Starting point is 00:00:00 It's time to put your pedal to the metal. From the twisted minds behind Deadpool and Zombieland, an executive producers, Will Arnett and Anthony Mackie comes the new Peacock original series, Twisted Metal, a high-oxane action comedy based on the classic video game series. Anthony Mackie stars as John Doe, a motormouth outsider who must deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. If he can survive the drive, also starring Stephanie Beatriz, Samoa Joe, Nev Campbell, Will Arnett, and Thomas Hayden Church.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Twisted metal, streaming now, on P-Cock. I Fucking paranoid about my people you know I listen to that before and I didn't realize that the hook was don't be so male Don't be so man. That's our old old joke about the was it skate three? Skate three, have they don't be so mayo achievement? Oh, that's right. They really remember that. Yeah, they had one of the sponsor achievements and it was a miracle whip achievement. It was don't be so mayo. Ironically, the achievement was very mayo.
Starting point is 00:01:41 You know, I have people might to this day, my personal comments telling me not to be so mayo. And I saw in video what the fuck it means? Oh, there was that commercial right that they did for what is that main brand of mayonnaise? Miracle whip? Miracle whip where there were like the Twitter, what was that joke? It was like, it was an if they commercial. Do you know what I'm talking about? Nope.
Starting point is 00:02:00 Nope. So I will find it. Just because it was on the commercial doesn't mean to make sense either. No, it doesn't make sense, but that was the joke likeL did that don't beat it to the mayo or whatever like no like Twitter It was just some like next generation of mayonnaise trying to like capitalize on Do you know what I'm talking about like social I will find this for you guys I'm so sad to report that if you look up don't be so mayo on Google we are the first and the third link associated with it. Yeah. The first link is Jeff and Jack gives you give you a few tips on how to pull off
Starting point is 00:02:30 the Murrokel Weapons Gate 3 and then there's videos about that on Facebook and then the third link is Roussier Chief about Don't Be So Mayo. So when you have now cornered the market, we have now taken over the Don't Be So Mayo search on Google. So whose voice is still cornered the market, we have now taken over the dumpy-so-mayo search on Google. So whose voice is still hurting from the RTX weekend? We're all sounding like this. My voice is totally mayo. From there.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Still keep smooth. Yeah, no, we had our first annual RTX event here in a- First, ever. First, what I- First ever. Oh, because you don't like first annual? First annual is not a thing. Yeah, yes it is. If we're gonna have one next year, then now it's first annual. We have one next year, because you don't like first annuals. First annuals, not a thing. Yeah. Yes it is.
Starting point is 00:03:05 If we're going to have a next year, then now it's first annual. No. If we have one next year, it's always our first ever. But are we going to have it annually? Yes. Next year will be second annual.
Starting point is 00:03:13 Same thing. What does that mean? I think you know. So I think it can't be annual if it's first because it didn't exist before. But if you plan on doing it every year and you commit to that, doesn't it? Once, starting with the second one, it can be annual
Starting point is 00:03:24 because it's something that happens every year. See, I think that. It hasn't happened every year. Maybe a to that, doesn't it? Once, starting with the second one, it can be annual, because it's something that happens every year. See, I think that hasn't happened every year. Maybe a little bit too little. Does it count that we're already planning RTX here too now? Right. We just had a meeting planning next year's event. Planning the second annual RTX. Let me ask you a question.
Starting point is 00:03:36 Were you one of those guys, too, who said that 2000 wasn't the beginning of the new century? Yeah. Were you really wondering what was going to be gilding me? I didn't give a fuck. It doesn't matter. Sounds like you give a fuck about that. Let's talk about it now. Was 2000 the beginning of the new century? I don't think so. What was it? It was it's like when you count from one to a hundred. It's one hundred. It's the last number in the old series. 101
Starting point is 00:04:00 is the first one. No. Yeah, but the second you move into the new century, it's the new century. So right after midnight, it's the new century. All right. Because your indecent moles at that point and it still counts. That I'm not as passionate about. So if you make a million dollars, are you a millionaire or only a million one, then you're a millionaire. This could cause a lot of problems and a lot of things. Probably. Hey, speaking of a millionaires, not to get away from RTX, I'm sure we'll be talking a lot about it on the podcast Since Joel since you're on the podcast today. This is Bernie Burns, by the way. I should introduce myself. Bernie ghosts
Starting point is 00:04:31 I'm gonna introduce Gus. That's Gus. Joel's over there. I'm Griffin. Yeah Still so I keep reading everywhere dire economic predictions dire So Joel very quickly what should a person do in these horrible dark times with their money? Switzerland. I also read the Switzerland is now there now. Go yesterday this week, gold traded all time high to the euro and I believe the Swiss dollar is at all time high. I'm not sure if I'll ask the
Starting point is 00:05:03 question I'm bored immediately. How does that happen? I'm bored immediately. So when you say it's at an all-time high against the euro, is that a reflection of a positive for goal or a negative for the euro or both? A little bit of both. A little bit of both. Euro's going to go down.
Starting point is 00:05:19 Usually the pattern has been gold trades all time high to euro, then it trades all time high to dollar. Well, it's been the pattern. Greece just on, was it the same Greece and bailed in you bit or the EU and bailed in you bail out I'm like watching a Animal die slowly and it's just like just put it out of its misery what Greece the e Greece and then the EU but yeah It's just just die just it's just like rolling. No. No. Now we're gonna restructure it now. We do restructure now we do this no it's not gonna work I don't know the Chinese did step up and buy Greece bonds though which is very surprising which is like you can buy bonds in a country
Starting point is 00:05:55 I guess it makes sense like the Greece like the US Treasury bonds trading at 20 at 20% return on your money on the Plus Greece is selling like a lot of public land, aren't they, and like government buildings and things like that, trying to raise money? That's what I hear, it's not. I'm actually not. I'm now as a great time to get a new Greece. You can buy Greece. You can buy Greece. Can you buy Creece?
Starting point is 00:06:14 Isn't it Creece part of Greece? I think that is part of Greece. I want it. So where the hell is Belarus? Where is Belarus? Belarus? Belarus. I don't know where Belarus is.
Starting point is 00:06:22 It's way Eastern Europe, right up against the former Soviet Union. I believe so they did an interesting thing where they took their own currency And they devalued it by 56% overnight So essentially what they did is they took their own debt and cut it in half by just saying our money's worth less So yeah, that's kind of what we're doing yeah kind of we're just We're just like, oh, we can't pay you back with these dollars. We'll just make more dollars. We'll just make the dollars worth less. What is the national debt up to now? 13 trillion.
Starting point is 00:06:51 If you, if you, it's about 13 trillion unless you include Social Security Medicare. If you include Social Security Medicare, then you're about 60 trillion. You're $57 trillion. Bill Arrus is on the, that shows you the difference between, you know, Social Security and Medicare. Bill Arrus is on the... That shows you the difference between social security and Medicare. Bill Aruse is on the western edge of Russia, north of the Ukraine, south of Lithuania.
Starting point is 00:07:11 You say western edge of Russia? I don't even know what Russia is anymore. Like. Yeah, it's always a foggy thing. It's just East of Poland. It's just like... It's just East of Poland. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Between Poland and Russia. So it's like a bad neighborhood for Poland. Yeah, I know, can I say it's like the bad neighborhood for Poland. Yeah, okay. The opposite under the tracks like Poland's the nice neighborhood. Yeah, it's like you really took a wrong turn in Germany. Right. Is that the best way it works? So US national debt clock. I'm going to take exactly what the national debt is right now. 14 trillion 364 billion 462 million 607,202 by the time you finish the sentence you're already like tens of thousands of dollars wrong. Is that true? Yes. Let's say I went off
Starting point is 00:07:54 I'm gonna hold up a scary how much proportion is that? It is right. It depends it depends it depends for like tax paying they have broke down tax paces is like 50 That it's somewhere between 50 thousand dollars in and a hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Yeah, why is it between like they just divide 14 to like some reason whenever they when they bring that statistic out. I don't know why they do it this way, but it's like people who pay taxes. If you pay taxes, then you owe. There are people who don't pay taxes.
Starting point is 00:08:21 I don't know why it's. Oh, yeah, there's lots of people who don't pay taxes. I mean, but they're not in prison. Lingerie. The play is one of them, apparently. Interplay doesn't, you don't have to pay taxes if you don't have money. I guess that's what it is.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Yeah, exactly. If you lose money somehow, they said the average debt here is $46,000 per person in the US. So guys, come on, step up. Time to time to chip in. Pay your money. pay the debt off But interplay Gus and I would just not were just talking about was the okay, let's see if we can explain this in a way That makes sense okay, so there's the franchise fallout, which I'm sure you're all familiar with right?
Starting point is 00:08:58 No, you don't fall out fall out three you play fallout follow. Oh, yeah Okay, yeah, the thought it was something deeper than... No, yeah, yeah. The Fallout franchise, right? So, Gus, let me see if I understand this correctly. So Fallout was created by Interplay. Right. I believe they created Fallout 1 and 2. 1 and 2, and then Fallout 3... Bethesda, right? Yes, exactly. That's where it goes. So Bethesda has the rights to make the fallout game now. Somehow, when I'm not sure how, interplay kept the rights to be able to make a fallout MMO, even though Bethesda can make the single-plagage.
Starting point is 00:09:35 They weren't financial trouble a few years ago. So to raise money, they sold the fallout brand, except for fallout MMO properties. Because they wanted to hold onto that. Right. Right. Okay, so fast forward five years or six years after their financial problems, and now Interplay who's been developing this Fallout MMO,
Starting point is 00:09:55 which would probably make a lot of money. They now have $3,000 in cash. That's their cash balance on the books. And they have, what was what was it 2.8 million dollars in debt yeah which breaks down to about forty six dollars per citizen I think it's per per per point let's find is it what is it Joel what is that in bottle caps what is that sure what is that what is that what is that why are you gonna hate they've got you to quit bottle cap they've got this schematic for the Murph 5 launcher, so they'll be okay. That's right. I could tell how much is in seeds
Starting point is 00:10:30 We'll make it worse for myself. No, there was but I'm trying to look this up here because I had it earlier They they had it broken because I had to release financial statement. I wouldn't think the interplay was a public company. Are they? Oh, I don't know. Are they? It was an SEC report file that or this came out. That must be in the public. Yeah, yeah, must be in the public. And they said that $3,000 cash and they're 2.8 million dollars in debt. Yeah. Yeah. That number includes roughly $239,000 in promise compensation that has not paid to the company's board of directors. Well, that's refreshing that the board of directors wasn't paid. $410,000 in unpaid federal taxes and penalties since 2008 and $80,000 in unpaid California
Starting point is 00:11:12 state taxes. So they have, they have not paid about half a million dollars of taxes that they should have paid. So in interquestion, who doesn't pay taxes in your play? In your play does not pay taxes. And they have $3,000 in cash. Gus and I worked it out that Their employees
Starting point is 00:11:27 Individually are probably more solvent than the company like each I would hope so three thousand dollars to three million dollars in debt I mean what is that like a thousand to one ratio, but just in their cash balance three thousand dollars So what do you hold on to at that point just spend the three great? So what do you hold on to at that point? Just spend the three grand. Yeah, I say you have enough money. It's somehow worse, right? To have only $3,000. Yeah. Seems like it's just going to create arguments. Like, if you've got nothing, there's nothing to argue over. But now, who gets a $3,000?
Starting point is 00:11:58 They don't have one final pizza party and that's that it. That's right. That's right. And the employees can ship in for the cook. So, I mean, I'm sorry. That's right. That's right. And the employees can ship in for the cook. So I mean, what I'm sorry. So this part of the company, they own the, just the, they own the MMO. They own the MMO. But they don't own the, they own the franchise.
Starting point is 00:12:16 So the, like the game you played that you don't remember in any way apparently. Right. That is not this company. They just own the, okay. So they could even just kind of like draft behind Bethesda who's making a very successful franchise. Yes. I mean, Fallout 3 was,
Starting point is 00:12:29 it was a big call hit. Is the name of Fallout worth like, you know, $3 million. It's worth $3,000. When you use the MMO context, it's worth a pizza party at this point. Basically, a really nice pizza party. I bet a Fallout MMO IP is probably worth $ million dollars. I'm sure someone's gonna buy it MMOs are weird though because you never know MMOs are either juggernaut
Starting point is 00:12:51 Cash cows or they go away after about a month or two true and they take you know It's one of the things where it's I don't know the economics of it, but it seems like It takes a lot of effort to create an MMO and then it takes an even more phenomenal effort to maintain that MMO. Even if the game they've made is shit though and it's totally awful, I'm sure a bigger developer will pay through million dollars just to get the rights to do that and they'll just redo it themselves. I would say, listen, I might have some assets, you know, at this point. Yeah, I'm sure it's been money on. I'm sure. I wouldn't be sure. I wouldn't be sure.
Starting point is 00:13:25 I wouldn't be sure about any of that. They got a Roomba. They got to tip the drivers of something. The company seems to be pinning its hopes on financial survival on licensing out owned properties with the filing noting new entries in the battle chest, clay fighter, dark alliance, earthworm gym, MDK-2. If if only this was 1996 they'd be okay. They also own descent
Starting point is 00:13:51 Wow I mean a lot of these are like I don't remember I wait on the 386 I was so much trouble playing to set my computer was a 46 SX 25 megahertz and that game was so complex I had to scale the size down I literally played like in a little poster Stab size resolution on my monitor because I couldn't get the graphics to work any higher Descent was a game where you flew a spaceship in your mind and you fought other Spaceships inside the mind. Yeah, it was like that just makes sense So familiar and you would pick up power ups would be like blue and green floating balls Oh, is this one and if you hit the wall would you die? Is that I think so I'm sure that's a no
Starting point is 00:14:33 I mean come on. What kind of spaceship could it possibly be? I like that they took a spaceship game And they said what's the one thing people hate about spaceships? It's probably that space Let's put them in a tunnel It was it was a huge game at the time Probably that space. The eight, let's put them in a tunnel. We can tie our time. It was a huge game at the time. It was very, like, had a lot of, like, cool 3D things at the time that your iPhone can probably run circles around now. But when you talk about spending that, like,
Starting point is 00:14:56 that last $3,000, Joel and I are going to Vegas next week. And you might see Interplay. Yeah, they might be like, they might have their cash balance on Black. They should give us the remaining honey. We can do something with it. You could. I couldn't.
Starting point is 00:15:13 We'll see how it goes. I went to the boards last time. I went to the boards last time, man. What do you mean? Joel's a very good gambler. I try and count cards on playing Blackjack. And if you know, he doesn't, I don't know why he said that. You know, I'm not near him when he does that. Yeah. It can work, but sometimes it doesn't always work. But basically if you've got like
Starting point is 00:15:32 a plus 10 on a deck, that's a good thing. If you got a plus 20, that's a really great thing. If you got a plus 30, that's amazing. I was playing a deck, dude. We're kind of to plus 48. And everyone around and I just went I went after it man I just went after I started laying down money or laying out more money and everyone around me kept winning winning winning I just was the guy to say who wasn't gonna win and took me to the cleaners it was pretty painful but I have been there when he's doing this and when he gets really high in these counts and he starts betting a lot of money That's when the Five foot four Italian pit boss
Starting point is 00:16:09 Comes over and stands right next to it. I'm glad we're telling the story on the front side of the trip because we're smiling We're happy about it right now. I don't know what's gonna happen. I thought we were gonna have been a back room It gets awkward. Yeah, it does when the dude is staring a hole in the side of your head for 20 minutes, and he'll go, I'm gonna cash out. I think I go, thank you for coming. And like just stairs it in the whole way. Put the burlap in the back over his head. I keep going to, I have no idea how much I should say. I could go to playing Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:16:35 And like I was good. Stop talking now. I don't care anymore. But it's like I was playing, I was doing it, it was working, it was working, it was working. And some weird like good weird sharp dude and his suit all of a sudden like Sit down next to me. Yep, and start playing next to me and then start striking up a conversation with me
Starting point is 00:16:50 That's sort of like forced conversation. Well, you're kind of hot Yeah, it wasn't I Hopefully it wasn't that God, but yeah, yeah, then slowly he was like so why are you? Why are you why do you keep changing the amount of money that you're betting? And I'm like check check please, check please. That was it. I was like, I'm out. Like, my money was gone. I left.
Starting point is 00:17:08 That was me. I'm sorry. Have you ever seen that movie The Cooler? I never saw that movie. I never saw that movie. I never saw that movie. I never saw that movie. I like to stand movies. I wonder if he was that kind of guy.
Starting point is 00:17:17 Guy who shows up to just, he's just a jinx. He's got bad luck. He just, he put it next to hot players. Just, just freaks me out. Just freaky. Yeah, it's weird. It is a little weird when someone comes. It's next to you and it starts asking you about your gambling habits. Yeah. We're like, Hey, what computer are you using? Yeah. Yeah. Why are you tapping your foot like that?
Starting point is 00:17:36 The one thing I hate about going to Gamble though is the interaction between the other players. Like a lot of times I'm need to go to Vegas with my wife and she likes to go. But now she's the point where she doesn't want to bet on Blackjack anymore. She doesn't want to go to Blackjack because there's always the Jackass who blames her because she just bets however she wants to.
Starting point is 00:17:56 This is something that has got to be addressed. Like certain people think that like, oh, if a person in front of you takes a card, oh, they've messed it up for everyone. Taken my queen. Yeah, yeah. And you've cost me money. How about this, you make a,
Starting point is 00:18:08 don't bet at the $10 table with my wife. Yeah, don't be, don't be the guy counting cards or working the, the betting card at the $10 table. It makes, it's, it's, it's, it's, we have to put a stop to that. It makes it, it's totally irrational. It's awful. It makes no sense whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:18:22 It makes me uncomfortable. I wouldn't go, like, I've, I've been asked to go to Vegas, like Jeff's like, well, when you want to go to Vegas, I am just not into gambling. It's totally irrational. It's awful. It makes no sense whatsoever. It makes me uncomfortable. I wouldn't go. I've been asked to go to Vegas like Jeff's like, well, when you want to go to Vegas, I am just not into gambling and I think there's an intonation factor. Have you ever been? You've never been. No, I haven't been, but I do think you guys should go.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Well, I can tell you based on just going into playing poker, camping with friends that I'm terrible and I know that I lose money, but I think that there's an intonation factor like, and if somebody started giving you shit at the table, I think that would just be the end of it for now. You just gotta have a friend with you or someone on your side. Like a friend and a suit, boring holes in the people. No, this is not been pitched to you correctly,
Starting point is 00:18:55 because you're going from a gambling aspect to all that stuff. It's a bunch of good-looking people from all over the place, dressed up really nicely, and all completely drunk the entire time. That's what Vegas is. Basically. Would you agree with that? Sure. Why do you so it's all good looking people? Who's keeping the ugly people out of town?
Starting point is 00:19:11 Don't go in the bus. If I don't go in the bus, I'm going to go. There's a line in the sand. Do you not go to X-Calibur? Yeah. Do you not go in that area? Yeah, because that sounds like unrealistic. I don't know, but I say that, but then Austin's full of a lot of good looking people. I don't know how it, you know.
Starting point is 00:19:24 It balances out. The ugly people just stay home. They order room service. unrealistic. But I say that, but then Austin's full of a lot of good looking people. I don't know how it, you know, it balances out the ugly people just stay home. They order room service. There are even wings at the Hooters Hotel in Casino. Well, I would like to go just to see some shows. I was sorry. I saw this thing on Discovery Channel or something. We're about a program there where is there a university in Vegas? Yeah, I think so. I think what it is, you know. You know the UNLV, yeah. You know, they've got like a science alongside art program where like people will come up with like these ideas
Starting point is 00:19:51 like a toaster that shoots like fireworks or something like some crazy show thing. And then they have the science side. This is perfect for you. It's not that it's something weird. And then they have like the science side figure out how to do it and put it incorporated into a show and like figure all the like the science of it. It's kind of interesting. That's right. Then you're Ali. No, but I think it would be cool. I think that aspect of Vegas would have healed me more than like going and losing all of my money.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Okay, there's more than you know, he ambleders, there's other stuff of Vegas. There's prostitution. Well, not in Vegas. Not in Vegas. Just women holding science. No, men hold cards. No, they've got to have girls with numbers. Yeah, not in Vegas. Yeah, none of that makes any sense to me whatsoever Like the dude's handing out the car. I don't I don't really do be comfortable where it's like it shows you a picture of like the perfect Center full like that. I can't imagine that that's what would show up. I just can't imagine that I imagine something with like
Starting point is 00:20:38 Three arms and I don't really have a comment They keep scared of all of they keep scared of all. They keep all the ugly prostitutes outside of town because they ugly people, like they're all... I don't know, man. They're all at the blog here. That's where they are, Joel. But we were trying to convince Jack to go. Because he's going to be in E3.
Starting point is 00:20:58 I'm coming back from E3 and I'm going to go to Vegas. I'm going to go back from E3. And I know Joel is the one guy where I say, hey, I'm going to be in Vegas for one night. Why don't you come out and Joel's like, okay, I'm gonna be there. So, Joel will be there for one night, and then also two nights. More, that's the way. Yeah, come on.
Starting point is 00:21:10 You gotta get your money back after you use it. So we're trying to convince, and here comes Jack, just in time. So we're trying to convince Jack to go, and he's like, oh, I can't go, I don't wanna, you know, I wanna spend the money to go. And then he looks up the price of the ticket from LA to Vegas.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Oh, he's not gonna buy Vegas. Yeah. And he looks it up, it's $ of the ticket from LA to Vegas. Oh, sorry about Vegas. Yeah. OK. And he looks up.

If you think Vegas subsidizes that flight, like the city council and whatever, like that, I know I used to fly out of John Wayne, which is the, the O.C. Oh yeah, the airport up up in the valley.
Starting point is 00:21:52 And they actually have like terminals that are like painted with Vegas stuff. And they Vegas ads. Like it's literally just a flight from there to Las Vegas. So the only thing that flies out of that terminal. Wait, is it John Wayne Santa Ana? No, no, that's up north. It's up north. It's up north Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:22:04 No, no, no. What? Yeah, it's a John Wayne airport. No, John Wayne airport Ana. Uh, no, no, it's up north. It's up. If you ever go to LA with the people and you go to dinner Part of the experience of going out with people in LA is you stand in a parking lot outside It's hard and you go how are you going to the restaurants like I'm gonna go the 405 and see you're Challenge Challenge and everything and LA it's a fight you're not you're this way that way You got figured out you're gonna do this way that way It took us two and a half hours to go six miles to see you know a guy who makes the drunk take it You guys talk about it. Did you guys talk about which way you're gonna go before you went? No, we stupid We trusted Mac. I had a similar experience one time we were out of the commercial shooting the valley Jolene I were out there and
Starting point is 00:23:00 And we were like okay, we got to get to the airport it started raining we got stuck in traffic it was only like six miles it took us like two and a half hours right about 15 minutes into the drive Joe goes I'm going to sleep and just fall asleep next to me and just leaves me alone and fucking traffic in the rain for two and a half goddamn hours I know that I know that can be very well I know fucking stick head man and like I was so angry just like the water was like steaming off of the car. I remember at one point I did wake up for a second because one of the warning lights started going off. I was like, is that a warning light? I'm going to make a man. So anyway, Vegas next week. So what are the things we did in
Starting point is 00:23:37 terms of is like you go back to this $3,000 and cash to interplay has? It's like $29 to fly from Los Angeles to Vegas. One way. Somehow it was more expensive to not go. It's like $29 to fly from Los Angeles to Vegas. One way. Somehow it was more expensive to not go. It's like the amount of money. Well, you lose more money. Just exist like the calories you burned. Something. I don't know. I don't know. It's like paying for air. You take that flight. If you take that Los Angeles, if you take that Los Angeles to Vegas flight Friday.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Yes. I know. It is the greatest flight ever. I hear that the good flight on the way back Sunday not as good no, I love going to the airport when I was in LA and seeing those flights out to Vegas on like Thursday and like Friday afternoons you can see the working girls who are going out to work at the club weekends and stuff is like oh yeah, I know what they're doing. The ones wearing nine inch heels, you know, waiting for the Southwest flight. Yeah. You could be on that flight? I could be on that flight. It's not a flight on like a Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:24:30 Yeah, on a E3, like bus in a way. Yeah, you don't want to see those. Like, I have a lunch meeting that's at 2 o'clock, so lunch meeting lasts what, maybe an hour, hour and a half at the most, so at 3.30 I'm free. So, at 3.30, what's your flight? Yes, I have, because I had a book, I had a book of flight at like 8.30 I'm free. So, if you're booked your flight yet? Yes, I have, because I have booked a flight at like 8.30 pm,
Starting point is 00:24:48 because I had no confidence that I could get from a restaurant to the airport in less than five hours. You could show up early, you could also stand by and just try to get on an earlier flight. You don't think a lot of people know that. You don't really stand by, you just walk up and say, hey, I have a ticket on a later flight, can I get on this one?
Starting point is 00:25:01 They're just like, yep, get on, especially Southwest. Well, send me your information, because I haven't got my flight yet. So I need to book mine. Are you going to come back to me? I'm going. Don't let Kim hear that high five. Okay.
Starting point is 00:25:14 So do you want to give him a shit about talking to your girlfriend and making her feel bad for him? I feel terrible. You should. I feel terrible. What happened? So Jack owes me. No, I don't know you shit.
Starting point is 00:25:24 No, I'm more terrible. Jack owed me about $400. No, because of a trip that we were gonna go to Vegas You canceled on because I was working invisible snow. I was working. I have a job I came out you were I have a job where somebody calls me that I got to work and did you work at all that weekend? Yes, no you didn't dude like on Monday. I had to jump on a plane I was out of town for like a month and a half No, you didn't dude like a Monday. I had to jump on a plane I was out of town for like a month and a half I don't understand the basic transactual here. He canceled the trip
Starting point is 00:25:48 I remember the trip we were all going to Vegas We were going to visit Mike flight was canceled because of the snow minutes of snow on the ground It all said it literally went by the way I wound up in a ditch that morning just so I crashed yeah Yeah, snow last the level it was actually decent for us by noon. It was gone Yeah, but we just had we we were the one flight that was canceled Good morning, okay, and then he'd Joel here decides I'm just not gonna go I have other obligations Whether or obligations, but he's not gonna go how the fuck Jack do you owe us $400 for?
Starting point is 00:26:15 Can't he canceled the trip? I put I put the flights on my credit card and I paid him the money because that was We booked him together so that would be it was be all on one thing and then he gave me a check for however much I was never John me for about three months not anymore You used the credit and it was in your name after I heard the story of the $30 ticket I was gonna be like okay great. I'll just book my cheap ticket and I'll give the rest of the money to Kim Yeah, so Kim can go and My flight was way more expensive
Starting point is 00:26:43 Well, cuz he saw my flight from else. Yeah, he's an idiot. And so he's like, ooh, $29. Not the biggest. I thought it was universal. One flight that all costs the same, right? So my girlfriend had... The difference is we're gonna be $600.
Starting point is 00:26:55 She has a normal, real, 9-5 job. And so, you know, and Bernie's like, well, Inviter, if she can go, Jordan will go to, they'll be great. They can have fun. And it'll be awesome. And I'm thinking, there's no way she can get a week off work, you know, or like, you know, time off work a week before going on a trip. And so I was like, I was gonna offer it to her,
Starting point is 00:27:12 and be like, if you want to go, it'll be awesome. You got, you guys are the most scary people. He's like, go ahead and put it on your calendar. You're going. Come on. No, I'm not. Pressure into it. That's not.
Starting point is 00:27:20 And so I was like, I don't apologize. I'm like, I'm sorry, Joel. I got a bunch of like angry text messages last night So anyway, I was gonna offer to her you know fully if it happened awesome She thinks she thinks it's gonna be like a vacation happy fun trip and trips of Vegas are not happy vacation Fun trip so you are a trip for you have to focus you get again The thing the thing that my Joe what I worked so well is that he'll be sitting there concentrating on the cards and I will just be sitting there drunk and talking to the dealer non-stop.
Starting point is 00:27:51 And he likes it because it slows him down and I like talk to the other table and he Joe likes the fact that I can slow it down. I'll just walk up to the table like you don't know each other like when you sit down first and the fight goes later the other one shows up. That's just so you really get in trouble. You use the team system that don't do that. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Some of the people who just want to talk about you guys Nice. I don't know what the fuck they want to talk about just look like a lunatic Like this. He's good at that in Vegas. Yeah, actually. I've never seen Joel happier in my life than the time we spent in Vegas last time We went which is actually for him. So like there's a funny what 24 hours Yeah, what Joel's up in Vegas. You'll never see a happier Joel It's like a stock market Joel and that's the same thing. Yeah, it's like short-term stock market Joel
Starting point is 00:28:44 Same exact what happens Vegas stays in Vegas, so we won't get into it But all right, well, thanks Jack. I wanted you to come in all right I'll do you know we're actually in the middle of horse right now, so I'll go back to that So oh yeah, thanks for having me on all right Bye, so the The funniest announcement I ever heard on an airline was on that Friday night flight from LA to Las Vegas because the flight attendance know every one of the flight is already drunk before they even get on
Starting point is 00:29:10 it. And the Southwest flight attendant had one of the funniest like safety spills. At one point she actually said in the event of Cavendey pressurization the mask will drop. If you're traveling put your mask on the bag will not inflate. If you're traveling with. If you put your mask on, the bag will not inflate. If you're traveling with a small child, put your mask on first, and then assist your child. If you're traveling with more than one child, rank them in order of potential and just work your way down the list.
Starting point is 00:29:36 I thought that was one of the funnier things I ever did. Of course there's not a kid anywhere on that flight, but everybody's laughing their ass off, because. But they're secretly taking count. That's a totally secretly figuring it out. Which one's gonna put me in the home? Which one's gonna support me? Exactly.
Starting point is 00:29:51 You can be able to consider that with your kids? I wonder. Because you know, but yeah, I think the parents, as much as the parents, they, I don't play favorites. I think they do. I mean, there's like studies saying that like, first ones usually get more resources and like Because they deserve it. You know, well, you wonder if the parents have said as a firstborn Will your parents have more energy on the first kid than I do the second kid?
Starting point is 00:30:12 Yeah, but then there's reason that like the youngest usually get baby, do you know like? I don't know they tend to get more spoiled and then at that point the parents are usually better parents to they've learned a few things Yeah, or they just stop paying attention. That's what happened to me. I drafted behind my brother for 18 years. I think it's my... Your brother is a bit of a troublemaker, right? Exactly, yes. So you didn't cause trouble as much as he did.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Well, you could also argue that they paid closer attention. You know what I mean? And that's how people get in trouble. You know, he was under a higher level of scrutiny than I was. I mean, we were only two years apart. Yeah, my older brother is like three years apart and he was an utter hell-raiser. Yeah. And yeah, I mean, to the point where he wound up, you know, a military academy. No, yeah. That's sort of deal. Yeah. So I'm
Starting point is 00:30:51 going to friend. You got sent him military academy. It's crazy because he, his parents come smoking pot in high school. And yeah, it's a big deal. Like you should punish your kid. They sent him to this like military camp in the Midwest. They took out a second mortgage on their home to do it. Do you remember the name of it? No, I'll find out I can find out for you if you want um, and he came back like six months later he had missed out on we uh my high school had like a college grant You had to graduate to get it He had been at the school for years and years and years and was gonna set to get this grant paper his college And so sending him away they took out a second margin mortgage on their home
Starting point is 00:31:20 They screwed him out of his college money and he came back way worse than he ever started because he was hanging out with thugs all the time. He came back into harder drugs. Yeah. Um, I pissed off at his parents where he wasn't, he wasn't before. Like it did not help him. I find the situation is like, they're almost like a higher education for criminal activity. It's like, right. Someone can be, oh, like I busted for something and then I went to prison and then I really learned how to be a criminal. You know, or I'm waiting to be killed. I don't know what I was doing. I was just a rifle. Now I know how to shoot. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:31:49 I've been trained. Now I have a crew that I know. Yeah, and the same thing with those military academies, too. It's like, yeah, for sure. So I know Jeff's not here today, but I actually had a weird thing that came up. Gus, I guess I'll talk to you about it. Hit me. On Dead Rising 2, I've been playing a lot of that lately.
Starting point is 00:32:04 That's like my current treadmill game. I played that. And, uh, so do you care about the. On Dead Rising 2, I've been playing a lot of that lately. That's like my current treadmill game. I played that. And so, do you care about the achievements in Dead Rising 2? I don't care about any achievements. You don't know. OK. Well, there's one in Dead Rising 2, where it's called like zombie food or something like that, where you have
Starting point is 00:32:15 to kill 1,000 zombies. They have all those stupid kill counter achievements. Right. There's one to kill like 72,000 zombies by any means. But this one I was going for was one where you had kill like 72,000 zombies by any means. But this one I was going for was one where you had to kill a thousand zombies unarmed. So hand to hand combat. Which sucks because you know, the whole game is based on weapons and combo weapons and you're just in your punching these zombies. What do you want to keep on my distance? You can't even use like a blade or like the what chain stick or chains on the stick or anything like that. Nothing. It's very handed.
Starting point is 00:32:43 So what you can use is special moves that you get as you level up. One of them is this flying kick that you can do. Just a jump kick. So there's a problem with that. In that, I was reading tips on how to do it. And I guess just in a natural build of the game and when they were developing it, the female zombie are slightly less resilient than the male
Starting point is 00:33:07 zombies. They have a lower health. And so you can kick, do this jump kick, and kill the female zombies in one kick, and it takes two kicks for the male zombies. It's just like right at that level, right? So you're having like targeting females. I'm literally running through a crowd, getting excited when I see a female zombie because I can find And and it's just like I'm embarrassed by that
Starting point is 00:33:32 I'm just like I'm like what am I doing? It's like this horrible experience like it's bad enough that we're playing the zombie game and everything And now it's gonna my wife's gonna watch it and be Watch me run through a kind of zombies This brings up the question right now. What's're a zombie. You're not a person anymore. That's right, right? I said you're not male or female Let's not reverse engineer comment though what you're saying there. So you're saying that like if before there's zombies Yeah, that totally makes sense You should. Right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:34:01 You're going through the crowd kicking. No, wait, see, that makes logical. This is a thing, a spiral of death. Do you even talk about this kind of thing? But I was very disturbed by that. I wish they had not done that. No. When you become a zombie, I think aren't the powers
Starting point is 00:34:15 all across the board supposed to be the same? That's a Joel's say. Yeah, right. I mean, what's the point? I mean, it's like, do you not have to, you can only kind of shoot them in the head? I mean, you have the same baseline abilities. Well, I guess you don't.
Starting point is 00:34:27 That's what it is. It's a different starting point. Well, you still have that. I mean, are you talking about whether or not you're the strength should matter when somebody's on the side? Right, they should be the same. I wouldn't think so because it's the same body
Starting point is 00:34:38 that you're working with, even if it's got some kind of... But the disease takes over and then, you know, creates this super scary... Allow me to be perfectly clear if live or dead if somebody runs to a mall and jump kicks me in the forehead I'm going down I won't need this second kick You know that this is actually very relevant discussion too because we have who is joined us here This other voice that is joining us is Kathleen who plays the voice of text. Who in Red
Starting point is 00:35:05 vs. Blue is our most resilient character and a female? Does all the kicking. Much kicking. And I don't fancy the men or the women. I'll just kick them all. Doesn't matter. They all go down. I noticed at RTX I see a lot of photos in the photo gallery that we have, which you can find at Rischartee.com slash RTX. There's a lot of photos of you punching people in the balls. Were you recreating episode 10 from last year? Yeah, everybody wanted me to... Really? ...because of, you know, everything I did to Griff. And so, yes.
Starting point is 00:35:37 I bet you're just working out some anger. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah, some pent-up stuff. No. And that was like the highlight for them to actually see that. To get punched in the balls. Yeah, yeah. Why didn't actually, you know,up stuff. No. And that was like the highlight for them, to actually see that. To get punched in the balls. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I didn't actually, you know, there was no contact.
Starting point is 00:35:49 There was no show going on. Don't knock it, Gus. Sure. Now, to each their own. So did you have a good time at RTX? I'm. RTX was fantastic. I think overall, it's been the most phenomenal event
Starting point is 00:36:03 and interacting with everybody. Yeah, it was a blast Well good For comparison Kathleen goes to you go to mainly comic con you've been to a few packs. Oh gosh I've been to yeah conventions and RVBTO and can west You've been to some of the small ones. You've been to some of the big ones. even to some of the big ones. That's what I'm saying. I mean, here's the thing. I don't want to, you know, kind of diminish how awesome the other ones are.
Starting point is 00:36:31 No, do it. Yeah, okay. Fuck the whole one of the brothers. But no, this one I think was absolutely the best. I had the best time. It was exhausting, you know, I mean, I think I didn't stop talking and, you know, and and hand shaking and kicking and you get a flying jump into a pool of shooting a water gun at people. That's
Starting point is 00:36:49 right. That was a highlight for me and really I had I've seen like several angles of that. I think I have to do some slowmo on that or something like that. I get a slowmo guys to work on it. But and there was no alcohol involved. I figured you know what what better to do and dress with with makeup on is to jump into a pool with a pool. If there was alcohol, you probably would be falling into the pool. That's true. Speaking of the new alcohol involved, we had a meeting to some of RTX today and everyone was everyone in this to everyone in the staff is like, well, I don't think I had two beers. You know, every single one of those must have been the two strongest beers in the motherfucking world. Everyone got fucking plastic. I don't know. I don't know. I had
Starting point is 00:37:23 I had way more than two beers. Yeah, no. I don't. You were the only one who stayed quiet during that discussion. But I felt like it went smooth for me. You were, I mean, it was all. Well, here's the funny thing about you and the Jeff pointed out to me. He's like, Joel, he will get wasted on his first drink. But then he can drink 20 drinks and maintain that same level.
Starting point is 00:37:39 He's not going to get more drunk. You know what? Focus. Focus. You got the nests. You got the tablism in the order? Yeah, once you get to do a plus 20 then you really start to get to that. I think I've settled in a new drink because of RTX. I think I've settled on a gin and tonic as me. Gin and tonic in a great summer drink.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Yeah. See, you know, the problem is when people start bringing that moonshine, because I know I can have maybe two, three glasses of wine, that's kind of the limit at a quick type of period. But when they pull out the moonshine and this other stuff that doesn't even have a name and they want to do a shot, and I'm thinking, this is not good, this is go downhill. So I try to say no sometimes, but once in a while,
Starting point is 00:38:20 you take it and you're thinking, why should I go back up to my room quickly? Yeah, we, someone from the site brought us a couple bottles of moonshine. And one of them was this bottle of moonshine that has cherries in it that have been soaked in it. And the next time we do a video podcast, I'm going to bring it if anyone wants to try to eat
Starting point is 00:38:38 one of those cherries. They're more than welcome to you. You're lower. I ate one. It burns. It's literally like fire going down your throat I don't understand what the whole like I feel like all I hear about now is moonshine being brought to people Ring and moonshine and moonshine like when did that make start? Yeah, we know when did they come back into fashion and it's I understand in the past like during the
Starting point is 00:38:56 Prohibition it made sense but now we have great drinks that we can get any time we can go and get a gin and ton and get any time Why would we eat like a We can go and get a gin and ton and get any time. Why would we eat like a cherry soaked in rubbing alcohol? You know what? You know what? Why not? There you go. I don't know why not to this.
Starting point is 00:39:11 Why not? Same reason why I just discovered Adam, who's our new Linux administrator. We wanted to go eat at this local Chinese restaurant and he took the jar of like crushed hot peppers and put half of that thing in his meal and I go wow I go you really like hot stuff because I love hot. I've one time we were at Chipotle and he had the chips and salsa the hot salsa and I guess he ran
Starting point is 00:39:34 out of chips so he drank the hot salsa. No he did. Yeah he picked up the cup of it it was like whoa. He grows his peppers and stuff too. Right. Oh that's right. What's that one he got from him. He has a cabinet in his house that he keeps just for hot sauces and he grows those ghost peppers. Bukalokia. Yeah. Which is the. Where is that on the chart? It's like a million. It's like a million plus goville. The closest thing to it is mace.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Oh my god. It's pepper spray. That's the closest thing to this pepper. And I put that on all my food. Yeah, I just missed it a little bit. Oh man, I you know, I can't even imagine we hitting the face with Mace. Because I, once I'm gonna... Yeah, I've been doing with Mace. Have you really?
Starting point is 00:40:11 Yeah, yeah. Is this something you want to brag about? How's that? I got... Oh, sorry, I should clarify. I got Mace by... It was a total misunderstanding. She didn't understand what I was saying.
Starting point is 00:40:18 I got Mace by a security guard once. What were you doing? Man, it's a... I'm a state college. You told me, ow. You Man, it's a domestic college. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You told him, ow. You know, there's a stick it on the boot jolokia thing. There's a wing place that opened up by our house over there in Hancock.
Starting point is 00:40:31 It has boot jolokia wings. Not really. I'd like to try. I've never had one before. They have a challenge to eat like 25 wings. Shut up. They have a challenge to eat 25 wings in 10 minutes. And if you can eat 25 wings in 10 minutes,
Starting point is 00:40:43 you get $10. $10. $10. And a picture on the wall. And then what happens to the your insides at that point? You put the 10 on top of it. You put a cup of milk right here standing by. You know that? You're insides get to pose in the picture with your hands. That's right. You just don't work if you're lactose and tonal or it's part of like I hanging it with mace is the shower later. Oh, god.
Starting point is 00:41:08 It reactivates. It just comes from everywhere like your hair and everything and just spread. I was once in a large room like it was a choir, like in high school, like the choir room or whatever. And so many of you just as a joke sprayed like one mist, but we had to clear out. And like when we went in like all day, I was like, everyone would be choking. Just one mist in an open, huge room. I had to imagine getting and like when we went in like all day I was like everyone would be choking just a one missed in an open huge room I can imagine getting right in the face of the eyes. Has anyone here been that a taste? No, no
Starting point is 00:41:32 Sounds like for the video podcast Emergent shit I've been here with the cattle brought us a joke. Oh, that's like mint taste hilarious. I love that joke It's so funny. It is a great joke. What's the punchline? There was a guy There's a guy in California. They'll get taste and and he died it was I knew yeah, that's one person that ruins it I don't want to be that taste person I heard about this one guy who got shot
Starting point is 00:42:01 Well, because usually I'm that person I like they always say say, oh, one in a million people that has that. Yeah, yeah. And it's always like, it's the type of interrupt people's heart beat or something like that. Right. Right. See, I always think that I'm that person, but nobody's that person. Nobody has the weird reaction. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:42:16 It's like, the weird thing like that statistically that ever happened to me is like a hospitalized once for Poison Ivy, but that's it. Oh, no. You did. You got it. You was a when you were in college, right? Yeah, we were setting up a party, and we had to cut down all those bamboo to do it, and we didn't know if we were carrying these big stacks of bamboo,
Starting point is 00:42:35 and I had Poison Ivy over it. So I got it completely on the inside of my arms, like that. And then, I think then, of course, it was like a jungle swamp party. And so, after I had the poison every action, I still went to the party anyway and like, who got it with the hell, wasn't that water? You know what I mean, like just grossness. So, it got pretty bad.
Starting point is 00:42:52 I got hospitalized for a couple days. So you swam around and like, like poison ivy swamp water? Yeah, apparently from photos you posted on Twitter, it was like Jack's pool water. What the fuck were you guys doing? Oh my god. Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:43:04 How huge are you, to even think about that? I was the designated driver. Oh, I was the last to get this. It was as bad as it looked. It felt worse. Griffin only had two beers said that. No, actually, Caleb was like the designated driver all weekend and whatever.
Starting point is 00:43:19 And he was so over the whole weekend. So I was like, OK, now I will take the bullet this time. Take the bullet. I'll deal with you. I'll deal with you people without being drunk. So no, it was pretty slimy, but at this point, we had all come to Jack's house for this pool party and it was like the polite thing to do to get into the guest line. So to like peer pressure, he is like no one else I've never known in my entire life. I was worried about hurting his feelings.
Starting point is 00:43:40 He just signs something, he's just like, everyone, we're gonna have hot dogs. And then that's it. He's just gonna peer pressure everyone and like before you know it everyone's eating hot dogs I just don't understand it. I've never seen anything like it. It just like works on you in ways It's just but you're out of the tech there was nothing safe or Reable or correct about the pool and we would all go there was like nine of us and one of him And all nine of us would be like dude dude the pool is weird. He would speak well filter like I got the filter on guys. It's on now no All wound up in the pool and it was the best the best worst part about it was that it was it was really warm
Starting point is 00:44:18 So great We're all it's like he's somehow convinced people to get the pool They don't know what happened, but they're in the pool, but they're not gonna sit down in the pool Yo, just standing in it on the pool. We were just standing but Jack's like no sit down You must sit and then I know I get in the pool and I leaning against the side I got yelled at because some of the waters fills out. It's like let's keep this water Whatever you do. There's something about I don't know what it is
Starting point is 00:44:41 He said he informed us though that since he has to he actually turned the filter on it's a lot better now And he hits his rash now too. It's like it's about to be dark and it'll look clear then That's retarded Don't make fun of him. You're just as dumb for getting in there. You're not up. I didn't say we weren't stupid The water was green the pictures that you posted on Twitter was like told me more people that I used to like He told me it was same pattern. Oh my god. We were convinced we would get superpowers so we followed through. We thought we were still waiting. Yeah, that worked out for you. And then, and then, and then you all know, I went home and I
Starting point is 00:45:16 forgot to shower. I don't know how you did that. How do you do that? I did it. I was a long week. I didn't feel human until I showered is a long I was like laying in bed like for an hour I was like what is that smell? Fucking gross fucking like I was like algae they say algae is good for the environment after you took your shower to jellies wash your sheets after you've been laying on the Dr. Althe Walsh and good point so I would take a damn Why don't we all remember to call Joel and remind him tonight? You know I have to say that
Starting point is 00:45:52 There's we we had a very good event with RTX and we've been to a lot of different conventions and probably the Stinkiest convention we ever went to was the very first packs. There was a room. I don't know if you remember it does Oh gaming room. You couldn't approach the room because it was they did a thing where the first couple packs is they were open the room because they did the thing where the first couple of packs is they were open 24 hours. So people could be in there playing all night. So by the second or third day, which means if you can, then they will. You literally like, you had to like, the room was so stinky. If you went into it, you had to like, lean forward to get through the sink like, push you out of the room. Yeah. And so that being said, our convention was awesome. Our fans were great. But you always have the one or two people who just don't Get it. I don't know why I don't know how you don't
Starting point is 00:46:30 What is that how do you not just I don't think that it's conventions? I mean that happens every day And I mean if you go to any kind of large crowd, there's always gonna be somebody like the percentage is higher at conventions Typically I know I get a convention day anywhere. I'm not saying I'm out yet. I'm anywhere Yeah, yeah, I know I'm gonna run into that. I'm not talking about it. It's got anywhere. Yeah, yeah. I know I'm going to run into that person that day. And they're going to want to touch. Do you think it's an age thing?
Starting point is 00:46:50 Or do you think it's like the kind of things that those people have? It's like a mental defect. Mental defect. I think a lot of kids think it's a good thing. I'm done with that luxury show. Well, in the end of people tend to like, they're a little bit more hormonal than the rest of us.
Starting point is 00:47:02 I don't know. No, I remember I was at a Dallas convention and my hair was down and this girl came up and she hugged me and her armpit, like my hair went under armpit and it smelt my hair reaked until I was disgusting. Did you just cut it off? I wanted to. Just burn it. No, but it's like I think and they are sometimes you see the signs that say, you know,
Starting point is 00:47:23 bathed. Don't forget to babe So that being said how what do you do? What do you how do you tell somebody that take a shower? Yeah, you may some yeah for breezum This picture is so fucking funny. Oh, I would never have gotten into that. That is so That's been photoshop that's definitely going into the link. I'll Photoshop swamp in with you guys. Is that a rubber pool? I like how we're all smiling. There is a nail waving. Look, this is seven people before they're doing that. I think we're all so
Starting point is 00:47:57 exhausted that our brains probably just weren't functioning at normal capacity. We have with the bacteria colony that took over your skull The monster within soon you guys will have those like worms coming out of your head Yeah, I think the bacteria everyone in that pool is actually has been taken over What felt right at the off-guard? I gotta say to you one thing. It's one thing to do it It's completely different level the tweet about it. It was funny. We're talking about it now Public information never it's never coming back. up there. It was funny. We're talking about it now. Public information. I think funny. It's never coming back.
Starting point is 00:48:26 Yeah, hilarious. It's like the cattle prod joke. So you know, it never was an eight-con all those years ago. I think they made that phony discrel video. Yeah, yeah. They have the rules of the con. And I think every other rule was take a shower. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:39 So just take a shower. That's all we're saying. Take a shower. If you're in doubt, just do it. Yeah. And if you think we're talking about you specifically, we probably are. Yeah. It takes like five minutes.
Starting point is 00:48:49 It lasts for a while. It is. You're right. The only last couple of things. Also, we also tested the patients of our attendees in one or two ways this weekend. We had a couple of very hot weather. We did a couple of outdoor events.
Starting point is 00:49:04 We did an RT production that they participated in, which was a they were troopers, man. They were awesome. They were so awesome. They were fantastic. But it was hot that day, you know, and they put up with a lot. It was about 15 to 20 degrees hotter than it should have been for this time of year. Yes, it was. Yeah, it was hot.
Starting point is 00:49:21 And then at some point, and I don't want to, I mean, I don't know how much we've talked about, but a lot of people had like corn syrup on their arms. We asked them to lay down in the like itchy Texas grass. We're like watch out for fire ants everyone. We had signs of like this would have fire ant hill looks like and they were like everyone lay down. The ants only took one person. Which is better than we expect. There was more than enough for the colony.
Starting point is 00:49:42 The corn syrup made it really realistic, The blood drip, it was pretty cool. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, you know, a lot of those guys are younger, whatever. And it's like, if I'm there age, I'll do it. You know, that's all good. I don't care. You know, when I was at age, it's like, I don't care. I will sit out 95 degree with or just bother me at all.
Starting point is 00:49:59 And Joel did an awesome job with the megaphone. Like, wrangling the, they were so ambitious. pretty like once somebody gives you a megaphone really hard to give it up. Power. Yes. My voice is greater than your voice. I'm like I'm never giving up. I had the same problem for a while on Sunday. I was trying to organize people into buses and I was like I don't want to give this back. I can see I ran into that because I walked up to Joel and I said I wanted to tell the crowd something and he said Joel the holding my hands Hey, let me see the megaphone. I'm the one to tell him something and Joel's like talk sit
Starting point is 00:50:28 And guess what do you want to tell him? I'll tell them I'll convey it for you Yeah, but you did a great job. I'm actually surprised to you to notice anything about the shoot on Sunday because Monty bought his friend By and all of No cashmere were suddenly very distracted. Jason what? I don't know what his last name is. Jason I didn't met.
Starting point is 00:50:50 Jason I just want to name Jason. Madonna Jason. Yeah, so Monty brought his gay friend by. It's very nice to meet him. He'll never work here. It's like you don't realize how I'm thinking of myself. I don't realize how unattractive I am. So that guy walks in the room. It's like I'm invisible how I'm thinking of myself. I don't realize how unattractive I am. So that guy walks in the room.
Starting point is 00:51:05 It's like, I'm invisible. I don't know what I'm gonna have. Here's the thing. Here are people who are like big, rude, deep fans. They're very, very, very bad. Oh, it's gone, jolt of things. This is weird, it's weird, it's weird. But I fucking think about that, guys.
Starting point is 00:51:18 I don't know how many years of like, like my friends from Texas state or whatever, they're like coming in to do bikini shoots or whatever, that you know, we have to do what those women, and the one time we get a hot guy in the room, I was like, well maybe we can get him do some acting and we're like, for actors, you're no fucking way. Right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right,
Starting point is 00:51:33 I don't want the competition. It's like, guys aren't, you still have a competition. It's like, yeah. Women have to deal with that constantly. Well, it's probably because he was a serial killer, we didn't want to do this on the floor. It's our incredible record. Don't look like a liability. Oh, you guys. You know, plus he was a serial killer. We didn't want to do this on real life. It's our incredible record. Don't look like a liability.
Starting point is 00:51:45 Oh, you guys. No. Plus, he's homeless. So. No, no. No, no. No, no, no. I couldn't disagree with that anymore.
Starting point is 00:51:54 You guys are way worse than we have ever. We've never done anything like that. I mean, we could do the bikini shoot that one time. No, come on, whatever. Every time there's some cute girl, we have to hear about it. That's true. And yet, there's no example. Oh, here's another whatever. Every time there's some cute girl, we have to hear about it. That's true It's every time. Yeah, there's no example. Here's another example. Recently you did some voice acting auditions for actresses Who apparently all had to be super models to be a voice actor? They were actresses. We didn't we didn't know what they were like to
Starting point is 00:52:16 They showed up. You had head shots come on guys. I saw a stack of head shots. You like this. I hope her voice is good because it's girl Come on guys, I saw a stack ahead. Jotty like this. I hope her voice is good because it's girl. Yeah. Oh. Clearly you're painting me to a corner. What's my favorite? What am I going to say?
Starting point is 00:52:29 Oh, yeah, but we only hired the all good ones. What's my daughter's going to be? But I mean, it all fairness. I mean, we were testing if they could, it was one kicker, two of the face. I'm just giving you shit because you're giving us shit. I'm fine with it. I understand how the world works.
Starting point is 00:52:41 I just wish you guys. And like that you can, and just it's just interesting to see how men react to it It's kind of you you're married. So it's over for you You're if you're married you're happy Like the single people really is a single people so what you're married you're dead to the world you can't look no Right your dead to the world you can't look no no my that's it so right that's right you're gonna pedestal you're off the market if I were married I know that would be amazing you know I
Starting point is 00:53:09 see I think that like I think having crushes as a married person is way more fun because I I can maintain them for years without finding out the somebody like finding out some of the shithead oh absolutely it's so great like I can have million crushes I don't have to do anything about them and I don't have to find out the
Starting point is 00:53:22 people suck it's great which the inevitable landscape is always a deal. All the upside and all the light down of like, oh, this person is a human, this sucks. Yeah, because you find a person that you can live with and that you can be married to, which is great, but then you can still, you know, like look around and not have to actually mess your life up every three months or so. Every three months or so. It's a very good way to put it.
Starting point is 00:53:43 So Joey, you're the only person in this room who hasn't been married. I have not been married. I don't, yeah. Joel is still alive to the world. Speaking of things that are over, is that you're never getting married? Probably, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:56 It's hard to say, right? What's been the big hold up? You just haven't met the right person? I don't even know if you're dating anybody now, and you're sitting here crying, listening to the spot catch. God. God. God. It's possible. I don't even know if you're dating anybody now and she's sitting here crying listening to the spot catch Let's just let's take your current relationship. I found this one girl. I found this one girl who was Smoking hot that's the first thing smoking hot and she was great Everybody but I was it was it was bad timing for me because she happened to catch me during a period
Starting point is 00:54:25 where I was like in a super work hole. And when you're in the super work hole, there's not a lot of time for anything else. So it was an awkward time. And then I actually brought her over, I shouldn't even tell the story. I burned her to the office and somebody was sitting in the kitchen with somebody else
Starting point is 00:54:43 and I won't mention any names, burns, but I can't see it because you call out her name in a not good manner. I was like, oh God, that's gonna cause problems. I call that her name in that good manner. Not good manner. Like what did I say? Like, see ya!
Starting point is 00:55:00 What did I do it? What is a not good way to call her name? Not to blame anyone or anything? But I don't understand what happens so wait a minute I like the perfect girl and I said her name weird until now It made it made it awkward. Okay, I made it awkward. So it's to me. I don't understand explain this because I like the world's greatest wingman Thank you very much. Thank you very much. So she came over here. I don't even know you're talking about How I know how I know her name?
Starting point is 00:55:25 You have to know now. Hey, that's a cool computer. You have to. Here's a thing, Joel. And you are an adult. And you've had a long time. Like we've all, you know, been married. I'm very. You can't blame Bernie in the last like six years or a month or year, whatever. No, no, no. I believe only for that one instance. Only for that one person. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, whatever. No, no, no, no. I believe for that one instance, only for that one person. No, no, no, no. Other than that, he's got free. So why should we connect with her?
Starting point is 00:55:49 Why don't you reconnect with her now? No, it's none. I still don't understand what I did. I said her name. Fault to Fault. She came in. She came in. She obviously had...
Starting point is 00:55:59 No, no, no. You were one of your moods. It was all messed up. She obviously had to point her out of her life where she settled down to Joel. No, no. So that's of your moods. It was it was all messed up. She obviously pointed her life where she's settled down to Joel So that's established this is the baseline then she comes over to her office She realized he doesn't have a real job. So it's like then where they're okay with that as well She comes in and I said her name did I say the wrong name? Did I say the wrong name? It doesn't matter. Oh that would be good
Starting point is 00:56:24 But you bring a good point the point point is the rest time. Somebody should bring a good point. The rest time. The rest time was probably my fault. The rest time was probably my fault. You feel like you're in high-end time. That's not the last time a relationship is in there. I'm very, I'm very, I'm very high-mate. God, you've got it. I'm very, very good. I'm very, very, very good. I'm very, very good. I'm very, very good. I'm very, very good. I'm very, very good. I'm very, very good. I'm very, very good. I'm very good.

I'm very good at this. I'm very good at this. I'm very good at this. I'm very it worse for you and me. Really? Yeah. Oh.
Starting point is 00:57:05 It's gonna make it worse. I think I made it worse for both of us. It's not a sexist line. I mean, you've already got, you've already crossed the sexist line on this podcast. Let's not make it worse. What? Kicking female zombies? That's not sexist.
Starting point is 00:57:17 I'm rallying you to do that. You're already sexist. You said he didn't like that. And there's zombies. You said they're not people. You can't be sexist. I was trying to defend him. I was saying I didn't like that about the game. You don't like that.
Starting point is 00:57:29 You had to do it. Just thinking if I didn't solve you, trying to get the G-Met. Think of it. It's a video game. It's a sexist. Think of what happened though. If I'd said the zombies' names were wrong. They're horrible.
Starting point is 00:57:41 They're horrible. In a weird way. They didn't even unbelievable. Hey, Zom, baby. I'm going to come back to my place. I can't imagine what this story is so Joe the reason you're not married is because I said a person's name because of Bernie That's why dude you're outsourcing You're out I don't know how anyways why are we talking about this?
Starting point is 00:58:02 You started it! Hey you're're telling me RTX, RTX is this amazing event You were talking, you were Joel Goddamnit when you say RTX don't say it like that Yeah It's now we have to cancel the whole event It's Ertux, everyone knows that
Starting point is 00:58:19 One syllable, not three Ertux God I can, you please have to explain this to me off the. I have to know what I said was it a tonal thing I can't I can't emphasize the wrong syllable is horrible Horrible is so bad it was so bad was like that sign filled episode her name rhymed with a part of the female Right right right. Say it wrong. Did I say the wrong name? We shouldn't all right all right Okay, you more than save me let's wrap up this very awkward podcast with a very awkward
Starting point is 00:58:50 ending. Now, now, see, now this is only going to make things worse for me. Stop. No, we give us the ability to edit. Guest, don't please don't hit this out. So let's talk about RTX for next year. We've already had a planning session for next year's RTX. Yes. We had about 500 session for next year's RTX. Yes, we had About 500 attendees at this year's event correct and you can see like we said before Dallari is up at Rushi.com slash RTX and if you have photos from the event Please upload them as well so that everyone else can see them But next year we're hoping to take the event to about four to five thousand. Yeah, that's a good good number to grow to yeah That's a that's like what excuse me. That's 10% growth
Starting point is 00:59:29 It's 10 times bigger which is about 10% and And so we're gonna do that next year and we're even thinking about moving the date of the event to get away from a Memorial Day weekend Yeah, we'll investigate some dates and see what we can come up with. I'm hesitant to say anything concrete Yeah, well, you know if people have any thoughts, maybe they can come talk it. Yeah, if they want to email us and let us know, you know, what month works best for them or they can join the Wershirti community. Why don't we just ask everybody? What's the best day next year? It's the way we get back. Yeah, but it's a huge day. Yeah, they can they can join the site and join the official RTX group and let's have a discussion. But yeah, so we think we've decided less fire ants next year, right?
Starting point is 01:00:07 Is that like you know, I'm just a list heat stroke. Less corn syrup. Things we really liked about the event we love the Friday night event, the mixture at the in the ballroom. That was awesome. The screenings where we showed 20 minutes of RVB and then a 30 minute real of shorts and live action productions, including a new junk tank anime adventure with Joel which was fucking I'm a struggle I get myself in that one I don't know depends I have a spine we did that and then
Starting point is 01:00:35 we did the production we want to keep the production so and then the office tours but we're not going to be able to do the office tours no we can't feel that's crazy yeah but it was a lot of fun I'm glad that people got a chance to come by and see, you know, the place that they've seen in all the shorts and the video podcast So it was a lot of fun I'm really grateful to everybody who came out. I know everybody is to all the community members who came out to the first annual event We had a blast and we've got nothing to deposit. It's great. It's great. Great to meet everyone Any regrets about it all. It's just that we didn't do it sooner. I think that's it We should we should have done a couple years ago and started this thing off
Starting point is 01:01:06 But we'll be playing catch up pretty quickly here. I'm gonna unveil it right now are slogan for year two RTX 2 now with air conditioner That's a good slogan. Yeah, why don't you say RTX 2 now with annual? You know it's my biggest pet peeve when people say the first annual. There you go! Oh, there's my dance! You guys have finished it. Get out of here.
Starting point is 01:01:31 Biggest pet peeve. Nobody agrees with Gus Kathleen. Oh, how would you be the one to be on the same page with him? That's the survey. I've had it happen to be... How could I put it? Hey, Jeff. Jeff.
Starting point is 01:01:44 How do you feel about the phrase first annual? Jeff Ramsey, everybody. The phrase first annual is, uh, it's a misnomer, it doesn't exist. Oh, yes. No, I'm serious. I was a journalist, a professional journalist, five years. It's covered very clearly in the AP style guide. There cannot, there physically cannot be a first annual, anything.
Starting point is 01:02:02 You can have a first, some first, and you can have a second annual. How do you fuckers you'll be in Rome? If you're about to be a foregley. But if you intend to do it annually, and you can mention it, why is that impossible? It's the right case. It's a double double. I can intend to be an astronaut,
Starting point is 01:02:16 but I don't get to call myself one until I go to space, right? See how that works. Jeff, what is the AP style guide say about throwing female reporters under raiding phosphors to save yourself? I'm not sure. When you come in a friendly fire. The AP style guide clearly says that journalism is an every man or woman for yourself feel.
Starting point is 01:02:34 I feel no compunction or remorse for that. What Jeff was in the Army came under friendly fire, but they were doing a train exercise, and they shot phosphorous over their head. And burning white phosphorous. Burning white phosphorous that would have have killed them so he grabbed the female reporter that was with him through her out of the way until he could dive into the tank. Oh my gosh! To be fair, it wasn't a tank. It was a Bradley and I did not like her.
Starting point is 01:02:58 And to be even more fair, she had a wonderful funeral service. I'm too bad right? She was coming coming there all by all his dures. She was fine. And but it's also be clear. It's also be clear. It's also be clear. We've got a tremendous hospital in the Army called Walter Reed Medical Center. They can do fantastic things with skin grafting.
Starting point is 01:03:20 It was not a big deal. She turned that fight. Yeah. That girl, her husband went to jail for threatening the president I ever told you that story. Yeah, let me guess did he say the first lady's name wrong Weird away. No, no, he was just drunk watching the news one night and he he called up the White House and said I'm gonna I'm gonna kill the president was Bill Clinton and he got they hung up on him He got a call back from Seagal Service said sir. You do want to do that do not do that again. So he said haha fuck you
Starting point is 01:03:46 I'm gonna do it. Yes, and then he called them again is in Colorado So if he said within an hour There were dudes they like they were sitting there He was just drunk with his buddies within an hour somebody literally busted through like kick the front They were open and took him away. I think he did five years in jail. Wow wow. Yeah That's why she joined the army because she then had to make a living and she couldn't find work so she had to join the army to support us. Wow. I've always heard that rule. I've never heard it being applied in any way.
Starting point is 01:04:12 Yeah. No, no. Happened to her firsthand. And to get back at him, she banged every dude in the army. Oh my god. Wow. It worked out pretty well for her, I think. Burns and all. Burns and all. Even the only one with Jeff. Did you ever sleep with her? Did you just try to kill her? I tried. I didn I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure.
