Hello and welcome to another episode of the Regulation Podcast. My name is Jeff Ramsey. With me, as always, Andrew Panton, Gavin Free, Nick Schwartz, Eric Bedore. It's the Regulation crew and Egg, as you might also know us here.

Oh, my God. With episode eight of our podcast, the Regulation podcast. Hello. How's everyone doing? Fucking great. Y'all good? Yeah, man. Yeah, man.

Good. I'm glad. It didn't seem like y'all were great earlier. There's some gameplay. There's some. We recorded maybe a chain based video game today. I watched. I would say the vibes were not the best eric do you think it'd be worse to play that game again or to be chained together

in real life i'd rather be chained together in real life because then if we fall from those heights at least i just die and i don't have to do it again what it all right here's a video idea what if we all chain ourselves together and then we have to navigate like a a playground this is we're like becoming we can't this is like becoming mr beast like is that what we're doing is that who we know because it's not going to make any money you think mr beast is chaining himself to other people and then going to a playground no no i think he's paying people 150 000 to be chained together yeah but somehow it plants trees so it all washes out okay yeah yeah yeah it helps it helps people fix their glasses in a country you've never heard of exactly what about a regulation chocolate bar is like at the start of the

playground in the middle we got to go get it really bring it together maybe a regulation hamburger Gavin would you rather play that game again or be chained together in real life probably the real life thing because it actually sounds also like it would be fun no no it would not be y'all would kill each other

as someone who just got to observe that was it was I don't think I've ever seen Nick be so angry at people as someone who just got to observe. That was... It was... I don't think I've ever seen Nick be so angry at people. What? It was great. It was the first time...

It was the first appearance of angry Nick. Yeah, I really... In regulation, I think. No. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

One person in particular was getting under Nick's skin. I don't want to spoil it. Who was it? It wasn't me. It wasn't Gavin. I'm not going to say who it was. But it wasn't me

and it wasn't Gavin. Maybe we'll chuck that in one of our Patreon polls and people can vote for it against something else. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or should that be public?

I don't know. It seems like a pretty popular game right now, right? Like I see it all over TikTok. Dump it out on YouTube then? Yeah, dump them out. I suppose so.? I don't know. It seems like a pretty popular game right now, right? Like I see it all over TikTok. Dump it out on YouTube then? Yeah. Dump them out. I suppose so.

I just don't, I just don't know. Oh, dump them out? Well, I just don't know why jumping decisions were made at certain times. That's all. It's just, you know, that's all. That's all I'm saying. Yeah. Good question.

And Nick agrees. Yeah. Why'd you do it? Oh, well. it oh well uh what do you guys want to talk about today that's not uh just reminiscing over a video game we just played that nobody saw us play it i would like to ask eric if he's done any detective work on who his uh information leak is yeah i have And I don't have it yet. I still don't have an information leak on where my fear came from. We talked about it the other day while we were swimming in the pool. And I accused our friend Alyssa, who immediately went, I don't know anything about this. She didn't know anything about it.

I told you it wasn't her. No, right. And I didn't believe you. Right. I just don't I don't know who it would have been. I hope you figure it out soon, Eric, because it's becoming a prominent form of discussion in all swimmies these days.

Although I got to say, it did spawn a hell of an idea. Yeah. Andrew, are you aware of a five-way Venn diagram? No. So in a five-way Venn diagram, there are overlaps. And after talking with our friend Alyssa the other day,

we started talking about this conversation of who do you think the leak was and then going around in a circle and I said, I just don't know who knows what my fear is of like the blood pressure cuff and then i'm like well it's just like knowing you know just fear of

snakes whatever and then alissa was like yeah and then i guess if there was like a boa constrictor that would be like the worst of both worlds for you and thus was born the fear diagram oh we need to figure out what all of our overlapping fears would be to get to the middle which is the ultimate regulation fear that's really funny it's very tough to figure out the fear diagram so the boa constrictor would be the perfect blend between eric's fear of being squeezed and j' fear of snakes. And then we discussed also that Nick was potentially afraid of flying, and then Alyssa immediately screamed snakes on a plane.

So that would be the blend between Jeff and Nick. That's really funny. The thing we were lost on was, what's Andrew's fear? What is yours, Andrew? I mean, I talked about that, like, surgical scenes in movies get me. Yeah. funny the thing we were lost on was what's andrew's fear what is yours andrew i mean i just i talked about that like surgical scenes and movies get me yeah oh but that's like so specific i don't know

is it the blood or the not the cutting or i don't know i don't know what it is so maybe like a gall bladder surgery on a snake would would be a good plan but here's the thing with the five-way Venn diagram that we're looking at, is that not everyone overlaps AB. So if you look, if I'm at the top at B and Jeff is at the left side at A, I don't necessarily have a singular overlap with E who could potentially be Andrew.

We would have to figure out what the ABE is. The least overlaps would have to sit kind of opposite each other. Yeah, that's tough. But you still have to find the overlap between yourself, one other person, and the other person. There's a bunch of overlaps that exist there

and I think it starts getting muddy when you start tripling up on wet bread, blood pressure cuff and snake. I think we just have to, I don't think the fear diagram is something that you can 100% fill out in one sitting. I think we plug in as we go.

You know what I mean? Yeah. I also really like that there's an A, B, C, D, E overlap of all five people. Yes, yes. Which is surely just death. Like, is there going to be anything more specific than that? I'm not scared of dying.

But yours isn't death. Yours is wet bread. You don't die from wet bread. Well. I actually think dying is going to be okay. Are you looking forward to it? I'm not looking forward to it, but I'm not super scared of it. I've decided. Cool.

I think I don't know. I think I'll get to do something else after. I feel like it's the first thing I think about every morning. What? Death? Or just like being scared of it. Maybe for like 10 seconds right as I wake up. And then after 10 seconds, I'm like, well, let's have a day.

Gavin. Okay. Gavin, I think you might be more scared of that than bread, buddy. If it's the first thing you think of every day and you have to talk yourself off the ledge so that you can have a day. I'm not on any ledge. I just feel like it's the constant

reminder of how much time has passed. About six hours since you fell asleep. I just feel like it's the constant reminder of how much time has passed. Huh. About six hours since you fell asleep. I roll out of bed thinking Johnny Caviar. That's where my brain goes. I like, I've never, the fear of death is not a thing I've woken up with. Not worried about it? Nah, it feels like inevitability.

Yeah. Yeah, I guess there's no point thinking about it. Anyway, I'm excited for us to fill out our fear diagram as we unlock new fears and discover connections. Snakes on a Plane, I thought was very funny. Snakes on a Plane is very funny. I don't think I'm afraid of heights, but when I visited the capitol building in austin i definitely felt something looking down from high above but i don't know if that's

a little bit height specific yeah maybe high and looking down just like that's only like three floors up isn't it four floors that big floors though they're really big to look down from the top. Andrew, what's the highest you've been? Whoa. What a question. Probably like a hotel. Probably like 25 floors up. Something like that. Okay. So you've been like probably 25 floors up.

Probably, yeah. That doesn't bother me. Like looking at a window from there. Okay. What about a glass floor? Oh, I feel like a glass floor is is like i think i'd be okay with it i'd assume but there'd probably be some amount of queasiness walking onto it initially i feel like it's sort of maybe like when you jump off a high thing into like a lake you know where like that first jump kind of scary then after that it's it's fine i think that first step is probably pretty queasy and then once you're on the floor it's like whatever i'm just standing have you done a lot of cliff diving

i've jumped a few a little bit of cliff diving not from high cliffs but i've watched yourself i just don't wait now i don't know what your definition of cliff is, but I bet it's really different from what I'm picturing. Yeah, oh, it's definitely different. You're probably picturing some, like, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid level of cliff jump. You're just talking about, like, a riverbank. Well, what are you picturing with a riverbank?

Give us a height. From where you jump to where you hit the water. You're asking the Dinklage's guy to give you a height? I got no clue. Is it more than one Andrew? Oh, way more than one Andrew. Yeah, it's less than that.

It's less than whatever that is that you just shared. That's really tall. Yeah, that guy looks like he jumped off the highest place on Earth. Yeah, like you posted a cliff that we can't see the total height of. No, but that's how I picture Andrew Cliff diving.

Let me see if I can find this cliff. Oh, that'd be awesome. You keep calling it a cliff and there's just no shot like there's no chance it's a cliff like there's no chance it's a cliff I think it's probably the lowest technical cliff you can have

how low could a cliff be like just a rough what's the lowest cliff I think if you look at it it's undeniably a cliff but it's like it's not that undeniably a cliff, but it's like, it's not. That is the shortest cliff. Smallest cliff in the world. How small?

Oh, it's just stupid answers. Someone just said a curb is a cliff to ants. Okay, well. Well, that's a good point. That's what I mean by Andrew, though, is that that's what I think he's getting at. Did you have you? How are you? How's the search for your cliff coming? I think I found it. I think I got it.

Save image. Is that it? I haven't been there in a long time. Well, I don't know. How old were you when this happened? Probably like 2006, I'd say. My last cliff jump.

I don't know, because this definitely... They didn't have this bridge above this cliff last time I was there. He's never going to post it. I have to save the photo. Why drag the copy paste? Drag it, drop it.

How would I drag it and drop it? Drag it, drop it. Drag it, drop it. How would I drag it and drop it? Drag it. Drag it. Then drop it? Yeah. I right click copy and then right click paste and it just, it goes for me. You can do that too.

Really? I thought you had to save the image to like your folder. We're never gonna see this fucking cliff. He's never gonna send the cliff. Oh my god. I'm painting a beautiful picture of words I'll click and drag I'll click and drag I would love to be able to paint drag just using his words like based on oh is that it oh wait I

Click it and I dragged it nothing happened. What do you want click drag? And then I go in here this is gonna be one of those episodes where people are mad at andrew in the first 10 minutes wait no i clicked and dragged it just took me to a website it changed the website oh i got it it's in my it's in my folder i just have to go back okay god you ready. You ready for this cliff? I mean, this is not a podcast. Yeah, Gavin, you guys ready for this one? I think so. Okay, that's the cliff. Okay, this sucks.

Right there. Oh. That's a cliff, right? That water doesn't look deep enough to jump into. No, it doesn't. That's... Were you at least on the upper level? The bridge thing? No, that didn't exist last time I was there

the right side cliff right side cliff upper level where it kind of pokes out like a finger or a toe yeah yeah yeah yeah okay not really a lot there for scale but I assume the fence on the bridge is a human height probably yeah

but it's further away at least like maybe four feet tall it's it's probably like two shacks i'd say can you draw can you draw the size of a human on the tip of the bit you jump off oh sure yeah yeah that'd be awesome if you could do that but how big you were while While Andrew's doing that, I want to show you guys a picture of something that I did today. Not a big deal or anything, but I thought I'd share it with you guys

because it's been a long time. Is it going to be a tool of cliff? No. It's what I did today. You did it! No way! The footrest! No more footrest, huh?

I tried to set up the PS5. Wow. But you didn't you didn't manage it uh there's some sort of a problem where it says the uh controller's battery isn't charged enough to allow me to update the firmware to use it so i can't sign in and i was reading about it on reddit and it's like an issue so i'm trying some fixes but i ran out of time before the podcast started yeah i guess most people don't buy one and then leave it for two years. I realized, Gavin, as I was opening it up,

and I really opened it up, the clear stickers were on it that I had to pop open so I could actually get into it, and I realized I don't actually know there's a PS5 in here. If Gavin put, like, I don't know, a pile of turds in here or cucumbers or something, that would be the longest play of the joke ever.

And I was genuinely a little nervous opening it up. Like, what if, oh my God, what if he's about to get me? But that was just a PS5. It's just a PS5 that doesn't quite work. We had some homework this week, didn't we? We sure did. We did. We had some homework this week, didn't we? We sure did. We did. We had grocery items.

So here, let me, here's a photo. Yeah. I'd say of height, roughly. There you go. Nice little image for you there. That's you, is it? Yeah, that's me. That's me 2006.

Like a 10 foot drop 12 feet and now i found a photo of people jumping off of it even better even better top down so you see like it is a cliff but as i said i think it's probably technically the smallest cliff you could have i i agree with that. Yeah. I think what you've done is you've highlighted the Canadian art of ledge jumping. Is it Canadian art? Our great pride? I've never seen ledges like that in America. That's interesting. It's fun.

Is that close to where you live? Could you go there today if you wanted to? It'd probably be like a 90 minute drive, maybe a little less, maybe like 80 minutes to get there. It's not too far. So if we came up in the dead of summer, we could all go swimming there.

Oh, absolutely. Yeah. The last time I think I went there, I rode that because it's like a little bit of a river, sort of. I just rode down and I beat the shit out of my back because I just, I don't know i thought i was immune to damage i guess and uh haven't been since like your back was too long for the the bumps uh

like i just i absorbed too hard of blows i guess i was like i'm in the water this is fine i'm not gonna be this is great and then i got out of the water and my back was cut up and like bruised so oh it's been a while but the jump is good it's fine the jump is easy any idea what the uh the river crabbing situation's like over there i don't think there's a lot of crabs probably uh in in that scenario yeah yeah it's not a great crab. Two birds, you know, trying to, you know. No, I appreciate it. Yeah.

You could maybe hold the crab trap in your hands and ride down the river and see if you can scoop up anything on the lap. It'd be fun

to fly up and do an old-fashioned cliff and crab as they call it. Mm-hmm. Yeah. As they call it

in Canada. Yeah. Great Canadian practice it in Canada. Yeah. Great Canadian practice. Because the skip app saves you so much time by delivering stuff like your

favorite cool treats groceries and bevies you get to spend the summer doing what you really want like successfully cutting your jeans into jorts.

Yes. Shipping the kids off to summer camp. Yes. Or winning the annual Schellenberg family water balloon fight. Yes! Suck it, Aunt Susan. Yup, definitely the best summer ever.

Squeeze more summer out of summer with Skip. Did somebody say Skip? Bumble knows it's hard to start conversations. Hey. No, too basic. Hi there. Still no. Hey. No, too basic. Hi there. Still no. What about hello, handsome?

Who knew you could give yourself the ick? That's why Bumble is changing how you start conversations. You can now make the first move or not. With opening moves, you simply choose a question to be automatically sent to your matches. Then sit back and let your matches start the chat. Download Bumble and try it for yourself. But our homework. How do we want to do this?

Do we want to submit our stories? Well, I think the idea is that we would do our stories and then people would have to try and guess which three things we had to buy. Okay. Okay. Do you want me to go first? Sure. Andrew, do you want to go first? I'm'm gonna go first uh there's some pretty big clues for for mine i'd say if you know your stuff two out of three very obvious the the third one may be a little bit

harder figure out here's my story major snap melon proudly serving the dark side oven toasted Greg Hildebrand and Canada this suggests to destiny is applicable for refund So if you want to try to parse through that and guess what I got there's some clues right and guess what I got. There's some clues. Right. Some sort of toastable thing. Is one of them soda?

Can I guess that? Is one of them like a soda? One of them is a soda. Yeah. You're right about that. Is it caffeinated or is it a carbonated soda? It is a carbonated soda. Are there non-carbonated sodas

uh i don't know i just want to make sure like a lot of people say soda it could be a lot of things i just want i'm just okay fair major melon Mountain Dew the the major snap melon thing led me to soda and I started looking I started poking around and googling like what is what's a melon soda what's something that's going around is it is it this major melon Mountain Dew it is yeah it is the major melon Mountain Dew yeah yeah, it is the Major Melon Mountain Dew. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So there you go. You got one.

That's how I landed on that. All right, Gavin, you guess what the Greg Hildebrandt thing is. Go ahead. But you Googled. Okay. So I can just Google Greg. Oh, are we not supposed to? I mean, I was getting soda with Major Snap Melon and then went, what the fuck is that thing?

Yeah, are we not supposed to Google? No. Was that a rule I wasn't aware of? I'm sorry. Listen, there were no rules, I don't think. Oh, okay. I don't think. Andrew, I'm with you.

I didn't think so either. That's why I Googled, like, what the fuck was that soda flavor? Huh. I won't Google any of them going forward, guys. Maybe some sort of toaster strudel. Oh, you're thinking a toaster strudel. Interesting. I think this company may be in that world,

but it's not a toaster strudel that I have. Is it the Light and Dark Side Oreos? Yes. Eric's got two. Good lord. Greg Hildebrand. Didn't need to google that one apparently greg hildebrand is like a famous poster artist or something the dark side part

tipped me off i had to think about what was in stores now and it's those oreos it is you're like a food detective yeah i have 100 eat a podcast where we try every new fast food creation to let you know. I don't care about that. You guys are one away and I will say it is the toughest I feel like. It has the least amount of words pulled. Is it Destiny?

No, Destiny was part of Oreos. Was it Oreos? Major oven toasted. Major oven toasted. Oven toasted. It's in the cereal aisle, I'll say. Help narrow it down a little bit. Pop-Tarts.

No. I've never had a Pop-Tart. What? Oh, my God. Really? Not a Pop-Tart guy? Not a Pop-Tart guy. I ate a Pop-Tart before we came here to record that sounds delicious I'm sure they're good they're

fucking great dude uh it's like I was like a toasted strudel thing maybe no that's what Gavin said already I already know did you do that did you really actually hey hey I have a guess I think I know what it is oh is it is it a toaster strudel of some kind no all right no it's not eric rice krispies was my third thing snap crackle pop crackle pop yeah and uh the oven toasted uh rice krispy treat or something. It says oven toasted rice grain cereal on the front of it. So that is mine. What about y'all? What is your story?

I could paste mine in. I'd love to see yours. With precaution, Charlie bounced on the ancient boulder above the volcanic mines, aware of the health hazards. Below is bursting with radiation and is not a well-ventilated environment charlie is a professional with the benefits of safety documents ash eruptions prevent

charlie's fat grip the power of nature temperature causes charlie's eyes and hands to be boiled and damaged by sharp objects life cannot be reused that's fucking awesome that's real good fantastic story gavin uh oh uh it was really hard not to have words like his or like yes yeah it is really hard i didn't have a the and it really made things difficult for me um is it some sort of a face mask or something? It's not. One of them has to be soap of some kind. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is it a cleaning product?

No cleaning product. Old Spice. Is it like cat litter? Are we going like cat litter? Oh. Where is radiation coming from, though? Quinoa. Bursting with radiation.

Is it quinoa? Is it? Hang on, I gotta guess. Is it toaster strudel of some kind? Sadly not. Is there any, like, radiation flavor? You don't see radiation used in products. I think Gavin went to a grocery store,

and I don't think his stuff is necessarily food. I agree. I think he has stuff here that is makeup-based or soap-based. Bug bomb. Bug bomb, definitely. He said there's no cleaning products,

and soap is a cleaning product, so it can't be. Hmm. Do you think this has anything to do with his yard could it be yard stuff because he's been a lawn guy recently interesting oh so is one of them raid like a can of raid no there is one food one non-food thing though the other two are two are food. One kind of. Oh, wow. Really? Oh, my God. Actually, they don't really food. What? Oh. You put them in.

Is one toothpaste? No. You put it in what? Damn. What about batteries? In your mouth? Oh, gum? No.

All right. Should I just post a picture of all three of them? Yeah. Yeah. What the fuck? What's up with Charlie's fat grip? We had tea bags, some salt, and some night trial gloves. Great one.

Wow. Oh, salt. That's fantastic. Good work, Gavin. And I think in that picture you can see most of the words. I did turn it around for a few, I think, but most of the words were not. Fantastic. And there's all of our bubbly from our soda summer.

That's true. Half of soda summer still. Yeah. And then soda summer still. Yeah. And then also YouTube stuff. Oh, yeah. That's a letter from the other thing. What's the business card? Oh, yeah.

It's an iMac. Yeah. Well, maybe I'll crop that. Yeah. I think maybe that might be the right way to do that. Yeah. Yeah. Because Jeff is just going to post this picture.

I won't remember that in a week when I'm hanging out out of town on vacation. You should delete that now. Yeah, just get rid of it right now. I'll come for you. Okay, okay, okay, okay. And finally, Jeff, go ahead. Okay, I'm going to post it

and then I'll read it out loud to you, okay? All right. Norm smelled dead. Raw, deep, ruthless. It permeated the farm. Not natural. Los Angeles, New York It permeated the farm. Not natural. Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, New Hampshire. Every place.

Bittersweet, alchemical, acid, bacon. Notes of a not natural nectar. Murder. The family chain, saturated with lime and lecithin. Smoked and roasted, a thumb through the eyes indicating a sacred, twisted ritual. Help. Love. Die.

Notes pressed into the mouth with dark alderwood. Trademarks of the twisted convict. Help. Love. Die. Notes pressed into the mouth with dark alderwood. Trademarks of the twisted convict. Norm mouthed to Tony. Vos just traveled here with the woman. Your woman. Are we in the magazine aisle

or book aisle with this? No, it's all food. Okay. All food? Murder food? Murder food? Well, it's all food. Yeah, it's all stuff that goes in your mouth.

Oh, like you could murder a salad. Maybe? Is this a Pepperidge Farm product? No Pepperidge Farm. Meatless chicken. It is a story about two cops who are chasing a serial killer who has abducted one of their wives. It's rough.

They're chasing him across the country. They got there just too late. Yeah, it's going to be like a vegan thing, right? To prevent murder of meat. Is it... Is Dave's Killer Bread one of the things?

No, there's no bread. Is it some impossible meat? No, no, it's nothing like that. There's actually no meat. I'll tell you, there's no meat. Well, I would say impossible meat. It is definitely... I mean, I don't think you're going to get

specifically two of the things, but one of them you guys know very well. What? Murder. I mean, it's the... When I... I'll tell you my thought process. When we had this idea,

we came up and we said, we're going to do a short story. I thought, I want to do the most unexpected short story possible. I want to do a murder mystery or like a horror thing because nobody expects that from the grocery store what's the one product i know of that has the word murder or kill or death in it and i started there liquid death what liquid death yeah liquid death was the first thing i grabbed murder your thirst yada yada yada

uh they had a lot of good stuff. Oh, that's fucking smart. And I just don't think you guys would get the other two because there's not a lot there. So I'm just going to post the photo. Okay. It's Tony's Chocolate, Chocolonely Bar, and then Bo's Bacon Dark.

Oh, those are good. Wow. Wow. I haven't seen two of these. I see the Tony's stuff everywhere. I'd never seen that other one before. Tony's are good. Wow. Wow. I haven't seen two of these. I see the Tony's stuff everywhere. I'd never seen that other one before. Tony's is good. Dark bacon.

Tony's is like. Way to go. Fair trade-ish kind of. Yeah. And on the back, it says stuff like ritualistic and alchemical. And I'm sorry I got those words. I see. Ah, clever.

I think. We've just come up with the best way to do a grocery list no one would be able to crack it it's great to read it's a fun little story i think we've innovated here i do too and i think we all wrote some really good content great stories everybody yeah way to go guys this was fucking great when bought your items, Gavin, did you put a word in for your signature? Did you start that? No, I shopped at a place that doesn't have it. Okay.

Doesn't have the signature. We're still gonna, that's gonna be a thing that will come. You haven't started your narrative yet. No, not yet. I'm excited. I'm excited for that. I just think it'll be,

I wanna know how long it takes you. Speaking of buying stuff, I don't know what led me down this hole. I think I was looking, I'm watching Breaking Bad, so I was looking at Breaking Bad stuff online, and I found that on Amazon you can buy this. It's like a latex Bryan Cranston mask. Whoa. But it's so cheap. It was like 20 bucks. And I thought,

there's no way it actually looks that good, right? And then I read one of the reviews. 2.2 stars. Terrible. This looks nothing like the picture. This is a dollar store mask, as you see in my picture. If you zoom in on that picture, it's absolutely nothing like the picture. This is a dollar store mask, as you see in my picture. You zoom in on that picture.

It's absolutely not the top picture. How did they get away with that? How did they get away with that? That's a great question. I think nobody cares who's going to stop them. The thing is, I can kind of see it I think if you were to ask me who that character is

I think I would say Walt would you really? I think so because it kind of looks like him I don't think the nose looks anything like him the goatee to me and the baldness is really what jump out to me about, but maybe I'm saying that with the advantage of context.

That image right there looks like 60% of the UFC fighters. Andrew, do you think that would fit on your head? No, absolutely not. I think I would rip that sheet mask in half while putting it on. I think it would be real disturbed.

I think we should try it, though. Yeah, listen. If you send me a link, I'll buy it. I'll throw it on. I'll 3D scan that as well. Get some additional depth. Yeah, I'm so excited to scan your head. Okay.

Yeah, I guess we haven't talked about that. We need to talk about this because we have this situation that seems like it's going to get resolved where you're going to get a new phone so we can do away with the umidigi bison but you're saying that you aren't going to use the new phone you're gonna use the umidigi well listen the umidigi is a great phone. The Bison, the, what am I, X2? The Bison X, designed by UmiDigi. Great logo, great phone. I don't think it has the capability to use whatever app Gavin needs me to use

because he's going to 3D print my head or attempt to. And I guess I need to scan it somehow. How does that work, Gavin? What app am I downloading? Well, I don't know. I'm pretty sure there's apps Gavin? What app am I downloading? Well, I don't know. I'm pretty sure there's apps where you just have someone walk around your head. I don't know. I've never used it.

I don't know. You said it so confidently when this was initially brought up. You really did. You said it like you use this app all the time that you do it. You're all good to go. You have no clue. This is a fictional app. No, I was just suggesting how we could do it. you're all good to go. You have no clue. This is a fictional app.

No, I was just suggesting how we could do it. You're at the stage where you're sending him a phone to use an app that you've never seen yourself. I'm sending him the phone like months before this idea. I'm just sending him a phone.

Teleportation. Like, it's ridiculous. You're just like, yeah, we'll teleport it. But if you know it's possible, you know just like, yeah, we'll teleport it. But if you know it's possible, and you know there are apps, then we can do it. There you go.

Okay. It's fair. Like, I've never used augmented reality to put an IKEA chair in my living room, but I know you can do it. Can you stack chairs? What if you stack 10 augmented shares and put a hot dog on top?

Will it go faster? Why is there a hot dog on top? The tables. I was making reference to when you guys were doing the table stacking. Was that a hot dog thing? Wasn't it? No. Am I making that up?

I thought the whole point was there was a hot dog on the top of it and it would launch. That's my, what are you talking about? You thought the whole point was, huh? No,

we were going to shoot hot dogs over the ceiling with like a, and try to catch it in our mouths over the roof of rooster teeth with a gun or something that Gavin had. Yeah. I don't think we're going to use a table for that. That was a totally different thing. No, I remember the hot dog thing. I just remember as part of the

table conversation, I could have swore it was at some point discussed of like if the hot dog was on top of the table, would it launch faster or something? I don't have confidence to tell you that you're wrong. I think that maybe there might be something to that i just can't remember yeah well i i also am not confident saying i'm

right we need the audience to come in and help on that one which uh speaking of audience helping just to pivot for a minute i did an impromptu stream of the elden ring final dlc boss last night because i was gonna to do it anyway. I had these runes. I had like 20 of them. And every time you use one, it boosts your health. And so I thought, oh, I'll give like 20 goes to see if I can beat this boss.

I learned I've been playing Elden Ring wrong this entire time. Oh, Christ. It was fantastic to have a whole chat of people explain to me what I should be doing and how much easier my life was from that point but it was the final boss

it was the final boss I'd beaten every boss outside of one that I wasn't aware of so it did that really quickly upon beating it but it was stuff like you should drink this flask that you have that gives you bonuses and I was like well i have no idea what that is do i just i i thought i just drank it and then i used it but i guess you need

to sit down and like put your items into it and so they're explaining to me i had like 40 different modifiers you can apply to this thing that i just have never used the whole game and I've been using a katana as my sword I've just been one handing it and they're like why are you one handing it why don't you use both hands on the thing and I had to ask like what do you mean by that how does that work I guess you do like 20% more damage

if you use two hands and I just have never done that because I didn't know that was like a thing you were supposed to do and then there's like a quick tab off of that it was a lot of me just going what am I doing how do I do this and then I beat it within like 30 minutes

after uh after doing it how many hours into this game would you say you are I think when I pause my it's like 200 hours or something. I'm like level 201. I've played a lot of Elden Ring. You can never make fun of me for beating Crackdown and not knowing about Autolock again.

Yeah. I mean, I've never played Elden Ring. Where do you learn the stuff you missed? I don't know, because I missed it. That's a great question, actually, because they're not great about explaining shit to you in Elden Ring. You need to ask somebody else. But I missed a lot. And it that's a great question actually because they're not great about you need to ask somebody else but i missed a lot and it was such a great experience to have people that actually know how that game works so you're thankful for the audience for coming in so thankful basically cutting the length of the stream down by like 70 so much yeah it was great

they were so helpful. So did your character basically go from just like a normal dude to a god in 30 minutes just because you respect your equipment? It certainly felt like it. Like I was doing way more damage. I recorded all of it. It'll probably be up at some point as a VOD. I assume. Did it get did it get so much easier after all that?

Oh, it was so it was noticeably so much easier yeah that's awesome and then i guess i learned that if you summon ai to help you in the fight it makes the boss tougher to kill and so the run the run that i ended up beating him on was one where i just forgot to summon the guy and uh i think that was the difference because I'd go in, I'd summon an AI and then I'd spawn an AI. I forgot half of the team and then I got it, which was great. A lot of fun. It was a great stream.

Speaking of Elden Ring, Andrew, this is a question I asked Gavin and Eric the other day, but what video game do you think you're the best at out of all the video games you've ever played? Oh. Maybe Left 4 Dead 2? Okay. Possibly. Okay. Nick, how about you? think you're the best out of all the video games you've ever played oh you too left for dead too okay possibly okay nick how about you oh god uh god of war ragnarok okay god of war ragnarok really yeah wow uh recent game what is also like tough measure. It's a single player only. Yeah, it doesn't help as much

because it was kind of a multiplayer focused question, but it's okay. I'm going to roll with it, Nick. We can roll with it. You can still be good at a single player game. Nick's just like... Maybe he's a speedrunner or something. Yeah.

Just killing like the Queen Valkyrie. Just like, I rule. I'm the best. Yeah. Halo 3. I stopped the fight guys i did it oh so let's say through a series of uh unfortunate and cosmic events uh every single person on earth who plays god of war ragnarok oh no and left for dead 2 except for y'all dies they're just gone

they're wiped out. The world keeps moving. It's not dangerous to play those games anymore. It just happens to be that they're all dead and you are now the only two people in the world that are playing those two games. How long do you think you're the best player in the world at that game going forward?

Until, like, four other people decide to play it. Probably. Yeah, my answer was by the end of the week. You could be the best player in the world for a week and then just through the natural course of people stumbling into the game and finding it and then not even trying to be better than you, but they just pick up

and then they just naturally progress to a point where they're better than you. It can't take long, right? No. Oh, totally. I think I could help. I actually, I said Peggle 2 and I told Eric and Gavin, I think I could help i i actually i i said peggle too and i told eric and gavin i think i could be the best peggle two player in the world for two weeks but i probably that's probably that's probably generous i feel like you can hold peggle for a while like i think peggle is a kind of niche game i'm sure the top end of peggle is insane but just on a general scale i think you'd hold that yeah but i bet there's some like

62 year old like math teacher retiree out there who picks up peggle who's only ever played candy crush and is like oh this is interesting and then like three weeks later is fuck is a god in pet you know what i mean yeah i feel like that game applies like it it finds those people and they become like in like my daughter has this fucking water sort game that she plays on her phone that's so stupid uh but it's just like it's just like a comms or you know it's just like her idol thing and she's like level 17 000 and i thought oh i'm gonna catch up to her and beat her and i sat down and tried to do it and i've got i got to like level i played every day for like i don't know a month and i got to like level 400 oh god and i think she might be the number one player in the world that game and has no idea um because i don't know like she must have

invested a thousand hours into it easily i just feel like there's a lot of people out there that find games like peggle that just fucking that would never even know there's a peggle community you know like a pegggle tournament feels like a backdrop to a Christopher Guest movie. Like the personalities I imagine that would be like a lead at Peggle. Yeah, it's the same people that participate in puzzle competitions, which by the way,

I just got into on TikTok and I am intrigued by. Like jigsaw puzzle? Yeah, like you get together with teams and do like a 500 person puzzle, like you and one other person or by yourself. And it it's timed what kind of advanced tactics do they have uh everybody seems to have their own their own methods um i have most of the tournaments i've watched you don't get to see any one person long enough to kind of figure out what their secrets are but i think i could do it i think i could do it i think i could enter a puzzle tournament and and do well uh the problem with that is i don't how many people are casually

entering a puzzle tournament i feel like it might just be you everybody else i think is like they've invested countless hours oh no i'm saying i think i'm at a point in my life right now where i could compete against those people in puzzles i don't know how we got off on the puzzle thing. I was just talking about the video game deal. But now that you mention it, I think my puzzle skills are of a level that I could walk in and compete at a semi-professional level right now.

This is your and Andrew's version of the Halo 2 times where Andrew's going to try and have to beat your times on puzzles. I do. Well, I'm thinking about it it isn't it just kind of luck to certain extent like how do they does it start pieces in the box and you have

to take out the pieces and then organize it starts with the pieces in the bag in the box you rip it open okay are you saying that puzzles are so like puzzle competitions are Rng based like like you you might you might open it and then go like oh fuck this is bad like this isn't gonna work for me i just might as well like oh it's no it's no outside pieces in this one oh

that's a run killer now is it is it typically, Jeff, like a normal puzzle, or is it the puzzles where it's like all one color? No, it's a normal puzzle. It's like a 500-piece Ravensburg puzzle or whatever that I've seen. I don't like those puzzles myself. I think they're kind of cheap. I use a different brand. I'm a pomegranate guy, personally.

But yeah, I think they use Ravensburg. What's a pomegranate puzzle? Oh, they think he's just like Ravensburg what's a pomegranate puzzle? oh they make the best puzzles dude hold on a second I like the what's jig puzzles is that what they're called? what's a jig I think where the front of the box is what the design

you're making is looking at so it doesn't specifically help you it's like you're creating like you're making a puzzle at, so it doesn't specifically help you. It's like you're creating... Like you're making a puzzle of a tiger, but on the front of the box, it's like a gazelle? Yeah, and you're building the perspective. What? It's called like a what's-a-jig?

Yeah, I've done those before. Those are good. Those are cool. Do you remember seeing ads for Puzz3D? No. What's Puzz3D? They were like three-dimensional, like you build the whole thing.

But I was always way too poor to have one. But I wonder if they were good or not. Somebody gave me one recently and I haven't done it yet. I have the Eiffel Tower. Oh, you have one? Yeah. Somewhere in my garage.

I think we could test to see if you're ready to compete with the real people by having like a real-time contest put on the TV behind you and you're're ready to compete with the real people by having like a real-time contest put on the TV behind you, and you're also trying to compete with your own version of the same puzzle. Yeah, maybe we could stream it somehow or something.

Maybe that's not exciting. Do you feel like we should put a puzzle in there? I would love to see a live stream of you trying to show off how fast you can solve a puzzle. That could go so wrong. The idea of the most energetic intro. That's like, all right, let's get to it. Wow, I mean, you guys would be there.

You guys would be there commentating. We'd all be talking. Oh, that wouldn't be too distracting? No, not for me. Yeah, he's good at these. Yeah, man. I can multitask. Hell yeah.

Okay, so this is a W jig what it's was was was yeah those guys those are i've done about four of those they're great dude but i don't understand like what am i looking at that's different on the okay here let me let me give you an example so i see the box i just posted uh-huh yeah the farmer on the bridge that's what the image makes that you make out of the puzzle it's what he's seeing so you're seeing the perspective of whatever the farmer is seeing and then when you build the puzzle you're seeing what the farmer is seeing so you'll see what everyone is scared of yes whatever they're reacting to is what you're actually building so like the front of the box doesn't give you any hints essentially to what it is.

So unlike the other one that was posted. I guess. Yeah. That one looks sort of identical. It's not actually. The one at the top isn't identical.

It's like a before and after. So what you see in the picture is before in that room and then the puzzle you put together is the after the thing happens. So it's in the same room. And then the puzzle you put together is the actor. The thing happens. So it's in the same room. It's the same perspective.

It's just all the people move around. So let me look at pomegranate. Dude, look at that top one. It has destiny in it. That could be one of the things Andrew bought. And it's a falcon. Oh, these are just like fancy. These are, yeah, like artistic puzzles. So are these just like fancy these are yeah like artistic

puzzles so are these just like more difficult like they're cool puzzles or like what's well they're difficult these ones are difficult because you don't have a reference right like you can't you don't know what you're putting together like you can see the edges from the picture on the front of the puzzle you get a sense of the before

so you know like the building is on the right and the car there's probably a car somewhere but then when you put the puzzle together it's the after and so it's you can use the the cover picture as a reference but you don't actually know what you're putting together does that make any sense at all yeah yeah okay i get what you're saying i didn't realize we were coming into a puzzle era i didn't either i like it but i'm fucking my dick is hard for it don't get me like do you know this is my thing i had a puzzle nook at the't either. I like it. But I'm fucking, my dick is hard for it. Don't get me started. Do you know this is my thing? I had a puzzle nook at the old house. Is it like a 500

piece standard? Like what is the average puzzle tournament size? So here's the problem. I'm a thousand piece man myself. Thousand piece and above. I don't see the point in a 500 piece puzzle. That's like fucking, that's baby stuff. Like half a puzzle. All the, yeah, it's like a half a puzzle. It's so much fucking simpler than a thousand piece. It's like half a puzzle. Yeah, it's like a half a puzzle. It's so much fucking simpler than a thousand piece.

It's not just a function of it being half the size. It's just like it becomes like twice as easy as well or three times as easy. But they do the 500s, I think, because you can do it in an hour or two. Should we do a 500 and then maybe reveal to each other on the show how fast it took us to do?

We do a puzzle reveal off maybe like we submit we give Eric our times and he can read off and see who does best to worst I love that I think that's really cool do you think that it should all be like the same puzzle yes it has to be

it has to be the same puzzle yeah and then we'll each time it. I'm making a note of it, and I'll see if we can put it together this week, get everything shipped over the next week. I love it. And then you guys have time and can do it. I haven't done a puzzle in a while.

I'm happy to pick, or if it's not fair to pick, at least vet the puzzle option. I think it's fine if you pick. I have no problem with you picking, because it's not like you're selecting it, and we can show the guys and be like, this is the one. I think that'll work.

We're going pomegranate right now, let me tell you. You guys are never going to want to put together another puzzle again as long as you live when you put that in your face. Yeah, I definitely agree with never wanting to put together another puzzle as long as I live. I agree with you on that. Is it the same bucket as board games for you?

It has to be. That's why I said we submitted to Eric. I immediately gave a rule that wasn't. Hey, I love you. Thank you, Andrew. I don't want to put together a puzzle. Certainly not. I would like to expand this to you know those like safe room

type puzzles that you can get? Like the handheld, like you have to get the hoop through the knot type thing. You know what I'm talking about? What? What are these called it's a puzzle in an escape room the fuck no you're doing like a word puzzle right now what yeah I'm doing the strand the New York Times strand right now it's like a puzzle where you have to figure out how to open like a box

or like there is a hoop like a wooden hoop and you have to get it through the ropes oh Jeff found the puzzle already he's got bears two bears at golden hour isn't that beautiful that is nice I like standing up like humans that's a brother bear type stuff

I'll listen to Phil Collins we'll get into it I'm gonna speed run this thing so that's dude this is good too because if we do this one bear type stuff. I'll listen to Phil Collins. I'll get into it. I'm going to speed run this thing. Dude, this is good too because if we do this one, the golden hour with the bears on it or whatever, and we get them first, then people at home can also get this same puzzle and there will be a run on this insane

fucking bear puzzle like a Don Zimmer card. It's going to be a Cosmic Crisp thing all over again. Suddenly we're going to be friends with the pomegranate people. I love it. Trying to figure out what these things are called.

I'm surprised none of you have you seen the glass onion? Yes. You know that box thing that he sends everybody to invite them to the island?

One of those. They make smaller versions of those. I think it would be fun for us all to try to take one of those on and just see how long it takes. And I feel like we'd all be really bad at it. What is it, like a puzzle box? Yeah, it's like a...

But there's a hoop. There can't be hoops. And you have to sometimes get the knot out of the hoop. I like me explaining all this and going, sometimes. The knot. There's a hoop? Sometimes there's a knot. Okay.

I'm going to Google puzzle knot. Get the hoop through. And see. See what pops up. Oh, I feel like it. I feel I feel like it I feel like Google knows I feel like Google's getting oh yeah here we go god I feel like

I want to put this fucking puzzle together so bad I'm just fucking staring at it right now I'm just getting are you just looking at the bear one still yeah the two fucking bears at Magic Hour? God.

I mean, we can get that. We'll order it after we record these episodes. I'm totally fine with that. See, you get... It's like you have a ring... Like one of those freaking things from a Christmas cracker. Sure. I mean, that's a nice Christmas cracker prize

if that's what you're pulling. Well, imagine that, but like cheap chromed plastic. I feel like Christmas cracker prizes are mini decks of cards yeah a little small picture frame yeah a small stapler tiny square getting these that yeah that's in the rotation for sure i'm gonna look into the puzzle puzzle thing do you think we should do a staff photo for our new company? Yes. Yes. But I think I should be,

you should 3d print. My head is my display of the company. All right. I'm back in. I think, I think we should all take it like it's a what jig puzzle. And we're looking at Andrew. It's us looking at Andrew holding a camera. We're all surprised by what's Gavin seeing.

And then you have to put it together. I was thinking it should be in the style of this photo Pete Rose pretty cool and Tony Prez taking a shit are they just shitting at work is that what that is are they at work there in the changing rooms you're yes like you're like at work like that

probably at the baseball stadium yeah i think so i think we could fight we could just get five stalls yeah yeah i don't want to i don't want that to be a what's chick that image i don't know what they're looking at yeah i don't need to see that i don't know why are they happy? It would be funny if we had four stalls and then the porta potty. That's amazing. And we have to strategically cover up all of our testicles and penis and stuff. Our bits, yeah.

Cool, thanks for saying that, man. Really appreciate it. It's great. So you don't want us to show all our junk. Okay, got it. It would be cool to make a puzzle if we made like a piece of content and if you completed the puzzle,

it had like a code that you could scan on it that took you to some piece of content somewhere online. It's like that $2 million puzzle thing I did. What was that? You put the puzzle together and it creates a QR code that you scan, which then tells you if you won $2 million, I won $1.

That's like a mischief thing, right? Yeah, that's what it was. I'm so glad that I think, I don't know if it's still going on, but they were doing a thing where like you could buy a key and then they sold a box for the key and then people bought both and opened it

and it was a key for another box. And last I heard, they were like on box four and i'm so glad i missed that because that is the thing i would have been in that loop 100 and i'd be so annoyed by box four just endlessly buying boxes that you don't know the purpose of hell are they expensive boxes i think they're like 25 or 30 bucks a box like it's not insignificant is the promise there'll be a payoff at some point i think there might be something where like if you lift up the foam on the on the inside of the box there might be something to it i think but i'm not sure what it is not clear to me and this maybe has already been resolved, but I don't know what the end game is. It's something that I like randomly get on my tick tock every like four days.

I can't say that. It's typically the same box. Have, uh, have you guys noticed an increase in Dobermans lately? No. Is that just me? Yeah.

It's just you. I don't like that. I haven't seen one in ages i'm not well first off i i have no issue with dobermans i actually think they're they're lovely dogs um uh i don't have an issue with them like andrew apparently but it was the weirdest thing like when i was a kid growing up dobermans were the original pitbulls like they were like everybody had a doberman like in the 70s and then they were considered like aggressive and dangerous and then they were banned everywhere and then suddenly nobody had Dobermans anymore and they weren't in movies anymore and then pit bulls became like the thing that everybody was scared of and now that like that's the quote-unquote bad dog and I guess

maybe the moratorium is is breaking because when I went for my bike ride yesterday I saw three different Dobermans on the hike and bike trail. Wow. I don't think I've seen a Doberman in the wild in like 10 years, probably. And to see three in the same day, I realized, oh, something's happening. Something's afoot. That was Magnum P.I.'s dog, right? He had a Doberman? Yeah, Zeus and Apollo, I think, they were Higgins dogs.

Didn't make the fictional dog draft, though. Higgins dogs would have been great picks oh I had an idea for another animal related draft I wanted to throw you guys away what about the talking animal draft oh so like can puppets be in yeah a Bugs Bunny could be in

uh Dr. Dolittle animals could be in like any animal that talks dogs on commercials that talk. I'm going to look who's talking three is what I'm going with exclusively my whole board. You could absolutely do that as a whole as a whole lot of talking animals there. I'm trying to think a great talking animal. There's that talking dog movie from I want to say last summer that you look at a trailer for and just go, nobody's gonna

see this. And then nobody saw it. Was it like Strays or something like that? Yeah, that's what it was called. Yeah. I've seen quite a few of Beverly Hills Chihuahua. There's like four of those, I think. The Taco

Bell Dog Talks. He was in the other draft too though yeah uh will arnett is in one maybe not cartoon talking in but real but like real animals that talk will arnett talking dog movie what do you mean you know like you know how like when not cartoon and you talk to the cat and the cat talks back to you and you guys have a conversation gavin no like real? No, but when the real Taco Bell dog, they would make that dog talk as opposed to a cartoon.

Bugs Bunny wouldn't count. I said Bugs Bunny earlier and now I'm disqualifying Bugs Bunny from it because it's a cartoon. No animated talking animals. Only real animals animated to talk. Like animatronic talking animals I think could work but not but like it's photorealistic cg does that count as animated example please uh like the new lion

king that's a good question that's uh i think that would count because it's photorealistic oh it needs to be photorealistic? That's the cutoff? It doesn't feel like a 2D cartoon to me. That feels more like real life. And it's acting next to real people. What about Bugs Bunny in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Now we're talking.

Now we're getting to the brass tacks here. If you're going to start making declarations about what can and can't be on the draft board, we got to really get down to it. Yeah, I don't. That's a good question. I don't know. I don't know. What about a 3D Bugs Bunny from the movie with Jenna Elfman where he is in the

real world. Back in action. Looney Tunes back in action? Yeah, Looney Tunes back in action. What about that? I don't know. I haven't seen it. What about this? Look,oney Tunes back in action. What about that? I don't know. I haven't seen it. What about this? That's good. Look, I just sent it to you.

What about that? Oh. Yeah, I guess so. Why not? But if he was talking to like Elmer Fudd and the whole thing was animated, you'd say no? Yeah, I guess so.

Why not? Okay, okay. Then let me propose this to you what if he's speaking to elmer fun it's in the real world once again i think i'm back in yeah i think that's funny because he's also interacting with real world people in the real world oh man i'm just looking at show dogs movie i haven't thought about in a long time i fucked up i should have taken some of these dogs there's a lot of dog draft a lot of animals who talk there's a lot of talking animals the finding like the best ones is tough what about rocky and bow ankle did these count because it's they did like it's them with Robert De Niro in this movie.

Does that count? Yeah, I'll count that. Wow. OK. Oh, trying to find the line, Gavin. I'm trying to find it. I mean, you're showing me the same thing over and over again with different characters. The line.

There's no line. Three images are identical. I don't agree. Humans in the real world standing next to animated characters. But what if, what about Rocky and Bo Winkle, a fully animated movie that's 3D CG?

No. Makes no sense. No, that's not photorealistic. I don't see humans in there. Not real. I don't buy it. It's not blurring the lines between reality and fiction.

I can't do it. It's also the same fucking characters. You're showing me the same, if it were, it's like, just use Bullwinkle from the other one. It doesn't do it. It's also the same fucking characters. You're showing me the same. Just use Bullwinkle from the other one. It doesn't really matter. Right. I'm trying to find the line. There's a Rocky and Bullwinkle that works and a Rocky and Bullwinkle that doesn't. So I'm trying to find the one that is a maybe from you.

Well, you got a yes and a no. So pick the yes and then move on. We're good. Got it. I feel like we found the line. Eric's always pretty aggressive towards finding the line. What about the episode of The Simpsons where Homer goes into the real world?

Is that the old, like, what if the dog was there? Well, we're not dealing with what ifs that didn't happen if it was the dog if he took Santa's little helper with him then yeah that'd be fine

but that's not what happened I want to go jump in a river Nick any thoughts? nope I need to solve a puzzle I hate bringing up draft ideas anymore why? why we're overcomplicating this. a puzzle. It's so stupid. I hate, I hate bringing up draft ideas anymore.

Why? It's the worst. It's a good draft. Yeah. Well, I feel like drafts at the moment are just causing arguments between you and Eric.

Yeah. It's what's happening. I don't know why. Because Eric. I can't wait for, for the drink draft to come out. That's going to be a lot of fun. Whenever that comes out.

Speaking of arguments between people, that's not my heat. No, your heat is breakfast foods. My heat is breakfast foods, yeah. Yeah, Nick, you edited that, right? I did. Did you have to do a little bit extra on that one? I did. Did you have to do a little bit extra on that one? I did.

Yeah, it was trimmed a little bit. Breakfast foods. There might be a couple of moments specifically I'd like you to trim. Yeah. The breakfast foods draft that we did was a learning experience from the condiments draft. I went from mall draft to condiment in one second i don't know how it was a thing where i as soon as like things got heated in the breakfast foods draft i reflected on the condiments draft and i did the opposite and i felt like it was a lot better i was like

this is i'm going the opposite direction this because we we're not at condiments level yet but it could have led there it was when they're looking at the gauges in Chernobyl and be like ah it's not this doesn't look great but uh thankfully we didn't explode my anger and annoyance caught me off guard

and it took me uh maybe five minutes to get under get it under control and then I was fine then we were fine oh I was I was actively working against any condiment type scenario. We all were, I think. You know in movies when they tap on a gauge sometimes and it like

makes the gauge move like it was stuck there? Does that ever happen in real life? Yeah. When? I'm sure it happens all the time. They do it in the movie because it's based off of something right it's not and the gauge is like the thing that it's doing is we're gonna find it's just that little

mechanical thing gets stuck sometimes a little floaty I don't know if they do it in the movies because it happens in real life but I would bet you that it happens in real life because they do it in the movies I would love more analog gauges in my life like for internet speed like you know when your internet is just real life because they do it in the movies. I would love more analog gauges in my life. Like for

internet speed. Like you know when your internet is just getting dog shit and slow for no reason. I just want to see what it's really doing. You just want to tap it. I want to tap the gauge to see if my internet speeds up. Is it really that slow? And then you tap it and it releases and it just starts spinning so fast to the right.

And you're like oh my god downloaded everything. That's God. Download everything. That's exciting. In the same vein, wouldn't it be cool if you could see, uh, like how much data you've used on your plan through like a water meter, uh, style,

uh, dial. The disc goes, I love that idea. Like, so it's ticking. Yeah. Like,

I really love that. Oh man. What the, what was that Gavin? I love that idea. Like it's always ticking? Yeah. I really love that idea. Shut up! What the fuck? What was that, Gavin? Yes, my freaking soundbar has Alexa in it, and I don't know how to tell. Oh, yeah. And I say stuff that sounds like that a lot.

Something sort of in that tone. And this might be a thing that Truck Boys might be really into, Jeff. Far Jeff farming simulator 25 as a collector's edition that comes with a USB ignition lock. It is like a physical lock and you can sync it to your computer. And when you put the key in and twist it, you can start your tractor in the game by doing that physical function, which I'm kind of all about.

I, if only, if only that game was fucking fun to play. I mean, they keep making them. Is there actually fun stuff to do now? Do you think? No,

I taught, we, we, we downloaded it. The truck boys and I downloaded it and played it one night and we all bailed. It just, it was not fun. I wanted it to be the same way about snow runner though when i first

started like maybe if you push through was that like a gaspia yeah that's that's my that's my internet uh meter for the month i want one of these for podcasting so i can mute you guys whenever i want it would just each switch would assign a scribe to one of you and I'd be like, I don't want to hear any more of that and I could flip it off. So if I were to, let's say, if I did this, if I...

We can't... You'd mute me, right? Yeah, I'd have to. We can't put that in. It mute me, right? You flipped. Yeah, I have to. We can't put that in. It's just music. It's just music. No, Eric, I made it. I made that.

Don't worry about it. You keep saying that. I made it. I give you a thumbs up. You can use it. I made that. That's not how that works. Hey, both thumbs up right now, man.

Uh-huh. You see these thumbs? Look at these fucking thumbs. Two thumbs up right now, man. Uh-huh. You see these thumbs? Look at these fucking thumbs. Two thumbs up. I made that. Don't worry about it. Well, there's our thumbnail. That's me approving of my version of the immunity bullet.

It's just two thumbs to myself that I'm very happy about it. I appreciate you. I appreciate someone keeping convict alive. Thank you very much. That's right. That you're doing that for him. Yeah, I'm doing that. That's me.

Do you see what Vin Diesel tweeted or posted on Instagram over Father's Day? Did you see his Father's Day post? No. I love Vin Diesel because he's an insane person. Vin Diesel tried to bridge the gap with Putin over Father's Day. What the fuck did you just say? Vin Diesel tried to bridge the gap of peace,

I guess on a global scale, with Putin over Father's Day while also teasing Riddick 4 and concept art for Fast and Furious Part 2, 10 Part 2 or 11, whatever it is. All in one tweet? All in one post. Yeah, it was the first half was like, hey, I'm scouting Riddick four in Europe right now
