Welcome to the Rookie Podcast this week brought to you by ring stamps.com and experience. I'm Gus. I'm Blake. I'm Barbara. I'm Bernie Ghost. And I'm Gus. What were you clapping about? We were getting pumped. Yeah. I like that. The crew who has never clapped or made a sound other than counting down right before we started clapping

right before we went live. And I started freaking out when the whole was wrong. What's wrong? Why are people enjoying their job? What's wrong with you? What happened? I just pulled a muscle clapping. Yeah.

Yeah, Barbara got an injury. Not let her tell you, Blaine, but she got an injury at the gym. And it's like, the way you always get injuries at the gym, which is just doing something stupid. Doing nothing gym related. What do you?

I had just trained that morning. Hell yeah. And felt good, did a lot of like upper body workout and stuff like that. And my trainer's like, great job. Like, let's go sign out. We're all done for the day. And he like picks up my water bottle for me

and hands it to me. And I decided to go like this to get it. And in doing that, this like went, and just pulled itself. And I was like, yeah, like, I went down and pain. He's like, what the hell just happened to you? And I'm like, it's like, I'll see you next week. Thanks.

Just like your arms like, yeah. I didn't think we were, I couldn't figure out why my shoulder, where my right shoulder was messed up for so long period of time. And I was going through with like, I went to a doctor, like an orthopedist figure, if I need to fucking surgery on my shoulder and we went to this whole range of motion thing, totally fine going out in front of me, totally fine going outside. But if I put it backwards, which is something you never do, like straight back, then I could put no weight on it at all, like nothing, but you can't do

anyway, really, but it was like even you press on it, it would hurt like hell. I'm like, he's like, what are you doing? It's got your hand going back, straight back like this. Your arm's straight back. I was like, I can't think of anything. And then I put my arm back and thought, what do I do like this? I was like, oh, it's from wrestling with the kids

in the back seat. Like when they drop something and pick and shit up, it's like just that motion of reaching into the back seat constantly like a stoplight. I damaged my shoulder for like a long period of time. That was Andy who fixed that. The dad shoulder. I had dad shoulder.

Well, dad shoulders went like, you have a little kid and they get like that goop on your arm because the kids are just sticking. You'll be getting that. I can't wait real quick. Two weeks ago, I was gonna go meet up some friends at the climbing gym and like, I set my alarm to like, it was like 10.

I wait a stay up way too late the night before. So I would like, set it to 10. It was supposed state up way too late the night before. So I was like, said it to 10, you're supposed to meet him at 10.30 and I hit snooze and then I realized that I had slept in and I had like 10, 15 minutes to get to the gym and I got up so quickly that I pulled my neck. And then I was just like, oh, and then I was like, I had stiff neck and then I went and climbed and like,

I was like, don't do that. I know, and I tried to power through, which is like the number one thing you don't do. Yeah. And I'm pretty angry like that. I wanna see if my knee can crack on my arm. I'm like, oh nice. That sounded good.

GYUK. ASMR. Ugh. No, not quite. My secret to avoiding these kinds of injuries is to not go to the gym. I've never hurt myself at the gym. What have you had at home?

Good question. Yes, but I can't avoid going home. Like give us an example of an injury that you've had. You could avoid injuries that you'll get at home by going to the gym. I'll see. But no, I have 0% lifetime gym injuries. Have you ever had stitches from something

that wasn't like a medical procedure? Like I gotta go get stitches. From some, no? Like I got like I cut my hand or my felon split my head open or something. Really? Because that's happened to be like five or six times. At the gym. Maybe you ever been knocked out? You had an endoscopy. There's an RTA about it.

Oh, because they, but they, Oh, that kind of knocked out. Yeah, but not like in a violent way. No, you can't never like got knocked out. No, no, no, no, you were put under. Put under. I thought that's what you meant. What, haven't you always dreamed of like,

like what if you were, you're tall? Like you and Bernie are both these tall dudes. You know what I'm just tall thing? You're tall. I'm not tall. You're on this thing lately with not being tall. It's pretty You're almost tall, then you're tall. I'm not tall. You're on this thing lately, would not be in tall. It's pretty small. It's not pretty small.

It's not lately, I'm not. No, no, no, I am. Like it's 5'10". But I think the camera... 5'10 is not, like any, that's tall. That's like average, right? It's like, it's... So like the...

But because you're back up with dating, which probably brings it up a lot more. Yeah, dating, it's, it height is such a big deal on dating. And like, it's never bothered me. Like, I think like, when we was recent to our friend was as tall as I was, so whenever she had heels on, she was taller than me, but that has never been a concern in mine.

Okay. But it's a big deal for certain women and it's just like, it's a big deal to a lot of dudes. The average, what American height for men is 69.7 inches. So it's nice. Five, nine point seven. Yeah, five, it's nice. 5.9.7. Yeah, 5.9.7. OK.

You're going to have to write around that ballpark, man. Put your above edge. What's Arnold? That's a question. What's Arnold? I think he's six. One, maybe just six. Let's see.

The idea that I could look Arnold Schwarzenegger in the eye just seems wrong. Six, two. Six, two. All right. There you go. Not too much of a shot. But you seem with like Crease Mabdu and Jabar

and I'm going to join. From the trix now. He looks so strong. I'll compare to them. Yeah. But that's why I was, I've noticed this. You've said this before is because I do think it's a big deal to a lot of ladies online, but it's a much bigger deal to lots of guys.

I think in dating in general, especially with guys, it's whatever they feel like they don't have. Like you're a very good looking dude. Great shape. Kiss, kiss, kiss. I can't, this comes. But for some reason you're hearing you say like, oh, I wish I was taller or whatever, every day. For people you're dating.

Coffee. I'm so fucking rude. I'm 100% happy. Okay, round. That's good. One of the worst ways I ever injured myself was, I can't even remember what it was. I think it was maybe in my yard, it was in yard work.

And I did this thing where I moved something to the side with my foot. Like I put the inside of my foot on the side of it and pushed it to the left. Like took my right foot and hooked it and pushed it left. And it's just like, it did something to my hip. That was done. Is that an abductor?

Like an abductor? So weird. Inductor. It's an abductor and an abductor. I'm not sure. Yeah. But yeah, that's a weird muscle that we heard it has to do with every other bodily function.

If you, like, let's say, as it can happen sometimes, entertainment career, boom, all over done. Would you ever go into physical training or anything like that? Physical therapy? No. Physical related? I just don't have, I don't think I have the patience to go through the medical school. And I'm like, all right, so I'm not going to go down that path. I'm a very kind of like selfish person and I like fitness because it's something that I enjoy personally.

And we'll be training other people and having to like give an extra amount of patience to another person. It's pretty like I couldn't be. All right, two more sets, you know. It's not your style. No, I will only do it for very close friends and right now Andrew Roses and I,

one of our other writers on the comedy group is he's going to the gym with me pretty often. He's kicking ass, it's kind of hard. I'm glad you guys are doing that. So people need some time. I feel like you guys turned Chris around you and Aaron Morky kind of turned Chris too. Like I never thought of Chris being a guy in good shape.

And it's one of these things like, it's terrible how first impression is kind of stick. But Chris is in tremendous shape. Yeah, he's in great shape. He's in really great shape. Yeah, he's incredibly athletic. It's like a first impressions kind of stick, but Chris is in tremendous shape. Yeah, he's a great shape. He's in really great shape. He's incredibly athletic. It's like a first pat of me. You never think of shit as ripped. But it's shit can fuck you up.

Yeah, that's exactly how Chris der Mell is. I know, like shit is ripped. Like listen to Joe Rogan. So he runs everywhere he goes. Yep. He's got to put weights on him and he's set. Maybe he's wearing something under his jeans, who knows? I, we got injured a little bit on Friday.

I don't know if we should talk about it, but we were doing something for a short, which Mary not actually worked out in the end, but I got like, Chad's just abusing, boy. That's what I said. You kind of look like you're losing a little mass bling. They're just fucking with you

because they know it all trickery. It's hard to show this one without giving an upskirt to the audience. Hey, don't zoom if I'm asking for a little nap. They're just fucking with you because they know it all trickery. Yeah, that's hard to show. This one without giving an up skirt to the audience. Hey, hey, don't zoom in on that. Oh, is it a little knee injury? That's a good thing. But there's like, I haven't, it's like I fell off my bike. It's like the kind of injuries I have with this thing. And I was just trying to,

No, your knuckles are like jacked up. Look, you look like you got no visor fight. Yeah, it's bad. Maybe I did. Maybe I'm lying. Maybe I actually got into a fight. You'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it.

I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it.

I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it.

I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna get it. I'm not gonna did it. I think that story about her, that she told about her story. I'm a massive fight. I always love that story. It was ridiculous. Great. You show enough knee, by the way. They could advertise you a ninja's old channel if you make it a little more risky. Yeah, what the hell happened with that?

Well, he left, he left Twitch to exclusively stream on Mixer and made a big deal about it. And I think there was about two weeks ago. I think it was about two weeks ago. Yeah. It was a little, it was like the middle last week I remember because we we talked about in that being number one on the platform and leaving We talked and impact number one has and as part of that we talked about PewDiePie and just like general thoughts about PewDiePie

And boy, I've gotten fucking hammered about that both, you know, good and bad But there are a lot of people who are and rightfully so he's got a lot of fans, you know that defending that racist piece of shit Yeah, I see. I didn't want to go down. Didn't want to go down my jet. I'm not gonna fuck a shy away from that. I fuck a rat. Don't say racist, anti-Semitic.

Wait, what the fuck? Can you guys fill, what was it now? Did you do another Nazi thing? No, I thought another minute. Did you do a thing? We were just the culmination of all the past. We did! I can't even run it up.

We were just talking about the impact, the biggest person on a platform can have on the platform, which is important to everyone else who's on the platform. And whether or not it was justified, and there's a lot of people who don't feel it was justified, is that a guy who's making jokes, whether or not they're racist and anti-Semitic, they don't feel like that brand should be pulling out

of YouTube as a whole because that gets reported on because the media's overblowing it. Yeah. That's, that's, their side is I understand it. That's what they're telling me. And we were just talking about it and they thought we were perpetuating a myth

that he had made racist and anti-Semitic jokes. We thought of myth. When he had, like he has, clearly done it. He's clearly done it. You can look it up. It's documented. Yes, it is documented that he's done it. And you can argue whether or not he should be able

to make those jokes or whether or not they were even jokes. But one in particular was like, he said a very racially explosive word in a fit of rage, like while playing a video game. So that was like. That's kind of says a lot of that. Which like it doesn't easily slip out if it's not a word that you maybe more often use

than most people. So where does this dictionary? Yeah, it doesn't have to be the case. We're off on this tangent again. This is what always happens. Yeah. And the reason that we've been doing this for 11 years. No, no, we're off on this tangent.

This is what happens with number one on the platform. Somebody who's number one on the platform is every conversation then threads through that person. That's the impact it has on everybody else. That's the whole point of trying to make, right? Like, there's a lot of people who stream on Twitch. It's not all about this ninja guy. That's the impact it has on everybody else. That's the whole point I'm trying to make, right? Like there's a lot of people who stream on Twitch. It's not all about this ninja guy. It's not about him leaving.

It doesn't mean the platform's gonna fall apart because he's not there. But now there's this whole kerfuffle of, they're using ninja's old account page, or I guess he must have- He must have owned it, he didn't abandon it, right? But somehow, he's very upset because they were using, I saw a post on Twitter, which is him, it looks like him in a car. I can never play away

Not to get off of tangent. Can you never fucking tell anymore if anyone's in the driver's seat or in the passenger seat when they're making Some kind of Face the camera. It could be look good. But it looks like he's in the past Instagram, but a car is kind of a symmetrical environment if you don't include the steering wheel. So it's impossible to tell, unless you know the guy's face well enough, to know he's flipped.

Or unless you see the steering wheel. Unless you see the steering wheel. So is the right side of the left side of his hair green? That'll let us know. Oh, that's the point. We gotta do a vertical. I like it. You know, this you don't road we're heading down here.

We're trying to prove that ninja is Videoing while driving. I don't want to get involved I don't want to start that bull. He's an up. I don't care if you look up mixer ninja photo. It's just a bunch of like Blenders The ninja mix Play a little bit of the video He can explain it way better than I can Little jabs. We felt like but didn't matter. We want to stay professional but now For those who don't know if you go to twitch.com to Eastlash Ninja they advertise other channels

They don't do this for anyone else that's offline by the way just me He's in the car also other streamers who have signed with other platforms whose stream and channel still remains the same. You can see their rods, they don't promote other streams, they don't promote other popular channels, but they do on mine. I've been streaming for eight years to build my brand, to build that channel. 14.5 million followers. And they were still using my channel to promote other streamers. Well now, there was a porn account that was number one being recommended on my channel to promote other streamers. That's wonderful. Well, now there was a porn account

that was number one being recommended on my channel. I have no say in any of this stuff. So this is like, this is the line, this is the straw. We're trying to get the whole channel taken down to begin with, or at least not promote. Okay, that's our very streamers. I think it's very good to get in anyway. Cut the feed, Eric!

But the whole thing was, it's like, the headline was that Twitch showed porn, which they did. I saw a screenshot at least that somebody else had documented. I saw a screenshot where they had a bunch of links to other streamers. It's basically like YouTube, they're recommended videos. And I get what he's saying that it's really frustrating.

I guess Twitch doesn't do this normally, but it's really frustrating when you have something you've been working out for years, in our case like 16 years, our YouTube channel for 13 years, 10 or 12 or 13 years ago. Wow. Yeah. Somewhere around there.

And it's like you make all these videos and it's like hey, somebody came and watched one of our videos, it would make sense to show them one of our videos or at least be able to choose one of the videos that are recommended next. Or at least half of them are from the same channel. YouTube does absolutely doesn't do that.

And Twitch is the same way where their job is to pay attention to the platform as a whole. And you can see, this was his follow up to the tweet. This wouldn't even have been an issue if they didn't use my channel to promote others in the first place. And it's like, I don't, that's the problem. It's like as big as Ninja gets,

if he doesn't make his own destination and he's not in charge of that stuff, he's really just an account. Yeah, the platform is seeking to protect the platform. That's their whole job is to protect the platform, right? It's going to be. It's, you know, not granted. By showing some high quality pornography. That's where they lose that. There's nothing you can say at that point. You know what I mean? I understand Twitch wanting to keep people in their ecosystem, but then when they start doing that, like isn't that even a violation of their own terms of terms?

Right. Isn't he mentioning that they don't do that on anyone else's channel? It's just his. Correct. So it's not something they normally do. Yeah, that's a little sketchy. They do something they normally did, whatever.

And this is in light of his recent departure and going back to his, going to make sure. I think he thinks it was intentionally. Yeah, I think that that's done that way. That seems like they made, like they, well, they had a dead channel. They're number one channels now dead, right? But that intentionally advertised not so great channels there.

I think they just put up like some, I think they probably did an algorithm thing and the, I'm guessing I can't imagine that kind of much of the data that they did. To which said, let's put the porn thing at the top. You know how it is when you read a poll online and people like, hey, let's vote for Hitler did nothing wrong or something like that.

So try to pee by. I'm just going to shut up. I don't want to talk about this stuff anymore. I don't want to talk about anybody. No, but that's the problem. This part of the problem online is people will bully you. When you clearly state a fact, like Pewdiepie's a huge race piece of shit, they will come bully you. When you clearly state a fact, like PewDiePie's a huge race piece of shit,

they will come after you, despite the fact there is clear evidence of wrongdoing. Well, racist is a subjective term, though. That's saying, you see. No matter what the stuff is. You could say he made a racist joke or a racial joke. He made comments that weren't even jokes that were racist. That's where the argument comes in.

That's what I'm saying. That's where the argument comes in. I'm not saying I don't argument comes in. I'm not saying I don't agree with you. I'm not saying that at all. I'm just saying that we shouldn't be bullied into not calling racism racism. We shouldn't let people who perpetuate these things make us be quiet about calling it out when we see it. Where's the crew to clap now?

Huh, y'all are all quiet back there? Like church mice. Yeah. I'm so afraid. Somebody silently went like this. That's what I was talking about. So we're on the controversial bar. Thank you. We're going to get a bunch of tweets anyway about this stuff. I should probably show this really cool thing that I got recently was supposed to be a gift

at RTX but I didn't have time for it because I we couldn't hook up. Oh shit. Nishi, she gave me this. It's a, she is real. She's a taxidermist on her own. So this is an actual, this is a rooster. That the wind up teeth are fake. They're not real.

She made this, just a spoil that. But she made this really cool rooster teeth mount. I know this is not gonna be everything. I don't have any mounted animals in my house and there's gonna be some people who are upset about this. But I figured this is a bird, you know. And she ate the bird. She told me so it's like, it's like, not a bird with the waist. Yeah, it's like, it's actually been used. Whereas, the rest of the birds that we eat typically don't go through all. And now it's being used even more.

What's up, yo? That's awesome. I just want to say thanks for this. If you want to check out our work, I got an issue's niche on Instagram. It's an I, S H I and-I, and then niche, and I-C-H. That's super cool. He's a niche. I say niche. I feel like I say niche. I say niche. They never tell you about the time I was attacked by a rooster.

Go ahead. In Puerto Rico. No, it was like a little boy. I was, I want to say six or seven, and I was visiting my grandparents house, and they had like a little farm in the back. And one morning my grandmother told me to go feed the chickens. So I went out there, and I got a little chicken feed in a bucket, and I was out kind of throwing it on the back. And one morning my grandmother told me to go feed the chickens. So I went out there and I got a little chicken feed in a bucket and I was out kind of throwing it

on the ground. And some of the roosters get really aggressive when you have the food. So one of them wanted all of the food. So it jumped. I mean, they've got like their claws, their talons. Yeah. And it started attacking my leg. Can I pause you for just one second? So one of the chat asked the rooster, they said, is that a reference to Bernie's old hat? No, it's a reference to the name of our company. What website are you watching this? I'm on Keston.

Are you a lunatic? Yeah. Can I? Yeah, that person. Yes, all right. I didn't get your name. That's the story. But thankfully, I didn't get your name.

So one of the roosters started attacking me. And like with its talons, and it cut up my leg pretty bad. I didn't get any stitches though. No, I was a little boy. So like I started crying and I ran back inside. And my leg was all bloody. And my grandfather got so fucking mad at you. At the rooster.

Really? Yeah. He was like, come with me. And we went back outside and he was like, which one was it? I was like, it was that one. You could and he was like which one was it like it was that one you can tell yeah And you walked up to it immediately killed it started plucking it and we had it for lunch What it's like There was there was no fucking around it's like he immediately cut its head off

Took all the feathers off butchered it and was like all right. We're gonna eat it. Did he like pop the neck No, he just cut it off. Dude, if I- Grandpa. If I did that, and that's probably something I actually I would do, if that means he's gonna eat one chicken that day. Right, it's like your- Might as well.

Why not, you know, Vendetta? I would look at you though, how old are you? I was like six or seven. I would look at you dead in the eye, six years old, I always said, now you and I, we have a life debt. At some point in the future, I'm gonna come and I'm gonna ask you

for something and you have to do it. I saved your life today and killed this bird. Did you think it was cool? I thought it was awesome. Yeah, I think it was cool as the basics. You know? So is that rooster in reference to your story then? Thanks Eric.

When we went to Japan, we went to that deer park or whatever. Where is that place? Nara. Man, those deer fucking assholes. I almost got stabbed by one that had the antlers still, and I had to grab him by the antlers. I know what you all keep saying that. I like that just a deer.

I had the most pleasant experience there. They were fucking dick. They were like subdued. I thought they were all drugged or something. There was one that was really dope, and he like was on the other side of the street and then he waited for the cross light to get light up and then it went and then he just walked across and we passed each other like row the middle of the deer park. Yeah and they were just perfectly normal dude see that one's head-butting miles zaz with his tongue out

it looks like he's like he's like he's at the end of the story but right after Gus finishes Ruchistory I was looking at the chat and I saw TPG in there, Tim, who works for us. And all here, that was mad real. Sorry. No, you're good. I had a good time with those deer like they were so chill. Well, to the point where like, grandma's going to bar, they heard about them. They knew who you had the stink of animal venom.

They knew when Gus and Granddad killing them, hanging them. Is it because they become, like people come up to them and feed them all the time, so now they feel so entitled to food from people that they get like, they bully you? Well, they do the bowel thing. They're like, you know, you know,

this is cute. And then eventually they're just like, doing this and then like, I don't have any food. You like hold out your hands and then they're just like I'm doing the thing. Yeah, yeah, headbutt. The warning signs where you crack up around the park. Oh yeah, like warning you that the deer can be aggressive. Yeah, and they were. I almost like lost it. Testicle or something. I was like fucking, oh, I just seen I follow her on Instagram It gets cool life. I think she has a lot of great posts a decent amount of stuff. I buy I buy because I found out find out about it through her Like almost every drone. I got to figure out how to get on this the good side of that DJ DJI company because they like send her like

Every Whole going all the way back to the iPhone. Yeah, that's how she made her mark was that. But she was tech heavy. She was doing this cool thing at Yellowstone with like this like really cool camping spot. So it's like for people who want to go camping but don't want to give up like a nice hotel

which kind of speaks purpose of camping for a lot of people. But if it opens up the park to more people or that experience and more people that's not necessarily a bad thing. Anyway, she was going on a hike as part of this, like her adventure in Yellowstone, I think it was Yellowstone. And she showed she had her satellite phone, just in case she gets into jam. And then she had a big fucking can of bear spray. I saw it. Yeah, you see, she's like a straight man.

Is that all bears? Yes. Which has got to be like, probably what six thousand skullville or something like that Like normal mace is four or four million sorry normal mace is like four million skullville And I think bear mace is like even got to be worse than that. It's gotta be so bears like jalapenos then It's what you're saying. They love them. There's only 1200 skullville for yeah, how do I know this is stupid skullville scale Let's take a broom in my brains. Yeah, yeah Anyway, it's cute. You know it's not it's like cute and fun and everything like that.

And she's like, yeah, she's a watch out. In case I see a bear, then here's a picture of a mountain, here's here on the trail. Then there's a fucking video of a bear. Like it's close enough to where she can shoot it with a smartphone. It's a big fucking bear.

She's like a bear. And you know she lived because she made the post, but I'm like, that's scary as fuck. Unless that bear sees that pose and is offended and comes back to get her. Oh, exactly. I thought, but I'm like, that's scary as fuck. Unless that bear sees that post, as he defended and comes back to get her. I was like, I thought maybe the bear was like, there might have been some barrier that wasn't being filled by that.

Oh, no. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.

Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Bairys and Bairys have to be on the other side of the barrier. There's a Washington DC.

Thank you, Ring for sponsoring this episode of the RESTEE podcast. All right, you find the thing, Bernan? No, it's past. So I mean, he's expired. Yeah. And she didn't the video. The barrier. I tried to find it too. No, she doesn't have one of a bear. This looks like some kind of enclosure, but the other one was like her on a hiking trail. And there's just a bear, but it's a big ass like, oh, you're right. I was thinking about this one for the day. You're thinking about that one, yeah. I mean, I can, I'll see if I can get her sentence to me. But it's crazy. It's crazy.

It's just like, I was like, I know she's fine. She made the Instagram post, but I'm like, get out of there. What are you doing? You're insane. But she got the bear's face. She's fine. Do it for the gram.

Dude, that's what they say. I mean, you gotta stand there anyway. What do you do with a bear? What is in there? Walk backwards. Yes, as they come at you. You're supposed to make you gotta stand there anyway. What do you do with a bear? What is in there? Walk backwards? It says they come at you. You're supposed to make you look big. Yeah, yeah.

If you climb a tree or fucking idiot, apparently. Yeah, because they can just, they can whip up the tree. Oh, you try to outrun them. That's really bad. Yeah, they can't run like 30 miles an hour or something. Fucking fat. You just try to make yourself big and then just stay still. And like, yeah, you face them.

Make a lot of noise. Well, I think you make noise so that you don't surprise them. That way, like, they know they hear you coming when you're walking. Like, if you're walking in the woods you're loud on purpose that I can't and a morphine any animal. I think a bear or a lion would be one of them Where's the fucking cool dude? It's a really specific wish Gary and big plus they can sleep like all winter long They just like pack their ass so they don't hit and eat a bunch and then there's three layers Is that what you want to do? You can do that. I don't get any eat a bunch and then there's three layers. That was. Is that what you want to do?

How do you? Yeah, you're gonna do that. I didn't. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's called sabbatical. Okay. Yeah. I just asked Jeff for some advice. Yeah. I was super confident he's about to cheese. If I could be any animal in the world, I would absolutely be Gus' grandfather. That is like apex. Dude, I have never killed any thing that has hurt my kids. Like I even like a plane. It's like stuck him with a thorn or anything like that. That's a but said that's a big move dude. I had a

a weird thing happen this weekend where so I was walking I got as weird. I was going into my apartment and I live in this like long hallway and then I was walking, I got, I was weird. I was going into my apartment and I live in this like long hallway and then I was walking down the hallway and then oh, Jesus. And then like each door, there's doors to different units and I'm walking to mine. I'm explaining this real bad. I'm like an alien explaining a apartment.

People, but so then a door opens and I have my headphones in because I'm listening to a podcast. We heard a hardcore history. Yeah, that's great. I'm listening to a podcast. We're here hardcore history. Yeah, that's great. I'm going, you're going to the thing they're doing in Austin. I'm trying to get into tomorrow. I actually might have an extra ticket on Wednesday. I bought three tickets.

It's like eight o'clock at night. Eight o'clock? Mm-hmm. I wanna go. Apparently he's here. They're there. Why don't we explain what the fuck we're talking about? Hardcore history is a podcast.

No, I don't listen to it. But they have this VR event in Austin right now called War Remains. Yeah. Everyone I know who's been to it has been like, this is an amazing experience. And it's just a weird coincidence. My son, my oldest son, JD, is a huge World War I buff. And there's like weird here because like all this World War I stuff. We're like a hundred years away from it. It's fucking right. Like a hundred years past the end. Yeah, so let's but I want to ask you come back to blame I'll come back to you guys because I want to talk to you about They come back to me Peter. Hey, how do you feel? I want to get only I want to so get in a depth and about world or one because we're gonna listen to it

It's just like it's insane like is that one is? They talk about like, he identifies like specific wars and like in time periods and then just goes super in depth and he goes into the human element of them where it's like, I think he had a quote where he was like, I think Stalin or Lenard somebody said it where they were like, you know, 1200 people dead, that's a tragedy. A million people dead, that's a statistic. Right, if you think about it's like,

you see these numbers, I think it's even lower number. It's like three people die, that's a tragedy. But if a million people die, it's a statistic. these numbers. I think it's even lower number. It's like three people die. That's a tragedy. If a million people die, it's a statistic. It's a statistic because you can't wrap your head and you lose the human element of how many people that is. But then he goes in the depth and talks about the smell and just the sights and just these really visceral experiences

these soldiers went through. Where was that? You were walking down the hallway. The door opened. And you had your notes on it. Okay, so I'm listening to my headphones, I'm listening to hardcore history, great, great, great podcast.

You should listen to it after you listen to this. And then a door opens and then the hallway that blameless. And then the hallway that I live in and then a dog comes out. And it's like a 30, 40 pound like white fluffy dog that's like a curls, I don't know if it's a poodle. Beach on? I don't know. Anyways, I feel like a story can be five hours long.

It runs at me and it starts clawing the shit out of my legs. Oh my God. And biting down here and just like fucking nipping at me and barking and then the owner is just standing there like, ah, and then I have my headphones in, so I'm carrying about World War I wanted. I'm like, ah, ah, ah, ah, and then a even bigger black lab dog comes out.

I think there's a problem. Yeah, and then I'm like, well, I'm dead. I'm gonna have to like, finger when these dogs and the butt hole to get them off me. You've heard that, right? That's a defensive strategy. You finger a dog. Burn it goes from the hole.

No, I know. Yeah. Anyways, you finger the dog and the butt hole and then they get away from you. They're like, nope. You gotta have reached for the butt hole though. Yeah. Well, it's a big dog.

Yeah, a great dog. You gotta grab it and then you just gotta finger the butt. Anyways, so this dog is freaking out. Another bigger dog comes out and I'm like, I'm fucking dead, my generals are gonna get ripped off. And then he actually jumps in between us and then nips at that one and then he stands there and he looks at me and I was like, good booby.

And then the owner didn't say sorry. Or anything. Really? She just grabbed the dog, rain inside. I actually supposed to have reported if a dog bites you. I don't want a dog to be a dog. I know. I agree with Barnes.

I don't want that either, but like. They got to monitor it to make sure it doesn't have rabies or something. The owner should be profusely apologizing. I don't have any. I don't have any. I'm fine. It was just a stupid dog.

Yeah, but it's a dog bite. Well, you can. Was it a nipper or a bite? It was, it was a bite. Like it made, yeah yeah it clawed it I don't know if it drew blood and I'm not gonna get into too much detail Because some people like in white nighting me into killing this dog cuz I'm not gonna fucking do that It was just a dog that freaked out and is probably protecting its owner

They're gonna dox you they're gonna find out that hallway that you Yeah, I like the story started with trying to explain what the part building that story was all over the place I liked it Well, he was gonna tack my dog There you go. Are you okay? But no one killed it. I was on the dog open the door It's all these things. There were so many weird tensions. He was like mr. R. No, the dog I just saw it once upon a time in Hollywood. So that's where I got my story telling dude

Everyone and my gym is saying I have to go see it and it's just I can't I've been on time to go see it. I leaned over right I leaned over to my date and was like I don't know what the fuck is going on it, but this is great I'm gonna apologize, but not apologize for something that is I have to keep all my devices on Full blast non-silent because at any moment in the next two weeks Ashley could be texting me or calling me and I got to be able to answer that really But that means I'm gonna get other gotta be able to answer that. That's really selfish. But that means I'm gonna get other pings and stuff like that.

So Gus, I'm kind of... Are you been for 30 minutes so far, you've been fine? I'm kind of sorry. This just shows nobody ever wants to talk to you. Yeah, that's what you're gonna be like. Do you want me to text you right now? Nope, I'm good. We, um...

But you said, can I real quick though? Yeah. You're saying you stick your finger up the butt of a dog to break up the break up a fight or keep it from attacking you? Yeah, then you gotta wash your hands. There was a guy who did that in a stadium fight. You know, like we're... Like, Doug is finger up a dog's butt? Close attacking you. Then you gotta wash your hands. There was a guy who did that in a stadium fight. You know, like, we're like, Duck is fingering up a dog's butt.

Close, no, no, stadium. Where these two guys are fighting, I'm trying to fight because I was sitting in the air, it was so fucking funny, where these two guys were fighting, but they're fighting on different rows, which is always a bad idea. Because you're about to hide around.

Someone else, the higher ground. Yeah, like, yeah, way higher ground. And like, close proximity to the kicking in the face, or whatever. But these guys were fighting their fighting across to your rows and then a guy a row further down from that comes up behind the guy at the lower row who's facing upwards and just reaches up

and grabs him by the balls and squeezes it immediately stops the fight on both sides. And he was like, who the fuck is this? Who the fuck is this? It's a tactic. It works like a charm. Everybody eats it. Did you ever make them everybody Everybody on the new guy

Like that guy's a ball girl for him first. It was an old dude, you know It was like he was an older guy. It's like just knows how to stop this thing is like I got this and just like reaches up And Eric I'll try to find a friend. I'll forward it to you Now I know what to do if I'm ever in your fight. Oh here it is. Oh, here it is. There you go Come to any of us. Oh, it was like hey, what's going on? if I'm ever in your fight. Oh, here it is. Oh, here it is. There you go. It comes in. Oh, it was like, hey, what's going on? Dude, it was like stunts. It deactivated it. Yeah. Did that look like a browns game? It's like a clip on the cat. Browns jets. Browns jets. Like I look up browns brown. Browns jets,

balls, grease. But it's like, that's thinking, right? You can get in there and throw some punches and do some damage. Like Barbara would have done clearly with her busted up knuckles. Or you just go in, like just squeeze the guys balls and it's like, fight's fucking up. You just gotta get to them. You have the perfect angle coming from behind. You have to play again. The guy had such a perfect look on his face.

It was amazing. If they haven't available. It's coming to a good. Ground set. Here we coming. Ground set. St. Fight. His body. Tense is up. Everybody.

Everybody. Wow. It was in total control of that situation. Yeah. That guy. If that guy had been a rooster, that'll do it eight. Yeah. I put a minute over. I'm gonna kill you and each you we had

Over the weekend, you know, we put out that video that we filmed at a standing comic gun barber Yeah, yeah, we went out there and we interviewed a bunch of people We asked them questions that we brought up during the podcast you didn't okay and ask them to a video You clarify some arguments you didn't ask the one question. I wanted did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. You did. All you would elite the whole cast of black leather and butter. They say yes. That's who you're interviewing. They have no idea. They have no idea. But out of touch with reality. This was a last minute, well not last minute.

This was a change from our original idea for what we were gonna do out there with these people at San Diego Comic Con. A few days before we went out, I'd read on Reddit that there's a subgenre of erotica of dinosaur porn. And I thought, oh, it'd be funny, you know, is it like furries or what? Well, I wasn't sure what it was.

So I thought, wouldn't it be funny if we go up there and, you know, do we have those covers? We, I wouldn't be funny if we went out there and like, they seem like totally ridiculous. So we thought, oh, you know. Race, raptor, but invasion. So we thought, maybe it'd be funny if we read some of this. It'll be like kind of comedic and we can read this with them

and we can wear dinosaur masks while we do this. Oh, oh my God. But then we, I, I'm sorry to say, I bought a couple of the books. Good. Why? Did you really play part of your face with a credit card on Amazon? You're on the grid now, motherfucker.

God damn it. Yeah, and they are extremely violent and graphic. They're very graphic. They're very graphic. So graphic that I'm not going to read any here. Really? Yeah. It's too much.

Is it not legally allowed? No, it's not even that. It's just super graphic. You know what? This reminds you go. I don't want to like open up the ninja can of worms again, but watch seeing these two in these masks. And you're talking about that,

it also reminds me of like, I found out something really disturbing about Patreon, because our friend, Jessica Negri, and several of our friends who have very, very high profile accounts on Patreon, I went to Patreon to like look up their accounts and see like what they were doing, like kind of curious on a business level,

like what they were doing, I wanna see the either structured it all, and you can't search for them. No, you cannot find them. They're not searchable on the platform. So what is the purpose of being then on Patreon for them? You still have all the system and mechanisms to fulfill rewards and processing.

So credit card processing. Yeah, credit card processing. That's also the allocating of users to different tiers. So everyone who's ever gone to Jessica Negri's Patreon has gone because she linked from some other source. We have directly. You literally can't find her. No, like if you type Jessica Negri in a Patreon, you will not find her. They she's gone.

Like, if you put the direct link, I believe you can. Like if you put patreon.com slash Jessica Negri, but you have to know it. If you don't know it, right? Or click on the link from her Instagram or something like that But I can't do that on the app so I literally can't even like look her up on the app I guess if I was a backer or was it a patron Then it would be in my account attached to it. I could do it that way. I don't know man

That just seems really wrong to me. That just seems really all the steps Yeah, this goes back to the thing up to it's like It's what do you get from the platform versus what is the platform get from you, you know? The smell bad. What do they smell like? I'm not putting one of those on. What's Gumroad? What? What's Gumroad? Is that like a new Patreon?

Gumroad? Oh, I don't know. Gumroad? I don't know. I want to say it's a place to upload digital photos. Okay. I think it's a photo website. got it. It could be wrong. Yeah, it's really bad in this. Yeah, I don't know how it's answer. The listeners. What colors at mask? This one. No, yours. No, we don't have. Um, it's like a greenish yellow. Okay. Interesting. Or a yellowish green. We got to use the greenish yellow or yellowish green. That's also not the color by the way We could hold that mask up to the color. It's a yellowish green

We got a huge debate again, which has been something this debate that's been raging for me actually I mentioned my friend Scott He's been on the podcast before We would play Street Fighter 2 in the like the late 90s and we would get in these arguments as the what color Blanca from Street Fighter 2 was. And I'm in the in the minority here. Oh, is this it? Pull that up. So this is the character from Street Fighter 2. This is Blanca. You guys can look this up online if you listen to podcast audio version. Huh. Blanca is in every depiction of Blanca is green. They make him bright green, like a deep green.

In the fucking game, he's yellow. In Street Fighter 2, where Blanca first appears, so right there, you're saying that's yellow. That's a fucking, you're saying that's yellow? Juice, not, what color is that? To me, that's a yellowish green. Green, that's a yellow, I'm just hiding. Is it more yellow or more green, Barbara?

Yellow, yellow, and Blanca looks more green. Let's just look at Blanca and show a picture of Blanca what he's supposed to look like. I was that was a guy's first street fighter to that picture. Basin you are doing on. No, but bring me bring me all like the bring me that pop figure and I'll show you the color. They say majority green because if you look at the edges, they're trying to do a thing with depth and shading where it's white on the spots that are closest to camera and then

it progressively gets more green and the other. Well, that's obviously a lot more green than that picture. Look at this. Well, that's like a Street Fighter 5. What? The ad holding up a pop figure, a blanca. And he's like the Hulk. Well, they did change the color. They made it more green over time. But he was always depicted like on the side of Hulk.

The Hulk doesn't have red hair. He's this color as well. But in the game, he's fucking yellow. That's green. Yellow color. That's yellow. He's yellow. Green. Look at this. That's green. That's green. He's yellow. Green. Look at this. That's green.

That's green because he's green. I can't remember what the camera is. Green was green too. Good lord, stop changing cameras on me. There you go. Can't ban anyone who says yellow. No, see, yellow is fuck. Thank you very much.

Fucking yellow. People are saying for years. And they used to like the two player variants. Where's yellow at the end? Yellow at the end there. That's orange. Can we agree that the middle one's blue? Yes. Yeah, the middle one is blue. One of the rights definitely orange. But also, if he's blue and blue are green.

So if you put a blue character next to him, it should draw out the blue in the green more. It doesn't. He's fucking. He's so man as far as you can onto his arm. The hair on his arm. And it will be nothing but green. Let's go. I'll be the blue. You did the blue one. That is green. That's green. That's green, baby.

Go closer. That's not green. And hands. Hands. And hands. That's orange. To the right. That's a tanish yellow.

It's a green. So somebody said the chat, I know it's supposed to be green, but it's yellow, and that's how I feel about it. Hey, that's green burns. That's, I used to think I was color blind in the 90s because people kept referring to this as a green character. Can you report that in a Photoshop and ask it, what the color is?

Yeah. And hands. And hands. There's definitely yellow in there, but the color that they're going for is to make it look greenish. No. Did I just make it? Just make going for is to make it look greenish. No. Did I just make it green? Just make it fucking green.

And they did. That's what they did over time and you're mad about that. So what color would you say this is? That's more of a greenish yellow. That I would describe as yellow green. The color we saw on street, I would just call fucking yellow. What color is this? Let's stop this.

What color is it? The two. Right. Okay. I was going to try to trick you in the same brown. It was the way, what color is it? The two. Right. Okay, I was gonna try a trick you to say brown. It was the white, it was the two, it was the white. Cool. Thanks for the explanation. Oh.

Okay, really, really, you're really rocking a tonight but I ain't thanks. This stuff will make you a sexual tyrannosaurus. I did read though that's like the pie chart of people's reactions when you tell them you're colorblind and it's like 1% of the people is, oh, that's interesting. 99 percent of the people is, what color is this? What color is this?

What does this look like? And I can imagine that'd be horrifying for someone who's colorblind. So do you suspect your colorblind? Is that why you can do a no-blank colorblind? I don't think I am. I don't think I see as many colors as other people. You could do one of those online tests. I've done those, like with the dots and the swells of number number and then you can look at the thing and say it determines like what type

of color blindness you have. I can always see the number. I can always see the number but it's like maybe it's just like I you know I hate to play the guy card but maybe it's because I'm a guy it's like when they say this color goes with that color I'm I don't what that means. Like I can say two colors you can be two colors that are the same I like those colors go together. You know, that's great. Trevor will often ask me, because he's actually color blind.

Yes. He's like, what is this color? And I have to explain the color. He's like, does that go with this then? And I'll be like, no, or yes, it's very cute. Like you hear the phrase clash, those colors clash. Yeah. And it's like, I don't know how colors can clash, but okay.

Is it like opposite colors on the color wheel? It's like colors that are close enough together that they don't go. Like if you wore red pants with that shirt, it would clash. Oh yeah. Stuff like that. But red is, that's a, what colors that shirt? That's an orange shirt. That's an orange shirt, but reds part of orange.

So why wouldn't red and orange go together? Because they're too close that there's, I don't know how fashionable. But you just know it. Yeah. But you just, that's the thing. It's's, I don't know how fashion works. But you just know it. But you just, if that's the thing, it's like I don't have that inherent, like those clash, you just know it when you see it, kind of a thing. Whatever that switches, I don't have that switch in my head.

You dressed pretty good though. I just wear the same thing every day. I actually posted a photo on her Instagram of her baby bump, like she's 38 weeks. And everyone's reaction, I'm so glad, like nobody did the whole like, look at the background thing, comment on the background,

which is what usually people do in every fucking photo. Oh yeah. It's like, if you got to scour your background to make sure. No one knows. It was wrong with the background. No, she didn't the closet. You can literally see I've got like two dozen.

That's exactly it. Of the same shirt. It's like nine though, nine black polos. Just all lined up. It looks like a cartoon character's closet. Uh oh. Peter H says, a cordon of color picker. Yeah, see there? Like dark yellow all of tone.

Bull. Dark yellow. All of tone, which is green. The hex is 947906. It's a dark yellow. I'm saying it's a greenish yellow or yellowish green. In the photo though, you get a good of people's interest. I'm tired of talking about photos.

The audio listeners are gonna be like, what the fuck is this podcast? We did the same thing when we saw the ninja video. We're like, is he in the driver's seat? Like the analyzing the background. What's going on there? They should just watch the video. Watch video.

This podcast video. Oh yeah, that's a good way to do it too. Yeah. Go watch the podcast video where you guys ask a bunch of questions of people. No, this one that you're currently doing. Well, where are you? I'm trying to fix this.

It's got a baby along the way here. I was getting back to the thing that he was talking to about the podcast thing. The podcast video out in SDCC. Did anybody else not notice the Blade Runner references that I was making? I did not. But he did what?

When we were like zooming in, I was doing like the blade, like, and hands. Yeah, and hands. That's CSI, dude. Everyone says that. That's notI, dude. Everyone says that. That's not Blade Runner. Is that also like a big blade runner reference? You don't say in hands.

No, he was like, you know, like for you to do the right, stop. Zoom in on that image. But you just kept saying in hands. He also said there's many ways to be a blade runner reference. It's okay. It's okay. They live in a apartment of blade 1449, right?

It's okay. You can tell it's a future because no one lives in hallways. But people do live in the hallways in that, right? That's the matrix, dude. Matrix everybody's living in the hallway for some reason. I thought I'd also blade run 249 when he's going to his door. That is true. Yeah.

Well, I think there's kind of hanging out. They're like camping out there. It's like the time you touched my head. That would be your nightmare. You're a part of my eyeball. Yeah. Like you're living and listening. You're like Gus, you living in a housing project

where you got to walk past like 50 people hanging out in the hallway, like 2049 that's where he lives. You would hate that, right? Yeah, people just milling about. Also, it's really fucked up though, because it's like two visions of the future, which is maybe it's because he's an android, I'm not ruining anything by saying this.

I'm very clear, they say it in like the first couple of minutes. Yeah, they do. Great movie, by the way, 249 was fucking amazing. It was like they hit the pause button and just like unpauseed it, what, 25 years later? Maybe longer? Was it 30? Yeah, I think maybe 30. Yeah, it was 30, like 85 to 2015osited, what, 25 years later? When they knew longer? Was it 30?

Yeah, I think maybe 30. Yeah, it was 30, like 85 to 2015. Yeah. Man, crazy. But he's in that hallway, but then he goes to the apartment. His apartment's really fucking nice. It's really nice. And it's like, I know it's enhanced a lot

by the technology he has in there, but it's like super clean and everything. It's also very small, right? It's also very small. It's also very small. Yeah. The whole, the whole, uh, his wife character or his domestic partner.

Joy. Character joy, is that her name? Joy. Yeah, that whole thing with hers, like, such a great, great part of that movie, man. Yeah. It's so fucking cool. I love futureology of any kind.

Like, I just get, like, so stuffed into that stuff. It's like, we should be living in the future now, but somehow we're not. Bullshit, dude. We got self-driving cars that are electric. Like, when I was in Japan, I was like, this place, this is the future now, but somehow we're not. Bullshit, dude. We've got self-driving cars that are electric. When I was in Japan, I was like, this place, this is the future. I think we have elements of like being in the future,

kind of like that, smartphones, electric cars, all that stuff. I talked to my computer, but I think it turned my lights on and off. That's the future. I guess when you picture the future, you think of everything else looking different. Maybe it's like, like Quitties talk about in 2049,

where it's like, you have two visions of the future in one. Horse, people are living in the hallway or hanging out there, but then the department is pristine and nice. So it's like, you got the bad and the good, and you're dealing with both sides. Like, shut that door. It's like tons of technology and holograms

and everything like that, but they just didn't do that in the hallway. You know, kind of like, because why would they? I feel like if people just completely adopted, like the future look, like there's too many remnants of, like this is supposed to be like a table that's looking rustic and stuff. So that kind of breaks the illusion of the future.

But if you just like purely embraced like a futuristic aesthetic, then it would look like everywhere would look like a few. If anyone is confused by why Blaine sounds like he's in a well, he's still wearing the dinosaur mask. He refused to take it away. He probably won't wear it for the next half hour. It smells terrible, Blaine.

This is not that bad and I feel like I'm a dinosaur. So that's kind of cool. Wasn't it backwards? This is what raised me about Jessica Negri's stuff is this is it right here. It's super in shape, good looking person and then this ridiculous mask on top of it. And it's just like, I don't know,

a lot of people think it's really funny. I genuinely find it off-putting. I really do. Oh, it's your worst of burden, Matt. The bird ones, they're just like, I'm not the bird think it's really funny. I genuinely find it off putting I really do Hello, she wears the burden of that bird once. There's just like I'm the bird you are. They're so off-fitting me. It was great. It's so nice. I'm gonna turn around and source flex. Oh What's that? That's that's our title. The worst part about the status of a mask is that Blaine is looking through the dinosaur's eyes There's two eye holes in the back of the mouth. It looks like a beetle juiced it

That's exactly what I was thinking when she does like the long face thing and she pokes her eyes and they come out of mouth I like wearing it now because it's like I have a red mohawk Oh, yeah See no one will be the wiser So I just don't know to go back to this Piece that was given to me. I don't think it's not trophy exactly like on the bird down or anything But she was telling me, she was telling me that the comb here at the top of the roosters head, it's not the actual comb from the roosters. She made a new one because she made it match exactly the logo to do. I was gonna say that comb looks very much like the logo. That's purple, right? Pretty fun, crazy, right? Yeah, stop it. Stop it. We're not talking colors anymore. We're done. I'm not colorblind.

I don't think I'm colorblind. I'm just not a color expert either. I'm not whole so that way with music, which has been very frustrating for me my entire life. Where did that camera angle come from? From the camera up there? Yeah, right here. The camera up above?

We can't see it because the lights are too bright. They're flying a drone in the studio. Oh, I just seen. Blay, why are you so excited? You don't know what a camera is? Blake, have you ever seen a camera? Where the rooster is? Look up. Look, look, look at the screen. Look at the monitor.

You're gonna break this thing. Oh my god. Blake, we got it. Blake, you're like Chris right now. Was it worth it? He was finding every direction, but the right one. I'm waiting for him to knock this thing off and break it. I thought you were gonna fall over just now. Because it's remarkably fragile at the same time. Let me read this thing. Factorio.

Runner of mine. If you don't read it, I'll talk about Factorio. This episode's receive podcast is also brought to you by Stamps.com. Back in the day, sending red versus blue DVDs through the mail was a big job. You've heard us talk about it before. One of the toughest parts of making and selling

Thanks stamps.com for sponsoring this episode of RESTYPART test. Factorial. So I decided to play Factorial this weekend or late last week just to like, I'll give it a try to see, you know. Actually, I have a problem.

We've been trying to find a game that we both want to play together. And I think we're going to play a game of life. Factorial. Have you give a baby? Yes. That's exactly what we're going to do. of life factorial. You have a baby. That's exactly what we're gonna do We're playing like raise the baby playing the sims Age of uh, have you seen this age of wonders that just came out you know the it's like a pseudo board game 4x game age of wonders the whole series they made anyway They've won us called age of wonders planet fall and I can't figure is it like based on another property,

because it kind of looks similar, or it's just a sci-fi version of Age of Wonders. Is it Age of Empires? We might play that. No, it's not related to Age of Empires. Age of Wonders been around for a while. We were played betrayal at House on the Hill. It's closer to civilization.

Sorry guys, that's me. Telemarketer, great. Somebody can see her that. Sorry, I gotta keep my phone on, I apologize. You're good. You're good, man. I got bam see her that? Sorry, I gotta keep my phone on. I thought you were good. Oh, good man. I got bamboozled. I was told we were talking about factorial.

So that's what I was worried about the most. I don't care about. By the way, I bought factorial and had never played it. I bought it back in 2016. Cause I think I saw not tweeting about it. And I was like, well, if not, I was just gonna tweet about it, then it's gotta be probably be a game that's, you know,

at least compelling and interesting, you know. So I installed it, but of course, like a lot of things on Steam never got around to playing it for some reason, like made time for it. So I went back and was like redoing my backlog or catching up on my backlog on Steam. I just played Subnautica. Did you play that? Was that like SteamPunk Summering game? It's a Summering game.

I wouldn't call it SteamPunk. I don't dig it. That aesthetic bothers me, man. It's creepy looking.. I wouldn't call it steampunk. I don't dig it that that aesthetic bothers me man. It's creepy looking steam Blank saying that we're wearing a dinosaur mask So wait me what's what about this? It's very futuristic to me doesn't seem like steam punk at all We might not be thinking of the same thing or the characters kind of like it's like a really stylized to look like like

1800s not a submarine. That's not subnaut different game. I was watching a fun house video where they're playing like some submarine game. And it looked like, uh, huh? No, but you got it. It is submarine games. You're close. It's like sub-nautica. I mean, yeah, what's it? Fuck. What do I camera always called? All right. It's really good that you're, uh, participating. But I played, have you played factorial?

Blank. No, man. I'm super behind on the game. It's the factorial is the number two, number two most highly rated game on steam. What's the let me think of this. What would be number one highest rating? It's rated number two with a 96.71% rating. Half of that night. No, what is it? Factore factorial has 96.71% rating on steam. And something else has higher. Something else. I have a dear friend.

I do. Would you like to make a guess? Anybody? How old is it? I'm not gonna say. I'm gonna guess a breath of the wild Oh steam sorry, I thought this was just games. Oh god. I got a pick between a Sequel or the original I might say it's one of the portal games. I'm gonna say one of the Tetris games are half like to skyrim Portal to oh 97.34 look at that In this podcast portal is number four Opinions on our industry. What is the abrating for Zelda breath of the wild?

This is just steam as I'll have in front of me. Yeah, but I mean like I Is there like a yeah? I guess I'm sure I'm sure on metacritic it's like let me know to be in the 90s at least I do something What's up? I'm sure I'm met a critic of like let me be in the 90s at least I do something. I'm probably 5% of the way through factorial based on just things that you unlock your Gress if you're lucky. I still don't know I'm gonna write it down because I want to play with again So it's like a resource game where it's like you're on a planet crash landed It's actually kind of similar to subnautica in terms of the narrative device that motivates the game

And you're just a dude in astronaut, but you have science on your side. So you like, oh, here's a little deposit of coal. Here's a little deposit of steel iron. Here's a little deposit of copper. And then here's stone. And then you just like mine it with your little pick, ding, ding, ding, ding, and then you mine enough of that stuff and you think, okay, well, here's what I'm going to do.

I'm going to use the steel that I mine with my pick. There you go. Right there. That's what it looks like. I'm going to build. I'm going to build a little machine that mine's in the bottom left there. I don't wanna see this.

I don't wanna get, I don't wanna look at this stuff because I'm gonna think I, I'm just gonna try to figure out how it works. It's so you build a little mining machine, the little mining machine, it spits out little nuggets of iron that it makes. So I gotta get that to somewhere else so you can make a little conveyor belt

that takes it to a furnace, and then there's a little robotic arm that you can get that takes stuff off the conveyor belt, puts it in a furnace, and then there's a little robotic arm that you can get that takes stuff off the compare about puts it in the furnace. That's a factory. Then once it's just like a factory. So it's like, you're automating everything. It's a game of automating every single thing you do.

The ultimate goal is you're stranded on this planet. If you research enough and get enough materials, you can build a spaceship to leave the planet. So it's like, you start with nothing, and it's like, okay, I need a research, I need to gather stuff, and then you eventually start building enough to where I can build a spaceship, and I can leave. So it looked like a start with nothing and it's like okay I need a research I need to gather stuff and then you eventually start building enough to I can build a spaceship and I can leave So it looked like a real-time strategy game. It looked like command and conquer it to me Yeah, there's almost no there is a threat in the game, but there's there really is how there is though

This is what happens is the more you pollute the more it angers them and the more frequently they'll start showing up Okay, you built like defenses. Yeah, gun turrets and walls and stuff like that too. Anytime you simply read alert, I would just build an entire perimeter of pillboxes around. Oh, pillboxes are the best. Yeah, and then like one dude would come and it'd just be like 18 pillboxes, just vaporizing this one guy.

Yep, now you would probably like this, also you'd probably like, they are billions. Have you played that yet? No, what is that? It's kind of like a real-time strategy game, but it's very rogue-like. I'm gonna upset Gus. We had a whole game time in the body where I called it

rogue-like and he got me to say, it's like a modern RTS, but you play, see how far you can get essentially. It's almost like survival RTS. And then it's not like mission-based, it's just like it's gonna randomly generate stuff for you or what? A little bit, it's like there's a regular event that happens, it's like a zombie-horde thing.

And this massive horde of zombies just comes through and the hoard gets bigger and bigger and bigger. I don't dig that, you know, like, Gears War hoard mode and then what was the Halo one? The one where it's like, it's was the, what was it? It's like, we put it, we came out of ODST. Flood?

Firefight, thank you, firefight. That's it, thank you. I feel like those had ins to them and sometimes you'd make it. And like when you did, you're like, oh yes, but like to have no end in sight, I don't, I lack motivation to improve. I played a traditional horror mode and the other day and I was like, yeah,

I don't gonna play this even more than two or three minutes. Right. It was a gears started I felt like. Yeah, I did. At least that was the first really popular one of it. And I was like, but we just played Portal 2 for game time. They had the ping system back in Portal 2. Like it was really prevalent.

What? I played Portal 2 before I played the first portal. Portal 2 is so good. But amazing. It's a great game, except it's a terrible game to watch somebody else play. Yeah. It's legitimately like you watch someone else play it and you want to tear your fucking eyes.

Yeah, because you're like, dude, that. Yeah. I think any puzzle game where you know the solution and watching someone else play it and you wanna tear your fucking eyes out. Yeah, cause you're like, dude, that, go over there. I think any puzzle game where you know the solution and watching someone else not be able to do the solution. Man, there's nothing worse also, like even just by yourself playing Portal 2, we like, this puzzle's impossible. Then you figure out like, oh, I'm really stupid.

I'm an idiot. But it's always like that, it's like, you just miss the thing and it's like, oh, like we were trying to do these portals to get this thing off, we realized we could just hand it across this barrier. You know what I mean? it's like, oh, like we were trying to do these portals to get this thing off. We realized we could just hand it across this barrier. You know what I mean? It's like the simple solution.

Sometimes you get so wrapped up in the mechanic. It's like, oh, we can just walk keeping it. It has been trying at times to do the RT Twitch stream, which we do every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Check it out, Twitch.tv, such or she. But. It's got porn on it. Something that I've noticed is like, I get go on streams and play a lot of horror games where one

person is controlling it. And a lot of those horror games are puzzle based. And so when you have like, you know, it's John and then me and usually like two or three other people all trying to do this thing. And I'm like, no, just if you just put that over there and just that'll open that and you could do that. And it's just trying to sit back and like kind of let the person who's playing it figure out Especially when you're not playing. It's like you can see so much more clearly Yeah, zero patients like Christina. There's a clip that's going around of me Dreaming at her to light a candle It was a weird playing this game

That basically one of the mechanisms is when you don't get access to light, you start to go insane. And then when you start to go insane, stuff happens and then the game's over and you got to restart in the last save point. And we were trying to get her to put a candle down on this table and light it so that we would have access to light. And our sanity was slowly going lower and lower and blame was just like like the candle Light it and I was there for that I had to come into the room to see that the hell was going on. Did you scare us? I did

Yeah, I kind of feel like that's a necessity you have to do that kind of stuff and once Visha circle comes out tomorrow Hmm, we can be streaming that Dude, I'm so excited. I'm so excited. And we have the stream going on this Friday, right? Vicious Summer. I think that's from 3 to 9. Yeah, it's a six hour live stream with a bunch of people are going to be there. Some people are flying in for it.

It's going to be like a mix between playing the game and some maybe fun, extra life type activities you might see. Very excited. I'm going to be on one of the teams. So I'm going to be bringing them way down. Can't wait. Such a fun game. Yeah.

I'm still so bad at it. I like Captain Boom. Captain Boom's fucking great. Yeah. I like Jess's character the most. I feel like lots of people play Blitz, yeah. I think it depends on what, and we'll probably have ongoing balancing.

I've always played Crash and Burn, which is Michael and Lindsey voice that character. I've heard Zella is like one of the best characters to play from a couple people here. That's your fucking socks. Barb voices Zella in that. I think when you're the chicken and Zella disappears, I think when you're Peggy Sue, I should say.

And then Zella disappears, you're like, yeah, she has that cloaking ability. Aw. Yeah, trailers coming out, if you're listening to this podcast live, comes out tomorrow, I think, the final trailer for it. And then if you're listening to, you can probably have already seen it. If you're listening to this podcast live comes out tomorrow, I think the final trailer for it. And then if you're listening to you can probably have already seen it. If you're listening to this later on some other thing,

congratulations time traveler. And hopefully, uh, while Mark doesn't declare a violent video game or remove it from what's up with that? Is that? Listen, I can't, I can't figure out anymore. I can't figure out what's real and what's not. I'm really at that point, dude. Like I read 1984 as a kid.

It seems so dumb. It seems dumb. Like they had the boxes and he's writing these things from the industry of whatever he works for. And it's like, no one's gonna believe this. It's double speak stuff. No one's gonna believe, you know, who would see through that in two seconds.

And it's like, I'm at a point now in my real life where I just like, I almost feel like I don't want to comment on anything because it's like, I'm at a point now in my real life where I just like, I almost feel like I don't want to comment on anything because it's like, it's only a matter of time before that's completely disproven. Like this thing you're saying about Walmart taking video games off the shelves, like IGN issued a huge retraction on that.

I don't know if that's true or not. The retraction was that, I believe, if I remember right, I'll look it up in a second, that corporate Walmart didn't pass down that rule that the local Walmart was doing that themselves. But there was a guy posted a photo on Twitter of literally the display case of video games at Walmart, which you've all seen a billion times, big glass case, and it's empty except for like a handful of games.

And they were apparently all the ones rated E. That's all they left in there was that which by the way Walmart was where the shooting was in El Paso about a week and a half ago. Funny that I can't remember the specific date when it happened. And Walmart also sells guns and ammunition. So they banned the sale of video games according to the story, but there's guns and ammunition ammunitions in the stores. Here's the update. So I gene, like you said, reported Wal-Mart's pulling violent video games from the shelves, but the retailer responded saying it is not directed stores to remove them or halt sales. Instead, the company is removing signage, advertisements, and demos for some video games featuring violence and firearms.

But all the guns that's being sold in stores are still. Yes. The quote is, we've taken this action out of respect for the incidents of the past week and it does not reflect a long-term change in our video game assortment. We're focused on assisting our associates and their families as well as supporting the community as we continue a thoughtful and thorough review of our policies. But why use video games? Why not movies too? Why is that one department? Why not like a John Wick poster where there's a million guns like the John Wick two. There's a three the John Wick three poster right? I don't know that's in storage yet, but yeah, I see a point though. It's like

why why just video games it does seem like a response specifically to you know rhetoric that video games cause violence which growing up violent movies and violent TV shows, I grew up watching fucking Friday the 13th. That was gruesome shit. Like it was teenagers getting like massacred, you know, and teenagers would watch this. My parents rented a copy of Predator on VHS

for my ninth birthday and it was the fucking best birthday ever. I bet, didn't. Yeah. Well, was after you saw that Turkey get killed in front of you? It was a rooster. Rooster, my bet. That was years ago. Oh, or fox.

I hate it. I hate to put stuff out there in the world that I feel like someone's going to spend a lot of time on. But I would love to see an image of the predator when he pops the mask off and it's your grandfather. What? What? He pulls it off.

Who would you like to do? I'm not your grandfather. It looks like. It's a darker skin version of me. People, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, people, Quality name the fourth like I literally said this this tradition has now changed fan We take it away from you and you can't do what you be upset with me go for it. You be upset. No, I'm not gonna our kid Can you can you get a new dog and name it because Travis roll before? Why not why not yet cuz that'll be a kid which Henry are we on? I stop tracking Henry's after the eight Henry the eight Yeah, oh anybody know like can I know my kid more Henry's can I name my kid Henry the ninth can I just do that?

You can do it every what who do you have a claim to the throne? Probably not I would say Who like what how do we know just name someone and they fucking jump into the royal family? But like the royals were like, they were getting defeated and they're all thrown out. And everything, I'm assuming the, I know shit about English royalty, but I'm assuming that's like different lineages and different families that were king. It's not one family this whole fucking time, is it? I don't know.

Who's Gavin, Gavin wouldn't know. He wouldn't know. I'm trying to look it up and I'm typing stuff in like, are we still numbering Henry's? I don't know how else to look up. So what is this? The fuckers that are in there now, can you overthrow them? And that's legit.

Like if you can overthrow them, can you then you come to overthrow them? Like storm the castle? Yeah, like going into the Black and Ham palace. I guess you'd have to steal the jewels. Is that what it is? What makes it so do the jewels make them? I don't know. I'm just thinking like a video game. I guess you'd have to steal the jewels. Is that what it makes so do the jewels make them?

I don't know. I'm just thinking like a video game like what's the goal? You get like I got the crown jewels like you take the crown off of the queen and you put it on your That's it. I think it has to be accepted by the people like it has to have the endorsement of the people if we're talking like Legitimately, but the British people don't Vote in the monarch here anything We it makes no sense. It makes no sense But the British people don't vote in the monarch here, anything. It makes no sense. It makes no sense. Because how does Brexit affect this?

Well, they just be, they go back to being more family of the island, but now it's not even gonna be that because I think Scotland's now gonna have another referendum to go independent. Speaking of Brexit, did you guys watch the Great Hack on Netflix? I don't haven't seen it. I have. Oh, yeah. What do you think? I make this caveat every time we talk about it, like in personal circles. And I haven't talked

about it. I don't think I'm the podcast yet. I'm going to prepare everybody. It's a very, very left-leaning documentary, which a lot of people will automatically tune out. And I get it. I get that. I leaned to the left. And so I don't mind that stuff as much, but I can definitely see how hard that leads left because it's based on the last election. It's a very important thing to watch. So I think to just see how people's personal data that's out there in a public space can be used against in ways that you wouldn't want. Absolutely. And even if you like the outcome of the election, just understand how the same thing could be done to make something that you really don't like.

It's more about personal data than anything. Just because you mentioned the election, that makes me think about something I saw in the local news last week. What do you see guys? The local election commissioner was on the news, I guess they were in the like Travis County is getting new voting systems. We're going to have new voting machines for November and they're talking about all the features of this voting machine and how much better it is

in the old one and the woman who's demoing it, that who is our electric commissioner here in Travis County says, you know, yeah, the machines run Windows 7, which is older, but since it's older, you know it's more secure. And I was like, that's not how that works. Sorry, I looked it up. And Microsoft is ending support for Windows 7 this January.

They don't update for security holes. Yes. As of January 2020, as of two months after they installed this new voting system, there will be no more security updates. Just that statement for someone who's in charge of that, just making that blank statement about digital security scares the shit. Right. It's like, well, these are the people that are making the decisions for securing our vote,

and it's just, it's inherently flawed from the beginning. Mm. Like, how do you, how do you fix that? Yeah, I just had an idea for a name for your son, Bernie. Don't forget. Call him Journey Burns, and he could be like a small adventurer who goes in, in travels the world.

Journey Burns. I actually love that. Journey's a great name. Spell like journey or just J in the front of my name. Just like journey like the fucking sick band. Or like taking a journey? Like an adventure. Okay.

Okay. What does it have to do with burns? Well, like it sounded, rhymes with your name. Well, like burning journey. Burning journey, this is my son's journey. Why don't you name him Kerni Burns and you can work on Fox all day have to do with burns. Well, like it sounded, rhymes with your name. Oh, like Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, damn, Bernie. Why don't you name him, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie,

Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie,

Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie,

Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie, I'm having a kid right now. We should know we should do. We should take like a bunch of surveys of like what? I think it's the fumes. His life is gonna be like at like 30. Like what? I can't even imagine what a job would be when he's like 25. I just don't know what jobs are gonna be. They'll be this, right?

Everyone is having a YouTube channel. Pewdiepie apologize, sir. That's gone. Bernie Burns, he can drive an ambulance. I'm not an apologizer. Know your son will be. No. It'll be like, look, it was a different time.

All right. Or if it works for a hospital, Gernie Burns. Gernie Burns? I have to name, I'm probably never even gonna say what his name is publicly, probably. Because I've learned, just don't talk to people.

If you're gonna have a kid, never just throw out the names you're considering because people have very strong opinions of names. I think you have a lot of great options from the last five minutes. Turni Burns, it'd be a big fan of Meg. Gustavo Rose, the role of the force. That's a quality name.

That's what I'm saying. Well, I would like to name him. It wasn't. It wasn't. It wasn't. It wouldn't do it too. It wasn't the original Gustavo, by the way, it was my other grandfather. Oh, you got to kill the bird. You killed the bird. The bird. Huh? Yeah. The third. He's a third. Derny Burns. Was there a boy Dern fan? Was there a point in time

you went by Raoul at all? No. I could see I could see you going by Raoul. I think I'm going to stop going by Gus. And you're going to go by Gustavo? I think so. Is there a motivation for that? Could I still call you Gus? Yeah, you can call me Gus. I mean, it's not a big deal, but I've always like tried to truncate it and lately I've been thinking about it and it's like, I don't know why I bother doing that. I've always thought you goose. I like my name. Because Goose is short for Gustavo. I like my name.

It's like why would I not use Gustavo? So I don't know. I'd like it. Would you say it twice in the podcast? So you're still going to go with that. Gustavo and Gustavo. Yeah, we'd introduce you some of the podcast. I'm going to see my credit and the closing credits on the podcast so you're still gonna go with that? Good stuff. And I'm gonna stop. Yeah, we'll introduce you some of the podcasts now. I would say my credit and the closing credits on the podcast.

To the staff. To the staff. I asked him a couple weeks ago. Yeah, we did. Change your name, it's a big deal. I'd change my name. I'd change my name itself. I would change my name in a heartbeat.

No, Bob is so classic and cool. Barbara, Dunkleman. There's so many people I've met. You can change your name by the way. Or I know. Okay. I know you can, but it's like at what point is it too late? I'm talking about it at 41, so. Yeah, but You can change your name, by the way. Or I know. Okay. I know you can, but it's like, at what point is it too late? I'm talking about it at 41, so.

Yeah, but you're still your name. Oh, I see what you're saying. It's like me going by Barb versus Barbara. You know, still my name. Could you change it to? I don't know. I don't know. Journey Burns?

Probably something a lot simpler. I never liked my full name. You should change it to Maryl, Salsado. Do you change to Muriel? Muriel. Muriel. There's a couple of people in this company that won't tell you how to pronounce their name.

Like you asked them specifically and they won't tell you. And Maryl was one of them for a long time. I'm like, Meg calls you Muriel. Muriel. Muriel or whatever the pronunciation that Meg uses for it. And I was like, but I've always said, Maryl, so should I say, Maryl or Muriel, she has whatever.

Yeah, please tell me. That's such a Maryl answer. Just tell me what you want. Tell me what you want your name said like. And she's like, nah, that's been Merl, like Merl Haggard. Merl. Merl? Merl.

You say Merl? Like Merl Haggard, it's like a joke, you know? I got you. And I think, I think it makes sense that because of Miriel's wedding. What? Is it Muriel's wedding. What? Is it Muriel? The old movie, right?

Elon. And you are at Yale. Someone said Elon Burns. It kind of liked that. Elon. Oh God, please. No. That guy's clearly a Bond villain.

Yeah, Barbara Collins sounds pretty good. Oh, there was a really funny thing. What was it? God damn it. I didn't save it. I thought that. There was a really funny thing. What was it? God damn it. I didn't save it. There was a really funny article where NASA issued a challenge to SpaceX. Did you see it?

Oh, yeah. Which they said, they NASA said to SpaceX, issuing a public challenge. I'm like, Hey, if you can land a spacecraft on the moon by this date, I think it was like something in 2021, it was really totally soon, then we'll do a series of missions with you going to Mars. And like the top comment I read on that was like, hey, I just want to issue a challenge to everybody else. If you buy a Lamborghini, I'll ride around in the Lamborghini.

It's like, what kind of that thing is like, I always say I can do that. I was like, NASA going, hey, can someone just build me this thing and then I'll go on it with you and I'll just go to the moon with you. Let's go do that. It's fun, right? Yeah, just funny challenge.

Some of the way it was worded in particular was like, especially like just like very privileged challenge that NASA was issuing. Yeah, well, I mean, that's their prerogative, right? They gotta find the private sector to do it because we're not gonna give them the money. Sad. Yeah, but then what is NASA bringing to the table?

They must be bringing funds for the mission. Yeah, government contracts to launch. What is SpaceX? That's what SpaceX makes all their money from, right? Sorry, Blaine, I never know when you're talking because I can't see you like it. We don't speak to you, Rhett. All of a sudden, it's here, a mumble coming out of that thing.

No te lies. Este verano viaja de puerta a puerta y sin complicaciones con Bláblacá. Siempre encontrarás una cercana, incluso a última hora. Gracias a tu próximo viaje. Bláblacá, bláblacá. I read a disturbing story earlier today. There was this guy in...

I think it was in California. He lived in a home. Who would have gotten a new car and wanted to get a vanity license plate. So he thought, what's like a weird vanity license plate I can get that'll like maybe fuck with the DMV a bit. So car. He got the license plate. No, N U L L. Shit. Yes. I can already see where this is going. No. So and he said there was no problem the first the first year. So he had the car, but then he got a parking ticket. I inspired meter or something. And then after he got that parking ticket,

the tickets just didn't stop coming. That it was, he got $12,000 of tickets mailed to him. It's because there was an outside vendor that was processing all of the tickets for whatever city he lived in. And when they didn't have a full life flight number, they assigned it to null, like a null value. Oh my God, so he got all of those tickets.

All of the unassigned tickets sent to him. He should know better. If he knows what null is, he was giving a presentation at DefCon. Oh, okay. When he did this, so yeah, he knew he that he was gonna maybe start something. I think you say like he crashed the system

for millions of users. So then the, the, he had to explain to the city like it wasn't me there's no way my next place just know so the city told him well he changed your license plate number and he said well no because I didn't do anything wrong. Yeah. So they said they took care of the death conversation. Yes. So he said they took care of the problem not to worry about it but he said all they did was he raised that $12,000 of fines. All the new tickets are still getting a sign name. So he said he still has raised that $12,000 of fines. All the new tickets are still getting a sign name. So he said he still has like another $6,000 that have shown up since then in tickets that

they say that he owes. But what's deaf con. It's not him. It's like a hacker conference. So, a hacker conference. Okay. And it always, it's always, it's always, it's always one that's always in Vegas. I think it's always in Vegas.

Yeah. And there's always events that it used to be in early January. And early January is like a big time for like a bunch of events taking place in Vegas at the same time. There was what is now the streaming awards. There was variations of the web awards that took place in early January. CES early January in Vegas, the avn porn awards also at the same time. And then Defcon as well. So I won't say what event I was there to attend. Wasn't the, it wasn't for work. But I was there and I remember I logged on to the public Wi-Fi in the casino

and I was with somebody to go, remember Defcon's going on right now is like, fuck, I mean I was just like, I'm sure I logged on to some node that somebody set up and I just like, I'm really transferred all my bank information. I was worried about that for a month. I was there with you.

You were there? If I recall, it wasn't us in Drew Curtis from far. It was. And we found out, and I remember I turned my phone off. I'm not turning it back on the whole time we're here. Thank you, Paul. Yeah, like they just set up stuff, like they'll set up like a version of like a small cell tower

or Wi-Fi hotspots. What, so they like actively try to hack people while this con is going on? Not only do they try to actively hack people, they have a wall where they post people's personal information to show people that they got. They released it. There was a presentation a few years ago

that was really disturbing. That was, I sent a pizza to your girlfriend. Oh god. Where it was like someone was like, I was able to, like he picked some person at random. It was like, I was able to find everybody of information about this random person. I found out where they live.

I found out where they're significant other lives, and so I sent a pizza to his girlfriend. Fuck. I mean, there's worse things that can happen to your girlfriend. It's fucking so. Yeah, it's like all kinds of really. That would make me so. It's like that.

It's easy. I went to the river this weekend, and I was, they had a rope swing, and I must have gone up that thing like 30 fucking times. I'm like really low in oxygen, by the way. I'm like, it's like, I got 10 minutes left. Yeah, I'm gonna fix this for you. No, you can fix this easily.

I'm committing. Anyways, I went to the bottom and I got water in my nose and then I immediately started working about this brain eating fucking amoebas. Oh yeah. And I don't know if that's like a myth or what? No, it's not a myth. They're real.

So like, what's that? Maybe that explains tonight. Huh? So the amoe's that? Maybe that explains tonight. Huh? So the amoeba that lives in warm waters, it goes in your nose. Okay. They're everywhere. Oh, this.

Yeah, but for some reason, just sometimes they get into someone's brain, they go to, I think, to the brain stem and then they just start eating and multiplying. And it's one of those things, kind of like rabies, when you start to exhibit symptoms, you're pretty much death-to-life. How long did it take effect?

I think it's just a few days. Yeah, when did you go? Ropes swinging? Yes, you did. Yeah, it's like two days. You would get water up their nose all the time. From what I understand, you wouldn't know it, Blaine. The rest of us would immediately see it

because the people go through immediate and very drastic changes in personality, like massive changes in personality. So I'm good. This guy, you need to be standing there. Yeah, I write. I can't identify the colored yellow anymore. It looks like green to them. Well, that's why for those nettie pots, they give you the solution to put in the water that does something to it, but basically because you're putting tap water into this thing. I think that you don't put tap water. Don't put tap water or like boil it or put the solution in that they give you for it. So boiling water up your nose.

Sorry. Sorry. Gotcha. Yeah. Interesting. Filtered or boiled water, not tap water. Definitely. It has something called not the wall of shame.

I called it the wall of sheep from wallofsheep.com. What is the wall of sheep? The wall of sheep is an interactive demonstration on what can happen when network users let their guard down. We passively observe the traffic on the network looking for evidence of users logging to email websites or other network services without the protection of encryption. It's a shame one of those VPN services is in our concert tonight. Then they post that up there.

So yeah, it's kind of like, it goes back to the great hack thing, but we were just talking about it's like, people so willingly put so much information out there that they just kind of trust it's okay, you know? Do you think that's because humans are like narcissistic at heart, where it's like, they want people to know about them and everything,

which is why when Facebook started, people were eager to like, oh yeah, I want to put my birthday and where I grew up and all these photos of me. Is it a narcissism thing? It's a service. And it's a service, it's a valuable service, but there's an old saying, which is, if you're not paying for the product, you are the product. And so what people don't realize is that they get all this stuff for free and really what they're doing is they're providing an exceptional amount

of personal data. But in the past, media companies, especially, paid hundreds of millions of dollars to try to figure out. Like they take a broadcast show, like ABC, they broadcast from their towers. They couldn't, after they broadcast it, they had no fucking clue who watched those things,

but they had to report to advertisers who was watching their program. So that's what the Nielsen ratings are. They're just surveys. They're like a selected group of families that keep a diary of everything they watch. Like a paper diary and then they process that and then they tell the advertisers,

which is a, I don't know how many billion dollars a year industry is advertising. And it was all based on that. It was all based on that. They have a watch box that you can, that was one of them. That's that top box. But it's a market sample of, it's a sampling of people.

Yeah, they really have no clear idea. Now it's way more sophisticated. The reason why I was saying, hey, why don't you go set your DVRs for a Shark Week immersion is those are things that count now. Because now they have more technology that's connected. A TV was not connected. It was a one-way transmission and it just received.

That's it. Didn't send out any information. So they had to go through all that stuff before. I remember in college, they sent out these surveys one time. Like what TV are you watching? If you do this survey, here's money. Like they actually sent you. They're like a $5 bill.

Yeah. And then like all the college kids at my co-op weren't realizing that they just thought it was junk mail. So like there was just a trash can filled with money. And I like sent out an email and was like, hey, you guys are throwing away cash. And like people were not in got it, but I might have gotten a couple bucks.

Nice. I always tear up junk mail before I throw it away. And it always makes me so aggravated with like, they put like a nickel or something in it. And it's like, I can't throw away a nickel. It's just like, I just can't bring myself to it. It's like, it's almost like I can't throw away batteries either. You know, I just can't make myself do that.

I find out that's a little scary, is when you get mail and there's like, oh, here's your proof for a loan. Here's a real check that you could deposit. What I found out is if you deposit that check, you're immediately owing this loan company. But anybody could deposit that check. It's true.

If someone came across that in your trash, they could deposit it. Well, this is very predatory. dude. You just reminded me of something I wanted to talk about. Can I talk about this? I don't know what you're going to say, but yeah, this is fucking crazy. So this is something that's come up on Venmo for me. And it's like this thing that's organically happened that is driving me a little fucking nuts. And that is probably about six months ago, maybe longer, we got in the conversation about Austin and sugar babies. Remember that? And Gavin said to me that I said,

what would you charge me my sugar baby? And he said, uh, $30,000 in a month. I was like, I could probably crowdfund that right now. And so as joke, I said, look, it's crowdfunding. We'll make Gavin my sugar baby. A couple of people found my Venmo and sent me like 10 cents towards the Gavin Sugar baby fund. One guy sent me three bucks and I sent it back to him. I said, no, that's funny, but please don't send me money. It's fine. He sent me three bucks for the Gavin Sugar baby fund.

Fast forward to whatever it is now, maybe six months to a year later, he writes me back and goes, well, it didn't work last time with only three bucks. So here's six bucks. He sent me six bucks. So then I thought, that's kind of funny. And I went to go back, sent him back his six bucks.

And I was like, you know what? I said, hey, you know what, to complete this game, here's 12 bucks. I sent 12 bucks. Oh, no. So then he sends me 24 bucks. No. So that was like, all right, I'm kind of curious.

I sent him 48 bucks. So now he's sending me $96 of the event bow. So now we're in this like chicken match. This is like, this is like, I just put the moment I stop, I'm gonna, I'm gonna either gonna take money from him. No, just stop at zero. Don't give him any more, zero it out. But I just send him what he sent me.

Right. And that's it. I guess that could be the way out. You gave me the way out. But you had to, you needed help to figure this out. There is, I'm in a panic about this because that one like, I'm kind of curious how far this will go.

And Chad's got the worst advice ever. He goes, you should really show him up because just send him a thousand dollars. I go, my God. That's terrible advice. That's me losing a thousand dollars. I hope it doesn't get anywhere near that amount. I've got to, if next time he sends me money back, I got to send him $192 to keep this like one upmanship going.

Don't just send him. Just send him back to 96. Yeah. Right. And then we're all even see even I get out of this. That's your going. Don't just send him back to mountain, that's it. Just send him back to 96. Yeah, that's it. Right, and then we're all even see even like get out of this, right? Don't encourage it. But aren't you kind of curious how far it can go? No.

Yeah, how far it goes to fucking prison. Why? I don't know. I just don't trust it. Well, yeah. I'm worried about going to prison for Venmo. I saw some other DEF CON presentation. They're right, this is what this reminded me of.

This is Kevin by the way. Kevin and I mug a bison on you. I saw this other DEF CON presentation. This is what this reminded me of. It's Kevin by the way, Kevin and I mug a prize or on you. I saw this other DEF CON presentation where someone was talking about this scam that's going on right now on eBay. The person giving the presentation said that they wanted to buy some Nespresso pods.

So they went on eBay and they looked and they saw this really good deal where they could get like 200 espresso pods, but it was like half price. Nice. So like, oh, okay, you know, I'll buy that. Just must say, espresso might be the single most overrated product. Yeah, I agree. In the world. In the world. This story is going to get a little complicated. I'll tell them to use names here. Okay. Let's say it was Blaine. Blaine goes on eBay and buys some espresso pods that are half price. He wins the auction. When Blaine gets his Nespresso pods Besides just the Nespresso pods. There's also an espresso machine in there And but that's not what you bought

So you you bought it from Barbara. Let's say So you email Barbara and you say hey um, I just wanted to these Nespresso pods, but you sent me a machine as well And Barbara said I just wanted you to be a happy customer So I sent you an espresso machine on top of the espresso pause that you bought. When in reality, what happened was Barbara Stolt Bernie's personal information opened up a new credit card in your name without you knowing it. Sold espresso pods bought an espresso machine and sent it here. It didn't cost her anything, but she gets the money from blame. So she's taking a credit card, making fake transactions, stealing money from you and getting

a hard cash and return from it from this side. So she's just stealing from me to sell other people's stuff. Right. But why do you see get a free Nespresso machine in that? Just so they leave a positive feedback so that they can keep doing this, selling other things to other people. So they're like spending 200 bucks on my account just to get more feedback on their $30 and espresso scam.

Right, because it doesn't matter to them, because it doesn't cost them anything. Oh my God. That speaks to me on such a level of like, I can't tell you the number of things in my life these days that feel like someone going, we'll just do like five more times the thing that you should normally do,

because you'll get a little bit more of an effect. It's like, I'm not doing that. I'm not like, I don't want to constantly just keep like nose to the grind so I'm like, let's be more effective in the things that we do. All the fucking time I had this fucking conversation. But the people who, the people that are working the angle, it's like, it doesn't affect them in any way.

Why the fuck would they care? Why would they care? It sounds ridiculous, but it's no more work for them. It is. No more money out of the, out of the, it's a self-minus press machine. And she's stealing more money from me. It's exactly the same. It's not a race.

One way or another. I want this press. I actually, actually, but this Venmo thing with doubling down with Kevin, Kevin, I'm watching you. Fuck off. Don't you don't send me, don't send me 96 dollars. Take the 40 walk. This is like what's the thing?

Don't send me the 96 dollars. Take it. Take your money. Walk away up. Don't send us money. Don't, don't, please do not. Please do not, I'll just shut that off. There was literally this was fun to me though. This was the only thing I ever thought about making public.

But I do wonder how come Venmo hasn't given rise to those age old scams of like, like me and this guy, Kevin, we're in this like two person fonty scheme, essentially is one of this, but why have it like, we see no rise of those like, chain letter things of like, hey, I got a list and you send the person at the top of the list and then know them like a dollar or whatever.

And it's always the person that like made it in such a way that they make five times five times five, you know, and it, but it seems like, oh, if this keeps going, well, my money, if you ever see anything like that online, don't fall for it. Don't fall for it. Don't fall for it. Don't fall for it. If anybody ever sends you double the amount of money

you sent them, do not respond. That's even if it's funny. That is, now I'm trapped. But that's also, my life is falling apart. That's also the most common scam you see, like people talk about on Reddit, where it's like, I bought something online, or someone bought something for me online and they sent me more money than I expected.

And they told me just to cash the check and to send them the balance back. It's always a fake check. It's always a fake check. Always fake check. You send them the money, the check bounces, and you're out all of it. I did that.

Don't let anyone send you more, don't let anyone send you more money than they should. Yeah, no, it's true. I'm actually kind of losing money to transaction fees with this joke, but it was funny. It hasn't gotten completely out of hand yet, but it's about to be. I'm about to lose 24 bucks.

If he keeps my 48 and walks away, then I'm fucked, what am I gonna do? But I had that recently, I did something out of spite where there's a little gym near my house. It's very little, it's gym? Yeah, no, like a guy named Jim. Yeah, I'm gonna work on Jim. Like a work on Jim.

Yeah, it's a little gym near my house. It's actually part of like a bigger complex where they do lessons for gymnastics and other stuff for kids and tennis and swimming and stuff like that. And the gym is such a small part of it. It's really, Blaine, you would love it. The gym looks like it's out of the 1950s. It's got the, you expect to see it dude

with the Unitarred with one strap with the big kettlebell lifting and the like the pyramid weights. Eugene Sandow. Yeah. Yeah. And it's, but I just had the membership because it was almost nothing and it was nearby. It was closer than my other jamming. It was like my other jam was like closer to the office. So I had this like convenience one, but it was like dirt cheap.

But because it was like dirt cheap, I also wasn't paying attention to it. I get like behind by a couple of months and then I pay it and they got sick of that, I guess, for me like not paying my bills. So they said, they said, hey, we've canceled your membership because you're supposed to pay monthly and you're not paying monthly, you're paying like once every two months.

And I was like, I was like, all right, that's fine. I'm sorry. And they go, you know, this passed you amount of like $97 for three months or something. That's what's, that's even too much. It would have been like $30 for three months because it was like $ I'm gonna go this past you amount of like $97 for three months or something. That's even too much. It would have been like $30 for three months because it was like $10 a month. So I was just like, all right, my fault, I'm bad.

But I felt terrible about it because it's like, I pay all my bills, but I know because they're not some big company that's gonna report me. I was like, kind of let that one slide because it's cheap. I feel terrible about that. So I'm just saying this to swage my own guilt,

but I was like, I feel like pay up front. I was like a year but I did do that. That was another one of my solutions. I literally pay for the whole year, but then I had the membership for a while. And I was going in like once a month, like once every maybe like 40 days. It was like, it was like,

it was when I wanted to go on like a Sunday. That's why, because my gym is not open on Saturday or Sunday, the one that I normally go to. And that's why I had it in case I ever wanted to go and I figured it was like 10 bucks a month it's worth it. But then it was like I fell behind but then I got kind of mad because I was like, guys, I'm like, I'm like your dream client. Right.

I'm like, I'm like, you show up once a week and you don't pay. It's great. I pay, I pay, I just pay late, but it's like, if they get to get the money eventually, anyway, I'm not going to the fucking gym. Just, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, you're not a dream, don't say you're a dream client, then. You're not paying your bill.

I'm close to a dream. I'm incurring your dream adjacent. I'm dreaming adjacent. I'm nearby. If they can just get me to pay like, I pay most of the time on time. It's just occasionally, I tell about. They probably want that to be all the time.

Also, by the way, every other service in the world I should it's my responsibility and I take full responsibility for my responsibility However, it is like the only thing that I would get a bill in the mail and had to write a check for so what I started doing It was automating and just sending them a payment then I ran to a problem where I got too far ahead at one point on them And they were like, please stop, you know, you're getting too far ahead and it's like these payments stop the payments And then I stopped the payments, and then I got far behind, it was only there like two years ahead,

all these fucking problems with them. So, it sounds like you're both a better off. Sounds like it was a toxic relationship, you're doing better on your own. All right, let's wrap this up. I'm not in any better shape than I was. Do you wanna? Yeah, so this is gonna be my last podcast for a while.

As you guys know, Ashley is now the 38 weeks pregnant. The phone could ring at any point in time and I can be off to the races with new kiddos. So I think there's probably a good chance that that's going to happen by next week. So this is going to be my last podcast for the foreseeable future. I don't know when I'll be back.
