And I'm Barbara.

Anybody go anywhere, do anything fun? What's the last week? What's your final place that you visited that you went out to? I went to a different corner of my bedroom that I hadn't been to in a while. It was very fascinating. Found

an extra sock I had been looking for there. It was very exciting. I find myself spending more time cleaning my backyard, raking and mowing the grass. Just doing stuff normally that I would be like, I'll do it later, I'll do it later. It's like, oh, that's an excuse to go outside and to do something. And like, I'm out there and it's like, why am I doing this? I'm so, that's how desperate I am.

I would be like, like 15 years out for you. Because I feel like we all are gonna hit an age in our lives where we spend a lot of time just sweeping and raking. Like, I think that people just, you get to an age and you just do. Yeah, they do call it the raking years, I think. That's usually hit twilight. And then you play shuffleboard when you get into retirement because you've had a lot of practice saying with this motion. Yeah, that makes sense. Which by the way, shuffleboard is very fun. That makes me want to

ask you a question, Barbara. Exactly how do you sweep? Like this. I'm going to sit in sweep with one hand, just jerking. Please sweep the air. Yeah, be there. But when I was out there this past weekend, I was like picking up a bunch of leaves and I was taking them to another part of the art to put them in a bag.

And then I walked back to where the pile of the leaves were. And in like the five seconds I was gone, there was a bird fight happening where I was standing where all the leaves were. And in like the five seconds I was gone, there was a bird fight happening where I was standing where all the leaves were. It was like, yeah, there were like five sparrows and a blue jay all fighting each other. And I went back to the pilot leaves and they all like exploded.

I was like flew away and I looked around, I was like, what happened? Did I look down at the pilot leaves? And there was still like one sparrow there that looked like it was hurt. Oh, no. You know, I was like, did, do all those other birds just jumping this bird?

And I bent down and looked at it. And while I was looking at it, like what do I do with this thing? It just like took off and flew away. Like, okay. Okay, so that's okay. Yeah, that was, that was my excitement. That's okay.

So that's the podcast everyone. That's the one thing that's happened in a form. Yes. What do you think they were fighting over? Okay, so that's a podcast everyone. That's the one thing that's happened in a form. What do you think they were fighting over? Worms. Who's going to be the king of the leaves? I don't know if they were all fighting each other, or if the Sparrows were ganging up and fighting the Blue Jay,

or who started it, or... I didn't know if I should feel sorry for the Sparrer, did it instigate the fight is this it it's fault but maybe Maybe you know this once this was an asshole. I mean is it fault though in the animal kingdom? It's just animals being animals Is there ever like a dickhead animal that deserved it? I think so I think For sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah, like the biggest animal instigator that you could think of. I don't know. Do you look at me? Like

this guy's going to start some fucking problems. I think you know, like for example, our dog, Benson will if we go to a dog park and other dogs start fighting, he will run over to intervene, except he starts barking at the dog that was being picked on.

Like he gains up on the victim. He's victim blaming. Yeah, he runs over and he starts and we're like, what are you doing? It's not like he runs over and he's like, that's off. You know, he's in the mix and he's a girl. I did a bit of a wildlife incident yesterday when a centipede or something just fell out of a hole in my ceiling and I made like an audible thud on the carpet. Is it really said that the first thing I think of is when you hit a rock and animal

crossing in a centipede? Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. It's the first place my head went. So I tried to trap it because I didn't want to squash it or mush it into the carpet, so I just got a glass and I put it under it And then I tried to like force a little bit of cardboard under the glass But I guess it sort of was freaking out was running really fast around the glass and a load of its legs came off

And they were all kicking because they just come off the the body But there was like 20 legs that were just like hop in all over the glass. And I just had to walk away. I was like, this is too much. It's too much wildlife. You have a cup of legs. Yeah. A cup of legs and a limping scent.

I think the cat deals with it after I had to get it. And it was dark. So I like I got what was left of I mean, he's still had a ton of legs. Let's be fair. He was fine. But then I went outside and like, sort of flung him outside, but the wind took all the legs and it was all my bad stuff. So were they still moving in your beard? I don't know. I can't think about it. I'm sorry. I don't know why that fucking gets me just disembodied legs. Yeah, it's fun. It's funny how unexpected things fly in it.

You make you react. This morning, I was walking my dogs and who knows? Like a moth or something flew into my head and I slapped my own face. It's like I had a smudge all over the lens of my glasses from like hitting my own face because some tiny bug flew into me. And it's like that's the instant reaction

is to hurt yourself. What are you guys doing? And there's a book in your house. Do you kill it or do you try to bring it outside? What is like the general consensus in your household? I just chuck them out. It is a fly out trying. Swat or something.

If it's like really not bothering or in a place of inconvenience, sometimes I just leave the bug. I don't really kind of bug it. If it's a spider and it's just sort of like in a place of inconvenience. Sometimes I just leave the bug. And I go like, kind of bug it. If it's a spider and it's just sort of like in a corner or something, I might just leave it. And not even doing good luck. Yeah, it's, it's due and work out there. James and I actually, true story,

this happened, but days ago, he was sitting in front of his computer just behind me here. And a spider propelled from the ceiling, like directly in front of him, so much so that he even like, live streaming, it would have come down right in front of the camera. That would have been awesome. I know! I was like, dang it! Like, we're parked in front of these things all day. You know, a rooster-heathed streaming all day and we couldn't, it didn't coincide. That spider was taking its chance. It saw its opportunity to go out on the web. So, we're just going to be doing a little bit of research streaming all day and we didn't coincide. That spider was taking its chance.

It's all opportunity to go out on the web. I want to remind everyone, if people want to join us in chat, we're watching chat that can create a free account at roachcheath.com. I got a window right over here to the right. We see me looking over here because I'm reading a chat to see chat. I got chat on my window right over here to the right. So we see me looking over here. It's because I'm reading Chat to see what's going on Dennis and chat says a moth flu in his mouth once. Thank you for sharing that tennis Trevor and I have almost a complete opposite opinion on bugs when they're in our house

For me a same with you at least like if I see a spider up in the corner I'm like, I know whatever like it's not bothering but if it's like crawling across the floor, I might smash it and whatever, like it's not bothering, but if it's like crawling across the floor, I might smash it. But I just want to do it sing. But I'm under the impression, we're not the impression. My mentality is this motherfucking insect invaded my face. I'm gonna kill it,

cause it's on my property, it's inside. But it doesn't know how to read it. It doesn't understand that. I don't care, It's in my space. I'm going to kill it. And Trevor's like, what are you just taking outside? It's just easier to just smash it. I also don't want to like handle bugs. It's easier for me to like approach it with a shoe, smash, and then throw it out versus like try to get like a piece of paper under it or something. How do you deal with the goo? I swipe it up. So you don't want to deal with an insect, but you want to deal with insect guts? I don't want to deal with a live insect because I'm afraid it's going to like quickly skitter away onto me or something like in my face or like get stuck in my hair.

Yeah, there's about a two second window where it's going to end up coming from the floor inside my mouth. It's going gonna be there, you know. Trevor does this thing where he tries to make me feel bad about it where he's just like, what if that little guy was just looking for his family and he just got lost and made the wrong turn and entered our house and he was just trying to get back home and you killed them and I was like, oh my god Sneeze so I decided to Google right here. I'm looking it up. I looked up. What is the ratio of insects to humans? The estimated ratio of insects to humans is 200 million to one

Well, that sounds about right because you think about how many little baby spiders are in one of those spider eggs. Oh. You know? We have all red Charlottes web. Yeah. We know it happens. There's the balloon. And then they all use their web as little balloons to like, you know, I have a red Charlottes web, but now I want to.

What? She got what was coming to her. She got her. Oh. Oh, Barb, I wonder if you read Charlottes web if you have a completely different mentality What? She got what was coming to her. She got her. I wonder if you read Charlottes Web. If you have a completely different mentality when it comes to your relationship to insects. I probably would. I've seen what's that? Is it James in the giant peach where there's like a bunch of bugs that they're interacting with? I've seen that and that just made me hate bugs even more because that movie creeped me out. So speaking of bugs, did you bring murder hornets back with you from from Japan, Gavin?

Look, I'm not having a very good year. All right. At the end of last year, I made a video about the murder hornet. And I also said that 2020 should be the year where we do nothing and don't go anywhere. And now I'm worried about the other things that I've said at the end of last year that are going to come true. It's terrifying. You're still here, Trophit. Yeah, those murder hornets are up in Washington state and what they're like two inches long. How do they make it? They fly here? Or they just roll over in some cargo or something? Yeah, they have a layover in a last column over here. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no the heads off of bees and I think they kill like 60 people a year.

Have a venomous stinger or something like that. Like, I heard it feels like you're getting stabbed with like a hot thumbtack. Apparently, it's really painful, but I heard it's also venomous. I'm not sure if there's truth to that, but I do know that they've killed people. So yeah, they'll go into a bee hive and just start shredding b heads and just rip in all the heads off and they can kill like a thousand b's each or something something crazy and then they get tired It's like that's enough murder for today Yeah, I saw one on the on the floor in Japan not knowing what it was but

Yeah, I saw one on the on the floor in Japan not knowing what it was, but Yeah, I having seen one in real life. I would not I would run from one of those even though they're much smaller than me I would peg it away from that video a bit like a foot away. Yeah, I was trying to pay it To go away I was just using a $20 bill for scale and it was walking all over it No, I was just using a $20 bill for scale and he was walking all over it. Jeez, dude. Oh, man. Do you think they were called the murder, like murder, hornet originally? Like, maybe they kill because... Because of the stigma?

Because of the stigma, yeah. They were like, okay, you're gonna call me a murder, hornet, and maybe I'll murder. Yeah, it's the same with a dung bill. It was called a dung bill. And it was like, I guess I'll find balls of shit to roll around. Yeah, it used to be the manslaughter hornet within the charge has got a trump Yeah, making a murder hornet It was driven to this life who planted the keys in the beehive all right who did it?

So we have a lot over that show by the way, but I never watched season two Okay So we have a lot over that show by the way. I never watched season two Okay, it'll make you even more anyway Yeah, it's good. It's good. Does the second season follow the same people it does yeah, but it's it's more about There's this woman Kathleen Zellner, I believe her name is she's a lawyer who specializes in wrongful convictions and She's a lawyer who specializes in wrongful convictions and they go through so many things about like how this was done There would be this type of evidence if if this is what they're claiming that would have happened It's very fascinating especially if you're like interested in Murder cases or anything like that. It's it's fascinating

But it it does make you more angry especially because the one of the cousins, they looked at his computer and he had search history and images saved on his computer of dead women and corpses and all these really terrible, disgusting things that, oh, if he's clearly interested in this thing and then there's a dead woman all of a sudden on your property, it just seems like there should have been more investigation done into this guy. And that guy's name? Murder Hornet.

Fuck you. No, it's a, I just, I feel like that's what that's one that I just missed. I really like the first season, and the second one came out. I don't know what would happen. I just didn't watch it for some reason. I maybe I got plenty of time now. Maybe I'll go back and watch it. This episode of RST Podcasts brought to you by Honey.

Yeah, of course. That's true. It's too hot now. Raking is a morning activity. This time of day, forget about it. Pass out. Would you get into night raking? That seems creepy.

I can't get into night r't. That's like Raker. Yeah, it's like. It's like your moniker. It's something born movie. And you can say, Raking is a morning activity. It would be your home time. It seems like to be creepy. Yeah, if you saw your neighbor doing that,

it'd be like, why are they out there at night doing that? No, well, that way I would think, oh, they're in quarantine. They're going to do all things all times a day because we're all stuck at home doing that. No, well, that way would think, oh, they're in quarantine. They're going to do all things all times a day because we're all stuck at home doing whatever. I don't know. I feel like I wouldn't want to do anything at night that looks like I could be burying someone. Like a similar motion. The breaking is pulling and then burying is, see, I know that. I mean, like a specialty rake that has little headlights on it. I do like you being the night raker though. And I just have just the lamp shade on the handle ends.

So I always like. But it's like one of those creaky ones that just like spins like this. I almost made myself in the face doing it. I feel like this is one of those infomercial products you see. It's like, have you ever tried raking at night? It's a mess. And then like someone did raking a huge mess, introducing the night rake.

And it's just got like headlights on it. Are you being accused of murder? Yeah, it's a guy. Sorry, go ahead. I was just like the guy messing it all up would be just a guy like raking his China cabinet by accident. It's like you need one with the lamp messing it all up would be just a guy like raking his china cabinet by accident. It's like you need one with the lamp on it.

I feel like you would the night raker would like solve, you'd be a renegade, a rogue that vigilante who solves cases, maybe he solves the making a murder case, but he does it because he when he rakes he uncovers clues that like this is a waste may not have seen otherwise like fibas that would too deep in the grass until he raked. There's like a broken layer of leaves. He's an intuition for what could be raked to you know, we found a sparrow with boxing gloves on. We're uncovering this day by day.

Literally uncovering the truth. Oh my God. Night Raker. That's the next RT Direct Show. I think that's the role that I'm writing it down right now as we've basically had. What do you think if we had a rake in the store, anyone would buy it? After this conversation, maybe.

If it's Night Raker branded? Yeah, I would say raking is a more. What did you say? Raking is a morning activity. Listen, I had a context. It sounds a little weird. Yeah. I just like the way that you said it with like you said it.

It's such confidence and finality. Like, yeah, raking is a morning activity. Everyone knows it. Of course. We don't live out in California where there's decent weather. It's like, once the sun passes, a certain point in the sky here, you're like, oh, you do not go outside, forget about it. It's where I'm already there. No, I mean, not going outside anyway. This makes me so depressed, um, is that it's starting to get hot and Austin, which usually makes me really excited because it means

swimmies and pool time, which is the best part about living in Austin when it gets hot. It's because, oh, there's always a pool around to go and hang out. And now knowing that we might not get to swim at all this year because I doubt this will be done by the time summer's over. Just dig a hole.

Dig a hole and get a water hose. Or FaceTime in the bath. Why do you have to have the FaceTime element? Right. Because we want to swim together at least. It's social activity. All right. Yeah.

You're doing so much swimming, it's about being outside. Like, Indoor pulls fuck that. It's about being outside. It's the best part about it. I know. I thought that thought where I was like, maybe I won't go to the beach this summer. And like, I'm a summer person. Like, look at this shirt. Oh, it's a woman that loves the evidence. Right. That's right that it's like it like the modern Carol Basque and look I like exactly exactly you know hello little kitties or whatever she says I don't know cool cats yeah man it would be depressing I know it's like I don't want to be like who who for me because like my lot in life could be a whole lot worse. There are people dealing with a whole lot worse. But it will be a, you know, a gloomy, bummer summer if everyone can't enjoy it.

And like, I understand the mentality of like, there's people in very unfortunate situations, people losing their job, not able to make rent and stuff like that and people struggling to get by. It's horrible. But I don't think that should take away from you still feeling bummed out about missing moments in your life. Like there's kids who like completely missed out on graduation and prom and like having

their first kid and that experience being different and not what it should be. And I think it's totally okay to be bummed out about that because it's like you're living your life and you're a lot to be sad. Yes, there's always gonna be people in worse scenarios and worse situations, but I don't think that should take away from you feeling like, this kinda sucks, and I'm sad. Did you think kids missed out on having their first kid?

Oh no, I was saying like kids are missing out on their problem and stuff like that, but then there's also people who like, there's a friend of mine who had twins. She lives in the UK and her families in Canada and they can't come visit, obviously. No one could come visit. They're planning on getting like all this extra help when the babies arrived and they can't have any of that. And you know, like they're both still working with newborn twins and everything.

It's just like insane to think about. The baby can't even swim. Baby's float though, right? Baby's float. Do a baby's float. I'm just trying to float on the left. Someone said Papa Hydrint, Barb. Oh, a little like sprinkler action.

Yeah. Hydrant on your street. I mean, I'm sure I do. It also signed chat coffee breaks said that the Jeff Summer bummer line was a year ahead of its time. Oh, oh. Oh. Do you ever think of what percentage of your life

you'll end up spending alone in your house? We're not alone, but just trapped into us. But you spend a third of your life sleeping, right? So we already know that. I will not counting that. Well, I don't know. You would have been doing that anyway. I would not counting that. Well, you would have been doing that anyway. Yeah, you would have been asleep anyway. So we know it's a 30 year life sleeping

and a 30 year life on the toilet. So you only left a 30 year life for that could possibly be taken up by this. Yeah, I shot for seven hours yesterday. I mean, I wonder too, like, what when this has died down and like things start to go back to normal, whenever that may be, like, I still wonder how much of our lives are going to be done remotely after, like, of things changing. I don't know. I feel like there's gonna be a big shift and stuff. I think you'll have a shake your hand again. I mean if I could not that'd be great. I feel like we should adopt the

Japanese bow right when they greet people. That's like common. Sure. Yeah. I've never been to Japan, so I don't know. That's just what I hear. I feel like we should adopt that, because I feel like it's more respectful. Yeah, let's do a way with hugs as well, as long as we're at it. No hugs. I don't want to get rid of those. Oh, hugs a nice day.

Where if I see a lease? Yeah. Not at all. I don't know. I don't know. I see a lease? Yeah. Not in the bow. I can't bow at all. And I was just imagining like two rammed escalators going past each other, but everyone bowing each other. Totally, it's like. Oh, man. And yeah, like think of the packs trains in Japan.

Like people, shoulder to shoulder falling, sleep on each other. Yeah. How do you, how do you handle the amount of people that have to get from place to place? Yeah, it's true. Cause yeah, that's, that's really crowded for, yeah, I don't know how you fix that or how you modify for that. I just run like 10 times as many trains, like one train that's going non-stop moving. Yeah.

Perhaps a perpetual motion train that circumfence the earth. Because you just step on and get off. And the like piercing train. And as a result of all of this, the world is somehow it was colder for some reason and iced over. So this piercing train would have to pierce the snow. Yeah, I mean, the thing that's positive is coming out of this. I'm sure you guys have talked about it on another podcast is the environmental impact Well, yeah, you know everything's getting better. This those pandas that couldn't mate for like 12 years or whatever finally made it Because now nobody's watching you were just

I know I can't do it when people are watching, so I understand. How does the tub FaceTime do? I'm a real tub girl, baby. I don't think it's a bad idea at least. I don't think she said it's a bad idea. I think she's just making fun of you. No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to even make fun of you.

Though I guess I was, it was just the way that you presented it. Because it was like, you said like, oh yeah, you know, we'll get in the tub just pretend like we're swimming and we should get on a FaceTime so it feels like we're together, you were just like, get in the tub and FaceTime. Yeah, my mind just slightly ahead of where the conversation had gone. Yeah, I'm like, oh, I miss going swimming with friends, you're just like, just FaceTime me from the tub. Like, just being in a body of water, and let me see your face, that'll be these things.

It's end of your credit card info while you're at it. That's a sign of intellect, right? That your mind moves faster than your mouth. No, I don't think so. I think it means that you have trouble staying grounded to conversations, Just wondering off. This episode of RESTUEP Podcast is brought to you by Stabps.com.

I wonder what it's like in LA at least because I saw, I don't know if it's just like it happened to be a clear day, but there was a photo taken of downtown LA and it was super clear. And I'm wondering if like the lack of traffic is having

a great impact on that city. I would imagine it is. I think the air here is cleaner than it's been in decades. And you can see the mountains from just about everywhere you are, which is usually the only the only time you can do that is after it's rained. So it is actually really nice outside right now. And I feel like there's a lot of wildlife that you see. Are you making the most of it? You're like walking outside and taking big deep breaths. On FaceTime?

I'm a big, like, I'm a big, adorzy person anyway. I feel like this shirt says something about a person. I don't know. I think it says your cool cat. Thank you, Barbara. I really like being outside, so I will admit, I do probably abuse the like go for a while. Oh, I know, I walk my dog. So I'm out with a purpose. I'm not just like strolling the neighborhoods, you know, exhaling for the purpose of the public. But I am like just trying to be outside because I miss it a lot and I do wear a mask or a bandana a lot. I kind of like the the fashion aspect of wearing a bandana more than a mask. I don't know how you guys feel. That's what that's the official.

That's what it's like. Crist Crystal Maris is abusing it. I think Crystal Maris is like using that bandana too much. Like even when he's been signing we're on video conference meetings, he's still wearing it. Did he wear it around his neck? Yeah. He's doing it like red dead style,

so you can just quickly put it up whenever you need to. Right. Yeah. Trevor's been wearing a bandana, but folded around his head because his hair's getting so long that if he's working on something or looking down, it'll go in his eyes. Because I think if he pulls his long his piece down, it's below his nose.

Oh, wow. Is he going to try to cut it or have you cut it or something? So he's talking about, he's like, I've never seen my hair pass a certain length. So why don't I try growing it out and see if there's a new style, a try or something. So he's he's talking about he's like I've never seen my hair pass a certain length so like why don't I try growing it out and see if there's like a new style I could try or whatever. I might try styling his hair maybe film it. It sounds like a video. I know pretty much everything we come up with it's like we should save that for a video because quarantine and you're only so because quarantine and you're only so capable of doing things at home. But if not, I've offered to cut his hair for him.

I cut Chris's hair and I think I did a pretty okay job. So, oh yeah, that's true. I don't want to fuck it up too bad. So, we'll see what happens. For now, it's just growing out. You wonder how long my longest hair is nearly as long. eyebrow. Oh, yeah.

You're an eyebrow. At least, what about you? I know you have, you're like me, and you have some blonde highlights and stuff like that. Are you just, you're just letting it grow? Or you think you're going to try redying? I was. It isn't how long this goes. I might, I might just try to color it myself, but I mean, for now I'm like, I'll just leave it.

And yeah, you know, it's not too bad. I- It looks good. Yeah, I mean, your hair looks great too. I get the Bollyosh stuff, so it's like meant to be able to grow out and look okay, but I think you could see like my hair is I think down to here where it's grown out so far, which I don't know if like that's really fast or if I just wasn't paying attention to it. Attention to your way before. I don't know if you want to turn into werewolves.

So why are you so... follicles moving so fast now? I know, I'm like, I'm able to grow faster. What changed? What changed? Today we had a Zoom meeting earlier and Maryl changed her background. She had made a virtual background. That was this image, me sitting in front of the wall, and she said it was her virtual background.

And that gave me an idea, so I had her send it to me. And I used that as my virtual background background and I just walked away from the meeting So we didn't really notice that Gus wasn't moving I just walked away into my kitchen like I don't even need to be here anymore. We used to listening to the meeting at least Yeah, I was talking about something and I was going on for a couple minutes. And then I like stopped myself mid sentence to be like, Gus, are you just a virtual background picture of yourself? And apparently Cameron and Noel from our group had been messaging each other 15 minutes prior to say that Gus was frozen. It had gone on for a long time. frozen. It had gone on for a long time. That's a little little pro tip for everyone out there. If you got a meeting you want to get out of just virtual background yourself, you can do movies too.

You can just record like a little movie of you just like they're moving like a five-second loop doing something. You just play that all the way over. Well, you do it. Of you nodding because then people could just get you to agree to stuff without you actually agree. I don't feel like one of these. We're kind of like looking at the screen. Oh, yeah. Like one of those movie eyes around a little bit. So it looks like you're listening. Kind of like when I hacked my way onto the always open screen.

I still can't get over the fact that you did that. At least have you ever seen that clip? I don't think so. That's brilliant though. Do you remember how on Always Open, we used to have the TV screens in the back that played like the street image from Congress? Gavin, the first time he was on the show,

I'm but knowns to me the night before, when down to Congress, matched up the camera angle of what we had for the video playing in the back and filmed himself like walking through and like coming up close to the camera and then they Sneakily did that on the show and I was like what's going? I have no idea what's going on because I didn't think Gavin would put in that effort to do that Yeah, so I thought they just took a green screen and like did something with a video of Gavin that already existed and he didn't know about it either So I thought everyone was being pranked

and not just me. Yeah, it was really, it was like a prank that had two waves of reactions. One was like, whoa, what's crazy? What's going on? And then after you found out that I had done it, you were like, what? Yeah, that would not mind even more.

Actually, this is pretty sweet because I feel like that takes a lot of work and I don't think Gavin would do it for just anyone. So I think that's actually... You are absolutely right, Elise. But I do love pranks that are like tons of time for like just like a one second payoff. Well like five seconds. They're extra funny to me. But I had the same thought process at least where I was just like, oh like Gavin was like me if he went to that much trouble to pull a prank on me. This is sweet in a way.

And it also like extra unbelievable because of that I think. On the subject of the Zoom stuff, John Smith, our John Smith did this thing during one of our Zoom meetings. We're prior to the meeting, he had filmed himself with like a wire pretending to choke out someone. So he played it in the background. So it looked like he was coming and choking himself. So then he had a real time with it. It was so good. I wish we had it. So we could, because we've talked about it in podcasts, but we can't like roll it in to be like, here's what it is. It was brilliant.

It was so good. That's amazing. He's so funny. He cracks me up so hard on last laugh. Yeah, he's a little sweet. Oh yeah. Yeah. He did.

Speaking of last laugh, episode three just came out today. It did. I just finished watching it right before the broadcast. It was so much fun. It was so dull. I don't know if it's six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. Six. It was a lot of episodes all that. I don't know if it's six.

Six. Okay. Six. Yeah. The good thing at least is here. You have all the answers. It's hard to vote because I feel like we can't talk about it. You can talk about it.

You can't even open way without spoiling anything. You can talk about the first three, right? Three here, right now. Yeah. Can we? Are we spoiling it for someone that may be watching this now but hasn't seen last laugh? I don't want them to turn away from the R2 podcast. You're just looking over us.

You can probably talk about certain things. Maybe not like who was eliminated, but maybe moments or something like that? Yeah, Michael was a menace in this episode. I don't know if that's like too broad though. Um, Michael did give details on that. He busted out his like big gun which was his baby costume. I like, I like I used to say that as if it's like a common thing that Michael does. I said, I open nose. I would Michael's gonna take a two-leven. He puts on the baby. I don't know. Does he has any were you guys familiar with Michael doing baby stick because I wasn't Having are you? I've seen him do baby stick and like young boy stick and

Yeah, it's it's in yeah, it's within the realms of his character official. Okay, no spoilers. I'm reading chat. We're not gonna give spoilers or anything. Don't worry. But yeah, this episode I felt like episode one was really strong and then two it was it was a little bit of like Everyone getting situated, but then three it just is there's there's a Fiona has a big moment. Oh yeah she does. My goodness. Okay James's reaction to that was incredible. Oh man yeah and Gus Gus is standing right next to her. Yeah I'm glad I was on the side of the room with her and out on the side of the room she was addressing. That's also a great moment on this episode that I won't spoil, but there was some classic guys right there. It was interesting, you know, we talk more about it. I don't know if we're going to do

like another watch through later when the series is rapid or something, but it was interesting just the thought process behind how to approach the game as time went on and as people gained a different level of strikes. Like you're definitely doing different things when you have zero strikes versus one strike versus two strikes and trying to be strategic about how you approach engaging with other people and how you try to disengage at certain times as well.

And it was really, it really took a mental toll. It was fascinating to watch. I came by a couple times throughout the day to just like watch what was going on because they had like monitors and stuff that you could watch and you know, they tried to keep people away from the air because there was so many crew members and moving parts and stuff like that. But I could have stayed there all day because it was just fascinating to watch you guys. Also, I would never want to be in there. I was just going to ask the part if you would do if there was a season two, would you do season two? I would, but I almost guarantee I would be out within the first 30 minutes, but I would do it. There's some interesting comments that I read on the site regarding those episodes

where you know people will say like why is this person still trying this bit nobody's laughing it's obviously not funny it's like well that was kind of the deal like nobody was laughing you so you don't know in the moment whether or not you're doing something funny or not so it's like yeah sometimes you just got to lean into it like you've got to believe in the bit and it's like if it doesn't land at first maybe try it again or just try to run it it. You had to believe in the bit. And it's like, if it doesn't land at first, maybe try it again or just try to run it into the ground doing things over and over. And that's part of it.

Now, like I said, Barbara, please stop spoiling things. I'm not spoiling things. I'm saying Fiona did something, Gus did something. I'm not, don't worry, I'm not spoiling details. You know what I'm watching. She literally didn't spoil a thing? Oh no, Fiona spoke on this episode. I'm sorry.

Yeah, I feel like I wouldn't last five minutes in there. Gavin, I feel like if you and I were in there, we'd probably get each other in like a second. Yeah, I'm just not good at holding anything in. You have a chick that you would do. Like, would you be like, I have this character that I'm going to do. His name is Navin. I don't know. Navin would come in that there be leaves all over the floor and I'd just start raking. There was a season two and Gus came in and like, you know, Fedora and a grizzled overcoat and he had a rake.

I would probably be done. I'd be, yeah, I'd be, I'll wish us the night raker. There's a couple of people at this company who I feel like would get me instantly. At least you're absolutely one of them. Like everything you do makes me crack up immediately. Like all you guys at Funhouse are just, you kill me. I feel like, honestly, anybody. And this is the thing you didn't know

where it was coming from necessarily. Like you had people that you might be worried about, people you weren't worried about, but just being in their worries you down, and like mentally you just get tired and then frustrated. Yeah, it's a really weird show to come on the back of this quarantine, because it's like the same just kind of, you know, you're confined and you're worn out by that at the very least. I think a lot about how like this would be if I was just alone, like living alone, and which I think I would handle it a lot differently and a lot harder. a lot harder. I could see that. Yeah, absolutely.

Oh I know what I was gonna say. So you're looking at my document. I sent at least my document over there. Oh, I know what I was going to say. So you were talking about how this, how strange it is that this show follows up like in quarantine and how you think about the isolation aspect. I made a tweet the other day that I thought was very middle of the road.

I didn't think there was anything controversial about it, but some people got really mad about it. I made a tweet that said something like Animal Crossing will go down in history as being one of the most influential video games of all time. And that really pissed some people off. Some people got really angry. Because I think some people misread it.

They interpreted it as I was saying it was the most important video game of all time because they would reply like, well, what about this game? Or what about that game? Like, calm down. I'm not saying that this is more important than your favorite game.

I'm just saying it will be an important game. And some people were getting really defensive about games that I think are good games, but I would not consider one of the most important games of all time. Like one person was ready to die on the hill that middle gear solid was the most important video game of all time. It's like, I'm a huge middle gear fan.

I'm a huge Kojima fan. I don't know that that's like the most important video game of all time. Right. I think you're absolutely holds so much water to it. And I would agree with you. Like, yeah, I don't think it's the most important video game of all time, but it's definitely one of the most, especially considering when it was released,

how it's being used during this time and everything involved in it. It's a nice game for this time for sure. I like the fact that today I learned the sneezing emotion. So someone just walked up to me and sneezed in my face. And I was like, oh, that's fine here. That's right. I have an assortment of masks in the game. And I tell you about the dream I had that was my first COVID dream. I tweeted about it. I was just a restaurant. And I just saw an old friend and he came over and sat

in the booth with me. I was like, shaking my hand. I was too close to that. He like coughed and I was just sort of an old friend and you came over and sat in the booth with me. I was like shaking my hand, it was too close that he like coughed and I was like, oh no, we can't be here. And I felt like everyone was suddenly watching that we were all hanging out in public. And he like stood up and he's like, don't worry, this dream is taking place before COVID. This is fine. And I was about to leave and I was like, okay. And I just sat down and the dream continued. But it didn't register to me that it was a dream and I didn't wake up okay, and I just sat down and the dream continued, but it didn't register to me that it was a dream and I didn't wake up from it. I just had to be like reassured that it was fine, the setting of the dream was all right. That short dream was taking place before.

Yeah, but this is a superior piece. Was it like when you thought everyone was watching, was like inception when all of the dream individuals like turn and focus on you. The dream was breaking down, but I'm so gullible that immediately they go away with it. But someone had a follow up, someone replied to me to my animal crossing tweet and they said something that I thought they were being flippant, but upon further reflection of thinking about their reply, I think that they were actually right, whether or not they meant it, because I made that tweet and then they replied with something like, yeah, and trolls' world tour is going to be one of the most influential movies of all time.

And I was like, well, that's stupid. It is a movie because you talk to Travis not really. Well, it's because that's a movie that's a movie that missed its theatrical release, but probably ended up making more by going direct to video, direct to consumer, then it would have had, I think it made more than the first movie did, or the previous one. It was also the catalyst for that AMC universal fight,

I feel like. Right. What's that? I don't think I know about that. After Trolls World Tour came out digitally, Universal was like, we have a whole platform of content that we're going to release digitally. This was a big success and we want to provide people with content. And then AMC came out, it swinging and left field, frankly, and said, we will not be screening universal, uh, to survey it movies in our theaters because of, of this initiative from them. Like they were just really but heard about, uh, universal wanting to have like, to go straight to digital.

Well, I mean, that's, I don't, I mean, I think it was a big reaction, but do you blame AMC? They're getting cut out here. I mean, that, that's the whole reason a movie theater exists is so you can go watch movies there. What if, uh, studio started getting rich? Because when the world comes back, surely, yeah, they're going to have less business because of what? Because I think they see the writing on the wall. And I think that's why Troll's World Tour may end up being more influential than I first gave a credit for is it's viewed as a lot more, potentially, could be viewed as a lot more of a viable business option for movies to release directly at a premium that you can watch, you know,

date of release at home instead of having to go out to the theater. So then at that point, you're asking yourself, what's the value of going to the theater versus watching it and streaming it on my TV at home? But do you think the experience that I have a massive screen? Mm-hmm.

Yeah. It's also the experience of going to the theater. It's not even just about the screen for me. It's like, especially the Alamo Drive Touse, like coming in, it's very much like a treat yourself kind of situation you come in and like someone takes your order and you're enjoying the film and having food and stuff like that. So it's like a multiple experience and also just being out, which definitely now I've taken for granted the ability to just go out and be around other human beings. So I don't know, I feel like that'll never truly get replaced. I mean, I could definitely see watching some movies at home versus going out to the theater.

And I think it's viable. I mean, I think there's some movies that I would definitely still continue to go to the theater for, but given the opportunity for a smaller movie, yeah, you know, why not watch it at home? Do you think maybe it would even reopen the market for like mid-range budget movies so that not everything's a tiny no-budget indie film or a big blockbuster action film? Maybe we can get some wider range in the budgets of movies for stuff that releases directly to home. So you get in the end, it might be better for the viewer.

You get a better selection. It's not all big blockbuster summer movies and small indie movies. No one's ever heard of. There might actually be a depth of breadth of films to choose from that you can watch. But you see that parasite is on Hulu. Yes. They put several of Bong Joon Ho's movies on there. I think the parasite, the mother,

the host. The memory of hers on there, memory of hers. It's not. I've been trying to watch it, and you can't stream it anywhere, and I tried to look on Amazon to see if I could buy a disc, and I think I saw a DVD, like a used DVD version for like a hundred bucks,

and I was like, I'm not fucking paying off. 100 bucks for a goddamn DVD. Yeah, you version for like a hundred bucks. And I was like, I'm not fucking Pena. A hundred bucks for a goddamn DVD. Yeah, you can't find it anywhere now. But I mean, they have to release it sometime, right? I think it's one of his best movies. Have you spent a ton too much money on a film in your lifetime just because it was like out of print and you wanted to see it or it wasn't streaming anywhere?

When I was in high school, return to Oz, so this would have been like, you know, 2002 maybe. Return to Oz got released on DVD. So that was the movie from the 80s? Yeah, it was a big movie for me when I was a kid. I got released on DVD and living in Canada at the time. It wasn't for sale, but I could have it imported from the US. And I think I spent like $40 maybe to get that DVD.

You still have it? You, yeah. I have it like in a... Because James and I moved all of our DVDs into like a binder, because we were like, we don't need the cases anymore. I got one of those right here actually, I've been... Look at all these! Yeah! Oh my God. I think the I didn't ever do anything like

that like pay $40 for a DVD. Well, in that like the way you did, but I definitely have purchased criterion editions of like Blu-rays and DVDs and that's like you're paying more just for the sake of paying more or to get you know special features that weren't on the original disc. Like I when Parasite came out on Blu-ray, I was really disappointed at the sake of paying more, or to get special features that weren't on the original disc. Like when Parasite came out on Blu-ray, I was really disappointed at the lack of special features on it. I think the only extra was the trailer and I think an interview with Bong Junho, I think those might have been the only special features on it.

But then the announced are going to release a criterion addition that actually has special features like, well, I already own the movie. When the criterion comes out, I'm going to pay 40 bucks or whatever to buy it again just so I can get those special features. Yeah, I lasted it with the original dawn of the dead, which doesn't stream anywhere and the blurrias have print. So I think I got it on Amazon used for like 60, 60 dollars. Wow. Wow. The movie, your name. I don't have you guys seen that? Yeah.

I, for some reason, I was having trouble finding it anywhere. So I just went to Amazon and bought the collector's edition. It's actually, you can't really see it very well, but it's up on my shelf right over here. Next to the, everything is fine dog and a picture of Blaine. But that was like 60 bucks and it came with like an art book and a soundtrack and like all these extra things and it's 100% worth it because that movie is one of my favorite movies of all time and it's like the most beautiful movie and has

such an amazing soundtrack and the art is beautiful. So I'm so happy to have all of that with it, but I don't know if I would pay that much for a movie in general if it didn't come with that stuff. This is not a movie, this isn't a movie specifically, but I did pay for, I guess, like an Ancillary product, I pre-ordered an Ancillary product. So it's coming out on May 19th,

I'm looking at it over here. I guess they're releasing a graphic novel for Parasite that was made using the storyboards for the film. Oh, so that was an interesting way to like repurpose the storyboards. So I pre-ordered that on. I like how we also found out the other week that you have the rock from Parasite.

It's not like, it's intended to be a recreation. It's one that's similar to that. Yeah. It was just funny that you had that. I was like, you're such a fanboy. I love it. Right over there. I can see it from my desk.

But we can see it. No, you can't. Sorry. You can see this one. Nice. I'm lame. So I buy all the West Anderson scripts, like when they get put into like nice scripted books. I don't know, read them.

You're just playing the battle support? Well, I guess so. And then also because like some of them you can't buy now. Like you can't buy the like aquatic script anymore. What's your favorite was Anderson movie, Elise? The one that is like most personal to me is role-tinin bombs. It's a good one. It's the one that yeah, I kind of like had seen Rushmore

and then when that came out, I saw it and I was like, oh, this is like, there's so much texture to this movie. It's so good. Next year, our first movie club movie. Did you go to the YouTube creator summit the year that Wes Anderson came and talked to us? No, how was that? It was great.

It was really cool actually. And now I'm sorry that you weren't there. What was this like thing that he imparted to everyone? Uh, I mean, I don't think he had a particular message. He was just talking about a shit. We're asking questions, just normal nice, just nice intimate stuff, really. It's so crazy to think that he's from Texas because I look at him and I'm like, he probably like lives in some like Chateau outside of France.

But then like, it's like, I know you went to you because he went to U of T, right? I think so. He's from the Dallas area if I remember right. Look it up. if I remember right. Look at them. I feel like I'm sure. Elise, I wanted to also ask you, you tweeted about this, I think yesterday,

but you said you had a dream. Oh, yeah, yesterday on your birthday, happy, but later birthday, Elise, by the way, how to dream about you and me running around a mall shopping or something like that. Because we played animal crossing. Yeah, I was going to say it's probably going to that. Yeah, we were like running around my island and like looking for stuff and doing things, and then I had a dream that you and I were like, okay, we're in this mall and we don't really know the layout of it. We've got to find all this stuff. And then it ended with us going and taking all

my dreams end with me taking a math exam that I would not prepare for. It's still working up to like every single dream. So it's like somehow you and I got into like, we were going around the mall and then we got to like, you know, the like back hallways of malls and stuff where you find like the security or the management offices and stuff. We like got back there and then there was like a test taking room. They were like, that's the math. Yeah. I was like, I was like, I was, I didn't even know I was taking this. He used to have a lot of like school related dreams,

like taking tests or being late for class or something like that. Yeah, that is just math and it's usually like I didn't do any of the homework for the whole year or I got to take a math test. We can be annoyed if we have a party in future, like some industry thing, and I just sit you down with a math test. Would you be a nurse? No, no. And we'd ultimately prank if we like had an event or get together or like an industry party. And then if someone announces that there's a math test and it doesn't bother everyone, like everyone sits down and pulls out their pencils to do a test and at least it's just

looking around like, why is everyone's okay with this? I think I would be like, the prank and then I would be like he likes me. Yeah. I would absolutely go to that effort. Do you guys not dream about like that sort of stuff anymore or you pass that? I have one school related. Also, do you have any of them been in school for how long? We try to say, I've been in school less time than you. More time. What?

Knowledge. Less to? A children of some sort. Listen, it's been 23 years for me and I still have those dreams. Yeah. Yeah, I have like film set dreams, where it's like I've messed up a movie shot or something, but. Yeah, I don't really ever think about school. I have one school related dream.

I want to say like maybe two months ago where it was a calculus class that I actually had real life experience with barely passing. I got literally a D minus in that class. I was worst ever course. Everything else I did pretty well in school. It was just that one calculus class. I just was not getting it. And I had a dream. Also, but the school I went to D minus was a past.

Anything but an F was a past. So I was good to go. I could move past it. But I had a dream that I was in that class again. And I was like at a final or some type of big test where I was like, I had me even opened my book. I haven't been to a single class. Like, I don't know what I'm, I'm going to fucking fail this. And then I woke up and I was like, oh, fucks. That's so stressful. Yeah, I only have to worry about mortgage payments.

I think when I close the peripheral fast, what's Anderson, did go to UT, and he's from Houston? Oh, nice. I don't want the Anderson's coming after me. I have a... I feel like... Sorry, I was just trying to find a picture, because the last time I was in England, I found

one of my dad's old pieces of schoolwork. It's dated November 1972 and it made me laugh so much because I guess he did the the wrote the date slightly wrong so his teacher just wrote idiot. I love to be a schooler time where a you this about you just you bore on. This wasn't in university right? That's like secondary school or high school. Yeah, you would have been in the equivalent of high school. Yeah, that's amazing.

I mean, you definitely couldn't do this teacher now. You would lose your job. Yeah, unless the student really wasn't idiot, then it would be like, okay, that one, that's fine. You got the date wrong? Yeah, he's an idiot. I always like what teachers would do, they would do tests and try to trick you in certain ways. Like, it'd be like, you know, make sure you read the instructions because in the instructions, I'm going to tell you not to do the last question, otherwise you fail.

Like, they put things in just to see if you were paying attention and actually reading it all. It's to be tricksters, I know. I definitely had teachers like that. My least favorite type of test were the multiple choice tests where it was like, it could be none of the options, it could be all of the options, it could be multiple of the options, or just one. And it was just like, because usually you could like weigh things out or cancel things out and stuff like that on those tests, but when it's like that, it's like, I don't fucking know. I had to do some stuff like that for work too. I don't know if you guys remember those like tests we had to do or like trainings we had to do for Warner. Oh yeah.

They definitely had trick questions in those. Yeah, it was basically stuff like, you know, making sure we're all respecting each other and know about like cyber security and stuff like that, which is I think very important knowledge to have, but it was funny because then it would test you at the end to make sure that you watch the whole thing and know the answers and stuff like that, and it's like it could be one or none. But do you think you needed the video to know the answers, or could you've done it without the front bit? I think it depends on the person. Me personally, I didn't need the video because I spent most of my life online. Some of the videos had specific information that you needed to retain,

like they told you, like specifically who to contact. So it's like- You know what, your email address. Right, so it's like those things you you needed to retain. Like they told you, like specifically who to contact. So it's like, right. So it's like those things you obviously needed to go through the video in order to know those things. You wouldn't be able to get to that otherwise. But you know, you're talking about that teacher that wrote idiot on your dad's homework. I'm sure I've told this story before on the podcast,

but when I was in second grade, I had a teacher who, if you were caught talking in class, she would duct tape your mouth shut. Oh God, wow. Yeah, and so you'd have to have duct tape on your mouth for the rest of the day. The rest of the day? I was there just like class. Yeah, because we were in that class all day. Like it was second grade, we didn't change classes.

I mean, and I bet you, like your mustache, that probably hurt. I mean, if you caught your chewing bubble gum, then you had to stick it on your nose. What a fucking psychopath. Is she in jail now? Uh, she's not in jail, but I don't think she taught it anymore after that year. I think that was her last year. Oh my god. Did you just go ballistic at school? I think that was her last. Oh my god. Teachers go ballistic at school. They've only teachers get fired and stuff.

They might not even get fired, but I definitely have some teachers that flew off the rail a little bit too much. Then I think that was warranted. Yeah. I think you're right. I think we all had those teachers' wages. They were just like fucking flip their shit. And it's like, okay, like all the kids in class were overreacting. Calm, you're ticked, it's reflecting second. What were you gaff?

Yeah, we had, it wasn't in my class. It was like one of the buildings next door, but apparently a teacher just went ballistic and started throwing chairs and shit and all the students ran out of the classroom. So he hit the fire alarm to make it seem like they were just leaving because of the fire alarm and to get like a bunch of witnesses to be like, no, yeah, he was like chucking shit at people. Yeah, that was a bit, I don't even really know what happened. I don't see you. Ah, probably not. I mean, is it illegal to throw a chair at a child? If you don't hit them, if you just glance them or miss, is it illegal?

I don't know, I guess intention is plays a part in that. I've got this weird little muckhole on YouTube where I'll just flip on YouTube and fall asleep. But at some point, it flipped onto a to catch a predator video. And now I'm just constantly just recommended Chris Hansen bust in a bunch of Pido dudes. And I'm amazed, because I've been just been watching a few. I'm amazed at how few of them actually go to prison. They just get like 36 months probation for praying.

So yeah, I guess throwing a chair, not nearly as bad as that. It's because they didn't actually commit the act. They just premeditated on it. Yeah, maybe so, because the kid is fictional. Maybe that plays the top. The kid is fictional. They make it up. This was fictional, but the crimes are real. I feel like though, you have the intention of intention of going like if you're talking to like 12 year old girl and you're like having intention of going over there and like doing something like even if the girl wasn't a real person I feel like that should still be illegal and you still be sentenced for something like that.

Yeah I agree. This is the moral quandary of minority report, right? Like, you just kind of have to find the intent was present. What I was going to say was the justice system fails us there. That's where the night raker comes in to serve justice, where the police fall short. But I really need to log out of my account because it's busted.

Like, I'll be watching some Let's Play or just one of the people I sub to. And then I'll look away and look back at it's Chris Hansen again. It's like I can't get these things. How can you need to retrain the algorithm? What if you start thumbs down? I think one by one, I can say,

like I don't want to see this and stuff like that. What if it comes down those videos any time they come up? Can I just say on the subject of the night raker, he would definitely be targeting pedophiles, right? Oh, yeah, of course. Except the only problem would be that because of his demeanor and his car, but it always looks like what. Everyone, everyone thinks he's a pedophile.

So he's constantly also being, even though that seems like, no, no, I'm hunting the fireball. He's always coming up with him. They're like, trick the rake. And he's like, I'm not like the real Peter is scurrying into the bushes behind him. He's like, meet me at 37th street. I've got to, I've got to purp.

But then they instead of targeting that guy, they go for the, yeah, there's probably coincidentally also got a really gruff voice too, so it doesn't help him. He sounds like a super beta. The set at least sounds like that. I don't know. I need to remind you how much you can. You just hear him coming with a little scrape of rake behind him.

He's pretty Kruger now. I keep picturing pretty Kruger every time we talk about him. That's why I've been picturing him in my mind as's pretty Krueger now. I keep picturing pretty Krueger every time we talk about him That's why I've been picturing in my mind of a pretty Krueger But I feel like a lot of the times when he does catch the pito the police find the guy unconscious on the floor We're just like a line down his face where he's clearly stepped on a rake and then the night raker It's just scurried away Several lines like the rake going across his face Well, why if you stand on a rake the rake end doesn't hit you in the face

It's right raker does it to them They're if you stand on a rake it doesn't pop up you're thinking of a whole Wait a rake pops up I'm thinking of the long time These little guys. I'm thinking of a standard procedure cartoon rake Okay, I was thinking I was thinking of the other plastic ones that like fan out real big So you're saying, you know this, a side show, Bob, I'm thinking right on the rake of different rakes.

So you're saying the night rake could just go that people and hit them with the rake end. Yes. Remember when, uh, when groundskeeper willies making out with the rake and he's got all the scrap scratches on his face like that. So there needs to be a night raker shirt, right? Absolutely. 100% I'm not right. Night raking is a day activity. Morning. I also think the night raker has a sidekick, the hoe.

He's a reformed stripper. Well, that reform. If you're stripping to make money, that's your thing. Maybe she just could be one night. Night Raker was breaking. She was walking home from her job. And maybe I don't know where it goes from there. Maybe she was being accosted and the night raker steps in.

And then she sees what a life of Thording Crime can mean. And she becomes the hoe. Well, there's the whole thing. Segway. Yeah. Remind me to thank all of our first members for supporting this stream. Thanks to all of our first members for supporting Ristratif to all our first members for supporting Rister T.

Oh, we appreciate we couldn't do all of this stuff without you guys. So thank you so much. Woo! Oh, that really tickled me. I love the night raker. I'm so happy, Gus, that you are the night raker. I don't know, no, no, we had to say that. Oh, sorry.

You don't need to know who it is. It's a morning activity. Oh, that's right. That's right. So who is the natural enemy of the night raker? Is it you? Who is no? It likes the morning leaf blower.

Yeah. The name is leaf. Yeah. I just get a rake. I don't have one. Really? There you have it. I mean, how one. Rubeen, there you have it. I mean, how many of you have rakes? It's not. It's like a grown up tool, innit?

I'm nothing to rake. You're not even have a plunger? No. You need more house tools. I need to grow up. I need to get some real big boy tools. Got a screwdriver. How about? Yeah, as you own furniture and a home, so you should have tools to fix things with, right?

Yeah. That's not, I don't think that's like a thing. I got like my first little toolkit. It was like a tiny box that had all the essentials when I moved into my first apartment. I feel like that's like, when you live on your own, that's like the first thing you get. Right? Yeah, I think so.

We have, I mean, oh my God, I literally have a toolbox arriving this Thursday, I think, because we had until this point, the same like toolkit that you're describing, which is maybe like briefcase size. Yeah. And it's got like, I'm just screwdrivers and hammers and a level in it.

But we've been accumulating stuff. And that's just like loose and willy nilly. And that's just in a random container. And I'm like, only there was a container specifically meant for tools. Oh, my God. I went to my dollars. So that's that's on the way.

You excited for it to arrive? Everyone's accomplishing so much in corn. Well, that accomplishing so much. We're digging into the nitty gritty of our lives, I think. And I think that's a good opportunity for you to Gavin to get these little tools that you need. Yeah, things that you owe you once. I need shed shit.

Yeah, do you have a shed? Yeah, I'm a shed. No, I used to. Not anymore. I've got a shed, but I'm scared of it. I never go in there. I mean, I'm scared of it. I don't feel like it's filled with spiders or something.

And I don't ever want to go in there. It's like full of murder while I'm going. The shed is the spider's house. They can stay in there and I won't bother them. I kind of worry about that. We have a box that has our... We have like a fake Christmas tree that we package up after Christmas is done.

I'm always scared because it's like in an area that has access to outside kind of, and I'm worried that it's just gonna be filled with bugs by the time we open it up for next Christmas, like budget dead bugs. Yeah, it's terrifying. I don't want it. Yeah, my old shirt.

I'm not gonna do it. My shirt didn't lock. It just had two sliding doors that didn't have anything attached to them so you could put a padlock through. And then people would just come and pillage my shit. They took all the cool stuff. Wait, that happened to you? You what?

That happened to you. I didn't realize that you got stuff. Yeah, but I didn't have any real tools in there. It wasn't like a shit. It was just like slumber guys stuff. So they took the didn't have any real tools in there. It wasn't like a, a shed. It was, it was just like, slimmer guys stuff. So they took the flame thrower and the crossbow and like, all the stuff that was... Imagine being a robber and going to get like a fucking rake

in a hose and you open up a tool shed and there's a fucking flame thrower in there. I would be like, Jackpot. Jackpot. Yeah. They like broke my side gate. They broke the lock on that and then just pillaged my shed while I didn't live there, which was very nice of them. In chat, Kai Fearing just asked, is that a ball on the floor behind you, Gavin?

No, I tell you what it is. It's the shitty ceiling fan ball broke. I know that's the thing that was on my ceiling fan. But I thought it would be a normal, they're so boring. I'm not even going to... It's a weird bike ball. Yeah, it's like a little thingy one. But it looks like it will kill me if I try and pull it out

without flipping a breaker. So that's why it's still down there after a week. I thought it'd be fine. It'll be fine. I like how you just don't put it to the side or on a counter or a shelf somewhere. It's just sitting behind you. What do. What are you on the side of? It just so it's not on the floor right in your shot and like if I had a fucking

Like bulb just on the floor that I'd be like oh, let me get it out of my shot to clean this up I think it's nice the cats fit over there. I think it's a nice little thing to keep there I was asking about it. They get distracted. No, I mean, that's good. Yes, they're like, oh, look what a visually interesting thing. I mean, it's no brick wall. Oh, still there.

Should we all grab one interesting thing, our vicinity, that wasn't just immediately on the floor behind us? Yeah, let's do that show and tell. So I just have to find this. I don't know why it was just down there on the... Oh, Lisa, I was gonna say that I like, I love your setup. Like, it looks, do you have like a purple light or something?

It looks really cool. We got a light above us and then behind us, and they can go like golden yellow too, but it's been like really nice just to give some dynamic, you know, quality to our setup because there's not much going on here. Thank you. I have a thank you note that Bill and I wrote to me. Oh, not to brag or anything, but we hung out once. Well, catch me. Oh nice plant.

Oh nice plant. You know, get me through the days. I just know when I got a stick around for this this guy. I can see she's grabbing stuff. But I wore pants today. I really thought we'll pour the podcast. What if I have to get up at one point? I have the first episode of Ruby script and the blood fest script in my room. So I thought those were really special to me, really sentimental because it's like, Ruby obviously is a huge part of my life in my career

and then blood fest was the first movie that ever, only movie I was ever in. So things called that. Oh, I have something really cool. The diamond YouTube button. I have my penis from Lazity. Can you show that? It's really because I ripped it out on the last day of filming it. What in the world?

I'm gonna say, that's not even what I imagine the color of your penis would be. Look at this blood. Oh my god. What else do I have? It's so flat. I don't really have anything interesting where I'm sitting. What about that brick, the fourth one from the bottom? I don't really have anything interesting where I'm sitting. What about that break?

The fourth one from the bottom. I see twice. I have this little like my old roommate gave me this little like music box. Let's just cute. I love that. Oh. She's asleep. It's so nice. Oh Jesus I only have to poison so oh shut the fuck up

How unprofessional of it to interrupt People are not happy with your penis and chat Kevin you know, it's uh, it is what it is um People are not happy with your penis and chat What it is It's back in its drawer now where it will remain That was that was the first laser team right yeah the penis. Okay, can you guys hear that? The only yeah, one day never known then okay still going and I feel like it's getting louder I felt like I heard it better once it moved away from the mic

I read the just earlier today that Tik Tok has now been downloaded two billion times Which is mine blowing to me Because like a third of the world because there's only 7 million people in the world. You said 2 billion, right? Yeah, whatever. What did I do wrong? No, no, I just made a dumb joke. Apparently their parent company is some company I never heard of.

I guess it's called Bite Dance. And their parent company is still a startup and their value that $80 billion dollars. Wow. I think of the people I don't know if you guys watched TikTok as much as I do but there's people on that app specifically this one girl named Charlie who I'm sure everybody who has TikTok knows Charlie she's like this 15 year old girl, she has brown hair, and she basically dances on the app. And she has like, yeah, everyone does, but I think she, that's pretty much all she does. I don't really think she like does any other content, but she has like some insane amount of followers, and I can't imagine being that famous on an app so quickly like that. Like that must be just mind blowing.

I looked it up. It says 53.3 million fans, 3.6 billion likes. Yeah. That is insane. Like she's got the one in most famous people in the world. She's 16. She just's 16. 16. She dressed up 16. Between like one to 60 seconds. I think you could go up to 60 seconds, but I think you could make something as short as like two or

three seconds. I don't know how the shortest you could do, but I just feel like pumping out content for that kind of medium must be because we are on a treadmill as well where we're like okay we're just constantly producing, constantly making and you'll make a video that six months pass by and you've made you know hundreds and hundreds of videos since then it's not like we're making you know one movie a year and that's our project what we do is is to an extent fleeting but that this is like even more fleeting to me like Like I can't even imagine, I don't have TikTok. 10 or 12 of these a day.

These TikToks. I think with this one, what it must be like for actors who have been in like 200 movies, where I'd be like, do they even remember all the movies they're in? And then I started to have that with like achievement hunt videos and let's place

where it was like I would see a video and be like oh yeah I remember doing that one but now I'm at the point where I see one and it's like I don't have any memory of even making this I wouldn't have even known I played this game and it's scary there's just too much. Well it's a little different. You do a let's play and it might take a few hours at your time but if you know someone films a movie that's several it might take a few hours of your time, but if someone films a movie, that's several weeks, if not a couple months of time, but they didn't do it. That's true.

Yeah, I feel like I remember the videos I edited more than videos that I'll be in. I spent so much more time with the content. Same. Going, you know. But yeah, and people like quote back things to me that I said and I'm like, I do not remember saying that at all.. We could make we could slice this podcast up into like 60 or 90 TikToks, right?

And just distribute it that way. How would the penis be? That would be deleted. We did a TikTok with an inflatable penis. It was like that trend where someone like comes in and then poses and then it switches to the object and Chad did one as if he was the penis and I got taken down like immediately When Wayne came over to my house to watch the Matrix at one time I answered the door with that penis sticking through my fly and I thought he was gonna have a heart attack I just looked at it and then he looked immediately away, I'm like, like panic, like five seconds.

Damn, that should have been a bit I did during last laugh. Yeah. I like that he didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable about your loose penis. He's such a nice guy that he didn't want to embarrass me. He didn't acknowledge it. But I just black left movie. My pain. Why just nod about while watching the Matrix.

He just bows to you. No more thing about it. I do think Barbie are totally on about the bow culture. I want to be a bow culture. Me too. I think it would be a nice change of pace. I think that's more a cycle. I think that shirt says a nice change of pace. I think that's more recycled. I think that shirt says that you'd be interested in it. My shirt?

My shirt? At least a shirt. At least a shirt. I mean, I'm in my rude and quiet shirt. Oh yeah, that one too. Yeah, that's a bad shirt. But at least a shirt definitely says that about her I think. She's a summer bell. I don't know, you just show off the sleeve. It's like, you just show off this thing. Just listen to my sleeve. Because we're keeping things loose. No. You used to edit at least.

It's like really sparingly. So like recently I cut, you know, we did the PSA, and I cut that, and then we did a quarantine blog recently, which is just everyone in fun house like showing off, but they're doing a quarantine, and I cut that. But I, those are like few and far between. It's more of a time thing, because I do enjoy editing, and I sometimes I get like more of a sense of gratification from, from cutting than I do like performing

and stuff. Yeah, I actually, I no longer edit for a team and hunter, but the other day I just felt the urge to edit something really quick. So I just took a bunch of action replays that I'd saved in GTA and I just cut a little some dumb montage to music. Just because I just missed making something. And if the chat mentions manual Samuel because I just missed making something. And if the chat mentions manual Samuel, I'm gonna go nuts. I think that to like when we're in quarantine or trying new stuff, I kind of, like, it's this sort of thing where I'm like,

oh, this idea, like I really see it playing out in my head, I kind of want to cut it to see like the quarantine blog thing. I was like, you know, I know how this is going to look. I was like, I know how it's gonna look. I kinda wanna see how it's gonna turn out. And it was also just to like alleviate the workload from everybody a little bit. Yeah. Oh, speaking of quarantine content,

I keep meaning to bring this up with you at least. We played, I don't know if you watched it. We did a video where we played guest who, where all the characters were like, people from Fun House and a G-Mahunter. That's brilliant. I didn't get to watch all of it, but I think that's like the most ingenious idea.

We're definitely going to do, I think, more videos in that, because I mean, we loved playing it, and I think the audience really liked it too. So let me know in chat if you guys want to see more of that, but it was really fun. But there was one question where, because we were doing it only based off non-physical things. So it would be like, would this person never be late

to a meeting or something like personality things, basically? And the question was, would this person be able to beat Barbara up? And. I was immediately dismissed. You were immediately dismissed. And then they were going through everyone,

and they got to you, least and they're like, I think Barbara could beat up Elise. Absolutely. And I was like, I don't know, Elise was feisty. I feel like you could take me. I don't know. I don't think so. I'm also really poorly coordinated. And I don't, I think you have to do something. I don't know. I don't know that I could psych my, if people were like, fight, like get into a ring and fight.

I don't know that I could psych myself up. I thought about this the other day. I'm about to fight. I thought if someone like tracked me on the street, would I be able to defend myself? And I was like, I don't know that I could get the iron me to do it. Like even if it was worth it to fight back,

like I don't, I don't know. I feel like something happened at, I think it was when we were in Australia doing one of the live shows, but we were like running through the audience. And I feel like something happened with like some guy just not letting go of your arm and you just like ripped it away

and then carried on with it. Oh, someone like, some dude like grabbed my ass. Oh, it was your ass. And so I questioned, what's the name, where does he live? I'm not. Um, well, I ended up like alone because we were up in the rafters during a Let's Play Live. And Adam and I had gone up together and then we got separated and then it happened and

then the dude got like super aggressive with me. And then it was funny because it was funny seeing the reactions of Fun House and Achieve and Hunter because they were both genuinely concerned and angry. But the Fun House, it was funny because when I told everyone in Fun House about it, they were like, if you see this dude let us know because we want to go talk to him. And when Achieve and Hunter heard about it, they were like, we're going to beat the shit out of this dude. I'm so curious.

I'm so curious. I think that's the time we did it. I'm not sure if it was later that night or on a different night, but we were just like, like I was holding you a hand as we were running through at one point. We didn't plan it or anything,

but we just like met up at some point in the middle and I was like, hey, come with me. We were just scared of that happening again. And it's unfortunate, because that's such an anomaly, that's something like that happens. Yeah., you know, that, that's something like that happens. Yeah.

Um, because our community is, is really, really great. I think, I don't know if it was like some kid that just somehow got drunk or something before it was, was being, I mean, it's, I get like, I'm with you. Our community is so respectful and wonderful. It's, yeah. And that's why I think we have the ultimate trust. Like, most people would never run out in the crowd of their audience But I feel like yeah, you know, we trust ours so much that we do that stuff

But yeah, there's always that can always just be one Stand out lunatic who just makes it everyone scared to do it Unfortunately, yeah, it's always bad eggs here and there. Yeah, that's me. Just for me, it grows like the night raker stepping up. Yeah. You almost got a dab in the split take the third. It's just so much. Man, at least a comic, at least a one-page comic that our animation makes for the night raker.

Come on, like a new idea. Move over Ruby and Camp Camp. Here comes the night raker, you know? I feel like the night IP. He's like move over Ruby and camp camp. Here comes the Night Raker, you know? I feel like the Night Raker could be a character in Ruby too. Night Raker and Ruby. I'm just like, yeah, like he's in the in the in the in the mainline Night Raker canon. He'd be just like disgusting, you know, version of himself,

but then when he's in Ruby, he's this like being disgusting, you know, version of himself, but then when he's in Ruby, he's this like being, you know, beautified like anime, Night Raker version. I think what we should do is stick, we should stick rake dudes into the background of several projects but every time that I rake is like, no, that's not him, that's not him, that's just a guy with a rake. I was just like, dark and still wet. Yeah, until the true night rake Stories from yeah, that's the evening raker Oh Evening does not have the same ring to it as as night. Yeah

There's like the desk I don't know the desk sweep like what we already got the desk, I don't know, the desk sweep, like, well, we've already got the desk boys. I got the desk boys. The desk boys. Oh my god. I still wanna do that song. Was it hard to breathe? Is that what it's called? Yeah.

I wanna do that song, but with me, Jackie and Meg, as you Alfredo and Trevor. Like, us in your costumes. Like, us in your costumes. Just for shot, us in your costumes. Like, now that obviously, like, not singing, but maybe like, lip syncing and stuff like that. I feel like that would be really fun. I would watch that for sure. Because there are quarantine version you guys could probably cobble together.

I think there's so many shots of like all three of them together though that I feel like it'd be better if we do and we're all back together. God we got some looks doing that. There were just people everywhere that day watching us grinded and thrust in all over. It was a lot of man. It was, uh, I don't know how I felt about it. It like awoken something in me. I just love the fact that I have whatever that thing is where if a camera is on

embarrassment, just goes out the window like that. I am like a shy person who's very easily embarrassed, but because I was just a guy with a camera, just instantly like, well, I've got to I've got a deliver on this. And I'm doing all this like just the worst. Yeah. So embarrassed now. But it's funny.

It's like, what's the cameras on? Then you have that attitude that, well, you need to get footage or you need to do something to just to fly it. Like when we did the, uh, the documentary for conventions, it was like that. Like I did not want to, I was, you know, really shy about trying to approach some people, especially like at the Abraham Lincoln Convention, but then I was like, oh, we got the, we came all the way out here, we have the cameras, like if I don't go out there and if something doesn't happen, then it's just a waste of time.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I also had that during the, not that it was embarrassing, but when I was in India with Bernie for the ASMR documentary, we were having this big argument with the luggage guys at the train station. And they were basically just ripping us off and we were going back and forth negotiating the price. And that was like my worst case scenario.

I hated being in the middle of that, but because it was being filmed, I was just loving it. It was like a different level. I was really enjoying it, like chiming in, like, I was really happy. You are. Yeah, but it's just so I have character for me. It's amazing that that can happen. Yeah.

Change me, man. We've been doing this long enough where I guess it becomes almost like second nature. I think you don't stop to think about it anymore because it's just what you do. It's just that weird, but it's been doing it for a long time now. Especially you. Three decades.

Long, long time. Is it three decades? That is now, isn't it? I was listening to the first episode of that podcast. You guys did it with Bernie, the Stuck at Hell and RT podcast, which are available on the site. I think the first one was free and then the rest of our first exclusive. Yes. But I was listening to the first one and Bernie made that joke of you guys doing the podcast

for three decades or something like that. It's true. It's been three decades of excellence. But I think we're out of time for this particular episode. So we do need to wrap things up. What I'm mind everyone is that we have lots of live programming here on RTTV. We have a fun house coming up next with an Animal Crossing stream. I'll be there too. So I'm actually going to miss the post show because I'm going to hop on with Alana

to play some animal crossing. I think Fiona, Lindsay, other Lindsay, a bunch of us gals are going to be playing Animal Crossing after this on their stream. So stay around around you'll see me in like two seconds Yeah, so if you're watching our TV just stay here and stay tuned for that and We'll see you guys again next time. Bye. You guys so much for having me. Thank you. Please show You're all always so lovely. No you I'm more stretching than lovely. You brought us the night raker. No forever in your days And you're all along.
