Great, Matt.
Awesome start to the podcast.
Not even opening with music.
It's just going to be that sound effect.
I wanted to, man.
I figured you better not put music in.
You better just open up with that.
I'm not going to put any music in.
That's how I'm going to start it.
I was like, I'm sitting here because before every podcast episode starts it's about 30 seconds of silence ryan i sit there and
we're like how do we it's got to be funny how do we bring it in today i said you know what
i'm going back to my roots and and i'm i'm coming out of the the gate with one of the funniest
uh pieces of comedy that mankind has ever uh been so lucky to be able to enjoy.
A fart sound effect.
Yeah.
Who doesn't think it's funny?
I still laugh.
I don't know.
It's like even when it's in a movie, it can be the worst comedy.
And I'll be sitting there straight faced the whole way through it.
But the moment they put in a fart sound effect, I just just like it's like whether it's like legitimately
laughing at the humor of the scene or just wow they put that in and i'm laughing because of it
i am 100 laughing at the fart joke it's a guaranteed uh reaction you know it's because
they always use the same sound effects in movies i don't get why it's so hard for them to have
realistic sound being flatulence it's always like like, pfft. It's not real.
Is no one in the Foley room just, like, eating some beans and shit and can produce some good classic farts?
They always have to go with the, I don't know, you can just look up, like, fart sound effects.
It's not hard to find a realistic fart sound.
There's those, like, cartoon ones, you know.
Which they always use in movies.
And they're, like, so fake.
Or, like, the real ones.
Yeah, and it's like, what the hell is that?
Just like if you look up vomit sound effects, it's all like.
It's like, that's not what vomit sounds like.
You need like, no one pukes like that.
I love like the sights.
What is the sight?
Sound snap.
Sound snap.
Sound snap.
Just.
Like that shit
we get our sound effects from a website called
a mix of them, we get some from a website
called Sound Snap
which has like hundreds
of thousands of sound effects, it's like a
membership website and we got a membership
and we get things off there
and I've noticed a lot of movies get sound effects
off there because actually
Eric Andre uses sounds.
Eric Andre uses sounds.
But I noticed in Once Upon a Time for Hollywood, I recognized some exact sound effects we've used.
Really?
So they must use SoundSnap because a lot of big movies and TV shows use that website.
It's a big one for it.
But it's so – some of the sounds in there are so bad because there's always good sounds, but there's just so many bad ones in the mix.
And I don't think the algorithm on those sites is very good for showing you the best ones
It'll just kind of show you all of them
So I'm trying to find a vomit sound
It's just like
And it'll be like number 46
And it's just like the same guy doing that for 50 different sound bites
Because he really wants to hear himself in a movie one day
Honestly, I think the best place for sound effects is YouTube.
That's where I get all the best ones.
For every sound effect I put in the Shinjuku vlog was off of YouTube.
100%.
Sometimes I'll put one from a website and I'll go back and just find one on YouTube.
You just rip it with an MP3.
It's too easy to find them on YouTube.
I know.
Especially all the fun cartoon sound effects.
You can't find good cartoon sound effects on SoundSense. I remember I gave you the timeline. Dude, I had a ball the fun cartoon sound effects. You can't find good cartoon sound effects on SoundSan.
I remember I gave you the timeline.
Dude, I had a ball with those cartoon sound effects.
You're like, okay, buddy, ease up on the cartoon.
I was just like, bong, bong.
I know.
I was just like, I just got high and put a bunch of cartoon sound effects in.
It was laughing my ass off.
Dude, there is.
There's one that I wish was kept in, I think.
We could take the video down and re-upload it.
Could I take one out that...
I think you did.
Which, wait, where?
It's the one, it's the whole, it's the swooshes of that one.
It's the one where you do the face and you're like,
do do do, ma do this.
Oh yeah.
In the face, where I added like a
I think I just took, did I take that whole clip out?
I think it's in the Patreon one. I think you started to take
it out and then you're like, actually I'm going to keep it in. But then you
didn't keep it in, I think. I think I actually said I was
going to put it back in and then I forgot. Okay. Because it was late
at night. We got the Kyoto one coming soon.
Maybe it's out already. I don't know. Probably not.
Maybe. We just got to... Well, I mean,
we're so, like, recently... I'm about to hand it off to
you. You're going to give me a little hand? Yeah. Hand it
off? That was a handjob joke. It's, it's, I'm very excited hand it off to you you're gonna give me a little hand yeah hand it off that was a handjob joke
it's it's I'm very excited for that
one I edited it
I edited it
I edited it
see that's where that's the problem
edited it edited it okay there we go
did it I edited it
that's really cool I edited
it if you don't speak English and you hear that you're like what the
fuck was that like what do you just say I edited it it sounds you don't speak English and you hear that, you're like, what the fuck was that? Like, what did you just say?
I edited it.
It sounds like the beginning of like a, what genre of music?
It's M&M's song.
I edited it.
Yeah.
It's my best M&M impression.
So it's, I was editing it back home.
It's edited.
It's not completely edited.
I still need to do a lot of shit with it.
And then hand it off to you for some fun, fun
giggles.
But it's in chronological
order.
There's bits and pieces
and it's in one line
that tells a story. So now it's
all about shaving it down,
adding the bits in,
watching through it.
I don't know.
When you edit a video, I'm pretty sure I watched Shinjuku, and I'm pretty sure you watched Shinjuku a shit ton too, but you watched a shit ton of Harajuku.
I'm pretty sure I watched it over 100 times.
Oh, definitely.
Where I'm just like, again, again, again.
You just keep going.
With the E3 video, I think. Because for me, it's like pacing.
I want to make sure the edits and stuff I've done is evenly placed with what has been going on.
So I want to be like, so up until this point, how does it feel and what does it feel with this new bit added in?
So I do a lot of rewatches and shit.
Oh, yeah.
When we edit a live action, we rewatch that shit so much.
I could probably, for a lot of our live action videos, I could sit down with a piece of paper and like sketch out every single shot because i
said we've had to watch it so many times like i know exactly what comes next and i hope when i'm
80 you know those images will just haunt me in my brain i shut my eyes and i just see our live
action videos it kind of makes it easier to edit uh from like my point of view when we do it like
that got a nice ass matt thank you just you. Just thought I'd say that.
Thank you.
But it's because you separate the video into what?
Like 50 different small little chunks.
And you have to think, this small little chunk is its own bit.
And then so you edit that to be its own bit.
And then it goes to the next 10 second to 30 second chunk.
And you're like, this is its own bit.
Or maybe a five second chunk
like there's so i'd say there's like if you can count not every cut but every change to like a
different bit like in um shinjuku you had what's in uh don quixote but you also had subsections
within that where it was like you getting the sex toy you you looking at, um, are you trying to find your friends?
You know, there's like different bits within one larger bit in the grand scheme of the
timeline.
It's a, it's a lot of really tedious footage organization because basically the reason
these videos take long is because let's say we'll have 200 pieces of footage for one Japan
vlog.
Yeah.
You have to go through and you have to watch every clip and you throw it on the timeline
and then you take every clip and then you trim down each clip to what's usable.
And then you usually go back through it a couple times and delete some ones or move
them away where it's like, I don't think that should be in the video.
Move them over to the right or something.
Just in case.
Just throw them over.
And then once you have all the usable footage, then you have to like either color code it or what I'll do now is I started making adjustment layers on the top layer that have the name on it.
So I can put footage under that.
So one will be like piss alley karaoke.
And then I stick the footage under that so I can see where everything is.
And then once you organize everything that you've trimmed down to like different sections of the video
then like ryan said you have all these bits and bits within bits so then you need to
you focus on one bit at a time you just like like i don't like working on one bit here and
then another bit there and i just like getting one done so it's like somewhat polished and then
when you go back into your watch through you'll notice something you want to fix with a bit. So you'll get a joke that you put in or edited done.
And you'll be like, okay, I'm going to rewatch it now.
But then as you rewatch, you see several things that you want to go up and doctor up.
And that'll happen so many times.
So one joke that you've seen 10 other times already has probably been changed 10 more times because also
you stop thinking it's like funny after a while you've seen it so many times and
then you start second-guessing like is this funny well people think it's funny
or is it just not as funny to me because I've seen it a hundred times now if you
you if you're subscribed to our patreon you'll see like a like all the footage
that's in the behind the scenes of Shinjuku I feel like most of it was
worthy of being in the actual vlog.
Yeah, I mean, honestly,
on the Patreon video is,
I think it's,
it's like nine minutes.
Where it's literally just the same thing
as the Shinjuku video.
It's just all the extra footage
we ended up not using.
Yeah.
And it's just a huge compilation
of all the footage we didn't use.
So you can check that out on Patreon.
But like, yeah, all of it's good shit.
And looking back,
I showed a friend and she was like, this could have just been, like, a second video on YouTube, essentially.
That's just how picky we are, though.
Yeah, we're very picky when it comes to editing.
So, like, we, so imagine we had enough, we had enough footage to essentially make an hour-long video, probably, if we really wanted to drag stuff out.
But that's not how we edit our live action.
And we're also very kind of...
Because if you put a...
Because a lot of those bits,
I'm not saying it would disrupt the flow,
but you've got to think of the progression of things.
I just want it as concise and sexy as possible.
And we could do the classic.
You know, a lot of YouTubers will just take it all,
barely edit it, just dump it all into a project,
and it's like an hour long and throw it on YouTube.
Where it's just cuts.
Without any editing or anything.
Between the cuts.
I don't want to do that.
I want to be proud of what we make.
And I am proud.
I am proud of what we make.
We still have not any updates on that unfortunate lost vlog.
The SD card?
Yeah.
Here's the thing.
I have this gut feeling I'm going to find it but
it's gonna be it might be months after the rest of the Japan vlogs come out or it might be this
week yeah I just keep having a feeling that it's not lost like it's just uh it's in a box or it's
in the storage unit it's somewhere and and I will find it maybe I need to recheck all my SD cards
Tucker maybe he has one of my SD cards.
Because I know where it was seen the last time in my room.
Someone even vouches that I know that saw it in my room.
Carson saw it exactly in the same place I remember where it was.
Carson Tucker, the allurious third Tucker brother.
I don't think allurious is a word, but you know what I mean by that.
Would that mean he's alluring?
Yes.
He has an allure to him.
Which he does.
He's very sexy.
He's the sexiest of the Tucker brothers.
I feel like of YouTube fans, they would be most attracted to Carson Tucker.
He has the most appeal to...
He's young.
He's young.
He's hip.
He's hip.
He doesn't wear fucking glasses all the time.
No. He's into
a lot of hip fashion.
He knows what the kids
want. Which, by the way, if you're wearing glasses right
now, take that off.
Like, you can see. Is it
1940, guys? The fuck are you doing?
Like, just take them off.
You look stupid. You know it.
Just deal with it.
And guess what?
For that person out there that just got new glasses, maybe like today or yesterday or the day before,
and you're like feeling them out and you're like, I think I look good, but I'm still self-conscious.
They look bad.
Take them off.
You look like a fucking buffoon.
You look like a moron, honestly.
Okay.
And I wouldn't be surprised if everyone calls you four eyes and gives you a swirly.
You think kids at school are going to like you because you wear glasses now?
I'm sorry.
That's not how the world works.
Yeah, I'm glad that glasses are a defining characteristic of your personality, jackass.
Yeah, everyone's going to suddenly like you now.
Oh, it's the glasses.
Yeah, you're suddenly a very likable person.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, that's the glasses guy.
Well, my grandfather wears glasses.
He doesn't have too many friends.
Well, he's dead. He doesn't have too many friends Well he's dead
Probably because he wore glasses
What am I wearing right now Ryan?
Contacts hopefully
I don't have contacts
I was wearing my glasses at the beginning of this podcast
Then you took them off because you looked stupid
And I didn't take them off when you said take them off
I took them off minutes before you said that
You saw it I just took them off
Because I realized they were so stupid
I'm actually going to break them right now
I tried to simulate a glasses breaking sound You can probably find a sound effect I just took them off because I realized they were so stupid. I'm actually going to break them right now.
I tried to simulate a glasses breaking sound.
You can probably find a sound effect.
By opening a Sharpie.
Here, I'll go on SoundSnap.
Here's me breaking my glasses.
Broke them.
Nice.
I do like glasses a lot.
I like wearing them.
Guess what?
What?
I saw a movie you recommended to me starring Vince Vaughn. Oh, yeah.
Not that one. Yeah. Not the one with Vince Vaughn. Oh, yeah. Not that one.
Yeah.
So, Vince Vaughn.
Yes.
The movie.
Brawl in Cell Block 99.
Oh.
Oh.
You, well, you recommended it to me, but you only saw the last third of it.
Yeah.
So, without spoiling it, did you, you started when he was already in the prison, I'm guessing.
Yes.
Was he already in Orange?
Yes.
Okay, so you really were in just the last bit of it.
It was, yeah.
I think I had a doctor's appointment, and I walked in on Friends watching it,
and then I was so captured by it, I watched the last third or fourth.
You should watch the whole thing.
I think it could have been a bit shorter, I think.
Possibly.
Yeah, I think it could have been a bit shorter, I think. Possibly. Yeah.
I think it could have been trimmed down.
But I don't think it was excruciating to get through it all.
I think it was evenly paced most of the time.
And when shit happens, it happens.
It does.
I remember that.
I was like, ooh.
Because the whole movie, like, I don't want to spoil anything,
but the first, you know, good chunks of the movie are pretty tame compared to the climax.
That's what I heard because when I got there, my friends were like,
this literally just started happening.
Like, the rest of the movie was not like this.
This is new.
And then before that, because I'm on a kick right now i want to watch everything on
my watch list that i can and i have like 50 something movies on it right now and it's like
every time i watch a movie i'll like i'll be going throughout my day and i'll add two or three more
so it's like it'll never fucking end which is great but i i it's it it uh it intrigues that
obsessive part of my personality where it's like you you know how I wanted the 100% Sekiro for no fucking reason?
It's not like I have a medal or I get to have any special treatments because of it.
Personal fulfillment.
I like kind of a list and knocking out that list.
Feels good.
I fucking love making lists.
And if you go in my notebook, it's nothing but just lists.

That's A-N-G-I.com. Introducing Tim's new savory pinwheels, the perfect flaky and flavorful snack
for those on the go, like me, who's recording this while snacking.
Ooh, delicious.
Try the roasted red pepper and Swiss or caramelized onion and parmesan pinwheels only at Tim's.
At participating restaurants in Canada for a limited time.
Cool.
Nice, dude.
It's just like you stopped very abruptly.
Just lists.
I know.
That's all they are, lists.
Lists of people I wish were dead. Lists of people that have wronged me. all they are lists of people i wish were dead
lists of people that have wronged me yep um but people that will be dead two other movies i saw
were uh sisters the sisters brothers starring joaquin phoenix and oh the brothers grimsby john
c reilly and uh what's his fuck jake gyllenha. And I can't remember this dude's name.
Oh, well.
Jake Gyllenhaal's in a really good music video where he's like a psycho serial killer.
Really?
Yeah.
Psycho killer.
And then I saw Mandy, which was a bonkers Nicolas Cage movie.
Every Nicolas Cage movie is bonkers.
Yeah, but this one actually used Nicolas Cage correctly
because you'll see him in shit like Left Behind.
I think he's been in two movies about the rapture.
He was in Left Behind.
There was another movie I remember.
I don't know the title of it,
but essentially the whole time it's like you think these things are aliens,
I don't know the title of it, but essentially the whole time it's like you think these things are aliens,
but it turns out that they're angels wanting to take his kid and someone else's kid away from Earth so that they can destroy Earth and they can start humanity anew.
It ends with the Earth getting destroyed, right?
The knowing?
Doesn't that end with the Earth getting destroyed?
Yeah.
It's like a scene of New York getting blown up.
I think so, yeah.
I saw that movie. I watched that with my parents um but uh but this in this movie they they
get the the crazy nick cage out where he's like where he's like yelling and screaming and just
it's he's two things about mandy it it's definitely a movie with a vision like when
you're watching it it's like this is not like anything that is coming out right now and hasn't been any you know like anything
that's come out as of recent and it has Nicolas Cage so you can enjoy uh the filmmaking but then
also enjoy Nicolas Cage going batshit crazy for half of the movie. It's a two-hour movie.
The first half is the build-up, then the second half is the release, I would say, in terms of what goes down.
It's a revenge movie.
It's a goofy, goofy movie.
Speaking of rapture movies.
Which is also a good movie.
The Goofy movie is a fantastic movie.
I have it on Blu-ray.
Oh, okay.
I love it so much.
Remember last week we were talking about Pure Flix?
Yes.
So the weird thing is, before that podcast was even released,
I've been having a lot of weird coincidental shit happening every day of my life.
We got an email from somebody that said that they know someone who knows the co-founder of Pure Flix.
And they were like, this might be a long shot, but I'm going to see if i can get you guys in contact so maybe we can be in a pure flicks movie
dude if we could be in a pure flicks movie dude what you don't think we could be in a pure flicks
movie look at this here's some good pure flicks movies harrison sent me holy man undercover uh
it's the guy from god's not dead he's hot he's hip he's Amish
and he goes undercover in Hollywood
as an Amish man I believe
that's Fred Willard in it
does he uncover the
the Hillary Clinton
pedophile sex scandal
I wish
the movie ends with him capping Hillary Clinton in the head
has anyone
done like a Blaxploitation Jesus film?
The fuck, dude?
Talking about coincidences.
This morning.
Like it's about the crucifixion story.
But it's shot and filmed like a 70s, I guess, era.
This morning over coffee, I talked about a Blaxploitation Jesus Christ film with Harrison for about 25 minutes.
Really?
What the fuck?
Oh, my God.
But we were talking about you playing Jesus.
No, no.
I would get a black dude to play Jesus.
Yeah, but we literally talked.
We came up with the whole thing.
Mary Magdalene.
She's like, but you can call me Mary Jane.
And, you know, the 12th.
We were also talking about making it like a uh uh oceans 11 movie
where it's like a bank heist and he has to get the disciples together and go like recruit them
and it's just like a bunch of like pimps and stuff that'd be a great movie yeah you know like uh
matthew's on like demolition and like a bunch of like different they all have a specialty you know
what i want to see pure flicks do a found, time travel, Jesus crucifixion story where these people make a time machine.
They go back in time and they bring back proof.
Like they show their whole goal.
Their whole goal is to capture proof that the crucifixion happened.
But at the end, they're about to go through and they have the camera.
Then he just goes and chucks it into the Red Sea.
And he's like, I just need need my faith i don't need proof then he walks through and he goes
you know pure flicks can have that one for free as long as you make us the main character please
okay we'll make it if you give us a budget we'll make it for you pure flip we'll shoot it we'll
write we will legitimately write and shoot this movie just give us the budget, we'll make it for you, Pure Flix. We'll shoot it. We'll write it and shoot it. We will legitimately write and shoot this movie.
Just give us the budget.
And it doesn't even have to be a big budget.
I mean, I prefer something where we can make it look convincing.
Fly us to Jerusalem.
We'll shoot it there.
What budget do you think Pure Flix gives their movies?
They probably make a shit ton of money, dude.
Can you see movie budgets?
Yes.
Okay, here.
There's a Pure Flix movie Harrison was telling me about where it's a man who's vowed to never be alone in a room with another woman.
Mike Pence.
No, but he.
This is a biography of Mike Pence.
But he's not married.
That's the thing.
Oh, here's another Pure.
So they have a lot of these here.
Old fashioned.
The budget for God's Not Dead was $2 million.
And it grossed 63.8
million worldwide holy fuck dude wait how much did it gross 63 million on a two million dollar like
so and now you're like if you're ever wondering why these movies get made that's why and then
god's not dead too they increase the budget oh dude listen to this this is the saddest thing
so they increase the budget to five million going yeah listen to this. This is the saddest thing. So, they
increased the budget to $5 million going, yeah,
we're going to make a shit ton more money off of this. But then it
only grossed in the U.S., not worldwide,
but who's going to watch it worldwide?
A lot of people. The gross was
$20.7 million this time.
So, down two-thirds. Still
a fantastic, you know,
margin. Yeah, but compared to
like a $60 million profit margin i'm glad
we saw that in theaters let's see glad you got me for my birthday or for christmas i don't remember
you got me god's not dead the the third one and god's not dead three i don't oh shit i don't know
how much they put into the movie because it's not showing they're like what's the budget was
but uh they they grossed5.7 million. Ooh.
Yeah, that means they probably will not make a fourth, unfortunately.
Real quick, let me read you the plot of this movie.
It's called Old Fashioned.
The poster is basically like two little, you know the bathroom sign people, like the way
they look?
Yeah.
It's this, where it says, love is patient, love is kind, love is dot, dot, dot, old-fashioned.
Let me read you the plot, okay?
Clay Walsh owns an antique shop where he repairs and restores furniture.
Situated in a small Midwestern college town, he is known as someone with unusual convictions.
Into his life arrives Amber, a free-spirited young woman who rinsed the apartment above Clay's shop.
She's immediately struck by the fact that he is unwilling to enter the apartment to
show her around.
Asking why, he states he's made a pledge not to be alone with a woman other than his wife.
She finds that odd.
All the more so when she-
So how do you get a wife?
In fact, he's not married.
So how do you get a wife?
Is there-
Ryan, Ryan.
She takes the apartment and finds a job at a local shop but is interested in knowing more
about the owner of the antique shop her efforts are complicated by the fact that clay does not
date believing modern day dating is a poor preparation for marriage the only time you
will come up and usually you could just back in the bible days club a woman in the head put a
seat in her and watch it spur baby or or hopefully you know her father will just give her to you
if you if you know have a lot of cattle or something I like the club idea more
well Joseph club
Joseph go club that girl over there
I'd like to marry her and impregnate her
Amber is when wait wait
the only time he'll come up and see Amber is when something is in her apartment
needs repair undaunted by the barrier
she contrives a number of breakdowns to
continue their conversations eventually
Clay agrees to take her out but they do not engage
in typical dates over time we learn Amber has been to take her out, but they do not engage in typical dates.
Over time, we learn Amber has been in a number of relationships,
but they were superficial and at times abusive.
Her escape was always to move on to a new place.
Clay has an even more checkered past.
Now, you ready for this?
Spoiler alert, everybody.
In his college days, he knew a great many women.
And he shot exploitation films in the manner of Girls Gone Wild.
Doing this, he made a great deal of money,
but on realizing the pain that his life was causing those around him,
he went through a major life change.
He withdrew from the world, and for the past nine years,
has confined himself to working in his antique shop.
Working with the wood, he has become a true craftsman.
In town, he's known for his faith, his reserve,
and his odd theories on love and romance.
I'm going to go ahead and skip down a little bit.
I just want to see how this ends.
Despite the unusual rules Clay is committed to living under, Amber sees a man whose life she wants to be a part of.
There is some push and pull where she asserts she would just like to do things people do on normal dates.
But with time, she decides it's not worth it.
I don't want normal, she tells him.
I want you.
Okay, Matt.
They get married. Matt, so
the parental advisory for this,
I'm just going to read it out to you, for this movie
Old Fashioned that you just described.
Sex and nudity, none.
Violence and gore, none.
Profanity, none. Alcohol use,
drugs, mild. Then when you get to frightening
and intense scenes, it says severe.
There's like
rape scenes and stuff. So I want to
read these scenes real quick.
The main character comes off as
mentally abusive to his girlfriend as he
grooms her to his way of thinking while
giving her no say in the matter.
He makes her read a book full of invasive
questions, has her cut up baby
food for his friend's child, and is always
telling her what to do.
I love how it's supposed to be like an inspiring
story. The main character refuses
to be alone in a room with women because he
can't control his urges. Such a
characteristic is very unhealthy. So he's a rapist?
Dude, it's someone making fun of the movie on
like, when it's saying frightening and intense
sequences, it's just like
the main character refuses to be
alone in a room with a
woman that's one of the frightening and intense situations okay now i kind of want to read more
there's a lot of pure flicks movies and i kind of want to read more of the movie's synopsis is
huggler's holiday special huggler's adventure one huggler's adventure two jesus loves his children
the wager the imposter uh let me know if any of these catch your eye.
Here's from the 2010s.
Ready?
Holy Man Undercover.
I want to read this one.
This was the Amish dude.
And it has Fred Willard in it for some reason.
Okay.
Wait, it has John Schneider in it?
What?
Okay.
Let me read you the plot synopsis Of this one, ready?
Roy Weichbrot
Played by David A.R. White

Instead he finds fame and fortune playing Satan
On a television show
Roy also meets the girl he wants to marry
As Roy pursues his love
I'm sorry, as Roy pursues her love
His dream quickly vanishes
When scheming networks, an overruling producer, and an angry co-star
turn his life into a total nightmare.
So that's that movie.
Didn't they do a school shooting one?
That's the one that I was talking about.
He didn't shoot anyone.
He killed himself.
I think they did a school shooting one.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Like a Columbine.
Oh!
No, no.
Yeah.
They did.
That's the one where it's like.
It's like, are you a Christian?
And then it's like.
I remember that.
Dude, I remember seeing the trailer for that and being so fucking blown away.
I was like, I can't believe like how tone deaf these people are.
Because isn't it about a girl who actually died?
Yes.
It's about a girl who legitimately died.
Like she was shot in Columbine, I think.
And it's like leading up to her dying in Columbine.
No, it's legitimately not just about a Columbine type thing.
It is about Columbine.
Yeah, I think it is about Columbine.
Oops.
What's that one called?
Wait, wait, wait.
I just want to know what Mom's Night Out is.
I think that was their attempt.
Oh, dude.
Dude, this is their attempt at like a quirky female comedy.
No, there's a movie that came out, I thought, called like Mom...
What was it called?
It was something similar.
What could go wrong?
Let's see.
Mom's Night Out is a 2014 American faith-based comedy film directed by the Irwin brothers.
Dude, we gotta get in touch with the fucking Irwin brothers.
Alright, can I read you this plot real quick?
Bad Moms.
Bad Moms.
That's the movie they're kind of ripping off.
Yes.
Can I read you the quick plot?
Though happily married with three children, Alison Field is beset
with anxiety and feelings of unworthiness.
Finding comfort in her two best friends, Sandra
and Izzy, Alison's husband
Sean recommends a night
out for his overstressed wife,
resulting in
she, Izzy, and Sandra planning
one that starts with dinner at a fancy
Chinese restaurant.
However, when Allie
and her friends arrive at the restaurant, they're told the
reservation has been lost,
resulting in Allie having a meltdown and throwing
away their cell phones.
Why would you be friends with her? The evening
degenerates
with further accidents and misunderstanding
as the babysitters hired to watch the kids take them to a video arcade, which results in a trip to the emergency room and the women's van being taken.
What?
Things go from bad to worse when Bridget realizes that Phoenix is missing.
Okay, well, these are two names that have not been mentioned yet once in the plot.
But they're assuming, I guess, I'm supposed to know who these are.
You should know who they are. The four travel across the city looking for him, and all four end up in a jail cell with
Sandra accidentally tasered by a cop.
However, everyone is soon reunited, and Allie types a blog post proclaiming that while her
life is stressed and crazy, it is also beautiful.
What do you think of that?
She types a blog post.
I think it sounds beautiful.
Oh, I found the Columbine one. I think it's called Do You Believe? Is that it oh I found the Columbine one I think it's called do you believe is that it I'm not ashamed I thought was it all the titles are
wasn't yes it's not that one uh faith of our fathers I'm not ashamed I think it's the same
like five actors in every movie wait the case for Christ I think my dad read that book yeah I'm not
ashamed the true story of
Rachel Joy Scott, the first student killed in
the Columbine High School shooting on April 20th
1999. And here's the thing.
The student who
actually was killed was a Christian, so I'm
sure she wouldn't mind
this message. But at the same time,
you know, Pure Flix, I
cannot believe that
Pure Flix, as a film company in general are making
these movies out of the goodness of their hearts no i think it's like a lot of like christian bands
where it's like they they find a bunch of people who at first are like yo rock on god and then
i'm not doubting like i'm not doubting their faith or anything no i'm sure that they have a
very strong business but yeah it's also business. So they made a business decision.
Okay, hold on.
Let's see.
Oh, wow.
Their most recent movie, the 2019 one, Wikipedia lists it.
Listen to literally what it's listed as.
Unplanned is a 2019 American anti-abortion propaganda film.
So it's actually listed as a propaganda film.
We got to watch this, man.
Can I read you the plot for this?
Yeah.
Can I get a shorter plot?
In 2001 Texas, Abby Johnson sees a Planned Parenthood booth at a college career fair
and agrees to volunteer after being told their ultimate goal was to reduce the number of abortions.
Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I think I saw the trailer to this.
Is this the movie about the woman who was in charge of the abortion clinics and then turned around and was like, no, this is wrong.
She gets pregnant.
She has a medical abortion.
If you watch the trailer, like, to this movie, it's Pure Flix, right?
Yes.
If you watch the trailer to this movie, it's just like, Jesus fucking Christ.
Calm down.
Okay, yes.
It's listed
as a propaganda film.
The first sentence says it's an anti-abortion
propaganda film.
Interesting.
Supposedly following Johnson's life as a clinic director
for Planned Parenthood and her subsequent conversion
to anti-abortion activism through
perpetuating distortions and potentially dangerous
myths about abortion. The factually inaccurate and heavily politicized film was theatrically
released in the united states by conservative christian production and distribution house
pure flicks on march 29th the working title was redeemed and details of its subject were kept
from the public in order to minimize protests by abortion rights activists some tv channels
refused to air ads for the film due to its subject matter.
Yeah.
Yeah. I say we sit down and just marathon as many of these as we can.
I don't think, dude, I could barely get
God's Not Dead 2 was funny though.
They had like. It was
funny. They had all the stereotypes in there,
right? You think this one won't have stereotypes?
Like,
I am excited to watch that.
Kind of want to see the Columbine one because basically I like
it would just make me sad I'm like come on this girl actually died I like seeing movies that are
the reason they are so disrespectful of the subject matter is because they're bad movies
you know what I mean yeah like there's no doubt in my mind that this will be a bad movie it's
gonna be awful and it's gonna be very on the nose with its themes.
I can't wait to be sitting there.
And I can't wait to see the look on your fucking face, Ryan.
When you have tears in your eyes.
And you immediately dash for the DVD player and you restart the movie right there.
I cannot wait to see the fucking movie.
A second time.
A second time.
Please.
A third.
A fourth.
We've been talking about a little idea we want to do down the road.
Maybe not in 2019 because we have some other ideas first.
A little idea we might want to put into production soon.
To make it stinky?
I almost shit myself while driving yesterday.
I kind of stood up in my seat and I was like,
Ooh, is that bad? Is that going to come over here?
That's one of the worst ones I've had in a long time, buddy.
That says a lot.
Is it going to find its way over here?
I don't know.
We'll see.
Stop waving it over here.
Stop.
I really don't want this one.
I like our podcast and go from talking about anti-abortion movies to just...
Hold on, let me check if I just shit myself.
I don't feel it, but like...
You want me to check?
That was really stinky.
I could shine my flashlight on your asshole.
He's peeking in his pants with a flashlight.
There's his penis.
No little... no little dots.
Well, stick your finger in your ass crack.
Woo! That's... God, that's awful.
That is rancid.
That's not over here yet.
Good. I don't think it will go over there.
Is that gonna be one where I'm gonna have to leave the room?
If you were over here, maybe. But it seems to be...
Oh my...
You got it?
I knew it was... I knew it was coming!
That's horrible, dude. I guess we're taking a break right now. That's... that's... that's not... I got it? Oh my god. I knew it was coming. That's horrible, dude.
I guess we're taking a break right now.
That's not, I got it for like half a second.
Let's keep the door open.
Let it air out.
We'll be right back.
All right.
We're back.
David, a couple, you got some stuff in you today, man.
You got like, there's something in there.
I'm trying to think of what I ate.
There's a something in there. I'm trying to think of what I ate. There's a demon in there.
It could have been the vegan Indian food I had yesterday.
Vegan Indian food is good.
Well, I didn't get it to be more healthy.
I got it because I legitimately like Samosa House,
like their chicken more than any like regular curry chicken.
Vegan chicken?
There's this one brand, I think it's literally called
Chicken, but it's like C-H-I-K-I-N.
I had this hot Nashville
chicken sandwich made out of it,
and it was unreal. There's times
where I'll have vegan
or meat...
You turn off the fan.
It's pretty cold.
I'll have meat replacements, and they're
actually sometimes a little bit better, like Impossible Burgers. If you ever in santa monica go to samosa house it's delicious
uh yeah dude vegan vegan food's pretty good because i used to be of the mindset where i was
like vegan food that's great i just have real food and then i just tried it uh a couple times
at restaurants like i went to a couple vegan restaurants expecting to be horrible and i was
like because you know you have that mindset like if you haven't had a lot of vegan food
if you're not vegan, which neither
of us are vegan or vegetarian, but you
go into that, Jesus fucking
Christ. Ryan,
you knocked over Aaron's box of toys
and bongs. I needed more space.
That scared me really bad actually.
It's just a box of bongs
and toys. Yeah. They better not be broken.
He's going to be pissed.
I'll just hide it somewhere.
I'll put a blanket over it.
We can convince him when he was doing steroids last time he broke it.
Because he got mad at us last time for recording in here.
Even though he gave us the permission to record in here.
But that roid rage changes a man.
How's that, audience?
You guys like that?
Is that fun?
Tap that.
Tap that. Give me Tap that. Tap that.
Give me some more.
Tap that.
Till you get sore.
Tap that.
Wake up.
That's R. Kelly's new song.
Dude, I saw a big billboard yesterday near Beverly Hills.
Cool.
For a movie called...
Dude, I saw this big billboard.
It was so cool, man.
It was so big. Anyway,
it was for a movie called Surviving R. Kelly.
And it's just like the...
That's the documentary. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I haven't seen the documentary. I didn't know there was a documentary.
Yeah, that's the big documentary.
I'm sure your love is driving past that.
He's in jail, Matt.
What'd he do?
What?
He was arrested again and the judge didn't give him He's in jail, Matt. What'd he do? What? What?
He was arrested again, and the judge didn't give him bail?
Yeah, he didn't give him bail.
Why?
What'd he do?
I don't know.
He might have did some oopsies.
What next?
You're going to tell me Roman Polanski fled the country?
After, that's the thing about Roman.
My man Roman, he pleaded guilty to the charges and then fled
So at least he knows that he was wrong
Someone fucked up on that one
Because usually if you're a flight risk
They're pretty good at calculating that
Why can't you just drug 13 year old girls
And sodomize them
Come on Roman it's not that bad
We watched a new Tarantino
Not a new Tarantino, Ryan had never seen it
He came over you me, me, and Harry.
Reservoir Dogs.
We watched Reservoir Dogs.
Super short, to the point, nice, good little movie.
It's his first.
Tarantino's first.
You can tell it was, I think it wasn't an indie film when it first came out.
You can also tell it's a first movie.
It has a lot of that first film vibes.
I got that vibe mainly in the car ride where Mr. White and Mr. Orange?
Is Mr. Orange the one who got shot?
Tim Roth's character.
Yeah.
When they're in the car.
I was like, you could definitely be like, you could feel like, oh, this is like lower budget.
And I, dude, I have never seen, I don't know if it was on purpose or not,
but that green screen in Pulp Fiction was ridiculous when they're in the car.
They're driving in the car in Pulp Fiction, and I'm looking at it, and the green screen, you can obviously tell it's kind of like one of those projectors in the back.
Oh, I haven't.
I never picked up on that.
I haven't seen Pulp Fiction in a while.
I don't know if it's on purpose or not.
I want to say it was because it's a part of that time. I mean, Tarantino does a lot of that shit.
In the movie Death Proof, there's parts where the film will fuck up and they'll restart the shot.
And they'll leave that in.
It's stylized.
But Reservoir Dogs is awesome.
And I forgot one of the actor's names.
Mr. White.
He's in another movie I really like called Bad Lieutenant.
I want to show you.
He's also in Sublock 99.
He is?
The older guy? Isn't he? Hold on. I want to show you. He's also in Cell Block 99. He is? The older guy?
Isn't he?
Hold on.
I'm talking about the guy who's like,
say you're going to be okay.
You're going to be okay.
Yeah, him.
Oh, is he?
Hold on.
He's in a lot of stuff.
Let me check that.
He always plays that type of character.
Maybe I'm effing stupid.
He's amazing, though.
Tim Roth, I think that's like his best performance
is Reservoir Dogs from what I've seen.
He's just incredible.
Who played Mr. White?
What's his name?
Man, I forgot. He's just incredible. Who played Mr. White? What's his name? Man, I forgot.
He's one of those guys.
There's certain guys that are just like typecast to criminal, like mobster.
Never mind.
I'm being stupid.
He wasn't.
I'm being dumb.
He just looked like him because he was like pulled open the thing, the slat, and was talking
to him.
And I'm like, that kind of looks like that guy's face.
Can we talk about the Irishman? Have we talked about that yet on the podcast? How good that looks?
I'm excited to see it. The new Scorsese movie. I want to see that. I want to see 1917.
It's all like the classic guys from gangster movies in one movie.
And it's Scorsese so it's like. I have a watch list. Let's go through like
some movies that I've seen trailers of and shit that are coming out and I want to
kind of talk about them.
The Iron Giant 2.
Would you be upset if they did a remake of that movie?
I wouldn't be upset.
I probably wouldn't.
I'd see it.
Would you go into it critical?
Probably.
I mean, yeah, I'm biased.
I'll be honest.
Because you would know they wouldn't be remaking it out of like passion.
I feel like if there was a passion remake
it could be really good but
like the way Disney and Marvel
not Marvel the way Disney does like these remakes
they make so much money
but like the Lilo and Stitch one
I don't think there's a trailer out for that yet but it's like why
if I can remember seeing it in theaters
and I'm only 23 it's not ready to be remade
I was kind of like
gearing up I was like okay I'm going to try to enjoy this Mulan movie coming out.
And then.
Yeah.
And then she went and said some goofy shit.
Which is so weird because her perspective should be that of someone who has all the information of mainland China.
But she still supports him.
I know.
But, well, that's always confusing to me. These actors,
I read that Jackie Chan is a really big example
of that, where it's these actors who
live in America and are able to
see... They're American citizens, right? Yeah, and they're able to
see what China
is like from the outside,
not from the inside perspective of a lot of citizens
who are just under that kind of
spell, but they'll still
basically be on the side of China.
And maybe it's your roots type of thing,
but still, you know.
Because all the shit going on in Hong Kong right now,
which is now the biggest protest in modern history,
they just seen like,
the girl playing Mulan came out
and she was like, you can attack me all all you want I support the police in Hong Kong
And basically for those who don't know what's going on you should research it basically like China
wants to
Re-retake Hong Kong didn't they take back the legislation, but they didn't take it back like as in
Cancel it out completely like it's still able to be pushed, but it's just not.
Hong Kong is, like, a democracy, and they don't want to be part of China because there's so much corruption there.
There's a lot of corruption in Hong Kong.
Mainland China wants to be able to extradite people from Hong Kong to China.
Which means that they could basically just scoop up whoever they want and take to China and then charge them in China.
So that would, like, undermine the whole point of their democracy.
And also, that would be one more step closer to China
just taking Hong Kong as part of mainland China.
Which they want.
Yeah, they want that with Taiwan.
They want that with Hong Kong.
Which is funny.
I was on a recent plane flight.
I was looking at the map and I was like,
hmm, Taiwan ain't labeled.
Interesting.
Really?
Yeah.
Not labeled at all.
Did you see these?
I looked at the island.
Like, Japan was labeled.
Tokyo.
Taiwan's big.
It's like.
South Korea, North Korea, China.
You got Madagascar, Australia, New Zealand.
And then there's this island that just has no name.
What could it be?
Could it be Taiwan?
Nah, it's just part of China, baby.
I also, I don't know if you saw this,
because you know how China is such a big funder of Hollywood now?
Yeah.
There's some movie coming out.
It's a remake.
I forgot what it is, but in the original,
someone did a comparison where in the original.
No, they add scenes for China specifically in movies.
Yes, but in the original movie on the back of the guy's jacket, he has patches.
And one is, he has a Taiwan patch and he has a Japan patch on there.
And in the remake, they changed it so they're just fake flags.
They have the China flag or like something.
I don't remember.
I just remember they took out the Taiwan flag and replaced it with a fake flag and the Japan flag and they replaced it.
I think some movies have actually put in scenes within a famous Chinese actor just specifically for the Chinese audience.
And you never see the scenes in America or anything.
Yeah, yeah.
They'll add scenes.
I find it funny how movies like Warcraft, that wasn't a hit here as far as I know, but China was its biggest audience.
People in China loved the Warcraft movies.
Well, they like big spectacle stuff.
Yeah.
That's why I think about how much money the Marvel movies make in China.
Yeah.
And I wonder how –
Disney's always bending over for China.
Yeah, because China just has a lot of money.
Just kind of put some stuff in for us.
And also, I wonder, like, how bad it will get
in the next few decades
with China's kind of influence on Hollywood
and how much China will begin to fully, like,
control the production of, like, movies
and kind of what goes into a lot of them and stuff.
Because it's not like they're,
it's as simple as them gaining control in the business because they don't
need control in the country at all politically.
It's just,
it's all business.
So it's,
it would be very easy for them to kind of,
I mean they,
they do already.
I mean you got major studios that will censor certain things so they will,
so they could be played in China.
Like, I think a lot of people base their shit on whether it can make money in China
because they're like, it'll make a lot of money in the U.S.,
but we also need to make sure that it's censored to the point in terms of,
because, you know, China doesn't like certain things.
They don't like a lot of things.
So, which, like i i would really
like to visit china i've been to beijing i'm too paranoid to want to visit china but like china's
just like it's maybe hong kong not now not now well it's funny because we were talking about
going to hong kong in november because we were like oh we should do like hong kong definitely
not now right but it was right before all this shit started we're like you can't go now these
protests could last months oh and the scary thing is like if it got to the point where they would like open fire on protesters or like, you know, which I don't think.
Well, I mean, who knows?
This podcast is coming out more than like a week after recordings.
Maybe more shit has already happened.
Because right now we're speaking from the perspective of Friday, August 16th.
Yeah.
If anything else has happened, then this conversation could just be kind of rendered null.
Who knows?
But I saw that in Shenzhen, which is the city outside Hong Kong, which is part of China,
they've started bringing thousands of military trucks and lining them up and stuff.
Also to take note that apparently there is a decent military presence in that town already.
And seeing that, while it is upsetting because it may be for show, but it's not too out of the
ordinary.
Oh, okay.
Do you see like the lines of trucks?
Mm-hmm.
And then I saw like a lot of tanks and stuff.
It could very well be intimidation, but-
Oh, it probably is right now.
I've seen people say that like it is their, you know, China still has military parades,
right?
Yeah.
So, I mean-
I also wouldn't put it past China to actually, you know.
Remember that, well, there's that thing that didn't happen.
If there's anything that's going to start, like, the next conflict, it's always something that kind of, that either, I think one, you can say one country does to the other in terms of you think about the German U-boats, blah, blah, blah, blah. Or you can think about countries feeling like they have to step in in another major power's business.
And I feel like if there is a next major conflict, it would be someone stepping into someone else's business.
I'm not saying that World War III will start because of Hong Kong,
but events like, things could go horribly wrong, and I don't have any doubt that a major conflict politically could occur if things went very poorly in Hong Kong.
No one wants to interfere with China, right?
Because that – China dominates so many countries' economies.
There's the trade market.
Yeah, you don't want to really step in and be on China's bad side.
There's just the economy in general.
Yeah.
It's like one of the most powerful countries in the world, so you don't want to get on their bad side.
And I wonder what it would take for countries to step in, because right now it seems like no one's really sticking up for Hong kong because they don't want to jeopardize that like but i wonder what it would take well think about
there will come a point the u.s to maintain political ties if something were to happen in
hong kong i i do not think the u.s would step in at all the u.s still denies the armenian genocide
that's like just to keep political friends with someone the u.s still
denies to claim that taiwan is its own people because of china if china does something the u.s
isn't gonna fucking step in yeah because because you got to think about also like who china's
allied with right but i think has haven't the the uk's come out in support of uh the protesters in
hong kong right oh really i don't know either that or australia australia has been doing a Haven't the UK's come out in support of the protesters in Hong Kong, right?
Oh, really?
I don't know.
Either that or Australia.
Australia has been doing a lot of, I don't know, I don't think the government would,
because Australia has a pretty conservative government, but I have seen that a lot of
solidarity protests in Adelaide and a lot of different parts of Australia have been
doing a lot of big protests for Hong Kong.
You guys, this is supposed to be a funny podcast.
You talk about this.
Interesting.
This is a big world thing going on.
And I like looking back at these episodes like when this was all history.
And it's like, oh, that's like our take on it during the time.
It's just us offering our takes and opinions.
So feel free to skip these ones where we talk about world matters.
We're not super educated
and informed on everything, so if we say some stuff that's
wrong, oopsie daisy. We can't just listen to
two friends have a conversation about
what's going on with the world. We just chose
to monetize it and put it out to the masses.
Losers.
But
it is interesting because
I think China's hoping that it'll just eventually fizzle out.
But the protests have impacted the airport.
They shut down.
When I was actually in Taiwan.
It was over 100 flights.
When I was in Taiwan, I saw there was like a lot of issues because the day I landed in Taiwan for my connecting flight was the day that they canceled all flights out of Hong Kong.
I think the airport's like shut down.
You know, I saw some crazy videos from the protests.
They're using Pepe a lot.
Hong Kong is?
Yeah, as like a pro protest symbol.
Dude, how did that cartoon become such a massive political image i don't
know that creator is so like i can understand it almost well here's the thing you can understand
it in a sense because um one culturally the united states in general is in the internet in general is big on memes and the right I think for a long
time people on the right side were probably more what's the word they
they're more fluent in the memes in a sense than people on the left word yeah because you would get a lot more uh people on
the right on places like 4chan and so it makes sense pepe eventually went over there and then
in in japan i don't know this might just be my racist mind talking but it seems like
uh i don't know it just seems like they like cute little mascots or turning like kind of
they just have little things.
That's how I saw it because it was just like, you know, the girl who got shot in the eye with a beanbag thing.
Yeah.
And they did the.
Yeah.
She's holding up a sign with Pepe with a patch over his eye and he's like doing this hands.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
I was just.
I saw more meme signs in the protest.
It always just kind of comes off as like cutesy to me.
It's just fucking. It's crazy. It's not the protests are being shot yeah you know the protests are just kind of so
cutesy you know but it's like they're using pepe visually much differently and rhetoric and like
their their rhetoric their way in using the image is different than the right the right used it as
like a kind of like a i wouldn't even say the
right used it was more of just kind of like it was used as a joke to see can we can is is our
political discourse so ridiculous that we can make this meme a hate crime essentially or like hate
speech and they've succeeded in making it a hate symbol well also what i wonder in terms of the
i think the blowback from that was like way too much.
Of course.
Like there's no reason it should be a hate symbol.
I think.
I think that.
Also the Pepe being used.
And I think.
They might not even understand like how it's used in America.
But they just have seen it with so much online.
But it's like, oh, if people see this.
It'll find its way around the internet even more.
I think they're using the meme
legitimately, whereas
it was used satirically
and in a way to...
It sounds weird
because I know we're
going deep on how Pepe was used
in different political climates.
I think being registered as a hate symbol
it's it's
interesting it's goofy because i think it's like if something's being used as a symbol by a like
a group that spews a lot of hate i can see how something could be classified as a hate symbol
uh but what's the difference like what's pepe it's i don't know 4chan, a lot of the times, will go on tirades of like, let's do this.
Kind of like this kind of prank on the media, in a sense.
Yeah.
And so I feel like a lot of that is out of the...
It's almost like, oh, you think we're like this?
We're going to act out like this and make you think that we are this.
Even though it's all a joke to us.
It's weird.
It's this weird back and forth
between... I also think there's better ways
I think that there's more pressing issues
in dealing with stuff like hate and white
supremacy. I don't think they want to solve any issues.
Than labeling Pepe as a
hate symbol. Because I remember when Pepe
was like a... I remember back in
way back in the day my friend showed me Pepe
and it was from this webcomic where he's like peeing
with his pants all the way down at the urinal and he says
feels good man
and that was I think that was the origin
maybe feels good it was like a panel
comic where he's like just pissing
at the urinal with his pants all the way down Pepe
is or one of the
characters I mean it shows that the classic Pepe
face and he's saying like feels good man
and then there was a feels bad man variation and then
it just got used as a
complete you know thing
well that doesn't sound too sweet
but you know what does? what?
honey. Today's show was brought to you by
honey the easiest way to save money
when you're shopping online
honestly before we found out about
honey seeing the promo code box
at checkout stressed us out
like should we be typing something in here
is there a code where i could save a a ton of of goofy money do you remember at the beginning of
super mega i there were so many diapy changes because you'd get to that that yeah and you would
just you'd shut down you'd go into this mode your eyes would roll back in your head diaper would be
full um drip diapy diapy full you couldn't even scream diapy change because you were so stressed eyes would roll back in your head. Diaper would be full. Drip dripping on the seat.
Diapy full.
You couldn't even scream diapy change because you were so stressed out.
Luckily, though, we did find honey.
Here's the thing.
Ryan was stressed because just knowing there could be a discount out there that he didn't
know about made him worry about overpaying every time he shopped online.
Thankfully, now we have honey.
It's a free tool that connects to your computer's browser.
As you're shopping, it scans the internet for coupon codes or other discounts, then like magic,
it applies the best one to your
car to checkout without you having to do a single thing.
It'll find you every coupon code, sale, or discount
on over 20,000 websites like Amazon,
J.Crew, eBay, Macy's, Sephora,
Nordstrom, and more.
Oh my gosh. So you might ask, Matthew,
how do I know honey has my back?
Does it really work?
Well, not only did honey test over 1 billion promo codes last year,
but it actually applied 185,067,086 working codes.
One more time?
Sorry.
185,000.
Wait.
Nope.
185 million.
A million.
185 million.
Holy shit.
185,067,086 working codes to people's orders.
That's a lot of real life savings.
Not to mention over 10 million people are already saving with Honey, and it's over 100,000 five-star reviews on the Google Chrome store.
Thanks to Honey, now there's literally no stress when I see that promo code box at checkout.
I was using Honey the other day.
I was ordering some planters for some
plants I was getting. Not planters, peanuts.
Like pots. Like plant planters.
And I got some real cool little ones
on Amazon and I got to save
myself a good, I think I saved
like six or seven bucks on those planters.
That's free money.
You know what? Honey is basically like a membership

Um, guys, lovely episode.

So I think we're going to have to wrap up
episode 156.

Yes, it is.

Goodbye.
Would you like to go take a shit with me?
Sure.
Because this is actually the last, real quick, guys,
I think this might be the last podcast we ever record in the Game Grumps office.
They're packing this room up.
No, yeah, it 100% is.
Oh, this is.
Yeah, it's the last podcast we're ever doing here.
So, well, we've done like 100-something episodes in this room.
I didn't realize it was the last time we were going to sit on this couch
and look at each other like this.
I know.
Now we'll, next week is when the sound paneling is coming?
Something like that.
We could get the podcast room set up pretty easy.
Yes.
It doesn't take much.
Yeah.
And also, guys, okay, so let me throw this out there.
The next few podcast episodes, who knows?
They might be recorded, like, in my bedroom or something.
So it might be a little more lo-fi, but just as fun.
And actually, despite the fact that grumps are moving offices,
they did install two toilets facing
each other in the bathroom last week, so Ryan
and I are going to go take a communal
shit, hold hands while we do it. You ready to
go, buddy? Let's do this. So signing off one last
time from the podcast
studio where we've been doing it for
how many fucking years and episodes?
About two years. Yeah. Or a little over two
years. I didn't even realize it was the last one. Wow.
I'm getting a little sad now.
Thank you to the Grumps
for allowing us to use this.
Thanks, Brent. Thanks, Aaron.
Thanks, Grumps Incorporated, for
giving us permission.
And for having us not have to pay rent
for recording in here.
Seriously, guys, thank you so much.
I'm gonna miss this couch. I'm gonna miss sitting in here staring at, thank you so much. I'm going to miss this couch.

staring at my good friend Ryan, and I'm also going to miss
how hot this room would get.
