Next-gen gaming is built with Intel Core i9 processors. Gary Gus. I'm Gavin. I'm Blaine. Um, Barbara. And I'm Jill Gus. I got a text message from my sister earlier today. I guess she hadn't seen a photo of me in a while. And she saw something I'd posted online. She said, what is happening with

your hair? And I said, oh, six months of no haircuts. That's a that's pretty much what's happening with it. That'll do it. Yeah. So I'm just talking, I'm gonna touch a tweet so it's like Gavin the head, no, no. It's like, I'd love to go get a haircut. Yeah. Oh, maybe I'll cut it myself. Maybe I'll make a video out of it.

Fuck it, right? You're gonna make something. Yeah, you gotta promise that at least. If you do do something with it, you have to film it. Do do do. I'm honestly just using this as an opportunity to grow it. Like I've never had like Fabio hair and now is the chance. So I'm just gonna like, what does Kelly think of it?

She hates it. She wants me to cut it constantly. Uh, I don't know. She, her, her, she says quote, this is not the boyfriend I signed up for. This is not the boyfriend I signed up for. But this is not the boyfriend you are looking for. Because before I had like, you know, longish, mediumish length and then just like short on the sides. And that just made me look like older-ish, enhance them.

And then now I just look like a teenager going through my emo phase or something. I don't know. I feel like this is the perfect time to like see how you all would look with really long hair. Like, why not just go the distance at this point and just keep it going? I mean, honestly, it's just like not worth going to the still

to me to go the now. She said, you're not the boyfriend she signed up for. But this is not the world any of us signed up for. We're all in a world of a world of shit we didn't expect. So let's have fun while we can. So for the audience, I feel like I should make a quick note that this is pre-taped. It's holiday in the United States today.

So we are not working today and this is pre-taped. This episode is pre-taped two days after we did the last podcast. And I'm sure, like you guys, nothing has happened in my life in the last uh less than 48 hours I mean it's been 44 hours since we wrapped our last podcast and here we are doing another one something something has happened though something has happened what it's not a hundred degrees outside today

that's true it's beautiful but it is united as fuck yeah it is it's a it's not great. I don't understand humidity fully. What do you mean? I'm like, it's like, are you saying that you'd rather have it be hot but not humid? Absolutely. A hundred percent. Because then it's dry. Yeah, dry heat is so much more tolerable.

I'd rather have dry heat of like 100 degrees than a humid 85. When you still sweat in a high dry heat. No, because then it feels hot, but the humidity is what makes it feel just like it makes your body feel wet and sticky in my mind. Yeah, it's that sticky sensation that's the worst. It's like stifling. I could not. I could not.

I'm not by any means saying that I enjoy Florida, but I'm not going to be able to do that. It's that sticky sensation that's the worst. It's like stifling. That could not be the title of this podcast. I'm not, I'm not by any means saying that I enjoy Florida, but whenever I go to Disney World, every time I've gone with a group of friends, they've been like, oh, it's the best, but it's just like, just gonna be sticky and you're gonna be wet because of humidity. And I'm like, I like that. I don't know. I like being like sweaty and like, I don't know. I'm okay with sweaty. I played football growing up as a kid. So like, we were just like in layers and layers and layers of pads and we're just drenched in our own sweat all the time. But to me, I correlate that with hard work and determination. So you feel like you have hard work when you take your trips to Disney World? When I build up a good sweat, that means I've been doing something active

and I feel good about my life. So if you just sat inside all day for eight hours playing a video game and got real sway, would you be like, hell yeah. No, I feel awful. I'm outside and it's nice and sunny, but I feel like a nice drizzle of sweat. Can I get a heat bar?

Yeah, and I get like a breeze come in and it hits that sweat just right. You don't get that in dry heat Barbara. Yeah, you do. Well, to be fair, I sweat in any temperature in any scenario because I'm just a very sweaty person as I've talked about before. I can relate. Yeah. I actually, I don't know if I should be talking about this at this point, but I've been kind of public about, I have a condition called hyper-hydrosis, so like things like my hands just sweat all the time without any influence whatsoever. It's just like, I have overactive sweat glands

essentially in different parts of my body including my hands. I've started looking into a surgery for it at this point. Oh, what do they do? Do they like disconnect some sweat clans? They go in your hand and just cut them. No. I have to read more about it, but there is essentially a nerve.

I think it's like somewhere under your arm, like under your armpit. It's a nerve that they used to sniff or burn to like essentially like disconnect it, but now there's a new process where they just clamp it. So it's technically reversible. So it's like a sweat vasectomy? Essentially, yeah. That's a good way to go. Veswet diminomy.

Veswet to me. I got a poo poo on your parade just for a second, if you'll allow me. Try. That's how Bruce Lee died. He had an extra sweat gland or something, and he had the same condition that you do. And then he got the thing from under his armpit.

And I think he got infected and that's what killed him. Well, millions of people have had the surgery right now. I think it's also been advanced since like a long time. It's been a long time since he passed away. Barbara, I think you and I both know someone who's had this done. If you want to ask me off camera, I can tell you who that is. Yeah, I would love to know. If you want to get their opinion on it? That's corals. Just talk about it.

Go ahead. Well, I guess I didn't realize that would be related to a nerve. Like, is the nerve what's it full? Or is the nerve just a means of fixing the faulty sweat gland? I honestly have no idea. The downside though is this procedure then usually results in something called compensatory sweating, which means a different part of your body will then start to sweat more often than it usually did. Why, you'll do it. Not your googe, but like your back or your legs. You've got to cut another nerve and then you're fine. No, I don't think there's one for that, but

most people who've had it done have said like the extra sweating they get in a different area isn't anything compared to what it was like having your hands sweat profusely. Why is it that bugs you so much about having overly sweaty hands? Is it like the like the like gripping things or is it just the annoyance of potentially not wanting to shake anyone's hand? I mean, let me put it this way. It's literally affected every single aspect of my life. And I don't think there's a way to really describe it unless you've experienced it. I can't type on a keyboard without getting it wet and having it wipe it off. I can't play video games without my finger slipping on controllers.

Meeting someone new and shaking their hand is always embarrassing. High-fiving someone. I didn't want to go into acting when I was in high school because I was scared that I'd have to do a scene where I touch someone or hold someone's hand. It's like every single aspect of my life and every decision I've made thus far has been influenced by the fact that my hands sweat. But things have been new. Guardian back in 2015, she didn't go in for the handshake. She went in for a fist bump. Even though he was really nice and went for a handshake

She said no, I did do that. We'll think about this Barbara every decision you made has gone pretty well for you, right? You've had a you've had a a good life so maybe all of these decisions have been the right decision Yeah, maybe you've been avoiding problems without knowing it You know, I do I do like that Mindset guys that's a good point. Uh, I'm a positive person. Barbara, what if because I like humidity and sweating, you gave your extra sweat clamping to me. And then I can sweat extra, I can sweat for the both of us.

I would happily do that. I have a wish. You wear, I, I guess I have kind of the opposite in just my hands where my hands get uncomfortably hot but remain dry while I'm playing video games. I would pay all the money I have for that. Like I'm not even kidding. Like sometimes in order to make it more comfortable for me to not have like hot dry hands I just have to like hold my own hand for a few minutes to like over activate like to really get it hot and then it starts to like climb up slightly and then it's like it's better.

But having hot dry hands is also quite annoying. I guess that's like, the thing is, like you never know what someone else is going through and like I don't know what that's like and you don't know what this is like and it's like that. I'm sure yours is way worse in terms of how much is affected. Mine barely affects me. I just get just hot.

So my hands, I will, my hands also get pretty sweaty. So it's annoying playing video games, but for me, the most annoying one is driving. Like if I'm holding onto the steering wheel, my hands get really sweaty, so I'll have to kind of like open them a little bit and let the air conditioner hit them. Yeah.

So like, dry them out as I'm driving. So let's see what you guys. Just like slipping a level of plates. Yeah. I'll just hold my hand in front of one of the air vents on like each think about like, you guys. You just like slipping 11 of the plates up like. Yeah. I'll just hold my hand in front of one of the air vents on like each side, like just take turns. But it's like, it literally affects everything. Like even when we do things like RTX or conventions

where I'm on a panel, I'm holding a microphone. Like my hand will just start dripping like this because it's like I'm not necessarily nervous just because my hands are sweaty all the time. So I'll have to like, change hands, wipe it down, hold it with the other one, and then wipe this, take it back, and sometimes wipe the microphone before giving it back to the stage handler. It's just embarrassing, and it sucks, and I used to never, ever, ever talk about it with anybody except my parents, because I was so ashamed of it. But now I'm like, fuck it, I don't care.

It's just, it's accepting you you control. It's, uh, it's involuntary. Yeah. I think it's just the, uh, I guess sweating in general scene is kind of like an unclean or unhealthy thing. Like it's seen as like being dirty or nervous or unclean in some way. Yeah. So it's, it's awkward to talk about in a way where it's like, I sweat and and have zero control over it My best friend growing up had the same thing. I guess it like it affects people's hands a lot more than anywhere else But I used to play squash with him and it was lethal because that racket would fly out of the time so And it yeah, he was the same way where it's like, you know And he never really talked about it until he was,

it is 20s and I was like, that's an interesting, interesting thing to have. I never climbing and lifting weights, all that shit would be extremely dangerous or much more difficult with a sweaty ass hands. I never noticed it was out of the ordinary until like I got my first girlfriend and started holding someone's hand extensively.

And she's like, and then she was like, oh, your hands are gross. Like, oh, I guess they are I never realized people's hands don't sweat all the time like that. Yeah And like you'll notice people too and this is kind of a shitty thing to do And if you're this kind of person and you need to rethink some things But like if you got going to shake someone's hand or high five them or whatever and they have the reaction of just like What's on your hand? Like, you have not like, it makes your heart just sink. And like, they're so often times

where that would happen to me. I'd be like, oh, I just washed my hands in the bathroom. So I'm sorry, I forgot to dry them off. Or I always had excuses like in my back pocket. Don't worry, Barbara. I don't think shaking hands will be coming back anytime soon. Yeah, that's what I love about 14. There's no hands shaking.

Even after this is even went back. Even went back. Yeah, it might be done. Well, I've been talking to, go ahead. I was going to say then why I'll just not get the surgery that my father was going to say, like I'm wondering all of the ways, like long term, five, 10 years down the road, all of the things

that are going to be different, like, like I'm sure masks of the ways, like long term, five, 10 years down the road, all of the things that are gonna be different, like, like I'm sure masks in public are gonna be a total commonplace thing from now on, but like, I wonder if like, this will be the new thing for hand shakes, or if that's gonna like fall apart, not exist. I don't know, like what? Maybe foot shakes now.

Yeah, that would be cool. That'd be cool. You just like, you see somebody and then you just go like, click. I just wish like you could just switch to like a little wave or like a to mean, like we are shaking hands right now. But I've always found shaking hands to be kind of strange, especially when people do it on camera for the sake of like when I was doing that travel show with Dan. And we kept getting staged with our guests. It's like we're just meeting them on camera. So we'd always have to be like,

oh yeah nice to be here. It's like we're not just meeting here. We've already spoken before we started rolling. It feels so weird to be like pretend meeting. So we started making fun of it where Dan would like come in for a handshake from like 10 meters away, like walk with his arm and stretch. And I wouldn't even bother. I'd just be like, because this is just making fun of the whole thing in general. But yeah, it doesn't really make a ton of sense when you think about it.

Next-gen gaming is built with Intel Core i9 processors. What do other cultures do? Do they bow in Japan? Is that how they greet each other? or I-9 processors. Well, what do other cultures do?

Do they bow in Japan, right? Is that how they greet each other? Sure, we could do bowing. Let's do that. Yeah, let's bow. I'm into it. Yeah, that's kind of a great thing. There's a ton of stuff in Japan that makes a lot of sense. Like, correct me if I'm wrong, Gus,

there's a lot of, like, not actually exchanging money hand-to-hand, do you like put money in a tray or you get your change in a tray. And it's like there's very little ever accidentally touching people. We should get rena scoli on the podcast sometime. Oh, I love rain. Yeah, she's she's living in Japan right now. We should, uh, we should invite her on and have her on some time to. That would be amazing. Yeah, to talk about, uh, how things are going in Japan as far as like quarantine and everything over there.

That's a good idea. I'm a genius. There might be something to eliminating something that's so antiquated that you do your right hand specifically because most people wipe their asses with their left. Like when you're factoring in how you wipe your shitty ass, then maybe that's the thing that we should get rid of.

Do most people wipe their ass with the left? I don't know. Show of shitty hands, who wipes their ass? No, I wipe my right hand. I use it with my dominant. Yeah. I don't want to get a gamy wipe. Wait, which way?

Hold on. You don't know what the thing is. Also, I just eliminated the idea of giving him a practice because I Oh shit now my camera is all fucked my god everything's fucked in this well where are you right now well at least you didn't

keep us waiting that long you really had to do setup and and get things ready I think he had a sub technical difficulty so we sat around and I was trying to make him feel bad about it by complaining that he was making us all wait. I am in the process of a move and because of that I'm in a temporary space and I did not think that this temporary space is gonna last as long as it did and I turned on my nice camera and they're like, hey can you get more lighting and I was like sure so then let me let me switch it over. Don't fuck it up. I want so like I had to get like the

most hardcore light. You're shooting up with this and it's like it's fucking bright. So hold on hold on. There you go. Let me show you how bad this is pal Oh, that's in change much at all. No, not real. All right. Well, is that Mike's bright? It is but I don't want to do that because I'm afraid it's gonna like fucking pop a hole through the ceiling or something I'm gonna burn It's like the jet star. You're powering it up. It's hot in here. Well luckily for you You like being sweaty, so it's like you're getting something done. You're feeling accomplished You did it playing nice podcasting so hard

I'm just gonna take my shirt away through I think in podcasting Max gain means something different. Mm-hmm. Shhh. Shhh. So, um... Confusion on your look, on your face was just amazing. So, there's something. I'm a little scared today. Before we started, the podcast Eric told us that he had a game ready for us, but he refused to tell us what it is or give us any details at all.

He said just to let him know when we want to play the game. I feel like I'm in a song movie. So Eric, did you make a guess at what it is? No, I guess. Prawn cocktail, a shrimp cocktail, but he said that was all right. Oh my god. It's probably a trivia game, right? It's got to be. Let's say it's, um,

A trivia game, right? It's gotta be. Let's say it's No, I don't know. I have no idea. What if we also we talked about here? Oh, oh, oh, oh, I know what it is. I know what it is You know what I guess I'm pretty sure I like 99% sure what it is What spoon do you eat this food with? Oh? God, so it's not Dill or no Dill. The name of the game is... Hold on, hold on, hold on. It's better not be some cake or not cake thing because that shit ended it weeks ago. So, awkward if it is. The name of the game is...

What kind of spoon would you use? Oh my god. A third week of content out of this. Roll the intro. What kind of spoon would you use? There's no music. There's a guy saying, what kind of spoon is? There's the voice of that. That was my friend Andrew, because I forgot that this was something that we had talked about in the last podcast. So I made that intro in five minutes and I asked my friend Andrew,

Hey, could you record an intro song? And he said, yeah, I have this electric guitar that I can't plug it into anything. And I said, great. And so we did that. And he did a great job singing the intro for our impress that it wasn't on top of the other three games graphics to be honest. No, this was a different one. If I would have gone to Josie, then it would have been,

but unfortunately, I did not have time because again, I forgot that we were playing what kind of food would you use? But there's no set correct answer apparently for any of this. And that's why we're playing this game today because I want to know what kind of spoon would you use to eat these foods? Because I didn't know what this was.

You guys want to see the intro again? Yeah, yeah, yeah. We really killed it with the PowerPoint. Let me. Thank you. Let's roll that intro. What kind of food would you use? Do you have a V mix muted bling?

I guess so, yeah. So I can't hear it. Yeah, unmuted. Let's play it one more time. I'm probably gonna. You'll be fine. Yeah, watch what he's going to do. Part is he tries to do this.

Don't really. It's his mute site. I don't want a mute site. Oh, yeah, I'm muted. I'm just gonna. Oh, wow, I can hear it. Wow, it sounds so great. Good job.

You had it. You had it. All right. I think Gavin can recreate what it sounded like if you job. You heard it. You heard it. All right. I think Gavin could recreate what it sounded like if you want. Oh, yeah, could you? What kind of spoon do you use? Think, think, think, think, think, think.

That's pretty much it. So it's Caribbean in nature. What kind of a spoon would you use? Are the steel drums that Gavin was replicating? No, it's like, they're talking. And not plugged in electric guitar. You know, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, I was like, god! You can hear Eric though, he's talking to you. I don't want to in him out, I don't know man, let's play the game. So now let's play what kind of spoon would you use? I'm gonna show you a picture of food and you're gonna tell him what kind of spoon you would use to do this food.

Do we get to see the spoons that we can do get options? Oh no, it's just small spoon and big spoon. Oh, you've made this. You've made a stupid game, Eric. You're not taking this seriously. What kind of spoon would you use to eat? I wanted a variety of spoons to choose from like five different spoons. No, there's only two spoons. No, it's big spoon and small spoon But what have you assigned what have you assigned to regular small and big spoon? Oh, no, that's up to you Yeah, let's see him

So our first food is Beans oh small spoon for sure. You're an idiot So our first food is beans. Oh, small spoon for sure. You're an idiot. What, you're gonna put a big spoonful of beans in your mouth? Yeah, because you might have. Well, I mean, I wouldn't really be in beans with a spoon.

If I'm having like a full English, that's a fork and a knife. If I'm having on toast, that's also a fork. The goal when you're eating is not to stuff your mouth as full as possible with food Food in there I am the American here Just in your mouth and then eat it if you're having like a nice full English you want different Flavors on the same bite you want you don't just want only beans

She won different flavors on the same bite you want you don't just want only beans Talking about a fucking full English dude. We're talking about the beans that we're just on the screen No, the name of the game Gus is what kind of spoon would you use? We're not talking about English we're talking about these beans show me the beans again Eric where the beans? I would use a big spoon as well. I would use big spoon. That's a big spoon for me. Shane. Shane. Let's put the beans on screen That's it. Yeah a big tablespoon for that Those are like barbecue beans. That's the kind of shit that you'd make at a campfire Some cowboys not gonna be like, I do the small spoons. We're not talking about cowboys big boy talking about you

You want to get some of the liquid in there too? It's almost like a soup because you like it's not just the beans It's also the liquid that the beans are in so having that bigger Shit. Oh, yeah, that's like what this food is for if you're in a full ball of beans It would take you like 10 minutes to polish that off with a teaspoon Okay, the gold's not too rich. It's not a fucking race. I want to make an adendum I did eat beans today straight out of the can because I am moving and I don't have food readily available And I did use a small spoon. I did use a small spoon. Is that because we're dealing with the width of the can opening Partly that and partly because it was the only food I was about to have for several hours

I still have not eaten since and I wanted to enjoy it and I wanted to draw out the process with the smaller grabbing size with a small spoon So I mean it would normally go big spoon. So apparently, I'm out number three to one on that. You are. Yes. Okay. I just like to point out that I was told that this was a stupid game immediately. And then as soon as I showed the first food, it led to a bevy of argument. So, I just want to say, I don't think it's a dumb game, I think it's a fun game. Thank you, thank you very much. And now, Eric, yeah.

Hold on, get the beans back. You want the beans back? Let's get the beans back, just temporarily. There are the beans, we have the beans ready. What kind of spoon would you use? Me, myself, on the beans? Yes. I use the regular spoon.

You, I, Me myself on the beans. Yes. I use the regular spoon Perfect perfect So now let's go to the next food the next food is Ice cream chocolate ice cream small spoon little spoon Little spoon for this I would say I would still go with the bit the table spoon I'm a little bit cream, small spoon, little spoon. Little spoon for this. I would say I would still go with the table spoon because I'm gonna be eating it out of the pot, probably, not in a bowl.

And if you use a teaspoon, you start slinging tiny chunks of ice cream all over the place. You need like a big. You need like a big spoon. That doesn't happen, that's, that also happens with a big spoon, doesn't it? No, because you got more like more control over your leverage. I understand that, Physic.

Going back to my argument earlier with why the beans today with a small spoon, normally I'd use big spoon, is you want the ice cream to last longer, so you want smaller portion sizes. I was going to say if you use the big spoon to eat the ice cream, you get too much of it, which causes brain freeze. So I do, I love, listen, I've taken on the role of being an American and trying to shovel as much food

into my gut as I possibly can in one bite, but ice cream, yeah, you gotta save it, not get that brain freeze. It's the thing I have some say. You don't have to fill the spoon with every get. It's the option of bigger ones. You're not limiting it to tiny little pointless nothing bites when you have a tablespoon.

You know what, I would say a Sunday, you would use a big spoon, but you could just just do small. No, that's where you're on plane. A Sunday you would use a big spoon. No, that's where you're on plate a Sunday. You would use a long Fancy spoon to really get down into the Sunday holder We're talking about two spoons why are we talking about this? I don't know how this whole topic is week three I'll transcend it three podcasts In the next food for what kind of spoon would you use? What kind of spoon would you use for the ice cream?

Big spoon. Oh, interesting. I mean, the answer to all of this, the answer to everything that's going on here is always going to be the big spoon. In almost no situation, am I using the small spoon? That's an insane thing unless it's beans What what if you are fishing out a tea bag? I Don't drink tea So shame But what if Yes, I guess what is next food the next food in what kind of spoon would you use? It's a curve ball ice cream cake whoa whoa

Little spoons a fork probably for ice cream cakes or Yeah, I would use a fork or a But if you have to use a spoon though, I think I'm sure right the big one a little one Big one on this one you want to get like all all the things No, it's got layers Gus. It's got layers you want every layer at every bike I've got to be honest. I don't know if I've ever voluntarily eaten with a big spoon.

Like, the only time I'll ever pick the big spoon is if there's no other spoon available. I would never, I would never pick the big spoon for anything. Do you think it's for when you buy a set of cut, or silverware, what do you think it's in there for? It's for the, for the trash, you just toss it as soon as you get it.

It's a pointless piece of cutlery. Could you just try eating with a normal tablespoon for like a week, see how you get on? A week? Oh. Yeah. I guess? I don't know, man, that's a big ask.

Do any of you guys have metal sporks? No. No, I think there's blades in Australia. I can't remember. It's basically the spoon. That's also the fork. Yes, he's confused. I have metal sports and those are a game changer. Pretty much I would, I would, they smaller big.

They are. The T sport table. They're like, they're like normal. they're like normal they're like they're like that No friends you know my hands you shaking my hands you know how big my hands Let me reference Blaine's hands eyes hold on no yeah, that's pretty good So as a small I want to see I want to see all the photoshop of sports up against Blaine's hands. I Can't wait for the community to send some of those in incredible. Here's the next food That's for you internet two more foods on what kind of spoon would you use?

Number four Going back to basics here. Mashed potatoes. Little spoon. Little spoon. Little spoon. Mm-hmm. Why is it on its own? Is that like a side?

Yeah, like a side dish. No, it's just dinner. That's a whole thing. You just went, boy, sure, could eat a lot of mashed potatoes. God, that sounds good. I want to eat mashed potatoes for dinner now. I'll tell you this. Do you want to say this thing? Right now. I wanna eat mashed potatoes for dinner now. I'll tell you this.

I'll tell you this thing. Right now, I would use a fork for that. Cause I'm putting it on a plate, probably with some steak, another shit. I'm using a fork on, and you're smanning home in the night. No, you keep over complicating every single fucking food dude. You can't show any food. Just mashed potatoes.

I'm gonna use the spoon. I show you beans, and you talk about a full English. I'm over here. We're talking about beans. I show you mashed potatoes, and you're talking about a steak. Does eat the fucking potatoes, dude Someone has no other food. They put a bowl of mashed potatoes in front of you. What spoon do you use? Who puts a bowl of mashed potatoes down and just eats it on its own? It's always a side of something else that's not used to spoon on This is just a bowl of mashed potatoes in front of you. Nothing else. No stage. I've never done that. I've never even I've never sat down and eaten just a bowl of beans either, but I try to answer the hypothetical question

Well, then why is Eric showing his foods that are always eaten with other things? Every food is eaten with other things. Not true. That's the true. When you go to dinner and just order a steak and nothing else. What about spaghetti? You should have. What about a burrito? I feel like in my head I'm making perfect sense, but everyone else is a lunatic. But now reading, you know, from the comments, I'm in the minority, so now I'm starting to doubt everything I've grown up with. But it's like, it's a minority, but it's not like huge.

Like I think on Twitter, it was 30% of people who used to be bigger. So I mean, on Instagram, it was 40%. That's a hell of a big difference. 70, 30 is pretty big. 70, 30, but then the other one was like 58, 42, which isn't as big of a difference. That was on Instagram. So it's like, it'd be one thing if it was like 5%-10%.

But it's like, you know, it's a proportion. If I was eating just a ball of mash, I'd use the big spoon. There you go. Thank you for answering the question and playing the game, Gavin. But I just wanted to point out how dumb the question is in the first place. Gavin, it's dumb that you would use the big spoon at all. Hi, dear. You want to solve this game? It's a, it's a food.

What kind of food would you, what kind of spoon would you use to eat the food? This is what a mess. Here's the last one. Do we need to go back to the office? It's very, it's like showing me a sandwich and say what spoon would you use? I wouldn't. But you know, eat a sandwich with. I don't even mess with it.

I wouldn't. What you can't eat a sandwich with a spoon. You can't eat. Of course you can. How? Like a cake. Just put the spoon down through the sandwich. What? I think I think someone would call the someone.

I would call the police if I saw someone eating a sandwich with a spoon. Also, like a dead cake, if you eat it with a spoon, it like, you know, takes off a piece perfectly. A sandwich would be like, you got a layer of bread and a layer of cheese and meat. Like, you would be fucking demolishing that sandwich into a crumple by trying to spoon out a piece. A nice peanut, a peanut but a sandwich. You could get down pretty easily with a spoon, but you would be insane for doing so. Yeah. Do you have the ingredients to make a peanut butter sandwich right now? I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I forgot the name of the name. What kind of spoon would you use? Is that rice ball? That. Is it ramen? Did it not?

It didn't. It didn't. It was saying. Peabie ball. I'm saying it right. We're never eating that. Would you use chopsticks for that? I'd use chopsticks.

Yeah, this is explained to them how you eat it with a spoon. This is 100% of food you eat with a spoon. I can't. You mix it all up. You're twisting. Is it a soup? Where are the chopsticks in the picture with it? There are chopsticks in that picture. There are chopsticks in the picture. I would use chopsticks. You could use chopsticks. I mean, I guess you could use it to like mix it all up. I use a big spoon. I do the big spoon, big ol' guy on this one. Yeah, me too. I would get big spoon and then get the chopsticks

to then put on the big spoon. I think I'm recognizing a pattern with me. I think if it has multiple ingredients in it, I use a bigger spoon. If it's just one ingredient, like mashed potatoes or ice cream, it's the smaller spoon. Okay, so this is a dish I only ever get at restaurants and When it's presented to you, it's always presented with a big spoon

So I've only ever eaten peeping bop with a big spoon So I'm gonna go against everything. I've said this entire game and that is a big spoon dish Do you think it says something that a place that makes foods professionally provides you with a tablespoon for eating for that one dish for that one example for every other example, you don't get the big spoon. Well, we'll never know again, because you're never going to go to restaurants ever again.

Playing you said big soon. And that's how you play what kind of spoon would you use? What kind of spoon would you use? What kind of spoon would you use? You didn't show either of those pictures or those foods. We got ice cream, but we didn't have soup. No, that is not an ice cream. That's something.

So what happens to you when we do this show? Do you just go somewhere else? Like, do you just like forget something that happened like 30 seconds ago? All of us do that. You just like, you have like no object permanence or like what's going on. That's how you do the RT podcast every week.

You just go in with an open mind and a blank mind at the same time. You gotta forget everything you know, if you've got everything you talked about in previous weeks. Was Eric talking to me? There's the, there's the line. I like how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how me? There's the I like how how do you how do you date a day? How how do you I get by you know.

Wow didn't show us any of those foods that were in the intro. We absolutely did We absolutely did. We absolutely did. No, you didn't, because that was a Sunday, and then the other one was chicken noodles. I'm sorry, did we have a round that was ice cream? It was different. We clarified though, Eric Badoeward, that ice cream and Sunday, very different things, and that people hear me eat different things.

If you had showed me the thing with the waffle cone and the ice cream with the thing, I would have said big spoon. But when you showed me the ice cream alone, I shows little spoon. So there is a difference, Eric. And if there's anything to criticize about the intro, it's the fact that there was only a picture of one spoon in it. The game is about which spoons you want. But you don't know what kind of spoon that is. Is that a big

spoon or a little spoon? Let's find out. Let's see it. See the intro one more time. That's a little spoon. That's a big spoon. I guess he's right. I think we'll never agree because there's no frame of reference for it. It's this big. It's this big. This episode of Received Podcast is also brought to you by Full Sale. And here to talk about what we're doing, I have the one and only Blaine Gibson special guest for this segment. How are you doing Blaine? You look like I'm not that special, but hello. Thank you for the grand introduction. Yeah. Special to me. Oh, thanks, man. Yeah. Well, I had a special experience. It was me, Chris, and Elise and James over at Funhouse, and we were competing to basically see who could adapt and 3D modeling, an animation of one of the other people

and that quadruple that I told you about. Really confusing word, and basically I was drawing James and Zbrush, and I was being taught by a full-sale teacher and a TA. Could you ever use Zbrush before? I never use Zbrush before, and I actually really enjoyed it. It was to the point where me and Chris were filming for homework,

where we were just like basically in their doodling and making our sketches. And like, they're like, okay, well we can wrap footage and then I was just like, uh-huh, just give me one second. Like, it's fun, Zeebrush is fun. I mean, obviously I know what Zeebrush is, but I mean for the people who might not know, could you explain that?

Yeah, so Zeebrush is a 3D modeling software, and it's something that you can learn at full sale. I mean, they've had a ton of huge people come out of that university from ILM. They've also had people that have worked on the boys, New Mutants, Borderlands 3. So it's not just games or not just movies, it's also games as well.

So yeah, I could theoretically take my James model and put him into a video game Oh, maybe we should do that we should we should be an unlicensed James Willem's video game Yeah, you can work on also making Benson. I think we should put the two of them in it Yeah, now is a good time though It was actually funny because like in a weird way went full circle because at some point I really wanted to go to full sale because I wanted to do video game design, but I ended up going to UT because it was local So like yeah, it's nice and cathartic being able to work with a full-sale person and Yeah, they offer the offer rad degrees

Yeah, let's say I mean tons of they offer a rad degrees. Yeah, like I said, I mean, tons of tons of people come out of there that work on not only movie, not only video games, like you mentioned, but movies and like they're all kinds of entertainment. And you know, we've got quite a few people working here at Ristitia who went there. And so it's a it's a it's a great program. Yeah, now they do a they do a really cool thing too, where they kind of have like around the clock teaching. I think their approach is that they want to have a education that is similar and is going to prepare you for like the time that you would be experiencing in like in the industry.

So it's like you might have weirdly placed scheduled classes, but it's kind of like preparing you for what's to come in your future career. So. And the videos have they started coming out already the ones that The one that people can see the the product that you made with yes Yeah, the back to school with fun house kicked off on August 28th and the first episode with rooster teeth is Well, I guess tomorrow by our

Standards September 3rd. It's out if you're watching this this, watching this video is out. Yes. Okay. Yeah. So I haven't seen it because it's not out by the time we're taping this, but I'm excited to see it when it comes out tomorrow. Yeah. So a big thanks to full sale for sponsoring this podcast and for teaching Blaine a little bit about the ZBrush. Yeah. I want my drawer boy now. Your drawer. A drawer boy. Would you eat a spoon? Would you eat with a spoon in the size of your head? No. If they were fitting in your mouth, they would make a mess everywhere. I should do that.

I'm going to stop that. What do you like? I've never used food that requires a specific tool. Yeah, I was going to say, have you had the ramen spoon? That's its own spoon. Yeah, I don't think I've ever used that type of spoon for any other food or drink before. It's like longer, but like deep, is that the one you're talking about? Yeah, it's like called a wrench or a wrench, I don't know, it's lotus in another language. You'll also use that for like soup dumplings.

You'll also use that spoon. Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah. So but it's got that thing, it's like a ravine going up the, and like, why? Handle? Yeah, why is that there? Did you ever see the video, the guy drinking it?

Like he had the spoon, he's slurped it up, and then he water folded into his mouth because he didn't he genuinely didn't know I should probably not be like fucking grab the balls and then tickling the head or whatever. Okay. Uh, tickling the head. Good old sex trick. Is that is that you guys don't get that? All right, so that was the spoons, uh, three weeks in a row. Um, next week, I we gonna touch on spoons again?

Yeah, I'm curious to see how we bring it back. I mean, the only way we were bringing it back is once we're back in the studio together and we could physically do something with the spoons. Oh, have you ever played spoons? I know, you have for a hard mode. Oh, yeah, I won. You did?

What's the game What's spoons? Yeah, I think you have a bunch of people and then you have a deck of cards and then Everybody has like the first person get a four of a kind reaches for a spoon and then there's one less spoon than there are players Oh, it's a mad a mad grab. So it's like musical chairs. But you're like, the dealer is just like passing a card, and then you guys are like checking the card. And then if you don't have it, then you move on.

And you're just like, it's madness. So you're like, partially looking at your cards and attention to that and partially wondering if someone else is about to go for a grab. Yeah. And there's sometimes there's false alarms. Like sometimes I'll just like throw in like a you know like a fake and then people will be like Sorry, I missed that my headphones inexplicably died in the middle of the middle of Blaine story

That's the best excuse I've ever had for someone not listening to me. I wish I had more of those for Eric Maybe we should do something special with the spoons for RTX at home coming up in a couple weeks. Oh yeah. That's like next week after this podcast. Oh God. Yeah. It starts the 15th is first night and then the 16th is day one. So yeah, that's I guess a week from this podcast coming out. We're going to have, yeah, people should go you go to RTX event.com to get more info and we're going to be doing a lot of live streams on Rourstief.com and We're gonna have some despite the fact we're doing you know a virtual event. We're gonna have some some new merch, right? Like some exclusive merch that we're we're showing off there

There's gonna be a ton of stuff and I actually Did it very safely. We had a production at the studio Everyone was tested for COVID the day before. They had licensed COVID professional medical people there the whole time and it was just like one person in and out at a time essentially. But I got to model all the new upcoming merch. And instead of having everything drop at once, the store is kind of releasing things throughout, I think, November,

starting with Achieve and the Wonder Woman collab coming up. I think when RTX first starts like on the 18th, and I think we have some previews actually that the store has sent to us. Oh, rolled that beautiful bean footage. Roll that beautiful bean. Eeeeee. That'seeeeee It's me! This is the part of the achieved collection I have to say and I would say this of any merch that felt like this This was the most comfortable thing I've ever worn in my life

I'm not kidding Nice It's like a sweatshirt sweatpants combo And there's gonna be, I mean this is just like two of the many pieces that are being released But so cool. Just a tease of things to come. Yeah. Have you ever looked in it?

I could, I could nap in it. I could go skiing in it. I could go, I probably shouldn't go swimming in it. But I could do a lot of things in it. You can get one for every day of the week that we'd never have to wear anything else. Exactly. Man, yeah, there's a lot of really cool stuff there. And then we also have some stuff with the Wonder Woman collab. Nice.

This is just one of the pieces as well. But this is like, I think one of the, my favorite things we've ever made. It has like that speckled look that kind of looks like stars. Has that amazing artwork on the back. I just love the way the hair looks on this on this one or woman character. Oh, I thought you told me about that guy. Yeah, his too. This is Daniel. He he's modeled with us before he did the Birds of Prey Merch with us back last year.

A really professional model. He is. You know the model. That because like I always assume that those are just like stock footage people that are from another place We don't know that's your people we had in this studio really Flains like you're just sad that you didn't get asked no There's gonna be a whole bunch of stuff right not just you know We're just showing very like select pieces. There's gonna be a whole bunch of stuff, right? Not just, you know, we're just showing very like select pieces. There's going to be a whole bunch more. We don't want to spoil it all before it comes out.

Oh, there's even like a really schedule right there. Oh, yeah. So I was blanking on the name to the artist, but it's with Sam Davidson, the one-room stuff is with Robin Eisenberg, tons of really cool stuff. And then after that, you have Fun House and Killer Acid, Ruby and Bab's Tar, which is some of my personal favorite. And then Jeff Ramsey and Jeremy Fish and Richard Teeth and Don Peddleton.

It's amazing. They made the whole studio look like a comic book shop. And all the merch, I don't want to spoil it. And I don't know if I'm allowed to say this, but all the merch gets packaged and delivered like it looks like a comic book. So the packaging is also super wicked, super rad. Yeah, last year at RTX, the theme was like a video store. So everything was packaged up like a VHS cassettes. So I guess this year it's all comic book themed. Yeah, boy. Nice. Well, I can't wait. I'm excited to try some best stuff out, especially.

I got to see if it's as comfortable as you say it is. And I can sit on my couch and think, what spoon would I use to eat dinner tonight? Gus, I'd be willing to bet a lot of money that you would love it very much. I'm sure you would. I'm sure you would. Choose any spoon because you'd be so relaxed that you won't even care.

I don't even care if I have to use the big spoon. Yeah. But yeah, that stuff, and I know there's also going to be a lot of other exclusive RTX merch dropping throughout the whole event. So definitely keep an eye on the store, Twitter, and Instagram and all that stuff, because there's going to be some exclusive stuff that's only available for like a day or a couple days. Oh, damn. So keep an eye out. There's some cool stuff coming.

Nice. I'm gonna keep an eye out because I bet they're not even gonna send us any. I'm gonna have to try to fix them up as well myself. They're gonna try to save everything for the audience. So you guys buy stuff so Gus can't get it basically. If you don't buy it, I will. I'm gonna I'm gonna beat you to it. That's always a sign. It's always a sign when we have like a really good merch is when like they're like they can't get it to the people that are doing on screen. So if they're like, no, sorry, like we don't need your help because it's already sold out. Yeah. Yeah, I bet that's going to be the case with this stuff. I definitely tried to like sneak some of the merch back home after

I got to model it, but some of the stuff are like, well, we're still photographing some things, or we still need the sample for this. Damn it. She did just bopped on it. Bart? Yeah, that is yours. I'm keeping this. I probably would have worked actually. Or just... I'll just shacin it. W just, you know, just shacking it. Wipe my ass with my love tan with it. There you go.

Something. All right. We don't. Don't. Yeah, but that's going to be, let's be fun. We have a lot of a lot of stuff planned coming up with RTX and we're trying to figure out ways to incorporate interactivity with a bunch of the panels we're doing and try to make people feel like they're more present even though, you even though we're doing this virtual event. So it's going to be a lot of fun. There's a good morning from Hell panel.

Yep. Oh, I can't hear Blaine anymore. Blaine? Oh, hey, what's up? I said there's a good morning from Hell panel. Yeah, I think it blurred me out because I did my Clayton voice and then like that. So yeah, I'm curious to see how that's going to go because we have a bunch of bits plans. And so like we had this huge elaborate live thing intended for like live RTX, but we're putting that in our back pocket. We're still excited for that. But the other thing that we have with some special guests that I'm not going to say who they are, I think might be a little bit better. Oh, fuck, I can't really talk about it without spoiling it, but I will be doing my own

makeup. So if Clayton looks like shit, then you'll know why. It's because I'm alone in my house just like dabbing on red makeup and horns. It's going to be a good one. Yeah. I'm stoked. Yeah, I'm stoked. Yeah, I'm trying to think of one of the panels I'm gonna be doing this, doing, I'm mostly excited to see how the one-on-one sessions are gonna go. I'm genuinely excited to have that interaction and not have the pressure of a bunch of people

standing around just for it to be like me and one other person and just be in it. But they'll still be there waiting, surely. You just can't see them. Yeah, you can. person and just be in it. But that's still like, talk. There'll still be their weighting, surely. You just can't see them. Yeah, you can't see them. You don't know about it. I just like the idea is that the next real life RTX blame signing just has a big cut in front of the line

so we can't see all the people weighting. You know, some people do that. They always. I see that. There's some celebrities at conventions who set up their booth in a certain way where the fans go through Like do everything they need to get like the print and whatever and then they go into another section like behind another curtain

Where they meet the person. I guess it avoids like people taking pictures and I don't know Maybe to have a more like one-on-one private session with the person interesting way of doing it I suppose Yeah, I guess if you do enough of those then you start to get a feel as to what you prefer. I feel also if you're a big enough celebrity too, then you'll probably want to do. You can provide that to the whole structure. The thing about that is I went to a convention and I'm not going to say who the celebrity was, but like they haven't been on the up and up in a while. But then meanwhile, I think like fucking, there was like an Avenger right next to them.

The Avenger didn't have the curtain But then the other person did and I was like Mmm-hmm, I'm judging you a bit. I don't know. It's just something about that privacy curtain. It's just like I mean, it might be better. It might be a better experience for the people in line It might be more intimate and then they might not feel as rushed because they know that everyone's not looking at them Right I think that it also in a way if if you're in line, it builds anticipation, right? Like you're not there just watching them and waiting in line.

You're like, oh my God, I can't wait. Like going through the curtain becomes an event in a way. I'm just trying to see like the, you don't see them the whole time. Yeah. I guess I will say whenever we've been doing RTX and we're having like the signing sessions or whatever, I'll see someone like, I think like Nick Mastro, I think is a community members name. He like lives in Austin and we have a tradition where he takes a photo of us, prints out the photo, takes a photo of us holding the photo.

And like basically we've like, had that multi leveled thing. So it stacks every year. Yeah. And then every time I see him in line, I know who he is. And I'm just like, ah, and then it's just like that for an hour of me going, ah, yeah, you're like almost here, bud. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, that's always a fun experience when, you know, whenever we do conventions for Ruby, sometimes what they'll do is they'll snake one giant line and then have everyone go through all four of us instead of like doing individual cues for every one of us because usually, you know, if you're a fan of Ruby you'll want to meet all four of us to get like, you know, all four signatures. But it's funny because usually it snakes and I'm the last in line every time. So oftentimes I'll be waiting for like Lindsey Karen Aaron to finish with people before they get to me. So I'll just be like sitting at my booth waiting. And then there's people right in front of me who are just in that snake line.

And I'm like, I don't know. Like, should I have a conversation with you? Because you're going to be like moving in a second, but you see me? I don't want to pretend like I don't see you. It's like that awkwardness. Like we'll talk soon. We'll hang out soon. I promise.

Yeah. Yeah. Yep. So I see where Curtin might come in handy. Yeah. I'm sure, I mean, I'm sure there's, you know, pleasant minds is to both ways of doing it. And I'm sure the people who request to have a reason for doing it, which we should ask if we ever bump into those people, right?

I mean, we see them sometimes. We that's, that's not a rooting ask, right? You can be like, hello celebrity. Uh, yes, I mean, like at the event when you see them, like,'s not a rooting ask right? You can be like, Hello celebrity. Uh, yes, I mean like at the event when you see them. I know. What is that? This episode of the RCT podcast brought to you by Kaviar.

Yeah, I'm excited to hide under my desk, and then when people enter the chat room for the one-on-ones, I'll pop out. And then I'll scare them. That would not be for more than five people and then you'd be like, I'm done with this bit. It might be a start. Yeah, I will say, like, don't be nervous if you're planning to do like any of the meat and

greets. This is obviously for the community watching. Oh, thanks. I like super. I'll also blame Dopey nervous. It's gonna be okay. But like, it's just, it's just like a nice time.

So don't don't be nervous. It's super chill. Super easy. Yeah. just chill. I'm stoked. I'm stoked to see inside of everyone's apartments to what decorations they have. Yep. You, I hope someone builds a blaine shrine and that they'll, it's like in the background behind them

when they go into meet you. It's like, look, it's an authentic lock of blaine hair. Ah, that's great. He's got a lot of it now. A lot of it to go around. That's what you should do. Every meeting that you have, you should just like send them a lock of your hair. Then you'll cut it all off eventually. Kelly will be very happy.

No, no, no, no. Kelly, Kelly, get her way. I want my hair. We had a date the other night. It was just kind of an impromptu random thing. And there was supposed to be a meteor shower in Austin. Or like, I mean, it was just a meteor shower. I guess it's not specifically in Austin

because it's a meteor shower. Anyways, it's in space. It's in space. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So like we, Austin's British shit. So then we drove out like an hour or so out of town to where we could get away from the city light pollution. And we found this like we went off this one highway, off to this back road and then went

off on a back road on the back road. And we found this like perfect little spot in the middle of the field. And we saw like a house out in the distance, but other than that it looked perfect. Popped open the Jeep, we like lay down some mats and some picnic blankets or just the stars. Yeah, it's nice. He's nice. And then I heard a voice from the from like some corn like cropped like like the farmland. I don't know some plants. And I heard hello. Hello. And I was like, I bolted up. I was like, it's that. Oh my God. And I was like, someone talking to us, and then I just kind of like, whatever.

I must, it's my imagination. And then Kelly was like, did you just hear someone say hello? And I was like, did you hear that too? Which is like, yeah. And we're like, so we like grabbed it up above the blanket, and then threw them in the cheap. And then just got the fuck out of there. And the rest of the night we were freaked the fuck out. What if someone needed help?

It I know it was a ghost it was a hundred percent of ghost you guys You don't know that So we agree that it was a ghost. We agree that it was a ghost you didn't think hey with with trespassing on Someone's land you thought ghost Yeah, cuz like the the way that they were saying it, it kind of either sounded like someone was on their cell phone or someone was like talking us from the ethereal plane. Like it just seemed off. Like they weren't talking like, if I were to say hello to someone that was out in a cornfield, it'd be like, hey, hello, you know,

but instead it sounded eerily close to us as if they were just on the other side of the crops. I mean, I would rather hear hello than goodbye. It's good point. It's good point. That's beautiful. Someone's just like, goodbye. You're like, what? And they're like, goodbye.

I'm gonna kill you. So did you see any meteor shower happen? Yeah, we saw some shooting stars. Nice. Did you press A? Make a wish? Yeah, did you get any fragments shower happen? Yeah, we saw some shooting stars. Nice. Did you you press a make a wish? Yeah, did you get any fragments? Oh, I didn't make it that far. Is that animal crossing? Yeah, I didn't do that. Yeah, I invited Gavin over to my island one time when I had a meteor shower Dude, you got me my first fragments. I I somehow played that game for like five or six weeks without ever seeing anything happen like that on my island.

Yeah, well, I'm happy to help. I haven't touched that game in a month and a half. Like since the August update, I don't think I've touched it. Your villagers are probably all dead at this point. Yeah, can they move out without you being there? I don't think so. Okay. I think it would be cool if you could come back to just a bunch of graves though. And that really makes you feel bad. I think that would fit in perfectly with the animal crossing universe. Kill you into playing. It's like a good time.

I actually got a fetal every day. You just come back and there's just little piles of shit everywhere. I mean, I went. They just got so scared and angry. They just shit everywhere. We talked about a good morning from hell episode where we have the ghost of a Tomikachi. Come back and we do a interview with it. It was just like a real funny. Yeah. Tomikachi's man. They still make those, right?

Yeah, I actually bought, I actually bought one like a year ago just for fun because I was at some store that sells like different chachis and stuff and I saw a time of got you know, I got to get this. I haven't seen one of these in 20 years. It's Tamagotchi, that's the Japanese restaurant. Let me tell you, it is not as fun when you're 30 years old playing with one of those as it was when you were a kid. Yeah, yeah. Technology is advanced far beyond a Tamagotchi. Did you have one when they were new though? Did you have one as a kid? I did. I had a Tamagotchi Anna, a Nanopet, I think is what they were called. That sounds familiar. Look it up. I remember that the end of that one. They don't want to connect to each other?

No. There's one where you could like have it play with another one. Oh, a Nanopet. It is, that is right. Okay. Yeah, I had a Nanopet and I dropped it in. We had like a little kitty pool in our backyard and I dropped it in it and it like died and I was devastated. Did it play a special drowning animation? No, I can't say it.

I think I applied for a job at Nanopets years ago. Like, in the late 90s. Do that. That's the Mac Alps, I think I applied for a job at NanoPets years ago, like, what the like, 90s. Do that tech estimate? I think so. I totally forgot about that company too right now. It sounds vaguely familiar. I think maybe a head hunter had contacted me

about potentially working there. But you didn't get the job? I don't think I got, well, yeah, I know. I didn't get the job. I would have taken it if I had gotten it. But I was working at the call center at the time. And I think that they had contacted me. It sounds familiar. I. But I was working at the call center at the time. And I think that they had contacted me. It sounds familiar.

I feel like throughout your time at the call center, you were trying very hard to not work there. Oh, absolutely. Did you try to get fired like actively? No, that's a different job. Moving out of the like, continent to US as well. Yeah, I mean, is Puerto Rico not part of the continental US?

Is it on the different continent? I don't know. Maybe it's It's the most probably the same continent. Well, I guess when you say continental US That's the 48 states, but I don't know what I'm like where the continental plate is. I guess different land mass Man, that is a fucking nerdy as conversation. I wonder where'd you myself or even say Okay for even saying that. Do him nerd. Okay. By the way, guys, have you pickled your shit yet? Not your feces, you're...

No, I have it. I need to finish eating. I made way too many pickles. So, that's my rookie mistake. I'm still trying to eat all the pickles that I made. I got to use that jar. So I'm trying to eat everything before I repickle and pick on new things in there So no not yet, but soon hopefully all right

At least dad made pickled okra for us and it was fucking Okra is good your head okra. Yeah, of course okra is so good. That's a real hipster conversation. Oh, yeah, what okra? It's a very Austin conversation talk about how good good that is. Yeah, that is a lot true. Who's the biggest hipster in this collection of people out of us for? I guess if you include Eric it would be Eric. Eric. What kind of spoon would you eat a hipster with? I don't know if I would, I don't know, I think maybe Blaine. I mean, we could do some test questions. What did I do to deserve? What happened?

All right, have you, as anyone here ever bought a honey from local bees? Yes. No. Yeah, it's good for you and your, and your, and your sciences. Yeah, or allergies. Go for your allergies. Yeah. Yeah. What there? Is there like a hipster quiz? I'm going to put something to Google am I Yeah, are you a hipster?

All right, let's run through it. Okay, uh play that play the graphic This is it's a check any that apply though. Okay, so We'd have to probably go one at a time for this one. I mean, do you listen to vinyl is probably on there? A vinyl record I'm old enough that I used to when I was a kid Let me just read let me just read some of these and you guys could like raise your hand if it applies to you Okay, and we'll see collectively if we're a hipster You insist on watching the original versions when foreign shows are remade in America Yeah You should leave talk about always so by the dub

I think about that like the office Hmm Well, Blaine said yes, you create a show's for being too soapy So please soapy soapy. Soapy's not early in my like, yeah. Yeah. You get annoyed when people use a meme the wrong way. Oh, yeah, for sure.

Yeah. That's not a hipster thing though, is it? I'm, hey, what Buzzfeed says goes. Yeah, I don't think I feel like any of these relate to hips to yet. Yeah, good. I mean, hipsters don't any of these relate to hips to yet. Yeah. Keep going. I mean, hipsters don't even have computers.

They're on typewriter. You're annoyed by people who use too many hashtags on Instagram. This is the one. Yeah. Social media based. If someone doesn't like a series you love, you think the person watched it wrong. No. I don't even know how that would happen.

You have Eden an artisanal hamburger. Well, yeah, they made that up. There is no such thing as an artisanal, I gotta look that up now. There's, I bet you'd be eating one. Gus, we went together to a place in artisanal hamburger. What was it from a food truck? No, it was not from a food truck. Okay.

What makes something autisanal? Where was it? It was like dry aged wagyu and all like this locally sourced ingredients. Yeah, it was all like that. It was that. Oh, I hate myself for that. But I guess I did. It's very sensitive.

It was a very different. And hillside pharmacies got the one of the best burgers in Austin. I love that place. I think they're closed indefinitely. But man, great, great perk. If they open again and things are safe and you traveled Austin, head over to Hillsborough. I feel like, do you drink out of a jaw

should be on this list? Yes. It could be on the list and no, I do not. Yeah, I could go through these and like, like ones that actually would be hipster, like you own an item of clothing or accessory that's over 20 years old. Yes, yes, but that's just because I'm lazy.

They're not from a vintage store. That is your clothes. It's just my shirt that I've owned for over 20 years. I got some clothes like that still. You still own something with Che Guevara's face on it. No. No, but Gus, you have kind of, because you have your own shirt, right? Yeah, but that's my face. It's inspired by else. These are so dumb. I hate these. You've posted a photo of your feet from above.

James Willems. Yeah. Big sips your mom. Also, you posted a photo of yourself in a reflection. Who 99% of the people who take photos, these, that. I think it's a rare miss from Buzzfeed on this quiz. A rare miss. Oh, here we go. You own vinyl records. Yeah. Yeah.

You only eat with a teaspoon. You've dyed your hair pink, green, or blue. That's, I don't think that's a hit-through thing though. Like, there's a lot of questions here that are just kind of like, you're a millennial. Okay. That's enough of that quiz. We'll look for something better. That was a bit of a shit quiz. We'll let Eric come up with one. We'll give Eric homework. Let's just battle to be our new think. We'll just give Eric homework look for something better now. That was a bit of a shit quiz. Well, let Eric come up with one. We'll give Eric homework. Let's just battle with our new thing. We'll just give Eric homework every week.

I'm sure he's got his head in his hands right now. This sucks. I mean, do you get good? No, you go ahead. Yeah, you're going to say, well, I mean, do you know, Scooby Snacks exists that are edible by humans and dogs? What the fuck? Oh, what that up real quick.

You want to like share a snack with your dog? Yes. Because my girlfriend's dog's birthday was recently and we bought it a cake, but we ended up eating some of the cake because it was really good. Like they sent all the things that were in it and it was basically a giant gingerbread snack. So it wasn't dog food.

What did you use to eat it? Hands. Did you just pick pieces out of the party? Speaking of food for dogs, whether or not it's edible, did you see the other day? Someone finally had I had I had this idea on the podcast like seven years ago and some they're finally doing it. I was a visionary head of my times. Like seven years ago I said, I wanted to have a beer that I could give my dog and then he's your bush announced that they're making dog beer now. Wow. Okay, that that needs to be on the hips to quiz that you you buy dog beer for your dog to call it a

Bush dog brew Wait so deep to Clarify you can drink this. I don't think I think you probably can but I don't think you're supposed to I don't think it's actually either I don't think it's technically a beer either. It looks like it's a bone broth and dog friendly flavors and nutrients. I mean, bone broth's fucking rad. Ooh, is there a bone broth alcoholic beverage? Cause that sounds like that would be pretty...

Not a main. Mm-hmm. Hasty, tasty. They have a place over there on Maynard that like they have like a broth of the day. Oh, what's that place called? Diedue? Oh, yeah, yeah, or Diedue.

Diedue? Yeah. They have a, they have like a selection of bone broths and I think they have like a daily one that they rotate between. Gus, that's where we got our hamburger. That's right. We did get a hamburger though. Full circle. got our hamburger. That's right. We did get a hamburger.

Full circle. The dog brew has bone in pork butt, whole corn, celery, basil, mint, turmeric, ginger, and water. So there you go. You could you could drink that bling. Well, I'm going to buy you dog beer bling. Okay. I'll say to the guests. How much would it take for you to get drunk? It has no alcohol.. How much would it take for you to get drunk? It has no alcohol. So how much would it take? Does alcohol affect dogs? I'm sure it does. Don't test it, but...

No, I don't test it. I've ever seen that fake commercial of the spiders on different types of drugs. Yeah. So good. I remember seeing that when I was younger, thinking it was 100% real. Isn't there a bit where there's a spider

in like a low rider that's bouncing up and down there? Yeah, well, there's one that was just like, this is it on marijuana, and it's like in a hammock or something like that that it made. I forget what it was. I forgot about that video. That was really good. That's old internet, yeah.

That's shit. All right, well, I think we need to wrap this up a little, a little early. But here's the benefit. We everyone could go enjoy their holiday. What's up? We're going to have so many extra days of stuff to talk about for the next August. It's true. It's true. By the time the next podcast comes out, the first few episodes of The Boys season two will be out.

I'm really excited about that. Oh, season two is coming out already? On Friday. That's right. But Mandal boys season two will be out. I'm really excited about that. Ooh. Season two is coming out already? On Friday. That's right. But Mandalorian, that's coming out. Mandalorian is coming out October 30th. Yeah. They're doing something weird, Barbara,

where they're only releasing the first three episodes of the boys season two, and then they're gonna do it weekly after that. I think they did that with Handmaid's Tales, like one of the seasons of that. That's Hulu, I think they do that. Yeah. It's weird for Amazon to be doing that, I think,

because well, whatever. I mean, it'll get people hooked, at least having three episodes to watch. Yeah. I'm actually rewatching. Anyway, let's end this. We're, we're, we're on the tangent now. Thanks for watching, everybody.
