Please welcome to the stage, Gustavo Sorola, Blizzbear, Brian Gar, and birthday girl Barbara Duncan-Man.
Starting point is 00:00:59 Happy birthday indeed, Barbara. Thank you so much. Thank you. We're going to sit down, have an old-fashioned podcast, like our grandparents used to do, back in the Depression. Thanks for having me. This is the most important I've ever felt. It was the 13th by far.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Thanks for coming out and doing this. Brian is one of my favorite regular podcast guests. He got to sit in for me a couple of weeks ago. We did a pre-tap. I was supposed to be on that pre-tap, but I had a COVID scar. I had come in very close contact with someone who had tested positive. Out of an abundance of caution, I didn't want to go in and get anyone sick. I didn't end up getting it. But Brian, like I texted Brian
Starting point is 00:01:47 like the night before like, hey, sorry for the short notice, but can you do it? He's like, oh, yeah, absolutely no problem at all. I believe your exact words were someone who tested positive for COVID coughed in my mouth. Listen, I don't want to get into specifics, but I may or may not have tasted COVID. What did it say? It might be delicious. I'm sorry to tell you. That's why it's so contagious.
Starting point is 00:02:09 That's why it's so contagious. Also, Brian, I haven't seen your face before because we were in the back. It's dark, so I'm so safe. I'm so sorry. I was like, oh, this is what Brian looks like. We've been talking, like, we've been talking for about 30 minutes. I have no idea what you look like in the dark. Isn't it beautiful? Yeah. It was like, we've been talking for about 30 minutes. Like I have no idea what you look like in the dark. Isn't it beautiful?
Starting point is 00:02:25 Yeah. It was like we were all a witness protecting back there. We needed our voices modulated. Yeah. And then Fat Tony told me to kill. There's like a dim red light and that's it. You can really see each other. And of course for the first time on RT Podcast,
Starting point is 00:02:40 we have Blizz joining us. Woo! Woo! Woo! Yo, talk about being... This is my first time at RTX. Talk about being on the RTX podcast. Excuse me?
Starting point is 00:02:50 I'm like, I'll take this. Well, yeah, we just announced at the Squat Team Force panel yesterday that you'll be joining us here in Austin as one of the content creators. Gus, are you ready for the chaos? I am so ready. I'm super excited. I love it anytime that you visited and we collaborated.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Now to have you full time sharing that space with us is going to be so great. You just hired a villain, so. Good, ready. We needed a new one. Gus is not a villain anymore. Now I'm just like, down slow. You saw how I almost died, just jogging 15 feet.
Starting point is 00:03:23 It's awful. We came out and I was like, that's feet. It's awful. It came out and I was like, that's the longest walk of my life. Having this walk. I was like, you walk right by a perfectly good couch. I know. He's gonna sit on it. I know. Yeah, thank you for keeping that couch warm.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Yeah, it was a long walk, but it's good to be up here. It's good to finally be back in person with everybody. I think we couldn't have expected that. We were gonna have two virtual RTX's the last two years. Oh, I know. It was, I've been talking to so many people who have been meeting throughout the weekend of just like how nice it is to be back
Starting point is 00:03:59 and actually seeing you guys here in person and being able to like celebrate RTX and you guys and the community. It's like, I, man, virtual, it's fun. I was happy we were able to do it and actually be able to put on a show, but it's not the same. Seeing a comment of like, yay. Well, it's funny, like when you're doing virtual, I don't know what you all set up is like, but it's like, I was alone in my spare, in my spare bedroom that I converted into an office, and you're laughing and trying to like,
Starting point is 00:04:27 you're having a good time, but it's like, there's no sound, I'm all alone in a room. Yeah. If you were looking at this from a third person perspective, it would look like I was insane. Gosh, you gotta add a fun light. Add like a cute little pink light, and then it makes it a little bit more fun.
Starting point is 00:04:41 Yeah, well you're used to do it, because you're a streamer, full time streamer. Yeah, I'm a full time streamer. Can I just say, everyone here is so nice. I've been running into a lot of community members and respectfully fuck you for being nice. How dare you? How dare you?
Starting point is 00:04:55 I was like, everyone's just like, oh, Blizz, I'm so excited that you're here and I'm like, I think. They're nice and also so beautiful. I know, it's annoying. It's annoying how beautiful they are. We have the best looking audience. Y'all were, and also, thank you to everybody
Starting point is 00:05:11 who came out to comedy night last night. That was so fun. It was, and it's so easy when the crowd is into it. They're already 75% of the way there. And so you just say hello. It's like, because they're already like 75% of the way there. Yeah. And so you just say hello and everybody's like, ah! Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:30 That's great. It's great as opposed to like opening for karaoke night, food or bill, and like nobody's into it. Yeah, I was talking with Charlotte yesterday and she was talking about how she was like, oh, I don't know, I gotta go out there. I'm gonna be first on Comedy Night. And I was like, you're set.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Like, everyone is already there wanting to laugh and have a good time. Like, I get protective of the standup, like I've been doing this long time. Like, y'all got a lot to learn. Charlotte got up and murdered. Like, just crush. I was like, what, what about, I'm just not talented.
Starting point is 00:06:00 I guess. Charlotte is like, hands down one of the funniest people I know. So funny. You guys watched Survivor Block Island? Yeah. I guess like Charlotte is like hands down one of the funniest people I know so funny You guys watched Survivor block Island? Yeah Every every moment of that Charlotte was just crushing me with her jokes It was insane and also on ship hits the fans super fun like she is just like the funniest and Some and people were like also yelling out a lot from the crowd and And like, I forget that it's kind of like, almost not encouraged, but like, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:06:27 You know, because like, but I had kind of like comedy club mindset. And I heard this guy like two, like he was like a row in front of me. He was kind of yelling. And I kind of reverted back to like stand up. I like, I wanted to go shut the fuck up there performing. But then everybody's like, no, no, no, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:06:43 I was like, oh yeah, yeah, it's cool. Like, it's fine. It's a good space. Everyone, everyone, it was totally positive. Everyone's on the same team at something like this. Right. That's true. Yeah, but it's, I was, we did a black box down panel yesterday and you know, there's a couple hundred people in the room and it's funny because it's such a weird or a different energy. Like when you put a podcast out, like, you know, in the black box down example, you know, you put it out in tens of thousands,
Starting point is 00:07:07 if not hundreds of thousands of people, listen to this, but you have like zero feedback. Humble, bro. You can, you can, yeah, I'm joking. It's a word-winning podcast. Yeah, black box down. And, but there's zero feedback. Like you, you're recording,
Starting point is 00:07:24 we record virtually, it's me and Chris in a Zoom call audio only. But we have just a couple hundred people in the crowd for taping during our panel, or it wasn't even taped for just our panel yesterday. And people are laughing or getting excited about it. Like you said, shouting. And it's just so much more energetic. It's the best. It's the best.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Yeah. That's so exciting. I know sometimes people don't put the best. It's the best. Yeah. That's so exciting. I know sometimes people don't put nice comments, majority of the time. Yeah. On the internet? On the internet. I mean, I saw a comment that was like,
Starting point is 00:07:53 BlizzBare looks nice today and I was like, I'll take it. But that's really cool because you get to see that you're making it impact in the content that you're doing. Yeah. That's what I love so much about like, research you, not to like be gushy about it, but. Be gushy.
Starting point is 00:08:07 You can't be gushy. The only, yeah. Oh, hell yeah. Hey. No, no. Fuck you. You gotta choose. If you're gonna be nice, you're gonna be the villain.
Starting point is 00:08:21 What are you gonna be? I'm gonna be the villain. You all look good today. I can't go too high. That's not me. Yeah. It's like the hero and also the hero. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:33 I've met a lot of people here who are at RTX for the first time ever. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Hell yeah. Who's been to every single one? There's like a couple of people back there. I see one hand I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Starting point is 00:09:03 I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Yeah. So, that was an impressive stack of badges to flip through. I think you and I, and maybe Jeff, are the only people who have been to every single RTX including the international ones. It's a lot harder. It's a lot harder. How many is that like 15 RTX's? Well, it's 12 and Austin alone.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Yeah, I think 15. Australia, Australia. England. England. What we did, one in England? Where do we, where do we, we did two in England. Sixteen. Yeah, Australia. England. England. What we did, one in England? Where did we, we did two in England. 16. Yeah, there you go. Thank you for the correction.
Starting point is 00:09:29 You know better than we do. We were there. You're up both. Hell yeah. That's like the stinky dragon bang when you were like, oh, what? When I was like, high-bork song or something, I was like, 54. Yeah. Because I'm in it.
Starting point is 00:09:42 I know that one. Thank you. I'm so glad we're not doing the virtual one, but mainly because last year I had to write all of them. Oh, like every day they were like, just script that out. It'll be fine. I'm like, you do not know what you're asking for. Like for all. And so I wrote them out. And then Patrick, I think, wrote me and he was like, yeah, they just need to be longer. Oh, no. It was the hardest I've ever worked on anything. So yeah, they just need to be longer. Oh no. It was the hardest I've ever worked on anything.
Starting point is 00:10:08 So yeah, it's nice. Can you write three days of talking? No, thanks. A lot of it was like queuing up stuff, you know. And now here's a clip from Ruby or whatever. But you know, you have to put in some like comedy bits or whatever. And then after a while, it's just like, I don't know what's funny.
Starting point is 00:10:22 And I'm like, I have no idea. Oh man, that sounds brutal. Yeah, it was. But yeah, it's great like, I don't know what's funny. Yeah. Like, I have no idea. Oh, man, that sounds brutal. Yeah, it was. But yeah, it's great to be back. Everybody is so nice. Like, people come up, even to me, like, come up and say nice thing. The only mean comment I got was from Eric. Because on.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Careful, he has a microphone. I'm summoning him. On my bio on the app, if you see me, you're like, that doesn't look like Brian at all. It's because I don't really have a headshot. That's from a wedding I went to in 2011. We're, there's photographers everywhere. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Headshot is a decade old. It's the egggate old. It's 20, I don't know where they got it. Like, I didn't give that to them. Eric, I have a bone to pick with you. What did I do? So you didn't do anything in particular. This is also not that big of a deal.
Starting point is 00:11:15 So I apologize for riling you guys up. So my dad makes the RTX app, if you guys have been using it. Great. He does a great job. And my mom helps as well with putting in the info and checking all the typos, because there's a lot of them. But my dad messaged me and he goes, do you have a photo of Eric?
Starting point is 00:11:35 And I go, do I have a picture of Eric just on my phone? And he goes, he doesn't have a headshot. And I was like, could you just Google him? There's no good photo of you. Well, look at what they're working with. What the fuck? Eric, you have nice photos. You're my don't listen to the part. You're like, you're here.
Starting point is 00:11:52 You Google Eric and it's like a bunch of pictures of you like in sunglasses like this. Those are good photos. It's a personality pic. My photo when the app first came out, they asked for a picture and I said, yeah, can it be this? And it was a dog named Tuna that has just like a fucked up face.
Starting point is 00:12:14 And they're like, I mean, I guess, and I went great. So it's just every time it was, I was in mega 64 and it just said, at this panel Eric Bedouard and this fucked up dog, just a monster. What is it with you and fucked up animals? Oh, I'm all about it. You won't stop sending me pictures of that cat.
Starting point is 00:12:31 There's a cat on Instagram. Ho-Ro-Du, who's a South cat, yeah! The South Korean cat, did you know? I thought it was an American cat. Oh, South Korean cat. Did you know that Siamese cats or the hairless cats can be fat? Oh, like those sphinxes or whatever.
Starting point is 00:12:51 Did you ever think about what if a butter ball turkey was also just walking around with a stoop? You could pet it. Barbara hates it. I hate it. Yeah, I keep sending it to her and I'm just like, well, look at this thing and then she's pissed. I am never giving you my number. No, no, it's fine. I'll just DM you. Don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:13:09 The energy of I'm going to call you at 3 a.m. You're like, hey, can you pick me up? And I'm like, you're never going to believe what's happening. There's a cat here. There's a cat here. Come pick me up. Bring a camera. Okay. Eric's a wild one. I was at the ultra bad mixture. Mixed it last night. Was anyone at the mixture last night ultra badger holders? And I saw Eric and I assume you were many drinks in. Oh, yeah. And he just kept going like this.
Starting point is 00:13:37 We decided it's been a while since we've all been together for RTX. So I was drinking with my buddy, Jomi. I think he's here. Hey, what up? And we were drinking with him and a couple other people. And then we started going, it's been a while. What if we just start doing this?
Starting point is 00:13:53 Like, what if we just brought that back? And then we kept doing it, and then somebody just went, and it was like a revelation. And we did that, and the rest of the night was walking down the street going, you guys wanna go to this park? Like, just hit it hard, but then our other friend Andrew was real drunk
Starting point is 00:14:10 and he got like real shy about it. So he was going, I'm gonna go get a drink. If you're gonna do it, own it. Oh, he got nervous. He's shy. That ultra-badge party was a lot of fun. That was so cool.
Starting point is 00:14:25 That was like, what a great time. Like to close down a bar and be like, us only. No one else. He drinking. We went to the chat and I went to the Valhalla, the esports team. That was super, that's right. It's so much fun. I was just, and by the end of it,
Starting point is 00:14:45 and like, we got to drink for free. So I was just like getting a beer in a shot every time. And by the end, I'm just sitting by myself, like, and they have like, consoles lining the walls, and I'm just drunkenly playing Contra. And, like, you're just dog shit at it. Like the old NES Contra? NES, yes.

Starting point is 00:17:16 as I was in the photo booth. It's great. If you haven't seen it, go check out the Rooftopheat Instagram story. I think people might be interested to hear from you, Blizz, about your journey making content on the internet. Because you're like fresh face to the internet.
Starting point is 00:17:33 I don't have fresh face to that or net. You're a baby. Do not look at my pen tweet on Twitter. It's going to look very inappropriate, but I swear I'm only a racing a whiteboard, so don't look at that. Do not, I see some people pulling out their phones, don't do that, thank you.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Oh, I thought you were gonna be like, for your only fans. No, it just sucks, because I forget where the camera stops. So like if I'm under the table doing this. We now have that as a gift, I just find it out. That'll be forever immortalized. So you only started streaming here recently during the pandemic, right?
Starting point is 00:18:03 Yeah, I'm a product of the pandemic. I started with my Xbox no camera I started playing Stardew Valley and start does anyone play Stardew Valley? Dude, oh my god It's like it's like a very a hallmark movie like you're leaving your corporate job to go work in a farm Your grandpa Yeah, and stuff so like I was living in my hallmark dream And then I got a PC, started streaming, started showing my face. And then the clip started coming out, and I started making a amazing community.
Starting point is 00:18:33 I got to meet some amazing community folks today, like Pink, I Pink. And I don't know, it's just been kind of a fun experience. And then I shot my shot one day with a racer ticket get them said, I would like to hang out with you. And now I'm here, so. It worked. It worked out. Yeah. It was such a cool moment to know that we were going to announce
Starting point is 00:18:56 that you were joining us during the squad team force panel and that you were waiting in the audience. You know, we just had to get to that point to announce it. And then it's like, oh, yeah, we make room. And then immediately we put you to work and it's like yeah Immediately we're filming a video right now. Gus. I cried in my shower after Because I was like so happy. I was like everyone here. It's like really. I'm not gonna cry right now. Hold on. I'm not gonna cry Okay, um don't cheer for my team
Starting point is 00:19:19 No, no Tears we want the tears. Thank you But I I cried at dinner. I cried at dinner and I cried at the shower because like this is like a new journey for me in terms of content creation. For the longest time I felt like I didn't know what I was doing but like I felt confident in what I was doing. So, for this to kind of translate into, now you have to do stuff for Rupert J.I. I'm sitting here like, hey, I'm proud of you get to do stuff for Rupert's team. I'm sitting here like,
Starting point is 00:19:46 hey, I'm proud of you, Blitz. I am. That's awesome. That's awesome. That's awesome. That's awesome. That's awesome. That's way more successful that like I started streaming
Starting point is 00:19:55 during the pandemic. It is not taken off at all. It is a max. You are here. You are here right now. But I have a max of 21 viewers at any time. And it's only people in their 20s kicking the shit out of me and Mario. Well, you have a very garbage gamers.
Starting point is 00:20:15 You have a very specific format. And your format is, come fight me. It is. It is. Yes, because I think I'm being cool and challenging. But it just turns into elder. I think every time. I think you're cool. I mean think I'm being like cool and like challenging, but it just turns into elder I think every time I think you're cool. I mean, I'm the youngest one here. I think you're cool Yeah, that's nice. You're the coolest boomer I ever met. I'm not a boomer. I'm not why are we people called Gen X boomers
Starting point is 00:20:37 It's like we got none of the benefits of being boomers But we're still called boomers because nobody knows the difference. Which is the most Gen X thing They forgot. You just explained it in a boomer way. I know. I mean, I'm like, oh, okay, yeah. God, our music was better. I'm still so surprised that Blizz agreed to come join our team after his introduction was playing
Starting point is 00:20:56 Shurides with Chris Demaris as a teammate. What is a camp fighter? Chris was like, oh, I saw fire and I saw fighting. And I was like, oh, like a firefighter. That's cool. And Chris is going, camp fighter. And that was the moment where I was like, Chris, how are you you?
Starting point is 00:21:14 How do you do that? Guess what? That thought never stops. He told a story on the black box down panel yesterday about how he was flying somewhere and got on the wrong plane. We got a spit-tick. I don't know how you do- Like, homoloam style? Yeah, like he was on the plane and someone came to get in his seat
Starting point is 00:21:39 and they were like, I think you're in my seat and he was like, no, I'm a Leven-A and they're like, no, I'm a Leven-A and the flight attendant came over, they're like, both of our boarding passes are a Leven-A, the flight attendant to look seat and he was like, no, I'm a Levin A. And they're like, no, I'm a Levin A. And the flight attendant came over. They're like, both of our boarding passes are a Levin A. The flight attendant had to look at them and be like, I don't think you're on the right plane to Chris. He wakes up and Hawaii. Didn't he also think his panel was in your room
Starting point is 00:21:55 during ship hit the fan? He did just come wander in. Yeah, and everybody was super happy to see him, but I was never explained. Look, I love Chris. There is no thought behind those eyes, and this is the most precious thing in the world, where I'm like, I adore that, I really do.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Yeah. I wanna see that speech from Quint and Jaws about the cold dead eyes, the unfeeling eyes, and just applied to Chris Domeris. It's like, I feel like, you know how there are multiple universes, like everyone's like different. There's a universe full of lizard people.
Starting point is 00:22:28 I feel like Chris is the one thing or person that just stays the same in every universe. So like everyone's lizard people, but then there's Chris. Chris is a human being a human in a lizard universe. And I just, I believe that to be true. I am not convinced. I wrote an entire short a few years ago about Chris secretly being an alien. Oh yeah. And I was writing that from experience.
Starting point is 00:22:54 Do you think he's learning well about the human race? I think I honestly sometimes I see him like staring at things or like listening really intently to something and I'm like he's learning. It's happening. Studying. That's when I'm like, are we bullying Chris? We might be. Do you ever see him like talking into his wrist
Starting point is 00:23:11 or like filing reports? He does talk to himself a lot. Yeah, yeah. I think also when he writes, like when he's writing a script or something, he'll like act it out himself as he's writing it. So if you just see him, he's writing it. So if you just see him he's just going. I don't think is he okay, I didn't. No, this is yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:36 He sits next to me in our office and it's a joy. He's got like the weirdest assortment of things on his desk and in his drawers. He's got like a Microsoft keyboard from the 1990s, you know, like those wavy kind where your hands are separate. Oh, no, yeah, the one's split into, like, yeah. It's not the keyboard he uses. It's just unplugged on his desk.
Starting point is 00:24:00 Oh, he is sending that back to the mothership and I know it. I know it, because there's no reason you should have that. Maybe it's just a safety thing, like line us in a spot. Maybe. It's like, he's got the same keyboard as the rest of us, and then that one as well, off to the side. That keyboard has not been used since Quake.
Starting point is 00:24:19 You know. In case Quake, or in case Quake, or a Doom match break, I guess Doom's more recent recent doom has been out recently Chris Quaker wait, I have a question Barbara. So I'm a Lego head. I love Legos excellent Would you all like Legos? You all like building things Nice well, I've built five houses. So anyways, um Would you ever be interested in like building legos with me? 100%. 100%. Yes. We should have some Lego streams. We'll just chill and play some Lego.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Would you all be interested in watching us just build Legos and talk? I mean, that's just a podcast about boy. A couple of weeks ago, we did a kind of a test stream like that, where a podcast listener sent in like a custom Lego set they made of the Rusteath podcast set, along with a destruction book that's like this thick, how to build it all, and we spent- It did not get very far. We spent an hour and a half building it, and we built like the floor, and like four pillars in the background that support it.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Yep. And that was why they hired me, because I'm the expert Lego builder here. I think we got to step 45 out of like 650. That sounds fun, I hope you're honest. I kind of like that. That's very relaxing. So when you say you build Lego, is it like you build it from like a kit and an instruction book or do you come up with your own? Re-borrow.
Starting point is 00:25:42 Yeah. So I do the kits but like one day I would like to free-borrow it. I feel like that's a weird way. Like raw dog? Nope. It borough. Yeah. Yeah. So I do the kits, but like one day I would like to free borrow it. I feel like that's a weird way. Like raw dog. Nope. It's not any there. It's not any of the, um, just do it. Non-tech, no it Lego please.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Free hand. Just free hand Lego building. Free hand, yeah. Really fun. Um, but like there's so much that goes into like there's a legal Lego building. There's things that you can do. That's a legal. It legal? Like what? Like you'll get arrested. Like magic cards that you can do that's illegal. Illegal? Like what?
Starting point is 00:26:05 Like you'll get arrested? Like magic cards that you can't use in tournaments or something? Yeah, like basically that, like if you build, if you put a certain piece together, it's like a legal. I don't know what happens to you, I've never done it, but if someone has done it, the universe is for custs. You can call 911, the Supreme Court rules 6-3
Starting point is 00:26:24 that you cannot build Legos in that fashion. Y'all are so spoiled because when I was a kid and I'm gonna get boomer for a second, there were two kind of Legos, there were space Legos and fuckin' pirate Legos and you were one of the other. Wait, was that like when Jesus was born or something? Yeah, the 80s.
Starting point is 00:26:41 The 80s. Yeah, and my sisters and I would just like build swords. That's the only thing that they can do with them. I have a Lego sword. I also, so I'm a bladed bisexual. Did you say bladed? Bladed? Bladed like your blades on your own?
Starting point is 00:27:00 And I also rollerblade. No, so I have. They're so cool. Katanas and short swords and hatchets and stuff because like, you know, when I don't know if the world ever ends, you gotta be prepared. And I'll be that bisexual that is ready to, you know, fight some zombies or something.
Starting point is 00:27:14 I am a walking dead bisexual. I am so, so you guys remember Maryl? Maryl, so say to. She was like the sword lesbian. Yeah, no, we talked about it. Yes. On the February, always open. Yeah, and I was like,
Starting point is 00:27:31 She had a bunch of swords and blades and everything like that. I'm like, damn. I believe in collecting blades. I think it's fun. And honestly, if you ever take a picture with like a katana, you're automatically hot. So that's how you do it.
Starting point is 00:27:44 I'm gonna be knocking on your door when like civil war breaks out. I got you. You're automatically hot, so that's how you do it. I'm gonna be knocking on your door when like civil war breaks out. I got you. Oh, awesome, good, good. Remember that, because I'm gonna be like, I did not study for this final.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Like, please. In a testament to what a different world it is now versus back in the Depression when Brian and I grew up. Just hit our money under the mattress, because we didn't trust the bank. That's like, that's like 2 AD, right? Yeah, we got it cool. I went on a school sponsor trip to Florida.
Starting point is 00:28:10 We went to Disney World when I was in 9th grade. And we went to like Epcot and Magic Kingdom. And one of my friends, Frank, who's our DM in Heroes and Halfwits, bought a sword at Epcot Center and took it back on the plane with him. Yes. It's a Texas. And it was like, no big deal. It was just like a carry on.
Starting point is 00:28:30 It's like, oh yeah, I'm taking the sword with me. Cool, get on the plane. Wait, can, okay, so this is actually a serious quote. Can you do that? You cannot do that anymore. No, like pre-9-11 flying, you could kind of do whatever. Like, my mom put us on a plane. Like, you just put us on a plane to New Orleans
Starting point is 00:28:45 to go see my aunt. I was like, nine, my sister was five. She's like, I applied it to the To-Watch, and they did, it was great. You can't even bring a fingernail clipper onto a plane nowadays. But you can? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:28:58 I don't think so. They're weird about it. You can. OK, I know, but like even like small scissors and stuff they're like sensitive about. They'll like, you can't bring a knife. Or a katana. Well back then you could take a sword, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:09 It's not like that anymore. I got to take a trip to Disney World. So it was like one of those things where, I can't, I'm hung up on that. Our field trips were going to Austin from Wichita Falls Texas, like a five hour hot ass bus ride. This was one of those things where we had to sell candy from the start of the school year through like the first semester
Starting point is 00:29:27 Oh no I had to hustle Right and it's like you had to raise like two or three thousand dollars and then you could go and spring break That is unpaid labor because technically let's let's talk about it Technically you aren't getting any of that money you're just getting a trip Child labor was legal back then It was a very different world But yeah we went to we had taken a trip to Florida and we also took a trip to Washington, D.C.
Starting point is 00:29:49 As well. That's where I am. Yeah, nice. I enjoyed it. I was 14 at the time. So you don't have to legally say that. I remember I was really upset. I was, believe it or not, I was a huge nerd when I was a little kid.
Starting point is 00:30:03 And we had taken this trip to Washington, D.C. And one of the evening events was they were going to take us to the Hard Rock Cafe in Washington, D.C. But it's right next to Ford's Theater. Yeah. And I was like, are we going to visit Ford's Theater? And they're like, no, you're just going to the Hard Rock Cafe. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:17 I was like, can I go visit Ford's Theater? And I'm like, no, you have to stay in the Hard Rock Cafe. And I was so mad all night. It's like, I don't care about the Hard Rock Cafe. I would love to actually go see something more historic than this. Right, I don't need to see a signed picture of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Do you like history? I love it. Oh, okay. Gus is it? Don't clap to that. I am, I'm a clap to that. I was like, in college, I was never like the history kid or like geography kid.
Starting point is 00:30:46 I'm queer, I don't know where maps are, I don't know where I'm going. I have to, if something's five minutes away, I will Google Maps where it is because I don't know where it is. I was a science kid. I'm legally a biochemist. Oh, so pretty smart, just saying.
Starting point is 00:31:04 You are very smart. I'm intimidated. Have you seen me in a mong ask a man? I was flattered when you called me wise in the squad team force panel the other day. You just give me like wise. I'm going to make that like my Twitter bio. Yeah, we had a great question in the STF panel
Starting point is 00:31:18 when someone asked Blizz after we announced him joining the team of describing each one of us with one word. And Gus was wise. What was Chris again? Chris was like five sentences. It was like a testament. Testament to God or something. And then Blaine was straight. Yes. That's about it. He is the straightest person I've ever. That's why I want to bully him.
Starting point is 00:31:45 I don't know. I'm trying to be the villain again. I feel like I'm doing a great job. Thank you. Barb, what did I say to you? You weren't like scary. You said something about like scheming or something. Schemer.
Starting point is 00:31:56 Schemer. Because like most of our, I guess, experience together is playing among us. That's how like, Blizz and I, I guess, that's like most of our social interaction thus far, since you haven't moved to Austin yet. And I always feel bad because among us. That's how like, Blizz and I, I guess, that's like most of our social interaction thus far since you haven't moved to Austin yet. And I always feel bad because among us, like, that's a game you kind of love to be kind of sneaky. Mm-hmm. Barb, it's the thing that my community loves you. Like, I talked about this. My
Starting point is 00:32:15 blizzies love you, but they're like, you cannot trust her. I was like, I was like, you have like, Barb's like so great. And they're like, yes, we understand. You cannot trust her. And I was like, yeah, but like, Barbs looks so great. And they're like, yes, we understand. You cannot trust her. And I was like, okay. Duh, duh, duh.

Delta 8 is basically just less potent THC extracted from hemp, which means a smooth, stable, and most importantly, legal high.

Starting point is 00:36:29 It was, it's weird like, I feel like Among Us was one of those games that really exploded when we were all stuck at home. It's like I wanna hang out with nine of my friends and stab them in the back every now and then. It's like, if only there was a game for that. It's like, Among Us had already been out. And it's like everyone kind of-
Starting point is 00:36:44 In 2018. Right. Then people were like, Do you guys know that there was a game for that. It's like, just like, Amongus had already been out. And it was like, everyone's kind of- 2018. Right, then people were like- Do you guys know that? Amongus came out in 2018. Yeah. We played it in the 90s when it was just like sitting around in a room and we called it Mafia. Like, who's in the Mafia?
Starting point is 00:36:55 Zee-Bah-L's like, you know, I know they're different. Variations. I had never played Amongus and I played it on stream once again just getting wrecked by my 20 people watching. Ryan, I would stab you in the back, I'll be honest. Well, I did not apply it and people were like, I think Brian's the killer and I was like, no, I wasn't. I just jumped into a vent. There's no way I could have been there like dumb shit, only the killer can do that. Oops.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Yeah. Yeah, it's always, it's always really funny when you play with someone who's new in that game. It's like, either they're a really bad liar or they don't know what they're talking about. Yeah. Yeah. And yeah, I think it can go either way. Or if you're like me, you take the new players and you're like, Hey, you can trust me. Oh, Brian, would you trust me? Absolutely. Even now knowing that you would be like lying, I would still trust you. Thank you. I mean, the lie.
Starting point is 00:37:49 I can't, I mean, not trust you. You're just so nice. I'm a very nice person, just like in general. But like, I'm so pretty sad. I'm just very happy to be here, and I can't wait. Now I don't trust anything you're saying. I'm being honest. I swear.
Starting point is 00:38:08 He just jumped out of event. It's fine. That's like whatever. We're going to be doing a panel right after this, actually, the Among Us panel. If anyone's going to go to there. So Alfredo Diaz, he hosts like an Among Us lobby every Saturday. And so if you have us, you're just going to hang out,
Starting point is 00:38:23 do some games, some Q&A. I'm supposed to bring a roll of toilet paper because, I wanna explain. We're going camping up, cause we're shitting. My character, I usually have like the little toilet paper hat on and we're all gonna like wear little hats, but I forgot to bring one, so I might just go find one in the back.
Starting point is 00:38:42 Although I think they only have those industrial-sized toilet papers. Yeah. It they only have those industrial size for the favors. You have big ones? Yeah, big ones. You're going to have neck problems for the rest of your life. It's really just going to be a sun hat. Yeah. Back here, these are the little pro tip for you.
Starting point is 00:38:59 These are my favorite bathrooms in the entire convention. There's some right behind stage over here. They are my least favorite. Why? The woman's restroom back there. It's like a bomb went off. A bomb of shit and garbage. And it's smelled like that for years.
Starting point is 00:39:18 It's never changed. Every time I use that one, I'll have you go in there and sniff it if you want to. No, no, I'm good. I'm good. The men's one back here is like, it's always empty. And it's always fully stocked. It's great.
Starting point is 00:39:29 Yeah. I appreciate them being clearly marked too. Because I've been to so many bars here. And it's like, am I a martini glass or a bird? Oh. It's played by a barbers. Like, yeah, no, I'm dying in there. And we're all like, yeah, it's like totally fine.
Starting point is 00:39:43 Like, we're having the best time of our lives running out. Yeah, absolutely. I'm sorry, there. We're all like, yeah, it's like totally fine. Like we're having the best time of our lives running out. Yeah, absolutely. You're not. I'm sorry, you're shitting experience in this. Aren't you all master in the bathroom though? Like I've always heard that's like a trope that the women's bathroom. Girl, I have a thick white clothes.
Starting point is 00:39:56 Oh, sir. Every bartender will tell you. Ladies, the girls' bath, let's be honest, it's fucking gross. Thank you. Because it's not just like piss and shit. No, no, no, we're good, we're good. Oh. Yeah. We're just like piss and shit. No, no, no, we're good, we're good. Oh.
Starting point is 00:40:05 Yeah. We're good. I got you. Ladies are gross. And we own it. Not just piss. I like as a kid. Do you know what a vagal response is?
Starting point is 00:40:18 Yes. When your blood pressure drops to zero, so like, I didn't like any discussion of lady topics, like periods or whatever I would just pass out. I mean it was like a defensive. You know periods just exist right? Yeah I just don't like I mean I'm okay with them now like theory but I would just like as a kid you were terrified. I have a scar right here from somebody like in a chat room when I was 16 talking about her period and I just like, excuse me, and I just went to the bathroom and cast here. That's so weird.
Starting point is 00:40:51 That's so weird. I didn't say it was funny. It's just a real story. No, that's weird. It's weird how the human body can have reactions like that. Like some people, if they see blood, or like a specific thing, it's just like your body, your brain doesn't know what to do, your blood pressure, like has a weird blip
Starting point is 00:41:10 and you just like faint or just pass out, or you feel woozy or sick. Or you're just Gavin and you say a word and he gags. Oh, yeah. Wait, but like, do you watch those like videos of like surgery and stuff? I wanted to be a doctor. I'm doing great.
Starting point is 00:41:23 You watch so. Willingly. Yeah. I wanted to be a doctor. I'm doing great. Willingly. Yeah. I wanted to be a doctor and like, OK, fair enough. OK. You can call me doctor blizz now. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:41:32 OK. I went to be a doctor, so I would watch like a lot of those tic-tocks of like surgery stuff. And I'm like, this is so gross, but like I'm intrigued at this point. Oh god. I don't know if I can do that. Do you watch any of those TV shows like my feet are killing
Starting point is 00:41:44 me or Dr. Pimple Popper? Yeah. So some of those pimples are just cysts though. Like the ones on YouTube and it just like goes for like two minutes. I cannot watch those pimple popping videos. Not because they're gross or I find it like hard to watch. It's because I'm like, just pull it, just pull it out.
Starting point is 00:42:02 And they're like digging and like getting it like doing like little tiny piece by piece. I'm like, just pull it, just pull it out. And they're like digging and like getting it, like doing like little tiny piece by piece. And I'm like, just grab it and pull it. No. And it goes on for like three more minutes. You're gonna make sure you get everything. No, you don't want everything. You don't want it.
Starting point is 00:42:16 I know. I'm just too impatient. I, I, I, I too at one point back a long time ago, a million years ago, I wanted to be a doctor. And I had, I was doing an interview at the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. And as part of the interview, I had to go out there for the weekend. And there were a bunch of us, a bunch of stupid little nerds.
Starting point is 00:42:34 And as part of that interview, they took us to the Bentop hospital in Houston, to the ER and the trauma section. And they were like, oh, here, look, this guy just went through a windshield. We're working on him right now. They're like, here, follow us to the basement. They took us to the basement where the mord was. And I remember one of the doctors went over and opened up a drawer that was filled with livers.
Starting point is 00:42:57 And pulled the human liver out. I was like, here's a normal one. He's like, oh, look, this guy was in alcoholic and pulled out this liver that was like eaten by cirrhosis. I, is this a skull- It's a scar attack. Yeah, I think it was, I think it was to like, weed out people who might be queasy about this kind of thing.
Starting point is 00:43:14 Oh man, well, I feel like I just make, be making bad jokes the whole time and because I was so uncomfortable, I'm gonna liver, I hardly knew it. I'm so inappropriate at that time though. I remember there was this one person on the tour who was like obviously getting very upset about all of this. And you know, when we were in the morgue, there were all these metal tables everywhere.
Starting point is 00:43:35 And there were extension cords that come down from the ceiling. You could, and then one of the people on the tourist, why are there retractable extension cords on the ceiling? And the doctor said, oh, that's where we plug our saws in. And they went to another drawer and pulled out a saw. Oh, it was like, see, we have to use power tools during a... It is funny, there's a certain amount of carpentry involved. That's surgery.
Starting point is 00:44:00 Like my aunt, well, she was my grandmother, she said my great aunt, she was a surgeon, and she was like that. I met her after she was, but she was my grandmother, she was my great aunt, she was a surgeon, and she was like that. I met her like after she would, but she was like kind of pioneering. She was like the first female surgeon in Louisiana, and like she was like retired, like when I really knew her, but she never got married,
Starting point is 00:44:14 so she just lived in this big house, and we would come in and she would like, make us look at shit in microscope. Like all, and she like knew how to separate, conjoined twins, like wrote a book about it. And I just how to separate, conjoined twins, wrote a book about it. I just remember thinking, I'm not qualified to even be in this house. She was so smart, I was like,
Starting point is 00:44:32 oh, thank you. Do you have any candy? I just thought there was hard candy here, not where there's some sorry. Where there's original perhaps. Yes. What's your favorite candy, everyone? Favorite candy? I'm partial to chocolate, all kinds of chocolate.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Hold on. Candy and chocolate. Do you qualify those as the same thing? Because I think there's chocolates and there's candies. Candy's near like sour things and gummy. Sure. I'll agree with that. Okay, if we're going to be nitpicky.
Starting point is 00:45:08 But they call Snickers a candy bar. Yeah. Oh my god. But there's more things in it. You're right. There's the caramel, the candy, whatever the fuck that is. I had a drama. Did I?
Starting point is 00:45:19 Did I? I was going to say because I like I used to an ice cream truck driver as well. I know look okay Hold on hold on. I just blizzle or time. I used to be an ice cream truck driver. I used to work for the government I used to be a cracker-brow retail worker JC pennies and all that stuff, but I used to be an ice cream truck driver and like I love candy so much and then what's your favorite? So you're an expert. Yeah. So the sour straws. Oh, that's a good one. The sour straws are really good.
Starting point is 00:45:48 What's your favorite ice cream? OK, there's two. The crybaby ice cream and also what's crybaby ice cream? You know, like crybaby, like candy? Yeah. Were you like cry? Yeah. Those are so good.
Starting point is 00:45:59 Yeah, they have an Italian ice. What? And it's sour, it's really good. I want strawberry shortcake bars. Mm. Oh. I have taste, thank you. Let's feel like more than just ice cream.
Starting point is 00:46:11 That's a lot. It's an experience. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. That's what I tell people about me. Blizzbear is an experience. That's up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:18 Wait, maybe that was on the drum. I think Blaine always thinks you're messing with him whenever you talk about one of your previous jobs. Because you'll tell a story like that, then you'll leave the room, and then Blaine always thinks you're messing with him whenever you talk about one of your previous jobs Because you'll you'll tell a story like that then you'll leave the room and then Blaine will turn him and go Is he fucking with me? No, is that was that a true story or is he making that up? So you know how like resting bitch face exists, right? I have a resting bitch voice So like sometimes I say things and people are like are you serious about that? And I'm like, yeah, what I like to you Do I look like someone who would lie?
Starting point is 00:46:46 A resounding yes. This is why I'm the villain, OK? This is my origin story. This is the first research eighth podcast. The best candy is Gobstoppers, by the way. Right. I will win. Because you don't really want them,
Starting point is 00:47:04 but they're always around around and they last forever. So it gets you like 60% of what you want. I walked in here trusting you. Yeah. And I like, it sucks that I have to leave this panel with an enemy. But you know, it's fine. Several, actually.
Starting point is 00:47:22 Similar candy discussion is torn apart. Similar to sour straws, I really like sour patch kids. Yeah, I think those are very excellent. What's your favorite flavor of sour patch kids? All of them. I'm not picky. I will just grab a handful and just shove them into my mouth. Have you ever sucked on a sour skiddle so hard that the roof of your mouth is bleeding? Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:47:46 Yeah, yeah. Captain Crunch, sour skiddles, yeah. I know you have, because you tweeted that. And then I said, happy pride. I thought it was a universal experience, and I wasn't sure. Blood? The top of your mouth was? Yeah, it's like you suck on a skiddle so hard that-
Starting point is 00:48:02 The blood abs to the feet. Yeah. It's like the little secret ingredient. It's just pride suck on the skittles so hard that the blood adds to the Yeah, it's like the little secret and it's just pride things, you know, I had a really embarrassing moment with skittles the other day Someone was talking about like oh, which like colored you want and I said something about the brown skittles And someone's like there's no brown skittles us like there's brown skittles right there and they're like those are purple And I go no, they're brown. I thought they I thought there were brown skittles right there and they're like those are purple and I go no they're brown I thought they I thought there were brown skills my entire life. I did not know they were purple That's how you learned your color blah That aren't skittles all fruit flavors. What's the brown fruit? I don't know it looks so brown Banana
Starting point is 00:48:39 I'll take the coconut the coconut husk skittle Take the coconut husks, get all. Yeah. That we had a great moment in Survive Block Island, where Trevor was the host, and he's color blind. And he was trying to guide us through what we were gonna be doing for a challenge. And what did he say, he said, then you're gonna jump on the purple platform?
Starting point is 00:49:00 He said the blue block over there. The blue block, and everyone was like, what are you, what blue block? Everyone's looking everyone's looking around like what's he talking about? It was not a blue block. It's purple. Purple. You were all like, oh, okay the purple one got it Every now and then he has to like when he's getting dressed in the morning He goes just do these two things go together They look great sweetie Hey Barbara, you could set him up for failure. I could.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Be the bit look. I believe in being the villain. To be the villain that you want to see in the world. Yes. When the opportunity arises, you take it. Oh, no. That is how I'm here to make sure Barbara becomes a villain too. I already am.
Starting point is 00:49:39 We're talking about Survival Island. We're going to have the reunion panel tomorrow. And I am so nervous because already a lot of people are just like, oh, I'm ready. I have things to say, and I know Gus has stuff to say. Yes, I have grievances to air. Oh, God. With people on that show. Not me.
Starting point is 00:49:56 Not you. You're a safe Barbara. I have beef with some of the other contestants, and the way things went down. I'm excited for season two, I'll be honest, especially in being on season two. Oh yeah, I'm like, this is gonna be fun. I'm excited for the cast. The lineup is beautiful.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Everyone is, I think stabby. There's a lot, obviously there's a lot of value in winning the team challenges. I think that's where our team got screwed over in season one. We sucked. We were not good, and we paid the price very quickly. You got rid of your best player in the first vote accidentally. Did not set you up for success.
Starting point is 00:50:37 Yeah, it did not go well. Yeah, try to plan a little better than we did. Wait, did you all want to rock? Yes, we went to rocks in episode one Yeah, and then the people Voting did not coordinate appropriately But it was just a train wreck. It was just a train wreck. Oh, no, okay. Well, I'm excited though Um, hopefully I don't give it a face and that's all I really care about
Starting point is 00:51:04 You won't you'll be like I accidentally manifested that so though. Hopefully I don't get voted out first and that's all I really care about. You won't. You'll be. I feel like I accidentally manifested that. So you jank so hard. Yeah, that was my goal. It's like I just don't want to be first. I don't think I'm going to win, but I don't want to be first. Yeah, that's where I'm at. Do you also do like challenges or is that you get to be like Minecraft, right? Yeah. Who can build a house? It was like some of it was my craft related challenges and then some of it wasn't. There was a mix of it. Some of it was like custom games. Like there was the first challenge we did, I think in episode one was you had
Starting point is 00:51:35 to like light a fire at one spot and then put down like kindling or something to make it travel to another spot. So some understanding of the game that you need to have because you have to know like what would light the basic mechanics. I'm story producing season two. So there's some understanding of the game that you need to have because you have to know like what would light and what would be the basic mechanics. Yeah. I'm story producing season two. So I need the lot.
Starting point is 00:51:50 There were other portion, there were other games that were very much like platformers, which like jump and do things. I think we've also, we've talked about this before. None of it is scripted at all except like the description of a challenge is obviously scripted. So you have something to go off of. But story producer, that's essentially someone who follows along what happens and finds moments to cut to in the edit of what's happening between the players.
Starting point is 00:52:15 It's not actually like, I write the story. Right, no, no, no, because I did it for the first time with Red Dragon in, and that was super fun. So yeah. You guys excited for that? Yeah, it's. I'm with Red Dragon in and that was super fun. You guys excited for that? Yeah, it is a hoot. So yeah, you'll enjoy it a lot.
Starting point is 00:52:31 So yeah, I'm excited about this. I was like, I love anything reality TV related. I have a TV on my tattoo of a TV on my arm because of it. So any chance to sneak into a reality TV type of thing, I'm going to do it. Oh, you're going to have a blast. The cast for it, you guys see the cast? I am Gavin's in it.
Starting point is 00:52:54 Gavin, Meg, Michael, a little love triangle there. So we'll see what happens. I guess Andrew Patton too, that would make it a lot. Yeah. I didn't know he was going to be in it until the trailer. I didn't know this, but apparently Andrew Patton too, that would make it a... Yeah. I didn't know he was going to be in it until the trailer. I didn't know this, but apparently Andrew Patton is a huge survivor fan, like master survivor fan. That tracks.
Starting point is 00:53:12 I didn't know it either, but I'm not surprised. Somehow it makes sense, yeah. It was a... I just started. My partner got me into it and I was like, okay. It's a great show. And then once I got asked, I was like, okay, I'll just study and see how it works out. I'll be fine. I think you're going to do really well, I'll just study and see how it works out. I'll be fine.
Starting point is 00:53:26 I think you're gonna do really well. I am sweating. I am sweating in the tank top that says, make piss right now. We should, yeah. You guys seen the back of Blizz's tank top. You should show them, show them. I love this shirt.
Starting point is 00:53:38 It says, make water. Drink water, make piss. Make. And we said make water, drink piss. Make. And we said make, make water drink piss. That's right. Now I want to make a shirt that says that. Make water drink piss. That's always my big fear.
Starting point is 00:53:56 That's why I went to the bathroom right before we started the podcast. Anytime we're on a panel, or anytime we're about to do a live stream, it's like, I don't want to have to pee. I don't want to have to leave the spot once. Because they just like, I had two beers. And just by the end, I was like want to have to pee. I don't want to have to leave the... I have to do that on the spot once, because they just, I had two beers, and just by the end I was like, I have to go pee.
Starting point is 00:54:09 So you're gonna be like my biggest fear is pee, and I was like, okay, cool. Yeah, I passed out once when I was pee. Yeah. It just me out. I got a bagel response. I got this scar. I got this scar because I passed out while peeing.
Starting point is 00:54:23 Like every time you peed. Yeah, I can't use a urinal because then I see it. Oh my god. I knew a guy whose mom made him sit while he peed. So he could not, he could not stand and peeing. Well, I'll be honest, that's comfortable. I'll be honest. It is more comfortable.
Starting point is 00:54:41 I've made the switch. You said now? Well, I mean, if given the options, I sometimes will. This time I was using the ear and I'll come back here. But sitting is more comfortable. You don't pee outside. That's I'm really into peeing outside now. I've done that before.
Starting point is 00:54:56 It's awesome. No, like, I'm sorry I moved the conversation to the past. People who know me, I don't mean to do this. Hey, welcome to the RT podcast. But like late at night, like I don't want to wake anybody. You know, if I'm just at my thing and I don't mean to do this. Hey, welcome to the RT podcast. But like late at night, like I don't want to wake anybody. You know, if I'm just at my thing and I don't want to go and like open, you know, because people might be sleeping. So I'll just go out to the side yard and pee.
Starting point is 00:55:13 And it's like dark. It's not like it's not like public and decent. Wait, is that something? Is a bathroom available for him? Yeah, totally. But it's also fun. I don't know. You get some fresh air, you get to see like sometimes the cars come in,
Starting point is 00:55:23 but it's like they probably don't see or they're going fast like they're not gonna call the cops Yeah, the same page. Yeah, that sounds awesome But I didn't realize this I went out the next day like after weeks of being you know in my side I know like the grass is dead like Where are you consuming I don't know if it's like... I think in general, yeah, like the uric acid or the urea just like binds to the chlorophyll. But now, so now my goal is to pee like a B
Starting point is 00:55:52 and see like how much of my name I can like spell out. I've peed outside, but only in times of need. Yeah. Because like when you have like this anatomy, it's difficult to pee in a way where you don't get it on yourself. I think I've told the story I'm always open before. So I apologize if you've heard it before,
Starting point is 00:56:11 but this was many years ago when I was single and I stayed the night with a person I had met. Oh yeah. And I had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night because I had been drinking. And he was staying in like, what is it called? Mother mother-in-law sweets? Or something like?
Starting point is 00:56:26 It's like a house outside of a house. And there was no bathroom in there. Rainy pod or whatever. Yeah, there was no bathroom in it. It was just like a bedroom and like a kitchen. And it was so dark. Oh, you're screw. Yeah, because you don't want to go in the big house.
Starting point is 00:56:39 I didn't know how to get into the house. It was so dark. So I just like squatted in his yard. And he was kind of a dick, no pun intended. But I went back in and I, because I didn't have anything to like clean up. So I just grabbed one of his shirts. Oh yeah. You were iconic. I didn't I didn't feel bad because the next morning I was like gonna be like all right cool like see you later like peace out And like I went like we woke up we went into the house where all his friends were staying apparently and they were like making breakfast
Starting point is 00:57:18 And they're like hey, what's up? You want some in the eaters like sure like I'll grab something and he goes So like you I'm gonna call you an Uber or something? And I was like, I'm leaving. Don't worry. I wanted to tell him I pissed on your shirt. Being your shirt, I'm out. And that shirt, what's the buy it now press on eBay right now? That's awful.
Starting point is 00:57:40 There's a, I feel bad. I don't feel bad. On road trips, like they sell, like, or if you're a guy, you don't even need anything, you can just like pee in a bottle. Like you can buy like a bottle of water and pee in like a plastic bottle. How do people do that? I don't know how to pee in a bottle. You just do it?
Starting point is 00:57:58 Yeah, hopefully. You're all, do y'all not get like scared or shy? Oh. Oh. Okay, so you have audacity, that's good. Yeah. You just gotta own it. But make sure that you need a bigger bottle than you. That is, because if you run out of bottle, that sucks.
Starting point is 00:58:15 It's a crisis. It's a crisis. It's a shame is going. Right, because you never think about the volume until you're in a situation like that. It's the same if you have to throw up. I've heard stories of people who thought they would have enough room and something and they did not.
Starting point is 00:58:31 I know, it's gross, I'm sorry. I should just stop talking for the rest of the podcast. No, I made this happen on accident. And that's what I'm just like. Sorry, the piss conversation. And I the drama, I don't mean to, okay? Everyone just forget about P. OK? They do never do throw up right and move away.
Starting point is 00:58:48 Because you know what I'm saying? They're always, and they just have a mouthful of something. But it's like, if you've ever vomited, it's like, violently being exited. It's like in Sarah At Live when they have the hose. Yeah. That's what it feels like. I don't know if you've ever seen Gavin throw up.
Starting point is 00:59:05 Yeah, I've never seen. I'm sure you all have. He throws up in the most British way, where he'll be like, yeah, oh, I was saying, Anyway, like, you just like, blit into a thing. It's like a whole experience if I feel like I have to throw up. I'm like, I need the room to myself.
Starting point is 00:59:27 I need like to take my shirt off. I'm crying. Yeah, yeah. It is such a compromising position. Like, I remember one time just puking, like just being drunk, you know, like early 20s, like drunk. And my roommate came running, are you okay? Do you need anything?
Starting point is 00:59:44 He's like, I need you to get the fuck out of this bathroom. Like, this is not my highlight. Get out. See, I'm that way with, oh, fuck, I'm gonna bring this back. I'm that way with peeing. You told us to stop. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I have like the smallest bladder in the world.
Starting point is 01:00:00 And like, I'm too, yeah. How are you holding up right now? I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Um, but like, there's moments where like, I'll be in an Uber and I'm to yeah I hold number right now But like there's moments where like I'll be in an Uber and I'm like Can we pull the Uber over It's like over in a highway. Can I piss on the highway?
Starting point is 01:00:21 Like oh, I didn't wait but and you were trying to shame Brian for his outdoor side yard being Yeah Because here's the thing if there's a bathroom available door side yard peeing. Yeah, because here's the thing, if there's a bathroom available, you already main character yourself by peeing outside. You might as well just wake up everyone like you. It's nature's bathroom. It's fine. Look, it's, yeah, I did feel bad about the grass.
Starting point is 01:00:37 Have you ever had it come out both ends like pees? And you know what I'm saying? I got that fun. And I just met you. Who is that? Who is that that happened? Yeah. Wait, what time?
Starting point is 01:00:49 Oh, you did too? Yeah. Food poisoning. Oh, like, sitting and barfing at the same time. Yeah, it'll do it. It's so worse. Yeah. I thought you meant pissing and shitting at the same time.
Starting point is 01:00:57 Like, every time. It was a guy. I got the majority of the time I got. Yeah. I was like, I met Brian for the first time. And Brian's just like, have you ever just like, let it all go? Yeah. Release your interventions. It's, it's awful. It is the worst like you, you, what do you prioritize? You curse. You curse evolution that led you to this body. Where
Starting point is 01:01:20 it's like, there's a limited number of inputs and outputs and we're going all output right now. You start, no, Gus, you start making a deal with God. And you have not talked for a bit. So in this one moment, if you save me, I will go to church once. Does that work? It's when you, yeah, but you have to throw your clothes away.
Starting point is 01:01:40 You know what I mean? Like that. Well, this one's just like, it's like you're naked on the toilet and just like, you're going through rouette. Oh, it's sweet of you to think I was not in public. We, we mentioned this to Eric earlier, but there was like for for our guests and people who are here, there's like a photo area where we're doing, you know, portraits and social media stuff for the event.
Starting point is 01:02:07 And they have a makeup person there who do like your makeup and your hair and make sure you look your best before you go and you take your photos. And it's a makeup person, a hair makeup person that we've worked with for many years. And before I took my photo, she's like, you know, touching me up, getting my hair ready. And then very casually, she asks me, so, and I feel bad for her. She asks me this regularly, but I still feel bad every time she asks. She asks, so, do you want me to like buzz that you know, Brown? Or, do you want to keep it?
Starting point is 01:02:37 Or you'll keep it? You want to keep it. I'm like, no, is it a brand, is it a branding thing? Or do you want to, sometimes I'm like, fine, yeah, buzz it, but today I was like, no, is it a brand? Is it a branding thing or do you want to? Sometimes I'm like, fine, yeah, Buzz it, but today I was like, no, you know what, I'm going to keep it. Let's just leave it. She's like, yeah, all right, fine, yeah, that's okay.
Starting point is 01:02:51 But I always feel so bad for her having to broach the subject. If she thinks it's an awkward thing or her self-conscious about it. I imagine that's tough for any makeup artist if they're doing grooming on someone. So do you like the way your eyebrows are shaped or do you want, do you like that you're hair that's coming out there? You want me to trim up those nose? Do you want me to reduce the grossness by a little bit or happy?
Starting point is 01:03:15 Are you a man? Yeah, so I was like, no, no, it's fine. I'm going to work with it. I'm going to go with it. Well, you look great. Thank you. I embrace it. I feel like I always say it's like the source of my power.
Starting point is 01:03:24 Oh, and speaking of great. Thank you. I embrace it. I feel I always say it's like the source of my power. Oh, speaking of which, thank you. I don't know if you saw Michael did a cosplay of me at the face gem. That is awesome. Did he really? That's incredible. I'll see if I can, I have, I saw it on Twitter. I'm going to show you a photo of it here.
Starting point is 01:03:42 It's very good. I saw him come out of the bathroom like maybe an hour ago and he was wearing like four different types of tie dye. He's just a fashion icon. What the fuck? He looks like either Bert or Ernie. I can't. Oh, there it is. I just realized we were on camera. You didn't know we were on camera? I was just turned over there and I was like,
Starting point is 01:04:20 Oh, hey. Let's close up on blues. The down stage monitor for us just shows the logo. Yeah, I just show the logo and I'm like, Let's get it. Close up on blues. The Downstage monitor for us just shows the logo. Yeah, just shows the logo. And I'm like, oh, it's sick. Nice. You all are just watching us. No, see, it's right there.
Starting point is 01:04:31 Oh! It just showed you for a second. And you can see the tally on the camera right there. Yeah, this is going up as a Rischief podcast on Monday. This is. Oh, that's smart. I'm going to leave. I can't be here.
Starting point is 01:04:47 This is the episode. It's weird because since we're doing it here live, I had to pre-tape the ads at home yesterday. So I was like, what's it? Yesterday was a Thursday. It was Thursday. So we'd gone out and done that mixer and been outside for like five hours. Then I went home and I turned on, you know, I set up my system, hit the record button, looked at myself in the monitor and I think my first words in that video were,
Starting point is 01:05:11 wow, I look like shit. Anyway, this episode of the Rustybark has brought you by it. I was like, I was like, sweaty and just like shiny from having been outside for five hours. But it wasn't like, I'm going to make myself look better. No, it was like, record. been outside for five hours. And what it wasn't like, I'm gonna make myself look better. No, it was like record. Ah, look terrible. Anyway. Yeah, I feel bad.
Starting point is 01:05:29 We did those mixers for the ultra-badge on Thursday. And we were outside for like you said, five hours. And I went directly to first night. We're in any of you guys at first night. It's a really cool event. But I had to apologize to every person I met that day of just, I was like, I'm sorry, I reek. Hi, Nier.
Starting point is 01:05:46 I'm disgusting. I promise I don't usually smell like this. I just spent some time in that bathroom. See, that was me meeting people for the first time, and I'm like, I'm gonna hug you, and you might feel armpit sweat, but I'm so sorry, I swear. We're all sweating, so it was great guys. Austin, Texas, baby. I feel, okay, so hot here, right? When I came here in February, it was 30 degrees.
Starting point is 01:06:10 I came to Austin because I was like, oh, it's gonna be warm weather. I don't have to worry about it. And then I was like, it's literally ice outside. Yeah, it's like the worst of the worst. And we have no grids, so. I was like, I hate this so much. But like, whether wise, I mean, it's okay.
Starting point is 01:06:29 We just go swimming a lot. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's a very swimming-based. OK. I'll learn this one. I know how to swim, but I'll learn to exist in Austin. There's a really cool app that you could get called Swimpley, where basically it's like
Starting point is 01:06:43 Airbnb, but for pools. And so you could like, people like rent out their pools by the hour. So if you want to go like, I've heard of that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the best. So if you ever want to like have a pool party,
Starting point is 01:06:53 you could just like rent a pool. You just rent a pool? Yeah. But don't invite Brian, because he'll pee. I don't know. That's how next to the pool. Brian, I will definitely pee in the pool. I was at the Y taking my daughter to the Y to...
Starting point is 01:07:05 Why, don't admit this. And I was so hungover from the night, so I just felt like alcohol, just like sweating out of me. And you're like a direct sunlight, but I was still proud of myself. Don't they put like the Diane? That's a, that's a Thoreta Die?
Starting point is 01:07:21 Yeah, that's not true. I still checked when I was a whole bird. You're not going to my pool party because I'm putting the dye in there. A friend of mine sent me a video that showed the dye. And I'm like, look, it's real. They caught this woman. I was like, that's so staged.
Starting point is 01:07:34 That's not true. That's not real at all. I've tested it. It doesn't work. No. Yeah. Barbara, veteran, Pete Pesser. And no, sorry.
Starting point is 01:07:42 Poor Peter. I'm a Pete Pesser. How do we end I'm a Pee Pisser. How do we end up back here, Blizz? No! Blizz rhymes with piss. I'm just saying. But you were talking about... Piss Bear.
Starting point is 01:07:55 About how you know you'd been outside and you were like going to this event and you know you said you were apologizing saying you're gross. I feel I don't know if any of you guys I'm one of my I'm one of my very guilty reality TV pleasures is 90 day fiance and So it's like these people who are meeting other people from overseas and like the one where they can't see each other But the love is blind. Oh, I like that. There's like people from other countries coming to the United States Or they go to other anyway, it's like I'm always struck by when like these people get on a plane, have to fly like 10, 12 hours around the world, you know, land somewhere and then they're
Starting point is 01:08:32 immediately up on someone hugging and kissing and like, I bet they smell terrible. Like there's nothing worse in the world than spending, you know, 10, 12 hours on a plane and then getting off. Every now and then they'll show someone who's like, I'm gonna run to the bathroom and like, try to wash up and get some soap and clean up a little bit that way. I'm not gross, but usually it's just like running off the plane
Starting point is 01:08:52 and like smothering someone and kissing them. And every time I'm like, I bet that's really gross. I don't know, that's gotta be incredibly gross. I thought of that before, but yeah, you're right. Yeah, that's, but like, love, anything can happen with love. Yeah. Don't awe, no. Including horrendous body odor, it's possible.
Starting point is 01:09:11 But some people are into that. Napoleon was really into body odor. How do you know that? He was into his wife, Josephine. He was like, I can't wait to see you. I can't wait to smell you. He told her to not shout. Is that true?
Starting point is 01:09:24 Is that? Hand of that hand to God? Hey, I believe it because I don't know if it's a sign of true love. And I'm going to be a little gross here. I love the smell of Trevor's morning breath. And I, and like, it's like, Faremont is just stuff like that. And I'm like, I've never liked anybody's morning breath before, but it's like everything about Trevor, he smells amazing.
Starting point is 01:09:48 And I'm just like, maybe it's because like biologically, we're like soulmates. And I don't know if you guys should same with your partners, but. No, no, no, absolutely not. Brush your fucking teeth. And then, then we'll get down to business. If you want to morning, if we have some morning action,
Starting point is 01:10:02 but you can brush your teeth. I get what you're saying, Barbara, I really do. I have to agree with you on this one, yeah? Really? I really do. When you're, I mean, I guess we're just more in love with our partners than maybe. Maybe, maybe.

Starting point is 01:10:28 I love the way you love. I could never. Congratulations. But I feel like there was so much made up. It's so much slander about Napoleon after he died. Yeah. He wasn't really sure. He wasn't sure.
Starting point is 01:10:41 British thing. Right. It was like this thing that they, this story that concocted after the fact to try to like demean him or make him seem like less of a person, which is a, you're thinking to make up about someone. But it, so like, yeah, that's why I was like, are you sure about the body order thing?
Starting point is 01:10:57 Like are you, oh, I see, no, I think this comes from his letter. Okay, got it. So I think this is legit. But yeah, there was a lot of Napoleon's like, because he like conquered mainland Europe. Yeah. I mean, it was like, yeah yeah, there was a lot of Napoleon's like because he like conquered mainland Europe Yeah, I mean it was like yeah, so he made a lot of enemies. How do you know so much about Napoleon? I'm sitting here like I like history to it like I and you were talking about the Ford's theater
Starting point is 01:11:15 Have you ever done the tower tour at UT? No, I never have oh Do it because they'll give you the official version, but if you want to learn about a certain do it because they'll give you the official version but if you want to learn about a certain they know all about that and they have like points interest they're like yeah here's where the cop shot him and killed him you know it's all you can get the Charles Whitman tour if you like interesting I could like science I mean I believe in it like I'm happy it's there I would very I would like to you know hope it's yeah no Yeah, I'm vaccinated if that's what I know I look like I might not be like I might be on the fence like we went to the comedy seller we were in New York and Dave a tell was headlight and his host goes he looked at my hair was longer because the pandemic and I had the beard I looked like yeah, he just looked at me and he's like, you look like you storm the Capitol on James.
Starting point is 01:12:05 He's six. And everybody, everybody laughs. You look like you. And then he goes, where are you from? Oh, no. Like, oh fuck. And I just, I paused and I was like, Texas. And it just brought the house down.
Starting point is 01:12:20 And then a Talmud and for the rest of the show. I used to love his show on Comedy Central Insomniac. Oh, the best. And I ran into him in Austin when they were filming that, they filmed an episode in Austin. But I ran into him when they weren't filming. I ran into him at Fado down on Fourth Street. Yeah, I was just there with some friends and I was like,
Starting point is 01:12:38 holy shit, David Tel just walked in. It was like one of those moments was like, it was like 99, maybe 2000. And I was like, hey, I'm just, you know, it's like, just wanna say hello. Big fan, I think you're hilarious. I think you're, you're, you're comedy's great. He was like such a super nice guy.
Starting point is 01:12:53 Cause he's, but which I was, I was kind of scared to approach him because he's kind of like very sharp. He's like a tough New Yorkie. Like, and I think he's like the funniest comic working. But yeah, he was super nice. He was so nice. It was such an awesome experience to have.
Starting point is 01:13:09 Just met him randomly at a bar in downtown Austin. That was a great, early 2000s comedy central like that and tough crowd with Colin Quinn. You know, oh, so great. Just playing Final Fantasy 11 and having that on the other stage. He's so good. For, for, for you kids who don't know. Uh, in Somniac was a, I was like a show where David would tell we just go to like different cities
Starting point is 01:13:32 and like go to bars and, uh, I guess like, it was whenever he was touring and maybe like, he had a show in a city, then he would also show like, what the nightlife in that city was like. Oh, yeah, he'd go visit like the people with night jobs and like, yeah, just everything like that, because it would start with him doing stand-up
Starting point is 01:13:48 and then he would like wrap up. What happens after that? Yeah, it was really cool. I don't think I could ever do stand-up, I'll be honest. I don't know if I could either. I was thinking about this the other day because they just had comedy night last night, which apparently everyone crushed it.
Starting point is 01:14:00 Yeah. I heard it was great. They were so y'all are so funny. Like, it's no fair. What? I just like, I guess back in the, like, I did improv for a little bit. And before that, I was like, I would never do improv ever in my life. And then I did it and it was okay.
Starting point is 01:14:14 But stand up seems so daunting because it's like, it's just you. You have no one to play off of. Yeah, it's miserable. It is miserable. Because when you fail, it's so obvious. It's like when you bomb. Are you, are you okay?
Starting point is 01:14:28 What? Yeah, I mean, for a standup, I'm very well adjusted. He told you he believes in science. Yeah, he said. I hated how that went. Whereas you believe in science, I'm vaccinated. It's not my, that, I mean, okay, I'll take it. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:14:44 I'm not, no, I don't like due science science like in my spare time. What does that mean? It's not like I don't he's not at home with his beaker.

Starting point is 01:17:44 As one former cast member of ours would call it the Fingermy podcast. I don't know if you guys remember? Careful, I'm getting woozy. Even like some kind of porn would bother me. Oh my. Like the first time. Where are we going? Like, I remember like being a freshman at U.T.
Starting point is 01:18:06 Should I tell, I don't know. It's up to some weird story. That's up to you. Like the first time, the first time, I was weird at Jester and somebody had a porn, like on VHS. Because it was like 1994, like you couldn't download a whole porn from the, I mean, it would take like a week.
Starting point is 01:18:24 How are you saying it like, a porn from the and I mean it would take like a week Are you saying it like? One I will take that for one porn and like porn was different back It just was different and it was like two ladies and they were like you know, they were in love Exactly And they did they were doing things to each other and at one point I remember watching I'm thinking I'm gonna pass out So but I don't want to get up so I just looked at like the VCR the whole like I looked at a different point is it because all the blood was rushing someone else No, it was just like I don't know it was weird. It was just like to like something about it just bothered me like I was like this is like Yeah, you realize you weren't necessary
Starting point is 01:19:05 Let me introduce you to Gay porn. It's really funny. It's really funny that you have to focus on the VCR. You find something else like inane to look at. Yeah, I was like, boy, there's a lot going on there that I don't have. It was just like new. It was like discovering something new. But then like I had, but like,
Starting point is 01:19:26 you remember you would have like a porn collection? If you would have a- Eric, be out of here, please. Eric help. I have like, you know, like eight or 10, you know, tapes or whatever. And I remember one time I fell asleep watching porn. But then I woke up and I didn't like,
Starting point is 01:19:42 you know, I don't know where you are. But I was also like, I was really into wrestling at the time, so I woke up and I didn't like, you know, I don't know where you are. But I was also like, I was really into wrestling at the time. So I woke up and I thought it was wrestling, which I wasn't wrong. But it was, I was like, what are those two dudes, oh, that's cool. One time when I worked at the call center, we had a dream cast in our break room. So like, if you, you know we're taking a break off the phones, you could go in and like drink a coke and play
Starting point is 01:20:07 a Dreamcast or whatever and get a couple of games. And like I had gone on break from the call center, I walked up to the break room and I was going to play the Dreamcast and I was like, I don't know, like NFL 2K or something was in it. I was like, I want to play Dead or Alive. So I was like, I was like, where is the games? And I looked over on the table in the break room
Starting point is 01:20:23 and there was like a CD case. And I was like, oh, that must be where all the games are. So I walked on the table in the break room, and there was like a CD case. And I was like, oh, that must be where all the games are. So I walked over to it, unzipped it, and opened it up. And it was just filled with burned porn DVDs. Nice. And like they were all individually labeled. I was like, someone just left their porn out. Like I felt second hand embarrassment
Starting point is 01:20:40 for whoever that was. And I didn't want anyone thinking it was mine. So I just very quickly like zipped it back up and put it in the stash. And I was like, I'm just looking for dinner alive. I just want to play a video game. That happened like when I worked at Blockbuster, it didn't happen all the time, but somebody would in variably there would be porn returned in the VHS. So it's like I'm like trying to restock patch atoms and it was like oral
Starting point is 01:21:05 com shots volume two. I will never forget that title. And I don't know if people ever came back like you have my property. Excuse me. It's the way you all are looking at me and I know you're looking at me. You see help in my eyes. I'm like, I think I see help in everyone. I see help in everyone. Oh, and Blockbuster is gone. I like that's such a weird thing to think. Like that was a whole business. That was huge. You would go somewhere and rent a movie. And it was an experience though,
Starting point is 01:21:37 because you would like the whole thing was about hunt, you know? So what do we, let's just go. And we'll find out. I remember it was like a thing that like my family, I know would do like Friday, after we were down school, we would go to Blockbuster and like rent a few movies or games for the weekend.
Starting point is 01:21:50 And like, yeah, I mean, it was like part of the late 90s, really, 2000s experience. Yeah, my dad fucked that up for us. So I want to, I want to be a gamer so bad, right? And you could rent games. Yeah. Blockbuster's. But one time my dad rented a game and never returned it. So I want to be a gamer so bad, right? And you could rent games, lockbusters. But one time my dad rented a game and never returned it.
Starting point is 01:22:07 And this was before, I guess I knew what lockbusters was. So when I got there, I was like, can play Kirby Irrider, and my mom was like, no, because your dad messed up the whole system, so you can't do it anymore. So my childhood is pretty sad. So that's like whatever. He ruined it for a free copy of Chrono Trigger. And that was my villain origin story, so thank you. Yeah, it's funny how different the world is now.
Starting point is 01:22:33 Like I did a movie review for Blood Black Box Down Panel and I reviewed, that I talked about the 2005 Jodie Foster film called Flight Plan, which is a terrible movie. But it's like, you don't have to go anywhere. It's like I just paid to rent it on my computer It's $3.99 I'll never get back and I regret spending on but it's like you have multiple platforms to choose from I rented it on YouTube For some reason I guess I'd never rented a movie on YouTube. Yeah, I was like oh you rent movies on YouTube
Starting point is 01:22:59 Yeah, I did that and it wasn't even in high-deaf It was like a 480p movie. I paid 399 for right. Yeah, it did that and it wasn't even in high death. It was like a 480p movie. I paid 394. I didn't have that back then. Right. It's like, yeah, it's still, yeah. There it was. We didn't even have blockbuster, but we had something better. We had Hastings, Books, Music, and video.
