Starting point is 00:01:31 Gosh darn. Another episode of the Super Megacast. That's right. We just came through our portal from the animated world into real-life Los Angeles. We're here to do another great episode for you turkeys. It's going to be one for the books. I'll tell you that right now. Not like every episode isn't one for the books.
Starting point is 00:01:51 But this episode in particular. This is a top shelf book. It's like in Harry Potter in the restricted section. Exactly. It's the book that screams at you. Yeah, if you were to take this off the shelf and open it, it's going to fucking scream in your face. But instead of screaming, it's going to be wild laughter just just absolutely crazy wild laughter so yeah you guys better get geared up for some good laughs you better get ready this is the try not to laugh
Starting point is 00:02:15 super mega cast edition i don't know if you guys can handle this one guys how far can you get in this episode without cracking even a smirk yeah okay know it's going to be hard for me and pretty hard for Ryan, but I'll see how you guys can do. My glasses are dirty as hell. I'm sitting here. Can you notice that? Can you see it? Do you keep a microfiber cloth around you to keep your glasses clean? Do you have a glasses case?
Starting point is 00:02:37 I don't have a glasses case. They're just usually on my face or on my bedside table. Yeah, somewhere. You know, a glasses case, I heard, works wonders. It keeps your glasses first protected from anything. There's a shell that comes around. You know, you open it, put the glass inside,
Starting point is 00:02:57 and within that, you can also store a microfiber cloth, especially if you're someone that happens to wear glasses more than they don't. I don't know. It's just this. It's like a, I'm sure you could find it somewhere. I don't know. It's just this, it's like a, I'm sure you could find it somewhere. I don't buy into that bullshit, you know. I'd rather just do
Starting point is 00:03:12 a little spit shine on them. Of course, of course. How does it usually go with the spit? Is spit a good cleaner for glasses? No, it's awful. It makes them cloudy and smudged. I'm sure if I gave it a good look, alright. Okay, you know what? I've been wondering why even after I clean my glasses,
Starting point is 00:03:28 there's still a blurry spot. I'm looking now, there's a scratch on my damn lenses. Well, seems like you need new glasses, sport. Or I might just have to get a little, ooh, that is crystal clear. Yeah? I might have to get a little LASIK, you know? I was thinking of getting myself some glasses soon,
Starting point is 00:03:41 like nighttime reading type of glasses. Oh yeah? Cause, uh, like, you know, while my vision is near perfect, get myself some glasses soon like nighttime reading type of glasses oh yeah because uh like you know while my vision is is near perfect uh i think the i remember the conversation i had with the uh what optometrist what who what is it op op optic optic optic person the optic doctor optician oh dude i don't op ophthalmologist no i don't know the people who look at your eyes at target or those places uh they were like wow you don't need glasses it would help slightly at like night time when you're driving to reduce like
Starting point is 00:04:22 the shine from certain lights and then uh just nighttime like reading like small fonts and stuff and you know since i'm a bit of a uh a board game fanatic recently and there's they're a little tiny you know reading the rule books and all this stuff i think it would be nice to have a little pair of glasses to not strain my eyes so much getting a little blurry for you uh i noticed that a difference like if the text is like super tiny like it's it's just kind of like a little fuzzy like things fuzzier up close than farther away no i'm i'm nearsighted so up close is fine but after you start reaching about like maybe 10 feet starts getting blurry it changes mine is like yards down but like if it's really small text, it really starts to come into play.
Starting point is 00:05:07 At night when my eyes are all dry, I could just start putting some water in my eyes. Put some lotion in them. Exactly. What you do is you take a little bit of Gold Bond lotion, kind of rub it in your eyes a little bit, moisturize them. I heard cocoa butter is great for your skin. Why not just put it directly on your eyes? Because your eyes need moisture. It's moisturizing lotion. It's specifically to moisturize. Another good thing you can do,
Starting point is 00:05:30 this is more of like a at-home remedy if you don't want to spend all the money on expensive lotions because they're expensive. Just take like a stick of butter. Okay. And you wrap the, you take the paper wrap off and just take the stick and just kind of hold your eye open. Just kind of, you know, smudge it across a few times and it moisturizes and the oil the oils in it are good for your eyes too from butter mm-hmm i have vitamins and minerals i don't believe it but i'll have to try it at some point because uh i can't i can't i can't go through life saying for example you can't go through life saying god doesn't exist jesus doesn't exist without the proper proof, right? Exactly. So since I can try this one out for myself, I'll tell you how it goes.
Starting point is 00:06:18 But right now, I'm a little suspicious that it's going to hurt, burn a little, and affect my vision permanently. It doesn't. I've been doing it. Another thing is, you know, they say dogs have healing properties in their saliva. That's why they lick wounds. You know, you have a dog at home. You could just kind of go up to them, hold your eye open. I guarantee in just a few seconds they'll lick your eyeball for you. And their tongues are cleaner than that of a toilet bowl's.
Starting point is 00:06:38 Than a toilet bowl's tongue? Than just a toilet bowl in general. Yeah, you know, it's I don't... Toilet bowls don't have tongues, Matt. Well, maybe not yours. I know you're over there with your fancy bidet, but my toilet just... You have a bidet, too.
Starting point is 00:06:53 The person that we need to get on the bidet train still is Justin. Jordan Peterson left a message on the last episode that we recorded, at least. And we've talked about it on the sonic 06 playthrough i don't i don't even know yet but we do talk about it spoiler alert um and i'm hoping to one day to to show up to justin's place and he has a beautiful bidet installed it doesn't have to have a seat warmer but something where i go over and you know how chili fucks you up. Because Justin, I will say, Justin, fantastic editor, great lover, but an even better chili cook.
Starting point is 00:07:32 His chili, I would say, like in terms of all food ever created, like starting from like Caveman, it's probably in the top five. Just because it's so simple and chunky and meat filled um some good slop i've only had it once but it was delicious it's great um he doesn't he doesn't trust people with the specific ingredients uh too well he's he's he keeps that close to the chest so even letting you taste it to him is a big step in the right direction which he's never let me taste it again so i think for you it to him is a big step in the right direction which he's never let me taste it again so i think for you that's big that's big that's a step in the door at least yeah um but uh so justin's justin's chili in general i think that's what he would need
Starting point is 00:08:17 to focus on honestly he's he's first he's getting a lot of publicity with the Chris Hemsworth stuff. Right. And the key to the city. All of this stuff is, sure, creating a bit of an ego. I just hope that doesn't affect the love that he puts into his chili. Like he might just start phoning it in? Yeah. Yeah. He's like, I'm Justin.
Starting point is 00:08:39 It's my chili. I mean, he might phone it in with the editing. That's what I'm worried about. Maybe what we need to do is next time we have the chili, just don't compliment. Just have a couple bites and go, hmm. Okay. Be like, this is, and, you know. It's a good batch.
Starting point is 00:08:53 Of course he'll go, how is it? You know, he needs the validation. It's a fine batch. Fine. Fine is the key word we need to use, I believe. It's good. But in general, I talked about the bowls of chili because long story short chili sometimes can make a little bit of a mess in in your undergarments if you're not too careful
Starting point is 00:09:12 uh and if justin was the chili house how great would it be if he had something to kind of help out with the problem that chili causes dude which is muddy butt. You can't be making chili every week and then not have a bidet. Right. It's like having a carriage without a horse, you know? Okay, so someone of like mind also agrees. I think it's just common sense. I don't know what it is. I want him to be excited about a bidet.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Because when I got a bidet and I tried it out for the first time, I was like, I got really excited. It's an exciting thing. I was like, I have a clean ass. Like, I know my asshole's clean. It's this triumphant moment in anyone's life who owns a bidet that they finally have a clean ass. Because you think your ass is clean until you use a bidet.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Everyone at the office has a clean asshole. Except, I mean, Justin, when he walks by, I can smell it. Yeah. You know, it's kind of like it radiates this stenchch you can smell his lunch and probably dinner from the day before as well yeah and and i don't know why he's so against it you know he has the money to get one he has the resources to set it up himself i it's not even a matter of money for me it's more of it's like he should want a clean asshole yeah does he enjoy having a dirty asshole?
Starting point is 00:10:25 And you don't have to use as much, you don't have to go like, I remember before a bidet, how much toilet paper I'd go through. Sometimes you have a messy bottom. Oh, for me, it's now after the bidet, maybe two, three wipes max. And that's mainly just to get the water off. Yeah, I was about to say, if you still need three wipes after using the bidet. No, no, no, no, no. It's really just to get all the water off.
Starting point is 00:10:47 You have to damp the water off of your bum bum. Yeah, and there's a lot of water up there afterwards. And there's some wet yellow or brown still there that you need to wipe off a little bit. Just a little bit, though. But then when you go for that second wipe and it's all clean, just a little bit of dabs of water, you go, perfect. See, what I do is the first wipe after the bidet is mainly to get the water off.
Starting point is 00:11:06 The second wipe is just to really eliminate any remaining yellow or brown. And then the third wipe is just for safety. It's just because if there was any yellow or brown, that's an indicator that you need to do at least one more wipe just to make sure. And then that last third wipe, usually it's perfectly white.
Starting point is 00:11:22 And I talked about this before. I know it's a bit of an advanced move here. Jim does it, and I think Luke started to do it. Jim and I separately came to this conclusion that this is a great idea. Oh, did you? I thought you told him. This is just like, I remember I told Jim one day, and he was like, yeah, I do the same thing. There's a lot of camaraderie and hugs in that moment.
Starting point is 00:11:44 I remember. one day and he was like yeah i do the same thing there's a lot of camaraderie and hugs in that moment i was i remember um but just hold on one second sorry my i'm a little uncomfortable uncomfortable in my chair it's all right man your back is all good if i change position man do what you got to do is this good i can see more of your leg i like it maybe I can get like a little bit of a stretch in to to help out oh yeah so like well I'm talking about this but sorry sorry sorry to trail off it's all good brother um so long story short I think the thing that we just sorry sorry I was gonna I was gonna tell about the advanced little move we didn't I didn't even discuss what it was or go in the detail it's when you store a lot of the water that you that you retrieve from the bidet into your asshole hold it in there to kind of do
Starting point is 00:12:32 shit out then you blow all this water out along with maybe any little bits that are still stuck inside of you so the thing is our assholes our assholes aren't just clean the inside of our ass is clean. Yes. You know? You can stick a tongue in there. Yeah, and it would be very clean. Yeah. You can trust my asshole.
Starting point is 00:12:50 And I can trust yours. Exactly. Where Justin, you know, if you, like, licked his asshole, it's dirty. But if you were to stick a tongue in, even worse. Yeah. You know? It's going to be like a fondue fountain, dipping a banana under a fondue fountain. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:13:02 So, you know, really, the rest of us here have magnificent assholes. There's one thing that and I want him to get on this too, Ryan, because you know, the Burbank asshole inspector comes by. You know, we would get a low rating because... Specifically only because of Justin. Justin would bring the rest
Starting point is 00:13:20 down. Otherwise, we'd have a 100% perfect score here of clean assholes. When he lines us up against the wall, spreads our cheeks, and takes a peek, and a sniff, and a lick. You know, he does all three. He takes a look, goes, and gives it a little lick. We're gonna be brought down. You know, it's
Starting point is 00:13:35 kind of like, imagine a restaurant, right, where in the kitchen, all the employees are following very, you know, they wash their hands, they follow very strict health codes preparing the food. But if there's one employee that doesn't wash his hands and helps prepare the food, you know, what does that do? It sinks the whole ship. One loose board can make the whole river flood, you know, from the dam that the beavers build.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. So in terms of the, the, the method you use where, where you fill your asshole with water, I've been trying, I don't know how to do it. I don't, as I said, it's an, it's an advanced technique. You need to kind of. I might not be there yet. I try to relax my asshole. It requires a certain base of intelligence, which you don't have.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Right. So I think that's kind of getting in the way it requires a little more effort on your part i really try i sit there and i i strain my brain and i try to relax but like the water just just just hits the rim yeah sprays back down i mean i i don't i don't know what i'm doing wrong i would say doing some sudoku puzzles and some heavy reading could help boost your intelligence so you're so those neurons when you are doing that action of trying to douche with the water those neurons might connect if if if you try to as i said reading is a big one sudoku puzzle any sort of puzzles a jigsaw puzzle even might help stimulate the brain anything that can help stimulate the brain
Starting point is 00:15:05 and as I said get those neurons to connect where you finally have that aha moment that a lot of people have in Dark Souls games for example when they finally beat a boss
Starting point is 00:15:13 this is your Dark Souls boss I don't know man douching with a bidet the neurons I don't know there's much hope there you know yeah
Starting point is 00:15:23 I think my my my pie is pretty cooked up here already yeah i mean the crack doesn't help either of us no and i consume more of it than you do but it's because it's because i game more regularly that i have such a higher threshold of intelligence than you i wouldn't take that like if if If you did game a little more, which I will say, another thing that is helping you is your new attachment to RuneScape Online,
Starting point is 00:15:50 old school RuneScape Online, which you have been playing consistently on your phone and computer. I've been putting between three to six hours a day into old school RuneScape lately, every day. And so a large part of that, I guess you can go in, how much of your enjoyment of old school RuneScape lately, every day. So a large part of that, I guess you can go in, how much of your enjoyment
Starting point is 00:16:07 of old school RuneScape is nostalgic and then good game design mechanics and all of that? Like, it's a good game. Of course, RuneScape is a great game. But how much of that nostalgic factor do you think weighs into your enjoyment? For me, now,
Starting point is 00:16:24 very little, because... you're in it again well i've played it many times in the past right i played it in 2006 when i first started old school runescape and i played it for several years and then i've you know here and there i've made new accounts and picked it up but this is the first account where i've actually like dove into the game and started doing quests in different type like i've actually learned about the game this time you have like a member service thing what is what so what is that that wasn't ever like was that ever given it was it was always a thing okay where basically like i was never a member i was i always wanted it i just had my little account yeah so there's free to play
Starting point is 00:17:01 which is just like a chunk of the world but But the world's pretty big. You unlock the rest of that. You also unlock a lot of new quests. You unlock a lot of new skills. A lot of the ability to create different things and wield different weapons. Just doing a lot of game-expanding stuff. And it's like a monthly membership. It's pretty cheap. Would you say you're gearing to be more—
Starting point is 00:17:20 Are you like a class-specific, or are you kind of an all-around, all-edge? I've been leveling my magic lately. I'm a level 49 right now. Okay. Do you have a little wizard's hat? Not at the moment, no. But, you know, I've completed all free to play quests except for two. Oh. And, you know, what's really made this playthrough different is when I used to play RuneScape, I would just level up by just clicking, chopping trees, making fires, attacking things. See, now I'm learning there's different, making fires, attacking things. See now I'm
Starting point is 00:17:45 learning there's different perks, there's different quests that give you that stuff, there's different places to travel that give you more so I've really been diving beneath the surface that I never knew was there. So I'm really actually going pretty deep this time. I just got my prayer up to almost level 60. I know a large part of why people liked RuneScape why i liked runescape and what was so kind of um uh intoxicating about it was the online component was seeing that all of these pieces moving on the board are are are real players themselves you know negating the npcs is there still like a lot of I know there's a lot of people who still play RuneScape but does it
Starting point is 00:18:27 feel as filled and as I guess social as it did back in the day like when you played in 2006 or like I don't know the exact year when I played it was probably around the same time just when I called it Run Escape before I knew better it does it actually
Starting point is 00:18:44 has the fun cause you know there's like regular runescape still. It seems barren when you were playing it. Oh, it's because I was playing on members only worlds. Okay. And those, depending on which world, don't have a lot of people. If you go to like a free to play world or one of the main members worlds, there's a ton of people. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:01 But I like playing in the more quiet ones. there's a ton of people okay but i like playing the more quiet ones uh but um i would like to give actually to finish that uh old school runescape has a bigger player base than regular runescape still they have like over a million monthly players so yeah quite a big quite a big uh you know uh player base there's a lot of people on there and shout out to brand. I put on Twitter, his name was just Brandon. I put on Twitter, I said, I am in world 306. Try to find me. But I had not made my, I haven't made my username public. It's not Matt Watson or anything like that.
Starting point is 00:19:37 And this guy comes up to me, just guessed it, and was like, I know it's you. And then. Your username, I'm not going to give it away. But if you're looking for Matt in a specified world and then you do see that username and you're already aware, it's kind of like, that's got to be him. There's no way that's not him. Three people found it.
Starting point is 00:19:57 One guy gave me a smelly sock. Yeah. So thank you for that. But Brandon... Okay, before you get onto that, I just want to know, how did you get past the censorships to be able to have that name because usually I like people switch like the eye for a one sometimes no uh I know someone at Jagex okay we were mutuals on Twitter and he pulled a
Starting point is 00:20:19 couple strings for me that name is normally not allowed on any online service. Yeah. I mean. And granted, no one had taken it yet. Because no one can have it. So I guess lucky for you. But anyway, sorry, you were Brandon. Yeah, Brandon just gave me 10 million gold. Really? Just out of the kindness of his heart.
Starting point is 00:20:38 So I'd like to give a shout out to Brandon. Thank you. I think my biggest accomplishment in RuneScape was getting like gold trimmed armor at some point. I think my biggest accomplishment in RuneScape was getting like gold trimmed armor at some point. I got gold trimmed armor. And that was like my big like
Starting point is 00:20:49 it looks cool and I was just excited about that. I got full rune gold trimmed right now but I can't wear the plate body yet because I'm not completed
Starting point is 00:20:58 the dragon slayer quest. Okay. But what I do is I work my way up so I got full gold trim mithril, full gold trim adamant and then whenever I level up and I don't need it so I got full gold trim Mithril, full gold trim Adamant,
Starting point is 00:21:09 and then whenever I level up and I don't need it anymore, I give Luke my hand-me-downs. Because Luke has been playing a lot. He played like six hours yesterday. He's playing Catch Me Up. But he's pretty quick with it. My combat level is about 51 right now. He's at about 30. So what I'm doing is, you know, I'll give him my gold trimmed hand-me-downs. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:21 I also gave him a couple mil from Brandon's generous donation. I'm sure he really appreciates it. Lukeke he doesn't show that he appreciates it he just kind of takes it yeah and you know it's like i everyone expresses gratitude differently right you know love languages you know for some it's gift giving yeah and gift receiving and and i don't think that's that's his main one. His is more touch. Okay. As you've seen around the office. Which, speaking of, it's touch time. Luke needs his touchies.
Starting point is 00:21:53 You're right. So we will be right back after this ad break. We have to go touch Luke. He's our editor for those wondering. He's editing this episode. It's not a different Luke. It's the same Luke. It's the same Luke that's been editing our podcast content for a while now.
Starting point is 00:22:07 He works here at Super Mega. I want to make sure people are aware that this isn't some stranger that we're fondling or molesting. This is an employee who asks for it in more ways than one. But we will be right back. So thank you. Hold tight.

Starting point is 00:24:19 That was a lot of man handling and man work. Luke got a handful, I would say. And we also got our hands filled. I'm going to be a little sore from that one. So, we were talking about RuneScape. I was hoping you'd come back to it. I've been having so much fun on old school RuneScape. It really has been one of those little hobbies that I've gotten back into
Starting point is 00:24:43 that I'm like, it's just been such a blessing because when I. Did you just pass gas? No. OK, well, when I go home from work, usually I spend I get home from work and I'm probably awake for eight, nine more hours before I go to bed. And dude, I spend those hours just so bored, but like I don't want to do anything. That's the thing. I'm like tired and I'm just like, there's stuff I should be doing. I should be cleaning my house.
Starting point is 00:25:07 I should be, you know, feeding my pets. It's a hobby that you have. This is, it's hobby time. It is. This little nook of time
Starting point is 00:25:15 that you're describing doesn't need to be filled with being productive or feeling like you're enhancing society. Well, I feel like I have to. You can be enhancing Matthew.
Starting point is 00:25:24 You know, it's like I have this thing where it's like, I feel like if I'm not doing something productive, I'm wasting my time. It is something productive. It's going towards the betterment of your mental health. It is. And I'm building an account. And, you know, last night I was thinking to myself, I'm like, I mean, what's the end goal? I hit a bunch of high levels and then what?
Starting point is 00:25:42 But then I started thinking to myself, I said, well, that's thinking about the end of the journey. It's the journey along the way. It's the journey itself. You know? And it's fun comparing stats with Luke. Of course. I am smoking him right now. Yeah. If you put a little more you know, hours into it. Well, if he didn't come to board game nights,
Starting point is 00:26:00 you know, I'm sure he'd have a lot more time. Which, can you stop inviting him so much because he needs you didn't play any board games play runescape and see that's where me and Luke you played runescape the whole time I sat on the couch while you guys play board games that played runescape on my phone yep which is
Starting point is 00:26:15 you know great but well I didn't really want to play board games because that night was originally planned for the three of you and i felt like i was intruding i was there but i i didn't want to intrude so i i thought i would you know my presence is still there but you know i'd let you guys do the thing you set out to do i didn't want to yeah you know i will say the way you're describing runescape is exactly what like
Starting point is 00:26:39 board games and shit is what i've like it's that new kind of little addiction that new little thing where I've that's why I've specifically gone out of my way there'll be like an hour left or like let's say it's like
Starting point is 00:26:53 1030 I'm like I don't know what I'm gonna do I can easily like pull out Spirit Island and have like a solo run of that
Starting point is 00:27:00 for like an hour and a half or so listen I'll share you know as long as i'm playing on maybe i'll give weekly updates on some stats but i'll let you know where i'm standing right now all right let's hear it let's hear it everyone's wondering everyone's curious it's they the press
Starting point is 00:27:16 has been asking they my phone's been ringing off the hook they say matt what are your osrs skills in in stats and and before they preface this by going, Matt, I know that you don't want to release this info, and this isn't your way to humble brag or just to talk about RuneScape without any of us actually caring or showing interest in it, but it is your podcast, and we'd be more than happy for you to
Starting point is 00:27:41 share with us your stats, even though the average viewer probably doesn't care that's what the advertisers say um that's not what you say that's not what i'm saying right well i've only had this account for a little uh three weeks or so you had it you had it back in uh hawaii i made it in when we were in Hawaii. So that was the second week of February. Yes. So and now it's the end of February. I'm combat level 51. Now these are very modest
Starting point is 00:28:11 stats. There's nothing super impressive. But I'm, you know, attack 40, strength 36, and defense 41. Magic 49. Agility 23. Okay. Who's your fishing though? Fishing's 33. I need to work on it. Okay. Okay. Because you're fishing, though. Fishing's 33.
Starting point is 00:28:26 I need to work on it. Okay, okay, okay. Firemaking 34 and woodcutting 30. But prayer is 54. Okay? That's very useful. And herb lore 7. Thieving 5.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Crafting 14, you know. And slayer 27. So I got a bit of smithing's 37 mining's 20 only 20 so you know you guys could see where i've you know i've got to improve but you know people just heard numbers and go i don't play that game but most people should be playing runescape they should and for the for the the turkeys out there that did understand that, you know, I'm still working, but one of these days, there's a lot of super mega fans that are very high level old school RuneScape players. Well, there was a, when we were doing ours, we got helped out a bit, like big time. And it sounds like you're doing the same thing. Using fans for RuneScape gold. fans for RuneScape gold.
Starting point is 00:29:24 I never, he said, trade me real quick. I didn't even seek him out. He found me, and then he gave me, and I told him, I said, Brandon, I feel bad taking this. I don't want to take this. And he said, it's no problem. You felt bad taking it? I did. Did you? Yeah, I mean, I felt bad, because that's a lot of money. I took it. How much was it?
Starting point is 00:29:40 Ten million gold. It, like, begrudges me to take this 10 million gold the the weight i have to bear on my shoulders by accepting 10 million gold from you he was a pretty maxed out player so he has he probably doesn't like really i'm sure he continues like are there for example a lot of games after you do the main quest and stuff there's like this online feature where they will have like random daily or weekly quests. It's a lot of daily tasks and stuff.
Starting point is 00:30:07 A lot of people that max out continue playing every day. I think he's one of them. And, you know, it would just be a shame if more players did that same thing that Brandon did. Yeah. It would just really weigh on my conscience a lot. Yeah. If more people, like if you tweeted out the exact world where you were. Not where you were specifically.
Starting point is 00:30:24 Maybe you did no i just said i'm in this world yeah i'm in this world i'm uh you know try to find me it would it would probably take the first time was great but it would probably take away from your gaming experience if someone were to come again and give you another 10 million or 20 million it would be unfortunate yeah it would cut into the enjoyment of the game for me. Exactly. You know, because then instead of having to work for my money, it's just handed to me. Yeah, and then like— Who wants to live like that? But you're not going to say no, because you don't want to seem rude.
Starting point is 00:30:53 I don't want to seem rude. You have to take it with the knowledge that, oh, I have to take this burden of more gold to spend. I mean, the burden also falls on Luke, because I share some of that money with him, because he's my friend. How much gold is too much gold to spend. I mean, the burden also falls on Luke because I share some of that money with him because he's my friend. How much gold is too much gold to spend? Like, were you given, like, 10 million gold? Is that just like, well, you don't need to, like, work for gold anymore type of gold? Or is it like buy yourself a few big things? No, I still have over a million gold.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Well, but he gave you 10. He gave some to Luke. I mean, it seems like you're running through the gold. Well, see, I have been using it on expensive items to help me level faster. See, okay. And nice armor and stuff. Okay. It's been very helpful.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Been buying a lot of runes, you know? So you might... You're running. You're almost running out. I'm going to be out within a few days. So it would... Again, it would be very unfortunate if Matt tweeted out his location. If someone were to show
Starting point is 00:31:45 up even if it was the same person could you imagine shows up and finds you and gives you another 10 million so you can continue on your merry way yeah i mean on for retro brandon unfortunately you know he has too much love in his heart you know he was cursed with too much love to give and what are you gonna do not accept that love because that might crush his heart you know he was cursed with too much love to give and what are you gonna do not accept that love i because that might crush his soul you know that might crush his spirits and and you know exactly clearly you know this meant a lot to him so i'll pity him and take his gold but yeah well that's my runescape talk for this episode. Well, I'm glad you're having fun. Get excited for plenty more of it, guys.
Starting point is 00:32:26 All right. There's going to be a lot more RuneScape talk. Okay. Got any questions you want to ask people who might be knowledgeable? No, I just used the wiki.
Starting point is 00:32:36 Okay. The wiki's pretty fantastic. You know. What about you? Do you have any questions? For RuneScape? No, just in general. For the audience.
Starting point is 00:32:42 For the audience? Yeah. I'm sure in the comments they'd love to answer these questions. What was your rating For RuneScape? No, just in general, for the audience. For the audience? Yeah. I'm sure in the comments they'd love to answer these questions. What was your rating on a scale of 1 to 3 of your February audience? On a scale of 1 to 3. 1 being bad, 2 being okay, and 3 being great. For me? I'd give it a two.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Yeah, two. Yeah, same here. It was okay. It was an okay February. It wasn't a bad month. It wasn't a great month. No. You know, I've had better months,
Starting point is 00:33:15 but, you know, I'm happy with how February turned out. Cheers to March. Yeah, let's see what March has for us. I'm going to be celebrating my grandmother's 90th birthday very soon. Oma? Yep. Yeah? Oma's turning the big 9-0.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Damn, that's a pretty big... People in your family live a long time. That might be good for me. Well, not on my dad's side. On my mom's side more so. Well, I get, I guess, more of the genes from my mom's side, so I guess I should be looking at that, right? You do.
Starting point is 00:33:42 You really look like your mom. You got your mom's genes. And her beard. You've got your mother's eyes your mother's mother's eyes I know Harry Potter yep Harry Potter I yeah yeah yeah Snape be like look at me you've got your mother's eyes and even a professor I forget his name, but he, the one that gets, the one that turns himself into like an armchair to hide from Dumbledore in the beginning of the movie. Forgot his name, I know you're talking about the kind of like, the chubby. He collects students, he likes getting like a lot of high like prowess students. He has his little dinner parties.
Starting point is 00:34:24 Yes, him That turnt note What the fuck is his name? Who cares? I don't You look very much like your father, yes Except for the eyes, of course And then Harry interrupts him and says
Starting point is 00:34:38 My mother's eyes Yes, yes I like, he has dinner parties with students Very inappropriate by the way. And, uh... He was giving them some alcohol one time. He was. Which I was like, oh, they're old enough to drink, but then later in the movie...
Starting point is 00:34:53 In the movie they're like 16 or 15. Then I realized they're not old enough to drink yet. And I was like, what? They're... I guess... You have to be 18 to drink. Yeah, in England. But they're not 18. No.
Starting point is 00:35:04 And they're also not in England. They're in Hogwarts. Well, you know what? Actually, drinking laws might be very different in the Wizarding World. Yeah. You know? So, okay. So, like, canonically, is the Wizarding World just like Hogwarts?
Starting point is 00:35:18 Is this just in some mountains? Or is it in some kind of, like, other realm? I think it's in another realm. Because they do have to go through the portal in like they have to go either through the wall of that bar
Starting point is 00:35:31 to get into Diagon Alley from the like Muggle place I guess or they have to go in that nine and three quarters brick wall bullshit. I think it is in another realm. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:42 Because it seems like everywhere they go they have to they can't just walk to like everywhere they go they have to They can't just walk to Hogwarts. Yes. They have to they take a train a special train No But wait that's at a platform that they have to go through a portal to get to in the second or third They fly the car I the car and they meet up with the train They fly the car from from the muggle yeah, yeah. From the whatever the fuck that station's called.
Starting point is 00:36:05 So it has to be in this realm. Hmm. You know? Otherwise, how would they get there? Unless the car is a vessel of transportation to the next realm. I guess then they could be like, the government doesn't know about it because they just think it's nature's mountains. The government does know about it, if I'm not mistaken. Oh, that's right, because the ministers talk about it.
Starting point is 00:36:25 I talked to the Muggle Prime Minister about it. But people in general don't know about the wizarding world, just like, I guess, high-level government. I mean, it's crazy because like what- I also don't think the bitch who wrote these books thought that people would think into it so much. The bitch? The slimy, Neanderthalic cunt.
Starting point is 00:36:48 I don't know. I'm just mud-slinging, okay? You're slinging mud right now. I'm slinging a little mud, you know? You're casting dark magic. I'm being a dirty little man because she disagrees with me. So I then have to internal I have to internalize it and then collar mean things. And, you know,
Starting point is 00:37:09 at the end of the day, does it really matter though? Still billions and billions of dollars. And that's just talking about me. I'm sure JK has trillions. Did you see what Warner Brothers said? Mm-mm. They announced their production of the ninth Harry Potter movie.
Starting point is 00:37:28 No, they didn't. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Wait, really? That was the play, wasn't it? Yeah, they're turning it into a movie now. Is Daniel Radcliffe coming? Are all of them coming back? Because it has to deal.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Because in the Cursed Child play, Hermione's black. Are they just going to recast all the main characters? Are they going to ask them to come back? What? Listen to this. Okay. I just searched it. I saw this recently. Let me go on the news tab on Google. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Harry Potter's Luna Lovegood actor doubles down on J.K. Rowling defense. Wait, what? The Luna Lovegood actor, like, defends J.K. Rowling defense. Wait, what? The Luna Lovegood actor like, defends JK Rowling shit? I mean, that could just be some screen rant. That could be clickbait. She could be defending against JK Rowling.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Yeah, who knows. Her defense, you know. Listen to this. Huge news for Harry Potter fans as major new project gets underway as I and I can exclusively reveal bosses at Warner Brothers studio
Starting point is 00:38:30 film insiders told me how senior executives have started developing Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at Warner Brothers and this is through not an official announcement no they haven't done an official Warner Brothers announcement. So let me retract that and say it's not officially announced.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Gotta wait for Warner Brothers Con. Which is, for those who don't know, the Warner Brothers convention that they hold. Brothers Con, yeah. Yeah. Not to be confused with the funny Brothers Con. No. Which, this summer. Also a much better event.
Starting point is 00:39:03 But we're not in a place to announce that just yet no but we will soon um this is not it's not an official announcement of of funny brothers con uh yeah i just finished watching all the harry potter movies though i because i'd seen them my whole life but i've never seen them like one after the other yeah because i always saw them so spaced out but the universe was always just kind of like very strung together because I just had would have to remember from the one I saw last year what happened so it's my first time watching them all the way through and uh they're fun movies yeah I very much disagree with with JK Rowling sentiments of course the movies are very fun. Very nostalgic for me. But in general, in the people behind
Starting point is 00:39:46 more so the movie, J.K. Rowling had a lot to do in terms of the writing and signing off on stuff to do with the movies. But in terms of the vision and the tone that was set, I feel like that
Starting point is 00:39:56 more and strongly goes towards the set designers. Oh, yeah. Specifically. The actors. And Christopher Columbus and the actors. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:40:06 Christopher Columbus, while he has done some abhorrent things in his past I'm glad he took the several the couple hundred years to think about what he did the few hundred years I don't know he came out with Home Alone and then decided
Starting point is 00:40:22 to turn Harry Potter into a film and now he's a great director nobody really remembers him for all the other stuff Came out with Home Alone and then decided to turn Harry Potter into a film. And now he's a great director. Nobody really remembers him for all the other stuff like he did in his past. It's a fantastic comeback. Yeah. It's a great comeback story. The Chris Columbus director is the same guy.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Yeah. He just lived through, you know. But, you know, people change, right? You know, he had several hundred years to think about what he had done. Yes. So, you know, honestly, in my mind, his sins are washed clean with with the Harry Potter movies. You know, those movies do, I would say, for the most part, hold up other than like the cheesy green screen Voldemort in the fifth move, the the one before the half-blood prince,. Order of the Phoenix. Order of the Phoenix. Like at the end when they're in the ministry, and it's like, Harry, you gotta fight him! And then like Voldemort will flash on screen, he'll be like, and there'll be like a shitty fucking green screen.
Starting point is 00:41:16 Like that was a bit like, how did that get past editing, even in that time for such a big franchise? My favorite is in goblet of fire when when harry is in like gets teleported to the place where he confronts voldemort and they have to like to escape they have to like grab the chalice and they escape and voldemort like turns around and like drops to his knees he's like no and it's the cheesiest shit it's so funny i i i never maybe it's because i was older and, of course, less scared of Voldemort. Because as a kid, I was scared of Voldemort. But then growing up, I saw the last movie when I was a senior in high school.
Starting point is 00:41:55 And so maybe it's just that when it came to me being in high school and seeing, like, the last three movies, Voldemort didn't hit as hard. And then the fourth one, I even remember when I was still younger than thatort didn't hit as hard and then the fourth one i even remember when i was still younger than that it not hitting as hard and i can't tell if that's like i love ralph fiennes but i but i all i i just wonder if his performance it's just weird because every character in in in those movies feels like them mcgonall, Snape, they all have a lot of characterization to go along with them. Physically as long as well as their speech and stuff like that. Voldemort just seemed like boring, cringy, try-hard villain.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Like, I'm going to kill you. I can touch you now. It does feel very, like, basically written villain. Yes. And he doesn't have, like, any depth. No, he doesn't have any depth at all. He's just evil, right? I just see him differently
Starting point is 00:42:56 after watching Schindler's List. Yeah. I see Voldemort a little differently. Of course. He plays a same actor Ralph Fiennes plays plays a Nazi in that movie very evil Nazi yes well speaking of movies that do for the most part hold up like the Harry Potter there I saw a movie last night with Justin that does not hold up that I saw in theaters with my dad oh way back it's gonna be a good one then open season oh I loved that movie
Starting point is 00:43:21 dude I did not enjoy it my second time the second time through you can hear you can almost hear martin lawrence is just begrudging just yeah what's going like he doesn't know how to voice act every now and then he'll give like a little bit of a gruffness to boog the bear and uh ashton kutcher is his his character's annoying but i also feel like his voice acting was definitely over the top and obnoxious but maybe that's also the character yeah it was fantastic i loved it i screamed and laughed as a kid i was like they showed an animal poop on screen oh i watch you go to the bathroom i don't know i never really think about it all those poops i screamed with
Starting point is 00:44:03 laughter as well yeah i had it had it on DVD and my mom and I watched it and I remember there was one scene that was so funny that we were... I still remember. Did you rewind it? She was in the chair. I was on the couch in the living room and we were crying with laughter and we rewound it and we probably watched
Starting point is 00:44:20 it three or four times, the scene. Okay. I don't remember what the scene was. I just remember it was funny. If you were there, you could have maybe reminded us a little bit. I probably would still laugh and maybe laugh that hard. But, oh, also, I wanted to remind the audience
Starting point is 00:44:33 about some ad reads that they're going to have to listen to in three, two, one. Want visibly glowing skin in 14 days?

Starting point is 00:46:33 you shat your pants directly into that microphone you know it's an historic idol it's a historic what's a historic amulet. I don't know. What is a thing that's sacred?
Starting point is 00:46:51 A relic? A relic. Yeah, it's a sacred relic. It is. It's your sacred relic. I don't want my mouth. It's a sacred relic, Matt. Specifically yours.
Starting point is 00:47:00 It is ours. I mean, yes, it is mine. If anyone used this mic but me, I would be very furious. I did use it recently when I sat in your seat. But I will say, I don't know, you've had a lot of lips and tongue on that mic. Your anus has been in close proximity. It's my little guy. You've tooted into it many times.
Starting point is 00:47:19 He's been with me for the longest of times. I'd be curious to put it under a microscope and see if there's anything interesting there. I mean, with a microscope, probably, you'll probably just find germs. Because, I mean, we're speaking into it. I also don't think this is a knock to you. I also don't think you have the knowledge to tell what would be bad or not through a microscope.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Well, that's what you think, Ryan. I did microbiology. It was my major at USC. Oh, when did you graduate? 2018. The whole thing about me dropping out, that was a lie. I just thought you'd call me a nerd if I told you I had a degree in microbiology. Got it, got it.
Starting point is 00:48:03 If you study microbiology, you're a fucking nerd. So, just put that in your pipe and smoke it. Put that in your slide and look at it. Bitches. Yeah, see that right there? I'm supporting that here. Hey, put this under a microscope. What do you see? Probably a lot of
Starting point is 00:48:20 nothing. Whatever's on the screen, I guess. Yeah. You like that? Yeah. I did see a movie I liked, though. I saw The Triangle of Sadness. Nice. I enjoyed it. It had a very good soundtrack. Okay.
Starting point is 00:48:33 There is just a 20-minute scene that's nothing but vomiting and diarrhea. Very grotesque vomiting. Nice. Straight, in front of the camera vomiting. What is the synopsis of the movie uh or a summary of there's a male model okay there's a male model about a male model and his model girlfriend they're influencers they go on a uh really luxurious rich person cruise on a yacht with other billionaires oh is this the one with woody harrelson yeah i heard a lot of great things
Starting point is 00:49:04 about i heard it's super fun it is very fun um and then they're on a they're on a yacht with other billionaires. Oh, is this the one with Woody Harrelson? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I heard a lot of great things about it. I heard it's super fun. It is very fun. And then they're on a yacht with the ultra-rich. They go on an island, and then it's a movie about class. It is, because then the survivors on the island, all of a sudden, class doesn't matter. Right. The people with more knowledge about engineering
Starting point is 00:49:24 or just anything to do with just kind of, like, hard manual labor, they, of course, are more helpful on the island than the rich people who sit back and usually let those people do it themselves. It is one of those movies, though, where the ending is one of the endings that you have to decide what happens. I heard people didn't like that about it. Yeah. I'm not the biggest fan of of endings where you decide I like a movie that has its own interpretation built in where it's more like it's more like we can interpret anything from it but the movie has like a solid of yeah like in universe of what happened but I guess
Starting point is 00:49:58 then you can say the same thing I guess with wait Quentin Tarantino knows what's in the suitcase, right? Yeah. This was fully, like, you decide what happens at the end. Yeah. I really enjoyed it, though. It was really good. Mm-hmm. It was a dark comedy, so it's got some funny moments. How was Woody in it?
Starting point is 00:50:17 He was great. Was he smoking weed? Did you see his SNL monologue? He was an alcoholic in the movie. Oh. Well, did you see his SNL monologue? I didn't see his SNL monologue. What? How'd it go?
Starting point is 00:50:25 Hold up. Let me see if I can pull up a little bit for you. Get your reaction. Exhilarating? Yeah. It's a good monologue. I mean, I just brought it up because he's in the movie. Your vape is starting to get that flavor.
Starting point is 00:50:38 I know. That not-so-good flavor. Okay. So the movie goes like this. The biggest drug cartels in the world get together and buy up all the media and all the politicians and force all the people in the world to stay locked in their homes and people can only come out if they take the cartels' drugs
Starting point is 00:51:02 and keep taking them over and over. I threw the script away i mean who is gonna believe that crazy idea okay so he's making a an anti-vax statement i don't know i sound it sounds it sounds like he's uh he's He's conflating the National Health Organization with drug cartels who dismember and slit the throats of sons in front of their fathers. Which, a lot of drug companies, I mean, I'm not going to defend fucking drug companies. No, I mean, the pharmaceutical companies are no angels. It is a funny narrative, I guess, to kind of... It's more of a... It gets into conspiracy theory territory,
Starting point is 00:51:55 where I am not of the mind where I think the government or all these organizations are doing things for our benefit or doing things to necessarily help us, and that's why they're run. A lot of them are run to make money. Of course, most of them are, if not all. It's more so of the classic, they're putting something in our water. They're turning the frogs gay.
Starting point is 00:52:21 In Ohio, there's proof and evidence of a big explosion and a lot of people going to those water sources and stuff. But in this case, it seems like it's the people who hear that and go, oh, yeah, that's right, or the people who also believe that, like in our Truxim video that we just ran across randomly, it's the same people who believe that they're putting AIDS in the vaccine. It's not just like this logical,
Starting point is 00:52:46 hmm, maybe drug corporations don't have it out for you. It's maybe they don't have it out for you, and they're giving you AIDS. They are giving you AIDS. There's an extra sting to it that is like, okay, step back a little bit. Yes, they're greedy. Yes, they're bullshit, and like, it sucks.
Starting point is 00:53:00 But I don't think they're putting AIDS in the COVID vaccines. I don't think they're giving the world population aids um but you know in in uh 20 years we might have to put out an apology because uh 99.9 of the world's population has aids all thanks to the covid vaccination and then everyone dies and no one can buy any products from these people unless they have the cure wait a second i just figured out what he's on about there you you go, if you give everyone a disease. Yeah. So we'll all need the cure for AIDS soon, apparently. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:31 I discovered it several years ago, but I'm waiting for the right buyer because that's not information I'm going to give away for free. Yes, it would help humanity, but come on. What do you think about Woody Harrelson? What he has to say, a lot of truth, I guess. I guess you would agree with his statements. I like. What do you think about Woody Harrelson? What he has to say? A lot of truth, I guess. I guess you would agree with his statements. I like him as an actor. You know?
Starting point is 00:53:49 I think he's very good in True Detective. Great in Catching Fire. His best role. Fantastic. I still don't understand why they thought it would be a great idea to give him that, like, hair piece. Who is he in Catching Fire again? He's the... I mean, he's in all the hunger games movies
Starting point is 00:54:05 he's the fucking i forgot he has a weird name he's the fucking dude that won previously oh that's right yeah so but they gave him like this fucking weird hair piece it's kind of like when they whenever they give actors like hair pieces that just don't really work for him like when they gave nick cage one or maybe that was just awful hair i remember nick cage had this weird ass fucking haircut at some point in like the mid to late 2000s that just looked odd it like made his forehead look big it like came up a little too it's like it's like he was pushing all the hair that he had and going see i have hair but it was only standing tall.
Starting point is 00:54:46 And he wasn't, you know. Kind of like what you're going through. A little bit. Come on. Luke. Was that Philip Seymour Hoffman's last movie? See, this is MeUndies. Wait, did they sponsor this episode? I don't know. I haven't checked the ads yet. Well, if they didn't, blur that out, Luke.
Starting point is 00:55:02 But they are still fantastic underwear. Yes. But wasn't that Philip Seymour Hoffman's last role? It was one of the Hunger Games movies. I think so, yeah. And they had to CG him in. Yep. Nowadays, they could just use some AI, put it over someone else's face. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:55:15 Make it look super realistic. Well, still a lot of studios fail to do that. I think we've talked about it. I don't know if it was in the podcast or a playthrough. We were talking about how Disney, with all their millions of dollars for some reason, can't get a decent kind of AI face thing. De-aging. Like, it always looks kind of off and weird.
Starting point is 00:55:36 And then someone on YouTube will put up, like, I made it better. Like, a week after it airs. Some college kid. Or like a few days after it airs. Like, I won't say spoilers, but in a certain Breaking Bad spinoff, when there's certain flashbacks
Starting point is 00:55:51 to certain characters, I'm like, why don't they just, like, they go all crazy. Yeah, he's a 25-year-old. Yeah, they go crazy with the practical makeup,
Starting point is 00:55:58 but it's like, that's fine. Do all the practical makeup and then use AI to enhance it. Someone did, you showed me what someone did with Better Call Saul when they did the de-aging technology. And I think it looked pretty fucking good.
Starting point is 00:56:10 I get it would be too much to do it for the entire series. But it was only in certain scenes. For certain flashbacks. Especially if they were black and white too. You know, I think it adds to the whole like, you know how certain effects can help mask an effect? I feel like black and white would help mask the effect of de-aging a little more. Because when you see color and stuff, I guess, when you see things of how they would be presented to you in life,
Starting point is 00:56:34 your brain, it's easier for it to pick out what's wrong. But if you put a sheet over it, your brain's more likely to probably give it the benefit of the doubt. Aging is weird because i look at videos we did in like 20 even like 2018 and then i look at myself now on videos and i just my face is different yeah like we're hearing like fans for example like when that when they come up to us whenever we're outsiding like outsider inside eating dinner at our one of our favorite restaurants let's say they come up
Starting point is 00:57:06 to us they start screaming i've been watching you since i was in middle school i've been watching you for six years seven years i'm like damn that's a chunk because there's a chunk of my life i remember like when you know we were out here before super mega was, yeah. So, I don't know. It's just weird to conceptualize that amount of time has passed just by doing Super Mega. You guys get to watch us age in real time. And you know what's fun? How have we aged, by the way, since starting the channel? I know I've put on a little bit of weight since Creator Clash. You look great.
Starting point is 00:57:43 And earlier on, I was a little bit thinner. But I wonder how when you look great earlier on i uh i was a little bit thinner but i wonder how our do we look our age since you stopped smoking cigarettes honestly you can tell like a good difference your face looks younger thanks like your face looks a lot younger since you stopped smoking cigarettes thank you i feel like cigarettes well yeah cigarettes obviously age you quicker but like since you stop smoking cigarettes your face just looks more youthful i probably should also start doing like a routine of like since we live in la of uh sunblock or and uh i should be doing that like moisturizer i'm gonna age a lot worse than you you got good genes we genes. We'll see. We'll see. I mean, hopefully we'll both be around to see each other age for a bit.
Starting point is 00:58:28 I hope so. You know? I got to poop. Yeah? Yeah. Is this where we're going to have to wrap it up? It is. It is.
