I was gonna say, can I call you on your bullshit because before you were like, ah, I don't want that. I don't want people to sing for me. I didn't, I said it as a joke and she fucking did it. I mean, Bethany did it? Yeah. Smart lady, good job Bethany.

No, bad job. Is anyone coming to that here? I'm not going. It's your own birthday. Gus loves presents and he loves hugs. Bring both of those. She's like shoes signing them. Signing shoes.

Smelling them, touching them. Gus, it might be the acoustics in here. Did you just look at Bethany and say, no hand job? Is that what you said? No. Bethany, do you have the judges on this? I hope so. All right, for that.

So we're doing a week of these. You're doing always open. And we're doing what life on the spot as well. Yeah. I'll be on that. Then off topic, what are we missing? I think I'll do it. We're doing glitch movies or anything like that? I don't think so. I think that's all of it. I. I'll be on that. Then off topic. What am I missing?

I think I'll do it. We do English, will you turn anything like that? I don't think so. Okay. I think that's all of it. I think I read all of them. And just to make sure it was a true RTX experience tonight we had a metal detector with a four hour line.

Oh no. And then we turned away 25% of the people. So just like RTX. Hey, Gus, I found the greatest restaurant in Austin that you're gonna go to every single day for the rest of your life now. Go on. Is it a one person restaurant? Close.

No, no, no. A one person restaurant is a nightmare. I've eaten in that before. You're getting warm. You're getting warm. Is it a no interaction restaurant? So Austin has the Austin School for the Deaf. So we have...

Oh, no. Where are you going with this? Ha-ha. We have a high deaf population per capita as opposed to other cities. This restaurant apparently is owned by a deaf owner and then has, I think, from what I could tell, a hundred percent all hearing impaired staff.

Interesting. So there's no talking. You don't even order from the menu. You just, they have a bigger version of the menu on the counter, and you just point to whatever you want, everything. And then you get this, and then you get food. And that's it.

Are you not allowed to talk in there, then? Are you just, they're just talking. I think people just get kind of quiet as a result. We were there, but you just don't want to talking. I think people just get kind of quiet as a result. We were there and I, but you just don't want to place you and have to be quiet. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I'm not sure on a Montreal called. I think it's called noir, where a bunch of blind people work there. I'm just gonna call it noir. It's called noir.

It's completely in the dark, so it's like all blind servers and everything like that. So you sit in the dark and you're served meals in pitch black. This is literally the opposite of what Gus would want. We're describing the full spectrum of experiences for you here. You get something that Barbara's in. But I'm telling you, if you go to this place, it's on. Can you say get something in Barbara's in?

Get something in Barbrazen. After Bethany gets her hand job. Um, is that it? What is it? That's it! Point in, you shall see. Yeah, that's the place. How did you, who found that?

Is that Patrick? Yeah. Fucking man. But, uh, yeah, it's a great place and it's on South O'Mar. It's in that, uh that shopping center that's just north of the Broken Spoke where nothing lasts for more than like four months. That's where the ol' Alligretta Grill used to be.

There you go. Yeah, say something offensive about this that might offensive. Oh please. So I have my friends who went to a school that also had like a deaf class and they said that apparently because they don't know that they're making the noises. Okay, hold on.

Giles, how's he gonna finish this story? Barbara, way in here. They don't know they're making the noises, so people are just like humming all the time. No. Barbara, hold on. Barbara? I can't, I can't even.

I can't even. What a Blaine's friend has. I see what I see when I feel it's gonna be even more perfect. He, what a Blaine's friend's had sex with a deaf girl, and she made a ton of noise, and he's looking at me weird, so I'm going to stop saying this. No. Every time you walk by the bathrooms, you hear,

oh, because they don't know. So all right, well, I'll see you guys later. Hey, hey, speaking of weird noises out of the bathroom. Oh, right. We just had something really funny happen right before we came out here. We were backstage and we're all hanging out and Blaine says, all right, we're back. We're going to go take a real quick shit before we go out and do the podcast. So he goes into the bathroom.

Then about two minutes later, we're here like a shhhhhh. Like a scream. Everyone just stops and turns and looks at the bathroom and Blaine walks out like nothing happened. We're like, what happened in there? From our perspective, you said you were gonna take a quick shit. We heard a loud splash and you screamed. There was, I was churning on the faucet

and I don't know if it's connected to the water properly or not but it just like sprayed violent water on my hands and I was like, ah! But I had to wash my hands still because I didn't want to have peepee on my hands so so I was like, ah! But I had to wash my hands still, because I didn't want to have peepee on my hands. So then I was like, ah! No, I didn't pee on my hands, you're not asking me this. You're waiting for it, you're like, ah, set.

You act like that's weird though, because we had one of those go on moments as well, where you were talking to me in Barbara, and you were casually mentioning, sometimes, when you laugh super hard, Barbara, and you pee your pants. And Barbara, this happened to anybody. Where you raise your hand. Where you giggle so hard that you wet yourself a little bit.

Hey, it's all the same people that bought the gun shirt. Also many. That's our demo. Anyone here with a vagina should have raised your hand, by the way. I'm on to all of you. I know how it works. That happens. Blaine has a vagina apparently. So I can't get this image out of my head now.

But it was great, I love those moments because Blaine goes, you know what it's like when you're laughing sometimes and then you push your pants a little bit. And Barbara immediately goes, mm-hmm. And then Blaine just keeps talking about it. And luckily our, is he an intern or is he a new addition to the broadcast staff? In a turn. He was there, Johnny, on Johnny on the spot to back blame up and tell him absolutely

We we all piss our pants because he was in the room when you guys were making fun of blaine So when he walked on the like into the room. Yeah, and you guys were like hey Have you ever pissed your pants from laughing too much? Yes, sir? Yeah, absolutely sir I'll do it right now sir. There's a kinship with us in terms We understand the hardships speaking of bodily functions. Did you hear about that flight that got diverted because a passenger refused to stop farting? Was this like a protest like a fight broke out on this How do you how do you refuse to stop farting like who could control? It was a flight from Dubai to Amsterdam. And the pilot had to come on the PA and ask the passenger

to stop farting, so apparently it's melt terrible. And since he refused to stop farting, there was a fist fight that broke out. Wow, fuck yeah. With passengers? Was he farting during the fist fight? And the plane had to divert to Vienna. And the police had to come and take

like four people off the plane for fighting because of farting. That point, it's a biohazard risk. What's the charge? I think what's they started fighting? That's when they have to divert. There's got to be something else happening in this story. It can't just be because he was farting that he wanted to fight him.

Let's see, the passenger kept breaking wind on board a Transavia Airlines flight. The two Dutchmen sitting next to him didn't take very well to his flatulence, but the unashamed man was apparently not put off and refused to hold back. Wasn't there a flight that had to land because someone took a shit in the bathroom

and it smelled so bad? Yeah, it turned around. Yeah. Oh, did I tell you that we found out? Who's the model that's on Twitter that everybody follows? Christy Tegan? Right? Yeah.

We told the story about how she was on a flight to Hong Kong. To Tokyo. To Tokyo? That's it. Can I get a racist check on that one? All right. So she was going to Tokyo and then this other dude snuck on the plane and the two brothers ended up on the same plane

So four hours in they turned around and came back right and then we we laughed and said it would be really funny If he got on the wrong plane, but he was still going to Tokyo. He was still going to Tokyo. Yep, right That was the end result of that so the guy was on the on a plane going to the right place He had intentionally snuck onto that plane using his brothers reprintrinted boarding pass. Because they thought they were on the same flight together, but they had booked on different airlines. And he didn't want to fly on the other line without his brother. So his brother printed up two boarding passes,

and they snuck on with him. Yeah, you don't do that. Yeah. You know what happens? They turn a plane around. And then you have like 80 people pissed off you or however big the plane was. How many people do you think something to plane, Blaine?

Oh, on an international flight. Two Tokyo. 90? The Hong Kong. Yeah, 80 to 90. like 80 people pissed off of you or however big the plane was. How many people do you think something the plane played? Oh. On an international flight. Two Tokyo. 90? Be a Hong Kong. Yeah, 80 to 90. OK. OK.

Yeah. How many are there? Plus two or three hundred. It's not fair because you have like this stupid knowledge of airplanes like this. It's not so stupid right now, is it? Oh. On a relative scale.

So Gus, did you hear about this? I'm gonna have to look it up here, but this Carnival cruise that just kind of like you, you hear about this? I hear people laughing. I've been amping this up, I wanna hear about it. So, I'm just gonna read the lead on this. A 10-day Carnival cruise of the South Pacific turned it into a floating fight club last week. What? When a series of brawls broke out on board,

up to 30 passengers were injured on what some have described as, quote, the cruise from hell. The cruise line later apologized and offered everyone to 25% discount on future bookings. How did it all break out? What, why are they calling it a fight club? What happened? They're pointed close to the vest,

but there was, where people farted too much. Yeah. There was apparently a family group that had something like 28 people in it, and they showed up on a cruise ship of about 2000 people, and they just said, this is our ship, and they just started beating people up. And they were like families that just stayed locked

in their cabins because they were told don't roam the hallways alone Holy crap. It's came from New York on a boat She's they were punching women 16 year old kids everything we saw it. We saw everything I'm sure there were some passengers who were really hoping for like a Poseidon adventure kind of scenario They called up the mechanical people from down at the bottom of the ship the big boys To intimidate and basically do whatever they wanted to do to these passengers So I'm really a security was just beating up on these people and then they got the guys at like I guess shovel coal I don't know what they do at the bottom of a ship. They brought those dudes up and they just wailed on this family

for a couple of days. I just, now when you hear about something like this, maybe about 25% off, I mean. That's something to sneeze at, it's a deal. How can you beat that experience though? You can never match how awesome that vacation would be. No, but it's like congregate. That's a story, you've been a remember forever.

Now all of those people have been taught, it's like going to prison. They've all learned that this can work, and they're all gonna go and continue doing it on future cruises. Do we have a video from the cruise? Oh, is this true? Oh, I've seen this. Exclusive shocking.

Oh my god. Get the camera out of here. Oh my god. What the fuck? This went on for like eight days. Sorry. There's a random kicks in there. I can't tell who's beating who up.

Yeah, security's beating. Oh, look at that. Oh. Is that the captain, the guy in the white? Look at me. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god.

That's just good family fun right there. Yeah, that's great advertising. Speaking of travel horror stories, did you see that story about that woman who was at a train station in China? And she was traveling for Lunar New Year, but she didn't want to put her purse unattended through the X-ray machine.

So she held it and went through the X-ray machine with it. What? Tell me they have the picture. Oh, yeah. It looks like something out of a nightmare because she's moving, so like her head is all like shaped weird on the X-ray image, and then there's security footage. I'm like, you see the security guard's laughing,

and then this woman like stands up and comes up out of the X-ray machine with her purse. I think they're not dangerous. Yeah, I don't think... Yeah, there it is. Whoa! That's modern art. What the f-? That's the new Mona Lisa. Thank you, Ryan. Yeah, I don't think yeah, there it is whoa that's modern art What the fuck that's the new Mona Lisa? Thank you, right the thing is apparently doing during lunar New Year. It's a big travel It's a big travel season In China and lots of times people travel with a lot of cash

So it's speculated that she probably had a ton of cash in her bag and probably didn't want it to go through So that'll make it look more inconspicuous I'm glad she struck a pose though. She was like Do you have the only way she fits on the first step? Do you all have the other one? I like the other image way more. If y'all can pull that one up, the other one's really freaky. But it might be fun.

It wouldn't have been great if she actually had a gun in her bag and she came out the other side. Like, na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na- Well, here's the problem I've got with this, is not so much that passengers go nuts, as we saw from the cruise line footage there. But people on airplanes, like we said we haven't heard about anything a while, since the guy like, took a really bad dump on the plane, they turned it around, like this guy farting, that's a pretty tame story, based on some of the stuff we've talked about

on the podcast before. Like there was the guy, I think it was a famous musician, right? He got onto the drink cart. Jarrar de Pardue. Dumped it over, was it Jarrar de Pard famous musician, right? He got onto the drink cart. Gerard Depardieu. Dumped it over. Was it Gerard Depardieu? And then took a dump on the drink cart? I think that was Gerard Depardieu. And I mean, that's like...

Or like, Separdieu, do you... You can't compete with that. Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi had this really obnoxious woman. No, Gerard, you're only peed on a plane. Oh, that's it. Was it a flight attendant that shit on a cart? I don't remember. No, that's a dude who popped the exit ramp, drank beer off the drink cart, and then quit his job,

and then went down the slide. Did he also shit on the cart? He's my fucking hero. I love that guy. When we were going down to Sydney for RTX Sydney, I had a first-time flyer on the flight with me. So I flew Austin to Houston, then Houston to Sydney. I had a first-time flyer on the Austin to Houston leg.

She was a woman who looked like maybe she was a little older than I am, and she was sitting across the aisle and up one row. And she walked in and immediately I was like, oh, there's this woman's trouble. She walked in and she sat down and turned to the guy next to her and said, very loudly, I could hear it. I've never been on a plane before. I'm sorry, I'm gonna vomit all over you.

Oh, God. And the guy said, don't worry, it's fine. It's fine, she said, she kept saying, I told him to buy me a mega bus ticket. I'm just going to Katie. If you're from Austin, taking a plane to Intercontinental to get to Katie is about the dumbest way to get to Katie. Yeah.

Like Katie's like a 90 minute drive away. Yeah. And I think Katie to Intercontinental is like an hour drive. So there's no time being safe. It's a good, if you want to experience a flight for the first time to get it over with, it makes sense to do like a really short one. Well, but it doesn't sound like she wanted to be.

It seemed like an eternity because she then immediately started ordering drinks. Uh, and got, it's a 30 minute flight to Houston. She got drunk, like immediately. And then she kept saying, like the guy next to her at one point we're in the bulkhead, he, they were in the bulkhead. He stretched his legs out in front of him, and she said, she started screaming, what are you doing?

What are you doing? Are we crashing? Are you bracing yourself? Oh my God. And I was like, lady, chill, calm down. And the guy's like, no, I'm just stretching. They've just been sitting a little while, so I want to stretch my legs.

And she's like, okay, I'm going to vomit all over you. And then eventually we land in Houston. And I'm skipping over a lot of stuff that she said. She was absolutely insane. But we land in Houston and her phone rings, so she answers it and she says, yeah, I guess it's whoever paid for her plane ticket. Whoever she's gonna go see in Houston, in Katie.

She answers the phone, she's like, yeah, yeah, we just landed, we're still driving in the plane. Uh-huh, yeah, yeah, no, no, no, we're on the floor now. And here the guy in the robot, I'm gonna go, in the plane. Uh-huh. Yeah, yeah, no, no, no. We're on the floor now. And here, the guy in the robot, I'm going, on the floor. Like, what a weird way to describe what you're doing. And she's like, oh, no, no. No, you don't have to buy me a Jeep.

I'm so, I'm totally happy with my 2006 Mitsubishi. I was like, is she humble bragging? How does she have a car at the destination airport? I don't know. I have no idea. The woman is perplexing. Also, I would hate to invite someone down from Austin to Katie and I've got to buy them a fucking plane ticket to go down there.

And then you've got to pick them up at Annercona Nettle. Or I mean, I don't know if she's dry, who knows? Just picking up at their house. Right. Did she stand up as soon as you guys landed to get their bag? No, she didn't. Okay, thank you. All right.

I'm going to give her a pass on this one then. Yeah, it was... Did it? Give her a pass. It, thank you. All right. I'm going to give her a pass on this one then. Yeah, it was, give her a pass. It was, it was, it was, it was something else. Did it ever make it into an RTA? The stuff we used to do on planes? When we would travel a lot in the early days. I think so. And we were with the new flyers.

What did you used to do on planes? Well, we'd be with like, there'd be a nervous. I feel like you run into new flyers way less frequently now. Gus, would you agree with that? That's gone way down and so is people dumping them. Maybe you just don't hear from them. Maybe they're just not as vocal. They're just on the same thing. But in the past, I feel like we would know of somebody on the plane. Well, I think now, airline travel is so incredibly popular that people are maybe ashamed to say.

The economy of Arbra. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. Well, what we ran into is a couple different times. We were seated next. You know, as our buddy Andrew, remember Andrew Jackson? Mm-hmm. And we'd be sitting, were seated next to him. There's our buddy Andrew, remember Andrew Jackson? And we'd be sitting, oh, Jeff's laughing, Jeff's here. Oh, that's what I was saying. So they would sit down and they would, I don't know why they would talk to Jeff.

He's covered in tattoos. Usually people avoid him. Which I think is part of the strategy, right? It's a failed strategy. Yeah. Instead, they want to talk to you and touch you and ask you what this means and that means. Yeah.

Just tell them it's like all just old shitty punk bands album covers. It's all racist. But we would sit down on the plane and somebody would sit next to us and they would say to us, hey I just want to let you know I'm really nervous. This is my first time on a flight. I've never flown before I'm just super nervous. I'm like don't worry about it. We fly all the time. We fly two or three times a month. We got this, so don't worry about it. Then we'll be taken off, we'll be going down the runway, and I'll say really casually to Jeff,

yeah, we are not going fast enough to take off this time. I guess Jeff would say, nope. Didn't you guys also do the thing where you heard a noise and you go, what was that? What was that? What was that? Oh my God. You're terrible. That actually that? Oh my god.

You're terrible. That actually came from a real experience. My ex was a terrible flyer, but she had a good reason to be. She was on a flight. St. Louis is apparently just the center of every storm that comes across the US. It's like right. It's around about a bit around. There's around a lot of storms there.

And that's where TWA used to be their hub was in St. Louis. So she would always fly TWA when she was a kid. And one time they decided the pilot got ambitious and was going to try to punch through a hole in the storm and land. And the plane got so turbulent that the overhead bins opened and all the luggage dumped out into the aisle. That's a scary flight. And when they first started to have the turbulence, I know I felt this terrible for me, I feel like in any way, they had the first head of the turbulence, the guy next to me goes, I'm a businessman, I travel, traveling salesman, I fly every single day of the week, this kind of thing happens all the time.

Literally five minutes later, he has pictures of his kids out on the tray and he's saying goodbye to them. So from that moment on, she did not ever want to set foot on a plane. I love that. Do you think he was fucking with her? Do you think that was like just being with you? Because he sounded like a bad flight. She said the flight attendants were crying. Like they were trying to keep the passengers calm.

And they were on the beach. Yeah, they were just like, they were like, they're like, they go up, they go up. Did they ask people to brace? Because they're like, I don't think they ever, I don't think they ever went to the brace. They just started a fight club. Why not?

I'm gonna start doing that on planes now. I'm gonna bring pictures of like other people's kids. I just like have them with me. And things start getting rocky. That's a great way to get arrested. I'm saying goodbye to someone else's kids. Oh, here, let me read this thing right here. What I'm mind of when this episode of ReCEIVE Podcast is brought to you by Casper.

It was like the teacher moment when you haven't been playing your kitchen during class, playing the pumpkin. Yeah, Casper. Yeah. Hey, guys, did you see the video that somebody tweeted at us of?

I'm not sure if it was the Casper factory, but it was some factory where they compress mattresses down to where they can ship them, like Casper does. I saw that. Watch that, they do walking fascinating. We've always talked about the opposite, like when you get a Casper and you open it and how the thing just like breathes, breathes,

and inflates. Is it one of those, what's the, I shouldn't say inflates, that makes it sound like an air mattress. I don't know. It expands. It expands, yeah. What's in here? What was a hydraulic press? I should just use that like an air mattress. I don't know. It expands. It expands, yeah. It sucks in air. What's the most?

What is a hydraulic press? I should just use that on an entire mattress. Is that channel still going? I don't think so. I like that guy's accent. I know that much. Icelandic, right? Yeah.

We are going to be like, not even close. Not even. I tried. I'm glad we finally put out that, uh, Call of Duty Let's Play we did with your, uh, Bingraimes impression. My 100% accurate Bingraames impression not a little racist dude

I went to black pants with the other night and I could not breathe during that mission impossible trailer I feel like you were gonna make an association with never mind Yeah, Bing rames is back in mission possible, and I'm super fucking psyched is he yeah, he didn't die I don't keep up with those movies. That kind of blended together. Was he gone? Yeah. Was he in the last one? He was in the last one, or what? Yeah.

OK. Well, what do you mean? I was like, your favorite thing, Rames, is Tom Cruise is back in the mission and possible movies. They always, he skipped a couple, didn't he? I don't know. All right, yeah.

But you think after all these movies, they'd realize the mission is in fact possible? I just wonder why they're still going at this point. But I don't know. They're enjoyable. I'm pretty psyched about it. Do you think that's the most well-known movie fact now or like behind the scene stuff is that Tom Cruise does all of his stunts

for mission impossible? I feel like that's a weird thing that he's begun promoting a lot more like in the last two or three years. But yeah, right, he didn't do it before, but then he got kind of known for it and people figured it out. And now I feel like he pimpsed that all the time. Right, and it's in all those movies,

like that was a big thing for the mummy as well. Yeah. Like about the stunt work and all of that. Turn out great, that movie is, hmm. Mm, hmm, superb. It wasn't good. You liked that or not like that? What? The Tom Cruise does his own stunts in movies. Yeah, I respect him more. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, what stunt coordinators and stunt teams are for. Like why wouldn't you let professionals who are used to doing that do their job?

It makes their life a lot easier because they don't have to like, work around it, not being him. Probably not because if he dies. Yeah, that's true. Well he broke his leg on this last one. He's an ankle. Yeah, you see that footage jumping between the buildings?

I feel like at this point he is doing it, like people are like, oh, Tom, you're gonna do this done. He's like, oh cool, cool, and he goes back to his trailers, like, fuck. I would imagine so. You buy that huge towel? His mom is just in his trailer. It's like, okay, honey.

Let me put her on your boo-boo. I don't wanna do it. But if you lost, I mean, these people were out of work for like seven or eight weeks. Because he broke his feet. Yeah, because he broke his, I mean, they're not gonna go on the movie without his, without their star with the broken ankle.

Sorry. And you're hero, Mr. movie without their star with the broken ankle. Sorry. And you're hero, Mr. Hans Solo. That was an old man injury, that was kind of sad. What, here's some for her. Yeah, he broke his leg on the Millennium Falcon. Yeah. They shut a door on his leg and it's snapped. Of course.

Yeah. Well, it's a spaceship, they're very robust. Are you excited about the Solo movie? I sure am. Yeah. I mean, I know it's got a lot of behind the season nightmare shit going on, but like. I think you're the only other person I've met who's excited about the solo movie? I sure am. Yeah? I know it's got a lot of behind the season nightmare shit going on, but like. I think you're the only other person I've

met who's excited about it. Yeah. I mean, it's Star Wars. They could say like, we're going to do 90 seconds of Greedo breathing. And I'd be like, oh yeah, I'm sure. But yeah, no, no, no. I mean, like Ron Howard's like super cool.

And I don't know. I like Alden, Airela, but I can't know. I like Alvin Nair, but I like, I can't even remember at this point. Who is the director that they fired from at previous? It was Miller and Lord, right? Yeah, like a bad guy. I'm still waiting for the General Grievous movie. Wait, wait.

The what? General Grievous. You want a General stop? Just a whole movie about General Grievous. What would that sound like, Barb? I find addition to my collection He's got a very interesting background story, so all right. Well don't get offended about Listen if you you can't make fun of my plain knowledge if you have that much Star Wars knowledge Okay, that's true. Just be like me and have no knowledge about anything

That's a that's a great That's a great aspirational goal for people. Just be dumb. I can't wait to see that. Put it created like a no motivational poster. You with that quote. Just be like me. So you're not excited about it. No, I am excited about it.

Oh, you are. Yeah. I said he's the only other person I've seen so far. Okay. That is excited about it as well. They're talking about somebody else was excited about it. No, I'm excited. No, no, me.

I'm excited. It'd be great. I'm like you, I like Star Wars. I called out Andy somebody else was excited about it. No, I'm excited. No, no, me. I'm excited. It'd be great. I'm like you, I like Star Wars. I called out Andy because he was like, you know, they're just making too many now. And it's like, dude, you were back in like late 90s, early 2000s when they were like, all right, Revenge of the Sith, this last one, you know,

you would be like loving this right now. This like period of time where they're coming out with the Star Wars every year, like, it's fucking great. First of all, fuck you. Return of the Jedi was in 1982. Was it revisions? We had to wait 17 years to see that piece of shit, phantom menace.

You've had to go, like, what? 15 minutes between movies at this point. And you have like video games and TV shows and everything else. We had nothing. Wasn't there a documentary done about the Phantom Menace of people who've been Star Wars fans for so many years and they went to go see the movie when it came out?

Thank you. And they interviewed them after seeing the movie. And they're just like, yeah. Boom. I guess I'll see it again. Yeah. Because maybe I was missing something. Like they were just like at a loss for words.

Did you camp out? I camped out. Because it was before you could buy tickets online. So how long did you camp out for? Like two days. How long were we out there, Jeff? Was it 48 hours? Yeah. Is that the one where you, your butthole pro laps or whatever?

No, that's what he was playing video game. What? No, my butthole. I don't know what that story is. That four stories mixed up. You got a hemorrhoid by sitting on a concrete floor. No, that was not there. That was not there.

What was that? You know the full story. What was he doing? He sitting on a concrete floor. Oh, that was not there. That was not there. What was that? You know the full story. What was he doing? He was playing a video game. Rainbow Six. That's right. That's a good game. I've pro-lapseed my asshole for Rainbow Six.

It was a hemorrhoid. Let's get it right. I happened again. I was playing Shadow Run Dragonfall. And I gave myself a hemorrhoid game. As your ass pro-lapse. What do you mean to happen again? You're sitting on a concrete floor again?

Yeah. When? Did it happen? You're sitting on a concrete floor again? Yeah. Win! Did it happen? You were like, like a year ago? Why did you talk about that? I did, not again. I talked about it on the patch, I think, at the time. But that's what finally coming through to buy a computer desk.

I didn't own a computer desk before that, so I finally... What? Last year you didn't own a computer desk? No. You just on the floor? Yeah. What? What? What are you?

Gus, you're a weirdo. OK, you noticed that? That news to you. Is your monitor and everything just sitting on the floor? It was, I would play on a gaming laptop. So I would put it like on a coffee table, and I would sit at the coffee table and play. And then when I wasn't playing, I just

pack it up and put it like in a closet. All right. That's all right. That's a little bit better. One of your postures was all like, no, my posture was already like that. And the gaming laptop just helps with that. Did you get one of those round pillows, like at the hole in the middle for the office? So in that jack brought in your plane. Someone gave me one of those. Jack Oh, Jack brought a hand-moiled pillow in the airplane.

He brought like some sort of like round butt pillow to sit on the airplane. Sure was one of those neck things? Nope, it was for his butt. Get a tender butt. What did you get until the rest of the story? Apparently, apparently it's good for your spine. I don't know if you guys know about this. It's like something you could, yeah, you could sit on it.

And it helps your spine sit properly on a long flight. So it's not like a donut pillow or anything like that. It's like a little wedge. Yeah. Or a lumbar support? Anybody else have Jack Matillo's RT store lumbar support? Anybody about that one? Oh, turn off your phone.

I expected Gus to have you thrown out. I looked. You looked. You can find him. It's over there somewhere. Did you see that George R. Martin said that Winds of Winner is not coming out this year? Why is he bother announcing that shit at this point? I mean, really?

But did you hear his rationale? No. This made me really mad. He's working on a Targaryen storyline that's going to span two books, and the first of those two books is going to come out before Winds of Winner, maybe this year, and then Winds of Winner will come out, and then he'll do the second Targaryen story, and then he'll continue with...

But he's gonna be dead before any time happens, right? I mean, he would be whove him to stretch out the series for as long as possible, because he's just gonna keep making that money, right? People might not care once after the show wraps. Yeah. I would argue they don't care now. Well, no, because they're gonna make the...

I care, like, I still... There's still stories in there that I'm invested in. Like, the books are pretty different, you know that. They're pretty different, but I think for most people at this point, now that the shows have passed the stories in the books, they're just not going to be interested in the books when they come out. Yeah, it could be. Am I crazy for, like, not...

Oh, is this... Spoils? Should I get in spoiler? On Game of Thrones? Yeah, I think so. No, for it, for it. Okay, is it... Am I, like, crazy for, like like thinking that it's okay that they're Boning in their cousins like

I am all for it like I mean, you know that's in the first episode of the show They're not cousins And And if you dude that's what I said so I said Bernie does a second bar you said in chest and Barbara pointed at me side bar real quick Oh, that's cool. Okay. I Didn't even explain. I thought you can tell the other story. Oh That one There's no incest story you fucking freaks. Yeah Although we when we were at planet comic con everyone thought or a few people thought my colonzy were brother and sister

They went well in Texas so a few people thought Michael and Lindsay were brother and sister. And they went, well, it's Texas, so. Why is, why is incest porn so popular? Is it? Thank you. It's like always, like, like, if you go to a porn hub and you look like at top searches, it's always like stepmom or step sister. Step brother, yeah, step brother. Yeah, oh my god. Probably a lot of people. Go on the top searches. It's always like stepmom or step sister. Yeah, step brother. Yeah, yeah, oh my god.

Probably a lot of them. Going to top searches. It's on the front page. You have to look at it. It's like right there next to a girl with a dick in her mouth. They're popular for a reason. But yeah, anytime I'm seeing that, it could be like the two hottest people ever.

And it'll be like stepbrother. And be like, oh, well, that's okay. And then they always have a storyline involved where they're just like, oh, mom's going to be so mad at me. And he was like, oh, slide pass. Why did you even click on it in the first place? That's not interesting. It's popular.

It's right there at the top. No, but it was, what I was going to say is I go to your house every week to watch Game of Thrones burning. Right. But what I was gonna say is I go to your house every week to watch Game of Thrones burning right and every single week leading up to Daenerys and John screw in I was like cheering for it in the background I'm just like I don't know if you heard me, but I was in the back of your room going And I think it was Ashley who was like, you know they're Ant and Neff you, right? And I'm like, how dare you just fuck her?

Are we happy? I'm like the creepy guy in the back of a theater, like Master Bating. Well, we do have that tradition at Game of Thrones Night 2, where when the slate comes up before the show starts, and it says like this contains violence, profanity, adult situation, and then if it's nudity, everybody cheers.

Yeah. But if there's no nudity, then we also realize someone's probably gonna get killed in that episode. Yeah, it's the usually one or the other. The wild card is brief nudity. That's the one. And I was like, oh, that could be dumb. I'm gonna lose.

I was watching. Have you watched that HBO show crashing with Pete Holmes? No, the Pete Holmes as a show on what? Yeah, on HBO. I've been watching, I just started watching it the other day. I was watching season one. And on the first episode, they missed brief nudity in those cards.

The warning comes up, like adult content, adult language. I got right, whatever. Start watching it. And in the first two minutes missed brief nudity in those cards. Like the warning comes up, like adult content, adult language. Like, all right, whatever. Start watching it, and like in the first two minutes, brief nudity, whoa, that wasn't prepared for that. Like it was weird, because normally on an HBO show, you like, I know what I'm getting into here. It's like, whoa, okay, that was unexpected. I've had a nice surprise.

Yeah, it's like, okay. I would tell you about the first time that you invited me over for Game of Thrones, and I think Barbara, you were there, probably. So Bernie invites me over. And this is like when I was like either late in turn or early, you know, first employee or whatever. And you're like, hey, come on over.

We're doing Game of Thrones. I don't know if you watched the show, but yeah, come on over. And I was like, oh, fuck yeah. I've heard about this on the podcast for so long. Yes, I'm ready to go. I'm ready to go. I get all dressed up and ready to go. And I get there and you're like, hey, we're going to do

this cooking thing. And you hand me a camera. And I was like, okay. And then you had to be filmed everything. And I was like, huh, not really participating, but also there. You made me fix your cable box as well while I was there. Like, blindness isn't working.

Can you go look at the wires with miles? And you mean miles were like, hmm. Well, all of us enjoy all the food in the backyard. I'm just back there, like, oh, I can figure it out the cable. No, hold of us enjoy all the food and the backyard. I'm just back there, like, oh, my goodness, I'm figuring out the table. No, hold the antenna like this. That reminds me, my sprinkler's not working. Do you want to watch altered carbon this weekend?

I'm gonna see. You see that? You have such show. Dude, I've seen all of altered carbon. Is it good? Hers bad. Okay, divisive. I've heard both.

It's divisive. Divisive, is it? Many people like it. Yeah, divisive. Many've heard both. It's divisive. Divisive, isn't it? Many people like it. Many people do not like it. And we talked about it when you were out, and I think you were out as well for the Ashley podcast. We go on the podcast with Ashley just recently. I was on the pancake podcast.

The pancake podcast, that was especially your right. There's pancake podcast. We talked about it on there. We talked about that show is, literally the casting process must be, hey, you're perfect for this part. We wanna cast you in the show. By the way, you have to be completely naked for about 25% of your time.

But giant is too? It literally, it's every single part. That's like Westworld. Yeah, I guess so. I could describe Tandy Newton's nipples. No problem now. Damn. Go for now. Damn. Go for it.

Well, now I want to watch the show. What's that? You don't want to watch it? I said I do. Yeah, you do. Yeah, you do. And everybody's like, super fit. I'm all through all my incest porn,

so it's time to start some new stuff. Has there been a Rex on a Rex Weiner on, is that, or is that not allowed? Is that X-rated? What are you looking for here? What do you want? It's not what I'm just curious. Bernie.

What's straight to it, Blaine? Show it. Is that the line you cross? Like the erect penis, that's like, I think it changes the rating. There's, you get dude butt. The dude butt to boob ratios. That's okay.

The boob to dong ratio is severely skewed towards boobs. Not enough dong. Yeah, not enough dong. And listen, Ashley gets mad. She likes, you know, waiting for the lead character to show his dong spoiler, he doesn't show his dong. But he's really, what's world, Westworld's got plenty of dong.

Yeah, they're sitting too. Cause like, I was imagining like the guy that plays psych, Hopsy still looks ripped when he's sitting, but I know for a fact he's like, mm-hmm, like flexing his ass off because like everybody looks kind of shitty whenever they're sitting down, you know? But yeah, okay, what's the world?

How does your reflexing right now? No. So it must be nerve-wracking. It must be a nerve-wracking being naked on camera like that. And so like, how does your dick just not shrivel into itself out of fear? I've seen that happen in real life. No, I actually, yeah.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Min's locker room during football, all the guys are in there, like, dong out and stuff like that. And I've seen a dude just be in the corner. What's he doing with? Oh, and he'll just, his wiener's just like, it's like flat.

It's flush. It's like it tucked in like turtle. Like two dimensional? Like two dimensional? Little sheep of water reference there. So, Bar, it's kind of a window of opportunity there. You don't want to be too erect on camera because then they got to clear the set. But you also don't want to be all shriveled up either.

Yeah. But how do you get that middle? You take like quarter of an agra. It was like just a little bit. Do you just get someone to come and go It's like breathe on it warming up would be well for blame. We just have a step sister stand right We but I think there's got there's got to be I just talk in here. There's a There's got to be a shoving procedure, right, Blaine?

Like, right, you go to your trailer, you say, call me as soon as you need me. Right, yeah. And like you do with Isokator reveals some of your stuff that you go through, go on. If Blaine is ever shirtless on camera, he wants to look his best. So he actually works out on set.

That's called the pump. You're getting the pump, right? You think concept. You just got to like, you got to shove up. See I would think that you should already be on set because they're, sprees right past that. There are times when like you're on set and they're like, all right we're ready for you, you step in and then it's still 10, 15 minutes before they're ready to roll.

So it's like, it's someone there with the perfect amount of chub and they're just like, all right, so we're just going to need to adjust that light. And they're like, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, then you just wag your hips back and forth. You get a little like, you just slap it around a little bit.

I feel like you would have to masturbate right before going on to set, because I feel like that's optimal long, flaccid time. You like right after post? Yeah, it's like post orgasm erection. You're risking a drip? Yeah. What?

You're risking a drip? What does that mean? What is he saying? You're risking a drip. You're risking, oh, oh, yeah. Are we talking pre-com? No, he's in post. This would be post-com. It's just come at that point.

I'm in post-com. Or it's pre-com for the next time. Just super-pre. Super-pre. Yeah, I would not do that. I would not do that. Because then you're working on a limited time window. OK, yeah.

Well, I still feel like it's like an hour after. It's still looking pretty good. An hour, I don't know. How old are you again? Wait, no. That's totally ranges. Because I had one the other day, I was like, I'm ready to go again. No, no. And then there's some where I'm just like,

I'm going to take a nap. We haven't talked about your refractory period. Go ahead. No, we actually have talked about that in the podcast before. This is eight years. Oh, no, no. Oh, no.

That was the worst timing. You fucking zing me and Patrick sent me a confusing slack, because I was distracted. Yeah, Patrick, I know I was the pancake podcast. Oh, you did. Yeah, we haven't talked about Cloverfield Paradox. I haven't seen it. You haven't seen it, really.

What is that? What they released it after? After the Super Bowl. It was like the new Closter movie. I was in New Zealand. I fucking watched it that night. I was not playing that coming back. Did you like it?

It was not the best Cloverfield movie, but I'm happy to see that they're making more and that they're taking risks. I think you're in the minority on that one. I was totally fine with it. I mean, if I had gone to a theater and watched it, I probably wouldn't be as happy, but the fact that it was on Netflix and I could just watch it,

totally fine. That's exactly my sentiment. Because the fact that it exists is the coolest shit ever. That they're like, hey, there's this movie out. Now, it's like, whoa, that's crazy. And I already have Netflix subscription, who cares? Yeah, but Netflix is still 10 bucks, or whatever it's all.

But I was already paying for it, I already had it. Yeah. Tell me the basic premise with those spoilers, because I haven't seen this. The basic premise is that they're trying to activate a super collider in space to create energy for the world. Sounds great so far.

They create a rift that moves them into another universe. Okay. And then just like the fallout from that. Yeah, it sounds like a like Cloverfield, 10 Cloverfield Lane meets Stranger Things, a little bit. Are there three Cloverfield movies? There are three now.

Yeah. Did you like life? Life. That was a switch of room movie. That reminded me that remember that movie was Steven Seagull executive decision where he's on all the posters and he's in all the commercials, and he fucking died four minutes into the movie.

It was like the biggest switcheroo ever, or they call it stunt casting, or whatever, and he died. Yeah. But I won't give too much about life, but there was people that I went to go see life for, and I kind of wish that I hadn't gone to see a movie. Well, the one person that you're probably thinking of had the most metal on-screen death in that movie, like he was like,

come on. Did you like it? I was okay. I'm full with it. It's a very different side. It's mis-marketed. Life was marketed as a sci-fi movie, and all the posters make it look like a sci-fi movie,

but it's a horror movie. Oh, absolutely. It's just straight up, it's almost like a slasher horror movie in a way. You know, but it's weird. Gus, I think you would like it if you haven't seen it. I might try. People keep talking about life recently for some reason.

I think it's because it's related to a close panel. Does it find a way? I didn't even hear her. Does it find a way? Oh, yeah, very good. The like... The like... The like...

The like... The like... The like... The like... The like... The like... The like... The like... So, more Jeff Goldblum just took a shit. But the thing about the most recent Cloverfield movie is I wonder if it was actually made for Netflix or if they're like, ooh, what is that on Netflix? You know, like, they also did a thing where they just dropped it and didn't say anything

about the movie before they put it out. They released like a 30 second teaser, I think, and that was it. Yeah. Like the commercial, that's where they announced it. But that's just, yeah, like that day. It was that, it was available right now, was the commercial, and they don't really do that with a lot of other stuff. But that's their thing, though, with Chlorophyll, it was like this weird marketing, because like,

10 Chlorophyll, it was three weeks in advance. I think I like a month. They released a trailer, and that's like, oh, it's coming out in a month. Right. That movie was fucking good. I love that movie. Really good. Is that the best one?

I think so. Absolutely. And then there's going to be another chlorophyll movie supposedly later this year that they really haven't said much. I think that one's set in World War II. Who's behind this franchise? I think it's just sci-fi scripts that Bad Robot picks up. It's like, oh, we can tack on the chlorophyfield connection. It's basically black mirror, but for features.

I mean, they're all loosely connected. This one has some connections. By the end of this one, he's like, oh, yeah, this is really loosely connected. You thought, did you think 10 Cloverfield Lane was connected to Cloverfield? This movie kind of draws that connection out. Oh, really? Yeah. They go to extra-dimensional stuff,

that's everything's alternate universe. Oh, really? Well, then everything's connected. Hey, can you get annoyed when people get all excited about finding out that something is in the same universe as something else? Like, sometimes. They can't annoy it.

I just, it's like, who cares? That happened to me with Black Mirror. Yeah. They released the Black Museum episode, and's like, who cares? That happened to me with Black Mirror. Yeah. When they released the Black Museum episode and they showed how all the episodes are connected in the same universe. Cool. Very great. Come on, it's been out for months.

It's been out for months. It's your fault. It doesn't, like, Black Mirror is still an awesome show. You know, even knowing that fact still makes it fun. And I don't like it because I feel like then now they've put themselves in a corner. Like before anything could happen, you know, nothing has to be connected necessarily. Yeah, there's no theme. Right, and now there's a corner. Like before anything could happen, you're, you know, nothing has to be connected necessarily. Yeah, there's no theme. Right, and now there's a timeline.

And now, yeah, if you sit down, I've seen articles that sit down and like try to place all of these episodes in order. And based on references that they all have to each other, it's like, I feel like it's just too confining. Yeah, somebody went through and showed how, it was a Reddit post, somebody showed how the good place, do you know that show the good place?

Heard about it. Yeah, Ted Danson, and is it Kristen Bell? Yeah. Yeah, they show how it's in the same universe as Parks and Rec, because of magazines and things like that, which are, they just use those props again and again, but they were trying to go through and prove how it's in the same universe. I just don't get, like, what do you get out of that? I think it's a cool little like trivia fact.

Like I know a lot of like Disney movies have a lot of tie-ins. They're all like that too. They're all like based on earth, so why don't you just assume they're all in there? I mean, same universe. I like, I just think there's a cool thing when there's a connecting thread somehow. I mean, I get it from Marvel movies and stuff like that, but trying to connect to completely unrelated movies and show how they, but trying to connect to completely unrelated movies and show how they're in the same universe.

I think it just kind of tickles the fans because it's like, oh, your commitment to the series pays off because you watch this other stuff. So now, I don't know. Like, these are just like a nice little thing you get. I get it. Yeah, I like Star Wars, where you don't try to figure that stuff out.

Like, it's a long time ago, there's people, there's talking aliens, eh, go for it. Like, I you don't try to figure that stuff out. Like, it's a long time ago, there's people, there's talking aliens, eh! Go for it. Like, I don't ever think to myself, oh, do these people evolve and become humans of today? Do you think about that? No, it's Star Wars. There you go, exactly right. He's so me, I'm wonky-trubaka.

What was your favorite part of the solo trailer? Solo trailer? Oh, whatever they call that thing. Probably... Actually, the end when he's like, everything's fine. We're fine. And then there's like a big alien. That was my favorite part. I thought it was pretty telling that most people seem to like the ship.

That's what most people connected. They saw the Millennium Falcon when it was apparently new. It's all shiny. I'm calling bullshit on that too. I don't know if it's the same ship, because it's like, I think, like, nine to 10 years difference since we've seen him in New Hope. And it looks like dog shit in New Hope.

It's like same ship, different day. Fuck. Ah. You see, if you boo during the bad ones, it'll raise the bar, because then she'll try harder. If you clap for all of them, you're just encouraging the worst. My example, though, is at the end of Revenge of the Sith,

you see the Tantiveev, and then you see that same ship at the beginning of a new hope and it's the one that Leia's escaping on. I think it's the Tantiveev. And it looks the exact fucking same. It's like porcelain, like white pristine. And then you see this one, it looks like it's just been through Hell and Back.

So maybe they explained it in the movie, but I don't know. I think it's weird. Who plays Han Solo again? Alden, I like, it's the guy that played Opie, or... Oh, Pee! No, no, no, no. I'm thinking of Ron. No, he played something in Hale Caesar, the cowboy guy,

whatever it is they might have. Okay, okay. Yeah, I know who you're talking about. Tantum, dude. Many landed. Han Solo. Are you mad? I'm having a souvenir dream roll. I'm upset for him because everyone's like,

oh, he's nothing like Han Solo. He's nothing like Harrison Ford. And sucks because it's like, who wouldn't want to be fucking Han Solo? Right, I would take that, and I would do a terrible job with it, but I'd still want to be Han Solo, and everyone's getting mad at him. It's like, dude, you know dude, he's gonna do his best.

I think people were shitting all over that movie before the trailer came out, like, and people, it seems like Star Wars fans want that film to fail for some reason. And I don't understand why. I feel like when people shit on things before they actually experience them, like I get being like, maybe having low expectations,

but being like, oh, this is a piece of shit, it's gonna suck. Welcome to Star Wars, general. And welcome to like media in general. But I don't know, there's nobody that hates the thing they love more than Star Wars fans. I mean, Star Wars fans hate all the movies when they come out and they're always bitching and complaining about them.

Yet, they'll wait for 48 hours to go see the next one every single time. I had, I mean that single time. I had, I'm in that group too. I had a ride share driver when I was in New Zealand who would not stop talking about the last Jedi and how much he hated it. And anything I had to say that was contrary to him, he just immediately shut me down.

Like, he told me how old he was, he was like 23, 24. And he said at one point he said something like, shut me down. Like, I want, he was, like, he told me how old he was. He was like 23, 24. And he said, at one point, he said something. Like, yeah, I guess I just realized, you know, Star Wars Zone by Disney now, that's a, this movie's aren't for my generation anymore. I was like, what the fuck are you saying, dude? And he's like, yeah, you know, now they introduce all these cute characters and animals and stuff.

And I was like, there were Ewoks in Return of the Jedi. And he just looks at me and he goes, no. No. And I said, but fake news. And I was like, there were Ewoks in return of the Jedi. And he just looks at me and he goes, no. No. And I said, but fake news. And I was like, there were Ewoks. They were like, cutly characters. He goes, no, no. I was like, what?

I don't know how to talk to you. I just stated a fact and you said, no. It was the most bizarre call. To go in and argue, man. And then when he said, no, he wouldn't break eye contact with me, and he was still driving. So we're going down the road, and he's like, no, there were no Ewoks. And I'm like, look where you're going.

No. I'm using the force. It was so bizarre. I just pretty upsetting to think that Ewoks were originally supposed to be wookies. Like that would be cool. That last fight, you know, yeah No one gives a shit I'm listening to you back. No, I'm on Twitter trying to look at the Rd podcast. Is your laptop dead? Where are we live? My laptop dies It's not my phone now. Yeah, we are live. Okay. While you look that up

and his Star Wars knowledge is when he gets something tremendously wrong. Like how'd your pronounce Yavin? On that one, No Read? Yavin? Yavin. And you never heard the end of it from the audience? So you just mentioned a ship.

And this is from Scott Augusta on Twitter. So Blaine just mentioned a ship called it the Tantivive, but it's the Tantiv 4 Roman numeral 4. OK, no, no, no. No. No. I swear to God, weren't you, you were there when I called it Tantiv 4 in front of fucking Pablo Hidalgo, the Star Wars like Cannon Master,

and he was like, it's Tantavive. Because I called it Tantafor. I'm not fucking crazy. You're probably fucking with it. I'm less time crazy in which case I'm so sorry. He probably corrected you the other way. Yeah, I was just saying it was like Tantavive. I think I said Tantafor.

And he was like, no, it's actually the Tantavive. Ha ha ha. All right. What is this shit? I mean, what is that shit? It's the one that you see. It's like the first thing you see after the credits roll and the first thing, you know, it's a-

What movie, dude? The new hope. I knew hope. It's the one layer of thought. It's the latest ship. Okay, the Indaro one, it's the one that busts out. What do you call that ship? I thought it was a Curly and Corvette.

I always call it the blockade runner. And I'm looking here. So that specific ship is a Tantip IV. It was a CR90 Corvette. I always call it the blockade runner. And I'm looking here. So that specific ship is a Tantive 4. It was a CR90 Corvette. Tantive 4. In the service of Howe for God. Tantive 4. Tantive 4.

Pronounced Tantive. Pronounced V. Tantive. I don't know how do you read that. I select the phonetic pronunciation. Pronounced. All right. Tantive.

No one can I tell no one can go that. I like you all so much. I'll go fuck myself, thank you. So, I don't think I've ever seen a quieter room. Just like CR90 Corvettes are also known as Alder on Cruisers, Curly in Corvettes or Blockade Runners. Blockade Runners, that's how I do it. Yeah. So since I got on Twitter, I'm reminded of something I saw in my direct messages. We had a gentleman, correct me if I am pronouncing

his name wrong, Brian Komozzi, the UFC fighter, came by and sat with you guys on the off topic. You got to thumbs up over there. And then punch, blame in the stomach, and kick you in the shin, that was dangerous and shit by the way. Kick to me twice here, and then punched me twice here. Then Trevor punched me, so. How that relate.

I mean, you know, you don't get tickled sometimes, and it's like, no. I'm just kidding, Trevor. He's a good punch, he was a good punch. So I had a thing where he was, I guess he was on the subreddit, but then he reached out to me. He reached out to me on Wednesday of this week and said, hey, Bernie, I'm a big fan, would you follow me?

I need to DM you something. And I saw this guy and saw as a UFC fighter. You know, you could DM someone who follows you. Your DMs have to be open, though. No, I think if you follow someone, that person could DM you without you following. Well, we learned a little something about Twitter today. Can I finish my story? I missed that insult, but everyone went, oh, so I assume it was bad. No, it was OK.

What did you say to me? I said, you're great, and pretty. So he wrote me and said, will you follow me so that I can DM you? And I was like, oh, this guy's a U.S.C. fighter. I'm trying to curious what he has to say. So I said, sure. Later that night, I followed him And I was like, oh, this guy's a UFC fighter. I'm kind of curious what he has to say. So I said, sure. Later that night, I followed him. I said, what's up?

And he wrote, hey, Bernie, I appreciate it. My name is Brian. I'm going to be fighting the UFC event in Austin on Sunday. I've been a big fan of the podcast and achievement hunter. And I have an extra two tickets to the event if you would, or any other one of the company would like them. I said, that would be great. Thank you so much for thinking of us.

That's it. I messaged him like three more times after that and he never messaged me back. Came to the office visited. Jeff, did you get tickets to the fight? Ezra? This motherfucker dude, Tyler! Tyler, Tyler, Tyler, get tickets? Tyler, Tyler, Tyler, get tickets? Great seat. Hey, great seat. That was really suck when someone doesn't message you back, right? The difference is Gus, I've never offered you anything, ever. I was trying to confirm if Bernie was going to be here tonight, because I wasn't sure. And I messaged him on last, what is that Wednesday?

Are you still doing the live week podcast on 219 or you out? Nothing. Does he still have Red receipt reading? Nothing. It says delivered, it doesn't say red. I think he's up, I think he's up, I think I've got the three receipts. So how was the show?

Way down to find you guys, I don't know where you are. So here's a bar, but you'll see this. I've not taken part in this online dating culture, but this is being ghosted, right? Look what I finally did. So here's a bar, but you'll see this. I've not taken part in this online dating culture, but this is being ghosted, right? Look what I finally did. I messaged him on Sunday after not being responded to. There's my Twitter there.

Do you have C-guys? Yeah, you have C-guys. So watch what you say about this guy. He's going to come back and punch me again. Oh, he lost in the first round. Fuck him. Oh, no. What's up?

There we go. I like you, Brian. You're a fun guy. He left town, right? He left town? He's actually right there. Throw me at him. So I wrote on the day. You wrote on the day, right? I wrote that there.

Finally trying to get him to finally answer me back. This is Sunday at 7.14 pm. Yeah, so I wrote him on a Sunday. What time was the fight? That's a little desperate. That's Saturday. Saturday. Saturday.

Oh, Saturday. It was on Sunday. What time is the bout? Anyway, he wrote back to me, that's Saturday. Saturday. Oh, sorry. It was a fight was on Sunday. What time is the bout? Anyway, he wrote back to me, finally. Yesterday at 11.40 AM. Yeah.

I should fight around seven to night on Fox Sports 1. Watch it on TV, dude. That's what he told me. That was his response. That's it. Here we go. Unfollow. Hey. Jeez. response after though here we go unfollow that puts us on the same I think relative scale like the man scale I'm like now even with him right that makes me

as stuff as he is you have a lot of defenders online blame Tantiviv that it's Tantivv4. Tantivv4. Pablo Hidalgo has said on an official Star Wars material that it is pronounced Tantivv4, according to at Ryan underscore frees on Twitter. So I fucked it up, but I kind of got it right and my fuck up though is what you're saying.

Right, it's Tantivv4. Yeah, that's what I said. That's what I said, guys. I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm what I said. That's what I said, guys. Play the tapes. I've never turned around and shook a person's hand and been so happy to have interacted them than I was with Brian after he punched me.

It was like, that was the weirdest experience because he was so nice and he just beat the shit out of me. And it was like, He does. He's a really nice guy. He just punches people, that's all. Yeah. So he does for a living.

Well, like whenever he came in, apparently, I got like, you think you could do that? What? You think you could train and be a UFC fighter? After doing it, I- After you're gonna start taking a punch? Yeah, after taking it. Yeah, after having lived in the UFC.

No, after I've taken the punch, I was like, it kind of knocked the air out of me a little bit, but like, I was just opened up for it and stuff, and I was like, that wasn't so bad. I absolutely could not. My bones are made of glass, and my skin is paper thin. It didn't bruise. I think you'd be great.

I'd be scrappy. I would see you in a lease. That would be amazing. Me in a lease? Yeah. That'd be pretty fun. Can we arrange that? She's going to be here tomorrow for always open, if any of you guys are coming to this.

So all we need is a fucking octagon. Let's do it. Get Bethany on that. It just be us, like hitting each other going, oh, sorry. Sorry. Sorry, sorry. Oh my god. No, but seriously, I mean, I would never

do boxing or anything like that, because that's just like, it's just too pretty. I don't just do pretty, she's standing up and getting punched in the head But I feel like if you lost it you have see fight you'd be fucked up like you got after he punched you and kicked you twice You know you'd be in a lot worse shape, but you'd get better faster I feel like you have see fighters don't damage themselves long-term the way that boxers do Yeah, you don't think so

Really they get like brain damage and everything else? It's just Brian and the audience. I'm sure they get busted joints and stuff like that, but I feel like it doesn't short live. Although Kimbo Slice died at what, like, 43 or something like that? Need to the head. Need to the skull.

Well, then don't take a knee to the head. That's a really simple strategy. But can you take an arrow to the knee? No, do not applaud. No, no, no. You're not fucking applaud. Uh-huh. Mum and.

So all you need to get him. It wasn't a pun. It was just a really old joke. Right, what's the rating of like attractive sports? Like what? You're from Canada. Hockey? Hockey players, yeah.

And curling. Hockey? Minorly hockey. I don't know about curling because you guys ever watched a curling match. All you hear is like, hooray, hard, hard! Hey did I hear right, did was there a curler who got kicked out of the Olympics for doping? Yeah, I was looking for... What is he taking? Wait, where would you take to dope for curling, meth? Hm, yeah.

Bodka. Bodka. Oh, he's rocking before the match. Yeah. You think as they're blood. You honestly think that hockey is a sexy sport? Cause they got like Paul Flery or Missing T. She likes that.

Trevor, I'll take you out back. Just bust you up real good. Just bust you up real good. Yeah, that'll do it for me. I mean, any sport is attractive, I would say. I don't know about soccer. Maybe not soccer players because like, really? Well, those are the sexy dudes, David Beckham.

No, but like, think about like, like, play talk. What are sexy? Yeah, what is the list of the top five sexiest dudes in the play soccer? I mean, David Beckham's at the top, but I don't really know soccer all that much. I don't know sports.

I don't give a fuck about sports. I like playing them. I don't like watching them. It seems to counter intuitive. I guess it's like, I also measure like, attractive is somehow well they could take a hit and stuff like that. Really?

And like, yeah, rugby players and like, all that stuff is hot because like, if you think about soccer players, they don't even get hit and stuff like that. Really? And like, yeah, rugby players, and all that stuff is hot, because if you think about soccer players, they don't even get hit and they're on the floor like, Miami! Yeah! That's true. That voice exactly.

I'm gonna think about that every time I see one of those clips now. Miami! Oh, so I can just imagine Peter Hayes taking a clip from a soccer game and putting your voice over it. Please do that, Peter. I know you're watching.

So soccer's where, bottom. It's down there. Well, name some sports, then I'll rank them. Golf. Golf, that's not sports. Mm. I'll have you know on this the day of our presidents, Mr. Trump plays golf at least.

Mr. Trump. Christ, so weak. Oh, shit. We celebrate Trump on president's day now, don't we do we welcome to our world Past presidents Celebrate the God of this we'll celebrate the Rooster Teeth president Ezra or as I as I like to call up your majesty. Why, can we start calling him President Cooperstein

whenever I see him? Yeah! Mr. President, you're following me this way. I have a meeting with the president. I replied to one of his emails the other day with a bit moji. And after I said I was like, was that a little too sarcastic? Like did that come across? Is it like, you look at us?

I think it was like, awesome. Or something like that. Probably. I was like, I hope he doesn't think. I don't know, is Gus getting fired? Yes or no? Yes. Yeah.

Yeah. We heard what Miles did when Ezra first started working with us, right? Check ass. No. Miles got super drunk, I think, at a, was it a holiday party, Bethany? And he thought, he walked up to Ezra thinking

when Ezra had a beard, he thought he was talking to Will Hyde. Oh my God. So Miles walks up to Ezra, he's a very imposing figure. And Miles thinks he's joking with Will, goes, hey buddy, don't let you know you're doing a really shitty job, everybody here. Everybody here fucking hates you.

Wasn't also Miles who thought he was walking up to Jordan Swiers in spainting on the ass and it was actually Matt Hollum. What are you? What are you? How do you confuse those two? They were wearing the same suit jacket that night. This is the same party and it happened and he turned around and I was like, I'm fired. He was like, do it again.

Now you're fired for that joke. Do you smack to Matt on the ass at a holiday? Hard, yeah. I feel like Matt can take it better than Jordan. I didn't mean like you did on permanent damage. Jordan. Break Jordan in half. That's a good sport.

It was fun. We were just doing this thing. The 15th anniversary of Rucherti that's coming up this April 1st. And we've been doing a bunch of stuff in preparation for that. One of the things I just did today was recording a video piece where I was going through the different locations of Rucherti and talking about who got hired when and it's crazy going through, you know, starting at my spare bedroom,

my house, to then going to the downtown view to office, which we almost, we added Nathan, Zeldin. Anyway, she's movies coming out. Yeah, I saw that. In case of the Berlin Film Festival. It's got Robert Pattinson in it. I didn't know that.

Yeah, I can't wait to see it. I love all their movies. But Vampire? Woo! Yes. I can't remember the name of the movie now for some reason, I'm blanking on it. But, anyway, at the downtown beauty office,

we added Nathan, and then when we got to Congress, we added, like, right away, Monty and Brandon and Jack, and that a few other people, like, Miles was there as an intern. I think Chris and Marshall were there, kind of. Yeah, right towards the tail end, I think they were. And who? Carrie. Carrie was there, I think they were. And who? Kerry. Kerry was there as well.

Damsel. Damsel, that's what it's, thank you. And then when we got to 6 or 6, then it exploded. We had like Gavin Barbara, Michael Ray, Lindsay, I mean, just a ton of people all came through. Kara, Blaine, you started at that Ralph Oblinatal location. So it's fun to go through like all their four layers. And then it's crazy.

I think we've added even more people at stage 5, you know, which is or, you know, everything we have. Is it weird to call it stage five now? Should we come up with another name for it? I mean, that's pretty, I think. I like it. It sounds really cool. Does it?

Yes. What's our fifth place too? So it all kind of made sense. We're in stage five. I got fucking locked out of my office today. Well, good, because you have that stupid lock on it that I'm locked out of your office all. Well good, because you have that stupid lock on it, that I'm locked out of your office all the time. I send you the text.

I've texted you that code a million times. I know, but I don't read you. You don't read it. Yeah, you don't read my texts. They changed it. I was like, is this how they let me know? They changed it without telling you? Yeah, so today was a holiday, so it's like,

the facilities team wasn't there. I'm like, how do I get into my office? I stood in the hallway for a bit. I was like I guess I have to work from home. You have an intern now, how's that guy fairing? Oh by the way what's his name? We have this habit of Ramsey. We hire people at the company who have the same name as somebody else and he just hired the intern named Ramsey.

We don't have a first name Ramsey? No but we have Ramsey, intraname Ramsey. Well, we don't have a first name Ramsey. No, no, but we have a Ramsey. We have Jeff Ramsey. Oh. Did you not put that together until I set it out loud? I'm just kidding. Oh, he's right there. So I'm just...

Take this beer away from me. Patrick is telling me, Patrick's out is our telling me we have five Patrick's now. We have five Patrick's. There's two Patrick's here. I know of. He's a Patrick Rodriguez. That's it. Very good. I know of. There's a Patrick Rodriguez. That's it.

Very good. We're all four good. We have all those abstract names. No, I had a weird thing when they hired Brandon. I guess we had no other B names in the company. So every time someone said Brandon or Bernie, both of us would answer. And I don't know why.

Those two names sound nothing alike. That makes you both sound really stupid. A little bit, a little bit. Yeah, but also we have a show in development, and the name of the show is branded. Oh, Jesus, it's just like every time somebody says that I think they're talking about Brandon. I also have the problem, I'm kind of stupid though. I also have that problem when I go to a conference room and when the conference room's not in use,

it says free on it. And every time I think, ooh, Gavin's in there. I think I'm excited. I don't know why I get so excited if Gavin's nearby. But I get, ooh, and then I look in the window, I'm like, it's a conference room. It's just plain.

And there. Like tonight, yeah. Did you see that the state of Arizona is considering passing a law that would allow citizens to pay their taxes via Bitcoin? Why? Why? I mean, I get quite Bitcoin is attracted

from an investment standpoint. But the volatility of it at the moment. You would see it. Right, like if you're counting on that income as a government and then, you know, your income is reduced by 30% because of volatility, that's a severe budget gap. Yeah.

It seems absolutely ridiculous. So I guess like the measure passed the Arizona State Senate and now it's being debated in their house. You know what it is? I mean, Arizona doesn't have time zones and they didn't honor all the national holidays. Yeah, they don't have Martin Luther King Day, right? Yeah, Martin Luther King Day. It's like, now they're doing Bitcoin.

It's like they're skipping over. It's like they're playing civilization and they went way too far down one side of this guilt tree. And this is the only option they have now. Well, we'll do Bitcoin, and then we can get rockets. And then we'll do that. I can't believe how what a bad idea that seems like right now. It's been crazy volatile ever since it peaked when it would hit almost 20,000.

And then I saw it at 6,000 last week, and now it'd back up to to like 10 or 11 it's been all over the place. Do you have any Bitcoins? No, I have it any cryptos or anything at all I've got a little bit but not like a serious amount because I feel like I have like that kind of like you know The feeling left out kind of vibe where it's like oh should have gotten some but I feel that way now I keep hearing that's like the more it goes on like the more I should buy into it But I think that way now, I keep hearing that the more it goes on, like the more I should buy into it, but I don't know. What did you hear that thing about Coinbase? So Coinbase is this popular app that people can use to buy

cryptocurrencies. It hacks. And I know they had a malfunction the other day. And as a result of the malfunction, it started draining some people's bank accounts. And it was just like taking money out and transferring it out of their bank account. Holy shit. Now function. Yeah, I had it. That didn't sound like a malfunction. bank accounts and it was just like taking money out and transferring it out of their bank account.

Oh shit. Now function. Yeah, I had that insolent amount function. And well, function's name is Stephen. And so like they were like trying to figure out what was going on. They said it was a problem with their payment gateway that was just like taking money for some reason. So they were trying to like sort out how to get all of this money back to people. And I saw there was a thread on Reddit which got locked and hopefully reported to the FBI where someone was like, they're only going to give us our money back if we all get our guns and go to Coinbase headquarters right now. And it's like, what are you all doing? What is wrong with you people?

Like, even webbed there, man, I can say away from that stuff in general. And I certainly wouldn't use it as currency. That just doesn't make any sense to me, like for purchasing stuff. Although, I should say that, you know, Jess, right, my friend Jess from the Amazing Race, she started, which she started her own cryptocurrency. Wait, what? It's not Brittany, it's the other one, basically.

The not old and off, the other, okay, yeah. Yeah, she started a favorite team. She started a cryptocurrency for the cannabis industry, for the legal cannabis industry, because of all the benefits of blockchain and everything like that. She started, she's written up everywhere. So I think when there's a specialty purpose for it, it makes sense, but paying your taxes, uh-uh, no, but it seems like a bad idea.

I thought like the appeal of it was it was kind of like off the grid, like not government, you know, like involved, but now that they're receiving it for, you know, payments and stuff, does that, this is so bad. I can't use my fucking iPhone yet everywhere. And I'm gonna use Bitcoin, that makes no sense. We went to Australia just recently for Sydney, you could use this everywhere. I don't have to get cash, what do they call it?

Exchange, any more. No currency. Oh yeah, they have touch Apple Pay everywhere. I just use my phone on everything. By the way, this is the Apple portion of the podcast, if you keep you score at home. touch ID way better than Face ID. Touch ID is a thousand times better than Face ID. I don't know why they changed it. Look at this. It's got a plus for the Apple portion of the podcast. Who knew? I agree. I totally preferred touch ID. Touch ID sucked

at first. Then it got pretty good. What's going with Face ID? Well, here, let me give you an example. I don't have it. So when I go to pay for something, I hold my phone up to the thing. If I have touch ID, I go like that. Yep. Now I do this. Like that. And then it's also, if you're not looking at your phone,

or if you have sunglasses on. Or if you're talking to the cash register person. Or anything. It's like with the thumb, you just do it, and you're in, you're done. Yeah, this is like it's an effort now to do it I do like the function of like if you have a text pop up and then like if you look at the phone the text comes up on the screen That's pretty cool. That's pretty cool. It's seamless like 85% of the time also when you're in bed at night Or in the morning and the first thing you do I don't know about you but I grab my phone and I shouldn't but I, but I grabbed my phone and it doesn't recognize my face like, oh no,

no, no. It's like, go brush your teeth. Look at this. Then check Instagram. Brush your hair, you dirty shag. Since we're on the Apple portion of the podcast, did you see the video of the guy who was getting a replacement battery in his iPhone? And this was in China.

And he wanted to make sure the battery was authentic. So he bit it. Oh, what happened? It exploded. Oh. Is this jaw just like? He bites it. Did you see him take it out of his mouth

and throw it immediately and it just blows up. Fuck. Oh, it's like he met in his mouth. No, no, he pulls it out and then throws it and it just blows up. And there's like a woman walking by and it blows up right next to her. She just kind of looks back and just like keeps walking.

Is there a video of it? Oh yeah, there's there's video. I'm sure someone will find it here in a second. Sounds like a minor in California like biting the goal. Right. What are you testing? What are you doing? Yeah.

How do you know if you're right? You're biting a battery? What do you do that with? No, this is bad. No, this isn't a real battery. So was it blowing up? Was that good? That he had an original battery, but now it's destroyed.

Turned in, I was waiting for it. Oh my god. Oh, I gotta see that again. What a dummy. What, why? Fireworks. He literally just leans over and bites it. That blows up in his mouth.

He didn't throw that away, right? No, he threw it. That's why you're being- It looks like it starts in his mouth and You can throw that away, right? How do you throw it? That's why you're- It looks like it like starts in his mouth and then like throws it because of the reaction. I don't know. No, I'm not doing that. Yeah, so don't bite batteries.

Just so you know, all you guys, well, we're gonna raise awareness for this very important issue. We can't. Don't poach dolphins and don't bite batteries. Back all the lessons you learned from the RT podcast. Back when Periscope was like the hot shit, I remember John was staying over at my house

because he was, yeah, anyways. My phone had died, he was gone through divorce. My phone had died and I was like, well I'm gonna just fucking just destroy this thing. People are like, don't, it's gonna blow up. It's been John and I were like, let's go blow this thing up. So we went up to stage five in this empty parking lot

and then we just started stabbing at it and it just kind of shit on. How did I miss this happening? How you this bored? You have Netflix, we've already established that. You're in a parking lot stabbing your phone? Yeah, and it kind of just went like, you know, it's like, yeah.

Yeah, I should have bit it. It's the saliva that makes. Wasn't there a video of a kid who like microwaves one of those glow sticks and then takes it out and it like spews his face? I love that video, that is my good video. And then like he's like screaming something. I'm totally, he just loses his shit.

Okay, so like high pitched away. Doesn't like a parent come down and he's like, oh my god, what did you do? It's just the purest sound of parental disappointment you'll ever hear. He goes like, oh Jesus, Zach. Yeah. What did I tell you? Have you ever seen the video where the guy, you know what a soda stream is right? It's that little device we can carbonate water and you

can add like flavors to it and stuff. Oh yeah, soda stream, man. Yeah, soda stream. So there's this video where this guy is getting his son to carbonate red wine for him. And the son's like doing it and he's like, I don't think we should be doing this. And the dad's like, eh, go ahead, it's fine, don't worry about it. And it fucking blows up. And red wine shoots everywhere in the kitchen. And it covers everything. And the kids like, I told you, the dad's just like laughing hysterically.

It's a very different parent. Yeah. And two different stories. I love the extreme. I had a great parenting moment this weekend. It was Saturday, and I said to the kids, I don't know how I found this out, that the rodeo is going on right now in San Antonio.

So I said to the kids, yeah, shout out to the rodeo. But yeah. So then I said to the kids, I go, do you want to go to the rodeo? And they're like, and I was like, come on, it's a rodeo, it'll be fine. I'm like, yeah, they got all excited about it. Then I go to buy tickets online.

Gus, it was the most convoluted process ever to get these rodeo tickets. I bought them and then to try to print them, it was a four-step process, whether they mail a PDF to you. Or what? Yeah, it was like, you had to go through all these things, like you had to generate the bar codes for the tickets to then, that would make it a PDF.

And if this is your second time, you need a different barcode. If you've lost your tickets, so that we'll have the new barcodes and generate new PDF, I was like, holy cow, had to answer this questionnaire and everything, printed them out. My solution to all of this was, I just convinced my kids they didn't want to go to the rodeo. I was just saying, you know what the rodeo kind of sucks? And they're like, yeah. So we didn't go. Pretty long process to punish your kids.

I'm okay. Do any of you go to UT? Yeah. I'm here. Like, I know you went. Hook him. So I went to the La Nadeau Ray concert that was at the Frank Irwin Center here. Which apparently is like a UT building.

That is the, where they play the basketball. Okay. I graduated there. Gotcha. They call it the drum. So they have a new thing called the Clear Bag Policy for Girls. You can't bring in a purse that's bigger than like literally like maybe two inches by four inches. And that me and Miko went to the concert. We didn't know this because you don't go to UT. So we had like our normal like little purses with us. They wouldn't let

us in. And they said we have a clear bag bag policy so what you do is you dump all the contents of your purse into this clear plastic bag and then you go check your purse in the lockers that are like offsite somewhere. What the fuck? Like that is so much work. I don't want to go check my bag in. It was also like a truck with a wagon attached to it that had lockers in it. So it's gonna pull away with it. I was gonna say this thing is gonna drive away the second we put our bags in there. But I don't understand why they just couldn't like,

dump the stuff into the plastic bag, check the empty purse, look at it, be like cool, you're good to go. Why don't they just don't bring anything? They want to just tell you that on the tickets. I don't know. I wish they did. I would tell people that told them

don't bring their phones either, because I'm sick of phone. I mean, you need your phone to not be bored, you know? Well, I how to answer you on a film. Yeah. Well, what do you really though? I'll tell you how often do you go back and watch those videos? Well now that you have to worry about that for you Well, I fucking hate when you're on like Instagram and you're like, oh, yeah, this person's eating pizza. Oh, they're watching the movie It's like a fucking concert is blowing out your phone. You're like oh God. No, I absolutely hate all social media videos of concerts. I unfollow Bethany on Snapchat, whenever I know

she's going to a music festival. She doesn't even say that. Because it's just like non-stop, I don't want to see this concert. I don't care about this. She started giving me heads up when I unfollow her. She would text you. Yeah, I'm like, hey, I'm going to a concert.

Yeah, I know you want to unfollow me. Okay, thanks. I appreciate it. Oh, is that the guy carbonating the wine? Oh, this is great. Oh, oh. Oh, man. It's explicitly never in over and over on that soda stream

do not carbonate anything other than water. Yeah. There must be a way to do without that happening, because I feel like I pull mine off on a regular basis and spray everywhere. I mean, yeah, they tell you not to do it. Why not do it? Why get a machine when you could just buy the Coca-Cola though, right? Like, well that's the point. You make it on your own. Why? I think I'm trying to be either a frugal or be environmentally friendly. I have one and I use it to make soda, so I don't have to buy a mixer.

But just get topochico. But, let's say. And you have to buy topochico. It's less wasteful, too, because you're reusing the canister. Let's be honest, I don't care about waste. I know you don't. I just don't want to run out. It's like I can make it, I can make a ton of it.

Okay, that makes sense. Austin water's shitty, though. Did you ever get that red build up in the bath tub? I'm filtered in my fridge. Okay, never mind. Yeah, describe the grime in your bathtub because I think I have the same thing. So there's a ring of red rusty kind of shit.

What the fuck is that? I don't know, I'm drinking that in my hair in it. Every place I've ever lived in Austin, in the bathtub or in the shower, it always gets that orange. Yeah. Will do we moldy shit or whatever the fuck it is? Barbara?

Any idea what this is? No, I thought you were calling the moldy shit me. No. You guys, you guys, you're, I don't know. You guys, you guys, you have this orange shit. Yeah. What's wrong with all of you people? It's better places.

That doesn't make us wrong that you're all gross. That's one of the reasons I bought that filter for my shower head that I talked about that Gavin made fun of me endlessly for. That's a pretty dumb thing. Britta filter? It's a colgian filter. What's that? It's a colgian filter.

Oh. And it has what? It has an iron? I don't know what the fuck it has. It has a filter in it. It's an activated charcoal or whatever the fuck you put in a filter. What is what? Is it iron? I don't know what the fuck it is. Filter in it. Activated charcoal or whatever the fuck you put in the filter. What is this? Yeah, it's iron content.

Hi calcium. It's great. It sounds very nutritious to me. Yeah, delicious. All your iron and calcium. At least it's not flour to water. Anytime I go to Orlando, I swear the water fucking stinks in Orlando. I was at a convention in Omaha, Nebraska,

and the people who were running the convention, they say, hey, just so you know, we recommend you don't drink the water in the hotel. Wow. Like it was that bad. It came out kind of brown. Ooh. Yum.

Chocolate. She carbonate that. You're gonna have it. But you're okay to bathe in it. Yeah, that's also what I was like. I could wash my entire body on this, but just not drink it. Just close your eyes and your mouth when you're bathing.

You'll be fine. I always do anyways. Do you really? No. Just keep your eyes shut. I like to look for my shampoo with my eyes closed. What's the most toxic shit you've ever been exposed to? Because like, this podcast.

Hey, like, my dad and I installed, whoo! My dad and I installed granite countertops in one of our bathrooms. And apparently granite, like, since it's so far down in the earth's surface or something, like there's some sort of fear of radiation or something. And sometimes granite is like radiated.

And I took a chunk of the grant to my science teacher at the time when I was going to college, and he like did like one of those, you know, radiation swab things, Geiger counter, and it went like, and he was like, yeah, you're gonna get, your balls are gonna fall off. He's smugging with you. He was not, he like showed, like,

I had the chunk of granted and he's like, so like every time I went to brush my teeth I was like coming with balls. And I told my dad he was like, yeah, those were like thousand dollar countertops. I'm not gonna, sorry. So yeah. What was this never heard of that happening before? What was the stuff that gots, they could date based on the radiation from the nuclear bombs that have gone off in the world and testing paint? Yeah, they were something that they could test the age of it, just the amount of radiation in it.

I think they do that for art forgery to tell if, that's what it was, a piece of art. There's a location that we filmed at a couple times for immersion and also for blood fest. Oh man. They're chaining down. The hospital? Yeah, it's like the state hospital.

I don't know if it's a hospital or like that place. That place. It's a location that's like very old and it's covered in this vestus and like the paint is peeling from the wall. If you watch the fallout immersion, it's where they have the toilet. It's where, yeah, I'm in the bathroom. Yeah. It's where we do the whole intro and everything.

That was a perfect location. Oh, yeah. You didn't need to have any set dressing for it. It was perfect. But we filmed a whole day of blood fest there. And I remember the crew, the whole time had face masks on, but the cast didn't. So we're just like sitting there in the asbestos,

because they didn't want to ruin our makeup and stuff like that. So I'm probably going to die soon. Probably. Well, you know, the other place where we shoot a lot of stuff is right next to our office. It's the Armory, the old National Guard Armory. Yeah, which is a haunted, absolutely haunted. And 100% has as best to send it, lead paint, everything else.

There was a time, Blaine was co-directing 11 Little Roosters. And we were in one of these rooms where this facility is not public, but it's super easy to get into and it's abandoned and you occasionally have to like clear out like bedding and clothes. Oh, I know, you're talking about that. Yeah, and then Blaine found in this one of these empty rooms, they look like old abandoned classrooms. He found a pickle jar that had yellow fluid that much in it. And Alisco, you should drink that.

Blaine says, okay. And he went to go take the pickle jar off the ground and it was stuck. Like he had to like put some force, like peel it off the tile. And I go, Blaine, what are you doing? He goes, what are they gonna pay you? Like a hundred bucks? He's like Gavin said he's gonna pay me like a hundred bucks. What the hell is wrong with you?

But it was like 25 bucks. Whatever it was was not worth it. He's like, he was up there. I think hundred bucks. What the hell is wrong with you? Huh. But it was like, it was like 25 bucks, whatever it was was not worth it. He was like, it was up there. I think I worked it up there because you came in, you're like, ah, I've got to do that. Oh. And then they were like $200.

He probably saved your life. Well, the only reason I didn't is because I was so, like you convinced me I was gonna die. And I was like, well, I don't wanna die before we wrap production. That's what I was saying. So then I, I say- I think wait til after the production,

then drink it. And I told the story to hold onto it and they didn't hold onto production. That's what I was saying. So then I say, I wait till after the production, then drink it. And I told somebody to hold onto it, and they didn't hold onto it. Oh, what a shame. I wonder if they still have it. That's a jar of piss, dude. That's what that is. Like, there's a pickle left in there.

There's some seeds. You can piss on a pickle, dude. It's not that hard. Why would you piss on a pickle? I want to have it as a pickle. As I'm an expert, you can piss on a pickle. I can. I would not, a litmus test of any kind. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle.

I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle.

I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle.

I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to be a piss on a pickle. I want to remind everyone who's here in person they can visit the merch booth at the back of the venue. Once we're wrapped here, because we're getting close to wrapping up, I want to remind everyone who's here to also take photos at the photo booth and use hashtag rtx presents. And if you're here in person, there's a documentary crew who really wants to interview some of you, especially want the people from Sicily and New Zealand. How do they, I don't know how you find the docker who I was just told to say that.

Where's the docker? They're back there. There's Hannah at the back. She's waving her hand. Get with Hannah. And they want to talk to you. So when they have like a couple minutes left, I just want to get there. For an angel, she's heard you go, oh.

It's Pieler semi UFC. Is anyone going to be at South by Southwest this year? I'm going to have to go into hiding. Blank, after this. Anyone going to come? Oh, Southwest this year? I'm gonna have to go into hiding playing after this. I'm gonna Oh, we have a movie premiering there. Yeah Yeah, if you're here in town you should come see blood fest. It's premiering at South by it's like a always a Friday or a Saturday It's a I don't know they've announced when it's gonna be yet. I think they did. Yeah, no, it's a midnight or one Midnighter. Did they put the schedule out yet? I thought they did. Anthony. Do you know?

I thought they did. So March 9th or technically I guess 10th at midnight. Yeah, Friday night, right? March 9th, March 10th, March 16th. So if you're here for a little bit. And sell by Southwest is they have a lot of layers of passes. But then there is a point when they exhaust all the audience and want to see something with all the different passes, then they do sell tickets to the public, right? I think you could just buy a ticket to see a movie

as South by, correct me from wrong, maybe? It's essentially like the lowest priority though. Yeah. They wait until just before the movie, they open the box office and sell the remaining seats. So you might have to wait in line a little bit. But try it out. It might be kind of crowded on the first one,

but it might be less crowded. It's our very first horror movie, man. And one last thing Bethany wants to remind everyone that tickets are going on sale for RTX again. I don't have the price, Bethany. You're still needy back there. What's going on? I don't have the copy in front of me, so I'm going to read exactly what she sent.

Announce ticket sales for RTX one last time, pretty pleased. So there you go. All right, so it's about time to wrap this up. So I want to thank everyone for watching and thank everyone who's here in person for coming out and watching us record this thing. Hope you all have fun this week. Hope everyone has a good time this week during a live week. So thanks and we'll see you guys next time. Love you. Bye. Subscribe to ShowTween Newcom newcomer in a more familiar way.
