We warned everyone.
These are a little different.
I just did not expect to be on camera.
It's a two-shot.
I didn't really.
I didn't expect it.
I was like, why am I that?
You told everyone that there's going to be a two-shot except Gavin.
Welcome to the RCT podcast.
I'm Gus.
I'm Gavin.
I'm Carrie.
Hi, Fred.
And Gus. As you can tell, we're in a slightly
different space. We warned everyone, but I guess you weren't here last week when we warned
everyone. I didn't even know it was there. I was wet to the old. This morning, I woke up
and I was like, did we tell Gavin that the podcast isn't in the same place anymore? And I
messaged Eric and I was like, hey, did you tell Gavin that to go to the old place? He's like,
no, I was like, oh, shit, I got a go to back to the old place? He's like, no, I was like, oh,
shit, I got a text in.
Oh, or alternative idea, don't text him.
I see what happens.
And that was gonna happen.
Yeah.
Well, you know what's funny is you and I think alike.
And I guess we think the same of Gavin
because I also messaged Eric this morning.
Do you?
I wish I probably told Gavin
that everyone's looking out for me.
It's so nice.
Yeah, well, you know. It's really funny.
We're, you know, as we've mentioned before,
we're kind of like in a transition period.
We're moving from the old space to a new space.
So this is a temporary spot we're in right now.
It's funny how many people just didn't get the notice
or haven't paid attention.
Because earlier, Chris Demarice was like,
hey, I'm going to go by the old space.
We're like, it's gone.
I think I just wrote that space go by by Chris.
And then he responded with, hmm.
Yeah.
Well, what?
Well, you didn't buy it.
Yeah, like, he's like, is this a prank?
What am I gonna do now?
Go anywhere else?
Go to the news base.
Yeah, he's having like AC issues at his place.
And so he's like, I guess I'll just work from stage five
all week.
And then Gus is like, got pennies for you today.
No, I mean, you know this move, we've all been talking about company wide for months now.
Hmm, it's happening.
Right.
And that there's been like multiple messages about there've been meetings.
God, there have been meetings.
You were in a meeting about this?
Dude, I've been so many fucking meetings.
When you start.
I hate him.
I hate him.
I know this is like the common
gripe everyone has, but I hate when there's a meeting that should have been an email.
That's what we mean. Yeah, it's like, do we really need to carve an hour out for this?
This is a three minute email. If that I always love when people do half hour meetings.
Because I'm like, you get it. Get it in and out. Get it done with. That's it. Even then.
Sometimes it's just ridiculous.
Can I complain about something else?
Yeah.
I work.
This Rice Krispie treats too good.
OK, there we go.
Look at this.
Why complain about it, though?
I went, so we're in this time space,
and they got snacks out there.
And I don't even want to Rice Krispie treats.
But this is so big it offended me here, Barbara.
You have it.
No.
Get it out of the hand.
It broke her hand.
It's so big. It just, if you're listening on audio, it actually broke her hand with the size of it. It's so big. If you're listening on audio, it actually broke her hand with the size
of it. I was never gonna cut to the wide shot for that. It's like the size of two rice
crispy treats. It looks like they hammered it. Yeah. They flattened it. And you've just
been conditioned by the regular size of the rice crispy treat. Yeah. It could be any size
you want, Gus. I like having broadcast right here because then if I accidentally miss a
Christmas tree
Yeah, also I guess I guess there's no one's been in this building for a long time
But I was I brought this soda over it was so cold
It hurt my hands to carry it to the set
Like I was having to go between my left and my right hand. I was like man this soda's way too cold
Like no one's open that fridge and like a year and a half.
Let's recap so far.
That's completely, that's complaining about the size of a rice crispy
tree.
The coke is too cold.
What's next on your list?
Mm-hmm.
Oh, he's got something.
It's not a frozen coke.
See if it was a frozen coke you would be okay.
All right.
But it's just, it's just a coke.
So, nope.
What?
Wait, oh. I just want to ask my, his baby hands,
but you go ahead.
Well, so like, opening a fridge up multiple times,
that is really big.
It's massive.
What is that like?
It should be two.
That's really an annoying five inch by five inch.
What would you say?
You guys know we live in America, right?
Yeah, so use meters like what?
No, I'm just saying like everything's bigger here.
Is this the standard in this country?
It is nice. I feel like it is better than it's thinner.
It is thinner. Maybe it's the same size.
Maybe you're right.
Moody did just hammer it out.
Do you know?
Are you sure somebody didn't sit on that?
Cut it in half and stack it and see what happens.
Are you can't you can't barber it in half?
It that looks like a ramen packet.
It does.
Yeah, that's not that's not a standard.
Put it in a kill.
This.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do it.
She's doing it.
That was a press.
She's tacked it up.
That was a really bad idea if you have veneers.
Yeah.
So sticky.
Yeah.
It's gonna pull off.
We would see.
Pull off my feet. In chat who is this DK Lensky says, sounds like
old man got show up today. Look, here's the thing, because I was actually in the
space earlier today. I took a coke from that fridge this morning. It's not that
coke. It was really cool. It's not that coke. Go grab a coke. I want to be on the podcast again,
so I don't want to give you shit. But it's not that cool. It. Go grab a coke. I want to be on the podcast again, so I don't want to give you shit.
But it's not that cold.
It was so, I was between when you took one and one gusted.
I was holding, I had a 10 a.m. breakfast coke.
I was holding two sodas in my left hand, and then the cup and the rice crispy treat
in my right hand.
And then I had to like swap them halfway back to put, get so soft.
What are you?
Over the last 43 years, it's been a real dramatic softening.
Well okay with the increased surface area of the race crispy tree you could have
used that as like a little tray. It could have. It's like a good coast-assize.
Yeah I also complain about one of the amenities here. Please. This fucking water it tastes like
ass. I never thought water could taste like ass. What could it have been in a bottle for two?
Does it have a date marked on it?
Best if used by ass.
15th of November 2020.
Yeah.
So if water has been here so long that it's expired.
And what it doesn't expire for like two years.
That dinosaur's drank that same water.
Why does water expire?
1 million years ago.
I mean, we put it in a bottle and it expired.
Maybe the plastic is just slowly seeped into the liquid.
Oh, is that what plastic tastes like?
I think it's just microplastics.
Obviously, COVID is a thing.
So I'm not going to be like, drink it.
But if you want to smell it.
Give me the cap.
Give me the cap.
I can't get COVID-19.
I was going to, I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to take a take a shot I'm gonna take a shot of
Plastic water. Yeah, but smell it smell what's in the bottle? All right, I'm gonna pour this right on my my dick
Okay, how cold is it? I got it all over me down. You just gonna be huffing the cap
Here this is an unopened one if you want to smell this one. Yeah, good. Oh, that tastes very bad
I'm gonna wait for that. This tastes really good. It does taste actually very bad.
It tastes like grape.
You did too.
I doubt the buck caught it.
Oh, wow.
Oh, it's like artificial grape.
It smells like chemicals.
It smells like, yeah, like, it smells wrong.
I feel like this is a long con.
Have you put this to my nose and then someone's going to spray it in my feet?
Yeah.
Even watching to me it's just, it smells like grape.
Right?
Like artificial grape. It smells like grape, which I normally would like. Oh, it does smell like grape. Right? Like artificial grape.
It smells like grape, which I normally would like.
No.
It's like grape perfume.
People like grape.
People don't like grape water.
They said that.
Get him out.
Get him out.
Just muffle like you're saying.
It's just on his own.
Just like nice.
As a person whose favorite artificial flavor is grape that was fucking disgusting.
Yeah. Well that's not great. Sure. But it is reminiscent of yeah. Are we gonna get sick, Nicholas?
We're safe, okay. No, I don't think. Which is funny because I just finished watching Aaron
Brockovich last night. I thought you were going back for more water. I was gonna like slap it out of your fucking hands.
Don't have the thing.
Why do we have boat will or anyway?
We also have the dispenser, don't we?
Yeah, we have the dispenser.
I think I have both of them.
It's earlier today, the reason that I had a 10 a.m. breakfast
coke was because the sign on the thing said needs cleaning.
So I couldn't get water.
Which is a basic human right.
I think someone found that out the hard way. I am offended. I don't know. It's it's hard
not to because I don't it just says needs cleaning. So it was going to be a breakfast
more. It was going to be breakfast water turned into a breakfast Coca-Cola. The American
journey. They're very cold rather than actual. My body was cleaning it. Someone was like,
Oh, this is filthy. Went out and made a sign that wrote that says needs cleaning and put it on the machine.
I should clarify, this is more of like a Wally situation.
It's a digital.
Oh, okay.
Yes.
The machine is telling you the machine instructed me to not have a clean, like a self-clean cycle.
Well, I assume if it had a self-clean cycle, we just run the self-clean cycle, wouldn't it?
Yeah.
I wish.
Speaking of a Wally situation, I went by a wall green's earlier today.
I'm so mean. I'm sorry.
And what was I getting at wall greens? What? I got a wall green. Oh, I needed, I needed, I needed,
I needed to still water my clothes.
I was in one side of the wall greens and I was going to leave, but then I saw like the frozen
section on the other side of the store. Yeah. and they had replaced all of the glass cases with like
Displays
So you walk up to the frozen section and it's just like a monitor that shows you what should be there
What what is what is behind that door?
So people aren't like stood there with it open the door?
But I opened it to look what was in there because with glass you could at least see through
Now like there's this screen and I don't know if the screen's right We already had a perfectly fine system. You could see through the glass what was in there.
Now it's just a fucking monitor.
I need a shirt that says it was lean quizzes.
I mean, it was lean quiz.
I mean, it was lean quiz.
I mean, it was lean quiz.
I mean, it was lean quiz.
It was lean quiz.
It was lean quiz.
It was lean quiz.
It was lean quiz. what was in there. Now it's just a fucking monitor.
I need a shirt that says it was lane quiz.
I mean, it was lane cuisine.
This is super nerdy for a second, but I already know I've seen computer cases where they
will like take off like a portion of a monitor and put it on there.
So it's slightly transparent, but also still a monitor.
Do that. Yeah. See if you see through it. I'm, but also still a monitor. Do that.
Yeah.
Because you see the, yeah.
You want to waste energy, do it that way.
And then this, this is even creepier, right?
Like this goes a step further.
Because there was, I love the energy.
There was a little sign next to it
that said something like wave to talk.
No.
And I was like, what do you want?
What?
Wave to talk.
Yeah.
And then there was another sign to the side of that
that said, we value the privacy of our customers
We will not use the recordings
From these machines for any purpose other than
Recording you to yeah to get your attention
I look all of them have little fucking cameras in them to see if someone's looking at them because if you're not looking at them
Then it's an advertisement
But if you get close up like you want to look and see what's in there that it switches to like a menu of what should be in that
This what should be in that case uh, this, what should be in that case.
So the camera not just a sensor.
It's like, there's a, there was a sign saying that they don't use their recordings for any
other purpose.
There's a sign where they're lying.
Right.
Yeah, that's what, that's what it is.
It's slightly close to my nart, your reporter, right?
Soon, I'll track the face and I'll know, you know, just so safe, shit, the inscrubs.
It's Gus.
You had a podcast where he yelled about link cuisine.
Yeah. Show him all about link cuisine. Yeah.
Show him all the link cuisine.
Yeah.
We should warm up the coax a bit before we get this.
It's got baby hair.
But it was really disturbing to see that in like a while.
What's the point?
How much did they spend on that?
An unnecessary amount.
It was more than $1.
So what's the purpose of it?
To get people to stop putting the fruits.
But when I was a group, when it was glass,
you would just look through the glass.
Right, you could see we had a system that worked.
Yeah.
I could use my eyes.
Yeah, but this way, it can be,
it seems like this now, they can have advertisements
in between.
Yeah.
They disappear when you look at them though.
We get to close and look. You can look in the distance. Yeah, They disappear when you look at them, though. We get to close and look.
You can look in the distance.
How does that place the ads where the text gets really
spooled over the advantage, right?
I saw a thing on Reddit, which is like the most podcast
since ever.
But I think it was forward.
Has it technology now?
Or they've patented this technology where billboards can
beam the content to your car while you're driving to give you the ad on your like media screen.
Thank you for for ruining cars even more than you already did. Really appreciate it.
Yes. Christ dude. You should have questions.
Let me guess. You have to pay to opt out of this.
It would not surprise me if they charge you a monthly subscription. It would not surprise me to opt out of that. They charge you a monthly subscription. It would not surprise me. To opt out of that, that would be perfect.
You're distracting.
Yeah.
Well, so the article I read, it was for media screen.
So I think it's like, when you get the fucking kids in the back,
they're watching Finding Nemo and all of a sudden they're like,
I want a breakfast coke.
I want giant rice crisps, now.
I need link cuisine now, mom.
How long do you think it is before a government allows
Companies to take over your phone screen. I always think about what I want to play in when it's like The captain comes on train phone like when you're watching the screen on the plane
It interrupts the movie with you know the safety stuff
But when you're on your phone you're like me. I'm not gonna listen to that
Yeah, I'm gonna watch my movie people push back against that pretty heavily for a very long time. Like I don't I don't see that happening
Anytime soon because that is very like be so annoying, but we already kind of get that
I guess you get it in like absent shit. Well with the alerts right like you can turn us off
We had that one the other day. I always feel like an asshole though the one uh, yeah, the the it was like blue alert
You know blue alert suspect in your area. Be careful.
It's like, what the fuck?
So I was like, I was like, oh man,
I just took my dog out.
Thank God, I'm in my house.
I'm safe.
Don't worry about anything.
It turns out, oh, it was something in a witch's house.
Which is how far away?
It's practically in Oklahoma.
What?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was like, why did you say there was a threat in my area?
Like I was nervous.
I think Canada is closer than which I say.
Like is that still Texas?
It's still Texas.
It's still Texas, practically.
I'll go.
But it's like, it's as if we got in the lurch that there was something in Houston.
Yeah.
So there's statewide alerts.
I think it varies.
Uh, yeah.
Maybe they just like the coding they did on it was wrong or something.
It's a, uh, which is how false is a four and a half hour drive.
It's 303 miles. I'm glad
that you brought your dogs inside. Well, in some ways, maybe it was just like super advanced
heads up. Like if they, you know, maybe it's like, hey, you got four hours, bunker down,
go get a link with the alien team. Come back. Get your coke out of now. It'll warm up
a little bit. I don't think you'd give baby hands, hands. I'm sorry. No, I love it. I want to try.
I'll try to put it later.
I want fan art of me with mittens holding coaks and saying,
it's still too cold.
Yeah!
So, if I gave you an ice cube and you just had to hold it
until it was melted, could you do it?
Yes, because the coke was colder than an ice cube.
The coke was not colder than an ice cube.
It was not colder than an ice cube.
I don't think any of us could do that. It's painful.
A nice cube.
Holding a nice cube until it melts.
Give me one right now.
It's fucking hard.
I already got one on all.
It's tough.
Linky just pointed out that maybe these
coaks are expired.
I had to call the one that makes me.
Well, I had one for breakfast this morning,
and I'm doing OK.
April 6, 2022.
We're good.
Do we have an ice cube for Carrie?
Carrie really wants to be here.
I'm just saying yes. You give me either a penalty. I can't end an ice cube for Carrie Carrie really wants to I'm just saying you give me either a pair of
10 and an ice to you. I want to feel the coke. We'll compare the two.
Well, we get that. I something really discussing happened earlier. Hell yeah. Oh, you've pulled
something out of your body. I almost don't I hear about it after you witnessed it in person. Did you eat more of the rescue
speech? Sure. Of course, Claire. Every time the camera's not on me, I'm eating my
Christmas. We were filming stuff for squad team course earlier. And, uh, you know, we all
show up where in masks and then when we film, you know, we take the mask off film the thing
and put our masks back on. So safe. Uh, I was gonna be on camera, so I took my mask off,
put it down with my stuff. Like, it my shirt like blue surgical masks like the standard kind of okay. Yeah, pretty generic
Yeah, all right
So I put it down and we filmed the thing that we were filming and then we were done
I walked over to grab my mask and put it back on and I went and my mask was gone
I was like where did my mask go and I looked around on the table and I was like
Blaine's mask is right there, where's my mask?
And I turned around to ask you when a woman mask went
and Blaine had a mask on.
And I was like, Blaine, is that my mask?
You was like, no, this is my mask.
I said, your mask is right here on your wallet.
Where'd you get that one from?
He's, that one was next to your backpack.
I was like, that's my mask, dude.
What?
He looked like he wanted to vomit.
Like, is all the color drained out of the cup of space
Where did you get that mask next to your backpack?
How long we've been doing we've been wearing masks for like a year and a half now
I don't think I've heard of anybody grabbing the wrong mask and putting it on
That's why you get like your own personal, like cloth
mask. I have those.
Just so you can never make me have.
See, they're fucking cold.
It's almost officially fall.
It's time to get cozy.
And there's nothing cozier than me.
And these I know you've heard me talk about me.
And he's a long time.

They're so comfortable.
They feel great.
It's the only underwear I wear. It's got the guccile of approval.

Oh, he's got ice cubes inside. This all I already regret is this as cold as it was before because that's just this is frozen.
It's just like you pulled this out of Antarctica.
Gavin, you have to do this with me. Oh, he's already started already. he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's Everything about this I almost just draped my arm. This is nothing
This this coke is painful Eric and this already hurts more. This is burning a hole through my hand
On the table I almost put my hand behind the couch. They drip and I looked and there's just like a exposed plug strip back there.
Just do this way.
I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm a good ice cube, a computer.
Yeah.
I just throw it at a three-nearer computer.
Okay.
It's fine.
You all have the baby hands. Wait, wait, wait, wait's a problem. If this hand is doing something
this other hand also usually does it? What? This? This? What? Yeah. I could hold a nice
cube all day. How was that? I was I was I was no you all not. It'll melt. Oh, this is
warmer than the coke was. I'm telling you. Is that true? This doesn't hurt. I had to
shift hands with the coke walking from the kitchen over here.
But Mel does I get absorb temperatures. I guess I guess
I guess how does he get colder than freezing?
I go. Maybe because the I see you melt. So it like is releasing energy?
Because it's facing that.
Isn't that what you're making your hand colder if it's releasing energy?
If it's releasing it. If you put salt on it. Cold. No, it's face would make your hand colder if it's releasing energy.
If it's releasing it's salt on it cold.
No, it's not absorbing energy.
I don't know.
Okay, I was open for second to see how much it was melted.
This is taking a long time.
This is yeah, I didn't I wasn't really
I'm almost melted.
Yeah, my zone is okay. He's got warm hands guys.
Okay, this is going.
Well, is that this is as much as mine?
Yeah, your hands are warm. Would cold feel colder on them?
What? Wait, so that guy?
If you're hungry, yes, you'll need to switch places.
So it's a legitimate question.
No, I see what you're saying.
With one hand, would something cold feel colder to you than someone with cold hands?
It depends on where you've what your normal feeling of your hands is.
Like you could have cold hands, but also you've been in a hot room.
Or if you've been outside and you're all hot and you go into a cold room, it's going
to feel colder.
Yeah, exactly.
Then if you're cold and go into that same temperature room, yeah.
Well, you're everyone's furiously talking.
Yeah, the American going to town over here.
We're hey, Barbara, were you there on to something?
Or were you like assholes in two minutes when the comments come?
Little bit calm.
A little combie here.
Nice is absorbing energy in order to melt.
It's an endothermic process.
Thanks, Tom Bombadill 92.
I couldn't tell you were a huge nerd just by the name.
Get him.
Get up.
Get up.
Get up.
The people who are watching are in the mood.
Tom Bombadill, I'm sorry. I just I'm glad to cut you from the movies at all
I mean I understood so
Tom Bombadillo from Lorde Reigns. I
Don't know nothing about the character everyone seemed to be talking about that character being missing but
Terrible all you did was sing Tom Bombadillo over and over and then save them from, they received them from
underground. Why were they underground? It's like really early when they first leave the
shire, maybe even before they get to breathe, they like get into trouble and they're trapped underground
and Tom Bombadillo has to come and save them. All right, it's pretty much gone. Is it though? Alright, I'll keep holding it.
I mean, it doesn't hurt at all. I have these strong hands. So it doesn't even bother me.
A strong, rough, manly hands. So strong and warm. So tall. He's just got to it,
low bird. Did you ever play mist? Yeah, I did. Because they've made it again.
Did they like remastered it?
Yeah, I think it's released it.
Why didn't I never play the original?
Was it like a...
Was it free-roaming?
Was it a point-and-click?
I remember it being point-and-click.
You could just walk around, I guess.
It kind of feels like the witness.
Yeah, it was like that with all the lines.
Kind of with all the lines.
But I thought, well, I never played the original, so I'll play this version. I walked out of the first area and I was just like walking around. I
didn't want to touch any stuff yet. I was just walking around and then eventually I was just like,
okay, I guess I'll start pressing stuff. And there's like a bit in the middle with like a
model of a ship and I just pressed three random buttons and the ship raised up and I got an achievement and I was like
What are I just do and then I looked I looked online to see like how to do that
It's this whole thing
I literally walked into the game and accidentally guessed the three buttons that you have to go on this epic long
Journey around all these different areas to find out the combination to raise the ship
Oh, and it made me want to not play the game anymore
It's gone to find out the combination to raise the ship. And it made me want to not play the game anymore.
It's gone.
Mine's away.
Can I?
Because I was like a big boy.
I just missed a big chunk of this list.
Wow.
Can I give you a confession about that game?
Yeah.
I've never confessed this to anybody before.
You had exclusive scoop.
This ice is totally melted by the way.
So mist came out what like 94 95 somewhere around there.
I grew up in a really small town. And at the time,
I was the only person in my town with internet access. Like at a 2400-bottom and that
damn people didn't know what the internet was by this point. So it might have been 93.
93 94 somewhere around there. I was gonna say that's a lot of porn but it's actually not.
It was so slow. Yeah. Downloading a picture to whack it. Two took five to six minutes. One picture.
And you couldn't support.
How long did the whacking took?
Like 15 seconds.
So anyway, I was the only person with internet access. I'm a friend of mine bought Mist.
And he played it for weeks and he finally beat it.
I was like, hey, I want a bar of that. So he lent it to me and he liked you all six CDs.
I thought it was a bunch. I think it was like one.
So I borrowed Mist from him and I instantly became frustrated because it's like a super
tough puzzle game. So I went on the internet and I found a walk through and I beat it like
in a day and I was like, oh, hey, I finished the game here. Let me give it back to you. It's
Frank. You know, from here, I was in half with it was Frank who had lent it to me. I gave
it back to him. He's like, you're finished already? I was like, yeah, the game was super easy.
I don't want to be a day to finish. And to this day, he thinks I'd be missed in a day
with no help, but it's only because I had,
I was the only person to tell with internet access.
So when you're just looking at the walkthrough
when you couldn't figure it out,
or you just like, speeding,
I just ran the game.
I just ran the game.
I mean, did you have fun?
Yeah, it was fun.
I never went back and replayed or anything.
You should do it now with this new version. Yeah, it is.
And no guides. What you should do is walk into the area with the little model ship and just press three buttons and see if you get it right.
Yeah, see if you race.
If I remember what the walkthrough said when he says an achievement, you just ran on the press buttons.
It's not like you like, yeah, so be a significant portion of the game.
It's I don't really know what you're supposed to do, because I skipped all of it,
but you're gonna find dates,
and then you figure out to get in a room,
and then you type in the dates,
and it moves just like planetarium,
and you find constellations,
which relate to pictures you got to pick on these lights.
But I basically just went to the end of that puzzle,
and went, boom, boom, boom,
and I guess the combination out of like eight different pictures.
Damn.
So there's some, I would love to know
if that's happened to anyone else.
Maybe they just give it to you
no matter what you put in.
Who knows?
No, I'm just kidding, no, no.
Why don't you stop to make sure I was like,
do you have stuff to press anything?
And I was like, oh, I've messed up this.
Can you come out?
And it wasn't like an obvious like,
six, six, six, next like a seed and start.
No, it was, it was like buttons to have circles have circles and when you hit the button a pitch comes up.
Okay.
Also, uh, my eyes basically melted and I was just tired of my hand being wet.
Uh, it still hurts even after letting go.
It's not.
So I think I have baby hands actually.
Also the way all your hands felt when they were cold and wet like that, that was the way
my hands were 99% of the time. like that that was the way my hands were
99% of the time Why just to my hand was just like oh, I'm just sweating. Yes, it's fine. I must be playing a video game. Yep
Uncomfortable. Yeah, man. I've been playing
I've been someone said I may be I told that mystery, but I have told that mystery before I don't remember damn
I made you think of a miss before this new one. Okay. I can't think about before. I don't remember. Damn. I made you think of a miss before this new one.
Okay.
I can't think about missed.
I'm not a member.
Have any of you played through?
It takes you.
I played some of it with John.
Yeah.
That's fine.
That's a really fun game.
Trevor and I just finished it.
Really?
Like two days ago.
Oh, but you didn't want it to end.
I didn't want it to end.
We would play like maybe half an hour to an hour every few days.
The last time I was on you just started just started.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
It's such a fun game.
I think one of my favorite all-time games now, like top five easily.
That's some really cool mechanics in it.
It's just like it's just so beautiful to play too and so interesting.
They change the mechanics every couple levels too. So like, you know, one level you'll be,
you know, someone will have a magnet that pushes,
they don't have one that pulls,
and then another one you'll have like,
you're able to sing and lift things,
and the other person is able to like,
you know, scream at something and it like opens something.
It's really cool.
Yeah, I played it a little bit with Teddy,
and we were like a hammer and nail.
Yeah, hammer nail. Which is really fun
That's the level. We'll play a 12 minutes
Yeah, I keep seeing people talking about it. I haven't played it yet. It's this like
Narrative
Game where like you're kind of like it's like kind of like in a loop. You're trying to get out of it
Interesting. I like loop games. It I
Think that it is worth playing. I think that the mechanics of it are really interesting. I think there's some
I don't want to spoil anything
I think there's some things about the story. Is it a really dark storyline?
That doesn't even begin to describe it because I think I saw someone talking about this game in a video I watched online
Yeah, and it's like there's twists and turns. Yeah, it's very dark. It's interesting. I
don't want to say too much about it. I think that it is worth playing. It's not going to probably be
your favorite game of it. It would be a game that we can make content with, or you think it's maybe a little too dark actually.
And so, what if it's a game that people play,
then what, why can't I mean, you could, I think you could.
Well, I think the thing is, is like,
at least the kind of gameplay we like doing is usually fun
and upbeat and not like,
you're dealing with the murder of people.
No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no.
So no, I mean, like there's some funny parts to it.
And then they're again, I don't give anything away,
but there's going to get to a point where you're playing
and you start to go really?
Oh, oh, and then it's like not as like fun after that.
It's got a top down.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's got a top shelf cast. Yeah, yeah, James McAvoy Daisy Ridley,
William DeFoe, yeah, what the fuck? Yeah, um, video game. Yeah. Um, it's interesting. There's
there's a lot of opinions on it, uh, but you kind of need to like play it together, but I I think
it's worth playing for the mechanics. Okay, that's what I will say.
So maybe not a not a live stream, maybe not, maybe not a live stream.
Although there's one point where you can just like spam the X button,
there's like, there's like a part where there's like a cop there.
You can just spam the X button.
You like, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir.
That part is, that should just be our whole video.
Yeah.
If you end right around the sir
Ark
Is that like in the first five minutes? Yeah, yeah, you can make a sir
Did you play out to wilds? No, that's a good like okay?
Which one was that was that the one that was the RPG?
Okay, that was outer worlds. That was the RPG? Don't you mean, okay? That was out of worlds. That was the out of worlds.
Out of worlds.
I want to play that one, which sounds like you're saying
out of worlds with an Australian accent.
Yeah, the loop one is out of wild.
I mean, that both good games.
Yeah, but yeah, I've talked about the outs well.
But yeah, you can only you can only really play ones.
You go back in time every like 20 minutes.
Yeah, everything's how you, well, nothing's permanent.
You have this your knowledge.
So you just played it from way each time.
There's this old, uh, not what it looked like in all game.
It's not, uh, you can call it minute.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
That was like on the, the switch and like PC.
And it was like a very similar thing.
It was like a Zelda, like, or like 2D Zelda
escalated like a similar thing.
Unfortunately, no games exist to me right now
because I'm playing a Final Fantasy 14 MMO. So I'm, that's it. Why did you start? I feel like I know several people
who have gotten in Final Fantasy XIV here recently. Why? Well, there's an expansion coming out
later this year, like November. Okay, so that's not it? That's not it because I wasn't playing
it. I mean, probably like reminded people about Final Fantasy. Yeah, but I would think they would come back in when it comes out in November.
Yeah, they're there.
I heard, I think they have more players now than they normally do at an expansion loss.
Like a launch.
Yeah, but why?
It just started.
So, okay.
A lot of people just don't want to play Wow anymore.
So, okay, they're jumping to a new MMO.
Why don't they want to play Wow? Because a lot of stuff. Everything going want to play wow anymore. So they're jumping to a new MMO. Why don't they want to play wow?
Because a lot of everything going on is...
So maybe it's like people... yeah. I just had played in a moment a while and I like fun with
fantasy and I started playing it and...
The game is eight years old, from fantasy 14.
They really called documentary about it on the no clip.
They put out the first version of the game
and it was really bad. So they got a new creative staff and in the background remade the game
over the course of a year. The whole thing again. They just did it again. And so that's why the first
the first game like the first part of it's called a realm of born because they just wiped it
and started from scratch. And that game is very good. And they've been building on that for
seven, six and a half years now. That's wild. Yeah. It's there's a whole documentary. It's crazy.
It's insane. But they like, it's very good. Yeah. And they just did like an Indiana Jones move
with it. Pretty, pretty. I mean, from like they they they they didn't tell anybody at first.
They're still updating the original game. Okay. And like, hey, look, you can actually use the UI now.
And like, hey, the game's like a little bit more fun now in balance.
And at some point they said, Hey, there's a meteor that's going to crash on the planet.
I'm not even fucking around a meteor crashed.
And then, hey, your character can move over and everything.
But here's now the two point over version of the Wow.
And now here's like the game you play for now.
Fascinating.
They just like completely. So they do in the end of0 version of the game. Wow. And now here's like the game you play for now on. Fascinating.
They just like completely.
So it did Indiana Jones it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, but it didn't work in Indiana Jones.
This one worked really well.
He didn't shake the back out.
This would be like if he did it.
And then like the ball was like, get out.
Go on.
You really did a terrible job of eyeing up that sand.
Yeah.
And he gets too much credit for that move.
Didn't work.
He bought him a little bit of time, right?
People run away.
Well, you think I'm out immediately.
You better just grab it and run immediately, surely.
Yeah, I guess the mechanism did go really slow.
But wait, the mechanism went down.
Oh, you're saying like if we've just taken it,
they would have gone up.
Right, they might have been a different trap.
Do you think it was like really cold?
That was the problem.
Yeah, he couldn't let it go. Of course. And that was a problem? Could it be a weekend?
Does that mean like a bug never walked on that thing? The entire time it was in there,
like a tarantula? There were a lot of tarantulas in there. Not for
Molinas back is covered in them. Maybe that it did happen and it did set off all the,
you know, booby traps and shit. And they just reset it.
Who? The spider. Or unless they just have like, huh?
That's a good point.
Yeah.
I'm going to rock you like a hurricane.

Thank you.
I got one.
I got one.
I got one. I got one. I got two.
Yeah, if you don't want to end mo's are still addictive in 2021. I'm sorry. Be careful. I don't don't tell me that. Be careful. Tell me why I should play.
Don't tell me that. Tell me why I should. Okay, for real. I got it in my role, Pearl.
This game, because I play I play wow as it when it started. I played like the first like three years or so.
play I play wow as it when it started. I played like the first like three years or so. It at this game actually feels like it wants me to play. So here's the thing ready. I started out as a black
mage and I thought you know be fun being a red mage. I just became a red mage. I didn't have to make
it your character. I didn't have to play the story over again. You just switched class. You can switch like
is it we're able to switch just because they're both mages. I got I'm a gunbreaker now. So I got so
yeah. Whatever weapon you're holding that's yeah that's right. I fucking said it. Gunes. I'm a gunbreaker now. So, whatever weapon you're holding,
that's right, I fucking said it.
Gunbreaker.
I'm a gunbreaker now.
So cool.
But I mean, I feel like that kind of works to your disadvantage.
In my mind, the reason you make a new character
and you start from scratch is so you learn
all the intricacies of playing that class.
So, it's a very like destiny model.
You have daily rouletlette that go through all
of like the different dungeons and trials and stuff that you can do. So and those are your capdown
at the level again. So you can play through those. There's a ton of incentives. I'm not going to
do a good job to do it, but I it feels like they want you to play this game. Also, there's an entire
like Vegas area called the Gold Sossar where you can like like fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun about you. Can we do the podcast from Final Fantasy 14? Yeah. Yeah.
I'm just saying we have a weekly stream. Oh, yeah. Play that game on there. It's work. Could you, could you play with, well, okay, this is a
dumb question, but I haven't played a lot of MMOs. So you could play with other
people. Yeah. So like if me and Gus were playing together, we just show each
are just like coordinate what server is it doesn't work like that? We have to
so there's, there's data centers and then the, the servers in between, as long as you're
on the same data center, you can go back and forth between, oh, worlds.
And then when that, when the expansion comes out, you can go across data centers now, baby.
This is the, so has ever, has everybody stopped watching?
Are all, is everybody gone now?
Two.
And we have Tom Bombardale still here.
Oh, hell yeah.
Of course.
Did you know he's a white mage? Every time I see myself on the monitor and I
feel bad for Janus because this is one of Jeff Ramsey's shirts from his
collections over the years. This just looks like a guy holding a leaky dick.
Hell yeah. Right. What is it?
I just realized it's not that.
It's a surfboard.
Why is it dripping?
Or it's like, it's not a surfboard.
It's like one of those like a life card things with the...
Oh, booby.
But it really does just look like a comedy dick.
That's on purpose, right?
It's gotta be.
I don't know, because he is holding it where his...
Crosches.
Someone in chat said it looks like their wife's divorce attorney.
This? Yeah. Are you sure that we're talking about me? I didn't see who said it, but someone in chat did say that. Let's just see what it was Tom Bobbidil. It was not Tom Bobbidil. I would
have known. Oh, that might have been. I've been playing Ghost of Tsushima. Oh, it sounds delicious.
Is it the director's cut? I'm the PS5 version? Okay.
Which I soon probably is I think so. Yeah, that's like an island and stuff. I never played it before I just picked it up
Is it just released on the PS5 that is a fun game like I?
Totally missed that game when it came out
But it is exactly the kind of game I like where you can like sneak around like scout out a base and like see it right then you see like how you're gonna approach it attack
Like you do a little bit of stealthiness a little bit of diversion
They're going and murder everybody. That was my favorite thing about like far cry three and four. Yes
Yeah, I'm always searching for that look far cry three. Yeah perfect it that loop
I
I planned them that game
So Ryzen was good for that too which one just horizon come up on an area and be like oh, I'm gonna
Well, I usually just stealth it until it all goes tits up.
Yeah, stuff.
It's crazy.
They just go nuts killing everything.
I'm having a ton of fun with it.
I was like doing all the side missions,
just like wandering around.
You plan on PS5?
Yes.
I had the...
There's a samurai class in fun, fancy 14.
Who?
Tell me more.
Yeah.
I was, I was, I was complaining about my internet speed the other day to one of our co-workers who whose internet speed is slower and I specifically I was talking about go to Sushima's like yeah, I
I bought it digitally on my ps5 and I went to download it and it's like a 60 gigabyte game and it took like 10 minutes to download
And I was so pissed off that it took that long to download. And they were like, I downloaded four gigabytes the other day
and it took me two hours.
I was like, oh, right.
I have a ridiculous internet connection.
I just take for granted that.
Is that gigabit?
Yeah.
Giggle gigabits, do you still live?
Yeah, it was like 10 minutes for 60 gigs.
This is bullshit.
I was so mad.
Do you ever think about like the old porn days
and then you're like, wow. You've come a long way baby. Yeah
Oh, you gonna get the two of the 60 gig point if I can yeah, absolutely I can't believe I can't believe so much the world has
I feel like everywhere I go in England you get around 40 unless you're playing ridiculous for like
Above 100 and Austin has had a gig a gig a bit connection for 10 years now almost a decade
and is doubling it.
That's 20 is two gig connection.
So when I was thinking about my I was I was bitching about my internet connection.
I was thinking back to when cable mode was first came out in Austin.
I remember when they first rolled out it was like 98 or 99.
I want to say it was 98 and they called it, you know, it was time or it's they call it roadrunner
because it's really fast like the road runner.
But we had that same time.
And it was, I think when they launched, it was six megabits.
And then they eventually bumped it up to eight megabits.
And when they first launched in beta here in Austin, if you wanted to get road runner,
you have to go attend like a multi-hour class at time-honored to learn how to use it.
And then when they gave it to you, you could only plug it directly into one computer.
You couldn't share the connection
amongst multiple computers.
So I worked in a call center.
So we figured out a way to build a dummy computer
running software called WinGate
that then acted as a router
that could then share the internet connection
amongst other computers.
And then it took them a couple of years
to get to the point that like, okay, you can share it. You can share it amongst multiple computers.
No, what's happening after it?
It would just authenticate to the MAC address of the eSynet card
that plugged it into. It was like a whitelist thing.
Right. Oh my god. Why?
I can't get over yet to go to a class.
Yeah, it was like, oh, I got to go to roadrunner class.
I didn't see that. It was my internet.
She's crazy. It's like they cleared out the HB cooking class first
so the new payment is like, all right.
Let's go.
God, it was so fucking stupid.
And now it's just like, oh yeah, got 10 minutes
for 60 gigs bullshit.
My phone is faster than, like my 5G is probably not real 5G,
but my 5G is like faster than that.
Yeah, like if my phone was getting 8 megabits,
it'd be like stupid.
My favorite thing is the competitiveness between you and Blaine.
I mean, in general, but who has faster internet?
I think he did beat you.
He did, but you weren't there last week.
I made changes to my home network, so now my internet's faster.
And I let him know on the media, like one of our weekly meetings,
I was like, I was just my internet real fast, and I sent him a screenshot. I was like, oh, 991 megabits down.
How's yours looking, Blaine? He's like, the son of a bitch.
So you're competing over something that fluctuates. It's just delivered to your house by other people.
Yeah. Look how good I am at taking this. What did you, what did you change in your,
do you some of the mocha adapter really helped you some
modulation.
Because now with the mocha adapter I have two gigs
internally coming down to my office. Yeah.
So like I have multiple machines there.
They're not getting bottlenecked on one gig line going
out anymore. I felt bad about the final fantasy 14
stuff earlier, but now I've
just felt kind of that mocha. Such a nerdy podcast. I love it.
Let me adjust my glasses. Yeah. I've never felt so dumb.
I was having a tech issue lately with my internet has been doing this weird thing where
certain games or apps on my computer.
I'll be connected like a phone.
For example, if you guys have played that, where I'll just disconnect me from the room and
then I'll reload me in.
So everyone's responding and laughing to the drawings,
and I'm not seeing anything,
and then I'll be like, you've been disconnected.
But my internet doesn't go out.
It's still working everywhere else.
Travers is working and all this stuff.
And I wrote about it online to be like,
hey, anyone know what is going on or any fixes?
All the responses of people who actually know
what the fuck they're talking about,
talking about DNS and like,
you have a double net situation going on.
All this like terminology where I had to call in term
and be like, what is this response mean?
Could you help me do whatever this person is saying?
Please help me.
And even then like they were like nobody could come
into a solid conclusion.
It's like people, I was reading it also would like say,
it must be this, no, it can't be that.
It's gotta be this.
That's another person, that's impossible.
It can't be either of those things.
My dad's also been trying to help me solve it
and like this weekend, he's like,
I think I might have another solution for you to try.
I'm like, have you really been like researching this
and looking into it like, for like a week and a half?
Do you think it's the thing that has the worst ratio
of like most people who use it,
but know the least about is like networking?
Probably.
Like everyone needs the internet,
or Wi-Fi or whatever they've got going on.
I feel like one step down into the menu.
I'm just like, no idea.
What's all that?
Yeah, I have no idea.
Which one very happy.
Have a tech savvy boyfriend and a family
that could help me.
And Twitter.
And Twitter.
Well, I mean, yeah, everyone was super helpful on Twitter
and like giving a lot of good ideas.
Gus was one of them too.
I tried. It was driving me crazy.
I still don't know if any of the things I tried worked.
You're in a PC, right?
Yeah.
I would just re-install Windows.
I'm being honest.
I'm being honest. That actually, like, sometimes I fix a shit.
Yeah, honestly, that's what...
I do like every six months.
My dad, my dad, I'm going to say, he's like just you know restart all your hardware to because like you know
It's probably not that but you might as well. Sometimes think it's you know
It's get stuck in the tubes. Yeah, tubes get twisted. Yeah, I've been trying to learn more about networking and stuff
But there's some stuff where I can read it business card. What?
I
Trouble you with an unnecessary joke.
You can try to learn more about it.
Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
You've been going to roadrunner class.
So you joke about it.
Yeah. Yeah.
I've just been like, I'm at the point now where I just don't have enough
of the foundational knowledge where I'm trying to point now where I just don't have enough of the foundational knowledge
where I'm trying to do stuff where I'm like trying to do try to figure out some like
inter-v-land traffic and trunk port to shit and I'm reading stuff and I read it like five times
And then just have to give up because it's like I just don't understand
There's a piece of there's a piece of knowledge that I'm missing that doesn't allow me to read and understand the paragraph
And it's crazy like
How much you really need to learn
and know and like how dense your knowledge has to be
about that kind of stuff to be able to troubleshoot things
with people, like, people are giving me ideas
and like things to try and like, oh, it could be this,
could be that you should try doing that.
I'm like, it's like another fucking language.
Yeah.
When I used to do like our tech for the website and everything,
like I knew a decent amount,
but am I old desk in the beauty office? I had stacks of books, just like,
monsters, like thousands and thousands of pages. It was like, if something breaks, like, I don't
know how to fix it. Like, one of these books will tell me the answer. Like, I just, if I find
the right book, it'll tell me how to fix this. I have a question for you, and this, you don't have
to answer it. Okay. Who, which hire were you happier about?
Adam Baird or Bethany?
I like to see.
So here's the idea.
I'm going to say Adam Baird.
And that's because the tech was a constant problem every hour
of every day versus the event, which was really hectic for
One weekend, but really a couple months out of the year. Yeah, so it's like the event you could at least
Take a breath from every now and then but tech is just like always even when I went we're always fucking shit
I when I went on my
We were honeymoon after I got married like I couldn't really go on vacation or break like I had my sidekick with me
And I was still like fixing shit every day.
Especially if you're the sole tech person at a company.
I had a terminal program so I could SSH into our servers from my sidekick. I had little script
set up on my sidekick to restart services or reboot a server or whatever needed to get done.
Yeah, a pillow to cover myself up after you say.
Oh, so dreamy.
Honestly, I kicked you.
Yeah, it was on an edge connection.
It was so fucking slow.
Edge.
Yeah, it was like pre 3G, you know, yeah.
That's what I had in my own runner.
No, it was not even typing text was slow on fucking edge network.
It sucked.
I had the, I think it was Sony.
The it was instead of the the razor at the Sony blade.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
But then I looked at me when you said that.
Blade your eyes are very shadowed from your hat.
You just like, boy, yeah.
We had this, you're talking about VLands
and stupid home networking shit.
I don't know if you remember this.
When we were down at Ralph Oblonato,
like we had all of our editing machines
and we put footage on the network
and we didn't have the money to put a fiber network
in that office because it would have been super expensive.
So we're trying to figure out ways
to get data transferred faster
between the servers and the editing stations.
And I cobbled together this really shitty solution.
I don't know if you guys ever knew about this
or were aware of it, where I would run two network cables
to our editing machines, then on the router in the closet,
I would bond them into one virtual cable
to like trick the network to think.
Link aggregation.
Right, it was a link aggregation protocol
so that it would think that the computer had
a single two gigabit connection, instead of two one gigabit
connections, and it would coordinate the data transfer. So I had double the bandwidth. that computer had a single two gigabit connection instead of two one gigabit connections.
And it would coordinate the data transfer.
So I had double the bandwidth at the time.
That's cool.
Now that's the internet speed of Austin.
Yeah, and that's what they did with the internet.
My brain the entire time you were explaining that was going
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So yeah, I told you all about.
I can't talk about it.
Link aggregation protocol for that.
It was fucking pain in there.
So does that double the speed?
Or does it just mean there's one gig in each direction?
It doubles the speed.
Because yeah, then you, if the other way,
you should be able to get one gig in each direction.
You just can't use it.
You can either get one gig down or win gig up.
Just not both at the same time.
There's one gig of throughput.
Now you have two gigs of throughput.
Yeah.
And you can use it however you want.
Right.
Whether it's two up or one up one down or two down.
Yeah.
I feel like you're so confused.
I am.
This is the stuff that confuses me.
It's like a series of tubes, right?
I need to go on a course or something. Well, they're probably
like what Barrow saying it's like you have to. There's so much you have to know.
There's so many first steps you have to take to build up to get to that point where
then you can like keep using that knowledge and keep expanding it. Like you
don't it's like I guess taking a college class or something. You don't start at
the fucking last one. You start with the introductory class,
and then you work your way up.
The problem, though, of tech is like, you could,
I'll bet like a ton of the stuff that you're especially doing
like back in the day to center days,
probably doesn't fucking apply anymore at all.
Interesting, yeah.
At least some of it doesn't.
No, no.
And there's like new stuff that's come along that you'd like,
you haven't been doing the stuff.
That's a show that you don't know.
Having a breer in technology,
or any tech-based company is like,
it's going to evolve over time very quickly too.
Yeah.
One time I took a job.
There was a before-restitute.
That means it was here.
Go ahead.
I, I, a company I had worked for needed help because they were like transferring
their internet backbone provider from one to another.
And they needed help on a very specific thing.
They needed to help reconfiguring their border gateway protocols, which is I'm not going to get into all the technical details of that.
But I was like, oh, yeah, I know how to do that. That's no problem. I can bang that out real quick.
They're like, all right. So they hired me to do it. I know I do it.
All right. Here you go. Here's all the equipment. Just go ahead and get started. I was like, do you go here's all the equipment just go ahead and get started
I was like do you just do this like my book which book yeah I just opened by that point I opened up Google
I was like Google how do I configure bgp you asked jeeves swole's going on yeah but you didn't do it
beforehand you just showed up the day of the day yeah show up the day I'm like yeah I was I was
with you would tell you're like I didn't even look at it before.
I'm fine.
I didn't know what kind of hardware they had specifically.
So I was like, I don't think a BTP on a Cisco 7200 router,
whatever the fuck it was.
If someone was like walking behind you,
would you have hit the fact that you were Googling out
to do it?
You had like out time, like, hmm, just like to like a screen
filled with text, just like typing.
That's how it.
You just pull up a command prompt to fill it.
Yeah, I'm not gonna know that, I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that.
I'm not gonna know that. I'm not gonna know that. I'm not gonna know that. I'm not gonna know that. I think it was, you know, like one of those memes where it's like, Mimi?
Mimi?
Like what my parents think I do, what society thinks I do,
and like what I actually do,
and it was something like that for like a programmer.
Yeah.
And it was like just a Google homepage.
Yeah.
It's just, it's just copy and pasting for Stack Overflow.
Like it was just website that people ask questions.
And it's like, how do you do this?
And like, oh, here's how you do it.
You're like, and I'll take that.
Thank you.
Cool. It doesn't work. And it's nice.
Oh, it doesn't work.
What happened?
Yeah.
I think you reply, Hey, I tried to use this and didn't work.
Why?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's it's programming.
Yeah.

That's a problem, right?
It's like you eventually get to a point where everyone has like a little bit of knowledge, but then when like the foundational, people
disappear, the foundational knowledge goes away, then you're left with like, uh, oh,
oh, no one knows how to do anything anymore. You're looking at like a fucking BBS forum
post from Tisley, and you're like, okay, okay, this guy was in Wisconsin. Maybe I can
find him. And ask him how the fuck he did this. Call him up. Yeah, I'm gonna find him.
Because he has a certain set of skills.
Exactly.
A certain set of skills.
That's a reverse taken.
Give it.
Thank you.
That's given.
Which of the good taken, the first one's good,
the third one's bad, is the second one good on top?
I haven't seen a single taken.
I mean, either.
The first, you haven't been to the first token
is really good.
Ticket.
I have a rather token. I have a rather token. Yeah. me neither the first you haven't been to the first took in is really good I
get
Yeah, I keep trying to go to rotten tomatoes, but I keep typing it root tomatoes
Root tomatoes that come look up took an unwritten potato
Okay, take in there's more the first one. Yeah, well, there's one way they cut like 16 times for him to climb a fence
And it's like I think that's like the second is it there's taken taken to taking again and are you fucking serious?
That's the third one taking there's one way that like we're getting taken now. Yeah, where they took me we're the tookers now
They took me where we're the tookers now
Taking us 59% I'm rotten tomato 59 the first one. Yeah, which one that was for audience or or credit The first one was really good. Yeah, it's you maybe we're bad. Is it is it not good?
Yeah, when I find that movies I love are actually bad. I hate that I
Taking is 59% critic but 85% audience taken to is 22%
Taking is 59% critic but 85% audience. Ah, take in two is 22% critic, 52% audience.
Okay, so taking three is...
The way better audience.
12% critic, 43% audience.
Oh, I started watching the movie the other day.
That was absolutely terrible.
What was it?
Taking four.
I'm gonna see if I can find the description for it.
I don't want to spoil it.
Gavin, I'm embarrassed at the number of times that I've like watched something and gone, oh that was pretty nice. Let me see what Twitter said
about this before I say anything about it. You end 99 percent of the internet.
And then you're like reading it all and then you're like, I guess I hated that movie.
This movie stuff. You know what? Fuck this.
I hate that movie this movie. You know why fuck this?
Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna read you the summary of this movie that I tried
I'm gonna read this summary for this movie try to guess what you want it was no you're not you've never heard of this movie I just want to read it because it's ridiculous. Okay
Cheyenne a retired rock star living off his royalties in Dublin returns to New York City to find the man responsible for
Humiliation suffered by his recently deceased father during World War II his royalties in Dublin, returns to New York City to find the man responsible for humiliation
suffered by his recently deceased father during World War II.
So I started watching this movie, I've got about 40 minutes into it.
Sean Penn plays a retired Goth rocker whose father dies so then he goes to find a Nazi
who was mean to his dad in World War II.
This must be the place.
You heard of this movie?
No, I literally just looked it up.
I wanted to impress you.
It goes across the US hunting for a Nazi.
Jesus Christ.
I was like, what the fuck is this movie?
I watched about 30 minutes of it.
I was like, I can't.
The second you said Sean Penn plays, what would you say, a rock star?
Yes, a retired rock star.
A retired rock star? They would have retired rock star, a retired rock star.
They would have to be retired.
I was like, this can't be it.
That's it. And then the second you said that, it's like this picture of him.
You can't see that.
But just Google this must be the place you'll see him.
Yeah, he does look like.
Yeah.
The guy from the queue.
If he goes run over by the train, but what I was going to say is I think that
that's one of those movies where like I watched like 30 minutes of it, 40 minutes of it,
or whatever. I stopped it. I was like, I can't watch this this then I looked it up on rot tomatoes, and it was like reviewed really well
So I was like continue watching. No, I was like I'm not I don't I don't need to watch that you had maybe had a little help
You know maybe a little
Substance when you're watching it do you think that you would have enjoyed it more?
I was wrong 67% of rot in tomatoes audience to a way critic 58% audience distance when you're watching it. Do you think that you would have enjoyed it more? No, that was always wrong.
It's 67% of our audience.
Audience?
Two away.
A critic, 58% audience.
Ah, just a critic.
It's whenever the audience likes it less than a critic.
That's when I do move.
I think it's going to be bad.
Because I usually go with the audience.
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, we are the audience.
We are.
We are.
What's the movie that you've been most surprised
with how the internet didn't agree with you?
I hated uncut gems.
I hated that.
That's a stressful movie.
I think I maybe enjoyed five minutes of that film.
The rest of it, I was just like, this is stressful.
Everyone's talking over each other.
I don't feel happy watching this movie in any sense
Like not even I wasn't even getting enjoyment out of it
But people were going crazy for it and it was like fucking nominated for a bunch of awards
I mean again like I not everyone has to share the same opinion. Sure, I just because I hated it
I thought it was bad.
It's not me.
It is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I thought I, I, I enjoyed it.
I thought it was fine, but it was definitely one of those movies where it's like, this is
too stressful.
I don't want to watch that movie again.
I also felt that once upon a time in Hollywood was very boring.
I have heard some of the, like for like 80% of the movie, which that's too high of the
ratio for a movie to be boring.
Yeah.
But I get it.
You should add that to Run Tomatoes.
Yeah.
It's like, it was like, now we're in a half a long.
Plus the feet were too dirty.
I was okay with the feet.
Oh, I'm not saying too much.
Not dirty, no.
You say dirt, I say spice.
Okay.
That's actually a quentin turntino quote.
That guy's a maniac. Yeah. That's essentially a quentin turntino quote. That guy's a maniac.
Yeah.
What are the things you guys agree or disagree to?
This wasn't necessarily the internet, but years ago, God pre-rester teeth, I went and
I saw the movie Go with Jeff and Bernie and they hated go.
Well, once that again.
It's directed by Doug Lyman.
It's like about a rave in the 90s and like one of the characters like Steels drugs from
a drug dealer.
I thought it was really good and they hated it and they made fun of me for liking it.
But then I looked it up and it was like, it was like critically, critically it was
well received.
I was like, you guys are wrong. Like it was a good movie. It's not me. I looked it up and it was like, it was like critically, critically, it was well received. I was like, you guys are wrong.
Like it was a good movie.
It's not me.
I knew it. It's you.
But it's like, I feel like that's over the rod and tomatoes.
That's almost worse when you go in not knowing anything about a movie, watch it with people.
Then you walk out and you have like totally divergent opinions.
Like, we're going to fucking settle this.
Got to look this up.
Wait, it's sucks.
And this has happened to me more times than I like to admit.
When you go see a movie with friends,
and you know, like once you're done,
everyone walks out of theater and like congregates
in a little circle and like talks about it.
There's been so many times where I was like,
I enjoyed that.
I got up, walked out, and everyone's like,
that was dog shit.
But I was like, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That one part was kind of cool.
Yeah, I was like, well, I had to do that.
Yeah, yeah, that part. Yeah. I had that with that. Like, well, I like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That part.
Yeah.
I like that with that.
Like, what was the most recent Star Wars?
The...
The K-Munk.
Rice Skywalker?
Yeah.
I watched that film and I thought it was brilliant.
Yeah.
I loved it.
I was like, that was the best Star Wars movie I've ever seen.
And as I was walking out, everyone was like, that was such bullshit.
Oh, no.
I was like, I don't think, yeah, maybe it's because I'm not a huge star wars fan.
I've never really been into his kid.
Eight, eight, messed it up for me and then after that I just wasn't able to get back into it.
I love seven.
Seven was good.
I knew hope too.
I really liked that one and I knew the newest hope.
And then when eight, when the whole like,
fine thing happened, I just couldn't do that.
I couldn't do that.
I think I missed a bunch of them.
I didn't see Rises Skywalker.
I saw the one episode, I saw seven,
and then I didn't see eight or nine.
I feel like like a Rogue One.
I feel like had like,
some people like really fucking hated that movie.
I liked Rogue One. I liked it a like that one but I first people were like that that movie has the best
Star Wars scene of all movies. Does it? Okay, I'll have to watch it. But
the whole project my labor in the project. So good. I think was Freddie
Freddie Wong pointed out recently he was talking about Rogue One about how
timeline wise that scene doesn't make any sense. Because I don't even care.
If you watch the end of that movie, it's supposed to immediately go into episode four, and
then it's like, he has a totally different attitude doing the frumpy thing, like in the
hall.
It's like a totally different Darth Vader from one movie to the next.
Well, because he got out of his system.
Yeah, what if they had to Rogue One, he was just like, you did a lot, and then he was just
like, oh, he just had to like, have a free that. Yeah. It's like, what if that Darth Vader still
existed, when you have just boarded the plane or the ship at the beginning of a new hope
and just murdered everybody and be like, all right, here we go. No movies. That's
it. Roll credits. It's over. Yeah. Maybe he's just like, man, I just killed like 16 people
and I'm done killing for the day. I'm just gonna...
I think...
I'm trying to think of the last time I saw it, because usually I just...
I wait until somebody has said...
Somebody I know has said like, oh you should go see this movie before I see it.
Yeah.
Do people like Ant-Man?
I really enjoyed the Ant-Man.
I fucking hate an Ant-Man.
Really?
No, I mean, hey, that's totally fair.
Exactly what you literally just talked that's totally fair.
Exactly what you literally just talked about.
I'm sorry.
No, I'm just talking to myself.
Here's the thing.
And that's why, like, years ago that I would have been embarrassed, but now don't give a
fuck.
I can't imagine feeling that strongly about
Iron man they just did Iron Man again. What do you mean it was just Iron Man?
I know it's been so long since I've made this argument to somebody but it was just like it's the same thing We're with the I don't know I'm and built his suit exactly
Stole it that man got given it by old ant man. Also, Iron Man's not small.
Yeah, fucking God me, Barb.
It's big.
I used to have, I wrote like a thesis at one point and I don't,
I don't know, I didn't know.
I used to have a big argument for this.
I don't remember what it was anymore because I haven't seen it in so long,
but I just, the whole, it felt to me like the same way that people were,
we're giving, uh, I can't remember the actual name of it now, but Star Wars 7, shit, for basically,
like, feeling like a rehash of a new hope. What was it called?
Star Wars 7? Yeah. Yeah. For so many, I keep wanting to call it a new hope too.
That's how I felt to my, I just like, all of the like, the pop-ups are very similar, of just like,
like, down in the dumps, get suit, things get better.
And then business partner ends up turning on him.
Also, it was kind of a shitty person.
Also, it was kind of a shitty person, but got better.
Yeah, it's just a lot of like similarities.
I don't think I minded it.
I see that that's I feel like most people were.
Yeah, I like I watch pool run in anything.
Yeah, me too.
I like to see him.
Yeah, be in a movie.
But also, I think one of the
funniest moments in any of the Marvel movies was when it cuts wide and the little trains
crashing to each other. Yeah, and you just see such a great visual. In this moment, I'm
realizing that I think I'm wrong. Well, not as great. I don't think it's a great character
movie. Yeah, I was never a huge fan of the Iman music but the best part is
Is like the way they play with size. Yeah, the way like they recontextualize things like the the training for example
Yeah, like I think those are definitely the best parts of those movies
Absolutely, and they're really fun. Yeah, even like I thought at man of the wasp wasn't that great
But like this day is still the only marvel movie I haven't seen are you to get a keeper that way?
What if you what's your favorite one?
What if you blood you're in there?
There's a new one coming soon.
The, not soon.
I'm gonna get it wrong again.
Is it quantumanium or is that?
I think so.
Okay, because then there's also the Dr. Strange
and the Multiverse of Madness.
Yes.
Those are the two I kept mixing up.
I think that is a cool, it's always like,
is it Antman's like the old woman she gets stuck all small right?
Yeah, in that movie in the second one. Yeah, I think that as a concept is really scary. Yeah, just to be stuck so tiny
The way time works though, isn't it like no time for her basically, but she aged that's right
Yeah, well actually I just have in the second movie. I don't know
Yeah, cuz she yeah, yeah, yeah, I just put out a video where I love Marvel movies
So I know it's hard. It's really hard to hate a Marvel movie. Yeah in my opinion like out of I haven't seen
Oh, there's people out there who could I didn't see the second Thor I didn't see
You're good. Yeah, and I haven't seen the whole like Christopher Eccleston one. Oh like the like the ever-nor-one
I haven't seen the whole like Christopher Eccleston one. Oh, like the like the Edward or one. I haven't seen any of the Hulk movies. I think that was the only
standalone hope movie, but there was an early ban on. Yeah, yeah, I haven't seen any. Yeah, no, you're good. Okay. You're good. Everyone's
telling me the Edward one's all right. I mean, it's technically canon kind of. That's all right. I
want to rewatch all of them again now. All the Avengers movies, Iron
Man, even not three. I think there's something I would see. Yeah. Yeah, you did that the
summer video you started talking about with the, they just, oh yeah, like a similar concept of,
I was stretching one second to last an hour long with just with frame rate, but it's like
a little bit creepy.
It's too slow.
It's so slow that when I was filming it,
I was making it, I was like,
God, it would suck to be at this speed.
Yeah.
Like to get it, like to try and communicate
with someone on a normal speed,
someone figured out that it would take like 60 seconds
for one like vocal chord flap.
So you wouldn't be able to say anything.
You have to fit.
This is the video of you falling into your into like water.
Yeah, it's a pool. Okay. I saw yeah, I saw that.
And I put one up on my second channel, which is like the raw
hour. Yeah, I just put it falling into it.
I was gonna say watch that, but I skimmed through it to see
you fall into the water. I didn't watch the full hour.
I watched maybe the first minute and I was just like,
you see? Oh shit. Do you have analytics to see like if people change the playback speed on videos?
I don't know. I think you just have completion grade. Maybe. I don't know. Well, you can set
that video to like two times speed and it's still. I never thought about making the slow-mo guys videos fast.
This is too slow for me.
I don't have time for this shit.
Come on.
You know how in an editor, you can affect the speed of a clip in percentages, like in Premiere
and stuff.
And usually on Final Cut, you can drag it and stuff.
But if you just type in a number, you're like typing a thousand percent to speed it up.
But it doesn't let you type in, I think like 20,000 or something is the maximum.
Oh, they're really thinking you can't type it in. But then you can like just drag it and squish it
to be faster and the percentage will actually rise up. On that footage in that video, I could speed it
up to 300,000 percent and it was still in slow.
But that's how slow that footage was.
Well, because the nightmare the clip you filmed, it's over an hour of footage,
but it was a second, right?
Every every second of real time was one hour.
So what is that?
So every second it was a time 64 a minute, time 64 and an hour.
Time 30, 600 fact through different because they're just you falling into a pool.
Yeah, but I filmed a bunch of shit. The pool is just one clip. Yeah, that was cool though.
36. I think I'm gonna make a part too.
My favorite part was when you just start breaking the surface tension of the water.
Do just like lying on it. Yeah.
And it's just like a little splash just.
Yeah.
To make up my wallpaper on my computer. I want to take a picture to set it. I think it'd be a really interesting way to do billboards
Where you film something like that and it just looks like a picture and you could like stare at it for ages
And it was still like a picture, but then if you leave and come back, it'll be like slightly different
I said when did it change, but it was just very slow. Yeah, throw that up and Walgreens
There was I saw this video, I think it was the Air Force. Yeah, there's the Air Force tested a hypersonic sled the other day.
Oh jeez.
And I guess they had this sled on a track and it went by at 6,599 miles an hour.
That's like, was that almost Mac 10?
What is that?
Yeah, I think it was like eight or nine on the ground.
And I thought it would have been really cool.
Like I was gonna watch the video.
It'd be really cool to watch this in slow-mo.
I hope they filmed it in slow-mo.
They did the test at night.
I was like, why didn't they just do this during the day?
You know why? Because they're fucking lying.
They didn't do it. They're like, Yeah, so there is footage and it's like
You watch it. It's fucking crazy. I don't know how you did it. It sounded like you were in a different room
I thought that was a soundball Mach 8.6. Oh my god. Oh, I'm not even a single frame of it. It's just
It's an aftermath. That's a bullet at that point.
Yeah, dude.
I wonder how fast I've moved through the frame at the,
so they said they were going a mile a second.
What?
Mile a second.
If we could do that, we wouldn't even need good internet.
We would be our own internet.
Yeah, you could just get the best pie back. So far.
I like that. I'm arriving at the front door of Best Buy at six. The whole building just
goes. And guess what? We still sold out of 30 80s before you got there. Oh, yay! You could buy a hard copy of A Man in the Lost.
Oh, I've been waiting.
Oh, carry, you go a come over and watch A Man in the Lost.
I love that.
That would be a better reason to watch it than just like,
All right, time to watch this movie that I've been putting off.
We would just be shooting the shit and not paying attention.
We wouldn't be watching that movie.
It is pretty. I mean, there are some cool things that they play with science
They shrink the building down to like a carry on and they like to handle that stuff was great
I it's not I I just remember watching amann in the theaters and just coming out of it being like
Maybe Marvel's downhill now y'all I didn't like the effect. I didn't like the blurry shrink effect
Yeah, where you see it doofy so wait wouldn are you going to see it? Doofy.
So wait, wouldn't you say doofy or doofy?
Doofy.
Wouldn't the building be the same weight though?
Like how do they explain that it's got wheels?
Fuckin' idiot.
It's, oh, it's got, okay.
All right, Root and Tomatoes.
Root and Tomatoes. Root and Tomatoes. Oh, it's like Root and Tomatoes.
It was like a suitcase.
Look at the carry on.
Okay. Oh, okay, okay, I got you, I got you.
Um, I had the dumbest problem the other day.
I bought some CDs online.
I was like, why?
Hang on real quick.
Is it? What you use it?
Yeah, it's still 2021.
Oh, shit. It was like this.
This, the CDs that came out and there was no way to get them digitally.
And so I bought them all out.
I was like, they're probably like a digital code in there or something.
Like I've stopped CDs away and just like reading the digital code.
Finally got them, opened them up.
There's no digital code.
It's just CDs.
And I'm like, okay, cool.
I'll just rip these and I'll put them on my iPhone.
So I can listen whenever I want.
I don't know, a CD player.
They're, I had the only optical drive in my house was either in my PS5 or my Xbox.
And the CD's I don't think the PS4 didn't play audio CDs. I don't know if the PS5 is good. Regardless, you can't rip audio.
The PS4 wouldn't play a CD. I don't think a PS4 would play a blue ray. Like it would play games, but I don't think it played. PS4 does. Did it? The games are on a blue.
Here's a stupid thing.
PS4 will not play 4K.
That was it.
Yeah, it was only normal.
I give a PS3 around still.
I think you can rip that shit on PS3.
I do, but that's not what I did.
Okay.
You could rip shit with a PlayStation.
The virtual PS3s had, well first you could put Linux on them if your system was all
enough, but they also had the memory card slots as well. Yeah, the fat boys. So you could put it back and forth to your Vita
So I
I didn't have
I was like I fuck I don't have a CD drive for my computer, but I thought wait a minute
About seven or eight years ago. I saw this problem coming. I bought an external USB CD drive and I saved it just for this.
So I went through like my giant case of like old tech hardware
that's in my garage and I found it.
And I was like, yes, I'm finally gonna use this CD drive
that I bought plugged in.
First of all, this laptop on his USB C.
It was like a USB, oh, yeah.
So I had to find an adapter, plugged it in.
Why did the adapter was a whole?
It was a dumbest thing.
Why did the adapter took like two hours on its own?
Why did you buy CDs for music?
How do you just go to Spotify?
I'll get to that and say, okay.
Okay.
Plug the CD drive into my laptop, like yes,
I'm gonna rip these CDs.
CD drive stopped working.
At some point in the last seven days.
So I bought it to use it at some point
and I just never used it because it never worked.
Well, it's such a weird thing to pre-buy when you could get one probably same day.
Right now, is it?
And then I didn't want to buy another one because I was like, I already tried that.
I already had one.
I'm not spending another 40 bucks on a CD drive.
So then I was like, fuck what am I going to do?
Then I remembered in that same big bin of like old tech, there was an old laptop in there.
Oh my God. That had a CD drive in it still
They'll end so it's like yes, I can go get my old like windows 10 laptop
So I pulled it out and I was like well before I downloaded anything from the internet actually Windows update this and make sure it's
Curities up to date so I checked Windows update it hadn't been turned on in four and a half years
God, but it downloaded you running Windows update even on my internet took about five hours
I've been a downwind of you running windows update even on my internet took about five hours. Oh my god.
All of it.
It's a good fucking music that you're getting.
What is this?
This is like a near something.
I'm.
And then it finally works.
So they're like it took it took like two or three days all told before I could find
it.
How much money?
Uh, nothing.
Well, I guess you bought the CD thing right years ago.
Right.
I just like stuff I already had in my house.
Uh, you know, I have like a portable USB drive. Well, that wouldn't bought the CD thing years ago. Right. I just like stuff I already had in my house.
You know, I have like a portable USB drive, right?
Well, that wouldn't have been as funny.
The whole time I was like, well, this is going
to be funny on the podcast.
You know what?
And it was.
Yeah.
Do you put yourself into frustrating situations
just so it could be?
Yes.
I absolutely do.
I'll lean into them to have something to talk about.
I want to go and wrap up here in a bit. We're next week's a holiday,
just to let everyone know we're going to have to
pre-tape next week's episode at some point before then.
When we're going to move the podcast to avoid this problem?
We are at some point, but before we move the podcast,
there is something else that needs to happen first.
That's a great segue.
Gavin, you didn't even know it.
I don't even know how you got in with it.
We have an upcoming release schedule change for the podcast. First members are going to have a 24 hour exclusive window
on the podcast on Rooster Teeth.
And then after that, it'll go to the general public
the day after.
Chances are,
across the board on everything we're doing, essentially.
Yeah.
So chances are it probably won't affect you directly.
If you might not have noticed that that's what already is happening,
we're just consolidating it.
We have so many different shows that have different release schedules.
So we're just trying to consolidate everything so that everything we produce has
a 24 hour exclusive window for our first members.
You can find out more information at roosterteeth.com.
And then that's going to be happening here in a couple of weeks.
I think I think like in two weeks, three weeks, I don't know the exact date before.
What was the week of the 13th is when it starts?
It was staggered.
Some shows had a week of specificity.
Yeah, some had 24 hours, some did, some didn't.
There was also like, I think the like audio for this would come out tomorrow, like the day
after the podcast, but then it would only be available to first
numbers in video format like our kind of you see how confusing this is.
We're gonna fix that.
That's why I didn't even mention the specifics.
Yeah.
That's why I was just trying to keep it broad because it's confused.
If you try to start, you haven't thought about this ever.
It's a huge pain in the ass.
Yeah.
We're first Wednesday.
Every week.
Tuesday for first Wednesday for everyone else.
Chances are you probably won't even notice it. So we have to get through this change first Gavin. And then once we get used
to that, then we're going to fuck it up again. Yeah. And change it again. Maybe question mark.
All right. We should also probably mention before we go. Because I think it's technically next week.
So we could talk about on the next podcast we record. But last last season two is coming out on the ninth.
Yes. September 9th. And you and I were both in it. Yes. You guys were not.
No, I'd rather end. So I was going with that. I hear that there are rough cuts available.
There are. I need I need to watch it. It was it was something else. I wore the shirt. You did? This is the shirt I'm wearing in it. It was, it was something else. I wore the shirt.
You did?
This is the shirt I'm wearing in it.
It was very fun.
It was very fun.
I would, I get the giggles too.
You're gonna give some notes?
No, I just wanna watch it.
It was, it was,
I'm always curious to see how they cut down
six hours of content.
When like,
Just ask Kim, you just,
you just make it,
it's just like 20,000%.
Yeah, yeah. Because there's so much content because it's like it was 12 people and
It was traumatic stepping back into the room initially
But then I feel like having had done it once before it was like almost I knew how to prepare and pace yeah
To account for that and so it was it was I felt like mentally it was a totally different game than the first season
It also I can't say it was also mechanically very different. Yes
I think that there were a lot of notes robots a lot of new rules new cameos new games like a bunch of stuff to make it more like
To get people to engage. Yeah.
And different steaks as well.
Like it's not just smile or laugh, you're out.
Like there's other things that made the game
more interesting in that way.
The first season was super fun.
So that makes sense.
God, I have.
Man, the first season almost broke me.
Like the first season, geez.
But after the second season, everyone seemed to be.
I think people were, yeah, it wasn't.
There was something different about the second season. You'll see it soon. It's coming out
You'll also be able to see that on Ristjith first go to Ristjith calm. You'll learn all about it
But that's it. All right, we got to go ahead and wrap up right now
I want to thank everyone for watching. We'll see you again next week with a pre-taped episode
But it's still gonna be funny. I guarantee it. Who's on it? You'll find out next week. Bye! Bye!
