Nope. I'm Barbara. I'm Andrew. And I'm Gavin. What are you? You're Drew. I'm Drew. You're not. And I'm Gavin. What's up? You're Drew. I'm Drew. You're not Gavin.

I just have been in his seat. I felt an up. Oh, and I told you before the show, I'm going to ask only stupid questions this whole time. Or have bizarre observations. Listen, just because he's farted in that seat a bunch doesn't make it happen. I mean, there's a groove.

You're in the Gavin groove. And it's still, I'm still wafting. It's like as I shift weight, I can wafse up. Gavin is the king of questions that like on the surface seems stupid. And then you're like, that's the stupid. Wait, what? And then it like it causes you to like,

like a shadow falls across your face. You're like, oh, oh my goodness. Yeah, he's right. I, um, think her questions. Yeah, exactly. But at first, at service level, you're like, nah, come on. It's a very gavin question.

I think we've talked about in the podcast before, but I sent him an article I read a couple weeks ago about how turtles, turtles, is turtles can breathe underwater through their anus? Or, who can't? What? They can take in water and then diffuse oxygen into their bloodstream.

And it goes out their anus? No, that the water goes in. They extract the water. They butt chug some water. They butt chug some air, some water. And they get the air out of their mouth. They've got butt gills. Do it just why they're able to stay underwater

for so long, like sea turtles. How have we not patented this technology? I'm just gonna say why haven't humans evolved to this at this point? Like, we haven't gotten worse. Humans are only got worse. We've got nothing better. Every other creature learning the words.

But we've got Black Forest cake M&Ms. It's true. It's sea turtles do not. Oh, into cherry, a little bit to chocolate. We've got Black Forest M&Ms in a package that might choke a sea turtle one day. And then it's open in the ocean. So can't breathe that, can't the eggs humans, yeah.

Try breathing this bag through your butt hole. Erica, I'm the broadcast crew put together a little Valentine's Day decoration. It's very nice. I like it, it's not two in your face. It's like a subtle nice. It's very cute. I bring it up because he, Eric tells me that that,

there's like a flower and a little mason jar up there that if you pour hot water on it, it melts and turns into hot chocolate and I have hot water. So I'm gonna do it right now before the hot water gets in the cold. Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's see if it actually works out.

It's gonna turn into the thickest ingredient. It's gonna lead to... It's gonna turn into a head with the... All right, the water's in. Oh, that's all it's floating on top. It's doing this thing. It's beautiful. It is lovely. It'll go. Don't worry It's like plaster. It does look like I don't I will be drinking that

Your own glass of pro like All right, let's see if that actually Got all mighty it might be one of the things you have to keep pouring the hot water over it as it slowly melts it on the top. I've seen those before for like big hot chocolate ball bombs. How much to just eat the other one? If I just, if I just, if I just, is there another one on the other side? Yeah, there's another one.

I'm gonna do that for free. Yeah, yeah, there's not a dollar about there. Oh, how much to pay me to eat this delicious chocolate for that is anybody want to watch me eat this? For $50, I will consume these M&M's. Yeah, anybody want to watch me? Yes, for $50. I will consume these M&M's. Oh, yeah, how painful. They look delicious.

Eric wrote, just give it time by the end of the show. That'll be chocolate. Thanks, Eric. It'll be a newborn baby. Producing the hell out of this podcast from far away. Thank you, Eric. There was a, you know, we're super bowl was yesterday. I don't know if anybody watched.

I watched the whole thing. I watched a little bit of it. Uh, you know, some people care about the football. Some people just want to watch halftime show. Some people just like want to watch the commercials. But there was one that stood out. I think it stood out to a lot of people that was just like a QR code on the TV bouncing around.

And it was so popular like it took down the advertisers servers. But like like what a Testament to how easy it is to trick people into like scanning something and clicking on it. Look at you. Shiny. Can you imagine if it was like a malicious thing where it's like yeah we're just gonna put a QR code that's gonna install a virus on everybody's computer. So I talk about I was listening to I was another podcast I was listening to and they were talking about like the easiest way to hack into someone's computer. So, I was listening to another podcast,

I was listening to, they were talking about like, the easiest way to hack into someone's computer is not guessing passwords, it's not like, you know, doing some, you know, some swordfish shit. The easiest way, honestly, is to leave a USB drive next to someone's computer. Because they'll just plug it in. Yeah, it's just, it's human error is the easiest way

to get fucking people. Some government agencies that handle like secure Data or that'll be like one of the test they do is cord that'll just leave us be Fought like us be dongles in the parking lot and be like if anybody picks it up and takes it and puts it in their computer Like that's it you lose any clearance. It's you like plug it in and just you're fired It gives you the back of the future to McFly! You're so cool, that's it.

That commercial though is genius, because it breaks through the noise of typical commercials and you're just like, what is this? Anyone on forever. Yeah, and so your curiosity is super peaked, and like, is that the word for it? Yeah, it's yeah. Peaky or yeah?

P-I-Q-E-D-E-A-K-E-E-E-E. Yeah. I didn't scan it, but I was just like, this is, I'm tempted to. I'm too lazy to. At the very end, they put it in the this is I'm tempted to and then at the lazy to at the very end They put it in the corner. Yep. Just to be like to ultimates satisfaction. It's the the think the DVD screen Yeah, that bounced around I saw a gift the other day of or Jeff, you know whoever if you're wrong of it of like what that DVD screen looks like like laid out and as lines like how many times it actually hits the

Corner only doesn't once out of like 200 cycles or something. It goes through, it doesn't repeat itself. So everyone I've called a liar. It does eventually dink it, but it takes some time. They intentionally make it towards a rare occurrence. It's just how it's... Or just like matchmaking. It just where it begins to where it ends and where the screen is.

Yeah. Is it different for begins to where it ends and where the screen is. Like, yeah. Is it different for three to 16 by nine? It might be. You might want to. Okay, it is. Follow, I'll follow up. I'll send you some gifts. Did any of you watch any of the Super Bowl

other than watching the half time show? Okay, yeah, I watched the entire thing. Okay. How do you think? I thought that was like some of the most solid five hours of television. The game was like super tight, super interesting. The commercials were great.

The halftime show was powerful. The halftime show was so good. You were able to follow, like you were able to watch football in a meaningful way. 100% iced to play football. Got it. So I understand the rules pretty well. Canadian though.

Well, the only difference is like, it might not be the only difference but the major difference. They're all on skates. It's all on ice. The major difference with Canadian football is that we have three downs instead of four. Okay. And I think the field might be bigger. We're just better for jokes. Just like rule of three.

Isn't it smaller like it's just. Oh maybe. Goal line to go line like the end something, like the end zone shrink down. There's some, there's like some weird for every meter and all three down. So yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, I don't hope the three down.

The whole nine meters. Yeah, all nine meters. And instead of the insurgis, I ain't got a poutine, anybody need anything. Yeah. I just, there's something that's so comforting about live sports though, that I think it comes from me living alone

when I went to college. I used to just have hockey or sports on just all the time in the background, because it's great background noise, I guess. Instant nap. Just like put on like a low football game, just like, hey, there's something over there first. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, absolutely, absolutely. Absolutely, Matt maker. I didn't watch any of it. It was, it didn't watch it. Like Barbara said, I feel like it flew by.

Like you, you, but you also understand football. Yeah, okay. Yeah, like you put it on, it's like, oh my God, this is gonna be on for four or five hours. I love it. And it roses, you understand football. Oh yeah, no, I understand football, but I'm like, but I'm also like, not a,

not from like a, I don't, like, not, yeah, right. But like, yeah, I don't understand football from, not from a like, I don't really get, I just don't. Is there anything in particular that you don't understand that I could explain to you? I- I'll woman-splay it. Oh! I like that.

Uh, tight end and special teams. The fuck are those? That's a good question. Both porn. Uh, yeah, exactly. We're actually gonna have a QR code on this show that it will say and it will tell you what tight end and special tie it in. I didn't know that offense and defense switched

until like a year and a half ago. Like in between, I was just like, wait, where are they going? And like, oh, they switched, but some small schools and Texas will play both sides. Like they won't come off the field. Right, because there's like a graduating class of like 17.

They're like small asses. Also, I feel like talking about football is the boy version of astrology. I mean, you can't choose not to believe so much. Definitely. Definitely. I'm like, to that he bangles rising. Yeah, I got it.

The dolphins are constantly retrograde ever since I committed easy. It's one to one for me in my head. Yeah, where's like some people? Super into it, some people. Not so much. Here's the thing, live your bliss. I don't want, I never want to yuck anyone's yum.

Unless your yum is yuck and my yum. Yeah, in which case. In which case, look at them. Both the trail is beautiful. Great. Just. No, absolutely. I feel like I enjoy those sport, as with all sports,

I enjoy them for just the performance of something that's like the physicality of it. But I do have some friends that are like super into baseball and a mostly baseball because it's like a statistics sport. And that like the more like more levels you go down in terms of like statistics and knowing the minutia of the sport is when I start to glaze that like my eyes just become glassy. That's why you're just a day treat.

Yeah, exactly. It becomes stocks. I'm just like, uh huh. How's the how's old? Oh no. March mellows have emerged. Oh, inside the flower turns out it was a candle the whole time. Yeah.

How is it? It's a smell? It doesn't smell like chocolate. I'll say I don't want it. You can take a little bit. It turns into big red. Or I can say red. Oh, I don't know. It smells like a candle. I don't know.

That's because that's a candle. Yeah, that's because that's a candle with marshmallows in it. Gus, there is definitely a plastic-y, kind of, like, after smell, too. Okay, these, these, these, these so-called marshmallows look like fucking baby teeth. This is horrifying. This is horrifying, you know?

Baby teeth? Like, this is not bad, but it's just a, doesn't smell at all. And something I want, yeah. It's not edible. This, this smells like, like, the Kirkland brand Quicks straws. It doesn't smell at all. It doesn't smell at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all at all.

It doesn't smell at all at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all.

It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all.

It doesn't smell at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all at all. It doesn't smell at all. It doesn't smell at all. It doesn't. Okay, oh man, I don't ask. You go for it if you want. We got a banana you can start with. What is the banana box? I don't know. Eric told me it's chocolate. Okay. You know, not bad.

Really? Very subtle. You know, you know, but I have to stir that with. Whoa. I'm sorry. Banana chocolate, chocolate banana. Now that, that's home filled. That was disgusting.

You're the smile on your face, I'm making that you're gonna say it was. Eric tells me to say, you make me bananas. Okay, and I, that's enough out of you. I'd like to look up a bite of that, first of all. Yeah, seriously, you went for the high score in that first bite, Jesus. What are Y'all's opinion of the combination

of chocolate and orange? Pro pro there's like that chocolate orange you can buy that you like to smash. Yeah, that's really good Terries that's what it's called. Yeah, Terri's chocolate orange. Yeah, I know Yeah, you great taste tastes great together mint and chocolate excellent. You'll never be on a show where I don't You said it all the day. I'm time And in this case, it's true. This is true. It is true, and it is accurate.

But like how you shoehorn that into just everyday conversation, that now I have started doing all the fucking time. Just two great tastes, two great together. It's the fact that like once you know how to say that, because it's not easy to say, like that phrase is not easy to say, but once you do it, it's stuck.

Oh, I can watch it. It's almost like a party trick. Too great taste to taste your idea every time, 100%. Yep. In this case, it's actually true. I like, was there some online discourse about people like saying chocolate and orange thumbs down? No, no good to go.

I think it's a very divisive topic. I'm not like that. There's a lot of people who don't like chocolate and orange. They must picture like an orange, like a peeled orange with like chocolate syrup over it. Which would be disgusting. Yeah, absolutely. But it's even like the Terry's chocolate orange.

Yeah, but then there's also really. Well, I was thinking mint and orange, and that doesn't go together at all. But this, the thing I just tried. Oh, mint and chocolate, delicious. Maybe the two worst flavors that, like, you know what I'm talking about, divisive. It's white chocolate and banana flavor.

Wait, it's banana flavor. Banana flavor. Yeah, like a banana runt, but also white chocolate. And isn't that, isn't it the cake? Okay, I'm told you. I will try this. Yeah, you can try this. There's two more, there's two more halves,

just so our main character's still safe. No, no, you can't, it's not good. Like someone correct me if I, oh god, even the feel of this. It's not bad. Oh my god. It feels like a toss. But I would require payment. Like someone correct me if I, oh God, even the feel of this, like, it's not bad. Oh, okay. It feels like a toss.

But I would require payment. You make it the banana whole thing. Absolutely. Yeah. One bite enough. Yeah. Correct me if I'm wrong. Maybe the chat out there correct me.

But Gus, you actually have the internet with you. Oh God, the internet. And I'm not gonna look this up. But aren't like banana flavored things. Right. That like runs stuff. Are they, are they, are they, that actual flavor is closer to what bananas actually used to taste like

pre-1950. That's the rumor. Yeah. I think it's big banana saying this is as close as we could get, go eat a real banana. Yeah, that's what I think too. Yeah. Because it's so, it's like an uncanny valley banana flavor. I don't want, like it's there, but it's so, it's like an uncanny valley banana, flavor. I know. Like it's there, but it's not. Can we, are all those bananas gone? They're gone.

Like you can't, fungus, it got fungus. What, last of us? We last of us, the banana. We've got a budget. Like if I told Eric, bias, a Cavendish banana, he couldn't do it. Is it Cavendishers that they want? What do we have now?

Gross Michelle, that's what we have. Gross Michelle. Gross Michelle. You have to say it that way, because if you say gross Michelle, it's not gross Michelle. Gross Michelle. Eric, find me a Cavendish shit. You have to say it that way because if you say gross misch- Ew. It's not gross misch- Gross misch-

Derek, find me a Cavendish banana. What do you see say? We've tried to order bananas but they were out of season. We'll order them when they're in season. What do you mean, bananas? Banana season. Never out of season. Cavendish has been out of season for 70 years.

Right. 70 years. Can't get them. With all our science, with a lot of miraculous science, we couldn't get a Cavendish banana. Okay. It's hoisted by our own petard in that regard. Well, because the science behind it is like,

Shakespeare quote more, right? I'll say that. I've never heard you say those words before, in that succession. It's one of those things to where, like the reason they wiped out the Cavendish banana is because there was no, there's been, There's a monoculture.

It's monoculture. They eliminated it was a bit of a, there was a banana monopoly thatoculture. It's monoculture. They eliminated it with biodiversity. There was a banana monopoly that then turned into a banana monoculture that then wiped out the Cavendish bananas. So like if a, if a plate came along that attacked our current gross Michelle banana, we would be out of bananas and like a unit. You did exist.

You did exist. Yeah, it's called Tropical Race 4, and it's already out there. And the worry is that it's going to continue and eliminate all bananas as we know them. I believe tropical race three is what eliminated the Cavendish and now the new one has dropped and our kids are only gonna know Plantane.

Chiquita. Chiquita's sweating. And that's why I'm not counting on kids. I can't allow anyone to live in a world without normal bananas. America, freedom. I don't know which camera is in a world without normal bananas. America, freedom. I don't know which camera is mine. You're around bananas. My favorite thing about a banana is that 70% of it is delicious and the last 30 is the

grossest thing you've ever tasted. I never finish a banana. I'm like, oh, delicious. Oh, this is fantastic. I haven't had one of these in a while. Get done with this last bit. I'll never eat one of these as long as I live, throw in the garbage. The little brown mushy bit with the little n these as long as I live throwing the garbage.

The little brown, most you bit with the little nipple on it. Yeah, put the bottom. It's just like, I want the flavor until I absolutely don't want the flavor anymore. And that's why they make mini bananas. They're this small. This big. That's what I was gonna suggest to you.

So apparently I'm wrong, according to chat. They account to disable autoplay. Thank you. Kevin Dish is the current banana. Gross Michelle was the one that was the best. Okay, great. Oh, okay. Gotcha.

So I can't be bothered to look it up. I can only tell if Chad tells me. Yeah, we just need to wait for Chad to catch up to our discussion. Right. And then figure out what's actually true or not. Speaking of things that are extinct, there was a new Jurassic Park trailer during the Super Bowl.

And they're grasped, right? Like Sam Neal and Lordern Lordern are like back reprising their characters Which like they both like they don't need to come back We don't we don't need Sam Neal and Laura Dern to come back and reprise. They're not like Hurtin So we can have people coming back to do their characters. You see that awesome powers commercial yikes Yeah, the entire cat. I don't need it in one commercial. He used to think like that. Except for Austin Powers, I guess they couldn't get Mike Myers. Gus, what?

I see what you did there. They're the same person. What? What? What? I think he knew that. I'm really looking forward to the Oscar winner from 2030, recognizing things, the motion picture.

That's like really all. We think we're headed toward it. We did it with stars. We're doing the Jurassic Park. What else did they do with it? They did something with something else recently where it's just like, you just get the old people to come back and then everybody loves it

because the boomers are like, oh, I remember Han Solo. I remember like they did it with Indiana Jones. They keep, it's all of the Spielberg's really digging it, I feel. I feel like Spielberg has something to do with bringing back the old folks. But I mean, there's a way to do it that's just cash-grabby, but then there's a way to do it, I think that's also well executed. I have not seen a well executed version of bringing back the old folks.

I might agree with you on that. I'm trying to rack my brain for any answer. Did either of you like Ghostbusters Afterlife? Didn't see it. Haven't seen it yet. Maybe. But I feel like I was. Also, Russ and P.S. I have an Raymond.

I know. I know. Terrible. Jeez, man. I feel like Ghostbusters Afterlife came closest to nailing that. Got it. For it's like a story, like a quote unquote, new story that abuts an old story and kind of like venn diagram overlaps it a little bit.

It's like, it was endearing in a way to like try to bring the franchise to like a younger new generation while still keeping the crotchety old people happy. Like, okay, that was Ghostbusters, but it's obviously not ours anymore. I guess the reason that they're trying to make the crotchety old people happy is because they're the ones with all the money.

That's correct. Ah, got it. Okay, never mind, I'm caught up. I get it. Yeah. It's very interesting. And it's something that I don't know, I think kind of plagues all media,

which is like, the people who write the checks are very interested in replicating the last success. And it is how we get funneled down to, like kind of worse versions of everything that just kind of like, and now we have a Jurassic Park movie that like, I don't know, I feel like it's tough to like both pass the torch and a piece.

Cause like passing the torch, cool. Like some people get to like run with this new property. And like, I feel like, well, I'm gonna open all can of worms. I feel like Star Wars is the best example of this. It's like, why are we following the same six people we've known? In like one of the coolest sci-fi universes. In time of Galaxy. Very far away apparently.

Very far away in a long time ago. We follow the same seven fucking people. And everything happens on Tatooine. It's the central planet, everything happens. It's very funny how, like, they just went with Jedi robes. Somebody was talking about that online, how like, we just associate Jedi with those robes, even though that would have just been Obi-Wan Kenobi's,

like, Bedouin outfit for living on a desert planet. Right, sure. But now all Jedi's wear robes, because, like, that's what you wear, even though that was just specific to him because he lived in this. He was in hiding. Yeah.

And he wasn't hiding too. Yeah. It wouldn't have been a common robe. Yeah. We're getting an Obi-Wan show, right? Yes. For the six days that we didn't cover in episodes four, five, six, and one, two, three. Like for that week long, it's the Obi-Wan Odeo-Knowy show.

I hope it's just like his capers as a force ghost. Yes, it's just super around the galaxy. Just fucking with people is like people need things from the forest. Yeah. You guys all watched the book of both of it. Yes. Finish that up. Didn't watch the, was there was a post credit thing, right?

I don't know. I got it. Trevor's been watching it, but I have, for some reason I just didn't feel like it, but now I do, so I'll go back and watch it by myself now that he's finished watching it. It's probably better now that all the episodes are out. I heard that the first few were rough. Like I wasn't hearing a lot of positive things about it.

And so I was like, oh, I guess I'm not missing out by not watching this, but then now everyone's breaking about the Blasco Blops. Yeah, then like some characters show up that you care more about. You're like, oh, this is way better now. I did see one scene when Trevor was watching in the living room one time that I like just sat in

and started watching. It was one of the earlier episodes where there was like a race through the little city area. And like each, each biker had like a different color by. And I was like, what is this looks like power? And one of the more, one is maybe, And one of the mopeds has like 12 mirrors. It just feels very not star wars. It's, you're right.

It's very, it's like a very specific kind of sci-fi that's not star wars sci-fi. And the argument made for those bikes is that episode two has that whole diner scene. Like there's a 50s diner. No, that's what people loved. They were asking for more of that. Plammering some more,

but that was the idea. And they were just basically, oh, we can make this a choice inside of the realm of Star Wars set deck. So, so I watched all the book above a fact. And yeah, the first three episodes are real rough, and then it becomes a totally different show at one point, in which case you're like, cool.

There it is. And then the finale, which is without question, one of the worst directed action things I have ever fucking seen. Yeah, when a guy does the spin to shoot, it's like, whoa. That is, that is, that is, I thought I'd give her that. That is so.

I was just like, what is this? What is this? That isn't even the worst part. Like, that is, that is, that is, I thought I'd give her that. That is so. I was just like, what's this? What? That isn't even the worst part. Like that is very dumb, because that's just bad blocking and bad, like, you know, coverage. It is like, without giving too much away, you have a bunch of people firing weapons at these two mech droids with shields for 25 minutes nonstop, making no dent in the, it's like new strategy, it's like these people, like it was just so frustrating to watch.

It's like do anything else. Like it's just so bad and it goes on. Let's fall back and get ourselves cornered and keep doing the same thing. Exactly, it's just dumb luck. It's just, oh God. It's bound to start working. If we just fire one more laser,

this will be the one that cuts through this like Metroid Shields. Like, here's the thing about, here's the thing that I got real confused on, especially in that episode. How, like if I were to shoot you with a blaster right now, would it kill you? Is it a bullet?

Cause like, I don't want to spoil anything for everybody, but like somebody takes a handful of blaster. They got armor. The character in question who got shot a lot, has a lot of fur. So just took like five or six shots straight to the core. I have also wondered that what is the actual material of the black, what is the strength?

What is the strength? Yeah, it's a laser of some kind, but then what's the, no, it's a blaster, because if it was a laser, it would travel like at the speed of light. What is the blaster immune? But yeah, so it's a laser of some kind, but then what's the? No, it's a blaster, because if it was a laser, it would travel like at the speed of light. What is a blaster immune? But yeah, so it's a blast.

It's like ionized gas or something? Ionized gas. So it's like a pressure. I'm a rudder. Listen. I'm not gonna get into the science, I'm not gonna do the ballistic science of this space wizard movie.

But yeah, that's the thing. I was like, also too, with that last sequence of that episode. I was like, fuck, I was, I have no one clearance. They just like keep like, it's just a non-stop laser fire. If I'm never reloading, never doing it, I'm like, he's not that much damage. So it's like, yeah, it's not gonna,

and also that one group escapes their dangerous situation only to fall back to the other group in an even worse situation. Like, whoo, thank God, we escaped that. Let's bunker down here. It's real bad. That's all die together. It's very bad.

Like, in terms of the direction both with the action sequences themselves, but then also just with the story of it is, so you had, they had all the ingredients for something like they could have been really cool and they just baked just an absolute shit cake. Here's my argument. If the bookable buffet was animated,

you would buy a lot more of those scenarios. And I think also, if the book above same, everything's the same except it's animated, except coverage is a little different. You would be a lot, it would be easier to pal it. I don't know. I think the problem was something that, and you touched on where the story starts,

and immediately it forks into two different stories. Two different shows. One of which doesn't end up really mattering at all. So it's like you end up feeling, as you watch the show more, you end up feeling like you wasted a lot of time in the show with stuff that's only marginally or ancillary important

to the actual story like it's going on. To just have like a scene at the end, it's like, oh, you didn't know this is who really did the thing. Ha, ha, ha. Like, oh, okay. Yeah, somebody tweeted the other day. My favorite scene in a Marvel movie, I don't know who tweeted this, so I can't credit them,

but like my favorite scene in a Marvel movies at the end credit scene, when somebody comes out from a pile of rubble and goes, it's me, Blorco, and then a whole lot of you, through acts, and the idea of it's me, Blorco, is now my favorite trope of all new sci-fi, Star Wars, Marvel, anytime there's that big reveal in Boba Fett, and I don't know who that character is,

and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat,

and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat,

and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden, like, he tells up the hat, and all of a sudden was like, I don't know who that is, I had to Google it. It was like, oh, it's the guy we just saw. It's Borca. It's Borca. Obviously. That is, I read a really, really well written film crit, crit Hulk, right up on the new Book of Boba Effect.

It was really, really well done. And I kind of had on a couple of things that like, I, you know, the things your brain notices, but you're like, can't really put into words. And it's just like this, you know, the things your brain notices, but you're like, can't really put into words. And it's just like, this, it's, the book about effect is at its very core, just like very bad storytelling. It just like, the existence of the book about effect,

justification is more star wars. Like, and that's like what you, the overwhelming feeling you get watching the entire thing is just like, we gotta keep this machine running. Yeah. And it's not in service of any, because one thing that it really touches on, you never get, and people pointed this out,

in the very last episode, a, I'm not, Cad Bane is in it, sorry, Cad Bane is in the very last episode. Sorry Barbara, I got spoiled for you. Sorry Barbara. Blorco's in, Blorco's in, Blorco's in. Blorco's in. Yes, Boba Fett.

No, Boba Fett. Yes, Ben. Anyway, he asks, he asks Boba Fett. He knows. He knows. It's a block of care. Oh, it's a block of care. He asks Boba Fett.

One thing I can't understand, what's your angle? What does Boba Fett want? He asks him point blank. The character, what do you want? Because that's the one thing that's missing from this entire series. He's like, I guess he wants to take over Jabba's like criminal empire, but why?

You never understand that through the whole series. And then Boba Fett answers him, he goes, these are my people, this is my planet. I'm not just gonna walk away. Still waiting. Is it? Look at these aren't your people? Since when? Since when? That's not your planet. We'm not just gonna walk away. Still waiting. Is it? Look at these aren't your people. It's all wins.

Since when? That's not your planet. We saw you as a little boy on a different planet. It's like, these aren't your people. The Tuskens were the closest thing, and they're fucking dead. They got massacred, and the people of this town hate your guts. They want you dead.

They're trying to gun for you every minute. So that's one of those lines that you're like, that sounds good, but is meaningless. And it's just a fucking bad story. It was in chat, if you could come to see a lot of play in J.J.O. or calling him Cad Blurco now. Great. Cad Blurco.

This reminds me of, this is just a tidbit I learned recently. You know the term blood versus water? Yeah. What do you think that means? Just like based off what you've heard of that term and how you're... When you're like blood is thicker than water? Blood is thicker than water, yeah. Yeah, it's like your family ties are closer.

You know, like people you share blood with, it's a close time. Then people you share well with? Yes, like a town. Like a town. I found out from a friend of mine that that's not the real quote. The quote is, the blood of war is thicker than the

the water of birth, meaning the people who you go through shit with like war, for example, you get a tighter bond with those people versus the people in your family. So it's the complete opposite of what blood is thicker than water, Reens. Jack of all trades master of none is a partial quote. Yeah. Same deal. Better than being a master of one is the rest of the quote. So it means the opposite. The reason that reminded me of just because I was thinking like, Oh, if he's talking about this is my home, this is my plan. It's like, Oh, maybe that was your like place you bonded with people or like where you made your friends. And you feel like this is my home now versus where you were born. I don't know. Apparently it's a 12th century German saying,

the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb. But guys, it's just translates. Same thing. Clotramabonding, man. Shit's real. People don't do shit. Also, in German, that's just one word. Yeah. That is just a single.

the trailer seemed really cool. It was a Korean series called The Silence Sea. And then I started watching it and I was like, I don't think they knew they were going to start filming the next day. It seems like they did a first pass on the script and no one was like, hey, let's do a rewrite or let's punch this up. Cause it's just like, oh, there's just stuff that's missing in this show.

It's like, it's like really tense. It's like, those stories like, the earth is dying, right? Like, all the water on the earth is disappeared. There's water rationing and these eight people have to go to this moon base because like, the researchers there all passed away mysteriously five years ago and they need to go up and recover some mysterious research from this station sounds like all creepy and sci-fi horror-ish. Yeah, but it's like so Slow like you watch them like crash land on the moon and it's like we're gonna run out of oxygen

We need to hurry to the space station and it was like the longest seven minutes of my life. I was like Why is this dragging this should be super tense? It's like eight episodes long, but we're in that phase now. It's like well I've got nothing else to watch me. Yeah, how many deeper you at this point? Yeah, like gonna watch three episodes of the silence See you tonight finish it off Some cost fallacy. Well, I'm already in this Gotta keep going I see to see what happens just so I know whether, but see, I also hate watch stuff a lot.

That was like me at 50 Shades of Grey. Did you read it or watching it? Both. But wait. Well, because I was like, well, I got to see what the first book was about. And I was like, well, now I need to know what happens. Because I'm already in story.

And then I was like, how did they interpret the books? And the movies, I have to watch. And then I need to get any help from the film. I get to get the same tattoos that I'm getting. Yeah, yeah, my own fan picture. I was on a show where we like, ship, thank you. We shipped things across the country. And it's easy to guess if you look at my M2B.

But one of the shippers. So biggest humble brag ever. Put, look at what, if you look at my M2B. My job. It's what I do look at my HDB. My job. It's what I do for a living. It's my job. Hey, it's not very good in my star meter. I'm gonna edit it.

I've got I am. Anyway, was stuck in a truck with one of the shippers and they bought the audio book of 50 Shades of Grey. Excellent. And would play it any time that the cameras weren't rolling. Okay. And so was just subjected. And like so through all of the most beautiful parts of Utah,

like the big plateaus and the very like, a stoop rock formations, just all of 50 shades of gray. So I'm just traumatized. Any time I think about Utah, I'm like, I'm like, as he crossed his member, like it's a good advice. A lot of 50 shades of gray is emails back and forth between the two of them for like a couple chapters.

And so it's like subject about last night. Read about last night. Signed Christian. Like it's just like, and so, but it's between the bad writing and then there's the graphic sex and then just looking at the window and being like, that's the most gorgeous desert

I've ever seen in my life. Yeah. He ripped off in my life. Yeah. He ripped off her panties. Yeah. Just as you're seeing pastoral beauty, I have seen 50 shades of gray probably a hundred times. Oh, right. I guess I have for through Master Pancake,

I kind of watch it a bunch of my fun. During this time, this is your time of year, isn't it? Ooh, boy. It's so funny. You start to like, when you see a movie, when you watch a movie that much, you just start to latch. There is a little bit of stock home syndrome that like takes, that like takes hold because you do start to... I think it's a plot point in 50 shades.

Exactly. I think that's actually by be the, the whole plot point. And it's very, it's really fascinating how you'll, you will find things to both like about it and latch onto and then start noticing things that you never noticed before. And because, you know, having seen the, you know, the movie went just out of curiosity went to like, read some of the book and find some like, the choices to like cut some, it is some of the most dog shit writing I have ever ever like, I mean,

my god, I mean, it's it's it was originally a Twilight fanfare. Yeah. Yeah. I it was like to the point where I was reading, I was like, this is the most successful Andy Kaufman-esque prank that has ever been played on humanity. Like I'm reading them like, you're joking, right? This is the book. Oh, this is the book that made like, you know, 100 million, 100 million there now. Yeah, exactly.

Someone's living on an island right now because of this. I'm just saying, market stuff to middle-aged women and you got a gold mine. Also, very fun fact. While that movie was in the theaters, and we were, for this, back in the before times, when we were performing in theaters and showing the movie, when 50 Shades of Grey was in the movie,

was in the theaters, my friends who worked in the movie, theaters worked at the Alamedra Altaus, said that without question, by far, the absolute worst audiences, I mean, just an audience full of care and it's a second. As far as they can see. 100%.

I mean, and about second, like they couldn't even name a second. Like we're like, what's like the second worst movie, like in terms of audiences, like there is none. This is the one. It's the top five. It is the top five. Like people like bringing their own booze in, breaking shit, like getting sloppy at, like,

I mean, really? Sloppy at, you're just gonna say like, people who are just rude or whatever. All of the above, it's all of the above. People bringing in like, breaking shit, getting in fights, getting sloppy drunk at like, 2.30 on a whole day for those shops. Just like, awful audiences back up.

We released the director's cut of 50 Shades Grey. I wanna see this one. I want the Snyder cut. Yeah, exactly. And just go see like weird like. Just like Snyder cut. I just want Snyder to do anything with any movies. The Snyder cut of 50 Shades of Grey.

Oh, what a great good. There's a circumcision joke and here's somewhere that I'm not. Absolutely, not finding. Speaking of the draft house, did you all see that the original draft house location got demolished? No last week. Yeah, yeah, they they tore down that whole block Colorado. Yeah, like fourth fourth in Colorado. What's downtown? Yeah, yeah, not the right. There's one Before the location. It was like it was like a bottle service. Yeah, they I guess they're building a tower there They tore down the whole block. I got I got to meet Tim League one time and he's one of those people like if you know he runs all of the Almond

Drafthouse and a hero of mine since a very early age. I got to meet him once through Owen Edgerton. Mm-hmm. Bloodfest, as we know. Yeah, I got who wrote and directed Bloodfest. Yeah, and so I was working on Owen's first movie and Tim was on set and I was like, I don't, I'm gonna geek out. I'm gonna geek out, I'm gonna meet Tim. And when I was 19, I had gotten tickets to the last night of the Alamo. It was the last night that they were showing movies at that location. And they gave you like a wrench

to like pull up your seats. So I have two Alamo seats, which, that's a humble brag. I'll take that as a humble brag. But I walk up to Tim and I'm like, hey man, great to meet ya. I got real drunk when I was underage one time at your restaurant and had a great time. And he was like, I like how that's what you're saying.

I just panicked. I panicked over like a geek out over like bizarre celebrities. And this is one of those times, there's like Tim Leak just geeked all the way out. And I was like, I got really drunk at your restaurant. And the only thing Tim Leak has ever said to me is, why would you say that? Yeah.

Yeah. And I just like, I gotta get back to work. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Well, because now he's like, I'm get back to work. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. Well, because now he's like, am I liable for this? Right, right. He's telling that story now.

Right, he's telling it to somebody else being like, don't, this is how not to do this. It is, it is so funny how like, I really feel like most of life is just blowing it. Most of life, most of life, because it's blowing it. It's just having like, you're with it. Here's my moment.

Here's my like, chance to meet my heroes, say hi, say my peace, say thank you, and instead, you fucking blow it. You're just like, and I just, I think just like, there's so funny. And that's like, not just like meeting heroes.

I think there's some most things. Which is like blowing it. Yeah, in general. What would you say is like the weirdest geek out. What's your weirdest geek out? Like a celebrity, you're like, oops. Like that person's not necessarily famous famous, but they're famous enough,

and now I feel I weirdly handled this. I got real awkward around. So like I'm very lucky to get to go to conventions and meet other guests that are there. Sure. Which some of which I'm like, you are way too famous to be talking to me right now in the same room as me.

I don't know what's going on here. Some really lovely people, some people who are not as lovely. I don't know what's going on here. Some really lovely people, some people who are not as lovely. Sure. I won't name any names, but there is a cosplayer named Allison Tabitha, who you've probably seen on the front page of Reddit many times. Okay. She is the most phenomenal cosplayer. She literally transforms herself into these characters by ways of costuming and makeup and just everything that she does. And so I've been following her for like years.

And she was at a convention just at a booth that I was at. And she had a line the whole time. And I remember saying to my convention agent, like, I would love to meet her at some point. And during lunch, she grabbed me. He's like, oh, she, she's actually available if you want to go say hi. And I was like, oh, yeah. And I was that awkward fan around her where she was like at her booth. And she's like, hi. And I'm like, hi, I,, and I'm like, I love your stuff, you're so good.

Can I like get a photo with you? And she's like, of course. And in the picture, she's like, she has her arms around me and I'm just standing there like, yeah, I can't. Super stiff. Just like, oh, God. And I was like, oh my God, this is the most nervous

I've ever been meeting someone by far. Yeah. But yeah. And it's so funny, because you have experience of being on the other end of that. And it just like doesn't change anything. How all of that just disappears. It just out of your brain. What can you meet somebody? Yeah.

Which is why whenever we do RTX or conventions like that and you know you guys watching right now, you say like, you're nervous to meet us. It's like we get nervous meeting other people too. Sure. Yeah. We are not any different. We're you're nervous to meet us. It's like, we get nervous meeting other people too. Sure, yeah. We are not any different. We're just humans, all of us. So yeah, just know that we're a bunch of nerds as well.

I remember once I was at Sandy, O' Comacon. And I was with Jeff, and we were outside the convention center walking across the street, you know, that street right outside, across the convention center, where the train goes and everything. We're in a crossing, we can get lunch or something. And we're walking across there, it's a comic contest. Tons of people walking, the light changes,

everyone's walking. We get halfway through the street and Jeff just stops in his tracks and goes, that's Andre 3000. And I'm like, what? And he had Andre 3000, he's like, walkie-riders, right at us, like walkie-past is going to the convention center and Jeff just like,

can't move, he's like, oh myride us, right at us, like walkie-pass does going to the convention center. And Jeff just like can't move. He's like, oh my god, it's Andre 3000. He's walking right at us. Jeff didn't say anything. He just locked up Andre 3000, walkie-ride past us. And then when you couldn't see us anymore, Jeff was like, oh my god, can you believe it? I was like, you don't wanna say hello?

He's like, no, no, no. And we just kept walking. We should. But it was fun to see like, do you think of Jeff as being so a wolf? Unflapped, just frozen. Just frozen. He couldn't even like walk.

Yeah, he was just like stuck. I like had all the different celebrities that it could have been. It's on Ray's 3,000, then he geeks out of it. So fun. Oh my God. What about you guys? Ever been star struck?

I had a conversation with someone recently about this very thing because they were talking about how they were around a certain person that they were intimidated by. And I was thinking about this as like, it's been a long time, and maybe this is something that comes with age. But it has been a very long time since I've been intimidated around somebody or just like the very like presence of someone is intimidating

Like it's a very foreign concept at this point because I think the older you get perhaps like the more you realize just like Yeah, we're all like Getting sick and shitting and being and like doing embarrassing things on our Just a human Just we're just fucking people. We're all fallible. We all do the dumbest shit on earth. And so like that's sort to get, that's gets easier as you get older.

So I was trying to like the thing of like the moments that I have been like star struck. And mostly it's just like, I don't know what to say. Cause it's like, it's like, here's the thing that it's not so much star track because it's like, I don't know what to say to you that you haven't heard a million times before, so what does it matter?

But also at the same time, as like someone who is like, you know, people have been like, hey man, like I saw that show that was really, really funny, and they were so great, I just like, I don't know. I'm just being thanked, isn't it? It feels good, it feels good. It feels good to be like, I'm a fan of your work.

Fan of your work. Yeah, that's it. And that's great. It's great. I don't think that be like, I'm a fan of your work. Fan of your work. Yeah, that's it. And that's great. It's great. I don't think that, yeah, I think that no matter what level of success you're at, that never gets hold. Never. You never gets hold here and somebody be like,

hey, you're a meaningful person that exists in the universe. Thank you. And that's real, I think that is the goal of that. It's like, it's because you, within your mind, think, oh, what can I say to this person that won't be tried, or they haven't heard a million times before. It's one ear out the other kind of thing, it's like, it's because you, in your mind, think, oh, what can I say to this person that won't be tried or they haven't heard a million times before? It's one ear out the other kind of thing.

It's like, yeah. Yeah, exactly. When it's just like, you know, if you truly mean this and want to thank someone for their impact on your life, you also don't need to leave an impact on theirs. Does that make sense? So you just like, just can just thank somebody.

Thanks a lot. Hey, love your movies. Fantastic. Right. Made me so happy. I finally learned that when we were still, we were still at the Congress office, you know, downtown, and our office used to be right next to the hideout. And one morning I got there to work and I went into the hideout, got coffee, came out of the hideout,

and Walt and Goggins were standing there. Who's hell, yes. It's an effort. He was in. You watching Jim Stunns? No. Okay. And he was like standing with a cup of coffee. I assume they were filming predators at the time. So I assume he was waiting for his ride

to take him to set or something. And I was like, oh my God, it's Walton Goggins. I walked right by him, walked up to our office, and Bernie was sitting there, was like, Walton Goggins is standing outside. Right now, he's right on the street. Bernie was like, did you say anything? I was like, no, I don't want to bother him.

Like, he's, he's Walton Goggins, right? Yeah, that's him. It's like, I fucking love him. I loved him in the shield at the time, and you know, he was a huge fan of his work, and Bernie was like, why don't you say something to him? He's like, I don't wanna bother. He's like, no one's bothered.

If you just say like, hey, I really enjoy your work. Thank you, I think you do a good job. And I was like, oh, yeah. When has anybody gotten annoyed at being thanked? Like, right. Yeah, thank you so much. Fuck you. And this is the guy. Yeah. Thank you so much. Fuck you. And this is the guy.

Yeah. And if you encounter a person truly that like is upset or like bothered by your thanks, that is like a cold reflection on a very sad song. Unless you're like breaking somebody's eye line during a take, during a before like on time. Right. Like I'm trying to catch a cab, or I'm sorry, I'm going into the bathroom,

could you maybe not, like, in the bathroom I would say it would be like, there's like a cold. Oh, locations, oh you can see that I'm running to make a flight, maybe don't stop me in, like do those. I don't know if you could send it to them. Okay, I got the picture of me with this. Oh, you did, awesome.

But like, they're, yeah, exactly, they're like, you know, unless it's clearly like, I'm on my way to be somewhere or like it's like Yeah, there's way so you're not bothering them for say people be very What's the word not like passive about it? But just like really trying to brush you off. It's happened to me twice once with Chris for Lloyd And the other one was Yeah, let's look at that.

Yeah, this is the photo of me and Alison Tabitha, the wonderful, beautiful cosplay. I look like you said your arms are really just like, so awkward. Straight down. Thank you for what you do. I don't know if it's on the feet or anything. You're my favorite.

Yeah, you're down. I just didn't know what to say. Other than just like, you're amazing. Oh my God, I've been following you for years. She appreciate that. Well now like she follows me on on Instagram and stuff like that and she sent me some very nice messages and stuff like that. You're right. Once I like the name didn't click but once I looked up like oh I've seen her a million times on Reddit. You probably seen like her Jack Sparrow cosplay. That one I think is pretty big. She's done some really amazing wonder woman cosplays too,

because she makes herself look just like Gal Gadot, which is incredible, but yeah, she's phenomenally talented. It is really insane with the people who are really expert cosplayers, which is when they use makeup to tramp, not just like, oh, I am in the same costume as someone, but no like-

The same face. I would take a face. With makeup can become, look almost exactly like this other person. That's truly insane stuff, but then also makes you appreciate, it's like, oh, even the people that I think I know what they look like don't really look like that.

It's like even the people that I think- There's so much, it's's painting a face for sure. Yeah, you are painting a face. It is a canvas speaking of meeting people. RTX coming back in person. Come back this summer. Come be awkward. Come join us.

So lock it in, get it while you can. We'll all be there. It's going to be so great. I saw all the photos from the Face Jam event in Chicago on Friday, it's like, man, I missed that. Yeah, I missed having an actual live event in front of people and feeling that energy. I don't know, you do stuff and you see views online or you get comments like,

it's different when it's an actual meet person. I feel like it's gonna breathe new life into us. Because I think not having those events and being able to like see our community in person, I think has also been like a huge downer these last two years. Yeah. And it's just like, I don't know, it's nice to see the people that you make stuff for.

Yeah. And actually get to talk to them and meet them. I'm gonna have a cardboard cut out of myself there that you can go and I'm gonna be standing like this. Oh, you can come up and like, yeah, exactly. Do as you please like this. Oh, come up and like yeah, exactly. Do as you please. Exactly. Yeah, you could look like the confident one with Andrew being awkward.

Yeah, exactly. I'm gonna be like you. Presently. No, it'll be exciting. I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm with what Windows. What day does it fall this year? The first to the third of July. July.

July. I remember that. And then you can cut loose in all some Texas having that fourth of July. Yeah. Have a nice sweet tea and pops and fireworks. More importantly. My birthday on that Saturday. What's your birthday? It's a second. So it's right in the middle of RTX. We're throwing you a big party. I mean if any is anything if you don't want to come for RTX. Come to worry birthday, birthday. Yeah. Full on rave. It was always funny when Bethany was here, who used to be the head of our events team. Her birthday was the first. And so whenever RTX was around that time, it

was just like, it was our birthday weekend. With the most work ever. They're going to do a bunch of work. Yeah, exactly. But I liked it. Cause when you got to celebrate your birthday with like a bunch of awesome people, exactly. But I liked it because when you got to celebrate your birthday with like a bunch of awesome people. Yeah Speaking of small town, Texas You know, I've been pursuing getting my pilot license for a few months now and I'm finally at the point where I started doing what they call cross-country flights. Okay. It's like where you you fly to an airport more than 50 miles away and you land there so you fly to an airport more than 50 miles away and you land there. So, are you allowed to take people here? No, no, no passengers.

So I went to Curville a few days ago. Dude, Curville slaps. Curl, the airport was cool. Dude, I can tell you. We did like a little like weekend trip out to Curville. It's a hidden gym in the hill, good. I'd never been, cause it's kind of a pain in the ass to get to from Austin. Yeah, so Texas. Gotta go through a French bird and gym in the hill. I'd never been, because it's kind of a pain in the ass to get to from Austin.

Yeah, so Texas. Gotta go through. It's a pain drive. I'm a real bad guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, but it's like you get in the plane. It's like, oh, you're there in 40 minutes. Right.

So you just like go straight. Yeah. Landed in a curvil. And I was like, I'm going to get out of the plane. Like I normally never get out. I was like, I'm going to park the plane. Then I'm going to get out in peak. Wow.

Perfect. So like I park the plane, go out and walk in over to like the building, or like they park to plane go out and I'm walking over to like the the building where like they call it the FBL I'm walking over to the building to like where the bathrooms are and like I stop and I look and there's like another plane parked there that all three tires are flat which seems like the ultimate insult to a to a vehicle that flies. Yeah. It's like no you can't do that because you're ground. Yeah, the things you touch the ground with are all flat. It's so sad to see, it's like, oh, this is something that could fly, but it can't because it's got a flat tire. It's a bird with a broken foot.

Come on! I thought you were gonna say outside that plane? Walton, Goggins. I took a picture with him. I flew this weekend. I was out of town and I flew back home. I thought that plane, Walt and Goggins. Did they do that side of plane? It took a picture with him. Yeah, yeah. I flew this weekend. I was out of town and I flew back home. And I was getting some snacks for myself before the flight.

And I found that they had pickles as a snack, like a little snack pack of pickles. That's like chopped up and it's like, oh, they're like spicy. I've seen those, they're good. I love pickles, yeah. Like sliced. I have. All right, not like on a relish. No, they're good. I love pickles. Yeah, like sliced. I have. Oh right, not like a relish.

No, it's just a jar of relish. It's just a jar of relish about it. Getting with a spoon, like a side dish. It's like there's $11. And I'm sitting there in those like seats that they have a lot of terminals that are like the hard plastic that slope down. And I'm eating the pickles and it's small bag.

And I was like, oh, let me just get more. And I tip it to get more. Oh, no. And all the pickle juice comes seeping out onto my jacket, pools into the chair. Oh, no. And I'm wearing jeans. Also, I have a checked bag.

So I don't have any clothes. No, no. And I was just like, you're getting on the plane next to another human. And that person's going to know that your pickle lady for the rest of that person's life. Yep. And the people across me watched all happen. And I'm trying to wipe it up.

I don't have any napkins or paper towels. I have a receipt from when I bought the pickles that I'm desperately trying to soak up. It was like a little piece of thermal paper. It was like a little piece of paper that I'm trying to soak it up with. And I just like move over and I, yeah, it's just it was disaster. It's a people across me who volunteer a it at up with and I just like move over and yeah, it's just, it was just a disaster.

Does the people across from you volunteer A at all or are they just like, did they laugh? None whatsoever. They just like sat there and just, well, everyone has masks on so all I see is just like, just the eyes looking at me and they're like doing their thing. Oh my God. God.

Cause that's like, that is a high octane smell. Like that is, I mean, vinegar, it's pure vinegar and like pickle brine. I mean, like in terms of liquids you could spill on yourself, it's like, well pickle juice, tuna, turpentine. It's like, yeah, the bottom of the tuna water. Yeah, exactly.

Almost as bad as when a woman kicked a full bloody Mary onto me on one plane. I had her on my table and she was moving past me and she kicked it and it all spilled into my lap. And this was a flight from London to Austin. Oh. And this happened an hour into the group. Oh, five hours with a wet Bloody Mary lap.

Wet lap. And she just went, oh, let me get someone. And I was like, how about like, sorry. Maybe step one. Oh my god, I'm so sorry. like, sorry, maybe step one. Oh my God, I'm so sorry. I, that, like, I don't know what it is in some people's brains where it's just like, my instinct is to apologize.

If I'm like, I'm just existing, existing means of apologize. Exactly, my presence seems like I'm like, I'm in imposition. I was like, every day, in the first words out of my mouth, I'm usually like, sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Someone's in to me, I say sorry.

With some people, it's like the action is not, it's not they're doing. It's something that happened while they were there. Like, oh, that glass fell over. Not I knocked that out. And if they say sorry, I'm sorry. I love being a person who doesn't understand object permanence or causality.

But there's some languages that like feature that as like how you present when things break. Like I think it's Spanish. Yeah, it broke. It broke, it broke. It's very much like, I think you don't hit the base. It's like the base broke on it. Yeah, it broke. That's true.

Interesting. Vlasic Barb, not my joke. That's right, it was my joke. Oh, yeah. There's actually two people who made that joke, the Vlasic one. And then many people made that look like you're in a pickle now.

And I went, no, I am the pickle now. Because I was covered in pickle. You know, you brined yourself. Anyway, there's a watcher here. Yeah, that's awful. The worst I've had, I had a bunch of water spilled on me on a flight, but it's like, all right, water. That's inconvenient. That sucks, but it doesn't stink and it's not sticky. Wait, did I tell the story on the show before? I spilled corn on a cop once.

I tell you this. He spilled corn on a cop. I was thinking, you spilled corn on a cop. No, you said you spilled corn on a cop. On a police. Yeah. When I actually spilled corn, I'm guessing it was like, current, already curdled? It was curdled, so I worked at like a little redneck restaurant and like three cops came in one day.

What you're about? It was like a cracker barrel? Like a cracker barrel only like more red, like more in the backwoods. And like was serving, I was like 14. I'd gotten like written permission for my principal to have a job. And then like was serving these like three police officers

and one of them ordered curled corn. And I just like, and like she was in uniform and like they like the other two cops that was very funny and tipped very nicely for some reason because they didn't like her because probably like and then I got no she didn't tip obviously I wouldn't have either but burned it keeps you up and I burn into my retinas I'd still think about it the moment slowly playing in the brain over and over again

individual current calls glist playing in the brain. Over and over again. Individual corners. Glistening. Yeah, just back and forth. It just keeps replaying and rewinding and replaying and rewinding. Do you think that they still think about that moment? I remember the time that kids still corn on you. Every corn you corned you in 20 years.

I still think about it all the time. Yep. Other officers wouldn't let me live it down. I'd quit the forest. Got a net padded. Guess you could save my life. Am I left into that data corner spill-up? So you know, it's like the old saying,

butterfly effect ruined their lives. Yeah, it's like the old saying, corn is thicker than water. Right. We all really know that. Oh, Miss Arper did. Yeah. People think it means one thing.

It doesn't. No. God. I'm trying to think. Speaking of flights, liquids, and London, I think I might have told this story on the strike of the four. It's specific.

It's three, I guess, three years ago when there was RTX London, I flew over there and I was like, you know what, I'm gonna treat myself. I'm gonna upgrade to business class. Hell yeah, dude. Which is honestly, even though it was initially uncomfortable, because I wanted about to say, man, was that worth the money? Man, was it worth the money to upgrade to a nice business class

seat. But. Little trick, if you upgrade the day of, it's usually cheaper than buying it straight out. Straight out, yeah. Pro tip. Pro tip. These are flight tips that Barbara. I I so the the I was The overhead bin was leaking and it was just dropping water onto me and my seat and

They couldn't figure out where it was coming from No, no, that's certainly what you're like Water coming from nowhere on a plane. Inside. Ins not good, not great. Like a boat, maybe more concerning, but also still not ideal on a plane either. And to open up the overhead bin,

like a centimeter of water, like a quarter of an inch of water. A quarter of an inch. Inside. That's like a flood. That's like, that's not fair. That's not fair. They could never figure it out. They put a bunch of water bottle like.

No, this was like coming from like maybe like a condensation line or something. Like from the air conditioner, one of the air conditioning and something like that, they ended up putting up a bunch of like towels and blankets up there and soaking it up. So it eventually stopped. But the mystery of where that water is coming from and like,

I feel like I don't want to be on this plane flying a little bit. So speaking of passive people who take no responsibility, I had this exact same thing happen to me Andrew, where it's like I was sitting and there was just water dripping on me and the fly attendant comes by and asks, does anyone have a water bottle up in the overhead compartment? Nobody answers, like ignoring her. And I mean, while I'm getting, so it's why I talked about getting water on me, I'm getting water all over me.

I have to stand up. The fly attendant's like, does anybody have a water bottle up there? Nope. And there's like, you said a quarter inch water in the overhead bin. So a fly attendant starts pulling bags out to try to like put blankets down to stop up the water.

She pulls one bag out and there's a water bottle with the top off. And all the water has come out. And she goes, who's bag is this? And some guy goes, oh, that's mine. And she goes, did you have this water? Is this your water bottle? Did you have water? And he goes, yeah. And she goes, it spilled everywhere. He goes, oh, okay. Again, no sorry. I am covered in the fucking water from your water bottle asshole. Yeah, that's mine. Gas chamber, no trial.

Straight to the gallows. Get that person dead. I saw her stand right next to you and ask does anyone have a water bottle up there? Just out of the way. It's like, can you let me know when we more at 35,000 feet because this person is gonna take a first class to take it out of the door. I'm sending this person into the ocean. Insane, that is insane.

It's always so wild to me, because I don't know if maybe I'm more, like just too socially aware and to like, what's the word? Like not wanting to get in anyone's way ever. Always wanting to like, just not be an inconvenience to anyone ever, but there are some things people do where it's just like they don't care.

Like not their problem. Not their problem. Oh, that happened, oh, whatever. Like we were at a event this weekend, me and Trevor, and people had like their coats in certain places and like put bags down on chairs and the chair next to us there was a phone that had an alarm going off. It wasn't a sound alarm it was a vibration alarm but it was going

didn't all stop for an hour and a half and we kept looking around to be like who's code is this? Like, yeah, it wasn't so loud that everyone would hear it, but because we were right next to it, that's all we could hear for the entire time. And I just wanted to be like, who set an alarm? A hour and a half. Who set an alarm at this event and just put it in their coat and left it somewhere? And it's just like, man, I would check to make sure I didn't have anything on my phone that was going to go off or anything like that.

But people are just like, oh, whatever. No, my problem. Real villain origin story shit. Just like, well, this is when I snap. This is how I lose my mind. This is it. For me, for me, those moments are really like, I don't know why, and this is some like old man grippy shit, but seriously, I do not know why. For you? No. No. I do not know why leaf blowers have to be used by people at 7am, no matter where you live in this world. No, that's prime leaf time. Prime leaf time must be at 7am right outside my windows.

Let's see if it works. Sure, that's what we all meet. We all meet with your leaf blowers. Yeah, we're supposed to go to that. Yeah, just compare different things. But yeah, some of the things like, with like car alarm, like car alarm's going on, which is like,

eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, for like an hour one time. And they're just like, oh, came out, I'm sorry, I was like, listen to something on my headphones, neighbor came out and like turned this like, I've never heard a good car alarm in a long while. I'm overdue for like a long car alarm annoyance. That'll probably happen this week. Definitely this week. So,

I would just die inside. You heard how bad the everybody in viral videos are. Yeah, as long as they're the gas power. The electric ones still suck. Hydrocarbon emissions from a half hour of yard work with a two stroke leaf blower are about the same as a 3,900 mile drive

from Texas to Alaska in a 4F 150. Oh my god. No, you could drive a truck from here to Alaska and that would be the same as running a two stroke leaf blower for 30 minutes. That's just a two stroke engine. Period. Yeah, like two stroke engines just suck. Yeah, there's like the most common application nowadays. What are weed eaters as well?

And it's all the blow leaves away from places. It's all to move leaves from one place to another. It's all just to like control nature. Like it's just like we're shitting on nature while we're trying to control it. Like I want these leaves over there and everybody else sucks. This fact, that fact is all the more maddening when you actually like, I remember like a couple of years ago, I was living in an apartment,

and I guess this is more than a couple now, is a little bit of an apartment. And it was a windy day. And the landscape people were out there blowing leaves only for it to be blown, right? Like it was the most cisterfician task I've ever witnessed in person. And they just still felt the need,

that kind of pollution whilst not accomplishing anything. It just like, do you think these people don't realize that they're causing that pollution? Like they, because honestly up until now, I didn't realize that they were that bad. As a general belief blows, I feel like you're a little, like it is what it is. I feel like it's more on the corporation to be like,

hey, maybe we should be a little more considerate, because people are gonna leave blow. It's so, it's- Even electric ones. You could, but then let's say, yeah. I blame the corporation. So, that quite related. You said windy day, and it made me think about it.

This is it. I'm gonna bitch about something else. Pivot, it's hard pivot to bitch about something else. Someone in a one block radius of my house has a wind chime and I want to murder them. What, what are you talking about? Which I like big tubes? I don't know. Oh, I know is when it gets windy, I hear a wind chime

and I can't see it and I wanna burn something down. I feel like wind chimes aren't. It's really windy. I need some more detail on the chime. What's the point? The all wind chimes. Not all wind chimes. There's It's really windy. I need some more detail on the time. What's the point? The all wind chimes. Not all wind chimes. There's no such thing as a good wind chime.

Oh, the wind's blowing and that thing makes noise. What I like is when is a drifty wind and you just hear the, the thing, the thing, the thing. And it's like nice and relaxing and it's like not constant. Sure, yeah, windy days. But more of a, a,

we had a couple of blustery days lately which made me really hate this wind chch and I can't fucking find it Steel it Come on the show and bring the winch out when you find it I'm stealing you should just put a rubber band. I was gonna say a bunch of socks and like We're all over a winch and silence. You just put individual socks on each tube and rubber band them. Yeah, my God.

I feel like the big Winshimes are fine. The really expensive, for foot, you got a good push on them to make it noise. You never heard the bamboo ones. The ones that are more like, those are nice because it's not like that high pitch. Yeah, these are the small high pitch metal ones. Oh, the small ones are nice.

Yeah, especially if you do live in an apartment and God help you if you live in an apartment and have like windchems on your fucking balcony, it's like everyone can hear those. And if even one person doesn't like them, that's already too many. Because I'm with you Gus. Fuck windchems forever.

Yeah, I never, I don't get them. I never, like, they tick a very specific part of my brain, that again, it's like, I don't wanna bother anybody, I don't wanna, like, it is a very, it's as much, like I'm not really a big fan of the sound of them, as much as it also is, if even one person, this is even annoying one person within a block radius of me, I would be mortified. It's like, I got a note on my door that said,

hey, you're Winchimes? Hey buddy. Cut it out. I would be like, oh, I'm sorry, can I bake you a cake? I'm so sorry. Oh, dude, I literally, I put up a Winchime, maybe a few years ago, thinking like, oh, this will be nice. And then it was windy in afternoon.

And the whole time I was thinking, this is loud, this is loud, oh my God, people are gonna get really mad at me, and I went outside and I immediately took it down. Because I was thinking about what everyone else was gonna be thinking. And I wanted to be courteous to my neighbors and the people who live next to me that might be bothered by-

I'm in decency. Yeah. It's funny. We're all the same kind of person, aren't we? That being said, I do like a good win-shime on a nice calm day. Right. But if you're, I do like a good winchime on a nice calm day. But if you're having a house or a place

that's far enough away from other people. Sure, on some acreage. Yeah. Winchimes on an acre into a three acre plot. There you go. And make sure they're like the kind of like medium to big size ones to use some like medium tones. I like winchimes with some caveats.

Right exactly. I like winchimes a some cabbillets. Right exactly. I've got like winchimes asterisk. Yeah, there's like, also it takes a little more wind to move those. Yeah, it's supposed to like any tiny little breeze. Right exactly. It's like, no, no, no, please, I don't want the cat on a glock and spiel.

No, I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want the dream sequence initiation of, yeah. Just sorry, I just thought of a school of rock when he goes chimes. Anyway, a just thought of a school of rock when he goes, chimes. Anyway, a perfect movie. A perfect movie.

We had a bunch of winchimes for a video we did a few years ago. It was the quiet place challenge, I think. Oh, yeah. Or something like that where we bought a bunch of winchimes and hung them around the office and then made it pitch dark. And then we had to like, go through an obstacle course. And we still, John to like up like go through an obstacle course. And we still, John and I were like cleaning through some of our old stuff from the old bungalow

and found a box and I was like what's in here and I open it and it's just probably 30 winchimes. I've wanted the people from facilities like what do you want to do with this? I was like get rid of it. Do you have an office? I mean it immediately. No, damn it. just like get rid of it. Do you have an office? Me at it immediately. No, damn it. I guarantee this is the longest any group of people

I've been talking about, winchimes. I hear them. I'm gonna cue them. I don't like that at all. That's a nice chime. That's a solid. That's a three foot chime at least. That's a three,

that's a, it's like crowd, the winchimes out of Krause Springs. You never got to get to get to these springs. Exactly. Cause those are like five foot chimes and they're very like, oh, I feel like you feel very, oh, monastic. It feels very sad.

Feels like you're about to do some yoga. Also somehow this wind chow, I don't know how this room is rigged, but it feels like it's in my head. It feels like I'm, it's like, it's the magic of the chimes. Yeah, I guess. And I'm a little shocked that you don't like wind chow.

I feel like, well, there should be like, what? Have you met him before? There should be like an aernotic version of wind chimes where it's like, if the knot speed is at a certain point, it will chime. And then there's gotta be like a airplane nerve. Did you know wind socks are calibrated?

Get the fuck out of here. Yeah, depending on how much of it is lifted up tells you how strong the wind is. Yeah, so like I'm saying like that, but for windchimes. What a little bit of trimming for you. No, no windchimes. Wind sock, that's what I need. If it's not a propeller humming Win sock, that's what I need.

If it's not a propeller humming at 2,200 RPM, I'm sure. Oh, it's just like droning into the center of your brain. So you have a propeller on your plant. You don't have a jet. No, god no. You don't have a propeller. No, no, just a propeller. You do.

No, no jet. No, no, no. That's super dangerous. What is? You have to learn how to do that in case you need how to do it, but they're like. No, because they'll chop your fucking hand off and they're like, don't ever do this.

If you have to and it's an emergency, here's how you can do it, but do not do it. It's like, hey, my lawn mower, that blade stuck. Let me go ahead and see if I can start it with my hand. Let me look right down the barrel of my gun as I try to fix it. Yeah. What do they recommend you do?

Just start it with the key like a civilization. Like a civilization. They made let all the air out of all three tires and yeah you should. You saw it yourself. Hop in the plane. Yeah, you like you need two people you need to like stand in a way where if you stumble you don't fall into the propeller like there's a lot of thought that goes into like what hand you use and how you like position yourself, like it's a whole thing. Damn. All right, don't do it.

It's not, yeah, you don't wanna end up like Raiders, you know, like Raiders suggestion with going into propeller, man, that scared the fucking shit out of me when I was a kid. Like, cause they the tussle of blood. Cause it cuts and you're just a spray of blood and I remember, you don't, you don't see any.

Raided PG. Raided PG, God, man. What a, what a golden era. What a time. I remember, you don't see any? Rated PG. Rated PG, God man. What a goal there. What a time. What an, I mean like, that was, I before there was like a PG 13 rating. The Temple of Doom was PG. They reach into a man's chest and pull out his heart.

The Temple of Doom was PG 13. No, that's because they invented it for Temple of Doom. Right, they invented it for Temple of Doom. But I thought Temple of Doom was still PG. No, Temple of Doom, the second one was why they invented PG 13 and it's because of that scene There's a doom is PG get the yeah, they create the because of that scene they created PG-13 But it didn't exist yet hang on Yeah, this is not for my child. Yeah, they put they eat monkey brains like just disgusting

Get that the fuck out of here But yeah, you don't even see anything in Raiders lost like you just a cut and then spray a blood But even that as a kid was enough to make me like, yeah. Also in Raiders, like the guy gets sucked under the truck and run over like when they're fighting. Oh yeah. Oh yeah, and there's that nice like clearly a doll mannequin

getting mangled under a truck. Oh, the best part about Raiders is that one shot where they didn't have a. Tough. Where it's just, no, it's a hat on a coat. It's like a fucking hat on a cantaloupe. It's stuck on a broom. It's the best, it's the best like nobody expects you

to watch this movie more than once and it's literally just somebody put a hat on a coat. And it's like pulls up in a car and then the other character gets out. Yeah, like... Zibald not seen the ball not seen the... Yeah, it's a wide and I guess he wasn't available that day. It's the ball not seen that he burned his hand.

Couldn't they put it on anybody? Anybody out? No, they didn't. Hey, PA over there. Seriously. No, it didn't do. It's a pile of clothes. It kind of reminds me of what's that movie?

It was like a more recent one. It was some movie, American soldiers, something like that where someone was. American Cypher. Oh, yeah, with a baby. Holding a fake baby. Yeah. And I'm like, this is, you don't have the budget to get a real baby?

Like what? The baby, so the story with that one is the baby called in sick. And then they're back at, I know. And then they're back at baby also called in sick. And so then they were just like, you're just having to use a prop baby. And then they're like, don't, but like don't, oversell it.

But then, It's the guy Bradley Cooper. Bradley Cooper, Bradley Cooper's like a Juilliard-trained actor. And so he like made an effort to like pop it the baby. And that's why you actually see it. Like, had Bradley Cooper just left that little baby arm alone. If they could just, nobody would have been the wife.

Nobody would have been like, what is that towel hood part on it? Like, just talk over it around to my, don't move the arm around. It's a Fisher press sticker on it. Stop it. We did, we made a TikTok a couple of weeks ago. I'm gonna talk about this forever.

We made a TikTok a couple of weeks ago that was like a promotional one for the Legend of Oxtamocchina. Okay. And in it, Chris was supposed to be a little boy and we had talked about this and planned it like the week before, okay? Yeah. It comes day of the shoot.

Chris shows up an hour late. Because he's still trying to find someone who would be willing to lend us their kid. He's trying to find a baby, like at midnight, he's calling people the night before, like, hey, can we borrow your kid tomorrow? I feel like, I already said Chris is you. You're gonna be the kid.

He shows up an hour late with like a severe five o'clock shadow and a baby doll, like from a American sniper, just like a doll. And he's like,clock shadow and a baby doll. From a circus cyborg, it's like a doll. And he's like, here, I brought this doll. We can use this as the kid. We're like, Chris, the child has lines. Still you, buddy. Yeah.

He's like, well, we can use this doll in addition to me. We're like, what do you mean? He wanted us to, it's to sell as if the, because Gus was playing the dad character, like as if he had a bunch of children. So Chris was just one of the children. I'm like, if anything, this is gonna make it feel like you're older.

If we have a baby, Angie. And you couldn't explain it. Like, why did you bring this doll? He's like, so we could have it as well as the child. That doesn't make any sense. So I love Chris to death, but maybe no more, I don't know anyone who, as much like once they get an idea in their head,

they will not let it go. Will not let it go. I cannot be dissuaded from doing any, like, we don't need the doll. Don't brag in the doll. If you bring the doll, I will burn this entire place around to the next day.

So I brought the doll. Oh my God! There is also a thing where we have to keep doing it, where it's like, this is for a TikTok. It's for a 60 second filmed on a phone video. It's not like this big budget hyperventilated. It's not like a big budget hyperventilated. Exactly.

And it's like I get it. There's some people I think, we used to make more cinematic stuff here. We used to see some movies and some higher budget series, but we're doing some low-fi stuff now too. And that doesn't require. The very similar to it. It was fine.

I thought it was great. It was fun, yeah. I thought it looked funny. I mean, he was weird because he was a little closer to camera, like he was in front of us, so he obviously was a little bigger. I wish we could have repositioned it, but just like the way the blocking works,

like he had to be in front. Sure, but it's a TikTok. It's just right, exactly. You're gonna be fine. We're supposed to tell a dumb joke. It's just to make a joke. In 30 seconds, right. Really, we were just really quickly jumping back

because we were talking about Jurassic Park at the beginning of this episode and we're coming up to continuity errors. That's how, by the way, that's how good the first Jurassic Park is. That movie is a lot of errors. That movie is wall to wall continuity errors. It is one of the most errorful movies I've ever seen.

And you don't notice because it's fucking amazing. It is movie magic that makes you, it turns you into a kid again every time you watch it. And it is just wall to wall and inconsistency. It's just like, well, I mean, man, because that's another one we did for Pancake and it's like, you really start to just like, oh yeah, he's now holding a,

he was like holding a little white towel in this shot and then a very next angle. It's a giant pink fluffy dish towel and it's like the door's opening like from the wrong hinges and like from shot to shot. Oh, it's a giant pink fluffy dish towel and it's like the door doors opening like from the wrong hinges and like from shot to shot. Oh it's great. So this is this is a good time back a little bit further in conversations that we've had. We talked about like being star struck by people. I've been star struck by a location before. Like one of my trips to Hawaii I went to like the Kuala Wa Valley Ranch where they film a lot of Jurassic Park and you go out there and they're like look

you know this is where they set up the camera this is the shot and you stand there and you're like oh holy shit this is exactly how it looked in the movie like this is where like the the flock of dinosaurs come running over and here's the the log where they hide behind and like all the dinosaurs are jumping over like like standing like I saw like yeah I went to the theater in 94, whenever I 95. I saw this, like, this has been with me for decades. It's like, I'm standing, where they made that. It's like, it's super fucking cool to see all that stuff.

Like, you know, you've been, I've been to a few sets, but like, to be in Hawaii, like to be that, like, in a such different place, and then all of a sudden you just wander into a set where she's like, oh, this is, yeah, they're supposed to be that, like, in a such different place and then all of a sudden you just wander into a set where she's like, oh, this is, yeah. They're supposed to be dinosaurs. It's still there. Yeah.

And then they also some of the more recent movies, like, oh, not as excited. That was a volcano. This is one of those other sets where I was like, what, okay, fine, yeah, that's cool. Most of the loss. Yeah. Wow, it never occurs to me like, how,

maybe that's something that's slipping away and maybe it's something I don't notice as much anymore and maybe because it's a fact that like so much stuff is shot on green screen and like digitally altered or like backgrounds or digitally replaced or stuff like that. It's been a long time since I saw a new thing where I recognized what I was looking at. That was short.

And like in a place like, oh, this is like two people, or this is a group of people in a place that I recognize. It isn't invented at all. But also like, what are you gonna do? I feel like as a storyteller, you're not gonna ever, you never wanna tell people where you are

unless it's very specific to the story. Sure, no one. Or it's New Yorker LA. Right, yeah. Yeah, it's like, Fargo makes sense. You wanna see like all of those places, but like, do you need to know that it's Austin?

Do you need to know iconic Austin things? Probably not, and I feel like that's a lot of it. Yeah, and it's not so much, I guess in my mind, it's to either dated or timestamp it, or location stamp something. I just feel like maybe the, using real place, filming things in the using like real place, filming things in like real locations, real backgrounds.

Also like there is just something that cannot be faked about like a lived in place, which is like very hard to replicate digitally with backgrounds. So there's just something very, and even if you don't recognize it, it's like, oh, people lived there. Like that is something that.

The last show that felt like that for me was Res Dogs. Reservation Dogs. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. And I think a lot of it though is I grew up within like spit and distance of where that show was shot. And so like a lot of just like, huh, there's like, not that I recognize any specific place, but the vibe and like what I grew up around

was very similar to what like. And so like, I would say would say that is a very specific, you go watch that show. That is a very specific part of Oklahoma that is like a 30 mile radius of Tulsa. And it's just like, oh, I remember this, this is great. And it does feel to your point.

All of those sets feel very lived in that production team, that production design team did a great job with that show. I feel like I just watched something very recently. Oh, yellow jackets. Yellow jackets. I hate that's really good. It is really good. I'm not all the way through it yet, but the production design of that show is out. Fucking standing. It's pretty great. They nail the stuff that takes place in the like 90s versus like it again very lived in like you go into a space to like, oh man this is a shithole trailer and it's not like one. It really feels like where you're like, again, very lived in. Like, you go into a space, you're like, oh man, this is a shit hole trailer.

And it's not like one, it really feels like where you're like, oh, this is another one. Like, exactly. It's like, oh, this wasn't designed to look like a shit hole trailer. This is like, maybe a shit hole trailer they got and like was already kind of like this. Cause like, there is something to be said.

And again, it's like one of those, like one of the more wonderful subtle arts of filmmaking is getting, like production designing a place to look so authentic and lived in and not like dressed. Which is like it's whole other thing. It's funny you say that because that same trip where I saw the Jurassic Park Valley, if you cross the highway and go down just like a mile or two,

that's where they filmed like Karate Kid II, which is said in Okanala, but you go there and you're like, oh, this is said in Okinawa, but you go there and you're like, oh This is the place where like the the hook comes swinging down and Daniel like dodges it. It's like weird That's also right here like it's been distance away. Yeah, like you can see them from each other. It's so strange Wow, I think I spent the place where they film Lord of the Rings, like Hobbiton. Oh no, I've never been down there. That's pretty cool to see.

That new show looks pretty good. They had a commercial for it during the Super Bowl. A Super Bowl? Yeah, it's a show, rings of power. I thought I was going to be in the movie. I like that they left it in the universe like the same What's his name who directed it Peter Jackson? Yeah Peter Jackson universe like everybody's yeah It's the same design, so you still feel like you're in that same world because it's before the Lord of the Rings

I guess yeah, there was there was again to not to speak of online discourse, but there was like talk of like It's it's very invoked to go and like rehab, like actually bad movies and just like, oh, they weren't that bad. And there was talk of like, we don't need to rehab like the Hobbit movies because they were like, decidedly awful. Sure. And shot in 60 frames a second

and like look like trash. And if you saw like the behind the scenes like featurette of the make the Hobbit, you have never seen a man look more depressed than Peter Jackson makes. No, I'm serious. He didn't want to, right? No, like, there were supposed to be

other directors making it. Right. He didn't want to, he was like, but then I feel like he was under contract too or some look was kind of in. It would be like, Dilturo, and then they, and like, he started and he was like, oh, never mind.

And they never mind, dropped out, and he took back over, but they didn't have a script. They were like, rewriting stuff like on the day. Again, a movie and property with more money behind it than you could possibly imagine was still like writing scenes on the day, choreographing scenes on the day. And then it would cut to Peter Jackson

looking like a pile of a man. Just like sitting in a chair. Talking to a longie, talking. Just like, uh-huh, and like making someone coming up and going, this sort of, this sort, and he goes, um, that's all. And just like, like, look, as like, meanwhile directing, like one of the most popular franchises of all time.

Just like, I don't know, I can't remember the last time I've been as mad as I was at the end of the second of those movies, where it's like you finally see the dragon, it starts to fight them and then flies off. It doesn't need to be three movies. It then flies off to attack the town and then the credits roll.

You're like, we were just about to start a fight. Right. This was the action, see that the whole movie was building to this. And then the third movie starts with that fight and it takes like two seconds. Another fantastic example of this, sorry, we're probably in the show at some point. But another really fantastic example of this is go back and watch the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. First one, what a blast.

Great adventure movie. So fun. So fun. Still to this day, I maintain that the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie is a ton of fun and a blast. Great adventure movie. It's so fun. It's so fun. Still to this day, I maintain that the first part of the gear movie is a ton of fun and a blast. There, I can't remember if it's the second or the third one, but one of them is like almost three hours long and it is a three hour setup for the next movie.

It's got me second one. It's the second one. It probably is the second one, but it's just like literally nothing happens. It is all preamble to get to number three. Number three. And I was just like marveling at it. I was like, it's like, it's like, literally nothing happens. It is all preamble to get to number three. And I was just like marveling at it. I was like, it literally goes to credits. I'm like, you have to be kidding me.

This was literally a two and a half hour setup for the next movie. I could not believe it. Shocking, shocking to me. The, you have you seen Dune? Yes. That was, I really enjoyed that movie, but I found it so funny how much they advertised

Zendaya. She's been in a line. She's been in a two line. She's been in a two line. She's been in a two line. She's been in a two line. In that movie. And I guarantee you, she was probably on set for a day.

Oh, she might be on screen for three minutes. But it's all setting up for like in the next two. And it's like part two, sure, which I get. But it's just like, it's just, it feels like false advertising in a way. I enjoy that perfume commercial that she was on. Yeah. That's all, that's just, it feels like false advertising in a way. I enjoy that perfume commercial that she was doing. Yeah. That's all that's pretty much what it was. That's what it was.

That Terrence Malik movie that was weirdly in there for a hot minute. Exactly. Gustas shows over in two minutes. Yeah. Oh, people should watch the most. It's on tomorrow. We have five episodes.
