Twisted metal, streaming now, only on peacock Hey everybody and welcome to this very special edition of the Ruchis Podcast brought to you by Casper and Squarespace. Thank you as always for your support.

Today we have a very special guest on the podcast. It's Mr. Gavin Frey. Oh, thank you. Well, it's famous filmmaker right here. Well, in addition, this is Bernie. And in addition to Mr. Gavin Frey and Ms. Barbara Duncan- Hello. We have our Austin neighbor and filmmaking legend, Mr. Robert Rodriguez. Hello there. How's it going Robert? Excellent man.

So I don't think a lot of people know this, but you were actually in this building before we were in stage five. You guys had a production going on here. We're shooting Dust Holdon, actually both seasons, season one and two. A lot of killings happened right here. Right here in this bar, we're all sitting. That way there was so much blood on top of some of our offices. You live when you walked in here.

Yeah, so the offices that we have for live action and for the tech office, and I think your office, you know, they were motelsets. Yeah, it was an interior motelset that we built and we just left them up and you guys were very smart. Yeah, with a nice paneling. We like to reuse everything here in Austin, like the Cormin's, put the sets aside, reuse them and you guys used them to a great effect, make these amazing offices.

I was going, please do that. I was all amazing. Hey, listen, he says it's amazing. It's amazing. It's amazing, it's amazing. And what they were. But also, I mean, we've talked about this on the podcast before, Matt and I, who we started this company

in the spare bedroom in Buda back in 2003. But even before that, we got involved in feature filmmaking in the independent film world of the 90s, which is really the tone of that was set by you and Tarantino and Kevin Smith, people like that. And you were a particular inspiration for us because you were a couple years ahead of us at UT. And you made Elmerianti for $7,000. Yeah, and a summer break while I was at UT. Down in Mexico. Yeah, on film. My favorite part of that story too is how you funded, how did you get that $7,000? Well, you were here at that time and you remember that place called pharmacology.

I do. That's how most of us paid for college. She was a place where you would go test, do medical testing for money, usually pay off like a credit card bill or something. You'd make like $500 bucks in a weekend or the one I did was $3,000 over a period of two weeks. But no, it was a month, it was a whole month in there. But I wrote the script while I was in there and some of the guys that were near me

kind of looked like they could be bad guys. I cast them in the movie and I made $3,000, $3,500 in there. And you know that, and I read just recently that the drug that you were testing turned out to be lipitor. It was lipitor. It was a cholesterol-lowering drug. Where some of the other groups that are in there are on low fat diets.

We got to eat bacon and also we had the best diet and they were there with our lettuce. We had a great deal. Yeah, it sounds like it. Well, I did that as well, but I did just get my wisdom teeth removed because I couldn't afford it. They did a test where they were not using any kind of anesthetic for removing wisdom teeth. Like they didn't give you anything like any opiates afterwards. They just gave me ibuprofen. You say that like it's such a casual thing. Like I had the wisdom teeth out. No anesthetic. That must have

killed. Yeah. It wasn't like a worst pain in your life. They still gave me like a shot in the mouth, but they didn't like knock me out. So they numbed your gums. Yeah. They didn't give me anesthesia, you know, they didn't like they didn't like knock me out. So they numbed your gums. Yeah, they didn't give me anesthesia, you know, they didn't like they didn't completely knock me out, but of course they numbed. It's like a movie like a western where they're decking me in the face. You made it sound like they were just pulling a teeth out and it's like jamming Advil in the hole. You see what a Roberts movie.

Gavin, I had a really fun time. You invited this over to Trouble Maker Studios, which is right next door. Awesome, cool complex. We got to see some cool stuff. Yeah, we did. We got to see some really cool stuff. In fact, one of the things we got to see is I'm kind of on the podcast, kind of known a little bit for wearing different socks.

And one of my favorite brand of socks is Happy Socks. Yeah. And you showed us this thing that you were doing, and you did it for Happy Socks. Yeah, I made a short film for them, for the internet. They asked me to do something, be creative with socks, and you would to design socks and I was like, oh that's awesome. And what I did was I timed it to when we were shooting Dust Tildon. So it's online now, they just released it. And it's cool, it ended up being a six minute film, it's a two minute film because we got ambitious. And it's badass, it's action, it's horror, and it's shot all in my parking lot.

But since we had the access of the crew and the cast from Dust Tildon, there's cool stunts and things we never could have afforded with their commercial. They let me design pair socks. Oh my god. So I've got a set of Robert Rodriguez vampire socks that I released for Halloween. You're leaving those here, right? That's available. That's three pairs. All right. There's three pairs. So I'm going to use them as a weapon just like in the... Yeah, and you'll see how she uses them as a weapon. But I like really, you know, sometimes, you know, attaching with brands and doing something really creative with the brand to make you feel good about the brand. But ultimately, it's about entertainment.

So when you watch it, it's just a cool little film. And I love short film formats. It's just something where you can show someone and immediately want to watch it again because it's fun. Yeah, it's crazy to think how much has changed, too, since you started. I mean, Elmer, was that Sean on 16? 16 millimeter.

So it's like, now it's like the camera that you carry around in your pocket is a better camera than you were probably scrapping to get back in those days. Yeah, I mean, I tell people by shot the same movie today it would probably be like a $700 movie, not a $7,000. Most of that budget went to the majority of the budget went to film buying the film process and it transferred it to video. So yeah, you could shoot the same movie for for nothing. How many crew were on that? I was the whole crew. Oh yeah I was one man crew. I was the sound guy, I was the camera guy, I was the lighting guy, because I didn't know if I could sell it, so I didn't want to spend more,

it was already a lot costing years to do it, and I knew kind of what I could do to spend myself. So is it hard going from one man crew to then giving all those responsibilities to other people? Or is it just a load off your mind? Well that's why I still do a lot of jobs myself. I actually ended up enjoying those. So I still, right, produced direct, edit, operate the camera, I do the sound mix, I do the score. I mean, I still do a lot of those jobs

because I discovered that on the first one that it was just so fun. And now I think a lot more, it's a lot more relatable to people today. I was on that new age where I was coming in, I learned on video, learned on digital, and then I shot film, and I applied what I learned on digital to film, which was just do it yourself. You know, so many people today now shoot that way because they shoot

digital. But that was unheard of in the film world to do it that way. You always needed like 200 people. I'm just imagining you as like one of those one person bands with like the camera and one, the boom and the other and just like all this equipment attached to you while you're filming this movie. I still have to shoot that way. I mean, the happy socks was done that way. I mean, I was literally doing all the jobs because it's, you move so fast and it's so fun. And next year I'm going to do another movie for $7,000. There's a 25th anniversary. Only this time we'll have a documentary crew filming it. They'll have more money and more equipment. But it's to show how you would do it today. Right.

And make a feature film out of it. Yeah, I remember seeing promotional stills, I think from, I think it was probably Desperado and you were in a steady camera egg. And here's a director who's right up with steady cam. Yeah, we're running a full steady camera egg. And I just read, you asked a question like who was on the crew, his autobiography that I read

was Rebel Without a Crew. And that's the, that's the whole point of it. And so I just read Elon Musk's autobiography, not autobiography, his biography as well. And they talk about him in that how he'll do that. He'll do just about any job in the company, which is kind of threatening to a lot of those engineers, but he'll do their job and do it better than they will because he can just absorb so much information.

Yeah, and sometimes it's more of a subjective thing. It's not really that you're better than them, but you know the material better than they do. You will just have a very particular eye towards it, because it's so subjective. And then also I couldn't afford to hire anybody, so I didn't do the moment. Yeah, it's crazy to think too.

It's like you wouldn't even need to go through the pharmacok thing today, because you would just do crowdfunding, probably, again. Yeah, you do crowdfunding, or if you really wanted to just pay for it yourself, you didn't have to spend anything. So I think what I'm gonna show next year when I do it is show that sometimes limitations are good.

Like you've only got seven props and you've got to make a feature out of this and that. You know, really by limiting yourself, it's almost more freeing because when you can do anything, the big question becomes, what do we even do now we can do anything? But if you limit yourself,

and it's almost like within those walls, like create, you almost like the freedom of limitations happens. You can almost blow up within those confines. That's what's really fun about it. That's amazing here to say that. That's exactly what I would talk about with our animator, Monty Ome, who created Ruby, is with Red versus Blue, we were limited to what was in that world.

That was it. How do you make a Jeep funny? How do you make a Skull Funny? It's like, you just have to, because it's all you have to. You have to, and you actually just focus on that, and you come up with a solution, because you're limiting your focus. Yeah, but you're working on things now that are,

I mean, you're running an entire network. You're running the L-Ray network now. Yeah, but it's a matter of scale, not technique. It's the same technique, but you're just doing it. You're only really just scaling up. You really, like you have rooster teeth. It's like you create a beast, and then you gotta feed the beast.

The beast consumes you. And by creating for that beast, you actually come up with things that you never would have done otherwise. And you're really proud of, like our network, we had to fill it. I got a network, I own a network, but it's empty until you fill it.

So we had to fill it with from Dust Holdon. I had to come up with a show called The Directors Chair and call you know, Lucha Underground and you just start filling it up and then you're so proud of these shows and so proud of the content. Just like, this proud as you all or anything that you've come up with,

it was because you had this destination that you had to fill. So I would suggest to anybody who wants to go create, create a beast first, then feed the beast. There you go. Just to learn like service it. Just creating motivation for yourself with like the crowdfunding for a laser team. A lot of that meant when now we have to make the movie.

Yeah, you get populated, right? You're like, I'm all in. We have the money. Yeah, we have to go do it now. And people away for it. So let's go make it. Yeah, it's cool. Yeah, you wouldn't have that kind of heavy leverage on yourself otherwise.

You know, right to that point. Otherwise, you can just sit there and you'd launch stuff and move on forever. You'll never get it out yourself otherwise, you know? Right. To that point. Otherwise, you can just sit there and you would want stuff, you know, you'll never get it out. Yeah. You have to give yourself down. We have air dates. We have to, we have to deliver a certain amount.

And so you have to come up with stuff. And you do. And you're always surprised when you look back and go, look all this stuff we made this year. And this was the first time you'd ever worked in TV as a whole, right? Yeah. Yeah. I'd wanted to get in a TV, but the process was always so difficult, to get a show

on the air, on a network, it seemed like everybody was trying to do that. Whenever there's so much competition, you just got to think bigger, have your own network, have your own destination for people to go. There's very few people competing at that level. So then you end up with a network and then you go and you fill it up with whatever you want, which is exciting. The L-Ray network is kind of like Comic Con TV. I mean it's got everything cool that you could possibly put on a network and you'd license old movies and series that you

that you love and curate them and then you fill out the rest of it with original programming. So that's how you get a 24-7 network you know that quick is just what do I love and let's just put that on the network and make it authentic. And I love directors chair. It's where Robert sits down and interviews another director and he said like Quentin Tarantino on there. He's had Francis Coppola, John Carpenter, Michael Mann, George Malair, Fury Road, and it's great. What's cool is you know, interview for like three hours and then I cut it down to 45 minutes. So you get only just the best of tons of information like master class. I learned so much master class has been filmmaking and I have one that the most proud of is been friends with Stallone for a long time because people kind of forget he writes directs

edits comes up with these characters. You won best picture versus Star Wars with Rocky. And he was he's the, it's a really inspiring. Anybody who watches it, you're gonna feel like you can go climb a mountain afterwards. It's really cool. That comes out November 15th. November 15th, and it'll be on L-R. Yeah, so it'll be in the end.

So, any of our shows are also available, digital downloads, like iTunes and Amazon, all that the next day. Okay, and the L-R network, you were telling me before this, it's in 40 million homes. We're in 40 million homes now. I like the one of the fastest growing networks, independent networks. And most people probably don't even realize they already have us.

So just go check your dial. You're at an uncomcast time-warner, direct TV, sling TV, a bunch of different direct TV. Just about all the carriers have us. And I'm sure like 35 million of them don't know they already have us. Yeah, and if you don't have it at your cable, if you're not listening even from within the United States, you can always give it off iTunes or some other places.

You can get a program in you. It's available digital online. So I want to talk a little bit about dusk. So how did you settle on Dustal Dawn as being the thing that you wanted to bring to a TV series? Well, most of the new networks don't even have new programs for the first five, sometimes 10, sometimes like in the case of AMC 20 years.

Right. So it was really unusual to have a new network and have programming. But I thought that's what really differentiates is the work creators. Let's have original programming right off the bat. First year, and then they mean to have a premier show. So to choose a sort of premier show that would have a sizable

budget that would really compete with other networks, I thought, you know, Dustel Don is just like a no brainer. People still love that movie, Quentin and I get asked, anywhere where you go, people go, Dustel Don, we love Dustel Don, we love Dustel Don. Very enduring classic, cult classic film. So I thought that had such a, you know, Mesoamerican feel, I very, very much fit the idea of the network itself. I thought that would be cool to continue. And I'd added some mythology to the movie that I didn't really explore, the whole temple

and all that was added to the script. So I thought, let's go deep into that and really figure out how to expand those characters and expand that world. So all of season one was an expansion of Quentin's original script, retoold in a way that would set it up for future seasons. And now we're at the season finale tomorrow for the second season. Yeah, so that's tomorrow night. I directed that one. There'll be Tuesday night and it's at 9 p.m. Eastern.

And you directed this one. Yeah, I directed the first one of this season and the finale, which is a blowout. It's like a lot of the dust-told-on magic from the film is in this one. There's even a seven-minute sequence of my band playing a song as a slaughter happens, and they're almost like scoring it. For seven minutes, it's just this kind of thing. I don't think we could have even pulled off in the film, but it's just when you got a crew and people that worked on it. Now in our second season and all fire and all cylinders, it's the kind of thing you don't even see in television or actually even in features It's really choreographed in a way that's pretty exciting. I'm most proud of that episode

Yeah, we worked on a on our movie laser team We worked with some people that you've worked with before we worked with make a barsting Jenny Lynn. Oh, yeah, Jenny Yeah, we saw her stuff and she had these big tubs. Oh check around the happy socks. She gets she gets Short and she gets Jenny Lynn I was really set to see Jenny happy socks. She gets, she gets. Yeah, she was going to say she's going to have to get to the short and she gets to the line of Jenny Lynn. I was really satsy Jenny Lynn. I really get one line out. Well, you know, more than usually make a part of skeds. Usually. But yeah, she, she had these tubs and we're like, what is that? She goes, oh, that's for when I work on dust. That's for all my blood. So that's why there's blood in your office now. There's blood stains on our ceilings in the office.

I've always wondered about, but now that's planted. So the finale for season two is tomorrow, but you guys also just announced that season three has been green-leaded for just one of those things where you know it's always kind of difficult to get out of a network. You know are we going to be green-lit for another season? But at L. Ray, it's pretty much, I go, Robert, what do you think? Should we be new for another season?

And then I go sit on that seat. I think that would be really good. You should do that with directist chair as well. You should just split screen yourself in the other chair. I was thinking somebody else told me that. They said, you should interview yourself without that really kind of fun.

If I'm dressed like this is the interviewer and then the cowboy hat and the As the director and talk really one's Bob one's Robert or just gather the whole staff walk out of the room and go Sorry, it's a no conversation really would south really quickly So if you guys are shooting season three pretty soon I just want to point out we're not that far away from you if you ever need like victims or vampires I've already been you know seeing everybody around here has been working long hours. It looked like vampire. Yeah, I'm going to be

needing makeup. Super slow. Yeah, super slow. Right here. Or if you need a woman's scream. Well, we need to be. Yeah, let's get a point at Bernie. But install the joke. Sorry, but the, but so you're gonna be shooting that I assume fairly soon. You'll be sure you're writing room and then you know, sometime next year we'll be shooting that. Right around here. We'll be right around here. I heard it.

Is it hard to balance this with the other projects as well? Because I read, I don't know if it's a rumor, but I read a report that you're gonna be working with James Cameron on Battle Angel, Alita. Battle Angel. Yeah, I've been talking with Jim for years and years and years. I've known him about 18 years or more. And we've always tried to find something to do together.

So we're in talks to do a project called Battle Angel. Ken's a more than that, but no, it's totally exciting. He's the master. Yeah, yeah. Nothing else. I'll get a really great maybe three-parter director's chair out of that. You think Jane Cameron will be able to talk about it?

Will be making for a little while? I bet. Whenever we get together, we talk hours and hours go by just talking about this stuff. I wish I had captured it. So I'm just accidentally when I record the definitive version of it. That's kind of what the directors chair is. I've had so many great conversations with these filmmakers over the years. I wish somebody was taping this because they say such amazing things that I know filmmakers would be blown away by and really I can get it super inspired by them.

And this has been a chance for me to go recreate some of those conversations. And I'm so happy I always get the same energy and the same stories that I've known for over the years. So that's what I'm most looking forward to is going back. Getting all these guys I've had talks with and recording it for people to see. Yeah, well that's gonna be great The the if you do it with James Cameron though He'll probably make you interview him like on a submarine at the bottom of the ocean One of his big adventure excursions. I also remember that a Guillermo tutorial with somebody you interviewed in director

Share this fantastic one. Yeah, that's a really good. Yeah, okay. Well The dust till dawn season finale for season two. Check it out Tuesday night. It is awesome. L Ray network. Rob, I just want to say if you know you've got this whole network. If you ever need shows, I know a place that has a bunch of different shows. Oh, I was thinking about it. We should talk about that because yeah, we do. We do need programming and you guys make really terrific program. And I was a fan of you guys back when you were back in Buda. Oh, no, you should have rockets a fan too. My son rocket, of course, love. Oh, wow. Red versus blue. That was the best when your kids come up and go,

have you ever heard of red versus blue? And I'm like, oh, man, way before you, you ever knew about it, my son. Such a hipster. No, I don't know. Well, listen to what, thank our guests and our neighbor, Mr. Robert Rodriguez. Thank you for everything you've done for the awesome film scene.

Thank you for all the wonderful films you've made. Thank you, you guys. And it's great to have you as neighbor. Thanks for all the inspiration that you've done for the awesome film scene, thank you for all the wonderful films you've made. Thank you guys. And it's great to have you as a neighbor. Thanks for all the inspiration that you've given us as well. And let's leave them with a clip from Dustel Dawn season 2. How about we show the trailer for that? At Rodriguez. At Rodriguez.

I am simply here for what is mine. Something's coming. I can't feel it. Stick a fork in them. They're done. Where the Jaskin started? Every lawman is still out there looking for the Geggos. If we are gonna fight this war, we have to let go of who we were

To become who we are You the show girl. I think she's gonna take down an empire. No Just gonna kill me in there You and your brother It's they separated You go around burning bridges. You're gonna end up all alone on an island. I didn't know where you were, King. That will often.

This is my empire. My empire of blood. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go.

I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. I'm gonna have to go. Sun goes down, and gets busy. Send him to hell, baby. That's the whole thing. That was near. I'll put on this octave. Welcome back.

Welcome back everybody. Mr. Robert, if you were tuning in, was joining us for the first part of the podcast. We talked to him about Elmeriace, everything from Elmeriace, all the way to the new network that he's running L-Ray. And Happy Socks. And Happy, give me those. I saw them go by and I was like,

I gotta get a pair of these things. So I'm gonna swap them out right now. So I have the ones with the teeth. I'll do it during the, when we play another video clip. You don't want to, you'll, you'll foot on the camera. Oh, so they're all different designs. Yeah. Oh, I see. You get these by default. Oh, I see you get these by default here

Let me do a swap. We see got a mix and match that's how it works because they color match but then they're different I think someone listen take a plate of this set without him there and Cut that into when he was here. So it just looks like we're talking to him to chair You mean right now kind of an earlier Yeah, well listen I just want to say so Robert's not here anymore but if you want to find out more about what robert regeez is up to and what he's doing you can always follow him on twitter at

rod regez somehow we got the need for that he said nobody else had had it when he joined to it or i find it suspect personally i don't know how he did that yeah but that was i mean uh... you know like i said during the interview too is that He was a huge inspiration to me and Matt, you know me in particular actually Matt's first job at a school was Working for Robert on the faculty. Well when we went to troublemaker We saw Matt in one of the pictures on the wall from like a big crew photo Matt's little face wouldn't it be cool

If Matt was interviewed on that show the directors chair chair? Yeah, it would be. Full circle. Full circle. Real full circle. Well, instead of it said we went to the way we interviewed him. Yeah. That's the way this would go. So hey guys, what's up? Sorry.

No gust today. We got no gust. I like how they changed the shot. We're going gustless. Oh, look at this. They have a three person shot. That's what it looks. That looks offset.

Look at that. That is not symmetrical. That looks like a great shot. Personally, it's great. Anything that allows me out. So I want to run this headline. That's a huge compared to you guys. Well, you're in front.

I saw the most amazing headline and I rode down and I want to see what you take from this headline. I want to see if you understand it. You ready? No, you can catch my breath. Okay, go. You can take it. All you have to do is tell me what the story is about.

Yeah. Wait, are we is this a competition between Bernie and I? It's about James Cameron in the summary. Yeah, you can buzz in maybe. Okay, you ready? Man fails paternity test because the father of his son is his unborn brother. Oh, I can tell exactly what this is. I got it's got to totally figured out. But fails. What? He failed the paternity test meaning his unborn brother was the father. So here's what it is. The guy was a twin in the womb.

The twin died. Then it became what they call a parasitic twin which is actually the opposite where the living twin takes over and embeds the dead twin in it somewhere. And I'm pointing to my arm, I'll tell you this in a second. But then they took a genetic test for the guy, but he has at different places in his body, he has different genetics. Yeah. Is there a twin thing in his penis? Wasn't his penis.

So apparently the jeans, the DNA in his sperm was completely different to the DNA or jeans in his saliva. So he failed his own paternity test. So because his unborn twins, genes, were passed onto his child in the majority. He would make a killing on more. I'm not worried. I'm worried. Why just knocking chicks out?

You are not the father every time. Well, let me ask you this question, Gavin. Here's a fundamental philosophical question for you. If you have different DNA in your saliva and your testicles Which is your DNA just answer got question testicles. Yeah, right I am my testicles So you think somehow to get sample of DNA from your brain and that was different your testicles you're still going with testicles Can you light pull DNA from the brain hole? Let's assume you can't I don't even know if you could or not I mean they did not I would say brain outranks testicles, but testicles outranked mouth

Which part of you is what is naval? I mean this is gonna be a chart that someone like naval fluff. No, just naval just your naval like say they scrape it out of there I would say that's last dead last right? I say although that's where your milk or cord We're just out of there. I would say that's last. Dead last, right? I'd say. Although, that's where you're in a local court. We're just ranking body parts at this point. I'd say pinky is the lowest. Pinky finger. Why pinky, why not some?

So I wonder if that's ever happened in a crime where they're like some awful boss that killed someone. Get that pinky DNA. But the DNA didn't match, because they took it from a different part of it. No, that's actually, I read a story about that just the other day where there was some kind of crime. I wanna say it was a robbery though, and it wasn't like a murder or something like that.

And they had genetic DNA proof that it was one of these two twins, and this one twin was like, a bad dude and this twin wasn't. But because the DNA was the only evidence they had, they couldn't prove definitively which one of them committed the crime, so he was found innocent. No way! Because so just having a twin got this guy off. Wow.

So is that better than just Barbara, that was not sexual getting off. Come on. Animal. Barbara immediately started laughing about that. So is it okay that they were both free? We were, by the way, weren't we kept it really professional or a robber was here and I appreciate both of you for that I tried there was some parts where I wanted to say something But I was like I wanted to sneeze the entire time and I didn't this chair feels empty

Why don't you let's get somebody up here John come here and talk to us Do you think that I'll talk to Robert Rodriguez? farting during that time would have been like the most inappropriate embarrassing time to I think he's since humor runs pretty wide. I mean it's yeah like some of the stuff in spy kids is I love spy kids. Pretty raucous you know and of course Gavin he's your Gavin I just this I think it's from a movie he released it was from machete that one clip that he put together were with the cutting off

that yeah yeah that's he was lun with the cutting off the head. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what it's about. It's just that scene was lunacy. Yeah. And he's talking about chucking head. So it's realistic. Hey, John. Hi, John. Hey, how are you doing? Is he in the shot?

Bernie Burns. He looked like, hey, flashy as hell today. He walked to school. What's the word you used earlier? I called him a flashy kid. There you go. He came in like that wearing, wearing sunglasses. I don't know.

Me right here. He was wearing sunglasses. Head up and like, just strut. Like, I'm John Ryan's. I know. I'm blazing up with sunspots. Wearing side of me right here. He was wearing sunglasses head up unlike the strut I'm blazing up with suns back Strutting my life, but thank you was strutting hot. I was strutting hard. I said that you look dapper dapper what I said Thank you So John talk to me about this because you're mr. Comics. I am mr. Comics So John talked to me about this because you're mr. Comics. I am mr. Comics

So I read about this project the Cameron and Rodriguez are gonna work on called battle angel Alita Yeah, I'm hoping pronouncing that correctly. Yeah. What is that? It's a it's a manga. Say say manga. You know say manga manga Of rise manga Cheers me Farrah was just hanging there. Yeah, it's a manga from like the 90s look at Robert's I&DB Look at this. Why do you have a screen? John? Yeah, I brought to you You're reading a paper I think I wanted the note You can literally pull it up on your phone right now You can go check a website printed on the top of a screen that displays the website

Pretty is right here. I'll stack it right here. It's like my Yeah, yeah, I don't sound date probably I had to bring it to covers screen that just placed the website. Fairies right here. I'll stack it right here. It's like my girlfriend. She's she. Yeah. And it's out date probably. I had to bring it. Look at the covers. The covers five screens is freaking on MDB as a director. He's got like 12 free shots.

You're giving a whole bunch of things. Yeah. No, it's fine. We're getting. Do you have any emails as well printed out? It's too funny. Jackass. All right.

Just tell me about this battle angel lead in all this time. It's like this futuristic world that's like setting like where like cyborgs and monsters like run around. It's about like this cybernetics doctor who finds like parts of like an old cyborg model and then restores it and that's like a lead. She's like this cyborg robot and turns out she does have any memory and then like within like the first issue of the manga she shows that she can like she remembers this very elite kind of fighting style. And so then it's like her finding herself as like becoming a bounty hunter

of these other monsters and and that kind of thing. But I mean it's it reading that and like thinking about like Roberts like working like on synced city and stuff. I mean, it's shit. Reading that and like thinking about like, Robert's like working like on Sincidian stuff, I mean, I'd be down with something like that. It was something that James Cameron was supposed to, he had the rights for it forever. And then he just, he just hasn't had time to do it. And he wants to work on like, I guess people are saying he can't do it because he's got to work

on the Avatar's Equal or Trilogy. And so he's- Dude, a trilogy, huh? That's what it is, that's the news. You know, it's what the trilogy's like. Avatar news like changes like every week. No, that's just the one. I don't know what else I can do.

I'm just gonna do a prequel to Titanic, which is like a robot. One for dad. Hang out, Matt. Well, that sounds, I mean, it's like, the way you're describing it, it's like very strong female lead character, which I think Cameron does really well. Like it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like the way you're describing it. It's like very strong female lead character, which I think Cameron does really well.

Like it's a, it's like, it's like, it's like one of those really futuristic worlds, like fifth element, AI, that kind of like world. Aeon flux? Yeah, well, does not say that. Um, we don't need to, we don't need to group that together with the potential project of Robert.

Why are you hating on Aeon flux? Because it's a horrible movie. Aeon flux? It's back from a really cool Thing on a MTV called liquid television and then they made it into a Charlize Theron live-action movie It's like some woman with black hair It's the cartoon you see the cartoon John the animation. It's just I'm sure you can find online now It's freaky as fuck. What's it? Yeah, it's shit. It's's just freaky like there's the whole show starts with the intro where the fly

Like walking and then a Venus flytrap catches it But then you realize it's not a Venus flytrap. It's a lady's eyelashes and then her eye like rolls around to look at it Like her eye was in the back of her head and it's just like that's that's the intros make me uneasy Yeah, that's the intro to a on flux Yeah, it's like one of these it's like one of these worlds where like the way that what I read James Cameron didn't want to do is because he wanted for technology to catch up where he could actually like create this world. It's going to be live action, but like, like Avatar is live action.

That's not so as a director who has the right to something, but is waiting for technology to be to the point where he can make it. Didn't he say that about Avatar? Like he had Avatar in the waiting for like a decade. Yeah. I wonder if an Avatar like, when I saw, I mean, I saw Jurassic Park just recently,

holds up perfectly fine. Yeah, after all this time. Terminator 2, which was about the same timeframe as Jurassic Park, was seen revolutionary at the time too, but it also doesn't quite hold up as well. The T1000. The T1000 one. Yeah.

And, you know what doesn't hold up? Terminator one, where he suddenly turns into a stop motion animated like a stick thing like walking like this. The weirdest thing to me about the terminus is franchise. Together like that. The stuff must and other things. The weirdest thing about the terminus franchise is that they literally spoiled the movies in every single trailer for that franchise. Right. Even the newest one. Even the newest one. Like Terminero 2 was like the biggest spoiler ever.

They gave away the big twists in the movie. What was the twist they gave away? The Arnold's the good guy. Oh, okay. I don't think that's a twist though. It at, dude. Do you go? That's it.

When there is a wall and Arnold has the roses and they're coming down the hallway and there's that moment of Good guy or bad guy and then he shoots the T1000 like the first 10 minutes though, isn't it? It's still a boy. It's still but he's the bad guy in the first movie and he's the good guy in the second movie That's the twist the movie at open it fades from black and he's like Err and then he just says I'm the good guy and it was in the first minute. Is that still a twist? No. Yeah. Yeah, sure It is I would want to know that it is. I think I was why do you think a twist has a common like the last bit of the movie is to be a twist. I'm gonna show that to a twist.

This is the franchise level twist. This isn't your like run of the mill like within a feature twist. Was it you who was talking about one time you went to see me be the Alamo drop house and there was you know how they showed those little pre-show videos and clips yeah there was like a skitter something that showed someone using a weapon to kill someone that was like the big from no country for old men yeah the big surprise weapon he pulls out at one point it's like really a surprise weapon but it was like I felt like it wasn't necessary for Alamo to detract from that moment before you saw the movie yeah they were using an opumpance yeah outside of

the Alamo Ritz and I was was like, it's a funny video, but you guys kind of like took away from what turned out to be one of my favorite movies of all time. Right. When the first time he uses that on something, it is a surprise. It's a very confusing moment. Because you don't know what the hell this guy is,

you know, and the guy himself doesn't know. He's like, yeah, what's this? Yeah, yeah. Well, even after he gets killed, you're still left wondering like, what happened? How, how, how is there a hole? But they totally describe what the thing is. Should we describe at this point what we're talking about? It's like a cattle on pneumatic punch. It's like a hole with a like shoots out like a pneumatic. Connect to like rod that

let it go into it. Yeah. And it goes into an animal head. Have you seen no country for a man? No. Oh, it's a great man. He just woke up. He's very disturbing. The kind of star of gas the scene with him and uh... and in the gas station clerk with the coin flipping might be one of the most stressful scenes in film that i can like recall it is really stressful you want a great way to reduce stress is get a good night sleep

Just like my segment. Yeah, that was really nice. Listen, it's very natural. You don't know. I like guys to segue the lab that I, which is hold on. I need to read this. That's my segue. That's fine.

Before we call our next game, I gotta read something. That's how we guess us to shut up. Otherwise, we don't ever stop talking. Go on. So it works. Just go with a hand, fifth segment. I was gonna ask you if you could print out the page for the country for old men IMDB, so I could remember who the actor was. Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to cut off your joke. We're gonna

find pull it. We could get a joke with like a full minute gap. So we can look at I would have lived in the middle of the whole dog with the joke. Who's in that actor or in that movie? Who's the main actor? Javier Bardem. J got it. No actually the main actor I guess is Josh Brolin by the way the one we remember yeah Havier Bardem is like the take away ends like garbage what no no no no no yeah you you're fucked up you really think that's bad this is first of all it's based on a cornbread McCarthy novel and it's cornbread McCarthy is a fantastic writer so and it ends just the same way that the book does. So what's your problem with the end?

Your problem is the end with the Tommy Lee Jones talking about? It was like movie, movie, oh, oh, good explanation. So in all movies and forging of the English language. I don't think this is a spoiler. What I'm about to say, if you haven't seen no country for a minute,

it's like 10 years old. Yeah, and if you haven't seen it, Jayman, you haven't seen no country for a man like 10 years old. Yeah, if you haven't seen it shame on you No, but no country for old men is like the whole lesson with Kamil Jones is dad at the end and talking about like the way things used to be And then the whole thing with the kids Dealing with Javier Bardem when he gets into an accident and like them dealing with him and then he kind of gets away And does this other thing and towards again, then Tommy Lee Jones does some stuff And there's a climax and then Tommy Lee Jones talks. That whole thing, the whole like last 15 minutes is so on point for what the title of the movie is, which is just like, and I think this applies to,

you know, what we deal with like right now, I'll tell a story about like, stranger danger and shit like that in a second, but it is just notion that when we were younger, the country was better and safer, or that the world was a better place, and that things have gotten shittier over time, and that's never been the case. The world is always getting better, not worse. It's just us who, just like as we grow older, and we can't tolerate those things, or we've learned too much about the world, and it's more about us than it is about the way the world is going on. That's why it's no country for old men, because this is a place that's always been rough

and tumble. I mean, there were Indians and cowboys killing each other. You know, there was plagues and everything else and it's just, you know, as you grow older, you have no tolerance for those kinds of things. So that's what I think. And that's like, nowadays, when, you know, I go to a playground and there's as many parents at the playground, and I'm one of them. But there's as many parents at a playground as there are kids. When I was a kid and I went to the playground, there was no fucking parents around. We just did my parents would kick me out of the

house at like 9 a.m. and say come back when the street lights turn on. Did you also like leave the front door unlocked when you left? Yeah, my ex my ex-girlfriend in a small town, she did that and I always like she kept leaving the door unlocked and I would have to constantly go locked doors in the house and that drove me nuts But it's one of those things. It's like the world was just as bad back then It's like it's not it's not like the world has gotten worse My I had a buddy this really this is gonna infuriate me talking about this. I got it mentally prepared for this Pilla Yeah, you give me the Hitler

What is that? No, I think it was a hit Cugget so I got a buddy in my and he told me this story told me this just this morning um he went out this weekend with his kids and he went to a bowling alley and it was just you know normal day out with the kids and he had to go the bathroom and his daughter is young she's like five or six and his son's a little bit older than that and he was like okay but they're okay they'll here. You know, so he goes to the bathroom. So he's going to the bathroom and he passes this like day camp of kids, where they're all out on a field trip

bowling, you know, and they're there for the day. And he's going to the bathroom and there's a female camp counselor there. And she goes, you can't go in the bathroom. There's somebody in there. And he goes, in the men's bathroom, she goes, yes. And he goes, it's a big bathroom. He goes, I've been here before. It's a bowling alley. It's not, there's enough room for a lot of people in there. And he goes in the men's bathroom, she goes, yes, and he goes, it's a big bathroom. He goes, I've been here before, it's a bowling alley. It's not, there's enough room for a lot of

people in there. And then a kid walks out like that, like just a little kid, one of the kids, when the day can't walk out, and he walks back to the lane where they're bowling. And he goes, yes, I'm sorry, it's just against our policy, it's against our policy, and he's like, what's against your policy? She goes, for any of our children to be in a, in a unaccompanied male situation where an adult male would be around them unaccompanied Wow, and he's like what the fuck? He goes do you think that's a normal thing to say to me? He guys it was what what's wrong with you? And she's like well, that's just our policies like you don't personally don't own the boat rail

You're anything it's just like so he brought it up because I had told him the story about the quantus Airlines where they moved the guy because he was sitting next to an unaccompanied minor and their policy was adult males can't sit next to unaccompanied minors it's like what the fuck is wrong with people and that they're policy then send the kid in with like a male counselor or something yeah exactly they probably don't trust that guy either you know buddy systems so messed up it's just John's crazy no I'm I'm I'm I just I I totally agree with you That's crazy. I'm saying but like you know instead of like keeping an adult man from going into a public bathroom

Just send a couple kids in there. It's just that like It's like shit storm prevention because if something did happen they'd be in a lot of trouble, but Like how many people are gonna did a little kid? Would they would they would they've had the same policy with the girls' restaurant? Who knows who knows what their logic is? It's the frequency of male diddlers is higher. But what is the figure like how how many and how many?

Everything I read though is some teacher sleeping with their students. You know, female female teacher sleeping with their students. Yeah, I always hear about priests. Oh, yeah, that's the other one too. It's just it's a word you both people are Hold on. Yeah, it wasn't wearing a good boy scout outfit. Sorry if you're a boy scout that was really You could do in that situation if you like you need to pee and you know you're not gonna mess with any kid But if you just barged in and peed would you get in trouble?

I don't know what she what if she called the police like with that of escalator It's a sure so I'm saying it's like I used a public restroom. Yeah, so if he knows he's not gonna do anything Why need just go in anyway? No, no, while he was discussing with him, the kid walked out. So it was like literally, like, I mean, someone stops you. If you were in that situation, what would you have done? I would have been just as mad as he was.

Which would be, I wouldn't have gone in. Let's say you're in this situation and the kid doesn't walk out while she's talking to you. And so you're left with the choice to either following her lead on the policy or just going past this woman into the bathroom. I would have gone in and molested the kid.

Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. No, sorry. Sorry. And that's going to be taken as a sound, right? No, I would be. Now, I would be.

So just gone straight and have been like, fuck off. Really? Just fuck off. Because I've actually kind of reconciled myself with this. I caught myself one time at a playground where there was a kid who fell off of like maybe like a four-foot drop and fell on his shoulder and he gets up and he's crying and it's like I just sat like two feet away from the kid going hey you're gonna be okay I didn't get near the kid I didn't want to touch the kid because I was falling prey to that same idea that if I get anywhere near this

kid and he's crying that I'm gonna to look like I've done something weird to this kid. I'll test that. So I'll pass that now. Yeah, it's it's I don't I don't like the feeling that I have, but I at the same thing when I'm at a playground with my kids like, you're almost scared to get in proximity or or or even like, you know, for any reason, touch any other kids like you've got some sort of germ that you can't, you know, you know, do anything about. touch any other kid. It's like, you've got some sort of germ that you can't, you know, do anything about, but yeah, I feel the same way.

Even though I'm there at the playground with my two little girls. I always say, other people's kids are like plutonium. Yeah. It's like, you just like, don't touch them. Yeah, to you guys see the video on Reddit the other day where this guy was flying his drone around,

just taking shots of the landscape and everything like that. And some guy confronted him saying, my kids playing soccer over there stop filming my kid. Yeah, I feel a weird about that. And he was just like, no, I was just filming like the hills and the outdoors. The outdoors and he's like, well, my kids over there and you're filming my kid. I didn't give you the right to film my kid. You're a pervert.

Yeah, you didn't give it the satellites. Right. The lights have filmed his kids either. And it's like, first of all, his kids like this big. Maybe he has a tiny kid. his kids either. And it's like, first of all, his kids like this big, maybe. He has a tiny kid. Chop, Chris. Curl laughing at that.

Chris like that one. Probably laughing at the dad jokes. How long can someone figure out some sort of like microchip to like embed in people that when cameras film them, they like blurred out? Like a bunch of dogs when you look at yourself on the security camera? Yeah, I, you know, they'll probably have, but a lot sooner they'll probably have chips that we're gonna be shooting in the kids' arms

so we can track them with GPS. Like that's a totally normal thing to do. I'm surprised I didn't exist yet, to be honest. I actually have that on Joe the Cat now. You shot something into it? No, I'm glad you entered that sentence with Joe the Cat. No, I have that on TV. He's a collar, but the idea of my kids

were in GPS call. This is a bracelet. This is a cat bracelet. I call it as a bracelet on a kid. Honestly, it's just a phone. I mean, most, I had a really creepy thing happen that I didn't even sign up for. We upgraded all of our computers to Windows 10 at home.

And Teddy has an account, and JD has an account. And then I'll tell you how to do other Xboxes and everything else. Well, because Teddy is listed as a child account still, our first week after having Windows 10, I get this report that says, here's everything your kid did this week in Windows 10. Wow. And it told me all the sites that he went to, got a percentage of the time he was on certain sites.

That's fantastic. I guess so. You don't want to know that. No, I don't even know how I even read it. I think that's, that's amazing that it automatically without you requesting it was like oh yeah You need this the assumption is that I would want it. Yeah, too. That was what was you Do you use it or did you just be like? Oh, what did was there anything weird? You know what I read it. That's it. I honest

I read it. Yeah, I did read it and because I was kind of I was mainly out of curiosity Well, what other reason would you've read it? What? Curiosity be the reason you would have read it. I'm a gonna read it. I'm not gonna read it. He's like, I don't know if I should see this. And now he's like letting the entire internet see his child's history. So, if you could print me a copy that would be great. I'll just show you there. Like, there's all the sights and how much time you spend on each site.

What's the top bar? Steam. I'm not gonna read it. I'm not gonna read it. I'm not gonna read it. I'm not gonna read it. He's like, I don't know if I should see this. And now he's like letting the entire internet see his

child's history. So, if you could print me a copy that would be great. I'll just show you there. Like there's all the sights and how much time you spend on each site. What's the top bar? Steam. I see people calm there. Nope.

Oh, I was just like, damn Teddy. He's basically, I'm not going to tell you what he did. It's not your business. Fuck off. I wouldn't want to, I don't know. I don't have kids. I can't really think about my own opinion in that situation. I feel like I wouldn't want to know either. I think what you can't really think about my own opinion in that situation.

I feel like I wouldn't want to know though. I think what you want your parents to know what you're up to? No. I mean, they can, I mean, it's like 16, would you want them to know what you're doing? No.

No. Not even if there's anything bad, it's just there's some sort of level of like when you're, you know, at that age, you just, you want something that's your own and so the thing that like, thing that you're, anything you're doing by yourself,

like someone else can just check on without your permission that would just be like That'd be a super bummer as a kid a huge bar And I used to buy these two especially when they first started working with us is You know, they're younger generation and they just post all their lives online and share everything It's like don't you don't have to do that that is not a requirement I did that. Yeah, you would over share stuff and bend to what I have a chef I don't over share too much. Well, just like just like posting where you are and what you're doing and pictures You like drinking with friends and stuff like that. It's like you know, it's like you don't have to you don't have to

Share all this better back in the day when people didn't do that burn. What I'm saying is John I went to a boss. Sorry for over sharing I'm saying is that You know, let's do the relationship Gavin come on Sorry for oversharing I'm saying is that like This is the relationship Gavin come on What it's like I lived in the age where it was a nice sweet spot between when they invented fire And when they invented internet somewhere in that range and I'm glad that I went all the way through high school And then the early part of college before

Everything you started getting documented Well, that's what that's what Wilson has said once during like a talk show interview where he was like, he was talking about his kid, Jaden and how, like, I think he actually used the worst dumb. And he was like, when I was 17, I was dumb. He's like, but there was no social media to document when he'd be dumb. Yeah, just lawsuits.

And it's even self-documentation. I was in a movie with a guy that, as soon as I got cast in it, there was guys also in it. And it turned out when he was like 17, it came out that he posted something when he was 15, that he subsequently had a race, but it was a really fucking dumb comment that this guy made.

I mean, it was really dumb. He acknowledged it was really dumb. And it was like, but it's gonna follow him forever. It's fun. Well, to think about how far that's come, I remember reading an article, and this must have been something like Wired Magazine. This had had been like 10 plus years ago. And I was reading about a guy who somehow

in error got on like the like the FBI like an FBI list. And he wasn't supposed to be on there, but it was like one of those lists that once you get on there, you're never off just because it's just in case. And so he was always under suspicion of like where he was or what his he was using his credit card for and so to battle that He was he had like a GPS device on him Which is before like your phone was that and then he also was constantly Taking pictures of himself and pictures of where he was like menus of places And posting them to a blog constantly throughout the day and to read that, like, you know, over a decade ago, that was bizarre. Someone documenting throughout their day with pictures and their location on the internet.

And it was like, wow, that must be like, that must be crazy to do that and horrible, have to keep up with that. Now people, you know, we do that voluntarily. Yeah. It's done automatically. Yeah. Sometimes, like, you don't even know, like, things you're doing. I went to Facebook the other day and

It you know the thing where you're post you fucking status or whatever. What are you thinking? What is that thing at the top? It's like what do you what are you thinking or What's on your mind? I think it says what's your fucking status? The thing to think go to Facebook now and do it I went to Facebook and it said hey you have this link in your clipboard. Do you want to post it? That's a hideous feature. That's an awful feature. Who would ever think, yes. They also have the ability to have all your photos from your camera roll automatically be

uploaded to Facebook. That's danger. That is something you could accidentally activate or I could say, uh, like, or no, I don't want to click it. I click the wrong fucking thing and then I'm posting a link to who knows what. I am so happy. I don't know to click it and I click the wrong fucking thing and then I'm posting a link to who knows what I'm so I don't know if Facebook account that sounds horrible I mean all we've had our phones that we all post our clipboards right now see what happens

I'll I'll paste mine and see what I have I'm curious what I have Paste our clip you at home Never done that where you like you tell people to show you the last photo they took That's the thing I tweeted from the Rishie to come. Here's how I know I could fuck that up. I had the stupidest problem ever, where there's a certain kind of razor keyboard I like. It's the Deathstalker keyboard. It's got really flat keys, and I like it a lot. It's a good name for a flat keyboard. I had a Deathstalker. It's a terrible name. But I liked that one, and my P key on my

old one stopped working one day, and I was like, ah, forget it. So I went and got out of the let's play room. One of those clacky mechanical keyboards. Yeah, those things are horrendous. Yeah. Who the hell wants one of those? I hate them. Gus makes sense. Gus would want one. Gus loves the loudest. He hears the clacky and he knows it keeps away people.

You know, that was like six different kinds of switch you can get in those clickity clacks ridiculous. It's awful. People have like preference to like what color switch they want and stuff and it also like does rainbow or like the chrome stuff underneath my kids are like that stuff like I have a my clipboard was miles Luna's address so oh I'll try mine so yeah so then I finally said all right forget it I'll just buy another version of the keyboard that I like so I went and bought the new keyboard it

finally arrived I plugged it in I was using it go version of the keyboard that I like. So I went and bought the new keyboard, it finally arrived. I plugged it in, I was using it, go to type P, the P on it doesn't work. What? And I was like, this is exactly what I remember the last fucking keyboard. Turns out somehow I had opened up a profile, made a profile for the keyboard and changed P to nothing. And so when I plugged in the new keyboard, it like downloaded my profile from the cloud and goes, oh this guy fucking hates P.

So it turned out when a new keyboard it like download it in my profile from the club goes this guy fucking hates peace What's that? Actually saying you know All right, let's see what my clipboard is Let's see what my clipboard you can see you Chris. Let's see what my clipboard is. You guys pay attention. You can just see it. You can see it. Like, when you watch Barbara, you can just see her formulating these things and holding on to them until

there's like a low. That one was really funny. No, it wasn't. She gave it. That was really funny. Like, usually it's tall. No, so you can't say it's funny because then it just continues. They're all really funny.

That is mine. What is yours? Oh! I'm sure it's a dick pick. No It's a EW article about season three Ruby. Yeah, okay entertainment weekly one that premiered this weekend That was awesome congratulations I didn't blew up the website. Yeah, we're talking about it in the vlog that I posted today, but Adam said he brought 40 servers online in order to maintain the website while people were getting ruby and that didn't work. He said it was double the amount he thought we would need.

He literally said I spent too much money on it because I was out of the town and I didn't want to have to deal with it while I was out of town, so I like doubled up on what I thought I would need. And it still was enough. It's really funny that the way that we gauge success around here is how much we kill Adam. I broke this thing. Like how many years of Adam's life you take off, that's like how well your show's doing.

You know, like if he looks really happy on Monday morning, it was like, what? We're doing horribly. Sometimes Adam just comes into our office and just goes face down onto our couch. It's sad. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous.

It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous.

It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous.

It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. It's so ridiculous. So we got this or yeah, uh, this is usual. The one thing he asks, like, I love every, like, it's almost every single week. I don't know why he says everything. He's like, if you don't need to bother us, don't bother us. We need to, we got to work on this. He must alone. Who doesn't say that at this point?

Yeah. That's also like a cheap and 100-toned mantra. Just everyone's in the office. Just leave us alone. Please. I was surprised you guys just having like bored and up the door. You guys could still come visit Gus Bethany and I all the time. I stopped by there about once a day, say hello.

Get nature bucks. I know what. I hung out in the couch today. I got accused of eating your nature box last time and I did not do it. Who did? The second to last one. I ate that. The last one.

I don't know what happened there. There was a lot of stuff. I think I just got delivered to the armed person. Some pair stuff that I had never seen before. Some pair granola. I believe it had a pair to the wrong person some pair stuff that I had never seen before some pair granola Believe it had pair in it Is that pair something pair related I think it might have been pair

It could have been mango, but not only was it paired because it was a thirst. No, it might have been a Tuesday Because then that was when I got my hair cut I knew it was a pair because I had a buddy back in grade school and he would need a pair every day That's what I learned about pairs back in the good old days. We had pairs of course. We didn't go on pairs back They think if I'd call them sour apples Does anyone I feel like if you were to ask the world? Did the color orange was named after the orange? The best conversational fuck you you could do

Conversational Building up to something you can take a while. So I just wanted to get that thought out Yeah, orange was not called orange before the orange fruit. They named it's why he said fuck it Is it true? I didn everyone knows that. Oh, is it true? Yeah. I didn't know that. Why you talking about that? What was the original color name?

I don't know, but everyone knows that. You're really gonna say it was like Versa Militude. It's something like that. I'm looking at the stuff. Yeah, that's how they named colors. They're like red, blue, yellow, Versa Militude. Versa Militude. That's why it changed the orange.

It was such a mouthful. Like, orange color original name. Just like a group of people like, Jerry, we're not gonna fucking call it Versa Militune. Versa Militune. That's what I changed the orange. It was such a mouthful. Like, orange color original name. Just like a group of people like, Jerry, we're not going to fucking call it Versa Militune. It's not a name. Maybe it just didn't have a name, Bernie. The unknown color. I'm looking this up. Gavin, why don't you go with your saying it?

I was trying to talk about the pair, but the pink. I'm not talking about the pink. I was dumb and to talk about it now, it just, it's too much. That's what we're talking about. Well, is it really worse than that? Well, I was going to say, like, if I'll be just listen too much now. Well now we're talking really worse than that Well, I was gonna say like if you asked the world there you go What their favorite fruit was or if you could be a fruit which fruit? No one would say pear I'm pears actually my favorite fruit get out

pairs I look at I look at you my favorite favorite of all the fruits I even buy juice I buy You can buy Yes yes anything juice almost anything juice you could I prove you tell you explain that that is true how do you buy poo juice because prunes are just so they're just plums right why did you just like they're like they're like they're like blended up. So much. It's all dry. Yeah, it's like it's like the glass of juice.

Is there raisin juice? Yeah. Well, there's not really much wet in a raisin. What? There's another wet left in a bedroom talk. Or in a pair.

And the prunes. Now, the prunes have that flavor. You could mish. Hey, someone on Twitter tell me what the real name of an orange is. I think it's like what the real name of a color orange. I think it's a bum fact. I don't think that's real orange was called Geolarouge. There you go. Geolarouge. Guaranteur. Galuga Reed. What's that?

Geolarouge. Geolarouge. Mealing Yellow Red. The color was referred to as Geolarola red meaning yellow red in old English and middle English Okay, what the fuck is middle English? What is that that was where we stand? That was right after the right before last English. What's the middle of England? Yeah, give me a map like I'm going to middle England Yeah, this is a middle of England Middle ages is the middle ages they spoke like that? Yeah, they said, go ahead.

You're asking him. Yeah. Did you learn Gula Red? No, I don't know. Is that how you pronounce it? I'm sure it's not. I'm sure it's absolutely not. First of all, too.

Someone going Wikipedia and change that to ver, remiss, ver, whatever the person. See, can't even say it. It was a Gula Red. Maurice is online. Tell me that fruit, Kevin. What's your favorite fruit? Kevin. Favorite fruit. Wow. You had this question, baby. It was a cooler red Maurice is online tell me that fruit Gavin

Favorite fruit Wow, you had this question I like the agent. I can lovely lovely grape. Oh Obviously I used to feed Gavin grapes from my what happened to that by the way pre-prepared me I was like a weird thing. I dream space food now. That's what happened You want like some of my sludge from the bottom of my space food today? I did. I had two space foods. Did I have my space food? Yeah, you're also doing space food. I do. Space food. I also like the grapefruit. No, give grapefruit. Why? The grapefruit. I mean, the grapefruit. The Indian podcast. I went awards at some point. At one point. I don't know why. No. No. No. This is more about them than it is about us.

Stupid award gamers. But how come you don't ever eat another fruit the way you eat grapefruit? If you gave me an orange and I cut it straight down the middle and started eating it with a spoon, I would be a fucking lunatic, wouldn't I? Why is the grapefruit the only thing that you do like that? The only size. Why don't you go through like that?

I peel it like a damn orange. And you eat it like in slices? And I also like extra peel it. Like with an orange, you just pull off the segment and you eat all the goop. You eat all the gack that holds the goop. But with a grapefruit, I get rid of everything except for the little soft, freshies.

You don't have to get the little pods. No, I get rid of all the pods skin. Just so it's like. No, it's inside of the little pods of juice, is essentially what it is. That's what we, that's the meat. All the sediments. The gack.

The gack, the outside. I damn it. The gack, the skin. That's the meat. All the sediments. The gags. The gags, the outsides. God damn it. The gags, the skin. It's like the inner gags skin holds the game. I'm the idiot here. That's what it is. No, but I don't want you to do with the spoon because then you get all the gackage.

There you go. Okay. Make sense. My parents would prepare great fruit very specially for me and my brothers. They would cut it open and then take a knife and cut around the edge and then cut through each slice so you could just spoon each piece out very easily. You don't have to actually like scrape that They pre-cute it. A pampered childhood. Did you?

And then they would sprinkle a little sugar on it too. Is that like a Jewish grapefruit technique? Why would it be a Jewish grapefruit? Everything that my parents did for us was a Jewish technique in some manner. Oh, is this guy preparing a grapefruit? Oh, it looks, he made it look awful. Well that's all the game. It looks like a grapefruit. It looks like a brain.

It looks like a bacon ball. He's making like grapefruit labia. Oh no thanks. What? Look at what he's doing. He's like fumbling the, that's the worst chef ever. What were you supposed to take away from that? He's gonna get a halfway house.

Should we just make a bunch of like really crap but not joking chef videos when we prepare food in like the worst way Is it like how to basic is that what that is? Do you watch how to basic? Yeah, I kind of got out of hand guys But you just bit so much Oh, I mean you normally you just go like a little drop now, and then know it's like a full god Honestly, the great proof made my mouth like a full gun. Honestly, the great fruit made my mouthful. Oh, that's not so good. I'm the response to the blooper. My mouth is filled with so

either. That makes him so great fruit. I'm actually a Michael when he gets real excited and his mouth starts to foam a little bit. That's what Jeremy's been commenting on recently because he's in the main room now with the big boys. Yeah. And he's noticed how much Michael's spit. I think everyone's a big boy. Oh my goodness, it's a lot.

Yeah, like Jeremy's blown away by the spit that comes out of Michael. Michael gets into like into one of his story modes. It's just like every minute. Right. Yeah. So that's how like legitimately foam. Really? Yeah.

Michael's excited. But he doesn't slow down for it. No way. Why. Really? Yeah. Michael's excited. But he doesn't slow down for it. That would be a good one. No way. Why would you? Yeah. Recently, my experiment in vlogging, I found that vlogging is actually way harder than it seems.

It is. If Felicia Day said that when she started doing her, I think it's called her flaw. Doing it well. Well, let's assume it's going to be good. Let's hope. Well, let's just, let's talk. Well, it's not. You're pretty much talking for 20 to 30 minutes straight. Yeah, it's just like just a

straight bill of gas. That was like you start to build up spade and never turn it into a gal. Yeah, gal and whatnot. That was one of the things that I just got when I had a short stint where I was a a professor at a college and adjunct. What's adjunct? You're a professor. I was a professor professor rice here You do look pretty professional rice manga, right? Sorry, there you go Big part of like you know college classes is just like lecturing and so like standing in front of a class and talking for like 30 minutes nonstop about you know a program or or designing that kind of thing

It's like I you know my voice went away and it was like, it was hard. It's hard. Yeah. You know, I've also thought, I've talked with Meg about it before. I think her like post entertainment career, the team vision was like college professor or something

that I've always thought it'd be fun to do that. Like I've been doing a lot of stuff down at the university, South of your Texas state. And it's like, we always give really good talks. Well, it would be like to do like a whole class. Like prepare for that. Because that's like, if you did a whole fucking semester, that's a lot of work.

It's a lot of work to be in the class. A lot of work to make the class. A lot of work to make the class. Yeah, holy cow. Short of this job, my favorite job I've ever had was being a dad job professor. It was just a great amount. Like, yeah, it was, the first time I ever taught the classes

because I made my curriculum, it was a lot of work. Because you're literally making you have to fill the class But then once you had like a curriculum it was kind of like it was just fun. How old were you when you were a professor? Early 20s. Wow, and you read a college. How old are you now nice right? It's 31. That's a good gig my friend. What yeah? You didn't know that no, I didn't know you were a third. Yeah, so were you telling me I missed that thing? I hope 31 so you had the 20s when I made? Yeah late 20s hmm Could you do that math on your own I don't know John no, I don't I was trying to go have I known you for two years. Yeah

You just have like a little Like short haircut you now versus how you looked when you first got to Risserti this night and day Yeah, people it's been a Night day. Look at him from like 10 years ago. That's like yeah, no even like two years ago No people because we're coming up on like a year of on the spot and People have been posting like how I looked at the first episode versus how I look now. Oh there it is Look how full of joy you are. Look at that. That's

not young. That's probably about a year ago. Do a hard cut from that to John right now, trying to line that up. Oh, geez. Yeah. That's crazy. Yeah, you definitely went through the biggest challenge. And then now cut to the picture of me that I posted for extra life last year. What did you do before this? You ever do any web stuff before this? They're a little bit. Try to stay away from web stuff as much as I could because I wasn't like a programmer. I was, I'm a graphic designer. I'm the art side.

Yeah. But I mean, there was like, I think it's getting better now, but there was a time when people just consider that all one thing. And so like, oh, you're a graphic designer. You can make this website. Yeah. Well, some people can.

I couldn't. I was completely on the aesthetic side. Well, you wouldn't necessarily need to be a prognorium in order to have a good website if you had a really great place to host it.

Thank you Squarespace for sponsoring our podcast. We're really happy. Yeah, we were talking, we were just, we did so many interviews last week because of the laser team announcement with YouTube Red. And you know, it's always going back to those early days.

That's what most people want to talk to us about. It seems like I'm just starting out now. We were like four years before YouTube even existed. We started doing all this stuff. So what do they want to talk about? Like the origin story of our YouTube and that kind of stuff. And like how'd you get started? And like talk about, you know, the laser team.

Have you guys ever wanted to make feature films? So we talked about the early days. Just one interview and you can make it a small publication. I just want you to answer one time that you start out in porn. Just like make that, just that one. Just never. Yeah. I'm even you saying that.

At some point in the future, I'm going to read a thread, a comment thread somewhere where people will have misinterpreted or something like that. Well, Jack was the one who was important. People misinterpreted stuff on the internet. What's that? People misinterpreted stuff on the internet. It's one big game of telephone, isn't it?

Yeah, that's the way it works. It's been raining recently Do you have I was just thinking of some other ad read I was thinking of something happens to me. They're not guys brought you by talking rain Do you have emergency weather alerts on your phone? Yeah, no I turn them off I have a new phone and by default they were on again. You don't like them Dude, it's like a fucking train is driving through my let me set a scene. I can't sleep the other night So I thought well, I don't really want to I don't really like listening to headphones in my sleep But I had to because I couldn't sleep so I was listening to like relaxing shit about 4 am

4am When she hit the emergency tone in my head bones So loud because I was listening to like really quiet relaxing stuff. I don't think my heart is ever beat faster What was your physical reaction to it? I just leapt up. I must have hit the ceiling almost It was so scary and the best part about it was the warning was like don't drive on the road Oh, scared. And the best part about it was the warning was like, don't drive on the road. Yeah, so it's like driving anyway. Be sure to run it when you're asleep.

I play, why isn't that just like an automatic? Could we get so much rain this weekend though? Yeah, I don't need to know it for you. The thing about those emergency warnings though, it's nothing you're not gonna find out on Twitter if you just look at your phone or the news or anything like that. It's not like you need to know right then and there.

When I wake up, yeah. When are the best? One of the, like during the first year that was here in Austin, I saw I come from California, we don't have anything like hurricanes or tornadoes, that kind of thing. We just have earthquakes. But there was a time, about a year ago, we had like, we had a really serious storm here, and it was acting to that point where they were like, the emergency warning thing was telling people like, you know, get somewhere safe, fucking cover.

That kind of thing. And that really freaked me out because I've just like, you know, almost 30 years old, never dealt with that, you know, get somewhere safe, fucking cover. That kind of thing. And that really freaked me out because I've just like, you know, almost 30 years old never dealt with that, you know, my entire life. And so I was like, trying to figure out who of my friends has lived here long enough to be able to like give me good advice.

And so I remember texting Jack. And I was like, Jack, what do I do? Cause I, cause I, you know, Jack should go to. Well, I couldn't think of who I had a phone number four that had been here a long time. You haven't been here a long time. No, I was, I was, I was, I couldn't think of who I had a phone number four that had been your long time you haven't been your long time No, I was I was you me talk about that hurricane thing that happened Yeah, and so I'm a he gave me advice, but one of the things that really freaked me out was he's I was because I was worried about you know

Our tornado or something like that yeah, and he's like you know, we don't get a lot of here Like we I know that's it the lesser tornadoes and I'm gonna go ahead But he did say something. He's like if you hear a train. Yeah, get know that's it. Dallas or tornadoes and I'm gonna go ahead. But he did say something, he's like, if you hear a train, get to somewhere safe. And that freaked me out, because I was like, what do you mean if you hear a train? Like do trains get fucked up during like tornadoes or something? They just start flying through neighborhood train? Why?

I can't know. And then he like texted back, he's like, yeah, they make sounds like a train when they're about way to close. There's nothing else you can really associate with that noise. It's like the house will be rattled. Just the way he phrased it though, it's's just like if you hear a train get somewhere safe Something like it's like my kids are watching Thomas So you're under the bed they are they they loved it. I had them like in

Because they didn't know what's going on But I had them the face safest place in my house was the downstairs bathroom underneath the stairs Yeah, and so I had like blankets all in the bathroom And I had them down in there. And they were like, we're having a slumber party and the bathroom downstairs because daddy's weird, but they didn't know the way. Where do you think the safest place in this office is

in terms of tornadoes or? There's not a lot probably because we have big bay doors. So like a tornado hit this thing and be kind of rough. And there's probably the old achievement in our office, which is now the gaming department. Because it's an actual wall. It's walls. Yeah.

I don't know whether they just don't have Gavin's office, scavenged office. That's not even tumor walls back. It's got a little bit of glass in it, but it's a center. Because it's having that room inside. Well, I've never experienced that tone or that even that option in the phone. I don't know whether they just add the day after I moved here or we just don't have them in England, but it's terrifying. There is actually another one that'll cause that is Amber Alerts cause that is one.

And that's a missing kid, right? Miss it's supposed to be missing kids, but a lot of times it's missing senior citizens. It's not a silver alert. I don't know. I always thought they were just effort Amber just meant missing person. I think silver is an older person. Is it? I recognize the real problem.

Silver alert. I recognize that's a real problem. Right. I know It's missing all of us. It doesn't seem to be the same levels of missing kid to me kids is missing is like Yes, on the wrong. They can't do that. That's ages It's a little ages. It's a little ages all I'm saying is if you read when you get lost Bernie We're not gonna come out Lost in a Tesla? Just don't bother looking for me. Whatever happens and you get into that fugue state, we all know you're going to get to

at some point. We're just going to be like, he's fine. He's fine. You said last scene auto driving down I-35 complaining about oversharing of the young characters. Do you see that video of the guy in his Tesla where it just veers and told him going traffic? So the exact same thing that I have to tell you.

People are fucking idiots. People are just, they're basically idiots. All those videos that people are putting out show that people can't follow a simple set of rules. And it's like, I don't know why the guy was filming the car driving while he's, while he's supposed to be the one driving the car. And he's like, he's got a camera and all that stuff.

But if you read all the documentation we talked about this on the podcast. I think you read it last time. Tesla is overselling it by calling it auto drive. It's really not. I mean, the wheel will turn and it will steer itself down. But you're not, you literally can't make a turn in the car. You can change lanes, but you cannot like make a right turn. The car doesn't stop at stop lights. The car doesn't stop at stop signs. It's like if you're on a on a freeway or like a highway like on the middle where you can just Set it to go. Yeah, I can drive all the way across Austin never touch the wheel and never touch the pedals As long as I'm on the freeway and I'm like I got a straight like shot just follow this road if it sees tail lights Does it slow down? Yeah, it'll lock on other cars besides you it actually does way better in

In bumper to bumper traffic because it has all the other cars to like what if you're driving along and someone swerves it actually reacts faster than I would like if someone cuts me off in front it backs way the hell up. The one thing it does is when you go to tell it I want to change lanes and it like will wait till the car gets a little bit out of the way and then gets over. So the car is actually like way more aggressive about changing lanes than I would ever be. The problem and another problem that has on a freeway is when, and this happens a lot of places in Austin where all of a sudden a lane just splits or a lane comes together and something like that happens. Like a merge? Yeah, when lanes merge or split.

You know how in traffic, if everyone is just stationary and then the car in front moves ahead, the next car moves and it's kind of like a very slow sort of like snake like movement. If they were all testlers locked on to each other, would they all just go at the same time? No, there's a bit of a delay. There is. But it's just like, well I think I wouldn't it just be like a constant slow movement like through like because the reason why we start and stop is because our reaction time we see the light that we go on. I think but if it was like a robot or a computer would it just just be like, right, everyone just kind of... Like a big hive mind. Yeah, absolutely. Assuming that if there's a standard out there and enough cars become auto drive,

that they'll communicate with one another, but they don't really do that. They're designing them so such that they can just interpret what's going on in the road and then react accordingly. I think they're gonna have to update traffic lights to in real time broadcast their state, like a traffic light needs to Wi-Fi the fact that it's red and then other cause can pick up on that. Why if the cars can already detect it? It's cheaper

to like have all the cars just have a camera with a tiny computer chip that you know. It could be fooled by something else that's red. Yeah, you're talking about like a direct data link, which I think would be more accurate than. Yeah, sure. I mean down the road, you know, is there a place like they replace most of the street lamps with LEDs now, you know, so because it's more efficient, how to cut a tell that it's in a brake light and a traffic light because it sees it up higher. And it's round and it's not on a car like my, my, my car. You're talking to someone who doesn't drive.

I was curious about it. I was very careful about it, but I got behind a motorcycle and I turned it on. And it recognized the motorcycle as a full vehicle, like just just as that small little profile, that's a vehicle and the follow it the way it would follow anything else. It didn't just go like right over the top of the deal. It's half of a car. Yeah. Fuck that guy.

Two wheels. Master race. What wheel of God. So how far away do you think we are from a car that I can buy? It doesn't have any. You never, you never gonna buy a car. I mean, I'm a bike driver. I'm like 10 years now like 10 years now self driving car right I did see an acid Martin for the I don't think Teddy will learn how to drive a car and Teddy's 10 why not what do you mean because I think they'll be auto drive cars

But I don't need to be that I think I think maybe my two-year-old. I don't think you're good. So I can as long as I wait No, I mean they'll be there, but they'll be much expensive our family's way rich. We're so much rich of the year its foot there are self-driving trucks in Europe right now like 18 wheelers those are the things that they have driving themselves right now are those that's terrifying That's pretty fucking terrifying. How how long until the first sci-fi horror film about self-driving cars it'd be like jewel again what? The what Spielberg movie About self-driving cars it'd be like jewel again. What? Spielberg movie What's the called a dual what do I say? Jewel a face a jewel. Oh, yeah, that's how I pronounce that way. You say jewel that's with a J

That's what is that I like The pop artists two people at Julling do it do it. They're do you say what a diamond jewel kind of that's a two people at Julling. Jull, yeah, dual. How do you say what a diamond is? Julling. That's a, a geocarute. What was that thing?

I can't remember it. Jullarette. Jullarette. But I think what'll happen is I think they'll become more advanced and people get more used to it. It's like smartphones. It's like, I'm gonna introduce a smartphone. It's like, I don't wanna fucking PDA.

I've already had a PDA to dumbest thing ever. Then you get one and then it's like the most important thing in your life So I think it's and it goes so fast. Why? What's pda really you don't want to pda you don't know pda's no pda's like a The predecessor for smartphone. Yeah, a personal data assistant is that what pda's like a palm pilot Yeah, and when I first heard about a Smartphone I was like, eh, I don't know what it is. What's like when they put the camera on the phones, and I'm like, why do I need a camera on my phone?

I mean, I have a camera, why would I need it on my phone? And it's like, you know what it was like for me? MMS messaging, when the iPhone didn't have it. If you went back to the original iPhone, like the iPhone one or two, you couldn't cut and paste. That was awesome. You couldn't send MMS messages, I didn't exist you couldn't take video yeah and when you when they talked about MMS coming I'm like who's I'm not gonna

fucking use that what would I ever send like files or pictures to people now that's all that I do I don't even respond to people just send pictures to them and that's it like dig picks and things yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah like dick pics and things like that. One ISO. Yeah. Susan press. Susan press. Yeah. Let's all for the record. Oh, hey, I don't know if that's impressed as much as like like we're discovering one for

like the first. Oh, that's what they are. I just want to say though, all the people posting videos and all the radio stations talking about the Tesla, like some guy made a big deal about it, that he got the first auto drive speeding ticket that his car took him faster, even though you manually set the speed. It's just like, I mean, at that point, it's like a guy that can't work cruise control.

That's what that guy is. That guy's a fucking idiot driving around in that car. So why are there so many, you think like the owner of a Tesla, gonna be probably a small, successful dude, cause he can afford a Tesla. They're all idiots. Money doesn't equal intelligence though. Oh, I always

Did you see my dog? He said that his dad gave him a million dollar loan a small loan small loan small World a million dollars and he had to pay it back with interest. So let's be fair. Oh There's no way Donald Trump's dad's still live, right? I don't know. So what happened all that money? I'm sure it went to Donald Trump, right? Right. So there's like other people. Right, but also he also falls up that statement saying

like got a small little million dollars bought property. Oh, okay. So you made the money back. You're fine. So just talking about Donald Trump, does that now count as a politics conversation? What's that? Yeah. Donald Trump is a, yeah, I guess he's a political figure. I mean he's the leading candidate right now, right for the Republican party Is he really I think he really is is So many people gonna leave the country

People say that people say that every fucking time we have we have a new president It's like oh of this problem going to Canada going to go to England or something. Does anyone actually do that? Yeah I mean some idiots who like fall through for the most part. We're like one of those idiots that were like we're going to get divorced if gay marriages made legal. Did they get divorced? No. I just like all the people who said they would move to Canada if Obama was elected and it's like oh you're going to go to the country where gay marriages legal, for abortions legal, where all this stuff is legal, free health care, everything you're complaining about. Yeah. No one's no one's going to leave if Trump becomes president. No one's going to go politics.

I might be forced back. We both might be forced back. One, you guys are immigrants. Just in case we, I don't know if we fuck up or do something. Gavin's always worried about getting something legal. Taking jobs, get out. Yeah, immigrants. So we fuck up or do something. Gavin's always worried about getting something legal. Taking jobs, get out. Yeah, you gave us these. I'm not saying it. I'm just saying the government will tell you. Like, hit the bricks.

Canuck. Get back to your hockey. What is the population of Canada? Because last week at the YouTube event, they kept talking about how PewDiePie has more subscribers than the entire population of Canada. Canada is about 34 million. No shit, the whole country.

The whole country. There's more people in the state of California than they're on Canada. More people with the L-Ray channel in their house. What's up? What's up? Bring it to school. Hi, it's me. That was an awesome job.

Wait, I do want to point out, you just reminded me, there is one thing you can do in order to make Adam Beard perk up, and that's talk about hockey. Hockey? Yeah, I've talked about that stupid dinosaur MMO He was like Ark whatever we out whatever the most recent MMO obscure like garbage game Adam is like level 50 in it No, I just about Adam was giving me a ride home at one point when I was having car problems and he got talking about I brought a pocket because I saw that they I saw this clip that they Chains the rule about when there's over time there's only like three guys on the ice on each team so

It's insanity that's like an intental rules and so he got I got him talking about that and he got so like just avid about it that he like he missed the exit on the freeway just kept driving like towards Houston I was like going and he's like sorry I got talking about hockey so if you piss him off enough We'll just keep going. Where's he from? Is he? His family's Canadian. Oh, his family's name. I think they're from Toronto.

I just pointed at Barbara. Barbara's. Where's he from? There. There. There's also another Canadian at this office. Joe, he's an animator. Oh, yeah?

Yeah, he's like, taller guy. Tall? Yeah. Joe McTump. He's always, he's like Canadian here in Ibiza or Canadian regular. I think he like has a dual citizenship. Canadian regular. I'm worried.

I'm curious. He's been here for a while. You want to see some documentation? Yeah, let's see the papers there. Before we send you back. My Uber driver today was British, which I've never seen before. You're taking jobs. There you go.

There you go. Taking jobs from people, from people nice Uber drivers. which i've never seen before or i think you can't go there we go taking jobs from people from people nice uber drivers so gavin you played fault are not far you played halo five this uh... last week i actually played a couple of weeks ago by the time people have uh... but this podcast is released publicly halo five will have been out for a couple days but if they're watching the sponsor comes out tonight it comes out tonight. Oh my god. It's an enjoyable game.

I had a great time playing Halo 5. It feels very halo, and I've said this before to other people, the meatiest halo game they've ever made. Just, just like impact, solid, spot and charge and ground pounds and everything sounds like waiting. Is it full of deck? No deck. Just gook.

What was that where he's going? Nope, nope, definitely not. Nope. It's not going to talk any spoilers if you haven't seen it, but the multiplayer's fantastic. There's been a little bit of back and forth about the story in the campaign. Well, it is the middle story.

It is the middle story of a trilogy, which we are in here. Which, yeah, they did tell us there was going to be a three-part trilogy as chill she's going to be so I was expecting a very halo to ask and to the story go ahead and because I was expecting it I wasn't annoyed but halo I thought that this was a way better middle story than Halo 2. And I really liked Halo 2, but I think that this is a better game and a better story

than Halo 2. I actually liked where they were going with the story. It's very, once people see the story, they'll get what I liked about it. There's certain aspects of the Halo universe that were really well-hated. There's a lot of Halo lore that was finally shown for the first time. You'll see, I'm not going to spoil stuff, but like stuff happens that you've heard about happening and you see it happening. It's like, that was cool. Spoiler alert. Not really. So, barring to review

Halo, we should people buy it. Big fat thumbs up from Gavin. Really great. When you have in Gus or in Seattle for the Halo 5 live stream. So after this you can go see you can see Gus and Jeff in their Halo celebrity tournament, which challenges both the word. So that should be really they're going to get destroyed. I'm sure we're actually going to be releasing the entire campaign in Let's Play form, full play co-op from beginning to end. Every day, starting today. So there's been something that happened there

at 343, two in the last few years that is like, they're hiring like XMLG, like ringers that work there. So when you end up playing people now that work at 343, they're actually like unbelievably good at the game because of Andy and like Andy Dudinsky Dudinsky or I don't know how you say his last name he's a phasinal Dumbledore guy fucking destroys it Halo like they had an event here for RTX last year and it was like it was awful

it was the worst experience I've ever had playing Halo I got the shit kicked out of me why would you hire someone to do that when like you're like showing people like a game that you want them to buy because you want people to be good at it. Also, these are people that are super passionate about Halo, because they played Halo at a professional level. I'd be challenging.

Yeah. Bring those fuckers. Hey, what should we do for the podcast? Let's play this week, because I'm supposed to organize it. Is it a coordinate? Do you want to play Counter-Strike? No. I want to play the bomb game.

Oh, you want to play, keep talking, nobody explodes? That one. You really want to play that? I want to play that for GameKids. I want to see how good you are under pressure keep talking, nobody explodes that one. You really want to play that. Yeah, I want to They, they, they, they, they, just want to play that for game kids. They want to see how good you are under pressure. It's a lot pressure. I really want to play more. Which, can we play in each game? I'm in a VR setup anywhere. You don't need VR, but absolutely. Okay. We do want him doing the instructions or him diffusing the bomb. We should rotate. I'll rotate with you. Yeah. Oh, we should provide some tips for those who haven't played Halo 5. I'll rotate with you. Oh, we should provide some tips for those who haven't played Halo 5.

They teach you how to do a Spartan charge, which is sprint and then you hold down melee. melee. And you kind of jetpack and smack stuff. They don't teach you how to ground pound. I didn't know the entire game that you could ground pound. Which I saw in a cinematic for that. You jump up in the air and you hold down melee and you kind of charge a spot. You can aim where it goes and then you go.

I would have had a lot of fun doing that. If everything you told me that exists. Whenever you have the high ground on enemy, just ground pattern them. It's amazing. Also, you can jump up in the air, look down the site, and you hover mid air. Did you use a lot of the iron site stuff, the left trigger sites?

Yeah, all the time. I played it exactly like I played Destiny. I could... You mean like in Colvedoodoo? Yeah, you Call of Duty. Yeah, yeah, we can bring on the sights. But let me see this. Does it seem like the zoom on all the weapons has now been nerfed as a result of that? Into the distance? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, like you can't zoom in nearly as far. Like the sniper rifle does in zoom in nearly as far as it used to. Have you clicked in the stick to zoom in again? I have tried to do that. Does that work? Yep. It didn't work for me. You

click in maybe I tried it with the binary rifle and it didn't work. You click in the stick to zoom in again. I have tried to do that. Does that work? Yep, it didn't work for me. You click in maybe I tried with the binary rifle and it didn't work You click in the left or right stick left stick and it's in again Oh, this is a sniper. Yeah, otherwise. It's just may. It was just clicking right stick because that's what I'm used to But is it left stick? It's something weird. I think well another thing we got last week that was really fucking awesome Which is a definite buy if you can afford it and it is it's ridiculously price But the Xbox Elite controller is fucking amazing Michael Michael had one we are They said it's like 10. Yeah, we go. They're heavy. They're awesome. They're metal They're awesome. Are they all need team on our office?

Mm-hmm. I should check it. I wasn't Intending on buying one, but then Just got one at work and I was told, and I totally won't know. Like, you can also set... We never get anything, by the way, and they send us like ten of these things. It's awesome. And you can... There's like the hair trigger function where you can... You can make it so the trigger only needs to be pushed about halfway. And then it will lock on the body. And it like mechanically stops. It's not like it just triggers the game earlier. So what I do, I keep my left trigger soft for looking down the site, because I want to

squeeze that in. And then the trigger is like, with weapons like the pistol and the carbine, it's like, you can be really fast shooting it. I'm also paddles on the back, which I haven't messed with yet. I remove mine. You can take them off. You can remove the paddles? You can remove everything. You remove the thumb sticks and replace it with other thumb sticks. And it's like held in place. It's very easy to magnet. It's all magnets, yeah. That is cool. If you can get your hands on one just to mess with it. I like it. It's dude

It's really because like the D pad has that circular version Yeah, so you can take it out and put in yeah conventional Four directional one. Oh, you can take it off and just play on like the underneath bit right it's still there People want us to play Counter Strike. According to Twitter, the same. Is there Counter Strike or? Do you want Counter Strikeers or like CSGO? Contagion.

Oh, CSGO. More contagion. Would play the gun game, I think, would probably be the arms race. Is that what it's called? Oh, the one, wait, the one that you have to go through all the guns. I would like to play that with people on the podcast, who because I've never, ever, ever fucking won a round. I have probably played a hundred rounds of arms race. I play that with people in the podcast crew, because I've never, ever, ever fucking won a round of cash.

I have probably played a hundred rounds of arms race, and I've never even gotten to like the top three guns. You ever got to like the knife? God, at this point in my life, I'm just, if I pull like a one kill death ratio, like I'm even, I'm ecstatic. I'm just, my skills have just dropped off. I mean like one to one?

Yeah, yeah, I just want as many deaths as I have kills I used to be used to be good at Halo 2 I did but I don't play as much games that you used to quit when you were losing I did I would be like because you were good and we were all bad I just stayed the same level of bad and you also joined me so like what's your kill death ratio in Halo 2? sure I Remember that the last time I looked I had Hey, what's up? Sure. I remember the last time I looked, I had 20,000 kills and 25,000 deaths.

You said what it was? You're a little bit under. Mine was crazy. Mine was like 25,000, 10 kills and 25,000 deaths. It was like, across like 50,000 kills and deaths. I was off like 10 kills. 10 kills upon? That was like that close to like one of one.

Wow. Yeah. I think you told me at the time, actually, you that you said, you should get in there and like, just die 10 times and then like you'll be dead even. That's one of my favorite things online. Have you ever seen the clip that somebody posted of Futurama that's the neutral planet? I have no feelings one way or the other.

I have no strong feelings one way or the other. Have you ever seen that? It's like some guy, he's from the neutral planet and they're voting and the guy, he's all dressed in gray and he's just blane character. He says that he says I'm from the neutral planet and we have no strong opinions one way or the other. But the funny thing about that video is it's just that like seven second clip but the upvotes or the likes and dislikes for it are like at a hundred thousand but they're dead even and like I think it's at like five hundred thousand. Is it people? Everyone's in the joke.

Yeah, everybody is like to keep it even keeping it in the balance. Yeah, someone get a screenshot. I'm curious what that is. What is it? What is at this point? Newt all of a sudden. It's so funny. That's really funny.

You couldn't write that. It was you could. You actually could. Yeah, but you you could now because it happened. But how would you come up with that? I don't know. The coding. I already have feelings one way or the other.

Ssshh. All right, it is at 269,079 likes and 269,079 dislikes. No. You heard? I don't know if I have voted. Give it a vote. I can't, it's been balanced. I don't want to fuck with it.

Do it. Well, if you do it, I'm sure there's someone watching it right now ready to- I'm gonna do it right now. You should do it. That's the kind of thing. It's like, it's some people would see that. That's kind of person I am. Other people see it and they have to mess it up. Yeah. It's like when the Ricky Giver is tweeted, if nobody retweets this tweet, I'll give $50,000. It's like four times and increased the amount and insane

amount of like money to carry. It's always somebody. It was a great social experience. Like why it's almost like this is why we can't retweet it, it's just, it's always somebody that's not good enough. It was a great social experience of like, why it's almost like this is why we can't have nice things. In anonymity, nothing good will ever happen. Oh man, wow, it's crazy. But if there's people in a room, and he said, if anyone objects to this 50 grand, I'm gonna give, raise your head, nobody would do it. No, nobody would do it, you're right.

Well, maybe they would, you just have to be a real prick, like a prick in a 90s movie. That's my favorite thing right now to do is Because people's like through their like anonymity or even just like behind the guys of like a user named Renavatar They'll say whatever they want and I love going to like YouTube videos Ryan men or something like that and finding those people and then striking up a conversation with them It's fantastic because most of them like completely make a u, because once you confront them with you, they most don't just be like, okay, I'm just kidding. Yeah.

Yeah. It's because of the confidence is so weak. It's just that mainly just really young kids, or like 12 or 13. That is the problem with the anonymous environment online is that you just don't know what age anybody is. It's like you don't realize, I'm arguing with an 11 year old man.

Yeah, brings 86. A four thousand. A lot of those. And you don't know that I made four million views Yeah, on that yeah, yeah, it's I monetized either They're just liking it. All right. Go for it. There you go. I gotta go like it Okay, well, I think it's about time to wrap it up. Is there anything else that anyone else would like to cover before we Finish out today. That was pretty cool. I'll leave one rubber tree. Guess what I was saying? It was a good one.

It got significantly less cool when John got in the seat. That's always a good one. Yeah, we start strong in finish week. Yeah, that's the Rishi pocket. Should we say what Gus always says is watch sports ball tomorrow at five o'clock, patch, Wednesday. No, sports will five o'clock, patch Wednesday, 4 o'clock on the spot at 5 o'clock. There you go. On Thursday. Also, the other thing that Gus always says, which is, I hate everything and people, especially. Alright, you want to thank our special guest, Mr.
