This is a Rooster Teeth production. anything cold? Well, it's one of those fancy metal fridges where nothing sticks to it on purpose.
And it's not supposed to get smudgy or dirty or anything.
Wait, you bought a fridge that doesn't let stagnant?
No, no, no, no.
No. I did not buy a fridge.
I bought a house that contained a fridge.
Oh. I did not buy this fridge.
I would not have bought this
400 year old
GE monogram monster of a fridge that's not quite as big as most of those cool walk-in deep freezer fridges that you see in fancy houses, but definitely bigger than a normal one in just the right way so that there's only seven models on Earth.
And replacement parts for my fridge are impossible because it hasn't been made in 25 years.
I would not do that.
I agree.
Hey, Gavin, did you know that Jeff didn't buy his fridge?
It came with a house.
Episode 106.
Go ahead.
Huh.
Okay.
Did you buy your fridge, Gav, or did you buy a house that had a fridge in it?
House had a fridge.
Yeah.
I wouldn't.
And my point being, I understand that by buying the house, I bought the fridge, but I didn't
buy the fridge.
I didn't set out to get this fucking fridge.
If I had, I would deserve every bit of Schadenfreude coming my way.
But I didn't.
I bought a house.
I had no idea that the house was going to contain a lemon fridge.
Well, I mean, I assume you walked through the house.
I'm sure you realize what the fridge situation is.
What's he going to do?
Say no to the fridge?
Yeah, I hadn't had any time with him.
That would actually be really funny.
I didn't know it yet.
When you, like, close out a house, it would be a very funny specific request of, to the fridge yeah and i hadn't any time with it that would actually i didn't know it yet when you
like close on a house it'd be a very funny specific request of i want you to take the
fridge with you i will only i will only buy this home if you take the fridge i will uh i will also
say this is going to sound like uh this is not it's not it's not how it's going to sound cooler
than how it went down but i actually did buy the house without walking through it first. I was on vacation in Mexico
when it went for sale.
And the moment it went for sale,
Emily saw it and said,
look at this house.
And I called my agent and I said,
put an offer on that house.
So I had put an offer on the house
a week before I saw it.
Well, I feel like I have less sympathy for you
now than if you would have went in
and evaluated the fridge.
You bought a house unseen.
You have to, like,
that's part of the process.
I've bought TVs where I've been to Best Buy like 10 or 11 times before I
pulled the trigger on it.
And you just go to a place you got to live.
Listen,
listen,
if the,
if the Austin TV market was anything like the Austin housing market,
I would take that criticism.
However, I would, market was anything like the austin housing market i would take that criticism however i went i tried
to buy 10 or 11 houses that were taken away from me by richer people that by the time i got this
house i was desperate i was desperate i had to extend my lease in the part in the place downtown
an extra eight months because i couldn't find a fucking house that's not true i found a ton of
houses i found so many houses i couldn't get anybody to sell them to me. I remember being really mad at myself when I
bought my first house and I didn't check the attic. Like I didn't go up into the ceiling
and I was like, how, how did I buy a house with basically without looking at one of the rooms?
I was like, I can't believe I did that. But I guess it's not a common thing to walk a house
or go to an open house and climb into the loft. No don't you i've never bought a home but i feel like don't you hire the guy that
inspects everything and i feel like that's his job to do that it's just yeah it that guy looks
for problems but it's like i didn't i didn't really even know if there was a space like you
know you can get like a an attic that has like it's full of insulation and you can't really put
anything in there and some are just like completely unfinished and you can fall through the floor it's like that was an unknown
after i had the keys and i felt i felt pretty dumb for that what you're saying is there needs
to be a second guy that's just purely there to evaluate vibes you got the guy that's there for
problems and then you have like a vibe inspector i want to be a vibe inspector so bad oh vibe
inspector would be great. Not to
pivot away from this great house conversation, when's the
last time you went into a Best Buy to
look at TVs? I was thinking
about this recently. I bought
six months ago. I bought a new TV
six months ago. Really? Do they still have
the TV section of a Best
Buy or any of those places to
me feels like the used
car salesman area of the store where
there's always the insane gimmick tv that they have for display and that is part of the experience
of walking the store it's like for a time it was 3d then it was curved like i don't know what the
current tv gimmick is but i'm sure that station still exists i feel like it's important to walk
the tv floor because i feel like for me, I've always stood in the middle.
I've always been like, I need to get middle of the range.
I don't want the dog shit, but I'm not going to, you know, I'm not going to pull the trigger on a five figure television.
You know, it's all like the home theater top end.
So it's like I need to know where I stand in the scale by just looking at them and then I'll go and buy it somewhere else.
That makes sense.
Interesting.
Why do you buy it somewhere else?
Oh, yeah, that's a great question.
Just easier, isn't it i mean you're already there looking at it i don't i can't think of what would be easier than telling the person i like this tv i'm just gonna buy it from you
right now it seems a lot harder or more effort to go i like this tv a lot i'm gonna go home and
then find another place to buy it well chances are it's probably cheaper somewhere else and also
i have to if i buy it there i've got to take it then i i've got like put it. Well, chances are it's probably cheaper somewhere else. And also I have to, if I buy it there, I've got to take it. Then I have to like put it. No,
I'm going to put it in someone's car. I am with Gavin fully. The last TV I bought,
they brought it home and installed it for me for free. All right. That's, you know what? That's
fair. I think you're probably right. I think Gavin and I are just ignorant to it. I'm going through
an experience right now where I'm looking at buying like a deck chair or a couch for the deck. And I
kind of want to do it on Amazon just because I know it'll get here. But I plan on going to other
places to look at like what's available in the market. But I have no plans on buying it outside
of Amazon. But if I can schedule that. Also, it's a weird issue for me where I don't trust they'll
find my door. So maybe that's specific to my living living situation but also andrew i completely and
totally agree with you about the tv section of best buy it feels like and i don't know if this
is a reference you'll even understand but it feels like the spiritual successor uh to circuit city
which was a store from a different different age yeah that's well we had best buy was kind of a
later edition we had future shop in canada originally but i feel like all those stores have to be united in the tv that costs
way too much money with the shitty couch that's set up in front of it and then trying to convince
you that this is the future well there's no way it will be yeah i like that nick saying it's
apparently the picture frame tv i have never looked at a tv and thought i wish this didn't
look like a tv that's such a strange gimmick for me I totally buy I'm totally into that
picture on TV idea are you lately because that picture frame looks it that
like Nick says it looks great looks there's a TV you have to keep on is
that what it is I mean no I just think it's supposed to look like you're it's
supposed to be classy it's supposed to be like look at our
lecture frame what do you turn it off it looks like an empty frame you know where I mean, no, I just think it's supposed to look like, it's supposed to be classy. It's supposed to be like, look at this picture frame.
When you turn it off, it looks like an empty frame?
You know where you can check one out?
No, you have like a screen saver going,
so it looks like a painting or something.
Yeah, so you never center it.
Right, so you keep it on.
Sure.
That just seems a little wasteful.
If I'm not in the room, I don't need it to look like art.
Yeah, I guess.
But it's nice to hide a TV which looks like a big fucking, like, I don't know it to look like art. Yeah, I guess. But it's nice to hide a TV
which looks like a big fucking...
I don't know.
I get it.
I'm totally pro.
As a matter of fact,
if you go into the STF office
at the day job,
they have one.
I mean, they made it themselves.
It's not like a purchased one.
But it looks great.
It looks fucking great.
Why do you want to hide the TV?
It's like,
what's the financial going to point at?
It looks fancier.
It looks like it's pointing
at a cool piece of art.
Or like a picture of your granddad. I feel like you need a specific outlet situation too,
because no picture frame has a cord that just runs through the bottom.
Like as soon as you get cords in, the illusion is ruined.
Well hopefully if you're putting a TV on the wall, you're hiding the cables.
Well the power outlets, they're always low.
I very rarely see a mid-level power outlet.
I feel like you got to reach for that.
You can't go wireless on the power
outlet. What happened to those TVs
by the way just playing a film or
something? Like something that I'd actually watch.
When do you buy a TV and think
I'm gonna watch some extremely high
frame rate apples
bounce off a wet table? Like nobody's
watching that. It's all
like demo footage.
What's something real on there? you had me at apples honestly i feel like i remember it always being weird action movies
like ultraviolet like a movie nobody would actually sit down and watch or buy but like
it's hd we'll buy this somebody was convinced to buy a curve tv because of ultraviolet and what a
mistake that was on several fronts.
Not a fan of the curve?
I just, I've never experienced it.
And I don't trust that it in any way makes the experience better.
I do feel like the curve fad is over.
Yes.
I feel like it's over for TVs, but it's still around for monitors.
Because I, oh yeah, that would make sense.
I do, I was about to say i just
looked over to the right and i do have a curved monitor so i guess i'm into curved monitors but
i only got it because alfredo told me to buy it what about curved fridge dude i would like any
fridge just i'll take any fridge i wanted to feel like my fridge is hugging me i want the doors to
come out wide want to wrap around Well, you bought your house without
going inside. Would you recommend
that as a process?
It worked out well for me. I mean, eventually
I did. So basically the way it works, if you
don't know how to buy a house or how one buys a house,
if you see a house you like, you put down
earnest money. And it basically is like, I'm
going to put down like 500 bucks or whatever.
And then I have like an option period
where if I just change my mind within the seven day option period, I get my 500 bucks or whatever and then i have like an option period where if i just change
my mind within the seven day option period i get my 500 bucks back no big deal if i don't uh then
i gotta buy the house and if i back out later then they get the 500 bucks it's like an insurance to
keep people from uh just like i don't know like claiming houses they don't like i'm gonna i'm
gonna put money down on these seven houses and then i'll buy one of them although i assume people
do that you weren't fully committed yeah so i put the earnest money down on these seven houses, and then I'll buy one of them. Although I assume people do that. You weren't fully committed.
Yeah, so I put the earnest money down,
and I entered the option period.
And then when I got home from my vacation,
I immediately went and looked at the house.
And then I walked to the house,
and I was totally on board at that point.
So it's like making a reservation,
like a paid reservation.
Yeah, it's like a paid reservation.
There you go.
Got it.
Interesting.
I guess we started the podcast at some point.
Oh, intro.
No, I mean, I think Eric did the intro this week,
but I didn't realize we'd even started.
Did you guys have any,
what do you guys want to talk about today?
I had one situation that happened
where, you know, like those things were like,
it felt very face
where I was just doing a pretty casual thing
and then it escalated into much worse to like a dumb dilemma.
I guess first the story begins.
I fell down the stairs and not many.
I fell down.
Hold on.
Are you OK?
Yeah.
My legs were.
I fell down a stair.
Stairs is an exaggeration.
I fell down a stair stairs is an exaggeration
I was trying to step
I was trying to step around my cat when I had a bunch
of things in my hands and I was unsuccessful
and my cat is totally fine
but I was not I had both legs
were very sore so this
was like a few days
and hurt your legs
yeah like I landed weirdly
and then I hurt my one leg
and then i was over
compensating on the other leg because of that leg which then resulted in both legs being sore
but it's fine now did you stumble and then catch yourself or did you go down i stumbled and then i
kind of like landed into the couch so it wasn't the worst thing but it was really the stumble was
the issue for the the leg that was hurt and then resulted in a double you can make it from the stairs to the couch
like just jumping it's it's very narrow i mean when you guys are here you'll see it's not much
of a distance it was like i kind of fell forward i got like one step forward and i could make it
largely to the couch um it's a small room that that walk-in area it's a weird this house is
shaped so weird i can't wait for you guys to see it i cannot wait to see it there's no way it's a small room that that walk-in area it's a weird this house is shaped so weird i can't wait for you guys to see it i cannot wait to see it there's no way it's gonna meet my my mental
picture i think you're living in like a spiral shoe or something so i had that happen and i
hurt both my legs and i couldn't sleep i was having terrible do you uh do you need me to
send you more bubble wrap are you running low no i'm more bubble wrap? Are you running low? No, I'm good. Bubble wrap honestly would have been helpful,
but no, I'm fine, thanks.
So I was like, I can't sleep.
My legs feel really tight.
I'm gonna have a nice bath,
and I'm just gonna rest.
I'm gonna enjoy this,
and just maybe it'll loosen up my legs a little bit.
So I have a bath.
It's now 3 a.m., and my bath is also is also shockingly a weird shape there's a
little shelf on the side of it but it's super narrow and it's filled with
shampoo bottles that my partner uses and one of them is fucking massive is like a
brick so and I always knock them over constantly but it's 3 a.m. I don't want
to alert or disturb anybody so I'm climbing out of the bath and as I'm
climbing out of the bath in complete darkness i go a little too far back and i feel my ass hit all three of the bottles
mainly one we have one that's like center with my ass and the other i just know we're there
so i'm like oh fuck what do i do so i hold this like kind of crouch position and then i pin all
three like i'm a wrestler i'm putting all my pressure on my ass on these bottles on the wall and i slowly reach around to try to grab what i can
so i'm able to grab two of the three the other one is like center with my ass and so i grab them
and as long as it's the brick one like one of the two i'm good i can let the other ones fall it
won't be like a fucking stone being thrown through like it's so loud whenever it falls so i pull pull the other two forward and it's the two small ones like of course it's the
two small ones so i'm like fuck i can't reach this i'm gonna knock this like what do i do
it's in the middle of my ass so after a few minutes i decide i think i can clench this
this is a heavy weight come on but I think I think I can do this
because I don't know what else to do I don't want to make a loud
noise so I clench
I clench the brick
as hard as I can
I'm just squeezing so hard and
I'm so nervous that if I move away
from the wall at all it will
fall and just everything will crash and it
will be pointless so I squeeze
and I slowly inch away
and as i inch nothing's falling so i feel great about it and then i put my hand back and i don't
feel the bottle so i think holy shit i've actually clenched this thing now what do i do because i
have the tallest tub in the world it's like doing a fucking you say you can't tell whether something's
clenched in your ass or not i am clenching
feel with your hand no i was no i was feeling back because i was clenched so hard and i had
been in the tub like i just didn't have i didn't trust myself it was the dark i was so paranoid
i just couldn't tell i was nervous i was clenching harder than anyone's ever clenched before gavin
this is a tight this is an anaconda like grip in my ass with this bottle
so I'm squeezing and then I'm stuck because I can't get over the top I'm thinking like if I
lift my leg I will undeniably release clench and I can't like it falling at that point so I stood
at 3 a.m I'm standing naked in my bathroom in the dark with a shampoo bottle clenched between my ass
wondering how am I going to get out of this so I start I decide I just have to go for it and hope
it's one of those large L'Oreal bottles.
I really didn't want it.
I would feel so bad if I woke someone up.
So I hunch over.
I get low.
And I start lifting my leg.
And every inch, my heart is racing faster and faster.
Because this bottle is going to fucking fall.
This bottle is going to fall.
It's going to fall.
And I eventually get halfway over.
And the clench is so loose, and no noise has happened.
I'm like, there's no fucking way that I clenched this thing.
It would have fallen by now.
So I just step over, and I turn the light on.
It's just on the wall.
I never had it.
I just stood for like five minutes clenching my ass in my bath for no reason terrified that i was gonna drop this thing
that was never there i think when i i think when i pressed what i did like the wrestler press on
the wall i just pushed it into a place where it wouldn't fall like it was fine and so i did all
that process for nothing there was no issue of it falling. I was all good.
So now I'm like, I'm a fucking idiot, but at least I could talk about this on the show.
So I sit at my desk and I have a drink and I'm like kind of laughing about what has just
happened.
You know, those like little those like grocery bags that are they're like cloth, like they're
super light, they're small or whatever.
Yeah, I'm like, I'm going to go into bed now, but I have one of those in my way.
I'm just going to get rid of this. I i'm just gonna throw it out of my path so i grab it and throw it without like
it's one solid motion and i remember i put a heavy candle in the bag earlier that day so after all
that effort i threw a fucking candle against the wall immediately and it just rattled out like all of that it was so fucking
loud i did all that effort to be quiet realized how dumb i was sat down and then just threw a
heavy candle at the wall immediately by accident so that was my weekend that was sunday i want to
say i that was a highly entertaining story but the most entertaining might have been listening to gavin absolutely losing what would you have done in that situation gavin i guess i mean i think i probably would have
navigated it more uh sveltely than that but uh i i guess i wouldn't i guess you could have just
clinched it all the way to the bed and just gone to sleep with a shampoo bottle in your butt. I mean, I would never go that far.
As soon as I was out of the tub, I was actually a thought I had of how do I if this is clenched in my ass, how do I drop this?
Like, do I have to go to the bed and then release there?
What is the quietest mechanism for doing it?
In other situations, I have a great awareness of what is and is not in my ass.
But it was just the stakes were high, Gavin. Well well i mean think about it it's pitch black you're in pain it's
three in the morning you're half asleep you've been in the water for a while this you're essentially
coming out of a sleep deprivation tank or a sensory deprivation tank right so you're probably
all discombobulated right now yeah i had that happen recently i fell asleep in the tub like
sometimes i'll fall asleep
and have, like, a little 30-minute nap.
How can one person have... We could
write a book with stories from that
single room. It's, like, the
most important place in your entire life.
I can't believe we're still
learning more about the bathtub.
Like, I thought we understood
everything there was to know about the bathtub. Yeah, I didn't even know about
the shelf. And that it's taller.
But wait, are you saying, like, we can have you go in there now
and shove the L'Oreal in your ass and see if you can feel the difference?
I definitely could feel the difference in this context.
Do you want me to drop the L'Oreal like it normally would
and see if it comes across?
I could do that.
It's fucking loud.
Drop it from your ass cheeks, though.
We should do a... do that. It's fucking loud. Drop it from your ass cheeks, though.
We should do a...
Maybe should is not the right word.
We could do like an ass
Olympics where we all stick shampoo
bottles in our butts and then we see
who can walk the farthest. Do the obstacle course?
How many flights of stairs you can do? It sounds like it'd go
well. Why is Andrew yelling, oh no?
It didn't go well for him. Probably could shot
fucking shampoo all over his house
do you think from his ass do you think if it wasn't his ass he tells his partner that shampoo
was up his ass or does he just pretend maybe it's like uh maybe it's like the way it works in my
house and my girlfriend finds out when if and when she listens to the podcast what when her stuff's
been in your ass yeah like, like when it has anything.
Did that come through at all?
Yeah, it was great.
So I went to tilt my mic
so it would be facing more with the bathroom,
but it's on this stand.
I'm on a shitty little table,
and the mic is too heavy for the table
if you put it at a different angle,
so I twisted it and the whole table started to fall over.
So I was trying to juggle the table.
So that wasn't the sound of shampoo?
Well, there was a second sound after that. I don't know if that
picked up. Oh, okay. I'm unsure.
It was very loud, though. Anyway,
I fell asleep
in the tub recently.
And typically, if I have a little nap,
it'll be like 30 minutes.
Nice little 30-minute rest
of soaking or whatever.
I fell asleep and I was in there for six hours.
I woke up.
It was six hours later.
Wasn't it freezing?
I was not cold.
The issue was my feet were in incredible pain.
They pruned so hard.
At first, I was like, this is fine.
I'm going to be like, this is a little annoying. maybe I go back to sleep is get you another hour but the pruning was so
bad I was like nah I should really I surely I need to deep ruin so like I got
out of the bath and my foot was they were both super pruned and not good they
hurt so much and so I'm like googling what is going on I learned that there's a thing called
trench foot but I don't think I had that
it'd be the least
deserved way of getting trench foot
you can't get trench foot
that fast I don't know
it's all extended but that's just what I was trying to find
so they depruned throughout the day
trench foot is a
bathroom
that happens that was like shit that
happened to soldiers in world war one
man why i searched my feet are very
ruined i was trying to determine how
long it would take for the deep room
dad so you were you just too scared to
stand on the pruning no i stood and it
hurt a lot on both feet like every step
hurt and then i was laying in bed and
it still hurt.
They were still, the prune hurt.
Do you think you weighed like 50 pounds more
from all the water that seeped into it?
I don't know.
Why are my legs so heavy?
Oh, they're too hydrated.
The important thing to remember
with the shampoo bottle story,
you're going back because you're judging me on that, Gavin.
You fell down the stairs recently, or a stair recently recently you gotta remember your mobility is not a hundred percent
your legs are sore it's like you got two clamps on your feet right your movement is restricted i
mean that's fair so are you walking around okay how are how are we doing are you able to get out
to the bagel shop yeah i'm good they decided to take a long weekend on sunday and i was like i'm gonna go on sunday and because it's monday was a day off today or yesterday in canada so they gave
their staff a long long weekend which is awesome it's so well deserved but i was it has become
wednesday through sunday have become my favorite days of the week just because it means i can go
to that shop i love it so much it's great so it was it was uh unfortunate to be like oh no i can't
go tomorrow i plan on going on Sunday
But outside of that I'm good go to the bagel shop. I'm all set about ready for that marathon
Uh you know we still get a few weeks left in the redemption year. This is 106 right?
Still got his legs on the draining board
Speaking of redemption year man the comment leavers are loving you right now for the Greg thing.
Yeah, I saw somebody.
I thought they made such a funny comment.
I wish I remembered who did it.
But someone said the person that said that saying Greg from finance is not the same as Greg in accounting.
I think I flipped it there.
But Greg in accounting, not the same as Greg in finances, like saying the answer wasn't Superman.
It's Kal-El.
I thought that was very funny.
I read that one.
The one that I was going gonna point out and why sometimes I
really love the comment leavers there
were two comments this week that just I
wrote down on my phone because I loved
him so much one was a person who said in
the podcast Eric mentioned we need a
stronger verb than salad creaming I I
propose we call it Gregging which I
fucking love like you've really fucked
up if you Greg something yeah and the other one that
was funny which was totally different but uh somebody said we should make an alexa prayer
candle which i thought was pretty funny that is i there was one other comment i saw where somebody
brought up that like yeah my brother used to invent rules as we went so he wouldn't lose and
i was like i didn't do that i just didn't vocalize them
like i see where you're coming from that's that was my fault i should have i should have been
clear from the beginning that's where i fucked up i understand like the foster and like the oh
which way do i go with this but i feel like everyone would have gone the other way
i think i think a different day i would have but I had spent so much time the night before
thinking about how long should I give you guys?
How this will be, like, maybe we'll amp it up a little bit.
This will be exciting down the stretch,
and you just got it immediately, instantly.
I was not prepared.
I did not consider this possibility.
It was a very good hint.
I got a text today from our friend James Buckley,
who listens to this podcast.
Oh, does Buckley listen to this podcast?
Yeah, yeah.
He was in the in-betweeners.
And he just texted me today saying, what is Andrew Panton?
Well, that's what we've been trying to figure out for 106 fucking episodes.
And I know we're getting closer.
Oh, God. that's what we've been trying to figure out for 106 fucking episodes and i don't know really closer oh god oh man i did something today if you guys don't mind i did something today that i haven't done in a really long time it almost feels like too long when i realized how long
it had been since it happened uh it's sock related no no. Bicycle related. Oh, bike related.
That was a great guess, Gavin.
You're good at guesses.
Was it Gentle Ghost?
No, but I did wreck my bike today.
I haven't wrecked my bike in so fucking long.
And I did today for sure.
Time out.
Is this the new bike that you've been waiting months for?
No, no, no, no.
I don't have the new bike yet.
No.
Okay.
It's an important clarification.
The way it worked is, you know,
I had all those issues with my bike.
It was exploding on me and stuff.
And that's why I bought a... Eric's like, I saw you four hours ago.
Well, two hours ago, I was on the ground.
Well, actually, I wasn't on the bike.
So, uh...
Did you get your mittens knocked back?
Between...
No, no mitten knocking.
I'm fucking great.
I feel great. Well, well, well, okay knocking. I'm fucking great. I feel great.
Well, well, well, okay.
So I'm a little sore in the shoulder and neck area
from the wrenching,
but I don't have any scrapes or anything
because I pulled it off quite well.
But anyway, yeah, no, Andrew,
so I bought that new bike in like January or whatever,
so sure, of course, I don't have it yet.
And when I called to find out when I would get it,
they were basically like,
go fuck yourself, we'll give it to you when we feel like so I don't know it sometime around
that hopefully but before I get the fridge I'll get uh the new bike so uh yeah I I the goal when
I bought the new one was that like I just won't ride this other bike that has tried to kill me a
few times but then when my butt stopped hurting and I honestly I started to put on the some weight
for being too idle.
I was like, I dusted off the bike and got it working again.
And it's been a really reliable bike to this point.
Today, I was just like, it was one of those times where I was going down the hike and
bike trail and it's like gravel, you know?
And I just caught an edge.
I wasn't going fast.
I was going like maybe 14 miles an hour.
I caught an edge and I was just like about to turn right into a street.
And then suddenly the bike,
I just looked down and I felt the bike get taken away from me and everything would happen in slow motion.
And the,
my handlebars kept going further and further out.
And then the next thing I knew I was just running with the handlebars and
then the handlebars just got taken away from me.
And then I just kept running and I never fell down.
The bike slid across the street and I just kept running.
And then I just did a little turnaround and I went back over to pick my bike up like fucking
cool as shit.
And I look up and there are five people on bicycles staring at me and I go, oh, hey.
And one of the guys goes, that was really fucking cool.
And I go, oh, thanks.
Yeah, it worked out OK.
And the other one was like wow
that was almost bad and then they just rode away and i just got on my bike and i kept riding
play i couldn't do it on purpose in a million tries i couldn't i couldn't pull it off
why is it that whenever you describe you on a bike i can never wrap my head around the physics of it
like when you were describing the jump like what everything you just said i don't know how i don't know what you said so i was riding and then the bike hit hit an edge of like gravel and
it just swung out from under me to the left and then the bike just went out in front of me and
then suddenly i just wasn't on it anymore i was just running like it fell out from under me
and uh have all of our animators animate what they think happened here's the weird thing right
i get back on my bike and i go and i'm riding it and i realize yeah i ripped it i mean i like
i really wrenched my shoulder on my neck so i assume i'll be miserable tomorrow but i'm you
know it's not bad yet and uh and i'm riding and i can't i can't explain it and i can't I can't point to how but my bike is better like I wrecked like the wreck tuned my
bike up it's like it was faster it was easier to pedal it was smoother it was it felt tight like
felt more fluid I don't know how to describe it other than the bike that I got back on
is probably 30 better than the bike I laid down.
And I did not hit my head, I promise.
Nick's asking if I hit my head.
I don't understand it.
But I was in disbelief.
I didn't trust it.
I was like, something clearly has been stretched
and is about to break because this feels too weird.
I checked all the gears and everything.
But no, this happened mile 12 of a 22 mile bike ride.
So I had another 10 miles and it just like,
it just, it was just great.
Like the bike is great now.
Do you think you accidentally swapped bikes
with one of the people who was watching?
That would be awesome.
Oh yeah, my bike's purple now.
It didn't, it used to be black.
I don't know why.
Do you think, Gavin, that any of the people
that observed Jeff doing this could describe it better than Jeff did?
Or would it be equally confusing if we heard their account of it?
Yeah, I think they could describe it better because I asked Jeff, I said to Jeff that I didn't understand it.
He explained it again in the exact same way.
My brain just immediately fills with like a Jackie Chan stunt.
Like Jeff starts it and then I just imagined it's Jackie Chan and it kind of makes sense in my head
man Jackie Chan's
coming for Keenan and Kel in most
mentions
oh yeah have you I never looked at that
I thought there was a list is it Keenan and Kel have
the most mentions oh is there a list
where's the list I think somebody there was like
a it was on the face subreddit
I saw like a celebrity mentions
yeah I thought you mentioned it in that context.
I did too.
That's why I'm not.
You just coincidentally mentioned.
Well,
there are some people who come up all the time and I just thought it's
probably Keenan and Caleb to this point,
but you didn't.
There was literally like a list that was posted a day before that was that
premise before you said it.
So I just assumed that you had looked at the list. No, yeah, I don't
use Reddit. Where is this? I want to see it.
I know.
I've been taking what you said
as fact, as like research fact,
not just that your gut, like, yeah.
That's wild. I was instantly
happy that you clicked on that list and you could
answer questions for us because I hadn't had a chance
to yet. That's incredible.

Actually, I have a question just before we pivot.
Gavin, what type
would you identify
the big bad wolf as a werewolf?
The big bad wolf from
Red Riding Hood? Yeah.
What do you think of them as a werewolf? I just thought it was a wolf.
You did? Okay. Well, that's
less. I was playing the Family Feud
game and the question was things
the wolf wouldn't want to find in the basket.
And I put silver bullets and I thought it was absurd that that was not on
the board.
And it then turned into a realization that I've just assumed it was a
werewolf.
This entire time.
Yeah.
That cause Jeff brought up a great point.
It talks.
So I've just kind of assumed,
I feel like that the wolf and the big bad wolf does not feel just like a big bad
wolf. Feels like a werewolf. Dude, it
talks, it stands on two feet, and it
dresses up in clothes and shit.
That is 100%
werewolf behavior, and I completely
support you in this. I just thought it was an
anthropomorphic wolf.
I've always thought werewolf.
It's wild to me that anyone would think
otherwise, but I guess that makes sense.
Eric is with Gavin.
I mean,
I get that it's a normal wolf,
but I can,
I completely can understand what,
where Andrew would get werewolf because the distinction is like,
I mean,
and to be honest,
who knows if there's a prequel to the story that explains that it is a
werewolf,
but I,
but so it sounds like we're two,
two.
So I would love to, Oh, nevermind. Nick answered normal talking wolf. All right. to the story that explains that it is a werewolf. So it sounds like we're 2-2.
Oh, never mind, Nick.
Answered. Normal talking wolf.
Alright, well you and I are on the losing side of this one.
What if Skyrim DLC was like a prequel to Red Riding Hood?
Or was the DLC
Vampire? I think werewolves were in the base game.
I don't know i never i
never played those guys ever got into you don't play scarum i played it a little bit i i just i
don't know the scene like the setting of it didn't didn't appeal to me at that time i'm sure if i
revisited it i'd have a lot more fun too cold too cold yeah why the same with fallout 3 i walked
out of the vault and i was like holy fuck this is there's a lot to do here. I can do any of it.
I don't want to do any of it because it's too big.
And then I just didn't play it again for like a year and a half.
And then I eventually gave it another try and I enjoyed it a lot.
I fell in love with that game, but I was so overwhelmed by the open world of it.
Oh, it's great.
I just don't.
The setting of Skyrim wasn't appealing to me, so it just it didn't.
It was overwhelming and I didn't really like the design of the world initially.
So I never got sucked into it.
But I'm sure, as I said,
if I revisited it,
I'd have a lot of fun.
I mean, it looks a lot better now
than it did then as well.
So maybe you'll just enjoy it more.
Yeah, maybe.
I feel like it's the game
that I started
and walked away from
the most of my life.
Like I've probably played
the first 10 hours of that game
15 times.
You're like, oh, I'm going to play it. I'm going to go through it this time. And you get into it like, yeah, this is fun oh I'm gonna play it I'm gonna go through it this time and you get into like yeah this is fun I remember
how to play it and then you set it down you come back like a week later and you're like how do
these controls work I gotta start over again god damn it yeah inventory games are hard to get back
to because you don't you have to you spend like the first hour looking through your own pockets
trying to remember where you got shit and what you were doing with it yeah that's I fell off
of Elden Ring I didn't play it for like three days in a row,
so that's impossible to play again.
Three days, that was it?
Yeah, I was like, oh, back to Gems of War.
Andrew, I have a question for you.
Okay.
When you fell asleep in the bath for six hours,
was your back wet?
Because sometimes you have that problem with the seal
where you dam up the back of the bath, right?
No, no, it was largely dry, I would say.
I was sitting upright.
I snugly put in.
It was a tight little squeeze.
It was good.
What if you drowned?
No, I physically couldn't for how the tub is and how I sit in it.
I'm telling you, it could not physically happen.
It's an impossibility that it would happen i bet we could drown you
i i you could drown me i could not drown myself for how i fall asleep in that tub
could not happen i've slept i have a long history of taking little naps in tubs
there are some dangerous ones for sure place to Oh, it's just so relaxing, though.
I mean, Gavin, you talk about how it's hard to visualize me falling, my bike falling out from under me. I have trouble understanding how Andrew is like maintaining a seal, sitting up, falling asleep, getting pickled toes.
Yeah, like how he's drown proof.
And shoving four shampoo bottles up his asshole all at the same time.
It's not four.
It was about the size of four.
I'll give you that.
I couldn't do four.
I think I could genuinely normal-sized L'Oreal bottles two and a half.
I think you could fit the L'Oreal bottle in your ass.
Oh, I could, without a doubt.
100% just by itself?
Yes.
Absolutely.
Because you're worth it.
See what you did there.
Put that in the joke book.
Do you still have your book?
I sure do.
I wish I knew where it was or else I'd read it.
I'd tell you some great joke that makes no sense.
We should have one joke from that book a year, I think.
One a year?
What would be the joke day?
What would be the thing that like, ooh, it's joke moment.
I feel like that has to be an event.
Like every certain episode per year.
What about after every redemption?
After every redemption year?
Are we saying there's multiple redemption years?
Well, every individual redemption.
Well, there has to be multiple redemption years actually
because you've not redeemed yourself on all the stuff that you were supposed to this year.
Because you didn't get it all done in the redemption year.
So we've got to have an extension.
And if I keep doing things like Gregreg and accounting i'm gonna have constantly new
things to redeem for like the list will just continue to build i'm not gonna run out of
things that require redemption based on my history with this show unfortunately unfortunately i agree
with it do you think do you think if we...
I may be designing in my head right now
a product for one,
but wouldn't it be cool if we had a sign
that said, like,
a blank number of days since your bike wreck,
and I could fill it in,
and I could add it up every day,
and then I could be like,
oh, I made it like 105 days before my next bike wreck.
You just designed our third sign.
But it's a very niche market.
After scrumping and propping.
It's just for people who wreck on their bicycle.
Maybe it doesn't have to be bicycle.
You could just say like an X number of days since last wreck.
I thought that you were talking about for you specifically.
As a thing that is made in a large extent.
You don't know. But for you, yes as a thing that is well i would like a large extent no but for you yes i think that is entertaining the only way i can get stuff made for me is by
tricking you guys into thinking it's a it's a worthwhile product for the company which by the
way i'd like to point out i don't know if you guys have seen jackass 4.5 yet have either of you seen
it yes i have uh totally this blame for andrew's blank days without salad creaming is fucking awesome.
And just an erasable marker.
Fucking, I feel so goddamn vindicated, Gavin, for the spicy icing.
There is a bit they do in Jackass 4.5 where they all put funnels in their assholes and they pour hot sauce in it.
So they all like ram hot sauce up their assholes.
Oh, because Steve-O has that sauce, doesn't he?
Yeah, it's Wee Man.
It is totally, it's Wee Man sauce.
It's Wee Man sauce.
And so then, to deal with the pain,
Johnny Knoxville hands out popsicles,
and they all shove popsicles up their ass,
and they all feel instantly better.
So it worked?
It absolutely worked.
But imagine, and that's
just a popsicle, that's
just sugar water.
Imagine, imagine like
the soothing, imagine a
soothing milky popsicle.
It'd be way better.
It's good for your skin,
good for your anal skin.
Well, maybe Andrew can
try it after he's had
all that shampoo held
up there, fella. Well, there's no spice. after he's had all that shampoo held up there, fella.
Well, there's no spice.
I don't know if you know
what a shampoo bottle is.
They're not spicy.
I've never dealt with spice.
Yeah, but it might give you irritation.
No.
It's probably not great
to have shampoo in your crap.
No, it's definitely not.
The clench was not great.
It was a serious clench.
I would have,
the things would have broken
in that clench.
It was like a vice.
It's like the scene in fucking Casino they they squeezed the guy's head as tight
I could be a Vaughn bit of Vaughn Wow fuck that up never mind. We're just gonna move on Vaughn
I said that a bond you could be a blonde phone. Yeah
Yeah, so excited to say villain that it Vaughn came out instead of bond and now we just move on because it wasn't even that
Great of a joke to begin with well. What could you crush? What could you destroy in your ass like define the first thing?
Just well or destroy. I know it crush
Define destroy it goes in
Good it comes out bad it goes in right it goes in normal comes out right like imagine a breadstick
Right you couldn't eat it after you crushed it in your normal and comes out right like imagine a breadstick right
you couldn't eat it after you crushed it in your ass so i think that'd be like step one okay i mean
i it would still be edible just you wouldn't want to what about the problem with my example
what about like like you know those uh you know those like christmas poppers where you pull up
both ends and like oh do you think you could put one end in your butt
and then the other end in Gavin's butt
and you guys could together pull it?
You could do anal tug of war.
We could.
If we did ass to ass with Christmas crackers,
I am completely convinced that we could pop that crack.
We'll see who wins the little set of screwdrivers,
the paper hat, and the joke.
Me or Andrew's butt cheeks.
You win the anal crown.
You weren't here for this, Andrew,
but this goes perfectly into anal Olympics.
We were talking earlier about shoving shampoo bottles
up our butts and then seeing who can walk with them
the farthest before you drop it.
There could be a whole series of events.
Wait, that was a conversation you had?
While you were spilling your,
while you were dropping your shampoo bottle.
Oh, I see.
I thought you meant earlier in the day
that you happened to be talking about
this anal Olympic premise.
Yeah, no, Gavin and I were browsing Reddit
and we were reading threads about, yeah, anal stuff.
Okay, yeah.
No, I could, hmm,
what else would be an anal event for the anal Olympics?
Anal taste test.
Been talking about that for years.
Anal taste test?
Yeah.
Well, what does that, is it like you,
the person who's most accurate wins?
How do you meddle in that?
Yeah.
Or maybe you could do like,
like you have like a,
like you do the,
the shampoo bottle is a distance thing,
but then maybe you have like a bunch of like,
I don't know, like little baseballs or something.
And you have to like pick up as many as you can and then drop them over in another bucket in that you have like a minute and whoever can move the most baseballs or apples whoever can
move the most apple ass apples when ass apples are good what i like about the shampoo bottle
is it has the length to turn it into a relay race which i think would be really funny if you can
pass off the anal bottle ass to ass.
100%. We talked about that idea
of bobbing for apples at Halloween,
which I still want to do. I think it's great.
You could also anal bob for apples.
Stick your butt in
a barrel and try to come up with
an apple.
I think it's a tough one to pull off.
Well, the Olympics are not for
the... It's the best in the world, Andrew.
That's fair.
And we could...
This would be great.
You have to walk through the anal passage
for the opening ceremony.
This is so stupid.
Do you think you could...
Not even could.
Do you think you are the best in the world
at anything right now?
Do I think I'm the best in the world at anything right now do i think i'm the best in
the world at and almost certainly something let me think something right there's got to be one
thing you do that nobody else does as well as you honor the confidence i was i thought he was
gonna say almost certainly not and he said something he thinks he's the best in the entire
world but can't even pinpoint it one thing well i just feel statistic i feel the same like aliens in outer space statistically probably i'd assume a lot of space up there i can do a lot
of things things that i can't even think of necessarily off the top of my head i'm sure
i'm the best at one of them some strangely specific best of anyone alive yeah but like how do you could i be super specific in the wording and be like the best
at holding a controller in a certain way without realizing it's a technique like how small of an
accomplishment are we right but like on a wednesday if it's cloudy right like you can whittle it down
to that but no i just like something that you do that you think you like there was a time uh when i
i and i know it's not true i
understand it's not true but there was a time when i felt like i was probably the best peggle player
on earth sure i had peggle confidence right uh there was a time when i considered myself once
again totally not true but i had i had machinima confidence and i felt like i was probably the
best machinimator on earth which is a a weird thing because maybe I was, but only
because nobody else gave a shit to try.
But still, there's got
to be something that Gavin is the very best.
He's probably the best
high-speed photographer of
a certain... People getting hit in the face
with soccer balls. There's probably nobody better
at capturing that than Gavin. You'd really have to narrow
it down for a unique set of experiences.
Best high-speed photographer who for a unique set of experiences. Best high speed photographer
who wears a lab coat while filming.
But my confidence is weird.
So like if I'm looking
at a raffle that has
not a lot of entrance in it or like
bingo is a better example. Every
bingo game I go into I have
an internal feeling of there's no fucking
way I'm going to lose this, even though it's completely
out of my control. I think we've talked about
this before with horse racing.
I would never bet on a horse
race by myself because I'd have
zero confidence in my ability to ever pick
the correct horse. And that's like a one in seven
or whatever. I just would never
believe that I could do it. But you could put me
in a raffle of twenty five thousand and I'd
look at it and be like, I'm feeling good about this.
I don't see how I lose.
You have bingo confidence. That's a great thing to have.
Dude, I'm two for two at picking
the right box in Survivor Do
or Die. Oh, really?
You do that? I didn't even consider it.
You might be the
best person in the world at that.
That's one of my...
You made the correct one in three choice twice
i love that they added that gimmick and the last shot and the dark so it's like they added two new
gimmicks to survivor just to be brief on it that are like whoa somebody could save themselves if
they pull a one in six or in a scenario in which you have to open one of three boxes two of them
will send you home one will one will keep boxes. Two of them will send you home.
One will one will keep you safe.
Neither of their twists.
I felt like worked.
Nobody has ever been saved by a shot in the dark.
And both times they did the three boxes.
It's clearly tilted in a way that they want them to be eliminated.
They both were just fine.
Like they added these new things and they had zero impact on how they wanted them to.
There's still good moments.
So this has been a phenomenal season. They're still good moments. Great moments. This has been a
phenomenal season. I've loved this season
of Survivor. Great season.
Who do you want to win?
This is like an interesting
thing about this season. There's
nobody I really would be upset with if they won.
Outside of Romeo, and it's
not even personal. They haven't
shown him do a lot. Everybody else
I'd be fine with. Romeo seems kind of weasley
I I'm not crazy for him but
I I agree with you I like if Jonathan
one that'd be great I think I want Marianne to win
but I wouldn't I wouldn't mind if
pretty much any of them one can I tell you
my dream scenario for the finale on Wednesday
so by the time people hear this they will know if this
happened or not but I've been anticipating
this for weeks I so
badly want because the last challenge in survivor
is a fire making challenge and whoever wins makes it to the end whoever loses goes home
there's no more votes at that point i so badly want it to be mike and jonathan and fire just
to hear mike be like couple of titans going at it i don't want it any other way like the way
couple of big guys yeah the way he compares it and also the beautiful
irony of if Mike the Fire
Fighter goes home because
of his inability to make fire. I just think
it would be so great. His commentary on his
matchup and him going home
due to his inability to make fire as a
firefighter. Wonderful.
That would be pretty spectacular.
That'd be great. That'd be great TV.
I think we should all...
Well, I hate to give us homework,
and you guys can ignore it too
because I'm not a teacher.
But I feel like we should all think about
what we're the best in the world at.
Maybe that's an angle we should take with the podcast.
Let's find our hidden talents
and let's celebrate them, right?
Eric's the best in the world at something.
Nick is the best in the world at something.
So I want to celebrate in that. Eric might's the best in the world at something nick is the best in the world at something so let's i want to i want to celebrate in that let's kind of figure out what i'm good at
in the world at translating how he really feels into a polite email very he's pretty good at that
he's pretty good somebody's got to do it because that's that's the only way anything's gonna get
done i also need to i i realize i'm i can't even say I'm the best high speed photographer
who has a lab coat because a lot of them are used in real labs.
Shit.
Yeah, I gotta think about what I could possibly be the best at.
I like that.
Maybe next episode we record,
we will submit our beliefs on what we're the best at.
Yeah, I mean, if you remember.
It's also, yeah, for sure.
I think that'd be fun. Should we also be best at. Yeah, I mean, if you remember. For sure, I think that'd be fun.
It could also be like,
you guys, it could be like
when Gavin was supposed to draw a Gerpler.
Oh, yeah.
Hey, I can contribute to the redemption here, right?
Sure, of course.
So should we come up with our own things
that we think we're best at,
or should we come up with us plus the other two i think that's fine i think both yeah i think both
is funny i want to hear what you think i would be the best at i think that'd be funny uh not in this
moment eyes bigger than their stomach confidence yeah you might you might be the best person at
being confidently wrong in your own abilities on Earth.
You're confident in a way that defies physics.
And reason.
That's fair.
I can't argue that.
What if you actually had the most unbreakable nose?
I think I do.
That's a great one to think of. I think my nose the most unbreakable nose? I think I do. That's a great one to think of.
I think my nose is very unbreakable.
It's just that there's, what, seven and a half billion people
on Earth? Yeah. Best nose.
Well, okay. There have to
be some clarifications, I think.
There has to be. Some people,
I don't know. There's some
scenarios in which I may not have the best. I think
I do, but there's some scenarios I could see.
Hey, speaking of the Gerpler, I wasn't able to make the merch meeting the last some scenarios in which i may not have the i think i do but there's some scenarios i could see hey
speaking of the gerbler i wasn't able to make the merch meeting the last couple weeks uh is that
still getting made yeah we completely forgot to talk about it i thought about that yesterday
it's like that was that was the one thing that we uh we didn't mention are the merch meetings
anything like pleasantries or are they just straight to business they're straight to business
they're straight to business but it's good business. Yeah. Huh.
I will say Eric almost accidentally
ordered you 300 more baseballs
Jeff. That was fun. Oh my god I have like
I still have I have four boxes
of baseballs in my house. We should probably hit those.
I got them now. You didn't fucking tell us
so I just said yeah we need to
order those baseballs so we can go hit the baseballs.
Yeah but I got them right as I was going out of town
so I couldn't have done anything. And you texted us after you baseballs. Yeah, but I got them right as I was going out of town. So I couldn't have done anything.
And you texted us after you did that.
Yeah.
Well, I told you, I did tell you.
No, we had to get it out of you.
But I told you.
No, we had to ask you.
That's not how this works.
But you asked me and then I told you.
No, because I told Mallory, we need to order those baseballs.
And she went, oh, more.
And I said, yeah, so we can hit more.
And then it was a whole run around of went, oh, more? And I said, yeah, so we can hit more.
And then it was a whole runaround of like, oh, no, Jeff has them.
Yeah, I do.
I do have them.
I have the baseball. So one more ordered on top of the more, or there was just one more?
No, it was close to happening.
They were almost more ordered.
So I was, I remembered them being ordered in the last meeting, and I heard the miscommunication
between Eric and Mallory, and I was very quiet.
I was very quiet. very quiet as as excited
about the possibility of Eric ordering a
whole other set of Jeff how funny
would that be though and that would
that would itself been pretty funny it would
have been funny but you would have died you would
have literally oh we could have done something different
with those ball we could come up with something clever and new to do
with those balls I oh man
oh man Andrew I don't think you were there
I think we came up with
this idea on the boat when we all went uh when we went to eric's birthday party his water adjacent
birthday party uh gavin had the idea that we should make a boot that has a vck soul on it
just like the logo and then like stand stand and paint and then make our own like one-of-a-kind
posters where you just like step step on the poster and it
fucking makes the boot print.
Originally I thought that would be a
really funny signature if Andrew had
to kick his signature onto people
or onto their shirts but I was like maybe we should
have him kick posters.
There should be a big gap for you to
sign stuff with your boot.
I don't feel like posters are kickable.
I think that's an interesting product that you choose to go with.
You could just stand.
Well, you'd hang it on a bit of wood, and then you kick it, and then you take the poster away,
and then someone else comes by and puts their poster there, and wham.
Yeah.
Okay.
I like it.
This is great.
Do you think you could kick 500 posters?
No, absolutely not.
Oh, my God.
Of course you could.
100%.
You couldn't? I could kick 1,000 posters god of course you couldn't you know i could kick a thousand
posters of course you could like we're giving it to the guy who rolls his ankle every time he sets
foot in austin and now oh yeah that's true that's true that's a lot of baths for you
i don't know i couldn't kick 500 without being dead afterward. Like just everything being soared.
Now,
what if we laid you on a bed and all you had to do was extend your leg?
What if,
okay,
I've got a premise for you.
What if we somehow made them the conveyor,
like the,
the part on a treadmill that goes in a circle and I just run on the treadmill
as they rapidly rotate.
That's a great idea. You just need somebody to feed it at the top of the treadmill as they rapidly rotate. That's a great idea.
You just need somebody to feed it at the top of the treadmill
and then somebody to pull it off at the end of the back.
We can totally do that.
Oh, that's a great idea, Andrew.
Eric, we need a treadmill.
A bigger one.
Do we ever talk about...
We want it to be as long as possible.
Okay, I can see what I can find.
Thank you.
Our failed RTX booth ideas. We were talking about the T-Town. Oh, were they see what I can find. I failed RTX booth ideas
where we're talking about the T-Town.
Were they failed? I like those.
I don't know which ones we're doing or not. I think we're going to do them, aren't we?
Are we going to do them? I don't know.
Maybe we shouldn't talk about them. We have some RTX
ideas because there'll be a...
I think they've cancelled all that because we didn't
get back to them in time.
We're going to do something, I assume,
at RTX, which is the big
roosterteeth convention in austin texas every year i think it's july 1st to 3rd this year
there will be some sort of an uh face booth on the show floor and we had a bunch of clever ideas
uh i don't know which one we're gonna do one of them was we were gonna have a wall of ians and
people could come up and draw their own ian and then gavin wanted to make tea towels of explain that
there's a that's i'm not sure if it's still done if you let me know if you've just come out of
english primary school if they still do this but they would go around the school and get everyone
to draw themselves on a post-it note and then write their name under it and then they would
print the entire school's post-it note portraits on a tea name under it and then they would print the entire school's
post-it note portraits on a tea towel and give it to the parents so you'd have like all of the
like year two and it'd be like pieces of shit drawings because they can't draw and as it goes
up in years like the drawings get a bit better and i think my tea towel was from when i was in
year two so it's a real piece of shit but yeah you'd have everyone you'd have everyone in the school little self portraits and it'd be it'd be amazingly niche to have a an ian's tea towel i love it yeah it's a
great idea we talked about recreating andrew's bedroom on the floor so people can walk around
and take pictures on the on the pillow mountain one to one scale yeah we talked about uh we talked
about uh putting out the the uh the porta potty and just letting people sign the outside of it,
which we could maybe still do.
We also talked about recording a 90-second episode
and then having it play on loop in the port-a-potty,
and you could go in and sit and listen to it for 60 seconds
and get up and let somebody else come sit in.
It was a nightmare for Trevor,
who was, I suppose, being told to get ideas out of us.
He would slack us, and we'd come up with ideas,
and then the day later, he'd be like,
all right, so which idea are we doing? And we would just submit like three
brand new ideas.
One thing I wanted to do was I wanted to have
a big wall. I wanted to call it the wall of
a thousand Ian's. This is where the
tea towel idea came. I don't know. They kind of fed
off each other. Yeah, the tea towel expanded
on that. And it was
broken into segment or it's like segmented out
into the size of baseball cards, essentially like a grid. And then everybody comes and they draw their own ian and then at the
end of rtx i cut up all thousand and i we have a thousand one of one individual e and art cards
that then i can give away during break shit or like throw it in with extra merch like we did
with when we threw cards in with the uh with the wrist pocket for instance which uh which by
the way uh i i was in orlando last week at the anal passage show and i know we're not gonna talk
about anal passage but i was there at the anal passage show and uh three people came up to me
in bald jack shirts and six people had anal passage shirts which yes was more people than had the annual pass shirt uh of the
same design uh but the dude who did the the uh the wrist pocket unboxing remember that guy yeah
he was there and i talked to him he was awesome and he brought his wrist pocket so i got to see
it so where was this event it was in orlando but like was it like a what was the venue it was a
place called the Vanguard Theater.
Okay.
You know, do you know, this isn't going to help for anybody who's not Gavin or for anybody
who wasn't at the show, but do you remember the venue in LA when we did the H tour this
year?
Yeah.
It was like a, it looked just like that place.
Like a bar at the back and all that?
Yeah.
It felt like the exact same.
It felt like I was in the same building.
And people would voluntarily wear an anal passage shirt to that?
There were probably 125 people there.
And I would say most of them mentioned anal passage to me.
But at least 10 of them were wearing face gear.
And I think I saw six anal passage shirts.
Yeah.
I can't wait to get mine.
I still don't have one.
Oh, really?
Really?
Do you have one?
I thought about wearing it.
Okay.
I'll check into that for you.
That's weird.
I never get any of it.
I've not got merch in months.
We also found out
that all of the merch
goes to RT
and is in the mail room
and Gavin just never goes to check.
Yeah.
So probably waiting for you there
with all the other merch.
That's right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's what it is.
Okay.
Thank you. Yeah, no problem. I went there and all of other merch. That's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what it is. Okay, thank you. Yeah, no problem.
I went there, and all of the merch
for me was gone. There was like
some dregs, but apparently
all my stuff was taken by someone.
Sarah Weems was very unhappy
about it. Well, that's where somebody, well,
somebody's wearing your anal passage shirt right now,
then.
Somebody in RT.
Ugh. I guess we should probably stop talking to each other for another week yeah we're gone next week right we're taking a one week break so two weeks from now i believe
we'll be back not for the audience are we not recording next week oh well okay what time out
we we were gonna take this week away and next week for you, Jeff.
So the fact that you don't know is alarming.
I'm not out of town next week.
No, no.
We're recording next week.
Yeah, I don't know what you're talking about.
Yeah, we were going to not record this week, but instead we moved it to Tuesday.
This was the week we were going to skip.
I thought we were going to miss two weeks.
So we're not doing this Thursday?
Correct.
Yeah, because I have to go to a convention.
But I was under the impression
we were recording as always, as normal, on Thursday.
Do you need to cancel some plans now, Andrew?
Next week, regular.
Okay.
Oh, someone's joined.
Uh-oh.
Is that Jack?
I just want to end this.
We have to end the episode.
Well, now that Jack's here,
we'll have him do next time this time.
That's a great idea. Okay. All right. Since we're going to end it,. Well, I know. Now that Jack's here, we'll have him do next time. That's a great idea.
Okay.
All right.
We're going to end it.
That's great.
Jack, here, hop on
and give us our next week.

What do we do this time?
Well, I just finished listening
to the episode
that came out today.
Yeah, we did a nice episode.
You guys basically saying that you couldn't, you can't take down the shirt because it's outlived me.
Yeah.

It's too successful.
Number one shirt of the year.
