Hello, welcome to the receive podcast. I'm Gus.
I'm Brandon. I'm Becca.
I'm Blaine. I'm Gus.
I still feel like I get fucked up by this 5PM start time.
I still feel like I should have more time to like read or get ready.
It's like 5PMaks up on you.
Yeah, you usually have to rush from whatever else you're doing.
And you're just like, all right, I gotta give podcasts or no,
I've got to look over all my shit.
Are you okay?
You need a little talk?
No, I'm okay, I'm okay.
I got some stuff.
We ever need to go to it.
I try to put a, I put together a collection of like stories and stuff.
Did you?
I always do.
I don't think I, but I'm worried because normally whenever Brandon's on the podcast
all day long before the podcast you send me all the shit you want to talk about and I always say don't send it to me.
Don't send it to me. But it helps if somebody else has seen it and it's not just me trying to just explain everything.
Like you can relate to it. What is part of the fun? Is the explanation that way the people who are watching who don't know they get the explanation to all right I got one then okay, I haven't told you
There's nothing more I'm excited about in life right now
Then the jugalow march on Washington. Have you guys seen that yeah, I mean, it's actually a pretty big civil rights thing that people should
Support theoretically. I don't know that silly. Well, do you know who the insane clown Posse is real fat? I've never heard of him
I talked about sorry. I talked about getting off off track because of the 5 p.m. start time
I forgot to say who the episode's brought to you by I'm sorry. No, that's not your fault. It's my fault
So this episode received podcast is brought to you by insane clown Posse
boomerang 5 4 and me undies. Thank you for sponsoring this episode of the podcast
I love you guys sorry. Sorry. It came like 30 seconds late I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm Mike, I'm know, that kind of helped with everybody likes, every group likes a good, we're victimized narrative.
So they kind of went with that and everybody feels like or the jugalos have to feel like they have to come together. So I guess, I don't know a year ago, they scheduled a March on Washington, but in that time, people have just completely forgot and just like don't care about this issue at all.
of just completely forgot and just like don't care about this issue at all.
So they're gonna be on Washington marching
on one side of the mall,
and then there's a alt-right rally on the other side.
So they're gonna be like circling around one another.
And I just, you know, they're gonna have the pain
if they was thinking, is there like a dude on the alt-right side
who's got like the juggalo face pain on?
Yeah, like half like confederate flag on one side and like juggalo face on another.
I'm sure there'll be some overlap, but I mean you can't say that that group would support one
side over another. Well the thing about the there's always going to be overlap with any group
and any other group. With the juggalo's though, like the fact that they have been marked as a gang,
any of those guys that for whatever reason fucking love that band have been marked as a gang, any of those guys that, for whatever reason, fucking love that band,
and might have had a tattoo from high school,
they are losing jobs and potentially losing custody
of children in the real cases.
Really?
Yeah, because it's like, oh, you're associated with a gang,
you have an insane clown-posy tattoo,
then no, you're not gonna get your kid back.
Has it happened?
Yeah, people have lost jobs, and it's happened? Yeah, they're like people who have lost jobs
and it's negatively affecting them
because they're labeled as a gang.
Even though not every ICP fan is actually
like, you know, protects and violence
or gang activities.
No, that's fucked up.
Yeah, they should march.
Yeah, I wanna go.
I'm gonna watch.
Are you going?
I wanna go.
I've never got anything about them,
but I mean, it is a big fight.
You could go in filming.
Yeah, I'll absolutely go. Saturday, September 16th. Yeah, big go in filming. Yeah, I'll absolutely go Saturday September 16th
Yeah, that makes complete sense. No, I can see them going in March and I start to dock
Brandon the juggler. I'll do it. I think of make sure you make sure you get some of that Fago while you're there
Oh, yeah, they love Fago
They've probably made like millions of dollars on that. I think my favorite juggler story
What's the concert they have every year?
Gathering so yeah, it's a big a big concert, I guess, invite a bunch of independent music acts.
And I think this is true.
I remember seeing the story, but maybe it was made up.
Teola Tequila was performing for some reason.
So what was she performing for?
What was she performing for?
I don't know.
Blog?
I do not know why she's, well, she made a music album.
I'm used to.
You never know.
She's a music album.
She's not a comedy album.
Yeah, not a comedy album, man. Uh, not a my favorite musician
He stays but isn't he little tequila she was she was like the mic on my face
Okay, all right and then you did an album a Nazi a great music. Yeah, well, she was crazy
And now she was now she's a Nazi
But yeah, her music's really crazy. It's like one of the lyrics are I'm not gonna fuck your man
He's my number one fan, but I might fuck him
It's crazy.
So anyways, she's performing at the Juggalo concert
and there were reports that somebody
threw human feces at her.
Nice, okay.
Which no matter what you think about her music,
it's not cool.
So I don't know, I mean, I think it depends
if they're gonna to get their fans
amped up or they're going to try to be like, Hey, try to be a little bit more polished. It would
be who it's going to be. I can't imagine it's not going to be awesome. Patrick, let me know
that in 2015 in saying, Clown Posse won an appeal to remove their jugalo fan base from the FBI's
list of organized gangs. Good for them. Yeah, good for them. Yeah.
I don't have anything.
Well, I mean, it would behoove them to go and have a peaceful protest because if they're
trying to like, no, no, no, we're not a gang, then they shouldn't be like wrecking shit.
Is there a juggalo registry?
Like how does the FBI cross reference the juggalo profile here?
Like is it like when you move into a neighborhood, you have to let everyone know that you're a
juggalo, like you're knocking door to door
What I'm sure it's like search terms if you posted on Facebook, you know their their organizations are constantly coming through that stuff and like marking it like their
catalogs that just show you
You know like they they know everything because like we volunteer so much information to the government right because we have the choice
Like think about it.
Yeah, like all the things that you post on Facebook,
all of your opinions on your Twitter,
like your search history even.
Who you follow?
That's public, yeah, who you follow.
Like, we volunteer so much information about who we are.
So I gotta throw some crazy stuff in there.
Yeah.
Like, follow Tila Tequila.
I used to follow her.
Did you?
Yeah, cause she used to just be crazy. And then she became like crazy T. La T. La T. La I used to follow her. Did you? Yeah, she used to just be crazy
and then she became like crazy racist.
No, she's a Nazi.
Yeah, before she was like
so she had that her brain
in standing.
In that reality show.
Remember it was like a dating show?
Did she?
I think it was like a bisexual dating show.
It was like MTV 2 or something.
No, it was on MTV.
It was a big show.
Prime MTV.
We should have male and female contestants.
I think it was the first show that we had.
I saw it love with T. La T. La.
Yeah, there you go. Thanks. That's wow
I'm doing a concept. I know a lot about this. It came on a time where I watched a lot of MTV
Hmm, I love
October 2007. Do they still do like all of the off-shoes? I was in college like snow
FX is FX X. Do they still do like ESPN 2? ESPN 3?
Yeah, I think they're up to like 27 ESPN
like ESPN 2, ESPN 3, ESPN 2. I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I think so.
I mean, we do multiple YouTube channels. How's that any different? That's true. It's true. It at night. Nick Gass, like Game Show. The Game Show Network.
Oh, I didn't even know that one.
Yeah.
Here's Abid's Lenses and the Hidden Temple fan.
Well, it's just like, you know,
the band with those channels becomes so much cheaper,
you know, over time.
And then cable companies are constantly looking for shit.
They can bundle and sell you.
We always get like people wanting to work
with Rooster Teeth and to be like,
hey, like we've got this big thing coming out.
If you want to do a collaboration with us,
what are some ideas that you might have?
And we call those RFPs, request for pitches or something?
Proposal.
So anyways, nine times that a tin,
I'm always pitching something that has to do with a legends
of the hidden temple life quest,
where it's like, well, we go to an obstacle course, right?
I always want to do that.
Yeah, it's fun.
Yeah, get those shirts.
The shirts are really cool.
I will say it's clear.
I'm not trying to shit on the juggalos, like the people who follow the insane clamp.
I didn't come across like that.
Okay, it didn't.
I just wanted to make sure I was trying to judge and say anything bad.
I get it.
I think it's a lot of young kids who have a lot of anger and teen angst and typically
I don't think the juggalos are teenagers.
I think that's where they start.
They go with 20s.
Yeah, but if you're going to like a march or a gathering of the Juggalos, you're not a teenager.
Well, your mom can take you.
She's in clown makeup as well.
Your mom takes you to like, you know, conventions.
She'll take you to the Juggalos.
Does the Juggalos have their mom drop them off like two or three blocks away?
Like, you want to be seen?
Like, oh, mom, go away.
Yeah, or the mom tries to art and she shows be seen? Like, oh, mom, go away.
Yeah, or the mom tries to art and she shows up
in the clown face paint too, trying to connect.
No, I'm with Beck, I think they're older.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I don't think they're teenagers.
So I'm sure one thing that everyone is curious to talk about
is of course this hurricane that hit over the weekend.
I felt like it's really crazy.
Everything's going on in Houston's terrible,
but I felt like people in Austin had a super freak out
at the end of last week.
Like they were justly so I think.
Yeah, there were runs on water.
Like you couldn't buy water anywhere at any grocery store.
There were lines to fill up with gasoline.
Really?
I missed all this.
I just got back into the country on Saturday.
I'm here.
We went to get a bunch of gallons of water,
like just in case, I mean,
it's the thing with the weather is,
our weather, we just fuck,
we don't know anything about weather.
We think we do, but there's so much stuff you can't predict.
And think about all the people in history who were fucked,
they didn't know they were gonna get fucked.
But I was just like, you think about like rain in Austin, right?
And that was like worst case scenario for Austin
was a lot of rain, like we get a lot of rain.
We've had flooding in the past.
I think of all the floods I've been through in Austin.
You know, I've lived here for a long time now.
I've never once had my water go out.
Yeah.
But it does get, it could get tainted.
Yeah.
But that's always like, it seems like that's like the outskirts of Austin where that happens.
Is it like seventh in Lamar that always floods whenever we have that full creek down there?
Did it actually?
No, I drove down there.
I saw some pictures of like they had sandbags this year.
I mean, they, yeah, because was it last year?
That they got really fucked up?
Was that the moral they flood?
Yeah, yeah.
It was like 7-11 was just like,
and that goodwill got totally destroyed.
Yeah, I think part of it was the stuff
that people were putting out.
And it wasn't just like news channels looking to hype you.
It was like the weather channel was that this is one of the worst storms we've ever seen.
So I guess it's just trying not to use past experiences, you know, to think what it's
going to be like and just try to be safe. Cause, you know, I mean, we have to learn our
lessons and not just Hurricane Katrina, which no one could have predicted the levees, you
know, crashing. But even Hurricane Rita, where it was just have predicted the levees, you know, crashing, but even
Hurricane Rita, where it was just a lot of rain and wind, people were in those situations
because there's so much stuff you can't predict, you know, they didn't have water or they
were stuck somewhere, they had to be rescued. So it's just an issue of you as powerful
and as far as becoming terms of technology, we still can't do shit and don't know shit
about mother
nature and the weather.
Yeah, and I think the latest figure they said was that Harvey had dumped 11 trillion gallons
of water on Texas.
Thank you.
They said the equivalent would be if you covered South Carolina in water, 10 inches deep.
Wow.
That's insane.
Wow.
And to be clear, like Austin's pretty much fine.
A lot.
I saw a lot of tweets.
There are people like, how do I have everything in Austin to say, we're fine Houston is yeah, it's a lay in this right now
The last I heard was the storm's gonna go back to the Gulf
Pick up more water and I don't know if it's gonna get stronger and pass through Houston again
So it's really not gonna get much much better. Well, because right now what I heard is there like if you're in that area
You can't get out because the roads are closed and then they're not letting people in unless like oh
Which is fucking awesome the these guys called the cage in navy dudes from Louisiana with boats
There are guys that organized during Katrina
They came out to Texas and they're helping people. I saw done Kirk. Yeah, I saw maybe the dumbest post ever on the Austin subreddit the other day. I know.
Oh, wow.
Maybe it was yesterday the day before.
Someone was like, I want to go down to Houston to help the people out.
Does anyone have a boat I can borrow?
Oh, my God.
Oh, fucking idiot.
It's just like, I want attention.
That's what that post is.
I just want to attention.
Tell me how great a person I am.
Like, you're probably going to get in the way and you might divert resources from someone someone else that needs that yeah that person would ultimately not know how to handle the boat
Get hooked on something or whatever and then they would be someone that needs to get help right?
Yeah, stupid asshole and not to dismiss the fact that he wanted help there are other ways to help Right right right right right Red Cross. You can visit RedCross.org or text
90999 to donate 10 bucks. They're not a sponsor. I don't know why they would be a sponsor just letting you know if you want to help out to
The people right now in Harvey by Harvey in Houston. You could do that. There's an easy way to do it
Or send my mom a hundred dollars
I
Yeah, brands parents you're yeah my parents, all my friends.
They stayed. Yeah, I mean, they told, and the Houston mayors being criticized for not trying
to evacuate the city. And that's a really easy position to take. And maybe information's
changed. It's a really controversial issue. But I guess just, I understand what he's saying.
You cannot safely or adequately evacuate a metroplex of,
I don't know how many people are in the metro of
the margin in the world.
5 million or 6 million.
And I think the city limits is maybe four,
because the same thing's gonna happen
that happened with Rita is that the highways
are just gonna be completely clogged.
That happen to go anywhere.
More people died on the road evacuating from Rita
than died from the storm.
Yeah, no.
It makes sense.
The harder thing is you look at the numbers and you look at there are people who have to
be rescued.
Hopefully, there's not a lot of people who've lost their lives.
But with respect to all the other people in Houston, the idea that people should just stay
in their houses as long as they're not in danger.
In terms of the numbers, it works.
The strategy plays out
It's just hard because when you look on the news and you see somebody
Having to be rescued emotionally. You're like well why didn't everybody evacuate?
but you know people are in their homes and
They might be flooded the homes might be flooded but for the most part with respect to those six million people
People are okay, but as the rain keeps coming,
reservoirs are filling up, buy-users are already filled, it's just gonna get worse.
And the other facet, sorry if I'm talking too much, I'll shut up once his.
You don't want to diminish the human factor. There is another thing, the economic factor,
that is one of the biggest commercial cities in the country with energy. And you not only have, not a lot of industries, all
these closed, the businesses closed, but refineries as well, which not only a big part of Texas,
but a big part of the country, and a lot of the stuff that are exporting outside of the
country as well. So not saying one's more important than the other, but this is a huge, huge
issue. Yeah, I mean, the airports, both airports in Houston are closed. I think Intercontinental
is closed until Thursday. I took a screenshot. I shared it with you earlier today of like
all the air traffic in Texas and you see all these planes in Dallas, all these planes in
Austin, and then like nothing over Houston. So that one plane, which is probably like the
weather channel. Yeah, it was like a little sess nose, something, probably someone.
I read somewhere that Southwest was flying victims out for free.
Yeah, they were stuck at hobby.
I don't like, I sent Brandon a photo earlier.
I don't know how they flew because I saw photos of the hobby runways underwater.
Weird. Maybe they had.
Probably called hydroplane.
Not hydroplane.
Damn it. Let's see planes. See planes. People. Weird. Maybe they had, probably called hydroplane. Not hydroplane.
Damn it. Let's see plane.
See plane.
See plane.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Like that photo I sent to Brandon earlier,
it looks like it would be just,
see if I can get it.
Like a flooded street somewhere,
but it's the actual runway.
And you can see like the little marker indicating
which runway it is.
It looks like a lake.
So, Becky, you were out,
so you didn't, but did you guys do any sort of like,
doomsday prep when the storm was coming?
I made sure my internet was on the battery backup.
That was it.
That was it.
Oh, there it is.
That's the Houston Hobby runway.
And that's a fucking like eight foot tall stop sign,
probably.
Yeah, you can see that little 422 sign
for like when you're texting on the runway.
Jeez.
And the highways do the same thing.
There's like a 20 lane highway and it's just completely underwater.
Jesus.
But yeah, I mean, I wasn't in Austin, like I said, I wasn't worried.
We're so far from the coast and we've had burst rain and flooding before.
So I knew where I was was fine because back when the flooding happened in 2015,
I lost power for like 27 hours
I know it's nothing like what you've experienced but after when they brought my power back up
They like cut all of the trees in my neighborhood along the power lines and then they reran all new power lines
So ever since then I've never lost power at all so I knew I would most likely be fine
Yeah, and we're lucky because we have the lakes
I mean we have two giant dams that they try to empty all the water into that just let out water into the lakes and the river. So it's, you know, we're lucky. And it's just tough.
It's tough to constantly remember that and be thankful for what you never think about you have
until you obviously see people or unfortunately, if it happens to you, the things that you don't.
This weekend, I didn't step outside like at all. I was just like, it's raining out.
I'm gonna stay in, play the U Games and write.
That's all I'm gonna do.
And it was pretty great, but Sunday's my pizza day.
So I was gonna have to go out and I unfortunately live very close
to a via through on three.
So I always interchange between home,
so I was gonna be through on three.
So I ordered my pizza, I was gonna walk to via to go get it.
And I hadn't been out probably in like 36 hours
of outside of the apartment complex.
The first step I took out eight inch puddle of water,
just like immediately, don't try to put it into it.
And I was like, fuck!
I'm convinced I'm gonna put your foot in the pizza oven
when you get there, try it off real fast.
It's really what.
So it was amazing because there was no traffic
in Austin all of a, I guess people did what you did, they just stayed inside. So it was amazing because there was no traffic in Austin all of a sudden, I guess people did what you did.
They just stayed inside.
Yeah.
So it was great getting around.
I know.
And I have a Jeep, so I'm just like, yeah, for a wheel drive.
I have a Prius.
Go ahead.
It's fine.
No problem at all.
Yeah, it was amazing.
I had family call me like, oh, are you okay?
Is everything fine?
It's fine.
It's totally fine.
I saw one down tree branch and that was it.
Yeah, we live on top of a hill.
So if we were flooded, then the entire city's,
juh, hugh.
I'm on like the top floor of my apartment complex,
so I'll be fine.
I was actually thinking about like,
whose house I would raid if the world ended.
So I mean, it's interesting,
because I go to my house and I see like five jugs of water,
and I'm like, yeah, obviously didn't need to hear,
but why shouldn't I should just have this all the time?
And we're hopefully getting a house soon, and I'm not gonna build a bunker,
but it'd be nice to have, you know, just these
that I doomsday, but I guess shit you don't foresee.
Oh, man, I do want a bunker now. You know, in the when that okay, I say, did I ever tell you you about the house I looked at that had three bomb shelters on it?
No.
No.
It's like, it's pretty central Austin,
but I looked at it like eight years ago
and I was turned at the house and it was only
like, okay, house, then I saw like a hatch in the yard
and I was like, what's that?
A hatch, that's awesome.
I'm just so.
And the realtor was like, oh, there's a bomb shelter there.
It's like, oh, that's weird.
I then walked into the backyard.
Now there was another one. I was like, what's that? Like, oh, and then she looks oh, there's a bomb shelter there. It's like, oh, that's weird. They walked into the backyard. Now there was another one.
I was like, what's that?
Oh, no, she looks at this.
There's three of them.
So are they technically full blown bomb shelters
where they like tornado shelters?
The realtor didn't have a key to get into them.
So I couldn't see them.
So I don't know what it was.
But it was three different hatches that supposedly
lit to three different shelters
that were not connected to each other.
So that's fucking insane because people in Texas
don't really get tornado shelters
because it's so fucking hard to, yeah,
it's because they are grass.
What is it?
Ground rock?
Ground rock, yeah, like the bedrock or whatever it is.
It's so fucking hard to drill into.
That's why it's a pain in asking a pool in Texas.
So this guy built three.
When was it built?
I don't remember.
I looked at that house eight or nine years ago,
so it's been a while. Maybe
interesting like to just track what was going on in the world when I built it.
Probably 50s if I had to guess. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, growing up my best friends house. They had a tornado shelter with like, you know, the French door
metal hatch and we just always wanted to play down there. Like it was so novel and cool. Did you
play tornado? Like, did you play paper pretend? Like they were playing outside? Weed you board down
there and just that's cool. Yeah, that's cool. That's really fun, childhood memory.
That's insanely scary.
Did anyone like fuck with you guys
and get on the other side of those two hatches
and start banging them together?
No, no.
That would have sucked it,
because I think you could lock it from the inside
or outside.
And so if someone had closed it and locked us,
we would have been scared.
It's clearly beginning with a horror movie.
We did, my grandpa had a storm shelter
because he was in Oklahoma and that's like right
in the tornado valley, whatever.
And the tornado valley, tornado belts, what do they call it?
The tornado alley.
The tornado alley.
Fuck.
Um, but yeah, I'd like a tornado pass
when I was visiting them once and we were like all
down there and it passed like, like a kilometer away
from his house and we're all just down there and it's like,
it's pretty spooky.
Yeah.
I would be unnerved by a tornado.
Because I feel like you don't have very much time
to get ready for them.
And like you said, we don't have like a tornado
shelter in here.
Like, I don't know where I'd go or what I'd do.
I've thought about it.
Like, my house doesn't have a lot of interior rooms.
Basically, everything is against the outside wall,
except one tiny little half bathroom.
So bathtubs too.
Yeah, but this is a half bath.
And like all my showers have windows, like pretty big windows.
Yeah, master bathrooms usually have windows in there.
I'm the same way as you.
I've got one half bath that I could go to and then on their memorial day, a storm two years ago,
that's I had to go in there.
I just I'm just getting my dryer.
Take.
Yeah, I mean, that's the scary thing about the people staying in their houses.
Like, there was a tornado warning at my mom's house and then they had some wind damage.
You say tornado, everybody imagines, you know, Wizard of Oz, but it was what you would call a slight tornado.
A slight tornado?
I don't it's it's like I I don't know where the right word is.
It's not, you know, it's not cows like spinning up in the air.
Sure.
But just like a mile away, you know,
and it doesn't take much, you know,
to damage your house or.
Did you see that tornado that formed
around Cyprus, Texas, the wake of the hurricane?
I saw a picture of it.
It was taken out on the horizon and it like filled the wake of the hurricane. I saw a picture of it, it was taken out on the horizon,
and it filled the frame of the photo.
It was enormous.
It was like, God, not only hurricanes, not only flooding.
tornadoes.
tornadoes too.
So let's just throw an earthquake in there.
Just get them all out of the way.
Turnips are fucked,
because when I was in high school,
I used to do journalism,
and we went and covered a tornado that had happened,
I think, on the border of Oklahoma and Texas,
and man,
it just decimated this lady's house.
You're just fucking gone.
That is nature so scary.
It's like the foundation.
Yeah.
It was just like ripped,
but then she was walking around.
She's like, oh, I found my China.
You know, just weird shit like that
where it's like, you can't predict it.
You ever see a video, maybe a couple of years ago,
might have been when the tornadoes were at Joplin,
Missouri, there's a news crew filming a family outside
of their house and it was like you described,
like the house is leveled and they're like upset
and they're looking at all this stuff
and then all of a sudden their cat walks up.
I think it was a dog.
It was like an old lady in her dog.
Another one I saw was cat.
They're like the cat's been missing since the tornado,
like for four days.
It is like walks up like nothing happened.
It's a typical cat.
I've seen the one with the dog where it's like a really dramatic reuniting. Yeah, they pick up a piece of debris and the dogs just, they is like walks up like nothing happened I've seen the one with the dog where is like a really dramatic reuniting. Yeah
Yeah, like they pick up a piece of debris and the dogs just they're like, hey
Oh, did you see the photo of the dog in one of the it was like a small
South Texas town he got out of his yard and he was just running through the street and he had his bag of food and
So awesome, apparently he made it back to his family. So he's awesome.
Yeah, but it's like, it's like total homework bound stuff.
Yeah, so I got it.
He was prepping, like you said.
He's like, yeah, I don't know if I'm going to need this.
Yeah, probably soon.
I was just changing, gotta go.
I would love to be in the local newsrooms
when they talk about how there's
in, you know, some kind of bad weather coming.
And the awkwardness when everybody is wondering
what poor reporter is gonna get sent out
into the middle of that cyclone.
Because like, they're always like so close.
They all say five four.
But five four, Patrick.
I was gonna say, I feel like I would want to do that.
That's not a pretty bad ass.
Patrick, Patrick, he, for those of you don't know,
he worked in local news, local broadcast news
for, you know, a good amount of time.
So they're always, I guess, because they, a good amount of time. So they're
always, I guess because they'll get the attention. And is it because they can get on national
news?
Yeah, national and that being on national, it's good on the resume.
That's yeah.
Yeah. I would fight to go do it. Okay. The next natural disaster were sending blank.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I thought was kind of fun about this was this was the first
like enormous phenomenon where we had a lot of live streaming services available
So I was following along with all this on pariscope and like this guy's broadcast went down and he never came back for the night
I was like, what happened is he dead, but he didn't I don't think he died. I haven't checked
But it was just kind of cool to see it happening in real time. Yeah, you know, it's another interesting aspect of
I don't what do you call it if you're like
stocking up on stuff in preparation for?
Doomsday prep, premping prep.
Making, like, getting all of the USB chargers that you can find, making sure they're charged,
and even like, you know, with those like big batteries that we can plug stuff into, just
because I mean, if you lose your phone, you lose your access to all of the information
of what's going on around.
I imagine that's supposed to be so much scarier.
So on this table, we just stacked our little USB power things.
And that's the thing that I read this big thread
and I was like, God, it makes so much fucking sense.
They were like, don't use this hashtag.
Okay, so hashtags are like the greatest in the worst thing ever.
The greatest thing ever because it unites people
if they're looking for one common subject to follow.
They use a hashtag.
But then if there's some dumbass,
it's like, I wonder how things are
with hashtag hurricane Harvey.
Like people are using that hashtag as a new source.
Like people in Houston.
So whenever you're filling that shit up
with like, all prayers for the victims of hurricane Harvey,
you're just adding to that noise
and it's like you're taking away like the
ability to access that useful information in a quick man.
Because like that they don't have TV and their radios, I don't know if they're using
their radio or not, but like they have to use the cell phones in the hashtags.
So when people are filling it up, so basically moral of the story is don't use a hashtag
for prayers and stuff like that.
Like you can say that but just don't hashtag it because you're cluttering up the whole news.
So you saw it by top instead of now.
Yeah, it's rather dumb.
Yeah, I get it.
Yeah, okay.
Maybe we're missing some kind of way to better communicate
and keep people informed.
Like I think right now you just go on Twitter
and find the weather channel, find your local paper,
but you're right.
Like there's, you can clutter stuff up so much,
but if there was an official channel,
it's boring. I'm not bringing this up.
I thought you were leading to something like you were gonna...
No, I, well, what I was just is finding a way, like we have alerts or way have the emergency broadcast system
with radio and television to find an equivalent with phones and cell phones that's not something unofficial.
Like, oh, just go follow this Twitter account.
Like the closest thing we have are those,
those like little alerts that go to your phone.
I think for bad weather and when kids get kidnapped,
I turn those off.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm sorry, babe.
You got to figure out your own problems.
We all got issues.
So, um, I don't know, maybe that's something that they could look into.
To the stories of kind of been doing that, like I was following a story for Hurricane Harvey
and it was curated, like so they would take the best and most relevant tweets and add them.
It was just, you know, probably 25 tweets that encompassed what had happened at that point.
They're keeping it updated and would get notified when there were new things posted to it.
Instead of just following the hashtag? It's a curated hashtag.
Yeah, it's interesting.
I've never used that feature before.
It's pretty cool.
I don't use it as often.
Twitter stories are what moments.
Is that what they're called?
They go mom.
Yeah.
I've only used it a few times, but it's pretty neat.
Oh, it's like, have you, like, when you say, like, when you go to the little search bar on Twitter,
and then you access them there, or are you saying you haven't made your own Twitter moment?
I've made it a couple of Twitter moments,
but you're just still kind of unfamiliar with the whole thing
because I love those things.
Like it has like super relevant information.
Shops, news and so.
I wanna read this thing right here.
Sure.

Uh, look up at the wall.
Okay, I'm looking at right now.
So, I'm, wait, oh my god.
That's syndicated from Cartoon Network.
The Powerpuff Girls,
so we'll grab while okay, go.
Tom and Jerry,
Looney Tunes, Mary Melody, Scooby Doo.
I love Tom and Jerry was like one of my favorite
cartoons growing up.
Now I love, yeah, Tom and Jerry,
and all the old Looney Tunes stuff.
If they had tiny tunes, I would be all over that.
I love tiny tunes.
I love tiny tunes.
I think I feel like I know most of the theme song.
It's like weird how certain things,
like there's a lot about my life.
I don't remember from yesterday,
but there are certain things that you could remember
just from like beginning and end.
I think Lunifer said he will earn our two degree.
Well, thanks.
We're tiny, we're two knee, we're all a little loony,
and in this cartoon, we're invading your TV.
The script's script's never rejected. It's like the unexpected. I think it's that's in there
Oh, yeah, yeah, this is yeah, and then they're like in at acme University. We get our tune degree
Take it away. Guess our teachers have been getting left since 1933
Dude, I watched so much TV when I was a kid
It was just so much like endless. No, the cartoon. Yeah, you're really into that. Okay
Gotta work off that until out of he ate. Yeah. Oh, God. The lunch was really good today. It was really good. Yeah. Those are some
quality. We'll be in. Veeville is a pretty, you know, high-quality restaurant.
If one of the few places you can get puffy tacos in Austin, which is weird.
What's a puffy taco? I know. It's just a just a look of a vagina.
Good. No need. A Maya's has like just a little vagina. Good, not need it.
Amias has like pseudo-puffy tacos that are really good.
Those are my favorite.
I haven't been ever since they moved.
Yeah, it's much better.
Is it like a shell that's crunchy?
It's like pseudo, it's like a puffed up corn tortilla.
Oh, so it's like a pork rind kind of thing.
Yeah, okay.
But not that crispy. Like it says a little gift to itind kind of thing. Yeah, okay, but not that crispy
Like it says a little gift to it. Okay. Oh good. I want to try that. It's good. It's really good
I'm not hungry at all of it like I'm like I could force one of those down where stuff like covered in government cheese
So good government cheese
Some super processed bright orange cheese
So that's how you know it's real cheese. It's bright orange like that
process bright orange cheese. So that's how you know it's real cheese. It's bright orange like that.
So we've been talking about natural disasters and being like super down and shit. You guys hear that North Korea launched another missile in Japan? Apparently like Japan was like get to shelters.
Yeah, just that just happened right before we came. Oh, they're like 30 minutes ago maybe. So yeah,
apparently the missile flew over Japan. I'm like fucking hell. Where did it land?
In the NEC.
Yeah, they were definitely warning inhabitants of that island
to get the filter.
What's the end game?
The end game is, and then they said this as well,
you know, you just have to acknowledge what they say
their goal is to not be fucked with.
I think the regime looks to other regimes elsewhere that have been removed and toppled because
they didn't have nuclear weapons and nuclear power.
So the idea is that by showing they do have nuclear weapons, by showing they have missiles
that can take things certain places, then we won't fuck with them.
The problem is the more they do it,
the more antagonized we get.
It's really easy for it to be slippery slope.
You don't know when to stop.
And I think the moment that everybody is worrying about
is when it becomes clear that they can strike Los Angeles.
Yeah.
That's when you could see a lot of movement.
But you would have to move before that.
You don't wait until they can hit you.
Well, I think like when they feel like they're close or when they feel like
we're already pretty much there.
I don't think like I don't think they believe they don't know if they have like the
news working and they don't they know they don't have the
guidance.
Yeah, do it.
Do it.
They've been doing a bunch of,
there's been a bunch of peak and seismic activity though,
which implies that they've had blasts.
They just might be doing the underground or something.
We'd be able to detect like a nuclear blast.
Yeah, like we could detect that from space.
Like I guarantee you, there's like a thousand satellites
and then I'm sure the CIA has a decent amount of spies as well.
I mean, there was speculation that we had spies within their program sabotaging. So I think it's everyone
trying to do their best to slow things down before it gets to that point. But I mean, it's
interesting because with the hurricane, you have all this news that kind of gets covered.
It was something interesting that Tillerson said, who's I've been pleasantly surprised with, honestly,
since he got the job,
he has been trying to talk to North Korea
and previously and say,
we're not trying to remove you from power.
We need a chill.
And just the other day said that the president
of the United States does not speak
for presidential and foreign policy.
What does that mean?
Because I mean, when he makes statements about we're going to blow you off of the face of
the planet, it understandably impagodizes the North Korean regime.
You can't take his words literally.
But he's the guy that's the president.
Yeah.
So it's like that is such a mixed message.
Yeah, it's like we're getting close to our constitutional monarchy to where we have
a leader that doesn't actually have any power
But he does but he does yeah, yeah, and traditionally, I mean presidents do dictate foreign policy
So that's a really weird. That's really where they have all of their control right?
They don't presidents can't really do much in domestic policy. I'm pretty relatively speaking. They said that though
Don't worry about him. Yeah, I mean, but how can you not? I mean, John Oliver did a really great
segment a couple of weeks ago in North Korea. And I won't keep talking and
blabbing, but general message was that there's so many funny things to
isolate about him that make really great headlines and clickbait. But he's not
dumb. What they're doing is really bad to their own people and what
they're doing and stocking up on their weapons and putting out to the world is bad. The more
we joke about him, the more we turn him into a cartoon and don't take him seriously.
Because what he's doing is logical. Like the steps he's taking are logical. And if you
don't take your enemies seriously,
you're never gonna be able to deal with them.
You're never gonna be able to face them.
So, and I mean, this issue, it's not Trump's fault.
It's not necessarily Obama's fault.
It's not necessarily George W's fault.
This is something that's been getting to this point
for years.
I mean, it's like Truman's fault, man.
It's like over a 50 year old issue that's still getting to this point for years. I mean, it's like Truman's fault, man. It's like a, like over a 50 year old issue
that's still going on.
Yeah, I mean, my grandfather was in the Navy
and he was in the Korean War.
And it's bad.
Like we called the Korean War,
but it was the Chinese American War.
That war was the United States going to war against China
and there were North Koreans who fought.
It was for the most part part largely Chinese with Russian backing.
Like it's bad. It was really bad. And we know that going back to that just can't work. It can't be
sustained. So then what do you do? And nobody has a good answer for that. And it's not because they're dumb.
It's also, I mean, the other problem you're dealing with here is the countries are in such close
proximity that like, Seoul is within artillery range of North Korea and
Who was it was it tillerson who said that?
There's no way we would attack until you figure out how you don't keep 10 million people from dying in the first 30 minutes. Yeah
Yeah, I mean less less than 30 minutes, you know, ten minute. I mean just
people think about missiles and
Nuclear weapons just shelling
Shelling just a major, just metropolitan center.
She has a major, just metropolitan center.
You know, and I don't know, that's tough.
And granted, everything we're saying,
there's a thousand different ways to look at it,
not trying to call ourselves experts.
I'm sure a lot of you might disagree.
You know, people disagree with stuff.
This is complicated.
You just have to hope.
No, there's no right or wrong answer here.
You just have to hope that cooler heads prevail.
I mean, also, like what you said is the case, right?
Like they have nuclear weapons,
North Korea has nuclear weapons,
and they, well, they don't use them,
but they test them,
and they use their missiles to show that they have power
so that other people don't go in and invade them.
They have no incentive to provoke the fight,
because if they provoke the fight,
they lose their seat of power. They just have to show that deterrent to keep people away.
I mean, they're banking on this idea and again, I could be completely wrong, but I believe
after World War II, Truman, a lot of the administration wanted to scale down the military, but with
the idea that we have an air force and we could drop nukes on people.
And there was a report that said, look, we can't. Like, there's no bright line for when you can drop a nuk,
and have it morally be accepted by the rest of the world
when we're outside of this big world conflict.
And that's why we haven't seen a new drop
because it was the phrase a zero sum game.
There's no winner.
There's no winner there.
And I think he knows that.
Like, he knows that they can't drop a nke on him. And we don't really need to because of all the other, you know,
abilities we have, but it's, it's bad. Like the only time we, we've obviously
only dropped two nukes on, on people, but those were atomic weapons. Those were,
it's like a single blast. We have, um, hydrogen bombs now, thermal nuclear
bombs that areonuclear bombs
that are basically two bombs and one
that can destroy so much more like this is there's no winner with with nuclear
weapons i say thanks to uh... at the small zero zero one on twitter who
correct him is actually steve batting who said there's no option that doesn't
kill ten million people in soul yeah not tellers and
right yeah and sorry i know a lot of people disagree i'm sure i'm
wrong a lot of stuff disagree. I'm sure I'm wrong about a lot of stuff.
There's...
No, just be confident.
Even if you're wrong, just be confident.
I think the big point that everybody needs to understand is there's no right or wrong answer.
You can be right about something.
You can be wrong about something else.
Things are so complicated where you have to accept that there could be one small thing
or one small thing you're wrong about and that's okay.
Your position is still good.
We can't just come under this idea
that if someone disagrees about one small thing,
then we, they're wrong and we're right
and we have to defend ourselves
because there's not enough crosstalk right now
within both sides.
And that's what's inevitably gonna push us,
I'll stop talking.
So all you North Korean viewers out there, please,
Chairman.
So I read an interesting article a few days ago about how North Korea probably
learned from Libya never to give up their nuclear weapons.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because Libya had a nuclear program and stopped it.
And then ultimately the government destabilized and Kudafi got murdered by rebels.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I remember there's a few examples they went to.
I guess Iraq's complicated because a few examples they went to I guess a rack's complicated because
Some people thought they had
They had it, but I mean it's his point makes sense and I would go watch that John Oliver episode and it might be on YouTube
Yeah, they usually run through it he runs through it pretty
Pretty thoroughly someone on Twitter
Politics I really don't think there's a political discussion at all.
Yeah, I mean, we're not talking about abortion policy here. Yeah, or even the fucking wall.
You know, this is this is something
Speaking of the wall, we are all in the same page here when it comes to war
Don't want it. No war. No nuclear weapons. We can't talk about Game of Thrones. Yeah, just a little bit.
Oh, no, it's finale.
I'm not being on spoiler.
I thought about doing something funny for this podcast.
I was going to suggest to broadcast.
We're not going to do this.
I was going to suggest that we have a lower third that says spoiler that covered when we're
talking Game of Thrones spoilers.
And then we put that graphic up.
And then we don't talk about spoilers.
We just try to mimic weird things
so people who put it on mute wonder what the fuck we're talking about.
Like sucking a giant dick.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You can just have anything like that.
Look funny pantomime.
That's a gigantic thing.
Oh my god, that's made me nauseous.
I think overall the season was fun,
but I feel like they kind of lost their balls a little bit.
Really?
Yeah, I think the show got a little neutered, a little fan service scene.
Well, well, I was definitely fan service.
I'll give you that.
There was a little too much dialogue that was like wink or like, and cute stuff.
Well, I read an interesting article about how they rushed too many of the reunions this
season.
Like they're trying to cram in all these storylines.
They have to close out.
Six episodes left now.
Yeah.
I'm guessing the key was they knew where they had to be on
Episode one of the last season that was an under negotiation
So it was just how did they get to that point? That's why you saw
People complained about anything was that big a deal. They would cross. No, it's not okay
They would cross huge amounts of land very quickly. Oh, yeah
I don't need to see them going down the Kings Road
for two episodes.
Yeah.
They were definitely, I commented on that
in a few episodes.
They're like, what the hell?
Well, like in season two, which is a one,
Arya spins like half the season on the Kings Road
on the entire season on the Kings Road.
It's just like, oh, I get it.
So I don't know.
I mean, it's an issue of,
you think they should have just kept with a tin,
a tin episode season.
Well, let's save all the gamers
and let's talk for another time.
All right.
Wait, so, okay, so then in the meantime,
is now that that's gone,
and I feel like Westworld,
they haven't even, are they announced
when that's coming out?
They released a trailer.
Have you seen?
I saw the trailer.
Just fucking dope trailer.
They were so fast to crank that out too.
They probably only shot shots of the trailer.
Seriously, like they released a trailer
after they've been filming for like a week.
Maybe it was something insanely.
It's happy because the hymnsworth brothers back.
Like he saw him in the trailer and was like,
so I need, so I need, apparently he's,
was he the military guy?
Yeah.
He's a really big character,
like they promoted him to like,
I feel like he's gonna be like,
he's gonna be like a replicant.
Or is he?
A replicant.
I, you're getting your sci-fi cross.
Yeah, I enjoy that guy.
But then they also had Dolores riding that cow,
like the horse, just like so hot.
She's like,
ah!
Jesus, blame.
She's so cool.
Can we get that again, but in slower motion?
Let's see it.
Ah!
See, that's the kind of pantomime I want during this fourth thing.
Up here, just like, I'm super excited about that.
But yeah, I don't know, I guess stranger things is going to eventually come out.
I hate that I've become the very thing I did not want to become, which is someone that
just lives from TV show to TV show.
But like-
Like this lump between, there's a rare four week window in my life
where I have nothing to watch.
I just don't like media governing my level of enjoyment
of life, you know, or it's like,
I guess I gotta wait until next season.
And I was like, mm.
But there was almost like too much,
it sounds like a terrible problem to have,
but I there's there are a few things that I watch.
And I felt like a lot of it was on Sunday.
Oh yeah, I'm really behind on 20 things that I watch and I felt like a lot of it was on Sunday. Oh, yeah
I'm really behind on 20x I'm I'm two
Three weeks behind any one of last night's freaking Morty, but that's I did it was pretty good. Yeah
Pretty good. Why do you say like that? Are you one of the season three haters? No, no, no
I thought there's one episode I didn't like from season three like the mad
I was like no, I love
That was a season opener, wasn't it? No, no, it was the one that they played on April Fools' Day.
Which was a fucking finale.
The show needed a great episode.
So they didn't air that in the regular season?
Yeah, they didn't.
I still haven't seen it.
I thought that was the one that I'm...
Yeah.
Is it okay?
The one in the first episode was the best.
Did you do the SEAL Team Ricks? Is that Ring of Bell?
Okay, you haven't seen it. It's so fucking good. It's so good. Yeah, it revolves the store. The one with the the session on sauce
You haven't seen that one. Yeah, no, I haven't seen it. Oh
When it was like on that loop on April fullstay
I was like I just need to I want to watch it normally and then I never did both on their website
Yeah, I think it's one of their best episodes. I feel like yeah, it's really strong. I thought pickle Rick was great
But yeah, I think people are just like really shitting on it this year no no no
there's been a lot of good episodes the last week was the uh where he was uh
Rick and Rick and Jerry yeah adventure yeah I haven't seen that one yet that's
where I need to catch and then the one yesterday was really fucking good
god sweet yeah I like the week before where Rick was the super villain.
And they go so far.
And I don't know if people feel like they crossed a line
of how ridiculously powerful Rick is.
Like while he's drunk, he puts all of the things in the dude.
It was like bond villain stuff together.
I'm totally okay with that.
He was like the chosen one that Rick was all proud of him
and turned out to be the little.
Love no dude or whatever. Yeah. I love that it. I really like it. I really like it. I really like it. I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it.
I really like it. I really like it. I really like it those things you worry about being like what does it do X Machina? Days.
Days X Machina.
Do X Machina.
Where you can resolve any, you can resolve any problem in the plot by Rick just throw
something together.
Yeah, so I mean, I guess it just depends.
But I think it's a great season.
I think it's really fun.
That's a show that I watch and I like, there's no stakes and that's fine.
Like it's just like, I don't need like, oh, it's working to die this episode.
Like, you know, they don't need to do that.
But they still do have like that overarching story.
Like Jerry and Beth still are like separated living separately.
And like they're continuing some of that.
So which is weird to me that there is like this backdrop.
Yeah.
I just like whenever Jerry's out alone
and the wind blows.
I'm sorry.
Ah, yeah, that up is the show's fantastic.
If anybody isn't watching, I'd highly recommend it.
It's really, really funny.
I need to go back and watch the old episodes
because I binge watched them while I was on maternity leave.
And I just like, it's like a black hole of my life.
I was getting zero sleep and my short-term memory was blocked. I'm sure the show's better like that. Yeah, I mean, it was pretty, I was like maternity leave and I just like, it's like a black hole of my life. I was getting zero sleep and my short-term memory was.
I'm sure the show's better like that.
Yeah, I mean, it was pretty,
I was like basically stoned.
So yeah, it was very entertaining,
but I don't remember so much of the storyline.
And it is, you know, it kind of factors in,
but yeah, worth a lot.
No, I envy you.
Like, there's so many times I wish I could forget shows
just so I can go back and watch them for the first time.
Yeah. Yeah, I'm trying to say, but okay, so is Stranger Things coming out in October? Like there's so many times I wish I could forget shows just so I can go back and watch them for the first time Yeah
But okay, so but is stranger things coming out in October? I think it's October
I'm so fucking stoked for that. Yeah, that that fucking trailer. They put out a comic college so good
Oh my god, and that was like the perfect use of thriller
So good. I was trying to find that remix version of that song because like it's like it's slightly altered
Yeah, they're doing like the Vincent Price voiceover part.
Yeah, which is dope.
And then they like, I think they like bumped up
some of them, I don't know,
it just sounded like a more dance-y version.
Nah, it was good.
Yeah, it was fucking great.
And also, I'm really excited about that other Netflix show
that's come out later this year, Bright.
I haven't heard anything about that.
That's a movie.
Yeah, it's a Netflix movie, sorry. Do you know what Shatterrun is? It's like a D&D type
game? Okay. Well, Bright looks like a Shatterrun movie. It's like cops in LA,
but there's also Orcs and Elves and Magic. That's awesome. So it's like modern
technology plus magic plus like D&D kind of races and dealing with like,
how does everyone get along?
And I think it came with, it wasn't overwatch.
What was that game called?
Were you play a super cop in the future?
And there's like, it was like one of the first games
that really touted a destructible building down.
Crackdown.
So I think with crackdown, you got a free demo
or it might have been reverse of Shadowrun,
the, did you ever reverse of Shadowrun.
Did you ever play the Shadowrun video game on Xbox? Yeah, that's only when 800 magic.
Yeah, we did series in it.
Yeah, oh, okay, yeah.
Way to go playing.
Well, no, that was like, I don't know, fucking care.
That was like, I got a job here anyways, I'm fine.
I feel like that was like pre-overwatch.
I love the shit out of that game and I feel like it just...
Yeah, it was online only. I mean, it was a $60 full retail game that you had to play via Xbox live
But I mean that what a great precursor like I feel like it's just so ahead of its time because like now you have
Nothing but those types of games what destructible oh
No, so it was the shadow running. It was just basically like it was it was like over watch
You had different classes. They were all like a miss school crazy, like different unique.
And I don't know why, but I like remember
having really fun memories of that game.
And I think they like it flopped.
Yeah, it was fun.
I think that there wasn't enough map variety.
There weren't enough classes.
Like it was it was a little limited.
I just the demo was badass.
Well, do you think the movie,
so there's orcs,ves and just other humans?
Do you think it's gonna be like a really kind of obvious allegory to what's going on in the United States?
I mean, they very clearly call out that will have you seen the trailer?
No, like Will Smith's partner is the first Orc police officer ever
And they're dealing with like racial prejudices between like all the different all three races like there's an Orcs
Life matter campaign. I don't know about that
I wouldn't go that far, but like yeah, everyone's like giving him shit because he's paired up with an orc and like I mean
It's not I don't think it's allegorical at all. I think they're very in your face very direct about it
Yeah, like the elves are like the 1% like the super elite humans are in the middle and orcs are like
The very bottom. So it's Will Smith and then the guy that plays the middle and the orcs are like in the very bottom.
So it's Will Smith and then the guy that plays the orc,
the fuck's his name, who's in that?
The dude right here.
Yeah, that guy.
Yeah, what is his name?
I couldn't tell you who that is.
Joel Edgarton, yeah.
I did not recognize that that was Joel Edgarton.
He's like one of my favorite actors.
What's he, and that name doesn't, right?
He was, most recently, he was in that really dope horror movie.
It comes at night, but he's like he's Tom Hardy's brother and warrior
The the guy that the fighting movie. She's a really good movie. He's
Shit what else did you like your tenon? Oh, I am DB. I'm like was that the orc the guy who kind of had a bunch of just scales on his face
Okay, that looks way more normal than I was thinking. I was thinking like Shrek,
like some guy having a wear,
like a giant thing on his face.
Like Warf had a wear for Black Mass.
Thank you.
Yes, it is.
Excellent.
I haven't seen any of these.
I mean, I especially was a fucking devil.
Great Gatsby, yeah.
Is there a Dark Thirty?
Oh, yeah.
He was a Buchanan or whatever.
Ligit for the Guardians, I thought that was Guardians
of the Galaxy.
And the unfortunate, the thing reboot.
I think I should watch that again.
Did you see Guardians of the Galaxy, the second one?
Yeah.
Did you like it?
It was okay.
Really?
I thought the first one was a lot better.
Oh, that's crazy.
I thought it was amazing.
I thought there were like, on this one, they were like,
last time we let James Gunn have some fun, you know, and we kind of kept him under wraps, but like, you know, let him do his thing. And then this time they were like Last time we let James Gunn have some fun, you know, we kind of kept them under wraps
But like we you know, let him do his thing and then this time they're like let's just go full out James Gunn
And it was just like too much. Yeah, I mean it was fine
I didn't like dislike it or anything. I just thought the first one was better. Yeah, I don't know
I guess I thought it was like the best bad guy that I've seen in a Marvel movie
Yeah, and I guess like I'm it's I feel like if you the better bad guy you have
You know the better more engaging story is gonna be and I'm a sucker like I'm a
Two emotional and sensitive so like at the end of it when in the funeral is like oh my god
Well, I don't I'm like okay, so I love Marvel movies and like I went and specified a man like the Captain America movies
I think you're like pretty much damn your perfect who's the best bad guy
That's the thing and I I was always getting to,
is like I feel like the bad guys in the Marvel universe
are all kind of lame,
and I feel like I'm getting bored of the movies overall
because like there's no stakes.
It's more about their struggle
and less about who they're fighting.
Well, it's just like the next one
that I'm excited for is like,
it's I guess because it's Thanos,
I'm pretty sure people are gonna die,
and like I don't give a shit unless I'm gonna walk
or if that would be like, a character has died.
Otherwise, you're talking like Infinity War.
You're talking like Infinity War.
Yeah, like, people are gonna get killed in Infinity War.
And I'm totally fine with that.
Like, I feel like they need to have more stakes
because right now it's like, you go into it
and it's like, oh, there's some of the world scenario.
Even in Civil War, like always one.
Rode is in that awful situation.
Like, oh, I mean, he's hurt, but like,
he has to live, right?
Like, you know that like, he's gonna,
they're gonna, he's gonna recover.
Yeah, I think if they've already seen,
I've seen like concept art of him
in the war machine outfit again.
So it's like, he's fine.
It's just like they don't kill people off.
I just want, same thing with Game of Thrones.
I just want them to have the balls to kill somebody.
Aren't there some storylines where Tony Stark
can't walk outside of the suit?
I think he's talking about the movies though.
No, I'm trying to say like they could do the same thing except with war machine, right?
Like, is it?
But he was already walking at the end of Civil War.
I mean, yeah. He was learning how to walk there.
Yeah, he's fine.
Yeah, I guess like with Civil War, if Iron Man and Captain America were more adversarial,
kind of like how they were at that end fight,
but earlier, I'd feel a little bit better about it
because the movie still didn't feel like it had an antagonist.
And the protagonist didn't feel like they became antagonist.
Like, uh,
uh,
did you guys like the second season of Walking Dead?
No.
Second season.
That's the way I kept watching it where it's just like,
oh, well, some other shit happened. Now we gotta go find this person. Oh, see, yeah, I was after watching it where it's just like, oh, well some other shit happened
I was in the farm. Oh, yeah, there was no bad guys. No, no, Shane became like you had a main character who was a friend like a really good friend
right then and Shane
Became the bad guy he and Rick became complete antagonist to one another and I thought it worked
Yeah, but I guess that civil war. I just still felt like I just don't know who the
Maybe maybe I'm too simple that I need a bad guy. I like civil war a lot. I that civil war I just still felt like I just don't know who the
Maybe maybe I'm too simple that I need a bad guy. I like civil war a lot. I thought civil war is probably the same the best one that they've done so far Ruse I agree with that. Yeah, I would like I mean I saw
Coming and I was just kind of like this is fun. It's okay fun my key was good
You give a lot of work with with culture
But I thought it was good to Michael Keynes. He could do anything. He's't give him a lot of work with, with, Vulture, but I thought it was good.
To Michael Keens.
He could do anything.
He's the bomb of him.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's crazy.
He just like, doesn't do anything for a while
and does one like really crazy movie.
And then now he's like such hot shit.
There was a bit where I think like,
Kimmel or somebody was like, yes,
Spider-Man's like my favorite.
And he was like, the fuck, and then he's like,
oh, sorry, I know you're like the hawk, vulture guy,
but he's like, no, a fucking Batman.
And he's like, actually, like, he's gonna leave the show.
Birdman and Batman.
He's so cool.
I haven't beat all these guys.
Yeah, he's the best, my favorite movie.

Patrick just sent me a link. I guess that new it movie is getting really good early reviews.
I've had to tell Alana to refer to it as Stephen King's It or It The Movie because she'll be like,
it's getting great reviews and be like what are you talking about she like it?
Okay, who's on first? I'm super fucking excited for that movie
Yeah, one one thing I can't tell if you guys better sense forward if you've heard anything about it
The thing I liked about the TV movie was that the clamp Pennywise was like psychologically terrifying
It's almost like if we're doing this podcast and Blaine you see him here
And he's fucking with you
and yelling at you and none of us see him.
You know, you bust like, you know, a balloon full of blood,
you know, gets everywhere.
Is this movie, he's just kind of scarier,
like he just kind of pops in and is like, you know,
I think like a more, I don't know, traditional.
I feel like they might be setting up like a,
like a series or something because it seems like
from what I've seen,
they only have Kim falling the kids,
which is part of the story
because he follows them as children
and then is like young adults
and then as adults or something.
Yeah, it's a pretty long book.
Right.
Like the first part of it is.
So I feel like kids.
The movie seems focused just on the kids.
Yeah, like it's a period piece.
So I think it's just gonna be like.
Yeah, unless they're intentionally just showing a very small portion of the movie, the, like it's a period piece. So I think it's just gonna be like, yeah. Unless they're intentionally just showing a very small
portion of the movie, the trailer.
It's like, he looks great.
Right.
That'd be awesome.
I do be all down for that.
So I think they're gonna cover the kid
with game bang or not.
Oh God, I forgot about that.
Yeah.
Probably not.
What is it?
I can't forget, I forget the name of the female character.
She thought like a better way for them to calm down
is if they were to share some kind of experience together
and this is my really, really bad explanation
of her motivations.
She's strong.
And so she has kind of sex with all of them
and it's in the book.
And it's like one of those things that's crazy shit
in books that aren't in the movie.
Like I think the monkey and four scump and when he goes to space and crashes in India
They left that out of the book. Yeah, I haven't heard about that
That's because that was a Paul 13. That was a separate movie four scump
You know, you know that book and movie let the right one in. It was remade as an American movie called them.
Choose the right one or something?
I can't remember what it was called.
I saw the movie and then I read the book.
And there was a scene in the book that was the most gruesome
fucked up thing I've ever read.
I was like, if this had been included in the movie,
it would have been rated X, hands down.
Like it's where this is like this like zombie dick
that keeps coming back to life and it's got us like smushed.
And it has this direction. Here it's like a pedophiles dick.
It's just the most fucked up thing.
Like 15 pages of descriptive dick stuff, but I can't even say it.
Dick stomping.
The stuff's like someone's fetish.
Yeah.
Dick stomping.
Oh, I've seen videos.
No.
Oh.
Who was it?
There was somebody that I was talking to
where they had a friend or knew somebody or something
that people would pay this person that they're friends with
to come in high heels and stomp on their balls and dick
with high heels on with their stilettos.
And that was the easiest work ever.
Right, gold mine.
See each his own man.
But it's like, I don't,
I would pay someone to not do that.
That's so, is that an option?
That's so painful that like, I don't know.
I'm gonna.
What if they just came to your house every day
and you just had to like,
pay him for the go away?
Are we gonna, are we gonna step on your balls today?
No.
No.
Give me a milk money.
That's what I thought.
Yeah, that's just, that's just extortion, right?
Like real nice balls you got there.
We have shame if someone stomped on them.
With high nails.
Yes, like you start kind of resisting
they come the next day and like foot long heels.
Ah.
Ah, oh, geez.
This foot long heels, that's difficult.
Did you all see that I was reading a story earlier today that this past weekend,
this past weekend's box office was the worst one in 15 years.
Really? Is it because of the hurricane?
It's the worst weekend since September 2001.
Whoa. 9-11.
It's like the worst weekend was, it wasn't the weekend right after 9-11,
it was the one after that.
Wow.
I mean, morale's pretty fucking low right now.
Like the top 12 movies this weekend combined
did not break $50 million.
What's in the box office right now?
The top study yard.
Did anything open?
Hitman's bodyguards, Annabelle II and Leap
are the top three.
I've even heard of any of those.
Oh, Windrivers IV, Logan Lucky, Duncirk.
I mean, I mean,
I'm Duncirk's been there a while.
I mean, Hitman's bodyguard, according to my mom,
who's like a great film critic,
such a huge, great, she loved it.
Do we know what opened last week?
Last week would have been the,
I mean, this past weekend?
Yes.
The only new movies I see on here are Leap,
Birth of the Dragon,
oh, and the Mayweather McGregor fight is on here
Oh, yeah, I was like a red letter day for um, fathom. Yeah, I really enjoyed it. I was $2.6 million. Did you watch it? Yeah, it's good
Well, I think I think it's possible Maryweather kind of carried Maryweather
Mer-Floating, Mer-Weth, and Mayweather
It gets McDonald's
Yeah, he might have carried him because I think
A lot of people were more happy with the last fight
What he did that it just wasn't good before he retired many I think many Pac-Yo
So I think he carried
A little bit longer than
That's the one that was like five minutes long. I don't remember that is it
That's that's that's cool to me where it's like you just gets in the range of beats you guys ask and no time. If you pay $100 for it
You guys watch that fight. Yeah, it is good. Yeah
No, I split it with a friend. I went to a sports bar and I was like can't you guys show in the fight?
They're like no, I'm like what I'm like no, we don't show the fight. I'm like your sports bar and I was like, you guys show them the fight. They're like, no, I'm like, what? I'm like, no, we don't show the fight.
I'm like, you're a sports bar.
Yeah.
Why do you exist?
It's the transmission fee, the retransmission fee
that they have to pay.
Well, they have to charge, I mean,
I wouldn't have to pay $100.
They can't charge people if they're showing it.
They can, but then they have to pay a licensing fee
for that and the licensing fee is a lot of money.
So they have to make sure that they're going to meet
a certain number of people,
charging them a certain price and all that
they're gonna need to money back.
I watched some Irish dudes commentating on it live on YouTube.
I didn't see any of the fight.
Just watching these guys and updating Twitter every now and then
between that and going and playing Rainbow Six Siege.
I'm so glad I didn't spend what, what was 100 bucks?
Fuck that.
I don't know, music good.
That is entertaining. Yeah, I did not want to give anymore money to Florida, didn't spend what it was a hundred bucks. Fuck that. I don't know. It was good.
I was entertaining.
Yeah, I did not want to give any more money to Florida, my weather.
So I mean, I was curious about the fight, but I did not.
I did not purchase it.
Well, I think he's guaranteed a hundred million, but he's, they say he's going to make
more because he gets a percentage.
They think he got 250 last time and they think it's going to be more than that.
See, and that's why, and like, if you into it, like whatever, if you're hobby fighting, that's great.
But like, I didn't wanna support it
because they've been doing some gross shit
to promote the fight.
Like building up all the hype.
Well like McDonald started, you know,
bringing back Mary Weathers, you know, wife beating incident
or like they started getting like into,
he started like using that
as like, his like rallying crides.
Like, oh, this guy, you know, just like bringing attention
to his domestic abuse stuff.
Oh, I have no idea.
That's fucked up.
I mean, they're both pieces of shit.
Yeah.
The record talks a lot of shit.
Mayway, there's a piece of shit.
Well, like, apparently, Maryweather,
we're going to get on the wrong name,
because I'm going to fuck.
Because it's just going to drive the boxing fans
insane, and then they're going to box me. Marywe way, because I'm gonna fuck. Because it's just gonna drive the boxing fans insane. And then they're gonna box me.
Uh, Maryweather, uh, he-
He was a million dollars.
He was his girlfriend because he thought she was with some NBA player.
So then McDonald's wore that NBA player's jersey and just started talking it up.
And it's like, no one's thinking about the girlfriend that got beaten in the situation.
It's like, what does she think about this?
And then, you know, they use like racism and stuff
like that.
It's gross.
Yeah, that's fucked up.
I didn't, I guess I didn't been paying attention.
I knew they were talking shit, which is normal,
but I had no idea it was something like that.
Like Mike Tyson, at least he just talked about eating children
and biting ears and biting ears.
Didn't Mike Tyson beat some women too?
Yeah, he did.
But I don't think he ever like bragged about it
or brought it on the table. He did it. He just said, he was in a braggart about it. What I'm saying?
Be like correct yourself. Exploiting that, exploiting that to promote the fight.
I'm not saying. He's not found guilty for bragging. He was, I think he was convicted of rape.
I believe. Oh, that's what it was. Yeah. Throwing in jail. That's not great. Yeah.
That's not great. So what about boxers? There's George Foreman, the only like wholesome
family man in foam-ershield boxer. Wellman, the only like wholesome family man, infomercial boxer.
Well, I mean, Linux Lewis.
Well, how would all of you use like a piece of shit
because he like, you know, was like,
you're talking shit all this time,
but I don't think he was a bad dude.
No, that's part of boxing.
Everybody does that.
Yeah, he's just, that's how you get people
to watch the fight.
But like McDonald's was actually being a outbreak.
Sure, no, that makes sense.
With what you're saying.
Yeah.
Did you see the picture of McGregor's son of he's like this little baby a little suit you look at all tie and
everything that suit was nicer than any suit I will ever own in my life very cute very cute I saw
a on the front page of Reddit someone posted said McGregor versus Mayweather and was a picture of
you and McGregor in the rain it It was, yeah, it was really good.
People in the internet are funny.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's a little baby.
Look at that guy.
So it was like, it looks like he's gonna break his dad's knees in the fourth
month of throat or something like that.
People on Twitter love your Maryweather versus McDonald's.
Comments there.
They're really into it.
I can, I can, like, people that like boxing are really into boxing, so for them to be listening
to this or showing their hair out.
I think you have C2, people really.
Yeah, because I think they have like a complex about not being taken seriously compared
to boxing.
Well, that was kind of what this whole fight was.
Well, and it served that purpose, like a legitimized UFC, I think, because I mean, you know,
maybe Maryweather did kind of like, stretch the whole I think, cause I mean, you know, maybe Maryweather
did kind of like stretch the whole thing out
to make it more of a show,
but like he held, you know McDonald's hold on for a long time.
Yeah, no, he showed heart.
I think he looked good even though he lost.
Yeah, like more than he had the right to be like
for his first professional match against like
one of the greatest boxers probably ever.
They're just so small.
Like it's far enough.
What? They're small. Oh, Like it's far enough. What?
They're small?
Oh, they're like like, they're like,
I don't know if they're like bruiser weights,
but they're like small middle weights.
It's like 149 and 154 pounds.
Yeah, apparently like they can gain like 15 pounds of weight
after the weigh-in, but still, like you imagine,
you know, when you think of big boxing match,
like heavy weights, like Tyson, Foreman, you know, at least it was a little smaller,
but still these guys are just a little bit more compact.
Yeah, they'd still kick my ass in an instant.
McDonald's would just like make quick work of me,
but still.
With the diarrhea?
Yeah.
There's someone who joined Twitter just two years ago,
they have one tweet, they just made it good. It's over too many opinions about me
whether is a McGregor of people who have no clue about fighting triceisans for a change. So shut up. I agree with that. I suppose they don't like us
Commentating on the Maryweather McDonald's fight. I guess not. Maybe maybe they're more of a Burger King fan. Okay, for a little bit we talk a lot about stuff that we don't have expertly researched.
Okay, everything should be talked about.
I've just been feeding off shit comments lately.
I don't know what it is, but it's just like,
I used to, I used to just go home, watch and just jerk off.
Well, I used to get really upset when I first started.
I was just like, I have these people, I don't even know me.
I'm a perfectly nice person and they're just,
they don't even know me. And then like after a while, I was just like, I have these people who don't even know me. I'm a perfectly nice person and they're just, they don't even know me.
And then like after a while, I was just like,
okay, I'm just gonna ignore them.
Whatever they have their opinions, they don't know me.
It's fine, like if they met me in person,
it'd be different.
But now I'm just like, I look, I seek them out
and I'm like, this person's a fucking idiot
and they have no idea what they're talking about.
And I like, I love the hate.
I'm being the heel of Rooster Teeth.
You just come on, I'll leave a asshole for being the heel. I'm not. You just come on, how am I gonna leave an asshole
for being the heel?
I'm not, oh, okay, my own.
Well, I'm not denying I'm an asshole.
Yeah, it's just like people are like,
it's always one or two comments.
Blaine is either way too proud and full of himself,
or Blaine doesn't have enough confidence.
It's like, if I'm one, then they're gonna shit on me
for the other and it's so fucking stupid.
I can't relate to that.
No one's ever said anything mean about me.
It shit on more than anybody.
I don't know what it is, man.
If I like having you on the podcast,
I can't do sex, fuel, machine.
I saw an article today that said that apparently
speaking of online comments that in China,
as of October
1st there will be no more anonymous comments online. That's great. I love it. I fucking love it.
That everyone has to register and you have to have your real identity tied to your account if you
want to make comments on that. That's awesome. Wow. Who is it that does before you can comment on an
article? You have to take a little quiz to test your comprehension of an article. What the article is about.
Yeah.
To make sure you read the whole thing and actually understand.
Is that something?
Yeah.
I forget who it was.
But yeah, it was like, well, some news website.
Mm-hmm.
I want to say it was in Europe somewhere.
Probably.
Say something about YouTube comments, comments on new sites, especially like papers, local
papers.
Those are the worst.
Yeah, I always am like, why did I do this?
Everyone and everything.
Yeah.
It's rough.
I mean, I'm sure reporters are, you know,
it's nothing easy job and it's kind of tough.
Like us, I get it.
Well, it's fucking sucks too, because like,
if you see this happen, you know, yeah, like,
it's us, we get it, Rupert Heath has been around this,
like we're, you know, we're used to the whole internet
community and stuff like that.
But like, uh, the girl that played R.A. and Forcer Wacans, uh, whatever her name was, Daisy Ridley,
like deleted her Instagram because people weren't just shitting on her on her picture comments and stuff like that. And she was actually engaging them because it's like she didn't know because she just,
you know, exploded into fame in a matter of like weeks.
And yeah, she like deleted her Instagram
because she's gonna pay me.
Yeah, the truck.
Leslie Jones had a pretty rough,
her stuff was a pretty bad mouth.
Oh, because she just didn't understand
how the internet works and you feed the trolls,
they get bigger.
Yeah.
Did you guys ever watch or have big old?
Big old.
Yeah, she's a lot older than I thought.
Leslie Jones.
Yeah, she's almost 50.
She's been around. Holy shit. Yeah, I had no idea. She's good lot older than I thought. Almost 50. She's been around.
Holy shit.
I had no idea.
She's good.
Yeah, she's 49.
She turns 50 like in a week and a half.
Bro, no idea.
I thought she was like 30.
Yeah, it was really crazy.

They got rid of that stupid frickin' flap that no one uses
because I never stick my, my pee pee to that.
Mine's flat.
That flap.
Mine doesn't, I don't think.
I don't know.
They had this like diamond pattern.
What do you use?
What do you mean?
What's the olive underwear?
Oh, like the boxer breeze.
The boxer breeze, that's right.
Yeah.
Mine's love a flap.
Mine doesn't have a flap.
I don't know.
Maybe it does, but it's just like shape differently.
I don't know.
I haven't closed the exam exam the last one I had.
I, it's in my laundry. It just got lost.
I guess I can't. But the way that this pattern is more of the story is
being these makes your junk look huge.
Okay. It makes it look huge.
Order me 30.
I'm going to order them all at the same time.
To an extent, Brandon.
Do you all ever dabble in the opening in the front of the underwear?
No.
Because I've seen it like opens here and then opens here.
And you have to like snake your dog
and throw it.
Yeah, it looks very uncomfortable.
It's dangerous.
Like if you like lose your grip,
it's like a guillotine, like snip on your dip.
And then your pee is just going like,
No!
Yeah.
No, I'm not a fan.
And you have to like blame it on the dog.
The dog just came in here and just peed everywhere. I still stand behind dabbing now. Not, I'm not a fan. You have to like blame it on the dog. Oh dogs came in here and just peed everywhere
I still stand behind dabbing though not I'm not even gonna dab
Little tap yeah, yeah, I learned that from venture brothers
Oh, yeah, it's just a show that we both enjoy it was in season one or two. There's like you got a dab
What like no you dab?
So do you only see you use a urinal and then you go into the other
stall and oh no I mean I'll just shake it to death
But like if I'm you know in my own bathroom then I'll reach down and grab a piece of toilet paper. Yeah, shake it to death
I brother used to say shake it don't break it when he was like potty training
Funny um on P on the front of your shorts. So I
Check it out for you. It's funny.
I'll pee on the front of your shorts.
So I mentioned a little earlier about how it was like
the worst box office in 15 years,
since like right after September 11th.
And I meant to bring this up and I forgot.
But did you all see that trailer for that 9-11 movie
with Charlie Sheen, Woopy Goldberg, and Gina Gershon?
Oh my gosh.
What year is it?
I think it's coming out soon, like it's coming soon.
Jesus.
That's awful.
Yeah, it's what people trapped in an elevator.
Is it a common elevator?
No, no, no, it's not a common elevator.
Is it a VHS?
I don't know.
Let me see if I can find it again.
In the World Trade Center.
Yeah, I think the movie's just called 9-11.
I would not want to be trapped in an elevator with Charlie.
9-11 trailer.
Oh, this trailer trailer from a month ago
Come out in July gosh, that's rough man by tickets all right. Let's see so Fandango. So I assume this is a
theatrical how nice god oh it opens up temporary
It has to lord on and they have to do that timing they better hope that it's amazing. Oh, it's
Lord, oh, and they have to do that timing. They better hope that it's amazing. Oh, it's good.
Using Narcos or something. He's in everything with any Latin American things. Based on actual events. Thank you. It's just really still really hard watching that.
Really weird. And it's weird. I think that it's been 16 years since that happened now.
Yeah, it's one of those things.
Everyone can still probably remember where they were in the experience of watching that.
ABC has this really cool special where you can kind of watch their news coverage.
So you see it unfold from the first second and that level of uncertainty.
I don't know, it's really powerful.
Wait, is it like, as it developed like live
because I feel like you're watching their footage,
their anchors, their reporters.
So I'm sure there's a lot of editing in it,
but it's kind of like experience, what it was like
to be and maybe relive it,
like watching that stuff unfold
because there was so much certainty.
It's like if you've watched the Walter Cronkite,
I think, thing of the JFK shooting.
And like talking to Dan Rather and stuff,
like you feel it, you know, it's crazy.
It's a downer podcast.
I know.
I think it's the fucking weather
because I'm about to go to Seattle,
but like I feel like I'm already in Seattle
because the weather's just so great.
I was in Seattle a couple weeks ago,
and I'm in months ago, it was beautiful. It was all sunny. It's great. I like it's got a lot of trees
The weekend of packs the Labor Day weekend is normally pretty sunny and it's it's good weather
Labor Day weekend. Do we have off work for that? Yeah, but Monday fuck why didn't I book my plane?
accordingly stupid ass
Shit I do this every day are you playing back on so many of the first money?
Yes, that's a fucking idiot. It's always for packs
Blame I'm so upset that's that's a day I could have smelled
Change it. Yeah, it's got money. It's worth it
So I said if you if you want something that's not a downer and more of an up thing.
Tell me, Gustav.
I saw this great Japanese prank video, playing truly mad, where this guy is told he has to go meet this woman and go on a date with her,
except, you know, the guys were in a tuxedo, except he's only wearing the front of the tuxedo.
And he has to see how long he can go on this state with this woman without her realizing that he has no-
Is he nude in the back?
It's like you can see his underwear.
Okay.
And it's like, it's all skin and underwear on the back.
So he can't turn his back to her.
But the twist that he doesn't know is that the woman knows
that he has no back, her dress has no back.
And she has to hide the back.
She has no back on her dress from him.
So what's the end game?
The end game is she has to see how long she can go
without revealing.
And he doesn't know that he, that this is going on.
Is it a competition between the two of them?
No, no, it's just a competition for her.
So it's like when they walk in the doors,
none of them can turn the back on each other.
So they're both having to look at each other
and like crap walking side with me.
How is this that same Japanese game show
that they did like the guy didn't talk to his wife
for like several years and they were trying to figure out why. You know, it's the same, is this the same Japanese game show that they did like the guy didn't talk to his wife for like several years and they were trying to figure out why.
You know, is this the same channel?
I don't know.
God, it's not the same program out of thing.
Those guys are fucking amazing.
They do this, there's this, do like investigative journalism on trying to figure out like how
to solve a problem through the most ridiculous comedic ways.
Like there was like this one where a dog always attacked its male owner and they tried to figure out how to fix that.
But I don't know.
Oh, here they have a clip there actually.
Oh my God.
So the two guys got the back and the woman is like,
oh my God.
They cannot turn their backs to each other.
Oh, it's just so great.
And you should absolutely watch this whole video.
How long do they go on for?
The video's not that long.
It's like eight minutes maybe.
Oh my gosh.
Watch it with poor people.
Speaking of pranks.
Did you see that?
Before you say your thing, Patrick sent me something
who is from Twitter, I think CDB03B says,
the triangle flap in underwear is to accommodate
different size junk and to allow for expansion,
not to pee out of.
Oh my God.
It's perfect.
It's holy.
And it makes your junk look huge.
All right, sorry.
Oh my God.
Speaking of pranks.
Did you see that Nathan for you was coming back?
Did you see the trailer?
I haven't seen the trailer yet.
It looks pretty good.
It's coming back in September, right?
I think so.
God, that shows.
Do any of you, do either of you guys watch it?
No.
I've watched like three episodes.
They're fucking crazy. That's show is amazing
Yeah, so this season it looks like it has this really funny storyline of you know that like Bill Gates impersonators
Yeah, like they go into this whole story with him and this woman that he loved that disappeared and they track her down
Like amidst doing all these pranks. It looks looks pretty good. They have this one you should actually watch a show
And this is a show that's right up your alley.
One of the, they're not all elaborate stage things like this, but one of my favorite ones
is he wants to become a magician.
So he wants to become an escape artist.
I'm sorry.
So he wants to learn how to get himself out of stuff, but he says that he wants to have
real stakes.
That he has to have something dangerous in order to escape so that he wants to be locked tied up
And if you can't escape within a certain amount of time
He wants someone to pull his pants down in front of a robot mechanical art
He gets it. He wants someone to pull his pants down in front of children. Oh my god
They're by exposing him and then we have a police officer there that will arrest him for indecent exposure
But he learns that if another person pulls his pants down that person will get in trouble too
So he builds a robotic arm with a timer to pull his pants down.
If you can't get out of this trap in time.
So he has like, all these kids come, he's got a police officer there.
He's got no words to like try to get himself out of it.
Do those kids know what's happening?
Or is it just getting away?
I don't know.
It's amazing.
It's absolutely amazing.
What parents take their kids there?
It's been like two or three years since this last season.
And I really thought he wouldn't come back because it's gotten to the point where people recognize him
and they kind of pick up on his antics, but he kind of fell into this. I think the greatest episode ever
though was from last season. It was the smokers allowed. Oh, was it with a performance art? Yeah. Yeah.
That was amazing. Like you can't smoke in bars in California. The one exception is actors can smoke on stage
when they're doing a performance.
So he set up two theater chairs in a bar
and invited theater critics down and set that everyone
in the bar is a performer so that smokers
were allowed that night.
So people come in and the smoke,
and he's going up and down street like,
hey, you want to smoke come into the bar?
You can smoke in this bar. And then the critics, like, oh, you want to smoke? I'm in the bar. You're like, you can smoke in this bar.
And then the, like the critics, like, Oh, yeah, I love your performance, like slice of life kind of thing.
So he's like, but was it really amazing?
So he like, analyzes all the footage, then he hires actors to recreate that night.
And repeat that night for other critics.
So it becomes its own, like theatrical production.
So are the critics in the video?
Yes. Yeah. In the critics in the video? Yes.
In the part of the video?
Yeah, it's like adaptation shit.
And they really thought it was serious.
Wow, this was some really incredible commentary on what?
And it's like all these different story lines going on
because it's all people talking in a bar
and doing their normal shit.
It's fucking phenomenal.
It's absolutely crazy.
I feel like I don't wonder what the writer's room is like
for that kind of show, where it's just like people just come up with the most stupidest ideas and they're just like, yeah, it's great, it's phenomenal. It's absolutely crazy. I feel like I don't wonder what the writer's room is like for that kind of show,
where it's just like people just come up with the most stupidest ideas
and they're just like, yeah, it's great, it's great.
Yeah, I think there's just literally no dumb idea.
I would love to see none on like that
or a Rick and Morty writer's room meeting.
Cause like, well, we turn Rick into a pickle.
It's like, yeah.
Got the pickle Rick one was incredible.
This is so great.
Yeah, like you're controlling the cockroach with this tongue.
Yeah, and the way he set it up, just the challenge for himself, and you're like, really let's see, what the fuck? He's gonna pay pickle. Like this is obviously gonna go to a place where he
can't do anything and just like, oh my gosh, this shows just just really clever. Yeah.
Did you guys ever have the Guinness book, a World Records book, or watch the TV show?
Yeah, a couple of them. Did you ever go through them and just like, these are just the most ridiculous records
ever.
Like this has to be people.
Like the longest running, machinima series.
Like longest running machinima series.
Apparently, people still are big fans again at the Guinness book.
And there was a record that existed for most amount of robots simultaneously dancing.
Oh god.
And someone in China, as what would happen,
saw that and decided they wanted to break the record.
So they put about a thousand robots dancing simultaneously
in the same stage.
Like line dancing or what?
You'll see.
I think if we have it on the Apple TV.
We still have that.
Oh, do we not have it? Oh?
Okay, you might have said it over there. I thought I was so prepared you might have thrown it for a loop
Okay, I think they're seeing pulling it up. There you go. Oh, I thought they were so much bigger
It's friend did you not watch your own video? I did I saw the gift and then it was like go to YouTube
And I went to YouTube so I can better share it
No, I thought it was like go to YouTube and I went to YouTube so I can better share it I know a bigger thing. No, I thought it was just some dancing
Get to know we have too much
Pretend that's
That's so great
Just cute. Not one of them. No, they're all kind of in sync a little bit
Yeah, okay, this is great
We're gonna think it is take this.
Like, how do you know there's just not a command?
It's like March, March, kill.
What?
What?
We got that like a foot high.
You're afraid about, like a robot, a person.
I'm super afraid of robots in general.
No, it's Korea, we'll get a server.
Like the guy who kicked that robot dog and the dog,
like, we're dapped him.
Oh God, there was something that was about this
or it's like, Oh shit, I can't remember.
It was some funny comic I saw where the sentient robot was
like attacking human race because we like, you know,
they were computer way. Are they making a jerk?
Were they making jerk off notions? Yeah, I know one
point they were doing this. Like,
decking off to invisible ghosts. Yeah. Well,
maybe that's how they're gonna monetize it.
Would you get a hand job from a robot?
Yeah.
No.
Have you seen that robot, you and I,
sorry, I thought the robot at a blowjob video?
I thought in the podcast.
Okay.
Or it's just like, this discreet foldable blowjob head.
Yeah.
How does realistic filling work?
How do you think it works, Brandon?
It's like, it looks like it's okay.
No, I mean, you said it's a severed head that no no it's like like a briefcase like this folded up body
It looks like someone taking shelter behind a dumpster. I like wrapped in this like shawl. Oh
I guess like
Gifts no gifts
The noise the sound of that was disgusting. Yeah
So I mean I can see it. It's a brand-new fight. Oh
Let's see it's like attacking you or something
Yeah, that's why I wouldn't want to throw up blow jobs is like is like, you don't know if like a hand job, I get blow job at hand job.
Or if like, no, because then if like a call, what is the planning?
What's the difference?
Like you say blow job, I get, but a hand job.
What is that difference to you?
Come on, like a blow job.
It's like all around it and it could just like, you know, just cut into it.
Yeah, a fist could go current.
Yeah, a bottom just could do the same thing. I don't know. I just do something mentally about pages. Something on it. Yeah, yeah, a fist could go current. Yeah, I'm just gonna do the same thing. Yeah, I don't know
I just
Yeah, I mean if your dick's ripped off doesn't matter if it's ripped off or bit off. Yeah, it's just one's worse than the other
It's one's worth the risk and the other is totally not like you ever see the movie teeth. Yeah. Oh, man
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I guess it could just rip it off if I wanted to like I couldn't even do a fleshlight
Because now we're not getting into a safety hazard so much of it is just like I just want to be you know I guess they could just rip it off if I wanted to. I like, I couldn't even do a flush light.
Cause now we're not getting into a safety hazard.
So much of it is just like, I just don't wanna be.
You don't wanna accessorize your J.O.s that much?
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Cause then it's like, I have a bottle of lotion in my house.
It's very clear what that bottle of lotion is for.
Let me ask you this.
I don't wanna go masturbating.
Rub him a mixture.
For you, is it, is the, the experience, is it the passion, the journey,
or the destination? It depends because I've actually gotten to this thing where I'm, I'm
actually trying to make more of an effort to masturbate more because I think it's healthy. So it's gotten between a mix of,
oh, I'm gonna treat myself right now,
or oh, I need to maintain my body
to where I like, it's just like a maintenance thing.
No, but I'm saying like,
what if you had a little thing you could just like,
prick, not in the right word,
poke another word.
I don't know, do something to where you just like,
immediately orgasm, like you don't have to go
and like ejaculate or you don't got a
sweet masturbation.
My mom is calling me.
Um, but what I'm saying is that the journey, like the experience of it or is it just like
the pop off?
Well, you could, you could use masturbation as like a workout routine type thing.
Is that the way you look at it?
Yeah, it's like a thing that like I could potentially make this.
So you do stand up, like I can be better at, uh, no, Yeah, it's like a thing that like I could potentially make this. So you do stand up when you do it?
I can be better at, no, no, no, no.
Like you can make yourself better at sex
by like getting to the point, getting to the point,
and then stopping.
Oh, you're into tantric masturbation.
Yeah.
Okay.
Blaine's in an edge.
Cause like, yeah, cause I got one and I done.
So bring your eyes to the point, stop.
No, no, no, no.
So you just, you don't mean physically exercising physically exercising you just mean do you ever do those
Kegels like for get kegels for guys every now and then are you doing it right now?
now I am
Remember during sex that I think it's also the podcast whenever we were learning about
Kegel exercises. I remember looking around the classroom and everybody's like
exercises. I remember looking around the classroom and everybody's like, everyone is doing. There was a great thread on Reddit over the weekend that was
like, what thing did you learn in sex set that turned out to be completely
and totally wrong? And then like reading through those comments was like, wow,
I can't believe like these are things that people were actually taught.
My favorite one was, you cannot physically get an erection unless a member
of the opposite sex is pregnant.
What?
Whoa.
You can.
What?
Unless they're present, right?
Right.
Sorry. I don't know if you said pregnant. I heard pregnant.
I might have said pregnant.
There was another one that was like, it's physically impossible to urinate with an erection.
No.
I heard it's difficult though.
It's difficult, but it's like a fun challenge.
Yeah.
It feels great.
That's more of an angle.
I never really had sex at.
I had woman's body at like your changing body.
You're gonna start your periods soon.
That's what I remember.
No, we had a sex ed class in Eagle Pass.
It was taught by the coach.
Yeah, we didn't have that.
I had, I actually like, I took a,
I took a human psychology,
or a sexual psychology, I don't know what the fuck
who's called.
It was like psychology meets sex, and it was the best class that took a community college.
And my professor was super fucking cool and extremely attractive.
It's just the best class.
Uh, yeah.
In our, in our sex ed class in high school, every now and then, because it was the coach
teaching, uh, we had to read out loud from the book in class.
And this one girl had to read, and she kept saying penis.
Shut up.
And I was like, oh my god, I can't believe this has happened.
Do all classes do that?
Do you think the coach is just kind of into that?
I don't know.
But we did, it was in health class.
And I think we had like a week that was like sex.
Oh yeah, that's what I had.
Yeah, yeah, it was like that.
Yeah.
Yeah. Sex week. Join us now. I found the best sub what I had. Yeah, yeah, it was like that. Yeah. Yeah, sex week.
Yeah.
Join us now.
I found the best subreddit the other day.
It's called Boots Too Big.
I don't know if you've ever seen it where it's like,
if you see a naturally occurring sentence,
it's like seven syllables, eight syllables,
the finish it, like it's a poem,
it goes into like the cadence of roses
or red violets or blue.
And so there is one that was like boots too big boots too big, I think.
Maybe shoes too good.
But it's someone was like, you know, roses are red, bad farts linger and it was a picture
of a sign on like a pad.
Yeah, it was like penis, pin is broken, please use finger.
But the kerning was off on pin and it is,
and it's like it's a penis broken.
Penis broken, please use finger.
I love, I'm still checking about it.
Whenever they upload, is that a subreddit?
Yes.
Oh, fuck, please hit me up with that.
Because it's whenever they have,
yeah, and then it ends with a picture.
Yes.
You were smashed to penis?
No.
Like, because I'm on purpose or an accident.
Accident.
Accident?
I think I have a couple times.
Like, if it comes, it's like, it's out and then it just
matches, it's the this.
If that makes sense.
Against another penis?
No, against a butt.
Oh.
It comes out as far and then you go to put in and then it
just matches it.
And like, so the floor, like, in pain.
I'm pretty. A penis, where it was sad.
Like, why?
Yeah, yeah, no, it's just like, it's, it's, it's,
it's very like, it could like, seriously destroy it.
Yeah, you can break your dick.
Like, like Dennis Rodman has stories like that.
Really?
Yeah, where he's broken his dick.
If you have watched that show on Vice,
called Party Legends, that dude has lived. He fills a couple of stories about having his dick. If you have watched that show on Vice, call party legends.
That dude has lived.
He fills a couple of stories about having his dick broken.
And he also, like I said, one of the times,
the hospital staff tried to extort him.
They took pictures of his broken dick.
Oh my god.
And they said that if you didn't pay them
that they were gonna leak the pictures,
he's like, hey, go ahead, leak it, I'm care.
Oh, badass.
That's great.
Oh man, that's horrible.
Maybe it's better for his career to do that.
I mean, that's a cool headline.
He's doing fine.
He's in North Korea.
Yeah.
One time I fell off a bike and I got handlebars
in my crotch and groin.
Like, there was no penetration,
but like I got like basically a horrible contusion
along the top of my mom's pubis
and it was so much pain, it was horrible.
Do you guys remember those things that you throw in the pool?
They were like little glow in the dark,
but little like neon cylinders.
And you throw them and then they would sink
to the bottom of the pool,
but they'd be, you know, just kind of standing up.
So it's kind of like, yeah, they're weighted.
Like this, except the way skinnier.
And they had to take them off the market
because kids were jumping in, like maybe like cannonball
and getting like impaled with them.
Jesus.
Oh, that's...
Was it choke, the checkpulonic book,
or I guess I like to masturbate on the bottom of the pool
and let the drain suck on his butthole
and it pulls out his intestine, how does that, yeah.
Oh.
Yeah, there's a really gross term for that.
What is it?
I'm not going to share it's disgusting.
Pink swapping?
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
It's a little different.
I suppose.
It's all bad.
On the pink sock note.
I don't know.
All right.
