I'm Gus. Hi, Becca. I'm Barbara. And I'm the third person wearing stripes.
I'm the non-stripe Gus. Did y'all have like a plan? No, I think it's you weren't in on the non-plan.
Apparently. Stripe season. I feel like this happens a lot at research
youth where people wear either the same thing because people wear a merchandise a lot or just very similar kind of looks like triplet tripletting
Stripes cool
Are they not cool? Yeah, I thought like like when I was younger
I thought like they were cool. They were cool. I feel like everybody wears stripes. I don't know. Stripes. Yeah, they're back
Also, people say not to wear stripes on camera and all three of us are wearing stripes. Yep on camera
I don't care anymore. Well, they're not bad. Everything I wear was striped. They're not that Also, people say not to wear stripes on camera and all three of us are wearing stripes. Yep, on camera. I don't care anymore.
Everything I wear was striped.
They're not that thin.
A couple of weeks ago, I wore like those,
that really thin striped shirt.
I think you were on that podcast.
How do you mean,
like that?
I got that.
Cause it was so distracting.
More, what is it called?
More in.
More in.
I almost said arm-war and I was like,
that's not the right one.
That's what you put your shirts in.
That's what you put your shirts in.
Yeah.
How you doing, Gus?
I'm good. Yeah, what's good? We got, you know, what's good. Yeah. How you doing Gus? I'm good.
Yeah.
What's good?
We got what you know what's good?
We got extra life coming up this weekend.
We do.
We do.
That's good.
That's your set, Grace, so we can talk about
actual life really quick.
Yeah.
Oh, look, there it is.
Oh, wow.
It's on, ways to start on Saturday or start on Friday.
Starts on Saturday.
And 8 a.m.
8 a.m.
Go through Sunday, 8 a.m.
Yep.
I was thinking about extra life because we were talking about today and the office
and it made me think, like,
because we have like a whole schedule of things
we're gonna do and I was thinking about how
when we used to do extra life
because the company was so small,
A, we didn't have a schedule of things to do
and B, you were on a lot
and just because there's no one else to be on.
Show up.
And so you just showed up and you could be there
for hours upon hours upon hours and it was fine.
But now we like, we like actually,
you know, sketch people in and out
because we want to get,
we want to give time for people to do it
because we've got so many people here.
It is weird though because I have this weird desire
to be there as long as possible.
Like even if I'm exhausted and I'm not even contributing to be there as long as possible.
Like, even if I'm exhausted
and I'm not even contributing to whatever segment
is happening, I just wanna be there
because it's such a fomo if you're not there.
I think that's also reminiscent of old extra life
when we used to, that was the thing
that became a thing of how long could you be there
and what's gonna happen, that kind of thing.
Because you had to.
Yeah.
And now, yeah, but I like a mixed feeling of like the FOMO and just like I don't have the stamina to be
I'm old. Yeah, hello. My name is John and I'm old that happens and though they were shout out to the
Community streams this past weekend raised over a hundred thousand dollars. That was surprising amount of money here
They raised that's insane. And also amazing.
$1,000.
They raised $1,000,000.
$100,000.
$100,000.
$100,000.
$100,000.
$100,000.
But have we publicly said what our goal for this year is?
$100,000.
$100,000.
Everyone, start donating now.
Start tweeting Elon Musk immediately.
He can get him and Bezos and we're fine.
And Bill Gates, the trifecta.
Yeah.
Get all our Billionaire boys on the...
Did you get that clip?
I don't know if this is a recent clip or not.
I just stumbled upon it on YouTube.
It's a clip of Bill Gates on the Ellen DeGeneres show.
And they're playing a game where he has to guess the price
of common grocery store items.
Oh God.
It was like, I mean, it's what you expect.
Because I'm sure he doesn't do his own grocery shopping
or know what anything costs.
So like, they pulled out that giant thing of pod,
tide pods, I think I'll say pod tides.
Pod tides.
That's pod tides.
No, a part tides.
And then like how much do you think this is?
And it's like a big one,
it probably has like four to your 50 packs
and then he's like, four dollars.
And the whole audience goes,
no, no, no.
Detertive expenses. Expensive, especially tight. $4 and the whole audience goes, no, no, no. No.
Detertive expenses.
Expensive, specially tied.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's so tasty.
No, not, no one do that.
No.
Fodhads.
I have a question for Gus that you just
may be thinking of, if you.
$5.
$1, Bob.
No.
Got to come up with a question that
goes really well with that answer. No. Got it. Come on.
We're the question that goes for the well with that answer.
No, it's going to say you're talking about Bill Gates as at a wealth level that you would
assume he has a lot of people he pays to just do stuff for him.
Or just like if he does do grocery shopping, he probably puts stuff in his cart and doesn't
think about it.
Yeah, I don't think that's a completely unrealistic thing to think that he would have
assistance that would take care of stuff for him.
We're not even at this point, you get like,
Instacars or something.
Yeah, online shopping.
Or something.
But then you still have to sit down and
bill your Instacars.
Yeah, but if you're a billionaire,
I'm sure you don't look at the fucking totally
like detergent, the first one.
I would imagine he, like, if I was at that level,
because grocery shopping is probably one of my least
favorite things to do, I would probably just like
pay someone to stock my fridge
and it's like, I wanna have this meal this week.
So like get the stuff I need for that.
That best, yeah.
Now I'm thinking about being rich enough that when you go
shopping, you sort by highest to lowest in price.
That can only buy the most expensive in each category.
I've never fucking done that.
I've never done that in my life.
I have never ever, ever sorted anything
I'm shopping by the highest.
I'm gonna go to Amazon right now
and I'm gonna do a search for detergent.
I'm gonna find one of those weird listings
where it's like $17,000 detergent.
Oh my God.
One left.
It's made of gold.
I'm made of the tears of nuns.
What?
I hear those are very expensive.
The whisk deep cleaning deter target original 33 loads
$4,107.86 probably like discontinued
why?
well Amazon has a weird pricing algorithm where things that are in high demand
they keep raising the price until people stop buying them
liquid laundry detergent 55 gallons from 2048 dollars 55 gallon drum
well 55 gallons from here to two thousand forty eight dollars 55 gallon drum Well, I was like something you can do something with that
five-gallon drum
Yeah, how about the whole the mistakes we make that weekend with all that like that typical big old blue like I think that's
Like the breaking bad body
That's that's all I can think of was the breaking bad drum
that you dissolve people in.
Exactly.
How big is that?
I think that's the 55.
Is that 55?
That's the 55 gone drum, yeah.
Just you going out with a cup.
Get that little scoop that comes.
You get that little cap, you're like,
boop, that much.
That'd be great.
You're a lifetime supply.
You're set.
It's like for the next 10 years,
I got my detergent down.
It is going to suck if you get down to the bottom though.
You've got to let it take your time and soften it out.
You've got to have a spot for your washer, your dryer,
and your detergent.
I detergent barrel.
And then the one you dissolve, people you've killed.
Yeah.
You got to have all those barrels.
That's it.
Speaking of which, have you guys seen
making our murderers season two? I haven't yet.
We started it.
I haven't used.
It didn't.
Up because there's too many things to watch.
You don't want to make a murder?
I have to, they're going to make me a murder.
That first season is entertaining.
The second season turns you into a murder.
No, there's too many things to watch
and I have to just say no to stuff.
But the season one was so good.
I know, but then I could just leave it as this season
that was great.
And I'm.
Well, it's a totally different narrative.
Right.
It's about the legal system.
I'm I'm I'm
it goes deeper into the case.
I don't want to give too much away.
That's not afraid.
Is I'm afraid that I'm not going to like season two
as much as I like season one?
What do you think about it so far?
I I will I finish it. I'm afraid that I'm not going to like season two as much as I like season one. What do you think about it so far? I will.
I finished it.
I loved it.
There's a new lawyer that took up Stephen's case named Kathleen Zelner, who just listening
to her speak and talk about the case and investigate certain aspects of it to things
that like, I don't know how they missed this, how they didn't discuss this, how this wasn't
even brought up in court.
It's just very fascinating.
She's very smart and very well spoken,
and that makes it very entertaining.
And that's her thing, right?
Like getting, she's gotten, I think, 15 cases overturned,
15 guilty cases.
She's gotten 15 criminals off.
Probably more than that.
But how much did she pay for a detergent?
That's what I want to know.
$4.
Now, it's just too much to watch.
There's a lot. I feel bad. And making a murder was great, That's what I want to know. $4. Now, it's just too much to watch.
There's a lot.
I feel bad.
And making a murder was great.
And I'm going to move on to other great things.
And I'm good with that.
But it's the thing about making a murderer
and why I feel like everyone who watches and watches
and watches and two is because you are invested, I imagine.
Not anymore.
At all.
Did you have strong opinions?
I had some strong opinions after season.
At the time, yeah.
You'll have even stronger opinions after season. You will have, you will have even stronger opinions
after season two.
To a point where like you, like I feel like I know
who did it so strongly.
And it angers me that this person is not being.
Do you know what was a super disappointing season two
of something that was along the same genre
with serial?
Oh yeah.
Did anybody listen?
You mean, S town? Shit town was good. S town was serial. Oh yeah. Did anybody listen? You mean, S-town?
Shit town was good.
S-town was good.
No, there was...
It wasn't S-town the season.
S-town was another thing that was,
I think it was just produced by this American life
or something like that.
Yeah, I think.
It might have been connected some other way.
Serial had a second season.
It's actually got a third season now.
Well, the third season's kind of interesting.
The third season I hear is interesting.
I actually downloaded it, but I didn't listen to it.
I started listening to it.
I didn't actually.
What was the crime in the second season?
It was some military crime, wasn't it?
Oh, yeah.
It was so boring.
I hated it.
The first one I couldn't stop listening to the...
That was about the teenager annund.
Yeah.
I ate it or something.
Yeah, see you remember the name.
And it was so good.
And the second one has just like, wow, I really hate this.
I'm not going to listen anymore.
I like the third season though. Have you listened to really hate this. I'm not gonna let this anymore.
I like the third season though.
Have you listened to any of the?
To Eston?
Oh, sorry.
No, Eston is not serial.
It was, it is conducted.
There's not, anyway, same production.
It wasn't the same person?
No, because it was a girl that did that.
I think it started out maybe possibly going to.
Eston, podcast, and you podcast from serial
in this American life.
It's, it's, it's, it's just made by the this American life. It's, it's just made by the same people.
It's distributed by the same people.
Well, I love this stuff.
Oh, that sounds good.
Let me tell you.
It's tragic.
Sort of listen to season three sometimes.
Like, because it's, you know, it's up serial.
We're now on a podcast talking about podcast.
And I'm fine with that, because I just discovered Hank
in his, I'm just escaping me, I just discovered Hank in his,
I'm just escaping me, his wife's name, Hank,
and something green.
What's her name?
Hank and Mrs. Green.
Yeah, they have a podcast called Delete This.
I didn't know what it was,
but I love listening to John and Hank Green.
They're just guys I like to listen to.
They're knowledgeable and fantastic and charming and great.
But this is him and his wife.
Fuck, why am I being such a bad person?
I can't remember.
You want mine to look it up?
Yeah, please do that so I can not be an asshole.
And Katherine, Hank and Katherine, great.
Katherine.
Oh!
Okay.
Oh.
They go through, so he's like internet famous,
has like 750,000 followers on Twitter.
She's not at all, she's not in a person at all,
but it's done some project with him.
They go through his tweets from the last week
and comment on them.
And Hank is just fun, let's do it.
And she's just also this dry person
that also has great opinions on stuff.
And it's really fun to listen to them go through
their tweets from the last week.
I would imagine if you do a podcast about your tweets
every week, that would influence
how you tweet.
Oh yeah.
Possibly, but it was just depressing.
I don't want to do that.
Yeah.
And I guess it also depends on how you use Twitter.
And so it hasn't made any sort of impact on how the episodes have felt thus far.
Okay.
I'm sure I mean, they've done like 60 episodes, so it might change throughout the whole
show, but so far, it's just them going through and like I think it's different with him
It like I don't know he keep him talking it through this wife is a different kind of a scenario than you would with like someone else
Yeah, it's it's delightful and I love to have podcasts to turn I listen to podcasts almost all day long when I'm cooking when I'm driving
Anything like that?
Cook a lot huh?
You must cook a lot. He does cook a lot.
I do, I do.
I cooked a lot yesterday, because I do meal prep.
He cooks exactly 100% more than I do.
What's the last meal you cooked?
Let's play a game.
What's the last meal you cooked?
Does heating up pizza in the oven count?
Well, what state was the pizza?
It was frozen?
Was it frozen?
It was frozen.
No, no, it was take pizza? It was frozen. Was it frozen? It was frozen.
No, no, it was take out from the day before.
That's email.
No, no.
No, something, let's define it as you had to actually
combine ingredients and then apply heat.
You have to apply heat.
What about a salad?
Is that cooking?
Meal preparation is fine.
Yeah, I'd say combining a salad.
Combining all my Terence are gonna be so disappointed
in the video.
I can't, does the count,
should I ever made it for me?
I made it for you.
What about a sandwich?
I mean, I make sandwiches all the time.
Oh, I make myself breakfast pretty much every week.
What's the last breakfast you made yourself?
It was scrambled eggs, toast, and turkey bacon.
That's cooking.
When was that?
Last weekend.
Last weekend?
You haven't made yourself breakfast for an entire week?
Yeah, yeah, because this week I went for brunch one day.
And then what did I do the other day?
Wow.
Yeah, I'm fucking lazy.
Are you Elon Musk?
Are you so rich?
You got other people making it from three.
$2,000 for $4.
When's the last meal you cooked? Uh, last night, I made...
Damn it.
She already beat you.
I made like gourmet vegan hot dogs.
Gourmet, what made them gourmet?
Like, filed roast, you know?
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
You didn't make like the hot dogs from scratch, no?
No.
Like, you like with the blood, with the pitting and stuff.
So I did that, I like, like, I didn't grill them.
You're okay. And they're like vegan, brought, and stuff. So I did that, I like, like, grilled them. Okay.
And they're like vegan, brought worst type stuff.
That sounds really good right now.
And I need dinner.
And some like, artisan bread.
And then a...
He's the little bread.
I saw Tade's spinach.
That's great.
That's spinach.
Sorry, asparagus.
The other green thing, yeah.
So dinner, dinner last night is the time to beat.
Gus?
That's not a fair question for me.
My house has been under construction for six months.
So I have to have something.
What do you do for food?
Eating out every meal.
I'm in.
That was my life.
I tried to get it out for like every
renovation's almost done.
I'll be cooking again.
Yeah.
You Esther who cooked last.
It's been a long time, man.
Probably I would say 99% probably, Esther.
What?
Oh, hello.
Your phone is ringing on your watch.
That number looks familiar,
but I'm not going to answer that right now.
Sorry, it's a spoofing, you're a number.
I hate that.
No, it's not.
I hate that shit.
Probably, probably my wife.
Do you wish you did more cooking
or like that you had the opportunity to do more cooking
because of your housing situation? you don't you not care.
Oh, no, I like cooking.
I would much rather prefer to eat at home.
I think it's a lot better.
That's going to be a new year's resolution of mine to cook more in the coming year.
If you need help, let me know.
I do.
Well, I actually proposition, John.
You did.
I was just saying it sounds crazy.
I turned her down.
Because John is very good at the foods. I'm very good at the foods. Hi, my name is John. I'm very good it sounds crazy. I turned her down. Because John is very good at the foods.
I'm very good at the foods.
Hi, my name is John.
I'm very good at the foods.
John Foodmer.
He knows what to make for healthy eating, you know, like how to balance all your fucking
numbers.
I want you to know what's the word for for all those things.
Your macros?
Macros.
Macros.
I don't know shit about that.
All I know is calories and calories.
Name the three macros.
Fat.
Yeah. Protein. Missed our help. Protein. What's the last one? Shit about that, all I know is calories and calories outside. Name the three macros. Fat?
Yeah.
Protein?
Niz start health.
Protein.
What's the last one?
Easy.
Carps?
Yeah.
Okay.
So I said to John, I said, I'm really shit at cooking.
But I do spend money on eating out a lot.
So why don't instead of doing that, I just spend money on you buying the groceries
for me and making the food for me. You know what? Actually, I said, I don't think I said
no other thing at the time, but now because of how I meal prep the way I do, I really am
making like just bulk protein and bulk carbs and veggies and that kind of thing. Like I
legitimately could bring you a box lunch most days of the week. Because that's what I eat.
I'd say,
what would you charge for that?
Okay, so I was gonna say you were talking about this earlier.
Yeah, I'd have to calculate the food cost
and then do it upself in there.
Why don't you let me know?
Okay, I can tell you do it.
I even have,
oh, one of my favorite things I've ever bought as an adult
is Amazon has these meal prep little bins,
little like a bento boxes that have like one big slot
and then two little ones and I put my protein
and then my little veggies and my rice.
And you know, it's great, I love it.
I have like a dozen of them, it's fantastic.
Is it bento?
Do they make?
It might have been, I don't remember, bottom's so long ago
and they're like machine washable and everything.
You can microwave them.
I have the kid version of them and I love them.
It's fantastic.
I like anything that has compartments like that.
Hell yeah, yeah.
That's, that would make me meal prep.
If I had compartmental...
But if you had like a school lunch tray,
they just had like the lid over it,
with like all the different little compartments,
you could like store it really separately.
I come into Barb's office and like, okay, okay.
I missed the lunch trays.
I came from the last time I had out of a lunch tray.
I missed the lunch,
they still use those in schools?
You could get them again.
You should go to prison.
There you go.
There you go.
Are they made out of metal in prison?
Yeah, they're even more durable.
They're polyplastic.
Can we talk about Whitey Bulger?
He died.
He died.
Who speaking of prison?
He died.
He was a very famous Bob.
He was a very famous Bob.
He was a very famous Bob.
No, Bob Duton in Boston.
And he was an FBI informant for a period of time.
And then he ended up going to jail.
And they transferred him recently to a new prison in West Virginia.
And he was dead within 24 hours.
How they beat him with locks and a sock.
I guess like other mob hitmen in prison.
They tried to cut out his tongue,
which is what they do to snitches.
Oh.
So they did.
He was also 83 years old at this point.
Oh, yeah.
So one hit to the head and he was probably.
Yeah, he was also in a wheelchair.
And he was transferred because he exposed himself to,
or someone.
No, no way.
He masturbated in front of people.
He took it, he next level.
He had been transferred numerous times since he'd been
incarcerated.
I think he'd been like five or six different.
How long maybe any, had he been in prison?
Uh, was it, was it, was it in that one?
2010, I think, oh, he also ran.
He hid and they found him living in California under an alias.
And they finally caught him, take a minute.
I think it was 2010.
So, like that?
21?
Yeah, eight, nine years ago.
So not that long.
Yeah.
So, less than 24. So not that long. Yeah.
So less than 24 hours and he was dead.
How did they, like, they had, they, they either knew he was coming.
I'm sure they knew he was coming.
And there's also, okay, so I read it.
Like he arrived at something like 9 p.m.
And lockdown for the night was already happening.
But there is a three hour window between 5 a.m. and 8 a.m. Where they can go out of their cells and like do their morning routine and they have to show up for breakfast
I think at 8. So there's a three hour open window there where they were able to do whatever they wanted.
So it wasn't even 24 hours. It was like 12. Yeah
Yikes Jesus
I don't want to go to prison. Mm-hmm. Just put me down for I don't want to go to prison
They just made me think about that scene and breaking bad
where they have to orchestrate all of the
with all.
Yeah, that is an amazing episode.
That's the like operatic music as well.
Oh, that yeah, that's one of my favorite episodes of breaking bad.
Like they coordinated like 12.
Was it to something that love is blue?
Was that the sign they remember?
And like they said the taking of the cloth.
Yeah, like you would all within a minute or two.
Now reference breaking bad twice as episode of the bike.
All right, the barrel.
Oh, the barrel.
The great show.
My parents finally watched it.
I've been telling them for years to watch it.
And they just now finally finished it.
So really are they constantly saying like breaking bad references now?
Like I have the one who knocks.
Like it's like, no, it's it's sold.
Yeah, it's over.
And there are things that I just don't even remember that
they're referencing and I'm like yeah good episode. It's really old right like
2010. No, when was when did it end like 2014? 14, but when did it start?
2000 6, 7 seasons wasn't it? Five seasons the fifth season was split I think.
So oh nine maybe?
Because I only started watching it
because you guys talked about on the podcast
and that was before I worked at Rooster Teeth.
And then, yeah.
So I started watching it after I got here,
but because you guys, I started watching it
because Shannon had a part in it.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
He was, he was a drugie.
I saw Shannon at HB the other day, he didn't see me.
He was like dumping big sheet of plastic and a recycling thing outside at HB the other day, he didn't see me. He was like dumping big sheet of plastic
and a recycling thing outside of HB.
And I had this moment where I was like,
do I wanna say hi?
Cause I would be like embarrassed
if someone saw me doing this.
So I just walked off.
So instead you told the whole podcast.
Yes.
What were you doing Shannon?
He was his drum plastic, yet to dispose of it.
I ran into him at a coffee shop a couple of days ago.
It was like one of those weird things
where I was using my phone and I didn't see him come in.
And the next day I knew like he was in line
a little behind me.
It was like awkward like, oh, hey,
there he is.
That's him and breaking bad.
I mean, that's him at HEB.
Yeah.
Take it.
Take it. Man, there was a, so like right now, we're, you know, obviously we taped this, if you're watching the slide, HB. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So like right now, we're, you know, obviously we taped this, if you're watching the slide,
you know, we taped this Monday's, you know, the election, big election tomorrow.
Everyone's been talking about it nonstop.
As they should.
For weeks and maybe months and I was just saying vote, don't forget, it's early voting.
If you miss early voting, you can vote on Tuesday.
Some say you could register the day of voting.
I think I saw Montana.
You can register day of California.
So like the messaging's definitely been out there.
And over the weekend, I saw someone put the Austin subreddit is snarky.
No mean.
Yeah, it's intimidating.
And like Austin, we're in reddit. If you are people not mean, someone like what it means. It's intimidating. And like Austin, we're
in Reddit. If he are people not mean, I'd like to visit there.
Someone made a post on the Austin subreddit over the weekend that said,
Hey, I'm going to be out of town on Tuesday. I was wondering, can I
vote in another town in Texas, even though I'm registered here in
Austin? Oh, man.
No, people had a fucking field day in that thread.
There's just people who are braiding him
for not having voted for the past two weeks.
Why post it in the subreddit?
Like that's just not gonna end well no matter what.
That's like posting it like in something like Yahoo Answers
or something, even worse.
Redd is even worse.
We're just like calling him names.
I was like, man, this poor guy just wanted to vote.
Just trying to vote. Like yes, he he should probably should have done early voting.
Yeah, he's so, no, you can't, you have to vote in your home district on election day, at least
in Texas. I don't know about other states. There were two weeks to get it done. I felt bad this
morning because we had our all hands meeting and we were asking everyone if people have voted and
like most of the company
put their hands up, which was awesome to see.
And I was just like sitting there with my hand down
because I can't vote in the US because I'm not a citizen.
There'll be a lot worse if you put your hand up.
Yeah, yeah.
So part of me was like, does anybody need a ride on Tuesday?
Because I want to contribute to this somehow.
So if anybody here needs a ride to the polls on Tuesday,
let me know.
I want to help.
Yeah.
But it's a so yeah, by the time you're watching this on YouTube,
the election results are well,
have a new president.
Yes, that's that's the way it works.
It's very exciting.
We'll have a new president tomorrow.
That's really cool tomorrow.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, I'll be glad. Like I'm getting so many phone calls and so many texts
from different like political groups.
Like I support this group, support that group.
So then I got right before we started,
I got a text from a phone number.
So I'm just gonna read the text I got.
Choose Republican judges who are highly qualified,
respected, and have the right experience.
Vote blank, blank, blank, and blank
for the third court of appeals.
And there's a Vimeo link attached in the SMS message.
And I was like, oh, a Vimeo link, I'm gonna look this up.
So presumably they spam this to like every phone number
that they have in their database.
Who knows how the fuck they got my phone number, right? I was pissed about I just I think I just replied unsubscribe
so I decided I'm gonna look so I looked at the Vimeo link it was uploaded three days ago
and it has 36 views. Oh I love that. I don't know that. No I mean I probably like 36 people actually
clicked on it. Did you make it 37? I probably did. What was the video?
Oh, it's just like a commercial.
Oh, okay.
It's the cat, I do.
Yeah.
That would make me watch it.
It's a mess message.
But it's just been non-stop my phone's entering
from both sides.
It's not like one side more than it's like,
both sides are just like,
badgering my phone's non-stop
to try to get me to go out and vote.
I already did it.
I wish I could see like, I already voted.
It's done.
I did. I replied. I was like, I already voted. It's done. I did.
I replied.
I was like, I already voted.
Now I'm getting ones that are like,
help us canvas for this politician that you voted for.
Get out on the streets.
I'm like, no.
Yeah, I've had some that are like, vote for so and so.
I was replied like, I don't live in that district.
I hope you're candid.
It loses.
You're outgoing message would be like, yeah, you've reached Gus Rolla.
I'm not here.
Leave a message by the way.
I've already voted.
So fuck off.
Go away.
I'm done bothering me next year.
No, but I do agree that people should still relay the message to vote and to register
to vote and go vote and stuff.
Even if you're reading it and you've already voted or you've already done that, I think
it's still important to spread that awareness because the more you remind people,
the more it becomes something that people...
Marryals know you're a great job.
Marryl and Jack especially too.
Wait, wait, wait.
When did you leave Canada?
I left Canada in 2011.
How old were you?
22.
Okay, so you had voted then in Canada.
In Canada.
Okay.
So they're worth like 0.8 America.
But also now I can't vote in Canada anymore
because I'm a non-resident.
So you can't vote anywhere.
Right.
You don't matter.
It's the, you're a, you're a penny doesn't matter.
What does it take to, I guess you have to be a citizen.
You'd have to have gone through the process
to be a citizen to vote in the United States.
Yeah.
Which I don't know if all of her do or not
depends on where my life takes me. I've lived in the next couple of years and how I feel about the situation Yeah, yeah, which I don't know if all over do or not
depends on where my life takes me the next couple of years and how I feel about the situation because I don't know what what happens
with my Canadian citizenship if I become an American citizen. I don't know. Yeah
My neighbors and friends recently became Fulblin citizens. They're English
They were green card holders for a really long time
And finally became citizens so they could vote in the last election.
And I'm pretty sure they're still English citizens.
Yeah, yeah.
Just to tell you the truth.
I think that very, that very country
about country though, I think.
Yeah, like I know some, I don't know if it's true or not,
but some countries make you choose.
If you are like become dual citizen, make you choose.
Yeah, like I think Mexico does not allow.
Like could be wrong, please chat, correct me if I'm wrong, I think Mexico does not allow. That could be wrong.
Please chat, correct me if I'm wrong.
I think Mexico does not allow dual citizenship.
I think you have to choose.
I think same with the Philippines.
I think my mother-in-law had to choose when she was 18.
Yeah, I would have loved to maintain my ability
to vote in Canada, but in order when I moved to the US,
if I stayed a resident of Canada,
I would have to pay taxes in Canada on my US income
as well as US taxes.
Whoa, dang!
So I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna go ahead
and become a non-resident.
That's a lot.
Yeah, that's a lot.
Well, I'm money.
Double taxes.
That's my nightmare.
Go.
Oh, I'm gonna read something here.
Okay, you read something.

I knew the response tonight, so I pulled my
My report back up just to look at it again and I am
45.3% East Asian and Native American,
41.1% European,
and 6.6% sub-Saharan African.
I'm a, I'm a, I'm global.
Oye, y si este fin de vamos a las piestas de mi pueblo,
¿qué dice? Pero si tu pueblo está en Mordor.
Nada, está don Mirández, lo tenemos chopá.
Primero cojamos un tren a Zaragoza.
Después cojamos un bus a esta calatalla.
No te lees.
Este verano viaja de puerta, puerta y sin complicaciones con Blá Blacar.
Siempre encontrarás una cercana, incluso a última hora.
Gracias, va tu próximo viaje.
¡Ya!
Blá Blacar, blá Blacar, blá Blá Blá Blá.
¡You're a lot!
So, I was looking at mine earlier today, too, coincidentally.
Just because you did it every once in a while.
Yeah, just...
I like to remember how white and boring I am.
I'm like, you white and boring I am. Like I'm like you know 98%
European, but I am sub-Saharan African and Native American in there too, which I kind of like my
families from the Canary Islands originally, but like way way way back, but with really cool you don't
have this and like your children won't do it. But mother to daughter, you pass along the maternal haplogroup. And mine remains unchanged
from the time in Africa. So my maternal haplogroup is something that's like only found in West Africa.
Right. Wow. Pretty crazy. Even though I'm like super European. You probably other than my,
I'm 99.9% European, which is probably someone to you, but 98.7 of that is Ashkenazi Jewish.
Oh, I have some of that guy.
Really?
Super Jewish.
I am very, I'm 2.4%.
Wow.
So you're the other.
So you're the remaining percent of her Jewishness.
Yeah.
Man.
You stole it.
But the biggest number by far is Native American 43.1%.
I've only got around. I'm global. I'm a global person.
What's this? Another world. So, so is where sluts?
Yes.
I've left our way around the world.
And you cover that a lot in your documentary of a house slut of your family.
It was like, it's this whole weird subgenre we talk about.
But no, it was really cool that documentary's out now.
I feel like people, it's been pretty well received so far.
I just opened up, I thought I'd close my chat and I reopened it in a different episode.
Documentaries, I thought it was received really well.
It's just like people really like it.
It's, yeah, there it is.
It's free, you don't have to be a first member. You can watch it through November 8th.
Share it with your friends.
Share it with your friends.
Share it with your friends.
I think it turned out pretty well. It was a, so when we
undertook the documentary, it's like, we had this one idea of how the narrative was going to go.
And then as we filmed, like, we kind of changed direction a bit. You know, when we first started,
it was definitely a lot more broad in scope
and talking about the issue in general.
And I guess just like, a story's kept coming up.
It's like, oh, let's focus more and more
on my individual story, which is why we had like that
separate vignette with like a bunch of different
Ruchis employees who were immigrants
or who also came from overseas.
And we didn't want to like not use that footage.
Like people sat down for interviews.
So that's why we put out that little short vignette.
I think the vignettes really nice because you can see
how many people, even just at Rochita Lone,
have come from different countries
or our families, people from different countries.
And just like how it's kind of a very important part
of America's composition and like just the workforce
and creative minds
and everything like that.
Yeah, I thought that was really cool.
Yeah, but it was a great experience to film that and it would travel a lot.
I passed through your old hometown at one point when we were driving around through the
border.
Yeah, because you grew up like 50 miles from the border or so.
Yeah.
50 miles?
Yeah, like 40.
I took a summer class in Eagle Pass when summer and I drove to Eagle Pass every
morning and I got it to where I can make it in 30 minutes.
It's 42 miles, I think.
Damn.
Yeah, I'm biased.
Mm-hmm.
Go moving fast.
Uh, so you have a documentary essentially about, I've asked what your life's to the next
step is to get a biopic made about you.
So who's going to play you in your biopic?
It's a biopic bio Edward James almost.
So Edward James.
Yes. Who would play you in a movie?
Keanu Reeves. Yeah. That just would just wishful thinking.
It would just ensure that if they had needed me on set to like help with the movie, I'd get to meet Keanu Reeves
with essentially life goals at this point.
Yeah.
He's perfect.
I would have said Johnny Depp for you.
No, yeah.
Fuck him.
Why?
Maybe Skit Ulrich give his career.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I get down with it.
Skit Ulrich, that's perfect.
I want him.
Make it happen.
Guess it'll be one of the Hemsworth obviously.
What if we went the Mr. Mugorium's wonder important?
No, yes.
What was the one that Heath Ledger didn't he died in?
That one, that one.
Okay, that one.
What's the one with the guy owned the toy store that was magical?
Toys.
Something imaginary.
Um, toy store.
It has a Terry.
Dr. Park Sanium, imaginary.
It's close.
Uh, but they said fantastic beast.
I died while making that.
Multiple played his character.
So we could have skewed for part of my bio pick. Dr. Parsanium, Imaginarium. It's close. But they said the- Fantastic beast, my friend.
Died while making that.
Multiple players play this character,
so we could have Skeet for part of my bio-pick.
And then we do Keanu.
And then Kate Winslet will do the end part.
There you go.
I like that.
What about you, too?
Who do you want playing you in your bio-pick?
Hmm.
Mine's the same mentality as John's.
I would choose him so I would get to meet them.
Um, Margot Robbie, or Blake Lively.
This pretty.
I have major girl crushes on them.
And they're blonde, so you know, there you go.
They could be me.
Hmm.
I don't know.
I don't know what celebrities I want to hang out with.
Except the game that I've made now, your biopic is just like.
Except for the Tigen. I learned that's how it's pronounced.
Yeah, but she even says that she says it wrong.
Yeah, apparently it's Tigen. She made a tweet about it and blew the internet's mind.
My God. But that would be weird if she played me. No resemblance at all.
Ariana Grande is said wrong to it's granny
What she said it in it she said it in a review. Oh, I heard that like a radio interview. I was like no, I'm not gonna say that
It's like Rosie Perez. No, no, it's not
Do you guys hear Ariana Grande's new song? No, thank you next no
I listen to the same music. I was new as an ice it's a very good competitor for Mamba number five. Let me tell you.
Oh, no.
I hated Mamba number five.
No, it was just, it's a joke because she names a bunch of guys.
She used to date.
I was not in on that joke.
Yeah.
I'm not up on the Ariana Grande.
I can't even hear you say it.
The Grande.
It sounds like someone say like Pokemon's or who's like.
I met someone at a convention recently
who legitimately said Pokemans.
They're just like, yeah, there's a bunch of kids out here
who are looking for Pokemans.
I'm not really a fan of Pokemans,
but Pikachu's pretty cute.
And I had a cousin who watched Pokemans growing up.
I think that's intentional at that point.
I don't know.
This guy was just saying it over and over in a way
where he was, this is just how he said it.
What if he just did it to get attention?
It was just me and him talking. He wants attention. Yeah, he wants attention. He wants attention from you
Just speaking of Pokemans is a good community day this weekend
So I look forward to seeing you guys all out there getting your syndicules
Really? Huh? I need lots of damn I don't have to be here for all of extra life
I'm gonna be here from a godemic Pokemoning and then I'm gonna be here in a minute who spot?
It's actually happens a little bit during the event, but I'll make it work extra life. I'm gonna be here for my godimic Pokemoning and then I'm gonna be here and I'm gonna do Who Spot.
It actually happens a little bit during the event,
but I'll make it work.
Okay.
I'm glad you guys are bringing that Who Spot.
That was one of my favorite segments last year.
We do Who Spot, which even today in the office,
while Jack was bringing that up,
he perpetuated the joke that I don't like Who Spot
is anywhere on the spot.
Like he's like, call it out and he's like, yes, John, you have to do it.
It's like, I like doing it. It's fun. I get to laugh the entire time.
Then why are you so sad? I don't know. I don't know.
What Pokemon would play you in your biopic?
The Pokemon that would play me in my biopic is actually a.
Is it you clipped it?
There's a professor looks a lot like me.
He's got like long hair and he's like slender.
Johnny Depp.
Yeah, professor, I hate you.
Professor Oak.
It's not Oak.
Oh, it's name another one.
Professor Maple.
Oh, they're all tree names.
Oh, really?
I said Professor Maple is a joke, but is that a real one?
I don't think there's a.
Professor Pine.
No, no, Professor Rubber. The skill. Rubber? Rubber is a joke, but is that a real one? I don't think there's a real one. Professor Pine. No, no. Professor Rubber.
That's Rubber?
Rubber's a tree.
Ah.
Professor Cork.
Christmas.
The Pokemon that I want, did it, did it with me,
because that needs to be where we want.
Professor Christmas?
It's a type of tree.
I like that.
It's a very festive Pokemon.
I want to meet professional questioners.
Okay, so this is really silly and I really want the internet to help me with this.
A new Pokemon game is coming out on the Switch.
Pokemon, let's go.
EV and Pikachu.
Pokemon.
Pokemon.
Pokemon.
It comes out on like the 16th.
Let's just say it's around the 15 or 60.
Today is the 5th.
We're 10 days away from this release,
and there's a switch bundle,
that's like a special edition Pokemon switch,
that you can get a Pikachu one or an EV one.
It hasn't been out on pre sale yet.
It's not even, you can't order it anywhere.
Like it was out for two seconds, and then it went away,
and it hasn't been out for, like,
is that, that's not normal, right Gus?
My, my, my game boy.
Huh.
Yeah, I would say no, but it's Nintendo.
They kind of do whatever the fuck they want.
They just talk about their own rules, the game.
You can still, you can pre-order the game.
Yeah, I think fuck you, you're gonna buy it anyway.
Is that the one that sinks with Pokemon Go on your phone?
Yeah.
And you have to, you have to do a trade
to get like a special Pokemon and Pokemon go called Melton.
That's my end of my Pokemon.
Thank you very much.
I appreciate you guys coming to Pokemon corner with John.
I look at a Pokemon.
Now back to your regular schedule.
Oh, no.
Do we have the graphic ready?
No, this stat can't be a thing because I already do it too much on glitch please and I'm
sure people hate it.
So I'm gonna stop talking about Pokemon.
I already met you on Amazon.
Yeah, it's and you can it's there and you can sign up to be notified when it's available, but I just
think it's we're cutting it really close and I really like to have that. It's crazy how
that game Pokemon go left like it became a huge thing and then it kind of dwindled down for a while
and then it came back like full force. Yeah, we did that like the thing where we went into the parking
on the store. That was like two and a half years ago. That was when it first came out.
It came out right like in early July two years ago.
It was so long ago that parking lot doesn't exist anymore.
It's a house.
It's funny.
That's true.
Is the gym is still there?
That was the driving theater and it's still
the driving theater.
They got to go, yeah, they're not done with it yet.
It's a giant building.
I guess it's going to be apartments.
Yeah.
But yeah, they like, it was like super crazy and giant building. I guess it's going to be apartments. Yeah.
But yeah, they like it was like super crazy and everything like that. And then people got tired of it. And then their team did a really good job of like creating all these community things and
these special events that re instilled people wanted to play the game. Yeah. And also things like
coming out with the next gins of stuff and a whole new set of Pokemon for you get. And if you're
that kind of person that's all about the collecting aspect of it, it's gonna it's gonna pick it. Someone someone in chat re-Uriah. Sorry, I don't know how to say your name.
Says John go to go to GameStop and you can pre-order in the store. So I had to go in the store.
I was just how analog weekend. Why did I look in? I actually walked into a GameStop to see if they
had like I don't know I thought they might have like a spot on the shelves. I don't know.
I'm going by.
I probably could have easily gone to call, call one and ask them before you go.
I was at the mall this weekend and there was a Santa there for photos.
Mm hmm.
There was a wait.
That was it was already November at least.
Yes.
I saw a big old Christmas tree.
And I was like, well, that's a bit much.
I know the barber Christmas. Yeah. I remember that song from Nightmare for Christmas. I saw a big ol' Christmas tree. And I was like, well, that's a bit much. I'm sorry, you know, the snobar were Christmas.
Yeah, I remember that song from Nightmare for Christmas.
So it's like,
it's like killing for a nightmare for Christmas stripes.
Is Nightmare for Christmas a Christmas movie?
Or Halloween movie?
That's a debate.
Christmas.
I was at home yesterday and they had an inflatable Jack
Skellington Justice Santa as As a Christmas. We should.
Can we make a poll? Oh,
yeah,
I'm feeling cool.
Is nightmare before Christmas,
nor Christmas,
but the whole hallway gets asked and I want to know everybody's answer.
I said Christmas Christmas.
What the movie? Yeah.
I'm going to go Halloween.
I'm going to say Christmas because if in my my mind it focuses more on Christmas.
It's a Christmas movie because the movie starts on Halloween, but then the rest of the movies all about leading up to Christmas.
But also don't want our answers to affect your answers.
I don't think my opinion is ever affected any physical ever.
It's affected mine.
Wes says to make that an option. What do you mean? Wes, I don't understand. Both.
Eric, Wes, what are we doing?
We can't make both.
Session.
You have to pick, yeah.
We have divisiveness.
Wes, shush.
You're gonna feel strongly in one way or the other.
We're pitting all the Americans with that seat on their head
to head combat.
So if you're watching live with Ruchteeth first,
you go to Ruchteeth.com slash play.
We're of course live on Monday night.
If you're watching this on YouTube,
you don't understand anything I said,
so you don't get to participate.
What is it?
What kind of movie is?
I'm gonna go vote.
Or Christmas, because I can vote in this.
You can.
Anybody can vote in this.
I see YouTube again in your phones out.
You really are gonna go vote.
I'm gonna vote.
I've never voted in one of these.
I'm able to.
Question.
I'm exercising my right.
Is it that bad?
There was a Santa? What? Is it that bad bad there was a Santa? What is it that bad
There was a Santa at the mall. Oh, it's a little early, but I guess it's okay. Like thanks giving early this year
It's you know the 22nd of November and I was at the mall November like fourth
Mm-hmm. It's pretty early. That's pretty early. He was a good Santa. He was like miracle 34th Street level Santa
Yeah, yeah, I was pissed off about my Santa experience last year at the mall
Please let this be an experience that you didn't have your kid with you at all
I wish why what happened?
The only time you got to I've to know when did you have the second in May? Okay, so this is pretty to yeah
I was pregnant. She probably contributed to my
Irritation Women don't change it all with their pregnant. No, no, I was there as I was probably contributed to my irritation. No.
Women don't change at all when they're pregnant.
No, no.
I was like, I'm comfortable.
Pleasant person all the time.
There was only one person working the register,
and there were probably 100 people in line waiting to check out
after having their picture taken.
It's after you're saying to get the photo.
Right.
You can make an appointment to get your photo taken.
Where'd you go?
So that was seamless.
Barton Creek Mall. OK. Pants. Yeah. Did you get to go to the mall your photo taken. So that was seamless. Barton Creek Mall.
Okay.
Yeah, did you get to go to the mall, Sam?
That's where it was.
Yeah, it's good to be Santa.
It's a nice mall.
By the way, the Poles are very good.
The one you're probably talking about,
he has like one super dilated people.
He's like David Boehch.
Oh, I saw him from far away.
I didn't approach Santa Coles.
It's cool, like you zoom in and it's like,
mm-hmm.
But so we made the appointment
and the photo taking was seamless,
but then to get the actual photo,
you had to wait in line.
And they changed up the company that handles it last year
where they didn't offer a digital only package.
You had to buy a package and it was like $50
with like, built full wallet prints
and all this shit that you don't need.
They learned.
And then it was an additional like $20 to get the digital file
on top of the package.
On top of the package.
You had to add digital.
And I waited in line for an hour to learn that.
Did you buy it?
Of course I did, I'm fucking sucker.
Yeah.
And the picture sucked too.
So I feel like you could just go up to the mall
and say to after his shift, give him 20 bucks be like, hey, meet me around back.
I have a chair.
I'll take this on my camera.
This sounds kinky.
Yeah, I have a chair.
You're on back.
I've got a camera on a chair.
And a giant.
It's like you ever see bad Santa?
No, no.
I hear that's a really funny movie.
I never took it seriously because it looked bad, but it's pretty good. But there's a funny scene where I someone does
something similar and they're like, basically, Billy Bob Thornton is like a mall Santa and he
hooks up with this woman and she's just like the whole time. She's like, fuck me Santa, fuck me Santa.
Well, I don't like it. I had my kids with me at the mall and they saw Santa
and even like the youngest one's reaction was like,
it's really early, what's he doing here?
Yeah, like the Trail of Lights doesn't even open up
until after Thanksgiving.
Well, most like Christmas, like I know you,
I know you start early with the Christmas stuff.
Why hate trail of lights is so overrated.
So overrated.
But now I get like all the warm fuzzies.
It's very family.
It's it's different when you're like, it's nice for like, explain how it's overrated. So overrated. But now I get all the warm fuzzies. It's very family. It's different when you're like,
it's nice for explain how it's overrated.
Well, explain what it is for the people
who are not in Austin.
It's a trail of lights.
It's, you walk through it
and it's a commercial for local businesses
and their shitty Christmas lights.
It's a very highly bootleg Disney IP.
This sounds like someone who would be very good
at playing Scrooge.
But there are other things.
There's hot chocolate.
There are there's ice skating.
There's a really cool tree.
There's kettle corn, which is why I go.
I have been to see started charging.
Like it's better.
Okay.
When years ago, when it was still free,
I think you can pay a little more and get like reserved parking and
you can get like fast pass line. The Bill Gates experience. I know there's you can pay a little more and get reserved parking and fast pass line.
Bill Gates' experience.
No, you can do that too, or you get the backstage pass.
Backstage?
Backstage, what?
See the backside of lights?
You get to see the where they plug them in.
You get your own VIP area.
I don't know what the whole experience
to it lights is to walk through this light experience.
If you're paying enough, someone will give you a piggyback ride.
You don't even have to walk.
I feel I'm noticing a trend here where the people who don't like the trail of lights
or feel it's overrated are me and Gus and you too, John Becca, do like him.
You guys have kids.
I was 100% with you guys before I had kids.
I never went.
I was like, fuck this place.
It's a waste of time.
Look at that line of cars.
And then kids are like an activity.
Yeah, there's nothing about my love of Christmas activities.
That's anything to do with my business activities.
You're different.
So I'm looking at the trailer lights,
which again, shitty experience.
Don't ever go.
Don't go.
Don't go.
They have platinum tickets.
That's what the prices are $80 a person.
Oh, you can buy a four pack for $206.
It's literally your looking at lights.
You comes with Valley parking for one vehicle.
Okay.
Platinum concier planning before and our platinum team
to guide you at the event.
It's a fucking trail.
Access to the park at 6 p.m.
through a private dedicated entry.
That's right.
It's like early access golf cart shuttle access
to platinum lounge and trailhead.
Access to a private heated platinum lounge with comfortable seating exclusive bar. Come on. You'll put it on the list twice.
Hey, some one semi of VIP packets one drink ticket valid at bars throughout the park for platinum pass. One ride pass for exclusive entry to Ferris wheel or Carousel.
Oh, yeah, there's like a lot more there. There's a fair.
There's a fair. Yeah, access to silky lounge real fine cookie co-couple comfortable seating heater washrooms. There's also a zip fast pass a general
mission. The fast pass. It's like 20 bucks per cent or something. It's still kind of expensive.
Yeah, $20. It's $15. You go earlier in the month and then general admission is free half
the time and then the other time it's $3. So you can either go for $3 or free
or you can pay $80.
How much to make it so that no one else is on the trail
and I get to enjoy by my own.
$80.
Yeah.
It's like you do that early entrance.
But I don't want to do that.
You'll be there.
You'll be there only VIP.
Oh, you'll be there with the other suckers.
How much to be able to take one of the installations
home with me.
I get to pick.
Peter H says, well, one whole drink ticket.
One whole drink.
$75 beverage.
Just really ration that drink the entire trail, okay?
Well, it's, here's the thing about the trail of lights.
It's cool at the start because you are literally in this like tunnel that's full of
lights and that's really cool.
And then you get out and you start walking and it's a trail that like will be like one
tiny little light display over here of like Mickey Mouse and then like another out and you start walking and it's a trail that will be one tiny little light
display over here of Mickey Mouse.
And then another 20 feet later,
it's just like, oh, it's Darkwing Duck, I think.
It's like Mickey Mouse or like Mickey Mouse.
It's mugged on the trail of lights, you hate it.
It just like dwindles.
It's just, I think it was because I was cold.
And I was just like, wow, when they said trail of lights,
I thought it was just gonna be like magical, but it was like
Item there's a 20 feet there's a pretty good travel lights down in a
Beauty, so when you drive to San as a wonderland or whatever. I don't know if you drive through it. You still walk
Maybe I'm just assuming you drive through it since there are so many cars back down to get in it
It's pretty it's pretty it's pretty too. It's like right on the highway.
You can see it from the highway?
No, okay, then I'm thinking of something else.
In Buda?
Maybe Kyle.
Another one, and Kyle, that's where I went
for the unconventional documentary,
another recipe documentary,
if you have a receipt first one.
The point you chose, guys.
Shoot the doctor, awesome.
That's where I met the, the Santa from Kyle,
and I was laughing because he threw candy
that hit kid in a face by accident
Yes, good times
Did a did Bernie ever show this last week this acorn. He did. Oh, he did. I was on social
What he was obsessed with that fucking acorn. He just he brought it. He's like I found the perfect acorn
It's a little beret, but it's broken. So it has a hat. It's got to pay. He can take his hat.
Malady, we, we, I don't know.
I've just been playing with it.
I didn't know Bernie saw it.
I thought that was John's.
Eat it.
You can see the past.
I was gonna smash it, but it's actually really dense.
Yeah, his very dense and very cute.
No.
What are you gonna do?
Gustavo.
Take that.
Eric just wants to see stuff down.
How much to eat that? Eric's screaming. I have to be Gavin. No, how much?
No, not the head. Jesus that went everywhere. I always get it used as a little beret for something
Happiness. Well you find another one. They're everywhere
That's the first a-quart I've ever seen in my life. You need to go for walks more. There's everywhere
I thought I couldn't understand where burger's freaking out about it's like look
It's an a-course like yeah, this fucking 50 million of them outside. There's everywhere. I thought I couldn't understand where Bernie was freaking out about it. It's like, look, it's an acorn.
It's like, yeah, this fucking 50 million of them outside.
There's oak trees everywhere.
This is the shining delight of people who spend all their lives in dorm.
It's not cooking.
Yeah, not.
Look, it's a bird.
It's a crackle.
I mean, what are you going to get excited about next?
It's a bird that wants sugar.
I'm just going to scream at you for it.
I love that you just said crackle.
That makes me very happy.
You've made my day.
Are crackles everywhere?
Do they have crackles?
No, I think they're often...
Is it like a central Texas thing?
Did you have crackles to San Diego, Eric?
No, I've never seen crackles until I moved here.
I have heard of that right now, but they're like tiny raptors.
They're awful.
They really are like tiny raptors.
I asked Google if like, if are crackles everywhere
and it just heard me and said,
tacos everywhere
My favorite I don't want to correct it one time I was at Chipotle and I dropped a piece of chicken out of my
Braco and a Oracle ate it and I got very like creeped out it was very
Cannibalist did it eat it and go
What kind of meat a piece of chicken this is cousin
Can we eat our cousins? I'm like, what kind of meat? A piece of chicken. This is cousin.
Can we eat our cousins? Can we eat our meal?
I would eat it, I wouldn't eat it
because they're delight, but if,
but if it was, some, they're delight.
They're delight.
Who would you eat?
Oh, if I could.
You had to choose one person to eat.
Ooh.
That's a good question.
If I was legally allowed to eat
anybody I want with no ramifications.
Yeah.
Who would be tasty?
Who's like a specimen?
I'm looking around.
Chris Evans.
Oh.
Oh, I was not thinking like someone in the room.
Yeah, someone from R.C.
You got to dream big, motherfucker.
If you're going to eat someone, eat someone worth while.
I want to eat the rock.
I was going to say the last person I wanted to eat is the rock.
Oh, he'd be tasty.
He'd be old.
Probably be a little tough, yeah.
You can tell he's grusly. I just want to be the old probably be a little tough. Yeah
I've got a brilliant beforehand. Yeah, there you go
Johnny Depp was at that
Seraphia rotten I did Guy Fieri. He tastes so good
Forever just so tough. He will take you to flavor town lame grilled from a shirt. Yep. It tastes like diners, driving the dives. Why won't you, Wyoming?
No, you have to say who you eat.
Oh wait, okay, hold on.
That's the game we play.
That's the game.
Hmm.
Uh, Chrissy, no.
Chrissy, no.
It's Christmas.
I'm going to say just sell bunchon.
Ooh.
I feel like she'd be like, there wouldn't be a lot of meat there.
Yeah, but she's like kinda, she's kinda butt.
Yeah, that's true.
And she's like athletic.
Probably a nice,
what would you say?
She's like bunchin.
She's just like, who immediately comes to my,
I think it's cause she has nice skin.
Yeah.
Well that's the best part of the chicken, right?
The question is who would you wear as a human coat, right? I already said it for sevens. Yeah. Well that's the best part of the chicken, right? The question is who would you wear as a human coat, right?
I already said it for sevens.
Yeah.
Chris Evans skin.
Come on, that'd be great.
Little Chris Evans costume.
I'd eat John.
There you go.
You think I'd be tasty?
Yeah.
Would be the tastiest part of me.
Let's play this game.
Your face.
Like the cheeks?
Yeah, sweet bread.
Can you make some John Barbarcoa? I don't know what it is, but like Barbara.
Yeah. Oh, it's head meat. Yeah.
Typically it's head, but I mean, usually they'll make a cheek for you white people.
Thanks. Yeah, you get free down by the eye.
9.9% by the eyes in the tongue.
I'm not a 9.9% white. Excuse me.
I'm 0.1% not white.
You're I guess you've never seen them make Barbara.
Coah then you never you never seen that process. It's boiled ahead. I guess you've never seen them make barbacola then. You've never seen that process?
It's boiled ahead.
I'm missing an obvious pun of Barbara Koa.
Oh yeah.
You asked your mom starting to use that.
It looked really good.
It was so good.
I needed it.
Yeah.
It's all part of the plan.
She made enough for the whole crew.
And yeah, after we were done filming, we all ate it.
It was so awesome.
Shout out to them, by the way, to everyone involved the crew.
My name's Audrey. That crew's awesome. Yeah, everyone else who helped out.
They worked with us for the connected doc that we did. I think that was...
The Let's Play Live one was the first doc, but connected was the second one.
It's the first time we worked with Alphius.
We did. Let's play live was the first doc.
And they were still getting to know Ruchitith and like, what's okay and what's not okay.
And they would like ask us questions and like, is it okay that we're asking this?
It's like, are you kidding?
Like we have no privacy in our personal life whatsoever.
Well, I think the fact that I had done unconventional with that crew before helped make the process
of doing, uh, common ground even easier.
Like I, I, I had trust in them.
And I knew that, uh, it wasn't like a gotcha thing or they weren't
trying to like set me up. So like I had total faith and I knew that you understood our vision
and they were going to do things the right way. So. That's right. You have two docs now. What's
going to be the trilogy? A gust trilogy. Not to figure it out. You have to have to do a
third. We spit balls some ideas like because we did a lot of driving for this documentary.
And we were just spitballing.
Oh, I remember.
Can I say it?
Should I say it?
There was one that I wanted to do.
Oh, yeah, you have to say it now.
I wanted to try to discover the origin of South Texas horror, like La Yorona and the
Chupa Calvina and stories like that.
And not quite a cheap and a honor style, but find out like the folklore behind it
and like go through like traditional storytelling.
I just wanna hear you say those words again.
That was awesome,
because I'm used to hearing you with like this accent
whenever you say anything.
So we need to be in Spanish.
It's like, oh, it comes out.
I spoke Spanish, so I've been married, you know,
for 12 years now.
And I spoke Spanish in front of my in-loss
for the first time like two months ago.
And they had no idea.
I could speak Spanish and they were like,
you speak Spanish?
I was like, oh yeah, I guess it's never come up hasn't it?
I just very impressive to me when people could speak
to language perfectly fluently is impressive.
So you were gonna make that doc,
and then we can get really weird with the prequels
to your memes.
I mean, to your docs.
To my memes.
To your memes.
Yeah.
We do the Gus prequels. I'm down with that. I mean to your docs. To what memes to your memes. Yeah, we do the Gus Prequels.
I'm down with that.
I wanna do a doc.
We're Maryl and I go to work on our family's farms
because that would be just a disaster.
Maryl and a farm would be a disaster, yes.
Does her, your family still have a farm?
She's a very sitting house.
Is it onions and canelops? I remember you would bring some for everybody.
The canelops?
Oh, I canelops.
Yeah, and onions.
I can bring you some starting in like May.
OK, cool, I'll wait for May.
I like canelops.
Canelops are good for you.
There.
If you eat my food, you might eat some canelops.
You and I could get married, but we can't alope.
I don't like that joke at all.
It's a pun and puns are stupid.
Puns are great.
Puns are like the smartest form of humor.
Oh, that's what someone who says puns would say.
Who doesn't know that they're not the smartest form of humor.
You have to really think hard about them and you have to really think hard to make a bad
joke.
You got to know word association, make connection, be quick-witted, to make a bad joke. You gotta know word association,
make connection, be quick-weighted, there's a lot involved.
I will say, actually I'll say what I would recognize
as talented is people who are able to make puns
through translation.
So if there is a...
Like a pescato?
I was very happy with that tweet by the way.
I was very good.
I don't know what that tweet is, but it's great.
Gus tweeted that catfish from here on out
are known as pesgatos.
In Spanish.
Oh yeah.
Pesgato is fish and gato is cat.
Yeah, so point of credit.
The reportmento there.
Esther came up with that one.
I was just the messenger.
I was the tweeter on that one.
I asked her for permission.
I was like, can I tweet that?
And then I showed her.
And then she said it was okay.
But that's like a job.
People have to do when they're translating scripts
or movies and stuff or doing dubs
as they have to like, they have to localize the jokes
and humor and even like the phrasing we say.
Which then brings me back around to Pokemon
where we have to, people have to make the Pokemon
and English names based off the Japanese ones.
And that seems like a fun job.
Side note, we also call socks, which in Spanish are
gassatinas.
Gassatinas.
We call them sokatinas, like a bastardized Spanish version.
That's nice.
I can't do that in my half, but too white.
I don't know.
I don't know different languages enough to make puns
and different languages.
They're pretty good with French.
You can hold your own.
We. I know zero French, so anything you say, to make puns and different. You're pretty good with French. You can hold your own. Uh, we.
I know zero French, so anything you say,
like that met.
Yeah.
I don't know any other languages.
You don't know any other languages?
You never wanted to learn?
Yeah, I did.
I took two and a half years of French
in high school and then I forgot it all.
Mm.
I took, you're feeling something new.
Pff.
I took like six years of Spanish.
You should know Spanish by virtue for you.
I know Spanish.
Like, I don't speak it that often.
I used to, and I used to be pretty fluent.
I can understand it really well, speaking it not so much.
You're going to stand enough to get the fun jokes that go without.
Oh, yeah.
Como estas.
There you go.
What would you say to that?
Bien.
Bien. Ito? Ito. It's very similar to French.
Well, they're their flat-base. Yeah, because French is a Bonjour-
They're not languages.
Sa va bien? Etou-
Etou-
Etou-
Just a Romanian. I think it's Romanian.
It's another Latin-based language and it sounds a lot like Spanish.
Romanian sounds like Spanish.
And then there, yeah.
There was a, when we were doing the doc that got cut and we didn't get to include it,
but there are, in Guatemala, there are still 21 different mind languages that are spoke,
and there are some people in Guatemala who don't speak Spanish, they only speak a mind
language.
So sometimes some of the immigrants who
come through like at that bus station of a calendar I was at
don't speak Spanish, they only speak like a Mayan language and
no one knows how to help them.
Whoa man.
And so I went down like a rabbit hole like when I found that out
and I was in a calendar, I started watching YouTube videos
of people speaking and the most popular one is a language
called Kicche and it's like a million people in Guatemala
still speak Kicche. A million, wow.
And it's like it's it's crazy to listen to it and it's like a million people in Guatemala still speak kicce. A million, wow. And it's like, it's crazy to listen to it.
It's like, oh, that's like a super old language.
Yeah, we have like no foundation of any of the etymology.
We're all like any of the same patterns or rhymes.
It's so bizarre.
It sounds almost like Valey Eastern European, which would maybe think about it when you said
Romanian.
It's just wild to think about.
What do you think other
than English is the most, I guess, useful language to know Spanish or Chinese.
In the world, probably Chinese. There's a lot of people speak Chinese. I think Chinese
is the most spoken language and I think Spanish is the second most spoken language.
Mandarin. Mandarin is more common than Cantonese. The Cantonese. Yeah. Most common language in the world.
It's just, it's your pocket.
It's your round. Yeah.
Yeah. But see,
Mandarin, Chinese,
English,
Hindustani,
Spanish, Arabic, the top five.
Wow.
Now, that would just be get,
that's based off of just population, right?
Hmm.
I don't know.
I wonder if what would be the most useful one
for all the different places in the world that speak it.
Cause there's like, you go to China,
and yeah, you could speak, you know,
to a lot of people around there,
but then you get out of there and where else is Mandarin spoken?
Most spoken language in the world.
Geographically.
I mean, pretty much the same.
As an English speaker, I've always been pretty okay with English. Yeah, everywhere I've traveled
I want to tell him that's more commonly spoken geographically a lot of places you go would be like tourist kind of places
Like I don't know tours. I mean some of it. Yeah, but we also like road trip through Eastern Europe
So ended up in some weird places. I have a question. Yes, and then you remind me of a question I had
um Are there any trains that leave out of Austin that go anywhere? It had up in some weird places. I have a question. Yes. And then you remind me of a question I had. Yes, yeah.
Are there any trains that leave out of Austin that go anywhere?
Yes.
There's an Amtrak station at like six in Lamar.
I think it goes to Chicago.
Really?
A train to Chicago.
I want to go on a train.
But I think it takes a long time.
I want to go on a train.
I want to go.
Where, how far could I go like in like a couple days?
Like, round trip just there and back? back sure like a weekend on a train. Oh
I think you would spend the whole weekend on the train. Yeah, I have fun with that. Could I do that? Yeah, you know sleeper car
Yeah, I never done a super car. I like trains
I used to we used to go on trains in California because there's one that goes up the the coast and it goes all the way up
And I've taken it to visit like family and just going trips.
And I love it and that's pretty because that's along the beach.
But I like trains.
Train is absolutely my favorite mode of transportation.
You want to go on a train, right?
Yeah.
Let's go in a weekend train trip.
Okay.
If you can, you actually go to like New Orleans.
From the train going to New Orleans?
I don't know.
I rode a train when I was in New Orleans when I was little.
So I don't know if it's like part of the same circuit,
but because New Orleans isn't that far.
It's like, what's that?
It's like it's like, well, yeah, like seven or eight.
Okay.
Chicago to San Antonio, 32 hours, 25 minutes.
Woo.
So is it out of San Antonio out of here?
Looks like it's out of San Antonio.
I think they stop here on the way.
It's there's the reason it's so long,
especially because of all the stops.
It's fine.
How someone figured out how far I can go in like a day.
Should I go to Los Angeles?
65 hours and 20 minutes.
There was a train that would go from California, like Los Angeles to the Grand Canyon.
I never did that train.
I regret it.
That would be cool.
Because I've never been to the Grand Canyon.
I've been to Arizona like dozens of times.
Never been the Grand Canyon.
But I used to take the train from Ottawa to Toronto all the time for RBBTO, the fan event
in Toronto. And that was like the most for RBBTO the fan event in Toronto
And that was like the most fun. It was the perfect amount of time like four and a half hours
You get some food you're in this comfortable car. There's outlets and everything lots of space. I love train
It's it's just so relaxing. It's so non stressful. What's so ever? Yeah?
There's a train that would go from where I lived in California into like Los. And it wasn't the most like price savvy kind of thing.
It's just easier to drive in.
But sometimes I do it just because it was nice.
I was like, it's going train there.
I believe that there's a company trying to establish a Houston to Dallas train
line. And then from there, expanded to be like Dallas to Austin and San Antonio.
That'd be cool.
Till I kind of connect them.
I came to the realization the other day that even if they move forward, I'll be dead before those trains. No. Like that. I will not be alive
to see those trains go. You don't know that. No, that's not what you think you'll take.
That's going to be a little bit better. Yeah, but maybe there'll be some advancements in
that. In healthcare and I'll get to live to be 140 years old. Yeah. We want that. Maybe they'll tunnel it.
Maybe the boring company will make it tunnel maybe they will I'm gonna train
Go on get on a train. I'm gonna go on a train. Let's get John on a train forget
Chilas miracle network extra like
I'm gonna go on a train. Have you been to Japan John have I been to Japan? Yes now?
I have not either that was my favorite train experience. I imagine that be pretty cool
And they're train.
Yes, and their train stations are amazing.
I think that's gonna be a 2019 goal of mine's Go Japan.
Yeah, because I did a pretty good amount
of traveling in 2018, and I've gone,
I'd never broken the continent.
That's not how you say that, but let's go with that.
I'd never left the continent until,
I guess, until I met Riot, and I went and visited her and London.
That was the first time I'd ever gone over to.
Money went to go visit her, that was the first time.
Oh wow.
I just haven't traveled very much and I've had a very many opportunities for it.
Because I made different life choices that didn't offer that.
But now I'm in a position where I can, if I really want to, and if I set a goal and save
up the money for that kind of thing.
And so I was able to do that.
And I've now done Australia because of RTX Sydney
and I did France this last RTX London.
But Japan is way up there.
And I really wanna go on all my fucking friends keep going.
And I hate it and I have to like,
let's go to Japan.
Okay, we're gonna go on a page.
Okay, that should be your train.
Yeah, we're gonna do train right first.
Eric, let's do a podcast from Japan. You'll pay for it all. Does that mean the cup, cause we'll pay for it? Yeah, that should be your train. Yeah, we're gonna do train ride first. Eric, let's do a podcast from Japan.
You'll pay for it all.
Does that mean the cup has to pay for it?
Yeah, you know what?
Yeah, okay.
I've worked at Rooster Teeth officially for almost three years
and I haven't traveled once for this company.
Girl, took me five years before I got travel for the company.
I used to travel for the company all the time.
Yeah, you went to a mega time.
Everywhere.
Yeah.
I figured out that, okay, so I'm on the podcast because Bernie's on a boat. Therefore, longer
Bernie's on the boat. I could be on the podcast. So if I make Bernie stay on the boat, I can
go on the Japan podcast. Got it. That's how we'll put him on a boat to Japan. I'll put
you on a plane to Japan. I want to go to Japan to be freaking out. I don't think you both just can't have.
You not yet.
You are, I feel like Bernie.
You know what is it that seat over there
that makes you feel stupid?
Oh, no.
Give me off the seat.
No, so we're gonna go on a train, you and me Barbara,
and then we're gonna go to Japan.
And you can wear your shirt that says,
but it says Mickey Mouse.
Meckiness.
I literally was buying this.
The trail of like,
it's paper care.
I bought this and then was sitting in,
not sitting, but I was standing in the changing room,
downloading the translation on my phone
so that I could hold like Google translate over it
just to make sure this didn't say something like
he beats trees.
You know, something like that.
What does it say?
Mickey Mouse. Mickey Mouse. That's a nice one. Where is that from?
This one for every 21. Okay. I was gonna ask. I it's very much there.
That's good to do. The Tony like it. I bet Tony.
I literally texted Tony after I bought it and said I bought a Mickey Mouse sweater.
I'm aware for you tomorrow. And that's how two dads texted.
Tony for those who don't know is the head of our merch design and also,
the biggest Disney file.
Disney and Mickey Mouse fanatic ever.
Even today, he's wearing a Mickey Mouse sweater.
Had to do that.
Couldn't just let me have the Mickey day.
He also has more shoes, right than anybody I know.
Then an entire classroom of high school girls.
He collects different types of sneakers especially.
He's a big collector.
Yeah, big clothing. He collects different types of sneakers especially. He's a big collector. Yeah, like clothing.
He has an entire room dedicated to like his sneakers
and I think all of his Disney stuff.
Let's all talk about how weird Tony is.
So Tony doesn't drink hot beverages.
What?
Tony doesn't drink hot beverages.
Why?
Because it's weird to him.
Tony, is that what he doesn't like?
Does he, does he eat soup?
No, because that's different apparently, because he's fucking weird.
Tony, if you're here, come on the side.
Tony's a very sweet boy.
I think so wonderful.
Nathan called him a professional good boy one time and that's like all I can think of.
So I already loved, yeah, professional good boy is a very good title for him.
I think I have a title on the back of my computer that Max made from me called spicy boy. Tony and I got to go to design Paris together with a few of the other people from the office.
I went to the place weird.
Does that Paris?
Yeah, I like it.
It's weird.
It's real weird.
And basically it, it made me became me and Tony, the two old dads enjoying design the way
we wanted to and the other group enjoying it as
a different group and I immediately was gravitated to how Tony was enjoying the park and
it was just we we wanted to get to our next place. It's ever also wanted to stop and like take
photos and selfies and that kind of thing and we're just like we weren't like rushing to stuff but
we just wanted to get to the next thing. Speaking of hot beverages, I had an extremely gross hot beverage at Disneyland Paris when I went there.
What was the gross stuff?
I want to say it was November when I went.
So it was already getting chilly because it's Paris.
And they had stands out that were selling hot spiced mold wine.
So it was like hot red wine filled with spices.
You never had mold wine.
Mold wine is hot.
It was fucking gross.
What?
It was.
They do it wrong.
Okay, so wait a second.
You were prepping me to hear some sort of weird foreign drink that I've never heard
before, but you just said mold wine was gross.
I feel like Griffin used to make mold wine on the day.
And they're selling it in Disney, by the way, which is also a weird thing.
They sell.
They sell a lot more alcohol and disemperes.
Yeah, they do.
No, it was absolutely disgusting.
I heard people talk about mold wine before
and I had it there and I was like, no,
I did not get this.
Have you had mold wine prior?
No, have you had mold wine?
Yeah, I think Bernie made some in his place one time.
It was okay, it wouldn't be my drink of choice.
Oh, I don't even like alcohol and I like mold wine.
It's disgusting.
Hey, we have to pull.
Is mold cider. Is mold wine good? Yes or no? Yes it is. While you get that ready, I wanna't even like alcohol and I like mold wine. It's disgusting. That's a poll is made wine good.
Yes or no?
Yes it is.
While you get that ready, I want to read this here.
Wait, what was the nightmare thing?
Was it Christmas?
It was Christmas.
It was Christmas, yeah.
It was founding.

That's sad you all did get to enjoy very similar to the results
for Christmas versus Halloween movie.
It's a more of a slaughter here.
69 nice. Oh, 71 now. Go back 69.
But by the way, I thought based on the way chat was reacting
that everyone's going to love mold wine.
I thought I was going to be the minority.
Can we ask is red wine good?
Like I'm curious if people just don't like wine.
Everyone loves wine, don't they?
No, you guys are just whining too much.
I think you're more just get away from it.
Devasive drink.
Were you mulling that one over?
No!
We are smart.
We are smart.
Yep, that's what smart people say.
SMR2.
Thank you. Moldwine is not good.
We settled it for a while.
Didn't you give it a chance?
None of us can eat too.
It's a little good.
Moldwine more.
Eggnog.
Where do we land?
That's right.
That's right.
That's right.
On eggnog.
No.
Too thick.
Okay, two people were very resounding with their answer.
Be me.
I don't know.
I have had eggnog.
It's okay for like a sipper too.
But after that, it's just like,
I feel like I have diabetes.
It's very rich.
It's so rich.
It's good when you put some like whiskey in it.
You're drinking whiskey, yeah, right?
No, it's just, it's like you submitted a recipe.
I think Gus' eggnog recipe was left
for the year before.
One cup eggnog, one cup whiskey.
Remove cup of eggnog recipe was left for the year before. One cup eggnog, one cup whiskey,
remove cup of eggnog,
four whiskey.
And I think eggnog is definitely one of those drinks
that most people react the way you do and hate it.
And there's just a very select few people who it's like.
Select few, I like this.
It is.
The snobbery.
Isn't that, was that snobbery?
Yeah, it's like, there's a few people who like it.
No, there's a select few. like it. No, there's a
Like there's a few smart people who don't say puns and drink agnog. Well, they're like old world treats that some people like but
To rest of us have evolved to things that taste better. Okay, I would say the majority of people like agnog majority of you
Like agnog. No, I'd say majority don't I'd say I'm gonna go for a record
Why I have another drink that I wanted to bring up that I brought up. I was talking to I think I was talking to my
Go to rusey.com slash play for watching life. That's gonna be just like 99% no
Oh, they flip. I feel like it's
Please
It's two people voted, that's all that.
Okay.
While they're deciding that,
I had another Milky drink with a bit of a rice beer.
Ryan, a machata.
Harchata.
Oh, so good.
Harchata's great.
Yeah.
Amazing.
Barbara looks confused.
Have you heard it?
I have, had it.
I was just trying, I was reminded of American Vandal Season 2
because of Portchata.
You guys seen that?
I'm not seeing it.
My brother is obsessed with that show.
But you know, the poor.
I got canceled though I heard.
Wow.
I think I'm back for a third season, I believe.
This is way closer than I thought it would be.
Yeah, I mean a lot of people like Ignog.
My people.
The select few.
The select half.
The select half.
The select fifth percent. Hortchot is good right so good it's like it's kind of like good like a
vanilla it's cinnamony cinnamony so it's rice water it's rice water like to run
off does that make it healthy yeah no it's got so much sugar it's so
sugary I just I'm I basically grew up my entire life
around communities that had Hortchata around
because it's Southern California,
and then I guess even now in Texas,
I'm sure it's pretty easy to find.
But I love Hortchata.
And then all those flavors,
it was doing like tamarind,
and then there's the other one.
The watermelon?
Are you taking it?
Just like August frescoes?
Yeah, that was frescoes.
Oh.
I like the way he's made that.
But this is, I mean, we can call it. It's pretty split. It's prettyco. Yeah, I thought I was fresco. Oh. I like the way he said that. But this is like, we can call it.
It's pretty split.
It's pretty split, yeah.
Time's so, that makes me so happy.
I thought I was a fucking freak.
Majority says no.
There's a little freak.
Starbox.
I'm a little bit freak.
Starbox used to have an egg na guatine
if they still do, and I love that.
Ooh, it was good.
Have they started the Christmas beverages here?
Yeah, they have.
I had my first pumpkin spice latte for the season.
Well, that's pumpkin spice.
Well, that's fall.
Yeah, they had a gingerbread and I don't know if they
had the peppermint.
They always do that thing that I find annoying
where they get in like all their Christmas supplies
and they put it like in boxes and say like,
don't open until like November, whatever.
And they put the boxes like out in the store.
Like, you're supposed to be excited about
a bunch of fucking cardboard boxes.
It's just literally a pile of cardboard boxes that don't say like don't open till November 12.
Like just keep them in the back.
I have a Christmas question for y'all.
Mm-hmm.
What, when you've been in a relationship, what do you typically get your significant other's
parents as gifts for Christmas if anything?
A dog.
I've never.
It's just perfect.
Get them a dog.
Can't go wrong.
I can't do that.
Okay, two dogs. I got two already
What do you guys do? I I actually had to do it recently. Yeah last year you talking about giving your sleeping others parents Yeah, like if you're going to their house
I'm going to be there like for Christmas. I've never met them. They're they're British and
I knew very little about them
Big challenge. So I leaned away from trying to like hit the mark
and went for like just American absurdity.
And so I went to the capital gift store
and then in the capital.
And I got them the worst,
gaudiest Texas mugs.
Because I knew they would use them
because they drink tea,
but they're just terrible Texas ones and then I put I also got a
This was nice. I got a jar of like because they sell like local preserves like honey or jams are made around here
It's like I'm that and put those in like unwrapped them all up in this little gift package
But I gave them it's terrible Texas when actually her dad. I didn't give him preservatives. I got him a
What's that called a bull tie?
Bull tie.
Very toxic.
He liked it.
Like a gift basket, a meat and cheese basket,
as always, well received by parents.
Delicious boners and chats has,
buy them a pig in exchange for their eldest son.
Oh, okay, great suggestion.
It's weird.
What did Josh's screen names on Am was delicious boner?
That's why it stood out.
It's really weird.
Delicious boner.
Have we talked about that before?
I don't think so.
I remember that.
Yeah, I used Am when I had him as a contact with delicious boner.
I completely waived it for my memories.
What were you?
Oh, you don't want to talk about it.
No, I mean, it's gone.
You can't use that service anymore.
True.
I used to be, I wish this was ICQ.
Oh, you had another, like, you're like, Gus hates you or something.
Or Gus hates aim or something like that?
Oh, yeah.
Gus hates you.
That's right.
That was it.
I used that for a while too.
And like, Bernie was like,
Did he have something about cake?
Might be cake.
Might be cake.
Yeah.
Bernie was like, busbie or something. Something like that bus
something. Yeah, we went to I came with the name might be cake
because Jeff and I went to some show downtown, like at the red
eyed fly or something. And one of the opening acts was like
this, this really, this really young band of like they were
like, they looked like they were all high school girls.
And they're playing like this little punk band.
And Jeff, we walked in, Jeff goes, this is absolutely adorable.
But if we stick around, they might be, there might be cake later.
And I was like, might be cake.
I was like, that's really funny.
So I saved a, I might be cake my name.
That's a good one.
Then years later, I found out the lead singer from that band died
from a heroin overdose.
Oh.
Not happy ending to that story. Yeah, Oh. Not a happy ending to that story.
Yeah, now it was a good button to that story.
Mm-hmm.
I was like, oh, I remember that band.
Like I read it in the States, man.
I was like, so in, you know, local band member dead from a heroin overdose.
Oh, I saw them.
But we found his aim username.
His real name was Gus.
Yeah, I had a few.
R-A-P-A-I-M. His real name was Gus. Yeah, I had a few. RIP AIM.
Man, did you see that story?
It was a really weird story that came out over the weekend about that guy.
I think it was from the UK who died because he ate a garden slug.
Why?
Why would?
He, I guess it was like eight years ago this guy was at a party.
I want to say he was 20 at the time, he was at a party,
and he was drinking with his friends and like a slug,
they saw slug in the yard.
And a bunch of guys dared him to eat the slug, so he ate it.
But it turned out that it had some parasite in it.
Like, I think it was rat lung worm.
And it, I think it made him quadriplegically,
he had to go to the hospital a couple of days
later.
It wasn't instant, like he started feeling bad.
He had to go to the hospital, then he became a quadriplegic.
Then I think he, like through physical therapy, he regained some limited use of, I think
his legs.
And then eventually, like just the parasite got the best of him and he passed away.
And it's like, you wouldn't think that.
You think, like, oh, it's just like hanging out, like whatever, it's like just a dumb
slug, you could eat that. Nope. And there's no good end to that story. Yeah, like, oh, it's just like hanging out, like whatever, it's like just a dumb slug, you could eat that.
Yeah.
And there's no good end to that story.
Yeah, like that will kill you.
Like that's fucking terrible.
What good thing happens at the end of that?
What's the best case scenario you ate a slug?
I think people probably just think of it,
like, oh, eat this cricket or spider or whatever,
like Jackass, not gonna do anything to you.
Just like a bug or whatever.
Eating any animal that you do not know if it is safe,
just regardless.
But it just makes me think like, you know,
he was a young, very healthy person.
I think he was playing rugby.
He was like, well, not for how good he was at rugby.
But it makes me think about like how tenuous of a hold
you have on life.
Like one seemingly innocent decision.
It's like, oh, that's, you know,
that's gonna ultimately lead to your death.
I think about that shit every day. That's crazy to me.
So I read this terrifying Reddit post the other day. I think that the question was like, what is like a real-world terror?
Yeah, you're afraid of and it's right because this guy commented and he's like, he played out this entire scenario.
Oh, I read that. Where he's like, say you're outside,
you're taking a nap in a hammock.
A tiny little bat that is in the throes
of its like furious stage of rabies,
bites you, but it's so small you don't even realize
that it has been on you.
The next day, it just scratches you.
Like the next day, you maybe see a scratch on your knee,
maybe you don't.
You're fine.
A year later, you start getting headaches.
And it just, it goes through and it's like, by the time that I realize you have rabies, you're fine. A year later, you start getting headaches. And it goes through and it's like,
by the time I realize you have rabies, you're dead.
And you get really hydrophobic when you have rabies,
so that's why you phone with the mouth.
Oh, but the good news is, is that it's not curable.
Right, like if you don't get treatment immediately.
And you don't even know that you need treatment.
So I can have rabies right now is what you're saying.
Yeah, and like in this scenario,
I believe the bat that they said was so light,
like it wouldn't even wake you up.
Like you would never even felt it fall on you.
But you're good cause you don't go outside.
So keep, I've been outside a few times.
Yeah, I read that.
I was fucking scared.
What are some other symptoms?
There's a video and I think it's on YouTube of a guy
It was I think it's in
It was like an Afghanistan or something. There was a community that was attacked by a band of rabbit wolves
And they have medical footage of him going through the like final stages of rabies and it basically turns you into a zombie like it's like a
The closest to a zombie. Because he's erratic.
Well, that's why I think it's like rabies
has essentially been like the basis of some zombie films.
Essentially.
Yeah.
It was a 20 day later.
It was a breaking water.
It was a breaking water.
And you get your brain is swelling and freaks out
like the part that's like fight or flight is super enlarged.
And yeah, it's just it's a really crazy video to watch.
So now I have a new fear.
Yeah.
I mean, you can get vaccines for rabies, just like dogs.
Just like preventative kind of thing.
Like if you're an outdoorsy type,
wouldn't hurt to.
Yeah.
It made me think though about the people that handled the bat,
the rabid bat, like during our time.
Yeah.
Hey, there was a rab rabbit bat in downtown Austin.
Yes, not at the same time.
During the same weekend.
Yeah, I know because the local news headline was like,
rabbit bat and R.T.X.
Nope, it was on the street.
So I told Jeff that we should make a ban called rabbit bat
and perform next year at R.T.X.
Oh, yeah.
Rabbit bat at R.T.X. Oh yeah. Rabbit Pat at RTX.
Rabbit Bats at RTX.
Yeah.
We used to say that, it's kind of stuff all over the planet.
People went crazy for them.
Yeah.
Man, there was a, so people are speaking of people going crazy.
Like there have been so many rumors
under if you kept up with it.
Like all this morning, it was like,
Amazon's narrowed down their list of HQ2 candidates.
Like Austin's on the list.
Austin's not on the list.
Austin's on a shared list.
Austin's not on a shared list.
Is it still on the list?
Who knows?
It's all speculation, but I don't know what happened
over the weekend, but all of a sudden this morning
people were fucking nuts with these lists.
And I think it was like, there were two competing thoughts.
Like some people said it was gonna be split between like,
Dallas and Virginia.
And other people were saying it was to be split between Austin and Virginia.
I've heard that yeah like DC area is pretty much the most likely outcome.
And some people also said maybe New York.
Well, a lot of people think it's going to come to Texas because Jeff Bezos has ties to Texas,
which I only recently learned. He's cousins with George Strait, which is like, I will bring this up any chance I have.
It's really weird.
Now I know.
Doesn't like Armadillo Aerospace, they do things out
in West Texas, right?
That's also a Bezos initiative.
I don't know about that, but I trust you.
Armadillo Aeros.
I wonder if I could guess the last thing you bought
on Amazon.
I wonder how close I could get.
Cause you buy stuff on Amazon, right?
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon.
I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon. I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon. I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon. I'm gonna buy stuff on Amazon. I'm gonna buy socks. I need to buy socks. I never mind to me. I need to buy socks.
Oh no, Jeff A.S. is a blue origin.
Not on real.
I'm gonna guess some type of household cleaner.
55 gallons of unpretent.
Pytods.
Pytods.
The last thing that Gus Arola bought on Amazon is a fish tank. Take cups.
For the record, I never wear no-show socks.
He wants to show those babies.
Sure does.
So, I really wish that they were a sponsor today.
But the last thing I bought in Amazon was a product from Ring.
Oh, was it?
What?
Ring, the steering camera. The last thing I bought in Amazon was a product from Ring. Oh, was it? Yeah. What?
You know Ring, the security camera.
Ah.
I bought something from Ring.
So you did buy a fish tank on Amazon.
I bought lip balm and batteries.
I think that's my latest.
I feel like whenever I need batteries,
I need them immediately.
So I'd never order them from Amazon.
I'm down to two.
So it was time to get more.
I was gonna damn it. I was gonna, damn it.
I was gonna bring something on the podcast that I bought.
It was weekend.
I bought a Tamagotchi.
No way.
They're back.
You say Tamagotchi?
Tamagotchi.
Not Tamagotchi.
I'm kidding.
It's Pokemon.
Speaking of language puns,
Tamagotchi is one of my favorite ones.
Is it pun?
Because it's in Japanese, tamago is egg,
and pomo dachi is friend.
So it's egg friend.
Egg friend.
Egg friend.
Yeah, I saw, I was at Urban Outfitters,
and they were selling them there,
because they sell a lot of like old,
like it used to be trendy now, it's trendy again, type things.
I spent $25 on it, and I was playing with it and I'm like,
God, this thing's annoying.
It's like just like what you have to do
if you want to like step away or go to sleep,
you just like set the timer or go to like the timer setting page
and like have it paused basically,
like you're resetting time and then just leave it.
That's the only way to pause it.
You'd be a great parent. Yeah.
How do I pause baby? How do I pause baby?
I was playing with it with Trevor and we named it Beak because it has a little beak after
it gets older. But we would like step away for a few minutes and it would be like,
and it's just like, oh, it's shat on the floor. I got to clean this.
My kids make the same noise. The thing is just always hungry and always unhappy.
Think of the draft house with you.
I showed my kids fellowship of the ring for the first time this weekend.
How did that go?
They loved it.
They loved it.
We watched a segment because I got, so it was on sale on Amazon to get the
Blu-ray extended edition trilogy and I only had it on DVD so I want on Blu-ray so I bought
it again and it's the extended version of the movie and so we had to watch it in like
Stints but they loved it and they it's like a little like intensive points but they were
fine with it.
Yeah.
That's a good movie but I feel like it does it's long. It's a a little like intensive points, but they were fine with it. Yeah. That's a good movie, but I feel like it does,
it's long, it's a traveling movie.
There's a part,
there's a part,
I love how kids react differently to stuff.
There's a part when they're in the mines
and they're fighting the orcs in the room, right,
before the cave troll comes in.
And so they're all doing their stuff.
And at one point, Errorgorn has a pretty good swipe at one of them
and lops off his head and like,
blood starts out.
And I knew that was coming.
And I was wondering how my kids would deal with that.
And that was going to be a good gauge.
Because I think fellowship actually
is probably the most like,
nice of them.
And they get darker and darker.
So I'm like,
let's see how well they do.
And I may or may not stop.
And so I turn and watch them.
And I have a five year old and eight year old. And I'm like, let's see how well they do. And I may or may not stop.
And so I turn and watch them and I have a five year old and eight year old. And I watch and the eight year old was wrapped in a blanket. And when that happened, she jumped and like hit part of her
face. I turn and look at my five year old. She's sitting next to me in the couch and she just
immediately turns at me with a smile and just laughing at how funny that was.
I was like, you're little so.
Play it again.
Yeah, but we both looked at each other and just had this little laugh moment as we watched
an orc's head fall off.
It was fantastic.
Fantastic.

You should maybe take her to therapy.
So, but she's free.
She's had other stuff too, like little kid,
like we watched Goosebumps, the movie,
and that's like kids horror movie,

and they were like intense moments like that
that she gets like all freaked out,
but this was nothing to her.
