How deep is everyone in on the Catherine Princess Kate ship M I don't care
about any of that. I am in I am in deep, Tam and
I are in deep. We've got a group chat, I mean, our
regular group chat of that includes just the two of us has been pivoted.
Normally it's about talking about you guys, but now we just talk about where
Princess Kate might be. Okay, so if she's lost, she hasn't been
seen in weeks. Since this is a member of the royal family months,
I thought, you guys don't care about that. We don't know. This
is something interesting. A member of the royal family has not been seen in
months and is very They killed her, like they hate her, They don't
like that. This is the one they like. This is the one they
like like. This is William's wife. She's going to be queen. Who
could keep track of all these I do not give a ship about the Royal
family, but I do like give a ship now that there's a possibility that
the Royal family has murdered one of their own and like or something like that,
they all I think I think she is leaving him, like I think
she's launched the new Girlfriend today. Yes, basically on Mother's Day. It
was Mother's Day in the UK over the weekend, and what they did was
they released this picture of Kate and the three kids. But it was so
badly photoshopped that Reuters and the AP issued a kill notice on this picture to
say that yeah, to recall it, can't use it, recall it from
every news outlet in the world has gone to yeah, and the picture is
so bizarre, like they've clearly like colored over different like pieces of clothing.
There are sleeves that aren't photoshopped in properly. And then today we're recording on
Monday, they tried to tweet that she had done it herself, like I'm
sorry, no member of the royal family is fucking editing their own pictures that
get given to the press. William took the photo. They said, this
is taken by William and it's like, what is no way, No,
they have a professional photography. It is that one. So you it's cut
a little bit. You can't see the like look at their fingers crossed,
look at their fingers on left hand side there image like it's weird shoulder on
the kid too. Yeah. Wait, let me find like the are you
kidding? Like the window the panes of the week weird. Yeah, it's
very weird. I think she she's I think she might have had like a
mental breakdown. And they're trying to these kids mouths why they open like that?
Can't they smile? I mean, hundreds of years of inbreeding, living
up to British, living up to British. There, oh, here'll go.
New York Times has got a picture where you can see all the all
the weird ship. There you go. She could Oh I didn't even see
the tiles. Yeah, the tiles. The reflection in the in the window
pane is kind of yeah, it's it's it's black Mirrory type ship where they've
just tried. I reckon she had a mental breakdown. They put her in
like a a like recovery like to situation, and they're trying to keep her
out of media eye for as long as it takes to her fixed up.
And like there has been reports because when Harry and Meghan like did their exodus,
they did that interview where they were basically like, yeah, they were
shitty to her NonStop and they made life help for her, and obviously Diana
has also, before she passed away, talked about how like awful it was
being in a part. I don't think they would have wanted me to speak
queen. Yeah. Yeah, they like about the royals, but I am
I'm all in now. Yeah, if this can lead to their demise,
wildly intrigue, Yeah, that's the thing. And if it can lead to
their demise, I'm definitely interested. I'd love to see this happen. It's
never going to go away. They're always going to just like manufacture in there.
Yeah yeah, but it's wild. And like in response to this,
the the the British people on TikTok have come out and been like defending it
and being like this picture is so lovely. A great job to Prince William
for taking this. It's like, that's funny like that, that's my favorite
kind of British person, Like the an equivocally like pro royal family weirdo who
was just like, oh, I love that person. I don't think I've
ever had a conversation with someone like that. Anyone I've ever spoke to is
British is intensely apologetic about everything. Yeah dude, Yeah you're welcome. Yeah,
sure, Canadians no. My stepmom really likes saw a family and one
time she just went. She asked me what I thought about Harry and Meghan,
and I just went, Judy, I could not care any less except
for now, except for now when maybe. Yeah, I was young when
Princess dianadad and I remember being so upset that her news coverage of her dying
had meant that I couldn't watch Part Rangers. I remember, I have a
flashball memory, and she died. I also remember coming home and my mum
was like watching the funeral in floods of tears, and I was like,
you didn't cry that much when like, X member, you're okay? What
I was under my legs that whole time? I had no idea. What
did you do to him? I just kicked him real hard. Oh my
god, I did I did? Oh buddy, sweetie, But what are
you doing under there? What do you think was gonna happen? Jean?
If you could isolate the sound of Marty screaming and tame and just like crank
it up? Please please? I thought you love me? Anyway. We'll
begin all right ten minutes, then last again with the first recap of the
latest episodes. Of JoJo's Beside Adventure that what we have watched. The first
one is called Toshi Kazu Hasamada parentheses surface. It's not it's non parentheses surface
on crunchy roll, where I watched it, where the localization was something different.
It was I think it was echoes or something else. Surface is like
emblazoned in the in the anime show isn't it show off is what they call
it. That's weird. It's almost like anime is weird. The episode begins
once again in Morio. This recap is taken from the JoJo's Bizarre Encyclopedia Jojo
wiki dot com. Thank you to everyone that maintains that wiki and has filled
out. We appreciate it. So it's evening in Mario and we get a
very death not like scene happening here. It reminded me of Lights of Room,
Yeah, where a student is reading a magazine and there's a TV is
it radio radio I think is on in the background, and they're talking about
various nonsense stuff and then suddenly, out of no way, you get a
close up shot of him taking a mechanical pencil and then jamming it in his
eye. Oh yeah, pretty start off with that, YT's get this party
started. I was waiting for, you know, writing instruments to be introduced
here, and there's symbols of death and look, I'm here for it.
Let's go to you guys. This really reminds me of the first scene of
Part four. Do you guys remember it? That was so many years ago?
Refresh my memory? The hand? Oh yeah, yeah. And so
we basically get a long shot into this living room and there's just a severed
hand on a table. Oh yeah, I just I just bring that up
just because we haven't really heard John, You've been paying attention this opening?
Is that? How many times is this for you? Watching this? So
I have read the comic twice and watched this is my third time watching the
anime. Damn. Okay, we'll call that like a lot. Okay,
great, thank you, Thank you for peppering that back in than you literally
pay me to do this sometimes if you get your shit together, yeah,
you know how you'd be less busy. John is the only person who is
like, I'm too busy to get paid. Yeah, I have a long
list of tasks that must be worked through in a methodical order. Yeah,
you know, it's not like I have a thing to balance every month and
make sure anyway inside baseball aside, consider some sort of assistant employee or assistant
help you out with that. They were caught to Tom Amy, who you
might remember as the really annoying scam artist from the previous episode istting this guy
back. You ain't done with him, fu Man. He meets Joski and
Koichi at their school and he's got information on another stand user that he believes
is in town, and he shows them a photograph of someone called Toshi Kazu
has Amada, a student that's at the same school as Joske, and basically
explains what happened to Hazamada's classmate, who it turns out is the kid who
jammed the pencil in his eye, and we learned that he actually popped his
eyeball out. Have you never had any fucked up eye ship? So I
haven't. But in my secondary school one kid did legit attack another kid with
a mechanical pencil and tried to stab him in the eye and so he so
he got like below the eye, but there was like a hole. Yeah
that's bad too. God, I was gonna say one time I blew into
a pencil shop and I got pencil shavings in my eye. That sounds kind
of bad too. It did suck. I had to go and they had
to like, you know, put I like eye drops in everything, and
I was I had like burst blood vessels and that kind of stuff. Okay,
I don't know any ice ship for you, Jeff. Yeah. Really,
let's just or any or any trauma you want to just unload here.
Jeff, you played Dead Space too, Yeah, I know what you're doing
there. Okay. Once and they had to take like a scraping off the
surface of my eye. I mean, look, I want that surgery.
I want I want something. I want someone to cut my eyeball so that
I can see better because I I just want to be able to like see
better when I play hockey, and I don't I can't wear glasses. Oh
so you're a liability to your team? Whoaah? No one said that.
No one said that, No one said that question? Sure, yeah,
what's wrong? What's wrong? No? You ask a question? Why do
you think it's going to be a bad question? Because I've never known you'd
ask a good question? Wow? Like that? I meant, like,
how did you mean a question? That doesn't have me frazzled. But go
on, are you good at hockey? Jeff? I enjoy playing it,
and I feel very confident and good about how I play hockey. Yes,
okay, when you show up to training, what do you think your teammates
kind of think training? Surely a hockey hockey evening. I don't know hockey,
the hockey thon. When you show up to the hockey thon, you
mean a game? Yeah? I thought you meant like training is like practice?
That what you mean practice? Sure? Training, we only have games.
But yeah, training is such a cooler word than practice. Okay,
sorry, when I show up to a game? Yes, what was the
question? Do you think your teammates are kind of like, oh, well,
they asked me to play for them? Yeah, like a sympathy thing
or like what could be could very well be, could be that I someone
owes me a favor. I don't know. It's kind of like the way,
kind of like the way Tomamy hangs around Koch. And that's that's exactly
it. That's what I was actually trying to lead back to. Thank the
circle is complete, Josk decides to investigate this has Amada Chap and he's like
co is coming along for the ride. And they head to the classroom has
Amada's classroom and look around for him there but they don't find him, but
they but he notices them. Is that what happens? Yeah, that's that's
right. And then they go to his locker and punching his locker. Is
he's crazy diamond to punching the locker completely just right off the feel like there
are more efficient, I mean not efficient, but less destructive ways of opening
a locker. He's no regard for public property here whatsoever. He's just being
in Yeah, what did my locker at school have keys? Or like a
combo min had a combination combination? Who's a different country. We did not
have lockers. We could not afford lockers at our school. It was like
keep your ship with Fi. There was one time where there was this There
was the locker that you didn't open because it had someone's jumper in it and
they had spilled milk on it. No jumper is like that sweat is that
pants? I know what jumpers are now. I know they're like a one
piece like sweatsuit. I understand that. What's for the most part, Yeah,
it's like a one piece outfit, right like jump jumper. It's someone
is about to fetch their jumpsuit. No, like, uh, the way
I understand like a jumper outfit right now is just sort of like a one
It's like a one piece thing. Refusing the phrase and jump soup. Yeah,
maybe, yeah it could be. Yeah, it's just a sweater jumper.
What do you call a knitted jumper sweatshirt? Sweatshirt? A sweater?
God, something like that? Is that? Is that right? We'll just
move on. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry to do this,
just learning a lot of things about you today. Can't see a tax dog
doesn't know what the sweater is. Definitely kicked the dog today. I can't
take that back. They open his locker of it's been fucking trashed, and
it's like, I would like to know how deep this locker is because the
initial like, look at it is, there's nothing there. It's like,
oh, here's a bunch of manga and some normal things. And then they
start like just throwing shit away and throwing it out of there, and suddenly
there's a full life sized wooden mannequin. They like touch the leg and they're
like, what's this and then the camera pans up and it's just a full
human sized wooden dummy and they're like, oh, this is one of those
things that they you can buy art stores for, like posing anatomy drawing.
And I was like, I've never seen one that big in my life.
They're usually very small. They're very That's kind of the point, right,
right, because you can bring it around and I have like a human life
sized one, and so you cannot see a human. Yeah, you can't
see all the angles of a life size one as well, so you would
be very limited. This was weird, guys, mh like, like practically
weird, you know what I mean, Like, yeah, weird in the
in the weird ways that animes tends to go. This is just sort of
like inconveniently weird. Hm hm. Jo touches the mannequin thingy and is like,
hmm, this is weird. And then the the hand part of it,
which is usually just like a rounded, stubby part of it, it
begins to transform into an actual hand and then very slowly turns into Joeske and
emerges from the locker with his voice as well. And that is when we
learned that the wooden thing is a stand. So does the stand this is
the man? Is the mannekain? We talked, We said that does it
have to make contact with its prey, pray touch them? Is? Do
you think that is the stands the way the stand looks naturally, or do
you think that it changed itself into a wooden mannequin and then put himself in
there? No? I think I think as details roll out the rest of
the episode, I think we do know that for sure it is wood I
think it's like, yeah, it has to be wooden. I think that's
how it presents itself. The stand is called surface, Is that right?
Surface? Yeah? If you're watching the control, yeah, that's there's a
discrepancy in translations. There makes more sense if we're being Yeah, the surface
is like I don't know, the surface is written did you on the screen?
They literally ride it into the cartoon. Yeah, it's called anime.
It's not a cartoon. But I'm sorry, I meant to say animation.
Yeah, it's like a better word. Surface is basically able to transform into
someone and also control their movements as long as they are in eye contact range.
So Surface raises his limbs and Joe skate automatically does the same, and
he uses this ability to like throw make Joe skate like lash out and that
violently elbows Kochi in the face, which I thought he was the fuck out
of Kochi getting just like there's no way he's recovering from that. God like
it's like a broken or something. Yeah, because he's in the neck and
it's just crunching noises. And then he goes through a door as well,
and it's just like, this poor little kid can't catch a break. He's
dead. They show his convulsing little corpse with his tongue out and I was
laughing at that because that just looked funny. It's funny. It's a little
punching bag. Is the punching bag of this season. I'm sorry, Like,
I love to see that little guy get hurt. Yeah, it's great.
Jeff and Jeff kicking his dog. Yeah, Jeff looking at his dog.
I'm changing Marty's name to Kochi. That's what's happening. Baby. We
have Marty screaming and then Jeff going and just love to see that little guy
get hurt. Yeah, this is its effectiveness when you lay it out like
that. Okay, it then surface tosses a pen to Joe's care and begins
to really intellect seeing people stab themselves with writing devices. This stand, yeah,
starts to make him poke himself in the eye of it, and as
that's happening, has a moda kind of peers out from behind the lockers and
believes that he's in safe enough situation, A safe enough situation now to emerge
and introduce himself is a bit of a coward, so he decides to.
He comes out and he does his whole leg give it the bigg and like
I'm gonna kill you and shit like that. But this is it was really
easy to miss when this happens. Uh, Koch's stand echoes mimics the sound
of Joski's eye being popped or pierced, so he doesn't actually do it.
He uses a squish sound and that fools has amada. And also when when
Kochi was slapped away, Joe Ski also healed him because he's got his That
was that was pretty cool. I was very happy with that. Yeah,
I was happy with that and simultaneously not annoyed but just sort of like eye
rolly about the squish thing because I'm like, okay, you're just like,
you're just a soundboard. Your stand is just a soundboard, and that's fine,
and it's going to be used for a lot of this kind of stuff.
But there, I'll give you this. It's pretty clever. Yeah,
I understand what we're doing here. And one they do later on they pretty
clever. They actually don't use a whole lot of that from this point.
Okay, it's not a scapegoat, right, they're not just sort of like
relying on it is what you're saying. Nice, So they wish the sound
effect ship. Yeah, they are knocked out, and the Huzamas decided to
duck out and go find Joe Torrow is what they are off, all right,
they're going to kill this dude. You brought him from outside. It's
a problem they're around in our business. Yeah. So they're walking, they're
walking back through the school and has Amada is getting very very upset about how
every single girl in that school is falling over themselves to talk to Joski and
he's like, why why do they not talk to me like this? Because
you know, a little fucking freak. Then they called Joe Tara's hotel room,
and this is the real, uh, Joski caused Joe Tarra's hotel room.
Wait, did we miss the bit? Where isn't the girl from the
next episode, Like doesn't she look out of the window and see both of
them? Yeah? Yeah, she's like, yeah, I was one of
the girls hanging on around on this girl for in particular. God, I
love you. She's so cool. She's my favorite so far without a doubt.
So she like is introduced briefly. So the real Joek and Coach he
decided they're going to call jo too to warn him, but he's his phone
is engaged as busy, which means they figure out that the other Joe Toro
Joek has probably called them, So they decide to go and pursue. Coach
and jo decide to go pursue has Amada and then like he he like puts
his hand on a bike or something like that. As they do that,
like he's walking by and there's like a couple of bikers there and he like
puts his hand on the bike and it puts some blood on it, and
these two bikers are very upset by that and they kind of attack it.
Yeah, they decide to attack has Amada, which he uses surface on them
and basically takes them out super quickly, and then Hazamada goes full psycho and
pulls out a box cutter, and it's like, I'm gonna cut your mouth
open. Yeah, this this has matter lot. He's got a bad attitude.
Yeah, I just think he's a bad egg. I hope I'm not
saying that twenty sixteen. When did when was the manga? Oh? Late
nineties, I think, okay, yeah, oh no, so is this
like no, I just think like this, I don't know what between the
between the pencils and the eyes and the razor blade in the mouth, I'm
like the Rocky just like or is Christopher Nolan just someone's inspiring, someone with
a little bit of like joker bullshit. I feel like, oh I was
dark and when both of those things happen, I kind of thought, like
this is gonna be awful. I was like kind of Columbini because of the
way that he's kind of like expecting, like why aren't the girls interested in
me? Like attacking? Oh my brain didn't go there. I think it's
late nineties like that was very much the hysteria in America. Also, there's
a lot of like urban legends around mechanical pencils and pencils. Yeah, I
feel like he's he's selecting stuff that students naturally have access to that are dangerous.
So he's about to cut his face open when suddenly a glass shod appears
and like hits them and it knocks them off balance. Surface catches the shod
and then basically Joe Ska reappears and he's like, haha, I got you,
and he repairs the glass shod so that a bottle forms around Surface's right
hand. Cool, it's it's stupid, it's so cool. It's so fun
cool. Yeah, I love it. And it he shatters it afterwards,
right, and it like removes his wooden hand, like it splinters the hand
off. He becomes David Dukovney and Zulander for a second. Nice. Nice
what's that guy's name in the movie. My friend went dressed up as him
for Halloween one year. We all did a big Zoolander thing and it was
I love how he's like the last famous, last smart models. That's the
best part of like the whole bit, because he's not like one of your
face jockeys. Yeah yeah, he's like, no, you're freaking idiot.
Explain to me how the bottle. Okay, so what happens the bottles he's
holding the shot, and then Jos uses his like that uses his and then
he forms the bottle around around the shot. Got it? Got it nice?
Thank you. If you think about it, he would have to have
thrown a very specific shot as well. Yes, that's what I'm saying,
high high level of difficulty, very high. So uh, that kind of
like makes it harder for Joe Skir to pass himself off as the real one.
So has Amadas like, put your hand in your pocket and we'll just
use that as cover. Has Amada also realizes that the plan is kind of
now in danger because you know, Joe Ski is on their ass, and
they decide to run to the location where they've arranged a meeting with Joe too.
He arrives at like a railway and then here he has a siren announcing
that an oncoming train is on the way and decides to take a detour that
would make it longer for him to get to Jo Toro's location. But what's
actually happened is Coach has used his stand to replicate the sound of an announcement
and a train to trick haw's Amada into believing a train was coming and force
him to take a long, longer route. I love ass plan was good.
I thought it was good. It's great, very funny. Joski and
Koaching managed to meet the meet Yoto first and they warn him about has Amada
and surface. But then suddenly time I get to this scene, I always
think that Joe too has been the one who's replaced. Yeah, because he
has his hands in his pockets and you're like, here, it's just because
he's a cool guy. Yeah. Suddenly Joe's kid picks a pen out of
Yotoro's pocket like his coat pocket. Slick, it's slickly animated. Right.
And then then like with a TV show in the UK when it was like
how not to get a cold pocket by yeah, pickpockets and street crimes and
stuff, and they would teach you the ways that you'd get pickpocketed so you
could guard yourself against it. Yeah, it's like his BBC show from the
early naughties. I want to say, it sounds like propaganda. Yeah,
and that's why you never have pens when you're around me, Jeff, because
I steal them more. How do they know that they didn't actually just train
a generation of pickpockets in it, and now World Sleep agents activated by this
episode of Jojo. Sorry. Behind them is a window what they thought was
a window anyway, or a mirror reflecting them back out, but actually the
reflection of Joe Ski was actually surface behind the window. So he's using he's
using his ability to control them and be in line of sight from behind that
window, and he uses his control to try and stab Joe Torrow in the
neck. But as it's about as he's about to get stabbed, those two
bikers from earlier up here and just grab Hazamata and start beating the ship out
of him. Silly. I love it. I love this stupid ending,
Like yeah, because like Joe told them him and they're like that Joe's is
a great dude. Yeah, he told us where we could find you.
See, I will, I will go back. I did not love the
way this wrapped up. I thought it was a little too. I don't
know, I get it right, It's silly. Yeah, we we took
such a fun and inventive way here and then we're sort of just like these
guys came back and just beat the ship out of you know, I don't
know anyway. We also the bit, remember the bit where as Mata takes
a rock to the head of the previous villain. What's his name? The
little blood? Oh yeah tom oh yeah, brick Jesus he he whooped them.
Yeah, Tomummy is owned. So while Joe while that is happening,
Joe K taken out his frustrations on the doll and Joe to Josk and COOCHI.
Later they oversee has Onmana being transported to a hospital. But at the
same time they're being observed by a stand and it's Red Hot Chili Pepper,
the electric from earlier. Yeah, he's hanging around. I mean like,
okay, slapping some bass. I feel like I feel like a Rockie really
wants Read Hot Chili Pepper and his stand user to be like a big deal.
And I just don't think he is. Like he's like holding him at
the end a lot, right, Yeah, And it's like, no,
this ain't this ain't the guy come on that that electric crow you have is
just not doing it for me just yet. That digimon that you have,
yeah, digon, isn't he you know? I'm with you. Yeah,
it's sort of like I'll be back next time. You know, you're like,
gos, shut the funk up. Yeah, and going from do o
to and whoa, it's yeah, yeah, we'll get there. We'll get
there. The next episode is called You CaCO Yamagie She Falls in Love Part
one. Okay, were we are on the cusp of a group of episodes
that I have just been so excited to watch with you guys. Show off
is like surface is like fine, it's okay, Yeah, it's episode.
It's fun. Yeah, now we're getting to the fun ship. This episode
got it hooked me in such a big way, just because I'm like,
yo, we are entering like a horror kind of arc here in a in
a fun kind of way. And there's something about uh cocko that like,
I don't. I'm equal parts like terrified and also intrigued by her and I
don't. It's fun. Everything's fun. I'm a big fan of What's going
down is Awesome is one of Michelle's favorite Jojo characters. Yeah, Michelle,
I was watching and I was like, oh my god, this takes me
back to being you know, fifteen and embarrassing ways to get your crushes attention,
but without having the confidence that she has. So I posed to the
panel, what's the most awkward thing you've ever done to get your crushes attention?
I punched the guy. Yeah see, oh wait, that's a thing.
By the way, that is a thing. Yeah, and the cush
was the crush was the guy? You punched your crush? Yeah? Yeah,
okay, okay, I think that that it was. I mean,
it was. It was very awkward, and it was just like that was
the one conversation I think we ever had and I never was it like because
she beat him, that's why. Yeah. Yeah, but I think I
got awkward about it. So I accidentally definitely they punch a little too.
Oh that's right, because it was physical violence. Okay, dog kicker,
Okay, you deliberately punched your crush. I accidentally confused my dog for an
ottoman. There's a difference. I confused my dog for a home intruder.
I shot my dog. Listen. Uh, that is a thing, though,
that is a thing, like and you know, this is not an
endorsement of that, but like I've definitely seen that throughout my childhood, of
like that specific relationship of like mostly girls punching boys. Oh god, I
thought you were talking about shooting home intruders, dude shooting dogs primarily yes,
yes, yeah, I mean like other than that, it was just like
the standard you know, vague booking on MSN messenger updates, or like logging
out after they log in so then they stick get the notification that you've logged
in on shit dick away messages yes, or just like an unhappy face and
being like I think, more powerful than a camelcased cryptic alternative font annoy.
They should have other people. I know. See I've been with Michelle's so
long that the Internet didn't exist when you were first, and it didn't like
social media was like just kind of getting started. And I think I was
also like kind of a late bloomer when I was a teenager, so I
wasn't really like like hot. Yet you can say it's so weird because there's
just Ireland is such a culture of shame, like no one really hits on
anyone in the typical ways. It's all it's very like you nearly don't want
to admit it, you know, weird. Okay. I was d so
I was entirely focused on video games and anime, so I was like no
time for that. What did you say me you were what kind of you?
I didn't hear you were what? I was a depressed fat kid,
so oh, I was just like, I'm just going to focus on the
things I like, and it is anime and video games. I had really
bad acne up until the age of about seventeen or eighteen, and then nearly
immediately met Michelle. Sweet damn wow, that is ideal timing. Yeah,
wait, Jeff, what about you? What are we asking? What's like?
Oh, what's like the worst way you've ever hit on someone? Like?
Do you have any embarrassing moments? Yeah? Come on, Oh no,
no, nothing like super embarrassing. I don't know, I don't I
too. Did meet Stacey very young, and I dated a little bit before
her, but it wasn't really like anything super serious or meaningful. Yes,
I guess the second I like this kind of yeah, the second I like
grew up, I guess after all the other you know, I like,
did? I kind of met Stacy soon after that? So I do remember,
and I do think back to this and be like, what what the
fuck were you doing? And I used to have a huge crush on like
my best friend's older sister, and I think she was maybe two years okay,
And one night, one night I am I called over to his house
and I was like, hey, is Michael there? And she was like,
he's actually not. Pretty much my whole family it was. She answers
the door and she's like, he's actually not. The whole family has actually
like gone down to Cork and I just stayed here. And then she was
like, do you want to come in and hang out? Bro? I
was like I was, and I actually just go no, oh, I'm
okay. And then she goes what and I go, I do want to
hang out? Yeah? Okay, And so I went in and me and
her ended up hanging out the whole evening and like nothing happens or anything,
but we had the best fucking time. It was like so chill and it
was so nice and like we watched some movies and it just really cool.
And then like I was leaving and she was like, you know, she
like gives me a huge and she's like, you know, you can come
in, like Michael doesn't have to be here for you to come and hang
out. And I was like, and I never followed up. You seen
anything with it, you know? And I was like, fucking bad for
this girl as well. She was like my teenage crush, and to this
day, I'm like, what the fuck is wrong with you? You know
how old are you? I think maybe like fifteen, no legal two years
seventeen? Yeah, maybe no, sixteen. I might have even have been
I might have been like thirteen ish. Okay. Now then in that case,
okay, ye, I don't think there was any now in city,
I don't know. It was a very wholesome evening. Do you still know
her? Like, are you in contact with hers? Now? I think
she's I think she's a patron. Now why did you tell that story?
Because I just remember she follows me on everything. Jane body listeners, please
don't tell me that's awesome. Jane, you screwed up. You could have
been in a relationship with super ipatual. She married. I was at their
wedding. Oh god, you know what's up? Yeah, she's still cool.
Jane is really good. Jane, if you're listening to this, send
me a DM. We'll get you on the podcast. Yeah, I'll interview
you as John has gone right red, It's great. He's just a tomorrow
colored human. Now. I was starting that story and I was like,
surely this can't lead to it always starts that way, doesn't it. Yeah,
yeah, he was such a wholesome boys, it's a cute story.
I had a I had I dated a girl like early in high school and
her sister I was I met her sister for the first time, and I
was like way into her more than the girl I was dating almost immediately.
That's not a cute story for the girl you were dating. Yeah, well,
I'm not going to say the name. Say it. Maybe she's a
patron of let's let's wholesome my best friends the same guy, different guy later
in teenage years, I kind of looked back now and think, oh,
I think that dude was like really in love with me and I never copped
it, and I was just like, oh, this guy sure has some
strange mannerisms about him, but boy, can he play some fucking street fighter.
Is this the one that randomly disappeared one day? It is? Damn?
Did I tell that story on this podcast? Yeah? You yeah,
John? Yeah, it feels like maybe I share too much? Is the
not true? I did? I do know now that I think about it.
I remember there was one girl that was into who was like super into
trainers, like these trainers, and she's been trying to get sneakers. She's
been trying to get this very specific model of trainers and could not find it.
And I was she was very offline and I was very online, so
I was like, no, easy for me. So I like track down
these trainers. They were pretty expensive, and then bought her the trainers as
a present, not expecting anything in her town. By expecting like you know,
just like a little closeness there, acknowledgement. You gave it to her
and she was like cool, thanks, and I was like, fuck,
oh, that was the last time I bought trainers for a woman. Never
again. I think either, I think if no interest, don't accept the
trainers. That's that's on her time. Yeah, you can't accept gifts if
there's no you know, yeah, feeling behind it right, like like example,
you know it's fine, it's fine, she's dead now good, Well,
I could say good good, Joe King. I'm joking, calm down.
In college, I I maybe like, was you know, really crushing
on Stacy and you know, like she would give me the time that she
ran up and kicked her dog or like it's like not enough for for for
me, you know, I wanted this to be signed, sealed, and
delivered, and I want to feel like she probably took advantage of that,
and like and like, let me like write a paper or two for her.
Here, let's let's tell yeah, it's something to hash out. We've
talked about it many times. Like, you know, she took advantage of
me. I love that you remember what papers they were, just like film
theory stuff like that, nothing really important, just stuff you can bullshit your
way through. So when I started going out with Michelle and my like,
I you know, my acne had cleared up, and like I was feeling
like, okay, girls are paying attention to me. Now, this is
this is going to be fine. And Michelle was like basically the first person.
Well, no, I was. I was dating someone else the time
when I met Michelle, and then I met Michelle and stopped dating the other
person, but then started dating Michelle overlap, no OVERLAPO. And but rememberin
a weekend is what we're saying. But I remember talking to Michelle and kind
of being like, just so you know, I want to be completely honest
here, I am not looking for anything serious. I'm kind of you know,
I'm very young, and i think we can both agree that, like,
you know, there's a lot ahead of us, and like this isn't
like it, and she kind of just goes no, She's just like,
no, I think we're probably going to be together for a long time.
And I was like, yeah, we're the soldiers, Okay, okay,
sure thing, and well she fucking showed me yeah again on we are very
happy. But we are very happy. Whether I like it or not,
I have We should get back to talk about the episode, probably, but
I'll leave you with I for a few years, a couple of years when
I was at school, because I lived right next to school, everyone knew
where I lived. And there were a couple of years where I got a
Valentine's card through my front door and I have no idea who it's from,
and I still don't know to this day. Definitely not one of my parents.
I know the handwriting. I think I still have them back at my
mom's house, and I've just I never know, I've never known similar experience,
but I am convinced it was, if not one of my parents,
someone's parents because I was a hideous child. Hidious, Okay, I don't
think you probably were not hideous I got better. We need to say Okay,
next podcast, I will try and dig it pictures great. Uh.
Joska and are discussing what has I'm either revealed after and Joe To interrogated him
at the hospital and has a matter basically said, I don't know anything about
Red hot Chelli Pepper as user, but STAND users. It gets a bit
of philosophical and it's like stand users are bound to meet each other. There's
like threads that connect them so eventually, you know, has this idea ever
been introduced before? I can't remember. No, It's basically destiny, isn't
it. Like yeah, because this is kind of a this is kind of
a thing in JoJo's that stand users. I think it's just out Rocky's way
of pulling them together. But it's the idea that stand users really have this
like gravitational pull towards each other. Yeah, I mean I get it that
they can like, oh, they are the ones that can see each other.
Like certainly there's that, but I don't know. I also think it's
like, why, you know, allow this no name stand low level guy
to like be the one to you know, have that information. I mean
they needed to get it out there so they could have the rest of the
episode, Kelly Pepper do that. It's the setup for for the Yuca co
stuff. As a side note, I love the drawings of Hasmata just beat
his ship in the hotel bed. They're fun. Suddenly they see the Koichi
and they see Kochi and one of Okoyasu's classmates, a girl named Yukako Yamagishi,
and they at a cafe and they're like, oh my god, he's
with a girl. I believe the phrase why is he looking so cool drinking
tea? Like tea or something. It is so funny. Their reaction to
him simply having tea with the girl insane, is like just flabbergasted that he's
having what is looks like from a distance and behind a building slash tree or
whatever, it was, a date with a girl that's an upper classman,
to the point where he can't even contain himself, where he is exploding with
like tears and laughter and horror. Get it to get jealous and then season
he's an innocent boy. He's just like, why don't the girls look at
me like that? His voice is also like that of like a forty year
smoker. Yeah, that guy voice fact is very prolific in anime, and
I love him. He's so he was like fifty eight when he voiced this
high school student. Well canonically, yes he is thirty seven. No way,
there's that kid. Why no he's not. How is that? Okay,
he's in high school. So cut to this, like cut to the
date, and she's just confessing her love to Coch. It's just like I'm
in love with you or she's like I like you in that way. Yeah,
and everyone is love is blind ass shit, it's just like we spent
fifteen minutes together in the Pods. I love you. Everyone is very shorandle
it's very short. But he's also like very overjoyed by He's like, oh
ship, girl likes me. Kochi doesn't like immediately like respond and reciprocate that
love, which sends her into a bit of a rage and she rejection.
Rejection is tough to deal with it the best of times. Okay, Yeah,
she like flips over basically flips over the table, but she like knocks
over the drinks and is going a bit crazy with it. And then it's
like comes her senses and is ashamed and then leaves Yukako is is like very
surprised by you. Gocko's like a sudden outburst of temper And he's sitting there
drinking his colar and then suddenly realizes his drink is a color is iced tea.
He is he's drinking soda. Adams suddenly realizes that the glass is full
of hair, and it's like real gross looking. It's such a disturbing shot
and it's so well drawn, and that's look like a thing totally totally.
It looks like the way they do the mimics and the type the typhon in
the prey. Yeah, like the weird way that it all moves, symbio
venom, Yeah, Baonetta because it's had Yeah, big Bandetta energy. We're
about to embark on. Also anyone else I'm going to point that, Lucy,
You'll be the one that, like I can understand where I'm coming from
here. Is this a gross thing? Is what you meant to me?
Okay? Did any particular like emo song from like the two thousand start to
play in your head when all this hair stuff begins showing up? Maybe what's
that Black Parade? Not Black Parade is before Black Parade? Helena Chris No,
no, not Mike Camra, like a different band, different artist.
Well, Chris Carabo, you know that is Oh oh, what's the song?
The lyrics screaming infidelities. The lyric is your hair is everywhere? This
is make it for great podcast list? Sorry, yeah, from this copyright
for some reason turns giving information into a fucking cryptic game. Yeah. Well
I eventually got there, and people who know the song will get a nice
pop from it. I'm sure I enjoyed seeing him with joy that broad jet.
Yeah. When you when you pinpointed me, I was like, oh,
like some gross internet thing, some smiling No it was. It was
two thousand and I was like, I forget that. That's my other core
pillar. Yeah, you know you're the mount rushmore than person of there.
Hell yeah. The next day you cocko approaches. Were you about to say
something? I was, but it was just another tangent. Okay, Okay,
I guess I'm just gonna say I think for me, I was lightly
too old for like the kind of emo scene. I think I was looking
at Emo from New Metal and being like that ship's not legit, which,
in hindsight is very funny when your favorite bands are like Poppa Roach and Limb
Biscuits. I don't think it's an age thing because those two things were happening
simultaneously. I was, I was, I was going back and forth between
the two. I had no ALLEGI okay, I was very much on the
emo side and like had no time for Corn or any of that other still
to this day, Corn and slipknot Nirvana, the distiller's whole my chemical.
Well, you are combining. I don't want to be combined there. I'm
just as far as like the new metal stuff is concerned. Oh man,
I was like a trivia boy, a phenomenal band slip and was maybe a
bit later but right enter Shakari showed up on my Instagram today again in Dublin,
and I haven't thought of them in years. That's I went to see
never like blew up here. I feel like the way they did over there,
but I was that one album they had sorry You're Not a Winner or
something. The next day you got tries to approach Koichi and apologize and does
this by like going completely overboard and being like super affectionate, and it's like
it's just why thee Later and like he's like feeling trapped and suddenly he's looking
for an excuse to get out of there and also express that like he's not
interested. And at that exact moment, another class member comes in and because
he's like cleaning the classroom, and he's like, you've got to take this
trash out before the next class comes in and see by the bell. Huh.
I didn't have to clean my classrooms when I was a kid. It's
a very thing. Yeah, I've seen it in enough different anime. Yeah.
I think it's like one kid over here. Yeah, Dylan to clean
up after himself. I don't know he does, but not his classroom mom
saying he should clean his classroom. You. Goko interprets this as a challenge
and a threat to her love for what's his name, and decides that she's
gonna she's like walking away, and she pursues her and then gets into a
bit of an argument, being like, you stay away from Koch, you
homewrecker. I can smell it, you got you smell like a whole that
kind of ship. I love when she starts talking like that because it's like,
wait, yeah, who is this girl? Yeah, he's my man,
And she's like what the fuck. But like she she plants youkka plants
some of her hair on this this girl. And and then it gets real
wacky. Whacky is a word for it. I love it. This is
this is just misery. Like this show, this, this arc is becoming
misery in a really ye it is. Yeah, you know, so the
girl is like, I'm gonna tell everyone that she likes Koichi as if like
to embarrass her. And at that moment, like the hair basically like emerges
and like goes into her mouth. It twists around her tongue, tongue looks
like it's about to cut up her tongue because it's so tight. Yeah,
it looks like pigs in a blanket. It like for a for a second,
we had what I assume is the cover of some like death metal album
somewhere of like pressed snatched up. It's some fucking sari. It was.
It was intense. What's what's shabari? It's like that Japanese bondage, oh
stuff like the inter in popular popular new metal slash SMM bands. It's very
into it. Uh. Also, my friends let me know what they say,
let me know what they say. Good points with that that the they
also seem to be signing next to a furnace or a fire somehow, like
a fire erupts nearby and and her and her hair catches fire, so she's
like trying to She also goes to a bucket and tries to put the like
drop water on her head, but it doesn't. Well what happens, is
it like empty or no? Knocks it over? Yeah, her eyes and
she can't see. She knocks it over. Your hair trails from the furnace
to her her head. Yeah, so does serving because at some points she
just has one really long hair committed for hid. Yeah, it's just this
is fucking brutal. It looks so horrible. Well, this is where the
horror arc starts for me, Like the second they do, I guess more
like the hair and the soda. But like now that we're doing this,
I'm like, oh, we've got we've got hair horror like you know,
ring kind of shit going on like into it. At the moment, she
looks like she's about to burn to death. Basically there's no one around,
and suddenly suddenly the fire goes out and Oku is there with his stand the
hand and erases the fire. I think, okay, stand is probably my
favorite stand all of them so far. I feel like it's so cool,
Like if he became a really good fighter and combined that with like the stand
ability of like erasing space between you, that's such a cool idea. John
is is ok in the Jojo Fighting Game, I leaves, so, yeah,
have you used him? Does he do that? Like can you like
screw up spacing with his standarbility or anything? Oh? Yeah, you can
like pull on eraised space and it works a kind of like a scorpion harpoon.
But yeah, it's it's cool. That's awesome. I might going try
and mess with him there. Jos And basically realized that Yukoko is bad news
and begin the investigation. Kochi and jos And later meet to discuss what to
do with this whole Yukako situation, which I'm sure everyone has had that friend
meeting being like what do we do about this person that I do really love
the bit where right after Yukako sets the girl's hair on fire, Okiyasu and
Joek are like, she's probably not probably not going to do it. Yeah,
So they decide they decide also, like the the the whole stress of
it is impacting Koch's grapes. It's like, uh, they slipping because he's
so stressed out by Yuka. He sucks in English. He's so stressed out
that his English has gone bad. So they eventually decide what they're going to
do is bismirch Koichi's reputation and like present him as a as like a bad
person. So she wraps scallion. Yeah, so she is like not into
him anymore. Solid strategy. No, no way, that's not going to
work. So she's walking by. Yukako is walking by, and Joska and
very loudly started ship talking. Kochis saying that he's like shoplifted, among other
things, and he's doing like crying all money and that money borrowed money,
never paid them back, and he never keeps his promises. Yeah, he's
unreliable. I love, Like, what a great thing to just say that
they never keep their promises. Joska do that and Okay, do that.
But meanwhile, Coach, he's at home. He's just trying to like wait
there and figure out what happens later on. He's like nervous and then he
kind of like gets in bed and he sits there and then like a proper
horror moment. They show the window of his room and she's just there like
such a great shot. Light strikes She's like there like ringo ship, like
she's just out there looking in and obviously he freaks out and she kidnaps him,
Yeah, and takes him to some sort of secluded villa where the owner
is on an extended vacation and won't return until the summertime. Yeah, it's
like what some like corporate guy and he's just got at I do want to
know, like, what's the connection between her and the corporate person or does
she sculpe out kidnapping? I think that dude's dead in the basement, yeah,
covered in head full of head, like that's like hair coming out of
his mouth. It's gone down into his choked he's hair now. So he
realizes that you Gocko is a stand user and then kind of plays dumb and
he's like, she explains that she was shot in by an arrow, which
obviously is our pal from the previous episodes trying to find new stand users,
and he plays dumb. He's like, oh, have you ever met anyone
else with that power? Like and she's and she's like Nope, never met
anyone, so he's he decides to keep quiet and maintain some sort of surprise
advantage with his stand. Kucko has prepared a breakfast for them, but the
way that she's feeding him is via a English quiz or some sort of quiz
system where there's three items and hidden by boxes, and she asks a question
and depending on his answer, if it's wrong, he has to eat the
item behind it. The first question goes fine, get something like the random
the reference to prince? What does a prince's music you know, translator in
Japanese or something like that, But what is it like prince uses the term
it's the talk. Yeah, it's like like funky that's not funky music,
And it's like, how is that translating Japanese wild music, fantasy music or
something else. I was like, it's a weird one as well. It's
like primitive music. It felt like a I don't know, like bad translation,
yeah, like a really bad translation. But he picks the one he
thinks it isn't is that weird one? Yeah, primitive or whatever, and
it's correct and he gets some boiled eggs as a reward. Yesterday, don't
knock them eggs After this, the next part of like a good Poached Egg
too much work in that though fancy. The next part of the breakfast quiz
involves the second question, and amongst the items that he may be forced to
eat is a bar of soap asparagus that has been rolled in dictionary pages,
which is hilarious, and corn flakes. Corn flakes made of English phrases,
like papers with English phrases written. It was so weird, and he decides
to He starts to pick an answer, but notices like her grimacing and getting
angry at the one he's about to pick. The changes and then she identifies
that as cheating and just loses her mind and yucaco he tries to leg it
coach. He decides to try and run away. He runs towards a window,
which I'm not sure what he's planning to do, just like leap out
of it, but Yukacko restrains him because she's planted hair on him previously and
kind of lifts him up to the ceiling and then she just bounces it and
she's like, no one's gonna come and get you, So we've got plenty
of time to make progress and improve your personality oh, and I swhere the
episode ends. Fucking Kathy Bates ass mother, this is I can fix him.
Have a fucking episode. This is this is the horror here is so
palpable and I really I'm into this one, man, I'm feeling it.
I think it's also one of those episodes where you can really see the advantage
of not having a let's save the World storyline, where it's like you could
just hyper focus on these just weird little scenarios. Also, I think this
episode, if it doesn't have the first it's one of the first uses of
my favorite one of my favorite pieces of music from this that like the creepy
strings to play t is like looking at They get such good use out of
that. And oh, it's I'm excited for where we're going, guys.
These next two episodes are two of the episodes I have been just chomping at
the bit to watch with you guys. Hell yeah, very exciting, exciting
times ahead for Jeff. Jeff's bizarre adventure real quick before he finished up and
just wanted to I guess just mention the passing of legendary manga creator Kira Toriyama.
It's really hard to think of a single person who has defined the industry
around him more than Toriyama, Like he's he's one of the only people that
you could say is comfortably more influential than Iraqi. It's no disrespectful to Iraqi.
It's just the absolute, like global impact this dude has. We got
the news that he had passed away last Friday, and it was heartbreaking really,
Like I did not expect it to be such a good punch, but
that man, like his output, I think genuinely changed the trajectory of my
life like I wouldn't. I don't know I would have started making YouTube videos
if I hadn't started making videos about the works this guy had inspired as well
as his work and by extension, I don't know that like all of us
would be here doing this Like that is literally the reverberations this man had yeah
through the planet, and it just would have felt it would not have felt
right to let this podcast pass and not just you know, honor the man
for everything he's done. Yeah, I saw someone tweeting about like this guy
not only inspired like generation of other mangaca and anime, he like inspired people
to go to the gym and like be better people generally, and like that
is what dragon Ball did. And like there's like stories about how you know,
in in certain Latin countries or like I can't remember which, I think
it's Mexico. Like they would like have public gatherings to watch certain episodes and
they would be illegally streamed, and like Toeian Tsunami or whoever it would would
get into contact with the government and be like stop doing this, and the
government will be like no, this is like it means everything to us.
Like dragon Ball was like the national symbol for a lot of the culture in
those parts of the world, and it is like it is his legacy is
firmly secure, Like there's gonna be no one. I would be surprised if
anyone reaches that level of success and influence ever again. But like because it's
not just dragon Ball, it's it's dragon Quest, which is the other major
thing in Japan, like either Love Dragon or Dragon Quest. Yeah, what
do you say, it's Chrono Trigger is Chrono Trigger? Yeah, Contract is
another huge one. There's there's manga he did before dragon Ball as well that
people just Slump was huge, Yeah, Doctor Slump was huge, like you
can and there was like an outpouring of support from various people, including people
in the manga industry. And you could tell how important it was when like
the creative Naruto is out there being like, I cannot believe this one piece
older is like I would not be here if it wasn't for him. And
it's just like there's every anime like one punch Man, Demons Layer, every
every popular bleach like Kubo Tito was out there just being like this guy changed
or he let us believe that we could make manga. So yeah, And
I guess what I'd say is, you know, if anyone is ever curious,
like I know, like dragon Ball Z and stuff like has a very
specific kind of reputation, I really challenge anyone to pick up volume one of
dragon Ball with Little Kid Goku and not just have a fucking blast reading that.
It is so funny, it is so charming, it is so gorgeous
drawn, Like if you've never read the original dragon Ball mine, yeah,
please just do yourself a favor and pick it up because it is it is.
It is such a beautiful work of art, and I think everyone should
just at least have that little piece to know what this dude was capable of
like just a total master of his craft, and I have so much respect
for someone like that. Yeah, I think the other thing that really stuck
with me was like how prolific or how overwhelming the outpouring of love for him
was. And I was like, he's he was clearly quite a private guy.
But my like, I thought, like, I wonder if he knew
he had this level of impact like it did. It's one of those situations
where everyone says it was like, it's sad that people only speak about people
who they like all the work that they love when they're gone. Like I
thought, like, I wish he could have like seen this, And the
same thing happened with Mirror when he passed away. I was like, I
don't know if that guy realizes how profound an impact he had on world around
him. So I guess, like, you know, if you love something
and you care about the works of people, like let them know what you
can. Yeah, you never know what could happen, but yeah, you
know, we should do everything we can to celebrate the artists we love,
which in a way is kind of what this podcast is about exactly. Yeah,
thank you for listening to another episode of chespist Gent can't speak any more.
