This is a Rooster Teeth production. Previously on F*** Face. Hello and welcome to another episode of the F*** Face podcast. This is episode 97? Does that sound right to you, Eric? Yeah, that's right. I wrote it, and it's 97. Oh, it's right in front of me.

Episode 97. My name is Jeff Ramsey, and with me, as always, Andrew Panton. Hello, Andrew. How's it going? I'm great. I have a question that I assume is for Eric. I don't know who does this.

I assume it's Eric's thing. I could be wrong. I'm not done with the intro yet. I assume it's Eric's thing. I could be wrong. I'm not done with the intro yet, though. Hold on just a second. Okay, go ahead. And as always, Gavin Free. How's it going today, Gavin? Okay.

Sorry, Andrew, you wanted to ask your question. That was actually not bad, Eric. Thank you very much. I've been practicing. As long as we needed oh no okay well this changes the dynamic well never mind nothing's changed hello hey gavin how's it going man you started you said you're excited or you're tired no i said have you started neither oh yeah we're starting right now it's three o'clock 301 we started about a minute ago are you excited

are you possibly tired uh, just the first one. You excited? Yeah, I'm excited. Excited. I technically wasn't late. I was on three exactly, but it was like three and probably 55 seconds.

That's okay. You sent us a very funny image to the Discord that we'll throw up that just says, it's a Windows screen that says, working on updates,

30% complete. Do not run it off computer. So you picked an interesting time to update your computer i realized well i still haven't restarted it and i thought i can't wait like six weeks without restarting it so i just went for it about uh 255 but it was oh i should have started 254 yeah well your computer finished updating yeah holy fuck it takes me like six hours to like export one of these files i was like there's no way he's gonna make it i hate so much we've been doing this for almost two years and you still have the state the same piece of shit steam train coal computer i'd love a new computer okay what one then. We'll get you one. That sounds great.

Sounds fantastic. I don't know how to organize that. Someone wants to organize that. That sounds great. Eric, get the credit card. Yeah, I'll get the credit card for the show. Oh, Henry's starting off early today too. He's also excited.

Can I ask my question? Because I feel like we're going to drift away and it's really tied. It's tied to the intro. It. Tied to a specific part of it. Why did we stop numbering the episodes of the show? What? We didn't. This is episode 97. I just said it. No, I know. But if you look at it on podcast apps, we number up to 43, I think. And then the numbers stop. I thought we didn't number at first and I was campaigning for the numbers and then the numbers came in are you saying the numbers have gone again

oh the numbers have been gone since 43 from what I could tell no I was curious I'm pretty sure I was looking at least on Google podcast on their app we go to 43 and then it's just it's just the name who's in charge of that Nick or Eric I don't know yeah Nick yeah

Nick's in charge of that. Nick just typed Jesus, what? I'm just like, why? I was just curious. There's a reason. I also, I'm looking at them. They're numbered on Apple, so I don't know what to tell you. They're not numbered on YouTube. Let me look at, let me pull up my, I don't want to, I could be wrong. I mean, I'm looking at the number tell you. They're not numbered on YouTube. Let me pull up my...

I could be wrong. I apologize. Yeah, they're numbered on Apple. On the Google podcast, which was... Okay. They're not here. That's why.

Today I found out Google has a podcast thing. Yeah, me too. I thought it was just Apple and Spotify. We're in the process of the animated thing, and I've been trying to source what episodes came from where. And it's a nightmare beyond 43, but I'll switch to Apple. I'll make it a lot easier. We came up with a name for it.

Have we announced the name? I don't think we have. I don't even think we've announced that we're doing an animated series. I don't think we've gotten past early tests in animatics. I don't think that we've proven that it's even going to be a viable thing. Oh, okay. Whatever, Mike.

Well, why don't you go ahead and name it so people can ask for it when it never shows up. Maybe it should be announced in a nice trailer or something. Like a 10-second thing. Oh, we've already announced this. We've already talked about it on the show.

In the most f*** face way ever, we've announced talked about it in the most show in the most face way ever we're we've announced it on the show now and now you're going maybe we should announce it a different way that's not gonna happen we've announced it like a week ago it's already come out us talking about it i feel like two weeks ago there was it up i think it's as nick said i think i talked about already i think i asked in the episode can I talk about it you're like yeah Gavin's like a month ago wasn't it because I said that it was quite a while ago so Gavin you've been keeping everybody

in suspense for a month you came up with the name why don't you say what it is I would say it was in collaboration with Eric but we've decided on face regulation animation yeah didn't didn't it's a great Nice regulation animation. It's a great name.

Yeah, that's a fantastic name. I absolutely love it. Didn't want to take any credit away from Eric. Didn't realize it was a combo naming. Well, he inspired me. Congratulations to both of you. I think it's a great name. I'm all about it.

We cannot use the word, when appropriate, you cannot overuse the word regulation. It's a regulation word. It's a great word. It's a great regulation word. What's the regulation amount of regulations per episode? I mean, it's purely conversationally dependent,

you know? Yeah. There might be episodes where the word's not appropriate at all. Although I would find that hard to believe. That's fair. Hey, so we got three big things to talk about today and I want to make sure we get through all of them.

One, I know everybody remembers, well first off, there was a bean hole. We need to discuss that. I'm so excited. I've been actively avoiding any infractions. I've been so busy. The bean hole saga has been completed. And I saw there was some confusion.

I think a lot... Now, of course, I'm talking to the audience from three weeks ago because we're recording in advance. But a lot of people were looking for that little video teaser that we watched in the episode. We only released some images of it

because we want to cut a full video together. It's probably out by now. But now, three weeks later, you'll understand why we didn't do it and stop complaining that it's not on the Instagram. So we got the completed Beanhole Saga. We have Jeff signing 350 baseballs. Jeff signing the 350 baseballs.

And of course, this is the unveiling of all of our cup ideas that we were going to agree to come back with. Oh, as somebody who is actively avoided the bean hole and the signing thing, the fact that you described it as you, I believe it's the first time you've described it as you signing the baseballs and not hitting the baseballs, which has me worried. Okay.

Well, I'll tell you what. Of those three things, I'll let y'all pick. What do we want to talk about first? Well, baseball is something I've been working on all morning. A little clip for you, Andrew. Let's build up to that, then. You don't have any clips of Beanhole, do you? Why are we building? What are we building for?

If we got visual aids, I think we should show Andrew the video. I want to see the video. Okay, well, before we do that, Andrew, what are you doing? No, no, this is part of it. Andrew, before we do that, let me ask you a question. You know the premise of this

if you're new to F***face, if you're not deep into the lore of nothing uh then then what was what was proposed was that i signed a baseball bat backwards uh well it burned my signature into a baseball bat backwards dipped it in paint and was going to autograph 350 baseballs by having them shot at me via a pitching machine and then me hitting them. Andrew, let me ask you, how do you think that went? Oh, horrible. It was never going to work.

It's a disastrous idea. It would just fail miserably. Where do you think the breakdown was? Was it my ability to hit a ball? Was it my decrepit age and arthritis? Was it just a flawed concept from the start? Oh, it's a flawed concept from the start. That's not how bats work.

What you did makes no difference to anything. It just would be smeared paint on a ball. It would do nothing. Your signature would not be legible. We've known this from the start. This is not a surprise. So you think that the signature didn't work, but I probably was really good at hitting a baseball then?

I think you're capable of hitting a baseball. I don't think you're going to hit 350 in an afternoon. How many do you think I could have hit in an afternoon? I bet you hit, I would put the line at like 30 at most. Well, I'll say this. Why don't we refer to exhibit A? Yeah, okay, here we go. Oh!

Ready? Okay, Jeff is in baseball. He's lighting up. He's at the plate. Okay, all right. I'm going to count down. No, go ahead, Andrew. Go ahead.

It just looks like you've pine-tared your bat the entire way. That doesn't look at all like a thing. I've dipped it in a bucket of black house paint. Black house paint. I've got Larry Bird socks on. My oldest Vans. A baseball uniform. I've got a Don Zimmer shirt on under.

And my kind lady kitty hat. This is not going to sound... That's Nick. By the way, Nick is there. Nick and Eric and Gavin were all present. And... This is super fan check. Made an appearance. Eventually. Oh, that's great. This is is super fan check made an appearance eventually.

Oh, that's great. This is going to sound like it's an insult and I don't mean it to be Jeff. This is a very strange photo because from like the hips up, it looks like somebody who knows baseball, but from the hips down, it looks so out of it.

Nothing about your footing or the way you're standing. It looks like you're very uncomfortable, but waist up looks great. I will tell you this. I am a little uncomfortable because there are, that is a, it's just holes,

holes in the ground. I'm trying to stand around. You can see my back foot is, my heel of my back foot is like three inches lower than the top of my foot. I have a question for Gavin. Before you saw this paint, and you have been

visualizing this process in your mind, what color did you always see being used? I'm curious if you had one. I had a very consistent in my head what this would look like. I think I was expecting something a bit fluorescent, like orange or something. I was thinking red. In my head, it was always

red paint that you'd be using. I'm pretty sure it was anything other than black for me. Well, let me say this about the paint. Eric bought the paint. I didn't choose the color, but the color's fine. I thought it was okay. I can't believe anybody thought anything other than black one of the colors for this show. Yeah, it makes total sense, Eric. I just wasn't visualizing that at all. Yeah, just my visualization has always been red. And like Gavin said. I don't know why. My visualization has always been red.

And like Gavin said, I don't know why. It's just where my brain has always been. Well, do you guys want to see the... Gavin sent me this and said play it for everyone. I have not watched this. Oh, I'm so excited. Are you guys ready? It's about a minute long.

Yes. Oh, okay. Will this be on Instagram? I'm going to make a full episode for this. Something will be there. Okay. Okay, here right here. We will this be on the Instagram. I'm gonna make you out Something will be there. Yeah, okay, okay here. We go Nothing's gonna happen. I'm already happy oh Jesus oh No oh no oh no Oh, no. Oh, no This is the same shot we're seeing over and over again. Are these all different? Terrible different.

No! I've never seen anyone be so bad at anything. Oh my god. You hit it. So we're going to sell one baseball. This is what I've learned. I see what you've done there, Gavin. What do you mean, Jeff?

No, nothing. Go right ahead. Continue on. I thought that was great. That was cool. That was great. That was cool. That was fantastic. Why don't you tell them what else happened? Jeff, I've prepared a second video.

Okay, thank you. Okay. God, this better be a real video. It's going to be a minute. I have to download it. And it's going to be a minute. I have to download it. And it's two gigs. Why didn't he send me both? Jeff, I thought you looked great taking all those swings there, bud.

Thanks, man. Yeah. Hang on. About halfway. Almost there. I don't. I was laughing laughing hard that's kind of making fun of you and your defense it's impossible to look good missing at a baseball swing like it's not your fault it's just not there's no way to look cool during that so for those uh

for those who haven't seen it and are only listening i cut together every single jeff swing and miss that i could find and put it as well honestly so many of them look like they're repeat shots but they're all completely different to the point where like the bat is swinging around in one shot and then it cuts to the next shot and it's swinging the other way it kind of looks like a little helicopter how many swings and some of those were foul tips but how many swings and misses would you say i need to do the full count i'll be able to get that when i finish the full uh the full thing well if those are just the misses i feel like you have greatly exceeded my expectations are you ready for this second video i am so ready certainly am i'm hoping i'm gonna

see some things jeff you don't don't watch that first video one more time Just okay. I'm good. I'm good that first video was very funny Would you have been mad if that's the only video I would have I might have been a little bummed yeah All right, this is a way less funny way more surprising video This is the first bull the very first pitch I was You hit a home run? Yeah, yeah. Whoa! Whoa! Wow. Dude! You're just dangin' em. Whoa!

I feel like this is contributing to the problems of the other video. You're going full power. Like, look at this, there's no cut here. Well, wait. So this is... That was a home run.

There's people just giving up. Every once in a while I'm not lying. Geoff, like, it's the strangest thing. He has the least graceful form. Nothing about the swing looks impressive, but's just flying another back-to-back have a question still this is long this is I apologize That's some good contact. Wow, this is... You hit a lot of balls. Be careful, Southwest.

We got to the point where we had people just standing outside of the field at the back, because most of them were going into the trees. I was going to say, we need to sell these. The backdrop looks like it just goes nowhere, like off a cliff. Yeah, we lost so many Is it so what is the backdrop of this place is it is it as it appears that it just like is a hillside?

Yeah, it's like a hillside kind of like Canyon almost it just goes down. It into like brush and bramble. Look at that. I think next time looking for the balls. The biggest problem we had on the day is that I hit too many home runs too far and we lost

probably 20 balls. Next time I'm in Austin, I want to try to find one. Okay. I want to go there. I want to see if I can get one. I would guess you saw me miss about 40 swings out of it. I'll be honest with you. I didn't hit 350 balls.

I hit 250 and I stopped. Wow. Yeah. That's way better than I thought. 250 proved to be that was my limit of the 250 i would say i connected uh i i fully connected on probably 70 of them on the first time first try uh you saw every time i missed in the first video i would say i would guess i probably hit 50 home runs and we decided that we would box up a ball if he swinged or swung and missed,

but not if he didn't swing. So he either hit it or he swung and missed, and that's what we're selling. So we're only selling the ones he missed? Yeah, like if he didn't go for the swing, we just put it back into the rotation to pitch again. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on. The wording of that is weird.

If Jeff swung the bat at the ball, that ball is being sold, whether it was connected with or not. Okay, understood. I hit every ball eventually. The ones that we swung and missed, I hit again later. Back through the rotation.

Okay, so that is all answered. Is there a photo of what a signature looks like with this this bat paint idea i'd like to see what a ball after being hit appeared like uh i don't have one do you guys know i hang on if you give me a second i think that i can send you a picture okay i'm leaving the stream okay i'll go back no no you know what i can i it. It's going to be easier if I slack it to you guys. OK, let's look at slack because that is the other layer of this. Like beyond you being able to hit. I'm very impressed, Jeff, that you hit as many as you did.

That's amazing. I'm curious what the signature actually looks like. It looks like. Well, I guess Eric will show you. It looks pretty much like what you expect it to look like I've sent the pictures now oh yes it's just black smudges which is great

awesome awesome so what there was just official signature what did you do to the bat what did I do to it yeah what do you mean like what was the work you did on the bat that was the work you did on the bat that was meant to end up on the ball?

Oh, I burned my name into it so that there was one ball we found that had a G on it. One of the early balls had an actual G on it. Somebody will get it. It'll be theirs. But we worked out afterwards that you've burned into the bat.

Yes. So the only way it could be a g is if it was an inverse g no i burned it in backwards on the bat so that it would be correct on the ball no but it's sunken into the bat it's not sticking out yeah but the what we what i was doing early on is i was dipping it and then i was i was uh wiping down the barrel so that the only paint that was on the bat was in the reservoirs of the G of my name. Hey, Andrew, when you looked at that bat and you said, boy, it looks like you rubbed pine tar all over that thing,

did it look like the only paint on that bat were in the reservoirs of the signature? Well, that's because that went out the window very quickly. But it worked with the first like four balls. And then I, then I was just, then I was just trying to sling as much paint on them as possible. And I thought it looked way cooler to have a big black smudge or anything

else. I know like the, the MLB has changed their pine tar rules over time. I don't think there was ever a time in which that amount of pine tar would be acceptable for the coverage of the bat. Like it was, it was bottom to top just coated yeah i look like trey turner right uh dude i was hoping that gavin was gonna accuse you of corking the bat when he was asking about he doesn't know what corking the bat yeah i don't i don't know what that means andrew i'm

sorry not that's okay uh we were all very surprised and i think i don't i can't tell if jeff was strolling out there with confidence or whether he was just hoping uh what do you think it was jeff were you just relieved or were you like oh i knew i was gonna do that uh i'll be honest with you guys i i have that level of confidence in all this stuff i still think i can throw i still think i can throw the ball 80 miles an hour. I wouldn't have said it if I didn't think I could do it. My body has gotten in the way, but the thing that I realized,

I don't know if we talked about this on the podcast or not, but I'm 46. I hadn't hit a baseball with a baseball bat since I was 17. And so it's been 29 years. In my head, I could still hit like I was 17. And it turns out, I could.

I was still able. I would say my batting average on the day was probably 750, which is astronomical. Again, the pitching machine was only pitching 45. But, I mean, that's about as fast as I can throw at the moment. And I probably knocked out 40 or 50 home runs i felt really really good about that that first video that first video oh man you really you really got me with that one boy did you but uh but out of 200 i hit 250 balls that day we probably lost 20 20 of the

home runs we just couldn't get to. How did I feel the next day? Eric asked. But no, Andrew, I was relieved. I was super relieved that I didn't embarrass myself. I felt vindicated because there were about 10 people that went out there purely

to watch me fall on my face, including my girlfriend, including her parents who were in from Oregon, including superfan Jack and Cole and a bunch of Eric's friends. And I went out and first pitched, put one over the field, and then proceeded

to do it 50 more times. So I felt good about myself for once. That was nice. Now, to answer Eric's question, how did I feel about the next day? Or how did I feel the next day? Today is the first day I haven't limped.

Oh no. I could... Monday was hell. It was excruciating. My hip, my right hip where I was swinging, it. Oh no. My hip, my right hip where I was swinging,

it was on fire. My legs hurt. My elbows hurt. My back hurt. My shoulders hurt. All of that though paled in comparison to my hands

which were just, I don't know if you've ever bruised the palms of your hands. I guess I had not. Certainly not to this extent. My right hand was black on the padding. And both of my hands,

the entirety of the inside of my hands hurt so bad that just touching them was excruciating. By the way, fuck glass. Let me get back to that. I was in the bathroom and I picked up a glass to get some laundry detergent from this thing. And my hand just immediately dropped it and shattered it everywhere. And I couldn't hold the broom because I couldn't hold the broom with my hands to sweep it up. It hurt so fucking bad.

It hurt. I mean, that surely is not the glasses' fault. My hands are fine now, but my finger, I had no tensile strength. My finger, I could barely drive. It was hard to put my hands around the steering wheel until yesterday. My hands started to feel better yesterday. Today, they're fine.

You took your glove off on the day and you had a big big fat forearm and wrist. Like it would already... Oh, yeah. My left wrist would swole up insane. That was crazy. But I hit 250 fucking baseballs swinging as hard as I could.

So I guess, you know... I apologize if you've covered... How long were you guys out there? How long did this take? A couple hours? Two hours, maybe? Yeah, probably about two. I really thought it was going to take...

I thought it was going to take us four or five hours to do this because I thought there were going to be a lot of breaks. Jeff took maybe two breaks, and that was mostly to give the outfielders a break from just standing in the sun watching 200-foot bombs fly over their heads. You once asked me in a podcast earlier, Eric,

how far I thought I could hit the ball. And I said I thought I could hit it about 200 feet and you laughed at me. I think 200 feet's about my range, though. Oh, you were crushing of 200 consistently, like back-to-backers where they were going like the same spot. I bet even people at the car show were impressed

what what was that there's a car show what was going on there what was the car show there was so this is the park where we play all the time like me and my friends the guys who came out Jordan Sweers and

Cole and a few other people every time we go out it's a big empty park and we go to the baseball field it's a big empty baseball field i show up sunday morning to start getting set up before everyone gets there and it is just it's a andrew it's a car show like a like a tricked out like it's a car it's like a full-on car show and i almost had a panic attack uh i just i pulled my 90 like my 2007 hyundai accent up to this car show where i usually park to go to baseball and the guy just looked at me and went you're i don't think you're supposed to be here and i went i don't think i am, but can I unload my stuff and then park anywhere else? And he's like, yeah, that's fine.

There was just a car show. A lot of people at this car show. On a Sunday morning. So weird. Yeah, with like the bonnets up, big tricked out rims, like big purple hummers with art on, like 19 speakers hanging out the back, like that kind of thing. And then we're just there getting dropped off in

normal cars. And they're very confused about it it it made me so excited because i've been actively avoiding all info about this because i want to hear for the first time on the show the only thing i saw relating to this was eric posted a map and a group text of where to go and it looked like reconnaissance from like a military movie it's like a google maps top down view and there's lines like the fact it seemed like a whole mission just to get there and i was immediately it just furthered the excitement this is great i'm so glad that this finally came together when are we going to sell the baseballs do we have a date for that yet i don't know but i would like uh they were supposed to pick them up this was a econ was supposed to pick them up

this week and they haven't done it yet, but I got 250 baseballs and by the way, we have another 100 baseballs that we haven't like, we just didn't even open the final box so we can hit them with another color of paint, or maybe have Gavin hit them, or come up with some we got 100 baseballs to fuck with in some

way, or sell them pristine if we want but I feel like we could do, I feel like what we've done here is very fun and very clever and very and i think people will really like it we should say that there's not just a signature on these balls the way the pitching machine worked i realized was just a spinning tire inside that red thing so they all have a skid mark on them yeah and there's also a lot of grass and leaves and stuff jeff how how many seconds into that first video did you realize that i'd uh screwed with you a second well the second at that so immediately yeah immediately man i will say uh i don't know why I haven't been hitting baseballs for the last 29 years.

It is a ton of fucking fun. And I had never hit a pitching machine before. Holy shit, those things were great. Is that going to be your new hobby now? Are you just going to be in batting cages? Yeah, but not at, I'm going to, I'll do like 50, not 250. Yeah, you're not, you're going to be immobilized.

So is it safe to say that beans are not a cure for swelling and just general hip pain? Because I'm assuming it sounded like before those were back-to-back endeavors. They were.

We went straight to the beans. And I've not yet prepared the bean video, but I do have two pictures from it that I think sum it up quite nicely. Oh, I'm so excited. So it's been a long day, or two hours at least sweating hot out texas swinging at baseballs you come home for the so gaff dog shit. What a heartbreaking story in two photos. Nick said it looks like the

pots of food in Resident Evil 7. It does. It does. It's so bad. I can't believe there was a time in which I was sad I missed the beans. How many people came over for the business? Just Nick and Eric and Gavin. Oh, it was a very exclusive.

It was just it was limited to face. Well, yeah. And Emily, her parents, who Emily's dad was so sweet. He had two helpings. I don't know why. What? Yeah. Wait, you ate these?

Yeah. Gavin did, too ate these? Yeah. Gavin did too. That's right. So it was a day of, it was a contrasting day of highs and lows. I think that the baseball thing couldn't have gone better. Biggest vindication of my adult life. It turns out I am, I should be backting cleanup for the Dodgers.

But probably not cooking for them. The bean hole was a disaster. An unmitigated disaster. Not only did it come out of the ground looking like that, they were undercooked. And lukewarm at best at one point we went to the hole where we just buried all the ashes the day before and i put my hand on the ground and i was like oh it's a bit warm and then eric was like is it

warm because of the fire or warm because the sun is on it and i just put my hand on a different piece of the yard that had the sun on it and i was like it's because the sun is on it. And I just put my hand on a different piece of the yard that had the sun on it. And I was like, it's because the sun's on it. Absolutely no heat coming from underground whatsoever. It's clear to me that we... I'll be honest, I was pretty demoralized. I actually haven't moved that Dutch oven of beans from that spot. It's still sitting there.

I refuse to be. I'm just avoiding my backyard. Can you quickly take a photo of what the beets look like now? Can we get a beet update? Yeah, I'll go outside in a second and do it. I'll go outside in a second and do it. Oh, my God. They definitely didn't fully cook.

Clearly, the fire went out early. I don't know if we didn't put enough coals in there. I don't know. We've got put enough coals in there I don't know we gotta go back to the drawing board you didn't have enough space to put coals in your one foot hole it was so hot Gavin and I could barely get them in it was so hot right

cause it's one foot off the ground I was wondering whether we should have left like an air chimney to keep the embers alive but I think in all the videos, it just says completely burial. Yeah, it's so weird. So clearly we have to do it again. Because while we were eating the beans and we all ate the beans,

we realized that we should make a cookbook. Face cooks the food and we can have our be our perfected bean hole recipe in there what was the other recipe well we wanted to use the uh the pizza oven that oh yeah never touched gavin's gonna make pizza in my pizza oven and we're gonna come up with a face pizza recipe andrew can make it we can put andrew's salad in there andrew did you know jeff has a fully massive proper outdoor pizza oven and he doesn't seeing this now and he doesn't use it he's never used it that i mean that checks out that feels like a thing you know why why it's right behind me in that photo uh there's a spider in it

so i'm gonna go in there pest control i'm gonna burn out all the wildlife and then i can't i can't i can't do this oh my god why why is that just why is that the reason well I also don't know I don't know how to make pizza in a pizza oven yeah that's fine but it's icky it's like icky in there

I'll clean it out alright and that's gonna be we're gonna illustrate I was even thinking we could use the illustrations from the F*** Face Regulation Animation Show. And so we could have really well-illustrated, complicated cooks. Because like the beanhole, it's not easy.

It's not for the faint of heart. But when we get it perfected, it's going to go right in the book. Dude, suddenly- Gavin's pizza, boom. F*** Face just became so much work all at once. I've got, I'm editing like multiple videos in the face universe i'm cleaning buckets of house paint off the front of my camera i'm trying to buy

a new leg for my tripod because oh as soon as soon as one ball whizzed right by my camera andrew the game completely changed for jeff he was no longer going for the ball signing he was trying his absolute hardest to wreck my camera with Benzels. You know, that's a good point. I probably could have hit more home runs, but for the last, I would say the last half of the day, I was

trying purely to kill Gavin's camera. And I did take out his tripod. It's true. And I've looked into replacement parts because I don't really want to... He basically bent one leg, but it's really just one, like, telescopic segment of one leg.

And I looked it up. They're $45 per segment. So I think I can just replace it with two. I'm just glad you didn't hit the lens. You painted the lens, but it's not functioning. I tried so hard. And you know if I would have hit that lens, I wouldn't have felt bad at all. I was really... No, I know. You. And you know, if I would have hit that lens,

I wouldn't have felt bad at all. I was really, no, I know you would have cheered and I would have been, I would have had to congratulate you because I chose to put it there. Yeah. Yeah. You would have hit the lens.

We'd only have one video. It would only be the first video. The leg got hit. And then it was like, oh man, it won't even close. And then it was Gavin when we were done trying to close it until eventually he did get it closed and then couldn't get it back open because it's bent. And then it just broke off.

Yeah, I think by shoving, I was trying to bend it back and I shoved the leg in and now it's permanently stuck in. So now I feel like I'm actually going to have to replace the entire leg instead of just removing that bent-in section. Just send me the thing and I'll buy it. Happy to do it. Jesus Christ. I'm heading from laughing so hard. It was a very eventful weekend.

It was a huge face weekend and it was sad that you weren't there, Andrew. We actually talked about we wanted to conference call you in on the bean hole, but then we didn't want to spoil anything for you. Yeah, we wanted your reaction for the episode, but also it made me just super excited for our first Canada trip.

Oh, that's another thing. We're going to have a crab leg recipe because we're going to go crabbing and then we'll have a crab. F*** Face cooks the food. We'll have crabs and pizza and beans and Andrew's salads and hot dogs. You want to make ramen? You want to make ramen in a Keurig?

Andrew's got the recipe. Can we make a hot dog hole? Can we figure out a way to do this? We can totally make a hot dog hole. Would we just drill a little individual holes? No. That's a funny idea i was thinking just putting them in a giant pot like boiling like water boil like hot dogs like that type of style there's no way it'll work but it can't be worse than the beans the bar is already been set so low

flavor wise i feel like we're fine they just tasted a little bit like uh room temperature day old baked beans that That weren't fully cooked. Yeah. But nobody gets sick. That's true. I was pretty gassy because I had two full bowls, but didn't throw up. Nick said they weren't that bad. They weren't, but they weren't that good either.

And they definitely looked like shit. When you took the lid off, they looked so sort of pale brown it was a weird such a weird color it was such a letdown after such a successful day hitting home runs like i went from home runs to striking out fucking hard on beans oh my god but uh i'm gonna get over it and i'm gonna i'm gonna we're gonna go back to the drawing board we're gonna improve the whole we're gonna improve the process and we're gonna figure it out and that's what

making a cookbook is all about is like figuring out the perfect so the recipe that nobody else has managed to get right oh maybe I should buy

a jackhammer of some sort that's not a bad idea to get deeper through the rocks yeah my mind went pickaxe. I like that you've gone all the way to the jackhammer. I feel like you've,

you couldn't, there couldn't be a larger jump between just a literal hammer to a jackhammer being your next tool. Look, if we're going to start cooking stuff in the ground more, we're going to need the tools. We're going to start cooking stuff in the ground more. It's an untapped market. We cooking exclusively underground

oh man so there you go hitting the baseballs huge success signature it's cool it may not look like my name but it looks like something and beanhole to be continued

Andrew you got any questions? I would. And Beanhole, to be continued. I would argue the Beanhole couldn't be more successful. It was everything I'd want from the Beanhole. If we get good at it, we can dig in public. We could have a little sign. People come by. It would be My Hubby's Hole. My Hubby's Hole. Oh, I watched

the My Hubby's Bagels. They were Instagram living last night. I watched them give a little tour of their facility. They're very good. Aren't they so sweet? Yeah, they're awesome. I can't wait. I can't wait to get their shop opens in like a week.

I can't wait to buy. I think they're at like 250 something followers on Twitter, which is very funny. They're at 315. That's amazing. It's fantastic. It's going to become our official hangout spot in Canada. Absolutely.

I'm so excited. It looks great. Maybe you should go there when it opens and give a little bagel review video. Oh, I'm absolutely going to buy them as soon as it opens for sure. Review? I mean, I'm not going to promise that.

Maybe. I mean, you're a bagel guy. You are a bagel guy. I'm a bagel guy. Here's the thing, though. I'm not going to commit to this because if I don't post a review, I didn't like the bagels.

I see. Like if there's no review, then people will assume I didn't like it. So I'm not going to say it. Maybe I will. I'll definitely talk about this. Maybe the face account will just unfollow it randomly one day. It'll be like it never happened.

No. No. I can't wait to try their food. Just before we go too far, Gavin said, if we get good at it we can do this in public places do you really think that like if if somebody walks by and is like why are you doing this say don't worry i'm an expert like solves any of the issues that would cause being in public like what does our skill level or proficiency have to do with publicly

doing it well just because it's like it'd be like a food trailer, but it'd be just a... Yeah, no, it's not though. We can't just dig a hole in a park and be like, we're good at this. If you replace your divots, I'm sure it's fine. This is even better than caffeinated soup, which we still gotta

make, by the way. I still think caffeinated soup is a phenomenal idea. You already established. No, our caffeinated soup does not exist. That stuff you showed me looked like dog doo-doo. It wasn't specifically. It wasn't like chicken noodle soup and caffeine. From the inventor of whole beans. The whole world

was lousy with food trailers for a couple of years, right? And then everybody got anal worms, and then they all went to brick and mortars. But the next iteration, who needs the truck? We've got the ground food holes. Come on over to F*** Face Food Hole, and we'll dig up whatever you want. We could do like a luau, have a buried pig.

We could have buried hot dogs. We can cook anything you want in the ground. F*** Face Food Holes. We could go to like a kid's birthday, like show up two days before and dig it up. That's what I was going to say. Kind of. There's a zero percent chance anyone does.

Like this is going to apply to anyone that listens to the show. If you own a golf course and don't mind us fucking up a green, it'd be so funny to dig a hole on a green and just watch people trying to golf, like dealing with the fact that we're taking a bean hole on the green, like just completely fucking up their game. If there's anyone that's cool with that, please let us know.

That'd be a very funny video. And if you're not cool with that, what about a sand trap? Could we do it in the sand trap next to the green? Well, you know, golf clubs are notoriously easygoing. Yeah. That's true. Chill, relaxed people that are tolerant to all sorts of groups i saw caddy

shack one and two it's just antics wow you're really committed yeah maybe um maybe a future rtx we can have a beanhole i would love that i would love that well i mean people can come on down to our our our food hole space and then get in line and buy it like everybody else we're gonna be the hottest thing in austin it'll be like the veracruz tacos but in the ground i just uh this is the uh there's so many great possibilities of food underground and why are we doing this underground because jeff read an article once that apparently it was very good yeah that's right it's it's a rich part of my american heritage i'll be honest i was so surprised at both things. I was actually expecting good things from the bean hole,

and I was expecting dog shit from the baseball. My entire Saturday was just turned upside down. Well, Sunday. Yes, it was Sunday. But it was very unexpected. I couldn't believe the beans didn't work out. Yeah, me too, man. Me too.

That's the most believable thing I've ever heard. This is shocking to me. Did you not see the hole? You made the hole. You're part of the hole-making process. It was a 0% chance. It was a hole, Andrew. It was a 0% chance. I will say, the look on all of your faces after about my

15th home run, that made all the bean failure worth it. But man, I wanted those beans to... I wanted them to look like in the YouTube videos I watch. They look so good in those videos. Where would you rank, let's say, if the beans were perfect, Jeff? You have the perfect

bean day, you have an amazing baseball day. Where would that day have ranked in your all-time greatest days? Probably top three. Top three, 100%. Easily. Top three? Yeah. Top three. And only because I have to reserve like Millie's birth for one of those days. Absolutely. Yes. Definitely

top three. If none of my family is listening to this podcast, maybe best day of my life. It was funny watching like the surprise and the cheering at the beginning to the just people standing there just like watching them sail over one at a time hitting trees it was almost like a downer for everyone else but jeff was just absolutely knocking them it's fun baseball's fun

uh so when we've sold all these balls uh there's almost certainly at least 10 still back there. So feel free to go find it. Oh, I can't wait to get one. Just be careful. It is snake country back there. Oh, fuck. I went back there like, I am going to go find my home runs.

Fuck this. And I was back there about 30 seconds and went, oh, no. Okay, I get it. I understand why Cole and Jordan don't want to tromp through this i uh yeah it's pretty sketchy okay well that that just changed the whole game yeah i was all excited you ever like collect golf balls that were shot yeah that was always fun yeah

i loved doing that when i was younger but i had a friend who lived on a field with snakes i had a friend who lived on a golf course when i was in florida so i'd go over to his house on like on a saturday and we would go fucking nuts collecting golf balls. That's great. He lived on the golf course? Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. A lot of people do. Yeah, there's a lot of houses on Perimeter's golf courses. Oh. I assume he's not in the middle between hole 7 and 8. No, yeah.

He operates the food hole over in the sand trap at 17th hole. No, yeah, he operates the food hole over at the sand trap at 17th hole. It's like a fucking mini golf course. He lived in the lighthouse actually that you shot for. His bathroom was in the giant whale. No, it was like a golf community and they were

just like on the edge of the golf course. He's a nice kid. That's great. Yeah yeah i don't remember his name would he i remember enjoying him would he is he do you think he'd be an enthusiast of cups how do you think he would feel oh dude that's a great point that's an excellent transition i think he would be excited about cup and cup theory uh andrew do you uh do you have do you have your do you have your cup do you want to we So to catch the audience up, we determined that glass is dog shit and people shouldn't own it,

especially near their mouths. It's just a recipe for death. And so we decided to design the perfect plastic cup and then hopefully go into production in it so that we can help revolutionize the world, save people's teeth, and save people with sore hands from hitting a couple hundred baseballs

from dropping glasses left and right and smashing their feet in the ground. A recipe for death would actually be a perfect name for our cookbook. We need to write that down. We need to remember. Circle back to it. Yeah, I have, well, I think we're all supposed

to do a blueprint under your guidance of the perfect cup. I have mine. I don't know if the two of you had time. I did. Gavin, do you have your drawing? Uh... Listen, he was very busy

with the videos. I'll be honest, there were two reasons. I was busy editing two videos at the same time, and also we talked about this in the lost episode, which is always between the one that came out and the one we're recording. So, completely forgot about it. Absolutely in one ear, out the other, that one.

That's fair. I remembered it. I woke up at 5am for a moment and thought cups and then went back to bed. So I too put this in last minute. I'll submit mine. We can talk about mine because I feel like I went against direction. Jeff, you asked for something simple. Which last minute. I'll submit mine. We can talk about mine because I feel like I went against direction. Jeff, you asked for something simple.

OK, which is fair. I understand that. But it was the perfect cup. So I wanted to illustrate in my head what I think the perfect cup is. And I'd love to hear your guys's suggestions and how you generally feel about it. This is the Gerpler. We're going to have to get it because some of the illustration is going to be tough to tough to. Oh, I posted in the is going to be tough to tough to.

Oh, I posted in the fucking I'm in Slack for some reason. Let me go to Discord. Whoops. Gerpler. OK, here we go. Oh, my. Oh, my God. So we got the Gerpler.

I understand this is a complicated thing to decipher. So we're going to go piece by piece for it. So we got. What does that by piece for it. So we got... What does that look like to you, Jeff? It looks like a bat monster with one tooth. It looks like a Venus flytrap with a rash. So it's very tough to convey when you have ideas for both the top of the cup

and the bottom and the side. It's tough to get the angle of trying to display in a flat scenario. Yeah, yeah. What angle is that? So we're going to start. It's an angle that doesn't actually exist. So what you're looking at at the very top,

first of all, the lines in the circle. Non-Euclidean cup. Are you talking about the barbed wire around the edge the barbed wire around the edge with the lines coming out of it that's a little parachute we have a little parachute on top of the glass in the event that you drop the glass it will just softly float down because to me the perfect cup as somebody who knocks over a lot of cups the perfect cup is a cup that can be covered in any scenario and you maintain at least we're going to do a 50 beverage guarantee that you will not lose more than half of your drink so the top part if you get outside on a windy day see you later well we're not done there's no protection mechanisms

built into this thing so we got a little parachute on the top. Now what's in the circle? You're looking at the top of the glass. You see that little tooth that you said? Yeah. That is a piece of plastic that you would spin around like a full circle, and that would seal the top of the glass just so you're safe. You don't have to worry about.

So if it tips over, there's a lock in place. Okay. I think I place. Okay. I think I see what, okay. It's a spinning, like, mechanism, like,

you just grab the top of it, and you tilt it, and the whole thing would, like, spiral out, and fully cover the glass, and, like,

lock in on the other side. Jeff knows what you mean. I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. So, you know, like, when you fan a deck of cards, Gavin?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like that, but it's, so that's the base part, and you'd fan it across the top of the glass. That's cool.

So that's the idea. Because you don't want it fully fanned because you need to fill the glass. So it needs to just be a small piece that you could fan out once it's locked in. Yeah. There's a little hole below that on the side for your straw. This would be a straw-designed product.

Okay. You have a straw there. Then you have all the edges shooting out the side. That is in the event that you knock over the glass and you do not have the top sealed. If there's not falling, if the parachute can't help, if you're just on a counter and you knock it over, those will prevent it from going fully flat.

That will keep it at an angle. You're going to lose some beverage, but we're maintaining a 50% beverage guarantee with these little arms on the side just to carry it. But if the parachute doesn't kick in from counter height, when would the parachute be useful? No, I think it would from counter height, but sometimes you knock a cup over and it doesn't fall. It lands on the counter, is what I'm saying. So this is a scenario in which it doesn't go past the counter.

It just gets caught on it. So it's got like guard wings. Yeah, essentially. It's like guard wings. It's a great way. Guard wings, we're going to trademark that. We got guard wings all over it. Makes sense.

What does it say in the middle? Iron hole. What does it say that you've scribbled on it? Oh, that was straw hole. Yeah, and then I decided to color it in. So then the last part, and this is a key part, and this is more just fun because you want a glass to be fun four tiny retractable wheels on the bottom because you never like if

you're at a table like from hot wheels oh like yeah like little hot wheels wheels so it's just you know i'm having you know i'm enjoying myself a nice frozen pineapple lemonade right now. If we were at a table and Gavin was like, hey, I want to try that, just pop the glass down, the wheels come out, and I just push it over. Don't have to get up, don't have to move, don't have to do anything. Just slides across.

You see those scenes at the bar where they throw the glass down? That's always seemed dangerous. I don't trust that. Got to put some wheels on that. The wheels, it'll go even further, and then you just push it down, the wheels go back up. like landing gear it's they retract up into the liquid uh they retract into so there'd be kind of a thicker part of the bottom of the glass that it would retract into

they would not be they'd be like a space between it would not go into the liquid now is it dishwasher safe it is dishwasher safe of course it is the parachute as well uh we're you know we got to look into that i'm not sure i'm not sure about that process then we got to narrow down the material to use it for the parachute but outside of the cup itself maybe we could sell multiple parachutes we could do fun little designs in the top so you can upsell that's a great that's yeah exactly so when they're drinking out of it does the parachute just hang down by the glass uh yeah yeah the parachute just hangs just a little hang a little hang off the back but the straw is on the opposite side so you don't have to worry about the parachute no straws included you're gonna have to buy that independent i'm

impressed i think that's a great design it's uh the opposite of what I had envisioned, but I love it. I appreciate the ingenuity. You've definitely added a lot to the cup. I'd love to know what that means. What is the opposite of that cup? Well, I'll show you. I mean, if it had a, uh, it's, it is, it is, it, I mean,

if it had a, if it had a USB port, it would be perfect. That way you can, that way you could be a smart cup and you could keep data on like how cold your beverage usually is, how many sips you take, how far it fell, how far it fell, distance traveled,

all that stuff. USB fridge? There's like a us it's a us there it's a bullshit product that like works but it's pointless it's like a little usb fridge that can chill one drink that's what makes this cup solar powered cup with a usb in it you plug the usb fridge into the cup you put the cup in the fridge it freezes it's this is genius jeff that's this is a great idea by you. Well, I love it. I think it's great.

I would love to get a prototype built out. I don't know if you're up for that. What's the name of it? The Gerpler. Oh, the Gerpler. The Gerpler. Okay, just straight up Gerpler. It's going to... The name came before the cup.

The name is non-negotiable. It's the Gerpler no matter what. They're all the Gerpler. The final form of the cup. Yeah, it's-negotiable. It's the Gerpler, no matter what the final form of the cup is. Yeah, it's a Gerpler regardless. So what's yours, Chad? Oh, yeah, let me show you mine. I'm a little, it's not, you know, it's not that one, that's for sure. So mine is, I kind of went back to, so mine is, you know,

I said that I thought the red Pizza Hut cup was damn near perfect, but you said any cup we had had to be larger, so I thought the Pizza Hut cup is a great cup, and you can see here the illustration. There's one holding in someone's hand to give you a scale. I took that cup, and I made it bigger, and then I slapped, and you can see on the side there, it says much bigger.

Did you purchase it? It's much bigger. Did it not go into the? No. Oh, okay. Sorry, there it is. There we go. So you can see on the left, that's a great cup.

That is your standard Pizza Hut cup. It's red. It's plastic. It's awesome. Then on the right, you can see best cup. I mean, I didn't put Gerbler, but obviously it's the Gerbler. It's the same cup, but much larger. And I put a face logo on it.

That's that way people know where it came from. Yeah, I would buy this cup. This looks like a great cup. It's a. There's no wheels on it. I was. You're right. I was thinking about putting.

Honestly, I was thinking about putting a racing stripe down or something on it to add a little pizzazz, but then I decided not to. I didn't want to overcomplicate it, but I'm glad I didn't go that route because you took those ideas and you put wheels on yours. Insane. So these are two variations on a theme. I think they're both valid. I think that they

both have their pluses. I think if the business world has shown us one thing it's there's nothing better than taking somebody's else's idea and just making it slightly larger and then putting our brand like that's a great this is that this works well to be fair this one is much bigger I don't know if you can it is it's completely different. How big is much bigger? I don't know.

The scale of the hand. You can see it's exactly that much bigger. I don't know. The scale of the hand. It's not on a hand. I was just curious if you had... Well, I know, but it's just... It's a weird way to phrase it.

You're assuming it's the same hand. Those could be two different hands. It's the same hand. I got it from the same image. Okay. It could be... The left could be Andre the Giant's same hand. Those could be two different hands. It's the same hand. I got it from the same image. Okay. It could be, the left could be Andre the Giant's hand and the right could be Vern Troyer's hand.

It's not though. For the purposes of the, it's the same hand. It's the exact same hand. It's an important clarification. I even copied and pasted it. It was so the same. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. uh yeah yeah yeah exactly eric just posted two photos of like visualizations of our ideas my inspiration was 100 the simpsons car he even mentioned that at a time i did yeah he said he was gonna such thisch the scar of this cup. You definitely did. You definitely did. Oh, man. We closed some threads on that episode.

We closed some threads. Great. And Andrew was talking about, like, this was up there. Andrew was talking to me yesterday about how, expressing some frustration. He's looking for bits to pull to be animated.

And he was saying the difficult thing about it with our podcast is how they flow from episode to episode. So it's hard to tell a contained story. Um, and then he pointed out one episode where I, Oh, time to feed the dog. I would have thought,

uh, I would have thought it was 12 episodes worth of material. And he was like, Nope, that was all in one episode. Hard to believe that we had the entirety of cup theory, the introduction of the face cooks, the food to wildly different cups, the baseball signature and the completion of the beanhole saga or this iteration of it. And and the teasing of Gavin's pizza recipe all in one episode. This one was packed.

We completed it all in this episode. And it was a fantastic. I genuinely have a headache from laughing. Trying to source this is a nightmare. We talked about the baseball thing and probably like three minute chunks over 12 different episodes. How long ago did we start talking about that too i would love to know that what is the first mention of the bat i remember it when you brought it up but i don't know i feel like it was months if it was after episode 46 there's no way to know right i'm gonna cut together like full saga videos for our youtube channel from like the introduction the idea to

the end of each random thing we end up doing i think it'll be a fun little compilation i yeah that'd be great i'll do that after i'm finished with the other yeah hopefully by the time this is out you'll be able to see uh definitely the baseball video on youtube on our face channel and hopefully also the beanhole saga amazing well Gavin was so dejected we were walking off the baseball field he was he was like I gotta cut I gotta go through two hours of baseball footage I mean between

the baseball and the beanhole and all the baseball stuff I had two cameras going and my phone was in slow-mo I've got about four and a half hours of footage oh man that's so much dumbest stuff. We need to do a face hires an editor. I mean, not that we don't have Nick.

Face hires a supplemental video editor. That'd be amazing. Eric, get the credit card. You got it. I'll hire an editor with the credit card. In all seriousness thanks to eric and gavin and nick for devoting time on their weekend to hitting balls and eating beans and uh you guys were wonderful and i'm happy that we in the rearview mirror it was a ton of fun but it was also your weekend and nick was ignoring his wife and child for it and i i know i know that caused a lot of strain, but it was also your weekend and Nick was ignoring his wife and child for it. And I know

I know that caused a lot of strain on his relationship and I'm not even sure if he's sleeping at home yet. So I appreciate you. Appreciate you taking that bullet and that'll do it for another episode of the face podcast. See you next time. And

do you have any ideas? What? It was strong. It was a strong episode up until that. I don't know. I'm tired. If you have any ideas on how to improve our bean hole, uh,

let us know if you're interested in buying some of our cups, let us know. And, uh, look out for autographed baseballs on sale soon. We've got a hundred more. If you have an idea on what we should do with the final 100. Maybe it's just a different color.

I don't know. Let us know. Remember, as always, give us 1 million stars anywhere you have an opportunity to. Thank you very much. Bye. Hey, guys. Minor League fan Jack here with a look at next week's episode of F*** Face. Once again, the boys are behind, so here are some predictions for the future.

Jeff peed himself on stage. Gavin can't control his cats. It's the return of Piss Boy. The gang decides to open a restaurant. Jeff loves r slash place. And once again, Andrew does not eat the pencil. All that and more on next week's episode of F*** Face.
