Yeah, it was a wide set of a two. I don't punch it. It confused me. Yeah, it was confused me too. But I wrote the set of my profession. I'm used to it. I used to do these things going. Someone already nailed it in chat. old man podcast. It's a

With Gav Yeah, I was like I was thinking the other day It's like it'd been a while. So I had an old man podcast. I invited a Brian to come on I was like gotta have gotta have John on too. That's how he pitched to me is like I'm a Brian on we want to have an old man podcast would you come like yeah, I can come I'm old. I had to stop you from saying stuff like twice already before the podcast started He's ready to write material which is what we're here. We'll not stop bitching about Apple already I also had to apparently stop last week. I started the podcast on totally the wrong foot Wapen last week. We'll talk about it after the first five minutes. It's apparently it's okay after five minutes according to YouTube

You can't you you apparently you just can't leave the show with my hot takes All right, I'll get it. I'll get it going vaccination Stop stop Erick dying Eric's on the floor. Why is Eric on the floor? And Eric keeps talking about being behind the eight ball. What are you talking about? You just find the eight ball all day. Where's the eight ball? Oh look not good The eight ball in pool are like the eight ball the magic ball It was annoying me early status on slack is, Eric Bedouin behind the eight bull. And then I was messing about something serious.

I was like, I'm waiting on results. I thought, yeah, I don't want to be behind the eight bull on these communication. Have you been on a pool retreat? What's wrong with you? When we did the ads before the show, he slapped them to me. And I copied them all and pissed them in the documents so I could see them easily. Then as I was like reading the last line, it's it, Eric Bador behind the eight balls. I got really confusing from you when I was doing the ad reads because it copied his status and put it into the document. Didn't it mean like you have a bunch of shit you have to do at work and you're behind? Like that's what I take it. I think it's just a trick. You're in a bad position. Yeah, you're screwed. Why'd they keep saying it?

Why would you question anything that that creature right there does? It's annoying me saying it is just written one time and then I said it one time But we have to see it all the time. So it replays you know how you saw that you guys all that just don't slack Eric. Just don't slack Eric I don't do that all the time. I don't either and ease my boss. Yeah, I don't slack Eric constantly. It's fantastic It's it's the best way to live your life I was texting Eric this morning because I was concerned that the Instagram algorithm is really starting to Is really starting to narrow down on me? Like I was you know you click on like the little magnifying glass and it shows you like stuff that you might like. Right. And I found the weirdest post that had like no

engagement but they obviously served it to me. It was Garfield as different planes. I think throughout the years. Right. I think with someone drew this and Instagram thought you know who's gonna like that? Gus I did I want to do it. I want to I want to have a Garfield podcast with Eric Yeah, can we just have a Garfield podcast? My I think I think a great trust exercise would be to hand people your Instagram search screen. Yes. Yes.

And just have them judge what Instagram is serving you because it's serving you that stuff for a reason. So what is it that it's serving you? And that's like the personality like test. Yeah, mine like minus screwed up too because I pulled it up the other day and it just showed MILF's in your area. And I specifically searched for hot MILF's in my area. So this is why y'all are using Luz and the Young people.

That's why TikTok's taking over. They know. They know. They got to figure it out. Dude, I had to talk to my kids about social media. I hate social media now, and I hate that I have to be a parent and a world where social media is a thing,

and I have to be on it and talk to them about it, because they're not gonna not be on it, because I'm not gonna have them be the like, the omniscience kid who has no idea what these things are, because I'm just setting them up to be bullied for that, but I also can't just let them be on it unmonitored, and not let them tell like that everything is a lie. You know, like that's that's the less. Yeah, I'm just hoping it all blows over. It's not going to. It's not just because you have

successfully done the very smart thing. I must commend you of completely almost completely stepping away from social media. It's still there. It's not object permanence kind of thing. It's like, I can't see you. Like that, that's like it is, and with the young kids, it is just like, it is their thing. Yeah, it, yeah. Hit to stay. It mine, or I'm raising mine like Amish kids.

That's it. They're just always on rum sprigas. So they're just always cut and loose and how it I try to limit them to like I say, just play. How old are your kids though? 11 a year. Yeah. I forgot you had older kids. Yeah. He builds like he's like

kind of getting into it, but like it's it's not avoidable because like he was making levels in Mario Maker 2 like last year and it like innocent right But he put BLM on his level and like got like sort of blowback Yeah, keep keep your politics out of Mario games. Yeah, he got blowback from his stepdad because I was like all lives man stepdad because I was like all lives man. Yeah. Five minutes.

Five minutes. Oh, it's really, but it is messed up. Like he's just a sweet little kid, you know, like just putting in like nice things. But it's on the internet. So it's all people are just going to be like awful. I don't know how you I don't know how you saw that. How do you how do you do I just put them I just like, can I get a fake internet? Can I get like a fake, they think they're on the real internet,

but it's like a curated fake one. You could set up like a policy rule on your router or like modify the DNS your router gives out. So it's like, you have your own server, you have Instagram that you run out of your house. Yeah, but they're not even just at my house though. They're at home, where it's just people have school like it's like it's everywhere. Yeah. Like my life sucked on a level in that I was so I what's that called when when you're your

shelter sheltered. What's it called when you're baths. Yeah, that I didn't get the jokes and stuff. And so people would like, I was the kid, I was like, what's that word mean? You know, like I was that kid. And that fucking sucks. Yeah. I felt really lucky in that we didn't have the internet when I was a kid, like I grew up without that.

When the internet finally started getting popular, I was like a really early adopter and one of the first people on, so like I got to figure it out before everyone jumped on. Sure. I was like, oh okay, I'm running this shit. Like I know what's going on. Then like everyone got on board. It's like, yeah. So why you not like a billionaire? That's a really good question. That's actually why I dropped out a college. It was like I dropped out in 97. So it's like, I could keep going to college and finish this, get this degree, which is probably worthless, but the internet is creating such a sea change in this moment.

It's like, I need to go start a company. So that's why I came to Austin and I worked at a shitty call center, earning $8 an hour. Yeah, it was $8 an hour. Yeah, all my friends and who were compsime majors back then were like, yeah, our professors don't know shit. They were just like, yeah, they were kind of dicks too. But like, yeah, our professors don't know shit. They were just like, they were kind of dicks too. But like, yeah, it was, it was such a weird, I miss like decentralize it. Social media is what fucked it up. I miss like having to know like individual sites. I think that was better. Or like, you would go to a little BBS that was like you and 20 other pro wrestling fans and y'all would in it. But there was a little hierarchy.

There was heavily modded like in a way it felt like safer, you know, in some ways just because like even though we were scared more scared of it back then. Yeah. Like don't put your info or your credit card on the internet. You wouldn't buy anything online. If somebody's now, I can add if I have to put in my credit card information. Remember my shit for me. So I have to do it. You know, that's that's how I am now. You saw porn or something gross. It was because a buddy sent it to you. Yeah. Like sent you like goatsy and like that's how you fast. You know, but it was like I don't know. It was like charming in a way. Yeah. It was also also it wasn't just the web. There were like different protocols and platforms. I see. And you like, yeah, God use net. Imagine trying to figure that

shit out these days. But it was like, you use like Archie for file trend. Like everything was named after comics. Like there was Archie and Jughead for file transfers. Like it was like, why? Who made this shit? Like, who came up with the concept of fingering somebody? Yeah, yeah. To find them. Like like it was, yeah, it was weird. Where are you at, Gavin? Sure, I forgot. Like, what do you mean? Is it like command line stuff at this point?

Or do you? It was like different. So like in the RG example, it was its own program. It was its own platform entirely. Like how did you, you would launch Archie? And then someone would be on Archie that you could just say, you could find so it was almost like a almost it was more like an FTP client kind of okay where you would connect to a server and there was stuff on there you would Archie like use the protocol to connect to a server you

can get back like 10 years by sending FTP client that hasn't been a thing I've had to log into our or have one like get a map on transit or something was it transmit it was in a transmit yeah or like telnet like we would tell that into big vbss or mods play mods all the time yeah like that's gone like IRC too and I'm sure some of those are still around but we had like our own IRC channel what it was just like ten of us at most you know just out, but it was like, we all knew each other in real life. We called it poundees, and the channel bot would say, these nuts, whenever anyone said constantly,

so it was just constant stream of this shit. You never stopped. Like never, I'd never got old. And that was 25 years ago. I think we peaked as a society around like Oh two. I think that was it. I think I think I parted just come out. I think that like like this is pretty good. Pretty good time for movies and video games around that time. It's 9-11 but pretty rock-worn. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We made it through the Millennium

Bug. We made it through 9-11 and everything like that. It was pretty good. It was pretty good. What movie, what movies were getting 2002? I will say that it's, I've been going back and watching a lot of like Turn of the Millennium movies because I like the nostalgia and I like that, the look of that film. I just TikTok reminded me, not this is a good example of it, but it reminded me

of a movie I wanted to rewatch and see how it held up and I watched one hour photo. That scary rock movies movie? Oh yeah. The one where he was like kind of a creepy one hour photo developer. Yeah. It's a decent little independent thriller. But then it took me down to further rabbit horn. I was looking through all like 2000, 2001, 2002 film. So I watched like the original born identity like baby Matt Damon running around like, it's a good I like this. Born actually holds up is good. Do you want to take a guess as to the one of the top move? I pulled up the top movies from 2002. Where are they? Shrek. There's like Rain of Fire was in there. I don't see Shrek. No Shrek was maybe it was already good. Maybe. Don't see Rain of Fire.

Are you arguing in the chat about which pull tell net is? Yes. Yes. I said it was to me. Yes. You outed me dude. Oh yeah. Two towers was one of them.

Oh, the rain. The shooting. We were in that's where we were in Lord of the Rings. It was the top movie that year was Spite the Sam Remy Spider-Man movie. Oh. The episode two Attack of the Clones Harry Potter Chamber of Secrets signs my big fat Greek wedding and then two towers Yeah, my big fat Greek wedding was huge. That was the mate. That was the date movie for all of truth I saw it like five times in the theaters Five don't say what we're gonna cut that from the actual. So people don't hear you actually say that.

Oh, I can't look at the glow up she got. She looks so different. I haven't checked it. I saw that in the theater. I did. I did too far. Were you talking about the glow up she gets in the movie? Yeah, in the movie.

Because they like, they do sort of. I, you know how Adele has like lost his own weight? Like, she's one of the people that she lost some weight. She doesn't actually look like Adele anymore. Like in a photo, I would not be able to say, yeah, that's Adele. Until she talks, and you're like, that's Adele. There's one person in this world that talks that way. She sounds like she's about to stab somebody.

I love her. I love her. Her speaking voice is so different than the thing you mentioned. I love her. I love it. Her speaking voice is so different It's fantastic. It's fantastic Yeah, she sounds like she sounds like it's just it's just so different What was the top games? What were like what were what was it? There's two games where were we in video? Yeah, I was still playing Halo one Probably would it have been like you were

still playing because it was like still. It was poor and I've had like one game. No to pull releases. Lilo in stitch pinball was not a notable release video. I don't care what you say. Was that the first animal? That was GameCube time. I feel like. Oh, this is just a list of releases. This isn't notable releases. Figure it out, guys. 10, what? Yeah, you just, you just, you browse through it and you let know what you think the top game is. By City. Oh, super Mario Sunshine, Metroid Prime, Elskroles 3, Eternal Darkness, Jedi Knight, War 3.

Oh, Jesus, a banger year. See, see, we peaked, we peaked, okay? Granted, we were like, we were starting a 20 year war in a country we shouldn't have been in and and we, we hated all queers. And, um, you know, just everything else is terrible. Um, but that is fine. But we had some good games. We had some good games. And we had born identity. What more do you need society? That's it, radial future, that takes me back. See, it's fine, it's fine.

I'm gonna play Vice City again. Yeah, I'm so sick again. The remakes are coming. Yeah, Vice City and San Andreas. I remember being, because I don't have a PlayStation, so you go to the friend who has a PlayStation, that's probably the only reason your friends are that person.

I remember being blown away that you could chainsaw someone and their blood would like land on the lens, invic. Invic. Because you couldn't do that GT3 else. Yeah. The graphics. That game looks like shit. It does.

It's amazing to have like grown up through the progression of like 3D graphics and multiple times throughout that process. We don't do it anymore, but multiple times throughout the process, you would look at something like, that looks too real. And then now it's like, dog shit. I'm not joking. That was how people around me were probably myself, or reaction to Bugs Life, that grass. You're right, though.

From like 97 to about 2000. Yeah, there was like a eight year spin. Yeah, gollum. Gollum was like the leap forward in graphics. I remember playing, I think it was driver two on the PlayStation. And I remember the cutscenes were like pre-rended and they were like actual. So, uh, Warcraft cutscenes were the same way. Warcraft cutscenes were crazy. Cut to the game and your head and be like four pixels.

And you're like, Final Fantasy 7. Yeah. Yeah. And I just remember looking at the cutscenes on your head and be like four pixels and you're like I don't remember the seven. Yeah, yeah. And I just remember looking at the cut scenes on drive a tomb be like one day games will look as good as they do like way better than that. That's a like drive around in like a like court sir or something like that. It's like well this is clearer than actual real life. It makes me think of that old next generation game magazine cover, or it says unreal. Yes, this is an actual PC game switch. Oh, yeah. It's like, six polygons. Oh, my god. It's a real, yeah.

It's like, what is this? Like, that compared to, like, last of us two. It's just like, what do you want to cut out? Like, the way that we can, like, render the performances that we do in games, just nuts. Yeah, like, the one I always think about is when people do the comparison between the first toy story movie and Kingdom Hearts on the PlayStation 4, which has like the toy story characters in it.

Yeah, which is like the pre rendered Pixar footage, which took hours to render one frame versus the PS4, which is like in real time rendering all of this shit and it looks way better. What was the was the switch Mario Odyssey latest Mario game? Yeah. The everyone talked about Mario's mustache in that game had more like pixels than all of Mario 64. Like every every asset.

64. I want to That replaces a mustache with every texture from Mario 64. I want to see that mod It's like when people Compress an entire movie down to just the colors and they should like a color spectrum like do that of Mario 64 Make that is mustache This episode received podcasts is brought to you by Squarespace.

They're basically, this whole event basically was an undo of every bad decision that we've been bitching about for the last four or five years. It was a bad thing. Every single bad thing is like, why did they do that? They were like, and then they approach it like they're doing us a fucking favor. Look, your professional users have wanted dedicated hardware function keys. They're back now.

Why did you take them away? You guys, you need it. You needed an SD router on the side of your laptop. We had the stop 30 years ago. They had to take them away. Like 20 years old, they were giving back you. The professional users wanted HDMI port out of their laptop. Why did you just give us

Mags but you appreciate it more now mags safe is back and it charges faster it did before but you can still charge via usbc Hold up what what what what did the power cables turn into wise max? It's see. Oh, they said away turn it to why is Max? It's on. Oh, they said the way I have free. Stupid. It's fucking stupid. Especially because when you buy the fucking phone, they don't have the right cable.

You asked for it. You got it. That headphone jack. I'm just seeing this up. I like that they literally gave you everything you wanted and you're mad at them. Oh, come back. Cause they were trying to force this shit. Normally, they don't change.

But normally, they stay the close. They stay the close. And everyone else changes they fucking gave it they play no here's what it is is that it's someone stole Gus's bike five years ago and is bringing it back and saying I got you a bike I know you like writing bike look at this bike it is exactly the bike that you've been wanting back they released

a beta software update for testing that as soon as they in this most recent version of Safari, they changed the way tabs work and they're fucking shit now. They're fucking garbage. The day came out, I was texting Gavin nonstop, like showing him screenshots of what absolute trash use a party. Yes. Why? Yeah, Safari. Yeah. And Safari uses less power than Chrome. Oh, yeah, I remember that from when I used to own Apple. And this news, the company beta update, they undid all the tab changes. They're like, yeah, yeah, this sucks. It's pretty garbage. It looks like placeholder in

development. Shit. And like, if if you go now the way it works right now, if you go to a red website, your entire menu system changes red. Like the entire browser changes to the color of the background of the website you're visiting. And it's just like, can you turn that off? Me? I don't know. Yeah, why is it there? Why is it by default on option so sad is so sad absolute garbage So and I'm gonna spend $3,000 on a new laptop out of spy you're gonna spend I'm not buying it I'm not buying it you left you're gonna spend $3,000 of an SD card. No, I am I know you will I am keeping this laptop

This laptop is totally fine. I'm gonna use it until it fucking falls apart. How old is it? Four years old? No, okay. It's not brand new, but it's not like super old anything. Fine. What's the split of Mac and PC you work off of? You.

I'm like 50-50. Okay. What do you favor one over the other for what? I only have a Mac because I prefer speed ramping in final cut Okay, which I do all the time it's like a huge part of the edit But you like the way it works in final cut. So that's the really the only reason I'm on Mac Yeah, because in the rest because you're definitely gonna be gaming only on your PC Yeah, when you're doing do you do a a lot of PC game or do you prefer console?

No, I'm mostly PC. Really? You used to be someone I associate with console a lot. I am for work. Okay. Someone in chat who is this boat O M0015 says old man yells at I Cloud. Yeah. Let's end this episode. But you start a podcast. Yeah God fucking so good Can I tell you about my kids make a fun of me? Yes, please do They did this to me and I was like well, I have to tell Gus about this and I actually thought about you as well

I finally hit the point where my kids don't make fun of me Not an up-cruel way but enough in a way that they are doing because I'm old and don't get things now. They came in, I'm in my room working on my computer and they came in intentionally to do this. This was the reason they came in my room and they said, Dad, do you know how to dab? And I knew me that was being teed up to just fail. And I was just like, yes, I know how to dab.

And they're like, can you dab for us? And I was like, okay, I know how to dab. And they're like, can you dab for us? And I was like, okay, so I dabbed. And they just started busing up laughing because I did it wrong. Well, cool, and let's see it. I don't, it's, okay, here, it's just this, right there. I did that, that's all I did, or just like a little bit of that. And they were like, they just thought it was hilarious.

And I don't know what the right way to do it. I don't know what they think the right way to do it. But I didn't show you. But it was no, because they ran away, they ran away, giddy was delight. By loser. That they're loser, dad. Doesn't know how to. You know, just one of them's filming you for a talk. Yeah. I'm looking at what is the correct way to dad. I was just, yeah, you're on. Yeah. A visual guy to taking the perfect dab. Oh, no, this isn't the word the word dad just the word dad makes me mad like just and then the unless you're talking about drugs like I

don't know it's so like you're talking about here. Yeah, I don't I don't mind it. It just was I I think I was just mostly shocked that I you know you you have these moments as a parent you're like oh we're there now. I cannot wear them in thisate. Yeah, no matter what you if you did a perfect dab it still wouldn't have been I want to know what they were looking for now I don't know I'll be more of an angle I don't know like a Spoiler there was nothing I could have done to get it right because I'm 37 years old and I'm there's dad and me dabbing We'll be wrong no matter what did you have faucet no You should dab all the time around them now. Oh, I will be leaning

100% into being the dad that embarrasses them as much as possible because you don't realize Why parents do that until you are a parent put in that position where at that point in their age where you can do that You have now gone through more than a decade of dealing with their shit. And taking care of them to a degree, you've never taken care of another human your entire life. And especially if you're doing multiple kids,

and especially if you're a single parent who's doing it just on a, even crazier level, when you get to that point where you can now make their life miserable, but actually not do any damage to them. Like you're going to take advantage of it and you're going to make fun. You're going to embarrass them as much as possible because I don't care if I'm cool to their friends.

I'm going to just destroy their life at that point. Oh, my parents would like would totally like him bear. And I get now that why they would do it, but that my dad would get vicious about like one time you know you go over a friend's house to spend the night and like friend and his dad came to pick me up and right as we were walking out the door me and my friend and his dad my dad hollers hey Mike make sure he changes his underwear because he never does here and of of course, for my friend, that was just like red meat to a fucking wall. It was just, yeah. And he had to tell his older sister to his

wife, and I didn't need that. I didn't need that in my life. Oh, that's great. That's maybe the one thing I regret about not having kids is not being able to embarrass the hell out of them doing shit like that. You do your right. John's right that you have so much info on them. It's just you have just just files on them that you can pull up. And it it still doesn't make up for how much work. I've said this last time I was here, it was like as far as like COVID, like you see a parent in the street,

you give them $5 because if a parent made it through COVID, then you owe them something. It's just, there's an amount of work that goes into them that is like, it's, you are fresh as all hell, but you are constantly motivated to like take care of them and make sure they succeed even though you can be at points where you're like, I despise you. You have now reached the point where I despise you. I love you with my entire heart and life, but I despise you. This wasn't worth it. This wasn't worth it.

Yeah, this is like, I think brutal, it's fucking brutal. I don't think parents are honest enough about like how, I've said this since I got a baby. I was like, no parent has ever made it clear how hard it is to be a parent. Like we need to make that more normalized where you talk about how fucking difficult

is race kids. What was I watching? I was watching some news program. I was watching some news program the other day that was talking about how I forgot what the number was. I want to say like 13% of working adult men had the option to take paternity leave at wherever they worked.

And like that was the focus of the story. It was like, yeah, nice, you didn't have a very widespread paternity leave. And then almost like a footnote at the end of the story, they're like, yeah, compare that with 19% of women who have maternity leave where they work. I was like, wait, maybe we should be having, maybe we should be drawing this conversation out

a step further and be like, why isn't any parental leave more widespread and more prevalent every way? Why are both under 20? Yeah, like women have it easy. 19% of them get maternity, like wait, wait, wait, hold up. Something I've learned recently, especially through the pandemic and all that kind of stuff and after being divorced as long as I have.

And as a queer person, is that you realize that our entire entire what is expected of us as individuals in our society is based upon the inclination that you are going to be married with somebody and have a dual income house while you and will be having kids. And if you do, if you can't succeed in that, then you're fucked forever. As far as like like divorce or not having a normal like, you know, cis-heterocouple and that kind of thing. Well, it's funny to say that because the new story I was watching was specifically about Pete Buttigieg getting paternity leave, right? Yeah, it made fun of. So yeah, so people giving him shit for that. It was like, well, he hasn't you kid. I could have taken attorney leave. I couldn't.

We were, well, I like, like on a personal level, I couldn't. We were a solo income family. I'm fine. I see. Okay. And my job didn't provide it in in fullness. I could, I could do it, but I would have half pay. And we were like bills to bills. We were like empty air bank on every month anyway. So I was like, nope, couldn't take. I we adopted my youngest and then I went to, I took a weekend off and went back to work. Why is it so, like this country has terrible maternity leave in terms of like, it's almost like a decent

care of its citizens or people. My girlfriend literally works in public health and specializes in postnatal research analysis and it's just like her entire thing is like no we once the baby's born we don't this like our entire like uh legislative system doesn't care anymore like that's the entire legislative system is about caring and prior to that after that bye bye get in there grease those wheels of capitalism. Get out there. Spend money, get COVID, do it again.

Like someone, someone Chesa, I typed too slowly for how this podcast progresses. Still an apple. Nina Soros. Even if, yeah, even if people like don't do anything, you should take paternity lever just to take a break. Like, could you just need a break from the shock that your life is going through? Oh, yeah.

Like, it's just, and I assume never sleeping ever at any point. After that, no. Yeah, I mean, it's just nothing can prepare you for it, because especially those first eight months or where they don't sleep through the night and it's just up every two hours like it will dry like you will hallucinate.

Well that getting enough sleep you will like feel sort of psychotic like. Yes, not like no that's not like I make a joke about the stand up joke and I take it way too far but like the woman who drowns her kids in the tub like I get it. I have said that. I have said that. You actually you when you have a baby, I'd say most people's experience can be this way where you go, you have a baby and you're like, oh, that's how people get to that point. If you don't actually have the ability to actually like stop your own actions, you have no

impulse control and that kind of thing. And you're already, you know, psychotic, like you get where that mentality goes. Because like, hey, stop sleeping and have something scream at you for, let's say, four weeks in a row. Just do that and see where you are mentally. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Especially if you have like a, like a colloquy baby that is having a really hard time, like

being able to process their food and suit themselves. Like, that's what I had. My youngest was colloquy and just like had a horrible first two months of her life. I would sleep, sleep denial. Yeah. Well, you have a so tired that the crying didn't wake you up. That you know of, I guess. Um, to a degree, you eventually wake up no matter what, but uh, no, and we all

support him at a tiny house. So it's like when it went. It's a posse. Yeah, I'm saying like, it's next door to me. I just get to the point where it's not happened for many years, because I don't work on film sets for ridiculous hours anymore. But if I had really long days for, you know, more than five days back to back, alarms just wouldn't work.

Right. I'll just sleep through like 20 straight minutes of my long go-off to the point where people like banging on the front door, like that. That happened to me once, when was it? Is after we released episode a hundred of Red vs. Blue, we'd been up for 30 hours or something making them all. I went home, fell asleep, and I was so tired I couldn't hear my phone ring, the servers had crashed, and I needed to go restart them.

But nobody would get a hold of me because I was so I was passed out. Wow. Jeff had to drive to my house and bang on the windows of my bedroom to wake me up. I think that was there for that. For the, for the, yeah, I think you were made five different endings of the three endings. Yeah. If you remember, we didn't sleep for days.

Yeah. And then we came out and I was said, all right, that's done. Oh, shit. It's not working. So I think I went home, I got to sleep for like an hour and a half. Then I had to wake up and fix everything. I'll always just incorporate the alarm into my dreams.

So whatever. Yeah. Or there might be an alarm going off in my dreams when I'm still asleep. I'm just trying to get it to shut up. I am in fact that person who gets up from their alarm immediately doesn't hit snooze and gets out of bed.

Yeah, I don't, I hate snooze, but I think the snooze button is like, you're just fooling yourself. You're not getting anything out of it. So it's like when my alarm goes off, it's like, I'll turn it off. I might like get my phone and like look at news headlines or something for just like a minute or two and it's like, all right, time to get up. I'm like, get a part go. I'm like get my phone and like look at news headlines or something for just like a minute or two and it's like all right time to get up.

Nine minutes to go. That's some good sleep. Dude, I hadn't, I hadn't with my girlfriend, she often like 95% spend tonight at my house and that's just how we've done it. But I recently spent the night at her house on like a school night where we both had to get it for work and that kind of thing. And I experienced what it's like being in my girlfriend's house with the way she wakes up. She's not a morning person.

And I don't force you to be a morning person. In fact, as an introvert, I like the fact that she sleeps in. And so when I wake up early, I have my alone time in the morning. And then I wake her up when it's time to get up. And that's usually like our weekend routine, that kind of thing. But there's like a work day. And she still had to get it earlier than me. But she had two alarms, one on her phone,

and then one like on a clock and snoozed both of those alarms at least two or three times each. They were staggered. They were staggered. They were even the same. So like it was like, it's just like experiencing her snoozing at so many times and then finally getting up and that's what worked for I was like, this is madness. This is madness.

This is like, I'm up. It was like getting the nuclear codes. Yeah, you have to get to this like a multi step process. Yeah. Yeah, I feel like I used to, that's definitely, as I've gotten older, I enjoy waking up earlier and earlier more and more. Oh, yeah. It's like, you get so much shit done.

And then like at the end of the night, it's like, I used to still want to be up past midnight now. That's fine. I'll go to sleep. Oh, yeah. It's what I'm going to wake up early and do shit in the morning. I never understood, um, on multiple levels, I never understood this watching TV shows or movies. One, I didn't date and two, I was always an early to bed kind of person. And whenever people were like, and movies is like,

yeah, it's going to date, I'll pick you up at nine, and we'll go to dinner, and I'm like, what the fuck are you doing? Like, dinner's at like 5.30 all, like that's what that is. What do you mean you're picking up for that? What are you guys doing? I hate that, yeah, like if a standup show is like 10.30,

I'm like, I don't care if it's a Friday. That's fucking late. That's late. Starting my thing at that time. No, yeah, some of my neighbors had like a small neighborhood get together. The other night, I think it's like and they were like, yeah, well, I get together at 8.30 p.m. And I was like, no, the sun's down by then. Like, no. He know the sun's down by the No And it's like I like my neighbors, right, but there's like I'm not gonna like I'm home by the hand like yeah That's it my doors are locked. That's it. I'm done. I hate like I also hate any noise in my neighborhood of people having a good time Like yeah, like people behind and they were it was like Saturday

They were well within their right, you know, It was like 10 o'clock on a Saturday and they're just cheering or something around like in their backyard and I'm so Fucking man. What if they like I just wanted to like shoot shoot above the head Over yeah, what if they would loudly miserable there? What if that having a really bad actually? I would say hearing people argue would actually be like loud like fighting would actually be less irritating than loud Because then there's some drama going on my In college that we were over we lived off Riverside and my roommate and I and one guy and his girlfriend got into a fight Like we heard it, you know, like out in the courtyard. And I looked outside and there was this love note,

but it was like a 10 pay, you know, many pages shredded. And I was like, oh, that's weird. Like, I guess I had a bit and I just went to work. My roommate went out, got the love note and fucking assembled it. Like, oh no. Like, and it was like, I came back and he was like I don't remember what the drama is but he like you know totally like caught up like he was in on the

juicy details exactly like the North Vietnamese at the embassy like putting together the shredded paper so they could get the kill list yeah it was like he never mind that was terrible.

Um, I get up pretty early every day. And I have like half a day to myself.

It's a bit lonely sometimes. When you say you get up pretty early, like, what are you talking about? Uh, what depends on the day, uh. Every morning, every Monday, I get worked on by a leaf blower just before eight. So that's, it's a bad start to the week. I am tired on every RT podcast all the time because of one guy. You know you could just go to bed earlier on Sundays. That's easier said than done there. No, it is actually it's like it's quite pretty. It's like, ah, it's a week in the

night. No, no, no, some tally. My girlfriend invited me to go to actually meet some of her friends. So I've met like a ton of her friends with COVID. Um, and then she's like, they're having like a little get together and start at six on Sunday. You want to go? I was like, they're having like a little get together and it's gonna start at six on Sunday You want to go? I was like, yeah, I can go, but I know in my head I will be oh I will be heading home by eight is what I will be doing that that all that for that part I just take two hours. That is max. Yeah, what if you two hours of pause just don't have a really good time They had no fucking chance. I'm gonna

There ain't no No, there are no 37 years of history. No, what are you talking about? Like, like, like, it would have to take like, oh, Keanu Reeves showed up at the party. Okay, I'll hang out a little. And that's what it would take at this point. Because as a fucking anxious introvert, that is, that is more time that I even want. You have a signal that you give her when you're ready to go.

Yeah, she can see that I'm losing. She can see, she can see that I'm actually, I don't lose it. I just shut down. I stop being able to actually socially interact because it's a energy thing. You just have no manners after some point. No, I don't think I'm ever, I probably, actually I probably am overroot.

But I just like, you can see that like, eyes glazed over looking at a corner in the room. Just like thinking about who knows the fuck what's like. Oh, John's gone. Like we should take John home. So is that a more recent thing? Because I remember back in the day when we'd be out drinking late and I we'd have a wrestle in the sand to like we.

Little Woodress. It's I think it's always been a thing that I never fully recognized and like was honest to myself about. But I will say during that era, you were experiencing John who had just not gotten to do things my entire life and just like, and so there's a lot of FOMO build up. And so like going out with you guys was actually like a fulfillment for me of actually getting to experience some of that for quality that I'd never like, you know, first hand experience. And so yeah, I actually hold those memories in high regard in my mind of like,

those were really good times. But now as someone who just like, it's just even like understanding that you have anxiety and then understand that like what triggers your anxiety is a whole process and now I know, like, oh, that's why I feel that way. But that's where the next day I feel that way. I mean, I don't have a hard cough at two hours, but I do feel like if I'm feeling tired,

I do immediately start worrying that I'm just being a really boring boss to do not very funny around the people that I like. And then at that point, I'm just like, it's time to go. Self-consciousness kicks in. I dropped the mic. I'm like, all right, see y'all, still tomorrow. But that, yeah, but that took many years to realize. Yeah, and pair that with the fact. I'm like, all right, let's see y'all. Still tomorrow. But that, yeah, but that took many years to realize. Yeah, and pair that with the fact that I don't,

no, I've now come to terms with, like, I don't really like to drink. I just don't really like to drink. There's some stuff, like I like to have, like, one of the things I used to do pre-pandemic was me and Anna Holam would have little wine nights where I'd go over to her house and we drink wine and we'd just be caddy about stuff, it was fantastic.

And I like that, but like, those are special circumstances, but if you don't, like it sucks to be the person who's not drinking around a bunch of people who are like slowly drinking a little bit more and more and just like, oh, I hate everybody now. I'm sober and I hate everybody. You know, I feel like I've had some good sessions recently where everyone is just very lightly drinking.

It's just like a social sipping, but no one gets too drunk. Yes, and that's much easier to, I think, attain, if you're like in a private setting. Yeah. But if you're like, like going out to a bar, like I just, there's just so many variables, I'm just like, no. So what if you've been there two hours, you're on, you're on things that Gus walks in. Speed it up, let's go. Yeah.

Like, like he showed up two hours late to something, he just arrived two hours after his tie. I don't think us can do enough. I get to see Gus a lot now. We see each other. Yeah, we we we spent several hours today. Yeah, this is this is what's really gonna turn this party up somebody else for more. Yeah, somebody that I spent all day. Somebody that I'd like spent all day with A socially awkward person with nothing to talk about I will say Yeah, dab I will say that if you're gonna bring an example If if like someone I don't get to see very much that I do miss catching up with like someone like you or even Brian Where's up? I would like be like oh I want to go talk with them at least a little bit that kind of thing because like There are people still that I I'm like bummed that we know because of like how much we're all separated and just you know as Adults we separate our lives more and more. Yeah, I like I like to stay

I'm kind of the same way except I never had a period in my life like even in college I always wanted to go home like when we were going to a party or a fucking concert, I always got bored and I would rather be playing Super Nintendo. But that's something, but like I was very bad at self-realization and just being able to self-analyze myself. And so I always thought that I was jealous that I wasn't going to those things. And so whenever there's a chance I'd go to those things, but I didn't realize I'm like, why do I enjoy myself very much by about this point and why am I so fucking anxious and awkward the entire time? Oh, you have fucking social anxiety that's triggered by people and like censor overload.

That's like what's your problem is. It's like, oh, okay, cool, cool. I remember once going, I feel like New Year's is a great opportunity for just someone to have a house party or something. Yeah. But sometimes, well back when I lived in England, people were like, I just got clubbed in for New Year. I was always just like, I don't know,

I just don't wanna do that. I even back there I didn't wanna do that. But one time I went, we got there about eight, went out in Oxford, clubbed in and all that, and then it was, I was with Dan and he was like, all right, I booked the cab home for two. I was like, I was like, six hours left. You guys, you guys, like,

that's like, that's what we gonna do. That's what we gonna do. That's what we gonna do. He That's what we're gonna do. Yeah, he's like, well, you know, I can't leave too soon after the new year. I was like, oh, why are we here? Why are we here? We're here at eight or anything.

Yeah. I felt like, for the first time ever, I felt like I was watching the clock. Like a shit job that you don't like. Right. I felt like I was just doing that, but everyone happened a really good time around me. That's a long ass time.

It was too much. It was too much. It was an eternity. I'm so glad I'm not there right now. Shope 10, leave it one. I don't know. Ah, perfect. Not drinking does suck too if everybody else is. Oh yeah.

And everyone just seems like an idiot. And then there's like, and then there's the point. Yeah. And then there's instances where people are doing like recreational drugs and that kind of thing. And then that adds into like, you know, you're dealing with your friends either high or on some, it's like, and when you're sober and also anxious and socially awkward, like, this is hell, I'm in hell. Hello everybody. Absolutely worst is dealing with someone who's obviously had too much

of a drink and they're super drunk and they're trying to buy more alcohol. Yeah. And you're like trying to convince them this is a bad idea and they need to stop. Like, I don't know how many fucking times I've had to go through this with numerous people. The worst is I was once with someone who had had way too much of a drink and I was like, all right, we're gonna get you a hamburger, found like a burger place, sat him down,

give him a hamburger, like eat this, sober up a bit. Stop paying attention for a few minutes, it's like, where'd he go? He's gone. He de-spond. Oh shit, there's a grocery store across the street. Walk across the street of the grocery store. They're in the beer aisle. Yeah. They're like picking up a stick and like put that down. You can't, you're done. I don't know what the fuck you're trying to do. One of you like what is the flip the other way? Do you know the drug? What are you cooperative usually? I think yes.

I would say this is contrary to what people saw on camera, but even cheese master Gus, which is the drunkest I've ever seen. Oh, the drunkest I've ever met. You were still pretty self aware off camera. Oh, yeah. You were unhinging in front of the camera, I think for the sake of like, for the fun, entertainment and that kind of thing. And you weren't doing things that definitely sober

guys would never do. But I was still impressed at, you still had some of your facets. Couldn't drive or anything like that. I'm not saying like that. No, no, no. But like, you weren't just that belligerent. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm not terrible, I'm not one time. My, my ideal night, just like, just that belligerent. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, there's like, there's focus on something other than like having to just keep a conversation. And there's like some fun involved. Like, I love it. That's fantastic.

I will always be down for like, tabletop game night. So good. I must have told a story before about the drunk person with the hammer because everyone chat knows who it is. I must not have centered myself in the previous time. I saw something I'd never seen before the other day. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. I saw something I'd never seen before the other day. Like it was something I'd never considered. I was driving down a pretty busy street here in Austin. I was driving past a convenience store. And you know how convenience stores they have like

the ice machine or the freezer out in the front with like the bags of ice and you can go in your bike, like a bag of ice for a buck or whatever. I was driving down the street and I like I looked at this convenience store and I had to do a double take because the freezer was open and there was a dude sitting in it. It was like a homeless dude had opened it up and only his like the bottom half of his legs from his knees down in his head were sticking out of it but like his ass and his entire body and his arms like he got in the past.

Right, he was like plopped in there to cool down. Like, yes, yeah. I was like, one, I've never seen that. I was like, that's really weird. I had to do a double take two. Is that even that hot today? Like it was actually like a really pleasant day. I was like, why didn't I see this like in July or August

when it's like really brutally hot? Maybe, maybe maybe had like Curry Yeah, maybe like a no-no thing happening in his in his nether's and they're like that was soothing. I don't know I just know I'd never seen that I'd never even consider that Why do they keep ice outside? See it's the worst place to keep it. It does seem like a bad place to keep it It's like no one knows if you're anyone's doing anything and everything about that episode of the office We're Kevin just sticks his feet in the ice machine. You have no idea what's going on with that ice.

I'm like, hmm, remind me not to get ice from that storage anymore. Some I mentioned the death of the LAN party. Those were those were the funnest times. Like when that was the most I'd stay at play was LAN party. LAN party had go all night long. But that's because we're playing like Counter Strike and you only have to minimally communicate with each other. Yeah, but then we're playing video games, and we're also hopped up on Mountain Dew and...

Don't Oreos and that kind of thing. Can you imagine bringing that much shit anyway now? We like, stuff that would put. But it was also bigger than, as well, like talking about like a CRT monitor and the desktop, like, yeah, the T. Yeah. We used to do also like land parties for the original Halo,

like you take your Xbox and TV somewhere, at least that was easier, it wasn't as hard to wrangle all that stuff before there was like Xbox Live and Apple. And people thinking that was really convenient. Yeah, so just this thing, I gotta take easy. I mean, that's obviously why I love the achievement hunt is so much.

It's just land parties everywhere. Yeah, it's definitely, it's nice to have that coordinated because yeah That was like that was the best time to be able to Game with friends was on a local land that kind of thing because we really weren't like Doing multiplayer as much that was the multiplayer you really got to do because you would like it's like for counterstrike Like that's how you got a bunch of like games of your friends was doing it like that in a closed land That's my college that was the fun part of college for me was we were all in the land and so that was that was like team fortress and Counter-Strike days. I remember playing Doom for the

first time like setting up a land for that and me like this is fucking amazing. Well, I think it wasn't a port. I think it was an IPX SPX game. I think it used TCP. I could be wrong. So I don't know that there was like a dedicated port for it. How was just subnet? It was modulating. But I think that was like early on. That might be one of the first like LAN party capable games. I don't remember.

That was back in 94. It's a fucking long-ass time ago. Quite too is pretty tippy top. I still didn't think I've ever had a gaming experience as epic as Halo 1 catch the flag, but with like 4 Xboxes. The screaming from the other because we have within separate rooms. Magic. What magic time that was? That was great. Those games were the last fucking, if you play like capture the flag on Sidewinder, you'd be like, and if you had no time limit, every school would be like,

what's your football game? Like English football. Yeah. Oh my God, that was a school. Like, yeah, if anyone scored it all, it was amazing, everyone would lose their shit. Good times. This episode of the RCT Podcast brought to you by Movement. There's a movement taking the world by storm,

I saw something really strange on Reddit the other day. There was a video someone took like first person perspective from inside a train showing it going down the tracks and adjusting the field of view to different angles or to different values to show like how speed seemed relative to the field of view. The wider it was, it seemed like the faster train was going as it narrowed down,

seemed like the train was going slower. And one of the comments, someone said, this is just like in the first Mass Effect where the run button doesn't do anything, it just changes your FOV and you're actually moving at the same speed. And that's really what happened? It was like, is that true? And I didn't believe it. So I'm texting Gavin, I don't believe it. So I, I'm texting Gavin.

I don't believe it. It's like, I've got Mass Effect 1 remastered on my Xbox. So I'm going to fire it up and see what happens. So I actually recorded a quick video and I showed it with Gavin. And it does make a difference in remastered. I was like, oh, I'll be able to run like this. If I'm walking it, it was 19 seconds if I run it 16 seconds. It's really not by much. It's not like a really tiny increase in speed. But I,

I looked online on YouTube and I found other people who made similar videos, but in the original mass effect. And in their videos, it looks like it's the same fucking speed. They did it side-by-side running and walking. And it was the same. And so I was like, you just did, Brian, like my mind was blown. So was that an era? Like did they just have the value change for the FOV and then just forget to do the speed? I don't know.

What would be the reason for doing that? I don't know. That is a weird question to answer. Like it's funny that that's the case, but why is that the case? Cause somebody actually had to program that with intent. You don't just accidentally do that. Field of view does make a huge difference.

Like the the train video guests is talking about the zoomed in one. Yeah, looks so. So like a crawl. The wide one is like, that's like one of the games that you can really control a pretty wide FOV that I always think of is like Minecraft. You can go pretty wide with Minecraft.

And there's like those videos where people do like speed, parkour and Minecraft, but it's always super wide. So it looks like they're going pretty fast through. And if you were in a much smaller FOV, it probably wouldn't be as epic. But that's just, that's the opposite of when the camera's still, like a tight lens tracking a subject looks really fast. But if you put the really wide lens on there, it's going to be moving really slowly through the frame. In chat, Bernie H677 says they change the speed in the remaster. Interesting. So yeah, that was a little fix that in the original mass effect. No change. But yeah, but the thing I was most impressed about was I at least I did that quick test on my Xbox.

Like I didn't want to go down on my PC and fire it up and do capture. So the basic capture functions and a console are great. It's like I just used like the the share button on the controller just capture for 30 seconds. Found like a little spot like run here capture uploaded to my Xbox storage do walking upload and then it's like Got it on my laptop. You know cut it together in premiere took like two minutes to do. I was like This is fucking mind-blowing. I can't imagine like being younger playing the console, be like, oh, I wish I could show people this. No, like I exported it on my video camera. Yeah, I captured a 4K HDR with no extra hardware, like I'll just build it into the special. You still have to buy some special hot drives for that, didn't you? To capture the. Yeah. On the opposite aspect, we ever try to get a photo off of

a Nintendo Switch. Oh, God They kind of they they've got the thing where you can put it on your phone now. Oh, do they? A QR code. Yeah, but even that it's like like what are you talking about? It's classic Nintendo. It is a five-step Solution that didn't have to if you want to just flat out upload it right away as is to a social media thing They're like a good definitely. Yeah, But if you just want to take the photo off and like have it, nope, nope, nope, nope. Did you ever Gus like back in the day, like if you were proud that you beat something, like take a photo of the screen?

Yeah, that's what you got to do in Nintendo Power when you submit it, high scores or if you beat a game for the magazine, you would have to take a photo and they would give you even tips, like, make sure the flash isn't on. And when you take the photo, like they were ships for taking a photo and they would give you even tips like make sure the flash isn't on when you take the photo Like they were tips for taking a photo of your screen to submit. I think that's genuinely how Michael recorded his first reach win Yeah, I think so yeah camera on it just down on yeah, I think that's just him filming his TV

Do you think we should do a no time limit capture the flag between a h and stf? Oh, you guys are probably Wipe the floor with those I guess if it would depend on what the teams were we'd have to like balance the teams a little bit like like planes De-snap your games in very competitive like he'll go at it like we we did the the the Minecraft stream where we all play together and we actually competed pretty well on that We do sidewinder, a blood coach. Start with blood Gulch, finish in Sidewinder. Alright. It would be like an all day thing. We should do it. God. I think people would watch that. Oh yeah, totally. Absolutely. I am definitely the kind of person who's like, yes, I am in my late 30s and I've been playing video games since I was five years old. No, I'm not good at them yet

You know like that's that's me and we will miss the window. Yeah, yeah, my reflexes are not improving Next month is the 20th anniversary of the Halo one release So it's Halo anniversary anniversary No, it's Halo's anniversary. I guess it is also the Halo anniversary anniversary. Well, Halo anniversary was 10 years up. Yeah. Yes. The anniversary.

The anniversary. That's funny. Talking about a video game that blew my mind graphics wise, you talking about Halo, reminding me of a half-life two. The half-life two graphics with like how physics worked in that game and like things you can interact with and blow up. It's like that was mind blowing. They even had a like a demonstration video. I remember they put out where they were like showing you how the Gravgun can interact with a mattress and they were moving this mattress around. It was like

had physics and even float it on water and that was like we have Pete. Congratulations. Yeah, we did. We have done it. I remember when Metal Gear Solid 2 was being demoed before it first came out, they were like trying to highlight how powerful the PlayStation 2 was. And in the demos for that at E3, like, there was like in the background, there'd be like a glass

with a liquid and ice in it. And they'd like break the glass and be like, look, the ice cubes that are by themselves melt faster than the ice cubes that are together in this liquid. Like, we map all the thermal dynamics in this. And then I'm like, yeah, I mean, that's cool and all, but who the fuck cares about this? Like, it's a video game.

Like, you can spend so much time getting in the weeds on very small things in the grand scheme of things don't matter. Don't make a bet. Don't make a bet. But right, it was pretty smart. Here's a tech demo, I guess. Yeah, it's been 20 years in here. I still fucking remember that. It worked. Someone on I think maybe the gaming subreddit pointed out that like games 20 years

ago would use fog to lessen the field of distance view so that the game could render the stuff in silent hill. And Fog is what causes my gaming. Like a real game that causes my game to slow down in frame rate. If there's too much smoke particles around it. Yeah. Well, it's a game, the game's a kind of a long way. I remember the first game I remember playing a lot of,

like really sitting down like I'm gonna play, like a Saturday I was a little kid. I got nothing to do with it. I'm just gonna play this game all day long was Defender on the Atari 2600, which is like, I'm gonna play like a Saturday. I was a little kid. I got nothing to do today I'm just gonna play this game all day long was Defender on the Atari 2600 which is like that was not the answer I was expecting a 320 by 240 game That's just like little blocks moving around like you it's it's all imagination. It's like the side scroller shooter Right like yeah, you get to like shoot UFOs. We're trying to kidnap people from the ground

Then yeah to like rescue the people. Oh, I remember that if you play that now how many minutes would pass until you touch it off? I would play for about two seconds. Yeah, like fuck this. I'm glad I have to play this anymore That was apparently an 80-3 maybe 82 and it's this wild like like this was absolute Like you look at it today. It's like it's absolute shit Like no one would even play that like even like a retro game and now we're talking about even ice cubes that melt and stay together that was 20 years ago now our testicles yeah now we're talking about 4k games that you can export from your controller and

download it instead I've been playing a lot of death loot by the way you finally you talking about it the other week convinced me to try it out what do you think that game is great and infuriating at the same time. It took me, I don't know how many days it took me to figure out how to get through Fia's workshop and not have the reactor blow up. Oh, I only blew the rats at once. I blew the reactor like a fucking 12 times.

It made me want to scream every time it happened. I do that kind of thing too, because I just, and I realized my playing style is just brute-forsing my way through everything. And it's like excruciating to watch. Yeah. Like because it's just over and over. Yeah. The way I finally did it was I had to, I figured out where all of the people who raised the alarm were, and I would like race towards them and try to kill them first and then kill the other people working for how to actually like defuse it.

Yeah. Okay. Well, on my playthrough it was red, green, blue, yellow. Oh. I know because I just fucking did it yesterday. I like how in that game, whenever I'm playing and I get invaded, I'm always like, oh, this person's gonna be really, really good and they're gonna have all the other, and they're like, I'm fighting them is the epic battle. When I invade other people's games. I'm just trying not to kill myself by falling off the

roof like I'm just garbage at doing that for some reason. I am not successful as an invader. I got invaded the other day and like the music kept playing and I was like really scared and I couldn't find the person forever. Is it like Dark Souls when they come in and just try to kill you and you're well okay yeah and it was like and I don't know what they were doing But it's like you venture like they were just standing somewhere invisible And I was like maybe it was like animal crossing they just wanted to see your world And I finally killed it was like is that thing where I was trying to go into the reactor I got to find it before I go in there because if they attack me when I'm in there then it's gonna really fuck everything up

got to find it before I go in there because if they attack me when I'm in there, then it's going to really fuck everything up. Were you in the that portals? Hard one we did a little while ago. The portals community thing. I was called like portals remastered. Remastered something. It was someone had made more levels for the first portal game, but they had added a new mechanic where you there was a time mechanic. And so one portal gun would control where you go in

time either forward and backward. And so you had to deal. Yeah. It was fantastic. The other one would take off your clothes. Yes. That's how it works. But we did I I found it. I tested it and I was like this would be great. So I give it to Barben Chris to do a stream in it it because there's a stream that I wasn't able to be at and I was like you guys can do this Barb you fucking love portals when your favorite games ever found out she hasn't played portals one she's like portals to do to play to at least I think that's what I recall correctly but um so I had them do it so then we want to do a hard mode I was like

oh I got a good idea we'll do a speed run and Blaine and I will play, but we will have coaches help us try to get through as many levels as possible. My coach was Chris. And the editor did a great job of really cutting down how much frustration happened in the last level. But I like, I did, I did really really well for like the first like four levels and then we got to one where the time mechanic really fucked with my brain. You had to really use to figure out how to get to the spot.

And I couldn't get it. And having Chris Demaris try to explain it to you all the while was just making it worse. I, my brain broke. I feel like, why would you want to cut that out? We had to like, you know, you had to like actually make it, it makes sense. And, you know, you know, you cut out, like just dumb stuff.

And we also had to like, bar barb and blame also doing it. Anyways, it was the most mind boggling thing I've ever done. We're Chris trying to teach me the how to get through a portal. That doesn't seem like a good use of Chris. My favorite thing I think at this point still that we've ever done was when we did Stardew and I got to annoy Chris and Stardew. Oh, that was delight that was delightful that you could portals

that called portals the whole time yeah yeah I'm bad at video games have you met me we have a video that's coming out soon that we we watched the ending of earlier today with We have a Minecraft video. The Minecraft video. And it was, it's one of my favorite things that I think we've made in a long time. You say what it's about. We've done a video where I tried to teach Blaine and Gav, not Blaine and Gav,

Blaine and Gus, the other three, let her G word, how to use Tinkers' construct, just the basics, Tinkers' construct. And so just how to build a smelterie and make casts and make a weapon. And then we did another one where I said, okay, Blaine and Gus, teach Barb and Chris, how to use Tinkers Construct. So that was a fun mechanic, but that wasn't where the fun and the video came from. Like most things, it's like you have this goal

and you're working at this and then like out of left field, something happens. You're like, oh shit, now the video is about this instead. And it's like, you know what I'll compare it? The let's play, I'll compare it to uncut gems. That's the let's play is uncut gems. To many levels and I look for it. It's, I think we're calling it like Minecraft Blood and lava.

Little bit of a hint. Little bit of a hint of what. Yeah, it's pretty good. And there's you can full in it, right? That's part of it. Yeah, we we learned like that you can do stuff with blood. So that's part of it. Me and Blaine starts just fucking around with blood stuff. Yeah. And there's some genuine shock and terror. It like, to the point where like, I think subconsciously people were like moving their mouths around like, like, you know, in fear of what they were seeing.

It's pretty great. I'm excited to put it out there. I like our Minecraft stuff. I wish we could do so we need to coordinate I We I need to coordinate with Sarah to do it like it's my job like I coordinate this shit like I know what it makes This stuff happen. I need to coordinate with Sarah to do some more like stuff with a H We're actually gonna be doing a thing with the animation boys in a couple weeks. We're there We're gonna they're gonna I they wanted to like build a bunch of gains for us to play in their island and we're going to do a field day on animation island. I want to do an update to a hard mode that we did a couple of months ago and I want to try to invite some Achima 100 people in GTA to do an updated version of that.

Where we did a race but you had to drive safely and any anytime you got into a crash you have to get out and change cars And it's like there were there are all these rules Maybe it a cop car you got to take the cop car or like if you I hated it like if you did this thing get to get into two different cars And then you could go how far we haven't to get like from the far north of the island to the airport So I want to do an updated version with a cheema hunter. We have to do laps around all of the All of the island you guys at a che hunter who we have to do laps around all of the all of the island. You guys at a cheater. I'm who's it's Matt who doesn't you guys always joke he doesn't test things before he has you guys do it, right?

Yeah, that's the joke. I see him. He does. Otherwise, we wouldn't be hold that from make the video. Blaine is our version of that where he actually doesn't test them. I keep telling him to test them. And we did a GTA. We recorded something in GTA.

We're devoting all of November for a squad team force content to D&D-like content for sticky dragon. So everything is called Role Vembre. And we're going to be doing that for that whole month. And so we recorded something. And I told Blaine, I was like, hey, make something happen in month. And so we recorded something and I told Blaine was like, hey, make something happen in GTA. And so we did it. And there was a mechanic in it that he fucking thought that we could do. He's like, he's like, I'm positive you can do this in GTA. You can't

fucking do in a GTA. And he did not test it at all. But everyone was that in the game. He came up with multiple options. Like, if this doesn't work, we'll do this. Like, oh, this, we went through the entire list and none of them worked. And eventually I'm like, all right, let's just do this other thing. It was one of those things where... The flow chart just left you there. It was one of those things where we were trying to accomplish the first task, the way he wanted to do it. We found out you can't flat out do it.

And so then we're like, okay, we'll just, in the edit, we'll just cut all of that out and we'll just say, oh, we're doing this one instead because we actually use dice to determine we were doing. Like, oh, we're just going to roll dice and do this instead. But then what happened again? It was just like, how many times do we reset this? Yeah, we've got to do those to the point where it's like, well, we've been here an hour. Yeah, yeah. So we'll just release.

And let's fail. Yeah, that's what it is. And that's what the video is. We don't like to do it, but it does have to happen sometimes when nothing got made Because you'd say it's it's time put in like a lot of people. Yeah, it's time times You know seven people sometimes and that's our that's our resource now at this point is just people's time Like that's that's especially when you're like living in games that you already own There's no other resources to gather. It's like, it's just time.

So when it's like, it's all wasted by everybody. But he's still determined that he thinks that this first thing that we wanted to do is possible. Him and I are going to record tomorrow in GTA and just spend an hour trying to accomplish this. It's impossible. I actually, I actually googled it. It actually is. It actually is impossible. He's still determined.

He thinks that you know it's impossible. The what you know it's impossible now. Getting okay, I whisper it together. Okay. It's but it's the way he wants to do it. It's the game. This next you have a mechanic for it. Have sex with the prostate. Have sex with the rest of the rest. No, that's possible in GTA. That's impossible, right? have sex with the rest of it. No, that's possible in GTA. That's impossible, right? Can you think like he thought there was actually an in game mechanic. Like he thought there was an in game mechanic to be able to do this thing. Oh, the hot coffee mod. No, they catch that out. We got a lot of trouble for that. But it's kind of like, um,

all right, we did a massive explosion, like who can make the biggest explosion in video games thing? And I thought, oh, I'm gonna get a Titan in GTA. I'm gonna get a car, cover it in C4, drive it into the Titan, and then cover the Titan in C4, and then do that. I didn't know they patched out that you can't get into the back of a Titan anymore.

And so I bought the Titan, and you can't, and you can't actually break the back of a Titan anymore. And so I bought the Titan and you can't actually break open the hatch behind it anymore. Yeah, you can. Can you? I could not. You have to open it in the back menu in the vehicle menu. Is it? Maybe that's what it was called a door. I tried to figure it out at the time of whatever the patch, what I was at.

Because maybe it was a point where that was an possibility. I was googling furiously trying to figure it out and I could not. No one was saying that and I would imagine people would say that immediately. Yeah, that's been a while since I've done it. I don't know, I'm not the ones to talk. I've been playing GTA 5 for eight years. I still have no idea how to do most of the shit. Like we did a video that just came out today where it's take a picture of something with the phone camera and show it to Trevor and none of us knew how to like look at your photos. That's pretty simple, right?

Yeah, where do you go? I think it's in the summer in the menu. It's not, I don't think it's in the phone, which is where we're all looking. It's like, I should know how to do this fun out. I'll say this about GTA. It's one of the most unintuitive games ever as far as controls go.

And all the content just stacks on top of the shitty mess they put in at the beginning. So it's just like, where do you even go for anything? Like you have to even physically go to places in the game to start some things. It's like, do I own the building that starts this? I have no idea. It's like, I need a flowchop for it. The worst for me is when I go down in my garage and the car wants not there. I'm like, where is it? Do I have to go to the impound lot? Where's the fucking impound lot again? How do I go through this process? Like if my car is not

there and I can't insurance it like, oh god damn it. How about whenever I loaded all my shit is back to where it was at the beginning? Right. Escape is a why we just go back with that? I love the fact that to to load a private session in online, you have to load into story mode of GTA first, wait for that whole thing to load, and then you can create a private session for GTA Online. If you go into GTA Online, there is no option to jump to a private server. Yeah, I still don't know how to do it. Like in John's not there, I'm like, I don't know, I don't remember how to do this. Just playing with public people today. Here's the thing though, is that why would they fix all that?

It's working for them. Like they're still making money, I assume, off of the sea. It's the most successful end-to-tatame at products of all time, I think. It's kind of like Apple giving you your keyboard back and they don't really care if you're happy about that. You don't do it as a favor. Yeah, yeah.

Because they don't need to because they've got all the money. I already bought the shitty laptop. I'm not buying the good one. So who gets mugged in your career? I don't think we've really had a problem with that. I was doing a ton to somebody. I do it a lot, I think, to blame it only because I'm the one who's played it the longest. And so I've knew about those kind of features to be able to do that kind of stuff. And I have like, you know, like GTA Online, you have to like get to a certain level of experience to actually even access certain things.

Like Barbara, because she just doesn't play it, she still can't call Lester to get one. I still can't call Lester. Yeah. Which is a problem. Yeah. Which is a real problem because you you look at a bird wrong in that game and the cops are like, I get them. I can't call Lester, but I spent real world money to get a bunch of in-game money. So I've got like all the ridiculous things. He has like a blimp and He has the that giant like laser gun. He has that. Yeah, but he can't get his wanted level I can I can use all the all the guns to get a wanted level. I'm like all right I'll just I'm just like all right. I'll send him kill. I just I'll just die and they'll start over Well, yeah, the cops are like this dude has a laser. They're not just gonna let you go

And when you say it's just time they get spent when you play the game, but sometimes there's been times where like a DLC vehicle will come out. It'll be like 8 million in game books. So we all buy money with real money. Yeah. And by the time the video started, we've spent like $600. Yeah. I'm all getting the same. Yeah. I just think we can make one video. I've looked at like some of your videos of XF and I'm just like watch that I'm like how much did this cost for everybody to have because you idiots are not playing enough to like in-game or in that money

God no, I don't know how you would we did Criminal masterminds challenge in the high so we all did earn a genuine 10 million I think from that But all the other money has just been what we need to make the video now, so we have to buy them. Like, uh, one of the biggest big updates was the submarine. Yeah. And you guys had... That was a big boat one, I think. Jesus Christ, how many of you had submarines? I think we had at least four or five.

And you did it just get the base. You didn't get the base one. You got little upgrades. Well, we had to have the missiles with the camera zone, so we can make the video where we were. Wasn't like, uh, the helipad also like extra or something? I don't know, but it's sickening. It's weird. It's weird to look at a video game. It's if it's a movie and be like,

this is a big budget scene. It is. It is. It is. You know that real money's been spent. Because that's part of what you guys have to do. You guys have to have the submarine. You have to have the Batman car with the rocket.

Otherwise, we're relying on something that Matt didn't test. Just kidding Matt. I love you Matt. Speaking of real money, Twitter rolled out that tip jar feature. You can enable... Oh it's actually out. Yeah, a tip jar on your profile.

People can tip you money and they have like all these different options that you can enable. And I got notified that the tip jar was available by Mr. Brian Garrow there who tweeted about it. You really tweeted it, thank you. Yeah, I was like, I didn't lead to him anything, but I gave you a buck. You did.

I was like, I'll give Brian some Twitter money. I was like, I was just because I was like, I think it's such a dumb feature. I was like, it is the like tipping somebody for a fucking twit or the and the other thing they have like your preferred followers or people who have to like pay to subscribe to you on Twitter. Yeah. And I don't know if it's like you give them something extra or whatever,

but I don't know what that would possibly be. Twitter is the worst for like, yeah, why would like any kind of monetization on it just feels like the dumbest thing? I would love it if the tipping cultures from different countries also applied. Like, here tipping is massive for almost everything. There are some countries where it's like bit of an insult to get a tip because like, you know, I get paid enough, you can have this tip back. It'd be funny if like those people's Profiles that were just like giving back the tips like not all just returning it back. Yeah. This is an insult to me in my tweet Yeah, this was my tweet. This was a bad tweet. You should not have paid for this Which is every tweet. That's a spoiler every tweet is a bad tweet

It was it every time you tweet you have made a mistake. They're all awful. Right. It's never a good idea. Yeah But every time you tweet, you have made a mistake. They're all awful. Right, it's never a good idea. Yeah. Yeah, it's just funny watching them try to scramble to figure out what their business model is. They've definitely gotten heavier with the ads that feel slight.

Everyone and answer. Promoted, yeah. Yeah, the promoted stuff. I use Tweetbot and you don't see any of that. So I pay a different company for a Twitter app. So I don't have to see the ads on Twitter. I think I pay a yearly subscription for the ad like five bucks or something. Twitter switches up the API. They already have.

It's already kind of fucked. Yeah. But it's still better than using the I do have to use the actual Twitter app for some things like polls don't work on tweet bot. Oh, okay. So, or, but a lot of most of the other things do work But polls are like the one thing man who gives a fuck and care about right not a big deal not a deal breaker Somebody when I don't know if that's just because of your retweet or if it was because of my initial tweet to give me a tip

Somebody did tip me 50 bucks. Mm-hmm and I'm extender. Yeah, it was so out there like A few one dollars and then a fucking 50 down and I felt bad and I was yeah, it was so out there like a few one dollar to and then a fucking 50 And I felt bad like I was I let it you don't have to give me 50 fucking Yeah, yeah But I took it I mean I didn't say that I took it. I thought one of the weird things I thought it was you can tip in Bitcoin Like one of the things you can enable is you can put like your Bitcoin wallet address in there for people

Totally geez, all right if you want to take me 50 Bitcoin. I'll take you Take a three million dollar Twitter Twitter tip by love GTA submarines with that I'll praise your Twitter account Brian a little bit in that you're actually someone on there who's still going on there to like Make snide jokes and funny commentary and that kind of thing. I do I do feel like My entire feed is now just me waiting through everyone telling me the projects they're doing yeah And something they just released which I get it like you're trying to like promote we do the same thing Yeah, we you have to like let people know the stuff you're doing but I'm speaking of which Family Shatters

There it is wow Premier in October 20th. That's this way. See if you're watching this on YouTube. You can go watch family Shatters right now Sorry, John. What were you saying about promoting your own stuff? I'm gonna go pee real quick. I have to pee. I'll be right back. Good promote them. I have comic friends though who yeah, I like all day tweet is just to plug their shows and it's like it's like nobody's gonna follow you because of that. Yeah. Even like bands that I really like or if it's just like we'll be in Seattle. I feel guilty about that. I feel like sometimes I promote too much different stuff. No, I don't think so. Yeah, but that's why I try to keep a balance on it.

I try to also tweet other bullshit nonsense and try to balance it out. Just because we have so many different things that we work on here that we know we're trying to promote.

I don't know if that was a Twitter poster like a face But you know somebody's screenshot that's successful mocty though. Yeah, no, no, I want come. I mean domino I don't I can't remember the last time I ate a domino's pizza I was probably when we were still down at the studio down south before a podcast or something. Oh, yeah

We used to get food. Yeah back in the pre-COVID days. Yeah. We're gonna yell at somebody's right there. Oh, you hiding behind the able there? Yeah, there's food things. Food coming soon. Hmm. Hi.

Yeah. I saw a TV commercial the other day. You try my, I'll pause for it. So I saw a TV commercial the other day. Uh, if you've got, you should have the perfect time, John. For the dumbest app ever. I'll pause for it. So I saw a TV commercial the other day. If you've got, you should have the perfect time, John, for the dumbest app ever. Like I was like, there are tons of dumb phone apps. I was like, this one takes,

because I don't remember what it's called, which is probably good. I'm not gonna say the fucking name TikTok, but it was an app that let you buy lottery tickets from your phone. And then, they would scan the lottery ticket so you can see an image of it from your phone and then oh no they would scan the lottery ticket so you can see an image of it on your phone so I think I think it's a way you buy air quotes a lottery ticket on your phone that someone

physically goes and buys it then scans it in and shows you so you don't ever actually hold the ticket which makes me think if you win why don't they just fucking keep the ticket? Yeah, also I allow you as I guess, with the $24 million you just want to keep the money somehow. Also they sell lottery tickets everywhere, at least in tech everywhere,

like I could probably walk to several convenience stores for more I live and buy a lottery ticket in like five minutes. Maybe if you live like on the middle of nowhere. Is there actually no way to just, like a phone digitally participate in the lottery? Not without this app, I don't think so. I have never. Untowel now.

You know, a picture of a real love. Yeah, that's when I laughed out loud when they got to that part of the commercial where they're showing in the app, like you get to see an actual image image of you real lottery ticket like wha Is it guys thung That's like on the level of like people buying NFTs. That's what that is. Yeah, that lottery ticket is your NFT. Yeah That's it's it's so I know and you know that company's gonna get sold for like

It's so, and you know that company's gonna get sold for like $700 million or something. Like, they're gonna get some huge buyout. Somebody was mad that other people were posting their NFT that they had paid. It was like, I don't know, a monkey and sunglasses or something, and somebody said, that's like screenshotting yourself in front of somebody else's Lambo.

And then somebody responded, actually, it's like stealing their Lambergeini and getting away and never getting caught. Yeah, considering how much money people can spend on that. Yeah, but also the victim of the theft still has their Lambergeini. You can't right click on a Lambergeini and right and click on save a copy as it doesn't work that way But an NFT you can yes, and if you can you wouldn't steal a Lamborghini, would you? Yes, if I could just if it was that easy. Yes, absolutely so everything everything's just so dumb. Yeah, I hate it all What the hell happened

Oh I hate it all. What the hell happened? Oh, we lost chat. Yeah, we got to log in to the computer there. What else? Oh, we don't have much time. I saw something the other day that just really made me start thinking. I feel like I'm a fairly confident person. that just really made me start thinking, I feel like I'm a fairly confident person. Or at least, like, yeah, like I try to portray myself as being like a really confident person, but there's a level of confidence I will never have,

and that is the confidence of someone who takes their dog to the fucking grocery store. Do you all ever see this? Like, when did this become okay? Everywhere. Like, I'm a dog person, like non-helped dog. Right. Like a pomegranian in the fucking vassians. I don't know the last time I went to

H.E.B. and didn't see a dog in the bathroom, so the store. And service dogs fine. Of course. If you need a service right, I'm talking about like a pet. I'm talking about like your purse hit a bit in the most support You know, support, pulmonary. No. OK.

No, this does not. Cassie says no. These dogs don't have vests. These dogs, I look like they want a bite me. Guys, is scared? Are we just OK with this now? The dog's not investigating a crime. It's not looking like dogs.

Dogs feed anywhere. Everywhere. And these people with these dogs don't look like they give a fuck. So is it because is it a hygiene issue for you? Yeah, that's a hygiene issue for the health department That's why they're not supposed to be allowed to spin on the lettuce and shit. Yeah, yeah, they'll totally do that unpackaged goods. Yeah, absolutely disgusting. Yeah I feel like it's disgusting, but it's no more disgusting than

I feel like it's disgusting, but it's no more disgusting than Some old bloke just rummaging through the onions with his bad hands. Sure. They are like package. I guess that's a good point Some persons toddler just rolling along and just touching everything. Yeah It's a little a big disgusting place wash your veg wash your head. Yeah It's that's it. That's it Some people who don't do that like I was at Costco a couple of weeks ago and like this older man and woman were like putting, they bought like fruit and vegetables. They were like putting it in their trunk.

And like, I saw the woman grab the strawberries, you know, from the man who was putting on the trunk, she's like, oh, I'm gonna eat some of these. And she gets into the passenger seat of the car and it's like, opens up the container and starts eating them. Do you know how fucking dirty that is? I had bought strawberries that same day from that same Costco too. I took a home in washroom and the water was like brown from all the dirt that's all the nutrients. That's all the nutrients. You just washed

it away. I just got your fruit. It's so much dirt in there. That's like fiber. That's fiber for you. It's still here. It Just got them too bad. All right That's funny. That's you yeah, you need to wash Brian seriously don't really Look how well Brian turned out look at Brian look a Brian He's not gonna cure you whatever just gets the dirt off at least And you'll just give it a rinse really doing nothing for the gems I do a special rinse I use oh you got the fruit wash spray
