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 a 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 motor-mouthed 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 now only on peacock Why don't you sing the achievement hunter song to intro our podcast Jeff? We need a song for our quarterly podcast. Are you gonna get an eagle in that? No, no, no I call out the tiger. So this is our 50th podcast and this if it makes it will be the second one we ever posted I'm excited. I think I have a feeling this is gonna be it. You can be number two today's the day I don't know if it's gonna be the juice. We don't like once a week maybe maybe once every two weeks And then we can I fuck it and we don't put it up. No, we'll record. We'll do the podcast for about 20 minutes And we're like this boring. This is stupid. I like it that the fucking phone rings
Starting point is 00:01:24 He's saying podcast What is this? I've been saying that today. I don't know why I think I've got some kind of problem. I guess it's I even take it put them on the podcast their podcast. What did drop a name? I got Bill Gates on my cell phone God damn it Joel Joel just walked in and spilled a nice Americano all over my lap. How did you know it was a nice Americano? Because I went recognize it's a nice Americana? Cuz I
Starting point is 00:01:45 Sit down you're finished now you have to be very sit in So Gus what's new with you? What have you been up to this quarter? Not much playing games. What are you playing right now? World of Warcraft like always and Godfather to hey, let's talk about something that we're both pissed off about You and I both like Godfather 2 a lot right? I mean I've only played about two hours of it and then you did all those achievement videos Which were fantastic by the way and are tearing up the internet I've probably played 20 hours worth of Godfather 2 I'd say and we read the game spot review who we usually look at as being like the litmus test of what a a
Starting point is 00:02:22 Game is gonna do yeah, right? How good a game is're usually pretty dead on and they gave that game a 4.5. Unbelievable. I think the game is not a 4.5. Absolutely. Other bullshit. All the other reviews I've read seem to be more in line with it. They're all, you know, in the 7.5 to 8 range. I think if I was a game reviewer, I'd probably give it, you know, an 8. I games an 8. It's a solid 8. It was fun. Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:02:42 I can't believe that. I can't believe that game scored so low. I mean, I'd like to look and see what other games are 4.5's just solid day. It was fun. Yeah, absolutely. I can't believe that I can't believe a game scored so low I mean, I'd like to look and see what other games are 4.5 just for reference that dude that reviewed it must hate the movies I feel in there. I can think or he must be a huge fan of the movie and was disappointed that the game didn't follow the movie too closely Story that's retarded. Well, I don't know. I'm trying to defend him here. I don't he might just be dumb Don't defend it's possible. I don't know the guy is he's probably got a family and as a nice guy and we're insulting him but fuck him I Red Joyce's review it today. They said it was pretty good They coined it their summarization was that it's like waking up on December 25th and remembering its Christmas
Starting point is 00:03:22 Yeah, it's good. I as a pretty good way to look at it It's a pleasant expecting it was a remembering its Christmas. Yeah, that's good. Which I, as a pretty good way to look at it. It's a pleasant expecting it. It was a very pleasant surprise. Yeah, good game. I'm currently playing Resident Evil 5 right now. How's that going? I saw zombies riding motorcycles on your screen. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:34 Yeah. Yeah, I'm like, can they do that? Can they ride motorcycles? Apparently. According to Capcom. Or. Yeah, it's Capcom. It's Capcom.
Starting point is 00:03:43 I got confused for a second that it was Konami. Okay, woo. Oh, you know, you know what? You were the other day asking, you with the other day were commenting on how Resident Evil is a stupid name for a video game. And I read an article today talking about why it's called Biohazard in Japan and not called Biohazard in the United States.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Why is that? Apparently, the name Biohazard was already copyrighted. Oh, they would have difficulty getting a trademark on the phrase Biohazard in United States or they would have difficulty getting a trademark on the phrase biohazard It makes sense. So they decided to go with resident evil also on the chopping block with probably like a Pretty school bus You could have been playing pretty school bus five pretty school bus murder Zombie choppers. I think of you whole game whole game on itself. It could be oh, man
Starting point is 00:04:25 It's definitely a definitely a Resident Evil game. I haven't played a Resident Evil game since Jesus, I don't know and I haven't beaten Resident Evil games since Code Veronica probably I played every Resident Evil game But same here. I never I never played for even though everyone loved it. You played a little bit though No, I never I never played for I've never picked up the controller and Resident Evil Really I thought we lived together and when I tried it you you were there. No, it looks so horrible. I never picked it. Yeah, I didn't like it at all. People loved the game. I thought it was hard. It was a bunch of like Eastern European dudes with pitchforks and... Sounds awesome.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Beers? I don't know. You don't expect this? No, there weren't. You need next-gen graphics for motorcycles. Yeah, it's true. They don't have motorcycles in Eastern Europe. Gamecube couldn't cut that. They burned them for fuel a long time, yeah. But anyway, I had forgotten about the obnoxious gameplay mechanics
Starting point is 00:05:08 of Resident Evil, like for instance, you know, your Chris Redfield total badass, like Special Forces type dude, right? Until it's time to stab somebody with a knife and then you're like, all right, I got a stop plant way from the company and then stab them. And I've got like, six inch radius. Well, everything in the military is procedures.
Starting point is 00:05:24 I guess that's true. It's just obnoxious to fight in that game and you can't walk and shoot. I've got like six inch radius. Everything in the military is procedures. I guess that's true. It's just obnoxious to fight in that game. And you can't walk and shoot. It was about us. You can't walk and shoot. No, no. Yeah, so playing wild, huh?
Starting point is 00:05:35 Yeah, that's going good. You know, I'd say this is the point in every podcast that we never published. We start talking about wild and then it just descend. Yeah, that's right. That's one of the things. We should probably avoid that. I will say that it's fun. One thing that's fun to talk about is the Bernie has been secretly playing wow again.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Yeah, he doesn't know that I'm watching him on wowarmory.com. I can see as he's leveling and I can see the achievements he's getting. Yeah, I've seen him playing in the office like Alt-Having in and out of it in the office the last three days. And he told me he goes the other day,
Starting point is 00:06:02 he said, hey, I logged on to wow, played for like 15 minutes and quit. It was just just same old games. I ever remembered it was dumb I got bored immediately. He's level three times. Yeah Amazingly 15 minutes you went from level 59 a level 62 Yeah, and it's not like he's he's leveling one to three or anything. He's 59 to 62 That's a good and he managed to uncover the entire eastern kingdom map Somehow in those 15 minutes in the the process of yeah not giving a shit. What are you gonna do? I wish he could just accept the fact that he is a wild player and loves the game. I mean dude I
Starting point is 00:06:34 play well a lot not as much as you for sure and but and I've I've taken breaks just like he has just because I'm not because I want to stop playing because I love the game just because other shit gets in the way you know night gr griffin's always making me work on stuff But I'm only level 43 44 Maybe somewhere on there in your defense you have like four level 30 characters. That's true I do I have a lot of I have a lot of characters to make you combine them into one super. I know like Voltron Yeah, the Wow Tron Well if you can get if you just you just have to get one level 55 then you can get
Starting point is 00:07:05 You can make a death night. You have two level 55 characters like instantly. Oh, that's can get, you just have to get one level 55, then you can get, you can make a death night. You have two level 55 characters, like instantly. Oh, that's a good point. I should definitely do that. Hey, look who's showing up. Is it Bernie Burns? Do you have a good phone call, Bernie? I did.
Starting point is 00:07:15 Good. You got a phone call. You got a phone call? I got a phone call. Yeah, a phone call. Oh, wait. Can we not do product endorsements? I think that's probably not.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Bernie has generic Mexican beer number two. I'm gonna drink, because I said next to my generic Mexican friend. So while you were gone, we discussed resident evil. We discussed. We discussed the bullshit game spot review of Godfather two. And we discussed your secret obsession with wow. And how you pretend not to be playing it, but you're totally playing it. Oh, back here?
Starting point is 00:07:44 Yeah. Yeah, I have, you know what I'm doing back here. I get the exploring achievement. We talked about that It's great. I just like set the horse. What is the deal in wow Where they have set up every world where you can't just find a straight line and run you will always run into something It's like the real world. Yeah, that's not always true I can get on the road and go basically a straight line a road that's been cleared where the mountains have been There's no highways and wow, but even their fucking roads are all curvy and stuff. Yeah, they're pathways But come on. I mean how many hills and trees and ravines and rocks do you need I get it? I get it, you know, just let me fucking run and get my free achievement stuff
Starting point is 00:08:19 So should we do a quick summary of what we've been up to the last quarter since the last podcast? Well, I won the contest first of all. You won't congratulations, yes, you won't remember this contest. I remember the 10,000 gamers won a week. I did it with three days to spare. Gavin came down and directed a mini series called Red vs. Blue Relocated, which is a smash success. Excellent.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Took the internet by storm. We made our first live action thing, which was called Captain Dynamic, which is also incredibly successful. The Nielsen numbers on that are through the roof. Yeah, they are. And that's pretty much it, I think. Yeah? I think there was a net gain of about 40 pounds
Starting point is 00:08:53 between the six months. You want to talk about the 401K at all? OK. Nice thing at the beginning of the years, there's always a lot of business, tax, awful stuff that has to take place. And there was a huge dose of it this year, awful stuff that has to take place. And there was a huge dose of it this year.
Starting point is 00:09:07 Which was fun. It's like we're real company. Yeah, almost. And it hasn't really ended yet, so that's exciting. We renewed our healthcare, wow, that's exciting. Shit to talk about. I got my tax turns back, that was pretty cool. I finally, yesterday finally, woo!
Starting point is 00:09:21 So I've been trying to play St. Croix II with Gav, and that doesn't work. I have really bad luck at picking gaming partners, because I either have a guy who's like in Northwest Canada and has the worst internet connection ever, or Gav who's now seven hours ahead of us. So when it's 6 p.m. here and I'm leaving work, it's 1 a.m. his time.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Why is he seven hours ahead of us? They like savings, buddy. Yeah, we hit, we were, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Savings. Right, I guess. I mean, it wasn't that much better here. It's like 1.3 American Daylight Savings, right? Yeah, it's both an hour and 20 minutes. It's about how American Daylight Savings is so fat. Basically. And we ate a lot of really weird, terrible food. We ate raw meat.
Starting point is 00:10:14 We did. We ate raw, what was that? Just raw hamburger meat with pepper. The worst kind of thing you can eat raw, ground beef. We ate it. In Europe, too. That's mad cow territory. It's called Oswurst.
Starting point is 00:10:27 It's an Amsterdam specialty. Or, as Bernie said, it was two waiters betting that they could out serve shitty food, made up food to. You know they jacked off all over your food, right? I think you did. It was like, thanks dude. You took it up a notch. It was from raw meat to get jacked off on.
Starting point is 00:10:44 We did not order the jizz worst, but thank you. No, but I swear there was like some other like Deeter was in the back there betting hans that he couldn't get us to eat, you know, raw meat for five euros. And it's sure enough we ate it. He had to do us a free, we didn't ask for it. Yo man, you're totally at home. He also. He's like, look, this is a specialty, it's a austwurst. No actually he tells us it was a special Dutch dish
Starting point is 00:11:08 It was raw ground beef with spices spice by the way is pepper yeah Black pepper and he said it's special I even asked them because I was suspicious I go. What's this called and he goes? It's called us worst You only made up that's totally his last name. He's like oh shit Like Deeter off to worst was It's name of his dog or his neighborhood or something. He also gave us another delicacy for free Which was a red peppers Shoked in like a swimming pool full of oil with some gross cheese in the middle and Bernie was the first to try it and he put one of the peppers in his mouth and
Starting point is 00:11:46 Bid into it and three gallons of oil came out of his mouth and landed all over Sure, it was hilarious. No, no, no, it was like I love oil So I'm pretty sure with oil. I don't know. It was pretty funny to watch because it was like it was like when a kid gets braces on and then has their first You know, he's like all over Better after watching Mike's no I didn't it also took me about 30 minutes for me to convince you to eat anything on that But I did and Gavin did not Gavin was too scared Kevin's a gigantic pussy. He is He is such a limp and then we went to he's just from Europe and he knows That was an Amsterdam you should lean over and been talking to the mic when you're gonna talk because they don't pick up Wow pause for technical schooling right there the
Starting point is 00:12:29 Couple things you know about Amsterdam a it's great Be there's bikes everywhere yeah, yeah, and it's just fun place to go I ran out fast It's awesome. That's all there's a say about Amsterdam. Jeff had a good time here at the Dan Frank House is there right we went to the Anne Frank Museum That was fucking most depressing thing I've ever done in my life. That was I was like What's that? Amsterdam is this fucking bike
Starting point is 00:12:59 Ezerman is the city of porn and drugs and we hit there and went straight to the N Frank Museum That's true. We did we walked no, we went to the pancake house checked into our hotel got pancakes and then went to the N Frank Museum That was and then it was step and then yeah, it was good We like missed all the fun stuff and then we went to the red light district which was Pretty fucking crazy. It was insane if If it ever been to New Orleans, it's like a much cooler version of New Orleans. Yeah. Yeah, or Vegas.
Starting point is 00:13:29 With canals everywhere. Yeah. Titties. You'd like this. This little, for you guys, this little fact. Ooh. We went on a boat tour. Believe it or not, like a tourist boat tour.
Starting point is 00:13:39 Like we're the guided dude telements like everything about the city. Their construction there, the stairs are so narrow and so steep. It's no joke. It's like they can't figure out the difference between a set of stairs and a ladder. It's like you're literally like stepping up on each set of stairs. But because they built them like that, they don't have the ability to move stuff in and out of the houses.
Starting point is 00:13:59 So every house on the front of it has a hook at the top of the roof so they can like percent of a pulley and yank stuff up the side of the house to put in the windows. Jesus, do they all have like a degree in physics over there or something? They do, basically. It's a good shipping town. That's why. And one day Gavin and Bernie were taking a nap in the hotel room, only so that they told me, and I couldn't hang with whatever homo-roger and stuff was happening there. So I just went for a walk. And while I was going for a walk, I saw apparently some dude died on the third floor of one of those houses, and they couldn't bring him down the stairs because you can't fit a, what do you put people on when they're dying?
Starting point is 00:14:34 A coffin. Gernie. Yeah, you can't fit a gurney down those things. So they have to bring a fire truck in that has a ladder with like, you know, the bucket on it, but the bucket has like a swivel with a gurney like permanently placed on it. And they have to like swoop in, up three stories, push the gur on it but the bucket has like a swivel with a gurney like permanently placed on it and they have to like Swoop in up three stories push the gurney in through the door throw the dead doodon and pull them out that way it was
Starting point is 00:14:51 Fascinating to watch well. I'm a fucking guy stand there and just like watch the whole time. I watch like a half an hour Yeah, do pictures. Yeah, I did take some pictures. Classy. I don't know that the guy was dead, but he didn't look alive So and it was in the red light district and he was like 70 he might have he might have paid a lot of good money For the first time. I don't know like that might be a thing might have been the best death ever right You should have been like the classic American and walked up to the dude run the poll and go where do I buy tickets for this? Yeah, I'll take what he had I'm gonna go next. How do I get on this ride go up and down? And then we flew back and that was uneventful. I slept the entire way. Yeah. Oh, We watched it. What was that? We watched the Earth stood still. Yeah, terrible. And then watch knowing,
Starting point is 00:15:32 which is like the opposite of the day the Earth stood still, which knowing is about Basically the Earth is gonna be destroyed. So aliens come to help us and the day the Earth stood still is about we're destroying the Earth So aliens are gonna kill us and kind of the same, but like they go to very different places. Both horrible. The only somehow combined both movies into one decent movie. You're telling me a Keanu Reeves movie and a Nicholas Cage movie and neither one was a hit, neither one was good. You would be amazed.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Wow. What is Hollywood come to? Speaking of track records come to a dismo close. Speaking of Keanu Reeves, I rewatched Point Break two days ago Holds up extremely well. It's funny. You say I saw that like two weeks ago. I did it show good I had the but Griffin had never seen it and we watched it the other night in bed It was one of the best movies ever. It's like the best ending to a movie ever. Oh, yeah How about how about the fast and then the furious making

Oh about a shove a dick up their butt time Warner is about to start charging us by the gigabyte for our bandwidth. Yep. That means no one in the office
Starting point is 00:22:18 I'll be using time Warner anymore. Yeah, it's true our stuff's co-located at a pseudo-ish time Warner facility. Yeah, I should threaten them. Yeah, we should we definitely should That's an empty threat. They don't know that. No, oh wait. I mean yeah, fuckers. I mean we I'm really time-worn though. Yeah, whatever they got the name Party people have nothing to do with it. We understand the consequence of people having a lot of bandwidth I mean that's something we have to deal with. We have to upgrade our capacity as well to be able to serve the site and videos and things like that. Yeah. I mean, it's just the way the internet works.
Starting point is 00:22:51 And time-water-mage money from that. Right. Time-water-mage money from us delivering content and us buying that bandwidth. They're trying to collect it on both ends. Exactly. And it's going to work. And it's going to work. Yep. No, they're...
Starting point is 00:23:04 Listen. They're going to get fucked. We used to work in the telecom industry before we it's gonna work. Yep. No, they're, listen. They're gonna get fucked. We used to work in the telecom industry before we started doing Red versus Blue. And we know that any one of these companies that has a lot of customers, they are totally fine with losing their top 10% people. I'm sure this is all a move on their behalf

That's what they would love to cut their network capacity in half. And they're going to drive those probs, those top ten users to other services and destroy their competitors to destroy their profitable. Yeah. It's smart. It's a great long-term solution. This is going to cascade all the way through. Yeah. And there's
Starting point is 00:23:38 nothing that can really be done about it. Nope. You know, we've always known it was coming is. Do you think this is going to be like a problem for gamers in general? Probably, it depends on how much they use. I mean, shit, I would just talk about the Wild 3.1 patch. That's, you know, 800 megabytes of my daily limit with that. My monthly limit, 800 megabytes, what is that? 2% of my monthly ban was gone. Yeah, this should have a real negative effect
Starting point is 00:23:59 on just the gaming industry, right? Yeah, what about the usage of wild? Yeah, I don't even know how much it uses. Nobody does. I guess you're gonna find out. You can monitor it. I'm sure. God forbid you want to stream a Netflix movie on your Xbox.

Like, here's what I just heard Joel tried to play a game like 1945 that the first video game the first, you know, on a modem like here's what I just heard Joel tried to play a video game in 1945.
