What is this, episode 12? Yes, you are correct, it is episode 12. Wow, that is pretty crazy stuff, man, episode 12, I didn't think we'd make it that far. No, I thought we'd stop at 10.
Starting point is 00:00:54 And yeah, so basically, before we get into today's episode, let me just reiterate the fact that finally, after many months of me promising this, Finally, after many months of me promising this, SuperMegaCast is finally on iTunes. You can go get it on the podcast app. You can go get it on iTunes on your computer. And it is also on Google Play Music for all you Android users. So now, let's get a round of applause for that. Well, good job to Matt, but mainly Connor. Yeah, our tech guy, Connor.
Starting point is 00:01:24 He's the guy that really helped us out. He's a little lifesaver. But I don't think I deserve a round of applause because You had so long to Fucking do this I could have put it on After like the first week of the podcast being out And it kind of took me Like 12 well not even 12 Weeks because it used to be like
Starting point is 00:01:39 We would number it because you know the Podcast would be like Episode 1 was one week into the channel up so two was two weeks But then when we took the little hiatus, so this is really like 16 weeks. Yeah. Yeah, well fuck But anyway guys welcome to super mega cast we got some we got some fun topics for you today That we have definitely not planned out ahead of time these are the topics we we had planned for this episode of the podcast. So the first topic we are going to talk about. What's the topic, Ryan?
Starting point is 00:02:08 The topic I have written right down in front of me that I have planned for this very podcast is we are going to talk about Pokemon Go and how I think it's honestly just kind of like hitting on a little decline for me. I'm going to be honest. I'm gonna be honest. Dude, I was honestly thinking the exact same thing as we were walking back from dinner tonight and I didn't bring it up. I haven't checked the app all day I don't believe. I think it's been
Starting point is 00:02:35 two days for me. Damn. And honestly, I think, here's the big thing about it. I think one of the big things that turned me off from Pokemon Go before we get into the actual gameplay factors I'm just gonna say it is you know it's a it's a cool game for sure but it's such a rushed game that there's so many bugs that they still haven't fixed that just you know like if i get a cool pokemon like in our area 51 video you have no idea how frustrating it was when a pikachu appears and i throw the pokeball and then it freezes, and then I
Starting point is 00:03:05 reopen the app, and it's gone, and the servers crash. I was like, I'm ready to die now. That was like the worst moment of my life. It's also just grading, because, okay, so let me put it this way. What level are you, Matt? I'm 15 right now, and I'm having a real hard time leveling up. Use those lucky eggs, and put on a lure at the same time or a
Starting point is 00:03:27 incense yeah but um so what was I gonna say about Pokemon Go it's grading oh yeah this is grading to me so what level are you again I'm 15 I'm level 19 and you your friend who visited us for
Starting point is 00:03:44 a little while he was level what like for a little while, he was level what? Like 9? No, no, no, no. He was level 6 or 7 at the time. 6 or 7. And we're going down the alleyway and we see a Charmeleon, dude. Yeah. I was like, holy shit, a Charmeleon. I've never seen something like that in the game.
Starting point is 00:04:00 I have 24 Charmander candies, so this would be like, oh, I could save the candies to evolve into a charizard you don't have to waste them yeah so i'm like i'm all giddy matt's all giddy his friends all giddy and uh we uh so we all get in like a little triangle and we find the charmillion and we start catching it we have i have a bit of trouble even though I'm using my berries or the candies or whatever they are, and throwing my grape balls. Yeah. And I guess you're doing the same thing.
Starting point is 00:04:30 I'm doing the exact same thing. I'm only using grape balls. And you're feeding those berries. I gave it berries. And he's charmed, okay? Oh, yeah. And you would think, you know, we're high enough level trainers. We are using, you know, not the basic pokeballs and we we're using something
Starting point is 00:04:46 to charm the pokemon it's strategic playing of the game the type of gameplay that you expected it to want you to do exactly but what happens ryan uh we don't catch it it runs away on both of our accounts but christian who uses no berries he uses a regular pokeball manages to catch it in his what it was in the first three tries. I think it was the second try. He just snags it. And he's like level six in the game. And I was just like, are you fucking kidding?
Starting point is 00:05:12 And that's happened to me a lot, honestly. Like I've been around people and that type of stuff happens where I'm a higher level and I use those tactics. And it seems like it's not helping at all. And like the people that are just starting out, it's almost like the game's allowing them to catch pokemon to get them hooked and then it's wasting our pokeballs when we get a certain level so we have to use real money to buy them that's a little interesting conspiracy i didn't think of it that way that conspiracy is probably not correct i don't i don't feel like i don't know they're that malicious but i do feel like something's gotta something's gotta give matt uh just great you and i are i mean come on that's like strategic gameplay the most strategic but I do feel like something's gotta give, Matt.
Starting point is 00:05:47 You and I are, I mean, come on. That's strategic gameplay, the most strategic gameplay you could at least do in this type of game. Lay out a berry, throw out a great ball, or an ultra whatever master ball, whatever your level 20, blah, blah, blah. I know there's a higher level Pokeball. What I'm saying is we actually use some sort of strategy to try to charm it and then catch it while a level 7 just whoop.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Yeah, and I've found myself previously in the game, like, you'll be catching stuff and I'll just use a regular Pokeball and get in on my first try. Like, even if it's a really high level Pokemon, I can just throw a regular Pokeball and then whoop, and it gets it. And I'm like, okay. So it seems like it doesn't, like they're the exact same thing. Because I have not seen a single instance. And I've been playing the game a lot and I haven't seen a single instance where it seems like the Great Ball catches a Pokemon better than a regular Pokeball. Or the berries have actually worked. Because things still run when I give them berries. So what's the point?
Starting point is 00:06:42 It's like, yeah, I get it. It's like, oh, it lessens the chances of it of it run of it running away but it's still I don't know it just seems like it it's just all kind of random and then the items are kind of a gimmick I don't know and we're getting just to the point where we're not really catching any new Pokemon the reason why it's like it's shit when something like that runs away is like you know that's that's the newest Pokemon we're not gonna see that again yeah we're not gonna see that again probably for a long time i don't know maybe weeks months i don't know and it's like you know we're at the point where we've got all the pokemon in our area we really have honestly we're almost up to like 80 in our pokedexes so it's like i know people have a lot of other pokemon but what i'm
Starting point is 00:07:19 saying is like we're getting to the point where like when we play we rarely see anything new because not even new shadows yeah we drive and i drive around a lot i drive around i drive around to a lot of places around los angeles including like you know santa monica area yeah so it's like you know um we're kind of reaching this point where i think we're starting to really catch most of the uh we've caught most of the common to like mid-rare pokemon that are in the the Los Angeles area So it's like you know Every time I open the app what it does is First of all it has a 50% chance of
Starting point is 00:07:50 Just crashing on me every time I open it and then the other 50% of the time takes forever to load And then it drains the hell Out of my phone really fast and uses my Data so it's like you know if I'm not catching anything New why am I going to keep playing if it's just going to crash And drain my battery Yeah but that's our little rant about pokemon go um mainly like the biggest
Starting point is 00:08:08 thing that pisses me off about it is that it was just a rushed game and and there's so many bugs with it that you know you want to get into rants about gaming huh oh i don't i don't know man but wait wait wait let me tell you something that's gonna piss you off real quick i was gonna i was gonna mention uh okay wait wait just just one last thing about Pokemon Go. You know the Pokemon Go Plus? What? The little wrist thing. They delayed it until September.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Come on! How hard is it to make? I've seen... Why is it being delayed until September? It's almost unnecessary. It's just a little piece of wearable technology. Like, I feel like it's been done for months. I don't think it's gonna be, like, of too high quality, either. No, of course
Starting point is 00:08:50 not. It's just gonna be a little plastic gizmo that you wear, and then it'll blink and vibrate when there's a Pokemon nearby. But anyway, guys, that's just our rant about Pokemon Go. Well, speaking of video game rants, what have we been playing quite a bit?
Starting point is 00:09:06 Oh, we have been in the past week or so, Ryan and I have gotten ourselves hooked on a little Mario Kart. Mario Kart 8 for the Wii U. To be exact. I don't know, I just you were like, hey, let's just play some Mario Kart. So we
Starting point is 00:09:21 just finally sat down and did it. You've been asking for a few months probably. i don't know i just like i was in our living room when i looked at our like game our small game collection i was like wait a second i forgot we have mario kart and we had we had uh we had our buddy uh come and visit our buddy christian and we're like hey we have three people let's play some mario kart and then we quickly fell into that hole of uh you know like when you pick up a game every few months and you just get sucked into it. Yeah. But you said you were going to go on a rant.
Starting point is 00:09:50 What's this rant about Mario Kart? I'm just, I don't know. Okay, one of the things, we played with Chris. We did play with Chris. Oni. Oni. And he hates the game. He says the steering is awful.
Starting point is 00:10:03 He bitches about it so much. He bitches. I don't understand. He's such a little bitch boy. The steering feels steering is awful. He bitches about it so much. He bitches. I don't understand. He's such a little bitch boy. The steering feels fine. You just have to get used to it. He's like. It's not even like you have to get used to it because it's bad.
Starting point is 00:10:11 It's just you have to learn how to drift and shit. I've never, I've never played a driving game where the steering is this shit. It's like, Chris, what are you talking about, dude? It's Mario Kart. Like, no one complains about that. But it's funny because like He would consistently get like 10th, 11th place in Mario Kart And would just sit there and complain the whole time
Starting point is 00:10:28 I love Chris It took me a while to get used to the controls of Mario Kart Like the drifting Like it took a while to be familiar 150cc on every map Well he was comparing it to like Need for Speed And GTA and stuff And it's like you can't compare Mario Kart to those driving games
Starting point is 00:10:43 GTA 4's uh driving was like pandas really bad I remember because everything felt like you were driving a boat yeah well I I he's like he's like in other driving games when I hit the uh you know when I turn it turns instantly well Mario Kart you know of course doesn't do that because it doesn't do that in real life but also it's stats to each cart and each player. You've got to learn the art of drifting in Mario Kart. The art of drifting and setting up a nice vehicle and player combination. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:12 I mean, you've got to get the wheels and the kart right and the player. Like, whether it's a small, medium, large player or they have the different karts. They have the, you know, the motorcycles and the cars. And they have so many different types of wheels and also the gliding. Some of the gliders change stuff in the cars. They have so many different types of wheels. And also the gliding. Some of the gliders change stuff in the stats. I usually go for the Yoshi bike, the small red wheels, and the Zelda kite thing. Helion kite. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:38 And I'm either Lemmy or Link. I just got into Link, actually. Yeah, because we just bought the new DLC for Mario Kart 8, and it is fantastic. Well, it's not really new DLC. It's old. But I usually, my go-to character has always been Yoshi. But ever since I bought the DLC, it's Isabelle from Animal Crossing because I love Animal Crossing. And I like Isabelle's character design and colors.

Starting point is 00:13:18 Probably because it wasn't like – I didn't get into it when I was young. Is it like a big thing of it? Is it a nostalgia factor? Yeah, I mean that's a big factor for me at least. But I don't get into it when I was young. Is it like a big thing of it? Is it a nostalgia factor? Yeah, I mean, that's a big factor for me at least. But I don't know, dude, just by itself. If I picked up Animal Crossing nowadays and I had never played it before, I mean, it might take a little bit for me to get into
Starting point is 00:13:33 because it's a little different, but it's, I don't know, dude, it's therapeutic. It's very relaxing. It's very... What was that other game that was similar to like... Harvest Moon? It was Harvest Moon, but Harvest Moon's clone because you were playing that for a little bit.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Oh, Stardew Valley? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Stardew Valley was a really fun game. It kind of just disappeared out of nowhere, though. It was like, it blew up and it was really popular. And then just... When I talk to people that play the game, they always were like, yeah, it was just very relaxing.
Starting point is 00:13:56 It's just like... Animal Crossing or Stardew Valley? Stardew Valley. Oh, it's super relaxing. I know Animal Crossing is relaxing because I played on an airplane. Yeah, well... On my DS. That's the only time I played it. played it for like uh like five hours straight on my ds
Starting point is 00:14:10 yeah it well animal crossing is one of those games it's the type of game that you would pick it up for like 15 minutes a day you just play a little bit every day check in do some stuff and then put it down and then come back to it the next day but speaking of stardew valley we actually that was one of our first playthroughs on our channel that we actually ended up scrapping because of, that was back in the time we were first getting into recording games. And little Matt here wasn't very good at messing with recording settings and kind of goofed up like three episodes in a row. I remember some of the original jokes from that episode. And that's like months back. It was actually pretty funny.
Starting point is 00:14:45 We had a lot of religious jokes because our character was Jesus. Jesus H. Christ was our character, and we made him look like Jesus. And what was that? Was it Jew Farm or something? Yeah. Yeah. Because he was the king of the Jews. He was the king of the Jews, no doubt.
Starting point is 00:14:59 But I wouldn't mind way in the future. I don't know. There's that weird timing where it's like if we played Stardew valley right now it would just seem like we're playing it late it's like this weird unspoken like timing rule where it's like you got to wait until it's like completely gone and then it's like you're but it's like you're bringing it back instead of just riding on it late you know i'm talking about yeah so i i wouldn't be opposed in the future doing a stardew valley uh playthrough it's a really fun game a lot of like advanced games and gamecube games and playstation playstation 2 you know all the old console games that's why they work so well is because they're so old that's not like a popular thing yeah so
Starting point is 00:15:33 like i mean it is kind of a popular thing to play them i guess in the let's play community in a way because even uh jack started playing some yeah he played he started playing uh spyro i believe it's a big nostalgia thing too because people have uh a lot of people have forgotten about those games so it's like uh then when they see someone else playing then they're like oh i remember that game so when they might go back in and you know and watch it and it's also just this there are so many video games out there i want to go back to though i want to like there's so many games i want to go back to and i want to use this channel as like a portal like to make me go back to those games because if oh yeah absolutely like i'm just normal everyday ryan i'm just like oh i could buy those games then i'd have to buy the setup for it i'd have to
Starting point is 00:16:14 probably search for the game or whatever but it's like if this is the job that i have tasked myself to do then why not just fucking make that the excuse and just go out of my way. And enjoy it and get the games you want to get. I want to play like Destroy All Humans. Yes. I love that game, dude. I want to play Jaws Unleashed. I got to play, oh, what's, I need to play, oh, what's that N64 game? Snowboard Kids.
Starting point is 00:16:36 That's a bit, sorry. Snowboard Kids. That's just. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Snowboard Kids. It's such like a throwback to me and my cousin Connor. We'll play all that stuff. We played snowboard
Starting point is 00:16:45 kids so much it was so much fucking fun man do you have games like that like you just you go back and it just you you feel it like you were oh yeah time and you're like oh my god it just feels good you're like just sitting in just good times yeah well that's actually how the original animal crossing for gamecube is which i've seen a lot of people in the comments say they want us to play that so maybe down the road we'll do like a slow burning playthrough of us building a little village in Animal Crossing. When you play Animal Crossing, what do you experience? What does it take you back to? It takes me back to this weird phase when I was growing up.
Starting point is 00:17:17 I don't know. It was this weird, really nostalgic comfort that I can't really put into words. It's not like anything else but but it's this strange nostalgia that when i hear the music when i see the characters when i you know when i start playing the game i i feel this like this very just pure happiness i guess yeah because well it's a good game in my opinion but mainly i feel that because of because of the emotions that it brought me you know back in the day when i first played it and then um you know I feel that because of the emotions that it brought me back in the day when I first played it. And then I feel that stuff again.
Starting point is 00:17:49 It's the same way with The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening for Game Boy Color. That is a game that when I play it, it almost makes me want to cry. And that sounds really stupid, but it's like there are certain games in my life that when I play them, it makes me feel like I want to cry. Not like because I'm sad, but because it strikes this weird like nostalgia chord that's like the type of nostalgia that just makes you like wish you could go back there. And you feel it again when you play those games. I feel like it's almost like a sad thing because it's like I know for a fact I enjoyed games more when I was a kid. And I still love them them I love them right now but I know like I had this other kind of amusement and adoration for them when I was younger and I
Starting point is 00:18:33 think because it's like it's all I did it's it's like I would come home from school and I would play video games where I played split screen video games with my friends and when you're younger you don't have all this shit that you've been through or shit that you know that you're gonna have to go through because you're not so fucking cynical and i just miss like back in the day i just used to sit on my floor and like play war of the monsters on my playstation 2 and just like be in like look at the character screen and be like oh that character looks cool i want to unlock him and looking and trying to looking up guides on like how do i get this character oh yeah and shit like that like um when you used to want to work to get through the game instead of like i don't know i've played a lot of games i've played a lot of games recently single player that just like
Starting point is 00:19:13 it's a it's a slodge to get through it's just cut scene after cut scene after like setup after setup and it's just kind of boring after a while and i don't know when i was younger games were also harder because i guess like i didn't think as I do now as an adult, like I can think more strategically, if that makes sense. Yeah. Well, that's also like why, why kids play games for so many hours. Cause they get, they get stuck on something. They, you know, they, they really want to work through it. Very stubborn. I know. But, but I think the biggest thing, the biggest nostalgia thing about games for me is the music like when when i hear the music from games that i used to love it just takes me back and it like oh it's crazy the way it feels
Starting point is 00:19:51 i love i love listening to music from games that i used to love um and like it's great when you know when you really love um music from a game and that's one of the reasons i love animal crossing yeah because the music in animal crossing is fantastic. Like, it is amazing. Same with Katamari Damacy. Katamari Damacy. You've been playing the clicker game of that. Not so much anymore. I kind of got bored of it.
Starting point is 00:20:13 But it's a cool little game you should check out. However, the music in Katamari Damacy, fucking fantastic. But, like, I don't know. There's just something about video game music that is so, like, charming to me. That's why I love playing through Donkey Kong Country again. I love't know. There's just something about video game music that is so like charming to me. That's why I love playing through Donkey Kong Country again. I love this. I love the soundtrack. I love all the sound effects and everything.
Starting point is 00:20:30 I just love the art style. Like I played Donkey Kong Country 2 and I and I kind of ranted about you over my vacation of why I was like, oh, this is I don't like things that they changed from the first one. Yeah. And I just have to go back to the first one. And it's maybe if I played the second one when I was younger, I defend it more. But because the first one is just so just have to go back to the first one and it's maybe if i played the second one when i was younger i'd defend it more but because the first one is just so just like it's perfect to me but the second one is is different from what you remembered so yeah maybe if you did play it when you were younger it would be different but the saves are still annoying like
Starting point is 00:20:56 collecting the fucking tokens and shit that's stupid i don't like it i actually just bought uh donkey kong country for the game boy Advance because I recently ordered an old Game Boy Advance online because I want to try to mess around with it, see if I can paint it or add a backlight. Have fun, see if you can beat it. Yeah, but I got a couple games. I got Donkey Kong. I got WarioWare Twisted, which is a fantastic Game Boy Advance game. Any WarioWare game is super fun. I only played the one for the DS.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Oh, that's a really good one. The one for Wii is probably my favorite, WarioW moves it is play that we should definitely play it it's got really fun multiplayer it's a i remember the reason i got that game was because i had this we game way back in the day called elebits which i was like in love with really cool game another one of those nostalgic games for me but my um next door neighbor who was a couple years older than me was like hey can i borrow that game i was like yeah sure you can have it for a few days and he drove away and then he got into like a terrible car accident with the game in his car and then later he's like yeah i don't the game is gone after the car accident and i was like oh what do you mean it's gone he's like it's just gone i'm
Starting point is 00:21:58 like okay so somebody's like here i'll give you this really weird game in in exchange so when he gave me where are you where and i was like, and I was like, what is this? So then I played it and I was like, okay, okay, I can, I can deal with this. It's WarioWare. That's a really weird reason why I got that game, but it is a super cool game. The whole WarioWare series. I, the mini game, games that I played a lot where I bought the Raving Rabbid games for the Wii.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Ah, I had that for Wii too, like the very first Raving Rabbids game. I love playing with friends and shit. That was just really fun. I loved the whole Rayman series way back in the way back in the day, like Rayman 2. There's the ones for the N64 I think that I played. Yeah. Which was really fun and creepy. Everything like
Starting point is 00:22:39 polygonal was very creepy to me. Yeah, that's why the 3D Legend of Zelda games were kind of creepy. The moon in Majora's Mask is terrifying because, I don't know, it's just like
Starting point is 00:22:51 the less detail in it kind of makes it creepier than when they redesigned Majora's Mask for the 3DS. I feel like the moon lost a little bit of its creepiness because some of the creepiness
Starting point is 00:23:02 came from that low frame rate, polygonal, just creepy face staring at you. Did you ever play Majora's Mask? I always watched my cousin play it. I usually just always watched him play games. I watched him play Luigi's Mansion. And when I talk about like I like because he always had the Super Nintendo or like the GameCube before I did or like I would get it.
Starting point is 00:23:22 But smart little bastard. Yeah. Or like the thing is, maybe I did or like I would get it but smug little bastard yeah or like the thing is maybe I got him before him I think I actually got him before him but like he got all the right games and I was always like looking for cool games to buy and I just never found the right one and then I watched him play and I it was like weird I guess it's why people enjoy let's plays it was cool just to like sit back relax and watch him complete it because I knew he was gonna beat it I didn't know what I would be doing in the game i knew he was gonna beat it i didn't know
Starting point is 00:23:45 what i would be doing in the game but if he was in the middle of it i'm like oh this is can i want to watch you beat this boss because he described bosses to me and i just asked him to like beat bosses and i know i probably wouldn't be able to do it because i didn't play the game before he's like yeah i know how to beat this boss and he'd do it and i'd be like whoa that's so cool because i got to see something that i probably wouldn't have had the time or patience to do myself. And I would just get to see him do it. And I think I really, really fucking enjoyed like kind of bonding in that sense in that way with him. And then, of course, split screen came in when like Halo and all that started becoming popular.
Starting point is 00:24:20 It was like, whoa. Yeah. What was I'm trying to think of like when my first game was. Do you know what your first game was? My first video game of all time? Yeah. What was, I'm trying to think of like what my first game was. Do you know what your first game was? My first video game of all time? Yeah. It's definitely Pokemon. Yeah? It's definitely Pokemon.
Starting point is 00:24:34 Yeah. My first, I'm trying to decide whether it was Pokemon or the arcade system at the YMCA that had Super Mario, the original Super Mario Brothers on it. There's a place in Santa Monica that has like an original Super Mario Bros. You said that recently I did Yeah, but it but it's it's pretty cool. It's like The picture on the side is actually like hand-painted so mm-hmm But yeah, um my sister had a Game Boy Color when I was young and I used to play on that So I don't know if that counts as like my first game, but it would be Pokemon crystal
Starting point is 00:25:04 I think. No, Pokemon Silver, not Crystal. Yeah, Pokemon Silver. And then, oh my god, dude. When I was a really, when I was a little kid, my dad got, like, a computer for the house, and he, there was this game called Bugdom. Wow. Have you ever heard of that? Oh, never mind.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Now I think I know my first game now that you mentioned the computer yeah i i wasn't thinking about that it's definitely this game called bugdom for me which is this really like i don't know it's really cheap 3d game where you play it as like a like a roly-poly and this massive like bug kingdom and you have to go save the princess or one of those typical game things but it's really fun yeah one of my first games was the windows uh pinball game oh i want to play that is there a site where i can play that yeah let's do let's play that of the fucking windows sound effects it's like it's just yeah i'm like oh i love it oh dude what about uh did you ever play math blaster was that this thing that they gave up for school uh i think i think some but it was like yeah yeah i think so no the
Starting point is 00:26:06 one they gave out at school that was clue finders did you ever play clue finders yeah where it was like it had like the little floating like computer thing and it was like a team of kids fun i was like dude i loved them video games they weren't fun i didn't want to solve puzzles i wanted to just have fun and do shit and i and i had what other like of those computer games i had reader rabbit i had um reader i remember reader rabbit i fucking there was one reader rabbit game that's really nostalgic to me i didn't mind reader rabbit was all right i can't find it though i've searched so far and wide to try to find this game uh maybe you guys can help me it was like basically it was like a bunch of different levels or different like rooms and each one was for a different letter of
Starting point is 00:26:44 the alphabet and it had different letter of the alphabet. And it had different things of that letter you could click on. But it was so nostalgic to me. And then there was, there was something. There would be an apple in A. Yeah. And I remember G had grapes and they were like on a tree and you click it and he would like eat one and be like grapes. The picture of your mom you gloss over.
Starting point is 00:27:00 It's just called anal Ann. God damn it, Ryan. Yeah. But like she's very anal why is that an adjective like why is that like a commonly used adjective like ah you're so anal it's like you think like in this day and age when that word is such a
Starting point is 00:27:14 commonly used word and that negative connotation that people wouldn't use it at all like it'd be a very like you know anal come first before anal yes like no like anal as in ass came first because it's a part of the body. So, anal came first. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Yeah. I feel like the word anal, the adjective, is supposed to be not pronounced the same as, like, anus. Like, that one. I think it should be, like, anal or something. Could be. I don't know. But I feel like people just.
Starting point is 00:27:41 I think it's pronounced anal. Is it? I don't know. Because you have some. Like, you know the phrases, like, what's he have? pronounced anal. Is it? I don't know. Because you have some... You know the phrase is like... What's he have? A stick up his ass? Or whatever they say?
Starting point is 00:27:50 Oh. Wait, wait, wait. Maybe it literally... Is it literally the exact same word? Like it means the same thing? Yeah, maybe. No, but I hear it in like professional context. You have a stick up your ass, you anal fucker.
Starting point is 00:28:03 That's my new username. Anal fucker. The anal fucker. That's me. The anal fucker that's my new username anal fucker the anal fucker that's me the anal fucker your high school aol username just fucking matt the anal fucker 90 what 5 96 actually and then right now the people listen like i was born in 96 he's my age oh the 14 year old hold on a second ryan can we uh can we talk about chris chan no oh god it makes me cringe i don't want to think about that shit dude it's so good can we just talk about it a little bit can we address it oh man you can it just makes me uncomfortable all right so i don't some of you Are we going to talk about what the thing? I'll briefly go into it just a little bit.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Nobody wants to hear this shit. It's disgusting. Are you sure? It's, if you think that people would want to hear you talk about Chris Chan's endeavors. No, no, no, wait, wait, wait. Don't. Endeavors. Okay.
Starting point is 00:28:59 His gooch endeavors. Yeah. Then, then sure. Ryan, you know, you know that now because you've prefaced it like that, everyone's like, I gotta hear it. I gotta hear it. They can go read about it. Well, then they're going to look it up and then they're going to go see the pictures.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Well, you can get. I'm trying to save them from that. You can get Eternal Eclipse or whatever his name to make a fucking like ASMR video about it. What's his name? A femoral rift? Yeah, him. Eternal Eclipse.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Close enough. Same thing. Yeah, but like, so basically so basically um there's a guy named chris chan he makes like sonic family on vacation to the 20s sorry oh oh fuck uh-oh oh sorry guy named chris chan um a little bit of a special dude he makes sonic stuff uh but basically um recently he he uh he got a piercing in his gooch. For those of you who don't know what a gooch is, for some reason, it's the space between your balls and your asshole. He got a piercing there because he said that it's where his clit would be if he were a girl.
Starting point is 00:29:56 And he wants to feed his lesbian soul because he believes he's a lesbian trapped in a man's body. So, long story short, he gets this piercing and then unp-pierces it and then re-pierces it or something like that. Well, of course, you know, this thing becomes like a disgusting gash and becomes infected and like heals itself. So it's like this really gross like wound. So what does he think? He thinks that he's growing a vagina. He thinks that it's his lesbian soul inside of him like growing a vagina. He thinks that he's growing a vagina.
Starting point is 00:30:24 He thinks that it's his lesbian soul inside of him, like, growing a vagina. And he thinks because he watched some, like, high-frequency videos, it, like, made his body grow a vagina through, like, subliminal messaging or something. So, basically, that's where it is now. He's posting pictures of it on Facebook and stuff. And, basically, it's going to get really fucking infected. Why are you so interested in this shit? It's funny to me, dude. Why is it funny? It's just gross and stupid.
Starting point is 00:30:46 Because this dude is literally like, what is wrong with him? He's just dumb. I know, but he's going to die. He's going to die because it's going to get infected and he refuses to get medical help. So he's a dumbass. People die all the time. But he's going to die because he thinks he has a vagina. Just because he's being weird about it, we're going to give him a round of applause.
Starting point is 00:31:06 A round of applause for your vagina, Chris. Anyway, that's all you guys need to know about Chris Chan. Go look up pictures of his vagina. That's all they need to know. That's pretty much everything about him. That's all he wants to be known for. His vagina, which is really just a massive gash in his gooch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:23 God. Ew. That sounds like a band sounds like a band like gooch gash oh god damn it okay well what do you want to talk about let's move on no just sorry i'm like visibly visibly distraught you're you're really you're rubbing your eyes you're just like i see it in your face it's just you wanted to see the picture i know well i showed you at first i did it i'm like okay go ahead and show me and you showed me i'm like ew yeah it's fucking gross because it's just a wound that needs to be healed i don't know it kind of does look like a vagina a little bit no a little bit
Starting point is 00:31:53 chris chris uh only only agree open wounds yeah like dog mouths like you've ever seen the side of like a dog's mouth yeah i own a dog man have you ever looked at his mouth i've really yeah i looked at my dog's mouth have you ever thought that that looks like a vagina i've never my penis never thought that because i've never been aroused but i'm not talking about being aroused i'm talking about your your your you know your conscious mind was like huh that has a striking resemblance to uh female genitalia some dog gums are like blackish too why would that some vaginas are blackish like a dog's i don't know it's from like pink like it just like has a little design like it's like like a wavy design of black dogs have weird fucking lips and gums though dogs don't have lips i'm sorry dogs have weird gums though
Starting point is 00:32:34 oh yeah it's like like the ridges and stuff yeah psychs me out when i say i don't like it it's like get that away from me just if lego wanted to he could rip out my throat while i was asleep yeah and i feel like banana could honestly i'm laying in bed he could sink his his teeth into my neck and probably do a little bit of damage i don't know if he could kill me but he could do some damage you know banana were like four times bigger he'd fucking kill us both yeah he would because he's a fucking cat and he's not domesticated he's domesticated just not you know it's not deep down in his dna like it is for Lego You know banana would fucking tear us to shreds and eat us if but he's so sweet saying that's like putting like a fucking great
Starting point is 00:33:11 White shark in a little like just shrinking it and putting in a fish tank going It's domesticated because I can own it and it can't kill me no, but but it's not big enough to murder me Do what he's not being- basically spooning him and he's laying on his back with all his paws out in the air and he was just laying on his back purring and he was so sweet and it's like how could he ever kill anything but then i know i if he were the size of a tiger he would destroy me like there's this video that i sent you of this like woman being dragged off in china by a tiger yeah i was just uh minding my business in my room was like 1am and i get a text from ryan it's a youtube link and i click it and just a woman being killed by a tiger i'm like all right i just thought it was interesting i don't know i'm i'm morbidly intrigued by shit like that because i think everyone it dragged her off so quickly yeah it's a powerful yeah it's such a
Starting point is 00:34:13 powerful strong animal and like we think humans are the top of a food chain but exit your car and your toast yeah it's um we're not the top of the food chain. We just have established a... Dominance over every other fucking species. Yeah, so, you know, because of modern day technology, we're the top of the food chain. But, you know, if we were out in the wild, we'd be dead pretty quick. I don't know. I think everyone has a morbid curiosity to an extent. Some people, I feel like guys have it more than others.
Starting point is 00:34:42 So, I don't know. Susie has a pretty morbid curiosity. Yeah. You know, I... I feel like guys have it more than others so i don't know suzy has a pretty morbid curiosity yeah you know i feel like everyone does everyone like everyone has that i mean that's why there's traffic sometimes when there's a car accident people people slow down they want to look at it yeah they want to see if there's gore or anything and it's like and then they may not be like i want to see if they're okay or i just wanted to see what's going on i want to see exactly no i mean you're drawn to be if it's a bigger crash you're more like it sounds weird but if it's a bigger crash
Starting point is 00:35:10 it feels like it's like oh wow like I waited for that type of thing if it's a small if it's like a you're like oh people are pulling over and slowing down for this shit you know it's like but like if someone dies and it's like oh no like that changes the story because you know people want to see what they don't want to see in a way it's that weird
Starting point is 00:35:29 like it's that it's that strange attraction to death because it's so unknown and so like disturbing and stuff that's fucking scary yeah it's it's terrifying but you can't i i i'm awake at night sometimes just thinking about it and i'm scared you can't be afraid of it though i mean easier said than done but it's like of course We could walk out to the parking lot tonight and someone just pop in the back of my head. I wouldn't know. No you wouldn't. I mean I probably would. I'd be like oh shit Ryan just got shot and then I'd get shot too.
Starting point is 00:35:54 But uh you know it's like we could fucking. I just shit myself. Sorry. Shit. Yeah but Ryan just shit himself a little bit. Sorry. Back to the death talk. You know, it's like, I mean, I'd lie if I said I wasn't afraid of death. But, I mean, everyone's afraid of death to an extent.
Starting point is 00:36:12 I don't want to control, you know, it doesn't control my actions. I know someone that. But I have regular safety. Like, I'm not going to. Oh, yeah, of course. Yeah, no one's going to be like, I'm not scared of death at all. I'm going to eat this cyanide pill. You know, I don't give a shit about death. I'm going to eat this cyanide pill. You know, I don't give a shit about death.
Starting point is 00:36:25 I'm going to stand on top of this moving car. I'm going to jump in front of this train, just see what it feels like. But it's like, I don't know. It's like everyone has a weird curiosity. That's why subreddits exist. Like, watch people die in morbid reality. Yeah, morbid reality. I definitely have been watching a lot of watch people die.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Man, people are going to go to these subreddits. Okay, if you don't want to watch people die don't go to like a subreddit it's fucked up yeah like and that's advertising it more like if i was young and listening to this i'd want to see it no when i was young like it's weird because you know when we were young the more like sexually disgusting stuff was popular like two girls one cup and uh two guys in a sandbox oh yeah two kids in a sandbox. That's good shit. It's disgusting. It's weird. When I was in middle school, when you
Starting point is 00:37:12 start to see more of how the world really is, I don't know. It's weird because at a young age, of course, I have the internet all to myself. You get curious and you look things up. Of course, at a young age, when I'm 13 like of course at a young age when i'm in like when i'm like 13 of course like one of the things i looked up was you know i feel like a
Starting point is 00:37:31 lot of kids do this they look up you know gore that kind of thing because because you're you're curious about it and i remember it like fucked me up after i saw some but like i don't know it's it's that weird like huh that's it's interesting interesting. Not in, like, an attractive way, of course. Not, like, in a sexual way. But it's, like, a weird, like... It's like, this shit happens. It's kind of like... It's a difference between...
Starting point is 00:37:53 It's reality. Yeah, exactly. As it was... It's the difference between hearing 40 dead in mass shooting just this week. Hearing it on the news. And then hearing it on the news, and you're like, oh, you're like oh my god that's terrible but like i don't know when i go in search of this stuff and i see the world for what it is and like all the violence and shit that happens it just makes me just like it just like okay i actually understand what's going on now i actually understand how
Starting point is 00:38:19 fucking brutal it is and like it's not like this kind of like i'm not like oh no oh another shoot oh no violence whenever it happens in the media of course i'm affected and i think it's terrible but i'm not surprised by anything that happens anymore i'm not in the least i've seen i've seen too much and i've heard too much it's just there's been a massive uh spike in the number of uh you know like mass murders recently like in 2016 yeah well like even history history proves us right even in our lifetime with uh 9-11 bring that up yeah yeah hello uh george w bush haha jokes but that's a big fucking event that happened in our lifetime yeah and like and i feel like since that happened in my lifetime i don't it's gonna be hard for
Starting point is 00:39:01 something else to trumpet except for the beginning of uh Trump Yeah, I was just about to make that joke I was just saying that because of wordplay But for some reason I thought when I is it weird that what I thought of Trump's name World War three also entered my head No, because of the fucking shit he says It's not weird at all Someone like no one no one's gonna be offended like oh you Donald Trump's a goofy fucking man Such a stupid, such a goofy dude.
Starting point is 00:39:27 Like, I hope he becomes president just so I can say on this podcast, like if he's our future president, he's a cunt, dude. I just he's so fucking goofy. He's an idiot. It just I can't get over it. I'm so I'm so interested by him. I'm so interested by this whole campaign. And that's why he's in the fucking lead in the polls because everyone's like he gets so much media time and he's like a train wreck and people. Dude, bringing it full circle back to the fucking like people are intrigued by like morbid shit.
Starting point is 00:39:56 People like watching train wrecks. People like watching bad shit happen. Well, it's like watching Donald Trump. Yeah, there's a thing on YouTube. I think it's a video that explains that. He's like doing what reality TV does. And he's like going in the same kind of like waveform that big reaction, small reaction, all that type of shit. And, you know, the media is like, oh, this is this is perfect. You know how many views and everything we're going to get if we, you know, we headline what Donald Trump said.
Starting point is 00:40:21 He said this ridiculous thing about Mexicans. Let's headline it. A million views. Everyone's gonna be watching our news network and they keep doing that and it feeds into this massive just cycle and then next thing you know he's leading in the polls because there's a lot of stupid people out there and then all that exposure of donald trump gets to all those stupid people and then next thing you know we got uh donald trump leading our country that it can't happen ryan it it can't it's gonna happen well it's likely it's possible and i i honestly like i don't know i've
Starting point is 00:40:47 read up on a lot on both candidates and i don't want to give like i'm not gonna say which one i'd rather have i'm just gonna say either side i look at is is not enjoyable it's it's not enjoyable it's not uh it's not a good experience i don't i don't i don't know i'm not proud everyone's i'm not proud of the way things have turned out um you gotta pick one it's like no i don't know I'm not proud I'm not proud of the way things have turned out you gotta pick one no I don't I just fucking hate them both so I don't have to pick either one I'm not
Starting point is 00:41:12 my voice on politics and my opinions on politics and even my vote I'm not discouraging anyone from voting I think everyone should vote I'm just saying that me it's not going to make a difference people are like oh you're not voting you're part of the problem it's like i'm just not going to get involved because you know it's not worth my time it's
Starting point is 00:41:32 it's a whole publicity stunt it's it's all stupid shit and it's like i'm not gonna make a difference to help either yeah exactly so it's like like it's not like I'm, well, you can choose the, I don't know, the worst, the best of the worst. The lesser of two evils. Yeah. As they say. And it's just, and I'm not even going to say, I don't know. There are other candidates, of course, in this term that, I mean, this has been a very entertaining, eventful. Oh, this has been the most entertaining election I've ever been alive to witness.
Starting point is 00:42:04 It provided so much entertainment. I hope they're all like this until it became so fucking real and scary like we were all laughing and now it's just kind of like it's almost like i'm testing you in the car like i'm like oh am i gonna break matt am i gonna break and now it's we're way too close to the edge of a cliff now for you to feel comfortable and i'm like oh well ryan you probably should have break by now yeah and i say that as we're fucking in midair going off the cliff like you should have break by now yeah it was exciting at first like oh is it gonna break oh of course it's gonna oh fuck i part of me feels like i wonder if this is just what politics always was and now that we're now we're just old enough to see it yeah i don't know maybe it's just a busy contest it is but i i think that this election will go down in history because i think
Starting point is 00:42:51 that this election either way you're getting a big goof a big goofy fuck as a president or the first woman president it's gonna make history either way south park goofy donald trump well this is what we can be sure of no matter which one of those candidates becomes president it's gonna suck but then you know they're never gonna get elected for a second term either neither one of them will get elected for a second term people are gonna be listening to this in like four years and be like they're yeah he's getting elected for a second no no but like uh he's gonna except he's Trump's gonna be celebrating at the DNC next year he's gonna take over the fucking left yeah but uh basically um
Starting point is 00:43:27 it's like like no matter which one we pick it's gonna suck for four years but then after that it's gonna be this amazing probably like growth where it's like oh they're gone and now we have a new candidate and america is just on the upward rise now that's when that's when a uh like a hitler type dictator can come in yeah that's where he's going to like, oh, anyone besides those two. And then we're just going to get fucking Hitler who faked his death and has been hiding out in South America. He's still alive, actually. Yeah. So if you're out there, Hitler, we...
Starting point is 00:43:56 I think he's actually probably a big fan. He commented on one of our videos. No joke. Yeah? Well, there was a user named Hitler. So, I mean, if he's a a big fan if you're a fan of super megacast thank you sir stop it adolf you know this is getting you in the trouble oh adolf they're they're tapping into your fucking he's coming dude send us a message though for real dm us but
Starting point is 00:44:17 um we have some ideas however uh did you see the eric andre at the republican national convention video such a such a clusterfuck of uh of entertainment i love eric andre at the republican national convention video such a such a cluster fuck of uh of entertainment i love eric andre that's the perfect way to kind of describe his comedy uh just a clusterfuck of entertainment yeah he just goes to the republican national convention and he just basically trolls people he just like he he'll get a whole bunch of things in his arms and then just like walk and just trip or he'll just like go pee outside the building and um there's this guy named alex jones who runs info wars which is a really crazy crazy fucking website but but eric andre like went to the info wars rally and he like was in
