Oh, really nothing world is just perfect. I think totally totally normal
Nothing unusual to talk about in the past couple of days
I'm sure we're gonna talk about it. I'm fine. We'll get there. I finally understand the smash mouth song that goes
Because the world's on fire. How about you? Is that smash mouth? that goes one thong thong that goes the world's on fire how about yours is that smash mouth?
yeah
would you wear a soul-smouth thong?
absolutely that's genius actually
having something someone say smash mouth at the front
because he smashed your mouth right there
well we're hopefully not smash your mouth
am I hurting a little bit?
oh I'm looking at her mouth, am I hurting a little bit? Oh, I'm looking out.
You know, TV with it?
Yeah, TV.
No, no, no.
Isn't there a horror movie called Teeth
where the woman's vagina has teeth in it?
I haven't seen it, but now I want to have teeth.
I remember the trailer.
I just want to see it all.
I kind of want that now.
Same.
There's a smash mouth thong.
Thong, I can't even say it.
Oh, hot and sexy smash mouth thong.
Yeah, hot and sexy smash mouth. Steve Har. Yeah, hot and sexy Smash Mouth.
Steve Harwell, All Star logo, G-string white.
Oh, the guy that search engine optimization,

Oh my God.
All right, next week we'll all wear that.
Wow, well next week is gonna be a podcast from RTX.
Yeah, which is this weekend.
Yes.
RTX event.com.
Take it's still available.
Come see us.
It's not even this, it's three days. Yeah, yeah, like until we start doing stuff. It's been two years
I
I built I built I had to I've been working on the black box down panel all day well most of the day today
Oh, I built a deck in Google slides for the first time ever and I was like I'm gonna I'm gonna give a presentation
You're so cute, right?
Is that like a PowerPoint?
Yeah, it's like, how many slides is it?
Let me look.
You gonna have a clicker?
Yeah.
No, I'm gonna do it for my laptop.
Gus is first.
Oh, sorry.
Okay, it's, okay, I'm loading it.
I'm trying to see how many slides it is.
It is 44 slides.
Wow, how long's your panel in hour?
An hour. I just want to make it. Gonna fly through it. No pun intended.
Can I make one slide on it? No. And it will just pop up at random throughout the, and you have to quickly skip it.
All right, send me a
1920 by 1080. Are you allowed to see it slide?
It goes on or does he have to like look at it blind?
I want him to be scared that it's gonna be
the next slide at any point.
Okay.
Whatever I feel like Jessica.
What would you put on Gus' slide?
What makes Gus uncomfortable?
I know it's not a lot.
So I'm not really.
I'm not sure that one thing.
But the thing that would,
okay.
The thing I'm gonna comfortable is
showing something in public like that. Like the fear that would, the thing that would make uncomfortable is showing something in public like that,
like the fear that it's not, I don't care,
but the fear that I'm gonna get in trouble.
There has to be a weakness to you, Gus, what is it?
Gus doesn't have a weakness.
I'm the perfect, I'm the perfect human specimen.
He really doesn't, he'll do anything like,
at any time.
We filmed something, yo, you were out the other day
when we filmed that thing.
Oh, I saw a clip.
You see?
Gus was in a skin colored underwear thong thing.
Like, he always are.
It's like, how way picture you?
When I think of you, I think of you that way.
I held up like three different flesh colored underwears.
Now, to Chris, I was like, which one of these do you want me to wear?
The best part is John was showing me a little BTS clip
that he took of that, where Blaine was like walking you through what you were gonna do for the action,
and you're behind a curtain, and the way John was filming it, it's wide angle,
so you look so small in the background, I'm like, he looks like a little baby.
That's like running out behind a curtain being like, what should I do now?
It's the beginning of Ristrate.
How many days do you think you've come to work and taken all your clients off?
It's so often.
It's a few. It's so often.
It's a few.
It's less lately, but it's quite a few.
What was the first time you stripped down for Rooster Teeth?
And how did you feel then?
Well, it wasn't four.
I just happened to, it was just,
Well, there was baby Gus.
That probably wasn't the first thing.
Okay.
Baby Gus, you were actually me.
So you've just never had a problem.
Do you go to nude beaches?
Have you ever been?
No.
No, okay.
I mean, if I encounter one, I probably have no problem with it
But I've been involved going to the beach and being outside, you know
Okay, I was gonna say that's not your thing. I don't think I could do a nude beach
Like like would you feel uncomfortable? Or do you feel like people would be looking at you too much?
Yeah, just be worried about what I was doing
But everyone's naked. So like,
yeah, but what if I got like a little bit of a lob on and I can't control it? Do you think
you would? I don't know. That's the risk. That's the fear. That's why I would never do it.
I mean, I feel like that wouldn't you... I was gonna say, wouldn't we want that? But I feel like
multiple people might have, what is it a lob? Lob on? Lobon? Lobster. Oh, you can tan your dick that way.
Small lobster in your pants.
That's so interesting, yeah, because I feel,
yeah, I think if you're just around a bunch of nude bodies,
you're just kind of like, and no one's doing anything sexual.
It's just like, you're doing a lot of fun.
No, it doesn't sound very sex, you have to be worried.
And then I'd be worried that I have to hide it
by like diving into the sand.
It'd be like a little hole in the sand.
Just carry, just carry a hot dog bun with you the whole time.
Then you'd be like, I'm just holding a hot dog here.
Just a bit of mustard on the top.
You also could go to a nude beach and not be nude.
Yeah.
That's a bit weird, isn't it?
No.
I think like it's, you have the option to be nude at nude beaches,
but it's not required.
It's not like take your fucking clothes off
and go sit on the sand.
I don't know, it's like every European beach.
Nude beach?
Everyone on holiday in Europe would just tits everywhere.
I was gonna say, I would love to be able to not have
tan lines from a bathing suit.
So I get the interest there of having tits out.
Yeah, it's not really, people don't really bat an eyelid.
Suns out.
Tits out.
It's really, it's just like,
all in Europe too.
Well, I feel like tits are like,
that's a common thing out,
but I mean, it's like whole thing,
everything out.
Everything?
I think I would do it, would you?
If you were at a new beach and somewhere,
you're just,
I feel like if I was lying down,
I'd be okay with that.
Like, I wouldn't want to walk around,
Nikki, Nikki.
Okay.
But like, if I was like lying down tanning, lying down tanning, I'd be okay with that.
Yeah.
I have a friend who just loves getting naked at all times,
so anytime we're drunk.
Because we're drunk.
Because we're drunk.
We're drunk.
No, but anytime we're drinking and we're not at a public place,
she'll just take her clothes off and just be naked,
and then she'll try and force everyone else to take
their clothes off too.
And sometimes I'm like, I'm just not in the mood to be naked.
Do I know?
She's like, take her off.
You've met her before.
OK.
My friend, I've had since college.
And she'll peer pressure me.
And just take my clothes off.
I'm like, good.
Damn it.
You don't have to submit to peer pressure.
It gets like a lot of sadness.
OK.
This is really funny trend I've seen in social media where a bunch of girlfriends
will get together and then off camera one at a time, one girl will flash her boobs to
her friends and the camera will be filming her friends so you'll get their friends reactions
to seeing their friends boobs for the first time and it's so cute.
I love it.
I love it.
It's people being like, oh, yeah. Oh! Oh! I think it's like,
or what?
Like, just having a really grand reaction to it.
Yes.
Yes.
But I think we're too old for that now at this point.
I know, man,
because the same best friend,
she was just like,
I feel like if you've had a friendship,
I guess maybe this is more for women,
I don't know for how it is with men,
but she's like,
if you've had a friend for this long,
she's like, I expected to have seen your naked body
at this point.
And her, one of her other friends,
she doesn't like getting naked.
So she's been friends with her for like 20 plus years
and still hasn't seen her naked
and she's like upset by it.
I'm like, it's okay.
You shouldn't need to.
Yeah, she's scared.
No, no pure pressure.
Gus on the other hand is like, all right, what?
Yeah, you told everyone having that in reaction. I was like, oh, I'll pressure. Yeah. Gus on the other hand is like, all right, what? Yeah, you told everyone having that reaction.
I was like, oh, I'll never have that.
I give my no way to or really.
Yeah.
You're my no way for free.
Oh, God.
There's Gus.
There's Gus again in the nude.
Has anybody watched on Netflix?
I've been telling everyone about this.
Not yet.
The Indian movie, RRR. Not yet. The Indian movie, R-R-R.
Not yet.
It's fucking amazing.
I-
Did you talk-
You talked about it.
When did you talk about it in the stream?
I talked about it just in the office.
Okay.
Because, oh yeah, last week I was supposed-
went to pre-tape last week's podcast.
But I had been-
The day before that pre-tape,
I had been in close proximity to someone
who ended up testing positive for COVID.
Yeah.
So I wasn't sick or anything, but out of precaution, I quarantined myself and I did not come in for that pre-tap.
I did not come in the rest of that week.
I ended up not getting COVID.
Yeah.
Still, pure Gus, baby.
So that's why I couldn't talk about our, our, our, during the last pre-tap.
But now I'm finally back again.
It's apparently three hours.
It's three hours long, and it is one of my all-time favorite movies now.
I know it's like a lot to ask of someone to watch, because it's like it's a three-hour film.
It's subtitled, and you know, it's, it's, I, I have trouble sitting down to watch like one hour television show.
So I get it.
It's these days, yeah.
You know, it's like a three hour long movie, but it's like, it just starts and it just
fucking goes.
Did you do it in one sing?
Yeah, I was at first.
I was like, I'll just start watching it.
And you know, maybe I'll turn it off.
And then I was like, like, like, put everything aside.
Like this is, this is my entire focus for three hours.
And it's so interesting because it's just such a bright and vibrant movie.
I guess I've been, I've been, I don't know, it's just the way it's shot.
It's just like hitting you in the face with color for three hours.
What is it out again?
Because I've heard it, I haven't watched the trailer.
It's, do not watch trailer.
Okay, trailers, the trailers for this movie give away some really cool reveals from the movie.
And I feel like if you watched the trailers, it would like lessen things that happened during the movie.
It's like, it's set in 1920s, India. So sorry Gavin, you're the bad guy here.
During the British occupation of India.
And it's about kind of like fighting against the British Empire and like rising up against it.
And it's similar to Inglorious Bastards in that the main characters were real people,
but in reality they never met.
So it's kind of like fanfiction, like what if these revolutionaries had met and what
would the impact have been on the occupying British Empire?
I love that.
And so it's just, it's wild.
We directed it?
OK, so this is just a complete, it's a foreign film, right?
Yeah, so on Netflix.
OK.
So on Netflix.
And it's also, it's so popular that some theaters are doing
like theatrical showings of it.
Even though you can watch it on Netflix.
Nice.
I actually, I want, I would love to go to the theater
and watch this movie again on the big screen.
Yeah, it's just like it's a joy to look at. It's just it's just so
Different than a lot of the same shit we get over and over
I love saving long movies for planes
Pretty soon. Okay, I would I would honestly
I wasn't next time you'll be on a plane. Pretty soon.
I would honestly, having watched it,
I think it would be better to watch it
with a nice set up at home,
like something where you have HDR and...
Like a little screen, you'd like to watch,
well I guess it's a movie like that,
I wouldn't wanna watch that, yeah.
Yeah, you should watch it at home I think.
You should experience that in full screenage.
And it's got the best dance off I've ever seen in my life.
Oh my gosh, I'm so excited!
I guess I think it is.
Wow, it's incredible.
Are you guys watching The Boys?
It's really good.
Speaking of content.
Yes.
Are you caught up?
Yes.
Are you caught up?
Yes.
Gavin, do you watch The Boys?
No, okay. It's an excellent show.
It is very good. It is so violent.
Yeah.
Like, there was a warning at the beginning of this episode.
That was so tongue in cheek.
That was just like, essentially, emulating a warning
before like a really like gory or like not suitable
for all audiences kind of thing.
But it's just like,
but we spent a ton of money on our effects budget and like you know to expect already at this
point and like it's not suitable for some actually all viewers but
Yeah, they did that with stranger things, but I think that was because of the you've all these you know, oh yeah
The stranger things did it in an actual serious way. This was a tongue-in-cheek like
This is more violent than like Game of Thrones? Oh, Hell yes.
Yes.
Like very much so.
Yeah, I mean, and like not to the point
where something violent and gory will happen
and they don't show it in the wide
or they don't cut away, it's like they'll show it
in the wide and then punch in and be like,
look at it, there it is.
Like there was one point where someone laser beam someone's head
and like it like you saw the little thing through
and then it went and just like the top of the head slid off.
I love that.
Like Resident Evil,
like a great sort of thing.
Video game, yeah.
Yeah.
GOR.
It's great though.
It's a really a really great show.
The acting in it is phenomenal too.
The guy who plays home lander is.
He's like scary and evil scary yeah but like there's
I feel like that character is becoming more complex to especially in the most
recent episode he's the villain yeah okay okay a villain I would say probably
yeah the villain but watch it Amazon Prime so you just said like the warning before the boy, sorry, I'm going to talk about RR again,
you can't get away.
They have a boilerplate before the movie starts, that I forget the wording, I was trying
to look it up here, but I can't find it.
But there's a message at when the movie starts it says, all the animals depicted in this
movie except for birds are computer generated. No animals were harmed in the making of this film.
I love when they say that because I have an issue with.
Yeah, it's like all horses, all cows, they list, like all the animals,
like are all computer generated creatures.
Okay, that's good.
Yeah.
Do you think it's because they couldn't get the real cows to send a release?
And for the most part, it looks pretty good,
but there's sometimes where there's like a dude on a horse and you're like, that's just a stuffed animal. Like, you can see
he's moving. You don't like animals and stuff. No, I don't like when watching animals
get hurt. Like, there's, I mean, I guess Game of Thrones is a good example of like when
the the horses fall like in battle. I'm like, is that, is that really happening? And
if so, does that hurt the horse? Or are they like, no, they fall all the time, it's fine.
But that, it bothers me.
In Western's level of old films,
they used to just full on trip and like, why is it stuff?
Yeah.
Yeah, nowadays they are trained, but yeah, you're right.
Like why?
It would, the animals not choosing to do this.
Like it didn't pick a career.
Yeah.
We did an episode with, I think it's Cordo or Digital,
where they talked about the VFX and Game of Thrones.
And there were some, at least I noticed,
that the falling down scenes of them in battle
with the horse was VFX.
And that made me feel better.
But I don't know if that was the every single episode season.
So... Yeah, it's pretty recent in movie history
that they used to just mess up animals on camera.
That's so fucked up.
Like I think the first Halloween has a snake
just getting cut and off.
But actual real snake?
Yeah, and like what's some of the early bonds,
they like harpoon sharks and shit.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah, I found the content warning, by the way.
Oh, yeah.
So this is from the boys.
Some scenes may not be suitable for some really most,
let's be honest, all viewers,
but rest assured that any consensual relationship depicted be they human animal superhero
or other aren't real, harmed no one, and in fact cost a hilariously large amount in visual effects.
Okay.
So that was the little warning they had before this episode.
Hero Gasm is what it was called.
Yes. Yes. That's what we're pushing for each real man.
Yeah. RTS
Oh, I don't know if you if anybody watched I think I probably talked about a couple of weeks ago anybody watched the offer on Paramount Plus, but it's like a
A story about the producer who made the Godfather and like that the making of the Godfather
But in one of the episodes,
they talk about having to get the horse head
for that scene from the Godfather,
which was a real horse head that they put in the bed
with that actor.
Oh damn.
What?
Oh man, was it a, I don't wanna know.
I wanna read it too.
I mean they, it appeared.
Was it a horse that was already like,
apparently it was a horse that was being processed
for a dog food factory already.
Oh Jesus.
So they just had the head already
and they were able to get the head.
We do dog food course.
Right.
Dogsy anything.
Oh, it's Friday the 13th with a string.
But that was a lot.
I know dogs eat anything,
but is that something that companies are using
in dog food is Is horse meat?
I think so.
A horse is used for it.
I knew.
Got it.
I think they used to be.
They might still be.
I think they used to be.
I think that it is to some extent still.
Weird.
I ate a horse in Japan.
It was delicious.
Can you know, are you here?
No.
I don't think so.
Yeah.
What other weird animals could you eat in other countries that you can't eat here? Now you can have kangaroo in Australia. Dog. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, like my views are like, I would not eat that. I need to be respectful as they like, that's what, you know, but it just
rose me the wrong way a little bit.
Y'all.
I don't know if I, if I could.
I just watched that episode of The Simpsons
the other night where Lisa becomes a vegetarian.
I just saw that with two.
Yeah, me and her just watched that one.
And it's like she meets little lamb
and then she's picturing in it, in her head going.
Lisa, I thought you loved me.
It's like, oh my god.
It's a cute little lamb, though.
Yeah, but you mean you can make any animal cute, right?
It's like a baby cow or anything else that we eat.
It's like, would you use to growing up
or what your comfort is, like as far as what you'll eat
and what you only eat?
My dad has eaten a lot of different things
during his travels for work.
And he said that the two worst things
he's ever had is sea cucumber and eel.
And he says it just tastes like.
Oh, eel can be good and like some sushi.
Yeah, there's eel sushi that's actually quite good.
He just doesn't like it, I guess,
but he said the sea cucumber was by far the worst.
I've heard that before from other people
that the sea cucumber is rough.
You would think about it. I'm just like, oh, okay. I've heard that before from other people that see a cucumber is rough. There's also a fish that's eaten in Korea, I believe, called skate.
I don't know if you've ever heard of it.
Skate can be pretty nasty to eat if you're not used to it.
There's just a fish.
Yeah, and I think it excretes ureac acid through its skin, which is like kind of like one of the primary parts of urine.
Oh, you're right.
Okay.
So it's like, if it's not cleaned and prepared very thoroughly,
it can be a rough thing to eat.
Piss fish.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Piss fish.
How do you try the piss fish?
Skate, totally different name.
I can't deal with that urchin stuff, Uni.
It's so good, the whole thing.
No, it isn't, it's horrendous.
Uni is so good, dude.
What's good about it?
It's so rich and buttery, have you ever had?
No, I don't know what you're talking about.
Yeah, it's like, you know what an urchin is?
Yeah.
Okay, it's like, they flip it over
and then you can cut out
the bottom part and you basically take out its gonads.
And it's like a yellowish orange spread.
Imagine eating an orange sneeze.
Yeah.
What an orange sneeze.
Is sneeze at you?
Yeah, like a hanky full of orange paste.
Is it the texture that's better, the taste? Oh, just horrendous.
Ugh.
Ugh.
You click on something.
So you eat it even with the little spikies.
You know, you normally would eat it like this,
like you would take it out.
Someone else just had the presentation of it.
You can get it sushi restaurants.
Yeah, mine like that.
And it was just so much.
I could tell that Gavin is feeling like he's gonna gag
if he starts blocking his nose while he's talking
and it caught his thoughts like this.
Let's get talking about it.
I can see that I feel like the thing
and who is someone to chat say that.
Just a fiat, I believe,
said this the texture of Ooni that kills them.
The texture can be, if you're already mentally grossed out
about the prospect of eating it, and then the texture hits your mouth,
then you can psych yourself out and be like, this is disgusting.
But if you try to approach it, in my opinion, if you try to approach it with an open mind,
I'm going to try this, this is like a food a lot of people consider delicious.
I'm going to see what this is all about. You can appreciate it a lot. See, I can't. The texture like Evan. Like a of people consider delicious. I'm gonna see what this all about. You can like appreciate it a lot.
See, I can't-
I just think you're like Evan.
Like a congealed sneeze.
Okay, all right, congealed.
I just didn't really know about it before eight.
So I wasn't prepared for it to be gross.
They were just like, okay, it's some onion.
It was like a seaweed thing,
which is like a little on top.
And I was just like,
what's that, I think it's like-
Stirring recommendation.
It's like, it looks like octopus tentacles where they were when you eat it, it's still kind of moving. What is that I think it's like recommendation. It's like it looks like octopus tentacles where they were when you eat it still kind
of moving.
What is that?
Octopus.
I can be octopus or squid.
Yeah.
I think typically it's octopus though.
It's like on a salad and it looks raw and like I just pick it up and it's still moving.
I would never just.
I can't.
Well lots of times what's done with that is they'll sprinkle like lemon juice on it and
the citric acid causes a reaction in the nerves
which would cause them to kind of tighten up
and make it look like it's still squirming and moving.
I've tried to eat that.
I couldn't, what have you not?
I like, when I travel, I like to eat things that are unusual.
And I want to try to eat things that I can't get here.
That's why I went out to Japan.
I was like, I have an opportunity to horse.
I'm here to horse.
Okay.
Yeah, you will get.
You know, like overseas, like if I see something weird,
it's like, well, no, I gotta try it.
Absolutely.
I'm 44 years old.
Like, I mean, I can only eat, I love cheeseburgers.
Well, when I'm traveling, I want to eat something different.
I want to eat something unusual.
Well, because you've tried so much,
what is the most disgusting thing you've had?
Yeah, most disgusting thing you know.
Well, I know Gus doesn't like cucumber.
Okay.
And then just regular cucumber.
Okay.
I'm also not a big, despite the fact that I like it.
I'm not a big seafood fan.
I do try seafood when I travel.
Cucumber is my main though.
Ugh.
Like a normal cucumber, you just don't like a cucumber?
No. It just tastes like water. No, normal cucumber, you just don't like a cucumber? No.
It just tastes like water.
No, for me, it's like overpowering.
If a cucumber touches anything on my plate, I can tell.
Like, it's just like, wow.
Like I did this test.
It dominates the flavor of everything.
And all I can taste is cucumber.
It's not a little flavor, right?
I think it's well-paced, but it's not like.
I think if you don't like something,
it doesn't become a subtle flavor.
I guess it's subtle flavor. I guess so.
I'm like that with olives.
If someone's picked olives out of some pasta sauce.
Or like a pizza.
I still like, I'll get it down.
It's just like, love olives.
Wow, okay.
I love olives first.
I love olives, yeah.
But cucumber is just so interesting.
I like olives.
I figured out the only food I don't like.
Oh yeah.
And it's not even like, I don't like it in stuff. I just don't like it by them. I figured out the only food I don't like. Oh yeah? And it's not even like I don't like it in stuff,
I just don't like it by itself.
Yeah.
Those craft American cheese slices.
The ones that come like pre-packaged.
It tastes like processed food.
I just, well, this processed food, but it tastes like fake.
The idea of like eating that by itself makes me gag.
Mm-hmm.
I can see that for sure.
I don't, I just.
What about in other preparations?
As opposed to just eating
it by itself. In a grilled cheese sandwich like if it's melted, totally fine. That's right,
that's exactly where I was getting. Totally fine. Yeah. So we'll get you one of them,
we'll get me some uni. No. What you get? These are all yellow things.
You come first. Cucumbus. What are you not like Jessica? I don't know. I'm not a big seafood
person either. So anytime somebody will will give me something that's seafood,
like raw seafood, sushi me, I can't eat that
because it tastes like fish.
I don't want it to taste like the ocean.
I feel like it's not.
It depends on the bits you eat, I think.
Some sashimi doesn't taste fishy at all.
And I think that's if it's made proper.
Yeah, like some, some flavor is like really,
like I feel like yellow tail.
It's always just like, that doesn't taste like fish to me.
Yeah, that's exactly what I was gonna recommend.
Like a hamachi, like a yellow tail,
with like a little bit of like a sliver of a serrano pepper
on it or something.
Or it's like a little bit of heat to it.
Or, yeah.
And honestly, the salmon is what you find.
And it's like, depending, sometimes this is
a very fishy tasting.
Same with salmon, everyone loves salmon,
but it tastes like fish to me,
maybe because it's not prepared.
Or maybe because of this fish.
Yeah, maybe you're tasting fish to me, maybe because it's not prepared. Or maybe because it is fish. Yeah, maybe you're tasting fish.
Well, also, I think.
It's also being sensitive to it.
Uh, lots of times salmon is smoked too, which is a different preparation.
Yeah.
And, you know, if it depends on how you, how you, how you feel about smoked foods, might
influence that.
I will try everything once though, but the thing that trips me up the most is the texture
of it all.
So if I try that octopus, move, I just I know I'm like
I won't this is something I will only try once because I just it's in my brain and I can't get over
it. For the people coming into Austin for RTX this weekend, what would be one restaurant you would
recommend to them? Do you have like a favorite Austin place? Do any of you guys have one?
Man, so I'm trying to think what's near the convention center,
right? Like something convenient down there in that area.
And I don't eat in that area very often.
There's a, it's not super close, but there's a, a vegan Mexican trailer
over like East 12,
oh hell yeah,
Colnissie. that's really good.
Have excellent beans and rice.
I'm very picky about my Mexican beans and rice
and they do it good and it's vegan
and it's fucking phenomenal.
They have a brick and mortar
that they just opened up off of 183,
but they have a trailer over on the East side
and East 12th.
We used to go to that Philly cheese steak food truck
many years ago.
Does that still exist?
The Philly, oh, a big waste out of Philly.
So they had a brick and mortar on Burnett, which just closed.
Damn.
I think they are gone now.
I have a complaint about someone on this podcast.
Should we guess who?
Yep.
It's probably me, but I'm going to say Jessica. It is, Jessica Visami, because she doesn't seem to like it when I listen to her podcast. Why?
Well, it's weird. It's weird. Like, if you were to tell me that you're listening to 30
more minutes, I'd be like, that's really sweet and so kind. But it's just like, I know you guys,
and it's really weird.
You guys are also doing your own podcasts, too.
So I think that means a good show.
Hit your podcast.
Yeah.
Tell everyone 30 more than minutes.
30 more than minutes.
Go listen.
What's it about?
Thanks for that, Kevin.
Yeah.
Yeah, 30 more minutes if you haven't listened to it.
Yeah, I'm actually wearing one of the shirts.
I didn't do that on purpose.
Oh, nice.
It's very cute
This is a little curiosity cabinet t-shirt. You can get it in black at the researchy store as well
Um, but yeah, if you haven't listened to me in Elise and we talk about all weird and unknown morbid
strange stuff
And we just basically we're just picking topics that we were both fascinated by,
and then find some sort of morbid angle to it,
which there usually is to a lot of these topics.
But you just put out a little season two.
Preview for the next season, right?
Yeah, we're in season two.
The first episode of season two was Death at Disney Parks,
which that was a really morbid podcast
because it's the happiest place on earth.
And death has happened there. No, it doesn't. Well, I think it was a really morbid podcast because it's the happiest place on earth and death has happened there 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, 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, I think you just don't. You just... What if I fell into a pit of cement and hardened into the ground?
It might be a little hard to argue against.
Yeah, yeah, my feet.
Yeah, that would be hard for sure.
And then we went over a second episode that's out today for our T First Members.
Is Lathie and Pailer and if he was like the first vampire and where
the first vampire came from, the empire aren't real, or are they?
Gus.
So that was that one.
Yeah, that one was a good one.
A question about this podcast.
Yeah.
So I don't have like a sue anything about you.
But I know we've talked about in the past how like we're
pretty anxious people.
You could be like kind of paranoid or like, you know,
so do you find doing this kind of podcast has like helped you with
those kinds of thoughts or do you feel like it's almost like when you have a fear and you
partake in something that relates to that fear and it makes it a little more normal or like
less scary. So to be completely honest, the only thing that really
scares me is the demon stuff and there was an episode we put out where we did talk about an exorcism.
And the way that I approached that subject was,
and this was, I guess kind of my bad,
because I didn't really put too much emphasis
on the other side as in like the people
that don't believe in this.
So I was just talking from a place of like,
this is what was happening to her.
This is, you know, she went through all of this and this is what was happening to her. She went through all of this,
and this is what she was telling police
and everybody involved.
And I didn't definitely mention like,
hey, she went to a doctor and a psychologist
and they made sure to run tests,
and she was of sound mind and all this other stuff.
But the comments blew up on the site,
and they were basically talking about how,
you talked about this just from like somebody
that does believe in this type of stuff and demons and all that.
And they're like, I don't believe in this stuff.
So by you, it was confusing.
And it, because when I was doing research for that episode, it legitimately did keep
me up at night.
And I slept with my lights on.
And I hadn't talked about this stuff in a long time because I don't like to surround
myself with that type of energy. Because regardless of whether I I'm religious or not and I'm not religious, it's
it's just still stuck inside me and I think it's because it's it's paranormal and
you can't see it or prove it. You don't really know. So I'm like, oh there's always
just that chance that something evil is out there and I can't it's not like
somebody coming in and I can take a knife and like stab this person through the
chest you know?
And so by reading those comments though,
it did make me feel a little bit better
that like I can simply just choose not to believe in this
therefore not be scared of it anymore.
Interesting.
And it was really interesting to go through those comments
and kind of like, because at first I was like,
oh man, I feel super bad, I fucked up,
I told a lie to them like I'm so sorry,
I didn't talk about this certain subject
from the side of like science,
when we make sure to like debunk stuff
and look at it from all sides, you know,
and I did it in this case,
because I let my own kind of thoughts.
You guys aren't claiming to be experts on the subject
and you're just kind of talking about it
from an interest perspective.
But that's a really great question to ask
because I did after that,
taking a consideration of like, I can just be like no just no
I don't believe in this no. I'm not afraid of this anymore and then move on with life
So you listen to it Gaff
Well not anymore
She's like it don't listen to it. It's weird and even like my friends that don't work at Rupert
They say they listen to it and that I can accept a little bit more
But I think you guys, it's just like strange, I don't know.
Yeah, Jessica texted me the other day.
I was like, it's weird when you text me
and you're also talking in my ear at the same time.
And you were like,
Why are you listening to my blog, it has this weird stop it.
Yeah, and you should keep listening to it.
Yeah, just don't tell her.
You're being a good friend.
I appreciate that.
I definitely appreciate that.
I mean, this is gonna be a weird question
because everyone should listen to all the shows we make.
I know. But do you guys like, is there a show that we make that you consume regularly?
RTA.
You saw me watching it earlier today.
Yeah, it was always open for a thing. It definitely was because I don't know.
I love getting into the juicy like you guys
talking about all different kinds of things and I loved the cast that would come on.
Can you talk into it?
Thank you, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Someone had chat to say to me, you were quiet.
Oh, I'm sorry.
She has such a lovely voice.
Yeah.
It was funny.
You bring up like people, it's weird and people like at work, watch the stuff you're making.
The years ago when I would go to the animation studio to do like
VO or something. And I'd be walking like through like everyone's desk and people were working.
And every now and then I would see some people with always open up on their like second monitor
like watching it. And I was just like, oh my god. So embarrassed. Like what kind of
kinks am I talking about in this episode? Exactly. Exactly. It's weird for people at work. And also,
I love watching your eels take talks. Oh, thank you. And I even work, and also I love watching you all's TikToks.
Oh, thank you.
And I even like, we'll retweet them sometimes
when I'm like, this is Oliver.
I love getting a message from Jessica being like,
this was so good!
Oh, such a big fan of you guys.
Yeah, what about you guys?
What are you?
Yeah, RTA.
Okay, what about you?
You also watch Block Island as well.
So I block Island.
All the episodes are out now.
I'm actually super excited for our Survive Block Island island. All the episodes are out now. I'm actually super excited for our
so I block island panel.
We have a reunion panel.
I have.
I need to watch that.
I have stuff to talk about.
I'm sure you do.
Have you been bullshit in the edit?
So I have concerns.
I need to air.
I have grievances that have gone unanswered.
I haven't seen it.
The only thing I've heard is that like,
Barbara just fucking dominated.
That's all.
Bye.
I don't know.
You'll also watch the fun now.
Okay.
We did certain things.
Yeah.
But yeah, in season two it's coming in September,
which.
Did it, oh, Gabin going beyond?
Gabin, you going beyond it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know what?
I think at first night at RTX they're actually going to potentially
have a little teaser for season two. Oh really? Okay. I didn't know that. Yeah. So that'll be pretty
cool. But yeah, there's a reunion panel at RTX. Okay. And like, okay, that's going to be fun.
I I screwed over a lot of people on that show.
And so I'm really nervous to be up there on a panel
with everybody in half-time.
My beef is not your bar, bro.
It shouldn't be.
Yeah.
Who's it with?
Yeah, the viewer, if you go to the panel and find out.
Okay.
Okay.
I guess, I guess.
Which time is this panel at?
It is Sunday, I believe.
Okay.
I'm pulling it up.
Sunday at noon.
Noon.
Okay.
I just wanna go for the drama. It's right before the always open panel
Okay, perfect. Which is at 230. Oh no 30 more minutes panels right before always open. Yeah, damn it
Okay, yeah, that might okay. Are you gonna ban all your friends from that panel too?
Yeah, anybody that I know directly in the audience will be like do you know this?
Yeah

Life can be overwhelming,
and many people are burned out without even knowing it.
You know, symptoms can include lack of motivation,
feeling helpless or trapped,
detachment, fatigue, and more.
Do any of those sound familiar to you?
I'm sure that sounds familiar to a lot of us.
I'm sure we all know a lot of people dealing
with burnout.
I've been doing this job a long time, 19 years.
I know all about burnout.
It's that feeling when it's too hard to get out of bed,
too much to start your day, the overwhelming dread you have
associated with something that didn't make you feel
the way you felt before.
It's hard.
I've been there.
I think a lot of us have been there.
We associate burnout with work,
but it's not the only cause.
Any of our roles in life can lead us to feel burned out
and better help online therapy.

what's causing stress in your life,
but that's why we have therapy, right?

One of my old neighbors,
so I moved from that house years ago,
texted me like last summer,
I was like, hey, I was just randomly on a road trip
to Colorado, I was looking for a podcast,
listened to and I found black boxed down.
So I listened to it on the whole way driving from Austin to Colorado and back
That's really weird
That's yeah, that's kind of how I feel. I don't know why it's just a strange thing
Like the people that you know in your life. You're like, oh, thank you
Yeah, ever rewatch something you've made but trying to do it with the perspective of someone else that you just found out watched it
Yeah, I hate it. Yeah, I hate it too.
I hate it too.
So cringed.
That was awful.
I hated myself in the last laugh.
And I was like, I am never going to do that again.
Ever.
Watching like any RT podcast from like,
I guess any RT podcast that I'm on.
I just go like, oh my God, why did I say it that way?
Or why was I listening in this moment to respond this way?
Yeah. Sometimes like all zone, when we're in a middle
of a conversation and I'll ask a question that has already
been addressed, like literally like a second later.
And I feel like such an idiot, especially when I wash that back
and I go, how did I not hear them just say that?
Because they're so boring.
That's probably why.
It happened.
It happened a couple of weeks ago that we
did the pre-taping that other room.
And I remember you asked me, I had just explained something. Then you asked me if it was Quizzes and Kelly. It was a couple weeks ago that we get the pre-taping that other room. And I remember you asked me, I had just explained something,
then you asked me if it quits.
It was a telepathy.
It was a hazelut thing.
And I paused for a second and I was like,
is she fucking with me?
What the fuck?
Oh, that's great.
I think that's because we were talking about something else.
And I wanted to look up the answer to something
that we were talking about on my phone.
Which happens.
Which, I'm terrible at multitasking.
Like, I'll just, if I'm looking for an answer to something,
I'll stop hearing things.
And someone brought up hazelnuts
and I was like, oh, Nutella uses a lot of hazelnuts.
And you guys were like, mm-hmm.
Yeah, to me, I always think I can do that,
where I'm always like, let me just quickly Google that
while I'm watching the thing.
And my brain sort of like, Photoshop's over the gap.
No, I missed.
And I, you feel like I haven't,
I feel like at the time I didn't miss anything.
And then I'm listening to what I say.
I'm like, yeah, I definitely didn't hear what I said. I'm just like I haven't I feel like at the time I didn't miss anything and then I'm listening to what I say I'm like yeah, I definitely didn't
It's like it's not a condemnation of anybody. I think
Nobody can multitask. I think every human being is incapable of doing two things like that
I think nobody can do it and the people who think they can don't realize they can't right or they're just doing like a 50%
Job at both and it's not great your way.
Yeah, yeah, totally agree.
I don't know, what about you, Giff?
Is there anything you've watched that,
like you try to put yourself in the viewer's perspective
and like how do you feel about that?
Like are you proud of your own stuff?
Yes, we might as last laugh,
you're just what, just signing RT pockets.
Okay, that's great.
Okay, any at all.
Probably some bleep face.
Yeah.
OK.
If I find out that someone I know,
listen to, you know, X episode, I'll be like,
I'll try and imagine like being them listening to it.
No, that's fine.
I, that's one of the other, like, RT products I watch
and consume.
I don't listen to every single week,
but I listen to fuckface every now and then.
I specifically made myself listen to the salad dressing
or the dressing episode.
What happened in that one?
It was just very spicy, very spicy episode.
Or no, the condiment one.
The condiment one is, yeah, that's the one that nearly
calls Jeff to quit the podcast.
One of them had to essentially come up with their own condiment. No. And Jeff's
condiment was a full meal. Be careful how you address this. It's a touchy subject. It is.
I found that out the hard way by bringing it up to him. Oh my gosh. Yeah. Makes the same thing.
I did it. It should be like, you did with the condom it's right? I'm like
Yeah, it's a it's a really fun podcast to listen to okay. I don't listen to Annma yet
We just wrapped up our eighth episode just came out
Yesterday slash today and then I were going like on a two-week break and then we'll be back with new ones
Oh nice listen to the first two so far. It's been an interesting retelling,
an interesting retrospective on stuff we've been through.
Yeah, I think it's fun to talk about now
with so much distance on the events
and like trying to, like having more perspective on it
and being able to like, hopefully objectively look at it.
I think Gus holds the record at the company for being in the most podcasts we make.
I think so.
Because you do RT Podcast, Tails from the Stinky Dragon, and Black Box Down.
Those are the four that I consider your main.
Yeah, I could do a lot of work.
Yeah, are you in other stuff?
I can't think of my head up in my head. That's why I
I guess Jeff is in fuckface annual pass. Uh, and my
Is that it? That's it. Yeah, I like anime because it's still it reminds me of like being a
teenager fan. It's like this is this was the kind of thing I was listening to.
Yeah, I stepped in like,
don't stop listening to the RT podcast in her place.
In episode eight of Anma, I told,
like I started telling a story in episode seven
and I forgot and lost track of it.
And I remember them when we did episode eight,
I like went back and started back and like finished the story.
And it involved me like emailing the short version. Listen to that and much
want to hear the whole story. The short version is I when I was like 15 I sent
an email to Bungie the video game developer so I found like a bug in one of
their games I wanted to confirm it and someone wrote me back and like I'd
always remember that name and it like inspired me like being so young like wow
You can contact anybody on the internet and they'll reply to you and then like 30 years later
I walked into a meeting here in Austin and a video game developer and that dude walked in the door
He introduced himself and I was like I remember he was like did you use to work at bungee because you answered an email
I said when I was like 15 years old
And he was like yeah, I used to have I used to answer the customer service emails back then. And I was like, that's crazy.
Anyway, I told that story of Anima.
And someone here at Ruchertief texted me earlier today
and was like, that person was like,
it was great hearing you tell that story of Anima
because when I was 14,
I emailed Ruchertief asking a question about Halo
and you responded.
Now they work here.
Yeah, now they work here.
I had no idea that I don't remember you sending that email.
I had to hold you back there.
Two of that.
I was looking at the always open email to pull some questions for RTX that we're going
to be answering.
And there was someone who had written an email in this week who left a voicemail for us
two or three years ago that we answered on the show,
basically saying like they were in college
and like they felt like they had a hard time
making friends and like they have social anxiety
and blah, blah, blah, blah.
He emailed back and he was like,
I just wanted to update you.
I'm now like married, I'm happier than ever,
I have kids, like, and I really took Y'all's advice
to heart and like actually followed through.
And it really like changed my perspective and I changed my life
and I was like, oh my God.
Oh my gosh, geez.
That's so cool.
Yeah, so that's what that was really cool.
Whenever we get follow-ups and stuff like that,
it's always the coolest thing.
Ugh.
That's those type of emails just kind of remind you.
You're on the show.
What, oh good.
Yeah, I love that.
It was even Tyler.
That's one of my favorites, seriously.
And like, oh wow, we got to like help somebody.
It's okay.
It really is.
It's just going to remind you why you do it.
Yeah.
Yeah, answering his halo question.
Yeah.
I think taking over the video screen on my first
always open was one of my favorite things.
That was great.
That was so great.
I still, in you, no idea., this day, there was so much confusion
because they were messing around with that video screen for a while. And I was like, oh,
is there a problem with the file or like, what's going on? And then it was working. And
then mid-show, all of a sudden, I see Gavin. But for some reason, in my head, I thought they had like mixed two video loops.
And like had ours and somehow like a video of Gavin from a green screen that they somehow intertwined.
Not realizing Gavin actually went downtown, found the exact spot that we had the video
loop from and filmed himself. And like the second that clicked, I was like, what the f**k that is.
That is dedication Gavin. That was. Did you have to pull up an episode on your phone for the framing for like a line of words
about my tripod?
But also, I cannot think of a bigger compliment.
I know, it's also so flattering.
Yes.
I feel like I love...
I love doing stuff like that where it's like...
Lots of effort for like a tiny little payoff,
but it's like, it's a really good payoff.
Yeah.
I also like it when I've worked with someone so long
I can predict their exact move.
And I did that once with Jack and Arwoo,
where I deliberately spelled his name wrong
on a piece of on a site.
I love that clip so much.
And then on the back, I'd written,
Well, he sees it.
Yeah, he goes, you spelled it wrong.
And I flipped it over and it says,
No, I didn't.
Because I knew he would know how fussy he is
with a spelling his name.
And I just like that you get into those boos when people are like, I know exactly. No, I didn't. Because I knew he would know how fussy he is with his family, his name.
And I just like that you get into those birds with people
that's like, I know exactly what this person would do.
That's probably my favorite algorithm.
Here's a friendship right there.
I assume you guys have that with your respective partners
that you could almost like predict their reaction
when they would say does something.
So whenever Trevor and I are getting ready for bed,
we usually will get ready for bed in the bathroom,
and then the last person will turn off the light and close the doors.
And he knows every time I'm finished up in the bathroom,
and I don't know if he's gotten ready yet, I'll ask,
you all done in here?
And so I literally was coming through the bathroom,
and I went, and he went, you're done in there?
And I was like, you knew exactly what I was saying.
Or like he was like saying yes as I was saying that.
Yes, that is cute.
It's funny.
But you guys probably have that too, I think.
Yeah, I think you spend enough time with someone, you know.
Be sure.
How they're going to move, what they're going to say,
the reactions just comes from.
Literally, it happened to me this morning
where we have two bathrooms in our house.
And I was in the bathroom. I was in the master bathroom, and I was going to the bathroom,
and I left the door open to the bathroom, and then to the bedroom as well.
You have to, I forgot, one of them.
One of them, obviously.
One of the two.
Obviously. So yeah, one of the two.
And I, so the master bedroom door was open
and then the bathroom door was open also.
And I heard him come out of the office
and I was like, he's gonna look for me.
I just know he's looking for me.
And so I was just like sitting there,
just waiting, because I was like,
I'm gonna have to shut the door.
I don't wanna shut the door right now,
because I'm just like on the toilet,
but I'm gonna have to shut the door.
And I hear him moving around
and I was like he's coming
I just know he's going to come low and behold walks right in hey, what are you doing?
I'll like get the fuck out of here. I'm like a fucking toilet. Damn it. I was like I should have just shut the door
I just knew totally I but I just knew he was gonna come out and he like is gonna look for me
That's just like what he does like when we've been on our offices for a long time
I'm sure maybe you and Trevor,
you just kind of like go look for the other person
after you've done whatever you need to do
for like a long period of time.
You're like, hey, what's up, how are you?
Yep.
And that's what I want to look at your face.
I can't even make that.
You just can't hug.
Yeah, just like.
Yeah.
Along the lines of your always open prank, Gavin,
right before we did this podcast, Blaine and Chris
were over in our office doing a video interview.
And you saw me do this. I don't know if you realized what I was doing though, Barbara.
Our office is laid out in such a way where the way that they were doing this video, there's a door right next to them.
But there's another door you can enter from the other side of the office.
So I just kept doing circles. So from the perspective of the people they were doing interview with, I just kept walking from one side to the other.
And it was like, I would run down the hall and come back in the other door and I just kept making loops behind blaming Chris.
I don't know that they, anybody noticed it, but I must have gone like five times around.
Just constantly going from the same direction.
I like to think one of the interviews was probably thinking it. They're just like, how is he doing?
And why is he panting every time? It is really funny because when they started that interview, Blaine like jokingly yelled
at John, he's like, hey, John, be quiet over there.
But one of the interviewers apparently went like, oh, they thought he was being serious,
but it's like, you know, when Blaine does, he's like, jokingly yell at someone.
And so now, the whole after the interview for like 10 minutes,
he's like, I think she thought I was curious
and it got so bad.
Oh, that's great.
I love Blaine's yell.
I think it's hilarious.
I think it's funny when people yell just in general,
publicly.
He has a great scream.
He has a fantastic scream.
Is that one TikTok?
Yeah, we did it.
I'm just like, I love it.
The New Year's Eve TikTok made, which is still like,
I think one of our best performing videos.
Fantastic.
It's great.
And I think it's solely because we have a blame cutoff
scream at the end.
It just really, and I really like,
the sound of the, was it like a plastic cut back?
Oh yeah, yeah.
And that was blame.
So like, he like made sure to knock it over on the take.
So it would do like ting.
But it was just so relatable.
It's just so exactly how we all feel.
Just like, thank you. I came up with that and edited myself.
Perfect. It's so good.
You come up with some good shit.
You're a very top-of-read it person with your boxes.
What is this?
I think it's because I spend so much time.
But back in 2013, maybe...
2012. time. But back in 2013, maybe, maybe 2012, we had these like boxes that I think paper or something
some office supplies would come in. And like some of them were open and so like the flaps were
kind of like touching each other. But the back of the box looked like evil eyes. And so the
weight was going it almost looked like the boxes were like scheming. And there was two of them.
So I took a picture and I was like, these boxes are definitely plotting something.
There they are.
Barbara!
Yes!
And I posted that and it went everywhere on Reddit.
But of course, I didn't put my screen name on it or anything.
So people were just using the image.
You've told me once before that sometimes you don't feel like you are creative.
I feel like you are extremely creative.
I think so.
Yeah.
And hilarious.
It definitely comes and goes.
It's a muscle you have to work.
I mean, yeah, there's such thing as being creatively fatigued.
Like how can you just be like pulling out bangers, let it right all the time?
Oh, I'm talking.
Well, it's just not with our, like, STF, like that's our primary content now is social
video.
And so like, it's the deal you especially having to make a lot per week,
it's like, okay, what ideas do we like?
What do we want to write about or what do we want to make?
And it could be a little fatiguing for sure.
Absolutely.
But it's also fun.
It's also so view of us working there.
So it's like, you really gotta come up with stuff.
And I feel guilty, it's like, like you said,
I've got these four podcasts I'm working on.
So it's like,
What have you contributed?
Come and up with TikTok ideas. It's like, I might have won every now and then, that I can working on. So it's like, what have you contributed? Come with TikTok ideas.
Like, I might have one every now and then that I can chip in,
but it's normally like, I've got all this other shit
I'm looking at all the time.
It's actually a really funny one you wrote
that hasn't come out yet about Murder Podcast.
Oh yeah.
Okay, I forgot about that.
It wasn't come out, okay.
And I think we actually had at least do the VO for it.
Yeah.
Yeah, because it's supposed to be someone listening to
like a Murder Podcast.
And I think like someone was talking to her and they're like, hey. You get Jessica VO for it. To do. Yeah, because it's supposed to be someone listening to a murder podcast and I think someone was
talking to her and they're like,
hey, you get Jessica to do it.
I mean, we,
Lisa's, she's better in every way.
You guys are both wonderful.
No, no, no, no.
It's okay, I'm not offended.
I filmed a video with Elise when I
was at Funhouse last week where
we were doing it.
I think I know which one it is.
Yeah, we're doing our makeup together.
Oh, no.
Oh, your test.
Well, mine, but like the official new show.
No, okay.
So yeah, we're working on potentially a new show.
There was an episode that we released many years ago.
Just out of the blue.
With Jessica and Elise, who just hanging out
doing their makeup and just talking.
Just talking to camera.
Like our dirty makeup bags.
This was not like a,
we're putting together a plethora of beautiful makeup,
just like our nasty dirty makeup bags,
this is not what it would do in my go.
And so I filmed an episode with Elise,
and I know there's some other episodes that have been filmed,
and they're trying to like figure out what the plan is for them,
like where they want to put them and all that stuff,
but it's really nice, just like, hang out and chat.
It is, and also you put up,
I think it was just an Instagram reel
or a TikTok of like your nighttime skincare routine
with your humidifier and everything.
Oh yeah, yeah.
I'm just like, I wash it a couple times.
I just like, like, washing it.
It's not a weird way.
Coming to me.
It's a very ASMR style.
Yeah, it's fascinating.
It's just so, Elise is so cute.
Cause I brought like my good makeup
to like, use for filming that.
And Elise had her like normal makeup bag. And at one point, I'm like my good makeup to like use for filming that. And Elise had her like normal makeup bag.
And at one point I was like, she's using my setting spray.
And she takes out this tiny little like,
it looks like one of those perfume samples.
And she starts spraying it on her face too.
She is doing everything I was doing without me knowing.
She would.
But it was like, it's also a setting spray.
It was like this, yeah.
Like a little travel size or something.
Yeah, she's trasho, high level.
I love it.
I love it.
You mentioned Blaine a little earlier,
and it makes me think I had such a dumb interaction
with him a little while ago, before we came out.
Most interactions are dumb with him.
We were talking about something in the office,
and then he turns around and says,
yeah, it's like that sign field episode
where they try to see who can go the longest
without learning what the Super Bowl score was.
And I was like, what?
Yeah, you know that sign field episode
where they all make a bet
to see who can go the longest without learning
who won the Super Bowl.
I was like, what?
Blaine, what are you talking about?
He's like, you know the Seinfeld episode
where they all make a bet who can go the longs
without learning to score the Super Bowl.
He's like, there's no Seinfeld episode like that.
He's like, you're fucking with me.
He's like, you're fucking with me.
I'm gonna look it up right now.
I'm gonna prove you wrong.
I was like, okay.
He looked it up.
Okay, yeah, I must be thinking of a different show.
What's the hell, it's like an alternate universe?
I don't know, I was like,
that doesn't even sound like a Seinfeld episode to me.
The most I've ever just came into play right there.
Business makes me want to gaslight blame more.
It's one of my favorite things.
I've heard that so far.
Anytime he insists that something exists, we should all just be like,
that's great.
It's in there how I met your mother where he's got goggles on,
he's trying to pick up food without seeing.
No, that's another show.
I know that's another show.
What do you mean?
She was trying. She was trying. She was trying to cast me. Did I just meet it with just picking all the things? That's another show. I know that's another what do you mean?
Did I immediately Taking all the
The main guy or Barney or or whatever
Main got I didn't worry what she that, yeah, and then he's got like,
they're saying, sorry.
And they're saying, that's weird.
Oh, is that how I met?
Yes, so they, yeah.
But I don't think they're doing a bet.
I think they're just trying not to,
they're trying to all like watch it together
independently without finding out,
you watch that show, I never even watched it.
I watched that show, but it was a long time ago.
Like I don't remember the specific episodes.
The only like episodes I remember are Simpsons and Friends because I watched the series so
many times over and over again. With how I met your mother, I think I watched
that series one time through. I watched Meg watch it all the way through. You've
already seen it and I'd like dip it in and out. I remember not having a problem
with the end, which I know a lot of people did.
Really having an issue with the end.
Someone wrote that Blaine has really great
Gasclave ability.
Gasclave ability.
It's because he'll be like,
nah man, like.
It's because he's unsure of himself,
and you can like exploit that.
He's so cute, yeah.
I've explained that, let's explain our problem. For fun, I've been. Exploite that. Let's explain.
For fun. I've been rewatching The Simpsons again. And for some reason this time I've been rewatching it with the subtitles on.
I've been watching everything the subtitles, which is a big thing right now.
I watch lots of things. I really help. What's a big thing right now?
What's a big thing because like somebody I, sorry to catch you up. No, no, no somebody had mentioned about how like the cinema is different these days ever since
post COVID and now everybody's watching things
with subtitles on because they can't focus,
they can't focus on, they're usually like on their phone
at some point, so it's easier to like look up
and sometimes you can't hear as well because they're talking
about how sound design isn't the best anymore.
Sound mix is awful now.
Yeah, exactly, there have been times where I'm like,
they are whispering and I cannot hear it, I have to rewind it and I still can't, I'm just like I'm putting subtitles on and I do watch. So this is awful now. Yeah, exactly. There have been times where I'm like, they are whispering and I cannot hear it.
I have to rewind it and I still can't hear it.
I'm just like, I'm putting subtitles on it.
And I do watch most of everything with subtitles now.
I watch lots of it.
That's one of the reasons I'm rewatching the Simpsons with subtitles.
Yeah.
Oh my, like, it's on by default now.
I wish it wasn't always on there.
I wish there was a button on a remote that just said like, huh?
And it skips back 15 seconds.
I replace it with subtitles and they go off.
I think if you have more annoying, I think they go off. I think if you have more annoying
and just always having them on.
Why is that more annoying?
I think if you have an Apple TV
and you ask Siri, what did they say?
It will rewind and turn subtitles on, just like you're described.
I think so.
Siri has built in her.
I believe so.
That's right. I didn't know that. At least the Amazon services, Gila Fire TV,
but I believe Siri does it as well.
But I was rewatching the symptoms
and I tweeted about this and it got very little traction.
This is a tweet for me.
This wasn't for you.
This was for me.
But there was an episode where the dialogue
that was delivered was different than the subtitle.
Like, differently phrased, like, totally different. Yeah, like it's it's it's it's extra with for animation
We use you think that like they go through a process and
What was yeah, it's the episode where
Barton Lisa and Maggie are taken and put into foster care in the flander state care of them
Uh-huh if you remember early in the episode they have Lice and Bart was playing with that monkey
that Millhouse had.
And the line, as it was originally delivered
when the episode first aired was,
we found this monkey in a basket we bought at Pier One.
But Pier One complained, and so subsequently in reruns
and on the DVD, the line is,
we found this monkey in a basket we bought at Trader Peats.
But since Pier 1 no longer exists, if you watch it streaming on Disney Plus now, they reverted the line back. The audio says we found this monkey in a basket, we bought it Pier 1,
but the subtitles say we found this monkey in a basket we bought at Trader Peats.
Whoa. Damn, that's so much effort to go back and unshaken.
Right. I know. Why did they just keep it as is?
No, I like that they did that, because they had to like,
they're like, that's what I think you do.
That's what I'm thinking.
Well, this is what I want.
That's my big complaint with the way the Simpsons is shown
on television nowadays.
Yeah.
It's impossible to watch it the way it aired.
If you're watching on television, it's all 16 by nine now,
and jokes are cut to fit more commercials
into the runtime.
I know it's that too.
So it's like, I'm glad that they're making the effort
to get it as close to, if not the original,
air episode that you saw.
You think you could watch it on Disney Plus,
the original.
Disney Plus, you can talk about it before.
But I'm saying, like, if you watch it on TV,
or any other platform, I think, it's all like 16 by 9.
But even then, on Disney Plus,
you have to go out of your way to enable the fourth,
the city. It's not a default.
Wait, when you say you're watching it on TV, what do you mean by that?
Like on K.
I'm an old man.
I still have K.
Okay, that's what I was asking.
Okay.
Sometimes Gus sits down in front of the TV and just like see what's all the vision.
I look to see what's all the vision.
How do you guys say TV?
TV?
Tally.
Because like, do you, and then see it like TV or TV?
This is the same chocolate milk.
On TV. TV. TV like TV or TV. This is the same chocolate milk. On TV.
TV.
TV.
TV.
TV.
Fuck.
What?
What?
I can't.
I can't.
TV.
TV.
What's on TV tonight?
What's on TV?
I feel like I'm saying them equally.
I think so.
I think TV.
I've found there's a number of words and phrases
that I say weirdly.
Is because you're Canadian?
I don't know if it's maybe a Canadian accent thing
or just like a wrong word?
Or just like the way I said things.
So yeah, yeah.
But like mountain dew.
Mountain dew.
Mm, the mountain the way you say mountain dew.
Because I, I don't say the mountain.
Yeah, you, yeah, mountain dew.
Mountain dew.
Mountain dew. Mountain dew. Mountain dew. Mountain dew. Mountain dew.
Mountain dew.
Mountain dew.
Mountain dew.
Mountain dew.
Is it raining?
It sounds like it's raining pretty hard outside.
I don't think it's raining like six weeks.
It doesn't rain in forever.
And yesterday was the last hundred degree day
for like a week and a half.
Thank God.
And just in time for our two hours.
We lowered the temperature for you for our TX.
Although it might be nice and human now.
I heard the rain and it immediately,
my brain immediately went into like cozy mode.
And I'm like, oh, you can almost hear it.
Like, was you watching a movie?
You're gonna build a fire?
And yeah, I saw a question come up.
I know we've like talked about certain hypotheticals
on the podcast a lot like, what's the right size spoon
or what's the regular spoon in the lasagna and all that stuff.
I saw another one that I wanted to post to you guys.
Oh God. Oh, God.
So, Christ, do you think there are more eyes or legs in the world?
Oh, we're talking just humans or we're talking?
No, just all eyes and legs.
So, there's bugs, there's fish.
Oh, easily legs.
There's fish.
Legs.
Because, yeah, easily legs.
But they're so...
Think about how many legs. bug some bugs have so many legs
More legs than a school of fish
Do they yeah, they're like millipedes yeah, so many legs on
I don't know so all those bugs also have two eyes even caterpillars. Yeah, but even like tiny shit like the little what a best and
Like I mean like inside of account for it like such a large
Tots of a bio massing general on earth. Yeah, and they only have two eyes and six legs, right? So you're you're like super positive
I'm in the count lady and
It's in the world and look up how many fish two, okay? There's one quadrillion ants in the world
And that's quite a lot. That's such a nice
round number one, followed by 15 zeros, or to put it another way, a million billion. So multiply
that by six. There are six million billion ant legs in the world. Million billion. How many fish
are in the world? Yeah, a lot of people say in legs. We can't be counted compound eyes. That's
just an eye, surely. Like a fly's eye. That's two eyes, right? With a lot of people say in legs. We can't be counted compound eyes. That's just an eye, surely.
Like a fly's eye?
Has two eyes, right?
With a bunch of eyes in it.
The best estimate for fish is 3.5 trillion,
which is an order of less than quadrillion.
Okay, this quadrillion,
but Julian, but Julian,
because Julian's never done a huge thing.
But you guys have also heard,
I think we've talked about in the podcast briefly,
but if there's more wheels or doors in the world. Yeah, more wheels or doors.
More wheels. Have you not heard this? Oh God, no, it must be doors. I thought wheels at first.
Because cars have doors and wheels but buildings. Everyone thinks of us cars immediately. But I mean vehicles have both, but buildings have just one.
But then you think about like both doors.
What about open doors?
All these windows and all these wheels.
Oh, we counting doors.
Those are all wheels.
Look at all the wheels everywhere.
And there's only one door for this.
Anytime there's like something where it's like a crank,
it has like a wheel thing.
Airplanes have wheels and doors.
Yes.
Is a door.
Is a hole a door?
Does it have?
No, I would say it's something that could open and close.
So like it's a door frame without an answer door.
No, it has to open and close.
That's what a door is, Gavin, has open close.
But if you go into a bedroom through the, but it didn't have a, that's not a door.
It's a door.
It's still one-in-a-yeah.
It's an entry.
Entry, yeah.
Not a door.
But then also like if, and you're in a kitchen, you can work in your kitchen, you have cabinet doors. That's an entry. Yeah. Not a door. But then also like if you're an kitchen.
You're under this, you can work.
In your kitchen you have cabinet doors.
That's a door.
Yeah.
That's true.
There's cabinet doors.
There's doors everywhere.
What came first, the wheel or the door?
Probably the door.
The door.
I would say the door.
Yes, the door.
But I don't know if it was called a door.
Like you're thinking about like ancient civilizations whenever they before the wheel. Is it putting up something to close off a shelter?
Yeah. It's a rug hanging a door. It's a bunch of beads. Adore. Doors were invented in 3000 BC.
Wheels were invented in the fourth millennium BC. So I don't know. I don't know. I don't know what those mean. Is it about the same? I'm like, oh!
What did Nina? Crazy. What the difference of time that is like 3000 BC and the fourth millennial.
So the wheel was 33, sometimes between 33,000 and 4500 BC.
The door was 3000 BC.
But isn't, wait, I have a question about the BC thing.
Wait, you changed it.
Isn't it?
Can I see it wrong, go?
Isn't, doesn't time go like,
yeah, 4000 BC, BC be further than 3000 BC?
Further back.
Yeah.
Yeah, some saying the wheel might have been first.
Say the numbers again.
Yeah. The wheel was between 33,300 and 4,500 BC.
Okay.
The door was approximately 3,000 BC.
Okay, so then put it potentially the wheel.
The wheel.
What idiots invented a wheel before a door?
That's super weird.
I wouldn't have thought that though.
We got all these holes in our house.
We don't know how to fill them,
but we can put stuff on a wheel.
Yeah. It's like a big doggy be like fill them, but we can put stuff on a wheel. Yeah.
So I did it for you to argue me like, right,
we're trying to reinvent the door here.
Let's get back to the thing.
I mean, they didn't call the door a door.
Like maybe a function does a door,
but they didn't really, yeah, constitute it as something.
I don't know.
You just took out the word though.
I mean, that could apply to the wheel.
Door.
Could have been the roundy block.
Door.
Back in cavemen days, where they would just go so they were just like, noises and pointing. That's what I remember that I still do the same thing. Yeah
So in a 3000 BC wooden doors were used in Europe and in 2000 BC
Stone doors became used in Asia
Stone door that's asking for trouble
That's how Jesus Christ was
2000 years after they were invented was that door like a just a big rock
Well is a bull and a hole a door what did you say your accent confused me?
Is a fall in a hole
Honestly, I thought I was the only one that was like is a bullet
What did he say? It's rolling a big bowl in front of a big hole.
The same as a close.
You're making it worse, you're doing that on purpose.
No, I'm not, what do you mean?
It's way too hard.
Rolling a bowl in front of a bowl.
A bowl!
A bowl, you throw a bowl!
A bowl!
A bowl!
A bowl!
Are you gonna say that?
I'm not saying cool, I'm saying cool.
Okay, so a bowl, still remember that one.
A ball in a hole is in a door.
A ball.
A ball.
I've worked it 10 years.
I know.
I had no problem most of the time.
Let me say how it spelled.
A ball in front of a door.
Yeah, that's what I said.
A ball. A ball in front of a door. There you go. Yeah, that's what I said. Yeah, a ball. Yep.
A ball in front of a hole.
What?
You said it with a funny look, but I can't understand.
What?
What's the question?
What?
You asked the question.
Yeah, you tell us that question.
A ball in a hole is it a door?
I think it could be.
Yes.
I'm going to say yes.
So if you had a hole in the, like a little divot in the ground and there was a ball
there blocking an entryway.
Like what if you lived in an underground cave and you had to get in the ladder a little divot in the ground and there was a ball there blocking an entryway. Like what if you lived in underground cave and you had to get in the ladder and climb down and you rolled a ball over the entry?
I would consider that. Yeah. Yeah.
It feels very cumbersome and unnecessary.
So a door, a door don't need an inch.
A door don't need an inch.
You're making a huge noise.
Can you speak more British than you would like to speak?
Yeah, I already have to.
Okay, we'll try to speak every time.
What?
We'll put more of a British accent on right now.
Pretend you're with your chums.
What?
What?
For Gavin's birthday, I specifically named myself.
Was it Chum?
Chuff or something?
Chuff, that was it.
So I wanted to make him feel more at home.
And ladies to tag.
That's very sweet.
Chum.
Chum, that was fun.
We should go play ladies to tag.
So that's what you call your friends?
That's your friends, Chums.
Chums.
If you chummy with someone, it's like your friendly with them.
Yeah, but you did Chuff. I did Chuff. Which is like, I'm with someone, it's like you're friendly with them. Yeah, but you did chuff.
I did chuff.
Which is like, I'm chuff, it's like I'm happy, or you take it up the chuff.
Okay, I did not know that one.
I knew the first one, not the second one.
Ready.
And you were a small wife.
I was a small wife, because Eric's a small wife picked birthday boy.
Birthday boy.
Yeah.
In chat, male bulgea asks,
a manhole cover is a door to the underground.
Whoa.
So now we get into like, is a hatch a door?
I think a hatch is a door.
Yeah.
But then like, I'm sure other things
could be counted as wheels.
Well a hatch is the shape of a wheel.
Is a door a wheel? Woo! A door. Is that the shape of a wheel. Is a, is a, a door a wheel?
A door, some doors might be a door wheel.
It can't be a door.
Can a wheel be a door?
Can a wheel be a door?
Yes, yeah.
But can a well door be a wheel?
Yes.
Can a door be a wheel?
Yeah.
If a wheel could be a door, a door could be a wheel.
Yeah.
Could legs be eyes?
Or could eyes be legs?
You really have to think it for a second. Wait a minute.
I just think of that. I was like, wait a minute.
I did.
I just love those thought provoking. Same here.
They're always fun. Same here.
And I love the debates that happen.
Yes. But you guys are definitely right. There's more legs.
There's got to be.
Yeah.
I mean, we got three weeks at spoons back in the day.
We did.
There are endless on you. The only creature you have at spoons back in the day. We did. There are.
In lasagna.
The only creature you have helping you out in the eye debate
is spiders, but even they are net even legs and eyes.
They do, yeah.
They do look up how many fish there are.
Because if you heard of this.
Yeah, 3.5 trillion.
3.5 trillion?
Yeah.
Oh, that's way less than.
Did you do that thing again, where you didn't listen?
Yeah.
I did.
I think it's because I thought you said there was three
point something trillion of something else.
I didn't really.
No, three point five trillion fish, which is like way less
than the quadrillion.
Which is weird, because I wasn't even on my phone this time.
I just, I loved it.
Did you do that thing where you just didn't listen?
It's just like I said, when I talk about the quadrillion,
it's like it's just a number that's incomprehensible.
Yeah.
Because it's like so big.
It's like, you hear it, you're like, I have no frame of reference.
Like that's not going to stick.
Have you heard of this thing that exists in the ocean?
It's like a wall of fish that is so incredibly dense.
And it like supposedly makes up 90% of the actual fish
population in this one.
Is there a door in it?
There is no door in it.
Can you go through it?
No, it's like, it's just packed.
Insanely dense.
And they're not up against anything.
It's just in the middle of the water.
And they're all together.
A block of fish.
I, I forget what it's called, but I did hear about it.
And it has the Mesopillagic Zone.
Mesopillagic Zone.
Is it just, no, a bunch of fish just swam together
and then just didn't know the way out?
They're just all together.
I don't know why, but I forget what it's called.
Maybe someone in chat might.
I told you what it was.
Meso-pillagic zone.
You've seen very unsure of yourself.
I don't know how to pronounce it.
Meso-pillagic zone?
Bob, why wouldn't you just listen to that?
It's because it doesn't sound like the thing I heard.
So maybe I thought it was wrong.
Did you ever see that footage of all the fish laying eggs
on the same thing?
You know, they're like jizzing each other to death with eggs?
No, no Gavin.
Jizzing each other to death?
Yeah, that's like, why did you watch it?
I was like, nature show.
But it was like, it's, I think it was sort of driftwood
and they're like laying eggs into it
and on the male fish like shoot a bunch of jizz all into the eggs
and they're just trying to fertilize
and then fish are getting in there to jizz and they get jizzed on and they get pasted a bunch of jizz all into the eggs and just try to fertilize and then fish are getting in there
to jizz and they get jizzed on and they get pasted in
as big jizz balls.
Hell yeah.
Hell yeah, they just want a fuck.
That's a different wall of fish.
Yeah.
And I don't think it's the mess of po.
That's a bunch of sea men.
Yeah.
Always so good.
I can't read about this.
Try and find the fish stuff.
Try and find the fish stuff.
Just some fish stuff.
Try and find the fish jizzball.
I know I don't want to look at that.
Why not?
Fish jizzball.
I'm good.
I, uh.
A wall of fish.
Okay.
A wall ball bar where it looks that up.
I watched a video the other day.
You know, there's that guy who tries to fuck with scammers,
who call it pretending to be like, Tex-Apport and...
I love that stuff. Any time I get a call from a scammer, I love fucking with them.
Well this guy, you know, he sets up like dummy computers for them to connect to and like
leads them on forever. He set up a Windows 3.1 computer for them to connect to.
Perfect.
And then just like kept them on the phone for hours to the point where it's like, they don't
know what they're looking at. It's like this old-ass shit and yet like this old granny sounding voice. It's like yeah about this computer 28 years ago
It's great. You're talking some some kit bug. Yeah, it's good. Well, good. So good. Do you find your
Anyway, go watch it. Yeah, it's a
Basically, there's a wall of fish and it's more of a floor, but it's
The point is it's in the ocean and it's insanely dense.
What's it called?
It's, I don't think there's an actual name to it.
But apparently, it's so dense that scientists
didn't even originally realize it was fish.
That's how this is called.
This is gongers.
It's also, it's suspicious because it's a wall-flash,
ceiling-slash floor, depending on how it shaped,
but also, it's constantly in motion because it's fish.
Moving around.
Is this another like weird multiverse or something's a miss?
It also apparently warps sonar, meaning that it's undetectable to any sound navigation
technology.
Yeah, this is like some weird shit going on.
That's what?
Yeah, meso-pell-agic zone.
I don't know, you don't sound very confident.
I know.
It's in the middle of the ocean.
Yeah, that's just crazy to me.
Is that video of it?
I loved it.
I don't think there is.
From what I can tell, it seems to me,
and I haven't watched the TikToks.
I don't know what they talk about.
But it seems like it's a zone of the ocean that's like the optimal density and sunlight
penetration, or it's just like that's just where the bulk of all fish live.
It's from what I gathered from my 15 second perusal of a lot of the top.
So you're saying that there's sunlight there or there's no sunlight there?
There is sunlight there, there's no sunlight there is sunlight, but very little and it's just like the zone of the ocean where
Just a fuck ton of fish live. Okay, and a lot of semen too probably
I'll find the video and I'll send it to you because it's actually quite interesting
I want to see that too, but also like man if you because there's like that fear that people have of like yep the ocean
And I have that, you know, because there's like that fear that people have of like yep the ocean and I have that
Yeah, just totally understandable. I wonder if hearing about that would like creep someone out
I think it would I don't want to visit that fish
Sounds like it could be more bid. Oh
Sounds pretty unless and maybe if they're like attacking people or like if you got close to it
They'd like snatch you up and like you never return.
I need just a pot of the wool.
Yeah, exactly.
That's how you just get absorbed into the fish wool.
Then you become fish too.
Whoa.
Circle alive.
Fish off red.
I'm just gonna make it up and just spat a bunch of nonsense
on the podcast and tell everyone this is real.
No, no, that podcast is taken.
Okay, yeah, this coming up.
Yeah, it's the RT podcast is taken. Okay. Yeah, that's our job. I started
The new season of Westworld started last night. I don't know if anybody else watches it
No, I have thoughts on it. I rewatched season three
over the last week getting ready for the new season and
First episode of season four came out and I was like, I don't, what?
It's like it just introduces a lot of questions and leaves a lot of things very open and well season three
already ended like on a super big wide open like what can go what can happen from here? Yeah,
and then season four picks up you like, what about all the stuff that just happened? Oh, weird. They do
it's not, I, they dress it immediately
in the new episode, but it's like,
they do a time skip where time has passed.
And you're like, oh, okay, like everyone's just cool with this.
Okay, I thought these people were dead,
but they're not okay.
It's always somewhat disappointing when that happens.
I mean, to be fair, that show had massive time skips
in the first season, they were just hidden.
Right.
But this one, they're very clearly like,
this much time has passed. Oh, why are you still worried about that?
That was so many years ago.
It's very clear.
Yeah, sweeping that under the rug.
Yeah, but I really like that show.
Apparently Jessica doesn't like it.
Well, did you like season two?
Season two is probably the weakest of the three I thought.
That's where I fell off.
I loved season one, loved it. Season, speaking of like time skips three I thought. That's where I fell off. I love season one.
Loved it.
Season, speaking of like time skips,
I think the big problem with season two was it was told
so disjointedly from a timeline perspective.
100%.
That it was too confusing for too long.
Yeah.
I think watching it week to week when it came out
was probably not the best experience at the time.
Yeah.
I think now that it's all out and you can easily binge through it and watch it all much better
to digest that.
I'm gonna go back to it.
Like watching it, we could, you're like,
what the fuck is going on?
Yeah.
And it wasn't telling you.
It just kept skipping in time.
Early, later, in the middle,
you're like, I have no idea the sun gave me sin.
Which, that's what the first time that's ever happened
in film and TV, but the way they did it
just didn't keep the audience
of course.
They gave you, you knew you had an unreliable narrator
to begin with in season two.
And then on top of that, they added this timeline
that didn't make sense.
So it was just like confusing on top of confusing
that didn't, it was very hard to gel it together.
I still liked season two and I thought it was good,
but I could see why it's very easy to gel it together. I still liked season two, and I thought it was good, but I could see why.
It's very easy to fall off at that point.
But I haven't watched it since season two is out,
and there's no way I could just start season three.
I don't wanna watch the whole thing again, I think.
No, I think you'd be okay.
Honestly, season three is so different
that you might be able to watch a recap
of season one and two and be okay.
Yeah, I think you go watch a recap,
maybe watch the last episode of season two,
and you'd be fine jumping into season three.
You say also that for Stranger Things, are you guys rewatching all the seasons before you do season four?
Or like, yeah, that's what we did.
It's so good. I love.
Stranger Things.
It's a good rewatch.
Yeah, we watched every episode and then watched.
They lost me in season two.
Really? Okay, I get that.
When 11 went to hang out with the,
which she did like her runaway thing
and went to hang out with other kids,
that's why I saw the worst episode.
It is.
Yeah, no, that's awful.
I think I turned it off and I'm like,
No.
That was strange with things.
Yeah, but then in comparison to this newest season,
season four, which is just phenomenal.
It is.
Well, they're changing a lot of,
they're like, I feel like they're retconning all this stuff.
You think so?
You probably can't get into it because of spoilers.
Well, I just feel like the whole point
of that stupid episode where she finds the other one,
is that they all have different abilities.
Because the other one can make people see shit
and it's not real.
But then in this season, everyone's got the same power.
Everyone's got like the...
So you wanted her...
Telekinesis sort of...
11 to just be the only one that had.
Or just like, her...
I just figured it would be a program for like,
like why does one person have a different ability?
That's very true.
Interesting.
And also, I will say the tight,
this like stuck in time bit, I think is really cool idea.
Yeah, I do.
Not giving away.
I am so excited for the next part that releases on Friday.
I know.
I can't wait.
I can't wait.
Me and Trevor were like, oh, me and we got, well, we're excited about RTX obviously, but
I was like, we have to find time to watch.
This is the point.
So, hey, RT podcast panel, letushen's pop-on stranger things.
I'll do a group watch.
Yeah. Is it just one episode or like one long hour and a half?
I don't know about.
I do know that the finale is supposed to be like two or two and a half hours long.
Oh yeah, I love it.
But I don't know if there's just like an episode left or if there's a few.
One thing that frustrates me about the show and I'm assuming they just have to do it
just for logistical reasons is that they always separate the cost yeah into
Sometimes some dog shit story line. Yeah, they all have their ABC storylines
Yeah, so the point where like actors will be a part and not work together for an entire season
I must be shit. I know I thought the same thing. I was like man
It's like you're coming back for season four and everyone's excited to be together And like I don't see them anytime on set. Yeah, I don't have a single scene together
It's like they probably never even hung out on set that happened with a blood fest
I was so excited when I heard that Tate Donovan was gonna be it because like I watched the OC and also hercules huge fan
But we were in zero scenes together, so I never actually got to like yeah, beat him
Yeah, I think I only met him like,
there was like a wrap thing that we did,
or like a cast photo or something like that.
But I was like, damn.
Do you know the story of like,
so I was a reporter in that scene.
Yeah.
We had a real news reporter,
this was right before Hurricane Harvey came.
Oh God.
Oh yeah.
And we had a reporter that was like an actual reporter slated for the role, and then Hurricane Harvey came. Oh, God. Oh, yeah. And we had a reporter that was like an actual reporter
slated for the role.
And then Hurricane Harvey hit and she got called
to cover because it was really awful, obviously.
And so that happened like the night before.
And I was having a panic attack.
I had a panic attack Thursday due to just,
you know, everything's blood-fessing.
And it hadn't gone away.
I was just in a state of just like not chilling at all,
just like palpitations constantly.
And so I got a call from the producer
that I before saying like,
hey, the lady she had to go cover something,
can you be the reporter tomorrow?
And I was like, yes.
So the entire time in that scene,
my heart is pounding.
And I don't remember any of my,
yeah, it was miraculous. And so we're in the trailer with Tay and he's like, you want to go
over lines and like, yes, people together, pull it together. And I like, I was, it was terrifying.
He was very sweet. But like, you were terrified. You would never appreciate that. But like, that was a,
because I'm like, wow, the first time I can like meet
with like an actor like Tay and I'm like,
it complete freaking mess.
Yeah.
I think, I don't know.
I'm tied between my favorite roles in that movie
being Gus and Gavin's.
Mm-hmm.
Wait, Gus who got cut from the movie.
Gus and the movie and then you,
and Gus, that's what you go.
I'm Kevin who got cut. In the movie, in the movie. got that's what you got Kevin who got in the movie
in the movie
Yeah, dude your death that movie is so good. Yeah, I remember one of my favorite memories of all time
People always ask like what's your favorite memory from RTX or like favorite moment for RTX? I think it was
in 2018 or
2019
When we premiered blood fest at RTX and like got to watch it with the audience and stuff like that.
And because it's a Ruchu T- thought-ins
and there's so many Ruchu T-people
and Ruchu T-references in that movie,
like hearing them react, like Gavin's death scene,
the crowd fucking exploded.
It was really funny, like doing my, like, one line
or something and then cut,
and then I go around to the fan
sim and then they replace me with the same clothing.
And I'm just there filming my own death.
It's like, all right, it's the footage.
But that's it.
It was really great.
That was fun.
Yeah, I think Jeff is in that too.
Yeah, Elise has a little, she plays like a, oh, yeah, a little vlogger.
Yeah, like a little vlogger cute girl.
Just like, it's great.
And then dies.
Yeah.
What a fun time.
It was, it was a great time.
I was stressful, but it was a, it was so much fun.
It's a long, how long ago was it?
Well, I know we filmed it in 2017.
Yeah, like five years now.
Wow.
I'm at the point where I can't, I feel like the first three years I lived here, I was able to be like, that wasn't that year,
that was in the end.
At some point, I'm just like, between 2015 and 2019,
I don't know what happened.
As you get older, it's just like it all.
And then the pandemic doesn't count, nobody knows.
That's the one long year.
No, that's like a blur.
It was, yeah.
Well, we were just trying to remember
when we were filming Dead Little Roosters.
And we were like, which one?
On October.
Oh, yeah. When just in our office before. Yeah, Dead Little Roosters. And we were like, which one? It's tober.
Oh yeah.
When just in our office before.
Yeah, Dead Little Roosters, I was like, 12 or 11.
There's so many, yeah, you're right.
And we were like, we went back and forth
for the longest time.
I was like, no, it was 2020.
On October 2020, we filmed Dead Little Roosters.
And I was telling Jessica that she was the first person
I hugged since the pandemic had started.
Other than Trevor.
We weren't supposed to hug.
Yeah.
Everybody was like, I'm just happy to see you. They're like, you know, stay 16 apart from started other than Trevor. We weren't supposed to hug. We were like, I'm just gonna leave the hug.
They're like, you know, stay six feet apart
from each other when possible and like.
But it's hard when you're like,
I haven't seen this person.
Like, I love them.
I want to touch you.
I want to hug you.
Yeah.
And that's the truth.
Or as your friend would say,
I need to see them make it.
Yes.
Everybody should be able to see them make it.
How do you know that's what I think every time I see Jess.
Yeah, anytime.
Just please take a look.
I must.
Something I've been doing a lot recently is,
I watch Bridgerton a lot of Bridgerton.
And I'll just randomly in the most British,
like old lady accent, just,
I'm a Bridgerton in!
I'm just constantly around the house.
I'm like, I'm a Bridgerton out.
And the most, yeah, later I'm a Bridgerton.
Make watches of Bridgerton, right? Do I? I think she does. I think she had mentioned that she does. And the most, yeah, later I'm gonna go for a short hour. Make watches a bit, pretty chin right?
Do I know?
I think she does.
I think she had mentioned that she does.
I assume she was watching.
She might plow through it very quickly.
Yeah, I did too.
I, yeah, I did too as well.
Just both seasons.
But you like the first one better because
the first one I thought says the two is the first one.
The first one is like, has more sex scenes?
It does, it does. The second one has like has more sex scenes? It does.
It does.
The second one has more of that anticipation and like teasing.
Blue balls in a good way.
Yeah.
Which is a charm.
I prefer.
Yes, yeah.
A hundred percent.
But also, I forget what the actor's name is in the first season.
The Duke.
I hope he plays the Duke for how does he do?
He's just a very good looking guy. He is a very, yeah. The Duke, the guy who plays the Duke for how did they do? He's just very good looking guy.
He is a very, yeah.
And so I don't know then.
He's also, I mean, hey, go look a man, Tate Donovan.
That's a Gavin.
I can't lie.
Oh, uh, Reggie, you're John Page?
Yes.
That's it.
Yeah.
Yes.
Mm-hmm.
Which great.
But season two, Jonathan Bailey, also, he was great.
Yep. It's very good
enjoyable Anyway, sorry about that no, that's all good
I don't want to get your yum enjoy what you enjoy sure do
Yeah, I haven't seen it. I don't know if it's a show for you. Yeah, I don't know if it is
It might be I mean yeah, it's no rr
Listen, are we talking about rr again? Like a walrus. I don't know if it is. I mean, I mean, yeah, it's no R-R-R. Listen, are we talking about R-R-R again? R-R-R-R-R-R. Like a walrus. I don't know. Anyway. Is that walrus?
Is it this? Is it a walrus? It's like a seal? No, not a seal. I think it was the most expensive
movie made in India. $72 million. Wow. Yeah, it's a lot of money. Wow. They couldn't
use real animals. When it was actually made? They started, I think they started making it $1,000,000. Whoa. Yeah, it's a lot of money. It's a lot of money. Wow.
They couldn't use real animals.
When it was actually made?
They started making it in 2018, but they had production delays and the pandemic and it just
came out a couple months ago.
Gotcha.
Gotcha.
It was a long time coming, totally worth it.
Don't watch the trailers.
Is the movie with the most budget?
Was it like, still, no, not Titanic,
which is a giant-
Oh yeah, Avatar.
Avatar, is that the one?
I think so.
Still, it's still number one.
I thought one of them beat it.
I know that.
Oh, maybe like-
Oh, maybe like-
Oh, maybe like-
Oh, maybe like-
I thought Battle Angel Alita had a pretty high budget.
I think maybe the last Avengers movie might have.
Oh.
But I think that was box office.
Or was it still budget?
Budget.
Let me look.
Look at the list of most expensive movies.
Oh, it was Avatar on this list.
Is this, is this, is this,
most expensive to make?
Yeah, this might be,
this within Flation.
It's, yeah, some kind of figure out.
So,
I'll have to do the effects in. So this is not a county for inflation. It's, yeah, I'm trying to figure out. So, uh, do you have to affect some, hmm, so this is not a
California for inflation.
It looks like the most expensive movie is act was actually
parts of the Caribbean on stranger tides.
Really?
Which one was that?
Wait, no.
When, which, when do those movies get shit?
I remember the liking the first two. Yeah. Oh, I, yeah movies get shit? I remember liking the first two.
Yeah. Oh, I...
Yeah, I honestly don't remember any of the movies
besides the first two. Same.
I remember the...
It's been a while since I watched the first one,
probably like 15 years or something.
I remember being a... No, yeah.
Yeah, yeah. That movie's pretty...
It's a great movie, yeah.
That pick.
It's a banger. Yeah.
Honestly, I remember, I talk about this, I think, every time
parts of the Caribbean comes up, but that first movie is like,
when I watched it, I was like, that movie had everything.
Action, drama, romance, like comedy.
It just like is the perfect movie.
It's a good movie.
A-a-a-justed for inflation, it's still the most expensive movie.
Wait, Pirates is?
What made it so expensive? What number was that?
I don't, I think it might have been a back-to-back.
That's quite the gamble. I feel like I'd never even heard of Pirates
the Caribbean before they made that.
The second one is Age of Ultron, and the third one is Pirates of the Caribbean at Worlds End.
Wow.
Age of Ultron. Why was that so much?
Maybe the Ultron VFX budget.
For the like specifically Ultron.
Just Ultron.
Yeah, just himself.
Huh.
And then I guess it has.
No, I'm not.
No, okay.
I can't remember if you watch them, but I'm not like obsessed with them.
Oh, I love them.
So what about box office then?
I think that's still like.
No.
Also sorry, Gab, I think I interrupt you.
Who are you guys using?
I don't remember.
Oh, my bad.
It was probably worthless.
Probably.
Yeah.
I see when you say box office, you mean like US box office.
Or no, or global, whatever.
Okay.
I think I'm with the window is on there as like massive.
I think that's adjusted for inflation.
It's always going to be like number one.
But isn't that the answer then?
Yeah, I was looking for the biggest number.
There's so many other ways to look this up.
Whatever is the most basic, straight forward one way?
So the one I can find here on box office mojo,
the Mojah lists avatar as number one at 2.8
billion dollars
And then endgame is number two like 2.797 billion
I remember there was like some sort of like trying to figure out if endgame was actually going to top
They're like avatar neck and neck. I'm like right next to each other. Yeah, okay. It's like a rounding error
Yeah, difference. It's like a rounding error. Yeah. Uh, difference between them. Totally.
I think James Cameron wins because number three is Titanic. Yeah.
Oh, my god. I know that. I mean, top gun Maverick is doing really well.
I can't imagine. Did I already say this on the other podcast? I can't imagine
having that movie shot and just sitting on it for three years, waiting for people to go to go and see it.
Just like having all of that potential money,
yeah, I think when you just come out,
their release date was like May 2019,
but they ran long and shooting,
so like we're gonna push to 2020,
then COVID, yeah, this point is like almost four years.
This is getting pushing and pushing it.
I always feel that way, like at a much, much smaller scale,
when I know I've like filmed a good video
But I know it won't come out for months and I'm just like we have like that one such a good video
From squadron force that we it has not come out yet
But we're gonna be showing it at the panel at our tx. Yeah, we purposely held it for our tx
And I can't wait to watch that video with an audience and have them watch it for the first time.
It's like three minutes long.
It's three minutes, so it's pretty short,
but it feels like a very like Achieve Mahuner kind of video.
Like in a, how you guys just like,
sometimes don't have any regard for like,
authority.
Authority or like the office.
How day.
Yeah, there's been a chaos there, but it's a great thing.
I love that.
I can't wait to see that.
I've been reached the status of angry email from John Mace.
Oh, on our left.
Well, that video hasn't, like no one has seen it yet.
Once it comes out, yeah.
Because we, I think, hid the evidence of what we did.
I think at least they hid it.
Yeah.
You should be proud of your work.
Well, let's, uh,
let's print those emails and frame them. Yeah. Oh, we will. Let's wrap this it. Yeah. You should be proud of your work. Well, let's, uh, I should print nice emails and frame them.
Yeah. Oh, we will.
Oh, no, let's wrap this up.
Bye.
Thanks for watching, everybody.
I'll see you guys next time.
I'll see you guys next time.
