00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:18.079
Hello everyone, and welcome. It's
Saturday Night, episode fifty five. That's

2
00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:22.719
confusing because it's not now and this
doesn't go up. This has nothing.

3
00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:26.160
Saturday's the furthest day of the week. From anything associated with this, you

4
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:29.679
don't know when people are listening to
this, Mike, How do you know

5
00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:33.320
when something's a twisty not a quirky
thing. I looked at this and I

6
00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:36.399
confidently thought I'm holding a wine bottle, and I thought, oh, that's

7
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:39.799
a twist oop. I don't need
the hardware. General rule of thumb is

8
00:00:39.799 --> 00:00:42.240
that the quark bottles have a cork
in them, and then the twist up.

9
00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:45.079
Yeah, that's the thing, Like, look, there's no quirk Do

10
00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:47.880
you see a cork there? Video
gott He explained that he was holding a

11
00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:50.840
wine bottle and it was a cork
or a twisty, you know what I

12
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:54.119
mean. The video patrons are getting
this hot video content now with me showing

13
00:00:54.159 --> 00:01:00.479
up generally speaking that I can tell
from a distance that's a twist a twist

14
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:04.200
off, like it's it's twisted and
I do I have to I it might

15
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:08.799
have a thing that I have to
cut off. This is twist offs would

16
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:11.719
not have a label over the top. Are you sure because it gets out

17
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:15.439
a sword? Am I just weak? Hang on? Here? Yeah,

18
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:19.079
here we go. I've got a
hardware for what. Oh look at that?

19
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:23.000
Yeah? Why are you so impressed? You just twisted off a cap?

20
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.719
Because everybody does that. It seemed
like it wasn't a twist. This

21
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:30.680
is this is just oh man,
good radio. Still, it's all downhill

22
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:36.439
from here. We're here. We're
halfway to one hundred ten episodes, big

23
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:38.680
milestone. I'm gonna say that every
time. I'm just gonna double the episode

24
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:44.400
from here on, I would say
we're halfway. Um, we've been playing

25
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:47.040
a lot of Zelda. We'll get
to that later, or at least we've

26
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:51.840
started playing Zelda. Um, that's
some of us just started. I don't

27
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.120
like that you do that when the
when the wine's dripping down the side that

28
00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:57.120
you like, just suck on the
actual boble. What is the what is

29
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:00.480
the alternative, mister wine? Because
okay, I went to a wine bar

30
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:04.519
with you once and I complained about
this at the wine bar and you were

31
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:06.760
like, oh, what, I
can't stuck on the bottle at a wine

32
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:10.879
store. No, it was at
a wine bar with all these fancy people

33
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:15.680
that can't suck on my own wine. Yeah, so you told me,

34
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:16.120
it's like no, no, no, no, Look, it's supposed to

35
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:19.719
happen that way. Look at this
bottle that the like fancy wine guy was

36
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:23.719
pouring and it like it was like
the label was all stained and the menu

37
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:25.000
had drops on it, and he
was just like, yeah, that's how

38
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:28.719
wine goes. And it's like,
I don't want to just drip bullshit all

39
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:32.240
over myself in my chair a man
of taste in class, it's it's like,

40
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:37.919
gentleman that you're doing it because you're
the only one drinking from it.

41
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:39.000
But generally speaking, I would say, like, at the very least,

42
00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:42.319
use your finger to wipe it up. In them link but a lot of

43
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:46.360
them have the white cloth around it. But some people tie. Gentleman uses

44
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:52.879
the finger and the animal uses his
tongue. And I've been both a gentleman

45
00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:55.599
and an animal before. If you're
holding a glass and a bottle, how

46
00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:59.840
are you supposed to wipe it off
with a finger? Um, I don't

47
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:00.800
know. Set the bottle down,
then run your finger up the side.

48
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:02.879
It's your bottle of wine. You're
going with drinking. It's fine. It's

49
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:07.120
just it's very suggestive when you do
it. What do you mean by that?

50
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:15.719
It looks like you're your O'Keefe podcast. I've ever heard you say,

51
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:22.240
Georgio O'Keefe, I'm suckling on a
panini? Is that what you mean by

52
00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:28.560
asking a suckling is also suck?
When was the last time you suckle pani?

53
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.759
Oh dude, I'll suckle a panini
so hard your face. I'll do

54
00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:35.479
it, and I'll do it right
in front of your face. That's next

55
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:38.599
week. This is a great episode
so far. Um. Yeah, I

56
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:42.159
don't know. Like some people tie
napkins like in a bow thing around it

57
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:46.240
just to catch the drip. That
seems like a lot. Did I would

58
00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:49.280
say? When I go to a
fancy restaurant, which is not very often,

59
00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:52.599
and somebody orders wine for the table, which is not very often,

60
00:03:53.919 --> 00:04:00.159
the guy always has a like a
napkin around his arm, and after he

61
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:06.919
pours, he places the bottle tip
on his arm to catch the drib to

62
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:11.120
catch the dribble. And I know
that that's something fancy people do, but

63
00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:14.360
it's not like I always keep a
napkin on my arm. Am I supposed

64
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:16.439
to have a forearm? Napkin when
I'm podcast with you, guys, only

65
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:20.240
if you're serving a table of eight. Okay, so people just wrapped the

66
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:25.759
cloth around the bottle. Okay,
yeah, I have a special wine hanky.

67
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:30.040
I don't either. Handkerchiefs have always
grossed me out. Why whoever thought

68
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:35.120
that was a good rational thing back
then? But you're just wrap up and

69
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:39.600
putting it in your pocket. Yeah, it just wasn't a thing back then.

70
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:43.839
You got one piece of cloth and
you sneezed in it or whatever,

71
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:46.680
You shoved it in your pocket,
and then you washed it with your you

72
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.680
know, slacks. I get the
utility. It's just so gross knowing that

73
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:53.439
a dude has his boogers in his
pocket. Well, now I don't think

74
00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:55.800
I say a dude. I don't
think I've seen a woman use a handkerchief.

75
00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:58.959
I've never seen a person music weren't
allowed to do that or vote back

76
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:01.199
in the day. Well, we've
come a long way now you can use

77
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:09.160
and vote. We can do it. Never can we can use a handkerchief

78
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:12.680
we're walking in put snot in my
pockets. Every time I vote. I

79
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:15.160
just want to do it because I
can. You have to have a baby

80
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:16.480
if you're in Texas. But you
can use a handkerchief, so it all

81
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:26.279
eventriarchy, you know what I mean. Let's get political thoughts on the world

82
00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:31.040
and country. I mean, I
it seems like there's problems, Dan are

83
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:35.879
married? Statement? Am I wrong? Am I wrong? You should run

84
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:39.879
for president? And that's your slogan
is it seems like there are problems.

85
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:44.879
It seems like I don't make any
promises or know what they are. I

86
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:48.360
just it seems like they are.
The vague sense that the world's not perfect

87
00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:54.319
is your entire platform. There are
people on both sides. Next question,

88
00:05:56.079 --> 00:06:00.639
Um, but Dan, you seemed
like you were going to go off handkerchiefs.

89
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.439
Oh yeah. So like if it
was just a sneeze situation, that's

90
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:08.519
fine because the sneeze, I think
is like the essence of snot. It's

91
00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:11.959
not like full on just matter,
Like you're not sneezing matter out of your

92
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:14.439
nose something, you know. But
but like boogers, like some people,

93
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:15.839
you just get a big old honking
thing there. You're not like if you

94
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:17.720
put it on a thing, then
put it in your pocket. That's the

95
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:21.839
guy. It's drying, and I'm
sure it's like flight into your pocket.

96
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:26.720
Then you got a pocket full of
boogers, Like you're just sneezing in it

97
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:29.199
cool, that's fine, it's just
getting a little bit wet and then it's

98
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.720
gonna be fine. It doesn't even
turn green. But once I think snot

99
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:40.399
and straight up boogers or a bit
holier than thou, isn't it like your

100
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:44.600
body? No? Okay, just
because someone's eating booger their own boogers doesn't

101
00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:47.279
make it fine, Like, don't
eat any boogers? What does that come

102
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:50.759
from? What is your pocket?
Yeah? But like right, if I

103
00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:54.800
just picked my nose on camera here
and just put a booger in my pocket,

104
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.439
that'd be weird, right, to
be horrendous? Yes? Right?

105
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:00.360
And why is it just because there's
a middleman involved? Like there's that.

106
00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:03.720
I guess it's the etiquette. Yeah, I mean most etiquette is just a

107
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:08.240
role we agree upon. The middleman
is the most important feature here. If

108
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:11.839
you didn't have the middleman, also, Kleenex would be gross if you were

109
00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.680
like blowing your nose and had a
bunch of snot in your hand and then

110
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:19.680
through your snot in the trash and
we're like what, I threw it away?

111
00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:24.120
Like it's not the pocket that's the
issue. It's the fact that you

112
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:27.920
guys don't like the fact that you're
keeping it instead of having it be disposable.

113
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:30.959
You're right, and again I don't
disagree with the utility of it.

114
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:32.800
Well, I don't disagree with the
utility of it. I just don't like

115
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:36.680
it the idea what you just said, blowing your nose into your hands,

116
00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:40.639
And that was the grossest thing I
can imagine right now. It's just no

117
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:44.240
barrier, just blowing your nose,
like like when you have a cold straight

118
00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:46.560
into your hands. So I do
have a bone to pick with that.

119
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:50.120
There are a lot of people in
this world that blow their nose in the

120
00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:55.480
shower, and when you do that, you're blowing your nose into your hand

121
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:59.000
and you're in the shower so you
can just rinse it. And I think

122
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:01.519
that's gross. I feel like I
need to bring something up in the shower.

123
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:07.360
I'll be in the shower. I'll
I'm not getting peel over me.

124
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.079
I poop in the shower too.
Well, speaking of that, No,

125
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:16.480
on that note, that note,
I need to bring something up. Okay,

126
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:18.519
some Giant Bomb listeners might know where
I'm going with this. We were

127
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:22.160
on the voicemail dump truck a week
or two ago, and one Mike Manati

128
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:28.079
aka Mitch Tolkoda. His name is
way too close to mine. Oh yeah,

129
00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:31.839
he's basically undiscernible. You're the same
person. But anyway, one of

130
00:08:31.879 --> 00:08:37.200
his friends does a thing in the
shower that he Okay, I'll tell you

131
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:39.879
the act first, and then the
gross there. It's gross and weird,

132
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:45.399
all right. So the friend the
toilet is next to his shower, and

133
00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:50.919
his friend will shit into his hand, open up the shower door, and

134
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:56.600
he says poop city slam a jama
and slam dunks his poop into the toilet.

135
00:08:56.600 --> 00:09:03.000
That's I don't don't believe him.
I didn't believe it either, but

136
00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:05.799
then he was like, no,
no, he's got a video proof and

137
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:11.639
it's irrefutable. I would I would
actively not be friends with him. I

138
00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:16.039
wouldn't be disgusted, Yeah, ido
disgusting. Poop city slam a jama is

139
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:20.200
a funny series of words, but
the actual act of shitting into your hand.

140
00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:22.320
You can say all sorts of funny
things while you're a disgusting human being.

141
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:28.840
I still don't both being toilet content
around your bathroom when you slam Dunca

142
00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:33.720
turred into a that's disgusting. I've
never I don't think I there. I

143
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:35.200
don't think my own poop has ever
been on my hands. I know the

144
00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:39.000
Bible says judge not lest you be
judged, but that I don't like that

145
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.679
guy. I could learn, so
he could be have, like he could

146
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:46.039
win a Nobel Peace Prize. I
would still not like him. We'd bring

147
00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:50.120
it up. We'd bring it up
in his speech. Yeah, acceptance.

148
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:58.519
When I was in college, I
was friends with a bunch of like fraternity

149
00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:03.399
bros. And we would they were
always like one gross one. I'm always

150
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:09.000
gross, always multiple the gross one
in this house, I have a vivid

151
00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:11.600
like. There was rumors floating about
how weird he was. And one of

152
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:16.320
the things that he did was when
they ran out of toilet paper, he

153
00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:22.399
would shower and then he would go
like take a shit, and instead of

154
00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:24.279
wiping because there was no toilet paper, he just went right into the shower.

155
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:28.200
That's like his system shower. No, he would go and as a

156
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:33.360
normal person in the toilet shower because
he couldn't wipe. And I was like,

157
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.759
that's disgusting, Like, just get
toilet paper like a grown adult.

158
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:41.720
And deal with it. And it
was like this thing where he was like,

159
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:46.200
I'm clean? Am I not?
And ned is like ten percent of

160
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:52.039
what poop slam a Jama. Who
cares? What a freak? Yeah,

161
00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:56.399
I don't like it. I don't
person. There's so many other options.

162
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:01.240
He could get out of the shower, poop in the toilet it and then

163
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:05.720
and then finish the shower. The
concept of pooping in your own hand is

164
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:11.080
something very well reserved for monkeys that
are in some kind of war. And

165
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:16.399
that's like the best ammo they have. For the record, I am not

166
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:20.159
defending the poop city slam a Jama
gentleman. I am the messenger here.

167
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:22.799
No no, no, no no. Check the tape. It's disgusting,

168
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:26.360
it's disgusting and weird. For the
record, I'm just the messenger of the

169
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:30.480
poop city Slam of Jama. I
heard this and I was shocked. What

170
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:33.039
are pete? What is going on
in people's homes? I think a lot.

171
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:39.759
This seems like there are problems children. These two slam a Jamma.

172
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:46.039
My dad. So, my dad
has the whole gimmick where he steals toilet

173
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:48.399
paper from hotel rooms instead of paying
for it and he's done this forever,

174
00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:52.360
and so that's fine, that's better
than poop city slam a jam of course,

175
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:56.919
of course this is just aren't pomparable, right, No, we're not

176
00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.360
on this good. My dad's doing
cat burglar shit to try to say he's

177
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:05.399
bringing in fake like fucking like so
can do the Indiana Jones swap with the

178
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:09.360
toilet paper roll He brings in the
used ones, steals the full ones um

179
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:11.240
to save some money. And so
he does this all the time and bragged

180
00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:16.440
about it a lot. So Bonk
Bianca got him for Christmas like three or

181
00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:20.960
four years ago, just bought him
a big fucking thing of like forty two

182
00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:24.559
toilet paper rolls. That's fine.
Was it really good? Ply because you

183
00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:26.279
know he doesn't pay for good ply? Well, it might have been.

184
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:30.480
I'm not sure. But the thing
is, every time my dad sees or

185
00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:33.559
talks to Bianca, the first thing
he always says is like, you know

186
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:35.200
what I still have? I still
haven't gone through it all. I still

187
00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:39.840
have some of that toilet paper.
And like her response is always like cool,

188
00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:48.000
Like I think his thing is responses
statistically, you should have gone through

189
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:50.960
in it by now. This is
weird. I think he's bragging and saying

190
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:54.480
like, oh, I use so
little and I'm saving money, I'm not

191
00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:56.799
using very much of it, and
I'm still stealing the hotel stuff. But

192
00:12:56.840 --> 00:13:00.320
it's not really a brag. I
don't think he knows that. Well,

193
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:03.200
this is I'm putting the dots together. Isn't he the same person that like

194
00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:07.639
thinks skid marks are affective life?
Yeah, that's this explains it. He

195
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:11.200
is he poops slam a jamma.
I know he wouldn't poop city slam a

196
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:15.240
jama. My dad's real weird,
but he wouldn't poopity quick correcting me,

197
00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:22.799
Yeah, it's this the trademark.
Yeah, I don't need to get it

198
00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:26.279
right, Dan, Look, will
we strive for accuracy and all things on

199
00:13:26.320 --> 00:13:30.679
this podcast? Um no, my
dad, he's not gross in that way.

200
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:33.919
I would say that's good. Yeah, yeah, I'd prefer it that

201
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:39.360
he's not. We have a bar
here that we keep amongst peers, friends

202
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:46.399
and family, and I think purposely
shitting in your own hand is just a

203
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:50.679
line I'm not willing to cross.
Don't tell me if you do it.

204
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:56.519
I don't want to know because it's
going to impact our relationship. Yeah,

205
00:13:56.159 --> 00:14:00.399
but then the slam dunk is like
the most unhygienic thing I ever heard in

206
00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:05.759
my life. Yeah, I don't. I mean, I'm not. I've

207
00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:09.000
I've done ill around toilet. So
if he's washing his hands in the shower,

208
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:13.039
I bet he's like, I bet
he's like putting shampoo in there and

209
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:18.720
is like that's fine. It's the
same thing his hair with poo hands.

210
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:22.559
I'm just telling you, I feel
like I know that guy. That's a

211
00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:28.120
guy who like definitely is like it's
clean enough, that's like that when poop's

212
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:31.600
involved, Like I like, I
have a very good record of not touching

213
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:35.720
poop. Like fine, anyone's I've
never had to change a diaper in my

214
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:39.679
life. I don't like, I
think I can go. I could live

215
00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:43.399
to be eighty something and just never
touch poop. First, you already touched

216
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:48.919
poop when as a child. I'm
sure. I'm sure at some point when

217
00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:50.960
I was fucking one or something,
I like touch my own diaper or something

218
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:56.240
like five. You're probably sticking your
hands and some shit. No, I'm

219
00:14:56.320 --> 00:15:01.799
weird, but I'm not gross in
that way. Children are stupid about being

220
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:03.879
weird. They stick their hands and
stuff. They got jam hands all the

221
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.399
time, I would say, no, way past the age of five.

222
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:11.360
Have I interacted? Have I touched
poop? Five is unlikely? Five is

223
00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:15.320
five is like kindergarten. You should
have stopped by. That's I'm saying.

224
00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:18.120
I'm just I'm Mary said five.
So I'm saying that I don't think past

225
00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:22.799
two. Frankly generous. Yeah,
quick, dog poo poo. Absolutely brushed

226
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:28.279
dog shit. There's no question I've
picked it up with a bag. With

227
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:31.159
a bag, I pick up.
Yeah, don't do poop city slam a

228
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:33.399
jamma with your dog shit every day, slam a jamo my dog shit.

229
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:37.080
No, I pick it up in
a bag. It's just a thing.

230
00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:41.799
Though, when you have a dog, at some point you're going to be

231
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:46.240
like, what is that? And
then sometimes there's an accidental poops scenario.

232
00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:50.399
I've done well. So yeah,
I don't even want to talk about this.

233
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:56.279
Really, this is this is all
related. I have a strong stomach

234
00:15:56.279 --> 00:16:00.480
most of the time. I've actually
been sort of sick lately from like every

235
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:03.879
single year I get the bad seasonal
allergies to the point where it actually gives

236
00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:07.440
me like a hay fever, and
my stomach sort of recovering and between the

237
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:11.679
boogers and the poop and the I'm
actually feeling nauseous. We've discussed this before,

238
00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:15.879
but if you talk about boogers too
much, I will gag because it's

239
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:18.360
like the one thing that can cause
my tum tum to recoil. But I

240
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:22.120
will say, for the record,
if you roll back the tape, the

241
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:26.240
first person to say poop on this
podcast was you, Mike, because we

242
00:16:26.240 --> 00:16:30.879
were talking about peeing in the shower
and say, yeah, no, it's

243
00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:33.840
just here we are. Let's turn
the around, Mary, Mary, go

244
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:38.919
the total throw something out that's the
total opposite of this. My stum,

245
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:42.399
make my tummy feel good, Bring
it around, make my tummy feel good?

246
00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:47.879
Please. Um. I made my
own keylime frosting. Oh that sounds

247
00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:52.799
delightful, key lime pie delicious,
hygienic, that sounds perfect. I washed

248
00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:56.360
my hands before I made it.
What'd you make it with? Um?

249
00:16:56.679 --> 00:17:06.039
So shit made it with my own
pip. How did we get here?

250
00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:12.079
Family visiting because of a wedding.
My cousin got married this weekend, and

251
00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:18.720
I thought it would be nice if
I baked some home goods for my fam

252
00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:22.559
so they could think that I am
really good at my life. And so

253
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:27.279
I baked orange. I'm just gonna
say it's a cake, but like,

254
00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:33.119
don't imagine a nice cake. Imagine
like little buns, but they're made of

255
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:37.000
cake material that have like orange in
them. And then I made a keylime

256
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:38.799
frosting with cream cheese, and I
was actually pretty proud of it, because

257
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:45.680
I'm not a good baker or a
cook. I don't really do that kind

258
00:17:45.720 --> 00:17:47.640
of stuff very much, and so
every time I do it, it's a

259
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:52.359
huge gamble that I'm going to waste
my time and a huge brick of cream

260
00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:56.319
cheese, not only wasting cream cheese. So I was happy that it came

261
00:17:56.319 --> 00:18:02.000
out good, and nobody at least
admitted to me or said that they didn't

262
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:04.440
think it was very delicious. Everyone
said it was great. Baking's hard.

263
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:08.759
Baking's harder than cooking, super hard. It's like science stuff. You know,

264
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:12.720
Yeah, you can fix it or
you can wing it, but baking.

265
00:18:12.880 --> 00:18:18.400
Baking is a science. Is baking
cooking. You are technically like cooking

266
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:25.680
it, but it's specifically putting.
Forgot. I looked this up recently.

267
00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:30.759
Actually with chemical I always assumed cooking
was the catch all for making food and

268
00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:33.599
heating it up, and it is
but Zelda, Yeah, it is,

269
00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:37.960
but there's like a when it comes
to baking, it's obviously an oven is

270
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:41.640
involved. But I looked this up
recently. Yeah, is it like an

271
00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:45.599
actual chemical change. You're changing the
structure of something, and that's what baking

272
00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.960
is, which is different. But
what about if I make a hot pocket

273
00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:55.039
in the oven? Am I not
baking it? No? I guess you're

274
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:59.079
like you're heat baking it. You're
you're baking it or you're roasting it more.

275
00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:02.880
I don't know. I would say
that's a reheat sir. No,

276
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:06.279
No, No, frozen I I
always thought I know, But it's already

277
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:10.480
been constructed, already heated. No, because you know it's frozen. It's

278
00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:15.000
never been heated. It's not raw. Why would they heat it before they

279
00:19:15.079 --> 00:19:18.160
send it out if they're going to
freeze it. Everything in there is cooked,

280
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:22.039
yeah, and then cooked first and
then frozen. You're not because they

281
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:23.720
can't take the risk that some ding
dong isn't going to take it out of

282
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:27.039
the package and eat it raw and
get sick. But they sell chickens raw,

283
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:30.759
yeah, but not hot pockets.
Why do you think that is?

284
00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:41.000
People don't know, probably don't cook
chicken or know how to cook. I

285
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:42.519
was about to be offended than I
also don't know how to cook it,

286
00:19:42.559 --> 00:19:45.599
but I like hot. Because he
got out of a seat. Your face

287
00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:51.079
went from it infuriated to like,
oh you're you're actually not far off.

288
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:53.160
Oh she's right. I'm afraid to
cook chicken, but I've cooked them jillion

289
00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:56.880
hot pockets in my life. You
can put to roast it. Wait a

290
00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:00.319
minute, No on the package refrosed
food. Have ever heard that? But

291
00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:04.440
Totino's party pizza a hot pocket?
Anything? It says options microwave, you

292
00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:10.480
can do this. Bake bake at
four, so it is baking. The

293
00:20:10.599 --> 00:20:14.559
verb to bake like specifically means to
heat up in an oven, I believe.

294
00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:17.039
But like bait. When we say
baking, you know it's more like

295
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:22.640
actual using yeast or flour, and
baking is you have to wear the hat.

296
00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:27.440
The idea is that like you're putting
together substances mostly like you know,

297
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:32.480
like liquid stuff butter, eggs and
things like that, but once you've put

298
00:20:32.480 --> 00:20:38.359
it in the oven, the structure
of the entity actually changes and becomes a

299
00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:42.200
different substance. It requires an oven. Cooking does not. But you can

300
00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:48.240
also use an oven to roast something. So being refers to heating raw ingredients

301
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:51.960
to change their chemical compound. But
how you heat them is what makes it

302
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.200
baking. For something to be considered
baked, it must be heated using consistent

303
00:20:56.319 --> 00:21:02.400
dry heat. Yeah, is baking, So I have you're baking in the

304
00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:06.039
oven like the verb baking. But
to make it initially, they didn't just

305
00:21:06.160 --> 00:21:12.440
bake it, like I never thought
about the like making it before you make

306
00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:15.680
it thing. I just figured it
just like yeah, like hot dogs are

307
00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:19.759
already mainly like ready to go.
Yeah, yeah, because in case you

308
00:21:19.799 --> 00:21:23.279
eat it out of the package,
you're chickens, not because it's like it's

309
00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:29.559
chicken is like clearly raw. Like
no one would eat that. If I

310
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:32.960
took a ham and cheddar hot pocket
straight out of the freezer, out of

311
00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:36.240
the wrapper and just ate it frozen, I'd be fine. I wouldn't get

312
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:38.799
salmonella already, you would not get
salmonella. I don't think it would taste

313
00:21:38.920 --> 00:21:42.000
very good. And I bet you
that they would appreciate that you did not

314
00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:45.720
do that, but you would not
get sick because they've already cooked it.

315
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:48.960
You might get sick from some other
part of the packaging process, but it

316
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:53.160
wouldn't be like I don't think it'd
be food there, I agree with Mike.

317
00:21:53.319 --> 00:21:57.079
So here's the interesting thing during the
packaging process, because you're eating like

318
00:21:57.119 --> 00:22:00.279
a processed food. Yes, it's
cooked, but you know, like when

319
00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:04.559
you cook food, it gets rid
of all the bacteria. If you eat

320
00:22:04.599 --> 00:22:11.039
something frozen, it's really possible that
something in the packaging or traveling part got

321
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:15.920
bacteria in the food, and so
you could be ingesting bacteria. But it

322
00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:18.440
wouldn't be the same as having raw
chicken. It would be you'd be getting

323
00:22:18.440 --> 00:22:23.400
sick from something else. Something also
can kill similar germs, like it's extreme

324
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:27.079
temperatures that salmonella can't survive. I
don't know if freezing would prevent it though,

325
00:22:27.160 --> 00:22:33.359
So did humans evolve to cook things
because of flavor or because of avoiding

326
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:38.359
disease? Probably the latter, So
if it wasn't for the disease factor,

327
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:45.079
we're just beating everything cold. I
think like when when humans first invented fire

328
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:48.440
and cook some chicken, they were
like, this is going to keep us

329
00:22:48.519 --> 00:22:51.839
from getting sick, But then they
were like, shit, this tastes delicious.

330
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:56.400
And I think it's probably immediately both
because like once you eat roast chicken.

331
00:22:56.599 --> 00:23:00.359
You don't go back. You don't
go back to raw. Once you've

332
00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:03.799
had that, it's a lot better
hot. Like But before fire, though,

333
00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:07.680
do you think they people were just
kind of grinning and burying it and

334
00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:12.160
like eating cold chickens like not cooked
and getting sick a lot. I don't

335
00:23:12.839 --> 00:23:15.799
I don't know. I guess most
of that time the meat would have been

336
00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:19.839
red meat. So yeah, so
what did you kill the cow? Domesticated

337
00:23:19.920 --> 00:23:23.720
chickens back then? These are good
questions, right because like we're talking way

338
00:23:23.759 --> 00:23:30.000
back in the day was who knows
what was domesticated back then? These are

339
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:33.559
like wooly mammoth times where the so
question about red meat versus like chicken,

340
00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:37.079
so chicken, I know, salmonella, that's risky and all that stuff.

341
00:23:37.079 --> 00:23:40.720
But if I was walking down the
street and I saw a freshly dead cow

342
00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:44.480
just like it just fell over,
like right before I arrived, and I

343
00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:48.319
just ate it, would I be
fine the whole cow? No? I

344
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:51.599
mean, like the meaty parts,
like not brains, no, Like it's

345
00:23:51.680 --> 00:23:56.480
yeah, I mean you'd probably It's
more there's a high chance you're gonna get

346
00:23:56.519 --> 00:24:00.200
sick because you don't know like what
the cow already had how did they know

347
00:24:00.279 --> 00:24:04.039
when they make hamburgers and stuff that
the cow didn't have something? Well,

348
00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:07.559
that's why you cook it. You
kill you kill bacteria. So if a

349
00:24:07.599 --> 00:24:11.480
cow had like a virus or cold
or something, when you cook, cooking

350
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:15.119
is just like ensuring that you kill
all bacteria. Like if you had to

351
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:18.039
eat raw meat in the wild because
you couldn't make fire, you would do

352
00:24:18.079 --> 00:24:22.400
it, and the chances of you
getting sick are higher if you didn't cook

353
00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:25.000
it. I just had a really
stupid thought. So okay, so if

354
00:24:25.079 --> 00:24:30.079
cooking cow gets rid of all the
illnesses and everything. Hypothetically, let's say

355
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:33.160
I had a really bad illness I
had. I want to cook you.

356
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:37.640
Yeah, like, okay, there's
a human sized oven and I, uh,

357
00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:41.559
we somehow make it so I don't
die. No, we make it

358
00:24:41.559 --> 00:24:44.920
to I don't die, and I
can I go into an oven and it'll

359
00:24:44.960 --> 00:24:49.880
just cook my cold away. But
you you would die? No, I

360
00:24:49.920 --> 00:24:55.200
don't know. In this hypothetical experiment, I'm I'm like impermose because like you're

361
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:59.480
cold, you're cold. Most symptoms
of being sick is your body trying to

362
00:24:59.519 --> 00:25:03.759
expel of the germs. So so
you can cook it away. Think your

363
00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:07.480
body would then sense the extreme heat
and get sicker. Yeah, but what

364
00:25:07.599 --> 00:25:11.319
if I was impervious to like heat. If you're impervious to heat, then

365
00:25:11.319 --> 00:25:14.279
you're probably not getting a common cold
either. No, no, no,

366
00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:21.839
I'm super prone to illness. What
is this person you're imagining? My ideal

367
00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:33.119
self is impervious, catches colds frequently. What this is like some like perverted

368
00:25:33.359 --> 00:25:37.240
dream? I've always said this so
bad, This fucking Jack Kirby over here

369
00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:40.799
making the next superhero ever sometime a
little kid, what do you want to

370
00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:44.799
be when you grow up? To
heat but very prone to disease? A

371
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:48.519
comment headed towards the earth, And
the only way to stop it is for

372
00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:52.920
me to cook myself, like on
a grill, like on a skillet,

373
00:25:53.400 --> 00:25:57.039
sizzle like bacon on It would be
a good skill to have, to think

374
00:25:57.240 --> 00:26:00.039
the things you can do. If
you're impervious to eat, you'd be sickly

375
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:03.079
and in bed, so it wouldn't
it matter. Okay, But what if

376
00:26:03.079 --> 00:26:06.640
you didn't have that part and you
were just impervious to heat? I would

377
00:26:06.839 --> 00:26:08.799
like people, Yes, that's cool, but the way that you just can't

378
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:12.759
like added. But also I get
a lot of gold for the hypothetical for

379
00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:18.880
the hypothetical. Um, I don't
even think a train for you. I

380
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:22.000
don't think a medical doctor could answer
the question you asked. You'll have to

381
00:26:22.000 --> 00:26:25.359
bring them on to show. Let's
get a doctor. I imagine a doctor

382
00:26:25.400 --> 00:26:33.440
on this show answering Dan's wild questions
about body functions. I doctor, when

383
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:41.799
someone poop slam a jamas, both
of you stop saying incorrectly. I will

384
00:26:41.920 --> 00:26:51.960
not. I refuse to learn the
term PCSJ go on, so crue doctor,

385
00:26:52.519 --> 00:26:56.160
how much bacteria is on my hands? And does a really hot shower

386
00:26:56.240 --> 00:27:03.480
fix? I don't need soap?
Right? Come on, sam jamay what

387
00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:08.279
I don't know? I was trying
to say In Spanish slam of jamma translate

388
00:27:08.359 --> 00:27:21.039
to slam a jamma. If not
the old slam a jammamma, you're just

389
00:27:21.119 --> 00:27:32.920
saying it faster and weirder. Italian
the slam of jama been slam a jama

390
00:27:34.880 --> 00:27:49.480
used to jam mule the old who
the slammer jammer appropriation slammuel ld jammuel boy,

391
00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:55.680
Oh you skinny gata. Is that
a slam of jamma? Or I

392
00:27:55.680 --> 00:27:59.359
don't know. I get those mixed
up Australians like where's the cat New Zealanders.

393
00:27:59.359 --> 00:28:07.839
They're like the cat h a city
slammer. You can't it sound like

394
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:14.839
my friend who is a bogan self
proclaimed bogan. Why would you self proclaim

395
00:28:14.920 --> 00:28:19.839
you're a bogan. Bogan is like
a redneck. But in Australia. Oh

396
00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:22.119
interesting, Okay, well he's from
the suburbs, he says, but he

397
00:28:22.240 --> 00:28:26.880
does say it was like Bogan.
Suburbs in Australia is like the rural area,

398
00:28:26.960 --> 00:28:30.599
like the outback is just like most
of the west of the country,

399
00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:33.039
right, aren't all the cities like
on the east and south stuff on the

400
00:28:33.079 --> 00:28:37.119
west coast? It's like center is
is that? What would that be like

401
00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:41.359
the South in the US? Would
that be the analog? It's not.

402
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:45.119
It's it doesn't play out the same
geographically, I don't believe. But middle

403
00:28:45.440 --> 00:28:51.400
is genuinely like mostly desert and completely
unusable by Man's not like little villages or

404
00:28:51.400 --> 00:28:55.920
anything like that. There's like maybe
a couple ruse that are bouncing around in

405
00:28:55.960 --> 00:29:00.759
some lizards really good wine. Well
no, not desertly, it's it's it's

406
00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:04.119
very difficult to inhabit most of Australia. Really. Yeah, it's got to

407
00:29:04.119 --> 00:29:08.000
be a way they can fix that
right. Uh no, and then the

408
00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:12.799
place all the way on the other
side where no, also this other thing

409
00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:18.039
I was talking, how you deal
with Dan? No, no, Dan

410
00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:22.200
suggesting terraforming with horrible lasers. No, I'm thinking the two thousand things with

411
00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:26.359
the domes, like you could do
that. But yeah, isn't most of

412
00:29:26.359 --> 00:29:32.920
Australia's population southeast specifically? Yeah,
southeast? It's Sydney Melbourne? Yeah,

413
00:29:33.079 --> 00:29:37.480
yes, what's the what's the third
big city I'm missing besides Sydney Melbourne on

414
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:45.480
the East coast, Queens Brisbane,
Queen's Reich, the Queens Queens Queensland isn't

415
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:48.759
Queens the state or province or whatever
they call it. Yeah, and the

416
00:29:48.880 --> 00:29:53.680
Gold Coast is like all down here
and then you have nothing and then you

417
00:29:53.759 --> 00:29:59.279
have Perth. Perth is on the
west coast. Yeah okay, but it's

418
00:29:59.319 --> 00:30:03.119
not like our it's not like our
New York and California wars, Like nobody

419
00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:06.480
wants to be from Perth. Oh
ok sorry? What what would Perth be

420
00:30:06.640 --> 00:30:11.559
in America? Florida? But not? But like yeah, yeah, there

421
00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:22.160
you go. That's yeah. Is
that where parents moved to die? I

422
00:30:22.319 --> 00:30:26.039
don't know. I think it's where
you go to Yeah, like be forgotten.

423
00:30:26.440 --> 00:30:32.160
It's like it's like I'm leaving Facebook. You just disappear from society.

424
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:37.960
Who's I just talking to that.
I had a revelation, I know,

425
00:30:38.160 --> 00:30:44.839
like the older you get, the
less tolerant you are of cold weather.

426
00:30:45.039 --> 00:30:49.480
I didn't realize that a lot of
elderly people fair better in the heat because

427
00:30:49.559 --> 00:30:53.559
heat is better for arthritis, like
your joints whatnot. We you don't seize

428
00:30:53.640 --> 00:30:56.880
up as much, and it's it's
not as bad for I don't. I

429
00:30:56.160 --> 00:31:02.079
don't think that's like the same case
across every person. Is that like saunas

430
00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:06.000
and steam rooms and stuff. Maybe
a good sauna or steam room is a

431
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:11.119
solid like huge fan dude in the
morning. Yes, the sauna. My

432
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:15.759
gym's still closed, like they just
haven't reopened it. Since I'm about to

433
00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:21.160
get an airbnb that has a sauna
and a hot tub, and I'm really

434
00:31:21.279 --> 00:31:25.160
excited. I've done that. It's
fun. We do like both and then

435
00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:32.079
if it's cold, you can do
the like sauna snow hot tub multiple Yeah,

436
00:31:32.160 --> 00:31:34.160
like where you like lay in the
snow. That's super nice. Yeah,

437
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:37.880
I was reading that book that's on
the shelf. Id me Owls of

438
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:40.599
the Eastern Nice. I think I
talked about it on fire Skate before,

439
00:31:40.599 --> 00:31:44.200
but they were saying the Russian way
to do is, yeah, like stay

440
00:31:44.240 --> 00:31:45.839
in until you can barely stand it, and then you go out and you

441
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:49.920
rub snow all over your body and
like you just you go from extreme to

442
00:31:51.000 --> 00:31:53.240
extreme, which is good for your
body apparent like circulation wise is really good

443
00:31:53.240 --> 00:31:56.319
for you. That's a tradition at
Ben Hanson's lakehouse. He's got a sauna

444
00:31:56.440 --> 00:32:00.680
in the lake house, and like
he will like pour so much water on

445
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:02.359
it, so it's just like everyone's
dying in there, and we're just like

446
00:32:02.440 --> 00:32:04.960
sorry, how long can we say? And how long can we say?

447
00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:06.880
And then we just sprunt out and
we go into the lake like yeah,

448
00:32:06.920 --> 00:32:07.839
three in the morning, and it's, oh my god, this is the

449
00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:10.160
best feeling in the world. It
is good. I feel like it's good

450
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:14.200
for you. I have to a
degree obviously, like don't push it too

451
00:32:14.279 --> 00:32:17.559
hard, but like cold plunging is
supposed to be great for your body,

452
00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:22.880
like the idea of essentially you're warm, you want to be warm, but

453
00:32:22.039 --> 00:32:28.599
submerging your body all the way into
like icy cold water for a minute and

454
00:32:28.680 --> 00:32:31.759
then getting out and getting warm is
supposed to like really help jolt your system

455
00:32:32.039 --> 00:32:37.319
and like restart you know, your
engines and stuff like that. We had

456
00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:39.160
people swear by like the cold shower
thing every day. I do. Like

457
00:32:39.400 --> 00:32:43.480
I started doing a cold shower every
once in a while. We had a

458
00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:46.200
problem with our water heater and we
live in a brownstone, so I had

459
00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:50.759
to go all the way to the
garden level apartment to like it turned out

460
00:32:50.799 --> 00:32:52.200
the pilot light, which is fucked. I think like wind had blown it

461
00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:55.960
out when during renovations down there.
But we didn't have cold water for like

462
00:32:57.160 --> 00:33:00.519
two days and we had to wait
for the gas and electric company to come

463
00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:04.279
check it out. So I was
like forced to do cold showers. And

464
00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:07.160
it always sucks when you first get
in it because like you can't breathe.

465
00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:10.599
It's it feels like you can't breathe. But then the more you get used

466
00:33:10.599 --> 00:33:15.119
to it, like it's way better
than caffeine, like waking up and being

467
00:33:15.160 --> 00:33:17.960
alert. But I would I don't
do it every day. I'm not a

468
00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:22.039
so like sociopath, but it is
kind of nice every once in a while.

469
00:33:22.440 --> 00:33:30.200
I really I like the cold coffee
technique where you let's just where you

470
00:33:30.319 --> 00:33:37.119
drink nice coffee too. I shour
a nice coffee and then I shipped my

471
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:42.680
hand. Damn it, stop bringing
it back. Uh. My aunt and

472
00:33:42.799 --> 00:33:47.279
uncle were visiting me and I every
morning. They want a nice cup of

473
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:51.559
coffee. That's what they wanted to
wake up with. I understand that I'm

474
00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:53.359
a good host. They always got
a nice, hot cup of coffee.

475
00:33:53.400 --> 00:33:58.119
But it was like ninety degrees this
last weekend, and so I gave them

476
00:33:58.160 --> 00:34:01.799
their their coffee and I made myself
an iced coffee, and they, I

477
00:34:01.880 --> 00:34:05.079
want to say, like they were
giving me any shit about it, but

478
00:34:05.079 --> 00:34:07.920
they were basically like, you drinking
iced coffee like all the time. And

479
00:34:07.000 --> 00:34:09.519
I was like, all the time, if it's hot, I want an

480
00:34:09.679 --> 00:34:13.079
iced coffee, And they were like, I would never have an nice coffee.

481
00:34:13.079 --> 00:34:15.239
I always have a hot coffee,
even on the hottest days. And

482
00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:19.639
I think it's a generational thing because
like, I don't really know a lot

483
00:34:19.719 --> 00:34:24.159
of parents that have iced coffees or
even like consider it. But I couldn't

484
00:34:24.239 --> 00:34:28.920
imagine a hot day without a delicious
iced coffee in my hand instead of a

485
00:34:29.000 --> 00:34:31.559
hot coffee. And it's just like
second nature to me. I feel like

486
00:34:31.599 --> 00:34:35.199
growing up, you didn't really see
a lot of ice likeing media and stuff

487
00:34:35.320 --> 00:34:37.079
or Starbucks probably changed the game,
don't you thing? I think, yeah,

488
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:39.440
And I feel like Starbucks didn't.
We first start hearing about it really

489
00:34:39.480 --> 00:34:44.880
and like the late nineties it became
donuts as well, like I thought,

490
00:34:45.079 --> 00:34:49.760
yeah, yeah, they what were
those called, Mike, do you remember?

491
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:55.960
They had like iced coffee drinks that
were not called iced coffee and orange

492
00:34:57.000 --> 00:35:05.679
maca frappuccino something orange macca frapp macina. I do both because I'll always make

493
00:35:05.719 --> 00:35:08.920
too much in the pot that we
have, and then I'll put it into

494
00:35:09.079 --> 00:35:13.239
a thermis, put that in the
fridge for the next day. It's not

495
00:35:13.400 --> 00:35:15.360
cold brew, obviously, but it's
ice coffee, so the next day I'll

496
00:35:15.559 --> 00:35:20.400
take it out, pour it and
then I'm not wasting any I am you.

497
00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:23.880
I do the same thing every day. I have I brew coffee like

498
00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:28.880
a regular person, and then whatever's
left over, it goes into the fridge,

499
00:35:28.960 --> 00:35:31.320
and then I have iced coffee for
when I need it. I realize

500
00:35:31.440 --> 00:35:35.559
I used to have iced coffee every
day when I worked at the CBS office

501
00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:37.960
in New York. Oh yeah,
yeah, And I would be bummed when

502
00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:40.760
it switched over to like only hot. And I realized, like, we

503
00:35:40.880 --> 00:35:44.760
have a coffee machine here, and
I make coffee almost every day now,

504
00:35:44.800 --> 00:35:47.679
but it's always hot. If I
wanted to make if we have a coffee

505
00:35:47.719 --> 00:35:52.159
machine, do I have the means
to make it iced? Not like immediately

506
00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:54.880
again, I what I do.
I pour it into a thermis, put

507
00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:58.360
in the fridge, and then later
that day or the next day. That's

508
00:35:58.400 --> 00:36:00.960
important, that in the cup and
then because if you put it on ice

509
00:36:00.119 --> 00:36:04.880
and it's hot, you're gonna water
down the ship out of your coffee and

510
00:36:04.960 --> 00:36:07.760
then it's just going to be liquid. So the secret is is to make

511
00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:14.239
coffee like regular coffee and slowly cool
it in your fridge, or make hyper

512
00:36:14.519 --> 00:36:19.000
concentrated coffee, which you could also
do right double the amount of grounds you

513
00:36:19.039 --> 00:36:22.239
put in it so it's like slidge, and then immediately put ice in it

514
00:36:22.320 --> 00:36:24.320
to cool it down if you want
it right away. So it's I think

515
00:36:24.320 --> 00:36:28.199
Bonx just said she accidentally got like
too big of a thing for the ice

516
00:36:28.280 --> 00:36:30.639
cot or for her normal coffee,
and she just put it in like a

517
00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:32.679
cup in the fridge, And I
can just fill that with ice and just

518
00:36:32.760 --> 00:36:36.440
pour it on top of that and
that's basically just straight up an ice coffee

519
00:36:36.519 --> 00:36:38.920
right at that point. Yeah,
which is different than cold brew cobrew is

520
00:36:38.920 --> 00:36:45.000
obviously like actually made over like with
cold freezing cold water over time, which

521
00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:51.960
is really cool. Yeah, I
like just sold reusing the hot coffee method.

522
00:36:52.039 --> 00:36:53.760
It's totally functional for me, and
I feel like I'm not wasting it.

523
00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:57.400
How many times have you like poured
out half a pot of coffee?

524
00:36:57.440 --> 00:36:59.639
I know, Dan, I don't
think you make pots. I think you

525
00:36:59.800 --> 00:37:04.199
have one of them pods, whatever
they're called. I've never drink coffee out

526
00:37:04.199 --> 00:37:06.119
of a pot, and I don't
really know how they work. I've seen

527
00:37:06.199 --> 00:37:07.679
them, but it's always intimidate.
You have a pot in your house,

528
00:37:07.840 --> 00:37:12.079
you have the pod. No,
he's saying, you're saying two different things.

529
00:37:12.119 --> 00:37:14.920
She's saying pod. He's saying,
dance saying pot. We use the

530
00:37:15.000 --> 00:37:17.679
pods. I've never made a pot
of coffee or I don't think I've ever

531
00:37:17.800 --> 00:37:22.840
drank coffee out of a pot.
I don't know how. I know beans

532
00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:23.960
are involved, that's all I know. Like I done to my head,

533
00:37:23.960 --> 00:37:27.679
I would have no idea how to
work a pot of coffee. You haven't

534
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:30.159
made it. That's fine, I've
made you a pot of coffee here.

535
00:37:30.199 --> 00:37:32.079
Oh, I believe it. I
believe it. I just I've never seen

536
00:37:32.199 --> 00:37:35.920
I've never consciously grabbed a pot and
been like, oh, I'm pouring my

537
00:37:35.960 --> 00:37:40.599
coffee. It's it's it's like a
drip coffee. But experience would I would

538
00:37:40.639 --> 00:37:45.079
try. Look, all I know
is that like ninety pieces involved you need

539
00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:49.800
like the weird filtery things. No, there are beans that you get out

540
00:37:49.800 --> 00:37:52.400
of a vending machine at the grocery
store. Is it just beans? I

541
00:37:52.400 --> 00:37:57.960
don't really understand the filter situation.
And I don't know what else is involved.

542
00:37:58.079 --> 00:38:01.840
Water is involved, yes, And
I don't drinking the beans or if

543
00:38:01.840 --> 00:38:07.000
they get ground up into your pot, or if the beans get You're not

544
00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:10.119
ingesting the beans, right, You're
ingesting the caffeine and the runoff from the

545
00:38:10.159 --> 00:38:13.960
beans. Which is you you if
you can get the whole beans, or

546
00:38:14.000 --> 00:38:16.840
you can get the like actually pre
ground beans. If you get the whole

547
00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:20.760
beans, do you have to grind
them? Yeah? It tastes better,

548
00:38:20.840 --> 00:38:24.400
it tastes I wonder what happens if
you just pour water over whole beans.

549
00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:28.199
You would not get like, you
barely get any flavor. It would just

550
00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:31.400
be different hot water with and when
you grind them up, it's running through

551
00:38:31.639 --> 00:38:36.960
like coffee mud, so then it
strains through the filter. By the time

552
00:38:37.000 --> 00:38:38.239
it's dripping, it's like, oh, so you're just drinking water, and

553
00:38:38.320 --> 00:38:42.840
that's like been hanging out in your
beans. That's hot water that's been dripped

554
00:38:42.960 --> 00:38:45.719
through like a pile of coffee grounds
in the filter. The filter stops the

555
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:49.599
grit from getting into the drink,
and the nep of that flavor stays in

556
00:38:49.639 --> 00:38:52.559
the water, even if you're going, yeah, it's marinated baby. I

557
00:38:52.639 --> 00:38:58.000
also love the catchphrase, so it's
just water that's been hanging out with some

558
00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:02.000
means. If I took jelly bellies
and I poured a bunch of water over

559
00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:06.599
the jellybellies and had a cup underneath
it, it wouldn't be like delicious candy

560
00:39:06.639 --> 00:39:10.000
water. You're wrong, it would
It would be pretty delicious. So if

561
00:39:10.400 --> 00:39:15.079
you ever had have you ever had
skittle brew where you put skittles and vodka

562
00:39:15.480 --> 00:39:19.960
together, Oh, somebody had a
party once in college that had this type

563
00:39:19.960 --> 00:39:22.599
of stuff and it was delicious and
awesome. Yeah, it's not too dissimilar.

564
00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:27.679
Think about it, and I think
we could do it in a coffee

565
00:39:27.719 --> 00:39:30.719
machine. You could would suck the
coffee. Now, skittles would fuck a

566
00:39:30.719 --> 00:39:36.599
coffee machine. Why I see?
I think trying to grind skittles would fuck

567
00:39:36.639 --> 00:39:37.599
a grind her up. I think, oh, does a coffee machine?

568
00:39:37.760 --> 00:39:43.000
Does a coffee machine itself grind the
stuff? Some don't. Usually This is

569
00:39:43.039 --> 00:39:45.599
what I think you should do with
a coffee pot. You take like a

570
00:39:45.719 --> 00:39:49.840
knife and you just, you know, you coarsely chop your skits, and

571
00:39:49.960 --> 00:39:57.440
then you put them in the coffee
maker in the basket. It filter and

572
00:39:57.519 --> 00:40:01.320
if you run water through that,
you should get delicious skittle water. I

573
00:40:01.480 --> 00:40:04.800
feel like if that was the case, this would be the biggest thing in

574
00:40:04.800 --> 00:40:06.480
the world, and you'd hear about
it all the time, like more than

575
00:40:06.559 --> 00:40:09.719
coffee. Why more people talking about
skittle hot skittles. It must be gross,

576
00:40:09.800 --> 00:40:14.559
It must you have because it must
be gross. Otherwise everybody would love

577
00:40:14.599 --> 00:40:16.199
this ship. You would have to
divide the colors up. Otherwise you get

578
00:40:16.239 --> 00:40:22.360
this weird rainbow like brownish class.
I could get grape skittles and just make

579
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:24.920
grape skittles coffee, Yes, you
absolutely go. It wouldn't be coffee.

580
00:40:25.239 --> 00:40:29.000
It wouldn't be coffee, It would
just be water. It's just hot or

581
00:40:29.039 --> 00:40:34.840
cold. It's hot at first down
now cold like cold would not I don't

582
00:40:34.920 --> 00:40:37.519
think would trap as much as the
flavor. Oh hot sucks it in.

583
00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:39.440
The flavor more. I don't know
if it sucks it in, but it

584
00:40:39.559 --> 00:40:44.400
runs through coffee grounds. It melts
it right, because you're melting the sugar

585
00:40:44.679 --> 00:40:47.000
into the water, so it ross. It's like further cooking it a bit

586
00:40:47.079 --> 00:40:52.199
more with the skittle brow with the
liquor. Right, you're putting skittles,

587
00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:58.039
and I would buy six six bottles
of liquor of vodka, and then you

588
00:40:58.360 --> 00:41:01.039
divide the skittles into all their colors, and you put the skittles into the

589
00:41:01.159 --> 00:41:05.880
vodka bottles and you shake them once
a day and you keep them under your

590
00:41:05.920 --> 00:41:07.320
bed. I'm not kidding. I
did this, no, I know.

591
00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:13.960
But that's soaking. That's not like
the coffee process and the alcohol because it's

592
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:19.679
vodka. Like into away at the
color and the sugar and the flavor.

593
00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:22.719
And now towards the end, you
still have the remnants of the core of

594
00:41:22.840 --> 00:41:27.400
the skittle, like you still have
that gooey center. What it tastes like.

595
00:41:28.119 --> 00:41:31.840
It tastes like skittles delicious And wait, Wait, the core of the

596
00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:37.480
skittle still tastes the core, So
I did eat one. Uh it's really

597
00:41:37.639 --> 00:41:43.239
lost a lot of it's like goodness. I wouldn't recommend eating the core,

598
00:41:43.639 --> 00:41:47.800
so it just transfers the flavor into
VA kind of sucks the flavor in skittles

599
00:41:47.920 --> 00:41:52.840
from the coloring, not the center. I don't know the rules of that.

600
00:41:52.079 --> 00:41:55.559
I know with flour Skittles, all
the flavor is on the shell because

601
00:41:55.599 --> 00:42:00.199
that's where all the shower crystals are. It's definitely the shell because orange skins

602
00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:02.079
they use the same flavoring as orange
tic TACs, and those are both very

603
00:42:02.079 --> 00:42:06.719
different materials outside. But it's definitely
the show. Damn, that's not such

604
00:42:06.760 --> 00:42:09.440
a cool fact that, you know. Can we do? I want people

605
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:17.719
to try an emails so sarcastic,
wow, damn dude that I want people

606
00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:22.239
to tweet. I want people to
try skittles coffee, and I want them

607
00:42:22.280 --> 00:42:23.679
to send pictures to the fire,
skip Twitter, an email and let us

608
00:42:23.719 --> 00:42:28.320
know how this goes. Sky Crow
is delicious. I've made when I was

609
00:42:28.360 --> 00:42:30.800
like twenty one, as his tradition, But if you don't want to get

610
00:42:30.840 --> 00:42:31.519
drunk, if you just want like
a nice treat, in the morning,

611
00:42:31.639 --> 00:42:36.320
Like I would love to like just
have a nice ti just that's weird to

612
00:42:36.360 --> 00:42:37.920
do in the morning. I want
to make like a classy drink. I

613
00:42:38.039 --> 00:42:43.239
love these, is not I love
the idea though, going back to it

614
00:42:43.480 --> 00:42:47.239
that like when he's making skittles in
a coffee maker that he's like, I

615
00:42:47.360 --> 00:42:52.280
made skittles coffee, and it's like
that's just water. It's just wait,

616
00:42:52.400 --> 00:42:57.079
isn't that? Couldn't you say about
coffee not unless you put coffee beans in

617
00:42:57.199 --> 00:43:00.280
it, But you're putting skittles in
it? Why are skittles different than beans?

618
00:43:00.880 --> 00:43:05.599
Well? Are you asking how candy
skittles are different from coffee beans?

619
00:43:05.719 --> 00:43:07.280
You know what I'm saying? Why
is it different? Like if coffee is

620
00:43:07.360 --> 00:43:12.000
not, if copy is more than
water, why is Why was it just

621
00:43:12.079 --> 00:43:15.079
water skittles and not a whole different
thing? You know? I mean think

622
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:19.239
I'm not disagreeing that you could do
what you're doing. I just don't think

623
00:43:19.280 --> 00:43:22.360
it's going to turn out the way
you're expecting. Maybe it will and you'll

624
00:43:22.400 --> 00:43:24.480
have a new morning ritual on your
hands, but I just don't think it

625
00:43:24.519 --> 00:43:30.920
will. I think it'll taste it
Like, I mean, like, what

626
00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:37.320
is the what is the analog I'm
thinking of? Um, really out there,

627
00:43:37.559 --> 00:43:42.679
it's like milk with like leftover milk
after cereal. I feel like it's

628
00:43:42.719 --> 00:43:45.400
going to be that sort of flavor, like just the fat, weird hint

629
00:43:45.480 --> 00:43:47.599
of it. Yeah, I don't
like leftover milk. I mean, obviously

630
00:43:47.679 --> 00:43:52.239
if it's fresh after like, it's
not good like the day later. But

631
00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:58.480
like I for dessert sometimes if I'm
lazy and I don't have anything in the

632
00:43:58.559 --> 00:44:02.400
house, I'll make myself off a
bowl of sugary cereal. Yeah, and

633
00:44:04.079 --> 00:44:09.039
drinking the milk afterwards is delicious because
it's all sweet, sweet, sweet milk.

634
00:44:09.880 --> 00:44:15.960
It's like drinking the liquid that pools
up by the gutter and it's just

635
00:44:15.079 --> 00:44:19.079
like it's like, oh, that's
old and discarded, Like that's not meant

636
00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:22.679
for consumption. You know, it's
gravy, baby, It's the essence of

637
00:44:22.760 --> 00:44:29.239
pure flavor. It's been marinating and
all the good stuff. I thought,

638
00:44:29.280 --> 00:44:30.760
we don't have the whole thing.
I just want to say, I just

639
00:44:30.880 --> 00:44:32.400
realized I don't know where gravy comes
from. We don't have to go into

640
00:44:32.400 --> 00:44:36.159
a whole thing about it. Are
you saying it's I just I'm just making

641
00:44:36.199 --> 00:44:37.840
a mental note to myself to look
up we're gravy, to write it down

642
00:44:37.920 --> 00:44:43.519
for next week. I don't fully
know how to make gravy. All right,

643
00:44:43.679 --> 00:44:54.000
here we go. So when you're
making gravy, making gravy, um,

644
00:44:55.000 --> 00:45:00.960
no, I know? Is there
flour involved some gravy? Yeah,

645
00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:06.400
the secret is rue. And you
probably want to have cooked meat in a

646
00:45:06.480 --> 00:45:08.760
pan. So yeah, because you
use the turkey. You get there for

647
00:45:08.840 --> 00:45:15.199
turkey gravy. When you're cooking a
meat, typically you're cooking it on a

648
00:45:15.320 --> 00:45:20.599
hot skillet and it's making that like
yummy crispy edge on them, on like

649
00:45:20.719 --> 00:45:23.280
steak that you like, right,
it's got that char When you take the

650
00:45:23.400 --> 00:45:29.519
steak off, there's inevitably like meat
edge juice that's still on that pan.

651
00:45:29.639 --> 00:45:30.760
You know what. It's like baking
grease, like bacon grease and stuff.

652
00:45:30.840 --> 00:45:36.840
Right, it is like greasy.
It's mostly like the bits I'm gonna call

653
00:45:36.880 --> 00:45:40.000
it bits. Is it made of
turkey? It's made it of whatever meat

654
00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:44.079
that you cooked in the pan.
There's lots of different types of gravy.

655
00:45:44.119 --> 00:45:47.679
There's there's turkey gravy, there's um. You know, you can make gravy

656
00:45:47.719 --> 00:45:52.480
out of steak. You can make
it out of any meat whatever. Thanksgiving

657
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:55.599
like gravy over like that could be
somebody who's making turkey, and usually turkey

658
00:45:55.639 --> 00:46:00.480
gravy, and so it's turkey drippings, right, and then you make a

659
00:46:00.639 --> 00:46:08.519
root and a root dripping, like
subscribe turkey with me, the delicious oils

660
00:46:08.599 --> 00:46:15.480
and drippings that fall fought turkey.
When that's why gravy is just fattening.

661
00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:21.559
Oh, and then you make a
rut which is typically flour and a liquid

662
00:46:21.639 --> 00:46:28.360
which generally in our case would be
milk, a thick milk and butter,

663
00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:35.559
and you kind of like stir it
all together and it becomes this vis viscous

664
00:46:35.840 --> 00:46:40.000
liquid and you put that in the
drippings and you stir it all together,

665
00:46:40.199 --> 00:46:44.840
and then you add maybe some seasonings. It's usually like salt, pepper,

666
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:47.800
maybe time, whatever, you know, seasons you want, and that's gravy

667
00:46:47.840 --> 00:46:52.639
base. Maybe that sounds extremely unhealthy, but also even just the waves described

668
00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:58.039
sounds even more delicious. It's like
both of those things. No one's healthy

669
00:46:58.079 --> 00:47:02.880
on Thanksgiving. No gravy is like
just no. Anytime you're having biscuits and

670
00:47:04.039 --> 00:47:08.079
gravy, those biscuits are made out
of butter and flour and that gravy is

671
00:47:08.159 --> 00:47:13.239
made out of butter and flour and
like meat, and that's it. That's

672
00:47:13.280 --> 00:47:19.880
what you're ingesting. It's delicious.
It's yeah, oh god, hell yeah,

673
00:47:20.159 --> 00:47:22.239
I want biscuits and gravy. There's
a really good biscuits and gravy place

674
00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:27.480
here. Maybe I'll take you guys
when you visit me Um And they do

675
00:47:27.800 --> 00:47:30.800
like real fun biscuits and gravy.
So it's like they have biscuits and gravy.

676
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:35.679
But then they have ones that have
like maybe like uh, they'll they'll

677
00:47:35.719 --> 00:47:37.159
put twists on it, or maybe
they'll be apple butter on it, and

678
00:47:37.239 --> 00:47:40.519
maybe one of them it's a sandwich
and it's got like some mustard and honey

679
00:47:40.639 --> 00:47:45.239
on it. They changed the change
the system based on like what you're but

680
00:47:45.320 --> 00:47:52.440
they have tradish, biscuits and gravy
for anyone who would want it. So

681
00:47:52.559 --> 00:47:55.360
good. I know, we we
gotta be careful talking about food because you

682
00:47:55.440 --> 00:48:00.199
know you'll get excited. Tell me
feel good, you did it. I

683
00:48:00.280 --> 00:48:02.199
didn't ask that. It started by
feeling Yeah. Every year it's a long

684
00:48:02.280 --> 00:48:06.840
walk to making your stomach feel My
tummy feels better. Thank you. After

685
00:48:06.960 --> 00:48:12.800
the slamjam will be slam city,
get it right, Jesus will be slam

686
00:48:12.880 --> 00:48:20.760
mill, gim mill. I'm so
good at France. You guys want to

687
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:23.840
talk about video games. Sure,
I haven't really been playing anything lately.

688
00:48:27.719 --> 00:48:32.679
Yeah, I mean playing games right
now. When we had talked specifically last

689
00:48:32.719 --> 00:48:37.519
episode about the preview event, I
think at that point I would have been

690
00:48:37.599 --> 00:48:42.679
like trying remember when we were recorded, probably like thirty five forty hours into

691
00:48:42.760 --> 00:48:45.800
years the case said you said forty. I think okay, I don't remeber

692
00:48:45.800 --> 00:48:46.280
you said that on air. If
you just told me, I think it

693
00:48:46.400 --> 00:48:52.599
was like forty. Yeah. Now
I'm one hundred sure for review. I

694
00:48:52.719 --> 00:48:54.920
filed my draft after having played like
seventy five, but then by the time

695
00:48:55.039 --> 00:49:00.039
the review published three days later,
I had gotten to a closer to one

696
00:49:00.119 --> 00:49:06.119
hundred. Can I make up public
admission here that I haven't really talked about

697
00:49:06.159 --> 00:49:12.320
publicly before. With you telling me
how many hours you can put into this

698
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:17.639
game, and with me seeing the
outlandish and wily things people are constructing online,

699
00:49:19.800 --> 00:49:23.800
I feel intimidated and a little like
anxious. When I pick up the

700
00:49:23.920 --> 00:49:28.079
game. It's overwhelming at first,
for sure, the amount of freedom they

701
00:49:28.119 --> 00:49:30.840
give you. However, I will
say the more you play real quick hand.

702
00:49:30.880 --> 00:49:31.679
I just want to tell people that
they are listening. We aren't going

703
00:49:31.719 --> 00:49:36.920
to go into specific spoilers here because
I'm letting you two lead it, and

704
00:49:36.920 --> 00:49:39.039
I'll jump in. I'm not even
ten hours in. Yeah, I'm like

705
00:49:39.119 --> 00:49:42.639
ten to twenty hours to that point, though, Mary, I will say

706
00:49:42.719 --> 00:49:47.480
that, like, there are long
stretches of my hundred whatever hours where it

707
00:49:47.599 --> 00:49:52.920
felt just like Breath of the Wild, loop exploring and sure you're still using

708
00:49:52.000 --> 00:49:59.199
ultra hand fairly often, very vaguely
speaking. I will actually say the parts

709
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:02.599
of the game I really disliked are
when they force you into making one specific

710
00:50:02.719 --> 00:50:05.880
thing to solve the puzzle. I
think the game is at its best when

711
00:50:05.880 --> 00:50:08.039
you can solve puzzle. Like,
however, you want different ways, Yeah,

712
00:50:08.079 --> 00:50:13.199
but it is. I mean,
we have people on staff, Cass

713
00:50:13.280 --> 00:50:16.039
Marshall had written a thing about how
like it was too overwhelming for them to

714
00:50:16.199 --> 00:50:19.800
enjoy. They went back to the
breath like, Breath of Wild still exists.

715
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:22.199
It's still an awesome game. It's
a simple world. And when I

716
00:50:22.360 --> 00:50:29.320
play video games, I really I
am careful about how much challenge I want

717
00:50:29.360 --> 00:50:32.719
to give myself because I am there
to escape and and you know, just

718
00:50:32.960 --> 00:50:37.440
enjoy myself. And I think I
found myself in the beginning moments of that

719
00:50:37.559 --> 00:50:45.679
game having a bit of anxiety about
being asked to be an engineer, which

720
00:50:45.800 --> 00:50:51.679
is not something I personally want in
my game. And I was almost afraid

721
00:50:51.719 --> 00:50:53.559
to say it because I was like, I feel like people are so Zelda

722
00:50:53.599 --> 00:51:00.280
crazy. I'll be this outlier,
but it it it's not why I would

723
00:51:00.280 --> 00:51:05.320
pick up a Zelda game is to
do that and to make machines and flying

724
00:51:05.519 --> 00:51:07.639
mechanisms. I see what you're saying, and that like you'll see the clips

725
00:51:07.639 --> 00:51:13.440
of people like I made this thing
with like pistons and yeah, where it's

726
00:51:13.480 --> 00:51:15.760
like, look, I am far
from an engineer, I believe it or

727
00:51:15.800 --> 00:51:20.239
not. And I find that it
get out of town. I know that

728
00:51:20.360 --> 00:51:22.039
maybe a shocker, but to me, it's just kind of like, you

729
00:51:22.079 --> 00:51:24.920
know, there's the guy with the
signs. This is a guy that always

730
00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:28.599
needs to like stand up a sign
and you run into him and it's like

731
00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:30.559
it's always next to some wood and
stuff like that. Oh yeah, he

732
00:51:30.599 --> 00:51:34.400
has to put up this like real
estate sign or something like that. And

733
00:51:34.559 --> 00:51:37.800
it's to me, it's not like
an engineering feed. I kind of look

734
00:51:37.840 --> 00:51:39.920
at it as like, all right, I got some planks, I got

735
00:51:40.000 --> 00:51:44.719
some wood here, what, I'm
just gonna slap some shit together in a

736
00:51:44.760 --> 00:51:47.119
weird way. It's it's physics to
me more than engineering. It's more just

737
00:51:47.280 --> 00:51:51.280
like you know, it may look. It always looks very ugly. I

738
00:51:51.440 --> 00:51:52.679
never have some stroke of genius where
it's like, oh, yes, if

739
00:51:52.719 --> 00:51:55.199
I put this at a perpendicular access. It's never that. It's just like,

740
00:51:55.320 --> 00:51:58.840
I'm gonna slap a bunch of bullshit
together and see if it stands up.

741
00:51:59.119 --> 00:52:01.400
And I I think it's because of
that, I never get too intimidated

742
00:52:01.440 --> 00:52:06.639
by it. And also the Mike, I think you mentioned that if it

743
00:52:06.679 --> 00:52:09.719
wants you to create one specific thing. Um, I've never really found that.

744
00:52:09.840 --> 00:52:14.960
Like there are the shrines where it's
well, it's like, yeah,

745
00:52:15.239 --> 00:52:17.760
maybe it's it's parts that you told
me you didn't want to talk about.

746
00:52:19.119 --> 00:52:21.679
Oh oh okay, well then I
haven't seen that. But I've done like

747
00:52:21.840 --> 00:52:24.239
thirty shrines now, and like,
there are definitely the ones where it's like

748
00:52:24.519 --> 00:52:29.280
here's a bunch of rockets and here's
here's some stuff to attach it to and

749
00:52:29.400 --> 00:52:31.239
you can tell it's tied to Like, okay, I'm gonna use rockets to

750
00:52:31.320 --> 00:52:35.239
solve this. But I have had
numerous like a bunch of shrines and stuff

751
00:52:35.239 --> 00:52:37.039
where it's like, Okay, I
can tell what it wants me to do.

752
00:52:37.639 --> 00:52:38.880
But when I was going for the
treasure chest, I wind up over

753
00:52:39.000 --> 00:52:42.519
here and I've got this in this
I wonder if I could by by,

754
00:52:42.679 --> 00:52:44.400
And then I'm like, oh shit, that works, you know, so

755
00:52:44.519 --> 00:52:47.039
I feel like that freedom is still
there again. I don't know specifically what

756
00:52:47.119 --> 00:52:50.719
you're talking about, Mike, that
I haven't seen yet, but so far

757
00:52:51.079 --> 00:52:53.280
I have found it to mostly be
just like I'll slaps some stuff together and

758
00:52:53.320 --> 00:52:55.280
see if it works, and if
it doesn't, it's usually in a funny

759
00:52:55.320 --> 00:53:00.320
way. I like the freedom,
and I do agree, I don't feel

760
00:53:00.360 --> 00:53:04.920
like I'm required to. I guess
what I'm saying is is, you know,

761
00:53:05.000 --> 00:53:07.840
when we're playing Sons the Forest and
some people get really into constructing the

762
00:53:07.960 --> 00:53:15.559
houses, and some people get really
interested in building mechanic You were really excited

763
00:53:15.559 --> 00:53:17.320
about finding something in a book and
being like, I'm going to build this

764
00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:22.320
fish trap and I'm going to construct
this elaborate thing. Do you remember what

765
00:53:22.559 --> 00:53:30.639
I spent my time doing chasing squirrels
around I was bashing squirrels. I genuinely

766
00:53:30.760 --> 00:53:34.480
think that when I get most excited
about playing a game, it's to have

767
00:53:34.679 --> 00:53:38.480
a simple task and just try to
execute it perfectly. That is where I

768
00:53:38.599 --> 00:53:43.800
find the most joy. And so
when you put me in a sandbox like

769
00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:49.320
that, what happens is I revert
back to my most basic instincts and I

770
00:53:49.400 --> 00:53:52.880
try and bash rats. And so
you put me in this game with all

771
00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:58.000
these this possibility of engineering, and
I'm like, I'm going to find the

772
00:53:58.119 --> 00:54:01.000
biggest, toughest guy on the field
and I'm going to beat his ass.

773
00:54:01.559 --> 00:54:05.400
And that's kind of what I've done
with my time so far, as I've

774
00:54:05.440 --> 00:54:08.719
just become this maniacal killer because it's
what I'm adjusted to and I feel comfortable

775
00:54:08.880 --> 00:54:13.119
doing it. I don't know if
I'm playing the game the way you're supposed

776
00:54:13.159 --> 00:54:15.719
to. Well, so yeah,
maybe it's fine. No. Yeah.

777
00:54:15.800 --> 00:54:19.639
I literally wrote like a PSA thing
that went up after the review. It's

778
00:54:19.639 --> 00:54:22.800
like, there's no correct way to
play this game. Again, that's part

779
00:54:22.800 --> 00:54:24.159
of the beauty of it. Yeah, like you can play, but it's

780
00:54:24.159 --> 00:54:28.400
a different than me. That's a
daunting preposition for a lot of people.

781
00:54:28.440 --> 00:54:31.360
I think Breath of the Wild,
in hindsight, was extremely simple compared to

782
00:54:31.440 --> 00:54:37.840
this, and Zelda as a series
has always very much been about like the

783
00:54:37.000 --> 00:54:43.760
one solution to a problem teaching you, and it is. It's like a

784
00:54:43.880 --> 00:54:50.199
masterclass in game design where it's teaching
you a mechanic and it's laid out a

785
00:54:50.440 --> 00:54:55.960
perfect situation for you to learn the
mechanic very well. I do think that

786
00:54:57.159 --> 00:55:00.840
this game does that. In my
very early stages of the game, when

787
00:55:00.880 --> 00:55:08.840
it was trying to teach me very
simple bouts of construction or fusion, I

788
00:55:09.199 --> 00:55:15.960
understood what it was trying to teach
me, and I did like that when

789
00:55:15.039 --> 00:55:17.760
I came across my first puzzle where
I was like, I actually don't know

790
00:55:17.840 --> 00:55:21.599
how to solve this, I think
I solved it in a way that other

791
00:55:21.679 --> 00:55:24.519
people didn't and that made me feel
really smart. So I've enjoyed that aspect

792
00:55:24.559 --> 00:55:28.000
of it. I guess what I'm
just saying is is I feel a little

793
00:55:28.039 --> 00:55:30.599
isolated when I look online and I
see all these people making cool stuff,

794
00:55:31.199 --> 00:55:35.960
and that is not what brings me
joy when I play games. Oh yeah,

795
00:55:36.119 --> 00:55:37.960
no, there's there's stuff people are
making. I saw them. They

796
00:55:38.079 --> 00:55:44.000
made a I think I understand the
basics of how they made it. So

797
00:55:45.000 --> 00:55:49.039
to be clear, I as even
as far as I am, I played

798
00:55:49.079 --> 00:55:52.400
a shrine today that showed me how
to use a ZONEI item that I've had

799
00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:55.119
my inventory most of the game,
just never knew how the fuck to use

800
00:55:55.159 --> 00:56:00.559
it. Like the shrines are the
tutorials for zone items, often Zonie devices,

801
00:56:01.480 --> 00:56:05.920
and depending on what shrines you go
to, you might not know how

802
00:56:05.960 --> 00:56:10.360
to use one of those for much
of the game. Um, but as

803
00:56:10.400 --> 00:56:14.559
I understand, I understand the basics
of what they made. But basically,

804
00:56:14.679 --> 00:56:19.840
these people made an orbital laser to
kill a gliac. But it's basically a

805
00:56:21.320 --> 00:56:23.440
you get a levitating platform the ones
you hit. You might not even have

806
00:56:23.519 --> 00:56:27.800
seen these yet. I won't go
into the gameplay specifics that I guess that

807
00:56:27.840 --> 00:56:30.679
would be spoilery, but it's like
it's one of those things where it's I

808
00:56:30.800 --> 00:56:36.159
can forget it sky laser. I
understand. Yeah, So it's like I

809
00:56:36.480 --> 00:56:38.559
vaguely understand how they made that,
but I'm never gonna put the time into

810
00:56:38.599 --> 00:56:40.760
making something like that. And if
you want to, that's cool, but

811
00:56:40.880 --> 00:56:45.440
like it's that's like Minecraft. Some
people just like what I was thinking,

812
00:56:45.519 --> 00:56:50.639
this israft but I think of it
in the way that like if I see

813
00:56:50.719 --> 00:56:53.199
a Mario sixty four speed run,
like you know, some crazy where they

814
00:56:53.239 --> 00:56:55.719
are doing shit, I didn't even
know it was possible. It's like,

815
00:56:55.840 --> 00:56:59.880
I don't I don't get frustrated that, like, oh I can't play that

816
00:57:00.119 --> 00:57:01.239
way. I think that's just kind
of like the Outliers. It's like,

817
00:57:01.440 --> 00:57:05.000
wow, look at this crazy thing
that someone built, or the way someone

818
00:57:05.079 --> 00:57:08.079
can play this game. It's not
aspiration very different, but I mean,

819
00:57:08.840 --> 00:57:13.719
the game isn't intended for people to
break it and speed run it. Like

820
00:57:14.119 --> 00:57:16.960
that's why that's so elaborate and so
crazy. To watch someone like break the

821
00:57:17.079 --> 00:57:21.480
game and play it time and time
and time again, to be able to

822
00:57:21.599 --> 00:57:25.559
like concoct that that is a totally
different level. This game is encouraging people

823
00:57:25.639 --> 00:57:31.960
to make weird constructions. It wants
you to do something like totally different and

824
00:57:32.119 --> 00:57:37.519
unique. They're hoping that the audience
is going to make something elaborate that they

825
00:57:37.639 --> 00:57:39.039
never even considered. But I wouldn't
think that, Like, you know,

826
00:57:39.079 --> 00:57:42.559
if you see a bunch of clips
on social media and stuff of people doing

827
00:57:42.599 --> 00:57:45.519
like elaborate stuff, I don't think
that's a failure on anyone's part if like

828
00:57:45.559 --> 00:57:47.880
I doubt anyone any one of us
three are building super crazy things, Like

829
00:57:47.920 --> 00:57:52.000
most of the stuff I'm building is
just dumb as hell. And yeah,

830
00:57:52.559 --> 00:57:54.360
I saw there was there was a
one of the towers that I was trying

831
00:57:54.360 --> 00:57:57.760
to go up and activate, and
it was surrounded by a bunch of spikes,

832
00:57:57.800 --> 00:57:59.000
and I was like, all right, I got to figure out a

833
00:57:59.000 --> 00:58:00.960
way to get over these spikes.
That's why I spent like ten fifteen minutes

834
00:58:00.960 --> 00:58:05.320
just chopping down a bunch of trees, getting planks from far away, bringing

835
00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:07.039
them in and I just built the
most fucked up like kind of like ramp

836
00:58:07.159 --> 00:58:10.239
ladder thing. I put it up
above the spikes, went off the top

837
00:58:10.239 --> 00:58:13.440
of like I did it, and
I landed on the other side, and

838
00:58:13.480 --> 00:58:15.760
I realized there was just a giant
ramp I could have walked up and like

839
00:58:15.960 --> 00:58:20.119
I could, it was just right. But the thing is, there was

840
00:58:20.159 --> 00:58:22.079
a ton of enemies and stuff there, and because I did my fucked up

841
00:58:22.199 --> 00:58:25.719
thing, I find them and they
didn't see me, and I just like

842
00:58:25.880 --> 00:58:29.360
walked into the tower and activated,
and I was like, oh fuck.

843
00:58:29.400 --> 00:58:32.360
Even though like my dumbass way was
completely unnecessary and not elegant in any way.

844
00:58:32.760 --> 00:58:36.880
I had that little experiment that was
just that experience that was just mine.

845
00:58:37.000 --> 00:58:38.440
You know, when you were you
you got benefit from it, which

846
00:58:38.519 --> 00:58:44.079
is also really nice. Yeah,
I think like I'm just so low on

847
00:58:44.280 --> 00:58:50.000
the on the totem pole of what's
impressive to me right now. I had

848
00:58:50.119 --> 00:58:53.400
one of those giant metal hooks,
and for whatever reason, I had a

849
00:58:53.480 --> 00:58:57.679
long stick and I was like,
I'm gonna fuse to this hook and it

850
00:58:57.800 --> 00:59:00.480
gives you a pole of a little
hook on the end of it, and

851
00:59:00.519 --> 00:59:02.800
I was like, this is the
craziest thing I've ever seen. And I'm

852
00:59:04.480 --> 00:59:07.800
watching this like when I watched the
videos, I was like, not ten

853
00:59:07.920 --> 00:59:12.360
minutes ago, I was blown away
by a stick with a hook on the

854
00:59:12.559 --> 00:59:16.519
end of it. Yeah, I'm
out of my league. So that's what

855
00:59:16.639 --> 00:59:21.159
I'm curious. What is like the
what is your favorite thing you fused so

856
00:59:21.320 --> 00:59:27.360
far to stick with the hook?
I just I just like I just told

857
00:59:27.400 --> 00:59:29.480
you. I mean, there's a
lot of things where it's just like I

858
00:59:29.559 --> 00:59:30.719
got a weapon and I was like, oh, I wonder if I fused

859
00:59:30.800 --> 00:59:32.920
this sword with a bow and arrow, and it's like, well, now

860
00:59:32.960 --> 00:59:37.039
I just got a bow stuck to
my sword, Like, yeah, that's

861
00:59:37.159 --> 00:59:39.760
nothing at all. It's neat that
you were able to do it. I

862
00:59:39.840 --> 00:59:43.280
do think it's cool that they were
like, sure, we'll let you do

863
00:59:43.400 --> 00:59:47.880
that dumb decision, living skeleton arm
onto another living skeleton arm and have a

864
00:59:47.920 --> 00:59:52.119
super long skeletons fuck up. Been
weird, Like, yeah, I love

865
00:59:52.199 --> 00:59:57.880
it, you know, I I
there's definitely certain combinations that are more entertaining,

866
00:59:57.960 --> 01:00:00.360
like a highly inshrum and a stick. Have you done that yet?

867
01:00:00.639 --> 01:00:02.280
Is that the bouncy stick? Yeah? Yeah, Oh my god. On

868
01:00:02.440 --> 01:00:07.079
the fourth hit when he spins and
hits them, I don't know if I

869
01:00:07.119 --> 01:00:08.559
did a four combo or anything.
Oh if you do a four combo on

870
01:00:08.639 --> 01:00:12.480
the four combo or if you charge
up an attack, he does the critical

871
01:00:12.559 --> 01:00:15.639
thing. It sends the enemy catapulting
into the distance and it makes up boiling.

872
01:00:15.920 --> 01:00:20.360
Oh my god. Yeah, I
just gotta get to the he goes

873
01:00:21.599 --> 01:00:25.159
and then he does the spin like
the bo cobbe just went limp and launched

874
01:00:25.239 --> 01:00:30.480
into the distance. Yeah, that's
really good there. I wouldn't I wouldn't

875
01:00:30.519 --> 01:00:32.800
feel bad about you know what you're
describing, because it's like I don't know

876
01:00:32.840 --> 01:00:37.880
about Mike, but like At no
point in my probably fifteen hours with the

877
01:00:37.920 --> 01:00:40.639
game have I built something and thought
like I'm proud of that that was smart

878
01:00:40.719 --> 01:00:44.599
and good. Like No, it's
like I'm just slapping stuff together and make

879
01:00:44.800 --> 01:00:45.599
to get from A to b,
like to get to the end of the

880
01:00:45.639 --> 01:00:49.400
shrine, or to get over that
bridge or something like that, like and

881
01:00:49.559 --> 01:00:52.480
I think I find that really fun. I wouldn't compare what you're making to

882
01:00:52.599 --> 01:00:57.719
this like incredibly elaborate edge cases.
You're single, you know who I was

883
01:00:58.440 --> 01:01:00.519
I compared. I think I said
Link is like a combination of Rigorn,

884
01:01:00.679 --> 01:01:05.719
Imperative, Furiosa and mcgiver. But
he really is mcgruber. I know one

885
01:01:05.760 --> 01:01:09.440
of those. He's mcgruber. Okay, Yes, I was. I was

886
01:01:09.480 --> 01:01:13.679
gonna write a thing probably got like
this is the rous Celery and Zelda.

887
01:01:14.199 --> 01:01:15.960
There's a Stamboul, but you can't
put it up your ass. You might

888
01:01:16.079 --> 01:01:22.320
use Celary with your ass, fuse
Celery with asshole. I interviewed Asian Numa

889
01:01:22.360 --> 01:01:25.320
and hit Tomorrow Fujibayashi recently, who
made the game, and I was like,

890
01:01:27.360 --> 01:01:30.119
I wish it could have gotten a
point where I was like, why

891
01:01:30.199 --> 01:01:34.159
can't I fuse Celery? Why why
is there's why are there so few asshole

892
01:01:34.239 --> 01:01:38.159
fusions? Yes? What have gone? They were like get out of They

893
01:01:38.280 --> 01:01:43.880
loved when you asked questions, leave
the men's room, or just take a

894
01:01:44.000 --> 01:01:46.599
break. Why are you? How
did you get in here? Um?

895
01:01:47.239 --> 01:01:51.599
There are so many little things that
the things that impressed me about the game

896
01:01:51.639 --> 01:01:53.480
are the things that, like,
I can't believe this was consistent. I'm

897
01:01:53.519 --> 01:01:57.159
never impressing myself with what I'm making. I am impressed by the stuff that

898
01:01:57.280 --> 01:02:00.039
they considered and made all these systems
work together. There was a part where

899
01:02:00.880 --> 01:02:05.039
I was in the mountains, but
I didn't have any like cold resistance gear

900
01:02:05.119 --> 01:02:07.280
or anything. So I was had
before I went in. I had to

901
01:02:07.360 --> 01:02:09.440
make all these meals and cold resistance
stuff and spicy pepper meals and stuff,

902
01:02:09.519 --> 01:02:12.239
and I'm like, okay, I
got one warm, Like I was really

903
01:02:12.320 --> 01:02:15.119
focusing on that. I go into
a shrine and while I was in there,

904
01:02:15.239 --> 01:02:17.559
you know, I fought a few
things. And then when I left

905
01:02:17.599 --> 01:02:22.599
the shrine, I noticed I wasn't
I didn't have any of the cold resistance

906
01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:24.840
anymore. The meal had worn off, but I wasn't cold anymore, And

907
01:02:24.880 --> 01:02:28.440
I was like, wait, why
am I not? And I realized while

908
01:02:28.440 --> 01:02:31.559
I was in the shrine, I
fused a ruby to my sword to make

909
01:02:31.599 --> 01:02:35.440
it so I could kind of like
throw fire, and so the sword it

910
01:02:35.679 --> 01:02:37.800
has flames on and so that's the
thing. I didn't even have it,

911
01:02:37.960 --> 01:02:42.599
like it was equipped on my back, but even if, yeah, the

912
01:02:42.679 --> 01:02:45.679
flame was there and they factored that
in and it made the link warm enough.

913
01:02:45.719 --> 01:02:49.280
I was like, that's fucking crazy. That took me a while to

914
01:02:49.440 --> 01:02:52.119
realize that's what was happening. I
thought like something had broken. I was

915
01:02:52.159 --> 01:02:54.679
like, I should be I mean, I was in Garuda desert. I

916
01:02:54.760 --> 01:03:00.199
was like, I should be like
overheated right now. He should be doing

917
01:03:00.239 --> 01:03:02.719
the swaying thing. But I'm not. My potion, my elixir has worn

918
01:03:02.760 --> 01:03:07.760
off. I'm not wearing the Grudo
Vogue armor yet. I haven't gotten that.

919
01:03:07.400 --> 01:03:12.480
I was like, oh, I
have an opal on the stick behind

920
01:03:12.519 --> 01:03:15.000
me that I was using for water
ship or sorry, a sapphire's using for

921
01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:19.960
ice stuff. Yeah. Yeah,
there was a there was a Boucablin like

922
01:03:20.039 --> 01:03:22.280
early in the game. And I
just feel like there are these little fucking

923
01:03:22.360 --> 01:03:24.480
magical things that happened all the time
that like you might not ever see.

924
01:03:24.559 --> 01:03:28.320
Most people might not ever see.
But the game is just so filled with

925
01:03:28.400 --> 01:03:30.960
possibilities for that, Like it was
just a simple thing. It was a

926
01:03:30.039 --> 01:03:34.360
Boucablin and he had like a rock
hammer. I attacked him with whatever I

927
01:03:34.480 --> 01:03:37.760
had. He drops the rock hammer
and flew back. I pick up the

928
01:03:37.880 --> 01:03:39.800
rock hammer. He stands up and
he doesn't have a weapon to Boucablin,

929
01:03:39.840 --> 01:03:42.440
and I'm just like watching him,
like, oh, I wonder what he's

930
01:03:42.440 --> 01:03:45.960
gonna do. Yeah, he starts
digging in the ground and grabs a rock

931
01:03:45.079 --> 01:03:49.199
and he throws it at me,
and for like while it's in mid air,

932
01:03:49.440 --> 01:03:51.280
I was like, I wonder if
this is gonna And I hit the

933
01:03:51.320 --> 01:03:54.599
button I swaying it and it fucking
knocked the rock into the Boucablin's face and

934
01:03:54.639 --> 01:03:59.639
did damage. Like oh, I
didn't know you could do magic like at

935
01:03:59.679 --> 01:04:01.079
that point. And I would have
cast recall on the rock to send back

936
01:04:01.119 --> 01:04:04.880
at him. I always forget I
have recalled. That's the one. So

937
01:04:05.199 --> 01:04:10.840
this far into the game, I
will say recall is the true like the

938
01:04:11.280 --> 01:04:15.199
really overpowered ability in this game.
Really you can so again, this gets

939
01:04:15.239 --> 01:04:17.159
into gameplay spoilers. I'm not gonna
spoil it all. I will say,

940
01:04:17.719 --> 01:04:20.679
let's circle back next episode and see
if you've done cool shit with recall,

941
01:04:20.760 --> 01:04:25.320
because I think just on a surface
level, you're like, oh, it

942
01:04:25.360 --> 01:04:28.280
just rewinds stuff. You could send
explosive barrels back at moblins who threw it.

943
01:04:28.360 --> 01:04:31.119
But it's like no, no,
no, no. Recall can help

944
01:04:31.159 --> 01:04:34.800
you cheat so many ways in this
game, Like it makes many shrines like

945
01:04:35.719 --> 01:04:39.800
that recall became one of my life. It's ultra hand plus recall. The

946
01:04:39.840 --> 01:04:43.239
way you can combine them became kind
of my Like, I don't know how

947
01:04:43.280 --> 01:04:45.320
to do the shrine. I'm just
gonna fucking cheat and use recall. I

948
01:04:45.400 --> 01:04:48.039
guess you can, right, Because
as long as you can use hand to

949
01:04:48.199 --> 01:04:53.119
move something and then you can use
recall to bring it back back, you

950
01:04:53.199 --> 01:04:58.519
can make it anywhere. Ultra handed
up to allege, go back down to

951
01:04:58.559 --> 01:05:00.360
the ground, ultra handed back up, and then casse recall on it.

952
01:05:00.599 --> 01:05:05.079
Get on the platform. It's an
elevator, but also the UM, the

953
01:05:05.199 --> 01:05:11.480
gliders, the wing gliders UM you
get a zone item, you get several

954
01:05:11.599 --> 01:05:14.639
zone items later that let you take
off from any surface. However, early

955
01:05:14.719 --> 01:05:17.920
on in the Skylands in there totorializing
it, it's on those rails it needs

956
01:05:17.960 --> 01:05:23.480
like a runway. Early on,
people are using recall. Similarly, they're

957
01:05:23.760 --> 01:05:27.079
used their ultra handing it, sending
it like ten feet out and then pulling

958
01:05:27.119 --> 01:05:30.840
it back and then and then it
launches it. Then by the time you're

959
01:05:30.880 --> 01:05:33.400
on it, you're flying because the
fans you've turned the fans on or you

960
01:05:33.440 --> 01:05:38.920
have the steering stick. Um.
It took me a while to train myself

961
01:05:38.960 --> 01:05:41.320
to use a send because like,
there were so many times I would just

962
01:05:41.360 --> 01:05:43.599
be in a place or like a
puzzle where it's like how am I going

963
01:05:43.639 --> 01:05:45.039
to get into this room? And
I'm like looking all around it, like

964
01:05:45.079 --> 01:05:47.559
I can't figure out how a good
end it, and there's like fucking hang

965
01:05:47.639 --> 01:05:50.360
on a second, Oh okay,
I go under it and then up and

966
01:05:50.639 --> 01:05:56.920
oh fucking in a cave. Yeah, And you're like so in interviewing the

967
01:05:56.960 --> 01:06:00.239
two devs, it turns out ascend
was a ridge only a debug dev cheat

968
01:06:00.280 --> 01:06:04.760
because they were all sick of having
to exit caves normally. So then they

969
01:06:04.800 --> 01:06:08.360
were using that to ascend through mountains
and they're like, we should just give

970
01:06:08.400 --> 01:06:11.840
the players this ability, and then
they did. How crazy is if they're

971
01:06:11.840 --> 01:06:15.280
like they have to design the like
they haven't changed that much. That is

972
01:06:15.320 --> 01:06:18.960
fucking incredible. But like imagine,
like I like cheating and I was getting

973
01:06:18.960 --> 01:06:23.000
annoyed at the backtrack through caves,
and then Fujibayashi, the director, was

974
01:06:23.079 --> 01:06:26.119
like, oh, I've been using
this cheat when I've been playtesting it myself

975
01:06:26.119 --> 01:06:28.679
in my office. Let's hear use
this. And then I knew was like,

976
01:06:29.679 --> 01:06:31.079
why don't we just let players do
this? He's like, we'll have

977
01:06:31.199 --> 01:06:33.880
to change quite a lot. He's
like, yeah, let's do it.

978
01:06:34.440 --> 01:06:40.239
But I think that's really cool that
they essentially realized that they were doing something

979
01:06:40.280 --> 01:06:43.840
and it was fun and that that
trumped a lot of other things. Oh

980
01:06:43.880 --> 01:06:48.760
yeah, they pick fun. And
that's the consistent thing with Nintendo games is

981
01:06:48.880 --> 01:06:54.440
they're they're not worried about breaking it. They're not worried about whether or not

982
01:06:55.079 --> 01:06:59.760
you were skirting the rules or whether
it's done it intentionally. They asked them

983
01:07:00.000 --> 01:07:01.719
elves, was it fun? And
then it kind of lead with that.

984
01:07:02.079 --> 01:07:04.119
But then but then they also added
They're like, well, what if you

985
01:07:04.199 --> 01:07:08.159
come up in the middle of a
group of enemies or underwater, and that's

986
01:07:08.199 --> 01:07:12.079
like, well, give them the
option to like peek out like Danny DeVito

987
01:07:12.320 --> 01:07:15.000
naked out of the leather couch and
sunny and then down. It took me

988
01:07:15.119 --> 01:07:23.320
like sixty hours to realize I could
reverse it mid swim. I didn't have

989
01:07:23.400 --> 01:07:25.400
to wait. Yeah, you could
just press be at any point and he'll

990
01:07:25.400 --> 01:07:28.480
go. He'll be swimming and then
he'll do the spin downward. There's not

991
01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:31.480
many times you need that. It's
just like there's a couple of times where

992
01:07:32.440 --> 01:07:35.400
I was trying to get into a
chamber like above me, but not go

993
01:07:35.559 --> 01:07:39.559
all the way to the surface.
There's a certain part where you're under like

994
01:07:40.400 --> 01:07:44.239
X whatever, y Z, and
I was like, oh, he's swimming

995
01:07:44.239 --> 01:07:47.920
way too long. That's definitely like
a disguised loading screen, because um,

996
01:07:48.559 --> 01:07:51.719
sometimes you go through a really thin
surface and it won't go into like the

997
01:07:51.960 --> 01:07:57.360
ethereal swimming realm, or other times
it'll take a while. But there's a

998
01:07:57.400 --> 01:07:59.559
few times Whe'm like, okay,
this should be a thin surface if I'm

999
01:07:59.599 --> 01:08:00.760
getting to where I want to be, and then he'll be swimming for a

1000
01:08:00.760 --> 01:08:02.639
while, I'm like nope, I
missed, and then go back down.

1001
01:08:03.280 --> 01:08:09.440
Um yeah, ascend took a long
time to let you wrap my head around

1002
01:08:09.719 --> 01:08:14.719
how crazy is it that this game
lets you break it in fun ways and

1003
01:08:14.840 --> 01:08:16.880
also have so many like physics and
things like that involved, but it never

1004
01:08:17.079 --> 01:08:19.359
feels like I think about a lot
of other games that have a bunch of

1005
01:08:19.439 --> 01:08:23.520
like physics stuff, there's always the
point where a body raged, all's out,

1006
01:08:23.560 --> 01:08:26.800
all fucking weird, or something gets
stuck in the geometry or something just

1007
01:08:27.000 --> 01:08:30.359
breaks up. I haven't seen that. That Nintendo polish is just like they

1008
01:08:30.439 --> 01:08:34.720
are letting you do so much and
it always seems like it's just doing what

1009
01:08:34.800 --> 01:08:39.079
it's supposed to do. Yeah,
the worst thing I saw is frame drops,

1010
01:08:39.159 --> 01:08:41.159
but like, sure, but that's
a perform that's the hardware thing.

1011
01:08:41.239 --> 01:08:46.840
That's well, so that's apparently it's
such a simple piece of hardware, it's

1012
01:08:46.960 --> 01:08:53.680
ridiculous. The simplest city of the
of the Switch Now apparently also this game

1013
01:08:54.640 --> 01:08:58.840
they've been using this is the engine
since Twilight Princess. They've been using this

1014
01:09:00.079 --> 01:09:02.119
no Ship, which is you know, there was a guy who's like really

1015
01:09:02.159 --> 01:09:08.640
into graphics that was like, I
hate this. I can't even have shadows

1016
01:09:08.720 --> 01:09:11.319
on the leaves. You guys are
killing me. And they were like,

1017
01:09:11.560 --> 01:09:14.520
I don't know, like we are
doing all this other cool stuff, you

1018
01:09:14.600 --> 01:09:17.359
know with water and you know gravity, and he was like, but I

1019
01:09:17.520 --> 01:09:23.319
can't. I can't have any type
of graphics in the rocks and they were

1020
01:09:23.359 --> 01:09:27.199
like, yeah, well you know
these. Yeah, it's just like no

1021
01:09:27.479 --> 01:09:30.560
graphic value. I mean I'll take
that right off any day of the week

1022
01:09:30.600 --> 01:09:32.159
though. Yeah. Yeah. But
speaking of that, it's like the little

1023
01:09:32.239 --> 01:09:36.720
things they do. It's funny that
Resival four remake during the demo period and

1024
01:09:36.920 --> 01:09:42.920
Resonal before you make fucking kicks ass. But there was that like heated fervor

1025
01:09:43.039 --> 01:09:45.720
from people. They're like, it's
so dumb that they painted the interactable breakable

1026
01:09:45.760 --> 01:09:50.399
objects yellow so you would know.
Um. We talked about that and Resident

1027
01:09:50.479 --> 01:09:56.720
Evil about how everything that is interactable
has yellow paint, which like the tomb

1028
01:09:56.800 --> 01:10:00.279
Raider method, you know, the
Assassin's creed, the yellow paint. It's

1029
01:10:00.279 --> 01:10:03.319
always like, we've helped you,
dumb dumbs. So it's funny now to

1030
01:10:03.359 --> 01:10:06.720
see Tears of the Kingdom. They
were talking on the Nintendo Dev blog about

1031
01:10:06.800 --> 01:10:12.720
the specific tiny things they do to
communicate that, and it's like if you

1032
01:10:12.800 --> 01:10:16.399
come up to a pile of Hudson's
wood, like those piles of wagon stuff,

1033
01:10:16.399 --> 01:10:18.760
it's like, if we don't if
we want players to know they can

1034
01:10:18.800 --> 01:10:21.199
interact with this one. We just
they just have those tarps over them,

1035
01:10:21.520 --> 01:10:26.119
and it still makes sense. It's
like pots. If you want to know

1036
01:10:26.199 --> 01:10:30.039
whether you can break a pot,
pots without the lid on it will break.

1037
01:10:30.159 --> 01:10:35.039
Pots with lids on them won't.
And it's like I never noticed that,

1038
01:10:35.159 --> 01:10:38.399
and then I started looking around for
pots with lids and I was like,

1039
01:10:38.439 --> 01:10:40.840
oh, weird. I never have
even tried to break those. For

1040
01:10:40.920 --> 01:10:44.439
some reason, they just don't look
hollow, and they like they found little

1041
01:10:44.439 --> 01:10:47.239
ways to communicate that stuff without like
splashing pain across it, which is just

1042
01:10:48.319 --> 01:10:54.439
this team. It's a bit more
immersion, diegetic or whatever you want.

1043
01:10:54.560 --> 01:10:58.199
Yeah, yeah, it allows you
to feel the escapism a little bit more.

1044
01:10:58.239 --> 01:11:02.600
And I know it is an easy
target to say, like so lame

1045
01:11:02.720 --> 01:11:08.880
to just put like yellow paint on
everything. We understand why they're doing it,

1046
01:11:09.079 --> 01:11:12.840
because it's extremely frustrating to try and
break everything in the room. Because

1047
01:11:12.880 --> 01:11:16.079
you want stuff, We get it. There should be a way to do

1048
01:11:16.199 --> 01:11:24.000
it just smoother that isn't yellow paint. And I actually genuinely think as like

1049
01:11:24.079 --> 01:11:27.520
an evolution, we're getting out of
the yellow paint era. We're getting to

1050
01:11:27.560 --> 01:11:30.319
a point where people don't want that
anymore. You have to find more organic

1051
01:11:30.439 --> 01:11:34.199
ways to tell me that I can
hit something or I can climb there that

1052
01:11:34.479 --> 01:11:39.800
isn't splashed paint. We're getting to
that point. Yeah, And it's like,

1053
01:11:42.319 --> 01:11:45.000
so, Mary, are you still? Are you off the sky islands

1054
01:11:45.039 --> 01:11:50.560
yet I dived. Another one of
the things that really affected my ego is

1055
01:11:50.600 --> 01:11:57.039
how often I was unable to land
in water. And I have died a

1056
01:11:57.159 --> 01:12:00.800
lot, And I was curious if
that's normal because it's like flat, like

1057
01:12:00.880 --> 01:12:04.520
what I was curious if you don't
like found open the glider, he like

1058
01:12:04.600 --> 01:12:08.640
rag dolls right when he hits the
ground, he rag dolls. So have

1059
01:12:08.760 --> 01:12:11.920
you ever done that with tomb Rader? If you ever see tomb Rader who

1060
01:12:12.000 --> 01:12:15.239
dives off of cliffs, if you
tive onto land, she's kind of like

1061
01:12:15.880 --> 01:12:19.640
just kind of like immediately crunches and
it's over. That's what he does,

1062
01:12:19.760 --> 01:12:24.840
and it's really upsetting. You get
I mean, you get the paraglider if

1063
01:12:24.840 --> 01:12:30.479
you follow the main quest a bit
farther. Yeah, yeah, and I

1064
01:12:30.720 --> 01:12:34.960
have it, But it's also really
easy to like dive and miss no,

1065
01:12:35.039 --> 01:12:42.880
no, no, you get the
water. I'm constantly just trying to hit

1066
01:12:43.039 --> 01:12:47.399
that water right right in the money
and I'm just shy. Happened like ten

1067
01:12:47.560 --> 01:12:51.720
times he was falling head first onto
rocks. Oh, I was so stressful,

1068
01:12:53.000 --> 01:12:55.880
and I was trying to like get
to an island there was a secret

1069
01:12:56.479 --> 01:12:59.119
and I was trying to get to
this secret island and I kept missing.

1070
01:13:00.279 --> 01:13:03.119
Very frustrating. But I think a
lot of that is just like user,

1071
01:13:03.520 --> 01:13:06.880
I'm learning and I'm getting frustrated with
myself. I don't think it's like a

1072
01:13:06.960 --> 01:13:14.840
game issue, just stressful to watch
your main character crunch himself, Like yeah,

1073
01:13:15.920 --> 01:13:18.600
I don't want to see it.
There's a lot of peril in that

1074
01:13:18.720 --> 01:13:21.640
game where it's like, oh,
I need to cross this like lava field

1075
01:13:21.720 --> 01:13:24.960
or whatever. It's like, all
right, I got two wheels and this

1076
01:13:25.159 --> 01:13:29.239
like this l block from Tetris or
whatever. I guess I'll just see if

1077
01:13:29.279 --> 01:13:35.640
this works. And it's like rotating
around, you're like fuck yeah, the

1078
01:13:35.880 --> 01:13:42.439
um some of them, especially when
you go on to the depths, things

1079
01:13:42.520 --> 01:13:46.199
get slightly dangerous down there, but
the Depths so fucking they took That's like

1080
01:13:46.359 --> 01:13:49.199
they took the dark world of Link
to the Past and made it like an

1081
01:13:49.279 --> 01:13:54.079
integral like not that to that extent, but it's like that kernel of an

1082
01:13:54.119 --> 01:13:57.159
idea. It's like what if there
was this like dark world aspect to it?

1083
01:13:57.279 --> 01:14:00.640
But then it's like if we if
we just did this three layer open

1084
01:14:00.680 --> 01:14:03.800
world. It's not just one open
world, it's like three and the way

1085
01:14:03.840 --> 01:14:06.319
they kind of interacted to each other
where it's like, Okay, there's this

1086
01:14:06.479 --> 01:14:10.079
route here, and then oh,
I've noticed a pattern of like directly above

1087
01:14:10.079 --> 01:14:12.399
the root, there's something in the
main and the name of the root is

1088
01:14:12.439 --> 01:14:15.319
just the shrine name backwards. Oh
I didn't realize that, I ask,

1089
01:14:15.039 --> 01:14:21.079
But also like the way that is, and I talked about this like quite

1090
01:14:21.119 --> 01:14:27.239
a bit in my review, but
it's like they're like, not any developer

1091
01:14:27.319 --> 01:14:31.119
could have done that three layer open
world. Good developers could probably find a

1092
01:14:31.159 --> 01:14:35.239
way to make that happen. What
sets this team even further apart is the

1093
01:14:35.319 --> 01:14:42.800
way that they use the game's economy
and systems to facilitate, like encourage you

1094
01:14:42.880 --> 01:14:45.800
to go between the layers. So
it's like to light up the underground because

1095
01:14:45.840 --> 01:14:48.800
it's all pitch black, well maybe
not pitch black in all areas until if

1096
01:14:48.800 --> 01:14:51.479
you're not near a grass or you
need bright bloom seeds. There are other

1097
01:14:51.560 --> 01:14:57.279
things. You can eat stuff that
makes you glow I you find other items

1098
01:14:57.399 --> 01:15:02.479
later in the game that makes early
stuff defunct. But bright bloom seeds to

1099
01:15:02.560 --> 01:15:08.399
light up the darkness only grow on
the surface in caves mainly, so you

1100
01:15:08.479 --> 01:15:13.079
got to go to the surface to
get bright bloom seeds to go investigate the

1101
01:15:13.159 --> 01:15:16.600
darkness. However, in the sky
islands, you might find a treasure map

1102
01:15:17.000 --> 01:15:19.760
and then the X that marks a
spot is in the depths. So it's

1103
01:15:19.800 --> 01:15:25.640
like they're doing so many little things
to cleverly get you to like make sure

1104
01:15:25.680 --> 01:15:29.239
that those layers depend on one another
and are not just like these three separate

1105
01:15:29.359 --> 01:15:33.199
things they feel like one thing.
It's like you fucking skydive off an island

1106
01:15:33.199 --> 01:15:36.680
to high role, and then you
skydive again, like just as far into

1107
01:15:36.760 --> 01:15:40.800
the ground. It's awesome. It
gives you a reason too, like none

1108
01:15:40.800 --> 01:15:44.560
of it feels superfluous or like something
you should ignore. Like every time I've

1109
01:15:44.600 --> 01:15:46.800
gotten a treasure map and it's marked
a place in the depths, every time

1110
01:15:46.840 --> 01:15:49.560
I've gotten something, I've been like, oh, okay, that's actually really

1111
01:15:49.640 --> 01:15:53.920
useful, because like if I have
one complaint so far about it. And

1112
01:15:54.239 --> 01:15:58.399
this also tracked with the breadth of
wild is that like I like getting every

1113
01:15:58.439 --> 01:16:00.640
treasure test. You know, if
I see a treasure chest, I want

1114
01:16:00.680 --> 01:16:02.000
to get it, And like that
goes for every single shrine. I don't

1115
01:16:02.039 --> 01:16:04.760
go to the accident until I have
the bonus one, and so like I'll

1116
01:16:04.800 --> 01:16:09.920
spend sometimes like an especially tricky physics
one or something, ten minutes fifteen minutes

1117
01:16:10.199 --> 01:16:13.520
just trying to get the physics right
to knock this ball into this target or

1118
01:16:13.560 --> 01:16:15.359
whatever. And then it's like,
okay, great, treasure chest it's an

1119
01:16:15.399 --> 01:16:17.840
elixir, and it's like, okay, well, great, I got a

1120
01:16:17.880 --> 01:16:20.840
thing that'll make me faster for two
minutes. You know. It's like I

1121
01:16:20.960 --> 01:16:25.159
know that the joy is in the
actual doing, but it's like it is

1122
01:16:25.239 --> 01:16:27.840
kind of a like fart at the
end of it. Not the destination,

1123
01:16:28.479 --> 01:16:30.760
it's no, but it's like,
you know, you do get kind of

1124
01:16:30.800 --> 01:16:35.000
trained playing every fucking Zelda. It's
like the friends you met along low Agg.

1125
01:16:35.319 --> 01:16:39.199
You know, I'm not the journey
is very good, but I like

1126
01:16:39.560 --> 01:16:43.359
getting something at the end of but
I want a sixth sword Mary. It's

1127
01:16:43.399 --> 01:16:48.760
like, you know, yeah,
it was like in oh Paul, I've

1128
01:16:48.800 --> 01:16:56.960
only seen that word in Zelza say
it again, open, Oh Paul,

1129
01:16:57.439 --> 01:17:02.079
Oh Paul, what is it like
a jewelry thing? It's a gem?

1130
01:17:02.279 --> 01:17:09.079
Yeah, okay, up, it's
like a like emerald ruby opal. Yeah,

1131
01:17:09.119 --> 01:17:14.119
there's no emeralds in like that's your
trawler. Just for the record,

1132
01:17:15.000 --> 01:17:17.359
I don't say trawler. I don't
run into in my day to day life.

1133
01:17:17.399 --> 01:17:21.399
I don't have a reason to say
it. I don't run into giraffes

1134
01:17:21.439 --> 01:17:25.359
in my day to day life.
I don't call it. So I bought

1135
01:17:25.399 --> 01:17:30.039
her a gorgeous ring covered in opals. Look, honey, what do you

1136
01:17:30.119 --> 01:17:34.800
call them? Opals? Op opals? I found an opal. Okay,

1137
01:17:35.000 --> 01:17:39.000
there you go. That's exactly how
I said it, with that intonation everything.

1138
01:17:39.119 --> 01:17:43.279
Yeah, it would be like I'm
gonna eat this nice red juicy apal

1139
01:17:46.439 --> 01:17:55.039
palace, a pal juice spider roast
me up a new new having appal juice,

1140
01:17:55.079 --> 01:17:59.920
and the little lady. We're having
our range and then we've been up.

1141
01:17:59.920 --> 01:18:06.479
The thing about Tears of the Kingdom
that I also really like with the

1142
01:18:06.560 --> 01:18:12.439
Depths is that it does really feel
like when you're going into some late game

1143
01:18:12.479 --> 01:18:17.079
areas down there. They do a
great job of like almost like it reminds

1144
01:18:17.119 --> 01:18:19.560
me of how we talked about Resumel
seven. When you know you need to

1145
01:18:19.560 --> 01:18:24.840
go into the basement at that one
part, it's almost like the revelation that

1146
01:18:24.880 --> 01:18:28.000
you need to go down there is
scarier than going down there itself. In

1147
01:18:28.079 --> 01:18:30.119
a similar way, the depths when
there's some late game areas, like they

1148
01:18:30.199 --> 01:18:34.159
really make it feel like you have
to prepare to go down there, Like

1149
01:18:35.159 --> 01:18:39.680
it's like I need this supply,
I need that I need. It's like

1150
01:18:39.760 --> 01:18:42.920
not even like necessarily knowing there's a
lionel down there's something. It's like,

1151
01:18:43.439 --> 01:18:46.079
it does feel like an excursion to
go down there. It's not usually a

1152
01:18:46.119 --> 01:18:50.720
place you just like you wander into
willy nilly. Yeah, And it's a

1153
01:18:50.800 --> 01:18:55.920
gradual realization of just how in depth
it is where it's like the first time

1154
01:18:55.960 --> 01:18:57.920
you see the chasm, it's like, oh, I wonder what's in here.

1155
01:18:58.039 --> 01:18:59.880
It's like a fuck, I'm falling
for a while. Is is normal?

1156
01:19:00.079 --> 01:19:03.279
The horns? Yeah? Yeah,
yeah, And you're looking at it

1157
01:19:03.319 --> 01:19:05.720
like what the fuck is this?
Like this like a cave And the first

1158
01:19:05.760 --> 01:19:10.239
time you get the seed or the
root and it just lights that up and

1159
01:19:10.279 --> 01:19:13.159
it's like another section in your map. It's like, hang on the ceiling

1160
01:19:13.800 --> 01:19:17.359
map like ceiling. Yeah, it's
like unsettling, there's that much space down

1161
01:19:17.399 --> 01:19:19.920
there. I'm talking to Bank about
it, and she mentioned that, like

1162
01:19:20.039 --> 01:19:23.640
that is almost like a new idea
of like since Elden Ring of like,

1163
01:19:24.039 --> 01:19:26.560
wait, is there a map below
the map? That's fucking crazy And this

1164
01:19:26.680 --> 01:19:30.920
makes elden Rings like elden Rings map
is like secluded areas compared to this is

1165
01:19:30.960 --> 01:19:35.279
just like another high rule, but
it's all a lot of stuff is mirrored.

1166
01:19:35.359 --> 01:19:40.159
So it's like again, it's like
the dark world idea, but put

1167
01:19:40.279 --> 01:19:44.439
into an open world organically. And
then also there's a sky and also you

1168
01:19:44.560 --> 01:19:46.640
can just like build what everywhere like
it. This is a fucking craze,

1169
01:19:46.680 --> 01:19:49.680
like the idea of like open world
game. This is like we need a

1170
01:19:49.720 --> 01:19:51.880
new term for this. Yeah,
yeah, it's open world, but it's

1171
01:19:51.880 --> 01:19:57.199
just like the sheer possibilities and the
breadth of the open world is just unparalleled.

1172
01:19:57.720 --> 01:20:04.119
Yeah, and it's like that I'm
not tired of playing it at all

1173
01:20:04.359 --> 01:20:09.720
yet I've seen so little the maps
still, or I've seen most I've seen

1174
01:20:09.840 --> 01:20:13.439
most of the maps general. How
many hours? Sorry, like a hundred

1175
01:20:13.479 --> 01:20:15.720
and ten? I mean, can
I ask you then a question, which

1176
01:20:15.840 --> 01:20:20.960
is like, are you avoiding finishing
the game? Which is what I did

1177
01:20:21.119 --> 01:20:29.600
when we for review. I finished
the story pretty sixty five seventy hours.

1178
01:20:29.640 --> 01:20:31.600
It took me, I think sixty
five seventy hours to finish the game.

1179
01:20:32.039 --> 01:20:34.640
Yeah, I'm being hyperbolic when I
say I haven't seen most of the map.

1180
01:20:34.720 --> 01:20:38.600
It's like I've seen, generally speaking, most of it. The depths

1181
01:20:38.680 --> 01:20:42.520
I have not. I've only I've
only lit up like a third of the

1182
01:20:42.600 --> 01:20:45.720
depths. Probably there are some big
areas you go to and find some really

1183
01:20:45.760 --> 01:20:49.279
cool shit down there. But in
terms of like, and this is just

1184
01:20:49.359 --> 01:20:55.319
like a result of playing it for
review, I wasn't indulging every single distraction

1185
01:20:55.760 --> 01:20:58.640
at a certain point, and I'm
like, I see that trying over there

1186
01:20:59.159 --> 01:21:02.439
like three DS away. I'll do
it later. But like the Sky I

1187
01:21:02.600 --> 01:21:06.560
haven't. I've spent so little time
in the Sky Islands compared to what I

1188
01:21:06.640 --> 01:21:10.399
thought I would be based on the
marketing, because it's like, oh no,

1189
01:21:10.439 --> 01:21:13.399
I've spent more time in the depths, but the Sky Islands you get

1190
01:21:13.439 --> 01:21:16.520
some cool stuff up there. But
I gotta see you mentioning playing it for

1191
01:21:16.560 --> 01:21:19.960
review and not like you know,
going on every whim every distraction, like

1192
01:21:20.119 --> 01:21:24.359
it makes me think about This is
different than you know, Breadth of Wild,

1193
01:21:24.439 --> 01:21:26.920
which I got early, and I
was doing those sixteen hour days trying

1194
01:21:26.960 --> 01:21:30.000
to make sure I did as much
as possible before the review and Bargo versus

1195
01:21:30.079 --> 01:21:32.680
this, which I got on release
day, you know, And I think

1196
01:21:32.720 --> 01:21:36.399
I am for all the complaining I
do about being in Nintendo jail as Giant

1197
01:21:36.399 --> 01:21:41.600
Bomb is, actually think I'm liking
playing it more this way because there's no

1198
01:21:42.079 --> 01:21:45.640
pressure, there's no time limit.
I am playing it when I have time,

1199
01:21:45.800 --> 01:21:48.119
and I am indulging every distraction.
Like every time I sit down to

1200
01:21:48.199 --> 01:21:51.439
play, I'm just like, okay, um, looks like when I saved

1201
01:21:51.560 --> 01:21:54.960
last time, I was facing this
way, Let's go that way. Oh,

1202
01:21:54.960 --> 01:21:56.960
okay, looks like I'm going towards
that yellow dot. Oh. But

1203
01:21:57.239 --> 01:21:59.800
this is here, This is here, and I'm really just taking my time

1204
01:21:59.840 --> 01:22:02.279
with it, and I feel like
that's the more natural way to play.

1205
01:22:02.279 --> 01:22:05.319
I think that's more indicative of how
most people play these games, and I

1206
01:22:05.479 --> 01:22:10.119
have found it more rewarding than just
like this is my entire week. As

1207
01:22:10.159 --> 01:22:13.560
I'm playing this all day every day, this feels better and I think it's

1208
01:22:13.600 --> 01:22:15.920
going to stretch it out for like
I could see myself playing this for months,

1209
01:22:15.039 --> 01:22:18.039
you know. Yeah, And there
were definitely stretches where I was playing

1210
01:22:18.239 --> 01:22:21.159
just like I normally would like kind
of have to for a review just so

1211
01:22:21.279 --> 01:22:27.119
you know what the gameplay flow feels
like. But yeah, I definitely finished

1212
01:22:27.159 --> 01:22:29.840
the story earlier than I probably would
have if I wasn't reviewing it. But

1213
01:22:30.079 --> 01:22:38.279
there's just a lot that I still
want to do, like not just like,

1214
01:22:38.359 --> 01:22:40.359
oh, I want to keep exploring
and find stuff, dudes, Like,

1215
01:22:40.399 --> 01:22:43.199
I have ten things I know I
want to do, and I'm sure

1216
01:22:43.239 --> 01:22:48.840
I'll get distracted at some point many
times. Yeah, man, I like

1217
01:22:48.920 --> 01:22:53.199
that game a bit. I'm excited
to dive into a little bit more.

1218
01:22:53.199 --> 01:22:59.199
I've found that it's my evening Rustum's
game because the switch is so convenient,

1219
01:22:59.399 --> 01:23:01.840
it's really able to just be my
nightstand. I can play it for a

1220
01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:05.039
couple of hours, like right as
I get ready for bed. It's like

1221
01:23:05.159 --> 01:23:10.520
this nice thing I can enjoy,
like a book, you know, as

1222
01:23:10.600 --> 01:23:15.760
you go to sleep at night.
It's such a casual, relaxing experience,

1223
01:23:15.840 --> 01:23:17.359
and there's always something that you can
say, hey, I'll get to hear

1224
01:23:17.479 --> 01:23:20.199
and then I'll call it for the
night. There's a million of those.

1225
01:23:20.359 --> 01:23:24.399
There's always like nice achievable things.
It's like a book with short chapter so

1226
01:23:24.479 --> 01:23:27.600
it makes you feel really smart when
you read it well, and it's it's

1227
01:23:27.640 --> 01:23:30.640
like I've been playing at Night a
lot too, and like a lot of

1228
01:23:30.720 --> 01:23:31.600
my favorite games, it just that
thing where it's like, oh, I

1229
01:23:31.640 --> 01:23:35.000
started playing at ten, I've been
playing for a while. What time is

1230
01:23:35.039 --> 01:23:38.560
It's probably like eleven thirty and I
look down and it's like one forty and

1231
01:23:38.600 --> 01:23:41.960
I'm like, what the fuck?
Like that to me is such an indicator

1232
01:23:41.960 --> 01:23:45.039
that're like, Okay, I am
lost in this world in the best way.

1233
01:23:45.399 --> 01:23:47.119
Yeah. Like that so rarely happens, and it's I think it's a

1234
01:23:47.199 --> 01:23:51.840
very special thing when it does.
Yeah, And it's it's funny like how

1235
01:23:51.920 --> 01:23:57.600
many new layers start to unfold as
you're playing it and getting farther in,

1236
01:23:57.720 --> 01:24:01.359
whether it's like doing a big story
be or just like again now, I'm

1237
01:24:01.399 --> 01:24:05.239
just absolutely in love with Recall and
I can't believe there's so many situations where

1238
01:24:05.239 --> 01:24:11.920
I should have been using it that
like I'm not that that is the stuff.

1239
01:24:12.720 --> 01:24:15.319
I don't usually mind spoilers, but
like that's the stuff I don't even

1240
01:24:15.399 --> 01:24:19.319
want to tell you about, because
that's the stuff you stumbling like, oh

1241
01:24:19.439 --> 01:24:25.600
my god. And they do so
many little things in this game. It

1242
01:24:25.720 --> 01:24:29.520
does such a good job of making
it feel like they're not watching, like

1243
01:24:29.640 --> 01:24:32.439
you're getting away with something, you're
cheating. But then there's these little reminders

1244
01:24:32.479 --> 01:24:35.279
that they're like, now we're really
good at this. Like you do a

1245
01:24:35.399 --> 01:24:42.439
shrine that teaches you how to use
recall to ride something back up to elevate

1246
01:24:42.479 --> 01:24:46.479
yourself, and then as you emerge
from the shrine you complete it, there's

1247
01:24:46.479 --> 01:24:49.399
the stone archway in front of you
that a chunk breaks off of and falls

1248
01:24:49.439 --> 01:24:53.119
down. It's like, oh,
now they're trying to teach you further.

1249
01:24:53.239 --> 01:24:56.479
It's like, what you just learned
the shrine. You can get up to

1250
01:24:56.600 --> 01:24:59.720
Skyland's by casting recall on one of
these rocks, or get up to that

1251
01:25:00.079 --> 01:25:03.159
like something breaks off and falls Consider
that an elevate. You got to think

1252
01:25:03.239 --> 01:25:06.640
in reverse, Like the way this
game is kind of making you change how

1253
01:25:06.680 --> 01:25:13.479
you think about space and physics is
it's incredible. And also like just like

1254
01:25:13.680 --> 01:25:16.119
one other thing before I forget,
it's Breath of the Wild is very much

1255
01:25:16.119 --> 01:25:20.359
if I was in the Hebrew region
and I came across a big canyon where

1256
01:25:20.359 --> 01:25:24.560
I saw interesting stuff going on down
there. Maybe it was campfires with bo

1257
01:25:24.680 --> 01:25:28.079
cobblins or a couple NPCs I wanted
to talk to, or I could see

1258
01:25:28.199 --> 01:25:31.880
like a coroc thing from a distance, like whereas Breath of the Wild I

1259
01:25:31.960 --> 01:25:35.079
would have been like, I really
don't want to go down there yet.

1260
01:25:35.079 --> 01:25:39.239
I don't have the stamina or the
clothes to climb back up out. Now

1261
01:25:39.359 --> 01:25:41.680
It's like, Oh, I see
some outcrops. I'll use a send on

1262
01:25:41.720 --> 01:25:43.880
those, so fuck yeah, let's
get in there. Let's go dive down.

1263
01:25:43.960 --> 01:25:47.119
It's like we like, verticality is
one of those things we talk about

1264
01:25:47.119 --> 01:25:50.479
all the time in game design,
and I think it gets like misused this

1265
01:25:50.680 --> 01:25:55.039
game. They like really were like, how do we make verticality like an

1266
01:25:55.119 --> 01:25:57.720
integral part of this Game's like,
Oh, we'll do three open worlds on

1267
01:25:57.800 --> 01:26:00.760
top of one another, and also
we'll have abilities, like we'll have ways

1268
01:26:00.840 --> 01:26:05.239
to plummet from one to the other
and then also like get quickly from one

1269
01:26:05.279 --> 01:26:09.720
to another. What if these towers
just like catapult you into the sky so

1270
01:26:09.880 --> 01:26:14.880
you can float around. Well,
It's crazy how they guide you without guiding

1271
01:26:14.920 --> 01:26:16.680
you, Like I never feel like
it's telling me like, hey, you

1272
01:26:16.760 --> 01:26:20.359
need to do this, then do
this, Like I have this fear sometimes

1273
01:26:20.439 --> 01:26:25.159
that like, oh I'm going to
not like Okay, for instance, these

1274
01:26:25.760 --> 01:26:29.680
frogs that I've been killing drop these
little snowflake things and I have no idea

1275
01:26:29.720 --> 01:26:32.680
where the gems. Yeah, I've
been playing for like fifteen twenty hours.

1276
01:26:32.840 --> 01:26:35.479
I have no idea what they do. And I always have this fear that

1277
01:26:35.640 --> 01:26:39.680
like, oh crap, like what
if that is an integral thing that's really

1278
01:26:39.720 --> 01:26:42.319
gonna help my enjoyment of the game, or something I really need for stuff

1279
01:26:42.520 --> 01:26:46.000
and I'm not finding it. But
then I remember, like I've never actually

1280
01:26:46.079 --> 01:26:50.279
like all the things you actually need, like the paraglider. It's not like

1281
01:26:50.640 --> 01:26:55.399
Bret the Wild where you can't leave
the Great Plateau without the paraglider. You

1282
01:26:55.600 --> 01:26:59.000
could miss the paraglider. But everyone
I've talked to this playing this game,

1283
01:26:59.199 --> 01:27:02.000
no one did. And it's like
it is guiding you in certain places like

1284
01:27:02.079 --> 01:27:04.279
Okay, go to this you know, look out or whatever and talk to

1285
01:27:04.359 --> 01:27:09.960
this character, and it is just
directing you without explicitly directing you all the

1286
01:27:10.039 --> 01:27:12.199
time. You know what I mean, yeah, yeah, because you don't

1287
01:27:12.239 --> 01:27:15.920
know that doing Paro's Quest is going
to get you the paraglider and unlock the

1288
01:27:15.000 --> 01:27:18.359
method for doing sky view towers,
right, But I haven't. I haven't

1289
01:27:18.399 --> 01:27:20.720
met or talked to a single person
that said like, oh, I've been

1290
01:27:20.760 --> 01:27:24.039
playing ten hours, I don't have
the paraglider, like everyone gets it,

1291
01:27:24.399 --> 01:27:27.239
you know, and so like I
every time, I'm worrying that like,

1292
01:27:27.319 --> 01:27:30.600
oh god, I'm probably missing some
huge thing. I just kind of put

1293
01:27:30.720 --> 01:27:33.279
my faith in the developers and they're
like, m I think I'm gonna find

1294
01:27:33.319 --> 01:27:36.399
it one way or another. You
know, Yeah, that's that's you'd think

1295
01:27:36.439 --> 01:27:41.439
it would be frustrating. But like, again, I don't know how many

1296
01:27:41.520 --> 01:27:44.880
dozens of hours in I was like
there was one And again, I'm not

1297
01:27:44.920 --> 01:27:46.560
going to spoil how they work,
because that's kind of those of the spoilers.

1298
01:27:46.640 --> 01:27:49.680
I don't want to ruin for people. It's like there's one zone ie

1299
01:27:49.720 --> 01:27:54.159
device, one zone e item.
I'm like, how the what is this

1300
01:27:54.399 --> 01:27:59.560
thing? I genuinely don't even understand
what Like it feels as if a caveman

1301
01:28:00.359 --> 01:28:08.960
has come across like a like a
spoon and didn't know what it was for

1302
01:28:09.279 --> 01:28:11.920
it's like, what the fuck is
to me? And you? It's extremely

1303
01:28:12.000 --> 01:28:15.079
simple. I'm so curious which one
you're talking about. But now it's like

1304
01:28:15.279 --> 01:28:17.239
but then I was like, I
don't understand how these work. Oh it's

1305
01:28:17.279 --> 01:28:20.960
making a weird noise and it's doing
something weird. They clearly want me to

1306
01:28:21.000 --> 01:28:23.680
figure some I was like, I
don't know. And then I found a

1307
01:28:23.720 --> 01:28:28.239
shrine in like far east High Rule
Field. Hypothetically, I don't I'm not

1308
01:28:28.319 --> 01:28:30.560
saying this where it is. It's
somewhere. It's like, because I didn't

1309
01:28:30.560 --> 01:28:33.680
travel east right away, I didn't
come across the shrine that would have showed

1310
01:28:33.720 --> 01:28:36.960
me what these are. Sure,
I could have been making some stuff with

1311
01:28:38.079 --> 01:28:41.880
them, but like I got here
and I succeeded up till this point,

1312
01:28:41.920 --> 01:28:45.880
so clearly again they weren't necessary.
But now that I know how they work,

1313
01:28:45.960 --> 01:28:50.039
holy shit, I'm thinking about construction
completely differently. And yeah, to

1314
01:28:50.159 --> 01:28:54.359
Mary's points, like, I'm not
gonna make anything like breathtaking, but like

1315
01:28:54.560 --> 01:28:59.359
it will help me do some at
least. I'm like doing the theory crafting

1316
01:28:59.399 --> 01:29:00.560
when I'm not play which I think
is fun too. I'll be in the

1317
01:29:00.600 --> 01:29:05.319
shower and be like, oh,
I didn't even consider that, Like they're

1318
01:29:05.359 --> 01:29:10.039
shit, like you get and the
game does a good job of Like Mary,

1319
01:29:10.079 --> 01:29:13.640
if this is any comfort, It's
like, there are ways you can

1320
01:29:14.560 --> 01:29:20.319
find blueprints schematics that kind of guide
you toward ideas, but by and large,

1321
01:29:20.359 --> 01:29:26.560
it's very much like, yeah,
I'll have these like revelations where I'll

1322
01:29:26.600 --> 01:29:29.359
be like, oh my god,
run back to this room to try it,

1323
01:29:29.520 --> 01:29:33.239
and the brilliance this game could put
the wheel up my ass. Yeah,

1324
01:29:33.640 --> 01:29:39.079
I should have just been boning myself
this whole time. Such a waste

1325
01:29:39.560 --> 01:29:43.319
of a game, and so much
of the time Nintendo's like, yeah,

1326
01:29:43.359 --> 01:29:45.039
you can do that, and I
was like, oh my god, I

1327
01:29:45.039 --> 01:29:46.039
didn't even think of that. But
yeah, there's certain items. I'm like,

1328
01:29:46.800 --> 01:29:48.640
how is this going to help me? But then I was like,

1329
01:29:48.760 --> 01:29:54.560
oh, I can make a fucking
laser turret with if I combined these four

1330
01:29:54.680 --> 01:29:58.039
things. That's not a spoil.
It's like you can make most things.

1331
01:29:58.159 --> 01:30:02.960
But yeah, it's there's a lot
and it's funny, dude. Talking to

1332
01:30:03.000 --> 01:30:08.119
my coworkers who had code as well. At first all of us were like,

1333
01:30:08.720 --> 01:30:12.800
I'm worried I just cheated that shrine
and did not do what they wanted

1334
01:30:12.840 --> 01:30:15.720
me to do, so that's the
worry. It's like, my even this

1335
01:30:15.880 --> 01:30:20.239
far in, when I do a
shrine and I the shrines, you can

1336
01:30:20.319 --> 01:30:25.560
solve many ways. Many of the
shrines you could solve a handful of ways,

1337
01:30:26.319 --> 01:30:30.479
because the shrines are usually a tutorial
for how to use a certain item

1338
01:30:30.560 --> 01:30:34.359
this way, the only worry I
have is that, fuck, I don't

1339
01:30:34.880 --> 01:30:38.920
I feel like there's a crucial mechanic
in this game that I didn't learn there,

1340
01:30:40.239 --> 01:30:43.479
But again, the game is good
enough to not make it necessary.

1341
01:30:44.199 --> 01:30:46.560
It's just really cool to know my
appreciation deepens for the game every time I

1342
01:30:46.600 --> 01:30:51.960
play it. I wouldn't say I'm
like having as much fun one hundred ten

1343
01:30:53.000 --> 01:30:57.439
hours in as I was at like
twenty five, but my appreciation continues to

1344
01:30:57.560 --> 01:31:00.039
be, like, I'm more impressed
every time I play it. Do you

1345
01:31:00.079 --> 01:31:04.880
think that this game has legs like
a Minecraft in the sense I know you

1346
01:31:05.000 --> 01:31:10.640
compared it to that earlier, which
is just the ability to construct and make

1347
01:31:10.720 --> 01:31:15.840
your own things becomes its own game
right. The ability to make this what

1348
01:31:15.079 --> 01:31:21.880
you want has endless opportunity. But
does this game have that type of length

1349
01:31:23.000 --> 01:31:25.159
to it? Or do you think
you're reaching the end of your time.

1350
01:31:25.920 --> 01:31:29.680
No, I mean I I do
think I need a bit of a break,

1351
01:31:29.920 --> 01:31:31.840
But that's just like anything you play
for one hundred ten hours I think

1352
01:31:31.880 --> 01:31:34.880
I will. To be clear,
I don't remember the last time I played

1353
01:31:34.880 --> 01:31:39.960
a game for well, total war
work like strategy rare that I would play

1354
01:31:40.000 --> 01:31:43.159
it put that many hours into a
game. Strategy games I play a lot

1355
01:31:43.279 --> 01:31:45.760
like. But that's like throughout several
years, I definitely will be playing this

1356
01:31:45.960 --> 01:31:48.319
a lot more. Just right now, I kind of need a break.

1357
01:31:48.479 --> 01:31:54.600
But it was talking to the devs, they were like they knew from the

1358
01:31:54.760 --> 01:31:57.039
start when they first sat down and
make this game that they were going to

1359
01:31:57.199 --> 01:32:03.720
tweak or alter recontent actualized Breath of
the Wilds world. They also knew that

1360
01:32:04.079 --> 01:32:10.520
they really liked throughout playtesting Breath of
the Wild like the emergent shit that happens

1361
01:32:10.600 --> 01:32:13.399
from the ruinabilities. So they're like, let's just go hard on that.

1362
01:32:13.720 --> 01:32:15.800
And like the idea came out,
it's like, let's just give players cheat

1363
01:32:15.840 --> 01:32:19.159
codes, like let them know clip
from the beginning of the game, let

1364
01:32:19.239 --> 01:32:25.199
them reverse items along their trajectory and
make those items indestructible as well. For

1365
01:32:25.279 --> 01:32:29.800
the most part, let's make them
let's let them craft stuff. It's like,

1366
01:32:30.199 --> 01:32:31.520
this might be too much. I
think we're giving players too much freedom.

1367
01:32:31.600 --> 01:32:36.600
But then they started to see these
slow the drizzle and then the waterfall

1368
01:32:36.800 --> 01:32:41.760
of Breath of the Wild, like
YouTube videos of like, hey, did

1369
01:32:41.800 --> 01:32:44.960
you know you could do this?
And they're like that gave them confidence.

1370
01:32:45.399 --> 01:32:48.760
So while I don't think they designed
the game specifically to be this reddit social

1371
01:32:48.880 --> 01:32:54.960
media phenomenon, they knew it was
going to be, but I do think

1372
01:32:55.000 --> 01:32:58.159
it has legs. Maybe not on
the level of Minecraft, because Minecraft is

1373
01:32:58.199 --> 01:33:01.319
designed to just be kind of infinite
with whatever you want to do and make,

1374
01:33:02.199 --> 01:33:06.199
and this like just by definition as
an action adventure game, well it

1375
01:33:06.359 --> 01:33:11.279
is just a bit more limited than
Minecraft. But it's still if people are

1376
01:33:11.319 --> 01:33:15.439
making like orbital lasers already, or
there's one I saw on Reddit the other

1377
01:33:15.520 --> 01:33:18.880
day that I'm like, I did
try making something like that. This player

1378
01:33:18.960 --> 01:33:21.920
definitely finessed it way more than I
did. But I was like, oh,

1379
01:33:21.960 --> 01:33:25.680
I made a bomber plane to drop
bombs, but I was like,

1380
01:33:26.279 --> 01:33:30.359
right, but how do I get
the bombs to release from it? And

1381
01:33:30.560 --> 01:33:33.600
then again I found another new ZONEI
device that I had not found, the

1382
01:33:33.640 --> 01:33:36.760
dispenser for yet or the Shrine for
it was like, oh my god,

1383
01:33:36.840 --> 01:33:41.560
this can release the bombs if I'm
over enemies or whatever. So like,

1384
01:33:41.640 --> 01:33:45.159
but I see people on Reddit doing
this stuff and it's like my theory crafting

1385
01:33:45.279 --> 01:33:49.239
meets what they're making, and I'm
like, I do think this game like

1386
01:33:49.960 --> 01:33:55.560
similar to how there's still videos today
I'm sure of on YouTube of like people

1387
01:33:55.640 --> 01:33:58.079
figuring out stuff you could do in
Breath in the Wild. Though, I

1388
01:33:58.119 --> 01:34:00.239
feel like we'll be talking about this
game for like a decade out. I

1389
01:34:00.279 --> 01:34:00.960
mean it, we'll be talking about
it for a while. I mean think

1390
01:34:00.960 --> 01:34:03.039
about it this way, like they're
like when I was doing the punch Out

1391
01:34:03.039 --> 01:34:06.720
stuff, there are still breakthroughs in
like twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen and ways

1392
01:34:06.760 --> 01:34:11.079
to beat fighters that that was thirty
years after it came out, and that

1393
01:34:11.279 --> 01:34:15.000
was not nearly as open as something
like this. It's the modern punch Out,

1394
01:34:15.920 --> 01:34:19.199
the same game. Well, Mary, you asked about the Minecraft thing,

1395
01:34:19.239 --> 01:34:23.680
and I think Minecraft is at its
heart like a creation thing, so

1396
01:34:23.800 --> 01:34:28.640
you can create so many things like
that is what Minecraft is with this with

1397
01:34:28.760 --> 01:34:31.760
Here's the Kingdom, I think it's
more like these tools you can't make literally

1398
01:34:31.840 --> 01:34:35.279
anything with the tools gives you,
but imagine what it can do for speed

1399
01:34:35.359 --> 01:34:41.119
running and imagine the different ways,
Like that community is going to be insane

1400
01:34:41.439 --> 01:34:45.600
for a very long time. Has
there been anyone who's like beat it in

1401
01:34:45.640 --> 01:34:48.319
a ridiculous amount of time already?
Probably like what like six minutes now?

1402
01:34:48.800 --> 01:34:51.319
On Saturday, the day after it
came out, someone beat it in like

1403
01:34:51.720 --> 01:34:58.359
eighty minutes, which I truly don't. So that's the different thing here though,

1404
01:34:59.479 --> 01:35:02.840
because they do they Acarina thing and
the castle is floating and like surrounded

1405
01:35:02.880 --> 01:35:05.840
by shit. Oh yeah, I
don't know how they even got to the

1406
01:35:05.880 --> 01:35:09.800
castle let early, so like they
definitely had to do some sequence breaking,

1407
01:35:09.880 --> 01:35:14.920
Like it's it's hard. It's funny
to imagine that sequence breaking can still exist

1408
01:35:15.000 --> 01:35:18.359
in a game that's designed to be
about sequence breaking, Like people are still

1409
01:35:18.479 --> 01:35:21.239
figuring out how to break a game
that's about how do I break this game?

1410
01:35:21.279 --> 01:35:26.439
Where I can clip through the wall
and reverse time really breaking it?

1411
01:35:27.079 --> 01:35:29.600
And I don't know how they got
to Hierro Castle. I didn't watch it.

1412
01:35:29.640 --> 01:35:30.720
I just saw that they beat in
like eighty minutes or something. It's

1413
01:35:30.720 --> 01:35:33.800
like good for them. The wild
you can you can just walk up to

1414
01:35:33.840 --> 01:35:36.399
the front door and fight Gannon and
you're gonna can't do that. You can't

1415
01:35:36.439 --> 01:35:40.840
do that here for like A to
B. But I I have to look

1416
01:35:40.920 --> 01:35:43.920
up how they did. It must
have been some sort of actual exploit unless

1417
01:35:43.920 --> 01:35:46.319
I'm unless there's something kind of past
missing. I don't even know what the

1418
01:35:46.399 --> 01:35:49.399
fucking like like fine Zelda, but
like I don't really know, like what

1419
01:35:49.479 --> 01:35:51.720
do I have to do to get
to the castle, Like I'm it's not

1420
01:35:51.880 --> 01:35:56.640
as explicit as like defeat Gannon in
Breadth of Wild you know, yeah,

1421
01:35:57.039 --> 01:36:00.600
yeah, isn't that You're because they
give you like objectives and isn't that like

1422
01:36:00.680 --> 01:36:06.159
your first objective defeat game. It's
like, oh okay, fuck all right,

1423
01:36:06.199 --> 01:36:11.680
yeah right now, like right now, it's up to you whatever he

1424
01:36:12.720 --> 01:36:17.479
and I I'd like some hearts,
like some more health. I love the

1425
01:36:17.600 --> 01:36:20.600
stuff where it's like we're talking about
the direction stuff earlier, and like the

1426
01:36:20.680 --> 01:36:25.760
only like explicit direction I feel like
I've gotten is like enough characters have told

1427
01:36:25.800 --> 01:36:29.039
me like hey, check out Northwest. You know it's pretty cold up there.

1428
01:36:29.199 --> 01:36:30.760
Oh, like there have been enough
things. It's like okay, it's

1429
01:36:30.800 --> 01:36:33.439
it's telling me like the way brought
the Wild kind of Leddy towards the Zora

1430
01:36:33.560 --> 01:36:38.239
area. I can tell it's it's
leading me Northwood. I was so wrong

1431
01:36:38.399 --> 01:36:41.960
with my choices in the first game. I did them all opposite. I

1432
01:36:42.039 --> 01:36:45.560
think you can do that and you
the game and enjoyed your enjoyed your time.

1433
01:36:45.880 --> 01:36:48.720
Like I like the things where,
um, I've noticed things in the

1434
01:36:48.760 --> 01:36:50.920
game. I don't want to spoil
anything, but like you know, you'll

1435
01:36:50.960 --> 01:36:54.560
notice something in the game and not
really think much of it, and then

1436
01:36:54.640 --> 01:36:58.000
you'll like just be in the middle
of the field or crossing a bridge and

1437
01:36:58.079 --> 01:37:00.039
you see somebody with a backpack and
you talk to them and they'll be looking

1438
01:37:00.119 --> 01:37:02.319
up at the sky or something to
be like, oh man, that's crazy

1439
01:37:02.319 --> 01:37:05.640
about those like rocks falling from the
sky. Huh, And like they'll just

1440
01:37:05.760 --> 01:37:10.119
say something that's not an instruction.
It's not like, hey, you could

1441
01:37:10.159 --> 01:37:13.199
do this, but it's like they're
talking about it in a way where it's

1442
01:37:13.199 --> 01:37:16.159
like hang on. And then you
have the realization and you test it out,

1443
01:37:16.199 --> 01:37:18.760
you're like, oh, fuck,
that's amazing, and like that was

1444
01:37:18.840 --> 01:37:21.479
just a guy on a bridge that
wasn't a scripted thing. That was like

1445
01:37:21.680 --> 01:37:24.960
sure they could have planted that guy
in your way or whatever, but it

1446
01:37:25.000 --> 01:37:28.239
all just feels very natural. It's
scripted in a way, but it's very

1447
01:37:28.319 --> 01:37:32.720
similar to what Mike was talking about
with how they avoided putting paint unbreakable objects.

1448
01:37:32.760 --> 01:37:38.880
It's the same concept. They're teaching
you very naturally and organically in a

1449
01:37:39.000 --> 01:37:43.520
way that allows you to keep your
immersion. So I also had a thing

1450
01:37:43.640 --> 01:37:45.840
fall from the sky right in front
of me, and I was like,

1451
01:37:45.000 --> 01:37:47.680
what the shit is that? You
know, you have to check it out

1452
01:37:47.720 --> 01:37:53.880
and you don't know what it is
yet naturally coming across a character later that

1453
01:37:54.000 --> 01:37:56.840
you don't have to talk to who's
like, hey, did you see these

1454
01:37:56.960 --> 01:38:00.520
weird things falling from the sky?
And I was like, yeah, I

1455
01:38:00.840 --> 01:38:04.479
have, mister, what's up with
that? Like, I was so excited

1456
01:38:04.560 --> 01:38:08.800
that he brought it up because I
had been seeing them and I was very

1457
01:38:08.880 --> 01:38:12.560
curious about it. That is like
the ultimate way, as opposed to a

1458
01:38:12.680 --> 01:38:15.199
screen that's like, hey, just
so you know, these things falling from

1459
01:38:15.239 --> 01:38:18.840
this guy, you can do stuff
with them. It's the anti game design

1460
01:38:19.119 --> 01:38:23.479
game design. These things are all
happening to make you feel like you're just

1461
01:38:23.680 --> 01:38:26.760
in a world. And a guy
was like, have you seen this weird

1462
01:38:26.840 --> 01:38:31.159
shit? Happening, and it's all
meant to guide you in a natural way,

1463
01:38:31.199 --> 01:38:35.920
and holy shit, like wouldn't expert, wouldn't expert lesson in game design

1464
01:38:36.000 --> 01:38:40.640
they've made and refreshing in the way
that like, look, I've heard Jedi

1465
01:38:40.840 --> 01:38:45.560
fallen fucking whatever is good like,
and I played Jedi Fallen whatever the news

1466
01:38:45.600 --> 01:38:49.159
Star Wars thing Jedi play Jedi sur
I played ten minutes of it, and

1467
01:38:49.319 --> 01:38:53.920
it was just like one of those
things where I played ten minutes and every

1468
01:38:53.960 --> 01:38:57.000
single thing was like, now here's
this guy and he's got this weapon,

1469
01:38:57.079 --> 01:38:59.720
and now the pop up says do
this when this happens, and I do

1470
01:38:59.800 --> 01:39:01.239
that once and it's like all right, now do this when this happens.

1471
01:39:01.279 --> 01:39:03.199
It's like okay, yeah, I
get it. All right. We're gonna

1472
01:39:03.359 --> 01:39:08.359
teach you know that you could spin
your lightsaber to deflect bullets, and it's

1473
01:39:08.399 --> 01:39:12.560
just like teach me, don't tell
me. Yeah, Zelda teaches you.

1474
01:39:12.960 --> 01:39:15.960
Every element of Zelda is like,
hey, we just taught you fusion.

1475
01:39:16.399 --> 01:39:21.880
We put a pile of shit on
the ground, and also you need to

1476
01:39:23.000 --> 01:39:30.199
get to this next island and there's
a break in the cable, so what

1477
01:39:30.319 --> 01:39:32.399
are you gonna do? You figure
it out, doesn't tell you anything,

1478
01:39:32.640 --> 01:39:38.000
but it's giving you all the pieces
that you need to solve it and have

1479
01:39:38.239 --> 01:39:42.199
that ah home moment on your own. It's genius. The only limit I

1480
01:39:42.319 --> 01:39:45.239
would be worried about is like,
I don't know kid friendly this is.

1481
01:39:45.439 --> 01:39:47.800
I don't how many kids are gonna
understand to fuse this stuff, Like I

1482
01:39:47.880 --> 01:39:51.640
don't see a lot of twelve year
olds loving this game or dad friendly.

1483
01:39:51.720 --> 01:39:55.279
I mentioned it before about the controls, like, I think that the controls

1484
01:39:55.319 --> 01:39:57.479
were a little too much for someone
like my dad who doesn't play a lot

1485
01:39:57.479 --> 01:39:59.880
of games. Also, I was
gonna get him this for his birthday,

1486
01:39:59.880 --> 01:40:03.279
but after playing that, it's like
the controls and just the complexity of these

1487
01:40:03.359 --> 01:40:06.479
systems. You know, I saw
the stuff he struggled with Breath of the

1488
01:40:06.520 --> 01:40:10.399
Wild, and like, I'm just
straight up telling him, like game it's

1489
01:40:10.439 --> 01:40:13.920
only for core gamers. You heard
it here first. I mean, it's

1490
01:40:13.960 --> 01:40:16.319
it's a tough game. Also,
the combat is like I'm dying more than

1491
01:40:16.319 --> 01:40:23.520
I didn't. Yeah, they it
feels like they definitely I got one shot

1492
01:40:23.600 --> 01:40:27.359
a lot, and I think it's
the result of they're giving you a lot

1493
01:40:27.439 --> 01:40:30.119
more power in terms of what weapons
you craft, and you can come into

1494
01:40:30.159 --> 01:40:35.680
a fight with something that you might
yeah you might, yeah, follow your

1495
01:40:35.800 --> 01:40:41.880
your yours is a different problem.
It's like you could be gather a monster

1496
01:40:41.920 --> 01:40:45.279
apart from the other side of the
world that they might not have intended that

1497
01:40:45.359 --> 01:40:48.159
you have, but they kind of
did so now they've made attacks hurt you

1498
01:40:48.239 --> 01:40:55.279
more. Um which as a side
note, this game is extremely funny,

1499
01:40:55.840 --> 01:41:00.159
like you could tell that they're trying
to be goofy, specifically because so much

1500
01:41:00.159 --> 01:41:04.840
of the game your weapons. You
have to craft your weapons, and many

1501
01:41:04.920 --> 01:41:09.960
of them come from monster parts.
I love that lore wise to justify that

1502
01:41:10.279 --> 01:41:14.720
all the monster's horns are just like
weapon shaped. Now, it's like the

1503
01:41:14.800 --> 01:41:18.159
guy has a battle axe for a
like a unicorn horn like you get when

1504
01:41:18.199 --> 01:41:21.560
you start getting like the silver bow, Hobbins and lionels popping up when you've

1505
01:41:21.560 --> 01:41:27.000
gotten far enough in the game,
their horns are like that's clearly like it's

1506
01:41:27.079 --> 01:41:30.119
that looks like the Master sword popping
out of their head. This is so

1507
01:41:30.279 --> 01:41:33.079
stupid, it's amazing. I have
died in the dumbest fucking ways where it's

1508
01:41:33.119 --> 01:41:36.039
like because of systems in the game, where it's like I remember one time

1509
01:41:36.319 --> 01:41:40.720
I was so excited that I made
this, uh, this flame spitting club.

1510
01:41:40.760 --> 01:41:42.000
It was pretty early in the game. It was like, oh,

1511
01:41:42.000 --> 01:41:47.039
I fuse this thing together and you
can have a flame club or a shield.

1512
01:41:47.560 --> 01:41:50.600
Yeah. And so like a couple
of blue choo Choo jellies or whatever

1513
01:41:50.640 --> 01:41:53.560
popped up out of the ground.
It like, oh, these motherfuckers,

1514
01:41:53.600 --> 01:41:57.119
they're not ready for this, And
I specifically switched to my flame shooting thing

1515
01:41:57.479 --> 01:42:00.199
and I like burnt them. But
here's the thing, I kill them.

1516
01:42:00.359 --> 01:42:02.920
So I defeated both enemies, but
they were blue choo choos. But when

1517
01:42:02.960 --> 01:42:06.560
they die by flame, they turn
red, and the choo choo jelly is

1518
01:42:06.680 --> 01:42:12.960
red, and the grass around them
caught on fire, which caused an updraft

1519
01:42:13.199 --> 01:42:15.319
which caused the red choo Choo jellies
to fly up in the air. And

1520
01:42:15.439 --> 01:42:18.479
I'm just looking at them after my
victory, and then it rained down and

1521
01:42:18.640 --> 01:42:21.640
I just burnt to death, right, Yeah, that's that happened to me.

1522
01:42:21.760 --> 01:42:28.720
That's ridiculous. The Chuji jellies are
great also the fact that you can

1523
01:42:28.800 --> 01:42:31.199
throw any item in your inventory.
Yes, yes, Chuoji jellies are great.

1524
01:42:31.239 --> 01:42:34.199
If you stock up on blue jellies
and just keep them in your inventory

1525
01:42:34.439 --> 01:42:40.960
dry so blue. You just drop
five in the ground. You can throw

1526
01:42:41.199 --> 01:42:46.239
anything with the ice element at them
and they'll turn into ice jellies. So

1527
01:42:46.760 --> 01:42:49.560
in what do those do? What
do you? What do the ice the

1528
01:42:49.640 --> 01:42:54.039
white chochoo do? Yeah? I
haven't really used twotoos in any kind of

1529
01:42:54.079 --> 01:43:00.439
wet unless it spoilies, because I
like to discover what it's yeah around with

1530
01:43:00.520 --> 01:43:05.479
the shoot you stuf. Yeah.
I have really liked muddle buds. Dazzle

1531
01:43:06.039 --> 01:43:10.199
Dazzle fruit are my favorite. But
muddle buds are awesome, good names,

1532
01:43:10.239 --> 01:43:13.840
good flavor texts, good games.
There's so much going on here. The

1533
01:43:14.319 --> 01:43:17.199
Hirol Compendium, a little fucking Pokemon
snap bet a game. Have you fought

1534
01:43:17.199 --> 01:43:23.079
any lazelfos yet? I think a
couple? Yeah, fuse with their tails,

1535
01:43:23.960 --> 01:43:28.520
try that out with their tails?
Yeah. How about the fucking Horroblins

1536
01:43:28.560 --> 01:43:32.199
that are just doing the fucking dog
on the fucking like God, they suck.

1537
01:43:32.319 --> 01:43:38.279
I hate those guys. They.
I got a silver Horroblin horn that's

1538
01:43:38.359 --> 01:43:42.239
fused to my link to the past
sort I found in a chest and it's

1539
01:43:42.279 --> 01:43:45.239
like it's about to break, and
I really don't want it to because it

1540
01:43:45.319 --> 01:43:46.880
does a lot of damage. It's
doing like seventy five damage or something,

1541
01:43:46.960 --> 01:43:50.840
but it's I really don't want it
to break My street branches do like six

1542
01:43:50.920 --> 01:43:57.439
and I'm telling it, I'm fusing
them with rocks. Stone ages. You

1543
01:43:57.600 --> 01:44:00.239
do want to go from the Stone
age to like fucking modern day in this

1544
01:44:00.399 --> 01:44:04.279
game. I didn't notice this,
but Bonk brought up that, Like they

1545
01:44:04.359 --> 01:44:08.760
do kind of a little meta commentary
on like some characters like yeah, so

1546
01:44:08.880 --> 01:44:12.279
these weapons will break and like they're
all decayed and fucked up and everything,

1547
01:44:12.319 --> 01:44:14.600
and like some people hate that,
but like, hey, it gives you

1548
01:44:14.640 --> 01:44:18.600
a chance to try a bout of
different stuff justifying their design in the characters

1549
01:44:18.920 --> 01:44:23.439
kind of a little finger to the
weapon durability boses. Yeah, because I

1550
01:44:23.520 --> 01:44:26.000
mean that's the thing, Like I
get it. It's frustrating, but like

1551
01:44:26.079 --> 01:44:29.000
that was such a wh whenever somebody
wants to sho breath the wild, that's

1552
01:44:29.039 --> 01:44:30.600
the like, oh the weapons break, yeah, okay, whatever, but

1553
01:44:30.880 --> 01:44:34.279
integral to the design though, like
you exactly have any reason they go yeah,

1554
01:44:34.399 --> 01:44:36.359
yeah. So I just found it
funny that they brought it up and

1555
01:44:36.439 --> 01:44:39.920
like kind of just mocked people from
making too big of a deal out of

1556
01:44:39.960 --> 01:44:45.000
that. I think it's a great
choice. It's a very strong choice.

1557
01:44:45.079 --> 01:44:49.359
But I think it shows guts that
they they weighed the pros and cons,

1558
01:44:49.880 --> 01:44:55.319
and again they chose fun. They
chose the fun of testing new weapons.

1559
01:44:55.399 --> 01:44:57.960
Then for you to fall in love
with a weapon and get married to it,

1560
01:44:58.119 --> 01:45:00.479
and they're right and you're wrong.
Yeah, if I had one sword

1561
01:45:00.560 --> 01:45:03.520
that shoots fire and was super strong, I would never fucking try. You

1562
01:45:03.560 --> 01:45:09.479
would never get rid of it.
I wouldn't be like yeah now. But

1563
01:45:09.760 --> 01:45:14.119
now, even with fuse in Breadth
of the Wild, at a certain point,

1564
01:45:14.159 --> 01:45:16.479
I started ignoring bo cobblin camps and
ship It's like, I don't need

1565
01:45:16.520 --> 01:45:20.159
to fight them, Let's save the
inventory and Tears of the Kingdom. However,

1566
01:45:21.199 --> 01:45:24.840
you see some high level bo coblems
from Distrar's like, oh fuck,

1567
01:45:25.479 --> 01:45:28.920
I want their horn for a good
weapon to fuse with my really strong hilt.

1568
01:45:28.960 --> 01:45:32.800
It's like, now they've even made
like this late in the game with

1569
01:45:33.079 --> 01:45:36.960
my number of inventory slots and shit, I'm doing that less. But for

1570
01:45:38.199 --> 01:45:41.319
long stretches of the mid game,
I was like, I'm going to go

1571
01:45:41.439 --> 01:45:45.520
fight them. I need more monster
harvesting. Harvesting those horns. Yeah,

1572
01:45:45.840 --> 01:45:48.720
um, what was the what was
that one more throwable item? I was

1573
01:45:48.760 --> 01:45:54.720
going to mention, h I love
being sword by most used. So it's

1574
01:45:54.720 --> 01:45:57.319
like if I need a bright seed
or a bomb flower or a fire fruit,

1575
01:45:57.439 --> 01:46:00.760
it's always is right there. You
know that's nice. Yeah, but

1576
01:46:00.880 --> 01:46:03.680
anyway, um it was Liz alf
was tell I mentioned it, um,

1577
01:46:03.880 --> 01:46:11.279
but yeah, no, not throwing
them in summary. In summary, it

1578
01:46:11.359 --> 01:46:14.119
seems good. I mean, this
is probably we've ever talked about a game

1579
01:46:14.159 --> 01:46:17.479
on this podcast. Yeah, and
we'll be talking about it. They'll be

1580
01:46:17.600 --> 01:46:20.680
new things that we discovered. And
the funniest part is that, like it's

1581
01:46:20.760 --> 01:46:26.439
kind of like generations talking because next
time we talk, I'll be like,

1582
01:46:27.039 --> 01:46:30.880
man, I am thirty hours deep
and I just found this cool lady in

1583
01:46:30.960 --> 01:46:33.199
a pool, and Mike's gonna be
like, yeah, I know, like

1584
01:46:33.640 --> 01:46:36.479
I've been there, like I did
that like weeks ago. Like you'll know

1585
01:46:36.640 --> 01:46:41.079
all the things that we discover and
talk about, you've both probably seen stuff

1586
01:46:41.079 --> 01:46:44.560
I didn't see, which is what's
cool about this game. You know what's

1587
01:46:44.600 --> 01:46:47.600
insane is that, like twenty seventeen, Breath of Wild came out and nothing

1588
01:46:47.680 --> 01:46:50.359
has even like we have not caught
up like no game, No, they've

1589
01:46:50.359 --> 01:46:54.479
been a lot of open world games
since then, none of them have captured

1590
01:46:54.520 --> 01:46:58.520
that feeling at all. Something moved
more in that direction, but they haven't

1591
01:46:58.520 --> 01:47:00.520
captured that. Twenty twenty twos Game
of the Year was probably the closest,

1592
01:47:00.560 --> 01:47:04.960
and it took five years from from
software to sort of oh yeah, yeah.

1593
01:47:04.960 --> 01:47:08.560
Honestly, that was the first time
since Breath Wilde really had that feeling.

1594
01:47:08.800 --> 01:47:12.279
And like now it's like, imagine
just working on an open world game

1595
01:47:12.560 --> 01:47:15.720
and playing this mix. Fuck man, come on, like, yeah,

1596
01:47:15.880 --> 01:47:17.800
this is like this feels like it's
from like decades beyond us. You know.

1597
01:47:18.399 --> 01:47:24.720
Yeah, you're you're you're fucking over
here slaving away on like making a

1598
01:47:24.800 --> 01:47:30.560
BIC while Nintendo's like releases the Harley
Davidson. You're like, fuck the next

1599
01:47:30.640 --> 01:47:35.039
Horizon. Horizon was literally about to
release one with drafting, and they're like,

1600
01:47:35.239 --> 01:47:41.399
god damn it. Yeah, they
keep doing this to us. Um

1601
01:47:41.720 --> 01:47:45.920
Also, her game is baring,
very it's very boring. What do they

1602
01:47:45.960 --> 01:47:49.520
do? They should make a game
that's not boring. They're they're plank Killzone

1603
01:47:49.640 --> 01:47:54.399
was boring, a Horizon boring branch
out make a that boring game for once.

1604
01:47:54.640 --> 01:48:00.640
This is yeah, I don't know
are you gonna argue that our Kills

1605
01:48:00.680 --> 01:48:05.039
on the Horizon not boring series?
I like hers more than you guys,

1606
01:48:05.079 --> 01:48:08.680
But yeah, I don't think there
were anywhere in the same arenas Zelda.

1607
01:48:09.039 --> 01:48:14.359
Um, are you playing anything else? Did you play anything else? Oh,

1608
01:48:14.880 --> 01:48:18.439
Queen Contrarian, I'm playing. Hey, Dan played. I don't know

1609
01:48:18.479 --> 01:48:23.640
if it's indie, but Dan played
a like unique game as well. I

1610
01:48:23.720 --> 01:48:26.680
would at least call it that,
Like you didn't. You didn't play a

1611
01:48:26.800 --> 01:48:30.039
standard game. You played Humanity.
It's weird. I did. Oh,

1612
01:48:30.159 --> 01:48:33.399
yeah, you're a spirit dog that
is teaching you stuff about life and humanity

1613
01:48:33.439 --> 01:48:39.520
by doing livings puzzles. It's uh, have either you played it? It's

1614
01:48:39.600 --> 01:48:44.359
it's no, but I saw a
lot of footage and it's crazy. First

1615
01:48:44.359 --> 01:48:46.479
of all, the whole look and
vibe of it is really good. I

1616
01:48:46.479 --> 01:48:50.159
think it's by the tet respect people. Yes, which is also like very

1617
01:48:50.439 --> 01:48:55.399
like that should say something. Yeah, it's it's it's very very stylished.

1618
01:48:55.399 --> 01:48:57.439
It's very much just got a vibe
going for it, and it works.

1619
01:48:57.479 --> 01:49:00.600
It totally works. Um. But
the thing I I I love Limmings.

1620
01:49:00.720 --> 01:49:03.720
Lemmings was fun, and that series
has not really been a thing for a

1621
01:49:03.880 --> 01:49:08.920
very long time. And that was
frustrating though and stressful in a way that

1622
01:49:09.119 --> 01:49:11.720
like if you ever played Lemmings,
it was like, Okay, you're gonna

1623
01:49:11.720 --> 01:49:15.439
get graded on the end or pass
fail based on like this many Limmings have

1624
01:49:15.600 --> 01:49:17.520
out of one hundred or whatever have
to live. Yeah, this one,

1625
01:49:17.720 --> 01:49:23.159
I just really love that. Like
it's this constant flow of people of humanity

1626
01:49:23.279 --> 01:49:26.840
coming out of this like ethereal door
or whatever, and you need to lead

1627
01:49:26.880 --> 01:49:30.199
them from point A to point B
using of a right. You're a spirit

1628
01:49:30.279 --> 01:49:32.520
dog that can lay down a bunch
of commands like oh, turn here,

1629
01:49:32.960 --> 01:49:36.119
jump here, I'm going to give
you this kind of floatability here, and

1630
01:49:36.920 --> 01:49:41.800
a lot of them are just gonna
die or fall off or whatever, and

1631
01:49:42.079 --> 01:49:45.640
it doesn't fucking matter. Like yeah, I mean you will need to restart

1632
01:49:45.680 --> 01:49:47.680
from time to time because sometimes it's
like, oh, I need these guys

1633
01:49:47.720 --> 01:49:50.600
to push these blocks in a certain
way, but oh I forgot that this

1634
01:49:50.920 --> 01:49:54.079
this branch of people is going to
push it off the cliff or whatever.

1635
01:49:54.119 --> 01:49:57.319
So I'll restart. But you can
restart and you can keep all your commands.

1636
01:49:57.399 --> 01:50:00.760
So is your goal just to get
one human through? What's your goal?

1637
01:50:00.079 --> 01:50:01.920
So you have to get a certain
amount of people, like there will

1638
01:50:01.920 --> 01:50:05.720
be a square and it's like with
enough flow of people, it'll kind of

1639
01:50:05.760 --> 01:50:09.840
fill up and being light up and
you're done. But sometimes there's two of

1640
01:50:09.880 --> 01:50:12.279
them, so it's like you need
to get two of them active at the

1641
01:50:12.319 --> 01:50:15.479
same time. And then there's these
bonus things. There's these gold guys that

1642
01:50:15.520 --> 01:50:16.880
you can find. So there might
be one, two, three of these

1643
01:50:17.119 --> 01:50:20.239
Goldies in the levels, and you
have to have your path of people go

1644
01:50:20.439 --> 01:50:24.119
through them and lead them, and
if they die or whatever, it's like

1645
01:50:24.279 --> 01:50:26.199
failed, you didn't get that.
I mean, you can still finish the

1646
01:50:26.279 --> 01:50:30.479
level, but it's really like I
have not gone past the level and not

1647
01:50:30.600 --> 01:50:32.119
gotten every Goldie just because it's like, no, I'm fucking figuring this out

1648
01:50:32.199 --> 01:50:34.880
before I move on. And so
there is that kind of stress of like,

1649
01:50:34.880 --> 01:50:36.880
oh, fuck's that Goldie's about to
walk off the cliff. So that's

1650
01:50:36.920 --> 01:50:41.039
one where it's like you might have
to restart, but you can keep all

1651
01:50:41.039 --> 01:50:43.920
the commands. So like, let's
say there's a really elaborate level where it's

1652
01:50:43.920 --> 01:50:47.720
like I've put down fifteen arrows and
jump pads and stuff like that, and

1653
01:50:48.159 --> 01:50:50.239
it's like, okay, well,
I failed, but I want to restart

1654
01:50:50.600 --> 01:50:55.920
and let me tweak some things here, and you can pause the action.

1655
01:50:56.039 --> 01:50:59.000
You can fast forward people if like
you've set all the arrows the way you

1656
01:50:59.039 --> 01:51:00.199
want, I mean, you just
want to see it. Hold are two.

1657
01:51:01.359 --> 01:51:05.319
It's just it's it's very much scratching
a Lemmings itch for me that has

1658
01:51:05.399 --> 01:51:10.479
not been scratched. I loved Lemmings
as a child. This is like,

1659
01:51:10.760 --> 01:51:15.279
you're kind of selling me on this
game. I'm really interested in playing it

1660
01:51:15.399 --> 01:51:24.119
after I saw a really crazy gameplay
of so many people like in an area

1661
01:51:24.319 --> 01:51:27.640
and telling them what to do and
stuff, and I didn't realize it was

1662
01:51:27.760 --> 01:51:30.800
Lemmings. ESK. That's a huge
selling point to me. Yeah, you're

1663
01:51:30.800 --> 01:51:32.920
a dog. You're just a dog
running around and jumping and just by the

1664
01:51:33.000 --> 01:51:34.880
way, and every time you do
a command, it barks. So my

1665
01:51:35.000 --> 01:51:41.680
dogs are fucking loving it. Razor
is freaking out. Yeah. I'm like

1666
01:51:41.840 --> 01:51:44.279
maybe an hour and a half,
two hours into it or something like that.

1667
01:51:44.520 --> 01:51:47.079
Like I think there's like seven kind
of worlds and I'm about to start

1668
01:51:47.199 --> 01:51:50.439
three I think, so I'm pretty
early on. But it's it's all been

1669
01:51:50.760 --> 01:51:55.239
really really fun and it just feels
like one of those things where it's like

1670
01:51:55.840 --> 01:51:58.279
when you figure it out, you
can do it right or you can do

1671
01:51:58.319 --> 01:52:00.199
it wrong. And yeah, you
know when you figured it out and you

1672
01:52:00.279 --> 01:52:02.800
have those aha and it's like,
oh fuck, if I give them float

1673
01:52:02.880 --> 01:52:06.159
before they fall off this, then
they'll you know, whatever it's it's definitely

1674
01:52:06.199 --> 01:52:10.439
worth checking out. I think it's
on PS plus, so check that out

1675
01:52:10.479 --> 01:52:14.880
if you have that cool. Apparently
you kished something last week last episode,

1676
01:52:14.960 --> 01:52:20.279
Mary, No, I didn't.
Um, I've been good, which one

1677
01:52:20.359 --> 01:52:25.760
knows it? Let me look at
least here's the Kingdom. It's free subject

1678
01:52:25.840 --> 01:52:30.640
line. The subject line was,
go, oh she kished it again.

1679
01:52:31.560 --> 01:52:34.399
I everyone just wanted to let you
know that Mary kissed it again as Peku

1680
01:52:34.479 --> 01:52:43.159
Niku is on game Pass and has
Benson's launch no I on the switch from

1681
01:52:43.279 --> 01:52:47.800
me well from Long Island. Oh
well no, okay, Well that's different

1682
01:52:47.840 --> 01:52:50.920
if it was like specifically, so
you can play on the plane, yeah,

1683
01:52:51.399 --> 01:52:55.800
playing for the CONVENI for free,
but you couldn't have played it on

1684
01:52:55.840 --> 01:53:00.720
the plane. Then well you can
get game passed on you don't you game

1685
01:53:00.720 --> 01:53:04.119
past? What are you thinking?
You? Absolutely? Yeah, I gotta

1686
01:53:04.119 --> 01:53:08.560
do some crazy stuff. We're not
how to do that. Yeah, no,

1687
01:53:08.840 --> 01:53:15.920
I did that. Fuck your thing. What else have you been playing?

1688
01:53:16.119 --> 01:53:19.279
What have you been playing? A
game called Space Gladiators. Uh,

1689
01:53:19.600 --> 01:53:26.840
it came out on consoles, so
I gave it, gave it a whirl.

1690
01:53:27.279 --> 01:53:30.600
It's a rogue light. You are
a you kind of look like an

1691
01:53:30.680 --> 01:53:44.119
egg or a potato, very oval
and uh thick outlined cartoon creatures comatche and

1692
01:53:44.439 --> 01:53:49.119
you are collecting abilities every time you
get to the I would call it like

1693
01:53:49.159 --> 01:53:54.039
a call of The reason it's called
Space Gladiators is because you're going through these

1694
01:53:54.760 --> 01:54:00.279
procedurally generated spaces and so you never
know what enemy you're gonna face. But

1695
01:54:00.399 --> 01:54:04.359
the important thing is is at the
end of each area, maybe level you

1696
01:54:04.439 --> 01:54:09.199
could call it, you go to
a coliseum where you fight like twenty of

1697
01:54:09.319 --> 01:54:13.399
these monsters and if you get through, then you get all these bonuses and

1698
01:54:13.439 --> 01:54:15.640
you get to go to the next
level. When you die, you're done

1699
01:54:15.800 --> 01:54:19.560
and you have to start all the
way over from scratch with nothing. It

1700
01:54:20.000 --> 01:54:27.920
has a what's that game called I'll
think of it um. I think it's

1701
01:54:27.960 --> 01:54:40.479
called like the super Meat Boy guy
made it h Basement Boy Finding You guys

1702
01:54:40.560 --> 01:54:44.199
got that from Basement Boy. I
really appreciate that. Yeah, he's a

1703
01:54:44.279 --> 01:54:48.560
basement, he cries, that's right, So it looks like that it has

1704
01:54:48.640 --> 01:54:55.600
that style to it. Basement boy. My brain stopped working halfway through the

1705
01:54:55.640 --> 01:55:00.560
sentence. I was saying, uh, does that a lot? I think

1706
01:55:00.600 --> 01:55:03.880
what's neat about it is if you
like Binding of Isaac, there's a lot

1707
01:55:03.920 --> 01:55:12.279
of similarities where you will find an
upgrade and maybe you like it, maybe

1708
01:55:12.319 --> 01:55:15.239
you don't, But the whole point
is to try it and see if it

1709
01:55:15.359 --> 01:55:18.479
works for your current build, for
your character, and if you die,

1710
01:55:18.640 --> 01:55:21.479
then who cares? You just start
over anyway, so you just throw it

1711
01:55:21.560 --> 01:55:26.640
all away. But I found a
really interesting one, which was I could

1712
01:55:26.760 --> 01:55:31.760
no longer get any health from anything. No food, nothing, nothing would

1713
01:55:31.800 --> 01:55:35.479
increase my health. But right before
I go to a coliseum, it one

1714
01:55:35.600 --> 01:55:40.680
hundred percent gave me full life.
So as long as I could make it

1715
01:55:40.880 --> 01:55:44.479
to the coliseum, I got one
hundred percent health, which is a really

1716
01:55:44.560 --> 01:55:47.199
interesting build. It was just a
really interesting character development. And I was

1717
01:55:47.239 --> 01:55:53.479
collecting all these other abilities as well. Some of them are gross. One

1718
01:55:53.520 --> 01:55:58.000
of them was by fart every like
three to five seconds, and the gas

1719
01:55:58.119 --> 01:56:03.760
cloud poisons my enemy. So I'm
running around farting. I had one that

1720
01:56:04.279 --> 01:56:11.199
either there's simple ones right where you
do bleed damage or thorns that's a classic

1721
01:56:11.239 --> 01:56:17.079
where when you get hit you automatically
retaliate against everyone in the room. Lots

1722
01:56:17.119 --> 01:56:23.560
of different upgrades, lots of different
ways to build a character, but because

1723
01:56:23.880 --> 01:56:28.119
it's rogue Light, once you die, you start from scratch and you may

1724
01:56:28.239 --> 01:56:30.800
not ever get those options for a
long time. In fact, you probably

1725
01:56:30.800 --> 01:56:34.319
will never have that same build again. And that's really up to you whether

1726
01:56:34.359 --> 01:56:38.359
or not you find that frustrating or
interesting, because if you love a build,

1727
01:56:38.399 --> 01:56:41.840
you might never ever get it again, but you're always practicing and trying

1728
01:56:41.960 --> 01:56:45.640
new, new, weird builds.
I mean, you mentioned Binding of Isaac,

1729
01:56:45.680 --> 01:56:48.119
and like, I will always associate
that with the first time I became

1730
01:56:48.159 --> 01:56:51.880
familiar with like what a roguelite roguelike
meant, because I think I was a

1731
01:56:53.000 --> 01:56:57.000
game informer and everybody was talking big
on it and I played it, or

1732
01:56:57.079 --> 01:57:00.840
I died and I started over,
and I was like someone worked probably ten

1733
01:57:00.920 --> 01:57:02.600
or something. I was like,
wait, I just start over and say,

1734
01:57:02.600 --> 01:57:04.520
oh yeah, I start over every
time you die, and it's like,

1735
01:57:04.800 --> 01:57:08.479
what fuck that? Why would I
ever play this game? You have

1736
01:57:08.520 --> 01:57:11.680
to start over every time you die, remember, you know, being full

1737
01:57:11.720 --> 01:57:14.479
on you know Dan, just like
that. The game suck? Why would

1738
01:57:14.479 --> 01:57:15.760
you ever do that? And then
fast forward a year or two and it's

1739
01:57:15.760 --> 01:57:18.520
like my favorite fucking genre, you
know, Like, yeah, but I

1740
01:57:18.640 --> 01:57:21.279
didn't. I did not understand it
back then. I didn't understand the appeal

1741
01:57:21.319 --> 01:57:26.960
of it. And I agree,
it's definitely not for everybody. I think

1742
01:57:27.039 --> 01:57:30.920
it's simple in other ways. The
artistic style is simple. It's also repetitive

1743
01:57:30.000 --> 01:57:33.159
because when you're playing a game like
this, you're gonna play the same starting

1744
01:57:33.239 --> 01:57:36.159
area, right. The idea here
is that every time you make it through

1745
01:57:36.199 --> 01:57:40.760
a colosseum, and I think you
have to get through three colosseums. Maybe

1746
01:57:40.960 --> 01:57:43.319
I might be wrong, but it's
let's just say you have to go through

1747
01:57:43.439 --> 01:57:48.079
like three ish areas that lead to
a coloseum before you get to the next

1748
01:57:48.600 --> 01:57:53.199
area. You start underground. Then
maybe you get above ground, you end

1749
01:57:53.319 --> 01:57:57.479
up going to wiley places. But
it really sucks dying and then being like,

1750
01:57:57.600 --> 01:58:00.920
well, I'm under the fucking ground
again, and I'm going to see

1751
01:58:00.960 --> 01:58:04.840
the same dirt for as many hours
as it takes me to have a build

1752
01:58:04.920 --> 01:58:09.479
that I can escape this place again, so I do think that that is

1753
01:58:09.640 --> 01:58:16.439
draining to a degree, but it's
also fun to experience the different character builds

1754
01:58:16.439 --> 01:58:19.880
and you do level up your character
over time for what it's worth, So

1755
01:58:20.159 --> 01:58:23.920
similar tote, there's a couple of
things like that are similar to like a

1756
01:58:23.960 --> 01:58:28.039
hades esk where it's like one of
the things is you get a map and

1757
01:58:28.199 --> 01:58:30.560
you have to choose three different areas
and it lets you know if it's a

1758
01:58:30.640 --> 01:58:35.600
fight, if it's platforming. That's
unique, so instead of fighting, it'll

1759
01:58:35.640 --> 01:58:41.800
be a bunch of saws and you
have to maneuver your character delicately through the

1760
01:58:41.840 --> 01:58:45.520
space without taking damage or mystery.
Who doesn't love that. It's like a

1761
01:58:45.640 --> 01:58:51.880
question mark and you come across the
character and sometimes the characters are benevolent and

1762
01:58:53.039 --> 01:58:56.199
just give you something and help you, and sometimes they're not and they do

1763
01:58:56.319 --> 01:59:00.640
something that you don't like. Sometimes
it's a random pick one of these three

1764
01:59:00.720 --> 01:59:04.079
boxes and it's sometimes it's something really
amazing that will really help your journey,

1765
01:59:04.119 --> 01:59:06.119
and sometimes it's like an egg and
you're like, I don't know what the

1766
01:59:06.159 --> 01:59:12.439
shit this is and then you die
with it. So very h random,

1767
01:59:12.880 --> 01:59:16.720
but I I don't know. I
enjoyed the hours that I spent with it.

1768
01:59:17.079 --> 01:59:24.760
It's called Space Gladiators. I also
like the colosseum colosseum concept, which

1769
01:59:24.880 --> 01:59:28.640
is a bunch of people in the
background, like cheering, and then just

1770
01:59:28.760 --> 01:59:32.039
all these dudes coming at you and
you're essentially fighting for their for the glory,

1771
01:59:32.239 --> 01:59:34.800
and they're cheering and booing you based
on how good you do. I

1772
01:59:34.880 --> 01:59:40.079
think that's like a funny concept that
I'm just like, I'm fighting for the

1773
01:59:40.159 --> 01:59:44.159
attention of the people. You know, I'm getting the thumbs up or the

1774
01:59:44.239 --> 01:59:48.399
thumbs down. Freedom. That's right, that's right. What there's like other

1775
01:59:48.520 --> 01:59:55.000
lines from that from Gladiator that I
don't remember what we do in life echoes

1776
01:59:55.039 --> 01:59:59.520
in eternity. It's not what he
says, what we do in life echoes

1777
01:59:59.600 --> 02:00:02.159
in it. Yeah, but you
said it like the Godfather. Oh yeah,

1778
02:00:02.720 --> 02:00:10.439
I was definitely you come to me
on this the day of my Goddess

1779
02:00:10.520 --> 02:00:20.000
we come around uncanny, mister Brando. Welcome to the podcast. Um cool,

1780
02:00:20.159 --> 02:00:30.159
Space Gladiators. Anything else you've been
playing? Time? I got?

1781
02:00:30.199 --> 02:00:32.319
I got games of my hard drive
that aren't out yet that I am extremely

1782
02:00:32.359 --> 02:00:38.720
excited for. That I'm just not
even fucking touching because I got ship Zelda

1783
02:00:39.239 --> 02:00:43.079
is absolute priority for it. Yeah, it's gonna be a hot minute.

1784
02:00:43.680 --> 02:00:46.359
I also have there's some game pass
games that I will not kish that I'm

1785
02:00:46.399 --> 02:00:50.479
looking forward to playing pretty soon.
Um, but we'll get there when we

1786
02:00:50.520 --> 02:00:56.159
get there. So got Diabla four
right around the corner. Got street Fighter

1787
02:00:56.239 --> 02:01:00.239
six right around the corner. Street

1788
02:01:00.239 --> 02:01:03.600

you can write into fire escapecast at
gmail dot com for questions, comments,

1790
02:01:06.840 --> 02:01:11.520

through a filter that sends it straight to

1791
02:01:11.600 --> 02:01:15.960
the trash. Um. That's firescapecast
at gmail dot com. All right,

1792
02:01:16.079 --> 02:01:24.119
We've got two emails this week from
listeners viewers fire escape ees. Uh,

1793
02:01:24.399 --> 02:01:27.960
Mary, do you want to read
this? First? One from Cold Stair

1794
02:01:28.039 --> 02:01:34.920
aka Derek. Yeah? Right,
I hope your Zelda's and links are treating

1795
02:01:35.000 --> 02:01:39.960
you well. How many clones of
yourself would it take to kill Mike Tyson

1796
02:01:40.039 --> 02:01:46.920
in a deathmatch with no rule?
What a lovely intro he is. I'm

1797
02:01:46.920 --> 02:01:49.640
gonna actually start that again. I
think it's really important we understand the rule.

1798
02:01:49.720 --> 02:01:56.840
Yeah, yeah, how many clones
of yourself would it take to kill

1799
02:01:57.039 --> 02:02:02.319
Mike Tyson in a deathmatch with no
rules. He is in his absolute prime

1800
02:02:02.800 --> 02:02:08.960
and your clones are you at this
very moment. You can swarm him with

1801
02:02:09.319 --> 02:02:13.600
numbers. It's not one v one. I'm going to stop there because there's

1802
02:02:13.600 --> 02:02:16.279
a second question I'd like to start. Start with that. Derek from Ottawa,

1803
02:02:16.359 --> 02:02:24.319
thank you twelve A baker or a
regular? No, A shoot doesn't?

1804
02:02:24.920 --> 02:02:30.039
Yeah. I at a certain point, Look, I am not a

1805
02:02:30.159 --> 02:02:32.399
strong man. I've never been in
a fight. I'm out of shape and

1806
02:02:32.520 --> 02:02:36.279
my body hurts. And we're talking
prime Mike Tyson, the scariest human being

1807
02:02:36.399 --> 02:02:42.600
that's ever walked the earth. I
think twelve is about the point where it's

1808
02:02:42.640 --> 02:02:45.720
just like, listen, he's going
to be focused on it. If there's

1809
02:02:45.760 --> 02:02:48.760
four in front of him that he's
focused on punching at, that means a

1810
02:02:48.880 --> 02:02:51.399
bunch more getting behind him, just
trying to get him in a chokehold or

1811
02:02:51.439 --> 02:02:56.000
something, two or three jumping on
his back, arms around the neck,

1812
02:02:56.079 --> 02:02:58.600
just dragging him down to just sheer
weight wise, you know, if he

1813
02:02:58.680 --> 02:03:01.680
had eight hundred pounds on his back, you know, like right, But

1814
02:03:01.800 --> 02:03:08.119
like Mike Tyson is prime. He
it's not like it's just gonna be twelve

1815
02:03:08.199 --> 02:03:11.960
v one, Like he's gonna kill
a few of you. We're talking to

1816
02:03:12.039 --> 02:03:14.720
the death. Yeah, we're talking
eighteen year old Mike Tyson. No,

1817
02:03:14.880 --> 02:03:17.600
it's gonna be like one punch man. You're gonna have twelve dans coming at

1818
02:03:17.680 --> 02:03:20.760
him and he's just gonna punch through
all of you, and he'll hit the

1819
02:03:20.840 --> 02:03:25.199
first one and like dominoes, you'll
all die well, and all twelve are

1820
02:03:25.279 --> 02:03:29.880
really scared and afraid to move.
So it's like he's you're right, he

1821
02:03:30.079 --> 02:03:32.479
is just gonna like process of elimination. He will just kill them all kill

1822
02:03:32.720 --> 02:03:38.279
right, It's not gonna be just
twelve one. You need enough where he

1823
02:03:38.319 --> 02:03:41.920
can kill a sizeable chunk and it's
still overwhelming number. It's just in a

1824
02:03:42.000 --> 02:03:45.880
boxing ring. Does he have gloves
on or it says no rules, it's

1825
02:03:45.880 --> 02:03:48.159
just Dynasty Warriors, no weapons,
no weapons. Okay, so this is

1826
02:03:48.279 --> 02:03:53.319
like Dynasty Warriors, no weapons,
just in a field. Um, I

1827
02:03:53.560 --> 02:03:57.279
think about him killing them. He
would kill a lot before you. He

1828
02:03:57.319 --> 02:04:00.279
would kill even though, like kill
sixty of you minimum before you, before

1829
02:04:00.319 --> 02:04:03.760
you touch him, he's still gonna
throw a bunch of like a bunch of

1830
02:04:03.840 --> 02:04:06.359
you could jump on him and try
to choke hold. He would be strong

1831
02:04:06.479 --> 02:04:10.239
enough to still throw a few of
you off, like he's gonna be flalling.

1832
02:04:10.520 --> 02:04:14.960
Would he would just reach by,
find him and pick you up like

1833
02:04:15.119 --> 02:04:19.640
you're a tick. I think I
think a dozen is my number. You're

1834
02:04:19.960 --> 02:04:27.760
crazy, you're both crazy, A
hundred per I think, I'm think fifty

1835
02:04:27.880 --> 02:04:32.359
for me now that I think,
I'll say twenty. Life have a sense

1836
02:04:32.399 --> 02:04:36.439
of how scary he was when I
showed you didn't watch together like a ko

1837
02:04:36.760 --> 02:04:40.079
an. He's been like I ever
read it. This is Bianca too,

1838
02:04:40.079 --> 02:04:41.760
where it's like, oh, yeah, you know he's a big famous boxer

1839
02:04:41.800 --> 02:04:44.119
and stuff. But I think a
lot of people that weren't alive during that

1840
02:04:44.199 --> 02:04:46.159
didn't realize, like, no,
he's not just a good boxer, He's

1841
02:04:46.239 --> 02:04:51.479
he thinking murders people. He is
a fucking stone cold killer. He could

1842
02:04:51.640 --> 02:04:55.960
kill you with his fists, Like
of course you could land a punch,

1843
02:04:56.239 --> 02:05:00.640
but then he'll kill you. I
still think twelve. I'm going twelve,

1844
02:05:00.760 --> 02:05:03.760
like he makes draw mary. The
only thing this might not be fair because

1845
02:05:03.760 --> 02:05:08.880
I have a lot of boxing experience, so this might not be super fair.

1846
02:05:09.199 --> 02:05:12.640
I'm not going to survive of this. You can't do this he would

1847
02:05:12.760 --> 02:05:15.119
kill both of you. Okay,
reminds me of when they were like,

1848
02:05:15.840 --> 02:05:18.399
did you like statistically, we can
look it up. I don't remember the

1849
02:05:18.439 --> 02:05:24.720
actual statistic of how many men thought
that they could return a serve from Serena

1850
02:05:24.800 --> 02:05:27.880
Williams, and it was like an
absurd amount. It was like it was

1851
02:05:27.920 --> 02:05:30.319
like thirty percent. Thirty percent of
men were like, I mean I could

1852
02:05:30.399 --> 02:05:35.479
return a serve from a woman,
and it's like that ball would go clean

1853
02:05:35.720 --> 02:05:41.319
through your skull, you stupid person. He's not like, this is no

1854
02:05:41.560 --> 02:05:44.920
rules. It's not like he's going
to be like waiting for the ref to

1855
02:05:45.039 --> 02:05:49.640
ding ding. He's going to come
at you like a fucking massive, unbelievable,

1856
02:05:50.279 --> 02:05:57.520
fucking wait. He's going to just
grab you and throw you. He's

1857
02:05:57.520 --> 02:06:00.840
going to squeeze your neck, twelve
of me. He's gonna squeeze your neck,

1858
02:06:01.920 --> 02:06:04.880
you like a pimple. He's gonna
be grabbing your neck of us,

1859
02:06:05.079 --> 02:06:10.279
breaking them. He'll break Dan,
He'll he will pick you up and break

1860
02:06:10.439 --> 02:06:13.479
you. He'll break I think he's
just gonna punch. I think all you

1861
02:06:13.560 --> 02:06:15.399
need to do is punch a lot. That's a thing once. I'm just

1862
02:06:15.439 --> 02:06:20.119
saying he'll twelve twelve is all I
need. Twelve of us jumping on him.

1863
02:06:20.199 --> 02:06:24.439
I weigh one sixty twelve of us
just getting on top. Sure,

1864
02:06:24.439 --> 02:06:27.000
a bunch of us are gonna die, but like it's a matter of just

1865
02:06:27.079 --> 02:06:29.760
like at a certain point you suffocate
him. It's the battle of attrition.

1866
02:06:30.439 --> 02:06:33.600
Yeah, there's my number. I
think would be two hundred and fifty.

1867
02:06:34.439 --> 02:06:40.680
No, realistically, I say twenty
twenty. What if four of four of

1868
02:06:40.800 --> 02:06:44.119
me are on his back dragging him
down, two or three of me are

1869
02:06:44.159 --> 02:06:46.439
just shifting their pants in a corner, and the rest are just like gouging

1870
02:06:46.520 --> 02:06:49.520
eyes and kicking balls. That's what
I was thinking. You know, you're

1871
02:06:49.520 --> 02:06:51.840
gonna need a bell one hundred,
That's what I'm thinking. So the reason

1872
02:06:51.840 --> 02:06:59.039
I say fifty is the first fifty
he's just gonna be doing this. You

1873
02:06:59.279 --> 02:07:03.239
have to get him tired. So
I'm just gonna be sending waves and waves

1874
02:07:03.279 --> 02:07:08.079
of mary at him while he's like
getting a little tired. He's gonna just

1875
02:07:08.159 --> 02:07:11.000
be like, oh my god,
I'm killing so many women, and he's

1876
02:07:11.039 --> 02:07:15.880
like gonna be a little exhausted.
After about fifty or sixty years. Then

1877
02:07:16.159 --> 02:07:20.000
women I'm getting I gotta kill him. And so then we start going for

1878
02:07:20.119 --> 02:07:23.880
his legs, right, and now
he's gonna he's gonna like bash a couple

1879
02:07:23.960 --> 02:07:26.760
of them and knock me down.
But once we get to about one hundred,

1880
02:07:27.399 --> 02:07:30.600
we'll have enough around his ankles that
the other of us can push him

1881
02:07:30.640 --> 02:07:35.199
over. And that's when the eye
gouging starts. Once you start poking his

1882
02:07:35.319 --> 02:07:39.760
eyeballs and we can get a couple, we both get both eyeballs down and

1883
02:07:39.840 --> 02:07:42.560
he's blind. I got a chance, But then I think it's gonna take

1884
02:07:42.560 --> 02:07:48.439
another fifty to actually kill him.
How are you killing him? Uh?

1885
02:07:48.720 --> 02:07:51.399
Well, we're not. You know, no weapons, is what I've been

1886
02:07:51.479 --> 02:07:56.840
told. So I was just gonna
like put my fists together and just smash

1887
02:07:56.920 --> 02:08:01.039
his skull bludgeon with my own.
But it's gonna take a lot of me.

1888
02:08:01.159 --> 02:08:03.880
And like I said, I'm gonna
lose fifty from the get go,

1889
02:08:05.239 --> 02:08:07.279
just to tire him out, just
to wear him down. I think he's

1890
02:08:07.319 --> 02:08:13.840
gonna have to kill it out fifty
of me. Twelve Fuck off, twelve,

1891
02:08:13.880 --> 02:08:16.800
I'm spending normal people. I'm just
thinking of, like how easily he

1892
02:08:18.000 --> 02:08:24.399
was like destroying the brains of professional
fighters with one punch regularly during his career.

1893
02:08:24.680 --> 02:08:30.640
Imagine us our heads are just flying
off, damaged the brains of professional

1894
02:08:31.039 --> 02:08:37.079
fighters. He got a lot of
boxing experience. Really, this wouldn't necessarily

1895
02:08:37.159 --> 02:08:43.960
be the unfair well realistically speaking,
him put a fist clean through your skull

1896
02:08:43.359 --> 02:08:48.000
and then looking at each other and
you're like, yeah, we still got

1897
02:08:48.079 --> 02:08:52.760
this. I do not got me. I make it clear, I do

1898
02:08:52.880 --> 02:08:56.640
not got this. It's the stubbornness. I think like two dozen to me,

1899
02:08:56.920 --> 02:09:00.359
we'd have it. I'd be doing
like weird gorilla tactic. I'd be

1900
02:09:00.439 --> 02:09:03.960
like scratching at his ankles and trying
to get like feces in there, and

1901
02:09:03.079 --> 02:09:05.640
like, well, we'll break him
down over time. He's gonna get sick.

1902
02:09:07.680 --> 02:09:09.720
Anybody who is not did not grow
my guys, give him Gang Green.

1903
02:09:11.279 --> 02:09:15.520
Look up Mike Tyson Ko montages,
but then also look up Mike Tyson

1904
02:09:15.720 --> 02:09:18.920
interview montage, just because it's like
it's a two pronged thing with him.

1905
02:09:18.960 --> 02:09:22.760
It's him murdering people with punches and
him saying things like I'm going to eat

1906
02:09:22.840 --> 02:09:28.520
his children, and you believe him
him my style, My style is impregna.

1907
02:09:28.600 --> 02:09:31.880
So I was impetuous. My dependent
is impregnable. He's not Alexander.

1908
02:09:31.920 --> 02:09:35.840
I'm a Alexander. I want your
heart. I'm gonna eat his children.

1909
02:09:37.039 --> 02:09:41.079
But he also says I'm sunny.
Listen, I'm Jack Dempsey. I'm cut

1910
02:09:41.119 --> 02:09:43.640
from their cloth. It's at the
beginning of one of um oh, is

1911
02:09:43.640 --> 02:09:48.079
it talb? Well, Mike hus
is out of control? All right,

1912
02:09:48.079 --> 02:09:54.520
I'm twelve baby. Question twelve deaths
okay, thirteen shortest match in the history.

1913
02:09:56.600 --> 02:10:00.880
I will wait, wait really quick. I will say twelve of me

1914
02:10:01.359 --> 02:10:05.399
would stand a better chance to kill
Mike Tyson than I have to return a

1915
02:10:05.520 --> 02:10:11.000
Serena Williams serve. Yeah. Yeah, it's more likely that I would beat

1916
02:10:11.039 --> 02:10:13.119
Mike Tyson than return a serve from
her. I agree. I think we

1917
02:10:13.159 --> 02:10:16.600
should all take a lesson that you
cannot return a serve from Serena Williams.

1918
02:10:16.680 --> 02:10:20.439
But like the statistics of that of
how many people are like I think I

1919
02:10:20.520 --> 02:10:26.359
can return a serve. It's just
like you fool. That's like saying you

1920
02:10:26.399 --> 02:10:31.319
could hit you could just step on
into a baseball field and hit a fastball

1921
02:10:31.479 --> 02:10:37.640
from from Kurt Schilling. It's because
it's Serena woman, so it's different.

1922
02:10:37.760 --> 02:10:43.760
Yeah. Second question from Mike,
could you shoot a shotgun? At the

1923
02:10:43.880 --> 02:10:48.000
water to break your fall if you
jumped from a high place, or we're

1924
02:10:48.039 --> 02:10:54.079
talking about spreading my much cheeks.
Yeah, no, I don't want to

1925
02:10:54.119 --> 02:10:56.439
break my fall. That's the whole
point. I want the water up my

1926
02:10:56.520 --> 02:11:01.239
rectum, Like I don't I want
that a nurse man, I'm not gonna

1927
02:11:01.319 --> 02:11:03.119
I'm not gonna fucking make up a
day not do what I wanted to do

1928
02:11:05.640 --> 02:11:09.199
with a shotgun, although, like
Tears of the Kingdom has me thinking like

1929
02:11:11.119 --> 02:11:15.159
maybe there's a way to repel,
like that's that's Tears the Kingdom level thinking.

1930
02:11:15.239 --> 02:11:18.079
But no, I want I'm spreading
my cheeks specifically so it shoots up.

1931
02:11:20.399 --> 02:11:22.960
And what if you could fill a
shotgun with water and shoot it up

1932
02:11:22.960 --> 02:11:26.279
your ass? What if I could? Or like what if I did and

1933
02:11:26.560 --> 02:11:33.199
I did? They say a body
is seventy five percent water. Not mine.

1934
02:11:35.239 --> 02:11:41.600
I'm pushing, I'm hydrated, unbothered, I have a gun up my

1935
02:11:41.680 --> 02:11:46.079
ass. People come over to our
apartment and it's like, oh man,

1936
02:11:46.119 --> 02:11:48.199
it's like, oh, he's just
doing a shotgun animal. It's fine.

1937
02:11:50.079 --> 02:11:56.039
It's like that Homer when he made
the makeup. Yeah, women don't want

1938
02:11:56.079 --> 02:11:58.479
to be shot in the face.
How many people like, I know,

1939
02:11:58.560 --> 02:12:01.520
people get really into guns. How
many people do you think have put guns

1940
02:12:01.640 --> 02:12:05.920
up their ass? Oh my god, Dan, what kind of question is

1941
02:12:05.960 --> 02:12:11.159
that? Genuine? One? Five
thousand genuine? I have no idea.

1942
02:12:13.000 --> 02:12:16.920
I mean, it's a non zero. What more would it take more dance

1943
02:12:18.000 --> 02:12:24.560
to kill Mike Tyson than people who
have actually put so many probably put like

1944
02:12:24.920 --> 02:12:30.039
you don't know what gets people going? Derek from Ottawa, Thank you so

1945
02:12:30.399 --> 02:12:33.800
much for this question. Dan,
you want to read this second. This

1946
02:12:33.920 --> 02:12:37.600
one's more game oriented from Alex.
Yes, Hey, Gang, Whenever VR

1947
02:12:37.760 --> 02:12:41.880
comes up, it's nearly always with
the context that it's not there yet.

1948
02:12:41.359 --> 02:12:45.279
People still get sick and have to
take a break. Ye. My question

1949
02:12:45.479 --> 02:12:48.880
is at some point does that go
away or is that always going to be

1950
02:12:48.880 --> 02:12:50.520
an innate problem? Giving your DP
expertise and the tech development world, is

1951
02:12:50.560 --> 02:12:54.000
VR ever going to get there?
Alex, I think I'm a long enough

1952
02:12:54.079 --> 02:12:58.680
timeline, Like, look, it's
not gonna be this exact same thing it's

1953
02:12:58.720 --> 02:13:01.039
been for the last you know,
five ten years. It's gonna get better,

1954
02:13:01.159 --> 02:13:05.439
it's gonna get lighter, it's gonna
like find clever ways to kind of

1955
02:13:05.479 --> 02:13:09.399
get around some of the stuff.
Whether it becomes the fucking like Ready Player

1956
02:13:09.479 --> 02:13:13.039
one dominant, like everyone's fucking in
VR and it's you know, like whatever

1957
02:13:13.199 --> 02:13:16.279
Zuckerberg's vision of it is or whatever. I don't know in our lifetimes if

1958
02:13:16.319 --> 02:13:20.479
it's getting there. I think we're
so far away from it right now,

1959
02:13:20.760 --> 02:13:24.560
and I don't really see a lot
of Look at the fucking PlayStation VR two

1960
02:13:24.760 --> 02:13:28.399
that came out what two months ago, and no one fucking talks about it

1961
02:13:28.560 --> 02:13:33.039
ever. Ever, Ever, it's
less. Yeah, the tech will get

1962
02:13:33.079 --> 02:13:35.920
there to the point where it's just
like a pair of normal glasses we could

1963
02:13:35.920 --> 02:13:39.199
put on like that size and like
headphones. At that point it'll be comfortable.

1964
02:13:39.720 --> 02:13:43.680
It's like, well enough people keep
buying each iteration to make companies think

1965
02:13:43.720 --> 02:13:48.680
it's worth making getting there, And
I don't know like that for a fact,

1966
02:13:48.479 --> 02:13:52.520
Like there's money in VR, we
won't get there. Yeah, there

1967
02:13:52.720 --> 02:13:58.399
is money in being able to transport
people who cannot go to a place and

1968
02:13:58.560 --> 02:14:01.960
make them feel that they're going to
place. So yes, we'll get there.

1969
02:14:01.399 --> 02:14:03.800
I agree with Dan, I'm not
sure if we'll get there in our

1970
02:14:05.720 --> 02:14:09.000
gen I think it's going to take
years for technology to get us to a

1971
02:14:09.039 --> 02:14:16.119
place where you genuinely feel like you
are transported safely and without sickness. But

1972
02:14:18.760 --> 02:14:20.119
we will get there, and I
don't think it will ever go away.

1973
02:14:20.199 --> 02:14:24.760
You will never see a world in
which people aren't pursuing VR so much money.

1974
02:14:24.760 --> 02:14:30.199
It's a white whale man ideah.
But like PSBR did not sell well

1975
02:14:30.279 --> 02:14:33.680
at all, I know, but
a lot of VR didn't sell well and

1976
02:14:33.800 --> 02:14:37.199
will continue to make it because there's
money in the concept of it. When

1977
02:14:37.239 --> 02:14:41.000
I am old, I will put
on a headset and I will run through

1978
02:14:41.239 --> 02:14:46.319
fields and kill Mike Tyson when I
am like ninety. So that's my question

1979
02:14:46.479 --> 02:14:52.479
is like how many iterations of it
have to fail commercially before they're like it's

1980
02:14:52.520 --> 02:14:56.640
not even worth Like, yeah,
it's it's, it's it's it's gonna not

1981
02:14:56.760 --> 02:15:01.319
make money every time until they finally
get and then it'll make money. But

1982
02:15:01.439 --> 02:15:03.720
like, how do you yeah,
like, is there a period where it

1983
02:15:03.920 --> 02:15:07.319
kind of like right now we're still
seeing frequent releases of in VR two and

1984
02:15:07.399 --> 02:15:11.319
The Quest two and stuff like that. Is there a downtime, like a

1985
02:15:11.439 --> 02:15:13.800
dormant time of you know, ten
fifteen years and then there's some tech breakthrough.

1986
02:15:15.000 --> 02:15:16.960
I think there will all be a
sudden you know, like or do

1987
02:15:16.039 --> 02:15:20.239
they keep kind of trying for fifteen
years and failing until it gets a little

1988
02:15:20.279 --> 02:15:20.920
better. Like what I'm saying,
it's like, I don't know how,

1989
02:15:22.039 --> 02:15:24.960
I don't know who who's going to
keep pouring the money into this development if

1990
02:15:26.000 --> 02:15:28.960
it's gonna just fail every time.
Like PSVR two, I don't know offhand

1991
02:15:30.000 --> 02:15:33.239
whether failure is too strong of a
word. I know they definitely did not

1992
02:15:33.319 --> 02:15:41.720
sell extremely well. But as someone
who I think likes VR the VR two

1993
02:15:41.239 --> 02:15:46.359
but more than most people, but
even I still like it's just a bit

1994
02:15:46.399 --> 02:15:48.199
of a hassle, like it needs
to be. It's the best r head

1995
02:15:48.239 --> 02:15:52.199
said, I think, but I
still have not put it on past the

1996
02:15:52.319 --> 02:15:56.479
coverage I did when it launched.
Yeah, so like Humanity, I'm playing

1997
02:15:56.520 --> 02:15:58.760
Humanity now. I loaded it up
and it said there's like a PSBR two

1998
02:16:00.319 --> 02:16:01.800
or whatever, and I was like, yeah, there's my helmet or my

1999
02:16:01.880 --> 02:16:05.319
headset right there. I could,
but it's just we're not there. It's

2000
02:16:05.359 --> 02:16:09.279
not it's not a better experience than
just sitting here and playing with controller.

2001
02:16:09.560 --> 02:16:13.680
I'm just saying, like, I
don't think they're complete overt failures either.

2002
02:16:13.960 --> 02:16:18.720
You're probably assuming that what makes technology
like that successful is how many copies or

2003
02:16:18.800 --> 02:16:22.319
how many pieces of hardware it sells. But there's actually a lot more to

2004
02:16:22.399 --> 02:16:24.479
it than that you can sell the
test I've just admitted several times there's more

2005
02:16:24.520 --> 02:16:28.119
to it. I'm just saying how
many iterations. I'm just saying it's a

2006
02:16:28.159 --> 02:16:31.280
little bit bigger than what you think
mine. But that's like, yeah,

2007
02:16:31.360 --> 02:16:35.239
that's I think it'll open your mind
up a little bit. Mike, take

2008
02:16:35.319 --> 02:16:41.760
some drugs. You're fucking you,
heap of bones. I think there's there's

2009
02:16:41.879 --> 02:16:45.680
a lot of different ways to make
money with VR is So I think there's

2010
02:16:46.079 --> 02:16:48.959
more going on than what meets the
eye. And I think it's such an

2011
02:16:48.040 --> 02:16:56.440
untapped resource because of the potential there
when we talk about like when this is

2012
02:16:56.520 --> 02:17:05.360
crazy because technology has come such an
un believable elaborate like VR wasn't possible well

2013
02:17:05.440 --> 02:17:11.719
a couple decades ago, and now
it's crazy what's possible. So I'm weary

2014
02:17:11.879 --> 02:17:15.520
of saying it won't happen in our
lifetime. I suspect in the next twenty

2015
02:17:15.639 --> 02:17:20.280
thirty years it's going to be pretty
fun. What's the curve called Isaac curve?

2016
02:17:20.799 --> 02:17:24.040
No, Isaac's what the hell?
I'll look it up there's one that's

2017
02:17:24.079 --> 02:17:31.959
like, ah, comes Razor.
No, there's one Palmer's peak thought experiments

2018
02:17:31.000 --> 02:17:37.280
at me, It's like, that's
it at a certain point, like the

2019
02:17:37.360 --> 02:17:41.879
curve, just like levels off and
you've hit like the peak of that tech

2020
02:17:41.959 --> 02:17:43.440
you're trying to make, and it's
like, we're nowhere near that yet for

2021
02:17:43.559 --> 02:17:46.840
VR, Mary, you're right,
And then you say that like you could

2022
02:17:46.840 --> 02:17:48.079
sell the tech and stuff like that. But on the other end, like

2023
02:17:48.200 --> 02:17:52.440
if you are a game developer and
you're trying to say what your next project

2024
02:17:52.559 --> 02:17:54.959
is that you're going to invest money
in, and like you look at it,

2025
02:17:54.040 --> 02:17:58.280
you're like, well, no one's
really like the install base for this

2026
02:17:58.440 --> 02:18:01.719
headset is like no one really buying
it or whatever, Like are you going

2027
02:18:01.799 --> 02:18:05.440
to even put the time and effort
into making a good VR experience when you

2028
02:18:05.479 --> 02:18:07.799
could just make a traditional game?
And probably so way more. You know,

2029
02:18:07.239 --> 02:18:11.520
yes, because a company will come
to you and say we're making a

2030
02:18:11.600 --> 02:18:15.159
brand new, cool piece of tech, and we will give you twenty million

2031
02:18:15.159 --> 02:18:18.479
dollars to make this game and hello, we're a PlayStation day. It happens

2032
02:18:18.559 --> 02:18:22.920
all the time. I have a
girlfriend who worked in VR who specifically,

2033
02:18:22.000 --> 02:18:26.360
well she was making regular indie games
and then switched to VR because they were

2034
02:18:26.399 --> 02:18:28.799
like, well, just pay you
money, and she was like, I

2035
02:18:28.879 --> 02:18:35.520
actually have safer income taking corporations money
to make and try an experiment and make

2036
02:18:35.639 --> 02:18:39.319
funky new VR games. And it's
actually been really liberating for a lot of

2037
02:18:39.440 --> 02:18:45.200
game developers because they're basically giving you
a bag of money and saying all we're

2038
02:18:45.239 --> 02:18:48.079
asking for is to make it in
VR, but go have fun, make

2039
02:18:48.120 --> 02:18:52.639
whatever you want, and so they
they don't have to worry anymore. Capitalism

2040
02:18:54.079 --> 02:18:58.760
works because someone's making money off something. Yes, so who is making The

2041
02:19:00.000 --> 02:19:01.840
developers are getting paid, that's like, that's great, the people who are

2042
02:19:01.959 --> 02:19:07.079
funding it. At what point do
they start saying, oh, we haven't

2043
02:19:07.120 --> 02:19:11.600
made any money. Yes, I
agree wholeheartedly. It's if we were to

2044
02:19:11.719 --> 02:19:15.479
like get VR to its peak,
there will be a lot of money there.

2045
02:19:15.799 --> 02:19:20.319
I'm saying, yeah, maybe it
is something like maybe Games for a

2046
02:19:20.559 --> 02:19:22.200
finally will take a break from it
for a bit until it gets more of

2047
02:19:22.239 --> 02:19:24.959
fine, and then they come back
with the PSVR three and it's fucking awesome

2048
02:19:26.040 --> 02:19:28.360
or something. But like that's my
confusion. I'm not saying I know.

2049
02:19:28.479 --> 02:19:33.399
I'm just like, why why do
these companies think they're gonna make money off

2050
02:19:33.399 --> 02:19:39.559
it run by idiots, idiots that
my question is it a pyramid scheme.

2051
02:19:41.079 --> 02:19:45.639
Companies latch onto every fucking buzzword and
like, look at fucking metaverse and NFT

2052
02:19:45.840 --> 02:19:52.479
and look how quickly every douchebag fucking
like every yeah work and those fucking calls

2053
02:19:52.520 --> 02:19:56.120
and stuff. Where's like metaverse and
yes, we're gonna You don't know what

2054
02:19:56.200 --> 02:19:58.920
the fuck you're talking about NFT,
Like somebody saw their idiot douchebag corp.

2055
02:20:00.000 --> 02:20:03.000
A friend on LinkedIn talk about NFT
is being in the future, and everyone

2056
02:20:03.040 --> 02:20:05.959
buys into it because they're dumb ass
idiots with money, and like all the

2057
02:20:05.000 --> 02:20:07.319
people who actually know the stuff say, no, this is actually pipe rings,

2058
02:20:07.319 --> 02:20:11.639
isn't gonna work whatever, but they
don't listen. But money still changes

2059
02:20:11.719 --> 02:20:15.920
hands off of that, whether or
not it's real or not. And I

2060
02:20:16.000 --> 02:20:18.360
don't even think it's like that.
They're like a bunch of like ding Dong's

2061
02:20:18.479 --> 02:20:22.799
like pigeons walking around with money.
I think what happens is is in the

2062
02:20:22.920 --> 02:20:26.040
VC world, in the venture capitalist
world. I like heard this like interesting.

2063
02:20:28.760 --> 02:20:31.559
I won't like get into details,
but I heard this story of like

2064
02:20:31.639 --> 02:20:35.319
someone who was like, oh,
you have to like raise a little bit

2065
02:20:35.360 --> 02:20:37.719
more money. Why don't you go
raise another buck? And the team was

2066
02:20:37.799 --> 02:20:41.479
like, raise how much? And
they were like a buck a million,

2067
02:20:43.959 --> 02:20:50.200
Because to venture capitalists, raising a
buck a million is just like a thing

2068
02:20:50.280 --> 02:20:54.799
that you do. You just raise
a buck. We're talking about a ridiculous

2069
02:20:54.840 --> 02:21:01.399
sums of money. And when you're
putting bids a buck into like six different

2070
02:21:01.440 --> 02:21:05.760
pots, one of them is likely
to make a return and return that value

2071
02:21:05.760 --> 02:21:11.879
back. VR is always a bucket
because it's an untapped resource that one day

2072
02:21:11.319 --> 02:21:18.000
will return Mike's right, maybe it
hasn't returned yet, but there's enough honeypots

2073
02:21:18.040 --> 02:21:20.719
out there. People are constantly like, I will put money into these three

2074
02:21:20.840 --> 02:21:24.200
spaces and one of them will be
VR, and one day that shit will

2075
02:21:24.200 --> 02:21:28.360
be a cash cow and we'll be
like, we knew it, We should

2076
02:21:28.399 --> 02:21:33.000
have invested in the oculus twelve and
you just you have to like, no,

2077
02:21:33.079 --> 02:21:35.440
when to play that bet. This
person that wrote this, Alex,

2078
02:21:35.559 --> 02:21:41.360
is an investor and he's trying to
get our sweet, sweet honey and I

2079
02:21:41.479 --> 02:21:46.319
won't tell you which one to invest
in, but it's coming, and it's

2080
02:21:46.360 --> 02:21:52.360
coming within the next twenty years.
Twenty now, so in our lifetime,

2081
02:21:52.879 --> 02:21:56.159
yes, I changed my mind.
Okay, between okay, let's say of

2082
02:21:56.280 --> 02:22:03.040
the three dumb honeypots here between VR, metaverse and NFTs. I know those

2083
02:22:03.120 --> 02:22:05.959
last two can be kind of intertwined
and stuff. Which one do you think

2084
02:22:07.120 --> 02:22:09.559
in twenty years you could play this
audio? Remember those like early audio from

2085
02:22:09.760 --> 02:22:13.879
ninety five of like people like writing
articles about the internet, but no one's

2086
02:22:13.920 --> 02:22:18.719
gonna be buying things on the internet. Which one? Yeah, mark my

2087
02:22:18.799 --> 02:22:22.239
word, will we look like a
dumb ass if we say like like which

2088
02:22:22.280 --> 02:22:28.280
one? Facebook? Even Facebook Meta
has started to walk back metaverse stuff.

2089
02:22:28.280 --> 02:22:31.040
I don't think it'll be metaverse.
That's they changed the name of the fucking

2090
02:22:31.120 --> 02:22:35.799
company, right that and they're also
not doing well. But um, that

2091
02:22:35.319 --> 02:22:41.079
was I don't think the metaverse.
I think people have realized the metaverse is

2092
02:22:41.120 --> 02:22:50.200
done. NFTs I also think are
not. There's more puney pots dan from

2093
02:22:50.399 --> 02:22:54.719
from if I were to guess a
honeypot. That actually, from my very

2094
02:22:54.840 --> 02:22:58.680
limited understanding, is like whenever I
hear about the blockchain, it sounds to

2095
02:22:58.760 --> 02:23:01.959
me like I don't know shit about
the blockchain. I don't know how it

2096
02:23:01.000 --> 02:23:05.920
works, what it does, why
it's important. But everyone that seems like

2097
02:23:05.000 --> 02:23:09.000
they know what they're talking about says
that, like, the blockchain itself is

2098
02:23:09.000 --> 02:23:13.399
like an interesting piece of technology.
Yeah, NFTs and all that shit tied

2099
02:23:13.440 --> 02:23:16.040
to it are all just fucking like
schemes and dumb stuff or whatever. I

2100
02:23:16.200 --> 02:23:20.159
don't know why, but it seems
like people are actually well actually, even

2101
02:23:20.200 --> 02:23:22.239
like anti NFT people are like,
the blockchain is actually a really interesting piece

2102
02:23:22.239 --> 02:23:26.559
of technology that could actually like could
change the Internet use. Yeah, yeah,

2103
02:23:26.559 --> 02:23:30.879
I don't know what that means.
Facebook started as something totally different as

2104
02:23:30.920 --> 02:23:33.559
well as like the Harvard Is it
some kind of food? Yeah? Can

2105
02:23:33.639 --> 02:23:39.440
I eat a blockchain? I love
to imagine Dan as a venture capitalist,

2106
02:23:39.520 --> 02:23:41.799
like walking around with like wads of
money and being like, how would this

2107
02:23:41.920 --> 02:23:46.639
compare to a train which I can
also afford? They're like, I don't

2108
02:23:46.680 --> 02:23:52.079
know, one am I invested in
trains and this bullshit thing over here one

2109
02:23:52.120 --> 02:23:58.239
of them? You're diversifying the portfolio, But yeah, that's important when I'm

2110
02:23:58.680 --> 02:24:05.479
big king my hot pocket? Is
it reheating? What are you doing for

2111
02:24:05.559 --> 02:24:09.920
the hot pocket? You know,
technology of tomorrow buy you could buy hot

2112
02:24:11.000 --> 02:24:13.920
pocket, like the thing the company? How many hot pockets could I get

2113
02:24:15.239 --> 02:24:20.079
for a million dollars. Favorite dumb
brand things is when like obviously some giant

2114
02:24:20.200 --> 02:24:24.639
brand with a ton of money has
been conned into thinking that like some metaverse

2115
02:24:24.719 --> 02:24:26.360
thing is a big deal. It's
like, we're gonna host a big event

2116
02:24:26.479 --> 02:24:31.200
in the metaverse, and the news
of sea clips of like just some shitty

2117
02:24:31.239 --> 02:24:35.399
ass looking dude up there like a
Walmart stage and there's like two idiot avatars

2118
02:24:35.479 --> 02:24:41.000
like spinning in circles or vomiting in
the crowd, and some poor actual human

2119
02:24:41.120 --> 02:24:45.200
has to be voicing this dipshit guy
on the Walmart stage, and it's just

2120
02:24:45.360 --> 02:24:48.559
the saddest, weirdest, most dystopian
thing, and it's fucking hilarious to me.

2121
02:24:50.000 --> 02:24:52.920
I love that they're nowhere. They're
nowhere near what they want to be

2122
02:24:54.000 --> 02:24:56.680
with that stuff past. I feel
like we're past it. Like I don't

2123
02:24:56.719 --> 02:25:00.239
see as much metaverse. I think
so, I think, But I not

2124
02:25:00.319 --> 02:25:03.680
invest in anything based on what happens
in this podcast. This is not like

2125
02:25:03.760 --> 02:25:09.879
a money podcast where this is all
hard. This is hard and fast Wall

2153
02:27:24.799 --> 02:27:28.879
to Portland this year as opposed to
Connecticut where we were last year, kind

2154
02:27:28.920 --> 02:27:31.639
of shift things around and give the
West Coast some love this year. But

2155
02:27:31.799 --> 02:27:35.760
Patreon, the patrons really make that
possible because that's where we get the nest

2156

buy draino, and you gotta get

2162

Things that you don't want to do,

2163
02:27:56.920 --> 02:28:00.479

02:29:03.239 --> 02:29:07.040
true Dan. What do you have
going on? I got your giant

2179
02:29:07.079 --> 02:29:09.600
bomb dot com. Oh shit,
we're coming up Summer Games Fest. We

2180
02:29:09.719 --> 02:29:13.559
are going to be in LA on
the ground. We got guests on the

2181
02:29:13.719 --> 02:29:18.000
couch, we got stuff going on. I've been in meetings about that.

2182
02:29:18.200 --> 02:29:20.719
Kind of be a lot of fun, hopefully have some surprises, some fun,

2183
02:29:20.879 --> 02:29:24.840
some good interviews, things like that. We'll be checking out games on

2184
02:29:24.959 --> 02:29:28.639
the show floor. It's exciting.
I have not been in Los Angeles and

2185
02:29:28.760 --> 02:29:31.559
June playing games and talking about them
on the internet since twenty nineteen. I

2186
02:29:31.639 --> 02:29:35.440
guess not a lot of people have
left. I left the industry for three

2187
02:29:35.559 --> 02:29:37.440
years, and everyone also had to
not do E three stuff for three years.

2188
02:29:37.520 --> 02:29:41.479
Turns out something happened. But no, I'm excited to go back and

2189
02:29:41.600 --> 02:29:45.079
do this. Maybe I'll maybe I'll
see you Mary, We'll see That would

2190
02:29:45.079 --> 02:29:52.120
be awesome. I shall also be
traveling for Twitch. Will be basically just

2191
02:29:52.280 --> 02:29:56.520
doing our Twitch things and getting ready
for twitch Con, which is happening this

2192
02:29:56.680 --> 02:30:01.879
summer. But right now I'm essentially
just running the games circuit and supporting streamers

2193
02:30:01.920 --> 02:30:05.360
on Twitch. And you can't find
me on the Twitch obviously, on Twitter

2194
02:30:05.639 --> 02:30:09.159
and Instagram under my name Mary.
Is that all you have going on?

2195
02:30:09.319 --> 02:30:13.399
Mary? You're sure you're not forgetting
anything? You sure about that? I

2196
02:30:13.680 --> 02:30:16.319
sure about. That's not why I
don't have anything else cool happening to me.

2197
02:30:16.879 --> 02:30:22.959
Really, nothing that you want to
plug, nothing that you care about

2198
02:30:22.840 --> 02:30:33.239
Resident Evil. There. I played
Resident Evil with my best buddy Mike,

2199
02:30:33.440 --> 02:30:39.239
and we have I think six episodes
now, and they are just gotten very

2200
02:30:39.280 --> 02:30:43.319
offended. You called me your best
buddy. You guys worked together. You

2201
02:30:43.399 --> 02:30:50.200
guys worked together. I get it, we're good, butts uh No,

2202
02:30:50.360 --> 02:30:52.639
it's because of a joke he told
me the other day, and I said,

2203
02:30:52.719 --> 02:30:56.079
that's some best bud joke stuff right
there. That's how you know,

2204
02:30:58.360 --> 02:31:01.079
you know, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just it's a consistent

2205
02:31:01.200 --> 02:31:03.639
joke I do on this show.
That's a reference to somebody I dislike.

2206
02:31:03.840 --> 02:31:07.280
It's very funny to me. It
bonds us. Anyway. The point is

2207
02:31:07.360 --> 02:31:13.319
is that Resident Evil is up on
our YouTube and it's three ninety nine.

2208
02:31:13.559 --> 02:31:16.639
You do not have to subscribe.
You don't even have to like you don't

2209
02:31:16.639 --> 02:31:20.959
have to do shit. You could
just go to fire Escape cast YouTube channel

2210
02:31:22.319 --> 02:31:24.000
and you will see the episodes.
We should put it in a playlist.

2211
02:31:24.239 --> 02:31:28.559
But it's been really funny, and
it's gotten progressively funnier. And the last

2212
02:31:28.600 --> 02:31:33.360
episode, we finally got Ashley and
I'm walking through the graveyard with my gun

2213
02:31:33.479 --> 02:31:37.840
drawn and I guess Ashley's AI just
got confused and she runs right in front

2214
02:31:37.879 --> 02:31:41.239
of me and I stabber and she
ducked it though, yeah, you both

2215
02:31:41.600 --> 02:31:45.879
reacted quickly. I kill her multiple
times in the latest episode, so it's

2216
02:31:46.159 --> 02:31:48.559
worth watching. We should tell folks, if you enjoy fire Escape, you

2217
02:31:48.639 --> 02:31:52.479
should follow the YouTube channel because you
know, up until now, it's been

2218
02:31:52.559 --> 02:31:54.479
like we didn't really have a reason
to, like, you know, we

2219
02:31:54.559 --> 02:31:56.079
had the Patreon stuff, like that's
where we host the stuff, but it's

2220
02:31:56.079 --> 02:31:58.159
like we don't really plug it or
anything. Well, now you guys are

2221
02:31:58.159 --> 02:32:03.360
actually playing through Resident Evil on the
fire Escape YouTube so obviously now that we've

2222
02:32:03.440 --> 02:32:07.079
like established it, future stuff,
Game of the Year things like that will

2223
02:32:07.399 --> 02:32:11.799
be there. It's not like we're
going to be video, but it makes

2224
02:32:11.159 --> 02:32:16.280
sense to be there that you can
see. Yeah, subscribing also is like

2225
02:32:16.399 --> 02:32:18.399
very much we play when we can
find an hour during the week, so

2226
02:32:18.520 --> 02:32:20.360
like we don't have a set schedule, so if you want to know,

2227
02:32:20.479 --> 02:32:24.000
no, it's pretty random. It's
pretty it's it's pretty random, but it's

2228
02:32:24.000 --> 02:32:26.360
worth it. It's a really funny
series and we love it. So do

2229
02:32:26.520 --> 02:32:31.360
go check out Resident Evil on that. And then the last thing I wanted

2230
02:32:31.360 --> 02:32:35.639
to plug is I was recently on
Minimax show with Ben. It was very

2231
02:32:35.680 --> 02:32:41.520
funny. We did trivia Trivia Tower. It's crazy the people who join this,

2232
02:32:41.719 --> 02:32:46.120
they're so smart. They're basically wikis
of games and they know every game

2233
02:32:46.200 --> 02:32:48.319
under the sun. And he'll give
them the most ridiculous clue and they'll be

2234
02:32:48.440 --> 02:32:52.959
like, oh, that's obviously Red
Dead Redemption too, and it's just like,

2235
02:32:52.120 --> 02:32:56.760
I'm blown away that they can pick
out these games. But we did

2236
02:32:56.920 --> 02:33:05.280
charades and I embarrass the everliving shit
out of myself trying to I don't know,

2237
02:33:05.559 --> 02:33:11.479
trying to charade games that I have
no business doing. Am I embarrass

2238
02:33:11.600 --> 02:33:20.319
myself multiple times. I try and
reenact a scene from Detroit Become Human and

2239
02:33:20.479 --> 02:33:24.520
it is bad. That sounds amazing. I guess I could just watch the

2240
02:33:24.639 --> 02:33:26.639
video. I'll describe it and then
you guys come here. Actors in that

2241
02:33:26.719 --> 02:33:31.159
game. Didn't know how the charades. You know, you understand how scharades

2242
02:33:31.159 --> 02:33:35.200
are, you know how to talk
and stuff like that, and he gave

2243
02:33:35.239 --> 02:33:37.879
me games like Angry Birds, which
I can handle. Right, I'm like,

2244
02:33:37.959 --> 02:33:41.120
I'm a bird, you know,
and like I'm angry. When I

2245
02:33:41.239 --> 02:33:45.000
got Detroit Become Human, I was
like, I literally don't know how to

2246
02:33:45.120 --> 02:33:48.319
tell people the word Detroit. I
definitely don't know how to tell people the

2247
02:33:48.399 --> 02:33:54.639
word become. And human is also
really difficult to grab, and so I

2248
02:33:54.840 --> 02:34:00.360
started re enacting the opening scene where
you grab when that guys got that woman

2249
02:34:00.360 --> 02:34:05.879
and he's like, I'll kill her
woman, and Ben is like looking at

2250
02:34:05.920 --> 02:34:09.600
me and he's like, I have
no idea what this is from. And

2251
02:34:09.719 --> 02:34:15.479
I was like, it's such an
iconic scene. Like he was like yeah,

2252
02:34:15.559 --> 02:34:18.520
she's like no, and he's like
I'll kill you. And then I

2253
02:34:18.639 --> 02:34:20.680
was like, oh, right,
you could be a robot. I never

2254
02:34:20.719 --> 02:34:24.760
played that game. Iconic scene in
Detroit. That's an oxymoron. Yeah,

2255
02:34:24.840 --> 02:34:31.760
yea, I heard. I heard
the news is out about mister Hanson and

2256
02:34:31.200 --> 02:34:35.399
h A'm procreating. That's a weird
way to say it. Yeah, he's

2257
02:34:35.440 --> 02:34:39.360
having a kid definitely. I don't
know why that worked. It was his

2258
02:34:39.520 --> 02:34:45.360
last episode because he's becoming a dad, and I'm really yeah, yeah,

2259
02:34:45.559 --> 02:34:52.159
that's fun to hear about. I
said that like a like a Disney villain.

2260
02:34:52.760 --> 02:34:54.680
No. I love Ben. I
know he's listening because this is a

2261
02:34:54.760 --> 02:34:58.520
podcast, so he listens to it. I just he's one of the most

2262
02:34:58.520 --> 02:35:03.600
past names people I've ever met,
and I can't wait to see his thought,

2263
02:35:03.680 --> 02:35:09.399
the way his brain wraps around being
a father and things like that.

2264
02:35:09.719 --> 02:35:13.600
I genuinely I wish him the best. I'm sure it's going to be a

2265
02:35:13.760 --> 02:35:16.959
learning process with a lot of joys
and struggles and stuff like that. And

2266
02:35:16.399 --> 02:35:20.440
yeah, I look forward to He
just seems like the most interesting person in

2267
02:35:20.440 --> 02:35:24.920
the world to me to have a
kid. He's interesting, for sure,

2268
02:35:24.120 --> 02:35:30.280
but he's also just unbelievably sweet and
so I am excited for his journey into

2269
02:35:30.399 --> 02:35:33.159
fatherdom and I appreciated being on the
show. So that was Trivia Tower,

2270
02:35:33.360 --> 02:35:37.079
and it's a very funny episode on
YouTube. So if you're interested in that,

2271
02:35:39.079 --> 02:35:41.000
I only gave away a couple of
the answers. If you watch it,

2272
02:35:41.280 --> 02:35:46.479
you can essentially try and guess before
chat solves it for you, and

2273
02:35:46.600 --> 02:35:50.559
you'll be amazed at how quick Chat
is. Like his audience is nuts,

2274
02:35:50.719 --> 02:35:54.879
Like I know exactly what that game
is, that obscure game from like nineteen

2275
02:35:54.079 --> 02:35:58.840
eighty two. It's ridiculous, very
very good. I'm always very surprising how

2276
02:36:00.040 --> 02:36:01.920
quickly they get it. And also
Trip Trivia Tower is an awesome show.

2277
02:36:03.120 --> 02:36:07.120
It's very funny. Problem I enjoyed
it. Go watch min Max, Go

2278
02:36:07.280 --> 02:36:11.000
be a patron for them. They're
doing great stuff. Yeah, all right,

2279
02:36:11.040 --> 02:36:13.879
those episode fifty five. We're only
we're halfway to one hundred and ten

2280
02:36:13.399 --> 02:36:18.399
till till done. We always said
we would only do one hundred, one

2281
02:36:18.479 --> 02:36:20.879
hundred ten that we're out. Check
the first episode. We said, one

2282
02:36:20.920 --> 02:36:22.760
hundred and ten is the goal.
Yeah, one hundred and ten. All

2283
02:36:22.840 --> 02:36:26.799
right, thank you everybody for hanging
out. We will see you on July

2284
02:36:28.200 --> 02:36:33.559

2285
02:36:33.680 --> 02:36:37.520

2287
02:36:41.280 --> 02:36:46.639
Thanks for hanging out. Twelve mics. He would absolutely by your neck and

2288
02:36:46.920 --> 02:36:50.159
squeeze your eyeballs out of your skull. Yeah, I know. Two dozen

2289
02:36:50.440 --> 02:37:00.799
Bye everybody, see your next episode. The
