Yeah, we knew that you guys would be pissed that we're not on the set this week, so we got a cat. Everyone loves cats.
I love cats.
It's like Grumpy cat, you know, dude, uh, dude, uh, wait, hold up
Hold up
da da da da da da
That's doopy that's uh
Dude keyboard cat it's it's this is gonna sound really fucking
This is gonna age me but I don't why, but the original keyboard cat video came up
in like a recommended or something, and I watched it,
and I was just sitting there watching it,
I was like becoming like overly sentimental.
I didn't like cry or nothing, but I was like,
whatever the step is before you shed tears,
you're just kinda like, so much time has passed,
and this used to be the video that entertains
that this used to be the type of shit that entertains people.
I love the idea of you sitting there on your couch like late at night.
Like in the dark like at 2am.
Just actually like tears begin to well.
I got that recently for something really old too.
It was, oh dude it was an old uh it was I just watched the
the cut scene for uh I wonder what's for dinner. Really? I didn't cry or anything but no. Where
did Ryan's camera go? I don't know. Oh my god Ryan's camera is gone. Ladies and gentlemen this is bad
news. I'm gonna say that sucks I'm guessing is that I don't think it's doing the overheating.
Oh, it's back.
It's back.
It's plugged into power.
Oh, he's gone again.
Matthew, you might hate this.
What's going on?
We might have to let it charge for a bit, I guess, because if it's near battery,
it doesn't have enough to.
Are you serious?
Yeah, I don't it sucks. It's plugged into a power source. Well on the camera. It shows me
it's plugged into a power source like it shows the in power and
Then it like I'm gonna be back, but then it's gonna turn right back off. Okay. Well ladies and gentlemen
We'll be right back and when we're back, we'll explain why we're not on the set for this episode. So, Bazinga. My camera's working again. Bring out the cat.
We got Laycat. Check it out. Yeah, we were just talking about getting sentimental over keyboard
cat, old internet memes, like dinner.
What was it?
I wonder what's for dinner.
Yeah, I wonder what's for dinner.
I love how my mind consolidated it into just dinner.
But I guess, you know.
That's essentially what it is.
And we let Lake Camera charge,
and you're probably wondering
Guys, why aren't you on the uh, the beautiful set that you you built with your with your little hands together?
You want to tell him that you want to it's time to be open and honest, you know, yeah, uh guys I uh
I I traveled abroad and I was in Japan for a week and I just got back this last Sunday and when I got back I noticed some sniffles and some snuff snuffles and uh I took a uh a test
And uh
Turns out that
I am uh positive
For for covid yes. Yeah for for covid, uh to clarify I have at the time of recording this, uh
I I have covid 19 and it's brutalizing you this run around dude
It is killing me. I feel like absolute dog shit right now, but I I can't risk giving it to my my boy ryan
So that is why we're doing it like this. You could like
But and I did. Uh, I actually I met up with him to give him footage and I didn't disclose that I had COVID to
him.
And actually, I had a coughing fit, but I just I played it off as like some dust in
my throat.
Like it was a joke.
Like, yeah, I was like, you know, do you have any water?
You know, classic.
Yeah.
And he did, luckily.
And he lent me his water bottle,
which was very nice of him. But yeah, this is the first episode of Super Mega Show that we're doing
remote. This is it's bringing back memories to 2020, baby. To when COVID hit. Yeah. Because
it's been the only thing to separate the the super mega bros
Yeah brothers the only thing that's ever come between the the super mega brothers
besides a woman and Matt and I don't like the
We don't not not like
we're not anti-vax, but we're but we're
we're
Vax. But we're anti-faith in government, I guess is a better term. Yeah.
So, you know, we kind of get it from time to time and this seems to be a worse time than usual.
But actually, I believe that I had the Rona exactly three years ago on this date.
Back when we were, remember like, because it was, I had to travel like an hour or so
out of the way to get a vaccination the first go around or something.
Yeah, you and I drove up to like, California because the vaccine was not available yet to
the general public. It was only available to like
old geezers and people with
pre-existing conditions.
But those people are kind of useless in my mind. So
people are kind of useless in my mind. So, you know, I think that we should be at the top of the list, YouTubers, because what we're doing is a public service. But I had found out that,
I just saw people talking online saying that in central California, they have an excess of the
vaccine because all of these old people don't want to take it because they're anti-vaxx. So a lot of it was going to waste. Yeah, because
they have to throw it out at the end of the day because I guess it goes bad or something. So
apparently if you drove up, they would just give it to you. So we did. We took a little road trip.
We drove like three hours and got the jab. And then I got COVID shortly after. But I was asymptomatic when I had
it the first time. So wait, you took the vaccine and then you got sick with COVID? Yeah.
But you see my body was prepared to fight the virus.
So I was very asymptomatic.
Didn't bother me at all.
I love that.
You know, I had it.
COVID didn't bother me.
That sounds like almost like a Mark Wahlberg.
If I was there, things would have been different.
Yeah, you know, I got the got the covid in.
I didn't give an F.
That that's almost like something where I feel like if a president
at a time like got covid and they went, it's not a big deal.
It's like, OK, calm down.
Like there are people dying.
Well, it's not a big deal.
I have it right now.
And I mean, look at me.
I'm podcasting.
It's just like the common cold now.
It's ingrained into society.
Yeah, it is the common cold.
You know, it's honestly no worse.
And I feel just as good as I do on an average day.
Matt, is that a camo hat?
No. Oh, okay. Nevermind. But, is that a camo hat? No. Oh, okay, nevermind.
But you know I'm wearing a camo hat. I am. I was seeing if we were matching. The splotchiness from the
lighting made me to believe that. No, it's like a faded denim, but it's like black. It's like gray
denim. I really like it. Okay. I got this from a brand called called X girl. You look exquisite in that beautiful denim hat, dude
You look exquisite in that camo hat. You know, it's all thanks to wali. Well, it's waleed's hat
Well not not like waleed's hat. It's what it's a hat that
Waleed gave to both of us. I like uh, I like imagining it is waleed's hat
I like imagining it is Waleed's hat. I'm wearing Waleed's hoodie today.
But he doesn't have a brand.
He just puts his name on all of his own clothing.
So that is just his hat.
And there's only one of them and you've borrowed it.
But you know whose it is.
But I let the Internet know that I had COVID reluctantly.
I let the internet know that I had COVID reluctantly. And I saw a lot of haters and shitters saying,
how many times have you had COVID?
Two, this is the second time I've had COVID.
I saw a lot of people saying, like, Jesus, again?
I only had it once.
This is the second time.
And you know what?
I will say two times in an over like a four
year span. Not bad. Yeah, not bad. What are you at? What's your score, Ryan? I think it's
either one or two. I think I'm around the same thing. I think you're one, right?
I think the only time, I would to just be if there's some other time
I'm just misremembering and I was asymptomatic and didn't I don't know.
But for sure one time and that's when I just had to hunker down with some Buccaroonies
in South Carolina. Well, I guess money and friends.
Right, right.
In South Carolina and hunkered down
because we had all tested positive.
And so-
Oh, that's right, yeah.
We couldn't be traveling and shit.
But you had friends to quarantine with.
To game with, to have fond memories and meals with.
That's when I started actually getting into board games.
I feel.
Oh really?
Yeah, because it was just, we were just essentially locked
in our own personal quarantine.
And we just had oodles and oodles of time
to play a bunch of different board games.
And that's where I was like, I went to Amazon, I'm like, I'm going to buy a few of these.
And then now my collection's grown since then.
It's big, man.
You should come over for some game, for some gaming, for some game night.
Can I come over right now?
Not tonight, not until you're all good.
I feel fine.
No, you feel fine. Well, when you woke up this morning, did you still not until you're you're you're all good. I'm I feel fine. No, you feel fun. Well you
When you woke up this morning, did you steal like do you feel a little bit better than you did yesterday?
Because yesterday you told me you feel like absolute hell. I was today the same. Yeah, I feel like absolute dogshit
Nothing has gotten better. The only
only difference is
I've had some caffeine so I can kind of like push through.
But I don't know what's up. It's like this new strain, the XEC strain.
Almost XQC. I did my research.
Your favorite streamer.
I know. And I was a little sad you know didn't get the strain when it was
Cycled through the letters to be XQC. Yeah
But it uh, it's fucking killing me dude. I it's
like the
All I've done is sleep since I got back and tested positive. I have been in bed like
I got back and tested positive. I have been in bed just sleeping.
Not even just laying there on my phone or playing video games.
Just sound asleep.
Are you making sure you're eating some soups or sandwiches or something?
So your body can at least has something?
Oh, I've been hungry.
I got up and had three bowls of raisin bran. Three bowls of Oreos. Just like crumbled them up and I mixed them with some water and
ate the paste. But yeah, dude, it's killing me. And the the worst symptom is like, for
me, I don't know if other people are experiencing this, but it's like, just this
dizziness. I'm just like, it's like my head is in this fog
and it's like I'm detached from reality
and I'm just so out of it and disoriented.
I'm sure the fans feel the same way,
but we're just gonna need you to snap back to reality.
Oh, there goes Rabbit.
Come on, Eminem reference?
No, I get it. I get it. I got it.
All right, you set it up.
I'm just not as versed in Eminem as you are, my friend.
So I can't go on reciting Eminem in all of his lyrics.
I was hoping you could because I actually don't know what comes after that.
So I was hoping you'd be able to-
So you left it up to the guy who doesn't- who isn't even-
You're his biggest stan, dude So you left it up to the guy who doesn't, who isn't even, you're his biggest stan dude. You're essentially that, you're essentially
that song stan that he made. You're that, you're that like, you're that guy. I'm Stan. You're that,
you're that, you got that stan in you. I am Stan. That is really funny that Stan, the way that word,
like what it means on Twitter for like K-pop fans and stuff,
literally comes from an Eminem song. Was that where it originated or was it popularized
through the song and it was already just kind of... That's where it comes from. That's awesome.
And if I'm wrong, then I just said that with my chest chest with confidence. Because I always thought it's like, I stan you.
It's like, I stand up for you.
I don't know.
Like, it's like, I thought it was like very basic and simple.
But if Eminem is the origin.
Yep.
Early 21st century with allusion to the 2000 song
Stan by the American rapper Eminem about an obsessed fan.
So. But now it has a positive connotation.
You know, they took it back.
They did.
They've reclaimed the word and we're so proud of them.
And speaking of reclaiming things,
I feel like we've talked about this several times and every single time I've been shocked
and I feel like it keeps getting wiped from my memory.
We've 100% talked about there being Passion of the Christ 2.
Yes.
Right?
Okay.
Yeah.
And it starts filming like next year.
Yeah.
Okay.
I just saw a headline that said that Jim Kavaz... how do you say that guy's name?
I have no clue. But Mel Gibson, is Mel Gibson with the movie still?
Is he still like director, producer guy?
Well, let's see. It starts filming in early 2025.
The same actor will return as Jesus.
Okay, good. We don't need a recast. He was the perfect Jesus.
Him and Willem Dafoe were top Jesus tier, you know. I'm looking on Twitter and I'm looking at the
trend right now for Passion of the Christ 2 and the top account it's suggesting as relevant users
is Mel Gibson News. So I'm looking at this one. Hollywood veteran with a
passion for the epic and the untold. Always up for a challenge. On and offset
fan account. Is this a Mel Gibson fan account? It's a Mel Gibson Stan account.
What is... I think... hold up. See we have our computers here. Yeah, we can do some computering in this episode.
I suggest everyone follow Mel Gibson New.
There's no S at the end, but it's a Mel Gibson Stan account.
And it's, I'm gonna go ahead and give it a follow.
I think this one's gonna be, from what I've read about about it before he's wanting this one to be more like cerebral. Like it's like Jesus in
hell being it's like him versus Satan I really don't know. In a rock-off? I wish I
would hope so. Well I'm genuinely confused because I still haven't seen
the first Passion of the Christ I know know what it's about. I know
Yeah, it's just the story of the Christ the crucifixion and the resurrection. Yeah
So what's the second one about then because the first movie kind of wrapped the whole story up
I thought I think Christ goes to hell to fight Satan
I'm let hold up hold up Passion of the Christ to Christ goes to hell to fight Satan. I'm, hold up, hold up. Passion of the Christ 2, Christ goes
to hell. Let me see. Can he fight Satan in a rock-off with his electric guitar? Okay,
ready? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Passion of the Christ 2 is a sequel, and I just looked this up on
Bing by the way, so. Thank you, you Binged it. Passion of the Christ 2 is a sequel to
the 2004 movie Passion of the Christ. The plot of the sequel will follow Jesus Christ's
descent into hell and the other worldly battles he faced
following his crucifixion and leading to his resurrection.
The sequel was being planned for a decade
with Mel Gibson brainstorming
with Braveheart screenwriter Randall Wallace.
Another source suggests that the sequel will focus
on events that occurred three days
between the crucifixion and resurrection
when Jesus Christ ascended to Abraham's bosom to preach
and resurrect Old Testament sades.
Is it bosom?
I think.
Wait,
Abraham's what?
No,
what is that?
The bosom of Abraham? What is this? No, I'm looking it up too on Wikipedia? The bosom of Abraham?
What is this? No, I'm looking it up too on Wikipedia.
The bosom of Abraham refers to the place of comfort
and the biblical shoal or Hades in the Greek septu...
Something, something with a righteous dead await judgment day.
I was like, maybe that's a lost in translation.
That's a title like the bosom.
You know, it's I think it is bosom. Bossom Abraham the bosom of Abraham Abraham yeah so Jesus Christ needed Abraham's bosom. The bosom of Abraham.
The bussy of Abraham. Look at how much fur has collected on this shit. Same I need to
I got I got some fuzzies all over my mic
Damn, dude. Is there did someone made a tool to easily remove mic fuzzies? Would that just be like a
Probably just a lint roller. But yeah, I said about yeah written a lint roller because they make tiny ones like little travel-sized ones, dude
I have some fuzzies all over this shit as well. I didn't even realize. Now I'm kind of embarrassed.
Here we are talking about Abraham's bussy and I'm talking into a microphone that's just
covered in tiny little hairs.
Wait, where did these come from?
Hold on.
I want to see if he's, if the man himself is, he, it says he is set and it's not called
the passion of the Christ too, unfortunately.
What? It is called the passion of the Christ 2, unfortunately.
What?
It is called The Passion of the Christ Resurrection.
Oh, I got it.
Of course.
But apparently he's directing a lethal weapon five.
Gibson?
Yeah, that's in development.
And then I love that there's an upcoming movie apparently coming out this year
called Flight Risk that's in post-production.
Flight Risk. I'm gonna take a guess on what Flight Risk is about.
We'll see.
Okay, Flight Risk, I'm guessing is...
It's an action movie, of course.
Okay.
And I'm guessing it has to do with a criminal who is uh
he's been detained. Okay, so maybe he's like awaiting sentencing. Oh my god, it's this movie,
dude. Have you seen the trailer to this? Is he on a plane? Dude, it's dude you have to see the
trailer. I didn't know it was this movie. I just looked it up and saw it.
It's a Mark Wahlberg movie.
Dude, I was literally going to say Mark Wahlberg.
It's that Mark Wahlberg.
Have you not seen the trailer where it's Mark Wahlberg and his characters...
Not his character, I guess, for the character.
He has a bald cap on.
No, I have not seen the trailer for this.
Dude, you...
Here.
Here's what we'll do.
We'll take a quick little commercial break and when we're back I will give my thoughts
on the trailer.
Let's watch it at the same time.
Let's do it. Ladies and gentlemen, we're back from that commercial break.
Having freshly watched the Mel Gibson directed Flight Risk starring Tofer Grace, Mark Wahlberg
and Michelle Dockery.
But the spotlights on Marky Mark here.
100%.
My first takeaway was that I was shocked when I ended my when I when I closed from full screen and saw that it was only two and a half minutes because I was thinking I was like damn this is a long trailer. Alas it wasn't. Every single action like take in that trailer looked as
if it was like a practice choreography take where it's like all right let's just set this
one up so it's gonna you're gonna do it like this, okay? And then they just use those takes. Yeah, well, I mean, the biggest item here,
what do you think of Mark Wahlberg's bald cap?
That was a pretty shocking reveal.
Doesn't it just look like it's almost like earlier
in the movie they don't tell us,
but they like super glue the hat onto his head or something?
And then when she rips off the hat it rips off his hair.
That's kind of what it looks like.
He doesn't look like a character.
He doesn't look like a guy with a haircut.
It looks like a guy where something happened to his hair.
I genuinely would have a lot of respect for the movie if that was the plot.
He's not actually bald but they super glued the hat to his head and when she
rips it off it rips his hair clean off and then that's that's like actually canon. It looks like
my two lovely uncles. I know. It's kind of like the same caliber as that but my two lovely uncles
actually somehow looked more real. Even though you could still see my hairline, it was very
obvious. We should have used like an actual like razor razor instead of an electric one.
Yeah. No, we shouldn't have actually though, because I feel like the fact that you could see
your hairline still made it good. It kind of, you know, we were, you know, we weren't,
we were only millionaires back then. We weren't billionaires.
So like we were still working with, we were still working with the basics.
Right.
Sorry, that.
Did you have any avocados, some tomatoes?
No, that trailer just got me a little emotional.
No, I get it.
It's Mel Gibson, your favorite director.
Yeah.
Did you see Hacksaw Ridge?
Uh, no, but I heard it was not bad. It's also directed by Mel Gibson starring Andrew Garfield, your favorite Spider-Man.
I know, I know, and my favorite Martian as well. And hey dude, we got to see Andrew Garfield live on Jimmy Kimmel. That's right. Him and who was the other guy?
Ethan Hawke? Yeah, I think so but like I remember mostly Andrew Garfield because
he was Spider-Man. Mm-hmm. But it was kind of awkward. It was a little awkward and I feel
like when you're watching it on TV they they, you know, there's a, they still have music in studio when you're watching it, but it's not, it's, you're in a bigger room, you see the, where the set begins and ends, the magic is kind of take, so you are like, there, you are truly seeing like, oh, this is just like a product. It feels weird to be, to like see it firsthand.
Some people it's exciting and it is exciting,
but like I think it's exciting for that particular
behind the scenes experience.
It was cool.
I, it like, it was, it was really cool getting to like
actually see a late night talk show live
and see all the cameras and like, it's a tight.
Dude, that was, that that was that was number one
i've seen three live i've seen kimmel i've seen uh conan and i've seen mar and i'll tell you mar
every single time top of the charts yeah he fantastic. I'm assuming your favorite was Conan, maybe. Yeah, Conan. Conan was like the legitimate best.
Don't let Jimmy Kimmel see this.
You know, one day you're going to be on Jimmy Kimmel live.
He's going to pull up this clip and embarrass you in front of a live studio audience.
He wouldn't do that.
And he's not going to put the he's he's always going to make sure that
they don't put the applause light on
for you.
Yeah. You do a joke or anything.
It's good. It's.
Dude, I wish that if
I worked at like a late night talk
show thing like that and my job
was controlling the applause light
or like the the laugh light,
just the light dude that controls those
and there was a guest I didn't like I would just because you know the audience is at the
behest of those lights so I would just click it when I'm not supposed to I would I would
purposely not hit it I feel like you could you could actually I don't know do you do you feel
like a lot of the audience isn't actually choosing to laugh when they want to laugh. They're waiting for that.
They're waiting for the glowing red light to tell them.
Isn't it?
It is more so like it is set up like that.
They do kind of I don't know if they tell you directly.
I can't remember because it's you know it.
Oh, they say it wasn't yesterday.
They definitely say to laugh when it comes on.
But I think there's also like a when the lights not on, do not interrupt the show or else we will put you out.
Yeah, they have a guy come put you in a show call.
Take you out back.
No, we'll escort you out of the building.
I just remember watch Jimmy Kimmel live.
Yeah, you can watch it live when it airs on TV later, but it's not really live.
I just remember they have like the guy come out and hype everyone up before Mr. Kimmel himself
comes out. Let's do the wave. Come on. And everyone gets all excited and then they show the light,
come on. And they're like, now when that's on, you laugh. Even when it's something not particularly like let's you know just like go up you know the the louder you are the better they're gonna perform.
Yeah exactly. You know stuff like that. You know I can't. Reminds me of live
shows when we go out and like it was rarely but we'd go out and there was
like always some with different crowds and different audiences there was like a different like there was a different
energy some would be you know loud and like oh my god yeah and we're like whoa
big energy and other times it felt like maybe it was the venue maybe certain
venues it was set up to be more of like a like a like an intimate we're here
recording a podcast and y'all just get to watch and then it felt like
that was the setup and then when we come out with the other live show like energy it's almost like,
oh this is people are sitting down, people are eating food. Yeah. I can't remember what that one
venue was but you know exactly which one I'm talking about. Ryan's camera died guys.
It says my battery exhausted, but that can't be true.
There's no way.
Are you talking...
Luke, just put a picture of Ryan from Google in his spot in the meantime.
I think it's all working again.
Maybe it's a bad brick.
Maybe the brick's voltage wasn't high enough
to support this camera.
Dude, I sometimes, you know, life gives you a bad brick,
but what do you do?
You find a better brick.
Exactly.
The age old saying.
You were talking about live shows
and different crowds energies,
and 100% it's so weird because you can have like the exact same show but depending
on the crowds energy it can feel completely different and you and I did a ton of live shows
back in 20 between like 2017 and 2019 up until COVID hit and I just remember that like sometimes one crowd would just like be insane.
And right off the bat, because their energy was like so up here,
it like influenced the energy of the whole show.
And then other ones, everyone's more kind of like subdued and quiet.
And it, there's like a weird synergy at play that's like unspoken. everyone's more kind of like subdued and quiet and it it
there's like a weird synergy at play that's like unspoken. But I've noticed it with live shows.
Same with doing music.
What were you were saying?
One specific show.
I don't know. It was like I remember because like most of the venues,
you know, people, it was that we came out and it wasn't that like every, I think,
I really can't remember the name of the venue. It's just, I believe they were serving food as well.
Like it was like a dinner place. So it was, it felt like we were kind of like a side.
We were like put on the side and we weren't aware that it was like that type of venue.
Otherwise I feel like, because we were just kind of like because our show was,
you know, a little bit. I think it was this loud like the city winery in Boston or something or
D.C. And it was it was a cool venue. It was just like we were expecting. I don't know. That was
like that was like a like a fine, almost like a fine dining experience where there's like a jazz band would play,
but instead of a jazz band, it was just super mega. So it was a good crowd still though. They
were great. Then there was that other venue where the venue didn't provide chairs and so everyone
was standing as if it's like a musical concert. A musical concert.
I remember coming out on stage, coming out from backstage.
And just everyone was just standing.
And that was a packed venue too.
That was in Nashville.
And I think they actually oversold that one a little bit.
And everyone was fucking shoulder to shoulder
and standing and just staring.
And I remember that was, that got my nerves up a little bit
because I was-
Because everyone's already like, okay, I'm standing now.
And then the show's length, it's like,
they're standing for like an hour, hour and a half.
I think our show was like an hour and a half-ish.
Yeah, and it just put the pressure on because it's like
Okay, well, I'm standing so this better be worth standing for I know and I mean
You know in actuality, I don't know if it's a show worth standing for but it's definitely a show worth sitting down and enjoying
Like a like a drink and some popcorn. Yeah, but standing
I don't know if you want to put your knees through all that
No, that's that's a lot of strenuous stress on the knees on the ankles
Especially with how much you're gonna be laughing
You know with with more laughter puts more more strain on the lower back on the hips and because our our audience is primarily
in their late 50s to early 60s, you know, that's tough.
That's tough on that.
But...
Sorry, I'm massaging my hip.
It's a bit tight.
No, I was actually kind of picking up that energy.
That's why I went quiet for a second was I was feeling a tinge in my hip.
Oh yeah.
Were you transferring your pain to me no no that's
not fair no no no I wasn't transferring my pain to you I was feeling yours oh wow you were it was
sympathetic pain yeah that's that's that's what happens with best friends okay okay you know when
when you hurt I feel it it's like when a husband has sympathetic pregnancy pains.
Oh, honey, I...
My pussy.
I think we're dilated.
I think we're dilated at a foot.
Dude, I'll never...
Yeah, that's a person.
No, I...
Like how we're talking about for like we would go from
dilation to you go, no, I can't talk about this. This is personal.
No, because it was just a memory of- I just don't know if my
my aunt would appreciate me telling this story. I mean, she's not going to hear it.
But I mean, I hope she won't. Okay. Well, the lead up to this being about your aunt doesn't serve you well to begin with.
Well, it.
Okay, so.
I was.
I was like 14.
And I was I was in the closet.
I was in my closet in my bedroom upstairs at my house that I grew up in.
I'm doing a horrible job already leading up to this story
because this sounds like it could go a number of ways.
Because this sounds like it could go a number of ways. But you know, we have like dozens of boxes of old photos from the 90s and early 2000s
back when you would get the photos developed.
Of course.
On like that glossy photo paper.
And I was like, oh man, I want to look at some memories.
So I'm sitting there on the closet floor,
in my socks and jammies, you know, just.
And how old are you?
Probably like 14.
Okay, that's right, okay.
And I'm going through all these pictures
and I'm reminiscing on like, ah-ha,
there's me when I'm five years old
at the Space Needle in Seattle.
Oh, this one's from before I was born. Wow, my mom
looks so young there. And then it was just like, just one picture, smash cut to just
like a gaping scene of childbirth, like up close, flash like wet shining like moment you were brought
into the world and and it shocked me and I didn't I I didn't know what I was
looking at but I did cuz it looks like oh it looks like an I mean it is an
emergency it's it's a it is a medical emergency. It's there's your there's blood there's there's there's jelly. There's
And for some reason I
Was so shocked
And but here's the thing was I didn't know like if this was me or if this was my sister or my cousin
And I couldn't I couldn't put it down there because I'm like, I need to see the next photo.
I go to the next one, same thing,
kind of just different angle.
And then next one, this one's kind of more pulled out.
I remember these vividly, unfortunately.
And lo and behold, it was not my birth,
it was my cousin's birth.
Forest?
No, not cousin forest.
Dude, if you had been able to see little forest coming into this world.
If I could have seen cousin forest's birth.
It might have been worth it.
Dude, why do I feel like I have?
I feel like, no, no, no, dude, I feel like I 100% have seen some video or something. You're sniping through old like family albums to see the see all the birthing photos.
Yeah what year is this? What year was uh was was was she born again? 92? 92?
No.
92 it's not I don't see anything in 92.
What do you not see?
Nothing?
No, just looking around, just vacation pictures.
Maybe it's at the end of a 91 album?
It was scary though, because I had never, you know, being 14, or actually maybe I was
even young, maybe I was like like 11 but just that general age range
you know it's like you have an idea of what childbirth is like in your head and it's
it's scary but I feel like you don't really get it until you see it. Yeah long gone are the days
of a stork carrying a beautiful, what, a beautiful package
to your door. I guess that, yeah, that usually it's a baby in a white bag. Yeah, it's in a cradle or
something. No, it's not a bag. It's a, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like a cloth that's like,
that's like folded around from the top. So when the stork sets the baby down they're just on an open cloth. Yeah. Yeah. But that day the imagery of the stork was just finally ripped from
my heart. And I never told my aunt that I found that those pictures and
I'm probably going to get a phone call now. Just, just. Matthew. My mom's going to go, your aunt is very upset, Matthew.
I'm gonna go, what? Why? Why? What you said on the podcast? Is nothing sacred?
Is your cousin's birth violent birth?
Is your aunt's pussy not sacred? It was a, but yeah.
If you're just showing the photos on the podcast.
Oh dude, I think I, I think I have an album actually.
Yeah, you guys are going to want to tune into the after show on Patreon where I'm going
to actually be showing the photos of my cousin's birth.
Pretty cool stuff.
Shit.
Dude, I have, oh my god, I went to high school with this girl, and that's the end of my story.
No, I went to high school with this girl, and I don't check Facebook very often, but
I check it like once every few months, and every time you get on Facebook now, it's like,
oh, you know, people are engaged and having kids and stuff
and I find I just get on Facebook one day and I just see like childbirth pictures
this this girl she she gave birth and she did one of those at-home water births in the like inflatable pool so I just get on and I just see her just in this like Pool of like red on Facebook. Yes on this to Facebook breasts out like bloody water
and I was like, oh my god, and I had to I had I was like, okay, I
opened up the this album on Facebook and I I perused one of the
this album on Facebook and I perused one of the,
one out of like the 400 photos in this album. 400?
Dude, she straight up shows the baby coming out of her pussy and it's on Facebook.
Is it like a public page?
Yes, this was just on her Facebook for all to see.
She put all the childbirth photos.
That's a bit oversharing, you know?
I don't think it needs to be visualized. I
think it's like childbirth, you would think is probably like one of those things you can
just experience, you know, the experience and maybe a photo of you and the baby after
the experience. Right, right. After the baby's been cleaned up maybe and. No, we want, we
want you screaming in agony, tits out. Yeah, well, it was the whole process from start to finish.
You could even see the water go from clear to filled with afterbirth.
Really wonderful.
I have a question for you, Matthew.
Yeah?
How about the mad reads, question mark.
Hope you all like that ad break.
I know they did.
I know they loved it.
And if you didn't get an ad break then you know it was just a short little poof.
I know it was it was just a fantastic Mr. Fox.
Great movie. George Clooney. Ed Norton.
Mel Gibson. No.
Yeah, he directed that one.
No, Mel Gibson was in The Beaver with Jodie Foster.
Yeah, dude, I was in Jodie Foster's Beaver with my Gibson.
With my with with my Gibson. With my meld Gibson.
So it's like an adjective about your Gibson.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, there we go.
This is genius stuff, man.
We gotta write this down.
Hey, the best comes out when one of us is is fucking taken aback by by an illness.
Dude, but by an airborne illness, this this shit sucks.
I'm so foggy and disoriented.
It's like it's not even necessarily the like that my throat hurts or my head hurts.
It's just like this.
It feels like there's there's me and then reality and
then this big fucking glass wall between the two and the glass wall is all fogged
up and then I picture you say that to a doctor and they're like so you're sick
yes I did yeah I'm sick sick in. Dude, I'm fucking over it dude.
Dude, the end is nigh brother.
Speaking of being sick in the head, earlier we were talking about, you know, when shaving
your head for my two lovely uncles.
Of course.
Something that I've, I'm just itching for an excuse to do is I really want to for a video I would like to
buzz my head and bleach it like Slim Shady style.
I think I know the perfect character.
Do you really?
I think I think that would fit well with that TLC style.
I don't want to give away too much.
Oh yeah yeah yeah.
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah.
I feel like that would that would be really
good for that one we've met a couple of our fans that kind of fit that build yeah yeah you know
what that's not a bad idea uh you know the mrs might kill me but uh i think i think i would i
would stunt do what you want with your body. Your body, your choice. Exactly, dude. My body, my choice. How do you think it would look? Buzzhead, bleached. It would be fine. Also,
I think it would be a weight off your shoulders, huh? Hey. Some hair off your shoulders. Hey,
it's no hair off my shoulders. Hey, okay. God damn, we're hitting it again and again and again and
Okay, okay, god damn we're hitting it again and again and again and again. And again.
Time after time we joke and we gaff and we are best friends.
Matt and Ryan.
See?
Dude, actually the sync on this software we're using is actually pretty, I don't know in
the actual like final product of how in sync it's gonna be're using is actually pretty, I don't know in the actual final product
how in sync it's gonna be, but that was pretty in sync when we were singing, at least on
mine.
Maybe we can try to sing something at the same time and see if it...
Did it sound in sync to you?
Yeah, to me it sounded like...
Maybe it cuts out some of the delay or the supposed delay that there would be from each of ours and it kind of
Maths it to to not have a delay or maybe the the software
Slash brand is that strong Matthew. I don't know. I don't know man that we are smacked by it
Here, let me uh, because the the Sun has now gone down in Los Angeles
Let me you can open your blinds. I need to turn the light on a little bit because I'm looking a little dark.
Give me a...
And while I'm gone, think of a song we can sing.
Okay.
So many fucking good songs.
Hello world, there's a song that we're singing.
There's that one. Hold up. I'm gonna look up
world's greatest
songs
Let's see daddy's back
Yes, who's okay Matthew
I'm on Rolling Stone's top 500 songs of all time and I'm scrolling to one.
Number one?
I'm gonna go all the way to one.
So we're gonna sing the number one song.
Let me guess.
Of all time.
We Will Rock You by Queen.
I don't know if we want to do this one.
Why?
Is it Michael Jackson?
No, it's Aretha Franklin.
My Heart Will Go On?
Respect.
It's a great song.
By Aretha?
R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
That's the number one song of all time according to Rolling Stone?
I guess.
Number two is Public Enemy, Fight the Power. Listen, all time according to Rolling Stone. I guess number two is Public Enemy Fight the Power.
Listen, no disrespect to Miss Aretha. I'm just saying it's a fine song.
I just don't see it.
She's a wonderful artist. I love Aretha Franklin.
I just don't see it as number one of all time.
Number five is Nirvana Smells Like Teen Spirit.
I had that stuck in my head earlier
today while I was laying in bed in a in a sickened haze. I could just hear the beatles don't show up
until number seven with uh Strawberry Fields Forever. Now that is that is one of the Beatles
better better joints. You don't like, uh, the walrus.
Cuckoo Cachoo. Dude.
Strawberry fields forever.
Uh, sorry. I'm looking at all the top and then now I'm just scroll.
I'm essentially just scrolling on the internet. I'm just like,
number 16, Beyonce, Beyonce featuring Jay Z crazy and love.
Which spice girl am I? Dude, the Beatles.. I wanna hold your hand. Was that number five? Sorry, sorry, sorry. Did you hear the news
about Jane's addiction? Do you know who Jane's addiction is? A band? Yes. Like a band that we
would probably hear like when we were in middle school, elementary?
Early 90s and they have that one really famous song but it's like,
Didn't they get in a fight on stage or something or was that another band?
Yeah, yeah that was them. I'm saddened by it because I like that band a lot but they...
Did they break up because of this?
Yeah.
Where, no, no they didn't, did they really?
Yeah. Well they, they, this was their like reunion tour, it's like their first time playing in like 30
something years and there was like all this tension between the singer and the guitarist.
For what reason?
The attention?
Yeah, just be, just musicians being musicians.
Yeah, it's just always seems like it's always been there. And it had been kind of like boiling up at
shows on this tour so far. And they kind of gotten a little like here and there. But then
at this one show, the singer just he singer, he's clearly really fucked up.
He just goes over and just like, BAH!
Goes and punches him.
Yeah, because it looks like they're jumping around and then one of them thinks the other
one shoves them, or maybe it was a shove.
No, no, he walks up and he does.
So they rile each other up.
No, no, no. was a shove but it's like he walks up and he okay so they've so they rile each other up
no no no well he didn't he didn't uh the singer is like fully instigated the whole thing because
the guitarist is just like he's looking down his guitar just playing and then the singer just walks up and like gets up in his face and then like shoulder checks him and then everyone has to
like rush on stage and like grab them and subdue them and then
then the rest of the band like apologized and they ended the show and
That's gonna be us at super mega live to 2050 exactly. It's gonna be
I'm gonna be out there with my bottle of wine
Half drank I'm gonna be screaming get up in your face
They kind of do look like us this I'm on the classic McGee bass
Boom boom boom boom boom boom. Yeah
Well, I'm so pissed because I'm just trying to tell some some one-liners and you're over there just doing baselines I'm doing like Seinfeld baselines
the classic McGee slap bass, but I'm sad they they they announced that they're
Putting all all future stuff on hold. There's also some other sad news which is actually you know some would say just if not
more tragic.
Truly.
You heard James Earl Jones passed away.
Did you? Did you know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I did.
Darth Vader?
Wait, really?
The voice of Darth Vader.
Did he voice Darth Vader?
Mm-hmm.
Dude, I didn't know that.
Did you ever see the Sandlot growing up, too?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, he's the old blind man with the dog.
Yeah, and I know that he's a pretty legendary bro in the Hollywood scene.
He sang a lot too.
Yeah.
I feel like I know him more for music than...
Was he also a producer or am I just completely...
Right?
Did he not do any music? Dude, because in my mind, I remember him more for music
for some reason than than acting, but no. Comedy spoken, religious, classical,
Noah's Ark. This isn't James Earl Jones. Why am I? Did he voice this stuff? Play James Earl Jones.
Did he voice this stuff?
Play James Earl Jones.
Dude, did he not?
Did he never?
Why do I feel like he sang?
He has a beautiful voice. It would have been perfect for a song.
I thought that he did like.
Maybe we're confusing him with with with someone similar.
I'm seeing, oh, I mean, he he, he did, no he won a Grammy.
And a Tony.
I didn't hear him at all. What is this? Oh, he's a speaker. I was, I was listening to portraits of freedom, music, yeah.
So it's him standing in front of doing this classic
like Poe standing in front of the Lincoln Memorial
or monument or whatever in Washington DC.
It's a pretty, it would be a really good album cover photo
but alas, it's just him doing a voiceover.
You know, maybe this is a Mandela effect
moment for the Funny Brothers. I think so. I feel like back in his early younger days, he
did music. I don't know why. Dude, 100% like,
I'm so confused because I knew that he was an actor obviously
but I thought that James Earl Jones was also huge in the music scene and it
It just sounds like it and you thought so too. He has a great voice. I would only
Right. I would only assume that he would have also used it. I mean other than voicing
Mufasa maybe Mufasa sings a little but dude he is one of the few actors that
is a
EGOT
Which means he he got an Emmy a Grammy an Oscar and a Tony
Pretty legendary shit man
Sheldon Cooper and James Earl Jones singing, featuring Carrie Fisher.
From the Big Bang Theory?
Season 7, episode 14.
Wait, Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory and James?
Yeah, they get stuck.
They get stuck on a, oh, now they're on karaoke.
Wait, really?
Is there really James Earl Jones and Sheldon?
And yeah one and and and shell and Sheldon Cooper is going
And then James Earl Jones going away my way away my way away my so, you know
Maybe we were wrong. He did he did do music. He sang with Sheldon Cooper. Yeah, okay
So so there wasn't any kind of Mandela effect. This is
I
Just I sorry I only had one other tab open and I clicked it and it took me right back to the Mel Gibson News
Twitter account
I Gibson News Twitter account. I don't know why the header on the Mel Gibson News Twitter account is
just this poorly cropped photo of a clock where it just says time for truth instead of the numbers
and it's kind of beautiful. How about this? I got some truth for you. The names you're seeing
on screen I believe if it can still work out in the same way that
it did before.
Those motherfuckers, right?
Yeah.
I mean-
It's just a window that shrinks down, right?
Luke will make it work.
Yeah.
We love you.
I mean, how hard would it be to make it work?
Not very. If you're skilled. No, I mean, hard would it be to make it work? Not very.
If you're skilled.
No, I mean is it, I thought this video just shrinks down and then they're playing.
Well yeah, but usually it's when it's just taking the 4.3 camera of us and shrinking
it down to the smaller 4.3 box and this is not necessarily for three because oh well we could do what
they did with movies back when you know VHS is where going out of style in the
digital format and wide screens were slowly gonna be coming into the market
was they did the wide screen VHS where you got a little strip oh yeah you know
you only got a strip of movie on your big square screen,
or you could choose to have the picture zoomed in to where it takes that and zooms in to fill up your screen,
but you're missing a good portion of the top, bottom, left and right.
Right. Right.
We could harken back. It could be like, you know, we like nostalgia for people.
It's a reference.
Exactly.
The branding of the whole podcast is nostalgic, so why not?
Ultra wide screen.
Do you remember that when it would just be like a little slit of a movie because it was
like ultra wide screen?
On your 4.3 TV?
Yeah.
Well, Luke, I'll let Luke make the executive creative decision here.
He could even, you know, if he really feels like it, he could just replace us with a single
picture in that four three box.
Oh, sure.
People would be very angry if he did that.
No, no, I think they would they would understand because this is an emergency and we're recording
this podcast already late and
he's gonna have to go, that's a horse noise. Yes. He's gonna have to winnie his way and edit this.
But is that a reference to the thing with his uncle? With the Mr. Hayden?
I wasn't thinking about it but now that I'm, I could see how you could think but I wasn't originally intending for it
I obviously cut it out Luke. Sorry. We're not trying to poke fun at your uncle's passing with the horse thing
Yeah, so we'll just bring it back in um, but the names of people that are on screen
These are our lovely beautiful podcast producers and executive producers over on our patreon page
They choose to financially
support the Funny Brothers, which is just so noble and kind of them.
Noble is a very good word to use.
Thank you.
I've been thinking about it.
I've had a lot of time to lay in bed and think about what word to use to describe the producers.
What about the executive producers
majestic oh okay that's good yeah you like that that you're gonna get for those who are subscribed to the patreon even just the base tier you got a bonus episode matt has to stick through this
sickness just a little longer and to have another little tiny super mini show on the
patreon after this one so if you're a patron you you'll be able to enjoy that
but if you're not then we will see you in the next video
Bye bye! Okay.. It's amazing. From football to basketball and hockey to baseball, whatever the moment,
