Hey everyone, welcome to what might be the shortest podcast ever?
I gotta pay my rent.
I totally forgot that I have to pay my rent.
We arrived before we came live, Aaron started freaking out and worrying that he hadn't paid
his rent, so we're-
I mean, I'm weighing whether I should stay or I should go and pay my rent.
Maybe we should just pause and just have like-
Can you give- it'll take like an hour and a half.
And I would have to say, or the podcast is still there.
I'm like, check, look.
And they have checks.
The worst thing about buying a house,
like endo longer renting, is that you have like this
fucking 30 years of crippling debt over your head.
But the best thing is, at least you don't have to pay
till the 15th of the month.
But it's not the same thing.
You still have to pay it every month.
Yeah, absolutely.
But it's arbitrary. But it's even gr thing? You still have to pay it every month. Yeah, absolutely. But it's arbitrary.
But it's even grier because you can let it default.
Like you just let it default and then eventually you pay.
You know, like you just...
It's like how many months is it to the bank notices?
Yeah, you don't really own a house though.
Well, after 30 years you do.
Yeah, after 30 years.
But you're just staying in the house,
the bank's house basically.
But the bank isn't like coming over and fixing shit.
Like, what are you talking about? I mean, yeah, it's my... Hey, bank's sh basically but the bank isn't like coming over and fixing shit
a bank
he's broken
uh... they don't they don't care unless you don't pay
what is it that's illegal loophole
that if the bank needs to crash the place for a night
what what happens
what happens to your job
like for how like what do they do
Chris has a mortgage now so so he's legitimately asking.
He's like, wait, wait, after a while, they will,
they don't notice immediately,
but they will eventually notice.
And then they try to make you pay it.
And then if you don't pay it, then they just take it.
Yeah.
Gus, what's a second mortgage?
I have all these questions.
I guess they're in play now.
To the further intricacies of home mortgages,
it's a podcast, I'm Gus.
I am, Brady.
I'm Aaron.
I'm Chris.
And I'm Gus.
So what do you mean a second mortgage?
Yeah, people take out second mortgages
when they need money.
Like a line of credit or something.
Like, I don't know, in movies when they need money,
that's true.
No, like Ghostbusters, he takes out a third mortgage on his own.
So let's say you bought a house, and you bought the house 10 years ago and you paid $100,000.
Okay.
Today, let's say the house is worth $150,000.
What was it worth $100,000?
Okay.
So like now it's worth $50,000 more.
You mortgage against that.
And since it's worth more, you get the difference in money to you.
So it's kind of like you're selling the house right now.
Right.
You're selling and you're just like starting over from scratch.
Why don't you do that like every year?
Like I would do that.
Like I would do it and then the next day I would do it again.
Because I need 20 bucks for gas.
You do have to pay a lot of fees every time you do this.
There's like a lender right now that I'm listening
and like lowering his credit score as they're just like,
woo, done.
It's like the ultimate sign of irresponsibility.
Credit scores are bullshit.
You're talking about it's just invisible money
that they just give you?
Yeah, more, more, more of that.
The credit scores are bullshit.
I had a credit hit and I was like freaking out
and I pay every month to get, you know,
keep up data stuff and they told me the name of the company.
So I call the credit agency and they're like,
you can't talk to these people.
The only way you can reach them
is if you mail them a letter
I haven't mailed somebody a letter since I was like
For so I go through all the work and I mail it and I haven't heard anything back
But like there's nothing I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Like what will like Gus?
What am I supposed to do wait no, no, you take a second mortgage out on
I need some
Mail the letter
I didn't buy those forever stamps so like it's a male joke speaking of
No, Barbara bill left speaking of like credits course being bullshit the other day
I got well actually backtrack a little bit you know whom people have that credit card breach and as a result if you
Shop we have that new credit cards. Yeah, you get new credit cards and you get enrolled in like
automatic credit monitoring. And I've forgotten about it, like
I signed up for it and whatever. And then I got like the
ultimate fishing phone call the other day. It's like an
automated voice call going, this is, you know, your credit
protection services. We need to set up your personal passcode
and your pin. Please enter your personal pin and say your
password like, what the fuck you
I'm doing I've quiz them before and like they're so elusive and their answers and eventually just hang up
Yeah, I feel like I've got one of this didn't you get one of those calls recently too with like a I know Chris and I both had our credit cards
Yeah, so recently we weren't going to the same places
You went to a business we won't say where you You went to a business, we won't say where.
You both went to a business and then both your credit cards information was.
Now it was a second where we did the speed dating social disorder.
That's where we thought it was.
Oh yeah.
But the way you just explained it now, you said it like you were like to a business.
We were people, we were people, we were people.
Maybe it was you guys or maybe it was we don't know for sure.
We're not saying anything
Okay, yeah, that's that's what we want to say
Yeah, so this is your first time on the podcast Aaron it is
For people who don't know what is it you do around here? I don't know I really do I do like I guess editing and
Chris and I have social disorder which is a nice it may sound like we had a baby like
well we have a we have a baby together called social disorder and it's a it's a family program
that's very nice and I don't know live action live action uh Jeff was telling me the other day
that he had his favorite inner interaction with you ever Chris yeah Jeff told me he walked up to
Chris the other day and here in the student said, Chris, what did you do here? And Chris could not give him an answer.
Chris said, I don't know live action in his shorts. And Jesse, we haven't put a
short out in forever. What do you do? What is a day in your work? And Chris could
not honestly not answer. Well, I think I edit a lot. It's a lot harder when you think about it in terms of a day.
I'm always really busy.
It's always busy.
Always busy doing things.
I mean, I painted my car the other day in the parking lot.
I thought you would paint it like one day after a podcast.
You were out there in the dark with light panels.
That's part of what I do here.
I paint your painting the car black.
Yeah, that was to get it if you were painting it.
Let me tell you something.
If you're ever painting your car black in a parking lot at night, just don't do it.
Just stop what you're doing, return all of the paint, and just stop because I missed
a lot of fucking spots on that car.
No kidding.
Also, most people don't paint their own car.
Just for the...
What's wrong with being different?
I mean, it's like, would you get like special auto paint or is it just like you went
to home before? No, it's rest-dol like special auto paint or is it just like you went to home
It's rust-doline paint
It's what you paint a bench with and I think is he started painting it a month ago
But it's only half painted
No, and he's he's got it wrapped up with tape. It looks like a mummy that escaped
Yeah, it did look like it burned to the ground for a little bit because it was like gray and primord and like
Like little patches of metal and stuff like that And And it's the best part is you also have
like your license plate totally taped over. I want to know there's no way that's
there's no back like it's taped over in the back and then I don't have a front
license license plate. But I have no idea. It is a cop car. Yeah it's a cop car
like that car looks like it's driven by a guy who's kicked off the force. Yeah
that's what I think is tonight. Like it, it's people think it's like a cop car
for a different reason now.
They think it's a bad cop, like a cop with a bend.
You know, he's like, oh, he's driving around without plates
and tape all over the car and there's paint dripping off of it.
Like, he's crazy.
He's fucking crazy.
He's played by the rules.
He doesn't play by the rules.
He doesn't know how to paint.
Like, that's what my car is now.
But, okay, so we went to the gym today. air and 80 piece of gum off the floor of the gym. Why do you say that?
I don't know really gross. It was an wrapper though that he we're
He's
No, no, no, it was an unchued piece of gum
But he picked it up off the ground and it was like perfectly wrapped now, but it was mushed and
But he picked it up off the ground and it was like perfectly wrapped now, but it was mushed and he goes is this yours? And I said no and he goes, oh, okay, and he ate it
What kind of gum was it? I don't poison gum. It was fine. It was it was orbs
Okay, so it was like a thin paper wrapper thin paper, but it was sealed paper
You know like and it didn't have like a seal. No, they don't see it was like folded
It wasn't like a bad fold on it was like a clean fold and it didn't look like pocket gum like it didn't have that you know that soft
Now it was broken no it was like what is going on there intentionally what if that's the start of like the Ebola bandit
I mean I have been loosening this entire time I've been sitting here. I just didn't want to say anything
I guess as you see the
Austin American station reported that some EMS agency in Austin said
that we're not ready for Ebola.
Like they made a public declaration in a state where we've had a Ebola outbreak and said,
yeah, we were in outbreak.
We had an incident.
That's an outbreak.
An outbreak that a white...
An outbreak sounds like it was widespread and out of control.
Okay, we had three people with Ebola with Ebola and then the Austin like there's news in Austin like yeah, we're we're not ready for it
And it's like you've had
You've had four months
How do you prepare for it though?
Yeah, I don't know why I'm sure I'm sure the suits are back order on Amazon. They're waiting for them to show up
It's kids burning order 30
You've seen those suits are they're only 160 bucks.
Are they?
And they look scary as hell.
They're really scary looking.
They're really scary looking.
It was very scary.
Yeah, you just sit at your desk and no one will touch it
all day long.
John Stewart did a series of shows from Austin.
And in the first show, he came out and like a whole Ebola
suit because it was in Dallas.
Because it was only 130 bucks.
No, but I mean, but because it was in Dallas.
He's making fun of like all the Ebola hype and scared. I thought because it was only 130 bucks. No, but I mean, but the because it was in Dallas,
he's the son of like all the Ebola Hyde. Oh, scared. I thought because it was in Texas,
he was like, oh, well, that's kind of close to Austin. He was just making jokes. Yeah.
That's what he does. That's a stick. Yeah. I haven't seen him. I don't know.
I heard I read today that he said, you know, his, I guess his contract out the daily shows
up in a year. Yeah. And he said he was was he was being courted by NBC news to go potentially anchor meet the press
That's insane really yeah, can you imagine making that jump from like a comedy show to that's like if I quit doing this podcast
And it went started working for like NPR like I don't know that wouldn't work
I hear that the host of car talk died today.
Um, too soon. Jesus.
I'm going to get a little
air. Keith Obernman went from
hosting ESPN Sports Center to
his own show. I think was on
MSNBC. Yeah, that's right.
Yeah. Yeah. So I guess you can,
you know, and I think John
Stewart probably has more
cloud than Keith Obernman did.
John Stewart talked for a while
about like he doesn't have many years left at the helmet,
the daily show, like he doesn't want to,
I don't think, like he believes like in the letter,
well, Letterman didn't really do that well,
but you know, like you just kind of bow out at your high point
and your 12 years.
Yeah, I don't know.
Well, I mean, some of those guys is 20, 25.
He came in about like 98 or 99. It wasn't too far before the election the 2000 election. Yeah, that was like that was when he exploded
Yeah, when 15 16 years that was in decision 2000 right that's when that all happened Craig Colborne was like fuck comedy
Central I'm gonna hit it big on network TV
Who's yeah, I feel like it's always got Craig killborn and the guy that did
talk suit house park. I was get them confused for some reason. Really? Because they have the same
cockiness. I guess they don't look at all the same. Yeah. They have that same kind of like
mm-hmm-hmm-whatever. Yeah. I was associate those guys to the same thing in my head. It must be really fascinating for everyone who's a fan of, oh, I was too 20 years old.
In my head, I was thinking, who are they?
Very, very specific.
So we have to have like a airplane story
in every podcast, right?
Go on.
Did you see that there was a couple on a Southwest flight
that got married in the flight?
Like it wasn't in Promptu, it it was planned and they had like a band there and
Like the whole people why they got married. Oh my god. There's pictures. That's getting married on a green
way and
I think they're on the way to Puerto Rico and you just wonder like if you're one of the people getting married
You're like I don't have an escape plan like what
I gotta get out of here the people getting married, you're like, I don't have an escape plan. Like, what would you do? What would you do?
I got to get out of here.
You're gonna bring like a fake mustache and go to the bathroom and put it on.
You're like, you're like, it's a groom wearing a pair of shoes.
That would be that's pretty weird.
That would be the best plan.
You know what I like to say?
If anyone has anything, any reason why they shouldn't be married, you should just like,
get all the passengers who know, no one knows them.
You know, because there's gonna be random passengers, right?
They're gonna have a whole class. Yeah, they all just raise their hand and they can't kick them off. all the passengers who know no one knows them, you know, cause there's gonna be random passengers, right?
They ran a whole plane.
Yeah, they all just raise their hand and they kick them off.
It's like, do you know any reason why they shouldn't
be married?
Yes.
Because they're getting married on a fucking plane.
Does anybody else think this is the best way?
It's like the Southwest flight?
Like that's awful.
Yeah, I mean, you know, at least you're knighted.
But they use that line.
I don't know if it was a priest who married them or what but whoever was conducting ceremony
Use that line and it said if anybody has a reason these two shouldn't be married
Plus press the flight attendant button and talk to a flight attendant
It's like oh come on. You know her dress had a smell so bad like after the flight because you know how you can't get that flight
Smell out and say like really wash it like it still smells like Southwest
So the question is did she go through security in the wedding dress like
can you see her like going through the
and is she like putting her arms up
or did she change in the bathroom?
Yes I am do you have something under your dress?
Yeah I'm fucking I'm wearing a fucking wedding dress
yeah and why a way to consummate the marriage in your honeymoon you got a you
know airport back through my there just hop in
mile high club it yeah
so you can immediately walk back down the island,
go and go phone in the bathroom.
Where are they going?
This is the ceremony.
Like the bedding ceremony.
Is that what it's called in here with the roads?
So Jordan was speaking to planes.
Jordan was making fun of me earlier.
We went to lunch and we were waiting for our food
over at a burger place down the road.
And I was staring out the window and I saw a plane
and I wasn't even thinking I was looking at that. That's a weird-looking plane. I said,
what plane is that? And I just walked out of the restaurant and Jordan said he was looking
around like, what the fuck does that have? You just got up and you didn't say anything?
No, I was like, no, I out loud. I said, what plane is that? I just walked out to go look at it.
What kind of a kid were you? No, he your thing. You look for the British airways.
Well, yeah, this is way too early for them.
They were late to British airways was like 40 minutes late today.
For the record. Do you actually go out and look for a new guy?
No, no, no, no, I just happen to be walking and I see it all the fucking time.
And they would late today. I didn't send a picture to Gavin.
Got.
Our text conversation is just a long list of me texting him pictures of that plane.
I'm sure he's not grown tired of that.
No, I was even texting when he was in the UK.
Like, if he's in the UK, I was like, oh, I got a text as UK number.
I'll send him over.
Lenny will spend.
Not for me for him, right?
I don't know.
I just for me to no sign message, though.
That's all data.
I don't even think about it.
Oh, man.
Now that text message is, and all this shit goes over data,
it's so much cheaper to text or communicate with people
internationally than it used to be.
Like I've got Skype, you've got FaceTime audio,
FaceTime video for talking to people.
Like I'm so glad that telephone companies don't have
that fucking stranglehold on you anymore.
Yeah.
Or you are just for hearing the sound of someone's voice,
you're paying like 30 bucks.
I don't know if it's like this everywhere in Europe,
but I had a friend in Italy who was saying,
text messaging has always been super expensive,
even within the country.
That's why everybody uses WhatsApp.
Everybody was surprised that Facebook bought WhatsApp
for, I don't know how many.
$6 billion.
$6 billion, because no one here uses it,
but everyone else does.
Yeah, and everyone else does.
I think China, right?
China, maybe not China, but some, maybe Japan maybe Japan says the guy who doesn't use text messages.
I have WhatsApp now. I have it now and that's everything's fine. Let's not bring up text messaging.
Yeah, I don't have just text messages. You can't still text Aaron doesn't get invited
to a lot of stuff. So you don't use text messages when you use WhatsApp. I had you,
because he made me get WhatsApp. Yeah. He made me get WhatsApp and like, now he terrorizes
me with it now. He sends me things in the morning or whatever. I didn't want it, but
I had to get it because for shooting and stuff like that.
There's social disorder because a lot of times we'll have different cameras hit like
all different places and then we'll either you know, either have walkies or communicate via text
and if Aaron doesn't get texts and it's like,
there's just, he's like just email me.
And I'll be on my email.
That's not what I said.
I was like, I'll be fine without talking.
No, it's just because like,
you make my life difficult sometimes
because you don't have text messaging.
And I like that.
Finding a way to actually get you on it
and then exploiting it was, yeah, essentially.
I'm the text message, the time, okay,
so the most recent one, the garage sale.
Oh, it was almost really, really bad
because I didn't get, because I didn't,
I almost didn't see a text message.
So in the premise is,
Aaron is selling garage sale items
that are for serial killer.
And I thought for like a good ending thing is I would wait till there
a bunch of people in the garage sale. And then I would run out. Basically naked,
tied with my hands tied behind my back. And I was get I was already to go. I was tied up. And then I was like
texting. I was like, I was texting the group message. I was like, hey, are there a bunch of people out there right now?
And they're like, yeah, there's like three or four.
I'm like, okay, cool, I'm about to run out, get ready.
And they're like, yeah, one of them's like, cop.
And I was like, okay, I'm gonna wait on this.
It was in the middle, if you see the episode,
the cop that comes, he's a foot taller than me.
And like, he's a huge imposing man, and he's a cop.
And I'm talking to him, like, trying to,
I'm trying to like sell him something and like,
distract him from all like the blood and the hair
and all that other stuff.
And meanwhile, like Chris, I guess,
I had no idea that he was in the house ready.
He was gonna come running out, screaming, like half naked.
And then, I mean, I would have been,
at the very least, taste. I mean, a light taste. A light taste. I wish I would have been at the very least taste I mean a light which I would have been because the cup was already like this
doesn't look right this doesn't what about this he would have gone after Chris
while like grabbing in the neck and dragging you around no no here's what would
happen he would have seen the the man boy come out you know covered in blood and
then he would have gone your mind and
then that would have been it that would have been the end of the shoot
in a shooting yeah it would have possibly I mean I think Austin cops taste first
oh man yeah so who drew bat cat oh I got that a good will no one drew that I was
like this is creepy it's just a cat with its shadow right but when I was looking at it at the time I thought it had wings. I was like, oh yeah, bat cat
This is bat cat. You can buy this if you'd like. Yeah, I was really confused by that too
Like what the fuck do you talk about when I saw in the edit? I was like what the fuck was I thinking when I did that
You're just doing it to be like extra weird and creepy. I mean, I didn't need any extra weird creepy
I mean I would have said oh yeah
It's a it that's my cat that I draw all the time
or something like that, but yeah, here we go.
This is the man.
He's rather large.
Look at how big he's huge.
And it's not like, Aaron's already over six feet, right?
Yeah, look how I barely come up to a shoulder.
And, so at that moment, that's when Chris was hiding
in the kitchen.
Oh yeah, I was just about to burst out screaming naked. So, let's Chris. So at this at that moment, that's when Chris was like a hiding oh, yeah, I was just about to burst out screaming naked. So yeah
So that's fun. That would have been awesome. Yeah, but I'm glad you didn't get hurt
Are you would have liked to see a little tasing? I would I would then we'd have to be weird for editing, you know, who would win?
Yeah, I think Chris we would have kept shooting it too. Yeah, we would not have gotten out of those cars Really? This is bad, but at least we'll have a film. I love people who like pointing you out in the background Brandon
Like during the survey like oh look at Brandon
He looks so shady. He just sits in the backpack and he's like he's
I said the backpack thing was a bad idea
But it did work a lot of times
What really worked was when I was just sitting on the ground
and putting my back up to the wall.
That's an area called the drag,
and it's right next to campus,
and it's famous for drag rats, people who,
I don't know if they're not homeless,
they just hang out there and they're back for money.
It's like kids who live on the streets.
Yeah, so I just put on a hat and then to help
with my cover story, I put out a cup and I put some dollars
in it, and... Did you make it? Did, I put out a cup and I put some dollars in it.
Did you make it? Did anyone put money in your cup?
No. I would put money in your cup, seeing you, because you look like just clean and not
like imposing enough to be like, oh, he's probably just kind of hard on his luck. I would
put some change in there.
Yeah, but if you go look at the body bag one, Chris's roommate is in like every shot.
That was weird, because they were just following you around with iPhones
Cameras. Yeah, nobody. Yeah, you were a good bit. Yeah. Oh, you're doing here funny story about the body back thing. Oh, yeah, no
Okay, the you know you know on the body back when I ask out two girls
Against rejected. Yeah, so I was we were meeting up for
To go get drinks one
Saturday night before it was going to premiere, too.
Okay.
Night before it came out.
We're, uh, I'm the first one to arrive at the meeting place.
I'm looking like a bark.
Yeah.
Okay.
You mean it was the same place that we were dancing at.
That secret place.
Uh, and, and I saw this girl and I was like, man, that girl looks really, really familiar. And so I, I like, I kind of, it was, when ordered my drink and I was like man that girl looks really really familiar
And so I like I kind of it was when ordered my drink and I was pretty close to her
And I was kind of like looking at her just maybe it was maybe creepily
I don't know
It was a look you just had on your face. Yeah, it was pretty good
But I was trying to figure out where I knew her face is and it's like she starts like
Capy go lucky. Yeah, so but she starts talking to me and I'm talking to her
I still the whole time I'm not trying to figure out where I know her from and then I found out she's a yoga instructor and so and
there was an there's an episode that we ended up not deciding to do just yet that involved yoga so I was
asking her quite a lot of questions about yoga and then Aaron walks up, I walk up and I see Chris at the bar. It was two girls that he was with.
And I see him talking in this girl and I'm like,
man, she looks really familiar and then immediately I was like,
she was in the episode.
She was in the episode.
And then there was the two girls I tried to ask out.
Oh yeah.
And I go, Chris, do those girls look familiar to you?
And he's like, yeah, I think I recognize them.
I was in the bag
and i recognize them
and so we sit down and it's like i'll give you two guesses who they are but you
won't believe me
and so i told him he's like
oh man and so he walks up to her i go wait wait
and i stop him and i'm like
think about what you're gonna say
last time i
i saw you two ladies i was dragging a body. That's what you're that's your opener essentially
I mean well, I mean they were lucky. They remembered yeah, they definitely remembered him and they didn't scream or anything
But and that's essentially how you open up that conversation was like oh, yeah, I was I was dragging a body last time
You saw me the vegetarian yeah, yeah, yeah, I was like I can't drag it because I'm underneath me allergic meat or whatever she said
But yeah, that was the night before that it it because I don't eat meat allergic meat or whatever she said
But that was the night before that it aired. We knew it was a good omen
Yeah, that's a really weird
It was in the small town. It really is. Yeah me forget about it But you're one of the same people over and over and over especially at you are barbarellas
I'm talking about brothers. No, no, we're oh no, we weren't there, but yeah
You do run into a lot of people at that bar
Yeah, so we we ended up at Barbara Ellis on Saturday night
And it was me this past Saturday this past Saturday night. Yeah, definitely. It was me Paula Chris and
Blaine and they were both kind of tired from I guess like the previous night
So we're kind of chilling when at a Barbara. Relo's really drinking a little bit, but it's like a dance floor
so I'm there with Paula and I'm trying to do like my customary wiggle when I'm on the dance floor like I don't know
I'm like real dance moves, but I can do this and
Chris and Blaine are both pretty like low-key just drinking and then I look over and I see these two girls dancing with one another
And they're both have their bodies kind of open to Blaine and Chris and like why don't you guys go talk to them
They're just sitting there. Remember this
And they're like, I don't know. I don't know. So then I say something to Paula and then why look back?
Chris is gone and then I look over the girls and Chris is like in between them
What is like really helpless like happy go look at phase?
I know
like happy go look at phase I know that Chris dance and I'm bad I was like oh yeah I know I know yeah I know that's what he goes up in the air and it's like whenever Chris is there
he has this face that's so harmless that girls love and then Blaine is just kind of standing
there doesn't really know what to do and then eventually the other girl goes up and starts dancing
on Blaine and so he's just like sitting there with his drink having to like get in the mindset of being drunk.
But um, then we got for you.
I don't remember.
Like Chris is so like non threatening.
Like I think I've said this a few times, but he's so so non threatening sexually that women are like, yeah, of course, because he's like a brother to them.
You know, I don't think that that's what they see them as a brother and,
and you don't fuck your brother. Usually you don't, but like they see him as a brother and they're
like, yeah, I can hang out with them and there's no possibility that I'll sleep with them.
Like, unless I get really drunk, right? Well, I don't think of it that way. I guess that's
just how I think of it. It's just a matter of perception. Tomato, tomato. Yeah. Yeah, I know
people, people look to you.
I have nothing to fear from him.
That's what I'm saying.
Little do they know.
That's good for you.
Here, let me read this thing.

I have a little more. I have a little more.
There's still with us. Thanks Audible.
I'm sorry. I remember what the first book was. It might have been Game of Thrones or
Those when I recommended it. Oh, it was the godfather. Yeah, you did we did do a godfather recommendation at one point. I don't remember what the first one was
Fuck it's been so long. Yeah, we're in the car. This is the first time I used it. It was just like driving around
It's the only time I use it. It's like the best time to do it
I've tried I mean, it's just like you got it
You're gonna be in your car anyway. I broke this car and you may as well do something do you have like this connection to audible since they were the first ones to
Throwing you know
This is shot they believed in us and they stuck around for some reason. I don't know why even despite all the the terrible stories
We tell around their their ad
So I was I was watching so my wife's getting kind of into like comic book movies.
Specifically she really likes the X-Mans and I really don't know much about comics. I'd never
really read comics as a kid so I really can't provide much information. So we've been watching
the movies and like I kind of blew her mind the other day to think that different superheroes
live in the same world like the Marvel universe is all together and the DC universe all together but they're you know there's no overlap
there like Superman could fly and visit Batman in like an hour right or they
run to each other the grocery store exactly they're at Barbara Ella but
Chris comes up to them and starts dancing on them her favorite character from
attack me because apparently I like non-sexually you're a lot of brother
wonder woman would have told faith in you
yeah but her
back to your invisible plane
just hanging out
married in the world
do anything
but her favorite character in days of
X-Men days of future pass was quick silver
she liked the idea like she loved the way
that actor played the character and everything
and uh...
the other day she almost asked me the most
nerdy question in the world.
She caught herself.
She said, so Quick Silver runs really fast.
I said, yeah, I guess that's the thing.
She said, what about the flash?
What does he do?
I said, I really don't know.
I guess he also just runs really fast.
She was like, so who's faster?
Quick Silver?
Never mind, I don't want enough.
I'm sorry, I started that question.
That's just way too much for me. I just imagine she just dropped
whatever she was doing and ran to the bathroom looked in the mirror. She's like, who are you?
And then the next day she was like, so I was doing some reading and apparently the flash can run
around the world in five seconds. But wait a minute, I'm doing it again. She's done. She's done.
That's what's gone of the edge. I was talking about the other day when we're talking about whether
Mythril or Adamantium is harder and whether a lightsaber could cut through you know, which it could not I
Okay, so Adamantium stronger. That's that was the determination a lightsaber could melt it eventually It wouldn't be like a clean cut it would be like imagine the blast doors in episode one
Yeah, where they stick the lightsabers in and wait for it to melt once adamantium has like dried you cannot heat it up again you can it's melting point no that's not
true that is not true and in some of the x-men movies we have never said
anything from the podcast that turned out to be a true I said that he was
non-threatening sexually I think all of you guys but no that I see it. But no, I hear you're here with us. I'm just gonna fuck it up.
I'm just gonna take a look.
But at least one of the movies, his Wolverine gets his,
didn't he get his claws cut off?
No, when they're still bone, they get like cut off by saber.
So that's an X-Men origin to Wolverine.
This before he has the adamantium.
What you need to do is don't worry with the lightsaber.
And also you think of when Mystique was copying him.
Oh, that's what I'm thinking of.
Okay, yeah, yeah.
Okay, just use the force and rip the adamantium from his bones.
It's not a force thing.
It's just like a physics.
Yeah, right.
Physics in a superhero universe.
It's physics.
It's physics.
It's also a Star Wars universe because we have a lightsaber there.
Yeah, well, it's just like it's combining different fantasy worlds and what are they interact?
How it's a physics? Well, they're super hero physics classes that they teach at different universities. They do not.
Yeah, they don't tell Chris. They actually do. And I'm going back to school, guys.
There's so much fun you can have with that, but then you get to Superman,
and you're like, this makes no fucking sense.
Like how?
That's when he doesn't make sense.
No, he can fly, and then immediately just change direction,
and then change direction again,
it just, it defies all logic.
That's what defies logic?
Yeah.
He had enough force.
It makes sense.
Like, if you had enough, you know, pushing force or whatever.
But then there's nothing that he's slowing himself down.
Like, it's not like all of a sudden,
he gets really like, and like,
when resistance slows him down,
like it just, it makes no sense.
I think this makes sense that he's flying.
That's the first part.
But he's a bird.
He's a bird.
He flies.
Yeah, here's a deal.
I think there's some people fly.
Who flies?
Apparently Brandon.
Superman.
No, that's the unbelievable part.
So you all know storm flies, but she
Put the wind up and then she like flows
The
That's our suspension of disbelief has to be kidding
I do believe that you need to have your suspension of disbelief has to exist within a
World and you have
to obey those laws.
And if you just obey whatever laws they are, you can set up this world.
But just what you set it up.
You have to, yeah.
I'll make it a lot more.
Yeah, college just have all sorts of bullshit classes.
I took a bullshit class.
Oh, get it, get it!
Oh, his guess is beer storming.
I took a bullshit class when I was in college
that just basically involved this watching television.
And I thought it was gonna be a lot more fun.
Well fun to film school.
Yeah, wasn't that no school?
Yeah, I think it should be a lot more fun than it really was.
I didn't go to film school. I didn't do shit.
But then it's like after the first week, you're like,
oh, this is taking a little fun out of watching these TV shows.
I really don't want to do this.
It's not like we even talked about it a lot.
It's just that knowing that it was scheduled, like,
oh, fuck, I got to go watch Seinfeld today.
Or I got to go watch Alphrey Runs for the next two hours.
Like, I really don't want to do that.
Yeah, as soon as you start having to do it for work
or school, it's no longer fun.
But we had like a 1930s movies class.
There was an HBO class.
Oh yeah.
I guess we all went to the same school.
There were a couple classes where it's like, well, I'm going to have to get drunk before
I go to this class.
Are you talking about Chris and I had this class called, should I say the name of it?
I guess it doesn't matter, right?
It's called, it was a weird class.
Say it.
It was called the Uncanny, right?
And it was like dealing with things that are,
OK, so for instance, when you see a robot,
like a humanoid robot that looks really real,
and you kind of go, that's the uncanny.
I think that's what she says.
Like virtual reality that looks too close to life,
but not close enough, where it's like,
that's the uncanny valley, essentially,
or whatever.
So Chris and I took this class that we essentially,
how would you describe it?
We, we, well, there weren't projects.
It was just like, you're, we had four,
I think four assignments and it's just,
come up with something that's uncanny.
That was the, that was the class.
Come up with four projects that are uncanny.
It was like free form
Like something that you've taken the 70s essentially like anything goes
Cany
Are you are you getting to oh?
I don't know you're talking about that guy. So yeah, yeah, so
Do you ever see that video of me dancing with myself Brandon?
Rubar yeah, that was a project I did for that do this one. So, there won't be any change. Just as an example, do you ever see that video of me dancing with myself, Brandon?
Rubar.
Yeah.
That was a project I did for that class.
Like one of the best projects.
Like, you can imagine that.
Yeah.
So, but essentially, so the final project is, you know, you're supposed to spend like a
third of the semester on this final project, it's supposed to be really good.
Well, I don't know how you interpret interpret it but it's supposed to be impressive
but okay so i felt sleep christ and i had spent all of our time making this
3d movie that was crazy it was like a gore film or whatever and and we'd
spent all this time
that's not a stuff uh... doing this movie
and we've shown it whatever we're really tired
christ falls asleep and this guy comes out
with uh... first of all he missed his first class to present his project so he's
already late on it he comes out with this tub
full of pepsi
like i guess pepsi or coke or something just a huge sloshing tub
and he comes out with smarties or what right pop rocks pop rocks that's what it
was
she comes out with pop rocks
and his girlfriends assisting him and he's in front of maybe sixty or 70 of us and he gets this tub and he goes, when I drop these pop rocks in this tub,
it's going to foam over and it will go everywhere and you will see, like, well, I don't even
know how to describe it magic or physics and action or something like that.
So anyway, he throws all of these pop rocks that they had unwrapped into this tub and it does
nothing, like absolutely nothing and there's just silence, right?
And so one of the old guys that was auditing the class, he's like 60 or 70, he goes, God,
10!
You wasted our fucking time!
Chris, I remember that guy!
Yeah, I remember that guy, the old guy!
So Chris starts waking up like that.
And he sees this guy yelling next to him.
And like Chris look, and this guy's like,
you are a disgrace to the community,
and this class, whatever the class was.
And you know, we hate you and blah blah blah.
And, and he just stopped, right?
And Chris and I are just looking.
I was like, what the fuck is going on?
And I couldn't even explain it to him.
And so then they just went down the line, the teachers A,
the other teachers A, the teacher,
and they all berated him one by one,
10 to 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, he's standing up there with his girlfriend
eating poff rocks.
And he's just, he has this look on his face.
He can't say anything because he knows he's fucked up
and his girlfriend is just slowly moving away.
She broke up with him, I'm sure that night. That's another bullshit class.
Yeah, so bullshit class. That's where we were getting at. I was going to say that they knew
it was like a twist like the uncanny. The uncanny was the element of the thing. That was the thing.
I got you. I remember that guy, the crazy guy, he was in my screenwriting class and he wrote a feature
spy mystery, kind of like spy gay, there's like four in the agency he's going after
everybody who's like, yeah, it's just, you know, right about what you know.
He's got classes for like 40 years, like what did he know besides going to class? No, it was nice
I wasn't as age he was just he was just crazy
Well, it's one of the he you know he'd audited the class. He just every year. He just came and did it again
Who's the same class like that's just thing?
He's like well every every investor. There was a different like it was on cany-one one year and it was like
Siphon missed I don't't know it's like a different subject, especially the same class though
Like it's the same bullshit every time
That's funny so according to Twitter according to lightning grumpy on Twitter the first podcast audible sponsor
It was 149 and we recommended the Steve Jobs autobiography. Oh, sorry biography
I had I that's what I read when I was in New Zealand
I had to be a part of that maybe yeah
149 that's almost I get a couple of years 150 episodes ago it's almost three years ago three years ago
No way how long have we been doing the video podcast?
Dispersion two
Two-per-second when I live over two years no way September 2012
Oh, man
I was like a little bit chilly when I was walking through here during the podcast
And I was like, uh-huh, which I was kind of warmer and then I remembered doing the show in the old garage
The annex. Yeah when it was like yet floor here
He's outside space heaters behind the seat. No, no, no, no, cause hit a space heater behind the seat
It's an a-trap fire issue Like a space heater on a carpet or something?
The first time we used it, we blew the set it.
That was whenever we had the podcast that was like,
we had to move it across the next story.
Toaster, yeah.
We blew the breaker outside at the drop
from the city service.
Yeah, we weren't sure if it was melted.
Yeah, well, yeah.
We weren't sure if it was melted. Yeah, well, yeah We weren't sure if it was just an issue with you know bad wiring or if the whole system couldn't handle what we were doing
And it's like did we just design a whole set and a whole control room and run all these cables and we can't do the show here
It turns out that it was wired improperly. Yeah, whoever had set it up just fucked it up and totally did it wrong
Did you wire it? Yes? No, I would not do that.
I don't fuck with electricity.
Yeah, you should.
It's invisible and it can kill you.
Yeah, instantly.
Yeah, there's no way I'm fucking with that.
So I'm going to rewind a bit.
We're going to go back a bit.
When you were in college, you worked on another thing called the wingman.
It was a series
following like some college students around and
I wore the shirt today because of the wingman so I've seen it and I remember in one of the characters apartments
There's there's like paintings of of centars. Yeah, up on up on the wall
And I remember when estonite were watching it. We thought that's that's really cool
We should commission an ours to drop us as centars, but rock and roll
centars and call it centarmageddon.
So we commissioned Rogue Spider from the website
to do our interpretation.
So the show was me and a
Zach Anner and Marshall Rimmer was in it,
but it was a group of guys who did a dating
advice radio show and then they get fined by the FCC, like thousands and thousands of dollars.
So then they start up a dating service to make back the money and get dates for themselves.
Aaron's character was their best friend who was engaged and his wife was an artist and painted both of them as centars.
Yeah, so yeah, it was that painting that inspired me.
I remember you just told me that Chris, because the one I have, it's just like, I guess it's like charcoal.
Charcoal on white. To the dog to the dog. Best part.
That's a tarmac. I have a question. Um, yeah, I have a question. Were you descriptive on like how, uh, uh, I don't know, risk gave this pain?
It's basically like, what is it?
Let me show you what, what is it?
Let me show you what we look like Nate here.
That's hair.
Yeah, it's her hair.
It's all flowing.
Oh, okay.
It looked like a mustache.
Uh, that's just a mustache or a move.
I don't think, I think, you know, we, we got Rogue Spider from the website to, to, to draw it.
Uh, I don't think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, we, it looked like a mustache. Oh, it was just a mustache or a move. I don't think, I think, you know, we got Rogue Spider
from the website to draw it.
I think at the time he didn't have much experience drawing
in that style.
So we sent him a lot of like Boris Vallejo
and like, oh, like heavy metal album covers.
Like, this is the style we're looking for.
And it's like an iron made-
It's made in the cover, I know, or something.
Yeah, it makes you think of a style.
The that or like old Dungeons and Dragons like the Alex and stuff like that.
Like in a high fantasy out of like the late 70s early 80s.
Like heavy metal the old animated movie.
I have a question.
What'd it be weird if I wore that shirt?
I'll have to do.
You should sell it on the store.
No, if you made if you more, if I wore that shirt,
you'd have to be weird.
Everyone in the company one day just wore that shirt
with that previous outfit.
Let me be a little weird.
Even I feel weird wearing it,
because sometimes we'd be like,
oh, that's a cool shirt with it.
Oh, it's my wife and I.
I'm Robin Rolson, Tarz and our daughter.
Some kind of evil fairy.
And you know, that's her hair, not her mustache.
No, not her mustache.
No, not her mustache. Can you ever your chagu vera shirt and public?
No, I would wear that all the time if I were you I should that would be awesome
Yeah, I think a roach spider
He did the portraits of us if you guys have ever seen like this single. That's mental fusion. That's mental fusion does
Well, they both got plugs
So everybody wins did you you get your shit together?
I know. Now I'm the fucking amateur hour. He's trying to get a segue going and then I was just like
bam. Then nothing. This was a segue. See now we're in a moment. He was trying to like add on,
like he knew something as well about the subject. Oh, I just wanted to give credit. I just like
spending. So speaking of embarrassing moments. So Friday night
was Halloween and I couldn't stay out that late because my girlfriend had to get up really
early and work. So we didn't go too crazy. And then it was Saturday night and we're like,
well, you know, this is Austin and whenever this Halloween, people just party all weekend.
So even though it's November 1st, everybody's gonna be dressed up. So we put on our costumes and she was in a very, very baggy,
pug costume, like pug outfit.
And then I had like this giant net, like I was a dog catcher.
And like, before you continue, you had different costumes for Halloween
and the day after Halloween?
Well, it was fucking cold on Halloween because I was wearing Spandex and she was just wearing like a small skirt and a short
blouse
So we kind of improvised she already had that costume so she improvised a pug costume
Yeah, she already had that pug costume and her dresser
I remember like looking for socks and finding that and being like well, we'll let this one go
So she she had that and I was like well, how can I accessorize that?
So I put together the dog catcher thing.
So we put on these costumes and then we went downtown,
took a lift and it's F1 weekend, big race.
So there's tons of people downtown
because they closed whole sections.
So when we get out of the car,
there's about 200 people next to us,
just kind of like checking everything out, And not one of them are in costume.
It's the two of us in a giant pug outfit, and then me and my stupid net, and then a bunch
of people just staring at us and giving us really weird looks.
And I immediately called another lift, and then we went back home, I changed, and then
we came back out, and that's when we came back out and that's when we met you. What did you think that was the giant putt out there?
No, to be fair.
That does happen.
That happens.
I thought it happened before.
Here's what happens.
If Halloween happens on like a Monday, then people dress up all weekend.
Well, or Halloween on Sunday.
Halloween on Sunday, they'll dress up Friday Saturday.
Where are these rules
there college where the hell were you in college remember that was some time
you dress up Thursday Friday Saturday and Sunday for us on Sunday
you just work you can go you can dress up any day of the week leading up to
howling
most part of the lift driver there was like oh yeah tons of people are dressed
up and we're like really like yeah I'm like okay he was fucking with you
yeah I'm never so up and we're like really? He's like, yeah, I'm like, okay, he was fucking with you. Yeah, and I'm a little bit of a bad guy.
He was like, I'm gonna get another,
the only ones dressed up that I can see at the end of the night.
He's like, I'm gonna get another ride.
Yeah.
That night, I went out to a party,
then afterwards I went to a Halloween night,
I went out to a party, and afterwards I went to star seats,
you know, the 24 hour diner.
Oh yeah.
And I drunkenly ate some food with my wife and some friends.
And when we were all done, you know, I was going to just head back to my place.
And Alan was with us.
Alan Abdeen.
And he's like, Oh, you know, I'm just going to get in an Uber and take an Uber back to my place.
And we looked and the surge charge was 10 times normal price. Asshole.
Paul's friend paid $120 to get back to the apartment.
And it's a five minute walk.
Oh my god.
That's how much it was?
Yeah, $120.
Yeah, we watched it going up.
Like the first time we checked it was $8.4.
He's like, that's crazy.
Let's refresh it.
$9.1.
That's the higher than I've ever seen.
What is it now?
10. Like, that was 10.0.
Wait, so is that with Uber?
You said that was Uber.
Does lift do something similar?
Or no, do they like, it can, but I've never seen
the prices get that high.
Like, there will be times where it's like,
this is a, you know, in demand time.
That is a good thing about like taxi cabs.
Their price doesn't escalate.
Right.
But they don't exist either.
They're hard to get.
Yeah, exactly. It'll be like,
there's a three hour wait for a cab. No, and they tell you to use the app. So then you book it.
And in the app, it also tells you your cab driver might just pick up somebody randomly and not
pick you up. And it's like, don't tell me that in the app. Like don't let me at least hope. Yeah.
But I mean, they just don't show up sometimes like some of those cab companies
I mean you'll have a book. They'll be like yeah
Yeah, you know if you speak to someone on the phone they'll be like yeah, I'll be there at 10 p.m. Or whatever and then they just won't show
Yeah, I sometimes I take a cab to the airport and I like I just freak out
I'm like are they gonna show up are they not gonna show up like I might have to get my car at the last minute
It's it's such a stupid business. That's why you do lift because you're like no guys right?
Roll our cars guys again. No
Let's see how many lift drivers are doing a car to go which is like the oh yeah another like car share service
We just get in a car and drive it yeah, put the car to go and like it'll be waiting for you
Just it doesn't disappear. Yeah, cuz you just like reserve it and it like locks itself in yours
Yeah, I'm gonna request a lift
So Lauren drew you Aaron like reserve it and it locks itself in your I'm going to request a lift
So Lauren, Drew you, Aaron
Drew you driving your car
That's exactly what I look like
It says you can be this cool too probably
No, what she's missing is all the paint
And the tape
There is some masking tape on the window that she drew
I like how she does have the lack of women in the picture
That's pretty cool The lack of women in the picture that's pretty cool
lack of see Isaac would arrive in four minutes. I'm sorry Isaac I need to cancel
this ride see this is the problem. Oh you're a fucking
This is the problem people. No I'm not a jerk. I use I use lift like
at least twice a weekend because I gotta go and come back. No no I am a dedicated
customer although I'm super paranoid because I never see how they rate me.
Because they rate you.
Oh, they rate me.
Yeah, yeah.
Because like, I'll like sometimes I'll give somebody
three stars, but I don't want to, you know,
have them again, if they're like cars really shitty,
but it's like, how do they, like how much,
what can I do to see that?
As a passenger, you cannot see your own rating.
Correct.
But as a driver, they can see your ratings.
Yeah, you know, they decide whether or not they want to pick you up or not.
That's interesting.
Yeah, I just want to know how I rate.
What makes...
Sorry, go ahead.
So, like, I kind of fucked up with this whole Uber thing, because for a long time, you
couldn't get Uber in Austin.
Yeah.
And the first time I tried to use it, I finally downloaded it, and I signed up.
I was in Melbourne, Australia.
So now, Uber thinks I live in Australia.
So like all the emails they send me
are relevant to Melbourne.
They're like, no, no, no, no, I really live in Austin.
I just happen to be in Australia at the time
and I cannot get it fixed.
I don't know why.
They just, they don't care.
I'm locked in.
I'm in Australia.
So I got it in Austin.
We'll lock it for you, Mr. Australia.
Yeah.
They really don't care. I didn't really know what I was doing with lift when I first downloaded it. I didn't'll lock it for you Mr. Australia. Yeah, they really don't care
I didn't really know what I was doing with lift when I first downloaded it
I didn't think I'd overuse it so I just it was like take a picture yourself so I took a picture and
It ended it's like super creepy and awkward because it's just like this low angle
I'm making this really weird face and I was like I'll just change this later
There's no way you cannot change that picture so every time someone chooses to pick me up
They see that oh my god bring the rapes pray. What the rapes? Explore this.
Pepper spray. Pepper spray. I'm gonna stop. You have people snorring off camera. I want
to leave. I got to pay my bills. I got to pay my bills. I got to get it going to take you away from this, Chris. I'm going to save you. I went out to the laser team set earlier today because we have some people from the infamous
535 visiting and Bernie, that asshole.
That sounds like a flight that bombed or something or crashed.
Or, you know, a flight that was in the middle of the night.
I was like, I'm going to go to the other side of the room and then I'm going to go to the other side of the room.
I'm going to go to the other side of the room and then I'm going to go to the other side of the room.
I'm going to go to the other side of the room and then I'm going to go to the other side of the room.
I'm going to go to the other side of the room and then I'm going to go to the other side of the room. that asshole. That's okay. Just kind of just say that the infamous 535 sounds like a flight
that bombed or something and that or crashed or like there's rapes. Right. Lights are
always like three numbers and to say like they're not always three numbers.
Aren't they? Oh, what it sounds like to me is like a fire fighting unit. Yeah, I can see that.
Yeah, it's like the New York, the infamous 535.
But infamous is different than famous, you know,
like it's, it infamous suggests like something.
That's why the two different words were the word.
Yeah, okay, well, all right, go on.
So these are people who,
these are the people who broke the,
our Indiegogo campaign basically,
where we had the, the $5 perk where you could come,
be an extra on tour the studio, and there was so much supposed to be one but the system allowed
for 535 would have been processed. So Bernie that asshole when he wrote
of the description for the perk also indicated you get one free hug from Gus.
Oh my God. Is that legally binding? So I would feel bad if I didn't do it. So I went
out there to set today,
and I hugged as many people as I could.
It was like, there was a line.
And like the PA's and then we were like,
is this okay, Mr. Sreller?
Do you want us to get rid of them?
Do you want to go somewhere else?
Like, no, no, I'm here to hug everyone.
That's a roll of gang bang.
And people can walk up there,
like, I can't believe you agreed to do this.
And I said, I didn't agree to do this.
Bernie just rode it.
Now I'm here hugging people now.
Did you fake a smile?
Or was it just like the typical like Gus Brown?
Like, no, no.
I was happy to be out there.
It was cool to go out there and see what they were filming.
I mean, I was not only spent, I think,
two days on the set previously.
So then going back out and seeing what they were filming
was really impressive.
This period of time.
Yeah, movies really funny though.
Have you seen that?
Yeah.
I've walked by, we have some people working on editing
and I'll walk by the stations every now and then
get little glimpses of myself.
You're looking sexy in it.
Looks good.
I had one of the coolest exchanges with a fan I've
ever had at Rooster Teeth, on set.
He's this kid from Colleen and he was a big fan of us.
He's also a big fan of movies. he's also a big fan of like movies
kind of what he wants to do and he was like honestly, you know, I really love being here
because it's like a movie set, you know, you guys being here is, you know, is good, but
it's definitely number two in terms of like why I want to be here.
The fact that the movie says number one and I don't know if people would think that's
like offensive at first, but it was actually like The best answer I have ever heard in my life
Like he wanted to be there just because he likes movies not because it's Mr.
There's passion. Yeah, it's like it was really cool
Like he was excited by the set and about that this is real production because I don't know how many behind the scenes pictures
We've released but there's like you know five trailers, you know But there's like five trailers. There's 10 different 18 wheelers there full
of grip equipment.
It's like a crew of like 50 craft services.
I'm just gonna.
The craft service is really good.
Chris goes there I think every day and he just has dinner
and they just leaves.
I think that's what he does.
No, but I have gone and gotten, I was like,
man, these are just good, yummy.
Good yummy.
Oh, God. Yeah, I was like, man, these are just good yummies. Good yummies. Oh, okay.
Yeah, I was really impressed.
Like, you figure it's gonna be like shitty food.
No, it's so different.
Oh, it's tasty.
I feel like they don't just,
like we're going on and on about these people.
They don't just bring food in.
They like, they cook it there in that one trailer
and then just like bring it out.
Yeah.
And they make food for everyone.
I think in film school, someone said something about like,
a set is, what is that?
Sorry, I was going to go on. Let's finish it. So we'll get to that. But like a film production is made or it's broken by craft services
Like if your crew isn't happy by I mean within these fucking stupid, but like no, but if your crew isn't happy
Like that's it's a metaphor essentially like if you don't spend it but you don't spend the time on like a nice sandwich or something or you know
whatever then they'll be like I don't take care of the people who are supposed to
be taking care of you you know they're not gonna do their job thank you Gus
I totally agree okay yeah I can see that he's the one that would feed them
gruel he's like oh we have plenty of gruel for all of the you know the film
people here you like gruel gruel and a banana gruel for all of the, you know, the film people here. You like gruel? Gruel and a banana. Gruel and a banana. You know why it's because I see those receipts.
Food that heads up, people don't understand how expensive that's food on a set is.
That's what some manners are.
Man is a great way.
Banana is a great way.
Banana is a great way.
So, but it's like pizza again today.
Yeah.
You not want pizza? You fucking ate the pizza.
You're over here bitching about how expensive it is, but you sat over there and ate like three slices. I wasn't complaining. I was just saying as somebody who pays for the pizza, you're over here bitching about how expensive it is But you sat over there and ate like three slices. I wasn't complaining
I was just saying as somebody who pays for the stuff
I understand why you like buying pizza
It's gonna be broadcast very cheap and it feeds a lot of people. It's good pizza. It is good. Good pizza
I'm just saying it's also very affordable
Everybody wins. It's easy is the reason you get it
It's like I don't really don't want to have to walk pass around a fucking order menu forever No, that's true. It's to indicate what reason you get it. It's like, I don't really want to have to pass around a fucking order menu for everyone to indicate what they want.
Oh, God, when we shot 10 Little Roosters, someone was like, can we do witch witch?
And I was like, okay, like I never said no when people wanted something specific.
And it's hard enough to order witch witch when you're there because you have like the giant questionnaire of what you want.
Right.
But people are at my computer and
Like going through like scrolling one by one to see all the ingredients they had and then they kept trying to joke and have
Conversations on top of it was like no, no, no, no concentrate and like ordering which which took like half an hour I don't remember back when we were still in the congress office
We used to live and die by that Chipotle facts menu. Mm-hmm
It was like we would have like a stack of them in the Congress office, we used to live and die by that Chipotle facts menu. It was like, we would have like a stack of them
in the kitchen.
And it's like, you could just ride,
and it was super easy.
You wrote your name,
and it's like you indicated protein, meal,
and like accessories, like accessories.
But like jewelry, anything you want to know.
Yeah, but it was super easy and super fast.
You fax it in and just pick it up.
Yeah, I don't have a fancy machine anymore.
Like we don't, what are you going to do?
It's a person, you're gonna get a really big breed.
I'm just saying.
God damn it.
If you order it on, they're gonna give the bare minimum,
but if you go in person, you can really,
you talk to him on the podcast.
I don't know.
I don't know, sure though.
You bully them.
Chris bullies.
And eating you with food.
Let's say you go, you're like, what do you want?
And I burrito, this is Chris ordering.
I burrito, okay, they put it in the thing, they heat it up. go you're like what you want a burrito. This is Chris order a burrito
Okay, they put it in the thing they heat it up
What kind of beans do you want you know black? Okay? Can you put more than that?
That's it. That's right. And then what kind of rice do you want cilantro lime? Okay? Can you put more than that?
Okay, yeah, everything is double everything
Yeah, and the whole time he's holding like except for me
Waving except for meat waving except for me.
That's a good job.
Yeah, because they charge x for me.
But Blaine, he was like, oh, what you do is you order half and half
and they always end up giving you almost a full serving of both.
I haven't done that yet, but.
Absolutely.
I've never thought to do that.
Yeah, I never thought of doing it either.
They already have a hard enough time closing my burritos.
So I don't know.
Your burritos don't close.
They do not close.
They break the burrito and then they're like,
I'm sorry, I'm like, there's a pretty fun art.
They may put an electric tea on this.
I'm like, you just throw it on top, I don't care.
There's a pretty funny arty life about that
when we got your burrito back to the office.
It was the size of a small child.
It was big.
I was really proud of that one.
The worst thing is he pays with coupons too,
every time.
So like I do all this double stuff and then he's like, oh, and this is a free
burrito. Like he does every time. Every time. Oh, that's true. Well, I will say this on Halloween.
If you wear a costume, it's only $3. So I did get a $3 burrito. That was pretty big.
Bernie got so fed up with Chris. He threw away all of Chris's. So Chick-fil-A calendars
through away all of Chris's so Chick-fil-A calendars
because they had like a discount
for like every month
because we just had like in our area
upstairs a huge stack of Chipotle
no, Chick-fil-A
I'm sorry, Chick-fil-A actually it was uh, Jersey mics
but no, it was
I remember both
all the cows were like in really like ironic
yeah, but it was also Jersey mics
they didn't have a calendar though they did were like in really like ironic. Yeah, but it's also Jersey mics. They get a couple.
They didn't have a calendar though.
They do.
Jesus, how many calendars do you have?
I'm just saying.
Chris has, I remember seeing a folder one time in college
and Chris is coupons.
Like he has a coupon folder.
And I mean, it's this isn't college.
I don't have it anymore.
Yeah, it's double the size now.
But like he has this folder,
it's got to be probably about that thick by now.
And it's just, I don't know if it's alphabetized or what but it has everything like it is i mean it's
a gold mine for anyone looking for value that i was way better about it in college when
i was like completely broke but i see you pay with coupons all the damn time now are you
are you a fan of like those extreme couponing tv show that i don't do any that i just
like i take my mail because they send you stuff in the mail all
time. I'm like, oh, that's cool. Put that in my car and I just leave it in my car and they want
I'm hungry. I'm like, well, all right, I'll go here because yeah, I think Chris bought a house with
a coupon. It's like that lady from the honey boo boo show. Have you seen her? No one wants
to show. I know what it is. Yeah, it's like the mom that's all she does is just like out of the store.
You guys should watch the shows pretty good.
It's an episode.
Yeah, it's canceled now.
Oh yeah, because she got like,
I'm gonna say too much boo-boo.
What happened to her?
She got back, allegedly, I don't know the full story.
She got back together with an ex
who had spent time in jail for child molestation.
And supposedly it was with one of her daughters.
That's really gross.
That's right.
I want to make a, no, just leave it.
So I did want to point out that we have,
going back to an earlier conversation,
we have a Brandon's Uber or
Lyft or a file picture. I didn't know what it was for. I thought it was just
maybe like an internet icon that my friends are gonna see it, but now every time
some I ask for a lift, there's like 20 lift drivers that are driving around
and my little picture pops up and they're like, do you want to accept a ride from
this guy?
So I like that it's like in our office with our
Wood paneling that looks like it's from a psycho. Yeah
You're gonna face it's tough like you almost see the rhino we have hanging up there
But it's just not quite in frame. So our only piece of decoration in the office
One time when I took a guy I've told the story long time ago in the podcast, but one time
When our office was still on Congress, I used to take the bus to and from my, the house I was renting at the time because it was, it was really convenient. I didn't like
to drive, but one night I had to work late. I missed the last bus. I was like, I'm just
going to get a cab. I'll take a cab back to, to my place. I got in the cab and the, as
soon as I got in, the cab driver was listening to Alex Jones.
I was like, okay, it's gonna be an interesting ride.
And the whole trip, the cab driver just kept staring at me in the rearview mirror.
And not looking at the road, just looking at me, telling me how he was gonna put the light in me.
What?
And it was like, oh my god, I was like, I really don't want this guy knowing where I live.
No, I know, so you just drive to Jeff's house.
I thought about just being like,
okay, right here's fine.
Like, we're probably gonna block certain.
No, no, this is great.
You have to rape spray?
Yeah.
So like, yeah, I had him drop me off
like at a convenience store close to my house.
I just like walked home.
I was like, the guy was fucking crazy.
But that's the opposite.
If you get in a cab, you don't have the luxury of seeing
if the person's got a crazy picture
No, the cab java is crazy though
I was in Vegas one time and I had to sit in the front because it was just like me and these like my girlfriend at the time and like four or five of her friends
And I was making conversation. This was right after a guy had flown a plane into the IRS building in Austin
Mm-hmm
So I'd say like you know we're from Austin and he like kind of brings that up I was like yeah, it happened. So I'd say like, you know, we're from Austin
and he like kind of brings that up.
I was like, yeah, it happened.
It was pretty crazy.
Like, what a psycho.
And then the cab driver kind of looks at me.
He's kind of quiet for a second.
He's like, well, you know, some people might call him a hero.
I was like, what?
He was like, well, you know what the government does.
It's like they don't have the right to do that.
Sometimes you have to make a really dramatic gesture.
And by this time everybody in the cab like all the girls stop talking and everybody just looked
up at me and we all sat there and I was like actually this hotel is fine and
then we drove in and we had a wait to get up to the light.
It's not me here, I know, I'll just put it out right now.
Yeah, that's right.
I don't know if they do that to mess with you. Maybe they mess with us.
Like we mess with people on Smite a lot when we play.
We do.
We have fun with that.
You and Tom.
So don't really when we get into the Smite,
before your game starts, you're grouped up.
And then there's a lobby where we all can chat.
Brandon loves typing.
This is my first game, LOL.
And then I'll normally write, what button is attack? And if you will say, left, and then I'll normally write what button is attack.
And if you will say left click, it'll right click question mark.
And then Barbara got it and then we're like, ASL.
It was just like everybody else was just like, fuck.
Is it? Yeah, you're stuck with these these idiots. And then when you get to the actual loading screen, you see, oh, these people have actually played a fair amount.
Yeah.
But it's it branded like we always try to make each other laugh.
Like we say the same game play room over here and we'll try to
say stuff in chat that makes everyone else in the room laugh. I think it's just
like 10 years of Xbox live and like listening to kids. I don't know why it's
like I never imagined it still makes me laugh. It's the little things in life
guys that make everything else bearable. Did you have you played any of the
evolve alpha? I have not. I think it's really fucking fun. I played it all that make everything else bearable. Did you, have you played any of the Evolve Alpha?
I have not.
That game's really fucking fun.
I played it all week and long.
It's good.
I don't have anything else to say since I was played it.
It's a good game.
You get to be a monster or you can be people.
What kind of monsters?
There's two monsters available right now in the Alpha.
You're the Goliath or another one that looks like a big squid.
I can't remember the name.
Crackin' there you go.
Thank you.
Crackins are big, man.
Everybody loves to crack it.
We were talking about this the other day.
About how crackins were really popular for a while,
and then they went away and now they're back.
Is that like 10 years ago or something
that they're popular or what?
No, it's everywhere you go, there's crackins.
Because you summon these, what?
Yeah, you summon the crack?
Yeah, you summon it. Is that why it's popular? You summon it popular because of, the movies. What? Yeah, you summon the crack. Yeah, you summon it.
Is that why it's popular?
You summon it popular because of a...
It's like Beetlejuice.
No, I'm not saying cracking.
What is that movie?
The Pirates of the Caribbean?
Something like that.
Where they're always summon a crack.
It's like, bring in the crack and summon it.
It's fun.
It's like as a writer.
You realize how lazy that is.
It's like, oh, what are we going to do? Someone had right into this. Crack and shows up.
But really, crack and so scary.
That they are. So big like sea monster. Right? Yeah, what? The sea, the ocean in general
is scary to me. Well, because you have said no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, intertwined and it was just like all Riding into cruel
It's a Pokemon. Sorry And it looked like it was fake. It looked like something like you said out of a nightmare
I don't like a horror movie. It's like no, this is a real thing. Yeah, that lives and we just don't ever see it
Yeah, and you imagine like you're swimming out in open water something like you had a nice boat
And you're out in the Pacific and you're just swimming with a tentacrull or whatever it is and it's just like that's you don't know
it's there.
Oh, it's something brushes your leg and you're like, oh, it's probably a playful dolphin.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Yeah, I guess the way that the ocean makes sense to me, it's like, if you're a fish and
you get attacked, you're dead, you're done, right?
It's like you get hit by a car in real life.
So you're crossing this street, you look to your left, you look to your right, but in the
ocean, it's like, well, look above you, see if a car is going to fall on your head or
hey, is a car rising from the ground.
Yeah, it's like every axis, there is something coming after you.
And then at the time, where you're paranoid about everything attacking you, you're also
really hungry.
And you're looking to attack other stuff.
Like it has to be, it stresses me out, breaking about it.
Okay, wait, I just had to think, this is really dumb.
Don't fish it thirsty.
Be careful.
What if fish drink?
Huh.
No, no, I'm just saying, I know they're in salt water.
Okay, but do they just, okay, I'm just,
do they drink water?
Drink salt water?
Do they drink salt water?
Is that what they drink?
Do they just, how do they process it?
We don't need a drink.
No, they have, like what, do they just drink,
do I guess they just process salt water, huh?
How do I have a show with you? Like how do we get like anything made? They have like what do they just drink to I guess they've just processed salt water, huh?
How do I have a show with you like how do we get like anything made?
I mean, but you don't know the answer either right?
I'm not saying it's just process
Salt water is up their deal is maybe they don't need water I mean because they're in the water and they're always hydrated
Maybe they just it's like osmosis and they just absorb like how to define osmosis.
As osmosis is something that it's, it's basically absorbs by, uh, connect by being next to it. So
it's like, it's, it's not drank. It's just like, um, skin. Oh, that's right. That's right.
Yeah, that's right. I wore it exactly when my biology textbook said, yeah, it's like a process of
the thing with next to it and the thing, what did it say? Someone just give me a note. This is how my name is Gavin. You're
Gavin. No, but I will find. But I'm serious. Like, salt water is like, it makes you
thirsty. Only does is all it does is make you thirsty. Right. But these are creatures
that live in salt water. So they're like, we're not. It makes you thirsty, right, but these are creatures that live in salt water So they're a gap. You're not it makes you thirsty Chris. It doesn't make a fish thirsty like fish are fine
They're just they're moist. That's all they need
Right like if you were in a swimming pool you'd never get thirsty
Why what what do you mean because you got water all around you? That's most is yeah, but that's not how works
I Put that back on you because you got water all around you. You got someosis. Yeah, but that's not how it works.
All right, let's put that back on you. I don't know, I have no idea.
If anybody on Twitter knows, they can tweet us
with hashtag on your podcast.
What if this does when it's thirsty?
Someone says like J. Volton says,
saltwater fish get their water from what they eat.
But what are those fish?
Yeah, exactly.
There's someone who's like, they're all fucking thirsty
and they're in the motion.
It's like, god damn, I wish it would rain.
Well no, there has to be some fish that everybody's eating
that's like, has a stash somewhere.
Yeah, fresh water.
He's holding out on everyone else.
This is like water fish that's like,
I'm always getting eaten.
They just need me. It's like, man, I'm really thirsty. I could go for a bite to eat. So someone told me I told you
about the like the riding mass of snakes. I guess they're called basket stars. And this I have
an image here. The image is not moving. It's a gift that's still loading. But if you can imagine that
but every shit part of it riding around. Oh my god.
I'm so scared of the ocean because like,
look at that.
So yeah, that's a real thing.
That's one thing.
That's a bunch of things together.
Yeah, that's one thing.
It's called a basket.
It's got a great new thing.
Yeah, to me, I don't know.
Here's, it's's like okay, so
So what we're fast thanks to newbs 28 Brandon new burger for telling me basket starts. Thank you
The ability to fight in the water right you try and punch something have you were trying to punch something in the water
I have yeah, yeah, you don't it doesn't happen. You just slowly touch it. Yeah, it's like
It's you go for the eyes Chris. Yeah, you got to gouge out the shark's eyes. Yeah
Oh, I heard you go for the nose. Oh, yeah people too. I'm just saying it's like the ocean is no get out of the ocean
Yeah, get it people want to go like scuba diving. It's like why you you are not supposed to be you evolved on
The ground like on land like you should not be anywhere near the ocean.
Like everything about your body is designed to keep you from the ocean.
People are, people skydiving stuff too though.
It's like, and that's also done.
But to be fair, when you're skydiving, you're heading back towards the ground.
When you're in the ocean, if you generally head back away from the ocean,
you float towards the surface. Not if you're drowning.
We co-down towards the bottom of the ocean.
No, I think you're still floating. You're just drowned.
But you float like partly underwater.
I'm trying to. Okay, that was much better in the last time.
Gus, when you took calculus in high school, you guys have like the TA T.I. 89's?
Calculates. No, we didn't have 89's we had
83
We had 83's and 84's
You know the models and when they came out yeah 84's were brand new I think when
81's really well, I think there was so yeah T.I. 80 put it
I think I think I used an 83 and they're like they're like 70 little. Well, I think there was a- So yeah, TI 80, whatever. I think I used to need a three.
And they're like, they're like 70 bucks.
Fuck back then, it was like 120, but yeah.
So you were required, like you had to have.
Well, you didn't have to, but you were pretty much fucked
if you didn't.
Yeah.
So there was this kid in, I think it was in Austin,
he and his friends stole $20,000 worth
of graphing calculators from a school and then tried to sell them.
That's a graphing calculator.
Then tried to sell them on Craigslist.
And then tried to sell them on Craigslist.
Like all at once or one at a time.
All at once and they got caught.
But that's such a good idea because they're so expensive.
Like they're unbelievably expensive.
And there's just like, yeah, everybody needs them and you go to a school and they just have like tons of
them but they have like it's genius it's the perfect crime except for you got
caught. Oh yeah he did that classic mistake when you steal something you go
immediately to the pawn store like you don't sell your TI 80 whatever's
immediately. If you steal like a hundred of them. Yeah still them one at a time.
Yeah just someone I tell you still make some good money. I mean like
Craigslist for sale
183 not stolen
Stalk show up at this school the next day is saying I hear you need calculators
I'm the I'm the door-to-door calculator salesman. Yeah, I'm here to make you a deal
That's so dumb. Why would you try to sell them all at once? I guess I did not look like the brightest
Person yeah, yeah, there's a good mug shot though. I can't believe that the school had calculates maybe
There is again, maybe I just went to a really cheap school, but our school didn't provide us with Calculates
It's crazy I had thought I bought my thing I bought my calculator for like 40 bucks at a pawn shop No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't upgrade on the box. You're still doing the same math with them. Well, they have more games to them. The components should be really cheap by this point.
It's like a shitty LCD display. Like two bucks of
the right. It's only one company that makes them.
Like, is it an insurance? Yeah.
This is decided. Like, why don't we start making calculations?
HP makes some as well. Is this similar to like a textbook thing where they're like,
you know, you need it and there's like a high cost of developing it or whatever slash writing it if it's textbook
And so they're like we'll just hit you with this huge is that what it is or I don't know
They can do more complex problems now more memory. Yeah, but let's talk so cold and the control is telling me that the
Calculus now have more memory and you can do more complex problems. No, they hold more games
It's going down true
but they still only have like 30 megs of memory maybe and they
There's still the same model number. It's like if you buy a brand new TI 83 today
It's still super fucking expensive. There's no reason
They'll always keep it that much. It's crazy to me to look like that was in public public school
Like when I needed one in high school and it's when you're paying something like a hundred bucks or something for a calculator
that's really expensive for public school like you shouldn't have to pay anything like
that I mean it's also free school yeah but there's free if you pay a hundred bucks for a calculator
you probably you know would go to non-free school if you pay a hundred bucks for a calculator
you can't afford not for school.
No, the goal, here's the deal.
I have no problem with calculators being expensive
because when you have teachers don't allow,
you have a cell phone in the middle in class.
They do allow calculators and you can put games
on your calculator.
So it's basically an excuse to play games
in the middle of class.
And it's there's some of them are educational.
Like, I had a game where it was like,
I had a band of students, and I had to manage employees.
I was a PIMP, but nevertheless.
It was a pretty, like, drug-drag.
It was pretty sophisticated.
Drug, something.
Yeah, yeah, it was similar.
Yeah.
You know, when I was in middle school,
I convinced my class that I wrote snakes.
Oh, could really?
Yeah, I wrote a dumb, simple. I wrote snakes and gorillas, because I knew enough basic to
change some of like the modifiers in the game.
Like, oh yeah, see, I can change it for you.
And they're like, oh wow, yeah, this is a really great game.
I wonder like to this day, like to see it on like a Nokia phone, they're like, yeah, you
know, Gus made that game.
And I was listening to podcasts and I'm like, they live the live.
They're wondering what is cool with this too, stupid.
Man, I used to come up, I can't remember anything.
It's cool, it's stupid. I used to come up, I can't remember anything. My school is so stupid.
I did the same thing, Gus, right?
Tell people I made stuff and invented things.
Like rape spray.
Like he was the first one to put that in a bottle.
So like the school I went to was really, really dumb and super, like I don't know, I don't
know the words to describe it, like super tough,
like digital cost at fights and I don't know how I got through that school but we had like plastic
lunch cards, they were kind of like credit cards so when you went to pay for your lunch you
would like swipe it and it would you know debit from your meal account but what all the students
started doing was they would take whole punchers and like carve off an edge on it.
That way it was sharp and had like a little hook.
That way when you fought, you could use it like a knife.
What?
You have to prison it.
Like they would make like these little impromptu knives and they couldn't take it away from them because it was their meal card.
And then girls would like use whole punches on their, they would grow their fingernails long and use whole punchers on the tips.
That way each finger would be able to keep up to the stabbing points and when they would get in fights it would just be like super bloody
because they'd scratch each other and like blood and hair and shit would go everywhere.
Uh, and one time when I was in...
I was a sophomore.
When you were fighting for your life, I was a sophomore.
We actually had a school shooting in my school like a girl brought a gun to kill another girl
at the school
But she had sharpened her fingernails, so she defended she deflected the bullets
The girl who was gonna get shot like tackled and beat up the girl with the gun
So like the gun went off and like the only thing that got shot was the ceiling
The girl just got like suspended for a few days and they like came back to school
It was just like man, they had to be fair. They took away her gun
They did take away her gun. She did not get that back. She had to go buy another one when she bought her T.I.
You don't have like in school suspension that's it
Yeah, where did you go to school? It's out in the border some shit
It was fucking awful. We had a lot of fights at our school figure. I don't like school
We're gonna start growing out my fingernails and punch in holes
So wandering around the office waiting for something?
Yeah.
We had a lot of fights at our school.
And I guess it was like this everywhere.
But it's like, when a fight broke out, everybody was super excited.
And they all ran to the fight because they wanted to watch.
Well, it was one time where a fight broke out in the bathroom.
And I saw it because I was in the bathroom peeing.
And I was like midstream and this fight breaks out and then people start yelling
And then hordes of people start rushing into the bathroom and I can't do anything about it
I would always just well
You know, I do even a stoop from hey Arnold. There was this kid who was setting paper towel dispensers on fire in my school
Like in my high school and he just kept like no one could figure out who it was,
and he'd set them on fire, set them on fire, set them on fire.
Well, there was also this other kid
who would go to the urinal and pee with his pants down,
all the way down by his ankles,
and apparently they walked into the bathroom
at the same time, and they just made this pact.
It was like, I won't tell you,
I won't say that you did this
if you don't say that I still do this,
and they still couldn't figure out who it was.
You know, he just kept setting the phone for.
Yeah, honor.
Don't say I'd be with my pants down.
Yeah, I'm going to read this other thing.

So, big thanks to Squarespace. Yeah, it's awesome.
I'm going to continue telling awful high school stories, specifically about the bathroom,
because now that's that's where I'm. That's where I'm.
So, since like you've determined, I essentially went to a prison for a high school.
None of the bathroom stalls had doors, because they couldn't trust the students with doors.
So, it's like, and the bathroom has also never had toilet paper.
So it's like, you could not take a dump at school or you did, you did it with no door and
no toilet paper.
It was like, it was presented.
It was like, you take a dump, why not say you take a dump.
It was like, just understood.
It was like, that's the way it is because we're animals and we can't be trusted.
And similar to your fight story, one time I was I was using the bathroom. So my the whole high school was bad but there was one
wing of the high school that was really bad and I really had to go so like God
I'm gonna go to the bad wing. I'm gonna pee in there. He's the east side. And I was
standing next to a guy. I was at one year adult. He was at the other. We were both
peeing. A group of guys walk walking the bathroom and they just sucker punch the guy to my right
Like fucking knock him the fuck out he falls to the ground
They circle around him. I start kicking the shit out of him
Well, he's on the ground and I'm like I just gotta finish
You know I can't stop it will burn. It's like I'm just gonna finish his and walk out
Hopefully they don't hit me before then.
You're just trying to like fit in and like kick him to.
I'm gonna go look out for anybody coming.
One time in middle school, I was standing next to this girl.
I was waiting to get picked up by my parents after school.
And I was standing next to this girl.
And we were both like standing by the street waiting
for our parents. And I kind of got like a little shove to the side. I was like, to this girl and we were both standing by the street waiting for our parents
and I kinda got a little shoved to the side.
I was like, oh, that's weird.
And I turned and I looked and the girl that I got in
shoved to the ground and a gang of girls
was around her kicking her on the ground.
And I remember this day looking at her face on the ground
and seeing the imprint of shoes on her face
or where she was getting stomped on the face.
And I was like, I just want to go
home. Do I really have to continue going to school? Is this why you're such a hard-ass today?
You went to that school? I never talked about the first time I moved to a new school, went to the bathroom.
Did you ever tell that story? I don't think so. So I went to a new school and went to the bathroom.
went to new school and went to the bathroom. I was nervous. A new state, new school, didn't know anyone. Go to the bathroom. IP, and I go out to wash my hands. It's weird because
it was a weird like long sink, like a really long sink. Oh, a pistroff? No. What are you
talking about? A long sink. And so I go and I'm washing my hands off.
It's like a really longsink.
That's weird.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
And I'm washing my hands in this kid comes in the bathroom
and he's just staring at me.
And I'm already self-conscious
because I'm like the new kid in the school.
And he's staring at me like I'm a weird,
like he looks at me like,
what is wrong with you?
I'm like, all right, whatever.
I'm washing my hands in the sink and I leave.
And then I come back to go to the bathroom again at lunch.
It was a piss trough.
I'm totally rowing that Chris.
I'm so sorry.
I was washing my hands in the toilet.
What did you guess for so much?
You're not think it was weird that the soap was wearing.
I was like, where is the soap?
The normal soap.
Well, sometimes you have the little thing in the in the bottom of the
No, I was just
Did you use the drill? No, I just was like where's the soap? I guess they're out
And so I just because it was it was a big trot like big old urinal and they just had a pipe that had water
Constantly pouring out of it. I had never seen that before in my life
I wouldn't peed in the toilet. He was a senior by the way
And I was washing my hands. There was this I didn't look and see that there were sinks right next to the
He was nervous. He started washing his face, but they would I stop but I walked in I was like
Why are they ping in the sink?
So did you guys like the rest of your day with filthy piss hands?
It was no it wasn't piss and no one peed on my hands.
It was just the water.
You just washed them in the urinal.
Yes.
That's piss water.
No, it's piss hands.
You had pee.
All right, well, whatever.
I'm gonna argue that.
I might have washed my hands in the toilet.
But it was an innocent mistake.
I didn't know I was young.
How old were you?
I was like 10 or 11. Okay. Oh
That's awful
Yeah, I'm just glad there was only one dude who walked into the bathroom. It wasn't like
One of those time. Do you think he's on a podcast right now?
Telling this story about the time he's also watching his hands in the in the urinal I was pissing on this kids hands
What a game. I mean this look that was like,
like, like, I don't know.
I was like, what am I doing wrong?
I'm just trying to fit in.
See, I feel like so much about growing up as a guy is just peeing on stuff.
Like there's so many, there's so many, I think,
times in your life that you can like isolate where you've been peeing on random things.
And it's kind of like
Your progression like you see the movie boyhood. I
Well, I don't know how to watch it and it's the one thing that I thought was missing is he never peed on anything
I do remember as a child
Coming out of a movie and peeing and thinking this is the longest anyone has ever peed
This is gotta be like I've've, because I, you know,
you watch it in the movie and you really, really have to pee. And I was just like, no one has ever
peed this long. I've, this is gotta be the most. When you get a good boy scout, you're like going
out in the woods and then, you know, you go pee and like, you go fishing. Which is not, I really
have to pace. It's not talking about this. It's not like peeing off of things. I thought it's like,
yeah, you pee on things, but like peeing off of things. I thought it's like, yeah, you pee on things,
but like peeing off of something, like a building
or a big rock like Boy Scouts, like over the river.
So that's when it's, right?
I don't know.
You're a free.
You're a free.
I'm jumping off this bandwagon.
No, it's really, it's about washing your hands
and things that people pee in.
That's what it's about.
So Aaron, you like space stuff, right? Yeah, like space. So I think it's an anniversary of Spudnic 2.
It was one of the missiles that Russia put in a space.
Satellites are called at that point.
Yeah, Spudnic literally is satellite and... He was on a missile.
They just threw it up there.
Right.
So, go on.
They put a dog in there.
And it's like, when I heard about that, I was like, okay, I mean, I guess a puppy was born
and he kind of put the dog subconsciously new his whole life.
This was, you know, he's training and all this stuff.
And, you know, the ultimate's pay the ultimate sacrifice., you know, the Ultimates pay the Ultimates sacrifice.
But apparently, they just picked up a dog off the street, which I thought was
even worse because there's this poor dog that's just like, you know, going around
trying to get food wherever he can.
And then all these people come up to him and like, hey, come with us.
Come to a better life and they're pampering him and they're feeding him.
And they shoot him into space into space. Did he die?
Did he die?
Yeah.
You know the name of that dog?
Oh man.
Kazmir.
No.
Lika.
That's right.
Okay, here.
I said dog.
Let's be fair.
We're the first animal ever to orbit the earth.
It's 59.
What would be the guy that was like raise their dogs like my dogs?
I'm gonna send them off to blow they're gonna grab a random dog
They're not a dog and you know the you know the taking from a puppy and you start training him
You know, so this is the life. He's always known you don't take some you know
It's dog and just like hey, here's this wonderful life and he's like I'm so happy
I'm so glad that I met these people and my life so much better. Hey, why is he getting really hot and this really small?
Who?
Brand you're talking about a dog that was living on the streets that would have just like died in the streets probably but now we're talking about
I know it's name. We know its name. How many dogs? It's a hero that dog. They're a Milo. The only reason I remember the name
They're a Milo. The only reason I remember the name Leica is because there's a game development company,
many core studios who's exhibited RTX a couple of years, and they had a game revolving around that dog.
It's called Leica Believes the Sun at Night.
And it came out, it's like, you know, what if Leica did die and went on to have these fantastic
adventures in space? Yeah, it's actually, it's an indie game you can you can find it on
Steam. What when you buy your dog Gus do you think about when it's gonna die? God yeah I do. It's
really depressing. You know what I mean like I think about it at least once a week it's like I've
got my dog and I'm like you're awesome you know you're you like I like hanging out with you. You sit here, dipengue, we work, we work well.
This is good.
We've got a few more years.
It's really sad.
That's the thing.
It's like, but that's like, you have a baby.
You're like, well, I'm gonna die before you, baby.
So you don't have to worry about that.
But with a dog, you're like, well,
I know I'm an outlive, you're more likely.
Unless you buy a dog when you're like, well, I know I'm gonna outlive you more likely. Unless you buy a dog when you're like,
oh,
she's getting the dog stuffed.
You just get it stuffed.
Are you put like a bottle opener in it?
So it's always like useful.
And you're like, you're a monster.
No, no, I had the, you wanna hear a bad dog story?
Yes.
All right.
He, he, he, he, he, so it's forcing me. All right, You've got to be forcing me.
All right, so I was four.
And we had this dog named Binky.
Did you kill it, Chris?
No, no.
I had this dog named Binky.
It was the family dog.
It was the only dog I knew.
I was four.
It was a family dog.
My dad's out of town on a business trip.
I wake up one morning, my mom was crying,
everyone's crying, the dog died.
I was like, you know, it was just like a cry fest
because my sister was six, my brother was like an infant,
and everyone was just crying because the dog was dead on the porch.
My mom didn't know what to do.
She got kind of, she got a little hysterical, I think.
So she had, she was like, she, she, this is weird.
So she laid a blanket out next to the dog.
And then she got me and my sister to flip the dog
onto the blanket.
And then we drug the dog
doing my sister while we're bawling
because this is our family dog.
We drug the dog to the garage where we had a freezer.
And then we lifted the dog and put it in the freezer until my dad got home a week later.
I was in the middle of the week.
You went, yes, exact.
I went and showed my friend.
I was like, listen, I got to show you my dog just passed.
I was like, there's one of those things where it's like have you ever seen a dead body?
Yeah, it's like you like some ice cream you want to see a dead dog
I
Got one and it was like one of those things where we lifted it and we we'd see it and it'd be like looking at
You put it in without wrapping it Chris we it was in the head the blanket
But you think you think Chris and Dad was like, mother fucker.
I knew that dog was gonna die.
I just remember my, I just remember my,
I put it in the fucking freezer.
I just remember my dad getting back.
He was like, why didn't you bury it?
And I was just a kid.
I was like, why is mom and dad fighting?
Popsicle dog.
It was today and it was so,
I just, I can't,
the thing is, that was the first time I've ever been around an animal that died.
I thought that's what you did.
I just assumed that was normal.
Did you like put just like, put a big stick like in pain?
No, no, I just thought that was like a dog dies.
It's like, you put it in the freezer.
I hope I never die around you.
Really?
I thought it was normal.
I didn't, and not until like years later, when we were telling that story,
and when people were like, what?
I was like, yeah, we put it in the freezer.
And then our dad got, he got back from business,
and then we took it out and we buried it.
And like, what?
I don't know, I thought it was normal.
That's a little weird.
It was weird though.
At least he reprised it now.
Yeah.
That's what I think about why I don't have a dog. I don't's weird now. At least you realize it now. Yeah. That's what I think about why?
That's why I don't have a dog.
I like my dog.
You nearly took a drink and then you nearly started talking.
I don't want to.
That's why I don't have a dog.
That's one of the reasons why you don't have a dog, I think.
Yeah.
It's hard.
It's like, I mean, definitely it sucks to think about that.
But dogs are great up until then.
Yeah. Up until they have to freeze that. Yeah, until you're free.
Up until you have to freeze it.
Well, then they last forever.
We're at an awkward point with our family dog.
He's about to turn 14.
And so I've had him for basically half my life.
And he's in great health.
But it's like you just don't know.
And it's tough because they could live to be three, you know, three more years.
And just like, I don't know.
So you just like enjoy it, but I love my dog.
I feel like we're, I don't want to end on a sad note.
Well, no one's dog has died except for Chris's, but it's okay because he's preserved.
Yeah.
What if you took the dog out to bury it and it defrosted and it was fine?
He's alive. Yeah. It's a miracle. It's a Christmas miracle. You took the dog out to bury it and it defrosted and it was fine
He's alive Miracle, that's a Christmas miracle
Or worse he tried to revive it
There's like a lightning storm outside and you like put it out there with all these shovels around it
Oh, what's this one? Are you looking for these bottle openers there that that's what I'm talking about
Isn't that great wait
What are the squirrels? Yeah, those are squirrels with bottles in them. Is that what that is? No, I don't know
Yeah, oh I just want to I just want to say binky was a great dog
Yeah, I just like this you put it in with the fucking corn and the broccoli and the freezer. Yeah
It was weird. I'm not I'm gonna like because we had food and stuff in there too.
It's weird.
Like I wonder that story like the dogs?
No, just a story like that makes me wonder or it makes me realize that parents have no idea
what the fuck they're doing. It's like I think about it's like when my dad was my age, I was 16.
I could not imagine having a 16 year old kid.
I mean, like, yeah, I know everything in the world.
I'm gonna tell you what's going on.
That's a thing you should,
you should absolutely adopt a 16 year old right?
Yeah, I would pay to see that.
I'm about your hard high school stories
and whatever else.
Yeah, he was no help with any of that stuff.
It's like, dad, should I use this?
Whole clipper from my nail.
What kind of rave spray should I have?
Yeah, you're gonna cut up your card real nice son.
I'm gonna gouge an eye out with that.
You know, we'll put it in the freezer with the dogs.
You're not afraid that girl who brought that gun to school
is listening to this podcast right now.
No, God no, I told anyone I went to school
with is too stupid to use a computer
Actually takes your laughing but you're out. It's absolutely true. Oh fucking it
That did not go to a good school. No, no, there's a couple of people that were all right that that actually understand stuff that I see
Doing stuff on the internet. What do you think the worst thing you'd be, what worst aspect of parenting that you would have?
Like, well, I wouldn't have any empathy, I don't think.
Suck it up.
Yeah, the kid would be complaining about something.
We'd be like, I don't really don't care.
You know, this is that really doesn't concern me.
That's why I don't have a kid.
I feel like I could not do a good job at that. I'm too selfish of a person.
You're just like I'm playing you balls that the bet is gonna end in a couple of days.
Just deal with it and then I'll talk to you when some done your kids just over the frozen dogs
What about you?
I figured out Brandon would not be a good father. I would treat my daughter like royalty, but the boy, the boy gets the boy.
Yeah.
Do better.
Shut up.
Stop.
I'm already practicing.
I don't want to have a, I don't want to have, I guess I'm going to have to get, I don't
know.
But like having a son seems so awkward, because I remember how awkward it was to be like
ages 11 to now, and like having a kid, like a boy in the same house just seems super weird.
So everything's covered in...
Oh yeah.
Everything's covered in everything.
Everything's got a thick film of something on it.
It's all stiff and...
Yeah.
And it's just like gross watching watching TV at night
Excuse me. I need to go to the view back go away 15 minutes. I know I know I know like 30 minutes later
Excuse me. I gotta go back up. He's not shit this much. I know what he is doing
It's like at that point you have to like you would have to wear a bell around yourself to announce your presence, everyone could go in the house.
That would be the thing, like,
you couldn't walk through close doors anymore.
Like, it's just, because you'd be walking in on,
like, development, essentially, right?
Tell me, development, that's a very polite way
to put it there, and-
He's developing, he's developing himself.
He's over developing real hard in the bedroom, right?
They've got the magazines for developing. All right, well, it's about time in the bedroom right. We got some magazines for developing.
All right, well, it's about time to end the podcast.
So thanks for coming out, sitting with us Aaron.
Thanks for having me.
We learned a lot about dog preservation.
Yeah.
Well, I guess a little preemptive there,
but thanks.
