Hello, this is the 43rd episode of the Super Mega Podcast or the Super Mega Cast.
I'm here with the one and only Matt.
That's me.
Matt, we have a special guest today.
We do have a special guest, Ryan.
I would like to point out, we're very progressive.
It only took 43 episodes to get our first girl on the podcast.
What?
It's the lovely Pamela Horton.
Hi.
I'm clapping for myself.
That's fine.
It's perfectly fine.
Is that first girl?
Are you serious? Yeah, 43 episodes in. fine is that first girl are you serious
yeah 43 episodes
it's the first girl
we've ever come into
contact with
and you kind of
you kind of didn't
stretch too far
because I'm a girl
that constantly gets
confused for a guy
so
is it the hair
do you really get
confused for a guy
it's also too
I don't have a very
feminine posture
so like a lot of girls
are like you know
like they chest out
shoulders back
and I'm just like I'm like slumped over.
Just mouth breathing.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And plus, I'm I am very, very, very much a.
Yeah, I don't like to wear makeup.
I don't like to wear.
I'm very.
I'm lazy.
I'm just going to say I don't like wearing makeup.
I have this weird thing that, Matt, you know.
Oh, I know.
Yeah.
It's not that I hate makeup.
It makes me just kind of
do this. I want to say you're scared of it
almost. Because if I see
bright red lipstick or
makeup caked on someone
and I'm talking to them, I guess,
I feel uncomfortable
in this situation. And as a woman,
I feel that it really
raises the standard of your own beauty. When you look yourself in the mirror in this situation. And as a woman, I feel that it really, it really raises
the standard of your own beauty.
Like when you look yourself
in the mirror
and you're like,
you have all this makeup on,
you're like,
freaking A,
I feel freaking fabulous.
And then you take it all off
and you feel ugly as shit.
Like I'm gross now.
That is your beautiful form.
And I feel that
if women took more time
to wear less makeup,
they'd feel more beautiful
in their own skin
and feel less insecure.
But I know that's really hard
because, you know, there's a lot of there's a lot of media
out there that would like Photoshop and makeup and, you know, selling you on all this stuff.
And you have to really be comfortable in your own skin in order to not wear makeup.
Or you could be like me, just be freaking lazy.
We've had a lot of sketches and videos where you've had to put makeup on.
And every time we've had to put makeup on you, you're almost not scared, but you're like adamantly against it.
Yeah.
Does he shut down?
He shuts down.
All of his senses shut down.
Let me put it this way.
I used to play baseball.
With makeup on?
Yeah.
And you know the stuff like the, what is it called?
When you put on your cheeks, the cold stuff?
I didn't even want that.
I didn't want that put on when my dad was like, when I was like a pirate for Halloween
one time, a few, like two years ago.
I'm kidding.
Two years ago.
Like when I was probably, I don't know, like seven or something.
And my dad was like, yeah, we're going to put some fake dirt on your face to make you
look like a pirate.
I'm like, no, no, no.
Fake dirt?
Pirates are always out at sea.
Fake dirt.
He probably was using real dirt.
Just slap some seaweed on your face and call it good.
Do they use real dirt when they do people's makeup?
They probably use makeup powder.
They have fake dirt.
See, it is fake dirt.
Fake dirt is real.
So you're over here making fun of me for like, what is that?
It's fake dirt, right?
No, no, no.
Well, it would be he probably, was he using fake dirt, fake, fake dirt, or was he using
real dirt on your face?
It came with the costume, so it was like black smudgy stuff.
Okay, okay.
That's supposed to.
Well, I'd also like to point out, pirates 90% of the time are out at sea where there's
no dirt, so why would you put dirt on them?
If anything, they should take Elmer's glue, put it on your face, and peel it off
so you have dry-looking skin. Yeah, like sunburn.
You got scurvy and stuff.
Got some freaking scurvy, man.
Don't consume any fruit for
a month before you get in your costume,
so you really feel like you're playing the role.
I think I did
with the whole Halloween
thing, I definitely stopped trick-or-treating
too late. I did too. I think the last definitely stopped trick-or-treating too late i did too i
think the last time i trick-or-treated was actually in high school oh i was in high school when i did
my last did you have kids with you or did you just go i had i had a lot of kids with no no um
i have kids right it was just me and my friends with kids it was just me and my friend and like
we didn't like dress up big time because that was embarrassing. Did you put on a shirt that said
costume and then went door to door and then people
would like. I got
mad at people who did that because I'm like they're just trying to
take candy but then whenever we went to a house
at least five houses
denied to give us candy because they thought we were
too old. Yeah so when I stopped
trick-or-treating I almost don't even want to say the age
What was the age? Were you in high school? I was 17
So you were a junior or senior by that point? I think I was a junior in high school. I went trick-or-treating. I almost don't even want to say the age. What was the age? Were you in high school? I was 17. So you were a junior
or a senior by that point? I think I was a junior in high school.
I went trick-or-treating with my friend because
it's free candy and I love candy and I don't want to
give candy. You do love candy. I do love candy.
I cut back on it because it makes me feel like shit
when I wake up. Like at 3am I'll eat
like, I'll go to 7-Eleven and I'll get
like three bags of candy.
And when I say bags, I don't mean like three
bags of candy. I mean like three grocery bags of candy.
I get heartburn.
Yeah, I'll eat like all of it.
And then I'll wake up at 6 a.m.
wanting to vomit with heartburn.
And then I can't move all day because I feel like absolute garbage.
But I was 17 and I went with my friends and a bunch of houses were like,
you're too old to be trick-or-treating.
And they denied me candy.
I had the short end of the stick. I was forced to stop trick-or-treating. And they denied me candy. I had the short end of the stick.
I was forced to stop trick-or-treating
well before I was ready
because I was living in a small town
outside of Wichita, Kansas.
And so everybody knew me.
Everybody's like, oh, you know,
they're the mom of the cousin
of someone in my grade.
Everybody knew everybody in the small the small I had a graduating
class of 90 people
this wasn't a public
school
it's in the middle of Kansas
it's Clearwater Kansas
when Matt and I talks about coming from like the
bumfuck nowhere South Carolina here you
are coming from a place where you graduated
with only 90 other people
you must know everyone in your high school when that happens.
Oh, yeah.
I just recently went to my 10-year reunion.
Oh, wow.
And I just went back to my 10-year reunion because, you know, like I kind of felt like
I wasn't bullied at Clearwater, but I was bullied in middle school.
And so it's kind of like, hey, I did something.
And, you know, I kind of want want to take a moment to soak that in.
And so I went to this reunion.
I remembered everybody's names.
Do they remember yours?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
You said you were bullied.
Did you have a nickname that they would call you?
Snorton Horton.
Snorton Horton?
Yeah, that's what they called me.
Did you do a lot of coking?
No.
I'm kidding.
No?
Back in middle school, yeah.
I was really hard into that Coke when I was like 10.
As we all were.
No, when I laugh really hard, it still happens.
When I laugh really hard, I'll give one really loud snort.
That probably won't happen on this podcast.
No, it probably will.
Is that a promise?
Like, I won't make you laugh.
We're not.
We aren't about laughing here.
I'm not funny enough, Pam.
Oh, stop it.
You made me laugh before the podcast even really started.
You hear that, listeners?
Yeah, hear that, guys?
That means we're funny in real life.
Validated by a real girl.
Yes.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Wait, so I've never been to Kansas, and I just get the impression that Kansas is flat
and full of corn.
And tornadoes.
It's actually wheat.
Corn is Nebraska.
There is corn in Kansas, but it's mostly rolling fields of golden wheat.
Are there witches on bikes?
No.
Just curious.
Is that a Wizard of Oz joke?
No.
Okay.
I was just wondering.
Okay, no.
It's totally separate.
I'm actually getting ready to go back to Kansas because my parents are moving up to Washington, and my mom has MS.
And I'm the only child that doesn't have a full-time job, so I'm going out there to help my mom pack up and move and stuff.
But every time I go out there, you know, out here we have connections, we have industry, we have people.
But we have, you know, ass assholes two-faced ladder climbers
all that fun stuff when you go out to kansas you get the raw community you get people who genuinely
want you to have a good day even if they don't know you and it's just it's humbling to go back
to kansas and and feel that that sense of community like everybody really cares about each other
and so um you know so I feel safe.
It's my returning point whenever I need to,
like if shit, got a really bad relationship,
just need to go back to Kansas, reset for a little bit.
And I have really good friends that I've managed to keep in touch with,
people I've known for 16, 17 years.
And that's a long time for me
because my family moved around a lot.
Oh, I feel the same thing on a smaller scale i mean i'm from charleston which is obviously a big city but it's
not like a huge metropolis and i i feel the same way going back just to south carolina and even
going back to like where ryan's from columbia which is a much smaller place like i love capital
of south carolina where all the good racist shit happens.
They have Confederate flag protests
probably every month there.
Good, good, good fun stuff.
Just good people.
But the thing is, they're all nice.
They're super nice.
All the people are nice.
They're smiling with you.
They're nice to me, at least.
Well, I do love, I really like small towns.
I feel like people are a lot more real,
especially because I had never been to somewhere like feel like people are a lot more real, especially because
I had never been to somewhere like LA my whole
life until, I think like
two years ago to the days
when I first came to LA. And I met you
two years ago today, Ryan. Was that yesterday
or today? That's today.
Wow, look at that. I just
stumbled upon that little fact. Time has fucking
flown by. How did you remember the very specific
day? Because I have an app called TimeHop
which lets me look at old
Facebook posts from two years ago. And two
years ago I posted, just landed in Los
Angeles. And then I met Ryan.
So exactly a year
ago I walked into a room. Where I was
pretending to masturbate to
old lady porn.
He thought my friend at the time
I lived with Daniel
Kier, he's really cool
I was expecting Daniel to walk in
and I was going to introduce myself
in a funny goof
because he's the one that was talking to Daniel
so I was like sitting at Daniel's computer
so I go into my friend's room to like find Daniel
to be like hey, hey Daniel
but nope
this guy he's never met sitting there with elderly porn on the screen.
And I'm pretending to.
How did you time that?
How did you like, okay, he'll come in right now.
I sat there for a good three minutes just like pretending to.
I was just like, all right.
I like how you're doing the motion too.
Well, I have to show what I'm doing.
That's not actually.
That's Pam making that.
But then Ryan walked in.
I turned around thinking it was Daniel, and I saw Ryan, and I was just like, oh, hey, dude.
Hey, nice to meet you.
And then I closed the browser, and then that's how I met Ryan.
It was definitely a slow burn, you and I getting along at first.
It was definitely a.
Yeah, that would be jarring.
If I saw that, that would probably.
Yeah, I would immediately not be cool with that person.
Just someone in your apartment doing that. Because you didn't live there, right would probably, yeah, I would immediately not be cool with that person. Just someone in your apartment doing that.
Because you didn't live there, right?
No, no, no.
This was my first time meeting the two of them.
Oh.
I talked to them over Facebook.
And then they were like, yeah, come hang out.
So then I flew out to Los Angeles and that's how I met them.
And that's how I got my start out here.
Oh, man.
So thanks, Ryan.
Fun fact, I was actually born in LA.
Really?
I grew up in Kansas.
Really? I grew up in Kansas. Really?
Yeah.
So my dad is from born and raised and lived the majority of his life, actually all of
his life up until we moved to Kansas in California.
And my dad is an engineer in aerospace.
So he got a job.
And, you know, Wichita, Kansas, Wichita, Kansas is the air capital of the world.
Most of the planes that you fly on are typically built out there, like Boeing, Wichita, or Kansas, Wichita, Kansas is the air capital of the world. What?
Most of the planes that you fly on are typically built out there, like Boeing, Spirit, Learjet.
They're all out there.
Did you get to fly on a bunch of planes when you were little?
No.
No?
Actually, the first time I flew was to come back out here when I was 23.
What?
You didn't fly until you were 23?
Yeah, well, because my-
How does that happen when your dad works on planes?
My dad works on planes.
He doesn't fly them.
But still, he could stow you away on one for the experience. Also, too, we liked, my parents were very much about the experience.
And so whenever we traveled, we drove because you got to take little stops.
You got to spend more time together.
You didn't have to, you know, we went camping every year.
And it was amazing.
Like, I've explored most of the wooded areas of California
and most of the what would be considered camping areas in and around Kansas.
But, yeah, no, I never flew until I was about 23.
Wow.
First time ever.
Do you have a scary camping experience with any woodland creatures?
Woodland creatures?
No. People, yes. No bear stories? a scary camping experience with any woodland creatures woodland creatures no people yes no
bear stories i i used to go on reddit and like read scary camping stories do you have anything
fun and terrifying you could um so i learned from a very young age that i was prone to being
pursued by pedophiles oh geez and so there were multiple times when, because we lived in Lancaster when I was five years
old.
First time I, actually, I shouldn't say first time.
I remember Halloween, but I didn't actually go trick-or-treating, was my mom had taken
my sisters and my brother out trick-or-treating, and my dad and I stayed home.
And my dad was just, I think at the time, honestly, I think he he was playing link to the past and was just sitting in the living not totally not even
paying attention to me and uh so I was uh getting ready for bed and I'm just walking around in my
underwear and there was a man in our backyard oh jesus christ and I remember my dad going outside
and like chasing him down and I just remember like, there's a man in the backyard.
Oh, you know, what's he doing?
It's nighttime, go to bed.
They should make it mandatory for all children to carry like bull whips.
So if they ever see a pedophile,
they can just stay back.
They're like, oh,
pedophiles would be terrified of it.

That's A-N-G-I dot com.
They all carry these huge whips.
They give them to the school,
have lessons on how to whip.
How to whip a man in the face.
That would not go well in the South.
And then their theme song would be Whip It by Devo.
Yes.
Just whip it.
That song is actually
about something else, though.
The song's about jerking off. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. My dad's...
Oh, God.
Funny thing is, I was about to say my dad, and then
just left it at that.
That song's about jerking off.
That's my dad.
My dad masturbates.
It's the similarities. No, no, no, no. My dad masturbates. That's the similarities.
No, no, no, no.
My dad is very into what would be considered untraditional music back before it was culture,
like pop culture.
Your dad's a hipster.
Yeah, my dad is an original hipster.
So we listen to a lot of Devo, a lot of Oingo Boingo, XTC.
I've said ecstasy instead of people like, no, you don't listen to ecstasy.
You take it.
You know, like, well, okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
That's exactly what I meant.
Thank you for the correction.
I appreciate it.
But my dad would, I remember thinking back, oh my gosh, I love this song.
I'm going to listen to it again.
It was the little girl song by.
Oh my God.
And I was like, I used to remember dancing to this song. That's a creepy song.
It is.
Super creepy.
It's not a bad song, though.
And I would dance in the living room of our house, and my dad would be singing it to us.
How does the song go?
I don't know.
It goes, I, I, I love little girls.
They make me feel so good.
That reminds me of Say Anything is a song called Little Girls.
And I love Say Anything.
And it starts out, and he goes, I kill, kill, kill little girls and i love saying anything and it's like and it starts out and he goes i kill kill kill little girls such a thrill thrill thrill to the world it's like it just
starts off with that and it's funny i i was i was working at this place and there happened to be a
teen mom and i was single and she was single and so we went out on a drive and I just pressed the play button and that song came up.
And she seemed very uncomfortable.
Because she has a little girl.
She was a teen mom.
She had a little girl.
So it's just that song.
And I'm grooving to it.
I'm having a good time.
It's a match made in heaven.
Yeah.
So that was an interesting experience because she was dead quiet the rest of the ride until
I dropped her off because I was just dropping her off from where we were.
Did you play the whole song or did you just...
She just let it ride out.
I didn't notice.
It was like she texted me or mentioned it the other day.
I can't really remember too well,
but she was just like, that song,
why do you listen to that stuff?
I'm like, it's not a song about killing little girls.
Even though the main lyric is,
I kill, kill, kill little girls.
And I get a thrill from killing little girls.
Is it about, is it about, what is it about? Tell me get a thrill from killing is it about is it about what is it about tell me tell me what's it about yeah what is it about
for me oh we're like our perception of it not the real meaning can you break it down i uh like
sometimes you're gonna do it looks like i was gonna put the whole mic in my mouth if i talk
with a mic in my mouth oh god gross it. Oh, God, gross. It would sound exactly like that.
Sometimes I want to stick the mic in my mouth,
and then I remember everybody talks into the mic for hours.
I mean, it's probably covered in disgusting bacteria.
The more germs you equate yourself with,
the better your body is at defending it.
Your immune system grows stronger.
So that's why I'm not afraid to eat stuff off the floor and stuff like that.
I just think the dirtier I can be after
I shower, because I do shower
every now and then.
Also, it could also just be the factor
of being lazy, you know?
I don't give a shit.
I've always been one to eat things off
the floor, and I've had friends that
if it touches the floor,
they freak
out and they'll never eat it. And I'm like, the five second rule.
Actually, on Mythbusters, didn't they test the five second rule?
And it's like bullshit?
I don't know.
I always think back to...
Is that even real?
I don't think it is.
But like back before we had houses, back when we were like fucking cavemen and women, we didn't care of like...
The food was already on the ground.
They didn't rob you.
The ground was just there.
Well, but back then we didn't have a cleaning process for food.
A lot of people did die, true.
So, I mean, but also too our bodies were used to the shit that we put in it and we died
earlier.
But, you know, like we've sacrificed the ability to eat whatever the hell we want, wherever
it came from, to live longer.
So, tomato, potato.
That's why when like there's a little trade off there I guess.
Yeah.
I'd rather eat stuff
off of the ground though.
Yeah if I drop like goldfish
on the ground
and like someone's dog
is going to eat it
and they're like
don't let him eat that!
It's like he used to eat raw meat
like out of a dead carcass.
I'm sure a few goldfish
won't kill him.
No not a few goldfish.
If he eats like a whole fucking tub
you got problems.
You think?
I did.
I've done a bunch of research
like dogs.
Oh that's the worst with a dog.
My dog Lego accidentally ate
some Cocoa Puffs.
Probably like
10 little circles.
15 little circles of Cocoa Puffs.
And I looked it up.
Dogs have to eat a good bit of chocolate
before something really bad happens.
I guess the most important thing is just
watch them and make sure
they don't show any signs. Well, let them eat a little
chocolate, guys. That is our
tip of the day for the podcast. Don't let your
dogs eat chocolate. But what I'm saying
is don't... It won't kill them
but it'll give them horrible stomach problems.
They'll poop everywhere. Well, all I'm saying is
don't cry and
run around the house and think that your dog's
gonna die if he ate a single puff of cocoa.
Well, our guest on the podcast, Pam, does have a message.
And she says to let your dogs try eating some chocolate.
No, I did not say that.
It's going to be linked to you.
He is coming after you.
Oh, no.
You told me that before the podcast.
You said you wanted to let people know that it's okay to feed your dog chocolate.
I did not.
There's no way I can prove it either.
She's flip-flopping everywhere.
You just pry open their mouth, take some Hershey's syrup, and just squeeze it down their throat?
But Hershey's isn't real chocolate.
Is it not?
Do you want to try that with my dog?
I have to.
Want to test it?
No, there is chocolate in Hershey's, but I actually found this out when I went to the
Netherlands for VidCon EU.
Are you going to ruin Hershey's for us?
out when I went to the Netherlands for VidCon EU.
Are you going to ruin Hershey's for us?
I actually used to have a huge hard-on for Hershey's, but ever since I went to the Netherlands,
they actually have laws against the cocoa consumption and the amount that you can have in chocolates.
Really?
Everything is super high cocoa potency.
Chocolate there is real.
Isn't chocolate bitter in its true form?
It's super bitter.
That's where you get the milk chocolate when they mix the milk with it, and it's not as bitter.
But the milk chocolate out here is mixed with processed sugars and bunches of stuff that make it sweeter, but not necessarily more chocolate.
Things that are so
making me slower to move yes essentially exactly and uh so when i went to uh amsterdam and i had
a hot chocolate there it changed my life oh my god it was life-changing i had a life-changing
hot chocolate who can say that so wait is it similar to dark chocolate like cocoa it's bitter
it's like is it like bitter like dark chocolate it's it's uh dark chocolate is is cocoa? It's bitter. Is it bitter like dark chocolate?
Dark chocolate is a lot, it's kind of like
more of that raw
I don't know, like raw cocoa.
It sounds so brutal.
Give me that raw cocoa.
But it's
a lot of the sugar is reduced.
The natural sweeteners are taken out
and it's just super freaking bitter. It's more of the natural, like actual
cocoa from the
cocoa beans. Which actually
Do I look interested in chocolate right now?
You do not look interested. I can't, I actually honestly
could never read your face. You can't?
Do I have a very just kind of
kind of a dead face sometimes?
In the nicest way possible.
Do I have resting cock face?
No, but I see, no not resting cock face
I see it as like an adventure
because that means there's more to you you're not putting everything out there so there's more to
discover and explore you as a person are an adventure see i don't know i don't know how i
come off to other people so could your hands or your i i talk a lot with my hands i was making a
sex joke ryan doesn't actually know about sex uh me neither yeah so i'd like we we can't talk about
that because his mom actually called me recently and said that on the podcast we were getting too
close to having about talking about what sex is and she doesn't want to know that yet okay so your
mom listens hi mom she does listen so does my mom hi mom my mom listens could you could you say
hello cecile hi cecile hope you're having a wonderful day say hi to my mom. Hi, mom. My mom listens. Could you say, hello, Cecile? Hi, Cecile.
Hope you're having a wonderful day.
Say hi to my mom. Will you say hi, Anne? Hi, Anne.
I hope you're having a wonderful day. There you go, mom.
Now she'll be happy because my mom's going to text me and be like,
you talked about all this disgusting stuff
with a girl on the podcast? And then
immediately said hi to me.
Yeah. My mom will be happy now.
There you go, mom. Real happy. Please stop
listening to the content I make. It's really embarrassing and I don't want you to listen happy now. There you go, mom. Real happy. Please stop listening to the content I make.
It's really embarrassing, and I don't want you to listen to that.
Thank you.
Aw, that's support.
I've used the podcast as a way to nudge my mom in a direction of, like,
she'd post pictures that I wouldn't want her to post on, like, Instagram,
like baby pictures that, like, fans ended up getting,
and I'd be, like, on the podcast and be like,
man, it really sucks that my mom does this,
and then since she listens, it clues in, and then she'll stop it she's like for a month and then she'll go right back to doing
i think he's trying to tell me something it doesn't work when i tell her directly
yeah if i'm like mom please if i ask her nicely mom please don't do this doesn't matter yeah but
if it's on the form of the super mega podcast, she has to abide. Then she's on it.
Do you guys have issues with your mom accepting friend requests or things from fans?
Yes.
Not him.
No, my mom actually is completely out of everything.
She sits back and watches.
Good for her.
My mom interacts with the people, and I really don't think that's a smart move, mother.
I really don't think that's a I don't think that's a smart move mother I just I really don't think my mom understands
these so my mom
these creatures
my mom actually
and this is a sense of pride
and I feel really good that she does
this but every time I go back to Kansas
I go to my parents house
and then she'll be like hey come walk over to Chuck
and Chuck and I'm like who's Chuck hey, come walk over to Chuck and...
I'm like, who's Chuck?
Like, let's walk over to Chuck's house.
And I'm like, why?
She's like, well, I told him we'd come over.
I'm like, for what?
She's like, he's a fan of yours.
Oh, no.
Wait, what?
Wait, like in real life?
Yeah, yeah.
Just like she tells them before I get there
that I'm going to come over
and then doesn't ask me
at all because that's your family.
This is a stranger. Yeah, 100%
I'm talking about that's happened to me. Your mom
met a stranger online and had you
meet them? No, not a stranger online, but
but my mom will my parents
have have met people before that
they'll have a like a son that's like
oh, yeah, come come come. My mom didn't meet them online.
Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I thought you were talking about
your mom just met someone online.
I'm a fan of your daughter.
Can I meet her?
She has done that, but not met them in person.
That's how we met Pam.
You see your mom just counting bills?
Yeah, she's actually my internet pimp.
But no, she's trying to take me to liquor stores where the liquor store tenant will just be behind the counter.
And my mom will probably be talking about me.
And they'll be like, oh, yeah, I follow her on Instagram.
And then she'll be like, oh, next time she's in town, I'll bring her to meet you.
And then she'll never tell me until I get there.
And she's like, hey, come with me to the liquor store.
I need to pick some stuff up. And I'm like, okay. And I go with her to the liquor store. And she's like, hey, come with me to the liquor store. I need to pick some stuff up.
And I'm like, okay.
And I go with her to the liquor store.
And they're like, hey, here's Ryan.
You've never met him before, but there's Ryan, that guy right there.
I know you.
I know you.
I've seen you online before on Instagram.
I follow you.
Here, buy some alcohol.
Do you want to?
Can we take a fan pic?
Can we take a picture?
I've done that in a liquor store, in a frickin' liquor store.
Because I didn't...
Now at this point, I have to second guess when my mom wants to do stuff.
Because she doesn't tell me immediately.
And then it'll just be right there.
Hey, by the way, here's this random person who knows who you are.
And you had no idea that this whole thing was going to happen.
And then it's like, hey, how you doing?
Nice to meet you.
We've talked about this before.
But you were just mentioning a picture in a liquor store with a fan. We had an encounter. We've talked about this before, but you were just mentioning, like, you took a picture in a liquor store with a fan.
We had an encounter, we've talked about this before, as I said, where we were on the highway driving back from Las Vegas.
A car pulls to the side of us, and they go, hey, do you like your Fiat?
I'm like, yeah, I like it.
It's a nice small little car.
I can fit into tight little places, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
They're like, okay, we were thinking about buying one.
All of a sudden, it's like, my daughter says, are you Ryan?
I'm like, yeah.
And then like, of course they see Matt and Daniel in the back.
And it's like, oh wow, they turned out to be fans.
And so we.
In the middle of the desert.
They took a picture of us on the highway while we were like driving the car.
It was just this weird, just.
So you guys were actually moving.
You weren't pulled over. We were going slow bumper
to bumper. Was it? No.
Not at that point. I thought it was pretty slow.
Not at that point. You were probably still drunk.
I was very drunk. At that point, if I
remember correctly, it was
not that traffic heavy.
It was because we were probably going like 50
55 miles an hour just driving next
to someone along the way. Not when she was talking.
Huh? Was she yelling at
you while we were going like 50? Dude, I'm picturing this scenario
and it's like, it's creepy. I remember I was driving
and I had to keep looking over. Oh, I remember like
a slow crawl. We ended
up slowing down, but like when she first
kind of like looked over, we were going.
Now I'm imagining we were going like
90 down the freeway and she's just screaming
over the wind like, are you running?
Does that come across in the fucking mic at all?
That effect that I did? I hate when you're
in the back seat of a car.
You're just in a car and there's one window down
and it's just that...
Will that make you pass out?
It hurts your ear.
I start getting lightheaded and it starts...
Could you pass out from that?
The inner ear thing.
The pressure in your ear. That's why... Could you pass out from that? The inner ear thing. It's like the pressure.
The pressure in your ear.
That's why if...
Have you ever had labyrinthitis?
I have no idea what that is.
Okay, so labyrinthitis is when you're...
Basically, part of the membrane of your inner ear is swelling
and then the water in your ear doesn't know where to go.
So you constantly feel like you're drunk.
I've never had that.
I've had...
It was a side effect. You've had this before? that. I've had, it was a side effect.
You've had this before?
Yes.
I've had it.
I had it for a very long time where if I wasn't, if I wasn't like laying down on my back with
my head directly facing the ceiling, I felt like I was like rolling.
Like.
Oh God.
Yeah.
My body just.
How long were you like this?
I missed three days of work at the time.
I missed three days of work and i didn't
fully recover for about three weeks how do you go about recovering what does the doctor have to do
okay how does it happen and then how do you so they give you they give you like antibiotics
because usually they they say it comes from from an infection but my my lady doctor thinks it was
a side effect to my birth control so he took me off my my birth control and that's when the stuff
started to subside but i was also taking antibiotics at the time, so it could have been the antibiotics or the
removal of the birth control.
Don't really know, but I'm just glad that it stopped.
I've heard a lot of horror stories about birth control.
Yeah, Ryan and I would not be able to.
But they'll eventually get put on the right stuff, and everything evens out.
But if you get put on just something that you just don't connect with.
Because it messes with the hormones in your body, right?
Yeah, and a lot of girls, especially now, want to do the like no chemical, no hormones,
no blah, blah, blah types of birth control.
You know, obviously, I'm now 29.
I just turned 29 last week.
Happy birthday.
Yeah, thanks.
Happy birthday.
Thanks, man.
I wish you a happy birthday now since I didn't do it over Twitter.
It's okay.
I apologize that I didn't tweet you happy birthday
No it's all good
You seem a bit peeved that I did
He opened my birthday present
What?
That time you opened my birthday present for my mom
It was a trash can how was I supposed to know your mom sent you a trash can for your 21st birthday
You make it sound like it's a piece of shit
It was a nice trash can
It's a nice trash can yes but it's a trash can nonetheless
And we were talking about getting it besides the fact
Sorry Pam go on
Let's steer away from nice trash can, yes, but it's a trash can nonetheless. And we were talking about getting it. Besides the fact, sorry, Pam, go on.
Yeah, continue.
Let's steer away from this trash can conversation.
But I've been on birth control since I was 15.
Same, yeah.
Yeah, right?
Right?
But I've trialed and errored my way through a bunch of different things. I've learned that I have very, very low tolerance for hormones.
So when I'm on a high hormone birth control i'm a bitch i am the worst and uh also two uh hormones can't just make you
they don't just make you mean sometimes they make you depressed so when you start taking birth
control and your body like levels out and then you slowly feel yourself starting to get depressed
and then you think it's something in your life so i went through this period of rapid horrible depression because i was
on a low dose hormone birth control that i thought my body was dealing with good i lost my acne my i
was losing weight i thought it was good but i wasn't happy and then got off of that birth control
suddenly was happy again and so with the emotional changes that
happen with birth control i like is is that stuff that does it create those emotions you wouldn't
be feeling sad or does it enhance them does it just kind of intensify stuff that's already there
and i'm really glad that i've never been on i've never been on a period so i've never been on a
period so what i like what i explained because i feel like I'm a sentient cyborg as a woman,
where I know when I'm PMSing.
That's how everyone sees women.
I know when I'm about to be a bitch and I'm like, I'm sorry, I'm irritable.
I apologize.
Get as far away from me as you can.
Because what I like to see it as, you know, like, what do you call the, fuck, what do
you call the...
A period?
No, what do you call the periods?
No, the gels. The gels that you put in front of lights
to change the color.
The gels you put in shoes?
The colored gels that you put in front of lights
to change the color. So the light doesn't change.
How much light is being put out doesn't change,
but the color that it exudes is different.
So I imagine, as a metaphor,
that you're putting up a different color gel
changes the light.
The person doesn't actually change.
A woman isn't actually changing.
She just has no control over what light she's putting out.
Like someone's throwing up this gel and she's putting out a blue light.
And you're like, dude, that fucking blue light's not cool.
But she can't change it because she has to deal with it for three, four days.
So, you know, like that's the best way that i can explain it but
i'm aware and i i'm normally very very much in tune with my body and my emotions so when i'm
feeling irritable i'm like dude i don't know why but it's really pissing me off that ian put the
the toilet paper roll on backwards like he always does that fucking pisses me off and i don't like
and i want to pick a fight with him and then and I'm like, why? Why? Why? Just turn it around.
It's not like he was doing it to get at me.
It's really hard to navigate through these emotional mazes when girls are PMSing.
It's so bad.
And I feel, honestly, guys, you guys are cool.
Men and women who deal with women who are PMSing are freaking awesome.
You hear that, men of the world?
Yeah.
Can we get a round of applause for me and Ryan?
Fuck yeah.
You guys are so patient,
and you deal with so much shit that you don't have to.
But then again, power to those girls
who deal with the shit that they're going through
and have no control over.
Yeah, but it sounds no fun.
It's not fun.
I feel like whenever I have to be on camera
when I'm about to start my period,
I'm like, gotta center myself, gotta do do something gotta listen to some freaking queen or something
because i'm not feeling this and people are gonna tell like you you guys know me pretty well like
i'm high energy i'm happy i'm bubbly when i'm on my period i am not nice no and i'm like i i don't
want to talk to people i'm just like i'll I'll just stare. And, you know, like it changes you.
It really changes you.
Yeah.
I can't get in that mindset.
Like I can only understand the way you're explaining it to me.
But I guess because I'll never experience it.
Yeah.
I have no idea.
Like is it because I always thought it was like they were irritated with what is going on.
No, no, no, no, no.
It is.
It is a hormonal.
It is definitely 100 percent a hormonal change.
Yes.
So like that gel works two ways.
It changes the way that you see the color of the light and the light that it exudes.
So it can be any trigger.
It doesn't have to necessarily be a certain thing.
You'll learn over time by being with a woman that there are certain things to not do when she's on her period.
Like you don't fuck with her chocolate.
You don't fuck with her cereal. Don't mess with fuck with her chocolate. You don't fuck with her cereal.
Don't mess with her drinks or sodas.
Don't fuck with her cereal. Any consumable, you leave it alone.
You do not fuck with that cereal.
You hands up.
Can I hide little Easter eggs with tampons in them and she can't get a tampon unless she finds all the eggs?
Oh, no.
That would.
Oh, don't.
You don't even.
Practical jokes.
That would go great.
What?
Practical jokes during that time is not okay.
You want to create convenience,
not take it away.
So have them dangling from door frames
just in case she needs one.
Well, I have,
so I have,
I have a drawer in my bathroom
that is like my period drawer
where it has,
I have emergency chocolate.
Does it have like a red flashing emergency sign?
No, no, no.
It's just like when a girl, I've actually, I host girls night at my house and I've had
girls go into my bathroom like, I appreciate your girl drawer.
I like it.
I like your drawer because you open it and it's got all kinds of goodies in there.
It's got the tampons, the pads, the panty liners, and then it's got candy.
It's got candles.
It's got scented things.
It's got wet wipes.
It's got it all.
It's like, I'm's got scented things. It's got wet wipes. It's got it all. It's like I'm set up.
I am.
It's like going into a bathroom where the guy dries your hands off for you.
You got the mints and you got mouthwash.
It's like one of those bathrooms.
It's a fancy bathroom.
Because like, you know, obviously you guys know that periods don't, you know, always
happen like clockwork.
Sometimes you'll be in the bathroom like, oh, fuck.
Okay.
Well, shit. And then
you have to take care of it. And so there's
my take care of it drawer and it's ready
for anything. You've got that shit on lock. It's ready
for anything. And also, too, I'm
support for life. So in any game
I play support. In real life I play support.
So I always try to
make everybody comfortable
and make things convenient.
So I know that if I'm going to have girls night, I'm going to
make a girls night drawer where it's
just secret candy. Other
secret things that I can't talk about.
We should make a girls night drawer.
Girls will appreciate that,
by the way. If you just have tampons at your house,
just, you know,
not to say that you have a girl house.
Yeah, but if it's their first time coming over,
why does he have tampons?
No, no, no. I actually, the first time that I started dating Ian,
I came over to his house.
But I came over to his house and he had tampons in one of the drawers in his bathroom.
And it was a lifesaver.
Girls who are in that situation are like, oh, shit, I don't have anything.
I can't ask this person that I just started dating to go get me tampons.
That is true. That's a good point.
So it saves them the embarrassment because they're not going to tell you,
hey, by the way, when I just started dating, I started my period. That's a good point. So it saves them the embarrassment because they're not going to tell you, hey, by the way,
when I just started dating, I started my period.
It avoids all embarrassment.
And in those situations, those girls
will appreciate the hell out of it.
And I'm not speaking for all ladies.
It could be different. Some girls could be like,
oh, what the hell are you expecting?
Is he seeing someone else?
If she pulled open a drawer and there was a ton of condoms,
that would be different. Why is that different?
Condoms are normal.
Condoms are normal.
Condoms are way more normal to have than tampons in a guy's environment.
They are, but I feel like condoms are stored in a nightstand instead of a bathroom.
Like, hold on, girl.
Oh, yeah.
Let me go to the bathroom real quick.
They're not like in a candy jar in the living room.
When I was in college, the dorms would have candy jars of condoms just sitting out.
They used to hand out free condoms.
On Halloween.
That's a college dorm.
That's different.
This is your house where condoms are used is typically in the bedroom next to the bed.
Bathrooms are where periods happen or period enduring things.
Also, too, I'd also like to point out the fact that it's kind of funny and a little bit funny
that I'm the first lady on this show.
We're talking about periods.
Yeah, all we're talking about is birth control
and periods and tampons.
I have a story that I just remembered
because we started talking about condoms.
Way back when I lived in South Carolina,
I had wings.
And you know how they have, like,
I had a dirty room, like, covered with trash, everything.
Then when you say wings, what are you talking about?
Like traditional teriyaki wings.
Oh, okay.
So I was thinking I was still on the period wavelength.
That was like the wings of a pad.
I was like, what the fuck are you talking about?
So I was eating the wings.
I got done with him.
My hands were dirty.
So I reached down to grab, you know how they have those little like things?
The wet wipes? Yeah like the wet wipes.
Yeah.
The wet wipes.
I know where this is going.
Lo and behold, I just started wiping my hands with a condom and it took me three, like probably
a good three full seconds for me to realize that I was wiping your hands with a condom.
Yeah.
I was just like, you got to get this wing sauce off.
I wish I could have just gone back in time with like a professional photographer
just to snap the moment you realized you were wiping your hands
like wing sauce all around your mouth
all over your hands and you just have a condom in your hands
covered in barbecue sauce
if my parents walked up and saw that scene just no I swear
son you can do whatever you want
it's not the same as like
or as like embarrassing or weird
but there was do you guys
do either of you have a fear of spiders
I'm more of a roach I'm scared of roaches or is embarrassing or weird. But there was, do you guys, do either of you have a fear of spiders?
Oh, I'm more of a roach.
I'm scared of roaches.
Spiders don't really bother me. I'm scared of anything that can go from still
to scuttling in milliseconds.
So there, actually, funny thing is,
I'm not wearing a necklace right now,
is I talk about a story where at nighttime
when I'm laying in bed trying to fall asleep,
I'll play with the pendant of my necklace. And there was one night where I was going to talk about a story where at nighttime when I'm laying in bed, like trying to fall asleep, I'll like play with the pendant of my necklace.
And there was one night where I was like sitting there thinking about like something was going
on at school or something like that.
And I was like playing with my pendant.
And then I pulled on the pendant to like adjust the chain and the chain didn't move.
And then I touched my neck and realized I wasn't wearing a chain.
No, I was twiddling a spider.
I was totally not a spider.
I did that once. I was
sitting at a table eating a hot dog or something
and I was reading something
and I wasn't paying attention.
My arm was hanging down and touching the ground
and I was just playing with something.
Your arms can reach the ground when you're standing up.
I wasn't not standing up. You look like an orangutan.
I dragged my knuckles
as I walked. I was playing with
something and I didn't realize what it was
and it grabbed on to my hand
and I lifted my hand up
and it was just a cockroach
just grabbing onto my hand
I shrieked
did you do the typical Matt shriek
did you do that or did you do the
I just went
I scare Matt on
we talked about it two podcasts ago how you ran it how you like to
run into my room but i have to space it out me yeah i did that does that he runs into my room
i would do jump scares with amelia all the time i actually have a compilation of all the jump
scares that i did because she's so like she loves to play scary games but she just can't she's you
know like she's so jumpy yeah and so uh so we had this basically any time where she was focused on something else was perfect
opportunity for jump scares in the car, working out in her bed, especially in her bedroom.
Because like you.
She was like your Zen zone.
That's like you're comfortable there.
But she leaves the door open.
So it's like an open invitation for a jump scare.
That's true.
I mean, you're just.
If you leave the door open.
You're just asking.
Like a closed door means, you know, go away, asshole.
You know, some people would recognize that fact, Matt.
That the closed door means go away?
Oh, I sense a...
No, there's a story we told last podcast.
There's a story we told last podcast.
Two podcasts ago, I told a little story where I pulled a little prank on Ryan when his door was shut.
And he knew why the door was shut, but he told someone to rush into the room anyways.
With a camera. With a camera.
With a camera because they're like, hey, go scare Ryan.
So that was fun.
Yeah, go listen to episode one.
Yeah, it's exactly what you're thinking.
It's 100% exactly what you're thinking.
Oh, okay.
It was really funny.
It was funny, though.
It was funny.
And this is like my first week with Matt.
That was not the first week I knew you.
That was the first fucking time you visited.
Yes, it was.
That's the first time you visited.
Now I understand why you guys had a hard time at the beginning of your relationship, but
I'm glad that you guys made it through those hurdles.
It's like friendly bullying, I guess.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
It's like friendly joshing.
Just joshing.
But you didn't know me at all, so I'm just like, what is this guy doing?
That's also a guy thing, too.
I don't think...
I would play a joke or two, but I wouldn't do something along any of those lines.
You don't Snapchat your dick to your friends like we do?
Oh, well, I do that all the time.
I don't do that.
Not...
Just a...
No, I don't do that.
Dude, I...
Well, and also, too, I try not to snap my dick because I just don't want to intimidate
people.
That is true.
Yeah, definitely.
I have a topic about games.
Lay it on us, Ryan.
Lay it on us thick.
Matt has not been able to get into
a certain game for some reason for the longest
time, and I am...
I feel like you're tattling.
I don't understand how he's not
kind of gotten into it.
It's Zelda Breath of the Wild.
Like, I've put probably 200
plus hours into the game already. You have. I saw
on your little friends list thing, it said
200 hours. I'm at 300.
You're at 300? Mine says a few
minutes, which isn't true.
You said you couldn't get into it?
I don't...
Also, it didn't help that when it came out
was incredibly busy
time for me. I was so busy
at that time.
While all my friends were playing it and getting ahead,
I didn't have the time to devote
to that because I was also
Did you feel like if you weren't playing it at the same
time as them that you would somehow
miss out on the discovery?
Yeah so I think that's another reason I haven't gotten back into it
but I'm not good at
devoting myself to games
I'll start a game and I'll never finish it
I have a terrible habit of that
there's several games that I love that I have finished
but Breath of the Wild I think I'm also. I have a terrible habit of that. There's several games that I love that I have finished, but Breath of the Wild
I think I'm also like, I'm intimidated by huge
open world games that I know is
going to take hundreds of hours and I just get intimidated.
I just become enthralled.
It sucks me in and I'm
there. All I can think about
for a week or two is just,
well, I gotta get work done today so I
can play more Breath of the Wild.
Or you had your Switch on you at all times because you wanted to be able to play if you had any free time.
I have started bringing my Switch to the office so I could play Mario Kart and Zelda and Binding of Isaac and Kamiko and all those games.
Just so when stuff is exporting and stuff, I can just plop it down in front of me and play.
I really like the console.
People are giving it shit, though.
The Switch?
They're giving it shit because of like because it is small uh the only the only gripe that i have one is the availability not everybody can get one because it's really hard to find they're probably
doing that for the holiday season though don't you think um well it's also to uh nintendo doesn't
want to invest in uh you know a big release and having a bunch of systems that don't get picked
up because they're innovators.
They're testing the waters. They're
trying new things and different things.
So with innovating, you
can't bank on the fact that it's going to
annihilate the market.
Usually what they do is they plan
certain numbers and then
when it exceeds, then they start
banking them out, which is what they did with the Wii.
Because when the Wii was announced, everybody shat all over it.
They're like, motion controls, Wiimote, like I don't want to have to blah.
You know, like everybody gave it so much shit.
And now the Wii is what defined, you know, console and gaming and VR for the future.
Like Nintendo innovates gaming.
And so because of that, they have to bank on the fact that it may not do that well.
But when you think of, this is just a thought, when I think of VR and what it is today, then I go back to the Wii, it almost seems like the Wii is kind of like, compared to all those other things, it was like a toy you got in a McDonald's meal.
Oh, yeah.
Nowadays, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
But, I mean, like, computers, if you go back and look at, like, the first computers that were ever made, it's the same thing.
Oh, God.
I remember those good tube monitors.
Oh, gosh.
Now it's nothing but flat screen.
Yeah.
Nobody uses anything but.
When I see a tube thing, I'm like, what a waste of space.
I had a projector, like a big projector.
You know those things where it's like within the TV itself?
It had like this vinyl screen.
And on the inside, it projected the image. It was really cool. It had like this vinyl screen. And on the inside it projected
the image. It was really cool.
It was a big TV and on the bottom it had this
the speakers and
it had a speaker cover.
It was made out of wood.
I just made
a realization that TVs
or screens went from
you know like sticking outwards
like curved outwards to flat to now curved inwards.
Yeah.
What's the next one?
Just a hole in the screen?
No, you just plug directly into your brain.
Yeah.
It's going to be an inverted cone.
What is going to happen like in 20 years?
Like how are we going to consume material?
Because right now people use phones, iPads and flat screens.
I don't know if we're reaching like a.
How about 50 years?
50 years it's going to change. Definitely. I don't know when we're reaching like a – How about 50 years? 50 years it's going to change, definitely.
I don't know when we're going to move beyond screens.
I feel like it reaches like a plateauing point where it's just kind of like –
I feel like the last decade technology has completely –
like if you had a graph of the advances in technology,
I think the last 10 years have been like exponentially higher than the last 10 before that.
And then I think it's higher than the next 10 will be because I think it shot up and
then it's just kind of.
Well, I'm more like, yeah, the technology might change, but they're always enhancing
things because they want to make things more.
They want to make you more lazy.
They don't you don't want to put as much work into turning on the TV or switching through channels or watching what you want to watch.
So I'm wondering what innovations are going to occur within the next 50 years to deal with just to make everything easier, which is just going to essentially lead to a Wally-esque future.
I want to see what phones – compare the iPhone you have now, which essentially is like a computer.
Compare that to 10 years ago in 2007,
what cell phones were like then.
Or even what computers were like then.
Oh, yeah.
An iPhone's more powerful than a computer 10 years ago.
We have all of the knowledge that is
all knowledge available to us
on this. In your pocket.
Anywhere you go, because you can get the internet anywhere.
It's crazy. I wonder
when we're like 60 what phones
will be like or what our eyesight will be like they're gonna make glasses looking at screens
yeah no i think screens make your eyesight worse which happened to me because i didn't i always had
like perfect vision my whole life until i started editing as a full-time job oh yeah my i had to get
glasses because my my vision just kind of turned to shit from staring at screens all day. Also, too, you're aging.
My eyesight gets worse with aging
before I even looked at computer screens all day.
But then again, I was looking at TV screens
all day because I've been playing video games since I was
five years old.
Gotta get that LASIK surgery.
Well, actually, I can't get LASIK.
No, because I have a lazy eye.
Do you? Look at me.
I can control it.
Do you not see it? See, look at me.
I just see the back of your head. Okay, yeah.
I think, Matt, have I mentioned this before?
Whoa, that's
really cool. Like, when I look off into the
distance or when I'm just kind of like not focusing,
does one of my eyes just kind of divert?
It does. Like, slightly.
Like, you can't tell from a distance.
I wouldn't say. I don't know. I think it just goes down a little bit or something. Yeah, yeah. But it's You can't tell from a distance. I wouldn't say... I don't know.
I think it just goes down a little bit or something.
Yeah, yeah.
But it's not like a lazy eye.
No, it's just...
It's just like this out of focus, like you're uncalibrated.
Technically, that is considered a lazy eye.
Like how they draw lizards in cartoons with their eyes going in goofy ways.
I've seen it before, but then as soon as you come back to focus, it's gone.
Oh, yeah.
That's kind of how my eyes are.
I feel like everyone kind of does that to an extent when they just kind of lose focus.
Their eyes just kind of drift apart because you kind of go into this trance.
Yeah.
But not down.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't look at myself often and you just try to stare at my eyes.
But also, too, it depends on if someone's looking at you from a different angle.
Like sometimes when people take pictures from like a side angle, it'll look like they have lazy eyes when actually the distance between their eyes is exaggerated because you can't see the bridge of the nose.
What is a lazy eye is uh well mine is called what they call controllable extropia which is
where the muscles um you know uh your brain controls your eye muscles at the same time
which is how you know like it they have a focal point brings them together muscles work together
to make one image um i was born with a lazy eye but for some reason through sheer willpower
uh it corrected itself when i was about five years old so
ever since then I've been able to control it. I can
expand my peripheral vision so I can see
like way the fuck back here.
Like behind my ears. Oh yeah. Like a super
human. Okay wait can we test it out?
If you want to. What would be a good way to
test that? Could I write something on a sheet of paper
put it like. I can't read. No no no. You need both
of your eyes. How do I?
You can move something and see.
She can say when it disappears.
He's like, I'm ready for this.
I'm excited.
Okay, I'm going to.
Okay, I have a pen.
I just want to.
Okay, for me, I want to see.
I know what the pen looks like.
What are you doing?
Let's change it from a random person.
Like, how?
Like, when you move your hands to the side of your head, when can you stop seeing them?
Oh, okay.
I can't.
Okay. This is where I can't see them anymore. Like, should I just look ahead or stop seeing them? Oh, okay. I can't, okay.
This is where I can't see them anymore. Like, should I just look ahead
or should I try? No, you look directly ahead.
Straight ahead. This is your peripheral vision.
I can't, this is me.
It's gone right here. Okay. That's pretty good.
Okay. That's good.
I'm really, I'm. The viewers have no idea
how far we're talking. I know.
So this is like, I use this
in supermarkets to like broaden my peripheral vision.
I can see it.
What the fuck?
No, you can't.
Yes, I can.
Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on.
Hold on.
Tell me when it appears in your peripheral vision.
Now.
What?
Fuck that.
No fucking way.
How many degrees of vision is that?
You have a wide angle lens.
But you have to think about it.
The only time it's really practical is when I'm in a shopping aisle and I come to the
end of the aisle to see if anybody's coming and that's it.
Or in the woods when there are predators.
Or driving.
Peripheral vision is super.
When you're in the woods, you need to be looking where you're going, not what's around you.
I'll stop and maybe do that.
You can stop like a deer.
Your ears will flutter a little bit i'll just be i'll just be like like uh i'll be camping and i'll be
walking along and i hear like and then i'll just like eyes out i'll be like looking around people
like what the fuck is she was fine a second ago and then she stopped her eyes went all crazy and
now she looks weird you literally galloping away like a
doe
I just figured out you could
mount deer and stuff
and bears I tried
to but he ran away
you can mount bears?
actually it sucked because
I hated it
I was about to say the Yakuza but it's not what they're called
what's the clan in Breath of the Wild?
Oh, I know who you're talking about, the little red guys.
Yeah, them.
I was about to mount a bear.
One of them appeared, and so I had to fight him,
and then the bear started running away and shit.
Aw.
Pissed me off.
The Bokoblins?
No.
It's a different, it's like the-
I have not gotten that far in the game, so.
Okay.
Well, I mean, I don't want to-
They appear regardless.
No, I don't care about spoilers.
Oh, okay.
Because once you get to a certain point,
like once you've got so many hearts,
and if you get to a certain point in the game,
they'll just start appearing everywhere,
especially if you take out their boss.
And then they'll be like,
I must avenge him!
That whole boss battle?
Okay, spoiler alert,
skip to this time code.
If you don't...
What time code?
You find out in editing. What are you talking about?
What? I wanted to ask,
have you... Beat the boss?
Wait. I beat the game. Okay.
I was going to ask you about...
I don't know. Barry and them always say
everything's a spoiler in the game, so I'm always cautious
to drop something that I'm not sure
you know about. No, I'm 300. There's a certain horse that game so I'm always cautious to like drop something that I'm not sure you know about. Well Barry thinks everything is a spoiler.
No I'm 300. There's a certain horse that's like
super cool to me. Yeah. Yeah.
Fucking. Yeah. When I first saw it
and like. It was the one where you had to go to the statue right?
Mmhmm. Yep. Yep yep yep.
Okay. Alright. Alright.
Anyways. Welcome back everyone.
There was no spoiler in that. There was no need.
There's no time code that you needed to skip to.
We just we implied a thing and then he implied a thing, I implied a thing.
We 100% understood what was going on in the situation.
It's fine.
Everyone's healthy.
I did because I have not played that far in Breath of the Wild.
Are you going to, at some point, try and just play around?
He's too intimidated.
Eventually.
Eventually I will.
I think he's telling you that to make you happy, but I don't think he's actually going to do it.
Do you not like open world games? I do like open world games.
I don't know. Also,
I haven't played Skyrim and you were getting on me about that.
Take this into account. I had Breath of the
Wild for like three days before
I went to Japan for like two weeks.
So I missed the initial
hype train of it because I was in Japan.
But you don't need hype to
enjoy the game. Yeah, but I didn't get
to play it because I was in Japan. Also, too, need hype to enjoy the game. Yeah, no, but I didn't get to play it because I was in Japan.
Well, and also, too, I know that
open world games are really intimidating, and
spoilers are really intimidating, but I feel
that you're going to make Breath of the Wild
the game that you want it to be. It doesn't
necessarily... I didn't play it because I was
expecting it to be the same
playstyle as everyone. You literally
can go anywhere and do anything
at any point. you can be Ganon
straight out the freaking door if you want it
it's your own adventure there's no
path except for like the beginning you do like
the first kind of introduction shit but right
after that I've already done all that yeah
and and and honestly like the
the four
temples or the dungeons that
you have to do you don't have to do
them to beat the game it's nonlinear and that's what i like about it is the fact that the adventure i made may not be the same
as someone else's adventure i mean there are you know flagpole parts that you have to like actually
complete but other than that the most pleasure i got out of the game was not the dungeons was not
the boss fights it was actually the little things that I did when I was exploring. Like just stuff that you just happened upon.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Just like, oh, man, there's like scenario like Nintendo took so much time developing
this game that they created scenarios that only happen at certain points and certain
days at certain times.
And those little scenarios, those unique interactions where it's kind of like finding a freaking
needle in a haystack.
The chances of you being in that exact spot in this broad world at that exact time in order to see that cut scene happen, freaking A.
But when it happens, it's really worth it.
It's magic.
I will give it.
I'll pick it back up.
Just explore and run around.
I will.
That's all you do.
Just fart around.
I'm going to fart around tonight.
I'm going to lay in bed. I'm going to get my Switch out and I'm going to try it out. And then all you do. Just fart around. I'm going to fart around tonight. Just fart around. I'm going to lay in bed.
I'm going to get my Switch out and I'm going to try it out.
And then I'm going to fart.
And then I'm going to fart.
There's essentially like a whole mission where it's just effectively, I don't want to ruin
it for you, but it's just kind of, there's no fighting involved.
All it is is building.
Building.
Building.
Building.
That's all it is.
That sounds really fun.
Yeah.
I like building.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's like playing with dang Legos.
Matt, I can say the name.
My favorite place in the game is Tarrytown.
Tarrytown is the best.
That's the spot to be.
The best to buy, sell, interact.
Tarrytown?
Tarrytown.
Tarrytown.
Every NPC is Tarry Cruz.
That would be amazing.
Did I just spoil it?
Because you both got a look on your face like, shit, he just spoiled it. You you both got a look on your face like
shit he just spoiled it
you both just got this look on your face
Terry Crews he has been talking with a lot of game developers
recently
cause he built his own computer did you hear
oh yeah
I always knew Terry Crews as
everybody hates Chris
and now he's the guy that built his own
computer that's what he's the guy that built his own computer.
That's what he's advertised as.
That's what he loves
to talk about all the time
that I see on YouTube and stuff.
He's like,
Rocket League!
Well, I mean,
people enjoy watching
and hearing about Passion
and he was very passionate
about it.
Well, he was passionate
about it because he wanted
to connect with his son
which is really cool.
Yeah.
That's the reason
because he felt like
he was drifting apart
from his son.
So he turned his son
into a computer.
Yep. Classic Terry Crews. That's the reason, because he felt like he was drifting apart from his son. Good for him. So he turned his son into a computer. Yep.
Classic Terry Crews.
That's classic.
He did that on Everybody Hates Chris, too.
It's like a recurring theme.
Created Hal.
God, I fucking love that show.
Everybody Hates Chris?
I was so sad when they canceled it.
Did you ever watch that show, Pam?
You didn't watch Everybody Hates Chris?
Did you at least watch Malcolm in the Middle?
Yeah, a little bit.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Breaking Bad?
It's not... Damn! Come on, sorry, sorry. Breaking Bad? It's not.
Damn, you missed out on me. What do you watch? What TV shows do you watch? Okay, okay, okay. We're mad right now. No, no, no, I'm sorry. This is a heated debate. I know it's a heated debate,
and this is something that not a lot of people know about me, is I have an OCD for control.
And so control of like my mental state state which is not like control of everything no
no no no i don't need to control my outside i just need to be able to be grounded within myself
okay so uh this is something that i got from my dad and i and i say i got it from my dad because
i can't control it and so the only way i can control it is by not doing it when there's a tv
on around me i cannot pay attention to anything other than what's on
the fucking tv really i hate that about myself so if someone like um if someone's watching
infomercials i will sit there and watch infomercials for hours and it's because i just
there's a magnet that draws my eyes to the tv and so ever since i was a very little girl i've had an
aversion to watching tv i'll sit down and and be like, okay, tonight I'm going to watch Last Week Tonight because there was an episode up.
But I can watch that in my own time.
I like having stuff on in the background.
I can't do that.
I absolutely cannot do that.
You have to pay attention.
You're 100% focused on what's on the screen.
You can't have anything on in the background.
And it makes me feel horrible because a lot of the time you know like parties
or you know social functions people just have like a tv on and people are like tvs well uh no
they're no social interaction they'll have they'll have like background noise and my roommate justin
used to have a tv on at all times he's your roommate with justin long yeah it's so fucking
cool he's he's cool guy sorry to interrupt he interrupt. He would have a TV on in the background
and I don't actually, it didn't
Justin Long. People don't know me on the podcast.
They were going to be like, no fucking way!
He actually moved with me from Kansas, but he used
to have the TV on all the time and I had to be like
Justin, I need you to watch TV
when I'm in bed or sitting down with you
or not nearby you because I
can't, I will watch a TV for
I just can't and I won't hear what
you're saying at all like you could be sitting right
next to me talking to my face if I'm
watching a TV I won't hear you like
and I hate it it's the
one thing about myself that I'm like
but that means when you're when you're playing a game
or when you're when you're watching
a movie you're in control of the story
movie is very much like stop, start.
Like you sit down and do those things.
But TV shows tend to go a lot longer
and it's harder for me to say no to like,
oh, there's only seven seasons of this show.
I'll just watch all of them.
I guess what I was like getting at
was like with the bright side of that,
you can probably say that's not how it works.
But when you're watching a movie or a video game, I feel like you can pay a lot more attention i probably miss a lot of things
because i'm just like oh blah blah blah well that's why like i i i cultivate obscure knowledge
about b and c list actors where i'll be like you know who's your favorite c list actor uh favorite
c list actor is probably oh are we your favorite D-list YouTube celebrities?
No! Don't do that.
We're not?
Don't classify yourself as
D-list. Don't self-deprecate. You guys are
like A-list. Top notch.
Oh, thank you.
Top notch.
Damn! We're M-list.
Where are you going?
Down the alphabet.
I like how you wanted to slowly progress down the alphabet
instead of just going straight to Z.
How many more lists are there?
Where are we going?
Continue what you were saying.
No, Matt, I'm more enthralled by the letters that you're pronouncing.
I can say Q.
Whoa!
S.
T.
Pam, did you hear that shit?
His pronunciation is pretty spot on.
Now, if he could fucking say that shit in order.
Have you guys seen the new Frozen Lego show?
Frozen is having a TV show.
They have a Lego TV show.
Frozen, wait, Frozen Lego.
Yeah, Frozen Lego TV show.
I thought they really were reaching for, like,
Lego Batman.
No, they have Lego Frozen.
Huge thing.
Soon they're going to have Lego Super Mega.
And I don't see why people are marveling at the Lego thing.
The Lego thing has existed for a while.
Lego has been a TV show, games, all kinds of-
Yes, but now it is 100%.
It's at its peak, you would say.
Yeah.
It's super mainstream now.
Okay.
Yeah.
I see.
But not that it's not cool.
What I'm saying is, I watched the anime, the Batman Lego movie.
I thought it had a joke in there.
I laughed my ass off at one.
Have you seen it?
Yeah.
The part I laughed at was when they were naming like the C4 bomb, the bomb, the bomb, the
bomb.
And all of a sudden it goes, and two best friends.
I don't know.
That was just unexpected.
Well, you just spoiled the whole damn movie for me, Ryan.
You were never going to see a Lego movie.
I was going to see it tonight.
No, you fucking weren't. Yes, I was, Ryan. No, you weren't. Oh Lego movie. I was going to see it tonight. No, you fucking weren't.
Yes, I was, Ryan.
No, you weren't.
I've been playing it my whole day around it, and now it's ruined.
That reminds me.
I want to go see Guardians Volume 2 again.
Have you not seen it?
Oh, you haven't yet.
I want to see it again.
I haven't seen the first one.
He doesn't watch superhero movies.
This isn't a superhero movie, though.
He doesn't watch Marvel movies.
I've seen Marvel movies.
But it's just not your type of...
He's seen them, but he doesn't watch them.
Yes, exactly.
I'm not big into...
He's smarter than your average person,
so he stays away from all that dumb people.
You know what?
You can take all that shit from Ryan,
and I say you do you.
If you don't like watching something, don't do it.
Don't let people give you shit
about not doing what you don't want to do.
Just never been into superhero movies.
Good for you. What are you into if you never been into superhero movies. Good for you.
What are you into if you're not into superhero movies?
Japanese stuff.
Yes.
I like weeb stuff.
I like comedy.
I like, I don't know.
I guess with movies for me, it's kind of like a, just like whatever.
It's like an each to its own type of thing.
I go see everything because I have to give everything like a, like I can't trash on something unless I've seen it or else I feel like I'm just being an asshole.
So like if something's, if people are like, oh, this movie was horrible.
Like the Angry Birds movie, you guys were saying that it was going to be bad and I was dreading it and I watched it and it wasn't awful.
I love it.
I wouldn't say I loved it.
Did you know that Ian's in it?
Yeah, he is.
I love that movie. I really enjoy it.
Okay, I actually went into that thing and I'm like, man, I'm gonna hate
this. And I watched it and I was like,
oh my god, I loved that. Was that your favorite
animated film? Bill Hader did a really good job
at voice acting. He shook his head yes. Huh?
I did not shake my head yes. I said it wasn't my favorite
animated film, but it was pretty good. Top three?
Favorite animated film?
Oh, it used to be Over the Hedge, but I haven't
seen that in like seven years, so I don't know if that still stands tall. I don't know what my favorite animated film? Oh, it used to be Over the Hedge, but I haven't seen that in like seven years, so I don't
know if that still stands tall.
I don't know what my favorite animated film is.
It can be 2D.
Mine's How to Train Your Dragon.
That's a good one.
I thought two was better than one.
Really?
I really liked it.
I really liked the story in two and the emotional kind of weight it had.
Yeah, and I would get why that would be better, but I liked, honestly, 100% the that I liked How to Train Your Dragon is because Toothless reminds me of my cat, Moose.
Yeah.
And there was more about, I almost said Moose.
It was more about Moose.
It was more about Toothless in one than it was about Toothless in two.
Well, I read that actually in How to Train Your Dragon, they based his mannerisms on cats.
They did.
I'm dead serious.
Have you not seen?
I watch that every day. Okay, good. Every day. Have you not seen? Watch that every day.
Okay, good.
Every day.
You watch How to Train Your Dragon
every day.
Every day.
When I lived in my townhouse
in Kansas,
I watched it every day.
Sounds like a fun life.
I waited a long time
to watch it
because I was like
not sure at first
because they got the,
I don't know,
it just threw me off
just the voice acting
in the trailers.
Oh, yeah.
I was like,
what is this?
And then I saw it
and it was really good.
I watched it twice in a row one day
and I enjoyed it.
I just didn't want to watch it back to back
because at the time, I think I was babysitting
my neighbor's kid and they watched it.
I was like, we want to watch it again.
You were with kids. I was going to be either that
or you were with me. No, I was with kids.
Same thing. Same thing. I'm a child.
I didn't mean it, Pam. No, it's okay.
But I had to watch it back to back and I was like
this is a... I like the movie.
I just don't want to watch it twice in a row
and then I watched it twice in a row. Very fun.
Very fun experience. I feel like
watching a movie twice in a row can actually
make... I have never had a desire
to watch it again after that. And I think it might be
because I just watched it twice in a row in one sitting.
So my brain was like, I'm done with this. There are these people, I can't even remember what movie it was but I just... that. And I think it might be because I just watched it twice in a row in one sitting. So my brain was like, I'm done with this.
There are these people, I can't even remember what movie it was, but I just, it was, I think
it was kind of like an Adam Sandler-y type movie.
Not necessarily an Adam Sandler movie, but one of those feels like, not a good movie,
but a movie where like people watched it.
Yeah.
And these guys, they had an experiment where they, I think they watched it every day for like
a year or something like that.
Oh God.
And so they, they said that they would just, by like the hundredth or so time of watching
it, it was like this very surreal experience.
Like they would, they knew everything that was going on.
It was almost like just kind of being on a, not a drug, but it was just, as I said, it
was a surreal experience and their brain was just like
they felt it was it was like a form of torture essentially wow just watching the same imagine
that watching the same movie every day for about a year or so so i i watched how to train your
dragon once a day for for a while it wasn't a year but i didn't subject anybody else to it it was just
me by myself my dad used to watch napoleon dynamite it's a good movie i
love it it's a good every day for over a year are you tired i'm not even kidding are you tired of
pedro and he still quotes it all the time my dad has a little clicker that has napoleon dynamite
i had it too it had like six little buttons on it and it does different quotes oh my dad
seriously loves that movie so much whenever every every time it was time for dinner, my dad would be like,
Tina, come get some ham.
And I'm like, what?
My uncle did that with Borat.
Every time he came to a family thing, he's like, very nice.
He's like all the time.
You have an uncle that looks like Borat.
Is it him?
That's him.
Is it really the uncle that looks like Borat?
Yeah.
That's great.
He shaved his mustache so he doesn't look like Borat anymore.
Oh, no.
But he's a really cool guy.
Isn't he actually Middle Eastern, though?
My family is.
So it's just like having a real-life Borat in your family.
That's awesome.
My family's Dutch and Middle Eastern, and then you got my whitey of a dad.
Your white little dad ruining the...
Click, click, click.

Because like I said before, I have my fingers in a lot of different projects where they're
like, where's your home at?
And I'm like, okay, this is where my stuff is.
I feel like I have to be better
at doing that,
but we don't really go
on other people's channels that much.
But you guys are going to come
on Draw Some Gaming, right?
Yes, yes.
Yes, yeah.
Okay.
Have a call.
Yeah.
Thank you for coming on the podcast.
I had a really good time.
Thanks for teaching us about periods.
Yeah.
I had no idea.
If you guys have any questions,
you got a comfortable place
to come talk to a girl
who will not judge you.
As soon as I get my first period,
I'll give you a call.
Okay.
You can help me out with that drawer. I'll hook you up
with a drawer. Thank you. And thanks for being a
girl. Yeah, I do what I can.
Bye! Bye!
I dropped my phone. Love you, bye!
