Hello and welcome to another episode of Who Are These Podcasts I'm Kevin and I'm Carl
and we listen to podcasts so you don't have to.
We want to remind our listeners you could visit us on WhoAreThese.com or on our Facebook
page.
We're always looking for a new podcast suggestion so leave us a comment, our post a death
threat or just whatever, email us, whatever.
And today's show will be reviewing a show called All-Sorted, a podcast about Lego.
As always, we have listened to the episode separately. We've not discussed it with each other
beforehand, so without further ado, let us find out once and for all. Who are these podcasts?
It's show time. That's all cheeky. W-H-E-P-E everybody. In the bowl.
Wait.
Eh.
W-H-E-P-E-L.
Hey.
What's up?
What is happening, Kevin?
We listen to a podcast about wanting your favorite things.
Yes, we did.
These guys talk about, are you want to say Legos or you have to say Lego?
It's Lego. It's like deer.
Like they're the plural of deer.
I never did that.
And they did not say Lego.
So I figured, I guess I named my clips,
Rognon. I hope I didn't offend you.
You did. I renamed them all just for posterity.
So it's all caps.
LEG. Oh, do they stand for something?
Uh, I don't know. I guess I don't know the history of it, but uh, actually
Prado. Yeah. No, I do know that yeah, that it's the proper way is is Lego.
There's no plural to it. So I did not know. I see I'm already learning new
shit about this. So we listen to a show about uh, Lego, and's no plural to it. So I did not know. I see I'm already learning new shit about this. So
we listened to a show about Lego and this was a suggestion from a listener.
Kevin's talked a couple of times. He's hinted about that he's into Lego.
And so I'm very interested to get your take on this show, Kevin. What'd you think?
show, Kevin, what did you think? Well, I didn't get necessarily care for the hosts, but there was some good information in here. Okay, mainly there's a new
line coming out that I'm very excited about that they talked about in here. So
yeah, I just went out and told my girlfriend and she was like, I don't fucking care. That's the right answer.
Yeah, so...
So, the find that they're coming out with, I guess I missed that part.
Well, it's like last week we talked about, I got a, I went to Tucson Comic-Con and I got
a co-ber commander, Pop vinyl, which I posted on the website. Who are these?
And the pop vinyls are just little like,
I don't know, vinyl statues or whatever, right?
So I was like ready to pull a trigger like,
because they got everything.
They got the fucking golden girls.
I mean, they have every ridiculous license
these things you can think of.
Do you buy a clipper commander and they have the golden girls?
Yes. Well, they have the golden girls.
They have all four of them. Yeah, you can get those, you can get pretty much anything that you like, you can get in a fucking pop version.
So I was right, I'm like, I don't want to collect these things, I don't want to do it, I'm 40 years old but I somehow can't. I don't have self control. I'm excited to help you.
Yeah.
So they were talking about Lego now has a new line
called blockheads with a Z at the end, blockheads.
And they're basically Lego's version of Funko Pop Final.
So it's, but I believe they're made out of Lego.
So it's like they've got all the licenses that Lego has
They're gonna have these little figures
And they're like blocky like in a Lego or whatever so I'm like I have like I put I pop 60
Bones yeah, but who are the characters? It's just random things or is it no?
I mean they have Marvel license. Oh, you know scooby-doo
They have shit on Star Wars. I mean you name it. They've got a license for a little Lego
Not quite as much as
Funko, I mean there's some obscure ass shit and Funko. You're like really?
There's like the fucking monkey from Wizard of Oz at its own, you know, like the
flying monkey. Like it's just they have everything. So I'm just excited that
Lego is basically trying to enter into this market because Funko is rolling in
cash because these fucking things are everywhere. You go and they talk about
never heard of this. I was googling it right now, this is all news to me.
Okay, by the way, I went to your cover commander
on our website, that is pretty sweet.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, Funko, Funko has, they have other lines,
but the pop vinyl is by far their biggest seller.
If you go into any toy store,
and they actually say the exact same thing on this
podcast like they're everywhere. You go Walmart target. I mean you go through the fucking
express line or whatever and there's a whole like section of pop vinyls and the like impulse
by thing. Like they're everywhere now. So I'm yeah really excited about these stupid
blackhead things. I can't believe it. I can't believe it's too excited. I'm looking at
their website right now. I couldn't be more fucking bored. Like I'm
like really I'm gonna get a Pac-Man keychain. Oh I want that actually. Pass. I want
the Pac-Man shit. This is dumb., you know what I bet you they have a distro they probably have a distro
Fine oh wait, how's it? They have Aaron Rodgers. I'm back in
sweet
I was thought you were gonna say Aaron Neville. I was hoping that they had an
Thank you very much
and then I'm gonna have a little problem. Well, thank you very much.
No, I'm very excited about this.
I told my girlfriend and she said,
her words and I quote,
now we're gonna have these fucking Lego things
all of her else.
So I said, yeah, I'll try to keep them
into my office only.
You know who just popped 60 boners is Visa. Yeah exactly.
I'm gonna be charging all the shit, I'm gonna get the bill. Oh God, I know it's
something wrong with me but now I've gone through you know many many a phase
with toys and shit in a lot of it, and I think the reason that the Funko
thing is do so well is that's like the member bearies thing. Everybody loves nostalgia,
and they capitalize on that by releasing shit I remember big trouble a little chowder. I remember Jack Burton
member the goo with green eyes
member Lopan
So yeah, yeah, this is
It was good information for me to to hear this because I bet out of the Lego loop if you will for
Doing our podcast at some point. Oh, yeah to hear this because I bet out of the Lego loop, if you will, for for
doing our podcasts at some point. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're just
having a boring conversation.
Okay, fascinating.
Well, I'm glad that you enjoyed the episode that it gave you, I
agree with you. So the hosts are Jeff and James, they're Canadians.
Yeah.
And they're mostly boring people.
I have a clip that I want to get started with.
I think this best represents the show.
Play Track 9.
That's right, or you can take the head from Iron Man
and build like a squirrel girl, Tipeetoo Iron Man suit, which was featured. If you're not by the way, if you're not reading
the unbeatable squirrel girl as a comic, you should be. Maybe I was talking about.
Or these started talking about reading the unbeatable squirrel girl comic. So these are two
grown ass madden who do a podcast. They actually do three podcasts together.
I don't know how much research you did on these guys.
I didn't know, I didn't do anything.
So they do another show called Epic Gum Drop
and then they do one called Breaking Dads.
Oh, yeah, I remember hearing about the Breaking Dads thing.
Well, that's their website is breakingdads.com.
Okay. Here's the deal.
Here's the deal with this Breaking D's thing. These two guys talk about parenting because they're both stay at home
dads. Is that a thing in Canada? Stay at home dad? That's funny. And now listen,
you're buying these toys, your girlfriends annoyed by it, but at least you
fucking earned your own paycheck to buy these toys. These assholes are buying Legos with their wife's money. Yeah, that is a little ridiculous.
That shit doesn't go down here in the States. I would best it wouldn't fly down here.
Once you cross the mighty Lake Ontario, it's like, no, you gotta earn your shit, earn your keep.
Well, I don't know what part of Canada they're from I was trying to pick up on the accent
They weren't real Canadian sounding I wish they were I would have what had some fun with that
Well, I didn't realize that they were Canadian because at one point they they say it
but they they do a lot of
mispronunciations on things
one of which I thought was was kind of amusing as They do a lot of mispronunciations on things.
One of which I thought was kind of amusing is,
they were talking about the architecture LEGO sets.
So they have like different monuments and things
that you could buy like the space needle
and a cap of building and shit.
So he, I don't know if you caught this,
but he talks about at one
point the flat-tron building and if you meet being from the states you're in
New York you're in New York state you've been in New York City as a guy. There
is no flat-tron building as the flat-out here in building. I had no idea what they were talking about that's funny.
Here's a quick clip. No you don't see like your daughter's not going to take like this space
needle and the flat-tron building and develop a narrative about how they go shopping.
Yeah her friend's Mac is not going to attack the space needle.
So I just thought that was kind of funny. I'm like, oh yeah, these guys are not from here.
Yeah, the other guy did not catch that either.
That's funny.
That's flat-ron.
It's like he left out a whole fucking letter.
Why was that even,
that's why I didn't even understand
what the fuck he was talking about.
Right, well I mean, if you look it up,
if you Google flat-iron,
it is written as one word.
It's like, it does look like flatron, but I mean obviously
You know that the reason that was called bad is because it's wedge-shaped. It looks like an iron. I mean that was level right point of it, but
I don't know why we're just crazy Americans with the hell we know
All right Kevin. I got a I got a quiz for you. Okay
All right, I want you to play
Track two and see if you can tell me what he's describing here
Hoping your fingers lead the way to victory which my fingers never ever do
There are people out there with that just magic ability within 30 seconds to know what's inside of it with 100% certainty
Yeah, whereas I'm always trying to convince myself like no
No, maybe this is the one
Okay, do you know what he's describing? I know exactly what he's describing. Yes. All right, so the answer is he can determine some was gender through digital anal penetration
Right, they got off of that topic
Got off on a little sidetrack there, but I was very impressed by that.
I must have been beaten off during that time. They're next part of the podcast for these blockheads.
They're talking about buying these mini figures. Yes. And let's introduce that whole concept. Play
track three on here. The first two series had a secondary barcode on the back of the package, so you knew
what many figure was inside the bag. That way if you wanted to get specific one or if you wanted to
build an army of ninjas, you could do that. For series three and four they replaced the easy
to read barcode with a series of braille-like bumps which made it harder but still helpful.
And I know for me I would just make sure I had 12 different sequences of bumps and I
knew or 16 different sequences of bumps.
I knew I had the whole series.
That made it easy.
You're that nerd.
So this is something I have no idea.
I'm sure you know all about this.
Yeah.
They sell those shitty little Lego characters.
Okay.
Okay. In these bags that you can't see what you're buying. Yes. Yeah, they sell those shitty little Lego characters. Hey, hey, okay.
In these bags that you can't see what you're buying.
Yes.
And you have to pay four bucks for one of these shitty
little characters, which seems outrageous to me.
You go even know what you're getting.
So you might just get one year already have
or something you don't give a shit about.
And this has been going on there up to like the 18th
series of these.
Yeah, yeah.
So this, all right, let me get off on my, uh, my
channel. I don't feel like you're gonna explain this to me. So this is actually what I
collect. Like I have a call Lego sets, but I mostly collect the mini fakes, which are
the little, you know, the little Lego characters, if you will. You might be interested in
no or not that I have the entire series series one of the Simpsons so I have all
of the Simpsons characters. How did you collect those? Well it's you Bay and just
buying directly or did you buy shitty fucking mystery bags and hope that you got
you know you hope you didn't get Lisa a little bit of both I had multiple
leases let's put it that way so yeah so I'm gonna take over this whole
pack of podcast of this Lego talk but I'm trying to keep it brief so it's not
fucking boring but yeah I actually gonna go make myself a snack.
I'll be back.
So yeah, you, you, um, part of the, the, uh, lure, a lure, if you will, of these things,
is that you don't know what you're getting. Uh, so people take it to the most
ridiculous degree where they put guides online for how you should feel the bag and for what you should
feel for.
So like, if you were going for-
I saw that.
If you're on the ship.
Alright, what do we have to about the 14th of the bug?
Feel the bag.
No, so if you were looking for a Marge Simpson
The guide might say hey feel around for her hair because her hair is big
You know like that kind of thing
I thought you were toy store am I gonna see a bunch of adults feeling bags?
Yes, if you ever ever gone to the Lego store
Just gotta do that. If you ever go to the Lego store in the mall you will see there's usually a big bin of
Just gotta do that. If you ever go to the LEGO store in the mall, you will see there's usually a big bin of
these packages and you will see grown-ass men like me in their feeling each of them.
I don't do that.
I just grab a bunch and just buy them because I don't care.
Oh, I'm way cooler than those people are.
So yeah, that's how I built a lot of of there's a secondary Lego market, so there's like
Lego stores that aren't like official like you know mom and pops Lego store you can go in there and buy them
I bought a few that I was missing at the Tucson Comic Con
Either weekend a couple weekends go so
That's yeah, that's my thing. I collect these things, you try to get all the sets.
So Kevin, I'm in marketing as my profession.
And I can't believe that part of the allure of buying
is that you don't know what you're gonna get.
That's fucking genius.
I wish I could figure that out.
I wish I could sell products to people
that they didn't know what they were gonna get.
And by the way, it might suck.
Give me your money.
Well, that's it genius. I gotta say, Lego didn't create that. There is a shit ton of toys
that are called blind bags. So there's tons of toys like this where you don't know what
you're going to get and that's like there's like Marvel heroes and shit like that. So
they're blind bags or boxes that you just buy,
because they're collectible.
So you wanna, all right, so,
let me just break this down for my fellow marketers out there.
This is what you call the target audience of dummies.
Who's the audience for this product?
Fucking dumb dumb.
So you just wanna depart with their money.
All right, great.
There's a lot of those people.
Let's do it.
Pretty much it.
That's me.
All of this talk about bags and feeling bags.
I feel like I have to segue.
OK.
Our Jingles department got very excited last week
because we read one of our iTunes, a new iTunes review
on the air. And the iTunes review was talking about one of our iTunes, a new iTunes review on the air.
And the iTunes review was talking about one of the shows that we reviewed.
And they said that I quote, they aren't a run of the mill podcast by two bag slappers out of couch.
And firing the coveted eye are sitting on a couch slapping our bags.
So the jingles department got very excited about this.
I have a couple of new Jinkles.
Kevin, if you don't mind, would you play
the Beach Baby Jingle Forest, please?
Sure.
Sure. That's why the band is called the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best
rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the best rap and the uh that's the original song is by the the beach bag boys right
exactly I didn't even know that song and that's fitted by fucking had all now and bag slap is bag slap slap and will bag
I can't really
oh and then and so so that's a lot of fun and then
it didn't stop there the jiggle's part was so excited that we're bag slappers
that they created this this little piece to a famous 007 theme go ahead and play that one There's a man, a man who's left and right On the couch, such a cold figure Laughing bags and touching their pockets
All at Kevin Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Why is the jiggle department assume we have four skins?
I think it just worked with the original side. Oh, all right, okay.
I do have just an ISO out here, so in case you ever want to remind people that we're bag slappers,
you can play that quick ISO.
So the Jingles department earning their paycheck this week. So I want to remind people, go ahead and give us a review on iTunes.
We'll likely talk about that on our show and maybe even record songs based on what you
have to say.
And you know what would be the best thing everyone out there can do?
Give us five stars and then mother fuck us in the review.
That'll confuse the hell out of people.
No one would say what you're talking about.
Like think of something that you want us to riff about.
Make fun of us for it.
We'll make some songs.
But give us five stars because the people see that we have 2.3 stars
as the average review,
they might not check out the show. Yeah, yeah, that'd be a bummer. Yeah, it's like opposite day. So
if you hate the show, give us five stars. Yes, and if you love the show, give us five stars. Yeah, You have your marching.
All right, getting back to this LEGO show. Yeah.
So we were talking about how you get these mystery minifigs.
Right?
Am I using the terminology right?
Yes, you are.
Awesome.
So there is a certain character named Mr. Gold who is scarce. And they talk about him
for a while. Play Track 4. If you had four grams of pure gold, it would only be worth about $200.
So Mr. Gold is worth more than his weight in gold. That's an impressive amount of money for that thing.
A piece of plastic.
That's bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-A-N-N-A-N-A-N-A that song like that. Yeah, he does a pretty good, Gwen Stefani, that guy.
He does, yeah.
Pretty good.
So they're talking about this figure and how it's like winning the lottery if you get him
because you can sell it.
And I did some research on eBay and I saw him going for $3,000, the shitty Mr. Gold
minifig.
Yeah, yeah.
Kevin, please tell me you don't have Mr. Gold, Mini-Fig. Yeah, yeah. Please, some of you don't have Mr. Gold.
If I did, I would say so, but I do not have him.
I've never tried to get him because he's way too rare
to try to get.
So yeah, no, I do not have him.
And I'm envious, I wish I did,
because there would be awesome to have one
that was worth that much money
I did however have hot dog man
And that was kind of a scarce one. I'm listening. I'm listening three hot dog men
So I had I had some duplicates of that. I've actually was able to sell a lot of those things for you know double what I paid for them on
An eBay so so you sold it for $8 each.
Yeah, yeah, eight to 10 bucks.
Yeah, you know, I don't want to fucking waste a time.
I get a man, you know, why don't you unload something that's worth $8?
Oh, believe me, I do a lot.
I do.
Sweet.
I want to get on your eBay.
What would that be called your store, your ebay store?
Yeah, no, I'm not selling any at this point because you know, I got rid of all my duplicates, but
well good. I have $8 a spend. Yeah, I know. I figured you didn't. So
you're saving up for the blockheads, right? When they come out, you're gonna get those.
Actually, this whole time that we've been doing the show. I'm just browsing the Funko website.
Yeah.
Do you find any of the likes?
They have a full one.
My shopping cart is full.
Oh, I bet.
Yeah, I wonder if this takes it.
They have a category called the vote where where you can get, uh, you can get the pop Bernie Sanders,
Donald Trump, or Hillary Clinton. Oh, I like that. Bernie made the last. That's awesome.
We know that vote ends, right? I would have to pick up a couple of those.
You're going to be a whole new, uh, group of new group of videos with like girls who are buying
the Trump Funko and then using it to get off. I don't know. Yeah, actually, actually
are already videos of that. It's on who are these comms? Go ahead and check it out. There's
cam girls who exclusively masturbate with Donald Trump, uh, uh, drop vitals.
The hair is a, it's just angle just right that it hits the G's butt.
I think a bobblehead would work better.
Oh, that might be a little too wobbly.
But you know, you got a spring inside there.
I don't know how safe that is.
Oh, fucking, I'm going to Google it.
Let's see.
Is there a Camgirl with a bobblehead?
Well, it's funny because the, Cobra Commander what I have is very
phallic because it's the helmet that he's wearing.
But so I I just googled cam girl with a Bob lad and it came up cam Newton's
Bob lad fuck you Google. No, look for cam Newton. No one wants Cam Newton. This search engine sucks. Let's get back to this Lego show. I'll sort it. All right. I have a clip here. Okay. Go ahead. No, I was gonna say do you have any question any more questions for me?
This is fun. I know. I have lots of questions. Okay. I have a question like who side is this guy on play track seven?
Yeah, and that would really suck if you're like a ten-year-old kid that saved up their allowance and paperoo money for months to buy the set
And you couldn't get it on the day they set it out because a bunch of adults had bought as many as they were allowed to carry out of the store and that's weird
This fucking adult is talking about how adults buy Lego and that's weird. This fucking adult is talking about how adults
buy Lego and that's weird.
Is he a fucking retard?
Yeah, what he doesn't know is that, you know,
kids who save up their paper out money
and shit like that, they're buying the greed.
They're not buying Lego.
I love this guy.
He's such a fucking noob.
In his mind, there's 10 year old kids who are saving up their money to go by Lego action figures.
It's just not fucking happening.
The only people are buying this nonsense is Kevin.
Well, yeah.
Unfortunately, yes.
I'm the one that's keeping that company afloat.
I think I have a track called
These guys have sarcasm down so Jeff is the guy who talks the entire time and then James just chimes in with his little witty
sarcastic remarks. Here's a example of that at
No point. Do I think children's best interests are in mind when you're creating a frenzy on a collectible
That's Canadian sarcasm. What?
Think of the children. And then Kevin, when these guys start joking around,
watch out because there are a couple of cards. I might have sweetened this a little bit of play
track six. I think people worry a lot about, you know, silly things like this,
homey apocalypse, but I worry about Lego many figures gaining sentience
They gain some kind of artificial intelligence were done for
I don't know because their heads are tiny
So there's only there would be I think an instinct based
Intelligence right and I don't know some large neural networks are gonna create with their one
They're one neuron each yes
Be more funny!
Oh Homer was in the crowd when they were talking.
Yeah, that's the show fucking sucks.
These guys are so boring.
I have a clip of them trying to be funny too.
Here we go.
Alright.
Looks cool.
Yeah.
They go in your cubicle.
Which is total, oh man, if you had a cubicle with like a Darth Maul bust made out of leg
I don't disappear you'd have to put put glass bolted to the table your boss would come by I'd be like
Yeah, so we've been hearing a lot of talk about your alien head, but your dark side
I'm gonna have to ask you to take that home. Okay
Yeah, I'm G Could that ask you to take that home. Okay. Ooh.
Yeah.
Grangee.
Could that have fallen any flatter?
Yeah.
That was a fucking training bra, Vajoke.
It's a flat as you get.
Is this flat as the flat-tron building in New York City?
Yeah.
Exactly.
So, one of the things that the main premise of this episode is this idea that
Lego has gone from being a toy company to making collectibles.
And the whole point is that they keep talking about, there's no play value.
You know, when they were talking about the buildings
and they're talking about Darth Maul's bust,
they're like, there's no play value.
It's just a sculpture at the end of it.
So as a Lego guy, I didn't realize
you were more into the mini-fake.
So maybe this isn't the right question for you, Kevin,
but isn't building the fucking thing, the playing part?
Isn't it like a 3D puzzle?
I thought that's what Lego was. Well yeah, but they
they try to build them as something that a kid could play with when it's built. But here's my point
okay and maybe I'm too far gone from this time in my life but if you're going to play with action figures or you know I used to have GI Joe's
and and Star Wars guys and you'd have like the Death Star or whatever. If you were going to play
with that shit wouldn't you want one that wasn't shitty and blocky and like those fucking action
figures are the worst their hands are these fucking weird cup shaped things. It doesn't make any sense.
They don't look like people. Why would you play with
fucking Lego toys? I thought the whole point of Lego was to build shit. Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
I think kids are really... I think you and I are probably gonna agree to disagree. Yeah, probably.
I mean, obviously, I don't, you know, sit down with my mystery machine that I built and fucking
drive it around and be like, zoinks! You know, and do shit like that, but I don't you know sit down with my mystery machine that I built and fucking drive it around and be like
Zoinks, you know and do shit like that, but I don't know that that's true
In fact, I have a clip on here that I thought of you
Play track 10. I always imagine you gig thing as you build these
Yeah, that's I picture you like you're in your I don't know the closet I think is where you're probably are building these Lego
Your girlfriend's probably yellow I got you stop building Lego. Yeah, pay attention to me. No, it's I
No, I don't giggle with him. I might
Am I build them naked? I might be naked while I do it, but that's not weird
Alright, moving out. So next week, we're going to do another show.
I do have an ISO of the noise that this guy makes
while he's playing with Legos.
Go ahead and play that track.
Oh, what?
Oh, that's what I should do.
You're doing, like you open up your mini figs and you're like
Oh
Skate skate skate no I
I don't even know what to say to that. I just yeah I
I
Went to the the Comic Con a couple weeks ago
I bought a couple ones that I do that I was missing and when I got back here because my lovely girlfriend went with me, believe it or not, to the
comic-con, Busser Heart and when we got back I proceeded to dump out the
Tupperware box of all the mini-figs that I had
and compared them and contrasted them and figured out what I had and what I
didn't have and yeah I don't know why I'm I'm still in a relationship after
this was your was your girlfriend a power ranger or wonder woman what did she
dress up as she didn't dress as anything no okay yeah no we didn't we didn't
dress up so Kevin I have a clip on here that is right from the beginning of the show where they talk about
How Legos started making collectibles?
Play track one
Everybody knows the Legos started out as a toy company by a family that loved to produce high quality products and
Burn-down buildings
But in recent years it looks more and more like Lego is dropping the toy
side of production and replacing it with collectibles. All right, so that's the premise of the show. Now,
did you know about this building burning down? No, I didn't understand what they were talking about here.
So what much later in the show, they refer to it again. Play Track 8.
What much later in the show, they refer to it again. Play Track 8.
So, they do have a history of their houses burning down.
It's hilarious.
There it is.
I call that factories burning down is still hilarious.
Like, how many people died in that?
What was the damage done?
Why are they giggling about a building burning down?
And how is that possibly funny?
I can, it's probably horrific. Could you imagine all that plastic melting?
Ah, and people.
That's plastic is fucking disgusting.
Yeah, there's some poor guy like trapped under a slab of fucking Lego
Death Stars melted all over him.
Nuh, tell my kids I love the book.
You know what I have to say about that. Play the other ISO I have.
Which one?
This one?
Oh.
The other one.
Hey.
The other ISO in my clip bin there.
Oh, that's awesome.
That one?
Yeah, that's awesome. That one?
Yeah, that was the one.
Seabullus!
We are professional podcasters.
You sure wasn't this one?
Don't forget to review us on iTunes.
Do you go to Who are these?
Jacka.
Wotwot.
These guys use the stupidest sound effects. Let me tell you, all right?
Who's fucking bag slappers?
He's a stupid sound effects.
Bag slapper.
That's us.
There's a couple of bag slappers.
Sure are.
So Kevin, the big question, and they wrap up the show
with the big question of the episode track 11
So what do you guys think has Lego began to lose their way?
Are they still a toy company that makes some collectibles or are they now a collectible company that makes some toys?
Who gives a shit who gives a fuck
Steve like we couldn't have said it better
Steve Langford couldn't have said it better. It was a shit.
And I know that you like Lago, but you got to agree that the premise of this episode
was fucking retarded.
Yeah.
Well, it's a staff.
Yeah.
It's stupid all together to have a podcast about this topic in my opinion.
However, I did learn something new.
So that was kind of good.
I didn't realize that there was these blockhead things coming out.
Got a big old boner on that one.
But we're still talking about that.
I'm very excited, very excited about that.
But yeah,
I think covered this episode, Kevin, is that we, we've listened to a lot of podcasts.
Now a lot of really shitty podcasts.
This one had the worst podcast music of any of the shows
we've listened to. I have a clip on here called Worst Podcast Music. Until next time I've been James
and I'm still Jeff.
I'm a freaking omics song but without any of the gusto. A what song?
You ever listen to freaking omics?
No.
Oh, it kind of sounds like it starts off sounding like that and then it just goes fucking
nowhere.
It's like someone making mouth noises.
It's like the dude from police academy or something.
I think it sounds like somebody slapped on their bag, actually.
I wonder if our jiggles department can put something together to that beat.
Let's listen to it again.
It sounds like when I slap my bag.
Until next time, I've been James, and I'm still Jeff.
I think I don't know, it sounds right to me.
It's funny because I thought you said freaking onyx
Remember the band onyx that's what I thought you were talking about, you know
The what was their song it was like
Swamp voice make some noise and just and just slam
slam yeah
I like the guy who had sticky fingers
Like do you think chicken was he just banging a chick? Why does he have sticky fingers?
DICKY FINGERS. Oh God, why did he have to be eating chicken? Did you have to go there?
Because that's what gives you sticky fingers. Oh, okay. All right. What the fuck? I've been told by listeners of the show that especially last episode we got a little there's a little bit of racist stuff going on there towards the end and It prompted the person to very quickly turn down their radio while playing it in their
car.
You better be turning this down, yo.
Jesus.
Five stars, everybody.
Remember.
Five stars.
And don't forget to tell us all the things you hate about our show.
We can't wait to write jingles about it.
So Kevin, is there anything else you want to talk about as it pertains to LEGO or the
All-Sworded podcast?
Well, I mean, I can do another two hours talking about LEGO if you want, but...
No, I mean, I don't think...
I gotta watch the football game.
No, I think we've summed it up pretty good.
If you're a fan of Lego and you
Like me. I guess you'd like this podcast. I don't know. I didn't listen to any other episode, so I don't know what they talk about but I
Don't know Whatever I like
Breaking dads. I want to hear their take on parenthood. That's got to be fucking amazing
According to their website some of the topics will cover include child astronauts, the role of kids in horse racing, and lots of other
legitimate areas where we have no business providing our specific style of offhanded expertise.
Wacky!
We have kids in horse racing? What the fuck is that about?
I think that they're just trying to be, I don't know, they're so boring these people.
And I'm not talking about Canadians in general, but I kind of am.
You know what I mean?
Oh boy.
And we're gonna get some hate mail.
What's on that?
What'd you mean?
All Canadians are boring?
All right.
Quiet down Leon.
That's enough.
Oh god.
Sorry.
We have a co-host that pipes out from time to time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, Kevin, when we were doing our podcast last weekend, I found this clip of Dane Cook and
Chris Dottry singing the Growing Payne's theme on YouTube.
Right.
And it was the douche chileist clip ever. And we talked about maybe finding
the worst YouTube clips or just the doucheiest YouTube clips. We don't have to get into that
but I did want to play one that I found for you that is actually from 1977. Play my terrible YouTube clip number one.
Were you living out here? I live in West LA. I used to live in Santa Monica on the beach.
But right now I'm trying to work on a singing career and working on my own songs.
It's very hard to live in an apartment building and sing at 3.30 in the morning.
You write in your own songs? Yeah, good.
Or with a partner mind.
And so I moved to a house and I made the garage into a studio
and bought some primitive recording equipment
and working on some stuff.
That's the way to do it.
Yeah, it's a good way to get to know yourself
and to know what not to do and what to do.
Are you ready for your singing debut on our show?
No.
Come on, they'll love it.
I'll wing it.
And I love the song you've chosen.
Oh, thank you very much.
The theme from the young and the restless, and it's titled,
Nadiya's theme.
Nadiya's theme, right?
Right.
And here's David Hasselhoff to sing. When I hear people pine for the old days of television, that's from the Merv Griffin show.
That's fucking garbage. That's unwatchable television, right?
I love the build up to it because I'm like, who the fuck is this?
I thought you'd like that.
Sure, I'm thinking I'm like, is it fucking Charles Manson?
I'm like, who's that like a weird singing career or something.
That would be the Hasselhoff.
And I don't even know why he was famous back in 1977.
I mean, that's before Knight Rider and Baywatch,
what the fuck was this guy doing?
I think I'm just going to guess, but he probably was on a soap opera.
Like, that may have been where he started.
He is dreamy.
Yeah, he's, I have gotten lost in his eyes a few times. I'm German, so I can't help it a lovely guy. All right, Kevin, this has been,
this has had some ups and downs today, but we've had a lot of fun, you know, if we take the the average
and the good news is we're're gonna do this again next week.
All right.
Next week, we have a whole new podcast to review
and discuss.
I have a clip from said podcast
so that we can put out a little teaser
so that people get very excited about next week's show.
Go ahead and play the next week's teaser clip.
I'm always open for some tweets.
I don't know, that's not a desperate. next week's a pleasure.
Yeah.
Um, let's start off with the beer.
I'm gonna let you choose because I've been close to your eyes when you do the random
game again.
Alright, I'm closing my eyes.
Jamest is going to switch around the beers. Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do that damn drunk. So we listen to Lego, which is your passion. Now we get to listen to a show about my passion.
That damn drunk. It's episode 14 entitled Butchugging with Shamus.
Oh God.
These guys sit around and drink beer and record it.
I haven't listened to the whole thing. I haven't listened to much of it, but I have a feeling it's going to get terrible.
Butchugging. You know what that is, right? Well, I heard Richard Christy,
um, the Howard Stern show trying to guess what type of beer was being poured into his ass.
Is that what butchugging is? Is that a straws?
Ah, that one's a little bit hint of chocolate.
Ooh, that's kind of good.
I like it.
I like it.
Oh, now we're really unattached.
So, okay, so I guess there's just a couple of drunk dudes
or whatever.
I hope they don't do any butt chugging,
because that would be really gross to listen to.
As far as I thought butt chugging was like a new take, like kids were doing this. They would
take like a tampon and then they'd soak it in like vodka and then they put it
up their asshole and that's like you get you crazy drunk because it's I hope
that's what it is. Right. I hope so. That's what I want to hear all about.
I don't know how much more there is to talk about it.
I think I just laid it out there.
But where would you get the word chugging though out of that?
That doesn't sound like chugging.
If I'm shoving something up my asshole,
I'm not calling that chugging.
I'm going to call that butt inserting.
Yeah, but that doesn't roll off the tongue.
You know, you know, you'm gonna call that back up penetration
I'm gonna do some VP today Kevin when you
You want to VP of sales you guys want a vodka pen or what?
Yeah, no, that's it's I don't know if that's one of those urban legend things or if kids are actually fucking doing that because that's it seems I
Don't know I've never wanted to we're gonna find out all about it
And so will you at home if you listen to our episode next week of w a tp where we might find out what's it for all?
Who are these podcasts? Sleep well everybody! I'm a fool, I'm a fool
I'm a fool, I'm a fool
I'm a fool, I'm a fool I don't get it.
Makes no sense.
