Hello everyone. Hey!
Hey!
All the nation.
It is a live shoot-teeth podcast.
Barrow, are you?
You're all lit up.
Yeah, I, these, these sparkle for a couple seconds, so I want to shoot right before you turn.
Okay, so you weren't, I was going to say, I'm not crazy, right?
You weren't lit up just a second ago.
Barrow, yeah.
Oh, I'm always lit up, Gus.
Okay. Rainier antlers with lights a second. Barbara, yeah. Oh, I'm always lit up, Gus.
Rained-deer antlers with lights on them.
Wait, it stopped, I already said.
It just makes sense.
There we go.
And in addition to Gus and Barbara, we got,
I'm Jack.
I'm Bernie.
And Gus.
You look like Randy Quaid wearing that hat.
Anyway, I'm wearing that hat in Christmas.
I sat down on this thing, but next to me
said I put it on over my hat.
I said you look like, I have a,
I have a look, Nadian.
What do you call this, Barbara?
This hat I'm wearing for people who can't see us.
A hat.
Yeah, it's just like a hat with ear flaps.
Yeah, it's like a typical winter hat.
Yeah.
It's the hat from Christmas vacation.
It's like a winter hat upgraded.
Except yours is red and white for Christmas.
I was like the bully from a Christmas store.
Yeah.
Love that move.
Peter Willisley went on to become friends with John Fervor.
Did Elf?
He became a producer. Yeah, I saw him at the
Premiere for made at the
All my favorite John Fever movies. I saw that the drop top the original location downtown
And what's that screening as well does before we knew each other and I were at the same screen that never
Be like I was there I was also at that screening really I definitely was at that screening
Yeah, you and I would have you and I sat together. I think I was an after party screening. Really? I definitely was at that screening. Well, you and I would have... You and I sat together, I think.
Oh, we did, okay.
There was an after party at the bar right next door
and I was under 21, so I couldn't get into it.
It was crazy, that was a close time.
My God, it was like 10 years ago.
Oh, more than 10 years ago, yeah.
It was in a long time ago, yeah.
That's wild.
Was that before ever, versus blue?
Ah!
Yeah, who's made, or maybe just right around the start of it?
If you were not old enough to drink,
you were 20, how old are you today, if I may ask?
I'm 32 right now. So, yeah, right around that time? They would have been 12 years, to drink you were 20. How old are you today if I'm at 32 right now?
So yeah right around that time. They would have been 12 years. They've been close. They've been super close. Wow. Yeah, that's wild
Why are we hanging out before red?
I'm gonna say why were we hanging out?
I'm gonna be the next step in my thought process. You were friends before you worked together. Yeah, but we were let's be honest
And then there's friends and then we're back to it now because now there's no way I can get gust to go see a movie
Yeah, very texturing the other day with a very kind invite to hang out. No, but yeah
You out for a party foul you committed sir
What I don't know pointing at you what I do. All of the people on this podcast,
we're all invited to the same holiday party this past week.
Uh oh.
And we all went to it and the invitation very clearly stated
the party was from six to nine.
Which is a really awesome time.
Which is a time time.
Yeah, well, like eight, 15.
I'm like, oh, okay, well, let's get in the party.
I'm gonna leave.
And then as I'm leaving, Bernie's texting me like,
hey, are you going to that party? Like, yeah, I'm just leaving. He's like, okay, cool. getting close to the party. I'm gonna leave and then as I'm leaving Bernie's texting me like hey Are you going to that party like yeah, I'm just leaving. He's like okay cool. You showed up after nine
You texted me at nine fifteen saying how's the party?
The place was filled when we got there. Yeah, the party still went later than that
But I think they said 69 so people don't show up at nine. Oh
I
Gracious host about it and he I told them, I was down in Santa Marcus
for another holiday event.
You were speaking for some of your...
Yeah, you know where I was?
Where were you?
I was at the Telenetwork, a national managers meeting.
National manager, this is the call center
where you used to work at.
Call center where you work at.
How many people think worked at that company
when you first started on there?
When I started a shift, I would typically work mornings,
like 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. or something,
a shift was three people.
Yeah, they now have 1,300 people at the company.
Jesus.
I mean, they had managers,
just their managers there filled like a hotel ballroom.
Yeah, I think in a conference center.
A shift was three people and totaled
there might have been 25 employees.
Oh my God.
Oh yeah, yep.
Maybe somewhere around there.
I should've seen that's what I said,
but they said they never had, they started at at about 35. No got below that. No, I seemed to him call like I
Thought when I started it was like 17. Yeah, it was the three of us on the phones
The cis admin the manager would be manager for four people
And then they would like rotate every eight hours. You're my manager, and I'm like your only employee
I'm sorry
I'm one of your two employees starting to point to point at people. One more. He's over there somewhere. But I don't know
what Gus quit. That's the job where Gus came in and told me he had a hemorrhoid and I couldn't
stand to hear anymore about it. I didn't want to know anything else about it. And that was the job
where you quit. And when I talked to you, I said, why are you quitting? And Gus said, I feel like
I shouldn't work in one place for too long.
And I said, what does that mean?
He goes, well, my three year plan is to quit a job a year for the next three years.
Was that, did I get that right?
It was like every two years, I think was my, was my hope.
He just thought like that's a career path that he had to quit his job every two years.
Yeah, I wanted to, to keep learning new things and,
well, you know,
you do like system and stuff.
Yeah.
So that, that, that kind of makes sense, actually, to bounce around a few different tech companies and stuff. Yeah. I doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it,
you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you've been doing it, you worked in the building that everyone got fired from. He was one of the guys that got fired. Really? We had your Fort Gus, like the, the, the,
yeah, his own vending machine and everything.
Yeah, so jealous.
He was here.
He was working.
He was doing a fix for something that we were filming.
Oh, he was here in the studio.
Yeah, he was here.
We had hired him on contract.
I guess after that job, he also quit the tech industry
and learned a whole new trade.
And I didn't like Greg, is it?
I know one of the, the special effects guys,
and I worked with him for a while.
Oh, no, I was just following you. Watching your every move. Yeah, like at first I didn't recognize him. He's like,
oh, hey, I worked with you. You know, he's like, oh my God. Yeah, what the hell? It was funny.
The the craziest way to run into someone. Did visual effects is doing for laser team?
What were we we were filming something here the other day. I remember what it was. It wasn't laser
team. Oh, it was a short. Yeah, it was a short yeah it was a short yeah that blame was writing the holiday
short okay oh holiday short we have a holiday short yeah yeah thanks I
mean so much yeah it wasn't right in your in my year holiday short holiday
short
we got to like talking to himself everyone's looking around
and it's talking to you talking to you nobody's saying anything your piece I
know we know it takes it takes a while from you remember that every single I don't think that's talking to someone who's talking to you. Nobody's saying anything. I think earpiece. I know.
It takes a while from you to remember that every single episode of this podcast, but eventually
I do.
It is over getting my facts wrong.
But I ran into a lot of people like, there's a guy that we worked with George, who works
there.
He is now has 22 years of service.
That night, I didn't keep count, but they had something like eight people that they were honoring that had longer than 12 years of service. That night I didn't keep count, but they had something like eight people that
they were honoring that had longer than 12 years of service. Wow. Like some people have
like 17. How many years do you have? I got up to, I want to say I got up to 12 total.
They gave me a sabbatical at the end of my career. Like gave me a six month sabbatical
so I can like figure stuff out. Like they want to go. One way I want to go the other.
Because my career was going in two different directions
And they were they were always just fantastic. I mean, I can't say enough good things about the opportunities that I had in that company
This job right here's the longest job I've ever had I just crossed five years in the cembers
So like congratulations never never go long. It's a huge anniversary. It's pretty significant
It has actually young. Yeah, but I feel like I learned a lot and I met a lot of people that are kept in contact with at that old call center job
I felt like it was it was a great
Starting job. It was a great like for me like a starting point for a career in tech
That's what I think about Ruth. Where's your teeth in me? Great starting
Yeah, but then a two years barbed- yeah, but I guess with the growth that they've had
It's a lot easier now for people to stay there a lot more long term. Yeah, absolutely and Barb's been here now three years
She's just three anniversary. Mm-hmm. You and I've been here 11 and a half years whatever long time
It's my long just take your hands the longest job I've ever had I think the previous longest job I had was like
Maybe two and a half or three years. Wait is this year is this April 12 years or 13 years?
We 12 years this April
Okay, so it's gone weird because we started like we're in our 13th year. We're not 12 year
You know, and so after we cross over April first we'll be started like we're in our 13th year. We're not 12 year You know, and so after we cross over April 4th
We'll be talking that we're in our 13th year, but we're dead
12 and third day
I think it's cuz like red versus blue is going and going into season 13 right now
Yeah, we're more than a season a year at this point. Yeah, when you think about it that way
It's you think it's 13 years, but it's just 12. Yep, but he's the other the other other thing that just came up was I ran to our friend.
I'm not gonna name any names here because we're gonna talk about disease. But he was the guy who
had the hemorrhagic fever when he was a kid. And this came up because we talked about a boa and
how awful was I said I got to ask now that you're here what was it that you had did you have a boa
and he said no I had dang a fever. And apparently I was like, oh, that's not terrible.
He goes, yeah, so many of you just get it
and you get kind of tired.
And sometimes you get a hemorrhagic fever.
And as a kid, I got the hemorrhagic fever.
Like, you'll want a two ways when you get out.
I was like, yikes.
And he goes, but now I'm immune to it, so it doesn't matter.
So what is hemorrhagic?
Hemorrhagic.
I mean, it's like a hemorrhagic.
Like in your brain?
Like a boa, you bleed out of every orifice
and you just, you basically internally bleed out and that kind of thing
Fun and that's what this guy had this guy before we even knew what a bowl was. I'm sure it existed, but
He had had he told a story about he's a kid. He got a hemorrhagic fever and
He basically said the stomach would fill up the blood and they just drained it out a couple hours later
Sounded like a horrible experience to go with the room. Not a fun thing for a kid.
I also find out there's four strains
of dengue fever according to him.
And you can just get one of them like good or bad,
but that if you get one of them,
it makes it more like we look at the bad version
of the other three.
Oh God, it's like the worst immune to the one.
He's a little one.
Oh, I guess he got a bad one.
He's immune to the good version of all the other ones basically
So he can get the like the horrible symptoms of everything. Oh awful. Yeah, but he thinks he got like three of them
Oh, that's what they told him. He was not living in this country with this happened. What's that?
How do you get it? I believe Denge fever comes from mosquitoes and it just made its way
Into the Western hemisphere for the first time? Yeah.
Yeah, it showed up in the Caribbean.
Yeah, I know someone, it actually has been a while,
because I know someone from when I lived in Puerto Rico
who had contracted it.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Yeah, the sleeping kind, not the hemorrhagic kind.
Maybe there's something else.
I was reading out something where they were,
it's weird coincidence, totally unrelated.
I was reading an article about something where
they were talking about disease making its way
to the Western hemisphere for the first time.
And it was associated with dengue fever,
but I guess it was like something else.
That's like, you know, I hate when you hear about like,
because I remember when I was a kid,
you first heard about what was at the time called the gay flu,
which then became AIDS, which then they realized was HIV.
But I remember with it like just like nobody knew what it was.
Like they were just talking about it like, there's this thing, people keep dying of pneumonia.
It's really bizarre. What's doing that? And then it's like within like two years, it's like,
oh yeah, this is a horrible disease that people are spreading to one another, you know?
Yeah, at first you have that initial reaction where no one knows necessarily how you get sick or
who's getting sick and why it's scary. And then they named it
AIDS and there was a diet supplement called AIDS, AYDS, that they had to take off the market because
they just like the brand name you can't you can't ever know like uh...
ISIS? Archer with ISIS. Yeah, well you just never know if that's gonna come up. How did they handle that?
I know they changed their name but how did they handle on the show or is that season aired yet?
Hey, I think it's just coming up season. Yeah. How did it archer handle ISIS?
Yeah, so yeah, yeah, okay, she says hasn't come back on yet, but there's gonna be one line that won't talk about it,
but they also said there was a date at which they said will no longer sell anymore
Isis merge what happened with Trump does just literally said that no, I believe it
There was also a mobile payment wallet system called ISIS. Oh, yeah
I remember that and I think they've had to rebrand. I don't know what they rebranded themselves to was they seem kind of thing
Are they even on the market? I see your pocket?
Isis is everywhere.
That's what ISIS is in the stories you frequent.
Okay, even at home for online shopping.
Help us read ISIS across America.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine.
They'll be fine. They'll be fine. They'll be fine. They'll be fine. They'll be fine. What could possibly get wrong with that Jack? Jesus, too soon.
Oh man.
When I was in, I'm gonna totally move away from that.
When I was in Australia, several people came up to me to express how upset they were.
That you always wore Sydney rooster's hats on the podcast.
Sorry.
So I got a collection of jerseys.
Oh look at you. You're in a single
Stingles. Jerseys. I got right now. I'm episode 301. My first one back. I had a Brisbane Broncos jersey and how many people hit you?
I also got the Mandley Seagulls, which apparently is a super hated team. I wore this also while I was down there and was like,
Oh, come on. We were talking before the podcast. I guess they're like the rich team. And so I'm like, oh, they're like the Yankees and
Barbers like there's a Toronto Maple Leafs. No wrong wrongs for. It's one'm like, oh, they're like the Yankees and Barbers like the Toronto Maple leaves. So I'm like, no wrong, wrong sport.
It's one of those, no, it's like one of those examples.
It's an example of a team.
I know, but I don't know if we know, I don't know hockey.
I know the stars and.
I say Toronto Maple is because to me,
that's a team where everybody hates them
except the fans of that team.
I got a like a matter where.
That's some company in Australia named Radial
apparently stole American Airlines logo.
What is it?
I only see it from this side.
It's triple a radio.
It's triple a radio.
Okay, yeah, right there.
That's a very good idea.
What you do, what you do is you get Jersey
and I go to the two A's.
You can talk to.
It's like a massive bicep.
We should.
Don't laugh that hard.
Jesus.
What you get jerseys that have all of our sponsors on them and just wear them. We sit here. I've never heard her laugh
Before wow
Manly Z is actually Ashley's team. That's what she follows
Apparently I just renamed themselves to soft card. No, and not Cosby
I was thinking they did what dude
Did you hear about the guy here in Texas who sold his truck and it ended up in Syria?
Really?
So, so, so, so, yeah.
Some plumbing company, some guy like he owns plumbing company, sold an old like F250 or whatever.
It went to an auction place and then it got sold like multiple times.
It ended up in a photo of some terrorist, like ISIS terrorists, in Syria shooting like you can and out the back of it.
It still has his company in it. It has the logo and the phone number on the
Dueling Ducks.
It's just like Mark 1 plumbing and it's got the phone number.
It's like I think it's like out of Conrower, Lufkin.
Yeah, it's here in Texas, but it's so easy.
Yes.
And they still use that number.
And there's a giant machine gun in the back of the truck now.
And you see these guys just firing you.
Yeah, and so he's getting like death threats and stuff because people are calling it
because they're thinking that he has
something to do with it that's like the ultimate bad luck Brian right oh
the disease that I was talking about was a painful mosquito-borne viral
disease reaches western hemisphere it's called chicken gun yeah chicken gun
yeah fever they need to rebrand that as well.
Call that one color.
Oh, it's related to dengue and the fact that it's the same kind of thing, but it's way,
way worse.
It doubles you over in pain.
The name chicken, gun, yeah, meaning roughly that which bends up, meaning that's the position
you take because you're in such pain, you bend over.
Oh, yeah.
So thanks to a couple people on Twitter who pointed that out to me.
How do you like that phone? QFA Jamie and
So he is mom 24 when I did get the butter. I'm gonna call it chicken gun. Yeah
Fending up. How do you like that phone Bernie? I finally held one for the first time and it seems it's too big
I don't like it so Ash got a right he's a jack talking about my iPhone 6 plus
I've complained about it a bunch but the sides of it's fine if I go to hold somebody else for them like how do you use this time?
I think I can use that with one hand. Yeah, let me show you a little trick that actually Gavin taught me okay, which is if you don't double double click
But if you double like tap like that
It brings the whole screen down so you can use the finger print up there so you can you can do it
It is less convenient, but Ash she got an iPhone 6 regular regular. I made a hand motion of nothing else.
iPhone 6 that showed up today. And I was bugging her all day to get it set up so I can like
compare the two of them for today, but she just was stubborn and wouldn't do it. She was
doing something else. She had my, she had the toughest job in the world, which is my Christmas
gift arrived today, apparently on a palette. And it like showed up and was put in the drive
for you. You're a gift for her, her gift for you.
Her gift for me. Okay. And then she had the boys
helping her like dismantle it and then wrap this
whatever this big thing is. And that is like, I can't take it.
I can't I can't live like that. I just have to be and try to find out
what it is. It's a new Tesla. I know. Yeah.
I don't think it comes up on. But pallets. I didn't
drive those up. Oh my God. Yeah, guess is showing me the
Yeah, the truck with the phone number mark one plumbing. I can't get it to display on the TV for some reason
We'll put it in the link dump. Yeah, they'll be in touch. You can probably just look it up though. Oh, I just pick up truck
Texas plumber good lord dead poor master
You think so that's a lesson. You got to scrub that stuff truck. Yeah, fucking take well
They apparently they said they would do that
Like the the people he sold it through said they would take care of it and it is never did so that's a
Loss
That's what they say lots of things
You can't even get all the way there measuring the bed of the truck like yeah our gun could fit here guys
What no nothing Christmas trees what is the chance?
That guy has not changed that phone number yet like you know you know, oh, I mean, he was, you can call that number still.
And I mean, at least as of last week, you could.
Yeah.
When we put that link, don't make sure you use the blur not.
Somebody else can look at it.
I mean, it's, I don't want it to come back.
Sure.
I make sense.
Hey, oh yeah, because I'll be the, well, anyway, people looking up and say the
are to call, rooster to you.
Don't call the master.
Yeah, it's not funny.
Don't be those guys.
Yeah, it's not funny. It's not fun or funny. They't do that. It's not funny. Don't be those guys. Yeah, it's not funny.
It's not fun or funny.
They'll do it anyway.
We're fucking about.
So, okay, have we, have, has,
We're doing it right now.
I know, when did the interview stuff happen?
Was that after last podcast?
They canceled the, the,
In the stages.
Yeah, the happened by last podcast
but it had not been canceled.
Did you guys not talk about it last week?
No, it's one of the things we wanted to talk about
but we didn't get to.
We should absolutely talk about that. Of course, it's like one of the things we wanted to talk about, but we didn't get to. We should absolutely talk about that.
Of course, it's like one of the biggest stories of this week.
One of the few screenings in America,
that are one of the few screens in America of the interview
happened here in Austin at Buttonomathon.
Right, so that's the 24 hour movie festival that
you guys are seeing.
I haven't seen it.
I was there for it, but the people I'd been at did see it.
Did you see it?
I didn't go because I was in laser team last day of shooting.
Oh, yeah, so I could not go to butnumathon this year.
We talked about the past.
Actually, butnumathon was after the rap party.
It was the day after the rap party, I think.
It was a Sunday?
Saturday?
Saturday.
So our rap party was on the Saturday.
Wasn't it?
Yeah.
So, okay, it was that was during that party.
Yeah.
I would have to leave laser team last day of shooting after shooting all night.
By the way, I'm still not back on a daytime schedule yet.
Still. It's like a jet lag with a tram. I was sleeping before I came to this podcast. So you're at your prime right now. What?
You're at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime.
I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime. I'm at your prime all night. By the way, I'm still not back on a daytime schedule yet.
I'm just still, it's like jet lag with the travel.
I was sleeping before I came to this podcast.
So you're at your prime right now.
What?
You're at your prime.
Are you at your prime like an hour after you wake up?
Yeah, yeah.
You walked into this building, I think four minutes or four,
you went live.
I got a text from Bernie, like 12 minutes or four,
our goal lifetime said, I'll be right there.
Also, you are here today at one o'clock.
Yeah, I know.
And then I went home.
So that's okay.
And then, okay, got back in the office.
Is that how you slept?
So I'm like this.
See?
Look at the idea of you just walk through your door, like, leaning as a wall, falling
fall asleep, wake up again.
Well, the, the, the thing I've been thinking about, I've been thinking about this,
the interview, the, the interview, the, you know, like the last giant export that the
United States has is entertainment
and yes i agree that and it's like it's definitely a tree
yeah it's it's like a strike at
the last
big industry that we still have
and uh...
i i i don't know
i don't know the ins and outs of the case but yeah i'm
skeptical that north korea
could pull off an attack like this oh i don't it sense to me. Yeah, well, I don't know
I think Kim Jong-un would be flattered. That dude's way better looking than
Yeah, it was Asian Jim from the office. I don't be caught that but um, yeah, it's weird
So like some there was some defector I read an article saying that there was like 1200
Cyber warriors working for North Korea that all they do in North Korea in North Korea right all they do is hack
Okay, but where do they get training and I don't understand that all they do in North Korea. In North Korea. Right. All they do is hack.
Okay.
But where do they get training?
I don't understand that.
It's like.
From North Korean.
But do they bring these people in?
They kidnapped them.
They kidnapped directors before to make them make movies in Kim Jong-il.
Yeah.
His father.
They had a director from, was it South Korea?
I think the director was from Japan.
Yeah.
Actors were from South Korea. They kidnapped them. Took them to North Korea. He think the director was from Japan. And the actors were from South Korea.
They kidnapped them, took them to North Korea.
He had to make films for them.
And Kim Jong-il basically strongly suggested they get remarried
because he really liked when they were married.
So they ended up getting married.
Wow.
And it's just, and he was there like seven years.
It was a long time.
Making movies for the guy.
But did you hear right now, North Korean internet is down.
Like they got DDoS, so their internet's completely down.
And Anonymous also says they're going to release
the interview on Christmas Day.
Well, they're not Sony does, Anonymous will release it to the West.
Well, Sony said they're now going to release it for free via Crackle.
No, no, no, that was a rumor.
Was it?
Yeah.
I thought it was the head of Sony said that.
No, no, that was a rumor.
Okay.
But the last I heard, that was a rumor, which had been denied been denied see the thing that bugs me is Sony came out and said like
so for the first of all you regal pulled out centimark pulled out all these
all these different changes major change said okay we're not gonna screen it
and that's what got so those are movie distribution companies here those are
movie theater companies yeah so those are movie theaters and so all these
theaters came out said we're not gonna screen it because like the the North
Korea threatened to attack theaters or whatever and so like we're not gonna do screen it because the North Korea threatened to attack theaters or whatever.
So we're not going to do it.
There are some independent cinemas, like the Alamo Draft House, that we will absolutely
keep screening it.
We have no issue with that.
Then Sony's like, we can't find anyone to screen it, so we're not going to show it.
The Draft House is like, hey, we'll totally screen it.
And they're like, nope, we can't find anybody.
Everyone's to get out.
If they were the only theater that had it,
they would just show it in every screen.
Yeah, absolutely.
Constantly 24 hours a day.
Yeah, they run it more than watch it.
Yeah.
And then it'd become like a destination,
like a whole, like this would be a media thing,
and then like, if you're, I don't know, but.
Can you analyze the threat, first of all?
First of all, does North Korea ever engage
in actual terrorism, or what?
I blow stuff up.
They blew up an airliner in the mid-90s.
Let me fact check that.
Wasn't there some sort of threat against Austin?
Did they shoot down an airliner?
Or they had to like, a terrorist bloat?
There was a map behind Kim Jong-un,
like showing rocket locations.
It was like, it was like, it was like,
L.A., Hawaii, New York, and Austin for some reason.
Yeah.
So, Alamo was really, really, really,
he had a lot of foreshadowing out from the Mar. It was very strange. Yeah, so I'm a lot of
four-shed. I'm not from our host very strange. I'm like a
toughest thing in the world would be to
recruit North Korea sympathetic terrorists that are
willing to die for North Korea. It seems like the
moment people step foot out of North Korea is like, oh
thank god I'm out. I any reason I got out I'm gone. I'm not
sympathetic that cause any more. I'm in a minute. He's about like how oh thank God, I'm out. Any reason I get out, I'm gone. I'm not sympathetic to that cause.
That's easy.
What the minute he's about, like how brainwash the North Korean people are.
To the point where they think that, you know, Kim Jong-un or Kim Jong-un, can read their
minds.
And if they think bad thoughts about dear leader, then they're going to get in trouble.
Yeah.
That's, I mean, that's a next level brainwashing thing.
I believe you, I've seen just about every documentary possible.
Did you see the high doctor one? Yep. That brainwashing thing that he's talking about,
that was most evidence in that eye doctor one. It's on Netflix. I don't know the name of it.
A guy goes to North Korea to perform a simple cataract surgery of people. And it's just like all
the trials and tribulations he deals with and how it's just. I think he wants to do something crazy,
like a thousand, like perform a thousand surgeries
over a weekend or something like that.
Yeah.
But yeah, they blew up an airliner, a Korean air flight in 1987.
They really did.
They really did.
And they took, they claimed responsibility and everything.
Yep.
It was like Kim Jong-il.
It was a Kim Il-su.
It would have been Kim Il-su on at that time.
How did that not cause a war?
It's so tenuous. I mean, even a couple of years ago, North Korea sank
that South Korean cruiser off the coast.
Yeah, but your sailors died.
That didn't start a war.
If I had a Missile Japan, towards Japan.
If I had a Missile over Japan, over Japan.
Yeah, well, it's one of those things too,
where it's like if you start a war,
okay, say you know,
everyone's like always to go in there
and you'll take out like Sin and Sea of Team Six and wipe out their leadership.
Then what do you do?
And then you've got this country full of people that now,
do we have to install it?
Like do we install a democracy?
But after all, the American invasion.
That's the other problem is artillery,
there's so many artillery positions along the DMZ
and Seoul is so close to the DMZ.
They would fucking shoot the shit out of Seoul.
It would be crazy.
Yeah, I mean, I think I show a force,
you use the force as impossible in that kind of situation.
Yeah, I don't know.
It's a whole, it's a mess,
but the soul thing with like the movie,
I don't know, it just bugs me that,
it's kind of like a key said, she said,
type D over, it's like, oh, we're doing this because of this
and it's like, but they're saying this and I don't know
well you need to do you sure North Korea wants to help the US find the hackers here
do you join investigation like it's like oh you're looking for the real killer yeah exactly
oh North Korea is gonna go golfing but oh we'll help you out with this
well help you man I saw an article saying Montreal was still gonna show it
because apparently they already have the real there really they're gonna they said
fuck it we're gonna show it it's gonna's do it. Oh, I just want to go.
Somebody trip. Do you at this point?
Interview comes out in theaters next Friday. They say, you know what we're gonna do
this? Where to put this movie on? I think this coming Friday. We're doing it.
Here it comes. I wouldn't go see it. Would you go see it? Yeah. They've been beaten
to death with hype and drama over this movie. I won't see the movie before this whole
thing happens.
You would have.
Because it looked funny, yeah.
It did look funny.
It did look really funny.
I'll go see it.
So I wouldn't see it because of all this happening.
I would see it because it's a movie that comes out during Christmas time.
I'm doing nothing during Christmas.
Let's go see a movie.
I think that people will now go see the movie on principle.
I'm the opposite direction.
I'm like, I just, I can't take all this.
Yeah, I'm done.
You see James Franco at the end of the Colbert rapport?
Like, the finale of the Colbert rapport,
they had a musical number where they brought out
just like, you know, probably a hundred special guests.
Yeah.
By the way, none of those people could sing that song.
Not one of them.
I mean, they can be human good.
They cut to people and they were just like,
it looked like four-year-olds in church.
Like, trying to download the song.
It was a nice moment, but it was a few years in there.
See, Elijah Wood, he was hidden in the background.
But, yeah, James Franco is in there.
And it's like the first time I'd seen him after all this mess,
and he just looked like beat.
He's in a, like, he looked deflated.
A movie coming up with, like, a guy from SuperBad,
I forget his name.
He's with Joni Hill.
Joni Hill.
Yeah, a true story.
A call, true story, yeah, which is, like,
looks like a drama, not a comedy.
Yeah, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a,
it's a, it's super creepy too.
Yeah.
Like, Joni Hill plays a, a disgr discretion journalist who then gets in with like a killer
or yeah the killer claims to be that journalist and then these are cameras we
have the new cameras today we're just testing them what does that mean we are
machines one so what you can't be using that camera that camera is a real camera
too the normal one yeah new cameras coming huh spoiler alert yeah I know you

They actually sent me a few nice mattress.
Oh, nice.
Really?
When you're here on set,
Alan was really upset about it.
Yeah, we should put it right here.
We should replace the coffee table with it in his life.
Alan was like, yeah, let's set it up in the studio
for crunch time.
People can share it.
No, so you took it for yourself? Yeah. You see, do you hear who read the ad and let me tell you it's a wonderful mattress
Yeah, you know I'm actually well, I'm like yeah, I want to
Is it good? I set it up in my guest bedroom. Yeah, and I have a problem now that I only want to sleep in my guest bedroom
To lie what's the story what's the difference? Well, I'm in my
Master bedroom. I have a king size bed, but they I got a queen size mattress for the get for the guest. So I'm going to end up buying my
own king. You know what? I have to kick you out. Do you want to talk about it? We've
had a lot of few days. Now he always wants to sleep in the guest. Yes. Now I don't
guess in your own house. I don't know if I've ever sat on this couch before. This is
the most awkward couch ever. Like I'm like, there's no like comfortable way to sit on that couch couch for a while the last couple podcasts have either been in your chair or Bernie's chair
I saw sitting in the middle Barbara really I
Pobden Jack and I not paying attention when you're doing your ad read I was looking up a
North Korea at nighttime God damn it barbed-dunk them in
You're not paying attention either
Don't come in. I'm popping that one time. You're not paying attention either I know
I didn't include myself in the picture social media profile over there
I appreciate that people look stuff up when I'm reading it. You got a little bit of downtime
You got like a minute. It's like a quick break
I'm sure it was naked in the patch right now
So anyway this couch is awkward. You should buy a new couch. I know you just have to have better posture
See what six months dude at six months, dude.
Alright, man, that's fine.
It's cool.
Yeah, we're just reminiscing about the old podcast couch.
They say you spend a third of your life sleeping.
Your mattress is actually your most important purchase.
We sleep eight hours a day, yeah.
I actually way more than that if possible.
You're still thinking stupid.
I mean, it's like that I don't know how evolution didn't weed out sleep.
I don't get it. I still don't get it. My mean, it's like that, I don't know how evolution didn't weed out sleep. I don't get it.
I still don't get it.
My dad actually told me something really interesting
recently.
Very?
Yes, Slayered, Uncleman.
They apparently, the sleeping patterns,
like way back in the day,
I don't remember what time period,
you want text me at the time period, let me know.
Where they would go to bed,
right when it became dark,
and then they would sleep for about four hours,
wake up, and do stuff, go visit friends, eat, whatever, and then go to sleep for another
four hours until the morning.
Yeah, that would work in some places.
But that's how that's the way it was.
All forever.
This is the information brought to you by Barbara's Faulty Memory.
I can't tell you where and I can't tell you when, but I can tell you it might be, it
may be happening. It may be. It may be. I can't tell you where and I can't tell you when but I can tell you it might be maybe happen.
Please text me.
So I think maybe that word can cater during the summer because you don't you get that
much continuous darkness.
You would go to bed at I guess 430 and then 430 and 430 in the summer.
Yeah.
In the winter.
But summer.
Oh, I'm talking when you have longer light periods.
I guess you would just sleep into the light time.
That's actually the part that's light time.
That's the part of Texas' geography
that I've grown used to.
People say about weather, the change in light
would drive me crazy.
Even just going a little bit north to LA, that affects me.
And to go to Seattle, I couldn't hack it.
I couldn't hack it getting dark at like four in the afternoon.
I've got family up in Alaska.
And there's a whole period of a few weeks where it never gets
completely dark.
And that would drive me crazy.
There's a horror movie about vampires that like,
when 30 days of dark kicks in.
I think it's called 30 days of night, right?
Yeah, 30 days of night is based on a comic, I think.
Oh, is it?
Yeah, such a great premise.
I'm totally if I was a vampire, I'd go live up there.
I was gonna say if I was a dinosaur
I see you
What did you ever see the movie in Somnia?
Is that the based on the Stephen King book no, it's it was originally a I want to say a Swedish movie
I
I think
Stillins cars guard. I want to sayin Williams to run this like like associative past
They did like an American remake. Yeah, they did an American. We got him pretty sure is robin Williams
I'm not sure I was gonna say it was robin Williams to but then I thought I was making a single 24-hour photo
Not yeah, that's the same thing
I'm not right around the same time. Okay, yeah, because robin Williams will run that streak of kind of weird dark movies
But it's a like a creepy murder mystery about that takes place in that part of the world
where it never really gets dark.
Or it's daylight for a really long period of time.
Do LA homicide detectives are dispatched to a northern town where the sun doesn't
set to investigate the methodical murder of a local teen?
Would you rather live in 30 days of sunlight or 30 days of darkness?
I like the night better, I think.
But I think after a while, I would just like feel like
I was missing something.
Yeah, I would feel just like depressed
because it's just dark all the time.
Kind of like when we're in the studio for hours now.
If you ask me in the summer, I would definitely say
30 days a night around here.
I guess, yeah.
The sun.
The fog in the sun.
What is it, every day?
We're down the winter.
Am I still saying night?
Am I still saying night all the time?
I said then I could sleep for four hours and get up and do activities and sleep for four more hours. I just say night all the time. I said that I could sleep for four hours
and get up and do activities in the sleep for four more hours.
I just sent for you to the link to that Wikipedia article
about segmented sleep.
Segmented sleep.
Well, it wasn't like a divinci would sleep
like three hours at a time.
That the way you work.
Yeah, I've heard people do that.
You can know the beer barber.
Somebody was divinci the other one.
Please.
Michael, please.
One or two.
I work with guys.
Only two of them.
I'm going to bitch for a minute. What?
What?
Well, this is a first.
I saw a phone commercial with the stupidest feature ever.
What?
Those are for a while.
What do you mean a dumb phone feature, Jack?
Don't call it a feature.
You can talk to people.
I want to say what it is.
I'd be like a touch screen on the back.
I've been watching this commercial for a while before I finally realized what it was.
Let me think about this.
Barb think about this.
What's a bad phone feature that Gus would hate?
That Gus would hate.
Think about it.
There's a lot of stuff I hate.
Like dumb as in useless or
I know.
He even like takes the speech or something like that.
To me, once we got a phone that has a camera on the front of it,
like we dedicated the camera to the front of the fucking thing.
It's like we can take a photo of ourselves.
That's the end of civilization.
We all like, like, it's a totally normal thing.
Wait till you hear my feature then.
What is it now?
It shoots video through both cameras at the same time.
So you can film something and be filming your reaction simultaneously.
Fucking hell.
Wow.
Watches a video and thinks,
I wonder what the camera person's face looked like when they were filming this.
That's it.
So it's like,
how much do you play ever?
Yeah, it's a car.
Oh, movies would let's play basically.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
It's like you can comment and react to what you're filming as you film it.
So how would it...
Would it just take two separate videos?
Guess it's upset by that.
There you go.
I think it was an HTC phone.
Would it take two separate videos?
I don't know. I did not research any further
I saw that and they got really angry and I immediately have to start drinking I was gonna drink anyway
I'll be honest with you. I think I could see that being useful for is you know when for example
Achima hunters filming themselves play something like if the person's filming and playing something with the other person physically
Like ping pong or something and like getting both sides of it without having like flip the camera each time
I guess so just don't do the head just like being long or someone else to
Felt like we should a little go pros now
We're just gonna get the head straps and this to everyone's gonna start wearing them around
Then we're gonna have a let's place of just going to work here's a everyday life
Here's the problem with that is that the GoPro is that when you guys interact with each other, you're all gonna have the GoPro's on your head.
Yeah.
So it's gonna look so dumb.
Or it's just gonna like,
it's just seeing somebody with the GoPro.
You have this vision, it's gonna be,
oh, so you'll see what our office like,
except everyone will have a camera shot.
They're gonna get that additional aesthetic.
I've seen like the motorcycle guys who wear helmets
that have like four GoPro's,
there's like one facing on the side,
one on the top and the one on backwards.
They have like, just shit ton of cameras all over over yeah, we should do that. I like to
When the Moto GP guys like put cameras on the side they go so fucking low on those turns
It's like it's frightening that red and white striped if I remember on a track with that red and white stripe on the side
I know I'm gonna die
Jump off the motor like die right away
Yeah, I don't have I bear is this the camera. Oh my god
I have the camera it's one video that split. Oh, it's split on the middle
Yeah, so I just wanted you and the right sides of the other two. Oh not only other both vertical, which is even worse
Okay, oh my fucking bookmark this podcast because we don't know what this is called and we're making fun of it
Everyone's gonna be making these things Like myself in two years. Yeah, and they'll be like they were talking about split vids
Somebody Instagram is like fuck and they're like coding for that right now. Yeah, I guarantee
It's a recent valuation of Instagram. Oh my god
Another thing that made me mad.
30 is gone.
35 billion dollars.
Sell.
No, I sold.
There's so many Facebook for two billion.
Two billion.
What was it?
A billion.
I thought it was two.
It was so much money at the time that the founders were just laughing on the call when
they had an interview about it.
Do you remember that?
Yep.
And now it's worth 35 billion.
I would be happy. I would have to fucking get out
Crazy the just like a month ago YouTube was valued 40 billion and they were talking or was it yeah
I think it was YouTube at 40 and Twitter was at 35 and people were saying huh
Do you guys think that Twitter is actually worth less than YouTube?
It's like, yes. YouTube is the only thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They don't really make that much money.
They don't make any money.
Aren't they like in a deficit, basically, basically, all the time?
Yeah.
But they're on the stock market, though.
Well, I'm a fun fan.
Yeah.
So how are they getting these valuations?
Is it just I have all those, basically?
Well, they're a publicly traded company because they're part of Facebook.
So that valuation just comes in.
Then you have to determine how much of Facebook value is based on Instagram
Okay, I'll at least have no face Facebook worth
Who knows I don't their stock just look at the market cap on it more than YouTube
Yeah, yeah, yeah, like like it's like pushing up towards Apple you know and Microsoft insights
They're stocks trading at 81 dollars. It closed at $81.45.
Their market cap is about $222.5 billion.
$200.
Oh my God.
$1.5 billion.
There you go.
How much is all of Russia?
A wrap around.
Like today?
Have you heard about the rubble?
Oh yeah, it's just taking right now, right?
Tanking.
That's going to be great.
So you can trade Facebook for Russia.
And then like, let's just swap it out. It's crazy. It's crazy. I mean, people always get really excited about the highs.
Those high highs. Yeah. You know where it's like, oh, sell high, sell high.
You know, it's like, and you can only see in hindsight, like what the high of something was.
But really, the bigger part of the equation is buying something when it's undervalued.
Yeah. And having a vision that it's going to go higher. You know what I mean?
That's where you can make a ton of money doing that.
The gasoline right now. I knew somebody who bought Dell stock in the 90s.
So you know anyone from Austin? Yeah, pretty much. They bought it at like $2 a share and it went to $4 a share
and this person then sold it because they doubled their money in like two months and threw a party.
About five years later, we looked back and said,
they threw a $700,000 party.
Because Dell in the mid 90s, just like-
Exploded.
It like split, 10 times or something like that.
It just kept skyrocketing.
Well, Dell's based here in Austin, up and around rock.
And yeah, you hear about Dellianaires,
about all these people who made, you know,
they are now multi-millionaires based on their Dell stock.
Yeah.
And, but it doesn't always say that we forever
del bought back their company
yeah from the from the public
michael del bought it back
like bought all the stock
and you think they're doing a lot better now too right that the college
you don't know well because it's not public betrayed they don't have a close
yeah he said at the time he said the time that um
you know he's being held back by
uh... you know
being essentially at the the mercy of shareholders you know what i mean for decisions that he's being held back by essentially at the mercy of shareholders,
you know what I mean, for decisions that he makes and stuff like that.
And so I guess that was the decision to do that.
Yeah, I think once they go private, it's a lot easier to axe products and maybe take a
short-term loss for longer-term gain instead of trying to explain that to a group of shareholders.
Right, who just want immediate returns and don't see a long-term value.
So apparently that piece of shit phone is called the HTC Desire Eye. Desire? group of shareholders, right, who just want immediate returns and don't see a long-term value.
So apparently that piece of shit phone is called the HTC Desire Eye.
Desire?
Yeah, I'm getting it tweeted to me.
Yeah.
You're going to get that phone.
I always get a sponsor to deal right now, like in front of a million.
God damn it.
It's good.
Like, I always want to like watch the Weirder story, like in business.
Like one of the famous examples is dig. Dig was dominant. Everybody was
on dig.com. And for a couple of different reasons, people just cool off on stuff online
eventually, things get old. And people, a man at there was talk that they were going to
sell to Google for $190 million. And then three years later, they sold for $500,000.
Like they went from $190 million valuation
like a deal on the table to $500,000
what they sold their last assets.
Asking for two medium pizzas.
Yeah, I mean, $5,000 a lot of money, don't get me wrong.
But I mean, that's kind of thing.
Oh, shit.
The other thing is the flip side is like what Reddit did
where the founders of Reddit sold for like,
three million to Condonest,
one of the biggest publishing companies in the world,
and now Reddit's worth $190 million every they sold it.
So, which is the harder thing to live with, right?
Is it harder to live with?
There was all this money, and now we didn't go out
at the high or we went out way too early.
I'm sure it's hard to reconcile in your head, but if I was one of the Reddit founders
who sold at 3 million, I would think, well, it was Konday Nast who took it to 190.
I don't know that I would have had the expertise to grow it or if I would have been able to
successfully do that.
The other ones more of a missed opportunity.
This one is just like, oh, well, could have been.
Could have what I should have. Yeah. I can't imagine being
dig and knowing that there was that no brother, there was an offer out there. Yeah.
Yeah. And who's the guy? Who's the final guy who said, no, we'll pass. I like, because
you actually Google walk away from what I've heard. Oh, they walked away from what I've heard.
I've heard. It's all. It was John dig. You know, all that shit is rumored. She a lot of
stuff will get floated
You know yeah, you know it's gonna tell the cell phone down. I'm gonna try to find I'm gonna try to see if they ever publicly
So apparently I'm also being told
Who is this someone on Twitter nubes 28 is saying that split screen video is
They're gonna say it'll be called a half-sea
I have see which I think is a pretty good name a half-sea. I like that as well. I don't know it sounds like I don't know it sounds something like sexual. It's like you bang it now we said half-sees.
Let me see here. I mean split screen videos obviously already exist but this is something different where you get front and back.
Room it is like something called me. I'm assuming 7 million the sale sale of Reddit back in the day. But now worth $191 million.
That was the last time I even checked on it.
Try to work more than that now.
Probably.
Yeah, sorry, Bart.
Oh, no, no, it was all good.
This is their secret Santa.
Like Reddit has the secret Santa thing every year.
Didn't they break a record this year?
I think so.
They've broken world records like every year they've done it.
Yeah.
It's had a fun these year, every now and then,
like a Vern Troyer participated.
And I think Major Nelson participated in it.
So Reddit, so yeah, Ron Perlman.
Yeah, a major Nelson sent an Xbox One to somebody
whoever he got, which is pretty cool.
Like, you get it.
And then someone got like a $5,000 sculpture sent to him.
Like?
Yeah.
I see crazy stuff like someone will post like a MacBook Pro.
Someone got it in the way you actually got that.
Yeah.
Or like someone posted like,
I believe it.
With all the games.
Yeah, yeah.
I believe someone got a MacBook Pro.
Because let's say you're getting a new computer and you have an old one and just like, it still works, but you don't really know what to do with it. So just like, yeah, I believe someone got a MacBook Pro because let's say you're getting a new computer and you have an old one and just like it still works, but you only know to do with it. So just like, yeah, all right, make someone's Christmas.
Dude, what if you fucked up though and you had to like return a MacBook Pro the same day you were going to ship your reddit gift.
I accidentally shipped in the wrong thing. Oh, no, you have two sealed brown boxes and then put the dress on.
And then you're all of the front, like best gift ever, you're like, yeah. Woo. It's best.
It's best.
It's best.
It's best.
It's best.
I hear there's a question for you, Bernie.
We are what, four days away from Christmas.
We're four days from Christmas.
How many, do you have all of your gifts purchased?
I do.
Do it really?
Have they all been palatized?
I don't know.
No, I have all of my gifts purchased.
Nice.
I get off easy because I don't buy anything from places we do bonuses.
So it's like, I feel like, that's like, right?
That's gross.
What is that?
I get off easy too.
It happens all of us.
No, but no, I had a big long talk with the kids about this too, is like they were
threatened about like, how did they have enough gifts for people?
I'm like, no, no sweat it.
It's only somebody to get to give, that's Christmas.
You don't need like a million gifts.
Yeah, no.
I think whoever did the campaign for Christmas
with like a mountain of presents under the tree
is like the same people who did the engagement or anything
like the beers.
It's just like, they just came up with that one day.
So how many people do you buy presents for?
Uh, five, I guess all together.
I guess six, you include my brother.
Okay.
Seven if you include Gus, right?
What's that?
Seven if you include Gus.
I got Gus at Christmas gift.
I know.
I got mad at you.
Is that you?
I didn't have anything for her.
Yeah, it's not terrible.
Well, I was at Twin Lickers and I picked something up.
She knows what I like.
That's where girl.
She knows.
Yeah, I'm just like, here you go.
Would you rather give a bad gift or get a bad gift? Get a bad gift. Get. He knows what I like. That's my girl. She knows. Oh, yeah. I'm just like, here you go.
Would you rather give a bad gift or get a bad gift?
Get a bad gift.
Get a bad gift.
Get a bad gift.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, weird.
Like giving, the giving thing is like, it's gone just like, oh, the act of giving to like, this has to be awesome.
I don't like being around someone when they open a gift I've given them.
Oh, really?
I don't want to be there.
I don't want to know.
We should only do that.
Like, they're fucked.
Yeah.
All of us are gift by next week. If they're like, I don't want to know if they're bad, if it's a bad gift or if it's
all.
Yeah, if they're not excited about it or like if they're faking enthusiasm, I don't want
to know.
I don't want to know.
I was okay being there when you opened it because I knew you would like it.
Yeah, I got drunk.
We really think you're saying at work and I really.
You have the best gift for your person.
Oh, for Steffi.
Yeah, it was amazing.
It was just, I thought it was just dumb, honestly.
It was so funny.
Oh, God.
What'd you give her?
I got her an achievement hunter preparedness kit.
Like, she's the one of the newest people at achievement hunter.
Yeah.
And I basically said, you know, here's everything you'll need.
If an achievement hunter approaches you, if they do,
don't run.
Just follow these instructions.
Everybody had like an instruction.
So it was like, like, you know, Gavin's
was like a shiny object to show it to him and throw it behind a couch.
And then he'll, he'll try to dig it and add it to his nest for the next hour.
And then just run, then just back away slowly. And it was like all stuff like that.
Like a red bullet throw it, Michael, and then like run the other way.
Yeah. Caleb's was of various balls just throwing as far as you can.
And then shut the door when he leaves to chase after to fetch it.
I said, otherwise he will come back in with the ball and then tell you how that's a completely legitimate sport.
Don't listen to him.
But it was just silly stuff like that.
And then I got heard like in the middle of that I went over the limit, which I just,
I limit it to stupid.
I have problems.
Is that a problem if you do that?
No, I went way over the limit for it too.
I think it if people draw me too, it's like kind of like, you know, kind of like a lottery thing.
It's like, just like, of course I'm gonna spend more than that on that.
You know what I mean?
It's kind of like one of those things where,
what was the limit?
It was like 25 or 30 bucks.
30 bucks.
And I thought I got your gift card to like this like spa thing.
So she could like relax after dealing with you fucking animals.
Oh, you can't really buy anything that fits on a pallet for 30 dollars.
I know.
A pallet?
Yeah.
What do you mean surprised?
What do you mean? What is the cheapest amount of things or the cheapest thing you can buy that would come
on a pallet?
Like an inflatable pallet?
Yeah, like our, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no a hundred bucks. I would even need a pallet that, because it's not gonna break.
The whole idea of a pallet is like,
put something heavy on it.
How many pallets of bubble wrap show up somewhere?
And something to do just starts on wrapping,
you're going, what the fuck is this thing?
What's the thing for you?
It's something like this,
where you're pretending.
In this.
If we give a shout out to anybody in the holidays,
let's give a shout out to the dude who invented
the little balloons of cellophane that come in packages. No, the Amazon packages. Yeah, whatever every package
We just all get our stuff from Amazon. Yeah, cuz we're all fucking corporate horse, but uh
Whoever invented those I got rid of styrofoam peanuts fuck styrofoam peanuts. Those are gone from our life is now
Thank I can't usually I'll get an item over what the fuck styrofoam when I pull it out
And I'm always surprised when that happens. I hate styrofoam
Yeah, I hate the noise it makes. Where'd you want a box of styrofoam for an arty life?
Those were packing peanuts, but they weren't the styrofoam
Oh like the cornstarch ones. Yeah, okay those dudes. I feel so bad for those guys the guys who made the cornstarch peanuts
They stick to everything because they came out with their like we invented. It's a bio-degreeable
It's good for the environment. Whatever. It's yeah, I just remember this like balloon. Oh fuck
Those bio-degree
$199 million dollar valuation to a 500 thousand dollar
God damn it guys had like a solid nine months
And that was it and then the dude was like we'll just put in little air pockets in there. That'll work great
Yeah, those things are awesome because it's like I know you have to like have bags of styrofoam
peanuts.
And that was before like, you really shipped a lot of stuff.
But now in Amazon, I think probably 50% of the things that I get are delivered to me.
I got really, I have only recently signed up for prime.
It's a, it's in you development for me.
I know.
I can't believe.
I can't believe.
It's 70 bucks a year.
Yeah, I think it's 100 now. Okay. But I don't know if it's only prime or a non prime thing for me. I know. I can't believe I I'm in the summer. Yeah, I think it's a
hundred now. But I don't know if if
it's only prime or a non-priming
free. I got I got a delivery Sunday
the other day. Yeah, really? Yeah, I was
like I was driving by my mailbox.
It's like there's stuff in there. I got
I was like I got delivery to my mailbox
an Amazon package on on Sunday. Was it a
pantry one? No. It's not a service
we have here.
They just unrolled, unrolled, rolled out,
Amazon instant in Manhattan, our delivery.
Yeah, it's like ordering, like takeout.
That's cool.
Except for everything.
What happens to the Amazon drone thing?
Is that still happening or is that just a bullshit thing?
That was one of the best things ever.
Best marketing scenes ever.
That came out Saturday before black Monday.
That's why they did that.
What's that?
That's a cyber Monday, thank you.
So it was like everybody was going to Amazon site
to look at this like drone thing
on the biggest digital shopping day of the year.
Yeah, that is genius.
I was thinking of that.
Fucking genius.
What they did that.
So, anyway, the drone thing is like it could happen,
but I don't think the legality of it's really been worked out
Yeah, because there's a case right now of a guy who shot down a drone that was over his his neighbor flew a drone over his property
Shot it out of the air and they're in court battling it out over who's gonna pay for the drone
Huh, and it's like what are the rights, you know of like look you flew something into my airspace
I get to shoot it, you know, that's the way the world works
Yeah, well, how high does your airspace do your airspace I get to shoot it you know that going down the ground, you don't have much.
Yeah, you don't own mineral rights.
Yeah, you got about three feet and then you're in somebody else's property.
Who the fuck owns all those mineral rights?
Because if nobody owns the mineral rights to their own property, who does?
I assume the, it's probably the state government does.
Yeah.
And they sell it or lease it to companies I would assume.
They drink your milkshake.
Yes, the Hedges ring drink your milk shake from a sideways.
And how, by the way, how horrible would it be
to discover that there's oil on your property?
That would be probably one of the worst things
that's ever happened.
Yeah, until they hand you a check
and say, here, you have to move on.
You don't want them in or rights.
But if someone wants to put a oil derrick on your house,
you're in your yard, they're gonna have to pay you.
They'll drink your milk shake. Or they'll drink your milk shake. They'll set up a giant oil oil right next on your house, you'd like, in your yard, they're gonna have to pay you. They'll drink your milk, sure. They'll drink your milk, yeah.
They'll set up a giant oil oil right next to your house.
I guess in the middle of the cul-de-sac, like right in the sense of that center oil.
That's the other crazy thing that's going on right now.
Gas, what's the lowest you've seen it?
I think the lowest I've seen is like, two 12.
It's not 209.
I saw 203.
Wow.
I'm so waiting for that take over to one and I saw somebody post online about it
And that's in the US I'd say lately we've been paying about 380 a gallon for gas and now we're down to like two dollars a gallon
Essentially, it's where we are. You know what I haven't seen that in years. I hate something
This is my favorite room. This is my favorite thing is something else. I hate cheap gas. I don't know cheap
I love cheap gas, but I hate what cheap gas has done to Tesla stock.
Because people are like,
That only makes sense.
Yeah, but it's how short-sighted is that?
Well, my test of stock, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is the opportunity you were talking about.
It's like, oh, gas is cheap.
There's no need for electric cars anymore.
Clearly.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Are you all fucking stupid?
Yeah.
Well, you've got it.
It's just a short reprieve.
So you've got a hybrid and you've got a fully electric car. It's fully electric.
That's awesome. I'm so jealous of your car. Is there another Tesla out there too?
I think someone over the building next to us also owns a Tesla.
Haven't you? Or are you parking in their parking spots? I saw what?
They're better not be. Oh, you mean the sound check? Yeah.
I totally parking their parking spots back. Oh, okay.
They put that thing where they put like sound check on them. I'm like,
fuck you guys. What do you, what do you, like, we make in laws with spray paint?
Go fuck yourselves.
Spray paint is not a problem.
I never, I never, like, when I had my truck and they have a, like, a best buy, when they
have parking for fuel-efficient vehicles, zip right in there.
I think it's awesome.
I'm not surprised.
What about like an ACB where they have, like, the parking for pregnant women, pregnant
or expecting mothers?
That affects people for real.
That's, I'm okay with that.
That's why I bring an extra pillow with me every day.
What about if you're by yourself
and there's a family parking spot?
What's that?
Family parking.
I don't mess with people parking.
Like, hand to cat people or family.
I will park all over family parking.
Will you really?
Oh yeah, I have a family.
I have a family.
My wife, I got dogs.
I got a mom and a dad.
I get real full family.
I'm a full family parking dog.
I don't care.
Yeah, I don't fucking around with it.
You don't even need the carpool in.
What do they need, Bernie?
I learned this in whatever, 1990, when I was working at the fucking mall.
24 years ago.
Yeah, they need to have fucking parking for the employees because I would show up at
the mall for my job, the mall opens at nine.
I'd show up at 830 and all the spots, like the first 50% of the parking lot
by the door was already taken,
and even as a teenager basically,
it was like, well, that's clearly misdesigned.
Of course, the employees from the mall
show up before anybody else,
and they all park closest to the mall.
Now, see, I worked at a mall when I was growing up
and they forced us to park as far,
like after a certain, like curb or whatever,
like as you go up the kind of like rounded areas,
so they made you park like past the third one
and you have to walk in.
Third, yeah, well it's like, you know,
where the little, you know, the trees come out
or whatever and there's parking spots
and little tree comes out more.
Oh, you have a little culvert over there.
Yeah, so you have to be at the park,
pass a certain.
I always assumed there was just employee parking at malls
in some place I didn't know.
No, just park at the park.
Yeah, they park under them all.
Shut the fuck up.
They don't like the park. They park behind in the park. Yeah, they park under them all. Shut the fuck up. They don't park it.
They only come behind.
They park it in a helicopter.
And they jump out.
You mean fun in my biceps,
fun in my fucking house.
You'll be fun in your biceps.
I'm like a cigarette.
I would love to see you to work with them all.
You would live at them all.
Like they always go to sleep.
And night they go to the mattress store
and sleep where they're also even in those massage chairs.
Is that what you're gonna try to trip back into? into you sure to them all? Oh, no, no
That was at a convention. We tried to convince Becca she had to sleep in the booth
By the way, we did not invite Becca to the holiday party. Oh, fuck. Yep. Well, she's she's got a new baby, right?
What does that mean she needs to stay at home? Yeah, she's taking a little family park
Now I feel like an asshole. Yeah, we always do this the family park. Yeah. Now I feel like an ass
fool. We always do this where we try to like go through and just like for whatever reason
we just forgot to fucking invite Becca. And she probably didn't know until just now and
I'm just gonna tweet at her and be like, by the way, do you realize? Oh no. No, the Facebook
photos went up and she goes, thanks for the invite. Oh man. She was all over it
So you get my another present for her. She's back mix on Twitter, right?
B-E-X-M-I-X so please tell her that we're very sorry that we didn't invite her to the holiday party
I
Can keep someone a bad gift in there opening it
This is cool. It's coming. Oh, this is cool.
It's coming to you.
Yeah, it's cool.
These photos are, it looks like you had fun.
So, but was, there's a DJ there.
That's awesome.
Yes.
I'm glad for you.
One year as a kid, I'm gonna go back here
to this like bad gift thread that we've been talking about.
Mm-hmm.
You know, when you're a kid, you like toys, video games, stuff like that that right? Yeah, anything is not close anything that's not close
Right. Oh, one kind of know how old I was 13 or 14
My sister who's four years younger than me was like, oh, you know what's your ideal Christmas present?
I was like oh yeah toys you know Nintendo this that yeah, she's like what would you say if someone bought you socks?
Like socks is like the worst gift in the world. That's like notorious for being the worst
She bucks like who bought you socks my sister. She's like you socks, but now it's like if someone dude
She's like a sock and a giant box with socks awesome
My mom my mom literally text me said what do you want for Christmas? I am said I need new socks and underwear
She goes okay, it's like and as a kid, I would have fucking hated that.
I'm out of the worst.
You've been like socks and underwear.
Now I'm like, dude, thank God these are great.
Nothing's better to opening a pair.
It's like opening a whole bag of socks
and like putting on a fresh pair.
We're like, do you have to wear it
and put it on at once?
Till I agree.
I have a question.
That night vision goggles.
Would you buy me socks for Christmas?
Can you laugh and she's like,
I know, can you go into my joke?
Can you go into my joke? I've heard it. What did you say? You have to listen to me on your podcast.? I know, I can't even go into my joke. Can you tell me when we heard it?
What did you say, sir?
You got to listen to me on your podcast.
I'm sorry, I missed it.
I'm just jacking out over here.
We're acting without socks.
Well, you were doing a thing where you were trying to
wear different pair of socks daily.
Or not daily.
Yeah, exactly when I wear a new pair of socks every day.
That's nice.
I said if I had enough money, I would just wear a new pair
of socks every day of my life.
But then the switch stuff where Gavin, the reason I wear different socks now is because Gavin, one
day called me out on how ugly my socks were.
And you really hurt my feelings.
He said they look like grandpa socks.
He hurt my feelings very badly.
What did you think?
Yeah.
And so I totally started wearing different socks in my sock game.
I have a question about Christmas and presents.
Oh, sure.
Is this a Jewish question?
Well, technically because I don't really celebrate Christmas. I don't do
Presence and she is Jewish so technically yes. Yes, so
When you compare your birthday and Christmas in terms of getting presents for people is Christmas or like practical stuff that people need and
Then your birthday stuff that people like want or something like more like special. I don't think this much of a different
It is the exact same but less gifts on your birthday
Yeah, yeah is much of a different. It is the exact same but less gifts on your birthday. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Because I feel like a lot of people.
A lot of people get a lot of people get your tummy gifts on Christmas.
I feel like a lot of people get like socks or clothes or things that they need for Christmas.
Like that's more common than getting that kind of stuff on your birthday.
Like you wouldn't get socks for your birthday.
I get Christmas when you have it at your house.
None.
Yeah. Honey.
You get eight presents for Hanukkah, right?
No, not. I don't know.
You don't get a present tonight?
Everyone does it differently. Some families do it that way some families
Just like do it like Christmas like you get one big present from someone. Oh really?
So remember the Jewish kids when I was growing up was like you guys get a fucking presents god damn
Yeah, so they'd be like Christmas churned like this gluttonous marketing fast where it's like nymphs like 20 gifts
I mean the Jews
like nints like 20 gifts. Be the Jews.
I don't know.
Get my presents.
Nine presents.
Somehow that churned around.
Like Christmas became like huge.
I think like three or four gifts on Christmas
for a person is totally enough.
I like, I, I, I committed a Christmas foul this year.
What did you do?
I'm gonna fess up to it.
I'm gonna make it first.
I'm gonna make it first.
I'm gonna say don't buy me any year.
I'm gonna buy anything.
We've been, we've been, we've been through.
Don't buy me anything.
We don't buy each other stuff for our birthdays
for Christmas. I bought her two presents this year for Christmas. Oh no, Oh no, it was like listen. I know you're gonna be really angry
I bought you some presents don't buy me anything. Oh, no
I did that to you. Yeah, but you did feel super guilty. I felt I know the pain you know
I'll kind of jump on the back of that the one thing that does suck
I have a birthday that is a week and a half after Christmas
And so I get that bullshit. This is your Christmas and birthday gift. It's like awesome. Thank you. Oh, it's just not even the same month.
People shouldn't be able to do that. Yeah. On the 18th of January. So I get the same thing. He does.
What is it? You have friends who have like birthdays over the summer and like, yeah, look at all this
stuff. I got it. It's like awesome. A new bike. That's great. My parents. You know, pulled out.
We did a little longer. Wait a year. I'm talking about.
So, um, what is the, just have the time you head right away. Wait a little longer. Wait a little longer.
Wait a little longer.

Wait a little smell I to this day yeah, got was that 24 years ago 23 years ago I remember the smell opening up that pack. Dude. I'm sure they have new electronic cologne somewhere.
You can buy.
Do you know what the best smelling cologne
out of that batch of colognes that I got was?
Dirt?
It was dirt.
Yeah, no, that one was awesome.
The dirt cologne was awesome.
I still have that.
You should wear it.
I saw it.
Sawdust was not good.
I love this one all sawdust.
I think grass, I don't know if it made the move from the ol' off to this office guy.
I had that one on my desk for all.
Is that who I gave to you?
Yeah, yeah.
It just smelled green to me.
Yeah.
It didn't smell like grass necessarily.
What was your best gift, Barbara?
I can't think of one.
Yeah.
Like, my parents have always been very generous and got me
and my brother's great presence every year for our birthdays
or whatever.
But when I moved to Austin, they helped me buy a car,
which I think is like the nicest gift.
That's cool.
Because like, that was a huge help when I, you know,
getting on your feet and stuff,
being able to afford a car is really helpful.
Absolutely.
Were that long commute from across the street?
Exactly.
That's what I'm saying.
I'm coming handy now, though.
The does coming handy now.
Mine was, go ahead.
The PlayMobile Pirate Chip.
Oh, the real pirate?
I was like five for six.
I just was like, it was, I remember it cost my parents
like $50, I was like, what the, that's like the greatest thing ever. It's like just, I see it in stores occasionally
and like, I'm totally gonna buy that again. It was awesome. That's what actually got you
on that. Yeah, the actual power. I'm gonna read this thing. Remind everyone, this episode

I'm finishing some footage my queen. I'm on Twitter right now someone said Peter Frieden said
Split-screen video will revolutionize the porn industry as we know it. Oh that is fucking horrible. Yep. No
I just want to see what people are saying here that I don't want it. I don't know like when you want to see the guys face
People don't like to be watched opening gifts,
because they feel like they have to perform, do it.
Yeah, that's why I don't want to be agree with you.
So someone tweeted, I don't know if you saw this.
Shadowed Fox said that a cool,
there is a new cologne that duplicates the smell
of newly unboxed Apple gadgets.
There's not, is there?
Specifically Apple gadgets too.
Not just gadgets in general.
Oh, it's in an art exhibit though.
Yeah, okay.
So I don't know, it doesn't seem like they're selling it seems like they did it for a

Jacob's brand.
Oh God, there's like a tag he did one time that was like,
how does it name like four times?
No, I think it was more than four.
It was like over and over again.
It was like Kanye levels of self-promotion.
It was incredible.
You know, I'm actually allergic to most perfumes.
Oh really? No fucking figure. No perfume. Oh, we've had the discussion. I like the deodorant right like you know my god
Don't get me started
I will just say you're allergic to fun and it's like everything that falls in a fun category
Perfect is our fun. They're blessed. You know what you fucking missing is your allergic
It's perfume
No, we work together.
It's okay.
I wear a normal one.
I would let you know if it was a problem.
Okay.
Ashley wears vanilla and I like that a lot.
She wears something that's vaguely vanilla scent.
I appreciate the fact that you wear perfume
because our office smells really nice.
Yeah.
It's perfect for some of the other offices.
That's a very common comment when you walk in.
It smells nice in here. You're like, not good. It's not me. Michigan's a very common comment where you'll walk in it's not nice in here. Yeah, it's not me. Michigan's a buck 98.
Hey, three filmers are you a buck 89 balls and sweat.
Where's that balloon? Sweaty ball.
You guys should make a balloon and sell it in the store.
They cheap 100. We have some achievement of vinegar in there already.
So yeah, you guys begin to vignory. Yeah,. Oh, dude Ryan man. We're together a long time
Oh, yeah, did you see the shenanigans video that that we put out?
So you guys made it in show technically I walked in in the middle of that. Yeah, yeah
You guys were doing that and walked out. That's probably a good thing. Yeah, it was I was nervous for our safety when Ryan was coming back in
Thank God Michael is smart enough to actually grab his gamer tag. His old gamer tag before that happened.
I saw Jeff coming out of the bathroom. And our bathrooms are outdoors.
It's getting a separate building basically. It'll leave the studio to use the
bathroom. Thank God because we have too much recording equipment in here.
And I was walking across the parking lot. He comes out of the bathroom and he comes
out of the bathroom like this. I go, dude, that is the happiest I've ever seen
anybody come out of the bathroom. And he goes, he goes, oh, we're just,
we're fucking with Ryan right now.
He was giddy, giddy about it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I listen, I always love pranks.
You know, I just love that kind of stuff.
I think it's a weird kind of like compliment when you go out of your way to establish like
some kind of really well orchestrated, architected prank on somebody.
I remember that, Bernie.
What?
I'll remember that.
Quotes in the chat.
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah, I got it.
And like sticking with it.
And like we're all dedicated to sending
Gus these quotes in the name chat.
Remember that.
Yeah.
So I'm always following Gavin all the way
to Paxies to waiting for him to turn around
so I can continue with him.
See, I'm always nervous about pranks
that I'm going to take it too far by accident.
Like I'm going to be the guy who brings it
to the next level and unintentionally, and then it's like, oh, that was actually too far. I'm gonna take it too far by accident. Like I'm gonna be the guy who brings it to the next level and like unintentionally and then
it's like, oh that was actually too far, I'm sorry.
And then I try to stay out of it.
Like someone pranks me and is like, alright what are you talking about?
No, that's the thing.
Like I do my best not to prank people because I get nervous that like, you know, I would
do something that would piss someone off, legitimately piss someone off.
Like I don't know, I don't know, I don't know how to control myself.
It's like Jack's like, I had a sleepover.
It's like, hey, you were sleeping.
So we got to play it with warm water in it
and then drown your dog in it.
I'm just, I'm not gonna say that.
That was amazing.
I shouldn't do that.
Can we show the Mark Jacobs label?
I don't know, by Mark Jacobs.
I pulled it.
For Mark by Mark Jacobs in collaboration with Mark Jacobs.
For Mark.
By Mark Jacobs.
Was that the bottom there?
Yeah, so thanks to B Mills 191 on Twitter for tweeting.
That's amazing.
Part of it's cut off.
Is there anything at the bottom?
Oh, nice.
Dude, you got to self-promote.
Mark Jacobs.
Awesome.
Got to mark yourself out there.
Got to mark Jacobs.
To people who have already purchased your clothing.
To whom so much to me?
If they're in, you know, I'm not sure.
They're at the store.
They look at the label like oh
Oh totally
Mark Jacobs, we should talk about artsy about let's play live
Let's talk about let's play live yet. Yay. All right
So
So we we initially announced let's play live at an extra life this year and then I was gonna be actually was gonna be last week yeah last week. Do you want to explain
what it is in case people don't know what. So let's play lives basically if you've
ever come to RTX and seen the sheep hunter guys up on stage playing video games
and front of the crowd like 4,000 people we're taking that experience to a
theater setting here in Austin and with the idea of this does really well then
we might take it on the road and actually tour around and play different cities
all over the country. Let's get to this one first.
Let's go for a chance. Let's calm down.
Contesting the first one. People got upset when they thought it was just going to be
awesome. That was it. Like I need to say, like if it goes well we're looking at expanding it.
So 10% chance. 10% chance. But there's still a chance. Still a chance.
So now we, uh, it was going to be December but we pushed it back a little bit just to get a
little bit better dates and now we, am I 100% good to announce this good so we are having let's play live here in Austin, Texas at the ACL
Life Theater ACL live at Moody Theater ACL live at Moody Theater downtown second in second street and like second in Colorado or wherever it's
Lavaca, Lavaca behind the behind the the city hall on
February 20th which is a Friday.
So it's a Friday now, instead of a, I think it was going to be a Thursday before, Thursday
or Wednesday before.
So it's going to be February 20th on Friday, and tickets are going to go on sale at 3pm
Central Standard Time tomorrow.
So there's, we'll have links posted pretty much everywhere, we can get tickets for it.
There's going to be, I think, floor balcony,
and then we have VIP seating, and the VIP,
there's gonna be an after party in the actual,
in the concert, in the show,
and we're all gonna be hanging out afterwards
and be drinking with you.
So if you're listening to the podcast on audio version,
it's today, so it's Tuesday, December 23rd.
Tuesday, December 23rd. December 23rd.
At 3PM, Central Standard Time, minus, is it 5 GMT or 60?
Think it's six.
Look it up.
Whatever.
Yeah, Google it.
So we, I mean, there are limited number of seats.
It is a venue.
So, I mean, we'll sell out.
So you should get your tickets pretty quick.
Also, I have to ask people who don't live in the city of Austin, don't buy tickets.
Yeah.
I mean, I thought you were going to travel.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
So I forget what we were doing one time, we At midnight first RTX or at midnight you thought always at midnight
Yeah, I was worried that like if we set up in the podcast those tickets were free
I was wearing people would just like sign up for the tickets just cuz they would like cool print out of like the Rushi
You know, we did a podcast of the state theater and people are buying tickets. That was the same deal
Oh, maybe that's what you were thinking. Yeah, so anyway, but yeah, it's gonna be awesome
It's gonna be a lot of fun. We have a lot of really cool stuff that we can't do through normal
means like through YouTube or whatever. So we're doing stuff live on stage that you're not
gonna be able to see anywhere else. Jack will take a prank too far. I'm gonna take a prank way
too far. He's gonna hurt Gavin. Yeah. So anyway, I'm very excited for it. This is something I've
been working on for a while and I'm very amped to see how it goes. It's a lot of fun to have calls with people and
explain to them what it is we want to do and they go, yeah, that's impossible.
No, no, no, no, no, we can do it before. And they're like, no, no, you can't do it.
No, no, listen, you just got to find this piece of equipment and you plug them in
this way and it'll work. Like, okay, that's testing.
And like asking for sure. It for props and like what can we do
and like will this cause fires?
So it's pretty cool.
It's gonna be a whole show.
It's gonna be a whole show.
I was like I want a petting zoo.
I want farm animals on stage.
You're like you don't want that.
Yeah.
We've been looking at marching bands.
Like it's gonna be fun.
But and also like not only that, yeah it is gonna be a show.
We have a DJ.
It's I-A-Y-D is to be opening for us and uh so he does game
but he is chiptune so he's a chiptune artist so he literally has two game boys and a mixer and that's all he brings on stage and that guy fucking rocks like it's really
it's Alex Alex Luna really good kid he's based here in Austin I saw him when he played his very first show uh I think he was 16 years old. He played it before the highball existed in that spot where the Salvation Army was. It was amazing. He played Datapop forever
ago at a fantastic fest or South by South Wales.
That is the ultimate new and popular famous toy. I saw him in a Salvation Army. He went
to Corpus and he opened for Andrew WK this weekend. Really? Yeah, so like this kid is
getting big and so he's opening for us.
No, I'm just saying you saw him back in the day.
Oh, no, way back in the day.
Yeah, and so I've been, you know,
I've been friends with him for a few years now,
and so I was like, we have this really cool venue,
and what do you like to play ACL,
and he's like, holy shit, absolutely.
So, so he's gonna be opening for us,
he'll be playing there, and then,
and then we're gonna have about,
probably around three hours of content
with the Achievement Guys,
like two sets where we'll do like,
you know, some games games first take a little break
So you can go buy exclusive merchandise
You can only get during the show and then I say you guys can pee and also so we can you know breathe, you know get refresh our drinks
They sell alcohol there right they do they sell alcohol there. You should buy lots of we were a lot funnier when you're drunk
So
It's true. It's very true. Yeah, so anyway. Yeah, so again tickets go on sale tomorrow at 3 p.m. Central Standard Time and we'll have links on our
I'm sorry December 23rd at 3 p.m. Central Standard Time. Well links everywhere on Twitter on the website
Tumblr links to it
Shoot from Lauren reading on
Twitter she says our VIP tickets for the Let's Play live event only 21 and up?
No, no.
Anyone, is it all ages?
100%?
Yeah, I believe so.
Yeah.
So, if they want to drink, obviously, they have to be over 21.
They have to present ID.
Otherwise, it's just like they'll put the access on your hand and you can't drink.
So, you could buy the VIP tickets at the same time as you could buy the regular ticket?
Yeah, all tickets go on sale, they do that at the same time.
I think that's first come first serve. Yes, absolutely. And there's a limited number of VIP tickets at the same time as you could buy the regular ticket. Yeah, all tickets go on sale. They do that at the same time.
I see that's first come first serve.
Yes, absolutely.
And there's a limited number of VIP tickets.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, you'll get a lanyard and.
So people watching this podcast have the upper hand.
There you go.
You know the time.
It's awesome.
So there you go.
So anyway, we are very much looking forward to it.
It's a really cool thing that, you know, no one's really done before.
So we're kind of trying to figure it out as we go along.
And so we'll see where it takes us. So I hope you join us.
So it's going to be fun.
Yeah, I mean, it's always a lot of fun whenever we do like panels and stuff like that.
And you guys are just completely taken into my life.
Yeah, it's going on sale the perfect time because that could be someone's Christmas gift.
There you go.
Wink, wink.
And tell your parents.
And so if you have if you have a lot of gift and there's nobody to ship it, buying
it, somebody to take it to something, you just print it out. Yeah it out Yeah, there you go for it to them. Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's cool. Like like said like we you know we do panels and stuff
But that's never we don't have full control of that
And this is something that's like if we have a creative creative idea
We go to our team and it's like can we do this and they go and we'll make it happen
And so we're doing some stuff that's gonna be a super kick ass that no one's done and I hope we can pull it off
Yeah, awesome
So I'm just having fun about live events.
I never even thought that online that live streaming would take off.
Because I thought the biggest advantage of the internet was the fact that everything was
on demand.
I want to see this, so I'll just click a button and there it goes.
And who's going to show up at a certain time to see something and not see it again.
But it's like, people love it.
It's like the biggest thing on the internet now is live streaming stuff.
Yeah.
I know people are going to be upset because we're not streaming it. As of right now, we're people love it. It's like the biggest thing on the internet now is live streaming stuff Yeah, I know people are gonna be upset because we're not we're not streaming it as a as of right now
We're not streaming it and but that's because we can do things
If you stream there's a whole other legal process you have to go through to make sure stuff gets clear
Not all of it. Yeah, that's the thing is like we if you think of this less of a normal like podcast or panel and more of a
Concert or a play. Because life performance.
Yeah, like I mean, if Book of Mormon rolls through town,
I'm not gonna be pissed off if they don't stream
it live for me to watch it home.
And like it's just, it's one of the things.
And it's like we're doing stuff that's, you know,
but it's a good problem to have where people will
want to see it, right?
So, and it works well, they'll go on tour.
Yeah, if it works well, hopefully you'll be
in a major city near you.
Yeah, that's good.
We gotta work on that.
And then, and then, and then, and then,
and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then a major city near you. We got to work on that. And this will be out of the office.
This is so exciting.
It's the internet and the regular
media for that.
We don't take us away from our kids.
It's been a lot of work.
It's been a lot of work.
Oh, I should probably mention that
a guardian applications for our kids.
Hey, if you're a Twitter tell me to
put my phone down on a fucking
reading Twitter, dumb bricks.
God dammit.
How the fuck do you think I'm reading Twitter?
Yeah, how do you think I'm fucking
on my glasses?
How do you think we'll pull up images
like this?
Oh, look at that of
Segway Barbara I think is that a lower encroach out lower encroacher drew a barber with her angry. I look what did she say?
She got a kick out of Barbara's angry
Amplers and I
It's our tea pot. I feel kind of bad for all the fan artists out there for Rishi's because I keep changing my hair like every week
And they're just like god damn it
I have to change you and everything all the people who draw me
You do we need to separate you to be extra salty today, but before that I would just I mentioned that to a garden
Applications went online. So yes, if you want to be a guardian RTX 2015
I feel like a lot of people are telling me black boy y'all are starting applications early this year
Like no, we always do it around this time. I mean multiple people tell me that like no, it's always around this time
Technically, it's a month early because now we're August
I usually put them up in December and it's all earlier because the date of
Background yeah, but last year I wanted to have it up for a longer time. I was saying how many we're looking for I think similar to last year
Probably somewhere between three and four hundred. Wow. That's crazy. We have almost, we almost have more guardians than we
had people at the first RTS. Yeah, no, we pretty much do. That's pretty cool. That's a really good
point. I never thought it was crazy. Yeah. I want to cry now. Yeah. If you look like...
That's a little reasons. So what is RTS again this year? August 7th to 9th next year. 2015.
That's exciting. Yeah. It's gonna be really cool. But yeah, if you do apply for a
gradient, please be serious about it. Don't just fuck around and apply for no
reason if you have no intention of coming or volunteering because it just
waste everyone's time. It's a lot of work. I mean, let's be honest. It's not like
let's hang out and have fun. Yeah. It's a lot of back breaking work. And a lot of
older gradients have posted journals about their experience and what you should expect to be in
Gradient so read those before you go out and be glouring at you and if you do if you do become a guardian
Gus will why your present watch you open it no
In front of you by the end of 300 guests right?
It is it is a very tough job to because
The guardians tend to be people from the community
Who are at an event with 30,000 other people from the community who are at an event
with 30,000 other members of the community and the Guardians have the duty to
try to make that go smoothly. On paper that should not work when you know
30,000 people are there and you know essentially their ideal scenario is that
they would get to meet 20 people, right? Yeah. Yeah.
You know, that are part of the 30,000.
And it's like, that is very tough.
It's like, we have to keep people moving.
We have to keep, you know, the event going and things like that.
Keep the shows going.
Because essentially, RTX is like live shows that we do, like, on a rotating base.
Yeah, especially, especially now, it's more of a, it's more show based.
I mean, like, I think I'm going to become more and more like that too.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, like you said, like, you said, people go to RTX and I love it,
but people want to meet, they want to meet all the achievement
on our guys, where if you want to do that, you're literally
going to be standing in line, three hours per guy in the whole
time.
Instead of doing that, we'll do a live show on stage where we can
perform for 4,000 people for an hour as opposed to meet one
person for maybe 30 seconds after they waited three hours. It's like, you're going to start to see more and more stuff like that, I imagine. Yeah, for an hour as opposed to, you know, meet one person for maybe 30 seconds after they waited three hours.
It's like, you're gonna start to see more and more stuff
like that, I imagine.
Yeah, that makes more sense to me.
I totally agree with you.
Let's like, if we talk about that when we're online
as well, it's like even when we talk about live events,
it's like, you know, we can make a video
that a million people watch, or we can, you know,
do an event that we're 200, 300 people will see,
you know, like in a convention or something,
traditionally.
So we're trying to do bigger scale things
for our live events
Yeah, that includes RTX and that includes things like let's play live
so which
Technically let's play live as an RTX event. RTX is organizing it falls under the RTX banner
Road after we did that one show at the state theater, but we didn't
I think our ambition became
But we didn't do it. I think our ambition became, Patrick and I talked about it,
to do four a year on the road.
I'm not idea.
I think we hit that.
Yeah.
Podcasts is really, I mean, it's a more standard format though.
I mean, let's play live.
It's like all new.
So, I see someone on Twitter asking about it.
It was a set on 44, 94, I was asking what the motivation was behind moving back the date.
And it's really, it wasn't that we wanted to move back the
Day it was just there's so much
Technically to get done and to figure out that we just needed a little more time to
To build stuff and to you know to figure out and make sure everything works smoothly
It'll literally we could have rushed it and could have done it on the 17th, but you know
I might not have worked right we wouldn't have enough time to test
It's like and I'm also pushing it back to February
that gave us a chance to have it on a Friday.
So like, if someone does want to come in from out of town,
you know, it's a lot easier to fly during a weekend.
You're like, fly in Friday morning, you know.
Also, the 17th was like four days after you wrapped
on Laser Team.
So like half the people would have been just.
Yeah, Michael and Gavin were coming off,
Laser Team would have been like, all right,
now go be funny.
Let's say it's for three hours, like Jesus.
Basically what they're saying is that it's cadence fault.
It's based on cadence.
Caden and Caleb had a lot to do with it.
Caden and Caleb.
I had Caden for a cigarette, Santa.
And those other two.
The two names are.
Yeah.
I'm so sorry.
He's so easy to shop for.
I'm just like, what is nerdy?
I think this is this.
It's a case that's something about 90% of this company though.
Yeah, but he likes everything.
Yeah.
Like Ninja Turtles.
Sure. X-Men sure
What a power Rangers I should have got a power Rangers. I meant I went into the power Rangers when I was at soup and over
I'm at the red Ranger and the black Ranger
Cool
Didn't they change your time?
In the change of original ones the original ones. Yeah, did you hear that about the show?
Did you hear that Brian Kranson at the not about the show. Did you hear that Brian Cranston
did the voice of one of the Rangers?
I saw that.
Or he was a villain or something.
Yeah, he was the voice of the villain
and then he named, I think the Blue Ranger Billy.
Billy Cranston.
Billy Cranston after Brian Cranston.
That's ridiculous and awesome.
Is it ridiculous?
I mean, Brian Cranston doesn't exactly
have the most stellar resume.
He has one of the best parts of all time
with Walter White.
Well, I'll, you know, from Thalma Malkin the Middle.
Yeah.
They're also a very good funny part, but really different.
I don't know if you would say that Malkin the Middle
is like a classic show.
It's like he was playing like Pat and,
and like the lead and shadow fellow.
He had a good recurring character in Seinfeld.
Well, the Dennis?
Yeah.
We converted the Judaism for the jokes.
Yeah.
That's great.
I loved every time he was on there and that's actually a salty
Yeah, it was a
Wally
Tim Wattley. Yeah, Tim Wattley
Yeah, he's done a lot since
Breaking bad I mean like he did he was in that total recall remake was
Dr. Lee, but I guess was that before he's doing movies now, yes, right? And that was during breaking bad.
I don't see Brian Cranston's bad actor.
I'm not saying that all I'm just saying.
Are you hate Brian Cranston?
If you just if you're saying they just surprised that Brian Cranston was a power of me like
of all the people, not at all surprised by that.
But I mean of all the people's like, wow, that's to see where he went to where he is now.
It's a multiple, you know, golden globe, Emmy award-winning actor.
Dude, I got to start on Power Rangers.
I was thinking about it. I got to start on Power Rangers.
I was thinking about it there,
it's think about Breaking Bad.
Because you were on an argument with somebody about breaking
for an ounce of brands of moron.
I was saying he says the ending of loss
is better than breaking bad, which is super wrong.
I totally agree with that.
I'm gonna see the new one.
I think loss had lost so much steam by then.
Yeah.
That I don't know how they would've had a finale
that would've made sense for a loss.
I was happy with it.
I was fine with it.
It wrapped up the last two seasons. It didn't feel like it wrapped up the show for me.
What do you do? I don't know. You just have a special appearance on screenplay.
I'll have a special appearance where I punch brand in the face.
I'm not brand in today. Who the fuck was it responsible at AMC for green
lighting breaking bad? Who had the vision of that show of like,
we're gonna take this nerdy chemistry teacher
and just take him on this journey.
But yeah, and the first season it's like this,
but eventually it gets like outrageous.
It was actually very cautious about it.
Wasn't season one only six episodes?
It was something like those, like six or eight.
Yeah, I think it was super abbreviated.
I'm sure it was obviously just like,
it's a test run, let's see if this one. I'm curious how long it went from pilot to air or a pilot to full season because that pilot is so damn good
Where it starts on him, you know talking to the camera and his underwear and the thing and then he looked yeah
It's just that's such a perfect episode one of a show which set the tone for the whole series really yeah
So great. It's I find most of the time you watch a pilot. It's terrible.
It doesn't match the tone of the rest of the series. It doesn't fit that one. It's like from episode
one from the first frame of that show. It's like being nailed the the tone. Yeah, so I love breaking
that. That's that's my favorite show of this last decade, I would say. The Twitter's read for
R.D. podcast has Brian Carance's character and if you want to pull that up Patrick, it's pretty
fucking funny. I would never shoot Brian Caranth to the play character like that
So I think corrected but Jack one of the big questions people are asking to go back a topic
Okay, how about let's play live is do you know what the ticket pricing is?
I do you want to reveal that at this point?
Uh, probably
Gus do you want to do it? I don't know I don't know if I've topped my head if you know it you're more than welcome to I want to say
VIP is I want to say like 190 and then the floor was like 35 and I want to say are no balcony was like 35 or so and
Floor is like 50 or 60 years. So there's definitely different price points from the price what's spinning on where you are the floor is
Obviously, you know where we're gonna be and stuff you know stuff will be on the floor like I mean the stages right there on the floor
The VIP is like a really really nice balcony just above that with really nice seats. That's got quite a large.
That's where all the other Rishi staff is going to be doing.
The RC staff is going to be hanging out in the VIP area and then after the show is over,
we're going to be hanging out right there and drinking until they kick us out basically.
The top level is the balcony. They all have bars and we're going to have merchandise downstairs.
We have a food truck, is for sure locked in. I haven't heard about that.
I don't know, I thought the, anyway, I guess I'm...
Trinks, that's all that matters.
Anyway, but it was supposed to be a truck?
Yeah, oh, I don't know.
I don't think we've confirmed that 100%.
Okay, yeah, so, I don't know if it was a truck.
Okay, yeah, so we might have some food there for you as well.
But we have definitely a alcohol there.
And then a bunch of merchandise stuff.
IAWIDE is gonna be selling his stuff down there as well.
He's got a little booth selling his CDs,
but we're gonna have, let's play live merchandise
and posters, I think we're working on.
And Ruchititha, a 200 merchandise,
it's like general stuff.
Yeah, yeah, we'll have general stuff as well.
So, but yeah, so anyway.
But I don't know specific ticket prices off top of my head
because they were still sort of adjusting things
based on how many seats we had, but yeah, so there you go, right
around there.
Cool beans.
But yeah, it's good to at least have a range.
Yeah, you don't hold us to those specific amounts.
That's approximately where.
Yeah, yeah, and so, yeah, it's, I mean, it is a live show.
You're getting a lot of entertainment out of this.
It's going to be almost four hours of content with IAID and us up on stage and who knows
how long some of the stuff might run. So, anyway, it's going to be a blast. Patrick, you havenAID and us up on stage and who knows how long some of this stuff might run.
Anyway, it's going to be a blast.
Patrick, you haven't find the picture of the Brian Kranson character.
Oh, from Patrick.
We've got Monster.
Yeah, the Monster.
I've got it right here.
Yeah.
Can you put it up?
I'll see if I can bring it up.
We're actually just going to screen the interview.
That's going to be a good one for us.
Good for you.
That's it.
Oh yeah.
I remember that.
Wow, that thing is awesome.
It looks like Godzilla Cobra. So he's on Easter Island, I remember that. Wow, that thing is awesome. It looks like Godzilla cobra.
So he's on Easter Island I guess?
Oh yeah, who's that corn on the cob?
Oh, Ben Cow.
It looks like corn on the cob.
He does a little bit.
Who looks to look like a hunter, he's got all the serpent's making up his legs.
Is he a prey on own?
I'm really good at eating corn on the cob by the way.
Right about it.
Dude, Katie is like amazing at eating corn on the cob.
How do you know how it's so good at eating corn on the cob?
I don't know how it's so good at eating corn on the cob. How does that look good at eating corn on the cob. How do you know how it's so good at eating corn? I don't know, toe to toe.
How is that what good at eating corn on the cob?
What does that mean?
Have you seen the corn on the cob?
They put out for the squirrels
where it's just like the empty cob.
That's what it looks like if she's done with it.
What I'm done with it, you could cut it in half
and make a pie bottom.
Yeah, the same exact thing.
Yeah, you should probably just eat it.
People don't have a really corn to put it down.
Yeah, do you think what they like?
And they make this stream mushy shit? It's like, no, when I eat corn. It's like all gone pulling the kernels out
Yeah, how do you how do you eat it? Just like a normal way to tell you my fucking secrets
Heart part
Put the whole thing in as like you stripped it out of his mouth. It's like a pop-pink
I
Pulled off both just squeeze it and then it goes in
He fished the same way, but the fish didn't outpull the butt bone. You just squeeze it and then it goes in and it's in your mouth.
You're like, he's clipped.
So I read something the other day that I never realized.
Apparently, that who is it?
Zales, cage rulers, and Jared are all owned by the same company.
Yeah, I fucking hate stuff like that.
I know, it's like, oh, okay, that's why all
their commercials, like all their commercials are stupid and they're selling like all this awful
shit. It's just like three different branches of the same company. Yeah. Yeah. They all
idea marketing. What's that? They all use different markets. Yeah. It's weird when you get
the mall and it's like all three of those stores are the only jewelry stores in the mall and they're
all owned by the same company. Yeah. It's totally like heaven. Have that market cornered.
I saw it on Reddit and then one of the comments was,
oh yeah, I realized this because I used to work for
sales at the mall and they transferred me to Jared.
Really?
That's crazy.
I see even like, shared employees and everything.
I guess so.
He went to Jared.
I was like, that's what I was saying.
That's what I was saying.
Someone tried to turn over
Where's Billy you went to Jared never to return
I used to work at a store called the Houston trunk factory in Houston and then I got transferred to a bag and baggage It was oh you're a big luggage guy. I remember that. That's my first one of my first jobs was some luggage
Yeah, was there a Houston trunk factory in the gallery? There was.
Yeah, I was like, I think that was the main one.
It's awesome.
There's a bag and baggage in the mall here.
It looks like it was like from 1980.
It hasn't changed.
I, my luggage broke at the worst time possible.
Uh-oh.
When we were overseas, we had just landed in Brisbane.
We literally landed in natural disaster.
I wonder if you heard us talk about that.
Yeah, the hail.
I got off the plane, got my bag off of the belt and then one of the wheels did that thing or just stop rolling
And it's like I was walking through the airport leaving a black streak
Sidewalk behind me and it's just making that awful squeaking sound like
Fucker I'm just gonna say it was a big bag. Yeah, it was one of the big bags that happened to me at PAX prime
When we went out there actually I went with Esther to buy my new luggage
So yeah, oddly enough, maybe it maybe it's her doing it. No, they might my luggage came out
My luggage came out of the carousel and they put the wheel next to it like it like the wheel like the wheel by itself
And then my luggage was like oh
No, I know I know at least his is still I'm sorry you're scared yeah
I might my literally so decided to carry my ass.
That's way worse.
Damn, and so.
But the new luggage I've had it since,
and then I bought the other luggage to match it,
because it's a really good piece of luggage.
I feel like it's a scam every time I buy a piece of luggage.
We were talking about gifts,
and my parents for graduation gave me a luggage.
Oh, really?
Because that was a bad message of life.
You had to get the fuck, get all your stuff put in this and leave.
You can only take what you can fit into this one bag.
Yeah.
And then you're out.
You have 30 seconds.
Yeah.
So that was kind of a rough deal.
So I would ever hear about luggage as like getting you luggage.
Like that I was thinking about like my parents gave me a luggage.
Oh.
And then you were for a luggage store.
No, I worked with a luggage store. No, I
worked with a luggage store before I was in high school. Yeah,
so they knew over your passion for a luggage work for a
luggage store before you were in high school. No, before that
it was when I was in high school. Yeah, so before I graduated
and I worked at a sub shop and then I worked at the luggage
place. We're at a bloopy, right? I went to work. I didn't
went to work at bloopy. Then I went to work in babbages and
then went from babbages to bag and bag. It's in Babbage? It was like eBegames.
Or like GameStop.
I guess eBegames doesn't exist in the US anymore either.
I applied to work at a movie theater when I was like 15 ready to work and they put me
in the Burger King in the movie theater.
And I was like, great, I'm so happy I applied at the movie theater to work in fast food.
Super.
I was there for three years.
Really? I know how to make a mean
wapper. Do you? Do you want to make a nice wapper? If I would
do Burger King, you know what I would do all the time? If I worked
at Burger King, I would go up to where they make the fries. And
when there's fries in it, I put one on your each one.
That's the best thing that ever happens to me that Burger King is
when I got fries and it's like the one on your, you're like,
wait, this is come from all right. See you're not in
rain. Take a bonus. I would get it all day long. I would do King is when I got fries and it's like the one on your you like wait just come from all right see you're not in great I'm gonna
I would get all day long I would get all day long I just be spreading joy to everybody have you seen all these weird commercials
The Burger King has where they brought back a sandwich that they used to sell in the semifaces
Yeah, and they had that weird like fake commercial where it's like all the you know everyone's dressed up and like period pieces and stuff the
Yombo. Yeah, how do you see so many commercials? Yeah.
Do you have cable?
Yeah.
What do you watch?
What do you watch?
I watch it.
You're like encountering commercials.
I mainly watch The Simpsons.
Barb no cable.
I don't have cable.
No.
You had to watch anything.
Online.
Hulu and Netflix.
What about you?
Hulu and Netflix.
Yeah.
And HBO go.
I don't have cable anymore.
And even before I got rid of my cable, the only thing I ever watched on it was I came with drones.
Yeah, that was it.
Yeah, I only watched the Simpsons and football.
That's it, and I was like, I don't need to be paying $100 a month or whatever.
Yeah, that was the one.
You're gonna be able to catch America football?
Yeah.
Really?
Cutting cable, like losing sports, that was the big thing.
Yeah, because it's not that something just online.
Yeah, but even now, like ESPN streams, Monday football and then there are the NBC streams Sunday night footballs
Yeah, yeah for free online. Oh snap. So you can if you have an Apple TV you can watch ESPN
I stop watching sports like I don't even pay attention. I'm big in the sports actually
I like my fantasy football seasons wrapping up actually right now as we speak I have the the Denver running back going and then I
This is super nerdy, but I did really good in fantasy football,
made it some playoffs,
and then I won my first round of playoffs of three weeks.
I won my first round, and I went to the final four,
and if you win, you win like 500 bucks.
Oh, it's significant.
I had my worst, of my, I had my third worst week,
and then I'm having my worst week ever.
Like in the last two games, I had my third and worst back.
Sorry, dude. And so I lost my, I lost the, you know, the quarter final or the final four, and now I'm gonna my worst week ever like in the last two games. I had my third and worst back. Sorry dude And so I lost my I lost the you know the quarter final or the final four and now I'm gonna lose the four
So I'm gonna come in fourth place after just team rolling my way and losing
So Aaron Rogers just fucked me this last couple weeks. Fuck you Aaron Rogers
Mark Murray on hurt to who was the guy who just did the interview the post game interview where he didn't say anything
But thanks for asking oh no, he said yeah, that uh that was uh what beast mode beast mode yeah uh martial
on lynch martial on lynch yeah holy said was yeah no he did a new one today where all he said
was thanks for asking oh really like I guess it was today here you get fine a hundred thousand
dollars for saying yeah to every question he was super polite now yeah like they said uh they said
uh they said you had a big long run can you talk about it because thank you for asking about
that thank you did you see that the question you. Did you see the next one?
I was just dumb because I want to thank you for asking about my how my stuff
That's awesome. How do you get fine for cuz they have they have obligations
They have to fulfill is with media sports entertainment yet
But then like Richard Sherman came out like asking me saw that yeah
Yeah, he came out afterwards with this the is cardboard cut out of his buddy who was all like a one other wide receiver or something
Yeah, and they basically just shit on everything.
Like you couldn't talk, he's like, I would love to talk about this, you know, like these headphones that I love, but I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'd be more interest about concussions and their health, but no, we're going out there and
playing another game four days after our last one.
Yep.
And so it's and then we'll expand our our season to another two
more games and expand the playoffs.
Explain this to me.
So this was a guy who came out was upset about the NFL,
upset about the sponsorship stuff.
And upset about the treatment of the play.
Well, he was a rich at Sherman and he brought a cardboard cut
out of a teammate, Doug Baldwin.
And he had a conversation with the cardboard cutout.
I see.
Yeah and Doug Baldwin was hiding behind his cardboard cutout of himself responding.
Oh, because yeah, so he was asking questions and it was just like, it's really fucking funny.
Yeah, and it's really well done.
It's like, man, it's really biting and.
Yeah, Richard Sherman, he's a smart dude.
He's a super smart dude.
But that was that he came out and did that after the the whole thing with
March on Lynch where he got fined. He's like, oh, okay, I'm gonna find him for that. And I'll show you how to do it interview and then he went on to that.
Wow. Damn, that's intense.
But yeah, anyway, that's our sports talk. That's our sports talk.
If I did a fantasy football thing here in the office, what do you join it?
I joined it once, didn't I? I think we had a free one. I want to do one next year because I forget there's
enough of us here now that I think we get 12 or 14 people. I think we did it
were like 10 of us. Yeah, yeah, so you want to do it? Fuck no.
Fuck your hate fantasy football. That's why you literally turned away from you.
That's us. You and I will dress up as a wizards and play football.
No, that'll be our fantasy football. I just I think fantasy football. I don't even like fucking
spreads. What if we did Patrick's in there? Patrick's in there. What if we did a fantasy football I don't even like fucking spreads what if we what if we did Patrick's in there
We did a fantasy football show where like we had like a five-minute update once a week and just put it up on life
Filmed here we talk about what happened in our league put it up online and we have like sponsors
Boom sponsors every week. There's like you get we give a prize away to whoever scored the most points that week
Sponsored by you know whoever like someone gets you know a free mattress whoever gets the high school
That sounds awesome
Where's Alan? I'm on a roll. Let's do this. This is gonna be awesome. If there's one
Audience that I picked that is so everyone's a fucking expert. It's the goddamn fantasy football. Absolutely
Anything you guys say you guys we get blasted who cares?
You'd be like chargers won this week. It's a game fucking win
The wind was blowing like they scored more points. Nope. All right historically. They didn't win RT
RT fantasy football next season starting next August
Shit
I guess was leaking. R.T.
That's me. And you gotta say it that way every time. R.T.
Welcome, Narks.
We're gonna talk about Tony Romo, his impact on his cowboys on R.T. All right, well, I hate to say it, but it's about time to wrap up.
Let me see one more question here.
Oh, God.
Someone made an inspirational quote. The hardest part about eating corn on the cob is knowing where to start
It's so true
That's how you want to end the block No, no, a hundred thousand dollars for not talking to the press and then next
We all it is we say yes, or yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. Yeah, that makes sense
That makes more sense and people are thankful for your great questions
Yes, Barbara, there's a lot of people tweeting outside that photos with you. That's kind of interesting
Wait, what a lot of people with photos with you like I've noticed like a trend like some of the most of the people that I've read tweets from
I did you're in their photo with them. That's why they're watching the podcast podcast I guess so I see yeah looking at for number one, but rather a dunkelman
Okay, all right all right. I can sell tomorrow three o'clock central standard time or just to their own sale Tuesday
