You think so? Yeah, that is a perfect name. Yeah, but is it the name of the the old manager for the San Francisco Giants?
Was it a Dusty Baker? Yeah, was his name? Is this guy leading a double life?
It's like he's managing baseball teams and playing these blues music for the opening of podcast

What's that?
What being a baseball manager on the show?

We're doing a podcast. Yeah, I think
If we're I don't know where everyone is. There's no one in the building right now
I can't see this has been the weirdest week of all time for me. Why do you say that because?
No one has been here and I've been doing all of you fuckers jobs the entire week.
And now I'm gonna take a break.
In fact, I'm not even gonna finish this podcast.
I'm gonna go in silent right now.
You guys go ahead and do it.
There you go.

He's around sometimes.
Who knows.
Joel's gone.
And Bernie's been gone.
You guys been gone forever.
Yeah, it's been a long trip of all time.
We were, we almost became New Zealand citizens.
There was a strike. Like there's a worker strike.
And not a, we're working at all.
From the airline. Sorry, yeah. A worker's a strike for the airline.
And they, they just shut it down. They shut off.
They shut off the airline.
And we thought we were going to be there forever
That's not a bad place to be stranded. No, it's not. It's a beautiful country. It is
So tell us about your exciting adventures in New Zealand. I feel like I should wait for Jeff
Sorry, I should wait for a Bernie and Joel
Because there's another version of every story I have to tell
Well, I'll talk about London. Okay, and then I'm gonna take London like that
So we'll have a little bit of it. That's a little bit of a teaser for next week talking about New Zealand and Australia
They'll pronounce for this week. We'll talk about my exciting adventure in London. Yay
It was the event wasn't in
It was MCM Expo. It's not in London, really.
It's like way out to the east, like the suburbs.
It was like an hour and a half cab ride
from Heathrow to get there.
And it was like this new area they called Doclands.
And there was nothing out there.
That sounds so bad.
It was like, it was like, bad already.
Why would you name, like if you're gonna name like a new city,
you want it to be like, awesome town.
You're gonna name it Doclands.
It used to be like the industrial docs.
So it's like an old warehouse slash industrial area
that they've converted to be like
resident in Hong Kong.
Why?
Why name it that?
That just sounds bad.
This sounds like, you know, Smellyville, US,
US, Nellyville, UK, or Stinkton.
Stinkton.
Lynchburg, Virginia.
That's a real town.
Yeah, that's not a good name either.
No.
It's a different place over there.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
It's a different place over there. But so, I mean, a good name either. No. It's a nickel. All right. I care as much of it as I'm in there.
But so, I mean, the event was great.
The event was fine.
It got to meet a lot of cool people, but our merchandise
never showed up.
So I didn't have anything to do all day sitting in the booth.
Could they not find Stinkton?
Stinkton was on the mountain.
Stinkton was on the mountain.
Stinkton was on the mountain.
So we sat in an empty booth.
So all we did, all we can long was just talk to people who came by the booth and explain why we didn't get our stuff.
I can't imagine like after the fourth hour it's like hey, where's your stuff? I'm not gonna tell you I told the last guy! Get out of here!
Like, he sold out. So people assumed that on Sunday when they hear like, oh, you sell out of stuff? Like, no, I wish.
But like, I don't understand like there's some people who were like, Would be like you know they would walk up and I'd say oh I'm sorry
Our stuff didn't clear customs and there's supposed to be oh what happened?
I bet this is person a fucking customs lawyer like
You do have to wonder what's going on inside customs, you know like all the stuff that comes through there every day
Do they get like DBS and t-shirts and go okay?
This is serious
We got to pay attention now before we were letting drugs come in and out
and all kind of crazy shit, but DBS and T-shirts,
you know, not allowed to have-
Stop the presses.
Stop the presses, you know.
Yeah.
So we spent long, long hours in the booth not doing anything.
Just talking to people.
And it was good, I think a lot of picture came out of that.
I don't know, I don't know.
That must be difficult though,
because you don't like talking to people.
No, I don't.
It was really awkward. Lots of hugs, I don't like that either. But there were a lot more pictures. Yeah, there must be difficult because you don't like talking to people. No, I don't. It was really awkward. Lots of hugs. I don't like that either.
But there were a lot more people dressed up than I thought there would be. Like I feel like Ben and Gavin. Ben with dresses, Gavin, Gavin was just Ben.
There was more touching on my last trip than any of the previous trips, like more hugs. And it was just you and Joel, which is the hot thing. Is this where they down under hood? I had to
modify the way out of my kangaroo path. Joel, Joel actually
got mad. I had to modify the way we take pictures together.
Why? Why? Why? Why? I want to hear this. The whole
two hands, like one hand on each shoulder thing, totally
not cool. What do you mean? You mean he's behind you doing like the fake massage? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no behind you doing the fake massage? No, no, no, no.
What if I'm holding a picture?
Because everybody has to cramp in and just kind of resting
your hands.
Oh, you know, I'm just going to come in behind you.
I'll put my hands right here.
We're best friends.
Not OK.
You're not best friends.
Not best friends.
That's what you learn.
Like doggy paws on you.
I'm trying to envision this.
What was this?
What was it like this?
Like, I'm like, no, no, no.
This is like, all right.
So you have to be, you have to demonstrate on that okay, okay, no show us where you touch
No, no, this is this is going poorly already. No
Okay, yeah, that's not appropriate
I think we have to do that one more time so I can take a picture for the link. Oh
Yeah, okay, that's totally going to the link. Yeah, that way people
That's an inappropriate that's inappropriate
issues, you know people have to lean over the table.
And, you know, everybody has to kind of like
mash-in together to be able to get a photo.
So, you just gotta do what you can to consolidate.
But that's not okay.
And then also, just having the one hand is okay.
The first time, but over the course of the day,
it gets like imprinted into Joel's bones.
The weight, apparently. So, it's just. The weight, apparently.
So it's just modifying technique.
Well, luckily, since we didn't have any merchandise,
we like situated our tables so that people could just walk around back.
And I wasn't concerned about anyone taking any things.
Oh, because we didn't have shit.
So it was like pretty cool.
Yeah, come on in.
And pre-formed convention then.
Yeah.
But yeah, there were a lot of hugs, which was okay, except for the ones where like,
you know, it's a convention hall, it it's hot there's a lot of people so eventually
you know you might start smelling bad at the end of the day but if you smell bad at 8 a.m
that's a bad start. I know what you're saying for that.
Yeah this was our first convention in the UK right? Yeah. Did you notice things about it that
were different or unusual versus conventions in the states? It seems like the ones we've done
in Australia and New Zealand you know they're slightly different but States. It seems like the ones we've done in Australia and New Zealand,
you know, they're slightly different,
but they're very similar to the ones we do in the States.
Yeah, they, I felt like the entire hall
was like an artist alley kind of thing,
but they were just like long tables,
and they were very few booths.
They were, you know,
but was it, was a professional like setups
and people attending in this, in this in this long tables or that was it really
like an artist's alley.
It was like an artist's alley meets anime stores.
Anime, okay.
Like dolls and DVDs and shit like that.
And people like selling their own comics and stuff.
Okay.
But yeah, there were booths that were big.
There was a large video game presence.
Like there was, what was there? Like Batman Arkham City was there, but that game there were booths that were big and there was a large video game presence like there was
What was there like Batman Arkham City was there, but that game had just come out St. Louis III
Well, since you hit that new hitman game
Oh, I don't know what was going on. We were right by the St. Louis III booth and you know It's like a mature game. So they had the entire booth walled off
Like I guess like they check your ID at the entrance then go in and play the game or whatever, and then you walk out the other side. But you can't actually see
anything in there because it's a mature game. There might be underage people in attendance.
And one morning, I was sitting at our booth and I looked over at the St. Throw booth and
I could kind of see into it, like through the exit.
Is there like black curtains around, blocking it off?
No, it's like this wall. Like they built a room inside.
The way you're describing like peeking into it
reminds me of like when I'm 12
and visiting New Orleans for the first time
and trying to peek into, you know.
Well, which way do you hear what I saw?
Yeah, okay, okay, okay.
So I look over and all the employees are guessing
or having like their morning briefing,
they're like all circled around, they're talking.
And one of them is standing in like the circle
and he's got like a four foot long purple dildo in his hands. That's attached to a stick.
And he's like waving it at people like like giving people job assignments to tell them
what to do. And he's like, dildos like slapping them in the face. I was like, what the fuck
is going on in there? Like I'll never feel bad about our work environment here at this
company. Like at least there's not someone with a four foot dildo on a stick slapping
me in the face. No, we would only use a five foot dildo in this company. Like, at least there's not someone with a four-foot dildo on a stick slapping me in the face.
No, we would only use a five-foot dildo in this day.
I think we all know that.
God, I hope it was out of the box, man.
Hopefully it wasn't used or anything.
Yeah, and there was a, the signing area was behind us.
Like, there was a wall behind us and like,
all the signing area, like all the celebrities in quotes,
were over there
Charging a 15 pounds for autographs or 15 pounds for pictures. I didn't recognize any of those people
I don't know they all from like doctor who are some crazy British. Not even I think it was like C class
Even for there had to be there to be some some guys over there that been was like that's the best show on television
The the people from the actors you're friend. The actors from Teen Wolf were there.
Oh, there's a Teen Wolf TV show.
Yes, and he was very excited about that.
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, I think those are the biggest names there.
There's a bunch of people I didn't recognize, but a bunch of really hot women.
Well, that's good.
Yeah.
We're just TV, I guess.
So they know about the Dildo?
I don't know.
Why they were there, man.
But did you get to see any of London, or did you go hang out
with Ben and Gab in any other places they like to go?
No, neither of them are from London.
So they didn't really know what was going on either.
And to get to the city itself from where we were,
was like a 40-minute ride on the tube.
On the tube, yeah.
But the tube didn't even go all the way out to where we were.
Like they had a special second railroad that went just to this area. What did they call
the other second railroad? The DLR, the Docklands Light Rail. The tube is a railroad.
The tube is like their subway. Oh, okay. I was expecting to have like all their transportation
has dirty names. Because the tube just sounds, I just sound filthy, you know.
And all the DLR trains are kind of cool
because they don't have drivers in them.
So it's like the airport shuttle, like DFW,
where you just get in and you don't know,
like it just goes on its own.
So it's like the car from a total recall.
Yeah, or a minority report also, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Gav said that when he took the DLR in,
he sat at the front and pretended like he was the conductor,
like he was driving the train.
Ha, ha, ha.
Ha, ha.
Oh.
Well, yeah, it was weird.
That venue is going to be one of the Olympic venues in 2012.
Oh, really?
Yeah, so they had a little London 2012 pop-up shop in there.
Oh, god, I've never mentioned something else.
So there was the weirdest mix of people
ever at this event.
Normally, you know, you go to a convention and it's like the whole convention hall is whatever your nerd event is.
At this one, there was like our event was going on, but there was also a
Britain and Ireland's next top model event going on at the same time.
So that's where all the good looking girls came from.
Yeah, so it was weird. Like you'd be walking, you know, you'd be sitting out in the hall and people would be walking to the different events.
And at first, like before New Day event was going on,
I was like, man, it looks like there's a lot of models here.
It's a lot of really good looking women.
And then you'd see the people going to the MCM.
And it was weird.
You could easily tell who was going where.
But you saw like crossover interaction a lot.
Like when the people go into the next top model thing,
I guess we're really interested in some of the costumes,
in some of the way that the other attendees were dressed.
And I could see them approaching them
and like talking to them and like holding the fabric
and asking questions about how they made their costume.
It was kind of cool.
When we went to the last convention in Sydney,
there was like a UFC thing going on
or like ultimate fighting championship,
there was a big portion of the event.
That was that.
And then
it's mostly like, you know, the typical nerd events, which aren't really like muscle bound guys looking to punch each other's faces in the most part. And I keep thinking at some point,
you know, there's going to be like be some kind of brawl that breaks out where like, you know,
somebody with a lightsaber replica accidentally pokes a USG guy in the eye and then just
like it's gonna be bullshit everywhere but thankfully that did not happen
in a melvin
melvin
can you get your back in front of you correctly
no that's good no
no pronouncing incorrectly that's not the American way
well I guess that's true
I did the introduction in the panel and I heard right before then that it was
pronounced a different way so I was just sitting in the quarter being like melvin, Melvin, Melvin, Melvin, Melvin, Melvin.
Did you, did you crush your mind that maybe they were fucking with you?
No, no.
So it's funny, like the convention hall, the other convention was a, you know, white collar, power point presentation type group.
And it was really weird seeing them pass by and always do double takes
like everybody in costume. I figured like if you've never seen any of that and
you're away on a corporate retreat that must be the weirdest shit ever.
I'd probably be entertaining though at the same time. Get a break from all the
corporates. Yeah they're probably used to seeing people in suits and...
But would you be mad if you're organizing the event? You're like you didn't tell me
this is gonna be here? Like Like, it's definitely a distraction.
I might take away.
I remember when we were at Comic Con.
I'm one of those giant hotels
that's right next to the convention center
and there was this elderly couple
that was walking around that looked fucking terrified.
And there was all,
because everybody in costumes running around screaming
and just like so much chaos.
And you know you can't get one of those hotel rooms unless
You book it way way way in advance. Yeah, so I'm sure they booked it a year in advance or something had no idea that
This comic on thing was gonna be happening at the same time in the same place and they must have thought they get dropped on an alien planet
Yeah, you know, just in a ration got for it there. Yeah, so both of you guys have been else jelly right? Yeah, yeah
What do hoodlums look like?
Because I saw a group and they look like they're up to no good. And I
didn't know though. Like, I, I realized like, you don't know what people to stay
away from. Did they look like they look like Carey's friends? No, no, no, they
look, they, they look a little bit more or less 16. They're wearing, they're
wearing torn Kylie Minogue shirts
and throwing meat pies.
I guess, I don't know.
Well, what would have been the same as that?
I have no idea.
Look like soccer hooligans.
There you go.
Oh, no, that's England, isn't it?
That's England, you're a football.
Can we call them soccer hooligans?
So it's called football hooligans to be taken to the universe.
Do you know the color of American football?
They're gridiron?
Gridiron, I love that.
They're way better. Yeah, I wish that we called it gridiron I like that that sounds way more hardcore
and what Sun and I gridiron yeah I'm down yeah that's an awesome name let's do it let's start it I
wonder if like the NFL or like the Americans came up with that term to try to market it overseas
or if they came up with that term on their own because if they came up with that term on their own. Because if they came up with that term on their own, we, I think we should have
put like a management change here.
Obviously doing it wrong.
We are going to the name gridiron is a fucking genius.
They get a promotion.
So did you watch, did you watch any sports?
Any Australian like cricket or anything like that?
No, I tried watching Australian rugby.
It was just confusing.
It's funny. We got white rugby or Aussie rules football
As he was football. Okay. We got to I still know the difference
The difference yeah, okay. There's a key difference the key difference is
People understand the rules for rugby people just get drunk and cheer at Aussie rules football
But isn't it now called Aussie rules? Good. I
So when I was when I was there I couldn't figure out any of the sports. And actually, I wanted to figure out the sports. I thought it seemed
cool, interesting. There was this one restaurant down the street from where we were staying, and
we would go there kind of like, you know, for lunch a lot of the time. And I went in one
day and was watching a cricket game on TV. And I was like, oh, this is cool. And it's
like trying to pay attention, trying to follow it. It's kind of hard
But you know you get a little bit of what's going on and I went back the next day
Around the same time and it's like oh this is a good game as well
Is this the same game I was watching yesterday? Is it so rerun and I was asking somebody
It's like no, they just like they play one game. Yeah, like four days
It was like three or four days. Yeah, it was like and it looked exactly the same thing I had seen yesterday
It was just they were still continuing in the same game they had from before yeah, the games last a long time
Do they could change clothes? See their families it almost sounds like a prison
You must take a ball with stick
So did you you said you saw some Aussie real football? Yeah, I had no idea what was going on. And how like out of the loop, I
am or we I guess we were, we had no idea that we got to New Zealand and
we're like, oh, let's go to the rotating restaurant, you know, in
the Oakland, yeah. And so we get there and we're trying to make
reservations, we can't, we can't park or like what's going on. It
turns out, New Zealand just won the World Cup
and the day before.
Oh, right.
And so they were having a giant parade
and we had no clue the all blacks.
Yeah, the all blacks.
That's pretty cool.
Which is, uh, they have a mascot, yellow mascot,
with dreadlocks.
She feels really uncomfortable.
The whole thing, the whole situation.
The team name was all on the...
Every, it's all, it's, yeah, that's like the old... It's like the old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old old Really uncomfortable the whole the whole thing the whole situation The team name was
With a dreadlock mascot. It's just I don't know his
Context
Really weird. I ate at the rotating restaurant last time was in Auckland
So what were you staying was the event near that rotating restaurant or was it somewhere else? No, it was nowhere near there. It was
event near that rotating restaurant or was it somewhere else? No, it was nowhere near there. It was down by the racetrack close to it. It didn't really
feel so much like a convention center as a playground.
Okay. Or a fairground.
Yeah, when I went, the event was right there like two blocks from that rotating restaurant.
There's a little convention center there and that's where we had it. So that's why I
was giving you suggestions on stuff to do. It was nowhere near where you were I guess.
It was all in that area right there.
No, but it was near the casino, which I got to know
when I was losing money.
How much did you lose?
Well, first I went up.
I went about 200 bucks.
I was like, this is an American money or New Zealand money.
This is, yeah, New Zealand money.
I'm not like, what's the exchange rate, you know?
I think it's 80%.
What's the exchange rate, you know? I think it's 80%.
I got $200 New Zealand for $160 American.
Okay.
So I went in with $150, I turned that into like $350,
and I was like, this is so awesome.
I took money and I made that more money.
What were you playing?
I was playing Relent.
Okay.
So then I went back the next day and I was like,
I'm gonna make this even more money and I lost it all
I lost it all everything. Well gone man. We're just betting like on red or black or yeah
I was doing a red or black as a safety it was like you know 49% chance and then betting on the thirds
Yeah, cuz that's still relatively okay odds and a pretty good payout and it worked for a while
And then I would do something where I'd like all right. I'm just put it all on not put all I'm gonna put a whole shit load Is that still relatively okay odds and a pretty good payout and it worked for a while.
And then I would do something where I'd like, all right, I'm just gonna put it all on,
I'm not gonna put all, I'm gonna put a whole shit load on just this one bet.
Because like odds are, I'll probably be okay.
So much did you lose?
About 150 bucks.
I'm gonna be feeling it.
I'm gonna be feeling it.
Yeah, okay.
That's not too cool.
That's like, it's not, but once you win a lot and it's all gone, man. Yeah, that feeling of
Failure. Have you ever gone to Vegas Kara? No, I have not. I would love to go
But I've been to one casino. I went to the one up in Oklahoma. There's a casino in Oklahoma. There's a couple
The Indian reservation wind star wind star
This portion of the broadcast brought you by Winstar.
I had a $200.
What were you playing, Blackjack?
I actually was playing video poker.
Video poker.
The video poker is the one thing I can't figure out.
It doesn't seem like that's something you should go to a casino to play.
I know it's very popular.
I guess it's the same thing with the slot machines.
I was 18 at the time so I was just kind of trying to learn the ropes.
Sure, sure. Yeah there's less pressure I think that you're less
able to see that. The thing I don't get is like when you're playing like let's say for example video
poker it's like there's no physical cards or anything it's all software. Like when does it like
decide okay you can win now oh no you're lose, lose. Like it just seems so much more arbitrary.
Like you can cheat a lot more than if you have a deck of cards
and you're going through them.
Yeah.
Like I don't have that look.
What is the what is the law there?
It's like the payout has to be like 97% right?
I think there's a rule like they they can only take in so much money
and I like that to return so much in payouts.
I think it's like 97% like there's a
In the Clark County, you know, but it's like it seems like with those machines
It's like they've got it down to a science. Yeah, they know exactly to the nickel, you know, how much money you're gonna make or if like the rest of the
Cassino's making too much money they use those machines
Offset it so I'm gonna give you money. So machines are amazing like when I sat down for the first time
I'm like I got to Vegas I
You get it like you get why people just sit there because it's like oh lights
It's no no, I don't get it colors. I don't get it though. There's some that are so crazy
No, I mean I understand how people just get addicted. It's just so much like stimulus to your brain
It's just it's just this weird form of like pleasure to losing mine
Yeah, I've never I've never understood I've never been a big gambler, I guess, in general.
Me neither. It's done, dude. It's just stupid. Yeah.
It did. Oh, well, let Joel tell his stories later.
Speaking of big gamblers. Yeah, I know he loves to gamble. He talked about it.
My bad Vegas trip recently on the podcast a couple of weeks ago.
Yeah, Joel's been fighting all sorts of ways to lose money lately.
Yeah, I can't wait to get an update from him.
So I'm surprised to see you in the office today.
Didn't you just land last night, Brandon?
Oh, yesterday, but we had a, um, we had a long layover, I guess.
And, uh, so it's been a lot easier adjusting.
Luckily, there was a mechanical problem with the plane.
That's always lucky.
I was going to say, I am.
To look at, yes, excellent.
It's where I had a good amount of time to sleep
on the way to Dallas, but, um,
and then thank God the next plane was on fire.
They, I, I, I fell asleep and then I vaguely remember waking up
and then talking about how it's going to be some more time.
They don't know if they can fix the plane.
We're going to see when a sleep warbooking, well, again, they're like, they don't think we're going know if they can fix the plane. We're going to see when a sleep woke up again. They're like, they don't think we're going to be
able to fix the plane. We're going to have to switch planes. Fell asleep, woke up in the air,
fell asleep, woke up, and we were in Dallas. Which is good because I would have freaked the
fuck out. Now on the overseas flight, you were in coach and Joel was in some kind of space-aged
Darth Vader pod. Yeah. No, no, no, no Yeah He was in first class and one of those giant planes they have not just seats
They have these pods like you literally like walking from the back and it looks like it's the Darth Vader pod that he's erupting from
Before he talks to the Empire
Did before he talks to the Emperor? Did they try to hit you with sticks when you went to the first class area?
Could they like
It was like a different form man
I think I could even get there if I wanted to from here? It was like a different door, man.
I think I couldn't even get there if I wanted to.
It was ridiculous.
I had to lock on the door.
Yeah.
You didn't have the password.
You have to know the secret knock.
There were guns.
They were just like a little turret, like, kind of above,
like, following you around as you get close.
How drunk was Joel when he got off the plane?
I don't do.
He claims he didn't sleep at all.
I was like, you can't sleep in first class.
That's nuts. Yeah. Man, yeah, I can't imagine being in that area and for that flight.
And then did you make you like really jealous or really bitter when you got off the plane about it?
I was just happy to be there. How long was it light? It was like 14 hours, but it was like a lot.
We flew to LA and there was only like a couple hour layover.
So it was literally about 26 hours of traveling.
Especially since we ran out of fuel.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that.
Ran out of fuel. They didn't have enough fuel to make it.
So you have to stop in Sydney on the way there?
Yeah, we stopped in Sydney to fuel up
I was just I was like, but why don't want to just they have refuel planes
Let's just bring one of those and you're your final destination that no one's no, but so you stopped in Sydney
And then how long of another flight is it from Sydney to to Mubin?
Man, it was probably another hour and hour and a half we couldn't get off the plane like they didn't let us off the plane
We just refueled. Yeah, so how long did it take to refuel? Probably about an hour hour and a half we couldn't get off the plane like they didn't let us off the plane we just refueled so how long did it take to refuel? Probably about an hour hour and a half. Wow it was just
it was just let's see. Well you didn't run out of fuel when you were over the ocean. Yeah yeah yeah
like we didn't have to crash in the ocean. It would have been like lost. You know the last time I came back from Australia, I was on the Sydney to LA flight.
And I couldn't sleep either.
It's like, you know, it's the middle of the night, I guess, or, you know, it's dark outside
of the room.
Yes, somewhere.
Yes, somewhere.
It's dark outside, at least.
You're supposed to be sleeping.
And so I'm just flipping through the movie thing, because those movie things they have now
in the planes are unbelievable.
It's like 50 movies you can watch, or 100.
Yeah, they're awesome. Yeah. It's not that awesome.
Yeah, and I found an inception and I hadn't seen it quite a while.
So I started watching it, but I was already feeling,
you know, I started to feel kind of drowsy.
You know, I had a couple drinks and I was getting a little bit loopy.
And then at the end, it turns out, you know,
the flight that they are on in the movie is that flight, is that Sydney
to LA flight. It's the same flight I was on. Oh right, yeah.
I'm watching it, and I just got so weirded out by that, and then I was like, I really needed
to fall so I could have gone away. And I couldn't, my eyes were at the close, I would freak
out that I was going to be inceptionized, you know, if I went to sleep. But it was a crazy coincidence. It was weird. And, you know, and we finally got
there and my kid had a little spinning top and news. You finally got to see his face.
I've got to see his face. See you later. I finally turned around.
Um, did you see yesterday about that, um, that plane that landed in Warsaw with no land
nuclear? Yeah. That's crazy. That That's nobody hurt. Yeah, it was a
67 that flew from New Jersey to Warsaw and they had a hydraulic failure. They're landing gear.
Landing gear would not deploy. So they landed on their belly. I didn't think that would really work.
Wow. They had to shut the airport down I think for a day because the plane was blocking the
runways. That pilot's a champ, man. Yeah. How do you tow out an airplane that people know? Did
they, did they announce? They probably probably did they probably made them get crashed
Was crashed position. Yeah. Oh, man. Well, we were we flew
What is crash position?
We're this a couple different ways you do it
You either do this on the seat in front of you or you go you grab your legs like this and you hold
Depending on what the type of seat or position
Yeah, do you ever remember them showing how to do that position on any of the American airlines?
No.
Yeah. They show you on quantism. We're looking at that. I was like, that's so weird.
Like, I've never seen it. It's in the pamphlet in the booklet.
In the safety booklet, if you ever actually flip through it, that's what it is.
No, they don't demonstrate it, but it's in the booklet.
We watched the video and it was just like, they would never do this on any American airline.
Like, it would freak people to fuck out. Did you see those air New Zealand
Safety ads that came out wasn't like two years ago where it was like you know instead of doing you know
Think you said it was a video instead of flight attendants performing in front of you
Just watch this video and it demonstrates all the safety features of your plane
Well, they made these videos and they know that people don't watch them
So they decided to do something a little different and try to get people to watch the safety videos
Mm-hmm
All of the flight attendants in the video are nude with the the new air New Zealand
Uniform painted on their body with body paint. So they do all the demonstrations in the nude
But it looks like they're wearing the uniform way to get attention. Yeah in the effort to get people to watch
Then I've used the naked news broadcast. Yeah, you know not as cool
at least in the naked news broadcast. Yeah, you know, not as cool.
Not as cool.
Once when we first started Ruf's
at the naked news contact us, do you remember this man?
No.
It was like 03 or 04.
Naked news contacted us and wanted to do an interview.
Except, did they want us to be naked?
They don't know.
They did not want us to be naked.
But Jeff and I insisted if they interviewed us
that we had to be naked, they never replied after that.
We're like, we'll totally do it.
We have to be naked.
They were not down with that.
I don't remember who the porn star was.
But I do remember we got contacted at some point
by a porn star asking us to do some kind of co-promotion.
Do you remember that?
Yeah, I'm trying to think of who it was.
That was, I want to say like 2004, 2005.
And it was like, hey, just, in like the wording,
the letter was creepy too. Like like I'm just putting out a
feeler to see you guys would like to you know it was like some important it's a
porn video game right maybe that's what it was yeah I think wanted us to like make
some kind of some kind of stories that make slightly more sense it was like a
vanity project yeah like a porn video right Yeah, it was really odd. I can't really not for the life of me remember who that was I
Like that game all the time
Yeah, names don't matter game play. Mm-hmm. It's like a gameplay is good. That's all I matter. That's right
You know the last time I went to New Zealand
I was I was probably I guess I should preface this with another story first. I always get a little nervous when I
fly internationally, when I get to like customs and immigration. Yeah. I'm always
afraid that, you know, I'm gonna get a lot of line. They're gonna ask me what I'm
doing. I'm gonna get sent back to my home country. And if we have to start
talking about it, it gets really dicey really fast because no one
believes you when you say I work on the internet.
Yeah, I never know what to put.
Yeah, and so like I always put filmmaker.
I mean, as you're like, yeah, no, of course, your camera.
I didn't bring it.
When I went to Vancouver last, I made a terrible misstep right off the bat because we were going to watch it was a
can-wast. And so we were going to like watch a movie. I think it was the first
thing we were doing. I just got the schedule from Dominic and so that was what
was on my mind and the custom guy that goes, so why are you here? And I'm gonna
go see a movie. Like a giant red flag is appearing in his eyes, you know, and he goes, who are you
going to see the movie with? And I said, um, some, some friends, and I was like, oh, man,
I'm, I'm really veering off course. And he goes, oh, yeah, how do you know these friends
from the internet? You know, and he's like, have you really ever met them before? I was like, well, not in real life, does that matter?
Oh my God.
But when we were, the line to get through immigration
at Heathrow this time was really long.
It took a long time.
And when we were, you know, waiting through it,
I noticed there was like, there's two different lines, right?
There's a line for people who are UK citizens,
and there's a line for everyone else.
So we're in everyone else's line. The UK line is kind of next to us but between the two of us
is like this little seating area with like three benches or four benches and
it's roped off. I thought that's really weird. I guess if you get tired they
let you sit there. You know what I was thinking. And then as I'm waiting in line I
see that they start pulling people out of line and that's like the timeout area.
What? That's like where they put you if they have further questions about your suspicious.
Right, the purpose of your visit if you're suspicious.
So they don't take them to another room.
They just sit them in there and they make them wait.
And then after a while, like, I'm just playing for everybody to be in point out.
So like, I mean, I was, depending on where I was in the line, I was as close as like across
this table to them.
Like, imagine you guys are detained and I'm waiting in line to go, you know, try to get to the immigration
control. And I, they started filling it with people and they guys say weren't English
speakers, so they brought some other woman over to translate. And there's like, so there's
two immigration officers, this woman who's translating and the, this man who's asking
the questions and the man asking the questions is like getting in their face
and screaming like, I don't believe you.
What are you trying to get into my country?
And the woman's like sitting there like,
she's also getting angry at like in their face
repeating the same question in another language.
And it's like your story doesn't add up
and they're just yelling at them.
And then finally like the guy like
throws his clipboard down and like storms off.
I was like, what the fuck?
I just like when I'm right next to him. I'm just like what everybody is. And this is like out in the open. Like this is not like in a
back closed door area and then they still keep building the area with more people like what the
fuck is going on. The translation will grab the clipboard and slam it. This is the translation
of that clip. I don't know what happened to those people, they were there the after I left as well.
The transparency I guess is good but it makes it seem like that's the kind of airport
where they would have the new body scanning machine and they would turn it around so everybody
can see it.
Well I had to go to that machine the way back.
We flew from London to D Dallas, in DC to Austin.
And coming through London, like you don't have to take your shoes off,
you just go through a normal metal detector. It was nice.
Yeah. But then when you land in Dallas, you get off the plane,
they make you go through security. Like, you go through immigration,
you go through security again. Yeah.
So before you get back on the plane to go wherever you went,
they of course, I had to take my shoes off and go to the body scanner.
I think the worst airport for that is L.A.
Actually, you know, because even you have to change from the Tom Bradley International
terminal to one of the other terminals.
And yet to get on a bus sometimes, you know, to go from one of the other, it's ridiculous
how it's just completely separated.
Yeah, the L.A. X is weird.
It's like you drive in in that horseshoe shape and it's just a bunch of different, it's
like eight different terminals, right?
Yeah, it's huge. And like the first thing you're thinking would be great to do
after you get off the 17 hour flight is get on a bus you know you know does she can go to another
another plane for another three hours so we landed in LA and we go through customs and we have
to wait for the bag of course it's a huge plane bag takes about like 25 minutes to get there
and then we just go through a couple
more checks and they just look at the passport and that's it. And then walking to another
room and then there's just this baggage area. And they're like, all right, we'll take
your bag, you have a connecting flight. And it's like really like what why did I have to
walk it here? Like why did I have to walk it 20 feet? Like why couldn't you just want
to check it? You didn't you didn't look in it. They want you there for accountability purposes.
And if they pull you aside, they want to see what's in your bag as well.
I guess.
Match the bag to the person.
Right.
They felt like they were laughing at me.
I got the same trouble as you.
They were asking me why I was there.
And I said, oh, this convention, what kind of convention?
I was like, oh, a comic book convention.
They're like, you saw comic books.
And I was like, well, I'm devolved into like this three minute
explanation of what we do for a living, which is never easy to tell anybody who
doesn't know about it, much less a security officer at the airport. The last time
I went through immigration at New Zealand, it was a really long line and like you
said, you know, the plane, you know, everyone got off the plane, everyone gets a
line. And like I said, I always get a little nervous and I got up to the front and I
give the guy my passport and I feel like he's staring at it for a long time. He's looking
at me and looking at the passport like oh fuck you know he there's something he doesn't
like here and he looks at me and he goes you're cussed from red versus blue aren't you?
I'm like oh yeah yeah I am and he's like oh this is your big fan I love it and he starts
talking and it gets like it starts getting uncomfortable because I feel like my oh, yeah, yeah, I am. And he's like, oh, this is your big fan. I love it. And he starts talking. And it gets, like, it starts getting uncomfortable
because I feel like my line's not moving.
And I feel like attention is starting to turn towards,
like from other officers, like, what's going on?
What's taking so long over there?
So like I freaked out.
And you at that event that Billy West
was gonna be there, you know, who does a voice actor
from some future drama.
From future drama, things that I turn around
and I look behind me and I can see
he's a couple of people behind me.
So I'd totally got, like, you love rappers in blue, right?
You go, yeah, I go, do you like Future drama?
It's, oh yeah, I love Future drama.
Look, that's Billy West, right?
Oh shit, do you like STEMs my passport?
Let's me go through to try to get to Billy West.
It was like, it was like the quickest way for me
to try to get out of there.
It was to like deflect to someone else.
I would be scared in that circumstance.
It's like the beginning of, you
know, a suspense movie, kind of plot where the guy like he recognizes you. So he marks
something special on your form. And then he goes off to the bathroom and dies or something.
And some other like, you know, customs agent has to come take everyone and see that yours
form, especially Mark. Then you get all the often the break somewhere in her ass and, you
know, then the four foot dildo comes out. This book boards being thrown down.
It's been thrown.
It's a whole crazy thing.
Anthony Hopkins shows up and he's a new partner.
The last time I was in the New Zealand airport we just arrived and we're at the place where
you're getting your bags.
I guess I think it's one of those in-between places where you get the bags but then you're
taking them somewhere else like Brennan was saying.
And they had the dogs, the drug-sniffing dogs
Everyone around and usually you just see those dogs and they're just kind of like, you know walking around the airport
They're not really stopping anywhere and
My son, you know, it was like three at the time and he's like pointing out the dog and it's like I think he said something like
Daddy that dog really likes those people And I look over and there's like two kind of like Rastafarian kind of
Young kids and they've got dreadlocks and everything and that dog is all up
I think after a while the dog kind of gave up like I couldn't find the specific spot
It was just
Any kind of the dog can have backed off.
And the dog can have looked down at the dog.
And his expression was like, come on, seriously.
And he's like, get back in the dog.
I know you're going to find something.
But we went off on the road.
So that's the solution to sneak drugs into another country.
Yes.
Just sneak like, go everywhere.
Go everywhere.
The dog was like, he was up in their hair. And he was like in their hair. I didn't know they also looked
for drugs in New Zealand because I saw the dogs but they were just looking for food.
New Zealand's hardcore about bringing in fruit or or I think anything else. I think that
might be more of what it is than even the drug thing. Is that immigration thing if you
can't bring in different plants? You know they also have dogs that can smell money.
Do they really?
Yeah.
Because it's not illegal to carry a large amount of money, but you have to declare it.
And when you carry more than that amount of money, it's normally suspicious.
Like, why do you have over $10,000 in cash on you?
So they have dogs that train that can smell money as well.
It's like the idea that they're specially trained dogs.
I don't want to just talk.
Does Joel know about this?
Does he, like, would be his dog of choice?
Just take that dog out in the world anyway.
And just like let it lead to money.
Yeah, it's crazy.
It's the one that thinks the dog can smell.
They have a dog that can smell gold.
I had a speed of which.
I had, there was this guy who came by on Saturday to our booth who was dressed like Greece.
It doesn't sound like that makes sense.
Just like, oh the country.
The country, the country, Greece.
And he had like little Greek flags and was asking everyone for euros.
It was really funny.
That is funny.
I wish I'd gotten a picture of him, but I didn't get it first.
We just put a shirt in the store that's my country entered a period of monetary devaluation
followed by a cycle of unemployment and all I got was a slasie t-shirt inspired by Joel
and Troop and so do we really have that in our show.
Yeah we do.
Well, that's a big thing now. People coming up to Joel and they're just like hey Joel double gold
Talk about gold
Oh, man people yeah, um people people love that stuff
They love hearing Joel rant about the financial system and I'm glad that we have the animated adventures now to
To get that out to a wider audience yours just came out last, Cara. Yes, it did. I think people really liked it.
I thought it was pretty funny. Ah, those hilarious. Yeah. And that happened.
That's real life. Oh, yes. I know.
You're knocking down their ice cream cans all the time. People want that.
People want you to knock ice cream out of it. Has anyone come by the office yet like that?
Yeah, actually, I did knock out one person's ice cream out of their hands.
He, well, he came by for a tour and I gave him a tour
and after he was done, he was like,
oh no, I forgot something, I'll be right back.
And he left and comes back with one of those gas station
drumsticks that's already been made in the package.
And I think I came in and I told you guys about it
and you're busy editing the podcast or something.
So be sure you don't find it in the security camera.
I gotta go back up, but I gotta go back and find it.
I forgot about that.
But it was so funny.
And I was like, OK, I got my stands all set up
and just swung as hard as I could at it.
It broke.
And then I felt bad.
And I was like, I'm sorry.
I don't want to be ruined.
I'm like, afterward.
I was like, you wanted it.
Oh, he loved it.
People at the New York event
kept coming up to the booth nonstop asking for you, because they wanted you to knock ice knock ice with ice cream in their hands because they wanted you to knock ice cream out of it.
He was moaning though as he was, as they were going to be.
It was kinda weird, but I get it.
You guys covered New York already on the podcast?
Yeah, we talked about it.
That sounds like a pretty good event.
We have some good stories. I'm sure there's going to be some animated adventures that come from it.
But if you have, I'm going to give you a quick overview of the highlights.
Yeah.
I have one highlight.
My, the outside perspective.
Michael and Chris met a drug dealer named Kevin.
Nice.
In Times Square, who gave them his business card.
Yes, I heard that in the last podcast.
So what was your highlight from an outside perspective?
That my, you know, we had the two booths essentially this year.
Yeah. I had our distributor head of booth. Yeah booth they had to stand up with caboose where you can
take a picture and my some members of my family that lived in New York had
been to the screening at Lincoln Center that we did years and years ago and
they went to the to the other booth and their daughter took a picture with
caboose with in the stand-up which is really cool and they sent it out to family and stuff.
And then our mom was like, hey, this is so cool, because my cousin does this and we were at the Lincoln Center event years ago.
And I think the distributor people, they had never heard that we did a Lincoln Center event.
They were like, no, they do think of something else. And then anything to fall, because I got a big like shouting match over like, like, just no, it's really real.
And stuff like that. But so that my family ruined that.
Yeah, so we're done with events for a while, until next year, which is good.
Well, way to go out with the bank. Yeah. We. In fact, I'm glad you mentioned booking Comic Con hotel
so far in advance, because normally in November,
it's one of the book, San Diego Comic Con hotels.
So I need to probably go do that after we're done recording
this podcast.
That's insane.
Yeah.
That's silly and insane.
What do you think?
Do you think we're going to do a lot of events again
next year?
Or do you think we'll scale back to normal?
Normally, most years, we only do the taxes and San Diego Comic Con.
Yeah.
This year, we kind of went a little crazy and did a whole bunch.
I don't know.
It's hard to say.
I think, you know, it seemed to go well this year,
you know, for the most part, we've got a lot coming up
with RTX.
We're like, I guess we haven't really talked
too much about that yet, right?
Should be news on that very soon.
I think we're near a point where we can start talking
about that.
Yeah.
So that'll take a lot of our resources.
Yeah.
But yeah, I mean, I think all the events
that we went to this year were a lot of fun.
It was nice that a lot of people in the office
have had gone to events before.
It got to do some.
I think everyone except for Carr has been to one now.
I know, I guess I'm.
You did RTX this year.
We'll have to take her to that ice cream convention.
Holy shit.
No, we should take her somewhere.
And sell ice cream in the booth for like 10 bucks
a cone. If you want carrot and knock it out, it's an additional like five bucks. I make a fucking killing.
Well, we're always looking for stuff to do in the booth, you know, more or more interactivity. I think
it's a good thing. I like it. Yeah, I like it. I thought the L-Sjoliet trip and the Z-Lin strip
went really well. I'm mad you went to Sydney, right? I went to Sydney earlier this year with Jeff. We had a really good time.
Thank Griffin.
And yeah, what else do we do?
It's nice to go to the international stuff.
Yeah, I feel like people.
Even if we don't do other domestic events, I'd like to keep, you know, at least one Australian New Zealand event and maybe the one in the UK again.
Yeah, the one thing I really like about going to do the events, you know, far overseas,
is that they're so appreciative about us coming out.
And I don't know if it's because they're so far away, it's hard to get, you know, people
to come out for events like that or whatever.
But I mean, the reception we get in Australia and New Zealand is just off the charts.
Yeah, same in the UK, everyone was so nice.
I mean, people brought lots of liquor.
People were like, we had so much scotch and gin and someone brought some coffee.
I didn't notice that you brought some back to the office.
You can't bring it on the plane.
Ah.
So I had to drink it all.
What an hardship.
We drank almost all of it.
I think we had like four bottles of scotch and a bottle of gin.
I think we had a little bit of one bottle of scotch left at the end of it.
We fucking powered through it.
That's a good dimension.
Yeah.
So no merchandise, but we still turn to profit.
Yes.
We still got drunk.
So we had all that.
People brought snacks and like all kinds of food.
Like from, I don't know what most of stuff was. I guess it's like British stuff I had a British stuff I had a disgusting sandwich on the
flight on the way back that's unusual for having gone to the UK they're known for their
delightful yeah so like I'm sitting there and they like they give me the throw the sandwich
I mean it was an awful flight on the be back anyway the sandwich is throwing at me
It's in like a plastic bag so I opened it up and it's a cold sandwich
It's obviously been in the refrigerator and it's ham and cheese and what looks like some kind of cream spread on it
Like I don't know cream cheese or something. All right, so I take a bite out of it
I'm like that spreads really weird and the spreads thick like that thick
You can't see on the podcast anyway, so it's like a white cheddar ham and I can't bite out of it and I'm like, that spread's really weird and the spread's thick. Like that thick, you can't see on the podcast, anyway.
So it's like a white cheddar ham and I can't figure out the spread.
And I take another bite and I'm like, that's butter.
Oh, I've had a butter ham and cheese sandwich over there
before, yeah.
It's a cold ham and cheese and butter sandwich.
That's a lot of butter though.
It was thick, it was like as thick as the cheese was.
Ew.
And I was so hungry on that plane that I ate the entire thing.
It was like, oh, what's wrong with me?
What's wrong with them making the cheese better on it?
It's weird what everybody's like.
Like, I think I was a normal food,
but you change one thing about it and it gets really weird.
You know, just different cultural things.
You're just thinking about cheese or something, but it's butter.
Yeah, the big, the big cheese would have been weird.
The thing in Australia, I could not get over. It was that they put fucking beats fucking beats on their hand. Oh, I hate that. Why did they do that burgers are just weird man?
Even the most are like around me right? They're not they're not like formed. Yeah, these are like like they've been shredded or I had to ask for no pineapple
Yeah, do you want it to the side?
Yeah, do you want it to the one meal where it's okay
to get as many drinks as you want.
It's true.
You can have coffee, various juices, water, milk.
And if you need hair in the dog,
you can have a little whisk here, fear something.
So nobody's gonna say, hey, that's all right.
It's true.
I always think about that.
Breakfast is the special meal.
So now whenever I do eat breakfast,
I make sure I line up as many drinks like can
Yeah, it's like I want to be able to drink everything if you're a beverage lover
Breakfast is your deal
Breakfast is made for beverage lovers
But yeah, I don't actually ate there's this
Caribbean place oddly enough across the street from our hotel. It was like the only restaurant out there
That we ate at that was really fucking good. Oh yeah. Yeah. I wouldn't. It was amazing.
Where'd you eat there? I had jerk chicken, but it was like it was actually kind of spicy,
and it was seasoned really well. It was juicy. It was awesome. So if you're in docolins,
I highly recommend Caribbean scene. Interesting. At the Royal Victoria doc.
Whenever it's like, you know when you're in the US and you're eating
you know other cultural cuisine like Chinese food or Caribbean food or Mexican food or whatever. You know it's not like definitively that culture is way of making the food but we are so ingrained
to what you know we think it's supposed to taste like here. Whenever you go overseas to you know
in the place and they make it differently, to me, it's always like
They're trying to be like impersonate
What you know it tastes like if it was American style Chinese food or a mayor, you know one of those other ones
It's like it's the weirdest experience. It's like like the thing with the pineapples on the hamburger You'll get like some kind of very typical Chinese food like an egg roll and it'll have beets inside it or who knows
what you know you know one one time we had dinner or it's a couple of nights we
had dinner at the at the hotel we were staying at and one of the menu items you
could order was braised faggots like it's like all it was like all the other
menu items is braised faggots then under it's like faggots means meatballs
or something else there's like an explanationaggots means meatballs. Or like, something else.
There's like an explanation of what it said.
I guess they've got sick enough here constantly.
We're not gonna change it.
We're just gonna ask her to clear faggots.
So you ordered the faggots and got balls in your mouth?
Yes, that's exactly what happened.
I knew this trip was gonna be good
because on the first day we were there, I ate a kangaroo.
Did you really eat a kangaroo?
Yes, as soon as we got there, that's what I wanted to eat,
something I couldn't eat in America
and I ate a kangaroo.
My only complaint is that I couldn't pick out
the exact kangaroo that I ate.
Like I wanted to be able to go to like a reserve
and say that one.
I wanna eat that kangaroo.
Like with the lockers and the tanks.
And they give you a knife and you get to bite it.
It's got the boxing gloves.
And that's what I wanted to do.
I wanted a boxer kangaroo.
But Brandon's way more brutal than me.
I guess you're just like, I hear kangaroo
will fuck you up with its hind legs.
Oh yeah.
Because it means back on its tail.
Yeah.
Koala's two men, terrifying.
But they away from Koala.
Like a death grip. Just like grab you and just like yeah, but I think Katie from the Archie Oz group told me that
Yeah, eating kangaroos is considered a very good thing like you're supposed to eat kangaroos because
I'm looking at dollars. Well, no, no more like it's local and
You know they have a lot of kangaroos, so it's not like they're
An endangered species or something. Yeah, and it's not like they're using up the land with cattle that need a lot of water and
I guess that's true. You know, it's more...
They're on the wild. It's better like, ecologically and environmentally, it's better to eat kangaroos.
Interesting. Apparently. So, kangaroos... That's how they spin it.
They're trying to get people to spin it. They're trying to get people to see a spitter.
Yeah, you know, Australia.
Also, they're supposed to eat avariginies.
Apparently, they're not.
No.
No, apparently, Brandon, you're doing your part to protect Australian environment and wildlife.
I just want to clarify, and no way was that my motivation.
I think I just wanted to eat a kangaroo.
All right.
Okay, well, we should probably wrap this up.
I know people hate it when I say that, but thank you for joining us everyone.
And hopefully next week we will have more of or we'll tell the story of Australia and New
Zealand.
With Bernie and Joel.
Yes.
Yeah, I am going to be doing a lot of, I'm going to be on the defensive mode.
Okay, I'll play, I'll play rap.
