Let's do it!
Biggest problem in the universe.
Welcome to the biggest problem in the universe.
The only show that ranks every problem in the universe.
From controlling guns to shipping puns.
I'm your host, Dick Masterson. With me as always is Vito Gisbaldi.
Hi, Dick.
Buddy, how you doing?
I'm great.
How you doing?
Hyped up. I got this monster energy.
Oh, you don't have the white one, though. That's the one.
Is the white one good?
It's the meme one. I'm pretty sure the white one is the one you got to be drinking.
I do see that in all the memes. Is that like the zero sugar
or something? I have no idea. They all
have like taurine and blasteron
and all kind of energy on it.
It's like the Transformers one.
I don't trust anything that's in those drinks.
I dated a girl
who had a monolith
of them in her garage.
She knew somebody who worked at Monster
and she was hot, so she had
like a stack
that was too high
to get anything safely.
It was like playing Jenga, but she needed
about 12 a day to get up
at 2 p.m.
Well, Dick, I need my daily dose of
D-Gloraglaxitone.
I just can't get through that.
I normally never get these.
You needed some D-Gloraglaxitone? Is know? I just can't get through that. I normally never get these. You needed some D-gloroglaxiglon?
Yeah.
Is that what you need?
Is that the food pyramid?
Some glaraloxicin and some flabid...
Some glutamine?
Some glablastaron?
Yeah.
Some injinkazor?
Cyclobalamin?
That's got B12 vitamins in it, so that's good.
Vitamin...
They got that on there
Vitamin NQ
The Batman symbol

Putting up a W
You be gun control
I be gun control
I can't
Cause everybody misses that Everybody wants a charger for'd be gun control I'd be gun control I can't Because everybody misses that
Everybody wants a charger for the phone
Yeah
Not everybody wants a gun
It should come with a gun
Everything over
If you buy a gun
It should come with a charger
Yeah
What the hell
You're right
It should come with
It should come with some bullets
It should come with some bullets
They should throw some in for free
In case you need to use it right now
What happened in the era of the pack-in?
You used to buy a Super Nintendo, you got a Super Mario
cartridge. You got three games sometimes,
man! They were going the other way with it
and then all of a sudden, one of those dicks
figured out that, oh, wait a minute, let's
just totally rape the kids
and give them a core system.
Core system.
No games at all. You mean you guys couldn't
include the $5 Of plastic to save
$200 for all the cheap
Shit moms out there thanks a lot
They're really running a game on you cause you go
Oh it's only $400 for a console
Yeah but you gotta buy a game
$460 $470 bucks
Three fucking games you used to come with
Oh yeah you used to get that Sega Genesis 3 pack
Start off with golden axe
columns and i think sonic was on no streets of rage i think was on sonic no they didn't give
you some you could you could get one with sonic but sonic was a standalone gun control um armchair
mechanics came in after that and then premature etraculation yeah dead last i figured out a pun
for that though that's a good I mean, the pun should get you
some points. I hope it did.
I think it probably did.
They probably confuse people, actually.
What the fuck is this shit?
It's like, you know, when people do
political nicknames,
they throw too many in, so it doesn't
resemble the old...
They'll go like, Obama
instead of Obama, but then they'll go like
hussein a borank borank hussein obama and you're like i uh i think i know what you're doing but
not exactly uh okay i got some comments jaffee says hey this message is for veto call me jaffee
if you want to talk about on the show i'm on an nda i've been playtesting that console you've
been talking about since about april it's really good for indie games think like binding of isaac or mid-tier graphics single-player
games dark souls hitman stuff like that i think it'll have some problems first i don't know why
i brought this in i don't even know what the fuck he's talking that console you've been talking
about talking about the amico i don't know that thing you brought that guy on that tommy talarico
to talk about yeah it doesn't support multiple. If you have any questions, feel free
to ask. Yes, what the fuck are you talking about?
Yeah, because there's no way. He says it could
run Dark Souls. Is that what he said?
I don't know. Maybe he's talking about the Steam thing?
The Steam platform? Yeah, if he's talking about the Steam
deck, then yeah, that'll run all that
stuff. That makes more sense. Do you have any questions?
Do you have any urgent questions for Jaffe about that?
That he could leak against
the NDA? Make sure to send that to the show.
Is it cool?
That's all I want to know, Jaffe.
Should I be hyped or what?
No?
Yeah.
It's not like I can't get that also.
There's like a million.
You know, they gave it to people to test it and shit.
But thanks for you saying it as well.
Thank you.
Thank you for breaking your NDA.
It feels more intimate because a guy sent it specifically to me.
Please trip over yourselves to give us insider information.
I want to encourage that.
Break your NDAs so that I know more about a video game.
Cat Tahoe says,
Gun control is the biggest problem.
As Dick stated,
everything we waste our lives on is to try and fill the hole in our souls
that is not having more guns.
I understood this immediately as I acquired my first hunting rifle.
I saw my woman,
I me with unparalleled
lust as i brandished my newly acquired instrument of death and just thought to myself that i don't
even care anymore uh for now i've become death the destroyer of worlds what do you think about
i think that this uh written house trial is driving me nuts oh you're not you're not
entertained about guns i think the problem is not gun control I think it's irrational gun Misunderstandings
Comprehension
Yeah why
Well because I've been arguing with guys
And they're like well he put himself in a situation
He didn't need to be in and he had a weapon
I'm like what about that guy
But he crossed state lines too
Okay but there's that other guy
Who he shot right
In the arm
What was the guy Holding in his arm
Just a
A gun shaped
A gun shaped rock
That he had found
It was actually
A lighter
It was a comical lighter
He was trying to light
A cigarette
A peace pipe
That he was gonna share
With Rittenhouse
I'm just like
Okay so
Why is the kid
With the rifle
Like an evil villain
Yeah But the guy with the gun like an evil villain? Yeah.
But the guy with the gun who tried to stop him is the good guy.
Let me help you out with that, okay?
Yeah.
Because the kid with the rifle wanted an excuse to murder protesters.
But this guy...
Which I support, right?
I just want everyone to be clear with that.
We all know that he did it on purpose, right?
And then he was like, I really hope someone fucks with me so I can waste them. Right. Because we're all thinking that. But no one he did it on purpose right and then he was like i really hope someone's
fucks with me so i could waste him right because we're all thinking that but no one can say it
right no one can say it and that's his right but then that's great but then he's the guy who's shot
doing the exact same thing like i hope one of these right-wing psychopaths gives me an excuse
to shoot him in the head yeah so we got their guys so it's the same we got your guys thing why oh my
god i'm going nuts dude i think why but i decide you know what i think it is though i mean maybe
i'm crazy is people see like a handgun they're like oh that's cool you can shoot a guy in the
head with that that's just self-defense but they see like a big rifle and they're like oh mass
shooter he's gonna kill he's here to kill hundreds and i'm like it's the same thing it's the same
thing it's for close shooting yeah uh isomatics posted i saw that oh my god i like it's the same thing it's the same thing it's for close shooting yeah uh
i said maddox posted i saw the oh my god i sent it to bad legal takes i hope they posted he's like
well why did he use a bad legal why wasn't he if he was gonna kill him why wasn't he why was he
chasing him why wasn't he just shooting at him expert fucking marksman annie oakley maddox
he also said that the the only way to determine self-defense is the intent and you're like well
the dead guy's not going to tell you what his intent your intent if a guy do i want to stay
alive like making a stabbing motion you don't have to you know and later you know it's like
oh no i was doing like a funny joke so you're not allowed to defend yourself yeah that was my
intention no it's whether you reasonably
can interpret that you are fearing for your life at that moment maddox would a reasonable person
think that they needed to use self-defense in that situation no no he might have been joking
you don't know and you have to wait to find out you have to you know interrogate him yeah what
the fuck uh we've got to crawl through what maddox determined was intent
in his lawsuit yeah for a half a billion dollars for all for stealing fans and stuff like that for
the ultimate reader of intent the ultimate arbiter of intent i like that one and my other my third
most hated thing about the ridden house thing is all these fucking midwits going,
oh, yeah, but he killed a pedophile.
You guys are not helping.
Yeah.
I know you want to kill pedophiles,
so you're making it seem like it's
an act of vengeance.
Right. Not an act of self-defense.
You're not. Just shut up.
Shut up
with the pedophiles. We get it.
You're super psyched.
I just had sex.
We get it.
Okay.
You're real super psyched that a pedophile got shot.
I mean, it is really funny.
It is really funny that, you know, everybody jumped on.
I can't believe he shot that heroic man.
And you're like, you read it and it's like, wait, what did he do?
And it's like, count one, you know, penetrating a child's butt.
No!
Count two, same thing.
Same thing.
Dude, that's it.
And it's all on the same day.
I guess he had sex with like five kids on the same day.
All right.
All right.
Let's just keep in mind.
He's cartoonishly evil at that point.
Antifa entirely consists of the homeless and the schizophrenic and the criminally insane.
It's George Soros sends a pharmaceutical sales rep in there with a briefcase full of cash
and hands out 20s to homeless people and schizophrenic people and says, go nuts.
Yeah, well, I don't know how it happens.
That's the operation.
I think like a criminal that's how
george soros is doing it i just find it fascinating that they have the worst possible dude as their
martyr it's like i'm sorry guys this would have been easier if he was like a you know a priest or
something but yeah instead you have the he wouldn't be carrying around a joker sized gun
his last thoughts his dying thoughts were fuck i wish I would have had a smaller gun.
Yeah.
Because that thing weighs about, I have that gun.
Yeah.
It weighs about eight pounds.
Maybe more.
It's like, oh, shit, shit, shit.
Yeah, I couldn't get it all the way out.
It's like the end of Cowboy Bebop.
Oh, shit.
Cowboy Bebop, just people are mixed.
And they're making an ice cream
Ben and Jerry's are making an ice cream flavor
did you see that
I got like 200 followers
for that joke
I want a doge veto
my gaze auto fixated on what appears
to be a large roll of toilet paper to the right of your head
can't stop seeing it
that right there
sorry buddy
the eye of the slime turkey sandwich Can't stop saying it. He's referring to that right there. Right there. Sorry, buddy.
The eye of the slime.
Turkey sandwich.
I've never related to a problem more than the three of these.
The mechanic thing was whatever.
Fuck you.
Come on.
Why do you even need to mention it?
You could have just went to the other three.
I really like these three problems.
This one fucking sucks.
You know, it was whatever.
We would have got there.
Yeah.
But I've been complaining about that shipping label created USPS waiting package bullshit for years.
I also just bought a new iPhone for the first time in years and was flabbergasted.
Wow.
By the whole, we're suddenly not giving you the basic shit. You're on a journey, dude.
We're just giving you, because you care about the environment yeah message that was in there there you go
sustainability do they give you a little pamphlet with the phone now they probably they probably do
when you open it up about sustainability are you wondering where the charger is well thankfully
it's in the hearts and minds of these indonesian children yeah fuck you uh and then psychonautic 89 uh did my comment get removed there you go
bring in one of those every fucking week why'd you guys tell you my comment uh okay so you're
you're uh you're up first you don't give us a problem sure you're gonna drum roll me here or
something my problem dick is silencing user feedback now maybe that sounds like a boring one but i think
it's very important deleting comments that's us silencing user feedback of course but even more
problematic is when this is a widespread decision by a tech platform to make sure their users have
no say or input on the content that they are consuming just
shut up and eat it you fucking moron now you may have heard this week that youtube has decided
to remove a very key feature i don't know if you use youtube dick yeah i use it use it well you
may have noticed that under every video there's two little thumbs one of them goes
up to indicate your pleasure with the content you're watching the other one goes down to
signify disappointment i hate this regret yeah hatred yeah and racism racism signal racism
incorrect information yeah and what that does is empower the user of course to inform other users
whether or not what they're about to consume is worth their time or perhaps stupid garbage that
lies or tricks or just is not funny or interesting so as useful as that sounds clearly we need to get
rid of it for some reason yeah because it's embarrassing biden because it's that's why it really that's that seems to me that's why right yes uh as youtube has fuck you
uh youtube is getting rid of the dislike button but what's really confusing is they're like well
it's still gonna be there you can still press it you can still click it like the door close on an elevator it's still gonna be there just doesn't do anything the
only thing it does is the only person who can see it is the guy who made the video
it's the guy who made the video can go out well i guess people so they can lie about it click it
yeah like they're just if i click a button and i obtain nothing from it you're right like a door
close elevator button i'm just gonna not press i don't know i don't need the video maker to like secretly know that i don't want
to empower him i'm not yeah i was never pressing that button to help that guy yes for everybody
else pressing that button so everybody else would know oh this video fucking sucks and it's like a
collective making you feel bad yeah we all got together and everyone did their part to make you feel like
shit and we all know that's part of it we all know that you look like shit but that's the
justification that youtube has given is that the dislike button yeah is akin to bullying
you're bullying this guy who put up a video that said you know make 10 billion off crypto overnight
and then you know
it's just a link to a picture of his dick let me give you youtube's official response at youtube
we strive to be a place for creators of all sizes and backgrounds because these sizes
you know respect the fat man oh yeah all size audience sizes no no no they're specific size
of people yeah wow they want to acknowledge
their larger size creators so i do appreciate that uh creators of all sizes backgrounds can
find and share their voice what there's probably more of a difference between like a skinny girl
and a fat girl between like a fat girl and a fat guy you know like their life is probably more
similar yeah size is probably more important than anything else.
Size is an indicator of lifestyle and you face certain adversity.
Fat phobia, of course, is a problem we will bring in at some point.
To ensure that YouTube promotes respectful interactions between viewers and creators,
we introduced several features and policies.
Earlier this year, we experimented to see if getting rid of the dislike button
could help protect our creators from harassment and reduce dislike attacks where people work to drive up the number of dislikes on a creator's videos.
Our experiment data showed a reduction in dislike attacking behavior.
Wow.
And based on what we've learned, we are making dislike counts private.
based on what we've learned we were making discount dislike counts private
we know you might not agree with this decision
but we believe this is the right thing
for the platform to create an inclusive
and respectful environment where creators
have the opportunity to succeed and feel
safe to express their celebrities
celebrities will be
sad yeah it's so when
the Ghostbusters 2016 trailer comes
out and becomes the most disliked trailer
in movie history.
We don't know that.
Right.
Right.
Because it's embarrassing for Sony.
Now we just go, I didn't like that video, but we don't have, we don't get the news article
that goes most disliked ever.
Yeah.
Most disliked.
10 million people dislike the trailer for this shitty movie.
So Gwyneth Paltrow can go on and like squeeze some vagina
yogurt out of herself into a cup and everybody likes it and everybody like it's just like wow
look at all these likes yeah amazing look there's a thousand likes and you don't know that there's
200 000 dislikes but there wouldn't be because what's the point of pressing dislike if it goes
to no exactly well now that you don't like well as people have pointed out they're like well this is stupid because then everybody is going to comment on every video i'm the dislike
button i'm the dislike button and you just upvote that comment yeah yeah no i'm that well then you're
going to have multiple i'm the dislike buttons i think you will for that instead of saying
because it used to be every video somebody tried to go first they were both now they're gonna go
i'm the dislike button and you have 10 of those getting voted up yeah they could probably write
a browser extension that you just click dislike and it comments dislike what it really comes down
to is i mean they say oh we're trying to protect you the user from bullying and
whatever else but i think it really i mean let's be real yeah when joe biden puts a video on the
white house official page and it's like 10 million down votes 10 up votes you're like oh people really
don't like this guy this is shaping and i find that information valuable even as a guy who voted
for biden and does not hate him it is valuable for me to know
how many people do hate him it gives me like valuable information about the world in which i
live did you did you like when he showered with his daughter what did you what did you think about
that i didn't read the did you vote for him on the daughter showering platform i was a big i'm
surprised would you like to have heard more about that on the campaign or
what's crazy about that is that about the right amount yeah that came out before the campaign
was over and if you had just not but now that the department of justice is like knocking down
fucking buildings to try and find the diary that seems pretty guilty well it's also like dude
streisand effect i hadn't even heard about this fucking diary and now it's all over again we
should have just not you know done your fuckingknock raid to try and find your daughter's fucking...
You dodged the question, though.
Are you pro...
Did I vote for him because of the diary I didn't know about?
No.
Yeah, so you voted for a guy that showers with his daughter.
You did vote for a guy who's...
And you still donate.
And you donate.
I mean, he's showering with his daughter.
Maybe still. The dog's trying to get in there
To save the daughter and he pulled the dog's tail
Look I haven't read everything that went down
What'd she say
She's talking to the granddaughter now
She said there's some inappropriate showering I believe
Was the quote or something
And she said I think I was molested
But not by her dad
Probably by Hunter
Oh you think the brother
did it well then they're keeping him away from the nieces it's like he leaked all of his texts
where he sounds like a psychotic incel he sounds like elliot ron he sounds like chris the kiwi
see i'm gonna say this dick all of this information is something i like to hear your feedback as the
user this is useful yeah it's not it's not making it this like facade of no everything's fine
nobody disagrees with us you know it used to be you could shape the content with your feedback
by telling these outlets and these places hey dislike we don't like it's not what about before
that though you just spoiled because before that we just had the tv what are you gonna shoot your
tv there's you have no feedback well you would write a letter to them.
But yeah, you're right.
Other people couldn't see it.
The best you had was like a letter to the editor of the paper or something.
Yeah.
Yeah, we now have that power.
So why would we take it away?
Like it's an attempt to control, again, for the corporate interests.
You put out a product or something and you don't want the commenters going,
hey, I bought this thing and it killed my kid.
You just go, hey, let's just get rid of the comments section.
Speaking of which, getting rid of...
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
Who did...
I got a list of who else did this.
Netflix did this, didn't they?
Went for Amy Schumer.
That's true.
They used to have the star system where you could rate your Netflix content.
Then Amy Schumer wrecked it.
Yeah, and then Amy Schumer got half a star and they went,
well, we have to protect Amy Schumer wrecked it. Yeah. And then Amy Schumer got half a star and they went, well,
we have to protect Amy Schumer from these trolls.
They always go trolls.
They use trolls as an excuse.
Yeah.
And you're like,
trolls are still real people.
If they don't like it,
it doesn't matter why they don't like it.
That's still valid.
Yeah.
Trolls don't usually not like things to troll.
Is that they usually like things that are bad I think the people
who dislike Amy Schumer legitimate
I mean she's legitimately stolen jokes
100% yeah
there's an Amy Schumer's one of the biggest ones
that I saw and maybe it was just
like you saw it and you forgot
you saw it but she still ripped off
a sketch like
beat for beat it was it was crazy
to me there was a sketch where it's a uh somebody
in a clothing store and like a black salesman helps them or whatever and they're like oh thank
you and uh then they get to the counter and they're like oh uh if somebody helped you let
us know because they get you know a commission and they're like oh well it was the uh and they
didn't want to say the black guy Okay so it's all dancing around that
Yeah but Amy Schumer made
It was like that was like a mad TV sketch
And then like five years later
It's not really that complicated of a sketch to come up with
No but it literally
Was the exact same like
Clothing store
Dancing around the commission
What was the clothing store
I don't know it just seems like
Regardless I think the criticism of Amy Schumer She's also not that funny around the commission what was the clothing store i don't know it just seems like i'm sad regardless
i think the criticism of amy schumer she's also not that funny she's not funny she uh amy schumer
is one of these comics who they went oh it's a lady comic so let's boost her she needed to work
on her i think she could have been funnier yeah she just needed a spotlight like 100 pounds no
fat women can be funny come on rose she needed more she needed to add
about yeah a hundred pounds i almost said the thing she does she could have got there she could
have gotten rotten tomatoes they got rid of their well they still feedback didn't they cap it at
like 83 if it gets too bad they're like stop right stop they uh they like filter it or they
throttle it or something yeah for me the
biggest one and this always drove me nuts was used to have comment sections on these news sites
yeah and that was the most valuable thing like on a vice article you could go hey this guy's
fucking lying to you like i fact checked all this misinformation these guys putting out here's some
sources yeah here's how he skewed this data here's why what he's saying is a complete lie uh and of course they go well hold on they're challenging
our our control of the information of the let's just get rid of it yeah why let these people
comment uh a lot of these news sites all at once all in like a span of like a week they all decided
let's get rid of the comment section i have vice's statement
they say uh we think comment sections are great you know uh wait a minute this might be fake news
yeah yeah i think this one because i read it and got tricked by it let me see it before you read it
what the vice one no i got it right off their website okay do it read it then i got tricked by
a fake news on vice i Trump. Oh, about Trump?
You're better than me at checking stories.
I went to the Vice site.
This was their statement of why they're getting rid of comments.
We love to hear thoughtful responses from readers.
We understand it's part of the age-old tradition of letters to the editors.
It cherishes part of many publications, a valuable way of creating open dialogue between magazines.
But without moderators or fancy algorithms, website comment sections are prone to anarchy and often devolve into racist misogynistic
maelstroms where the loudest most offensive and stupidest opinions get pushed to the top
so loudest and stupidest yeah that's that's the problem right oh you're so worried about having
stupid comments all the way at the bottom
so we're allowed to publish whatever we want and you can't challenge us
because you're racist
deal with it shut the fuck up is basically what they're saying
I don't
the whole point of the internet
and all this data sharing whatever the fuck
was that like
hey man speech
you're right before we just had to swallow
what was ever on the TV.
Now we can go, hey, that motherfucker's lying to me.
Hey, this fucking TV show sucks.
Hey, this lady stole a joke from another lady.
All of that is valuable.
I think instead of going, well, some of the comments are racist or bullying,
you go, all right, well, then hire more moderators and shit like that.
But don't get rid of the great tradition of downvoting.
Yeah, it's kind of a downvoting storm, though.
You got to admit, there is a little bit of like, I think there's ways to address that,
too.
Oh, yeah.
One great way to address that would be like, you can't dislike a video until you watch
at least like two, three minutes of it.
You know, if you show up on the page and like five seconds after you load the video, you're down least like two three minutes of it you know if you show up on the
page and like five seconds after you load the video you're down voting the guy okay well you
just don't like the guy it's not about the video right right uh there's ways to deal with it not
just well we're just not going to show them you know it's it's bizarre and again it is like these
small creators i'm like well why protect those guys they're small who cares i don't care about
small creators no they only care about getting celebrities on there well that's the
other thing i'm like am i really supposed to believe you care about a guy with 100 subscribers
who's getting downvoted because no no i think you just care about yeah biden and these movie
trailers yeah whatever else because it's too funny we're having a good time yeah we're having fun
downvoting stuff do you remember when they used to have the subscriber count used to be like the updated
subscriber count yeah and then everybody was unfollowing like spitefully they would start
live streams where it was like you could just watch the number go down and like go go go go
and you're watching a guy's life get ruined in real time? That was hilarious. That was great. Yeah, I agree.
We should embrace that.
And let us have dislike storms.
If a guy sucks, dislike his shit.
It's funny.
There's this middle ground of having a little bit of fun
and getting rid of all the bad people
and then having all the awful candy-ass people that aren't allowed that are on like
stuck on real tv yeah right that little sweet spot of the internet right uh but that's gone
now i think that's the thing is the celebrities have never had to deal with the idea like
i hate you the people yeah i hate you and i can tell people about it two million people don't
like me how long until twitter gets rid of like the ability to
criticize anybody with a certain follower count oh if you have a hundred thousand uh sorry nobody's
allowed to comment say anything negative about the internet said the internet's gone we're gonna make
another one yeah we are what's that new uh odyssey no nick fuentes' new video platform. Have you seen that? No.
Is it Cozy?
Is that it? I think it's called
Cozy, yeah. If it's not in the blockchain, it has no
future. Okay. Sorry.
Blockchain.
Look at the government. Look at how it's going.
Look at you with your newly minted fucking stone
toss NFT. You like that?
I'm excited. I'm trying to get one.
Oh, you're trying to get one? I'm trying to get one.
What the fuck? He's a very busy guy.
I'll buy one.
You can't buy. What are you trying to...
No, he's going to sell them, I thought.
Yeah, but they're randomized.
The ones you buy. Do you drop $400
in the bucket and it spits you one at random?
Yeah. That's how those
NFTs work. I thought the NFTs work where
you see them and then you can choose.
I don't know.
I don't think you can choose.
I think it's random.
Because some of them are worth more because they're more rare.
I was thinking I might take a chance on pulling the NFT.
I'm going to get some.
Some?
Mortal One?
Oh, yeah.
I'm giving them to...
Is he letting you buy ahead of time?
No.
I'll be there on day one, hitting F5.
How many is he putting out?
I think 5,000.
They're going to be gone in a second.
I know he's going to make a mint.
He's going to make 500 times $420 million.
I think somebody said...
5,000 times 400.
That's 2 million bucks.
Wait, is it 5,000?
Yeah, 5,000 times $2 million.
Times 400. Hey, he deserves it. Oh, is it five thousand? Yeah. Five thousand times. Two million dollars. Times four hundred.
Hey, he deserves it.
Oh, Reddit's going to be pissed.
Pissed what?
That that guy made two million dollars making little racist cartoons?
And they made nothing.
Yeah.
They edit his cartoons all day and they don't make jack shit.
Suntaz makes two million bucks.
I was thinking about making some NFTs.
What are you going to make your NFTs?
Well, I saw, do you know seth mcfarland's making i
don't know if he's the guy making them there's some horrible thing it's like a animated comedy
they're trying to make called stoner cats about cats dick get this who smoke weed but to fund
the series they're selling nTs, cat NFTs.
And I'm like, oh, well, if there's like a project attached that theoretically.
So I was like, well, I had an animated thing I was trying to do.
Different animated thing. We could sell the problems as NFTs.
We could.
On the show.
I don't think, I don't know if people would buy them.
I had some interesting ideas.
You could do something interesting with NFTs.
I don't think people are getting creative enough with them.
I don't think so either. but the gas fees are so high
I think you just gotta tie them to something
in real life is more
exciting yeah
yeah yeah uh okay
anyway my problem is
silencing user
feedback silencing user feedback alright
I think that's a good way to put it or criminalizing
user feedback I don't know
I don't think it's criminalized censoring censoring using the user censoring user feedback
okay censoring you here's my uh here's my problem family court man i'm just real bummed out about
that low tax and dying dying yeah killing Himself. I know. With a gun.
I'm trying to think of puns.
If only we had gun control.
He would have had to kill himself with cheeseburgers then.
He would have had to eat himself to death.
Cheeseburgers.
He could have got you, Bull, to do the job.
He was eating, what, Louisiana hot links on stream for a dollar a piece?
Ten dollars a piece.
That was his last stream.
His last stream his last stream
was him taking ten dollar donations eat sausages and you're like this is a guy who's got the world
on his uh at his back how could he possibly he didn't even buy my shirt was he gonna buy your
shirt no but people should before they die yourself you know everybody knows that i have a suicide
shirt do you yes well now i don't i didn't know that. Yeah, it's $5,000.
It says, I'm done, dude.
And you buy it right before you kill yourself.
Yeah, buy it. I'll ship
it to you. I'll come over, make
sure you watch, you put it on, and then
quietly leave the room. No, no, no, no, no. Just order.
You don't have to wait.
It's a credit card scam.
Because they can't come after you
When you're dead
For the five grand
It's your wife's problem
Who probably put you
In the ground anyway
Family court
Family court
Low tax takes an L
Court
Do we know the
The details
I mean I assume
Yeah I'm gonna talk about it
On this show
On Sunday
It sounds like
Somebody close to him Said she's going to call in
because his ex-wife is just hammering her over Messenger.
Like, oh, fuck you.
This is...
Well, when I was reading it, it's like...
Oh, my fucking Lord.
You know, we just had a court thing.
It was perfectly great.
I have a house to raise my daughter in.
I'm like, so you got the house.
You know? It's even worse oh
yeah well he's got two he had two to deal with yeah uh plus he had that degenerate that horrible
degenerative spine thing oh yeah and he was dealing with uh so this is family court cost 50 billion a
year costs and we have the uh we have our wonderful legal system which is just a shade less violent and adversarial than
pistol dueling right because that's how we worked it out i'd say less seems worse slightly slightly
less i think slightly less at least as okay certainly not more. Okay. More expensive. More expensive. But as adversarial and violent as a pistol.
As murdering each other.
Right.
And we take people who cannot get along at all.
Right.
And none of us care why.
None of us.
It should be none of our business.
And we make them go through this idiotic process, this idiotic adversarial trial and pretend to be total psychopaths because they don't act, excuse me,
they're not acting like they act.
If they act the way they act in real life, they will be penalized by some old pencil dick who's on an authority trip, right?
Who's on an authority trip, right?
Who's there, whose side job, the judge, by the way, is the guy who's using his infinite wisdom to send people to prison for dealing weed.
Okay? So this is the, we have the dumbest decision makers in our societies, judges.
Right.
right deciding an adversarial contest of who can be the bigger sociopath in a in a in an in an atmosphere that is uh uh uh uh what is it adversarial provocatively adversarial making
them making them try to make the other lose their cool and look bad it's a weird and they have to pay and
the loser has to pay for it it really is just like a bizarre popularity contest where you're
trying to convince a man you've never met before that you are a better person morally than the
person sitting across the bigger psychopath wins the worst person necessarily wins the worst or the
richer person necessarily wins and when they do win in america when you win those kids
you get the fucking money yeah you get the kids and the money you get it could be well the money
is for the kids dick of course dave fo? You know that guy's story? Kids in the
Hall? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know
Dave Foley. What's the story?
Wasn't he Kids in the Hall?
He got hit in divorce court in Canada.
Family court. So I'm calling it
family court. Divorce court, not exactly
the same. Family, because family court,
the kid's the fucking jackpot. Like, you're competing.
Like, whistling at a dog,
right? Like, come over here.
Come over here.
Come over here.
Come over here.
Ah, he likes me.
Yeah.
He got hit.
I got Xbox.
I got Fortnite.
Yeah, you want to?
I got free drinking.
Two Christmases.
Two Christmases.
I'm going to bring strange men home, and they're going to, you know, do stuff for them.
I got you a new mom.
She's better than the old one.
She makes brownies.
Huge hits.
He got hit with at that
peak of his peak of his earnings yeah so family court said okay well that's your out that's your
child support amount something out something like forty thousand dollars a month he's like well i
can't i have no chance of making that so he can't go to canada so he cannot go to his native native
country or see his kids because he owes probably millions in child support
That he has no chance of making
Ever
Because
Cause the court
Well you made a million dollars in May
And he's like
Done
Yeah we just look at the last month
Or something stupid
And he's like
That was literally you know
My paycheck for you know
10 years of work or some shit
Yeah
Um
Well at least he at least he figured
out he can leave the fucking country good for him on that yeah do you think his kids that's what
happens they get taken back to canada too right or whose kids and i don't know dave i don't know
well i just hope you're i hope your kids grow up and you can explain to them hey listen i couldn't
afford you sorry the cot The average cost of a divorce
Is 13,000 bucks
That sounds low
Average though
This is people who are like yeah I'm done
Some people it's zero
Still 50-50
This really annoys me
This whole like trad movement
Of all this start a family shit
They don't know what they're getting into here's
why it annoys me because because the entire court system is set up to fuck men right because they're
the high earners well that's the whole problem with having a popularity contest in court it's
like well the woman wins like what do you yeah we as a society are prepped to go well i feel bad for
her you know because because I might,
I want to fuck her.
So I have to feel more sympathetic towards her.
So you got all these young men who have no direction in life because they can't make any money because you sent all the jobs to China.
Right.
Who are looking up to guys online and in real life telling them,
well,
you know,
the secret is you just clean your room.
You got to clean your room.
You got to,
you got to acceptesus christ into your
life and you gotta get married and have kids i'm like well i gotta get fucking married and it's
like getting married and have kids was the greatest thing i ever done like bro you don't you fucking
don't for a second fucking think that some sort of internal algorithm you've been running is how
you looked into the 50 of marriages that have worked out so far by the way right you haven't
been fucked yet all these by your wife what do you call it speakers give them 10 more years until
their wife goes and he was crazy and telling young men to uh find their inner self and i want the
kids in the house and everything else not to mention man if you're a young guy and you're
trying to get on your feet don't think a wife and kids are what's gonna get you there like
you're just putting yourself in a fucking hole disregard females buy bitcoin buy chain link
uh according to the u.s census here's here's the stats for you if you don't
only three percent of the 400 000 people receiving alimony are men.
Yikes.
Yikes.
What the hell is that?
That seems like a fair situation.
Well, I would like to know what percentage of men are out earning women,
but I don't think it's nearly that.
Well, according to the pay gap
which was lies wasn't it like 76 percent right so it should be so it should be there yeah but
then reduced it was like something like three like 70 like 97 when you reduce for all the similar
jobs and stuff like that the men are only earning like three percent more something like that I don't know I forget it an idiot explained it
to me once
attorneys say
that another reason
for the extremely low
percentage of men
receiving alimony
is the fight
that women
who are the chief
earners in the family
are more likely
to put up a fight
about paying it
than the men are
oh really
women are
surprised
women
put up a fight huh yeah they kind of want to have their
way you might say when the women push back on the idea of paying alimony the men are further
humiliated they are essentially shamed into not taking the alimony um i'm gonna say that to men
uh if you can get free money from a woman just to make it happen don't we're not we're not gonna be
oh you fucking cock a kid no no, no. Take the money.
Take the money.
That's why this fucking system exists.
It's the idea.
I don't want to be humiliated by taking.
No, just take the money.
This idea of going.
Like, I understand having to explain to a judge why, like, you deserve this business or whatever.
Yeah.
Or you shouldn't go to jail.
Like, your honor, I don't think I should go to jail for having a bunch a bunch of weed yeah and they're not gonna they're like and the judge is like well
you know i don't think so either but the law says my hands are tied guilty i don't understand the
concept of going in there and saying like and trying to explain why uh i fucking this bitch is
crazy and vice versa either way like this guy's a fucking mental patient and we have five kids
and i'm i'm thinking i'm thinking at home that this idea is retarded that it should be handled
in any way by the court system just give them a give them a give them a better help account
and say i don't know you guys figured like you guys fucking started
this mess why is it in court at all i don't like i can't take my league of legends uh problems with
my i can't take my dnd problems to court i uh we were supposed to share the contents of any gold
treasure chest but his character clicked on it first and yeah this doesn't disprove this whole uh
patriarchy idea if men were really running everything and got every fucking bonus or
whatever like women could go topless in public yeah if men were in charge we lose every single
one of these cases so don't act like oh well you've got every fucking advantage for having a
dick it doesn't help you in court here's what an idiot says about
it uh family court gets a bad rap not because not not because of the judges or laws she says
some other fact right right right that's not the problem okay judges are the laws but mainly
because of the lawyers it takes a special type of lawyer to handle these
cases the truth is that most cases can be mediated but rarely is this ordered but that often has to
do with the lawyers not the court so you've got lawyers who need money whipping up any sort of
animosity that they can yeah the client has that's the only way they make money. Taking them into this psychopath pantomime to get custody of a golden ticket.
So that either the man does not have to pay hundreds of thousands, all of his money.
So much money.
And how much does it cost to take care of a kid?
Like a couple hundred bucks a month
well that's the clothes are basically free they eat off the fucking dollar menu what is crazy to
me is like the celebrities it's like divorce their wives i'm like all right yeah you gotta
give her like a good amount but when it's like that much you give her 200 000 a month it's like
why yeah why does she's used to that amount of money Okay So am I I watch TV
I know what that money gets
When I married her
She was a fucking stripper
With $15
Okay, so we'll make sure
She gets $20 an hour now
That's horrible
It's still better than where she was at before
It's horrible
And it killed my friend
And she's got to look after the kids
So give her an extra fiver
Yeah
Yeah
Here, I brought something else in for you
What is Jeff Bezos' wife?
Didn't he have to give her billions?
Yeah, but it's all stock.
Yeah, she got control of...
So she's theoretically got nothing.
Yeah, theoretically.
Makes no income.
Right.
The Scandinavian model of divorce and custody.
It's on the parents to mediate and sort out the issue
with very little legal
interference or dragged out proceedings.
So the whole marriage thing in the U S is just an endless.
I mean,
if you sit,
if you sit them down,
I'd tell him you got two weeks to figure it out.
And,
uh,
if you don't,
we shoot your kids in the head.
It's a good system.
You cut the kid in half.
You got two weeks. And at the end of it, we cut off the kid's head. You get the head. You mean cut kid in half then You got two weeks and at the end of it
We cut off the kid's head
You get the head
No we're gonna cut his head off
Figure it out
Well but my truth means
Like me living in like
New York and I'm gonna live
You should have thought of that
I'm sorry
Figure it out or we shoot the kid
in the this is not any of our problem no this is not any of our fucking problem stop making it our
problem do what do you have a corver uh your honor my my husband called me fat the other day oh well
we gotta send to the court we're gonna fight this accord yeah it's the same thing we have dog do
they have dog custody in court now i think think they do That's part of divorce settlements
Who gets the fucking dog
That's fucking heartbreaking
Losing your dog to your wife
That's worse than losing your kid
I don't care about any of it
I don't care
Both of you caused this
Go do MDMA
And just deal with it There's no way as bad as either of you are
you're not as miserable as I am all the time so just deal with it just deal with it for another
18 years and then you can both fuck off and you don't need to pay anyone anything it's it doesn't
this idea that you just like have accrued a stock savings from being together for 18 years is fucking insane.
You should have thought of it.
You should have learned to code.
You could do any, go get married again.
You fucking idiot.
Did you forget how to fuck?
Get a prenuptial agreement.
Although now even judges.
It doesn't even work.
Yeah, they say prenups don't count anymore.
You're like, it's a contract contract how do you explain to a judge how do you explain to a judge who would sentence
someone to jail for marijuana that this is i mean they're the they're the the dumb lawyers become
judges yeah that's how that works like oh fuck i'm not good enough at being a lawyer judge it out
judge i'm gonna sit down all day i'm loving this written house judge though
oh you like him i like him he's fun everyone's like mad at him i'm like this guy's great he's
telling little stories i'm like learning lessons and stuff i don't know why but i don't he's
reading cookie catalogs in between uh yeah did you see that picture no yeah like there's a little
downturn in the case he just pulls open his cookie catalog and he's like at the bailiff he's like what do you think about these yeah like holiday it's like a holiday cookie like
catalog you order them i'm like this guy just seems like a great guy he see mail orders cookies
good for him i get i want that guy presiding over my divorce crying on his stand yeah that was so
embarrassing oh my god come on
well it's ridiculous that everybody thinks he was faking it i'm like come on you can't fake
looking like a bitch like that nah you can fake that i couldn't fake that any kid could fake crying
to be fair he's
i was gonna say he is a kid kids are good at faking that shit yeah exactly kids can't cry
they never cry genuinely because they have no sense of they only live in euphoric happiness
all day every day is that what you think of childhood men yes are the only ones capable
of genuinely crying that's what I'm telling you.
That's kind of true.
I get that.
Dick, what's your problem?
That's why you should never.
Women will try to trick you.
I'll bring that in at some point.
Tricky women.
Yeah.
You're not allowed to bring women as a problem.
I've already did that on the last show.
My problem was family court.
There you go.
Nailed it.
What do you got?
Well, Dick, you know, employment's a big problem in this country.
That's not my problem, but it is a problem.
Okay.
People want to be paid a fair wage.
They want to be properly compensated for their work.
You know, if you don't control the means of production,
surely those who do could throw you a bone and take care of you as a loyal employee.
You said something communist, though, I think.
Well, we have in this country unions, which I would argue have some uses.
They've accomplished some good.
But the problem is we got a new type of union coming our way.
Okay. That's my problem here today type of union coming our way. Okay.
That's my problem here today, Dick.
The woke union.
Okay.
Woke unions.
Yeah.
Now.
You throw a woke in front of anything.
And you got a good problem there?
Yeah, you did like woke marketing.
Woke marketing is number one right now.
Do you like woke Slim Jims?
I try to reserve using that term for when it truly applies because people toss it around a lot.
Yeah.
But this does feel like an appropriate time to use it.
What's a woke union?
Well, have you heard of, of course, Image Comics comic book publisher known for such titles as Spawn, Savage Dragon, and Invincible, which is now a popular cartoon on the Amazon Prime.
Have you watched Invincible?
Yeah, that was great.
It was great, right?
Yeah.
It's kind of like the spirit of independent comics gets things done.
Yeah.
But that's all about to come to a grinding halt
if the comic collective union gets their way.
Now, this is a union that will only involve the office workers of image comics
none of the comic creators none of the writers because they're all cons they're all contractors
okay you know like uh even even todd mcfarland i mean he owns part of it but he's uh it's like
a separate shell whatever this is just the guys who work in the office probably like type setting
or you know fucking social media people there's only nine of
them really that's what i read they want to unionize these nine people want to unionize
and they say wokeness well here's here's their here's their reasoning okay we the workers of
image comics have formed a union for years comic publishing workers have watched our professional
efforts support creators and delight readers we've watched that same labor been taken for granted at best and exploited at worst
keeping our heads above water was the new normal before the pandemic blah blah blah blah blah
uh we love what we do but loving what you do doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't ask for
improvements to your working conditions okay it is with this in mind with great hope for the future
of image comics in the comic industry that we announce our intent to form a union okay so i to your working conditions. It is with this in mind, with great hope for the future of Image Comics
and the comic book industry, that we announce our intent to form a union.
Okay.
So I want to give you two points, two things that sound pretty reasonable, right?
The workforce is overtaxed and undervalued.
All right.
Okay.
Sure.
I'll give you that.
I can get behind that.
And we want improvements to our working conditions.
Ping pong table.
Sure.
Okay.
So how do you want
how do you want to get that right and the union says well here are the points that we want that
we think are going to health care and improvements yeah yeah time off child care decent wage sure
yeah i get it a weekend where again improvements right to our working conditions okay sure sounds reasonable okay salary and
workload transparency sure makes sense improve staff morale through uh reviews sure of performance
detailed record keeping improve career mobility a long-term actionable plan to address the overall
lack of diversity. Oh.
Hold on. So they're having a union to fire white people? The authors,
artists, and readers who bring comics to life have never
been more homogenous.
And the stories we publish can only be improved by
staffing our organization in a way that more accurately
reflects the demographics of our
creators, our readership, and the nation as a whole.
So we want to be in charge
of hiring people
by race by race this will how many somehow racial makeup of nine people i'm sure they're all white
well it's in portland so who knows they all probably identify as every fucking thing they
only need one black guy to be representative of america if there's nine people. The point is this workforce is overtaxed and undervalued
and the only way to address that is to hire
more black people or brown
people or gay people.
Otherwise, they're going to be
overtaxed.
There's not even enough. Trans is only 1%.
They're not going to get...
They can only be trans one day a week if they go to that office.
They need improvements to their working
conditions.
I don't think you understand.
But you know what would really improve their working conditions is number nine.
This is the really important one.
All right.
A renewed commitment to company values through the addition of a collective voting option
to immediately cancel publication of any title whose creators have been found to engage in abuse sexual assault racism
xenophobia homophobia transphobia anti-semitism islamophobia ableism etc until such time as those
creators have engaged in meaningful reparations toward affecting persons so they want the nine
people working in the office yeah i assume the janitor gets a fucking vote
gets to decide it's two votes which comic books they're allowed to publish they're allowed to go
oh todd mcfarley and said something that sounded kind of racist we're gonna cancel those spawn
read number nine i didn't make this up okay so they could cancel any title of a creator who's
been found to engage in abuse yes i don't know abuse is kind of murky all of this is purposefully
murky sexual assault it's murky they don't say rape they don't say i got a feeling if todd
mcfarland raped someone he would be out he would already be out regardless you don't say rape They don't say rape I got a feeling If Todd McFarlane Rapes someone He would be out
He would already be out
Regardless
You don't need to have
A vote on it
If Todd McFarlane
Becomes a rapist
Okay
Racism and xenophobia
But there's like comics
How do they
Draw the distinction
Between the creator
And the things
That they're
Drawing
Well one thing
I didn't think about
Did you ever see the book
That Frank Miller put out
That now everybody's saying
Frank Miller is a secret Islamophobic racist okay after 9-11 he said
i'm gonna do a book called holy terror it's gonna be about batman kicking the shit out of uh bin
laden okay and then dc was like well we're not gonna let you use batman for that he's like fine
i'll make my own guy and he basically made a comic book about a superhero, a Batman-like superhero, going and murdering the shit out of a bunch of, you know, fucking Taliban.
And now they're saying, oh, Frank Miller's an Islamophobe.
He would not be allowed to have a comic book at Image Comics.
One of the great comic creators of all time.
I don't...
I think this is like the Big Mac song, kind of.
You remember that song?
In the 80s?
Ableism.
Yeah.
Xenophobia.
Islam.
Racism.
Anisemitism.
Odyssey.
Sesame seed bun.
Et cetera.
Et cetera.
I think they should have kept going.
Like, this is like pie.
You got to memorize every type of phobia and ism.
But here's the thing.
Here's why this is really sinister this is supposed to be
a union right like a collective workers to help the worker to help the worker a little more money
make yeah have a little bit of job security or whatever so when they announce when they announce
we're starting a union all these people come out and they go well of course we fucking love unions why why
would i not get behind a union but this is this is not a union thing this is a firing mob right
the opposite they've used what was supposed to be a system by which uh workers could collectively
negotiate raises and work conditions are now like,
well, let's use that to control creativity and who you're allowed to work with.
Yeah.
This is insanity.
And I looked at this and I'm like,
Oh,
they're going to fucking do this everywhere.
They're going to,
they're definitely going to do it at Netflix.
The Netflix employees go,
Oh,
you're not going to cancel Dave Chappelle? Well, we're going to unionize
and one of our union items
is that we have the right to, as the workers,
the fucking janitor
and the receptionist and the social media guy,
we all get to vote on
which comedians you're allowed to work with.
That's fucking
terrifying! Holy
shit!
They could do that! If they start a union i mean the
only the only thing you can do is clean house you clean house oh yeah this you gotta fire everybody
if there's only nine of them they're gone that would be so great uh the ceo of base camp did
something like that yeah there was murmurs because uh silicon valley is just ruined with shit like this like there's
these um these uh deranged people these deranged people pulling down 180 a year plus stock options
sit on their slack channels all day and like come up with new ways to uh ruin yeah to ruin
the operation for which they're yeah like they endlessly sit there and come up
with praxis ideas like well this is what the company did they'll have their hackathon days
like internally where you're supposed to come up with innovative new things and ideas yeah use your
own time uh they'll spend that time coming up with like insane ways to shame the company uh
implementing weird codes of conduct that expect like master
slave yeah new terminologies to go through there just a bunch of uh just a bunch of um uh etiquette
shit this is fuck i'm fucking terrified by this and it really does it is one of those things where
i look at it i'm like okay first of all why'd you put it why'd you headquarter your business in portland just leave yeah if you have a business in portland get out
now well you still can don't start hiring these people with the pink hair and everything else
because you're fucked uh but what you got to do you got a clean house you got to fire all these
people yeah because you know what i think is going to happen if this union goes through
what i think overnight todd mcfarland goes see you again he
has to go start image again i'm gone why would you stick around why would here here's how i look at
it why would i go to image comics and be like i want to make a comic with you knowing that the
receptionist at any point could vote to cancel my comic because she doesn't like what i said online
like i'm just gonna go yeah i'm gonna
go find a publisher that doesn't do that because that's retarded the guy the base camp guy said
oh i guess he apologized afterwards he had this big write-up about how politics don't belong at
work at all yeah uh and then he later walked it back and then a bunch of people quit over it and
he kind of walked it back but god damn i wish
one of these people just say you know what fuck you yeah just go fuck go fuck yourselves actually
just take your 108 obviously you're not working all day yeah so fuck off with your 180 000 a year
plus health care whatever i also have to pay for look at these fucking organizations that like
netflix has these like loud whiny motherfuckers like. Like I want to cancel Chappelle's or Spotify.
I want to cancel Joe Rogan.
I'm like, we make money.
You guys understand that, right?
Yeah.
We don't make money by making new trans flags.
We make money by putting out this great content that people pay for.
You and your homeless trans friends aren't buying Spotify subscriptions.
This is the worst part.
But like you could just fire those people and replace them with a normal person.
Nothing. Yeah. Or nothing. Automate that automate that shit get the proud boys in there well i mean literally why you hire
new people anyone in there and they'll just go yeah i don't know just pay me like it's not my
job to determine what goes on your platform uh until such time as said creators so they have
creators in mind uh have engaged in meaningful reparations
fuck that toward affected you what is it carbon credits racism meaningful reparation for the
racism credit if i donate 10 million dollars am i allowed to say the n-word like how does this work
you need a box that's a little you can help kids in africa for like three cents a day that's true
gotta buy me a couple n-words gotta. That's gotta buy at least a couple.
They could eat
for the day. I know issue 183
the N-Word Avenger made people a bit upset
but I sponsored like 10 of those
African kids. 30 bucks. Yeah, 30
bucks. Are you telling me that's
not enough? Is it too much?
Is that what you're saying? You want those 10 African
kids to not eat rice? Come on now.
This seems very scary.
I hope company, but I'm worried that companies are just going to roll over.
Even if it's not a union.
Again, with these Spotify employees are like, we need to censor Joe Rogan's episodes.
And it's your company, man.
Why are you like, everybody's like, well, the workers should control the means of production.
I'm like, no, they're stupid.
And that's why they don't. there's got to be a time they should have like
fair treatment but i don't want them in charge of the fucking machine yeah yeah uh especially
if the telling me if the machine is racist or not right uh there's got to be a time where they
they already killed the middle class by ship outsourcing all the jobs right so the only thing that um i
don't know what to call it the banking industry can do now is target these these people this woke
squad right it seems it seems profitable now that biden is elected and they don't need them anymore
because they have total control of the united states vis-a-vis the cdc
and osha yeah like there's no now that's going away man well they don't if as long if the voting
doesn't matter and they could just keep putting in despots who control the country vis-a-vis
bureaucratic systems right yeah then they don't need any of these people and they could just
keep all the money outsource and keep outsourcing everything they need and then they could let they
could help china and africa help all the other countries go through this system of butt fucking
that we've been through yeah and they own the rothschilds could just own everything then they
don't need them anymore they needed them to get rid of Trump.
But now that it's already happened.
Yeah, they don't need to be gone.
It's not like student debt's never getting canceled.
You know?
I'm living a nightmare.
Every day is a fucking nightmare.
You should have voted for Trump.
I don't think that would have helped necessarily.
Couldn't have hurt.
I think it would have hurt.
I don't think any of this would be different.
I really don't.
If what?
Trump was running the show
They'd still be
They'd still have an
Image Comics union
Trump is not gonna put
A stop to it
Nah you gotta give them
Somebody to go after
Can't you guys just run
They'd just be
No they were
I'll tell you what
I went to David Sedaris
Thing last night
Yeah
Reading
He reads stories
Right
And he was talking about
How as soon as
Trump left office
He just stopped
Paying attention to the news
And while Trump was president
He would exhaust himself All day reading headlines and like obsessing about
what he was saying,
what this meant.
And it's important to give these people something to do.
They need to hate.
I need someone to focus on so that they're not like a dog.
Yeah.
They'll just run themselves ragged because now they've got the playbook.
They got no one to hate, but they'll hate anybody.
It doesn't have to be true.
I mean, they were mad at fucking Mitt Romney, the most boring motherfucker in the world.
Trump had his special gift.
He was very good at pissing people off, but that's why he couldn't win because he...
Oh, Vito, you stole the election.
We stole it because you made it too easy.
Okay, is that your problem?
My problem is woke unions.
Okay.
My problem is crappy slow motion.
Yeah.
You know, when you're watching a movie, getting really into the action movie, right?
Yeah.
And then it comes time for this big, awesome fucking punch or something.
And they cut to the slow motion that's like all jerky and
crappy yeah it's not slow motion right it's like you you took regular film oh you mean like
legitimately crappy slow motion yeah you took the regular film and then you made it down to like 10
frames a second or whatever yeah and you're
playing this off like it's regular slow motion this looks this movie is ruined and my disappointment
is uh is immeasurable you know what that always ruined for me what uh empire strikes back which
part i think we're all connected by these horrible memories. There's that part where he goes into the tree and it's clear.
Yeah.
That they didn't have.
Yeah.
And everybody says that scene ruined the movie,
but it's actually the shitty slow motion that they did.
Absolutely.
Because they didn't want to kick in a couple bucks.
Well,
at this point I'm like,
I know they don't want George Lucas going in and messing with anything, point i'm like i know they don't want george lucas going in and messing with
anything but i'm like i think you should just add a couple fucking digitally interpolated frames to
that herky jerky seeing your father in a tree sequence that would be nice it shouldn't be
allowed they shouldn't let alec baldwin have any kind of prop guns in movies anymore that should
be illegal and they should not let them get away.
It should have a warning at least.
It says warning.
It has a warning for tits.
Yeah.
Sex, whatever,
which helps no one.
Like who has ever been surprised?
Oh, it's Titty Blasters 3.
You're telling me there's a sexual content in this?
I better not take the kids there.
Well, whenever you see that slow motion,
it means that the filmmakers screwed up. It's an error it takes me out of it yeah well we didn't
have enough footage so we slowed this down even though it looks like shit let me play you an
example okay you know what i mean i'm gonna bring back a nightmare this is an example from demolition
man uh at the very this is the very end you understand this is the end of the movie the
climax uh-huh now i don't know i don't know if i i can't probably can't put the video on youtube the very end. You understand? This is the end of the movie. The climax.
I probably can't put the video on YouTube.
Right?
How long is the scene?
It's like 10 seconds.
You can put up a 10 seconds clip.
Now, Vito,
please remember to get into the movie
like you're 14 or however old you were.
I love Demolition Man.
You know what I found out recently? What? That there is a... If not, I can cut it out. Get into the movie. Like you're 14 or however old you were. I love Demolition Man. Great movie.
You know what I found out recently?
What?
That there is a...
I think it's the 3DO.
It was on...
Do you know the 3DO?
It was like this console no one had.
Yeah.
They made a Demolition Man video game,
but it actually has acting from Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes.
Really?
Yeah, like additional scenes, but they're terrible.
And like, there's like a Mortal Kombat fighting game
where they actually like photograph them
doing the Mortal Kombat shit or whatever.
Okay.
I'm like, shit, I want to play the Demolition Man game now.
Okay, we got to find it.
Okay, now watch this,
and you'll remember this from when you were a kid.
This is when John Spartan is about to get killed
by Wesley Snipes, and he sees the cryo freezer,zer, and he grabs the cryo-freezing thing,
and watch this.
Shitty slow motion.
Look at that.
Oh, God.
Look at that.
Look at that.
And then right into good slow motion.
Well, yeah, because they did that.
Right into amazing slow motion.
Well, that was clearly a, what do you call it, a reshoot or a shoot after the fact,
because you don't actually see him acting.
They went, oh, we don't have enough.
We don't have that scene looking good
because we shot it on the wrong.
What am I paying for?
Right.
This is not a complete product.
It takes you right out of it.
Every time.
We're lucky now because I think all the cameras
are shooting at 60 frames per second
and then they just reduce it down to 23 after the fact.
Back then, you'd just shoot it and it's one and done
Movies are all garbage now though
These are real classics
These are real classics
Well I think they could go in
They're ruined by shitty slow motion
I would enjoy if the director
I mean I want the director to give his approval
To replace this?
How do you feel about directors altering old movies?
I don't care
I mean sometimes
Because you can just pirate the old
Sometimes you get i mean the
technology is advanced if you can fix yeah i mean when george lucas started putting poo-poo monsters
and little dance songs and star wars you're like all right buddy this should be for like little
technical things okay you want to make the the trench run look a little cooler fine i think you
didn't go far enough every scene should have a little alien going
Goople gopple Mr. Lucas Skywalker
Goople gopple
Now that lady dancing
In Jabba's palace
Oh my god dude
Cause that was a scary place
When I saw it as a kid I was like oh man this is fucked
When that lady came out
I'm so glad they made it so much more fun
Imagine how badly our sexual deviance would be
if that had been in the original film.
All the screaming and lip smacking.
At least when we were kids,
we had to deal with monsters that were mostly humanoid
because they were guys in suits.
And we still got furries out of that, right?
Because of mascots.
Now kids have Sonic the Hedgehog
and fucking Big Lip
whores on...
What is that from? Like, why did
Big Lip bimbo whores become
like a thing? What do you mean?
But I'm saying like this cartoon
transformation.
I don't understand where these fetishes
come from. Yeah. It's very
bizarre. But that's going to be the future.
But the furries, I can draw a line. I'm like, I get it. You watched Tailsp's gonna be the future but the furries i can draw a line
i'm like i get it you watched tailspin you wanted to fuck the the girl rebecca cunningham yeah not
molly the problem is i'm thinking about my name is probably louis there was a lot of cross-dressing
in that show i did louis where fucking in the pilot blue is like dressing as a lady and dancing
around and saying like would you
pilot me i would pilot me yeah no what was the kid the kid was kit right yeah yeah okay don't
put kids there's no shitty slow motion in that though no but in cartoons there is something
there's the wrong color and you know it's gonna move yeah that's like oh great i wonder if this potato stack is gonna be destroyed
there you go there it goes because they could have matched the fucking colors up because of
the laziness shitty slow motion it does uh every movie gladiator really bothers empire strikes back
uh patriot probably oh i gotta watch the patriot And see if it's in that It ruins
A little bit in every action movie
And always
Immediately ruins it
And you think
What is
Yeah cause you have to play
Why didn't you just play it regularly
Why didn't you do it again
Well they usually
Or when they'll go like
Sometimes they'll
Play it twice
Like what the fuck was that
I think their worry is that the audience can't track the motion without slowing it down.
So then shoot it again.
Don't give me this shitty...
I don't get to pay five bucks for a ticket and then say, oh, I will come back with four.
It's kind of a legacy problem, though.
There's some ideas that you can sell these ideas that I have, maybe flesh them out.
But I guess the argument would be well shouldn't you respect
the filmmakers of the
time doing the best they could
no it's not
it's not if that's the best they could
do then no you should not respect
them because that's crappy and it takes
me out of it every fucking time
because I instantly I'm watching a movie
I'm not watching
I'm not watching John Spartan
I'm watching Sebastian Stallone who shits on plexiglass
Above girls in his bed
Wait is that a thing?
I don't know
Sounds like it
I've never seen Stallone's sex tape
Have you ever seen that?
No
He made it like before Rocky
I don't watch sex tapes
It's like basically assaulting
the person. Well, this was one he put
out like he was like a porn star.
Oh, then no. Yeah.
Before Rocky, he did like one
porn movie. I heard about that. I haven't
seen it. Well, that's my problem. I heard it has
a lot of slow-mo. Is it
shitty? Yeah, it's really bad.
I know his dick's going into
the girl. You don not gonna slow it down
It stops being a film
It's just like
I think Blade Runner had some
Shitty slow motion as well
They all do
Well it became a crutch for the editor
You know and nobody told them
Slow that down
It's gonna look like shit though
These fucking idiots won't...
They won't know the difference.
No one will ever call us out on it until now.
That was kind of the problem with movies back then,
is nobody did know the difference.
You could get away with a lot of garbage.
I've hated it my whole life.
I'm glad that we can finally talk about it.
We should fix it.
We have the technology.
For once,
this is the one time i'm okay with cg
being a or just put it like a card in there that says and then he smashed it in slow motion was
awesome no like you literally could just go in and uh and it would not be that hard i would
actually i could do it on my end i think do it there's been guys let's fix let's fix this like
did you ever we could shoot a reach
we could reshoot that scene
you don't even need to reshoot it you know just that part
yeah just that part
part yeah it would be a good channel
inserting ourselves into the bad slow
mode to fix it yeah it's all of a sudden
cuts to us in the same uh
from hack the movies could do it since he's just steals
our ideas yeah and other people
too he had that sign thing oh yeah because he's been taking my bits yeah he's dressing up as me
tony tony from steal my bits name is hack the movies could actually hack he's never hacked a
movie as far as i know that's true he should hack the movies and like why you hack a movie add stuff
to them or like hack them into something yeah or like put himself in scenes yeah you hack a movie? Add stuff to them or hack them into something. Yeah, or put himself in scenes.
Yeah.
Hack a movie, Tony, you fucking lazy piece of shit.
Okay, what are our problems?
Problems are censoring the user.
Okay.
Censoring the user?
That's kind of...
Censoring user comments.
No, it was silencing the user.
Silencing the user?
We can't say anything. Sounds like a Kraftwerks band. Oh, that's kind of cool. Silencing the user. Silencing the user? We can't say anything.
Sounds like a
Kraftwerks band.
Oh, that's kind of cool.
Silencing the user.
I like it.
I like silencing the user.
All right.
What's the other one?
Woke unions.
Woke unions.
Okay, mine are
family court.
RIP low tank.
That really has had me
bummed out all week.
I know, me too.
And I didn't even know the guy
Yeah I did
You knew
You actually had spoken to him
And knew him
To me it was just like
Yeah I text him every once in a while
That reminds me of a time
In my life
When everything seemed good
It was weird too
Because I had this weird sense
Of like well the internet's dead
And now he's dead
Yeah
It's
I mean
There's nothing about the internet
Well also just to look at
What happened to him
And I'm like
At the end of his life
He was streaming to 30 people eating sausages.
Doesn't the man deserve more for everything he gave us?
Yes.
Yeah.
And the worst part is that everybody just runs with this, like, he's a domestic abuser
shit as though it's fucking fact.
Yeah.
Because they're all young and kids And they don't understand how complicated
Relationships are
And women lying is
Women are liars
Yeah
And exaggerate
So
Well he might have backhanded a lady once
Does that mean
But even if he did
Might have given her a smack
Might have given her a little smack there
But sometimes you gotta keep your lady in line
No come on
Family court in shitty slow motion.
There you go.

He grabbed a little boy's head
today. Did you see that? It smelled good, apparently.
That's what I've learned from Biden.
He just loves the smell of children.
He grabs his head like in Hereditary,
the movie, like a demon coming out
through the headboard, grabbing this little boy's head i just wanted to smell what his shampoo smells like we don't care
why you're doing it just stop stop it knock off kids bro i'm kissing them and shit uh okay
trump never kissed a kid i'll say that that's a positive what's the draw do you hit like 50
years old and all of a sudden you want to love kids
he's from that generation where children are the future or something
the pedophile generation yeah that's what they all were no from 1957 to 1960 then you have a
fuck about yeah today we need kids because we have this fucking ponzi scheme called social security so crank out kids hey vito hey dick hi i got a biggest problem for you guys it's modern web pages you remember back
in the day when a web page would just load yes it wouldn't it wouldn't load anything else it would
just everything would load and that was it yeah nowadays we've got web pages
that load the url box it shows it's not it's done everything's loaded yeah but then the web page
itself continues to load all these different elements and graphics and things because yeah
i don't know why it's like because they're optimizing it for speed because of google
has turned into a unique piece of software now that you're downloading on your computer and using.
You remember you used to be able to...
This is downloading HTML.
...look at different things.
It would load new pages, right?
And then if you saw a cool article about it, you'd copy the URL and send it to a friend, you know, just like Control-C.
We're going to be talking about this in a rest home
someday.
Remember when there were websites?
Remember when?
Websites?
Remember when there was a website?
Slideshows, pictures,
what have you. I don't know.
YouTube video.
Same thing with YouTube.
Remember when it was YouTube?
Just watch the video now.
It's something entirely different because you browsing in the web page.
All right, all right, all right.
Yeah, I remember that.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Here's another one.
Hey, Dick.
Hey, Vito.
You know what I got a problem with?
Bad sandwich metaphors. I heard you guys do one of these like last week, I think. Someone will describe something as a shit sandwich, but then they will describe it as in it's shit on either side of a good thing. That is a compliment sandwich with shit bread and everyone does this
it's fucking crazy that people don't seem to
understand a conceptual
sandwich
I get it I get what he's saying
I don't get it
shit sandwich should be
something shitty hidden inside
the bread
a shit sandwich is like a turkey sandwich
around something good
No
A compliment sandwich
Is
Not an edible sandwich
It's like
When you have two compliments
Around something crappy
In the middle
Right
So a shit sandwich
Should be two shitty things
Around one good thing
Or at least
A good thing wrapped in a bad
thing well according to this guy yeah but it's not i don't think you're gonna think that hard
about it i don't know is this really a sticking point for you the shit sandwich metaphor yeah
he gets really okay with it i usually understand what people are talking about
okay here's another i don't use that phrase though i never use shit sandwich i don't know
me either never what about that what's that phrase uh nothing burger that's the worst i've used that
i use it about covid only covid yeah it's the day where did that come from the day lockdown
what is a nothing burger uh it's just bread yeah but like who came up with that term all right
i don't know.
Why don't you call it a nothing sandwich?
That uses bread.
What about a nothing sandwich?
What about a nothing hoagie?
I don't know.
It's a real nothing hoagie.
All right, here you go.
Here's another favorite who calls in from time to time. No, not this fucking guy.
It's a different guy, isn't it?
It's real much old man Manny Savage.
It's now or never. Don't be cool It's a real macho man, Randy Savage. It's now or never.
Don't be cool by playing the imposter's voicemail.
See, it's a real one.
Oh, the real one called it.
The imposter's in with my blue suede shoes.
We're going to shake, rattle, and roll all over the place.
It's Elvis.
I'm going to put him in the headlock.
Wait, is it Macho Elvis?
Yeah.
And we're going to do the jail? Yeah. It's Elvis.
This is an Elvis impression.
See?
Why does he sound like Macho Man?
He doesn't.
He sounds like Elvis Presley.
Alright, alright.
I don't get this bit.
It's Elvis.
How is that Elvis?
It's clearly Macho Man.
He's talking about all of his songs.
But he's saying it as Macho Man.
No, he's talking about his songs.
He's Elvis talking about going to the chapel and return to sender.
Blue suede shoes.
These are Elvis songs.
I don't know what the songs are.
I'm saying that Elvis
Sounded like
Ooh
Thank you very much
He had a very
Sounds the same
No he's got a gravelly
Macho man
They're different voices
He's saying Elvis
Was not a macho
Man
Not necessarily
He was more of a
Incel
He hated women
And they wronged him
All the time
And he talked about it
And sang about it
Well don't marry a 14 year old he was like oh you're
the devil in disguise
okay one more
hey KVO here's a
maybe two problem okay
this is
schools handling of
serious events or serious problems
so there's this new thing in
the news right now where this girl
had reported rate a rape incident and um the the guy that was reported that did it you know the
other student they cops interviewed him he confessed to he got charged and then the school
suspended her over it and they refused to comment if anything just makes me think you know think back to my
own time when i was in school and you know uh repeatedly the school would uh throw me in and
out of uh of like detention just for fighting back i've had instances where you know bullies
yeah you can't fight your bully back you're both responsible for food on me you know and start
hitting me out of nowhere
because you were a nerd
yeah because you suck
that's why
where did you go to school
oh wow thank you
the kid barely got anything
and then I got like three weeks of in school
suspension
schools don't really keep they stress this whole thing for reporting a kid and bullying and everything
for even standing up for themselves well there's an easy solution to that you're to teach uh kids
anything they're just here to just give more money to fucking teach no they're all idiots
yeah man anyways go fuck yourself As I always say to anyone
in American high school,
in American middle school,
whatever it is,
elementary school,
bring a gun to school.
That's my standard advice.
There's nothing but benefits.
Yeah.
Your female classmates
will learn to respect
and love you.
Yeah.
Your male classmates
will learn to respect
and fear you.
And that's what you want.
An armed society is a better society.
Yeah.
No matter, it's not like only 18.
Don't worry about, you know, you probably.
It's all society.
You got acne, you're a little too short, you're not good at basketball.
All that goes away when you start bringing a gun to school.
Okay.
So think about it.
Take that to heart.
Here's the last voicemail.
Yeah, of course you're going to play that one.
Peter's a fucking idiot. God damn it.
I want headphones attached to my phone.
Said like a man who's never worked out
a fucking day in his life. I worked out
with fucking headphones.
They knock out the first
fucking time you go to pick something up.
You're a fucking idiot.
You can use a fucking
He's saying your headphones fall out when you
work out all your shit falls out you catch a weight on it and your phone goes scattering
across the gym and your ear things fall out and get all tangled up and another guy's ear things
and then your two guys are getting all sweaty and your fucking air pods fall out or whatever
no they don't fall out i've had i've never had any problems i've been to a fucking gym and i
used headphones and whatever i go on a been to a fucking gym and I used headphones
I go on a run with a headphone cord
And it's like rubbing all over
And catching on my stuff
It's a huge pain in the ass
Regardless you can have wireless headphones
That use a USB fucking thing
You shouldn't be allowed to have the other kind
You can just use bluetooth at that point
I still want the jack
For other fucking purposes What if i want to plug
it into like a speaker and the speaker ruin a party yeah okay ruin a party here's super chats
we have mike hunt infamous lolly artist shad man was arrested on charges of assault with a deadly
weapon i thought you two would want to know i think i think he already bailed out oh did he yeah when i read the thing

with a deadly weapon they tried to get me on those charges one time they said i tried to hit a cop
with my car i got charged with assault well no they did the same thing ralph got they dropped
the charges immediately though yeah it was assault with a deadly weapon on a police officer.

it looks like shit and i don't want to call the ai call it interpolating something it's not fucking
ai and i don't want any i don't want any kind of fucking algorithm around it. I want it to be actually on film.
No, they got a little Haley Joel Osment robot that does it.
He goes in individually and paints every frame.
I don't want to be the last guy on Earth
that knows that what I'm looking at is not real.
That's what I'm looking at.
In the future, being 100 years old,
going to a movie and thinking,
none of this is real.
How can you guys not fucking tell
that all of this is made by a computer?
You could just have a human do it, though i was gonna bring it up before you know that kick from uh return of the jedi or uh luke skyward supposed to be kicking a guy on the sand skiff and
he misses him by like 20 feet yeah and somebody on uh youtube made like a whole tutorial i was
like you can just like you know use blur and whatever to make his kick his leg a little longer
okay it looks
convincing you can just do stuff like that now i can i can tell shut up you can't fucking tell
uh it was as a benjamin gibson and the patriot held the flag and charged the british officer
i thought it was pretty cool isn't some slow-mo warranted if it's not shot i don't think he
understands the problem you have to shoot at the. You have to shoot at the right frame rate.
You have to shoot
at the right frame rate
or else you slow it down
and it jerks
and you just see the frames
that are paused on
for longer than it should be.
You have to double the frame rate.
You have to run the film,
what, quicker, right?
Okay.
That's it.
