Hello everyone welcome to the RST podcast. I'm Gus.

I'm Gus and we're back
Wow, I think I broke mine. That's cool. We can see all the way up
They literally just discovered that these are
They literally just discovered that these are You're right before we went to business on that one.
You want to hang in brain up in there.
Oh baby, ooh I just sat in gum.
Oh stop it, it's just penis.
I kicked my thing, you've got, we've got recliners.
We're back baby.
It's been 30 seconds and we've got
590.
We were counting before, no, we have 590.
We were counting before we went live
We did 54 in a row at home. Yeah, five 89 right? Yeah, our last one in studio was five 89 and this is six 44
I said we just call this one at five night
Never happened. Yeah forget what other shite. Yeah, yeah skip those five 90, cheers back to back to you. Cheers. Is this what we're cheers ing or do we
cheers what's on the table, friends?
Gus.
You, you, huh?
So we've argued recently about where
there are frozen coaks with the same as Coke Slurpee.
So to settle this argument, you
went and bought melted versions of both of them.
No, no, no.
And you brought them here.
When I brought them here, they were good to go.
When did they get here?
Like two hours ago?
They got here.
Look at this.
Five minutes before. Five, five five minutes. Look for five.
Simple minutes before a coke Slurpy or just a coke melt to coke. Do they become coke? I know you have to taste. They become flat coke.
It looked like a science experiment. I did in high school where I took water, oil, and one other liquid that I'm forgetting right now.
So you could see like the density and how they separate. That's what that looks like. That's exactly what that looks like.
Yeah.
Here's the thing.
Guess what, and stop talking about it.
Listen, I'm going to talk to you guys
saying frozen coke, frozen coke.
Because I'm going to get to enjoy a delicious frozen coke
with my friends.
Uh-huh.
You know what I'm realizing right now that I'm very hyper aware of?
What was that?
The audience at home, they're seeing our legs
for the first time in a really long time.
Look at my legs.
We've got legs still.
No. I got a stick and poke tattoo of a little piece of slime. Why is it shiny? first time in early long time. Look at my legs! We've got legs still. No!
I got a stick and poke tattoo of a little piece of slime.
Why is it shiny?
You always never regret that.
I have a, I have a like, aquafore on it.
There we go.
I got pizza vacation tattoo.
So is that, which one's the good one?
Is that any of them good?
I don't like coach.
This garbage, this garbage.
The McDonald's one's good.
The other one's good. This is garbage.
7-11 you ought to be ashamed yourself. Oh shit.
Well, that is disgusting. I told you. That one's good. That's delicious right there.
This is gonna be just bad. Oh, that's on my knee now.
So why did we get both of them? You just wanted to know if they were the same thing.
I wanted to, yeah, because I think they're the same. Can I get some whiskey for this? Is that a drink?
All right. Is whiskey a drink? Is whiskey in Coke a drink?
Yes.
Yeah, but whiskey and frozen Coke.
What's that called?
Do we have that?
It's called whiskey and frozen Coke.
Can we get you all that if we do that?
What, y'all that for whiskey?
Yeah.
It just tastes like flat Coke.
Yeah, this is a terrible experiment.
7-11.
Why?
Because they're all melted.
Oh, OK, well, let's go to 7-11 and get them new.
What do you want to do? Yeah, the McDonald's was new. You brought them over, and they were all melted. Well, okay, well, let's go to 7-11 and get them new. What do you want to do?
Yeah, the McDonald's was new.
You brought them over and they were melty.
I put them in there and they were perfect.
I like that.
So we can argue in real life.
There's no delay.
Yeah.
I could see someone's face as I'm yelling at them.
Everything I could ever want.
I wore pants specifically for the podcast today.
Normally, I don't, because like you said,
we haven't shown our legs in a year. Normally, I've just hanging brain in my dump there. What if we're for the podcast today. Normally I don't, because like you said, we haven't shown our legs in a year.
Normally I've just hanging brain in my dumpster.
We're doing the podcast.
Just throwing dogs staring at you going like,
oh, there it is, huh?
Brown stain, brown stain, round down the middle of the chair.
Do you actually do the podcast without any of that?
Yeah, we're short.
I read it.
So I'm gonna write some fanfig right after this.
There was a thread on Reddit, maybe a year or two ago,
where someone wrote like a hotel workers of Reddit.
What are the things that people should look out for
that common travelers don't think about?
And one person wrote, I work at a hotel.
One thing people never think about is, we can wash sheets,
but we don't wash pillows.
So the pillowcase may get washed but the pillow itself is probably filthy.
No. Which is something I never thought about.
Yeah, I just think about how much I drool when I sleep.
That's exactly what I thought about. So you're sleeping on.
Oh, you drool. I thought you meant like I like I goo.
Oh, no, no, like mouth drool. Yeah mouth drool yeah yeah I drew when you sleep
Not even in home and your equipment self-again. I'm not like a bad drool
Uh-huh, but if I fall asleep someone that's not a bed
I think I do drool like a plane
Yeah, we're like on a couch if you're taking it out. Yeah, like on a couch. Yeah, I feel like I've drilled a couch before the
worst is I sleep with that CPAP on that like mask. Oh, yeah
So I'll draw and it'll collect in the mask
I'm about roll over in my sleep and then like all that cold drool just like get on my face and I'm like
over in my sleep and then like all that cold through all just like get on my face and I'm like well I have to wake up
and like take the mask off and dry it out dry my face up.
Do you ever sleep on the one side and then you roll over
and then like you drink it and then you're like you just
wash it over.
Yeah.
I think it's because you have very big cheeks.
Yeah.
I feel like the corners of my mouth don't seal properly.
It's like there's a leak there.
What the way hang on.
What? It's not watertight. The
corners of my mouth. So that's why the drool. Wait, so go like this. Yeah, but now spray water
out the side of it. If you blow, if you blow, will air come out? Yeah. No, really?
It comes out of both sides. This is nuts. I'm not even pulling that heel.
Mine's a pretty good seal too.
Although I have, I have an issue with things not feeling when I sleep, but that's my eyes.
My eyes stay half open when I sleep.
What?
Yeah, like I sleep like this.
What the fuck?
Like a cat?
Like you could still see whites in my eyes.
Your eyes super dry when you wake up?
They are super dry.
I never thought about that how my eyes are open and they dry. But how do you They are super dry. I've never thought about that,
how my eyes are open and they're dry.
But how do you fix that?
What do I do?
Can I put capes?
Have you ever had a cold eye?
I can't say I have.
Like maybe I think eyes maybe don't have temperature on them
as a feature because I've never had a cold eye
or a cool Eric.
As a feature.
I said that that feature when we were born.
You can put them in your cold mailbox and chill them out.
It's a great idea.
The other thing, so I said about that thread of hotel workers
that one thing they said was the dirty pillows.
The other thing that they said was,
if you look at, you know, lots of hotels
have like that little desk with the telephone
and like the chair, if you look at a lot of those chairs, there have like that little desk with the telephone and like the chair.
If you look at a lot of those chairs, there's a brown streak right down the middle of
them.
No.
What do you mean?
Like the, like the concierge or something?
No, no, like in your room, that little desk.
Oh, oh, be, oh, because, yeah.
You look like have a chair in your hotel room.
You're probably never paid attention to it, but if you look at the seat lots of times,
there's just like a brown street down the line. I'm like not naked
around my house in a hotel room. Like, I'm just like, I'm in at least some clothes. Yeah.
Yeah, you're naked when you're in the shower. Yeah, that's about it. And then, and then when I get
out of the shower, I see myself in the mirror and I go, no, and then I have to go close really fast.
I feel like I don't want my skin to touch other people's
shit yeah like if I'm in a hotel using the stuff gotta have coverage yeah like
I won't even use a bath that's gross at a hotel yeah or just in general just
a hotel I just take because I'm gonna lie down where people stand is grim who
takes a bath at a hotel some people do they run that bath some people
Definitely take bath at hotels especially
Probably I think yeah, I say to a hotel I think in Sydney
Australia one time that had like one of those big jacuzzi tubs and I was like fuck yeah
I'm gonna myself. Yeah, some rooms have like the big
But that's not that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about going to a regular hotel and taking a bath in the regular ass bathtub. Yeah, if it's just like a
Well, it's usually that like shower bath combo guys. You're out of touch. Most people don't stay at a Sydney hotel with a jacuzzi bathtub
I'm talking about a Hilton
That's $89 a night in Sedona, Arizona. You're just like I guess I'll take a bath here
Like these Australian bossy because yeah in Sedona, Arizona. You're just like, I guess I'll take a bath here. Please Australian bath, super girl.
Yeah, that was a cool.
It was when we were at RTX Sydney.
I didn't.
Or it might have been, it might have been no,
it might have been supernova.
This was another connection with you.
I've stated some shitty Australian ribs.
Tell you that.
Yeah.
I hope.
Yeah, so bad.
Yeah.
There was, there was, was it the last year we went, you weren't there. I don't know why I looked at you Eric.
Lancer. I don't know if you were at that one either Gavin, but there was an RTX Sydney
We went to where the hotel we were staying at was like I felt like we were in a sex dungeon hotel
What?
Like all the hands in place. Do you remember all the rooms had mannequin hands on them?
It was the one with a cafe on the first floor
and you had to take the elevator through.
And it was really dark?
Yeah, yeah.
And the rooms were black.
That sounds hot.
I kept finding dead cockroaches in my room.
Oh my god.
And I've only found three.
And I never saw a live one.
That's more than one.
But I would go into the front desk.
I remember I was like, there's, I mean, it's not a big deal,
but can you, I don't know, like, can you spray or something?
I keep, I feel like I keep finding these roaches.
I've never had this problem before.
I like the one would have been fine,
but you mentally keep encounter this point.
Yeah.
You see four.
It's like, well, four is clearly too bad.
That is a problem.
And they were super apologetic about it.
They were like, should I give you a new room?
I think they were sold out.
They didn't have an oven.
They were moved to.
And they were like, you know, we'll, you know,
and we were at pay for it because it was part of the event.
I'm sure, I was here staying in the road.
True.
You were the extra for that.
Yeah.
And then they were like, the next time you come down,
you know, well, you can stay for free.
You know, it's, you know, we're so sorry about it.
I was like, it's my, I haven't been back.
It was like, they're not,
do you think there's someone to let you stay for free?
I doubt they remember.
It's like, the manager told me face to face.
It's like, he didn't give me a coupon or anything.
One free stay.
Too many roaches, one free stay.
They have like the little reason underneath
that I could write it in.
Too much roaches.
More than two roaches.
Honestly, more than one, I think is what does it. But like, if you find one it in too much roaches. More than two roaches.
Honestly, more than one, I think is what does it? But like, if you find one, it's a fluke.
They're a bug got in.
But what you're mad about it, or it was like, I think for every star that the hotel
is more, what should be one less roach?
Until you're at five stars and there should be no roaches.
And there should be zero roaches.
Have you ever found dead bugs in your room?
Or you find like a lot of dead bugs in your room?
Like, you know what I tell us?
I mean, it on what you are.
I feel like.
Not once.
I can't think of.
Not once.
I can't think of finding a bunch of dead bugs
in any hotel.
I've seen a bunch of hotels.
Bad hotels.
I haven't even remember if I've seen a bug.
Unless it's like an ant or like a fly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Right?
Like, there's no, but I once stated a hotel in Anaheim
that made one of us pay cash because someone else wanted
to use a credit card because it was that kind of hotel,
but there was nowhere else to stay and it was very late
at night.
There were no bugs.
So you're staying in a weird spot, no bugs.
Six dungeon hotel, does that feel called it?
Yeah, it was, I mean, it was a fine place to stay.
It was just like, they were trying something.
And I don't know if it necessarily is something
that they should have tried.
What's it turned to lights off?
It was great.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Very dark.
But then until they skitter across your face.
They had like a sliding wall that opened up from where
the bathtub was to the bedroom.
So you could like open the wall to the bathroom.
So you're like have the big, weird open space between the two.
And I'm like, what scenario?
Other than some weird kinky sex going on here.
That is for.
That is a trend in hotels that I've noticed.
There is a weird open floor plan thing with rooms
where they go, the bathroom can be easily seen
from everywhere and you go, why? So you could take a shower and
then talk to your friends as they are also in your room. But, they don't have a door at
all. Yeah. Like, bathrooms that don't have doors and like couple stays here or like
you, while you stay here with a friend, they don't want to see or hear you shit.
I stayed at a hotel once in LA that I sat down on the toilet and right in front of me was
a mirror from the floor,
like all the way to the ceiling, it was a narrow mirror.
So I was like, when you sit down on the toilet,
you can watch yourself shit.
Like if you look straight it and it wasn't far,
it was like from my knees to the table,
like two or three feet in front of you.
You surely couldn't see the shit going in.
Well no, I mean, I give you like,
and the little bit of like the bread you're like,
the middle of that,
I'm vision like between the seats.
So you can just see it.
Do some of this.
I mean, shocking to me that you did not try. I'm not Jeff, I'm God. It's been a year, I'm sorry.
You got to see your shit face.
I gotta see my shit face, the red-up clothes.
It's good.
You make a contact with yourself while it came out.
No, I couldn't, like, I was so embarrassed about watching myself shit.
I couldn't look at the mirror.
Like, I could have thought, I think I'd make the most,
I'd try and wink at myself as I pinched one off.
I was like, look at you. I'm so happy. I'm so embarrassed about watching myself shit. I couldn't look at the mirror. Like I was like, I think I'd make the most,
I'd try and wink at myself as I pinched right off of it.
I was like, look at me!
Oh man.
I still, every time I talk of, or people talk about shitting,
I always think of Zach Anor and how I talked about it.
I was ball sack touches the water when he takes the shit.
Because it's really low bulls.
Because yeah, they're very droopy.
And I can never get that image out of my mind.
Oh no.
I remember staying at a hotel with Megast 64,
one year for some convention.
It might have been RTX, I don't remember.
But it was one of those open floor plans where it was like,
here's two beds, here's half a wall, here's the shower.
So you can watch your friend shower.
If you want to, the toilet was in its own little door.
And we just called it shit closet.
Yeah.
Because it was just like, you stay here and you shit.
And then when you're done, you get out of the shit closet.
You cannot stay.
I still remember my first time meeting you guys.
Well, the first time we actually hung out,
I think you were there for that, where I came up like,
a bunch of people were hanging out in a hotel room.
This was like back in the day, where that's what people did at cons.
They just like had a big party in people's rooms.
When we were in our 20s, yeah.
Yeah, and I came in there bringing alcohol,
including a alcoholic whipped cream that I had received as-
That was you?
Yeah.
HONDA!
It was a chocolate whipped cream.
And I was like, hey guys, anybody want to try this?
I start shaking it, but I'm pressing the button at the same time and I'm shaking it.
So I just sprayed chocolate cream all over the white bed sheets.
I was there. That was Boston.
Was it?
Yeah.
It was a lot to say to say to say that it was a mess.
To say that it was a mess was an understatement.
To say that it looked like actual shit is like on the fucking money.
It looked like somebody stood up and squatted over it and just went,
here we go.
That's fucking tore.
Someone's already in the shit closet.
Brian trapped in the shit closet. Brian trapped in the shit closet. Oh, god, about that.
What's going to be back? What year was that? That was like, oh, I think the first ever
PAXY. So I want to say, oh, no, maybe the second, it was like the 2010 or 2011. I think it
was the second. I wasn't at the first one because it was at a different convention center
and then they moved it. This is a weird thing to say maybe twenty two. It was the same years the earthquake in Japan
I think I think that was like I think the Japanese earthquake happened like a day after that
I follow your time is like Japanese natural disaster
No, I think it was like I think it happened like that day. Yeah, like that same day that where you did that
It takes it's usually what like March ish
same day that where you did that. It takes it's usually what like March ish Axis. So while you were spraying what cream will ever
bed. 2011. That was enough. Well, it's a butter.
It was something exact. That was 2011. And I had to be right.
It had to be before that. Uh, uh, I think it's 2011.
Because that was what? No, it had no, no, no, no, 2012. You're right.
Because I, sorry, I get my years mixed up. I got hired at the end of 2011.
Oh, so I was trying to think like the first packs I did
as a Ruchite employee was 2012.
But, but 2011 would have been the year
that you weren't working for us and you went down there.
You were still there.
That's true.
I did volunteer at your booth for the first two years.
And that's when we had to old.
I did that with May 64 for a while.
Yeah.
That's when we had to.
You were done there.
The old podcast set.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And when I had to set that up below, this episode of the received podcast is brought to you for once. That's what we have. That's what we have. That's what we have.

Oh my God, remember conventions Jesus Christ.
I've been thinking about those a lot.
She was rough.
Like when and how do those come back?
Oh, they're coming back and it'll be 1000 people in one normal.
I drove by every single normal.
Uh, every, every, nothing will change.
I drove by a billboard the other day.
Uh, that said, like it was an advertisement for the Renaissance fair that
happens out like East of town.
Yeah.
And I was like, oh, I guess they're having that.
And I was like, is that good?
I guess people are getting vaccinated.
And it's outdoors, but it still seems soon for something
like that.
Yeah.
I know, if you're watching the video version of this,
you've seen the lower third that we all got tested.
And everyone that has a negative test,
we even have a COVID compliance officer,
you can't see who's just off-sharing right over here.
He'll wait for us right now, there you go.
I'm making sure that people are keeping distance
and that everything is safe.
In fact, when we came here for the photo shoot
a few weeks ago, we were all sitting down, eating lunch,
and he came over, he's like,
there's too many people sitting at this table.
Like, but you know, keeping us safe. I was like, okay, I'll get up, I'll move away. We were all sitting down eating lunch and he came over like too many people sitting at this table like like like
Like keep but you know keeping us safe like I'm like, okay
Like I'll get up. I'll move away like you know like we take it seriously like people who are our keeping distance and trying to keep things
Safe even though everyone's tested negative who's here. I'll know we are the same distance apart as if we would just say on the couch
I know we could have got the big couch probably and then have you guys just that right which is adjustments little by little
I think it's they be have physical space although the couch doesn't recline so the big couch probably and have you guys just. That's the big couch, right? Which is adjustments, little by little.
I think it's just that.
They beast.
That physical space.
Although the couch doesn't recline.
So it's that.
That's true.
I'm all about these chairs.
These are.
I think we should replace.
These are fucking awesome.
I say that now that I'm in this chair now.
You fool.
You try to get me a switch.
I'll never switch.
Also, I tweeted about this.
So I'll say it publicly too, but I'm comfortable saying
that I've been vaccinated, fully vaccinated.
So that's another factor that's made me feel a lot safer
to do and stuff like this.
Oh yeah, absolutely.
And I encourage anybody watching if they have access
to the vaccine, that they should get it.
It's safe, it's effective.
It's something that's going to help us get back
to that normalcy that we all want.
Oh, I got a hair cut.
You got a haircut, yeah.
It was cool.
I walked in, and the guy I usually see was just like
whoa I was like
You gave me this haircut at the end of 2019. He was like
Same again. I was like, yeah
Again, and I just saw the entirety of 2020 in my hair on the floor like the entire year cuff. I was like yeah
Did you Make a little doll out of it now you have a doll out of your hair? On the floor like you keep it up. I was like yeah, I shouldn't have asked you keep
Well, you know, it's you make a little doll out of it. No, you have a doll out of your hair
No, it was on the floor. It was like sweat. It was nasty. I'm gonna pick up
Yeah, I know I didn't know if they did the thing where they like made a ponytail and cut the ponytail off and then you could donate it
You're corking hair
No, no, it probably wasn't long enough. I think you need 12 inches of hair. What's it give away?
To donate. Yeah. Give it strikes me like a four.
Fortress is fine. Generous.
I also got my I'm fully vaccinated as well. I feel like a you know I think
it's been scarce for so long. People are like, like maybe trepiditious about talking about it.
I know I was for a while as well.
I didn't post anything about it on social media
when I got it or anything.
But I guess becoming super available now, at least here.
Like I got today alone, I've received multiple texts
from like different doctors and different places.
Like, hey, we've got vaccines right now.
Come on down and get them if you need a reply to this text.
Right now, you can come and get one.
I know. I wish I could like retweet all these things,
but I wouldn't want to like clog my timeline up
with just retweeting like vaccine availability,
but there's like places in LA and all these places
all over the country where they're like,
we have all these vaccines available.
We just need people to show up.
Like here's the way we know it.
We're not going to be changing any minds though.
I mean, the people getting them are going to get them.
Yeah, it's not like, but I mean it couldn't hurt to
say like I felt comfortable getting it and I'm fine. What is that Bill Gates? Yes, I
will. If there's anyone watching this and they're going, did Eric get vaccinated, that's
really gonna affect the way that I feel about my vaccination. Please get off the internet.
Just stop. You got to be very online.
And you need to get less online.
Eric, what should people, if they want your opinion,
and you can actually provide a good opinion,
what subjects do you think your opinion is valid for?
I would say, yeah, early 2000s to mid,
probably 2010s, professional wrestling,
I would say like what really,
what happened with New Japan pro wrestling
and what led to them being where they're at now,
all elite wrestling and how they got here.
The importance, the importance of Southern California
professional wrestling through the early 2000s,
not just through pro wrestling gorilla,
but with things like XPW.
Check it out, dark side of the ring, premiering May 4th.
Anything outside of that realm?
No, I probably-
Maybe Padre's baseball?
Probably don't listen.
Yeah, yeah.
Unless, if your question is about Padre's baseball
or professional wrestling, that's it.
But if you're like, did he get vaccinated?
Please shut up.
Please leave me alone for both of our sakes.
I realized that I follow a lot of people
from San Diego on Twitter.
Yeah. The Padre had a no hitter the other day.
Man, my timeline is just full with Eric and Brian and Sean.
We're going to fucking crazy.
I'll talking about the fucking no hitter.
It happened and we facetimeed each other like right when it happened and we were just
fucking losing our minds.
It was so cool.
I was so excited.
What happened?
So the Padres, San Diego Padres have been a major league baseball team for over 50 years.
For over 50 years, Gavin, that's half a century.
What did you ask?
You never found a nice hitter.
I know hitter.
Every time they've had a baseball game, at least one other person on the team has gotten
a hit.
Every single time, except when Joe Musgrove made his illustrious start. Ah, nine a week ago. And he went and he threw nine amazing innings of baseball
where the other team did not get a single hit.
Eric.
Yeah.
Why no San Diego Madras?
They did that.
Did you know that?
They changed their name to the at San Diego Madras
on Twitter for Mother's Day.
But then because they did that, they lost the handle and a guy jumped on it.
Oh my God.
And then the guy went, I'll just give it back to you,
just give me some tickets and they give you tickets.
Oh my God.
They didn't think to maybe immediately set up that account.
Listen, we're a pretty easy-going city
saying you're gonna California.
Tell me what, this will be funny.
Oh, bro, we blew it.
It's pretty much that.
I like how his bargaining chip was just tickets.
Like instead of like full season.
No, no, it was probably just like,
I don't know, you give me my girl some tickets.
I'll get like a burrito and be good to go.
That's pretty much the $5 voucher.
I'm into it.
In chat, C Reed says, no hitters in baseball
is just one team playing catch.
Yeah, and we played catch so well on Friday.
It was great.
It was beautiful.
It was beautiful.
Joe Musgrove, San Diego and East County San Diego native
where I grew up.
Incredible.
He went to a rival high school.
Incredible.
Eric, I'm not here to engage in this.
I don't know how to.
We're happy to drive all the way here to engage in.
We're happy for you.
We just don't care. I don't know what else to. We're having a drive all the way here to engage with you. We're happy for you. We just don't care.
I don't know what else to do other than go nice.
All right.
Good job.
You can't all tab away from him.
Is that more?
I'm like, here, if this was a help podcast,
that's what I'd be doing.
Is that?
I'm going to wind a ride over his face.
I also have to commute.
I forget how to do facial reactions.
What does that hang on?
What you want recording your face every week? No, but I mean like I'm used to if I'm talking having the camera beyond me when we do these like remote podcasts
And so if someone else is talking I'm not on camera. I don't have to care about what my face is doing
Finish your sentence then you like yeah, and then we went to
Till the camera's back on so what happens when you talk to Trevor you just go like
swag you go yeah so what do you want for dinner? He could save me what he's talking to me.
I don't know it's hard to explain. I'm just like very aware of my face and what it's doing right now.
It's a good face you have a nice face. Yeah you doing great. Just do what you've always done. Mm-hmm. Oh, don't do that.
That's wrong.
I made a joke to Jordan, who's our GM, about how we're going to do the podcast in person
on Monday, but we're only going to be staring into our cameras while we do it.
And how it's just going to be like, we're doing it at home.
Oh, that would be so weird.
I missed my bleep button.
Yeah, I got the wrong call.
Oh, yeah.
Where's my soundboard, man?
Yeah, where's your boot?
Shh. Yeah, I got, oh, oh, I'm curious. It's my Eric's sound Yeah, where's your booch? Yeah, I got all of my greasets my Eric
soundboard. I'm right here. Oh, my God. I got it. No,
if someone else to do it for you. He was faster than I. Yeah.
Michael, what you need is the drum. What do you call the rim shot?
The rim shot for Gus. Anytime he makes a joke. Every time we've
got to run it into the ground. We uh I
In a roundabout way the other day, I got a free pair of glasses
Like when a fight like what I was gonna say that he'd like buy drugs like
I got a conscious after run of two guys, yoy. I sure got vaccinated.
Like one of the first things I did was get an eye exam
because I'm a big nerd and I needed new glasses.
So I got an eye exam and I had a pair of sunglasses
that I keep in my car.
And like I've had those sunglasses for so long that the
like the coating on them was like falling off.
No, because it gets so hot here in the summer. And so I was like, I
had only had those lenses in there for like two or three years. So I got new
prescription. I took them down to the glasses place and I, you know, I give them
the frames. I was like, I want to get some new lenses in here. Here's my prescription.
And they're like, okay, well, you know, these are old frames that you didn't buy
from us. So we should just sign this waiver that if they break, it's no fault of
ours. I was like, yeah, that's fine. Kind of is though.
Yeah, no kidding.
It really is.
Who else's fault would it be?
Well, then the guy who has been filling out the forums,
like, how old are these glasses?
Like, you know, two years ago.
Oh, no, these frames are like, I paused the time.
They're like 11 years old.
What the fuck?
Are you serious?
What?
So they only stay in my car.
So they get super hot.
I've been through several lenses in them,
but the frames themselves are like 11 years old.
And sure enough, a week later, they call me,
it's like, yeah, your glasses broke.
What do you want to do?
I was like, I'll come down there.
So I went to the glasses store and they're like, yeah,
they showed me, they broke, right?
And this part of the glass, this part of the frame broke.
They're like, you can go pick out another set of frames.
So I went and I found the exact same Ray bands.
I was like, the exact same glass is like here.
Just put the lenses in these.
Like, all right.
And I was like, so then I left.
And they called me earlier today.
And I went and picked them up right before I came here.
I went and they're like, you guys are ready.
They handed me, I was like, great, I tried them on.
I was like, what are I, oh you, they're like,
don't worry about it.
Whoa.
Oh, I mean, I think that's what they should have done.
Yeah, but it's awesome.
The glasses are also, like I told them,
they're 11 years old.
I'm living here, sure.
So it's, I understand that.
On the verge, yeah.
It's old, it breaks.
Like they didn't need to do that.
They're about sure they make all their money on the lenses.
That's nice.
If they broke there, I bet it was your acid sweat that we can back up.
I agree, I'm with Gavin.
I think they're in my car, I can get them.
What?
I'm just here, acid sweat glasses.
So do you think that the guy was sentimental about the 11 years and he was like, we should
give him these for free?
Like if you said, these are new frames, he would have been like, this dumb shit.
Why do you buy these, this idiot?
Like, we were gonna make a pay again, moron, but 11 years, he's like, wow, I have like a dog that's 11 years old.
Oh, it's way out.
Oh, well, yeah, so, uh, forgive us.
Wow.
Awesome.
Are those are the ones you're wearing right now?
No, no, they're my sunglasses.
Oh, yeah, so they're, you won't notice because they're exactly the same as the old ones
from here.
In 2032, we should see a new replacement for those probably I'm looking forward to that
Yeah, I also don't know if I've seen you wearing sunglasses this last year because I've only really interacted with you
Yeah, you haven't because I only ever wear them driving. Yeah, what time have you ever tell you they got stolen once
Like back
I bought those Ray Banzel's prescription sunglasses and like a week or two after I bought them
I
Like I said I only wear them when I drive so I keep them in the center console of my car a week or two after I got them I
had
Gone to a restaurant in downtown Austin and it was the kind of place where you can't park like they have to valet your car
So I gave my car to the valet went in eight and
By the time I came out from the restaurant it was not the sunset. So I gave my car to the valet, went in eight, and by the time I came out from the restaurant,
it was not the sunset. So I went home. The next morning I get in my car to drive somewhere,
reach for my sunglasses, and they're not in the center console. And I'm like,
the car ate them. What the fuck? So I go back to the restaurant.
They only explained mystery, so I go back to the rest and I'm kind of pissed.
I'm like, you know, I got these brand new sunglasses and they're gone.
And of course they're like, well, did you miss play some?
I'm like, no, like this is, this is where they live.
They're only there.
And so I went back and forth and I was like, your valley took them.
That's, that's it, right?
I think either the valley took them or they left my car in locked and someone opened it
up and went through my car and only took
My
For Christmas, it's not like you brought them into the rest of it, right?
Because yeah, you never do that. I wouldn't do that. Someone back before the eventually like they cut me a check
I still had the receipt like I said I had just bought them. I still have the receipt for the glasses
So they cut me a check and I bought a replacement pair
So I had this pair of sunglasses for 11 years, but the one before was only like a week
glasses for 11 years, but the one before was only like a week. So, it's a real balance.
This is your third pair of rags.

It's he oh it's directed by the guy who did John Wick
Hardcore Henry
Like the Russian guy. Yeah, yeah, nice shallor that guy so I love that guy
I want to see this movie just because it's Bob Oddenkirk doing John Wick shit and that sounds tight as hell.
Also, this looks like a good dad movie.
Like John Wick is like a good dad movie.
Like a movie that your dad would be,
like you would be over at his house.
Look, Moneyball.
Yeah, that's a great, I'm on the money with that one.
Your dad would be scrolling,
like just kind of like watching TV
and just kind of like going through channels
and then like Conair would be on.
And he would stop and be like, all right, Conair.
But it's already like 25 minutes into it.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter how many times you sit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
That this nobody movie looks like a great in like nine months TNT is going to have this
movie and it's going to be a dad movie.
I can feel it.
That guy makes really great action.
He's done some sick Bob Odenkirk.
Yeah. Yeah. I can feel it that guy makes really great action. He's done some sick
Yeah, the tail of every I can fall in the cups on the back That's so crazy awesome the best I did a crazy thing recently
It was a was yesterday a day before 9 point some friends had a album screening to Batman
They rid the Tim Burton Batman.
Oh! So we were like, yeah, we're going on. But I'd just seen it. I watched it like a month ago,
because I got on like 4k blu-ray. And I got in there and I was like 20 minutes in. I was like,
I don't want to watch this again. It's not a fun one to watch twice in the same month. So I was
just like kind of bored. I was like, yeah, I remember this part.
And then I was like, I'm gonna drift this will work.
I pulled out my phone.
I loaded up Plex, because I have a Plex several
where I do like rip movies to work and watch him anywhere.
And I was like, let me see if I can stream Batman to here.
And I was like, oh, it's working.
And I lined it up to where it was in the movie.
I switched to the audio commentary,
and I put my app on it.
And I just went to Timber and talked about how he made Batman.
That was so smart.
And I turned on the noise canceling.
So it kind of muted all the sounds.
It was amazing because I could feel all the sound, but I couldn't hear it.
So I'm watching the Batmobile come through like everything's exploding.
And I'm just feeling like, for the explosions.
And Timber and it's like, yeah, we shot this in England.
We did six day weeks
Really odd experience
The idea while I was sat there
Me too. Yeah, I really want to do I want to wear headphones go to a big movie theater and watch Godzilla vs. Kong with whoever directed that movie. It was the most epic or the most commentary ever.
Yeah.
Direct that movie.
I saw a movie this past weekend that might be the worst movie I've ever seen.
Which makes me so sad because I was actually thinking it might be fun to watch.
Okay.
I had a Wiengarde directed a Godzilla vs. Kong.
And I hate to bet talk a movie like that.
Cause I know, I know nobody.
Do you want to have them guess what it is?
Oh, sure.
I'm trying.
But I know nobody wants to make like a bad movie.
It's a game movie.
Yeah.
And I'm sure there are people who would enjoy it.
I'm curious.
And that's the less movie.
No, no, no.
I don't even know if you guys would have seen,
like I haven't seen many advertisements for it.
Yeah.
You know, recently, It's a comedy.
It's a live-action movie.
Two women are the most.
Oh, is this that Netflix movie?
No.
Oh, is this a Barb star, whatever?
Oh, did you see that?
Yes.
What is it?
Barb and star goat to Vista Delmar.
I've never heard of that.
Rocco from May 64 has had a real bone to pick with that movie
since he saw the trailer for it. like over a year ago during the Super Bowl
Where they don't show any faces and he's just like what the fuck is the point of it?
Yeah, I saw the trailer. I've seen the trailers are like what the real faces in the trailer
They don't know they just show like the hair and like hands. They just had cast it. Yeah, no, no
It's them. Oh, it's like an intentional choice. Don't know why it's super. Yeah, all the trailers are really weird The trailers don't even tell you really what the movie's about because it makes no sense
Yeah, from what I've seen is just like a five-second clip from the movie is like the trailer
Yes, where it's like out of context random scene and then like cuts to
It's got winter soldier in it. Yeah, but it's strange. It's a strange way Christian. Yeah, so it was like, she's great. And it was really shit.
Yeah, man.
I mean, I'm sorry to say, but man, I was wrong with it.
Like, it's not funny.
If I'd gone, I don't know if I've ever left a movie yet.
Like, I don't know if I've ever gone to a movie at the theater
and left to ask for my money back.
I feel like if I'd gone to the theater and seen this,
I would have asked for my money back.
Wow.
I mean, I've left movies.
I've never asked for my money, but I feel like that's my strength. I think they my I think they normally give you Brian guard told us they normally give you a pastor on the movie
It was just
Movie fishy not over it was very I mean
Yeah, it's just like it was in the book. Yeah
Individual jokes. I don't use the word jokes loosely. Individual jokes. That were strong
together in with like an overall plot that doesn't make any sense. It was like they had
these ideas for these characters and then they went to go improv a movie and then that's
what I paid to watch.
Oh, is it like dialogue that does seem like it wasn't written and people are just kind of like
rambling on on? Sometimes yes. That was the such a pain for an editor to edit movies where the
the director was like just ad lib a bunch is like right but I have to make this make sense.
And like I read the trivia for the movie on IMDB and like there's one scene early in the movie
where they lose their jobs, the two make characters lose their jobs and the trivia for the movie on IMDB and there's one scene early in the movie where they lose their jobs
The two make characters lose their jobs and the triv it's like they there were six different versions of this scene where they lost
Their jobs for different reasons it's like why why why not just write a good one
To movie and then gone need to go to IMDB and check out the trivia for this thing
I hated it got to see what the trivia is
check out the trivia for this thing. I hated it.
Gotta see what the trivia is all about.
You never looked at it again.
You bet, go!
Here's the thing.
Teach me about this thing.
It was rated, it was rated 79% in Rotten Tomato.
So I was like, I seen the trailer.
I was like, it doesn't look like it's gonna be that good.
I saw the Rotten Tomato score.
I was like, 39% pretty good.
Maybe like, I don't want, what's that?
Is it an audience score or a critic score?
Critic score.
So I was like, what's audience score?
61% I think. Ooh. So I was like, how was audience score? 61% I think.
Ooh.
So it's like maybe I didn't want to not feel the movie
because I was prejudiced against it
because I didn't like the trailer.
Sure.
Uh, and so I gave it a shot and man,
I did not like that.
I quite frequently look at trivia
because that's some gems in the Eric.
I don't know if you've,
this is my favorite piece of trivia, all right?
Okay.
It's for the sound of music.
I'm not sure if you've ever seen that.
I read this one, Christopher Plumber died,
because he died like,
he kept on watching.
Yes.
And he played Captain Von Trapp.
This is a piece of trivia for the movie.
Yes.
Very little background information on the real Captain Von Trapp
was known or available to Christopher Plumber.
So he took to the Salzburg mountains with an interpreter.
There, they met with Jorg's nephew
and asked him what the real man was like.
The nephew told them he was the most boring man
he'd ever met.
Wow.
So what a waste like this.
He's a tricky guy.
Here's the thing.
Okay, I have a real problem.
I got a real problem with method acting.
I have a problem with this. This is the thing. I got a real problem with method acting. I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting.
I have a real problem with method acting. I have a real problem with method acting. I have a real problem with method acting. I have a real problem with method acting. I have a real problem with method acting. You don't have to be in character. Who was, who was this man? Who was this man?
Well, you see, he was the most boring man
whoever lived.
I'll take that in and I'll bring it
to this Oscar worthy performance.
Just that!
I hate it, I hate it.
There's love there.
What nowadays would be like a four second phone call
or what he about?
He had to go all that way the guy was like
Cheers I think that's great. He just he got everything he deserved there
Yeah, I'm gonna fly all the way
Yeah, so you don't like it when I just do research for their role. No, no, no
You can do research you can do research that is above and beyond and is not going to affect your before
No one is going to go
I know that guy and that's exactly how he was this bullshit. That's like was that the big short
Fucking who was the Batman Christopher?
Yeah, Christian bail
Fucking learn to how to play drums for that movie because the guy he was playing played drums. I don't know him
I don't give a shit.
Just act.
Yeah, but he was probably thinkin'
I guess a free-truck bless about this.
That's not it.
It's about the shit.
What did he do?
Okay, did he also like, uh, ton of boosts?
Yeah, I guess he made a lot of boosts.
Literally the only reason I want to be cast
in a Marvel movie is so I get free training.
Oh, that's it.
Is this, I want a personal trainer?
Is this what I want to do?
I want to have to think about it.
I'm about to get, They could fight if they want.
Man, I don't get the people like really fetishized like they're like, oh I'm like a method actor.
Yeah, to me that's, I mean I don't know anything about any of that but it's like it's annoying when you hear about people who refuse to get out of character.
And their characters are complete busted and that's the boss that's a little crew even like in their canteen.
It's like maybe just like just switch it off
Why you eat while I was eating next to you?
Yeah, that's the only time someone's a method actor is when they're going to be an asshole, right?
Yeah, they're never like the good method
Yeah, like you went around giving everyone money on saying the method acts Mr. Roger. I do understand wanting to understand about like little nuances that people had if they're like
Playing an actual real human being, I understand that.
But staying in character and being a method actor
and all that stuff, I never understood that.
I just like, do you ever hear the stories about
Jim Carey playing Andy Kaufman in that movie?
He didn't get it.
It was Jim Carey acting like Andy Kaufman
wasn't doing a fucking character all the time.
And he saw like Jerry the King Lawler on set because they had like a wrestling match or whatever.
And Jerry Lawler would always tell these stories about like, yeah, Andy Kaufman was like the nicest guy,
and he understood wrestling, and it was all a bit like we were just doing like a big production.
But Jim Carrey would like, sneer at me and be like mad, he's like, I'm gonna get you Jerry Lawler,
and he was never nice, and he was never fun to be around
and it was miserable to shoot.
And it's like, Jim Carrey doesn't fucking get.
He doesn't understand, he's method acting
and he doesn't give a fucking story.
He's method acting as the character, not as any Kaufman.
It's all, God, that's exhausting.
That sucks.
What have been the worst Jim Carrey role
if he went method on it? Like mosque the green the Grinch the great
The green
Where's man, I don't know like he hasn't played a lot of like
Terrible terrible people. Why he was kind of a shit person liar liar. He's mature in the second movie is a complete

All right, sorry. I was a bit of a dick there blah blah. Yeah you can see his motor, he's broke. The second one.
He's just full lost.

Our eyes are just not meant to look at screens as much as we do.
The blue light came in with our internal balance affecting our sleep, causing stress, headaches,
blurry vision, eye fatigue, trust me, I say to my computer all day, then miss out on my
phone, watch TV, play video games at night, and I'm exposed to a ton of blue light, and I know tons of people who tell me they get headaches
and constant tired eyes until they start wearing their Felix Gray glasses.
Thankfully Felix Gray's glasses filter 15 times more than average blue light lenses.
Super cool to not have tea guys, especially, you know, I know some of us who are making content
all day spend tons of time in front of a screen. I know plenty of people here who use them.
I mean, finally, a pair of glasses designed for the 21st century.
Felix Gray glasses filter 15 times more blue light
from screens and other clear blue light lenses out there.

some animated superhero show. Is anybody, are you watching that? I read the comic.
I read the comic, so I just haven't, I haven't watched the show. It's really good
I heard I heard it like holds pretty firm with it. So it's like I'm excited. There's five episodes out so far. I've seen the first four
It's really good. It's like
Like a teenage kid in high school basically like his dad is Superman. Yeah, it comes from another planet
He can fly super strong and everything and it it's like, he's gonna develop powers.
And then like in the first episode, like,
oh, my power is just starting to come in, you know?
So his dad's like teaching him how to be a superhero.
That's cool.
Yeah.
It goes a lot further.
Does it get dark?
Yeah.
Apps so kind of like,
Is that why you still telling us?
Yeah, so I was like, I tried,
so there's the end of episode one
My under spoiler for the first episode. Mm-hmm
There's a bunch of superheroes in the world and there's like an Avengers team to call them a Guardians of the Globe
Mm-hmm at the end of the first episode the kids dad goes and kills all of them. Yeah, and
And like is trying to cover it up and it's like the whole time you're like
It's like watching Superman like purpose put purpose. Yes. It's like watching Superman show up to the Justice League and kill them all.
That would have been a better movie. Yeah, I mean, that gives me major the boys vibes,
which you guys have all seen. So it came out around the same time when
Invincible was coming out, the boys was coming out, the comic, and it was like,
they were very much kind of like, we'll take the story and then flip it upside down.
And they both didn't really kind of like different ways, but in very like, both man, both like
the first probably like 15 issues of both of those comics are so like so good.
If you like the boys, I really recommend it.
I really like the boys.
Yeah, I think you would eat like for an animated piece.
I think it's really, I think you're really going to like it. Yeah. think it's really I think you're really gonna like it. Yeah, man
What a grisly fucking calm. Yeah, and it gets like the curse and it gets really graphic
Like some of the fight and they deal with that a lot like
Like trying to make if super here is we're real like it's not all
Like I see in the movie like it's gory, you know sometimes like it's like like invincible
Like the kid invincible like he's trying to save some old woman and like, she gets really hurt and like, her legs broke
and if she's all bloody, like, has to take her to the hospital and he's like, you know,
is she gonna live?
Like, we don't know, you know, like that kind of stuff, like, and he tells his father, like,
he never told me how dirty it is, like, being a superhero.
He's a way to put it.
Dirty is like, really, what these comics look like.
It was kind of like that time where walking dead was still,
like the comics were so really going and everything
and invincible was a really big thing
and the boys and they were all very like,
man, just really gritty, dirty ugly kind of comics
and man, they're really good.
I still remember when we were watching the boys
for the first time, because I knew it was like
a little more of a graphic show,
but it's essentially that same premise of if superheroes Superheroes actually lived in the real world,
like how it would it be.
But there was one scene where like,
I think someone's skull got just like crushed.
And I remember thinking like, this is,
oh no, no, it was like the first episode,
it's gonna be a spoiler,
but the show's been out for a while,
where someone's,
soon enough again,
standing on the street
and then someone was super speed, comes by
and she explodes, essentially.
Oh, that's like Clipter.
Yeah, but her like fucking, her guts spew everywhere.
She is eviscerated immediately.
And I was just very taken aback thinking,
oh, so that's what they meant by gory.
Like actual work.
Like in all the Superman movies,
where like someone's fallen out of a building,
he comes flying in and grabs him. It's like would it fly into a billion pieces if they would be dust
Superman in a
Some of the X-Men movies like with Quicksilver has to say people like he's always like after hold your head
It's always like there's a bullet moving at this speed and then he just moves someone it's like that brain hit the inside of their skull
Like you can't do that.
You can't move anyone.
Maybe move the bullet instead.
It feels like there's a real kind of kick-tour.
And I hope the rubber band is kind of bouncing back.
There's a real kick-tour like this has to be visceral and like real.
And this is what it would be like in the real world.
And I'll give credit to the Godzilla versus Kong movie
where it was like the death count is way high,
but you never see it and it is a big cartoon.
People die like that and buildings are getting knocked over.
It's fucking, it's just Godzilla goes fuck this bridge.
That's how it is.
I'm fucking just crazy.
And cars are just falling.
That's how I know I'm now too old for those movies.
Because the whole time I was watching, I was going,
oh my god, think of all the people in that apartment building because y'all's over like people just enjoying their Saturday night
And oh my god, I was thinking he's the exact same thing. I was on the exact same page. Yeah, I saw someone who's gonna clean this up
Someone on social media wrote something like
Millie Bobby bronze character in that movie is an anti-vaccine QAnon believer. Oh, why are we all okay with this dude?
That was Zoe Zoe works in like
Yeah, and it was she does no dumb answers, but she should check out yeah check out no dumb answers with Mark and Brad great show
That tweet is so good and that's exactly what that character was and I couldn't figure out why I hated her the whole time
Every single character in that movie besides Godzilla and Kong are useless
whole time. Every single character in that movie,
besides Godzilla and Kong, are useless.
Yeah, they don't, they don't need to have humans in that movie.
Was it a Paris, who we've done some stuff with, Paris Lilly?
Oh yeah, yeah.
So for me, I think he wrote that,
he made a tweet that he watched,
he did a rewatch of the movie and just fast-forwarded
off all the human parts.
Yeah, like, just monsters.
Just wanna see action.
But oh, it must be better, it must be better movie.
The thing that I heard about this movie is,
well, there are a lot of fights.
Like, there are a bunch of fights.
I watched that movie.
There are a good amount of fights.
They're not in the fights in that movie.
Every time no one is fighting, you just go,
they could be fighting.
But what if the monkey fought the lizard?
And one of the fights isn't even that good.
When they're on the boats.
I agree.
I thought they're like one or two parts on that
where you're like, whoa, this is tight.
And then the rest of it's like, get out of the water.
Right, it's like, go to the land.
Yeah, let's fight.
So fun.
I'm also always so confused when there's a part
in the movie plot where there's an adult who's working
with kids.
And I'm thinking, is no one going to be like,
maybe don't hang out with that strange man?
Like, that's not a weird thing and that he's totally cool hang out with a bunch of like young kids.
Yeah, they travel like around the world in that movie very fast. Yeah.
We were watching that movie and you know at the very end that Millie Bobby Browns in Hong Kong.
We were watching that movie that's where he's like, oh he's gonna be like that simsence episode.
We're bar to career. I say, I'll give that credit,
I'll give that movie all the credit in the world
for taking out the most boring part of movies where they go.
You have to turn off all the power
and then somebody goes, what do you mean?
They go, if you turn off all the power,
then this, this, and this will happen.
We can't do that.
We have to stay, we have to keep all the power on
and the argument there. This movie happens where the boat gets flipped upside down and then flip the backside up and they just go turn off the power and the guy goes
Turn off all power and it's over and you're like great. We took off all the men. They did that and I will say what I was watching
I was like in my mind I was like how long would it take to shut down a battleship like that like if you were on like a
War vessel like a battleship in the ocean Like if you were on like a war vessel,
like a battleship in the ocean,
and like the captain comes on the radio
and is like, turn off the boat,
like, is that like an hour?
Like how long does it take to shut down a boat?
Yeah, surely, I said,
how many people, how many different floors?
Like, where are all the buttons?
Yeah.
Yeah.
How long have you-
How long have you-
Yeah.
I bet like, on a cruise ship,
that would be the most extreme.
Like how do you turn off an entire?
Oh, that would be I don't think it probably could be done and it could even be done by one person
I know for well
I'm sure it could be done if it needed to but like yeah cruise ships are fucking huge
Yeah, well, we were talking about it
I think we talked about after a podcast ended one week
But apparently during COVID the ones that they couldn't use it's so much effort to turn off a cruise ship and turn it back on
They just leave them on just now I think we did
I want to see yeah Jeff had to turn off a cruise ship and turn it back on. They just leave them on. Just now. I think we did talk about it.
Yeah, that's crazy.
Because it's like the rad zones, like on its own grid.
And like you can just kiss boys there.
It's fucking nuts.
Come back.
Red zone.
My first tip was at the front of the boat.
Not in the red zone.
OK.
Why did they bring those ships to Texas
and hook them up to the grid?
That's the thing.
You were going to pick up us with a power.
Dude. Yeah, we got no power. This is a shit lit of empty cruise.
We're still having a problem. This bar sign doesn't even turn on anymore.
What the?
We got to update the update graphic.
Yep.
Dude, I just turned off.
I looked at the picture we tweeted from the Rysha Teeth account. I don't know if we could
pull it up, but like, I don't know about you guys.
I've been getting no sun this entire year.
My shoes are the same color as my calves.
That's just all white.
Oh, we can white balance off of that, man.
Is that it?
I saw the picture we tweeted and I'm just like,
oh my god, this is, I gotta get some vitamin D.
I have been going outside more in probably the last year
than I have in like the last five.
Yeah, that's complete opposite.
I am like going out and it's just like give me a baseball on a bat and let me just
get in like a field. We're hop and fences. I don't care.
Going crazy. It feels so good being out in the sun for like just a few hours.
You're young again. Yeah. Oh, it's fucking great.
That's my midlife crisis.
Just going to go hop offensively baseball. Get drunk on a little league field, it's great.
Where he's at, go.
I don't know.
You don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know what did I do outside.
Yeah, I just want to walk in there.
Yeah, you go on walks.
Yeah.
I don't walk.
Right away.
I just, because like, by the time I'm down the work day,
I just want to do nothing.
And for some reason, like going on a walk seems like something. I've even got on night walks.
Didn't give any sun from that. No I know. Well you get a little bit off the moon.
You get moon. Got a lot of moon. Can you get a tan off the moon? Oh boy.
With enough magnifying glasses. Baby we're one roasted podcast baby we're back.
Can you get a tan off the moon? Has magnified the moon and given themselves a tan Baby we're what was your podcast baby we're back
Has magnified the moon and given themselves a tan I bet it's happened. I don't think it's I don't think it's bright enough
What percent of the sun is the moon good in how
Barbara look at my fucking calves
I was like am I wearing socks?
I'm gonna have like a boat at night. He's seen this.
Barbara, stick what he a legs over the side.
You cannot get a tan off the moon.
Who says?
Science.
Oh, okay.
I'll accept it.
It's a tough question for you guys.
Damn.
I don't know if I'm allowed to change subjects where we're going.
Oh, God, yeah.
Welcome to the Rooster Seat Podcast.
Change the subject all you want Barbara.
It doesn't reflect ultraviolet light.
It reflects ultraviolet light.
There you go.
Wait, so the moon absorbs ultraviolet?
It just doesn't get effect.
We need more moons.
Why isn't the moon tanned?
Barbara, go ahead.
Go ahead.
It is a dark gray color.
Barbara, go ahead.
Okay, so I have a couple questions that I want to pose to the group.
These are questions that have come up with me and Trevor at home.
And all we have are each other.
You can't take us on another spoon journey.
You just can't do it.
I think these are four weeks of content.
Some of these are popular debates.
So it's not going to come as like a surprise.
So the first one is actually more specific to me in general.
I had a stuffed animal as a kid that was a bear. And this bear
had like a little like sleepy night cap and then bunny slippers on it. So I called it
sleepy bear because I was very creative. And then Trevor goes, well, so it had four bunny
slippers and I went, no, it had bunny slippers on its feet. And he goes, well, aren't,
it's these also feet. And so if you And so if I said I have a stuffed animal bear
that has bunny slippers, what would you think?
It's got two.
Two. Two. Two. Okay. Thank you.
It's stuff because the important thing there
is a stuffed animal bear.
If it was, if you said I have a real bear, yeah.
If you said I have a real bear with bunny slippers,
you better show me a bear with four slippers.
No. Yeah.
A teddy bear.
Bears have hands.
Bears have hand paws.
But what's the difference between the two?
Because I was wondering about the two.
I was like, are they just four feet that all look the same?
Or are these different?
Think about it.
Think about a bear eating honey or going after a beehive.
It's not going to use its feet.
It's going to use its hands to take it.
No.
It's going to use its feet to climb up the tree.
Well, are you saying that Abez,
well how many fingers does a bit have?
I'm gonna see him five per paw.
Because like a cat.
All bears have paws.
A cat has five.
Oh, so what are you doing that dude?
A cat has also paws.
You have a different, like a cat has five front claws,
but eight back ones.
Do bears have different hands?
Yeah.
They lack thumbs on their front limbs.
We hang on.
They lack thumbs so their front limbs aren't arms.
They are feet.
Arms have hands attacked.
Then an arms that feet.
A gorilla has arms because they have fully articulated thumbs
and are able to manipulate.
Don't define hands.
Dude, if you're walking on all four. But if you're walking on all four
I agree with you guys
I don't like that definition
but this is only an arm because there's a thumb here
if you lose your hand
it's not an arm anymore of a leg
you have a peg leg
if you lose your hand.
What if he just loses your thumb?
Pirate.
Then you've got to pull.
This is what's like.
Right?
This is feet.
Look, I mean, this is feet.
Hang on.
This is feet.
There you go.
I blew Eric's mind the other day when I said that.
Most languages refer to toes and foot fingers.
Can you believe this shit?
How do you say toes in French?
I don't know.
Oh, okay, sorry.
I'm sorry.
I mean, everything's got bad news.
These are toa.
That's fingers.
I imagine these aren't toa.
I think I read somewhere that the Chinese word
dot de piette.
What?
DOIGT?
Do what? That's doa. Do I have that piette? Fingers of the foot? What? D-O-I-G-T? D-O-I-G-T? D-O-I-G-T? D-O-I-G-T?
D-O-I-G-T?
D-O-I-T?
D-O-I-T?
Fingers of the foot?
Oh my god.
I swear it's a foot!
Almost every language, it's foot fingers.
What the f-?
Foot fingers.
Invent a word, bro.
What the f-?
I read that the Chinese word for penguin translates to business goose. So I'm going to talk to you later.
I'm going to talk to you later.

I'm going to talk to you later. I'm going to talk to you later. I'm going to talk to you later. I'm going to talk to you So, to summarize, we're on your side of the bear.
The Trevor's wrong.
Trevor surely doesn't think the front of a bear is for feet.
He has four feet.
But then a teddy bear is never on all fours.
I think Trevor was just doing the Trevor thing
where he just wanted to pose an alternative
to what I thought was reality.
The word you're looking for is argue.
No.
You made a lot.
That's like a gentle,
that's the favorite of the feet. Your is just say argue, it's a lot. That's like a gentle. That's a great.
The fingers of the feet, you're just say argue.
It's fine.
All right.
Well, that was the first one.
The next one, these are more popular ones.
You have a giraffe.
OK.
It's wearing a turtle neck.
Does the turtle neck come up to its head
or just kind of a little bit up onto its neck?
The whole point of a toe neck, though,
is that it meets the chin.
Yeah, it's got to go up to the head.
So it covers the whole neck.
Yeah, it has to.
Okay.
That's good.
There's no question.
We, these aren't necessarily what's we disagreed on.
It was just questions we posed for.
The cover suddenly goes up a little bit.
I know it.
You have a dog.
I do.
This dog is wearing pants.
You got that?
Does it cover all four legs and go up to halfway on the body
or does it only cover its hind legs?
I know.
You did a good diagram for this one.
The point of pants is to cover junk.
So it only covers the back legs.
That's right.
Absolutely.
100%.
Isn't it to cover legs?
That's the side benefit.
No, it's got to be the, it's just the hind legs.
Yeah, just the hind legs.
I've seen a lot of videos of dogs wearing pants
and they're just the hind legs. OK've seen a lot of videos of dogs wearing pants and they're just the hind legs.
Okay, fair enough.
Yeah, final question.
Cyclops.
How does he cry?
Is it one tear that goes down?
No, no, no.
Or does it come out the sides of either of his eyes?
Oh God, it's gonna come out the sides
much better than the other.
That's actually one that Trevor thought of.
That's a good one. It's the sides of both eyes. How much better than the other colors? That's actually one that Trevor thought of. That's a good one.
It's the size of both eyes, I think.
Well, the eyelid pushes it to the side, I think.
Yeah.
Well, the way the duct, it gets like straight down there.
So it says to cry.
I mean, if the tear duct was in the middle, maybe.
Yeah.
I guess we tend to cry out at the one of the corners, right?
Yeah.
That would be crazy if it just was the middle
and it rolled just down as
Joseph and his mouth and he'd drink his own tears and then it was just
sort of like a never ending cycle.
That'd be weird.
I like this.
Yeah.
A little.
Yeah. Anything else?
I think that's all I have for today.
But and I confirmed in Mandarin, it is business goose.
That's so crazy.
There's another language.
I want to say it was maybe Mandarin or maybe Cantonese.
I guess Chinese is too vague.
Yeah, where they were saying the way that it's really easy
to learn because once you learn a certain letter represents,
they add something like it was something that had a slash
through it to indicate that it was half of it.
And it was basically a picture of the letter would indicate what the word was.
I forget what language it was, but this is a great story.
I-
Going a lot of places.
I don't know why a couple of weeks ago I was reading up on the differences between
Mandarin and Cantonese. I was trying to understand the differences between the languages.
And I guess people, there's the same amongst people
who speak Cantonese, I think.
They say that people who speak Mandarin
trying to talk to people who speak Cantonese
is like the chicken trying to talk to the duck.
That's like, oh, I'm interested.
Oh, that's a kind of a cool, same.
But I guess one of them has their tonal languages.
One of them has four tones, and one of them has like their tonal languages one of them has four tones and one of them has seven tones
So they're very similar, but how many tones does English have English not a tonal language?
Oh my parents would disagree right don't use that tone
Imagine it was funny it's not a tonal language
Go to your room. Get your room. Get your room.
Get your room.
Ah.
Ah.
Ah.
Oh, he's that tone.
Mom, stop.
We were in a meeting earlier today and Blaine kept putting emphasis on weird words.
Yeah, he said he's like, I'm just, I'm, yes, sorry guys for the noise.
I'm just making some cold brew like the way.
What the fuck?
What the fuck?
He kept saying that on purpose.
He kept just having sentences where he was putting the emphasis on a weird word
Yeah, and we're like are you okay?
The answer is no
That's weird cool bro. Yeah
So it was so strange it's weird like just having putting the emphasis on like
Not even just like this a wrong a weird, a weird word in the sentence makes sense.
Was he just having like some weird bet with Chris,
and they would say he could, I don't know.
No, absolutely not.
These are just these people.
That's exactly right.
Exactly.
That's just us.
Blaine has been talking about his hair
because his also got really long.
Not so long.
And according to you've seen him recently.
And he's just like, I don't know.
I'm thinking about keeping it.
And then the back of my mind, Blaine,
you might be watching right now.
You should cut your hair.
You should.
Oh, why?
Because I think, especially if you're in the dating world,
more people, I think, would be into the clean hair look that he gets going versus the long hair.
I think there's this.
Yeah.
I think some people really pull off the long hair well. Some people that pull it off, okay?
And some people don't.
All right, Kim, camera on me.
Hey, Blaine, I think you look great, man.
I think Blaine, you have to let me finish.
I think you pull it off.
You had your soul, Barbara, and now we talked about
noninterrupting one another.
So here's the thing, Blaine, get some conditioner.
You're gonna get that main look in, right.
It's gonna be looking good. Pull it back in a bun, ooh.
You're gonna be looking so cool,
do two buns in the back like a samurai.
Chad?
Here's the thing about Blaine, right?
Very good looking guy.
Very good looking guy.
And great shape.
He cuts his hair, he looks like all the other
really buff good looking dudes.
With his hair, he's like the really buff good looking dude,
but with an edge that is a bit different and I think a bit manic
You never know what you're gonna get right right so I think he should keep it
I think it you know I might be off base here Glenn
I think the long hair does look good on you. I think you want to keep it
But I think it's the compare or it's the combination of the long hair
He's super buff and he works out in these like bright pink converse shoes and he just like screams looks like a buff
Dude from the 80s, and I think that's his vibe. Okay, that's very true
It's very true. I still think he should have two buns in the back like a Samurai. I just think he should do I get the man bun
Like if you're gonna go long go long
Do I do one on the top and then you do a second one that's on the back and then people are like whoa
What's this guy's deal? Yeah, the unfortunate thing my head my head when I got it cut was almost the perfect length for long hair
It wasn't quite long enough because the ponytail didn't work unless it was on the top of my head
If I had it on the back the front bits here wouldn't quite stay in and I turn my head a few times and then they'd be like this
Just right over my eyes Fucking annoying and I was like you're speaking to every person who's had long hair
And has been in that awkward middle stage. Just like cut it and they want to put into a ponytail and they just can't and I
I remember that from when I grew my hair when I was 15
I was like, yeah, you really got to push through this and I did back then push all the way through and it was a piece of
Best have that a front ponytail in a back ponytail until it's long enough.
The only way I could do it was to have two like a Star Wars.
Yeah, or you just use like clips and bobby pins.
Yeah, that's just annoying.
Yeah, that's extra work.
Extra maintenance that you shouldn't have to do today.
How to shower, used like that much shampoo.
Oh, it was dry in like four minutes.
It was amazing.
Yeah, dude, I'm at the point I have to shampoo three times.
Yeah. Like, because I haven't dude, I'm at the point. I have to shampoo three times. Yeah.
Because I haven't cut my hair either since quarantine started.
And it's just like, it's also grown exponentially this way.
So it's a lot of shampoo.
I don't mean this to be like an insult or anything.
Lay it on.
But when you do that, it just makes me think
of cousin it from the head of the technology.
Like it's just so much.
Whoa.
No offense, feel like a hideous hammer.
You don't know he's hideous. Oh, we know he has to. Yes, no offense. Feel like a hideous hammer.
You don't know these hideous.
Oh, we know yes.
Yes, yes.
A lot of hair.
I like that reference.
Whether you say someone looks like
cousin it or the girl from the ring will only depend on what color their hair is.
Yeah.
It's good.
Because I had black hair.
It would have been the girl from the ring.
Do you consider cutting your own bangs?
At least once a week.
Ooh, I think you should do it.
I've done it before.
Oh, you should do it again. I've actually done it like two or three times,
and it's actually worked out.
See?
But I regretted every time.
And I keep seeing videos of people grabbing all the front of their hair,
pulling it down, cutting it across the front.
And then it goes like, and they're like,
Oh no, but why is everyone, what's the good outcome for that?
They want it to be like, straight bangs.
What they need to do, and if you're watching at home
and want to cut your bangs,
let me give you a quick tutorial.
Tweet at us if you do that by the way, please.
If you cut your own bangs, I would love to see.
Put your hair on front.
Make sure it's like mostly dry and straight.
You don't want to do this with like your hair wavy.
Make a triangle.
Find like a place you want your bangs to start.
Make a triangle.
Put the rest of your hair back.
You get this little piece.
All right, you twist it.
And then you cut like that,
because that'll give you this.
Mm.
It won't give you this.
It'll give you the layer.
Damn, that was actually a lot more impressive
than I thought it was.
Why didn't you do that?
I didn't know the information.
Wait until the doubt to my ass gone.
We blew it.
You could have had cutting bangs.
It would have been awesome. You're gonna have like a lady Gaga poker face style like front
bang that would have been cool right yeah you could have done so much stuff
before you had all your hair off we could have given you like one of those like
Lord Farquad I thought I thought about all the the funny things I could do I
thought about like using it in content like being on camera walking off
coming back it's gone and then I, get this freaking hair up my head
as soon as possible, it's pissing me off.
Yeah, I don't blame you.
I don't blame you for that.
But we're edging slowly, are we back to normalcy?
Yeah, we're getting there.
Yeah, I'm still very surprised when I won't
pass the mirror, but other than that, I think it's a good
direction.
Do you think a lot's going to, when people talk about
getting back to normalcy?
Do you think a lot's going to change? Because it doesn't to normalcy? Like do you think a lot's gonna change?
Cause it doesn't feel like a lot's gonna change.
What do you mean by that?
I like it changed from how it was or how it is now.
No, no, no, from, from how it was.
Cause I remember when this started and we were kind of like getting in like the
think of it, people were like, we're not gonna shake hands anymore.
And I just keep thinking like, you're out of your fucking mind for thinking that.
And then people like, well, sports stadiums are like, there's no way they're
gonna keep doing sports.
It's like they never fucking stopped.
Right.
Are you kidding me?
I really, what are you talking? Like they never stop doing them to have people there.
The opening day for the Rangers baseball game was fucking bad. You fucking see that. So like
how much do you think effectively is like I think people like wash their hands more I guess but like
I think mask will become a little more popular when traveling. I think like oh that's good. Yeah
which I think is actually a good thing because I mean I haven't gotten sick this year
Yeah, I'm wearing a mask at all, but also just traveling. I think it's gonna become a little more normal
I know places like Japan like people have been doing that for
Plenty of places around the world where it's common. I think that and the other long-term effect
I think we'll see is that I feel like some places of work are going to switch to more remote working
More often seeing how cheap it could be without having to have real estate and stuff like that.
Or like physical work locations, which is crazy.
I'm coming in once a week for the podcast Monday, five to seven. That's all you get.
Well, it's also possible that we might adjust to like a mix between working from home and working in person because some of the stuff we've been able to do just fine from home. Well, I think it's not ideal, but you know, I think we've talked about this too,
where the working from home schedule allows you, as weird as it sounds,
it allows you to create more in a shorter amount of time,
because I'm not having to go between this studio and that office and this place over here
in the meeting. That is said, for that. Yeah, I have the cameras on, the lights are on.
Do this thing, do this thing, do this thing,
have a meeting, more content.
I don't have to drive anywhere.
I don't have to go to the other office.
I don't have to go do anything.
But I will say the downside is
it doesn't let you see other things
that people are working on.
Like it makes collaboration more difficult.
Like before when we were all working
in the other building over here,
it's like I could walk by someone's office,
be like, you know, hey, what are you working on?
No, you want to check this out this cut?
Yo, I would just add it.
Yeah, that's great.
You know, and just like, hey, grab, come on over.
Let's do this thing.
Oh, yeah, collaborating with people who don't live here
has been a lot easier.
That's true.
And so like collaboration in that sense has been good.
The thing I think I miss the most is that the walking
in the hall, like quick, like I have a question,
you have an answer kind of like quick thing.
Like I haven't seen Nicholas in forever and then now it's like
Okay, this is an easy way to just go hey you're right. Hey, this thing. Hey, okay cool quick
This just like quick little off this there should be a section of slack where like you're as you move between
Slat channels you have to go into the slack hallway
to go into the Slack hallway. And you see everyone in here.
You go,
and you have like a set amount of time to talk to them
before they leave the whole way.
And they're like,
hey, what you're having been?
And you can stand there if you want.
And then you just go into the new,
if there was just a setting where,
you know, normally right now you have,
when in your direct message is paying,
it's people you've recently communicated with,
whether they're online or not.
If you have the option, your settings to be like,
rather than show me people are recently communicated with,
show me people who are online and active right now.
Oh, I like that.
As they're active, they're popping up to the top of the list
and be like, oh, I need to talk to that person.
It's like still that kind of discovery thing.
I think any of us, or any of you, rather,
go and just message someone randomly.
Hey, what's up?
You have me and Daniel Porman just kind of hanging out.
I love the idea of like that.
I mean, unless I saw someone's name
and I reminded me to ask about something.
Yeah. I recorded something unless like, I saw someone's name and it reminded me to ask about something.
Like, I recorded something this morning with Blaine.
And when I woke up this morning, I thought,
shit, I forgot to send him a message on Sunday
to get him to prepare for what we were doing today.
And I ideally he probably wouldn't have been on Slack
on Sunday, but it's still like,
if I had seen his name in a messaging program,
I'd be like, oh right, Blaine, I need to tell him that thing.
Yeah. Now instead of just like running into someone in the hall and asking
a question or like stopping by their desk, you have to make a fucking hour
meeting for everything.
And it feels out of this conversation with Patrick last week, where a
quick conversation where you could just go to someone and go like, so
hang on, what the fuck is up?
Hang what happened?
Now it is a, okay, let's anticipate this thing for two days because that's when we're
both free, so we both have to dread having this conversation about like a thing that could
easily be solved face to face.
I don't understand how you can't just slack someone there.
Like if I have to talk to you about work, I'll just type the entire question into Slack and then you answer it. job done. Right. That's based on our
schedule. Yeah. But there's sometimes misunderstandings can happen from text. And I
know I've been guilty of that where I'll get a message and I'll I'll just
interpret it the totally wrong way. I'll get pissed off. Then I'll talk to the
person like, oh yeah, it's not a big deal. Yeah's like, like overreacted, that's my fault.
I'm fired up, fuck you.
Oh, I'm sorry, never mind, I was wrong.
I'll never mind, it's cool.
I'm an asshole.
The bad thing though about working from home
has been like, when you're at work,
people know you're not there if you're not there.
Yeah.
And if it's lunchtime, people are having lunch.
When you're working from home,
there is no lunchtime that exists.
Most of our stuff overlaps with lunch time,
people book stuff back to back to back all day.
So it's like there's no separation really of work schedule and life.
I now write something into my calendar for half an hour or an hour
where it's just in the middle of the day where people can't book against it.
And I just write, eat idiot or hey, more on eat a sandwich.
And if people look at it, I hope they go,
Jesus Christ, I hope this guy eats.
Am I just start putting a hole to my colors?
Does this leave me alone?
Yes, I do it.
The period of time.
Do it, people leave you alone, it works.
It's great, message me.
Yep, I will say.
For this half hour.
I will say, I do hope that there is a time
where I feel way more efficient working from home
for a lot of my job, where I can like fire off messages
or get stuff done or whatever.
I feel like I can be responsible to myself
and like get things sort of rolling
and moving or whatever.
But man, I really miss being just in the studio like this.
Fuck.
It's way better.
Man, it feels so much better to just do this.
I love that my webcam isn't overheating right now.
I know, I love that I don't have to export my just do this. I love that my webcam isn't overheating right now. I know we do.
I love that I don't have to export my audio after this.
So it's that day.
When I sat down before you got here,
we were having a conversation about which episode it was,
and I think Mike or someone said it was 6.44.
And in my head, it's like, oh, let me make a folder
for that right now.
I was like, I'm going to get ready for this.
Yeah, it's a nice change.
And I'm hoping that as more of the country
gets vaccinated and like certain restrictions ease up and you know warner media whoever controls
like the regulations that we have to follow here. Yeah, it's still a pain in the ass hole.
And it's I mean, we're still treating. Yeah, I mean, we're being very, very safe and we're kind
of treating the situation as if we're not vaccinated. Right. Because that's just kind of like what is part of the course right now?
Is it raining?
I think it's a motorcycle, something else.
Oh, we should get motorcycles.
But yeah, I'm hoping that at some point soon, like those things kind of ease up a little
and people could start working in studio again because things are going pretty quickly here.
It's good, yeah.
It feels, a bunch of stuff is opening here.
No, it's just a good one.
Are you thinking about getting motorcycles?
What kind of motorcycle do you want?
Do you want a motorcycle like Jeff has where he pretends
it's a bicycle, but it's fucking not?
I don't like it.
It's a nightmare.
Oh, yeah, I don't know about a bike ride with Jeff.
You guys should listen to fuckface in about two weeks
when that episode comes out.
What's happened two weeks from now?
It might be next week.
I don't think might be next week.
I don't think it's this week.
I remember it's the pain, because I wanted to make a little
audio cut to contradict the bullshit, the Andrew spouse.
But I had to go into the files of the episode,
because it was now.
I couldn't just grab it off the website or...
Just ask Nick for it.
Nick will like collude with you, however whatever you need.
Yeah, well, he's got like new kid business.
You have Nick theories that you wanted to get into
on fuckface.
I do.
I know I have to get to them on the next recording
because Nick wasn't there for the last one,
but I got very good.
You guys look like Nick had this kid
and it's like a whole situation and everything.
And Gavin is like,
I have like Nick theories.
It's really just I wanted to ask him something,
but he wasn't there.
It's a name and a Nick theory.
Nick is maybe the nicest guy that works here that has just, that hasn't been in any content
that wasn't, he was just, you know, an audio guy, whatever.
And then I've got to read a note that I gave to Nick because he will put up the episode
for us to give notes on.
Let me find this one.
He really is the nicest person.
He is.
And he was never in anything until Michael bought him a monkey mask and went you're the sauce monkey
Now there's a plush. He's the face jam mascot. He gave the plush to his like he was in death little roosters
Yeah, that's what I'm like it's crazy
It's crazy that after like years. It's just like you're a meme now and he goes
Okay, I'm the monkey
This was a work note that I gave Nick today as he posted.
I think the episode that goes out on Wednesday.
I wrote, I think we should cut the anal blood sneeze story
around the 10 minute mark.
It just the gross detail.
Well, this is a work conversation.
He's like, we'll do.
Yeah, let me just like delve it in there.
He's like, let me trim it.
There's a lot of stuff ever should use that. It's one of those things where you's like, will do. Yeah, he's like, Delvin and they's like, let me trim it. There's a lot of stuff ever should use that.
Like, it's one of those things where you're like,
I can't believe people are saying this
are doing this at a real company and like this exists.
Like, there is a Slack channel that's just called 420.
420.
And every day at 420, people just put this emoji.
I'm like, that's the whole channel.
That's awesome.
There's a Slack channel called Burgers.
And if you join it, you can't leave.
You get invited back.
John Mays tried to close it.
They reopened it.
And they re-invited John Mays.
Is there any discussion in there?
No!
Sometimes you go, might need a burger today.
And then sometimes it's just nonsense.
It's great.
Oh, that is what. Speaking of burgers, I mean, whenever, when things get a little bit more comfortable
and people start looking for, I want to get lunch.
Yes.
I want to get lunch with human beings, not in my house.
Yep.
We can schedule it.
Yeah, we should.
I had a burger yesterday.
It was delicious.
Like hamburger hamburger?
Yeah, like hamburger hamburger.
No hamburger hamburger. Where? From Mighty Fine. Like hamburger hamburger? Yeah, like hamburger. Now hamburger hamburger.
Where?
From Mighty Fiend.
You are a real fan of Mighty Fiend.
Mine's good.
It's the first time the viper fucked up my order though.
Oh no.
I ordered a half pound and I got home.
It was a quarter pound.
Motherfucker.
That's off the bug.
I know, that's half my burger was good.
I've made the opposite mistake.
When Bernie took us on that like food tour of Austin
to like film that vlog where we were going
around to different restaurants.
And like mighty fine I think was like our fourth or fifth stop.
I ordered the half pound, some of the quarter pound,
not really knowing that I had the option
and I was like I have to finish this now.
Oh my god.
Why don't you just see half?
And then it's exactly what you wanted.
Well, cause part of the rule was that we had to finish
our food and I'm just kidding.
I just, brim made the rule.
Cause we had to do it.
It's so delicious. It's so delicious. But it was also really good. So I had to finish it food. Now I'm just kidding. I just, Bernie made the rule. We had to do it for, right?
I ate it, but it was also really good.
So I had to finish it.
Mine is very good.
I like it.
Oh, you see no alchemy now.
Oh, I'm in a video in there.
Oh, my God.
I lost someone that was with you.
Hands up.
That's the last time I was there.
Yeah.
I think you know, first lunch.
Two years ago, you're in a half ago.
You may be Jeff and Jason.
Yeah.
That's downtown, right?
Yeah, yeah.
It's on sixth. It's like right at the end where you go I don't
want to go any further yeah yeah I've been I can't help yeah yeah
this is the end this is it I maybe I would have gone to easy tiger a
little further but they're even they pull out they're gone now too
nothing you I people are making this emoji
in front of me my number one before we in text.
I'm sure it is.
We had to go get a COVID test yesterday, most of us.
I hope I'm before.
I'm going to get a casualy drag you under this bus.
There you are.
You're in your spot.
And I've never been out here to the studio,
I guess, around that time.
We had a window that we could get the COVID test.
That's how you.
It was like right around 10, 30 yesterday.
And after I got the COVID test,
I was driving down the street here.
And you know, right down the street,
there's that big church.
And I guess I'd never driven by that church
at a time when there was a service about. Church is happening, yeah.
Right.
And as I was driving by, they have like dudes in suits with big signs standing along the street
that say, we saved a seat for you in like all capitals like.
The save does also big.
Yes.
Yeah, I saw the same guys.
And they're like out there like showing you the traffic.
And I was I drove past them and I thought,
they must be, like, they must be in trouble.
Like, they've got the shitty job.
Like, they have to go out and hold the sign at the street
because I can't imagine someone driving by
just deciding to stop off the cuff and go into church.
I was like, I have a shower today.
I'm wearing like a dirty t-shirt and some old shorts right now.
I would not stop me like, you know what?
Yeah, they did save a seat for me.
Oh, man, yeah.
There was time.
The thought of the audience, is it the people who just got in the car?
And we're like, which church?
It's just driving around.
I'm gonna find a new one today.
I'm in my Sunday mat.
Or someone who just did something really bad and they're like,
I should probably, I should probably go get saved today.
Why did I throw that dog out the window?
They say the sea for me?
It was a, it was a, it was a, it was just so weird to see that.
I can't imagine anybody ever pulling over.
Maybe it's just like, so it's in your mind and later you're like,
church, yeah.
Yeah, because you remembered.
Talking about it now, now you know about it.
And then we say the seat for you.
They have stuff like that in England or what?
Guys holding signs in front of me.
I feel like I've never seen anyone hold a sign there.
I feel like the signs do it.
I think it's very American.
They shove them on a pole.
The pole does the trick.
It doesn't need to be spinning.
Sometimes you get one of those wind powered ones
where it just spins the same thing around.
That's about as far as it goes.
I've never seen someone toss in arrows and let.
Listen, you've got to get a job where you can here.
There's a job of a pole somewhere.
Someone's going to take it.
That's a, like, the sign spinner thing,
I think it's going to be uniquely like early 2010s.
I don't think it's going to like stick around.
I think you'll see.
I think you will see him from time to time,
but I don't think it's going to be as prevalent
as it was six years ago or whatever. Yeah, it's um
Because they automated it somehow with mannequins that hold the sign. Have you seen that? Yeah where it's just like a mannequin body
And then like a robot arms that go like this so they're just like moving it and you're like wow
They just fired that guy from little Caesars, huh? Like he doesn't
Five five bucks. Yeah, can I bitch about something? Oh, fuck, yeah.
Is it about robot taking people's jobs?
It's related to a sign.
Okay. Here's your sign.
I was driving around yesterday.
Save the seat for you.
I was driving down 183, not too far from here.
And, you know, they have those big signs
that they do, like, amber alerts,
like they'll put, like, information upon them.
I was driving by one and it said,
clear alert.
Okay, yes, okay.
Yeah. And I was like, what the fuck it said clear alert. Okay, yes, okay. Yeah.
And I was like, what the fuck is a clear alert?
What is a clear alert?
There's an amber alert, there's a silver alert.
Amber alert and silver alert, I've seen a blue alert.
Blue alert?
What is a clear alert?
There's a clear alert, there's a camo alert.
What do they mean?
That's where you have to salute the military.
Yeah, yes.
How did you know?
Did you know?
I'm constantly camo alerting.
I had to look at it.
A clear alert is...
It's a cis-law enforcement
locating and rescuing missing kidnap
or abducted adults or
an immediate danger of injury or death.
Clear.
Right.
There's so many other colors that aren't used.
As far as we know.
We have too many alerts.
I would say red alert.
That's a red alert to me.
No, there is no red alert.
I'm sorry.
What?
Is it because it's used to be?
I told you all the alerts.
There's no red alert.
What's the other?
Both of you.
Amber, silver, blue, camo, clear.
Okay.
What's camo?
Well, you've saluted the military.
Amber is the color of my energy.
And then clear is for adults adults which should be red.
Silver is for old people, I assume. Like they're here. Okay.
Like my general alert is the military, basically the military equivalent of a blue alert, I think. Oh, so like
Person in the military was shot or hurt or something or I'm gonna. I'm gonna. gonna look. Cause it's in a blue alert where a police officer has been shot.
Yes, a blue alert is designed to speed in the apprehension
of violent criminals who kill or seriously wound local,
state, or federal law enforcement officers.
It is an ambide not even referring to the color of the-
Right, that's what I'm getting at.
That one's name.
Right.
It's like, oh, a-
A- Dave alert.
We got a Dave alert.
It's named after a person.
It's not named for the- Wait, I thought it was named after the color. No, no, no, it named after a person. It's not named for the
I thought it was named after the color. No, no, no, it seemed after a person. Why is there they also color though?
Yeah, exactly
It was the first one and the person who made the next one thought it was a color
Not a person, but that's a water gate thing right everything is a gate
Something gate. Yeah, and and I can't
I can start fucking stand when people. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't.
I can't.
I can't.
I can't.
I can't. I can't.
I can't.
I can't.
I can't.
I can't. I can't.
I can't.
I can't.
I can't.
I can't.
I can't. I can't.
I can't. I can't.
I can't.
I can't. I can't.
I can't.
I can't. I can't.
I can't.
I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. Oh, I think I did because that's whatever is going on with him.
And there are no politics anymore from me.
All the politics from me. That guy's a fucking maniac.
A camel alert is designed to notify the public of a missing current or former member of the
United States Armed Forces. Like Jeff, this whole alert thing. I feel like either I just
don't think I had an iPhone for very long in England or something
But in America you can switch on or turn off alerts that just come through
I guess you're carrier
And it is it like AT&T sending me these things of Verizon. I guess but your phone
I've never had this in England your phone will just go
Max volume in the whatever time of night and it scares the shit I mean every time yeah, and it's not for anyone
Well, who's gonna it's gonna it's gonna maybe like one zero point zero zero one of I guess that's all point of alerts, right?
But does it have to sound like that?
That's why I just I pulled it a learn can it just be a notification or a vibration?
I mean you would check your phone. Yeah, because I'm not gonna be in beds at 2.00 am and be like I better get out
Look I better get out now and I'll be like oh I guess I am, and be like, I better get out, look!
I better get out, I'm coming out!
No, I'll be like, oh, I guess I know the name,
and like, all the heavens, people turn it off.
I've disabled them on my phone,
because I don't wanna get them anymore.
Well, I have my own sluggish,
because I'm a good citizen, so.
No.
You must get out in the middle of the night then,
to look for every animal that comes through,
or every pamphler.
