He's fine I told you why I told you why he puked all over everything is because the goddamn idiots gave me a whole bag of catnip it's like an amateur hour is that medical marijuana oh bullshit whose decision was that to give him catnip was it really yeah, Jared also put on the entire bag of catnip for him oh my god
Starting point is 00:02:19 it's so nice oh he's so in love with it I'll think of a picture of him for the linked up he's completely out of it it's uh... linked up completely out of it got off his face so yes so guss is making us find a home for joe the cat and i am uh... i'm not too happy
Starting point is 00:02:33 about it well yeah joe uh... joe uh... causes a lot of problems you know i gotta say something uh... there's a thing that happens at russia chief when people start working here it usually is associated with production and the fact that we have free food all over the place here is that people tend to gain about fifteen to twenty pounds when they first
Starting point is 00:02:51 start working here joe the cat is no exception i i treated a photo not treated but i sent a photo to the guys uh... in the annex or as you call it the annex the back lot there's the building where we shoot the podcast and that's where joe lives i sent a photo joe looks skinny as a rail he looks like a happy little kid in it now he's a big fat fuck
Starting point is 00:03:10 that's one of us one of us it's for his own health that he needs to leave so you're really that he's not vomiting and so he goes back down to a healthy weight there's two people in this company who hate Joe the cat and it's you and Matt you're slash there might than eight people who hate that cat. Who hates cat? There might be two people who like that cat. No, I love the cat. No, the cat has like a g hot out on everybody here in the back.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Like he there was there was the there was pissing on backpacks. It was throwing up everywhere. It's actually branded. Yeah, but he targeted Brandon for like three weeks. The worst thing is when I come back to and I need to plug a USB cable into a computer. I have to be careful not to touch the floor because I'm guaranteed that cat has pissed everywhere. It smells like ammonia and cat vomit everywhere. It's so fucking gross. I must not smell it. I think the cat's mine.
Starting point is 00:03:57 It's because you're never in the back. Let's take a vote. Let's take a vote of cat's members on the podcast today. Does Joe the Cat stay? Yeah. All in favor, Joe the Cat staying. I'm gonna say yes, but just because I want to see Brandon suffer. Well, also Joe the Cat votes for himself. So you guys are out voting three to two. So Joe the Cat stays. I hate him to be okay with him staying over here. That's a quorum. Yeah, Joe spent on more. He's been on this many live action podcasts. Does anybody else? It's true. We got to end that. He's a staple. He's a staple cast member. You can't get rid of them now.
Starting point is 00:04:25 We'll never get rid of them because his hair is all over this freaking couch. We have a couple of events coming up pretty soon. I'm curious to see how we handle the podcast. It's we're going to have people coming and going quite a bit. We have a New York Comic Con. Who's going to New York Comic Con? I want to say that's Matt, Kathleen, Monti, and Ray. Why is a Michael going to New York Comic Con? He He was gonna go, but I think something came up, and he couldn't go after all. What does that mean? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:04:49 That's what I was told. And then we're gonna MCM Expo in London, and I believe that's Jeff, Gavin, and Ben. Y'all be the three-manning it. I think that y'all have a panel at MCM. Oh, do we do? I think they're launching like an internet portion of the Expo, and I think they're calling it vidfest.
Starting point is 00:05:07 Sweet. I think the YouTube is going to be up there. Let's get in trouble and do the panel. Is MCM expo, is that Comic Con London? Is that also called Comic Con there? No. No? I went with Gus last year.
Starting point is 00:05:17 I might prove you wrong. That was a good time. That was horse shit. Did you guys show up and none of the merchandise showed up? I mean, that's not even a convention. It was a good time. None of the merchandise showed up. And then, you know, even a convention, it was a good time. So none of the merchandise showed up. And then, you know, we had to deal with customs.
Starting point is 00:05:27 It was stuck in customs. They didn't get the clearance forms. The time it was like this whole multi-layered fuck up. So this year, we thought, we're going to send our stuff way in advance. It'll get there plenty of time. What is it called, Comic Con? London MCM Expo, London Comic Con.
Starting point is 00:05:42 That's what it's called. Maybe Comic Con isn't a strong brand in the UK. It's Comic Con. Comic Con is not a brand. It's just a company. New York Comic Con is not affiliated with San Diego Comic Con. No, they're totally, they're just, oh, Comic Con. Well, this is really confusing.
Starting point is 00:05:55 It's really confusing. Comic Con. Comic Con is not a cohesive brand. It's not? No, it's just a generic term. That's bullshit. So San Diego Comic Con is something. New York Comic Con is something fucking New York Comic Con is something,
Starting point is 00:06:06 fucking Austin Comic Con is actually run by wizard world. Really? And does it put like they're not affiliated with or whatever? I couldn't believe when I found out that Comic Con, what we call Comic Con, which is San Diego Comic Con. That's hard to say a bunch of times.
Starting point is 00:06:20 That is a non-profit organization. No way. Yeah, dude, that's pretty cool. No, why is that cool? What is cool about that? I don't know. I just think that I know. So when you hear non-profit use, who is charitable? I assume they're not as big a big. I don't know. Yes. Prophets equals. Prophets are dicks. So okay, we got socialist, the miles Luna's School of Economics. For the people over here. Oh, where's your glass? For the people.
Starting point is 00:06:47 I'm a glass. So yeah, so, but this, and then this year, so we decided to send our stuff to London way in advance. Guess what, it's caught up in customs again. But look at it, we have a month to figure it out. So the bad thing is about last time is that it all made it to the country and it was sat in customs ready to clear customs, but then they went home and said,
Starting point is 00:07:04 yeah, so I can safely say here that these are what we're causing us the most trouble. We sent Gripballs to London. You're mainly bombs to London. If they get through customs in time in the next three weeks, these will be for sale in MCMX-P0N-L. Is it really the Gripballs causing the problem? Gripballs are causing the problem because they came from overseas where they were manufactured and it's like dealing with three countries importing fabrics.
Starting point is 00:07:28 It's like really it's not. Yeah, there's always weird rules. It's not crazy, but it's not because it's a bomb, right? It's not because it's a bomb. And we're also going to Australia. We're going to supernova in Adelaide and Brisbane. And who's going to that? Kathleen Chris and Carrie. They're doing, Chris, and Carrie, Carrie.
Starting point is 00:07:45 They are doing, Chris and Carrie are doing something really cool, which I don't know if we can talk about that. No, we're not talking about that. But they're doing something really cool associated with being down under, which is going to be a lot of fun. So with all these people coming to go in, I'm curious to see how the podcast is affected. If you're thinking about going to any of those events and you can, I would say New York Comic Con in particular might be a good one to go to because we'll be showing something that we've never shown before at New York Comic Con. Do we have a panel at New York Comic Con? No, we're on the waiting list. Okay. So if one of the other panelists, you know, then we're in. We're like the vice president. We're ready to step in. Let's find
Starting point is 00:08:20 like the most like company that's in the most tentive position and try to like run them out of business really quick so we can get a panel So we are booth 1106 at New York Comic Con which is pretty much the exact same place where we were last year if you saw There how are we going to show that thing if we don't have a panel? I don't know ask that question all around an iPhone or no, no, no, no, no, we'll figure something out We'll hang out at a bar. Yeah, did we ever talk about we're a convention Probably a year ago where we went on an adventure to get ice from an ice machine No, we never talked about that Out we were we were like super drunk and we needed ice
Starting point is 00:08:54 Yeah, so we were drinking in Gus' hotel room it was towards the end of their convention and we needed ice and Gus for some reason is in his boxes at this point Jesus hotel room So he walked there's no ice machine on our floor So we have to walk all the way up some stairs to an ice machine. We walk up two flights. Two flights of stairs.
Starting point is 00:09:09 I've got a video of all of this. I don't know if we've never posted it. No. Maybe one day. Artie life. And so Gus is like, just stand there for eights, just getting all the sizes like me.
Starting point is 00:09:19 And then I'm bored like filming stuff, like filming his boxes. And then, no, regular speed stuff. And then we walk back into the hallway and I'm like, Gus, go run to there and back, give me the ice, just run there and back in your boxes and you get, like, it was running off and I just see him like, disappearing down the hallway. And then he, like, does this thing with his arms and spins around and comes running back? And I'm, we're both drunk at this point.
Starting point is 00:09:40 I start running towards him, but I've got the ice. So it's like, I'm like, are we like getting closer and closer. I slam into him and the ice just goes all over. The most satisfying sound I've ever heard is that collision and I just like crunch. I would just love to see that from the peephole of the door that we collide and imagine seeing that. Just two days. I'm trying to come and I do that. I don't know. I like this. This is why. Yeah. Like you said I was already in my boxers and then about five minutes after go back to the hotel room we started wrestling And it's like the next day I had to fly yeah, yeah, the next I had to get on a plane and I got to the airport
Starting point is 00:10:17 And I was like, why does my back hurt? The bathroom at the airport and my back which is bruised shed giant well It's all over my back cuz this fucking asshole was punching me. Do you bruise easily? No, I do. Because we used to go, remember we used to go play paintball, you and I. We would go to these like three day long scenario
Starting point is 00:10:32 paintball events where we would be out like the middle of the night, like crawling to the forest. And some people would bring tanks out there and these like ferrets and jeeps and all this stuff. I'm afraid of some kind of military vehicle on the day it's gonna be of military view that's gonna happen. I think it's way more adorable.
Starting point is 00:10:46 You also have a first wave of just small rodents and small rodents. A motion sensing automated defense turrets. Yep. So it was like, imagine like the tripod of those cameras are on, but it was a paintball gun on it and a motion sensor. And if it's since motion, like the gun would whip around,
Starting point is 00:11:00 good, good. I mean, just start automatically shooting paint. We should buy ten of those and set them up in the lobby of russian so you guys are shot every time but aliens don't they set up turrets like that yeah that's one of the deleted scenes in aliens there's a whole director's cut yeah yeah it's a longer movie better yeah yeah if I were dealing with something like that now
Starting point is 00:11:22 because I think the final length of rb season 10 is, I want to say, two hours and 45 minutes. It's a long movie. And we're longer than season three. Yeah, it is. Season 10 is our longest one. And we're trying to figure out when we're going to show this thing theatrically. We're probably going to do another premiere night at the Alamo. But we're thinking we should probably cut it down from 2.45 to like two hours.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Well, you've done that in the past. You cut down season three for a New York screen name. So I went to season one also had an abbreviated version. Do you remember that? I think we abbreviated down to an hour. Yeah. Yeah. There was a one hour version.
Starting point is 00:11:52 I think it's like an hour, 35. So it's shorter than that. I think I thought it was like 80. I think they were two times 80 and we hit. There's a 60 minute cut. What do you think? Do you find it hard to edit down your own stuff? I mean, especially with the animation. it's like it is what it is.
Starting point is 00:12:07 You know, I mean, you've edited it down already. The hard part is now there's so much more music in Red vs. Blue. Once you start layering in music, it becomes really hard to edit around that. Right. Really, because so much stuff is time to music. Especially the way music works with this timing to bits of music and stuff like that. Yeah. Yeah, and Jeff Williams as well.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Just cut out all the dialogue, make like one bitch in like music video, that's not like super action. Just cut all the reds and blues stuff, that's the original part. No, don't do that. You can't do that to me. How dare you. How dare you.
Starting point is 00:12:36 You know, that paintball events that we would go to, that's where I established my love affair with night vision goggles, because people would be out there in the middle of the night. One guy had like a I don't know how to describe it is basically like a stick With a TV on it and he would just sit here look and you could it's like it was completely black and this guy was holding like a view Finder for the rest of the world like he's looking around you sit behind him
Starting point is 00:12:57 And he'd look and you see some dude like creeping with a paintball gun and everybody go pop up up and shoot him Yes, I have like dudes with guns behind him like looking at the screen I mean, they see something they don't do it with guns behind him. Like, looking at the screen, I mean, when they do something, they don't like turn and start firing that direction. You make me feel really ghetto. Like, my friend and I had one paintball gun that we shared, and it was literally one of us would take turns shooting at the other one that would like run across the field
Starting point is 00:13:14 and be like, how many times can we hit you? Okay, that's which. And I'm making you feel ghetto, that's ghetto, dude. No, no, no, you're not doing that. You're like, I do like, she said, because you're going out here. You do shit in the house. That's the definition of something shitty. That's pretty shitty. You had one gun in your mouth, where you like a chesa because you're going out You do shit at the top, that's the definition of something shitty
Starting point is 00:13:25 That's pretty shit good one gunning with a mask where you like did you cover your eyes in your mouth? There was a time where we just were like the speed of assuming goggles because that was all we had at time We weren't dumb That it was just poor How's that going on? Well I mean it's you know it's not as dumb as going without We get in the mouth of the painful What's up?
Starting point is 00:13:42 Well like at your high school like when the defense came out of the field, they have to change helmets with the offense. Like trade-off, they have to share helmets with somebody. Like the wide receiver had to hand off to the tight end. Do you want to let the top of guy that would go to football games? Let's be ready. Yeah, I thought this was that about Miles. He knows nothing about sports.
Starting point is 00:13:56 We were talking about, he didn't know who the owner of the Dallas Maverick was. Oh, I did. And you did, whatever. I don't know sports. I have a, my roommate is like a huge sports fan and like he'll go out and you know He'll run a few errands and he'll leave and he'll leave like football on the TV and then when he gets back There's like anime and I have like my Sega in my hand. It's just like I don't know. It's we get on fine
Starting point is 00:14:16 But you're like the odd couple. Yeah, pretty like a From football to anime. That's a pretty barge all I'm talking about your bruise from football to anime, that's a pretty barge ball. You're talking about your brews. People are always amazed when I tell them this, but I've never had one. What? In my life. You are a brewed-in-a-world of shit.
Starting point is 00:14:31 I think I jacks on the podcast. The other day, I, for many reasons. We were doing arwoo, and I was, I decided to climb up on my chair and then onto Jeff's shoulders. Obviously. And I fell off backwards and I landed on the arm, like I went from the height of Jeff's ceiling
Starting point is 00:14:45 to on the arm of the chair on my shoulder. Really hurt for four days. But there's no bruise. There's nothing ever visible. It feels like it's bruised, I guess, but there's no, there's no, there's no, how do you know what a bruise feels like if you've never had one?
Starting point is 00:14:57 It feels tender like it hurts. We're gonna bruise you. No, you're right, you can punch me right now. Let's not talk about, why are you, every podcast we talk about hurting you in some way. We're not invited. Yeah, I know you did. No, we're not doing it. But have you ever had a headache?
Starting point is 00:15:15 From drinking, yeah. I went the first 25 years of my life and I never had a headache. I never even had a hangover. Did you get to die like doing your first headache? People would talk about headaches and I thought like, oh, I guess I've, I think I've had one and then I finally had just a regular headache and I was like, oh, yeah, it's what it is. You were like Bruce Willis and Unbreakable. You're like, I guess I've never been sick. I've never really been hurt. Can I say, I haven't gotten sick in a long time. But you had a G-Six. You fun it. Fuck you because all you guys got sick. And I knew it. Michael got sick. He was like patient zero.
Starting point is 00:15:44 And then everyone around got sick. It around like two weeks at this point yeah just sick too right everyone sick you see it was such a disgust are you sick I'm fine yeah it's that healthy British immune system no I thought you were one of the guys who went down I thought you had a I had a sore throat for like a day you're like yeah I can't be bothered what I always find this is mental because sometimes if you feel like you're getting sick you just start feeling it and And then you give in and you become sick, but the last few times I've had that feeling. I've just been like I'm not doing it. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna do it this time and I'll skip it
Starting point is 00:16:15 I'll get like a bit groggy for a day and then it's straight back up. You really? I'm in sick for years. You would make the world's shittiest doctor Because that's what you do for your vice like oh you're getting sick. Yeah, just don't do that You can kill hiccups that way Have you ever done that way you just I imagine someone coming to you and they say doctor free I have cancer and you go I got that stop If you think of the next hiccup, if you wait for it, it will never come.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Absolutely not true. No, no, it's true. It's not true. Sometimes you'll think about something else you'll be talking, it'll be like, you just get it, it'll just interrupt you. If you do nothing else, other than focus just on the next one and just be ready for it, just be ready to pound,
Starting point is 00:17:02 like it will never happen and then you'll never have hiccups. What exactly would you pound? I don't know, just be ready to like, Just be ready to pound. Like, it will never happen, and then you'll never have hiccups. What exactly would you pound? I don't know, just be ready to like, not be caught off guard by it, because the hiccup always catches you off guard. You know how they always say you can scare someone with hiccups and they stop the hiccups? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:16 One time I saw my dog at the hiccups. I'd never seen a dog with... I was like, I was like, he's got the hiccups. And he was like, just sitting there on the floor like, hiccuping, so I jumped up and started screaming at him. And he started running around all panic. Didn't hiccup again? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:17:30 I don't know. I'm scared to death. God, mentally, for life, but I'm scared to death. He doesn't look like he had him anymore, but you know, whatever. I can cheer my hiccups. If I get hiccups, I just drink water in a certain way. I don't know how to drink water. I'm just outside of the cup.
Starting point is 00:17:41 Nope. I just drink it and swallow in a certain way, and my hiccups are gone. Every single time. That's what she said. No, she never said that. You don't have the other side of the cup. Nope, I just drink it and swallow it in a certain way and my hiccups are gone. Every single time. That's what she said. No, she never said that. She never talked about her hiccups ever. Hey, I want to point something out. So last week on the podcast, we started taking questions from the audience and interacting
Starting point is 00:17:56 with the audience via chat. That was a big mess. That was crazy. So we're not doing that. We actually have Barbara right over here off camera, off screen. And she is on Twitter right now I think it's on screen to telling people to tweet to pound RT podcast Rt podcast hashtag RT podcast. Why'd you call it pound? It's a pound symbol. It's a pound sign
Starting point is 00:18:15 It's weird because on the British keyboard that thing isn't there, but it is a pound But the currency of a pound really confused when you call it pound. I think you're talking about you don't have that that hashtag thing We do it somewhere else. somewhere else it's somewhere else on the keyboard yeah we don't have the pound symbol anywhere no I just found out on the iPhone you can hold down letters to get other options yes you can hold down I guess you wouldn't need to because everything's dot com but in England it's all dot code dot UK and stuff like that so you can hold down dot com and it will give you dot code you can't that's pretty cool the British keyboard I guess it does that work for the
Starting point is 00:18:44 US one I guess you don't work for the US one? If you hold it, it's commagacy.net.org. I think you know that. I always miss that dot com key. It's only on there sometimes, so I always miss it. My friends started correcting the word the, but the E has a weird accent about it. Life I missed type of direct corrects it to the right word, but with the wrong accent. I wonder how that's done. Do you think someone set up an auto correct for you?
Starting point is 00:19:03 I know, he did that online. Didn't he? We gave each other keyboard shortcuts we wouldn't allow to look at. We played shortcut roulette basically where he gave me his phone and I set up shortcuts in his phone and mine was brilliant and it hit you like four months later. Yeah. You changed the word party to a three-some with a dude I just met. So he said, do you want to go to, because I wanted to pick a word that ended a sentence
Starting point is 00:19:24 typically. What else you have to do tonight? I'm going to your party. It was, if you wrote party, it changed it to three, some with some dude I just met. Do you want to come along? And unfortunately, when it came up four months later and it finally hit him, he was texting me. So I was like, God damn it, because I wanted him to text. You know, when something's funny on text and you do ha ha, but a lot.
Starting point is 00:19:44 He just did like ha ha ha. Why are there two lines of it? My phone auto-correction out, if I do more than three ha's, it auto-corrects it to eight ha's that are all capitalized. And that must have been what he's got. It does mind you. Ha ha ha ha. Space, aha.
Starting point is 00:19:58 Do you know why we discover that you can make shortcuts on your phone? Because this annoyed both just and I It when we're playing MMOs when you're gonna meet someone in a different part of the world You say I'm on my way, but the abbreviation for that is omw on my way Well on the iPhone if you type in omw it expands it to write on my way, but it gives it an exclamation point It makes you sound really enthusiastic It also capitalizes the o and on So if you're at like um
Starting point is 00:20:25 OMW it's like um capital O on my way. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. Never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. Never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. Never. I never. I never. I never. I never. I never. Never. I never. I never. I never. I-of-the-get rid of it. Out of credit, I just decided to use my version of spellings whenever I'm like drunken out on the town. If I spell tonight, one letter wrong, it turns it into T-O-N-I-G-T, all caps again. I only use all caps if, like, typically when I'm down town with people. I feel like I have to yell over my phone because it's really loud. Do you know how to caps lock your phone? I didn't know that existed there. I felt like a genius. Oh, how do you do that? I phone. Double tap the shift and a phone? I didn't know that existed Double tap the shift and it caps You don't know that? Yeah, yeah, I totally do that It's impossible to shift a on that keyboard because it just detects like the same push I feel like some sort of
Starting point is 00:21:18 You shift you know that right these tap shift and then tap it what What are you doing? Are you going like this? Yeah Hold it down because my thumb is I've holding down shift and it's so close to the a I can't press a Yeah, I thought that's what you're mind look here watch shift a That's it. Yeah watch shift. Hey, that's it. Yeah. You're going like this. Man, man, man. That is so dumb. That is unbelievable. That's, that's awesome, even for you, Gav. Okay. So I, I added a bunch of shortcuts to my phone once I found out about that. So
Starting point is 00:21:57 pretty much like I find when I'm driving and I want to text people, I tend to send like 80% the same text. Like I'll be right there in five minutes. Or if I'm in Los Angeles, I'm only about half an hour late because of traffic. So I just put all three letter symbols, like CCCAAA, all that, and it expands something. Like CCC on my phone is, sorry, I'm driving the car right now and I can't text.
Starting point is 00:22:22 I just expand that. So it's just really quickly I can tap out of text while I'm driving, which I know is bad, but what the fuck you do. You have Siri to talk. This tape. Yeah, I thought you guys were big fans of Siri when you. Who the fuck is a big fan of Siri? When can you see that, everybody was making a big
Starting point is 00:22:34 fucking deal about Siri and it made me really bad with my iPhone. Because they showed it when you're trading with your friend and like taking turns, he would hold the phone and you would take two and then you would trade back. No, but Siri's awful because this is a total. We were trying to find out the biggest first world problem. And I think up until this one, I said the biggest first world problem is I can't find businesses that will take $100 bills like they won't change them. That's
Starting point is 00:23:01 the biggest first world problem. But now my new one is, Siri doesn't work as well when it's connected over my in-car Bluetooth system because when I dictate to the microphone on the car, it doesn't understand as well. That is the ultimate first world problem. But no, Siri's a piece of shit. She's pretty good for making appointments and setting alarms, but if you want to dictate to her and have her, you know, Transcribe a text you want to say. Yeah, I find it weird. Well, it's a real voice. Don't do it. It can read texts well. If you get a text and you're driving
Starting point is 00:23:39 Yeah, but does it do that? Yeah, yeah, mine sounds like a really push dude. Yeah, you have the British. You have the male one? Uh-huh. I have to read my text like a commoner. What do you have? I have the iPhone 4. Oh, we sell. OK. It's awesome.
Starting point is 00:23:55 I had a flip phone from when I was 16 to a year ago, and then I got the iPhone 4. I'm this flip phone. I'd like to be able to hang up on something. That was satisfying. Did you upgrade to iOS, iOS 6? Yes, I did. Are you happy about that?
Starting point is 00:24:09 For the most part, yes. I haven't had any problem with maps like most other people. The thing I'm most unhappy with is the podcast app is broken. And when you listen to an enhanced podcast, like the Rischthee podcast, the pictures we put in and the links we put in aren't working. That sucks. Yeah. Yeah. So, but if you, if you, if you, if you used to get the audio,
Starting point is 00:24:28 or if you listen to it in iOS 5 in iTunes instead of the podcast app, then it still works. It's just in the podcast. So the app will technology that they invented and pushed doesn't work in the app on the product that they invent and push. So that's anything that's going to be used. Wait, wait a fucking go. What they've also taken away is you, I can scroll down on all the podcasts that I invent push. So that's the only thing that's going to be used. Wait, wait a fucking go.
Starting point is 00:24:45 What they've also taken away is I can scroll down on all the podcasts that I've subscribed to. There's no button for like download new podcasts. Yeah, you tell you didn't subscribe and it would like get all of them. But I just want to see where the podcast is and I change. On the other one it'd be like just get more episodes and flip around and you'd have all the podcasts to pick which one you want. You can do that.
Starting point is 00:25:04 How? You just go to the podcast, you click on it and then there's like a little down button, the podcasts to pick which one you want. You can do that. How? You just go to the podcast, you click on it and then there's like a little down button, you just click on the one you want. It's an arrow pointing down, literally. Today's podcast is all about to have a whole new one button and push another. You know, you can make phone calls on this too, right? It's amazing. Let me read this thing here.
Starting point is 00:25:19 I want to remind everyone that this podcast is brought to you by Audible.com, the Internet's leading provider of audio books with more than 100,000 downloadable titles across all types of literature, and featuring audio versions of many New York Times bestsellers. For our listeners, Audible is offering a free audio book to give you a chance to try out their service. One audio book to consider is The Road by Cormick McCarthy. For free audio book of your choice, go to audiblepodcast.com slash rooster teeth. That's audible audible podcast dot com slash rooster teeth that's audible podcast dot com slash rooster teeth say i give a that's what that's why uh... mark cuban came up in conversation before the podcast
Starting point is 00:25:53 mark cuban's company i forget the name of the city's like thirty four thirty four productions or something like that they were the people who made the road into the movie with vigo mortensen which is if you've never read the road or seen the movie, it is a post-apocalyptic adventure, but that's not really especially any kind of sci-fi, you know?
Starting point is 00:26:13 It's kind of like similar to Book of Eli, that kind of world where everything's just desolate and terrible. Like a Western? Yeah, man, and it's just, it's like a traveling road trip, awful, terrible movie about a guy with his son just trying to make it to this horrible world and it's just it's more more defined more
Starting point is 00:26:30 defined but there is a passage that is at the end of that book and I'm not going to corse boyle but it is one of the most poignant things I've ever read in any book ever I love Corming McCarthy in general in fact I was a little disappointed to see that some of his other books are not yet on audible.com, but there must be something about him as a publisher because it took forever for his books to come to some of the e-readers as well. So hopefully we get to that. So one of the cool things of NEST also that iPhone does, it tracks your current period of calls and all that stuff, but also lifetime. So like the whole time you've owned an iPhone,
Starting point is 00:27:02 I've had like nine days on the phone or so. I didn't know what that lifetime one was until I got the next iPhone and it all carried over. And I'm a big fan of like lifetime stats now. I want that for everything. It's like the high scoreboard. Yeah, I want to start a business based on a weighted toilet seat where it'll be called shitstats.com. Right, this is my new business. And it weighs each dump you take and the duration and then over your whole lifetime, you'll be able to see like, longest.
Starting point is 00:27:30 What I might be more interested in is like, I'm not really seeing it. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, The other thing I'd be interested in is it could measure the volume of the water in the tank and measure the volume of your poop. Let's make it do it. We're fucking smarter. Do you have, I've never thought of this once, like one time out of all the times I've been doing. I want to do this to everything I spend so much time doing that I have to do. Why do you have to do a poop? Why don't you weigh all your food and then weigh yourself?
Starting point is 00:28:02 That's it. Well that's just really, really good to do that. Because that requires me to do something. If I just, if it's a, that's just really good. I'm going to do that. Because that requires me to do something. If I just, if it's a toilet seat, it just does it as I'm going about my life. There's a new personal problem. I'm my toilet seat. It doesn't certainly have a question. What would you use the information?
Starting point is 00:28:14 Why not? It's just like, okay, what is the most great god-house in the shortest period of time? If you can track a time to weight ratio of dumbness. Do you mean like over days? If you were like in a point of time. If you can track a time to wait ratio of dumb. If you were like in a session, it wasn't your shortest ever poo, but you shut the most that time compared to how long you're on it. If you can track a step, why would you not track it? You could find it. I think volume is better because you can you cannot measure volume of urine by weight, but you can measure it by volume. Yeah. Why can't you measure volume of urine if I wait, but you can measure it by volume in the...
Starting point is 00:28:46 Why can't you measure volume in the... Because you're by weight. If you stand, there's no way for the seat to weigh you to know how much your weight has changed. Well, I've piece it down a lot, but yeah. But I think volume in the way it goes. It just be interesting. You guys are one step away from like a Howard Hughes,
Starting point is 00:29:01 like saving your piss in jars, wearing a clean-necks boxes, honey. We should weigh our fingernails as well. Like what's the biggest chunk of foam nail away from like a Howard Hughes like saving your piss in jars, wearing clean-necks boxes on your face. We should wear our fingernails as well. Like what's the biggest chunk of thumbnail you've ever, you've ever, uh, kept up. So just having to like stuff that you wouldn't look at until you're on your deathbed and you'd just be thinking there, wow, I wasted a lot of time sleeping and doing twosies. Oh, I wish you were a shithole.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Let's see, let's see, let's see like the, the final stats is like game over. Here's what you achieved. Here's your performance report Do you know who was supposedly parents or other people dying around you? What was your biggest? Well, it would be interesting. It's like over a lifetime How big of a difference is there between food eaten and waste produced right like what's the the delta on that? Well, that would you have to eat all your food on the toilet seat though? No, you'd have to find a way to weigh your food ahead of time. All I'm saying is that that thing, that invention that you just came up with,
Starting point is 00:29:48 it's probably the next version, would then have Wi-Fi built into it. If that was the case, I would never log on to Facebook ever again. Because they had a luggage button to share. Connect with Facebook? Oh my goodness. You're a fuck that. Gavin just took a huge doose. That's good.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Shit stats. There you go, Gavin. My toilet says so so I thought I'm stupid shit finally Tumblr would be relevant to people what would you do with the information like if you found out this was the right information just you Not no, I think stats are really interesting Like I'm a video you fire how many bullets and like they track all that You can pet like would you be interested?
Starting point is 00:30:32 How much you've slept compared to another man of your age? Okay, now listen that that I do like there's That's a fuss and that's a function of the Fitbit So when you you can wear the Fitbit at night on an arm band, and it'll show you over time your sleep patterns, and when you wake up or whatever. There's even now a, I'll look at the name of it. I think it's called a Xeno or something. It's a headband you can wear, and it connects to your alarm clock wirelessly,
Starting point is 00:30:57 so that when you're awake, the alarm clock wakes you up, like closest to your time when you wake up. I think that with an app as well, it detects your movement in the night. You set on the bed. Yeah, and because I guess sleep moves in similar four-hour cycles or something It picks the best 20-minute window to wake you up. I can't keep my eyes like me at night It's my alarm in the morning. Yeah, it's news. I have to like I have to like go on like a crazy adventure every morning in order Just get out. I just don't want to phone in my head. It's a zio. That's what is a zio headband
Starting point is 00:31:24 I don't know if you can see that or not. Speaking of having a phone near your head, so Aaron's in France right now, and the French family that she's staying with, believes in what they keep referring to as the waves, they turn off the internet at night, and they turn off all the phones in the house at night because they're afraid of the waves that get in your head.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Like, they were mortified that like she slept with her, like she used her phone as an alarm. I feel like that's just, I don't know. I feel like that's just I don't know I feel like that's crazy. My crazy ways are hitting you anyway. I guess there's less But your phone puts off radiation too. I don't know that's it's all disputable There's studies that say that talking on the phone a lot Increases the odds for brain tumors, but they're really inconclusive Well, do you know about fan death you must be you must know about fandest
Starting point is 00:32:08 fandest is a widely held belief in south korea that if you have a fan running in a room while you sleep you'll die if i've got you'll die a fandest it's called fandest i believe the the the think or the thought is that it sucks the air out of your body like out of your lungs and you suffocate fandest it's like covering up like it's like an adi hydria exactly
Starting point is 00:32:30 fand death is a widely held belief in south korea that an electric fan left running overnight in a closed room can cause the death of those sleeping inside all fans sold in south korea come with an automatic timer that turns the fan off after a certain number of minutes in general scientific consensus holds that FANDEF is a mid-stage. So you think that's a load of rubbish, right? Yes.
Starting point is 00:32:50 Would you sleep with 100 fans aimed at you? I sleep with a fan on a high at my face. But I probably couldn't sleep with 100 fans on me. It'd be like too much wind. Yeah, too much noise. I always think about, we were talking about zero gravity last week and space gravity, but I always wanted it to be like to have to like strap in and sleep in zero gravity. There must be a weirdest thing like, just, in a floating feeling but you're sleeping.
Starting point is 00:33:16 Yeah, that thing, astronauts have to do where they have to vibrate themselves, otherwise their bone density drops or something like that. No, I think you're right. Yeah, let me sit on a vibrating chair. I don't know what they do to combat it, but I know that bone density loss is a problem where they prolong zero-j. I'm back in gravity and all of a sudden their legs are really weak. It's just floating around. I'd be great if they had like one astronaut. That's his job as to vibrate everybody else. You're doing a job right here. But I think it's like when I was reading about manned missions to Mars and how long that would take and everything they would do to combat
Starting point is 00:33:50 Just the effects of being in deep space for a long period of time when they actually do get into low gravity not just zero G but actual actual low gravity and They like there was all these mechanisms of like bungee treadmills where they would like I think it was even Like the way she would like almost like vacuum seal it their way so it like seem like gravity to be a vacuum and then they would just run on a treadmill there so. You know you could also do like a like a centrifugal forcing like a hamster wheel where they put someone on it and it creates an artificial bit of gravity or something like that. I don't know. I'm sure they have they have smarter
Starting point is 00:34:22 people working on it than than just me. Once again, we got to come up with a word for that. What is the word that is the faith that people more intelligent than me Have analyzed this problem and have solved it. Do you think NASA would be interested to know how much people's poop's way? This might be it's got to be better for an answer. They probably have to know how much fuel does it cost to move like two pounds of turt? Right. Do they make the astronauts to like go take a dump before you have a spatial? Yeah, they do. You're gonna think of a $20,000 in rocket fuel. Gavin, Gavin, think about that really logistically. What?
Starting point is 00:34:52 Why would they have to know how much the poop weighs? What do you mean? Every single thing inside the spatial is as light as it can be because it costs so much money. Where does the poop come from? Gavin, I mean, I'm talking about I'm talking about food on the ship. They don't want to put extra poop on it. If they've already eaten it, they're bringing in more than they need. He's talking about take-off.
Starting point is 00:35:13 Yeah. The astronauts are weighed. The astronauts weigh what they weigh, complete with poop. The food that they put on the ship weighs as much. They don't go into space and poop comes from the air. If they can jump on the ground and they can lose five pounds of weight from everyone dump it away from them where they get in the goddamn shuttle they waiting for that point they've already built the show they've already put the
Starting point is 00:35:32 field why would they way the poop why they do free going vacation say hey go to the bathroom take a ship before we go on this long trip hey we're in the moon and there's no rest stop we don't know how much shit this couch can handle on this long trip. We're going to have a lot of podcasts.
Starting point is 00:35:45 Everybody gets to get to it. We don't know how much shit this couch can handle. We're going to have to roll a cup of cash extra weight. So every thought process you have is going to blow the waste, every single thing that you think about. Thank God you don't have a hand gesture for poop. I wouldn't even want to see that level that you have for that. You were talking about this before the podcast.
Starting point is 00:36:02 So people with Tourette's that can't control things that they say, do you think people that are deaf, they speak in sign language, do they sign? It's not, it's not, they just make noises. Tourette's is not what you think it is. It's not always always. I don't know, I do not know. I do not know, it's just, it's a tick, or a tick. It's a twig, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:18 It's a tick, yeah. I think, I don't know, I'm just wondering. I mean they get Tourette's is like, I guess the funny version of Tourette's is that people can't control the fact They say exploatives, but usually it's just like noises and whistles and yeah, right. Yeah, it's pretty crazy I think I read something on Reddit that said that people who are deaf and you sign English to communicate that when they dream Instead of talking in their sleep that some have been spouted to sign in their sleep
Starting point is 00:36:41 You mean while they're sleeping they're they're signing, they're not signing in a dream. Right. Yeah. They're sleeping and signing instead of sleep talking. That's weird. Man, I just, I hope in our lifetime, we do get to the point where we can record and play back dreams, because that would be fucking awesome.
Starting point is 00:36:56 No, I'd be worried about, well, I wouldn't show it to anyone. I would just want to see my own. I wouldn't necessarily want to see anybody else's. There's a, I have been dreaming like fucking crazy. I know I talk about all the time, that alpha brain. Yeah. Oh my god. I had crazy dreams all night.
Starting point is 00:37:10 I think it's driving my wife crazy. Because I think it makes me enter like a prolonged, deeper sleep. Because she says whenever I'm taking it, I snore like a motherfucker. She said she just about killed me last night. Like she said that her and the dog were up all night just staring at me.
Starting point is 00:37:23 That sounds like a creepy dream right there. Do you ever wake yourself up snoring? Yes. I've done that on planes. I've never done it in my bed though. I find that I'm way more peaceful in my sleep when I can hear myself snoring. You're way more peaceful. I'm much more relaxed.
Starting point is 00:37:38 I can hear myself snoring. I can't really hear it but I know I'm snoring. And it just fills me with just relaxation. Yeah, but it seems like if you're aware of your snoring, you're not in as deep of a sleep. I just wish, and I only know I'm snoring because I'll be next to someone who will punch me for snoring. I don't know about what you're saying, but I do know that seeing a dog fart itself awake is like... He's like, he's like farting himself awake and it looks around to figure out who did that? What the fuck was that?
Starting point is 00:38:09 If we have a couple minutes, I know we just wrapped up taking questions. I think branding want to show off some of the best of DVDs, which just came out. Okay, so that DVD is available at Rishi.com slash store right now. And it's also available, I think exclusively at Target. Yes. That's our retail partner for the best DVD of our VVB of all time ever, period. So, you might, those are the only two places where you can get it.
Starting point is 00:38:37 It's Target and the Rishi store. It's really awesome DVD. It has a lot of like original content on it. Also Barnes and Noble. So. Is that true? Yeah, Barb just tweeted that to me. I almost called her Burp because that's
Starting point is 00:38:50 barbed in my contact list is listed as Burp Burp Dunkin Snack. I miss Bill her name frequently. I transposed the L and the E in Dunkleman. So just to avoid any confusion, I put Umblouts and accents on every letter in her name. Oh, is that one? Is that email from now?
Starting point is 00:39:04 So yeah. So now whenever I have to talk to Siri if I say call Barbara Dunkelman I have to say call Borbara Donkelman And that's how Siri says You speak to back to you like that. Can you do it on your phone right now? Let me see because my my card is that too. It's like I Call Call Borbara don't kill me in No, it didn't worry it doesn't work man. I'm telling you me all Barbara don't call man
Starting point is 00:39:40 Here's camera shy the What do you think, God? Are you going to become a citizen? Is that what you want? Do you want to become an American? I don't really know what the benefits are. You can't get dual citizenship. Why? I don't think you can start off somewhere else and get dual-American citizenship. I think you can start as an American and get dual. We talked about this once before, but it all worked out. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:40:19 Anyway, go ahead. But I can't vote because I'm not an American. Right. But can I find someone who isn't going to vote? Yes, you can't pay anybody to vote no Sure, who do you want to vote for? Obama Obama what do you want to pay to do that? Very careful my friend there are there are topics we avoid on this podcast Jesus
Starting point is 00:40:42 I go for something like he's British it on count We avoid on this podcast Jesus. I go for something like he's British. He doesn't count Politics right I pick the dude. I like he's a nice big. Oh right there. I mean, how is that? Okay, but I want to point out Gavin can't vote. What's that? So that's it I would vote from just for that. Okay legend, okay? Because he's saying Al Green really So like do you vote every time the election comes up in the UK? Yeah, I've only been up to vote once though. How often you vote for prime minister in the UK? Every four years I was really confused for five seconds. I was like you can't vote for a
Starting point is 00:41:17 Bernie I'm glad you're not a citizen of London either of my so wait a minute So you vote for the prime minister every two years years but you've only been able to vote twice so before years so yeah maybe once when you were 20 and then would you go but you're going to be back when is voting day election day in the UK you really don't know you made it to the british school system and they didn't teach you when election day is what was talking about it and i was gonna vote on Friday and I was like, yeah, I'll go and do it.
Starting point is 00:41:46 Pop down to the school when... They don't, there's no like civics class or government. What do you mean, there's just to sing anything? I'll go over here. Ha ha ha ha. When do we vote in the US? What month? November.
Starting point is 00:41:57 How do you know that, but you don't know when you vote in your own country? I'm surrounded by you. But what is that mean? But you're not, you are now. Here, okay, let's find out. Careful, your beer is gonna fall right there buddy not it's good okay you know what day in November we vote Tuesday god damn and you don't know when you voting your own country no that's crazy to me I'm gonna find out right now he's not as way to be going in America there's no that is baffling to me I mean I
Starting point is 00:42:20 don't know either but I don't live in the UK I think some people you would just talk about it if they always do early voting. Like, it's such a wide window you can vote in. It doesn't matter. You know, your vote still counts. I'm a huge fan of early voting. The only reason I know more about the Americans, because you were talking about last week voting and stuff,
Starting point is 00:42:37 and I haven't voted in England for over a year, and that was a long time ago. I don't remember. Well, all right then. The drone? Joseph? So while you looked that up, Bernie, I don't remember. All right then. Joe? Joseph? So while you looked that up, Bernie, I meant to mention earlier and I forgot that, um... No, it's all fucked up.
Starting point is 00:42:51 There's no rhyme or reason to it. Oh, does it always change or something? It's based on when the Queen dissolves parliament. Well, it was a bit of a joke. You're gonna do that? It does not sound like something that has star wars. I know, right? It dissolves a parliament.
Starting point is 00:43:03 It's typically on a Thursday. That's what they say. Oh yeah. And a general election in the UK follows the dissolution of parliament by the queen on the advice of the Prime Minister of the day. The Prime Minister thus has the power to choose the date of the election. Thursday has been the customary day to hold elections since the 1930s. So the last election was weird in that nobody won so two parties came together It's a Nobody won the election it was liberal Democrats and the conservatives and neither of them got enough votes to become But there was no ruling party. Yeah, so they they took the leader of the conservative party David Cameron made him prime minister
Starting point is 00:43:40 And took the leader of the liberal Democrats and it Clegg and made him deputy prime minister You know that's actually pretty good typical in the u.s. uh... for instance clinton yeah he never received neybby that election received more than i think forty percent of the vote because ross perot ran is a popular independent during both those elections
Starting point is 00:43:59 and so what's the take some percentage yeah it takes a percentage but he won the what we call the electoral college which i don't i don't even want to try to explain what that is I was listening to an NPR story the other day. I think it's an all-thing. Why are you listening to NPR? We were number three on iTunes last week number one was NPR and you're fucking listening to NPR not on the podcast listen to our podcast in the car Jack ass. Yeah, all right go ahead And they were attempting to explain the electoral college
Starting point is 00:44:24 So someone who is explaining the electoral college so someone who is explained the electoral college listeners and i still can follow up all i can explain it it's a lot of sense to me you know in this country you know you don't actually vote for president right you vote for an electorate basically and that person goes and he says i'll vote for obama wink wink
Starting point is 00:44:40 but yeah that's what happened with that person to show up and not vote they vote for whoever think of a few no maybe not you you know what the system is not what is the sent to people who vote here low why is it so i think maybe fifty percent i think it's made i think it's amazing if it's fifty that would be amazing why is it so i think in local elections like in city of austin stuff like for city council
Starting point is 00:44:59 they're lucky to get like six percent i think that easily single digits i'm gonna look at voter turnout let's do the what do you think in the last election i think the one election which i think was a record set uh... yeah i want to say was like twelve percent no no no it's at least in the thirties those stabbing
Starting point is 00:45:21 uh... what you look at that i i want to mention this earlier uh... on it who makes alphabets was one of our sponsors this week is having a sweepstakes Go stabbing me. What are you looking at up? I wanted to mention this earlier. On it, who makes Alpha Brain, who's one of our sponsors this week, is having a sweepstakes. So if you go to that on it.com slash gaming website, they are giving away some stuff. I forget exactly what it is. I think it's up there on the screen. Yeah. I think it's gaming lessons with T-squared, a copy of Halo 4 and some other stuff.
Starting point is 00:45:42 You can see it's there on the screen. We'll link them. So yeah, you can just enter the wedding after buy anything I think you just have to like them on Facebook or follow them on Twitter. I think it's all you have to do so check it out You can potentially win some free stuff man liking on Facebook has become such a big deal. Yeah I'm putting a packet of gum and it says like us like our gum on Facebook I you know I saw the very first time anywhere, it was follow us on Pinterest. I've never seen that anywhere in a while.
Starting point is 00:46:07 What is Pinterest? It's girl Reddit. It's girl Reddit. I've not even heard of that. Yeah, it's like, it's just wedding dress. I don't even read it. It's Reddit, it's too, it takes up on my mind. I'm just saying no.
Starting point is 00:46:17 It's pretty awesome actually. I think last year Pinterest had growth of something like, something ridiculous like 110,000 percent. Yeah. They grew enormously last year. And 70, something like something ridiculous like 110,000%. They grew enormously last year. 110,000. And 70% of their audience is women. It's basically, it's like pinboards, where you just grab stuff from the internet
Starting point is 00:46:32 and you just pin it to your pinboards. Yes. You can like stuff or favorite it or repin it. That's what it is. It's a repin and favorite. I just tell you, yeah. The fact that there's repinning, I'm not even gonna look at that now.
Starting point is 00:46:43 I just don't like annoying phrases. What about retweeting? What's another annoying? No, I'm not. But you're on Twitter? No, no, no. But it's a... Yeah, you know, and... People who aren't on Twitter, they can't stand it. They don't know why people are on Twitter It's I'm like that with Tumblr. There are people who use Tumblr all day and they live and die by Tumblr I get on Tumblr. It's just like it's a picture and a fucking it's a thousand people just just like saying Somebody somebody like this or re-blogged it or over and over again.
Starting point is 00:47:09 This is like a thing and a bit of text and then like a stack of people who did something with it. And then like the comment on it. They're just like, you can't comment or you can't do anything, you can retumble it or whatever the fuck they do. Tumble it back, toss it through a tumble. Tumble it back. You tumble it right.
Starting point is 00:47:21 I hate it, I did not get Twitter for a long time. I finally did that. Chris and I had talked about it. It's like what makes Twitter great is it all depends on For the longest time I thought it was all a bunch of people like I had a cupcake today Oh, I didn't understand why you want to do that why you would want to use Twitter But if you follow like really funny people and entertainers, it's awesome. I'd like you to know actually did have a cupcake today Did you? Yeah, we're gonna cupcake good. You're good man. Don't you I would say hey? He's tell us we got a cupcake. I went to whip in you would oh you went to whip in good. That's a good place I know cupcake sprinkles live ginger on top. It's a it's a whip is like a local convenience store
Starting point is 00:47:54 That's really well known because they have it's like you stop fucking with your shop. No, you understand You have a microphone attached to your shirt and okay So it's a local convenience term that has an awesome friction. By the way, I want to point out the fact that you're getting on miles about messing with a shirt. We spent the first 36th of this podcast. Gus did not turn on his microphone. And why not?
Starting point is 00:48:13 It's because I was pissing earlier. I didn't want you all to hear me pissing before we started recording. We did 20 goddamn minutes of mic checks and audio tests. Gus, three minutes before the podcast, goes on. He decides he's got to go to the bathroom and doesn't turn his mic back on The guy who I still read Our sponsorship bad I wanted to hear him slagging you off in the toilets like they do on live TV some time
Starting point is 00:48:35 Talking talking shit, okay, I've done that before I've been on a live mic and said some stupid shit Yeah, well, you know, I don't know what what i said but then you look down to see the mic so what was the voter turnout i'm here to be killing okay so two thousand eight voter turnout as obama's election when he won was fifty six point eight uh... two thousand four when bush was reelected for his second term fifty five point three if i could the lowest presidential one i can find is nineteen ninety six which was clinton's second term
Starting point is 00:49:03 forty nine point one percent i'm surprised that they're all that high and really genuinely shocked so the thing i can find is nineteen ninety six which was clinton's second term forty nine point one percent of surprise that they're all that high and really genuinely shocked so the thing i can look it up but clinton didn't get fifty percent of forty nine percent so less than twenty five percent of the country voted for clinton come back in the second term i mean it's it's always so funny because opponents of a president will use that they're like
Starting point is 00:49:21 all will seventy five percent of the country didn't even vote for them it's a capa that's every president you know it's it's just the way it is yeah and i was surprised to find out that in australia you have to vote and if you don't vote you get fined i'll do it that way i saw great uh... no one can do it like voter shut the fuck up i thought that was awesome yeah i was vote like that voter shut the fuck up i also don't like the idea of forcing people who are completely uneducated to go in and just start mashing buttons.
Starting point is 00:49:47 Because they like somebody's name. Let the people who are educated and impassioned go and do it. You know what I mean? Yeah, don't compel someone. Make someone go out of their way like in order to make it count. Yeah, but people, yeah, I guess. What was the reason that America became independent
Starting point is 00:50:04 from the English taxation without representation What does that mean? The US was taxed by the UK but had no Representatives of parliament. Yeah, so they were being taxed without being represented so It was taxes. Yeah, so they were the tax and they don't want to pay it anymore. So they they were holding That's all that was that's why like you heard you heard of the Boston Tea Party. Yeah, well, they dumped all the tea That means there was a high tax on tea so they figured rather than pay the import tax on tea Let's take it off the ship and throw it in the in the bay and ruin it Interesting
Starting point is 00:50:37 Why do they dress up as Native Americans? I don't know. What's that? Why do they dress up as Native Americans to do that? to symbolize uh... american what was american called what do you mean all the america but what was it did the natives call it well no no it's a it's an Italian word right yeah it's named after a medical dispute who was the first matmaker to draw north america
Starting point is 00:51:00 wow i mean that is that is that it's not it named after that that's pretty cool deal but so when was it when was a name that? That must have been I want to say in the mid 1500s maybe early 1500s Okay, what did the names call it? I don't know they were probably many different natives and many different languages And was it one country to them? No, there were no countries. It was like one thing all one thing that they aren't to them. No, there were no country. Well, one thing, one thing that they earned. It was just the world. Yeah. There was no like invisible walls like for states and stuff. It was like, oh, there's, you think there's invisible walls for
Starting point is 00:51:34 states now miles? You get what I'm saying? Like, I'm at like, arbitrary lines. There were an arbitrary lines. Yeah, that's shit that we had. That would be a fun thing I would like to do. And you would like this. I would like one state in America to draw their state line Like they just set out we're gonna make our state line What he thinks it you paint all the way around the So you know exactly like Kansas that'd be super easy You know it might be it could be in our lifetime where they have some kind of thing where it superimposes that shit
Starting point is 00:52:02 Like on Google would be like the first down marker in football games we see the yellow line yeah that be that as so in the uh... declaration of independence right go ahead something about all men are created equal right
Starting point is 00:52:18 didn't that wasn't a slavery off to that they were not considered people this horrible thing to say that that was the thinking at the time that they weren't people. In fact, even after the Civil War, they were defined as two-thirds of a person? Three-fifths. Three-fifths. And I want to say, and I say that loops back to our conversation about the electoral college.
Starting point is 00:52:35 I believe that's why the electoral college was set up because since slave or former slaves counted as less votes, they needed like this intermediary layer to count all the votes. The war on the college existed before the Civil War. Did it, I think it was a side effect afterwards. I think there was an election, I wanna say in 1804, where no, there was no clear winner. And I think the Electoral College was created. So yeah, 1804, that would be before the Civil War.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Okay. What's so disturbing to me is that since the start of time, up to like even like the start of humans, that was very recent. Yes. Oh yeah. That's crazy. Yes, David.
Starting point is 00:53:14 You sound like Joe the cat. That's mental. Well, I mean, I mean, you're approaching this too from a standpoint of you can't believe this happened in America, but I'm gonna come believe it happened anyway. It happened in pretty much every civilization to me the british empire was a massive force of colonization everywhere
Starting point is 00:53:31 effect is that there's an anti-obama uh... film that's out right now god what's the guy's the indian guy who is on fox news uh... he made it to join in theaters now to get total like obama obama obama peace and talks about how this guy research obama and essentially his philosophy obama is that obama is
Starting point is 00:53:53 anti-colonialism anti imperialism that's a that's where he comes from because his dad was from africa which was british colony and so it's like everything that obama does is to like wipe out imperialism and the shadow imperialism across the world It's just yeah, I think another one. Thanks anyway. I saw I saw it's a Regardless of content or the message it's trying to send it's just in my opinion a terrible movie It's just I don't you know, you know a lot of some politics is that way in America though
Starting point is 00:54:19 It's like it's not meant to really convince you of anything It's just meant to support the people who already believe that you you know yeah that's my problem politics in america is that people will sit there dinner parties and have these heated political discussions but no one's gonna fucking change their mind yeah politics politics is the polite way of telling people you know that you think they're stupid yeah i really that's why like i tried to stop gavin initially
Starting point is 00:54:42 when he started having that politics conversations i know we all have different opinions about it It's like and I don't want to force my to talk about it in front of people that we can't we shouldn't even try to change their mind You know people have their own their own thoughts about it already No, it's and people think people think it's very very serious. This is this is not the platform for that I know they do a Facebook I want to chill. I you know, I've just recently started using Facebook because Ben convinced me, and he was absolutely right, he convinced me to turn off my, we had a fan page for me, and I
Starting point is 00:55:12 didn't even know how to run that thing, I didn't know how to update it, and it was like you would like my fan page, but then I just could turn on subscriptions on my actual Facebook. Well, I just didn't, I never liked the idea of a fan page. Yeah, but like better. But you asked me if I want to say I don't, I don't want a fan page. I just link it to my Twitter. It seems like it's really douchey. What happened to a fan page? Yeah. You have a Twitter account. I mean, what's the douchey? That's me. On Twitter, it's like a fairly douchey. It's like a term, a term, a fan page. It says become a fan. Yeah. Well, it was a solution they had before where
Starting point is 00:55:44 people wanted to get your updates, but you didn't want them subscribing like your photos that you're putting up with your friends and your family. I get that. You totally stepped right on your deck. I saw that. That's the bonus. How would you say to my dad?
Starting point is 00:55:55 This is good. Alright, I'm going to see voter turnout in the UK. Hey, Barb, while I'm looking at the subject shout from off camera, do they have, what's voter turnout like Canada? the All right, here's voter turnout elections in the UK. Real quick, does UK have a higher voter turnout or less than America? Less, significantly less. They have, wow, they have dropped off significantly, but they still have a higher turnout in America. Really? They have had as high as the mid 80s, like 85%.
Starting point is 00:56:36 Why? 85%. In 2001, it looks like they had about 60, and that was their low point. And we'll... I would've thought that with the date always changing and not being consistent that it would be difficult to try to wrangle everyone to vote. Let's, but I guess not.
Starting point is 00:56:51 Of the four major regions in the UK, England, Wales, Scotland and North Ireland, what do you think has the lowest of voter turnout? North Ireland. North Ireland. You're correct. Last election, they had 57.6. So. Do we ever talk about this story?
Starting point is 00:57:08 Like there was that sign in Wales that was written in Welsh. Yeah, we talked about this one. Yeah, it was like a road sign in Welsh. It said, I'm out of the office. Please email me after October 10th. And I will get back to you when I'm in the office, because someone had sent off a piece of English to be translated to Welsh for the sign, and the guy was out of the office on vacation,
Starting point is 00:57:31 so his auto responder kick back that, so they thought they was responding with the translation. Wow. So they posted on a sign his automated reply for me, he saw the truck's turn right down the bridge or something. And I'll be out of the office for until November 5th.
Starting point is 00:57:46 Wow, that is fucking hilarious. It's so stupid, it's crazy what we'll do. I burst the shit out of myself, because I just started using Facebook. And I made a faux-paw on Facebook, which I didn't know. I was trying to figure out how the fuck to change my profile photo. And I couldn't figure it out,
Starting point is 00:58:01 because I put a picture of me from the Emmys, is what I wanted for the new one, instead of my podcast photo. I'm talking about this in a second, but. Anyway, so I'm trying to figure out how to change my profile photo and I clicked everything and then clicking everything I clicked like on my own photo which apparently is a terrible thing to do.
Starting point is 00:58:16 And everybody called me out of the way. I'm like you're on photo, fuck that. No, I'm apparently, I'm gonna get that. If you shouldn't do it, the button shouldn't be there. If the button's there, fuck it, like whatever you do. All right, there it goes. I'm gonna that if if you shouldn't do it the button shouldn't be there if the buttons there Fuck it like whatever you do. I'll fly right there. It's got I'm having a little Combo lever in there. That was an option Huh, I like it if someone else think I want to take the picture myself and like it so if those are options If those are option for auto like everything you do would you check? Yes, I would
Starting point is 00:58:41 Definitely because I wouldn't do it if I didn't like it if you were running in an election let's try this all together would you vote for yourself yes would you vote for yourself an election of what anything oh yeah what what's that like you're running for prime minister oh god i actually hurt my chest a little bit so you're running for prime minister of the u.k. would you vote for yourself yeah what is always mental to me is that whenever someone comes into that position of power, there's always a residence where they go like the White House or 10 Downing Street. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:59:13 So when they're not Prime Minister, like when they're not, they have to move out. That sounds really like final to me. It's like, get everything out, all your family, and then immediately someone else comes in and might have completely different views. Yeah. I saw something on reddit that was like when you also get secret service protection for the rest of your life yeah you you probably also don't have to rent the you haul or yourself I'm sure there are people who take care of stuff you probably also don't have to move the
Starting point is 00:59:34 furniture I'm sure it's it's there yeah it'd be way to live I mean I think the white has one big office basically I'm but this is probably is that happy to get the fuck out of there yeah yeah there was was a thing on Reddit where it said like a when the Clinton administration and George W. Bush came in like all the white work like all of his all the people underneath Clinton went around and just started erasing W's all around the White House just like the fuck it up before George W. Bush came in. Yeah, apparently there's a tradition of outgoing administration saying small pranks on incoming administrations and apparently I think yeah the president of outgoing administration and small pranks on incoming administrations
Starting point is 01:00:05 and apparently I think the president also supposedly leaves a note in the desk for the next incoming president and they think the number I think it's like I think when George Jolie Bush went out of office in Obama came in it was like from 41 to 42. Really? Yeah. I would draw a picture of a dick. Yeah, I was gonna say,
Starting point is 01:00:22 what if they don't just like John a picture? It's like he was saying. Man, I mean, it seems like the presidents would really rely on former presidents for just like information about how the hell they get stuff done. Learning curve of being president must be enormously high. I can't say learn on the campaign trail.
Starting point is 01:00:36 It's like we always talk about how in the first year or two of a presidency, someone will age 10 years. Like, instantly they go from being young, looking to like gray and tired looking all the time. Yeah. There's some kind of weight or knowledge that they know something, right? They tell you something during orientation, you know. It's like, this is the bell to like get people to come to you. Here's your code word. Like, what's what's the Obama's secret service name? Like, Joronamo or something? Or something or that's but i think anyway uh...
Starting point is 01:01:06 here's that and also these are all the aliens we want you to meet them if they're nice but don't don't look in the eye they live upstairs it would be a lot of the movies where the guy under the president would know but the president self wouldn't like independence day possible deniability there's got to be something right i mean one of the conspiracy theories
Starting point is 01:01:29 there's something there's like a lot of it half the country's infected with his disease are all going to die in thirty years so you know i think that there was once a time where there was there's some moments where there's not president what do you mean there's some moment well, the vice president can't just immediately become president straightaway, has to be like, it's a dude,
Starting point is 01:01:49 it's a big war. It has to be sworn in, I believe. Yeah, so after JFK got shot in the back of the face, there was no president for that at all. Back of the face, is there where you got shot? Well, they have to declare him dead and then they have to then a president. Well, there was a point when Reagan was going in for a colonoscopy
Starting point is 01:02:04 and they were going to cut polyps out of his colon and George H. Bush was made president for six hours while Reagan was under anesthesia. Oh really? Yeah, so I guess if anything happens in decisions need to be made Could you imagine getting out from that operation? Like shit was just on fire Reagan would have fixed it Fuck you aliens get the fuck out release our hostages bomb them Reagan did a fuck dude
Starting point is 01:02:32 Reagan like it was a rack he just bombed him in the middle of the night just like didn't declare war or anything they were fucking around they were being terrorist bombed him you never heard about caddafi ever again well caddafi was in Libya, not Iraq. Oh, yeah. Not Iraq.
Starting point is 01:02:47 I mean Libya. I said Iraq, but I meant Libya. Yeah. We were friends with Iraq in the 80s. Yes. Well, Obama went and got bin Laden. Just did it. Hmm?
Starting point is 01:02:57 I don't think he just, I feel like that was an ongoing process. Did we know that was going to happen? For a long time people were like, let's not go for bin Laden. Did we know? No, they didn't call me on the phone let me know like i didn't get the email update that nobody need that operation is in progress
Starting point is 01:03:09 you're right the secret operation run by the elite special forces yet they didn't let everyone actually the do you remember who leaked that information uh... it was the uh... the guy on twitter in a pakistan right now there was a guy to live to eat it about a helicopter landing in the pack stand right but there was a there was a celebrity who tweeted about it because he found out about it before
Starting point is 01:03:30 they officially announced it was the rock the rock like released it somehow he knew i don't know if he has ties to special forces i would never hurt that i didn't know that was true yeah i'll look it up make sure uh... care of anything i look at the rock and the second thing is the rock osama bin Laden tweet so good he was actually that make it really shitty yeah i love the rock long before obama spoke to the nation before media outlets reported news the rock took to twitter posted just, just got word that will shock the world.
Starting point is 01:04:05 They ended the free home of the brave, Dan Pratt had to be an American right now. How did he get like an early signal? Yep, he's got an American clearance. Yes, yeah, I mean, we talked about that when that happened, but yeah, I guess, but you know, we weren't, I mean, it's tough because Al Qaeda is not a country, but we were technically at war with them, even though we weren't technically at war.
Starting point is 01:04:27 It's horrible, great. We're politics now. I don't know much science than politics, but yeah, we were not in any kind of war or anything with Libya. I just like that picture. Where everyone's looking at the screen. That's an intense photo. Yeah, with it. It's a motion.
Starting point is 01:04:42 And it's taking it and just ruined it with pictures. I love it. It's awesome. It is with every single photo ever. So Halloween's coming up pretty soon in a couple weeks. You guys got it. Any big plans? Y'all going to do anything?

Starting point is 01:06:12 Okay, I got stories. You want stories on your story? Wait, here's one. We had a question from the chat, which is, do any of you ever had really memorable costumes for Halloween? Guys, I would imagine you abandoned dressing up for Halloween at like six.
Starting point is 01:06:24 It was pretty early. I want to say it was like eight. Yeah. It didn't seem like you want the attention. Yeah. No, I did not. Yeah. You would go to the door and be like, I forget it. I'm here to deliver your paper. That's it. No, I was just not even. I was Ellis from Lefford at two two years ago and I got really drunk and I was in character all of that and that was real memorable. No, everyone fucking hated me at that party. But I had to find my life. I made out everyone fucking hated me at that party, but I had this time with my life. I made out with, I made out with, what are the blue people from Avatar, Navies?
Starting point is 01:06:49 You made out with the blue man group? I made out with the girl that was dressed as a Navie, and I went outside in front of the house, and good times were had, and then I went back inside, and I was like, hey, dude, what's going on? Because I was still in my awful accent, and everybody started laughing, and I'm like, hey, dude, what's going on? Because I was still in my awful accent and everybody started laughing. And I'm like, man, I'm really good at this impression. But they were laughing because I had blue paint.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Yeah, this is gonna be a blue thing. Did you get it? I'm not gonna answer that question because it sounds really lovely. Did you get a blue job? A nightmare blue job. Sadly, not that night. We can always say good way from the party to it. I got blue Yeah, did you ever be really disappointed in that sort of guys? I got blue tonight really?
Starting point is 01:07:32 We got it we got to get fleshlight in the sponsor somehow. I don't know how but did you could we talk about so much? Did you know fleshlight has a Navi? Yeah, yeah, does it come with like a little tail that you insert? No, I don't know you can hook your ponytail, gross. No, I don't know. You can hook your ponytail into it. Generic alien. Is it tools? It's well. Is it like generic alien? Like not the knobby, but like a weird alien one.
Starting point is 01:07:51 I want to say they do maybe a thing of the knobby one. Here's a weird colored fleshlight. Half light. I don't want to pull it up. I'm just trying to do this thing here. Don't make my stretches. I'm putting it in the linked up and then it should be like that's highly inappropriate.
Starting point is 01:08:01 I don't want to. How are they not as positive? We're talking about fleshlight solates so often spontaneously. Someone got offended last week's podcast because we showed that gross video at the end and they said that it wasn't fair that they had to watch that and I said well what video was that? What's the one at the end? Yeah. Yeah. Like with a don't watch it. Yeah. and we said it was gross. Oh Nothing can't do that. What was that I just showing him? Dixon stuff. I was just showing him like screenshots. I take the you can't unseating

It was like it just flashed the last 10 seconds of memory out. Would you do? I can give you some cushing. No. Everything's progress. Jesus, this site is pretty relentless.
Starting point is 01:08:49 Stop it. It's pretty relentless. Okay. Why don't you want to see that? Let me see here. It's just what like fake vaginas and stuff. You want to be in the mood for that, though? Come on, I think it was like some small village in China.
Starting point is 01:09:02 Some dude found what he thought was like a really crazy They're committed dude. Yeah, no, it was it was yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right.

It's a peer-git-tap loan that you like, does he like shampoo it and condition it, or is it just like you do? It's surprisingly soft. It looks like a, like a... That's not what it was. It did not sound soft on the microphone.

Starting point is 01:16:46 I've done this before and it was awful This is your live on video. I put up no fucking What is your live of video? It's a spicy watermelon candy made with geolokia You know what actually the worst part about this is I hate watermelon candy. I hate we did we did an immersion that we I don't think we showed Anywhere else which was our artificial flavors immersion. Yeah, we showed that it packs one year Did we ever put that online? I don't think so. That was a it was like a sponsor It was a weird immersion because it wasn't really video game related. It's where I've always had a kind of fast Angel with artificial flavors like watermelon. I've never had a watermelon that tastes like watermelon flavor
Starting point is 01:17:20 Yeah, great. There's not tastes like great great. It's purple. All right. We'll show you. Right so we took a bunch of fruit A little bit. And we injected them with artificial flavor to where an orange tasted like orange, and grapes tasted like grape. And we set it out for people to try. And it was weird. It was really weird.
Starting point is 01:17:37 It actually kind of, he said, it made the fruit taste better. What's funny is, you know, you set it up, and you didn't hit in camera style in the break room here at the studio for people to eat and react to. I saw all the food on the table and thought, that's not clean, I'm not gonna eat any of that stuff. Sorry, refuse to eat it, I wouldn't eat it because it was out there and I didn't see the process
Starting point is 01:17:56 of it being unpacked and put out. And I was convinced that it was all, it was all tainted and dirty. Yeah, they were, they were, they were making fun of me just today because I have a thing and I think it's totally okay to say this without sounding like an Assault when people send us food or bring us food that convention I just I don't eat food that people give me yeah, but that's it Yeah, like maybe beer or something like that like you'll bring like home-bait goods and they hand them to you
Starting point is 01:18:19 It's really nice, but I'm like they want me to try it right there. I'm just I'm sorry. I'm not gonna eat. Yeah food Hey, Miles is gonna eat this. Yeah, do it. It looks, I was expecting like some sort of like pickled pepper thing. This looks like a, it's just a candy. It tastes like watermelon. Oh, good. Well, that's what it is. It's just a watermelon candy. No, it doesn't. I want to try something. It's not the burn. Oh, fuck. We're going to lose people. We can't have everybody go down
Starting point is 01:18:45 We're only about Five minutes left in the podcast. It's not it's definitely not as bad as the real thing, but I'm not gonna eat that you oh my god Go on Wow, that was like why did you do the pieces of that candy? Put it back in the back I'm gonna try to make a minute. I'm gonna come in. Mine over a matter. It's not not.
Starting point is 01:19:19 It's not. It's so cool. It's like the give me the package. I want to make sure it doesn't say not to eat more than one too light This is like when you had your first pill and Jack just This could take sugar water glucose citric acid looks like he's Autofine car and boot chalokia. Oh Jesus Christ You are oh
Starting point is 01:19:42 Me your mic then that we're going to think grow. No, don't do something Mike. He's running to the track. And he's off gross. Okay, I have to. I'm proud of you, man. How you feeling? You made it 30 seconds. I will give you $1,000. What?
Starting point is 01:20:01 $1,000. You're not circumcised, right? If you place this remaining single boot jalokia candy in your force kit people should be thousand dollars. You won't you'll sick a thousand dollars. I don't want to be you right right now. My tongue still is still burning. I'm not doing it. That was not pleasant. My brother can't do it. Eight all of them. No, there's one left. There's literally one in there. You know what to do, Barry. I literally would take one out of his mouth and eat it though because I think it would immediately sterilize itself.
Starting point is 01:20:31 Ooh. It's hot as that pepper is. No, but it's not. It's hot as that. Temperature hot. It's just... Skullwheel hot. You want to try it? That doesn't say...
Starting point is 01:20:39 I wouldn't actually do that. You two get baby wines. No. But I will say this though. It's one of the things I like about Michael Jones, Rage Quit Michael. Well, do you want to? He ain't get, no, that's not the thing.
Starting point is 01:20:48 He'll do this kind of stuff. I like to give you a shit about germs or food or anything stuff. He'll let a piece of shit on a desk for a day. That's sick for how long? That's an anomaly. That's an anomaly. He's just got a little bit sick.
Starting point is 01:21:00 No, it's a correlation. But it doesn't get like food poisoning or any of those other fake things. You look awful, by the way. You look pale. How are you doing? He did get food poisoning. When?
Starting point is 01:21:09 Uh, he, that's why he stopped leaving the food out for like a day. And eating, he ate like a Taco Bell case of deal that had been left out for a day. And uh, Taco Bell's not, yeah, you could have stopped the Taco Bell. He, uh, he was paying for it. Was he? Yeah. No, no, no. So he has, he has, by his own admission, he used to talk like you a big game about how he never had it until he tempted fate one too many times.
Starting point is 01:21:31 So advice from the live chat is Gavin, just think about it and you'll get over it. Just concentrate on it. Thanks chat. It won't catch up on you. That's Gavin's own advice. Exactly. Yeah. It's like being sick. It's exactly the same thing. So as much as I hate to say this, nope, we do need to wrap up
Starting point is 01:21:49 We don't have to do that. So Gavin I had this discussion earlier about What is the word that you misunderstood for the longest period latest in your life? Like what was your friend's word that he does not say he thought chimney was Chimley. Chimley. C-H-I-M-L-E-Y. That was a chimney. Ha ha ha ha.
Starting point is 01:22:10 And he can read the word and write the word, but he would say it as chimney whenever he spoke it. Huh. So what's the word? What's the word that you... Like for me, the word epitome? I would read it in books. Not a very common word, but I would read it as epitome.
Starting point is 01:22:22 Whenever I read it. And then finally, clicked with me, they're like, oh, that's the word epitome. Sometimes when I would read... I know that word when I read it and then finally clicked with me that's like oh that's that's the word a pity sometimes I would read I used to read bio pick would be I would read as biopic yeah biopic I would do that too yeah a biopic the the hammer also the Spartan armor the mule armor yeah I read the I read the halo books I read the fall of reach and if my brain comes across a word that it doesn't know how to pronounce It will just look at some of the words that are there and just come up with it. So mjl and I are yeah So I'm like that the first time I came across it like I didn't take a moment and be like how do you pronounce that?
Starting point is 01:22:57 It was like John put on his modulinear armor like I don't know why like it just did that Modulinear modulinear in my head I pronounce that word is mod as module linear without the entire book did you guys see the really cool reveal about Halo 4 this week that came out was revealed yeah you'll demand this the mech in you know what the best thing about the mech is is that it has a crouching function that is not useful whatsoever you can't like the things enormous all it's going to be used tea bagging. Yeah, there's other stuff.
Starting point is 01:23:25 There's other stuff too. Yeah, but people are pointing out the fact that it's really funny that a guy in armor gets in a big armored tank. Basically, it's big weapons, big guns, and you can't carry. No, but it's funny, but it's the guys like already in a super power armor suit. He puts on a bigger armor suit.
Starting point is 01:23:39 That was one of those awesome things. That's not all of them. When we saw it early, we were like, what is this? And it just goes, I would've just like, oh, yeah. It was pretty cool. We spent a lot of time fucking around with it. That's awesome.
Starting point is 01:23:50 It was another bit in my mouth. Yeah, you can have another beer. That's a good solution. The solution for when you have something really spicy is to drink a lot of alcohol really fast. You can cut it down. Well, we do need to wrap. Okay, well dinner again.
Starting point is 01:24:01 Should we actually had dinner before the podcast? Yeah, thank you. Someone who Who came by I want to say it was Maggie. What was the woman's name? Maggie and Laura send us a $75 gift card to home slice so we went and picked up a bunch of home slides before recorded today By the way, this is not a call for people to send us stuff. Oh, no, no, no Please don't know I had a weird thing happen this week where I got in the mail probably the weirdest gift, not the weirdest gift,
Starting point is 01:24:28 but I was like, I can't accept this gift. They've ever gotten, somebody sent me an iPad. Did you see that? You got an iPad? Yeah, somebody sent me an iPad. You already own an iPad. No, I know, but it's like somebody was trying to get like- Was it definitely addressed to you?
Starting point is 01:24:40 Yeah, yeah, because it was like, it was an order to an iPad. It was a pitch thing. It was like, they were trying to show me their thing. And sent it on this iPad so you'd look at it and I'm like that'll work But I'm not keeping the iPad yeah, so yeah, wait a bunch of iPads. I'm not gonna return So this guy's got a digital file. I will return this one though I'm not keeping this guys and his method of sending the digital file was to put it on an iPad and mail it to you. Yep I you know actually I did that with something similar to that where I for our first movie the schedule I sent it to Kevin Smith to have him get a
Starting point is 01:25:10 look at it and I sent it with one of the props from the movie which was a baseball bat with a railroad spike through it which was which was Dexter's weapon deck I use the name Dexter a lot which I was fucking ruined by the show Dexter because that was a name I always used in scripts was the name Dexter I always liked it. Dexter looks to show Dexter. That was the name I always used in scripts was the name Dexter. I always liked it. Dexter was supposed to be Dexter. Dexter's ex-grip.
Starting point is 01:25:29 So I moved it over to Grip. Anyway, so I did that too. I never got a response about that. When we did the first grunk tank awards when we would still mail out trophies, we sent flip cameras with each of the trophies. We did. To see if anyone would send something cool back. And for years now, Val has been promising to send us something cool.
Starting point is 01:25:48 But you know, we shouldn't call Val Val to be burned. Nobody did anything. Nobody sent us back. We wanted people to record an acceptance speech for getting the, it was in here, we were going to provide you with the camera, just send us your acceptance speech and we'll play it on the podcast. And if not, it's not, you know, obligated to do anything. And just keep the flip if you want to.
Starting point is 01:26:07 Yeah, it was a thank you for making cool stuff. Total shot in the dark, total, just to see what happens. It's kind of things. And Val was at least nice enough to acknowledge it and say that we're going to do something and didn't. But everyone else was like, hey, free camera. Yeah, never heard from anyone else. So I know how to send this iPad back to the UK.
Starting point is 01:26:22 From a matter of time you can. Man, I can't believe you can. I'm going there. I'll take it back with me.
