1 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:17,679 Hello, everybody, Welcome back to the fire Escape Cast. It is episode 2 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:22,160 eighty nine. I'm Mike, your host is Always here with Dan. Hi, 3 00:00:22,399 --> 00:00:26,399 that's me. I'm also here. And Mary, you did it again. 4 00:00:26,719 --> 00:00:29,480 I didn't mean to sound disappointed. I meant to sound like a calming 5 00:00:29,559 --> 00:00:33,520 like, oh, there's Mary. Him Mary, go up and again, 6 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,119 try again, here, tride again. Here's always with Dan. Yeah, 7 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:46,840 Hey, what's up? And Mary? Mike, that was Mary, what's 8 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,240 up? I thought you were going to use the fart? So I feel 9 00:00:49,280 --> 00:01:06,200 fine. Let's let's here run it back and met Mary cash. Yeah. 10 00:01:06,439 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaking of stinks, So I don't believe I'm a stinky guy. I've never 11 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,280 been accused of being a stinky guy. You could tell me if I was. 12 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,599 And also, I'm not a sweaty guy. And so even when I'm 13 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,840 doing like cardio and stuff like I do long bike rides, I do a 14 00:01:19,879 --> 00:01:23,799 lot of like peloton biking stuff and everything and yoga, I don't sweat much. 15 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,319 And even if I do, I don't stink. Would there be a 16 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,560 reason that in this last month, since I started training for this half marathon, 17 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,879 I've noticed that I am like I need to be on top of it 18 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:40,560 because like I'm noticing like my stink and I never but I was doing cardio 19 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,319 before. I was like sweating and stuff before to a degree? Are you 20 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,439 more prone to sweat now sweating? No? Like all run like I did 21 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,200 like a five k a few days ago, and like I wasn't really sweaty 22 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,400 afterwards, but like I stink and I was like, and I don't notice 23 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:59,719 that bike ride diet is I guess I've been drinking less over the last few 24 00:01:59,799 --> 00:02:06,120 weeks. Just been eating my same like mail delivery food stuff, nothing crazy, 25 00:02:06,239 --> 00:02:10,599 fairly healthy over. I was in Philadelphia for a week and oh go 26 00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:15,520 on, I was, I ate several cheese steaks and now like half of 27 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,000 what I drink is prime water. I don't know what that is. You're 28 00:02:21,039 --> 00:02:28,520 drinking prime and you're wondering why you stink because it's not water. It's coconut 29 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,319 water. It's okay, look at the ingredients. I read articles from nutritionness. 30 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,680 What is what? Oh it's co water. Well. The unpleasant part 31 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,159 is it's owned by Logan Paul, So let's just skip let's skip past that. 32 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,879 He's not the guy in the lab putting beakers and stuff together. He's 33 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,759 just the right one that got Yeah, it's uh, it's very good. 34 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,919 I love her. He said it's coconut water. It's ten percent coconut water. 35 00:02:54,319 --> 00:02:58,439 I mean, is that not coconut water? Yeah, but lots of 36 00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:00,759 things can contain. I'm good. And then have a bunch of ship that 37 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,719 makes your butt stink. I bet coconuts aren't ten percent. Dan. If 38 00:03:05,719 --> 00:03:09,759 you made that drink the Jungle Bird tonight and you swapped out like ten percent 39 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,759 of the Kompari for coconut juice water, I would not call the drink coconut 40 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:20,639 water. The inclusion of ten percent not making coconut Okay, Well, I've 41 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:25,199 been looking at the ingredients and stuff. I've been into this. Now and 42 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:30,159 turn this into prime. Guys, you are into it. J grub Jan 43 00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:34,159 got into it a WrestleMania with me. We tried all the play. Oh 44 00:03:34,439 --> 00:03:38,080 grub got his kids into it today. A sticky thing. I don't think. 45 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,759 I think it's a running thing. The running would make more sense that 46 00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:44,680 Prime is good for you. I've been talking about it so much to people, 47 00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:46,879 think of to make it clear. It's not a mad spot. I 48 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:51,599 just love this ship. Now, wait, hold on, Mary, what 49 00:03:51,639 --> 00:03:59,960 else isn't it Okay, twenty calories, coconut water, b vitamins, antioxide 50 00:04:00,199 --> 00:04:03,120 and electual lights caffeine free. But that's hold on. You can get all 51 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:11,039 this from food. I agree. No citric acid. I don't trust food 52 00:04:11,479 --> 00:04:16,639 associated with Logan Paul, I hate this too. I hate it, but 53 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,720 I love it first. This has got a ship ton of chemis in it. 54 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:25,519 Yeah, chemicals are great, so to starbards in crime. OJ's all 55 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,199 of the news dance having a great week, so superlos. I might be 56 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,120 wrong. Let me look this up. A big OJ fan, Dan Simpson 57 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:36,279 is probably actually feel he's dead to start this bit. It's an artificial sweetener. 58 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,639 Yeah, I know. I mean most of what I need is artificial 59 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,560 sweet Mary. Did Dan call you crying last week when OJ died? Because 60 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,759 he called me, Uh, he was weeping and I was like, Dan, 61 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:57,759 what is wrong? I think I'll never heard another great norm joke about 62 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:04,120 him. Yeah that was normally not OJ. God, that joke that Jim 63 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:10,199 Downey was talking about the lucky murdering cat or cat the stabbing cap one's good. 64 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,279 Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yep, Hey 65 00:05:12,319 --> 00:05:15,639 be careful that that's my lucky stabbing cap. Have you ever seen any hosted 66 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,120 the sb Awards and uh, he was like, oh, you won the 67 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,959 Heisman. He's on stage hostings like, oh yeah, this guy won the 68 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,560 Heisman. Don't and be proud of that. And they can never take that 69 00:05:23,639 --> 00:05:29,160 away from you unless you murder your wife and a waiter and the Kim Grippy 70 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,120 in the crowd, and Kim Grippy is just like, hey, like, 71 00:05:31,199 --> 00:05:40,879 don't show me right now, and a waiter as an afterthought. Yeah, 72 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:45,279 so Prime is your new obsession. I mean, I'm drinking a lot. 73 00:05:45,319 --> 00:05:46,920 I'm gonna I'm gonna have a couple tonight. Yeah, I've had like five 74 00:05:46,959 --> 00:05:53,360 today. Maybe you are legend. Symptoms of Superlose can include floating gas, 75 00:05:53,399 --> 00:06:00,360 diarrhea, nausea, skin irritations, runny nose, anxiety, anger moods, 76 00:06:00,399 --> 00:06:05,519 depression, and stink butt shovel poles of superlos every day Since before Logan Paul 77 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,360 was fucking alive, it ain't the super Loose, And now you're paying him 78 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:19,040 to drink Superlos. I'll you're just sitting there drinking Prime and running and stink 79 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,560 sweating everywhere, and you're like, I have no idea where this stink is 80 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,360 coming from. And the only one thing you've changed is that you no longer 81 00:06:27,439 --> 00:06:31,560 drink water. I did go to Philadelphia, the city of Philadelphia for your 82 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,519 steak. Yeah, this is it's a nice city. It's a nice city. 83 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:39,959 Mostly. We'll say that the inclusion of dairy into your diet could also 84 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,839 be a thing. And if you're eating a lot of Philly cheese steaks, 85 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,600 that's a lot of But again, I'm eating ninety pounds of cheese every day 86 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,240 for my entire life, you know, so like that's not a new variable, 87 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,959 are you? Maybe your body can just no longer process all of time. 88 00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:56,519 Let's just be dying. Yeah, here's a question, are you because 89 00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:01,600 can I assume you're running more often than you ever have before? Uh? 90 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,040 Yeah, only at least in a while ten years ago. Going to the 91 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:11,759 last half, are you, how diligent are you with like laundry, with 92 00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:16,759 your workout clothes? Uh, with the workout clothes, I'll get a few 93 00:07:16,839 --> 00:07:21,800 in on some shorts. Definitely run. Maybe that's I'm saying, Maybe that's 94 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,560 where the stink, that's where you're associating the stink because you're done with running, 95 00:07:25,639 --> 00:07:28,879 or you're just putting these clothes on and they're smelling. No It'll be 96 00:07:28,879 --> 00:07:30,879 even like after I showered like a few hours ago, and then it's just 97 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,759 like I'm just noticing. It's not like a weird It's just like it's just 98 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,000 that underarm smell that like I don't ever notice, and now I'm like, 99 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,439 wait, what the fuck is that? But go around. I'm this is 100 00:07:40,439 --> 00:07:44,199 probably obvious, but like when you're in the shower, you're getting in there. 101 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,800 I'm getting right in there. Yeah, you're getting into all the crannies. 102 00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:50,480 Oh yeah, cranny's Yeah, all right, I assumed. So I 103 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:55,839 just think it's worth ticking all the boxes to see what's going on here, 104 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,800 or maybe doubling up on the on the deodorant and stuff. Every day, 105 00:07:59,839 --> 00:08:03,319 I'm to be running a lot more. Okay, yeah, I mean I've 106 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,120 actually we talked about this last time. I've also been running pretty consistently five 107 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:11,759 times a week, which is really good for me because I do not like 108 00:08:11,839 --> 00:08:16,199 running. And I don't know about you, but when I'm done running, 109 00:08:16,319 --> 00:08:20,600 I am bad. And I don't shower after a run. After a run, 110 00:08:20,639 --> 00:08:22,879 I just like change clothes and get right back into my world, like 111 00:08:22,959 --> 00:08:26,839 I just go back to work or whatever. I lay on the floor for 112 00:08:26,879 --> 00:08:28,959 a bit like I start stretching and then I'll just like like do one of 113 00:08:28,959 --> 00:08:31,839 those things you put your like behind you and laid back on it, and 114 00:08:31,839 --> 00:08:35,200 then I'll just lay there for a while. Uh huh yeah, or after 115 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,600 do you? I mainly do like the the you know, the what do 116 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,000 you call it? Not explosive, but the movement like jumping Jackson stuff before 117 00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:48,080 I run and then the stretching heavy stuff after the run is what I've been 118 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:54,320 doing. Lay on the floor normally instead of showering. Well it's more of 119 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:58,480 the lawn than the floor, but yeah, that should be it. I'm 120 00:08:58,519 --> 00:09:03,720 kidding on like in the lawn that I couldn't. I'm allergacy grass solved. 121 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,240 I think I'll be fine. I think maybe, yeah, maybe I'll just 122 00:09:09,279 --> 00:09:11,799 switch out the clothes more often. I think it'll be all right. But 123 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:16,480 time, no, no, I can't. I can't think. I wouldn't 124 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:22,639 think of it absolutely quit anything before Brian, what do you like about it 125 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,639 so much? Weird? I'm drinking candy and it's good for you. It's 126 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:33,000 not good for you. What part isn't? Superlose is not good for you, 127 00:09:33,399 --> 00:09:37,240 I know, but it's not hurting you. It's probably like you know, 128 00:09:37,399 --> 00:09:39,720 like, so this is the thing that a lot of people are doing. 129 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,559 Now. Have you seen there's like a huge rise of non soda but 130 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,759 their sodas. Yeah, it's not a commercial during the super Bowl where it's 131 00:09:46,759 --> 00:09:54,559 like better. Yeah. Yeah, there's a change in marketing for the new 132 00:09:54,679 --> 00:10:03,480 gen which is anti pop. So like back then, diet coke or diet 133 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:09,159 pepsi was the ultimate form of beverage. It was diet, so it was 134 00:10:09,159 --> 00:10:13,240 like marketed as good for you or healthy, and they would have all these 135 00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:16,720 like attractive celebrities drink it, and it was like diet coke whatever, like 136 00:10:16,759 --> 00:10:24,559 that's the drink of choice. That's like your mama's drink. Now it's superlose, 137 00:10:24,759 --> 00:10:33,799 you know. Yeah, like fake alternative sugar in a beverage that's marketed 138 00:10:33,919 --> 00:10:37,840 as healthy, and they usually do it with the form of we've shoved an 139 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,200 antioxidant in there, bitch sure, and and then they like market it as 140 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:46,159 like non soda. But it's very similar as a diet coke in the sense 141 00:10:46,159 --> 00:10:48,960 of like its health or its value to you. So no, diet coke 142 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,039 doesn't hurt you. Should you drink six diet cokes in a day? Probably 143 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,919 not so I'm here, Like if I'm Coca Cola or I'm the Pepsigo company, 144 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:03,759 I would start advertising hard towards children and just say some bullshit about how 145 00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:05,279 it's healthy and just go straight for the kids. Or like you know, 146 00:11:05,279 --> 00:11:09,039 if you're like a tobacco company or something, just get those kids going on 147 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,559 it. You got to make it seem like it's candy, it's good for 148 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,559 you. And I think that's the path to riches. Yes, that's exactly 149 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:20,600 what they all do. And as long as you don't get caught specifically targeting 150 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,799 children. Well, it was like a casino and I just want to get 151 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,559 kids into gambling that's illegal because kids aren't allowed to gamble. It's the same 152 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:33,759 thing that the cigarettes company got sued for Jewel. Jewel that fucked because they 153 00:11:33,799 --> 00:11:37,120 went they marketed too heavily towards kids, and they were very successful at it 154 00:11:37,159 --> 00:11:43,600 because they had things like lemonade and like blueberry. Yeah so smart. Yeah, 155 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,080 And the case was, ye, monetize them, that's that's right. 156 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:52,679 They did, and they were so good that the government stepped in and sued 157 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,120 them. And so I think jewels like completely ruined from that. You don't 158 00:11:56,159 --> 00:11:58,080 they flew too close to the son. You want to like market to children 159 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,559 in an unhealthy way, but like discreetly enough where you don't get in trouble. 160 00:12:03,759 --> 00:12:07,759 Like Joe Cammel, Yeah he did. There was a cool camel with 161 00:12:07,799 --> 00:12:09,960 sunglasses, and a kid would look at Joe Cambal'll be like, I want 162 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,159 to be like that camel. Then they start to earth. Would they even 163 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:18,399 have a cartoon character like you would Tony the Tiger unless they were going after 164 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,559 children. That's the perfect example, Dan. I mean, yes, fast 165 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,279 food is super unhealthy for kids, but that's extremely marketed towards kids. Right. 166 00:12:26,639 --> 00:12:30,720 Well, it's not illegal for a child to have a burger, it's 167 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:35,840 illegal for a child to smoke a jewel like tobacco, and it's illegal for 168 00:12:35,919 --> 00:12:39,600 them to be at the casino. I'm just like, I'm imagining a four 169 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:46,679 year old. This is an untapped market is children and gambling, let's get 170 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,960 into it. But I do in a way, we've got new merch for 171 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,679 all you toddlers out there, cigarette holders with the fire escape logo motter as 172 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:07,600 Thompson's cigarette things for kids extend straight off it's licorice, so file I do 173 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:13,240 think, you know, I wonder what our demos are. I suspect I'm 174 00:13:13,279 --> 00:13:16,799 a gambling woman, and I do suspect that I have a good gauge of 175 00:13:16,799 --> 00:13:20,120 what they are, and it's not children. Sometimes advertisers will ask me, 176 00:13:20,279 --> 00:13:26,440 and I just guess, and uh, I usually guess they're not listening. 177 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,039 They're not listening. Yes, Also, I don't know where to look to 178 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,720 find it, so I would give them the normal lemperts. But I don't 179 00:13:33,759 --> 00:13:37,200 know, I said, an educated guess. I do say, approximately, 180 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:43,519 it's like twenty five to forty five, twenty five to forty five gamers, 181 00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:52,240 enthusiastic gamers. Yeah, dudes, largely enthusiastic gamers. Contains twenty percent women. 182 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:58,200 Now how much super loose? Ten percent? Enough that you think that 183 00:13:58,279 --> 00:14:03,799 it counts a super low stock? Do you own? Can you buy stock 184 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,720 in super loops? No? Yah, don't buy stock in anything, well, 185 00:14:07,799 --> 00:14:11,240 not in superlows like it wouldn't be called like s u see, but 186 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:18,799 like the company that you, oh, Child would do it. Okay, 187 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:22,759 stock and casinos, and then we'll start vamp. We'll start vamped about Child 188 00:14:22,799 --> 00:14:26,240 Casinos every episode to drive the price up, and then we'll sell the stock 189 00:14:26,679 --> 00:14:30,440 and then we'll buy stock and kill child cigarettes and then we talk those child 190 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:35,240 cigarettes once they all get addicted, sell the money, and then you know 191 00:14:35,279 --> 00:14:43,159 what we go for at that point, Uh, baby baby caskets as good. 192 00:14:43,559 --> 00:14:48,240 Then we get into the baby casket business. Jesus Christ will have very 193 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,720 short little crabs tables and stuff and fun like Christoper Price chairs and you can 194 00:14:52,759 --> 00:14:54,559 rent like little power wheels to go from like the three card poker table to 195 00:14:54,559 --> 00:14:58,759 the crabs table. The levers on the the slow machines are just lollipops. 196 00:15:00,799 --> 00:15:03,320 Yeah, that you can just lick. But there's like no sanitary stuff at 197 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:07,240 all going on there that we don't swap them out. It's doesn't taste good 198 00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:13,360 any country where this is legal? Uh? Is it just us that makes 199 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,639 it illegal to do this? No, I'm certain there's some country were Campbell 200 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:30,480 child casina. I'm going this summer lolly pop summer machines, cigur a slot 201 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:43,320 machine right itself, sanitized bluey machines are legal. Uh. Slot machines by 202 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:48,840 country came up Wikipedia. Australia is the first entry. Oh it's because it 203 00:15:48,879 --> 00:15:54,679 starts with nay. That makes Australia is notorious for not allowing it. You 204 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,240 know, Australia is actually really protective of their children. Did you know, 205 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,080 like they're cereal that you can't I in Australia because Australia is like there's too 206 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:03,720 much sugar in here. Oh and they did the like leopardad had to change 207 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,840 its cover because the gore stuff and everything. Yeah. Oh, I mean 208 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:12,200 when you shoot Red in Australia, they just disappear. It's such a they've 209 00:16:12,279 --> 00:16:17,639 like completely ruined that game. But but I'm talking about like Cereal, So 210 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,559 like when you get Captain Crunch, you can't get Captain Crunch in Australia because 211 00:16:21,559 --> 00:16:26,120 they've deemed it unhealthy. Good, that's so fun. I'm typing in where 212 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,000 can I gamble if I'm a kid? Oh? I didn't, Okay, 213 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:34,559 But like also where gambling age by state? Amazing? We like one of 214 00:16:34,639 --> 00:16:38,840 the unhealthiest countries. Ever, I think that correlates to all the artificial shit 215 00:16:38,919 --> 00:16:42,759 we haven't food. Yeah, but it's also the place of freedom. Like 216 00:16:42,799 --> 00:16:45,399 I don't want to be told I can't have Captain Crunch. I'm with the 217 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,759 America doesn't want to be told that she can't have her guns, that she 218 00:16:48,879 --> 00:16:53,399 can't like Ronald Nixon, she damn wants to like, OJ, you guys, 219 00:16:53,879 --> 00:16:57,720 you're true patriots, true patriots. I always carry a gun in one 220 00:16:57,759 --> 00:17:03,919 hand, my nick flag in the other, and I like Captain Crunch. 221 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:08,359 Unfortunately, the lowest age you can gamble in America is gambling on Bengo in 222 00:17:08,559 --> 00:17:15,799 Maine. What age sixteen? We've got to go seven eight, I think 223 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,000 is the way to go. Let's go to Maine and bet on Bingo. 224 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,720 Yeah. Make the Bengo casino for children in Maine. Yeah, okay, 225 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:29,160 sick, but there's got to be cigarettes, no hand sanitizer and jewels. 226 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:33,160 Yeah, they can get jewels. There are do you guys do you enjoy 227 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:40,079 gambling? I have enjoyed it when I did it. I haven't done it 228 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,079 in forever. It was one of those things where it's like when I started 229 00:17:42,079 --> 00:17:44,359 going, I was like, man, there's a lot of fun. And 230 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:45,759 I kept winning, and I kept winning. I was like, I'm having 231 00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:48,200 fun with my friends. I'm getting free drinks and money. And then I 232 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,799 had like my first couple of times where I left with like, you know, 233 00:17:51,839 --> 00:17:52,759 I didn't have a lot of money back then, and I'd be like 234 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,640 two hundred dollars. I remember one time there's probably the last time I like 235 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,240 seriously tried to gamble, I was down two hundred dollars, probably like twenty 236 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,319 three years old. I go in, I lost two hundred dollars almost immediately 237 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,559 felt like shit, and I was like, okay, wait, I could 238 00:18:07,599 --> 00:18:10,440 get that back. Okay, I'll just say two hundred out of the ATM, 239 00:18:10,559 --> 00:18:11,759 put it on red un Roulette, I get it back, and then 240 00:18:11,759 --> 00:18:15,240 I just leave and I lost that, And so I remember that drive home. 241 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,839 You know, four hundred bucks back then was like critical for me. 242 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:23,160 That was like a good check of rent and games. Yeah, and I 243 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,880 was like, you know what, this feeling right now is not worth the 244 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,920 good feelings when I won. And also I realized that, you know, 245 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,200 there are people in my family closed to me that have like struggled with gambling 246 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,640 stuff in the past. And it's like, all right, I might have 247 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,920 this in me, and I don't really want to flirt with it much. 248 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,880 So like I did it once my wedding in Vegas, I threw a few 249 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,000 hundred on a craps table either once when I was in a Ruba a couple 250 00:18:45,079 --> 00:18:47,079 years ago. I mean, I'll do it if I'm ever in a casino, 251 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,240 I'll throw a couple hundred on a crap table or something. But like, 252 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:52,920 I'm not ever going to be a regular gambler. I don't think too 253 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,519 risky. Yeah, I don't just want to, you know, dip my 254 00:18:55,519 --> 00:18:56,640 toe into far in the oops. I have a gambling problem. You know. 255 00:18:57,079 --> 00:19:03,039 My dad loves to gamble. It's what he does. It's his vacation. 256 00:19:03,319 --> 00:19:06,400 And every year he always saves up a certain amount of money. And 257 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,200 because he gambles so much, he gets like the extra diamond version where they're 258 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,680 like, well, we'll cover your hotel and we'll cover your meals, and 259 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:18,480 he just goes and he stays for free at a casino and then he gambles 260 00:19:18,519 --> 00:19:22,319 and he gambles, and he usually statistically, This is what I find fascinating 261 00:19:22,319 --> 00:19:26,519 about, like legit gamblers is statistically, even though the house always wins, 262 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,680 he's very likely with the amount that he gambles, he always plays the same 263 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:36,880 game. He always plays like poker on a machine machine poker, yeah, 264 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:41,480 video pooker, And the amount that he plays usually twice a year, he 265 00:19:41,559 --> 00:19:45,079 hits it big. Usually twice a year he gets either a royal flush or 266 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:52,799 he gets like four aces or whatever, and he pulls like like a two 267 00:19:52,839 --> 00:19:57,359 thousand dollars hand that goes back into the amount he's allowed to spend. If 268 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,599 he had the ten and four joker, then he yeah, it had eaten 269 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:06,519 that more. That's right, Oh yeah yeah. And he usually like basically 270 00:20:06,519 --> 00:20:07,640 calls it at the end. He's never up at the end of the year. 271 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,680 It's not like he's like, hey, I made ten thousand dollars gambling 272 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,759 this year. He always spends probably three to four thousand dollars gambling every year. 273 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,039 But if he hits it big, he can he can throw eight thousand 274 00:20:19,079 --> 00:20:23,680 dollars gambling because he always gambles his winnings and that's like his thing. And 275 00:20:23,759 --> 00:20:26,079 I think I got that in me too. Yeah, I have that in 276 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,759 me too. I usually set mine or like way lower stakes because I am 277 00:20:30,799 --> 00:20:34,119 afraid. My stakes are usually five hundred dollars, and so I'll be like, 278 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,759 when this five hundred is gone, I'm out of here, and I 279 00:20:37,799 --> 00:20:41,920 consider every penny of that five hundred just like whatever, don't worry about it. 280 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:47,559 But we had TwitchCon in Vegas last year, and there was a girl 281 00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:51,920 from our sales team who was like, sit down with me and play blackjack, 282 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:52,519 and I was like, I don't play blackjack, and she was like, 283 00:20:52,559 --> 00:20:56,119 I will show you how to play, and she taught me everything. 284 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,759 She told me what to do for every hand, and I walked out of 285 00:20:59,799 --> 00:21:04,480 there like with fourteen hundred dollars. It was crazy in token, like in 286 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,319 those little chips and it felt so And you know what else I did. 287 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,359 I kept like giving the chips to a person and then they would massage me 288 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,119 while I was playing. Oh wow, so they would just do it four 289 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:21,240 chips they different, right, they did it, yes, with a cigarette. 290 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:26,640 Yeah. I love gambling and Maine I had what I would consider probably 291 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:32,279 the best case scenario with gambling. The first time I went, I bet 292 00:21:32,319 --> 00:21:34,640 twenty dollars in blackjack and I lost. I said, oh, this sucks, 293 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,400 and I have not gambled since. Ye, it's just kind of like 294 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,119 an asshole. After about doing I played poker with friends. Were like the 295 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,160 table stakes like though small, the you know, the buy in was like 296 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,160 twenty bucks, but I have never I don't count that, like I'll have 297 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,240 over for poker. And it's like if it's a tournament where you're playing for 298 00:21:52,279 --> 00:21:53,519 five hours and it's like a twenty dollars buy in. It's like that's not 299 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,839 that's twenty dollars for like a night of fun with your friends. That's yeah, 300 00:21:57,839 --> 00:22:00,640 And there are certain moods them in when I enjoy the vibe of a 301 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,559 casino setting and I'll go and hang out and go to the bar and whatnot. 302 00:22:03,559 --> 00:22:07,319 But like gambling, from what I know, is not a vice that's 303 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:12,039 anywhere in my extended family and my family like you know, the disease I 304 00:22:12,039 --> 00:22:15,200 should say, like, but in terms of people who enjoy gambling, I 305 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,960 actually don't know, but yeah, it's it's never I can put I can 306 00:22:22,079 --> 00:22:27,400 imagine the rush of winning a lot of money, but I just I I 307 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:33,680 maybe think more about the negatives, which I guess is healthy. And I'm 308 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,400 not trying to bread because it's not like I don't have other problems, but 309 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:38,519 like, yeah, I don't know. No, everyone's got their stuff, 310 00:22:38,519 --> 00:22:41,680 and like the gambling thing is like very directly in my lineage, and so 311 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,599 I just kind of feel like if I had flirted with it, it's like, 312 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,400 ah, that's could go bad. So probably not got it. Yeah, 313 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:52,920 but if there was a casino with a bunch of children, they'd be 314 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:56,359 easy to beat at like poker, or it might be that thing where it's 315 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:56,799 like, you know, if you have a friend that's never played and they 316 00:22:56,799 --> 00:23:00,960 said at the poker table, and you can't really because like they're not following 317 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,440 normal logic, so I can't. Like I would really hate to lose poker 318 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,880 to a child. I did have. There was a sixteen year old over 319 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,680 here. It's a Jeff Cork brought a son over for poker a few months 320 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:18,079 ago. He started with that context for poker, put your money on to 321 00:23:18,079 --> 00:23:23,839 get your parents' money. This smells kid. Three cigarettes all you can smock. 322 00:23:25,799 --> 00:23:27,880 I think sixteen is too smart or like Jeff Cork's kid was too smart, 323 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,720 because like I think, if you're going to take children's money, it 324 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,240 should be dumber and younger. I think it's sixteen. You can play poker. 325 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,599 That is not crazy. You can. It's pretty smart. You can 326 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,960 be a chess champion at sixteen, right like you can get it done. 327 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,400 So, yes, you can be absolutely spanked by a sixteen year old. 328 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:52,400 I think that would be very embarrassing to lose significantly at poker to a child. 329 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,319 Game. Yeah, like at Backlar's kid beat me at poker. I 330 00:23:56,359 --> 00:24:02,440 would just move to another country. You're already ruining his life. Don't play. 331 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:06,559 Don't beat him in poker. He shouldn't be embarrassed. I beat him 332 00:24:06,559 --> 00:24:08,200 a poker because I should beat him at poker because he's an idiot kid and 333 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:12,920 I'm a grown man with a job and I went to college. True, 334 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,480 I agree, Mary, you're shaking your head. You haven't met this kid. 335 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:22,119 Sucks. I just don't think you can address children like that. I 336 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:26,359 can, and I will, and you can't stop me. I can't stop 337 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,759 you, but I will shake my head disapprovingly. I loved he. Have 338 00:24:30,799 --> 00:24:33,680 you told you a story about the time Jeff and his family came over here 339 00:24:33,759 --> 00:24:37,880 to hang out for a night and oh yeah, yeah. Twenty seconds in 340 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,720 Dylan sat at our breakfast bar in the kitchen while we were all just kind 341 00:24:41,759 --> 00:24:45,359 of catching up. He just like interrupts by saying, I'm bored. Yeah, 342 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,720 he sucks. That's right, awesome. I love it. This is 343 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:52,759 how Backlart teaches his child to act at a stranger's house. Power pees. 344 00:24:53,079 --> 00:24:57,400 No. I liked it, and then he made me download Retown. He's 345 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:03,440 gonna be in jail in six years. Jesus. I think children are when 346 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:10,200 they like mixed it up. He should be. I had a kid come 347 00:25:10,279 --> 00:25:15,000 over a couple like a month ago. I had a friend who was driving 348 00:25:15,039 --> 00:25:18,640 to California, so they stopped for the night and they had a kid. 349 00:25:18,759 --> 00:25:23,480 I want to say twelve, that's my guest nineteen. But functional, you 350 00:25:23,519 --> 00:25:29,160 know, And what do you mean my functional? Yeah, like when they're 351 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,759 like five and they don't even have like awareness that they're alive yet, and 352 00:25:32,759 --> 00:25:36,240 they're just like a twelve girl can have a conversation. That's right. Yeah, 353 00:25:36,319 --> 00:25:38,880 I think five year olds know they're alive. Do you know about death? 354 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:41,480 When was your last memory? Right? Like, it's not when you're 355 00:25:41,519 --> 00:25:45,960 five, it was way before when I was like four, I was four. 356 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:51,400 Yeah. Yeah, shitting your pants is not a memory that holds water, 357 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:55,359 hen because I was like twenty six the last time I shited my pants. 358 00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:02,759 I'm talking about like being cognitively aware and like knowing enough that if I 359 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:04,680 was like, here's twenty bucks, can you go to the store and get 360 00:26:04,759 --> 00:26:07,079 something, they could do it. A twelve year old knows they're going to 361 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:11,000 die someday. A five year old night not sure that's fair correct, Although 362 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,759 I'm self aware of hell, five year olds are going to die someday. 363 00:26:14,799 --> 00:26:18,920 You're going to die one day, Timmy. Anyway, this kid comes over 364 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,519 and he's like, I'm showing them the place, and I'm like, here's 365 00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:26,279 our basement. We have a row machine. And then we go back upstairs. 366 00:26:26,559 --> 00:26:30,880 I'm getting everybody a drink and the kid's like, I want to row 367 00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:33,319 and I was like, well, you can use the row machine if you 368 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,720 want to, and he went down. I mean, he's twelve, I 369 00:26:37,759 --> 00:26:41,720 hope not oh twelve. Oh okay, okay, this isn't. First of 370 00:26:41,759 --> 00:26:45,559 all, this is not Mike Maharty like two years ago. This is this 371 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,559 is a fresh, normal twelve year old. He went downstairs as far as 372 00:26:49,599 --> 00:26:55,440 I'm awhere, and he rode for forty five minutes while I hung out with 373 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,960 his parents. And then he came upstairs and went tired, I'm going to 374 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,680 bed, and I was like it's nine and he was like it's past my 375 00:27:00,839 --> 00:27:04,480 bedtime. And I was like, well, yeah, I guess go to 376 00:27:04,559 --> 00:27:07,279 meds. And he washed his face, he brushed his teeth, and he 377 00:27:07,279 --> 00:27:11,519 took his ass to bed. And then, first of all, forty five 378 00:27:11,559 --> 00:27:15,400 minutes is a long row session. Fifteen that's a lot. And he was 379 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,920 completely like he was taking care of himself. Nobody bothered him. And I 380 00:27:19,039 --> 00:27:22,200 like kind of looked at the parents like this, isn't that weird, and 381 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,240 they were like, he's a weird kid, but he doesn't bother anybody. 382 00:27:25,559 --> 00:27:29,279 He wanted to work out, and he wanted and then he was tired. 383 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,839 He worked himself out and then went to sleep. It's probably one of my 384 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:37,720 sound prettavorite child well adjusted. Yeah that's me at twelve. Holy shit, 385 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,880 I agree. I was a nightmare when I was twelve. I was like, 386 00:27:41,039 --> 00:27:44,359 I don't give me attention. I will ruin this night for everybody, 387 00:27:45,079 --> 00:27:48,160 never working out, staying up till three in the morning every single night, 388 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:52,799 Like his row machine is so sticky. Yeah, when I was twelve, 389 00:27:53,079 --> 00:27:56,680 I don't know how you would make that work. I was probably trying to 390 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,359 figure out how how to like have sex with most of the things in my 391 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,640 basement when I was most twelve year old. Yeah, yeah, I started 392 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:11,000 boys. Yeah, I was not fucking row machines when I was growing up. 393 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:19,519 That is exclusive.

Show fight 433 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:29,599 so terrible. Sounds like Dan's impression of his father. No, No, 434 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,839 that's my impression of my dad doing impressions and mocking voice for me. Yeah, 435 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,920 yeah, I love, I'm married. That was me doing Dan doing 436 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,880 his dad doing Dan. That's correct. Yes, yes, Tales of Canzera 437 00:31:44,119 --> 00:31:48,599 Zoo. I think we are a Metroidvania friendly podcast, aren't we we are? 438 00:31:48,279 --> 00:31:52,160 Yeah? Everything, Well, I won't make a holid night joke. 439 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:59,200 And it was a tough tough week for you. Very sure, okay, 440 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:04,640 So yeah, Tales of Zarah it is. It's okay, So I'm liking 441 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,200 it. It's good. It is one of those things where it starts out 442 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,359 and I can instantly tell I like the movement, the platforming it's very snappy. 443 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,599 It starts you with a double jump, which, look, the moment 444 00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:17,480 you get a double jump in a Metroidvania is always so great, but sometimes 445 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,880 you just get it from the beginning. It's like, you know what, 446 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,480 fuck, yeah this this, this feels good. It kind of has a 447 00:32:23,119 --> 00:32:28,319 or type of it's very saturated. It looks like or I'm looking at it 448 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,119 right now, good looking. Yeah, it's got a good look. I 449 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:37,039 think it is definitely going more for a story type of experience, in a 450 00:32:37,119 --> 00:32:42,839 narrative experience, than it is like super challenging exploration heavy. I mean, 451 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,640 there is like, oh, you can go down the mines and go this 452 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:50,039 way or that way, but there's not this like labyrinth like giant maps that 453 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:54,079 a lot of the genre entries that I like have. And also I do 454 00:32:54,160 --> 00:33:00,319 think the proximity the Prince of Persia doesn't do it any favors because all of 455 00:33:00,319 --> 00:33:06,119 this is like the platforming is good, the combat is good, but having 456 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,880 just played Prince of Persia a few months ago, I think that really raised 457 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,319 the bar. And also the quality of life stuff like the memories and all 458 00:33:13,359 --> 00:33:15,279 that, even though there's less backtracking and stuff in this game, like it 459 00:33:15,319 --> 00:33:20,200 seems like I'm just going forward and following the story, so maybe you don't 460 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,000 need that as much. But there are a lot of like combat arena type 461 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,160 things where it's like, Okay, we're gonna wall this place off and we're 462 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,559 just gonna drop in waves of enemies, and there's not that many different types. 463 00:33:28,759 --> 00:33:30,799 I'm only like three hours in, i would say, but there haven't 464 00:33:30,799 --> 00:33:36,039 been a huge variety of enemies. The combat. It's interesting in that you 465 00:33:36,119 --> 00:33:38,680 have these two masks that like, okay, here's like the sun mask and 466 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:43,559 the Moon mask, and the Sun one is you know, shooting arrows and 467 00:33:43,599 --> 00:33:45,839 it's melee focused. I'm sorry, it's not arrows. That's like a bonus 468 00:33:45,839 --> 00:33:50,599 ability. It's more melee focused. It's like light and heavy melee for the 469 00:33:51,039 --> 00:33:53,160 Orange one. And then the Blue one is you can shoot arrows that kind 470 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:58,000 of they just recharge on their own and there's like an active reload thing like 471 00:33:58,079 --> 00:34:00,240 gears, and it's all snappy. It's fun. You can you know, 472 00:34:00,319 --> 00:34:02,880 jump in mid air and shoot off a bunch of arrows at a flying enemy 473 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,119 land you know, switch to your sun thing, do a watch of that, 474 00:34:06,519 --> 00:34:09,960 juggle all that. It's all good, but I do think that when 475 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:14,440 it's coming off of Prince of Persia, which you know it's it's not the 476 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,639 game's fault that another game came out that is better recently, but you know, 477 00:34:17,679 --> 00:34:22,119 the game on its own is good. But Prince of Persia was great, 478 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:28,280 and I'm not loving the combat, Like it just doesn't feel as deep 479 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,679 as I think I went from the genre from every element of like exploration to 480 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:35,519 combat. The platforming is probably the best it's got. It's got a lot 481 00:34:35,559 --> 00:34:37,480 of fun, like you know, kind of wall running and while jumping, 482 00:34:37,519 --> 00:34:39,440 not while running, it's more while jumping, but like you get this ability 483 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:43,039 where you can freeze water, so like a waterfall becomes a thing that you 484 00:34:43,079 --> 00:34:45,559 can kind of wall jump up and things like that, and it all feels 485 00:34:45,639 --> 00:34:51,599 very snappy and good. It's it's very generous with the checkpoints, so challenge 486 00:34:51,639 --> 00:34:54,000 wise, it's not too crazy. It does some really smart things. I'm 487 00:34:54,039 --> 00:34:59,400 playing on PlayStation, so, like you, the Orange Mask has a thing 488 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,920 where it's like if you swipe and then new time your next hit perfectly, 489 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,559 it'll do super damage or whatever, and it'll do like the audio cue on 490 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,559 the controller speaker, which I normally hate, like ninety nine percent of controller 491 00:35:09,599 --> 00:35:14,440 speaker stuff because it's just so obnoxious and gimmicky to me. But it's cool 492 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,039 that, like you see the glint on the weapon and you hear it in 493 00:35:16,039 --> 00:35:19,559 your controller, it's like you can kind of get that timing down with that. 494 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,800 So it is doing some smart things and I think everything that's doing is 495 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:30,440 good. I just don't think it is exactly what I want or expect from 496 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,480 a Metroidvania nowadays. Again, it's it's narrative heavy, and you know that's 497 00:35:32,519 --> 00:35:37,199 not really my thing. It seems very earnest. It sounds like it was 498 00:35:37,199 --> 00:35:39,679 the creator made it to kind of deal with his like he lost his father 499 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:44,079 and this was kind of like you know, dealing with you know, grief 500 00:35:44,159 --> 00:35:45,719 and the afterlife and things like that, and so it does seem like there's 501 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:50,719 a real personal touch to this game. But yeah, I'm I'm just very 502 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,960 much one of those Symphony of the Night blood Stained Prince of Persia, like 503 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,559 give me a big ass map, give me a bunch of weird enemies to 504 00:35:57,639 --> 00:36:01,400 kill, bunch and bunch bunch of upgrades, and Persia had so much fucking 505 00:36:01,519 --> 00:36:06,199 story. I don't know if like that is the one that is like The 506 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,519 Golden Child. Remember how much text you had to go through there was? 507 00:36:08,559 --> 00:36:10,559 There was, Yeah, and I didn't like it. That was definitely the 508 00:36:10,559 --> 00:36:15,199 weakest part of that game to me, that that's just constantly bopping through that 509 00:36:15,679 --> 00:36:19,719 text. But the thing is it had all that other stuff going on though, 510 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:21,960 like it had a reason like, Okay, on the other side of 511 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,559 this conversation, I'm going to get a Killer upgrade or something like that, 512 00:36:24,599 --> 00:36:30,039 and here it's like I feel like I'm going between story things with some like 513 00:36:30,119 --> 00:36:34,519 light platforming and combat challenges and things like that. So it's, uh, 514 00:36:34,679 --> 00:36:37,199 it's good. I would not say it's great. And yeah, I look 515 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,039 it up, you know, looking like the story stuff and everything, but 516 00:36:39,079 --> 00:36:43,480 seems like something that would resonate with you. It might have something price point 517 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:47,519 though, because like you know, I never know. Let me the reason 518 00:36:53,519 --> 00:37:01,960 I don't Tales of Can praise. Let me see the reason I ask, 519 00:37:02,039 --> 00:37:07,760 you know what Persia isn't cheap? You know, this is seventeen ninety nine 520 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:12,880 on Steam pre order and says that I'm PlayStation as well, twenty twenty dollars. 521 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,400 Looks like if you don't pre order it, yeah, twenty honestly, 522 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,480 and how much is Prince of Persia. I swear it was forty? Was 523 00:37:19,519 --> 00:37:25,880 it? I look new Crown lost crowd that was fifty on switch at least 524 00:37:27,119 --> 00:37:31,679 for Aye. There you go. Maybe that's an interesting thing. I should 525 00:37:31,679 --> 00:37:35,719 be aware of what I'm talking about. Your lucky I was here. Yes, 526 00:37:37,039 --> 00:37:39,639 I always think about that with prices and never buys anything she doesn't need 527 00:37:39,639 --> 00:37:45,559 to, Batchel, I always think about my wallet. Correspondents curiously they call 528 00:37:45,639 --> 00:37:51,360 me money Mary, and I'm always thinking about it. Here the Pire escape 529 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,400 cast money Mary. How much is it? Mary? It's seventeen dollars, 530 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:59,400 which is a pretty good deal. It's seventeen dollars. And as a reminder, 531 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,239 I would not eat a piece of turd for one hundred thousand dollars. 532 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:07,519 I can't trust her with money. Then, definitely that's true that you can 533 00:38:07,639 --> 00:38:13,159 quote me on that seventeen dollars and I would not eat a turd. So 534 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,119 Dan does that change it? Are you saying like it's better value than Honestly, 535 00:38:16,119 --> 00:38:19,320 that's like for seventeen ninety nine. If I was just someone who just 536 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,199 wanted like a Metroidvania fix, like this is good enough for that. I 537 00:38:23,079 --> 00:38:27,880 it feels almost like like a we're not insulting or talking down like, oh 538 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,679 it's good enough, it's good, it's it's a good little like it's it's 539 00:38:30,559 --> 00:38:36,440 a have to The dollar value actually absolutely matters, for sure. I don't 540 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,159 think that's the only way to talk about a game's value though. No, 541 00:38:38,159 --> 00:38:42,760 no, no it's not, but it's it's important in the context of it. 542 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,760 Yeah, I'll put it this way. Quality, Like if I were 543 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,159 reviewing these back up the game and former scale, this would probably be a 544 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:51,760 seven point five, whereas Prince of Persia was like a nine point five plus. 545 00:38:52,039 --> 00:38:54,760 Okay, yeah, yeah, I mean Prince of Persia is phenomenal. 546 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:59,239 But I actually remember I think the reason I said that is because I remember 547 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,280 when we were trying a hardcore sell people on Prince of Persia and talking about 548 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:05,719 how good it was. I had people tweet at me and be like, 549 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,480 yo, that's fifty bucks, and I had to justify it and be like, 550 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:12,800 oh, really, I do think it's worth it. I think it's 551 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,159 worth it too. But that's like the context, right, is that like 552 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:20,519 for a person to spend fifty dollars, it has to be not only a 553 00:39:20,519 --> 00:39:22,119 good game. You start talking about things like length, and I know that 554 00:39:22,159 --> 00:39:28,199 not everybody is like length is super important when it comes to it's the quality, 555 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:39,639 right, not girth is more mean Anyway, there is a breaking point 556 00:39:39,679 --> 00:39:44,239 where if the game is like ten hours long, it's fifty bucks. Is 557 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,599 a hard cell? Yeah, no, I get it. Yeah, yeah, 558 00:39:47,639 --> 00:39:52,079 but I also, yeah, Prince of Persia, despite being if some 559 00:39:52,079 --> 00:39:53,360 people are like, oh, it's fifty dollars, I think it's probably my 560 00:39:53,519 --> 00:39:57,000 game of the year so far, and have to look at what's actually coming 561 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:02,159 out this year, like, yeah, because Prince of Persia is very high 562 00:40:02,159 --> 00:40:07,480 for me. I think it's a very good game. I like just a 563 00:40:07,559 --> 00:40:14,800 transition. I played pepper Grinder again and I beat it, and I want 564 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:20,480 to talk about it again because pepper Grinder is fifteen dollars and I don't think 565 00:40:20,519 --> 00:40:23,360 I really processed that that's also an extremely affordable game for what it is. 566 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,559 And the first time you and I talked about pepper Grinder, we talked about 567 00:40:27,559 --> 00:40:31,599 how it is pretty good. Right, It's a platformer with some combat. 568 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:37,559 It requires precision. It's not an easy game by any means, and it 569 00:40:37,599 --> 00:40:42,599 got so complicated or like so kind of the difficulty spike hit so hard. 570 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:47,079 I was thinking about quitting and was like thinking about calling it because it was 571 00:40:47,079 --> 00:40:50,119 just getting a little too much for me. Well, the other day I 572 00:40:50,159 --> 00:40:52,559 decided to go back to it because I do like the game. I think 573 00:40:52,599 --> 00:40:55,000 it's really neat and I beat it, and I just want to say I 574 00:40:55,039 --> 00:41:00,880 do actually think it's pretty fucking good for the price point actually changed my tune 575 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:07,440 on it a little bit. I think Pepper Grinder trains you for one of 576 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:12,360 the most epic like final boss fights of any game I have ever played. 577 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,320 And I was I was like in tears when I beat this game. It 578 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:20,639 was a very difficult boss fight, but everything that you're learning, it's kind 579 00:41:20,639 --> 00:41:22,760 of programming you to be like, you do need to do this because the 580 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:27,519 final boss fight is going to beat your ass and it and he did. 581 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,519 It's so rewarding to be able to finish this game. I love a good 582 00:41:30,559 --> 00:41:32,880 boss fight like that that it's not just like, you know, like a 583 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,239 lot of great games have a boss fight, but you fight it like every 584 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,800 other boss or use the Master Sword or whatever. I like ones that teach 585 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:43,960 you a ton of different mobility things and attack things and Perry's and all these 586 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:45,800 things you have to keep in mind. And then they have a really great 587 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:47,320 boss fight at the end where it's like, all right, now, show 588 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,440 that you know how to use all that you know. That's really good A 589 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,000 game pulls that off. I don't think it uses all of the different moves 590 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,239 in the final boss fight, but I think what I'm saying is is like 591 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,920 all the things that I was like, Oh, this is like really tough 592 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,760 that you're making me navigate my drill so expertly, and the final boss fight 593 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,480 is like, if you don't know how to expertly use your drill by now, 594 00:42:05,679 --> 00:42:08,199 you ain't gonna beat this game. Sure, And I think that's really 595 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:13,519 cool. I think it makes the player earn the credit sequence. I felt 596 00:42:13,639 --> 00:42:16,039 great playing it. I also think that it continued to mix up the gameplay, 597 00:42:16,039 --> 00:42:20,119 which I was also very impressed by. We talked about in the last 598 00:42:20,119 --> 00:42:22,800 one. Like I got a snowmobile and I was like, this is great. 599 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,719 It does more cool shit like that. There was like a train sequence. 600 00:42:27,599 --> 00:42:30,039 There was like a couple other like really rad boss sequences that were very 601 00:42:30,039 --> 00:42:37,639 difficult to get through. Oh there's a mech that you can go into and 602 00:42:37,679 --> 00:42:40,480 you can control like metal slug style. Nice. Yes, it's really cool 603 00:42:40,679 --> 00:42:46,760 and it's just like all these different and all those were really nice surprises for 604 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:51,079 me. You should experience them yourselves. But this was like the first time 605 00:42:51,079 --> 00:42:55,159 where I was like, oh, you did really make this game evolve over 606 00:42:55,239 --> 00:43:00,239 times that each level feels a bit more distinct and more interesting. And again 607 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:04,440 I think the final boss fight for me, it was such a slog It 608 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,599 was so difficult to get through. By the time I hit credits, I 609 00:43:07,679 --> 00:43:09,920 was like, this game is beautiful, Like I love what they did with 610 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:14,719 it. It's just a dewey game in its core. There's no fucking text. 611 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,719 It never explains anything. Who the hell knows what this story is about? 612 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,960 Like, what the fuck is going on? She's got a drill and 613 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,760 there's like all these goblins that are trying to kill her, Like it doesn't 614 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:27,400 make any sense at all, and they don't give a shit about the story. 615 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,199 I think it is like it is a really well made game, and 616 00:43:30,199 --> 00:43:32,480 I think for fifteen bucks, like I basically have become sold on it. 617 00:43:32,519 --> 00:43:36,280 So I am a fan of Peppergrinder. Now how long would you say this 618 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,559 like for you to be and we checked my hours on Steam, Yeah, 619 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,960 I should go back, Like that seems like a good one to uh lit 620 00:43:44,039 --> 00:43:45,400 up on like a for like a flight or something like that. It's a 621 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:50,199 great I think it's a good one. I think because a Steam deck, 622 00:43:50,599 --> 00:43:52,840 I would definitely want like a game pad for it, So a steam deck 623 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:57,719 would be a good one. You know. I'll put it right now on 624 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,599 Best Playing Game for I got the twenty twenty four category lit just so we 625 00:44:00,639 --> 00:44:02,599 don't forget it. I'll put it there. Yeah, I think it's great. 626 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:07,119 I was very impressed, and let me just check my library. But 627 00:44:07,199 --> 00:44:10,920 I was I remember saying to myself like when I finally finished it, I 628 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:15,920 was like, oh, I'm glad I finished it. Glad I finally completed 629 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,519 it. That is not accurate. It's saying three point one hours. That's 630 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,400 that's impossible because I streamed it twice for three hours apiece, and then I 631 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:28,199 and then I played it. I've never seen that be so wrong before. 632 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,559 And then I played it for at least four hours on vacation, so I 633 00:44:30,639 --> 00:44:35,039 want to say it's a minimum ten hours. I wonder if you're if you 634 00:44:35,119 --> 00:44:37,400 played on that vacation on your steam deck, but you haven't connected that to 635 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,360 the internet since you played that into that that could be that could be the 636 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:43,719 case that it did an update, because I've played it on two different occasions 637 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,679 on a stream, so that alone is like seven hours plus I played it 638 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:53,119 on I would say twelve hours minimum. Nice. Yeah, I definitely liked 639 00:44:53,119 --> 00:44:57,159 what I played. Yeah, it's it's great. I was really proud. 640 00:44:57,199 --> 00:44:59,719 I was really glad. I'm glad to like say, I like concluded. 641 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,079 I think it has a good, like satisfying ending, not that there's like 642 00:45:04,119 --> 00:45:07,480 a story, but like there's a really nice ending sequence that's cute. It's 643 00:45:07,519 --> 00:45:09,800 just it's a it's a well made little piece of little piece of game. 644 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:15,320 Nice. I'm looking for stuff because I got a long flight coming up in 645 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,440 a bit and I'm looking for stuff to bring on it. And I got 646 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,280 a light next week too. Maybe we can share some recks. I've already 647 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,199 beaten pepper Grinders, so I can't recommend that to myself, but I would 648 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:29,239 like a recommendation that you have for a playing game. Well, I was 649 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,119 thinking to load and stuff up, and I was going to download pepper Grinder 650 00:45:31,119 --> 00:45:35,760 because I just got this ion Neo flip ds this thing here, so it's 651 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,599 like a screen like grub got me turned on to this stuff. It's straight 652 00:45:38,679 --> 00:45:42,280 up just like the bottom screen is a touch pad, so you can put 653 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,039 like for emulation for three DS and for WEU and things like that, Like 654 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:49,039 I want to put wind Waker HD on this thing. But it's also just 655 00:45:49,079 --> 00:45:51,639 straight up Windows, so you can put Steam on it and you can do 656 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,719 like unlike the same deck. I'm sure you can do like Fortnite, the 657 00:45:53,880 --> 00:46:01,320 Epic games. If you do illegal, what part the device or to hear 658 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:07,679 the device is not illegal? I mean said enough, I mean it's legal. 659 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,000 It's just a win. It's a PC. So it's like you can 660 00:46:09,039 --> 00:46:15,840 download Steam Etic Game Store and probably does not want you to be playing their 661 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:22,199 games on there. Who said anything about Nintendo? You did? Oh you 662 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,760 said you were gonna put your show on right now? This could be anything. 663 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,960 It's look, it's an audio podcast. No one knows what I have 664 00:46:30,079 --> 00:46:32,039 in my hand here, uh huh. But but yeah, it started. 665 00:46:32,079 --> 00:46:36,320 It's like it's it's gonna make me wonder like if I should bring my Steam 666 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,559 deck or this on things, because like this actually has a smaller form factor. 667 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:43,800 I can do everything the Steam deck can do in terms of like I 668 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,880 can download Steam games on it. I'm sure, like horsepower wise and tech 669 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,039 wise and everything, the steam Deck is probably superior. And it also is 670 00:46:51,079 --> 00:46:52,960 just like since it is is a thing that is meant to like play Steam 671 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:57,280 games, it does that so perfectly that like, man, I might just 672 00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,159 let up the steam Deck. But anyway, it's just it's a good time. 673 00:46:59,199 --> 00:47:00,119 I think we're talking really, but it's a good time to be in 674 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:05,679 a gamer on the go because between like all the portable options and phone stuff 675 00:47:05,679 --> 00:47:08,280 and Steam Deck and switch and like now this thing, like I love that. 676 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,039 When I go on a long flight, I'm like, Okay, which 677 00:47:10,079 --> 00:47:14,480 of these numerous devices or the analog pocket or whatever am I gonna load up 678 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:15,960 with games and play on this long flight? So yeah, it's a it's 679 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:20,519 a good problem to have deciding which will bring I agree. Talk about where 680 00:47:20,519 --> 00:47:24,400 you're going anything anywhere interesting? Uh, Europe is the plan. I got 681 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:30,239 to see how my head is doing before the flights and stuff's going nuts about 682 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:35,000 something. But yeah, so I should be going to Europe in next month, 683 00:47:35,079 --> 00:47:39,440 but we'll see. Next week, I am going to Saint Jude for 684 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:44,440 the Saint Jude Play Live festival. Every year, they always bring a bunch 685 00:47:44,519 --> 00:47:51,199 of creators who help raise money for Saint Jude Children's Hospital to Memphis, Tennessee, 686 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:57,760 and I will be going. It's such a tremendously powerful experience because you 687 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:05,159 meet children who have benefited from Saint Jude and have been who are either like 688 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:08,440 experiencing treatment or finish their treatment or now living like healthy, normal lives. 689 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:12,880 It's wild. And then all you gotta do is like get them hooked on 690 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:15,840 gambling. You got like a whole yeah time left to get them. Yeah, 691 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:21,159 absolutely, very I have I went, I've been to. I have 692 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,280 done this Saint Jude tour. I think four times now. I love. 693 00:48:25,119 --> 00:48:30,719 Yeah, it's super awesome. Based in Memphis. Yeah, I think it's 694 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:40,639 where they're big because it's a campus. St. Jude big juge. Yeah. 695 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:50,480 Hey Juje, Hey Jude, don't forget your deck on that flight from 696 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:58,639 Oregon to Memphis. Keep going, keep going. I remember the Empire Survivors 697 00:48:58,679 --> 00:49:05,559 has a DLCA coming out with guns. That's pretty weird. Hey Juje, 698 00:49:06,159 --> 00:49:12,800 stop drinking prime. You are Sacha. I'm ju Logan. Paul Shoe, 699 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:21,480 Now he sucked. Don't let your kids into Dan's house. I agree with 700 00:49:21,559 --> 00:49:24,880 their money. I have them. Some stove gees leave the money in their 701 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:31,039 nail box. Yeah, I have not played. I've been playing a lot 702 00:49:31,079 --> 00:49:35,039 for work, but free time wise, i've not played a ton. I 703 00:49:35,119 --> 00:49:39,519 did start a new Elden Ring play through character with the intent of preparing for 704 00:49:39,639 --> 00:49:45,360 Shadow of the Urd Tree in June, the big DLC. I guess I 705 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:49,360 could have just used my other character to get ready for it, but I 706 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:52,000 don't know. The prospect of seeing a lot of those early areas with a 707 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,000 different build was fun. I could have done the respect with the Pope Turtle, 708 00:49:55,119 --> 00:49:59,599 but again, you know you wouldn't go back and see Margaret the same 709 00:49:59,639 --> 00:50:02,400 way. Now I'm doing the I never did the bleed build. I'm doing 710 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:06,719 the dual Katana Samurai build right now. It's fun. A lot of bleed 711 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,639 damage just builds up really quickly, and then they lose like a quarter of 712 00:50:08,679 --> 00:50:15,599 their health bar when you hit them enough. Yeah it's pretty good. Yeah, 713 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:22,159 I will say that. Let me think back on so two years ago? 714 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:30,360 Was it twenty two? Yeah? I love Eldon Ring, but I'm 715 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:34,119 getting bored more often than I remember the first time I played it. And 716 00:50:34,159 --> 00:50:37,880 granted I'm not into the very interesting parts yet, Like I'm still ling Grave 717 00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:45,960 and the first Legacy Dungeon the Castle, but also maybe the Bleed Bill is 718 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:51,519 just a bit more powerful, so it's not as challenging yet, but I'm 719 00:50:51,559 --> 00:50:58,400 definitely finding that as I'm exploring on Torrent the Horse your mount and I'm going 720 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,480 like down to the Weeping Peninsula down south. We Obviously a lot of the 721 00:51:00,519 --> 00:51:04,440 mystery is just by nature of it being my third playthrough is gonna be gone, 722 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:10,280 but I'm getting just Also, Tiers the Kingdom like kind of ruined, 723 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:15,320 like getting from point A to B in a way that elden Ring wasn't trying 724 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:17,519 to be Breath of the Wild, But then Tears of the Kingdom came along 725 00:51:17,559 --> 00:51:22,239 and just went so much deeper and also in a way that elden Ring does 726 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:27,199 too in terms of going underground an a high but down. The game's still 727 00:51:27,199 --> 00:51:32,639 phenomenal. I'm it's still just so well tuned mechanically, and I'm still just 728 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:37,079 having a blast exploring, even if it's not the same as it once was. 729 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,639 Yeah, it's still good. I'm gonnamute my mic and see why my 730 00:51:40,639 --> 00:51:45,360 dog's losing his mind. Sorry, I'll be back. Woodpeckers, it's the 731 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:52,360 woodpeckers. Mary. I need you to stop me from doing something. Okay, 732 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:59,440 I've been I'm not traditionally an MMO guy, but for work purposes, 733 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:05,079 I've just been looking more into momos and kind of getting into the MMO space 734 00:52:05,159 --> 00:52:13,440 lately, and I have I'm trying to not get into Wow when I'm this 735 00:52:13,639 --> 00:52:16,719 age and at this point, huh, I'm pretty confident I won't get like 736 00:52:17,039 --> 00:52:21,239 into Wow in the way that people used to when they were, you know, 737 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,599 eighteen. I'm not gonna do that their lives away. Yeah, I 738 00:52:23,639 --> 00:52:27,119 won't be doing that. I don't. I just don't play games like that. 739 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,639 When Wharf, when I got into War from like that was like all 740 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:31,639 right, I'm done. But like, I kind of want to dabble in 741 00:52:31,679 --> 00:52:35,440 Wow because there's so much I've missed since I played it in two thousand and 742 00:52:35,519 --> 00:52:39,199 like seven or whatever. Okay, should I just not? Uh? Yeah? 743 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:44,440 Are you asking me to tell you not to play Wow? So apparently 744 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:46,360 they had their like best year? Yeah, yeah, it just stop me. 745 00:52:46,519 --> 00:52:52,280 Just tell me not to. Don't you waste your life in Wow. 746 00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:55,000 Get out of there. There are other things for you to do with your 747 00:52:55,079 --> 00:53:00,719 time and your money and your energy. You are not eighteen dropping out of 748 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:07,000 college anymore. Go outside or play a different game, don't play Wow. 749 00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:14,000 Okay, I muted Mike's talking about playing Wow, so I was telling her 750 00:53:15,079 --> 00:53:20,480 for work stuff. Lately, I've just been looking deeper around the MMO space 751 00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:24,679 when I'm not traditionally an MMO player, and I have like a code for 752 00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:30,119 like this, the Wow Ultimate Edition, and I've been reading apparently last year 753 00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:36,239 was one of its best years ever. And I never I've never really gotten 754 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:38,440 into a game the way some of my friends got into Wow. I've just 755 00:53:38,519 --> 00:53:44,159 never really I think the closest, like I said, would have been a 756 00:53:44,159 --> 00:53:49,079 Warframe. But then Wow is something that I'm curious what they were doing with 757 00:53:49,159 --> 00:53:52,199 Season of Discovery, with some of the classic stuff, with the hardcore. 758 00:53:52,559 --> 00:53:54,920 I was tempted to do one of the Permit Death characters, but I also 759 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,960 just it's not that I would get sucked into it and spend all my time 760 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,320 doing that. In fact, i'd probably bounce off. It just feels so 761 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:07,440 weird to go back to Wow in twenty twenty four. There's got to be 762 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:10,119 a better like MMO to put your time into, too. I don't think 763 00:54:10,199 --> 00:54:15,280 so any better MMOs than that I played. I played a decent amount of 764 00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:17,519 final Fantasy fourteam. For what it's worth, I mean that genre I vowed 765 00:54:17,519 --> 00:54:21,719 in two thousand and forward never to get into because like I just remember seeing 766 00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:23,480 first of all, the idea of paying every month for a game was the 767 00:54:23,519 --> 00:54:25,079 craziest thing in the world. In me, I was like, what the 768 00:54:25,159 --> 00:54:29,519 fuck? Like that cannot wrap my head around that. But like I saw 769 00:54:29,559 --> 00:54:30,960 a good friend of mine that I knew au Thor junior high in high school, 770 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:34,639 great friend of mine. He was like an athlete. He was in 771 00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:37,840 med school at my college. He had this great relationship that he'd been with 772 00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:42,239 this girl for so long, and he got into Wow and he lost. 773 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,800 He dropped out of school. He uh, he got super out of shape. 774 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:49,280 He broke up with his girlfriend, like all these things and like that 775 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,119 just became what he did. He stopped going out. He sat like all 776 00:54:52,199 --> 00:54:53,719 he did was play Wow all the time. And like I wasn't super interested 777 00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:57,079 to begin with. I like Warcraft too, with the RTS, but like 778 00:54:58,079 --> 00:55:00,920 nothing about the game appealed to me anyway. But then like the money thing 779 00:55:00,119 --> 00:55:01,960 and the potential, Like and he wasn't the only case, you know, 780 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,239 you would hear about lots of people just getting sucked in it was like, 781 00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:07,639 I'm never fucking with this. I love video games, but I got enough. 782 00:55:07,639 --> 00:55:08,400 I don't need to ever play a game that I have to play for 783 00:55:08,599 --> 00:55:12,559 a thousand hour or same with Doda League, any of that shit. Just 784 00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:15,760 never. You're not wrong about how it can be so addictive that it can 785 00:55:16,159 --> 00:55:20,920 be harmful in a way. But I will I will make a shout out 786 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:29,039 about the money for some people who I'm trying to think of, like a 787 00:55:29,079 --> 00:55:35,000 good example, I know people who were like really financially struggling, sure, 788 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:38,960 and the thing that they did was they paid for a subscription to Wow, 789 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:43,719 which back then was like what ten bucks a month? Yeah, is it 790 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:49,559 not anymore? If models? Yeah, going back in the day, right 791 00:55:49,639 --> 00:55:54,360 when you're like poor eighteen year old in college or whatever or just fresh out 792 00:55:54,480 --> 00:56:00,239 and you're figuring your life out. It can be your movie ticket, it's 793 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:04,800 it's your Netflix, it's your everything, it's it is the thing that you 794 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:08,320 do for entertainment, and it's ten bucks a month is no matter how much 795 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:13,679 you play, and for an MMO, you can play that shit like forty 796 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:17,119 hours, like eighty hours a week. So for I debate the idea that 797 00:56:17,159 --> 00:56:21,599 it's like too expensive because it's monthly, because the idea is that it's it 798 00:56:21,639 --> 00:56:23,920 could be everything for your entertainment for the entire month. And I get that. 799 00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:27,519 And that was a pregame pass world where you could just pay, you 800 00:56:27,519 --> 00:56:29,639 know, a subscription service and get a bunch of different stuff. So like 801 00:56:29,679 --> 00:56:31,880 that does make sense, and I think it was more just personally win against 802 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:35,679 how I play games, where it's like I always wanted to play pretty much 803 00:56:35,679 --> 00:56:37,920 everything, you know. I know I'm saying right now, like entire genre 804 00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:39,760 as I've said no things, but like I like to play a ton of 805 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:44,559 different games, and so the idea of paying every month and possibly getting like 806 00:56:44,679 --> 00:56:47,440 way too into this and at the expense of playing other games, you know, 807 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:50,880 Like he used to play everything and then he got into Wow, and 808 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:52,440 I would ask him like, oh what do you think about this? Or 809 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:52,960 this just come out on a GameCube, be like, oh no, I'm 810 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,079 just playing Wow. You know. It's like, well, okay, that's 811 00:56:55,119 --> 00:56:58,639 all you do now. And I've seen the same thing with Doda, with 812 00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:00,800 League, with things like that, and it's just like, I don't know, 813 00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:06,079 this is not not ever how I've wanted to play games. I spend 814 00:57:06,119 --> 00:57:09,199 my time on worthwhile things like speed running quackshot for the Sega Genesis, but 815 00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:15,679 chugging prime and yes, my time is value. Yeah, okay, now 816 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:20,360 for what it's worth. I'm I'm exaggerating. I'm gonna I just am curious 817 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:23,360 what's going on the Wow, it's hardcore, permanenough mode, it's classic mode, 818 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:25,119 and people are just saying, like, last year was one of its 819 00:57:25,159 --> 00:57:30,400 best ever. I played. I never got sucked in a while. It's 820 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,239 something about it. It didn't grab me like it did other people. But 821 00:57:35,079 --> 00:57:38,280 I've just been in the space for my day job and looking into the MMO 822 00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:40,840 space more so now I'm like, huh, maybe I'll see what was going 823 00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:45,400 on last year in a while, but that would take too much time away 824 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:51,039 from Warhammer three, which has a good looking DLC coming out in two weeks. 825 00:57:51,320 --> 00:58:00,000 Oh RTS Warhammer three. Yeah, Total war War Total warkably long run 826 00:58:00,159 --> 00:58:05,039 Total War series, right, I don't. I've never played, and I've 827 00:58:05,039 --> 00:58:07,760 talked about this game like so much time. You say, like Warhammer, 828 00:58:08,039 --> 00:58:10,800 or like there's the Mice one, there's the Orc one, and like it 829 00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:16,000 all. I've heard these words decades. There's there's the forty K thing, 830 00:58:16,079 --> 00:58:21,840 and then there's the I just I've heard Warhammer words for decades and never once 831 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:23,559 had a good sense of what anyone's taking. Okay, but I have to 832 00:58:23,559 --> 00:58:28,320 point out that, like I've talked about Total War Warhammer three so much on 833 00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,679 this show that I believe you youto, Like we had a we have a 834 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:34,599 running bit about how YouTube tune out when I talk about it. Why No, 835 00:58:34,639 --> 00:58:36,760 But it just probably just sounds like a mic game. I don't think 836 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,519 I realized it was the same game over and over again. Are you fucking 837 00:58:40,559 --> 00:58:44,719 with me? No? I don't. If you put a gun to my 838 00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:47,639 head and said it is Total War Warhammer three a real game, I wouldn't 839 00:58:47,679 --> 00:58:52,920 know. You might, you might, You're losing your mind. I don't. 840 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:57,079 First of all, I don't remember anything that we do on this podcast, 841 00:58:57,119 --> 00:59:00,480 so not just Total War, but I especially don't know what the Total 842 00:59:00,519 --> 00:59:02,599 War is outside of like it used to be like a Command of Conquer type 843 00:59:02,599 --> 00:59:06,920 thing, and now apparently they're doing stuff with the rat or series with the 844 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:10,840 painted things. Okay, I don't know. I don't know. I to 845 00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:14,599 be faced down to my head coin flip. Aside from the fact that I've 846 00:59:14,639 --> 00:59:17,840 talked about this very game, I think maybe twenty separate episodes of the show. 847 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:21,480 I'm gonna say twenty times. Hang, let me let me try something, 848 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:29,000 Mary, describe Total War Warhammer three. It's a strategy game. He's 849 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:30,599 talked about it twenty times, so you got a lot of material to work 850 00:59:30,599 --> 00:59:35,599 with here. Okay, But when he talks about it, he doesn't say 851 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:39,320 like, he just tells about how he feels. So he it's a strategy 852 00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:45,360 game that no matter how much time he sinks into it, he feels like 853 00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:53,280 it still pulls at his brain. Remember him understand of his decision making? 854 00:59:53,639 --> 00:59:55,760 Yeah, wait, what tile the movie is rat to? Yeah? Yeah, 855 00:59:55,840 --> 01:00:00,360 but play now? I know, I know, I mean it's a 856 01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:05,760 call back, But what is the what is the game? I'm I'm not 857 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:07,639 mocking you, Mary, I'm saying you're on the same level I'm at right, 858 01:00:07,719 --> 01:00:12,199 Like, can you describe this video game? I listened to his passion. 859 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:15,800 I don't need to understand the mechanics played my game. I'm Mary, 860 01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:21,199 kiss let's talk about a three leg This game is a three like okay, 861 01:00:22,719 --> 01:00:25,679 side, No, you're not you're telling me you don't know what this game 862 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:28,639 is. Okay, it's not just me. Neither of us know what the 863 01:00:28,639 --> 01:00:34,760 fuck that game is. We understand fair enough that it's a strategy and there's 864 01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,760 probably mice. You're looking at the Wikipedia article right now, are you your 865 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:45,000 other monitors? Okay? Really? Okay, quick rundown, Yes, you're 866 01:00:45,079 --> 01:00:47,880 right. When I say Warhammer three, I'm referring to Total war Warhammer three. 867 01:00:49,679 --> 01:00:52,639 Okay, that is the fantasy old world side of Warhammer. There's also 868 01:00:52,679 --> 01:00:58,280 Warhammer forty thousand. There are orcs, but there's orcs in the Warhammer forty 869 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,800 thousand, which is the future sci fi the stuff. What are you trying 870 01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:08,320 to do? Explain Total war war Hammer three once? What are you trying? 871 01:01:10,239 --> 01:01:15,239 It's a four X game, so half of it that's not gonna help. 872 01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:16,639 But how do you not know what a four X game is? You're 873 01:01:16,679 --> 01:01:22,400 a video game professional and you don't know what a four X game? It's 874 01:01:22,559 --> 01:01:28,199 before more than one x. That sounds right, okay? Civilization Oh okay, 875 01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:36,000 anything made by parasymmetric tile based Yes, basically Fox into the Breach four 876 01:01:36,199 --> 01:01:39,239 x not it not in any way. No, just because it's isometric or 877 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:45,519 tile based does not make it four x four X. It's explore, expand 878 01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:52,159 exploit. I forget. It's basically civilization games, but it's not exactly real 879 01:01:52,199 --> 01:01:55,119 time strategy because there's also the turn based element. Okay, and then it's 880 01:01:55,159 --> 01:02:00,559 not it's not completely Grand Strategy because there are real time elements. It's like 881 01:02:00,599 --> 01:02:07,800 a strategy that's more if it's just the civilization aspect and there's not you're also 882 01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:10,679 managing like there's kind of interchangeable between four X and Grand Strategy, but that's 883 01:02:10,679 --> 01:02:15,119 something like I guess parts of Iron four would kind of blend between them, 884 01:02:15,119 --> 01:02:19,320 where you're actually managing supply lines during World War Two, that kind of stuff. 885 01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:23,199 Like Grand Strategy, you're not just managing separate armies, you're actually managing 886 01:02:23,239 --> 01:02:28,440 every intricacy of war. So it's like the Madden franchise mode where you like 887 01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:30,960 set the price of hot dogs. Yeah, I guess, so that would 888 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:34,519 be Grand Strategy compared to the real time strategy of an actual game of Madden. 889 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,000 Okay, I like that. Yeah, But Total War Rammer three is 890 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:42,400 half of it is turn based campaign maps, and it's more like civilization where 891 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:46,159 you're building up individual cities, but then you're building up armies and when they 892 01:02:46,199 --> 01:02:50,719 meet on the map, you go into real time battles. What about the 893 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:54,079 chaos gods. Oh there's four of them, and there's factions revolving around them. 894 01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:57,760 There's nerves. You're right, I don't think she's looking at the Wikipedia. 895 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:01,599 Yeah. There's Nerd of Hustlence and decay and the Cycle of Life, 896 01:03:02,039 --> 01:03:07,840 and his followers are all about just uh, the plague and how it kills 897 01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:14,000 and then revives and fertilizes. Then there's Slanash, who is all about excess 898 01:03:14,039 --> 01:03:20,559 and greed and classic pleasure pleasure, and his followers are all about just like, 899 01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:23,800 uh, you know, seeking pleasure at its highest amounts. And then 900 01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:28,440 there's more of a real time hybrid four x guy like sort of the Stars 901 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:31,639 and Showgun Total War. Starships Unlimited is really good. Show Gun Total War 902 01:03:31,719 --> 01:03:35,559 is in the same series that we're talking about right now. Sure. Yeah, 903 01:03:35,559 --> 01:03:39,199 So I'm saying like Glass dread Lords was a good one. Yeah. 904 01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:44,760 See, Hype and Evo was great. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. 905 01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:47,320 I like how the genre has been extended by gamers who have supported free sopper 906 01:03:47,400 --> 01:03:52,599 releases like free seven, free Calling, free writing. Yeah, it's Scotty 907 01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:57,280 Jails coming out soon. I'm looking forward to it. What do you do 908 01:03:57,360 --> 01:04:02,159 in it? Just more of that. But they they're reworking factions, but 909 01:04:02,199 --> 01:04:06,480 they're reworking some of the They're reworking two of the original factions for the first 910 01:04:06,519 --> 01:04:11,760 game, and they're reworking one of the launch factions from the third game. 911 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:19,199 I just like the idea that their marketing is like some more of that boy 912 01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:23,199 forgot that gets out a lot and it go to restaurants and has friends and 913 01:04:23,199 --> 01:04:27,719 stuff. You like some nerdy ass games. I know. Honestly, Okay, 914 01:04:28,079 --> 01:04:31,159 here's here's a real thing. Now that I'm not an editorial and like, 915 01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:35,440 not forced but kind of forced to play everything, I really do. 916 01:04:35,719 --> 01:04:39,440 It's one of the great joys of my life to be able to just play 917 01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:43,920 like strategy games. I'm actually in the mood for. It's nice. And 918 01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:45,519 not to say I'm not gonna like I want to play. I mean, 919 01:04:45,559 --> 01:04:51,519 I love Prince of Persia Bilastros awesome. I'm still going through Infinite Wealth. 920 01:04:51,719 --> 01:04:56,440 That Infinite Wealth might actually I have done quite the one ad of that game. 921 01:04:56,440 --> 01:04:58,800 That might be my leading game of the year right now. I've not 922 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:02,440 played Rebirth yet or a Rise of the Ronan, and I'm very excited for 923 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:05,719 Home World three, which is a strategy game in may you don't have to 924 01:05:05,719 --> 01:05:10,199 tell me. Yeah, I know Home World was one of the original arts 925 01:05:10,280 --> 01:05:14,440 is at the time of like Command of Conquer, But yeah, no, 926 01:05:14,519 --> 01:05:19,239 I like some deep cut games. Yes, you might be a smarter game. 927 01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:26,599 There's no butt stomp. Oh sorry sorry, double jump Okay, that's 928 01:05:26,639 --> 01:05:30,079 what Mount rushmore of things you can do? Yeah, sorry sorry. You 929 01:05:30,079 --> 01:05:32,360 can't put out a bottle of Prime that distracts a guard while you shoot him 930 01:05:32,360 --> 01:05:38,239 with a blow dart in the neck. Hey, al right, sounds pretty 931 01:05:38,239 --> 01:05:42,880 cool. Yeah, that sounds pretty cool, Mike. You let's call up. 932 01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,800 Let's call up Hideosan Coachman. I fucked that up. Let's call up 933 01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:53,440 coach Masan. Get some Prime in Metal Gear Solid three remake with Hideo and 934 01:05:53,519 --> 01:06:00,199 drink Prime one day. You'll regret your words indeeds about Prime. Never unless 935 01:06:00,199 --> 01:06:06,239 it makes me stinky. It's there's evidence, there's evidence that suggests it's not 936 01:06:06,360 --> 01:06:10,360 like bad bad. It's just noticing a little bit and I've never noticed it 937 01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,840 before. So Prime, that's the worst of it. Bad at it? 938 01:06:13,920 --> 01:06:19,559 What does Prime smell like? Candy Skittles? Really? Nothing that can't be 939 01:06:19,599 --> 01:06:23,760 good for you. It's like the popsicles with the where you cut the tops 940 01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:25,840 off. But it's like if you melted that and just filled a jug with 941 01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:30,360 it. That sounds good. Yeah, it is water, good for you. 942 01:06:30,639 --> 01:06:35,000 I can Google. You're gonna find good stuff. Uh oh, Mary, 943 01:06:35,079 --> 01:06:39,599 we can all Wikipedia. Mary, thank you for backing me up on 944 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,719 neither of us knowing what the game. I didn't back you up. I 945 01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:45,639 fucking don't know. I know me too, but you help prove my point. 946 01:06:46,039 --> 01:06:48,920 No, you called me out, and I was not able to do 947 01:06:49,119 --> 01:06:53,880 anything to get out of anything. We're both it's not a solidarity thing. 948 01:06:54,079 --> 01:07:00,199 I didn't want to be involved. You can't make me in solidarity. You 949 01:07:00,239 --> 01:07:02,159 with you. I was trying to get away. Look, we're a team. 950 01:07:02,239 --> 01:07:05,760 We did it. We didn't know something to get you. You're an 951 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:11,519 ignorant, bad friend. And I listened to him talk about I knew just 952 01:07:11,559 --> 01:07:16,559 as much as I knew what I knew about the chaos gods. What is 953 01:07:16,639 --> 01:07:19,280 your head turned? Why your head turn? You're looking at something else now 954 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:27,159 the realm of chaos. Uh huh. Bac Lava has imprisoned the Wounded Ersen 955 01:07:27,280 --> 01:07:30,840 and the Forge of Souls in the realm of chaos. I know all about 956 01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:32,320 that. We know. You knew so much about this. You've been listening 957 01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:38,400 to Mike. She listens, so that's what she does. Every word, 958 01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:44,760 Dan, what else are you playing? Oh god, this is not gonna. 959 01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,360 I'm just the name of this game. After Mike mocking me for playing 960 01:07:47,440 --> 01:08:00,719 stupid, I've been playing Yellow Taxi Goes Room. You fucking moron. You 961 01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:04,760 going up about these like deep complex strategic poor X games. I play Yellow 962 01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:12,880 Taxi goes Room. Tell us more about this Yellow Taxi. Tell us about 963 01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:15,520 it. You wouldn't believe it. I Uh, it's a n sixty four 964 01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:18,560 throwback, and I enjoy that because I don't know, if you know. 965 01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:23,920 I like the Nintendo sixty four and it's like a platformer but you're a car 966 01:08:24,279 --> 01:08:27,680 and it's weird and it's funny and it's a collectithon and it's uh. I 967 01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:30,800 played it on a plane to Philadelphia. It made me laugh and I liked 968 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:35,199 getting all those coins and stuff. There's a Hub World. It's a throwback 969 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:41,199 on PC that released this year to the n sixty four era. Correct, 970 01:08:41,359 --> 01:08:44,399 it's like like a like the same way that like a Yuku Lele or a 971 01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:46,520 cave story or things like that I have done. I feel like you're starting 972 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:50,680 to see more of those sixty four throwbacks. These it's like inspired by yeah, 973 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:53,520 totally, but it's got its own weird sense of here, we're in 974 01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:56,439 everything, and just the fact that like you're a little car driving around instead 975 01:08:56,439 --> 01:09:00,560 of like a little mascot platformer. It's a yeah, it's fun so good. 976 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:05,880 Yeah, that's Yellow Taxi Goes Room. It's so funny. It's just 977 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:11,680 like hearing two adults in the room and then some fucking moron comes and goes 978 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:16,159 I've been playing Yellow Taxi Goes Room. I'm ten years older than I. 979 01:09:16,239 --> 01:09:24,600 Like getting the coins. I'm jerking my logan pole juice and playing Yellow Taxi 980 01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:27,800 Goes Room. Yeah, good job, Dan, Go take a shower. 981 01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:32,920 Mike's going to vineyards and talking about four X strategyn't leave your house because you're 982 01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:42,600 battling a family of woodpeckers. Why are you stinking when I run? Now? 983 01:09:46,359 --> 01:09:49,479 This is like it's always sunny. The farther into the the farther into 984 01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:54,000 the show they get, the more they become caricatures of themselves. In season 985 01:09:54,039 --> 01:10:00,680 one, oh I took six seconds off my quackshot time this morning a fucking 986 01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:06,760 really reductive potion. The other day it was like actually offended me. I 987 01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:13,960 spin on the waiter. Oh god, I'm bringing Nixon back from the dead 988 01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:18,640 and I'm campaigning for him. Road finished his story, but we're gonna do 989 01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:29,720 it. Ronald Nixon's cozy Tour campaign for president. Oh god, games, 990 01:10:30,319 --> 01:10:34,479 I have one more that I think actually I've really enjoyed and so I'm excited 991 01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:39,079 to talk to you guys about it. It's called Children of the Sun. 992 01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:46,119 Have you heard of this game. It's a sniper game. It's a sniper 993 01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:54,800 visually styled to hell. So the person who made this and it seems like 994 01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:57,640 one of those like one person games, it gives me a one person game 995 01:10:57,760 --> 01:11:04,119 vibe. Uh Published by Devolver, this game gives you some of what's it 996 01:11:04,159 --> 01:11:10,800 called, uh Hot? What's the one where you're also sniper. It'll give 997 01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:15,079 you some super hot vibes and you might be like, that game was cool 998 01:11:15,079 --> 01:11:18,319 and stylized. This is similar. It is a sniper that is very cool 999 01:11:18,359 --> 01:11:23,199 and stylized, but it's a totally different concept. The concept is you put 1000 01:11:23,199 --> 01:11:29,479 someone in a space and you say, shoot these six people, and so 1001 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:31,920 you get to like tag them all metal gear style, like you tag their 1002 01:11:31,920 --> 01:11:33,920 little heads. You know where they are and where they're walking, and you 1003 01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:40,399 see their AI patterns and you decide to take your first shot. And when 1004 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:45,960 you take your first shot, let's say it shoots Guy one. Your second 1005 01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:49,399 shot is from Guy one now and you're that's a starting point. Yeah, 1006 01:11:49,399 --> 01:11:53,920 that's right. And when you if you're able to successfully murder Guy two, 1007 01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:57,720 that's your new starting point. And then you shoot Guy three, and you 1008 01:11:57,760 --> 01:12:01,840 do that until you kill all six people and you create a path. And 1009 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:06,399 it's neat because once you've killed everybody, it shows you your path top down, 1010 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:12,880 bird's eye view style. It shows your unique path. It also gives 1011 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:16,119 you a unique scoring system. You get more points for headshots. Oh, 1012 01:12:16,119 --> 01:12:20,760 this is a cool one. You get more points for being able to kill 1013 01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:25,520 people in succession within like maybe two seconds of each other. So if I'm 1014 01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:29,399 able to like boom boom, boom boom and like ZipZap around the map and 1015 01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:33,399 kill all the people quickly and finish my murders, that's a higher score than 1016 01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:38,439 someone who takes their time thinks about it. There's additional points for distance, 1017 01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:42,760 which I think is really neat. So if I'm taking the longest distance between 1018 01:12:43,079 --> 01:12:48,760 my people and zigzagging around the map, which also makes a fun design that's 1019 01:12:48,880 --> 01:12:53,840 worth more than shooting people really close to each other. So is there almost 1020 01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:56,920 like this like Tony Hawk like combo score element of it? Like, is 1021 01:12:56,920 --> 01:13:00,439 there a like leader board at the end? Yes? Not? Is there 1022 01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:04,680 a leaderboard? Dan, there's a friend leaderboard? Oh no, And I'm 1023 01:13:04,720 --> 01:13:10,279 going for Okay, Grub is fucking crazy. His scores are out of this 1024 01:13:10,399 --> 01:13:15,039 world. But I've been going for Grub and Alex and I've been getting a 1025 01:13:15,039 --> 01:13:19,279 lot of their scores beat. So I challenge you, Dan White. It 1026 01:13:19,359 --> 01:13:25,520 has so it's very different than Neon White. Friends scoring system is so addictive 1027 01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:29,039 to be able to beat your friend's scores. And like again, I just 1028 01:13:29,039 --> 01:13:31,319 have to say this, Grub is fucking out of his mind. His scores 1029 01:13:31,319 --> 01:13:35,159 are so high that in some of these he's in like the top fifty of 1030 01:13:35,199 --> 01:13:40,920 all gamers, which is nuts. Yeah, real, what Mike, what's 1031 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:44,359 happening? Is the right? All right? So just now when you said 1032 01:13:44,359 --> 01:13:45,840 it's like Neon White, I was like, Dan, I just said that. 1033 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:48,319 I was like, oh wait, I muted my microphone like twenty seconds 1034 01:13:48,359 --> 01:13:53,800 ago to fart. I forgot to unmued it. But I legitimately said it's 1035 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:56,800 just like Neon White and then you said it immediately. You're so ignorant, 1036 01:13:56,840 --> 01:14:00,880 Mike. It looks like a yeah, crossbitch, I mean Neon White, 1037 01:14:00,079 --> 01:14:03,720 and like you mentioned super hot. And then I like the path of the 1038 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:09,279 bullet it shows at the end based on the Steam videos kind of what the 1039 01:14:09,319 --> 01:14:14,119 hell is the hotline Miami almost like the overhead. Sure it has a hotline 1040 01:14:14,159 --> 01:14:18,680 Miami Vibe too, because at some point you are going for speed because there's 1041 01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:21,800 there's a couple other points things that I think are interesting. So yes, 1042 01:14:23,119 --> 01:14:27,600 doing a combo between people will give you a higher score. It costs you 1043 01:14:28,239 --> 01:14:32,319 points per bullet. So if you can kill multiple people with like one bullet, 1044 01:14:32,359 --> 01:14:35,800 that's where too. Yeah, because this video I'm looking at is like 1045 01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:42,000 he got to a guy in a cabin where he couldn't see the people below 1046 01:14:42,079 --> 01:14:45,640 him, so he shot to this arrow like on the outskirts of the map 1047 01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:49,479 to readjust but that cost it him points because he had to use like the 1048 01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:56,359 maps shortcut. Yeah, there's a couple like really interesting things. I want 1049 01:14:56,359 --> 01:14:58,199 to be careful with how much I give away. I don't think this is 1050 01:14:58,199 --> 01:15:01,279 actually giving way too much. There's little things like you can shoot. Uh, 1051 01:15:01,359 --> 01:15:04,560 you can shoot like the cars, you can use. There's explosion this 1052 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:09,159 game, like you can you can kill people in unique ways, which I 1053 01:15:09,159 --> 01:15:14,600 don't think everyone will think about. And uh, there is a point in 1054 01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:18,319 the game where it starts to really alter what you're able to do. And 1055 01:15:18,359 --> 01:15:21,399 I think that's really cool. And Grub ain't there yet because I've been beating 1056 01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:25,840 some levels and his name is an almost more so I know he hasn't gotten 1057 01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:31,479 there's some crazy fucking levels coming up now where they're starting to allow you to 1058 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:39,119 like manipulate the bullet very slightly bend the bullet. You can bend where it's 1059 01:15:39,159 --> 01:15:42,880 so you can bend the bullet. You can do this really cool thing now. 1060 01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,000 They they put a lot of rules behind it. You can't just do 1061 01:15:45,079 --> 01:15:47,720 whatever you want, but yes, you can slightly bend bullets. And there's 1062 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:53,520 this really neat thing you can do now where you can shoot your gun and 1063 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:56,239 then maybe like halfway through will be like, okay, now I want that 1064 01:15:56,279 --> 01:15:59,319 to be my new spot where I can pick up a spot. It's like 1065 01:15:59,319 --> 01:16:02,039 say, there's like a hiding mind a wall you can shoot and then be 1066 01:16:02,199 --> 01:16:06,319 the bullets new trajectory. And then like and then completely change. It's really 1067 01:16:06,399 --> 01:16:10,439 fucking cool. I think this is a very well designed game. I think 1068 01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:15,760 it's very interesting. The friend systems that you can like compete against your friends 1069 01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:20,640 awesome, it's not. There's a couple quality of life that I wish they 1070 01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:24,560 had that they didn't. For example, in a lot of those other games, 1071 01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:27,279 you can watch other people's replays. In this game, you cannot watch 1072 01:16:27,319 --> 01:16:31,439 other people no replay system, so like you have to imagine how they got 1073 01:16:31,439 --> 01:16:41,560 that score and do your best. You Also, yeah, and uh, 1074 01:16:41,880 --> 01:16:45,319 you cannot see the friends scores from the menu. So if I want to 1075 01:16:45,359 --> 01:16:48,880 be like I want to beat Grub, I have to go into the level, 1076 01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:54,760 watch this little intro cut scene which like who cares right, and then 1077 01:16:54,840 --> 01:17:00,159 like and then like click to the friends scores and find out that Grub has 1078 01:17:00,199 --> 01:17:02,159 like an insane score before I can compete against him. So I find that 1079 01:17:02,239 --> 01:17:05,640 to be a little annoying, considering, like, I'm a very competitive person, 1080 01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:09,439 and that's why I'm getting really into this game. But I think if 1081 01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:13,640 there were no friends and it had nothing to do with that, I genuinely 1082 01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:18,520 believe that this is a very interesting take on the sniper puzzle genre. Of 1083 01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:21,159 games. I don't know how many others there are. I think this is 1084 01:17:21,199 --> 01:17:26,680 an extremely well made game in terms of like just style and the concept of 1085 01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:30,119 it. It's awesome. Oh you can fucking shoot birds and then use them 1086 01:17:30,119 --> 01:17:32,439 to shoot from It's so cool, Like it's wow. It's a very neat 1087 01:17:32,479 --> 01:17:35,520 game. So I do. I really do recommend it. I will say 1088 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:41,600 though, one more warning. For whatever reason, this designer really likes s 1089 01:17:41,600 --> 01:17:45,479 flashy stroby lights. It is not good for people who are like epileptic or 1090 01:17:45,520 --> 01:17:49,960 have issues with flashy things. I didn't see any no, and some of 1091 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:54,479 it was like inexcusable. It was just like you are trying to give me 1092 01:17:55,039 --> 01:17:58,520 a problem with the flashing going on. So I don't care for any of 1093 01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:00,439 the c I skip every cuts in this game. I couldn't give a shit 1094 01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:03,520 about the cut scenes. Sure do you think this would be a good playing 1095 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:08,239 game? But I'm trying to like load up these devices. That's a really 1096 01:18:08,319 --> 01:18:14,960 good question. I think that it will be. Yes, I am playing 1097 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:18,119 it with nothing but a mouse right now, Okay, not a lot of 1098 01:18:18,159 --> 01:18:21,199 keyboards because you're not like moving. It's not like was the It's you're just 1099 01:18:21,239 --> 01:18:27,319 shooting and shooting and shooting. You're just shooting. I'm sure that they've solved 1100 01:18:27,399 --> 01:18:31,520 it for a uh for a Steam deck I played it with. Like I 1101 01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:35,920 said, I played it on my PC and every button was mapped to my 1102 01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:40,319 mouse. It was like move your mouse left and right click, right click 1103 01:18:40,399 --> 01:18:45,279 and the middle wheel. That's it. Okay, five button game. It's 1104 01:18:45,279 --> 01:18:49,680 crazy. It's good. The story sounds like Mandy, like the plot and 1105 01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:57,560 all the psychedelic graphics are very psychedelic. If you're like a like PS one 1106 01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:01,840 era or no, like early v R graphics, Mandy. You're killing a 1107 01:19:02,399 --> 01:19:05,720 cult that like, you're getting revenge on a cult. That sounds great to 1108 01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:11,439 me. Yeah, the poblems, you're transparent that you're killing cultists. Yeah. 1109 01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:14,279 And it is kind of fucked up, like all the cut scenes are 1110 01:19:14,279 --> 01:19:15,800 basically like kill them all, like fuck them up, and it's like kind 1111 01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:21,039 of like sadistic and weird. But the gameplay is so good. I've I've 1112 01:19:21,079 --> 01:19:24,760 like overlooked anything that I'm like, I don't really care for that because the 1113 01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:30,359 gameplay is amazing and it just keeps every level they add something new. They 1114 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:34,680 just added armor, and it's really fun because sometimes there'll be a guy right 1115 01:19:34,720 --> 01:19:36,479 next to you, and you'll be like, I can kill that guy, 1116 01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:40,239 but he's wearing armor. And if you want to kill the guys with armor, 1117 01:19:40,279 --> 01:19:42,720 you got to be really far away, which means now I have to 1118 01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:46,760 kill like four men really far away so that I have enough distance for my 1119 01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:50,239 bullet to gain enough speed so that I can kill the armor guy. That's 1120 01:19:50,279 --> 01:19:58,960 fun. You guys will like it picked up. Yeah, Devolver did it 1121 01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:00,920 again. They have a really I always say this, like I just feel 1122 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:03,520 like, usually not all the time, but like when developer published something, 1123 01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:06,239 I'm always like, I gotta check that out because we have a vibe, 1124 01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:12,159 and this game is well made, is a well well designed puzzle sniper game, 1125 01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,640 and their brand is super strong. Like they they do have a vibe 1126 01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:18,039 to them. It's yeah, yeah, you kind of know at least the 1127 01:20:18,119 --> 01:20:21,239 vibe you're gonna get with a developer game. And yeah, they also have 1128 01:20:21,359 --> 01:20:25,880 like pretty reasonable price points. Again, this game is fifteen bucks, which 1129 01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:28,600 I think is pretty reasonable. I have not I haven't beat it. I 1130 01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:32,199 think I've put four hours into this game, and I'm loving it. It 1131 01:20:32,239 --> 01:20:35,359 looks great. I mean that sounds good. I'm going to play this on 1132 01:20:36,239 --> 01:20:42,039 EC tomorrow. I would love that. Let me know on the scoreboard because 1133 01:20:42,079 --> 01:20:44,920 we're buds. You should see my scores on there, and then you should 1134 01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:48,840 see Grubs. It's nuts. So like my scores are like two thousand points, 1135 01:20:49,399 --> 01:20:53,680 Navarro is usually like right with me, like we're both right around two 1136 01:20:53,680 --> 01:20:56,640 thousand, and then like Grubb will be like eight thousand, you know, 1137 01:20:56,760 --> 01:21:00,640 top fifty of the United States, Like what the fuck does he did this 1138 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:02,760 with me? On White is like he played that first like chapter or whatever, 1139 01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:06,560 of like ten levels and got crazy scores on all of them. But 1140 01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:09,479 you, you know, we wanted to see at the end of the game, 1141 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:13,359 and you just his scores drop off early. He just super perfects some 1142 01:21:13,439 --> 01:21:15,159 which which is a way to do it for sure, But he doesn't like 1143 01:21:15,239 --> 01:21:17,880 do the whole thing like me. I mean, it's his vibe. I'm 1144 01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:21,840 the opposite actually, So like I just get through the level. Beating a 1145 01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:27,520 level is solving a puzzle, right, like figuring out the right way, 1146 01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:29,680 and there is no right way, right, Like, you will beat these 1147 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:32,960 levels very different the way I do it. But getting through a level is 1148 01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:36,239 a huge achievement. And then when you see your score and you see grub 1149 01:21:36,279 --> 01:21:40,279 score, you'll be like, if I replayed this level half a dozen times, 1150 01:21:40,319 --> 01:21:42,680 I might be able to beat that. I am fucking doing that. 1151 01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,920 I move on to the next level, and so I'm on like level like 1152 01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:49,880 twenty seven, and Grubs stopped after like level fourteen. He's just he's just 1153 01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:54,239 like an addict for the ones that he did. Yeah, I think I'm 1154 01:21:54,319 --> 01:21:57,159 closer to you, Mary and that. Like I'll beat the game and then 1155 01:21:57,199 --> 01:21:59,399 I'll go back and I'll be like, all right, let's get everything, 1156 01:21:59,399 --> 01:22:01,279 all the ones that are like bronze level. I'll get the meddle for that, 1157 01:22:01,399 --> 01:22:03,119 and it's like, okay, now these aren't silver, and I'll like 1158 01:22:03,439 --> 01:22:08,479 just kind of go around, you know, scattershot though. I don't think 1159 01:22:08,520 --> 01:22:12,600 I was able to beat him even once, not on one level. Now, 1160 01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:15,920 you're really making me want to get in there. I couldn't. I 1161 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:18,439 said this on stream too. It's not that I have to beat him all 1162 01:22:18,439 --> 01:22:21,680 the time. You just gotta beat him once and then you screenshot it and 1163 01:22:21,720 --> 01:22:25,960 be like, job, you're no good. Job didn't job, You're no 1164 01:22:26,039 --> 01:22:30,800 good. You just do one. You just gotta get one. I think 1165 01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:32,199 we had that for like thirty six hours. Marry me and you with that 1166 01:22:32,439 --> 01:22:36,199 what was the hyper Demon game or whatever. Yeah, yeah, it's like 1167 01:22:36,239 --> 01:22:40,479 we had like with that that was just one level, you know, that's 1168 01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:43,479 all there. Yeah, there's like one little thing, and it is fun 1169 01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:45,800 to beat your friends. Like I think this is a very important aspect of 1170 01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:49,640 this game is that there is a score. I don't think I fully understand 1171 01:22:49,640 --> 01:22:53,399 the score system, but they try and explain the score system to you. 1172 01:22:55,520 --> 01:23:00,119 I think it's very addictive to try and perfect the system that it's teaching you 1173 01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:02,800 so that you can get a really high score in some of these levels. 1174 01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:08,119 But again, like I said, even even beating some of these levels is 1175 01:23:08,159 --> 01:23:11,479 tricky. So when you beat them, you'll be proud of yourself and be 1176 01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:14,319 like that's it. I'm done, Like that's a that's an achievement, and 1177 01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:18,600 you know, in itself, just to get them done. Then it sounds 1178 01:23:19,079 --> 01:23:21,840 I'm excited. I don't play that soon. I'm glad that you guys are 1179 01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:27,039 into it. I really liked it. I think it's really neat all right 1180 01:23:27,159 --> 01:23:31,359 because when do emails or okay, as usual, you can write into fire 1181 01:23:31,359 --> 01:23:35,319 skate Pass at gmail dot com questions, comments, concerns, et cetera. 1182 01:23:36,039 --> 01:23:40,039 Write in questions about video games or anything else you might read them on the 1183 01:23:40,039 --> 01:23:45,720 show. Mary, do you want to read this first one we have from 1184 01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:48,479 listener Eric? Actually yeah, actually no, not to do the thing. 1185 01:23:48,600 --> 01:23:51,720 This makes more sense with Dan because of what he's been talking about. Oh 1186 01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:57,000 okay, uh last Fortnight, you all discuss how music can provide a boost 1187 01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:00,600 when running. What are your favorite workout songs and music? Eric? Oh, 1188 01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:03,720 I this is something I've actually been let me get my Spotify. Uh 1189 01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:10,079 yeah, I uh, I'm finding that the thing that gets me the most 1190 01:24:10,159 --> 01:24:13,359 kind of hyped up when I'm running or working out is obviously it started with 1191 01:24:13,359 --> 01:24:15,039 like rocky music, you know, like it was always that's the classic. 1192 01:24:15,079 --> 01:24:18,840 You know, it's the most generic, like or most what's the word I'm 1193 01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:23,039 looking for, you know, it's the most obvious, like this is the 1194 01:24:23,079 --> 01:24:26,520 music that listening when you're working out, but that like has extended almost to 1195 01:24:26,760 --> 01:24:29,479 like I don't know what genre I would call this, like rap of like 1196 01:24:30,079 --> 01:24:36,479 boxing, walkout music type stuff like just aggressive confident. Uh yes, but 1197 01:24:38,079 --> 01:24:40,760 I remember like the fight night menu we would have like you know, Victory 1198 01:24:40,840 --> 01:24:44,840 with with Biggie and Pup Daddy and then like Creed. I watched Creed three 1199 01:24:44,880 --> 01:24:47,800 recently, and uh, Nipsey, Nipsey Hustle that last time that I checked 1200 01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:50,479 song Diamond Dame comes out to, and so I've gotten into Nipsey Hustle. 1201 01:24:50,479 --> 01:24:54,920 I'm listening to him a lot while I'm running Meek Mill because Mick Mill was 1202 01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:59,720 in that the Creed thing. They they layered Lord Nose over the Gift rock 1203 01:25:00,039 --> 01:25:03,119 music, but it's the rocky it's a game soundtrack. But it's just that, 1204 01:25:03,199 --> 01:25:05,000 like this is what I listened to as well. It's meek Mil, 1205 01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:10,520 it's Nipsy, It's it's also like Kendrick It's yeah, yeah, yes, 1206 01:25:10,560 --> 01:25:12,439 I'm starting to do with all that, and I'm liking it a lot. 1207 01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:14,600 But it's the same way that like back in the day, I would watch 1208 01:25:14,680 --> 01:25:17,119 ECW and you know, when I was only listening to classic rock and stuff. 1209 01:25:17,279 --> 01:25:21,319 Now I'm hearing Pantera. Now I'm hearing you know, like Metallica and 1210 01:25:21,359 --> 01:25:24,920 things like this, and like I'm getting into like more recent at the time 1211 01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:28,239 stuff you know, Rage against the Machine things like that. So yeah, 1212 01:25:28,239 --> 01:25:31,600 I think now I'm actually like getting a like I haven't really listened to hip 1213 01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:34,399 hop much since the early two thousands, and so now it's just like, 1214 01:25:34,760 --> 01:25:38,319 wow, any suggestions. I was talking to jan about this. Yeah, 1215 01:25:38,319 --> 01:25:40,760 it's like Meek mil Nipsey Hustle, like you know, any just like really 1216 01:25:40,920 --> 01:25:44,680 dream confident, what's that? Do you have? Dreamville anything? My dream 1217 01:25:44,720 --> 01:25:46,479 for Anthem by Dreamville is a really good song that I haven't No, no, 1218 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:50,920 it's similar. It's on Creed three. Oh okay, I forget when 1219 01:25:50,920 --> 01:25:54,840 it comes on in Creed three, but it's in Creed three. Yeah, 1220 01:25:55,119 --> 01:25:57,359 even just like albums that I should check out, and I can just kind 1221 01:25:57,359 --> 01:26:00,239 of cherry pick songs that I want to put on my like exercise playlist things 1222 01:26:00,279 --> 01:26:01,199 like that, but like, yeah, I've also got like some days it's 1223 01:26:01,239 --> 01:26:04,680 like, okay, I just want to listen to Megadeth and Alice in Chains 1224 01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:08,399 and like more like a metal playlist or something like that. So and then 1225 01:26:08,399 --> 01:26:10,479 I've got like a big one where just like let's just put it all together. 1226 01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:12,560 So uh yeah, it just kind of depends on what a feeling that 1227 01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:15,720 day. Yeah, sound of my Ceremony My Nipsy Hustle is probably a song 1228 01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:18,920 you have. Which one sounded my Ceremony? I don't. I've just been 1229 01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:23,079 listening to a Victory Lap so far, which is like that sound my ceremony 1230 01:26:23,159 --> 01:26:25,720 is really good. Okay, okay, cool, I'll check it out, 1231 01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:31,479 but really quick. I just because it's like related my uh. I listened 1232 01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:36,239 to very similar music when I'm working out, but like more specific. There's 1233 01:26:36,279 --> 01:26:41,800 a lot of like Meek Mill does this, Future does it where it's like 1234 01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:47,920 rocky sound bites but oh set as a bassline to the like a hip hop 1235 01:26:47,960 --> 01:26:51,600 song. It's really good. I send me any of. A few weeks 1236 01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:56,319 ago, I said, like, like was almost done my workout. Then 1237 01:26:56,359 --> 01:26:59,640 this came on and I recognized what they were doing with the rocky bassline, 1238 01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:01,199 and I I was being a douche and I said, like I did, 1239 01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:05,800 I did another sixteen sets. Okay, let me look at it and maybe 1240 01:27:05,800 --> 01:27:10,159 added yeah yeah, but yeah love that. We should each add a song 1241 01:27:10,239 --> 01:27:14,159 from each other's and run to it and see what it's like. We're just 1242 01:27:14,159 --> 01:27:17,000 gonna give each other a fake one to no, I'm gonna give it one. 1243 01:27:17,159 --> 01:27:19,880 You know what's a really good hype of Boogie in Your Butt by Eddie 1244 01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:25,920 Murphy. That's a good one. I'm writing it down. The Alcot by 1245 01:27:25,960 --> 01:27:30,600 the National is really good for working out too. Weird goodbyes by The National 1246 01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:34,239 featuring Bony Verar really good. Oh they're so sad and slow. No, 1247 01:27:34,359 --> 01:27:40,880 they're sick for working out. You'll be crying while you work out. I 1248 01:27:40,960 --> 01:27:58,399 was digging about She's Gonna Die the yellow text he goes through YO tip tip 1249 01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:02,560 for anyone that has really changed my music listening while I'm running. I got 1250 01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:05,560 the bone conduction headphones, and I'd heard about those a lot when I was 1251 01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:09,840 starting a bike a lot, and now that I'm running too, I went 1252 01:28:09,880 --> 01:28:12,239 ahead and purchase because then I can use them for running in cycling. So 1253 01:28:12,279 --> 01:28:15,279 it's the thing where it goes around your head, so they're not gonna come 1254 01:28:15,319 --> 01:28:17,000 out of your ears or anything. But nothing goes in your ears. They 1255 01:28:17,039 --> 01:28:20,359 just go like over, and then there's some little things like press like in 1256 01:28:20,399 --> 01:28:25,119 front of your ears, and it's just like shooting sound into your skull, 1257 01:28:25,359 --> 01:28:27,439 like not for your ear drums, and it's not good. So you can 1258 01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:29,840 hear it. It's a safety thing. So it's like if you're riding a 1259 01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:31,920 bike or you're running, you can hear cars. You can hear things like 1260 01:28:31,960 --> 01:28:34,239 that, and they are not going to come out of here, like you 1261 01:28:34,239 --> 01:28:36,600 can shake your head. You can check blind spots things like that. Nothing's 1262 01:28:36,600 --> 01:28:42,159 fallen out. It has been fantastic for running and biking. That's pretty cool. 1263 01:28:42,560 --> 01:28:45,560 Yeah, they're called a like shocks pro. I think it's like shokz, 1264 01:28:45,960 --> 01:28:49,359 but game turn. I'd be interested. I don't care for my Apple 1265 01:28:49,520 --> 01:28:53,920 iPod whatever is. I don't care for them. I don't care for them 1266 01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:56,680 at all. I feel like they do not hold a charge. I swear 1267 01:28:56,720 --> 01:28:59,119 to God, I charge them all day and then I'll go on a run. 1268 01:28:59,159 --> 01:29:01,199 In like fifty minutes into the run, it'll be like we're running out 1269 01:29:01,199 --> 01:29:05,239 of juice. And it's like you they're like two years old, and I 1270 01:29:05,279 --> 01:29:09,880 know apple products are meant to die after a few years, but it's just, 1271 01:29:10,359 --> 01:29:12,840 you know, it was just like a hundred bucks, like I would 1272 01:29:12,840 --> 01:29:15,680 have thought they would have lasted a little longer. It doesn't sound right because 1273 01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:18,600 I don't I feel like I can go on, like you know, several 1274 01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:21,960 long bike rides like hours and hours and they're still going. But they charge 1275 01:29:21,960 --> 01:29:25,159 in the case. Are you putting them in the case? They charged in 1276 01:29:25,199 --> 01:29:28,079 the case, but I think that the case, like you know, it 1277 01:29:28,119 --> 01:29:30,199 takes a long time, and I just feel like I just think they're old 1278 01:29:30,279 --> 01:29:33,039 and the battery is dying and I've had enough, so I'd like to move 1279 01:29:33,079 --> 01:29:41,199 on from them. My suggestion is, I've been getting really into Uh this 1280 01:29:41,239 --> 01:29:45,279 is strictly workout. I don't listen to this any other time unless I'm working 1281 01:29:45,319 --> 01:29:47,960 out. I do not listen to this like in my free time. I 1282 01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:53,239 do not listen to this when I'm working. It's just what I'm working out. 1283 01:29:53,479 --> 01:30:00,000 It's Galantis and it's a song specifically called Peanut Butter Jelly, and it's 1284 01:30:00,239 --> 01:30:10,039 really good. And I Galantis is a band. I don't know anything else 1285 01:30:10,119 --> 01:30:14,920 about them. I found them. Uh. I was doing like one of 1286 01:30:14,920 --> 01:30:16,760 those class passes where you just go to a random class, and I did 1287 01:30:16,760 --> 01:30:23,399 a random what's it called not like boudoir is not the right word. It's 1288 01:30:23,439 --> 01:30:27,840 like where it's like you're dancing, but it's also like you're now we twerk. 1289 01:30:27,960 --> 01:30:30,359 Yeah, Like there's like there's like sluttiness to the dance and you were 1290 01:30:30,359 --> 01:30:34,039 supposed to get your heart rate up. It's pretty fun. Anyway, we 1291 01:30:34,119 --> 01:30:39,479 did the class to Galantis Peanut Butter Jelly, and now I'm like addicted to 1292 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:42,119 this song and I really enjoy it. So I think it's really fun to 1293 01:30:42,119 --> 01:30:45,159 get your heart rate up. And then recently, and this is a big 1294 01:30:45,199 --> 01:30:50,760 twist, I've been getting really into an album made by Michael Sarah, the 1295 01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:59,840 actor. He makes music and yes, and he made uh an album. 1296 01:31:00,039 --> 01:31:01,199 See if I can find the name of the album. I mean, he's 1297 01:31:01,239 --> 01:31:05,159 just a really interesting guy. It's not workout music. I will be very 1298 01:31:05,199 --> 01:31:09,760 clear with you on that, but it doesn't matter. Sarah and I just 1299 01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:14,000 want to go nuts. Yeah, dude, it's it's a crazy like listen 1300 01:31:14,039 --> 01:31:17,640 to listen to Clay Pigeons. It's just a really fun I don't even think 1301 01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:24,239 it's an album, but like he's on Spotify. He's just a funny little 1302 01:31:24,239 --> 01:31:28,760 guy. And most of his songs are like guitar and him singing casually about 1303 01:31:28,760 --> 01:31:32,960 wanting to move down south where everybody says y'all. It's really calming and charming 1304 01:31:33,039 --> 01:31:35,800 and sweet. And I think he just made them in a bedroom or something. 1305 01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:40,119 I love them there. They won't get your heart rate up, but 1306 01:31:40,159 --> 01:31:43,600 they're they're sweet little tracks. I think it's great. I had no idea 1307 01:31:43,600 --> 01:31:46,239 who's doing that. I know I stumbled across that too. I listened to 1308 01:31:46,520 --> 01:31:55,399 Joel a lot. He's got some good music that the guy from super Bad. 1309 01:31:55,800 --> 01:32:00,079 Okay, Wow, we're doing okay models sure to sleep a chance to 1310 01:32:00,199 --> 01:32:03,600 dream? Uh? Okay, Well, thank you, Eric, appreciate it. 1311 01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:12,560 Uh married one to this one from Ryan, Ryan, Dude, do 1312 01:32:12,600 --> 01:32:17,560 this one from Ryan? Please? Hi, friends, longtime, first time, 1313 01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:27,039 et cetera, et cetera. What's something ultraspecific video game or otherwise that 1314 01:32:27,279 --> 01:32:31,439 you feel like you are the best in the world at or at least exceptionally 1315 01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:36,479 talented at. For me, I think I have an uncanny knack for knowing 1316 01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:42,319 when a door or a hallway in a game is going to trigger a cutscene 1317 01:32:42,960 --> 01:32:45,600 or a point of no return. So I got out of my way to 1318 01:32:45,640 --> 01:32:47,760 explore the rest of the map available to me. I visit all the shops 1319 01:32:47,760 --> 01:32:53,760 to check out all the buildings before moving on. Especially in RPGs, there 1320 01:32:53,840 --> 01:32:58,239 was no like goodbye, It just says Ryan. So thank you very much 1321 01:32:58,279 --> 01:33:02,880 for the question. Ryan. That's a good one. Best in the world 1322 01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:08,479 at or at least exceptionally talented at twenty third in the world A quackshot so, 1323 01:33:08,640 --> 01:33:13,479 and that's only going up every day. So what Mike just very deliberately 1324 01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:15,960 put his glasses on. No, the glass has nothing to do with what 1325 01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:19,399 I want to say. I thought he had a bit and we're all preparing 1326 01:33:19,439 --> 01:33:27,279 ourselves. We're bracing here it comes. I don't know, Mary, I 1327 01:33:27,319 --> 01:33:30,760 don't know. I'm not prepared. I didn't read this in advance. I 1328 01:33:30,119 --> 01:33:35,159 assume somebody does. I I don't know if I'm the best in the world 1329 01:33:35,319 --> 01:33:41,279 or exceptionally good at anything. I will say I don't know how many people 1330 01:33:41,359 --> 01:33:45,479 in the world have beat down well. But that's pretty difficult. And I 1331 01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:48,000 was very proud of myself for completing that game on a live stream under a 1332 01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:50,640 lot of pressure, and I'm very proud of that moment. And I would 1333 01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:55,119 say that under pressure, I feel like I can deliver still beating a game 1334 01:33:55,159 --> 01:33:57,640 without like you know, like a lot of people can do it, but 1335 01:33:57,680 --> 01:34:00,079 if there's a lot of people watching them, they'll crumble. Hm. I 1336 01:34:00,079 --> 01:34:04,880 feel like I could beat down well on the stage at the Apollo. I 1337 01:34:04,880 --> 01:34:09,319 feel like even with a bunch of people being like you suck, I could 1338 01:34:09,319 --> 01:34:11,960 be like, fuck you, I'll do it, and I and I can, 1339 01:34:12,079 --> 01:34:15,399 and so I think I can. I can overcome extreme stress or pressure 1340 01:34:15,800 --> 01:34:20,239 and still perform. I don't think I'm like the best in the world, 1341 01:34:20,239 --> 01:34:26,680 but I'm definitely accept I think I would call myself very talented at darts. 1342 01:34:27,239 --> 01:34:30,840 Playing darts, oh really, I mean I'm not going to farewell and actual 1343 01:34:31,079 --> 01:34:34,840 like reel those like World Darts competitions where they do insane shit, but like 1344 01:34:35,279 --> 01:34:40,840 the most most the average bar room, I'm definitely going to be one of 1345 01:34:40,840 --> 01:34:43,760 the more talented people until someone comes up and wants to put money on it. 1346 01:34:43,800 --> 01:34:46,479 Then I'm like, I know they're probably good, yeah, and soul 1347 01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:53,760 caliber. I'm up there darts. I feel like I should know that about 1348 01:34:53,760 --> 01:34:56,560 you. I didn't know you were good at darts. I know play, 1349 01:34:56,720 --> 01:35:00,079 but I didn't know you were good. I another more of a social thing, 1350 01:35:00,119 --> 01:35:06,600 not as much a quantifiable skill. I continually amaze my wife and several 1351 01:35:06,680 --> 01:35:12,159 of our friends when I remember I'm very good at remembering names and faces, 1352 01:35:12,199 --> 01:35:15,079 like I'll meet someone once and then remember them forever. I don't know why 1353 01:35:15,239 --> 01:35:19,920 worst in the world of that. I don't know why I can't I meet 1354 01:35:19,960 --> 01:35:23,800 someone and I learned their name, and I just I couldn't forget it if 1355 01:35:23,840 --> 01:35:26,239 I wanted to. And I don't need to like get to know you that 1356 01:35:26,279 --> 01:35:30,119 well. I just meet it and meet you once and something about like I 1357 01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:33,680 think there's like a synesthesia aspect where I like remember where I was and what 1358 01:35:33,760 --> 01:35:36,560 it smelled like and what I was drinking at the time or eating at the 1359 01:35:36,560 --> 01:35:41,399 time. When I remember, someone was like, Oh you're Wan or oh 1360 01:35:41,479 --> 01:35:45,199 you're Patrick. That's so weird how brains work is Like I have that specifically 1361 01:35:45,199 --> 01:35:47,399 with Like, Okay, if I was driving around and a song came on, 1362 01:35:47,760 --> 01:35:50,159 and then I hear that song again two weeks later and where Wolves of 1363 01:35:50,159 --> 01:35:53,359 Blending comes on, It's like, oh, I remember I was driving past 1364 01:35:53,800 --> 01:35:56,159 the Mall of America and this part of the song was playing, and I'm 1365 01:35:56,159 --> 01:35:58,760 like, what the fuck do I remember that? But then like names and 1366 01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:02,199 faces and stuff like that, I just absolutely, I'm I have to know 1367 01:36:02,239 --> 01:36:05,119 someone pretty well to remember a name in a face. It's it's we had 1368 01:36:05,119 --> 01:36:09,279 a we had a I still remember their names. We had like an like 1369 01:36:09,359 --> 01:36:14,920 a not an argument, but we were out several months ago and this like 1370 01:36:15,079 --> 01:36:20,239 married couple from Alabama who was visiting New York had like said something about me 1371 01:36:20,279 --> 01:36:23,680 and Amanda. I forget what they had said, but the point being I 1372 01:36:23,720 --> 01:36:26,239 remember their name is because on their way back from the bathroom, I had 1373 01:36:26,279 --> 01:36:30,399 done like a aggressive, Hey, how's it going like to you know, 1374 01:36:30,600 --> 01:36:31,960 call them out to let them know I heard them, And then they actually 1375 01:36:32,039 --> 01:36:36,479 ended up being friendly. They just told a poorly, a tasteless joke and 1376 01:36:36,520 --> 01:36:42,079 they I remember their names. It was Lisa and Morgan, and then I 1377 01:36:42,119 --> 01:36:45,920 will not forget that anytime soon. It's I don't know why that is what. 1378 01:36:45,399 --> 01:36:48,079 Of course, I can't pick up on normal body language social cues, 1379 01:36:48,119 --> 01:36:53,560 but I can remember names and faces. I was like excited the other day 1380 01:36:53,600 --> 01:36:56,399 because I've met so many neighbors and stuff since we moved here, and like, 1381 01:36:56,479 --> 01:36:58,720 I'm so bad at all their names, even if I met them. 1382 01:36:58,880 --> 01:37:00,520 And I met a couple that lives near by and their names were Paul and 1383 01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:04,239 Nina, and I told him like, oh, Tecan, and they were 1384 01:37:04,279 --> 01:37:08,159 like, what's that? But to me, I was like, yeah, 1385 01:37:08,159 --> 01:37:11,039 all right, tech and I can remember this. Just shouted tech in at 1386 01:37:11,039 --> 01:37:14,960 them. I didn't shout teckn but I definitely said Tecan. Let's go, 1387 01:37:15,079 --> 01:37:17,840 honey, this is a tech and mag we're moving. We're gonna call the 1388 01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:24,960 local police. What a weird man with our children's cigarette smelly Tekan prime man, 1389 01:37:25,880 --> 01:37:30,159 He's given our kids cigarettes and video games constantly jogging around our house. 1390 01:37:33,319 --> 01:37:38,159 I'm trying to think of video game wise, what is something I'm really fucking 1391 01:37:38,159 --> 01:37:43,399 good at in video games? In person, I'm really good no matter how 1392 01:37:43,479 --> 01:37:45,720 much I drink or how tired I am, washing my face and brushing my 1393 01:37:45,760 --> 01:37:48,520 teeth. I've heard you brag about this before. I know this is something 1394 01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:50,800 to take a lot of pride in. This has been a long time thing 1395 01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:56,479 in the world. Yeah, no matter how drunk I get, my teeth 1396 01:37:56,479 --> 01:38:01,399 are clean. I drunk, Mary no to do it, God bless her. 1397 01:38:04,840 --> 01:38:08,840 I have to be up there in terms of, like I'm not going 1398 01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:13,159 to say all across wrestling knowledge, but if we want to talk North American 1399 01:38:13,239 --> 01:38:17,439 televised pro wrestling from nineteen ninety three onward, I've got to be way up 1400 01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:21,000 there in terms of like history, trivia and even like inside stuff, you 1401 01:38:21,000 --> 01:38:24,199 know, as far as say, a wealth of knowledge of that stuff. 1402 01:38:26,840 --> 01:38:30,600 Yeah, there's probably other stuff that I'm now there might not be. I 1403 01:38:30,600 --> 01:38:33,279 don't know. Those are the things that I'm aware of though. Video games 1404 01:38:33,319 --> 01:38:38,279 wise, I'm trying to remember the last time I got very good at a 1405 01:38:38,359 --> 01:38:44,079 video game that like other people noticed, But did you notice that the Sorry 1406 01:38:44,079 --> 01:38:48,600 I want to like, did you notice that Ryan's specific example was not that 1407 01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:53,680 he's really good at a game, but that he's really good at knowing when 1408 01:38:53,880 --> 01:38:56,560 there's a hallway that it's going to be a cutscene. Yeah, it's not 1409 01:38:56,640 --> 01:38:59,680 that you have to be really good at counter Strike. The idea here is 1410 01:38:59,680 --> 01:39:02,279 that you're no, I know, sure at acknowledging something in a game, 1411 01:39:02,439 --> 01:39:05,520 and he does say he does start with saying something ultra specific, So I 1412 01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:09,640 guess it's more like, what is a weird little thing? I think we're 1413 01:39:09,720 --> 01:39:14,640 all way off here. I think it should be something like like you know 1414 01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:18,279 when you're in water, knowing, even if it doesn't give you a timer, 1415 01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:21,000 that you're going almost out of breath in Sonic, right, And it's 1416 01:39:21,039 --> 01:39:27,439 just like I know the timing of when Sonic will drowned. I'm very good 1417 01:39:27,479 --> 01:39:33,039 at knowing it. As an example, it's very clear with audio. If 1418 01:39:33,039 --> 01:39:36,039 you don't know Sonic's about to drown, you're an idiot, because it's like 1419 01:39:36,119 --> 01:39:39,640 dun dun dun dun dud dud dud du du du du du da dun dun 1420 01:39:39,720 --> 01:39:43,960 dun dun dundad No, it gets so clear. I'm really good at the 1421 01:39:44,039 --> 01:39:46,439 end of the classic Tony Hawk run where it's like a two minute run where 1422 01:39:46,960 --> 01:39:49,640 I just need to I'm trying to get every single point out of it. 1423 01:39:49,680 --> 01:39:54,880 I will just like stand still pogo and new kickflip into another pogo and new 1424 01:39:54,920 --> 01:39:57,079 kickflip, and now I can eke my way into a grind and just like 1425 01:39:57,399 --> 01:40:00,279 every little like post two minute thing I can get out of it. When 1426 01:40:00,279 --> 01:40:06,680 I was playing a lot of Siege, I got specifically very good to the 1427 01:40:06,680 --> 01:40:11,119 point of like people in the match would get annoyed of me and saying chat 1428 01:40:11,159 --> 01:40:15,479 like that's such bullshit. There's a character named Maverick. He's got a His 1429 01:40:15,640 --> 01:40:19,199 gadget is basically this blowtorch that can blow like melt holes in the metal fun. 1430 01:40:19,319 --> 01:40:25,199 Yeah, I got very good at like knowing exactly where they had not 1431 01:40:25,520 --> 01:40:28,359 where they would not be looking to shoot their feet a lot until they die. 1432 01:40:30,239 --> 01:40:35,319 Like I know I was good at it because people got pissed. Yeah, 1433 01:40:35,359 --> 01:40:39,760 that was mine. That's mine. Really good A chance time in Mario 1434 01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:44,760 party hmm, Yeah, I know how to like because each one gets progressively 1435 01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:48,239 faster, So I know I want to do me and then arrow to me 1436 01:40:48,680 --> 01:40:51,760 of a star or something and then whoever the fucking lands on one. Great, 1437 01:40:51,840 --> 01:40:57,720 it's coming to me, you know, going through my Steam library to 1438 01:40:57,760 --> 01:41:02,000 see if there's any old gems that are really worth talking about here. I 1439 01:41:02,039 --> 01:41:08,319 don't feel like I was particularly like amazing or have like something really interesting to 1440 01:41:08,399 --> 01:41:15,039 say about Offspring Fling, you know, which I played in twenty thirteen last 1441 01:41:15,319 --> 01:41:21,199 Oh Jesus, it's crazy. These are so old. I love looking through 1442 01:41:21,239 --> 01:41:28,920 these. Okay, keep that in mind, keep browsing. I'll keep that 1443 01:41:28,960 --> 01:41:31,000 in mind. I don't know if I had anything good, all right, 1444 01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:35,279 I got one from stupid. I'm not talented. I don't know why he 1445 01:41:35,319 --> 01:41:38,479 said this said. I'm assuming Micha will be the one who reads this. 1446 01:41:38,560 --> 01:41:42,560 So hey, Mike HBO. Max listed the Rocky movies as ones that are 1447 01:41:42,640 --> 01:41:45,399 leaving Max soon. So I watched all of them in a row, some 1448 01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:47,600 of the some of them again, the later ones for the first time. 1449 01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:51,000 And after watching Rocky five just now, I wanted to know what's the worst 1450 01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:56,119 movie or game in a franchise that you otherwise love. I mean, that 1451 01:41:56,239 --> 01:41:59,439 is the classic one, because it's like, here's a ton of movies and 1452 01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:01,199 only one one of them is bad. You know, It's like I can't 1453 01:42:01,239 --> 01:42:08,159 say Terminator because like, Terminator is two great movies and then it's several Godfather, 1454 01:42:08,279 --> 01:42:12,199 Alien, same thing, god No, I mean Godfather one and two 1455 01:42:12,199 --> 01:42:16,800 are great and three is bad. Is that what you're just saying. No, 1456 01:42:16,880 --> 01:42:18,800 I was saying, like with Rocky, one of them is bad. 1457 01:42:18,880 --> 01:42:21,319 I was saying with Terminator, it's like two good, but then there's like 1458 01:42:21,640 --> 01:42:25,600 a lot of bad ones, like Godfathers. I think Godfather is a good 1459 01:42:25,600 --> 01:42:27,720 answer for this, and that one and two are really good and just has 1460 01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:31,840 the one outlier bad one. You know, Yeah, Alien has a bunch 1461 01:42:31,880 --> 01:42:38,159 of bad ones part of their I'm talking about the number of Aliens. Oh 1462 01:42:38,199 --> 01:42:40,840 sure, sure, but yeah, I mean I'm I'm the weird of who 1463 01:42:40,920 --> 01:42:46,800 likes Covenant. Oh I got one. Well, no, this doesn't count. 1464 01:42:46,920 --> 01:42:49,520 I was gonna say Jurassic Park because the first one is so good and 1465 01:42:49,560 --> 01:43:01,800 all the other ones are fucking god dog shit. I can't and they kept 1466 01:43:01,800 --> 01:43:14,279 making billions of dollars though, m Yeah, I want to say, but 1467 01:43:14,279 --> 01:43:16,520 no one counts that. No. I was gonna say, like Devil May 1468 01:43:16,600 --> 01:43:20,960 Cry three, is it? No? Three is the best one? Which 1469 01:43:20,960 --> 01:43:25,720 one's that two bad one? But every other Devil may Cry is good. 1470 01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:30,840 I'd say my joke answer was about to say was Zelda Links Awakening. But 1471 01:43:30,880 --> 01:43:35,159 my real answer for that series is a Spirit Trax okay, terrible. It's 1472 01:43:35,159 --> 01:43:42,680 not like a Rocky five level. It's just it's that Zelda good. No, 1473 01:43:42,880 --> 01:43:45,039 I like Panamerica. Spirit Traxx is h and Spirit Tracts is better than 1474 01:43:45,119 --> 01:43:50,880 Rocky five. Mario doesn't really have any stinkers like in the mainline series. 1475 01:43:58,239 --> 01:44:01,680 Yeah, it's it's it's like the we don't talk about X child meme that 1476 01:44:02,560 --> 01:44:08,239 there's a better example than Rocky five. That is just like there's eight movies. 1477 01:44:08,840 --> 01:44:11,319 No, there's nine movies now and only one of them is bad. 1478 01:44:11,359 --> 01:44:14,960 The rest are like good to best. Ever I'm trying to think of like 1479 01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:20,920 a TV show when there was one very bad season. Oh, is it 1480 01:44:23,159 --> 01:44:27,199 just drop off? You know? Yeah, it's usually like just a downhill. 1481 01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:30,079 Yeah, like Dexter or whatever, you just drops off for lost literally 1482 01:44:30,119 --> 01:44:34,000 like name them. Yeah, the Office like they just like have this, 1483 01:44:34,159 --> 01:44:38,600 like even the Wire people didn't. The last season is the worst one. 1484 01:44:38,680 --> 01:44:45,720 Yeah, I yeah, I would say this is very much bending the rules. 1485 01:44:45,720 --> 01:44:53,600 But I guess Sopranos season three, I like the season a lot. 1486 01:44:53,720 --> 01:44:57,119 However, it has the Columbus Day episode, which is probably the worst episode 1487 01:44:57,119 --> 01:45:01,279 of the Sopranos ever. Oh really yeah, oh, while we're on the 1488 01:45:01,439 --> 01:45:10,600 HBO train, True Detective had two weird ones, and then I actually really 1489 01:45:10,680 --> 01:45:15,079 liked the last season. We talked about this. Yeah, I'm gonna act 1490 01:45:15,159 --> 01:45:17,439 like the first one. I only liked the first season. I've seen them 1491 01:45:17,479 --> 01:45:23,880 all. You're wrong. The last season of True Detective is so good and 1492 01:45:23,960 --> 01:45:28,399 I've actually I've thought about it. I'm like sad on it. I've slept 1493 01:45:28,439 --> 01:45:32,399 on it. I've processed it. It's really good and I were all in 1494 01:45:32,720 --> 01:45:36,159 until that ending, and then it's like, where the fuck did that come 1495 01:45:36,199 --> 01:45:40,520 from? That nothing that happened before it led to this Like this, it 1496 01:45:40,560 --> 01:45:45,920 was sprinkled in the whole time. I'm telling you, it was sprinkled in 1497 01:45:45,960 --> 01:45:49,279 the whole time. It's really good. That is a one season show. 1498 01:45:50,359 --> 01:45:59,039 Nope, it was season four for Soprano Sorry apologies. Thinking about the game 1499 01:45:59,039 --> 01:46:05,359 franchise, Yeah, like it definitely cried two is definitely the one resident evil 1500 01:46:05,560 --> 01:46:11,800 did that really have? Like like the number six are six? I mean, 1501 01:46:11,840 --> 01:46:14,079 like, look, there were ones that didn't like Aide super well, 1502 01:46:14,119 --> 01:46:15,760 and things like that. But like in terms of the number, if we're 1503 01:46:15,760 --> 01:46:19,880 just talking one through or eight or yeah, I think that's valid. Six 1504 01:46:20,159 --> 01:46:25,039 ships the bed like five issues. But you're like, oh, there's some 1505 01:46:25,199 --> 01:46:28,560 volume now. But like, I enjoyed it. It came out and it's 1506 01:46:28,560 --> 01:46:31,439 a really good COPI is a bad game. But yeah, yeah, I 1507 01:46:31,479 --> 01:46:36,319 agree, Yes, six six was bad when it came out. Dan is 1508 01:46:36,439 --> 01:46:43,399 right specifically about resident Evil. That is the correct answer. But now looking 1509 01:46:43,439 --> 01:46:46,119 back, there are several stinkers in the middle of those numbered or five and 1510 01:46:46,159 --> 01:46:48,960 six. I both not all of them aged well, But I don't think 1511 01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:55,239 it's super fair to be like I just c I'm just saying you clearly didn't 1512 01:46:55,279 --> 01:47:03,680 listen. I listened to you all the time. You're always talking about the 1513 01:47:03,800 --> 01:47:10,439 debatched Prince of Damnation. Yeah, he's a he's a warrior, chaos legendary 1514 01:47:10,479 --> 01:47:15,199 lord, a follower of Sigmar until he betrayed his lords. Forget when you 1515 01:47:15,319 --> 01:47:24,159 told me about Swaanish who led the extatination. That's just the leech lord. 1516 01:47:25,319 --> 01:47:40,640 I remember him. I remember him and the Kundits speaking dactyls. That's freaking 1517 01:47:42,359 --> 01:47:45,600 a warrior queen. Oh wait, actually, okay, so total war Warhammer 1518 01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:49,319 three players will get this, depending how Thrones it Decay turns out. I 1519 01:47:49,319 --> 01:47:56,239 would actually call Shadows of Change the rocky five of Warhammer three DLC. Wow, 1520 01:47:56,840 --> 01:48:01,640 that's very spicy for Warhammer people who know like me. Yeah, right, 1521 01:48:01,760 --> 01:48:05,600 that's very that's a very controversial statement. And I talked a lot about 1522 01:48:05,600 --> 01:48:08,960 Shadows of Change when it first came out. God, I'm in the minority 1523 01:48:08,960 --> 01:48:13,800 here. I don't know anything about this. Just not the most popular of 1524 01:48:13,840 --> 01:48:20,920 the Warhammer series. Dan'l. Yeah, I should look this up. Yeah 1525 01:48:21,600 --> 01:48:28,359 to war Pharaoh. So when I'm stuck in yellow Taxi goes verbal war what 1526 01:48:28,479 --> 01:48:36,399 about? I believe that the coins are are parents. They're very symbolic in 1527 01:48:36,399 --> 01:48:44,520 in this essay I will discuss now. I'm just curious about what else might 1528 01:48:44,560 --> 01:48:50,479 come up if I google. Of course the fucking Gamer has an entry ten 1529 01:48:50,520 --> 01:48:56,319 game series with the only one bad game the Gamer Oh my god. And 1530 01:48:56,359 --> 01:49:00,960 of course Devile make cries there Fallout seventy six that hasn't aged as well. 1531 01:49:00,119 --> 01:49:09,279 Also, I think there was one resident on his listve Dino Crisis three. 1532 01:49:09,479 --> 01:49:13,760 I wouldn't know that Gears of War judgment that game's fine. Yeah, that 1533 01:49:13,840 --> 01:49:16,680 was like a side sort thing. And also I think fine, it was 1534 01:49:16,840 --> 01:49:21,319 fine. It doesn't have any like serious stinkers do. And they also weren't 1535 01:49:21,319 --> 01:49:25,399 like building judgment up to be like the next big one, you know it's 1536 01:49:26,600 --> 01:49:31,880 the best God Bless them Doom three mm hmm. I feel like people kind 1537 01:49:31,880 --> 01:49:39,720 of came around on that Devil Dead three. Yeah, I agree with that. 1538 01:49:39,800 --> 01:49:42,880 I like that, I think it. I think the problem was is 1539 01:49:42,920 --> 01:49:51,319 that it was the third installment and everybody was so excited about like the complete 1540 01:49:51,359 --> 01:49:55,039 that. But I thought it was fine. I didn't think it was like 1541 01:49:55,079 --> 01:50:00,039 a total stinker Metroid Prime Federation Force. I mean, now that I I 1542 01:50:00,039 --> 01:50:01,960 think about him, I was gonna say, other m actually comes to mind. 1543 01:50:02,159 --> 01:50:06,159 Uh, Final Fantasy one thirteen. There's a few bad Final fantasies. 1544 01:50:06,600 --> 01:50:14,479 Oh, Final Fantasy is like a total total space we didn't touch in this 1545 01:50:14,640 --> 01:50:18,359 of bad games in a tremendous series pack. Final Fantasy is such a weird 1546 01:50:18,399 --> 01:50:21,680 one to me because I feel like everyone goes crazy every time there's a new 1547 01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:26,159 number one coming out. But like, I can't remember the last time somebody 1548 01:50:26,239 --> 01:50:28,720 was like over the moon about one, Like people like twelve a lot, 1549 01:50:28,920 --> 01:50:30,800 Like when was a lot, but that was fucking twenty years ago. Like, 1550 01:50:31,279 --> 01:50:34,439 I'm surprised, Like people get freaked out over every trailer for Final Fantasy, 1551 01:50:34,439 --> 01:50:36,880 and then like sixteen comes out or fifteen comes out, and just no 1552 01:50:36,920 --> 01:50:41,119 one really talks about it that after it comes out, Like is it are 1553 01:50:41,119 --> 01:50:45,199 they considered good? Because I don't hear any enthusiasm for these and Rebirth, 1554 01:50:45,279 --> 01:50:46,359 Yes, Rebirth, I know there's a lot of enthusiasm for it. But 1555 01:50:47,000 --> 01:50:51,880 outside of that, I yeah, I don't. I don't remember the last 1556 01:50:51,920 --> 01:50:54,880 ten was ten? The last one? Everyone's like, fuck, yeah, 1557 01:50:54,920 --> 01:50:59,359 Final Fantasy. I don't even remember that. I came on another one Hitman 1558 01:50:59,439 --> 01:51:02,159 Absolution that is that's a bad one? Ye, yep, that's that's a 1559 01:51:02,159 --> 01:51:05,840 good answer for that. Yeah, A three. I don't know. That's 1560 01:51:05,840 --> 01:51:12,680 just the first one I played. It's a sim City, Yes, the 1561 01:51:12,720 --> 01:51:15,399 remake, the twenty thirteen one. Yeah, wow, that's so specific. 1562 01:51:16,119 --> 01:51:19,560 Yeah. Silent Hill Book of Memories, Mary, there's a lot of bad 1563 01:51:19,560 --> 01:51:29,520 Silent Hills. I thought I've played every Silent Hill. There are a couple 1564 01:51:29,560 --> 01:51:34,479 of weirdos in the Silent Hill series, the wee one Homecoming. I So 1565 01:51:34,520 --> 01:51:38,960 the thing is is like even the ones where are like this isn't very popular, 1566 01:51:39,199 --> 01:51:44,119 Like I liked Homecoming, but I played it without all that stress with 1567 01:51:44,159 --> 01:51:47,279 a friend who enjoyed the series. And so when you do it under those 1568 01:51:47,319 --> 01:51:51,159 con that's kind of like when you play RESI five, right, Like when 1569 01:51:51,159 --> 01:51:54,680 you play RESI five under the right context, Like if you play it with 1570 01:51:54,720 --> 01:51:58,199 your sister, like somebody who is like enjoying it, it ain't bad, 1571 01:51:58,359 --> 01:52:01,159 Like I played Homecoming with the right part, and so I enjoyed that experience, 1572 01:52:01,479 --> 01:52:08,479 whereas like some of these are just like they can't be saved.

So look up Giant Bomb tailgating WrestleMania. There. 1615 01:55:16,720 --> 01:55:21,119 We'll have another WrestleMania video going up soon where I interviewed Jade Cargill and aj 1616 01:55:21,239 --> 01:55:24,039 Styles, got a fight in front of me, a whole bunch of stuff 1617 01:55:24,079 --> 01:55:28,520 going on there, and then well I usually plug fire Escape at this point, 1618 01:55:28,560 --> 01:55:30,000 but that's what you're listening to right now, so I'll say go check 1619 01:55:30,039 --> 01:55:34,439 out. Ben Hansen on mid Max did a Hot Ones interview. I guess 1620 01:55:34,439 --> 01:55:38,239 it was like a dual thing where we both went through the actual Hot Ones 1621 01:55:38,760 --> 01:55:43,520 sauces and wings and interviewed each other back and forth as we ate all of 1622 01:55:43,560 --> 01:55:45,279 the ten sauces. And that was a very fun thing to do, so 1623 01:55:46,119 --> 01:55:50,640 too derivative for my taste. I think you've never seen hot Ones. He 1624 01:55:50,760 --> 01:55:59,600 just yeah, he's got the exact same sauces and had the same Yeah to 1625 01:55:59,640 --> 01:56:01,239 watch that. How do you use one? Can you do? They have 1626 01:56:01,319 --> 01:56:03,840 like a store where you can find all their all the ones that you can 1627 01:56:03,880 --> 01:56:06,359 just find like this is the season twenty one store, and here's the ten 1628 01:56:06,399 --> 01:56:11,039 sauces and like it was interesting after seeing like the bomb a million times on 1629 01:56:11,039 --> 01:56:13,119 that show, it'd be like eating the bomb and be like, oh this 1630 01:56:13,199 --> 01:56:15,359 kind of sucks and it's very hot. You know. Were the bad ones 1631 01:56:15,399 --> 01:56:18,680 as bad as some people let on in the show, No, because I've 1632 01:56:18,720 --> 01:56:20,880 done those, like you know, one chip challenges and stuff like that, 1633 01:56:20,960 --> 01:56:26,640 and like those are like crazy, super duper hot. This got very hot 1634 01:56:26,680 --> 01:56:30,159 by the end, like that last ab one is is definitely very hot, 1635 01:56:30,199 --> 01:56:33,479 and the bomb is nothing to sneeze at. But yeah, it's it's I've 1636 01:56:33,479 --> 01:56:36,119 done worse. I mean I did spend a good amount of time on the 1637 01:56:36,159 --> 01:56:40,079 toilet the next day, so it's not like it's nothing. So yeah, 1638 01:56:40,159 --> 01:56:44,520 nice Mari.
