 25 we should be using them very sparingly for whatever their intended purpose is. Football games. That means all blimps are limited edition. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I feel
Starting point is 00:31:32 like I've never seen a blimp, so it just didn't feel like a thing that was in circulation. I feel like blimping is a dead technology. Yeah. Oh, it definitely is. It's the GTI online, though. We used to fuck with blimps in GTA Online. I've shot that blimp down
Starting point is 00:31:47 more times than there are actually blimps. Well, you think about it, like, is there a blimp company? Yeah, that's a great answer. Apparently, one company owns all the main blimps, like the Goodyear and the DirecTV, and it's all one company how much does it cost to buy a blimp that's what i'm wondering or are you basically leasing the blimp
Starting point is 00:32:12 out from that company you got to make sure that you get your loan from the bank and not at the blimp dealership is the move because they'll they'll jack your interest dude you know what i'm thinking here the The Uniform Blimp? Yeah. Blimping is old technology, right? They had that shit. That's what the Hindenburg was. Like, that shit's been around
Starting point is 00:32:29 for a hundred years. Clearly not hard. You just need fabric and air. So what if we started a competing blimp company and then we just undercut their prices by 10%? Instantly, we're fucking...
Starting point is 00:32:41 We're blimp rich. What do you think will be cheaper? Doing that or just buying the shittiest blimp? the 25th most sought after blimp yeah but they but if they own it they own the means they're gonna fucking overcharge you how much how much can how much is it i don't know let me look up blimp for sale would you rather take one of those submarines down the titanic or ride in the shittiest blimp? I would ride the blimp if you know what comes to us. I dive out the window and parachute to safety. Oh, yeah, okay, okay? Sure, that's better. It's a better escape plan than being a mile below the surface of the ocean
Starting point is 00:33:17 I'm gonna do that, but I I've clearly in the hypothetical the the the question wasn't phrased in this scenario In which that you have a parachute and are able to jump out. It's just trapped vehicles. Oh, boy. I don't know if I trust them. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. So we can buy a blimp, and they're not that expensive.
Starting point is 00:33:38 They're smaller. We're talking about Airship Solutions, who sells the world's smallest blimps uh you can get the indoor outdoor model for seven thousand dollars it's the e13 blimp with the indoor and outdoor gondola fins with a choice color of 40 to choose from for both indoor and outdoor it's got a hole with three standard colors or a combination of three standard colors any pms can be matched for non-standard at a cost. ACDC, digital battery charger, hole repair kit. These are tiny little handheld blimps.
Starting point is 00:34:09 They're still as big as a person. You gotta start somewhere. You gotta be able to drive the blimp from the inside. You gotta start somewhere. The cheapest inner blimp. We roll up to fucking local sporting events. We start blimping around at halftime,
Starting point is 00:34:29 take all the money we have, put it into R&D, and we make a bigger blimp. And then we tackle bigger clients. And we keep working our way up until suddenly we've got the world's biggest blimp. We need a pair of binoculars on every seat for this blimp to look.
Starting point is 00:34:50 It's not that small. There's a picture of it at a fucking sporting event yeah but it's okay are these like the the ones that would drop stuff that's not that small yeah they're they're pretty small they drop like shirts and stuff as they fly around gotta be it's gotta be 10 feet long at least i don't know about that you gotta start somewhere that is just say imagine this but bigger on the side for us like what is what is how big like there it is right there next to two that's pretty big that's clearly bigger than those dudes what if on the side we just write help us buy a bigger blimp and then there's a QR code and people can- Exactly. Donate to the blimp fund.
Starting point is 00:35:28 The international blimp fund. Make this blimp bigger. So wait, hang on. So in order to get the blimp going, you said we need all these binoculars for people to see our tiny blimp, but you want to put a QR code on the side so everyone has to zoom in
Starting point is 00:35:42 all the way through binoculars. I just think that the initial steps there no no no no gonna be very tough i can tie this full circle you said uniform is all about innovation we sell binoculars that can scan qr codes there you go that's honestly that's a ces technology that i'm surprised isn't a thing already. Sounds like a... It solves your problem. Sounds like a knockoff Mr. Beast video where we leave an unclaimed Venmo wallet on a QR code,
Starting point is 00:36:13 but put it on a really high up balloon. First to scan it gets the money. There's also a great... Oh my God! What do you find? The Swarovski Optic Outdoor app Oh my god! What do you find? The Swarovski Optic Outdoor app allows you to transfer cell phone
Starting point is 00:36:29 and transfer data from your binoculars to your cell phone. The live view feature, turn the mode selection wheel, makes it possible to share the view with up to four other smartphones and use QR codes. It might already exist damn shit i thought i was being innovative
Starting point is 00:36:49 i mean there is a great there's a great it's always sunny style edit for this episode of jeff saying uniform isn't about just slapping their logo on things and then immediately cutting to face buys a blimp literally the only purpose of the blimp. The only thing you can do with a blimp. Yes, you slap your logo on it. Well, it sounds like we can drop t-shirts from it. Oh yeah, you can do that too. Have you never experienced that in a sporting event?
Starting point is 00:37:14 Like the little blimp that flies around and drops shit? Except our blimp will drop a bunch of toothpaste keys. Ooh, and bread clips. And wrist pockets. They spend all of their entertainment budget on the blimp, so it's just them dropping bread clips on people as the prizes.
Starting point is 00:37:35 Oh my god. 25 blimps, huh? Yeah, 25 sizable, drivable blimps is what I've read. But that also could be horseshit because it was on Wikipedia. I believe it. I got a whole podcast based off Wikipedia. Don't start talking shit about Wikipedia.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Okay. I thought I would tune into something over the last week, something that I've heard about a few times but never watched. It was Eric doing the wrestling commentary. Oh, it's's great isn't it i i went into it not not knowing how eric was going to approach it like is he going to be softly spoken and technical uh i tuned in that's that's an insane that's an insane way to think i would approach anything but thank you that is that's also gavin has never seen wrestling like what are you well i know that's always like a screaming guy, but I think I guess when I watched WWF
Starting point is 00:38:28 It was like two screaming guys, but I yeah, I just I'd never heard it So I was just I didn't really know what to expect I tuned in on twitch and Was met with some guy like pelvic thrusting another guy in the ass. Oh And then Eric go I just hear it go oh guy in the ass oh and then eric go i just hear eric go oh yeah you know it's a cast of characters and everyone has their different psychology and the way they approach their matches and so what gavin tuned into was the most animated i've ever seen you in my life it's uh you know it's a lot of fun it's great doing all of the uh pro wrestling stuff because all these some of these guys their goal is to be like you know like where i'm gonna get on tv and i want to do this as a career and then there are other people that are like weekend warriors about
Starting point is 00:39:20 it and the weekend warrior guys are the best ones yeah i feel like i saw some stuff that couldn't be on tv oh yeah yeah yeah yeah did you did you get taken to pound town did you see a pound town no he has not seen the mayor of pound town yet he's that's maybe my favorite guy he is what a funny comedy guy just to do just to get beat up he goes in and he tells people i'm gonna take you to pound town and then he just gets punched or thrown over the top rope it's perfect it's perfect every time it's great but gavin i can't like you tuned in and uh i got a text from you in the middle of it and i went oh that's crazy i was just a screenshot and i just wrote i feel like i'm watching a hate crime. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:07 Do you just do the commentary from home? No, no, no, no. You go there? Yeah, I go to the arena. We have like a little setup. The producer that put it together did a really great job. He has like an ATEM multicam setup and it's like a whole thing.
Starting point is 00:40:22 Yeah, it's fucking crazy. And it's like, it's on $0. So it's a lot of fun. And we do it like every Saturday. It's like a whole thing yeah it's fucking crazy and it's like it's on zero dollars so it's a lot of fun and uh we do it like every Saturday it's always a great time I really enjoy it thank you for tuning in it's great every time I've watched it official AAPW is where you can find us all over the place you want to do it
Starting point is 00:40:38 Gavin you want to get in there no do you want I'll film some slow-mo though yeah you want some slow-mo like maybe dan getting thrown around or somebody doing something yeah why not okay i have a i had a really weird thought pop into my head that i just remembered gavin last night that i wanted to ask you this is a very strange question but it was making me laugh this is i was having a great time have you ever filmed like an elderly
Starting point is 00:41:05 man sprinting at you naked in slow motion? No. Yeah, have you ever filmed that, dude? No. You know what? No, I haven't. Because I think it would be really funny. I think that'd be a really great slow-mo.
Starting point is 00:41:21 I just feel like, because the skin is kind of loose and you don't really see people of a certain age sprint anymore. I just feel like because the skin is kind of loose and you don't really see people of a certain age sprint anymore. I just think there's a lot of flopping that's going to happen and I think it would be
Starting point is 00:41:32 really funny. It's so simple, but I just, I'd love to see a naked old dude sprinting towards the camera at you from a distance.
Starting point is 00:41:40 A, who's going to want to be filmed that way? And B, where are we going to put that? A, nudists. B, great question. But we'll figure that out later. The biggest problem is getting the old guy,
Starting point is 00:41:54 but I don't think that's hard. That's not going to be hard at all, dude. Yeah, looking at a naked old guy, that's the easiest part. You can't tell me it doesn't crack you up just imagining all the, seeing it in slow motion all the the bops and the things bouncing
Starting point is 00:42:07 around. See I've been in this situation before though it's like the idea of it's funny and it's great and it's like oh I'm so excited to do that and then you're watching back the footage and you're just like No I don't think I think you would be laughing so hard as if they were into it if they got the spirit of
Starting point is 00:42:23 it I think that's hilarious. I think you should direct this piece. Yeah, I mean, it's easy. I think Jeff could even direct this piece. What the fuck is that mean? How did that happen? How did Jeff get... What happened? Jeff gets hit by the strayest balls
Starting point is 00:42:41 somehow. No! Jesus Christ! I gotta be the best director in this group. What the hell? No, this is what I meant by that. It feels to me like this would be a very jackass thing, and I think you completely understand the spirit of something
Starting point is 00:42:57 that is jackass-like. I think you'd be absolutely capable of it. Dumbest, shittiest motherfucker I know could be a problem. It was Gavin going, Andrew, I'm gonna make you watch this and andrew going yeah jeff should have to watch this yeah also gavin didn't you tell me once that you filmed for a commercial uh like sienna miller or some famous actress run or like a music video running naked and you said seeing anybody run naked in slow motion was one of the most disturbing things you'd ever seen uh it's not flattering the sienna miller thing was uh that was a different thing that was when i've never been booed so much in my entire
Starting point is 00:43:34 life but what we're filming some music video and she was in like a gown like hospital overalls and uh did like a little lunge over some gurneys or something but that was just like a a hell of a view up her up her gown and we're all watching it we're all watching it slow down and i was like oh this is gonna be it's gonna be pretty bad for her because all these just dudes on set so i skipped it ahead past that bit and everyone yelled at me you did the right thing it sounds me. You did the right thing. It sounds like you definitely did the right thing. Oh, of course I did the right thing, but it was a room full of 50 year old blokes who
Starting point is 00:44:12 almost saw Sienna Miller's growler, so they were really, really pissed off. And when was this? Oh, like 15 years ago, maybe. See now one of those guys can be our naked old man sprinting all I took away from that story when you told me 15 years ago was that even the hottest people on earth are ugly when they run and I was
Starting point is 00:44:34 like I just remember that now she was she looked great yeah but she wasn't naked she was wearing a gown I'm just saying I just think about it I'm not listen you do you control the slow-mo guys channel however you want but it's just something to consider if you say it's educational you can put it up on
Starting point is 00:44:50 YouTube with nudity that's true what so we should write some like algebra on his chest or something I was just thinking the flops as a snicker into myself just how floppy everything would be because they have to be kind of out of shape to a kind of out of shape too.
Starting point is 00:45:05 A kind of out of shape 70 year old man sprinting with intent right at the camera. Would you do it when you're 70? What? Like if you were 70 would you go for it? Oh hell yeah. Absolutely I would. Mark it down. Yeah okay. Sure I'll sign up for this.
Starting point is 00:45:22 We'll revisit this in 40 years or whatever. Yeah like 40 years yeah like 40 yeah 40 years put in your calendar Gavin 20 64 jeez and I don't I don't want to tip anything off here but you might want to be a first member for that one that's gonna be
Starting point is 00:45:38 on my pay get your subscription now park that subscription now. Park that subscription now because in 40 years you're going to want to be ready. We're bringing the content. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:45:55 It would be fun to set up a video like that that time releases in 40 years and it's like... That's... Kind of like how... Was it like Mark twain when he died had it wrote an autobiography but it said it couldn't be released until after 100 years after
Starting point is 00:46:10 he was dead or something uh i think i think something similar happened to jd salinger where he wrote like an additional three or four novels and then said that they could only be released after he died that'd be funny if we made a video and then just set the time release as far as possible out and just like 30 years from now it just clicks on that's what made me come up with that thought and you saying that made me remember it was because robert rodriguez made a alcohol short documentary with john malkovich that isn't supposed to come out until like 2070 something oh and really like it's just yeah it's slated and it's like essentially the idea being like everybody's gonna be dead by the time that that worked on this by the time it releases
Starting point is 00:46:49 and i just in my head i could see john malkovich doing some creepy weird shit that you don't like everyone's waiting for this film and then it just turned out to be john malkovich goateeing for 30 seconds laughing at you that people are waiting for out of this vault. John Malkovich admitting to multiple murders across the world. Yeah, it's like the jinx. He's just burping and admitting to killing people. We thought it was a truck driver. It was John
Starting point is 00:47:18 Malkovich the whole time. He's the smiley face killer. What was that with the burping? He just fucking, it was involuntary. Just like a fucking guilty tick i think now he's dead oh i have a clip oh what's your clip it's from episode 191 okay the ad reads oh fuck off fuck off eat myfully. You go do an ad read. I'm going to have to put my therapy hat back on. Yeah, you will.
Starting point is 00:47:49 A little spicy. Why don't you do the ads this week, Gavin? Ad, here we go. Great programs for, and it's really easy to pick up. The other thing that they do, which is so awesome, is they provide pronunciation checks. Double the words. Yeah. of all the words yeah that's how I came out aggressive
Starting point is 00:48:15 that was that was that was so fucking funny. Oh, fuck. I knew it was coming. Oh, man. Oh, dude.
Starting point is 00:48:36 Oh, God damn. Did you know you did that in the moment and then thought, ah, fuck it, nobody will notice? Or did you find out? It was a thing where I was, if I'm going to be completely completely honest I was in the midst of a payday heist while recording that ad read and I fumbled it I was trying to pick safety deposit boxes
Starting point is 00:48:55 and I fumbled it and I went wait wait was this during our payday heist no I was I played some payday by myself later. I thought we would have heard him if it was us. That's what I thought too. I was trying to think.
Starting point is 00:49:09 I'm like, was there any point where Andrew was muted for like a long time when we recorded payday? Maybe that's how he should do all of his... Andrew, you should do all your ad reads. Next one should be in the middle of the final circle of Warzone. Okay. How many... How many...
Starting point is 00:49:24 How many players is payday three four it's four players cool yeah yeah we we talked about it last time we had like a lot of fun when we played payday those videos will come out eventually we had a lot of fun and then we talked about you know if there's a world where you know we have our four but then maybe people get swapped in and out for uh i don't know about lowest performing member of the group or uh people that blow it uh so you're so what we're saying is there is a there's a a group of four for payday which i'm not in i understand i didn't make that recording so that's fine that's fair to me there's always different groups right uh that's how this kind of works but there's there's a group of's fair to me. There's always different groups, right? That's how this kind of works.
Starting point is 00:50:05 But there's a group of four for payday. However, there's a potential system in play where the lowest performing member gets relegated for a video and replaced. Just saying, just a potential. And Eric, what could be happening? Who do you think could have been chucked? Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:50:21 You know, honestly, I'm going to leave it to the videos to come out you guys let us know when the payday videos come out who leave a comment let us know who you think would be relegated uh of the group of four i'm very curious to see what the chat says i can't wait to find out i uh i think that could even work outside of because we're just sort of going through like we do a heist onto the next one i think it'd be a lot of fun for us to try to perfect every heist and maybe like while we're doing those runs factor in who fails the most and then whoever fails the most is cut from the crew for the next site because you wouldn't bring that guy back
Starting point is 00:50:58 if this was a real heist group and they have to do the ad read that's true and they have to do the ad read i will say payday 2 was a great game and we got a lot of really good content out of it for achievement hunter so i think it probably stands to reason that three would would warrant a few videos as well especially if you guys are having fun playing it oh it's so much fun i can't believe how much fun i had i cannot believe how much fun i had playing that game i feel like we have too much to play like i really really really want to play pal world i think there'd be a couple of videos i think trucks could be just based on the audience alone i think trucks could be endless videos it feels i think to be honest we're still well i feel like i am in the mindset
Starting point is 00:51:35 that's similar to the old style let's play where we would just record all the time and stuff would come out all the time it's taken me a lot it's taken me a lot to get used to the cadence of recording less often and putting less out. How do you mean? Because I think I agree with you. I guess I was just used to doing it every day and videos would come out every day. Yeah, you definitely get used to the pace and like when we were in that treadmill and it definitely feels weird to go like half speed again. If we want to add another let's play recording day to the calendar, I'm all for it. I'm not complaining
Starting point is 00:52:07 and I'm not advocating for that and I don't say I'm minded. I'm just saying that I agree with Gavin. It is weird to be doing it again and be doing it at such a slower pace, I guess would be the way
Starting point is 00:52:16 to put it, yeah. Not good or bad, it's just interesting. It definitely feels like there was like, I don't know, just a different vibe. A whole different world.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Yeah, because I feel like I go weeks where I feel like we should make a video and then we we just don't get around to it. There's just so much to play. Yeah, we before like Let's Play even really started, I had a an evening where I went, oh, fuck, like, what are we what are the video ideas going to be like? Do we have enough for a year? And I wrote out like 60 just video ideas and i don't think we've done more than five of what i wrote at that time i would never worry
Starting point is 00:52:50 about running out of video game ideas no i don't think that's gonna be an issue for us yeah maybe maybe running out of good ideas but definitely not ideas that happened long ago that's fine we've already dealt with that problem um yeah i think would be great as long as you guys are open to it because it's like for me so much of it is making sure it doesn't become a burden to do because right now it's so much fun as long as i don't have to invent and build a game in minecraft and then force four to six assholes who are constantly trying to undermine the point of the video and the competition
Starting point is 00:53:31 and run them through it. As long as I don't have to do that, I'm fine. I'll do any of it. Well, I'm so excited for what we've been doing in that field. And as soon as we finish like it's always like oh I want to do more which is the perfect feeling
Starting point is 00:53:48 it is the best feeling to end on I think we could increase slightly because I'm definitely not anywhere near the point where it's like oh man too much to film maybe one more day that is not like maybe a 45 minute type window to just do like one more video I think would be great
Starting point is 00:54:03 I agree because it's like i want to do because selfishly i want to do trucks constantly like right i'd like to do trucks every week and i think that the audience would like that based on what i'm reading uh but to do trucks every week really cuts down on what else we can do yeah it's weird so it's like it feels weird it's basically become the truck channel yeah i feel like there's not a lot of experimentation time either. Yeah. Like, I'd be excited to do the blowing people off parachutes with bomb drones. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:30 But that's not something we can quickly get in like 40 minutes. We'd need to actually be prepared to, you know, spend maybe like 90 to 2 hours trying to get it. But I don't know. It's tough with our current slot. It is, but well, it sounds like maybe we'll look at after this recording, figure something out for that.
Starting point is 00:54:47 Because that'd be awesome. Any excuse to spend more time playing games with everyone here, I'm all for. Let's figure it out. Can I tell you something really dumb if we're talking about pronunciations of issues? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Something I didn't share with you guys. And this has been something that happened a while ago. And I realized to understand the distance of time, it was probably like three or four weeks where I thought this, we had a, uh, for the merch meeting, uh,
Starting point is 00:55:22 near the end of the year in December, we had like end of year merch meeting where we evaluated like the sales of everything and how stuff is doing and all that stuff and looking at numbers and whatnot. And I completely misinterpreted what a specific word meant. And it completely shifted my perspective of how things were going for us. There is a section titled returns. And that is that section is items that have been returned
Starting point is 00:55:50 and the cost of returning those items. Whenever return was stated, I thought that was the profit return of whatever those items were. So literally, because the returns are always in the negative. And I thought for weeks, I was like, wait, we're negative in everything? Every single thing is negative? How is this happening?
Starting point is 00:56:12 How are the Gerplers negative? I felt really dumb. That is an exceptionally dumb way to look at it. It was. One of the all-time dumb moments for me is realizing when I was looking at the sheet later, oh, this is the product returns not not actual return and was it like you you didn't know you didn't know so it's not like you could you could have thought to ask i thought face was shutting down in the next week was my walk away that's like if, if this is, if everything,
Starting point is 00:56:45 if the things that are selling out immediately and have a lot of enthusiasm for we're losing money still on, this is over. And I'm very sad about this. I used to struggle a lot, especially at school, where I would freak out on the spot
Starting point is 00:57:00 if I didn't understand something and I would just not ask. And I would feel like too much time has passed and then I would have to try and figure out what the teacher meant. I remember I had to do a newspaper, it was like a magazine cover. I had to design that for media. And I had the picture there
Starting point is 00:57:16 and then I was showing the teacher at the end and she was like, yeah, that's great framing. Obviously it needs the copy. And I was like, oh yeah, yeah,. Obviously it needs the copy. And I was like, oh yeah, yeah, of course it needs the copy. And then I just walked away. I was like, what is she talking about? And I couldn't, I didn't know how to Google either. Cause it was like, well, I don't know if Google was about, but I couldn't, I couldn't even figure out how to search it online. Cause it would just bring up other mentions of copy. I couldn't figure out that
Starting point is 00:57:43 she meant the text, but I sat there, I probably wasted two whole lessons trying to figure out what she was talking about. I used to do that all the time. Now I just ask the question straight to your face. Yeah, that's the better way to be. For sure. This was fun. What's this picture doing? Oh,
Starting point is 00:57:59 that's nothing important. I just, Emily sent that to me. She was looking through the wedding photos, and it was just a photo of me, Eric, and Gavin at the wedding. That's a rare picture of Eric and his invisible wife. Well, yeah, my arms around her, and we're all laughing and having fun, but Jeff is concerned about her, so... I'm just, I'm like, what?
Starting point is 00:58:19 I'm glad it was clarified that it's the invisible wife. I thought it was Eric going like, and the rat was this big, and Gavin thinks that's great, and Jeff is like, rats really shouldn't's the invisible. I thought it was Eric going like, and the rat was this big. And Gavin thinks that's great. And Jeff is like, rats really shouldn't be that big. I don't know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:29 That's a size of a small blimp. Let's throw a logo on that rat. Do you think that's the closest your hand has been to my penis yet? Almost certainly not like passing by. You know what? I'll say yet. say yet yeah yeah we'll give it we'll see if we can get a little bit closer next time not me no definitely not i've been all over that thing i mean you've flicked my penis to the point where you've been closer to my penis than my penis was. Yes. Yes. That's true. Because you've, like, dislodged it.
Starting point is 00:59:07 Oh, my God. That's true. Oh, man. Hey, hey, you know what, though? It's fucking friendship, man. That's what we do. Oh, yeah. I'm here for your penis.
Starting point is 00:59:16 You're here for mine. Forever. Forever. Is this what we're wrapping up on? Dude, it's the bond of friendship. I feel like you've touched mine more, but I've seen yours more. You've definitely seen mine more.
Starting point is 00:59:30 This is such a weird way to go out on this one, guys. It's a pretty weird way to come in, to be honest. Oh, man. I'm so glad today went well. My notes for this fucking episode are uh do you ever mix cereal that was the only note i had wow we're getting guys this might be one of the last 10 episodes of this show oh no the returns were real the returns on this episode are going to be real. Brother.
Starting point is 01:00:09 No, I was going to ask because all I had was a little bit of Chex and a little bit of Fruity Pebbles. And I was like, I want fucking cereal. So I mixed it together and it was great. And I started thinking we should combine cereals more because this is an awesome, unexpected combination. Chex and Fruity Pebbles. I'll have to experiment with that. That was my insight today. unexpected combination, Chex and Fruity Pebbles. So I just... I'll have to experiment with that.
Starting point is 01:00:26 That was my insight today. If you could send an item back through time to you as a kid, what item would blow your dick off the most? Loaded gun. Whoa. Yeah, I mean, that might be it, huh?
Starting point is 01:00:47 Hot dog cannon. Too uh i was thinking about this the other day actually i was thinking about doing a soul ride on it uh sometimes when i drive around i was on my way to meet eric we were doing a special recording and sometimes when i'm driving around i like to pretend it's like the 1950s and i'm seeing everything around me for the first time and what would stand out to me, you know? That's like one step away from having one of those gummy Coke bottles and pretending you're a giant. Yeah, I guess so. I guess it is. Just drive around being like, what would stand out to somebody from the 1950s? Because a lot of the streets you drive by and you'd be like, I just see houses that look about the same, you know? But Lime Scooters got me. Like, how would I explain lime scooters to somebody from the fifties and be like, yeah, it's just
Starting point is 01:01:27 a, you rent it. And they're like, how do I, who do I rent it from? And you're like, nobody, you just point your phone at it. And they're like a fucking phone from my house. How does that make sense? And then you got to explain cell phones and then you got to explain computers and online transactions. And also this magic thing will turn on without being plugged in anywhere and just start to be
Starting point is 01:01:45 operational and i was thinking man that would be a really hard thing to wrap your head around so i guess i'm gonna say steps removed so many steps removed right so i'm gonna say it would blow my dick off to see a lime scooter i think just handing myself a nintendo switch would completely sever my yeah it's probably about it yeah I mean that would definitely be like this is where I wanted the world to go I can't believe we got there I for me and this is like
Starting point is 01:02:10 once again video game field and it doesn't seem amazing but I as a kid played like six hours of Kingdom Hearts never saved the system got turned off and I just never revisited it again
Starting point is 01:02:22 being able to show how like a modern Xbox works where I could turn the system back on and it's just exactly where I paused and that being the way for like every single player game I played would blow my mind dude quick resume oh my god yeah like quick resume is an idea of like I don't even have to go
Starting point is 01:02:37 through the menu it's literally where I paused it's crazy that would blow my mind I think conversely the internet is way more annoying now than it was when i first started using it the internet seemed to make a real turn it used to like show you exactly what you wanted and now the internet just shows you what it wants on every website yeah pretty much and i'm just so not interested. Do you remember voice masking, Jeff, on the original Xbox?
Starting point is 01:03:10 No, I don't. I mean, I mean, not specifically. No, it's so sad. I was talking to Gavin about it. He had no idea what I was talking about. I didn't. I realized my research of it. I remember it being in Halo 2. Like that was a feature for Xbox Live is that you could have a voice mask and you sounded like a muffled
Starting point is 01:03:25 Darth Vader like it sounded like shit but I guess certain original Xbox games had their own different unique voice masking options to them and that is something that went away that I would love to see come back you know what I missed that that video games had for a little while I think I would think it was the original Xbox when
Starting point is 01:03:41 I would play Burnout Paradise or not Burnout Paradise I'm sorry that'd be a three that's a xbox 360 game but uh the burnout two or whatever it was burnout revenge or whatever you could rip a cd burn up maybe it's take them you could rip a cd oh yeah cd to your xbox and then that or a couple and then you could go into burnout and you could play the radio station you could just put your music and so like i had this album i that i was listening to all the time from this band star market that i used to love and i would just listen to that while i played burnout and i remember thinking like this is i'm living in the future right now this is this is gonna change how i play video games for the rest of my life. And then I never played another video
Starting point is 01:04:25 game that had that again. I don't think ever after that. The 360, I was ripping discs for like audio discs and playing it as music, the background instead games I'd play. I do that all the time. I play like Gears of War. It was awesome. I think that the GTA 3 era of GTA games, you could do that on PC. you could just have a folder with your own radio station that was it playing PC games then I remember the Xbox music player for the original Xbox like that was supposed to be
Starting point is 01:04:52 cool where it's just the track listing and then a light that would like bounce to the music yeah like it was a different built out functionality for playing audio navigating simple menus would be like it's like you're playing bushido blade
Starting point is 01:05:11 well xbox had like a nuclear reactor thing to it too of like and you're just like i want to put subtitles on like i want to i'm just changing a basic setting we don't need to like explode the xbox to do this you sent me a video of of the guy testing out the voice filters and i've got to say i really rose-colored glasses what xbox live used to sound like i it might just kind of sounds like discord but you hear it now it's like oh it's like nicking the mask. Yeah. What's another, what's another thing that would blow your dick off?
Starting point is 01:05:53 What? No, end this. If this podcast kept going? Podcast. Podcasts would blow your dick off. Yeah. I found podcasts pretty young though. This is AM radio, but you can listen to
Starting point is 01:06:06 it whenever this is not what blows my dick off about podcasts is the first podcast I listened to was in like 2006 the lost show had a podcast and it was like Damon Lindelof and Brian whatever is the other guy um they would do a weekly podcast and that was my introduction to it and I just thought it's so wild that of all the things... I don't know who at ABC thought that was a good idea, but they were ahead of their time as far as what shows should be doing. I think my first one was the Ricky Gervais podcast.
Starting point is 01:06:36 And that was just their radio show adapted, right? Or did they actually do a podcast for them? No, they basically quit XFM and then started the podcast with uh with kp god damn i have no idea what the first podcast i ever listened to would have been do you think you made a podcast before you listened to one probably probably honestly yeah yeah i probably i mean i probably listened to some for reference but i probably was like this trash and then yeah i bet i didn't really get into podcasts until the pandemic as a as a like a fan you know i guess a little bit before the pandemic i really around emily emily got me into podcasts
Starting point is 01:07:12 she was that's like her main form of entertainment i'd say huh i still think it'd blow my dick off if i sent me an old me a podcast of me like a face podcast trying to understand what I was doing in the future who these people are and how that's distributed who's listening to it how I got to call why you're doing like a weird therapist bit at the beginning and how did I like holy shit I went to college and I became a therapist that's awesome
Starting point is 01:07:37 well my notes have why why are we doing this and Well, my notes have... Why? Why are we doing this? End this. Just end. This is the end.
Starting point is 01:07:48 This is the end of the podcast. Well, hold on, Eric. I'm taking care of it. I guess it's about time to listen to your notes, Gav. What do you have in there? I guess we'll find out next week. Oh, no. Oh.
Starting point is 01:08:01 Ooh. Ooh. Cliffhanger. The premise, not the movie. Just to clarify. Felt needed. Hey, guys. Major League fan Jack here with a look at next week's episode of F*** Face.
