It's time to put your pedal to the metal.
From the twisted minds behind Deadpool and Zombieland,
an executive producers, Will Arnett and Anthony Mackie
comes the new Peacock original series, Twisted Metal,
a high-oxane action comedy based on the classic video game series.
Anthony Mackie stars as John Doe, a motor-mouthed outsider
who must deliver a mysterious package
across a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
If he can survive the drive, also starring Stephanie Beatriz, Samoa Joe, Nev Campbell,
Will Arnett, and Thomas Hayden Church, twisted metal, streaming now, only only on peacock. Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
This is a rooster teeth production.
Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Rooster Podcast. It's a nice tight single on your boy Gus.
That's cool. I'm Chris. This is Barbara. And still Gus over here. And Gus is over here.
Gus over there. I'm everywhere. I'm surrounded by Gus on all sides.
Chris sat down over there and he put my pillow on his lap and he went I shouldn't do that I
This I was like oh no, but then he said this is okay. This is okay. Yeah, it's better
Yeah, the gusts roll a pillow. He belongs there. Yeah, not available in any store near you
Before we go any further. I feel I absolutely need to mention this is a pre-tap
This is a pre-recorded which we're recording it in the morning
Which is why Barbara and I are about drinking coffee
Yeah, I don't really I don't drink coffee during the live podcast
I like drinking coffee in the morning and lots of days
I'll drink coffee in the afternoon too, but I will absolutely not drink coffee in the afternoon on Mondays
Why?
Because coffee makes me pee
Oh, oh
I'm gonna probably, I don't know if I'm able to sit through this whole podcast
Have you ever loved to drink?
I left it once, I don't know if I'm able to sit through this whole podcast. Have you ever loved to play? I left it once. I had, I had diarrhea.
During the post show where Jessica Negri was on.
Yeah.
Like she was, what was she like, yeah Jessica Negri was here, we were doing the post show
of the other stage.
I was like, I gotta go and I left her a couple of minutes and came back and I was awful.
Oh my God.
That's the only time I've ever left.
Yeah, I can't recall you ever having to leave for the bathroom.
Even, I think out of all the episodes, even back at the Congress office and everything. I don't think I've ever left. Yeah, I can't recall you ever having to leave for the bathroom. Even I think out of all the episodes,
even back at the Congress office and everything,
I don't think I've ever had to leave.
Every time I've had to go, I feel so bad.
You do such a good job of gilting.
I don't try to gilt anyone.
I have to leave last podcasting.
Before I leave, maybe I'm inferring it.
I think this is a self-inflicted guilt.
Yeah, I definitely used to guilt people in the early days.
Because back then, people would show up for the podcast
and drink like three or four beers right at the top.
Like, what are you doing?
You're gonna have to pee.
Do you remember when we used to drink on the podcast?
Yeah.
That was, I used to have like two three beers every podcast me to and I
I say hey, why not bring it back right now
Wednesday morning celebrate and hump day. Let's go hell yeah in comments every now and then I see people ask about
Off topic specifically like they're like do is there like some company rule or people don't drink on camera anymore
No, no one ever we're just gonna hold it older. So yeah, I think the timing was probably such
that when the pandemic happened,
and we had to switch to remote recording,
we kind of got out of that habit, I think.
And then now we've come back,
or even when we came back initially,
there was a rule briefly because of COVID restrictions.
Like you could only have, I think, two beers.
Something like that.
Yeah.
And then I think we just like, everyone just kind of like stopped and we just haven't
gotten back into it.
Well, it used to be like it's like it was like social drinking.
Like, yeah, I've been drinking with your friends and I don't know about y'all.
I don't feel super great about like sitting in front of my computer and slamming.
Like, slamming to bring beer.
Beer's very self-cold.
At 5 p.m. on a Monday.
It's funny because both Gavin and I during quarantine, when we were like working
from home that whole time, we both, I think, had a small case of white claw each. And it
took us, I think, the entire two years to go through, like, an entire case, because we
would just have one white claw on the podcast. And that was it.
But I also largely stopped drinking. I didn't like 100% stop drinking, but almost two years ago now,
I really significantly stopped where I might have a drink
every four or five months at this point.
Like it's not at all before,
like you said getting older and just like really
letting the foot off the gas.
Especially during the quarantine time.
Like Trevor and I are not really big drinkers at all.
And like the only time we really drink
is like if we go out for
someone's birthday, like something where it's like, yeah, we'll get a drink or like a nice
dinner, we'll get a glass of wine or whatever it is. Although I think I might be developing
an allergy or an intolerance to alcohol. Why do you say that? Because lately, if I go out,
if I get, it's usually wine too, that does this to me. I'll have one glass of wine.
And then all night, my heart will be racing really me. I'll have one glass of wine and then all night
My heart will be racing really fast. I'll feel sick to my stomach and I'll wake up feeling like shit
After just one glass and it's like it's happened almost every time I've had wine in the last like three or four months
It's I think people do sometimes have intolerance to wine. You're not a very tolerant person more
It's like the night traits in it.
Like I think normally people get headaches and stuff.
But I think the tanons, the tanons, you said it too.
Oh my God.
Oh, is it something you can develop over time?
Because I think like, every allergy you can develop
over time.
Tans been at this town for way back.
The tanon, sorry, factor feature.
I think also, I think he's spoken about this publicly.
Jeremy also, I think, has developed a bit of a allergy
to alcohol.
Oh, really?
And John lost his allergy to alcohol.
I know.
I'm not allergic to alcohol.
I think he gave it to someone.
Yeah.
He said, you're just like, I'm riding home.
Good, baby.
Nana.
I have a friend of mine who is very allergic to wine,
or not to alcohol in general.
I don't know if it's allergic,
but he does not react well to alcohol.
And maybe he can have one drink, maybe.
And that one drink might take him to barf town.
Yeah.
Like lots of times.
Yeah, not worth it.
Not worth it. It's not worth it.
It's not worth it.
Yeah, I think I'm still OK with like clear liakers, like vodka and tequila.
I don't think I've caused me any issue or gin.
But I'm also like, eh.
I don't really find that much joy and drinking.
I have issues with gin, but not for any of these reasons.
Did it wrong?
What gin did you really make sure to reasons. Did it wrong, you? Did Jin, did your friend, you know?
Oh, Jin, did Jin not pay rent?
Yeah, Jin was bad to me.
I don't know if I ever told this story.
I'll tell it.
When I was like, I guess it was in 18,
because whenever I came back from college
when I was a freshman, my friend Mary,
had, she had super protective parents.
And so all through high school,
she'd like, no one had ever been to her house.
She'd like, she'd never, like, I don't even think,
we'd even met her parents.
Wow.
I had because, so they'd come by when I worked
Marvel Slab, give my screen, and she'd be like,
hey, so they knew me.
Barely, I was the guy, so I'd be like,
did they tip?
Yeah, I don't remember.
Probably not. Slat them an extra scoop everyone's gonna tip. Yeah, I don't remember I'm an extra scoop everyone
Another slab. Yeah, but so then there was one night during the summer when we came back for freshmen
She was like hey my parents are out of town for the weekend. We're having a party at my place
We're really yeah, and so we're like okay, we can do this
We all went to marriage place and we've got a ton of drinks,
a ton of drinks, and that was also the first time I had gin.
And I remember I was already a little under the influence.
And underage.
And under the don't drink and underage and drive.
Either. Don't do anything. Anything, anything. Anything and drive Either don't do anything anything anything anything this story don't do
Except for work at Marvel slab you get that yeah, I follow Chris's suit here. Yeah, I mean
There were some people who were over 21 or don't buy alcohol for miners
Yeah, we were in college so you were college, some of which are probably.
We're all like 19 or 20 at least.
Yeah, you're probably 19 or 50.
And then so I tasted gin for the first time.
And I think at first I liked it.
I was like, oh my god, it tastes like Christmas trees.
This is amazing.
You know?
The third Christmas sponsor.
And then so I was like, I'm drinking more Christmas trees.
Give me a look at Christmas trees.
And then I drank too much Christmas tree like I'm drinking more Christmas trees give me look at Christmas trees and then I
Drink too much Christmas tree had too much Christmas spirit
This is ruined Christmas. It's good. Oh, and I remember like my friend PJ
He'd already had too much Christmas tree and he was throwing up and then I was throwing up in the toilet
We were both throwing up and then at some point we both passed out
We're in I think Mary's parents bed
and then
She had to go to work the next morning. She had like an early like she I think she would like people who are the
Yeah, oh yeah, it was mostly like probably ten of us at crash there. I think we're all guys
She hung out with the law guys. Not
bad. Oh, no, no, no. Just, hey, I got a lot of
guy friends. And she had to go work next morning. She
got to go to work. We're sitting there and then my friend PJ like wakes me up early.
And he's like, Hey, there's like workers at the door. And I'm like, okay, it's like, should we answer the door?
I'm like, no, no.
It's like, what are we supposed to do?
It's like, well, her parents are out of town
and she's at work.
We should pretend like no one's here.
But that's what-
Right, because you're not supposed to be there.
And then I was like, I go, I said, go back asleep.
And he's like, okay.
And then I go to sleep.
And then he's like, hey, Chris,
Chris, they're like working in a yard and like, they're like, okay. And then, I go to sleep, and then he's like, hey, Chris, Chris, they're like working in a yard,
and they're like, they're here,
but yeah, that's fine, go back to sleep.
That's what, you know, they're probably here
to do stuff in the yard.
It's weird to hear a story where Chris is a rational one,
but okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then, and I go back to sleep,
and then, a third time I wake up,
I look up, because someone's entering the door and
it's Mary's dad. Oh God. Oh no. Oh and I just look up and I'm like what do I do? I'm just
like throw you know he's just you're frozen like a marble slab. I know. And this is like me, I'm in his bed.
And he just like, looks like did say a word.
Just like, he was like moving and like,
whore, just stunned.
And then he goes and pulls back the bed
because my friend PJ was under the covers.
Like hiding or?
Yes.
Yeah, he pulls back the covers. And then my friend PJ's like wide-eyed just like
And then and then the only word he said while we were there was he goes wow
And then just walked out and then I was like
Time to go. You all just walked out without saying anything
Like he's gonna be mad at his kid, probably.
Yeah.
And then, so I'm like putting my clothes on
and peaches like, what are we doing?
You were taking, yeah, that was the thing.
Well, I mean, I was drunk and I picked you up
and I was at naked.
I figure you just passed out with your clothes on.
No, I don't think he made the conscious decision.
He's probably thinking it was just drunk rain.
I was wearing a shirt.
Okay, so you're in a shirt box.
A shirt box, yeah.
And then, I was like, I don't know,
PJ was wearing a shirt.
But anyway, PJ is like, what do we do?
We'll get dressed and let's go.
Let's get out of here.
So then we're like, there's like all an exodus of,
of deans, hungover guys.
Like, and then we're like trying to get out really quick and then we like walk out and like crap
We forgot the alcohol and so we got and then I was not gonna go back for but then my friend Kevin's like
I'm not gonna free and he runs back and he grabs it all because they'd been stacking it on the table
and he grabs it and then runs back and then we like book out of there and then like we're like fought
We're we're calling
Mary and we're like hey your parents calling Mary, and we're like, hey, your parents just showed up,
she's like, nah, she didn't believe us,
she thought we were joking, we're like, no, no,
they're like there, and we were all there,
and they're not happy, at least according to the wow.
And maybe it was a good wow.
It wasn't like an old Wilson, wow.
I'm impressed by another house friends.
Yeah, but we were in his bed.
Wow.
And then the other funny thing too, is then we're like,
oh, wait, my Matthew's calling us.
We'd left him.
Is this another guy at the party?
He would left him at the house.
And I was like, wait, what happened to Matthew?
And maybe he was hiding under the sheet on another bed.
Well, apparently my friend Cody was like,
trying to wake him up and he wouldn't.
I just love the idea of this guy Matthew waking up in a house and it's like Mary's whole
family and no one else from the parties.
He's like yep.
Hi.
I'm a serviceman.
And he said like is Mary's mom like did you get left and he goes yeah.
And then and then he said he tried to just go back to what I don't know he might have
been he might have been
Joe a little or still a little girl. Yeah, definitely hung over and drunk and then so then we had to go get him and we found him
He was like jogging on the side of the road, but then he like why was he jogging?
He was running from the house, but why run? I don't know what you should have done and then he threw up
Of course he got in the car and then we drove for a few minutes and he's like I pull over and he got on throw up
I got shit had done. He should have pretended to be the workers
Got there and help them with over there doing I always needed a nap
It's just your story of why you hate gin anyway. Yeah, that's why he gin
Yeah, cuz the first time I had it I got you sick to sit. I can't imagine being the parent in that situation.
I'm like, old enough now to where I'm like, I can't imagine coming home and it's like
finding a bunch of kids in your house and like, you get it to your bedroom and there's
a young Chris DeMaris and some other kid trying to hide under the blanket and you're just,
that's sort of what we're talking about.
Wow. Yeah, I feel like I'd be like, all right, well and you're just, that's sort of, wow. Wow. Okay, wow.
Yeah, I feel like I'd be like, all right, well,
you're at home.
I mean, you get the fuck out of my bed.
You could've fallen asleep anywhere.
Probably whenever you get there,
the first tip is that there's a bunch of cars
in your driveway.
Just like, yeah.
Like 10 guys worth of cars.
But maybe they think it's the workers who showed up too.
But there's also those cars.
See, like there's a lot of workers here today.
What did you ever find out what happened?
She thought the parents would still be at a town.
They were supposed to go for two days
and I think they ended up coming back
because they need something about.
Maybe maybe it was the workers who were doing stuff
for their house.
I don't know.
I barely heard from Mary that summer
because she got grounded real hard.
Coincol said this is just like parasite.
You should have...
No. It's not happening in the basement. real hard quote-unquote said this is just like parasite you should have
There's like 30-year-olds hiding in the basement. They've been there. We've been stuck here from the left and they're very through

lack of motivation, feeling helpless or trapped, detachment, fatigue, more. You know, with everything
has been going on in the world for the past couple of years, I think we're realizing more and more
that people are suffering from burnout and just from being overwhelmed by everything happening in the world and it seems like it's a lot to take on, but luckily, I feel like there's
a lot less stigma when it comes to mental health.
If you need help overcoming that overwhelming dread associated with just the world in general,
hey, now there's ways to find help.

I came for the drive and I was just like,
so I've ridden with anxiety the entire time knowing
that you were doing the reunion stuff
because Aaron had told me what he was gonna make you do.
So you were at second hand in anxiety.
At Chris's house being like,
oh, it's probably happening right now.
No.
I'm just saying like, oh.
Oh, that's right, you just hung out at my house
with my mom.
And someone else, I think, cool.
Maybe.
Mm-hmm.
I forget, there's like a couple of people who went,
but it was funny.
Man, I like like that period of my
That that weekend out if that's the best I could the you know something's bad if Chris is like I don't want to I don't want to remember that
I'm gonna block that out

Oh yeah, I was like we should make an announcement about that because we haven't done
you want to make an announcement about it? We are doing a good morning from hell show live at RTX.
Yes, and I'm not won't say the premise of it because I'm sure it'll be in the program of like
what the title of it is. But I think it's gonna be actually good.
Don't even know what the exact title is
because I think Blaine filled out the,
we talked about it but Blaine filled out the part.
I know it's talking with Blaine
this weekend he's so excited for it.
Like I'm very excited.
We need to tell you the premise and everything.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, we've never, we never did a live show
with like an audience.
Oh, right, I guess it's like very during pandemic time.
Yeah, because you all started right before pandemic.
We started, yeah, I think.
I think you never had a good morning from,
good morning from the health thing at RTX before.
It would have been well, not virtual.
Not virtual, not, there's all virtual.
We did.
Oh my God.
They started, yeah, good morning from the late 2019.
Like December 2019, I want to say.
No, it was the end of October.

So we did.
Two markets.
Good morning from Hills fault.
Oh, my God.
Well, I mean, it's a it's a podcast about hell.
Yeah.
And we did with the spring alive spring event series,
but that was alive in studio. In studio with no audience.
Yeah, with audience virtually.
Yeah.
But we never, and so we, yeah, we get some like fun stuff
planned for the audience that are going to be there.
I feel like if there's, if there's one panel you want to go to,
it's that one.
Just because I think it's going to be very ridiculous and very
funny.
Yeah.

No wonder he didn't want to be here today. Oh, you know, when I'm here, I'm going to be here. Kevin's birthday. He remember is it? Damn it. I'm birthday Gavin. No wonder he didn't want to be here today.
Oh, you know, Gavin's birthday. He's celebrating.
He's celebrating. He's celebrating.
I'm right now in long view Texas with most of those people I just mentioned in that party.
Why?
No, Chris, you're right here. This is all in the future.
No, in the future. In the now now.
Not the past now. Why? What are you doing now?
Just some friends doing like a lake, lake guy hang out weekend thing is Mary coming
I don't think so I think it's all just dudes. Oh nice
Oh Mary did I mean I'm sure she I'm sure she made you to her party. All right. I'm sure she this is I'm sure she would be welcome
In fact, maybe I'll text her even though it's not my lake house. I'm going to buy you a bunch of gin.
No, I mean, so they're going to drink some Christmas milk.
Christmas trees.
I will drink gin in cocktails.
Just not.
Yeah, a gin and tonic?
No.
That's just like the taste of gin.
In a cocktail, but no.
What about gin and juice?
We've got a martini.
If it doesn't taste like gin yet,
if it's like a dirty martini.
That's very, that's very ginny.
Well, extra dirty.
It's just, no, it's just,
take that into the mic.
Extra dirty.
Yeah.
Extra dirty.
I think that you.
Cool.
Yeah, that's mine, that's mine.
I'm about the olives now.
Yeah, all about it.
Oh, which I had sunglasses.
I do, they're over there though.
They're all.
They're all rich.
Yeah.
So, you know, we, like we said, we're pre-taping this, you know, it's not the 23rd, but this
past weekend we had, there was like, one, another one of those alerts from ERCOT that was
like, you're gonna have to,
it's really hot this time of year
so you're gonna have to conserve electricity.
And I don't know if you kept up with what they've said since then,
like starting Monday.
They were like, oh yeah.
And by the way, they announced like at 5 p.m. on Friday.
Oh yeah, they totally did.
They totally buried it.
Then on Monday, they're like, oh yeah,
everyone misunderstood that.
It wasn't like a mandatory you need to conserve electricity.
It was just like a suggestion, like,
hey, maybe it would be a good idea.
It was never really in danger or anything.
Sure.
Also, it's like, you know,
they never said explicitly what happened.
They said like some power or generation was offline.
It's a ton of power too.
But they never specified it,
like specifically what kind?
So you know it wasn't Winder Solar.
Because you know it was a Winder Solar column.
They'd be like, this green renewable energy screwed us over again.
But like if it's anything oiled, and again, they haven't said that.
But it's like almost assuredly, like some kind of oil production problem.
Yeah, the heat is freezing those windmills.
Alright? There's a windman. He is freezing those windmails. All right, it's a development.
As long as Texas is coming out.
As long as the temperature is between like 40 and 85,
we have plenty of power.
Not the Texas weather.
It's like, we're fucking Texas.
The power should be able to keep up with Texas heat.
It's may.
It's also may.
I can't imagine how bad it's going to get in July.
It's really hot.
So what I read, I was looking into this,
because I was curious, it to see if a hot
May portends for a hot summer.
I don't think it does.
It does not necessarily.
Two of the hottest summers ever did have hot maize,
but typically a hot maid does not indicate that the summer
will be hotter than normal.
I think like in 2008 and 2018 that was the case, but just because it's hot now doesn't
mean we're going to be in for necessarily a brutal summer.
What it typically does mean though, what we are having also is like not a lot of rain
in may.
We don't have a lot of rain in may, it means it's probably going to be a dry summer.
It's like rain next week though.
I think this weekend is like in the Tuesday.
I like it
when there's not a lot of rain because I don't have to get my grass mode as
much. Yeah, but then you're you have to water your grass then. I don't water.
I do you have you have weeds probably weeds. Yeah, yeah, I don't I don't
write you should water. Well, I don't I don't it's a waste of energy and water.
It's not really good for the environment. My, the first house I bought,
plants.
Yeah, but like, it's not native.
Yeah, I mean, I, I mean, it stays pretty green.
Yeah, the first house I bought,
I like didn't take care of grass or anything.
It was like, it was just like clover
and like whatever would grow naturally.
It's like, great.
I don't have to, like, I never really worried
about watering it. Like every now and then, just had to cut it and trim it down. It's like, great. I don't have to, like I never really worried about watering it.
Like every now and then just had to cut it and trim it down.
It's like, that's what's supposed to be here.
It doesn't take any extra work on my part really.
Yeah.
And let me, I do like do what do you call that?
When you work in the front yard landscaping?
Landscaping.
I do some landscaping and stuff.
It doesn't look bad.
I was not like, I was just like a crap hole.
Yeah.
I mean, it's like, I got like flower beds with stuff and I like pull weeds and do all that.
I just don't, I just don't think it's like a good use of money or the, like it's bad
to be out there water.
Grass is not good.
Grass is not good.
I've seen some people who've changed over their backyard or lawn to clover.
You've seen this before? It looks really cool. It looks good for bees, right? I think it's
good for bees. I think it's also just like easier. That's what I had in my first house in
the front yard. It was all clover. It was just like weeds or anything. It was just all clover.
I mean, every now and then there'd be some weeds, but the clover does such a thorough job of covering the ground
That there's really no space for anything of that. Yeah, it's really pretty looking. Yeah
Maybe I should also like I don't want bees in my backyard first
I don't really have that in the beach. I think about it. I'd bugger would like it. I
Wonder if he'd eat it. Well, I just tried my thinking was soft
My roommate has a dog and every time we take her for a walk she'll grab a leaf and go drive by salad. Drive by salad.
I can't imagine. It's funny to me that dogs don't have hands so they have to use their mouth to
grab things. So it's like everything, every interaction in the world, well not every, but lots of interactions in the world
happen through their mouth.
Like, you know, either whether it's grabbing something
or, you know, playing with something or eating,
like, everything has to be focused through the mouth.
You know, some dogs use their hands,
like, or they're a positive, very rudimentary tree,
but it's like, what a different experience in the world
when you're like tasting everything.
It's kind of like, well, from that movie,
I don't think it's a spoiler,
but they use their feet because they have hot dog vingers.
Everything everywhere, always.
Yeah, and how they just do everything,
but yeah, if humans did everything with their mouths and tongue,
like, that's how they like, should hang.
Well, that's kind of like kissing.
It's kind of like, yeah.
We look like one thing, we're two things we're eating
in kissing, but like if you were like doing surgery,
but with your tongue, like,
maybe that's why dogs haven't become surgeons.
Yeah.
That's why.
Yeah, I think one thing we cracked.
That's what's stopping them, yeah.
It's like, he's a really smart dog,
but he's a terrible surgeon.
Yeah, no rule that dogs can't perform surgery.
The airbud rule.
The airbud.
Fucking hell.
Oh, god.
It's not in the rule book, so.
There's no laws against it.
I was it last week tonight did a special in the airbud.
They did.
They did.
It was really funny.
It was like a web exclusive, but it was actually really interesting. It was like a web exclusive. It was actually really interesting.
It was really funny. But a lot of it was about how the whole movie is based on what is
and isn't in the rule book. Yeah. Yeah. But then at the end, whenever they're deciding
if Airbud gets to go with the owner or the kid. Yeah. There are rules around dog ownership ownership
and they threw those out the help.
Yeah, there's this, basically, it's like the whole story
of Airbud is how this dog was with this owner who
like was apparently abusive, although I don't know.
He was me.
He was me, I think, to him.
And this whole thing of the, the kid finds the dog
and then plays for the basketball team
and then the owner comes back to like get the dog.
And like basically the owner is made up
to be the villain of the movie
and the kid is the hero and stuff like that.
But like, it's the owner's dog, like it's his dog.
And he's gonna talk the dog to play basketball.
True, but that's like you see situations
where a person's like neglectful or.
Right.
And it's like, you should watch where a person's like neglectful or right and it's like you should watch it
It's very interesting actually. It's like in the Simpsons when the
Greyhound owner comes back to try to take San as little helper
After having neglected him. Yep, so does any speaking of stories like that does any of you watch better call Saul? Yeah
It's like the last seasons's going on right now.
Oh, it's really, it's really good.
I didn't know there were more out.
Yeah, the season finale, like the last season's airing right now,
but they're doing that thing where there's a mid season finale.
The mid season finale's next week.
So this is a good time to watch.
To catch you. Yeah, to catch you.
Yeah, to catch you. Yeah, to catch you.
I watched it all during quarantine.
Like I watched, I rewatched all Breaking Bad and the movie,
and then I was like, well, I guess when I was watching
Better Call Saul, I mean, it was really good.
I'm not a big fan of the first season.
I think it's a little slow.
Yeah.
Like the story with the embezzlement
that they kind of kick off with.
Yeah.
Anyway, it's like a lot of like spin offs,
like the American office, the first season. They have to find their footing. Yeah, but after that it's really great. But in that
show Howard Hamlin is kind of like the villain and like Saul and his wife are
trying to spoiler are trying to like to always get revenge on him or play tricks on him
or make him out to be like the bad guy. He really didn't do that much bad. He was an asshole to
Kim, but he really didn't do anything to sell good men, but it's always like, we're gonna get
Howard Hamlin. Sometimes I'm like, I kind we're gonna get Howard Hamlin. And it's like, sometimes I'm like,
I kind of feel bad for Howard right now.
Well, it's also kind of like in breaking bad,
how Skylar was made out to be such a bad person,
even though she was just trying to like,
do you write by her family and stuff like that?
Yeah, I, I, I, I, I did not like Skylar,
but I think it's more, I don't think she was fleshed out as a character.
I was thinking she wasn't writing well.
Oh yeah.
Like she's written as a,
almost as a problem to over, like up,
you know, obstacle.
Another obstacle to overcome for Walter White.
Yeah, have you ever seen Ozark?
I haven't.
So Ozark fixes my Skyler problem,
where like.
Are there similar characters in the world?
Well, it's like she's the wife, you know, but she's not an obstacle.
Like, she's a lot of agency, right?
Yeah, she has a lot of agency and she really like has her own fully fleshed out story and
you know, really contributes to everything that's going on.
So like, I mean, I wouldn't say the Ozark and Breaking Bad are the same.
They're the same in that, it's like.
Cream-us.
Yeah, I guess it's like criminal underpinnings.
It's also an excellent show.
It just wrapped up.
Trevor and I are, we were talking about getting into that show.
I think he watched the first episode of the live.
The first episode is real good.
It's really good.
Yeah, I watched the first season.
I was like, oh, this is good. But then it was like went away and I just didn't, you know. Now that it's done, this is the perfect time is real good. It's really good. Yeah, I watched the first season. I was like, oh, this is good.
But then it was like, went away and I just didn't, you know.
Yeah, now that it's done, this is the perfect time to watch it.
And in fact, like, there's a point in, you know,
eventually in the show where like, you think like Jason
Bateman's character is kind of like in charge and everything.
And then like, his wife kind of like takes the reins and you're like,
oh, shit, he's not in control anymore.
Like, she's running the show and like, she's doing, she's making, like he said, she has agency like, oh shit, he's not in control anymore. Like she's running the show and like she's doing,
she's making, like he said, she has agency.
And so like she's making the choices.
Why not?
Some of the later seasons of Breaking Bad,
spoiler for a 10 year old show at this point.
Yeah.
She starts helping him with like the car wash,
right, and like money laundering and stuff like that.
Like she actually becomes very helpful to him.
Yeah, and her, I think her character gets better.
It gets better at that point too,
because she's, again, not in,
but it's definitely written as like,
you are supposed to hate this person.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't think that was the intention.
I think it was,
I think anyone getting in Walter White's way was thinking.
That's what I'm saying.
It's like she was like, again,
and something to overcome an obstacle to the story.
So then it's funny.
I love Breaking Bad.
I think it's one of the best shows ever.
But there are some characters that are kind of like forgotten for long stretches of time.
Like I think there's one scene for Sky's like to water like what about Holly?
Holly, who the fuck?
Oh, his kid, the baby.
There's a baby in the show.
I know.
Well, that's one of those things too. It's like, it's not like the baby's like doing much. Right. It's just like, the baby. He's shy, oh yeah. There's a baby in this show. Well, it's one of those things too.
It's like, it's not like the baby's doing much.
Right.
It's just like, just exists.
Unless it's like, unless there's like a creature
that kills things that make noise,
like, you know, then the babies aren't,
don't do much.
Yeah, and Erickson Slack is like,
why did Marie have the stealing arc in season one?
Why? Is that, oh Marie, yeah. Yeah, like she's like, is like, why did Marie have the stealing arc in season one? Why?
Is that, oh Marie, yeah.
Yeah, like she's like,
go see the like that shoplifting face.
She gets like the tiara for the baby.
It's like, and then it's just kind of like,
it doesn't go any-
It's dropped.
Yeah.
I just like, I don't know,
where are you gonna go with that?
Yeah, but why even introduce it?
Yeah, I mean, it's inch, I guess you're-
I just did not come back at all.
No, no.
Mm-mm.
Huh.
No. I've re free watch that showed twice.
Now I want to do it a third time,
just to look for that stuff.
It's an interest, it makes her character interesting
as a little bit of...
A bunch of Sur out more, but then it's not really paid off.
Well, I guess they don't really,
like Hank and Marie come back
throughout the series in different ways, of course,
but I think it tends to focus on Jesse and Walter for.
Yeah, well they have to keep, like,
Hank, around for the danger for the law enforcement,
so it's like, how do you keep that circle?
TV structure, like, to be plots and stuff,
just like, space not the episode,
have those characters around.
Yeah, you watched all the Breaking Bad, right?
Cool.
I have a friend of mine who has never watched Breaking Bad,
but he likes Better Call Saul.
Whoa. And he's like, one of these days, I'm gonna watch Breaking Bad, but he likes Better Call Saul. Whoa.
And he's like, one of these days I'm gonna watch Breaking Bad.
And then he was upset because he got a Breaking Bad spoiler
that kind of like let him know that certain characters
would live through Better Call Saul
because they're still alive and breaking bad.
That's like watching Spider-Man No Way Home
and being upset about,
and like, other than games spoiler in here.
Yeah. What's the snap? Yeah, what a snap. Spider-Man no way home of being upset about and like other then games spoiler in here
What's the snap?
Five years what what happened
It was like dude that's on you that's it's a
He was watching the prequel. Yeah, he was mad because he knows that might he found out that Mike Irman trout is in breaking bad He's like well now. I know he's gonna survive better call Saul. It's like well
breaking bad. He's like, well now I know he's going to survive better call Saul. It's like, well,
man too bad. I have a thing I don't get and I want to bring it up because it makes no sense to me.
You've come to the right place. Well, I'm not gonna plan it. Okay, but I'll let you know, but I don't,
and I was talking, I was like looking up tickets and stuff,
and talking about like when to go,
and I was like, oh, you know, like there's, you know,
this Saturday or this Sunday,
I was like, like who's, who are they playing?
And apparently they play the same team multiple
times. Yeah, series. But so that makes no sense. So what are you talking about? Okay, so
baseball team goes to meet up with another team and then they just play each other multiple
times. Yeah, you've already made the trip. You may as well make the most out of it. But
you also have like different pictures, different, you have already made the trip you may as well make the most out of it But you also have like different pictures different. Yeah, you have a different team format like every day
It's not the same picture every day. Yeah, but is this MLB. Yeah, yeah
I mean, you're talking you're talking about something that's existed for a hundred years Chris
I know but it makes no sense
This is tobacco Chris. I didn't know that this happened either
I cuz like I'm you know, I'm with it
I have a problem This is to back you up Chris. I didn't know that this happened either. I because like I You never you'd also never see it. I mean like I'm gonna go watch a texturators baseball game probably right never gone to an
I'll be game Toronto Blue James. I've been and I'd been to a baseball game before I know how baseball works
I play big apparently you don't Chris no no I know how the game it's so works
I played baseball when I was in like you know fifth grade so I
But the idea of like going up and then
playing a game and like, well, we're going to play me again tomorrow. It just kind of killed it.
To be fair too. There's, I don't think there's any other major league sport that does that.
See? Well, lots of...
Like, hockey doesn't do it. I don't think basketball does it.
Basketball doesn't play off.
Basketball doesn't play off.
Yeah. But lots of sports also have more of a break between games.
Yeah.
Baseball, they'll play games like back to back. I think if anything, it's a holdover from when But lots of sports also have more of a break between games. Yeah.
Baseball they'll play games like back to back.
I think if anything, it's a holdover from when travel was a lot more difficult.
Yeah.
And it's like the team would travel.
We're already here.
We have to take a 20 hour bus ride to get here.
That's bang out a couple of games.
Baseball, the sport that most like is just on.
Yeah.
It's like America's pastime. Yeah. So it's like they just want to is just on. Yeah. It's like America's pastime.
Yeah.
So it's like they just want to have it on.
Yeah.
Constantly.
And if you think about like hockey or basketball,
all the players are skating around or running
or doing a physical activity, where it's baseball,
most of the time you're standing there
unless you're batting or unless the ball gets hit
by pitching it to you, right?
Yeah, for some more stationary.
I know with hockey playoffs, I think I'm getting this right.
And I might have some hockey fans in the audience correct me
So please do
But when the playoffs if it's like let's say Ottawa versus Montreal. Yeah, it'd be Ottawa, Ottawa
So like Ottawa first night Ottawa this the second
I wouldn't be back to back nights, but like for the second game and then Montreal Montreal and then if it's still going
Yeah, so Montreal It depends if it's a five game series or a seven game series. Yeah Montreal and then if it's still going on a lot Montreal.
It depends if it's a five game series or a seven game series.
Yeah, they'll break it up.
So that the team typically the team with the better record gets more home
games like if it's a five game.
So we'll get three or four.
It's because I mean, you kind of want to see what the actual best team is.
I mean, that is a better way of like because like it could be a flute.
I mean, you see in football all the time, there's like a flute game where like
every year, the dolphins beat the Patreon somehow. But Ryan points out that baseball also has 162 games
of season. That's wild. Oh, and Mike also just send exactly that's the same thing. That's also
you don't have to have 162 games of season. But I think there's a lot of tradition right
in baseball. That's what baseball thrives on is, this is the way it's been done forever.
And it's going to keep going now.
I think it's cool because it means everyone on the team
gets a chance to play.
So it's like, yeah, it's not like being
what do you call it, second string.
It's also their strategy to it of like,
because it's all about pitching.
So it's like, there's a strategy of, OK, what day are we
going to put this pitcher who's going to be good against this
kind of lineup? But, but it does like ruin to some extent
the idea, like the movie.
And maybe that's because like I think a lot of like
baseball movies, there's the big game where
you don't ever see like, then play a team
and then immediately play that team again
and then play that team again, you know, like
they do it in a rookie. The, I don't remember team again. You know, like, Did they do it in a rookie?
I don't remember the rookie.
You know, like, when you think about like,
I mean, money, bully do it.
Well,
Rookie the movie.
Yeah. Maybe,
I, I, I, I,
With the kid,
Yeah. With the kid,
Yeah.
What I'm saying,
Do they do it,
Do they do it,
Do they,
I don't think they ever really do that.
They show a, a game and they, They show multiple games, but I guess it's on him.
It's his first game, his first game in the pros.
But like, we're bleeding up too.
Do you know what I mean?
It's like that thing in a mood.
Maybe it's because more of my bigger breath
of baseball experience is through movies.
It's like, yeah, they play, it's like,
oh, they're rivals and then they don't play him like three times.
You know, it's just like once. Well, that's also Chris. You know, play them like three times, you know? It's just like once.
Well, that's also Chris.
You know, movies have like, I know, I know.
They're not entirely based in fact in reality.
It's just, they also can't show every, they always want to show the highlights.
But I think also they'll like come up with fake scenarios or weird,
fringe scenarios for movies.
Like, I think in the natural, they had to have like a one game playoff
towards the end of the movie.
Yeah.
And it's like, well, I mean, I guess that might have,
I don't know, I don't know if I've ever seen that.
Or they'll build a scenario where it's like,
well, okay, we're tied in the series.
This is the last game.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah, I feel like they did it.
And like, they'll always say something like that.
Yeah, I guess this is the last game in the series.
Yeah, but see, bottom of the ninth.
To me, the last game in the series, man, it's like the end of the tournament.
But I didn't realize that the teams were playing against each other.
A series of games they're playing.
Yeah, I didn't know that.
I thought it was just like this series.
Make sense.
Yeah.
I feel like more sports should do that because I was even thinking about that with even
hockey playoffs when you're going back and forth and back and forth.
Like if you're playing a team that's not close to you, that's a lot of fucking travel.
Yeah. You know what problem is that those sports are extremely,
nothing against baseball or basketball,
but those sports are like throwing your bodies
at other people so the,
the chance for injuries is so much higher.
Yeah.
Like I think the NFL is constantly trying to,
like they have, every now and then they'll have
a couple of games in England.
And I think they want to try to have a team there,
but the time zone difference is so great,
and the travel is so brutal.
Does England not have its own?
They, like soccer is big there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
American football.
They always have like sell at the stadium
whenever they do the game.
But a modular, but yeah, it's a huge thing.
Imagine being an LA team having to fly or vice versa,
like, yeah, especially like multiple times a month potentially, you know?
Yeah, I mean, look what they probably
was they probably put them like them on the east.
They don't have to add more teams which would change the divisions.
I guess part of it's too is like when you think about going to games and watching games,
like even in high school, you don't see like a football game
where they like play on Fridays and then again on Saturday
and then on Sunday.
Like that felt, and I know that,
so that's a lot of like my exposure to like
going and watching games is like, oh, it's a big game
against our rivals.
Let's play, let's play four of them.
Right.
Back to back to back.
So are you gonna go to a rangers game then? I at some point
It's so much so much fun. Yeah, you get a round arc express
We have a minor league team. Oh, no not yet
Frazel is just totally blank like were you thinking of a train?
Like I thought you are talking about the train to Dallas. No, no
It's like you were speaking another language. No, the round arc express. I. Yeah, no, I want to, I mean, that sounds fun. I like
doing it. I think they're a feeder team feeling. It's not a like I, I, the, it's been a
while seven to a baseball game, but when I was younger, I went to a Rangers
game. I was at the Rangers game where Nolan Ryan got ejected. And then like,
oh, everyone in the stands through trash on the field and they had to stop the game so that they could come out and clean all the trash off the field.
Why didn't get ejected? He hit the same player twice.
I got hit by baseball at a Rangers game when I was a kid.
How did you get on the field and they're like, hey, you get on the field. They put it up my trash by a foul ball.
And I mean, this is very par for the course for me
as far as I think I brought my Game Boy or something
and I had like, was on my Game Boy or something
or like, and all of a sudden I just got,
I was like, I got, don by a bee, you know, like,
I just got a big hit on my shoulder.
I was like, whoa, what the heck happened?
What were you sitting, do you remember?
I don't, I don't remember.
I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know.
I was playing Game Boy.
Mm.
And then, so like my shoulder went numb,
and then the ball bounced off of me
and some dude grabbed it from me.
I mean, not that I knew.
Not that I could.
No, no.
I feel like he deserved it after getting the client though.
Yeah, and like if I was there
and I saw some kid get hit by the ball,
I'd give it to them.
Yeah, well, it was also playing Game Boy.
I don't think he's gonna appreciate it much.
No, I mean, I would have, like,
the, the, the, the,
the pair, man, maybe that was lady with the, well, I don't know, of the stadium
or maybe a PR person came out and talked to me and it's like,
are you okay?
I'm like, yeah, make sure you're not going to sue.
Yeah, yeah, I mean, and they're like, they went and got
another ball and had players sign it and gave it to me.
I probably, it's probably still in my dad's house.
I, I used to go to baseball games fairly regularly when I was a little kid.
I remember the first game I ever went to was at the Astrum.
It was a Houston Astros game.
I got there early.
I was watching all the players warm up and stuff.
I didn't have a pen so I couldn't get an autograph for anything.
But one of the players came over and gave me a baseball.
I was like, oh, that's really cool.
I loved it.
I had a little plastic case.
I kept it on my desk at home.
And several years later, my sister came into my room,
opened up the plastic case, took a pen,
wrote and just scribbled nothing,
just like scribbled all over the ball,
put it back in the plastic case
and left it on my desk.
What did you do to her?
So are you planning your payback still
for that moment?
I was so, I remember that.
I was so fucking mad.
Yeah, so angry.
I'm just like pure spite.
It was like, yeah, like it wasn't even,
like it was, it was in my room, in a case,
there's no way this is an accident.
Right, you gotta, yeah, like you have to go out
very deliberately.
I'm just gonna be on your other baseball.
She's probably like, well I already saw
there was writing on it. It wasn't a reason. I said I didn't have a pen. I couldn't get'm just going to be on your other baseball. She's probably like, well I already saw there was writing on it.
There wasn't a way.
I said I didn't have a pen. I couldn't get an autograph.
It was just a baseball.
Just a baseball.
A prestige.
That makes me sad.
It sucked.
I'm still 30 years later and I'm still more than 30 years later at this point.
I'm mad on your behalf.
Yeah.
We should get revenge.
We should.
We should get revenge for going through a football.
If I hate, you know what? If I go do a ranger's game and if I get hit again by a foul ball, it should get revenge. We should we should get revenge for going. Hey, you know what, if I go do a rangers game and if I get hit again by a foul ball,
it's for you. And the nurse comes up and a little boy. Yeah, it's playing his game boy.
Yeah, yeah. It was I remember it was Jose Cruz was the ashrisk player to give you that ball. That's cool. That would have been like 85, 86 somewhere around there.
It was a long time ago.
Do you guys all have a team in each sport that you root for?
Probably.
Like a hockey team, a baseball team, a basketball team.
Well, not hockey, but all the other ones, yeah.
I would say no, because I don't know anything about.
I mean, I don't care about sports.
I know how to most of the players play.
What you wanna do in a win-dress game?
Well, yeah, I think I like going to,
my brother listened to Alice too and like,
I like going to sports is like,
yeah, so much fun.
Going to a sporting event.
Yeah, like going,
I go to Super Bowl parties because I like,
friends and drinks and food and parties,
not because of the activity that some of you.
Oh man, I get so into the sports.
Yeah, but-
I'm just like, what?
Hold on.
Okay.
Anyway, I forgot what I was gonna say.
I like parties a lot.
Partying a team in-
Oh, yeah.
When I was growing up in elementary school,
for whatever reason, people collected pencils that had sports teams on them because there was a pencil dispenser that
Had different sports teams. Oh, I remember those. Yeah, with like the fat pencils like
pencil. Yeah, there were normal
Round I remember you have the round fat one. Yeah, I remember they weren't super fat.
I don't think special.
Yeah, maybe they were everything.
Maybe they were.
I don't remember that.
You unlocked a memory.
Wow, but yeah, so I collected pencils.
The sport seems just because that was like a thing that people did and the cowboys everyone
was always except about them.
So I like the cowboys, but that was it makes sense in being in Texas.
Yeah, yeah, you all weren't sense in being in Texas. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. You know, you all weren't in Euler's country. No. North Texas East Texas. Well,
this was that was in Lubbock, Texas. That was in Lubbock. That was an existence. There's
nothing around. It's just really fun when you have a team that you're rooting for. Yeah.
And I don't like other than hockey, I don't really have a team in any other sport that I
root for. And I think I'm just going to like like, I'm gonna do some research and pick one.
That's what I do.
I just know how I pick a team to lock on.
Yeah, I know Jeff likes the Celtics a lot.
I hope Celtics, yeah, that's good
because it's like the Celtics like Likers rivalry.
Yeah, maybe, maybe like my nephew will get into sports
or one of them, because I think I can root for them.
Oh yeah, like actually playing it. You're a Lions fan, just because you randomly picked it? Yeah, well I'm not gonna root for them. Oh, yeah, like actually playing it. You're a lion's fan. Disguise you randomly picked it. Yeah, well
Whenever I went to college, whenever I went to college, I I went to band in high school
And so we had like a rivalry with our football team because every year we would make state
They wouldn't and they would make state we wouldn't and so I was gonna like football there band. I'm banned for life
Yeah, and I got to college in like every single one of my friends love football So I was gonna like, eh, football, I'm banned for life, yeah.
And I got to college in like every single one of my friends
love football.
And so I was like, I guess I have to like this now.
Otherwise, I won't be able to talk to them on Sundays.
So you picked the worst team possible?
So I picked the worst team that had the worst records
that way any week it felt like a win.
If they lost, I expected it.
If they won, then it was celebration.
I started, when I started watching Premier League, I chose Crystal Palace to root for it. I was like, no, it. If they won, then it was celebration. When I started watching Premier League,
I chose Crystal Palace to root for it.
I was like, no, it's a shitty team.
I always expected disappointment,
but when they win, it's awesome.
I had the exact same logic.
Which it ruled because I got to like the players a lot,
and then Matthew Stafford this last year got transferred
to the Rams, and he just won his first Super Bowl.
So I was like, this is what it's all about, baby.
Have you guys been to an Austin FC game?
Oh, yeah.
No, I want to.
I'm so glad the city has a professional sports.
It Trevor and I went to one a few months ago.
It's so much fun.
We're good this year.
People get into it here, which is really, like that's the best part
of going to a live sports event is like just the energy that
exists in stadium.
Yeah, kind of live event.
Yeah, yes, like R.T.
Yeah, yeah.
Nice. But like really though, added live event. RTX, like RTX. It would be nice.
But really though, added live event,
I think, more my experience probably is from stuff
like college conventions and RTX and things.
But yeah, the energy of live-
We should go to a Austin FC game.
That'd be awesome.
I thought you were going to say we should all go to our TX.
Yeah, well we should.
I think the loudest professional sports game
in the Vintu is an Austin FC game.
They get so loud and so pumped.
So the visceral excitement and the energy, and even I get why being at a home field
is an advantage, because when you're doing a live podcast or you feed off the audience
and need a site.
Yeah, you're performing your best.
Yeah, definitely.
I think if any of you watching, you're
going to be in town for RTX here in Austin.
If you end up staying before or after or whatever,
you should see if there's an OS is an FC game.
I don't know if they still go on at that time.
I think so.
Yeah, they should be.
But you guys should definitely check it out.
That's like a fun thing that you do.
I think they have to pause the game recently.
They had to take a time out because it was so hot.
They had to do pause the game recently. They had to like take a time out because it was so hot. They had to like do a lot of great.
Jolah, so there's one right before RTX.
These are, you have these are home?
Yeah, these are home.
There's one right before RTX on June 30th.
They're playing Charlotte, then right after
on July 4th, a whole lot of.
Oh, perfect.
Oh, nice.
So you can go to RTX, either day or early or daylight.
Yeah.
Oh, wait, no, no.
These are away games.
Oh, okay. Never mind. Never, no, these are away games.
Never mind.
Never mind.
It's not perfect.
But you can go to a pub and cheer with people.
You might have, there might be one, like, a little more
before.
June 25th, and July 12th.
I'm going to tell him too.
Is it?
I just left.
And it says that it's being played at DSG Park.
That's LA.
That's LA. Huh?
Okay.
Well, look.
I'm looking at it on the drive board.
I'm looking at it.
It says it's at DSG Park in Commerce City, Colorado.
On July 4th, interesting.
Okay.
Maybe you can say, let's have a note game.
So soccer, the reason I said it was home initially was I soccer does that thing where every every sport
the in every other sports the away team is listed first and the home team is listed second
Yeah, but in soccer the home team is first and the away team is second
I'm so excited for the World Cup this year in
December when the fuck is it? Yeah, November. Yeah, it's the world cup this year. Yeah. Yeah
It's every four years, right?
Yeah.
Normally it's in the summer, like June, July,
but it's in Qatar this year.
I don't think they only do it every four years, huh?
Like the Olympics?
They do it every year.
They do it, though.
I would say like a presidential election.
I mean, we can pick arbitrary, rather than four years.
But the other is also sports.
They, no, I'm just giving you sugars, right?
Yeah.
Well, it's like every two years, it's the, every four years, it's men's and then two
years later, Swimmins World Cup and then men's World Cup two years later.
I still remember back in stage five, when we had first moved in, we watched the World
Cup in our office Gus, Fort Dunkel-A-Rola as we...
Oh, I remember.
And we had like, a couple people walk coming and I think like Chris Martin
We had Megan casher and Jordan I think come like watch the games every day or however I think we had someone in the broadcast every day here. We had someone in the broadcast studio like on the big TV
Yeah, the spread TV. Oh, yeah, you sort of broadcast. I did I do now too
You do yeah, I didn't realize that yeah, I still in January I started to
Never I am just yeah, I started to. Never mind, I am just...
I edit you, you're welcome.
I didn't know that either.
Oh wait, no, I did think I knew that you were
editing for broadcast.
For some reason, I just was like,
but I don't see you here.
You're not a trader anymore, Cole.
Well, I still deleted all the animation in the broadcast.
No!
Not since I've been back, this was when I left.
Well, speaking of animation,
and RTX, there will be some,
I believe Ruby volume nine news at RTX as well.
Those of you who are supposed to say that are not
I'm like, you said it.
They truth it it out.
Oh, do they? Okay.
They said there's gonna be some information.
There's a lot of Ruby things happening.
Big things are happening.
Man, big things.
Whoa, cool.
That's ominous.
I don't know if we can talk about this either,
but I guess it's pre-recorded.
The remember, whenever a bunch of some files got deleted
back in 636 on the show, and it was like,
someone deleted all the thing. It was like, someone deleted the, all the thing.
It was like, it's just cool saying,
I deleted the files, I was like, oh, it was you!
No, that wasn't me.
I deleted all the files on the broadcast computer.
Yeah, because we were,
When did you really?
Yeah, oh, I formatted the show.
No, I formatted the main broadcast,
because I had just moved to animation.
And it was when we filmed the patch. No to animation and it was when we filmed the patch.
No, no, it was when we filmed the patch, but it was when we the no.
We used the same hard drives to film on these black magic cameras.
And I was the only one who knew how to format them because after you recorded it, you would
have to manually go into the computer and format it.
And I had an export running or something running in the animation studio.
And whoever was editing or whoever was recording was like,
we need you to hurry and come and do this.
So I went and just right click format and then saw that I clicked the C drive instead of
any other drive.
And I went, I turned, I think it was like Tyler,
how I go, hey, I just erased everything in the computer.
I'm going to message Patrick.
I'm sorry.
I just walked away and I slacked Patrick. I was like, hey, I just erased everything on computer. I'm going to message Patrick. I'm sorry. It's like, I just walked into it.
And I slacked Patrick.
I was like, hey, I'm really sorry.
I deleted everything on computer.
I don't know what else to say.
Like, I just want to let you know as soon as possible.
I'll let myself out.
Yeah.
Yeah, there's not much you could really do at that point.
No, just tell them as soon as I think their tech
was able to like, do recovery or something.
But do you know, can we talk about that?
I don't know what you're talking about.
You remember it?
I remember it.
I remember it.
Yeah, but I don't know what you're talking about now.
Why are you bringing that up now?
Well, I don't know, because he's talking about deleting files.
And I was just like, it was just crazy.
Because there was like, oh, I thought this was RTX related.
Because you were talking about RTX and you were like,
I don't know if we could talk about this.
Something happened where some files were deleted.
It was like, yeah.
But I think they ended up getting recovered
or like, mostly recovered. Mostly recovered. But it was like, it was like a toy. It was like, yeah. But I think they ended up getting recovered or like, mostly recovered.
Mostly recovered.
I think it was like a toy.
It was like one of those things where it's like,
all right, who deleted the file?
It's like the thing where it's like the teacher goes like,
all right, someone has to own up to us.
If not, like everyone's gonna get punished.
It's like, it, it, it, it, it, it,
everyone's got to be in time.
A long time ago when we were still working
down in the buttoffis and they were just like four or five
of us, we used to, what was, I think we had gone to an event or something, we had a bunch working down in the buttoffis, and they were just like four or five of us. We used to, I think we had gone to an event
or something, we had a bunch of cash in the office,
and then we had to take, you know,
we were like, we're gonna go get lunch,
we were like, we're gonna take the cash, deposit it,
we deposited it at an ATM, I think, at the bank,
and then we had an eight lunch,
and then, you know, got a call from the bank
the next day that was like,
hey, just so you know, you wrote down on your deposit slip,
I'm gonna make up these numbers,
I don't remember what the number was.
You wrote down on your deposit slip
that you deposited $14,000, but it was actually $12,000.
And we were all like, someone took $2,000.
And everyone, like we all had to sit down
like in the living room of the apartment in Buda,
and we were like, listen, everyone has a key to this place.
We're all gonna go home at the end of the day today,
whoever took the $2,000, put it back.
Just bring it, leave it on this table in the morning.
When we see it there, there'll be no questions asked,
no further, whatever, whatever happened,
we don't care.
If it was a mistake, or you took whatever,
just as long as just bring it back to $2,000.
So, you know, it's really tense, everyone goes home,
we all come back the next morning, open the door,
there's no money on the table.
So what happened to you?
And we're all like, we're all like,
someone took that $2,000 and they fucking kept it.
And everyone's like, suspiciously,
eyeing each other and-
Are you all just miscount?
No, because we had, like, the process was one person counts it
and then another person counts it
And you compare the number and it was the same like the lock is secluded in a room question away from everyone
I'm starting to take the two thousand and like everyone was just like
Suspicious and like whispering like do you think it was so and so do you think so and then the bank called and they're like
Oh, yeah, we miscounted her to come so it was actually $14,000
We miscounted her to pass it. It was actually $14,000.
I was, man.
But it was a, I didn't do that.
I was gonna be like, that's why Bernie left.
That's where everybody took 500 or something.
Yeah.
I love the idea that y'all got into huge argument.
We're like, fuck you're like,
you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like,
you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like,
you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like,
you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like,
you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like,
you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like,
you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, ifsy, huh? Yeah, we just miscended it. There was actually the right,
your deposit slip was correct.
A bank error not in your favor.
God, that was,
I feel like I did not, my stomach.
Also, Jeff wants to leave every single video
on the RISD channel.
Yeah, he did remember your account.
And then it got recovered.
It did, I remember that,
because Jeff didn't come up to the,
what do you call that area and with the stairs.
He didn't come up there often,
but I remember he was up there in Matt's office and talking
and he was stressed and I was like something's wrong.
I think he'd like definitely where he like
select all to do something and then I could.
He'd delete and say yeah. Which now YouTube has some precautions in there. Yeah
Like not great back
I know I just say it's like maybe sometimes easy to delete a lot of things
I remember once also like in the old old days
You know before they had content ID on YouTube if someone had like re uploaded your video
You have to contact them with the offending URL
until they were able to take it down.
There was no automated way to do it.
So like one day again in the, in the beauty department,
I had to like try to contact YouTube
and figure out how to take down people
who were re-uploading our videos.
And their, their process at the time was,
just send us a fax with the URL
and we'll take it down.
And I was mad.
Cause I had found thousands.
Oh, I sure am.
Okay, it was like our first time going through and doing this.
So I faxed them like a couple hundred pages of URLs.
And like as the facts were still going through,
it was like a lot, they called me like,
okay, okay, never mind, just send a screen, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa I know she did. She probably had the facts to discourage people. Right.
Oh no, they didn't know who they were dealing with.
Yeah.
I'm still in content.
You know, like, got to protect your business.
Different time.
It was before, if I remember, I was before Google
that acquired them.
Probably, yeah.
If you like old stories like this,
I just want to recommend the Animal Podcast,
which we, Jeff and I just launched the other day.
You guys like premiered at number three
on comedy podcasts, Or something like that?
On Spotify, those things like number 12 podcasts overall.
Okay.
It's an incredibly niche podcast.
I can't recommend it to anybody.
I don't know why anyone listens.
But if you want to try it, it's A&M.
At the end of my podcast, it's all old stories.
We try to talk about what Austin was like in the 90s
and the early days of Rousseau.
I don't even think we've even talked about Rooster Teats really.
Oh, yeah, we have a little bit.
But it's like how we met and just like
what the city was like back then.
We just recorded.
We just like, film like off like on location summer.
Yeah, and we record at coffee shops around town.
That's cool.
Which is interesting because even going to different locations
helps us remember stories and things
that happened in that part of town.
On a lot of memories, like your pencils.
Yeah, except episode two, which we filmed in studio
because Eric says it was raining,
even though it wasn't raining outside.
I thought I remember hearing usually that,
memory is so location based,
which is why like if you get up and walk into a different room,
you can forget what you were,
or I guess if you go to a coffee shop
that you haven't been to in years,
you can be like, all these memories come flooding back.
Yeah, absolutely.
I thought of a memory of another deleted file that was really bad for me.
It was when I was a kid and it was breath of fire too.
And my mom, my brother wanted to borrow some games to take to his friends house.
It's like, no mom, they'll erase my save fight.
Like it's Wild West territory at this friends house.
Yeah.
It's not safe.
And she was like, let him take the video game.
Take it.
It comes back.
And I lost my breath of fire, breath of fire, save, which I was at the very end of the game.
And I was, when I was a kid, I was like,
I want to get to level 99 with everyone.
And so I hadn't beaten the game, but I was like,
just like grinding for whatever sake, because I was like,
you know, you've got a kid in your time.
Yeah, that's like the one game you bought that you have for a while.
Yeah, and so, and then I remember I was so mad at my brother.
And then my mom was like, she was like, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let me take it. And then, so I made my brother, I was so mad at my brother, and then my mom was like,
she was like, I'm sorry, I shouldn't love take it.
So I made my brother, I was like, I started a new game.
I was like, you have to grind my characters
anytime I want.
Like, that's, phrasing?
Yeah.
Grind my character.
You should've done that, your sister,
you have to go get me a new baseball.
Go find those actresses.
Well, then I was like, you have to level them up.
Whenever I like, he was like, it's like, all right.
God, get to work.
Yeah, get to work.
At one time I was at a sleep over at a friend's house.
I was, I must have been in elementary school.
And the one time, maybe you're asleep over.
Yeah.
Well, when you hear the story, you'll understand why.
He owned the Legend of Zelda on the NES, and I didn't.
So I was like, oh, like, this is a cool game.
I like, I really like playing this. So I started playing it and like, everyone went to sleep,
and I was like, okay, I'm gonna stay up all night and play the Legend of Zelda. And I stayed up
all night playing it. And like the next morning I went to show them like how far I'd gotten in the
game. Everyone was like, waking up, I'm like, oh, check it out. And I show them, they're like, oh,
that's really cool. My friends, like, you didn't delete my save, right?
I was like, no, no, no, it's still on there.
Because remember, it had three save slots.
So I restart the NES to show him, and all three slots are empty.
I don't know what happened, but my game was gone.
His game was gone.
Everything was gone.
I was like, I swear I didn't erase your game.
The battery.
Something happened.
The battery, Doc. The bad battery that internal battery right the internal battery
Like it was just terrifying. You know, it's like I didn't do that. I saw it. I was super careful
That's why it was the one
Sleepover. I had the exact same experience was all the I went to a friend's house and we're going through games and then
I'd never played an RPG or any you know that kind of game or even a game of the safe file before. And we did it. I was like, Oh, this is the coolest
game ever. And I stayed up all night playing and I, like, my friend had fallen asleep and
I just stayed up all night playing. Like, when you're a little kid, like, you're going
to stuff so cool. I remember, did you ever have, you mentioned Gameboy earlier, did you
ever have the moments where you're like leaving Game Boy on, but also,
because you're not at a safe point,
you're gonna do something else,
but you're also terrified that the battery's gonna run out.
Mm-hmm.
I know.
The first time I ever finished Super Mario Brothers on the NES,
like, of course I was a little kid, I was playing it.
Like, I was in the final castle, in Bowser's castle.
I was about to encounter him, and my mom was like,
hey, come on, we have to go to the post office.
And I was like, but I'm about to be,
the game's like, no, we have to go to the post office right now before the close.
And I was like, so like I paused it.
Oh, no.
I left the NES on, but turned the TV off.
I used to do that in the time.
Yeah.
My mom to the post office came back and turned the TV off.
It was still saved.
It was still there.
I was like, oh, thank God.
But you're going to say it died.
No, no, that's the first time I ever beat Super Mario Brothers.
I had to stop partway through.
We, me and my brother did that all.
It would be like, just, just, just, just pause it
and we'll just turn the TV off and she won't know that.
No one knows it.
Yeah.
And then it would be like, we'd go to the mall for like four hours
and then get back.
It's like, all right, we're still good.
We're good, we're good.
And then the one time it freezes, you're like, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, it was a little kid.
Me and a kid, I still remember just yeah like
Not having any responsibility and how like summers were just free time all the time doing whatever the hell you want
And then when you have a job, it's there is no summer summer was fun summer was summer can still be fun at RTX of it
So I first the third here in Austin
Yeah come celebrate RTX and my birthday.
Woo, do it.
It's no other reason.
I'm so bummed.
This could be the first RTX I miss.
I know.
Cool.
Have you talked about what you're going to be doing yet?
Or we've hinted, I mean, I've said before,
I'm moving to Japan.
I'm sure you ought to bring it up.
I'm sitting in a riddle.
Where am I going?
Where am I going, Teeheehee?
I don't know, the next part.
Yeah.
You'll be chasing the rising sun.
Oh.
Yeah, you're moving to Japan for a bit.
Yeah, the first day of class is July 4th.
So I'm like, I was trying to like, can I thread this needle at all?
Are you going to, do you think you're going to,
because I know some of the stuff is going to be streamed
and whatnot, um, to think you're going to like tune in to any RTX stuff?
I'm going to, oh, that's just a tune in. I don't know're gonna like tune in to any RTX stuff. I'm gonna, that's what's it tune in.
I don't know if I'll be able to just hop on any,
because we talked about like,
oh, is there like a, some people like,
we can pull you on an iPad and be like FaceTime,
but times difference is kind of,
14 hours, yeah, because it's,
when it's 10 a.m. here, it's midnight there.
And you're gonna be moving to a new country,
so it would be hard to be like,
let me jump on a live stream.
Exactly, I don't even know if I have my computer set up.
Yeah.
We had to reign a skully do that.
Remote podcast segment one time.
And even that was like, Courtney,
we had to do that super late here.
I think it was like 8 p.m.
I had to do like 7 a.m. early for her.
I've been trying to fit, I've been like,
slow-key doing math and I'm like,
okay, if I want to stream still,
I want to stream friends, how do I,
how do I do this?
Yeah, like how can you still play among us with us? I think to stream still, I want to stream friends. How do I, how do I, how do I, how do I, how do I, how do I, how do I, how do I, how do I, how do you still play among us with us?
I think so.
Well, I'm planning it out.
If, if people start at six, then that means that I'm up at like, what, that four a.m.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, because I know the, the lobby that Alfredo has on Saturdays is five to eight p.m.
Central.
Yeah.
So that would be, yeah, like, which that's a Sunday for me so I can, you could always do.
Yeah.
But, but, uh, we'll have to find some time
And then it's and then it's cross my fingers hoping that because there's two so like I'm going over for a language school and
There's two blocks that are they're taught it's 8 a.m. That they're or 4 p.m. There and it's four hour classes or a
P more one p.m. Okay, okay, so then it would be if that 1 p.m. then I'm like, it's perfect.
Yeah.
I get the best of both worlds,
but if it's 8 a.m. then I'm like, okay.
Yeah, that's really cool.
I'm jealous.
It seems like it's gonna be such a like a crazy adventure
to understand.
I'm right now I'm so nervous about getting
the housing stuff figured out,
just because it's hard for foreigners to get stuff over there.
Are you like renting an apartment? Yeah. Wow. because it's hard for foreigners to get stuff over there.
You're like renting an apartment? Yeah, wow.
I feel like there's several YouTube channels
of people who live in a Germanicist
like the expat experience of doing that.
And there's one who sent it to me.
Someone sent it to me the other day.
Was it might have been Bener.
It's someone here sent me one of those channels
where it's been a channel like that for years
or like an ex-pat living in Japan.
But he's starting a new channel
because he decided to get a pilot license in Japan.
So it's like, oh yeah.
Yeah.
It's already crazy getting a car license over there.
You have to have, in order to get a car license,
like you have to have a parking spot at your work
and a parking spot at your house already live,
an oracle apply for a driver's license, I think.
Oh my God.
It feels like it's such a chicken before the egg.
Well, if you don't have anywhere to park,
you shouldn't get a car.
And I see it's responsible.
Yeah, it's a good public transportation.
You don't need a car.
Which they do, right?
It's so good.
You know, it's the same thing with like, I don't know,
like what I feel like guns, the way guns should be,
like if you don't have a, you know,
if you need, if you're gonna go hunting and have to do,
I think you should look.
I just think there needs to be background checks
and proper regulations in place.
But yeah, kind of stuff.
I think we all agree on that.
But there's also a social utility in that,
where it's like it helps
for it encourages people to use public transportation,
which then also makes sense of my experience.
And give me the environment.
Yeah, and it's better for the environment.
The environment, it is interesting though,
because like Japanese automakers are like,
why are you not buying our car?
Are they expensive?
And it would be difficult. It's difficult. The train gets you everywhere you want to go. Japanese auto-bakers are like, why are you not buying our car? Are they expensive? And what about this?
It's difficult.
It's difficult.
The train gets you everywhere you want to go.
I love it.
I was just talking about this with Kayla the other day.
We wish the US had a better train system because her and I both love the train.
If my day was like entirely commute on train, I would be so happy.
Or if I had to go to a different state or city, whatever, and I could take on train. I would be so happy. Or if I had to go to a different state or city
whatever and I could take the train,
I would gladly go on like an exponentially longer trip
on the train.
If anything, all we have is the round rock express here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well like for she,
most of the lot of trains I've done in Europe
because you can just like,
be in another country and you don't have to worry about airports.
Right, yeah.
I'm just like hop on.
There's also something to be said about,
I'm totally on board with you guys.
I wish that we had it,
but it's also something to be said
for the scale of where we live.
Yeah, yeah.
Like living in the middle of Texas.
Sure.
Sucks, like yeah.
It's hundreds of miles in every direction to go to a different state
or to do anything.
But it's great if like you don't wanna dry
or you don't want to or you can't drive somewhere,
or if you don't like flying,
the train is like comfortable, it's safe,
it's like just the bad,
in my opinion, the best form of transportation.
Absolutely, like, kind of, I understand
like where you were saying like kind of devil's that, I get point is that like, I've taken the train form of transportation. Absolutely. I kind of, I understand where we were saying, kind of devil's advocate point is that like,
I've taken the train from Dallas to here
and there's so many stops.
But it's like, okay, we're gonna drive,
we're gonna do three hours and we stop.
And we gotta wait here in a wakeover a little bit.
Well, because we don't have a great.
Yeah, if we had like more of a high speed or more.
They are building high speed.
Or like, yeah, suppresses.
Are they actually, I know they've talked about it
for a connected world. Like San Antonio Austin, Dallas, Houston.
I, yeah.
Maybe they are, but I know at least I heard like
continuing development towards them.
Like I would love to take the train to LA
from here, like that would be.
If it was like a day, I think you can technically,
I think it takes over two days
and there's like transfers and stuff like that,
which is a pain in the ass.
But if there's just a straight shot from like here to LA,
that was like a day trip.
What about the stop is like a Pandalis or Houston?
I would totally do.
It would be like connecting to a plane.
Yeah, why not?
Also, just to not completely derail this conversation,
Eric texts it or.
Oh wait, that was a good pun.
It was a derail.
I didn't even notice that.
Eric said it was raining.
It was not.
It was damp.
It had rained the day before, and it was damp,
but it was not actually raining.
All right, well, I know it's a little worried
about how we should wrap up.
Because it's more of a day.
It's more of a day.
It's not the long, real day.
Not quite.
This is going out my way.
Are you going for Memorial Day?
So you're not going to be in Longview.
Oh, I was going for Memorial Day.
That's the week after.
Oh, you lied to everyone?
I thought we were doing this for Memorial Day.
No, we're doing this for next week because there's going to be something filming in here.
Oh, I thought it was Memorial Day pre-record.
I was like, man, we're really pre-recording early.
We're not that ahead of it.
Anyway, we're going to miss you, Cole.
Yeah, I'm gonna miss you too
Yeah, I mean I wanted to come on to like first off. Thank y'all for being good friends the entire time
But also this is your goodbye. Yeah, that's my last last party
We're gonna do something like a going away thing with like please do
Yeah, but I like I was gonna get to say to buy the the fans the the RT fans who have accepted me
Welcome here
So they do like a little video for you at RTX?
Oh, gone but not forgotten.
High call.
It's a memorial.
We'll get everyone to say hi on the ARCHPACES panel.
I guess this Friday, it'll go on last day.
Oh my god.
I didn't know either.
Eric told me about it the other day.
I was thinking of taking the whole month of June off.
Yeah, it did just like so much to do.
Sure.
And I was like, you're moving to a new country.
Yeah, I was like, I was like, oh, maybe I can make it all the way to like June 17th, but it did just like so much to do and I was like moving to a new country. Yeah, I was like I was like
Oh, maybe I can make it all the way to like June 17th, but it was just like pushing it
There's no way I mean I might need to be on a plane June 17th
So if it like I at this point right now I'm trying to figure out what I need to do with my CoE to get my visa
So oh my god. Yeah, take that time. Yeah, all right. Well, thank you cool
Oh, good luck. Thanks ever Michael? No. Good luck.
Thanks everyone for watching.
We'll see you all next time.
Good bye. Do you like apples?
