Welcome to the Receive Podcast. This week brought you by Blue Apron, Casper, and Movement. I'm Gus.
I'm Gavin.
I'm Ellie.
I'm Bernie!
And I'm Gus. Bernie's a little late. He was a...
...dood something.
I saw Ellie's eye makeup and I was inspired by Ellie's eye makeup.
So I had to get the same eye makeup.
I feel like it would have been a better reveal
if you would in the sea.
What's that?
What?
You guys hadn't seen it.
How'd you seen it?
It was still a real deal.
Because it's revealed to you as well.
Oh, my reaction was shit in that case.
That's it.
Yeah.
We had some pre podcast drinks in the bus.
You did not come.
I was invited.
I was recording there.
Gavin was on a phone call outside,
and I would say hello to him,
and he did the discuss.
He's on the phone and he goes,
ooh, I did not, I want to ask.
No, it was a very serious.
Was it the finger or the hand?
It was the hand.
Two different, very different, very different.
Very different.
And it was all funny.
Why would I do this?
That's if like you're talking to me.
I'm like, that's me.
You definitely was a dismissive, don't speak to me.
I'm on a very important phone call.
Can I ask you what the phone call was?
If someone dismisses me with a hand, I'm okay with it.
If someone dismisses me with the finger,
I'm gonna knock that fucking finger out of there.
It was a real, yeah.
That's fucking normal.
It's rude.
Doing this?
Yeah. It's really rude. Yeah, so rude.
No, I can't write it.
No, it's like no.
No, it's like if you go like you wait.
Right, like the hand is, give me a minute.
The finger is no.
No, you did the waggle.
Oh, the waggle's like escalated even more.
No, that's a like an uh uh uh.
Mm hmm.
Little sassy.
Mm hmm.
Do not do that.
So was your call with Meg
about your water tray argument,
which very clearly she was in the wrong.
Is that how are we?
I thought you were gonna.
Was that how are we getting at your house
when Meg was so very clearly wrong about something?
I felt bad, she was getting bombarded.
I clearly was right,
but we actually had to like delete the video
because it was
literally thousands of
what was this when you when you reach out to people and you're asking to give
their opinion they're gonna give it a
minute and you know after an hour or so it was clear that I was right that was
this little um so in a fridge where you have like the water filler part yeah that's
like a drip tray you can clean but it cleaned, but it was put back in upside down
So I was like things upside down and and she sort of rotated it
Like this and I was like no, it's upside down. She's like what and I was like it's fun
Yeah, but it was really like
Be upside the upside was down. Yeah, it was a whole thing
We've been through it to death.
She was adamant about her position
to the point where they even made a Twitter poll
based on this.
A video and poll.
A video and a poll.
A video was explanation.
The poll followed shortly afterwards.
But the poll was taken down.
Do you remember what the breakdown was?
I think it was like 67 to 33%.
So that's still closer than I would have thought.
33% of people are wrong.
You agree with Gavin.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Upside is, I was blown away that I won
because she tweeted it was on her profile.
We were still like,
All the people who followed her and like,
I didn't tweet at all.
My facial recognition on my laptop does not recognize me.
If that tells you anything,
what about your phone?
It's like a newer technology there.
I don't think infrared needs to make me recognize me. Are you serious? Yeah, it does not recognize me. If that tells you what about your phone? It's like a newer technology. Anything infrared.
No, recognize me.
Are you serious?
Yeah.
It does not recognize me.
Wow.
It makes your eyes, it makes your blue pop.
There it goes.
There's head and make a second effort.
Matt, I saw one of the, I have to talk about this.
Last week I saw one of the most complicated to explain scams on the internet
that I've seen in a long time.
Really?
Really insidious.
Estonia we're gonna get Indian food.
So there's this local Indian restaurant that we like.
And I told her what I wanted.
I was like, just go and ask her if she could order it online.
So she ordered it.
And I was like, all right, I'm gonna go down
to the restaurant and pick it up.
As I'm driving to the restaurant, my phone rings, I answer it.
And it's a dude calling to confirm my order.
And I was like, yeah, that's what I ordered.
It's a dude with an Indian accent.
And I was like, that's weird.
Normally, when we order from that restaurant, they never call and confirm the order.
It's like, I just go in and get it.
So I show up at the restaurant and they're like, all right, yeah, we got the order.
Oh, and my wife also, she also paid for the meal online. I get to the restaurant and they're like, how did
you make this order? And I said, oh, my wife just ordered it from your website. And they
go, because it came into, it came into us a weird way. Like, this isn't how our orders from
our website come in. I was like, I don't know if she said she went to your website. So
then I sit down and I'm waiting for my food and I text to ask, how did you order this
food? She goes, I went to their website.
I said, okay, so like I look on their website and I'm like, yeah, they have order online here.
And then as I'm like looking this up, I get a text message.
What is that text message?
I should look at it.
It says, what's that?
What's your order, by the way?
Let's get to the chicken.
Chicken mockney.
What is that?
It's like a Tiga masala chicken with my dear cousin. And I get this text message from looking this up. It's amazing. Tiga masala. It's chicken with mack. Oh, that's that's it.
I get this text message from looking at this stuff.
It's amazing, right?
Dear customer, if you like our services,
like our FB page, just stay updated
with the latest offers posted on the page.
And it's got a company name after it.
I'm like, that's weird.
So then I look up the restaurant's Yelp page
and their Yelp page is verified.
It's claimed by them.
So it's got the check mark or whatever. And on their Yelp page, it does not have claimed by them, so it's got the checkmark or whatever.
And on their Yelp page, it does not have their website.
It's got a different website.
The URLs are the same, like Austin, Indian, restaurant,
but instead of .NET, it's .US on their Yelp page.
So you click on it and it's got their logo,
it says order online, it's such a specific business.
It looks like the real website,
but it's not the actual website.
But to then they, you order through them and then they place the order through the real company.
Right. So then this third party, they charge more.
Travel agency food. They charge more than if you order directly on the real website.
And they fax the order in so they don't ever actually pay the restaurant that gives you the food.
What do they do? They say that the restaurant needs to invoice them
and then they'll cut a check.
I look that company up on Google
and it's just all returns of,
I run a restaurant, this company is sending me orders
and they never pay me.
Wow, so they just fake websites.
They just become the middle man.
They became a middle man, take the money,
send an order on, and then don't do anything.
They don't pay the restaurant.
They just keep all the money.
Wow, that's amazing.
That's dark.
And of course, like, as I'm explaining this to,
as I'm talking to, like, the guy who I'm picking the food up
from, like, the owner walks in and I'm trying to explain
to him, like, he's just a restaurant owner.
He doesn't understand the internet.
I'm like, there's someone in California who's in person,
like, I'm showing him the website.
He's like, that's our website.
He's like, this is not your website.
This is someone else copying your website.
Like, look, the prices are wrong on it.
So you gave your credit card to this company.
Right, I'm like, great.
That's all the fun company.
That's my credit card now.
That's the other part of this, too.
Wow.
That's what I'm saying.
That's insane.
But was it not like an encrypted credit card section
on the, yeah, I mean, they just set up an SSL
who knows where that went?
Pretty lame scam.
It feels like a lot of work though
to replicate the whole website,
to go, like, you'd have
to have some actual skills to do that.
So I know.
Yeah, that's it.
That's the real job.
That's it.
That's it.
That's the job to get in between them.
Yeah.
Do we know for sure we've got stored at receipt.net.
Shush.
Like, go register now.
It's a middleman.
Yeah, I can't believe that that went through.
So I had to, like, I had to contact you up and ask them to change the website
for the guy and I was like, this is who the domain's registered to.
This is name, this is email address.
Like I don't think you can be able to do anything, but that's it.
Oh, that sucks.
Ellie, yeah.
British, right?
Go on.
Indian food here.
That's your work.
Indian food here is like well crap.
So crap.
Yeah, fuck out of here.
Well, it's not good out.
It's not good, but then again, like,
like English Indian food is well class.
So we've got like, there's a high floor.
Remember the food we had in India?
That being said, right?
We went to India and Indian food, right?
Tremendous.
English Indian food, just like that.
No.
Well, Tickey Masala is actually an English dish.
Like it was invented in England.
It's also like the official dish of London.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Is it really?
Yeah.
It was super serious about it.
It's also Indian food in the UK is the 2 a.m.
over you guys like 3, 4 a.m.
when you get out of the pub.
That's like a babva.
That was a cabab.
Is that what you all do?
Okay.
First, it's like, would you say, Gus,
would you say it's Chinese food?
That late, like the late,
graph food. No. I don't like 24 hour diner food is the always you say it's Chinese food? That late, like the late, graphing.
I either that or like 24 hour diner food is the only thing.
That's what I used to always do.
I used to go to like, Garseeds.
Like, you want to use soy meat shaved off a,
yeah, that would like,
some like, bad can curry sauce on chips.
Did you do cheesy chips?
I did cheesy chips.
I never did curry sauce on chips.
Oh, that's yeah.
Sort of like a, more posh thing.
I don't know if it is.
You got like, either it's gravy, or mayo, or curry sauce, or cheese.
Curry sauce is usually 50p extra, I'll give you that.
I'll give you that.
That was like the classic we would do that
and went to uni and Bournemouth,
and that was always the curry chips after the clubs closed.
You went to uni in Bournemouth?
Yes.
Okay.
It just took me a while to figure out what that meant.
Oh, okay.
Really?
Did you have like James Buckley coming DJ once?
Yeah, I did.
We were at this, like, it was in my first year
and it was like the club that my university owe.
Oh, you're matriculating here.
I got, go ahead and look at that.
And it was, yeah, like a special DJ set night
with James Buckley, and that was my opening to him
when I met him here.
I was like, I swear DJ is like with you once,
and he was like, cool.
And I was like, you did it?
Like, it just happened to be there.
I didn't see you out.
The career no big.
Yeah.
You know how when you're dating someone,
and you know they're different levels of drunk,
like we all know our own levels of drunk,
like if I get to a point in the night
and my brain says stop drinking right now
and I don't listen, that's gonna be a terrible night.
Mistake, really terrible night.
Or if I can't remember anything that happened the night
before, usually the last thing I remember
is somebody saying, hey, let's get some shots.
I just need to ask you remember.
Specifically, it's a keyless shot for me. Really is it? Yeah, it's like a good some shots. I just need to last year, remember, specifically tequila shop for me.
Really is it?
Yeah, it's like a good night's shop.
It's all awful.
But you learn that about someone you're dating
long term as well.
And what I learned about Ashley is,
there is a point of no return with her.
I know whenever he's the point of no return with drinking,
where there is a hot dog sandwich called Best Worst.
Yeah, okay.
Hot dog sausage stand. Yeah, I think a little sausage stand
That's on six tree. It's just it's dirty as it comes like it's one of those open flames where they have an oven tray
Not an actual like grill you can oven tray on top of little burners and they have a curry ketchup
And so I know if she wants to go there. I'm we're just it's over
She like sits on the curb like squat
to go there, we're just, it's over. It's over, yeah.
It's done.
She like sits on the curb like squat.
He sits, get it.
It's like it's primitive things.
I should have looked.
That peripheral vision just disappears, it's just like, it's just a hot dog.
One time when I was in Seattle, I went to one of the, I go to the little tips and I went
to one of those like sausage stands like that and I got this giant hot dog covered in
mustard and onions.
I was so excited to eat it and I took a bite.
And the entire sausage and all the condiments fell
right onto my shoes.
So I was left holding this soggy bun and I was like,
well that was shitty.
Like, that's a terrible way to end the night.
Did you just bite on the one?
No, I just, I left, I was like, what the fuck?
It wasn't meant to be.
It was, it was not meant to be, I was so upset.
Actually, my last memory on my birthday this year
was actually saying, let's get some shots.
Really?
Yeah, and then, but you remember,
I, this is when we were at E3 in LA, and it was my birthday.
Oh, yep.
And I remember, you texted me at like two in the morning,
like, happy birthday, have a good night.
And I texted you something that like,
rage for me now.
I was like, walked out of the party and found my way home somehow
after I actually bought us a round of shots.
I was like, it's done, it's over.
Hey, what was that?
I hadn't yet shown up in LA yet, right?
No, you still, you at the YouTube party, I just left a ghosted.
Oh, right.
After the shots happened, where was the place where we were?
We went to some event where Ellie, it was most of them in Melbourne for packs.
Ellie and her friend Beth completely took over the photo booth for about four hours
strength.
And to the point where they broke the photo booth,
she has just 20,000 photos from that party.
I mean, approximately.
It has a great Instagram account now.
The thing, it should.
You like hit capacity on it?
We got to the point where it was like,
I think we just took all the film from it.
Like, you didn't have any more footage.
No bits.
It had no bits.
I mean, felt so bad because these people behind us
have been waiting for ages because we were just like,
savage and stayed in there
for hours.
And then soon as we left, it was like no more.
And they were like, are you fucking kidding me? We were like, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee, e Broke in well he didn't break into the drunk guy who went to waffle house at like four in the morning and no one was there
So he made his own food really?
He went to the waffle house and open there was one employee there who was asleep at a table
So he said right he went into the kitchen. He made himself his food cleaned up
Took a few photos of himself posted on Facebook left and then the next day came back and paid for his food
That's the dream here money pay that night. He probably didn't want to open the register I believe it's one on me leave money like I mean the next day came back and paid for his food. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude.
That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. That's the dream dude. Thatops the whole meat. I did not hear about that. What?
I did not hear about that.
I was a patchy animal, we could find it.
Of a dude holding, a drunken holding the entire skewer of kebab.
I bet that's so satisfying.
I don't think I'm buying it out of.
That's the best thing.
You know, like when you do something dumb when you're drunk
and you wake up and it's like that,
like you steal a sign or something and then it's in your room,
waking up to find a full donut.
Like, a full floor, just like, oh no.
A friend of mine called us to be in a puddle of grief.
It was just so disgusting.
He was wandering through backyards.
I don't know why when he was drunk
and he came through some bushes
and there in front of him was a duck.
And so he took the duck and took it home,
but he couldn't remember where he got the duck.
So he spent all this time going to a door trying to find the owner of the duck and took it home, but he couldn't remember where he got the duck. Oh God. So he spent all this time going to our door,
trying to find the owner of the duck.
Is this your duck?
He had the duck probably like 10 years.
What?
That is 10 years duck?
Yeah, he ended up having to keep this duck.
He's got a duck.
How long did ducks live?
I don't, apparently more than 10 years.
I don't know, we get it forever.
I didn't think this.
A decade for a duck.
How long?
The mallards can live five to 10 years.
Wow, does that duck really take the piss?
I'm guessing you might have had it seven years.
He had a duck.
This is not duck.
Wow.
God.
Yeah, I've, I've, I've, I've made, I've done some pretty stupid stuff.
And I'm drunk.
I'm really worried.
So you, you took the duck?
No.
And here he is.
I get named the person, but, you know, I would want to out them.
They're a professional.
There it is. The guy with the camera. Oh, there it is. I get named the person, but you know, I don't want to out them. They're a professional. There it is.
It's the guy with the camera.
Oh, there it is.
Where's that dirt?
I mean, you didn't mention that part.
We're strong.
That's implied.
Now, either that's incredibly greasy.
Oh, that's one that hasn't been used yet
because the Serran rap is on it.
I believe it's Serran raped.
Or it looks like you took a big bite out of the side
of it, didn't it?
That is wrong.
With the cling film.
That is so wrong.
He's so, I bet it's cold.
There's nothing he can do with that.
I was thinking about it.
I bet it was like one on the spit would be really hot.
It has to be warmed to the constant temperature for five to seven days for it to be before it's eaten.
You said the way that works.
That's how I feel like it works.
Like, I don't know for sure.
Like are you state-fac?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
What it looks like, right, when they're like cutting it off, and just like I should not but I will. Man, who is this on Twitter, Megnog at Wiz LaKifa?
Talking about your duck said she'd call that a duck aid.
Nice. Nice. Wow. That's a good one.
I feel like Barbara is here in spirit. Yeah, probably.
Solid.
Did you hear about that problem American Airlines pad last week?
What's a pilot?
They gave like all the pilots holiday at once.
Yeah.
The scheduling system didn't accommodate
for everyone wanting Christmas off,
so let every pilot take off Christmas.
And there were like 15,000 flights for that pilot.
It is unplanable.
Like, no one knew that Christmas was gonna happen.
So it happened what now?
2017 times.
Well, they did celebrate the first year, surely.
What's that?
No way, everyone was celebrated.
You not heard of the Nativity?
It is, they were into it, but what was everyone else doing. You know how to do the nativity? They weren't.
So what was everyone else doing?
There was no room in the end.
They weren't celebrating it.
Right, the pilot didn't have to worry
about pilots taking off.
That's true.
Yeah, in 180.
Yeah, American Airlines.
Yeah, they weren't prepared for it in 180.
First of all, America didn't exist
neither did airlines.
America existed.
Certain people hadn't found it yet.
Well, it wasn't named America.
It was named whatever the country actually is called, you know,
and then we found it and we're like America.
It was America now.
There was 15,000 flights.
And I think we estimated if you,
if you round it off to like 200 people per flight,
it's like three million people affected by a lot of pilots.
So I mean, if pilots going on vacation,
right, I mean, I assume you don't fly yourself
to your own vacation.
They're like, I'm not flying our airline,
so I'm gonna fly someone else.
It's the only time throughout our travel saga is that I've been happy that I've booked
one world, BA, through American.
Why?
Because my flight operate to home is operated through British Airways, so it's really affected.
Oh really?
Operated by British Airways, huh?
Yeah.
Alright, here we go.
Didn't get my free upgrade because I don't care, but.
But if you can, you might as well.
Well, it's truly a good money for the different benefits because we figured that out.
We found that out and you were right. And we'll move on. We'll move past it.
Okay.
Ellie and I have a new thing in our life. And it's my favorite thing ever. Obviously,
I spend most of my time just trying to figure out how to make at least a harder.
That's a big part of my job now. So she sits right outside my office door
and our ceilings here, you can just shout
and people will hear it.
Well, ceiling.
Ceilings, right.
It's literally an open great.
Five-machila proof ceiling.
Right, exactly.
It's just open.
It's basically those little acoustic tiles
and a couple open greats.
So the ceilings are kind of implied here.
So when you talk, everyone around you can hear everything. Nonetheless, I didn't think she could be a proper assistant
and greet people unless she had an inner comp system to speak to me.
It's amazing. So she has a button now on her desk.
Like old style.
Yeah.
I love it because it's like such a power move. People will come and be like, Hey, it's
buddy and then I'm like, uh, uh, uh, Mr. Benz, are you free?
Does it make the buzzing noise? The poop? It does make it original version of.
Is that a power move for him or you?
Me.
How's that power move?
Because I get to be like,
you may not walk in right now.
One moment, the second, then buddy,
we'll be like, I'm just finishing up things up,
like, please wait.
Because let's do, let's back down a little bit here.
You do your end of the mind.
Okay.
Sir Blaine, you mind?
Mr. Banzi, are you free right now?
I'm not here.
Okay, I'll relay.
He's actually not available currently.
He is how I imagine.
So, Blake is here to be saying I'm not here.
Here's how I imagine it actually goes.
You be you.
I'll be bunny.
Okay.
Mr. Ponds, are you free right now?
I just should've just like background noises of pub G.
That's usually what it is.
So you need to have a sign on your door then that says,
please do not knock, speak to Ellie.
Ellie, she's good.
But if someone comes from the other side.
I like to catch people.
Because you're on one side.
Like if someone comes from this side.
That's when I'm like, yeah, you got to have like a mirror set up.
So you can like see down that hallway.
Yeah.
That would be so good.
You're like a hospital.
Like that brown mirror so you can see like down every every possible.
I don't know if that.
I feel like you should get a camera in there
just so you can see what he's doing.
That's probably not a good idea.
I had a weird moment.
I had a weird moment.
Yeah.
It also you can monitor through this thing.
I'm not sure how I feel about.
You can monitor the audio.
Not that all the audio can't be heard through
our real life anyway.
But Matt today, I had a bit of what I would call a long lunch,
started Friday.
And you want to talk about it?
Yeah, and so I had a long lunch and Matt texted me
and he goes, hey, I need to have a quick chat

And you're like, I was asleep.
I think that's a natural thing to make that with me.
Not me.
You don't want to be caught asleep.
But like, I'll come home.
You shall be like up and about with big, lying down at face.
Sorry, I spit.
And I'm like, been sleeping.
She's like, no, I'm in sleeping.
No, I just don't sleep.
You're the sleep.
It's not a reason.
If you're asleep, you're asleep.
You're bringing this up from a very specific example though.
And that is when we went to the film festival in Breton, Netherlands, and I overslept for
something.
And I can't even have a ride.
But you didn't even over sleep.
You weren't late.
I was just very close to late.
You were just woozy and crazy.
Crazy.
Yeah.
I also, we had gone out the night before,
and we had gotten miserable,
that drug.
We actually just talked about bloody women,
yeah, with the gauntlets.
That Irish woman who ran up,
the Belgian bar in New Orleans.
Yeah, she had these ceramic mugs with these beer.
We talked about it last week,
but we got so drunk.
And that was probably the last time,
was it eight years ago?
Seven years ago?
Probably.
Yeah.
It's a bit of a nine.
It was about the lifespan of a duck somewhere
over five to ten years.
A year before a duck dice.
It was one duck ago that you and I
went to the Netherlands and drank this beer.
And I think the beer cost three sandwiches.
I think it did.
And that was the last time I threw up from drinking.
Jury's the night.
Yeah, oh my god, I threw up so much.
But the thing is, what you were there for,
your little presentation or whatever,
you nailed it.
No one would ever have known.
Crushed it that you were asleep seven minutes earlier
and voming.
And completely hungover.
Yeah.
Complicating the day off or the day after?
That's professional.
Day before we drank, and so I woke up with the hangover
to go do the event.
What were that two obligations then?
Because there was another one where we had to bail
on waffles because someone got the title. Because there was no one got the title. Oh, that was the rehearsal for the event. Right.
Then we had delicious Belgian waffles and and then you know, I don't think so because Jason was with us for the waffles. No, that was Jeff
was a Jeff with us and you were mad at Jeff because he got the time wrong. But the thing we had to bail on waffles. That's right
Yeah, and then we couldn't spend that long in the really nice smelling alley. We already paid for the waffles.
And we just waiting for them to be made.
And then this happened.
And then we had to go running off.
Butter bummer.
And this bummer.
Did you have something about those waffles often?
They're so good.
They're like stru poffles, which are just basically
cookies with caramel.
Caramel, caramel.
So when gave me some stru poffles
at RTX this year, like authentic real stru poffles,
not that.
One thing you'll like,
how are food for the amazing race?
That is right.
We actually, and I did a lot of research
to determine what had the highest calorie count
per ounce of carry weight.
And so that these marathon runners have these,
what are they called?
I should know by now, but there's these little waffles
that are basically like stupe waffles,
but they're energy things. Like the jellies and everything else still weighed more
versus the amount of calories they would give you.
What's the stuff in load of the rings?
The lamb is bread.
We actually talked about it like that,
lamb is bread.
We wanted lamb is bread.
Let me take, those became really powerful
bargaining tools for us, these little waffles.
Can you just crush bread?
No.
Back into dough.
What? Like the process of making bread is reversible.
You never just get a slice of bread
and just mash it into the smallest area possible.
Yeah, I would make cubes out of it.
I used to do that.
I was a few bottles there.
They're showing you some
in Egypt's true bottles right now.
So it sucks when you have to think about food like that way,
you know, caloric and like trying to maximize yourself
and you don't get to fully enjoy your meal.

You did just come by.

Yeah, you came to the set with like first class nuts. Yep. Yeah, it's good shit
Where does go by the way did the broadcast crew? What'd you guys do with my little?
There they are
What do you call what do you call that?
It's a ramekin
Thank you. It's a ramekin. Okay, so I learned that what the year I'm attriculated. No, did you really?
I got we're learning Bernie doesn't know,
doesn't have a very good vocabulary.
I have a very good vocabulary.
Do you?
All right, tell me straight up.
You didn't know that was a Remake.
It's really super good vocabulary.
The best.
It is like a totally good, really good vocabulary.
These are Remake.
These are Remake.
We're like a good like,
there's a little bit of nut and so much.
A little creme brulee. There's a little bit of nut and soul. A little cremberle.
There's a little bit of price tag still on the bottom of that one.
Oh, is there really?
I got to get rid of that, you know me.
One night in nine.
Oh, yeah, from bed bath and beyond.
That means he didn't walk it, by the way, if the sticker's still on there.
I did wash it, I washed the inside of it.
Do you pay for a Remake?
Look at that, though.
I have a Remake.
I like it a little sushi.
Not clean enough.
A soy bowl.
Yeah.
What do you make cremberle in? Not often making Cremberlain.
I left my chef's blowtorch in England.
No, no.
I can't make it.
Is there dirt to do?
Chef's blowtorch and like an actual blowtorch?
Well, probably small.
It's a little smaller and probably, yeah, less than that.
Maybe the program plan isn't like this big.
My mom makes a mean Cremberlain.
I've had your mom's Cremberlain.
You have.
We went to her parent company farmhouse
Which was built in like
1480 or something like that before the country existed and she made his Cremberlay
It was really good. We also had lamb lamb. We had lamb. I'm trying to remember give New York's a put
No, you don't have your expirible lamb. Well, we did the next morning
We went out with a friend of yours and we had breakfast
and I had everything and Ellie was very particular about what she would eat in her full English
breakfast, but I had the gross pudding, the extra gross pudding, and then the third gross
pudding.
We had white pudding.
Where was this in London?
Oh, come here there for our text London.
Yeah, he had black pudding and white pudding.
What the Christ is white pudding?
Oh, it's just like all the cartilage and fat and so.
Chicken water.
Yeah, so black pudding is like blood and blood pudding.
White pudding or oatmeal pudding is a meat dish popular
in Ireland, Scotland, Northumberland, Nova Square.
White pudding is similar to black pudding,
but it does not include blood.
It consists of pork meat and fat,
suet, what's that?
SUV tea?
The legion.
Burnt candy does that is bread and oatmeal formed into a large sausage. Support me and fat, Sueette, what's that? SUVT? I'm not sure. The legion.
What did it?
Brett and oatmeal formed into a large sausage.
It's 100% not okay.
It's like it looks like it.
It's really.
It was pretty and it was chewable.
Oh, that looks like.
I have no idea.
Sueette is the raw heart fat of beef or mutton found around the loins and kidneys.
Sometimes you just have a chuck shit away.
You don't have to use it.
Well, I said,
the deepest dog is Ireland, you do.
How you do?
The winter gets dark and everything.
So, shall we go to the shops?
Or let's just use the sewage, come on.
Let's do it.
I saw on Reddit today, someone posted a piece of homework
that a child had written supposedly.
And I guess there was like a question
that the teacher had written down
there's supposed to write an essay about.
And the question was,
if you were stranded on a desert island,
would you rather be by yourself or with someone else?
And then the answer that this kid wrote was,
I'd rather be on the island with someone else,
someone that I hate that way when I'm hungry
I have someone to eat.
Wow, good thinking.
Wow, savage.
That's some critical thinking.
That is very critical thinking. Someone that I hate that I would someone to eat. Wow, good thinking. Wow, savage. That's some critical thinking. That is very critical thinking.
Someone that I hate, that I would not feel bad
about consuming.
How long could you live off of a person?
Whoa.
Good week.
Can you store it?
Like you have a method to store it to not boil it up?
If you don't need to store it.
If you put a rod down them and just slowly rotate them
for a week.
Five to seven days.
Five to seven days. Five to seven days.
What's like in a shave off?
In the two towers, the Uruk's talking about
like cutting off a leg of one of the hobbits, right?
Like they don't eat their leg.
Right.
Just take the leg.
They don't eat their legs.
So I mean, this is the stuff you gotta think about
when you're fighting for survival.
So if you had somebody with you, if you kill them,
you gotta eat all that meat in like a week.
Yeah, that's like,
but if not next week with a week
after in my survival training.
But if they don't kill them.
Well, you could like smoke them or something, right?
Oh, yeah, I guess you could.
You could sun dry person.
Oh, gosh.
Wow.
How long could you live off of a person?
Assuming no spoiling.
Let's say you got a person and a cooler.
Okay.
Well, I think I could live for two or three weeks.
A cow's like what? 600 pounds?
Oh, way more than that. Is it 800 pounds? How much is a cow?
Anyway, I would ask. What do you ask? I'll do it. I ask you guys for facts. Nobody ever has
facts. Female adult cow, 1600 pounds male adult cow, 2400 pounds. And you could live off of a cow
for a long time. Yeah. A long time. Look way a stomach that's full and then divide that by a cow.
What do you mean?
You're not working a fill up on cow.
Way of full stomach.
But think about this way.
You can eat a half pound burger, right?
Yeah.
Are you really stuff?
That's a meal, a half pound burger.
So then that's your math.
A meal is a half a pound of beef.
But why not a quarter pound or a whole pound?
I think it's your full dude.
You're not gonna have bread, you're just eating meat.
Okay.
It's true, or like plants and plants if you can forge them.
I wouldn't, I would wait to kill the person
before I had grown some lettuce or something
to have with it just to.
And they're just there to take.
Like wait.
Yeah, trick is saying.
Why you grown all these condiments?
Patrick, I think an average thousand pound steer
breaks down to provide 4 hundred thirty two pounds of
saleable beef. I've seen that. Yep. And the average American eats around 270 pounds of meat per year.
This is an upset and laugh. Two hundred seventy pounds of meat is a lot. So you could,
so two hundred seventy pounds of meat, how much of a person you need to be? Two people,
like a eight hundred eighty pound person. I mean, going off that, you get like 40, 40% of a cow,
you can eat out of the unit, 40% of a person. I don't think you can person. I mean, going off that, you get like 40% of a cow.
You can eat out of the, you need 40% of a person.
I don't think you can either.
I think you'd be lucky to get like 25 to 30%.
So you're looking at 25% of 180.
90, 45 pounds.
Yeah, what's that?
45, yeah.
So what a human have wing meat.
So if you eat two, how is everyone okay with this conversation?
We're just doing math here.
This is a, we're not, yeah, we're not naming names.
We're just speculating.
I just came up with a random number, 280 pounds.
I didn't pick someone in particular.
Like I didn't say if I was trapped on a deserted island
with a goss how long can I live?
Who would you rather eat from this company?
I actually feel like we've had this company.
We have had this conversation.
This sounds very familiar.
Top choice.
Blaine would be good.
So you'd eat American meat.
Because you got choice now.
You got like,
well, American's way more, right?
The British beef is prime.
But, but with you to break,
you're worried about mad cow disease.
That's true.
That's long gone.
Wow, you guys trapped in the 90s.
Yeah, were you all alive in the 90s?
I forget.
Did you all eat beef in the 90s?
Probably.
The fuck, it tell me I'm trapped in the 90s.
That should trapped in you, motherfucker.
All right. Yeah, that's fair.
I know how this works.
Man, the other day I was,
it's definitely changed a subject since here.
It's a little uncomfortable with it.
No, I'm totally fine with it.
The other day I was, I had to take someone to a doctor's appointment.
It's the first time Gus has accommodated anyone of the podcast ever by the time. I'm being very nice. Very special. I had to take someone to a doctor's appointment. The first time Gus is accommodated to any one of the podcasts ever, by the way.
I'm being very nice.
Very special, mom.
I had to take someone to a doctor's appointment.
What do you mean someone?
You mean your wife, Esther?
No, it was someone else.
That's the other one out that person's doctor appointment.
That's their deal.
I would have told you about this ahead of time
if you've been in your fucking seat
that we wouldn't ask who it was.
You're taking random people to the doctor.
I had to take someone to a doctor's appointment.
Well, I'm curious.
And we're getting ready to leave. Don't shut off the podcast for I had to take someone to doctor's appointment. Well, I'm curious and
We're getting ready to leave you on shut off the podcast for a second. We're getting ready to leave and there's another patient who's also like leaving They're getting ready. They're walking out the door and as they're walking out the door
The nurse says to them. Oh, thanks for coming in. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and the woman who's walking out
Go turns stops turns her looks to the nurses says
Thank you and thank you for saying Christmas.
Oh, really?
Yeah. And then the nurse says, well,
there's a few holidays coming up.
So, you know, happy holidays actually does work better.
So happy holidays.
Oh, she went back on her.
Yeah.
Commitment.
And then the, the patients walk out the door,
just like, looks at her and then turns around and leaves.
Like, man, who's the person who's like,
thank you for saying Christmas.
Well, let me ask you a question though,
honestly, in that situation. If she said Mary Christmas's the person who's like, thank you for saying Christmas? Well, let me ask you a question though, honestly, in that situation,
if she said Mary Christmas to the person,
and that person specifically asked them,
or thanked them for saying Christmas to them,
why would she go back on it?
Like if I said happy Hanukkah to someone,
they go, oh, thank you,
thanks for saying happy Hanukkah,
you know what, never mind.
No, happy holidays,
not necessarily your specific holidays.
It's like, it's so pointed.
It's so pointed of being like,
yes, and actually that means that you agree
with my super exclusive thing.
I get that.
I do get that part of it.
There was some attitude.
It does sound like it, especially the way you said it.
And I get that part of it, but then why back off?
I mean, because it's like actually,
there are a bunch of different holidays coming up
and like way to be real.
Now that I think about it.
It's exclusive.
I'm just curious about other people listening.
Right, she doesn't want to seem exclusive to other people and like way to be now that I think about it. Exclusive. We feel it's other people listening. Right.
She doesn't want to seem exclusive to other people
and agreeing with this.
And it's kind of just like a natural reflex
but like had a Christmas.
It's December.
Damn right.
What if you guess the denomination of the holiday
and you got hers right, why would you be upset by that?
Like, it's okay to greet someone with their
specific holiday.
Because of their response.
It's definitely all in their response
of being like, yes, and thank you for that.
Oh, they were told not to say Christmas.
I accidentally did it and then they're like, oops, yeah, that could also be it.
We are.
I'm timing.
We are.
It's the war on Christmas, Bernie.
Happy you have a lot of peace.
It's a holiday.
Perfinalio back there.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
We've got a little makeshift.
Ahthannika,'ve got the Christmas tree,
we've got the quans of things.
Dave, I don't know.
So you could just go one up on everything too.
You could say like Merry Christmas.
You could say, oh thank you,
and thank you for saying Christmas.
Go, yeah, hope it's a white Christmas.
You fucking racist.
That's what I would have done.
That's what I would have done.
That's just...
That would have been your natural response.
It's two different conversations.
That point, I'm not going back on the original thing.
I'm just going doubling down on this racist bitch.
Is it racist?
I don't know if it's racist, it's just exclusionary.
It's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just,
it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's just, it's not intended to exclude anyone. It's actually intended to include everyone.
What is the happy holidays?
The happy holidays, right?
It's like you're covering them all.
Whatever it is, you're into good luck with that.
People want that exclusivity.
They don't want to be lumped in.
People are racist.
I don't know.
People want to stand out, I don't know.
It's just weird to me.
It was the first time I'd experienced that in person.
Like, yo, it's definitely a frosty exchange.
Right, I always see people like type shit like that
and you see you read that shit online all the time.
It's the first time I'd actually seen it.
Someone with the balls to be like, yes, and thank you.
Yeah, it was like, wow, okay, I guess it does happen.
So I've done a new good thing, a new, amazing decisions.
This happened so rarely, What did you do?
Sided, right?
When my phone is on silent and no longer vibrates.
Life changing has changed my life.
But then you're just not getting your texts and phone calls exactly.
It's like turning a phone off, but it's much faster.
So when you said good, you meant like good for you and not for the world.
I mean, why is it not good for the world?
Because people need to get all the views sometimes.
Yeah, but if I'm if I'm friends with Scythe, then I'm clearly like, I mean, I, I don't wake up at 4 a.m.
It's important to take care of yourself.
It also doesn't tell them it's on silent, right?
It just, they're just sending your messages and you're not replying.
Here's the thing though, go ahead.
If you emailed me and I go back to you two hours later,
wow, when does that ever happen?
Fucking burn. What is the difference between two hours later? I don't know, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Before the podcast, before the podcast started, Gavin was walking up and I asked him, hey, can you do the podcast on the 18th?
He was, oh, maybe.
I think so.
Who's in like, guess right now,
but if I have to go out of town, then I can't.
Okay, yes, right now.
There, that's the commitment.
Yes, right now.
Put it in my calendar.
I fucking sent you an invite.
And you accept it one one time,
so I know you can do it.
Maybe my purpose on silent.
The silence should be silent. What's the point?
I don't want my phone to vibrate anymore.
I love it. I love it so much.
I've actually selectively disabled most of the vibration alerts on my phone.
Like I know if my phone vibrates, it's something I need to look at.
Yeah, I don't get any vibration for it.
If I'm like, actually need like silent, like old school silent,
I'll put my phone face up near me. So when someone comes in it just lights up and that to me is better because that way if I'm not by my phone
Yeah, if you're new your phone it lights up. Well if I get a text
Yeah, so if I put my phone down I'm watching here
But I've been out with you for drinks and a bar and stuff
You have your phone in your hand and all of a sudden the flash goes off. Oh, I don't do that
I'm talking to screen. Oh, but what I want is have your phone in your hand, and all of a sudden the flash goes off. Oh, I don't do that.
I'm talking about the screen.
Oh, what I want is when my phone is in my pocket
and on silent, I don't want to be distracted by it.
And I'm enjoying life a lot more.
Like being out at a bar and I'll check my phone occasionally,
and I've got like 16 texts,
but I wasn't doing this like 16 times
throughout the conversation.
I get what you're saying.
And it's one of those, well, look at you with 16 texts,
congratulations on that.
It's like when you turn off notifications and everything,
I have notifications off on everything.
I'll check it when I want to check it.
Yeah.
It is really important to take moments away
from the tech, like technology that's in our faces
all the time.
I agree with that.
It's nice.
And I've been playing a lot of board games recently.
I saw you were playing battleship.
Just recently.
Battleship. Come on. Make it you were playing battleship. Just recently.
Battleship.
Come on.
Mike destroyed me.
Good idea.
Good idea saying that.
But after the debate, was it debate hard?
Was it hot?
Well, like after, because she did, the deletion of the tweets spoke volumes to me.
That was long after it was resolved.
Okay.
That was like the next day.
Is it resolved?
Yeah.
And she was like full on like, yeah, you win. Okay. Well, it's you guys. But I smash it and monopoly and scrap
it. I suck about shit. My bombing patterns on efficient at the great big geek on Twitter
says, am I old pharmacy? We could have been fired if we said Merry Christmas. My current
job rounds upon it as well. So maybe your theory about.
You could have been fired for saying Merry Christmas.
Yes.
Really?
According to the great big key.
At a pharmacy.
Okay.
Okay.
Can you make me being fired for saying something?
Yeah.
It depends what you say.
Well, I mean,
let's be a good fire for something.
I'm still like, I'm like, you're just a heroine
and I guess you're a new fucker.
I'm just saying that. I'm just saying, just saying something nice to someone.
Yeah, kind of, kind of, non-important remark.
Yeah, like, thank God it's Friday.
It's like, I don't believe in God.
Wow, and get out.
Get out, cheer fired.
Take your shit and get out.
I don't know.
It just, it seems weird to me that someone would go
out of the way to tell people not saying married Christmas.
I mean, I was told at Waitress, never to say, have a nice day.
Well, that's, we're getting British.
Why? That's because they sound too much like Walmart and English people hate American
Corporations. Oh, that's true. Have a nice day. Yeah, because everyone's like you don't care about me. Yeah, don't tell me what to do
Ask me about my day. You don't care
That might be part British. I'm gonna fuck about anyone else's day. Yeah, waitress are really strict about
fuck about anyone else's day. Waitress, I really don't.
I really don't.
I really don't.
I really don't.
They were very strict about how you would work stuff.
Like if ever someone said thanks,
I was never allowed to say no problem.
Because no is negative.
You have to say, oh, it was my pleasure.
You're welcome.
Blah, blah, blah.
Well, I was not allowed to say when I made subs,
I was also not allowed to say no problem to thanks
because it sounded like they were apologizing.
That's an appropriate response to someone
that they're not bothering us by coming to the sub shop.
They're saying, thank you, you're welcome.
I was thinking of it as it was no problem at all.
It was, I didn't go out of my way.
Well, you think that because you're Mexican.
One, well no.
Is this racist, that's all the reason I was laughing.
If I say grossy, what do you say?
They're not, it's nothing.
It's nothing, right.
You say it's nothing. That's the response to that. One thing that not, it's nothing. Right, you say it's nothing.
That's the response to that.
One thing that really threw me off when I...
Everyone who laughed is racist.
I just wanna let you know.
One thing that really threw me off when I moved here
is this, like, an American thing,
if when you say thank you, when someone says sure.
Oh, yes.
Yeah, and you're like, what?
Yeah, yes, it reports the thank you.
Like, oh, thank you so much.
Yeah.
Well, I was trying to, I put that a lot, I was like, and I was like, wow, how really... I was like, I was like, I'm a friend of the past. Yeah, yes, it was the thing. Like, oh, thank you so much. Yeah. Well, I've heard that a lot.
I was like, wow.
I was like, I was like, I'm afraid of the person.
Yeah, exactly.
I felt exactly the same way.
But just in my head, it's like, say thanks.
Oh, thank you.
Damn, right.
Yeah, exactly.
How you hear it?
It's like, yes, you should be thankful.
Wow.
Like, whoa, OK.
And it took me ages to get used to that's just what people say.
Did moving to America make you stupid?
That's rude.
If that's something you're inferring.
I'm just saying that being from England and coming here,
I feel like my intelligence took like maybe like a five to ten
I can definitely have to like,
maybe we less popular in England is what you're saying.
I definitely had to reorganize a lot of like,
like kind of social instinct of like how you respond to stuff.
I feel like I apply more of my brain
to being understood by American.
And then it's like, my brain is now a capacity
for like actual intelligence.
No, okay, I get what you mean by that for sure.
That you're like, I'm so like trying,
like conscious of like trying to be normal
in social situations a lot of the time
and not have people be like,
I also bring issue, which happens anyway.
A day to day issue of trying not to have a conversation about how you're British and
just at this point, I just have to go with it and be like, yes, I sure am.
And people are like, how did you get between?
Yeah.
I don't know, it's such a similar country in a lot of ways, but some things are so different.
Exactly.
It's not like living in, like living somewhere like Thailand,
but you're so obviously not from there
that everything is weird and that's kind of okay.
But when you move here and like people expect you
to be American and then they're like,
oh my gosh, you're not.
And you're like, yeah.
Yeah, I'm good.
What, is there an American here?
And I found that it's very easy to change
the words that you use.
Like I will say flashlight or trash to an American. Just to not have the conversation.
Well, yeah, it just comes naturally now. I'll just fling them out.
And if I go about England, I'll say rubbish or torch. But I will never spell stuff wrong.
No. No matter how long I'm here, I will never put it in real life.
Just say differently.
All right, but to me, it's like, it's wrong.
You'll often say Zed instead of Z.
Yeah.
But to me, I will never spell stuff that puts the squealy red line under my, you know, laptop
typing.
You can add those.
Is your laptop still set to British English?
Yeah, because that's how that's how that's how it's like.
That's the way it puts the little red line after anything with the U in it, like color.
Yeah, just creating it.
That way, it's up to doing that.
Tell it this is correct.
Learn it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't want to.
But actually, I keep my own. You don't want to spit. But actually, I keep my
I don't want to solution to your problem.
I keep problem. It's just I can't.
That's the one complaining about it.
I'm complaining. I'm just I can't
switch it easily and I for some reason can't switch.
I'm not saying it's an issue.
Color with a use is looks right to me.
I keep mine on American just so I get this clearly lined
so I can send it and be like, that's right.
That's right.
That's right.
Pro says it's an author correct.
No, well, yeah, I'll check it for that.
Yeah.
Would you ever change it back?
Just doing, yeah.
Like, the thing that gets me most on auto correct
is that every time I text Bernie with a word vlog,
it changes it to vlog.
It's a iOS does not know.
No iOS for Mac knows the word vlog.
And it fucking refuses to learn it. It's so, I mean, we'll take each other back and forth it's like, vlog, Mac knows the word vlog. And it fucking refuses to learn it.
It's so, I mean, we'll take each other back and
both of us like blog, blog, blog, blog, shit.
Cause it usually the last word in the sentence too,
which I wish you could just turn off,
don't correct the last word in the sentence
when I hit sent.
Oh, don't ever correct anything twice.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, duck.
Twice in a row.
Every time.
Or don't change a properly spelled word
to a different properly spelled word.
Yeah.
I get that.
I'm like, nope, nope, that's not what I wanted.
I do not suggest an emoji to replace my word.
I kinda like that.
I like that.
I like that.
I had started using an emoji.
I sent you an an emoji just as you sent them so often.
I wrote the word corner and it suggested corn emoji ER.
That's great.
You're gonna send that.
I did not.
I'm gonna start doing that.
Oh my God, you just kind of blew my mind, Ellie.
You have ruined communication for everyone
that has a deal with me.
You fit emojis in wherever possible.
Yes, that's gonna be so much less than you're bit mojo.
I love it.
Oh my God.
Everyone, I'm so sorry.
This is great.
Okay, Gavin, one of you get the messages.
So, we're just looking at four hours later. We're gonna be silently going up in his bucket. Oh my god, everyone. I'm so sorry. This is great to get Gavin one even get the messages
We're looking at four hours later. We're silently going off and spog it now. What I've learned is the word banks is
Uh-huh, we're spotted two differently in different places, but Australia they just use the word wrong
Yes, in Australia they use the word thanks instead of the word please like that'll be a
50 cents pleat 50 cents thanks. Wow, that's rude.
That's what they say.
50 cents thanks.
50 things thanks.
That's just like, and you will do this.
Yeah, right.
And thank you in advance.
It's like a preemptive polite strike.
What are you saying?
No.
You're putting it up front. No, no, no, no is that polite on your bike? You don't say on your bike.
Be on your way.
Yeah, I'm being a down-to-down like that.
I also don't like the phrase,
when people say please and thank you,
like when they combine it at once,
like can you do me, can you send me this,
whatever, please and thank you.
It's like, look, you're just kind of like bundling in there
for like, you know you have to say it.
You're just like, and those words that I need to say.
They just covered.
I even feel like with text, we revolve to a place
where sometimes even the word please comes off
as a bit rude.
You know how text always come off as like really short?
No, it doesn't matter what mood you're actually
and it always come off as like rude.
So if you send this thing, it's like,
hey, do you mind doing this?
But if you're like, hey, do you mind doing this please?
It's like, it always reads to me
is like almost a bit, like in the same way as like saying it, thank you for.
It's way too assertive. It's very assertive. Like, you like in text, you didn't have to
send that. But you went out of your way to type that as well and add it in.
Hey, this please. I have. I always remember if I'm trying to be polite, but I'll put like
a please. So they get back to you. Execute. Is there a emoji like P's? P-lease.
P-lease.
P-lease.
P-lease.
P-lease.
P-lease.
The, I have learned the text is you, I can't have a, a critically important conversation.
Especially a personal conversation over text.
I'm done with it because I got in one of the dumbest arguments ever.
I didn't know I was in the argument until two days later when this person was still mad at me.
And here's what I did.
They were asking me questions.
I replied back to them and I was writing something out
and it was two sentences long.
So I was writing something out and I hit space-based,
puts a period, and went to write the second sentence,
and I'm just explaining this too much.
So I backed up, said send, but I left the period there.
And because I used, then this person, she shut down. I didn't find out
the two days later. She was mad because I put a period at the end of my text. Really? Yeah.
A punctuation. A big fucking deal. punctuation is huge. A period is like, how am I done?
I think I always put a period. No, you die. Nobody talks to you. No, I don't.
But then I always forget that at home, people still end will end every message with kiss.
I realize that Americans didn't do that. I just thought nobody liked me.
If I do it, yeah.
Like in England, like every one will end a text message every time with acts.
If you don't put an acts on the end of a text, you'll pass.
Like your pissed off.
Your pissed right off.
I've never heard of this.
Yeah.
And so when I moved here and I would be texting my new friends and I'd like,
no one likes me.
Because it would just be the end of them.
It's like, yeah, see you there.
I'm like, what's the point?
Hey.
If someone's into you as well,
the amount of X's was very telling.
Yeah, exactly.
It's a very, very, very, very,
or you're in.
I'm in there.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, see, that's the, that's the hey.
How many Y's you get on your hey?
Yeah.
And when you first reach out to someone like,
hey, what's up with them like're like, hey, or hey.
You get like, four wise.
Yeah, I kind of forgot about it.
That point.
And last time I went home, I was meeting up with
a really good friend of mine, and he texted me,
like, yes, he doesn't come back to see you in like,
three X's, and I was like, what?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, my mom had a word with me.
She was like, you don't put X's on your text,
or I was like, I'm not mad.
I'm just an American thing.
I just text Americans all the time now.
Yeah.
Gus, did you know about that?
No, I had no idea.
I had no idea this was the thing.
It's a whole thing.
British.
It's an excellent gauge, just a little bit more.
I'm not good at British.
It's the limp text.
Oh, because then the Xs was like, oh shit.
I need to get my shits together.
Why do British people text?
Who is responsible for that?
Yeah, like, where did that, who started the text?
I think another student thing.
The text you all did.
No, yeah, but like, who's responsible?
Oh, there's the guideline here.
There you go.
Well, you look up the guide.
The number of X's.
Guideline, let me read this in here, I'll pass.
Got it.

Thank you.
Thanks, Casper.
Thanks, Casper.
Have you stopped doing it, Ellie?
Yeah, I have.
I'm not doing my friends at home.
Is it every text?
Yeah. Literally every single text. That's so annoying. It's for between not to my friends. I'll still do it to my friends at home. Is it every text? Yeah, every literally every single text
Yeah, that's so annoying. It's for between me and my sisters. It's like a mood game
Yeah, it's like every text comes with a that's really an additional piece of information
It is it is exactly it's like I hate it
It's like here's his the information and then like here's how I'm feeling about this right now
I feel like it only works with English people in England
Yeah, but my text you and I put like a couple of X's on it,
that'd be really weird, right?
Yeah, here's the secret way.
From Quora, here's the breakdown of X's
and what they mean in British text.
No X equals for a person you know,
you will not get an X back from,
or a slash if you are annoyed with someone,
or it's a person you don't really know that well.
X is standard for any friend,
or girl you don't really know, well. X is standard for any friend or girl you don't really know.
XX is a girl you like.
Anything more than two X's is flirting going overboard or playing a game with someone.
It's also a great way to delineate between personal and professional relationships.
I would never have texted anyone I was working with in England X's because that would be weird.
Is it weird? Is that thing?
Yeah, until you become friends and then we just want
to get one X. Yeah. It's like a rating system. Kind of. It's like an ubers like I five stars. I want to go in a pretty successful
dialogue with a girl. I think you got up to five X's. Wow. It's pretty proud of it back and forth
every time. That's basically like an engagement. Yeah, it didn't work out. Oh, we
That's basically like an engagement. Yeah, it didn't work out.
Oh, we,
this is too many X's and I'm comfortable.
Slightly different topic than the X's.
But I wanted to follow up on something
that we talked about a couple of weeks ago.
We talked about, we were asking whatever happened
to the East India company.
Oh yeah.
And after the podcast, someone sent me
like a little bit of info and I shared it with Gavin
at the time and we said, this is a company
that had a navy larger than most nations and they collapsed
and what happened.
Apparently, I'm not going to get into the whole thing because it's actually really complicated.
But there was an event, there was a financial crash in 1720 called the South Sea Bubble
where people were speculating on these companies that did the shipping.
And the debt that happened as a result of this financial collapse was so great that the
UK is still paying on it to this day.
Yeah, so how much does it have to pay off?
The remainder is currently 1.4 trillion pounds.
The last payment that I found that the UK made was in 2014, where they paid 2.5 billion
pounds to it, less than 2.10 of 1%.
Wow.
He mentioned all of those people's tax money and it just goes to like some old crap
from the past.
And so it's interest to pay on the debt.
Right.
Yeah, I'm sure that's what that 2.5 billion pounds was.
It was probably the interest that was due at the time on it.
There's still like over a trillion dollars in debt due that the UK is paying.
They're still paying off the second world war too, right?
I think they just finished that.
They just finished that.
I think it just happened.
I think that delayed their repayment.
Repayment?
That's the selfie bubble.
Whoa, that's insane.
Why can't they just be like, you know what, Lads?
Should we just drop it?
Should we just, everyone's dead?
No, I'm not.
I'm not like, put in the NHS or something.
What's the Roman Emperor who did that?
Came in and absolved all debts.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Let me see, I'm gonna look that up if you see if I remember
that correctly. That's crazy though. It don't know. Let me see if I remember that correctly.
That's crazy though. It's crazy like a 300. Thanks, Bernie. A 300-year-old debt that's still
like being paid on. You got to sense that. Apple couldn't pay off that debt. What do you
thank you me for? Oh, the text I sent you? Yeah, I'm the text for the exit.
Oh, I'm just gonna do that. Wow, yeah, that's insane. That's a lot of money.
They talk about that one, do they?
In their old, like, tax reforms.
Yeah, or a.
You're gonna stand under your attorney and the healthcare.
I wonder how much of my specific tax money
has gone to that couple of P.
And I still don't know who that goes to.
Like who is the person collecting that money?
Who's it owed to?
Who's the jet one to?
Right, who's holding onto that debt after 300 years like I'm gonna get my trillion
I'm a trillion air. Yeah, where does that goes? It like wealthy families in various countries
Do they send it invoice every month? Yeah, I mean is there a company is like East Indian? Yeah, the invoice
There is there a one one point four trillion pounds. How much you paying?
Peter Hay sent me something
Oh, no, this is different, nevermind.
This is a little different.
I guess Yale is still getting interest
on a 367 year old bond.
Whoa.
So it must be like that,
like some institution that still exists.
Yeah.
Well done, that's a little better.
I mean like at what point do they just go like,
all right, like a thousand years.
Is there a point like that that would just be paying that a wrap?
What is America's oldest debt?
Oh, who knows, that's a good question.
America's probably a lot to the date of Americans probably.
I would assume that would be the first thing.
Really? Do you think there's a final?
But they're still not paying on it.
I feel like I've had a bunch of casinos and quoted quiz.
Well, time will tell.
Time will tell.
Time will tell.
Did you ever hear about what,
what, what, what, what,
Benjamin Franklin did?
Electricity?
Many things.
Turkey's.
$100.
Very specifically with debt and everything.
So Benjamin Franklin made donation to the, I believe, the cities of Boston and Philadelphia.
And he said that they could have the money. $2,000 is what he donated, which I'm sure at the time of
his. He was huge. Donation was enormous. Benjamin Franklin, bequeathed the cities a total of $2,000
sterling with one hitch.
Much of the money could not be drawn on for 100 years
and the remainder could not be distributed for 200 years.
Today what remains of Franklin's request
is worth $6.5 million from $2,000.
That's a demonstration of the power of interest.
That's crazy.
I'd like to see that mapped against inflation.
Well also they withdrew a bunch of money a hundred years ago to say what percent could be withdrawn,
but apparently they could do that. I mean, this is a long article. Why is it your time?
Cost you money to check your balance at an ATM because America is a bit ungrateful. It's
convenient. It's fee. Why do you need to check your balance at ATM? Don't you have mobile
banking on your phone? I didn't check balance. Just said the little warning on it. It was
like it cost $1.99 to check your balance.
I was gonna pay that.
Yeah, before smartphones, I mean, all of that stuff was,
I mean, they were nickel and diamond used
so that to make it inconvenient to use an ATM.
I remember when I was young, there was one ATM in our town,
and it was at the fucking bank.
It's inconvenient to do anything with money here.
It's so inconvenient.
It's so inconvenient.
Using a different ATM, that's not your own bank.
Did you see Apple Pay Cash came out today?
No, I didn't.
You can send money to people directly in I message.
What's that cut?
I don't remember.
I'll have to talk about it.
I usually apples like a third.
But I can't imagine what would be for this.
If they're trying to be with Venmo.
This one place that I went to recently was like super excited because they're like,
we're about to get contactless payment.
And I was like, oh, we have, the UK have had contactless payments since, for like 2010,
or something.
Whenever I go home, I'm like amazed by how much better I look the way that we deal with
money.
Unbelievable how bad it is here.
I hadn't written a check until I moved here.
Yeah, chip.
They almost got chip and pin.
But we got to chip everywhere you go for the pin.
But when we were in London for RTX,
and then when we were in Australia for PACS,
the entire time, I never exchanged money.
Now one time, I just used my phone to pay for everything
and it was fucking amazing.
Yeah.
It was really cool.
And I came back here and I'm like,
I could use my phone in like four different places.
Yeah.
And then forget all the shit at the store.
I mean, in some places here, they don't want to take your phone.
They want you to use their app, like targets holding up
for contact with payment.
Yeah.
So if you want to pay a target, you have to have their app
and then scan like a barcode.
CVS, I think did that for it when I was CVS?
Or one of those,
one of those,
does phone,
so I don't have a pay.
Okay, so CVS, I think we did it.
I think Walmart also is fighting it.
They want their own like in app scamp thing. Allow it. I think Walmart also is fighting it. They want their own in-app scam thing.
Allow it.
Waterburger heads are on currency.
They also do contact with that.
They also do contact with that.
Everything you hear also asks their own visa card.
Watercoin.
Watercoin.
It's like you should get like,
Taco Bell Visa.
Right.
I get benefits.
Would you all not have that in the UK?
Well, if you can control the money,
you make a lot of money controlling money.
You can get an Uber visa card.
Yeah, different benefit.
I mean, we're joking,
but we all have American Express credit cards, right?
I do.
I'm American Express, American Airlines.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I'm completely my middle card today.
You know what I really hate?
I can't thin this.
And I'm gonna complain to you, Ellie,
because I'm gonna complain about them.
Interesting.
And I don't wanna do it directly to them.
Okay.
Like, if I was sending you this in text, guys,
I can I leave for like a minute?
No exes.
No kisses.
So there's a thing that keeps happening to me
with these two in particular,
where I will find out something cool.
Yeah.
I will tell them and they will immediately go,
I don't need that.
But they discovered it themselves and didn't tell me about it.
And they knew I would like it.
Like, I went out to.
Wow.
About friends. Lunch with a friend the other day,
and she pulled out, she wanted to pay for lunch,
she pulled out an amex, and it was a metal amex.
Like the amex car was metal.
That's the coolest thing I've ever seen in my life.
So I told the gust about it,
I guess, oh yeah, I know.
And he sent me a link immediately.
He hears that I'll apply for it in five minutes.
It's like, I said, I said, thanks for reminding me.
I forgot about it.
I had not applied for the, for the metal one yet myself either.
You know, and I did it at that moment.
You know coins a medal.
It does already metal money.
I know, but it's neat to have a metal credit card.
Why is that neat?
It's different.
I just kinda thought it was kink.
Yeah, it was pretty cool.
Also, you're not gonna apply for credit card
just because it's metal, right?
But I think he's super word.
Maybe not.
It's super word.
It's like, well with me, it's a card I already owned.
It was just a matter of telling them,
hey, send me the metal one.
Oh, okay.
So you don't have an ally specific one?
I do.
Okay.
But it's, I've got a lot.
I'm an American, I've got a ton of them.
So when you pay all these fees for all these cards?
Yeah.
Damn.
Well, not all the cards have fees.
Some do some don't.
This one out of fee.
This one, this one, this one sizable fee.
Every card has advantages and disadvantages.
The metal card fee.
Well, all I know is the new tax plan is going into effect.
This is a tax plan that was just voted for.
Not yet.
So it's not for 2017.
This is 2018.
Well, the Senate approved it.
The House versions are different.
Now they have to do reconciliation.
Well, they got to try to put the final.
It was handwritten.
Yeah.
But the final actual plan will be and then vote on that.
No. As long as the private jet thing will be and then vote on that. No.
As long as the private jet thing stays in there,
I'll be happy.
If that goes through, the tax bill goes through,
I'm gonna crowdsource a private jet
with fractional ownership.
You would lose money if you didn't.
What?
Yeah, why would I leave money on the table, guys?
It's clearly we're in the private jet era.
Now, where you have to have private jet.
That was the most disgusting thing
in that whole attack. The most disgusting thing was the handwritten shit
and like the stuff that was xed out.
I don't know man.
Taking away cancer treatment from Medicare.
How about that?
Hey, it's just like, you can make arguments
as to why they don't pay for things for some people,
but they're literally putting things in.
It's like, we know only rich people have private jets.
There's no other kind of a private jet.
Like I feel that this pack of things is a little more evil. Like it's just, we know only rich people have private jets. There's no other kind of a private jet. I feel that this tax on these a little more evil.
Like it's just not evil enough.
Let's put in like some drilling.
Right.
Let's put in a couple more like cute little fun things
for super rich people.
Like tax breaks for burning down forests.
Take out that healthcare.
Like they don't need it.
It's just like, I don't know,
some of the private jet thing to me was,
everyone has their own particular thing
that they found the most egregious.
To me, the private jet thing is like,
just at least try to fool us.
Leave that out.
Like somebody in the room should go,
hey, what are we doing?
Get this outta here.
Don't put that in there.
No, but they were like,
yeah.
You see the tweet that Billy Eichner had about it?
No, that's my favorite.
Yeah, he said,
thank you to all the working class Trump voters
who will get crushed by the new tax bill,
but whose vote just bought me a new swimming pool.
Right. You're all welcome to come over and use it.
Warning, there are a lot of gay guys in the pool.
Ha ha ha.
Like the, the, the,
if there's just a weird disconnect going on there.
Well, we do get shit sometimes
for bringing political stuff.
I'm gonna fuck it.
You know, but I do think it's just
when you point out in this case where people were telling
as they always do and celebrities tweet about stuff,
not that we're celebrities, but people on Twitter.
There's a couple of celebrities I follow that are,
you know, anytime Trump makes a move, they tweet about it.
And that's how I don't follow Donald Trump on Twitter,
but I know everything he does
because of these people that I follow.
Why don't you follow?
I don't know, I just don't follow.
What do I mean, when we get to sit there
and read all those tweets?
I normally, what could?
I don't know what I'm getting out of that. I mean, when we get to sit there and read all those tweets, I normally, what could?
I don't know what I'm getting at at that.
I just never thought to do it.
Oh, I still feel like this.
I didn't follow Barack Obama either.
And I like Obama.
Well, that whole thing happened where like a bunch of people
myself included found out that even though I didn't
directly follow him on Twitter, I was signed up to follow him.
Like I was signed up to follow POTUS and first lady.
I don't know, it was like a thing that happened
to the bunch of- I think your green card. Maybe. Do you follow the queen? Did she have a Twitter. I don't know. It was like a thing that happened. I think there's a green card. Maybe. Do you follow the queen?
Did she have a Twitter? I don't know. I don't know. I follow the whole family.
Like Kensington. I think it's called Kensington Palace.
Like let's say they put this tax plan through where it was big reduction of taxes.
When people are saying big reductions of taxes for the upper class and high income earners.
If they put out the entire tax plan with all the handwritten notes and everything,
but at the end, they wrote X, would you guys have been okay with it?
Would that have been, I mean, it'd be, it'd be less aggressive for sure.
It would, it would soften the blow.
Yeah.
You'd be like, what the fuck?
Oh, that is nice.
That is nice.
But still, ah.
It's really bad for self-employed people, right?
In terms of like being able to expense certain things.
Self-employed by not entrepreneurs.
Like the big thing that,
the big thing that the current Republican Party focuses on
are this like middle class group of business owners,
which I don't know.
Like I think it's one of these overinflated groups of people
that they think is like everyone's a middle class business owner.
And so they always use this person as an example of,
who the, this is who it's helping.
It's helping people who are starting a business
and doing these things.
It's like, and I was a middle class business owner
at one point in my life, you know,
and I just, you know, the normal tax breaks you get
from spending money and investing in your own business.
Those are great. And if the business takes off and then all that money that you invested in the company then comes back to you
It comes back as capital gains, which is like the greatest thing ever. You don't get taxed normal income
You just get taxed the capital gains which I know people philosophically have a problem with because like well
I've already made this money and I'm investing it so I shouldn't be taxed on that
It you're not taxing addition to your income tax,
you're just taxed separately.
Yeah.
And it's just like, it's still new money.
It's still money that you're making.
You actually spent less effort to make this money
than you made other than you're getting taxed away less on it.
So typically, it depends on what you're earning
at that point in time in your life, but yeah, anyway.
So.
It's a suck fast.
It still is.
Taxes in general are just, they're,
it seems like it's overly complicated. I will say this
Why can't we just break it down? I will say this though
I there is a post like it happens on a regular basis on Reddit with a compare an American bill
At a hospital, right?
It's just went up on Reddit. Here's what it cost to have a baby in America versus what it costs to have a baby in Sweden
It's like it costs 200 crore or whatever in Sweden
45 times a couple sandwiches couple sandwiches 200 crore to have the baby and in the US it costs 32 crore or whatever in Sweden. 45,000. Couple sandwiches. Couple sandwiches.
200 crore to have the baby.
And in the US it costs $32,000.
Oh my gosh.
How?
Well I get it but it's like the Swedish bill's wrong.
It's like it's not 200 crore because you've been paying
the money all along.
Simply with NHS.
Yeah.
Well you're saying that because you pay,
because your taxes go into the NHS or wherever you,
if you have that kind of healthcare
that actually it's incorrectly reflected.
I'm saying that if you just hold up a $200 bill and a $32,000 bill, that is not apples to apples.
That is an apple to apples, it's true. But it's not like the US is paying drastically less tax
than someone in the UK. We are now.
The bad tax loss.
In the Sweden comparison, I think the US does
play significantly less checks than Sweden.
I don't think we'll live in,
I think they pay like 60% income tax.
I don't think, like my move to from the UK to the US,
like I didn't feel that my taxes are drastically lower
or higher here.
Well, you need to make millions of more dollars
and get a private jet.
Ellie, that's the solution.
And then I can have my baby on a private jet in like neutral airspace.
And then no one cares, right?
You'll write the income tax, Jack, you'll write to the internal revenue service.
Cool, X and the memo.
That's it.
Everyone will be happy.
Oh, man, I think like I, when I moved back from, when I lived in Thailand for a short
amount of time and I moved back, I had, I was working at the Olympics and I had such a
bad kidney infection, I ended up having to go to the hospital.
I was in hospital for about a week and all kinds of tests and antibiotics and obviously fed and everything.
I walked out without the idea of having to pay a pound.
To my friends at the time, I was just like, oh my gosh, if that happened to me now, I would be ruined.
I would be paying that off for years.
No.
And that's the thing.
And I'm not gonna argue one system is better than the other,
but I don't think people should be bankrupted for life
because they had a medical emergency.
Oh, they had a baby.
Like it's insane.
And like the idea, yeah, like the idea that that is something
that you would have to live in fear of is insane to me.
Or you're getting ill.
It's a healthy fear. Yeah. Do you guys have that living in the US? Because you live in fear of is insane to me. Are you kidding me? It's a healthy fear.
Do you guys have that living in the US?
Because you live in the US.
Well, not because thanks to this wonderful place that I work, I have you guys provide
incredible healthcare.
But like, if, you know, I don't know plenty of people in this town who, who, who, um,
are work free, so whatever, and have to pay for their own healthcare.
And it's like they can, they have to get the, like, minimum that they can.
And like, still, if they were to break a bone, something, they would be fucked.
Like, and that's really scary place. It is. Like's really scary places. Like if I can't do something that like in if I'm in any way in kind of in danger that's something I had to think about in the back of my head
that if I if I get injured or if I get ill. That's going to be a terrible time for me for possibly
years. It seems like basic human compassion. I know that's a weird thing coming from me.
It seems like basic human compassion. I know that's a weird thing coming from me
To not want anyone to be ruined by
You want people to be healthy. Yeah, just a little gash in my leg was literally thousands of dollars There you go, but in England I got my nuts set cut open and when I
Oh, if I tell you that
But yeah, at the end, they're just like, thanks.
So I named me, you got a UK address.
Take care of yourself.
And I just walked out without doing anything.
Yeah, and people tell horror stories,
like of like, oh, the NHS, it's like an abandoned witch house
and you go in and they feed you maggots
and it's like the most awful thing ever
and they put leeches on your wounds
and it's obviously not the case.
I'm like, yeah, it doesn't look like a five star hotel inside.
Sure.
But it's not like terrifying.
It's a hospital.
I don't know, it gets me.
That's like my main grievance
of living in America.
But for every head of the country,
it would have shit.
Have you had to have any health care
while you've been in the US?
Yeah, yeah.
I've had to have like, I was hospitalized
for I had a really deep cut and like,
I had this, because I go scuba diving quite a lot,
and a lot of the time if you get a cut
when you're scuba diving, it's, no.
But it's gonna get infected.
So I came back from scuba diving and had like,
that's the thing by the way.
Bad infected cut.
Yeah, I didn't know this was a thing.
And it was like hundreds of dollars.
Yeah, the ocean's dirty.
We dump all our sewage and garbage in.
Plus what you're getting caught on is typically living.
Well, yeah, because if you scratch yourself on coral,
like that's a bacteria, it's made out of like living bacteria.
And so that gets inside of your body.
It's not good bacteria like a yakal.
It's not like a yakal.
No, no.
I cut my finger accidentally swiped when I was swimming.
When you're swimming in us or scuba diving in us, right?
I was going, I, what?
Scuba diving.
I accidentally swiped from my gloves in a water.
Well, it's a whole thing.
It would be, yeah.
There's so much stuff in scuba diving.
You're already so loaded down.
It's hard to believe you would need anything else.
Yeah, just like the same fabric as a wetsuit.
Yeah, but if, like,
You can't get near-pre-wagging,
but it's really cold,
but like this, like, you, you kind of need your hands.
You need them to see.
How else are you gonna wrestle like a sea turtle
if you don't have it?
What are you doing with your hands?
Well, you just, I don't know,
you're, like, you definitely, I don't know,
for my experience,
swimming with gloves on feels weird.
It would feel really weird.
But I was like, taking a nap.
I'm with you, Gav.
I think it's like a no-brainer.
I mean, swimming that deep shoulder is quite weird.
So, if you're in latex gloves, you're in like,
neoprene, like the rest of the suit.
Tell you what, because you're relying so much on like,
tubes and equipment to breathe,
that you want to know that you have full access
and that you're not like floundering in,
because it is not, especially especially in like neoprene gloves
You would not have mobility that you have without and you want to be able to like I know that I have full access to these equipment that keeps me alive
So I try and be pressing a button, but you've got kind of restricted mobility or whatever that's gonna like help you breathe
I'm about with just one of these
Well, usually you'd be in a situation
and then like help you bring about just one of these.
Well, usually you'd be in a situation. You're trying to like work out a crimson
that's gonna help you.
I like that Bernie says swimming with gloves is weird,
but being alive underwater isn't weird.
It's so weird.
Your body does tell you you are doing
the wrong thing right now.
When you're like five meters down.
The wrong way up, but you're like,
man, do my hands feel weird.
You Gavin and you'll love,
you'll love the most annoying part of the scuba diving setup
as they put all this heavy stuff on you.
Gaps.
But then the buoyancy of it,
is works the opposite way, when you're in the water.
So you're wearing all this heavy shit.
And then when the last thing to do is they strap this enormously heavy weight belt on you,
which is just lead weights on a belt.
And so that you can sink when you have an air tank
on your back.
The whole thing is, every step of the way
is like two foot one step.
Chain male gloves.
Protect your skin and heavy as hell.
Like sink.
I got a heavy blanket.
We'll test it.
A heavy blanket.
Oh, I want one of those.
I got a heavy blanket.
You want me to bring it in so you can try it.
So great.
Can I try it on your couch?
Can you get a little nap?
Yeah, I'm actually, I should, I was gonna bring it in to the can try it. So great. Can I try it on your couch to get a little nap? Yeah, I'm actually, I should,
I was gonna bring it in to the class.
I've been looking at those.
Yeah, did you see the one on Facebook
that they keep advertising?
No, I don't get your ads.
There's one on Facebook that keep advertising
and if you click on the comments,
what's the point of it?
It makes it like,
parents used to calm anxiety
because it's got like,
it's actually weighted blank.
It's like a thunder jacket for humans.
For 25 pound blanket.
Yeah, I just have someone pull my scruff.
They put a paper clip on the back of your neck and you just pass out.
It's like, no, it's great.
Once you put it on, it's just, you just, it's like a press-up sleep.
It's not good for claustrophobics.
Yeah, but I would sleep, I would sleep in a bed that had a lid.
Yeah, I'm real.
I'm real, I'm real. Yeah. As long as I can stretch my legs sleep, I would sleep in a bed that had a lid. Yeah, that's coughing. I'm the opposite of what's perfect.
Yeah.
As long as I can stretch my legs out, I'm good.
Like, if I was crushing a box in my limbs,
we're all bent, I'd freak out, probably.
But if I was in a flat coffin, I could stretch out.
I'm good.
See, I'm still the opposite.
I like smaller spaces.
Even when I design work areas for myself,
I would love to work where my computer is here.
I have a little desk area to the right and then it's just a wall.
A little bit of a booth.
You should work in a bus.
I said, the bus is great for that.
One of the weirdest experiences I ever had was the first time we went to Melbourne
Gus and I think you were with me with the Australian Center for the moving image
to show something.
And we stayed in a hotel that was on Flanders Street
and it was a hotel, the rooms we stayed in were,
they had taken the ballroom
and they had sectioned it off into a hotel room.
So each had like a section of the ballroom.
Yeah, the old, and so the walls and the ceiling
were really amazing.
What the crazy thing was,
the ceiling was like 25 feet away.
So when you're laying in your bed and you're looking up,
it gave me vertigo looking up and laying in bed.
And I couldn't stand it.
It'd be like just before you hit light speed
and all the stars straight ahead.
Yeah.
I'm like, I'm gonna block you for this.
You were long looking up.
That's the hotel where I got stuck in the elevator.
Was it really?
Did it ever really high ceiling?
No, it was a shitty little elevator.
Couldn't.
Did you go out the hatch?
No, I'm looking for excuse to go out the hatch
every time I'm in an elevator.
If it ever stopped, I'd be out the hatching too,
so you never been in a special elevator.
Yeah, I don't think so.
That's the most dangerous place to be, isn't it?
Because it's not actually like,
there's way less chance of an elevator falling.
There's actually way more chance of it going too far
to smash me into the ceiling.
Yeah, right.
You just drop through the hole, you just sleep back in the hole.
The hole?
Every other person hatching a hole? Well, when you're on top of the elevator, just dropped through the hole. You just sleep back in the hole. The hole? Every other person has a hatch in a hole?
Well, when you're on top of the elevator,
the hatch becomes the hole.
The hatch becomes the hole once you get a bump.
You get you, I get you.
It's perspective.
Yeah, you just dropped through that, the hatch hole.
Well, yeah, if you're like nimble bodied.
Listen, there's no way I'm getting up
through a hatch with no ladder.
Anyway, what do you think?
Do you think, there's a scene, I think it was in the mummy,
he hold a mummy returns or something,
but Brenn phrase, he rips off a manhole cover
and then just jumps up in the air and like goes,
boom, like through.
And I always thought, that's a really impressive stunt.
It's way more impressive than it looks.
It is, you just like jumps up and goes,
it's like if you banged your elbow,
it would like not do that on the other side.
It would hurt so, I really meant.
And I thought, take the extra time, bend down,
and climb down.
Just kidding.
Because doing that is so risky.
It is.
I would never do that.
He reminds me of.
He reminds me of Gavin had a bet with me one time.
We had a rental car and we opened the passenger door.
Oh God.
And he said, I want you to jump into the passenger seat.
Just take a running start and you're not allowed to touch the car at all. You just have to get into the passenger seat. Just take a running start and you're not allowed
to touch the car at all.
You just have to get into the passenger.
So you can leap in sideways like this.
Oh my God.
I basically have to run sideways like a crab,
jump, assume the seat in position mid air
and then sit and land perfectly.
So you can't have a seat.
A hands-free car entry.
But it sounds so easy.
Yeah, no, it doesn't.
It's not as quick free in a way. He was like easy, easy, easy, doesn't. He was put free in a way.
He was like easy, easy peasy.
I didn't even really get a chance to explain all the rules.
He was already running.
He jumps, batches his arm on the top of the car
and then lands down and like batches his other arm on the floor.
It was just, it was like you got hit by a car.
I made this, it was fucked.
And that's the thing that's on the website.
Isn't that my bin?
Archie Life, it was a weird window of Archie Life
where I couldn't put them on YouTube
but they were on the website.
All right.
It does some, yeah.
It was probably on receipt.
hilarious.
To me.
Yeah.
Here, I want to read this other thing.
I would tell you I got the hash by the way.
Just to be clear, if you're ever in an elevator with me.
Hatch.
And if you're not following me, I go. Let's go out the hatch.
Oh my God, what a dream.

Inclusive.
Everyone.
I think you're text.
Did you?
I said, I sent LA text.
I just said text right now.
You see, he's like me?
Yeah, I don't get it.
You don't get it.
I don't get it.
Maybe you're on that weird,
I message problem still.
Oh, it's still sending.
Yeah.
It's my problem.
No, it's your problem.
What, what am I doing?
Come on, you got two bars.
Go through.
I got it.
You got it?
You like that?
You got two bars of Wi-Fi?
Two, but no, I'm not a Wi-Fi.
I never get a Wi-Fi.
Wi-Fi is garbage.
Yeah.
Says the guy who's complaining that his text message
is taking forever to send it.
That's true.
I am.
Oh, it says Wi-Fi in the bus.
I was, there is very little Wi-Fi in the bus.
It's like a trickle and it's awful.
But the Intercom also doesn't reach the bus.
We have a three-part Intercom system,
but it won't reach all the way out to the bus.
Can you set up like other repeaters along the way?
I don't think that's even a first, like, but 1% problem.
We could put one on Gavin's desk.
Oh, then you can relay.
Because it's halfway between us, and then you could have a separate intercom
to talk to me and the bus.
You could relay messages from Ellen.
Why don't we just get a load of string?
I don't know, do you like a desk?
I was that's an A-Lot.
Yeah, so you could potentially relay some messages.
Do you know what my desk is?
I in that dark, dark room.
Sure.
It's in the achievement hunter place.
Yeah, isn't it?
Yeah.
I was just at home.
It's what, it's both.
Okay, it's the same desk,
where you just do even do.
No, I have to desk.
One's very much tied in the other.
Yeah, I think you're in a cheap and hard office
that would make sense, because that's where you were.
Have you ever been in there?
Once.
It was not a franny reception.
Did you open the door and everyone turned it lucky?
Everyone's like, we're recording.
And I was like, okay, I just needed to be in there,
like come back later.
Was it?
We have a light for that though.
We have a bit on air, light.
Yeah, I didn't see that.
The old one always turned it on or off though. It was definitely my fault. I feel guilty about something when it comes to visiting a cheap for that though. We have a bit on air like. Yeah, I didn't see that. Y'all don't always turn it on or off though.
It's definitely my fault.
I feel guilty about something when it comes to visiting
achievement hunter or.
Did you just reach the nuts that weren't there?
I know I was I was I was contemplating taking some of the
salt off the bottom and you get that I realize it's like
five days old.
You'll better than that.
I'm better than that.
I'm better than that.
Right Gavin.
Salt is way older than five days.
What?
Salt is ancient.
I just true.
It is true.
So I can preserve things in salt. I can fear feel ready to go eat this, but it's also the
gamy bottom of the thing salt where everyone's.
Everyone's finger gams and juice dust.
Yeah, it's the flickering there. So the little nugs when I go into achievement
hunter. And whenever I walk by the off topic, set, I think that Jeremy hasn't
learned yet that you guys don't want me around.
Cause he's always very gracious
and he's always like,
I've got this really nice big greeting for me.
I'm like, this is too much Jeremy.
He's like, hey, come on over here and talk.
I'm like, no, they don't know.
I don't know why I'll do that when you come in.
You will, I gave you a drink.
So that was a little biased.
Yeah.
I was like, hey, cause I was giving you a drink.
Hey, it's a good drink, isn't it?
It's fantastic.
How to heal.
Yeah, I just had one.
I just wish I could pronounce it.
God heal.
God heal.
What?
That was wrong with that.
It's easy.
Did you, did you hear about that Uber hack that they went that they covered up?
Yeah, they covered up.
Like 100K on cover now.
That was the crazy part.
I didn't realize that.
They paid the hackers hush money.
That was the headline.
They didn't.
I mean, for me, I did the headline was just,
you know, 57 million people's information was stolen.
They're like, hey, 57 million people,
do you think they'll know this?
Yeah.
They paid them $100,000 to keep quiet and to delete the info.
It's a real win-hackers.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I can't believe it.
So yeah, they had to let go of their chief security officer as a win of hackers. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I can't believe it. So yeah, they have to let go of their
chief security officer as a result of it.
Some bags.
At least they let go of the top person.
Yeah, as the names, email addresses,
and phone numbers of 50 million Uber riders around the world.
And the personal information of 7 million drivers
was accessed.
Can you fake name, will that shit?
You can't with Uber can you?
Why not? If you're driving if you're riding you can.
Then like check up on you. It doesn't have to match like the credit card on
file or anything. Can you make can you get a credit card without your name on?
You can buy like a prepaid visa card or something like that.
But could you could like can my name on my credit card just be X?
No.
that. But could you could like, could my name on my credit card just be X? No. No. Mr. X. Not even a Mr. X. Oh, just X. Yeah.
It's like, is it 10? Is it X? You don't know. You don't know. I don't know. I really don't
know. I may have a way to look up the other day. Do you know the Roman New World for 500?
Uh, anybody? See is no else 50. 50 M is 1000 see us 100 D
Let me think about this. What do you think about this?
M is a thousand. Yeah, C is a hundred. I think Gavin's right. I think it might be D
And that's
What no, so L is more or less
No, L 50 I can say I don't know, honestly, I don't know.
We won't know until Super Bowl 500.
It is D.
It's a, yeah.
Yeah, right, yeah.
You can go.
500, 1000.
I've never thought about it.
It's a million, right?
Certainly.
Yeah, it's like, we wouldn't be five C's since we were talking about
what we were talking about.
I'll be honest with you, I have no idea if I knew that or if I guess.
It felt right to say D, absolutely very memory-
We knew it from school way back in the day and it surfaced.
Yeah, you just go with your gut sometimes
to be like, that's it, say it with confidence.
Cause some letters you look at and it's like,
that could be Roman.
Yeah.
Like, if you're ever gonna try something
like a physical accuracy thing.
I'm pretty sure there's no J in numbers.
You don't know, maybe.
Julius Caesar, that seems like we were usually like to J. Well J was the last letter right? I like to J
Wasn't J the last one they threw in I don't know. It's not really common one. It's worth it. It's worth a little bit in scrabble
Well, what the last of the in the Arabic?
What look alphabet is every time I Arabic
Roman
I just say the Arabic alphabet is'm saying it's an R alphabet.
Jay was the last one out of it.
Oh, it was the last alphabet.
You know, like the...
Wasn't it?
Oh yeah, because I guess I have no idea.
I have no idea.
You got Google.
What am I going to Google?
What was the last letter?
Yeah.
What am I going to write my card?
R alphabet, the Arabic alphabet.
Isn't that what it's called?
Yeah. So when I look at Arabic alphabet. Isn't that what it's called? Yeah.
So when I look up Arabic alphabet.
It's the Arabic character set.
Is it?
I'm never heard of this.
Really?
Yeah, I seem to.
It was just Raymond.
Yeah.
That's right.
When I look up Arabic alphabet, I just get like modern Arabic.
Like the scripted.
That might be something they taught in like the early days
and they don't teach anymore.
That's really weird.
Because I've never known it as anything else. So what is the American alphabet called? That might be something they taught in like the early eighties and they don't teach anymore. That's really weird because I
I've never known it as anything else. So what is the American alphabet called?
English alphabet. Yeah, what is the English?
English alphabet
I got your back. Speaking of the American. I
Thought it was the Arabic character set me too
So I'm gonna say explain this to us why Gus and I both think it's called Arabic
Twitter hashtag RT podcast.
Do it.
What is that happening?
So when we got Xbox One 10s, when we got, when we got those, we got them from Microsoft
and they came.
The first of all, it was so fucking cool to get a console and have Microsoft send me a
console.
That was fucking incredible.
But then on top of that, they sent me a stack, like 20 of triple A new release game.
Someone come out yet at the time.
Yeah, like World War II and battlefront,
they come out yet.
That's pretty cool.
And normally when I get this stuff,
honestly, I give most of it I give to somebody in the office.
Like I just gave Colton,
they sent me a 10 year anniversary for BioShock,
with like a statue and everything. And Colton was a huge year anniversary for BioShock, with a statue and everything.
And Colton was a huge, apparently, a BioShock fan.
Big BioShock baby.
He was very appreciative of it, which I said, no problem.
Oh, yes.
Yes, sure.
But so on Twitter, I said, I've got all these codes,
and I have a lot of these games,
but I think I'll just give one of these away every day
in December until they're all gone.
And I immediately regretted doing that.
Because now my reply just that.
Give me it.
Give me.
So I did, I posted one, I posted a Assassin's Creed Origins
last night, fucking great game by the way.
I posted that one last night, somebody got it,
and then I deleted the post with it.
But I left the original one saying
I had these things I was gonna give him away at one a day on Twitter. So now people are all like jokin, just give me that one last night, somebody got it, and then I deleted the post with it. But I left the original one saying I had these things that was gonna give him away
at one a day on Twitter.
So now people are all like jocke and just give me that one.
All I want is this one, just give it to me.
And I'm like, and the book is like a thousand of these messages.
I did the same thing on Snapchat, and it just evolved too.
I want this, I want that.
Give me this, give me that.
I think I'm just gonna do it on my Instagram story.
Man, that's it, because I guess you can reply
on Instagram story, but I know,
they're not like in the middle of my main.
How are you doing is it like first come first served?
Or, so once you use the code, it's gone.
Right, so how are you giving it away?
You just post a picture of it.
Oh wow.
And then whoever types it in really fast.
So people just kind of aren't understanding
that it's not like,
I don't like giving it away.
I will give you this.
I've never done them.
I've never done them either.
And now I'm instantly regretting doing it.
I don't like, I don't like giving stuff to people, but in like a public format, I think it's weird.
Yeah.
Well, I think I have these things that I should just give them to people.
I don't, I probably should just give them to people in the office, but it just seems like
I got this because of research.
I think it is.
So now I'll give it to people who follow research.
Or it's private DM someone like, hey, do you have this game?
It's a good.
But like doing it out to everyone is like, but I just got to take a picture once a day.
It's like a fun thing in December kind of like give back in December
Yeah, it's like in the spirit of giving and everything like that. So happy holidays. That's how I thought it happy
Hellicates Arabic numbers
Arabic numbers. These Arabic math
Got it. Okay, and Latin character set so it's confusing the two layers. We both work
Yeah, it's obviously the war on Christmas has extended now to our alphabet. So who's calendar to use?
Uh, I don't know.
It's I chime on the Chinese news at this point.
Julian, is that the new over calendar?
I see.
That was Gregorian.
Is it Gregorian?
I think a groin is a whole world.
Julian replaced Gregorian.
Yeah.
Shit.
That's what I think.
Am I using the old calendar?
I use the Babylonian one.
I'm not a little bit.
Wait, what have you been in for last?
What for?
Been killing goats.
That's what I've been doing.
Sacrificing.
Burnt offerings to the gods.
That's what I've been doing.
All right.
Every Saturday.
I'm not.
I still want to find people that worship the Greek gods.
Like they are.
They're all the same.
They're all the...
The Gregorian calendar did replace the Greek calendar.
I want to go to one of those churches. Oh, so we got it. The Gregorian calendar did replace. I want to go to one of those churches.
So we got it with the record.
The Gregorian calendar replaced the Julian calendar.
Hell yeah.
Mon calendar for me.
Mega cheer, you're all so eight.
So it's funny.
You say that.
I finally watched Thor Ragnarok.
And I was wondering like, who was it?
You know, when they were making this comic that was like, yeah, you know, that Norse god,
let's make him a superhero.
And let's make a comic about Thor.
Oh, I know. And Odin and Loki and take all these, this let's make a comic about Thor. Oh, I know.
And Odin and Loki and take all these, this mythology
and make a comic book out of it.
Was it an effort to make it more educational?
And I don't know what the attitude is towards Thor
among all the other superheroes.
We've talked about this, I'm sure,
in previous discussions of Avengers movies.
But in Avengers, correct me if I'm wrong, unlimited, which was a retelling of the Avengers story, like
a reboot of the world, Thor was presented in a really, really interesting way, where nobody
else encountered Loki but Thor.
And everyone just thought Thor was fucking crazy, and he had stolen this technology, this
vest he had with the circles, which gave him the ability to channel lightning,
and the hammer that he had stolen it from this technology company,
and his brother was like setting him up,
and like everyone just thought Thor was nuts.
And in the Avengers movies,
in particular Tony Stark has this existential crisis
and panic over the fact that he's seen aliens.
But nobody is like, oh, we just met a God
that confirms there's an afterlife.
You know, it's almost like, kind of takes a lot off the table
of, okay, well, let's just try our best with these aliens,
but if we die, there's still clearly an afterlife
because he was like, God, right here.
If you had here, like, yeah, they might not be
a God whose afterlife you can get into.
Right.
I would convert immediately to him.
But it doesn't feel like it doesn't feel like a religion, it just feels like law like myth.
Yeah, they don't play that in the movies. I feel like in the movie, he's like almost like an eight.
And then they say he's the God of lightning or the God of thunder,
but it's like, ask guards a planet.
Right. Right.
You know, it's not like another plane of a realm.
It's a realm, you know, it's not like another plane of it. It's a rail, right? It's a rail, yeah. So like when Thor comes to this world, he's more of a superhero, he's not actually like
a god, but when he's an Asgard, it's like, yes, this is how everything works here.
And that's normal.
In the same place.
Why, if I didn't mention how far the planet, the Asgard is on, is from us.
I think it's the dimensional thing, isn't it?
Isn't it?
It's not in the same universe.
They got to take the rainbow bridge to get there. I don't, dude, I don't know. I think it's the dimensional thing, isn't it? That's not in the same universe.
They gotta take the rainbow bridge to get there.
I don't, dude, I don't know.
You can't even see it in the same universe
because they say that.
Could you get on a ship and fly to Asgard?
And on Ragnarok, they say that the place that they're at
is on the opposite end of the universe.
They could go to this other place
and it would take them 18 months to get to Asgard.
Oh, how does the universe have the end? How does that have an end?
Does that mean they've mapped the whole universe
if it's on the other end of the universe?
Yeah, but then there's a couple more universes
after the credits.
They just stick them in.
All I know is that if Jetly kills himself
in enough places, he becomes really powerful.
The premise for that was actually really cool.
Yeah, I really liked the premise for that movie.
I don't think I've ever seen it.
The one. The one, yeah. It's a really great idea. That guy is going around killing the
intermittent interdimensional versions of himself. And the guy who's not doing it is getting stronger.
Equally becoming as powerful as this other guy. It's a great concept. It's a really great concept.
I think they should remake it. It was kind of ahead of its time in that the CG looks real shit.
that the CG looks real shit. And it's a decent story.
It was all right.
Where is Asgard?
It's wherever they say it is.
All right.
It's not really, you know,
it doesn't have to be one specific rock.
It's where the people are.
It used to exist in another dimensional plane
where the matter is denser and more durable
than the world of midguard.
So it's like the Superman crap.
And it's a place where God's dwell.
First appearance was in journey into mystery.
I'm pretty sure Asgard was referred to before
journey into mystery number 85.
Pretty sure.
Asgard is a small planetary body that serves
as the home to the North Gods, such as Thor
and their ruler Odin.
So it's interesting, like a God.
Is a Hime Dallet also a God god or is he just a guy on the gate?
Yeah, but he's a god.
Yeah, they're all gods.
I think it's a similar premise of Mount Olympus
that they're all gods.
I would watch a movie that was just about Heimdala,
just coming to earth, wreck and shop.
It would be, actually it would be like him
as his Luther character, but he would be a super god.
Ooh, I've just started watching Luther.
You've seen Luther? I've just started watching Luther. You seen Luther?
I've just started watching the first.
Where are you up to?
Just like when like episode five and series one, where suddenly everything, all the shit
goes down.
She goes down phenomenal show.
So good.
I don't know.
I think it was like six episodes, four episodes, four episodes, two episodes.
Yeah.
Like season four is just two episodes.
And it's, but it just gets more and more intense.
So good.
You know, you should watch. Go on.
Gav, you should watch the dark tower.
And I'm recommending that because I fucking hate you.
And I want to be miserable.
Okay.
I watched that movie on a plane,
and I wanted to put a gun in my mouth.
Is that the first thing on the review there?
Is it the first thing Idris Elba has done that isn't good?
Because he does good stuff.
He does a lot of DJing.
That's pretty so. Does he really? Oh, yeah. So I was like, I went to, I'm. Yo, you need. Because he does good stuff. He does a lot of DJing. That's pretty so.
Does he really?
Oh yeah.
So I was like, I went to.
I'm in your uni.
I was in the different.
No, I had to go to, I beat it for this job
that I was working on from Malibu.
And there was this, we like, kind of ended the whole corporate
thing at this party, whatever.
And it was like, Idris Alba is DJing tonight.
And I was like, who asked for that?
Like, he is a beautiful girl.
I'm like, I was there. But he was like, you know, he's like, who wants this?? Like, he is a beautiful girl. I would go. I was there, but he was like, he's a,
who wants this?
I would like to take it, please.
He was like, you know, obviously he's a fantastic actor
and a very beautiful, yeah, there he is.
Yeah, it was so weird.
He was in Prometheus, which a lot of people don't like.
What was the in Prometheus?
Oh, he was the, he was the pre-ship guy.
He was like the ship guy.
He bends the ship and it's human. So I'm sure he's's in Prometheus. Oh, he was the, he was the pre-ship guy. Yeah, he was the pre-ship guy. He bends the ship and the human.
So I'm sure he's been in some bad stuff.
He's so good.
It's really good.
So he's like a cop that sort of plays outside the law.
There's one bit where you've probably seen the episode
where he was like an applying DNA on a crime scene.
If that was the really disturbing one.
And to get the DNA, he is broad daylight,
lamps the guy in the face
And it's a kind of blood off his face and like pulls the glove inside out
And then he's like he just he's walking down an alleyway and this guy's walking towards him
And he just like bang this guy's on the ground. He like uses his glove and just wipes all the blood and shit up his nose
Gloves inside out and puts it in his pocket
Just like there's no DNA in blood.
Where am I here?
Where am I pulling this from?
There's no DNA in blood.
Go on.
Hold on.
You can't follow it, go on with a hold on.
I'm looking up on the internet, which tells me
everything I need to know.
By the way, Interstellable, you cannot blame him
for being in dark tower.
Dark tower is a beloved.
Red blood cells do not have any DNA.
Bank.
As they lose their nuclei, as they mature.
So the DNA in your blood is
In your white blood cells. So there is DNA in your blood. Just not in your red blood. Well, you're not sick
Now you have any white blood cells. You got
But still some time never like on patrol. It's like cops only don't show up
They're all right. They're all in the
They're all the things they're the white blood cells. You think they're working overtime? No way. They kick off at 3 p.m.
They got their test break for their jet.
They're fucking out of here.
They just hit their inner comma,
go red blood cells.
I'm leaving for the day.
Thank you.
They thought you saw a headline on one of those list websites,
but then you didn't actually read.
No DNA in blood.
No DNA in blood.
There's no DNA in red blood cells.
Okay.
How much of the time are you separating your red and white blood?
Also, if he punches the dude in the face,
he's getting more than just blood.
He's getting a little bit to skin and hair and all that in there.
I've seen the CSI, they do a little dust in the fight.
But if you lump someone in the front of the face,
you'll cover it, you call everything.
No, I said, it's saying.
I'm saying, I was bringing up an interesting fact
that there's no DNA and red blood cells.
Red blood cells make up 40 to 45% of your blood.
40 to 45% what's the rest?
I'm looking. Red blood cells and up 40 to 45% of your blood. 40 to 45% what's the rest? I'm looking.
Red blood cells and the platelets.
Water.
I think there's other stuff.
White blood cells, red blood cells are definitely...
White blood cells are 1% of your blood.
Red blood cells are doing all the heavy lifting in blood.
That's why it's red.
There you go.
That is not an interesting fact.
It's a very interesting fact.
Not an interesting fact. Well people think you draw blood, you get DNA. If you break it down far
enough, yeah, there's no DNA in an atom of your body. Go on. Go ahead. If you go small enough,
yeah. When I go to a skin cell. Have you played that game, everything? The cell is a cell. It's
interesting that red blood cells. copper blood loads the DNA.
If you go smaller, maybe not.
But who's getting it?
What's getting into Adam of blood?
Name another cell in the body that doesn't point at me.
Name another cell in the body that doesn't have DNA.
What a brain cell have it?
A P cell?
Is that what you said?
How do you do it?
I pause it.
If you took, if you took,
P cell.
All of the particles,
cell.
All right.
It's about time to wrap it up.
Let's just read it on this.
As you're saying, but it was fucking great in the wire.
I'm still watching the wire.
String your bell.
I sent you that fucking screenshot, matriculating.
Dude, listen, I think you lit wet and looked that up.
I mentioned the store.
I think you looked at our stuff.
No, I was watching that episode that night.
That's not true.
But you could buy this fun house hat or that shirt.
Where's the Bernie hat?
The Bernie hats not here.
Which are actually now starting to sell.
There's another shirt over there you could buy.
There's no more you could buy.
Or everywhere.
All right, store.rsth.com.
We should point out what each time I want things.
It's LA and I are both here, which is in today's's vlog Right now it's that the vlog is ending. Yes. I'm the Bernie's vlog is coming to a close
We're in the last few weeks of it. It'll probably wrap up sometime around the beginning of the year somewhere between that and the middle of January
Is we're gonna wrap up the vlog end of the year the rooster and we don't know what we're gonna do
We'll figure something else out. No, now you won't have to worry about iOS auto-cooking vlog anymore
Do a blog very true to. Do a blog and stuff.
Write down everything you did.
So send all your suggestions for what they should do to you at Bernie.
My iOS also has decided some words that I type are going to be capitalized,
and that's all there is to it. My iOS.
When I sent you the word ragna rock the other day, it made it all capital letters.
Ragna rock. The word song.
I'll be pulling it for my show.
S-O-M-E has a capital S now.
In my phone, and it's not going to let only pulling it from my soul. S-O-M-E has a capital S now in my phone
and it's not gonna let me type it in your way.
No, Apple through the shape, they put a capital B and Xbox
that makes you look an idiot and they do it deliberately.
You and iPhone too.
What?
iPhone's correct.
iPhone does have a capital P.
Xbox does not have a capital P.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
Yeah.
Lowercase X, big case B.
Right.
That makes it sabotage.
Makes it sound like you're an idiot.
That's sabotage.
That is sabotage. That is sabotage.
That's sabotage.
Thanks for watching.
