With me, as always, Andrew Panton, Gavin Free, Eric and Nick somewhere in the background.

And take it away, Gavin. I like that Eric typically types in the Discord as you're doing the intro, the episode number, because, you know, it's historically been like 192 or whatever. He wrote episode two. I feel like we could have figured that out. No, I agree. I agree. But I figure, you know, we have a good thing going and I feel good about

letting you know through this chat. Episode two nick is right why risk it it helps me because i when i go back in a week to do the thumbnail it's hard to figure out where the episode started because there we go there's just a bunch of nonsense and sometimes there have been multiple occasions where i've put photos up in the week in the episode dump that weren't a part of the episode they were just shit we were talking about before or after. It confuses the audience. So I really need the episode two marker. Thank you.

But I will say, Gavin, I totally agree. And if this was somebody else doing it, I would have been all over them for saying episode two as well. I feel like Regulation Podcast is going pretty well so far. Amazing start. Thank you so much to all the people that have supported us via Patreon. It's been an unbelievable amount of support. It has been wonderful and

overwhelming in a very amazing way. Apparently not to everybody else. Nobody else agrees. Jesus fucking Christ. What's wrong with all of you? I really thought that Jeff would start saying something like that. I just couldn't believe he didn't.

Oh, really? No, I was expecting Eric to say something. Oh. Yeah, I was waiting for Eric. Just any of you. If any of you could have said something. I mean, I'm muted. You can see very clearly that I'm muted when I'm not talking.

I mean, technically, we do everything in ANEG. So, like, Andrew spoke. It should have been. He should have thrown to Nick and then Eric. And then it was my turn. Okay, then we'll do it. All right, then go ahead, Nick. I'm blown away.

Thank you for all the support and the love that you've given us and following our Patreon. And if not, our new YouTube page as well. Great. Hey, guys, I want to say I'm sorry for the rocky start we had as the regulation podcast. I apologize for the confusion that came through telling you to download the episodes, which I never should have done. Clearly, I apologize for any confusion that caused. But I do want to say I am overwhelmed by your support and I want to thank you for following us as difficult as it was to find these episodes. Thank you very, very much.

So wait, they shouldn't download it. I just shouldn't have said anything. I didn't find it to be confusing when I said download the episode, it helps us. And then people went, what if I download it on YouTube? And I just went, this is, we're already, this is, we're gone. We're beyond. They're like, what if I pirate it? And it's like, what are you talking about?

This is insane. So I just shouldn't have said anything. I apologize for the rocky start with where we had to upload and everything. But hopefully by this point, we have it all sorted out. You guys are following where you can and we appreciate your support. Hey, y'all.

It's your boy Lil Jeffy here. And I just wanted to reiterate what my coworkers and friends have said. What an amazing show of support. Boy, does it mean the world to us. If I could explain it in such a way, it's like you as a community have given my heart,

my very heart, the biggest throbbing boner a heart has ever had. I feel like I'm just my heart is just pumping love and blood and just like good feelings and jizz. I feel like I'm going to explode

with cheer if at all possible so thank you so much for my heart boner and for all of the support Gavin I believe it's your turn I hate this bit so much but everything should be in place now right

we've acquired some things hopefully have we I mean, we've said yes. You got paperwork? Yeah, right. I'm all done with the paperwork. But that's not the end of all of this, and we're in the middle of just waiting to hear back on some stuff,

and then we'll be able to turn everything over. We might be getting our bleep back. Oh my god! We'll see. Let's wait and see. I don't want to risk it I wouldn't even throw it out there That whether or not the bleep is here or not I feel like he said it

We might He said we might Well I mean we own it I mean it's paid for Yes exactly So that's But like you know The actual ownership and reversion

I just wouldn't test it I just wouldn't say the old name Well the thing that we Gavin you bought We bought a thing Yeah... Gavin, we bought a thing. Yeah. Right? And now we own a thing, in theory. I don't know why we can't talk about the thing we own.

I don't know. Is it a zoo? Nick asked if it's a zoo. We bought a zoo. Technically speaking, you're Eric's boss at the moment, Gavin. We're in a transitional phase. Oh, I like this Eric when do you want

your review to be I would say this time next year okay let me write that down you got it set alarm for one year from now

it's just funny because as of today it's still a little murky but by the time this episode comes out it will be 100% done that's why I was bringing it up

I know I know that's why I was bringing it up. I know. I know that's why you're bringing it up. I think Eric is worried it won't be. The hilarious thing is we're doing a twofer today, so we're going to immediately roll into episode three right after this, and we still won't be able to talk about it. Oh, it is definitely going to be done there.

Yeah. Before we move on, I need to just take the show hostage for a minute because I keep putting something off. I keep delaying this. I'm still using my old chair because i keep waiting to do a thing where i sit in the chair for the first time oh yeah and it never comes what i've been waiting you could have done it last week i know but it never came up i never found a way to interject it doesn't matter it doesn't matter just let him do the chair thing so So do you want to do it right now? I'm standing

up. I'm about to sit in my new Herman Miller. I've been waiting months. It doesn't make sense to do it like four minutes in. Why wouldn't you wait until the end of the episode to be like a big grand finale? Because I want to sit in the chair. I'm so sick of this. It's weird to do it mid-episode, dude.

What if you start the next episode in the new chair? Oh, we can compare the performances correctly. I definitely agree with that. I agree with that also, yeah. Hang on. Hang on. Now, we are all co-owners of this company, and I think we can take a vote.

I vote for next episode. I also vote for next episode. I vote for this episode. Oh, I'm sorry. Unfortunately, Andrew and Gavin, you are outvoted. Andrew, I did what I could. Majority rules. That's what we determined. That's such a lie. What do you mean? No, I didn't.

You put this in motion. You kicked the ball. Does anybody think that it's going to be like a reverse Icy Hot on the Ball situation where Andrew ceases to be as funny because he's uncomfortable? Oh, I feel full of sleep. Like maybe we'll have to put thumbtacks in the bottom of the chair or something just to agitate you a little bit to keep you alert.

Oh, I'm plenty agitated. You don't need to put in the thumbtacks. I'm annoyed. You know, I think technically was that given to you under the previous podcast, that chair? Yeah. Yeah, I guess it was. I think technically, was that given to you under the previous podcast, that chair? Yeah. Yeah, I guess it was. I think technically, currently, that's my chair. I bought that and owned that chair.

Yeah, that's pretty... That's Gavin's chair. I believe Gavin bought your chair. Yeah. So if you could just pop that to the side for now, I'd really appreciate it. God damn it. Fucking give me a second to put this chair away. I was really excited to sit in it.

Keep it close. Next episode is right around the corner. God damn it. I hate you guys. I love you guys, but I hate you guys. We're just trying to be fair about it. I just want to sit in the new chair. I've had this chair for so long.

The problem is you could have done it at any point in the past, and you're the reason you didn't. And now... Because I said I would... Yeah, what you've done is you've built up this really funny bit and now we're all committed to your bit. Yeah. I was looking over my notes

to try to get ready for today's episodes, of which there are painfully few notes, by the way. I have very little to talk about. And I got so confused by my notes. The number one note I had was head sheen. I probably spent a good three minutes at that coffee shop this morning, Gav, before everybody showed up,

trying to figure out what the fuck I wrote. Sloppy Joe's bingo. Yeah. I eventually got there, but I was so fucking mad at myself for not explaining what I was thinking there. Yeah, we did a Sloppy Joe's bingo recently under the new podcast,

and I think it was our best one. I had so much fun. And we've thought about changing up the list, adding some new things, and Headsheen was one of the new spots. Yeah, I have overstayed your welcome, Headsheen, Dog Out Too Late. That's what helped me figure it out.

New Booth Goofing, dickhead truck, and move along. Move along did not help at all. We were so close to losing Pink Taxi, and then Pink Taxi showed up. Terrible. In a big way. Oh, clown car. Clown car.

We got to add clown car. Clown car. I got my wheelchair finally. Been waiting three different sloppy joes for one. You got a convoy of them. I won. Finally, Eric lost a sloppy joes for one. You got a convoy of them. I won. Finally, Eric lost a sloppy joes bingo. It was a great night.

Yeah. Do you know what I found out today at coffee? What? That at his old job, Jeff used to sit on a raised platform above all the other employees. What? I don't know why this sticks out to you.

I didn't choose to sit there. It was my job to sit there. I was paid to sit there. I was in charge of all of those people. They were my minions. Like a god in a prison. Yeah, I'm in Steve Carell, and they were my little worker tech minions,

and they... Yeah, and I had to keep to i had to stay i had to had to keep an eye on them all man it was jason and nick and a bunch of other lunatics becca and fucking gus and like they were they're maniacs you sat above gus yeah dude so that but what that really meant though is that like a panopticon everyone Everyone could see you. Panopticon? Is that a Pokemon? What's a panopticon? I think it was a type of like circular jail where like one guard could watch every prisoner.

Oh, wow. Oh, we went to one of those, huh? I only know it because of... This is crazy. That is insane. It was a way of having a lot of prisoners and very few staff. But I know that word because there's a panopticon in control. We did that in, fuck, where were we?

Louisiana? That jail was a panopticon. Remember, Gav? Was it? I'm pretty sure. Have I been in a panopticon? We did that joke. Daniel Fabella did that joke we're never supposed to do on set.

What was the joke? They made it look like somebody fell from the top or got home I can't remember exactly it was a haunter episode though we did it in haunter before today Gavin if somebody asked you if you had played lost planet or been to panopticon would your answer have been

no no yes okay well you just seem like you didn't know because I went in control. That doesn't count. Hey, Jeff, have you ever flown? Oh, my God, yeah. I was flying earlier. Thanks for asking.

Have you ever done a 1080 on a snowfall? You ever dropped a nuke before? Hammered a dawn? Dropped a what? Dropped a nuke. Ohed a dawn dropped a what? dropped a nuke oh like Fallout 76 yeah

yeah yeah yeah I wonder if I'll ever be able to release all that footage I took of the crew of Haunter when they all lost their

freaking minds and refused to film oh that was a frustrating night man that was frustrating we had a lot of believers on the crew and that was a frustrating night man that was frustrating we had a lot of uh believers on the crew and there was a what someone deemed to be a supernatural experience and then everyone legitimately freaked out for about two hours they thought there were they wouldn't film on account

of real ghosts they thought the ghost was real and everyone was like i'm not going out there i'm not i'm not i'm not saying one one of the local crew dude it got so much worse one of the local crew said they saw an orb and it chased them and they refused and they they and other members of the crew just left we're like we're not working the rest of the night an orb chased me it's gonna kill me and they just fucking left the medic was checking someone out after something like this just fucking left the medic was checking someone out after something like this happened and then the medic was freaking out yeah yeah oh i got so much good footage of that people lost their fucking minds and i got and there was some

it was interesting there's some very tense conversations with producers going like are you fucking serious right now are you really scared of a ghost right now well because i think everyone was trying to do the responsible thing like the producer was trying to keep all the crew happy and stuff but they weren't happy so they were they were like siding with the crew which i guess if i was the producer i would also do that but no you got one everybody to feel safe but as a ghost hunter it's like this is why we're doing it we're trying to find a stupid fucking ghost we were like roll the damn cameras.

Don't run away from the ghost. We run towards the ghost. Yeah, dude. I don't know if we can film this ghost show. I just saw a ghost. So I'm thinking that we shouldn't do this. It was surreal. I didn't know.

I didn't know what to do. I just sat quietly. I just had to wait it out. Wow. Do you think there's any job where that's a justifiable excuse for suddenly leaving work? Like you work at Subway and he's like, no, there's a goat. I got chased by an orb in the kitchen. I'm going home.

I would say cemetery. You're like groundskeeper to cemetery. Oh, cemetery is a good one. Yeah. Just a half dug grave. I feel like if you tell any other person who works at a cemetery, I had to leave early. I saw a ghost. They'd be like, yeah, I got it. I got you.

Yeah. An orb chased me. They got chased by Pac-Man and had to call out early. You know all that we did two seasons of that show. That only happened that time. Everybody else was totally had their shit together. Every other recording. It was just that one that was weird. That's because ghosts

aren't real. So it didn't happen again. Whoa. It was definitely a more religious area. I'll say that. And there was different values. Calm down there. If ghosts aren't real, explain how that guy got chased by an orb.

You know what? Some things you just can't explain, I guess. You got me. Somebody hasn't seen Mind Freak. I was thinking about all the phone footage I've got from over the years and how a lot of it was filmed for the previous company. But a lot of it was filmed before I worked there. Because we were talking last week about Rain Run, right?

That was filmed before that show existed. So technically, if I just take my footage and just recut it, it would be a brand new thing. And I'm thinking maybe we just uncensor your cock. What? Oh! Yeah, you want

to re-release that video, but I'm swinging my dick everywhere while I'm bleeding and covered in glass and mud. Let's go behind the paint wall. It would be a new product. It's true. It's true. The Gavin cut is just dicks are shown.

It's the only difference. He just flips the bar so only the dick is visible. The rest of the screen's blacked out. It's this? Is this the thumbnail for it oh yeah yeah jeff's cock fell out in the middle of that yeah i uh that we were running in the rain and because it was lightning and thundering and it was like shitting down rain and so we were taking turns and filming it. And it was my turn. I ran out into the street and I slid and I fucking went knee first into a bunch of gravel

and it just ripped my shin and my knee up. And I was covered in blood, blew out my pants. And I ran back in going, I'm in a lot of pain. I'm in a lot of pain. I'm really hurt. I'm really hurt. They're laughing at me. And I ran into the bathroom and I pulled my pants down,

bent over to pull my pants down. And there's just like blood and skin and rocks and shit sticking out of my leg and I went oh and I I stood back up and I hit a glass countertop that had like all the deodorant and razors and soap and shit on it and it shattered all around

me on the ground with my dick out and blood everywhere and then I was it was just brutal it was a long night that sounds terrible. Wow. And Gavin filmed the whole thing. That's true. I,

and he still has it. He still has the uncensored dick. Yeah. Just waiting. Were you holding onto that footage, Gavin, for some reason to use? Do you just save all your footage?

He uses it pretty regularly. If you know what I mean. I feel like getting a gravel injury on your dick would be especially bad. I feel like gravel would struggle to hurt the dick. The dick just gets moved out of the way. I don't... If you're falling, I don't... I disagree. I feel like gravel is all, like, palm of hands and shins and knees.

It's all the stuff that isn't malleable. Yeah, I feel like it's like a dick defense mechanism you have is that it's so malleable, it knows to avoid. It like pings off of danger. Like, I can't remember the last time I banged my dick on something. It has a lot of protection in the scenario which is exposed anytime i think of banging dicks i think of that survivor challenge where they blindfold everybody and they make the people oh yeah on the tall platform and direct them through the maze but

it's all dick height and it's all like just like jagged wood sticking out and people just rack themselves over and over again they don't't do that anymore. That was the ultimate survivor. They just kept dropping shit on each other's heads. Is that what you're imagining? That's your penis. Your dick was gravel, Gavin.

Dicks are Muhammad Ali. Can we motion track the text onto the boxing glove that just says gravel? And just dick onto Muhammad Ali? Can we motion track the text onto the boxer glove that just says gravel? And just dick onto Muhammad Ali's head? Just dodging?

Do you remember stuff at school remember stuff like do you remember having things at school that made you laugh and you couldn't you couldn't laugh so you would always try and hold in the laughter and end up going like yeah i think i talked about one i remembered a

recent one that i just couldn't i could not hold in the laughter maybe it made me laugh like 20 minutes after the thing happened i I had this humanities teacher who, when the class was being too rowdy, he would just write on the corner of the whiteboard, he'd just make a small box. And then as more minutes passed, he would write a number in there. So if we were like dicking around for two minutes,

he would just put a two in the box. And eventually it would get to the point where people would see like eight and be like, oh, we're going to miss the hole of breaks. Everyone would shut up. But once he, uh, we were doing like a projection, like the overhead projector thing, he pulled down the screen in front of the whiteboard and was projecting stuff. And the class was dicking around that he just quickly pulled out the marker and wrote the box, but he wrote it on the projection screen instead of the whiteboard. And everyone laughed.

Everyone laughed and he was really, really annoyed. He was trying to rub it off. He couldn't get it off because it was fabric. And for some reason, every minute that passed, it would come back into my head and I just kept laughing. And I was like laughing into my coat, into my fingers. I just have to shove my hand over my mouth. And I could not.

It was the funniest thing in the world to me in that moment. And then as soon as I left the classroom, I was like, oh, wasn't that funny? But getting stuck in the moment, I just could not shift it. It was the funniest thing in the world. And it stayed on there for like two years every time i had a lesson in that room there'd be just two lines making a corner in the top right of the projection screen was it funny every time you saw it yeah not as funny as the first time but it did it did make me cackle every time that was my question is how long it lasted i'd like to imagine it's still there ah that'd

be so good i don't think they use those projectors anymore. I can't imagine. It was like one of those desktop overhead. Do you, do you have anything in your classes that you, what was the one you mentioned Andrew before? I can't remember. I had two,

I had one where, uh, I was, my mom included the book version of the Steve Martin pink Panther movie. And there's just, Oh yeah. From the film. The camouflage could not,

the camouflage just kept getting me the other one that I just remembered. And it's not, as he said, it is so not funny, but it was just, you're in that loop of it is the funniest thing ever. And then you become aware that it's not as funny and that just makes it funnier that we had to do like a creative writing thing and my friend and i were

writing like a star wars pun based thing for the class and we're calling stuff like instead of lightsaber they were lifesavers like it was a candy sword and that was the funniest shit ever even though it's not funny at all and just could not stop no matter what is getting in trouble and like trying to you desperately want to stop laughing. But you just can't. You're just stuck. Do you remember the the most or like the hardest you've ever laughed in your entire life? No. Oh, I wish I could.

I think once again, I think I told this before on the show, but there is when I went to save my friend Brandon in a PUBG and I accidentally ran him over with the car. I laughed so hard I almost fainted. That's a rare time. There was a moment in a Let's Play we were doing years ago where a Jeep came in save save us and it ran over jack and i remember i remember laughing for like a week straight after that but you guys are

great in that regard that just popped out of my head though that's that's not the moment but man what was the moment do you have one i i don't know i i'm like the only thing that comes to mind is actually it's a gavin moment but the night that gavin mind is actually it's a Gavin moment but the night that Gavin and I and it's the night it is the night that Gavin tried to fuck me but that's not what this is about come on it's the night that that's what you said that night when I said no uh it's uh it's the night we watched for some reason we watched Tommy Boy together and that that night I was like the 20th time I'd seen it but I I don't think I've ever laughed as hard as watching Tommy play with you that night.

Something about just the right night and the right mood. Yeah, the right environment, the right people. It was like a party was happening behind us. It was the kind of laughter

where like Jeff's lent back on the couch and his legs are kicking at like 50 miles an hour and the whole couch is like... Home Alone. Anytime,

if I go a good six months without seeing home alone it's like watching it for the first time that gets me i would honestly say andrew's story about his ankles had me up it put maybe in a top 10 laugh i'm glad my pain can bring you such joy yeah and it wasn't even a live pain it was just a retelling of your pain. Yeah. Recapping pain. If I watched you do it, I wouldn't have laughed at all. You told me a story one time about walking through the woods and some guys bullying you and taking your jacket. And I remember this wasn't on content or anything. And I just remember laughing my ass off in that story, the way you told it being very, very funny. Do you remember

that? I don't remember that. what i immediately think of with woods was i my i had a friend who had an airsoft birthday party and so we met this guy and then he drove us into the woods and he played for some reason it was very odd but my mom was worried i'd get hurt so she put me in the biggest like sweater that i had but it was like a rainbow sweater. So it just resulted in me getting pelted by, by bullets or the pellets. Cause I were in the woods, everything's green and I'm wearing like a bright red and orange and yellow. Like I was the most visible thing.

Yeah. Giant shoot me sweater. And I just got destroyed because of it. It was the reverse of camo. It was a, Eric just said. It was not a fun time. I'm trying to think of any other good pain. I mean, I fell in that box recently at first. I should just get rid of that basket that I have in my bathroom

because I don't use it. And all I've used it for is stepping in it accidentally and then going headfirst into it. It's really brought me zero joy. I know it's probably not like the funniest moment probably wouldn't be during content, but for some reason that's what pops up the most. The time that Gavin and I were doing a let's play an MLB

like that 2K baseball game and he referred to the batter's box as a staple and for some reason that made I shit my pants. like that 2K baseball game. And he referred to the batter's box as a staple. And for some reason that made, I shit my pants. I laughed so hard in that moment. I had to run to the bathroom and clean up and so we could finish the video. You were drinking back then though.

It was a lot easier to get you to shit your pants. It was a little easier. That might be the only time I've laughed so hard I literally shit my pants. Yeah, you got it for the left. That was our first let's play together after I came back was it really

yeah oh that's cool wow probably the first one since jump shot in left 4 dead Jesus that was the first

real let's play we ever did maybe yeah I decided I wanted to make achievement guides but record the commentary live as we were trying to get them

just turned into let's Plays, really. Oh, wow. I mean, yeah, it's essentially that. That was great. I'm still missing one achievement, I think, in the original Left 4 Dead. Which one? I think it was one of the DLC ones, I want to say. Do you remember that night you and I tried to clean

up DLC achievements and we were both so bad at Left 4 Dead we said we'd never talk about it? And I remember because you were playing with Andrea and I wasn Dead we said we'd never talk about it. And I remember because you were playing with Andrew and I wasn't either I wasn't a part of it or I was watching

but you stopped you like put down the controller took off your headset at the end of that and you were like I think Andrew's lost it. I think

I did. It's gone. The magic was gone. It was a bad night. We I would love I think we got to have discs right? That's the only hold up, I would love, I think we got to have discs, right?

That's the only holdup, but I would love, love for us to do let's plays in left for dead. Well, you found a whole bundle of discs. So we should have to see if there's any in there. Yeah. Yeah. You took a big spindle.

Oh yeah. It's crazy to me. You didn't look through that. Like I would, I just, I would have to check if I were you. I'd be so excited. Oh, you just grabbed it?

Yeah. It was just my old, it was my old stuff. Yeah, but, I don't know, I guess for me, if I, here's a copy of Amped 3.

The Simpsons game, Kane and Lynch, Top Spin, Madden 06. Are you looking through it right now? Yeah. Connect Adventures,

Superman Returns. The Simpsons game is worth a lot of money now. Wow. Red Dead Redemption. Red Dead Redemption. I'm not seeing any Left 4 Dead. Oh, multiple copies of Quake 4. Hell yeah.

We just played that. Oh, Eric, you'll love this. I have a copy of Smackdown vs. Raw 2007. That game sucks. No. Get ready to do Let's plays in it here's my copy of open season nice this podcast has

turned into Jeff saying names of things in Nick going ooh I'm waiting for left for dead I'm not gonna say any more names I'll just point I'll just say it if if it shows up you announced

it was a lover dead double agent that's a great game i love double agent that's probably my favorite splinter cell gavin what's your favorite uh probably i mean double agent had really good multiplayer maybe the third one chaos theory gas theory is good too i have a new product idea that i'm really happy with but uh I don't know how we do it. We don't really have a Tony in our lives anymore. Sadly, this would be a classic Tony product. But I was thinking about what would be something, you know, in the same vein of we did the clog tube.

What is like a product anyone could use or that like has a purpose, a real purpose? And I thought toothbrushes, regulation toothbrush. And that was my first thought. And I thought, what if we put a grown tube in a toothbrush? I think that would work really well. Because you got the swivel motion, the left and right. Like, I think it would actually function. Allow me to modify this a little bit when you're done.

Of course. No, I want to hear the modification now. I've always thought about what's the problem with a toothbrush, right? At the end of the day, what's the problem? You brush your lower teeth, then you got to flip the toothbrush to brush your upper teeth. You're doing the work twice. Why don't we invent a toothbrush that has the bristles on the bottom

and the top so you're brushing both sets of teeth at the same time? I like that. Like a double... Double-edged, yeah. Like a great sword for toothbrushes. Now, is it front and back or top and bottom?

Oh, you know what would be even better is if it was like a toilet plunger and it was just all bristles. Oh. That's... bottom oh you know it'd be even better as if it was like a toilet plunger and it was just all bristles oh that's what is eric is posting photos once again this shit exists that one is for both sides of the teeth at the same time nick said oops all bristles that's what are the names of these toothbrushes eric if If I want a double side, what is that called? The last one that I just sent is called the Nano 360 three-sided toothbrush. So you're getting the front, the back, and the top on a brush,

but it's not quite what Jeff is talking about where it's both sides. It's also not 360 degrees. No. I agree with you. Otherwise, that would be brushing the underneath of your teeth roots. The first one is in Arthur Colpaire proposed double-sided toothbrush that saves time. Most double-sided toothbrushes that you find are really only focusing on the front and backs of teeth and not the top and bottom at the same time,

which I guess makes sense, like, if you, like, really think about it. Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking. Damn, Oral-B. Oral-B. Well, there's no way Oral-B has put a grown tube in a toothbrush, so he's still got that. That's true, that's true. The problem would be it'd be chunky, right?

That'd be a thick toothbrush. Yeah, couldn't you take the keychain one that we had and like tape it on there and like give it a shot yes i could as a prototype i like that idea a lot yeah yeah you can prototype that for us just record the sound while you brush your teeth so we can hear how it sounds i will while you're doing that you should invent a grown pencil too so that every time you make a mistake and you flip it up to erase it, you get a groan. Just goes, oops! That's a fucking great idea. Now you can hear, now there's an audible sound every time you fuck up.

As long as I don't have to eat it, I'm on board. I like this idea a lot. That'd be your redemption, yeah. Yeah. A groan pencil. Have you ever thought about becoming friends with a guy called Tony and a guy called Oscar

and maybe like an Emily and trying to trying to get like a friendship EGOT I know a Tony and Oscar and an Emily

I'm married to an Emily I think finding someone called Grammy might be a bit difficult yeah but what about a Gavin? Oh! What do you mean?

Emily, Gavin? Your name starts with G. Your name starts with any G. I mean, do you guys not understand what Gavin's saying? Emmy and Emily. Gavin, I just want to say that you made perfect sense.

You made perfect sense through the whole way. I'm just letting you know. I was still thinking about two brushes. Only one person got it and the rest of us didn't. Yeah, and explained it to us. You and me, Eric. That's on them. I don't know why they're pointing fingers. It made sense when you said

Tony and Oscar. It all made sense, 100%. You think there are any listeners named Grammy? You think anyone who listens to this show is named Grammy? Does anyone have that nickname for their grandmother? That's exactly what it's going to be. People are going to go grandmother, yeah, 100%. Oh, Nick says his mom is Grammy.

Yep, to my kid. Oh. Can you introduce your mom to Gavin for this bit? You can only call her Grammy, though. I'm sure she'll love that. I'm sure he'll love that. Yeah. I have a game.

Oh, sweet. I got a game, too. I'm going to do it next episode. Oh, you're going to do next episode? Let me get my game together. Hey, Eric, you got a game. Oh, sweet. I got a game, too. I'm going to do it next episode. Oh, you're going to do next episode? Let me get my game together. Hey, Eric, you got a game? No, man. I'm along for the ride on this one.

I don't have a game either. I just want to play. This is a guessing game for you guys. As you know, my computer is a piece of shit and will freeze all the time. And there will be times where I'm going to search something and i'll put in all the characters correctly it will freeze and then it will spit out all the things i put but in a random sequence that you can't unless you know what it is isn't going to necessarily make sense so i'm going to put in a recent one i had and you have to tell me what was I trying to search? The letters are G-E-A-M space N-F-T space O-F-F-R.

Some sort of great offer? So it's been scrambled? It is, yes. Are all the letters present? Uh, no. No. Two of the words can be made hmm how many was was it three three words i think the first word is team it's either team or gleam gleam team i don't think it's gleam team gleam team i don't think it's gleam team it's not game game nft offer no yeah andrew's big into nft yeah he's big into nft is right that is part of the search what oh green mage Magic NFT Offsides

So I will say My next clue for the jeem Uh Parts of the jeem and parts of the offer Are actually just the first word Off game Off game Offer NFT Grammy off game offer nft

grammy are you gonna offer nfts to nick's mom i'm not unfortunately the word i tried to search was jeff ramsey nft because i was thinking about when we did the ham sandwich back before

we knew what nfts were and that it was bad we had a ham sandwich nft oh yeah i was eric and i were talking about it i was like where even is that now how much negative money is that worth and uh i went to search it and that is what came out when i typed in jeff rams the nft did you ever find NFT? No, I did not follow through on the search for the NFT. Why does your computer do that?

Because it's from 2009 and it's an Apple. Maybe not that late. Let's see about this Mac. Can we track down the ham sandwich NFT? If you're listening and you're the owner of the ham sandwich NFT, please let us know how much regret you have. It's not for sale.

They're not selling it. Oh, wow. I mean, like they could if they wanted to. I don't think that it's the fucking war. It's the first ham sandwich. First NFT ham sandwich ever. It's a one of one. It's clearly marked.

What other searches have you got? That's the only one I got for now. I'm going to update it as it goes. It is a short game, but it happens often. There's a picture of me eating the ham sandwich. Mustard on the outside. It was weird.

I didn't like that part of it. I didn't really like any of it. It was a good ham sandwich. Sort of in relation to that of me misunderstanding things, I watched the New Zealand version of The Traitors recently. I've been getting into The Traitors.

Oh, don't spoil it i'm only halfway through i'm not gonna spoil anything for you but i had i had a moment where i misinterpreted something uh completely where they were they were doing you know how like in those reality shows they knew interviews of the people and they react to stuff like a reality tv works and one of them said mum's a and i thought oh is that like a new zealand slang sentence is that like a like a excitement or like does that mean like whoa type thing uh and it turns out it's not the woman was just saying mums a in reference to the fact that they were mums but they were moms oh yeah mums a mums a yeah but i thought it was i thought it was one thing i thought it was mums a like a saying so that has become a thing with my partner and i mum's a is like a now slang word but i was convinced i thought it

was like a crazy new zealand thing and uh i i was wrong i felt really dumb england had a show called the crystal maze uh hosted by richard o'brien from rocky horror and uh he would always say mumsy but it was because that's what he called his mom and he was in the maze as well the mom was in the maze i've heard mumsy as a as a mom before mumsy i've never heard that mumsy it's like posh posh yeah i hear it in a british accent yeah it's like a little british like a little british boy say it. Or an adult pretending to be a little British boy. That's more like it. I've decided there's a new type of guy that I want to become.

I want to become a gravy in a can guy. What is gravy in a can? Pots? What? Caramelized onion gravy? I want to get into gravy, but from cans. What would you use that for? Meat?

Just drink it. Yeah, drink it. They'll pick me up in the middle of the day. Yeah, it would be fun to leave amongst a load of beers in a cooler. Yeah! Mood with a tree sauce. Pot. Now, have you used this? Is it good?

No, I was too scared to buy it, but I think it would have built my confidence. Let's go get it! How are you gonna be one of those guys if you won't even buy it? Yeah. Uh, it was like, it was like six bucks, I think. That's British, right? HB? Yeah, I was on the, I was in the World Food... Yeah.

Was it called World Market? Oh yeah! Yeah, Nick, you wanna, you wanna try. Was it called World Market? Oh, yeah. Yeah, Nick, you want to try gravy can? Absolutely. Let's do it. You guys should see who can chug a can of gravy first. Oh, God. Oh, no.

I hate that. I don't know what I hate more, that or your piss fountain, your piss waterfall thing. Everybody loved the piss waterfall. There were zero issues with it. It was 100% positive. Most people were like, don't give us a warning next time. We want to be surprised by it.

Oh, was there really backlash in the first episode? Very minor. Wow. That's funny. Well, that's what the podcast is supposed to be. Do you want to hear a review for Potts caramelized onion gravy made with hp sauce oh has three stars according to this person i bought this product to use a

mashed potatoes and sausages for dinner i did not know what to expect from gravy in a beer can i found the product to be decent but it was more like a sweet curry rather than a gravy interesting okay so nick we'll get some mash and some sozzies. We'll cook them up, pour half a can each. Or do you want a full can each? That's a full can. Boy.

That's going to be a lot of gravy. Fucking, I mean, had an out and just went full can. I love it. Should we do this? Should we all do it? Yes. No. No. Why not? Should we do this? Should we all do it? Yes. No. No.

So, Eric, you're saying that if we all got together and Nick and I did the gravy from a can, you would just say no thanks? I mean, I would be excited to watch it. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we'd cheer you on. But this definitely feels like a Gavin and Nick specific thing. Yeah. The two British guys.

To be honest with you, if Eric and I participated I think it would lessen the whole thing I disagree I'm going to vote on it should Eric drink the can of gravy I vote yes I vote yes Andrew it was a solid no when it was him alright well if it's

should Eric drink the gravy I guess I'm a yes as well yes I love democracy. It's too bad our country doesn't. Let's do it again. It's like this weird strong arm democracy where no one actually has a say. It's just bullying.

It's great. It's so funny. I think we've completely misunderstood the concept. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely. Oh, my God. Wow. Well, we got to get together and do stuff soon anyway, right?

There's got to be something. Yeah. I think the problem with democracy and the way we've done it is that you're all for it unless it's about you, in which case you can be more against it. Well, I think that's democracy in general. I'm not really sure why you're presenting this like, I think maybe this is my hypothesis. When you were a no, and then you just voted yes.

Like, that's clearly what happened. It's not a hypothesis. You just showed it in action. I had to rephrase the vote, because if I said, should we all try it, I would have been out in the vote. Yeah, absolutely, 100%. Yeah.

I'm just acknowledging that. I thought that was a lot of fun to vote. Yes. But if that was flipped, I would not have had a fun time. And I know the vote would have been yes. The question is what gravy do you go with? Cause they have multiple lines of gravy to can. Oh, so caramelized onions is like one flavor.

That is one flavor of pots. Gravy cans. Well, let's get all the flavors and we'll do a blind bag we'll reach in it'll be like a potluck i love it let's do it i've been wanting to do a blind taste test for a while with something i was thinking it'd be fun to get all those remember a while back i don't think it made it into an episode maybe it did but i showed you guys a bunch of uh just like weird ass uh sodas that i found at the fiesta yes yeah i want to buy a bunch of those and do some sort of a blind taste test see if

you could figure out what the fuck any of it is maybe we can do it with maybe we can combine them so are you are you gonna drink the gravy also who you well i wasn't voted on so no okay i i mean but you want to do the blind taste test with the sodas not with the gravy You? Well, I wasn't voted on, so no. Okay. I mean, but you want to do the blind taste test. With the sodas, not with the gravy. They kind of go hand in hand. Yeah. They kind of really go hand in hand.

Should we have a vote? If you want to vote for it, then we can vote for it. But until we vote for it, I don't have to do it. Should Jeff drink the gravy? I vote no. Yeah. Yeah. Ah! So how many flavors are there?

I mean, I just don't know why you said anything. There are three flavors. I'm going to ram this fucking democracy down all your throats every chance I get. So yeah, maybe we should all just have a sip, and we'll see the titles of each can, and we'll just have to guess which one we've got. Oh. I think that's great. Yeah, I love that.

I think that's great. When do we do this, tomorrow? Uh, yeah. We're playing Gears 5 tomorrow. Yeah, not love that. I think that's great. When do we do this, tomorrow? Yeah. We're playing Gears 5 tomorrow. Yeah, not a lot available tomorrow, but next week. Okay. Okay, next week. We have a stream tomorrow, I just remembered.

Oh. 2 to 5. We do. So we stream on Fridays on Twitch at 2 p.m. Central, roughly. That'll come and go. Times will probably shift or whatever. Because I think I have Gracie available next Friday and if we spring canned gravy taste test on Gracie,

she'll do it. Dude, Gravy Gracie? That's the... Gracie Gracie! She'd be like, they used to call me Gracie Gravy back in high school. I don't know why. I feel like that's a downgrade from British Shackle.

Yeah, I think so. Well, you had something to aspire to, right? You start as Gracie Gravy and you work your way up to British Shackle. I really like the idea of somehow having these mixed in with normal sodas and not knowing what you're going to get until... Oh, it'd be like the Bov thing you did? Yeah, like Dodge the Bov. you did yeah like dodge the bov yeah so it's all the weird sodas and the gravy and so you don't know what weird soda or if it's

weird soda or weird gravy all right just yeah it's just all cans that look this maybe you put koozies to cover i don't know you paint the can i don't know i wonder what else interesting comes in a can you'd have some sort of crazy can roulette. I like that idea. What else can we get in cans? Here's what we should do. We should have a field trip to the international food market and just go fucking hog wild. I love that idea.

What? Rank. You guys rank which gravy you'd want to consume the most to the least in the can. Okay. I'll go through the flavors right now. You got caramelized onion gravy with HP sauce. Chicken gravy is flavor two.

Flavor three is beef gravy. Oh, beef's going at the top for me. I mean, that's just Bovril, isn't it, essentially? Oh, you might be right. Might be very similar. But I love a Bov. Are those the three?

Those are the three. Oh, that's it? Chicken gravy, caramelized onion gravy, and beef. But I love above. Are those the three? Those are the three. Oh, that's it? Chicken gravy, caramelized onion gravy, and beef. They're all good. I would do beef, chicken, caramelized, probably. Yeah. I don't know what the British consider chicken gravy, though. I'd have to see it.

Do you know what I mean? I don't want to drink anything out of a can that has onion on the label. It's just a general rule. The fact that it's caramelized really doesn't make it any better. What if I spent some time in the lab and I developed an onion based drink and I tried to get it to the point where you would enjoy it? I'm in. It would have to be a very sweet onion. There are sweet onions, aren't sweet onion they exist there are sweet onions on yeah there are but like i'm saying sweeter than sweeter than sweet well i mean the onion's just

going to be a component in it right like he can add other sweeteners oh this I bet that's good wait Gavin you just there is so much more that this brand does this brand is all about cans pots oh is pots just like shit in cans it is that is their thing it appears

I just posted a link for they have cooking sauces in cans wow this is enchilada sauce insane I just posted a link for they have cooking sauces and cans. Wow. This is insane. What the fuck? Katsu curry? Shit.

Just one is just sweet and sour. I would drink the sweet and sour. Honestly, the sweet and sour can looks delicious. That looks like a great drink. We've got to get every pot. Their design is crazy. Nick said I'm going sauce monkey mode. Fajita and taco. Dude, they have like liquid death ass cans of stock

Katsu curry Fish stock Dessert sauces Oh god, that's horrific I want to try every single one of these Me too, let's go Stock cans and gravy cans I want to find more weird canned stuff

But you can honestly Do the roulette game with just pots products There's enough I'm trying to think of what would be the worst One to get I think fish stock Fish stock has to be up there It has to be the worst

A can of fish stock With locked in flavor I think sweet and sour would be the easiest to consume. I think ragu would be a lot harder to drink than you think it would. I agree. It would just come out in glugs, right? Yeah, that's going to have to be a wide can hole. Veal stock.

Can we do a hidden camera thing with someone where we make spaghetti and then go to pour the ragu sauce on and you just open a can you crack a can and then pour it over it i just want to see someone's reaction to that happening live oh man it'd be so disturbing this is oh this is gavin you found a great brand yeah i think we got to get Gracie on the cans. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Stuff in cans. So they had this shit locally.

We can get potentially other sauces. Well, I only found the gravy, but yeah, I can go back. Have a look. I mean, you can buy them from this website. When you go back, see if you can pick up an onionade as well. I was reading about it. It sounds pretty good. When you go back, see if you can pick up an onionade as well.

I was reading about it. It sounds pretty good. It's an onion that scientists in Japan created to get rid of all the parts that make you cry and that are bitter, and it's just sweet. And then to show how sweet it is, they created onionade to try to convince people to buy them. Onionade. Oh, man.

This is our second episode ever for this show real real weird one real one that one that i think people are going to call back to for like a long time i think it's weird that you said it was our second episode ever yeah this is our second episode ever it started i put episode two this is our second episode ever but you're like real weird one if you're adhering to that logic we've only done two i don't know exactly it's a real weird one dude that much yeah half of these episodes have been fucking crazy what is this we talked about we talked about time traveling to kill horses last episode yeah but none of that was practical none of it was this has all been practical this is real like having a friendship he got and strong arm just democracy and fish stock in a can like this all seems like this is all stuff that we can

look at this purple stuff classic great pro relaxation formula what the hell is that name good lord calm down relax is that like cbd juice yeah it's gotta be what the hell does that mean? Good lord. Calm down, relax. Is that like CBD juice? Yeah, it's gotta be. What the fuck does super liminal mean? Oh my god. The S is wearing a hat. Super liminal. Like, we're going subliminal with some stuff, but other stuff, we're going fucking super, like

hyperliminal. I think we're in our can era. The maximum threshold of great flavor that the human mind can grasp. Oh, my God. It's a drink that is celestial rather than earthly. I've got to say, unpopular opinion. The grape flavor, it tastes like rancid shit.

I hate whatever that fake grape is. It's so shit. Horrible. I love it. Do you really? Love it, love it, love it, love it, love it. Did you have it as a kid? Grape cola, grape Kool-Aid, grape soda, grape, grape, grape.

Everyone looks at me like I'm crazy when I say it. Maybe I just didn't because I didn't grow up with that. Right. Maybe. Before Jeff says grape, somebody take that audio and throw it over when he drinks the fish sauce, whatever. The fish sauce is going to be rough. That's all.

I don't like fish. Oh man. I don't like fish sauce. How do you get stock from the creature? It's bones, right? The word creature is great. That's so good. isn't stock just heated bone

so they just like take a bunch of fish bones and like melt it all down i think so they you stew it like you put it in with like water and stuff and you let it simmer and reduce uh so that way it's taking on the flavor from bones and other pieces and parts and then you strain it get rid of everything that's like it you know inedible or whatever and then uh you what you have left is a flavored broth they don't call it like fish aid or chicken aid no they don't call it chicken aid no here's a it says uh fish sauce is produced by blending whole oily fish such as anchovies or mackerel with the correct proportion of salt water and spices and then fermented for a period from 1 to 12 months before filtered the end result is a clear light brown liquid with a far more

delicate flavor than the store-bought version that's if you make it at home you just have like a jar of fish in your fridge for a year yeah that's what the image from the article is here you go wow that looks horrific I hate this we're all fucking drinking it next week so yum yum

I fucking hate fish that's so gross I need to borrow your credit card Jeff I think the most disgusting thing that I like is just like tuna from a can or like sardines on toast. Oh, like Nick? I just love that for some reason. Do you have anything that you like

but is so gross you recognize it's gross so you don't allow yourself to eat it anymore? No. I would have put Bovril in that list. Yeah. For me, it's spam I grew up eating spam and I cannot allow

myself to eat it as an adult yeah I get that I have some stuff that is I know is gross to Americans but it's perfectly normal to

the British like beans on toast baked beans on toast love it totally fine that would be good nobody would have an issue with that

in America you sure I don't know about that I mean it's weird weird to you though because wouldn't it wet the bread down oh yeah yeah it's I mean, it's weird to you, though, because wouldn't it wet the bread down? Oh, yeah.

Yeah. I mean, I've got to tackle it quickly. I'm not going to be walking away from it and eating it five minutes later. Okay. But that's how I am with cereal. I really have to concentrate and get it all down. That's how I am with mozzarella sticks.

Oh, really? Yeah, but after they start to cool down, they just go to shit. You've got gotta eat them yeah you you've never seen anyone eat anything as fast as i eat your weetabix because that thing they got about 45 seconds until they start just falling apart on the spoon uh uh just real quick before we wrap up I want to circle back to this I texted Gracie

hey would you drink gravy out of a can her reply hell no why did Nick say he would what she knows me too well I think anyone who knows you would assume that Nick that's true I think that's a surface level Nick thing

it's what people say when they see you they go I don't know much about that guy but I know that's the guy that drinks gravy out of a can we do have a good opportunity here this fish thing has just given me an idea that we should all we could potentially celebrate the one year anniversary

of regulation podcast with some fermented i don't want to wait that long what do you mean we're gonna be doing it then anyway how are you gonna celebrate the one year anniversary before you have to wait that long that's when the one ridiculous so you want to be i want to celebrate this but we don't have a fun celebratory fermentation bit. You fool. I'm saying I don't want us to wait a year to drink the stuff. Not that I want us to accelerate the celebration. But you have to ferment fish sauce for a year. Yeah, but we can just buy it. We can just buy it in the can. No, but I'm saying we could all ferment something different. Oh, I see. I got it. Okay.

I understand now. Sorry. I was looking at exotic sodas. Here's the thing. I don't trust any of us to ferment anything and then drink it in a year. It just seems like it will lead to botulism. Oh, yeah. I got some fries fermenting on my porch.

Okay. It's eight months. Is there like a botulade pill we can take right before we try it? Oh, don't say so. No, botulism is a thing that like kills you, kills you. So no, I'm not doing that. What do we all, all right, so we're not going to do it, but if we did, what would we all ferment?

Ooh. Ooh. Hot sauce? Oh, that's a good one, Nick. Mmm. Can you ferment anything? I assume so. How long does wine take?

I mean like a few months. Yeah. Oh, I get, I How long does wine take? I mean, like, a few months. Yeah. Oh, I mean, like, fruit wine and stuff. Like, it takes longer if you want to do different stuff. Hmm. Would any fruit you ferment turn into alcohol? I think so. I mean, depending on the sugars.

Because I'd be fucked. I can't be getting drunk. Beets. I'm going to ferment beets. I bet they won't be. Beets is a good one. I think I would do like peppers and carrots. Like together. So that way you get like a spicy carrot kind of thing.

I like that. How long does a pickle? How long? That's wild, isn't it? At least. I think it kind of depends, you know? Six months? Oh, wait. How long was Seth Rogen in the thing

200 years or something I think so I'm going to ferment a pack of Kool-Aid gummies oh my god dank mart I googled weird

sodas and I'm exploring do you often shop at dank mart? I've never Dank Mart. I googled weird sodas, and I'm exploring. Yo, what's up? You guys going to Dank Mart later? Do you often shop at Dank Mart? I've never shopped before, but they've got my interest. If you say so, man. I don't know who might argue. DankMart.ca. So it's a Canadian mart.

Yeah. We should wrap this one up because we got another one to do. But this was a great one. You can make a pickle in about three weeks. Maybe we should have a pickle off. Everybody make their own pickle. See if you can make the best pickle. Again, I don't trust any of our

fermentation. I'm not doing anything that's fermenting. I was pretty clear about that. We could do some research. It's not that I don't think we couldn't learn. It's that I don't trust us to fucking nail it the first time and it's botulism i just don't trust gus pickled and he didn't get botulism yeah i think there was one he threw out for fear of botulism i think that could happen sure right jesus christ wrap this up i i like that tell people where to subscribe to us and everything that's what I'm saying.

I'm sorry, Gavin, go ahead. I was just saying, I think we're in a much better position than we were in last week. And thanks to all the crazy support after, well, pre-episode one and post-episode one, I'm so excited about the stuff that we can now do. Like pickling things. Like pickling things. If Eric will let us. If democracy will allow us.

You can do it. I'm not eating or partaking in it. That's all I'm saying. You can vote all you want. I stand firm on this. Can I test out the bleep from like a pickle? You're going to, well, can we say to subscribe to us at patreon.com slash regulation podcast and listen to the podcast and check us out everywhere and now you can test the beep? Yeah. Is that you having

said it all now? Yeah, I think so. Okay. I'm going to test the bleep. Alright. See if we got it back. Okay. F*** face.
