Is this like something that like some sort of union came up with? Like we want one day of the year. We want you for sure to get a day off.

What is it? Labor Day in the United States is a holiday celebrated on the first Monday in September. It is a celebration of the American labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of workers. So why are we so? Should we celebrate our workers? Why is anyone? All right. First of all, let's introduce ourselves. We have a pretty much an entirely new cast podcast. Once you start John. I'm John. I'm Blaine. I'm Jordan. And I am Bernie and Gus. And I'm Blaine I'm Jordan and I am Bernie and Gus and I'm John again Here's the guy's carrot John this is for something very bit on a part of the podcast you appeared before on our

I did I was in the hotspot. I set up the microphone again Yeah, because one of the cool things about today's podcast is Gus isn't here I miss Gus when he's on the podcast and no offense, but you guys feel weird and new to me. Do I mean I feel like us? Blaine I gotta call some Irish. First of all, you look gorgeous. Thanks. You look great. What is the deal though with the Thai the nice pants before blaine answers this you said before this podcast starts like let's make sure we treat this like an audio podcast and right off the bat You're making a visual gag about playing about the song about your last short socks on Yeah, I'm gonna ask you about the sock better last time. You got short socks on. Oh, long pants.

Yeah, with long pants. Well, I don't know, there's still athletic, and I have high top puns. So like, you know, I need to make sure. What is athletic have to do with your pants? Your fashion profile. I'm an athletic person, seeing how I'm stretching here for a uodiole this year.

So you need to do the splits? No, and if you make me trial tear my taints in half. Is that what you officially tear? Yes. What tank do you even do you know is that muscle what are you doing get out of here tank to miss max it's right the between the spots you know the ball and the body and word from between the spot I don't know but uh and now we bite second it's my second podcast the first time a worst suit you know it's still kind of new to this and you know, it's like dating a girl you got to show up with your best outfits.

So I'm kind of like, I don't have a suit jacket on. Otherwise, I would have brought my suit pink suit jacket. You'll learn to stop putting in effort. So, the older is a little better in here. Who you think the girl is in this relationship. That's what I'm worried about. Is it me or is it Gus? No, it's the audience.

Oh, I got you. You know, you're drawing them in. Yeah. So basically what you're saying is your strategies, you're less and less clothed every time. Right. So next time I'll just be in a t-shirt, then tank top, then no shirt. You know, so three podcasts from now. Sure, it was podcast. I hope you have to do that. I would be so impressed if we got you through three episodes of any production. You can't

just shirt on during all those. You said you were going to wear your pink shirt and then, you know, we, we, I was playing this out, you know, you're going to wear your pink shirt on my pink pants. Like nothing. And I was like, oh, fool. I was going to wear my pink shirt at that tie, but I just got out of the house in a hurry.

So I didn't get to it. But one of the cool things about this podcast today is that we're filming it at about noon, which makes me feel guilty for drinking a beer. Yeah. But the good part about that is like everybody is in the building right now. Well everybody who's here, a lot of people are on town. Gavs are a good summation. Everyone who's here is in the building.

I think that was usually the case though. Everybody, everybody is here. Everyone's not here. They're not in the building. There's somewhere else. Gavs on town. He's just outside. He's in the UK in the hotel for a while though.

He's doing the UK doing something really of town. He's in the UK doing something really, really cool. He's doing the UK. And then Gus is already at PAX. My boss is at PAX. Joel's somewhere. I don't know where the hell Joel is in California. He's in Los Angeles. Yeah, he's in California. With Adam. And with Adam Ellis. And then half the achievement hunter guys are about to leave to go to PAX. Yeah, a lot of people are about to leave. Yeah, go somewhere Barbs in Canada, Lindsay's in Canada. Everybody's like scattered all over the place this week So I basically named everybody that we could potentially have on Mike But I'm what I'm hoping is that people will participate more because I like that I guess fucking hate that and I love it when someone he's out

The hot might comes in. Yeah, we go and all set up and Bernie just breaks all the rules I had a fuck I had a thing happened to me today that really pissed me off. First of all, I have to admit, we have a key card system at the studio now, and it was a big fucking deal when we moved in here that everybody gets a key card. Right. Don't lose your key card. Right. There's a fine. There's a fine. Well, there's a fine. There's some people. There's a fine. I can tell you how many times have you lost yours? I've lost it twice. Okay. I, I, in fact, Chelsea, who is our office manager, who runs the, uh, she's handling all the logistics for the Kickstarter. I think she made the Indiegogo campaign for laser team.

She's doing all the fulfillment on that, which is a huge job. Yeah. 35,000 people. I'm glad that wasn't brought to my department at all. She gave me her card when I lost mine one day because she's really great about it. She's just, what did she's mine? And I lost her. Did you lose her? I lost. You're losing other people's cards too. Yeah. Yeah. Little asshole.

That's the boss at office management though. What's that? She's doing a great job as office manager. No, she's kicking ass. Yeah. How many new pairs of glasses have you had this year? This is it. Just the one. They bought me this one actually because they wanted a set that I could keep in my office so I wouldn't forget them in lose. When you get off the podcast, does Kara take the glasses and put them in a case somewhere safe for keeping?

No, John, I'm a responsible guy. Did they come like this on the first one? Who's in the first one? Who's in the second? I think Brandon did that. I'm sorry, I did that. But I actually haven't keyed in my office. I just keep it in my office, so that when I lock my door,

I grab my key and then lock the door and then leave. In fact, the key that I got this morning to open my office, I left in my office. I don't know, I hope nobody locked my door. I just walked by a brand and was like, given the door hell. He just looked like he's trying to break it. And you're just pacing in the other room. Well, it's one of those things where the way we have our build-out done here, it doesn't seem like the most solid construction in the world

It doesn't seem that way, but that door is one of the most well-hunged doors that I've ever encountered in my life There's no gap for me to put like my sealed. I kind of chewed up my license Like a movie style like I'm gonna get through the lock with the card. I was able to work that works all the time Is it supposed to like slide the locking mechanism? Yeah. You got the latch so that when the door shuts, it pushes the latch in.

Okay. And it works one way like that. But you can't push the door open once slashed, but you can push the door closed when it's open, right? So what you do is you take the card, push it in from that direction, and it pushes the latch in. I'm going to just push the door open.

Yeah. It's lost me. You'll place the door shut. It's like, wait, it's so much. I'm going to just push the door open. Yeah, it's lost me. Go play, son. It's a lot. I just want to make it look on your face. I fucked up one of my cards. Over the winter when it was icing all the time, my windshield got real icy and I had to,

I kind of, I went through my cards to see which one could I go without to scrape the size off. And I put, I used my card to go card and fucked it up. And then I needed to use card to go card yeah and fucked it up and then I needed to use card to go like a couple months later and it would not work oh really yeah that's like an RFID chip and everything right yeah yeah it got fucked up pretty bad yeah I'm a pro at opening luggage locks because I used to work for a luggage store out back in the mall and out

and yeah so what what which place you work for samsonite oh really and every time somebody would come in they do the swammy swammy Sam's tonight like the dumb and dumb reference and fucking one of them murdered them That was the shittiest job ever, but yeah I got really good job. By the way, I used to work at the Houston trunk factory And it's now bag and baggage, which I think is a national chain. I used to luggage I did it for two summers. They're shit. Yeah, sure then come yeah So rose and think about it. Luxembourg the thing about that is not a lot of people come into buy luggage

So there's like hours at a time where nobody will come in and I would just go in the back and I would sleep I'd like take a shit I'd be the only one on the job, but I would just do whatever It didn't matter cuz no one you come in or one time I came I Woke up with trule on my face and I've been sleeping like this and my leg was asleep So I came out and I heard that there was someone outside. They'd been in there for like 15 minutes. Nobody was in there.

And I was like going out and like rubbing spit off my face. That was good. I gave him like 15% off. I went to. You're really? You're like stealing from the company. I told you that. Not only did I do a poor job that I've been paid to do well. Let's deal from the company as well

Something that happened to me I went to a radio shack last week for the first time why I needed walkie-talk It's like this Why do you need walkie-talking? It's a lock story But I'll tell you are you a kid in a Spielberg? What the fuck? So I go in there and there are two people working there and one person's like on their laptop watching stuff and they look up and they're like a person And they're almost like one lady was like

Let me help you and then the other guy was like no, I got it like they're fighting like help me And I was like I just need walkie-talkies. They're like well here. They are is like yeah, just those ones are like okay You know what they should do they were miserable people they should just they should they they've kind of tried to move away From the radio shack brand like they did that commercial during the Super Bowl the 80s called They want such a crappy store. They made a good. I had it was a great ad. It was a really great ad But it really I don't think it mattered They should just I think they would be worth it for that company to just kill the whole brand and just use the retail Locations they have in the same stores and all brand and just use the retail locations they have

in the same stores and all that and just make a new store, like make something radio hut. Yeah, I'm just like, talking some brand, the name of the business. It's synonymous with a store that no one goes to. I'm saying like, don't even like make like a, to new competitor, call it a new competitor. New competitor best blog. It like a, yeah. It's like in Madman when that lady had the dog food company and people found out that they were using horse meat and they were like, we just, we got to change the name. Otherwise, you always be synonymous with the horse meat dog food.

Yeah. I remember that episode, yeah. I remember being in middle school and seeing a radio shacking to be like, why the fuck is that so loud? And like, what is it? Like eight years later, I'm like, there's still here. How are they clinging on to life? I don't understand. I think there's a lot of people there's a lot of people that are rage Let's put it that way. I mean I'm not your age already

But there's people that like they've gone to Radio Shack their whole life and how did circuit city go under so quickly and Radio Shack is just lingering That's crazy. Yeah, I don't know. I guess Radio Shack has a smaller footprint. Yeah circuit city Yeah, they kept it with small stories I'm a matter a blind fucking title Blame is a buttoning his top butt just flex and here to rip it's it's part of the part of the process audience They drunk. No, I'm gonna hit you The company I work for Work drunk

You already blew it when you said you were sleeping and then give it out Because you were sleep out there because you were sleep out. That was different. Those were the best kinds of shit. At my job, I did something really stupid where there was a company wide, missive that went out because somebody had used the

store phones because they were bored. They used the store phones to dial one nine hundred chat lines. And that was a big deal and if they found out who doing that, and this has got to stop and don't do it. And it went out to all the stores in our city. And I thought it would be funny. I was like, oh God. I thought it would be funny. We have that list of emergency numbers. That's, you know, right by the phone, like you as fire department, here's the mall security, blah, blah, blah. I had like, Sean, the like one nine hundred

hot shit to it. Holy shit. That was a witch hunt trying to figure out who he did That's the people the work at the store and our manager was like who wrote this on there took in a room one at a time Yeah, this was moments to where it's like at first I thought the manager thought it was fun is like, you know I almost took credit for my own firing I almost took credit for my own firing. What is your turn now, man? Did they just fund out or anything? Yeah, they blamed it on somebody else at the store.

And they were like, it was a guy who had had a lot of problems. And I was working with another guy. And he was like, he was like the assistant manager and goes, yeah, we know it was, I remember his name anymore. It was Bill. And yeah, it's less strong with Bill. And I was like, okay, I did it. You know what I mean? I could actually confess. Did you get fired?

Did that make me a saint that like, I'd had to go all the way to the point of like, somebody else being fired before I finally admitted it? I think it's better than not saying anything at all. That makes you not totally a bad person. Yeah, some redemption, not a lot. Yeah, Bill totally deserves to be fired, but I just couldn't be the reason why

he got fired for the wrong reason. Great protagonist. Yeah, me. That's awesome. What are some of those shitty retail jobs that you've worked? My first job was delivering subs for Blimpy. And I just learned that Jason Sadekis had the same job and he was talking, I saw some interview with him and he was talking about like when you knew when you went to

a office and you had a hundred bucks in subs that that was going to be at least a ten dollar tip. I was totally the same way. I remember that mentality of like Oh, yeah, yeah, I got paid. We were just talking about minimum wage I think when I started working minimum wage was three dollars and thirty five cents Wow, that's what we paid it was five twenty five when I started working at a grocery store I was the dairy boy, but I got $6 because I was in refrigerator all summer. So 75 cents. That's a good philosophy. Can I fuck you up?

Like breathing in cold air all the time like that? I mean, I turned out normal. So you told me, you used an entire like five months that I was in this fucking freezer. And I just had, I started going crazy. I would be the only one in there. So like, they had the milk shells lined up in a way that anybody that's up here couldn't see if something was down on the ground.

So I would see kids with their moms, and I would look through the glass, and I would wave at the little kids. And they'd be like, mom, and then I'd like, sorry off to the back of the fridge. Just like fucking. We came like some sort of weird legend of that store.

Yeah, freezer guy. Like, up in like, Bigfoot and Loch Ness Monster. And I got the fridge. That shitty jobs. And then I worked at a toy store. That seems like a good gig. I worked at a video game store.

I went for working at Babages, which is now... Babages. What? ...was bought by a game stop. Yeah. Or bought by, I guess, eebie games, which then became GameStop. But I went from working at Babages to Bag and Baggage, which was like, I got my bag Edge. I have a bag Edge. I have a bag Edge. I got all the shittiest stories. I am like an overlap there where I worked at two places. Your resume was

a poem at Ryan's. There's a little iteration in my resume. Hey, do you have my CV? I've got a weird random job. It's pretty shitty that I did in college. Hey, here's Clayton. He's on the, he's on the, he's on the, he's on the, he's on the, he's on the Using the new Mike people who don't know who don't know Clayton He does all the audio engineering for the podcast. I should be in there right now, but I'm not so what is your what is your weird job? And college is weird because it sounds like you'd be an awesome job, but it's not I Started I was filming all day long on films. So I started working nights DJing in a strip club Nice, it was like the blue collar like welders and construction. I would pass all these places. Yes, they were doing location scouting for laser team and we needed some rural locations

I found like it looks like they Read it a barn as a strip Like like you know the just called it the barn you know the lady silhouette that you see in the back of like Just called it the barn. You know the lady silhouette you see in the back of like Flaps that was the symbol for this thing. I mean there was no effort me just One this one was very expensive in Savannah, Georgia and very much like say East Austin It used to be in a place where was like that where it was like where only a few people went But then the city expanded so it was like in a strip mall shopping center like next to a shoe repair I'm like a makeup shop and so they had blacked out windows and they couldn't have any sort

of sign because that would like devalue the locations next to them. Just a crackout. Right. So it looked sketchy as hell. And it was like the blacked out building next year. Yeah. But so you think it would be a great job, but you're there from 6 p.m. to about 4 a.m. No breaks because I need a great job. I think I would do a great job. I had to learn to pee between songs, like count down on my head, I'm like, okay, I got one minute and 30 seconds to go pee.

And if there's a line, you're screwed. And you're like, I think it'd be good to put all the girls who are either drunk all the time or just drugged up crazy. What? Shocking. I haven't surprised to hear that. But so they would just come and do it. What? Shocking. I haven't surprised to hear that. But so they would just come and do it. They'd be like, I don't want to dance to the song. And they'd be like, really high.

And you'd be like, well, you're supposed to be out there right now. And I'm not doing it. And my boss is looking to me like, get him on the stage. I'm like, did you ever have to dance for them in their place? Sooner or later, my boss just thought I was great, because I showed up on time. And I wasn't drunk.

So he was just like just dumb Fuck off. Yeah, you're risen very high that that's what works what low standards you don't show up drunk I appreciate that so do you have the strip club DJ voice? Can you do like blame to the main stage? Yeah, all right everybody up to stage now. We've got blame Blame I come here back on Thursday Military ID you get in for free and drinks or half off. That's right half off. We'll see you Thursday right now It's blame. I don't have any cash I know I'm like a marietra right now

Just let it do my butt crack. There you go. Thank you. I got two one There you go. I take your money. I'm not looking so just shot. Yeah, that's crack. I got two one dollars. There you go. I'll take your money. I'm not listening. So just shut. Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, first job is to, what about you two guys? I think the only really bad job I ever had was I worked at Hollister for a little while.

And the, the cry of the thing about that was like there was nothing ever to do. So literally you're just folding polos for about six hours. What is Hollister? Hollister like the clothing store? Like the, like the half-naked people over the walls all over the place Like it's a little step really dark stores right very dark store loud music all the time Like no one goes in there at all like it's like usually empty except like during Christmas And so you're just folding clothes all day long and time does not pass at all

Blink's gotta get dressed now listen I think we can all relate, and I think a lot of people who are working can relate, you know when you have a job that you don't like when you're just staring at the clock. Like when you're doing stuff like, you know exactly how long 15 minutes is, because you're like, okay, I'm just not gonna look at the clock.

I'm not gonna look at the clock for an hour. Doing everything. Somehow the clock goes backwards. I know, it's like you're looking, you're're looking just like you just feel your life like draining away Training away and the whole while you're thinking of how little you're getting paid for just standing there doing nothing No, screw that I would count how much I would get paid for taking a shit How much you get How much of that shit earned me yeah, no exactly just tell you it up. So did you work in like a outlet mall?

Yeah, is Alan premium outlets. Okay, exactly. Just tally it up. So did you work in like a outlet mall? Yeah. Is it Alan Premium outlets? Okay, that makes sense. And fucking shit. I hated that place. Every time I walk by, flip it off. Like, anytime I drive by, flip it off in my car.

I hate that place. That is something I never understood. Is that, and this happened, I saw on Twitter, where there's a big online network that somebody left. And a quick-there job there, and a bunch of other people who used to work there were like, ah, good-written, you know, it's like, yeah, see you later, name of the company, it's like, glad you're leaving that sinking ship.

And the dude was like, really good dude, really good guy. He was like, publicly said, it's like, you know, they hired us, they hired us all when we were really young people and didn't have any experience, gave us a lot of opportunity. I was like, I love this guy. Which way is it? Now you're make it feel really bad. No, no, no, no, but it's one of those things where it's like I've worked at companies where people work there for a long time and then the moment they leave the like yeah, fuck that place and fuck everybody It's like now it's

It's opportunity, you know, it's what you make of it right? Yeah, sorry now you should feel bad Yeah, that's right. Well, it can be my whole story it right? Yeah. Sorry. Now you should feel bad. Yeah. That's right. Well, it can be my whole story. I'm gonna toys when Ben corrupts. Well, and I was on the way out when that happens. And then I got hired at Samsung. Samsung. I don't know. It's is all right. Yeah. Do you burn bridges? Do you burn bridges? No. I probably should more than I do. Honestly, that's interesting.

Perfect. Yeah. From the bridges. Right. It's like not everybody is like you got to they're not in your life forever because they were in it for six months. You know? I think it's more important to especially when you're younger and you have no clout. Like you're cause you should not burn bridges when you're younger.

You have nobody like batten for him. You have like no portfolio or anything like to back up just to what you are. Like if you burn bridges that early on, you will have no references. You will have no one to be able to be like vouch for you. Yes. So you're good. You're fine though. You're fine though. Burn every bridge now, Bernie, you will have no one to be able to be like, like vouch for you. Yes. So you're good.

You're fine, though. Burn every bridge now, Bernie, you're good. Yeah, now at the point, now at the point my crew is like, block everybody. I can't wait to hire you. Really quick, I gotta read this.

Brandon's over there. What is he waiting? What's up with you dude? So I was on the podcast last week.

And that's a great moment. Brandon Farber and Bernie were talking about how much hard it was for them to schedule like a hangout together with Blaine and I'm sitting there knowing that nobody invited me. Actually, I looked up that conversation that I've had with those people. Can we see it on screen? Oh boy. Well, he's got to have a whole plate presentation.

So, look at that. That's my conversation with Blaine, Bernie, Barbara, and Gus. So, I'm trying to figure out what I have to do in order to get invited. So, I was looking at to take the Blaine approach and just show up and spend all my time on Tinder and talk about what girls are hot there Blaine would that be inaccurate? No, I deleted it for a long ago. She's hot.

She's hot. I could do the Gus approach and not want to be there because apparently there's something sexy about You know the person who doesn't I don't know, Brandon. I try that a lot. It's a good point Brandon. Barbara's just pleasant which You know, I got that a lot. It's a good point, Brandon. Barbara's just pleasant, which, you know, I got your shot there. You're not getting any of that. I'm getting any of these from a notepad. We made notes of all these people.

And I also have to take advantage of this when you're serious. Because I'm trying to find out what else I have to do here. Wait, so there was, maybe you guys talked about how it's hard to hang out with me? What is it? No, no, I don't even think I'm a Gus. We talked about how hard it was to hang out with Gus.

That was the premise, was that we all went out to grab a drink and I texted Gus and made sure that Barbara and Blaine also texted Gus to go out. You were not included in the contract. I'm going to make this even worse for you. This is how bad this was. I even thought, oh, I should invite Brandon and then I thought, no, he's busy working for me basically.

I don't want to pull him out of the office. I don't want to keep working. I literally thought that. That was my whole thought process. Say where you asked you didn't care if the kept working. Oh, I put a blame in Barbara knew it. That's not a clock. Brandon is here. You're here.

You're here too much. Honestly. Well, this is a busy season for us, because we're finishing up the DVDs. When Bluers, we used to make one DVD, one day, so now we make four. So this is a pretty busy time for all of us. What's the four DVDs we do? Well, we do two DVDs and two bluers. Okay. And they're all completely different. So it's like, the animators are all hanging out by themselves and joking. And I have two offices to myself halfway across the building.

Bragg about it. And nobody who wants to hang out with me I can't be like all sorry guys busy working. I just look at my phone and nothing but a motor con hang out bro You know what did the Disney's you know the broke. That was a good time right? Come on man I'll hang out with you, you know I was actually funny because I a Brandon's girlfriend lives really close by me and they've just opened up this like nice little trail that people walk on and I've gone running by Brandon really like two or three times Never noticed never noticed and he'd text me at least like you just ran by me He ran by

And it was really dark upon I were like was that plane? I was sure that was just what bros look like at night But you run down by the lake. I assume yeah, what bros look like at night. Dude, how about that? But you run down by the lake, I assume? Yeah. Yeah, everybody who runs at the lake has their shirt off. Yeah. Which I've learned why that is.

Was it? Because it's impossible to take off a shirt after you've been running. It takes me like 10 minutes to get out of shirt. It takes me like 10 minutes to get out of shirt. Actually, laughs at me when you watch me get out of shirt. When I get back from the gym, I try to get out of a shirt. It's impossible. There's also beautiful women down there with dogs.

So, you're trying to show off for the dogs Brandon Brandon made a good point said if you ever see a girl you need to fake a leg cramp and then like go talk to them about their dog And I was like well, I'd be like have a Lane cramp, but no a first conversation about a dog is golden are you guys? Good A first conversation about a dog is golden. Are you guys characters from real-time? It's like a good first. What are you gonna say? We just stopped the body man. Yeah, you can just stall.

It's too much, man. Oh man. You're so beautiful, you made my leg cramp. I never said anything about a leg cramp. I'm not a leg cramp guy. John Q's egg is gonna play Brandon in the romantic comedy. You guys play.

Hey, baby. Got any election like this? Oh, I'm gonna be an uv here. Well, I'm sorry. You listen, the? Oh, I'm down over here. Well, I'm sorry, you listen, the reason, let me go down the list. First of all, yes, Gus has got that unlock. The fact that he never goes out anywhere means that I ask him to go out places which makes no fucking sense because he always tells me no. 100% of the time.

The opposite is Barbara who, Barbara's like the go to, Barbara and Jack, well Jack's married now, but Barbara and Jack were always the go-to for me of like, I'm going out somewhere with five minutes to notice. Barbara and Jack, if they're not doing anything, absolutely. And they'll show up ten minutes later. Yeah. They're awesome about that. Yeah.

I also should point out, I messaged John. You did. I didn't even have John's number. All right, I'm burned. Well, no, I feel bad. I'm the last thing Bernie texted me was. Bernie, I'm like, I didn't see have Sean's number. Well, no, I feel bad. I'm the last thing Bernie texted me was. Bernie, I didn't see it till the morning signing it to go. Oh, see.

I'm like four for four on our hangouts. John is like. Oh, for one or two. Yeah, I was actually bummed. How far down do I have to scroll up on the text from Bernie? I've been spending way more time with Blaine than just about anybody else. It's the best times ever right? We're having a great time, bro.

I'm touched. Is this is this what it's like? King and I will blame. It's not like that. It is absolutely like that. You see, stop. Brandon is a motioning on Twitter or Tinder as swiping left and right. Absolutely.

When Blaine hits the back seat of the car, it's just instantaneously. It's like, oh, and you get the commentary to you. A lot of town on Tinder today. That's what he said. A lot of talent on Tinder. He hasn't been doing that the last month or so. Hey, and you know what, I just got a tweet from two people and they're like, hey, I'm at my boyfriend or hey, I'm at my girlfriend.

I think it's the same couple on Tinder. And we have you to think because you raised, you know, you made us aware of this app. So you know what, you know what the line is there? You got to, you get 10% of any kids reference. No, no, you get 10% of like the kids income from that union. I say that if you get married, if you meet on the ruchy.com website, it does people get married.

There's been a lot of marriages. There are tax. Yeah, 10% of that kids lifetime income. No, go collect. It's tithing. It comes back this way. Brandon, I love you very much. And I'm very sorry, but I know you're very busy this time of year,

and I don't want to distract you. So you should probably go back to work. See you later, Brandon. Otherwise, I'll have to do it. I'm going to study this. I love you. Brandon, well, hang out this weekend. Speaking of those DVDs, it's that time of the year where like,

there's a certain part of the office that I don't want to go to because of how haggard-looking some people are. Yeah, I can't even smell go to because of how Haggard looking some people are. Yeah, I Smelly and He's the poster like I walk and buy and like Basically everyone's just in their pajamas and like laying around is like I don't want to go over that point where I walked by and I saw that they just looked like death Yeah, and then I was like do you guys have a sleepover last night?

I'm gonna be super optimistic. And this is gonna be your last night. And they're like, yes, zero humor. So then I started going around and pep talking him and I was like, giving Miles a massage. He's like, let's go RVV team, let's do this. And then like, Miles was like, looked at me dead in the face. Yeah, they don't care.

He's like, I will break your neck. Like he was so not having a whole way. There he is. Yeah, there's Miles. Miles of every one I think looks the roughest. Yeah, normally because it's weird. It's probably because I remember meeting Miles when he was young and had some issues.

He's fresh and full of my students. It's like I was trying to think like what was one of the first things that we were integrated. Like I saw, I went back and I was going through all of our shows at the company and you were on one of the very first recaps. And I saw you and I was like, look at that. Look how happy and like full of energy miles is.

What's the what happens when you come into work for Rooster Team? It happens. Miles, what's it like living on the streets now? You know, you just find a nice little dark spot where nobody will steal your stuff or cut you and you're fine. You're good to go from there. Under the bridge on Congress. We'll let this room move more like above the no and they're bunked.

So the no, they worked in the space that looked like like the back alley of the office. It was like a quick man alley. It was like I have to admit it was pretty shitty and Meg and Joey and Ashley were working there and they kept saying we would like to kind of spruce up our area a little bit. And we got a really awesome guy who works with us now. His name is Marcus Marcus Laporte.

This guy is fucking awesome. All his name is Marcus Marcus Laporte this guy is fucking Love him love Marcus. Yeah, he's a production designer. He's a sets guy's a prop guy Like an art director essentially, but he does a lot of different jobs here And he the one of the best things he does is like he'll say I'm sorry. He looks like shit in the office. I don't even do today. How about if I just you know spruces up He changed our kitchen. kitchen, which was okay. It was a little Florida, a little Florida-esque. It was rough. It was like a Heady Hut.

We called it NOM because on the other side is where we work in the parlor and always saw was bamboo. So we wanted to put up like a bunch of like POW science. But he completely changed that that kitchen in like one weekend and now everybody loves it. It was, yeah, it was like Friday is like, all right, leaving the floor to hut. And then like we came in, I was like, I was like, Charlie and Charlie in fact, it was so nice. Yeah, that pictures of that out.

Like, if you're up all night drinking or you're out partying and you make it through to where Dawn where the sun comes up, that feeling of the sunlight hitting you, that's exactly what it must be like to be a vampire all the time. Yeah. Yeah.

Oh, God. It's like sunlight and noon when you're like on the river, awesome. Like Dawn sunlight when you put up all night. Like sunlight on the river. Bullshit. I'm not going to get into it because they would kill me Miles. Thanks dude. Thank you. Bye. I'll put up a bunch of We had a shoot over the weekend for a show that's coming up and

Basically long story short. We were trying to be in cognito for the shoot. Yeah, there was there's a five person crew And by the end of it we were all shirtless because it was so fucking hot out. I think Brandon took a picture here, but like, yeah, it was, it was, but how? Deppie said, you've been in Austin for about four years. I don't know if you smell your summers here. John, how long you been in Austin?

This is, this is, I'm a little over a year. A little over a year. Okay, I started last summer. Man, John, you came to Austin for one of the best summers ever. This summer? Yeah, this summer has been pretty mild. I'm, I'm concerned because it's beginning hotter. I'm concerned, because it's beginning hotter,

and I think it's gonna go into October, into the hundreds. I think it's gonna be a long summer. That was pre-summer. You are a little bit luck, because rain is coming through. There's a whole front coming through. That's gonna, like, just douse a disaster. It's gonna make it hotter, right? Yeah, rain just makes it hotter.

This is gonna be a great year. Great year in Texas. You're gonna go to Green Belt? Yeah, I'm right there. I love that. That's right, yeah. I'm skeptical. I don't believe it. It's like bone dry now. There's this place is Greenbelt It's like dried up riverbeds and like if you go out there like now when it's just been sunny It's just like rocks and that's it But if you go out there after it's rained, it's like filled and people go swimming

It's not it's not the Greenbelt. It's just a belt at this point. Oh really? Yeah, but there's a big like swatch of It called the green belt, but that if anybody else in the world look at what we call trees in Texas They're basically like big seater bushes Really? Yeah, I mean it's it it looks nice from a distance But then when you get in the middle of it, they're just awful I went for a hike there on Sunday and I went alone and apparently that's not a normal thing to do and everybody's giving me shit for it What does that mean? Yeah, I just went for a hike like you know, I just went out people the green bell were giving you shit

No, no, like friends like Don't want you to do this week. I was like I went for a hike of the green bell I'm like, oh, who'd you go with? I was like, huh? Just with myself and they're like you okay? No, it's like Yeah, are you okay? Yeah, I was like did the the Walking away song playing the entire time you're out there Here's what he's what I absolutely guarantee is that all the people that gave you shit for going also wouldn't have gone with you If you call me so let's go hike on the green bell and go do you not love to do that? Man, but I'm like I think I'm like out like super busy

Ten outs. Let's go fucking. Let's go this weekend. It's freaking nice I though I went out there and I reached a point where it was where it was all greenery and there's a little bit of water and I was like, oh wow, this is really nice, this is tranquil. And then I saw fucking snake. And I was like, all right, time to go home. Nature sucks. Yeah, I was like, fuck this. I'm outside. It's like two-foot-long. I hated it. More of the locations we were looking at for laser team this week. That's one of the questions I asked is like, we can just run the middle of a field. I was like, you got many snakes out here. He's like, why do you ask? It's like, because I don't want to

on a snake. I don't want to have a crew. I hear a snake. It's something you had to be concerned about. Yeah. What did you see? What kind of snake? I don't know. It was, it was like, uh, foot and half to two foot long. And I can't remember if he was like brown. I think it was brown. Maybe green. Is he a brown? I think his brown maybe green Pristures brown. Oh, this is riveting. He's an alligator or Godzilla Remember like breathing in and I just heard this like rustling the bushes and I looked over and it's like that's a fucking snake I want to note that when Blaine talks about himself breathing in he puts his hands on his head Like it's a heroic pose. I'm just like I imagine Blaine in the middle of the field with his hands I'm staring at this is breathing the fuck it snakes rolls up. It's like a biblical story.

And that's how Mexico was founded. Yeah, another guy I met with this week, we were talking about some other film opportunities and I was meeting with a guy. I can't say a lot, but it was a film. It was really, a guy. I can't say a lot, but it was a film. It was really, really cool. And it was shot down on the border of Mexico. And when I was even talking with this guy, he was saying, I was saying, like, one of the locations was a border town I used to go to all the time when I was in college. We just walk across the bridge and go drink there because you could

drink when you were under 21. And I said, I kind of had to ask. I said, you know, he's a Mexican kid himself or at least a Mexican heritage. And I was like, so you're going to go into Madamoros and, you know, going to go film some stuff there. And he's like, no, he was like, absolutely not. Why not? You know, just like, cover it. Because it's just like, it's the border towns along Texas and Mexico border in California, Mexico. They're just completely different now. I mean, it's just like, it's a different world compared to what? It's like 10 years ago? Yeah, compared to like 10 or 20 years ago.

I went to Mexico like two years ago, and I went to Guadalajara, and it's a lot safer there than near the border. Yeah, that's like in the middle of Mexico. It's like better if you get further down into Mexico. Yeah, you want to go in about the border. You want to get a border from the border. Yeah, border times can be really rough.

You saw us. Don't know. I want to go. Well, he talked about or border town yeah border chance can be can be really rough And you don't know when to go well He talked about he said he said yeah, it's you some of them seem like go sense now because all the college kids don't go down there anymore He said but senior citizens still go they don't give fuck You try to get kidnapped like what my kidneys are worthless. You try to get kidnapped and like, what? Give me your money. I'm some. What do all old people sound like you have a God for you?

So what age do you think that takes place? What? When you just don't give a grudge? I'm looking for that. I'm really looking for it. I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it.

I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it. I'm looking for it. 44 I don't know right there. How old was I two years ago? You're checking out There is a point where it's like you stuff that was really important to you 10 years ago She doesn't matter at all and I guess you just build up an entire life of that So what there's like a period of time where it's like you give a shit But it's like one up to I'd say what 20 three You don't really give a fuck and then once you hit like what 70

Like you say that when I was in my teenage my teenagers I give you shit about a lot of stuff. Yeah, I don't care about fire it up I don't make you think of I wonder I wonder if it's the cyclical too like you come back around when you're an old person You're like I need all my toys like I care about my toys. I can say I'm the exact opposite Hey monies or two my jump on that. I want to say something I'm the same I'm that way now where it's like, I spent like most of my 20s building stuff up. Now I'm just like, I don't want anything. I don't want, the fact that I get all stuff digital

and all that stuff, like people will like, Nicknacks and show them this. I fucking hate Nicknacks. I hate it. It's just clutter. Yeah, it's the age you get when you're okay with just like peeing anywhere. Like all the men just like, they'll just peeing on a wall anywhere.

Whoa, that story just second. That'll tie nicely with my lock down in my office story. Oh geez. Hey, Monty, what's up, man? What are you doing? Another guy who's in Crunch, Monty Ome. Hi, Monty. Hi, Monty.

Crunch for me is like, it's like constant. It's like, I know how to do it. I've been doing it for years. It's like you just gotta stay. It's a warm blanket's like constant. It's like, I know how to do it. I've been doing it for years. It's like, you just gotta stay. It's a warm blanket. Steady ride all the way out. And it's not like as soon as next week. Yeah, but this is crunch with deadlines.

That's a little bit different. Yeah, yeah. Manti, how many times do you microwave that cup of coffee? It was like the fourth time. I'm just, you know, it's all right. Manti and I talk a lot about, I'm sure most, you know, Mty, Om here is the creator of Ruby. Oh, he's the lead animator for it.

Hey, just letting people know. It's part of the job. You want to have that spirit? Monty, I talk a lot about like limitations of like, when you can do anything, you feel like you should do everything. So like limiting what you do. And the other thing,

the other thing big thing with artists is deadlines, because if you don't have a deadline, that's something, there's work on something forever, because you can always make it better. Yeah, man Speaking of paranoia, where are you guys up for when the nation the the internet went out like nation-wide last night? Oh, for the time we were out of here. I was like Skynets, you know, from LA, New York, LA, Chicago, a lot of like the Southeast fucking ever. No, actually, I'm really glad

I was not awake for that because the fact that it happened in the middle of the night Would have freaked me out a little bit. Yeah, I was like I was like if I was gonna attack the nation I would like shut off our eyes and ears first, you know that kind of thing What are the eyes and ears in the nation? I mean just internet right? I mean that's be able to communicate I see eyes and ears of Twitter. Yeah Well, that's the thing the only thing I had was Twitter at that point because like my sprint was fine It's just like time-water cable went under and it was like it was a complete blackout And I was just like I was just being old and cynical I still don't have a million old world I'm being old

I'm gonna die I got really worried when I moved here to Austin because I had a friend when I was back in California That was my my my my apocalypse like You know he was the guy I was gonna go to when shit went down and now I'm here in Austin in a major city Which is like the place you're not supposed to be if like the apocalypse happens. Really? Yeah, like you know, when you're like heavy population areas and all that kind of stuff. So now I'm out here and I got no plan whatsoever. You're yourself enough that I think you'd be.

Yeah, I think I'll come over. We got a lot of guns here. Great. So when people are freaking out about everything, everyone has a gun. Perfect. I mean, you just got to have a plan. Like, my plan is grab all the portable batteries that are here. Take the truck, go south to the where the, what's that place with all the guns? The camping store? Cabellas. Yeah, you don't think anybody else is going to go to Cabellas though. Yeah, but I'll have a truck. Well, I guess a lot of people have a truck. I'll be the one who's the first. I'll be up at three a.m.

You'll be the one who touches the first. Yeah, I think about that a lot actually was, there was a point in time when I think with SARS was getting big. And I thought, I don't know where this is going. And it gets weird because you never hear about SARS anymore. But I bought for my family. I bought enough food for two months.

That was my suitcase for us. Why two K was like my family bought water and some canned goods and that kind of thing. Did you hear about the dude who just came out of hiding? From right to K? Like, there was shit. That's something. No, just came out of what?

From right to K. I thought he was talking about the hermit that I got arrested. That's the dude. I thought he was in there for like 30 years. Or was it only for like 14 years? Holy shit. I mean, why two K was a long time ago this way? Why two K was 14 years ago? That's insane. Why two K was not that long ago 30 years ago. I only for like 14 years? Holy shit. I mean why 2k was a long time ago. Why 2k was 14 years ago?

That's insane. Why 2k was not that long ago 30 years. I was 14 years. I'm gonna double check it. That reminds me of like, man emerges from bunker 14 years after why 2k scare. Wow. This actually was a dude and he got arrested because he stayed like he stole everything. That's how he like survived. He stole everything from campsites. So now he's basically just gonna leave the same life but in jail. I might have 14 years of supplies or would he have to go out and steal that? No, he went out and that's what they said. They said he would steal from other campsites. He didn't bother to like pick up a newspaper. I think he said. When he's a newspaper, what's he? Yeah, he probably wouldn't be confused with the fact

that there are no newspapers. Right. No indication of why two kids are not printing newspapers anymore. Can you stay hidden because you were still wearing a Y2K or just because you wanted to stay a hermit? I didn't really a lot about it I call it about it. You're a headline bullshit on that story. What do you mean? Did he just made that shit up? Yeah Dude 14 years this guy didn't come out to to reach civilization That reminds me of the the Japanese soldiers who would like we're still like the Islands Those are people who like went in when technology didn't exist that you could like take with you to keep up with what the tap

Imagine it'd be like aliens coming to to take you away Yeah, that's a friend and Frazier movie flash from the past. It's great movie It's been Frazier dropped off the map after mummy. All right. Well, Monty good. Thanks for stopping by yep wrapping up animation right now Yeah All right, well, Monty, thanks for stopping by. Yep, good morning. I'll wrap it up animation right now. Yeah.

During an earthquake, yeah. Him and Katie. That's a big tale here, right? Actually, we're there. Like people like look forward to like experience in Earthquake someday. Specifically Gus. Gus, yeah. I've actually been in one.

I was in E3 like three years ago. Yeah. And there was a minor like a three or four earthquake in LA. I bet it's pretty freak out, right? No, I was pretty excited. Well, it was your reaction. They're fun. I was like, oh cool, that was an earthquake. Jordan, you're in California, guy, right? Yeah. So you've like grown up like you used to earthquakes. It's not a big deal. Yeah, totally fun. My mom would always freak out, but I always be like,

woohoo. Yeah, the ramps you can. Earthquakes, I like earthquakes I can deal with. Like you get used to, you sleep there most around when you're on California. What freaks me out here is like the tornado stuff. Oh tornadoes? I was about to say that. I don't think we'd be used to them. Yeah, I don't. Yeah, bling. How long were you in Oklahoma? I was in until I was a six while I was there though. I went to the storm. That's tornado country. I was a storm shelter. I can't remember how many times. There was like there was like one time where I remember very specifically we're at my grandpa's house. It's like a big family thing. We went in the shelter and we were there

for preamourous the entire night, Torney and Overseas Pass, Red Overseas. He was awful. And it was exciting, but I was scared at the time, but like thinking back, it was like, oh, Torney and Overseas. We were serious like, Torney and Overseas turning our warning just recently a little bit when we were having those storms.

Like the most serious that's happened is I've been here. And I was like trying to think of who to text, I was trying to think of people who've been here forever, so I was texting Jack. And he was like, I was like, Tom, what should I be, I look and forward? And he's like, if you hear the sound of a train, then you're in trouble. I was trying to think of people who've been here forever so I was texting Jack. And he was like, I was like, what should I be looking forward to? And he's like, if you hear the sound of a train, then you're in trouble. I didn't know what that meant. I was like, are trains going to be flying around or something? Like, is that what happens?

It's like, that's the sound it makes when it's like getting really serious. But I was so freaked out. I don't know what that meant. Oh, it's supposed to be door board. I didn't know what to be like. When you hear the sound of a train get to the hiding. It's bathtub, right? Bathubs are secure planes. The trains they are. They said bathtub. It's also a smaller room, but it's also seems like one of the rooms that to the hiding it's bathtub, right? Bathubs is a secure place. The train is the air. They said bathtub. It's also a smaller room, but it also seems like one of the rooms that has the most amount of glass in it with mirrors and stuff like that.

Yeah, it seems dumb. We remember when I was in high school, I covered a huge tornado that hit North Texas, and they just got fucking demolished. Like, it seemed like a really shitty time. Where do you go to hide in a house when there's an earthquake? I have a bathroom underneath my stairs. It's a tiny little bathroom, but it's only stairs. No windows. It's like the

center of the house. That's a good spot. That's a door frame, wasn't it? Under the stairs was a door frame. Yeah, door frame under the stairs is typically good because stairs might stay up. That was a, if they don't get a little bit of a problem. Yeah, that was a common chant though. Get to the door frames. Yeah, they always said that about earthquakes to get to the door frame, but then I thought I've heard later on. It's like the door frames are like almost like a white style Like if you go into doorframe you're not really that protected very much like there was there was this animaniac song that they did all about How earthquakes are in LA and I think one of the lines in the song is get to the doorway Get to the doorframe. Yeah, I said it grown up in the cold war with nooks. Yeah, or your head Oh, that was like drop. I must have been constant pressure birdie tells what I was like, you said it, grown up in the cold war with nukes, like hanging over your heads. Yeah. Oh, that was like, drop, I'm not even a

concert pressure. Bernie, tell us what that was like. Listen, when I was a year old, I was in school, I was in school in the 80s, and that's when there was this movie that came out called The Day After, and it was like, you know, yeah, the patches just the other thing. Everyone knew this. It was like, this is back when there was a huge explosion of the expansion of media in the late 80s Like up into the ladies There was four TV networks and really there was only three there was ABC CBS and NBC in the US Then they added Fox and then they added like 10 billion other fucking networks I just took my kids to an exhibit that's down at the Bob Bullock Museum here in town

Yeah, and it's all 60 technology. And just looking at the TV, the most fascinating thing to me about it was the kids were like, oh wow, it's in a cabinet. It's like a big, one thing with a tube and all that. It's crazy to them. And I was like, look at the dial. The dial has huge numbers on it. I was just like, just 13 possible tunings a while.

Only 13 channels, they go, there wasn't even that. Yeah, there wasn't even that. I had a TV. Like I remember when I was really young, I we had like a small TV like that that had only like a few dials on it. And yeah, not every what like six went to like fuzz. Yeah, nothing. You know, it's, it's even crazy to think about to how much media there is today just from like 20 years ago. Is that the movie poltergeist JJ was watching in his office. I think it might be coming up on screenplay eventually.

And I was saying, JJ, that movie would not, the premise of that movie wouldn't make any sense today because TV networks went off the air at like one in the morning. They played the national anthem and then they would go to static. And that Poltergeist is a big device for communicating with the other world. And it's like, now we have 400 channels. They don't ever go off the air. Well, they don't even see TV snow anymore. Like if something's not connected to your TV, what do you see?

See like a black or a blue screen. Yeah. Like you don't see that snow like that. I got Matt, I was on the podcast earlier, but I got Matt on old TV to run a super Nintendo or an Nintendo 64 for a game we used to play. Back when we lived together, we just played Ken Griffey baseball. I set up this huge tube TV that I got in his office, turned it on, I forgot what that experience was like.

I turned it on and went, and all the hair on my arms stood up, all the static. I can't be good for you. And the electric, the electrons being fired directly at the face, and the only thing stopping is a little piece of glass. That's all it's going on there. All right, really quick, I gotta read another thing.

because it'll make you love that company. Yeah, it's just, dollar music club, it's a YouTube ad, it's fucking hilarious. That ad was literally the only reason I signed up was just seeing that and like, I was like, all right, this seems simple. Yeah, their founder CEO did just seems like a really good dude.

Yeah, yeah. This is a company culture. Yeah, but I was just gonna say that there was a movie called like an ABC movie or one of those movie of the week or whatever the hell they called it on TV, which was a beer handoff. Yeah, saw that on the camera. Thanks bro.

It was a movie the weekend, it was called The Day After. And it was about what would it be like if a nuclear strike happened? And like it was a big event weekend, it was called The Day After. And it was about, what would it be like if a nuclear strike happened? No. And like, it was a big event. And everybody watched that program. And the next day, it's cool. Everybody was like, this, we're all going to fucking die.

We're all, yeah, there's a little mini series or something. And it was awful. I remember the day, like, I had a moment like that when I was a kid. I remember when you, like, you had science class and talking about like the space and the social and everything. And the day a teacher told me that someday the sun is going to die is going to explode. And the universe is going to be gone. And even though they said it's like forever away like I was scared to death. I'm like, I'm going to see the death of the sun. We're all going to die.

That's it. And it just scared me and gave me nightmares for forever. How the fuck did I remember that was an ABC television network thing? There's a book called The Last Babylon. It's one of my favorite books, but it's about Russian, Russia attacking us with nukes and stuff. It's pretty unique concept. It's kind of like zombies. I kind of get excited about it a little.

Well, you know, the thing that always worries me is like, there are some like apocalyptic scenarios, which are just like, that's never gonna happen. Right. What's the, what's that one view? Like zombies? There's not gonna be zombies or anything like that or there's not gonna be like, you know, Mad Max.

But what about like a fucking water world? Oh, totally be Mad Max. No, water world. That's like that's a, that's what's happening. Yeah, I would, but I would say, but what about like the zombie idea of like the whole like rabies or viral like making people go crazy kind of infection? No, I think it's more likely to have just just like a Spanish flu, like the flu of 1917. Something just killed.

Pandemic, you know, that wipes out where two people that you know die, like everybody knows at least two people who died, could just by sure to your statistics of it. But like the weird one is like the more sci-fi you get is like, you know, the sun thing or like aliens landing on the planet tomorrow and something where it wore with an alien race That's literally something that you know, it's it is wild science fiction But it actually could happen. It's on the scale of probability. It's in the possible column. Yeah, things crossed

You'd actually like that. I like apocalyptic scenarios like Yeah, I even have like an apocalypse kid at my house. It's a backpack and I got like a hatchet and like a duster, you know, so I'm gonna be like the cowboy that like strolls into town. We would do you make emotion when you said duster that maybe think of like a skirt that you're wearing. But yeah, the duster. You really, so part of your apocalypse kit is your wardrobe?

Like absolutely. And you got to look cool. Yeah, yeah. Where are you surprised? One out the square. And then you know what's going to happen is Blaine's going to put on the duster, get the apocalypse, get walk out his door and get killed by something. He's going to do that pose with his hands. He's going to breathe in. Ah, students. Here's what all your preparation is going to lead to. It's going to lead to this conversation that somebody else has going

Hey, where'd you get that duster? Oh, you killed again. What is this from the day after? Oh, yeah, Patrick has some stuff from the day after. I think it is video. I Movie. Yeah, it was like it was just like like how it happens. I remember one of the guys. I think Jason Rober It isn't it, but like one of the things that happened to me and I found Talk about like apocalypse things like the show that's on here right now, the leftovers. That's like an end of the world kind of thing. Is anyone watching that?

I have watched all my episodes so far. They're rebooting left behind with Nicholas Cage too. What do you mean left behind that novel series? Yeah, that was a huge novel series. I think it's eight books that like they sold really well because there's a huge Christian community in the US, and the movies they made didn't do that series justice. People love that series a lot. It's a story about the rapture and then the basically the rise of like

the anti-Christ during the rapture. Well like the premise of like the leftovers is like it seems like it would be something along those lines, but they immediately denounce it. Basically, it denounce that it's not that kind of scenario. Like right away, they're like, yeah, it's not the something else happened. Okay. You know it though, I think that's that's a holdover from the popularity of lost where there's this feeling that you have to stay ahead of the audience. And even if you're going to tell a compelling story that has a logical conclusion, you've got to make the end of mystery. What is it? No, the stuff.

Well, that's, I think, a little bit of the way that Damon Lindelof writes is that he loves to cause more questions and answers. And I think if you accept that that's the way he likes to write, then that makes more sense of why the shows are like that. Is this a Lindelof show? Oh, that totally makes sense. Yeah, totally makes sense. Like, his format is basically he loves compelling characters and vignettes on those characters I mean that was what the loss was about was like flashbacks of these characters a little more about him And then all the while enticing you with mystery and intention

But not giving you all the answers while still asking even more and more questions The payoff for the flashbacks in lost was amazing when it had that that season three moment when it switched from Flashing back. Where it's flashing forward three moment, when it switched from flashing backwards, to flashing forward. You realize when you realize it was flashing forward, that was cool. That was a huge payoff. It lost me at Panda Bear.

Polar Bear. The attacking polar bear. Panda Bear. Panda Bear would have been a scary and a trap going viral. Yeah, but season one of Lost was so much different than everything else. I mean, it was like, I really liked season one of lost. And I think that when you write something where you have more questions and answers, everyone starts to build out a pathway in their head. And then you can't service

all this. Well, I think I saw an interview about like the, when they were talking to the writers about that, you know, and complaining about like that there were, it seemed so lost in so many, so many questions that kind of thing. That one of their, I guess, excuses or explanations was that throughout the process, they didn't know how much long this show was lost in so many questions, that kind of thing. One of their, I guess excuses or explanations was that throughout the process, they didn't know how much long this show was gonna be. That's a tough thing. And so they kept adding and adding and adding

and still making it canon and connect to stuff. And so when you're like, as opposed to like a movie, when you write the whole movie, beginning, middle, and end, TV series, you're like, well, we might have three seasons, we might have one, who knows. Yeah, it's one of the things like we try to say format agnostic when we make content like you just make the best possible content and then we'll put it in whatever venue makes them also in a sense but one of the big challenges with that is that like I went and started Guardians of the Galaxy again. When you're writing a movie especially

if something that shows in theaters which is like a totally different format now than stuff that's like a feature length but designed for like online distribution, is that if you're in a theater, you got these people. Yeah. They're not going anywhere for not a minute or so. Unless they really hate it. So you can have some pacing in the second act or like towards the end of the first act, where you can do things that like pays off later. But with a television series or with something that's online,

you got to like keep people hooked in. Yeah, it's time to come back at the time. Yeah, and it's like obviously you want to make something that's compelling and interesting, but at the same time sometimes you want to make something that's a little bit longer drawn out, a little bit more of an investment. Well that's someone that's even talking about with Tom, the other day we were talking about comic books and we were talking about, he was asking like, do you think people are going to be reading more comic books now that more and more of these like movies are being made? And as opposed to like you know people watch like read books for movies

or read books or read the books that movies are based on is like I was like now because like when you like take like game of thrones to invest in a game of thrones from the literature side you go and buy what how many books five books that are five books yeah you buy those five books you have those five books and you can read them to the end that kind of thing but to invest into like reading the X-Men is going to the comic book store every week or continuing to to get all the issues and everything like that and it requires returning to it all the time. Pretty high barriers to entry. Yeah. And it's also a matter of like you don't know where to start. Yeah. It's just there's so much lore. I try to get in a comic books when DC rebooted everything

with the new 52. Yeah, 52. They try to make moments like that. The DC new 52 and the Marvel now moments. They're always doing it now. Now they try to get a like that a DC new 52 and the moral now moments they're doing it now now they try to get Or a start point show it's hard and cats America's dying. Oh, yeah, it's Falcon Percy I'm appreciative of the fact that I seem to grow up at that time when it was like comics were a big deal But it wasn't so much of a backlog. Yeah, you know, I mean there was but there was also new stuff, you know what I mean? Um, and then it got to the point where when I fell out of comics, that's when graphic novels started to get really really deep. And I appreciate the graphic novel format. Yeah, it's like the trademark. The trademark, the paperback collection format of comics is even

right. That's how I read a lot of comics. That's how I read two. I just wait for the trade. So it did walking dead. It's a simple war for Marvel. I have the walking dead like volume one companions like this thick it's like the first 45 issues. How to do you think volume to I have read it already. How tough do you think it would be to start over or start reading from the beginning the phantom. You would need a newspaper from like night. Yeah, some of that stuff. It's just insane. The purple guy right. Yeah, spouldering. Yeah, well, that's like

the peanuts. If you like talking about that movie. Yeah, the 3G animated one. Yeah, I hear ring. Yeah, well that's like, Dornal Henuts. If you like talking about that. Henuts movie. Yeah, the 3D animated one. Yeah, I hear that phantom movie was terrible. Yeah, that's right. Matt really likes it. Matt likes that and he likes the shadow. This show, oh, I love that movie.

That's a Baldwin. I was looking at those, and they were fucking watching it with VHS. I think the action figure, he squeezed his legs and he'd go, I don't even know what motion making his make you like a gun Come on man shadow. Oh, yeah, the shadow No, well that's uh with the guy in the galaxy like those if you want to read the backlog of those characters like Groot is from like a weird comic like tales of suspense

Yeah, and he's like some weird villain in there in the rocket wrecked here a glyphic. Yeah They're so old. Let me see, I'll tell you where it grew. It came from. It would be the hieroglyph for I am group. He was a villain. Like a monster. Yeah. He's also known as the monarch of planet X.

He was, yeah. He was at first appearance, was in tales to astonish with 13. But in rocket wreck, who is the same thing? Like really bizarre. He's from the planet, nowhere. And he had a whole, like, a hold ensemble of anthropomorphic animals.

Like he had a girlfriend who was like an otter, a friend that was a walrus, a friend that was a rabbit. I thought his story was, he was from Earth and then they didn't know that. No, that's like, and even another like reboot. Oh, and then they also have a dog. The guardians that we know of now, they, I didn't know this when they,

when they made the movie because the Guardians of Galaxy to me was like this like obscure 70s, like, Dazzler or Cloak and Dagger or Moon Knight. You know, why are they focusing on this? But I didn't know they had rebooted the whole series back in 2008 because I'm out of comics. They basically almost rebooted twice. Yeah.

Like the 2008 one was kind of a reboot and then they kind of even sort of rebooted again with the Marvel now Like in 2012, but it's so tough. I mean, it's like You know all the major powers and all the major characters to come up with a new superhero now is really tough Yeah, that's why I give George Romero a lot of credit because everyone talks about zombies as though it's just like a genre of filmmaking and Video games and comic books and like TV shows like walking dead. Like the guy who's writing Walking Dead, he basically just wrote to me a Romero TV show or Romero graphic novel. And I'm sure he was inspired by George Romero. But that was like, if you advice and you come up with a new kind of monster that nobody's ever seen before. And I know zombies have existed, you know, in like Haitian lore and stuff

like that or witchcraft. But like the idea of like the zombie apocalyptic scenario where it's transferable and all that that is a monster That's like a Frankenstein or a vampire or a werewolf or you know It's like he came up with that and it's hard to do that kind of stuff Let's like half the time in convokes They just they actually grab characters from like 30 40 years ago that no one remembers That's what I was getting at and And they'll just bring them in. And most people just go, oh, this new character, like Rocket Raccoon, like, oh, it's Rocket Raccoon

from 2008 as opposed to Rocket Raccoon from like 1973. But that shit's hard. It's like, take the fucking riddler and make the riddler interesting. Or Mephisto or Mr. Mixelplake. I mean, what the fuck are you gonna do with that? And it's like stuff that made sense in the 50s, you know, or like it was a Spider-Man villain,

the illusionist who had the spiral on his top hat. There's absurd characters like their catalog of them. Modeck, who's just like the floating head. Modeck, Modeck. And I mean, I felt that way honestly, when the Nolan movie started, I was like, oh, who's gonna be the villain? In the new Dark Knight movie, it's like,

scarecrow, I'm like, are you fucking shit? I mean, that's gonna be terrible. Yeah. Yeah, that's like, how are they gonna do scarecrow? Yeah, why villain? Why open with the scarecrow? His rogue gallery is kind of intro, and they had Rache, but his rogue gallery is pretty good.

But they did a great job with it. But yeah, no, who's gonna have an absurd rogue gallery is when the Flash TV shows out, because his villains are up, certainly the time guy. Like the boomerang, the boomerang guy, the freezing ray guy, like, he's got really weird cold. Yeah.

Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr.

Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr, other than Mandarin. The Mandarin, yeah. Other ones. The Mandarin is in the, like, the ring.

Yeah, the ring. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah.

The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah.

The ring, yeah. The ring, yeah. The ringor was a good interpretation for film. The constrictor's like one of those obscure villains that I really liked. Agreed, but like that was the thing like that adaptation of him to film. I thought it was like they did go with what they had. I'm just listening. Marvel, after Guardians of the Galaxy, I think Marvel can make whatever they want. Yeah. And they just they have the superhero genre and they can make superhero comedies. They can make superhero mysteries if they want to. I'm just waiting for Ron the Space Knight.

Now at this point, Ron the Space Knight's what, what do we reach that character? I know they're tapping out. I don't know. Really great, I want more thing to read. GoDaddy is releasing hundreds of new domains that tell people who you are and what you do, including.gooroo.club.photography and.menu.

Big on tumbler, right? Yeah, yeah, he's huge on tumbler. Like I have an actual.com for my Tumblr blog. Big on Tumblr, right? Yeah. Yeah, he's huge on Tumblr. I mean, I'm huge. That's what you do. That's like your main social destination. Would you agree?

Yeah, that's yeah. Yeah, narcissistic. The only reason I'm on Tumblr is to see my own tags and then respond if somebody's like, Hey, Blaine, I have a question. What's up? Do you run up? I don't even know how that works.

Summer's a great place for, I use a lot for inspiration because a lot of artists post their stuff on Tumblr. It's a good place to browse through a lot of artists and images and that kind of thing. Seems like a cross section between like deviant art and Twitter to me. That's what Tumblr seems like to me.

I use Tumblr to practice the internet, which means I wait for people to send me messages and then I just be jerks to them and see how they react. Really? That's like your test kitchen? Yeah, I was like, oh, wait. Wait, like people are like, I want to talk to Tumblr, I want to talk to the adored non-tumblr. Hey, just a head.

I don't like the, you know what, there's, and it's not just because like Tumblr is like a younger one, I'm just like, hey, I don't get this. I actively said, I'm not doing this one. Yeah. And that happens with social media. Yeah. When it comes up and it's like, all right, do I have to pay attention to this? But you said yes to Pinterest, right? I said no to Pinterest. The big one I said no to was Instagram. I just refused to do Instagram. You're on and I follow you. I just got on as a private thing and it's I don't want to do it. It's where does everything that Instagram does exactly doesn't make sense to me. Twitter is incorporating video somehow soon.

I never posted a selfie anywhere. Not like especially on one by myself. I made a post of like a group shot where I took you in Ashley or something like some other people like a Disney. Oh, selfies for days. Self really. It was a really funny video that was posted online of a dad in the front seat taping his or recording his daughter. I saw that. You're taking selfies in the back seat. Oh my god. And she's taking selfies for like two and a half minutes straight. I'm just like selfie after selfie. And it ends with the right hand. I hate selfies. I was well, so I was in the two minute or a day and

I was I they were about to film a let's play in Mario Kart. So I stood up take a break and watch them do it. And Ray wasn't't playing and so I obviously walked away from my phone Don't do it and he did that whole thing where he filled up my phone It's selfies. He literally was about five feet from you while he did it The fun thing was that you can take all those images and you compile them into a nice little gift And so you see an animation of Ray making the worst face possible. I saw that was funny Oh, did you do we the one who put them all together made that yeah? I exported them and put them together in a gift. And he just, he looks like he's having

some sort of weird, like, constitutional problem. Yeah. I am actually around making faces. And I will probably forget in this podcast will be out after it. But last time I was on a Pax panel with Ray, I got up to do something and he, like, in front of 5,000 people of Pax.

He did that exact thing. He's really, and I've never seen anybody else's phone. Well, he started, he started mind that he was like, he was doing it. And then he turns around and gets me in the frame. That's like, wow. That was like, wow.

insult to injury. Yeah, just to make fun of you. That's like a horror film. In the house. And you know it. It's really horrible to be included in that process. Yeah, but I never got, I never got involved with Instagram and I can be honest with you.

I never regretted it. Oh, except for the fact that some other guy grabbed my name. And then occasionally I'll take photos of people who are on Instagram, they tag me and it just tags us. I have two Instagrams that I don't use, but I'm just holding the name. Like I was my name and then I'm like, I'm Instagram. He's shameless about it too. He gets like, Phil DeFranco tag me, tag this dude anyway, and he's like,

thanks for all the followers. So that's not a bitch. So it's like one of the things we're talking about. Well yeah, that's where Tumblr gets a little scary sometimes because there are some, there's like, there's people who act like they're you, almost like, who are playing. That's the dark part of Tumblr. I've gotten people to give up, like they had my name and they were like, if you're on Tumblr you can have it. I was like, cool.

Well, I didn't even like when people use on any form of social media when they use an avatar that is somebody that I know, it's not them. Because my initial reaction is I see the avatar and I think, oh, there's Gav. Gav and probably is the one who has the most people mimicking him online. It's really bizarre.

I started reading fanfiction. Oh, with me in it as like the main other person what a surprise You're only reading ones with you in it fucking cool It's pretty interesting away from that stuff. There's one where it's like a new employee coming into the rucheteath And then like I'm like all charming and stuff is like wow. I love you Are you the new employee or is the new employee somebody else somebody else and you're hitting and I'm the one that's like Hey, I took it dinner And then blame read it and then incorporate it into his life

I don't feel like that blame no Jim blame fan fiction, so I'm sorry, I have to like you. I don't feel like that blame. There's no gym blame fan fiction, so it's unfortunate. There's no what? Gym, gym, gym blame. I expected that one the most for some reason. I got blown off by blame on Texiode. I guess like, he's like, look, I'm reading you.

I can't talk to you right now bro, I'm at the gym. You sent me a nerdy text, you're like, oh, bye bye calculations, the RRT RRT episode. Wow. That 100 episodes. It was like, what you want to know for one Rarty Rikapas had a hundred episodes. It was like, what you want to know from your shows that you work on is about to hit episode 100?

It only did like 20 episodes, so I was like, nerd. I was like, I gotta go. He was in Bromo, Jesus. All right, speaking of the gym, can I tell you a quick story? I was all incorporate that in the episodes, I'm like, gotta go bro, I'm at the gym, bro. Say bro more. So I used to work or sorry, I lived at a co-op.

Do you know what a co-op is? What am I doing? 12 year old? Yeah, I know what a co-op is. Some people don't know what a co-op is. It's basically a people, it's like a living community, everybody has labor and it's like you like co-stay there together.

It's fucking gross. Yeah, do you get labor there? It's a bunch of hippies. So basically it's usually discussed. We had a gym and I called it Blaine's Gym because I took care of it. I painted my name in there and then I like bought all the equipment and stuff. So one day my friend was working out. You don't strike me by the way, not to interrupt, but you don't strike me as a co-op guy.

I was really surprised to find out that you lived in a co-op. Yeah. No, that's cool. Usually it's just a runny, a runny, a runny, a runny, a runny, a runny, a runny, a runny, who strikes you as a co-op guy. John, rice, me. Yeah. Yeah, I can see that.

Maybe Josh. Trying to take who else? I Ricey-Me. Yeah, I can see that. Maybe Josh. Trent, thank you, Wells. I think it's Ivonne. Jaeger. Yeah, go ahead. OK, so yeah, so we had a gym in there, and I used to take care of it, and I had a text one morning and my friend was like, hey, there's

an old-used condom in here. I don't know what it's from. There's a music room above, and it's like, so many of us have been doing something up in the music room. So he's like, can you use like four? I just wanted to give you a heads up, because it was in your gym. I was like, OK, well, I'll go check it out. So he's like, can you, he's like, I just wanted to give you a heads up because he was in your gym.

I was like, okay, well, I'll go check it out. So we had security cameras in there. And I went in and I went into the history and I found 30 minutes of security footage of two people banging in Blaine's gym. And they did the most obscene things. Like he was like doing curls while things were happening. It was the worst.

So it's the worst because it wasn't you. That's how you were like, I wasn't this gym all wrong. But my friend though, worked out and touched all the equipment in that gym. I don't get over it. And then it's just like, those people were all over it. So I called that guy, he used to live at the co-op, I used to call him Jim Fucker. Every time I saw him, he said, Jim Fucker, how you doing? So, going back to that, I really can horrified if somebody came to me and said, I found

a used condom and I know exactly what it's from. That would be way more concerning than not knowing what it's from. Also, you know what it's from, you don't know who you security footage. That's a social contract. You just don't go back and look at security footage. It's horrible. Just don't ever do it. I mean, it's like you're never gonna like what you see on there unless there's a crime that took place That's what it means. It's not what is the use condom from

Because it's like obviously these people can't be doing this in Blaine's gym Blaine's gym is a sacred place. Yeah, I need to stop I heard it's Blaine's gym. It's Blaine's gym. I was gonna put Pokemon theme things in there But I left before that happened but it's Blaine's gym. It's ining Jim. It's bling Jim. I was gonna put Pokemon theme things in there But I left before that happened but splings Jim. He's in blame actual off From sinbar islands. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's put a sign like no make your bullies What did you like hose the place out with lice all yeah? I know I brought them in the two people that did it And I was like clean the shit out this place because I touched this equipment every day I was like did they know about did they know about the tape? No, they didn't even know there was security cameras now boy

You're in for a surprise. Yeah, did you show him the tape? You know one night the guy came to me and he was like drunk and he was like midnight and I was like watching movie and he's like Hey, yeah, the footage of the thing is like no get away from me like he was really weird That's are you I want to have told them that you saw Video footage because everybody don't know about it. They don't know that's good. Yeah, I just I don't like cameras everywhere I've never liked that let people want to bang in a gym. Let me get away with this I know that I'm on set. I don't like random cameras. We missed a story You're about to say a little while ago and I talked about peeing and pub

Right. Yeah, oh, we're locked. I don't want you to look out of your office. We go back to that real quick I'm gonna get trouble for this. Oh, I really want to hear it out I'm gonna get trouble for this I'm looking over there So what are the other things that happens a lot is that I will Ashley has perked up so much right? I listen We drive to work a lot together and then sometimes the cars like it's like well drive separately to work Ashley and I okay and then The car will stay here for a couple days because we'll drive back and forth together for a while and then we get off and

That's like well, I need to go home early. She's like okay. We'll go ahead and go I am 100% since we moved from stage five or moved into stage five I am a hundred percent of leaving the office before Ashley and not having my keys with me, because my Tesla does not have a set of keys. It just has a little... Yeah, it just has a little fog on it. So I don't carry my key ring all the time. So that happens all the time.

I always forget my keys. Ashley had happened to her one time out of six months we've been here. She got locked out, she took the car home and I was taking the truck home and she got locked out. And I was, oh shit, I said, I'll drive home right away and I'll find you. I'll get you, I'll let you in. She goes, well, hurry because I have to, I have to pee. And I was like, I'm packing up right now and she could say, it's hot. She says, you know what? Ashley is like this. She says, you know what? Forget it. She goes, no big deal. And I was like,

I was like, no, no, I just got to pee. She goes, I have to pee anymore. And I was like, I was like, what? And you know, Ashley doesn't give a shit. She doesn't give a fuck. So I was really surprised, she tells me the story, that Ashley peed in our backyard. It seems like I would do that in a heartbeat. Do you pee in your backyard? Yeah, all the time.

I tell the kids to do it too, like boys, say good, just pee. Did you go to the pool? Did you? No, did you pee on a phone? Come on, microphone. Back up on. I'm hoping she'll do the mic. She'll do the motion. Did you pee on a phone microphone? I Moby she'll do the mic. She'll do the motion. Did you how did I work out for you?

Sorry Sweetheart, sorry now First of all I did not go in the pool because I'm not a savage. I went against a tree Yeah me neither see what I can do tree. She can go in the pool. She wouldn't get the tree That's the thing like girls don't have the same equipment the guys You can't just whip it out and just like write your name my to help and you know I was wearing jeans So I needed something to like lean against so I had to like grab the tree and just like like like You grab the tree like kind of like

I actually had to hug a tree and pee on it I I actually had to hug a tree and pee on it. I think I've been in some really mixed-with-knows. So she grabs the tree. There's always a described to me. She grabs the tree, puts a feet at the base of the tree, and then leans back. Oh, right. So she's like, we have nabors.

The real trick was I had to like, I just got the entire back yard first to figure out like, where is what's a blind spot to all neighbors? Because we have, our neighbors have, like, they can see across the art, especially like ones on the other side, which means like no topless unveiling. It's really sad. I'm so mad at them. They took a tree down and she won't topless unveiling anymore. Sun's a bitch. I know right boy. It's a war.

But no, I did find I know no the one spot in the yard and it's next to the sweet spot. You find it. Yeah, this is my son there That's this one who peace spot next time I'm gonna be like Joe. I'm gonna be like Joe the cat and just refused to Part of the yard is gonna die next time I'm there for like game of thrones or whatever just point that spot out What are you so worried about let me tell you I'm Feed all over the backyard If you're not careful, be in your gym. So I have to admit that I have completely lost Joe the cat to Ashley.

Oh, they are best buddies. You said to Ashley at the end of there. No, I got work for a second. He's a dick. I follow you on Instagram and that's like Joe the cat pictures and they're good too. He's like such a chilled cat. Yeah, I'm a joe the cafe talker you should see my camera all the ones i don't post because i'm like maybe too much to do the cat any of the photos of the car food pictures i don't know all right well i'm really sorry that i had to tell that required me to do it not even a little part of it part of the deal social contract that's a that's all right john brought just go back watch tape it was

long gone the story was long gone John brought it back up and if and if John never hosts news ever again, it's completely coincidence Do complete yeah, thanks as it was nice being on the know have you ever peed on we thought Jordan animates it Go have you ever peed in the car while you're driving? It's like you've been a lot- Like dumb and dumb- You need to go to the bathroom, but alone. You've never tried that? No. What do you do? You pee while you're driving?

So I had a water purer cup, but I was on my way back to Dallas. It's a three and a half hour drive, but then I hit traffic in Dallas. I really got pee in the cups since I was like 12 years old. I put in this cup and it was a bad time. Let's let me tell you that. It's supposed to have a good time peeing in the cup?

I mean, some, you know, if it's successful, it's a good time. Here's your note, there's one you're a kid in your own road trip and the kid pee in a good time peeing in the cup? I mean, you know, if it's successful, you hold on. Successful, you hold on. Here's your, there's one of your kid in your road trip, and the kid peeing in the cup, and you pee in the cup, and then you stop and dump it out or whatever, just stop and pee on the side of the road. That's the same fucking thing. It's traffic.

Otherwise, you're not gonna ride around your car with a cup of pee. Well, I did, because he was traffic in Dallas, and there's nowhere to pull over. Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah. Well, dump it out the window. No, because it don't be like the biker next to me

or whatever, you know? Let's stop talking about pee. I got a pee. I don't touch you when you say that. I don't even know how much are you keeping track of time. How much time do we have? I'm gonna go pee in Bernie's house. Yeah, five minutes less. Perfect. We can go. Gingo. Hey, do you want it? Which one do you want? You hear, man? We don't care. Do you want sound checker? Do you want the the the I usually the bungalow I got a sir the bathroom situation I cannot wait for this to be corrected because There's a there's a I guess like a packed where if you're using the bathroom You're that's yours nobody's gonna come in and use the

I disagree I disagree John I know we're together. Yeah, but that's how it's been We had we had a toilet and we had a urinal in one of those bathrooms people don't come in and Use the year no Stop for a second. Let's explain the layout of what we're talking about Okay at the old office there was two bathrooms But let's and there was a one it was called a main bathroom Which had a toilet in a room and then there was a kind of like a side room off of that that also had a urinal in it. That was there was no stall. So that's a toilet. A partial wall. No, no, no, no.

Partial wall and the toilet did not. It was just like a normal bathroom that had also like I just like no, I just want to pee by myself though. The current place we have a bathroom that has a bathroom. It's a small bathroom, but it has a toilet with a stall and a urinal and a sink, but a toilet with a stall. That's the main difference. So go ahead. Now that you know, no parking. So here two four, the protocol has been somebody comes out, if you're so popular in, if you're in the honeywagon and you're peeing, I, what I do is I, there's no lock on the door anymore because you can't go, you can't, you can't, you can't, you can't take twosies in there anymore. Or they frown upon it anyway

I always knock just in case and then nobody answers I go in and So I was peeing one time and my greatest fear is somebody walking in and sure enough all people JJ Comes in what's this opens it doesn't even knock opens the door And sure enough, all people, JJ, comes in. What's he is? He opens the door. It doesn't even knock.

It opens the door. I was like occupied in the middle of my visa. This is awkward. Walks right in. Goes into the stall next to me. Yeah, and that's perfectly fine. What are you doing? I'm fine with that.

There's a door between you. Did you play sports in high school or middle school? But I'm totally with you. Scott. Fuck it. You know? I'm totally with you. Scott. Fuck it. You know? I'm telling you, one of the biggest stories that I got continued to get the most amount of shit for is

time we're on a hotel room. Joel's taking a shower. I go in the bathroom and then piss. Well, he's in the shower. That was like egregious to everybody. That's not how I animated it. I was like, you were taking a dumb. And like trying to see Joel's junk.

Yeah, exactly. I was in the honey I know that's true you actually came in and asked permission if you could if you could if you're like are you okay if I come into I said yeah, it's fine. I made sure Cuz you're outside about it. See I'm all good shot cuz of the stupid. I target you made exactly Don't do it. Don't do it JJ. You come over to bungalow. No listen I'm that's where I go to take my other business I'm going to sound check and and I see, I can see, I recognize people's shoes.

I've seen Gus's, I saw Kyle's this morning. I recognize people. I'll still talk to him. I'll be like, hey, Gus, are you doing? Now John, for you. John, continue to talk to me as I was peeing. I was like, this we're not going to do. What did I say?

I don't like people who do that. If you're're going like if you're like I got a p. I got a p2 So you go together to the bathroom Just if it's a public about you know, you're fine I'm busy. I got to focus on this You need to be acknowledge the awkward moment. I'm definitely though in the school school of thought the blame is where it's like I grew up That's that kind of shit just didn't matter. People just peel over everyone All over the party the party where I got a tree drunk What is this I peed in the backyard in like plain sight of a lot of people and that was like mortifying

No, the ultimate act of manhood of nature The ultimate act of manhood of the nature You own Is peeing on stuff. I mean, it's one of many acts of me. No, you said the ultimate Okay, you said I'm on a pedestal in this conversation you guys are fucking the undertholes I went to a church camp with this okay here's you for you are This gets weird, but I went to a church camp where one of whatever camp counselors was in the bathroom while it was taking a crap and then you Pied on his foot. It's really? He was like

Speed on his foot. You're like this and there's a whole series of guy who does with vines where he takes a sports bottle And he sprays in the And he sprays in the car and just sprays with it. Do the reactions. There's a disembodied voice. There's one where a guy asks for a toilet paper. He's like, hey, can you pass me a roll underneath the thing? Yeah, Dips is handing Nutella and then he grabs it. And they're like, what the fuck is that?

Oh my god. It's so fucking gross. Why am I surprised that boy loves bathroom care? That is the surprise me. In the least, that's pretty funny. He's the same here right now. And pranked me like that while he was using the other stuff. I would have been like, yeah, that's cool.
