You're gonna either get mad at us for not inviting you
or if we'd invited you, you would've been like,
fuck no, I'm not gonna do that.
We didn't invite him Disney, didn't we?
No, I think so.
No, I said we're going to Disney and I asked if you're down
and you're like, no.
No, I'm pretty sure you're leaving.
You're leaving, that's why you guys are coming in.
Yeah, you guys are coming in the first part.
We're saying a day after.
Oh, gosh, I'm gonna go to...
Your excuse makes sense.
Disney World. This is you you the protection
But then we're going what's the Star Wars thing we're going?
We're going to galactic nights. That was called us
Which I don't know it has the hell they've been doing that for this is Star Wars party
What is that it's a Star Wars party like Disney? It's at the Hollywood the Disney and Hollywood studios
They like to keep it open late and I think they have like a bunch of Star Wars related
shit.
You have like a rave with lightsabers and shit?
Evacuate.
You're probably not far off from the truth.
I'm going to, I'm going to, we're going to do like casual Star Wars cosplay slash
just normal clothes.
Yes.
Like I'm going to do like casual Hansello.
And I'm going to steal Tony Simonetta's outfit he made for his Star Wars marathon.
Oh, just like a Negro retweeted like a sexy Kylo, a male sexy Kylo Ren. and I'm gonna steal Tony Simonetta's outfit he made for his Star Wars marathon.
Jessica Negri retweeted like a sexy Kylo,
a male sexy Kylo Ren drawing.
Yes.
You should dress up like that.
Yes.
Get Jessica's outfit she wore in her photo and you wear it.
And we'd have to modify it
because I don't think it would cover junk.
No, she retweeted another drawing.
That was like a different interpretation.
This one.
Yes.
Oh, that's a, that's shown off a lot.
Yeah, we're good to go do that.
Yeah.
Have you been to mega con for?
No.
So we went to mega con a couple of times when,
I hope I sent that image to the right person. Uh, I say that to myself all the time.
Hopefully, we went,
we reached to the went to Megacond a couple of times
years ago when we were first starting out,
but we would cycle through events and Megacond
never came up in like the rotation of events that I went.
You just didn't go.
Right, I would go to other Florida events,
but other people would go to Megacond
and I wouldn't go to it.
I'm just really glad that we finally get to all four of other people would go to Megacond, and I wouldn't go to it. I'm just really glad that we finally
get to all four of us best friends go to Megacond.
You know, that's how you should-
That's how you should-
That's like Borat meets Kylo Ren.
No, he wasn't Borat.
My wife!
Oh yeah, that was the man that saved it!
Man that saved it!
Yeah, so I've never been, I'm interested to-
What's that?
There's the funny tweet that was out there that was recently read that it was like the dialogue Yeah, so I've never been. I'm interested to see it.
There's the funny tweet that was out there.
There's recently read that it was like the dialogue kind of
tweets where it's like a guy talking to his like therapy.
If I am, I was told that if I impersonate Borat anymore,
then I will get a divorce and the therapist goes,
by who?
It's like it's his whole spread.
Yeah.
I'm gonna change it to my other shirt
because this one's going to be able to breathe.
If you bend over, it doesn't just ride up.
I wonder, I don't think I can rip out of it.
It's messy.
Yeah, it's cool too.
But the Americans, like, huge, right?
It's like a massive.
Jeff Goldblum's going.
Oh, really?
I hope we get to meet him.
Speaking of Nekr, I think Jessica's gonna be there as well.
Really?
Yeah.
Can they come to Disney with us?
Can I have a Ryan from Everett Day?
I'd like a Ryan from Everett Day.
You can have him every other weekend.
Yeah, it's been a long time since I've done a-
This is the cut broadcast.
An event in Florida, so I'm convention in Florida,
so I'm excited to check it out.
I will.
I'm putting this on.
I don't lack my body.
Goodbye. You've been climbing real good though. I've been climbing. You've been lifting real good. I will not be putting this on. I don't lack my body, goodbye.
You've been climbing real good though.
I've been climbing.
You've been lifting real good.
I've been climbing and lifting.
Oh, as I talked to my friend behind a chair.
Yeah, we're getting there.
We're getting there.
Someday, I will like me.
Someday.
You know, you should like you.
I know I should. I like me and look at this. I know. I should like you. I know I should.
I like me and look at this.
I got jiggles.
I wish I had your body confident.
Because no matter,
like you just always just no matter what, don't care.
And I appreciate that.
Once you reach the level of like,
I'm good here.
I can maintain this or I can sink back down
into like gaining some pounds, but I know that I can at least reach I can maintain this, or I can sink back down into gaining some pounds,
but I know that I can at least reach back up to this point.
That's where I'm at, and that's fine.
Right now, I'm like, people can be like,
oh, fucking blame, but right now,
I feel like I'm on the,
you try it, no you lose.
I'm not cutting right now, I'm not cutting right now,
and I'm just eating. It's soft.
Yeah, and I'm eating whatever, and that's fine.
And I still like it look okay.
And like that's okay, but like, you know,
I think you look okay.
Yeah, but like, well, no, what I'm saying is like,
I should not be making those kind of jokes
because that's me perpetuating a mental state
that I deal with as well.
We're constantly like, I have one moment
out of every hundred moments where I'm like,
I like me.
And then the rest time I'm like, I'm shit, that's all this.
So I really should not be saying things like that to you.
But yeah, it's just one of those things.
I posted a really good picture of your butt today.
Yeah, I saw that.
Once you reach that level where it's maintenance
and you're just gonna be happy, you're gonna enjoy it.
I hope, yeah.
The point where I feel like I would get to that point
is if I could finally someday match
good get rid of my love handles.
I've had love handles my entire life.
And no matter how much I have lost here
and I've gotten a flatter stomach
or no matter how much my chest has grown or anything like that,
I still have this weird silhouette
where it just goes, boom, and then it goes down.
No matter what.
And I'm like, just something get rid of those
because everything else is getting on the train.
Everything else is getting on the train of getting into shape.
Those are like, now, fuck you, we stay.
Yeah.
Those are their panes.
Peter, he did it already.
Just want to say it's already done.
It's already done.
That's amazing.
I wish we could have some sort of like we could submit Peter to
some sort of gift making competition.
Did he do the orgasm one?
I couldn't hear it very well. I don't want to try to.
Oh, was there audio?
Yeah, there was audio.
Didn't know he'd...
Yeah, I don't know.
Yeah, I heard it.
Yeah, I heard it.
I don't have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have
to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have
to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have
to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have

have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have to have have to have to have to have and I don't know who it is, but it's a male. And they are pissing on top of the urinal.
I noticed that.
I did see who's doing it.
They clean it off.
They clean it off, but then it always gets up there.
So it's either someone really tall
with zero control over their penis,
or it's somewhere, they're really tall
with a really small penis.
Maybe.
And it like, that's where it ends right there
on top of the urinal.
I got another possibility.
Maybe they have an erection.
Yeah, then you'll like the lean thing.
Having a penis with an erection.
It's never convenient, but-
It's never convenient.
If you're peeing with an erection,
you would get a lot more up there. Yeah. It's never like a flood.
Oh, they have the video. Maybe what maybe what are we looking at that?
Maybe mega kill.
A rampage headshot. Maybe one of the best visual
gags from movies that still saves me to the state is a four-year-old virgin when Steve Kr Carl's character sits down after hungover when he always does morning whatever day and then peas right
There's a me myself and Irene did that whereas like post like why am I peeing like I just had sex all night
Yeah, cuz he's cuz he's with his like he like uses a mirror or a picture for him to like guide
I saw that film in the theater.
And I don't think I've seen it again
since it came out of the show.
It's not a very good movie.
No, I remember leaving him be like,
no, that was not great.
That's on the ass end of the Farley Brothers,
like 90s, like control over the comedy film genre.
Yeah, they did a couple of things they did.
Ciao, Hal.
No, I felt like they had another kid.
That another big one I forgot about. I mean, what were there? What were the father brothers
like actually really good successful movies? I mean, Dumb and Dumber. They did. Oh, Dumber
Dumber's them. They can't use a kingpin or the one where they with the bowling kingpin.
Dumber Dumber was their P.A.s. The resistance. What?
Dumber. South of America. South of America.
Yeah. Well, yeah, that's right. Yeah. Dumber resistance. What? Some of them are in the area. Some of them are in the area. Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.

Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area.
Some of them are in the area. Some of them are in the area. Some of them are in the area. Some of them are in the area. Some of them are in the area. Some of them are in the area. it's Jeff Daniels. Like obviously Jim Carrey impresses you in that movie because he's just funny,
but like Jeff Daniels not being a comedian, not being a comedic actor and not really even doing it
very much since then, but still like throwing into that role next to Jim Carrey and he's not like
left in the dust by Jim at any point. No, that movie is so if I'm flipping through the TV and
dumb and dumbers on like I stop on dumb and dumb. Like I will always put that on.
There's a there's a theater and Alamo draft house in town that every time I've gone
there, it's been a shit fucking movie. And I saw dumb and dumb or two there. But I also
saw like I think I saw 50 shades of gray like dumb and dumb or is that what you mean?
The second one. Yeah. With the with uh, uh, carry in. Oh, we dumb and dumb and
number two was the,
and the dumb and dumb were was-
Right, that's cool.
So confusing.
And I saw, I saw 50 shades of gray there
and then I also saw a fucking suicide squad there.
He's just like, every time I go there-
He needs to stop going with that theater.
I need to, I think it's a curse theater.
Mueller's got a good track record.
I will say this though,
I have learned something about myself as a movie fan.
I obviously hate it when I go to a movie
and I'm expect I really want I go to a movie and I'm
expect I really want this movie to be good and I go and it it fails and it's bad and I come out like
unsatisfied. I have now learned that if I already know a franchise or movies going to be bad and
that's what I'm signing up for and I'm going to go see a bad movie, I can have a fantastic.
Tell about setting those expectations appropriate. Like seeing the the new mummy. I knew it's going to be
crap and I was looking so forward to it and I went inside. It was great. That's how I feel about Tell about setting those expectations appropriate. Like seeing the new mummy, I knew it was gonna be crap,
and I was looking so forward to it,
and I went inside, it was great.
That's how I feel about the next Jurassic World.
I am so excited about this pile of dirt.
That's a mindset that I have towards everything in life.
Or if you go in with like really shit low expectations,
it can only go better.
Like things will like surprise you at how good they can be.
But if you're expecting nothing
then you're just like,
what did I do with everything?
Prado actually says that the new God of War
is like keep your expectations low.
That's something.
And I was like, that's, yeah, I live by that.
There was a, what was it?
The mummy was supposed to kick off
or was it the dark universe?
Or yeah, the dark, the dark universe,
cinematic universe.
Cinematic universe.
But apparently they had already tried
to launch the dark cinematic universe.
Yeah.
Dracula untold.
And it ended with a cliffhanger,
like the guy was like,
let the games begin.
Yep.
And then they're like, right, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Everyone wants to have that fucking universe, that cinematic universe. They want their end, don't.
Everyone sees what Marvel's doing.
Like, we want that too, but everyone wants to jump
too fast into it.
They took a set, or they took a cast photo
for the dark universe.
And it was like Johnny Depp and Tom Cruise,
and Pavier Barton, like a bunch of big names.
And yeah, I guess they had this whole...
Has anybody else gotten close to the success of the MCU
as far as creating it?
Like everyone keeps trying.
Like even King Kong's Skull Island ends
with that slideshow presentation of all the other monsters.
Oh, God, those are in that, right?
Yeah, and like, monster in that kind of thing.
Has anybody else like act like with their attempts succeeded?
Which you, technically, X-Men.
Would you consider... That's not extended universe?
I guess would you consider what Star Wars is doing with Rogue One and Al Solo?
I would.
I would.
I would.
I think I'll consider it more once they start having new characters and new stories like
with the John Favreau series, but they say it's supposed to be between Jedi and Force Awakens.
Right.
Also, I wouldn't consider the Star Wars 1 through 9, a cinematic universe.
It's just a series. Just like I wouldn't consider the fast franchise a cinematic universe.
Oh, you better be careful. Tim Gettys will show up.
No, I'm not saying that they're bad, although we'll argue that till the dying breath.
That it's just a franchise. A shared,
cinematic universe is like Iron Man is a movie and has its own series.
Captain America's is a movie has its own series
and then they all come together in shared moments,
but no one else does that.
Except Marvel.
I think there's like a DC has done it on TV.
What?
The flashers, basically, are the Arrowverse, Arrowverse.
Oh, I thought you were talking about like
the animated series because like there was some
where they'd have,
there is.
The man appear on Batman, Batman,
we remember when the Harlem Globe Charters would be on Scooby Doo sometime? Hell yeah. Those were just like, there was some where they'd have the man appear on Batman, Batman, but when the Harlem Globetrotters
would be on Scooby Doo sometimes.
Hell yeah.
Those were just like,
the same thing.
No, our Phyllis Diller would show up
and I was like, I'm eight years old
and I don't know who Phyllis Diller is
but she's really funny.
Flintstones would be on the Jetsons and vice versa.
That was a shared thing, yeah.
But what about, I guess Deadpool's kind of,
I haven't seen Deadpool two yet.
X-Men's probably the close now.
They're kind of doing it with,
yeah, with X-Men,
they're doing a lot of the crossover stuff.
He makes references to the other movies in there
and then also makes references to the Wolverine movies.
And so, yeah, actually Deadpool,
I mean, Wolverine, I guess, to a certain extent,
because Logan is definitely a shared event.
But yeah, so X-Men I guess has done it
and has gotten,
and there's also those other Wolverine movies
that weren't good.
The, yeah. Well, I mean, all the Wolverine movies that weren't good. The, yeah.
Well, I mean, all the Wolverine movies
were not good except for Louis.
Yeah, Louis games only one.
No, there was Wolverine origins, this dog shit.
I thought the Wolverine wasn't terrible.
Was the Wolverine the one where he goes to Japan?
Yeah.
Oh, it was awful.
Yeah, I was.
I was very awful.
The silver samurai, like a big ol' robot at the end.
Bleh. He had that movie.
Yeah, it's bad, I agree, it's terrible.
I know there's some cool shit.
Remember that part when he's surrounded by ninjas
and they all had arrows in him
and he's getting pulled in all these directions
with all these arrows?
Yeah, that's cool.
That was a cool moment.
Dude, they made some cool moments.
Justice League.
Justice League had a couple of cool moments.
Aw, shit.
Yeah, the movie can work.
There was an X-Men Wolverine game. Justices League. Justices League had a couple of cool moments. Aw, shit. Yeah. The whole movie can work.
There was, there was an X-Men Wolverine game.
I think it was after Origins.
There's been two really good fucking Wolverine games.
Yeah. You played those?
Yeah, that one had a great commercial, too.
That was like the first person perspective.
I think Rupert Sanders directed it.
Like the first person perspective where he's escaping prison.
That's been the joke is that the game's been better than the movie.
Yeah.
They didn't make one for Logan though.
I guess that would have been like really sad.
Just been putting down a lot.
You have to die at the end.
You have to give pills to Professor X
and make sure he takes them.
Oh, otherwise, like, is that little eater fills up
and then he has an episode.
Right, we're past like Logan spurs this point, right?
So what if you did the game and you had to have a point
where you just had to fight Professor Xavier and kill him at the end. No, no, just professor Xavier were like a
dimmented. Oh, that's so sad. That's so uh, speaking of which, uh, we just recorded a uh, uh, review
for uh, Deadpool two. That comes out this way. Oh, did you see it? A dead. Did you like it? A dead.
I heard that they like did pick up shots to like play up like Domino and stuff
because she was apparently really cool.
I don't know about the pickup shots
for you, Domino.
I know there was rumor that they had done pickup shots
to fix it because if people's reactions to early screens,
but then that was later debunked is not actually true.
Yeah.
They might have done some pickups to like
play up something, but move generally really good.
I, yeah, I don't want to really hear about it.
But it looks like you said, keep those expectations low.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just get stuck.
Yeah, I thought the first one was okay.
I think I wasn't as crazy about it as most people.
I thought it was fine.
I think maybe I had that situation where it was overhyped
for me. I didn't watch it right away.
Anyone talked about how great it was,
and I think I sit my expectations too high,
which is my fault.
I wouldn't have got a war with no expectations.
I was just like, yeah, this will be a game.
Oh my God, it's so good.
It's really good.
It's so good.
I need a PlayStation.
I don't have a PlayStation.
I haven't owned a PlayStation since two.
Oh.
And like,
You never played like last of us?
No, never played last of us.
No, never played uncharted.
I've never even played a two-way game.
I'm rising. Oh, the two-meterider games are good. I have the recent one. I have the
recent one on PC and I just keep not playing it. You know how we do with Steam Games,
where it's like, it's there. I could play it. I own it. I paid for it. I just haven't
played it. But like between God of War and Horizons are gone and the numerous other ones
and then like Spider-Man's on the horizon.
I'm just like, I need to play that Spider-Man game.
You need to support PlayStation
because as a film fan,
PlayStation's like one of the last people
I think that's supporting, well, no, there's Nintendo,
but they're really supporting like strong single player
campaigns and narratives, which I'm like all for.
That's like, I'm not a very good video game player. I don't do very well in multiplayer games. I like like all for. That's like, I'm, yeah. I'm not a very good video game player.
I don't do very well in multiplayer games.
I like single-player narratives.
For Rainbow Six, yeah, even Rainbow Six.
Pub G's the only place I can be decent.
That's all.
Just get a free PlayStation.
Like I did.
I need to, how do you do those?
Where's the site?
You get pranks by Chris and Bernie and then,
yeah, it feels pity for you and throws you on.
Okay.
With someone in chat on the website
said we talk about movies too much.
I think I don't think we talk about movies enough.
What should we talk about instead of movies?
We should talk about more movies.
We should talk about movies.
I saw a good movie.
Before that, before we talk about movies,
we should talk about Squarespace.

Do you think you could smother somebody to death with this pillow? Yes. Yes.
What did you see this weekend? I went and saw RBG, the doc on Ruth Bade Ginsburg. How was that?
It was so good. The Ruth Bade Ginsburg was a, I almost had the word character, but she's a
I, the Ruth B. Ginsberg was like, I've almost had the word character,
but she's a historical figure at this point
and someone still lives.
That is once people that like,
I know I should admire this person.
I know there's someone of importance in history
and in my actual current space right now,
but I've not taken the time to actually learn about them
and know much about them.
I know that just from the people around me
and how they react to this person,
I should admire this person, but I don't know much about them. I know that just from the people around me and how they react to this person, I should admire this person, but I don't know anything about them.
So I went in and knew very little about her career and was amazed by what she has done
in the, you know, the Supreme Court space and everything like that. And did not expect
to like be so emotionally, have such a strong emotional reaction to the film because of what it dealt
with and what it brought up.
And she's one of my heroes now.
She works out.
And an 84 year old woman is at the gym wanting to put some muscle weight on.
That's cool.
I was talking to a friend there talking about this program called Silver Shoes where it's
like old people getting together and doing workout stuff.
He's a hardcore shit.
But the doc was made masterfully and it's so good
and she's such an interesting character in her career.
It's just amazing to follow through.
And so I highly recommend going to the RDG.
I didn't realize it just opened not that long ago
and limited release.
No, limited release.
It's one of those ones that Alamo is really pushing
when they find ones that they really want to promote.
It's definitely one of theirs.
So I want to see that.
You mentioned not like keeping up
with like current events and stuff like that.
I'm trying to make a more like a better effort
of like keeping up with daily news and stuff like that.
So like I'll tell my echo to give me a news flash.
I have to tell it to shut up most of the time
because this shit is so sad.
Yeah.
And I just like it'd be like 14 people die today.
I'm like, oh God, stop, stop.
And it's like, hey, what happened in Gaza today?
That's fun.
Yeah.
And, uh,
and a more lighthearted subject.
Ah!
There's something else I wanted to talk about
that we're working on internally.
We're in, we're in, are you talking about pilots?
Yeah.
We're in pilots month's happening.
I'm just wondering, so so far,
what do we really, we just really sub branded?
We did branded and that's all,
that's all it's been out so far.
Today is Monday, which means next one is Gork.
Oh, maybe we should talk about Gork.
Maybe we should talk about Gork.
So we have the intro available on.
Oh, do we?
Yeah, we can show the intro, right?
To the people on stream.
I think I'm getting a thumbs up.
Yeah, yeah, let's show them the intro.
Now we know what Gorg's about.
In 1983, Earth's top scientists set out
to create a supercomputer which could answer every question.
Instead, they accidentally built a machine
which knew almost nothing
and could only generate random questions.
This generator of random questions, or Gork,
was the first supercomputer.
A super, stupid computer.
Gork's appetite for knowledge was insatiable,
but his questions were so dumb and annoying,
the scientist trapped him in his own universe
with a provision he could only win his freedom
once he learned the answers to every question.
Welcome to Gorg's Quest.
So I think that's the first time we're showing that.
So we got Todd out here, who's showrunner on the show
and kind of putting things together to talk with us
a little bit about Gorg's Quest.
Showrunner and Gorg handler from one of here.
I stole all of Todd's hair.
I was looking really good.
I was looking down at him the roof by the way. I was like, man, I don't know what that's
like.
Actually, you're one of my four dads from the episode of Hamsawa, me and my boy dad.
Well, back to your mom that day.
Why did you say we're supposed to promote Gork's quest?
She's a subject.
So what's the show all about? Gork's quest stars kind of as the,
his origin story, as you guys saw,
showed a, you know, kind of a stupid, super computer
who's trapped in this universe.
So the opposite of the supercomputer
in like, hit trackers guy, the galaxy,
which is supposed to answer the one big question.
Gork just asks every question.
Yeah, so he has to learn the answer to every question
before he can be released. So he, we made a contract with him. He's kind of a diva. There's a long
writer and all that. We basically have a panel of Rooster Teak people, a rotating host.
Blaine's gonna be one of the hosts, you know, if we get picked up for the season. And just sort of
cycle out and we have really funny conversations and sort of a loose game show.
Concept, how dare you make a game?
It's not I have the game show circuit figured out.
Okay.
It's not like the official game show.
Rooster TV.
Don't worry.
Gorka still trapped.
Yeah.
You can't fully bust out.
You yes, a way to go until I think he learns all the answers.
Although we were just talking about Shared Cinematic Universe
is if Gork's quest gets picked up for full seasons,
then we could have the whole crossover kind of thing
at some point where Gork and me,
almost like when Mark was in Happy Days
and that kind of thing.
Wow, that's going back pretty far.
I haven't even heard.
Mark, Mark, Mark, Mark, Mark, Mark is Gork.
Is that part of it? Gork is a real handful. I'm more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, Is Gork's story gonna be something where he like we have to teach while he asks this questions We teach him how to be human and to not be such an asshole. I think we might have an example
Do we have an example? We have another clip from the show actually. It's not just NASA footage
We're just gonna show the whole
Piler right now. Can we cue that up? Is it going just a piece of the topic? My topic was ghost. Oh
Half those in my universe.
Okay.
We don't have those in this universe either.
Yes, ghost everywhere.
Don't you have an entire show about ghosts?
No, I'm not.
It's a sketch week.
You already know there's no ghosts?
What's with the show then?
You need skeptics.
You know how I'm going to eat them? Okay, here we go. He needs skeptics. He's even all over the world.
Okay, here we go.
Uh, one, two, go.
Have you ever peed on a ghost by accident?
Yes.
Why do ghosts always hang out in hotels?
Uh, because that's where they died.
What is an updated password ghost should use instead of boo?
Uh, heyo!
Oh my god, that's a telemizing.
Would you shake yourself on the spot if you saw the ghost of an elephant?
No, I think that's Brad!
I like the term immediately put his foot in his mouth.
Yeah, like during the month where his pilot of his show is going to come out.
That's about ghosts.
So that's cool.
It's coming out this week tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow 11 a.m. Central 11 a.m. Central on
the Rooster.com site.
Gorg's Quest. Check it out.
First members.
Yeah.
Well, I'm excited about that.
What else we got coming out this?
Uh, probably a brand new a Gorg.
We got two hunters murder room
Murder room and MDB animated animated that's what that's what that's really
No, I'm excited for all of them. This is like a lot of fun stuff. Thanks for giving us a little sneak peek
Yeah, before to go I go clean up gorg's bed
Trash I go clean up Gorks bed, trash, and I do all sorts of stuff.
Classic.
Oh, does he have a trailer?
Oh, yeah, it's a wreck, dude.
Red Bulls everywhere.
It's a pig.
You guys can.
Condoms.
Yeah.
It doesn't need them.
He's trying to understand them.
I think people will like them, but you know, I really have to bear the burden.
Okay, that's fine.
I think you take a little bit.
Thanks for helping us out with that.
Thanks guys.
See you.
So back to movies
No, I have actually a story that involves movies, but not actually. It's not about the movie itself. Okay
So I went out to LA
A fucking brag about it. Yep. I so I went to LA like I do all the time
And hung out with with fun house for a few days. We filmed more bragging
Is that bragging? Yeah.
I hung out with fun house and we filmed like an episode
of on the spot and their new space out there.
And one of the nights we're out there,
they had a fan meetup.
And so we were all at a Dave and Busters.
And near the end of it when it was like,
when it was a dying down, Bruce texted me,
I was staying at his place and he texted me,
he's like, hey, it's like around like nine o'clock.
He's like, there's a, this is Thursday night,
the premiere of Infinity War.
And he's like, hey, there's a 930 showing
of 3D Infinity War upstairs,
the theater upstairs, this place that we're at,
we're like in the mall.
Do you wanna go see it?
I was like, yeah, I totally wanna go see it.
And I had seen it with the preview screening,
we got to see with the no,
but I was like totally down to see it again.
And so rushed out, when it got my ticket,
found him in the theater and sat down.
It was so exciting,
because I love watching movies, Bruce.
I've seen a couple, we got in a go,
it had a chance with him a few times
and he's a fun guy to go with
and I was excited to see the movie again.
We're still there talking.
Time comes, light dim, trailers pop up,
five seconds of trailers play,
and then everything dims again, and lights start flashing.
And it was a red!
Yeah.
We hear what lights are flashing like the house lights
or the protectors?
The emergency lights.
The house lights.
No, someone pulled a fire alarm.
And so we were all sitting there in the theater
and middle school.
Yeah, we were trying to figure out if,
like what do you do?
Do we leave, like is it a real fire alarm?
Did someone pull a fire alarm?
I like that that's the initial response
to any time a fire alarm is pulled.
Like people sit and then they're just like,
is this real?
It's because it's the air of its weights.
It's an unfortunate system that can be triggered
by idiots, Not the actual
fires. Yeah, the the concern that it's for
Disaster that's for so we sat there and waited and and
Saw of like some is gonna happen lady came in said. Yeah, someone pulled the alarm
Movie will restart in like five 10 minutes. We're like cool. We're gonna see the movie
Five 10 minutes go by nothing happens. So Bruce goes out there to find out what's happening,
talks to someone, texts me, that like they say,
like another five minutes and it's gonna go.
And then I wait another five minutes and Bruce texts me,
or it comes back and he's like, actually said,
it might be another hour.
Oh my God.
Before the movie's gonna start.
And so this is also the night before I had an early morning
flight and Infinity War is a three hour movie essentially.
And I was like, and I've seen it.
And I've seen it.
And so now we're at like 9.50, almost 10 o'clock, which means the movie will get out around
one if it were to start.
And but then like an hour wait.
So we wait a few more minutes and eventually we're like, okay, movie's not going to happen.
So we walked out and the entire theater, the entire like movie theater itself was emptying
all theaters out and everyone was leaving and is an entire parade of people.
It was an excess of people and it was also Thursday night.
It's someone had ruined an entire theater's worth people's
night of Infinity War and had them all have to leave.
The premiere night.
Yeah, first night.
Had ruined that entire experience for people.
Do you think there was so many of those disgruntled
that they didn't get to take it or something?
I don't know, some idiot, that kind of thing.
Maybe someone who was disgruntled like that? They didn't get to take it or something? I don't know, some idiot, that kind of thing. Maybe someone who was gruntled.
What made the night extra interesting slash annoying
was something I'm sure that you would blow your mind about.
That's right.
The entire time we were waiting in the theater
before the movie started
and then during that whole kind of purgatory space
where we were waiting to see if it was gonna start,
Bruce and I are sitting in our seats.
One row up and about 10 seats left.
Gentlemen was seeing the movie by himself
and decided that before the movie started
and while we're waiting during the fire alarm
that he wanted to listen to his music,
but he wasn't listening to his music through headphones.
He was just listening to his music through his phone speaker
and he was just playing a generic,
I guess hip hop music
at a loud enough volume that we all could hear it
and didn't have a choice
whether or not we were to experience this musical time.
Awesome.
And so that was like adding to the whole like,
I'm not really having a good time right now.
Yeah, I hate that.
Sometimes I see people in like the supermarket
walking around shopping and they've got like their speaker
phone on and they're playing music from their phone.
I'm like, what are you doing?
I was getting the new iPhone from Best Buy
because my other one was shitting out.
Well, actually, I was like on the verge of a breakup
because my girlfriend couldn't hear me
over my current, my existing phone
because every time a call was like,
I'm shacking up.
She said it was just like that fucking annoying.
It got to the point where we started correlating
shitty phone calls with each other.
Yeah.
So like she was like, you need to go get your phone fixed.
So I went and got a new phone.
Anyways, while I was out there, I saw that I don't know who's making it, but they have this thing.
It's basically a collar that goes around your neck and it has speakers that shoot music up into your face.
No.
And I was like, and I asked the guys, like, is that what I think is this?
Is this those speakers that play into your ears?
And he's like, yeah, it's like this new thing.
And I was like, that's the dumbest shit I've ever seen.
That is the modern boom box on your shoulder
going down the street.
To be fair, I turned it on, I walked away.
And you couldn't hear it as well,
but you could definitely still hear it.
It was like an iPhone speaker's worth of volume.
So we have a poll set up for people
that can go to receipts.com slash play
and they can vote as to whether or not
we talk about movies too much.
Hi.
So if your only works if you're watching live right now,
if you're a first member at receipts,
you can go to receipts.com slash play
and give us a vote.
Let us know if we talk about movies too much
and it'll update live on the RS with our community.
I have plenty of other movies to talk about.
In the meantime, can I propose a question, you guys?
Go for it.
There's a conversation I'll allow you,
and I got in over this weekend.
I was the poll already up.
So, if the person that you were dating
or guessing your situation that you were married to,
oh, I guess we don't talk about movies enough,
keep your eyes shut.
Keep your eyes shut. I was going to pull the pulse very straight.
Oh my God.
If the person you were, would you be cool
if the person you were dating
or a friend drugged you?
What?
How would you ever be cool with that?
I don't know.
That's the question.
Give me, give, like.
Give me a positive example of this.
I don't know. Okay, I I will I'm about to kill someone
Because a lot of us like they drug me so I stop and calm down and don't kill someone
Maybe but they know my example was like what if like a lot of came up behind me
It's just like see you in two hours like put the scarf over face. I'm like
Feel bad and I passed out and then I wake up and I'm like, and I'm like a cool escape room or something.
And it's like all the surprise from my birthday.
No, that'd be cool.
No, I'm down to that.
I'm down to that.
No, or if you're like in,
like if somebody gave you like a weed brownie
and you're like, hey, we're gonna cut loose tonight.
We're gonna have fun.
And then, you know, like while you're eating this brownie
and then they're like, by the way, it's weed brown.
No, no, no.
Well, you know, of course it's cool,
that's absolutely not.
And you should not be cool with it. Well, no, I'm not saying Well, you'll of course, that's cool. Absolutely not. And you should not be cool with it.
Well, no, I'm not saying like, I would never want to get drunk.
And I'm not downplaying like, people who get drugged at clubs,
like that's fucking awful, that's atrocious.
But like, my argument was that people that I trust,
I feel like they would have the best intentions.
No, no, no.
There's a hard no, there's a hard, hard no.
No, no, no.
Oh, baby, that's our next poll.
No, it's not, yeah, yeah, yeah. Would you make that a poll because the no, no. Oh, baby, that's our next poll. No, it's not. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Would you make that a poll because the answer is no.
No one should ever drug anybody without their consent.
Yes, I agree and I told her I would never drug her.
It's like, absolutely not.
But I, like, I would trust that Alana
would drug me in a responsible way
and I would have fun.
That's a different conversation.
That's a different conversation. That's you trying to imply how much trust you have in your girlfriend
by having that conversation with her.
That is not a conversation of,
hey, do you think you'd be okay if someone you loved would drug you?
He's like, no, that's not okay.
Well, she said she, if I did to her,
not that I said that I would or that whatever,
she was just like, I would be pissed off no matter what.
She was like, I would probably break up with you
if it was early in her relationship.
But now she would just be really, really pissed off and stuff.
Oh, no, don't never do that.
I don't know.
I think there's situations where we kind of don't.
So it looks like we don't talk about movies enough
to segue away from Blaine's awful question.
Oh.
So yeah, in your face, I think it was Steve-O on the website.
We don't talk much too much.
So I was listening to Gork talk,
we're watching the bit of the episode.
And it made me think about that.
Did you all see that Google Duplex demonstration
that Google had last week?
Yes.
Is it like a new home?
No.
No, it's like functionality that Google Assistant
is gonna have.
This was one of those experiences
where I watched the video and went immediately from,
this is awesome to, oh no.
Oh, it was at the ethnicity one?
No, no, no, you could tell your call one.
Yeah, you could tell the assistant
that the example they gave was.
Robert, assistant.
Google Assistant.
That's the voice thing.
Okay, okay.
You could tell it to schedule you a haircut
on Tuesday anytime between 10 a.m.
and noon. And it will on its own without you doing anything. It will call the barber shop for you
and speak to a real human on your behalf and schedule everything for you and then let you know
when it's done. And they gave a lie of a metal life. They gave supposedly a real world example of
it. And it was fucking weird. It was amazing on a technological basis alone.
It's like, this is amazing to watch happen.
I can't believe we have.
It seems like something out of the future.
Yeah, so futuristic.
Like the robot voice sound really natural,
even through in some human tendencies of throwing
in ums or pauses and that kind of thing.
No. Yeah. Um, and was able to respond to, you know, the very, uh, uh, uh, uh,
business like conversation you have with someone over the phone making appointment.
It was able to have that kind of a conversation because very structured, very structured conversation.
Well, they also gave a less than stiller example after that. I don't know if you saw the
other one. No, I see a second one. If you asked it if it was a robot, what would it say?
I don't remember.
They said they're going to update it to clarify
that it makes it known.
That was everyone's thing.
It didn't express that it just said I'm calling for this person.
For a client or someone.
Yeah.
So like my question is though, you have like an echo
and you have your Google assist.
Would you trust them if they drugged you?
Nest.
Do they trust you enough to let you give them a computer virus.
Oh, man, did you see, so then we're talking about like this virtual assistant thing.
There was something else I saw last week, which is actually I thought pretty scary.
I just see the thing that they're calling, what do they call it?
Dolphin attack, where they realized that these assistants,
you know, that listen to your voice,
I don't want to say their names,
because I don't want to trigger everyone.
Yeah, yeah.
But these assistants that listen to your voice
and that you can talk to can hear frequencies
that humans can't hear.
So there's a new proof of concept attack
where you can use a supersonic speaker
that's inaudible to humans to
to project commands to
Oh, no.
So you can't hear it.
It sounds silent.
But then like the assistant pocket,
the assistant activates and like,
we'll make a phone call or order something.
But they can patch that though.
Like they could just tell your phone to ignore this.
But it's it's so then there was a nut.
So then there was a another jumping off then there was another jumping off from there
where there was another proof of concept
where they would embed the commands in a video
or in music.
So it's like the audio to you sounds pretty normal.
Like it might sound like a little fucked up,
but there's commands hidden in there
that the assistants pick up on.
Like by me this product.
Right.
Or call this person or send this text.
I still don't trust my echo to buy things for me.
Like I know that's a function that can do, but I won't be like, hey, buy me toilet paper.
It's funny that you bring that up because I recently discovered a new podcast that I'm
a big fan of called The Hive.
It's produced by Vanity Fair, but it's hosted by Nick builtin,
who's a New York Times journalist and like that.
Really cool, just one-on-one interview style podcast
where he gets interesting people and talks to them.
What the first episode was Bob Iger, CEO of Disney,
and it was really amazing to listen to.
Never heard just like a lengthy conversation
with Bob Iger and heard like,
the man is extremely smart
The man is extremely charismatic the man is like is sounds like you really cares about the company and you obviously can't like
Determine everything about a person from these podcasts, but it was really interesting
The one that just came out really just the brand new and that caught my interest of why I started to podcast was that he had a conversation with this guy who was a
Formally part of the onion and a writer for the data show,
Beretund Thurston.
And he had this very lengthy conversation about tech, Nick built in a big tech writer has
been doing it for like 13 years.
And they had a talk about like the Facebook breach of information and that kind of thing.
And a big topic to discuss was a change in the responsibility of what the default is.
And you talk about patching out that problem,
but like the default of these things
needs to be put on the response,
maybe put on the developers to like have these things figured out
before they release these AIs.
I think I'm boring Blaine.
So we can move the top.
No, no, I think Blaine was talking about. I think that you're right. I think I'm boring Blaine. So we can move the top. No, no, I think Blaine was talking about.
I think that you're right.
I think too often.
And I've seen on Twitter, like Kumail Nanjiani
talks about this sometimes about how, you know,
developers or people will do things
because it's possible without thinking
of all the potential negative ramifications of it.
Boston Dynamics, for example, making fucking robots
that will run and hunt us down.
Still us.
And they'll do it with, while jumping over logs and shit,
those guys scare me.
Sorry, did you read that?
No, you're, that's very correct.
That's the, that, that recent Boston, like every time those videos come out
and go, this is really cool and I'm scared.
I always think of that scene.
I watch those videos and then I'll watch the scene in Jurassic Park with
a gold bloom where they like, they didn't think about if they should do it.
Yeah, somewhat related to that.
I read another story a couple of weeks ago
about how the FBI was giving a presentation
at a security conference,
and they were talking about how,
it sounds almost made up.
Like I don't know if I wanna believe the story or not,
but they talked about how they were doing,
they were working on this hostage rescue situation
and that how they had this elevated observation position where they were watching where everything was happening, and that as they were setting on this hostage rescue situation and that how they had this elevated observation position
where they were watching where everything was happening
and that as they were setting up their observation position
that their agents got overrun by swarm of drones
that the people who had the hostage were controlling drones
and sending them like swooping after the agents
and that they were filming and live streaming the swooping
that people in the house could observe the FBI agents and in order to make their escape.
That sounds like.
That's very, that's almost sounds like an onion thing, but I could also totally believe that'll happen.
Did you ever see there was a, I'd like to move.
There was a movie in, I think in the early 80s that had Tom Selik.
It was called Runaway.
It was like, I never saw that.
It was a science fiction guy that has a mustache. I know who Tom Selik is Tom Selic, it was called Runaway. It was like, I never saw that. It was a science fiction film.
The guy that has the mustache.
I know who Tom Selic is.
I didn't see the movie Runaway.
It was a science fiction film.
When I was a kid, it's that movie scared the shit out of me.
But it was like, it was sitting in the future
and I think it was supposed to be,
I think it was supposed to be in Seattle.
And there's like all, there's,
the bad guy is Gene Simmons from Kiss.
Hell yeah.
But there's all these like little robot.
I don't find a poster of this now.
There's a, it's in the future.
So there's robots everywhere.
And there's like these little robots
that can be hacked and controlled
and they can like inject people with poison to kill them.
And Gene Simmons has a gun that has bullets that are tongues.
It's tied to people.
So it's like, if he shoots a bullet at you, Blaine,
and you're like around a corner,
it goes around the corner. Oh, like trace your bullet. Yeah, and it looks for you and it finds it only hits you. It sounds fantastic
I want to watch that movie now. I've got the gun from Fifth Element has that mode right? Yeah, and I was like when I was a kid
I was like that was the most scary thing to be like this little spider robot
He had a power to go around that fuck yeah corner
She should look up what Gene Simmons looks like in that in that movie there was a movie that was like that that's here
The shed on me too because I was like oh my god. It's an that movie. There was a movie that was like that that scared the shit out of me too, because I was like, oh my God, it's inescapable.
There's nothing that I can do.
Some Sandra Bullock movie where she got hacked or something.
The net.
The net.
That movie scared the shit out of me.
The net frightened me.
Like also like there's that scene
where they changed the elevation for the plane
so the guy flies into the mountain,
like at the beginning of the movie.
Yeah.
It's like, yeah, everything's connected to the net
and it can be hacked.
Yeah. It's not far from the truth. Like back in the 90s, that was a bit of a mountain, like at the beginning of the mountain. It's like, yeah, everything's connected to the net and it can be hacked. I mean, it's not far from the truth.
Like back in the 90s,
that was a bit of a stretch,
but now like, they could probably happen.
Yeah, there was the problem with the phones
or like there might be an ongoing problem of like,
you know, the, going onto these assistants
that they are always listening
so that they can hear when you call them.
Mm-hmm.
But that means that they're always listening.
So then people wonder like,
what does that mean that they're listening to everything I say?
Thus can they use that information to fabricate ads for me
or suggestions for me?
That can be with this algorithm that we have going on
just that's running the world.
And that it scares me.
And I don't know, the solution is at this point.
Don't use them.
That's what it is.
I mean, there's the unplug option,
but I don't think that's like a viable option
for people in the professional world to participate in.
I don't know, I can't, I can't unplug and...
No, you can unplug from those devices.
Right.
Or from those things that listen to you all the time.
Wait, is your concern that they're gonna hear you say
something in like post-it or something?
Or someone's gonna hack in your echo or some shit?
Why did one of your eyes blink
and not the other one when you said that?
Cause I'm the robot.
I'm a mouthful.
I'm mouthful.
I'm functioning.
You're from Westworld.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I don't want to talk about what can't talk about,
it's spoiling.
I'd like a little bit about it.
I think that there is definitely concern
no matter what at the idea of you always being listened to.
Yeah.
Just like the idea of you're always being tracked
in GPS, by your phones.
Yeah.
Do you watch Westworld?
I do.
So I was worried after not yesterday's episode,
but last week's episode.
Last week's episode.
Fuck yeah.
I was like, oh man, I don't know if this is over this episode.
That was like, I watched it.
I think that might be the worst episode.
It was dog shit.
Of the entire show.
Yeah.
Nothing happened.
Well, no, I mean, even the stuff that did happen was like,
there was like some stuff happened was nothing,
like nothing happened.
There was some stuff like blocking wise even,
like you know, like a wide shot,
a group of people came up on two other characters,
I'm not gonna mention names
cause I don't want to spoil anything.
And the ambush them and one of them awkwardly ran away.
And in the same shot, the other one like gave up,
it was like, it was really bad.
It was just like, they took the first take from every performance.
Well, even like the the battle when the people were like advancing like running straight.
Yeah, I was like, what is this? It was also the battle was like a low budget Game of Thrones battle.
Like a bad game of Thrones like have been like, I would just totally agree. But yesterday's episode
was probably the best episode
they've had about both seasons.
It was also like a fucking black mirror episode
inside of an episode.
I thought it made me think about loss.
I got definitely that lost vibe initially.
Like when there's a music was playing and you see
like the part, you don't see the person's face,
you see their legs and they're doing this thing
and like that kind of long tracking shot
through the environment.
It made me think of like in loss the episode of Taylor Two Cities
when you first meet Juliet and she's baking and like the camera's going through the house,
she burns herself and then you're like what the fuck's happening?
And then you like she goes outside and you see the plane break in half.
It's like oh shit, she's on the island.
Yeah, it's like it was like that kind of moment where it's like
all this like this long thing you like what's going on and then you see.
It all makes sense.
Like what's happening.
I think it was like that was a direct oral debut from Lisa Joy, I want to say I enjoyed who's the co-part creator of the show.
Yeah, she stepped she stepped away to watch right last of us I think. Oh really? There was like a female
writer on Westworld that that went away to do last of us two or something which is exciting, you know,
I'm excited for Westworld or the last of the last was to start what are you saying?
Nothing.
I was just going to point out that
Ed Harris is killing it insanely.
The man is an acting king.
Yeah, he's real good.
Yeah, he yeah, I mean, I guess we
can't talk about it because spoilers
and what not.
It was a Haley Gross who went to
who for to go right for the last of
us to issues. Yeah, I think she's the season one writer. She went over. Um, but yeah, he had a moment It was a Haley Gross who went to go right for last of us.
Yeah, I think she's the season one writer.
She went over.
But yeah, he had a moment last night where he's talking
to that technician.
Like he just like after he finishes talking to the person
in the room and comes out and talks to the technician.
And he has like that just that quick exchange.
I was like, that is the most evil bad ass thing ever.
Yeah, it's definitely sad at the prospect of not getting to have like Anthony Hopkins
in this season like we had him in the first season. But at Harris is like, I think filling
in that, the aged actor.
I have some theories about that at all. I'll share with you later.
Okay, we can talk about that.
But yeah, the season like that, episode one was just kind of okay.
And I was like, all right, I'll allow this one.
I knew that this one was gonna be really expository.
They're gonna have to get people cop back up.
And episode two was like, okay,
it's just a standard episode.
And like you said, like three was dog shit.
I didn't say three was dog shit.
You said three was dog shit.
Westworld season two, episode three, dog shit, You said three was dog shit. Three. Westworld season two, episode three,
dog shit, gust of roll 2018, May 14th.
Oh, so apparently we have visualization
of what it would look like if Todd stole his hair back from you.
Oh, no.
What does it look like?
Oh, oh, God, mom.
The Peter Hayes made that too.
Oh, man. Yeah, yeah, from the control room. That's just I think Peter's a robot
Does anybody actually met Peter? No no one's ever met me doesn't exist because I'm pretty sure he's an AI
Just like doing research gifts
Or still images or video he's a he's a triple threat everything since we moved on from film to TV
He's a triple threat. Everything.
Since we moved on from film to TV.
I'm not talking about three movies, can't.
What were you talking about, Barry?
Anybody watch Barry?
I'm watching Barry right now.
I mean, I'm in the like the fourth episode.
Okay.
Do you watch Barry?
You fuck with Barry?
Barry's good.
Barry's good.
It's not a, it's not a like, it's one of those shows.
Like there's certain shows that I,
once you start watching, you can't help,
but binge the whole thing because you're so excited.
Like, Wild World Country was that way for me. I, once you start watching, you can't help but binge the whole thing because you're so excited.
Like, Wild World Country was that way for me.
Where I was like, I gotta know how this story ends now.
Barry, I'm enjoying, but I don't have to like go crazy yet,
but every time I turn on, I'm like, haters good.
It's, it's bite size, you know, 30 minutes.
And I think it, it does a good job of straddling both,
like serious drama and then lighthearted,
dark comedy moments.
Dark comedy?
And they're, yeah.
I think that overall I really liked it.
I feel like towards the end,
it wrapped up a little too quickly.
I haven't watched the full first season.
Yeah, I wish that maybe,
and maybe they had more padded out,
but maybe they ended up editing it
and cutting a couple episodes down.
For like, it's something like 13 episodes,
seasonally. Yeah, something like that.
So it's gonna have more. I think that maybe there might have been more
there and then editorial, they may have cut a few episodes out
because at the end, it's just like, bam, bam, bam, bam, you, you blow
through a lot of every time we talk about something that Blaine has
less interested in, and we just lose them. It's like a child on his birthday.
Uh, I love the, uh,ni and thug dude with like alopecia or something like that.
Uh, uh, noho hanker, noho.
Yeah.
Like he is a really good character.
And I will and that he's not just like a stereotypical thug in a, in a Eastern European
game.
I love like he's like a the techie or the head, and like that kind of causes problems for them immediately.
He's good, I like him.
Yeah, and I was gonna bring up,
how insane that Brooklyn 9.9 got picked up by you.
Yeah, what happened with that?
So it got canceled and then they renewed it
because the audience outcredits.
No, you got canceled on Fox.
Okay, cancel on Fox.
And BC picked it up.
Oh, so did they buy the rights to it or something?
Most of.
Yeah, so that's happened where shows get picked up
by another channel.
My question is, no, I'm not upset about this.
Brooklyn on 9 is the best, I guess sitcom,
you know, a situation comedy on TV and is amazing.
No, no, big bang through you.
Shut up.
But the fact that Fox announces cancellation day one.
And then day two NBC announces they're picking up.
My question is, do deals get made that quickly?
Or was it already in the works?
Already in the works.
Maybe it happened that quickly, I don't know.
I'm not, I'm not, like suggest any sort of like
ulterior motives are like wrongdoing, but I just wondered. I think not, I'm not, like, suggesting any sort of like ulterior motives are like wrong doings, but I just wondered.
I think that that might have happened already
because there's no way that they can get all of the cast
to sign on for a new season in a day's time.
Like, the cast finds out, like,
like, cast of these shows find out
that they get picked up in a way.
It's not like they asked the cast, you want to be in the show.
They just announced, okay, we've been picked up
for more season, the cast goes, cool. Like, my contract says I like they asked the cast. Do you want to be in the show? They just announced, okay, we've been picked up for more season.
The cast goes, cool.
Like my contract says I can do this many season.
Rowel was tweeting about that.
Yeah, Rowel got, he was waiting to find out
if I zombie was going to get picked up for another season.
That's gotta be fucking stressful.
That is stressful.
You just gotta, you're gonna find out
if you're, you have a job or not, basically.
But, so they, so it depends on what the cast,
like their contracts say as far as like how many seasons they're they do things like
They got cancelled and someone on the cast was like oh man
I can finally do this other project now and then the next day in BC picks it up like oh fuck
Yeah, like the one main character that just actually did not like Andy Sanbury like it really was done. Yeah
I was gonna go make a movie. Yeah, does you think roles gonna come to RTX? I haven't met him yet. He seems like a nice fellow.
I have not met him yet either. He's gonna be at Megacon.
Hi! Hi! Oh, she would invite him to Disney.
We should invite him to Disney and our good friend Gus.
Danny Whirl. You're leaving early.
I want to remind everyone this episode of the Seat Podcast is also brought to you by Quip.

Toothbrush, let's, toothbrush, toothbrush has got it.
The AI and the toothbrush, there's no AI in the toothbrush.
That's the time.
No AI in there.
Can't go off message.
Did you guys, I'm a huge, huge, huge, huge predator fan,
like the original Schwarzenegger film,
just like probably one of my favorite movies.
Yeah, did you guys see the new trailer for the predator?
Mm-hmm.
It's real bad.
It's a real bad, I'm not excited.
Oh yeah.
I will say the trailer is not a very good trailer.
I hope it's just a bad trailer.
But that being said,
it's the one with like the kid who finds the thing
and he's like,
yeah.
And then the ship's coming down.
Who the fuck males predator armor?
Okay.
It's literally a nuclear bomb.
Maybe he didn't,
maybe like there was out of space on the plane,
on the ship, you know,
and he was like,
oh shit, I gotta fucking ship this home now.
I'm being serious here, guys. This is predator. We're talking about I'm being serious, too. Those overhead baggage fees
They're not there. No joke, especially intergalactic. Remember how like respectful he was to like topics we were having a second ago
Yeah, and the minute you don't take his topic serious. He's like wait wait wait wait. It's my birthday, John
It's my birthday, John. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Doesn't have any of his like his like trademark Shane black. Is this well now that you've seen it was that it was a full trailer was it a teaser? What you have watched the trailer for Iron Man 3 and been like that looks like a Shane black film
Yes, no bullshit. There was like buddy comedy elements. It was set during Christmas
If there's parts in L.A.
trailer watching a trailer of Iron Man. Yeah, I know you can you can decipher all that from the
I'm in yeah, I know you can you can decipher all that from
The he'll never see me coming that was that trailer right there
Coming and the fucking people falling out of the plane, you know typical shame black movie typical shame black stuff
They weren't my I was like, those are in his nose. Oh, I'm excited for it.
That's coming out really soon.
It's like the summer, right?
Yeah, I think so.
I'm excited for two.
And I think Schwarzenegger might make the plan.
When does the plan come out?
We just talked about this, dude.
You're using it.
But I'm using a September 14th.
The states of America, September 14th.
January 4th, March of May, June, July, August.
Dude, do you really have to do that?
You can't figure out how far we September is?
I know.
Yes, four months away.
You really have to come from January.
No.
Wait, you started from January?
I did.
I thought he just had a count of May, June, July.
This is the worst birthday ever.
We're gonna go climbing.
We couldn't even get a full podcast group
for my birthday podcast.
No, I requested the whole couch.
I wanted more time for you, Blaine.
All right, thank you.
Oh, you like pizza, right?
I love pizza.
Yeah, I know you like home slice.
And I think that home slice over here
is gonna be opening up pretty soon.
I saw they've been teasing it.
I drove by the other day and they they were packed at night
I think they're doing like their friends and family testing like it looked like
Like a like a full restaurant service was going on my invite and I know where they're weekly home slice
What the fuck come on hook us up? We probably do so much advertising for home site anyways go on
I guess but
That was gonna be a segue
because I saw this YouTube video.
I think it was last week.
It was this channel that made a double deep fried pizza.
Is it epic meal time or whatever?
No, it was nice.
Healthy junk food.
What? That looks like...
H-E-L-L.
Uh-oh.
That looks like that on your mind.
So yeah, they made a pizza deep fried it, then put more toppings on it and deep fried
it.
That's pretty fantastic.
That's really yummy.
Yeah, it looked, we looked fucking incredible.
Now I can't think about anything other than wanting to eat a deep fried pizza.
You think it was via through in three?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Via through in three, fantastic.
Uh, there was a video on like a Buzzfeed, like Twitter channel or something like that,
Twitter account that was a video of someone
making a 100 layer lasagna.
Damn.
It was pretty amazing.
They actually had like extend the little pan they made
in to actually be able to deal with 100 layers.
And then when they cooked and everything
and they showed all the like the making layers
and everything then they cooked it,
they had this cross-section shot of these thin layers,
just going down a hundred times,
and Louis was the most beautiful thing
that I've seen in an upper class.
I'm looking at it up right now.
There's no way that they cooked the inside of it though.
Like how?
Because it's noodles.
It's noodles.
Yeah, but well, there's no, there's meat.
Yeah, and the meat flanese or whatever it's called.
The meat's like browned and everything.
Uh, but the cheese, you got to melt the cheese.
I'm sure it wasn't fully cooked.
Well, the cross-section shots showed it all the cook.
I hadn't considered that the meat was already cooked.
Anyways, do you serve a photo of it?
That sounds delicious.
I don't know which one it was that you saw,
but I don't know how that looked.
Sure, yeah, yeah, that's that shot right there.
That looks just like one of those,
you know, the Greek places that serve the meat on the spinning wheel
Shorma no the euro euro. Yeah, it looks like that. You just shave off lasagna as it's been really me too
I was watching did anybody watch ugly delicious on Netflix. I love ugly delicious
So you talked about euro and that made me think about some that it's a fucking great show
You should watch it on Netflix. Yeah the name of the show runner on that?
Oh, oh, is it David Troy?
Chain David chain. Oh, no, no, it's a boy boy RD
Shut up, but shut up shut up. Okay, they talk about in that show
They have an episode about tacos and they talk about how the pastore
Type of meat that you put in tacos is directly descended from Euro meat.
Like it was like, there was a huge Lebanese influence on tacos
and that you have like, depending on where you are in Mexico,
there's some areas that have like this crossover
Lebanese style tacos and it was really, I'd never heard of it before,
but after I saw that episode, I was like, I need to find those.
Oh, it's the episode about dumplings as soon as over.
I was like, well, I have to go get dumplings now.
And actually, maybe I could like, a couple of like,
there's actually a really good, like,
what's that kind of food called?
Like dumplings, there's a word for it.
It's about like, dim sum.
Dim sum.
Like, if there's a good dim sum place in Austin,
because we had a good dim sum place
when we were in RTX Sydney.
Like, Gyoza dumplings?
Gyoza or dumplings here? Yeah. Was that what you're referring to though? Yeah, yeah. Yeah.X. Sydney. What's the, is that like Gosa dumplings? Gosa or dumplings here?
Yeah.
Was that what you're referring to though?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, okay.
You're being a Kula or is it Kula?
Yeah, Kula.
They changed their name.
Okay.
I thought I was racist for a while.
They changed their name.
Yeah, it used to be Kula, now it's Kula.
Yeah.
You get to see why I feel like I've been racist for the thing
and not right?
Do you still have dumplings there?
I don't know.
No, it's conveyor belt sushi.
That's what I thought.
They have gyoza there.
They do have gyoza.
Okay.
And so, I wasn't, um, Ali Wong, a guest on the,
I think she was on the dumpling one, right?
She was on the dumpling one.
Did you watch her new dumpling special?
Hard Knock wife?
I haven't seen it.
It's fucking hilarious.
Like, she is insanely talented and funny.
And it's basically, it's kind of like in
the same vein as like Jim Gavigan who could spend an entire set for an hour talking about
food and still keep you entertained. She spends the entire hour talking about being a new
mom, but it's in the most like, it's in the most self like, it's in a very real and funny
way that's not just someone talking about the magical,
you know, thing of being a parent.
Like no, she was great in that episode of Ugly Delicious.
So she was really funny.
Like even though, you know, she's only on it very briefly.
What's up dude?
You, uh, uh, uh, hello.
Uh, I was gonna say, never mind.
So I, uh, I had, I had a new type of dumpling last night
that I'd never had before.
What'd you have?
Um, I found a restaurant in Austin that,
I didn't find it, I went to a restaurant in Austin
with the fuck in my safe.
You found it.
I went to a restaurant here in town
that serves Nepalese food.
Nepal.
And I'd never had,
28 years older by 28 years old today.
I'd never had food from Nepal before,
so I went there and they have this type of dumpling
they call a momo.
What's it a momo?
It was pork, but it had like this sauce on the side.
I couldn't identify.
It was yellow and it looked like mustard,
but it didn't taste like mustard.
Is yellow meat?
No, no, it's like the sauce on the side with it.
But it was pork in the momo.
But that food was spicy as fuck.
Yeah.
I normally am good with spicy food,
but I ordered medium.
I was like, I don't want to think too spicy.
I'll see medium.
And my head was sweating.
I could feel pools of sweat on my scalp and on my face.
I was like, I want to die.
It's so fucking hot.
I highly recommend it.
Absolutely go eat it.
That's not fun to pass that.
No, no, but it's fun to eat.
Okay, so I texted you.
I texted you, Partler last night.
That went through me today and I was like, oh God. People say that all the time with spicy foods, but like when we did I texted you, really, partly last night, that went through me today. And I was like, oh, God.
People say that all the time was spicy foods,
but like when we did the,
we did the hot ones challenge here,
a while back when Marcus through that,
like wings party.
Party.
He had wings up to like,
I don't know, hundreds of thousands of Scoville.
And I did every single one of them
all the way to the worst one.
And everyone was just like,
yeah, we're all gonna have terrible poos tonight.
And this is gonna be terrible coming through.
The challenge was over.
And then I went and saw it with like Ashley.
And then you took a shit.
No, well,
hey.
And I had a coffee at it and then it went home.
And I had no problems the entire night.
Apparently it's the one thing my body can do
is process spicy food afterwards.
Of course you did.
Did you have any sort of like milk or any basic?
I mean during, we hear at the event,
they had like some ice cream in milk.
That might have helped.
That might have helped,
but I figured it's still got a pass, right?
Whenever I did the gallon challenge for whatever,
I was worse thing in the world.
I was like, shitting milk, literally shitting milk.
I hated being near you.
I know you probably had a terrible experience
to do that.
I cannot be around someone who's like having like vomit.
Like, it's good times.
I remember what I was gonna talk about.
Yeah.
Okay, did I forget it?
No, no, okay.
So Gus and John, I think you'd both find this appealing,
especially Gus.
There's this new Netflix thing
about the guys that do the pizza shop bank robbery thing.
Evil genius.
Yeah.
Have you watched it yet?
We already talked about them, I list.
No, okay.
Okay, okay.
Did you see the trailer for it though?
No.
They put a guy in this like collar, collar bomb,
and it looks, you know what I'm talking about?
That's a real thing, yeah.
I remember that. Yeah, it's a documentary.
It seems like a fucking like,
Shane Black movie or something,
like it looks like a lethal weapon, what?
What?
What?
No, look at some out of lethal weapon, I getcha.
Yeah, this guy's got it.
I think apparently they show that,
like in the most tasteful way possible,
but he has it on his neck.
So that's pretty interesting.
Yeah, I remember that.
There's video of that.
Like when it actually happened, I remember,
like that's an old video I saw years ago.
And that was a device in a movie recently with...
Saw?
No, no, no.
I guess, but there was one of the pizza delivery.
We had a what's her name from Twilight and...
Crystal Stewart.
Yeah, I think it had, I think it had Kristen Stewart
and I think it had Jesse Eisenberg in it as well.
Oh, a Merit-Kin.
30 minutes or less or something.
Oh, is that what's called?
30 minutes or less.
30 minutes or less.
Okay.
So Jesse Eisenberg and like a Z-Zone star.
Yeah, it's not, it's not, you're...
And maybe what's her face is in it?
Yeah, I have a bomb.
But yeah, his same thing was the pizza delivery drive
and he's got like a bomb on him. Yeah. But yeah, why'd you why'd you bring it up? Just like
it's evil geniuses. It's like a I went out to dinner with it from last night and here I recommend
that I see it. And I knew that you would be interested in something because apparently it's a lot like
like did have you seen it yet? Have you did you watch evil genius? No, I'm probably gonna watch
it. So I know a bit about that story just because like it's it was such a weird story when it happened
like I've kind of kind of kept up with it. It seems like it's some sort of high-mind collective of criminals
and they couldn't quite decipher who did what.
Yeah, I don't know anything I don't want to get spoiled,
but it sounds really interesting.
It's one of those things where you can easily go to the Wikipedia page
and look up all the stuff, how it broke down,
but I feel like it'd be a better story to hear.
Oh, we had a moment like that in the office,
in the design cave, And one of the guys
in the office, Ari, we joke all the time because he's one of the younger designers. And also,
as one of these guys who just hasn't seen a lot of stuff. So we make references constantly. And
Ari goes, I don't know, and so Ari is just right now finally going through Game of Thrones.
And he's only like six episodes into season one.
And we were talking about stuff in there
and talking about like what he's watched so far and it's like that.
And at one point, it was me and Wes.
And we couldn't remember the name of the dad,
Lannister, Tywin Lannister.
And so we were like, doing I think we're like,
is it's not Torman?
It's that kind of thing you're trying to figure it out? At one point, Ari turns around and goes, let me think we're like, is it, it's not torment, it's that kind of thing. You're trying to figure it out.
At one point, Ari turns around and goes,
let me Google real quick and West screams out,
no, do not Google anything Game of Thrones right now.
You would literally get everything spoiled
for you because you have not watched it.
And I realized that was the quickest thought
he could have because yes, if Ari had just Googled
anything Game of Thrones,
oh, can I even auto complete?
Auto complete would have just spoiled something.
Well, the fucking worst is when you go to like
a wiki's page
or something, like I'll do this for like a comic character
or a video game character and be like,
date of birth, date of death.
And be like, oh!
Well, what I hate is as I'm watching a series,
I can't, I don't ever, I look at it on IMDB
if I'm watching something for the first time
because I don't wanna know like,
how many episodes.
Or like how many episodes the character was in.
I have to cover my screen when I look
because I don't wanna see how many episodes,
because yeah, I'm gonna assume that they die soon.
Right, it's like, oh no, they were only in so many.
It's like a fuck, I just ruined it.
It's good, it's good, it's good, it's good.
Well, like, IMDb was doing this thing recently
where they had a spoiler for Avengers in like a video
and it's just like shit like that.
I don't get why people perpetuate spoilers like.
Did you see?
But again, okay, let's have this fucking discussion again
because I saw someone in chat earlier,
it was mad about it.
When are spoilers for Infinity War okay?
Oh, I think by now, but I'm saying this was like week of,
like the movie had not come out.
But they said in chat was that it hasn't been out a month yet.
I think a month's ridiculous.
A month is a long time. Yeah.
For not talking about squares movie. I think you also took a capitalize on the popularity of it.
I think I would think, you know, because movies come out Fridays, you can see them Thursday night.
I think two weekends after the movie, you should feel a talk about it. Because that is two whole weekends.
People have an opportunity to go see the movie because that's when people see movies a lot.
And so there's gonna be the majority of the people
that will see it the first weekend that's out
and then there's the people that's like,
I could not make it to that or did not go see it then.
So I'll go see it the next weekend.
After that weekend, that's gotta be the end of
not being able to talk about that.
You're grace period.
Because it's like, I am on the side of like,
I hate spoilers.
It's mainly why I go see most movies I wanna see Thursday night,
like really before they come out and that kind of thing.
So at this point, if any of your wars
been out for three weekends,
I would totally want to spoil it.
Okay, we're not doing that, but we could.
Dumbledore dies.
I didn't want to worry about it yet.
Um, my brain did this amazing thing.
I tweeted out mistakenly.
So the beginning of God of War, this isn't a spoiler because it's like the very beginning.
Dude's carrying a log.
He's like walking around the forest with a log and it reminded me of the beginning of
a commando.
We're sure.
Yeah, yeah.
He literally chops down a tree and carries a log and I treated that out.
I was like, oh, it's really funny.
You know, like, what if I heard the steel drums from commando? I'm really excited town of tree and carries a log. And I treated that out. I was like, oh, it's really funny. You know, like, what if I heard the steel drums from
Commando?
I'm really excited for this game.
I'm like, five, 10 minutes in.
And some fucking asshole that didn't have the balls to put
his own picture on his Twitter account, tweeted at me,
a spoiler.
And the only reason I know is the spoilers because I went
back to read it after I'd beaten the game.
But my brain did this amazing thing where he said,
you're wife of the, and like, I just like,
I looked away from my phone.
I looked away from it because I knew instinctively
that this was some prick that was trying to spoil it for me.
And sure enough, like, he gave away
the two biggest spoilers in the game.
I don't know why somebody would do that.
Like a directly at you kind of, man.
Yeah, it was just like, it was,
it was basically like, if you're like,
hey, I'm gonna go see Harry Potter
and they're like, same people said, I'm gonna do that, I just like it was it was basically like if you're like hey I'm gonna go see Harry Potter and they're like same people
What did I just told you all the shit? Yeah, it's just like just just to fuck me over in some way
I've never I don't often wish death on people but I
Yeah, I'm gonna leave that's if it's in some finished
Yeah, people there's some who are just assholes.
I feel like lately I've been seeing more and more assholes
driving. This is a part of the podcast
we're playing about people driving in Austin.
Hell yeah.
What the fuck is wrong with everybody
who drives in this goddamn city?
Someone, pretty rough.
Got, like, someone started screaming at me
and flipping me off and like rolled down his window
at me the other day because I turned
and I had the right of way.
Yeah, out of there.
Like I was in a turn lane, turning left into a business
and he was coming out, turning left also.
So it was clear there wasn't any oncoming traffic,
so I started turning left into the business
and he like starts trying to dart out
and it has to stop because I'm turning in.
He rolls down his windows leading out and flipping me off
and I did the thing where I looked around,
I was like, ooh, who's he yelling at?
Oh, it's me?
I was like, what? That doesn't make any sense Oh, it's me? I was like, what?
That doesn't make any sense.
I think that is a weekly occurrence
that I get yelled at or honked at
for doing something legal in the car.
Same.
The other day I saw someone, it wasn't me.
I thought there was a person in front of me driving.
They were going straight and the lane to the left
was a left turn lane, but the person who was in the left
turn lane wanted to go straight also.
But the car that was in front of me wasn't letting them in.
So the car that was wrong kept like swirving also, but the car that was in front of me wasn't letting them in, so the car that was wrong kept like,
swirving their car into the car that was just going straight,
acting like they were gonna hit them.
Oh, I was like, what are you doing?
I was on the phone with Bernie
when I was heading over to the animation studio,
and it was the weirdest thing,
I don't know why my brain did this,
but I'm sitting there and I'm like, in my car,
and I'm driving, and then up ahead,
I see this car stop
as if it's trying to turn into,
it realized that it was in a left turn only lane.
And it did not wanna go left,
it wanted to go into the right turn lane.
So it stopped before it could get there
and was trying to merge,
and have somebody like, they were probably
like waving at somebody to let them in.
Suddenly, the guy that's in the straight lane
just ram ran the car and proceeded to like,
like it's tires were spinning and it just drove this car into the, like into the, the,
the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the traffic. Oh, okay. Yeah. And then, and then it
just zoomed off. It was a hit and run, but it was an intentional hit and run. And while
I was talking to Bernie, I didn't even break a beat.
I was just talking about business.
I was like, oh yeah,
I think that'd be a good idea for him to be.
It's like, I saw this whole thing happen
while maintaining this business call.
It was the weirdest thing.
I don't know what the fuck that was about.
Does he call the police?
No, the two cars in front of me stopped
and I felt like that was sufficient enough
that I didn't need to like,
hey, you need help?
It was fucked up. The other day I was merging onto a lane in the semi-truck,
was still super far away, but they sped up to me as if I was going too slow and they started
honking and then they passed me and they're like, just laying on their horn and I didn't have
any other reaction except for to honk my own horn and wave. And you're like, yeah!
That guy was probably fucking furious.
People get so worked up and mad.
Like, I don't, wait, do you know who is a,
is pretty bad at road rage that worked here?
Bernie?
No.
Is it work?
Someone I've actually experienced worse than Bernie.
Is your work at this in Austin?
They work here.
Who?
Ashley. Really? Ashley.
Really?
Jenkins?
Ashley from here to the theater where we go see some
of the movies for the screenings,
like those short trips, we'll just scream at probably
like eight people.
She gets so upset.
And she's even said herself.
She's like, I get major.
This is where my rage comes out.
She's not a very ragy kind of person. She's like, this is where it comes out. But it's just funny
to see, you know, she's a, she's a smaller, you know, a person and that kind of thing. And just,
she's diminutive person, just like screaming at people all in the road. It's fantastic.
There's a monster though. Like, drives a monster.
Lewis CK had a bit about that years ago. It's like, you say people, when they get behind the wheel,
will say
the most awful things about another human being that you would never say to their face.
And it's like in the end, all those people made you do is this.
Yes.
It's like this is the result.
And then like you end up screaming awful things at people.
I was heading to a birthday party when I was a kid once and my dad got cut off by this
jeep that I recognized.
And he just starts fucking screaming.
These dudes, my dad's big dude, this other guy's big dude.
Just start fucking yelling each other honking horns
rolling on a window, fuck you man, fuck you.
We get to the birthday party that car is there.
It's one of my best friends, dad.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He just had to be like, sorry about that.
No, it's not be like, it was like the most uncomfortable shit ever.
So awkward, I love it.
That's awesome.
I did that to a friend once.
The next day came back to high school and he was like,
Hey man, I didn't mean to piss you off on the road.
Like, I like went full on exercises like,
BAAA, because he cut me off.
Yeah.
Blaine does this thing where if you just keep watching him when he's done with the story,
he doesn't know how to Peter out or to transfer to something.
He's kind of shut down.
Yeah, sure.
People call me out on that a lot.
He puts this things in his mouth.
He does.
He puts things in his mouth.
Oh, man.
So we were actually talking about the start earlier when we were talking about TV shows,
but does anybody watch Atlanta?
Am I the only one here who watches Atlanta?
I watched first four episodes.
I'm there as well.
And it's on my list to finish.
Because of what I've watched, I like,
I'm really bad at not finishing TV shows.
That shows really, really good.
It's probably one of the best shows on TV.
Not even close to what I expected to be.
Yeah, they just wrapped up season two.
And season two is radically different than season one.
But still awesome, so good.
That guy, I thought.
Everyone's watching on fucking Fire Man.
Yeah, that's crazy.
He's like, I mean.
Have you guys talked about the music video on this podcast?
We talked about it a little bit last week.
I hadn't seen it yet by that point.
But I think I've watched it multiple times every day since then, you know, since
When I finally did watch it that it's absolutely incredible and to think like it's weird to me because
Like he's been around and people have known of him for like he was on community forever, right?
And even before that, you know, we talked about this last week that we saw his stuff on the internet
He used to do like Derek comedy stuff like years ago and
He's always done and we not always but he's done like, challenge,
gonna be no stuff for a long time.
And in fact, when we did the,
I don't know if you guys were there,
when we went to the Titanfall launch party
doing self-buy Southwest here in Austin, were you there?
Like, I was gonna mention that's, I met him once.
Yeah, he performed there.
I was in the bathroom in line and I was next up,
and I see this dude come up behind me,
and he's with an even bigger dude that's a security guard.
He's like, hey man, you're gonna cut you.
And I was like, who the hell is asking me?
Oh my God, it's so long lover.
Yeah, sure go for it man.
He was just a little talkative.
I'm talking to a long lover.
Yeah, and then he was washing his hands
and I had nothing else to say of importance.
And I was so fucking stupid.
I was like, I appreciate you washing your hands.
What, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what,
what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, it. I don't know, Glover, do you remember the app?
He's like, I'm right there.
Well, I was just like, I was like, hey, he's just like us.
He washes his hands.
And I know he's gonna be shaking a lot of hands
and I appreciate you washing your hands on Glover.
Oh my God, you are a gift to this world, blame gifts.
Oh, I just wanna cringe at his seat.
Why did I do that?
That's hilarious.
You bring out the music video
and actually brings up a question
I recently was thinking to myself that I've never understood
how this works in music videos and not that this is America.
Music video is about this, but music videos as a medium,
what is their purpose and where is their profitability come from?
It's just to promote the album, right?
Yeah, it's a song, selling it.
So then, where's the money?
I assume the label pays for it.
Okay.
So I was listening again to that one podcast and there was, and there was a, he had an interview
with Jesse.
Jesse, he was on the Amazing Race season with Bernie Nash.
Ben Shura, the prankster couple YouTuber.
Oh right, right, yeah.
He talks about keeping track.
Oh God, Blaine.
Why, it's him talking about predators, my birthday.
Leave me alone.
Oh.
Oh.
Thank you for watching.
Oh no.
Anyways, he talked about that he worked with Snoop Dogg
on the that Ronald Clump music
video they made.
And he says in the interview that him and Snoop Dogg split the cost of the music video
and he paid for half it and then Snoop Dogg paid for half.
So then if a, because he directed it also, and he like wrote it, the Jesse.
So where does he get that money back?
Right. I don't know.
I always, I just always assumed it was the label
who pays for music videos in order to promote album sales.
Yeah.
Maybe.
But aren't they some of them like,
I got it, they're so expensive to make some of them
that I would just wonder like, where does that money come back?
I don't know, I don't have the answer.
I just, it was a question I've always thought.
It's like, I mean, it just promotes, right?
It makes, it presents a cool image.
It's like, not only does it move album sales,
but it puts you in a positive mindset for that artist
and you might want to see them in concert.
Yes.
Or maybe by merchandise.
It's just promotion.
Right.
Yeah, if it's like a visual music video
then you're probably going to want to go see them perform.
Maybe back in the day when it was on TV,
like the TV, you know, like MTV would buy, you know,
distribution rights or anything. Well, now also they might have, you know, money from YouTube views. Yeah.
But like a 10 million viewed or a 60 million viewed video on YouTube with that upset the cost of like,
a, like a Taylor Swift music video. Yeah, I think that music videos typically pay out less because
people don't watch them as actively. They don't really like put them on like on YouTube and then like
tab away to something else.
I think when music videos started becoming
a popular thing, like with MTV,
I mean, there's a song about it,
video killed the radio star.
Do you think like all the ugly artists were like,
fuck, fuck, I'm so fucked right now.
Yeah, yeah.
There's always a jarring experience
when you have listened to someone's voice
for a very long time and then get to see their picture
for the first time.
I had it when I looked up you guys for the first time
because I had heard you guys.
You're like, oh god.
Yeah, oh.
Throw the computer away.
Yeah.
And you just, I don't know, it's impossible for your brain
to not craft some sort of predispose
the idea of what you might look like when you hear
like a radio person or something like that.
And then when you see them, or like, same thing has happened when I've met
online friends for the first time that I never saw.
It's just jarring, because it's almost like that.
It's a miniature experience of like what you see as people
who are missing a sense and then get it for the first time
and then having to come to terms with how that
marries with the sense they already had.
I think it's the same thing where you have to like,
all right, so that voice is coming out of that mouth now.
I'm okay with that, that's normal.
This will now replace the mental image that I have.
Yeah, I had a community member come up to me
and she was like,
just so you know you're the only Rue's
her teeth person that I know who they look like.
And I was like, what do you mean by that?
And she was like, I've been a Rue's her teeth
like a Red versus Blue fan for years.
I don't want to know what Sarge, Griff, Kaboos,
any of those guys look like.
And I was like, okay.
And I was like, you want me to point the mount?
She's like, no, I don't wanna know.
I don't wanna know.
And I was like, okay, and she walked off.
It was like the weirdest thing.
Like how interesting.
She didn't wanna know what you looked like.
Gus, she didn't know what I wanted to say.
I don't blame her.
I really can't think.
Most people don't.
Shouldn't be subjected to that.
But I got distracted. So I went back to talk about something.
I ended up talking about Atlanta instead.
But we didn't talk about how Rick and Morty got renewed
for 70 episodes.
How does that work?
I thought that they were on the outs.
No, only instead was that they hadn't been renewed.
They were on the outs, yeah.
I heard that they were going through a personal thing.
Like something was going on between those two or something.
Between Reuland and Harmon. Which I don't want that like I fucking love those guys, but yeah, I think some I think the rumors that they had some creative
differences during season four the most recent stuff and that's why it was delayed that they, you know,
had to try to hammer out some stuff. I'm going to show 70 episodes. Did anybody specify if that's like a season?
No, they did not specify anything beyond that.
That's the animation.
That's a lot.
That's a lot of animation.
I mean, yeah, I really love Rick and Morty,
but that's one of those things that I'm actually not a proud,
like I'm not proud to talk about super publicly
because I think the Rick and Morty fan base
is kind of one of the most toxic ones.
There was a portion of the fan base
that did create a lot of toxicity.
I don't think they were the intent.
Not all of them, I don't want to brought sweet people.
You got to continue to be a good example of the fact though.
But you're part of the fan base.
Right.
I'm part of the fan base.
I loved it and didn't have any of that.
Well, but I hate you though.
And I came down to the McDonald's.
So I'm saying like I don't like the Rick and Morty down. So I'm saying, like, I don't like to brick and worry fan base
because it's people like us and I don't like us.
I'm not gonna be near you at the gym, okay?
You be on your side.
I'm gonna be on my side, okay?
Oh, we're gonna go to the gym.
You wanna go to the gym with us, Slavy?
No, there's my birthday wish.
Gus, have my birthday wish.
Have I ever been in a gym?
Gus, I can eat you in for free.
It's my birthday wish.
I don't know.
It's my birthday.
No, no, no.
It's my lifelong wish to not do that.
How about that?
I call it a pulse seniority on you.
I think Gus has stubborn enough that if that was your birthday wish every year, he would
make his birthday wish every year to not have to do it.
We're like watching me eat a gourdose donut or something like that.
Sounds pretty awesome.
To watch Blaine eat a gourdose.
Yeah, can I film it?
Just for personal research purposes.
I just want to put on the internet.
That'd be fun. That's the thing, right? Like people areordo's. You're gonna film it? Just for personal research purposes. That's what I'm putting on the internet.
That'd be fun.
That's the thing, right?
Like people are into watching.
You did it.
But I mean like a fetish thing.
Yeah.
That's what I do.
It wasn't a fetish thing.
Right, but you know what?
Watching you were not experiencing their fetish.
You're making me rethink.
What?
Project.
Was that just like a, just a thing that you just,
you want to see if it took off the paperwork.
This is perfect.
Cause this is allowing me to segue to a question I wanted to ask, which is Gus, how
are you at home with your wife?
Like, what is your interaction?
That's a personal question.
It is a personal question.
Like, how do you, what is your guys as dynamic when you're at home?
Because I consider you a very interesting and quirky person and even your wife, I've kind of garnered as that as well.
So like, what's your guys' rhythm at home?
Are you guys just like, you get home
and you just guys watch a show together?
You guys do your own play.
A BDSM leather cave.
No, I mean, yeah, like it's a lot of shared interest
as far as media and internet stuff.
I mean, we spend a lot of time.
It sounds weird to say, but we spend a lot of time,
you know, looking for stuff online to make each other laugh.
Okay.
Like, it's like trying to almost like trying to one up each other.
So you guys send each other like memes if I don't read it
or stuff like that or funny pictures,
like that kind of thing.
Or like, recontextualized stuff.
She doesn't game.
No.
Did she watch you game?
Did she care?
No, not really, no.
So if you had to, like, watch you playing
like really narrative stories.
Yeah, she really enjoyed watching. So you had to see her like watch you playing like really narrative stories?
Yeah, she really enjoyed watching me play
the Walking Dead series.
That's a tell tale.
Okay.
So when you're gaming, what does she do?
She's using the internet or other stuff.
Watch your TV, whatever.
Okay.
Not that like couples like at all have to be constantly
like around each other.
I mean, when that whenever riots in town,
we spent a good amount of time together,
but then we also like we we need our separation time,
because we're very in need of people.
It's also different when you're like,
when you have like limited time with someone.
She's not in town.
Do what I'm saying.
You have separation time when she's in town?
Yeah, I mean, we kind of actually had this conversation
at the end of this last trip she was here,
where she was here for about like 10 days,
and then we,
It's a pretty good amount of time.
It's a pretty good amount of time,
and we had this funny conversation over one of our last meals
that we had at the house together
where I turned her and I was like,
I wanted to talk to her about something.
And we had this conversation once more
and we just kind of have to have talk about our relationship
a little bit.
And I told her, I was like, I'm really sad.
You have to go home to London.
I said, but I'm very glad I get to have
my regular rhythm, my life back.
Because when she's here, basically we have two modes.
Either we don't see each other at all
because she lives in London.
Or when she's here, we are then...
You see each other constantly.
We are then forced to be roommates
without any other option.
And so, and we are both two very independent people.
We are both people who need, not just like,
but we need our alone time,
we need also our space that is ours
that we've created, I think,
mine is my apartment that I live by myself,
hers is the way, the way,
she lives with siblings, but she has her own space
in her room and her like workshop and her like that.
And so we both realized that after like a few days
of having to like be around each other all day long,
because I took a few days off when she first came
this last time and so we were just like,
hanging out, hanging out, hanging out.
We both, we need to like, you need to go over there
and then I need to go over there.
And we're okay with that, we're not mad each other.
We just like, I'm gonna put my headphones on,
you're gonna put your headphones on and we're fine.
Yeah, I mean a lot of night we'll still,
we, I mean, I know what you mean,
we'll still a distance relationship thing,, we'll be in the same room,
like, but she'll be like working or reading something I'll be playing,
like video games. Right. And that helps. And like, we do that.
Like, there was plenty of times where she would be on her laptop,
watching like a hockey game or something, and then I'd be on my computer,
playing a video game, and we're not interaction with you.
Yeah, they're all actively engaged with you.
But there's even a certain amount of like,
getting to like know that you're gonna go to your room
or your house.
I mean, that's like a healthy progression
for I think just about any relationship,
you gotta have like, you gotta be comfortable
having your own time as well to recharge.
And we need to like, a lot of it,
more than probably I think most couples like,
as far as like in comparison to previous relationships I probably, I think most couples, as far as in comparison
to previous relationships I had,
like we like our, but we respect that
and it's totally what is just our thing.
And it was, one of those conversations
where I brought that up and she went,
yeah, me too, actually.
Like it was one of these you worry
that the person's gonna take offense to the fact
like I'm glad you're leaving that kind of thing,
but it wasn't that.
They're totally on board, yeah.
It's you and me on the podcast.
It's the end of the fucking podcast, though,
and we didn't tell the story about.
But I don't want to tell in the post show.
To my divorce.
Do you want to tell a story?
Do we have time for it now?
Sure, we'll go a little long.
Okay, so we've, we've teased the story
about that blaine is part of my divorce.
I'm a, yes.
Blaine is the official capacity.
Blaine is a formal part of my divorce.
I don't know the story.
Yeah, no, the very,
a lot of people in the company know it,
I've shared the story
because I shared this,
my divorce story with a lot of people.
But so this thing happened when I was going through my divorce
when we were fighting over custody of the kids.
And so we're both coming up with reasons why,
you know, we should have what we're asking
for on our side of the divorce.
And during that whole process, lawyers will often get as much information as possible from
you.
And then the other lawyer might also request information from you or bring up with their
divulge with their cases and then you have to kind of respond it.
So I go to my lawyer one day and have a meeting and she tells me all this stuff that she needs to get for me
and we had a good meeting and then I left
and I got a phone call from my lawyer after I left.
And then the phone call, she goes,
oh, I forgot to say, I asked you for something.
I need you to give me all of your social media.
And I was like, what does that mean?
Well, she said, I need you to give me
your all of your social media.
I was like, okay, so my brain went, what does that mean?
And I went, okay, I know you can download
certain social media and give it.
Like I knew there's a Twitter download.
You can archive all of your Twitter.
Facebook has a two.
So I told her I was like, okay, I can download my Twitter.
I use Tumblr, but I don't know how to give you that.
And I said, and that's about it.
And I was like, I don't have Facebook account
because I deleted it when I left California.
So I don't have that. And she went, you know my Facebook account? And I said, no. And she's like, I don't have Facebook account because I deleted it when I left California. So I don't have that.
And she went, you know, I'm a Facebook account?
And I said, no.
And she's like, okay.
Which I assumed she thought was odd
because it's just weird not to have a Facebook account.
Especially this is like three years ago.
Wasn't she like, though, like,
are you being completely honest with her now?
Yeah, she's, she's like, huh.
And I was like, okay, go, give me what you can.
And it would be good.
So then we had a meeting like just a few days later,
and we talked about a bunch of stuff. And then she's like, well, I need me what you can and we'll be good. So then we had a meeting like just a few days later and we talked about a bunch of stuff
and then she's like, well, I need to talk about one more thing
that was why I asked you about social media.
And she said, so you say you don't have a Facebook account.
I was like, no, and she's like, so because of some social
media stuff that your ex found, she's under the impression
that you did not move here
to work at Roostee.
You moved here because of a previous relationship
and or want to stay here
because of a relationship you're in,
not because you want your kids or you want your job
or anything like that.
And I went, because of a lover.
Don't know how that works.
And so my brain immediately went to how often
we make very amorous jokes in the office even years ago.
Like funny jokes about each other and that kind of thing
on Twitter.
And so I explained to her that's what we did.
She's like, yeah, okay, we just need to like make a case
of what's going on and we'll figure it out.
And I was like, cool.
So then weeks go by and I finally like have a conversation.
My ex about a few things and I decided to bring this up
and I bring up like
what is going on with this accusation? So my ex tells me that she found on the internet a Facebook account that had my face and all my information that's the basic information you could put into
there and instead I was in a relationship. Who was that relationship with Gus?
guess. For the audio listeners, it is me.
It's it's playing.
So the Facebook account said I was in a relationship with Blaine had all these pictures of me and
him and everything like that.
Just a clarification.
This was clearly a fan account is a fan made account.
This is how the conversation went.
She said, the Facebook account had all this stuff had all this information from you.
And then she's like, and then I found these stories that people wrote
about you doing things to like your coworkers
and these encounters.
At this point, I was having the conversation
in the parking lot here,
and I was like way out behind the bungalow.
And if someone was out there,
they would have heard someone scream,
that's fan fiction.
Like just off in a distance, someone's screaming that.
And so she's like, I didn't know what that is.
And I saw this stuff and I was freaking out
and I thought that it was like you were like having
a relationship and that's why you're doing this.
I was like, I'm not, I'm not fucking blame.
And so, and I've never have, not gonna say we never are.
But, no, no.
So, I asked her, okay, so now that you,
I do believe me that this is not the thing,
and she's like, yes, I believe you.
I was like, well, then tell your fucking lawyer
to take it off our case,
because if it's not off the case, we have to defend it.
Yeah.
Because if it's there, we have to make a defense for it.
Wow.
Weeks went by.
That's not how the story ends.
Oh my God.
Weeks went by, and it got close to our court date.
Mm-hmm.
And we kept asking, have you taken this off yet?
Because it's not off the case yet.
We have not removed it from the documents.
And they're like, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna,
he's gonna do it.
My lawyer's gonna do it.
Leading all the way up to right before the case.
And so I was left with no choice, but defending myself.
And I was asked by my lawyer that I had to bring
blame to the court as a witness.
So then one day, I get a text message
and John's basically like, hey, kind of awkward.
I was so embarrassed.
I need you to come and testify as a character witness,
that we are not in a gay romance together.
And I was like, good one, John.
And then he was like, no, no.
And then he laid out the story as he just told you. And so yeah, I was like, good one, John. And then he was like, no, no. And then he laid out the story as he just told you.
And so yeah, I was like, luckily for me,
I was so embarrassed for it.
Once I explained it, he was like, hell yeah,
I'll come to your court.
So then the night before the case, I'm in my closet.
No, it's freezing.
I'm very loud. I'm standing in front of my closet. No, it's freezing. I'm very loud.
I'm standing in front of my closet looking at all my clothes.
And I'm like, how do I dress that says
that I'm not in a game romance with my friend, John.
So I'm trying to pick the straightest clothes.
But everything I have is like athletic cut,
like super tight fitting. I've got a pair of pink pants,
like everything's skinny fit. And I was like, Sean's going down. Oh no. The story ends very sadly,
because. Well, no, we go to the court the next day. The story ends very sadly because we go to the
court, we show up. I get sworn in, everybody gets sworn in. Well, we all get sworn in and actually Emily McBride, our former e-commerce.
She was there also to testify like what I did at the office and you're like that.
That we were indeed not fucking.
And so we go into the court of everything like that.
Everyone gets sworn in like that.
We're up in the front and then all the witnesses are in the back and everything like that.
And up front, my lawyer brings up this part of the case and brings up that we were told
this was not going to be part of the case.
Is it part of the case or not?
And I'm like, uh, uh, Blaine is getting so anxious.
He's ready to just spill the beans that how fucking straight he is.
And I brought dumbbells to exhibit a that is not what is that mean?
What does that mean?
I just don't work out.
Okay, good point.
They work out more than I do probably.
Exhibit.
One is straight porn.
So at that point, that is, that and only then is when her lawyer says, no, this is not
part of our case.
So Blaine was sadly dismissed and was not called upon to witness in my divorce.
I had to take the day off of work and everything.
The park downtown, I had to pay for parking and expressed to me after
the court, even I won and the court, the divorce ended fine, everything like that. But
that blame was really sad that he could not testify in my divorce and was not actually
part of the actual hearing. I got sworn in. I was that the you know, you were sworn
into my divorce. So I feel like you brought us brought us closer together. It did.
It did. It did. It's good times.
Don't hold hands careful. Yeah. Well the papers are done. Now I can have sex with them. Okay. So we're good. So that's the show folks.
So now we're gonna go have birthday sex. Thanks for tuning in.
