It's time to put your pedal to the metal. From the twisted minds behind Deadpool and Zombieland, an executive producers, Will Arnett and Anthony Mackie comes the new Peacock original series, Twisted Metal, a high-oxane action comedy based on the classic video game series. Anthony Mackie stars as John Doe, a motormouth outsider who must deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. If he can survive the drive, also starring Stephanie Beatriz, Samoa Joe, Nev Campbell, Will Arnett, and Thomas Hayden Church.

Twisted metal, streaming only on peacock. We've got to come and say some old and weird words to say. Let's go! It's over the show! We've got to go, we've got to come and say, I'm here! Keystone! That was awesome! That was completely awesome! That was completely awesome! I feel compelled to plug that guy's band.

Absolutely. Violet Fuse. Violet Fuse. We made this week's podcast intro. Who's this weird to me when there's people out there that actually played musical instruments? Those are Violet Fuse this week in the... What's the guy's username? That I didn't write down. I just thought it was band. I'm gonna look at Violet Fuse on Google right now. Violet Fuse has like a porn star. He sent me a link to their album on iTunes, which I'm sure you can purchase. That's badass. That was a great intro. That's the fucking test promotion right there. That guy. There you go. That's a plug and a half right there. That never happened.

Yeah. By now. So what you're buying the Red vs Blue is a Season 9 soundtrack. Yeah, I love that Violetet fuse has a Myspace site. That's awesome. And a Cinnamon No shirt and a Rage Quit T-shirt. Yeah, buy it all. Buy it all and save. Hey, who are you? So Brian Beam, who is our graphic designer, showed me a viewed T-shirt.

Oh, what is this? I saw your Twitter about it. What, what, look, can I see it? Oh my god. Actually, you know what, I'm ashamed to admit this, but I I have my I chat set up so it doesn't save my chats. Oh, you dumb. I gotta turn that back on so I can log my chats. I don't know why, I went into a privacy phase.

Is that your personal laptop? Your personal laptop. Like you own that one, like the company in about it for you. See, I learned that pretty quick, is you have to have your own laptop that you can close down and lock away that no one else at the company should be able to see. It's a bad idea to have your stuff open.

Yeah, this is my personal, exact. I bought my money, yet all of the company information flows through it. Well, I just have my mail and my, what are you complaining about? What are you complaining about? I'm not complaining, I'm just, you sound like you're upset.

I'm complaining, I'm upset about, why did you, I'm upset about B's as well, I'm upset about actually. So I'm Jack Patillo. Gus. Joel. I'm Bernie Burns. There we'm Jack Patillo. Gus. Joel. I'm Bernie Burns. There we go.

Now we can continue. You have bees in your office? I saw you Twitter about that. Like, do you really have bees in your office? Yeah. There's a behind it. I saw bees flying around downstairs outside in the parking lot. Yeah, I don't know.

They made my great up to your house. There were no bees. We had no bees here before. And then it was like 30 degrees here two days ago. Now there's 4,000 bees. We know we have some bees are they have doors broken too. Have you noticed that? Yeah, the side doors No, no security. Yeah, let's watch you announce that also all the expensive items on the second floor We've got bees guarding that's true. We do have bees We also had your windows open yesterday all day

Yeah, that's what I'm saying is like we didn't have any bees before and as soon as I open my windows So I don't really shut your window when the first bees showed up It's a bee. Maybe it's a fluke. You know one bee's not gonna kill you have anyone in this office is allergic to bees I asked around nobody is and if they are I have my epi pen I just I just like carry was like let's get the scissors lift on a hose or like no No, let's's get the scissors lift don't a hose or like no no Let's not get the scissors lift No, it's not it's not turn this into like no no let them do it let them do it. No, I'm doing it Still man, but I'm just a little bit. I'm working

This is buzz buzz buzz and it got louder and louder and louder and like what the fuck is going on with this being It's like one B turned into seven like in front of you turn in the seven behind me. You should start smoking I should start smoking. And then the smoke will passify them. Yeah. And then you can give them a cigarette and they'll start smoking with you. How does that work?

So beekeepers. Hey, what is the place where they keep bees? There's a fancy name for this item. There is. Gust, you know? Yeah, the Bee Motel. It's an APAry. That's right.

APAry. What is... Also known as Bee Motel. Also known as Bee Motel. Why do they use smoke to play kitties? What is it about smoke? Yeah, it's weird, right? I don't know. I don't know. You know, apparently I'm asking now. Sex have the sensory organs to text smoke somehow, I guess, and it bothers them. The quiz portion of the the beekeeping part is over. I now want to know information. Do they? I have a friend saying in my house, and she left like a thing out.

I don't know what happened, like food or something, and like it was like, oh, a nat. And it was like those little tiny gnats, it's like, oh, well, this is gonna explode, and sure enough it did, it was like a thousand gnats. Like that's it. I'm just defibrillized. Yeah, defibrillized.

Yeah, and those things are awful. And it's just like that's it I'm lighting candles. Okay, everywhere. It's as much smoke and possible. In my high school, we would do experiments in genetics. It was a lesson to learn about Darwinism and, you know, for a fly always goes back to fruit fly. It always goes back to fruit fly. So we'd breed fruit flies, I guess. Yeah, I never actually did the experiment when I was in biology, but every year,

the whole high school would fill up with fucking fruit fly. Yeah, it's the same everywhere. I didn't buddy who would smash him to his notebook and keep like a paid dead fruit flies. So apparently smoke masks the alarm pheromone that bees put off. Shit! So it's essentially disrupting their communication. So when they're smoke, they smoke's disrupt their alarm. Yeah, so maybe they can't communicate the fact that there's an alarm. See what there's trouble?

This just tells me I'm gonna start smoking next time I hit on a girl. This is like, it's like only if her name starts with a letter B. Don't be a trist. Belinda, your friends. Don't alert your friends. Everything's fine. Everyone on Twitter is of no hope,

what's up, no help or hope. There's no help, so ever. You can really expect people on Twitter to be a help. No, they're no help. What, you you want to help you with your beat problem? Just close your window and start smoking that's it. We have screen we didn't have screens for this building when we moved in no No, I don't think we had screens Joel moved into my old office So Joel does is three times now. I'm like the Michael Young of upstairs

Where it's like I went from second base Shortstop no one's gonna understand that right. I have no idea what you're talking about They're gonna think you're talking about rage quit. What was your eating move offices three times? He moved twice He's had three offices. Okay, he's had Congress. Oh You're counting the move from the old office. Yes, Joel. Let's go back. I was really counting. I was really counting I'm gonna say he's he's had three offices. That's more than anyone else here. Joe is a military group.

He's used to moving around. Oh yeah, that's funny too. I've moved more than anyone in life also. I mean, I can't even... If you take Matt's office, you will have gone through all four of the upstairs offices. Yeah. You're slut. You're office slut.

Yeah. I'll take the bees with me. Follow me everywhere. You're roommates. When you take over Matt's office, just make sure you're smoking so he's alarm paramount It's fine He's gonna talk. Come on. I don't know about this on the podcast. What's that? I guess there's one member of our wait I can I gotta stop you on something real quick though. Oh because we got too far away from it. Who's the girl who's staying with you?

You know, it's a friend. It's just a friend's friend of Jacks who just hasn't been living with you. There's nothing more to this? No. Good looking friend? She's good looking, yeah. But no, no, no, no, no, stop it. I think I know who this friend is. Stop it. And she is good looking. So, no, you can't, I mean, you just, I'm just, you can't casually mention, I'm just helping someone in need. Really? That's all I'm doing. That's how I'm gonna call it. From that one. You're a true state. You're like Bernie and the homeless people downtown.

You're like a number of people who are in need of helping them. Yeah, to be as easily as they're hot and only if they're female. She is a dog and a dog. You notice there's never any hot female homeless people? Nope. True, it doesn't work. Anyway, this is what we're doing. It will usually after you have like a massive heroin addiction, that doesn't leave you in

a good position regarding. Yeah, the meth face. Yeah. Louis CK, did you guys see the thing that he put his one of his comedy shows? Yeah, I bought it. I bought it too. Bacon theater, right? Bacon theater.

You can't see it. It's like a bacon theater. I don't know what you're talking about. So Louis CK did a thing where he recorded one of his own shows and it's put online for five bucks. No DRM or anything, you just buy it. And you buy it through PayPal for five bucks. That's it and download it. And it's like this brave new business model

that we've been doing for the last eight years, nine years, but we're not too big deal. But in this comedy show, he has a bit where he talks about that there's no bad looking musicians. It's like, what is the chance of that? That like everybody who has musical talent is also really good looking. What a coincidence. Why is that the case?

Then he's talking about how everything's over sexualized. Yeah. Nowadays, there's no bad looking musicians. I mean, there are some there as opposed to like the 1500s. Well, I don't know. Like, you look at the the bars traveling. You look at like the lead singer, Aero Smith, right? That guy Steven Tyler.

You know who's good looking. I guys not good looking, right? Girls think he's good looking though, because they're distracted by the music. Yeah. I'll tell you a good looking man. It's like disabled. There's a lot of people.

There's no beef. I was out and twilling and he got a tell like Joe got a blast out of somebody. That's looking man that I know of his violet fuse. Rock. Rock. Rock. So Joel, I'm sorry.

You were saying to tell a story and I derailed you. It doesn't. I thought that was the of his violet fuse. Rock! Rock! So Joel, I'm sorry. You were taking the telestory and I derailed you. I did. I thought that was the dog or the animal? No, it was before I brought the girl. You were moving into something else and trying to back it. Yeah, I remember. Well, listen, Joel's got a better strategy than I do because when I befriend homeless people I end up with people that I can't get rid of who want to just eat lumps of tuna.

That's it. He ends up with pretty girls living in his apartment Have you ever seen have you ever watched an episode of hoarders the Q show shows terrible there was one episode where this dude in New York Had such a bad hoarding problem that as he started cleaning they found a homeless dude living in his yard Really yeah, wow that's pretty impressive. What's he alive? Did the homeless you have a hoarding problem? And then the homeless dude started helping you clean up and started yelling at the dude for being so mischievous. Did your life know her dude? Did you know your fucked up win.

Yeah. There's someone living on your property you don't know. And then they're making fun of you for being messy. Yeah, that's crazy. That's pretty nuts, man. Those hoarding shows are great because it's like, well, no matter how fucked up things have gone for me, I can just look at this guy. Yeah, it's like going to state fair on TV basically.

It's making you feel better about yourself. Like, well I'm not eating a turkey leg right now. And it would be awesome. It would be awesome if they just had a channel which was people shopping at Walmart. That's like, no. I feel terrible about myself. I wouldn't, not to bad. Yeah, I would watch that.

I might get cable for that. That sounds like the best reality. It's like people of Walmart, but in video form. Right. It's a livestream. You can pick different Walmart. So you know, like, they're the Ozark Walmart. No, you say, like, they should have

some editorial control over it. Like, they should be picking the best feed at any given time. Oh, you said me that. You said me that. You said it was awesome. The Red Zone Network except for Walmart. You said me that awesome rap video about the guy singing, rapping about Walmart and the quality guy singing about all the world.

Oh, you got to like that. That's insane. That's going to be the greatest thing. He's wrapping up Walmart and Walmart. That should be a candidate for Internet. Let me use your laptop here. Am I allowed to use your personal laptop, Joel? We just have this discussion.

I know. I asked permission. I need to jump on it. I don't care, people. Why is there stock advice on here? Yeah, I was just doing an old podcast. I mentioned how my laptop, my old laptop was stolen, and how disappointed I was that I didn't have anything in my laptop that would come back to haunt me.

It's like, the shows I have boring life that I'm not worried about anything getting out there. That, I mean, I don't really either, but it's like, still though I have it security locked. No, it's just like right. It's mr. ghetto wall martin is the new orleans bounce new orleans Bounce is by mr. ghetto Oh The nobody came out looks like it came out this year? Oh did it all right? I wish the real and the list the thing is insane. I think I think Jeff may have shown that to me for the first time

But good god, man, you know how I'm gonna get up and write that I'm not sure if you guys have a talent for fun and stuff if he makes videos anymore. Did you ever watch all the mr. Chai city videos? That sounds familiar. God. There's one video where mr. Chai city is a He's doing it's cribs to tour of his house. It's fucking And then there's one where he has to kill a bug God that it worries to kill the bug The killing the bug one is so fucking awesome. They're all do you smoke what's that no? You smoke and he's a crutch He's a crutch and a lot of screaming

He's a crutch. He's a crutch and a lot of screaming. He's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, he's like, sh, he's like, shh, he's like, shh, right? No, because the fucking assholes that work here, they went and did like a premier night thing. Didn't invite anybody. Yeah. Not a single person. Yeah, Marshall and Zach, or Marshall and Chris and Zach have been friends for years. I guess they went and watched the premier and they just left and was like, oh yeah. Then they met up with us that night.

They were like, oh yeah, we watched it at a bar. I was like, oh, thanks, thanks guys. I mean, when Zach won the contest the final day, we didn't know if he was going to win or not, but we did the thing at the Alamo. That was fun. And we were integral in rigging the vote. Absolutely. Absolutely. Just figured out the computer thing. Yeah, we were all over that. Thanks, Oprah. When he was actually in the contest, let's talk for Reels now. When he was in the contest, he was had just

tons of votes that were pouring in everywhere. This is the same thing we see over and over again, right? I want to say he had like six million votes, but then there was some other lady who was keeping pace with them and No way. No, it was one of those things where the polls closed Zach was clearly in the lead and then they released the final tally and Zach felt like seven. Yeah That was like what I'm saying. We've seen this again and again and again Some person who's ignorant of the internet some like corporation wherever we go like seven. Yeah. And I was like, wait, what? This is what I'm saying. We've seen this again and again and again. Yeah. Some person who's ignorant of the internet, some corporation

wherever we go, we're going to do this. We're going to let the internet decide. And the internet decides. And they're like, meh. Yeah. We're not going to let the internet decide. We're going to open it. No one will notice if we change it.

Yeah. On second side. This is pretty much how our elections work. You don't fit our, you don't fit our stereotype. Or a character or something. Well, now here's another good example. Because I'll be, I'll be perfectly honest. I don't have the own network. I just, I don't have it. Yeah, I don't fit our stereotype or character. Well, no, here's another good example because I'll be perfectly honest. I don't have the own network.

I just, I don't have it. Yeah, I don't have it. This is Oprah's network and so I want to watch that show. We also have longer network. That's real. Yeah. I'm a guy, I'm a guy from the internet. I want to watch Zach and her show.

So how do I do it now? You know, it's like, I'm locked out from doing it because I don't have the own network. Which I get to try to start a network. Yeah, it's like everything the new, the new it because I don't have the own network. Which I get to try to start a network. Yeah, it's like everything the new the new format is you have to go to a sports bar. Yeah, it's like yeah, sports bar. It's like now bars are becoming theaters for TV. Yeah. Yeah. That's crazy. It's funny because Zach is a genuinely genuinely funny guy. That trailer that they cut here at the office or whatever that thing I thought was hysterical. Yeah, that is a funny

guy. How to be a professional television? Oh, that's great. Yeah, Zach is a funny dude. So anyway, yeah, the first two episodes premiered this Monday and I guess they're going to do two episodes a week for the next two more weeks. And Zach continues that trend of if you want to be very successful in entertainment, work for Richard Heath for about five and a half minutes. And that's it.

I mean, let's stick around longer. Just remember that. Keep that in mind, my lacunus. I know I said it last week. Don't want to come across the desperate. I'm just going to throw it out there. I guess, throw it out. Exactly.

It was in the background of one of our shorts. The one where Jeff falls through the floor. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The secret button one. And I think two days later, he had that video and exploded.

It's like, we were trying to figure out how to work with him and everything. And, you know, and we were working all that out. And then all of a sudden, he's got a show with Oprah. He's hugging Oprah on National Television. So, pretty funny. So, Goese, what's the name of the show? It's Roland was Zach.

Roland was Zach, so the series of YouTube videos that were kind of similar to that. But anyway, Goese, Zach can't show Roland was Zach on the own network. Oprah win free. I believe it is. There's Monday nights correct Monday nights seven central eight specific or eight Eastern excuse me and actually there was a possibility he would come on today on the podcast But because of all the stuff we have going on we couldn't work it out

So hopefully he'll be on some time in the future. We're hoping to work it out So maybe maybe next week, but don't keep your fingers crossed. He's a funny funny dude. I just keep your fingers crossed Don't hope your breath. You don't want to fingers crossed. Dude, he's a funny, funny dude. Just keep your fingers crossed. Don't poke your breaths. You don't want to help premier this week that I'm missing out on right now. Old Republic. Old Republic.

So Adam, okay, so they're doing early release for Old Republic. It actually comes out officially week from today. Fucking Adam is an adrenate. A week from yesterday. Yes, yesterday. He was out of work. He's at the Alder on flu.

So, yeah, so if you pre-ordered like based on when you pre-ordered, I get early access to the millions of baffles died And so I'm not in it yet, but Adam is and is he is he coming in today? Well No, nope, that's what we're having some male trouble that's working on right now, okay Wouldn't that necessitate being in the office then no No, I could fuck no. Cool, right? Yeah, fuck us new remote jobs. So anyway, so I'm sitting there. I literally got on last night. I got so bored waiting for for Star Wars that I play wow.

So I played some of the new, uh, the new instances, Gus. They're pretty cool. Nice. Yeah, I haven't touched the, uh, the 4.3 patch. Yeah, that's cool. I watched, I watched a video of them downing deathwing or like, you know, raid downing deathwing. Hey you know raid downing deathwing Hey, you want to see something? I want to see something look at that

What is that weight is over are you kidding me? We're saga begins god damn it. It's got it. So you just got in Yeah, I'm gonna check my email now. I think did I I don't know if I got it I think I got one of them no you don't you know you never got a pre-order are you gonna play are you to play Joel? Maybe I'm scared because I never got a pre-order. Are you going to play, Joel? Um, maybe. I'm scared because, uh, if I get sucked in, you know, I just, I don't know if I've got the time. So, anyway, you think that might be a good time to start talking about the, uh, I've got to talk to my games.

Why not? Let's do it. To a segway on that. Why is, why, I'm going to start complaining immediately. Why, why is Nyan cat up there? God. Hey, okay. So I wrote down all of our nominations above the line, then below the line,

our suggestions, that we've pulled from you or the before. So how does this work? Do we do one, two, and three for our favorite, or is it just pick one? It's a free for all. So rumble. All right, I wanna say that one's free.

I think the formula of cutting stuff works well. You think so? I think so, because then we can get into the arguments, we need to say that the formula of cutting stuff works well. You think so? I think so because then we can get into the arguments. We need to narrow it down. Well, let's start with the shittiest category. Which is movie. Alright. We'll start with the movie and we'll list the movie.

Let's go ahead and knock off Jack Harry Potter Rise of the planet of the apes rides made super eight rango and There's gonna be some support in the forums for 50 50 so I wrote that up there as well. Okay 50 50s the The movie with Joseph Gordon leather and Jonah I'm not Jonah Hill Seth Rogan yeah, what he Spoiler. That's in the trailer. I don't know how it is. Didn't they do this movie already with Adam Sandler like two years ago? That was funny.

Funny people. That which was my favorite about an hour too long. Or are you typing? That was the problem. The funny people is a great movie except for the fifth act, which it just like the main character is supposed to like the whole time just turns and becomes fucking evil and it's like I hate this guy know like they build up the whole movie you're trying to like you know enjoy this character all of a sudden it's turns it's like oh no he's a raging asshole and it you know voids everything in the whole movie but

anyway let's move on to the movie so I think we should strike Harry Potter no you should not I think this is the one is part two. I think there's the most more movie I think there's the most movie we don't have to have to have to debate. Yeah, Harry Potter, we don't have to have to have to debate. Why? What do you feel? I think it's Harry Potter, yeah. I think it's Harry Potter, yeah. That's two.

And let's see you guys come up with the jury, that's. What do you think? What you're, I say bridesmaids. Bridesmaids. I'm not a massive fan of Harry Potter, but I would have to recognize that, I mean, you know, it's the end. It's like the return of the king for the Harry Potter. It's the accomplish, it's eight movies. It's eight movies and it's successful movies.

Let me ask you questions. Return to the sky. Just throw this out there. Do you think that Harry Potter is a bigger franchise than Lord of the Rings? Yeah, I do. Yeah. I would say so too.

More movies, you know, they do have more movies. I wonder, I'm not sure if I'm going for quantity. I'm just like, you know, overall, I Stink them out every week if you want to and like someone who's in it their mid-twenties today and said I have a copy of Lord of the Rings Or I have a copy of Harry Potter. They will they will take Harry Potter out of your hands. They're very specific Someone in the 20s. Well, I'm said if you go to the target demographic for this, they're gonna love it If you go to a preteen and say what do you want to watch Lord of the Rings or Twilight? Twilight? It was much bigger. Tell them about a bigger franchise and say what do you want to watch Lord of the Rings or Twilight? Twilight is much bigger. Talk about a bigger franchise.

I mean, like, you know, historically, you're going to say Lord of the Rings because it's been a rally for a while. Here's a question. Is Harry Potter done now? Uh, supposedly yes. It's because I mean Lord of the Rings is not, right? JK Rowling has said that she, like, the thing, it might not be completely dead, but as of now, the Harry Potter is wrapped up. But we have the Hobbit coming up, right?

Yeah. Yeah, there's new Hobbit coming up that and so I don't know But I mean bridesmaids was good, but it was it was 20 minutes too long for me All right, I'm just trying to fight your your Harry Potter pick. No, I think I thought Bernie brought up an interesting I mean I won yesterday or last week about you know him being born into it. I thought that was fascinating It's very British. It's like the Royalty Co. Yeah, and I don't know, and traditional American movies is a guy, or has to earn it. Oh, he's nothing.

I don't know. I find that interesting, but also the fact that he was his uncle. Well, America, America, and its core was formed in response. It's like an anti-royalty company. I mean, is that a British thing? I mean, I'm not really super familiar with it. Well, they have a royal family this day, so right. So greatness by birth. Which I never got. I never get that. It doesn't make any sense.

I don't think they get it. When you talk to them about it, they're like, oh, it doesn't matter. But it's like, no, these people have palaces. No, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they I'm a fucking special on NBC the other night about the marriage of whoever dumb fucking stupid bitch. Kate Middleton. Yeah, there was like an hour long special. I mean, it's like, who the fuck is watching this? Some people watch the hell out of that stuff, which is like, it's always like disappointing. It's like, people are the Ascians, the European version. Or Jersey Shore.

I don't know. I don't know if I had to watch those dancing hamsters from the Kia commercial or that Royal wedding. Royal wedding. I probably watched the dancing hamsters. Oh God see I differ with you on that. Like it's just so awful. The dancing hamsters are more soulless. All right all right so what what should we do now? Should we start? It sounded like it's Harry Potter. Three of you agreed on Harry Potter. I'm saying Harry Potter definitely hell is part two makes it the winner. All right, hey, congratulations Harry Potter is a good idea.

I was part of it. Do we have poppers? I don't guess as poppers in his office. Should we go grab some? I was no earthquake right now. Did you guys see the machinima awards? So this can be officially to say then you're a winner Harry. I mean, I have you lots of bad movies.

That's the only reason you voted. That's how you could say that. I would do, I mean, come on. Harry Potter's got to win. No, it's got to. Yeah. Okay, what should we move to DLC? I say TV.

TV? Yeah. So another, you know, absolutely category. We have nominated Breaking Bad Modern Family, Walking Dead Adventure Time and Community, and below the line there, we left off, We had nominated Breaking Bad Modern Family, walking the adventure time in community, and below the line there, we left off, or maybe things we should consider as well, were Dexter and Louis.

Dexter has been fantastic this season. But that's one of those shows. I don't like putting a show on there that people don't have access to, which Dexter's and HP are a showtime. And you know, like, because the show was born into greatness. What's in mind? It was born in blood.

Anyway, I loved X-ray though. Yeah, I know, I know you're a huge fan and I was actually a little surprised that we didn't bring up either of these last week's discussion. Yeah, actually we started talking about Louis today and didn't even think about the show. I'm going to say, I'm going to go with Zack's show. Roll his X-ray. Roll his X-ray win. Yeah, Louis had a good season. and think about the show. I'm gonna say, yeah, I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show.

I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show.

I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show.

I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack's show. I'm gonna go with Zack on TV. I mean, every character in that show is amazing. Like, everyone is like fleshed out those characters so well, and everyone's got these great storylines. I can't, and there's no other show beats it right now for me. And I mean, and I love Dexter, I love community, but not Breaking Bad. It's bar none best show of 2011. Have you seen Adventure Don? I've not seen Adventure Don. But I cannot imagine it's better than bringing that. You on the same boat, Bernie? Well, one last year for TV show for us. Modern family. So I would vote for Louis just because the last two seasons of Louis have been

tremendous and I know Breaking Bad's gonna win. I just started watching Breaking Bad. I'm not up to the season that currently aired this time. So I don't know what to tell you. I would vote for Louis but I don't bring bads and wind. But breaking bads is awesome. They're both really awesome. It's gotta be a breaking bad, right? Oh, sounds like it. It's gotta be. Alright. Alright. Well, I'm gonna circle that one. Alright. Congratulations Breaking Bad. We haven't gotten any fist fights yet.

That's amazing. Oh, we're kinda going through the easy ones. Yeah, yeah. These are one sort of, like, kind of... I'm gonna be optimistic guys. I'm saving game for the end I'm still pissed off about games. We can fight some more over that one All right, so Gus now he's certainly breaking bad as our winner for the Wichita podcast 2011 best television show as selected by us the podcast tours. What's the next easy one? Oh god, I don't know. They're gonna get kind of hard now deals here internet videos

I think like deal deal deal GC Real GC Very nice you're right it now. We'll game content deal GC. Do you want to run on the list? Yeah, we got portal to peer review Mass Effect to the arrival dead space to severed Crimson Alliance forks must die and Hila reach anniversary map pack and Based on feedback in the forum, people thought we overlooked Bastion. That game is a lot of hype around the game. Yeah. We were burning hour at this award thing we did last week and Bastion took in like three awards for like

independent games. Oh yeah. Yeah. Like I played it. It was, it was okay. How far did you get into it? I think I've probably got like halfway through it. What anything to it? It's also got a good look to it. The style that they chose. It's like braid, right? That sort of colorful look to it. Yeah, it's got a colorful look to it. I mean, it's like, I wouldn't say braid, but yeah, it's definitely reminiscent of that

super stylized, super colorful, almost like a painting or some very rich art to it. One anything was, I think like four guys made that game too, which is kind of cool to see something like that. I don't know, yeah made by such a small team. I mean, that's a question effect goes into the equation or not No, I mean, I'm just throwing it out there. Just discussion kind of like history of the game I mean, I honestly I'll be honest. I haven't touched it. I've played it at all I've seen some stuff from it and it looks great, but What I'm providing I just love the fact that it's like we have have to say in three or the four of us have

not touched the game. We're trying to talk around it. It's like, yeah, well, uh, I played it. I'm willing to talk about it. But I just wanted to, you know, I guess say that I liked it and it was a good game, but I don't think it was deal GC of the year. Yeah, I'm counting. I mean, I'll be honest of the seven things we have up there.

I've only played three of them. Yeah, three of them So yeah, this one's gonna be kind of tough. I thought this one would be a little easier than it really is I mean, I love Dead Space 2 severed. I mean, I think I might be the only person in here to play that but as far as a Narrative like additional narrative goes that was great. I agree with that Crimson Alliance is fantastic. That was some of the most fun I've had playing in arcade game in a long time. Of course, the Reach anniversary map pack, that's kind of tough to put up there because it was DLC, the DLC for Reach, but it was also part of a retail release. Also, but the retail release was still for, you know, reach like a multiplayer component of Halo anniversary. Yeah, it was still Halo, sort of a weird Phantom Zone to be in, but I mean,

those are great too. I don't know if you like a not objective about that one. Yeah. For whatever reason. Yeah, I mean, we're all huge fans and I think, oh no, it's great. I mean, I love those, I love the same thing. They actually announced this week of the VGA's, they're re-releasing its Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD, which is Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 and 2

redone in like with HD graphics and everything like that. And I'm super, super excited for that. I think that's exactly the crap of those games. I think those are the last ones of those I played like I played Tony Hawk 1 and I played Tony Hawk 2 and I don't think I ever played anything beyond that. I made up to, I think, see, there was, it was 3, 4 American wasteland and then like two or three others. I think Project 8 was last when I touched and they released, you know, ride with the board

that Bernie H.H. had on. I was a huge fan of that franchise back in the day. That was great. Great I played I played Tony Hawk Pro skater 2 in my dorm room at UT Actually take it back my friends were playing it on my dreamcast while I was editing our short film We were working on and that's actually where I became another like they were busy playing and I was like Oh, guess I guess all of it is this movie and then and now they're all pros skaters Now they're all you know married with kids and have lame jobs Okay, so that's I guess let's let's cut to the chase here which one I would you think you would pick Jack? Oh God Between severed and comes in alliance for me I

I'm leaning towards severd. Yeah. I think for me I'm kind of torn between Portal 2 and... Although... What? I don't know. I really like what you must die, but I like it so much I must think something's wrong with me. Oh yeah. I was gonna say I'm torn between Portal 2 and Crimson Alliance myself. We have a big divide here. Bernie? What about you, Bernie? What do you feel? What are you feeling for DLGC?

What are you two? Oh my God. I'm gonna go with Reach, anniversary, map pack and Crimson Alliance. So we have almost, all right, so we've got two Crimson Alliance. Oh, we have three for Crimson. So we have three for crimson alliance We have three for comes the line. Yeah, because I said I said severed in crimson lines Gus said All right, all right wait

Yeah, I said severed but he said he said I said severed in crimson lines Joel said severed and orcs orcs must die No, I'm on the island there So put another one next to severed in it there. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Joel Joel had or Xmas dying from the lines I think we need to bring in a third board Joel and I both said severed Joe Joel and I both said severed but you that's three for him. Wait. Oh, no, sorry, bro Okay, Bernie me and you said comes Alliance. There we go So that's two four We need to bring in Arthur and her

Arthur Anderson Miller Well, oh, you're counting that's the L in arrival. Oh Did the exact same thing when I was counting. How come your ones and your elves look exactly the same? It's a Roman New World. We got to take a photo of that. It's Crimson Alliance. You should take a photo of that. Okay then. I guess we have a circle. Is everyone okay with that? Majority winner is going to be Crimson Alliance. I'm okay with Crimson Alliance. People are also this getting political because they're trying to buy sway. Now, I'm not. That is true. The multiplayer map pack and Crimson Alliance are both made Also this is getting political because they're trying to buy sway

That is true the multiplayer map pack and Crimson Alliance are both made by our friends here in Austin What made by certain divinity here in Austin All right Circle there we go circles. That's it. Alright, congratulations. Congratulations. I realize this is the power. This is a dry race marker. This is permanent. This is as official as it gets forever.

So what we have left with game and we have internet video. So internet video next. I say internet video. So we had listed cat versus hair dryer. Look at me now covered by Carmen. I wrote Igor cat, but I think it's actually Frankenstein cat. Brush with death by quarter digital, Friday by Rebecca Black. The drunk guy folded down the steps and

in the thread, you know, in the form of the website people were suggesting connectors. Yeah, the connectors video that you did Truck test uh, portal no escape and of course we just talked about the wallet world rap Wow, I have my pick out. I know exactly which I know exactly which one I've got picked out I it's there. It's it's it's a hundred percent for me. I know Joel's got cad versus hair That's what I have. I have Cat versus Hair Dryer. The Cat versus Hair Dryer, I didn't hear about it until literally the last podcast.

And that's, to me, that doesn't mean it's like, Cat versus Hair Dryer has everything. It has one thing versus another thing. So you've got conflict. It has a cat. It doesn't have resolution though. It has a cat. Does it have resolution? No, it has a resolution who wins the class satisfied viewer

Man, I don't know man Chuck test was great, but he went to that internet class. So it's right We're I was he proved for that like you you said this it wasn't that great a video I was pretty I'm with you. I mean you're're just, you're just, you like, you like, I mean, honestly, you like squirrel. I think if I had to pick, I hate to say it. I would pick Friday. That's where I would lean.

God dang it. As much as I hate Rebecca Black. Such a pervasive video that went everywhere. It was extremely pervasive. It was genuinely weird. Like people couldn't put their finger, it was genuine, it was weirdness. It was so polarizing too.

It was polarizing. I don't think there was anyone who... Oh no, it was polarizing. There's some people do that ironic love. Like, oh, it's so funny. He's like, no, no, it's terrible. No, no, it's so funny. Like, no, we have some people in our office

that are like that. And it had a staying power and people know about the video. Yeah. I mean, there was a coals, they did that. There's had a staying power and people know about the video. Yeah. I mean, it's why there was that cold. It was a cold. There's a cold. There's a cold commercial. Yeah. The black black. And the girl who did it parlayed it into more stuff. She was in the Katy Perry music video. I mean, she turned it into something. So that's a huge win. The cat only got a hair dryer. He didn't even get that. And even the girl in pink got her own music video too. She did. Yeah. Yeah. Who was her name? I forget what her name

was. Girl in pink. Um, I talked about her. Yeah. That's a video too. She did? Yeah, yeah. Who was her name? I forget what her name was. Girl in pink. I talked about her on the podcast a long time ago. She gave us a call. I should give us a shout out. Right? And her response video. I forget her name though.

The most awkward dancing girl ever. I don't know. God, I'm trying to remember what her name is. It was like, Josie. No, God. I can't remember. I keep wanting to see Rebecca. But, I know that's not Rebecca.

So, yeah, I would lean towards Friday at all that I mean the drunk guy falling down was great But I mean we already had a drunk guy falling down winner that shouldn't that shouldn't except Then we can't judge all drunk guys because of one drunk guy not nine cat. It's like that's is that even That's an animated gift with music behind it. That's not a video Well, I'm gonna vote Friday. I'll I'm gonna vote Friday too Am I gonna be an in like with all of the the winning votes? I don't think for game. I don't think I will be but I mean again, I seems like if we each pick two if I'm forced to pick two then I'm forced to pick cat versus hair dryer and Friday, so.

So, not voting for yourself, Joel? Not voting for... No, it's weird to vote for yourself. I would vote for drunk I falls down just because I love it so much, even though it wasn't that pervasive. I just loved it so much. I mean, Chuck Test said I saw everywhere, so I'd say maybe that, but yeah, drunk I falls down, I love it.

I gotta put a vote for Friday too. So let me do that. Drunk at Falls down in Friday are my two votes. So yours would have been there, your sort of been there. What's your secondary deck? My secondary. Probably the Carmen cover. They'll look at me now. That's another one I've watched multiple times. I'll give my second one to this guy. He's giving it to drunk guys falls down. So looks like Friday's gonna win with three votes. Friday wins. Congratulations Rebecca Black. Because I'm sure you don't have enough money as it is to make more of you succeed. I'm sure that you don't know if she's gonna wrap up through our...

Yeah. I know people are gonna be really pissed off about this in the world. That's true. People are gonna be pissed off about this and it seems un I don't know it was it wasn't right. It was one of the biggest videos ever I think absolutely you need to recognize it even if you don't like the song I think even my parents may know what Friday is, you know, my parents don't know what Chuck test it It's a balance, you know, I mean, there's a lot of variables it goes into the video Yeah, yeah, it's not just I you're right I should clarify it's not just a video that got the most views or something like that yeah and it doesn't necessarily

mean this is our favorite video too I mean like there's other videos up there that's rather watch but that's the struggle right because it's like but it's like I'm videos I would I would never I can't watch the video yeah but you have to appreciate what it means, you know. Okay. To our country and our... Alright, this is the big category Gus. So, we're left with game of the year. And we had... Hotly Contains No Ritans?

Put a SAS and screen revelations up there. No, I don't think there were any real Ritans that we hadn't considered all right. I think all of the Ritans were games that we had listed and then eliminated. Okay. So that leaves us with Skyrim, Portal 2, Minecraft, Uncharted 3, and Old Republic.

And I wanna say something about that real fast. Okay. Some people were a little upset that we nominated Old Republic because they say we didn't nominate Minecraft last year because it wasn't out. So I wanna clarify, Old Republic does come out in December 20th. It's out now. Yeah, Minecraft early releases out now, but it is a crashless deal in beta.

This game does officially release this year. Yes, December 20th. I think there was some confusion about that. I've got some confusion on the internet, you say? Yes, I mean, you guys knocked out my three favorite games. You knocked out two last week. So there's only one I have left up there that I'm even get a vote for or so Well, what uh, what are you two my other two? We're back. Oh, well, what are you doing?

I do old Republic and old Republic Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha In fact, they had a single player story where you don't interact with any other being. Here's the thing. It's amazing. The thing is that Portal 2 is awesome in so many ways. Like it's clearly evident to anyone who plays Portal 2 how awesome of a game it is. But all those games are really great. But here's one point that somebody brought up about Portal 2 and it's the replay ability. I mean, I guess you could argue that you could go back through and find quicker ways to go through levels, but I don't know that that is super engaging.

The releasing tools now to make your own portal maps. That's coming on. That's not in, I mean, that's DLC, right? I mean, if that's not even... Yeah, that would be DLC. DLC, right? I mean, if that's not even that would be deal GC. DLGC. Sorry. So I mean, we go to the trouble of creating DLGC, then we should keep in mind that it's not in the game. But I mean, the story of Pearls, you Jesus. So good. I mean, JK Simmons. I mean, JK Simmons would win if we had a best voice actor this year, right?

Like, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I mean, we're doing the formula of picking two, right? I think that one. Yeah, that seems to work. What are your two, then, Joel? Old Republic is one. Okay. That's two votes for our public. I think it's, I mean, you know, and it's funny. I just am portal to and portal to. You just, I just, I had to go through my, I had to go through my own thought process there just to confirm. That was my one. That was my one. So you're just kind of thinking out my one that was my one so you're just kind of thinking out loud I was thinking out loud all right so portal 2 and older probably both have two votes we have two people that I'm sure that and 3 trailer for me what I'm sure to 3 trailers awesome I have played the game I'm a portal to minecraft that's what I would go for all to minecraft no

effects to the people who the people who make older Hope like which is a great game. Well, here's the one thing gets all here's one more knocking against all republic Is it just came out and I haven't sunk my teeth in the game? Yeah, it's an MMO that literally just came out so I mean it's like I Mean I played a lot of the bait. I mean I played through a lot of it But I know there's a lot of other stuff. Oh, no, that's that's for me. I've touched maybe I've touched maybe a lot of the bait. I mean, I played through a lot of it, but I know there's a lot of other stuff. Oh, no, that's the thing for me. I haven't stuck my teeth in it. I've touched maybe, I've touched maybe a third of one class, one of the eight classes in Old Republic,

and I've spent six months playing that. And you can think about the amount of time you've spent with that content. Yeah, I mean, that's the thing too. It's like, I mean, we've had the bait for a long time now, and I've honestly put in months and months of game play already in everything got erased and I'm excited to get back into it and I'm immediately starting again.

Even though everything's gone, I'm like, alright let's do it again. I did that five times. So that says something. We're going to have a little bit of a problem because my two are old Republican on chart three. Alright, so we're going to have to do a runoff between Portal two and and uh, or public and portal two. All right, I think you and I are gonna go or public and I think those two are gonna, I think Jack and I are gonna go or public and I think Joel and Bernie are both gonna go portal two.

Now I'm gonna go or public. You are? Joel's going over public. Wow. All right, with the shrug. I mean, that was not nearly as painful as I was expecting. It was painful internally. Manage to keep it internal, the debate internal. You've been working on paying my money. Wow. All right, with the shrug, I mean, that was not nearly as painful as I was expecting.

It was painful internally. That's managed to keep it internal, the debate internal. You're working on pain management, mm-hmm. All right, Bernie, do you have any say for the final two? I assume we're probably gonna pick four or two over older public. I feel bad, I don't want to make this decision. I really don't want to make this decision.

Well, for what it's worth, your vote doesn't matter. I'm gonna vote for, I'm both a public statement. Okay. Three, four. All right, so no unanimous. There we go. All right. So over public congratulations. You are the Rooster Teeth podcast award 2011 game of the year. That might be the first the first game or the for the we might be one of the first awards that are going to get right after the game comes out. Yeah. Could be. All right. So there we go. Congratulations.

That's that that is the Rooster Tety podcast awards 2011. Should we recap it? Gus? Yeah, so we had a movie Harry Potter and that's the house part too. And some shit. DLGC was Crimson Alliance. Internet video, oh sorry, TV was breaking bad. Internet video was Friday and Old Republic was a game. Awesome. I'm cool with all of those. I'm not upset by any of those. Yeah, I think they're all solid choices. I think they're all really, really solid choices. I know I gave you some shit about Harry Potter, but I was just trying to start some shit. Oh, no, I totally think so. It is important to have shit.

Yeah. Shit's important to have. Why is words spoken by Jolene? Shit is important to have. Can I question on Twitter? That's one of my favorite things to do is whatever Joel says something stupid is just quote him on Twitter. You should just start a text file

like I do with BRR. Yeah, you mean fucking awesome Jack. That's what you mean. What? You mean whenever I say something fucking awesome? Yes. When you say something fucking awesome. By the way, so Jack is no longer

reappearing in the end of the year. So you got anything else? I mean, you, are you, have you been plowing away at more 200 videos? just released that. Did you really? No, you know we we recorded one yesterday. I think it's hilarious. Joel's unsure about it. Yeah, I don't know I just I don't know I don't think it's I don't know. I think it's funny Bernie watch it. He's like what do you think about it? Hey, that's a great reaction So we should make a video of the year What are we talking about? Why do we see? That's a great reaction.

So we should make a video of the year. What are we talking about? Why do we see? I don't know. Why do we talk about that? The new Joel video from yesterday. No, no. No, the new one that he did with the...

Don't say the name of the game. The stuff with the crazy montage. Yeah, no, Joel's funny, man. Joel's on a hell of a roll, so you can't take that away from it. No, I thought it was funny. I won't release it. Joel's unsure. can't take that away from it. No, I thought it was funny I'll release it. You can do it. You can do it. You can do it. You can do it. They're gonna take it with me after this video Are you gonna wire to Puerto Rico? I got a check out a check from Singapore

Today it was awesome You've got a check from Singapore. Yeah What from illegal gambling? Oh, no legal legal. I don't know. Is it legal to get on? It is. Yes. Yeah, it definitely is. I Hope I don't go to do. I why is that illegal? I don't know our country is out of control. No kidding too many This thing to calm down. There's so many so many stupid things in our country. Yeah It's illegal gamble unless you're in Las Vegas and it's perfectly legal to gamble That's legal. I have prostitutes. Oh, it's unless you're in Reno or whatever. I'm just hearing Nevada, but not yes Oh, so it's legal to smoke pot unless you're in

California, and you have a card for it. It's like, why not just across the board? Because they say it in that voice too. Nidio, they do. They do. They do. They do. They're in trouble. But even then like the like the pot thing, they have trouble with that, right? Like, there's dispensaries, but the DEA raids them. Yeah, it doesn't, it doesn't make any. No, it's state in state law, it is legal, but in federal law, it is illegal. So like the feds can come in and say, Oh, this is It doesn't it doesn't make any no it's it's state in state law it is legal but in federal law it is illegal

So like the feds can come in and say oh this is illegal it's gonna law and then the state police are like oh no It's legal but then but the feds override them. So I guess it again It's the ultimate rule of who has the better lawyer at the end of the day. Yeah, how much money do you need? That's how the civil war started you know states rights versus federal right now because a pod not not because who had a better lawyer No, not who has a better lawyer so we'll see I do you think marijuana be legal in your lifetime? Do I think it will well? I mean what do you mean like just a national level? Yeah, like recreational marijuana? You think it'll be yes In this country do you think it'll be will no? I don't think so I Think it might

There may be in like 20 years from now. I don't see it. I don't want to get too political about it. I don't think I'm a political person. There's a thing now where they're trying to reclassify marijuana as a different grade of drug. Like right now, it's classified as like a harmful or something like that, or like it's some special classification, but they're trying to degrade it down to where it will be

in the same sort of like category as like medicinal essentially. It'll be like certain forms of morphine and like volume and a few things like that. Well, I forget what exactly it is. I'm sure I'm way off here, but I know that's like, like basically they're challenging the FDA to say, why is this so bad? And then the FDA is gonna have to either make up something or,

you know, look at the actual facts and downgrade. It's legally classified as a Schedule I narcotic. So it's in the same group as heroin, LSD, MDMA, and methequalone. And they're trying to knock it down to grade two or schedule two. Probably lower than that I would think. Schedule two is still like cocaine and morphine. I think that might be it, because do they use like, again, I might be way off, but do they use cocaine in some medicinal forms? I don't think they did today. I don't think so. I could have sworn I heard something about that, like in super special cases. I don't know, I'm probably on. Yeah, and then schedule three is like in Federmains, Valium, Zannix. That's like prescription stuff. Yeah, okay. like a Federmains, Valium, Zannix. That's like prescription stuff.

Yeah, okay. The schedule four is stuff I've never done. You know, that's your talk of drugs. Mainly think. You remember this past summer, there was that woman who was in the parking garage here in Austin, and she crawled to the ventilation duct and died, like Harry Stakehouse,

I guess they released her autopsy, and I guess she was on, like she was on some kind of drugs. Like the back salts, I don't know if you heard of that. Oh, really? What? Yeah, I guess it's like something that,'s I don't know how you do it or like you smoke it or inject it or something and I guess like beside it's kind of like cocaine slash myth slash Hallucinogenic Jesus Christ. I'm sorry. I'm confused in the bath. I don't understand how this works. I don't know I'm sure there's some process, but it has the word bath salts in it. I'm pretty sure. I'm sure there's some process where they did it too. But it has the word, basalt in it. I'm pretty sure.

I'll double check that. This is pretty crazy. It just goes to show you, somebody wants to get F'd up. There's probably some way. Yeah, there's probably some way. They're going to make a way. They're going to find a way to make it happen. There's some chemical process that you could probably

achieve to get yourself destroyed. And it's always, you always hear that story of like, oh, the lady jumped into the pool with the killer whale to say hi You know it's later like that she was high on PCP. It's like really? Yeah, is anyone surprised? Yeah, I say how did the killer whale It's like oh she was high. Wait, she wasn't level headed at the time. I don't get it. So she had mdpv in her system or methyl methylene in her system or methaline dioxy provolone, I don't know, something.

I guess it's like some kind of designer drug and it's used to make bath salts sold in hit shops. Wow. People will find a way. Is that who is that? Is that the person that's right? Is that the lady who died the pipe? Yeah.

For some reason I think she'd be so good looking Like someone who's on drugs and it gets crazy. Yeah, I put a waste basalt At least the basalt so you're saying waste the basalt So let that be it let that be a lesson everyone if we're of those of you who are familiar with the story What happened? She they found a bot that people were working on. I guess that she wasn't missing, and then she got trapped in some ductwork in a restaurant in downtown Austin.

And she was trying to like get into. She was trying to get into the restaurant, but couldn't make it. Through a duct. Yeah, and I think that was back like in June, I think. Sheesh, man. I guess she used to work at that restaurant. Uh-huh.

So I guess maybe she thought she knew the building or knew like some kind of secret. Oh, no, she was on drugs or knew like some kind of secret. Oh, no, she was on drugs. Yeah, she was on drugs. She was crazy. Yeah, I don't know. How do you get stuck in it?

I don't know. I saw a diagram of it. It's like there was an angle and like she fell and then there was a drop. And it's like she became trapped where it was like too narrow to go forward, but she couldn't get back up and it was too steep to get out. You never see that in the video game. You never see that turn in the movie.

I wouldn't like to think if I got trapped in something like that, I would be able to like contort my body in some way to be able to prop myself up and out. You know? Like if you ever seen like the kids, you're like, Oh, if it's snowing out of your mind, I don't want to.

Well, she was, she was in there for like three days. Like I wonder how quickly she died. Like if she sobered up while she was still in there or what. But, oh God, that must have been fucking terrible yeah that's gotta be one of the worst ways to die ever but you know I'm talking about though like you you think you I'm at a bad hangovers but I can't imagine having a bad hire you know you have bad hangover and you're stuck in a tube you wake up and like why am I in a tomb it's like I really got to go to the bathroom but I'm in a

tube yeah I guess I guess she was missing for about a month before they found her body in there gross. Yeah, that sucks. I did something fun this weekend. Sort of a downer. I went to button on my phone. Oh, yeah, let's talk about button on my phone. So I went to button on my phone, which is the 24 hour film festival that is held by Iniqual News for Harry Knowles is now 40th birthday. Harry Knowles is 40 years old. That's crazy. For those of you who know who?

Yeah, who Harry Knowles is. He is, he's pretty much the original blogger. Like he started keeping a blog back before anybody else that I had ever heard of back in the mid 90s and he would do movie reviews and things like that. And I guess he just raised enough in notoriety to where he got to the point where studio started things like that. And I guess he just raised enough in notoriety to where he got to the point where studio started to notice him. And so he does this thing on his birthday every year where you go to the Alamo, you sit your button and chair and for 24 hours you watch movies.

I think we watched 14 movies in 24 hours. And we saw some pretty good stuff. We saw Tin Tin, which was great. It was awesome. We saw Hugo, which is already out. Yeah, that's kind of weird. That was weird. So it's a combination of movies that are about to come out and then classic vintage movies

that are thematically similar. Something like this probably, right? Yeah, stuff you like, yeah, for sure. And one of the movies we saw was a movie starring Liam Neeson. It was by the guy who made smokeokin' Aces and something else. That's a Joe Karnahan. Yeah, and he made this, uh, he made the movie called The Gray, which I'm gonna say right now, I'm gonna say right now, if you're hearing this, you're gonna look it up, don't,

do not watch the trailer for this movie. And don't watch the trailer trying to figure out why I'm telling you not to watch the trailer. Just don't watch it, don't watch it. It shows some of the better scenes in the movie. Is Liam Neeson being a badass? It's Liam Neeson where essentially the story is that he's a guy who kills wolves for an oil company and it's like in the Arctic. It's like Northern Alaska, not the Arctic, but you know way out there in like Snow Tundra. And so he shoots wolves, you know know to keep the workers safe and then

Very long story short he ends up in a situation where he's at the mercy of the wolves But knows them really well and stuff like that and he's helping other people man easy day, but what do you laugh about over there? It is a great movie. It is a great great movie. It's like he has to make dinner for the wolves and stuff and like do their do their Things with that old story of like a baby left in the wild and the wolves raise stuff and like do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their do their

Yeah, yeah, I mean, it's just like that. I don't know if I'm just to Did you see the movie? I don't buy I don't buy that wolves are a threat to anyone

They should movie frozen by chance. No, that was played about now. It's on earlier, right? Yeah, I did We also saw mission possible for in 70 millimeter. They bust just the eye max. Oh This badass. I do want to talk about mission possible more, but I'm looking at the list here. Did you watch some ghost rider thing? I Heard awesome things about that. I went to a button on a couple years ago, which we know we should have Harry on here Yeah, that's a good idea. Yeah, we went to a button on a couple years ago. I Did and it was brutal and I literally said to Harry I said I admit it you beat me You have cinematically destroyed me and i'm not coming back

and he i didn't go back for two years and thankfully it's very hard to get into thankfully harry was nice enough to let me go back when i applied this year to go again and this year not a single bad movie that's awesome except ghost writer man i don't know what it was ghost writer was made by the guys who made a crank and i just was really yeah and and there was something to it didn't they showed a director's real before they showed the movie Ghostwriter was made by the guys who made the crank. And I just lost it. Yeah.

And there was something to it. They showed a director's reel before they showed the movie. The director's reel was incredible. These guys are maniacs. They're like, they're shooting Ghostwriter on a motorcycle. It's based on a Marvel comic. The director has a camera in his hand. And he's on roller blades.

He's following Ghostwriter who's on a motorcycle. The director's being dragged with the camera By another motorcycle that goes faster than Ghostwriter's motorcycle and then he lets go and that his like Fairy motorcycle pulls away and he goes past Ghostwriter on rollerblades at like 80 miles an hour That's pretty Scrared fucking crazy. Yeah, I mean I want to I they should put the crew Who wouldn't want to see a movie about that more?, right? And then we saw the movie it was just I'm gonna go I'm gonna tell you straight up. Is this the Nicholas Cage?

I'm not a huge Nicholas Cage fan. I know I'm not into the whole is there such a thing is it? Wait, is it is a Nicholas Cage again? Oh, yeah, oh, I didn't know that I thought it was a new guy No, it is it might be just like an insane person who just like Nicholas Cage map So Matt's on Nicholas Cage behind a visual effects studio one time when he was at LLA. And this was like 10 years ago. And Matt said, wow, you know, he looks like a belt. What? Well, I think people get surprised by actors when they see him in person.

No. Like, I mean, I only shorter than you think they're gonna be. I have to admit, I love Tom Cruise. Seriously, really? Tom, if you're listening, I love you. He was looking a little rough. It was impossible for him. for this is last one right? I think he's handing it off Yeah, there's a handoff to Jeremy Render, right? This is last one I think they had his funeral and they married okay. No, I'm just kidding

Nothing happened with the character for a funeral or anything like that, but is it not happened? I don't want anti-spoil. Does anyone commended enough to the mission impossible characters at this point? Where is like what I like? What's his name? The Scotty from Star Trek Why Simon Pegg I love Simon Pegg's character in mission possible three and he's in four So he's fucking awesome. Yeah, he's so awesome. Yeah, he's great. There's a shot I don't think I'm ruining it here because they've they've you've seen the clips of like

The conquer is doing stunts in Dubai. There's a shot that you have to see an iMac's mission possible for it's directed by Brad bird Do you mention that? Yeah? There's a sandstorm coming in to Dubai and he's chasing a guy because that's all mission possible is it's chasing and punching and He's chased how he's chasing this dude and he comes out of this building and the sandstorm is like about to overtake them It's a low angle looking up the sky of this wall of sand behind him as he's running. It's probably one of the best shots I've ever seen in a movie ever. That's all right. It's so great.

Tom Cruise has run out of the gates of hell. That's cool. I've really been excited about this movie. I'm glad to hear that. It lived up to expectations. Really? Yes. Yeah. Just love three a lot. Three was really good. Yeah, I just love three a lot. Yeah, three was really good

Yeah, but he was awesome. I like three a lot and it filled see more Hoffman as a great bad guy too I'm looking about them. He was a bad guy, but you're not really sure why yeah, he's kind of like evil But I mean he's but he was like a smart people where's like this guy could win, you know, he's like count Duku It's like after a while after you watch the Star Wars movie, you're like, wait a minute, Count Duku's right. He's a good guy. It's like so confusing to Count Duku character. Because they set him up as a villain, but he's the one guy who knows what's going on.

Yeah, yeah. And he's fighting everybody. Yeah, because he knew like that he knew that what Palpatine was trying to take over the whole Republic, right? Right. Like he knew and he was like, no, it's just happening. But he was working with Sidious for, yeah, that was all.

He was a Sith, but he was fighting them to try to stop them. It's like 20 layers deep, man. Yeah. It's like 20 layers deep. And then he gets his head cut off immediately. Yeah, yeah. What happens sometimes you know, sometimes you gotta cut a bitch's head up.

Shift to power. But dude, seriously, go see the gray when it comes out. And I'm probably overselling it but then I just I loved it but somebody asked me on Twitter the other day what my favorite book is and I had to I have a weird qualification my favorite book is the first 125 pages of the crossing by Corners and Carthie there's like parts to the book and part one is great and it's weird because it's all about a wolf I might like wolves and just not realize it but it's about a voice adventure with a wolf which you get to the t-shirt and I even say I'd say wolf and that wolf

He's making you laugh because they wolf people see that people's called wolves whoops. Yeah, wow Yeah, yeah, I'm just kidding. Jack by the wolf. You never heard that no, I will say this to I'm gonna Here's how good this movie is how much I like this movie, okay, I wouldn't say it's really a really great great movie Yeah, but I just really responded to you know those movies that are like that um I will now retract my statement that I can beat any animal because I could not fucking take one of these wolves I know I couldn't I'd give it a good shot, but I don't know man. These things are unbelievable Looks like you can take it to the shoulder height dude

Jesus some of these things. Yeah looks like it comes out January 27th January 27th Yeah, I looked it up and don't watch the trailer. I can't express that enough Just go see the movie slowly in me since in it. It's in snow stuff. Yeah, you don't want to know how he ends up in the snow Everywhere far as I say whoo's to me that movie reminds me of the commercial of the guy watching the TV in one room Oh, yeah, yeah, if you've seen that commercial you've basically seen the movie. Are you not gonna use that you're gonna go for that next year? I'm gonna go for the commercial. I'll go for the great because that was a great commercial. Yeah and then he gets pizza. Yeah. I'm un-missified by all this. I'm

trying to think what else we saw. We saw Ticker Taylor's soldier spy. Totally forgettable. Yeah, I mean It's it they handed out supplemental material For the plot after we watched it and I was like okay now I understand some of it that is a that's bizarre There's a fucking confusing movie. It had a chart. I got I was I received a chart. It's it's it's on the level of primer then No No, cuz I don't want to rewatch it. I wanted to rewatch primer. Primarily, at the moment, at the end, where you're like, oh, what? And then you have to go

back and watch everything. I'll listen to Book of Eli as well. Yeah. Yeah, Tinker Taylor, Soldier, Spy, did not have that. So you also saw... I was super excited for it, dude. It's a Gary Oldman British spy movie. Oh, it's awesome. Sounds cool. You also saw Sherlock Holmes? Oh, yeah. Yeah, and I saw Gavin's Incredible camera work in Sherlock Holmes. He did a lot of the slow-mo stuff Especially like the forest and whatnot. Yeah Yeah, he talked about going out to the forest do some of that slow-mo shooting So I'm looking forward to that one hanging out with our DJ. I saw porco roso, right? That's a older movie. Yeah, I have to admit you're not allowed to leave

That was the one where I kind of went and hung out in the lobby for a few minutes Oh, okay like 20 to catch a catch a breath. I believe the building. I'm not an anime guy. It's an old studio gibly anime I think I've seen that before it's about a pig wise a plane a fighter plane right a fighter plane. Yeah I Should have stuck around a scene there was an uncle in it, but I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I guess there was. I mean, that pig flying a plane. It just didn't make any sense. There's uncle was probably an old pilot. I didn't identify it. Maybe if I was a pilot or a pig, I'd be able to identify it, but I didn't have either of those in my life. But, uh, yeah, it was really fun. So that's a really fun, cool, crazy event. Yeah, it's a great list of movies. There was four worship people there. They were Brian was there. Our teacher designer Emily was there and Miles was there. I still don't

know how Miles got in. I think I think it Emily got him in. Some like like she had a friend back out or something so he got in. She made the call. See Emily picks up the phone. Shit happy. You know what? I bet he got ice cream too. Yeah. Yeah. We'll see how many ice cream there. He probably did. Did we talk about the the the Zondo screening on the last one? Yeah, yeah, the zombie one. That's such a crazy thing. Yeah, it's so awesome And I also went to last week went to the child's weight dinner. We had a blast doing that. That was great Man, I forgot about that. I bid in one on a painting by Frank O'Connor. You guys got into a I Understand you guys got into a war over that there's a video of that. Yes, there is you post that funny

I lost I'm not gonna post gonna post I bought a copy of doom signed by John Romero and Tim Cook which is awesome and then the guy who donated it was like hey if you went Tim Cook is that right Tim Tim Wells is that right I'm not sure Tim Tim something I figured his last name I want you guy it but the guy who donated it for for the, he was like, hey, if you win that, give it back to me, and I can have Romero personalize it for you. And I was like, okay, sure, I guess. And it turns out this guy, he's been going to child's play. He won the portal, he'll go in last year, that went for like 15 grand. Tom Hall, maybe? Tom Hall, that's who it is.

And so, I ended up just, I'm like, all right, here you go. So I handed him this thing I just purchased for quite a bit of money. And he's like, all right. And then I, you know, he gave me his card. And it turns out he's actually the CEO of a website that Bernie uses all the time. Hey, I use it too. And Gus uses all the time.

It's xe.com. So it's, he's talking to me. He told me that he met this guy. He says, it's xe and I go, xe, no. And he's like, yeah, xe. It's like, it's a currency conversion site. And I said, no, no, no., I said I use that site all the time and Jet or Jack hands me the guy's business card and literally on the back. It says in quotes

I use your site all the time So he must get that everywhere he goes so it's a fucking handy site for converting currencies Yeah, it's totally awesome, but then he message me like what do you want him to say? And I'm like and then I was trying to like, what do I want John Romero to write on there for me? So I spent like, all day yesterday, racking, racking my head. John Romero, I know what you wanted to say. Yeah.

I regret nothing. So I think I settled with, like, good luck in hell or something like that. Oh, I would have said, I would have had him write. Uh, now you're my bitch. Uh, thanks for playing Doom. Look for Dicatana soon I was a Dicatana box that was signed by John Romero that was also being auctioned

I lost I was bidding on that one man what did I go for you know I think that ended up going for like 400 bucks okay what was the most expensive thing that went there the most expensive thing that I remember was the gravity gun for what I'm gonna know is the gravity gun from half life which went for $20,000. If I recall properly.

Well, but then he had some like, you know, 21,000. Remember the guy bid a thousand on himself? That's right, yeah. But then, he didn't know how I could work the dumb fuck. The guy bid 20,000 on it. And then they said, do we hear 21,000? And then he bid 21,000. Maybe he was just trying to be the cool guy.

He was. Yeah, he, you know, it's for kids But there were a couple things that were like they went for like 6,000 like three people were going for it And they're like how about you all pay whatever you all pay the same amount and then all three of you can come Yeah, there's a tour of valve. I think went for 6,500 and they gave three of them. Yeah, so that's you know That's 1950 right there are 19 five. So that's close But uh, yeah, we actually we met the guy who made the gravity gun and he made the portal gun this guy named Volpin Harrison is his name and

Like a villain. Yeah, but yeah, he's really really nice dude and Yeah, he's got some stuff in the works. I don't know if I'm allowed to say what he's working on right now But yeah, it was one of those things where I walked up like I was looking at the guns I can't think school. He's like oh things. I made it. Oh shit You're the guy who made this and I've read his blog before cool. He's like, oh, thanks, I made it. He's like, oh, shit, you're the guy who made this. And I've read his blog before. He has a blog where he just makes replica props for stuff. And it's one of the things you get, you know, start watching, or start reading it in the boom three hours later.

He's like, oh my God, this guy's done so much cool stuff. So I won a copy of the Burning Crusade Collector's Edition signed by the Wild Development Team. And the other thing I want was really boring. I want a copy of Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection. Yes! Was it signed by John Romero? No, it was not signed by anyone.

But it was a good deal. Yeah. That's what you always expect going to a giant charity. Yeah, it's like, holy shit, I can't believe how low this, like, because no one cared about, I guess, everyone wanted the cool, collectible stuff. And this is just like a piece of stuff. Yeah. Oh, well, fuck, I'll buy that. They went through volume. Everyone wanted the cool collectible stuff. And this was just like, well they did. A piece of stuff to go here.

Oh, well, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll buy that. Yeah. There was some cool stuff there. There was a, like a Halo 4 concept art piece that was there that was really, really bad-ass. Did you see the portal to like 80s movie poster? Signed by everybody? Yeah. That was awesome.

Yeah, that sounds awesome. Yeah, it was, it was done like in like an old school, like movie, like, you know, where it's like, it's chill walking with like, you know, Wheatley behind her. And it has all the names underneath. It was like JK Simmons. Yeah, like when you walked into the silent auction area, it was like on the far right of the wall. It was over by the Halo 4 stuff. And, uh, uh, but, I mean, before the auction, did they have sort of a walk through deal where you could see it's a silent auction.

Well, there's a silent auction where there's things you can bid on and then you can see some of the live auction stuff is on display along the outer edges. You know, it's funny. I kind of like to go to that to actually buy stuff. That's good. I never would have never I never would have never started it now. There's my artwork there that you probably would have been into. Yeah. It's I never think about it on this terms. Yeah.

A bunch of you also gave away a tour of Bungie that I believe came with a voice role in an upcoming unannounced project. Yeah, that's pretty cool. So that's cool. That went for quite a bit of money as well. And then you guys went to the machinima awards. Yeah, then Bernie and I took off from Seattle and down to Los Angeles to the IGA's the inside gaming awards. We're Bernie presented for best animation. And I presented for holding the bar up.

Which was Batman Arkham City. Oh yeah? Yeah for best animation. You weren't paying attention when I presented my award. You jackass. No, I was busy drinking. Yeah. I looked it up to make sure I knew that was fun. I was in the green room. They had some great stuff in the game. I Turner, the guy from Corridor Digital, FPS Russia. FPS Russia, reckless Tortuga was there, which you haven't seen there stuff, you just definitely go watch it, it's very funny. And then there's some of the people I'm forgetting, but there are like three or four other major YouTube channels. I was thinking, man, if a bomb went off in this room, the traffic on YouTube would see

a dent in the audience. We might get out of this recession. Like work productivity. Yeah, exactly. But it was cool though. I had a chance to talk with Toby Turner for a while. Really, really cool dude. Super nice. Very nice dude. Yeah. Might have a bunch of people out there. It's always good to meet like those internet people. And like, you know, it's fun. I worked with him recently and he probably doesn't even know it. No, he does. Yeah, because we talked about the thing you worked on. Oh cool. Yeah because uh, can we talk about that at all?

Well, why do you know? Fuck it. I'm talking about we did we did an assassin's Greek commercial with them where it was like one of his his literal trailer commercials where he it was like him singing. And so I guess we cut it for him. And I think initially like Matt did the voice for it and then sent it to him. We did a scratch track. Yeah, so Matt did a scratch track. And I was talking to him about that. He's like, yeah, he's like, I got the most hilarious. And I was like, oh, that's cool.

And then he redid it with his voice. And I'm sure he added some flourishes or whatever. He did a great job. But it was pretty cool. It was neat. It's one of those things we worked together, but we didn't know we worked together. Or not directly worked together, which is interesting.

But anyway, super nice guy, we should get him on the podcast sometime. We should get lots of people on the podcast. Yeah, you should do your job. Oh man, you know kidding. So yeah, but yeah, Los Angeles is a lot of fun. Brain I rented a nice car, which is fun. Did you not get any car accidents? We were in a Dodge Challenger, I didn't like it.

I just really like it. I thought it's 150 bucks, it's actually 20 bucks more than like the Nissan Central, whatever they normally rent you. So that for 20 bucks I get to drive a Dodge Challenger. I'm curious. Let me tell you something, you put the pedal down in that car, that car goes. It kicks you in the crotch. Unfortunately you were in LA, you probably topped out like what a 20. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Street light to street light. Yeah. That was the problem yeah yeah yeah yeah it was you know I I've been driven like a car with power in a long time I've got a you know an

SUV and so I've got a Prius yeah and that's battery power like Bernie let me drive a couple times is like you know I'm just kind of letting on the gas a little bit it's like oh it's just so nice it's like that car that car like aches for open road man the thing is mean we didn't talk at one point about we should just drive out of Los Angeles drives the desert drive this car because it did feel like that but it probably uses fuel so fast you'd go you'd run out between fueling stations in the desert. You ever been in the private plane like a sessna? No. No. Okay. Sorry we're not. We're not ballers. I feel like I don't think a sessna is baller. I'm not like you know in a private jet. I mean but there's

a weird thing about planes where the visibility isn't what you think it's not like, you know, in a private jet. I mean, but there's a weird thing about planes where the visibility isn't what you think. It's not like in a car. It's like, essentially the engine is too high. So you're like looking up over the engine. And you play a flight simulator, you can see that, especially when you're on the ground, because it's the angle and the tilt of it.

Yeah, same thing with this. It felt like I'm looking at the hood of the car. You know, it's like, my visibility in the car felt like, but I think that's part of the muscle approach. Yeah, I mean, I had a Mustang for a long time. And those same sort of the awards, just like has that big engine up in front of you. So you kind of have to just, you have to, you know,

drive the car enough that you know, sort of distance the car. Like, you've got that big ass truck. I can't imagine driving that truck around me. That ass. Like, I would. You're so apoi, you see everything, dude. But I would hit you so much too. You should see what's like to crash.

To back into a pot. That's really cool that that sensation is awesome Did I ever tell you about the guy's about the time that I met Nicholas Cage going back to Ghostwriter look like no So where it was behind a visual effects studio? No, and he didn't look like a belt So this was like right after wild heart came out Okay, and my mom came to visit me in Austin. And I was like, he was Nicholas Cage, but he wasn't like Nicholas Cage. You know how long ago. Long time ago.

And so I was with my, is this the elevator story? Yeah, so I was with my girlfriend. You've told this before we go with it. Yeah, but yeah, so I was with my girlfriend at the time. We're gonna go visit my mom and she was staying at the Driscoll downtown. And so the Driscoll was like a really cool downtown, our hotel downtown on Sixth Street.

And we're in the lobby and I'm with Janet, we're gonna go get an elevator, and do that thing where the elevator doors open, you go to step on, you realize, oh, there's people in the elevator, I'm a dumbass, I should let them out. And so I back up, and the guy who's like, knows to knows with me is Nicholas Cage. And I was like, we just watched Wilde Heart like two nights earlier. I was like, oh my God, I got so flabbergasted. And Joel, you'll appreciate this. I did the one, the two things you should never do.

I told the guy who he is, you know? And I got it wrong. I looked at the face and I go, you're Nick Nolte. And his face, like when I recognize you, I was like, what is it about Nick Nolte? He goes like this, Nicholas came, because I guess it's a Nicholas that I screwed it up you know mixed up he goes he gives us big bright smile space and then when I said Nick Nulty goes what like the fuck is wrong with you when you walked away and I remember when he walked away we've got the elephant and I go to

Janet I go that guy was kind of a dick and then we're halfway up the elevator I'll have whipped to my mom's phone and go oh god damn damn it. I'm getting a little bit over there. I'm like, I don't know what it is about. Nick Nolte, where he's just interchangeable for like the name of getting an actor wrong. He's always the name. When you get the name of an actor wrong, it's Nick Nolte for some reason.

Oh, yeah. I don't know what it is. It was like, I remember it was like 1994 or something. And you me and Matt were at a bar on Sixth and we were looking down and we're like, oh, it's Brendan Frazier We were getting ready for this Yeah, we were like and this is when we were getting ready to shoot the movie and we had business cars and all that stuff We were like oh my god this bread and Frazier well we should somebody should

We were like oh my god this brain of razor. We should somebody should Somebody should go down there and like so we should like go down Kim a car or just like making sure my around like I was like fuck this. I'm like like stop it I'm gonna go down there. I'm gonna like Somehow get brain of razor So I go down there and you guys were on the upper deck and I go down there and I'm like and the same thing happened like I Like no one was acknowledging that it was him the bar was packed and like he came to me I came to him and our eyes like met and he had that moment of like oh like he's excited So like oh, that's that's great a fan. He's gonna acknowledge me. We're gonna have this moment

I'm a cool I'm bringing Frazier. I'm a cool guy. I have a big smile on my face I don't know what I'm just a hand hand him the card and turn around and walk away. That's all he did because that's all I was like it's brain freezer I don't have fun with him. I don't know. And it was like I walked away and it's like I remember you and Matt reconstructing the moon. After I turned around and walked away and it was like he smiled. He took the card. You turned around. he looked at the card, the smile drop, looked at the card again, and then took the card on the floor. Oh! Yeah, but that point in 94, he'd only done, the only big movies I see on here were like, In Sino Man and Airhead. Is it something like that?

Bio-dome? Is it Bio-dome anywhere on the air? No, that's poly-shore. Is it poly-shore? Yeah, poly-shore? One of the Baldwin brothers. Yeah, it's even though... Actually, Tnacis D is in Bio-dome. Well, watch out, Tnacis D. I was before the Mr. Show, I think. Oh, oh, oh, Tnacis D is in Biodome. Well, watch out, Tnacis D.

I was before the Mr. Show, I think you did. Oh, oh, oh, Tnacis D. I was thinking something else. I was thinking, uh, who's the other D that's a rapper? Every D. Every D. Yeah, I was thinking. I really went to that and Nick Noltey. So, uh, one thing for doing right now for Everett Vs. Blue is I've been working on, uh, writing sessions with our new co-writer, Mr. Eddie Revis. He's helped me do some punch ups and

big thing about season 10 is he's very knowledgeable of the backstory as is Mr. Monty Oom, which is always great. And so he's helping me do fact checking just as we kind of wrap up some of the stories we've been telling for a long time. That's a real job, right? Yeah, it is. It is. I look up one time on the RVB Wik, and I think there's like some of like 380 pages dedicated to Red vs. Blue. And there's, I mean, that's more than we have episodes. Yeah. So there's a lot of, yeah. Any time you're this, yeah, there's a lot of stuff. They had a producer on Angel One Time, and they're like, because they needed like the guy or whatever to like, no stuff.

And so like for the first, he sat down for like three days solid and just watch episode after episode after episode after episode after episode And then they found that I didn't have enough money and then they fired him So you got paid to watch angel for three days and I was it anyways. I just solely unravel your Hey, we should we should mention a barber works here now Yeah, why don't we bring barber into say hello? Let me see you a grabber. Yeah, so barber just moved here from Canada. She's, uh, she got her visa and is, uh, in working here in the office now. It's always weird to me to see Barbara outside of the context of snow. Like she just exists. Like, it's like she's just

like snow around her. Well, she's so pale. It's like a natural camel flies. She's like eyes. Just like completely translucent. It's Barbara and I want to say, she's way too overdressed for this office. Yeah, she is. No, no, no, no, keep it up. Someone has to be arrested. Absolutely. Sit down, Barbara. Yeah, I'm on a mic and say hello to everyone.

So Barbara, for years and years, was one of the top members of our community site. In fact, the day that we hired, she took over the number one spot on the community site. And now she's not on the list anymore, right? No. Because she's casting crew. Lean in. What once you get cast and crew status, you get removed from eligibility being on that list? Yeah, suck it.

That's one more day than we've had this year. Yeah. Well we had we had we had a half a day of snow in the

whole case. It's going more than you've gotten in the past 10 years. Provined. I would assume. You're one day. Yeah. Our one day. That's probably true. Yeah. It was stucky. No, screw that.

When I moved from DC, I remember I moved from DC to Texas. I was like, what is this stuff? I didn't eat the text next and then I was like, well now I have to move to Texas. That wasn't the way it worked. That was how it worked. Taco Bell kind of is not very... You haven't had

text makes since you've been here yet. You've had home-slaughts. See his pop doties. Garcia's... she should see... Or a lot of you. Let's go there for a moment. Someone someone. Someone's on your face is a little frightening. This is like you look, you have like a thousand years here. Everyone should just have that. So you're no longer, I understand you're no longer Ottawa fan. What now you're a stars fan, right?

No, you'll never take the girl out of Ottawa. I'll never not be an Ottawa Senators fan, but I might. That's a hockey team, by the way. Yes, sorry. Hard to throw. Fans don't do her. But I might become a stars fan in addition. What's a hockey team, by the way. Yeah, sorry. I'm proud of you. I'm proud of you. But I might become a stars fan in addition.

Really? Finally. Well, I think we picked a formula. 10 to 14 and they in the final was 10 to 13 so we were one point away from having a spot on prediction which is pretty cool or EA was or EA was and you know we edited it no and added audio in that thing come on so anyway well done thank you very much well Barbara welcome aboard thank you we expect great things from you
