I don't know what Gus did this, but if I touch this, it's like, this is, you got to tighten the pegs down.
There's no tightening bolt on this.
You know, we just, you didn't even wrench to do it,
but we have arms for our microphones
that like, if you've ever never seen the video version
of the podcast, we have one of these retractable arms,
which is like cool, but you guys have the same setup
and achievement hunter.
We have a much nicer setup.
But your arms are way better than our arms.
Because we bought this exact arm actually,
and it was like our mics were too heavy for it,
that you would set a mic in and it was dropped to the floor.
Yeah.
So we had to turn those back in and get some more.
Well, I better arms in all of you.
Well, keep those guns.
I like you so lipstick on your own bike.
That's awesome.
Barbara Kisger on arms.
So how you been, man?
I've been on the podcast so long.
What's happened in the last two months?
Well, we moved to a new studio
Good and then there was this movie Kickstarter thing that we did barb and I actually just got back
From LA
I'm gonna we went to the streaming awards. Yes
Which you were nominated for what if your shows? Yeah, and we are beat by the president
Yeah, no, okay, so well, okay. And we are beat by the President. Yeah. No things.
Well, OK, so we were nominated for the, what was it?
Not charity stream or public service stream as well
as it was.
And so we were nominated for the extra live stream, which
was fantastic.
And thank you very much, everyone who nominated us.
Thank you.
But it was us, JJ Abrams, with Course of the Force, which
is a Star Wars thing.
Michelle Obama in the White House with her thing.
I forget what it is exactly. That was YouTubers went to the White House to talk about healthcare. Hannah Hart and Tyler
O'Cleen and Vsauce and other people went there. And then it's cool. So that's awesome.
And then also Farrell was up there with something. I saw his face in like the categories. I'm
not sure what his was and the other one I figured what the other one was. Yeah.
For all Williams. Oh yeah. So we lost this in good company, you know, it was a I sent you a picture of
all the nominees on the board. I go that's a pretty cool board.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it would be really funny if our stream beat
the White House stream. Or star or yeah, I don't know about
the White House, but star was just pretty cool. Just because if you
look at the clips from our stream, it's people like vomiting
into bucket.
Shaming it. eating a thousand.
Lovacates people in costume who accepted for the White House.
I know, but the no one.
No one.
No one.
No one.
That was, that was, they, so we were nominated for nine different Streamy Awards, which is a terrible
name for an award in the Streamy's, but it's probably the premiere online video awards.
Now there's the Webby's but the webbies covers everything.
I can't even figure out the hell the webbies covers
because like David Bowie was their star of the year.
And I'm not sure exactly what David Bowie
is known for in digital culture.
Or what did he do in the last year?
Yeah, so like, like other than that,
it was like two or two ago for the webbies.
I don't know, but, you know,
but like the webbies cover graphic design and blogs
and user ability and stuff like that like user interface
Whereas the stream is totally focused basically if you want to use the vernacular of the current age
It's the YouTube award. They all sound like little kid awards like streaming webby. Yeah, yeah, and
I don't think about that
What's that it best vineyard? Yeah, so the weird thing was we were nominated for nine
Which I think put a second to
video game high school Freddie Wong.
He was, they had like 13 nominations across the bunch.
They're like the Titanic of the screen.
Yeah, every year at every award show, it's like this is the year of something.
And even though I don't think video game high school won a bunch of awards, I think they
won three of their 13.
I'm working from here.
It was very clear in that room that this was the year of video game high school won a bunch of awards. I think they won three of their 13. I'm working from remember here. It was very clear in that room that this was the year of video game high school.
Like every time it came up, everybody was like cheering and stuff like that. Video game high school
was, you know, it's very much in the moment, right? So like return of the king when that was,
you know, the Academy Awards came off. It just got we won everything. It was the thing to be.
I think I think so. And as far as a specific show, but it looked fancy as Hellman, like it looked like legit
actual award show.
It was at the Beverly Hilton, the classic Beverly Hilton.
That's actually the same place we went for the producers' guild awards.
Wow.
Yeah.
Best hotel name to date.
Oh, Barbara, I never even got the pun in the name Beverly Hilton.
I never, until I was with Barbara for five minutes.
I've known about the name of the hotel for 30 years.
You go like pun magnet, you just can't get away with it. I asked where the award show was and he was like Beverly Hilton and I was like, for five minutes. I've known about the name of the hotel for 30 years. You go like, pun magnet.
You just can't get away from it.
I asked where the workshop was and he was like, Beverly Hilton.
I was like, ah, that's funny.
And he was like, why is that funny?
Did you ever hear the crazy story about when I was with Barbara and Gav in LA for the
first time?
And I was telling the story of who Angelina is.
Yes.
And we ran into Angelina immediately.
Yeah.
I was with Gavin.
We ran into Angelina again.
Really?
Yeah. Yeah. We're. We're about 95% certain it was Angelina again really yeah, yeah, where we're we're about 95% certain
It was Angelina. She was and you can look up online. What was it a blue car? No to his all in pink the older lady blonde
All in pink carrying a pink dog and she in a pink like baby stroller dog baby stroller
So to be fair there could be like nine women in Los Angeles who were exactly like that you just described quite a few people very true
The first time we definitely saw the car So there could be like nine women in Los Angeles who were exactly like that. You just described quite a few people. Very true.
The first time we definitely saw the car, which is like, that's like seeing a unique car
in Grand Theft Auto.
It's like, it did that car.
It's definitely Angeline.
But yeah, it could have been.
And while we're telling this story, we're past one of our billboards.
Oh, wow.
So this trip, yeah, this trip, we were going to breakfast that morning at the waffle.
Yeah.
It was going to the waffle.
I love the waffle.
My favorite place.
Yeah, every time I'm still
trying to get the Dan Gritchie special on the menu, which is basically like you order
every waffle they have. So how many of you made through at this point,
do you think? What's that? How many waffles have you made it through at this point? Have
you gone through the whole, have you done the whole rotation? Oh God. You know what? I actually
when I go there, I eat this, this trip, especially pretty light because we are, you know,
we're now on the calendar for when laser team shooting starts
And it's like I just I'm not eating anything. Okay. You're right. I'm not died
I didn't go skydiving with us
Was that why absolutely was Chris yeah, huh?
You guys were the skydiving a recap. I wasn't worried about dying
But I was definitely worried about spreading an ankle
Oh, yeah, yeah, that makes sense. I'm blowing out my knee and then it's like oops. Sorry everybody sorry me
Okay, so what else happened to the stream is anything interesting? Yeah, so we sense. Our blowout might need and then it's like, oops, sorry everybody, sorry me, get out there. Get in action movie with that.
So what else happened to the streams?
Anything interesting there?
Yeah, so we won two of the nine that we were nominated for,
which I think is pretty good batting average.
Ruby won for best animated series
and they won for, definitely,
he was won for best original score.
So awesome.
Yeah, too very well deserved awards.
But it was weird because.
Bravest Warriors in that category. Yeah, Bravis warriors was the best anime and show.
And the the weird thing was is that they had a lot of categories. I think they had like 40 different categories.
And so what they did was they split away some of the categories to be announced in a pre ceremony,
which was on Thursday night. And that's a pretty typical thing.
Yeah, they do it.
But like the what are considered the heavy hitter like show awards for the Oscars, Niammi,
it's a little different than for online because like actor in a comedy or actor in a drama,
the online environment isn't sophisticated enough to where actor in a dramatic series
is like, you're gonna know who that actor is.
Yeah, yeah.
You definitely would at the Oscars, or the Emmys, you know, Tom Cruise or somebody like
that.
But the stuff that they kept in the show for the Streamies was like, Viner of the Year,
Personality of the Year, you know, First Person series, which means like a vlog basically.
They just make kind of broader character categories to include like any kind of like vlog or makeup or stuff like that.
It just seemed very odd to me that I would think best animated series at least would be in the ceremony itself.
Because when you think about shows, you think about comedy drama animated.
I guess the thing is, there's not a face associated with an animated series, you know? So, well, it's like, like, you would watch an animated series online.
It seems like something you would be more likely to see and you'd want to see the
category be awarded.
So, animated was moved to Thursday.
Okay.
That's where Ruby won on Thursday.
So, if people were watching the broadcast, we'd already won the award by the time it came
up.
But my only thing about them moving animated into the pre-serimony stuff was animation is kind of like the foundation for web entertainment. I mean that was how
entertainment on the web started with flash animation. Yeah, flash though. You know,
home star runner and all that stuff. And so it felt weird that that one was moved away,
not so much that it was moved away, but what they left in. Like when we were submitting
for nominations, Red vs. Blue is one of a lot of best animated
series awards, and not a streaming one, but for different competitions.
And we specifically did not enter Ruby and red versus blue in the same category.
It's like, we moved red versus blue into a category that was best sci-fi show, sci-fi or
action show.
And best sci-fi action show, that was in, it turned out, we didn't know this beforehand,
but they put that in the ceremony. So it was wouldn't think I would have thought they would have carved out
The best sci-fi show put that in the pre ceremony and put animated it. Yeah, you know, what's I mean stuff like bravest warriors and everything
Yeah, I really feel like they did that because of video game high school
Do you think it was because of the winners that they knew we're gonna win each award?
So they like tailored the show for the winners that they knew were going to go up. You know what? Oh, I get put in perspective awards when you and awards are great for
like discovery of shows. In fact, we had a thing where we could involve the audience in it where we
could like, you know, ask them to help us vote for audience choice award. Rewrishity was up for
show or channel of the year and we asked the audience to vote and of the, we never do that kind of stuff, you know,
like go out and ask our audience to vote
because we realized at the end of the day
it's really just marketing for the show itself.
But awards are a great thing to drive discoverability
of content.
It's like that's how I remember always hearing about shows
for the first time, it's how I heard about the sopranos.
It won all the cable ace awards.
And I was like, well, what does this show, winning all those awards?
And obviously, Rushi is a big brand online,
but we have a discoverability opportunity,
because we're in the middle of casting for laser teams.
So I made sure I told the audience that.
That's why we're kind of pushing for this one.
It's because if we win this big channel of the year,
then it makes it easier to have those conversations
with an actor like, oh, here's a script
from these online guys, and they'd be like, oh, online. It's like, no, but they would just want to be the best channel of the year, then it makes it easier to have those conversations with an actor like, oh, here's a script from these online guys and they'd be like, oh, online.
It's like, no, but they would just want to be, you know, best channel of the years.
So it's like, that's the kind of language that people speak.
Yeah.
Okay.
No, at that level.
So that's why we went for it and did that.
And so they had a whole voting system that we did.
I forgot what was going with this.
I started off with what we was a question we started off talking about here.
I lost my own train of thought and explaining all this stuff.
Anyway, that was one of the big awards at the end of the night.
Okay. And the one that ended up holding was actually an Ecuadorian channel.
That like literally I had never heard of and they have 7 million subs.
Wow. So basically what we're going to do is dub this podcast in Spanish.
See, see, see, then you're going to move that one more basically.
And that's a sito biblioteca. See, I don't know anything in Spanish.
Como es que...
Oh, what I was gonna say, so like the whole theory of like
what we submit for nominations.
And you know, it's always like, it's always one of those things too.
Like we submit a lot of achievement hard stuff.
Like we, it's submitted you guys for ensemble cast
and gaming and stuff like that.
It becomes like this, almost like this weird science and the best thing I can equate it to is
Like when you're taking a test and Barbara was just doing it now
We try to think like the person who wrote the test. Okay, so you try to think you get this process
We try to think like well, how are they gonna tailor the show like how are they gonna?
You know, what are they gonna put there or like how are people gonna vote and stuff like that?
Yeah, you know, I went through a whole process where I was on a jury
of at slam dance for gaming.
I love the story.
Yeah, slam dance.
Yeah, slam dance.
It takes place.
It basically runs parallel with Sundance in Colorado.
There are, is it Colorado or?
Yeah, no, Utah.
It's a car accident Utah.
And so basically Sundance is a big film festival in Utah. and so slam dance initially started as a sort of alternative to Sundance
So like more independent kind of like niche type films and like edgy or films would pop up there
It was kind of a shot at Sundance that they were getting to mainstream. Yeah, so they said well
This is the real independence. Yeah, like you'll see some independent independent
Like during South by Southwest you'll actually see like rival
Festivals pop up around South by in Austin during South by for people who didn't get into South by with similar names
Yeah, like there's I know there's like South by South suck. I think I think for like films
I got like you have to be rejected by South by Southwest to get in I think I could have entered that film
I hope there's a porn okay mission that runs at the same time as RTX and they call it RTX
I really hope that would they would probably well now I might get more tennis. I don't hope that
We can but uh, yeah, so anyways the slamman started is that sort of a response to people who couldn't get into Sundance and eventually
They started up with a video game portion of it. It was one year the one year. Yeah, they did one year
And I was on the jury for it. Well, there you go
So I was like your fault that they never came back or no, no, one year and I was on the jury for it. Well, you know, so I was like, you were a fault that never came back or?
No, no, but I learned about like what a jury's like
of like what's the decision for what should win.
And I remember there was a game there called
an art back killer drop.
I'm sure I've told the story before.
And it was this game where you were a little princess
and you could put up these little demon gates with spells.
You put up a red one, the blue one.
And if you walked through the red one,
you came out the blue one and vice versa.
And I was like, I saw that mechanic. It was like Bug's Bunnies portable hole. I was like,
this game is fucking amazing. And I couldn't stop playing it. And it was these guys, these
kids that had just graduated from I think DigiPen that made it. And I talked with them
a bunch and I was like, then we go in the jury room and I'm like, this is clearly, I
mean, this is like ground breaking. This can be a huge game. And I mean, literally the other jurors was like,
yeah, well, they already have a deal
with a big video game company.
It valve, it's the game that turned into portal.
Portal, and they said,
they already have a big deal with a valve already.
And so we gotta really think about what we want the festival
to be like the reputation of the festival.
Like, maybe we should be supporting more artistic endeavors,
things that won't get recognized otherwise. I was like,
what?
It's like, are we picking the best thing or are we trying to write a story here?
It's like, whatever, and it didn't win.
A game that, which was a great game, it was a game about AI-driven conversations at a dinner party.
That's what won, I believe.
Yeah. Well, that sounds like a lot of fun.
Yeah, it was actually really good.
You know what won, please please it probably didn't have the
His
Man you're talking to it right now
Yeah, you just want to pack too. I haven't been on the podcast. I want to wait. I'm talking about stuff. You were packs right what are you been doing I
Workin me tell us what you're doing. I don't know. I used to go to all these conventions. I just got a house
I did just get a house. That was that was very stressful time, but we're in and now and I'm so glad. Yeah, it's right. Other one like yeah, sex
in it or something. No, there's mold in it. So we got molded it. So we pulled the contract like
the day before we closed, which was a nightmare. So I've never been threatened to be sued before. So
I was fine. I got my first threat to be sued. Yeah. Well, I broke a contract and so you broke it. Yeah,
I thought that's what Ernest money's for. Well, they took the Ernest one. All right. I was some of
the Ernest money. I'm so much break the contract though if you find mold
Um, they they have a basically they can come back and actually try to fix it
So if they repair it in such a way that covers their contract and so they went in and spent like
$7,500 to repair the stuff
But at that point it was like that's the mold house. We're not going to the mold house and so we pulled the contract
Yeah, because they're constantly thinking about it. Yeah, yeah
But we ended up finding this other house that's like, it was cheaper and it was like much better
and it was like, well done.
I mean, the house is a beautiful.
The neighborhood is amazing.
Like as we were moving stuff in,
I met more neighbors moving stuff into my garage
than in six years of like living in a house down south.
Like I've met the entire like,
cold assac I'm in now and like they're awesome people.
Sorry.
Yeah.
No, actually the neighbor down the street, look he offered to let me borrow his table saw in miter saw
Which is like oh my god, so I want to make that do you do when you do that? Do you offer like well you can borrow my
This
You can buy my
I've got two buttons you can have
But yeah, the house is awesome. It's it's great
It's I brought we brought the cats in this weekend
So they're dealing with a dog and vice versa, but now they have two floors to play on around Twitter
You got bit by one of your cats. Oh, yeah, I got the shit bit out of me
I don't even see it now, but like so when I
When I when we were moving out of the old house my or my cats were my parents house in the workshop there
Because you know when we were moving stuff around the cat my parents didn't want the cats in their house
Yeah, and so we put them in their workshop and they stayed there for about three months
and so there's became fleabags, right?
So, well, Katie and I were like,
let's wash the cats before we take them to the new house.
So, we got them out of the shop
which they had been in there for three months
and cats don't like change very much.
So, we took them into my parents' house
and it's the washing bin and gave them both baths
and they did not like that.
So, cats don't like being moved from where they are.
They also don't like being bathed.
And we actually had a scar from the last time we beat Joe.
But I've still got like, like, Uday bit me on my palm to hear and like,
fit down hard.
And I was like, ow, ow, ow, but you can't, you know, jerk your hand out.
He's making it worse.
So I could, it was a pretty brutal, but I got him cleaned off and then put him in the
car and immediately pissed in the car.
And then, yeah, and then it was so we got them to the house.
And then they're okay now.
It took them about a week, but now they're actually kind of settled in.
Cats do a weird thing, and Joe did this whenever we took them to a new office or some Joe
the cat.
They hide.
Like, they don't, a new environment, they're just like gone.
So like a week, and then they're fine.
Yeah.
There's like a weird like certain like statute of limitations.
And the cats like, well, I guess it's the way life's going.
So fucking. Yeah, so this isn't the garage the garage they say the garage for a long time they finally kind
of now they've opened up another walking around and so it's first like Emma so our dog she was
terrified because she isn't a deal with the cats in a while and so she was pretty frightened of
them again yeah but now they're kind of back to it where kusein kusein Emma our friends but then Uday's
is the dick like Uday will like he'll lay in the stairwell so I can't get up Stairies with horses
With horses and when horses like being
Where we talk about horses
Aren't you supposed to like punch it?
Right
What? Are you the one who brought us in here?
Are you the one who brought us in here?
Are you the one who brought us in here?
No, no, no, no, I'm not thinking about it.
Someone was telling me that they volunteered for this like horse thing and then they were
saying like, what's a horse thing?
I don't know, like a ranch or whatever.
They were like competition.
And they were telling me it's like, yeah, well when the horses act up, you just kind of
give them a little, and I'm not, you just can't give them a little whack.
You can punch. Yeah, no, that's not, just kind of give him a little whack. And punch.
Yeah, no, that's what,
that's what they're supposed to do.
They sort of like hit him on the side.
That's what someone told me, I,
like in the teeth.
No, I don't think you'd be like,
I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
I was like, that's the story that turned
into that fucking character in the RTA.
Yeah, I punched the horse,
but I did, because it was vitally.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, and it would be horses.
And that's what I was like,
that's just like protocol for horses.
Like you punch protocol.
That's what someone was telling me.
And I don't, it's been a lot of time horse.
This is very gullible.
I've released it.
I, you know, treatment of animals is a very ideal.
But I also know people who have spent a lot of time
around livestock and horses.
And I've heard the same thing that horses are just like,
they're tough as hell.
And so you just like to get their attention,
you got to be ridiculously strong with them. You know yeah I'm not saying like go beat up a horse
I'm just saying like if it's like being a dog you sure no no I don't know I'm only hired by a horse
thing I've got a place with horses but you're a horse thing if they're like, yeah, like, you know, biting wife
How do we get on horses though? I was like my cats and dogs
And you're like you can't just pull it away. Yeah, yeah
I'm gonna start to think about the horses if it starts biting you're probably the am I story? Yeah, Bernie's got first
I know this is like happened in the last month. I was talking to someone about horses. How can you not remember any of the
I
Who said they volunteered.
I don't know if it was a ranch or not.
It was something with horses.
And they said that that's yeah.
Was it an apartment?
How can you remember Chris?
How can you remember that somebody told you the story
and not remember anything about it?
Like you don't know where the person worked?
At all?
I just remember this comment.
You remember the person you were talking to?
No, I don't exactly remember my conversation.
The shrunker, they punch you after that.
You try biting them?
No.
I mean a lot of stuff that has to do with horses in general is pretty like just normal interaction
with horse.
It's pretty fucking brutal.
Like spurs are metal spikes under heels that you jab into their side. I mean, that's like if somebody to me
That would be all I
Remember the first fast yeah, and it's like you're trying to get them off your back
So you run really fast and even if I understand properly the way reins work is that reins are attached to a metal bar
That's between their teeth and so when you yank it their head head goes that way because you're jamming a metal bar into their teeth.
I don't know if it's always in between their teeth.
I think they also can have a muzzle-type
that's just horse braces.
I could be a horse, horse braces.
Yeah, they need to get their teeth.
I didn't bring head ears,
anybody was behind me like yankin' away.
My aunt and uncle, they actually have horses
and a donkey up in a weatherford.
And Katie and I were up there on a little vacation.
And horses, man, those things are, they're like sturdy.
Like you were saying, like I could totally understand
like having like punch a horse on the side
to get this attention.
Cause those things, if they want to go somewhere,
those go right through you.
Like they will just, you know, don't give a shit.
Yeah.
And so, don't apparently donkeys are like the assholes
of like the large animals.
That's where they're called asses.
Is that it?
I don't think that's like a ass.
All right, I guess so.
But I mean like apparently donkeys like,
they specifically got a donkey to scare off like coyotes and stuff
Cuz donkeys just don't care like they will go after a bunch of donkeys when we went skydiving. They were nice
There's like this
The place where the skydiving
It was just a donkey
But it's in a mini donkey ranch
The way it was the one thing it's's so under-changeable, everything.
It means place.
We are at this place, it's a skydiving place, but it's also like they have animals
roaming around there for some reason, because it's out in the middle of nowhere.
They have llamas.
They have llamas.
She is not having.
It's not.
They had llamas.
They had alpacas.
Goats.
Goats, donkeys.
It's a different thing to llama than alpaca.
I would not build it.
Something.
Something. Something. Something. Right, clearly you said it. Do we do it with a mixing together with a clear line?
They have different. They're like does the alpaca is over there. Yeah, we don't talk to them. I don't know what alpaca even is.
They're hairier. I like fur. I don't know. They look different. Their faces are different.
Yeah, Chris is over there. Like they can't take a plug.
Well, I'm gonna start your jaw last y'all.
I give them a 12.
Do you get in your, uh, it's your uncle that has it?
Yeah, yeah.
So my, can your uncle's donkey, can it sing?
I don't, I don't think so.
That's a big deal, like, for people with donkeys that they sing in the morning.
Sing?
Yeah, they like, braigh.
Oh really?
Yeah.
I knew a guy who had a donkey once and he could, like, he would sing to it and it would sing back.
Like, it would, like, like, I mean, it's like, he hall, like, yeah. Yeah, that stuff. and it would sing back like it would like like I mean it's like he hall
Like yeah, yeah, that stuff, but it would do it
I don't think so, but all I know now is Katie absolutely wants a donkey like she was looking through like the
Seaboss, but she was looking like the city of Austin like regulations and stuff if we could have a donkey and apparently and the city of
Austin if you want to own a donkey you can own a dog you guys should go pick one up
We have an HOA so like the Homeowners Association, I'm assuming
wouldn't let us have a donkey, but.
Yeah, my advice.
Look up on Google, donkey S, and it filled in singing.
So my advice was, don't get donkey, get a goat.
Okay.
I used to have goats, they're awesome.
Yeah, they're really fun.
Actually, it filled a donkey.
You used to have goats?
Yeah.
I think it's not different.
I can hold different show.
I think it was second.
Wait, so you had a goat?
Yeah, I had lots of goats
Far not really
You know I live in the country in high school. We had like we had goats. We had pigs we had cows
Did you have horses? No, I would eat them. They're like our pets. Oh, they're pet goats
I had a lot of people grow big. Yeah, no, they're awesome. They're really cool, fun animals. And they like, they do this like,
they're so fun.
What's fun about they go?
They like having fun.
Like, like, like,
they're sweating with some more.
No, they like to dance and,
I sort of like,
I thought you would sing in the goats with dance.
No, they don't,
they don't dance in it.
Yeah, if you're,
goats like, they do this like,
kind of like, they jump,
they, they'll climb up on stuff and just jump.
Okay.
I don't think that's dancing. Well, what is it?
Jumping on the jumping off they just like like they're playing. Yeah, they like they're playing. It's not dancing
They climb on each other like they
They like climb up on top of cars and just like dance around up
Chris is literally doing shimmy like
As a matter of donkeys just getting down
Just grooving no ghosts are awesome like and they're and you get a little
miniature goat that didn't get you know more than like two or three feet yeah
way smaller than a donkey even a miniature little donkey thing okay
talking
what he put goat is pretty big you do it whatever that is okay me doesn't get
put down yeah um yeah well I mean it kind of makes sense like having goats I
remember at the one of the first packs I went to in Seattle, there was like a grass berm next
to the convention center, and they actually had goats.
They had like, they had rented goats to just let out to eat the grass there.
Yeah, that's kind of cool.
Like that'd be nice, actually.
Well, we were doing, I believe, we looked into renting goats.
Oh, you can't.
You can't rent goats.
No, you can tell you rent goats.
Well, yeah but not it was
it's harder than you think to come up with a goat what we ended up doing um there's this guy who is like
there's just got to go there's this guy who was selling goats and and uh selling selling them
and Brandon was like hey could we it was like goats are cheap by the way another reason you should
get them over donkey.
But he was selling these goats and they were like $70 or something and we're like,
hey, alright, we don't want the goat.
Can we just pay you $70 to borrow it for the afternoon?
And then Brandon worked it out with them and it ended up happening.
And then we had the goat shooting with it and we shot for a couple of hours.
Did you have to walk around the goat
and check it for dense or anything?
It was for a headhound.
No, I was just, and then Brandon was like,
he was like, I don't think they're gonna let us give them
back the goat.
I'm like, what does that mean?
I think they want us to keep the goat.
Like just that I was trying to get rid of.
Brandon just negotiated a cheaper goat.
That's what Brandon goes for.
No, no, no, no, he has full price for the goat.
But he was like, I think he wants us to keep the goat.
What he paid full, what an idiot. He paid full price, and then they were like, yeah, just bring no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We tried to turn the goat. The guy was like, no, it's your goat.
You're a good guy.
Wait, and he said it was your goat?
Yeah, he wouldn't.
He paid full price for it.
That's something you got something.
But we didn't want the goat.
So then we, so,
I don't understand.
You know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
You had like, I don't understand.
You don't understand.
You got suckered in buying a goat.
That's exactly what happened.
When I go rent a car and I say, hey,
I want the Ford Fiesta for rental.
They go great, that'll be 23,000
I'll bring it back in three days
I just think Brandon just didn't want to bother with owning a goat
So he was willing to pay full price just to rent it. Yeah
Price though. Why didn't pay like well you only want a portion of the go
If we have a lease on the goat it's not a little
Purchase whatever the case may be we ended up with a goat that the guy didn't want back.
So what did you do with it?
Brandon just stuck it in his yard and ran off.
Oh, the guy's yard.
Yeah, go to the band and run into the yard.
Oh, like he was like, he was like,
all right, we just, he just put it in the guy's yard
and then left back.
So the guy got a free goat back.
Yeah, he got a free goat back, but then he, you know,
he's up 70 pounds.
Yeah, good for that guy.
It was unless we're new.
If I think about it though, actually,
Brandon's Transaction might make sense because if I was
going to let some guy take away my goat,
give me 70 bucks as a deposit, right?
I guess so.
Because it's like, then the guy's like,
oh, I, it's a, then you go home and say,
hey, where's the goat?
It's like, I rented it.
You, like, every your manager, your goat manager,
be like, you don't rent goats. It's like, I don't know, they're bringing it back. It's like, rented it. You, like every your manager, your goat manager, be like, you don't rent goats.
It's like, I don't know, they're bringing it back.
That goat's gone.
Goat manager for 20 bucks.
So it totally makes sense, actually, that he would give him the full price.
I was like, how the goat was in that shop for what?
Ten cents?
Yeah, it was in the long shop, but it was like, it was in the needed goat.
You guys just finished putting I blade up last week, right?
Done.
I think I'm on the third episode. Yeah. Okay, I should watch that you look at in a cape. Yeah, it suits you
I actually I showed up because Katie was working it actually and so I showed up to pick her up and
And shared off a ruse to T style like hey jacks here put on a costume
Yeah, it was like like 11 o'clock at night. I'm like all right fine
So you guys needed a lot of extras for that. Yeah, that's fun
I guess I threw something into a dragon's mouth or something
Yeah, I got added to that production after the fact because I was I never spent a single day on
the set and then they added me and voiceover. You got any yard into it. I don't even know who I was
voicing over. What do you say again? I don't remember. You just kind of yell. Yeah. Yeah. You're like
one of the guys with helmets. Yeah. That's like Joel. Joel and I end up in a GameStop ad that way
by accident. Yeah.
So we do some GameStop ads here in Joel's in charge of a lot of them.
And he was doing, he was recording something, I think it was bad company too.
And we just needed some temporary audio because typically he'll cut the thing and then
ship it off and then someone adds the audio in later.
And so Joel and I, we just needed some audio to put over the, you know, over the action.
And it was a guy getting shot at and he was like dancing around.
So we needed like the voice of the guy shooting at him, like, come on.
Yeah. All right. Yeah.
Come on. And so Joel and I jumped in the booth and recorded that.
He laid it in temporarily.
And then they ended up adding it to the final mix.
Oh, it's his Joel ice voice in the ad.
Yelena, this, this Russian dude bounced around or whatever it is.
You know, when Joel works on those commercials and we've worked on those,
it's probably one of the longest running projects we have in the company.
We've been doing that for like eight years.
That's why I got hired to reach teeth for. That helped Joel. that for like eight years. I've got a higher touristy for us.
That helped Joel.
Initially, yeah.
My first thing I did was work on an Assassin's Creed II ad.
Yeah, a lot of times people are,
and I don't know how to do it.
I was actually thinking about a show,
but a lot of times people have questions about like,
what does everyone do on a daily basis?
Like I see them on this show, but what do they do?
Like that's always the question.
Is it being on the shows is not?
Like people would think that Joel is just
caboose. Yeah, he just hangs out and waits to play.
Yeah, Joel, Joel, to the huge project, Joel was Joel was the lead for
upresing red versus blue season one through three.
Mm-hmm.
Because when the Xbox came out and Halo one came out and Halo two, it was all
standard death. And so it came point we wanted to make this a high death thing so we had to reshoot two
and a half seasons shot for shot.
No small task.
And it took a couple of years to get it done.
It's a joe would work on that between stuff.
But then he also does like our commercial projects which, you know, being known for being
able to make a video game look as good as it can and still be representative of the game has a very
You know cool commercial aspect to it like like people hire us to do that and make cool video game shots
We prefer a lot TV commercials and Jill does that and so it's like it's always interesting because it's sometimes a 30 second commercial
Can be a two-month project. Yeah, yeah with lots of notes and lots of back and forth
Yeah, and it's interesting because there's always a temp track along the way
So when I see the commercials on TV Yeah, with lots of notes and lots of back and forth. And it's interesting because there's always a temp track along the way.
So when I see the commercials on TV, I'm always like, that doesn't seem right to me,
because I've seen it for the last two months with just random dudes going, what's up?
Like, whatever.
You're gonna voice you just do.
Come on, let's go.
It's fun though.
It's neat though, working like the ESRB and working with, you know, developers and things,
because I've seen different cuts of ads.
So it'll be like, can fit and conform.
And it's like the ESRB,, there's certain things you can't do,
it's gonna air on TV, you can't punch someone in the face.
And so when you do something like Assassin's Creed,
where you're knocking guys in and stabbing them in the throat,
you just can't do that.
It's kind of like watching Joel Foguer outweighs
to creatively hide that stuff is pretty cool.
It's very talented.
Yeah, it's a lot of fun.
But doing that led to working more on achievement
on our stuff with Jeff in the office, and then that kind of Jeff sort of doing that led to working more on achievement hunter stuff
with Jeff in the office, and then that kind of Jeff sort of pulled me in
and then brought me in full time to do a achievement hunter.
And then what happened, Jeff?
And then I've been here for four and a half years.
And then he bought a house.
And a donkey.
And a donkey later.
Yeah.
You know, you can, I would say you couldn't rent goats.
As far as I know, there's a service, I don't know if it's an
astronaut where you can rent.
I think a lot of like big corporate campuses do it, where they rent goats to just come and eat
the grass.
And that's what I saw in Seattle, the packs.
Right.
Yeah.
Right.
That's what they were doing.
That's what we got started into all this stuff.
Okay.
So the urban goat, the urban goat you saw where they're on the berm eating the grass.
Yeah.
It's part of a, there was a sign up that says, you know, we're saving money and we're like,
you know, protecting the environment by not using lawn mowers to do this.
So let me tell you something that was really different about this pack.
No.
Is that we went to Washington State.
Washington State is now a state where marijuana is legal.
Oh yeah!
That's entirely different.
Everywhere you go in Seattle smells like pot.
I guess it happened between the last packs and this packs, right?
Absolutely.
And like, you can order pot to your house like a delivery like a pizza.
Wow.
Like, and...
Do like actual like marijuana or like cookies or something like that.
I don't know.
Is there a problem with people who want to do it, but you know, I didn't do it.
Yeah.
Is there a legal amount you can have, you know, or can you just get like, I went 40 pounds
of marijuana.
I think you need a prescription, right?
No, no.
They don't wash it.
Yes, recreational.
So in Colorado and in Washington state,
it's recreational uses.
Yeah, they have shops set up that you could just go
and invite.
Yeah.
I saw this documentary on the one in Colorado,
like the first ever legal weed shop there.
Yeah.
And I was telling it was I was washing
the Colorado most liberal.
And I think California is the one where you got to have a card
and the prescription.
Yeah.
But the prescription is like a place that you got to hold.
I got a cold. You know, we have a mayor I want to leave on the outside of it. You're like, that's where you go to. Yeah. I had a is like a place that you got a cold. It really has a mirror,
I wanna leave on the outside of it.
You're like, that's where you go to get your mirror.
I had a friend that we were at,
when I was in San Francisco recently,
he was saying his friend got the card
or whatever you have to have to buy pot legally.
And he went into this place,
it was like a doctor's office,
big quotes around that.
And the receptionist is like,
just go in there and say yes to everything he asks.
And he's like, okay,
and he goes into a room
and it was just a monitor with Skype open and a doctor sat down
And been like so I hear you have problems with your eyes and he's like yes. Have you tried doing this?
Yes, have you tried doing this? Yes. Have you taken this before? Yes, okay?
Here you go and like like this signed off something and faxed it over and then I was like all right here
You go and printed this card out there
You know there's some guy who was stoned when he went in and was like yes, no, I mean
Shit believes comes back like that's not how it works. Yeah, it's like try again, buddy. Yeah. Oh shit
I was in an earthquake. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's been a San Francisco
So you went up to do a thing. Can you talk about the thing you want to do? Um, we went to go visit a video game company
I'm not sure if I can talk about that. Yes, sorry. Yes, Ashley says okay. Margo's up. Yes
So I went to 2k to check out evolve and borderlands,
the pre-sequel and both incredible.
I mean, borderlands, Vila, borderlands,
this is more borderland.
So it's great and evolve is incredible.
The new borderlands pre-sequel has a really interesting
mechanic in it, which is you have, it's on the moon, right?
Yeah.
And so you have to have oxygen.
Yeah.
You have to keep getting oxygen.
Yeah.
So it's like, it's almost like playing an entire game
under water in a way.
Yeah. Well, I mean, there's like areas that are like, you know, sort of pressurized,
so you can get in there and you're fine, and then your oxygen level goes up and down.
And I think for fights, you can set up like an oxygen dome.
So I think that might be one of the characters, that special ability.
But like, you can play as a, not clank, Jesus Christ, the robot.
Clap trap.
Clap trap.
You can play as clap trap, and he's a robot, so he doesn't need oxygen.
So you don't have to worry about it with him, which is kind of cool.
He's more of a support character.
Playing his clap trap seems like a nightmare to me.
Yeah.
Because he talks constantly.
He's an annoying character by design.
Yeah.
And so I always get annoyed by the first person disembodied voice of like, oh yeah.
You know, when you kill something, it's like, like, you do knoook him.
Yeah, it does exactly.
You knoook him.
But if I, you know, clap trap, I was just like, I couldn't imagine like that would just I would want to
just turn the game off the window. But it's interesting. So the game. No, maybe
they handled it right. Yeah, I mean, the game takes place between one and two. So
it's the prequel to two, but a sequel of one. So it's where it falls on that. So
you're playing with handsome Jack or you're playing for handsome Jack. He's like
he's your boss and the game. But it's before his face is all fucked up. So it's
kind of cool and evolve is just awesome. That was the first time I got any hands on the evolve and man that game is fun
But what did you play as I played is pretty much everything?
I think I wrote it as all of them. Yeah, I said never played as the monster
I played as a monster twice and I won both times. I think I played as a trapper almost exclusively
But I played played across there's four different kinds of hunters
And then there's two sets of the four different
Classes and there will be three eventually. Yeah, right?
We saw two.
There's still there's 12 characters total and we've only seen eight so far.
And apparently there's three, going to be three monsters.
We've only seen two so far.
It seems to me a game on the surface is pretty straightforward.
But the balance is what I think the thing they're working on the most in the game because
that game's been playable.
We played it at PAX East and it was very, very, very playable.
I mean, I could not distinguish between that and a game that was released that week.
It was that polished at PAX East.
Now granted, that was one set of hunters and one monster, the Goliath, I think is what
they call it.
Yeah, now they have the Kraken.
They have the Kraken, it's the other one.
They had that one at E3.
Yeah, he won't be able to fly.
That was a few months later.
They had the Kraken at E3 because Pax East is in,
I think, late March or early April. But now the game just got delayed. It was going to
come out in the fall and they got delayed till next spring. I think February, I think
there's like five triple A titles coming out in February now. Which is like, that's the
new, that's the new November is going to be February and that's just going to be a nightmare
for it. The only thing I can think that would delay that game is working on the balance
for that. And I think that's, that game is going to be interesting when it comes out, because a lot of people
are going to be hyped about it.
They're going to jump into it, and I'll be curious to see what the learning curve does to
people.
Like, they might have to constantly rebalance that game as people, as the skill set of the
audience, and playing it kind of locks in.
I can see it as a fighting game where it's kind of like you're, it's at this one versus
four.
So it's kind of like, you have to make sure anyone at any time could win, you know,
not like one class could overpower the other.
I feel like day one, the monsters are gonna destroy.
And then like a weekend, everyone's gonna get stuff
figured out and the hunters are gonna be overpowered
or gonna feel that way.
And I just feel like it's gonna be,
it's gonna be an issue game to watch its evolution.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Nice fun.
Alright, let me read this,
not talk about my earthquake story, okay?

teeth
uh... yep
nice
uh...
yeah we were uh... we were out there in uh...
so we were at the rest of the system and i would have a major on it though before
you two far off the okay i talk about me is rather so
uh... that was one of the books they suggested which is being made to move
i read a really cool thing about maize runner
where i think that cinemas are having to do this thing where they're having to compete with how bad That was one of the books they suggested which is being made to a movie. I read a really cool thing about maize runner where I
Think that cinemas are having to do this thing where they're having to compete with how bad ass
Home theater experiences are getting. Yeah, I think I think that's one of the main reasons why three and
That's why you always comes back like that like they'll release HTT. V's and now three. You suddenly popular again
Yeah, and now 4K TV's are okay. Oh three. He's still popular again. Yeah, that happens so
maize runner Yeah, it's okay. Old 3D is still popular again. Yeah, that happens. So Mazerunner, um, there's four theaters in America that are like this and Mazerunner, I just read an article in the Hollywood reporter about this
Um, they sent up cinemas so you're looking at the screen and then they put a screen over here and a screen over here
I'll full cinema screen. So it's like and what I'm demonstrating if you can't see what I'm talking about is a basically
180 degree wrap around with three cinema screens and
talking about is a basic 180 degree wrap around with three cinema screens. And Maze Runner is going to have that experience in those four theaters where they
went and added like side stuff for full immersion. Wow. For like what kind of like
any movie? Any movie? No, I think that films have to be filmed for it. So
Maze Runner was the article I read that they made the decision after they
filmed Maze Runner to do this, so they added digital elements.
They like enhance the movie to take advantage of this.
Okay. Well, that, which seems like a huge commitment for four theaters.
Yeah. Well, you know, I, but it can be the thing where it's like you want to go to that theater to see that movie and that's a special experience.
Yeah. And it could also be that the people pushing the technology invested in them to do that. So, yeah, that's like D box.
Like D box apparently was pretty big for a while.
Like our friend Flash was huge debauchs.
You'd always go to that.
That's the one that like shakes around, right?
De-bocked.
Is that the one that moves around or is that?
Yeah.
So it seats that it sounds like something
by the shitty amusement park.
But it seats you sitting that interact with the movie.
And you have like a little button that you can push
that like increases or lowers the intensity of it.
I would put that shit all the way.
It didn't like fuck yeah you would.
It didn't like fast, fast, fast, fast. Yeah. Man, this is fast five. I would put that shit all the way. Yeah, you would They did it like fast
Five fast five speaking of shaking around so I was in I was in
Shagway, yeah, thank you and and so we were there and my buddy he just bought a condo and
Actually like his glass. It was nice
So he just bought a condo and like the hardest amber c Francisco and as a welcoming president or as a housewarming gift to him, we bought a like a queen size inflatable mattress
for him so we could then stay at his place and actually crash on there as good deal. Yeah,
I like that. Good deal. Pretty nice. So you know, buy him a hundred dollar mattress and stay
for two nights for free or whatever. But anyway, so we were there and we all went out to dinner
and then I took Katie back to the condo to let her relax and so
We left and I went back out and then went back, you know went and drank and then came back and
As I was getting to like into the bed
It's like when I got into it was kind of shifts around a lot. I was like, okay
If you basically push on the whole thing with shift and it's like all right, so we're laying in there and
Wake up and then my friend went back out to go drinking some more so I like it was just Katie and I there
I wake up in the middle of the night and all of a sudden the bed's like moving.
It feels like someone's pushing the bed.
And I was like, okay, I look over
and I was looking for my buddy to see if he was messing
with us and he wasn't there.
And I was like, oh, where does moving?
Oh shit, this is an earthquake.
And I'm sitting like, oh God, we're in an earthquake.
And then I immediately look around,
and there's nothing above us.
There's nothing within falling distance of us.
So I'm like, okay, we're safe.
And then, but like the cabinets are rattling and stuff.
I'm like, oh, holy shit, this is.
How high up was that?
Shit earthquake. There's a third floor.
Okay. So it wasn't like crazy or anything, but man, it was,
it was weird. It's, it's unnatural.
Is it the first earthquake you've ever been?
Yeah, yeah.
Apparently it was a pretty big one too.
It was at 6.1.
Yeah, it was all over Twitter.
Yeah, but I saw that and actually got out before it.
Yeah, she flew out that morning, but yeah, that was pretty exciting
I was like, huh, that's neat. I've never been in one now. I can say I've been in earthquake
So now I've seen a tornado with my own eyes. I've been in earthquake
I've been through a hurricane and so I don't know I need them like a monsoon and like a blizzard to get through that
I made like my my bingo checklist of all of my like natural disasters is covered
Mm-hmm. What do you think of the weirdest thing to be in an earthquake?
Like, oh, I was on a trampoline in an earthquake.
Or I was on a horse.
Or, you know what, it's a horse.
Oh, we're going back to the horse.
No, you just went to the horse.
The horse should probably freak out.
So I don't really want to be on a horse.
If you said I was on a horse during an earthquake,
I wouldn't ask, where was the earthquake?
I mean, that's why we got a horse.
I wouldn't be asked. Or like in a pool or something.
Like if you're in a pool.
Like how does that work?
Yeah, because I imagine that's probably like,
it ripples a little bit.
So the new big thing is like, have you,
like, a box chair?
Yeah.
Have you heard of people going to like,
deprivation chambers?
Oh yeah, that's like the new big thing.
There's one in Austin.
Yeah, yeah.
So my friend did one up in Fort Worth and he's like,
it's really cool.
He's checking out.
I imagine being one of those during an earthquake.
That would mess with you,
because it's pitch black and just, you're in like a foot of water.
What is this thing?
What is this thing?
It's like meditation, right?
Well, basically what it is is you rob your mind
of any external input.
So they put you in a tank of water
that the salinity kind of balances out your buoyancy,
so you float, and then the water is the same temperature as your skin, so it's supposed to feel like, you're not
supposed to feel it either, you know, it's supposed to be like perfect temperature like dead even with
your skin. And then they close the lid, like you put you in a pod, it closed the lid where there's
no sight and no sound. And you're flying on your back. And you're floating in this thing. From what
I understand, I've never done it before. This is what I understand.
And then the total sensory deprivation and then when your mind does not have anything,
it just starts to generate it.
So I've heard people have hallucinations, they have pure thoughts and all this stuff.
And people swear by it.
And there's one in Austin, I believe it's called the Zero Gravity Institute.
I think that's what it's called.
That's it.
Yeah, Dr. Knaip Patrick.
We should check that out.
I would not get that.
I don't know if I'd want to do that.
I would not.
I don't trust my own name.
I don't think I'm gonna be in my own place.
I'm not sure.
Yeah, could you like get out if you want?
Yeah, yeah, there's a parent,
well at least the one my buddy went to,
he said there was a button you could hit to turn the light on.
Okay.
And then I'm sure it was like a panic switch or something.
Yeah, I would, yeah, I would, I would freak out.
Yeah, so here's what it looks like if you're watching the stream at home.
Kind of looks like a, looks like a gym shower.
Yeah.
Or a freezer.
It looks like a giant white box.
Yeah, I imagine some pod type thing like a,
do you go and naked?
I don't know.
Why is that your first question?
Well, then it's just,
well, here's the question to it.
If you go and naked, is it just a bunch of guys like,
what else am I going to do? I'm going to have it. If you go and naked, is it just a bunch of guys like what else am I gonna do?
Just jerking off in the deprivation chambers. Is that your first thought when we make it is what I guess I
just when you're by yourself, that's immediately we go to not like all right
I'm gonna enjoy this peaceful time with myself and see what comes up with it's like no spanking time
Joining a peaceful time. Joining a few.
How much is something like that cost?
Are you looking that up right now, Burns or?
No, no, I was like, I was like,
I got questions on Twitter actually.
See if anybody had anything.
Man, 75 boats.
So Patrick, have you done this before?
No.
You see, I was pretty, the web said.
Some reason, how's that spec'd?
We should, we should.
Patrick, our producer is saying,
giving us, feeding us information about this.
It says it's $75, but that he's never done it before.
Looks like he's wearing a bathing, although it's just a picture of it.
Looks like it's maybe a sticker from the thing.
Yeah, fucking skip leg name, bro.
Yeah, I'm holding up that.
I like that kind of experience, sort of that peaceful experience.
So go do it. I'll give it a shot. Go do it.
Go build one. I'll tell you something I did did that I'll might catch him flat for I don't know maybe not probably not I got him
I've gotten massages before like I got a subscription in a local place get massages
Is that a weird thing? I know another dude recently. I don't want to call him out because get him get mad at me
But he said he'd never gotten a massage before and he was thinking about getting one coming up and it was like a
Decision oh no, they're awesome. What is it a weird thing? No massage?
It's not a lot. I've got massage. I've only gotten two in my life in there
But Chris when you say you say weird smile on your face
No, no, it's just like it's it's been on the load for five minutes for he came in
So you do you just get a couple goats and you lay on the ground
Back and then you punch your masseur.
No, I've never done, I've never had like a, I mean get out of here.
No, I started biting you. That's when you start punching, stuck your bones in my seat.
I've never done like an actual like, or not a, one of those massages. Chris, listen,
you know what I can see it, it but no when he said the massage thing
Just get away. Yeah, I the only massage that into we're just normal massages
Rubbing your arm before? I wish sitting on the audio
by guess I would wait there's nothing more unnormal than Chris describing
physically what normal looks like. He's like picking in his own arm like slowly.
Usually if you're demonstrating massage you go like this you pretend to rub shoulders.
Yeah okay. You thumbs. Yeah. Rosé to thumbs. video game style. All right. Yeah, so
Chris doing it. No, it's not this
You're missus. I got mayor. I've only had normal massages
That's what I'm saying. We're the record. All right. So anyway, so
Wait, so where are you going with that?
I all I said was the massages are nice
And he's had one so we've all had massage the whole normal totally normal so anyway so we were getting massages and I called up and I was like
Hey, I've got like three free hours. Can you book a massage here?
They said sure your your masseuse will be will be Preston and I was like hmm
I've never had a dude massage me before all right. I'll give a shot. I'm never going back
Really it was awesome like Like they have like,
sprinkled in their hand. Never going to go back the old way.
Yeah, yeah. I've never go back to the dude. No,
it's typically you get like, you know, like a female massage,
a male and vice versa. And so this the first time I like,
I actually had a guy rubbed my shoulders like, holy shit.
Like I've never had that much pressure and stuff before.
Yeah, it's really good. So anyway, so I totally recommend
you get a guy masseuse. It's the way way to go I had a massage one time that was the
where I was in my life that's on fire I was saying I had the massage one time
like professional massage is the worst experience of my life why is that I
don't know where in the communication process they thought that I wanted
like a deep tissue massage but I did not yeah and considering this was my first
massage I've ever had.
You were probably like nervous.
And what did I want to say?
Exactly.
And it hurt like the entire, it was a 16 minute massage.
It hurt the entire time.
And I was in physical pain like the whole time just like.
No.
In pain like that.
What, who was the masseuse?
Well, it was a woman.
I don't know her name.
What'd she look like?
Cheryl.
She was a white lady. Oh yeah, let me taste some. Let me taste some. This is a warning to name. What she looked like. Cheryl. She was a white lady. Let me taste some. Let me taste some.
This is a warning to everybody. Not to be racist. That means I'm about to be racist.
If you see a short Asian lady coming to give you a massage, run the fuck away.
They're the strongest people on the fucking planet. They are and they are mean.
They are like the massage in Asia means like we're gonna make you scream at the top
of your lungs for an hour so that you appreciate the rest of your life
That's what it is basically. It's unbelievable. Yeah, especially like like they have I never done it
But I've read reports like foot massage. They have those places like all over San Francisco
They have those those foot massage places. It's a it's a big thing in Asia
Reflexology, you know, yeah, there you go and apparently that is fucking brutal
But everybody who does it swears by it.
People said people like it.
And it released a lot of tension I guess.
And I apparently had a lot of knots in my muscles
that she would work all the way through my back
and I would feel it going all the way down
and it would be just excruciating.
I got physically sick after it.
They say that's a thing like toxins coming out.
Yeah, I actually got a fever and I would have the chills
for like four days after. You're supposed to drink a lot of water after you get up. Yeah, I did not a fever and I would have the chills for like four days after you drink a lot of water after you get
Yeah, I did not know that yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, I'm a little that always sounds a little sketchy
It's like you got toxins seeping out of your muscles. I'm like
What do you talk? I don't talk as you shut up. What are you talking about?
Barbarian
Region
But I know it like this so it was it was awesome and then like I was actually sore the next day like like my back
Was hurting the next day because like you actually done it properly for the first time in my life and like okay
That's what a massage was did you cool. Yeah, cuz yeah, cuz I'm very high paint tolerance
And so like basically when I when I tell him like like how hard do you want him like try to hurt me like you won't hurt me
Try to hurt me and he got the closest anybody ever has and it was fantastic. I said I'm a fucking jackhammer. Don't laugh at me.
Katie's off behind his laughing. So the other thing too that I've seen I think it's called
Goy Shah. It's like they take a like a bone handle thing and they use that tiger bump and they just
rub like,
there's a couple of weird things in massage like,
cupping that looks like you got attacked
by a freaking octopus, Monty's girlfriend, does that?
Oh, I saw that on this thing, TV show.
Yeah, they like take a jar, it's a little round jar,
well you've done that to be a round jar,
it's just like jar, and they put a flame in it,
so they heat the air in it, then they immediately put it
on your back, now with the flame at the burn you you but so then the air contracts and it sucks in there
because of vacuum. So it's like sucking sections of your skin up and you've done it Barb?
No I've seen pictures of it but that's dangerous. Yeah there you go. Oh that's actually the thing
a device I've seen we're showing a picture here of somebody using a had a cupping device on them
and it's like a gun. It's like there's a bunch of huge nipples on the back. That's a little
those little things and then sometimes the they'll like, they use like,
I guess oil or whatever in your back.
So kind of lubricant and then they slide those things around.
But that'll leave like, it looks like somebody got attacked
by an octopus, they have sucker marks all over them.
But the, goi-shaw is like, the pictures from that stuff,
it's like, you know, the, the big Chinese philosophy
of like, meridians and stuff, which I don't necessarily believe.
And but they go along though.
So people have like these like, big, huge like red red like massive. It looks like you can see the ribs in
their back, but it just bruises along their back. And people fucking swear by it. They just swear by it.
And I think the logic I read is if you rub the area and it turns red like that, it's like that's
because it shows that there's stagnant blood. It's like no rubbing their hard as hard as hard as you can with a bone handle.
You're treating a bruise.
That's totally different.
Yeah.
It's like if I hit you in the hammer, it's like you had brain damage.
Yeah.
And that's how we tested it with a fucking hammer.
All right, Bernie, so I think you might owe me an apology.
Nope.
Yes.
I'm pretty sure I don't.
We need to talk about this.
I said Guardians of the Galaxy was going gonna be incredible and one of the best
Meal here. Okay, go ahead and you and God's both shit on it hard. I shit on the trailer for it
I did trailer was amazing, but I know anyone to think that I wanted to move you bed
And when I saw the movie I came on immediately and said how great was I go in trying to hate the movie all right
Now it is the number one grossing movie of the year and it has become the number one highest grossing Marvel first movie. So it beat Iron Man one as the
highest grossing start of a franchise. What a good like new IP. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. sequel to multiple. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, that's the tie-up sequel. Dude, that thing was speaking with Vincere's two. Have you seen pictures of the vision? Oh, no, please don't.
No, please don't. I'm so excited. Okay. I won't take anything. So they put up pictures of the vision. Please don't have so excited
There's some convention and there's like a big wall thing and that's all the characters like all up
It's okay. My Twitter feeds about a photo pictures the vision. I'm sure
I mean like it's like like this is just kind of a grainy photo, but it's like, oh, shit, that's the vision.
Cool.
So Betty gives a good back rub.
Yeah.
That's all Jack had think of that.
Growing up as a kid, reading the Avengers, the vision was always like the key Avengers.
Like he lasted through so many, like, different teams.
He was the first group in the Avengers, right?
Yeah.
I don't know how many people know that, like, reading the comics. Like, you guys know who the Avengers are, right?
That team is not static.
Like, there's like a weird rule that the Avengers can't have more than six members, and
they just rotate through them.
Yeah.
At least there was when I was reading the Avengers growing up, and they would just constantly
rotate through them.
And then, a lot of what the movies are based on now are kind of the re-invisioned, rebubed
versions.
Like, the theory is not a black dude in the comics.
That's what he is.
And one of the universe is now.
No, the rebooted universe.
Yeah, yeah.
Which I think started as the ultimate.
Yeah, that's not right.
Well, even like Guardians of the Galaxy.
What's the genre I see here when you need them?
Yeah, the Guardians of the Galaxy,
the cast from the movie, none of those characters
were in the original Guardians of the Galaxy.
Like, I mean, another thing I didn't know.
What's that?
Because when I was making fun of the movie,
I think my main complaint was,
they're making movies now about the most obscure
Guardians of the Galaxy, I can certainly be like a 70s comic
that nobody read like,
Gazzler or Cloak and Dagger,
but it wasn't, it was based on a 2008 reboot
that was really very popular.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But like Yondu, the guy with the Mohawk,
like he's an original Guardians of the Galaxy,
he's in the original crew, like Michael Rooker's character and
Dracks is very different to in the comics. I just changed quite a bit
I really Dracks is actually really smart in the comics like he's actually a really intelligent dude
And they kind of make more pretty smart in the movie kind of make him a brutal in this
You know, it's kind of like he has no sense of humor anything and like took everything literal, you know
Yeah, I think it was over my muscle. Yeah, that's a good. But I don't know everything about Guardians of the Galaxy
was fantastic. It was awesome. I've seen it in theaters now. I think twice, maybe three times.
And yeah, it's awesome. I do agree that I didn't think the trailers were great.
I didn't make me like want to see the movie any more or less. Well, see, to me, the trailer,
it didn't show any major plot points. It has showed you a bunch of cool visuals. And
it was like, I have no idea what that is. I didn't show any major plot points. It has showed you a bunch of cool visuals, and I was like,
I have no idea what that is. I want to find out what that is.
That's why I'm saying it was awesome. Yeah.
So I didn't spoil anything for you. This was like,
there's a bunch of crazy-looking shit, including a raccoon on a tree's back with a giant gun.
I was waiting for that song the whole time, though.
Oh, good, Chaco. Oh, good.
There's a lot of good music in that one, too.
Another good soundtrack.
The soundtrack is probably my favorite one of any movie recently.
I didn't think it was, I thought it was live-y-handed, but that's okay.
What's that?
It's like too integrated for some reason.
Well, you know, he actually, so James Gunn wrote the script with the music, like he wrote
the music into the script.
So it was literally written for it.
And there's only one song in the movie that wasn't in the script and I forget what that
one is.
I don't actually don't know what that one is.
I'm happy for it to probably. It was too expensive. That is like the most expensive song to license. No, it's just a common one
that they license that gets sung a lot. I don't think it's the most expensive. And I wouldn't
imagine. I wouldn't be qualified the most expensive restaurants. I'm something beautiful
really. That's really like a beetle song. But I think Guardians of the Galaxy, which are
most of them are by Michael Jackson's estate estate now about most of the Beatles library at the advice of Paul McCartney
You hear that's right. No, they made a video together called say say say they made a song Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson the mid 80s
And Michael Jackson was like it was after bad and what was the his off the wall?
What was the moment had Billy Jean and I think it's off the wall thriller thriller thriller was the thriller was the thriller was the big one
Okay, so it's after thriller thriller I just couldn't think of
the Navy album he had a ton of money
and he was probably one of the biggest
stars in the world and he's getting
advice from Paul McCartney what to do
and Paul McCartney said well she
had a lot of money you might want to
invest in like music catalogs and
Michael Jackson's like okay so he
bought the Beatles and like Paul McCartney's
interviews about that yeah I should have
just kept my mouth shut because then
like he licensed it out for like night key and stuff like that.
And stuff to Beatles probably would have never done.
That was a great Michael Jackson impression too.
Thank you.
Well, he's actually my Mike Tyson.
You know, the Beastie boys actually is one,
or the remaining Beastie boys just won a lawsuit
where someone used their music in a commercial.
Because the Beastie boys said they would never,
ever allow their music to be in commercials. and I think it was like Red Bull or Nike or someone put their like body moving in
a song and they sued the shit out of them on one really yeah so that's nice kind of cool good for
the BC boys yeah apparently 2013 here's an interesting article this is from the Daily Mail
Sir Paul McCarty this is dated August 15th 2013 from the Daily Mail. Sir Paul McCartney, this is dated August 15th 2013 from the Daily Mail
or the Mail Online, which I, if you have more here you can tell me this is reputable or not.
Reputable or not. Sir Paul McCartney is set to win back the rights to the Beatles song,
the veteran rocker 71 lost ownership of the publishing rights to the song T-Core wrote
with late bandmate John Lennon.
Sir Paul was furious when his former friend Michael Jackson outbid him to buy the associated
television corporations back catalogue which included the Beatles tracks in 1985.
The King of Pop paid a reported 47.5 million.
That's it.
For between 160 and 260 Beatles classics including yesterday and let it be.
However, the 1970s 60 U.S. copyright act means Sir Paul will now be able to claim back the
titles once more in five years according to the Sun.
Interesting.
So he's going to get it back.
Paul's been fuming for decades.
It's as much personal as business.
Now he'll get back what is rightfully his.
47 million dollars for the entire Beatles catalog.
47.5 million.
That is ridiculous.
Yeah, you could license that out like to like, that's like four commercials. for the entire Beatles catalog. 47.5 million. That is ridiculous.
You could license that out like to like,
that's like four commercials and you can do that.
Yeah, four commercials you probably get back.
I think there was a like the role,
I want to say it was Microsoft wanted for Windows 95
when they introduced the start button.
They started me up, they wanted to start me up the rolling stones.
And the rolling stones that were like,
okay, you want to license our song for your software commercials?
It'll be, and they came up with a ridiculous number.
They're three million.
And Bill Gates was like, okay.
Yeah.
At the time, it was like an astronomical amount.
Yeah.
And they were just like, and my Bill Gates was like, okay.
Okay.
Rockstars have a lot of money.
Check this out.
I make that in five minutes.
I'm gonna see, I'll look up how much they actually pay for that.
What's there a stat that said like,
the time it takes for Bill Gates to lean down
and pick up a $20 bill, like, or a $100 bill,
he's already made more than that.
Not anymore, dude's given away, I think 25% of his wealth,
so far, but yeah, you're right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like, it's cheaper for him to keep walking, you know.
Let's go to say, yeah, but he's doing it.
By the time he bends down and picks it up,
he's made more money in interest.
Yeah, that's the thing.
We talked about this on a recent podcast, where the difference between a million and a billion is astounding.
Like if you were going to count to a million, it would take you about two weeks.
But if you're going to count to a billion, it would take you like 56 years or something like that.
Yeah, it's just it's a it's a big jump.
Let's say.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it must must not suck to be Bill Gates.
No, Elon must have shot off a another rocket.
Crash one too. Huh? Well, Elon must have shot off another rocket. He's pretty good.
He's pretty good.
No, it's intentionally crash one.
You don't want to start spreading things like that.
Are you sure he'd test like that?
Yes, so what happened once?
It's like, yeah, I meant to do that.
No, it was a test rocket.
So they have the rocket now.
The Falcon 9 is what it's called.
And that's the one they're using.
They actually just launched one yesterday
where they put a satellite in a space.
And that's the rocket they've developed and it's done.
They're making a test version of a newer one and they were testing, they test the launch
thing and it got in the air and it hit enough of like the abort protocols that they blew
it up in the air because instead of it like launching off and like suddenly it's in
McGregor, Texas and killing people, they're like, we'd rather blow it up over farmland.
And so they blew it up.
Well, that's a crashed rocket.
Well, it's a test, again, it's a test rocket yeah, they had safety precautions where if something were to have that's like you can't fire me
I quit
But I'm the same line but they're saying by the end of next year
They're gonna try to like well, they're gonna I think not the next flight by me the one after that
I don't even see the video of these rockets that take off and then they move and they come back in the land, like they land upright.
It's part of the, isn't it part of the SpaceX like goals?
Yeah, so the reusable rockets is what they're doing.
And so there's an image of the exploded rocket if you're watching at home.
Really impressive.
Yeah, it's just like a piece of cauliflower that's what we get.
Yeah, looking at the world's sheet-easics fireworks.
So the next thing they're trying to do is $48 million dollars is going up and flying. It's a huge amount of money. It's a huge amount of money. It's a huge amount of money. It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money.
It's a huge amount of money. It's a huge amount of money. It's a huge amount of money. It's a huge amount of money. It's a huge amount of money. It goes wrong, it'll hit water. And right now, they've just been crashing into the water. They've been acting like they're gonna land them,
and then they basically get down to where they would stop,
and then it's fall over.
But now they're actually gonna put a pad out there
for them to try to land on.
And then if that goes well,
I think that they successfully do that two or three times,
then the FAA, or I don't know who's in charge
of the air space of rockets,
is gonna allow them to try to do it on land.
Then if they do it on land enough times, and it's like, okay, you're a proof-to-land
rockets and reuse them.
And if they land on the pad in the ocean, everybody gets a free taco bell.
We have fogged five wings from pluckers.
What was that promotion the Taco Bell did?
That something was going to crash, a satellite or something was going to come out of orbit
and they put a big thing out in the ocean and they said if it hits that we will give Everyward in America free taco
You remember that? No. Yeah, it was it was a Taco Bell promotion. I'll look it up all your reading. That's gonna go Olympics thing
Didn't they do something like that where it's like a Taco Bell metal
Retapoll they just look like that it sports events a lot
Yeah, I know when I went to hockey games are like if our team scores more than five goals
Everyone gets a free slice of it. Yeah, I remember when you tea basketball,
if they would score 85 points,
everyone in the arena would get like five free wings
from blockers or something.
And so when they got to about 80,
everyone started chanting chicken wings.
Chicken wings, chicken wings, they scored,
everyone lose their mind.
And so March 19th, 2001, Taco Bell is offering a free taco

All right, let me read this for a quick.
So good way to start like get a war going or something.

That's a good way to get a war going.

Thank you Squarespace.
Thank you Squarespace.
Thank you.
And just in case anyone is curious and I know that you are,
I checked free taco from space.com is available.
Excellent.
We have a lot of more.
If you want to run a lucrative promotion.
What do you think would have happened if it landed there?
Everyone got to be taco.
But how do they manage that?
They take insurance out of the hotel.
If everyone in America gets a free taco bell taco,
that's 350 million people, that would cost like $10,000.
It's not going to be a million.
But how do they know someone already got one like,
I don't just come back in with a mustache.
I'm talking to some tacos.
The Bill Gates have to bend down to pick it up and tie.
They do, they do a day where everybody gets a free taco.
And Taco Bell will be like, we gotta suck this up.
Oh my God.
Do you remember when McDonald's used to do tax day
where they would have nickel burgers
So like like burgers would be five cents and cheeseburgers would be ten cents and you could get a max of ten of wow
Yeah, I remember I was in college when that happened and I remember all my friends. I was for tax day
Yeah, so like April whatever you guys just starve yourself until that day
Love you go give them a buck and they give you ten burgers and it's like okay cool
But I would totally if if it was free toque of day,
I would go to a couple different docker places.
I've done that before.
I've done taco days, but just like things where they give,
like you just went to a bunch of different restaurants.
No, no, it was like,
some restaurant had some promotion where you dress up
or something and then you got to free.
That was Chick-fil-A.
Yeah, you fuckers all came to work in your pajamas that day.
Yeah, and then we had a bunch of free,
no, that's like a thing.
That's what they came with their pajamas.
Huh?
Chipotle does that for Halloween.
Yeah, yeah.
You're here in costume.
You get it.
Was it Chipotle or was it Chick filet?
It was both.
Different times.
Anything answers to the CH.
The founder of Chick filet just died.
Yeah.
That's unfortunate.
I can't have an ad.
There's a lot of celebrity S lately, a, a lot of big name S-Lately.
It's kind of sad.
Yeah, Joan Rivers died.
Yeah, Joan Rivers died.
And it's really interesting.
She's a pretty, you know, Kentanker.
She was like a Don Rickle style comic, where she would make fun of everybody and made
fun of life in general.
But it is funny how people will immediately shift and become very respectful.
But people will talk about their impact and everything.
The biggest impact I took from Joan Grivers' career, which is, I don't think a lot of people
would remember this, but she was next in line to be the host for the tonight show after
Johnny Carson.
She was the guest host.
If Johnny Carson was not on the tonight show, it was her.
And this is back when there was like, that was it.
There was no David Letterman show on another network
It was that was the late night talk show the time show was a juggernaut and
Fox started as a network and
They made her an offer
To come over to Fox and did do a late night talk show to compete with Johnny Carson and she took the job
Completely and totally burned a bridge with Johnny Carson was like, you know, he's a bander
You know for life like never spoke to her again from what I understand and Fox canceled the show in a year like canceled her show
Like in like a year maybe year and a half and it was a huge like I saw interviews with her later
Where she said it was a huge regret that she had and now I don't know if she ever repaired her relationship with Johnny Carson
And Jay Leno became the guest host
and then took over, had a long career
as the host of the tonight show.
But yeah, she probably would have been the female host,
the first ever female host for late night talk shows
and she would have been on the tonight show
as the host, John Rivers.
And I think that kind of stuff is interesting
because it's like, you know, you gotta take risks in life.
You know what I mean?
And it was definitely a tough risk in her career.
But it was like, she had an opportunity to do something.
She did it.
And it didn't pay off.
But that doesn't necessarily mean it was the wrong decision.
It was certainly a tough decision.
Yeah.
But I always, I always thought, you know, even though it didn't work out, I always respected it.
And I always thought it was really bold of her to do it.
Even though it was tough.
And it was, you know, a lot of people would say maybe it wasn't even the most
moral of decisions, but sometimes you just got to do what's right for you in your career and
it didn't pay off, but I always in a weird way respected it a lot, you know what I mean and it sucks what happened, you know, to her
in that regard. But- In my heart had a great speech about her at the Streaming's.
In my heart? Yeah. Yeah, I agree. She kind of ended it on like a, I don't like vulgarity in like stuff like that. Yeah, you know, and she ended on a vulgar
No, but she had a really a memory heart had the job to at the streamies do the tribute to Joan Rivers and she did it perfectly
Because she did it as a toast and not as a like
So that's the kind of way she figured that's the way the Joan wanted to do it. Joan had a web show where she would invite a bunch of guests on from
Web shows and I and be clever.
And she was like in her 80s and she's doing that.
And Mamrie was on it and Hannah Hart and like the Tyler Oakley.
Chester C I think also.
I have no idea what Tyler Oakley does. I freely admit that.
I don't either, but he is the big thing.
Enormous.
Yeah.
And VidCon, he was like the Beatles.
I mean, it was crazy.
I think he's just a vlogger.
He would walk in and people would just go ape shit. Yeah, I mean mobs mobs of people is he an LA guy
Yeah, I gotta say this one thing that kind of annoys me about the internet world like the internet personality world is how L.A.
Driven it is that ship is sale dude. Really that ship is totally sailed
You think so you know what was the moment? I realized that for me was the dude who made chocolate rain
Yeah, to LA Tazande Tazande and there was a whole like like I think he's still find it online
It was like a doctor pepper and yeah, yeah, like it was like dark chocolate or cherry cherry dark chocolate rain
Oh, yeah, yeah, he's like yeah, we all moved it. Hey, you know, I'm telling you my Taze on day boys
It's got a major voice. It's good. It's all it's I like it more than your Michael Jackson. Yes
It's like I like it more than you're Michael Jackson. Yes, thank you. I think a lot.
It's the same voice that you use when I try to imitate an orc.
He was talking about how he moved to LA and his whole scene there with everybody in
YouTube in LA and I was like, why?
Why?
Why?
You know, it's one of the most expensive places in the world to live.
It's one of the most expensive places in the world to produce content.
You know, if you want to like film on Venice Beach, you need to fuck Permit.
The cops will stop you for busing out of a video camp.
It's still so much competition in LA.
Yeah, and well, it's just, I don't know.
It's kind of the weird like, incestual thing though. Like you see, like, especially I see
like, viners and stuff all the time that are like big in LA and they're always in each
other stuff. And then you see these YouTube people, like, keep appearing in each other's
video because they're all in LA now. And like, I don't like that. I don't like that LA is like, you know, you have, they don't have to be there,
but it's like, you see people that are getting bigger almost like, like, artificially, like,
inflating themselves, because there's a lot of people in LA.
What do you mean artificially?
Well, I mean, like, so, like, say, for example, say, for example, like, we live in LA, and I'm like,
hey, I'm going to take my install, my user base, you know, I you know, I've got 200,000 people that watch me on the YouTube channel.
You've got half a million people.
I'm gonna go be in three of your videos
and then you put them up on your channel,
then you come be in three of mine,
and then my audience will jump to you,
you'll jump to my,
but like you're seeing a lot of that stuff.
And like it just,
that's collaboration, that's,
well it's collaboration to a point,
but it's still, you see a whole bunch of that.
And it feels, I don't know, kind of disingenuous.
Now do you feel like that could you're not participating in it? Cause we collaborate, like for Gaulet, we had a bunch of that. It feels, I don't know, kind of disingenuous. Now do you feel like that could not participate in it?
Because we collaborated, for Gauntlet,
we had a bunch of people on there as well.
Yeah, but I mean, that was sort of a one-off thing.
I'm talking, if we had, if every other Let's Play had
seen-anners popping into our gassy Mexican,
or Game Grumps, or the creatures,
if we did that constantly, that's a little bit.
People would love it.
I don't think so.
Because I mean, when we bring in new people,
Jack can't even talk right now.
It's our channel.
It's a whole process of getting someone to establish
and we did a scene-antern show.
We were actually on a show on time.
And that video with us didn't do as, you know.
Yeah, that's always the thing, too.
For instance, we did a whole week
of stuff with Mega 64, where we brought it down here.
And it was weird because they have a huge audience
and we have a huge audience.
And when we worked on stuff together,
that's like somehow was like,
people were not as interested in that stuff.
You know, I think that we really like to work
with those guys.
I think maybe the fact, I mean, we do.
And their audience, to be fair,
I'm not saying that like they brought us,
I've done, I'm saying their audience was not interested
in us being in their stuff.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was very equal opportunity negativity.
Yeah.
What it's, it's one of those things where I think our audience is very, I don't want to say
protective of us, but I think they kind of have this idea of what we are.
And they don't like idea of like throwing in more spices into our sort of mix.
You know what I mean?
You're very talking very specifically about your show.
Well, I'm talking about rooster teeth in general.
I mean, like gauntlet was kind of worked out because that show was sort of made for like it
It could have that sort of you know celebrity guest group and I think that worked
But I think that I think if you dropped in like if we dropped in guests in the podcast on a regular basis
I mean every time we brought guests on here. It's always been a little bit weird. It always depends the developers are harder because
We're being on mic, but when we had come a long people love that you know, and I thought that was a good one.
No, but I get what you mean.
I mean, we have a very dedicated audience and we're very lucky.
Absolutely.
And our audience is incredible.
Yeah, and that's like, I thought about that at the Streamies too, is that like, it's
your story of Rooster Over Time is the story of longevity.
And then, you know, we're sitting there at the Streamies and we, I wouldn't say, I try
to pick a point at which we were like the number one entertainment
entity online.
I can't really pick out a point in our 12 year history where we had that.
But the fact that we have a 12 year history, like we were making content with like the
guys from Home Star Runner, making content with the guild was big.
And when Dr. Horrible was big and then when the vloggers for YouTube were coming around
and you know, then lately with stuff like video game high school and all that stuff.
And it's like we were still in that room. You know, I mean, we're still going
and we still have an audience. It's like not everyone can tell that same story.
A lot of people coming on. Yeah, we've been waited. I mean, when YouTube started getting
big, we held out before we started putting stuff up on YouTube. It was probably a good
two or three years after YouTube kind of started it really hitting like social, like social
conscious. Like people really started looking at YouTube before we even got into that space.
Yeah, it was funny in that they had like
a little intro video at the Streamies
where they had like years go by on YouTube
and they would go to a place.
It was every career starts with the first upload.
Yeah. So it was every first upload.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And so it was going year by year and it said 2008
and it showed the first clip of Red versus Blue.
You ever wonder why we're here?
2008. And of course we cheered,
but it was just like that.
It's not, do you know why they showed 2008?
Because that's when it was uploaded.
I uploaded to YouTube.
Yeah.
Right, so that's the date they came out of.
We even specifically said, when we sent it to them,
that it's like this, you know, this video is date
of this 2008, but it was 2003 when it came out.
Yeah.
So I mean, that's a five year gap between, you know,
when we started producing content
and started putting content on YouTube. Yeah. But even just recently on Netflix, the season
1 through 5 stuff went up. That was content we produced between 2003 and 2008. And that
stuff just went up on Netflix. But I think that the story of Richie is more so than anything
else is the long-term stuff. Because stuff. Well, I mean, it's because it's a higher percent
because of dedication.
Well, I mean, we've been very careful
about adding people to the company.
Like that's, we've been okay.
Well, I mean, like I was something,
you know, I was employing number nine,
and that was after like, you guys have been around
for seven years, I think, but when I got hired on,
and I was number nine.
Yeah.
And now it's four and a half, five years later,
and we're up to like 80 something.
So like, it was a slow build, and kind of we've had an explosion of growth in the last few years
Yeah, but I was very very careful get the caravan we say 82 because I mean, it's like well
Yeah, but I'm just ramped down. So it's like it's you know, you know, it's it's I mean
Well, I was going through and counting up. It's like all the employees like you know like 40 or 50
Yeah, right now, but I think the big thing about our group is that we have a higher
percentage of people that work here that appear on camera. Yeah, like if you work here, there's a pretty
change you're gonna show up on camera at some point. Yeah, whether it's an art or life video or something like that.
What point are you Chris?
What am I doing? I was 12. 12.
Yeah, where Karen seems to disagree.
Yeah, we're here since it seems to disagree
Carous says I your mom says your page your page x is 15. I don't know why she's looking at your paychecks, but all right
I was gonna say there's a window. Okay. Yeah
anyway Oh, yeah, I mean they're talking about specific stuff like we've had guests on here that we're like oh
It's what are reacting to so many was saying so somebody pointed out we had Sheeran on it,
South by Southwest.
But people who went out Sheeran,
South by Southwest, how that podcast did not go well.
That was her show with you guys on it.
That's what I thought it was labeled as our show,
but she started like seem to host it.
I watched that too when I was really confused about it.
But that's a weird thing too,
because Sheeran was also on the podcast once before with Hannah.
Yeah.
And like that was not an issue in any way,
shape or form.
It was a very brief though.
At that moment in time, it was like, for whatever reason,
that sort of just didn't work.
You know what I mean?
It just didn't work.
But I think that's why people, that's the big story about going to LA.
Is it really the, the just organic opportunities and especially the access to talent, that's
a big deal.
It's a really big deal.
That's how people decide to work together.
But again, that drives me nuts that LA's become that place
I could have been so online. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Well, I mean it already was the place for TV and movies
I mean, it's you know, obviously spread around a little bit
But still like people think movies. They think Hollywood. Yeah, and it's like it drives me crazy that you know
LA also gets online. You know, if any place I mean hell why don't why don't Austin? You know Austin's an awesome
Gary, you know a good tech areas right in the middle of the country.
It's nice and sunny outside all the time.
I listen to it.
I tell people about it all the time.
Well, that's a nice thing about LA.
Never frigging rain.
That's true.
You had to bring out a truck to make rain basically.
Yeah.
Like, literally, if you ever watch any like night time scene, urban scene, notice that it
looks prettier if the roads are wet because the street lights reflect off it.
Those are people who get paid a lot of money to just dump water off the street.
Yes, water hose out there.
Every single night.
The PAs running out, they're running cables, they're running them back.
But I wouldn't say it's false.
I mean, I prefer to be an Austin.
There's some pluses and minuses.
But the people who make the effort to move to LA and make things happen, that's an effort.
But I mean, it's the internet.
It's a risk in a commitment. That's the whole idea. The internet was the place that anyone could go and anyone things happen. That's an effort. But I mean, it's the internet. It's a risk in a commitment.
That's the whole idea.
The internet was the place that anyone could go and anyone could be on if you wanted to.
I know you mean, you talked about moving rooster teeth to like, like, Minnesota or something
once, right?
Middle of Kansas, what's that?
Yeah, yeah, Middle of Kansas.
Where land was cheap?
Yeah.
I always used to do an example.
The discussion I was having with the guys was, you know, internet money, we don't have
a storefront.
We don't have a retail shop.
This money comes in wherever we are.
So wherever we make the content,
you know, we could go live in the South of France
or we go live in the middle of Kansas if we wanted to.
You know there's some kid in Kansas right now
who's just like,
damn it.
It's like a Topeka's pick up right now.
Somewhere that has really good internet.
Like I think Chat New, Gatenessi has amazing internet.
Well, Kansas City, right?
That's where Google Fiber first.
Yeah, Overland Park, Kansas. I think is where the first Google fiber thing was which by the way
Where the fuck is Google fiber is Google fiber? Yeah, right
Thank you Chris
To be super awesome specific. They're actually an onion Creek right now
So they're down by our old office like they're over by flashes place. Are they there? Yeah
Apparently it's starting in that area way south off. You're saying it's starting
No, is it in flashes literally walked outside and seen people on the polls and he's like are you guys putting in Google fiber?
And they said yes, so they did they pull out a script and go
I'm working with an internet company not to be confused as a grocery store, so but yeah, but anyway, it's it's on its way
If Google fiber turns out and they do it is installed in some parts of the world, but Austin was
going to be, I think, the third market.
Second, it was Kansas.
It was Kansas.
And then Austin was called up, and then Provo Utah was actually the next one.
But Provo already had Fiber installed in their lines already, so Google kind of piggybacked
off of the Fiber they had already installed, and so it's already widely available there.
So they actually kind of let past us.
And then they announced like 12 or 15 other cities
that it's coming to already.
So I think San Antonio might be getting it actually.
So anyway, there's a whole bunch of other cities
that are getting it soon, but Austin is supposedly next
on the list.
And supposedly, just saying that,
it was supposed to be spring of 2014.
But just the fact that like they've lowered prices
of every competition in Austin already
Go ahead and and speeds are going up. So I mean for our incumbent carriers. Yeah, yeah
Yeah, so I mean like time Warner is kind of the big monopoly here in Austin
And there's a few other ones of a time Warner so that like the general one they gave everyone a speed upgrade for free
So like not make it's not one of those areas
Oh really? Well, so I went from like 20 megs down to like a hundred megs down and I'm paying the same price
And so you probably wouldn't even get oh, I would absolutely get a fiber. Yeah
Google fiber just turns out to be this total vaporware phantom thing where they just say we're gonna put it in here
And all the incumbent carriers like oh well guess what yeah, you can suddenly turn into switch and suddenly everybody has awesome internet access
That's just as good. Yeah, I mean as long as people get better internet. Yeah, Google does make you more.
Google is like, yeah, now more people can download our stuff
and use our sites even more and faster.
That's exactly what you have.
Yeah, I think that would benefit them.
Exactly right.
Exactly right.
You know, you know, and that's what Google's all about.
Because Google owns like what, the top three,
most visited websites on the internet?
They, well, it's YouTube.
Google.com and something else.
They own the top two search engines,
which are Google and YouTube is now the number two search search engine, it's a Heddy Yahoo,
for search.
In which when they bought YouTube, it's like,
why did you do that?
Because you have Google video.
They just totally saw it, you know?
Even that when they bought the thermostat company,
Nest, which you introduced me to.
Oh, I got one of those.
Yeah, what do you think?
Oh, I got, so I got Brandon's.
Uh-oh.
What does that mean?
I bought Brandon's old.
You have to do my go.
No, are you controlling Brandon's thermostat? I bought brand new stuff. You're going to go.
Are you controlling brand?
I bought a brand new new place and it didn't fit on his wall or whatever.
So he's like, oh, I have this.
I'm like, sure.
So I bought it and I installed it.
And I was like, oh, this is really cool.
And I told him, I was like, hey, I think it's still connected to your phone.
Right.
Oh, no.
And he was like, oh, is it?
So then he started,
he would control my thermostat for like a while.
Really?
Yeah.
Why did he immediately reset that?
Well, because I wasn't home.
But my roommate was.
So he's like smoking him out.
Yeah, he'd be like, turn it down to,
he was like, 60, you know, it was like 101 degrees
and then it like, he'd sit on his phone,
he'd like, go back down, he'd just like, and then it like he'd sit on his phone and go back down,
he'd just like, and then go to 16 and change to Celsius.
And he's like, all the stuff.
My AC is out in my house.
It's been out for almost a week because of all my travel.
I haven't had a time to like organize somebody coming out to look at it.
It actually hasn't been that bad.
Yeah.
It's just, it's okay, the house keeps its temperature okay.
That's cool.
So I said,
We've got a lot of trees out there too.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I live in kind of a wudzie part or not a wudzie, but like just more older part of yeah when when we were out in San Francisco
when actually around with San Francisco like it was 85 degrees and the people they're like oh my god
It's so high. Like you know sweating and shorts and like little t-shirts like no, this is beautiful. You don't understand
We've actually had a really good summer. We keep talking about
Yeah, it's been a nice and mild summer. We got that little streak of hotness, but I mean,
other than that, it's been pretty good.
And we've actually been getting some rain too.
And they're saying we're supposed to get more rain
in the end of the summer.
It sounds like my life story, little streak of hotness.
It's over now.
And then all rain.
The rest is what?
A chip sailed.
But you know, I gotta say though, is even as mildish,
I mean, for us, it's like we had 10 days over 100.
Yeah, right.
We only had a thousand degrees.
Yeah, but really, 10 days over 100.
I have to admit, I really like my car a lot.
I'm not entirely sure that if we had one of those brutal
summers that my car's AC could keep up with that.
Oh yeah, I guess.
It's like right on the edge, right on the edge.
How does the see work without the
engine? It just like works off the battery. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. But it's not like I like my truck. I can get like gale force wings come out of that thing. You know, my truck even had the coolest feature ever, which is
you know, you get a card has seat heaters. You hit a button and it heats the seat up. My head
coolers. It would cool the seat down. Yeah, you did like a blue button
and you could like cool the seats down.
That's nice.
Yeah, it's really cool.
Kinda feels like you're wet your pants.
But it's a really good feature,
especially for a dude like when you were in a dress shirt
or something, you know Jack,
you're like driving around.
It's just on the butt part,
also on the back.
On the back, how cool it actually get.
Yeah, nothing's worse than getting out of a car
and having your back wet.
It's like, oh God damn it.
Yeah, how cool can I get? It's in the, you wanna try it out? It's in the parking wet. It's like God damn it. Yeah, how cold can I get like?
It's in that you want to try it out? It's in the parking lot. We'll go try it out after this trip
It's really exciting can we can brand a controller from
You probably can't freeze you out. How many Tesla's do you see in LA while we were there? There's a ton
There's a lot more this time
Tesla did a really cool thing. They just announced which unfortunately Texas completely lost out on but I get why
Tesla just announced their plant thing, they just announce which unfortunately Texas completely lost out on, but I get why.
Tesla just announced their plant that they're going to build color gigafactory, I believe.
Yeah, gigafactory.
They're building it in Nevada.
And it's a solar driven battery plant that a full capacity will make enough batteries
to make 500,000 Teslas a year.
That's awesome.
So they're making a commitment that they're going to be producing these cars.
And it's a net zero energy facility.
Like it doesn't, it provides all of its own energy.
The factory does.
That's pretty fun.
That is cool.
This factory produces batteries.
Yeah.
That's pretty neat.
I'm sure the raw materials to make the things
is probably not but to run the factory,
it's net zero energy.
Yeah.
Yeah, Texas lost out.
I mean, I understand why Texas lost out
because Nevada is so much closer to their factories
because their factories in California, right?
Also, they're actually me.
Yes, it's definitely so they wanna get their batteries
to the factory, they wanna be closer.
And also, I think Nevada's giving them
just a ton of tax rebates and incentives and things.
And you can't buy a Tesla in Texas, right?
No, yeah, well, you could own it here,
but you can't buy one though, right?
You can't literally can't buy it while it's in Texas. They're like, well, why are a big you get only you can order it. It's live one though. You can't go to it
I can't buy it while it's yeah, so they're like well why are we gonna give you business? I had to pay for my car
Between the time it left California and entered the state of Texas. Wow, it was like a window
Then which I had to buy it. So it was like on a truck heading here and you'd like for it while it was on the truck
Yeah, it's a window of time in which it had to be like paid for and if it got to the border
They would have to send it back like there was a big deal like they said we can't. So was there guys like like the guy at the bus? Yeah.
Pay for it. So the guy on I-10 who's sitting there and like just like,
you know, let me see the paperwork for this car. I don't know. No. Not like that.
If I get a weird thing for a while where I was I didn't register the license plate for a while
because then I was going to have to pay taxes on it. So it's like not, you don't realize how much taxes are in a car
until you had to pay it like in one check.
You know, and it's like I had to go register the car
with the state of Texas and because I couldn't do it
through a dealer here, I would just have to be
pay the taxes with a check myself.
It's like, wow, that's a chunk of change.
To pay taxes on a car.
And so I just didn't do it for like two months.
And I thought, maybe I'll just tell people,
hey, look, I'm not allowed to have this car.
So I'm not paying your taxes.
I couldn't buy taxes. So car so I'm not paying your taxes
Taxes sure why should I pay your taxes on a day? Yeah, but then you can get a license plate so
Yeah, that problem you decided for the new iPhone coming out tomorrow
Or announcing tomorrow excuse me. Oh, yeah, we just allegedly the new iPhones announcing tomorrow
But everything is pointy and the eye watch. I am only because I finally skipped a generation. Oh, yeah
I didn't get the 5s Okay Only because I finally skipped a generation. Oh yeah.
I didn't get the 5S.
Okay.
Which is kind of a generation.
Yeah, I was gonna say that's not.
That's not.
That's not a four.
It's like the side.
It looks tiny.
It looks like a brick.
Yeah, the new ones are pretty.
Which sounds weird.
Apparently the new ones are gonna be,
like they have two models.
Supposedly the base one is supposed to be
a little bit bigger than the one we currently have.
And they're gonna make one that's like,
like basically somewhere between the iPhone now
and the iPad mini.
Like it's a good size.
And it has like an extra row of buttons on it.
And then they're gonna announce an iWatch,
which apparently is gonna have the touch pay stuff.
Like the, like calling RFID,
near field, community field.
Yeah, yeah.
So basically you can have your iWatch on,
go to a store and then just basically touch your watch to it.
It's linked to your credit card or bank account
and boom, you pay for something.
Thank fucking God.
That's pretty cool.
That's all I gotta say, because I obviously
was an age, it's 2014, right?
Yes.
Whenever people were predicting the future
of what we were gonna be after the year 2000,
it was like, I don't have a flying car,
but I need a fucking credit card to buy a Coke
out of aending machine.
It's like nobody predicted that bullshit.
That a Coke would cost three bucks at a pending machine.
And I would need a goddamn bank account to buy a Coke.
You know, it's just ridiculous.
And so the fact that we don't have near field,
and the fact that we don't have chips.
Chip and pen.
Yeah, chip and pen.
There's the chip and pen is supposed to become
the standard by the end of next year.
I hope not, like that That's what he has.
Lindsay has a pin, a chip and pin in her card.
I have a chip, but not a pin in one of my cards.
One of my cards.
Yeah.
It's shocking.
Were you interested in coin?
I got one coming.
Me too.
And the thing is now, but the chip and pin thing is going to be in the next year.
So by the time the retail release of coin comes out, it's supposed to be next February
or something, it's going to be head to Z hill.
Use it for a year and then be done with it.
So yeah, it's a it's not so or did you get your notification for coin?
Yes, I'm in the beta.
So me too.
Yeah, yeah.
Gus.
Yeah.
So I guess I thought I thought Gus ordered before me, but I guess not.
So because they they pushed out like 30,000 people.
He was a big sour push about it.
So I don't think you felt the email in time.
I want robot cars.
They're coming. Yeah, the good car man. I want to come out cars real bad
Actually, as excited as I am about the electric cars and all that it's gonna be kind of moved because the real change is gonna be
For the driverless cars think about it. It's like you have you no drunk driving
No, like you don't you don't have to get a ride. Oh, cuz you take me to the airport. Did you just get robot car?
Go, you know, it's like think about going downtown. Like say I'm going to go to
I'm going to move you downtown and to step out of your car be like, okay, go park yourself.
Oh, and your car rolls away or you don't even you don't even your car can go deliver other people around.
And you don't own a car. Yeah, you don't own a car. You just you just you just
Pro you're like, I want to be here and in the little robot car I'm assuming there's not even a little robot that drives it, but
I mean to be awesome like no more drunk driving no more like that's just not
There will still be Joe dry. Yeah, yeah, but the road not from the robots
They drop you off man those robots. They had a lot of stress to deal with all the robot your robot Yeah, yeah, but the road not from the robots You know
No, but there's something I read a stat talking about it. It said something like
98% of all accidents are human error basically so it's kind of like imagine taking humans out of as opposed to like mechanical. Yeah, well as opposed to like you know nature
or something happens where it is you know
but it's not a human in control of it
but it's somehow a human is responsible for a crash
or wreck.
So once you take the human element out of it
it's like you could reduce, I mean drunk driving
obviously would go you know fall through the floor
but then you would just like normal driving
it's not a highway.
And like, well I wonder if car companies like,
damn we're gonna have to we'll sell less cars
Well, because people aren't wreck cars if they're not driving them. I guess so you know, I mean you know, I'm saying
What about insurance? Well insurance go down. I don't know that we and what's interesting?
Well is if there's an accident who's responsible the robot the robot the company that made the robot car
Or is it your robot car or is it their robot car?
Well, I mean, that's yeah, that's responsible. Yeah, that's good.
But the monkey who took the picture?
No, what about the monkey?
Yeah, yeah.
So they ruled that the monkey took a selfie of itself.
Yeah.
Like it took a photographer's camera and it took its own picture.
And that picture went viral and went everywhere.
And the photographer sued like a publication that had up it to take it down and
the publisher said it's not your picture it's the monkey's picture yeah it's
the monkey owns the copyright the voters like go fuck yourself the monkey owns
the copyright the court ruled the monkey own to a picture yeah the monkey owns
the copyright and the the photographer the guy who on the the camera doesn't have
any rights to it that's right I'm all for the story I've heard.
Yeah, I'm a higher year.
But I actually agree with it.
But it's like the month.
Yeah.
If I loaned you my camera and you took a photo,
it would be your photo.
Okay, no, hypothetical.
I have a GoPro with a little collar on it.
I hit record and then put it on a cat and send the cat out.
It comes back and I take it off and hit stop.
Is it mine or the cat?
Well, that's yours.
That'd be like,
I mean, I started recording the hook.
He literally hit the button to take the photo.
So I imagine that would be that adds ownership to it.
It's like, is it who touches the button?
Well, it's like, I think it's who's license.
So a film production hires someone,
the hires a monkey to take a photo.
Okay, the film production company hires a monkey.
The monkey's trying to come for it. Yeah, was that the nature? Yeah monkey to take a photo. Okay, the film production company hires a monkey trying to come for it. Yeah, was that nature? Yeah, that's the that's the photo.
That's a good looking monkey. No, that's a human. Yeah, the monkey. I think that I think
that if the guy had had sick burn, like if he just took the photo and put it out, like
that this is the the photo that the monkey took. If he did that, then you could say it's
the monkey's photo. However, if before he ever released it, if he'd have filtered it or color corrected it, then he could
say, that's my work that I did. And there's no original, you know, that this is the only
thing that's published is this work that I created with the monkey.
But he uploaded the photo. Yeah, he'd put it, I guess he put up the original and the original
photo is property of the monkey. So once the, once monkeys figure out Instagram. We're all fucked is what you're trying to say
Yeah, that he can't claim copyright to the photo cuz the monkey owns it man owns that copyright we should wrap it
It's really awesome. They'll go on back to the driverless cars thing
This is from the Wikipedia page
On driverless cars, especially the Google driverless car. It's only been in two accidents.
One accident, it was rear ended while it was stopped
at a traffic light, so it was hit from behind.
And the other was, it was being driven by a human.
Someone had taken the wheel and then crashed.
Did they have to put in wheels recently?
Yeah, well, so the beta test cars,
the alpha test cars, the ones ones they have they've been like 20
They don't have any sort of steering wheels or pedals or anything
The state of California said they have to put that stuff in the car
Yeah, they said lily you have to have it in because it basically like there is pretty much like an iPad type thing with like a
Direction thing and then a big red button
So if something go wrong you hit the red button and it stops the car
But they want to have it where you can hit the button and then control it if you, if it necessary.
I can't believe right at time because I mean, it's like, this is one of his good discussion.
I watched a whole, uh, Netflix, they had a whole 10 section for TED talks on robotics.
I watched like two of the 15 minute talks and I was like, robots are clearly going to
fucking kill us very soon.
I mean, it's just like, it's almost without question.
It's like you watch, and like even what they consider to be a robot mean, it's just like, it's almost without question. It's like you watch
and like even what they consider to be a robot is like, I expect like Chris with his driving
pantomime or like a dude like Asimov walking around. No, robots are like cubes that like
flop around the floor and build themselves into these things that like turn into snakes
that will just choke you to death or something. You know what I mean?
It's like T1000 basically. It's pretty frightening stuff.
It's either that or we'll have a post-apocalyptic podcast next time.
But some boldest thing.
It's going to be a bull or it's going to be robots.
Did you read about the quarantine?
Yes.
Yes.
Sierra Leone.
Wait, what?
Yeah.
Three days they're going to quarantine the country where no one is allowed to go outside
and they're going gonna go door to door
health workers trying to find hidden Ebola patients. That's like a novel. Yeah, that's a
more Z-based. Yeah, yeah. It's getting pretty good. At what point do they start like making
people walk through dogs to get to the other side? Yeah, yeah. Which is coming. No, but that's,
I mean, that's, I'm glad they're taking those measures. I mean, all joking if you want to talk to them.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I don't want that to just spread.
Yeah, that's a pretty serious situation
if they're quarantined in a whole country.
Oh, shit.
So on that note, thanks for watching,
everybody.
