Sorry, I need to take a swig of my water.
Starting point is 00:01:52 But you look, you look beautiful today. Especially in that hat. That hat, I think, is a big part of it. And that isn't also to say that you wouldn't be beautiful without the hat. It's just that it it it highlights your beauty really yeah or sorry your uh machismo which that's what i was looking for i uh i don't know i'm just nervous that people might think it's like a try hard thing like i'm coming off like i'm trying too hard to like look hip because you know now that no it's what style of hat would you say that is um it's like a leather you know
Starting point is 00:02:26 cool cool guy it's a leather like jacksepticeye hat yeah like kind of it's like a like a newsboy meets leather daddy yeah type vibe and you know it's like you know now that i'm in my late 20s i you know kids on the internet might go oh you know he's not the the young hip uh spry youtuber he was back in the day and they might accuse me of trying too hard to like look no i think i think that hat makes you look young and vibrant and willing to try new things you're not afraid to look stupid and you don't you don't look you just said i'm not afraid to look stupid which would imply that the hat does look stupid no i know that would imply that people trying new things and going out of their comfort zone would make them think that something looks stupid okay I think you missed you missed
Starting point is 00:03:12 the forest for the trees okay sure I don't know what that means and I refuse to even think about what that might mean but uh welcome to super mega cast nope no sorry you can welcome my cheese dude I just welcome to Super Megacast. Nope. No? Sorry, you can welcome them. Jeez, dude. Welcome to Super Megacast, boys and girls. For the audio listeners, you know, I'm trying a new hat out. I'm trying something new. It's something.
Starting point is 00:03:34 We already described it's a leather Jacksepticeye Newsboys leather daddy crossover. Not Newsboys as in the Christian band. But maybe. They look like they would wear this type of hat. As in the Newsies. Maybe that's what meant. But also, I could see... You meant like the newspaper boys.
Starting point is 00:03:53 That type of hat. I could see the Newsboys wearing this type of hat, too. It's a pretty cool hat. And, you know, I'm not ashamed to try something new when it comes to fashion And it worked out Spectacularly
Starting point is 00:04:10 If I do say so myself Wait for it Tacularly That's right That's a weird freaking word brother Spectacularly Because of the tacularly Just come on man shorten. Shorten it.
Starting point is 00:04:25 You don't need to be doing all that. You know? No. How have you been, though? What's new? What's new in the life of McGee? I'm good. I went to go see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Did they guard the galaxy this time? They were more so guarding their friend. The premise, without spoiling too much, is that the guardians of the galaxy have to come together and not save the universe, the galaxy. They have to save a friend. Oh, their friend, yeah. You know, I'm not into that woke shit that they're pushing now. I enjoyed it. You know, I heard that they used the F word.
Starting point is 00:05:04 They did. They did. They did. And it was a pretty natural push and it didn't feel forced. They didn't zoom in and go, fuck you. It was just kind of like they said it in a moment. It was really kind of like, I won't be watching it because of that. I will be boycotting the movie. You haven't seen either of the first.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Wait, you've seen the first one, right? No. Or the second one? Nope. And I won't be seeing the third one. They're fine. I mean, I feel like for those who aren't interested in Marvel, I know this is still quippy,
Starting point is 00:05:33 but I feel like James Gunn brings enough of a personality and different kind of edge than Joss Whedon, per se, who did The Avengers and kind of overdid that and made it very Funko Pop-esque. I would, if it were a mood in a movie, you know? That was the mood board they brought to the movie. Just a picture of a bunch of Funko Pops. I mean... This is what we're going for.
Starting point is 00:05:58 I mean, it wouldn't surprise me. But I think that Guardians of the Galaxy, as a trilogy of films maybe it's because I know like a lot of the behind the scenes stuff like you know James Gunn got cancelled and then got rehired and all that stuff but
Starting point is 00:06:15 I feel like he made just a nice fun heartfelt trilogy that you know it's a sci-fi adventure film. It's not trying to be. It's not like a Blade Runner sci-fi, you know. It's not trying to be.
Starting point is 00:06:32 It knows what it is, and I can respect that. It doesn't know what it is, and it's not like a... You know, there's a lot of movies where you can tell that they hire a director just to hire a director. It's like, yeah, this needs to be directed. Get some guy to do it. And the director's like, yeah, the script says yeah this needs to be directed to get some guy to do it and the director's like yeah yeah the script says this so i'm gonna do this sure yeah verbatim whatever no creativity james gunn puts a lot of i would feel like it's his personality he he adds a
Starting point is 00:06:56 lot of like he has a he talks through a microphone into speakers on set so he can just ad lib and talk to the actors as they're doing their stuff it It's like a James Gunn podcast live on the spot. Yeah. You know? But while it's not like, as I said, it doesn't blow you out of the water, I think it's, as I said before, heartfelt, well-made, fun, and probably the most depressing Marvel movie because it deals with animal cruelty. The little raccoon fucker? That guy? It goes into
Starting point is 00:07:27 his backstory. And as I said, I'm not gonna spoil much, but he is a tragic character. He's always you know, they have always referenced in the past movies, and just to update you on like, he has some sort of past. There's something that he, there's a reason he is the way he is. He was a
Starting point is 00:07:44 drug dealer. Sure. No. Something dark like that. Yeah. he is the way he is. He was a drug dealer. Sure. No. Something dark like that. Yeah, something, you know, whatever it is. He struggled with pot addiction. Yeah, exactly. We all struggle with certain things. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:56 You know, Ryan. But if you like those types of movies, if you just like going to whatever, I'd recommend it. It's definitely the best Marvel film in a long-ass time really yeah because I mean what they had Ant-Man and then want to mania you didn't you didn't think that was I didn't see it I didn't care I didn't care how can you say that
Starting point is 00:08:18 how can you say that this was the best Marvel movie a long time when you haven't even seen did you see Black Adam that's a DC movie I saw I saw Wakanda I'm going to say that this was the best Marvel movie in a long time, and you haven't even seen... Did you see Black Adam? That's a DC movie. I saw Wakanda for... Granted, I fell asleep on the plane while watching Wakanda Forever. But I got the gist of it. I got it.
Starting point is 00:08:35 I saw most of it. Yeah. Was it? It was long. Was it Wakanda Forever? It was Wakanda Forever. Yeah, forever because of how long the freaking movie is. Hey, amen.
Starting point is 00:08:45 You know? And then there was, what was the, there was like another recent one. Oh, the Thor Love and Thunder, I thought like fell flat for me. I didn't even know there was another Thor movie. Yeah, the second one directed by Taika Waititi. Waititi? Yeah. Nice.
Starting point is 00:09:01 That one felt just very like Funko Pop. You uh you know again to bring up the mood board bring a kind of funko pop vibe to the movies sam raimi directed a multiverse of madness which you know sam raimi got goofy in it but it was james gunn just found a really good balance i feel with guardians of the Galaxy of having it please the studio and the audience without sacrificing artistic integrity. And it's cool to see that, especially with a big
Starting point is 00:09:33 brand like Marvel who is controlled by Disney. Right. You know, I don't know. You know, what I heard a lot about and then didn't hear anything about, and I don't know what the dealio is these days? My album. I don't know if you want to give any of that away yet, you know?
Starting point is 00:09:53 Spent more than I made. Oh yeah, but we don't need to get into it. What? I'll entertain you, what? I wanted a feature. I gave you a feature on my album, and I thought maybe returning the favor would be nice, but, you know, it's fine. It's fine. I wonder what you were going to say. I was going to say,
Starting point is 00:10:13 well, I do want to talk about this after the podcast, though, because it actually was kind of rude that you didn't give me a feature when I asked. You didn't even text me back, but we don't need to get into that. I just think that we had creative differences. Okay, you gave Angry Joe a feature, and he doesn't even sing.
Starting point is 00:10:24 So, whatever. Angry Joe, he doesn't have, whatever. Okay, you gave Angry Joe a feature and he doesn't even sing. So, whatever. Angry Joe, he doesn't have... Okay, yeah, we'll get into it later. But basically, there was all that fuss, right, about the Minecraft movie. And then just what? Is that even happening? It was going to be directed by the always Robert... Yeah, always Robert.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Always Robert was going to direct the movie. Rob McElhenney. Yeah. Always Robert. Always Robert was going to direct the movie. Rob McElhenney. Yeah. Always Robert. That does sound like a YouTuber. What's up, guys? It's always Robert, and today I got an incredible announcement. I'm going to be directing the Minecraft movie.
Starting point is 00:10:59 Where is... Okay, wait, wait, wait. I got to look up if the Minecraft movie is still happening. Hey, hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I got to look up if the Minecraft movie is still happening. Hey, hey, hey, hey. If always Robert were, you know, the director of a film in a competition, he would have beat out Shane Dawson. Shane Dawson did win because he was the most talented person. For those, I'm referencing when Shane Dawson was in a short film competition that was also like a TV show.
Starting point is 00:11:24 It was like a battle of the filmmakers. And he won and he got his movie. You know, it was everyone got to make one. What movie was his? Was it the smiley one? I thought it was the high school one. That we watched? Not cool.
Starting point is 00:11:42 No, there was, you know, because there's a 40, there's like a movie-ish thing, and then there's a movie movie, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, Shane Dawson. Not the one where he's fat. The one where he just, like, the one where everyone's horny in every video. It's the one with that, like, they're at the party at the end, and there's this famous line. They're at the party at the end, and there's this famous line. A large woman walks by the camera and walks by a character, and that character reacts.
Starting point is 00:12:12 No, no, no. They don't even make a character react. She's excited because someone mentioned that there would be butter somewhere. Yes, and she freaks out. Did somebody say butter, I think is the line? Shane Dawson was in the writer's room fucking just slapping his knee. You're some fat bitch. Walk in front of the camera. Why'd you give him that voice like he's Bill Burr?
Starting point is 00:12:34 I'm some fat bitch. Walk by the camera. Okay, Minecraft movie is coming out April 4th, 2025. Still directed by Always Robert? No, dude. What? It's not directed by... Robert no dude what it's not directed by alright dude
Starting point is 00:12:48 it's not directed by Always Robert give it to me give it to me straight straight and simple you are going to maybe flip a single shit
Starting point is 00:12:58 when you hear this name Jared Hess let the gears turn for a second Jared Hess he's got a the gears turn for a second. Jared Hess? He's got a brother that he makes movies with, with the same last name? It's not ringing any bells. They made a certain post-modern slice-of-life film in 2004
Starting point is 00:13:22 set in a small town in Idaho. Napoleon dynamite director. Yeah. And Nacho Libre director. No way. He's doing the Minecraft movie. Wait, that director or someone related to him?
Starting point is 00:13:34 Jared Hess. Jared Hess. Oh, okay. Screenplay by Rob McElhenney. Uh, and I don't know these other names, but,
Starting point is 00:13:42 uh, Roy Lee is producing it. He's a very famous producer. Oh, there's something else to add I wanted to add with this. You know, I hate to be that guy, but... If you look over here... Damn it. I'm not looking at the circle game, dude.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Whatever, dude. You can't get me with that. Fuck you. You looked down before I could do it. If I had it there... I didn't look down. You did. Well, you looked down before I even placed it there. Like had it there. I didn't look down. Well, you looked down before I
Starting point is 00:14:06 even placed it there. You're not going to get me. No, I'm not going to get you. I'm telling you what happened. Look at me. I'm telling you what happened. I'm not trying to get you. I'm not trying to goof you right now. I raised my hands up so Matt knew that. Okay. Don't put those
Starting point is 00:14:22 hands down. I've been doing this for warm up, baby. JK, I don't want to do this. Dude! Jason Momoa and Steve Carell are in the Minecraft movie. That's the only cast they've announced. That is unfortunate. And it's Warner Brothers doing it. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:37 I mean, I'm glad that it's happening. You know? I didn't know it was, you know, I stopped hearing about it, and then I just wasn't sure what was going on there. The only thing I feel like I've liked Jason Momoa in was the Game of Thrones, where all he did was like grunt and, you know, danced around and got really violent. I don't think I've ever watched something he's done and like been taken into the character I don't think there's any way for them to make the Minecraft movie without it just looking like one of
Starting point is 00:15:12 those like Captain Sparkles music videos you know where they just like overly like they animated the characters like to have a little more like they're gonna make it the Lego movie and it's gonna be like some kid who doesn't have friends and he's gonna discover them in minecraft then he's gonna have they're gonna have to meet in real life at the end of the climax and it's like real life people yeah we could be in
Starting point is 00:15:33 the minecraft movie i mean there's still so much time guys that's you know if if ryan and i you get you know guys like if you you know there's still time you know like if you did like a petition you guys you know like if you just maybe wanted to you know try to's still time, you know, like if you did like a petition, you guys, you know, like if you just maybe wanted to, you know, try to get us in because there's still time to get us in the Minecraft movie, Jason Momoa, uh, more like Jason Mimosas. I'd rather have a couple of Mimosas after watching anything he's in. Yeah. Cause, um, cause he, uh, cause he, he's Aquaman. Um, he was this centaur creature in some Netflix film, I think. What else is he?
Starting point is 00:16:10 I have no idea. There's still time to get us in the movie. That's all I'm saying. He looks like someone they would get in some shitty alternate universe to play Jack Sparrow in the new and improved. That's what I feel like they're getting. The next Jack Sparrow is going the new and improved. That's what I feel like they're gonna, like the next Jack Sparrow's gonna be like some
Starting point is 00:16:28 Dwayne the Rock. You know, like Dwayne the Rock as Jack Sparrow would be kind of kind of awesome. You know? It's a jar of dirt. He does
Starting point is 00:16:43 his laugh rock, he looks at the camera kind of gives that little one eyebrow raise that would be fucking awesome dude and can someone tell me why is all the rum gone I could see it now I could see it now but instead of like the typical Jack Sparrow
Starting point is 00:17:02 get up they do the kind of pirate thing where it's like he's the strong man. He'd be shirtless. Yeah, he'd be shirtless and maybe he'd still be bald and he would just have an eye patch. Yeah. Maybe some pirate tattoos. There'd be plenty of jokes. In fact, it would be a running joke that he has a big penis.
Starting point is 00:17:19 A big sword? Like, I don't know, they go to Tortuga. And he sees the girls, but they're all scared of him because of how fucking massive his penis is. You think Disney would write that into the next Pirates movie? Yeah, they'll put it in the ride, too. When you're on that fucking boat with the beautiful smelling water. God, it smells good. Going by, like,. Damn I need to
Starting point is 00:17:45 fuck someone. Dwayne the Rock says in his pirate voice. When's Dwayne gonna get like a nice mature serious role? You know? What? Like like Rampage? No I want him to do some art house shit. Fast and Furious? No I want him to do
Starting point is 00:18:01 some like. Hobbs and Shaw was a spin off which is as close to an independent film as these actors are going to get. I want like an A24 movie where The Rock's the main character, but maybe he plays like a... I don't know. Like Live Action Moana? Is he in Live Action Moana? Yeah, he's going to play his character in the Live Action Moana. It works pretty well.
Starting point is 00:18:22 I think it's ridiculous because Disney Live Action... It's so dumb. They are one of the biggest goddamn studios. Moana. It works pretty well. I think it's ridiculous because Disney live action, they are one of the biggest goddamn studios, if not the biggest, right? They make so much fucking money and all of their movies look like absolute fucking
Starting point is 00:18:36 garbage. It's awful. It pulls you right out of it. It looks so bad. Have you seen this like the Little Mermaid like in the CG and everything? nobody wants the hyper realistic shit no it doesn't make sense it takes all the charm away from it because like i don't get it why can't they make it cartoony and then put it in with real life like if they made like if they made the fish and stuff look like pixar fish but then just mix them with the
Starting point is 00:18:58 real life with the same lighting and stuff it would look awesome like people it would be charming but to give it it's just a fucking crab it's just a it's just a crab like there's nothing charming about it we're just remake the movie in a different type of animation style and like switch up the cat you know the casting and stuff that way i don't i don't fit i don't or maybe just don't fucking remake yeah that's what i was gonna say you don't have to remake all these classics as live action the perfect example is like uh pinocchio right it's like a story as old as time, but it can be told in several different ways. The first time Disney told like its story, right? It had a certain look and atmosphere and blah, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:19:35 Then you see Guillermo del Toro's and he took his own interpretation and made his own story out of it using the same characters and set up and and story beats um and like with that they also made a live action pinocchio movie disney did and it's like yeah of course people aren't gonna like it because it's one just out out of its time like it's not of that era i don't think kids are going to enjoy it the same. No. Especially when it's taken down a few pegs when it comes to, like, the quality. Animation, regardless of how old it is, it's still beautiful. Like, I guess objectively, but it still, like, looks gorgeous. Back then it's hand-drawn. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:15 And, like, you can feel the passion in it. Like, the first Little Mermaid movie, like, that animation is amazing. But here they do, they probably get a rush job from a bunch of, like, interns or just animators over in Canada or something like that. Somewhere cheap. And maybe they, if it's actually done in studio on, like, a decent time and everyone's happy, I would be fucking surprised. But the only way for me it can, like, look this bad is if it's just a rushed job and they're not giving like the people enough time even then it's it's deeper than that because as you stated it's it's down to the character design that's what i was gonna say it's it's not just like it's not the animators faults or it's not like i don't even think it's on the rush job aspect i think
Starting point is 00:21:03 it's on the creative direction. I was saying like the studio is forcing those deadlines. I think it's the creative direction. Like they sat down and they're like, okay, so, you know, this charming animated crab is now just going to be a hyper-realistic crab. Crabs are probably one of the least appealing, friendly-looking creatures on the planet. Sebastian's wonderful i know he's he's cute he's charming he's fun he's charismatic but like a just an actual crab there's nothing charismatic about it there's nothing charming about a crab i think is one of the worst oh it's
Starting point is 00:21:38 just a fucking ugly fish fish are also one of the most unappealing creatures on the planet like they just look bad. You know, like there's nothing charismatic or charming about the way a real fish looks. That's why in a cartoon it works, because they made it cute and fun. They made them big and fat. And a goofy face, and it's exaggerated. With a pudgy nose. No, but then when you go to a real fish, it loses all of that charm.
Starting point is 00:22:03 And I don't get why, like, one of the biggest corporations in the world, the biggest entertainment corporation in the world can't see that. I think it's like they don't. It's like it's this movie is is no one's passion. It's Disney. It's just recycling an IP. Yeah, it's like while a lot of Marvel can try to mask it and stuff with personality and charisma and stuff like that, these movies, it's really hard to mask the disingenuousness of it because there's no directors really attached that,
Starting point is 00:22:41 I feel like this is their passion project. They were asked to make it. And I feel like it's a script that was asked of someone instead of a script that someone had lying around and were passionate about. It's just really a business decision. And at the end of the day, when something is so blatantly, all it is is like a two-hour fucking for Disney it's like why do I want to see this I'm just gonna go
Starting point is 00:23:07 watch the animated version back home and get that nostalgia rush get some giggles I thought I remembered this and I looked it up and it said that Disney is making live action versions of all their classic animated movies to maintain copyrights because all of Disney's animated films are based off other previously released books and
Starting point is 00:23:24 or films. So they make them while they currently control the IP. So they remake them to maintain control of the IP every few decades. That's why they made that shitty Lady and the Tramp live action shit and put on like Disney Plus. I don't understand why they just don't take this trash and just throw it on Disney Plus. That's where it kind of belongs, you know, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:23:44 with the Little Mermaid 2. Lion King 2 is fire. I love the Lion King 2. A lot of fun songs. Lion King 1 1⁄2 was a treat as a kid. I don't know how it is as an adult. It's also weird that they got Jon Favreau to do the Lion King live-action remake.
Starting point is 00:24:02 Yeah, but, like, he's... The thing is, for Disney, he was uh i mean they had their differences with the whole iron man stuff there was like a lot of push and pull iron man one and two yeah three he stepped or he's he wouldn't didn't he didn't direct three that was shane black who uh he shane black directed the good guys, the Ryan Gosling. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And directed Kiss Kiss Bang Bang with Robert Downey Jr. and some five, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:34 But regardless, Jon Favreau has a checkered past with Disney, with that whole shit, so they bring him back. And the thing is, in interviews, if you watch him, They bring him back. And the thing is, in interviews, if you watch him, he himself seems very excited about the documentary style of realistic lions and animals. It's like it's a documentary. It's like, look at that fur.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Look how real that fur looks. It's more like it seems like an obsession. Like James Cameron was obsessed with the technical like uh the technical advantages he had with tech uh by producing certain technology for the first time to be used on a film and i'm sure that's exciting but you know he at least channeled that into creating creating a world and story where favreau just like did it as an aesthetic which seems very just cheap and and and lame one thing i'll say is is i think an apt description yeah doing the live action lion king and making it hyper realistic at least what they have on their side is that like
Starting point is 00:25:39 a lion cub is is like the real thing is cute you know and you want to look at it face has no expression but a fish is not cute a crab is not cute so it's like it it i could see how you know it would make more sense to do the hyper realistic shit for the lion king remake you know it's like oh you know it's a lion cub that's at least stylize it you've seen the shit where people go and photoshop and kind of like i think what would have been perfect was hyper realistic environments and like fur but like just stylized slightly because then i feel like that introduces like the imagination i don't know if i'm a kid it's cool to see these things brought to real life but there's you know the nostalgia speaking probably but there's just something about like animation where it it whatever cgi does is trying to uh replace in what they did with animation in those
Starting point is 00:26:38 back then they just can't do because it comes off as cheap. And maybe kids don't recognize that. It's just loud noises and fish, and they probably love it. But I can't imagine people having a deep nostalgia and going back and still liking the films that still many adults love Disney films to this day. Going back, there's people who are like, Little Mermaid is still my favorite movie. I don't think anyone's favorite movie
Starting point is 00:27:03 is the live-action Lion King. I'd be surprised maybe, Little Mermaid is still my favorite movie. Right, right. I don't think anyone's favorite movie is the live-action Lion King. Maybe. I'd be surprised, maybe, but I couldn't imagine that person's outlook, I guess. Like on life? On, yeah, I mean, I guess I'm being a little an asshole about it. You are, because actually, Ryan,

Starting point is 00:29:32 I'm just saying, backwards maybe? Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I'm trying to think. Do you think the backwards looks good? I think it's the same hat, but wearing it in a different way makes it feel fresh. You know, is that what you're going for? Do you want to feel fresh? I do want to feel fresh. Like the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air?
Starting point is 00:29:48 I don't know, but I don't want to bring attention to the fact that I swished it around. Speaking of Will Smith... What about him? Will Smith Jim said he would be here Jim said Was that the surprise guest he was talking about?
Starting point is 00:30:13 Yeah, and that's Maybe we both have Will Smith I guess he just didn't show. No way. I don't know. There's still more podcasts. Who knows?
Starting point is 00:30:28 Maybe Will Smith. Maybe if y'all stick around and listen to the whole podcast, Will Smith might show up by the end. Who knows? Will Smith might appear. That's really cool. I didn't know he was coming today. I mean, he's probably fashionably late.
Starting point is 00:30:45 Hat. Like all famous people. Speaking of fashionable, hat. Forward or backwards for when he's here. I think backwards. You think backwards is cooler? Yeah. We're talking about the Fresh Prince here, man.
Starting point is 00:30:52 Next ad break, we'll have another discussion and we'll finalize how I think. I have an idea. But we'll talk about it in between. Okay. This is big. What's big? This idea that I have. Yeah. What's'll talk about it in between. Okay. This is big. What's big? This idea that I have. Yeah, what's your big idea?
Starting point is 00:31:09 For your hat. Oh, it's for the hat? Okay. We'll do it in the in-betweens. Okay. Okay. Well, I'm looking forward to it. But also, I don't necessarily want Luke to keep all this in because I don't want it to
Starting point is 00:31:17 look like I'm... If people know I'm thinking this much about the hat, then it takes away any cool... Like, the hat has to be nonchalant. So just, Luke, you know what to do. Anyway, yeah, so what's new Scooby-Doo? Well, how about you? You were on a movie kick. I said I saw Guardians of the Galaxy 3. Did you see anything new? Yeah, I've just been watching all the old
Starting point is 00:31:45 Pixar movies. I watched Monsters Incredible. I'm sorry. Monsters Incredible. I watched Monsters Incorporated. Have you seen Monsters University? I have, yeah. What did you think of it? I've only seen it once. Well, I watched it right before I actually went off to college.
Starting point is 00:32:01 So I watched it in 2013. I liked it. I mean, it was, I thought it was a fun sequel, prequel, I guess. It wasn't offensive.
Starting point is 00:32:14 No. Well, I'd hope not. You know, Pixar tends to not do inappropriate stuff, but, well, there was that one offensive scene,
Starting point is 00:32:22 you know, but, you know, them portraying indigent, don't need to get into it, but weird choice on Pixar's part to do that. Yeah. But, yeah, I liked it. I thought it was like a fun, you know, would I rewatch it? Not necessarily. But Monsters, Inc. holds up? Monsters, Inc. does hold up, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Monsters Inc does hold up yeah look I always it's interesting going back because as much as in my head I'm like the Incredibles you know as long as these Pixar films you know they're gonna hold up and they do but you really do see the age yeah there really was this sense of when we were younger like this is the peak of animation yeah what pixar was that's who you went to and it's like okay who's whose technology is the best it's always been pixar well bug's life was the big one that when i watched bug's life i was like oh man oh yeah does not look as good as oh it's it's it's a great movie but it's like the animation it is crazy because when you when you and i were kids in the like early 2000s because
Starting point is 00:33:25 when I first saw that movie when did that one come out I think that came out in 1997 yeah I saw it because it came with my family computer on a DVD I had a VHS and the outlining was white on it mm-hmm but my dad's like our first family computer came with that it was one of the old max and bugs live just came with bugs live for some reason uh which i thought was cool on like a silver disc just a silver plain disc and uh back then though like when you're five years old and you watch that movie for the first time it's like animation can't get better than that and then you watch it back now and you're like wow it's it's not bad it's just like it kind of turns me back into the conversation we were having about like kids going to see these new live action films like i'm talking about like oh the
Starting point is 00:34:16 anime like they don't give a shit like to them these live action films are still probably they love them they love them pixar could not what they could not get right was humans like when i re-watched these old movies people look terrifying they look well story one yeah specifically too i feel like you know they had to develop styles when they centered more around people like uh up had a very strong uh it was very strongly stylized they figured it out character design the incredibles was its own thing it was kind of like blending realistic with just kind of like absurd proportions but even monsters inc which i just watched which by the way oh how did boo hold up she's all right it was it was mainly like the
Starting point is 00:35:06 kids that they're scaring look terrifying like but also that movie in my head is a robot yes and they look very scary but honestly one of uh i for some reason didn't remember that movie coming out the year it came out it came out way longer, like way more long ago than I thought it did. 2003? 2001. Oh, shit. I know. That was Pixar's 9-11?
Starting point is 00:35:30 That was Pixar's 9-11 with Monsters, Inc. But for some reason in my head, that came out way later than 2001. But, you know, I rewatched WALL-E as well. I still need to rewatch WALL-E. WALL-E's my favorite Pixar movie. I remember I went to go see it with my youth group, and for some reason I just didn't like it at the time.
Starting point is 00:35:48 And the only thing that made me laugh, and I was like, you know what? This made me laugh. I told my youth pastor. It was when all the fat people were rolling because the ship tipped. You know what's funny? I watched WALL-E and Titanic in the same day,
Starting point is 00:36:02 and they both have a scene where just people rolling down a deck. Yep. But what I like about WALL-E is, I think, I mean, it was such kind of a weird step for Pixar. Because they had not done, you know, they did like all this cute stuff, animals and all this. And all of a sudden they did this like post-apocalyptic dystopian thing where it's like trash and nastiness and most of it is a tom and jerry aspect in terms of like the dialogue is at a minimum for the for the protagonist you know yeah i like that you know it doesn't really
Starting point is 00:36:38 do say much and i also loved uh it's so weird how when they show like videos from like this time period they just use real footage of people so like the president is Fred Willard and it's just actual footage of Fred Willard R.I.P. Fred Willard R.I.P. A comedic legend
Starting point is 00:36:57 It was a comedic legend and it's just it's so weird seeing in WALL-E he's the president and he's like we gotta get the heck out of here and they used real footage I thought it was fun so are you going in order or are you just kind of picking and choosing
Starting point is 00:37:10 just picking and choosing I still gotta watch Incredibles so you saw Bugs Life you saw Monsters Inc are those the only two so far no I watched WALL-E I watched Finding Nemo I think Finding Nemo is if you watch Finding Dory you see the technical advances they made.
Starting point is 00:37:27 We're like, are that like really good. But still, I like the ocean shit like holds up. It looks so good. And everything. It looks amazing. That was a big one. I think the second one they bragged about the octopus tentacles and how they animated them. And in the first one, it was just like getting the ocean right.
Starting point is 00:37:47 It looks great. And that came out in 2003. So I do remember I saw that. I remember seeing that in theaters. I remember just being scared whenever a big whale, even the whale in the distance. I was like, oh, yeah. Looks like you might have a...
Starting point is 00:38:01 Yeah. Are you subscribed to r slash Thalassophobia, dude? No, and it's interesting. I go on there every now and then just be like, damn, uh, yeah. Are you subscribed to r slash thalassophobia, dude? No, and it's interesting. I go on there every now and then just to be like, damn, that is creepy. What gets me more is, uh, r slash submechanophobia. It's just big, it's like. Big animatronics? It's big machines underwater, or like big, uh, man-made stuff underwater.
Starting point is 00:38:23 That's, that's freaky to me. Like, uh. Like James and the Giant Peach with that mechanical shark that attacked him. That's why that was so horrifying as a kid. It's just shit like the up-close of cruise ship propellers from underwater
Starting point is 00:38:36 and how big they are. It's like terrifying. I don't know why. It's just because it can just kill you instantly. Did you watch James and the Giant Peach as a kid? I love that movie. James and the Giant Peach? Love it. Love love that movie. Okay. James and the Giant Peach? Love it. Love it. I probably saw it like two years ago.
Starting point is 00:38:48 It hasn't been, you know, I watch it every now and then. It still holds up. Makes me hungry, man. Incredible. It's almost one of those films that I would love to just have on and fall asleep to. It's just so warming. I always wanted to eat those fucking little glowing green worms. I'm not scared of you anymore, you stupid wino.
Starting point is 00:39:10 And it stops, yeah. He goes to the Empire freaking State Building in that movie. He does. You know? And he's saved by the Child Protective Services, I guess, ultimately. CPS comes and saves him. Yeah. It's a great movie.
Starting point is 00:39:23 It made me so hungry. The part where they're like inside the peach and they're eating it. Yeah. And they're like serving up it as a drink and all that shit. Like you said, like the the special little wish worms the guy gives them that are glowing that are in that bag. And one hops out and goes into the peach because he didn't catch it. Those I was like, I want to eat. I want to eat those.
Starting point is 00:39:41 Those little they look like pasta. It looks like radioactive pasta. I'm like, I could eat those things, you know? Little gummy pasta. I really fuck with radiation. Do you? A lot, yeah. I kind of play with it in my free time when I get home.
Starting point is 00:39:56 Do you still have that vial of uranium? We do. It's in the other room. Uranium bombs. Ah, okay, okay. Something was clicking in my head. It was an episode of SpongeBob. F is for friends. F. Ah, okay. Okay. Something was clicking in my head. It was an episode of Spongebob. F is for friends.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Yep. U is for uranium bombs. That's a classic Spongebob moment. Dude, I saw a recent Spongebob clip and they draw him different now, man. Like, yeah. His nose is shorter. He's like smoother. He's smoother and he's too cleaned up, dude.
Starting point is 00:40:25 They made him too clean for all these leftist whack jobs out there. What did they do to SpongeBob? Let me guess. They gave him purple hair? They did. He has purple hair now. I don't know if you've watched the new SpongeBob episodes. You didn't even, like,
Starting point is 00:40:46 the burp didn't look like it came out of your mouth. It looked like it was an added-in sound effect because it was so casual. No, it wasn't. I just, you know, I'm that talented.
Starting point is 00:40:52 You are pretty talented. When it comes to the flatulence and belching, you could honestly... Dude, if you tapped into the fart fetish community, you could make crazy, crazy dimage, dude. M crazy, crazy damage, dude.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Mundo coin? Yeah, dude. You could make freaking mucho dinero, okay? I'm serious, man. You could fucking sell those fart videos online. I just noticed. What? It only matters for the visual aspect.
Starting point is 00:41:19 What? But my little display is cut off. Oh, my God. You made it this whole display and now it's just... Should we move it? I mean, the audio listeners are going to be upset because I'm fixing something
Starting point is 00:41:33 that benefits the viewing aesthetic of watching. I don't know. I feel like if I help the visual viewers out, am I choosing a side? Are the people who only listen audio-wise going to lash out and attack me? They will, Ryan. But if you don't fix the visual side, then the visual viewers will lash out at you. Maybe it's one of those things like, you know, there's 13 babies on a railroad, you know, railway.
Starting point is 00:42:04 And then there's, let's say, 14 babies on another one. Do I pull the lever and save that one baby? Yeah. Switch it up, actually, and then say what I said again, you know. You know what I'm trying to, you know what I'm saying? The way you phrased it would be if you pull the lever, you'd kill more babies. Yeah, I know. That's why he said you have to switch it.
Starting point is 00:42:31 This is the old trolley dilemma here. Do you kill 14 babies or do you let it go? Well, Ryan, let's be real. If we're talking about the podcast listeners, yeah, we're talking about 14 babies. about the podcast listeners yeah we're talking about 14 the mixture of my genuine laugh and your narcissistic pathetic display of a million oh i love being evil you know say so should i am i taking that action and killing the 14 babies if I move this? I'm already talking about it. For the audio listeners, I made a beautiful setup that contains a foliage, our book, our brand, and a candle.
Starting point is 00:43:19 All made into a little, like, hey, look at this display. When I walked in the room, I went, ooh. Yeah. Damn. So. Damn. So did Luke. It looks really nice. Luke walked in and said, that's a nice little setup you've got there.
Starting point is 00:43:30 And you can only see the top of it on the visual. I've derailed the pot. I just made a conscious effort to pick our book up. Are we going to choose a random passage to read again, you and me both? Why not? The book is still for you. You can still get it.
Starting point is 00:43:45 How long has it been since? It's been a minute, dude. And we're still selling hard copies and soft copies. Hard covers are sold out, but paperback is online. And you can get the audiobook narrated by Gino Samuel. And can people also buy the Lionsgate Studios produced film made from our book? Yes, they can. Yes, they can.
Starting point is 00:44:10 Where can they do that? We got a cease and desist, but like from because they said that we couldn't use their logo. Who cares? I mean mean it's just a logo so I'm not sure if that what I'm saying is I don't think it technically released because well we released it to the public online and we you know
Starting point is 00:44:37 we sold it at a couple garage sales and shit and they're pissed that we put their logo on it but they should be flattered that we put their name and logo on it seems like the most safe studio to kind of like fly under you know anyway sorry Matt is about
Starting point is 00:44:53 to pick a passage from the novel we wrote titled Super Mega Saves the Troops he's choosing one, it seems. He's not getting one at random. Seems like he's not letting fate decide. A lot of people say, hey, well, you know, is it a real book?
Starting point is 00:45:15 You know, like, it is. Well, I mean, first of all, take a look at that. That's pretty thick. Audio listeners, take a listen to this. And that was only about half of it. It's a real book. Renfair who recently started reading the book. Yeah, shout out to that viewer who we ran into at Renfair that hasn't finished yet.
Starting point is 00:45:32 I hope that you enjoy the ending. Here. Here's just a random one I found. Okay. Ryan popped off a little toot in the Japanese man's face as he climbed out. Ryan hoped no one would notice, but boy, was it stinky. We were in Japan, you know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:52 So it's not like I picked him out of a crowd. Purposely. Targeted him for his ethnicity. He was just, we were just in Japan. Shall I pick a random one? Yeah, go for it, man. Now I'm actually going to be random. LOL.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Yeah? LMFAO. LMFAO? LMFAO? People say LMAO, but they never say LMFAO. Rothel? Watch this. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:20 I was going to say, what if it's a bad passage? But guess what? There are no bad passages or bad sentences in the whole book. Go, go, go, Matt hollered as bullets began flying over their heads The gondola was off and the boys were out of there the school of okay Yeah, the school of brutish Italians quickly piled into another nearby gondola in lickety-split They were on their way down the canal to shoot some good boys good and dead Yeah, I mean that's... How did we get in this particular
Starting point is 00:46:47 predicament, you know? How did we get in that predicament? Particular predicament. How did we? You'll have to read and find out after these ads. Crypto is like finance.

Starting point is 00:48:11 Keep it rare, I need a Happy Meal, McCrispy, and 10 McNuggets. Tasty golden fries, a cold drink with extra ice. Junior chicken will be fire, and a sweet hot apple pie.

And now, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, remember earlier when I was saying, hey, there's a new style. You heard Matt put it on normal ways,
Starting point is 00:48:47 which is facing forward. Then he turned it around and it was a backwards, goofy Jacksepticeye leather daddy hat. And now, you know, I mentioned a style that I wanted him to wear. I had an idea. The visual listeners already see it, but to you audio listeners, it's sideways now.
Starting point is 00:49:05 Not front-facing, not backwards, but sideways. I had no idea. Sidewards. It's sideways. I honestly had no clue when you said you had a big idea. I didn't know what could be done. And this is great. This is really a fantastic style.
Starting point is 00:49:22 How's it feel? Actually feels like technically it feels like it's fitting my head the best this way. It looks cool too. Like this actually is probably like the sickest way to wear this hat. I know. That was why it was such a good idea. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:49:38 Thank you, buddy. If you saw buddy? Yeah. I like that though. It's like brother and buddy. Buddy. It wasn't intentional, believe it or not. Hey, man. Sometimes happy little accidents, you know? I meant to go brother, but it just came out as bruddy. I like bruddy.
Starting point is 00:49:52 I think bruddy is a good slang term that you've just coined. Well, we have to make sure that no other... We have to make sure the whites have it 100 on this one. Because we've been known to state claim on things before that weren't originally ours. Accidentally. Just make sure you point that out.
Starting point is 00:50:14 It's like, oh, this new slang word. You sail for thousands of miles, you think you're gonna be you know, not just down the I don't know. You'd think that, oh, no one has claimed this yet. I wasn't there. I wasn't there, so who's to say? Exactly. You know who was there?
Starting point is 00:50:29 Was Adam and Eve. And Jesus Christ as well. Christopher Columbus landed. Yeah, they're from Missouri. That is true. Well, no, Jesus was real. It's just like this new wave. Well, Jesus went to America.
Starting point is 00:50:43 But he wasn't the last. They're saying a new prophet came about. That wasn't the son of God. That was just like God had new things to say. And one of the things he had to say was that Jesus came to America. Oh, my. That's right. Because the originally Native Americans were white.
Starting point is 00:50:58 And the Garden of Eden was in Jackson County, Missouri. That's what Mormons believe. My favorite aspect of. And Mormons, no disrespect. You know, it's your faith. It's what Mormons believe. My favorite aspect of... And at Mormons, no disrespect. If it's your faith, it's your faith. I just think my favorite aspect...
Starting point is 00:51:11 Hold on. Before you say that, you say no disrespect, but usually, that typically is followed up with disrespect. It's more so just what I'm about to say. I don't...
Starting point is 00:51:22 It's... He's like, pardon my French, but it's one of those. Okay, I don't it's like pardon my French, but you know it's one of those. Okay, yeah, but when someone says pardon my French, they almost never speak French after that. No. Unless some of these curses derived from... No. No. That would be Bastard.
Starting point is 00:51:38 You know. Bastard. That sounds French. But anyway, my favorite thing of the Mormon belief is, you know, like Joseph Smith was given the... Farquad, you know? Farquad? Farquad. See?
Starting point is 00:51:51 Sorry, go on. Is that the joke? I think so, yes. Oh, that's great. But basically, Joseph Smith was, he found the gold plates that was the New Testament of Jesus Christ. And he had the two seer stones that he had to put them into a hat and then look inside the hat the dark hat so the letters would light up and he could translate it to English but my favorite thing was the re-translate
Starting point is 00:52:14 everything because the guy that transcribed it told his wife and his wife was like how do you know he's not lying he's like no he's telling the truth and she's like okay then I'm gonna hide this and if he is telling the truth he'll be able to just re-translate it again and he did and he goes back differences and then he's like no god is furious now that that that you've lost these papers so now it's gonna be a different version because he's so pissed and then it was a different version and everyone's like yeah makes sense to me very funny they ran him out of town though didn't they joseph smith yeah i don't know if they ran him out of town, though, didn't they? Joseph Smith?
Starting point is 00:52:45 Yeah. I don't know if they ran him out of town. They better not have. He was a good boy. Okay. Good, good, good. How many religious, like, you know, nowadays, if someone claims to be religious, no one will ever take it seriously. But back then, for some reason, it was taken more seriously, and it blew up so big.
Starting point is 00:53:04 it seriously but back then for some reason it was taken more seriously and it blew up so big i think it's still taken pretty seriously especially in terms of politics because it's because uh religion controls a lot of uh political outreach in a lot of different countries no i mean claims to be religious and sense of being a prophet you know yeah we're like back then it seemed like it was common and then they were a prophet and still if If you're a prophet now, people are going to roll their eyes and go, whack job, you know. Yeah. Which that's what people said about Jesus, by the way. Just want to make that clear. You ever think maybe Jesus was just like an illusionist, like not David Beckham, David Spade.
Starting point is 00:53:42 David, what's his name? I think it wasn't a. Chris Angel. I think Jesus was an unfortunate man that spouted some stuff and then got mercilessly, brutally killed and tortured because he was mentally unwell. I think they just did that to a mentally unwell guy. He had a lot of friends who liked him.
Starting point is 00:54:05 He got pretty popular. One friend who didn't like him, apparently. Are you talking about Judas or Pontius Pilate? No, I'm talking about... Pardon my French. Judas. The guy he kissed on the lips? He betrayed him and then he kissed him on the lips.
Starting point is 00:54:26 He did. He kissed him right on the lips. Yeah, he did. You tell me one of the last things Christ did before he died was kiss a man on the lips? Who should know what the, like, I mean, some of, right, some of the Bible are supposed recounts of the retelling of the story or direct recounts, some of them. I mean, back then, stories were just retelling. They were just retold because there was no actual record, right? No, especially since it was transcribed.
Starting point is 00:54:57 I mean, Jesus existed. I mean, Jesus existed. Like, Jesus existed. I don't think a lot of people, some people try to say he didn't but I it's obviously existed because it's like there are records of Him existing. You know like Kings talking about him and you know stuff like that, but What if he was just a guy that was just trying to make the world a little brighter Or maybe he was just an abusive cult leader. Yeah because I mean like it is kind of crazy to think about what if you know he was just
Starting point is 00:55:26 a just a crazy guy suffering from like ideas illusions of grandeur and people and he got enough of a following and then that would that that is crazy though that it stuck around that that he had that much well cultural impact people followed him him because of the greed of the Empire at the time. You know what I'm saying? Are there allegories for Jesus Christ in Star Wars? Maybe, but I mean I think because it's based off of
Starting point is 00:55:58 the original hero's journey which has a lot of I think a lot of symbolism with like God and Christianity. So technically Star Wars took place before Jesus Christ, didn't it? Yes. Wouldn't it have? In a galaxy long, long ago?
Starting point is 00:56:14 Yes. But what I was saying was that it's because he preached a message to the downtrodden people. He was for the common man. And the big guys up top didn't like that. No. Jesus' actual, like, the message he preached,
Starting point is 00:56:30 not a bad message, you know? It was to take in the sick and the hungry. We are talking about a civilization who put it into law to go into the homes and slaughter the firstborn child. Hey, man. Just because you don't get it doesn't mean that you have to be sitting over here and shitting on it you're right man you know you right you know yeah where's pharaoh pharaoh oh baby let my people go yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah We gotta do, just honestly man, why have we not done a full Christian cover album?
Starting point is 00:57:11 Of all the classics Because we're a bunch of doofuses We're a couple of doofuses Yeah, we are a couple of doofuses, man And I don't understand it Oh, I started watching, um I started, I watched the first episode and a half of Righteous Gemstones.
Starting point is 00:57:29 The Danny McBride, John Goodman show. Okay, yes, yes, yes, yes. Also, it's shot in Charleston. Oh, who's that dude from Workaholics? Adam. Adam Devine. Divine, yes. He's in it as well.
Starting point is 00:57:41 He is. Very funny. But it's, you know, it's shot in traulston that's why i watched it and you know the show starts with our god is an awesome god that's like the first scene they're over in china baptizing people and they're singing that song in chinese and it's a really funny show i really like it um and you know what's crazy in the first episode they go to a restaurant and it's the restaurant that was across the street from the Chick-fil-A I worked at. And I saw it, and I did the Leonardo DiCaprio.
Starting point is 00:58:09 Were you having like a little mixed bevy? They also, the megachurch. I was. I had a mixed bevy, and I went. The megachurch where they film, it's where my high school graduation was. I graduated high school in that room. You went to a megachurch? No, they shoot in the coliseum okay the charleston because you went to a classic just like steeple church right i went to a contemporary uh church was it a square
Starting point is 00:58:36 building or did it have a steeple there was an old church that was attached to it but they had an old church service for the old people that was like the organs and then I went to the fucking rock and roll for Jesus Christ type service. God is epic. How great is our God. They had the fucking drums. Sing with me.
Starting point is 00:58:55 How great, how great is our God. You ever think about you and I could repent and Yeah, we could but you know you ever think about you and I could repent and yeah we could but
Starting point is 00:59:07 you know what's the fun in that we're still in our 20s Matt we have a lot of time for repentance no no no I just thought of a business plan Ryan
Starting point is 00:59:16 for us that might be the best business plan super mega purity rings no no okay sorry wrong track
Starting point is 00:59:24 that that is an add on that will make even more money listen to this we repent right we give up this lifestyle of being inappropriate immature youtubers we come back to god and then we make a living going around speaking to Christian youth, giving seminars and sermons at big church events about how we gave up that lifestyle and found our way back to God. And the kids will want to see us because they'll go, oh, those are YouTubers. They knew PewDiePie. I used to smoke weed every day. It's always that type of shit. It's never like I was shooting up heroin for eight years.
Starting point is 01:00:04 It's like I smoked weed. I was in was, I was shooting up heroin for eight years. It's like I smoked weed. I was in college and I would smoke weed every single day. And I liked it. And that's the danger of it. The devil doesn't give you things you hate. It would be too easy. You'd hate him. It would be simple.
Starting point is 01:00:17 He tricks you. It's the things that you love that he'll work his way into. We should honestly rent like a. Like your parents. Like your parents. You can't trust your parents. You can only trust God. Don't trust your parents.
Starting point is 01:00:30 Only trust God. Only trust God. Not your parents. God is the ultimate. All powerful. All knowing. We're talking to you Lucas. Lucas.
Starting point is 01:00:37 Lucas we're talking to you. Don't trust your parents. Don't trust your parents. Whatever they do. You can trust them for now. But just remember God's number one baby. God will always be number one. Your parents.
Starting point is 01:00:46 One day we're going to randomly pick the wrong name to do that joke about. I know. Some kid is going to have a mental breakdown because of that. No, but we should honestly rent a church one day, like a big auditorium. Fill it with youth and parents.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Bowling balls. Sorry. What? Why? Wait, no, no, no. That's a better idea than what I was going to say. Yeah. That's it. A bowling ball.
Starting point is 01:01:09 A brim with bowling balls. I show up to shoot thinking that there's going to be like youth there, like extras. And there's trucks loading bowling balls in. Ryan, what do you do what what where's the extras dude i thought we're doing the bowling ball thing what we should we should honestly shoot like get the cameras the whole like broadcast setup and shoot like an hour-long fake sermon that we give as ex-youtubers to the youth about repentance we've kind of done that
Starting point is 01:01:42 but this would be a step up from it. We did the Christmas special, which was fun. In my mind, that's an S tier video. I saw some Megheads went and they made a tier list of our live action videos. I need to stroke my ego a little bit.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I saw it on Twitter and people were making different versions of the live action tier list. Were they tagging us in it? Like the super mega? Yeah. Okay. And I agreed with some, I disagree with some, but I think the Christmas Eve sermon is S
Starting point is 01:02:11 tier. A lot of people disagree with that, but I think it's a fun one. Well, it was all improv in terms of, I like our live action stuff that we produce. I'm excited to produce more of it. Me too. But I just think that if people were to somehow, I don't know, come into contact or possession of or side of like five bucks, five bucks it would be able to afford them a lot of extra bonus content from a certain set of youtubers couple of youtubers like us they like where they could go to a site called patreon pay this five dollars get extra bonus features like a like a new movie uh watching uh the show you know uncle sleepover they could watch
Starting point is 01:03:08 an extended version of this podcast for example as well well it's its own after show wait you're telling me that every episode of of the podcast that we release has a fully additional exclusive segment only if someone were to have possession of five dollars you know but five dollars i mean A fully additional exclusive segment? Only if someone were to have possession of $5, you know. But $5, I mean, what? $5 a day is expensive, Ryan. Yeah, it gets... $5 a day? Of course.
Starting point is 01:03:35 But then you weigh it yourself. You go, is this a practical decision? Is this something I can afford? And then if it's no, that's all fine. We still love you here. $5 a day. But if they do find it worth it,
Starting point is 01:03:55 they'll get a ton of epic, awesome, extra content that you can only get for $5 a month. A month. Did I say day? I was saying day, so you go, no, it's not $5 a day. Sorry, no. It's actually only $5 a month.
Starting point is 01:04:10 $5 a month. Or you can also sign up for a full year in advance, which is cheaper than buying a hoodie. Damn. Yeah. Well, sounds like it's cheaper than a video game. Sounds like a certain after show is about to be recorded, which means that unfortunately. There's all sorts of fun stuff over on that freaking Patreon page. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:34 And two Q&A's this month. And we'll be back again with the same podcast next week, as well as like, who knows what else is going to be uploaded in that time? Who freaking knows? We've got some fun live action in the works. Let's but but we but, you know. We shot a really crazy video. It is.
Starting point is 01:04:50 It's just going to take a while to edit because it, again, we're just, I don't want to share too much about the video, but it is an intensive edit. We're just, Tucker's in the process of organizing and cutting everything to make it cohesive so we can go in and add the narrative. Here's what I'll say.
Starting point is 01:05:12 Here's what I'll add, because people might be like, oh, you guys are just lazy. Intensive edit, there's 30 different camera angles. Over 30 different camera angles. Yes. 30 different cameras were used. It's not anytime soon this video is coming. We're thinking, I actually don't want to make any promises. No promises.
Starting point is 01:05:28 But it's not going to be months. We're working hard on it. Yeah. And just because of the fact that there are over 30 cameras used simultaneously filming, it's a lot to go through. Yes. So, I mean, not just going through it it but having to cut it up to tell a story and we just recently
Starting point is 01:05:47 uploaded we've been sitting on the footage for a while I think after Creator Clash just that whole year in general
Starting point is 01:05:53 we were just kind of feeling like we just sat on the footage for a long time and you know we both lost our masculinity and our respect
Starting point is 01:06:02 from all of our loved ones and our parents when we lost our fights so we had it took a lot of time to earn one our masculinity and our respect from all of our loved ones and our parents when we lost our fights. So it took a lot of time to earn, one, our masculinity back and the trust of our peers, friends, and family members. I don't know. Loved ones. Well, Ryan, if I'm being honest, when you lose a boxing match,
Starting point is 01:06:19 especially one that's of this nature where it's friends boxing each other and it's like YouTubers each other. Yeah. And it's like YouTubers boxing. If you lose that, you lose your masculinity and you lose... Your sense of integrity. Respect. Your self-worth is down forever. It never comes back. You don't come back from that.
Starting point is 01:06:37 In your eyes and the eyes of everyone around you that saw that, that saw that despicable act. Anyways, I guess what i'm saying is it takes time you know it takes time and we we we we we rebuilt those connections and roads and now um you know we were able to put our egos aside and put our guilt and our shame away, throw it away in the trash. And Tucker put together, you know, Justin cobbled it, you know, and Tucker went in and, you know, there's a lot of like mechanical work done by the two. And it turned, I think it turned out great.
Starting point is 01:07:21 Yeah, we have a great documentary out now that chronicles the lead up and the behind the scenes and our fights and the commentary over our fights as well as what happened a year later. Um, so that is out now on our channel. It's called Super Mega Losers Creator Class 2022. It's about a 35 minute documentary. Really, really good stuff. Um, unfortunately though, I, as good of a documentary as it is, it does not bring back my dignity, my masculinity. I was emasculated from that and I've lost the respect of loved ones. I've lost the respect of everyone in the industry. I lost the respect of you.
Starting point is 01:07:55 And you know, I can try to joke it off. It sounds like there's a chip on your shoulder about it. Well, the thing is, I try, you know, I can try. I'd say talk to your therapist about this. Don't tell people I go to therapy. That's what women do. Well, if I was being honest, therapists about this. Don't tell people I go to therapy. That's what women do. Well, if I was being honest, therapists about this. How about that, buddy?
Starting point is 01:08:10 How's that for honest? Okay, well, let's just fucking do the after hours then. Clearly, you never got respect back from me after that. It shows. Bye, everyone. Do you think the hat looked cool the whole time? Did it ever, like... Dude.
