I'm Barbara. And I'm Barbara. I'm Barbara. I'm Barbara. And I'm Barbara. I was contemplating saying my real name, but I was like, you know what? Nah. I made the right choice in the end. Yeah. That's true. I'm joined by, of course, Gavin Blanon, Joe.

Great group of people. I'm the one and only, Barbara. And I always will be. Thank you for being here today. You got it. I wore my Hawaiian shirt and honor of Gus. Someone's got to do it on this podcast and it's gonna be me. Rest in peace, Gus.

Well, don't say that because it if he dies, it'd be really shitty. What if he died? No. Would you feel guilty? No, because it wouldn't be my fault. No. Unless he was listening to the podcast while driving a car, and then, like, got so distracted by my joke that he crashed,

then, yes, I might feel a little guilty. What's up, fellas? How was your weekend? Jesus. It was good. Have you seen Nope? No, everyone's been talking about No, but I haven't seen it yet. It's not Nope. It's not Nope.

I saw No. Yeah. Not crazy about it but I haven't seen it. That's so noap. I saw Noap. Yeah. Not crazy about it. I didn't like it. Spoil it. All of it. No, no. I want people to see Ga-

No, I would see it. No, you saw it, but did you like it? Sorry. Yeah, I thought it's all right. It wasn't as good as Get Out in my opinion. OK. I heard it was very confusing. I don't think the directing was really odd.

I see visually immense. Yeah. Very good looking sounding. OK. But as a story, I didn't find it that interesting. And I thought, yeah, it was a lot better. Yeah. I could see why people would enjoy it.

And I also, like, I never like to yuck on anyone's yum. So I could people enjoy that movie. I'm not saying because I didn't that they're wrong or anything like that. I'm not like some people we know Not gonna name any names There's some people who are just so very like Set in their ways when they think a movie is bad. They're like it is bad. Anyone who enjoyed it has bad taste

Yeah, it's bad and you should feel bad for thinking it's good. Right exactly. Like I didn't like it Trevor did Which is very rare that we both feel differently about a movie Eric's been trying to get me to get to see Ambulance one more time ambulance And it's the Michael Bay ambulance you can ask Gavin yeah, I went Didn't didn't find the ambiable combo, but we we still ambulance never find the unbeatable combo however ambulance worth your time Is it better than Transformers? Yes The comparison Michael Bay. Oh That was like vehicle movies is it better than Marvel Avengers? Yes

What else and work? Yes, and yeah, yeah, what's your favorite movie air? My favorite movie is Major League, but I think Ambulance might be number two. That movie's insane. I feel like the trailer, you don't need to see it. You know, like I know what happens. Blaine, as you said to me earlier today, you shouldn't look at the marketing material that's made by a separate company

and judge the movie by the marketing material. You're talking. My biggest story. He said with no, you think Bay didn't get a sign off? Oh, I think he absolutely did. I'm just throwing it back at Blainewood. He told me earlier.

We were working out this morning. And I said, the thing that upset me the most about no, which I thought was a fantastic film and I loved it to death was that a lot of people are like, it didn't live up to my expectation after I saw the trailer. And I was like, don't fucking watch the trailer. I didn't watch the trailer. Yeah.

And I still hate it. I knew it was about, like, I knew what it was, roughly, but I just felt like there's a lot of things I was waiting for to happen and never happen or like something I loved about Get Out and even us to a degree with Jordan Peel is he so good at crafting a story that makes you question a lot of things and all of a sudden things start to click and things like realization start to happen and like there's big climaxes and stuff like that. I felt like there was never really that moment with Nope. Did it all fit in together?

Puzzle piece wide. The reveals were kind of like luster to me, and a little expected, it didn't, nothing blew me away. There were some things that just didn't have a payoff. Right. But I guess that's realistic. I mean, not everything in life, when you prepare for something, you don't always use it.

It's true. It was like a bit where you made a thing. Right. But did we see that again? I think what was that about? I don't know if we did. What was that? What did you do?

He made it. He like, I don't remember that at all. I'm going to go watch No. I'm going to go watch No. I'm going to look for his. You're just going to look at that. Yeah. Because he was making that as a result of how that one experience went earlier watch the film, I'm gonna look for his. You're just gonna look for his. Yeah, because he was making that as a result

of how that one experience went earlier in the film, God, I'm trying to talk vague so that for people in. I get that, that's how he made that realization. Well, but that thing made him have a click moment where he was just like, Jimmy Neutron was like, he was already seen the flashback. I also felt pacing, especially the first half of the movie,

very slow in a little boring in my opinion. And I felt like, sorry, I'm complaining about this movie so much, you should still go see it. It's great, you should see it. It was good about intention. I felt like a lot of the characters, especially the main actor, Daniel, what's his last name?

Could... Caluia? Sorry, from Miss Manchester. He is fantastic fantastic actor. But I felt like he never really had a distinct emotion in that movie. Like I can never tell how he was feeling and even in like really intense moments he didn't really put tray that kind of emotion. I feel like I've met people like that.

That's just like quite realistic in some people. He rings like people, like even in my family. And also, he seemed like he was going for like young Keith David, who plays his dad. And when I saw Keith David not knowing Keith David was in it, I fucking lost it. That's a good point, yeah. That dude rocks. I'll keep David up on his horse.

Yeah. Cowick Keith David. I also saw it with Alfredo and Jackie. And they are just like, they get so amped on horror. And like, they're like the only other two people that love the thing as much as I do. So it was just such a great audience to be around because they were just like, they were fucking,

what the whole farm? Horror scary thriller. Michael was talking to me about it. He was like, it was more thriller. Yeah, I think it was horror. But he also said that Steven Yoon came back as a, it was like a portrayed as like a little kid, like a TV and he said it looked like me.

And I saw the picture and I was like, I was like, that is eight year old Joe. And that took off my glasses, I took off my glasses and I, and he was like, yeah, I was like, he was like, what is it hold on? There's something wrong with the nose and then he was like a little pig no kidding.

Oh. So technically I was in that movie. I want you to recreate the scene that I have no idea what the scene is, he was like a little pig nose. Oh. Oh. So technically I was in that movie. I want you to recreate the scene that I have no idea what the scene is. It just shows pictures. To the best of your under table. Oh, yeah. It was just.

It looks scared. It was just. Wow. Wow. Like, what's your body? Oh, thank you. I think real. But now we need to decide by side.

Uncanny. Unc side. I'm canny. I'm canny. I have no idea what the scene was, but no idea what the scene was. You got to see the movie? I want to, but I keep hearing really mixed reviews. Oh, you just see it. I just wanted to see it. I shouldn't watch it.

It was a perfectly entertaining and interesting movie. I just think my expectations were high with Jordan Peel. I did hear some of the things though that like, the pieces didn't really match. Like it was kind of felt like it was all over the place, in a sense, so I wanna watch it just because there's so much hype around it, and of course like Jordan Peel's movies are,

have always been good, so I just wanna see it, because of that. Maybe it just like filled a bunch of niche things that I really like in a movie. Like it had aliens, that's great. It had like a really cool stoic character. They did a,, like it had aliens, that's great, it had like a really cool, stoic character. They did a, here's the plan montage, and I am a fucking sucker for that stuff.

Like anytime that's like, this is how we're gonna rob this bank, and then they have a map and all this stuff. Like I'll go crazy for that stuff. Yeah, the ending scene was pretty cool. Yeah. With the big plan happening. Yeah, and then like, yeah, I'm, again,

trying not to spoil anything. Did you guys see Thor? Yeah. No, this is death. Oh, I haven't seen Thor be. I was gonna go watch, I'm again, trying not to spoil anything. Did you guys see Thor? Yeah. No, this is death. Oh, I haven't seen Thor be. I was gonna go watch on a release weekend and then boom, COVID. Yeah.

Boom, death. So many other people now, there's a, I mean, COVID's sweeping through the world again, as it has been for the last three years, I guess. As a smokey box. Woo-hoo. I really hope that that's not like the next thing that we're gonna have to like,

fucking deal with. I think didn't they just declare it, uh, put, like, state of emergency kind of situation? Yeah, situation. Uh, uh, or whatever. Is there a vacs for that one? There is. There is a vaccine for the monkey box.

Yeah, there is. But it is very, uh, it's very limited because there hasn't been an outbreak like this in a very long time, so I didn't manufacture that many. I managed to get an indecently early vaccine for COVID, whatever that happens. And I remember telling Armada Torres about it and he's like, you bitch, you cut the line in front of so many people. What are you, a frontline comedian? He just like grilled me.

And he was so fucking bad. I regretted that so much and then I told him a therapist and he's like, no, if you're gonna get a fucking, fight tooth and nail to get a vaccine as soon as you can. What did you do? Like standing in front of some old woman? Like what you, no, there was like in, in Austin. Standing in front of some old woman.

There was like a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a. It was like, shoot me up, babe. It's a bunch of like, it's very sick and elderly people coming in. The fuck out of the way, grandma. Like, comes in lifting weights. He takes the walker out. When I'm near there, it starts growing. It's like, yeah, I get so weak.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's crazy. It's just, I feel like everyone I know has got it at this point. Monkeypunks? Not monkeypunks. God, I hope not. Monkeypunks is actually spreading pretty bad from whatever.

I'm apparently horrendous. Is it transmitted through touch or is it aerosols touch? It's typical touch. It's all the things we feared COVID was, and then we ended up finding out it was just mostly air stuff. But it's like that, but worse. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that.

I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that.

I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that.

I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. I can't even look at that. just pray that this isn't one of those really bad moments where you could go back and watch this podcast and be like, ooh, how little they knew. I mean, it is. It's really it. Stop. Okay, okay. That's what this book has for. Yeah, it really is.

Yeah, it's like a time capsule for all the dumb fuck things that are taking a moment. I don't wanna say it. That's just what, and then people go, look at these eight things that they got wrong. Imagine recording yourself for 90 minutes once a week where you just had to fill time and then having the audacity,

you're gonna be like, can you believe they were wrong eight times? Dude awesome. Prision with a fucking choir, man. Dude. I've been wrong on so many things, but also like, yeah, because you're talking for two hours a week,

every single week about whatever. I mean, a lot of life is being wrong. Right, and learning. You're not gonna nail it is a lesson. I still remember back in like, I think it was either January or February of 2020 when we were talking about COVID. And we're like, it's like a cold,

like it'll be fine. And then Gus is like, come to RTX. I'll spit in your mouth. I'll spit in your mouth. RTX did not happen for two years. Oh my God. I don't know, I like spit in your mouth. Oh, I'll spit in your mouth. RTX did not happen for two years. Oh my God. I don't know, I like moments like that. I mean, it's all just like reflective of the time, isn't it?

Like that's sort of how the media was around that time of like. Yeah. Yeah. It was just a cold. Ooh. Yeah. I mean, we were like reporting that it was like, oh, you know, it was the B-Strein of the, of the food that came around early.

This year, not the A-Strein or whatever it was. Yeah. Not entirely true. Just, you know, people learn things as things change and information come to like... And when to see COVID. I'm still thinking back to like the week that we were going in a lockdown. And I think we like came in for one last day of filming before. And there was this thing that we shot where it was me wrestling Chris while he was trying to do like, uh, what's it?

Shrades. Shrades, yeah. And I had like, we had wrestling with my shirt off and then you can see me in the background on one shirt wiping my body with the Lysol wipes. Like that was going to do anything. Yeah. You just, you know, Why so I don't want to touch anyone because of that.

Now I was wearing gloves because I didn't want to touch anyone, but the only gloves I had were like those like winter, like little mittens. Yeah. So I'm just like doing charades at these things on. It's so stupid. How little we knew. I also remember back in I think it was like a podcast in 2012.

We were talking about the word selfie. And we're like, so dumb, that'll never catch on. Oh, God. Now it's literally like programmed like, official like selfie cam. Now it's like instead of the word photo, people are like, who'd take a selfie? I think the question I asked was,

is it selfie like self, or is it selfie like, cellphone? Self, yeah, like C-E-L-L. You got point, digging, knock those end bags like. We made a show last week. Yeah, you did. I guess we could talk about it now, because you guys are done filming, but.

We can't really talk about any of it. No, but I mean, I think last week we didn't want to mention that you guys were filming in case it became obvious that someone was sure you may or doing something at a time when they should have been filming. I don't know. I was paranoid that it would somehow slip. It's fucking blast like summer camp Like dummy should we talk about you film survive block Island season two meltdown. Yeah, meltdown

Coming out in September Yeah, it was it was Blaine Gavin Meg Andrew Michael blizzbear Gavin, Meg, Andrew, Michael, Blizz, Bear, little Lexi, Foo, yeah. Blessing. Blessing, John Holland, Lindsey, Washburn. And that's it. And some dickhead name, Trevor.

Trevor, Holland. No, I remember you guys talking about after y'all had filmed that like you were pretty new to the company, you had an interact with John and stuff like that, but then you guys suddenly bonded after around a week of filming and stuff like that. Yeah, it was cool. Basically, everyone in the first season,

I didn't know except for who was an achievement hunter. And even that, it was like, and even then it was very fresh. I didn't know them going to personal level really. It was like, oh, I'm new an achievement hunter. I mean, then that was like, and even then it was like very fresh. Like I didn't know them like on a personal level really. It was like, oh, I'm new to achievement hunter. These are my new co-workers. You know, like these are my new friends and I haven't really interacted with them too much. So it was kind of cool because it was like,

I think all those people, I bought them in Minecraft over anything else. And then I finally got to meet them like weeks or months later after that. I'm so excited to watch it back because it's basically like you know Andrew Pantan and have known him for years. This is like my first time ever interacting with Andrew Pantan and all of our stuff is filmed.

Like you get to see the growing of Andrew Pantan in a nice relationship and it's just so fucking weird. If any of it makes the cut. True. There's, I mean, we're filming hours of content. So who knows what's gonna, I mean, it's gonna be a whole library. Yeah, you make it and you think,

man, we could make like a half an hour episode just out of the stuff I did this episode. Oh, I know. But there's like two teams and like people everywhere. It's like, I'm just hoping I get some screen time here. Yeah, that's something that is such a shame because obviously to get more footage edited, you need more editorial resources behind stuff,

which costs money and blah, blah, blah, blah. But man, I wish there could just be a serious page uploaded just for bonus content from Block Island. Raw Block Island. Just conversations or just funny moments that happen will never make the final cut. There's moments like we get these exploratory periods where we go out and try to find like, you know,

totems or we can like build base or just do kind of chores and stuff. And you don't know if you're out there alone or what and stuff like that, but then you'll see like a little pebble move on the ground and it's someone walking and filming you, but they're invisible. Yeah.

So then you're like, oh, you're like more performative. There's this whole thing, it was the exact same thing, Gav, like I had this huge elaborate stupid fucking thing happen and I was like, I hope that makes the cut. And if it doesn't, it's funny to me, but no one else will see it. It's really interesting the way the proxy chat works and how fricking alone you feel if you just walk away from everyone

but you can actually get lost. Did it actually work for you guys? Yeah, did it off you? No, so we got proxy chat and then it broke a million times. The first day of filming it, that's why it took so long to start for us was like proxy chat kit breaking so they had to manually do it for us. Oh, it worked. Like, moved us channel to channel based on like who was near who.

Interesting. So a lot of work for the Work team really well. Oh, oh, let go ahead. Well, I was gonna say I'm gonna be very vague with who in what in any of this stuff But there was a moment with the proxy chat where I was mining. I was like several Feet underground some people and I could hear them and then I started being just trolling them, because they're like, where is Blaine? And then I'm just like, woo, yeah. I'm just like, I'm under nearly, literally underneath them, and they don't know.

Oh, that's so funny. It's just, oh my god, it's so much fucking fun. Yeah, I had some moments where I would like wonder off, and you could just hear if I'm getting more quiet. I don't know, I'm already right now. But then you see like, the cameraman footsteps, and then sometimes you just be like, off on your own, it's just like, I don't where, you're right, I'm on my way now. But then you see the cameraman footsteps, but then sometimes you just be like, off on your own, it's just like,

I don't where they come from. Hello, and it's like no foot steps around, and you're just like, guys! I genuinely feel love. Did I tell you what happened to me in season one where I started going the wrong way by myself? So I was off talking to people and I was like, I'm gonna go find this like other person.

And I started walking, but I'm terrible with direction, especially in video games. And so I just started like going to the opposite end of the beach. And I was walking and all of a sudden I get slapped. Like my character gets hit and like gets knocked back and I go, that was weird and I keep going and it happens again and I go, huh. And then I turn around and start going the other way. It turned out it was Trevor. It was like a cam offing me and he just like slapped me because he's like, you're just gonna run to the end of the beach and like not get content here.

So, wasn't there a part, I think it made it to a final cut. Wasn't there a part where you were talking and then you like, you went the wrong direction and then you realized you were alone, you're like, guys? I don't know if that was it. It was in the fun. Isn't that the one that might have been different? It's been out for a while now, but essentially one of the, like, it was when it was me, Joe,

Alfredo and John left in the game and we got back after just voting someone out. And we're like, all right, well, I guess we're all gonna split off and talk now. And then John and Alfredo go off and talk. And I go, and Joe, you want to talk to me? Joe? Guys? And you're like, you were just nowhere. You were just like, you were just standing there like spinning around and so you were like, hello? I was very sad. I'm trying to comb through non-spoiler things. And I don't think this will make any sort of cut. But there's a moment where, you know, I'd get in a boat and I'd go exploring and I was out in the water.

And that's what I'm swimming. I start to hear Michael off in the distance and I realize that I'm rowing past an interview area. So I see like camera crew, lights, and Michael's a little avatar and I'm just going like, I really, I hope that's in the background. I hope you're in the background. That's so close. And I was just like,

it seems like they learned a lot for season two, like from season one, because the only thing that you guys film it really, you know, film that last week, but it's also coming out pretty fast, compared to how it was season one, where I think it took them like four months. We filmed in January.

We should never end making the show. There should always be a dedicated crew making survive block island. It is so much like it is by far our best content. Please go watch season one. I watch it just to catch up because you've been pushing me to watch it. And like I saw the RTX panels fucking packed.

And I guess I just didn't quite get the hype and then I watched episode one was like, this is fucking great. Yeah. Did you watch the whole thing? I just episode one. Oh, yeah. And you did too.

I did. I think a lot of people to prepare for filming the season Did you watch the whole thing? I just said one. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, again. And that's not- That's not the, like, I had a fantastic time, filming that show. I think, like, we all did. Everyone who was in it loved it. But God, it is so stressful. And, like, not stressful in a way, like, a normal show we would film is, it's, like, socially stressful of just, like,

having to fly to people or, like, play mind-gains. And- It's, like, playing among us over the course of, you know, several hours a day. Several hours a day, yeah. Yeah. It's, yeah, it's fucking, it just really takes a toll on you. And yeah, I had bad sleep at times, you know,

because I was just like just thinking about, you know, what other people are thinking and what I was gonna do in all, yeah. So, yeah, it's one. Yeah, I was sleeping like shit. The last two, the times I was thinking and what I was gonna do in all, yeah, so yeah, it's one. Yeah, I was sleeping like shit The last two the times I was in it was so tired. Yeah Just because of like the long days and the stress that comes with it I just like not being able to wind down as much as normal. You just get hurt when you're just like Well, you're thinking about what happened everything you did. What does this mean for the game?

I know that was me basically whenever I was not filming. I was thinking about? It's like so what happened. Everything you did. What does this mean for the game? I know. That was me basically whenever I was not filming, I was thinking about what to do the next day. I don't know about you. Mine was filled with running upstairs and telling, that's what was going on. I was like, I was like, you're not really what happened. This is crazy. This is crazy shit. And so she got like a front row seat to sing everything.

And then so also, but seeing how much staff got cut out too was like, oh my God. Because you didn't realize all the other stuff happening on the other teams. Oh, I know. And so when you put it all together, it's like, oh, this is juicy. There's a whole, there was a whole thing of us talking about french fries and mayo. Yeah. That like got completely, like obviously got cut from the show. But yeah, but they left my, so I mean,

I think we talked about it on the panel, I think we were there, but the entire bit was, I got betrayed because me and Fredo were talking final four, like yeah, I can't wait to get back home, you know, get back, you know, to the States and get off this island. I was like, I can't wait to eat french fries and mayonnaise, and then Alfredo just takes a long pause

and is like, what did you just say? It was like French fries and mayonnaise. He was like, what are you? And I was like, is that not normal? And he was like, I gotta go. And he just went. Yeah, but then he went off to like me and asked the question and went to John

and started talking about French fries and mayo. It was like a whole running plonk. And that's why I got betrayed. That's why I got betrayed because Alfredo didn't like my taste. And so that's why when I got Smited, I said, French fries and mayonnaise for it. And then it never smited me. And because I can't let them go on with that sentence.

That was one of my favorite parts of Block Island. Whenever someone got voted off, they would have little bit of like executed in front of us. Yeah. Yeah, I think I liked Matt's exit the best. He's just like, anyway. Anyway. I went in knowing if I were to get voted out what my thing would be.

Yeah, it's like I was so excited to get into it. Like day one was fun. Yeah, I think it's gonna be such a fun show to watch, especially like as being in the first season it's like you pretty much know what happens throughout the whole thing. And so watching it was still really cool and seeing how everything was edited together

and what happened with the people you weren't, necessarily talking to you all the time. But seeing a whole new group of people come in and do it is gonna be so much fun. Also, the whole meltdown aspect too is gonna be a completely different vibe to the show. Yeah, which is very fun. Yeah, definitely through some twists in there.

Yeah, I don't think I've ever been so excited for something I've been in to come out. Yeah. Like all the time, I'm like happy with what we made. And I'm like, I don't need to watch it that quickly. Yeah. Because it's like I just lived it. But so much of this I didn't live. That's true.

I dreaded hardcore mini golf coming out. I was like, I'm so like two or three whatever I get. And we're doing with Chris, like that'll be fun, but like I was like, I don't want it. I don't want it. No thanks. I don't know how they're gonna edit that shit. This is just bad.

I don't think either of us enjoyed that last episode. Man, it was wild. Plus like, I can't. I enjoyed it. What, you're like,, I, I know Eric and Michael did. I'm sure you did. Oh, that was actually like a nice bro moment for you and me, Gab, because I think after the fact you texted me, you're very real and candid and you're like,

I don't like how that went for you. And I was like, thanks, man. It's very sweet. You should watch if you haven't yet. I have it. I should check out Heartcore Mini Golf. Heartcore Mini Golf. But just watch the last episode.

Just last one, no context. Yeah. It's like me at my most athletic and me at my least athletic. All in one show. It's incredible. Also, your dress is Hulk Hogan. No, watch your main raise now. Much of man, sorry.

Different, wrong character. But I think it's in the first episode. I'm dressed as some golf turf. I'm dressed as like the ground. And I lie down on the ground. And Fiona plays her ball off basically my penis. And she just clubbed the tip of my penis. And the very first thing I did on that show, I was like, what a start.

Yep. I think I thought this word gillisuit. Ooh, that'd be fun. And I won't even play the game. I'll just hide the entire That's actually clever Michael's character had just like he was like the white counterstrike counterteris look Oh, okay with like the mask and everything his golf club had a scope And Eric just kicked the bull you're like a 70s The character I was just having a good time And Eric just kicked the bull. You're like a 70s. She's like the character. I was just having a good time.

Well, like, I mean, not to, I'd spend years, so whatever. At that point, the pandemic was hitting. We didn't know what the fuck was going on. So we had someone else in mind. So then they couldn't come. So then we're like, Eric, get in here. And we're like, what do you want to be for your cut? Like, what happened to the cost?

Eric, I just told Eric it like, you know, like real like sleazy seventies thing. She went, I got, don't worry, I got it. I got it and dressed me as that and it was like, great, just kick the ball, which is a real problem for all the producers on the show that I was kicking the ball. There's going to be stroke penalties. This isn't real. It's fine. Nothing matters.

Going back to, good to block Island, my favorite thing that Trevor did is when he just shut up, he'll say, that's new, that's not that's not that's not that's not that's not. Trevor's good because obviously I still like make and plan almost everything and host it, but also keep everyone in line without being stunned. And he's able to like host and like slap people down and tell them to shut up in a really funny way where everyone just laughs. It must be the most exhausting for him and all people I think. It was, I mean, he does such a phenomenal job with Block Island in terms of like, you know, developing the show and then actually hosting it, but it's not just hosting it.

You also have to pay attention to all the story beats so that you could ask people the right questions or say the right things in moments to get the right drama out of people. Yeah, and even when he's not hosting, he's like, camming. He's invisible flying around. Yeah, he's also cam-opping. So, yeah, he had, I think, a stream deck this season, but he didn't last time, so we'd have to, like, tab out of things and move things around off screens to get to different things.

I honestly started seeing him as his little Minecraft guy because it was just so real. Like sometimes like one time he was introing a challenge or something and he just like slipped and fell off and he just like, and then you went, oh, there it is, like he actually like fell off the stage. It's just so real.

I don't know what like little Lexi and Fouya look like, but I know exactly what their Minecraft skins are. Yeah, I would like that's how he's so sweet with them. I still see Joe as Pikachu. The shitty Pikachu. It was the worst thing when I was wearing the helmet. Like when you guys were talking about, when we were filming first season,

they were like you look fucking, like you look scary on that helmet. I was like talking about. It was just the, I was really, yeah, and then finally I saw like the first episode come out and it's like, all you see is the little pupil. And then I would tilt my head back and it's like, hello. Yeah.

Why would make you pick that? Like, do you have a history with that skin? No, no, it was, I started, you know, I joined a QingHunner and then my first skin that I ever like, I guess, debuted as was the buff, buff syndaquil in GMOD. I was like, you know, debuted as was the buff, buff syndaquil in GMOD. I'm gonna continue with these shitty Pokemon skins, and then I found the worst Pikachu

that you could possibly imagine on the Minecraft skin. I just chose it. So great. I honestly, like, after filming for a week with that show, I couldn't picture people not as those Minecraft skins for a very long time. Well, it's cool too, because, like, I mean, Jack, Michael, Gavin, all have history with Minecraft

and you already kind of, you've seen these skins keeping up creeper forever. You're normal ones, right, for the show? I've been the creeper for 10 years. But at some point, when we moved over to the PC, the skin got a little bit messed up. I think it was like, after maybe we did it, you dead and we got a little bit zombified

and then the game you made, real skin back, but I've got like black stripes on the back of my arms, so I got like racing stripes. Could you not change it? I'm sure I could, it just happened about five years ago, I've just never done anything about it. You have a thick model and a thin model, and then if you switched it to the thin model, that would go away. And we told you that and you're like, I don't care.

Yeah, I can't be bothered. This episode of The Receipt Podcast is is brought to you by stamps.com. If you've got a small business, inflation isn't doing any favors right now.

Okay. The motorcycle video game? Yeah, that makes sense. I thought he was Doom guy, but like shitty Doom guy. Nice shitty trascot. I heard that Fouya has a duck skin. It's your skin. But with like a hat and a like boots or something like that or some shorts or something like that.

You can watch the trailer because the trailer's out or it's easier. I'm just a Minecraft. But it's you, but in camouflage, and she would do like military like things early on. I don't know, yeah, it's. I love Fouya. I'm so excited to see her in the show. She things early on. I don't know. Yeah, I love who yet. I'm so excited to see her in the show.

She's a little goblin. She's a little goblin. Yeah, a lot of her. With Minecraft, it's so emotive. You can move your little character and look around. And she would just be walking by you and she'd go, yeah. And she'd punch you and you'd be like, the fuck is wrong?

I love her so much. I love her so much. Yeah, Trevor, the tut tut thing he was telling me about. He was like, I had to tell people to kind of listen up and I would just be like, tut tut. What did he say to us? I think he was always just like, all right, you blockheads. You call them blockheads.

You blockheads? Yeah. We were also pretty well behaved, I think, most of the time. Yeah, I think we were also, all of us were a little lost. Yeah. Michael was in our production, so I think you can kind of grasp how under control we were. No, everyone super well behaved. It's good times. I can't wait to see. I feel a little bad that we kind of spoiled some of season one, but I said who's like our final four were. Oh, I mean, it came out.

No, just right now. Before it came out. No, I mean, Jessica, you did talk about it on the panel too. So it's like, I mean, Jessica also said who won like a month ago. Oh, that's true. I just, was that a spoiler like she said it ahead of time? No, like for that season.

Our season, that had already been out, but there's still some people who are watching or like maybe you wanna get first when this season comes out and watch both. You should still watch the first season if you know of things about it. There's a lot of contacts in the first season that you're missing that we've talked about today.

So after, so RTX having three weeks ago, and that's like our one opportunity where we get to see all the fun house and all of our friends from across the states and stuff. And I love working with Patrick Brown from Fun House. He's a fucking hilarious. But my goal for Block Island was to not be Patrick because he had the worst arch of any person

in Minecraft. So I like Island. I kind of, yeah. I mean, he got a little screwed over with the team's swap-ups and who we was placed with and stuff like that. He looked so bad, it was really funny, but Patrick is a very funny guy. I kept calling him Johnny Bravo because he had like a black t-shirt and jeans and like yellow hair. Every time I saw him I go, he had like really beady eyes too. And a mustache.

Yeah, it's like really small, like tiny pupils. He's so funny. Yeah. All those fun house peeps are Charlotte absolutely killed it on our season. Charlotte was our saving grace in terms of comedic relief a few more. So great.

What else do we have going on? What are the productions that are down in the pipeline? We have Red Dragon in coming out now. That's right. That's the three's We have Red Dragon in coming out right now. That's a three-zons way. This week, I think. Tues out already? That was another fun one.

Yeah, I realized very quickly that the character I did in hardcore mini golf was like a little chimney sweep, like Cockney accent, chimney sweep, and then for Red Dragon in, I'm playing like a little child Cockney accent as well. I'm like, I got one and done. Son of Chimney sweet. Yeah. It's like this right isn't it? How's the accuracy? It's very good. Oh good. Yeah thank you thank you. I ripped my pants probably four times on Red Dragon Inn. You will see. You're real pants. The pants that Erica gave me are they're like it's

literally two burlap sacks sewn together with red and because I'm playing like the Bouncer character I'm carrying people out or escorting people out when they get out in the game and I just kept fucking ripping my pants and I it's like, have you ripped your pants? I actually just recently ripped my pants. Yeah. Oh, I saw. Yeah, so sure. Was it in contact?

Yeah, I guess I could say it. It's my first show that I'm producing. Nice. And yeah, I ripped my fucking pants. And what made it worse is that other people continued to rip my pants And then I rip my own pants was it in the front of the back it It was literally right in the crotch area literally right there and then It was in an area where I was surprised that people were delving in and rip it

Oh, God, yes, yes, and You know you'll have to wait for that, but I mean, that's a little teaser for that. But hey, it makes me feel better. Makes you feel better. Because I didn't even know I ripped my pants until that happened, and then it just progressively got worse. I saw you that day that you ripped your pants.

I just realized. Yes, you did. Yeah, you were walking around here, I think. And then I found an extra pair of pants in my car, and I changed to the parking lot, because I was like, I am not going back to my business. You have spare pants in your car? I didn here, I think. And then I found an extra pair of pants in my car and I changed to the parking lot because I was like, I am not going back to the office of this. You have spare pants in your car? I didn't know I did.

I don't know where they came from, but I know they were mine. Well, just in case one of our stages here has a ton of wardrobe if you ever need something to get yourself out of a pickle. Yeah, it's also called Chris' second closet. Michael offered to give me a pair of random sweatpants he found in his car, and I was like, I think I'll take my random pants over your wrist. What's the worst item of clothing to borrow from someone other than underwear?

Ooh, socks is great. Socks is pretty bad. Bull gag? It's pretty personal, yeah. I don't lend mine to anybody. Just for me, baby. Ripping your pants is awful because I was very aware when it happened, because sometimes you'll get a noise,

but most of the time it's the rush of cold breeze that hits your dick and balls, and you're like, that's not like, I either shit my pants, cut something and now shot a bunch of blood into my underwear, or I ripped my pants. Oh, that's very, very different scenario. Here it's surely different, because it's so hot here. You would just get a rush of heat.

No, it was like, because you're sweating, so your pants are bundling all that up, and then that air just... So the air against the moisture. Oh, man, how about a penis? What's that like? Dwayne floppy. Dwayne. John ripped his pants.

We were trying to do something we saw in TikTok as we should never do, because we're all in our 30s. But it was like a physical challenge. I think we'll probably put the video out pretty soon. But he's wearing like jean shorts and he does it. And then he just goes, I rip my pants. And he turns around and there's this entire scene. That's just like ripped all along his ass.

You've always got to be careful showing people that because how do you know you haven't ripped boxes too? It'd be pretty hard to rip boxes though. I mean, let's be honest. Fabric? No, I do it all the time. They naturally rip themselves. Yeah, well, if you've had them for a while, sure. Yeah. I, uh, it's, it's, it's supposed to be stretchy

and stuff like that. Yeah, I mean, if the fabrics weren't out, sure, but like, you know, you can talk them on a regular basis, people aren't just ripping their boxes in half. Yeah, putting chateau if you ever ripped your boxers. Yeah. Let us know if you're showing whole or anywhere. Yeah. Well, some on elastic, some of them will rigid on it. Yeah, short style. I have this face rather than box of briefs. It's probably, it's like pre-pandemic, probably like 2016, 2017, where I just stopped wearing underwear,

and I just started just going commando in sweatpants. No, just like, just general. Like it was summer, and I was just like, I'm just not gonna wear underwear. And I'm glad that that didn't happen when I was in my pants ripping phase. I'm glad that this dude didn't overlap. That was such a shock.

But then I started switching, man, my underwear experience is weird because it was a girlfriend that I had in college. Is that the title of this? My underwear experience. She called me out because I had just been wearing boxer braids, but they're really loose and baggy, almost boxers. And at one point, we had just hung out.

And she was like, you look like you're wearing an adult diaper. And then from then, that point on, I was very like. It just had a big, floppy gusset. Yeah. Yeah, it's just my ass hung out and was all baggy. And just looked. She needed to fill it out a little bit more though. That's all that is. I did have a lot of spots.

I know. But then I started switching to like athletic wear underwear and that's all I wear now is boxers. She's like really like just, they're cozy though. Yeah, they're very comfy. Breathable, it's good. I don't rip a lot of stuff.

I remember when we were doing the age live tour, at some point during the night, I was stood next to Ifi on stage and it was like the first time I was on stage with him and I didn't know what he was gonna do and he just in the middle of speaking, just ripped his shirt off. And I was like,

he just tore it off. He just kept ripping a shirt. Yeah, that was his thing. But he was like completely backlit and it just ripped off and I saw all this particles come off. It was like, I guess a combination of tiny fabric and sweat. It just came off as a mist and I was right next to him and I just went, and I just inhaled it all.

And I was like, wow, there are really two types of people in the world. It's the person who's like, buff, the amazing physique and the guy who inhales his dust. That was the two of you. I was just like, what, what's the worst? Go ahead. Oh, no, if he's one of those dudes where I look up to him,

I respect him a lot. I'm always questioning my friendship with him because I feel like he's too cool for me. I saw him at RTX and I went up and he wouldn't feel like we're doing photos of some people. And I came up and I learned my mask because I was wearing a hat because I was just trying to walk around the floor

and I was like, hi, if he didn't say anything, he just picked me up and carried me around and just swung me around. I've never smelled, I've never felt more small. He just was just like, I was a ragged off. I'm gonna have laid me out during age life. Tell you. He accidentally need me in my, in my sternum, like my stomach.

And I just got the win knocked out of me, but he need me really hard, then he picked me up and slammed me down on the couch. I'm gonna guess it's because of the wrestling. Yeah, I think I have that in slow motion. Yeah, you do. It was accidental. Like, I turned around when he was going for a fake knee on Fiona. Fiona left, and then he just clocked me right into my chest,

and then I was literally like ragged all, and he was carrying me over his shoulder and just pull on me down. You get back to age and you're like, Kurt Schoenck. And I was hosting it. So it's like, when I was, and he was carrying me over his shoulder and just pull on me. You get back to age and you're like, oh, Kurt Schoenck. And I was hosting it. So it was like, when I was trying to cast it, I was like, what's like, you got to win that.

Yeah, he's lifting me up a few times too. And then at that A.H. Live tour, I tried to lift him up. Very heavy man. I got him, I think like an inch off the ground. Like I could see his- Oh, that's impressive. Doing like this, and I was like,

ah, it's like lifting him up. And I tend to- He's like, I'm shoved the ground. Like I could see his- Oh, that's impressive. Doing like this and I was like, ah, it's like lifting a person. Like, to the- He's in the, I'm around there. He's just pure muscle. Yeah. It's impressive. He is a very impressive person. He's in red dragon in as well

and I think it's like the barbarian character. So also like, he's fucking massive, he's huge in like- The nicest person in the world. Yeah, and he was also walking around like, no shirt and we're between takes and that could last like an hour or two and he's still just hanging out like with just a loin cloth.

He's the most bossy body positive, like he didn't give a fuck. It's just like it's so cool. If he's so cool. Yeah, he's great. I wish he was an Austin more often. I wish everyone was an Austin more often. Let's just have RTX all year round. Let's do it.

Bum to miss you there, Gavin. Yeah, I was so wetting. Yeah. Oh yeah. How's that? It was good. Family wetting. When I was told the date,

I was like, that is unfortunate. Yeah. It's one of those things that just impossible to move. Yeah. It's probably the one thing that just impossible to move. Yeah. It's probably the one thing that I wouldn't go to RTX for. It's like a family blood relative event. Yep.

You just can't miss. Oh, we missed ya. Was there any like, do you ever experience like culture shot going either way? Is it like still weird coming back from there or do you like forget things and then miss them when you go over there? Yeah. I think I end up just feeling like a foreigner in both places. I think I don't belong in either. Jesus. Yeah, that's really sad. Yeah.

Gavin has no home. He's a nomad. He's nomad, yeah. What do you like because we've lived here now quite a long time, you and I, in Austin, in the States in general. So, do you consider this home now or like? Yeah, this is the only place I've had, I've owned a home. Yeah. Let's get cats. Yeah, it's way going back. And when you've been away from somewhere for a long time,

you kind of assume that it's the same when you go back, like you see the people, it's like, yeah, but everyone's so different. And nobody's around anymore. And like, I don't recognize any of the people on TV. Yeah. It's like a whole new world. Yeah. I had a really weird experience this past weekend. I was looking at Instagram and I followed some people I went to high school with on Instagram.

And I'm going through people's stories. And there was like a wedding that was going on of like someone I went to high school with, her sister was getting married, but a bunch of people from my high school are still all friends and so like a bunch of them were there. And it was like stories of the wedding and like all these things that were happening and then like the dance floor part of the night where everyone's dancing and filming. And I'm like, I've never seen the people I went to high school with who are now in their 30s. Being like, like, white girl dancing, I've never seen that before. I've just like experienced like high schoolers dancing, but everyone's like, with kids or marines and stuff like that.

I'm like, this is so weird to see my high school friends growing up dancing at a wedding. And I was like, so I don't know, just strange. Yeah. I'm kidding. I don't really see high school friends anymore. Mm-hmm. I mean, I didn't really have that many in high school to begin with, but I don't even really even see half of them anymore.

Like, what they're doing in their lives. It just feels weird when you do see them. And it's like, oh my god, you're a completely different person. Yeah. And the last time I left, like, well, they have like a 10-year-old. Yeah, exactly. You're very experienced with things where you reconnect's like, oh my god, you're a complete different person. Yeah. Well, last time I left, like, Oh, they have like a 10-year-old. Yeah, exactly. You're very experienced with a thing

where you reconnect with like your best friends and then you just, you're hanging out and you're like, we have nothing in common anymore. I'm thankful I haven't had that. I have one friend I can not see for like six years and I just go and sit down with him and a pub or like go to the driving range or do something we used to do and it's like exactly the same.

Oh, that's nice too. That is really nice. I envy that. I have one of those. I was the thing that's important. I think a lot of people think like, if you're friends with someone, you should be friends with them forever,

but people change. And people grow apart. I have a friend I recently caught up with who used to be best friends with this other girl. And this other girl got into some conspiracy theory kind of things. And like some some views that not a lot of us may be agree with. And like, they completely drifted apart. And she's like, she's just a different person. I'm like, yeah, people change. People like start thinking in different ways and get exposed to different types of.

Do you think you could still be friends with that person there? Or would it be difficult? It would be difficult. Yeah, just because it's like, there's some things that are just very morally important, I think, to some of us that this person doesn't agree with. Also, just not sharing a lot of common ground. Yeah. Like, not a lot of mutual interest that you could talk about if they're... Like, personally, I think everyone should have, like, human basic human rights and stuff like that.

And if, like, there's things that they like human basic human rights and stuff like that. And as like, there's things that they don't agree with, it's like, that's hard to be friends with. Yeah. I do have friends where just politics doesn't come up there. And you can, like, I know that they disagree, but it's, I can still be friends with them, just because I've known them so long. Yeah.

I mean, there's some people, I'm not going to specify who, but there's some people in my life who are at the opposite end of the political spectrum that I am, but it just, we know, not to ever bring it up. That's the silent agreement with my family. And anytime it's come up, it's like, it's not good. And me yelling at you and arguing with you isn't going to change your mind anymore than them yelling at me and arguing with me is going to change my mind. So it's just like you just don't really talk about it. Yeah. It's question for room because we all have partners. Do you guys have a best friend or is your partner considered your best friend? I'd traverse my best friend for sure.

I think my partner is my best friend as well. Yeah I would agree. Now it's like stuff I would shed I wouldn't shed with like anywhere else. I feel like it's a really personal question and we're asking it in front of like thousands of people. But yeah, it's something I deeply worry about. It's like am I a loser for my girlfriend being my best friend? And do I have not have enough friends? I think that's a good sign. Yeah, it's a sign of trust and you know,

comfortability. Comptability and I think that you don't really find that with a lot of people. It is different. It's a different friendship to, like I would say outside of my relationship, Jeff is probably my best friend, and it's a completely different friendship. All right, well I'm sitting right here. Let's go.

Yeah, also that's a hard question for me to answer because realistically I don't think I've had really any friends for like four or five years before coming here. Is it because you like finished school and then kind of we're out like Well, I think for me was I dropped out of high school when I was like 15 Oh wow part from people was doing adult things as a kid trying to figure that out and then And then yeah, so like I didn't really get the high school experience So I didn't really have a lot of friends,

but I was also like a black sheep, like an outlier for a lot of things. Interesting. So like too smart for school that you had to leave. I wish. I was actually, I was smart though. It was kind of sad. I got offered basically a full ride to a good college in Colorado. If I had completed high school with a certain GPA

and a certain standard, but then I had to drop out. So then I was like, I could have gone the full ride, but honestly, I wouldn't really change it. I don't know. I think that. Yeah, it's hard to let Joe go back to high school. Well, yeah. It's hard to look back on stuff you missed out on and be like,

I wish I could go back and do that. Because it's like, but you wouldn't end up the same person. Yeah, exactly. Like, I wouldn't change who I am today for anything. You also learn a lot by missing out on things or having to like deal with things differently and figure out. Yeah, I got way weird with people like in my age range when I was younger.

I was felt like I just didn't click with that. Like you felt like you were more mature or? I don't think it was like viewing myself as more mature but it's like always like the older people I clicked with more because I had more in common with them in my younger life than I did. Were you better at Halo than all of them? I don't know.

I only played Halo a select a few amount of times because I never owned a next box. I know Gavin was better at Halo than most people. Yeah, I mean most people in my tiny town until Xbox Live became a thing. Oh God. And I wasn't very good at tool. Then you realize, yeah, how shitty you are.

But I don't think it's lame to have your best friend be your significant other at all. I think, yeah, again, I think that's like a sign of closeness and like, I don't know. I don't know who would be my best friend otherwise though. Hey, I'm right here. No, I've thought about that too. Like, I've gone through, it's weird because I think I've fallen into this groove where

Kristen's obviously my best friend, but I think like the other friends that I have are friends for specific things. Not that it's like, I see friends as utilitarian. A friend to help you. No, no, no, I'm seen as that friend for other people. But like, Eric would probably be like my baseball working out buddy. I think you would be one of my movie buddies.

Matrix buddy. Yeah, very niche. We were not great friends, are we? Just matrix. Like, you know, like Barbara, we have mutual interest. Chris would be a friend for certain things, you know? Well, it's like depending on, I see what you're saying. It's like depending on the activity that you're partaking in,

you would invite certain friends for certain things. Yeah. Like, if I'm going swimming or something, there's like a group of people who I would typically wanna go swimming with or seeing a movie, there's like a people who I would invite for that or game night or whatever it is. Like, poor game friends. I'm so excited because it's like, it's like planning a sleepover, but praise coming out

on August 5th, this is not sponsored by Prey. It's a prequel to Predator. Predator's my favorite movie and I have successfully not gotten Kristen to look into it, or gotten Kristen to not look into it. So she doesn't know what it is, but she also likes predator, and we're gonna watch it, and we're gonna get Homestylized Pizza, and it's just gonna be like the fucking best night this Friday, and I'm so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, I don't know. I'm a home-sized friends. Home-sized friends, yeah.

I love it here. It feels more like home here than Colorado was. How it felt, even though it was there for like 18 years. Oh my. I had no idea. Dude, Joe, I know nothing about you. I know what we're in so much. We don't really get to see each other right now, because.

And you guys were non-block island. And we weren't on block island, you know. You chose the wrong season beyond But no, I love it here. I'm blown away at how easily you've slipped into the middle of it And especially achievement and you've slotted in as a complete freak like everyone's free Yeah, you're just able to list like Splat You know immediately. I'll do anything and everything. I don't care I think the one of the times I was in the Achima Hunter office

recently, I was in a conference room and I just see these inflatable baby legs walk by and Joe opens the door and he's like in this giant inflatable baby costume. And I'm like, oh, it did a VR video and they call me baby hands and the VR game was called Baby Hands. Yep.

I saw some sort of comments say something about, oh yeah, I saw Baby Hands, huh? And I looked at your hands and was like, what is it, are they talking about? Well, Fredo made that joke that my hands were really small when I first joined a team at home. Well, before, I think I was just guessing in the office and off-frame me and him like put hands together

and he was like, wow, they're so tiny. And then it just stuck with me ever since. Your hands seem normal size. And then I went to RITX people, like, do you really have baby hands? And that's all I had a bunch of people at RITX put up their hands to mine. They're like, they're actually big.

They're not baby hands. I was like, what did you think? I was just like a six foot tall man when hands are this small. I'm like, I know one person likes that anyway. One person. Moving on. Yeah, I didn't think I knew you were from Colorado.

Yeah. Yeah, came from Denver. It was, I just went there. It was rough. It was a rough move. It was a fast move. And that was also right around Block Island too. Not to bring it up again, but I think you were moving like this weekend.

The week that we film Block Island, like we finish filming on Friday. I then had to pack away my computer, everything, and then leave the next morning at 5 a.m. Well, you were remote for Block Island? Oh, wow. I mean, I guess we had people. Pretty much everyone was remote. I think there was a few people who got set up in studio who didn't have what they needed at home,

but yeah, that's another great part of Block Island, is it could all be remote? Did you have somebody? What was the drive like from Denver? I imagine you got a U you haul and it was so easy No, so I did pods so I had pods move on me. Oh cool me what sucked was we had We had drove two hours out from my house towards Texas and pods calls me and goes you guys did not put a lock on the pod

and I was or you didn't lock the lock and I was like I'm pretty sure I didn't know it's unlocked and I can't move the pod until it's locked. The thing is, forgot to leave my keys there for my mom who was at the house and so I had to drive back two hours. So those four hours extra added to our trip. You didn't think that was a sign that you just shouldn't move. And then, you know, so I got there, locked it up, and then we drove, it was a really easy drive though. That's good.

I drove the entire way, like really no-bracious gas food and just going, and we got to Texas, I was like, oh my god, I'm really fast-drive. You didn't stop it to sleep it, so. No, we just did it straight. So up at five in the morning, and then we didn't get to Texas till two in the morning. Oh, God.

About 21 hours total. Jesus. Well, I guess you had the extra two hour drive back. Yeah. Is that a counter for you? It did. It did. It wasn't bad though.

I actually really enjoyed it. It was a nice, peaceful drive. Because Texas is so flat that it just like, you don't have to be on toes as much. Yeah, yeah, you just, I go. And if I see a cop, I can just slow down right away,, there's no hill. There's no hill. Yeah, yeah, I go and if I see a cop, I can just slow down right away because there's no hills, nothing. Do you use cruise control

when you drive along the census? Oh yeah, I was going like 95, 100 the entire way. Holy shit. I was flying, but she's so, how much bit were you asleep? Oh, you know, about half. If I had a Tesla, probably, yeah.

One thing that was rough on the drive was there's so many little towns on the way to Austin from Texas, so like every 30 miles, there'd be like a small town. So the speed limit drops from like 80 to 25. Yeah, when you're going to the little city. One red light in the little town. Yup, so we kept hitting those.

So it's like, I'm going fast, slowing down, going fast, slowing down. So I think that's what kept me awake, those, just knowing that. I don't really know the standard of the highways, go through that. Yeah, like why don't they just, the side of everything. Never understood that. You've had to dip through Oklahoma and shit, right? Yeah, we, like, the little, tiny, little part of Oklahoma.

Yeah. It's like the difference between a highway and a freeway, right? Like a highway, I think, sometimes could have like traffic lights and so like that, but a freeway, I think is a highway, I think sometimes could have like traffic lights and so like that, but a freeway, I think is just like a non-stop thing, which is what I'm more accustomed to from Canada. I'm not used to highways having like traffic lights and stuff like that. Yeah, I feel like in England, the motorway is always just something you have to go to first. You never like, in a city with one going through it. Like, I used to live in a place in Austin where you open the front door to this,

just literally the highway, you could see it above the houses. It's like, waaaaah, this right here in front of everyone. It's so loud. The crazy part too is like, especially some areas, it's like a gas station or like a restaurant will be just off the road off the side, not off an exit, but just there and it's like merging onto that highway.

It's terrifying. It's terrifying. You gotta hope that there's a red light closed by that you can get on. Before I moved, I used to live in an apartment complex that was downtown, but it's right on 35, to the point where I had like a kind of a corner-ish unit and I could hear the highway just throughout the day.

Day and night, you could just hear it. And I didn't realize how big an effect that, like, that, like, auditory noise and all that, all that, just, like, constantly, like, digging at my, at my, like, sanity, how much of an impact it has until I moved to a quiet neighborhood. Kaleus in this video, and it was about importance of noise pollution and how it impacts your mental health and shit like that. And it is, it's really bad for you. Dude, it's super bad for you.

Like people get more aggressive, they have a harder time focusing. I just remember the worst weeks of me living in Austin, downtown, where they have these things where it's a bunch of bikers coming from all over the place. It's just a big bike rally. I'm like, I don't give a shit about motorcycles,

but when there's like literally several thousand bikers in downtown, they're all going, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. You just like, you want to kill someone. Yeah. And then they have their dogs with them going, ro-ro-ro-ro roar, roar, roar. Yeah, I'm sure you guys heard about it. It was a few months ago at this point, but the trucker convoy that happened in Ottawa in Canada.

Oh, yeah. I have a family that lives downtown, Ottawa. And that went on for, I think, three and a half weeks. Did they just stop traffic in and out? It was just, I don't know how many thousands of trucks were just inundating the city and just completely parked downtown and constantly honking, constantly making noise, constantly on. It was like a protest to the mask mandate, even though like 94% of the people who attended this convoy were vaccinated. And like, I don't know why.

They're trying to be like America for some reason. I don't know what the point of it was. I mean, Ted Cruz went up there to support them so that tells you all you needed to know, I guess. Yeah. A favorite person. But yeah, it was just like, it was literally driving people insane.

And because it was like almost a month straight of just constant, like big, big trucks, like 18 wheelers. Yeah, that's what happened when I moved. Because I bought a house in Colorado right before I moved here, and I bought a brand new house there. And so I moved there three months before I moved to Austin. But we had moved from a house that was like really old. The thing was like a 1950s house in like downtown Denver

that the wall, there's like no noise insulation, nothing. People pop off like mortar fireworks every day. Like it's just so loud there, and then we moved to this one where it's like double insulated, there's like, we look like, it's like close to an airport. So like planes will fly over and you wouldn't even hear them in the new house. And so at night, I almost got like anxious

because there was no noise and it was so quiet. I was like, this doesn't feel right, like something feels wrong. Yeah. So you're just there, set enough more is in the, yeah, yeah, I was the one that going out like banging on trash cans. I'm like, this is more like home now.

But I think it is a true, like it affects your mental health because I didn't realize how mad I felt like at the other house until I moved to the like peace and quiet. Yeah, it's fucking wild. Even just like walking my dog, I feel like dog walks to get more peaceful now when we're in this quiet neighborhood as opposed to like, we're just like,

we're a blocker to away from six street and you just be like, booming stereos and stuff like that. But yeah. Wait, when did you buy your first house? How old were you? 24. Good God, dude. Oh yeah.

I'm lucky. I really did get lucky, right? Because before I was streaming, and streaming was pretty successful for me I got very lucky with you know the supporters receiving like if it wasn't for that I wouldn't be But I got I mean I got lucky I also bought when the market wasn't super terrible. Yeah in Carlos So like the house is already a lot of things I rocketed from what I contracted to that nice. Yeah Well, what do they say? It's like successes when luck meets preparation. And so it's like, you also should give yourself credit for the work you put into

what you do and stuff like that. So it's like saying, I got lucky. It's like, yeah, but you also worked hard. No, the stars, the stars align. I was just there. I was just laying in the grass and then bridging your pants. Ooh, like the convergence happened and everything fell into place. Yeah, exactly. They just blessed you. Here's the house. Yeah, here's the house.

I think before I die, I would like to try and make the leaf blower illegal, just the gas-powered leaf blower. Like permanently illegal or just at certain times the day. All the time. OK. What is the goddamn point? Yeah.

So what? You just started dirt from one area to another. I live now. It's like every Monday, this apartment complex has people come and blow the leaves out into the street. They blow them across the road. Literally the next day, it's either them or a complete different team blowing them all back.

And it's just like a really slow war of dead leaves going back and forth this massive road. And I'm just listening to it. Why don't they make a leaf vacuum at this point? Yeah, we're looking at an electric one that's not actually like spewing pap all over the place. Right. I just really hate them. I don't like that. And there's a lot better things I could be working on with my life. But I think that's a great one.

Yeah. So, shove the leaf leaf blower up everyone's ass. I would love to see you accomplish that. How could we as a team here at Rooster Teaks make the leaf blower legal or like at least pass a standard for like a minimum decibel, you know, to where it's like it. Yeah. I can get behind it. Because some loud noises are like, well, it's pretty cool though. But there's nothing cool about, ah, for 35 minutes at a time.

Every single morning. Just not cool. Not good. I used to, when I lived in Montreal, I lived downtown Montreal. And there was something like kind of nice about like general city bustling sounds, hearing never too loud, but sirens in the background

and car is driving and things passing by. I don't know, it felt like kind of cozy in a way. I had a pretty well-insulated, I used to live in a co-op in college, and it was by a fire station. And I would hear the truck go off every now and then But like it was a different level of noise than my previous place. I was complaining about yeah Yeah, I get where you're saying the it's like the ambience, you know, it's like kind of nice and relaxing at the point

Makes you feel like yeah less alone when my favorite memories was In regards to a leafler it was at an apartment complex So it was on 18th and LaVaca and this this guy was like, it was like nine or 10 PM. Like, Sun had set like an hour or two before. And I just heard this like lawn mower kicking the gear. And I like look out my window and there's dude and like pitch black mowing this like strip of grass that was by this convenience store that I lived by.

And I rolled up my window and I was like, is this really happening? And then I hear this guy, like a couple of units away, it was just like, Hey, what the fuck are you doing? Did he just start screaming at this guy who's mowing this lawn? And they were just shouting at each other. It's the funny, it's fucking 10 PM at night. He's like, I'm almost done.

He's like, do it to fucking morrow. It's like a scene out of a sitcom. When I went to New York, there was someone who was like, Blast New stereo and making a bunch of noise at the Airbnb, I was sitting at and I was like, I might as well, you know, like, went in Rome and I went, I went, I was like, shut the fuck up. Did they? I don't think they did, but there was like, shut the fuck up! I'm not. Did they? I don't think they did.

But there was like safety and anonymity. I'm one of like thousands of these units, so I just scream at this person. I feel like New York is like the city you can do that. And it's like, no one's gonna be like, what the hell is with that guy? Yeah. Man, yelling it's just screaming at someone. You have a great yell though. I feel like if I'm trying to get animated and scream at the strangers,

not that I'm ever doing that, every like, hey, you have the voice, you have the voice. You have the voice. It's never a solid yell. I still remember there was that episode of the R.T. podcast we did years ago, where people were making a bunch of noise in the kitchen. And we filmed the podcast the same day, or at the same time, every single Monday,

people know what's going on. And I think it was when Bernie was still here, and he just got so pissed, and he moved the microphone away, and he just went, hey, shut the hell up in there! Hey, we're filming the podcast! And it was just like the funniest, but also the scariest thing.

I was just like, I don't know if he's actually mad. It's because whether he's mad or pretending, he still goes bright red with the veins. I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, we did that egg jeopardy thing, and I was watching a clip,

it was me like falling onto a bunch of eggs, and I just go, fuck! And then I say, fucking eggs everywhere. And I watched it and it was like, this looks like it reminded me so much of Bernie, and it kind of worn my heart a little bit.

It was like, oh, it's like a Bernie, it was my Bernie moment. He used to do that. He had this rage where he'd be like, his voice would be catchy. He sounds mental. Like, yeah. Yeah, I always left it when I could get into

like, sit up a lean forward in a podcast. Like, if he like closes his laptop, he's like, listen about the ample construction. Yeah, a classic. We love that silent rage. Yeah. That egg jeopardy. It's weird, dude.

Fucking nasty as shit, y'all. The episode that Blaine was in was vastly different from the one that we filmed. They were, I mean, it's some of, I think, the funniest content we've ever put out. It's just the most unhinge thing I've ever seen. But people eating raw eggs, can't, I can't watch that, that's my limit, I think.

They fucking sucked. What does it taste like? Does it taste like egg? You know the smell of raw eggs? That's exactly, it's so weird, it's exactly what it tastes like. Like, it's just like this, it almost smells like, like it tastes like spit that's been sitting.

Oh, yeah. I know exactly what you're... That spit smell, that's what eggs taste like. Did anybody else watch Rocky and then decided to drink raw eggs after they saw that? Nope. Did you? Yeah.

So I don't have a problem with raw eggs, but apparently the eggs that we had were slightly expired. Oh, yeah. They'd been sitting under studio lights. So a whole day. So they tasted a little off, especially the hard boiled ones. Because there was a point where I was just shoving them in my mouth and biting them. Yeah. Uh, well, it was like egg roulette. So it was like, you know, Caleb came to the wrong room. And then me and Fredo kept getting the hard bowl of the ones.

But like, we have an egg cracker, and I wouldn't even let Trevor grab the egg cracker. As soon as he came to me, I grabbed the egg and I put it in my mouth, but I didn't have. And I just started eating it egg shell and all. Oh, I can help you. And, yeah, just everything about an egg is, you just gotta get it right. Like the shell is gross, it's gross, raw, very even cooked versions of egg that just suck.

Yeah, there's a very particular type of egg that's like, okay, I could eat this now and it's actually like appetizing and I want it. And then a very small sliver where it becomes a gag or really. Yeah, sometimes you get like hotel eggs, like the big fat and it's been there like under a hot plate or one again,

you open it and all the the egg sweat comes down the lid and it's just like pulls up like. Yeah, and it's clearly like the powdered eggs too. They're like tiny little clumpus of it. That's absolutely this. My high school used to make amazing powdered eggs and toast. And I was just like, that was like my post football practice meal. And it was, they could be-

They should not go together. Amazing powder eggs. Yeah. So good, dude, it was wide. It's an oxymoron. So what is, they make a egg and grind it up? What is it? Yeah, so what they do is they freeze dry an egg.

Okay. And then they roll. Yeah, and then they crush into a powder, like what you were doing earlier, crush into a powder. And then, just ignored it, put it in the can. That's what you get powder dags. That's not how you get powder dags.

I just didn't see it. It was that awhile. I have no idea how, I actually have no idea how powder dags are there. I believe you all the way up to the end. Are they? I want to say that they're actually like freeze dried or something, right? And then like ground.

It's probably the same thing as like powdered milk where you just. What's a powdered egg, Eric? Also, I just looked at the wide shot and I was like, what is what angle are we? What camera is filming us there? Low one. Is that on wide? Well, I mean, it's the jib, but a powder egg is a fully dehydrated egg. So just imagine taking an egg and then dehydrating it and then

okay, you make it wet and feed it to play not really place football. When we were shooting egg game, I was sitting over there and something really awkward had happened, but it was that's like all the day of filming was just a bunch of series of weird awkward things. And Michael looks at me and is like, do you think someone's going to lose their job

because of this? That's a joke. That's a joke. That's a joke. That's a joke. But it was nice working with you. I heard the cleanup was not fun for the crew that had to, I felt so bad for the cleanup crew.

This whole room wreaked. It smelled so bad. Of old spit. Of old spit nags. Yeah, it was bad. I'm not gonna be able to hold it in. I need to take a piss. Go back, Opie. All right not going to be able to hold it in. I need to get pissed. Go back, OP.

All right, we'll just wait. We won't talk about anything to you again. This is why I like the RT podcast. Off topic, you have the mic. So sometimes you've got to make sure, you know, turn it off or else I'm going to hear you pee. Yeah. Hold on, I don't want to blame to miss this conversation.

Let's just sit. Let's just sit here in silence. Yeah, that'll make for great podcast content. Yeah. Should we just start counting? Start now. Well, he shouldn't have gotten up and shut up, Eric. If you want a good comment.

We're starting already. Sit here. We'll use this time to say one nice thing about Blaine-Each. Okay. If I could switch lives with anyone at Ristie to Blaine. Really? Wow, that's a huge compliment. Wow.

Whoa. I'll have to dive into that later. I think you said the same about me once, but I think I would swap back. Blaine is one of the most talented writer, director, actor, et cetera, creative people I've ever met. If I could have anyone break a watermelon with their thighs over my head, it would be

blank. Whoa, that's a big compliment. I had a whole interview on an SBI that just turned into, like, how much I like blame. Really? Oh my God. I'm gonna be in probably. See, I, like, I love blame, but I just had a had really much time with him, like, out like, when you guys go get home slice.

Oh yeah, when you get home slice, when you get home. You could bond. Well, we'll have a bromant. A bromant. Yeah, bromant. Have we hung out out of work? Once. Laser tag.

Laser tag. That was fun. You went to my birthday. I went to your birthday. That's still to this day is like one of my favorites. It was so much fun. But my plane was there, right? No.

My favorite moment. I think he, he could make it. I think I invite him. My favorite moment is when me and Gavin were sitting in a, I found Gavin sitting in a corner, cowering. We were playing the zombie mode. And then, and then I was like,

I was like, what are you doing? Gavin, he's like, they're everywhere. And I was like, I was like, I was like, kind of gonna sit by you. And so we were just sitting in this corner, chatting it up on the ground, and then someone, they eventually- It might still be behind us.

Like this? And I think Elissa ran around the corner as the zombie was like, I'm like, we should do that again. Yeah. But we shouldn't invite Eric, because Eric's too good at laser tag.

I didn't know this about Eric. He's fucking- That was a little rat. Dominating it, laser tag. Yeah, I'm just a good shot. How many times have you been to what? Laser tag. To blazer tag? Just to any laser tag.

I've only played laser tag probably like three or four times. I'm... So here's the thing. Are you just good with guns? Yeah, and it kind of sucks to say because it's not cool to be good with guns. Oh, look at that fucking guy. He's full of guns. I'm a good shot. I'm just a good shot. Uh, it at that. He's cool with guns. I'm a good shot. I'm just a good shot.

It's since I was like a kid, we would go out to like the desert and like shoot clay pigeons and stuff. And I've always just been a good shot with like a 22 with a shotgun. But that's the thing. Like, and then you play laser tag and you're like, this is fun. I'm good at this. But you can't like telling people, yeah, I'm pretty good with a gun. Kind of fucking sucks. So you can't really say that. At least you're in the right state for it. Yeah, bomber. Yeah. All right, yeah, I'm assuming you guys are talking

about the latest tag place you went to. And I think I mentioned this, but they have this briefing room where they're telling you how to play Lasitaque is if you don't fucking know. It's the same movie that they've been playing for years. Oh, we could tell. Oh, yeah. Did I talk about this on the podcast?

Yeah, I think we told Twitter off to my birthday. Okay, yeah could tell. Oh yeah. Did I talk about this on the podcast? Yeah, I think we talked about it off to my birthday. Okay, yeah, yeah. It's like a giant vibrator. There's like a subwoofer under your nose. Yeah, the subwoofer under the seat and shaking ya. Yeah, we should do that again and we should do boat again. Oh yeah. And boat.

We were supposed to do boat for my birthday, but like just go out on a rent and boat and just like go out on the lake. Life at Aritz, but it's fucking great. Have you tried this Bud-like sodas? Sultas? No. They come with every boat you rent. They're like Coca-Cola.

They have like cherry coke, Coke, Sprite, and Orn soda. Bud lights. And they will fuck your world up because they taste exactly like what they're trying to mimic, but it's alcohol. Oh, thank you. I'll bring you into they're trying to mimic, but it's alcohol. Oh, damn. I'll bring you into work. I'll bring you into work. You can get drunk.

It's okay. Which you, which you've also found a little bit. If there was a product that you, you invented, that was invented where you could just drink normal soft drinks. But right before that, you just took a pill that gave you alcohol over like a four-hour period. And you would just get drunk, but you threw drinking whatever you want.

I think that's just called an edible. Yeah, I was gonna say that's what it was like slow release alcohol. Yeah, it was called an edible. Yeah. Slow release. All right, this product may already exist. But no, I know what you're saying, but.

You just take the same concept as powdered eggs, but you make powdered vodka powder You get a little pill crusher a pill maker Prope the vodka. Yeah, yeah I just realized why I've been needing to piss so much When girlfriend's bought this for me. It is the it's a help is that how what's the volume? 64 ounce It looks bigger than that. I'm pretty sure it's 128. I have no one holding a giant yeti

64 ounce how many cups is that? That's eight cups. I don't know cup is eight ounces is it yeah, so it's eight eight cups eight cups How many cups in a gallon a? So it's eight eight cups. How many cups in a gallon? A gallons what 128 so then that's a gallon 16 right is it not 120? I think it's it's 64 right or 16 cups. Yeah, I think I know why you're doing this Yeah, anyways, there's a lot of water in there. Yeah, it's I get it I wonder like I was showing it to Eric and I was explaining, why do they put, when they're doing organ transplants, why do they put hearts in a box filled with Styrofoam and ice? Why wouldn't they use something like this?

Do they do that? Yeah, when you're doing an organ transplant, they give it to you in a baby little foam or a glue cooler. You're saying that they should have reusable hot boxes or like hot blocks? Yeah, this would get a glue cooler. You're saying that they should have reusable hot boxes, or like hot blocks? Yeah, like this, if this were to get a car accident, it would survive. The heart inside would be totally fine.

I imagine the hot would slam into the side of it. But this is what's the styrofoam, it's just gonna like, but it's so big, there's like so much cushion edge. Yeah. The styrofoam would also absorb the shock better than that metal. What would you rather be hitting the head

with the hot styrofoam box or that? I'd rather be in one of these than a styrofoam box if I were you. You would just roll around like you're in a can. You can insulate it. I think you're talking about mostly the insulation that comes with that kind of thing versus styrofoam, right?

Is that or? It's combination of the temperature protection but also like, it seems ball-proof. If I had to guess, it's probably because they have disposable things they use for stuff like that, because there's probably something about contamination with things that they don't wanna use a reusable thing that they would just launch.

Although, I mean, they use plenty of stuff that's, like knives and shit for surgery that they reuse on other people. So I never use a steak knife for surgery. Steak knife? Yeah. Point out. Yeah.

I'm sure someone stabbed someone in the throat with a steak knife to get something out. Get a bit of steak out. Yeah. Surprise piece, the Adam's apple. Yeah. It's the most delicious part of the body. It's the most delicious cut. It's like the filet mignon of humans. Shall we test that theory?

That would be a day. What's the most you ever spent on a meal? Ooh. How much is a lot of apple? For just like, you and a date. I think I dropped like three or 400 at a steakhouse, not too late. I would say like three to 400 as well. Yeah, that seemed like a date. I think I dropped like 300 or 400 at a stake house, not too late. I would say like three to 400 as well.

Yeah, that seemed like a lot. That seemed like if my 20 year old self found out about that, he'd be fucking angry. Yeah. Yeah. That's like a PlayStation. Well, mine today's climate, you know. Sure, about half a PlayStation.

Mm, delicious half a PlayStation. I still don't have a PS5. I would say like three to four hundred. You got a stray. Ooh, stray is a good game. You play a stray? No one? No, I haven't played it yet.

Trevor and I have been playing, um, God, I keep forgetting the name of this game. Pooh game? It's a pooh. What? Pooh pooh game. It's a game where you put, it's like a, game where it's a co-op game. And you're two little bundles of string and you're attached by one big string.

And it's like unraveled. Oh, unraveled. Unraveled? Unraveled, I guess, is the name. Unraveled two, I think, is the one we're playing. It's fun, because we had such a great time playing. It takes two that we wanted to find another game like that to play.

And Unraveled two is very fun. I love puzzle games where you have to figure out mechanics and stuff like that together. I was, I had my girlfriend do this all the time. I was re-evaluating the games that we played early on when we first started dating because that's how we dated. In our first game that we kind of technically met in was in silence. Oh God. Where it's that giant horror monster that can hear things.

And that's how, that's how I met, we played that once where we were trying to be as loud as possible, right? I think we tried to race the perimeter to see who would survive. Oh, it was like first to die or something like that. Something along those lines, but we were just like, hi, hi. You're just trying to be a magician. Have you guys ever played Escape the Ayahuacchi? No, what is that?

It's like that where the monster can hear your voice, your mic, but it's like a really scary horror version of Michael Jackson. And it's actually fucking terrifying, because he like crawls around on all four... You're drinking that like a big one. He crawls around on all fours, but then when he's like hunting you, he goes, hee hee hee.

Oh, but it's like really creepy. I don't know. Yeah, no, that's not like it would be. I see modded versions of like Half Life, where it's like one of the doctors and it's like hello Mr. Free, man. Like there's so many weird mods on the internet when you can do that show with.

Megan, I recently played yesterday yesterday we played Battle Chess. Battle Chess? Yeah, like an MS-DOS game from the nighties where the pieces have like little shitty fights. And like the rook turns into like a big stone monster and it's just chess. Then you're free to check the king. No, you're wrong, you can come. Why don't you jump off that thing? I think about to check the king. No, you can come. Why don't you jump off that thing? I think about that all the time.

Like just stand on it and as it hits, just jump off then. Right. What is it? It's going to sacrifice himself. Hey, he got it. I said, I love it. I can take that. It's so good.

I love that scene. Well, maybe we should wrap it early. What do we think about that? Yeah, thank you. Let's do it. Oh, hang on, wait. Oh, what do we need to? Hey, go to rtxevents.com and you can buy tickets to see off topic.
