Everyone welcome to the Steve podcast this week brought to you by hello fresh and RTX I may have heard both of those fine products before We'll talk more about them later. I'm Gus. I'm Gavin. I'm playing. I have already And I'm good. Are you my mic fell down and blazed side showed cake? I'm good. He's that no

No, I just had a bunch of water before we started good Did you breathe? Yeah, well we were in such a rush and I was running in and I thought you guys were starting to rush. You guys were just yelling five seconds ago. No, actually we were in a rush. You were like, no, we're getting good. Well, I mean, you're late already. So I'll be in five by bother rushing more. You were fine.

Well, you're late? No, I was like 20 minutes early. But then you left. We were about to go and you left. Yeah, I had to pee and then I had to get drink water to replenish the pee that I just peed. Is that the way it works? That's the way it works. Yeah. Is it it? But then he left we were about to go and he left it to pee and then had to get drink water to replenish the pee that I just pee Or is it it's all science how much water do you drink? I really you don't pee You reach equilibrium. I think I do like three of these

Three of those and those are like P already so I'm once what's every two days just when the orange gel comes out You know you're doing fine the podcast is pretty typed. I feel like I should say that right off the top It's a it's a holiday here in the US. Rich cheese is closed So we're pre-taping this podcast. That was giving me grief about my memorial day knowledge that I said I was honoring men and women who have served this country and From a moral day and he was like it's only for people who died. I don't agree with that veterans days for everyone still from Memorial Day and he was like, it's only for people who died. I don't agree with that. Veterans Day is for everyone. Still, I think it's important to pause

and honor the people. What is the anniversary? Why do we celebrate Memorial Day? To life force, that's when we are the country. So shut up. What? What is the anniversary? Is it a date that celebrates something in particular?

I thought so. I know Veterans Day is, I'm not sure about Memorial Day, let me look at Memorial Day. It shows that it is the Beauty thing and labor days to celebrate all the laborers Right those who toil yes The common folk I Guess not nope

Not significant to the day. They just kind of yeah, this seems like they just kind of pick something So are you giving me shit about my knowledge of Memorial Day is really undecided? I acknowledge I did know and I looked it up. You just sit there like I'm American. No, you didn't. No, you didn't. You tried to grill me and try to corner me and say, what is it? Tell me because like you like you knew the answer. Yeah, but you didn't look it up. I'm like, oh, I asked the question like, I don't know that I'm gonna, I'm gonna better myself by researching and learning something today. When I artfully deflected back to you, I fully deflected it.

Then you admitted that you didn't know what it was. Please. I realized I've been using a word wrong. What word? What's funny? What were I'm decimate? Oh, yeah, I learned that because it's a World of War Z. I think everyone uses the word decimate wrong.

I think so, yeah. Wait, what does it mean, Blake? Oh, fuck. If I had to say, it's like word decimate wrong. I think so. Wait, what does it mean, Blake? Oh, fuck. If I had to say, it's like another type of destruction. Like you decimated that birth they came. You destroyed a whole of destruction. Like if I decimated a birth they came. It's only a total destruction.

Total destruction. That's correct. Blame it 100% correct. I think I'm wrong. You're wrong. Think about the word now. Decimate. Oh, decimal.

Is the root? So then it would be like you only partly destroyed something? That's specifically one tenth. Yeah. And to reduce something by 10%. Yeah, like one and 10. Yep, so I destroyed. Grab a toss behind it, you know, decimate it.

Yeah, I use it like, I've always used this like total annihilation. What it's really like a tenth, one tenth annihilation. Oh, I'm going to it now, totally in context. Like when somebody takes a slice of pizza, I'm gonna go, you fucking decimates me! You eat that pizza! They're awesome slice pizza. It just means something different now.

Yeah. Awesome means like, pretty cool. It's come on the other way. But didn't it used to mean scary? Awesome is like, it's firing on. It's firing, yeah. It's just like, oh my god, I've never seen anything like this before. Awesome is like, it's firing on. It's firing, yeah. It's just like, oh my god, I've never seen anything like this before. Now, awesome is like, you made some toast.

Well, I feel like, awesome and the best. I didn't, they both mean nothing anymore. I feel like Americans have destroyed awesome. They pretty much, I don't think the Europeans usually that way. Awesome is now when you go to McDonald's and the shake machine isn't broken. That's like the level of awesomeness. It makes me think of that interview with, was it Robert Smith?

Remember the cure? Oh, yes. It's like the difference between British and American. Are you as excited as I am? Well, by the sounds of it, no. Yeah, that's the equivalent of the useful word. Like, when I'm on the phone with tech support and they say, do you have a number I can call you back on in case we get disconnected and I give them my number

and they say awesome. That might be the worst use case of awesome ever. Oh, you have a phone number. Awesome. Literally the opposite. I like when awesome is used properly, like if you read an old book and it's like, the destruction was awesome. And it's like, the destruction was awesome.

And it's like, yeah. The birthday cake was awesomely decimated. Well, the best is interesting because what if you were only allowed to use that once in your life? When would you use it? Or you had to keep track of, every time you said something was the best, is this better than that?

Like, and you can get more, you know what? Every time you grow and as you experience things in life, you may find something better that becomes your new the best. It's like a slot in your inventory that is occupied, but you only have one slot. So it would be your awesome, then. What would you describe as awesome in your life? If you say Meg Turnie, I'm gonna punch you.

I don't know, you have to come back to me. That one. I just see some, well what I would consider awesome footage. Have you seen our planet? No, haven't. The show. Yeah, not the one that you are now. It's really flat.

I don't know that I have seen our planet. I think I've seen it. It's exactly the same as planet Earth. Right, that's why I'm wondering if I've seen it around. But in the second episode, there's a bunch of slow-mo shots of, because there's less ice, all these warruses are clambering up mountains to rest on

where they usually would just sit on ice, and there's too many of them on there, and there's all these footage of them just shoving each other and falling off the cliff, and you just see warruses tumbling through the air, and smack in their heads on rocks and rolling down, and there's just like 500 dead warruses. tumbling through the air like smack in the heads on rocks and like rolling down And there's just like a bunch. There's like 500 dead warruses. That's not the same awful, but the footage is incredible Like it's like the fact that we filmed that

It's unbelievable the fact that we caused that Literally was it yeah, I'm always fascinated by just my statistics like Somebody in the world takes the biggest poop every day. And they don't know it. But they have to. Everybody, they might. Every single day. Well, he thinks anyone has this poop. Do you think anyone's ever done it twice?

Oh, absolutely. There's like, once you do it once, you're probably more inclined. Like, you're in the elite athlete. Right, like, then 90 pound grandmother isn't gonna like just suddenly step up and go for the title one day? It's probably a certain kind of person,

like the rock that qualifies for that, right? And what are these dudes who's on like the learning channel or something like that? But I always wonder too, it's like, what have we missed? All the amazing stuff we've caught now on camera. Ever since everyone's had these camera phones in their pockets,

we've gotten even more amazing stuff. There's so much stuff that we've just missed and that nobody would believe. Like maybe somebody even saw it, but they're like, yeah, now you wouldn't believe it. Like I saw an eagle drop of fish and then another eagle swept down and picked it up or something like that.

Was it that nature at that moment where the alligator is a fighting hippo and then the lion's got, was it? They try to eat a water buffalo and then the Lions show up and then the water buffalo come back. I think they called the battle of the Serengeti. That is awesome. How often does that happen?

That must happen every week. Yeah, that was fun. We might not do it. It's not on camera. The subreddit that I, like, do you have like a guilty pleasure subreddit? It'll probably. Probably. You don't want to say it. Choosing beggars. Oh, choosing beggars. Do you have like a guilty pleasure subreddit? And all probably.

Probably don't want to say it. Choosing beggars. Oh, choosing beggars. Yeah, that one is that. What's that? It's people who ask for stuff, but then they're very entitled about it. You entitled about it. Like one of my favorites was there was a Facebook post that a woman I think wanted to

ride somewhere at a certain time and they had to have of SUV or a pickup to take her. And then it goes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. somewhere at a certain time and they had to have of SUV or a pickup to take her. And then it goes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And someone goes, well, I've got this, you know, but I don't have a pickup or an SUV, but I got four seats, but she's saying what it's for her. And she goes, not good enough, need a SUV next.

And then like other people are being very kind to her and she's going just next, next, and somebody goes, fuck you. And she's like, get the fuck out of here. So choosing beggars and tails from the front desk. It's like people who work at hotels. Yeah, just to shoot that they're encounter. Right, yeah.

But the next door thing, do we talk about the people who are next door who are having a baby, they were having their first baby, and they were like, they're late 20s. And so they went on next door, which is like in the US, I don't know if it's other places. It's this like, it's like a community,

it's like a regional Facebook, basically for your a regional face. It's like a core neighborhood. So you put in your zip code and you get your neighborhood and they kind of just have cornered that market on that. But it was them reaching out to the people in the neighborhood saying, hey, we're about to have a kid. We would really appreciate it if they had a name for it, like a meal train, which is a thing I guess

where people make meals for someone who's like going through a medical problem and neighbors, but they usually do that on their own. They don't get it requested to do. And this young father or father to me was like, yeah, I'm just going to be very stressed with a new baby. And so if you guys could just start a meal train, here's some things that we'd like to eat. Yeah, you know, if you could provide like macaroni cheese, we hate these kinds of foods to bring this.

And it's like, and if you guys could just organize this That'd be great Well the response actually honestly on the next door stuff was actually okay because the only people who responded Probably because it's regional and you can They were they were positive like I can do this and I maybe you know their response like mmm I don't really like you like buffalo chicken or something like that. But once it got viral, then of course everybody fucking pile on and was just like had a lot to say about this dude. So.

So what are your guilty pleasure subreddit? Probably in keeping with this nature thing of things that are recorded. There's a subreddit called the bull wins. And it's all like running with the Bulls, bullfighting footage where the Bull Winds, and it is like, I can't stand that stuff. I, if you live in a country where they have bullfighting,

and it's important to your culture, good on you, but I think that's just horrible. Jivelle, he always tweets pictures of like a bull with its horn right up someone's ass. Dude, there's one foot of where, uh, oh, I've seen that one. Yeah, the bull put his horn through the guy bottom of the guys jaw and out of the mouth.

God. That like Timothy Dolan, the motto village. I just looked up the bull wins and the top post right now is titled Violent Goring, Many Deaths, Humans and Horses. Some of them get to like, not say for life stuff. Like, if you see NS deaths, humans, and horses. Some of them get to like, not say for life stuff. Like some of them like you have to do. If you see NSFL, maybe stay watching that. And that, like that, yeah.

But it's usually a dude who's like, standing there in a crowd of people, and he's like, King of the world, because there's this bull he's facing off and like, all these people are cheering, and then the bull. Or a bull, who's behind him, and just clots him, and he's out like a light. He's out like a light. What is the reason that still done is just traditions?

Yeah keep going. I mean, this is Christmas. I'm sorry I watched that. Yeah, there's some of them. Don't watch the notches. You just like, those are really like, those not good. Yeah, it's like that the subreddit that's now long gone, not to watch people die. Oh, yeah. So I'm really glad they got rid of that, honestly, because you can't really filter who's watching it. Who needs that fill of that? I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. I feel like, well, that's pain in my bad light. I feel like people that would work in a line of work in which they see that kind of stuff would be okay to see it. Like, I feel like my brother and my brother and law is a firefighter. He sees a fucked up shit all the time.

He always has the craziest stories. And I feel like he can review that and be like, oh yeah, that sucks. Yeah. Yeah, I get a more objective view on it. Yeah. Is anybody else watching Turnable? Oh my God, it's a fucking good dude.

I want to say though, it's kind of like an offshoot of the Darwin Awards. Like, people seem to like those Darwin Awards. It's really somebody dying in a tragic way. Yeah. But everyone's like, well, they did something stupid, so they deserve it. That's kind of like an extension of that. It's obviously an architecture novel.

No, I'll let you guys talk about Chernobyl now. I just want to have that last one. Yeah, I feel like, if they just are the third episode last night. And I feel like a lot of people I know are not watching it. By the time that this episode airs, than the fourth episode will be coming out soon. But yeah, it's fucking great and they introduced this character. I don't know if he's gonna come back

that minor guy. Oh yeah. Fantastic. Yeah, it's great. It's a... It's scary. When the Chernobyl accident happened, I was a little kid.

So I vaguely remember hearing about it on the news, but you don't really understand. No, didn't they massively underreport it first, though? Yes. They were finding traces of radioactivity just around Europe. Right. And they were like, oh, by the way, this major thing happened. That's how they discovered it is.

I guess like a nuclear reactor in Sweden started picking up radioactivity in the air. And based on wind patterns and everything, they had to be coming from the Soviet Union. So that's how they tried to really contain the news at first. Where is it, Ukraine? It was in the Ukraine. And at first, it's just like a colossal mismanagement watching it happen when it goes down. When the accident first happens, they bring out

their devices to measure how much radiation's in the air. But the devices they have only go up whatever the scale they use is, it only goes up to 3.6. And so they're saying, oh, it's 3.6 on the meter. That's like, and that's like an X-ray. It's fine. Right. They're like, oh, that's just like getting a chest X-ray. It's not a big deal. And then they're like, oh, but the good meter is in the safe. We need to go open the safe and get it. And they get the, the good meter out. And it's like, oh, it's actually 10,000. Go on. No, it melted the needle in that way. We have to get another. It burned out the first one.

We have to get another one. I remember when Call of Duty Modern Warfare came out, I guess it was Call of Duty 4, and they had that Chernobyl mission where you're like fighting in the ruins or whatever like that. And I got super interested, and I haven't read about Chernobyl since, and I really wanna go and read about it,

and see like the death toll and all that stuff, but I'm also interested in the way that they're presenting the information show that I'm just like, I'm staying away from it until afterwards because that show is just so fucking good. I forgot about the crash thing that happens. I don't wanna give you any serious words. It's so scary to watch scientists being ignored.

I'm just having the people, bureaucracy, a bureaucratic system, just overriding and making decisions. And the scientists being like, why did you do it? Why did you decide this? Is it just like an arbitrary number you came up with? And so it's happening now with global warming.

Right. Yeah, it's kind of an allegory. Yeah. It's just like, for some reason when you mentioned global warming, you considered making a political statement. It's like, nothing to do with politics. Right. Just science.

Science. I think it's a really good time for this Chernobyl many series to be coming out. It's like, it's nothing to do with politics. Right. It's just science. It's science. I think it's a really good time for this Chernobyl mini series to be coming out because it's like, we're kind of doing the same thing again right now. Yeah. It does seem like that's a defense now for things. It's like if you don't like it, just make it seem like it's a political thing.

Like, you know, people trying to be healthy, just say, oh, you know, health is, you know, if you're working on the sugar industry, be like, oh, that's a political thing. People are trying to be healthy. They're just trying to make you live a certain way. Yeah, there was that thing that, uh, with the jobs, there's like the jobs for everything.

Was it, uh, AOC got kind of, people started making fun of her when she said that, you know, what is AOC? Alejandro Ocasio Cortez. Oh, okay. That, uh, she, she's got an acronym? Is that people that do people call her AOC? What have you been?

Yeah, what have you been? I know her, but I didn't know this AOC thing. You know it by a full name. Yeah. So that's why. She started pushing initiatives to have clean water for people everywhere. And then she gets attacked.

Like, oh, this is some liberal initiative. And then her response is, why is this a politicized thing? Because she's liberal. Right. Like, don't you, isn't that just like a basic humor? I said, like an elitist thing. It's like, we should have clean water for our children. Isn't that just at a most basic level?

Do you not want clean water for everyone? Yeah, we're kind of fucked up. Yeah. We're just kind of fucked up. It's bizarre. Did you see that Bill Myye video where he's like, you know, safety guy who's on it, does like this whole thing where he sets the planet on fire.

Yeah. Yeah, it was Bill Nye cussing about how we're really dumb now and it was really funny because his delivery is amazing and you're just so used to Bill Nye being like, hey, he's the science guy, I watched him as a kid. You know, the tough part for me about those kinds of things is that everyone gets painted and it has been going all the way back to the 80s and then even Al Gore when he did the inconvenience

truth. It's like they get painted as alarmists, you know. And you know, you should have a certain degree of skepticism for things that are hard to measure. But then it's like, there's this tipping point of which, you know, most people believe in it, but there's these holdouts that really block progress or block the ability to remedy or work on something. And then when we get the point where we can't solve the problem, those people are just kinda gone. They're just like, oh, that was wrong.

It's like Brexit. Yeah. It's kind of the same thing where it's like, we're gonna do all this, it's gonna work. Oh, it's not working. Who's accountable? Bye. Yeah. You know, or it's gonna work. Oh, it's not working. Who's accountable? Bye. Yeah.

Yeah. You know, or it's like any kind of progress of any kind. There's always people that block it. I always think about today when people are yelling and screaming about stuff. And I always think back to the photos of the civil rights movement in the 50s in the US or middle of the century.

Yeah. And I always think about the people who are, you know, there's black people sitting at the counter with a not allowed to sit, and there's people that are right behind them, like screaming, you know? Right, I know, shakes on their head. Yeah, that kind of stuff.

And it's like, it's like, what a, how ignorant of like the possibilities of history that person has to be in order to be in that moment. And they're like frozen in that moment forever, but you know who they are, you know what I mean? And if, you know, today they'd be like, everything's fine, but it's like these are the people that block us and hold us back from things. Right.

Can't really equate racism to climate change in particular, but god damn, it's just like you sometimes you just gotta like at some point go, okay, the evidence is overwhelming. I just feel so sick of having the whole planet stay by people who are gonna be like 70 or a plus making these decisions. It's like, you don't gotta be around. Why do we listen to people so old about stuff about the future? Well, one of the arguments too is that, you know,

we can't affect the earth, brazes the temperature and cools. But even if that's the case, if the earth goes into a warming period naturally, that's still gonna kill us. So anything that we can do to mitigate that would be a good thing. It's in our best interest.

And the other thing, I wonder is like, if we invest in these industries, and people say it's gonna cost a lot of money and people have to pay more for goods, like, well, aren't we creating new jobs and stimulating and building a new type of economy? That's a long-term thinking. Right, it's like, so we get to a point where

the problem is the dude who works in the coal mine isn't gonna go work. Right. But you know, we just need to acknowledge that that's not in CO2. That's the vision. We're not going to have a coal industry in the future. Right. Well, that's easy to say when you don't work in the coal mine, which I get I listen, I'm

a big believer in what you're saying. I'm playing Devils advocate. I'm just saying that the coal industry is already on a huge decline. That should already be not something that... So we still have it now. We still have people who work in coal mines. Maybe we shouldn't have future generations aiming to do that. Maybe we should be looking at what can we do for the next generation of people who would be doing that, what can they do instead?

Right. One thing I think about with my kids, because they're going to grow up in a completely different world than I grew up in, especially at one on the way, that kid will grow up in a really different world. Is in their lifetime, we could evolve as a society beyond jobs. I mean, we talk about automation and the danger to jobs. Everything is jobs, jobs, jobs, danger to jobs.

It's like, we can't even imagine a world where we don't have paid vocations, you know what I mean? But if the machines, there was somebody on Twitter, I wish I'd have saved it years ago. They said, how bad do we have to have paid vocations, right? I mean, but if the machines, there was somebody on Twitter, I wish I'd have saved it years ago. They said, how bad do we have to have fucked up? If machines are about to take away all the jobs, and that's a bad thing. And I agree with that.

It's like, we're just locked into this thing. And so when people like Elon Musk talk about universal service fund, everyone's reaction is, oh, so we're just gonna give everybody a bunch of money. It's like, you're not gonna have a choice. It's either gonna be people who own the machines that do all the work, and they have 99% of the money, or you're going to have universal service fund where people just are given money,

and there's a standard of living that's provided to us by technology. Or do we get to a point eventually where we transcend the need for money? Right. Where things are just available to you. On some, like, what, we have like printers, like 3D printers will get us down that road. Right. But there's a point coming, at some point in the future,

when we're going to evolve beyond the old together. The old together. I saw. I think people do things as new- That's true. As new jobs. You think so? I mean, when people say, these machines are going to

take away all these jobs, it's like, take away current jobs. Those still, those still be future jobs that don't exist. I feel like that's when the society is going to take a shift to like more art-based stuff because like you're always going to need art. We're massively shifting to service. Like you look at stuff like DoorDash and Uber and things like that. Those are huge industries.

They're services. Automations about to get rid of those too. Why wouldn't the robots be able to do those jobs as well? Exactly, writing scripts and stuff. Sure. That being said though, Gus, we don't have a basis. Gavin's right, there could be new jobs created, we wouldn't be able to fathom what those jobs would be.

Just like someone who was working agriculture in the 1700s, couldn't imagine a computer scientist. If you're looking back 50 years, people who lived and were working in the workforce at that time wouldn't be able to picture jobs the 1700s couldn't imagine a computer scientist. Even looking back 50 years. Yeah. You know, people who lived and were working in the workforce at that time wouldn't be able to picture jobs that were available now. Right.

I saw, when I was in Singapore speaking of automation, I saw a robot doing a job and it was really striking to me. It stopped me. I was walking through the casino at Marina Bay, Sans. And there was like a cylindrical metal object that was kind of moving around on the casino floor, like between slot machines and stuff. So I walked up to it,

and I put the fuck is that thing. It was a robot that was filled with drinks. And I guess like it had a path that would go around the casino. And if you wanted to drink, there was a big red button on it. You hit it and it stopped for a few seconds. You just grabbed the drink you want off of it then it would go off again.

That's R2D2 on job as sale barge then. Right. So it's like that's fucking cool. Did you go like this and then a lightsaber went to? It's like that's already I've already seen like that was the job like somebody theoretically would have been like a waiter a waiter a waitress like coming around cocktail waitress giving drinks to people at a casino floor, but it's like oh no There's a robot doing that now and it doesn't have to take your order and go back

It's already carrying all the drink is carrying way more drinks than a human can carry at one how big is this crazy? What the robot the other robot it was probably a really just almost as tall as me and maybe Two and a half feet in diamond. Oh, so it's a walking refrigerator is what you're saying. But it wasn't like you opened a door. It just had drinks on the outside. I find a photo. What did it like make a drink custom drink? No, it all the drinks I think were made probably in the back put on it and then it was sent

out. Right. I remember I was in a hotel. I think it was a hotel in New York or something like a while ago. A hotel. And you put that. That's a jade small hotel. Whoa. That something like a wildy guy hotel and you put that shit small hotel whoa that looks like a Star Wars thing so those buttons on top that I would stop it the one I saw had red buttons

I guess I mean that's the same thing I mean it was in kill mode That's incredible when it goes to red it's in kill mode with the ice turn red Well, so we're at the Yotel and then there had this thing where it's like you had there's a slot You put your suitcase in slot robot arm comes in who picks it up who puts it up on the shelf I turned red. So we're at the hotel and then there had this thing where it's like, you had, there's a slot, you put your suitcase in the slot, robot arm comes in, oh, picks it up, ooh, puts it up on the shelf thing and then it's just got rose and rose of luggage

and then you give you tag, you believe and you come back, you know, and then you give the tag, brings your luggage back. And I remember people just staring at this thing and taking video and pictures of it. It was just like really novel thing that in like five years time, people would be like, why were they taking pictures of that?

Like if I saw in that moment, I realized like how stupid I should like convey about food was the same way when it first came in. People would say, what? They had automats. Was that exactly what I was thinking of? Are we fucking ancient? I was, well that was before our time.

Automats were like cafeterias, but it was just walls with vaults. Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You open a door and you have the thing. Like, oh, I want the meatloaf. So you go to the meatloaf door and put your coins in and then open that. It's like, they were a 50s thing, right?

It's like if you went and let's like the post office and all the peel boxes had clear glass doors and you could put money into them for food. Yeah, why did that go away? Yeah, on the other side, isn't it just like a refrigerator or like a kitchen? We actually ate at an automat. Gav, I think you were there in Amsterdam. We had those croquettes. Do you remember that? Hard to remember. So, yeah, and it was an automat. And I got excited because it was like, what the fuck? There's an auto mat in 2012. Stimulated an old memory.

Yeah. I thought about that since I was in there. And that's the thing where we got the croquettes was in these little doors. So before off, we went into that place with the big machine that played that really loud song. I can't remember order of events in Amsterdam or virtually. I remember there was Anne Frank, Pancakes, and there was somewhere in there is some croquettes and stuff like that.

So how? There's something neat about Amsterdam? No, new ideas like that, but just kind of, it's been around for a while and it's kind of like old schools. It's almost like a steampunk. Like I remember when I was in Japan, there was this thing where you go up,

you enter in your coins, you type in what you want and then it prints out a little ticket thing, and then you hand it to the kitchen staff. And then just that machine itself was like, it looked super old, but it was also like a really revolutionary way of ordering food, I thought. I don't know.

That was the first meal I had in Japan. Was at a place like that, and I was so fucking confused. Cause I walked in and like I sat down at the counter, and then when I had the counter, it was just like pointing behind me. Yeah. She was pointing at the machine. I was like, I turned on like, I at the counter, and the one behind the counter was just pointing behind me. She was pointing at the machine.

I was like, I turned on like, I think it just looks like a vending machine. I was like, okay. Yeah, and you just type it all in, going, going, going. Do you think this would be a good business to start, right? I buy a plane. It's a plane, what are the ones that they put out fires with? They release all the liquid.

Sure. But it's filled with sunscreen, and you just go over the beaches, and make sure everyone's good. But you have to have a way to make sure that people on the beach pay but it's filled with sunscreen and you just go over the beaches and make sure everyone's good. But you have to have a way to make sure that people on the beach pay for it. You can have people mooching off your sunscreen. No, it's a public service thing because it's we have universal health care like reduces skin cancer.

Not in America. Not in America. You can make your money. Not in the current America. I don't think people would like that. I didn't think they would either. But, not for those like sprayers, like you know the pump sprayers and spray people. Or what if you had like a spray tan station, right?

Where like that goes and rents, sprays you everywhere, just like by sunscreen instead. I remember years ago, I had read an article, and I talked about in the podcast, about how the grape beer or reef was being affected by the amount of sunscreen that people are wearing in the water. I had read that.

And a lot of our Australian audience got very upset with me for saying that because A, Grisbear Reef is a national treasure to them, but B, they have a huge sunscreen culture. And I'll say that. Slips that thought. And that's always stuck with me. And they were just like, no, fuck you. Like mad about it. And Australians are kind of, you know, this thing was wrong.

Yeah, they said, I didn't know what I was talking about. And I shouldn't say stuff like that. So it didn't damage the way I was talking about. And it's very clearly. When it came out, yes. That's definitely what's happening. Right. And Hawaii in particular has banned now

certain kinds of sunscreen. Is it an ingredient? Like, can you still have sunscreen that doesn't include the damaging stuff? Yes, I think so. I believe so. God, I, you know what, I really feel like that with all these lawsuits

I'm reading about with bear, which makes roundup. I keep reading about these lawsuits of billions of dollars that are being awarded to individuals because they can show they got cancer from using these products. And it's just like, we just don't know sometimes. You like the effect something's gonna have long term. It's like, oh shit.

I think about that every single time I buy a container to drink out of. It's like, do I get a metal container? Do I get a plastic container? What the fuck do I get? I can just drink out of, and it has them encoded with like some kind of like cyanide teflon.

I use this, this, now gene, because they're like BPA-free and stuff like that. And I see them like. They use something else though. It's bullshit and I'm probably gonna die from this thing. So I had a friend who was AD-ing on one of her shoots and she always brought utensils to the set. You know, she never wanted to use plastic

and she would drink out of a glass mason jar. Yeah. Oh, that's a really good idea. So I bought a lid for my mason jar and that was like my thing for like two weeks. I was carrying around a glass Mason jar. Yeah, go on a date, go up, meter, 90 seconds in, and it's like, okay, we're gonna go to the gym,

you need to sign this waiver and stuff like that. And as I'm like seeing their talking to her, the fucking Mason jar slips out of my hand, like out of the lid thing and just shatters on the gym floor, and it's like, I'll take the cancer. I'm just gonna drink it in the BPA, whatever bottle. It's the last embarrassing long term to get the cancer I because I almost died in that moment from embarrassment. It was you on a date in a gym, right?

Yeah, it's a climbing gym. It's a it's a really good date. It's it's yeah I also like to do activity based things for my dates, so right cuz you get to wear like I'm sweat tank top and This one up and what? Tank top and you're like, oh, this one up. I don't know if you're gonna deal with coming down. Hey, you wanna go out this weekend? I gotta move an anvil. Oh, you know, maybe this thing over here.

So I we hadn't talked about this. This came out like a couple of weeks ago now, but Disney Outlined their timeline for the next three Star Wars films and the next three Avatar films. Really bad timing on that. Why do you say that? I, everybody's very divided on the Game of Thrones season finale and just like the end of the last season and stuff like that. And that's the bidding off and whatever the other Y-C or do I see.

Yeah, do I see. Guys that are going to be doing that. I mean, I think that's that's kind of dumb. That did people not love the first seven seasons or every everything else I was produced from it. Same boat completely. I'm very excited about it. The argument there is they had source material, source material from which to work for the first three seasons.

Well, a lot of people are saying seven and eight. They didn't like. I mean, the theory is that they're going to be doing an old republic for theirs, their trilogy. So if that's the case, then they still have source material to work off. So they just hate having free time. It's a good question. It's love money. It's also, well, that's the other thing too. It's like they made a ton of money. How much do you damn need? They get to be busy, you know, decades from this. I mean, the outrage over Game of Thrones really from a business standpoint,

their outrage meant absolutely nothing. The finale for Game of Thrones got 19.3 million viewers, 19.3 million. That is, in this day and age, to get somebody to watch a television show, 19, almost 20 million people to watch television show, is almost impossible. And that's a subscription.

Right, that's not even just a network. Like you can't get, I wanted to like to know what the numbers and the big bang finale were because that's been the number one show for fucking ever. That kind of went out like, I didn't even know that ended hated thing. Yeah, it's over. I think I know Sunday as well, didn't I?

Yeah. And it was like people were surprised at what little fan, the show got. I don't know who watches that show. It's really weird. That's a weird show because every time we go into a meeting at 18 million, watch Big Bang Theory. For the finale.

Right, and that's just on CBS. CBS, yeah. Which is free. That's a free channel. Yeah, you know, even if you pay for cable, you still have to pay extra to get HBO. And 19.3 million watched this series finale for the series that, as Blaine pointed out, very divided opinions over the quality of the series now.

But people still watched it to the tune of 19.3 million people. Very different approaches. Game of Thrones, you can't just like jump in season four or five and start watching it. But Big Bang Theory, standard sitcom, you could watch it, jump in and out anytime. I guess, yeah. I don't know any about the show. That's what you're gonna say. That show has a weird place for us because every time we go into a meeting

in like a television network meeting, we go to LA, it always comes up. They're like, oh, you guys are from the internet, I'm used to, you must love Big Bang Theory. It's like, no, no, it's just, yeah. It's like saying, if anything that's about like your culture or what you do for a living, like if you're a locksmith and you see somebody pick a lock

and a movie, you're like, fuck this. They do it, it's like completely wrong. It's an uncanny valley, you know? I got a guy we used to work for who was a rodeo cowboy. He couldn't watch Westerns, because like in the first two minutes, they would pull out a saddle and he goes, that's not the saddle they had back then.

You know, and it's like, and it ruins it for him. It takes him completely out of it, you know? I brought up an interesting point. Now I'm curious what movies, people that are proficient in whatever that movie is about, enjoy. I feel like Interstellar would be a good example because like Neil deGrasse Tyson was just like,

oh, Interstellar, you know, like a movie. He hated that movie. Neil deGrasse Tyson was just like, aww, Interstellar, you know, like a morning. He hated that movie. Neil deGrasse Tyson? He passed this shit out of it. Oh, I thought he was like tweeting about how great it was. Like, I remember his like stream of consciousness tweets. He was like, and there's like a fucking fight on a bunch of really accurate simulations

of what a black hole would look like. Wasn't it like, at the very, at the, sorry. I got mixed up. You're right. I was thinking gravity. He passed gravity. Oh, yeah, yeah, he got hell up, you're right. I was thinking gravity, he's bad. Oh, yeah, he got hell from bad gravity. Sorry, my mistake. Yeah, I'm the Titanic.

I'm the Titanic. Because the stars were in the wrong place. Oh, yeah. But then James Cameron changed it for me. Yeah. But yeah, I think you're right that they did a lot of advanced modeling of the black hole to display it and then it ended up being actually kind of quick. When that photo of the black hole came out,

oh yeah. And then you told me about that very testing video where he was explaining that was an awesome video. A great video. And then he's like, this is this here and he's like peeling up the back. He's like, you're actually seeing like this way around it. And they show the picture of the real black hole

and then from Instaularn. It's like, they nailed it. Yeah, absolutely. And the way they moved and the way that light and the stars around it would move. It's like damn. How did they simulate it so accurately? Sure. I mean, I'm sure they had an idea, you know, the rendit time must have been insane. No, probably. Have you guys seen the end game on iMacs? No.

I think I'm going to go back and watch the end game again. I'm going to go. I'm going to go. Oh yeah. Like probably next week. The last time I went to iMacs was in Stella when we're down the front. See, that's why I'm waiting to go because IMAX is the only we only have one IMAX theater in Austin real IMAX Yeah, and It's not a sign seating so you have to show up like two and a half hours early to get a half I fucking hate going there for that. That's why I wait like four or five weeks If there's a movie I want to see 9 max I just wait I think the last time I saw movie there might have been Avatar and not to make myself sound even older than I usually do.

Now you can do that. You can wait until the fifth week because it's not a physical print, so it doesn't degrade. Right. Like, before you, if you didn't go see a movie in the first few weeks, by the time you went to see it, it might have been spliced because the film broke or it would just degrade. Yeah, it's like, it'd be fucked up.

I like, oh, yeah. Then you get multiple copies. But the random so much. Prints were a lot. They didn't get multiple copies. But they run them so much. Prince were a lot, that was a big portion of the cost of movies period. Prince and advertising, PNA used to be the thing. But don't you buy just the license to use the print, you know, you got to physically paying for the print.

Like, surely if it runs out, you can get another one. They were massive. Well, that's several reels, most of all. Like, I think it's okay to say this. I'll just say I know somebody who ran a movie theater and one time they were showing a special movie and they ran the film because it was an old classic film, but they sold out tickets so they put it in another theater

and the way they did it was they started the reel in here and then when it reeled through, they grabbed it and they walked it across the hallway and then reeled it into the next projector. No, so the movie was just going through the hallway between the straight and then it was a little bit ahead in this Yeah, so the movie was just going through the whole way between the right. And then there was a little bit ahead in this theater, like probably like a minute or two ahead,

then it was in the other theater. I think rounded it down the hallway. Yeah, makes you kind of make sure you have signs that nobody fucking walks into the real while it's running. Dude, also, I don't know if it's still the case, but man, that was the fucking job when I was in high school. If you could get a job as a projectionist, it was like 18 bucks an hour.

And that was crazy in the 90s, like to get 18 bucks an hour. And there were people on you that were projectionists. It was like a sweet gig. Post-eat-to-see every movie. A little bit, but then you gotta watch my friend who did it and he's like, you gotta look at it every now and then you gotta like check in on every movie

and sometimes you run like eight theaters, and you gotta like go and look. And everyone just said how they changed the reels without a gap. They switch over. So they'll hold. There's an overlap. Yeah, go ahead.

Oh, and there's like a mark in one of the corners. I'll let this one fly club, so I don't need to fucking know if it's right. And then that's the cue to, they're called cigarette burns. Yeah. And there was two of them. So when you're getting to the end of the reel, you'd see a cigarette burn. It's called little circle in the corner top right, I think.

And that would go real quickly. You go by and then it would go usually they would cut at the end of a scene And they just let the tail run When they were shooting the scene they would have it be they would leave the edit much longer And so the projections could switch over to the other reel and have some ability to, like, you know, time. Yeah. Be funny if the actors just stopped the scene and then just looked at the camera. Just fight Williams did on.

It's also like, everyone goes nuts about coffee cups and water bottles in Game of Thrones. There's like so much stuff in old movies. It's like so bad. Like, like, I didn't know this, but there was also a Game of Thrones. There's like so much stuff in old movies. It's like so bad. Like, I didn't know this, but there was also a Game of Thrones. It was in the Battle of Hard Home, I think. There's a pickup truck in it.

No, that's not in the episode. It's not? No. That was in a making of, Oh really? Okay. Like a little segment. But like, there's stuff all the time in movies

that because it was on a 40-foot screen going by, and there was no ability to pause and go frame by frame They just left shit in movies all the time. It's like no one's gonna see this. I see this shit all the time now It's well not all the time I see in some shows in the transition from standard death to high death where they've gone from a 4 3 to a 16 by 9 aspect ratio You'll see shit like oh there's the boil on the corners here like they put foil around the lens And you couldn't see it in a 4 3 when it was mad't even was mad at it out, but now it's like, oh, yep, it's everywhere here. They're sea stand, you know.

Right. Yeah. Boom operator. You see that in, like, because I fall asleep watching friends a lot, but you can see where there was like a stand in, and they would have been mostly cut off by the 4-by-3, but you can see it now in this like clearly, just somewhat else. Like some other person is now instead of Cody Cox.

That's funny. Yeah, we were watching John Wick two last night, actually, and I was very, for some reason, I was very conscious of the stunt doubles, because there's a shitload of them, you know, for like major throws and things like that. And I could see like the cuts where it's like, they got like a steady shot on Canary Rooves,

like fighting three dudes, but then somebody grabs Canary Rooves and throws him, and then it's like all of a sudden a quick, tight close up, and then back to the wide shot. It's like, yeah, that's not can't use. It's just such high-scrooing now that you never used to have. Like if you go back and watch Doctor No,

the first Bond movie, I feel like there's just blatant editing mistakes all over that movie. There's like missing frames where they, because it was fine. Where they've clearly done two takes, and they didn't even cut to anything else. Just like a hard jump, and the woman's like, and it's like doing it again, it's like,

you just can't leave that, it's a movie, but they just did. Well, because you were in the movie theater, honestly, like going back to the deterioration of prints, movies would be like that because they'd have to, like the frames would get melted, but they just put them together. You were very used to seeing things jump around more

and probably more so back in the early days. And how else are you going to watch it once in the theater? And that was it. That was it. You weren't going to watch it again on cable. You were going to own it on home video. Like if you saw Game of Thrones, we all watched episode whatever. And then somebody came in and worked and I said, go, do you see the coffee cup? And you're like, what coffee cup? And it's, oh, it was in the scene with Daenerys with John when they were at the feast.

There's a coffee cup there and it's like, no, I didn't see that. When you show someone a picture of it, they're like, oh, that's ridiculous. Nobody fucking saw it. I did not see that. One question and I didn't see. 19 million saw it, put it on social media,

and everyone's like, that's ridiculous. It's like, it's really not that really. I don't care about that. Who's looking at these acts as fee in like the final scene again with Thres. Like, no, who's, what, what, what, what, don't care about that. Who's looking at these acts as feet in like the final scene of Game of Thrones? Like, no, who's? What, what, what, what, what? What, what, what, what, what I heard was also the water bottle

was probably also from a behind the scenes production still. That it, what, it might not have actually been in the actual episode. I thought the fewer pulling frames from the episode. I don't think that's where. They said the same thing with Jamie Lannister's non-gold hand. Oh, really? That was also from, like a BTS thing.

Yeah, I was on people's set. He forgot to put his hand on. Right. That they didn't CGI it on. I'm actually surprised when they put stuff out that's unfinished like that. If you go watch Infinity War and games not on DVD yet or on home video, I should say. Infinity War, they put unfinished scenes in and it's like, you know, don't do that.

Like Thanos is like 90% rendered. He looks like he should be in a doomed video game, but like a delete scene. Oh yeah, yeah. I was placed in the press. Freddie Wong tweeted something the other day, this video about how in end game, they didn't know how they wanted the adventure,

are end game spoilers okay? Well, I think we're past the point. I think they actually marvel plus Spider-Man homecoming or right from home trailer release was the day that it. They said that they weren't sure how they wanted the Avengers time travel suits to look. So those are not real suits in the movie. Those are all CGI'd on.

Crazy fucking insane. That actors were like, those suits do not physically exist. I mean, why, why are anything that? Why not just wear that the whole movie? I think what they said was they, when they filmed it, I have to go back and rewatch. Probably just when they filmed it, all the characters were wearing just their normal,

whatever suits, and that they decided they wanted something more cohesive, so they CGIed those suits onto them. There is one shot. It's a Hawkeye walking after he's just made the first jump, and you see his shoes. That's the only shot that I recognized that that was a fake suit. The rest of them I was like, yeah,

those are practical suits. Those are really wearing those. No, it's incredible. But it's so weird too. We're seeing this and we're talking about this movie today. 10 years from now, you'll watch that and go, how did we ever fall for this? Yeah.

And I thought about that watching John Wick 2. Last night, which John Wick just now, what two is? Three is coming out in the theater. But it's two or three years old, John Wick 2 at this point. Three, sorry two is? Three's coming out in the theater. But it's two or three years old, John Wicks too, at this point? Three, sorry out.

Yeah, three, sorry out. Which is why we were watching, because we would like to see it sometime this week if we can. Most of the gunshots in that RCG, and the bullet hits and the blood and all that, and it's like, I'm kinda like, yeah, I can kinda see it now, but in like five or six years,

I'll be like, what the fuck? How did we watch this? It's really like, I'm kinda like, yeah, I can kinda see it now. But in like five or six years, I'll be like, what the fuck, how did we watch this? It's gonna be like, what doctor know? Like, the actor was totally in a different position. Like the same kind of thing. Yeah, it's like, we fell for that. So it's just, you can't watch things in the context in which they came out.

I think it was in expendables where they really started messing with like fake blood splatter and muzzle flashes and stuff like that. I'm sure there's other movies before that did it, but that it's spindles is the one and muzzle flashes and stuff like that. I'm sure there's other movies before that did it, but that it's been those are the ones of the most egregious. I just love the old stuff where they'd have some dude with a pressurized tube

like coming out of his back. Do you ever see Suns of Anarchy? No. I watch a little bit of it. I watch the few seasons. Some of the shittiest blood effects I've ever seen it in any media. So bad.

Like the wrong color sometimes, like not affected a tool by the light of the scene mental. Did you just crazy? Watch the Hulk in end game versus the Hulk in the incredible Hulk at the beginning of the MCU. Iron Man and then the Edward Norton incredible Hulk, which was the second movie in the MCU. Fuck a night and day, dude. Now chronologically, or when it came out.

It's when it came out of belief. Yeah, because then after that, it was, yeah, he tried to hold, did not kick off the MCU. I think it was Thor. Yeah, and then Captain America. Yeah, and the Angley ones are not counted as that. Right. Boy, that Angley one was,

dark shit. I remember wearing, I had a, I had a, I had a, yeah, which I like Eric Banna. Yeah, that probably sunk his career for a few years, but like I remember wearing, I was wearing a Hulk shirt to that movie. And like I, I'm a, I was at that age

where like any movie was great, because I was just a kid and I had no like taste. And it was just like, yeah, this is fine. And I remember leaving a theater and being like, that was dog shit. And it's when I rip off my shirt, because it's so fucking terrible. I'm glad to hear you say it,

because you're a Star Wars fan. And like there's no, there was all this hate for the prequels. And I'm not a fan of the prequels, but I appreciate that like kids going because it's so fucking terrible. I'm glad to hear you say that because you're a Star Wars fan. And like there's all this hate for the prequels. And I'm not a fan of the prequels, but I appreciate that like kids going into it, they love it. I love all those. I love all those, but.

People who grew up watching it, it's like they got to see the Star Wars universe through kids eyes, you know? Yeah. And we were the same way. Honestly, I was so jaded that I've never liked return to the Jedi because I fucking hated the Ewoks. Yeah.

I've never liked it to me, no offense, because it's beloved franchise for you. To me, that's eight movie franchise. And there's like two good like to me, no offense, cause we beloved franchise for you. To me, that's eight movie franchise. And there's like two good movies to me, you know, like two like amazing movies, Star Wars, you hope, and then Empire Strikes Back. Great, but there is something in Star Wars that Matt pointed out to me.

They came up again on Twitter today. Oh God, what was it? He ruined Darth Vader for me. Is it the, it's because when he first goes up to me, Leah, very first scene when he walks in and they just left it in, you can watch the edit and think you could have cut just like four frames and gotten rid of this, but Darth Vader walks up and he's all imposing

and then he just stops and goes from, and he's like hands on his hips like this. He's like, does this total like hunch like that? It just, it kills it for me. I feel like David Proust didn't understand the character at all. Oh, they say that he didn't. He was like doing the, you know, accent and the lines. And they were just like, this is awful.

Like people on set for that movie were probably just like, this is dog shit. Oh, right, right. And problem there. You can easily cut that off. The last time I watched episode four, I was just like, goddamn it Bernie. Well, like, you, you're, yeah,

because I was just like looking for it. It's not me, it's Harlem. Harlem Roondit for me. I just had to pass it along. Also originally, I was just like, goddamn it Bernie. Well, like, you're, yeah, because I was just like looking for it. It's not me, it's Harlem. Harlem Roondit for me. I just had to pass it along. Also originally, I feel like they fixed it in the year since, but like Darth Vader's eye holes were red. You could see through them. And you could see, yeah, I was so, that was cool.

I looked up. I didn't, like, you could see a man in there. In the tie scene, you can see it pretty clearly, but again, this is home video HD. Yeah. You would never have been able to see those details I never understood what I didn't tie is the is that gonna be him breathing this is re-breather Yeah, but why all why how can he do it if he's talking they don't time it for when he's not talking He's always like talking and he's going At the same time be the machine that's operating I don't know

I'm not because it's a movie if I had to guess mean, if I'm taking the stab at the dark here. Oh, yeah, talking about Star Wars. Space man movie. I bought this jacket at a military surplus store and then I bought patches at a convention and then I ironed them on and then re-enforced them. You know, nice. Free product. Good job. How'd you reinforce me? Like, do you get up the needle and dread? This is... I'm good.

Okay. Ah! Here we go. Not nice. Oh my god. Ah! You did that. A craftsman's shirt. There we go. Not nice. Oh my god. Oh my god. You did that. A craftsman. Show the camera. Show the camera.

I impressed. The one with the red light, dude. How long have you been doing this? Yeah, look at that. Wow, Blaine. No. Listen, I don't do this shit that often. That's impressive.

No, I'm actually cheering. So the camera. After Game of Thrones, I was there just like, and I didn't know how to use a thimble. So I was just like prick it myself. Is know how to use a thimble, so I was just like prickin' myself from the top. Is it hard to sew with such big biceps? Just like, you have to be so small movements. I did break a needle, but.

Nice, yeah, it was fun. I'm not gonna do cosplay or anything like that. I would pay money to watch Blaine Threbin needle with Threbin. That would feel like, that would be fucking dying. Bleh. I was just like, fucking god. Like a whole treasure for two, like a delicate thing.

Three of them associated with Blaine at all. I had to get a, I had this like micro, oh god, what's it called? Magnifying glass with the light in it because it's very getting into model painting. Well, you have thick glasses too, if I may. I mean, we've seen you in the glasses on camera before. Gives your eyesight terrible.

You have like this. You have those glasses, I say, like when he wears them, you can see the back. It's like, like, he's got like fourth dimension glasses. But Blaze's white tank top doesn't make me think about this. Could anybody else play Wolverine or Iron Man in the future? At this point, do you think?

I mean, we're gonna have to reach that point. You think so? Someone's gonna do it. Multiverse. Someone else will come in and play. You don't think Hugh Jackman will come in and play? I doubt it, and it's gotta be, in my opinion, I feel like it's gotta be a no name.

The Batman casting is just like further proof because the people actors are gonna bring all these pre-existing the people actors are gonna bring all these pre-existing emotions and people are gonna freak out about them. I'm throwing with Robert Pattinson. Not a no name, but person who's not well known in acting circles should be considered

for the role of Wolverine. Jeremy Dooley. Oh yeah. Yeah, Jeremy Dooley is, he's got the same build and stature of Wolverine from the comics. And I think you gotta go more faithful to the comics, you know, because I think Jackman's like six, two, and what the fuck

with that guy, dude? It is crazy though. It does show how hard it is to obtain the ideal male form because it took like Jackman 10 years. Like you look at the first Wolverine. It took multiple movies, yeah. It took a long time for him to get to that level of like, what's the one where he's in the hotel room

and he just looks, yeah, he looks fucking ridiculous. I think he said that he dehydrates himself, right? Before he feels totally vascular. He's trying every goddamn vein in his body. And then as soon as they're con cut, he's just like, they they're like you know, I think like the dude's just on the brink of death because he's just so Yeah, no water like zero water for like a day or two right? Oh, yeah, he's just like I said Well, when we were oh shit look at the difference whoo

Yeah, he pissed this slime. I I hate to say it. I'm probably more jacked than original Wolverine, but I don't think I can ever get. Why do you hate to say it? Because it makes me sound like a do-go-go-go-go. Blaine, look at all that water you're drinking. There's your problem. Oh, don't drink that. You'll look like a Wolverine.

Sorry. Blaine, you are easily put that back up again. You are easily more in shape than the original Wolverine. Easily. Yeah. But that's on the right. That's like, I don't know how.

I don't know how. Look at the bicep vein, like I have that, but I don't have it going up my fucking shoulder into my neck and then down my forearm, like holy shit. Did they punch that stuff up, do you think, with CG? Is that like a thing they do? I mean, they did for like 300.

Oh, did they? Yeah, a lot of the things. I always assumed that they kind of punched him up a little bit in Guardians too. Like there's only the one shot where Chris Pratt is shirtless. But he's fucking, I mean, what is life? Instagram, if you, if you modify structure on the photo, it kind of like beef supple the edges. I wonder if they do stuff like that. I don't know about that. Wait, what does structure do? I've always mistaken that for sharpen. It's kind of similar to sharpen, but

it kind of like, if you have bad skin, it like extra brings that out. I don't know what it actually does. Yeah, it's like a contrast. All like slight differences in tone, I think it like makes the difference bigger. Okay. From what I can see.

How long you've been working out, Gav? It's one year. Welcome to the Red Bull for a bit. Who do you think is's been to the gym less than their life? You, Gus, or you, Gavin? Well, how can you go less than none? You've never been to a gym?

Yeah, not really. Well, I went to places that had gyms, but I would do other stuff that, like run on the treadmill or do that steering machine. No, like, play tennis or something. Oh, I got you. Okay. I think I'm in the steamboat. But really? Yeah. Like never like you ever bench pressed. No. Really? Bench press. Do you ever bench press like a bar or dumbbells? No. Huh. What about pushup? You

have to have done pushup. Like in school. Right. Like in school. Like. Yeah. It doesn't involve equipment. Yeah. Interesting. I said curl, like just, like I picked up an Xbox control. I got some chicken wings. Really, you're never. That's interesting. That's fascinating to me. Okay. How do you think you achieve this peak male body?

I feel like I used to have a quite natural workout because I used to just lift fruit and vegetable day in a supermarket. All right, and now sometimes I'd stack like three if-cows of bananas. And I was pretty heavy.

I had to move, I built a garden for Ashley, and I just had to move like bag after a bag of fucking dirt. If you see that or like have somebody deliver a big, I'd go all the dirt, and then where you'll barrel it to where we need it. So I just went to home, but probably paid a little bit more, but bought them in individual bags, like 28 cubic feet of dirt. I feel like that's what you were doing

when you let us film in your pool. Like we were like filming downfall into your pool and slow-mo. In beauty? No, this is like recently though, you were like moving shit around like bags and bags of her. Yeah, that's mulch. You got a mulch and it's just, you gotta get this mulch.

That was fun. Yeah, it was fun that we were both working, but in different ways. Yeah, I love that back here. That was a good back here. It was great. Good pool. Yeah Yeah, I was gonna say in regards to RTX Doing it. I'm doing a one-on-one sit down with Phil DeFranco, which is gonna be awesome I'm really really looking forward to that. So it's it'll be a fun conversation guy respect a lot one-on-one One-on-one, so that means you won't forget to announce him

I mean, well, this indeed we won't forget to announce him. I mean, this is dude. We don't have to bring that up every time. I'm sure that will come up during this thing as well. I'm sure it will. It was a bad game. It's so fun. I fucked up a VidCon and forgot to introduce Phil. And it was a Sunday.

Everyone thought I was a bit and I was so mortified that I couldn't play it off. Like I was just, we were all like sat around the table ready to play MDB and then buddy's like, all right, the rules of MDB and we were just like sat around the table ready to play mdb and then buddies like all right the rules of mdb And we were just to look at each other like nobody said anything You're doing a bit right we don't ruin the bit and eventually we're just like what about I hope we pull I hope this footage of that and we pull it for use of that one-on-one It really is embarrassing.

It is just like, I don't think I read the video. He handled it very well. I think anything that I thought was, oh, dude, I normally don't use the word cringe, because I associate with myself like if something is embarrassing because I always find embarrassment

to be the easiest emotion to recall. Like if I got really embarrassed by something and I think about the moment, I can feel the same embarrassment. It's most of vivid feeling, yeah. Right, and other emotional, probably because it's like the most invented in your own head. Embarrassment is like not a real emotion.

Like monkeys don't get embarrassed, right? But they can be happier, they can be sad. They can. Can they be embarrassed? I mean, there's that one with the suicidal thing. Where the chimp starts like beating his chest and then he like falls over and then he like runs away and hides behind his mom.

No, all right. So, yeah, that is a cute show. But there was something they came up that was just like, a very rarely used the word cringe in regards to anybody else because I hate that. I hate that like, that cringe criticism that people use because it became like this default for a while. So you're like, now the default criticism is rushed. I keep hearing rush, oh, it's too rushed. And it's like, what for a while. So you've like now the default criticism is rushed.

I keep hearing rushed, it was too rushed. And it's like, what the fuck does that mean? It's like, it's like, you know, it's like just this general catch all that people use for when they don't like to be scotten. But I had this thing in association with the people who were all saying rushed. The guy that created the petition

to remake Game of Thrones season eight. And now 800,000 people have signed up for it totally irrelevant because 19.5 million people or whatever watched the finale right but That's the kind of thing that the press reports on like oh 800,000 people have signed this petition and then everyone who's associated with the show Has to read these fucking headlines about this petition. How many of them voted? Exactly as associated with the show, has to read these fucking headlines about this petition that is devoted. Exactly. The utterly, utterly meaningless, there's no impact. It's just the name of the campaign. Yes.

Remake Game of Thrones season eight with competent writers. Wow. What a, what a fuck you. So he posted, there's a subreddit called Free Folk, which is like the alternative subreddit for both Game of Thrones and a song of ice and fire. And the free folk are the people who I guess have hated the show all along,

or I'm not sure what it is. They all, there's all different groups of hate that show for different reasons. But this guy was on there saying, I'm starting to feel bad. That was his thing. I can read you the post. It's compare phrase in here,

but he was like, I'm starting to feel bad. And essentially- He couldn't write it. Is that saying that he would write it better? Well, he was saying that like, now cast members are starting to come out and say that they're very upset about the petition. It's very disrespectful to a group of artists

that worked on this thing that people enjoyed for a decade, you know, and it's horrible. It's like, and I feel bad. And it was like, I was like, what dude? What did you expect? Yeah, what do you think's gonna happen? Like, he's even doing this thing where it's like, look, and I can prove it to me that I made it.

And he's holding little post-note with his username and all that stuff. And it's like, you, and I can prove it to me that I made it, and he's holding little post note with his username and all that stuff. And it's like, you're just trying to call all this karma or whatever you want to call it or noteworthy. On the backs of other people in this criticism. So it's like, yeah, you're like them now. You're in the public eye and you're gonna catch it for this. And then he made this post, it was a little like two down too,

where somebody's saying, no man, don't worry about it. It goes, this is really completely unaware, self unaware, this guy wrote, oh don't worry man, anytime you do something big, there's gonna be criticism. Just shrug it off. It's like, dude, you guys, this is literally, literally, what is it?

I gotta read this guy's post. Hold on a second, I gotta read the post, I saved it. Let me see if I can post it up. I'll just read you directly what he wrote in response to that. And I was just like, hold on. It's saved. Here we go. I'll be there in two seconds. How are you doing, Gus? I'm good. You're important to the IRS. I got I got I got something I'm going to talk. Well, he looks at up. I don't know if you guys care. You're the man now dog calm. Yeah, what's it? Indeed. It's gone. Ex-spired.

No. I think what they said they had a posting on their website that said they suffered a catastrophic failure and it's gone. So like they said, if you want to see it to go to archive.org. Do you want to just rebuild it from that? This says we're working on restoring an archive. There it is. I'm doing maintenance and update.

No. The man now dog. That was like my high school sense of humor. It was like one of the creative IIT names. It's like one of the first like, yeah, memes I now, dog. That was like my high school sense of humor. It was like one of the creative RIT names. One of the first like, yeah, memes I can think of. Yeah, it was usually just like an image in a looping sound. That's like how I like mose-daked all over the screen

or a gift found out about like John Claude Van Damme. They always did like awesome John Claude gift videos. It's sad to see that it's gone. Anyway, that was just a quick thing. You got it? Yeah. Okay. He, I'll read you, it's gone. Anyway, that's just a quick thing. You got it? Yeah. Okay.

He already just paraphrased his pose. A tradix pointing. I'm feeling bad. I'm the author of the petition. Here's proof from a few days ago, link to something. I have been keeping up with a number of the articles about this petition. The people of our free folk have been great.

Most of the comments in the petition have been supportive of me, but lately I have seen more and more articles about the actors or other writers. Steaming King, for example, you're just calling out myself and the signers in a very negative light. Oh no. He goes on to say, I obviously love the characters and several the actors,

not about that, I try to explain to them in an update that I didn't blame the cast or the film crew or the other hands that worked on the show, just the writers. So he might have updated the title to call out the writers specifically. That might have been a maybe date. But so few of these people seem to have seen my update.

The journalists do what they do best and cherry pick the most controversial parts. And that's all the cast. Oh my god. Oh my god. And then this was the part that I really drove me out. This is like three or four comments down at this point. Guy wrote, there's always going to be people who criticize. Just know that we, the free folks, support you.

It's like, completely unaware. That's what they're saying. He responds, thank you. I'm 30 years old, and this is gonna sound super childish, but I wouldn't want these people, meaning the cast members, to refuse my friendship were offered due to this petition. It's like, it's like what level of, that's like, delusional a little bit, right?

It's just like, first of all, one thing you got to accept if you're gonna fall into the criticism path is it's very easy on social media to anonymously criticize things. But you gotta be very measured about that because once you go down that path, you're kind of, you are cutting yourself off from stuff.

Like, there's been people who were gonna come and be a guest on the show and it's like, I can't be on the show because I openly talk negatively about something they worked on before I should be an asshole sitting there. One that you should be aware of, it doesn't matter who you focus on. If you criticize, especially in a huge,

like, really ostentatious way like this petition is, if you criticize something that people worked on for a decade, they're gonna fucking despise you. They really are. They really are. And you like do this pile on thing. And especially if you're the focus of it, and you're the person who started the pile on,

yeah, they're just, they're gonna hate you. And you gotta fucking own it and that's it. And don't feel sad about it or that you lost a French. He's not gonna be able to go get coffee with a million of Clark in the Clark. I guess I said. Ah! Anyway, what was that? Is that icky?

What is that? Just that whole mindset. It's a bit icky. It's a little icky. It's just like. It's just a bit tidal, man. It's just the, it's delusions of grandeur, right? It's like, but I get it on some way because, dude,

you made a thing and 750,000 people signed up for it. It's almost 1.5 million now. Is it really? Yeah. Okay. So it's like 1.5 million people. That's fucking nuts, dude. And if somebody has-

What? Four currently. I don't know anything about this person. What do they want? Missed my watch begins. Do you want to- Excuse me, you made, dude, they're very clear about it. They actually want them to go back to luck and reshoot it.

No, they really want to make the point. Yeah, that's right. Has there ever been a time where they've- people are like, you know what? They're very clear about it. They actually want them to all go back to luck and reshoot it. No, they really want to make the point. Has there ever been a time where they've, people are like, you know what, guess what, we've done it. Sonic. Sonic. I guess we're only now just like allowing that behavior with that kind of thing.

Here's the thing though. Yeah, that was so, I think I know where you're going to go with this. Do you think that the people who were very upset about the original Sonic look are now gonna be like, oh, thank God, they fixed it. I'm gonna go see the movie be happy now. No, no.

And even with them engaging and saying, hey, you guys have raised a concern. We're gonna address this and we're gonna deal with it. There's now people like, they put that out there and it'll fake us out. Like now it's like there's this conspiracy that they released footage of a bad design so that people would get upset.

Or the people who are now upset that animators and people working on the movie are gonna have to work extra to fix it. Yeah, they are. Yeah, right. Really, really, actually. It's like, well, you wanted them to change it and fix it. It's like, we have, but don't make them work overtime.

Don't make them work harder on this. Like, what the hell, brother, the movie be postponed? No, no, there's no solution. Don't make them work overtime. Don't make them work harder on this. Like, what the hell? Rather than the movie be postponed. No, no, there's no solution. God, we're such whiny babies. Luckily Game of Thrones got to 19 point whatever, million viewers for the finale. Because that, when people go back and look at it,

they'll go like, we gotta make more of these things, which is great. That's what we want. One thing I worry about being so entrenched in internet geek, whatever culture, is that we turn on things so quickly. That's like, eventually people are like, why don't we make anything for this audience? It's like, let's play Valve and said, like, we weren't make off live three.

Why, like, we can't make a game that everyone would like. We weren't make it. Exactly. And that's terrible, right? It's terrible that's come to that because they would get so much backlash, no matter what they made. Yeah, look at George Lucas, he's like, okay, you're good, doesn't he?

Or yeah, even the Star Wars stuff, like they canceled a lot of the other solo project, not Han Solo, but the standalone project, and they kind of delayed some of these other movies, and why would they continue making stuff for people just to actively hate it? I've always said, if you looked back in time, you were a historian,

and you just looked at comments and things, you would assume Star Wars was one of the most hated movie franchise in history and you wonder why the fuck The key thing in movies everybody hated every every every single one of these fucking movies is your favorite Star Wars moment in a main Star Wars movie Yeah, yeah, I don't really I think of anything outside of it. I think the Veda scene in Rogue One is the best moment in Star Wars. It's great. It always seems pretty good. It's great. I don't know. There's little moments that I really love. They love all the space battles, dude.

I think my favorite is in Jedi when it's that doling shot where Luke and Vader are fighting. And this is like Luke is getting really pissed off. And they play an impure theme. And they had like rotoscope, the lightsaber through the grates like the little metal holes it's such a good second scene oh it's so cool yeah I mean I like the Rogue One beta scene but it's only cool because of because you know who that is from the other movies so it's not like standalone great I just think it's just an amazing and just think hours after that he did the front. Like, he can catch up to lay it that morning.

Dunderclip in the movie, doesn't really move me. And he's like, I'm so upset you made me do this. Do we need to be? I want to be friends with David Pras. I don't think you do. What time was it when in that scene? Was that like 3 a.m. for them? It's like you asked what's the time and space?

Yeah, Ben over this. It's like, I had, they just had breakfast, do you think? It's interesting. What's your favorite star of our moment of all time? Is it the Vader, that Vader dolly, and that's it? It'd be that. And then an episode four when Haan and Chewie chase after the stormtroopers after they open the blast door and the stormtroopers start running away.

Yeah. Runs in the room and he sees them all. He turns around and then there's a shot where they're like open or close the blast doors Close the blast doors and then you see it's the same shot of Hawn and Chewie running away And then it's the troopers behind him and then music is so fucking good and then they come to the blast doors and they're like open the Blast or so I laugh every time I love everything and a new hope where they're in the Death Star where they've gotten off the Falcon and they're all like sneaking around the trash compactor scene when Ben Kenobi goes around the back of that pilot turn off the tractor beam. Yeah, I fucking love that scene Those dopey stormtroopers on there talking about whatever you're seeing

I Love that stuff. I love it Also probably though my favorite moment, which is a really weird moment to pick from Star Wars was an Empire Strikes Back. When Yoda, he was like starts off super goofier whenever when he tells him how difficult the training is gonna be and Luke goes, I wanna learn I'm not afraid. And then fucking Yoda goes through this shift, he goes, you will be.

And it was like even to this day, I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna go back and look at it now. And it's clearly a puppet, but as a kid, I was like even to this day, I'm like, ugh! I mean, I go back and look at it now and it's clearly a puppet, but as a kid, I was like fucking freaked out by that. It was such a tonal shift. And Yoda got scary in that moment, you know? And he's kind of a scary dude. He's like a little monster.

He's like a little monster. A little monster who can use magic. Yeah, exactly. He's a little lazy. What was this race? Yoda, I forget. You know, for the other ones, the. Yeah, it'll, she's an episode one.

I don't, I think you can see them in the extended universe, but there's not a lot of Yoda's races. There's, isn't there one in one of the prequels? Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's the other Jedi. It's Yoda with a wig. Is there a full K version of Star Wars out? Can you watch it?

Do they have a scanner in 4K? Or is the HD the best thing? I'm pretty careful about what they put out there. It's hard to get the original cuts now, right? If the, what do they call it? Yeah, without special edition? Yeah, I feel like I have the latest special edition, which is the one that has the Tatooine cover.

I feel like if they're gonna do another release, it would be 4K restoration, and I bet you, if they can work it out with Fox, they would just do the theatrical release. On Undo of Luke's his reviews. I bet it would do. That's so really well, I think. The species, from what I'm reading here,

does not have a name, that they kept it shrouded in secrecy. Really? Mm-hmm. There's two misconceptions I had about Star Wars growing up, Hunter had many, but two misconceptions I had about Star Wars growing up. Hunter had many, but two that I remember, was I thought Yoda was just a 900 year old human.

I thought that's what happened to human. I'm in the human. You know, because he had the cane and he thought, maybe that's why they're keeping it a mystery. And he had hair coming out of his ears and I just thought, oh, he's a human. That's what just humans look like. They go 900 years old.

And the other one I thought was that, I thought lightsabers were the physical manifestation of the force and that's why only Jen I can use them. And I was like, one of the things, it's like I just thought that both of those things were fact. And it turns out that physical manifestations are metaclorians instead.

Which is close, but not quite the same thing. No, no, no, no. Cabricrystals. It's just that you have a red metaclorian or a green metaclorian or maybe a blue metaclorian. I use it on Hoth. I was very confused when Han Solo uses the lightsaber

on the taunt on in Hoth. I was like, what? I was like, that can't, it's a hot jet eye. That's what I went. It's like, similarly that I had, in that scene, because it's already like really blue and like, you know, the wind and stuff like that.

It's like on ice planet. I thought that Han had his own white lightsaber. And I was like, wow, Han got lightsaber. So were you young enough to see Empire like where the big twist got protected for you? On stage, I can't recall. I feel like when was Tommy Boy released? I know it's stupid, but like that was one of my favorite

comedy movies when I was a kid and Empire at home Yeah, I think since like I feel like your memories start around four or five and I've always known that Vader was Luke's dad Spoiler alert because Tommy boy He's doing the fan thing It came like the default like the good way br Bruce Wills was a ghost became the new spoiler for a long time.

Yeah. What was it? So it was. Oh God. And don't hard. He said I heard. I saw a glass. I watched glass in a plane.

I loved it. And I was a big critic of Unbreakable. Everyone thought Unbreakable was amazing thing. And I like split. I glass might be my favorite. And that's it. I've never seen it. I everyone who saw it was like,

blah, blah, blah. All the, you know, all the people who loved them breakable. To me, it's very similar and tone, tone, tone, breakable, or pacing at least. I think people hated them breakable at first too. I think people liked unbreakable later. Really? Okay.

I might be in that camp now. I'm gonna go back and watch unbreakable because I enjoyed glass so much. Um, I wanted to such that something. I remember, so we were talking about Star Wars quite a bit there. Did you see that thing about when Galaxy's Edge opens that they're gonna restrict the amount of time people could be in it? That people only be in there for four hours? What? Yeah. Man, I'm so excited to go that park the more here about it, the less excited I'm getting. They said they're

gonna have storm troopers. Like everyone's gonna get a wrist band that shows like what time you went in, you get four hours and they'll have storm troopers patrolling, checking wristbands. And once you're four hours, they're up, you gotta leave. That's actually kind of cool. If they're gonna do it away, that's the thing. I totally flipped on that.

But I do hate that. People will hang out to get kicked up by the storm troopers. Yeah, I will. They're gonna take up all that time. I was really excited to go and then they did this thing where they're like, yeah, not the whole park is gonna be released. So then I'm just like, they did this thing where they're like, yeah, not the whole park is gonna be released. So then I'm just like,

well, I'm gonna wait until like 2020 to go to, so that they have all the rides open. Oh, when is it opening? I mean, no. I mean, I think it's either opening or opening in June or something like that. The LA one is. It's the end of the month, the end of May.

Okay, so that's opening like next week. Right. Yeah. But they have a rider too that are not going to be open. And then the Disney World one is going to open. And then they're going to open the ride in LA. And then they're going to open the other ride in a Disney World location or Orlando. Yeah. So they're like kind of like spacing it out.

So you got your Orlando one opens at the end of August. Yeah. And I'm just going to like wait until all the crowds die down, the whole park is open. Then I'm going to go and I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna start worse. To get on, I'm like so out of star wars. Like I didn't even think about the fact that the last movie in the movie franchise I've been watching my entire life is coming out this year, right?

Yeah. And then Nine's coming out this year. It's just like, it's like so low impact for me now. I'm a Marvel guy. Now, I grew up reading the comics. I was considering myself to be a Star Wars kid. It just, I think they just nailed the Marvel stuff so well that I just like, that's, that's it.

We're at a tipping point. We'll see how, where it goes from here with the Marvel stuff. I'm okay though. I'm like, you know, the whole endings thing is interesting because you talked about it's hard to end TV series. And one thing we always did with Red vs Blue that we talked about over the years was we wrote endings like we had stories. And you watched the first five seasons and that has an ending and then that's a bad idea if you're making a series And it's gonna continue because then people like well, I've already seen the ending of this first story

And it's like you can't really compare it to anything else that has sequels But are still part of the same series But we have like I wrote three different endings season five then, then season six to eight, and then nine and ten. Miles wrote five had a lot of endings. What's that? That technically season five had a lot of endings. And then Miles wrote the ending of season 13. We're done 14 now. We're in the new series.

I'm gonna say how long it's gonna be. But that'll have a definitive ending too. And it gives people a jumping off point. I felt like it also gave people a jumping on point. Like if they wanted to get involved, they could start a new story. And then over time, people have said, they're like, where should I start on RVB?

It's like something like, you have to start at the beginning. It's like, don't know. No, it's like a bunch of random jokes and everything started season six. That's where the storyline begins. Everyone has different opinions of that. But it's like, I think, and they said this in Avengers,

it's like, what do they say, part of the journey is the end. I've always said, good stories have an ending. That's part of the thing. You have to, I don't know how you write without ending in mind. You know, and I was very influenced, I think, by lost, in particular. I just felt like they didn't have an ending in mind, or they didn't, and the audience got ahead of them. Treasure our Martin talked about this recently.

The audience gets ahead of you, and then your inclination is, oh shit, they figured out my ending. I got to change it. You really don out my ending, I gotta change it. You really don't, you're not gonna have to change it. Just tell your story, you know. They're saying that Spider-Man's supposed to be the end of Phase Three. I feel like they're gonna treat it like an epilogue

and you're gonna find out what more happens after the snap, but yeah, I don't know what's gonna happen beyond that. Like, what can they even touch? I don't know, multiverse. Secret worst. Yeah. They do that.

Yeah. I still can't believe that Iron Man came out before Avatar. This 10, 11 years ago now, what, oh, eight? Yeah. Is it because you think that Iron Man's a newer movie? Yeah, it seems, like Avatar to me seems like so long ago. Yeah. And I guess because Iron Man as kept showing up over time.

I'm excited about the new avatars. Yeah. Three more. Yeah, I'm excited about it. I don't look at that. Get why that's become so like me worthy that like people are shooting on Avatar. Like I know that the joke is that they keep pushing release and adding more to the series or whatever,

but like I fucking loved avatars. I fucking be excited to see the next one. Dude, don't, don't pet against James Cameron. I said that when Alito was coming out. Yeah, so he was like, oh, that's gonna be a $250 million bomb. It's like, not to find time. Dude, do you say about him every time that guy makes a movie?

Every time. Do we learn nothing from Titanic? It's like, it's like, it's all like, when we were team out. That car was gonna be huge flop, biggest movie ever. And when he was making aliens, I think all the, because the crew hadn't seen,

the British crew hadn't seen Terminator. So they were just shitting on this, like whatever American dude coming over, it was like one of the best movies ever. Right, from Ridley Scott to now, then this action movie, that's the way they were just giving him shit and like refusing to work and stuff.

People just mistaking him constantly for Michael Bay, but he's just really fucking good. He's just like, Yep. What if they're like the same guy, but one's evil and one's a good version? Which is which James Cameron I

Remember watching four-year-old virgin and in that movie Steve Kura holds up an Iron Man and I remember Not having any idea what that was right Right, I remember being in a different world. We live in now. I never had a bad environment I read all the comics and everything and they were making Iron Man movie. I was like, oh my guys, you're great. And everyone's like, what the fuck is Iron Man? I was like, oh, I was like, I feel like I feel like we're like a nerd exposure. I feel like he holds up. He's like, this is Iron Man. I feel like they make fun of the fact that no one really knows. Well, the people outside of comics don't know Iron Man. And I did you know from

the Marvel universe, did you know Wolverine, the X-Men? The X-Men? Because of the cartoons on side of it. I feel like I knew everybody because of the cartoons. I had Iron Man and War Machine Did you know from the Marvel universe, did you know Wolverine? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men?

The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men?

The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men? The X-Men?. That makes sense. I had heard of all the X-Men that were in the cartoon and Spider-Man, Superman and Hove, but that's not a model. Does that, who is the Captain Britain guy?

You need Jack or something? Is it Union Jack, is that they make hair? Hey Winston Churchill. Never. Well then there's also the Alpha Flight, there's the Guardian, who's like the Canadian superhero. Yeah. Yeah.

I like that. I like that every country has their own most surreals. Did you speak to Spider-Man? Did you watch the button at the end of the credits for Into the Spider-Verse? Yeah, I don't remember. I was fucking cracking up. The first time I watched that.

What was it? It's where it's in the 60s. The 60 Spider-Man? Oh, that one. Yeah, I did see that. Jesus. The whole movie is so fucking funny, but then that button,

it was just a perfect way to end that movie. And that's Oscar Isaac's voice, and I fucking like, Oscar Isaac could do no wrong, except for apocalypse, but he was in so much makeup, he didn't recognize him, so he gets to pass.

But Oscar Isaac's so fucking cool. X machin' is fucking great. That's so good. That's, it's just for his performance, really, more than anything else. And he's not the main character, not even like, he stills a show. He does steal the show, man, from General Hux. He's, more than anything else. And he's not the main character, not even like, he stills a show.

He does steal the show, man. From General Hux. He's, he's really great. Plus that fucking house. I want it. That's so cool. The built-in of the rocks, there's no way that'd be an architectural nightmare.

I've told you the story about how I ruined X-Mock and add South by Southwest, right? For what, for the audience? I was in line and I had been seeing so many movies and I was up partying so much that I was just like, wasn't in the right headspace and I was about to see Turbo Kid, which is a dope fucking movie.

And someone was like, Hey, what have you seen so far? And I was like, oh, this, this, and this, oh man, I just saw X-Mock in the last night. It is crazy. He's like, yeah, I saw it too. And I was like, can you believe that at the end that the thing happened?

And then I just hear like, oh, yeah, it's tough. It's tough to get all around me. And I was like, what, what? Oh, fuck. It just ruined it. Going back to Dave Prous, I know we've talked about this before, but I think it's in keeping with this boiler conversation.

David Prous gave away the big reveal for Empire, like a year and a half. It's printed in newspapers. He will just so told a convention. People is like, yeah, I got the script. You'll be very excited for this next installment of the series. It's when I revealed my character, Darth Vader,

is Luke Skywalker's father. And it's like printed and it's spread further. It just wasn't that world. And notice that. Yeah, yeah. You could look it up. I've seen scans of that. I'm actually amazed at more stuff.

Doesn't leak, but then again, there were leaks for Game of Thrones for the last three or four episodes where they were 100% right. Or even some of the episodes leaked was in season six or five, where the first half of the series was available online for pirates to download.

Ashley had the finale for Game of Thrones spoiled for her by Ruchie T's comments. She was going through comments and somebody, she was deleting, but you can't not read them when you're deleting them like that. And it's just like, man, what's wrong with people? You know, doing that stuff. There's no point in that at all. I try to avoid all that shit. That's a true spoiler. The things not out and there are people who go out and like try to find people that don't know it and are going to tell them about it. Seven got away from me. Seven seven someone spoiled it and are gonna tell them about it. Seven got waiting for me.

Seven, seven, someone who spoiled it and just a random, it was like a fucking video about how to do something to your shoe or something and then like, it was just like top comment was, Hansello, blah, blah, Kylo Ren, I was like, fuck! Yeah. Oh, I think it meant seven, the movie.

I thought you also meant seven. Yeah, I was really confused. I know it's seven the movie. I thought you also made seven. I know it's in the box now. I was really curious to see where that story was. Sorry, we've been talking about so much from always my brain. Yeah, the beginning of the story. I was like, how old was he? I just about picked her haze now to make a gift

in the end of seven. We're Brad Pitt opposite box Kyler and just. I have to quite suddenly. Oh, it was a lot of Kyler engine. I'm so happy. I'm so happy. I'm so happy. Quite suddenly. Yeah, that was, that's confusing. How much longer do we have on the confusing one? We started about 10 minutes.

Okay, great. Eight minutes. More or less. Hey, look, we're not gonna stop and talk about Game of Thrones. Did you see that we're not? So World of Warcraft classics coming out, they've released it for it.

So it's World of Warcraft, as it existed, like version 1.12 before I believe it's called and I believe beta testing's already started so some people are already starting to get into beta's to play it and Blizzard do you do that? So I hate to do really your sometimes I don't do that sometimes it depends on the game This one I probably would just because I've already played it like I know what I'd be getting into But see if these have as an insider program the only reason I've already played it. Like I know what I'd be getting into. But see if these have as an insider program, the only reason I want to do it is if you pay an hour a week, they give you rewards.

But the time you get to the 10th week, you get like badass sales and whole. Anyway. Well, Blizzard had to make an official post in the forums for World of Warcraft Classic, telling people, they listed a bunch of things saying, these are not bugs. Stop reporting these. Oh, this is just the way the game was. This is the way the game worked at the time. That's amazing.

It's like, I think, and we talked about this at Game Time last week, that people might not remember what they're in for. They might not remember how tough that game was, and unforgiving it was when it launched, and it's gonna be a fucking grind. I'm talking about it with Adam Ellis, uh, Adam Ellis, like, so they're not bringing any, any new mechanics. No, it's just as it was.

As it existed at that time. Yeah, I'm out for still in there, but you have to be like level 40. Chad's probably really excited about it. Yeah, I'm talking with both Chad, Adam Ellis hardcore vanilla wild player, like played, nervous his whole life for a few years,

was playing that game. Yeah, we're, it's interesting. Cause like, there's that and then, like, Halo, master of collections coming back out of the city. Yeah, we're interesting because like there's that and then like Halo, Master of Collections coming up back out of the scene. There's just something about like bringing back those nostalgic feels. Want to be clear?

I don't know anything. Don't know anything. Don't have any insight information. I just have a really strong feeling that we're going to see something for Halo Infinite at E3, which is like a week and a half, two weeks. We kind of should. I mean, they teased it last year. Right. We should see something. I'm hoping. Is anyone even at E3, which is like a week and a half, two weeks. We kind of should. I mean, they teased it last year.

Right. We should see something. I'm hoping. This is anyone even at E3. No, I literally got invited to stuff and I kept sending like declines of like, sorry, I'm just not going to be there this year. And they're like, it's in my way. Yeah. No one is going. Yeah. It's a lesson.

Less people going to E3. Which I think more developers are moving away from it. So it's becoming less of the press spectacle. Like did Sony announce a PlayStation 5 when I wasn't paying attention? No, they talked about hardware specs though. Without... Okay, he's not announcing a PlayStation 5.

Right, without directly announcing it, it was really weird. Like there's an article about the SSD version of the PS5 and they showed load times for it. Right. That's announcing a PS5. But no, like... Do you think it's about time they just cool it at PlayStation and go again?

No, it's books did. No, you like the fact that they still go. Yes, keep the fucking numbers on it. Yes, I tried that. So we tried that with RVB2 because we went in season one, two, three, four, five, and about, okay, we got a new thing now. We'll call it Reconstruction, Revelation, all that.

And that's like, I wish, yeah, it just confuses people. Just put the fucking numbers on it. I'm sure we're remembering it now. Like titles on a podcast video on YouTube. Oh, God. Jesus. Gasoline. It's hard to find without the numbers.

What is just the podcast? Well, don't we add the numbers after? Yeah, we add the numbers after a week. Could do. In the description. Stubborn. Whatever. There was another article I read that this man in China was arrested for giving dogs illegal names.

What? Like, cuss names or something? Cuss names. I was curious. Cuss names. The reason I looked it up is, what's an illegal name? Cat Hitler bush So he gave them he was naming dogs. He had two dogs

H obviously with with Chinese names the first one was Chengguan which is officials employed in urban areas to tackle low-level crime So we see like police, okay, he named one dog and the other was Ziguan Which is informal community workers such as traffic assistance. So basically he named his dogs like police officer and traffic cop and got arrested for that. And was he put in jail?

Like what was the length of his service? It is the rest of these crimes. He must spend 10 days in administrative detention center. What does China, what's the's off what does China call Taiwan China But they don't like it's not a region. I don't know. I see what's just China Ray Jay they don't they don't use whatever Taiwan uses for themselves right because Taiwan refers to themselves as the Republic of China So I think whenever like we deal diplomatically we have the United States deals diplomatically

They have to be careful about how they refer to the nation of Taiwan. Well, right. Like, wow, that side, I was amazing. Maybe, it's a complicated situation.

It's like there was a Chinese government official, like just off camera, you're like, sorry. Let me rephrase. Yeah man, that's a fucked up situation going on. What's still going on? They're about to, isn't it like the next few years, so it's going to be a completely segmented internet, right? They're going to have their own internet. I know Russia's working on that. Heading that way.

Well, they need, I mean, you heard the news about Huawei? Oh, yeah. Google revoked their Android license. Yeah, they actually just got it back for 90 days. It's been a 90-day reprieve on that. But Google revoked their Android license, their access to Google apps. And on top of that, US suppliers are gonna stop sending them parts. And then because of the way that the band is worded,

other international suppliers are also going to stop. Some other international suppliers will also stop sending Huawei parts. So there'll be a phone company who cannot get parts from outside of China and cannot use an operating system from outside of China. Do you really want them to have their own OS? It was not way worse. It's China.

I mean, if you revoke a license, they're like, okay, we'll stop using that. I mean, what are they going to give us yet? They're going to just going to use it. Yeah, I mean, they'll use it maybe internally, but I mean, they'll get blocked. Right. Or if we're talking about hardware, I mean, they'll have to develop it. They'll have to develop some stuff internally in China. Huawei devices normally don't use the Google ecosystem.

Do you think, many reasons? Was this in response to something? What's going on? There's a trade war escalated between China and the United States. Which is, there's some serious stuff going on with it too, where, I should say, serious. The situation in Iran is much more serious, I think. That's not a de-escalated. What? That's de-escalated a, I think. That's not a deescalated. What?

That's deescalated a bit, but yes. Has a deescalated? Okay. There's been a, I read an article, there was a shift, sudden shift in the programming for television and movies in China, where there's now like, it's very popular have anti-US media. So that's a bad shift. Remember I was telling you about that, that Chinese film I watched wandering Earth.

Yeah. There are no American characters in that film, but on the space station, the two of the main characters are a Chinese astronaut and his best friend who's a Russian cosmonaut. So it's like the Chinese and the Russians working together in space to try to save Earth. And I think there's no American character. You might see the Americans briefly in a montage,

like what they're doing in the United States. It did because as global cinema grows, you know, if you look over time at what were the evil characters, like Russians were the evil characters, like default in movies, and then anybody from the Middle East was the default for a while, it was totally fine. Brits were up there for a long time. Yeah, I think America will be, you know, as movies become more global, and you know, other markets get bigger and bigger,

it's gonna be like the default might be the US, you know. Corporation, I mean, we have some of that, you know? Usually anybody who's involved with a company of any kind in a movie is like, pure evil. I mean, let me read this to you real quick. This is from Asia Times. I don't know if that's a reputable organization.

It's just the first one that came up. The movie channel of China's state broadcaster China Central Television has reportedly pulled from its schedules not only all Hollywood productions, but also domestic films with scenes shot in the US. Observer see the move as CCTV falling in line with other state media after Beijing's ties with Washington Sourd further after the latest impasse in bilateral trade talks I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case.

I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case.

I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case.

I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. I'm not sure if that's the case. They have special screenings of anti-US invasion movie like whether fighting off an invasion by the US into China So it's their version of red dawn kind of yeah, we're like the you know dawn No, I think they would keep red. Yeah No red dawn was us Them defending. Oh, you see they're also the red army. Yeah, no, well ain't right. It's to work It's called red dawn because the red the Russians are the reds. Yeah, but they're also the reds. No, plain right. It's to work. It's called red dawn because the red, the Russians are the reds. Yeah, but they're also the reds. They're defending.

It works both ways. No, plain you're right. Yeah, it would be blue dawn. It would be blue dawn. Does this the dumbest argument we've ever had? You're both wearing red. No, you mean stop when you're wrong. This is one where you're wrong.

He's right. I'm totally fine. You just changed the whole premise of the title. It's really, you changed the whole premise. It still works though. One of the people, one of the belligerents is all is signified by red. It's not one of the belligerents. It's the get invaded by the red army. So if we invade, we're red, suddenly we invade China.

But why does it actually be about the invading army? Why gonna be about the defending army? I don't know. Why does it have to be done? You don't know. You're a fucking dickhead. All right, fine's they'll call it red dawn in China as well. That's the totally episode red dawn to question mark. No one knows what red dawn is that's listening to this. They made it. That's the reason the crimson's the earth. Hey, uh, so you watched

that that footage of black summer. Yeah. Oh yeah. Translated her the Korean lady. Yeah, it was great. Uh, having Esther there watching Black Summer because anytime the Korean woman talks, she's like, oh, she said this. She said that. Was I accurate in my description of that half-baked show? Yes. It's a lot of empty rooms and a lot of looking around. Oh, just exploration. I thought it was fine, but yeah, it was a weird approach. Yeah. It tricks you a little bit because the first episode in the suburban neighborhood is fucking amazing.

And it's like really cool and really different. It reminded me almost of the dawn of the dead remake from the early 2000s. Oh, the James Gun one. Yeah, James Gun. It's like it started like the neighborhood kind of thing. Yeah. And it's like the very beginning and people running out of their houses and the chaos that's happening. Yeah, man. Yeah, I know, yeah.

Exactly. The beginning for that doughnut of the dead and then the beginning of 28 weeks later are fucking crazy openings to movies. That one where what's the actor? He's from Transpawning, played begby and he's in 28 weeks later. I don't remember his name.

Weeks, it's a sequel. Yeah, right. The opening to 28 weeks later, it starts off kind of Weakster days. It's a sequel. Right. The opening to 28 weeks later, it starts off kind of like interesting because they're hold up in a house and they got all the windows supported. It completely goes off the rails like a minute or so in and it's just frantic. And by the time they get to the end of the opening sequence, you're just like breathless. It's fun.

It's great. It's great. I think it would be the next 28 months later. Have they not made 20 months? No, I thought 20 weeks later was good I love both of those movies the first one I can't remember the second one because I've seen it in so long the first one's like one of my favorite I miss it's a clear me which which one came first the walking the graphic novel or 28 days later because of the exact same premise for the opening Robert Carlaw robber Carlaw, that's him. That's him.

I want to see. Oh, the wife guy. Yeah. Yeah. There's a bond villain. I'm not using, we're seeing trains bonding too. I don't know. I think it was in full wanting as well.

How much would you pay an extra dollar a month to your Netflix subscription for it to just not auto play whatever they want and to have continue watching be the first line. Because I was trying to imagine it as if, is if every time you walked up to your DVD collection, they'd all been muddled around and one movie you've never seen was just playing on the TV in front of you. Because it's the equivalent of that. I keep that.

And it's like, I get it. It's important that they put new shows in front of you. Because it's like, oh, I've probably watched the show now that I've seen the first, you know, very loud 10 seconds play. But I would love it to not do that. I don't have the problems with the Netflix UI that everyone else has. I hate it. Yeah. A lot of people hate it and they hate a hate Hulu to 28 days later.

Came out in 2002. The first issue of walking dead was 2003. I have big UI problems right now, but that's publishing too. So did they see it before they did. So it's amazing how similar the openings are. Guy in the hospital wakes up like a month later. And there's a full on apocalypse, but he was somehow not killed. Yeah. While he was in a coma. Yeah, they like blocked the door. And somehow he was still hooked up to an idea alive. They show, I think they show it in walking dead. They show like

somebody blocking the door and then leaving. I don't know. They show it in 20 days later. No, they don't just wait. He just wakes up. You know what parents were there. This is dick at one point. But because they make the note like don't wake up. Because it's horrible. Fuck that movie's chilling. It's just 20 days later.

It's pretty fucking dope. That's seen the church with it. You first see them and it's like. Yeah. But that's the thing about black Summer is a group of Romero, Zombie fan and it's like individually, Zombie not a big deal, like Walking Dead. It's like, yeah, it's bad news,

but just pay attention, you'll be okay. Eight of them, you got a fucking problem. 20 days later, one of them, you got a serious fucking problem. That's a Black Summer. Literally, there's two zombies that for two fucking episodes, trap five people. Yeah, like a five people. I have not heard of. Is this a show? It's on Netflix. It's on Netflix. Black summer. It's a you recommend. I love zombies. If you love zombies,

give it a shot. It's eight episodes that are all about 30 minutes each. Oh God, I hate this is the worst recommendation ever. It's like, it's a much different per hours of my time. It's a much different pace. You'll figure it out probably in the first two episodes whether or not I want to watch it. I was one of the people that didn't like that superhero academy show. Oh really? You know, even though everyone is like,

you look like number one, the, the, Ricken. Yeah, and I was like, Rick and Tarlie. Yeah, that guy. Dick and Tarlie. Dick and Tarlie. Dick and Tarlie.

White guy was kind of a beard. Which one of the worst like body suits ever. So distracting. Anytime he was on camera, I was like, I can't get through this. He's like this. He's like in this ridiculous body suit. All right, let's wrap this up. Okay. Thanks for watching, everybody.
