Hello everyone welcome to the Reth Podcast. I'm Gus.

And Rooster Teeth this week is 19 years old.
We did, oh yeah, poppers.
The poppers.
Happy birthday. Happy birthday. Happy birthday. Woo! We did, oh yeah, poppers. The poppers!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday!
And guess what?
No tornado this week.
Yay!
Yay!
Oh, fell on me.
It's just carcidogens.
Ow, that one hurt.
Why did I do that wrong?
We've got a cake.
What?
We've got a birthday cake.
I don't even care.
Eric is the go.
The spring colds have brought us a birthday cake. Oh, go- It's a great cool. It's a birthday cake.
Well Eric. Thank you Eric. Wow.
Wow. It doesn't say happy birthday on it.
It just has sprinkles.
Oh, birthday sprinkles.
Eric cut it with your hand knife.
Oh, I got it.
I got it.
Oh, I really thought you were trolling us and didn't give us
plates or knives or for any of that.
No, no, I've got it all.
I've got you covered. You did.
You did. You just got to talk though,
because I got to do this.
Hi, so Carrie, you're on again. I am. talk though because I gotta do this. Hi. Oh, so Carrie you're on again
I am I get a real shot this time
Carrie Carrie hashtag carry on my wayward Carrie. So what we what were you saying last week?
You think I even remember what I had for breakfast. Yeah, I'm
Is that normal?
Remember like what you had like the same day. I think for people who
normal. The bread people in that remember like what you had like the same day. I think for people who
like do what you do and have to go so much at all points in time, it's hard to keep track. I got like a small steak knife. I gave you weird talk about it. Talk about it. There's a spatula. I got
a huge ass spatula. I got a file. I told you I couldn't find the knife. I said there was
a big knife so I got you a regular knife. Wait, spatula. Wait, wait, do we not own a bigger knife or is there an unaccounted knife?
Are you cutting from once? That's the most insane way I think maybe you can cut a case.
I'm a middle. I'm a centa cutter. A hundred percent, a setter cutter.
Did you really just do that? You cut that for real?
Was that for a joke or not? Do we have to have just what is on everything?
I cut across and then I'm gonna cut it down into slices.
You see, you can't do it like a pizza.
It's a slices.
Do you not serve cake in slices?
Well, you're making it see what you're gonna do
in big slice like watermelon.
What you usually do is you go in the middle
with the knife and cut.
You're Gavin, you fucking cut the cake.
Because what you've done there, Gus,
is I would have gone from here, right?
Let's show me.
There.
And now what you've done, you've exposed all this
to the air.
You're gonna serve all of that.
You're not, you're not.
There's four of us and how many people behind the camera,
there's like another six back there.
It's a big cake.
This is how it is.
This is how it is.
What you're doing is big, long slices.
You might as well do this.
No, but you can make slices out of mine.
I think I won. I'll take that one.
Oh my god.
Hey Gus, have a slice of cake.
That's not what I was doing. I'm gonna have a slice of
the way I would have made it.
He's gonna make it like a pizza.
Yes.
Like you cut down the middle and then you go like an X across.
Yes. And then you go, do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do The piece of smoke for Barbara. The piece of cake that I'm holding is in some ways
one of the most unique slices of cake to ever exist.
That's the one you're off to, yeah,
because you got more icing.
Can you make an NFT out of it?
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
No comment.
Oh, careful.
Use that big, oh, that's a double.
Oh, the piece of my suitcase.
Whoa.
Shh.
I can't.
You're not really just watching,
nobody wants a fucking hell.
There's only one spatula. What do you want from me? Happy anniversary. I don't know. You don't really just watch, you know, but you watch the fucking hell.
There's only one spatula.
What do you want from me?
Happy anniversary.
It would be too many cooks in the kitchen, guys.
We're trying to stay out of it.
Yeah, it's your fucking cake.
The thanks I didn't like cake.
I hate everyone.
Yeah, I'm a little forkies.
Hey.
Thank you.
Happy anniversary.
Happy anniversary.
Oh, just anyone else want cake?
I'll cut your fucked up slice of parents. It'll be good by the end of the podcast. Happy anniversary. Happy anniversary. Oh, just anyone else want cake? No.
I'll cut you a fuck up slice of paper.
It'll be good by the end of the podcast.
You know this?
It's not being birthday.
It's 19 years.
It's still me doing the work and other people bitching about it.
19 fucking years.
How about fucking knife doing yourself in a way that doesn't deform the cake?
Almost exactly how my 12th birthday went.
Oh.
Who would play a toss of this?
Actually, this is how my 20th birthday went,
because I was working in a race chief when I was 20.
Oh, yeah.
Was the parents yelling?
Yeah, Guster's just yelling at me a different time in my life.
And how old are you now, Carrie?
I'm 24.
I'm 30. I'm 30. I'm 18, I'm 30. And your old are you now, Kerry? I'm 24. I'm 30.
I'm 30.
I'm 18, I'm 30.
And your birthday's coming up, right?
Yeah.
May, first.
First.
May the first be with you.
Oh, the old plastic Star Trek thing.
Yeah.
Blockjab in chat says you committed a cake crime, Gavin.
That's true.
That was a horrendous cut.
But I was still delicious, though.
This actually is very good cake.
It is. I'll come. Thank you for the food. Oh, yeah delicious though. This actually is very good cake. Hey, is you eating the horrendous?
Eric you want a slice?
What kind you are? There's a precut slice right there. Oh, sorry, not shark. I mean, no, I'm like
I'm normally better than that all right. All right. Let's see here. Okay.
Pretty good. Yeah, he's cutting in the middle of the cake. All right. All right. Let's see here. Okay.
Pretty good.
Yeah.
He's cutting in the middle of the cake.
He's cutting a circle.
No, it's squared out pretty evenly.
It's kind of like a cylindrical piece.
Actually, that's a good piece.
You wouldn't know.
You wouldn't know any difference.
Thanks, man.
Hey, good dude.
Happy birthday. Hang on. Hey good dude happy birthday
Yeah, you want to make sure that for memories. I'll be honest that what's out surprisingly well that was a
Brain what are you doing you're documenting?
And then for your birthday you can buy yourself a body pillow
There it is we talked about it last week and showed it here it is huh in reality. It's Gavin's size
It's Gavin's size. It's Gavin's size
Gavin do you know what that is?
It's okay. No, okay
Why why is it so Ruby?

There's only one correct answer. Yeah, this one. Yeah, this one you can obviously. Yeah, thank you. Okay. Good. Yeah, definitely
Would you use it to support your rest or any other part of your body?
All pots, okay, you heard it here. I also saved this part for the podcast. Oh, you're gonna We're done better than cake. It's the peely of the back. I don't know if it'll pick it now so satisfying
No one's out
Nice I heard it. So is it sticky? It's like well, it's a mouse pad because if not it's gonna be on the sides.
Nice. So is it sticky?
It's like, well, it's a mouse pad.
Because if not, it's gonna be. Aaaaa place while you're using it. Using. Correct.
She's a nice.
I can see Mike now with our new setup.
I can see you straight to Mike over here.
Oh, yeah, the crew loved that.
We're in our new space that we were supposed to debut last week, but we got tornadoed out.
Oh, how's your bathroom?
It was good.
Not the best place for a podcast.
I'll be right in there.
50 minutes?
Yeah.
I went in there because I feel like
mag being from here is used to sort of be the occasional tornado warning.
But for this one, it was like, this one isn't a watch.
This one's a warning.
I think that's a hide. So it's like, this one happened.
Yeah, and probably shouldn't sit in my office.
Yeah, that's pretty scary.
Just doing the podcast.
Yeah, because we were talking, I had like,
the weather with like the live stream with the weather person.
And like they're like, oh, there's a tornado in Round Rock
and they cut to the traffic camera.
And then I think that's what Eric was like.
Yeah, that's it.
Let's go and call this one.
I think once the also the warning alarm started going off on all of our phones simultaneously,
we were like, this is probably a good sign.
I just started running around the house picking up cats and joking them in the bathroom.
We were all just in that together.
I have a closet under my stairs.
I just like ripped off my junk out and was like, I guess if I got it, I'll just hang out here
for a little bit. That's where I sat too.
Yeah, closet.
Call I never went actually. Oh, yeah. Oh, I'll just hang out here for a little bit. That's where I sat too. Yeah.
I thought I'd never went in there.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I sat in there.
No.
I saw the war.
I was just listening to the news and they were like, oh, it's here.
And I looked at where it was like, I'm fine.
Yeah.
It was also going a certain direction.
So if you weren't in that pathway, you're probably okay.
I'm glad we made the call that we did.
But also, I didn't just play the Xbox the whole night.
Yeah. It was fine.
Yeah, and if you weren't like directly in that path then it was just like a thunderstorm.
Yeah, it was, I mean this is not really obviously a tornado scare, the shit out of me.
They're scary.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't like things I can't fight back against.
Just blow the other way.
I've tried.
I decided to watch, have you guys ever seen the day after tomorrow? Yes.
That's why you're sure with Dennis Quaid and Jill.
Did you?
I watched the day after and I was like, I'm glad I'm watching this after, not before.
You watched the day after, they have to, they have to, they're the same.
That's the one with like the frozen hurricanes, right? Is that what the, the weather phenomenon is? They have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, they have to, It's super tornado, it just demolishes the entire city. Don't you just hate it when that happens? Don't you just hate it.
It's super tornado.
It's scary.
It's delicious cake.
It's actually very good cake.
It is.
So last week was kind of a fucked up week.
Because we obviously, we did the podcast on Monday and we had to cut it short and we couldn't do a post show.
Then the next day we were supposed to do a shoot.
Oh God, yeah.
That also got canned.
And then, so we had to repurpose it into something else.
It was a bad week for production.
Yes, but we still got some stuff done.
We still got some stuff done.
We weren't able to do what we wanted to do, which was, which really sucked.
We're trying to make an anniversary short.
Which we might try to repurpose for RTX.
Okay, that'd be good.
And say there's always next year.
Next year's our 20th anniversary.
We're just gonna go a lot of weed.
What, go on?
This is for 20.
Just the 20th though.
Well, you know, I
Assumed it happened at the fourth one. I just wasn't there
No, we're too busy. We had no time the fourth 2007. I don't think I was sleeping that year
They're gonna be the ones it by next year. I was that was an episode a hundred. Oh, yeah, we're definitely not sleeping
Well, I slept up upright a little bit. It was terrible
We're not sleeping now. Well, I slept up right a little bit.
It was terrible.
Yeah.
So it was, it was, I made the weed joke.
That's what you were thinking about.
Bad, bad, bad week for production,
but we're gonna do it right now.
But I saw on, I guess there were a lot of events
in Austin this weekend.
It's like people planned events in Austin
for this time of year or October,
like before it gets unburbly hot or after,
like once it's starting to cool down at the end of October.
So this past weekend there was a golf tournament,
a NASCAR race and the Texas Relays
were all happening in Austin this weekend.
Oh my God.
So this morning the airport was a mess.
The-
Were you there?
No, I saw people online posting pictures
about how bad it was.
Can we show one?
Do we have one cute up?
This was posted by someone on Twitter,
what was his username?
That Joey Dillon.
What the fuck?
These are people abandoning the rental cars
because the line to return them is so long it's going out.
Like see, way the distance on the left from the apple is the parking structure. That is still yeah half a mouth on the airport
Yeah, they're just leaving their cars there because it's taking too long the security line went outside
Wrap down the building been turned around and came back in front of the airport again. I genuinely unless I had something
I would just stay for like another day. The go home. Never mind.
It was like that on Sunday also.
I had a friend who flew out on Sunday
and he missed his flight at like 6.45 a.m.
and they had to rebook him on like an 8.30 flight to Dallas.
Oh my god.
Like to get to like connect to get to an actual flight
because he said the line was in the airport
around the whole airport outside of the airport,
back inside the airport, and then you finally like,
what, he's like, it was the most insane line
he's ever been in.
How?
The airport also told airlines
when they're landing planes in Austin
to bring extra fuel because they can't guarantee
they have enough fuel to put gas in them
to take off again, because there's so many planes
here taking off.
Man.
I was just thinking how we're lucky
that the Achima Hunter tour wasn't happening
like this week, and it's such as weekend,
because you guys would have had to fly out
from, or they would have had to fly out from then.
But Jesus Christ, I've seen a bad like backed up
in the airport itself with like lines kind of
snaking around, but never like that.
Yeah, it's absolutely crazy.
Like I think normally they say for airports Austin size,
normally they have like a five to seven day reserve
a fuel for planes, but that Austin,
the Austin airport only has a two day reserve
and that there were so many flights
that they just like burn through it all.
They got small tanks.
Yeah, they're trying to expand it
as part of like the airport expansion
and they was already approved,
but when they, but the pandemic slowed down
their construction start and then when they went to start, then the people who lived close to it were like,
oh, we don't want that nearest.
Even though it was already approved.
Fair.
Yeah, which is fair.
So now they're like trying to figure out a way to expand their tools.
Well, yeah, South By happened, like a week ago.
Right.
Yeah.
But even I didn't even see pictures that bad from South By.
I had somebody, I used to be one of the airport and like the line to pick up people was outrageous.
Not that bad, but holy shit.
Yeah, I told this on the podcast a few weeks ago.
I don't think it was last week.
When I was leaving the airport, I parked there
and there was a line to get out of the parking structure.
That's insane.
So it took me an hour to get out of the airport.
What?
Yeah, just to get out and I had parked there. So that was miserable. But
I, it's, something's got to change. What is this world coming to? What is this world
coming to? Well, I read projections, I read projections that the summer of 2019 was
the busiest that the Austin Airport ever was. Okay. And this summer's
projected to be 40% busier. Have they made any changes to accommodate further?
They're hiring more people and they're trying,
and I think the security lines have expanded a bit,
but still it's gonna be nuts.
Can't think of a better time to sign up for clear.
Yeah, talk about a perfect ad for clear.
Yeah.
There's someone in chat set that in.
Can we get sponsor?
Brenton K. breaks things.
Set sign up for clear.
Set up. If there was ever a time to buy clear, there it is.
I remember I got it around March 2020.
Oh no.
I didn't use it.
It's been any refunds or no?
Just, there must have been a good year for their bottom line.
Everyone's still paying for this and no one's using it.
Oh, to those wondering why I'm not wearing 64 items of clothes again. What's excuses?
Why is that, Eric?
Andrew didn't get...
We did a whole recording.
Andrew hasn't chosen the special one item of the 64 items and we also had to talk about
how many socks is one sock for whatever.
Basically, I need to receive the information on Andrew's pick. That is correct. how many socks is one sock for whatever. They're hiding it all, basically.
I need to receive the information on Andrew's pick
and that is correct.
But we have recorded two episodes ahead at this point
and he didn't discuss it on either one.
Yeah, that is also correct.
So it's gonna be a few weeks before we get to the 60,
we will let people know that there will be
64 items of clothing.
So, okay, so I'm waiting.
I'm waiting for the table.
What's on the table?
I'm selling the table. Yeah, yeah, I think that counts as one. That's of clothing. So okay, so I'm waiting table. What's on the side of the table? Yeah, yeah, I think I can't see that's not clothing. I think it is. I
think I would say I would say that's a piece of clothing. What if it's opaque? No,
yeah, but if it's opaque, what if it's a clone of the dark? Do you does jewelry count? No,
you know why? Because it's jewelry. Yeah, it That's good point. What about hat?
Yes, is that on an accessory? Well, let's put this to you. Yes as well. What is still clothing? Is this sock one or two pieces of clothing? One pair of socks is two. Yeah, that that's that was the question a pair of socks is it one or two? I said it's one. It's two. It's a pair
But a pair of pants is one
Good counter argument. Yeah, but there's one.
That means pants are two.
But it's a pair of pants.
It's a two.
That's easier though.
This is getting dangerous at close to wheels and tires.
Why is he called a pair of pants if it's one piece of clothing?
It's because of the legs.
Like there's two legs.
Yeah.
I mean, I guess, you know, people say pants,
but you'd say like, that's a pair of pants.
Why is that?
It should be a pair of legs. It's a pair of legs, yeah. It's a pair of pants. Why is that? It should be a pair of legs.
It's a pair of legs, yeah.
It's a pair of legs or pants.
But why is it a pair of pants?
Pant.
Pant.
Like panton.
I have a pant.
It's a full circle.
Oh.
But we're figuring it out.
Let me put on my pair of arms real quick.
Pair from the Latin means two like things.
And pants were originally two like things.
What does that mean?
I have no idea.
Like you put them on one leg at a time
because they actually came in two pieces.
Yeah, but pair of glasses, you don't put them on one at a time.
I don't think anybody calls them a pair of glasses.
You don't have to be able to say no.
I think maybe I've heard that.
I've heard it may have referred to as a pair of glasses. Par you have to be a little sick? No. I think maybe I've heard that.
I've heard it may have referred to as a pair of glasses.
Parasund glasses?
That sounds normal to me.
No.
Yeah.
No.
Parasund normal.
Parasund normal.
Parasund normal.
Parasund normal.
I don't know what's right anymore.
I don't think it's a gas lit.
I think it's just a bunch of people confused and saying words.
Is this like that thing where you remember something incorrectly from your childhood?
The Mendel effects. The Mendel effect. Yeah, we're having a Mandela effect.
Like the Berencine Bears thing and the... I swear on everything that there was a cornucopia
and the Fried Looms logo. Is there not? There's not. There's not. There's just fruit
was. For real. But we all have it up here. You're fucking me up. It's real. You just stop it. It's I hate it
It makes I genuinely think we diverged at some point like yeah the reality. Yeah jumped. Yeah
God, okay, man. I don't know. I can't say anything else now. You fucking me up

This episode of the Rift T podcast brought to you
by Diet Smoke.
I'm just gonna come out and say it,
there's nothing worse than being way too high.
It's a problem that happens with edibles all the time.
It's hard to find the right dose,
but when you need a perfect medium high,
you can sit back, relax, and take a Diet Smoke.
Diet Smoke is a Delta 8 THC gummy, Delta 8.
It's basically just a less potent THC extracted from hemp, which means a smooth, stable,
and most importantly, legal high.
The high you get from diet smoke is the best described as somewhere between the chillness
of CBD and that classic stone feeling you get with regular weed.
Plus it comes in two delicious flavors, blue raspberry and watermelon.
So when CBD isn't enough and traditional THC is too much, enjoy the smooth buzz of diet
smoke.

I get, I think I've talked about this before, but I get unreasonably mad at car commercials
and like not at car manufacturer commercials.
I get mad at car dealership local commercials.
Oh yeah, terrible.
Awful.
I hate them, I think I've ran it about them before.
But the dumbest one, I saw the dumbest one ever last week
or the week before and I see it all the time now.
Where it's like talking had people being interviewed,
like customers of this car dealership,
being interviewed about how great the car dealership is.
And one of the persons who gives a testimonial,
she says something like, I thought it was the cars I loved,
but then I bought a car from another dealership
and I realized it's really the people
and the dealership that I love. It's like who the fuck says I bought a car from another dealership and I realized it's really the people in the dealership that I love.
I was like, who the fuck says out about a car dealership? Like I went somewhere else, but I didn't like that dealership as much as this one.
Shut the fuck up.
Like you're not, you're not fooling anybody. You know that the fucking car dealership paid her to say that.
Yeah.
So that's why she likes it more.
Yeah, she got five grand off her car.
I decided to get a new car and some was like,
how does it run?
Did you like the guy that sold it to me?
Was it the number one fan voted moment of car?
What the fuck was up with those?
We were talking about that rule book.
The best movie, my favorite movie of 2021,
Army of the Dead, clearly.
Did you see, did anyone watch the Oscars last night?
I've watched one part a hundred times.
I'm sure we were, we'll talk about in a moment.
But the first thing that really was very confusing
with the Oscars, I had a moment gap where they're like,
the top, like cheer worthy moments of movies ever.
A lot of time.
The top five.
I forgot the first two were.
Number five was like the matrix bullet time dodging
See you see that for the first one of them the minions. No, fuck. I don't remember what the fourth was number four was
I believe it was from dream girls if I remember right that pretty sure it's what one of the singers has this big moment
The third one was when Steve Rogers says Avengers assemble in Avengers Endgame. Classic.
Classic.
Great scene.
Second moment was when all the spider,
sorry, spoiler for no way home.
All the spider men are together flying through the air
in that final scene.
Are you okay?
Oh, carry just drinks and gatorade.
It looks terrible.
We really not like spider men, I guess.
I've no, I'm sorry.
I just drank canned gatorade and I think my mouth
wanted something different than what it got
And it really just fucking threw me for a loop go again
Guess I could take it might be the toothpaste
Yeah, why it's it says that it's not carbonated, but I was I remember we said I was still expressing carbonation
So all of these obviously make sets very
iconic moments. Yeah, all right.
You remember them?
Like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're definitely cheerworthy moments.
So what is the even greater moment?
Which you think like after those two is like, okay, what's going to be number one?
It must be something that you're not thinking of that must be amazing.
Gavin, what do you think of this?
Can't think of it.
Nope. No. It was the moment in
Zack Snyder's Justice League. No, no, where the flash is like about to enter speed force. Yeah
I don't remember that was this was this the most I don't even remember that I saw that how does it go?
What it happens? he goes fast.
He starts ramping himself up.
I think he ends up saving something in them.
I don't even remember.
I saw it.
I don't remember.
There's a theory that a bunch of Snyder fanboys
like abused the polls for it.
They must have, because then they also had another
like viewer poll later in the show that was like
the top five fan favorite films of 2021.
And the number one was the Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead movie
that came out on Netflix.
You know, everyone's favorite movie from 2021.
The most cheerworthy moment.
I've always wanted to do a collaboration or something
with DC where I'm just filming a video in Slomar and we like show a Slomar clip
and then the flash just like strolls through and all the speed like do some like visual effects.
That's actually really fun.
And they just not mention it at all.
Isn't there a flash movie coming out soon?
Next year.
Next year?
I feel like you could do a collab with them with that kind of stuff.
I'll put the suit on.
I'll put the suit on.
I'll put the suit on.
I'll put the suit on.
I'll put the suit on.
I'll put the suit on. I'll put the suit on. I'll do it. reprice his role. I'll do it. So, I'll do it.
The weird thing was I was...
I'll run to the donut store.
I was watching the Oscars live last night
and I felt like nobody on Twitter was tweeting
and you tweeted a couple things.
And I think Josh Flanagan maybe tweeted a couple things.
I think your both like tweeted about the polls.
Like what the fuck's going on with these?
I hadn't tweeted anything until then
because I was legitimately flabbergasted.
But nobody, I feel like nobody was tweeting about it.
And then it was the only thing anybody was tweeting about.
That was, yeah.
It was, what was the,
what's the name of the,
all of the clips from when Kennedy got shot?
There's a pruder film?
That this is ours, a pruder film.
And like, because we saw it from like four,
like eight different angles.
So, to make photos and like it was, I feel like we're ready to analyze.
Ready to like stabilize it.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I want to see it 3D recreated from all of the different angles.
And hands, and hands.
I think I imagine every single person on the internet knows what happened,
but just in case, just to break it down real quick, Chris Rock was at the Oscars doing some standup bits.
And in the process, he made a comment about Jada Pinkett Smith
and her hair saying, when's Jai Jain too?
Because she's bald.
And Jada suffers from alopecia.
Yes.
And I think has been vocal about this before.
And Will Smith, I guess, did not take lightly to this moment and went up on stage and slapped
him in the face.
And they were sitting right at the front.
Right at the front.
And after that, Chris Rock was shaken.
They muted the stream for a bit.
And then he continued on.
And then about half an hour later, Will Smith won an Oscar for Best Actor.
Yeah.
And it apologized to everyone except Chris Rock.
It's a very delicate situation.
I feel like the way it was handled on both sides was wrong.
I feel like I haven't seen people say that online
and that's also how I feel.
It's just like, we gotta be extreme, right?
We don't have to be no, Gus.
We could really just be like, this is the thing.
We could just cut the cake.
And not do-
And cut a circle slice.
It was a square.
I'm saying that you were both wrong.
Maybe one was more wrong.
The way I cut was right.
Cut the cake traditional.
Yeah.
I don't want to take sides in this.
And I think that's, I agree, Carrie.
What everyone seems to be doing,
where there's a argument of like,
well, he was defending his wife,
and you can't talk shit about someone public like that
in front of everyone with no repercussion.
And it's like, I get that you should not be doing that,
but also to do that to somebody.
I think the easy stance in my mind,
the easy stance is violence never the answer.
Yeah.
Well, like, there was,
there were a lot of ways it could be handled,
but I think resorting to violence is the wrong tactic.
Right.
I would agree with that, but I also,
yeah, can never speak for anyone in their decisions.
It's very true.
But it was just a very weird situation.
The worst thing.
I do not think it was fake.
Some people were like thinking.
At least initially some people were like,
oh this is all publicity so I do not think it was fake.
I don't think so either.
I think it was legitimate reaction.
It was just a heat of the moment.
I feel very bad for a user on Twitter whose handle is Will Smith.
Yeah.
Because it is not that-
And it's a verified account.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
I feel bad for Questlove.
Why?
Because he won that Oscar.
Oh.
Right.
So the one that he presented.
The one that Chris Rock presented.
Right.
Right.
So it's like, presented. Right. Right.
So it's like, oh, right.
They go through all this and Questlove goes up
to give his, has to go up and accept an Oscar
and give a speech for a subject that's very close to him.
And it's like all of, his joy is robbed
because of the moment that just happened.
I agree.
No, I was talking to Trevor about it.
I was just like, man, it's going to suck for whoever wins
this Oscar right now.
Yes, you already forgot.
That's all what it's about.
Yeah, honestly, I feel bad for all the winners that night
because this is overshadowing everything.
I mean, notice how we're talking about it too.
We're not talking about how like Kodo won Best Picture
or how like these amazing moments for different representation
and different disabilities in the industry.
It's like this punch.
Do we need the Oscars? I'll say it. I don't think so. I'll say I'll be bold. Do we need the Oscars?
I think it's nice to recognize people's hard work. Yeah, I like the Oscars. I've always enjoyed
watching the Oscars ever since I was a little kid. I've never watched one. Really? I've
always, ever since I was a little kid, I love movies. I love trying to like learn what the different people did,
you know, living out in the middle of nowhere,
pre-internet times.
Like just, I thought it was, I always thought.
I would like a behind the scenes Oscars more.
So they can't, wait.
I used to get the fees.
It's the Academy Awards, or is there Oscars?
Or is there the same thing?
The Academy Awards.
Yes.
The statue is an Oscar.
Gotcha.
But they call it the Oscars.
Right.
But it's the the motion picture academy arts
and sciences, the Academy Awards or whatever. Okay. I was very happy to see Billy Eilish and Phineas.
That was cool. Hell yeah. For the audience. Those are great performance. They're fucking fantastic.
Did they perform this song? Yeah. They did. Yeah. Did they do any Fortnite dances?
I think at one point Phineas as he was playing the piano, somehow managed to
floss at the same time.
Like a flash speed.
Flash speed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He did a quick floss.
It was just, I don't know, it's really cool to see them win an Oscar.
What are you saying, Eric, that they should award more blockbuster movies?
People have talked about the decline of the viewership for the Oscars,
and they're talking about, you know, they expanded it to like nominating 10 best pictures
and everything to get more viewership, but then things like Spider-Man, whatever, whatever
isn't nominated. Do you think that the criteria should change? Will that improve
viewership? That's the knee jerk reaction from Twitter people.
I don't think having 10 best picture nominees is the answer.
I think that just makes it, that just spreads it out too much.
Could I do a, I do think that it is fucked up that the most
successful movies in the biggest blockbusters tend to not get
like a best picture not they will get visual effects.
Is that a recent thing or is that?
I think that's the way it is sometimes. I feel like you do get some giant blockbusters just sweeping all the awards sometimes.
Like your Titanic's and your load of the range.
I mean, do and did really well.
Yeah, but no best picture. But yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, even more. Then you still end up with 10 Best Picture nominees,
but you cut it up into different categories.
They should have Best Picture and Most Fun Picture.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Man, that's Spider-Man-C.
It's not a last name.
With all the three Spider-Man's.
Yeah.
That was one, honestly, one of the coolest cinematic moments.
Second coolest.
Yeah.
I don't want to say the flash doing something.
It's people.
I just love giant decades long payoffs like that.
Yeah, it's like, it's holy.
It's just shaking.
It's just like a game thing was so cool too.
Yeah, I was like, 20 years of release.
I was thinking about 10.
20 films.
Yeah.
Sorry.
I was thinking about that when they showed like that,
like the cheer worthy moment.
I was like, man, I would love to rewatch that.
And I started thinking like, it wouldn't have the same impact.
Like, unless you, like watching everything building up for years
and then having that moment.
There are a lot of it's like anytime I need like a pick me up,
I will go, there's a several videos of people in theaters
watching the moment where Captain America takes our camera
and you just see those clips.
It's powerful.
It's so...
I do the exact same thing here.
When I'm feeling down,
I'll go watch theater reactions to those moments.
Like I know, it's just like, ha ha ha, fun movie, ha ha ha.
It's fun.
It also is like,
because if you watch those, you remember how you felt
when you experienced that moment
and there's nothing that compares to that feeling.
To all those clips come from people
who are seeing it for the second time,
just filming the reaction,
like, well, where do those clips come from?
Is it people just filming the movie?
I think it's just people who are illegally filming
the movie, I would imagine,
because it's usually like opening night.
I would love to be a more celebrated way
to show clips from inside theater.
I do, I do too.
Like if, you, and my more celebrate,
you mean not illegal?
Yeah, like not technically.
Not like you're trying to get the movie without paying for it.
Or you film the audience and then you could like put a picture in picture.
Yeah, maybe your ticket is like $2 off if you can be in...
If you can be filmed watching it or something.
I would totally be filmed watching like a Marvel horror movie.
I think I like it.
I don't know, everyone wants to be filmed.
You need to like separate them out.
But I know what's the incentive to going filmed or not filmed.
What's the incentive, Eric?
I'm trying to figure out people in there.
Guys, you know what I can do?
Yeah, I'd love to have one eighth of a popcorn.
Yeah.
All right, wow, he's a lot of good.
It's generous.
Yeah.
I just thought of something we could do
for our 20th anniversary.
Smoke weed.
Smoke weed. Harry!
What's up?
We could bring back the podcast awards.
Oh God.
I feel like that dog looking at the cupcake with a thousand yards stare.
When would we stop doing those?
Oh like five, six years ago?
No, it's been way longer.
We stopped doing those like eight years ago now.
Yeah.
Perfect time for me to pick it back.
20th anniversary.
Is it because too many people took them and threw them in the bin?
It's just ended up being a lot of work for me.
Well now you've got all these other people, Gus.
Now it's all up for other people.
It's not just you and me.
You're like Eric.
No, it's busy.
Now it's people who love taking on extra love.
Eric was always unhappy.
No fuck it.
There's no upside.
It's like cutting a cake.
People are just gonna bitch about it.
Yeah, but then you get cake and it's delicious.
God, that looks like a fucking mess.
I just don't understand where you're gonna cut from the middle.
Like it just doesn't make sense.
Yeah.
It's like, it's just, yeah, it's as simple as that.
What's wrong with cutting the way I do?
I still don't understand what's wrong with that.
Let me cut it straight. Cut too much. I know the way that they you want to cut
What's wrong with the way I did it?
Right, I think I understand with the way that they're saying it. I still understand what's wrong with the way I did it
I think
I think Gavin is a big bum. I just think it's weird.
I think the idea is that you want that moist interior exposed to the air as little as possible.
So if you cut all the way through, but we don't eat half of it in one go, you'll have
a tail here.
You got a tail here too.
I thought he did.
Well, and to be fair, it got a little of fail in here. And nobody wanted food. I thought he did.
Well, and to be fair, you got a little awkward
and then nobody wanted the cake.
It's a good cake, but you didn't finish
your amazing slice, Carrie.
But finish mine.
Look at me.
Was there something wrong with that?
Look at me.
Yeah, I don't need cake.
I'll eat it later.
I finished mine, sir.
Yeah, I'm sorry, you're gonna say.
Look at me.
Look at me.
Look at me.
I'll eat more of my cake.
There were a lot of films on me for this picture this year.
I didn't see all of them.
That's not some of them.
But one that I did see was drive my car.
I want to see that so bad.
I don't get it.
I really don't get it.
I've only heard amazing things about that movie. I don't, it. I really don't get it. I have only heard amazing things about that movie.
I don't, I mean too.
But I watched it.
I was like, I.
To be fair though, I haven't agreed with a lot of Gus' movie
opinions lately.
Or Kate, Kevin.
You hate Parasite?
Well, no, I loved Parasite.
Parasites, but I was.
Have you read any of the authors?
He wrote a story that there was another Korean film called Burning was based on like barn burning. Okay, burning is a fucking phenomenal film that came out in 2018
I tell about Murakami. Yeah, okay, and I have a book of his
Next to my couch that I've been meaning to read for like six months which one
Shit 184
You look Um, shit. Uh, 1, Q 84. Um, you look, uh, uh, fuck, I can't believe it.
While you're doing that, they're good.
He's a good author.
I'll check your barometer for if you're on the same page as Gus in movies.
What's a barometer?
Maybe that's not the right word.
Maybe I think it was.
I'm gonna ask you about two movies.
Okay.
The new Matrix movie.
Did you like it or did you not like it?
What if I haven't seen it yet?
Then you can't answer that.
And I'm guessing you might not have seen the second movie.
Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Rey.
Vista Del Mar?
Vista Del Mar, my bad.
I feel bad and I don't know if I'm going to get...
I don't think I've literally ever heard of that one.
Okay.
So I cannot test you.
Yeah, Gavin, I've seen the Matrix.
Hard boiled wonderland in the end of the world.
That was good.
Do we still have polls?
In the chat, I think so.
The country?
Yeah.
Why, what do you need?
I just need diameteral radius cake cause.
I just need to know.
Yeah.
Cool.
Just tweet it out.
Get it, get it, get it, get it.
Go blog. I'm a circum it, get it, go blog.
I'm a circumference cutter.
It just gets smaller.
It's like a spider.
It's like a spider-looking.
It was a cinnamon roll, dude.
It was.
It was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was like I was I started watching it and then like the opening credits don't start till 40 minutes into the movie
Who you're like oh my god everything I don't everything I just watched was like the very beginning of the book preamble
Yeah, like oh, I haven't even really started yet have I
What is the most confusing film you've seen?
The most confusing film I saw and and thought it was good that it was confusing.
Didn't you tell us about one recently that you watched that was very strange.
Like no one had real emotion and seemed like it was the killing of a sacred deer.
That's the one.
Yeah, that's a fucked up movie.
How about that?
Yeah, the killing of a sacred deer.
Either that or a memento.
That was really confusing when I first watched it.
Yeah, some early Nolan.
I had to watch 10 and three times to get it.
Like fully, like I understood the concept and like what was going on,
but to actually get like all the little nuance things.
Yeah.
I feel like I had to watch that three times.
I would say primer.
Oh, primer, yeah, fuck.
I've watched that at varying stages in my life.
I think I watched it as a teenager.
I could watch it in my 20s.
It's on my thiz.
I feel like it's different every time.
I'm confused every time.
I feel like I have different thoughts on that movie
every time I see it about how many iterations
they've been through.
And I think the last time I watched it,
I was like, I think it's impossible to count.
I think it's like an infinite number of iterations. I think the last time I watched it, I was like, I think it's impossible to count. I think it's like an infinite number of iterations.
I think the next time I'm gonna have to watch it
with that graphic,
where I think they in the film,
there's like four visible,
it's a 14 visible iterations,
and there's like, it's like a big chart.
Yeah, I think we have like a primer primer.
I need a primer primer,
but have you seen that film?
I have not seen primer.
So a time travel film,
where I think at some point they take a time machine
back in time through with that time machine.
Okay, so it's like you have to wait in the time machine. So it's like yeah, if you want to go back
in time 24 hours, you go in the machine, you have to sit in there 24 hours. What if you want to go
backwards in time by like years? It doesn't work that way?
Not really.
They're dealing with a lot more of a comparison.
Can you take the time machine and the time machine
with you, get out, and then get in the time machine?
That was the thing that starts messing it up.
Once you put the time machine and the time machine,
then everything kind of starts breaking.
I think at some point there's a reveal that what appears
like a very early cycle is actually super
Lay and then you like wait this changes everything. It's got one of my favorite lines ever in a movie
where it's like two guys who are doing this and they're like they're waiting in a hotel room because like they can't run into
Their other selves that are out and about and then when I'm they're like looking at their watch
I want to go see other hey, you want to get something to eat? The guy was yeah, I'm starving. I haven't eaten anything since later today
We can let their watch it, we can go see other, hey, you wanna get something to eat?
The guy was, yeah, I'm starving,
I've never eaten anything since later today.
That I think you're like,
yeah, they basically have to hide and wait
for them in the past to go and get in the time machine.
And then they're not there anymore.
So then they can like resume.
Seems like the most like,
the movie is a total mind fuck.
I really wanna see this now.
It seems like a very simple,
I mean, it's very low budget, extremely low budget film.
Fimer.
And it seems like a very simple approach to time travel
and then you realize that it isn't at all
and it's confusing as penis.
Penis are confusing.
Yeah.
Like, where do they really start?
What would you, on the flip side,
what would you say is the most well done
or compry, hence comprehensive time travel movie?
Like where you're like, this makes sense, they explained it,
they did it the right way.
Groundhog day?
That one upside a few trauma where they get in the time machine,
they can only go forward.
Oh, that's a good one.
That's a really good one.
Time is just cyclical, so they just keep going forward.
Interesting.
Until they get to the point where they want.
Hmm.
It's always fucked. There they just keep going forward until they get to the point where they want
It's always fuck there's always something looper messed up looper is good Looper has some good time. Yes, it inception doesn't count. It's not really time travel
I did think I have that dilation, but I think that's done very well
Yeah, I only saw inception in theaters one time and I feel like that's a movie
Come over and watch Inception with me.
Oh, right.
Because I want to watch that all the time.
And then watch Paprika, which is an anime film
that heavily inspired Inception.
Really?
Paprika.
Where would you watch it?
It's also a great spice.
Yes.
I'd like to point out that Gus got absolutely destroyed
in this poll.
Yup.
Well, no, absolutely 30%.
30% of people are still 30% now.
Stop the steal.
What my guess is 30% of the people who answer this poll
didn't understand.
I would dare to explain.
I explained diameter and radius so many times
to these people in this chat and then just the next question.
Which one's which?
Yeah.
Empire squared.
That's it. That how do you say?
You can't watch Primer online.
No, it's cake, don't play.
You have to like, I mean like it's not for free on a streaming service, you have to pay
to rent it.
Oh, is it not like any streaming service?
Man, I want you to pay like it.
Two or three or four bucks if you want to rent it.
What's the fucking policy?
Have you seen Vemento?
Yeah, I saw that once though a long time ago as well.
But I love that. But I love seen Momento? Yeah, I saw that once though a long time ago as well. But I love the theater. Really? Yeah. I remember watching that movie with my first boyfriend, Joe,
back in like 2005. So pre-netflix and chill? Yeah. Yeah. This was block VHS.
VHS. Blockbuster and Bust. Blockbuster and Bust. Bust. I was watching Severance last week. It's an Apple TV show. And a really great
show. I highly recommend it to everyone. And I was watching it. And at the end, like
the episode ended and they started showing the credits. And I had to pause it. So I was
like, did I just read that person's name right and to like rewind it?
And one of the producers, her name was Jill Footlich.
F-O-O-T-L-I-C-K.
And I was like, and then I started thinking, this might be an alternate reality game.
I'm going to look her up on IMDb and see if this is a real person.
Real person? Damn. With up to Footlic. I mean, think about how strong you have to be.
To not change it? Yeah, to go through life and like become successful with that last name.
It's Footlic. How do you get through elementary school? How do you get through any school?
Yeah. Middle school, high school. Middle school is, I think, is the school yeah middle school high school middle school is I think is the worst middle school middle school in America we
We become primal and it's the worst. Yeah, I I don't know how I'm in at middle school
And we're all stinky. Yeah, like we're just figuring out stuff out. We're all so stinky
And some of that never goes away. Yeah, uh-oh
Stinky
Absolutely disgusting always laugh at that. Uh, sorry. Let me just cover myself an axe body spray
Or links for our bridge viewers. Yeah, it's that you. Oh, is that like the UK version of for the UK name for it?
Yeah, like they can't be normal. Yeah, I don't know why it's too violent.
Max, they were going to call it headbutt. That's not allowed in the UK either.
Now we're going to call it. I'll show you what's full.
Man, the, the third season of Atlanta premiered this past week. None of you watch Atlanta, right?
Oh, it's been on my list for so long.
It is fucking long.
Such a good show.
It might be one of the best shows on TV.
It's been like four years since they had a season.
I feel like it's criminally underwatched
and underappreciated.
It is a phenomenal show.
And they debuted with the first two episodes
of season three of this past week.
And it's too good.
Does that have a time machine?
No, they don't have no time machine.
It's on a whole other level.
I feel like nobody is anywhere close
to Atlanta right now.
I remember trying to watch, this is like a few years ago.
I tried to watch the first few episodes
and I just like was not getting into it.
It just like, I don't know.
The show seemed very complicated
and like a lot of stuff was going on
that I couldn't really understand.
Does it kind of even out or is it always kind of very like a lot going on at once?
There's a lot, so there's always, I feel like there's always a lot going on,
but I feel like the show has changed over time. Season one was very much, in my opinion,
season one was very much about like paperboy and earn and paperboy's career taking off.
like Paperboy and Earn and Paperboy's career taking off.
Season two became more almost like self-contained anthologies. It's like they established the characters
and they relationship with each other in season one
and like kind of building this overarching story.
And then that story kind of takes a back seat in season two
and season two is just like,
these characters get into different scenarios
and here's what happens.
And season three
Seems more
There's only two episodes out. It still seems very anthology
But there's a lot more to deal with paper voice career because like they're going on tour in Europe
Okay, but that being said the first episode has nobody from the main cast in it the first episode is just like
Entirely other people What's that's why I was confused.
It's been four years since they did one.
Yeah, the first episode is entirely just like it's almost like a short film that's
unrelated to anybody in the show. It's also good. We talked about this I think
last podcast too, but how I don't really typically enjoy shows that like feel like a
downer the whole time. That's why I don't watch you for you
Ozark. Ozark. I haven't watched those are so good, but I feel like
Atlantis like I felt like it was gonna be a downer of a show because there was like a lot of really just insane things happening
Yeah, I mean they already it seems like a lot of violence a lot of like I guess it's like the tone of the show, but
I mean Life's like the tone of the show, but It I mean
Life's a downer. Yeah, that's true
I avoid downer shows
Yeah, just watch a bunch of them between
You know, I've never watched SpongeBob is that you'll go to show for
Oh, no, I think that'd be probably feet trauma
No, that's why you threw out your Futurama
time shall reference earlier.
Yeah, I went there's period of my life
where I was watching Futurama.
Like, Dev, I watched it every day easily.
Before this show started, Tyler and I were trying to remember
what the name of the far and it's worth invention was
that made us...
I think it's just the thing longer.
It is the thing longer, I had to look it up.
Yeah, it's just the thing longer.
Yeah.
I had to look it up, but you remember instantly.
I have, I have the only, so I've seen that show so many times, except for the last season,
which I refused to watch, because I didn't want it to end.
So I've just been sitting on it and like, waiting.
So it's never ended for you.
But it's coming back.
It's just coming back.
So now I can fucking crack that bad boy open.
Just like a can of gatorade.
Just like a can of weed.
Non-carbonated gatorade, thirst, quencher.
Dioran.
Dioran.
Dioran.
Dioran.
Dioran.
Did you say Flournj?
Flournj.
I did.
This one, Flournj.
It's Flournj's.
Flournj's.
That's fine.
We can just move on.
Should it be carbonated?
Like what it would be?
Uh, I mean, at that point, it would be phanta.
And that would taste better.
Like, I will drink water out of a can it would be phanta and that would taste better.
Like I will drink water out of a can. I've had this before.
It's flavor.
It's orange.
Just so it tastes like orange.
You know like like like like have you had an orange gatorade before like from the plastic bottle.
Yeah.
Now open it in your mind, right?
You're drinking it.
And now and now also it's in a can.
Oh, so it just tastes the exact same.
It tastes exactly the same as it's in a can. So why did you just tastes the exact same. It tastes exactly the same, but it's in a can.
So why did you gag?
So it's Gatorade.
It is, yeah.
I never denied that.
I was just, when do you drink can
and not, and you expect carbonation?
It's true.
I feel like whenever you drink something,
expecting something else, it's horrendous.
Yes, I agree.
Like if you ever drink, that's where I gagged.
If you drink, if you think you're drinking orange juice
and it's milk, it's like you almost throw up.
How have you done that before?
Yeah. I would also be like, why am I drinking milk? If you think you're drinking orange juice and it's milk, it's like you almost throw up. How many have you done that before? Yep.
I would also be like, why am I drinking milk?
I've fully grown both.
I bought the most like gimmicky soda over this past weekend.
I saw a commercial for nitro Pepsi.
I honestly actually kind of want to try this.
And I was like, well now I gotta go to the store
and buy nitro Pepsi.
I got in my car and I made Nitro Pepsi. You made my shirt.
I got in my car and I made a special trip.
You always make it into the store.
Stuff while you're out.
Why'd you keep going out?
To buy a Nitro Pepsi.
Was it worth it?
What is it?
Yes.
I guess it's like a special kind of Pepsi
where they use Nitrogen bubbles,
set a carbon dioxide.
So it's like a Nitro cold brew.
Kind of where it's like, or like a Guinness where it's like super creamy was it also super like bubbly like so the off but then it goes away very quickly
Yeah, yeah, it's like you have to drink it super fast otherwise
It just and you just drink a flat Pepsi. I made a realization about time that oh god. I've made
I've told you about these things before Gus and you say you hate visualizing time this way. Oh, no, but I love it
We're almost at the point where do you remember at the beginning of GTA 5?
You're in like Northeanston. It's the snow area
Mm-hmm
And then like all of these years pass and then you're back in the present
I think now there's more time since GTA 5 coming out
Remember then the gap between Northeanston and the start of GTA 5 coming out. Rune blend the gap between Northean and the star of GTA 5.
Geez.
I think it's a nine year gap.
I think you've just blue carries mine right now.
So we've now lived the amount of time between those two events.
And we've all worked in here since then too.
Oh yeah.
We've all, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Are we all in limbo right now?
Perkatory.
Perkatory, that's the one.
Every day we'll come in and we'll cut the cake differently.
They can just be like repeat over and over again.
I've been found that.
I like hanging out with y'all.
Aww.
Can I ask you all a hypothetical question?
I saw in shower thoughts about it.
I've been, I want to talk about last week, but involves like the human soul and I feel
like a good time to talk about that with the tornado.
It's also good to be in person when we're having this.
It is.
Very deep to show you.
This would work for anybody, but let's use Eric as an example.
Eric would do it.
There's a little bit of setup here.
We don't have to get over things at the beginning.
There's Eric, and next to him is a goldfish.
I've got a gun.
Like a regular sized goldfish?
There would be. There's Eric. There's a goldfish goldfish, right? And I've got a gun. Like a regular sized goldfish? There would be.
There's Eric and there's a goldfish.
Is it on that side or that side?
Let's say his left.
His left.
His left.
Okay, and I've got a gun and I say,
I'm gonna shoot one of them.
Okay.
Obviously y'all would say shoot the goldfish.
I mean, obviously, but probably.
He brought us a cake.
He brought us a cake.
I shoot the goldfish.
So yes, okay.
Okay. Now if I said pick between Eric and every single aquatic life form on the planet, it's
a little bit harder, doesn't it?
No, it doesn't.
Well, we have to.
Eric.
Yeah, yeah, so say, it more or less like a harder.
But she's every whale in the world. Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Eric. Somewhere in between. Oh, the tipping line.
Somewhere in between is how many fish we would not kill.
How many fish Eric is worth?
How many fish Eric, any person, but let's say Eric is worth.
Or man, to me it's like the extinction of all of the aquatic life.
But do you think it'd be a big deal of all goldfish we're going?
No.
I don't think that they are necessarily
just all your run-of-the-mill goldfish.
To existence.
Well, food chain wise,
it's gonna have a knock on effect.
Yeah, what do you eat?
Goldfish.
But do they eat anything that the oil eat?
Goldfish.
Yeah.
Right.
Goldfish exists in the wild.
They probably.
Of course they do.
Do they?
Well, where do we get them from?
Farms.
Goldfish farms.
It's farms, it's farms.
It's farms. Like they must have been wild somewhere.
They went bred to be goatfish, wasn't it?
Oh, they're wild.
I saw someone in chat say, er, greater than all fish,
just so you know.
How many, what about half fish?
Half fish.
Yeah, it's still pretty rough.
And my friend in half fish.
I probably shoot, I'd shoot half of fish.
Yeah.
Shoot half fish.
But I want it to be half of each species.
I don't want to wipe out like half of all species fish. I want to cut every fish in half. It's going to
be like, no fish go from cute to villainous when released into the wild. They're known
to carry disease in parasites as well as breed with wild carp. So let's go ahead and take
out all the goldfish. Yeah. And we're keeping Eric. okay. Yes, yes, yes, tuna
Tuna is delicious. I was thinking more about how many people eat tuna and survive on it, but it is also delicious. Yeah
Probably be less mercury poisoning
Okay, in the wild go positive on Eric's slow movie fresh water bodies of water We're not here to learn about fish. We're hurry to learn about what we're killing
To keep Eric around.
All the fish.
The thing is, you can't, like what if we save Derek
and then next week, you know, he gets annihilated by a bus?
We'll be like, I think you died for that.
I keep a pretty pissed if you died after that, yeah.
I'm gonna die eventually.
Or be the first one to live forever.
You never know.
Consider that. And then we pick the right guy to murder with a fish live forever. You never know. Consider that.
And then we pick the right guy to muddle the fish at.
I don't know.
There's gotta be, I don't know if you like,
gauge it by weight or by species.
It's got it.
Like yeah, like how many tons of fish?
30,000 tons of fish.
So you're gonna figure out what a weight ratio.
That's not a set of fish.
Maybe we talk percentage.
It's like two whales then.
You're like, oh, that's not too bad.
Yeah.
The biggest whales.
Right.
We'll just say, hey, everybody stop accidentally killing
or purposely killing whales.
Leap save two, they'll vouch for Eric.
And then we're fine.
What's the method?
Are we just pressing the button and then all the fish die?
Or are we having to go and-
I'll take care of the door.
You'll take care of what he does the guy.
I'm just saying, I'm just saying,
I'm not saying I'll take care of it.
I did say that.
I'm just saying you don't worry about it.
Okay.
I'm revising my statement.
You don't worry about it.
We don't worry about it.
You don't worry about it.
I'm gonna be busy though. I'm gonna be busy though
Let me put that one. I'm gonna be busy Well, but all what cows
No, sorry Eric. I need my in and out my my borders
You know impossible or beyond
I mean possible for air
Again, let's get applied to anybody
possible for Eric. And again, this is going to play to anybody.
What?
Eric.
Eric.
What?
Eric.
Eric.
Eric.
Eric.
Eric.
Eric.
Eric.
Eric.
Eric. Eric.
Eric. Eric.
Eric. Eric.
Eric.
Eric. Eric.
Eric.
Eric.
Eric.
Eric. Eric. Eric. Eric. Eric. Tuna are in the world. You read my mind.
Oh, which we guess? Does anyone want to guess how many?
So I found the number four, the estimated number four,
Pacific Bluefin Tuna.
Okay, Pacific.
Pacific Bluefin Tuna.
I'm gonna say,
this is starting out fake.
This is wild card.
10 million. And this is as of September 1 off, babe. This is wild card. 10 million.
And this is as of September 1st, 2017.
I zero.
I'm gonna say.
You said 10 million.
I said 10 million.
I'm gonna say 10 billion.
10 billion?
I'm gonna say,
don't you say 10 billion in one, you said a little bit.
Oh, I'm gonna say 8 billion.
1.6 million of which 145,000 are reproducing adults. That seems way low. That's very
low. I thought I was going to be low. Wait.
1 million? 1.5. Why was I so off? How many people live in Texas? I thought this is a shitload
of fish. It's surprising 10 million. This is mostly C. This is from N NPR I guess we'll check your sources
Hey billion I thought that'd be more than human stocks of facimiproof and tune have fallen to 2.6% of their historic size
Oh, okay, great another problem. We have to try and solve
Thanks, Kerry. Okay, so let's let's let how what's the what's the industry value?
per year on them?
Val, you're gonna invest.
No, I'm just saying I'm just gonna see how much I'm worth.
It's worth.
It's like, hey, don't pull that trigger on Eric.
Hey, look at me, some calls first.
2018, two is like a way up.
Oh God.
So it does it by ton.
It's 38,000 dollars per metric ton and how many tons of fish?
How much does up fish way blue fin tuna?
Wait wait a minute. I've I've gotten 320 pounds. Are we are we doing this 18?
We've been trying to do this at you right now. How many pounds? That's 512 million pounds
512 million pounds
Multiplied by how big is it divided by divided by two?
Two is there 300 pounds 320 pounds. They're cute. Have you never seen a big tuna?
Why am I thinking of a tuna fish being like no tuna are massive. Yeah, they're
Oh really so it's 250 thousand. I was in tune. We think of salmon that
I was thinking of them as like the you know when you ever see like movies of them catching a bunch of fish and like one of those giant nets underwater Yeah, like where they're going upstream to fuck yeah, yeah, I always think of that as tuna
But I'm very wrong. It's
It's probably already okay, so I'd be wiping out 10 billion dollars worth of industry. Yes, I feel like people really counting on that
Probably but also like just
but look at him
Yeah, oh we back on Eric. I was just doing me. Oh, yeah, it's you look at you. How else would you know when to stop fuckface reporting
Gotta keep them around it's like I think I
Gotta keep them around. It's tough.
I think that's big.
Oh my god.
That's a blue pink tuna.
That's a specific blue pink tuna.
Flatten you to death.
Mine.
Well, now we kind of don't like them.
They're too big.
That's all we have in those little cans?
Yeah, they fit the whole thing in there.
They fit the whole thing in there.
They gruff.
They juice it down.
Yeah, those are hydraulic press. Oh. They dare, they juice it down. Yeah, there's a hydraulic press.
Oh.
They did it to a fish.
I love the raw.
Canc of tuna fish and one tuna make.
I like how you typed all of that in all looking.
Well, I started off like thinking,
but depending on the size of the tuna,
you would, this can't be right.
You get somewhere between 20 and 180 cans.
That's what a 180 cans. Oh
Mate yeah, yeah, it's a different kind of tuna. Oh
Maybe that's what we're thinking. Oh, they didn't put the good shit in cats. What yeah?
What tuna is the canned tuna that if it's not bluefish blue fish? I just assumed it was the bluefish like assholes or something can
Like how they make hot dogs and chicken nuggets. Oh
I think. Can.
Like how they make hot dogs and chicken nuggets.
Oh, yeah.
Can white tuna is albacore.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
A lot of them in Stodgy.
How big is an albacore?
You know one thing you say about this podcast,
you laugh and you learn.
Albacore tuna, 73 pounds.
Maybe that's what I'm thinking of.
I take that.
Where we find you had albacore on the mind.
Yeah, as always.
So they are a lot smaller. That's something that I love baby
I think of tuna. That's what I think of I
Went I went to Tokyo back in 2005
Like the first day or second day. I got there was like super jet lag so you know
I was waking up really early in the morning
So like one day pre-dawn. I went out there to the Sukiji fish market
Which I think is like the largest fish market in the
world. And that's when I learned how big tuna were. Because you could see the
tuna that they had just caught, they were auctioning off, like the blue fin, and
they are fucking huge. How much did they go for the whole fish? I've no idea.
Did you get any fresh cuts? I did get some fresh cuts while I was there.
Yeah. Yeah. Did you get it raw? Just. Yeah, I think you're not supposed to do that.
I just got it.
I learned afterwards.
Why?
But where's what?
I think supposedly you can carry parasites.
Like whenever you eat sushi.
Whenever you eat sushi, that's been flash frozen, typically,
to kill parasites.
If you eat it fresh, this is what you're saying is, Gus,
what you're saying is that when I eat sushi,
I'm eating dead parasites.
Yes.
Nice.
How do the parasites, I thought the parasites are typically
in like the gut.
Is the parasites just in muscle?
I don't know. That's all I know.
I'm not looking that one up.
I think I'm gonna see gross things.
Gus, enough tuna questions today.
I think we've asked, well thank you guys for indulging me.
The tuna cast.
It sounds like Eric Beonel look as I'm saying.
Thanks, man. Yeah, he's time.
Did you, have you, has anyone,
did anybody watch Bad Vegan on Netflix?
No.
Is that like, is that when you have like,
I'll just have one burger.
It's all gonna know.
It's about, it's about a woman who started
a plant-based restaurant in New York.
And then she ended up getting kind of conned by someone else,
who was kind of like the Tinder swindler,
or he was like constantly asking her for money.
But he wasn't like swindling a bunch of people. He was like swindling her and like gambling it all away
And anyway, he told her all these crazy things that she believed for some reason that like he was
Like a superior being from like another plane and he was gonna if he gave if she gave him enough money
he would make her and her dog live forever.
And it's like this really weird story.
Who was like, you watch, you like,
how does anyone fall for that?
Like this was a woman who went to like,
the Wharton School of Business,
had a very successful business,
like all the celebrities in New York would go there
to her like vegan restaurant. And you're like, like how does this happen like how does a person come along who's
so charismatic that can bullshit you that severely yeah and to believing things like that.
And then eventually like he took so much money from her that they had to go on the run because
she couldn't pay her employees anymore and the like the restaurant folded. It's like it's like a four-part Netflix series. It's a it's really really interesting to watch.
Did he seem charismatic? Did they show footage? Like, um, did he seem charismatic?
He does not look like it. Does that look very charismatic?
Could you look charismatic? Yes. Oh, why died?
Oh, why died? What?
What?
You're a camera and give us pure courage, my Gavin.
Pure courage, my friend.
Where's my camera?
Does that one?
There you go.
Whoa, that guy knows me.
Hey, you look like Jeff there.
It's a very Jeff pose.
It's told me well.
The light.
Yeah.
Your eyes can go so wide.
You got a lot of a headroom on your iris. You know, it's bad when you see the color of your eyes can go so wide. You got a lot of a headroom on your iris.
Yeah, you know, it's bad when you see the color of your eyes
and then all white around it.
I can't.
I just always look still and even though I'm not.
You can't open them wider than that.
I'm trying as hard as I can or I'm out of Barbara.
That says wide as hang on.
I'm trying as hard as I can.
You're getting there? That's as wide as I am trying as hard as I can. You're getting there?
That's normal.
I'm trying every part of it, I'm drying out right now.
I'm trying so hard.
That's how wide trigger is get.
Okay.
I can't see.
Yeah, pretty good.
Yeah, I can't.
No.
You look like that emoji that's going like.
You're not very charismatic.
This podcast is so reminiscent of like four people trapped in a room where the power's
gone out and they're just going to keep them like, oh, what about this?
How can you...
You're like in a game yourself.
What else is spying?
Five minutes from now.
Speaking of vegans, too, I don't think any of you are watching Survivor this season,
but I know Gavin is. I think for the first time, at least that we've known about,
there's a vegan contestant on the show. That's very surprising to me.
Which is very challenging because on this season in particular, they're not giving
the players any rice. So they essentially have to find food and eat it.
I've seen vegan contestants on like naked and afraid before. Oh, really? Yeah,
which is like out in the wilderness for three or four weeks. I mean, I assume that
would be what that would be the first thing people throw out if they were
stranded on an island. They wouldn't. But what would they do in a contest though?
It's the problem. He did though. He did. He though he did he like Trump on squirrel he eats some fish. They're eating some fish and he was
pescetarian
Well, no, yeah, but I mean I just feel like yeah, that's the show aspect of it but I
I don't know if a vegan a typical vegan would happily starve to death if there was
But it's a bit weird
No, I mean in real life
I'm vegan so I'm just I'll just die
You could actually survive and eat whatever you have to I imagine yeah, they find the ball
They're like is this animal other I can't buy five
I do the stomach volleyball sound a leather or is it all plastic? No, no, no, I'm sure it's all.
I'm sure it's all.
It's all material.
Yeah, nothing's really more Gus.
I did.
I did.
It is.
I am happy that this is what my TikTok is.
I found it a TikTok apparently.
He just, he makes balls by hand, like soccer balls and like,
whoa, he just like makes them with leather.
Like stitches it together?
Yeah.
What is he used for this stuffing?
Uh, you know, he didn't get into that stuffing on a fobo.
Well, what you have some air air, but is there no like on the out like it's not just a
leather surrounding thing with air?
Like that blada with yeah.
Sorry, not stuffing lining.
Isn't there like a like a fuzzy kind of?
You probably can't.
Yeah, probably would have been a stomach back in the day or something.
A bladder.
Maybe.
That's already used to hold on juice.
True.
Yeah.
But yeah, that's what my TikTok's are now.
So how do you get a spherical ball by hand?
Oh, I'll sing in the video.
He took him a couple of tries.
It's probably just a thing.
He did do a very certain pattern like octagons and then hexagons
or something.
Or is like pentagons and hexagons.
I like watching therapeutic stuff like that.
I can watch people smelt metal all day as well,
just into bars.
I just, like who smelt it, built it.
I texted Bernie yesterday because I've been watching
this ASMR channel that is very reminiscent
of the greatest head massage kind of stuff.
And I sent it to him.
I was like, hey, I think you would like this channel
for some ASMR content.
And he's like, oh yeah, this is like right at my alley.
Also Gavin just sent me photos from our trip to India.
It did.
A few days ago.
Like literally it was like within a day or so
of me sending that and you sending those.
I had that same thing, but I too, that's mental.
Why, why are we both? See, he's really gonna pick you in a simulation again. I had that same thing but I too that's mental. Why why how are we both? No, I really get a pick. He's in a simulation. I had the same thing
happen. It's pretty much the same emotional level but two friends watch Shrek
in the same week. That happened last week and both the original Shrek movie
they read they both independently watch the original Shrek and then told me about it Shrek is very in these days. Yeah amongst the the
Gen Z. I mean, yeah Shrek Shrek is love. Shrek is love. I only saw the first one. I think I saw the first the second one fucking bangs
Good. Oh good. Yeah, the the first two are good. The third one is a yeah, and we don't we don't talk about that one
Yeah, you should watch that too.
Oh, I'll give it a go.
You should also watch Luca if you haven't seen that movie yet.
I've seen parts of that in the second.
It's a new opinion picture movie.
It is phenomenal.
I like to put it in a condo personally.
Also, people should come see a slype on Friday.
Speaking of the state side theater.
Enjoying things.
Yeah, no tornadoes. No tornadoes. I think
let me check the weather. Oh, there's a graphic up for it. It's right down there. April first.
I bet it's a Friday. April first. Celebrate the real anniversary, the actual anniversary date itself.
Go to rtxevents.com to check it out. Get some tickets. I don't think there's going to be
cake there. I've been told there are some very dumb things happening.
Are there?
Well, Carrie, do you wanna come?
Yeah.
Okay.
Carrie will be there.
Be a new way to cut cake.
I guess we can try to get a cake
and demonstrate ways to cut cake.
What if we brought that cake?
No.
That was a quick no.
It'll be completely unedible by then.
Unedible.
Both.
Unedible.
There's also another tour, Achima Nhana.
Oh, we all are the place.
Achima Nhana tour is happening at the same time
as the podcast, not the same night though.
I think it's the 31st, the second, and the third, right?
Who will win?
Ooh.
I mean, you'll have more days, so.
Is it a, I didn't, wasn't aware as a competition.
Everything's a competition.
Also, you guys will be on the West Coast.
Hmm.
What city's you all gonna be in?
LA?
Seattle, LA, San Francisco.
Sounds about right.
Look at you.
Oh, yeah, Trevor, huh?
I also pay attention to what we're doing all the time.
I know there's a West Coast tour, but since I'm not going and not involved, it's like
I'm only aware of the tour, not the specific.
I know everything the company is doing at all times, and I think it's just a habit from
being the person who used to run the social media at this company, where I'm like, I always
have to know everything that's going on, so now it's like just habit for me to be aware
of everything all the time.
I just tune out now, it's pretty great.
So if you want to know anything that's happening, I don't know if you heard this, Carrie,
but Ruby's gonna be an anime.
Yeah.
We can even maybe give people a little preview,
a little sneak peek about something
that we're not so supposed to show yet.
You got some stuff to show.
I was told we shouldn't show it.
I just got told, yes.
Are you serious?
Can we really, are the person in charge?
Oh, okay. Are you serious? We can really, are the person in charge? Oh, okay.
Are you serious?
We can't show it.
I got a conflicting message earlier.
Sorry if I'm late to this, but totally cool for you to show it and talk about it.
What do you guys talk about?
Because what I, this is the person, right?
It's the person.
What are they on about?
A trailer for a show.
Yeah.
That's the guy.
It's, I say we go for it.
Okay, I, what are they gonna do?
We've been like, for, sorry,
we're being a little cagey about this.
We're just trying to figure out if we can do this or not.
We talked about this for quite a while.
There was something we filmed back in January
where it took a lot of us a long time.
We did, we put some really long days in,
filming something, and it's something
that we haven't been able to talk about.
And the trailer's supposed to debut tomorrow.
But before the, like five minutes before the podcast went live,
I started messaging, Barbara and I both started messaging people
asking, hey, can we show the trailer
and talk about it on the podcast today? Instead of tomorrow? Because we're live and Bob is freaking out.
Those first members here. I just, I don't know if I could...
You want to see my conversation? Will this make you feel better?
I mean, this person is the head of marketing. So ultimately they say what to do.
But the person who I spoke to said they were having a meeting about it. This was at 520.
I just got this.
Okay.
We should do it.
Let's do it.
I'm going to call it.
They can put it on me.
I say we do it.
So we've been filmed this thing back in January.
And it was a marathon.
It was a real, it was a lot of filming.
It was a lot of work.
I think, from what I've seen, I think it turned out amazing.
I think it turned out great.
I'm super excited about it.
We have a trailer that, like we said,
it's not supposed to come out till tomorrow,
but we'll go ahead and, you know.
This is a huge deal for anyone watching.
For first members right now,
we'd be happy to show it to you.
So I think we should just show the trailer first
and then talk about it.
Do you agree with that sentiment, Barbara?
It's what, sorry.
We'll just show it and then talk about it.
Yes, absolutely.
So yeah, let's go ahead and let's roll
that beautiful bean footage.
Sorry, I was just a double check.
Welcome to Block Island,
a deceptively perilous play scape designed to test 12 of the greatest
minds in video game entertainment.
Let's go John!
Come on!
Oh my god!
Right in the hole!
No, we're at least those with decent internet connections.
Wait, what?
It's nice to be able to unwind, get out of work.
I bet we eat dust first.
Chris, you're always trying to eat something.
Throughout the series, competitors will face challenges and eliminations.
Winners will be granted safety while weaker links will be voted off one by one.
We have to win the next challenge, y'all.
Win challenges? We don't have to worry about voting each other out.
But what happens when the blue team goes away?
At this point, none of us are safe. What?
Are you joking?
Hi.
Friendships will be tested.
Everybody on my team is a threat.
I am unable to play the mind game of this.
It's survival, right?
I've got to scheme a little.
We have to start thinking who's going to be a threat.
Lives will be lost.
Oh, my God.
This is not a vacation.
This is a competition.
Oh, my God.
And ultimately, only one person can win.
I just can't believe Patrick would vote for me.
Get over it and learn to trust me.
Get over it!
You never really know what human nature is going to bring out in people.
Nine days, 12 people won champion.
This is Survive Block Island. It survived block Island
That looks so good this was absolutely a mate
It was absolutely an amazing experience to film it was a
Marathon it was really long sessions like, I mean like
all like full like, did full days and then some for a week. It was I think every day 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and it was all filmed from like home. So you're you're at home, which was actually nice to be like in
your own space for it. But I saw some comments thinking it was machinima.
That is all live.
Yeah, we were in there playing the game.
It was filmed, I think, with a mod in my craft
for cinematic view.
And so they had camera men in the show
that were invisible to us who were also filming it.
We were recording our own perspective too, which I don't
think they ended up using because they just
wanted the cinematic version of it.
But it is such a phenomenal show.
Trevor's been so excited about that for so long.
I'm so glad I got made.
I've been excited because when we filmed it,
we could only see our perspective, obviously.
Like you can tell from the trailer,
everyone's kind of like playing the game
and like running their own thing.
So like now to finally be able to see it and see the other perspectives and see what
else was going on is absolutely great because we had like you said it was 10 hour days where
we were just like very focused on our game and what we were doing not really only being
able to guess at other things that were happening and other things that were out there on Block
Island in the bigger world.
Well, I've been reviewing some cuts of it just for notes and stuff like that.
And it's so cool to see what happened on the other team, too, because you're just with
your team for part of the show and then people are off on doing individual things together
as they go off and strategize.
And so being able to see what everyone's doing behind the scenes is really fun.
And it's weird to think that I met people that we work with in this production,
like filming Minecraft, spending hours together, that I've only briefly met.
Or maybe I haven't even really met in person here yet.
Yeah, I don't think you guys had met BK or Joe at that point.
I'd met BK once very briefly when she was visiting Achima Hunter.
She stopped by our space and then left.
I saw her for 15 seconds, I think.
But you can see I also just shot you.
Do you betray her enough?
In Minecraft game now.
It was absolutely great.
And just to reinforce, I see people still talking about it in chat.
Yeah, it was all real time in game.
Like it's not machinimated.
We were all in Minecraft playing Minecraft.
Yeah, and that's our audio over what is actually happening
at that moment and just, it is very...
And then they would like pull us away
to do like talking head interviews.
Like, all right, like, talk about your strategy here.
What's going on, you know?
What do you think so and so is doing right now?
And like...
My favorite part was sometimes, just like,
especially the first day or two,
it was still getting kind of ironed out
how everything worked.
Because it was a very complex production.
Because we had a discord that was using proximity chat
and things that were yet to get interviewed.
So they'd pull you into different channels and all this stuff.
And I remember at one point, I was talking to some
of my teammates and all of a sudden,
they pulled me and transported my character
to do a talking interview, but didn't warn me.
And so from their perspective, they were just like talking
to me, they're like, Barbara?
The rapture happened.
It just snapped out of me.
Yeah.
The weirdest was like, when the proximity chat stuff was going on
It's like you'd be looking down doing something like you think someone's behind you and you're talking to them and you turn around like oh there they're gone
Or like did they get are they doing a talking head or did they walk away because like that would happen to sometimes like you'd be in the middle of something like oh shit
I'm getting backstab right now
Like it's happening to a real person.
It's tough because it's just like real survivor.
Where if you're like, if you want to go walk down the beach
with someone or like go look for food with someone,
you could do that and it would take you away
from the chat with everyone else
so you could actually talk in private.
But you would also know that they're not there.
People would see that and then sometimes they would follow you
to keep you from getting that privacy
because they would see you physically walking away
Just dig down dig underneath you can listen well not even they would just like hey, I'm gonna come to you
So I season two there you go. Was anyone ever you good?
It was it was it was a lot of fun. I'm really excited for it. How April 7th? It's so soon. It's so how many episodes?
I don't know if I assume I'm allowed to answer that but yeah, there's so soon, it's so- How many episodes? Nine episodes. Nine?
I don't know if I assume I'm allowed to answer that,
but yeah, there's nine episodes.
More than one.
And also, a lot of people watching right now,
I know you guys are like some of our greatest audience members
and community members.
Please spread the word about the show once it does start,
because I really do think that it deserves so much love
and so many people should be watching this,
because it's honestly so good.
I also remember a time where I've been more excited
to watch something that we made.
Yeah.
I also want to give a big shout out to Trevor,
who is the host of a...
And he also created the show.
Yeah, and I think he did a great job.
He did a phenomenal job.
I don't know if it made it into the final cut,
but at one
point when he was explaining a challenge, his color blindness kind of came into play. He
was like, describing what you were going to do. And then you jump on the purple thing over
here. And then I was like, Spinning, you're like, looking like, what? He's like, oh, wait,
is that not purple? What color is that? What are you talking about?
It's really phenomenal. Trevor did, Trevor and the whole team who worked on it
did such a great job.
Just coordinating everything and just really making
all of the cast feel like super immersed
in what was going on.
And I think like, even if you don't watch Survivor
or any reality TV, I think this is still so,
what's the word I'm looking for?
Like enchanting and captivating.
Captivating, yes.
I like the idea of it as well
because the first episodes of Survivor
are usually pretty ropey as you get into know everyone.
But when you already know so many of the people in it,
it's gonna be like,
that's also what makes playing survivor
with all your friends very difficult.
Because you're like, I don't wanna have to like
backstab or vote out my friends
because then I have to work
with them all day, every day.
I think everyone was trying to like compartmentalize it.
It's like what happens in the show is obviously not a
reflection of it.
It's like when you play board games.
Yeah, your personal relationship or your working
relationship with people.
It's like, yeah, you're in the game.
And I felt like I was breaking.
Like like like having to maintain.
Sorry, I laughed at that.
No, but having to maintain that level of concentration and like that disconnect from your actual life and like being so focused and mentally engaged for so long was like I just I was just getting loopy just like oh my god
I have like so many spinning plates that I'm trying to balance it's intense. And they know it's like to be a Twitch streamer. I think just eight hours a day, pissing in bottles.
There you go.
I think you said something.
It might have been like the commentary for season one of Red Vs. Blue.
So I write the beginning where they're like counting to three to run away from the tank
and Simmons leaves early.
And you say something like, yeah, I mean, in real life, I would do that.
I'd sell you my best friend and I would sell you at in one second.
I remember that.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that.
Oh, school.
It is really just engaging
and so interesting to watch too.
Like even watching the cuts,
even the stuff I was there for,
I still wanted to watch all the way through
and like just really,
I was just like, even the editing is great.
Sorry, I'm like,
I could gush about the show forever. It was just very fun to be a part of it.
We'll be able to finally fully talk about it
and experience it with everyone.
April 7th, which is this Thursday, but next Thursday.
Yes. I think if also if you are going to the achievement hunter tour,
there may be something special for you to see there too,
but I'm not going to give away.
Take it still available, rtxofit.com.
You can go there too.
Are we going to have anything special here in Austin?
Yeah, he invited me.
Yeah, Kerry will be there.
Yeah.
Thanks.
I mean, yay.
Maybe we could show what they're showing at the podcast.
Yeah, I'll show anything.
Apparently, yeah, just give me something to show.
I'll show it. Yeah. But yeah, so I can see some anime
Probes in anime. Yeah, yeah, we'll just watch five-week ago
Awesome. I do hope that we do a season two though because obviously there was only
12 people in the season so there was a bunch of people
Like you guys who didn't get to be a part of it and I don't get it would love to play more Minecraft
I think I would love to be in that well you like survivor love to play more Minecraft. I think well you like Survivor.
Yeah. Which is why I think you would like it so much.
And some of the challenges were really cool and innovative.
They were very like some of the things were very reminiscent of a real survivor challenge.
Yeah, some of them were like very Minecraft knowledge focused
and some of them were very much like survivor focused.
Yeah.
I'm gonna say that Trevor, I'll eat someone. Is that my camera or is that my camera say that Trevor, I'll eat someone.
Is that my camera, which is my camera?
This one?
I'll eat someone.
I don't know.
I'm just going to say to all of them.
I'll eat someone.
I'll do it.
Pull me on the next season.
I'll eat someone.
He'll do it.
He would do it.
Yeah, for any amount of fish.
But I was going to say for a fish.
I'm super glad that we got the okay to show that and that we're able to-
It's true.
We'll-
To experience it with chat here.
Yeah.
I think it's so much more fun that way to like see the reaction live to something.
I think that's one of the reasons why RTX is so much fun for us is like you actually get to see how people react to something instead of just reading comments about something.
Like when we show stuff from Ruby.
Which by the way we should talk about like this, like that.
And we have an anime.
The huge announcement that Ruby is an anime in Japan.
I think while we were doing this, Jeff Yetter made a community post with even more details
of it. So that got announced last week, into last week.
And I don't remember how, but somehow I had heard the name for the project at one point,
while it was being worked on, and I got mad.
I was like, why did you tell me that?
I'm going to say it by accident now.
Now that I know it, I'm going to say it.
So anytime it got brought up, I would be like,
no, no, no, no, no, no.
I don't wanna talk about Ruby at all,
because I'm just gonna say the name.
It's just gonna come out.
Well, now you can.
It has been Ruby Ice Queen.
It has been.
Even now, I feel uncomfortable saying it.
That's why I still didn't say it
when I was talking about it.
Eight years, this has been like,
at least in the works of some degree.
And I've just been like, who can I tell?
I can't tell.
I can't tell believe you guys have been holding onto that
for that long.
It hurts.
Eight years?
Well, that's actually for real work.
Yeah, yeah.
It's been in the works for like, yeah,
right in eight years or so,
but I mean like really, really like talking about the deal,
getting the deal figured out,
and then actually in production for last like F-4.
So cool. So cool.
So yeah.
We're really excited.
I think Jeff and I just posted a community post
if you want to hear more about it.
It is one thing I will definitely make sure to say
because every case asking is not a retelling.
We're not just redoing the show.
There's a lot of speculation.
People wondering what it is.
Yeah.
I will tell everybody now that the first couple of episodes,
the idea is like, if you haven't seen Ruby,
you can definitely jump into this.
So it'll look very familiar,
but then it's gonna do its own thing
and it's very good, and I'm very excited.
So I don't know storyline, the specific
of ice-queendum.
So I wanna try to ask, no, no.
I wanna ask a question,
but I feel like it'll put you on the spot.
If I can't answer, I'll just say I can't answer.
So you talk about how it's not a retelling,
but the first episodes might be a little familiar.
It makes me think of the Evangelion movies,
end of Evangelion, where it's like,
the first Evangelion movie is kind of a
retelling of most of Evangelion, and then it's like the first Evangelion movie is kind of a Retelling of most of Evangelion and then it's like being start changing and then it's like it opens up to like all new possibilities and
A new story. I would say this is more I think that's a decent comparison
I would say that is a little bit different because like that is like a
Continuation of the story. This is more, try to figure out what I can say.
This is more getting the audience familiar with Ruby
if they're not for a couple episodes
and then telling a side story.
More of spin offy kind of thing.
So it's not like, but it's also, yeah, it's complicated.
And the thing is I don't want to give it away
because it's going to be better if you just watch it.
Is there a time machine?
No.
Is there a time machine?
In a time machine.
Maybe.
Yes.
All right, well I think it's about time for us
to go ahead and wrap this up.
So I wanna thank everyone for watching.
Don't forget, next week, April 7th,
Survive Block Island.
We did a whole podcast. We did a whole podcast.
