Yeah, he left us October 14 was a October September 14th September anyway he left a long time ago. Yeah, it's four months
Starting point is 00:02:25 a year. You can tell how backed up I am on on podcast song song entries. No worries. What's up, guys? Hey, we're on the wrong tank. Hey, hey, it's it's it's Jack. It's the Jack Jeff and Gus edition. This can only in badly for me. Yeah, no kidding, dude. All eyes are on Jack. I give you top billing jacks. I know. I appreciate it. Part of my B nice to Jack. Oh, no kidding dude. All eyes are on jack. I give you top building jacks. I know. I appreciate it. I'm part of my B nice to jack. Oh, that's that's sweet of you.

You're, uh, you're online protector of the skizz. The skizz is watching always.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Yes, and I don't want to get beat beat up poor skizz got destroyed on his personal comments I don't know if you saw that or not that wasn't You guys I did I did yeah, I feel I give my award He started following me on Twitter and stuff so I like the skizz kids you roll. I don't think he's following me Yeah, that's right obviously not because you're dick like me too I guess so I tried to help I tried to help you on Twitter I tried to help you with your stupid Twitter being hashtag thing. You're trying to start the other day. So you're fucking misspelled it. So Kirk Herbstreet and Brett Mars Muskberger. Yeah, whatever they're calling the national championship game. Are they also your friends? They're not my friend. Well Kirk Herbstreet is not my friend. Kirk Herbstreet flat out hates Texas. Like he doesn't even try to hide it now, and he's calling the UT versus Alabama game, and I really am not looking forward to that.
Starting point is 00:03:48 So I tried starting a trend on Twitter. The Herbstreet is a tool bag trend, and then I realized I misspelled his name. I actually someone pointed out that I misspelled his name. And I tried to help him, and I fucking copied his stupid little hashtag, did one, two, and what happens? It's fucking misspelled for me too,
Starting point is 00:04:04 because I copied it from an idiot back here Can I just can I just go on record saying that I am shocked? Absolutely shocked the Jack had a spelling error. I Mean I could not be more surprised what did all the college go towards at least it was a proper name at least There wasn't something simple. It wasn't an improper name. Oh speaking speaking of misspellings actually So we made fun of the you know Be nice to Jack group. Here comes the deflection. No, you made fun of the be nice to Jack group. So someone started a be mean to Jack group I don't know if you saw that I didn't but I should join it
Starting point is 00:04:36 But it's pretty funny. They'll probably change it now So we should screenshot this before the podcast goes out But in the sort of summary of the group it says have proper spelling and grammar and then three sentences later they misspelled speech. Did they spell it like S-peach? Yeah, yeah, exactly. So I thought that was clever and I wanted to point that out. So whatever, what's up? Who's laughing now, bitch? Yeah. Spill fuck you. So guess what do you want to talk about today?

Starting point is 00:05:54 I'm sorry about that. I didn't get you a card or anything. I mean, I'm still kind of wandering around this hallmark Make a guild disbanded card I fucking hate is that like I would I've been out of it for so long Like at the time I quit playing I had top-end, you know, rating gear Like I was in a progression guild. I had all the latest stuff and now, you know, new stuff has come out I'm my gears probably all shit got to catch up. I can't I can't do in game rating anymore I need a fucking by the way Jack just hit on inadvertently had an awesome idea based on my awesome idea What was it? We should start a line of hallmark cards for gamers. It's not a bad idea. Glad it came up with it. That's a great idea. All game specific. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:30 We could probably have those print on demand and sell them in our store. We probably could, right? Yeah. That'd be cool, actually. We should investigate that. I'm sure there's, if we want to use game images, there's going to be some licensing involved. We could probably make it all generic. Yeah, we could have, we could do, we could send off like a Mike and we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could do, we could, we could do, we could do, let's come up with a name, but not announce it yet That way no one else will steal it So I mean you really don't have anything to talk about this week. Do you have anything to talk about this week? I do okay, so we've all seen Avatar. Yeah, that was what I was gonna talk about Bernie took me out on a date a romantic little date Breakfast and avatars
Starting point is 00:07:20 Yeah, we did the mayor of the I'm and did you put out? After that movie damn right uh uh and now i want to go back in time and award the movie of the year to Avatar no no see gossier you're still a star trek right yeah i'm still a star trek if i if i was stuck in a in a room and had to watch a same movie 20 times in a row i would pick star trek every time no way absolutely i mean don no get me wrong. I loved Avatar. Fantastic movie. Yes.
Starting point is 00:07:47 One of the, you know, it's beautiful. One of the, you know, one of the best movies I've ever seen. But I, I don't know. I, I, I like Star Trek more. Really? Star Trek was fun, but it wasn't like, and I, you know, on top of that, I've already seen Star Trek like 10 times, I think. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Star Trek let, let's know lasting impression on me. I'm just like, oh, that's cool. Can't wait for the next star Trek. Now, see the thing with Avatar, it's an epic It's an epic movie like it defines the term epic movie But something like that you can't sit and watch over and over again It's not a it's just doesn't lend itself to that kind of view it But when you're looking for what the best single viewing is when you think about giving out an award like movie of the year You don't go for replay value if it was an anaconda would have won every war and book
Starting point is 00:08:23 Cuz I still watch that movie like once a month. That was John Void right? Yeah dude. And J-Lo and Ice Cube. Ice Cube, come on. Owen Wilson and fucking Eric Stoltz. Hey Eric Stoltz is not. It's an all-star cast.
Starting point is 00:08:36 Hey hey hey as long as we're talking about the Drunk Tank Awards and movie of the year and that shit you and I went looking for trophies yesterday. Yes we did. Oh that go. We decided we're actually going to send trophies to the people who won. Yep. So we went to a trophy shop that's here between our office and campus. I don't want to give away too much, but Gus and I designed what may be the best-worst trophy
Starting point is 00:08:55 of all time. Yeah, once, you know, it'll take a while to, you know, get the parts in and assemble it and whatnot, but as soon as we get them in, I'll definitely be sure to take some pictures of post-em in the group. Then we're going to make this a yearly thing. We're going to actually give trophy's everything. Yeah, and we we spend a lot of time looking through catalogs And you can you can I'm amazed at the stuff you can get for on top of a trophy You can get a lot you get like a bowl of chili Yeah, you can get giant grizzly bear a giant grizzly bear you can get like
Starting point is 00:09:19 Someone playing curling you can get the curling iron. Yeah, he can like not to Not like there, but like for from the so far lane can be stolen playing curling, you can get the curling iron. Yeah, he can. Like not to curl your hair. But like from the floor, like the lean curling stone. That's the whole thing. The stone's rock or something. Yeah, and it was unbelievable. So it was an eye opening experience.
Starting point is 00:09:33 Were the guys at the trophy shop really excited? Were they like, oh dude, this sounds like fun. Not at all. Really? No. It didn't seem to give it damn. It was burnt out in life. Yeah, we kept asking them if they had any, I don't want to give too much weight, but out in life. Yeah, we were not a lot of trophy business.
Starting point is 00:09:45 We kept asking them if they had any, I don't want to give too much weight, but we kept asking them if we could mount, like if they had like, you know, like they have a grizzly bear asking, you know, do you have like a bottle of booze, do you have a can of beer, or like a drunk guy's doing? Maybe a drunk guy's doing? They're like, no the catalog. Uh, would you, how would you feel about a guy playing golf? What the fuck? No, I don't want. There
Starting point is 00:10:10 was some karate dudes we considered getting for a while. And there was one that was like a fist coming at you. That was pretty cool. That was pretty cool also. But uh, it's like a goatsy award. That's pretty funny. Thank you. But uh, yeah, we, we, we, we, we kind of personalized it a bit and you'll see it hopefully hopefully by next podcast we'll have it one of some pictures. Yeah, we have any luck on getting addresses for JJ Abrams or anti-antigravity defying drunk. I worry about that once we get the integrity. Anti-antigravity defying drunk is going to be a problem. We may have to accept the award in his honor.
Starting point is 00:10:42 JJ Abrams, I'm not worried about. Yeah, we can see it. If you have nothing else, we can send it to the studio. I'm sure we can find someone to get it to. Yeah, we can probably get it closer. Yeah, close enough to the studio. Oh, I know, I know we can. Yeah, I'm not worried about that. So JJ Abrams, if you're listening, email us
Starting point is 00:10:54 with your address. And let's be honest, you're listening. We know you're listening, JJ Abrams. I don't even remember who else we're sending him to. That's how Monumental, the awards award, would you do anyone about? JJ Abrams, right right for a game of the year. That's right We're gonna send one to buy aware for the old Republic trailer. That's right. Mm-hmm actually You know what I can I can hook us up with a producer of bio
Starting point is 00:11:17 We get we get handed to him. Yeah, I know I know I know this I think we know the Cinematics director over there Yeah, there we go, so we'll just give it to you Wait, did the cinematic's director make that trailer? The guy we know didn't work on it But he knows the guy that does okay. He knows the guy behind the guy He knows the guy behind the guy. So yeah, we got lots of lots of drunk tank stuff to do yeah We do besides the podcast. It's weird sucks You making work for yourself. I know I know that gets cuz I don't have quite enough to do these days You're playing dark sideers right now, aren't you? I'm trying to.
Starting point is 00:11:46 What does that mean? He's not going to get to it. We've been so busy. I think I played Darksiders for 15 minutes yesterday. He's got the podcast that's going to take him all day. He's got the trophy thing. He's got to upgrade the mail server. He's got to switch out some hard drives.
Starting point is 00:11:58 Dude's got to install XP onto computers. Very busy. It's going to be a long day. Are we getting web-based mail finally? I'm going to fucking struggle with this microphone. Even though you're right behind me, I'm going to reach through Very busy. It's a very long day. So are we getting web-based mail finally? I'm going to fucking strangle you through this microphone. Even though you're right behind me, I want to reach through the microphone, go through the cable and come out and strangle you. I love that. There's certain buttons I can push on Gus that is immediately sets him off, and that's one of them. Yeah, I'm not a certain button. Yeah. Certain buttons. Gus is one button.
Starting point is 00:12:22 That's true. You got like an 86% chance. He's a switch he's just a switch he's turning on leave it on just lower that's right turn me on and leave me on so we've been playing Bayonetta if you want to talk about that or is that guss you have a better conversation to talk about no no let's talk about Bayonetta let's do it that game is insane yeah it's weird like somebody asked me the other day I think it was Luke uh ask me if I had I had I played it was Luke. Asked me if I had played it. And I was like, you know, I've actually beaten it
Starting point is 00:12:47 because we got the game early to do a cheat 100 videos and stuff. And he asked what I thought about it. And I honestly, I've beaten the game. I probably spent 10 to 15 hours playing it. I have no idea what I think about it. Yeah. Still.
Starting point is 00:12:58 DMZilla over in Microsoft said something last night on Twitter that was pretty hilarious. He said it was something like Bayonetta was like, Guns and ammo had a baby with playboy. That was like it. I'm really not sure if I like it or dislike it. I'm enjoying it, but it's I don't know what's going on. Like you did that beating the game doesn't help.
Starting point is 00:13:16 It's just a whirlwind of hair and nudity and in devils and angels. One one thing that's annoying about that game is it refuses to fucking end. Yeah. Like you play through what you think by looking at the achievements is the last level and then they're like all right Not play one more level where you fight every other boss you've played throughout the game and then you're like Whoo did it yeah has the Peter Jackson problem where it doesn't end they go okay Well now that you fought all of them let's create a new bad guy for you to fight haven't seen him before But here he is and then you fight him and you're like hey, and then they start rolling credits. And the credits stop, and they go, all right, now fight the real one. And then you fight that guy for like an hour, and then they
Starting point is 00:13:53 roll the credits again. And then in the credits, they're like, oh, hey, by the way, you have to, you have to play some more. Continue fighting through the credits. Continue fighting through the credits. And then you do that sequence, and it goes to another credit sequence where you have three more battles. And those three battles aren't the they aren't like they're just like replaying moments from the game But everything up until that point is like it matters to the story apparently. Yeah. Oh my god It's how how would that be like that? Be really weird if you were like watching a movie then the credit start rolling the movie comes back on then like You know the movie ends and then the credit start then the movie continues playing behind the credit. Yeah it's like
Starting point is 00:14:25 it's like if the Ferris Bueller gag went on for fucking two hours after the movie was over. What's still here? Great watch the second movie. Here's the secret ending. Yeah. Camera and ghost of college. I was terrified when I got to the start screen that I had to play the start screen. The start screen wasn't like some kind of devil in disguise. Yeah it wasn't like a second start screen. The start screen wasn't like some kind of devil in the sky. Yeah, it wasn't like a second start screen. It was like, now you can play the real game. That's fucked up.
Starting point is 00:14:50 Oh, man. Oh, hey, I finally got all of the riddler challenges in what Batman, Arkham and Simon last night. Oh, good. That's what I've been playing in my house right now. Like in that game? I enjoyed it, man. It's the first game I played in the long time that I didn't
Starting point is 00:15:03 capture it all in it. I just wanted to play it just for fun because I heard so many good things. And with a sequel coming out, I kind of wanted to catch up on it. But it had sort of the same issue that you had with Bayonetta where you beat the game. I collected everything in the game, the single player mission. I'm done and I have like 500 gamers go over in it. Yeah, that's frustrating, dude. I beat Bayonetta and I have like 350 gamers.
Starting point is 00:15:23 I have 25 of 50 achievements and I have like 350 points damn What are the other treatments you don't have like? There's be beat like a series of levels on hard and then beat them on like a harder difficulty than hard and then some Like collection shit that I haven't done so there's the Alpine portal things that we've been I'm actually doing a collecting video right now with all the different Alpine portals I think there's 21 in the game Yeah,. And those are like, I guess, sort of like many missions or whatever. And I think of the 11 or no 12 that I've found so far I've beaten two. Yeah. Like those things are so freaking hard. What are those? They're
Starting point is 00:15:57 like literally just like a side thing. You don't have to do it to beat the game. But you jump in and it's like a it's like a challenge mission. Like Batman Arkham, a silent challenge thing. It's, it's similar to that where it's like beat all these guys, but you can only, you can only hurt them in which time, which is like when you get dodged in attack, it's like bullet time. Yeah, or it's like, here's one you have, you can only punch six times and you can only kick seven times and beat these three guys. And you have 30 seconds. Yeah, and they're pretty fucking ridiculous. Yeah, there's, then there's one is like, stay in the air as long as you can. Like, that one's actually pretty easy. Oh, hey's then there's one is like staying the air as long as you can like that one's actually pretty easy
Starting point is 00:16:26 Oh, hey, I got those achievements by the way. We can cut a video for that. Oh good. Oh the two air ones So but uh, yeah, I mean, oh and all the game the game's fun. I think it's it's I think I enjoyed it. No, I'm glad you're having the same problem. I am. Yeah, just like I don't know what the fuck I'm watching Yeah, I don't know what I'm playing. I will say I think I'm getting better at it because like I've been playing I've been replaying some of the same guys that you fight earlier in the game. And you play them, it's like, oh, now you have to fight four of them.
Starting point is 00:16:50 You get better really quickly. You really do. It's pretty interesting the way that works. And also, the interesting thing about that game, it's like, I don't want to give too much away if people haven't played it yet. But they crammed every single kind of game play mechanic into one game.
Starting point is 00:17:03 It's a different game every level. And there's so many cutscenes, too, Jesus Christ. Yeah. Thankfully, they give you an option to actually skip cutscenes. You can hit start and skip a cutscene. And I find myself doing that a lot more frequently. I wouldn't be surprised if it had two hours of cutscenes. Kind of like Metal Gear Solid. That sounds about right.
Starting point is 00:17:19 No, no, no. That game had to be eight hours. But the end of Metal Gear Solid. I think Metal Gear Solid, I'm not joking, probably had 10 hours of cutscenes. Yeah, Gavin was telling Bernie of the day I was like I think I might have even been on New Year's Eve He he was playing Metal Gear and he got to the last level and he thought okay I'm gonna I got about 45 minutes before I got to go to the pub
Starting point is 00:17:35 I'll just knock this out and then head out and it was like four hours later Yeah, I think the final like cutscene and everything once you finish him I think it's like I think that alone is two hours. That's fucking that's so is it good to hours though? No, no, it's really not Well, that's that's a Perfect game according to games game spot. Well Bayonet is getting great reviews everywhere I saw I got a nine on game spot Kataku loved it people love the game. Well, it seemed like it seemed like I played like 30 45 minutes of it It seemed fun. What's the magazine that gave it a perfect in Japan? For Mitsu, which is you know, they did have not like 13 times, something like that.
Starting point is 00:18:06 Yeah, they've made it. I saw that, I'm actually not a perfect game, but it's good. I'm having fun playing it, but I really do want to play Dark Siders, because Gus and I got a couple opportunities to play that early last year, and I got excited about it. Plus, I liked their, at PAX, they had that booth with the mechanical goal. They were just like, we saw all the girls falling off of it. That was like, that was like endlessly entertaining. Watching just uncorinated goofy people fall off that thing
Starting point is 00:18:30 and watching boobs go everywhere. Man, that was not good boobs, but still. It was fucking, it was highly entertaining. Hey, so I guess we're going to Pax East in a couple months, right? Like in two months? Something like that. In March.
Starting point is 00:18:43 So less than two months. Who's going? Do we know? No, we need to plan that. I'll go. All right, cool. You months, right? Like in two months? Something like that. In March. So less than two months. Who's going? Do we know? No, we need to plan that. I'll go. All right. Cool.
Starting point is 00:18:51 You plan those, right? Yeah. Okay. You're not going, Jack. Keep me updated and let me know, because I'll have to plan merchant-isent stuff for it. Yeah, we should probably hammer that stuff out. No, you want me to go, so I can sell stuff for you.
Starting point is 00:19:00 You guys can walk around and look at all the cool stuff. Yeah, right. Yeah. Can't wait. Do you know what the attendance is for that thing? I think they've pre-sold 43,000 tickets already. 43,000? Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Wow. I think I was going to be capped at like 10,000. They were expecting it to be much smaller. It's getting huge. 43,000? I think I might be pulling that number out of my ass. I should double check that. Less years packs was like 45, right?
Starting point is 00:19:22 Oh no. Less years packs was $60,800. Oh wow. It was they maxed out the center. Yeah I knew that. last year's, last year's packs was like 45, right? Oh, no, last year's packs was $60,800. Oh, wow. It was, they maxed out the center. Yeah, I knew that. Like, yeah, they, it would have been, I think it would have, I think it could have done
Starting point is 00:19:32 the good 70, 75,000 had they not, had they, you know, had the capacity to handle. Where would they, do you think, do you think the air arcade will eventually move it to a bigger venue? I mean, is there a bigger venue in Washington? And maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, see Hawks. Well, I think, I think they don revenue in Washington? Maybe maybe maybe see hoxwell. I think I think
Starting point is 00:19:46 they don't use the entire watch and state convention center yet. Yeah, really? I think they're only using half of it currently. Every year they've expanded on the convention center. Like I think this year it felt. We said they like doubled the floor space this
Starting point is 00:19:58 year ago. Yeah, easily. Yeah. So it would be interesting to see what it looks like next year. Man. Well, I guess they have that that waiting area. Like it was guess they have that waiting area. Like, they have the concert or some of your panel was next door to it. They have another thing that's like the similar size. I guess they could put more stuff in there.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Yeah. Okay, I take it back. I think they've pre-sold a little over 20,000 tickets. That's still crazy. Yeah, that's still really good. I think they were initially expected between 30 and 40,000 people. That's awesome, man. So yeah, it's going great. I mean, I'm.
Starting point is 00:20:25 It's gonna be a lot bigger than I thought it was. I'm excited. We have not been to an event in Boston, since Annery Boston, I think in 2007. Did you go to that? Yeah, I went to that. I've never been to Boston. I mean, I love Boston.
Starting point is 00:20:37 I've been to Massachusetts, but never Boston. Boston's a great town. Yeah, did you get to the cheers bar when you were up there? Not that time, but the first time I went to, you get it. The cheers bar when you're up there. Uh, not that time. But I the first time I went to Boston. I went to the cheers bar. Yes. What is baseball start? You know, uh, usually starts in first week of April. April. Okay. So so the red socks would not be playing most likely. Oh, they might have an exhibition game.
Starting point is 00:20:57 Might have an exhibition. It can be kind of cool. I mean, I'm sure they have. I'm sure they're, they're, uh, their preseason stuff is in a, like an air zone or somewhere. But yeah, you might. But if it's Paxi's just like at the very end of March last week in March 28th I think an exhibition game that be kind of cool I like to see the redsocks play at home go see the green monster they just they just had the that hockey game outdoors in the in Boston stadium March 26 to 28 there we go I'm looking up the red sock schedule now.

Starting point is 00:21:35 Oh, very good. So they might have some some preseason stuff. I'm looking at the other first holo, what's this? March 26 to 28th They will be Yes, yes, the 26th it looks like they're playing Toronto at home. Ooh the blue 28th. They're playing Minnesota at home They have fuck Minnesota. We can go much that game because that that will probably be after the afterpacks is over

Yeah, we definitely did we did two one or two commercials It'll be it will be up in the stands which to controllers Like we're directing the game when you do those commercials There's all kinds of weird legality stuff and there was a whole thing about whether do you remember what it was? We there was something about showing the Boston Gardens No, I don't remember that Is that is that like a copyrighted location? I don't know like a higher end of your state building, you can't show that in video, right?
Starting point is 00:25:06 I don't know. I can't. I've heard something like that. We're like certain monuments you can't show without getting permission to show them. Like already you have to pay a license fee to show dead serious. You have to pay a license fee to fucking look at it? Are they going to cover it up with a tarp? I mean, no, no, like ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:25:21 No, if you like, if you use it in a product that is eventually going to be for money. Like if you made a DVD of like Oh look you know sites of New York City that would be you have to pay a license I I Don't know the city the owner of the building. I'm not sure bullshit all right. You want to look that up I am I gonna have to find that myself. I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't I don't disbelieve you Jack, because I don't, you find it like, just kidding. I don't, I don't at Jack.

Starting point is 00:26:14 at the Alamo Draft House. We're running a theater. Yeah, the Rooster Teeth rented out a theater at the Alamo South of Mars. It should be a lot of fun. It holds 122 people. And we have like 130 people. So it's gonna be a hundred and
Starting point is 00:26:25 twenty UT fans my wife who doesn't give a fuck and me the Alabama fans. There's gonna be more and more than just your wife who don't give a fuck I promise. Probably. Yeah. I've got my UT snuggie ready to go. It's gonna be awesome. Oh man. Yeah, it's supposed to be fucking cold. Yeah, it's gonna be a high of 40. It's gonna be apparently this week we're gonna have the coldest temperatures in 15 years. Yay. You sound like an old man.
Starting point is 00:26:48 I just read about this morning. Can you tell in your knees? Yeah, my trick, my trick knees act as well. They're like, what a fucked up year, man. We had the hottest year ever, and now we're gonna have the coldest year in 15 years. It's El Nino. Yeah, at least it's not raining right now.
Starting point is 00:26:59 Like, you don't want that shit to freeze. That would be the worst. Yeah, one time I drove to the office in Buda, after we had had like one of those sleet storms, like a year, two years ago, or three years ago, at this point I guess, and the whole time between my apartment, on infield, and driving down to Buda, I didn't have any control
Starting point is 00:27:14 of my car. That's terrifying. It was horrible. Like after I got there, I thought, I am fucking retarded. Why did I come to work today? Yeah, there's nothing worse than being in a car that has no traction. Like you literally sitting like, well, I'm in a guided missile right now. Or a non-guided missile on this.
Starting point is 00:27:28 I'm sitting here hoping I don't hit anything. Yeah, and I know that we have listeners and there's people who live in colder places and it ISIS over more frequently. But it's just weird. It's more difficult here, I feel like, because we're not prepared for it. Absolutely. We don't have, we don't have trucks, you know, we don't have plows. Nobody salt in the road.
Starting point is 00:27:42 No, no, that's not. I had that same year. I got trapped in my apartment for a while because all my steps rose over. They had like three inches of ice all the way around them and I lived on the second floor and I couldn't go down to the ground. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:53 I had to crawl out on my hands and use with a hammer. I was fucking pounding all the ice off of those steps. That's a good middle image right there. Just hammering at his steps. And I did it naked. Of course. Because it was Christmas. That's my new middle image right there. He's just gusts, hammering at his steps. And I did it naked. Of course. Because it was Christmas, why not?
Starting point is 00:28:07 That's my, that's gonna be my new tradition. I've seen, I've seen way too much naked gusts over the last month or so. You are proud of that man. I figured, you know, if it naked photo me showed up on the internet, even if I had control over it, I would be terrified. Fuck it, dude, you gotta own it. You gotta own it or it owns you.
Starting point is 00:28:23 That's right. What is Gusskin? What, what, what, what, what What care? Well you backing him up for he's naked in your house Now that was awesome dude. It was funny. It's great. Did he burn that chair? What do I care? I got I got naked in front of a video camera once at Sundance dude Gus? What's Gus? Yeah dude. I don't go fuck Gus. I've been friends for 11 years now And he lived with me on and off three times over a period of about four years I got the idea of naked Gus touching stuff in my house is not bothering me. I got over that pretty fast.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Yeah, it's a... Wait, so why were you naked at Sundance? I was really drunk. You know that old Roosh keep comic that Luke did. That's what you're seeing on the snowman? Yeah, that was a true story. You know, I got really drunk and I went out and pissed on a snowman and much music was there, much music Canada and they filmed my penis as I was pissing on the snowman. I'm sure they have the footage
Starting point is 00:29:09 somewhere. Some poor little kid will go. No, no, it wasn't some little kid, it was some woman because she walked by as I was pissing on the snowman. Oh nice. She started yelling at me. I should have peed on her. I would have, but the camera angles, you know, I would have been off axis. No, I got to break the 180 degree rule. Yeah. You know, gotta keep the penis pointed at the camera. So, okay, so what movies are coming out soon? I can't even think of what movies are coming out. Anything big? Book of Eli, we seen the trailer for that. Yeah, we've seen a couple of trailers for that. That looks nuts, man. I will watch any movie with Denzel Washington. Gary Olmins in that right? Yeah, he's awesome too But fucking Denzel Washington see I don't know
Starting point is 00:29:48 I like I give the exact same awesome performance and everything he's in no matter no matter what the movies about No matter what character he plays. I'm trying to think of a Denzel Washington role that he didn't do well And I can't I was trying to do this. He's always great. Doesn't matter how shitty the movie is he's good and he's good enough to watch Yeah, even I'm trying to think no man on fire man of fire. He was awesome awesome training day God training about the worst movie you can think of that he was in is That Spike Lee basketball movie he got game. Yeah, and he was still good in it Even though the movie was kind of terrible He does a watching and is always on his egg. Apparently he was a voice actor for a TV special entitled Mother Goose, A
Starting point is 00:30:28 Rappin and Ryman Special. That sounds like that would be terrible. I'm just speaking like. Oh, did he hear they replaced Walter Cronkite, his voice over for the CBS evening news with Morgan Freeman? Did they really? Yeah, so they they pulled Walter Cronkite. He introduced Katie Curric and they needed someone. So if she wasn't there, they could they they pull Walter Conquerie he introduced Katie Kirk and they needed someone So if she wasn't there they could have someone you know say and sit again for Katie Kirk is sure sure Steven botchko Let's say Steven botchko I hope that day never come why did you pull that out of you know? Why would Steven botchko ever be sitting in the Katie Kirk on the news? He'd eat quantum leap right? Yeah
Starting point is 00:31:04 I don't know why the name came out of my I know. You don't know. He's just diversified over the years. Sit, do boost. Yeah. Good dog. The references no one will get. I know. That's a five per center. Hey, did you all see that eight bit left for dead remake or D-make? D-make. I guess it finally got released. It's available for free download. Have you seen this Jack? I've heard of it. I haven't seen it though. It's pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:31:29 It's like, I guess the guy who made it tried to use the actual color palette he would have had and the sound, you know, capabilities he would have had if the game had been programmed for the NES. Oh, that's cool. And I like that. It's really clever. He made it as a two-player game. Did he hear that Nintendo
Starting point is 00:31:45 sent a cease and assist to the guy who did the Legend of Zelda movie thing like the fan movie? That does not surprise me at all. Nintendo has got a long history doing that shit. Yeah they did they do that to the daily radar. Yeah they use like a Donkey Kong image without asking them. Man that's pretty cool. I'm showing Jack the Leifer Dead video. That's great. It looks like the old bad dude style of a gameplay of size-scroller. It made me think of double dragon when I saw it.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. It's like a cool dude. That is neat. I want to play that now. If you have a PC, you can download a Frit. Do you have a PC? I, uh,
Starting point is 00:32:20 You can bootcamp, you can do that. There you go. Or you can bootcamp install right now, but I could. You can parallel it, I'm sure. I bet it doesn't take very much power oh max I got a Mac versus PC debate with a friend of mine recently I don't ever do that uh I'm worth it and you like his big thing was you know I don't want to join the cult of Mac users I'm like all right I'll tell you what find somebody who is a Mac user who can switch back to PC yeah yeah find that, whoever that guy is that wasn't forced to because of workers
Starting point is 00:32:47 Right. Yeah, they just decided you know that I don't like Max as much. I'm gonna go back to I was happier with PCs Yeah, you know, I will say I am I'm thinking about building myself a gaming PC. I yeah, yeah Yeah, with with old Republic coming out Not just old Republic, but like it just blizzard's about to have an ont while. Yeah, but I'm a lot of all blizzard games launch for max That's a day. I'm not concerned about that. It's just older public. I'm really Jones and four So I've started I started trying to relearn some some PC's I'm holding out hope that older public will work on the max Well, that would be great. I wouldn't hold up Yeah, I really wouldn't probably won't happen
Starting point is 00:33:23 But I'll have to buy two PCs for that, because Gryffind will want to play with you. Sure. You already have that one Mac, but you can bootcamp that. Yeah, I'll bootcamp that and then get another. You can build a decent gaming PC for like what, $400, $500 now? Like one that will run games, not necessarily like crazy FPS or anything, but. I don't know anything about computers anymore.
Starting point is 00:33:41 I want to build something crazy. Oh, okay. I want to build something with like four video cards, like a jet field. And I want to have like liquid cool in that crap. I want to have like 330 inch display. So I can have like 180 degree view around me of all the public while I'm playing.
Starting point is 00:33:58 You can do that, right? That's totally doable. It's absolutely. You can do anything. Yeah, 2010. We can map the brain. Yeah, we mapped the brain That's references from the cell. It's from the cell Fucking hate that movie. I think did you and I see that in the theater together? Yeah, we saw together. Yeah, I got that
Starting point is 00:34:15 Fuck movie fucking Vince Vaughan All the way through that film looked like it like for the It's kind of like kind of reminded me of Alan Rickman in Dogma, where he realized you watch them realize that the movie sucks as I go and think. And like 20 minutes into the film, you can tell that they've already given up. That was Vincent D'Offrio, right? In the cell, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:34 In the cell, yeah. It's the N'Offrio J-Lo and Vince Fallon. Man, that was a crazy visual movie. I remember like the horse that got split in the pieces. Yeah. That's why we were talking about it actually last night because my wife is a fan of the artist That did a lot of the design for that movie. Yeah
Starting point is 00:34:47 At the time I thought I remember sprint was running some commercials with like a dude in a black trench. Yeah We thought I thought that Vince Vaughn in that movie look like the dude the sprint commercial dude I don't even I've told him out about this commercials until I thought about the sale reminding me about this commercial He was the first like he was you know, you know, that guy you're talking about the guy in the trench coat I bet that guy wakes up every morning and wants to kill the can you hear me now guy? God I totally stole this thunder, right? Like I can you hear me now guy? He's done for life, right? He's got to be set for life. I mean like he's not an actor right?
Starting point is 00:35:17 I mean if he wasn't actors like well, he'll never be in anything because he will always be the can you hear me now guy? He's like a he's like Verizon's Jared. Yeah, Jared yeah basically yeah it's not like Jared was trying to be an actor though have you seen the the the Verizon viral quote unquote commercials where it's the the Verizon it's the can you hear me now guy and like a group of about a hundred people with him walking around a park and they see a guy answer the phone they get behind him and they start following the guy it's that's dumb that's like like the network commercials yeah well that's what it is in They see a guy answer the phone and they get behind him and they start following the guy. That's dumb. That's like the network commercials.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Yeah, well that's what it is. The networks with them and whatever. And then for the first time you see, it's like, oh, this is kind of cool that they just followed someone. And then you realize, oh wait, that guy is miked. It's like, okay. Yeah, then they then they referred like, oh, you see it with the network. It's like who was going to call them the network, you know?
Starting point is 00:36:03 Yeah, I just did. Yeah, well, that's true. I know they're ad campaign I'm familiar with it hey so did you all hear that wow maybe turn back on in China yeah yeah they're they're nearing the end of their dispute that's awesome speaking of China I read something interesting this morning not to go all the way back to Avatar but Avatar had the highest gross seeing opening day in Chinese history. Really? Anything? Yeah. Oh, wow. Any movie ever. It was a bunch of Yen and it was like...
Starting point is 00:36:31 Yen is from Japan too. Whatever. What's the Chinese currency? It's... It's like... It's something else. It's like... Look at that. Oh, look at that. You might be surprised it might be Yen. I was just waiting for someone to say something very racist.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Anyway, it was like. It's a yuan. It's a yuan, that's right. Yeah, it was a 4.9 million, I think. American dollars. High-spacing opening day. China, I don't see it on Bimojo yet. I read the article this just this morning.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Hey, that's cool, that's awesome. Before that, it took the, it's still the thunder from a movie called a simple noodle story Yeah, I'd be curious I remember one I remember when I think when Titanic opened it had the largest opening in Japan I believe all right, I think that Titanic's Opening was stolen by Princess Mona no gay if I recall properly. I would be surprised. I could be wrong about that fucking Avatar what's it up to now worldwide? Was that 1.133 million last time I lived? 1.63 million. God damn dude. That's amazing. It's like the third highest-grossing film worldwide of all time. All righty. The third fourth. That movie costs at least $500 million
Starting point is 00:37:38 to make and it's profitable. Yeah. It's profitable. It's number four worldwide right now. Wow. And it will easily jump number three It's it's only three million dollars behind it. It'll get number two as well pretty quickly Is Titanic still one? Yeah, yeah, 1.1.6 billion I think yeah, it looks like it'll very easily slide into the number two position But man, I don't know if it can pass Titanic. I wouldn't be surprised if it beat Titanic Titanic, I don't know man. It's gonna be in the theaters for 30 weeks probably you think so it'll be at iMacs for a while. I'm max for a year. Oh, I don't know man. Avatar is going to be in the theaters for 30 weeks probably. You think so? It'll be at IMAX for a year.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Oh, I don't know man. I remember Titanic being in theaters literally for like six months. It was longer. I think it was in like 50 weeks. No, it was like 38 weeks or was it? It was a long time. But it was coming out on VHS and it was still in some theaters. Batman was, you remember Batman was also in the theaters for about five months
Starting point is 00:38:26 and avatars in a great position because it came out of christmas and there's not going to be anything any real competition until they're shown so you know it's going to be in the theaters it'll be in the years for a long fucking time and in eighteen days it's made three hundred and sixty million dollars in the u.s. did bernie not slow in that bernie show you that trailer for inception the decaprio movie i think'm think so. No, no. It's nuts, dude.
Starting point is 00:38:46 It looks like we said it looks like a mix between dark city and the Matrix, which the Matrix really is a remake of dark city, but I don't know. It was someone who had done something crazy before. I want to say maybe Aaron Offsky maybe? Or like, Pryus or... I don't think it was Pryus, but... What did you say it was called? Inception.
Starting point is 00:39:03 It's, yeah. I have no idea what the movie's about, but it's got it's got the caprio in it It's got Ellen Page in it and I want to say like Ben Kingsley or somebody that I see me serve in Kingsley Christopher Nolan, Christopher Nolan, there you go. So the Batman guy I would accept the momentum guy Really? Yeah Memento's an awesome film
Starting point is 00:39:23 That's I don't know. Yeah, I guess Memento you can watch it a few times Yeah, I guess I'm a mentor you can watch it a few times. I will back in a minute. Griffin has never seen it. I went back and watched it with her. For some I'd seen it in a couple of years. That's one of Joey Pants' best movies. It is. Joey Pants.
Starting point is 00:39:34 Absolutely one of his best movies. Bad and goonies. And a bound. Bound. That's great. Man, did you all see that Modern War for Two was the highest selling item on Amazon? Yeah, I did. In 2009. In 2009? In 2009? That's amazing.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Like, out of anything, I just were video games, but like for anything they sold, it even beat the last Harry Potter film, which is like beating Jesus in the UK. Yeah, pretty much. You don't beat Harry Potter and Harry Potter's back yard. Yeah. What the fuck? This is two of the top five slots we're taking by video games. Well, hey, some of the main characters
Starting point is 00:40:08 in Monwarfare British, right? Let me ask you again. Maybe it's soap and then... Soap is the new Harry Potter? Yeah. Price. Kids dressing up for Halloween. I'm said Christmas.
Starting point is 00:40:18 I've been... They don't dress up like him for Christmas too much. No, why not? They got weird customs over there. Totally. It'd be creepy if you had kids and you woke up for Christmas too, I'm like, why not? I got weird customs over there. Totally. No, they'd be creepy if you like, you know, you had kids and you woke up like Christmas morning, and they were like, in-gilly suits hiding
Starting point is 00:40:29 in your living room, like in the trees. It's like a little rifle just slowly peeks out of the tree. That'd be awesome. Like, ah, I could do that. Hey Gus, you said you were gonna talk about something last week and you never did, two weeks ago. Two weeks ago and you never did. Let's talk about thorium. It's funny you say that. I just pulled it up to remind myself to talk about it.
Starting point is 00:40:49 I was like, I'm legitimately excited about this. I want to hear more about thorium. Are you, I thought maybe no one else cared about it. No, it's the idea of a power source that's comparable to what we have now that's safer than what we have now. And hopefully cheaper, right? Yeah, it's, okay, so I'm gonna go back a little bit. Quick, quick, quick, quick, quick lesson. When, you know, when atomic energy was being developed and you know, for civilian uses, after this is post-manhand project, now after they had the bomb, they started looking at civilian uses for it, like building nuclear reactors, trying to harness it for power.
Starting point is 00:41:24 The regulatory committee that in charge of this. I think was the atomic energy committee came up with a couple of different proposals for the government and The proposal that the government ended up going with was using uranium because If you if you use uranium in nuclear reactors the waste products and the byproducts could be converted into weapons So the government decided to go with that So they could build a nuclear stockpile at the same time as they were building power and make wargames. Right.
Starting point is 00:41:48 But another alternative that had been proposed and that was actually forgotten about until a couple of years ago was to make reactors powered by thorium. And thorium is different from uranium in that it's still radioactive, but it's not as dangerous. Like you could hold thorium and put it in your pocket and you'd be fine.
Starting point is 00:42:04 Because the alpha waves that it puts off can penetrate skin. Okay. Also the waste from it, the byproducts are only toxic, like you know, with uranium you have to bury it for like a hundred thousand years. Yeah. Because it's toxic. The byproducts with thorium you'll have to bury for like a hundred years. Oh wow. And then it's fine. There's also no risk of a meltdown, so you could build it and the power plants are much much much smaller.
Starting point is 00:42:27 So you could build it in residential areas, and no one would even notice. And what's the output like? It's comparable. It's much cheaper. I'm trying to pull up the figures here. I can't find it in front of me. But I mean, to acquire the fuel, to run a uranium power plant, if I recall a stop on my head, per year
Starting point is 00:42:45 They have spent like 50 to 60 thousand dollars on fuel and you could run the same power plant off of thorium for $10,000 a year Oh, history of the diamond here is the cost for a typical Annual fuel cost for a one gigawatt reactor uranium 50 to 60 million annual fuel cost for one gigawatt reactor estimated for thorium is $10,000 Wow, and the footprint of a uranium power plant is 200 to 300,000 square feet the footprint for thorium power plant would be 2 to 3,000 square feet Wow, so I decided my house a small house Yeah, and the in order to in order to get that Gigawatt of power you would need 250 tons of raw uranium or one ton of raw thorium cheese and we have it's estimated We have hundreds of thousands of tons of thorium in the US at least enough to power the country for a thousand years
Starting point is 00:43:32 You know where the where the deposit is at. I don't know. Huh you go stake a claim. Yes Apparently there's there are some technical problems don't call it for me. Way The the way the thorium reaction works is they have to have the thorium in a bath of molten salt. Okay. And the molten, like, they have to develop a container that can hold molten salt, because apparently it's very corrosive. Yeah. Imagine that.
Starting point is 00:43:56 So they have containers they think now could probably hold it for like 10 years, but they want something more permanent than that. Like a good 11 or 12. So I say just build a bunch of those, just like one inside of another inside of another. Like there's like those Russian, yeah, the rest of the Niles.
Starting point is 00:44:08 Russian dolls. But yeah, apparently also in the same article that read and wired, they also said that I guess like it's such a hot item that the Chinese government has ordered any mining facility in China. If they find Thorium, they have to set it aside and give it to the government. Wow. And I guess like India and China are like the big other countries that are really interested in it since they have obviously huge populations.
Starting point is 00:44:29 Yeah. So it seems like it's really cool. So what are the odds that we'll get something up like an off the ground in the next decade? Oh, slim to none. I think the US has only set us, well only. That's another one of the problems. They don't have enough funding to really do the research. They say that the first couple of plants that they build like this would obviously be expensive because they've never built them.
Starting point is 00:44:50 Yeah, and the US has only set aside like $250 million towards the research of it, which and they need more to get the first couple going. See now, why doesn't someone like why doesn't some super rich guy like why doesn't a Bill Gates type guy? Just kind of like all right. Here's two billion dollars figure it out yeah I think you know like he said then you could take that like if you could have a power plant like that you could do that over in like Africa like the towns that need power like those small like villages and stuff like that would you know if you want to help the world that be the way to do it right yeah it seems like it or just help lower my electric
Starting point is 00:45:21 bill I guess private industry is kind of stepping in. There's a company in the Soviet Union working on it. Well that seems to be the way things are going now. I'm sorry, Russia. I'm a spook there. It's fucking cold in the hot. It is really cold. It's not happened.
Starting point is 00:45:38 No thorium. Oh right. Anyway, I'll be sure to link dump it. It's a really long interesting article that I was fucking riveted by Yeah, I'm legitimately like interested in what's going on with this stuff But yeah, but it seems to us the way things are going now It's like private industry is stepping in and you know doing what you would think like government doing like a like space travel and stuff like that Like you know virgin galactic and the x-price and all that. I'm just glad you're legitimately interested in not illegitimate
Starting point is 00:46:05 interesting because that would be weird that would be weird I don't even know what that would mean but yeah thorium yay thorium look it up big ups invest yeah I'm gonna buy I'm gonna go find I'm gonna start digging up my backyard looking for thorium and build me a little a little reactor I guess also apparently a lot of like a lot of lobbyists who have interest in in Uranium power plants are trying to squash the whole thorium thing Do those people do they sleep well at night? Like you know the people who are like oh you know ignore the children getting shot at the schools keep buying guns like like are those people sleep? On giant beds of money
Starting point is 00:46:47 Probably fun fuck if I had a money pillow. I'd sleep like a baby There's another money pillow money pillows. Money pillows. Yeah. How much how much were how many dollar bills would it take to fill a pillow? Dollar bills. What are you some kind of popper? Well, you can't tell when your head's on it. Oh, I can tell Jesus with the the hundreds are less handled You can tell that's a plebians. It's a higher quality material Higher fabric count you couldn't tell Jack I probably can tell dude I want a poker tournament on my birthday. It was awesome Thank you. Congratulations made a lot of money. It was also on someone else's birthday at that person's house
Starting point is 00:47:23 Wasn't it yeah at their tournament. Well, it started the started the day before and then we hit midnight So we crossed over into our birthdays. We mean a mean flash 2000 share birthday or flash 2000 and I share I know you're you're yawning otherwise you would have come in flash So we went back actually flashes the reason why I know you guys I Oh So do you want back actually flashes the reason why I know you guys I'm I met Bernie and Joel at a poker game like three years ago three four years ago Hosted it is house and now you work here, then now I work here, and I'm I'm just a target If Luke ever puts me in the comic, you should I should just have a target shirt That'd be my my icon now No, you'll never be in the comic. I should just have a target shirt. That'd be my icon.
Starting point is 00:48:05 No. No. You'll never be in the comic. I don't think I will. And even then, no. Hey, you're looking at Kim Kardashian's boobs. What's up? I've been trying to find a way to work this
Starting point is 00:48:14 into the podcast ever since Halloween. For Halloween costume. Yeah, and I just can't find a way to work it. Oh, is it the Idream of Genie costume, whatever? I would say the Aladdin costume. Oh, is it Jasmine? I think so. She is.
Starting point is 00:48:27 She's a very talented young lady. I heard her. She has a couple talents that are impressive. I heard her on Howard Stern the other day. Oh, what's she talking about? I don't know. No idea. You started her boobs while you were listening to me.
Starting point is 00:48:39 Pretty much. Is she still with Reggie Bush? Yes. And her freaky sister married Chris Odom, right? Yes. Lamar Odom. Lamar Odom, Chris Odom's a different basketball player. And they've been getting like 30 days.
Starting point is 00:48:52 So today, is this the podcast where you just work in shit from old podcasts? Yeah, I'm just like, oh, fuck it. And the funny thing is I just deleted a bunch of stuff the other day that I hadn't talked about because I felt it was too old. I think it was like, it was all stuff like the Victoria Secret Fashion,
Starting point is 00:49:04 the Victoria Secret commercial by Michael Bay. I think we actually talked about. There's just not much going on in January. Everybody's just from Cooperting from the holidays. Well, I think we're so busy playing games. It's nice to sit down and not talk about all the games we have in front of us. You know, I do want to talk about something. The other day when we were playing D&D, I invented a new drink I'd never had, which was awesome. Oh, you not this week, but last week. Yeah, last week. I don't know if you've ever had this Jack. Well, we didn't have very much liquor or very many mixers, so I grabbed a root beer and poured crown royal in it.
Starting point is 00:49:33 It was fucking awesome. I remember that. The last crown? Yeah. It was unbelievable. I think I'm going to go buy a bottle of crown tonight. Everybody who is of legal drinking age should give it a try. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:42 This portion of the podcast brought to you by Crown Royals. Everybody who is not should market on the calendar in 2012 or whenever you turn 21 to give it a try. Yeah. This portion of the podcast brought to you by Crown Royals. Everybody who is not should market on the calendar in 2012 or whenever you turn 21 to try. Yeah, it was really good. Hey, had Jeff fun at D&D last night? I did. Gus and I played D&D last night. I've never played D&D.
Starting point is 00:49:55 It's fun. Never. I had less fun last night than I normally do. Really, I thought I had more fun last night. You know, I realized that I was kind of troubled with it after everybody left, because everybody's in a good mood It was good everybody seemed to be firing on all cylinders and was fun And I realized that last night we had what they call a dungeon crawl jack
Starting point is 00:50:12 Which is basically just go from Boston County like fight to fight to fight to fight to fight so it's a car crawl Zero role playing great talking about we fucking we had a 10% thing with the guy with Spero, but that was it and I realized that the only thing I like about the indeed is is that stuff and non-battle stuff The stuff you like is derailing Frank's story. Yeah, I mean I had fun last night still But I didn't I had hardly any opportunities to have to be goofy or you know Piss people off so it's it's damn-meary impossible to lose D&D right like oh no no no no no you can die really quickly I Try really Month again and also depends on who you play with and you're done your master
Starting point is 00:50:51 But I mean if you die in D&D quote like actually die you your character's gone, right? Yeah, and you're not supposed to you start Over depending on the circumstances. You can be resurrected. There are penalties There's some buzz that there's sometimes you it's impossible The very first character I ever I ever had, you know years ago, got killed in a way that he could not be resurrected. And what made me even more angry is that members of my party had the opportunity to save me and stop it from happening. And they didn't. Wow. They let me die. Did you like flip the table and walk out of the room or anything? I was like I was so fucking angry. I still haven't forgiven them. Wow. So you, so you're not allowed to be like, hey, can you res me, please?
Starting point is 00:51:28 Well, no, they couldn't res me, because of the way I die. It depends on your... Oh, man, this is so dorky. It depends on your dungeon master. When we play with Frank, Frank is all about just the experience and having fun and role-playing. And I feel like the battle was secondary. It's more of just the interaction with the world and goofing around
Starting point is 00:51:44 and advancing a story together. But we have this other friend who we play with named Adam. And when he deems, I can feel him trying to kill me, actually. The Adam will work very hard to try to kill him. Yeah, like he'll sit down tonight and he'll be like, you know, four of you won't make it. Look to your left, look to your right. So how does one step into the role of a deem?
Starting point is 00:52:02 Like are these players? They're people who've played a lot and are very familiar with the rules. And then, you know, they want to try to, I guess, take it to your right. So how does one step into the role of a DM? Like are these players that just, they're, the people who've played a lot and are very familiar with the rules. And then, you know, they want to try to, I guess, take it to the next, like they have their own story they want to tell in their own campaign they want to run. So there are like traditional campaigns, like anyone can run, like it's the same campaign. You can buy models. I mean, you can, you can either, you know, come up with a campaign yourself and make it all or you can, like, Jeff said, you can buy a module and just run it like out of a book. Okay. Being a DM's hard for a couple reasons
Starting point is 00:52:25 I mean what I think it's a hard thing to do But then also if you play with other experienced players like in our game for instance almost every decision you make is met with about Three minutes of argument. Yeah, any time there's possible if you're following the rules properly anytime Frank says something Adam and I are like you know lawyers like a objection Like last night we had that fucking argument about bull rush. I said, I want to bull rush the guy, Frank said, you couldn't. And I was like, okay, well, I want to charge the guy. He's like, oh, you can't do that.
Starting point is 00:52:51 And I was like, why do you can bull rush it? Frank's like, yeah, of course, you can bull rush it. And I said, why did you say no then? Yeah. That was the whole thing. It's all semantics, too. Like, what's the average mean? You're in a fucking bull rush into charge.
Starting point is 00:53:00 You get no, you get no attack bonus to a bull rush, right? I think technically with a bull rush It's just like a grapple attack and a charge you can do a really attack. Yeah Exactly We gotta get off of this Man you guys are so hot Hey, we got two hot chicks playing with us though really yeah, I mean Frank and Adam if you consider my wife to be hot My wife and Larkin are both playing D&D and Larkin Larkin was in Pajama Chewbans, right? Yeah. I mean, Frank and Adam. If you consider my wife to be hot. My wife and Larkin are both playing D&D. And Larkin was in Pajama Cheevins, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:28 She was in Pajama Cheevins. I'll have to find a video with her and link down it. Yeah, you should. Oh, I watched the opening scene of Inglourious Bastards yesterday and another Pajama Cheevins girl was in that. Yeah, I watched it with you too. I had never seen, I haven't, but man, that movie looked good. I wish I had the first half hour of it I got super sucked in and had to go. The first scene in the in the French house, whatever Tina from a putt Pajama Cheamens. She's in that and that's she's the one who says Papa. Yeah, she's hanging the sheets up on the on the clothesline.
Starting point is 00:53:57 Are very good. Frentina who is also she's on a roll. She was also in shorts last year. Oh, what's she? Oh, cool. And she might be in a movie coming out this year, but I don't know if that's like you're not allowed to talk about it. Yeah, I don't know Okay, it's my you're in the way. I'll have to see if I can find like a screenshot of in glorious bastards or something Look up on I'm telling you she's been a few things. No, I mean I can want to show people yeah, but without breaking the law Don't break the law find a photo publicity still one official one. Yeah, I have to see what I can find. Go go wire image or something. Well, let's call up Quentin. Like, hey, what's up, man? Yeah. Can we use this photo? Sure.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Is he also your friend? I don't know. I've actually never met Quentin Tarantino. Which is weird because he's an Austin quite a bit. Yeah, I've never met him either, but I sat directly behind him at the Gryffin and I went to the... I don't know, you guys didn't go for some reason, but we went to the world or we went to the opening night of Alamo Ritz. Oh, yeah, I was there that they had the world premiere of no country-frald men It was like a month before it came out really that was there and Yeah, so Griffin and I went inside it was like we paid $40 to see no country-frald men and then like free food and stuff and Directly in front of me was couldn't turn to that's cool Now the the Ritz is the only Alamo in Austin, I didn't open.
Starting point is 00:55:05 I've gone, like, I went to the closing night of the original draft house, and then I opened the village, I opened the Lake Creek, and then, what was the, I opened the South of Lamar, and then the Ritz I went opening weekend. Because it was like, it was, I wanna see, it was more in 40. That was like 120 for the whole opening night. Yeah, it was like a three movie thing,
Starting point is 00:55:24 and we went to two of the three, so we bought like the 46 dollar, it was like $48 or whole opening night. Yeah, you could there was like it was like a three movie thing and we went to two of the three so we'd About like the 46 thought it was like $48 or something. Yeah, I think you couldn't I think when you tried you couldn't buy the ticket for all three or something And it was rough because Griffin and I both had pneumonia at the time Oh, and so we like crawled out of bed to go. I was like there's no way I'm gonna miss this and it was totally worth it Yeah, and then the next day Quentin Tarantino had pneumonia. Yeah, except except next to us this fucking guy was eating a Frito pie like it like Frito pie is a smelly smelly food, especially if you're all sick, you know Yeah, I should have by everything he was so fucking loud and he made us to eat one free-dope pie for like I don't know 45 minutes and I hope that guy got pneumonia nice when I was watching Avatar
Starting point is 00:56:02 There were like a bunch of teenagers sitting in front of me and they all had like snuck in food and they like throughout the movie that kept opening like these really loud plastic packages And like rummaging around the old like man When Bert when Bert and I saw Saturday at people were so well behaved everybody in the theater was fucking silent It was great. I didn't hear a pee about anybody the entire movie. Yeah, that was like that one I always I saw it I maxed to during one of the action sequences You know, there's some pretty loud action sequences in the movie like there was it was really loud and really intense and then like The the sound for the movie kind of you know tapered off very quickly and then I could hear I heard like the last half of someone's phone ringing Like the last half of the ringtone going off before they really got to it nice man speaking that I was I
Starting point is 00:56:41 Get so mad at the movies any non-alamo shows, because like, I, I was sitting there watching Avatar, and you know, I was watching with Bernie and his son, his oldest son, and I was like, I was sitting in a thick, I can't wait till my kid is old enough to go to movies like Avatar, because she's four, and there's absolutely no way she should see a movie like Avatar, completely inappropriate, right? And then as I get out, I'm in front of a family
Starting point is 00:57:00 of like nine, five-year-olds. Yeah. Who the, what is wrong with these parents? That's like the parents I see like if I go to something to eat like you know I hop at like 1 a.m. on a Thursday night and it's like oh there's a family here what? Like yeah. You can't fault them for taking, I mean I can fault them
Starting point is 00:57:18 for taking a kid to the theater to watch Avatar but you and I when we were that age I'm sure we saw way worse movies. At five? I'm sure we were watching like porquies by that point or something. I didn't see porgies in the theater I did see it, but I don't know man. I mean I saw some inappropriate stuff most of the stuff I saw was rated on comedies like yeah 48 hours Beverly Hills with the word Beverly Hills in apparently Most people shit like that but like avatar has like people getting ripped apart and stuff
Starting point is 00:57:47 That's not like I can't I'm Yeah, I don't know that's yeah, I don't know. I'm not I'm only put off by taking a young child to a theater Or like that like that night that you and Bernie and I and Might have been Jason and Matt to we went we were stuck in Seattle and we had a while before our flight So we went to the went to the movie theater at 10 o'clock and we saw that Samurai movie. I don't know what it's called. Do you know what I'm talking about? Sixth-string Samurai. I didn't go with your boy. Did you watch the last samurai? No, it was like it was a It was a teenage green Ninja Turtles. It was like a child. I don't know if it was a child in a fat movie It was subtitled. It had one word name. Hero? Hero. Yeah, and
Starting point is 00:58:23 And there was like a six and a seven year old kid in front of me. Those people getting their faces chopped off and stuff and it's just like it's just it's not appropriate. Yeah. They got to get used to it. It's a cruel world out there Jeff. I guess. I so I finally saw taken the other day. Like we talked about you love that movie so much. I totally realized now why you love that movie. Because it's a it's a story about a father who protects his daughter. And I'm like, absolutely Jeff loves this movie. It makes so much more sense. Whether I have a kid or not, still a great movie. Oh, it's a fantastic movie, but I can understand why you love it so much.
Starting point is 00:58:52 The only reason is just tremendous. Dude, he is a badass. He's only expected from him. Yeah, the scene in the dinner table area in France, holy crap. That's one of the most old fucking moments in the history of film. Oh, you're an expectant of your badass, because he was such a fucking pussy and fatter menace. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:59:10 You're like fucking, I'm a chalping man. Eat that lightsaber dick. I will say one of my favorite scenes of fatter menace is when they're in the, that force field wall and they're running and they like, they have to wait for the force field to open. And then like, what's the Darth Maul's
Starting point is 00:59:22 can I have like a lion and a cage waiting. And Liam Neeson's just sitting there like meditating like that's a cool little You know I did not like Liam Neeson in Phantom Minus very much. I thought he was just bland and boring I should do that video right the Qui-Gon Jinn is the worst Jedi ever. Yeah, that was fucking fun That's a link dump. All right, but hey, do we have any hint when I talk about or show you wrap this one up? We should probably wrap it up. Yeah save up Army of two comes out next week looking forward to it. Yeah, we'll be having a ton of videos now DLC and What DLC and Dragon Age something comes out? They got push it. It's it's going yesterday. Yeah
