i know you're gonna listen to that and your feelings are gonna be hurt she still listens
oh yeah she listens to every episode.
My mom does, too.
Hey, mom.
Hey, mom.
What's up?
I really wish you wouldn't listen to these.
I always say that to my mom.
But she explains it because I'm bad at communicating.
She explains it as like, I just get to hear your voice.
Exact same thing.
My mom's like, you ignore a lot of my text messages and stuff like that.
I'm a lot worse.
You ignore a lot of my text messages and stuff like that.
I'm a lot worse.
If your mom knew how the span of time my mom sometimes goes through because I'm a bad boy,
she would be begging for the way you text her again.
I call my mom multiple times a week still.
I'm bad.
I don't do that.
I need to do that.
I do text her here and there. I well you guys see the thing I'll go through
like there are some weeks where I'm
busy and I just don't really talk to my parents
it's mainly I don't talk to my dad as much
sometimes I'll go like
a week or two or three
without even talking to my dad on the phone at all
um but he never
seems to like be upset about
it I think he kind of gets it yeah my mom though
um i get it she's she's all lonesome and bored so yeah my dad's the same way her my sister he's
still like my my stepmom will text me and be like hey could you please give us a call soon it's been
a while i'm like fuck like not like fuck i have to call him it's like fuck I fucked up I'm shitty no same I know cause my well okay
if I don't respond to my sister
I don't have proof of this
but I'm pretty certain if I don't respond
to my sister she'll go and tell my
mom and my mom will be like he didn't respond
to me either your sister strikes me
as a mama's girl tattletale
yeah she
I'll frequently find things out uh like she said like it sounds like like from what
i've listened to there there are constant occasions where your sister will go to your
go to your mom about you in some way oh i'll tell my sister something and then my mom will bring it
up to me and i'll be like what i didn't tell you that. She's like, oh, Samantha told me. And I'm like, okay.
It's that sibling trust, that bond that never breaks.
Yeah, never breaks.
It's never anything like serious or like extreme.
It's just like little things.
It's like, oh, she told you that?
Okay.
If my sister knew the things my mom told me about her.
That's another can of worms. If she knew the things your mom told me about her.
What are you talking about?
Are you talking to my mom
regularly?
Not regularly, but on occasion.
That's weird.
Okay.
Your mom actually posted
on my Facebook wall recently, which I don't
use anymore.
Did you see I changed my
profile picture again on Facebook? Again to what? wall recently which i don't use anymore i did i changed my did you see i changed my profile
picture again on facebook wait again to what uh no it was to the oh did they really like a mustache
the face app picture yeah holy shit um i i so so we have facebook profiles you know from like way
back in the day that we never use ever in like high school no i don't i think it was still back
in high school i remember deleting facebook after a breakup because i was like i because i'm i was the type of person back then because you're young
you're filled with emotion it's everything's the end of the world and so it was uh my first
relationship i was in college and so i deleted facebook so as to like try to erase all sorry i
was in high school i deleted facebook to erase all just kind of like anything. I didn't want to see their face.
I didn't want to see them liking anything.
What was his name?
Dale.
Think you're funny?
Some of the comments say otherwise, but I generally like the theme that think that I'm somewhat humorous at times.
You're very funny. Funnier than me.
I think you're funny, too. I don't think I'm funnier than you.
I think you're way eons funnier than me.
I think you're more consistent than I am.
That's not true at all.
I feel the exact opposite.
Maybe we're both just insecure.
That's probably it. And we're both funny.
Yeah.
Or neither of us are funny.
That's a possibility, too.
Looks at screen as
the viewers are watching we're talking to you yeah you guys have bad taste but what are you
saying about we're saying facebook well if well if you continue to watch something you don't like
then you have bad taste yeah yeah because that means that you just you enjoy bad you'd like
like watching bad stuff for some reason yeah but not in like a fun way. No. Like when we watch bad stuff. It's definitely like. For funs and giggles.
But my.
Like Delta farce.
That's not bad.
That's not bad.
I was.
So yeah.
I don't use my Facebook anymore.
I'll log on.
Maybe like once a month.
Just to like.
See if I have any notifications.
Which I do.
And they're always just like.
Your friend you barely talked to in high school.
Just posted for the first time in a while.
Go check it out.
It's more reminding me to stay connected than actual people doing anything.
Yeah, it's just like that.
It's like someone posted on this page you follow.
And it's like, I don't care.
I liked Facebook when it was more kind of like a nice, close group knit of people, like friends that you've kind of garnered or like acquaintances you garnered seeing like photos seeing like their status i remember statuses were a big thing
statuses oh you post on someone's wall yeah remember that yeah but now it seems to be more
just kind of like a a tumblr with your family yeah it's just like people post videos people
post i'm gonna share just sharing now like my grandmother shares stuff all the time
and i and i sometimes i'll go and check her profile because it's always just kind of like it'll get political.
And then it'll just kind of just be like a cute dog or a cat.
So your mom posted on my wall, though, a video of a man being reunited with his cat after seven years.
And she said, don't.
She means well to me.
No, she means so well.
It's very sweet.
Everything she does is with good intentions.
And actually, I don't think I've addressed this on the podcast yet because I don't think we've recorded one since I've officially announced this.
Yeah.
Bad, sad news, guys.
My good little boy, Banana, is no longer with us.
Very, very rough month for me since that that happened but he he
disappeared at the beginning of January and never came home so that's all that's
all I really got to say about that he was he was chasing the big mice and red
laser in the sky and the the thing is, I know,
but there is a possibility
he isn't dead,
but it's been
about two months now
and he hasn't come home
and it's coyote season.
Yeah.
And I don't want to,
you know,
make assumptions,
but I think it's safe
to say that,
you know,
that book is closed.
And if it reopens, it does for now it's yeah i'm i just
can't i i need i need like closure for myself so i had to you know i don't keep talking about this
though it's gonna make me choke up like a little like a little bitch yeah i was i was i was i was
getting kind of uh nervous i was like oh no he's gonna start getting emotional he's gonna start
crying it's gonna be awkward but dude i hope that I hope this experience, like it doesn't, I hope you're not afraid
to adopt cats in the future.
Absolutely.
Because it's very important.
Like there's a lot of cats that need a home and Banana like was a very fat, well-fed dude
and he wouldn't have been.
Started out as a little stray in Culver City.
And he wouldn't have been that way if like he wasn't adopted.
So it's like, I always think like, you know.
He was an asshole.
Yes.
Like, he was definitely an asshole.
But he was my asshole.
Exactly.
You know.
He was our asshole for a while when we were together.
He did put up with Uncle Ryan quite a bit until the bitter end.
Yeah.
Because the last time I tried to pick him up, he got really mad at me.
He got real mad.
Yeah.
You were like, hey, buddy, remember me? He picked him up up but he was not happy because usually i could go pet him or something but he
tenses up and like gets his neck he didn't like visitors that much but he doesn't he never hissed
at me randomly yeah he's tucker a lot he hated tucker yeah well for good reason tucker would
antagonize him a lot yeah um but banana had a wonderful life uh very fantastic life and i'm i'm very happy that
uh i was able to give him a very happy life uh well-fed spoiled sweet sweet little sweet little
life and a fat big fat boy and you know what if he is still alive i hope wherever he is he's happy
maybe some other family just I don't think so.
I don't think anyone would be able to get Banana.
He's probably chilling on his throne and on top of a thing of garbage.
You know, I'm going to look real stupid if one day he just walks back through the cat door like three months from now.
And I'm going to have to be like, guys, Banana's actually not dead.
Honestly, I would love that.
He has a great set of tits now.
A beautiful set of tits.
Yeah, he has a great set of tits now a beautiful set of tits yeah he had beautiful
implants put on but i would like i would i would definitely uh you know i want that but of course
it's it's hard to keep hoping it's always it's always the whole uh when you lose someone you
even with with pets with friends regardless it's like when you lose something you yearn
for that feeling of either coming home to them because it feels a little more full or it's
lonesome at night just their presence just watch like you know you hear it's home to them because it feels a little more full or it's lonesome at night. Just their presence. Just why is like, you know, you hear it's,
it's like a, it's a stereotype at this point, right? Where it's like, ah, I just,
I just always like look at the door and it's like, ah, I could see them walking right through.
Well, that's how I feel because I'd always hear him come through the cat door and I'll be in the
kitchen like late at night by myself. And I'll look at the cat door and I'm like, ah, fuck.
I just want to hear it open. I just want to see him come through. But it's a, that's life, I guess is what it is. And I'm very thankful
for all the time I got with him. And I'm thankful for everyone that did beautiful fan art throughout
the years and sent him gifts. Um, he loved everything, um, and played with everything
you guys sent. Um, and I sent and I'm really appreciative that
he got a life that so many people could
watch and enjoy and
I guess that's all I got to say about that
rest in peace buddy
you can still go see his cute fucking face
yeah I'm glad that it's documented
we can go and slam him
into a door in a vlog
yeah put him in a bag and slam
him against a wall yeah it's not real
guys for the people that no don't break sorry i don't want to break the so i don't but yeah back
let me get back to facebook what i was saying is facebook um i i really want to delete my facebook
but they kind of got got me with that thing where it's like now you use facebook to sign
into a lot of really connected to a bunch of bullshit accounts where it's like, now you use Facebook to sign into a lot of really random things.
It's connected to a bunch of bullshit accounts where it's like,
I don't want to put my email with this or whatever.
Yeah, it's like, oh, it's easy.
Just click sign in Facebook.
I'm pretty sure my Spotify is through Facebook.
I'm like, I don't want to.
I just want to, like, I just don't want Facebook anymore.
And I don't use it.
But I remember like some viewers went through once
and just like got all my old like pictures from middle school and high school and like post them.
And I was like, come on.
Back before you privated your page.
Yeah.
And I was like, don't, don't be uncool.
Just.
That isn't, that was an interesting turn.
Just let me live my life.
Where I felt like I had to turn my Facebook private.
Yeah.
It was of course immediately kind of of I think after I met Mark.
But it's like a very stark difference.
Like before, it's just no one gave a shit.
No one was searching for me unless I went to school with them or something.
And then when you enter the scope of YouTube, people tend to latch themselves on to some of the stuff that you don't understand.
One of that stuff is like I still like I don't know if you have it but i still i'm just kind of like oh wow people like the content or
that i make regardless of it no it's a podcast or a sketch i'll have you know like that uh
those classic moments where you're laying awake in the middle of the night and your brain for
some reason always wants to go to uh anxiety thoughts it's always like i i just
get this guilt where i'm like why why the fuck do people watch me like i don't i don't find myself
funny i there's so many other talented people out there that are funny well it comes down to like i
wouldn't watch me and i compare myself to all these other creators i know that are like legitimately
funny and i'm like fuck like why are people following me like I don't deserve this and it's not going to last.
It's going to go away because people are going to realize I'm not funny.
Well, you're right.
One day that will come.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, that's inevitable.
And I think that's going into it.
That's something we've always known is like, you know, one day we won't be relevant anymore.
That's okay.
Because in a way that-
Y'all are relevant now?
That's not bad i think
becoming irrelevant no because it there will be a day i guess one day where we return to kind of
like we're also not in the general sphere of people's knowledge i think i don't think the
average person knows our names our existence or anything like that yeah not the old average joe
but uh a lot of people are online knows who Your average Joe knows who Jack Septiceye is.
Yeah, of course, dude.
Maybe.
I don't know.
He was on a – dude, your average Joe knows Markiplier.
He was on Larry King.
He was.
Multiple times.
He was on Seth Meyers.
It's because I know these people where I can't put myself in the mind of kind of like a stranger to them in the general public.
Yeah, Yeah. Like when I see, when I see Finn Wolfhard in a movie trailer, it's just,
it's like weird, you know, I was going to go see a movie though. I was seeing a movie and I was
about to go into the theater and you know, you're about to turn your cell phone off and shit. And I
got a, I got a text from him and he's like, Hey man, uh, do you want to play Call of Duty? And
I was just kind of like, I was like, I just had to wrap my head around it just because um it's such a weird thing that like i know all of these people who are
successful in their own right um and they're so just kind of like closely knit through youtube
like uh finn does do live streams with his brother sometimes but like he he generally is known for
net from netflix and film
yeah i mean like so but how that intersects into youtube is still just crazy because
it it never works out predictably um for example like lily sing she did a talk show and i don't
feel like it's gotten a lot of critical claim. She did a talk
show? She has one. Does she
still? I think it might have been
renewed for season two.
I watched some clips from it. They put her in the
graveyard time slot too just because
she's a new show. They don't even film
in the NBC studio. They film in like
a separate thing. Her garage.
Probably. It's like a set. I think it's
near where Buzz buzzfeed is filmed
where they film it but it was buzzfeed in hollywood i think so i've driven past their
office before it's just it's it's like a glass box you can just see inside like all the people
at their desks yeah like wow all those people are just writing nonsense right now it's like you'll
you'll you see kind of certain youtubers being accepted by the general public and then i'm like
oh youtubers are being accepted by the general public. And then I'm like, Oh, YouTubers are being accepted by the general public.
But then when they step out into what has been dictated as a certain type of
mainstream medium,
like her live show,
it's still her live show,
her talk show,
late night show.
It just fails.
It like falls flat on.
That's really interesting to me.
Yeah.
How I think that.
It could also be because of the quality and.
Yeah.
You know, all that.
Because I feel confident enough in our abilities, at least, that I think if you and I made something
beyond YouTube, whether it was a pilot or something, we would be able to break free
from the like, oh, YouTubers make a TV pilot.
Because I feel like because from our start, you know.
I just make something I was I was happy with.
Exactly.
I don't want to make something that makes money. I don't want to make some. Well, was happy with exactly i don't want to make something that makes money i don't want to make some well i mean of course i
want to make something that makes money but i don't that's not my main my main thing is i want
something that i can feel i want to say at one point i stepped out and i did this thing and
regardless of uh the the critic acclaim i guess i did it like i don't want that's an achievement
of itself yes but i would still care about the quality of the product. Like, it's not just to say that I
created a TV show at the same time, but it's like, I think it's an important project sometimes that
well, it's important. Sorry. Let me rephrase that. It's important sometimes to take on these
projects. Um, because like with you, with music videos, you put yourself out of your comfort zone
where you normally, um, have more, you know, you're working with people
that you're familiar with, with me, with people that you're not, you're not, you don't have to
really, I guess, kind of impress in a way, but when you're doing music videos, it is more of,
it is definitely a hangout session, but you also have, you have more of, I feel like when you're
directing, you have more of a, like there's more going on in your mind. You have to keep track of
more stuff because you're, you're keeping track of like the actors that you,
that you hired to come.
You you're thinking of,
uh,
it's stressful.
The,
uh,
the,
the talent itself.
You're thinking of the choreography.
You're thinking of,
uh,
the cameraman.
Everyone,
everyone,
it's like everyone has to be pleased.
Whereas if you and I are just shooting a sketch,
you and I just have to be in a good mood.
Yeah,
exactly.
I mean,
directing music videos is,
is really fun. Um, and creatively I mean, directing music videos is really fun
and creatively fulfilling for sure,
but it's stressful.
Also, the back end of creating music videos can be-
So much fucking work has to go into it.
And I have several still that aren't out yet
for clearances with like Sony and stuff.
It's a whole thing.
A lot of shit has to go on behind the scenes.
You can't just make a music video and drop it.
You have to talk to lawyers and,
uh,
agents and stuff like that.
This has to be here.
Is this okay?
But like stuff like that.
So that's why there hasn't been that much stuff on lazy eye,
but there's more coming,
but still go check it out.
Lazy eye on Instagram,
Twitter,
lazy eye.com and at lazy on everything.
Yeah.
Uh,
it's in the sidebar.
It's also in your bio, I think,
right? Yeah, it's in my bio. Yeah.
I do that with those Tucker boys. But
I feel like what's
most important to me in creating
something is
because
I'll break it down to an even deeper level.
People want money because money brings
you happiness, right?
Or that's the-
That's the general thought.
That's the general thought about money.
So it's like, if we're gonna make a TV show
and it makes lots of money, that would bring us happiness.
What brings me a bigger happiness than money
is making something that I feel
really passionately proud about.
Like this is good.
And that brings me a lot more happiness than money would.
So I think that when I make something,
it's more important to achieve that feeling
than achieve like, oh, it's making a lot of money.
Of course, money's nice.
Everyone loves money.
But like, not even like personal accomplishments
is like, cause the music video thing,
it is a big in scope and it's a lot to pull off.
And people might be like, well, I couldn't step out.
It's something as small.
It can be something as small as getting a new hobby yeah you could it like there there's so many different levels but i
think it's important um for you to find i guess what personally fulfills you uh because otherwise
you'll just kind of be in that nine to five headspace well with regardless to whether you're
working a nine to five job you start to your days start to progress in more of a spin. They progress in kind of like this fog where because
you're doing all these actions over and over again, waking up at the same time, going to the
same place, doing the same things over and over again. Like it's a good catalyst. Yeah. I mean,
it, it, it, I feel like that makes time go by faster because you're just, at least for me, it does.
If I'm ever in that fall.
Because things do blur together.
Days begin to just kind of blur together.
And that's why it's important to get hobbies and stuff.
Well, that's why like it's.
Everyone needs hobbies.
Yeah.
Even more than hobbies.
If you have a passion, go after it.
Maybe not give up everything in pursuit of it
because you have to
judge life as as it's handed to you but if you have a passion work on it from afar do stuff that
like if you have a passion for acting like fucking join a like go into like a there's a small theater
group probably nearby that you could try to join yeah and usually those people regardless of the
hierarchies that are a part of every uh, there are like friendships to make and there are like bonds to have.
I guess what I – a way I would look at it is at the end of your life, looking back, if you were asked, did you do like all of the stuff that you wanted to do and could have done?
Like I have a very specific vision of myself in my head of what I what would what's the best version of how I want to be.
So it's kind of like I want to be able to at the end of my life, look back and be like, I at least partially achieve that, you know.
So it's like think about the person you want to be and
then just make small steps to do that because you will be happier it's just it's not easy you know
and life gets in the way but you gotta try gotta try a little bit and uh don't put yourself down
if you are in a creative rut or just in a in a in a in a down rut because it's, I'm not, it's like, it always passes, but
it, uh, it's just, uh, if, if you start owning the mentality that this is all life can be,
you're going to not really see the cracks that you can break through to, to be happier,
you know, whatever. Like, so one of those things for me that I know is obvious is smoking.
It's like, that is something that I see would make me happier if I quit and all this other stuff.
And it's just kind of like, I just need to get there.
And I struggle with it all the time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I, as long as I can still like see it, like, oh, I, as long as I can still have like days where I'll like go without them and I'll be proud of myself a little bit.
I'm still working.
Small steps, man.
In terms of whatever.
But yeah, these lungs still fill with ash, baby.
Oh yeah.
It's patchy on the back.
That would be terrifying.
You know what would convince, you know, I actually think would convince you to stop
smoking. What we should do. Go take pictures of my lungs. Let's go. We should go to a lung doctor. That would be terrifying. You know what I actually think would convince you to stop smoking?
What we should do?
Go take pictures of my lungs.
We should go to a lung doctor.
Well, I told Justin that the next time I win a solo victory royale in Fortnite, I will quit smoking.
Really?
Yeah.
Would you go to the doctor with me to get x-rays taken?
Sure.
Would you really?
I don't know what it has to do with Fortnite, but okay.
No, like to see your lungs? Oh, yeah, I would. Would you really? I don't know what it has to do with Fortnite, but okay. No, like to see your lungs?
Oh yeah, I would. Would you?
Yeah. I think that might. That's probably
definitely a big kick in the
pants to quit, I would imagine. You'd be like, uh-oh.
Yeah, I need to. I'm
fucking almost 30. The best thing about smoking is you can't see
the damage it's doing, you know? You can only
feel the wonderful tingles that it creates.
The wonderful tingles of nicotine.
Nicotine's addictive as fuck, man.
Yeah, it is, baby.
Yeah, baby.
I was hard on that fucking Juul.
You remember how much I Juul'd?
Oh, yeah.
And it made me break out in acne.
It gave me horrible.
Dude, when I would drop it and then pick it up again and then drop it and then pick it up again, the habit, not the actual Juul.
the habit, not the actual jewel.
I remember I would notice,
because I would go long periods of time without nicotine,
like a couple of weeks without juuling.
And then I'd do it heavy for a couple of weeks.
And I always noticed immediately after starting again,
my general anxiety, like, you know,
the type of anxiety that feels like a buzz in your stomach and you're trying to figure out why you're anxious.
You're like, there's gotta be some reason I'm anxious. Like something that's in my mind.
It's like a very fast fluttering of the heart and you feel weak. You're just like,
why do I feel? And you don't feel happy. You feel like you're just like on the precipice of
about to go down on a, you're not taking the plunge on a roller coaster, but it's the precipice of
like, oh, you know, something's coming, but you don't know what that thing is. It's like an impending doom feeling.
Yeah.
And I noticed that when I would do nicotine, that would just suddenly be so horrible all
day, every day.
And then when I quit, that would go away.
So quitting nicotine was really good for my, and I did, I had a, I had a, I remember, of
course, cause we had that podcast episode called We Quit Smoking way back in the day
when we did.
We did. But then we did. We did.
But then, of course.
We did for a bit.
I know exactly what happened.
The first downfall was we were like, oh, when we go to Japan.
Oh, it was Japan.
We're on vacation.
We can smoke cigarettes on vacation because it's vacation.
And then, of course.
Japan was the downfall.
It was the downfall because it's like, I remember we got back and you're like, whoa, I still got half a pack.
I'm just going to finish this pack.
And then, then, you know, oh, this pack's almost done.
Ah, just one more pack.
One more.
So I can have one last full pack in LA.
And then I have that.
And I'm like, oh, it's, it's, it's, it's Thursday.
How about I quit on Monday?
Yeah.
It's like, I'll start the week fresh.
Yep.
And then it gets to Monday.
Like you get through Monday and then you get, you come to Tuesday and you're like,
oh, I'm starting it.
I'm starting, you know, I haven't smoked.
I'm great.
Things are good.
And all of a sudden you'll just kind of eat a lot and you'll be like, oh, someone smokes
on a movie screen.
You'll be like, that was a big one for me was I found myself like subconsciously if
I'm watching a movie and I had my Juul, when someone would be smoking, I'd suddenly be
like, oh, I'm hating this without even thinking about it and jewel jeweling I definitely you know
you're free of nicotine I am fully free of nicotine now I have not jeweled I can't remember the last
time I jeweled or did nicotine and it feels great um I have more energy throughout the day yeah uh
and it's easier to wake up but um I mean the last time I jeweled was uh Christmas my brother-in-law
had a jewel and I ripped it.
And I took a picture on a moped where I was ripping it and people didn't like that.
Like, he's lying to us.
He's jeweling again.
I think some people miss, of course, not everyone's going to watch every video we do.
So when we say that we quit and all of a sudden it's like we're just doing it again.
They don't get the in-between of some of the podcasts where we're like, fuck, I'm back on.
And it is a struggle.
It's an addiction.
So we're only human. still no excuse to be a little
bitch and keep smoking though yeah
absolutely I'm talking to myself
and anyone who smokes motherfuckers
well I really I love reading comments
from people saying that like
I think a big motivation is you know seeing
comments from people that say like you guys inspired
me to quit smoking some people yeah I know
and I hate that and I feel bad i feel guilty because like they made that move because i started and then
you kept smoking yeah i mean use that as motivation like you know like i think that's a that's a great
motivator and i think that fortnight dub is the better motivator yeah that's the best not the
picture of your lungs not the just the fortnight dub yeah you know it's an even better i mean i
made i made justin the fortnight promise that dude if you made justin the fortnight promise i can't go back on that you can't break like here's the thing though you know what's an even better one? I made Justin the Fortnite promise. Dude, if you made Justin the Fortnite promise.
I can't go back on that.
You can't break that promise.
Here's the thing, though.
You know what that means?
I'm quitting probably within a month.
Right.
Here's the thing, man.
Because I'm going to get that dub.
I'm going to get that dub.
You will.
And the truth about addiction is if you tell yourself, oh, I'm going to quit on this date,
it's not going to happen.
Yeah.
You have to quit immediately.
The moment I get that dub.
There's no better moment to quit than right now.
It's like, you have to just be like,
nope, nope, I'm throwing the rest of the cigarettes away.
That's it, I'm done.
And then just go from there
because you're never going to be ready.
If you're addicted to something,
you're never going to be ready to not be addicted.
Can you imagine me?
I'm in second place and I'm like,
fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. And all of a sudden i'm like i just like just drop the controller on the
ground i'm like oops that was stressful i need a cigarette i almost got one so stressful i guess
another cigarette will calm me how do you i mean you don't have to answer this how many do you
smoke a day on average um let me let me let me think like are you like a pack a day or half a pack a day
I'd say honestly
anywhere between 5 and 10
5 and 10 cigarettes
that's a lot
so that's like a fourth to half a pack a day
my grandpa
who I never met because he passed away before I was born
but he started smoking at like 12
and
he smoked his whole life
and I think he would smoke like three
packs a day that's 60 cigarettes a day he'd wake up that sounds gross to me he's one of the types
of people that you know because i don't i don't i don't necessarily enjoy smoking a cigarette i
mean there are things that i like about it but like every time i'm smoking i do kind of like
get this kind of like gagginess to me. Cigarettes are disgusting. They taste awful, man.
And some people tell me-
And you feel and smell gross afterwards too.
I know somebody that smokes cigarettes,
but they don't inhale it.
They just have it in their mouth like a cigar.
And they're like, I just like the taste.
I'm like, no, you don't.
That's disgusting.
I feel like they do it because it looks cool.
Like you don't want to,
I mean, smoking a cigarette looks pretty cool, right?
Like-
Yeah, but smokers know when someone's not inhaling. Well, okay. You know what I mean? Like, like now I used to smoke cigarettes
with him and, uh, you know, I was like, I would inhale. And then only later I find out he didn't
inhale. And I was like, so I've been the only one smoking this whole time actually. And like,
give me myself a worse nicotine addiction. Cause you can tell when someone, cause like in movies,
like if someone's not a smoker
and they don't want to smoke,
it's in a,
it's in an old Louis episode.
You can see the cloud
is different if they inhale it.
In a Louis episode,
someone's smoking,
she's just going,
essentially,
it's just,
but I hate,
because I don't,
I don't feel like
when people smoke,
they,
they,
I mean, they don't have
enough time to just like put it in their lungs and blow it out like that you can tell when someone's
like actually like you know what i hate this is this talk is making me want a cigarette too bad
you're not having it no i know i'm not and and if it if it made anyone else want a cigarette
sorry we're not don't do it we're not doing it. Please don't do it. Here's what, I was told this once about addiction.
And this is really, I think a really great way to frame it.
Let's say you quit smoking
and you really, really fucking want a cigarette so bad
and you're fighting that urge
and you know it will pass.
Like, you know, every time that urge happens
and you fight it off,
that was some of the addiction leaving you.
Because you won.
You beat it.
You beat that little chunk of the addiction clawing at your back.
And once you get past that, it's like, all right, it's never going to be.
Next one won't be as bad because that was part of that addiction leaving my body.
And I won.
I mentally progressed in my healing path of addiction.
And that goes for all addictions, not just like porn, alcohol, drugs.
Porn epic.
Porn is epic.
Naked people are nice.

So, hey guys, so if that was any indication, fuck the serious parts of this podcast.
It's goofy time.
Hey, classic Sumega fashion.
Talk about some real deep serious shit and then immediately go straight into talking about farts and funny poo-poo.
It's great.
It's our staple.
It's our style, man.
That is our style.
That's our staple, right? Yeah. That's what you just said and I just repeated it. It's okay. Your's our style man that is our style that's our staple right yeah
that's what you just said and i just repeated it it's okay your hair looks wild right now dude
because i took my hat off your hair's looking great man it's it's getting long so i have to
it's getting in that awkward stage of not it's not long long but it's getting it's growing yeah
it's getting in that stage where i have to wear hats and beanies or else i look like a fucking doofus from medieval times i am so uh i love that that
was a an era of super mega the bald era where we both fully shaved very short period of time but
um for everyone that got to be a part of that and why like you're witnessing an era right now that
we'll all look back on one day where we we shaved our heads and both of us shaved our heads right yeah yeah houston we shaved them bald on stage second show first show oh yeah
oh yeah never mind because we were like god damn why didn't we do that for the last show i know
and then the rest of the tour we're fucking bald as shit and think about these people that that
buy a meet and greet ticket because they're so excited to like finally meet us and take a picture
and they they didn't see the news and they just see these two bald fucks and we looked bad bald i like at the time i rationalized it to myself but
i go back i look at the pictures and i'm like jesus christ i you looked all right i got mine
i got mine cleaned up at a sports clips nearby i didn't i i just uh i was just like it's i have
to get it even because if i'm gonna start growing growing it out, I just got to. Jackson's cousin shaved my head.
Yes.
After the last show.
You have to have it shaved again.
Yeah.
After the last show.
But the worst part was there was one little part in the front that she kind of missed.
So it grew.
So I had to try to shave myself, but then it was uneven.
It was.
But our hair is back now.
Like I could say our hair is fully normal.
Oh, yeah.
Like it's not as long as it was before because remember I swoop it over and then it comes down.
I'm going to have to grow it a little longer for that.
But I would say that both of us, our hair is back to a normal length.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Mine's definitely, I mean, my hair's, you typically, I'd say for the most part in the beginning of Super Mega, at least, been shorter than it is now.
Yeah.
And I've definitely had shorter hair too.
I'm trying to, like like just let my hair kind
of just grow out and get messy same like that's a good it's a good same baby i used to really care
about like doing it up just right but fuck i just let it do what it does it's the it's it's the i
don't care look except for me it's the hat head look your hair you always think your hair looks
bad when it really doesn't thanks man your hair just, it has so much volume, dude. Really?
Yes.
Your hair, Ryan, you've seen my thin ass hair, bro.
I like it.
It's nice.
Thank you.
Looks very soft and nice to the touch.
It is very soft. I think that shaving my head was actually good because I've noticed my hair has come
back more full than it was.
I don't know why, but my hair grew back like fuller,
a little bit thicker
and actually a little bit darker.
It's,
I think it's darker than it used to be.
It looks,
it looks darker.
But also,
it just feels healthier
when I run my hands through it.
You did like,
bleach your hair essentially,
one time
and it was just lighter for a long time.
Yeah.
And actually,
in a way it felt good
to just kind of like reset my head
and fully, if I had known it. Reset my head. I mean, in a way, it felt good to just kind of like reset my head and fully.
Reset my head.
I mean, we did.
We reset our heads, bro.
If I had known that it would take
four months to grow back
to a decent state,
I probably wouldn't have done it.
But you know what?
I was in solidarity with my bro.
That clip's online
if you guys want to go find it.
Someone filmed it and posted it.
It was wild.
It's when we shaved our heads on stage.
Actually, if we have the audio,
hold on a second.
I would like to, I want to put some live shows
on Patreon because I just found the files.
And if we have the one for Houston, I can
cut that up and put it on Patreon with the
intro and everything.
What I'm most excited about for putting the live shows on Patreon
is everyone on there can see the
actual intro and all the videos that we worked so hard hard on for the show because the last the texas
tour was definitely uh the most cohesive because we had we had like a lot of a lot of bits that uh
were recurring throughout is everything okay
if that was completely unexpected then we i just knocked off a piece on the Super Mega 2020 bingo set.
What?
I don't know.
This thing on our subreddit.
The bingo?
Yeah.
Did you just knock one off?
Maybe.
It says something completely unexpected.
So if the person who made the bingo board was expecting a fart, then I guess they can't knock it off.
Well, also, you got me because you were looking at your phone and you looked really tense.
I think for that they wanted, like, something grand, like something that, oh, something that we're not expecting.
A movie!
That counts.
That counts.
I think it counts.
I'm making, as co-founder of Super Mega, that I'm making the executive decision that that counts, the bingo board.
We've actually been hitting that bingo board real hard.
Not even intentionally.
What?
This also says, I want to see if we can knock off another one.
Somebody made a bingo board on the SuperMega subreddit for 2020.
And we've just been kind of knocking pieces off.
I know.
There's some on there I don't think are going to happen at all this year, though.
Maybe.
Ryan or Matt get nude for some reason.
Haven't we been nude again or not completely nude this year not fully nude in a video uh but if we do it on the podcast does it
count no they're they're good they like well i'm still thinking that's something completely
unexpected what i did like two minutes ago well you scared me i thought something was wrong because
you were looking very like stern at your phone and then you slowly looked up at me and i was like
what what's wrong that's why i asked i was like, what? What's wrong? That's why I asked. I was like, is everything okay?
Yeah.
Well, I think that's all we can knock off here.
But I just thought I'd cheat.
Also, Drunk Drawing and Mailroom have made it back in action, baby.
Drunk Drawing is, I think, the format that we've kind of always wanted it.
But we just you just workshop until you finally get the right one.
I have,
this one feels,
this one feels a lot more fun because at the same time as we're having fun, we're also paying in a weird way,
homage to the culture or to whatever we're doing around that subject.
So like with Fortnite,
you know,
we edit it in a way that's going to be the,
I would like that to kind of keep going where we kind of,
you know, pay tribute to whatever we're doing doing regardless of if we actually like it or not
yeah yeah of course and and like i i love the new format like the sec the segment with jack
that's perfect yeah it's every episode he's gonna make themed drinks for us and on and if you're and
if you're a patreon member uh he posts the full recipe with like a cute little recipe card on the
patreon an artist to do like a nice drawing of each drink.
As well as for each drunk drawing, there's always going to be, I think, three Patreon exclusives.
The recipe card.
So you can make the drink at home.
So you can make the drink at home.
The full res versions of the drawings.
Yep.
And.
And.
An extra drawing.
An extra clip.
After the cameras, after the episode ends, we go and we do an additional drawing. An extra clip. After the episode ends,
we go and we do an additional drawing for Patreon.
Yeah.
And because it's Patreon,
we don't really have to worry about
censoring ourselves too much.
And we can...
The last one...
You got nervous for the drawing of this one
because you didn't want to step on anyone's toes.
I did.
You didn't want to make a Fortnite man mad.
A certain somebody associated with Fortnite, Jackson, gave him a lot of acne.
And I might have removed it.
People are going to be upset.
Release the full version.
You censored it.
And then it's going to be a huge deal when I release it.
And then he's going to see it and be like, what the fuck?
And then block me.
People can't post our content from Patreon
yeah that's true Ninja would have to pay 5 bucks
oh 2
5 bucks ain't nothing to Ninja
also uh yeah but we do
we do an extra clip usually like
5 to 10 minutes of uh
bonus drawing that we all work together on
we also recently just put out the new
Q&A video yeah new Q&A video on Patreon
and uh
oh i i had an idea i wanted to run by you actually for future mailroom videos
and i'm sure people will love this is uh because you know when making stop breathing
when we're making our videos are very fast paced and cut up and we get a lot of mail that doesn't
make it in the videos and that's because you know. And that's because we're trying to be goofy.
Oh, and something I want to say.
I feel bad because we touched up this mail video.
It was edited by Prezzo.
So he doesn't kind of – this isn't a mistake on Prezzo's part at all.
It's just either we didn part at all it's just we
either we didn't say or it's not in the video
we didn't thank the people
who sent us Tim's or we said
thank you but we didn't like address them directly
but uh thank you
if you sent us Tim's fucking cause that's
expensive I know it might have just gotten cut
out we finally got the Tim's
yeah and we have a lot of mail sitting right now
for we're gonna do another mail video next week we're trying to actually get uh mail videos out like very
frequently uh because we used to just do it like every other month but now that we we're we're
currently building a more permanent mailroom set because right now we're filming in the recording
room uh but we have a lot of stuff on the way to build like a nicer set uh and my idea for the
mailroom thing is because we don't show a lot
of the stuff we get because like people will send in like a little doodle of us or something and
if we put all of that in it would be too long of a video and people for the mailrooms they're crazy
so people usually just want to see like the insane stuff we get well i feel bad and you have to cut
it down to make it cohesive like video but i feel bad not including that. And you have to cut it down to make it a cohesive video. But I feel bad not including that stuff because we genuinely appreciate it.
So I was thinking at the end of every mail room, we can do a little thing where it's
a special thanks and we can show all the fan art we got, all the smaller things that didn't
make it into the bit.
Like a little slideshow.
It's like...
Yeah.
Like with some music and a special thanks and thanking everyone that sent...
It's like, check out the other stuff we got. honestly uh i'm gonna tell matt a secret real quick uh
well matt knows my secret now so that's a hefty secret man yeah i can't believe you have not told
me that before well now you know i do know and it's honestly i kind of wish you have not told me that before. Well, now you know. I do know. And it's honestly, I kind of wish you hadn't told me that because it does change my view of you.
Sorry, not sorry.
And the fact that you're not sorry about it is what's, I think, most alarming.
Cry about it.
I might actually.
This is very disturbing to find something out about my best friend like that.
Boo hoo, boo hoo, boo hoo.
And the fact that you're treating this as some sort of joke.
Stop.
Stop doing the.
What am I doing?
What am I doing?
A baby crying motion.
What is that? What does that even look like?
It's ear going like wah wah. What is that
motion even look like? You stuck your bottom
lip out. Yeah you're doing it right now.
Stop. And he's pretending to cry like
a little baby.
Don't do that man. Maybe you're just looking in the
mirror. Fucking hell man.
When's it gonna stop? When's it gonna fucking stop?
Who's calling me? I'm getting a call from
your sister. Malibu, California.
I'm going to answer this.
Sorry, guys.
That was a call about a...
I have AIDS.
That's basically it, just to put it in layman's terms.
Not a big deal, though.
Not anymore.
It's perfectly treatable now.
Yeah.
There's no reason anyone should be terrified of the disease.
No one should be scared of AIDS.
But you should definitely be upset if someone doesn't tell you they have it and you have relations with them.
Why?
Because it's fucked up.
It's like if you...
But yeah, but if it's perfectly treatable, then why does it matter?
Like if you have an ST...
Well, gonorrhea is treatable, but I don't think you would want to...
Go get checked.
That's all. I just want to okay just because some of the gags we do on super mega might have transmitted the aids from your mouth you know what gags i'm talking about oh
the ones that yeah yeah yeah i know i know i know i know what you're talking about yes you don't have to fucking yes thank you good check though um yeah well i i've i've been having a
a nice little week i went i saw chapo trap house live last night very very funny fellas they're
the patreon kings i think they have about the top patreon out there i've just been trying to
knock movies down on my watch list yeah you've been watching hella movies man yeah what are you at on a letterbox go check out ryan's letterbox account he reviews
oh yeah every fucking movie he's ever seen well i i i've i've tried to collect all the movies i've
ever seen there's some of course that i'm missing because they either have escaped my mind or i need
to go through a list and find it it's it's on there damn i i tried to rate every movie to my
recollection of like what i thought of it at the time.
And the thing is, those ratings can change if I rewatch it and my opinion changes type of thing.
But I do.
I started a little diary because I thought it would be nice starting in 2020.
A little diary?
What are you, a five-year-old girl?
Well, it's called a diary in the app.
And you can keep track of all the movies you've seen.
Right about the boys you have crushes on?
All the movies you've seen throughout the year.
And I thought it was pretty nice that I can look
back and say that I saw a double feature
of 1917 and Delta Farce
on the 1st of January with my friend
Matt. That is
very sweet. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been mean about that,
but, wait, I want to play a game.
Okay, first of all, when I
saw that you had done
that many movies, I was
astonished. Because I want toished I was like I can't
keep track of everything I've ever watched and then have a
long list like for this is
the ratings are for me personally yeah
and if I like if I was at gunpoint
and someone gave me a pen and paper and was like write down
a thousand
you go through all the lists that you
like you can
make lists and just go through it and
that's how I added a lot of the movies I'm like I remember that I watched that oh so you didn't just like think of each movie off the top no through it and that's how I added a lot of the movies
I'm like I remember that I watched that
oh so you didn't just think of each movie off the top of your head
okay that's what I thought you did and I was like
you're a machine dude
so can I name a movie and see if it's on there
Rugrats in Paris
uh hold on
Rugrats in Paris it is on there
so you already reviewed it
well I rated it yes
fuck man I'm gonna give you a real obscure one Ferris. It is on there. So you already reviewed it? Yeah. Well, I rated it. Yes. You rated it. Yeah. Yeah.
Fuck, man.
I'm gonna give you a real obscure one.
Okay.
Hold on.
Let me think.
Did you ever watch Meet Dave?
The Eddie Murphy movie where there's a bunch of little.
No.
Damn it.
I saw bits and pieces.
Norbit.
Is Norbit on there?
Of course Norbit's on there.
Good.
Good.
What'd you give Norbit?
You're not gonna like what I gave Norbit.
It's your opinion. I gave it a star. here's the thing here's the thing like when I rate something even half a star
to a star like that doesn't mean that I can't like I like I personally enjoy sometimes like
really shitty movies but like I would never recommend these like I wouldn't recommend to
the average person like it being realistic like I think Delta farce is hilarious,
but I think it's because of the environment I grew up with.
And it's also because of our humor.
We connect with it because it's just stupid,
funny,
not,
not that we actually think the comedy is funny,
but we think that the,
the,
the,
the gay panic comedy is really funny.
Yes.
It's hilarious.
But like,
I would never recommend that to like my friends to be like,
Oh my God,
dude,
you should,
you should watch Delta farce. It's actually pretty funny, like i would i wouldn't do that i enjoy it in my own
right that's a movie where you get high with your friends and watch it because of how bad it is
that's not like a legitimate when you saw in theaters too right oh yeah and people i love that
you saw that in theater wasn't it for your birthday yeah i think so i think my dad took me
for my you always every time like shark boy and lava girl i saw for my birthday i saw that click
for my birthday i saw saw Click for my birthday.
I saw it in theaters with my dad.
My dad fell asleep.
I remember looking over, he was asleep
with his little cardboard 3D glasses on.
Yeah, but if y'all want to follow my letterbox,
it's just Eli Rye McGee.
Same as my Twitter handle, Eli Rye McGee.
And, yeah, I mean, the only thing I will preface
is that I first, like, the way I rate things
are more for me personally, so I can keep track of movies that stood out to me and that I first, like the way I rate things are more for me personally so I can keep
track of movies that stood out to me and that I
would like go back and watch or that I
really enjoy. I guess that's what everyone's personal
rating is so
two is not a horrible score.
Neither is three.
I was, I'm actually curious about
this. Okay.
I saw how you were rating movies and I had some
discussion with Jackson in the car about
your rating system uh because i i think most people would be like two stars is a really bad
score can you can you explain your rating system so my rating system is like anything like just
kind of like mediocre or bad i will give so you're very sparing with fives though i will give yes i
will give like a one or a half star like half star is
essentially like i don't i would not recommend this at all and one star is like can you give
zero stars no otherwise so half half is half is the worst but uh and then two stars like
there are more positives than negatives you know in this movie but for me i didn't gel with it and
so like i wasn't like excited or i wasn't like totally entranced by the experience.
So three stars is pretty good then.
Then, yeah, three is like a lot of like three or movies that I want.
Once you hit three, that's like a definite recommendation.
I would recommend someone watch that because I enjoyed it or I thought it was good technically.
And that meant more to me than like, I don't know.
It's just and then four are like great movies to me,
like really great movies that stood out.
And then fives are just kind of like my personal bag of,
I could watch this over and over and over again.
And I think they're, and I also think they're amazing.
And they're not in any way a guilty pleasure.
I agreed with almost all your fives, I think.
I remember I was out at dinner
and I was looking through your letterbox and I was like.
And a part of my five system thing is is like four four and four and a halves can turn to fives upon rewatches but it's not a few movies right off the gate will i give a five
because i i i want to rewatch it because with parasite at first it was probably like like i
loved it i loved it 100 but then upon rewatch probably like I loved it. I loved it 100% but then upon
rewatch it made me love it more and solidify
like everything.
My opinions about it.
Zero Dark Thirty. I never saw
it. Oh you didn't see Zero Dark Thirty? No.
I guess someone's on American.
Did you see American Sniper? I did.
Did you review it? Uh oh. Did I rate it?
Uh oh. Hold on let's see. Ryan you know
anything below a four is gonna
it is not patriotic people are gonna hate my review like my rating for it oh i gave it two
stars two stars yeah i thought it was like so on par with norbit no norbit nor so you're saying a
story about one of the greatest american heroes of our time is just is just the same as eddie
murphy's norbit well they fucking bullshit a lot of,
a lot of shit in the movie too.
And the movie,
and the movie is kind of like your typical,
just kind of like war movie,
not typical war.
Clint Eastwood,
right?
Yeah.
It's Clint Eastwood.
Clint Eastwood does good work.
He pulled his support for Donald Trump.
And I gave it to my blue.
I gave Norbit one star.
Thank you very much.
Oh,
I thought you gave it to no way.
So it's just, it's a little bit better than Norbit.
Yeah.
No, it's definitely better than Norbit, but Norbit is also like.
Norbit's a good fuck.
Did you, okay, Mike.
I'm a huge fan of Norbit.
Otherwise, sorry, I'm a huge fan of Eddie Murphy.
Otherwise, maybe Norbit would have been a half star. But I still think Eddie Murphy is an entertaining man.
Eddie Murphy is fantastic.
But let me let me actually let me show you something real quick.
I might have told you this before.
OK, Brian Wilson.
Brian Wilson, who is the the the lead singer of the Beach Boys.
OK.
Has stated on record many times that his favorite movie is
norbit huh interesting so like when you watch norbit just be like yeah the the beach boys like
the singer of the beach boys i don't like when i a part of me also feels a bit sad that i didn't
keep the letterbox private and just like to myself I get that
because the moment
I think people really enjoy it though
the moment I like made it public
there were like some messages where it's just like
like I won't get anyone
on why they rated a movie
a certain rating because that's their
personal opinion. It's an opinion you can't get mad
about it. But like people started getting upset
with me about. Well, when we have Fantano
on the podcast, you can talk to him about that because
he's kind of the king of because people
would always attack him and shake for rating
he gave. And I disagree with a lot of Anthony
Fantano's reviews. Yeah. I mean, there's some
like people like we're like, I'll see the review
and I'm just like, I disagree with
it. But like, I can't I can't change
the way they saw it about it. Yeah, it's
it's it's just like their view
let me read this real quick of Norbit
his review of Norbit interviewer
says have you seen any good movies lately
and uh Brian Wilson
says well I've only
seen one in the last couple of years
it's called Norbit by Eddie Murphy
how did you like it
fantastic movie very funny
so what's your favorite movie?
Norbit.
Beach Boys.
His favorite movie is Norbit.
I fucking love it.
Terry Crews is in Norbit, isn't he?
Yeah, he plays the big, the older brother.
Yeah.
And I remember.
Maybe.
I hope we're not mixing.
No, no, no.
Because he's like the construction worker, right?
Michael, what's his name?
I'm pretty sure it's Terry Crews.
I think it's Terry Crews.
I don't remember a lot about that movie, but I do remember there's a part where
he asks for
the breasts of the chicken
and they put it on his plate and it just looks like tits.
And I remember that part was always made me like,
it's not a bad movie. It's not a horrible.
I need to rewatch. I mean, it's a bad movie.
It's a bad movie, yes, but it's kind of like a guilty pleasure. Norbit's a very lovable character. He's got a horrible i need to re-watch i mean it's a bad movie it's a bad movie yes but it's it's kind of like a guilty pleasure norbit's a very lovable character he's got a lot of heart
to him i just like it it just movies like that it's like a forest early 2000s and like norbit
is not going to be made today or it couldn't be financed today and released like you know it couldn't be a wide release you know and like for eddie murphy
being behind it was just interesting especially with meet dave but he's apparently he's coming
back dude i remember norbit i remember the water slide scene they so what they did was uh because
eddie murphy plays the yes, right? Uh-huh.
But they used an actually large woman to – and they put his face over it.
9% on Rotten Tomatoes.
But Google users said 91% liked this movie. While Rotten Tomatoes says 9%.
Metacritic, 27.
IMDb, 4 out of 10.
I mean, there are movies that, like, I movies that I believe one can like that are bad.
You know?
I mean, yeah, you can like any movie you want.
It's always your...
Cuba Gooding Jr.'s in Norbit?
What?
I forgot.
Cat Williams?
That's a pretty big...
Is the Nutty Professor just like does eddie murphy just
like dressing up as fat people you know oh my god i can't but dude i'll go back and i'll like
tweak things just because it's like there's so much to keep track of i was like how did i not
how have i not had kangaroo jack on my liked movies list it's not I just liked it
because in my head I was like
I have to like I was thinking of like oh yeah
have you written a review for it or just rated it
no that's deserving a review
maybe if I rewatch it
I think I'm just going to review
I'm not going to go back and review all of this shit
what'd you give it
I mean you're not going to like what I gave it
I think so hold on you give it a two?
I think so.
Hold on.
It's definitely a two movie for me.
I can agree with a two on that one.
Okay.
Yeah, I gave it two.
I don't believe it's worthy.
Like, if we're talking about cinema, I don't believe it's worthy of anything higher than that. My reviews are kind of like a mix of what i think of it as a film and what i felt while watching it like because i can think something like you know you you can look at
something and objectively say that is well made but then it just didn't click with you yeah and
i feel like it's like classical music for example i'm not a big fan of classical music i've never
liked it but like it's it's beautiful objectively it's it's i think big to like the
how intricate it is and and the laws of music that go into it and uh how complicated it is
like objectively it's you can say that it's very good music it's good yeah i don't like it though
i don't find so like if you were to rate like a classical album you would kind of like if you
thought like they were talented and they did everything good, the productions there, you wouldn't still give it just like a one star because you because you don't like classical music.
I feel like if you were to rate a classical album, you'd still like have to be like, OK, I'd give it like a two or three, which is interesting, which makes me almost wish there was like a review system where you could preview both, right?
Yeah.
Like how you felt about it, but then how you see it really is.
Yeah.
You know?
But I think it's best to kind of mix the two.
Yeah.
Because then it's a more personal kind of explanation of things.
Because sometimes, you know, you don't like a movie and then you go and rewatch it and you'll be like, OK, that's why I didn't like it.
Because you're because when you're seeing a movie for the first time, you're just kind of taking in all the all this new information.
Same with like Parasite. I remember the first time I watched it was crazy.
But then once you know it, you can come back.
Yeah, you can come back and be like, oh, that's interesting. I like that.
I really I wish there was like a letterbox for music. I'd love to do that there's um there's i've been listening to i've listened to him forever but
i've been listening to a lot of home shake recently because he um i've just been listening like through
his his album discography yeah because i've i've i've listened for i wonder why there isn't that
for music yeah and then if you could link your spotify you could instantly play oh that'd be
sick looks like we might have to make that. Don't steal our ideas,
computer science majors.
But, uh, but thank,
uh, yeah.
Yeah.
I just, this is the end of,
I want this to be the end
of the Letterboxd conversation.
I prefer to keep going.
I'm sorry.
Hey, but I, I,
I review things like
pretty much every week
multiple times usually.
So Ryan,
Ryan's been seeing hell.
I enjoy it.
It's, it's like,
I think it's my favorite. I did review house. We it's my favorite i did review how we haven't talked about house
oh we didn't house who we uh do you know what i gave house what'd you give house what do you
think i gave house three i gave it four stars four you gave it a four good i loved it i
fucking okay so matt oh no i spilled you spilled your fucking drink on the carpet of all places.
I know.
So Matt invited me to go see House because I've never seen it.
On its original 35 millimeter.
And I, sorry, I'm cleaning while I'm talking.
I never have seen it.
And I don't know.
I don't know what it is about my taste, but I usually don't like movies that are kind of a trashy campy,
I guess.
Like you think of like evil dead or brain dead.
Like I think they're somewhat fun,
but like,
I don't personally like them.
Yeah.
This one,
I think that had this extra element and the editing.
Wild.
Is,
is not only wild,
but just the editing of how they edited the scenes together is,
is I don't want to say genius
but it is it is i would say it's so ahead of its time comedically so like where it's like you could
be watching this and like i would think that this is a youtube is like some dude who made a comedic
youtube video using an old horror movie but it's it is its own movie uh for those who don't know
it's a it's a japanese horror movie from the 70s it's not even really a horror movie it's it is its own movie uh for those who don't know it's a it's a japanese horror movie
from the 70s it's not even really a horror movie it's well it is but it's it's a horror comedy it's
a horror comedy yeah and it's it's the acting and the but not like scary movie hori hori comedy
horror comedy well there's breast in it i guess you could say it's a hori it's fantastic though
it's on the criterion collection i recommend everyone go watch it it is it is it's weird it is i i say it's it's so fucking good i'm glad because i enjoyed it
uh the tucker bros showed it to me uh back in like 2017 you were sitting next to me i was laughing a
good bit yeah you were and and i was very other people were laughing in the theater too much they
were laughing a little bit too much i agreed but uh i was very excited for you to see because i
didn't know what you'd think and and at the end you turn me and
you're like i fucking love that dude i'm glad you liked it man it was so good it was so i'm glad
that was my first experience with it too i want to watch it i want to watch it again like just
because it's it's one of those things where like if if if you're gonna judge everything like it's
like citizen kane of course it's not you're not gonna think
the story's there
compared to
but like
for me
like as a movie
and what it showed
like it
it had a vision
and I
and from what I could see
it executed that vision perfectly
can I be honest
what
I never really cared for Citizen Kane
I don't like Citizen Kane
I think
I don't
I think I gave it
a very bad review
it's just one of those movies
where it's like
oh this is the movie and then I watch it and I'm like yeah It's just one of those movies where it's like, oh, this is the movie.
And then I watch it and I'm like, yeah, maybe for like the 30s or whenever it came out.
I'm like that even with, let me.
Rosebud.
Hold on, I'm going to look.
Like it's not a bad movie, but.
No, I mean, it's important.
I'm not interested in it.
I don't have any interest.
I watched it in high school and I was just like, okay.
I gave it two and a half stars. Okay. I don't know. interest. I watched it in high school and I was just like, okay. I gave it two and a half stars.
Okay.
But yet Norbit.
It's a great movie.
Citizen Kane is great for what it is.
And it's just like one of those.
Maybe it's the genre I'm not particularly keen to.
There's a lot of movies I feel bad for not liking.
And I'll look up the general reviews and I'll be like,
fuck,
maybe I'm just,
it could just because I'm,
I'm not getting it.
I'm stupid.
I could,
I,
and I don't want to piss off any film bros.
Cause I'm sure that by me saying Citizen Kane is boring,
that,
that is boring.
I raised the blood pressure of quite a few individuals out there.
That's just my opinion of it.
And you know,
I'm proud.
I could be fine movie.
I just,
I,
I don't think I'll ever watch it again unless I'm older. I'll be like, was it, was it boring? And then I'll watch it and you know i'm probably it's a fine movie i just i i don't think i'll ever watch
it again unless i'm older i'll be like was it was it boring and then i'll watch it and be like yes
i started watching a song of the south interesting watch matt um i've never i've never seen it all
the way through well it's it's locked up in disney's vault and and one night uh i was at
home we were drinking we're like talking about how ridiculous that movie is. And we're like, all right, let's see what this movie like really is about.
So we put it on, watched about 45 minutes and turned it off.
It's boring.
It's really boring.
It's like an actually just slow, boring movie with a lot of racism.
I find a lot of racism. I find a lot of, a lot of racism. Older movies, just when they're
kind of getting
their feet off the ground
and stuff
in terms of how
they want cinema to be.
I don't,
I don't think I'm a fan
of older movies too much.
I'll watch them.
Like,
there are a lot of
older movies that I love,
but that,
I think,
harkens more
to the
kind of
Buster Keaton realm
of older movies.
Like,
I like,
I like,
Keaton Jones?
No. Buster, you know who Buster Keaton is. Yeah movies. Like I like, I like, Keaton Jones? No.
Buster,
you know who Buster Keaton is.
Yeah.
You know who Keaton Jones is?
No.
Sorry.
Remember the kid
that got bullied and,
No.
Is it the kid online
who,
who got a bunch of celebrities?
Yeah.
Keaton Jones.
Is that Keaton Jones?
Yeah,
remember?
He was like crying.
Is that Keaton Jones?
And everyone was making fun of him
the way he looked.
Is that Keaton Jones?
That's Keaton Jones, bro. Is it? Look up Keaton keaton jones man okay i'm looking up keaton jones on what
that little what that little dude's up to these days oh that keaton i was thinking of the more
recent guy oh that turned out he was like an adult and you're like and he's like flexing with like
money and stuff and all those pictures i i think i i don't think it's a scam. I don't know. Keaton. I don't want to say anything.
Well, like Skeeton Jones.
But what was I saying?
Sorry, I didn't mean to derail you with with Keaton Jones talk.
Fuck.
You were talking about fucking hell, dude.
You were talking about Buster Keaton era movies.
Oh, like how in terms of like old movies movies like those movies are what impresses me because
not only are they fun to watch they're they're entertaining they they have a plot you can follow
but like technically it's impressive of like what he did it's like that watching that is kind of
like watching old school jackass and i know that that's weird like oh compare the jackass stunts
to buster but buster keaton was
doing all this crazy shit for real like he could have died he's got seriously injured doing these
stunts three stooges actually i mean not comparable but three stooges uh is also entertained got
really hurt on a lot of occasions like like broken ribs but still kept shooting like the same shot
like i watched a compilation of like times they actually got hurt um and there's like one where he falls off a fucking ladder and like breaks his ribs but
like keeps the keeps going and i'm like damn um song of the south i think it's funny how you know
disney locked it away for obvious reasons yet it's one of their most popular rides is based on
it and is still because i remember as a kid going on uh splash mountain
and uh being like i don't know these characters like who are these characters and then you see
them in song of the south and then uh also zippity like right when you walk into disney
it's they play zippity-doo-dah in the magic kingdom and it's like that's also from song
of the south so it's like they locked it it away, but it was prominent at the parks.
Interesting.
They should remake Song of the South.
No.
Reparations version.
You know?
Sorry.
Do we even talk about the Oscars yet?
Is this the first podcast we've recorded since my ass surgery?
Yes, it is.
Oh. We haven't recorded a podcast in a while because we backlogged them because I was having surgery.
Okay.
My ass is better now.
I'm all good.
Real quick.
Hoorah for Parasite.
Yes.
Thank God.
Fucking well earned.
We were all ecstatic when that happened.
We jumped up.
We were screaming.
Well, that's Super Mega's reaction to Bong Joon-ho.
What?
I always called him Bong Joon-ho. What? I always called him Bong Joon-ho.
Bong-hole?
From South Korea?
What the hell was that?
Give me more Gone with the Wind.
Gone with the Wind.
The first half of American History X.
Great movies.
I don't even think Trump saw Parasite.
I don't even think he saw most of the movies
that came out this year.
I don't think he watches movies.
I highly doubt Trump watches movies.
Unless they somewhat have to do with him, probably.
What's with this South Korean director coming in and making movies, huh?
What the hell is that?
Apparently, he had a movie on Netflix.
So, he started becoming popular in the Western eye,
both due to how fucking epic his movies are and in tone
and how different and weird they are.
And also through help of other directors acclaimed that are American.
That's weird.
My favorite part was just like, how about Gone with the Wind?
And everyone's like, what?
You know, like most of those people
probably have seen Gone with the Wind
once in their elementary school
class. That's when I watched it. It was when I was a little
kid. It's like three hours, isn't it?
Yeah, the only time I watched Sound of Music
was in the music class. And I never,
I just don't take a liking to like Mary Poppins
Sound of Music type of shit. No, I'm like Chitty Chitty Bang
Bang. I'm not really into that shit.
It's not my thing.
It's whimsical.
Like, yes, but it's not, it doesn't,
it doesn't win me away.
But like, here's the thing.
I do enjoy Wizard of Oz.
I like watching Wizard of Oz.
Wizard of Oz is very, is a lot more of a story,
I think, than like Mary Poppins.
It's in a mystical land and there's a talking lion
and a tin man.
I was scared of that movie for a while.
I was like, the wizard.
Is the lion scary?
The Tin Man looks scary.
Tin Man is freaky.
Then when you like the rumors of the munchkin who hung himself.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
That's classic.
Is the Tin Man like gay?
Is that like confirmed?
I don't know.
Because for some reason, I just have this thing in my head.
Like, it's always been like the Tin Man's gay.
I always thought the scarecrow would be more gay than the Tin Man.
Oh, you know why I think that? Because there was a family guy gag about the tin man's gay i always thought the scarecrow would be more gay than the tin oh you know why i think that because there was a family guy gag about it about the tin
man being gay and i guess that just like worked its way deep into my brain the actor was gay and
family guy was just making fun of the gay actor i don't know uh i could see family guy well like
well it's i hope i hope his estate doesn't sue me i am not gay well he's dead the guy who played
the tin man he's he's dead i searched tin Man gay and a bunch of Korean videos came up.
I'm going to look up Scarecrow gay.
Oh, I'll look up Family Guy Tin Man.
Because that should definitely get this up, get the results I'm looking for.
I just got this.
Monsters made me gay.
Scarecrow gangbang Hank Wilder.
Dude, yo, we need to read that if that's a book.
Sorry, I'm going through a compilation of Family Guy Wizard of Oz bits.
I'm just trying to, real quick.
I didn't imagine this.
What?
The gay Tin Man thing.
I can't find the clip online.
Was it not like robot chicken
no it was definitely family guy
uh
I'm serious
hold on Jackson
we watched a lot of family
cause like it ends with like
the tin man in bed with another man and he's like
like something he says some line about
being like well oiled or something hold on a second
this is important jackson
damn dude hour 17
very important question. Hold on.
I'm getting Jackson here to answer this.
Jackson.
Yeah.
You've watched a lot of Family Guy as well.
And I remember a bit, a specific bit that I can't find any evidence on online.
And I want you to know if you remember this too.
It's a bit about the tin man being gay.
And he's like in bed with a man.
And he makes a comment about like being well-oiled or something that sounds so familiar like I didn't imagine that people in the comments please people
always make jokes about the Tin Man was gay okay it wasn't an original bit wait wait so I mean I
just brought up you looked up Tin Man gay but you couldn't find anything I thought he was
something deep-rooted in my head was like oh the Tin Man the Mandela effect is this the Mandela
effect joke on the rest of development too
and like a few other things let me see
was the Tin Man gay
was the Tin Man gay in Family Guy
yeah right here
Family Guy Tin Man
no no see there's several Tin Man bits
and I watched a compilation of them but none of them
were the gay one
let me Google it. I can see how much Seth MacFarlane must love.
No, wait a minute. I can't call the police.
I have to get rid of...
Unlike consoles,
he doesn't take up any space.
Oh, this?
There's no bed, but he just...
No, no, there's the...
Well, that is a gay Tin Man joke.
That's the one I remember.
There is one where he's in bed
with like a guy.
Man, Ryan,
I was just gonna imagine...
I'm positive.
...it's how you evolve.
Like when a Tin Man
found out he was gay.
I mean, that's the...
That's not the bit.
But...
This is the one I remember.
This is the classic Family Guy gay tin man bit from nine years ago.
Bye.
and over again. You sang that whole song about it. Bye. Angie has made it easier than ever to connect with skilled professionals to get all your jobs projects done well. I absolutely love this
because you know if you own a home it can be really hard to maintain. It's hard to find people
that can help you for a big project or a small. Well whether it's an everyday maintenance and
