For our introducing, the Rooster Team is Rump Tank.

Hey everyone, welcome to the UH Podcast. Yeah, I don't know what to say about that. So it's like something on an Epcot. I only picked that one because the guy was so confident he made the sub-trip his email. Epic awesome theme. Oh wow, they do. So it was like, it's so epic and so awesome I had to use it. It was undeniable.

It's like, let's just leave in chocolate in a house around a woman. You know she's gonna eat it. We've been building up for this for the past 57 episodes, but this is really an intervention. We're here to stop here. From drinking. We're really concerned about you. We're all your friends.

We love you. We want you to do the right thing. My mom's gonna love this podcast. We want you to scale back to just drinking beer constantly as opposed to constantly drinking hard liquor. It's a me calories and beer. You know for the drunk tank podcast, we don't often talk about drinking. That's true. Well when we do Jeff gets in trouble. You went to Vegas, did you get a lot of drinking done in Vegas? Yeah, we drank a lot in Vegas. I want 200 bucks in Vegas. And I need your solutions. You actually made more than anyone else.

Let's try. I know, that's great. You were the only one who came up positive. I was going to go last minute, but I just couldn't. I was too busy. I'm doing, we just got a new project that came on. So I'm writing that, while writing other stuff, and producing everything in between.

So it's pretty busy right now. If I can want to warn people ahead of time for my Legion of fans on the podcast, I might not be here for the next couple podcasts. I might be in one I call my production hole where just heads down. Okay, we should make sure we talk about late night talk shows before you go on the maps again. You fuckers you go back to your lost discussions or whatever the hell y'all talking about. We talk about lost anymore because you guys don't watch it. Yeah, you definitely will find it. I have time for TV. Man, they're getting to the point. They're getting to the point now.

You're doing it. I'm painting. You're drinking. You're drinking. You're stomachaches. I painted from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. last night. That was that's that's that's this week. Yeah, you know, Griffith told me that was your idea. It was my idea. It was? Yeah. Jeff, you can hand it so many stupid projects that you have to work on when you go home from work Why would you come up with another project for yourself? I don't know why not dude? God?

Maybe like a lot of my life like short as they can be going home and saying to my wife. Hey, we should go shopping Let's go do that this weekend. Let's get the malls. It's like my wife's dream for me to go home and say something like that I just you know what? I want to rearrange stuff in the house I Hate I was sick of the colors in my house sick of looking at them So I'm fucking deal with it, right? Is it something else going on? Yeah, it was you're drinking a lot. I'm not Thinking you have a bad stomach and now you're getting sick of the colors something else going on your life

No, you nothing you got sold your bean bag chair Didn't you sold my bean bag? Now the bean bear check is good The bean bear is a bean bag What? I threw a bean bear check This is really my mom's gonna listen to this podcast and think it's the alcoholism thing. It's true I'm really not drinking that much right now At this moment. Yes, that's true. I had a I had a. Just here. Two seconds ago, you couldn't say bean bag chair. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Yeah, well, that is that something that is a sound investment that you expect I would just throw it away I'd put it out in the front yard type on Craigslist free bean bag chair and gone and that's why I have a hundred dollars And you don't I have two hundred dollars because my friends went to Vegas. That's true

I turn 50 dollars into 200 so technically I won 150. Let's get using Vegas math. I won 200 It's not the way works. Whatever one of you come home with you've won. Yeah, that's what I'm gonna say because if you're leaving It's lost. It's not the way it works. Whatever money you come home with you've won. Yeah, that's what I'm gonna say because if you're leaving it's lost It's going exactly. Anything you come back with that's all positive. Where did you win the money for me Jack? the firt I doubled up to 50 at MGM grand and Then I double up the hundred at the aria the new hotel. What do you think of the aria? It's it's really nice. It's a real big and actually actually we saw a fan at the crap stable. What do you think of the Aria? It's really nice. It's real big. And actually,

we saw a fan at the Crab Stable. You recognize Joel. That was kind of cool. What was that awkward? Did you make sure the dice rolled good? No, it was like after it was all over. We were sitting there and he was like, oh yeah, and he's like, oh, you know, Joel had to color up because he had, you know, stacks of chips. What does that mean? That's when you have like ones and fives and 25s, and you just give them all to them, and they just give you like two hundred dollar chips or whatever. It's so you can walk around with like three or four chips as opposed to 80 chips. Yeah and so he slid it over to like the boss and he's like here we're calling her up Joel's chips and he's like wait what? He's like oh yeah you're Joel right? He's like yeah and he's like oh yeah I'm a fan. Oh it was really surreal and cool. I asked Jack if he had a good time

on this trip and he said yeah it was one of the best times ever it was crazy and I said what was the best part of the trip for you? What was like the most fun? And he told me it was turning off the lights while Joel was taking a dump in the bathroom. He told me the most funny he had was watching Joel Twitter people when they're on the plane leaving Vegas. No, no, no, I was talking about seeing Joel have a good time,

which you rarely see. It sounds like you're out. So Joel's best part of the weekend was Twittering people from the plane. And your best part of the weekend was turning off the lights at him in the bathroom What do you normally do like how do I live that that's the fucking highlight of your weekend in Vegas? I need an alcohol intervention you need a fun to No Okay, yeah sure you want me to explain

No, okay, no, we do want to explain that we can make fun of him more all right So we were at the are you like I was staying at the Sahara like what you know like I had my cardboard bed and you know Crap you you and stuff like that But Joel is the are ex who wanted to check out the new place So we went to his room because he had to change or something like that and he went to the restroom and we were looking at it That like this switches and stuff on the wall and there was like you know dim lights Reading time and then good night. There's literally a button that said good night next to his bed. It's like, what does that do? So we hit it, and the curtain starts shutting automatically, like the the thin curtain and the blackout curtain both

start shutting automatically, and all the lights turn off in the whole room. Like even the TV turn off, everything turn off, it was awesome. And then all of a sudden, we start hearing noises from the bathroom, but I can't really make out what he's saying. Apparently, it turned off the lights in the bathroom as well. So all Joel's taking a dump, the lights turned off. Man, no, we, ladies, lock up your daughters. The Jack and Joel are on the couch. So that was fun. It was pretty funny.

But also, yeah, many other things about Vegas were cool, but they will not be repeated. You are, here we go. Yeah. He's an ex-agre. You were obnoxious to follow on Twitter that we can. You were in Vegas.

Oh, yeah, with your stupid Vegas. Tag. I I I we that how we should have read it. Yeah. Not only do we like five or six across the weekend. I don't know. Like that. Not like not Joel's Twitter spam at the airport.

Our flag got delayed. So we were really bored. Now Gus was at home a weekend and Jeff was drunk the entire time. You know, even that. Yeah, I had a blast. I could totally make fun of you. You know, I played in Marigolds all weekend and you only went to Vegas. Marigolds!

What are you doing? It's gardening. Dear Lord, how do you guys get sucked into this stuff? I don't understand. I love doing it. I like that. I realize that when I'm gardening, it's weird. It's like a time when I can sit there and work on something with my hands and then not have to deal with anyone.

It's like, you know, I've got a project I'm working on just right here. It's something I can work on for a couple hours and you see an immediate return. You do not live in my neighborhood. You are absolutely correct. Plus, it's like, I don't know, well, you don't have a kid, but in my life, I am around people 24 hours a day. The only time I'm alone is like the six minutes I'm in the shower, and then usually Millie's standing on the other side of the shower curtain talking to me while I'm taking a shower and working in the yard, suddenly Griffin and Millie are in my A.

So, is that you? So you hate your life and you're escaping into your yard? No, but it is nice to have a little quiet. Solitude. I can respect that. I heard the chickens. So you hate your life and you're escaping into your yard? No, but it is nice to have a little quiet. Solitude. I can respect that. How are the chickens? Chickens are good. It's like, they're huge.

Jim's got chickens. Did we talk about that yet? Did we? No, I don't think so. I got five chickens, baby chicks. Five, I think it's six. Five. Oh, OK.

What you got turned into a muck nugget already? No, they're like two weeks old now, three weeks old. So let me cut. A little feather, a little wings. Lay this out for us. You got chickens that are cute and you like them, but what's the ultimate plan for these chickens? Oh, they're going to lay eggs for about two years,

and then I'm going to eat them. You're really going to eat your chickens? Yeah, I don't see why not. I'm not getting that attached to them. I check out a little one today. You have a daughter, you have a tiny little cute daughter in your house who is raising chickens that you're going to kill.

Who loves to eat chicken? Oh man. Just didn't make the connection yet though, had you? Currently loves to eat chicken. She asked what we were gonna do with them, I said the chickens are gonna lay eggs and then when they're older and their old chickens were gonna eat them. She was totally fine with that. I make it very clear when she eats a hamburger that to explain to her that she's eating a cow. I wanted to understand the ramifications of eating meat. Well what's going on? Look at you. and the ramifications of eating meat, or what's going on.

Well, look at you. Okay. I mean, you tell her this between like, swigs and gin. Yeah. Is that the way it is written out? Let me tell you he's on the swirly. So it's vodka right now.

Who's gonna kill the chickens? Ideally, Griffin. Yeah, right. That's the way you're killing the chicken. I don't think I could do it. This is the way you can. I'll tell you right now, it's the way. I don't think I could do it. I think I think right now Griffin can Griffin wants to try I bet the first time it happens you call Adam over and Adam kills the first one for you And then Griffin doesn't matter that I think Griffin can do it

I have confidence in her. Yeah, she's pretty tough. I definitely could not do it I couldn't but that being said you're defying me drunk. Yeah, well Maybe I'll my hammer you hammering is home enough? The way I look at it is if I can't kill a chicken for food, then I shouldn't be eating chicken, right? Not necessarily no. Yes, I look at that way. If I can't eat a living or a once living being, I should be able to be, I don don't know to have the stamina to take that being his life That being said if I can't kill the chickens and they just have to end up continuing to live

That's fine to because chickens are really good for your yard Chicken chicken chicken shit is a great fertilizer and chicken's eat bugs and so they they're like awesome pest control Are you guys gonna do that compost program? They just announced yesterday? They announced like I already compost so you're gonna have no bugs and my chicken shit. That's a win-win. No, there's a compost program. Yeah, there's like the city of Austin that's announced that if you go buy the compost

whatever bin, they'll give you like up to $100 rebate. Mother, I just bought a composter like a month ago. I paid $90 for it. You should look into it. I guess I will. No, I don't need two composters. Oh, I should look into it. That's just crazy.

That's ridiculous. I don't really understand what the composting thing is. Is it essentially where you're just littering in one part of your yard? Pretty much. Well, I mind like a big, a big, like, uh, barrel. Like a big barrel on a trash can. On a swivel. Well, it's like, it's like on a pole and you spin it. Like, uh, like if you pull a lot of your numbers out of it, right? Yeah. And then you just take all of your natural waste from your house. Like, I don't know, banana peels, orange peels. Why is it always banana peels?

Why is that like, I like bananas. Why is that the penultimate organic trash that always bananas the gills? That's a good question. Coffee grounds, all that kind of stuff. You just throw it in there, and then when you weed, throw, or grass clippings, you throw all that in there. And then once every four or five days, you just spin it once. And then about two months, you have dirt.

Have you seen those new sun chip bags? Really, really good dirt. Totally compostable. No, but that sounds awesome. They're like, I guess they're made out of plant fiber now. And after like 13 weeks, they totally disappear if you're composting. When I went to this thing called, they have this phenofat tire ale,

which none of us like, uh, they have this thing called tour de fat, which is like a traveling beer festival. Jackson Miller with it. I mean, have you been to a jet? No. And they have like a base stop at his house. They have a bunch of,

they have a bunch of like wacky bicycles, and it's really cool actually. It's kind of like kind of a bunch of the flug tag thing Okay, and they have a lot a lot of cool competitions and shit and I went to it last year and They had beer cups that were made out of corn and they composted a couple of them. Yeah, that's cool Yeah, great. There's like a plastic cup, but it's totally made out of corn and suddenly you're an environmentalist. Yeah He's raising chicken chickens talking about composting. If they make an 80% post-consumer content dequila bottle.

That's why I believe I just want to hope the environment. This is like the most weirdest tangent we've ever started a podcast off on. Think so. How do we get into gardening and uh, I don't even know. We got in the channel. Jeff bought chickens. That's weird. Chickens are I have no chickens. I also I do have chickens, but they're in my refrigerator. There's a little package with a horrible Styrofoam yellow plate underneath them.

I'm doing everything I cannot get attached. Like I check on them once a day. I don't have a name. Any of them yet. Millie only gets to go check on them in the morning before school and at night before she goes to bed. So we don't handle them really. Yeah, but they're not out yet. You know only gets to go check on them in the morning before school and at night before she goes to bed. So we don't handle them really. Yeah, but they're not out yet. You know, they're not in your studio. Once they're out and about, it's a different story.

That's true. I think and also see, give us the touches you want to them. In two years, you can learn to hate anything. That's a very good point. I mean, but the two years rolls around 2012. I mean, the way things are going with the earthquakes and the volcanoes, you're going to want to eat those damn things anyway. Yeah, I'm just, I'm just getting ready. Maybe

that's what he's doing. He's, uh, his head in his bets. Yeah. Fucking volcano in Iceland. How is that possible? I don't know, dude. Iceland has a lot of volcanic activity. They have a lot of geothermal springs. We've talked about this before in the podcast haven't we? Iceland's geothermal springs. Yeah. We talked about that. Yeah. I thought we had. Yeah. I think we might have, uh, talked about it before. Yeah, there's a lot of volcanic activity in Iceland, and they're well known for having hot springs. They have the world's best hot springs, supposedly. Because of all the volcanic activity. I know that it's Japan. I went to fucking Iceland,

and I was there for like three days, and I couldn't get anybody to go to a geothermal spring with me, so I didn't go. That's so. Why do you have to send me to go with you? I was a little, I don't know. Can you go to yourself? I guess I was like 18 or dumb are isolating people hot like I think like I associate it with Sweden for some reason because it's cold and Nordic And I think Icelandic people are pretty hot. Are they yeah?

They're also I was I watched the show a while ago. Well, all about Iceland today I watched the show a while ago that said that people about Iceland today. I watched the show a while ago that said that people in Iceland are the healthiest people in the planet. Really? Yeah. People who live, can I have to be? The weak ones die. Yeah, it's just they just eat the fucking potatoes and stuff.

You're from Iceland, right? Yeah. Yeah. Isn't the developer for Eve Online based out of Iceland? Yeah, they are. Because I remember at one time we went to that child's play charity dinner, I was trying to bid on the tour of their studio, not because I was interested in the game, but just because I wanted to one time we went to that child's play charity dinner I was trying to bid on the tour of their studio not because I was interested in the game

But just because I wanted to get a trip to Iceland Really? Yeah, how much did I go for do you remember? I don't remember it was like it was the first year of child's play and I thought if I spend 700 bucks for two people you know for a trip for two that's not bad And then that's what I went up to and then I think it went up to like 1200 I still a good deal name a city in Iceland quick Reckadjivik? Yeah, Reckadjivik Reckadjivik? Okay, I'm gonna look at how much a cause I got from Austin to Reckadjivik and then I think it went up to like 1200. It's still a good deal. Name a city in Iceland quick. Record Jivek? Yeah, record Jivek.

Record Jivek? Okay. I'm gonna look at how much it cost like a mosque in a record Jivek. Uh, supposedly Iceland is one of the most expensive places on the planet to vacation. Really? Yeah. Why?

I don't know. Just like the average hotel cost is like $400 and $9 there. Wow. It's supposed to be really expensive. Yeah, even there. I was on a military base though. Was it pretty? That cost four years. Was it 30? That was it? Uh, there. I was on a military base. Was it pretty? That cost four years. Was it pretty? Not where I was. No, just a lot of snow.

Specifically where I was. Well they always say that I think ice. Greenland is made of ice and ice. It was pretty snowy where I was and it was just like kind of like tundra. I don't know. It was just kind of flattened plain Z kind of lame. But I hear that there are parts of like tundra. I don't know, it was just kind of flattened, plainzy, kind of lame. But I hear that there are parts of Iceland that are great. Tundra is the worst tile on the map. That desert. Tundra seems to worth the desert to me.

I agree. Now, couldn't stuff an aquator. That's it. It is. Tundra is the worst. If you start, you could get animals that graze on tundra though, right? Like nothing nothing at all can happen on desert if you start in your first wagon is right next to tundra like motherfucker We're am I I'm completely lost

It's any kind of game where you have resources or anything tundra is always like the worst possible one to have yeah Tundra and desert any like RTS or like Sled Olives of Catan or any of that. Or civilization. Yeah. Jack, we played video games. All right. I think you picked up on that. Who's excited about the Halo Reach beta?

Who's excited about Halo 3 being games on demand too? That's cool. I think it's pretty fucking cool. I'm not even thinking about Halo Reach. I'm just trying. I'm trying not to. They put a lot of information out there, but. Invasion and all the different game modes. And I'm just I know it's coming. So I'm just trying to stay put a lot of information out there but invasion and all the different game modes and I'm just

I know it's coming so I'm just trying to stay away from all of it It was funny. I really haven't watched or read anything either I was waiting for it waiting for it to unlock my ODST menu There there were a bunch of screenshots that hit on Kataku today and I looked at them all specifically I just As I guess that's how we all approach Halo now, but I just looked at the environments for set stuff You know, so we'll see how cool the buildings and stuff looked. I didn't even pay attention to the Spartans. And what was going on, I realized it was about like 20 pictures in. I was

like, why am I just looking at barrels? I guess it's nature. That's the barrel technology. Oh, it looks great. Great barrels. Great. Fantastic barrels. Now, how do you think they're going to count for reach being a prequel, but the barrels look better? Because like the covenant fucked up, their barrel factories right away. It's like any attacking force that's the first thing they go for, barrel factories.

If I was covenant, I would do that. Knowing, looking at the battlefields, they're like, do we gotta take out these crates, actors? There's crates everywhere. It's very important to their culture. That's essentially the same fucking thing as Star Wars though, right?

No, I know, that's the, I'm making a joke about it. Like how they explain the weapons going backwards in time and the armor and they like what's gonna happen to load out Between reach and halo one right right? It's just you just accept I guess the yeah, I don't know So basically bungee made halo one two three halo point five halo negative one what's halo point five ods T I mean I mean be one point five one point five two point five two point five Halo 0.5, Halo negative one. What's Halo 0.5? ODST. I don't know if you can say that. I mean, it'd be 1.5. 1.5. 2.5.

2.5. I thought it took place. I thought ODST took place as new mombasa was getting attacked. That's in Halo 2. Yeah, Master Chief shows up as new mombasa's like been attacked. We're going to get into a numerology debate here. So does Halo 2 start at 2, or does it end at 2? Halo 2 starts at 2. Then just 2.5. Refuse yourself. So it'd 2 start at 2 or does it end at 2? Halo 2 starts at 2.

Then just 2.5. So it'd be 1.5. No, 2.5. It happens after the event at the beginning of Halo 2. It does? I thought ODST took place before Halo 2. I thought you said spider. No, I thought you said spider.

I thought you said. No, it's 2.5. OK. No, Halo 2 starts with the covenant landing on Earth. OK. But when is Master Chief show up? What, like, when you, it doesn't matter. You said Halo 2 is at the beginning of Halo 2. OK.

So then anything after that, you know it is either covenant on Earth. It's been a while since I played Halo 2. Gus, does it make you mad? I also contribute to a conversation you know you're going to have to cut out later. It's frustrating. have to cut out later. I'm just trying to remember the time for later. So the memory stick upgrade. For some reason, even though I can only put one free game on it, or maybe two of I'm lucky, that has made me fall absolutely in love with the games on

demand service. Like this is now a new console to me where it's all games on demand. It's no discs. You just have a library of games on your console. You know, even though I have to upgrade my hard drive again now to 250 because I'm buying so many of these damn things. Well, I mean, we essentially had that with arcade anyway, but yeah, I guess the bigger games. Yeah, like the retail game. Yeah, like I mean, I might go back and play a believe in now. Yeah, I know exactly what you're saying, though. Like, I saw that Cain and Lynch is coming out coming the games on the man I've never had any to decide to play that game But I thought like 20 bucks. Yeah, why not? I'll get it

Yeah, but I feel like I'm now gonna be playing games that are all Eight months old nine months older in the case of Halo 3 came out this week. That's what three three years old I'm almost three years old. Yeah September, oh seven. Yeah, that's crazy doesn't seem like that but it makes me wonder why they didn't put especially with the reach beta coming up and you need to have odst to play the reach beta why not put up odst on games on demand or better yet put the even if you're gonna put halo three up put the halo three multiplayer this that came with odst it's really honestly that's probably what people want i've been been, I've found that ever since I've had, you know, now that I have this memory stick that I'm having to manage what games I'm ripping to my memory stick.

No, it's true. Like I'm only ripping like the game one or two games that I'm playing right now. Then it's like, oh, I'm not playing, you know, borderlines anymore can get that off my stick. And, okay, I got to put splursel on there. I wouldn't, I wouldn't rip any games to my USB stick. I would just do games on demand because then it's you don't need the disc you just carry it on the stick. I've got Mass Effect and Resident Evil 5 on mine right now I think. Yeah see those are both the man. Yeah it's perfect and you have those portable plug-in wherever you got the games to go. Yeah I have Dead Rising on mine

right now. Yeah I saw you playing yesterday. I don't know why I just all of a sudden have picked up and started playing Dead Rising again. I'm pretty excited. Did you guys read the announcement that the dead rising to demo is actually gonna be a paid demo and it's a prequel to dead rising Case zero. Case zero really called down jack would that be dead rising 1.7 or would that be a 4 would that be dead rising to zero point four? It would be dead rising zero point five right because it takes place after dead rising one right point it would be dead rising 0.5 right because it takes place after dead rising right right right exactly it's well Gus it's content that wasn't contained in dead rising one right so it's below that of course what that's how we feel asshole it's a dick it's dead rising to the 10th hour no it's yeah is the demo

also gonna be co-op I don't know if it's co-op, but it's like a three-hour demo. But they said that there will be co-op in Dead Rising 2. Yeah, that's a very cool announcement. Very, very, very cool. I think everybody's, I know we hear in this office are dying for a, you know, co-op experience. I would kind of... I do the Saminy players, there just can be two players. Probably the same. But between that and four player co-op and crackdown, it's going to be a very fun summer. Dead Rising 2 multiplayer, I call No Joel and No Bernie. I'm just saying it right now. No, you don't want me left for dead co-op. You want me in Dead Rising co-op.

Dead Rising is a totally different game. It's not as intense or as fast as left for dead. That's, you've got to move fast. You don't know, they've westernized it. Remember we talked about this? That is true. That's a good point. Westernized it.

It's not good. Not good. What does that mean? Westernizing. I don't know. I don't remember. Capcom said they felt the original was two Japanese. That's why they hired a Western developer.

So we all, all the characters that eat cheeseburgers. They have a big ride horses. All the zombies have to win her account hanging out at the mall hungry what's up with loss this year did you all hear that blizzard has started selling mounts for world of warcraft yeah I saw that what's your deal with that you I guess you could pay 25 bucks and buy a mount that you can't get in the other way good they supposedly they made about two million dollars the first four hours that that Of course went on sale. I think wow should go all the way and they should have unique mounts that they auction off

So like if you're the only person on your server who can have it. How much do you think that would go for? Jesus come on ridiculous. You're the only person who can have that mount. That's crazy. Yeah, that would be insane. $10,000 am I going too low? No, it's low. Is there anything different about or special about the mount? Like is it faster? No, no, okay. Just, just cosmetic. Yep. That's a real social environment. To me, to a lot of people that is no different than the real world, that's no different than people buying a Porsche versus buying a Ford. Yeah, absolutely.

You know, that's important to them. Yeah, they've already been selling pets for a while, I think, in the budget store for like 10 bucks, but they just... They're like charity, weren't they? Are they started as charity? Now we're going to... Oh, yeah, the first one or two. Oh, yeah.

First pet. What did you fed your pet enough to turn into a mount? That'd be fucking dope. I would do that. I would buy that. You'd raise mounts. Interesting. I would pay money a while if I could like physically

like hit your ride on other people, like a ride on their shoulders. Like they didn't have any say into whether or not. So my character doesn't get tired. He could just run everywhere on the back. There it is. I don't know if you can see it. It's the celestial steed. Oh wow.

It looks cool. That does look cool And then see that should not that should be more than 25 bucks because you're gonna be it being so cheap Makes it more common which makes it worth less so make it more expensive make it rarer and then it makes it a better buy I just right think yeah, cuz like in another what two months There's just gonna be 10 million people with that amount exactly and it's gonna a better buy. That's what I think. Yeah, because like in another, what, two months, there's just gonna be 10 million people with that amount. Exactly. And it's gonna have lost all to peel. I mean, I know the logic is there,

oh, there's ripping off the fans or whatever, but in a way, it's like why I put something, you know, the one has to make it a free download of 25 bucks. I'm sure they're just testing the waters, you know, this isn't like an entry level amount. And then as time goes on, they're probably gonna have more and more expensive

and exotic looking ones. I would think yeah It's like oh, yeah, you oh you have the $25 amount. I've got the $75 amount. How much would you spend from out? Yes? Zero you wouldn't do it. I wouldn't do it. Yeah, I agree with Gus on that one. I just play the game. Yeah There's people who pay a lot of in-game money for ridiculous amounts and what if it's like a what if it's like a math mount a Mathemat like you ride around on a fraction You don't get any algebra source any benefit from it's just Great, why's that fun you just confused like an entire forum thread. I saw that someone added dot orgasource to urban dictionary

I saw that yeah, yeah, not with with a period in front not with DOT That's fine. I thought that was confusing. I think it's up to interpretation. That's not the way it's spelled. Alternate spelling. But you get for being pioneer, you get to set the standard. What was the last time you got on, wow, Gus. Oh, it's been a while. Me too.

It was like right when you started playing. It was a pre-ice crown citadel. It must have been like patch 3.2 or so. Man, they've patched up quite a bit. I jumped on just to see what it was and everything's changed. Or it seems like everything's changed. Yeah, that's always like that What's being a patches guess what I did this weekend? You got a dog. I played uncharted two on my ps3

How long do you think Jeff it took me from putting my disc in the ps3 to be able to play uncharted two? I want to guess also after Jeff. I'm gonna guess it took you 45 minutes. Uh, yes, dude I've one small question. Yes, but I'm for clarification. Did you also have to do an OS update? Yes. Okay. In that case, it took you an hour. I'm gonna say $1. Jack is gonna be the big winner here,

because everybody went over. It took me 30 minutes. Ah, really? I was gonna say 27. There were, there was the OS update, the PS3, then there was six updates to unchartedarted 2 and installs that I had to go through. Six separate installs. I don't know exactly what I was doing, but when it started, it was on one of six and

that process took forever. As a side note to that, Uncharted 2 has DLC coming out this week. I asked if he wanted to make a video for Achievement Hunter for it and he said, yes, I'm going to go start patching my, right now. I grabbed the opportunity to plug it in to start the patching process. Since it's a multiplayer pack, we should, I should bring my PS3 in from home and we should do two-player stuff. Yeah, let's do it. We'll offer something.

Let's totally do it. There's multiplayer and Uncharted 2. Yeah. Yeah, they even put out a beta for it. There's also, you can do, there's a- I think combat game in my opinion. No. No, it doesn't.

I thought it was weird. But there's also like a machinima functionality in it as well. Oh, cool. You can like move the camera around and you can't rewind. But other than that, it's all there. That's cool. We've got like filters for the lens and stuff to give a different look. Kind of like, uh, they have that in Halo 3 also.

Have there been any big machin them projects done and uncharted? Have you seen any? No, I don't think I've seen any funny. I was just having a conversation with that with somebody about that just the other day Yep that that they were saying that if you had access to the cameras that developers do that you could everyone can be making mission Mysteries and I was pointing out to him that Uncharted put entire machine them a mode with green screens and sets and everything probably the most advanced machinima specific mode in any game. I've never seen an uncharted machinima series. No Well the one problem it has and I don't know if you're talking about this before is that you can't rewind

Which is a big deal. That's a big deal You can't go back. you know, if you miss your shot, I got a fucking quit and then restart it, restart it again. And I was, we were talking about this, it was on that pod-tacular podcast this weekend. Mm-hmm. Literally all we can. The three day podcast. Four and a half hours they record. Four and a half hours. Four and one half hours. What are they cut it down to? That's like our podcast. five or something, right?

Jack something John tank part two point I like the defeated side point point four two But we were talking about machinima in general and I always pointing out and you can back me up Jeff that You can get up to you guys you can also back me up that you could put all the tools in the world For machinima into a game in the hopes that people will make videos from it and they will go and they will popularize your game Or promote your game beyond the initial retail sales you can do all those things if you leave out one or two things It's utterly useless. Yep, and it's and it's one or two things on a list of like 10 things that if you don't have one or two of those things, that's it. It just can't be done. Yeah. And there was

a long time ago when Gabe and Tyco made this challenge to the industry where they said, send us your screenshots. We'll tell you if you're putting out stupid and shitty screenshots after what was it? Doom 3? The game type of said that? Yeah. They want to be the clearing house for all screenshots of the entire video game industry likewise I don't know why if and maybe I'm sounding a little arrogant when I say this I don't know why if you're making machinima tools for your game and you're putting the in there why you wouldn't just drop us a line And say hey you guys do this every single fucking day Got any advice here and we'd be happy to do that

Three of Charlie free 3 of charge. Otherwise you would know what, like, do you remember driver 3 had that same kind of a thing? And it was completely useless. I don't remember how to use it, so I don't know. But I mean, we see that all the time is where people put in some kind of mode. You know, if they're doing it for machine and mother wise, if you're doing it for theater, the fine just have it rewind and play and you know, replay the match, which I don't understand at this point.

Halo 3's been off for three years. We just just said that why doesn't every game have a theater mode now I know it's crazy every game most people or most developers are afraid to give people that degree of freedom to look at their game you think that's what it is yeah I mean if you have everyone examining and moving around in places they can't normally get to it really exposes like all the shortcuts that people normally take to put a game out. I guess. Yeah, but what if you just replayed from the same angle in the same view? Like remember, remember a crazy taxi when you would complete a run. It would then replay the entire run for you. Yeah. And I think we all we all love crazy taxi. Like we would sit there and watch the entire thing through every time. It's a good run. Fund to see. Yeah, which also there's a big rumor that it's

I don't know if the big room, but there's a rumor that it's gonna hit Xbox live arcade. Sweet. Oh really? Would be fucking great. I can be pretty cool. It'd be really cool We gotta get one of those wheels those Microsoft's driving wheels. We have on somewhere. Do we? Yeah, we did for some reason. I think we got a dud. Yeah, that's it. That's it That's a world with the damn. Yeah, that didn't seem to be fun to play with whatsoever. It didn't work But if you did turn left and that was it right and we never returned it for whatever reason It was like 120 bucks. I think we were just all it was when the office was in Buda and we were so far away from the store Yeah, go back to the store plus it's driving thing. We don't drive none of us drive at all

No, not really I used to have a I used to have a Yoke for when I played battlefield 1942 way back in the day. That was pretty fucking cool. Oh yeah, I remember that. Yeah, just for when you fly helicopters or planes, right? Yeah, as you can switch over to that, that would be your controller when you moved away from mouse and keyboard. And I have the yoke.

We worked for the Tanks too, so it was pretty cool. I've still really been enjoying the hell out of bad company too. I know you guys didn't really jump into it except for Jack. Dude, new update came out today as a matter of fact. Did you actually drink Dr. Pepper to get the real deal? Yes, it's a really weird DLC pack, or there's four new achievements and four separate mini DLCs.

And if you live in the UK or Europe or wherever, you can just buy them for like 120 points each or whatever. But if you're living in the US, you have to get them from bottle caps on Dr. Pepper. That's so weird. And then you have to enter the code in. As a matter of fact, as soon as the podcast is over, Jack and I gotta go to the grocery store.

Yeah, we're cutting videos. By the way, Dr. Pepper, you know, they have the Iron Man helmet on Dr. Pepper cans now. Oh, really? Like, you know, the can is maroon, right? So they have the whole can like it's a helmet from Iron Man with the gold part on one side of of it That sounds awesome. It's pretty cool, man

I'm so excited by your man. Tell you Speaking of movies to be excited about I saw kick ass. Did you like it? Jack would you like to preference how awesome kick ass is before we talk about it? I love kick ass I've seen it twice now and I'm ready to go see it again. Jason messaged me last night to tell me how great it was. Yeah, Jason was telling me yesterday also how great it was. I have a whole journal full of people that say they love the movie. And I will say two or three that say that they didn't get it and they didn't like it.

Kickass? He's very good. Cool. It really is. It's a good movie. I'm actually looking forward to seeing him. My wife says it looks dumb. So I'm going to have to cut some guts time and go watch it by myself. I would like to see it

But my wife says that if we're gonna see a movie we have to see date night No, date that looks funny. It looks like funny to me. Yeah, it is showing at the Ritzview lockdown So let's go let's go. Let's go. Let's cut that night you and I Jeff you and I That was a misplace pronoun. Sounds like a date. Oh, you guys were assholes. Well, you've already seen it. He doesn't want you to have to pay you.

I finally took Monti. We were doing some super late night fight choreography, which is not as dirty as it sounds. And we, I said, hey, 11-1515 showing let's cut out of here take a break And let's go see kick ass and he said okay, and we walked down to the ritz and unfortunately I had to walk him through six street at 11 o'clock at night. I must have a bit of a culture shock for him. Yeah, six streets kind of a nightmare at that time of night And then we got on the movie was 130, you know, or what's there about that's the fight now? That's the fight now are exactly right So it was like keep your head down and I let my keys at the alamo so I

to go back to the alamo that's what all that then come back third time so it was kind of a nightmare but uh yeah Bonnie it was that funny thing you do when you tell somebody something's awesome they I'm talking about the alamo now not okay guys that the alamo is a great experience it's a lot of fun mine you gotta go and you get to convince him for a month or two months or however long now he's lived in Austin six months. They have to go to this thing. We're going to take you. You can have a good time. It'll be great. Then he goes and I guess he just didn't hear any of the stuff I said and he liked it so much. He's explaining to me the entire time how cool this is. I don't get it. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, you have this here in Austin. We don't have this anywhere else like a money. I, this is unique and it's very cool.

Where money lives, he lives across the street from a grocery store that's literally been there for a hundred years. Yeah, they have their old phone registry from like 1904. And this grocery store makes awesome sandwiches. It is literally across the street from where he lives. And like, do you ever go over there and get a sandwich or anything, Monty's like,

huh, I never even noticed that place. I was like, you've got to go there, just cross the street. What's the best sandwiches? What's worse is like six months ago, I gave him a ride home one day, and I go, holy shit, you live next to this awesome grocery store. Do you have the best sandwiches? You should go there sometime, and he was like, huh, really? And I go, yeah, it's like right there. It's like in your front yard, you've got to go sometime. The sandwich to get the BLT, the sandwiches are amazing. And he's like, yeah, okay, maybe. And then I asked him the other day, I was like, do you ever go? And he's like in your front yard you gotta go sometime the sandwich to get the BLT the sandwiches are amazing and he's like yeah okay maybe and then I asked him the other day I was like do you ever go and he's like go where okay and I can tell Monty's work

with us for a while now simply because I could if I could say to Monty are you hungry and he's like yes I could just get him something to eat and I know what to eat like I think I could order for pretty much anybody in our office I could order for them at almost any restaurant going knowing what they would like. I don't think for the most part people here aren't very discriminating eaters. Except for Jeff. I'm not discriminating anymore. No, no, Jack. Jack's way worse. Dude, come on. I eat anything though. It's enough for C-Fidget. Jack doesn't eat anything. Like in my defense, I'll eat anything.

You put it in front of me. I'll eat it. I'll eat it till I see a plate. That's basically my mo Jack doesn't eat anything Jack has more rules than you do Jeff about what he'll eat more than I more rules than I did Yeah, that's true. We we we're still stuck with the Jeff of the past Yeah, we've got to deal with the Jeff of the first lot of our last beautiful years I think a lot of that's having a kid and having my kid go I was like hey try that and I could go no Look I'll eat it see yeah first Hey, try that and I could go no Look, I'll eat it see yeah first reading huh, yeah My kids go backwards on me. It's like it's like I give him wolf chili Which is like the easiest thing even your skin. It's gonna go by but

Wolf chili dad's making lunch on the weekend So it's like so we're eating freedom chips with chili on them and that's it awesome And like not eating this. What is this? I go this is chili? It's chili. It's you love and like not eating this. What is this? I go this is chili. It's chili Eat it. It's you love it like not eating it. Look it's basically just spaghetti sauce with a little bit spicier with hamburger Me like hamburgers now and then they're like you know what because you said that not not eating hamburgers They roll they roll back on you like mother fuckers You wait till they fall asleep and sneak some fruit-o-pie in their mouth, moving their face to chew it.

Yeah, and then they eat it and they explain to you why it's hot. Did you know about it? It's so great. Obviously it's great. You can always tell what somebody really likes something is that they tell you how great it is, you know. I think it's funny how people are like that. They want to share something.

Even if they're sharing it with the person who don't have a fight Definitely guilty of that too You know you were talking about fight choreography the other day. I saw some of the new temp stuff that Monty's working on Mm-hmm. I won't know what to spoil it But I saw I saw some of the stuff and I was watching it with Brandon and Brandon said yeah Monty and I choreographed that last night His hand was really close to my crotch. Yeah, he gets some poses there and it gets a little uncomfortable sometimes. So it's a

there's a lot of a lot this now I get too far into it, but there's a lot of blocking and figuring stuff out and then we'll admit that will make sense to you in about a month and a half or two months probably. Did you see Manny's new girl dancing video? Yeah, he made that before he went to pack, and his pack's actually. Oh yeah? Yep, he made that for anime Boston. No, I set up on YouTube. I was like, oh, he was doing that in our honor. That's the funny thing, right? You imagine Monty dancing around and you gotta look through the through the video. Yeah, like I watched that video and I couldn't see any of the girls that noticed I'm on you and that mocap

so you know doing all the little movements I've just taken his hair. He's a good dancer. Video look good. Can we, can we talk about some of the tools we have on the back and on YouTube? Yeah, I think it's one of common knowledge, right? There's a tool that we have on YouTube

where you can see when people stop watching your video essentially when they either navigate away from the video or When they hit stop or whatever they call it hot spots hot spots to what it's called and it's so interesting to see like where people rewind On our videos to watch versus Monies video you know to me like both close up of dancing hot video, you know what I mean? Like with close up of dancing, hot girls and, you know, versus Jeff and Gus looking into the camera. I think our funniest video ever is the one where Lindsay and who is it? Who else is in the AC?

They go to kiss each other, but then they don't. And if you just watch the traffic after they don't kiss, just go, brrrr. I think it takes a second, nose dive when Jeff and I go in. Yeah. And you guys are about to kiss in that scene. And it really knows does but it knows guys before you get close

People are like boasting a jack cord Hey, you ready for Final Fantasy deal of Sapphire fantasy Leifer dead DLC this week. Yeah, did Thursday right tomorrow. Yeah, very very exciting So this is the the piece of DLC that bridges the gap between leopard dead one and leopard dead two right yes Supposedly takes place in Georgia. I think I read somewhere So it looks like it's five hundred sixty points Do you know if it has any new achievements? Yeah, the achievements hit yesterday. Okay, it's got like 10 or 11 new achievements they all look really fun.

And the coolest thing I read about the whole deal is that they've expanded multiplayer. They're going to have 20 new multiplayer types. And then each week they'll have a rotation of it. They didn't say how many, but I'm going to guess four or five different kinds of multiplayer games. And then they'll rotate out. Kind of like bungee.

Yeah, kind of like a playlist, too. Yeah, like a playlist. And I'm really looking forward to that because some of them sound pretty cool. I looked up the DLC Manitory for playlist. Period. Do you know there's a rumor that Infinity Ward is gonna make or Activision is gonna make Call of Duty Multiplayer paid that you have to pay a subscription every month to play that. That will fail. But yeah, I think I think everybody bitch at the map pack was too expensive and

made like true 30 million dollars in the first week. TLC is the thing that has the biggest potential to fuck up what makes the consoles great, which is everyone has the same setup. So now you're going to DLC and we saw when we went to go play Halo 2 is that We had the things they could buy the Halo 2 which is a different discussion We should have but it's like not all the all the maps for free by that point in time But you could tell from those legacy playlists that were still in effect that they were heavily favoring the maps That had come out later later when you guys played but when I played I got a lot of desolation and what's the hang-em-high

Remake, yeah, we're in stone. Yeah, a tombstone And you know, I saw we got a lot of those maps and I wanted to play blood gulps and Zanzibar and I've retowered and I got like one match of I've retowered in the whole thing Yeah, you're totally right I played for about two hours at night and I don't think I played on a like a retail map the entire time And that's that kind of makes sense because at that point when Halo 2 was going out already in Halo 3 was coming in You know if you bought the maps you were like of course I want to play these maps. These are new maps. What's that big map? Where we filmed containment containment?

Is that the snow covered one? No, no, snow one. The one that's like a construction area. Oh, and we had the end of out of mind. Yeah, headlong. That's where recovery one was. Recovery one. Yeah, I guess. That's where a wash got shot. Uh, it's the one where alert.

It's the one where we drive off in the Banshee at the end. Yeah, that's a long headlong. Yeah, that's headlong. That came up every, that was like I played that every. That's a retail map. That is a retail map. Is it? Yeah. Oh, I guess I got that one. That came up every that was like I played that every that's a retail map that is a retail Yeah, oh, I guess I got that one you probably never played it much one much because it was a big team battle Yeah, that might be why I got it same as the quiet

Coagulation I think a coalition at all man I will say I had never played Halo 2 online ever really? I really is that and and going back and doing that original Xbox live was so bad It was such a horrible experience. And it makes me appreciate Xbox Live as it is now. It was just jarring. So I remember at the time playing through it, thinking it was all awesome and everything worked great.

And then you look at the evolution now, and like you said, you look back if you never played it. It seems so weird and archaic to you. And I remember that right before Halo 2 came out, they released that wave of updates. They called it the tsunami update. I don't know if you remember where they like clan support and the in-game messaging and all that stuff, all that stuff specifically for Halo 2.

And now they're turning it all off. Did you guys see that the RVB clan was still rocking in Halo 2? Oh really? No, I didn't. Yeah, and you could go through and look at all the people that were in the RVB2. RVB clan? That's pretty cool. Yeah, it was pretty funny.

That was a good time, man. The Halo 2 is a fun game. We found our old gamer tag. We did. It did the clan. Really? Yeah. Drunk G funk.

It's in there. Is it in the clan? Yeah. Yeah, it's funny. I was looking through just like seeing it else was on the list. I was like, what's drunk G funk? And like, is that GF?

And yeah. You did change gamer tags at some point. Yeah. I changed the game tags when the 360 came out. So your tenure isn't Isn't complete. I have a break in your You think you could recover that old game or tag. Yeah, but it's a totally separate game or tag Yeah, but you think you could recover just to get that shit over cover that game

I could see if I could actually know what you want to get the tenure because you have to be a gold number Right, so you want to get it but yeah, I guess I could I mean he couldn't transfer his game or score either No, no, no, but I know this was I mean There's no hammer score. It was pretty 360. Yeah, right. Oh, so you have nothing on there. No record your game No, yeah, no, I I let it lapse at the end of the like right around the time the 360 came out I For some reason I just wanted to go through the experience fresh. So I just I think I think it was at zero hour That's what happened remember we took our gamer tags on the memory card to import them and get the zero-hour achievement. You made a fresh gamer tag there. I didn't make one there. They also gave you the option to do that there. And that's what you were doing. DG Gus and I was like, oh, this BGG Jeff. Yeah, yeah. I remember you typed it into the computer and

they gave you your card right there. That's when you got it. There you go. Yeah. So we carried ours over and you that's when you dropped yours. But we didn't physically bring our memory our gamer tags. That's not that I didn't in my way. They recovered it. You could go there and recover it to the card. You could, a game retag wasn't a thing then. It was just your account name and the only thing you cared around were saves on your memory that hold on the original I expect that like green interface that you used to

transfer stuff from your. Yeah, I don't think it's confusing. Yeah, but it's so now it's interesting because Halo 2, when you talk about the way that live was back then, Halo 2 was the perfect Xbox Live experience. Everything else was way worse. You know, and if you thought that Halo 2 experience was not as good as it is today, everything else was terrible.

Like Halo 2 at least had the party system and the lobbies and all that. Nothing else worked even that well Well, I was sitting there in a lobby getting messages going how do I check these? What do I like like where do I go to look at my messages? Like it took me a while to remember that the original Xbox controller had the white and the black button Yep, and that you know didn't have the bumpers and I was like how is this seems so weird to me? It's like oh well It's a different controller. You know you had to hit like the bumper to chat over the over the party chat or whatever It was white button. Yeah, you know jack and I were talking about it to the day. It's a different controller. You know you had to hit like the bumper to chat over the party chat or whatever. Because it was a white button.

Yeah. You know Jack and I were talking about it too the day it's kind of funny. Everybody was like saying goodbye to Halo 2 and it was the big send off and it was like we're shutting down that portion like the original Xbox games so live is going to shut down so obviously everybody goes and you know Bids of Farewell to Halo 2. But what about the other games? Yeah exactly. Yeah like number two behind Halo 2 every week in the UU's is Star Wars Battlefront 2

Right. Yeah, there's no what about them like 18 dudes that are still playing the game. They're like, where's our fucking? Where we get to say goodbye? Why is it me doing a story on us? It's true. It's a funer-self The story was really that Xbox live was going away, right? And we saw a bunch of tweaks from the Xbox live team They had a big party and it was celebration of Xbox live But really everyone was just halo to you know, dude. They totally borked that too like they should have ended it at 2 a.m. Central Midnight Pacific time like I was in a party of 16 I was in a game of 16 people going nuts literally had a countdown up until the two air up until midnight and Then a midnight I was like all right we're still playing huh you mad they gave you more time to play well no no I'm mad they never told us what time

they're gonna shut it down yeah I don't know I mean like they they ended it on their terms where they should have let the gamers ended on their own I can I think I'm okay with that I can understand what you're saying I'm guessing that the the the act of turning it off is probably more complex than we imagine. At that party might not be something that we can just... No, no, no, they might not be like literally flipping a switch. At the party they had, the Microsoft party that like everyone on the Twitter accounts that worked at Microsoft was like tweeting pictures of the Xbox Live cake,

they literally had a countdown there and a button they hit and turned it off. So why didn't they make that public? Why didn't they say at this time we're going to shut it down? If you want to be on when it turns off you need to be on here. Maybe they don't want to surge your views or so that's specific. Well I guess they're fine. I mean they're shut it down. Well I could tell you why probably is they didn't want to do that is probably when they were planning all of this stuff from a business level they were probably prepared for people to be upset about the fact they were turning off the service and you don't want to make a lot of ceremonies surrounding turning something off.

They did announce that they'd be like throwing a party with cake. Well, that's private. That's private. Yeah, that's a private thing that they were doing. And then by that point, when people are tweeting, by that point, they knew everyone was kind of celebrating the end of Xbox Live. But very easily, it could go on the other way. It's a fucking internet, essentially.

But the fact that like, you know know major Nelson had a countdown clock. But that was for the guys in the office that ran the service. He had it. No, he had a countdown clock going. He's like okay at this point it's you know everyone assumed when that clock's done it's gone. Plus I've got to imagine that maybe they weren't sure if it was going to shut off. Like they weren't sure if when they hit the button, they would actually turn off, you know. I see Jackson Point.

Why put one date out there if that's not the date? Yeah, I mean, I mean, they put a time out there. They put it, they put the date. They didn't put, I mean, yeah, they made it, they made it, made it also made a timer on his page for midnight, but they all they ever said officially, I think in the release was the date, which,

but why not make it, why not give you a specific time and say, all right, you've literally gotten until this time to finish your games then it's gone And it's like that does that I think by not doing that you're harming you are you're not harming But it pisses off the user base. I know like we had the game running all day waiting for that clock to hit and I backed out thinking Okay, well, it's still gonna be up. I backed out downloaded some maps and I couldn't get back in because I missed it Instead of being in a game, playing when it shut off, I literally just like, oh, you can't get into another game. That's it. Sorry. And I was like, that's the question. Can I ask you a question? Being as it was the first time you'd ever played Halo 2

multiplayer, I'm like, why'd you give a fuck? Yeah, wait a minute. You were saying hello and goodbye in the same day. I think I got mad just because they didn't shut it off. I think if it would have been like, okay, here at 2 a.m. You're in a game of 16 people playing all having a good time counting down Shut it off. That's great. Okay. It's done Jack, but it's like I just effect it went longer and longer. That's what made me mad as your friend and co-worker I'm gonna now from this moment on make it my duty to get you laid I accept. We're gonna make the surgery. Instead of the shutdown, April 14th, it was April 14.5. What was it? 13.7. But I think the

final, when they finally did shut it off, it was like, I think it was 4 p.m. Pacific time, like right around there. Well, you know know guys up until I think yesterday, we're still in Halo 2, they just refused to turn off the game and leave. So they were still had the connection. So you had been in that game, Jack, maybe that's why they didn't give the specific time. If you had still been in that game,

the service would still be going. Maybe that's why yours was off as you left your game and came back, maybe that's the only way they should to put that, maybe you were already off at that point. I don't know. People on Halo 2, you're going out, we're we're streaming their streaming their Halo 2 they were still playing and there was five Maybe if they gave a specific time and everyone logged on and did that then the system we go on forever indefinitely Also, who knows who knows what the pipes are you know how the pipes are allocated for that original Xbox experience

That final day 60,000 people had logged on to play it. You know, they might not have wanted 60,000 people on at the exact same time, just from a, from a, like a bandwidth standpoint. Yeah, who knows. I honestly have to give them kudos because they were able to shut down a service that we've all had, and end support for a lot of games that are out there and they were able to do that and there was no Back lash, you know, however they did it was the right way to do it in my opinion until this podcast. There was zero backlash Yeah, I mean, it's like it's that that's a big deal and if they if they handled that properly

You got to give them props for that. Yeah, because there's always a contingent of the internet who's like hey I paid 50 bucks 10 years ago That you owe me, you know, I'm I can you get this forever? Well, I paid 50 bucks 10 years ago, you owe me. I wish you get this forever. Well, I think everyone's just excited for new features and the future moving forward. Man, it's hard to complain against new features, man. One of those features is an expanded friend list. They said that I guess they're going to have some announcements regarding what new features will be implementing at E3. You know, it would be cool. I don't know how we do it, but it would be great to get our hands on an Xbox 360

that's been in a warehouse somewhere and has the original Xbox 360 dashboard with the blades. That's gotta be somewhere, right? I think we have something to close it. We so, yeah, we might, actually. Because you talk about that old Halo 2 experience being seen like yesterday year, that 360 experience, that thing sitting on your desk is entirely different Jack

Yeah, then it was when you when it first came out the blade so slow you could probably delete that update, right? No, I think that's like hard-coded it or it's like there's like a chip on the actual motherboard that saves that kind of stuff That's on the newer ones that have on the new ones because I'm the over ones I think you can still delete it because I actually I accidentally downloaded the update to my memory card and was able to delete it that way So you probably still get there. I mean there wasn't even there's really want to fuck up your system I'm sure you find a way there's no party support on that old Xbox blades and everything Geez yeah, it's come a long way no Netflix

Did you see that? Did you see that Twitter? Did you see that? No one uses that. I don't think people really use it. I don't think so either. I think they're going to have to. If they're clearly OK with shutting off services that are getting obsolete, someone's

going to have to make a filter pass through that dashboard at some point and say, OK, we've added in all these other my community stuff and all these other things on this dashboard. We got to go start clearing some of this real estate out. It's getting, it's a little bloated at times, especially like around the arcade experience where you've got like, you've got the, you know, you've got arcade and then you've got the arcade room thing. Right. And then you've got the Hasbro Family Fun Night thing, and which, they're all three separate systems.

And then you also have the like the game the live games System which is the whole other thing as well. I just it's confused You know they have you know the way the system works like when you turn it on you have like you know my Xbox and it shows you like The disc that's in there right now your avatars off to the right you can scroll up to like my videos and my community and all that stuff I wish they would make a my channel where you could pin items that you wanted to do in there Yeah, like I want to pin Netflix. I want to pin what's in the drive and I want to pin my games on demand right now Like the stuff I use most I wanted all pinned in one place for all we know they're totally doing that right now Yeah, did you welcome channel come back? Yes, it did I had to hide it again. What was up?

What's up? I don't know I think it's after the memory stick update like last week or two weeks ago My welcome channel was back and I had to hide it. I was really freaked out by it. Yeah All of a sudden that that channel in the next watch you can hide it It's the last option on the welcome channels to hide it. I didn't even notice I did that years ago I don't have my welcome channel. Yeah, it was weird like if you tried it then you start on my Xbox Which is very convenient? Yeah as opposed to you know now that others doing ads with sound Yeah, I didn't have that sort of. Oh, really? I don't like that.

I think they started doing that at the Super Bowl. The first one I saw was Major Nelson talking about being at the Super Bowl interviewing people. Yeah. And then now I see it more and more. Like, where you just are going over it, it pops up and starts screaming at you. I'm gonna say ads, I mean, just like the promo stuff,

you know, one of those little squares, well, some sort of Yammer A, the little motion things. Hey, is anything bad happening since you dug up the st in your front yard? No, I got it was nauseous this morning. Hey, it ghosts. No, nothing so far. I think I'm I don't want to say I'm in the clear, but Probably something with the hell you guys are talking. Okay, so far. Okay, so Monday morning so far. Okay, so Monday morning came in the office and I was very conveniently paying my electric bill online. Thank you, City of Austin. And I thought I'm going to check my usage and just see what's going on this month, because I don't ever pay attention to that kind of stuff. It's something I've never done and I would never do. And I was looking through my water usage and I used like, I don't know if it's gallons or what the... Yeah, it's gallons or what the the gallons I had used I typically use about

3,500 gallons a month and This month in the month of April I had already racked up 17,000 gallons and I was like You were drinking a lot of water. Yeah, it's like good great, you know I so I ran home walked all around my house crawled up into my crawl space, looked around, couldn't find a leak anywhere, and I called a plumber. And the plumber came out, and he found that the pipe in my front yard at a 45 degree bend had broken, severed. And so he had to dig this four foot by four foot hole in my front yard. And while he was down there, preparing this pipe, next to the fucking broken broken pipe like next to the break was a Prayer card for like I don't know what it was called, but it was like our lady Fatima

Yeah, it was and it was laminated and sitting next to the break and so he handed to me and he goes look at this And I was like wow, that's really weird. I wonder I mean it's got had to have been there for 30 40 years Probably not that much longer because it was it was PVC. I don't know how long they've used it. But, but it was anyway, it was in there for a while. And I took it out and I was like, huh, I took it out to show Griffin because she was out and working somewhere in which came home.

I showed it to her and the plumber filled in the hole and went on his way. And then I was actually talking to Gus and Martha about it at the same time. And they both at the same time said you you put that back Right, I was like why would I put it back and they're both like well now you're gonna die Yep, and Bernie is convinced me that that was there to ward off a demon. Yep And then now that my protection is gone unscrewed. If I'm a demon and there's some kind of ward put in the ground

Keep me off the premises or whatever. I'm gonna make a pipe leak right if that's fine. So the dope so dig it up and get rid of it. Now you've got, I mean there's a straight path from you. You remember how Poltergeist started right? Yeah. You're gonna open your refrigerator and Zool's gonna be in there. And then we dug up one of the bushes in the front here in front of Indian bones? Got rid of the old stuff. Stupid old Indian bones. I told him that that night I thought about going to like the Mexican meat market and buying like a dead skinned goat

and throwing it in his front yard where the hole was, but I didn't want to track wild animals over there. Fucking Gavin aimed me at 3.30 in the morning that night to tell me that he had just woken up from a nightmare and it was so real and vivid he had to tell us about it. And it was he and Griffin and I were in the morning that night to tell me that he had just woken up from a nightmare and it was so real in vivid he had to tell us about it and it was he and Griffin and I were in the house and a demon was trying to get us and he was able to escape to the studio but we couldn't get out of the house in time and that he felt bad terrible because he was safe in the studio we were trapped in there with the monster. Well you know that means the monster is going to attack when Gavin comes

to visit. So don't ever let him come back. You know what that upsets me? Because that is not the story I wrote for him. The story I wrote for him to aim you guys was much more subtle than that. Was it digitally rather? I did. I set that up. I set that up. I figured it was too fun. It was too convenient.

He was just supposed to say not anything about demons or anything. It was just to be a sense of foreboding in your house and he couldn't get out and he felt like there was something just outside his vision that kind of a thing No, you know what a fucking Michael Bay Yeah, Marcy and I were also conspiring what are you our initial reactions? We're genuine but then after that we were conspiring Thanks everybody I was like this close to digging that hole up and burying it again I actually called my mom. Yeah, what I should do Martha started to see me really bad she started aiming me very guilty saying he's calling his mom oh no we went too far they laminated that thing it is

laminated and my because my mom's pretty religious and I thought she'll she'll set me straight my mom cuz what are you stupid I looked up the secrets so I guess like the our lady of Fatima is like supposed to the Virgin Mary appeared in Portugal you know centuries ago and like she told the people she appeared to three secrets the three little girls right and the first secret was talking about demons buried underground yes and how they lived in fire supposedly also after a couple of years after that event occurred, some bishop or priest decided to dig at the exact spot where she appeared and dug up a well.

And apparently the well is still there, providing fresh water. So, demon water. There's not a allegories there. Yeah, that's crazy. Yes, it's all very crazy. Thank you. Keep bringing it.

I had totally forgotten about it until today. Thank you. Well, no, I'm sure there's some supernatural creature that has not forgotten about it. And then in the 50s, the arse dyes is installed a sprinkler system. The plumber dug a four-foot hole. Hey, when Griffon was in the office the other day,

she sent me a link to this. I'm going to try to make you feel better. I'm changing the subject. Thanks, dude. Have you heard about this? HP is selling a 3D printer? That's good. I didn't know there's one in the market yet. Yeah, it just came out. It's a design jet 3D printer that prints objects out of like ABS plastic How how much does it cost? $17,000. Yeah, that's expensive. US

It's like it's like Star Trek, right? It's like the replicator. No, it's like something about the fucking fair or show it with beats that's what it's like. That thing is gonna make little plastic representations of stuff right? And also in a year you can buy one of those things for like 800 bucks. I think those laser carvings you get where like they laser your face into a brick of glass. You see those? Yeah. Yeah, I used to work for a company that made that oh really yeah That's those fucking things man. I had to go God That was like a bayonet my existence was listening to those fucking assholes who made that stuff talk about how the laser shooting and the angles It was it was it was maddening

I hate those things. What's the what you do for the company? Text support. Well, that's it. Well. Yeah, I teased up. Gus tried to get fired pretty much I did try to get fired and they refused to fire they were giving out severance back And just in Gus was doing everything his power to get one and they wouldn't fire I was like the one guy they kept around He was I he was the only IT guy in the whole company buddy And he was This is full of record guys tell us all the funny

Legdedly where he became like almost like a Character in a wizard of osmabewer. He had moved all the cubicles around cuz his whole area was empty and It was he made a fort out of cubicle mega-desk and then set up like web cam When people would approach him. You just shout out. What do you want? It was it was over here for Ben breakfast calm is now. Oh, I was in that entire space by myself. She's we Why do you approach the desk of Gus that place emptied out like they had like hundreds of employees in there and then after I don't know eight months after you work there

It was just Gus and all those desks and we would go on Friday nights because they had this huge TV in their projector. Yeah, projector. We'd go watch DVDs nice. It was awesome It's been a lot of time. They had one of the stupidest networks to ever. They had a line of site infrared connection. Oh shit, that's right. Yeah, it's a laser connection that went from that building over here to the little field building. Imagine, you know, that thing when you walk into a convenience store and you break the beam, that's essentially what it was, but for data. Right. Just had to go line up the beams. It was only like twice. I ever had to line them up. Like one time one of the cameras quit working, it was only like twice I ever had to line them up Like one time one of the cameras quit working so we had to I had to rent a cherry picker And just was to like get permits and do all this stuff

But we just ran it. I was like, yeah, fuck it. Let's just at 4 a.m Just drive it up there put some cones out in the street Yeah, we just put some cones out there and I had to get up in the cherry picker and like it had like a little sight Like on a rifle and I had to like aim it at the other one The other building yeah, so crazy. Did you install it? No, I didn't install that they had to aim at it at the other one. Really? The other building, yeah. That's so crazy. Did you install it? No, I didn't install it. They had a contractor put it up.

What happens when it rains? It was fine. It's just only twice there. I don't know what happened if the building shifted or something happened. They were like out of line so the data wasn't as fast. How did you make a joke about it never raining and awesome? A man, it's been awesome this year. Yeah, it's been pretty crazy.

Yeah. But it's been good. No, great. Absolutely great. Why? it's been pretty crazy. Yeah. But it's been good. No great absolutely great. There's been my garden. My late travel is full right now, which is the first time it's been full like two years. Really? Yeah. Two years? Two point five years. Jack will do it. He looks like he's going to kill someone. No, yeah, the weather has been awesome. After the like we've had like two miserable years, but the weather. The weather. This year. Yeah, you know who likes the goether is bean bears

Bean bear tags They love the goether in Boston Fuck you so Do you think that ending is gonna happen to Matt Stone and tree Parker after their No fucking comment. I'm like getting sucked into that. I don't know. I don't give a fuck. You think it isn't happy to gizmodo with the god damn iPhone?

I kind of hope so. Is it worth the piss off Muslims or Steve Jobs? Which is worse. Gizmodo, man. How are they still in business? They pissed off Microsoft and Microsoft kind of just forgave them the whole halo thing. Yeah, yeah, like screw those guys Yeah, the PES, yeah, yes now Apple I mean come on Did they use them else you were on that stupid network with Gawker and Kotaku? Yeah, they hacked Kotaku or whatever the site right and put up a bunch of

Poor yeah, they put up like goats here something on April I think it was April fools or something like that Yeah, I was a bunch of they did it to to a lot of the Gaukercites. Yeah. Yeah, Gizmodo is, they're like the corporate version to me of the dude we talked about at Pax who walked up and tried to download it and just thumbed his nose while he's doing it. And it's just, I honestly, I don't know why people tolerate them. So I guess stories are coming out now about how the dude did not, the dude who found the

phone did not return it dude who found the phone did not return it to the bar or authorities or anything. No, he walked away with it. He walked away with it and how the guy I guess who lost it was calling the phone constantly and calling the bar constantly and just trying to track it down. Wouldn't you be? Yeah. And how he just refused to acknowledge it.

It was like, guys, birthday too. Yeah. He didn't turn around and sold it for $5,000 to gocker. Wait, okay. We should probably back up and explain everything to him. Okay. As far as we've been able to compile from internet reports. So Gizmodo suddenly had pictures of the new version of the iPhone. The iPhone supposedly for G.S. which looks very cool. Which looks very, very cool. And then the way the story came out was that

Gizmodo got the photos because some guy was at a bar and found his phone in a bar in Northern California. And he just took the phone, then posted his own pictures of it online, figuring it was something new or different or weird. Then Gizmodo purchased it from him for $5,000. They got it and it was dead. It was bricked. It had been bricked over the course of the evening after that guy found in the bar Right and so then this guy sells this brick phone to gizmodo who then takes it and dismantles it. Yeah, literally it literally takes the whole thing apart Takes photos of the circuit boards everything puts it all online Then there's this weird rumor that it's not gizmodo stupid because it's not an iPhone It's a Chinese knockoff and then it turns out it actually is the iPhone and they get a letter from Apple saying they

want their property back. And then there's lots of internet lawyers analyzing the situation, talking about how if you find something in a bar and you know it was left there, that's not a transfer of ownership in any way whatsoever. And if you take something that is clearly lost that is theft and then you sell it and and Gizmodo takes this thing and buys this thing that is under law in California stolen and then they post images of this thing unreleased corporate patented item that is essentially stolen. Yeah and I guess also California has some law called the Uniform Trade Secrets Act which we've also violated by taking the thing apart and posting pictures of. By the way, there will be no links to Gizmodo and the link dump.

Yeah. Why? I fucking hate that site. Yeah, I can't stand those fuckers either. And my personal thing too was that they have a history of being fucking jackasses, complete and utter cuts. Yeah, I was, you know, I was really upset at their Halo 3 unboxing thing and then like the explain that the retraction We're Brian lamb. I guess the retraction was the worst the retraction was the worst part Yes, you know this Halo 3 swag for the Halo 3 launch has got like you know the match cheap helmet this you in a sea duffle bag Now let me set the tone here though, too This is probably two weeks before Halo 3 was on the shelves Everyone was going crazy for Halo 3 going to come out.

Absolutely. I mean, it was everyone's looking forward to that. And Halo has legions of fans, which whether or not you agree with that, it's important to them. And then Gismoto gets sent this awesome army double-edged. That's a great cool stuff in it. And he just like, oh, look at this. It's the game.

It's stupid. Oh, what's this? Dog tags lame. It's kind of like literally throwing it off to the side. He's is. He's literally taking stuff and tossing it over his shoulder. And I guess he got some angry emails about it. So then he issued an apology video where he repacks everything back into the bag and then throws it out of like his multi-story window into the parking lot below. Then looks at the camera and says

mash-cheap dies in the end. Fuck you. Yeah. Oh, I don't know if he says fuck you. But he says something like mash-cheap dies in the end fuck you. Yeah, I don't know if he says fuck you, but he says something like master Chief dies in the I hate fanboys or something like that master Chief dies in the end Yeah, what a great guy and then of course they went to CES with the TV be gone to shut off everyone's TVs Well, they didn't go to CES with the TV be gone a booth at CES gave out TV be guns and which are these little Car remote sized items that when you push the button it goes to all the power codes Of all the universal emotes runs so I'm really fast so that you can turn off TV's pretty much anywhere You can turn off if you're at a bar and there's a sporting event You can be the asshole turns off the TV. Why does anyone want to be that asshole because people are fucking assholes

Every time we do an event like packs or Comic Con I always make it a point to cut out like a little square cardboard Yeah, pain it black and cover the IR receiver on our fucking TV Every time we do an event like PAX or Comic Con, I always make it a point to cut out like a little square cardboard, paint it black, and cover the IR receiver on our fucking TVs. Now you do that, right? Because I know there's gonna be someone with a fucking TV be gone who just wants to screw stuff. But I had never heard of that before this, like that had happened. Like that was not a common thing.

People were saying, why didn't they cover, if people were, if they knew people were gonna do this, why didn't they cover their IR ports, if they're false? No, you're not. Just like the same thing, you don't case your displays in glass because people can come up and punch them and break your fucking displays in the middle of your presentation. So what are these guys, Gismoto? Gismoto is a blog that celebrates the gadget culture. Yes.

They go to CES to consumer electronics show while people are making presentations. People are there to work, by the way. People paid a lot of money to go there and work. And theoretically, fucking Gismoto is there to work by the way people paid a lot of money to go there and work and theoretically Fucking his motor is there to work as well as journalists and they're walking around with the goddamn TV Begons shutting off people's displays which probably took them three days to fucking set up and When a guy's making a presentation about a product is and here's our new product and it comes up But the guy turns off the fucking TV from the audience. They can't figure out what happened They think they're just a player there which happens, you know

You're somebody your somebody your presentation text sometimes technical problems. So they find they figure out, oh the power on the TV's off. That's it. They turn it back on, start over and flip the guy turns it right back off again. God, damn that is fucking unbelievable. And then now they're buying stolen iPhones. And CES, let's them back in the next year too. It's unfuckin believable. So it's crazy. Terrible track record. Yeah, it's crazy. Well maybe they won't get away with it this time.

Well yeah, I mean they could potentially, well who knows? Who knows what will happen? Well I mean they've been all over the news like that. The one, I think they've got like nine million page views and the last couple of days over all this stuff, which is what they wanted. I mean they paid for it basically. No, they're gonna be fine.

Nothing's gonna come of this. No, it'll help them. It'll definitely help them, which is probably the frustrating part. It really is come of this. No, it'll help them. It'll definitely help them Which is probably the frustrating part. It really is like you just don't just be an asshole. That's the that's the that's the bottom line Like that. Be an asshole if you'll be fine with it. If you want to celebrate the gadget culture, there are other sites go to him gadget Yeah, in gadget. It won't matter. It won't matter. I don't think it'll matter. I don't think anything anything will happen when it gives Moto as a result of this. I just you know, let's just hope that you know they continue to work at that company for the rest of the lives because I can't imagine somebody like Brian Lamb walking into an

actual legitimate journalistic entity anywhere in the world and they're like oh yeah we never want to hire this fucking guy. I'm blabble. I love it everyone got everyone got a little gust in the podcast. Did you, I was showing Bernie this the other day. I don't know if I showed this to you, Jeff, you might have been out. Did you see the story that came out that CBS News broke that if almost every digital photo copier built since 2002 as a hard drive in it? Bernie fucking told me dude. That was just told me and I told you. Yeah. Yeah. That is not cool. So I guess, you know, if you think of a copier, you know, any digital copier that you've ever used has a hard drive and stores an image of every single thing it's ever copied.

Jesus. So CBS News went to this warehouse in, I guess I think it was in New Jersey that sold used copiers, bought three copiers totally at random. One was from the Buffalo, New York sex crimes division of the police department. One was from the Buffalo narcotics division of the Police Department and one was from a hospital. So they opened them up and they said like in an hour, took the hard drives out and dumped every copy they'd ever made. They included like warrants, personal medical information, addresses of sex offenders, you know, everything. God damn.

Oh, locations that the police were sticking out for narcotics busts It's fucking terrible. That's horrible Just think of how many times have you digitally copied something not only you how many times it's anyone years? Yeah, I copy the job of a bank. Yeah, how many times do you copy your driver's license such security card for stuff? Jesus, yeah, thanks a huge deal for that. Yeah, so now I want to open up our copy You know, we just have like a little brother all in one copy. I wonder if it has a hard drive in it. Yeah, all the ones they were showing look like major, you know, Xerox installations like $5,000 copiers.

We have like a little $300 office depot thing. Yeah, a little toner vending machine. Yeah, that's what I was wondering. When you were talking about the 3D printer from HP, what do you think the cartridges on that phone? I think yeah, the printer's $ was wondering. When you were talking about the 3D printer from HP, what do you think the cartridge is on that phone? I think, yeah, the printer's $17,000 and you can print probably one little army man in it. And then after that, you gotta pay $35,000, a cartridge for the molten plastic or whatever that they use in it.

Oh, you want gray? Oh, you need an old one. You can get upgrade. Pretty soon there'll be companies that sell cheap, not enough, like they'll refill your plastic cartridge for you Oh, wait if that cop your stores like a little a little version of anything you've ever made inside of it Like not on a hard drive it stores like a little replica of it how do those toner stores stay in business

Toner stores. Yeah, do you know that they once? Like there's one on Lamar that I drive by all the time when I take When they sell toner where they sell toner they sell sell like knock off toner and or inkjet stuff. Really? Yeah. You never see them. There's one in South Park Meadows. There's one on North. There's one like you know where the Starbucks and like Panda Express are at Lamar in 38. Yeah. There's one right there. Good Squattaloupe right? Or Guadalupe. Yes. I yeah. There's one right there. So we did a really funny

analysis when people were bitching about $3, gallon gas or $4 gallon gas. And they broke down everything else we used in our life by the gallon and how much it costs. And it was so funny, because I think inkjet ink was something like $10,000 a gallon, when it came down to it. And I think number two on the list with mouthwash. Like you pay $18 a gallon for mouthwash. Jesus Christ. I've looked that up. Yeah

Inkjet ink can cost up to $8,000 per gallon. $8,000 gallon. That's the ad here. God, it's fucking crazy. What's up? Well, it's on that list, you see? I'm glad just loading it. We had milk on there, you know, that gas was about as much as milk was at that point Because that's something else you buy the gallon But then they were taking at things you don't normally buy by the gallon and how ridiculous they were. Have you seen the tower of Oreo? No. Someone took an entire box full of Oreos and made it into one.

What does that mean? He means they took the white stuff out of it. Go to the daily what? The daily what? Yes. They took calm. They just took all the white stuff and made it in like one tall Oreo book ended with Oreos oh that's gross yeah looks terrible oh look the daily one pictures of the

new iPhone well that looks awesome that's not really awesome dude that's lard yeah that's the thing that you eat like if you look at that that looks disgusting you you eat that over the course of a few days and you eat it mega more it makes you think of the round rock doughnuts how you can get that one giant donut that's made out of the dough for a dozen yeah like they had on man versus food I've never really been a big fan of round rock donuts but they've never really done it for me either I really want to try that big donut let's do it sometime I like a we live near round rock I like that place over on the airport you guys

did it I'm a fucking amazing you did it we did it we amazing. You did it. We did it. We did it talking about We did it talking about the grocery store earlier. Oh, yeah, uh, Mrs. Johnson's It's not so stuff like I don't even I don't even catch it when you do it I think how does it happen unbelievable speaking of that Gus and I went away Vietnamese sandwich shop the other day that was pretty good Yeah, Lulubies Lulubies Vietnamese say I had those I had those Korean tacos that you guys were talking about. It was fucking terrible. Yeah, that place is a mixed bag. Yeah, I've had great experiences and I've had bad experiences there. So, yeah, I'm racist.

So, why? We are recording a little later than normally, maybe with five or one, a little hungry. You're going to happen to be the big shirt that I wore. That's the one I saw. If you choose that, that's a poor read. That is horrid. I showed you right Yeah, I don't I don't want to see like Why is it on your thing? No, because Bernie was looking at the wrong side. He's gonna jack off looking at it later

It's his wallpaper Oh, really? I did go while we're talking about places that we eat locally though, I'm gonna throw a one in there for the hell of it. Why not? There's a place, and I can get pictures for dust to link up. Or a picture, I mean. There's a place called Gordos, which is right across

street from a Mexican food restaurant where we go to eat. But we would never stop at this place Gordos because it's a donut dessert place. Got everyone in to go there for a long time. I hear it's great. And by the time we walk out of Mottis, we are usually just filled with molten cheese and corn tortillas and good news. Yeah, it's a lot of us. That place is awesome. And then we go to go to go to go to go to go to do's.

But anyway, I went to go to do with flash with Aaron the other day and the stuff on that menu is insane. Like they have a chicken donut. Yep, and he says like chicken and waffles is what it tastes like, but the best chicken and waffles you'll ever eat. Let's read different lunches. Kind of that a loss. I'll send you the list of the menu and it's just ridiculous. Did you do you eat one? I did. What do you have? I had a chocolate pudding donut. So it's just like a donut with chocolate pudding inside of it. Essentially, yeah. That sounds really good was it was incredible. It was incredible They have one called porkies, which is Canadian bacon cream cheese and jalapeno jelly. Oh fuck dude really

Yeah, they do not mess around. Do you say you had the pudding one Bernie? I had the pudding one Yeah, the cream filled cream cheese icing bananas and vanilla wafers dude. I can see you getting fatter reading the menu Gus god I'm so hungry. Cherry bomb. Cherry bomb. Cherry bomb's glazed cherry topt holes, cinnamon, sugar, and cake mix topping. Oh man.

This is a slow burn, which is habanero pepper jelly inside with cream cheese topping. Oh, I would definitely think. And the thing is, they cook them all right there. Like, you have to wait 20 minutes for your donut. Right. As it is big, it's like a meal. What's a donut? I don't think it's like a bigger donut.

Yeah, it's just, it's, yeah. I mean, I couldn't finish the whole thing. What does that tell you? Wow. I was trying to show a little bit of discretion. So what did you say it is? It's like right across from the Maldives. It's one of those trailers. It's behind the the oil place right there. They make a donut filled with PB&J. Oh, that's what how does that not good, right? It's great jelly and peanut butter and it has a peanut butter icing on it. Are you crazy? Yeah, that's... Come on. You're crazy because you're sitting here not eating it. And I'm sure they don't have it on the menu Jeff, but I'm sure you can get an alcoholic one. Something like maybe 80 proof donuts. They make a dirty out the doughnut with fudge icing and grilled strawberries. What is that?

Real strawberries? That sounds brilliant. I never thought to grill the strawberry. I want to do that today That sounds kind of that sounds like one of the things on the internet sex list I gave her a grilled strawberry I got that you're gonna say gave her dirty berry There's so many good places to eat that we still have been. We didn't make start making a list and we need to like once a week like lunch Bunch it. Yeah, we got to What we kind of did I mean we did the We did that your mom's burgers the other day and then last week we did little bees

Well, here's something. I maybe go to Gordos this week. Yeah, let's do it man. We need lunch at Gordos We came today the funky monkey Joe Joe Joe, Jeff, I'm sorry, I'm salivating while I'm talking here. The funky monkey has grilled bananas, cream cheese icing, and brown sugar. Wow. That sounds great. That sounds great. You can do anything, apparently. Apparently you can. I'm just going to go grill my fridge. I'm going to grill Oreos. I'm like, oh, I'm tonight. Oh, man. That's so good. So good. We got to be places we have to eat in downtown Austin before we move out of downtown. No, that's sad. What about Avatar and DVD? Anybody excited about that? Nope. Yeah, I don't know.

You know Avatar is still in theaters. Yeah. Right now you can go see Avatar. It's up to $745 million I think. I want to talk about something. I did. Something pretty cool that I don't know what most people know about. Did we talk last time about the D-Box movie theater? Here, I don't know. We haven't talked about it. Okay, so there's this thing Austin that I have never heard of anywhere before and It's a service called D-Box in cinemas where it's a couple rows of seats and you have to reserve the seat and they activate it when you buy a ticket and it's full motion control along with the movie seats. Where do you go to do that? I went to the galaxy island. I went to the galaxy island and I went to go see Clash of the Titans which by the way is not a kids movie. So we had to leave, but they have a cool experience at least for the first part of it where when they showed the water and you feel like your your seats rippling like you're in the waves.

What the fuck? And when somebody like comes up, you know those moments in movies where like somebody opens the refrigerator door and they're looking in the fridge and they shut the refrigerator and someone's always standing right there behind the refrigerator door. They have like that kind of moment that normally would not have the effect on me that it did, but the eat like suddenly jerks when it happens. So it's like you have that feeling. Well, whatever, but it was flashed. I told me about it as well. And so I thought I'm gonna check this out to see if it's worth it. But apparently every movie that comes out, they include a D-Box

channel along with the soundtrack and it has the they have people that they're paid its studios to make these movements for the D-Box Church. Yeah, they're now free-treen clash with the Titans It says coming soon Prince of Persia does it cost more? It was 20 bucks a seat, but it was worth it, right? It was pretty cool. It looks like there's 18 theaters in North America that support it and one in Japan. So can you get a You do like 3d debauch Yeah, it was 3d 2. So I I felt like I have this whole apparatus this whole apparatus that's fucking I was like Iron Man going into battle

I I'm strapped into my sea all this other stuff and I'm just to watch clash of the Titans shitty clash of the Titans by the way Yeah, that's too bad. Yeah, well, that's I'm gonna check that out. That's really cool There's also a lot of those lines. There's another service. They have like they have like ultra HD theaters now, too Yeah, it's one of the XD. YeahD yeah, it's up north at Flugerville like I guess real regal cinema does that but there's so many of the movies you want to see that go on iMacs anyway that doesn't appeal to me yeah like I want to see iMacs and fucking flash he I'm gonna kill him because we were talking about this he was

you know touting this service that's up in round rock which is north of Austin where they have this ultra HD movies is slightly small than iMac screen and i said i want to tell you guys this i said well i just go see the iMacs if that's case and he says to me this son of a bitch he says i can't go see movies at the iMacs anymore because if you look towards the top left corner of our iMacs theater there's a big stain on the screen um like a big stain on the screen Like a water stain or something and I don't know why they haven't removed it yet and now that I've noticed it every time I go to movies the iMacs

I can't say this I Am I You dickhead I go why did you tell me that and I go now? I know I'm gonna go back and I'm X and I'm gonna see that fucking state up there and I'm not gonna I'm gonna see it I'm gonna walk out like five minutes into a movie like I I don't even know what's happening cuz I'm staring at a fire I ruined it your fire. Oh fuck you're all fucked with me It's like what an asshole points at a dead pixel on your monitor to you. Yep. Yeah, god damn it

You don't see anything but that fucking red pixel for the rest of your life. Yeah But you know you should go see you should go see guys and you should go see because it make you smarter Jeff Okay, you should go see Hubble 3D and I'm I really want to see that except I can't see it because there is a fucking water stain on They show that they show an X HD it looks like a nebula though. I haven't been back since he said it to me I'm in the same boat you are guys, you know when we I had a really cool experience when we did the Alamo event for, uh, you know, the season eight premiere Uh, I got to go up into the projection booth at the Alamo in South of Mar and uh, and see the 4k projectors and like interface with them and try to like get our hard drives working and all the projection that stuff's really cool It's fun, right? That stuff's fucking awesome. It's fun. It's just like this giant box with a USB port and a power port and a huge light Yeah, and a huge light and like this little touchscreen, it looks like a home,

like a fancy home theater remote. You're like, import my movie, please. Yeah, that's awesome. That is awesome. That's really cool. Do you take any pics? No, no, I felt weird. Yeah, yeah.

You're doing that. But it was really cool up there. You have to walk through the kitchen at the Alamo Southamar to get up to the projection room. There's like a line. There's like a line that says like only projection is from this point or whatever and it's like you to cross that is pretty cool and I saw that on the stairs going up to the projection room they had a uh you know a movie in the case right there and I looked at it it was good burger

good burger good burger awesome key thing kill that's awesome and I would think two of Gus whipped out his camera in the projectionist booth you'd hope that the projectionist would just knock him out. Yeah, he's probably trained with the fucker Well, it does like an incase of idiot break glass. Yeah, there were like signs over there was like no liquids past this point And of course the projection is got like a giant glass of water Did you have to put it right by the side? You just have to put on like a clean suit or anything? No, no, no good That was really cool. Yeah, like a dealer in blackjack like Letting my hands get out of here. I mean pretty soon movies are gonna be I No, no, no. Good. That was really cool. You're like a dealer in Blackjack, like letting me in.

Get out of here. I mean, pretty soon movies are gonna be, I mean, if you look at the memory sticks we have, you could probably fit a theatrical movie on a memory stick, or at least a small hard drive. Yeah, he showed me Alice in Wonderland 3D. It was a hard drive. And it was like a case on it.

Like you see like server hard drives, you know, with the, you know, the sliding rails and stuff. It's like, oh, I hear it is Alice in Wonderland. It had like a USB, it was like you see like server hard drives, you know, with the, you know, the sliding rails and stuff, it's like, oh, I hear it is. It's not under last. It had like a USB. It was like, and then the back of the attachment had like a USB port. It's like, there it is. I read recently that the NSA has developed a method by which they can detect storage devices for security of places.

Wow. Do you remember the old NSA tempest project? No, what is that? It was a project. I don't know if anyone ever fully proved that it existed. But remember how, you know, nowadays monitors are all flat panels. But it used to be monitors worth CRTs. And essentially, you know, it's the way a CRT works is there's an electron gun in the back

that shoots electrons at the screen and the screen catches them and displays what you're seeing. Well, the screen doesn't stop the electrons. The electrons keep going. You know, they go past you. So Tempest was a project that supposedly existed where they could park a van filled with equipment and then reassemble all those electrons for all the CRTs in like a one-block area and see everyone's screen. Wow. That's a true lifestyle, man. Pretty cool. That's like going to be the state. Yeah. That's crazy. You know, I was thinking about this with the guy, I'm P guy impacts to who was taking the games you get a lot of publicity Wasn't the game again breach? Yeah, breach That's a cool look at that game to get all the public in the world for the head to go through

But you know me interesting device, which I don't think I've ever seen before Gus and you credit me from wrong is RG 45 storage where you had a storage device that you put into an RG 45 port Hmm, so then essentially you're using I know USB 2.0 might be faster than... No. No it's not, right? So what if you had RG45 on a laptop, I've got a RG45 port that I really never use. Ever, ever. Why don't I have a little storage device?

I guess power is the main issue. Yeah. You can't send a lot of power over RG45. There is a power over Ethernet spec, but I don't think network ports Like on a laptop. I don't know that's a great give it. Yeah, give away the power There you go. See if you could have a little battery in it It'd be fast and you know, it's people might block us be ports on something be nice little spider-vice You know people won't think about that RG 45 hanging there. It's probably been in existence for like 30 years

It doesn't really there would be a thing like, I would even need a port. Like I just set something on a computer and it would pull all the data magnetically from the hard drive. I've ever seen, I've seen similar things, but have you ever seen, I know there's a USB storage device you can buy that looks like a broken,

like a freight USB cable? Yes. It looks like this end right here, like this is your device. And then like right here, if you imagine, like this is freight, like you got yanked off off and cut off and all the storage is actually open here Ha, that's crazy. That's kind of cool. It's not to me though I understand what the thing is like it's

So see a device that doesn't look like a USB device But honestly wouldn't a mouse be more fitting for that? It's a USB storage device, but it looks like a mouse Because you don't have a bunch of broken cords hang on computer. Nobody does. It's going to stand out even more. Or like those little USB, the mice now come with this, with the wireless mice where they need their own USB dongle. But the dongle is flush with the end of the USB port.

It only sticks out like maybe an eighth of an inch, or possibly a quarter of an inch away from the actual laptop itself super low profile Huh, and like something like that that was storage that doesn't stand out to me. That's that's more interesting Yeah, I'll be a little too small like they need space for the storage stuff Yeah, or they can transmit it. Why are listen? That's you better. You just walk up put that in a machine and then you have access to the machine through USB Spiced off done done. I've seen the security in the OS that you can't access the vice to the USB port. Why not?

Right? Could you? Yeah, I don't know. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to. Look at us, dude. We're bringing down the government right here in the hot cast. All those great ideas. Let's go bring down some lunch. All right, let's do it. All right. Well, thanks for listening.
