Hello everyone welcome to the receive podcast. I'm Gus. I'm Eric. Oh, I'm Cole. I'm Cole. I'm Elise. And I'm also Gus. Everyone that we did do it, I wasn't expecting a turn. I was not in costume. 10 seconds ago, it was normal Eric.

We go to the intro. I read about ExpressVPN and we've got Captain Eric. What do you talk costume? Is my one day a tire friend? Oh, what? That's what happens at a life at sea. You don't have to be afraid of hackers on the open ocean. Right. Right. Especially not with our sponsor ExpressVPN ExpressVPN.com slash RTTV to protect your data today. If you're on the open ocean and still want to watch Netflix, you can do it too. It's a little known fact. When you're an international water,

people can steal your packets. It's not illegal. Oh, my packets. Packets, your pictures, anything. You have to do a DNS reset. They're catching packets. I catch a packet. What?

Here's what I think happens. I think it's Monday, the day that we record this, Eric, he goes out on the weekend, he goes out on the water in the boat. He's the captain of his own domain. He's listening to Yacht Rock, Follblass, and then he comes on the weekend, he goes out on the water in the boat. He's the captain of his own domain. He's listening to Yacht Rock, fold blast. And then he comes on the podcast Monday afternoon, and he thinks he owns the place. That's what I think it's not about ownership on the open seas,

at least it's about friendship, fun and fair weather. He did slack me right before this demanding I call him the admiral. So, but that's, but that's either here nor that that's not just our normal banter that's just our normal conversation. Yeah, at least how are you? I'm doing well. I didn't spend the weekend on the water but got some sun nonetheless. So I'm feeling reenergized for the week.

How are you all doing? Are you like a plant? You got all your son photosynthesized? I just definitely do. I have a sad lamp that I keep right here at my desk. What? A sad lamp? A sad lamp. So I can boot that up. I could get a few rays. I don't understand. What's the power of the sun on the palm of your hand?

It's a seasonal effective disorder lamp. And I mean, I, you know, these are blackout curtains. They got me recording for more until night. So I don't get a lot of breaks. So you know, every time between recordings, I just kick out the lamp and I go, okay, I can do four more hours of the league and do it. Is that the old Bure T L 55 UK?

Oh, Gus, you know it. What? What? How what is this? Yeah, what? What? It looks just like a lamp. Does it? What is it? I don't.

It's a sad lamp. It's a it's a sad lamp with night light and it combat seasonal effective disorder. 10,000 looks portable daylight lamp relaxing night light. Yeah, it's tricking your brain into being happy. Is it working? I could use that. I think I could do three more podcast with just that little hit that juice that juice that I just got now. I could do three more podcasts after this. And I will. Do you feel better? Are you like

are you like way hap is James like oh I've noticed your mood is so much better have you been using your sad lamp more? No and actually when I after I blast the lamp at myself, I can't see. For about 16 seconds. Well, that's part of the, you don't see anything, so you have nothing to be afraid of. The ignorance is bliss. Smart, it's smart.

Yeah, it's like a version therapy. Yeah, it's, I went, I went to the doctor, the last annual checkup I had was last year. It's was like run star of the pendant. It's been about a year. Anyway, I went to the doctor last year and they know they do blood work and everything and it came back. And normally there's no problem.

Everything's fine. When it came back last year, the doctor was like, you are severely vitamin D deficient. I was like, what? He's like, you need to be taking like 200% of the maximum dosage of vitamin D every day for the rest of your life because you are so vitamin D deficient. And this was at like the start of quarantine.

Yeah, last year. And I was like, oh, well, like, okay, I guess I do spend a lot of time inside, but I felt like I was being judged or like shamed for my lack of sunlight activity. I was going to make fun of you because at least said that she had a nice weekend, she got some sun, and then I was gonna go, Gus, did you have a similar weekend? Were you out and about? Or are you like running the dogs, some sun?

How was your sunlight? No sun, I had nothing on it. Wow, no way. Yeah, go figure. Yes, five, but PS5. PS5 I got, I looked at it, didn't play anything on it. What if they make TV, hold on, what if they make TVs out of the happy lamp?

Whoa. Do we be too bright? Yeah. to play anything on it. What if they make TV, hold on, what if they make TVs out of the happy lamp? Whoa! Oh, yeah. They'll be too bright. Yeah? Wait, be too bright. Every light in your house, be a sad light, or whatever? I think so. Oh, yeah, I guess.

Let's look up, let's see what's different about a sad lamp. I'm gonna use it on the happy lamp. Set it up on a stand and use it instead of the lights you have now. Does it mean we can replace the atmosphere? Finally, we can build a new one. You think that that's the way that we replace the atmosphere? Well, that's how we replace the sun.

Lamps? Yeah, put a bunch up there. Up where? In the atmosphere. What do you think the atmosphere is? It's like the big circle around the little circle, right? The big question is, where do you think the sun is? It's really far.

Okay, I understand it's really far, but I've been trying to think, how do we get rid of it? How do we not need it anymore? How do we get rid of the sun? Yeah. Why do you want to get rid of the sun? Because it's destroying the ozone.

Mr. Burns tried to do this. Do you remember that? He tried to block out the sun. Yeah. He wanted, you know, Springfield to be run by just his power and then somebody shot him coal. That's something to consider here. It was a baby.

I don't see any babies. Yeah. That's true. I thought of that already. I already thought of that. Well, the baby's not going to blow up in a couple billion years anyway. We may as well get ready to live without a Yeah, the big shield now. We just got to wait it out. We just got to wait it out. No, but we're tree man shine I've seen that movie sunshine

But if we don't have a system set up before then then we're fucked. Yeah, we We need to have an alternative son first before our son blows up That's smart and we already have the alternative sun. We've figured this out. We already had the alternative sun. It's that lamp, at least it's room. Well, I know Gus having read the three-body problem knows that some planets have multiple suns.

Mm-hmm. Gus. Is this true? A tween or what? Oh, speaking of reading, I want to get... Is this your segue? That was your segue?

It also has to do with space. The final frontier. Elise, you're one of the reasons that I finally started watching the expanse. Oh, geez, more about this, man. And everyone needs to watch it. It's great. I want to say this because I remember Elise was like, you had like a sponsored post. It's a big fan.

Yeah, when season five came out. And I was like, oh yeah, that's show. Like that kind of put it into my mind. So I'm telling you and I'm telling Amazon, that was money well spent because I started watching it. So, oh my God, I could have clipped this out. You do have a sponsored ships. Yeah.

I'm gonna clip this out and I'm gonna send it and they're gonna say, stop emailing us. Yeah, did it. That's because they have a referral program because you just, that's a successful signup right there. That's a conversion. Yeah. And I went ahead and I bought the book, the first book off of Amazon as well. And I got the whole point of the moot.

That's a whole point of a TV series to sell books. Yeah. Yeah. Sure. I haven't read the books. I haven't started yet. I'm probably going to, I'm going to wait till I'm almost on season five. Once I'm done with season five, I'm going to start the books.

The point of, the point of a movie or TV show is to sell books is very funny. That's what that's for. I got to go buy that book. That's what they're for. Lord the Rings. Harry Potter. They want to buy the books. Eric, then why were they always doing movie novelizations in the 90s?

That's true. And then why do they keep doing them now? You know how they're everywhere. That's the entire point of the anime industry is a somewhere manga Oh wait now I see now I see the cracks in the code cool I'm gonna okay And Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. That's what I read Yeah, there's only movies that have ever been made from books.

Did you end up taking vitamin D? I need to know. Yes, I take how much do I take? I take 4,000 are you a day? I don't remember off the top of my head. Something like that. But yeah, so I take are you vampiric? Apparently, but I give you like a satan. I take no, it's not give me a 10, but they're gummies. So it's like a great way to start my day. Wake up and I'm like, oh, it's time to take my gummy vitamins I take all my I take all my supplements in gummy form because it's like a little treat. Yeah, take a little

Kindly and you're like this is healthy the doctor said I should be eating this Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Rooster Team Podcast. The world's oldest podcast. We're talking about vitamin gummies and your health deficiencies. Thank you for joining us this week. We're talking about us as vitamin D. We talked about law for the first like 200 episodes. I already worked at a company that did that. I'm along with the ride with you.

Don't worry about it. That was like the last great TV show. All the other TV shows have been bad. Yes. And I was probably trying to sell a book, wasn't it? Yeah. Oh, I didn't. I see a video game. I see me mean like network TV. Yes. Well, I mean, I kind of put it up against most other shows, but breaking bad. What about breaking bad? I didn't watch the last season. I got I was over it. I just I like. What about breaking bad? I didn't watch the last season. I got, I was over it. I just, I like- Oh my god. So here's my issue.

Oh, Game of Thrones is also selling a book. Sell in a book. I stop. What's the episode where Jamie gets his hand cut off? That's the last episode that I watched. It's like, um, Thipsod 3 or something. I just win.

Oh, no. I think it's the red wedding episode. I think that was the last episode. No, I don't think I like the show anymore. So stop watching it. I have a thing with media where I do not finish it. I have a hard time getting to the end of something. I didn't watch the last episode

of the first season of True Detective. I can watch the last season. To recap. Breaking Bad. Yeah. Lost is the last great TV show according to a guy who doesn't finish TV shows. Yes, correct.

Because of that, one of the last shows that I watched. It was great. Do you think that that may have ruined TV shows for you? Yes, definitely, because I think that the show itself, I think the worst part about loss was probably the TV show lost. But everything surrounding lost, I really enjoyed a lot, where it was like,

ooh, why did that bird say her least name? What's with these polar bears? I'm having a great time. But that was my favorite stuff about lost. I'm only seeing the pilot and the final episode of lost. Oh my God. You're that's like sanity. That's awesome.

I know. I know. Oh my God. Did you love it? No, I mean, I purgatory whatever. I'm whatever. We're able to connect the dots. We're like, oh, this makes sense.

It's got a guy sleeping on a beach and a dog in both episodes. It's everything you could ever want. I mean, yes, I do want to sleep on the beach and have a dog, but at the same time, I did not think it would, I mean, it's a bit tripe. Can I say that word on this podcast? You can think of it as well.

Really, as the producer, I'll let it fly, but you're scurtin' it. Yeah, next time you do that, let me know. S***, you know. Like, I got you covered. You're a football counselor. I have heard that the show that you need to watch is the leftovers, which I have attempted.

Like three times. The leftovers is so fucking good. And nobody watched that. I watched that last year, like at the start of the pandemic, like at the start of like trying to fill time. Uh, and it's amazing. I can't believe I didn't watch that show when it was on the air. It's, and it's, it's only like three seasons.

It's so quick. It's absolutely incredible. I saw there was a cult where nobody talked and I went, I don't think this shows for me. It's, it's good. And, uh, well, what dollar amount would I have to pay you for you spend a day silent 24 hours? Oh, I think I could do it for 20. Yeah, you got like 20 bucks. You can just bend, though me.

That'd be sick. That'd be cool. Can we do it on like a Tuesday? So I don't have to like, you know, it's like, oh, I can't be in these meetings. Sorry. Sorry, I'm making 20 bucks here. Yeah, I can't talk. I don't have to like, you know, it's like, oh, I can't be in these meetings, sorry. Sorry, I'm making 20 bucks here. I can't talk. I'm holding it.

I'm a rich little paper. Just keep me waiting. How many vitamin gummies would we have to give you to not talk to you? Would you do it for one vitamin gummy? I buy like a big container of them. You give me one big container, like one container of vitamin gummies, I'll do it.

How many is it? Oh, that's a lot. I don't know. I'm looking it up. me one big container, like one container of vitamin gum. He's gonna do it. How many of them? Oh, that's a lot. I don't know. I'm looking it up. Honestly, if you can overdose on vitamin D. Listen, it's what the doctor told me to take. Yeah, absolutely. He better not do it.

It's what the doctor ordered. Vitamin D toxicity, toxicity in our city. Oh, no. Oh, no. Symptoms include, let me know if you have any of these symptoms. Ready? Nausea. Uh-oh.

Vomiting. Uh-oh. Vomiting. Uh-oh. Weakness. Oh, I'm a failure. Do you have any kidney failure? Are you guys okay? Are your kidneys? Are you all up?

They say they're all right. All right. Mayo Clinic says be careful. Well, my doctor said be careful for the other reason. You could get kidney stones from it. I'm out. I think what was it? I forget what the other reason. You can get kidney stones from it, I'm out. I think what was it? It was like, I forget what the scale was.

Like, when you get your blood work back, it's like the scale, like from a low end to a high end, like you supposed to be somewhere in this range. And mine was so far below the low range, I can't wasn't even on the chart. Like, you couldn't see it, it was gone. What the fuck? Aren't there like vitamins, don't there foods with vitamin D?

Are you just like not eating any foods with it or what? I don't think there are. I think you have to get it from the sun or from a supplement. What about, I thought oranges gave me vitamin D. That's vitamin C. Oh, okay, so you don't screw me. No. Aranges are thirsty though.

They're always trying to get it. Huh? Vitamin D. Yeah, always trying to get it. Huh? Vitamin D. Yeah, I got it. I'm with you. At least welcome to the podcast. Thanks for joining us tonight. Thanks for having me. It's just a good weekend. Catching some rays. A sleep on a beach with your dog. It's just like loss.

At least what have you been working on? What have you been doing? What have you been up to? What's new in the world of fun house? So in the world of fun house, we have Bortas Hell coming back with a new season of King's dilemma and that's really, really excellent. We went to the office recently and shot a few things.

One was James Willem's joint that we had intended to shoot right on the precipice of quarantine. And then of course it got nicks because of the world. But yeah, it's a really fun idea. And I'm excited for everybody to see it. And I personally have been doing a podcast that with Blaine and Alfredo for the Warner Brothers YouTube channel called Popcorn and Shield where we talk about some Warner Brothers movies. Warner Brothers YouTube channel called Popcorn and Shield, where we talk about some Warner Brothers movies,

which I mean, I can talk about movies all the time. I actually feel like I'm podcasting like this. Like we just talked about Lost and then Leftovers, and I feel like I restrain myself with these just general podcast, just to not make them into movie podcasts. So yeah, we, our first episode, we talk about Godzilla vs. King Kong and the whole like monster

verse. But then we're talking about moral combat. I'm hoping we talk about the conjuring because I love the kuku, ever the conjuring universe, cinematic universe. So anytime I can talk about that, I'm excited. It's a blast. It's a really good time, especially with them because we don't really get to talk about movies together. Mm.

The Cole looks skeptical. He says this might, this seems like it might be a little corporate. Well, you're talking about the Koo Koo and I'm terrified honestly. I saw the Annabelle. I saw it and said no way. Mm-hmm. I don't know. No, go ahead.

Sorry. Do you guys all scare easily? Absolutely. Look at me. I'm like a frightened little rat man all the time. What about me, sis Brevery? I don't think I do, but jump scares will definitely at me. I'm like a frightened little rat man all the time. What about me, sis Brevery? I don't think I do, but jump scares will definitely get me. I feel like jump scares are cheap though.

I like, I, I, I, I scariously, but I like scary things. So it's a real dilemma. I do not like scary things at all. I love scary things. Zero. Do not, do not give me, what, what is it about scary things that you like? I once heard that if you have anxiety, scary movies you might gravitate to because it's

like an anxiousness you can control. So it's a psychological sort of thing, but I don't know, I think it's thrilling. It's the fun of it. I love, you know, every year I was go to a bunch of haunted houses or attractions and they always think that they're going to scare like the small blonde woman, but I just mean mug them. I just like hit him with like, you know, mean mugs. That's good.

You showed them those teenagers. Those unpaid teenagers. Not scary farm, not scaring me. I like the truth. Who is that the best one? Never been. I did. I went to the I went to the Warner brothers one two years ago. And there was an excellent attraction.

I've never done anything like it where they brought us all into a small church and a priest stood up at the lectern and started, you know, talking to us. And then all of a sudden, shit started going crazy in the church, cross the started turning upside down and the lights were flickering. Demons. And then the priest went away and then Reagan

from the exorcist fucked up behind the lectern. Oh, that's like Ronald Reagan. I thought it was Ronald Reagan also. Hey, everybody. True. How do you ever heard Ronald Reagan's junior speak? No, does he say that you have? I bet, oh, he sounds exactly like his father.

Wow. But then anyway, a bunch of other Reagans started popping up all over the church and then crawling through the aisles and like hissing at you, it was excellent. So it was like a stationary haunted house, like you just sat there and scared you to pep it around you? Yes, basically, it was great though. I don scared you to happen around you. Yeah, it's basically his great though.

Excellent air clubs. It. No, that's like that. So I remember going to a bug's life ride at California adventure. And there's a part where a bee pokes you in the back. It when you're sitting in your seat and I almost got up and left. I went to scary. I think so. This episode of Received Podcast brought to you by ExpressVPN.

I've told this story on the podcast before, but I'm gonna tell an abbreviated version. One time years ago, Jeff and I went to Universal Studios out in LA and Shane's telling me I'm a little out of focus. I'll get closer.

I went to the Universal Studios in, because the focus is like here. Anyway, I know, but get closer. I went to Universal studios in LA with Jeff and we went on that tram ride where they take you like tour of the park or whatever. And like the whole time, we were sitting next to this mother

who was with her really young son. Right. And anytime that we were going around and yeah, at the time like the mummy was one of the big franchises for Universal, anytime that the tram driver mentioned the mummy the little boy would start getting scared and say like, like the mummy was one of the big franchises for Universal. Any time that the the tram driver mentioned the mummy, the little boy would get started getting scared and say like, not the mummy, you let the mummy and the mummy be like, oh no, it's okay, you'd like, look, we're just driving by the jaws tanker, whatever.

And then like, there's one part in that tour where they act like, oh no, the normal way was supposed to take the tours broken. We're gonna have to go through this back empty sound stage that we don't use anymore. It just so happens that it's where we film the mummy and Well the edge of my seat Gus you go through it. It's like thing where it's like supposedly like it's really dark And they like they play these scary sounds and like they're supposed to like they missed you with water But supposed to be like beetles are spitting on you and the little boy fell onto the ground crying like he was supposed to be like beetles are spitting on you. And the little boy fell onto the ground crying. Like he was unconcullable.

And like I figured like that was, that's probably scarred him. He's probably still talking to a therapist about that visit to university studios to this day. Like I can't imagine being that scared, that young. Well, it was just supposed to be a tram ride. I'm sure the mother thought, he's scared of the mummy. This will be fine. And it's like, nope, you can't even, can't do that. Yeah, it's gonna be Jimmy Fallon talking to us for 30

minutes. This will this should be fine. Oh, no, I'm gonna fix my focus. You're gonna get extreme close up on this now. Okay, do you have anything like that that just guard you forever? Oh, alien. Alien. Yeah, the movie is. No, alien the creatures, you know, just aliens around the the great. Yeah, I think like alien when I was little like alien, the movie alien was super scary to me like the thought of an extra terrestrial creature whose blood was poisoned like even like if you try to hurt them that like the building blocks that make them are toxic and like could kill us. Like it was something that really like fucked me up when

I was little. Like the universe is really scary is what I realized at that point. And it just filled me with like an existential dread about what could be lurking in the universe. We have no idea of that would kill us without even a second thought. Just well, we don't even have an understanding of it. Right. You thought you thought a lot when you were a kid. Kale's without even a second thought. Just, well, we don't even have an understanding of it. You thought a lot when you were a kid. Yeah, yeah. I just thought it was a scary monster.

Yeah, I just didn't like when the Android was an Android. It was just like, oh my god, you looky blood. Come on, let's look. That's a milk. But my favorite thing about the alien universe is that really Scott doubled down on saying robot blood is milk. Yes, this is how it will always be. Yep, yep.

What about, remember Prometheus? Remember how that was gonna be something? We're up with Matthias came out and it was gonna be like, this is gonna be, like we're redoing the guys is back, aliens back baby. And then you watched it and you're like, I've seen this movie, it's alien. But then they made another one, covenant.

Yeah, and it has the little, like the monsters on top of the ship and stuff. Like he's like, bad, like he's on top of the ship. He's like running on it and walking and seeing it up and stuff. It's all fucked up. It's like, it's like, bright out and he's just like, I'm the alien, I am. I am.

I am a razzled asshole. I want to see Eric Photoshopped as the alien on the ship. Just hitting me with that old razzle dazzle. That's what it was. Like it was everything that was exciting about alien and aliens was like, you can't see these things. They're hidden in these corridors, even like the strongest military, like the bad asses of the bad asses, like couldn't stop these things.

There's only one person who could do it. And then like alien covenant is just like, but what if you saw it and it was kind of, it was just like, you just have to go, I don't think I finished that movie. I think I ericked that movie. Yeah. And I was like, I'm not finishing this. Yeah, it's that ericking a movie or a TV show is when you go, I get the point. We both know what's happening here,

and we're both done with it quite frankly. And you just walk away, you know, you put your cards on the table and you say, I'm done, I fold, and then you just walk off and you read a book'm done, I fold. And then you just walk off and you read a book or something because I, because it's a film. Yeah, they were trying to say the book.

That's right, did I bought the novelization of Alien Covenant and I read it? Oh, no. And it was so much more powerful when it said the alien was on the ship. Did you do something that scarred you, Cole? Yes, I did. I'm happy when it said the the alien was on the ship. Did you do something that scarred you cool? Yes, I did. Thank you for asking. What was it?

So we used to have this restaurant called the spaghetti warehouse. Oh, yeah. Wait a minute. I want to hear what scared him in the spaghetti world. What's it? The train cart inside the site. So yeah, well, we could go there for every birthday and every family occasion. Yeah. You'd go there and just hang out.

It's a good time. There's a lot of spaghetti. Well, one, the one thing is that every time we go, there'd be a clown who would come around and make balloon animals for you. But my brother and I, we were both little. We were scared. We weren't scared of clowns. We were just scared of that clown.

Yeah. And so we'd tell our mom, our order, our balloon animal animal order and then we'd hide under the table whenever the clown came Except for and this was the day that I knew that like nowhere was safe We were hiding under the table and we heard mom give the order and you're like, where's the kids? There's a own of the table and he came under there. Oh my god. Oh, no No, the table with us and we're like this is such a of the rules. Like this is against the contract of the spaghetti warehouse. Yeah, the social contract that everyone implicitly signs.

You go into the spaghetti warehouse. You see this spaghetti you signed the contract. You're good to go. Guys, can that be the title of this episode is against the contract of this spaghetti warehouse? Okay, cool. Thank you. Yeah, I was just been heartbreaking for that clown.

So, so what? No, no, no, no, Let's not defend the clown here. Yeah, no, I'm with Elise. I feel bad for it. It's just a guy trying to do his job and he just wants to entertain some of these kids. So we feel bad for the clown, but we feel bad for the little kid at the mummy ride.

Okay, I see. I want to hear more about the spaghetti warehouse. So because I, where did you go to the spaghetti warehouse? What's, where, where was that? I'm here for worth Texas for without Because I know there used to be one here in Austin as well used to be down like on second street I think and one time I was still there Yeah, it's still there. I was still there and The one time I was in California. I think I was in Sacramento and I was driving down the street

And there was a restaurant with nearly identical Branding at the spaghetti warehouse and it was called the old spaghetti factory And I just saw on chat. I'm talking about it. That's right. I know I know I know spaghetti factory It was like the same restaurant except in the western part of the United States It was the spaghetti factory, but for some reason here in Texas. I don't know what the difference is It was the spaghetti warehouse, but for some reason here in Texas, I don't know what the difference is. It was the spaghetti warehouse. I pulled a guilty admission. I pulled over an eight at the spaghetti factory because I was still like, what the fuck

is that? I was like, I got to see if it's the same thing. I feel like it's appealing to whatever your working class demographic is, right? Are you working in factories or are you working in warehouses? Well, maybe it's produced in LA and shipped to Texas. The spignained spaghetti warehouse implies a giant store of spaghetti. And I'm not talking about the pre-made noodles. I'm talking about the cooked spaghetti buckets.

Mountain high stacks of spaghetti that you can swim through like Scrooge McDuck. Yeah, it also applies an entire supply chain of spaghetti. Right. But that's what the factory is for. That's the supply chain. Yeah. They're creating, the factory creates the spaghetti, the warehouse is simply where they store it at least.

And ships it to the spaghetti warehouse where you have a spaghetti man who goes and picks up your spaghetti and delivers it to you at your home. Ah, the one, the whole, ah, I'm out on my old spaghetti delivery. How many families is looking for plates spaghetti? I put it all right next to the milk, the spaghetti tartans. That's why it's.

It's KC13 says on the East Coast, it's the spaghetti harbor. I'm sorry, you'll leave. No, that way, that's right. I think he's kidding, but we're gonna say. I'm just curious why the clown would be the de facto humanoid of the spaghetti delivery system. I agree, I agree with the Lisa, doesn't mean that. Not a magician, okay, not an animal handler.

Why would a magician? I, I, there was a restaurant that I would go to as a kid that where they would bring out a magician around the holidays to go around the tables, do you magic for the kids? What, what restaurant was that? I don't remember what it was. I think it's because we were in the stockyards at least.

And so that's like that rodeo vibe that like clowns the rodeo. Oh, it was a rodeo clown. This spaghetti warehouse. Like yeah, it was it was a rodeo clown making balloon animals at the spaghetti warehouse. Yeah, that's all of that sentence sounds like I had a warehouse. Yeah, that's that's all of that sentence. Sounds like I had a stroke, but in fact, that's even weirder.

Yeah, now you see why I was scared. I'm also not a real clown anymore. I don't agree with that part. Yeah, I was just saying, when is a barrel said like someone kicked him to the table and like you pops out? No, but that'd be a good way for him

to go from table table is getting a barrel and roll around. But the implication that that it's a rodeo clown doing this is that it's implying that there's a rodeo bull like a spaghetti bull. Is there a spaghetti bull? Well, that's what pulls the cart, the spaghetti cart. The bull. But yeah, the spaghetti bull. But hang on, at least as, at least as deep in thought on this too. Wouldn't you need the rodeo clown in case the spaghetti bowl got out of control? Yeah, oh Then case closed that's where we have a spaghetti clown

I and it also implies existence of a meatball nuke Boy relations Between the spaghetti clowns, the spaghetti bowl. Yeah. We had something similar in San Diego, and it was just called the omelette factory. And that's not nearly as good as what it spaghetti warehouse. What do they have there? What do you you're asking me what they have at the omelette factory? Yeah, like clown bowls. What did they got? He doesn, he doesn't mean the food, he means what?

Enter team, and they provide you while you stuff the congealed eggs down your gullet. Nothing, they just have breakfast, they've omelettes, they don't have a man, there's not like a annoyed type situation who like goes table to table with you. Can I tell you guys the most awkward experience I've ever had in my life. For a long time.

Just around entertainment cross food was pardon? Yes, let's go ahead. But I said, yeah, I'm scared. Oh, okay. I was at a vegan restaurant with a bunch of friends for someone's birthday. And so already at a vegan restaurant, you know. And so we're going to

have diarrhea at their town, basically, because all the food is being seasoned with all these, you know, they're so much fiber. Anyway, so we've come to the natural conclusion of our meal, but we're also just hanging around and chatting. And then someone comes out and moves like chairs out of the way. And then on some tables sets up a big piece of plywood and we're like, what the hell is going on? And then there's like a microphone comes out and then someone gets up on the mic and says, hey everybody, we've got some great stand up comedy.

Oh, no. At the vegan restaurant. And so we're at the natural point in our meal where we're like, oh, this is at an end. So the comic gets up and starts doing standup. But we're all like, we can't sit around here and just wait for the vegan standup to finish their set. I mean, I would assume they're vegan.

But I don't want to make that judgment. Anyway, not that they're anything wrong with being vegan. So then we're like, okay, well, do we get out? Do we go? Then we, like, ten of us just got up and vacated this table. That was right next to this stage question mark. And I felt so bad because I was like that person, you know, I really don't want to be addicted to them, but we can't, we can't, I don't know how long this is going to go for, we can't sit around here.

My bowels are churning. So do you think they have a stay at that vegan restaurant? Like every, every, like they have a show every night. I think that's good. I think in the weekend, they're like pop up the plywood we're doing stand up. Do you think that seeing all of Tena, you leave, like made him reconsider his career in standup comedy? I hope so.

I really, no, I hope not. I really hope not. I really hope not. What was that called? Maybe started doing standup, but the stake house after that. I just hope that that that comic was like, just kind of thought, you know, they are done their meal.

They're just leaving because they're done their meal. I talked to him and he didn't think that. Oh, he's like, he's like, He gave up on his dream. Yeah, he's like, he's like, I'm done with this. I don't wanna do this anymore. How come, how come, how, what is with vegan restaurants and like,

weird stuff like that? There's a place, I think it's a chain. I'm pretty sure it's a chain because it's a very weird place called Loving Hut. Gus, are you familiar with Loving Hut? I've never heard of Loving Hut. I'm looking it up now. Okay.

So here's what I know about Loving Hut. I've been there twice. Both times I had to sit in a waiting room where a small TV plays a VHS of a cult video. I guess it's called, I think it's owned by a cult C-O-T cult. It is a vegan restaurant that is like cult owned and operated is my understanding. So both times I've gone, I've seen their weird little video and the first time I went, I was like the food's good, this is fine, the second time I went. I said the same thing and then the guy that I was with

was kept like freezing on me because he was like coming down off ketamine. So it was a very, it's a weird place. So tail is all this time. Yeah. Can I read you a few things about loving hut that I just read here? Yes, please.

Holy moly. Yeah. Loving hut is a chain of vegan restaurants with each restaurant owned and offered independently. Uh, blah, blah, blah, whatever. Their slogan is be vegan, make peace. Uh, the lovinghood concept was created by Qing Hai, whose followers call her Supreme Master.

Uh, most restaurants broadcast Supreme Master TV, a channel inspired by master Qing Hai in their dining area is broadcasting 24 hours of positive news a day. In 2011, the Phoenix News Times wrote that detractors depict the loving huts as a recruiting mechanism for occult with the dictatorial leader who exploits her followers. The loving hut restaurant, soft pedal Ching Hai's messages through free literature, DVDs of high lectures, and the presence of TV screens fixed

to the Supreme Master TV satellite channel in every restaurant. Yeah, there you go. It sounds delicious, Eric. I'm going to be honest with you. Oh, hey, up straight up. Great vegan food. I lived with like nine vegans in college. Like, one would move out and one would move in. There was just no conversation about it. It just, it simply happened. And loving Hut was a great little place that you could go to and be like, oh, I can enjoy a meal here. And vegan food has come a long way. It has come a very long way from where it was in the early 2000s. The, uh, it looks like, it looks like the closest one to

us in Houston. Oh, let's road trip. Let's jump in your little Tesla and beep, beep, drive all the way out there. Let's do a podcast, a cruelty free podcast. first time ever. I love it. Oh, I think it's great. The Ching Hai Wikipedia page has a lot Going on Yeah, there's like controversies like band in China High gave 640 $640,000 to Bill Clinton's presidential legal expense trust Oh, are we breaking story on the podcast? Breaking story, Ching Hai.

Can I, sorry, I didn't need to take us in this direction and then go immediately in another direction, but it got me thinking, and I need to vent about something quickly. You talked about positive news being played at loving hut.

I'm all for that positive news. Great stuff. Uh, John Krasinski's only good news or whatever fucking thing he made and then sold the CBS makes me so mad. It makes my, I'm like, I'm like shaking. I'm so upset thinking about it. I'm like shaking. I'm so upset thinking about it. It was, he fleeced so many people into whatever that was and then sold it for so much money and it disappeared and he just went, eh, like, he is daily and on top of the covenant ship. He's gone.

I don't understand. He's Jim from the office. Yeah. And I hate it. I hate, he used his goodwill for as Jim from the office to make his good, only good news thing, whatever that was called. And then sold it to CBS after two episodes. He's like, we're only doing good news here.

And then he sold it for a bunch of money and it's just fucking vanished. What was that? Are you mad because he's not giving you good news anymore, Eric? Do you want to get a hold of him? I'm mad. I'm mad. Here's the reason I'm mad. He's still your idea because it is something that I think that is praying on people who are looking for positivity and good news. Great, great, great stuff. I think there's nothing wrong with that.

You can't just in and date yourself with all the negativity all the time. I understand that's great. He did that under the guise of like, I'm bringing you positive news, did like two episodes and then just sold it for a bunch of money. He went, you're fuck you and then now it's gone. Now there's not anything.

So what was the point? Was the point the money? Was the point the making of the good news thing? What was the, what was it? What was, what feels worse is that it seemed like a genuine idea at first. Oh, I want to do something to put goodwill out there. And then the second like a dollar sign got attached to it. He was like, Oh, absolutely. That one. Look, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. And I understand. And that is what I believe. John Krasinski sold out to the almighty dollar. No more good news, only bad news. Have you noticed that since he left? There's all the good news. He took the good news. He sold it to no, he did

not. He did nine episodes. What are you bitching about that's not and now where is it Gus? Where is it? It's dead along with all of our hopes and dreams for the world That's what I'm saying He if the goal if the goal was to make a show Then make the show, but if the goal was to sell the show Then that's fine But it did not feel like the goal was to sell the show. So him selling the show was but it did not feel like the goal was to sell the show. So him selling the show was, to me, it feels like

flasing people. It feels like flasing people. I'll be honest, I had not heard of the show. I had not no idea what you were talking about. I had to go all the time to find out. It makes me feel like I get like, I'm like angry. I'm like vile like just like the air. Second week, I'm either.

It was like the second week of quarantine. And it was just like, oh, I found a video of a cat. And he was sure it. I post this such a scenario for Eric. Please. You report to be this somewhat rat-to-itist character. Do we do this rat thing? Character.

Correct. Universal Studios comes to Eric. They come knocking on the door. They say, Eric, we want our own mouse mascot. We want to Eric, they come knocking on the door, they say, Eric, we want our own, you know, mouse mascot. We want to Eric the rat. Well, to this time, you've only been doing it for the delight of your co-workers and fans. Are you going to sell the Eric, rat likeness and character to these studios? At least I've been doing what you call a rat character the entire almost 35 years of my life where I'm constantly

just hunched and sort of like this. Like, it's not so much, it's less of a rat and more of a guy in a mobster movie. He goes, yeah, boss, yeah, yeah. That's kind of, that's kind of my whole demeanor. You know what I mean? The universal wants it. They're really paying. I'm fine with that because I didn't call it good news rat man. And self-to-beomers, good news question. You should absolutely make good news rat man. If you make a show for a Rister, do you think called good news rat man? I think really like Seraphim. Good news rat man's one of the new adventures, right? Like he's gonna be in like the new MCU. He's in the multi-nurs. Can we spit ball and break this show?

Cause I really want this to be, can we, but it should be called, it should be good news, common Ratman. Right. Like, well, like a welcome back codder situation where I'm the titular codder. However, I am the Ratman.

Wait, are you saying good news to rat? Like, Rat man, we got some good news for you. It's unclear. Yeah. Right now. Yeah, the comma kind of gums it up. Right, but that's the thing. It doesn't, it's, you know, face jam, space jam.

You kind of, you know, you get away with some stuff. So you can kind of make it whatever you want. So good news, Rat man could really be whatever you want it to be. You can be like a Christian rat. You can be like, have you heard the good news? Oh. You think it's kind of like a door to door knocking on. Colt, I think it's like a cult that you're trying to sell.

Oh, like in my restaurant. Yeah. I'm picking it. I kind of pictured it. I pictured like a Mr. Rogers time. Oh. Ratman is the titular Rogers character. And Gus would play like the friendly neighbor.

Yeah. And I would be the woman that Ratman has trapped in his basement. Yeah. But it's, it's, it's Ratman. Is Ratman in a rat suit? Or how do you, it was just like a normal person who wears a brain a lot?

Heavy prosthetics. Like, yes. Oh, wow. Wow, she went away. Yeah. I thought it was gonna be a Beakman's World situation where a guy was just kind of in a rat costume. I like that level of prosthetics where it was put the little nose on.

You've got ears on a hat and then sort of a rat costume that you wear a white t-shirt under. That's my level of commitment to these rats. No, this is the reason you might be from Pan's Labyrinth. Like that's the level we want to see. I don't know if I like that. I don't know if good news, Ratman is feeling so good because then it's, I guess it would work because it would really accentuate my rat features, not so much in my look with

the heavy prosthetics, but the way that I would carry myself in my body would definitely be more like, oh, I'm here. This is my only way. It's not, you were going to hire Andy Circus to play the rat. I'm here. Yeah, I got that way. I can see that. It's not you. We're gonna hire Andy Circus to play the rat. I'm sorry. That's smart.

I'll be on straight up. I think it's a great idea. He can be an eight man. He can be a Darth Maul. He can do anything. That guy's versatile. He's way better at this than I am. 100%.

Yeah. Since you're so small, you can be tiny on top of his head pulling his hair and controlling it. Oh, like a Ratatouille Ratman. Like Ratatouille. Oh, that's smart. I think Cole would be the kind of like mailman character that he's like, Oh, spaghetti man.

Oh, spaghetti man. Oh, okay, spaghetti man slash mailman character. Yeah. And you're always trying to, spaghetti. When you deliver the mail, you're always trying to like serve Ratman with papers. Yeah.

Yeah. Man's trying to avoid them man with papers. Yeah. Yeah, man's trying to avoid them. Uh oh, it's the spaghetti man. And he's here to give me my divorce papers. We've been on a trial separation. And I'm not feeling it. And I do think us, it would be the neighbor.

But he's also under, he's also under cover FBI. Oh, I'm like, I'm like trying to like put a tap on rat man's phone. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I could be trying to like put a tap on Ratman's phone. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I could be trying to like steal the good news before he can spread it. Oh, I get a scoop on him. Classic FBI.

Classic FBI was trying to steal the good news. I can Krasinski it and sell it for a few million dollars. Yeah. As well as every episode. Oh, sorry, go ahead. As well as your papers, I could be constantly trying to slip in bad news. Yeah. The sky is just good news.

Everyone's out to get the rat man. Everybody wants to hurt the rat man with bad news. Good news, but good news, Ratman, you're gonna come out ahead. Yeah. Definitely every episode to start with someone saying, good news, Ratman. Ah, like it's a phone call that Ratman takes a phone call.

Sometimes it's good news, Ratman, or you know, Gus walks up good news, Ratman. It's never actually good news. Yeah, this definitely feels like a Peewee's kind of playhouse. That's exactly like a puppet's everywhere. Right. But it is just sort of like a studio apartment where my bed is constantly in the shot because I sleep. Look, we have to like move it to like, oh, we need like a better shot.

Hang on. Let me, you grab one side of the futon bed. We'll set it up. So that way it's back to being a futon. It's a Murphy bed. It'll just go into the wall. Hey, though, I, I helped build a Murphy bed one time and I was like a afraid of it.

That, the, the spring loaded action in which a Murphy bed goes back into a wall is like terrifying. Yes, dangerous is a great word for it. It happens fast. So it doesn't even sleep in the Murphy bed while it's up. He hides there from the first. Yeah, I was trying to give me bad news or if I go back into the wall. Death by news news says we should make you a rat Vtuber.

Oh, that's a good idea. That's a really good idea. I don't want to do it. It sounds like it costs money, but I think that's a great idea. Absolutely. I had an idea to try to make Gus a V-tuber. I think I want to make Gus a V-tuber. What would you do it?

Nobody wants to be my real face. Would you do it? Would you do it? Yeah. The Gus V-tuber began to be. Yeah. Would it be what? Would you do it? The Gus B2 or B2? Or B2? Yeah. Would it be what?

And Gus. Yeah. Like, like, and Gus comes out of the shadow and all of a sudden. Yeah. Final reveal, debut, debut. Yeah. Like, what would you, if you could make a V2, or of yourself, like, would you want it to like an anime version of Gus, or would you be like, you know, your dog or something?

Yeah, like an anime version of me, maybe like the old comics version of me. Like that kind of thing. Ooh, yeah. Here, look. Interesting. I wonder, like, I wonder if that's doable. I'll have to look into it. I'm going to look into it.

This is something like, this is a conversation I was already having. So I wonder. Or we can talk, we can talk. I've been doing research. I've been doing research. Cool. This is a good idea. I think V2 Gus is a very good idea.

At least do we have your sign off to do V2 Gus? We have your blessing. Wait, so are we making good news, Ratman? V2 Gus is a character in it. Yeah, and Gus will be the detective on the TV. It's like, good news, Ratman. Yeah. And Gus will be the like the detective on the TV is like, good news, Ratman. I have news. I'm going to get you. I think I think I would love to be too.

And so I'm just trying to understand if V2, Bergus is a character within good news, Ratman. Uh-huh. Right. You seem to be like, you seem to be straining to figure out how it is. That's me in every meeting when we have to go over something for the third time. It's just me leaning back going, no, it's not. Let's just let's circle back.

Here's the thing is I love I love mixed media and art forms. So I would love it. My character was a puppet. Gus is a Vtuber. You're the rat man. Coles the man man. Oh, this is I'm loving this. This is going really good.

I think this is a great idea. I'm looking the wrong This is going really good. I think this is a great idea. I'm looking the wrong way. Hold on. My favorite thing about coming on the RT podcast is breaking stories. Yeah, this is what we do here. This is a news forward podcast. This is the new thing.

High, come on the show. Wow. And feel spread her good news to everyone. Yeah, I really like V2 for Gus. This is really working for me. V2 for Gus has an error about him. Yeah, at least we need to figure out what your character's all about in Good News, Ratman.

There's somebody who's listening to this podcast who hates this bit and they're just going shut up about Ratman. No, I think about Ratman. That's bad news, Ratman. It's definitely a Stockholm syndrome thing. Oh, where she's been in the basement of Ratman for long enough now.

She's the only one who can protect me. He's the Ratman says that there's a lot of bad in the basement of Ratman for long enough now. She's the only one who can protect me. He's the Ratman says that there's a lot of bad in the world. It's kind of like a live situation. And she's a princess. Oh, wow. Wow. Wow. I keep out of nowhere.

Yeah. I like that you're making your character everything you want. Yeah. And they say lightning doesn't strike twice. Whoa. Listen, we're trademarking this right now. Don't anyone have to steal good news, Ratman. It's, this is really something.

Or we're gonna serve you papers if you try to steal it. Yeah, that's, man, we should, we should make an intro for the show, like to kind of set the tone and prove the concept it. Yeah, okay. So we got to work, we got a nail down our characters and put together like a 90 style, and so montage of like Ratman doing various things and avoiding his enemies and, you know, getting and giving good news.

Well, the questions are who are Ratman's enemies? I think that his enemies are also his friends. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's a big frenemy situation. He's, he's got nothing but frenemies. Frenemies coming out the ass for rat man. It's tough. We should have an episode where he addresses his frenemies. Yes. On this episode, he will address his fet his his frenemies. Number one will be like a very evil kind of squirrel. Number two, Ratman's number two enemy is God himself. God doesn't have to make an appearance,

but he is against Ratman. Number three will be like the spaghetti man or something. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We got room. The list is long. Yeah. I think this is like the season one finale is like, right? Ratman addresses his haters. There should be a log line for an episode that's just like Ratman apologizes and then takes it back. That's the episode description. I like that I don't know exactly what Ratman does or who he is,

but I feel him in my bones. I really identify with this character. I want to know all about it. There should be the kind of thing where people ask Ratman why he doesn't work. And he says he has an explanation for why he can't hold the job. Yeah. I like the one that Ratman apologizes, what good news did he deliver that wasn't apology? Right.

But in hindsight, in order for it to stay good news, he has to take it back. Yeah. Yeah. It should be like, you know how an unsigned fellow Kramer had the job at the bagel place, but then he didn't, the reason he wasn't working was because they've been on strike for 15 years or whatever.

I didn't want to close it. Yeah, he didn't want to cross the picket line. There should be something like that for Ratman. Where Ratman, like, everyone's like, Ratman, you're always home. And Ratman's like, well, no, I can't, you know, I can't work because that's why I was it. Yeah, right.

It's kind of like a Joker. How did I get these scars situation? But it's a Ratman talking about why he can't work. He's not allowed. It's kind of like a Janis and Sopranos. Maybe it could be like Carpool Tum. He's a professionally trained chef, but if he works in a kitchen, the health inspector fails the restaurant.

Oh, see, that's tough. It's just a number. It's a catch 22. Yeah. And that's one of his freindemies. He can't even bow. He's one of his freindem Oh see that's tough. It's just a K-22. And that's one of his enemies. Elton Spector is one of his frenemies. That's tough. The health inspectors like, I don't want to do this to your rat man, but I have no choice.

Yes. Right. It says right here, man, we can't have any rats in the kitchen. That may be a great souffle. Oh, the health. Okay, so a whole new thing. The health inspectors should definitely be his roommate. Yeah. Wow. So Ratman's always trying to get a new Oh, the hell the hell. Okay, so a whole new thing, the health inspector should definitely be his roommate. That's what I'm saying. Wow. So Ratman's always trying to get a new restaurant job

and sneak it behind the back of his friend of me, best friend of me, the health inspector. So like he comes back from work and he's got like spaghetti sauce on his shirt and the health inspector's like, why is there spaghetti sauce on your shirt, Ratman? He's like, oh, I was at the supermarket and a jar exploded on me.

Ratman's like, no, that's blood. That's right. That's blood. That's spaghetti sauce. No, that, the, I was at the supermarket and a jar exploded on me. Batman's like, no, that's blood. That's right. That's blood. It's forgetting sauce. No, that I already about that blood. Oh, man. That's definitely blood.

Guys, I think we have to change the title of this episode to good news, Ratman. Good news. Ratman. I mean, this is just, this is really something. I think in two years, when we have like 36 episodes of good news, Ratman, this will be like the, like people will be like, where did it all begin? How did he entertain it tonight

will be interviewing us and they'll be like, where did the idea of Good News Ratman come from? We'll be like, well, listen to the RISD podcast and find out where we just all be together. Good news with John Krasinski. That's some of them. Yeah, there'll be spin offs like, what do you know, Ratman? Yeah, hurt you, Ratman. Yeah, we'll make eight episodes and then we'll sell it to CBS. It's gold. That's what you're doing. Yeah.

This episode of the received podcast about two bars shows new sponsor, Better Help Online Therapy. I think I speak for everyone when I say that 2020 and 2021 have been different and those differences can be difficult to deal with. It can be so hard to open up and talk about the things that we're struggling with, but when everyone's dealing with something, it gets easier to do it. There's so many people battling their temper, the stress, depression, anxiety, PTSD, the list goes on.

I mean, everything going on in the world in the past year has been overwhelmed, even for me. It's just there's a lot going on. Better help is customized online therapy that offers video, phone, and even live chat sessions with your therapist, so you don't have to see anyone on camera if you don't want to. It's like me, I normally, I wouldn't, I'd want to, close that if we weren't doing a podcast,

I'd probably turn it off. It's much more affordable than in-person therapy. You can start communicating with the therapist in under 48 hours. You join the millions of people who are seeing what therapy is really all about. It's always a good time to invest in yourself because you are your greatest asset.

I love Batman. This is more thought than John Krasinski put into his fucking good news show. This is more. Ratman has characters. It's deep in mythos. There's like, there's lore.

There's understanding. There's character arcs. There's enemies. John Krasinski just went, oh, did you see that the prairie dog get the zoo? He's he had a birthday party. It's like, they

CBS for $8.9 million or whatever. Yeah, and it should, it should be that every episode, Ratman learns a new life lesson. Yeah. Something that, you know, something morality that would make him actually be a better person. Right. But then also every episode, he goes into his rat hole at night to go to sleep and then trips over and exposed wire in the electro shop like wipes his memory. Forget the whole day.

Yeah, every every every episode he slips on ice and just like gets a concussion and can't remember anything or like his bedrooms in the basement. He's got carbon dioxide poisoning and he doesn't. Yeah, and it's like, yeah, I forget everything. In chat, who was it? I think two finger typists said, Rackman was working at spaghetti factory, but he got let go. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it.

I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it.

I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it.

I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn't realize it. I didn got let go. This is why I'm his friend of me. Yeah.

It's going to be for life. Yeah. But I also think, no, well, what if, I mean, what if he gets fired for a completely unratulated, related, like he's just, he's been sleeping with too many of the customers.

Yeah. I think that, I mean, another thing that he could be fired for is, he gets hired at a vegan restaurant and there it's day one and he's gonna do do some stand-up comedy and everyone's real excited about it's a full house and then he gets up there and they tap on the mic and they go, ladies in general, we like to welcome our stand-up comedian and then as soon as he stands up there, a group of 10 people just walk out and I think that and then he gets fired.

That is a great question, which is what is Ratman's dream? What is he trying to achieve? What is he trying to achieve? Yeah. He just wants to stand up and be rich with his wife and get back together for the kids. He just tired of living in the studio. He wants to move back in and patch things up. He has rat children or are they like, is he like a dog dad?

You know, they're like, they're like dog dad. Totally human normal children. Oh, just like regular children. It's like, so so rat man is the human size that you are correct Eric? I he would have to be I assume. Yeah, we can figure out how to shrink me. Well, you can't more any circus size, but yes.

Yeah. So is it like you go into his house and it's a very human house, but then there's a giant rat shaped bowl. That's he retreats in tears. Because he has a roommate. Like he has a roommate and he goes into his normal center. Yeah. And there's also the room down to the basement

where the princess who's also a captive lives. But at night, he just wants to be there. There's like a beaded curtain, you know, in front of just like a big rat hole that's carved into a wall and he goes, all right, good night. And then he pulls the beaded curtain back and he goes in to his right hole. And everyone in the house goes, good night, rat man. I don't know what we've made, but it's gold. I can tell you that.

It's really good. You can check it out on research teeth first. Yeah, it would have to be a first to justify the expense. Yeah, it's gonna go into good news It's gonna be those expensive We can sell it to CBS for eight put seven million dollars. Yeah, that's that's the goal We're just gonna shoot it like a multi-cam sitcom on on the stage on the stage five stage It we're not we don't know how to do that. We've never shot a sitcom before. Fuck it. We're just gonna wing it.

We're just gonna say, we're about, Shane's got it. Shane's got to figure it out. As a studio audience, should just be the employees working on it. And if they like, it's like a podcast when we're in the studio

where it's like, we let it's me and Nick laughing in the background, but I'm on the show. So how did that happen? Oh, all right. What? I'm everywhere. If only we had the technology for this. No,

at least I'm all about this. I'm excited for good news, Ratman, to live on the Funhouse channel. Yeah, I can't, I can't wait. Because, I think when we were in court, when we, when we first were doing these podcasts from home, and I think the first episode that we had at least on after we started working from home, she helped develop the Night Raker. And I've got the Night Raker poster.

Oh yeah. Now I can't wait to get a good morning Rattman poster. Good news, right? Good news, right man. Good news, Rattman. Good news, right man. I'm thinking of good morning from hell. People are probably going to be going from hell.

Good news, right man. And put it over there. There's a way to like deep fake voices to get Robin Williams to do good morning, wrap man. The posters should definitely say good morning, wrap man. And then morning is cross-dash. Out in the morning. Good news.

Oh, yeah, I really, I hope that we build out an entire universe on our T-Pock. Every time I'm on, we, you know, I've been enjoying this. This is me too. Good news, Raker. I was really doing a lot of heavy lifting in this episode. I do think the Night Raker and Rattman could be some kind of dynamic.

They are fun amies. They are fun amies. Yeah, like most relationships with Rattman. They do not like him, but they tolerate him. It's complicated. Yeah, it should be that the Knight Raker, who is a neighbor of Ratman every night when he goes out to rake, he finds Rat droppings by Batman. Rat man. Right, but they're like human signs. It just pieces of shit. He looks over and Ratman is just looking above the fence. Just staring at it. Oh, hello, Mr. Knight Raker.

Did you enjoy my dropping? I left you something. This is a good idea. That's, I love it. Let me get Tom Warner on the phone right now. Yeah, get all the Warner. Well, at least has an in with her new show. It's, it's, that we know people now. It's falling into the bros. Yeah. Are you, are you going to be reviewing a good news, right,

man, on your new podcast? Yeah. They said that there is a conflict of interest because no one wants to watch this. They just kept saying, who the fuck is this for? And it was weird because we were in a really corporate meeting. I never used that kind of language. Well, Gus, how's the chatter in the chat? Did they, are they excited for some news wrap? The people love it. In fact, computer Ronin says, good morning,

Ratman can be Ratman's podcast. Stop saying good morning, Ratman. Did you hear what I said? It's Ratman's podcast in the show. Do you think? Oh, I see. Okay. Yeah, that's good. Okay.

Okay. So he's definitely a podcast. 100% 100% is a podcaster to no one. No one listens to good morning, Ratman. No, who would want to listen to a good morning, Ratman? But he spent too much money on his setup to give up now. This has to be the thing. This has to work. This has to be the thing. This has to work.

This has to bring back Denise and the kids. There's no other way. Oh. I also think like we should definitely at some point RTX or whatever do a good more because good news, rap man. I fucked it up. What?

I fucked it up. I put the morning right in and everyone said. Yeah, you blew like in our heads, it's all fucked up. I put the morning right. Yeah, yeah, you blew like in our heads, it's all fucked up. But that's cool because then if we start. So we start the show. Yeah. Good news, Ratman. But we also start the podcast. Good morning, Ratman, which is an in character podcast with Ratman and him just grumbling about his troubles. They're all 12 minute episodes. None of them are good or interesting. But that's his podcast. I'll say at RTX, that should be the only time you can hear good morning, Ratman, because he doesn't know how to upload it. He's like, well, I finally got a live audience.

So I can finally invent you so we can hear me. He's going to pull out like a, like a, like a little pocket recorder and a megaphone. Oh, guys, I'm calling it now. Six seasons make a phone. I don't know. Yeah, I'm gonna give. Yeah. Oh, look, guys, I'm calling it now. Six seasons in a movie. I mean, I think I'll take that. Take that, you can't. Now what? Do something about it. Oh my God.

I love Ratman. Ratman's the tape my life. Yeah, he's really something. Ratman was there. There's one set of footprints on the sand, and that's when Ratman was carrying me. What? Whoa.

Yeah, he's pretty, he's pretty, uh, pretty blust. I gotta say, Chad's loving it. I think I'm gonna be upset if we don't make this. I mean, I just think it would really be all part. Someone said everybody loves Ratman. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. wasn't even in the mall park. I don't know if I can do a, I can't do like a Ray Romano oppression. Like there's certain words. Well, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like,

it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like,

it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like, it's kind of like I can't you're really good. I think Ray Romano's hacking our podcast. Yeah, well That's it. It's a I say

Peachy Keenan chat says that rat man needs to sell books The show needs Why? No, it's to sell a subscription to his sign or his theme point of, uh, uh, the point of goodness, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell,

the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell,

the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, the cell, Oh fuck. Oh my god. Call it. Ratman calls a design and everybody goes, isn't it pronounced?

He goes, no, look at how it's spelled. No. He's got a podcast. Dan is seeing. He's got all his decades covered. Yeah, he's like, he's just like fuck face. He's got all these, it's a whole mess of DIY shit. I'm like lightheaded.

That like, we really went down like a rat hole with that one. That's something. Holy shit. I don't think we I I I how do you how do you want? I was just thinking I don't know what transition out of good news. No, no. I'm exhausted.

I'm exhausted out of rap man. I just everyone says like Eric is so funny. Such a talent. He needs a vehicle and I think this is it. You think it's you think it's me and rat prosthetics. I think it's limited prosthetics, limited select prosthetics. I think it's good news throughout, man. 100% and the thing is, you can film it in Austin,

you do the puppet, I'll voice the puppet. I don't need to need to do that. That can be ADR. Yeah, you can just do the, we'll have someone else do the puppet voice, you can just do it later, ADR it. It do the the puppet voice. You could just do it later ADR it It's good, but what I think we make it really obvious ADR like we're trying I think the thing about this show is that it's gonna look like we're trying to be avant-garde But really it's just that we're like hopeless and we don't know how to make a show like this

So it's like oh they like did not do sound mixing on this and it's like yeah, I don't know how to do that So it's just this is just kind of what you get You know, yeah, I bought a coexilar mini. I just use that Oh man good. Oh wow good news rat man gets a picture and everything and it's just boy It's just me looking like a rat this is picture a picture. Peter H just sent me this. Peter H and Chat want to put this in here. Great job. He crossed it out.

Let's go, let's go full screen on us. Can we have the single on me? Look at that. Look at that. Good, good. No, no. I like the colorful background and the font that's used here. This is very much what I imagined in my head except,

and look, I don't want to criticize Peter because he does a great job. To me, the word news is written in Sharpie quickly. Yeah. Also, there's no giant rat prosthetic on your face. That's, well, yeah, I know. That's just kind of how I look all the time. Like imagine you roll out of bed and you look in the mirror

and you go, well, well, it's again, and that's just what it is all day. Every day. Good morning, rat man. Every morning you look morning, Ratman. Every morning, you look in the mirror. Yep.

Sometimes you drink too much, and then you just put two hands on the, on the sink, and then you look and, you just like look directly in your eyes into the mirror, and you go, what is this? Every day. What is this? This is it. This is everything. It doesn't change.

This is just who you are. You just not think you've chosen to be this. It's what you were given. And then, then, you throw up, and then you fall asleep. Good news, right, man? Good news, right, man. Sound? I can't wait. It's coming 2022. Wow, that's really soon. It's soon, we got to get working on it. Yeah, I mean, by our standards, that's very quick. Yeah, that's very quick. We, I mean, it's almost the end of Q1 2021. I mean, yeah, I was about that earlier.

Crazy. So I would argue that we could get this show turned around if it had little to no oversight, which I think it will. I agree. I agree. I think Lewis, hands off, Ryan, hands off, Jordan Levin. I'll let you see rough cuts, but no notes. And that's how we ask.

Who else can keep handle? Candy's Rap Man is definitely a no note. Yeah, we... You have to go back and fix this. I dare say we do not. I think it's done. I think we released it already. It's every video you made in high school.

Yeah. What do you mean re-end? I do. I know I'm said earlier that I think every episode should end with Rap Man going through his giant human-sized rat hole, but I also think every single episode should end with Ratman turning off the lights and closing the door in a very poignant way. And like it's like like treat every episode like it's gonna be the

like it's gonna be the last one. It makes me think of like the incredible Hulk TV show where he sat and hit Hiking down the road like his thumbs just out and the sad piano music's playing. Yeah, yep. And he turns to the empty room and goes, good night, Ratman. It turns off the lights. I noticed, uh, Javin in chat said, we want Ruby. I mean, I definitely think there is a way to seed Ratman as a character in Ruby.

Yeah, I don't, but we could try to get Ruby in there. Well, this Ruby in front of me. Well, no, no, no, I think they want Ratman in Ruby. Yeah. I mean, the hard part with that is that some of us have voiced, some of us who are Ratman have voiced characters in Ruby who are now fucking dead. So, there might be, you know, someone over there Where they go? This guy sounds like this guy sounds like the main character of Ruby forest and You know, I just you know we have to see what happens. I guess Eddie Revis. I leave it to you

Well, they could change they could change for us. It's voice. They could say we've had an actor change to forest That's good. I like that. That's smart. We hit the higher Which iconic? Hey doing you think Mac McConnell Hale come in and do like some forest stuff as long as he's not running for governor of Texas. Yeah, I don't think it is. But he might not because we will have a plotline where Ratman runs for

governor of Texas. 100% Matti McConnell. Yeah, he never files the paperwork, but he is telling people that he's going to be fixing things right here. Just like you just have to write him in for now because they're at the end. Oh, no, for now.

Listen, listen, listen, this time write me in, but next time I promise it'll be official. Oh, man, this is great. Good morning, Ratman, the podcast, good news, Ratman, the television program. I think this is great. I stand with Ratman, the political movement. That's great. I, hey, I think coming to HBO Max, no problem. They got everything on there. If they got CLAB 2021 on HBO Max, we can get good news, Ratman.

I think they need to switch their slogan from where HBO meets so much more to where HBO meets Ratman. And everyone goes, why do they change it to this? What the fuck is Ratman? But we just need to work on some rat man brand awareness. It'll be there. It'll get there.

It feels like what, 40 years to work on their brand. Yeah. I think we can get there in what, four months with rat man. And what's a static screen? No, that we need not be more. Now it's, now it's rat man. You turn it on. You want to watch season three of the sopranos.

It's not a static screen. It's just me going Let's say the same effect just like MGM has the lion HBO Max will have rat man And we're definitely gonna have happy male style toys. Yes, you can purchase that spaghetti wear 100% Of right man? Oh, spaghetti warehouse? Oh, man. Spaghetti warehouse,

Ratman toys is all these, none of these children want them, but boy, they are forced on, go take four, take five. Give them to your friends. Yeah, there's a clown by the door and every time a kid's leaving, uh, shoves a Ratman toy at them,

it has no points of articulation. It's just a statue and it looks terrible. And we go, well, that's rat man. He decided to do this. He said he knew a guy and was just gonna get it done instead of going through the proper channels and doing it right. The Arlington one is closed,

but the Houston one is open for curbside and non-contact delivery. That's gonna be a big part of the marketing way. The spaghetti warehouse in Austin was the third location ever. Wow, and now it's just a big building that says spaghetti warehouse on the side, but I don't know what's inside of it. Because not spaghetti.

It's a bar. That's where we had an artics party there before, right? What's that bar called? Market, the market. Oh, the market was spaghetti warehouse. Yeah, like the market is on the end of the spaghetti warehouse building. Like if you're on, wow, if you're on second-street staring at the market, that building, if you look to the left, that big building, like that was the spaghetti warehouse. I think by spaghetti to market. No, I'm not like that. Didn't we film an RT podcast there? Yes, yes, that building.

We filmed our RT podcast at the Spaghetti Warehouse. At the market. Holy moly. The spaghetti, wait, what's the market, Shorpor is at the spaghetti market? Yeah. I don't think so. You buy and sell Spaghetti.

I do, I do, I was thinking about it. You've all seen WandaVision, right? Yeah. Oh, absolutely. Yeah. I do think we should do the dichotomy that WandaVision does, the dynamic they do where like you're in the world with Wanda and then you get pulled out with the agents. And I definitely think since Gus would be playing the undercover FBI agent, we do see

him in the world of Batman, but then we take all these characters out of the world. It's Gus in the truck, the ice cream truck outside, and it's actually a tactical, a full-of-all kind of surveillance man. And I think we're getting there. I think we've got enough evidence on Batman that we might be able to process.

I love this here. It has to be shot in four by three. Yeah, it has to be shot in four by three. First cinematic, by creative vision. But that's his vision. Like this is great because that's like the best episode of the sopranos is the third, is the first episode of season three, I think, Mr. Regario's neighborhood, where it is just following all the FBI guys who are trying to plant something in Tony

soprano's house so they can like listen to like a wire and that's the whole episode It's all like in their vans and back it like their headquarters And so I think if every episode of Good News Ratman ends like season three episode one of a soprano's I'm all for it I think that's great. We got involved with these other people. It's just Gus. Yeah, Gus, we see his turn in and you know, it's good. Yeah, just do it. Gus, are you still in?

Yeah, I'm just laughing because in chat, Risa Reno says, I had won division. He started to tune in, but somehow it's still Ratman? Yeah. Well, that's the second season. That's the second season. It's still a rat man. Yeah.

He didn't go in it. He was talking thought. He's still here a rat man. I kind of feel bad for that person. Like they've tuned us out. Like they're different. We sent them to the peak to them back in. And they're like, what?

There's people that fuck, this is going to be that episode of the podcast where people go a fucking love the rat man thing and then other people go This is the worst fucking episode of this podcast ever done For an hour talking about this man who's a rat. I think he's divorced, but not really he's keeping a woman hostage There's a pretty salesman. So fucking, we gotta get with Hannah. Hannah, I know you're watching this. Hannah McCarthy, thank you so much for all the work you do around Rooster Teeth.

I know you're watching this. And thank you for being a first member. Yes, and thank you for being a first member by virtue of working at the company. I appreciate it, Hannah. I need you to start building a deck for this show. It's not really to pitch it to anyone because we are making it whether they say yes or no.

This is for internal use. Yeah, it's mostly just for happenstance to be like, do you guys have a deck for that? And we go, yeah, it's already approved. We can show it in Halleach or Comic Con. Yeah. And then we do that. We come back to where she said, you need to us. Yeah, we made this you need to pay us

We did not do this because we wanted to we did this because we had to you think we wanted to do this is that what you think You think we did we wanted it more than anything so what? So what now pay us This is my favorite episode of this podcast. Wow, this is the kind of stuff that I do every time I come on here. Just bullshit. Yeah. And then I get a new poster behind me. Yep.

I'm going to have good news, Ratman and good morning, Ratman. Yeah, you two posters out of this one. Good morning, Ratman, the good news Ratman podcast. By Ratman himself. The merch. Ratman merch. Oh, Ratman merch. People are gonna fuck. We need to have two shirts that say like, I stand with Ratman and another one that says,

I hope Ratman fucking dies. Because that's, I think that's gonna be like the real vibe that we give this one. I was just gonna say whatever Bart Simpson shirt exists replace it with a rat man Do the rat man. Yeah, people this time next year kids are gonna be doing the rap Yeah, don't have a rat man. Oh And rap rap is also with it. Yeah Talking about doing wipits, this is my new favorite show one.

It sounds, you know, when you say do the rat man, it sounds like a dance or something. Right, no, it's just, it's just going out and doing whippet. It's going behind the seven, eleven with your friends, you're doing whippets and going, this is it, huh?

Do the rat man, I hate the rat man. Do the rat man. I'm like, she's hitting. I'm frothing at the mountain to do the rat man.
