51
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:48.720
Franklin. Franklin just like not is
that what it is? Everyone in Giant

00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:56.600
Bomb chat says that Tam is actually

56
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:20.120
was a soldier fighting in Vietnam.
Jesus, that's how the peanuts are.

57
00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:26.480
I didn't realize it went that deep
with the mister shoals. We still got

58
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:29.639
to go to that music. We
have to go to the museum, Yes,

63
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:54.959
Here's the one that Charlie Brown.
I didn't go to Catholic school,

64
00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:59.199
so I didn't look there's okay,
it's because like no one remembers this dude

65
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:10.240
rerun Van Pell. Oh my god, Lucy, I'm sorry. Charlie Brown

66
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:15.720
sucks your whole You watched I watched
that Christmas Ship the other like one of

67
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:20.360
the other seasons. It is so
Christmas dull and boring and fucking depressing.

68
00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:25.240
It's like, yeah, that's why
it's Oh, that's why you like it.

69
00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:30.519
And I'm mister Depresso myself as Depresso, call me, call me a

70
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:34.519
Depresso Martini. I'm right, everyone
says I'm right. I'm right. I

71
00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:36.959
want to be read back. You've
heard it. You've heard it, Charlie

72
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:41.959
Brown. The musical is also very
good. To check it out. It's

73
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:46.000
fun, folks. So we're here
today. We're actually not going to talk

74
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:50.399
about you're we're actually not going to
talk about video games on this video game

75
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:56.959
podcast slash website. Uh grub.
You threw this in the idea or in

76
00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:03.160
the idea hopper for BCR topics this
week Best Things top ten things that are

77
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:08.560
not games, And I get down
with this because you need to be a

78
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:14.600
fully fleshed out person to be a
whole person, right, well rounded person's

79
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:20.519
that's the perfect circle that Indiana Jones
movies. There we go a mix.

80
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:26.600
I mixed it a few things there
so and not gonna lie this idea.

81
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:30.439
I think we were also throwing it
around during our Monday meeting, partially inspired

82
00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:34.800
by the Slash filmcast shouts out the
christ gents. Shall we get on with

83
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:40.319
the list? Yeah? Absolutely?
Should we go one through ten for all

84
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:43.839
of us? Or like take turns, serpenteectors go around the room, all

85
00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:47.160
right, grub Would you feel comfortable
starting? Absolutely? Yeah. I'm gonna

86
00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:50.360
start with with a book, Going
Infinite by Michael Lewis. I like all

87
00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:53.879
Michael Lewis's books. He's the one
that did like The Big Short and stuff

88
00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:57.079
like that. I've recommended in a
few places. This is the one about

89
00:07:57.120 --> 00:08:03.279
Sam Bateman Freed. It is it
documents sort of his rise and then the

90
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:07.079
very sudden collapse. Although there were
a lot of hints and a lot of

91
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:11.079
signs if you were paying attention about
how that was going to go down,

92
00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:16.879
It's mostly a profile of a person
who's like completely just has no interest in

93
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:22.680
any sort of rules or any sort
of doing things by the book and keeping

94
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:24.759
things above board. It's like,
yeah, there's there's like seven billion dollars

95
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:28.920
dollars around here somewhere, we'll find
it and that's not really great for a

96
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:31.919
finance And they tell us the whole
story of that, and it was really

97
00:08:31.919 --> 00:08:35.279
really fascinating, just like, Oh, Michael Lewis's books are one day it'll

98
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:37.679
probably be a movie. You'll get
to watch it that way, But I

99
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:41.559
really like it reading his books.
Do you read shoot books or like ebooks

100
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:45.799
audiobooks? I most have did a
lot of audiobooks most of the time,

101
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:48.000
but for these I usually do the
thing where it's like I have the audiobooks

102
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:52.519
synced with the shoot book on an
e reader. Yeah, and then yeah,

103
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:56.080
do both that That sounds neat?
Okay, Yeah, I did that

104
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:58.000
with what was the project Hail Mary, the one from the guy that did

105
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:03.799
the Martian? Did that that?
Yes? Hmm okay, okay, this

106
00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:05.919
this you know, I say every
year is going to be a big book.

107
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.039
Here, I legitimately think this year
is going to be a big book.

108
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:11.799
Here, let's do it. I
moved from good Reads to StoryGraph.

109
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:18.120
If you like apps that kind of
track your your reading. And I really

110
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:22.840
like story graph because it looks so
much more esthetically pleasing. Well, is

111
00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:24.919
like track you like, use it
to track your books? Yeah, so

112
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:28.120
you can do stuff that you want
to read, stuff that you're reading,

113
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:31.919
and then the it also gives you
insights on your reading habits. But you

114
00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:37.240
can import all your good Reads information, so it's cool. And also you

115
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:39.759
can track how far you're along by
the page, which I like. Oh

116
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:43.440
that's cute. I wow, I'm
surprised you haven't put together some sort of

117
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:48.159
notion situation for this, Lucy.
I'm disappointed. Jeff Bakla, what is

118
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.480
your number one thing? I don't
really have one, but I just wrote

119
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:58.679
a bunch of things that I really
enjoyed Brown Behavior. That's not Charlie Brown

120
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:03.840
looks. It just sounds concul all
the time. I really like the film

121
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:09.200
Poor Things, And even though I
saw it in technically in twenty twenty four,

122
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:11.720
it came out in twenty twenty three, so I'm using it in my

123
00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:20.000
list. It was phenomenal. It
made me believe in filmmaking again. It

124
00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:26.759
restored all my faith in that medium, and I'm very happy that this was

125
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:35.679
allowed to get made. I think
that's the biggest challenge is getting artistic stuff

126
00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:41.200
getting off the ground. And this
is the most one of the strangest mainstream

127
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:43.919
things I've ever seen, and I'm
very happy it exists. I'm very happy

128
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:48.559
I got made. I don't want
to say anything about it because I just

129
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.879
think it's too good to spoil.
So I will just say it's a phenomenal

130
00:10:52.559 --> 00:11:01.320
piece of work from start to finish, really a really sort of smart way

131
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:09.799
of of of communicating some important themes
and notions. And I'm very happy it

132
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:11.159
is a thing. So if you
have not seen it, go see it.

133
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:16.840
I don't know if it's out like
on streaming stuff. I was right,

134
00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:20.720
yeah, so I was able to
check it out in like a screening

135
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:26.960
kind of thing, so you know, I'm cool whatever, and yeah,

136
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:28.279
go see it. It's amazing,
it's phenomenal. Or wait till it comes

137
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:33.679
out to streaming it's great. Agree
a couple of weeks ago and it was

138
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:39.919
phenomena. Hey, uh, not
to spoil anything, but Emma Stone's outfits

139
00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:45.960
in that movie, Oh my god, Like it's just one of forty thousands,

140
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:50.320
Like it's just uh, you know, some of the imagery is just

141
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:56.759
so ethereal and like like you're just
like, man, how did that come

142
00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:00.000
out? How? Like you You're
like, okay, I could. It's

143
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:01.240
it's like you have these things in
your head, right, You're like,

144
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:05.399
Wow, I wish the thing that
I'm picturing in my head could be seen

145
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:07.000
by everyone else. And it seems
like they did that. It seems like

146
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:13.600
they were able to somehow like print
out cognitive abstract stuff and that to me

147
00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:18.799
it was like wow, and I
saw its stone cold, sober. Okay,

148
00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:22.679
is anyone else a little bit scared
hearing Jeff talk so positively about something?

149
00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:26.919
Yeah, I don't like that.
How do I talk about Cowboy Bebop?

150
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:30.279
Come on? It's you know,
come on? So but yes,

151
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:33.559
like, please go see poor Things. I don't know if it's winning things.

152
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:41.320
I think it's nominated for a Bunch
of the Globe Globe okay choice as

153
00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:46.080
well? Yeah, all right,
it's it's so good and I love Rama

154
00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:48.320
Yusef is in it as well.
I love Rama use and I thought I

155
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:56.960
thought so I did not know it. It's a funny movie, like I

156
00:12:56.000 --> 00:13:00.720
think I found myself laughing. Again, we're already saying too much. If

157
00:13:00.759 --> 00:13:05.840
you if you like the favorite,
The Lobster, The Great written by the

158
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:09.840
same guy, directed by the guy
who directed the movies. It's I think

159
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:15.120
it's your gros's best movie. Oh
yes, I would agree. I would

160
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:18.279
have watch them. Wait, should
go for the bottom and work our way

161
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:20.159
up, Jane. No, yeah, the first thing on my list I

162
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:22.879
should see. I gotcha. This
is an unordered list in terms of my

163
00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:28.120
ten, but mine is also a
movie. We talked about this actually last

164
00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:31.600
week, I believe on voicemail dumb
Truck. The first thing on my list

165
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:37.480
is Past Lives. Oh I forgot
to put it on my list. Oh

166
00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:41.799
no, No, I was on
a plane and I cried. I wept.

167
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:46.240
I distinctly remember before we all got
on the train, we met in

168
00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:50.519
the office, and then Lucy had
asked me have I seen Past Lives?

169
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:54.080
And I told her, if you
have ever been in a situation where you

170
00:13:54.159 --> 00:14:01.799
had a childhood crush or a very
close friend, fucking absolutely avoid that movie.

171
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:09.759
And yeah, I talk about a
fucking directorial debut. Gretel's fucking murders

172
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:13.399
in that movie. I forget the
Korean actor's name, but absolute fucking powerhouse

173
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:18.399
of a movie. Just feeling absolutely
devastated and empty, but also kind of

174
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:24.120
content with it. It's one of
those feelings that I tend to try and

175
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:31.159
chase of breaking myself down completely and
destroying myself so I can rebuild and just

176
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:35.559
look at the puzzle pieces that was
me. Whoa Jesus. And it's a

177
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:39.799
very quick movie. It's like a
tight ninety, very small cast. You

178
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:43.679
can sit through it. I believe
it is own streaming now past lives.

179
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:48.519
But also if you were recently getting
over a relationship or something similar to that,

180
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:52.240
maybe avoided for a little stay away, right, Yeah, yeah,

181
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:54.840
you recommended it on a podcast or
something, and then I'm like, oh,

182
00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:56.679
Stace, let's watch it. She's
like, I watched it ready,

183
00:14:56.720 --> 00:14:58.559
and then I'm just like, well, I guess I can't watch it now.

184
00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:03.399
Kind of how it works in my
house fair enough. But yeah,

185
00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:05.440
tight ninety and more about those tight
nineties. Let's get in and out.

186
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:09.279
We've got things to do, people
to see, food to eat. Tight

187
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:16.039
nineties. Let's go some more.
You saying, oh, I'll continue the

188
00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:26.080
theme of doing movies and say Godzilla
minus one. Yeah, what incredible film.

189
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:33.679
I feel like most people know Godzilla
for the Western versions of the character.

190
00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:37.679
Sadly, but obviously, the people
in the creators in Japan have a

191
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:43.840
much closer connection to why Godzilla is
meaningful. Unlike most Western audiences or movie

192
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:50.639
makers who are like big thing stompy
stompy, this is like Japan still has

193
00:15:50.679 --> 00:15:56.879
a surprisingly, all these years later, an incredible ability and knack for exploring

194
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:03.240
the symbolism and the theme behind Godzilla
in a way that is far more meaningful

195
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:08.919
than anything anyone outside of that territory
can do. And it's a companion kind

196
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:15.519
of film to Shin Godzilla, which
I think is also incredible. Shin Godzilla

197
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:23.639
is about how bureaucracy kind of holds
up the process of protecting people and solving

198
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:33.360
the issue of a giant being monstrosity
just suddenly appearing and the entire time like

199
00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:38.960
that, you just you see how
inept big government and is to deal with

200
00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:45.519
stuff like that, and how like
personal egos take over. Godzilla minus one

201
00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:49.399
is the flip side of that,
where it is the same situation, but

202
00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:55.919
instead of the government and authorities doing
it, the people have come to terms

203
00:16:55.960 --> 00:16:57.919
with the fact that the government is
incapable of doing it, and it's just

204
00:16:57.960 --> 00:17:03.639
a small group of ordinary being,
ordinary human beings just trying to figure out

205
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:10.119
how they can deal with this seemingly
insurmountable challenge, and the way they kind

206
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:18.240
of weave the story of a Kamakazi
pilot, Japanese Kamakazi pilot who kind of

207
00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:22.480
abscondes and doesn't fulfill his duty and
has to live with the shame of that

208
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:26.880
and how they give him an arc
of redemption and how it ties into the

209
00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:32.119
appearance of Godzilla. Is it is
like writing and cinema on a level that

210
00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:36.799
is just like, yeah, it
sort of redeems the whole country in a

211
00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:38.640
way, Like the way that they
dealt with that, not just the pilot

212
00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:41.799
himself, they like tie that together
really well. It's very very moving.

213
00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:48.839
I saw people compared to Top Gun
set, the recent Top Gun in terms

214
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:51.839
of like it's its ability to get
to emotions, and it's like, well,

215
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:53.079
yes it does that, but on
a whole other level, it's like

216
00:17:53.119 --> 00:18:00.200
a way above that. Even Yeah, is fantastic. Lucy James, Hello,

217
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:03.759
So I'm gonna take us out of
the movie book zone. I'm gonna

218
00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:14.119
go music. So last year I
really got into the band Health and they

219
00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:19.240
released a new album just before Christmas
called rat Wars and I think everyone knows

220
00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:22.440
me. I'm a very big Nani
Nails fan, and I think, yeah,

221
00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:32.039
yeah, go on, go on. Yeah. And my gateway was

222
00:18:32.039 --> 00:18:34.319
a friend of mine who said,
hey, Nina Nails did a song with

223
00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:37.640
this band called Health. Started listening
to it, mechanized, Yep, you

224
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:41.960
absolutely clocked it? Is it because
the clad with Reznor And so that's why

225
00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:45.400
I started listening to it. And
then I started listening to a bunch of

226
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:49.039
their stuff. And I think last
year was when I kind of got really

227
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:56.400
more into way more into Gary Numan, Depeche Mode, bands like that cool

228
00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:00.400
I don't know how to say the
name put to a B or something.

229
00:19:02.000 --> 00:19:07.440
I don't know it Persurbator, yes, that one. And so I'm trying

230
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:11.559
to be my My thing is that
like I will listen to the same music

231
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:15.839
over and over again, Like my
Spotify wrapped every year is some collaboration,

232
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:22.680
some some mix of Interpol, beck
In Excess, nine Inch Nails and maybe

233
00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:27.799
Maximo Park anyway, So super glad
to find Health really just great music to

234
00:19:27.920 --> 00:19:34.480
just work to my favorite genre.
Yeah, but also just like there are

235
00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:37.839
something that you just can't help but
sing along to. Super excited. We've

236
00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:41.559
got tickets to go see them in
April, and I am stoked and yeah,

237
00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:45.359
and like they did the Maxi Pain
three soundtrack, they I don't know.

238
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:51.640
I think the kind of industrial music
just really works with the way that

239
00:19:51.680 --> 00:19:55.880
my brain does. And yeah,
the tagline is horny music for sad people.

240
00:19:56.079 --> 00:20:00.079
And I my Gav Murphy friend of
our, has got me a shirt

241
00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:06.039
that just says that, and so
I'm stuck. That was That's my musical

242
00:20:06.039 --> 00:20:11.960
thing. Also, I'm super super
annoyed because my we were supposed to go

243
00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:15.119
see Gary Numan last year, oh
wow, and then my cat got sick

244
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:21.440
and I couldn't go wow. And
so I'm super super sad because I really

245
00:20:21.480 --> 00:20:23.599
don't want to go see Gary Newman. I think he's touring again actually,

246
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:29.279
so maybe maybe this year I will
finally get to get to go. I

247
00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:33.480
have seen Carpet's a Brute live years
ago, but I don't really Olama.

248
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:37.920
I love Carpenter. Yeah, I'll
add them to my my list. I'm

249
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:41.200
definitely this year. I'm trying to
do In twenty twenty one, I did

250
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:45.799
a no replay, no no rewatch
year to kind of try to push me

251
00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:48.200
to do more things and just rely
on the same old things, and I'm

252
00:20:48.200 --> 00:20:52.839
trying to do that less, not
as intensely as I did it in twenty

253
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:55.680
twenty one, but I'm trying to
do that more in twenty twenty four,

254
00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:57.720
like experience like that new thing sat
music for morning people. That was it.

255
00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:03.279
Yeah, I've grown back to you, sir. Yeah, I am

256
00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:07.319
going to go with a streaming service, ESPN Plus, which is I actually

257
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:11.440
have part of like Disney and Hulu
and ESPN Plus, and I like it

258
00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:15.799
because it's enabled me to watch a
lot of hockey. It's been Yeah,

259
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:18.880
it's just included with the ESPN Plus
and I've been able to watch every Red

260
00:21:18.880 --> 00:21:22.680
Wings game because of it. I'm
out of the Detroit market, so it

261
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:26.200
means it shows up on there for
me, and I've watched every single game

262
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:30.599
for the last several years. But
it's just like the service is surprisingly good.

263
00:21:30.599 --> 00:21:33.559
It's you know, it's a streaming
app, so it's not it's not

264
00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:36.960
perfect. You will get encounter some
airs every now and again, but for

265
00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:41.400
the most part, it works like
ninety five percent of the time, and

266
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:44.319
I'm really happy with it because it's
like I don't have to try to track

267
00:21:44.359 --> 00:21:48.359
down these games illegally online or I
don't have to try to subscribe to some

268
00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:51.839
super expensive service. It's like now
it's just built right in here, and

269
00:21:51.880 --> 00:21:53.680
it's it's been real nice. I
think twenty twenty three was a year where

270
00:21:53.720 --> 00:21:57.400
I'm like, I'm just gonna let
myself get back into sports. I don't

271
00:21:57.400 --> 00:22:00.759
have a ton of time for a
lot of other hobbies. Sports are these

272
00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:03.119
things where it's like they come around, come around, and it feels like

273
00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:07.319
something I'm I can make an appointment
to go watch and it breaks up the

274
00:22:07.319 --> 00:22:11.680
monotony of everything else that I have
to do that is very routine, and

275
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:14.440
it' say, okay, this is
something to get excited about. And having

276
00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:17.079
this as an option to make it
very easy to keep up with one of

277
00:22:17.079 --> 00:22:22.119
my teams has been fantastic. The
monotony, the monati even to any yes,

278
00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:27.279
Jeff Beckler back to me, what
about did you go We're going down?

279
00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:32.599
Like the discord window on the BombCast
layout here, I would like to

280
00:22:32.640 --> 00:22:40.079
call out drums. Drums were in
the in the just as in the instrument,

281
00:22:40.240 --> 00:22:45.240
as in the instrument. I Uh, this time last year, UH

282
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:55.240
got for my birthday a virtual a
digital drum set and uh it's uh it's

283
00:22:55.319 --> 00:22:59.839
it's changed my life in a very
positive way. Has it changed stacey'son of

284
00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:03.839
negative one? Uh? You know
what, I want you to talk to

285
00:23:03.880 --> 00:23:10.400
her. I will, and you
ask her how it's going, how it's

286
00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:18.720
been going, and she would I
think she would give you an overwhelmingly positive

287
00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:22.960
review of how it's been going.
Now, Look, it's it's digital,

288
00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:26.160
so like I can put headphones on
and no one can hear me play really

289
00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:30.200
so like I didn't get an acoustic
drum set because I'm not a fucking animal.

290
00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:33.680
I can't. I can't do that
to my family and my dog,

291
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:37.799
right, But no, like,
uh, you know, I think I've

292
00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:41.319
talked about this, like I've I've
had him for a while, Like I

293
00:23:41.400 --> 00:23:45.000
it's something I've just kept up with
and uh and I'm okay, like I'm

294
00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:48.079
I'm, I'm, I'm I'm good
enough to just like keep a beat and

295
00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:52.480
like do the thing. And it's
become like a real sort of like bonding

296
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:56.200
thing with the family and friends when
they come over. We just listen to

297
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:59.359
a lot of music and play along
with a lot of songs. And it's

298
00:23:59.359 --> 00:24:02.880
just something I've alway wanted to do, just to like noodle around on it,

299
00:24:02.960 --> 00:24:06.400
and it's, uh, it's been
great. I love it. It's

300
00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:10.200
great to blow off steam. I
feel like Joe from Empire Records a lot

301
00:24:10.279 --> 00:24:15.200
good and great, where he's just
like, oh, I'm upset, I'm

302
00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:21.480
gonna go in my office and do
a bed like sort of drumming to that

303
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:26.240
a CDC song. But I've put
that song on my playlist and I've been

304
00:24:26.279 --> 00:24:30.119
doing that as well, So yeah, it's great. I don't know what

305
00:24:30.160 --> 00:24:32.839
else to say. I think get
it, you know, like it's just

306
00:24:32.880 --> 00:24:37.359
fun to uh listen to new music
and revisit old music where you're like,

307
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:41.000
I think I can play this nice
nice, and you know, it's like

308
00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:45.680
three decades of air drumming is actually
teach me to keep rhythm in a weird

309
00:24:45.720 --> 00:24:52.640
way. So there you go.
Drums number two on my list, Number

310
00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:56.799
two on my list. It's awesome
music related. I got all the way

311
00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:02.480
into Noah Khan this past year,
in twenty twenty three. I'm a big

312
00:25:02.519 --> 00:25:08.279
fan of stomp clapping music, so
anything sounds adjacent to the Lumineers or Mumford

313
00:25:08.319 --> 00:25:14.720
and Sons right fucking Alley, Oh
my god, really, I fucking love

314
00:25:14.960 --> 00:25:21.279
folksy Sad White people music man.
Yeah, it's sad like the Whites exactly.

315
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:23.720
Yeah, Oh that's okay. I
think I knew that though I guess

316
00:25:23.720 --> 00:25:27.160
the whole jam it sounds okay.
It's track just tracks track. Yeah,

317
00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:32.559
it's more country and less folksy.
But if you heard the album by Robert

318
00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:37.400
Plant and Alison Kraus, No Raising
Suns, I think it's called it is

319
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:40.759
okay one of the best albums.
It's one of my favorite albums of all

320
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:44.920
time. Their voices are so beautiful
together. And if you just want to

321
00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:49.440
feel sad and a little folksy in
a little country, please that fantastic.

322
00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:53.960
H y'all know, I'm a big
fan of Olivia Rodrigo. So I wanted

323
00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:57.400
finding Nola Kan because she did a
cover of Stick Season on like in Pure

324
00:25:57.480 --> 00:26:03.160
Music or something. Oh sure,
Yeah, So I found Noah kN I

325
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:06.759
was devastated that he performed at last
year's Outside Lands that I was at,

326
00:26:06.839 --> 00:26:08.359
but I didn't choose to see him
because I didn't know who the fuck he

327
00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:15.559
was at the time. God,
He's done so many remixes of his songs

328
00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:19.400
with other artists I enjoy. He
has a remix to one of his songs

329
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:23.119
with post Malone, and post Malone
is entering the folk world now, and

330
00:26:23.119 --> 00:26:26.440
that's kind of cool. I don't
think he's entering in now. I think

331
00:26:26.440 --> 00:26:29.759
he's been there for a really long
time. He's been there. People think

332
00:26:29.920 --> 00:26:33.599
she's like a hip hop rapost,
but he's not. This guy's a He's

333
00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:36.759
very much not. He's like folks
country. He's a sad white dude as

334
00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:40.039
well. Yeah, that's one of
the saddest white dudes. But the thing

335
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:42.519
that got me is I was high
out of my mind and I was listening

336
00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:48.839
to his discography and then I had, like, similar to past lives where

337
00:26:48.880 --> 00:26:52.039
I had like a weird semi emotional
breakdown. There was a specific lyric and

338
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:55.880
stick season, and as soon as
I heard it and like it registered with

339
00:26:55.920 --> 00:27:00.960
me, I was like, fun, this is a bit okay, I'm

340
00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:07.799
okay being in my thirties now,
all right, okay. Uh. It

341
00:27:07.880 --> 00:27:11.079
was the lyric, so I thought
that if I piled something good on all

342
00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:15.200
of my bad that I could cancel
out the darkness I inherited from my dad.

343
00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:21.240
And then I was like, bro
far bars, all right and that's

344
00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:26.960
my number two, thank you?
No con hell yeah, hey job yeah

345
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:33.480
me Okay, yes, I don't
hear you say anything. Um, but

346
00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:34.880
let me see what do we do? Let me see if I can find

347
00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:41.319
something. Okay, I can stick
with the music angle and say uh jpeg.

348
00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:47.640
Mafia and Danny Brown released it's another
one of my tam Scaring the Hose,

349
00:27:49.119 --> 00:27:53.839
which is a really apt title for
this thing. Obviously people know the

350
00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:57.759
meme, which is like, you
know, y'a'll stop talking about Bloodborne,

351
00:27:57.759 --> 00:28:03.359
you'll Scaring the Hose. And like
in the club sense, it's like music

352
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:07.559
that is, you know, quite
repellent in a lot of ways, and

353
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:12.160
that is exactly what's Scaring the Hose
is designed to be. It's it is

354
00:28:12.480 --> 00:28:18.599
music that is it is that same
kind of Actually, it's a lot like

355
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:23.079
Health and nanach Nails in that regard
where it's very industrial standing. It doesn't

356
00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:29.200
rely too much on like features,
and it doesn't have loads of like very

357
00:28:29.720 --> 00:28:33.440
recognizable samples and that kind of stuff. It is an album which they're trying

358
00:28:33.480 --> 00:28:37.559
to make it as difficult to listen
to as possible in a lot of ways,

359
00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:42.039
very anti what you expect from a
rap album, but because it's so

360
00:28:42.359 --> 00:28:47.759
fucking weird, you kind of are
like compelled to listen more and like try

361
00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:51.680
and understand what the hell is going
on, and sometimes it's got something to

362
00:28:51.680 --> 00:28:56.279
say. Oftentimes it's just like,
how can we make this the most bizarre

363
00:28:56.319 --> 00:29:03.160
thing possible? And it becomes a
very unique and kind of like distinct release

364
00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:10.240
in the landscape of music that they
lean on like cultural touchstones as well.

365
00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:14.400
Like that, there's tracks called Lean
Beef Patty, which is a reference to

366
00:29:14.440 --> 00:29:21.680
obviously Lean Beef Patty. There's Stepper
Pig that's good, Kingdom Hearts Key,

367
00:29:21.839 --> 00:29:26.000
which is quite funny, it's a
good track. Jack Harlow Combo Mill that's

368
00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:30.200
a good name. And then they
have like a set of additional tracks that

369
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:36.079
they called DLC Track Listing, And
there's one track which is just called no

370
00:29:36.079 --> 00:29:37.759
no no no no no no no
no no no no no no no no

371
00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:42.200
no, And it's just that for
like, it is a bizarre and very

372
00:29:42.440 --> 00:29:51.599
like you will either absolutely love it
or you will absolutely despise it, but

373
00:29:51.680 --> 00:29:53.599
regardless of where you fall, you
will be like, I've never heard anything

374
00:29:53.640 --> 00:30:00.920
like that. It's insane. I
love it, Yeah, Lucy. So

375
00:30:02.200 --> 00:30:08.200
my next thing, Okay, So
I read a book called My Dark Vanessa

376
00:30:08.880 --> 00:30:12.880
by Kate Elizabeth Russell. I want
to get the name out there. And

377
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:19.000
it was one of those really heavy
books that I adored but kind of never

378
00:30:19.039 --> 00:30:22.640
want to touch again. So earlier
in the year I read Lalita for the

379
00:30:22.680 --> 00:30:29.759
first time, and Lolita is an
incredible book about the worst thing possible.

380
00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:33.480
It is. It is awful,
and you read it through the eyes of

381
00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:40.519
a Humbert. Humbert who the Peter
Farmers. So there's there's that everyone knows,

382
00:30:40.519 --> 00:30:42.319
everyone knows about Lolita. My Dark
Vanessa. No, I don't know

383
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:47.440
that is we got a time crunch
back. I'm sorry. I guess I

384
00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:52.759
have to google something. Oh God, anyway, so sorry, I don't

385
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:56.279
know what do you want from me. I can't tell this is a bit

386
00:30:56.400 --> 00:30:59.440
or not. I'm gonna move on. It's not a bit. Okay,

387
00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:06.119
you google that my Dokanessa ca Yeah, Aalita's book anyway. Okay, yes,

388
00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:07.279
there you go, there you go. Yeah. So my my doc

389
00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:12.720
Vanessa is about a girl and the
pros references Lolita a lot, and when

390
00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:18.480
she's fifteen, she is essentially groomed
by her teacher. But as a fifteen

391
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:21.839
year old, she's like, I'm
falling in love with him. He thinks

392
00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:25.480
I'm so mature. They have this
relationship for years, and then it's a

393
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:33.160
split timeline of when she is thirty
and he is being exposed in the papers,

394
00:31:33.200 --> 00:31:37.200
like it is all coming out,
someone's gone to the authorities, and

395
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:42.119
he gets back into her life.
And it is so well written. And

396
00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:45.799
I think, you know, as
a girl, who you know when you

397
00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:48.759
are that age you always look up
to and you kind of fancy the older

398
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:52.839
guys and seeing how that works,
and it just, yeah, it was.

399
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:56.680
It was really well written. I
immediately like told all my female friends

400
00:31:56.720 --> 00:32:00.440
to read it. And it's it's
a heavy one, especially doing it in

401
00:32:00.440 --> 00:32:04.839
a double bill with Lolita. Yeah, it sounds like a lot, but

402
00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:07.720
it was one of the best things
I've read last year. Nice. So

403
00:32:07.920 --> 00:32:10.680
I'm sorry, so you so that
you didn't read Lolita, you read something

404
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:15.079
else. I read a Lina first
and then this in a double bill.

405
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:21.920
Wow, Okay, I now know
the things we're talking about. All right

406
00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:28.160
Back to you, Grub You're number
three. Yes. So I was on

407
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:30.680
TikTok and I kept getting these videos
so these people doing this really cool dance

408
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:32.640
and I like the music, and
I was like, what is this?

409
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:35.720
And I had to like kind of
look around to figure out what it was.

410
00:32:35.799 --> 00:32:39.279
It's called back on seventy four by
Jungle. Back on seventy four is

411
00:32:40.759 --> 00:32:44.920
it's a song, but the dance
is like this dance troupe that does the

412
00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:47.880
dances for all the music videos for
this band called Jungle, And it is

413
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:53.519
really really well done dancing to the
point where I think it's it's highly skilled

414
00:32:53.599 --> 00:32:58.519
and I think people who are into
like street dancing would kind of appreciate it.

415
00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:01.200
But it's done with such beauty that
it's very easy for like a lay

416
00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:04.920
person like myself to like look and
be like that. The way they are

417
00:33:04.920 --> 00:33:09.440
moving their bodies is very enticing and
it's attractive, but it's also like telling

418
00:33:09.480 --> 00:33:13.359
a story and it just it makes
you want to get up and dance.

419
00:33:13.680 --> 00:33:16.319
And I watched this probably like one
hundred times over the course of a week.

420
00:33:17.319 --> 00:33:21.279
You probably if you watch this,
you'll probably recognize it because I bet

421
00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:23.079
it's come up on like your Instagrams
and stuff like that. But yeah,

422
00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:28.039
back on seventy four by Jungle.
It's a really good song to the music's

423
00:33:28.039 --> 00:33:29.720
great, But every time I hear
the song, I just want to go

424
00:33:29.759 --> 00:33:32.079
watch the video because I want to
see the dancing and it just makes you

425
00:33:32.119 --> 00:33:35.559
kind of want to move your bodies
and ways you haven't moved it before.

426
00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:40.000
So yeah, I just highly recommend
Jeff Beckelart back to You. Ah The

427
00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:44.680
Bear, Ah, The Bear,
The Bear, The Bear, The Bear.

428
00:33:45.440 --> 00:33:53.920
The Bear is a master class in
storytelling an episodic television, and the

429
00:33:53.960 --> 00:34:00.319
most recent season includes what I believe
to be one of the best episodes of

430
00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:06.200
television ever conceived by humans. There's
nothing else to say. It's a phenomenal

431
00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:15.639
show with phenomenal performances and a like
one of the most I'd say this about

432
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:17.519
the second season more than the first
season, but one of the most easiest

433
00:34:17.559 --> 00:34:24.119
shows to watch because of how intoxicating
it is, and it's getting all these

434
00:34:24.159 --> 00:34:30.360
awards because it's the fucking best.
It's a rare thing when that lines up.

435
00:34:30.760 --> 00:34:34.800
But in the case of The Bear, it's true. It deserves everything

436
00:34:35.000 --> 00:34:40.360
and more. A phenomenal cast.
Everyone is so lovable and likable, and

437
00:34:40.559 --> 00:34:44.840
that's it. You've probably heard of
the show. Yeah, you don't live

438
00:34:44.880 --> 00:34:49.639
on Backler and I have probably talked
about it at nauseam as well. Yep,

439
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:53.320
it's true. That's all there is
to it. Go watch The Bear

440
00:34:53.360 --> 00:34:59.360
if you haven't. The third thing
on my list was God's Liu minus one.

441
00:34:59.480 --> 00:35:02.679
I'll skip the next one. I'm
a big fan. This is another

442
00:35:02.719 --> 00:35:07.480
movie. I'm a big Marvel fan. And last year was a terrible year

443
00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:12.800
for Marvel fans, specifically the MCU. Just why is that just bad films

444
00:35:13.159 --> 00:35:16.719
after bad films after bad projects.
But I think the best Marvel film and

445
00:35:16.760 --> 00:35:22.719
best superhero film to come out last
year was Guardians of the Galaxy Volume three,

446
00:35:23.239 --> 00:35:29.679
and it's actually satisfying conclusion to that
specific trilogy. Y'all know that I

447
00:35:29.719 --> 00:35:32.199
love the Guardians game. This is
just building on top of that in terms

448
00:35:32.199 --> 00:35:37.599
of like found family stuff and kind
of departing, but departing on your own

449
00:35:37.639 --> 00:35:42.159
terms in a good way. And
yeah, if you if any of those

450
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:45.719
first two movies appeal to you at
all, I definitely recommend checking out the

451
00:35:45.719 --> 00:35:47.800
third one. I don't think you
even need to be up to date with

452
00:35:47.880 --> 00:35:52.400
all the other shit happening. You
don't need to have seen Endgame or Infinity

453
00:35:52.400 --> 00:35:58.679
War to understand or the Marvels any
of them to understand that, oh shit's

454
00:35:58.719 --> 00:36:01.440
happened. People who got maybe you
should watch the Christmas Special. Actually,

455
00:36:01.599 --> 00:36:07.199
the Christmas Special is actually pretty much
dizeyplus and hey, anything with Dave Bautista

456
00:36:07.320 --> 00:36:10.800
automatic list thing. For me,
I've not watched this as someone who was

457
00:36:10.800 --> 00:36:15.159
a huge MCU fan. I just
kind of was like, I'm done with

458
00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:17.079
it, even even Guardians like,
I never could imagine the world where I

459
00:36:17.079 --> 00:36:20.480
wouldn't watch that, But I'm I'm
gonna, I'm gonna make time for this

460
00:36:21.159 --> 00:36:22.920
in the next week or so.
I don't need to give mix. Should

461
00:36:22.960 --> 00:36:25.159
watch it with you though, gres
Yeah, No, I've heard that.

462
00:36:25.239 --> 00:36:28.239
Yes, I've also I think it's
one of the things to kind of kept

463
00:36:28.280 --> 00:36:32.039
be away from. It is like
like I'm kind of like a like a

464
00:36:32.039 --> 00:36:35.920
an exposed nerve with a lot of
stuff that's very emotional or it deals with

465
00:36:35.960 --> 00:36:37.199
like a lot of trauma, and
I'm like, God, it could be

466
00:36:37.199 --> 00:36:39.719
tough for me sometimes. So I
think I mostly avoided it for that.

467
00:36:39.760 --> 00:36:43.760
But I think I'm ready. I'm
ready to love. Yeah, And then

468
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:47.960
you know that I don't like projecting
too many times like myself or like my

469
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:52.679
life onto characters or whatever, but
it just winds up inevitably happening. And

470
00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:59.079
then you know the way that that
movie concludes with specific characters having to kind

471
00:36:59.079 --> 00:37:06.440
of start anew that reminds me of
my own life sometimes. Damn all right,

472
00:37:06.719 --> 00:37:13.400
let's get gross. Oh I already
saw you prepping getting gross? My

473
00:37:13.519 --> 00:37:22.239
favorite thing. Let me tell you
about my visual Wi fi endoscope. Oh

474
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:28.000
wait, why are some Why are
you saying yes? Which allows me to

475
00:37:28.719 --> 00:37:35.599
look inside my ear like so vardial
listeners. He just stuck it into his

476
00:37:35.639 --> 00:37:39.360
ear and then he held up his
phone with consent and showed me his ear

477
00:37:39.400 --> 00:37:46.000
canal. Have you ever had someone
like like a trench coat on the street,

478
00:37:46.079 --> 00:37:51.679
you colon oscipy? Fuck? Are
you doing? This thing? Is

479
00:37:51.920 --> 00:37:55.760
incredible? It costs me like thirty
dollars on animal. Why do you need

480
00:37:55.800 --> 00:38:00.280
this? Why do you need this? Just to see what's up? What's

481
00:38:00.320 --> 00:38:06.920
going on? What's in my head? Get ahead? Now I can very

482
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:19.760
carefully clean my own ear. Nice
ear. Congratulations on that professional? Are

483
00:38:19.800 --> 00:38:25.320
you? Aren't you? I would
never let someone rob me of the joy

484
00:38:25.480 --> 00:38:30.639
of cleaning out my own I guess
you know you are one of these pimple

485
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:38.199
popper videos people. Yes, I
am creeping creep you listen. I just

486
00:38:38.239 --> 00:38:40.760
wanted to know what's going on in
there, Okay, I just wanted to

487
00:38:40.800 --> 00:38:45.039
see what what is happening. Let
me tell you my ear is surprisingly clean

488
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:47.400
always, but every now and then
I go in there and I'm like,

489
00:38:47.440 --> 00:38:54.280
oh yeah, And then I get
my cat and I go come here,

490
00:38:54.360 --> 00:38:59.880
kitty, kitty, time to look
inside your brain as well, that's why.

491
00:39:00.400 --> 00:39:02.800
Oh yeah, no, no,
no, never, never, the

492
00:39:02.880 --> 00:39:09.639
inside of my nose. Now,
you guys are so I'm sorry. I

493
00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:15.519
can't get on board. I can't
get on board. Right. Well,

494
00:39:15.639 --> 00:39:19.840
I'm going to bring this to Packs
and John we're putting up on the screen.

495
00:39:23.079 --> 00:39:29.280
Okay, listen, James cannot reward
these secoms. You know the best

496
00:39:29.280 --> 00:39:31.880
thing about this is on the app
you can press the bone take a screen

497
00:39:31.920 --> 00:39:37.320
shot at any point, so you
could just be like, this is disgusting

498
00:39:38.719 --> 00:39:43.320
question about someone. I have a
question. Does it? Does it like

499
00:39:43.440 --> 00:39:47.519
fucking? Is that like a cleaning
mechanism. It's got like this tip,

500
00:39:47.559 --> 00:39:52.599
which is like a kind of rubberized
tip. Thanks for saying that, Lucy.

501
00:39:52.719 --> 00:39:59.639
And you get different attachments for it, depending on depending on how came

502
00:39:59.760 --> 00:40:08.320
a hale attachment in. Now,
okay, very good. I'm sorry.

503
00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:13.000
I'm the weirdo. Now I'm talking
about sticking a camera in your dick hole.

504
00:40:13.199 --> 00:40:20.840
But this guy has like, literally
come on, start doing it and

505
00:40:20.880 --> 00:40:22.639
then then you're like, oh this
is You're like, oh, sorry,

506
00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:28.639
that's a bridge too far back,
Jane. You okay, I don't feel

507
00:40:28.639 --> 00:40:30.119
so good. Yeah, I don't
feel well either. I'm sorry I had

508
00:40:30.159 --> 00:40:34.280
to go to that. You never
feel well, that's your normal state of

509
00:40:34.320 --> 00:40:37.800
being. I'm worried about jan now, all right, all Lucy. So

510
00:40:38.159 --> 00:40:44.679
I went to Amsterdam with my friends
in November because my friend Kristen moved over

511
00:40:44.719 --> 00:40:49.800
there. And while we were there, we went to like a little shop

512
00:40:49.840 --> 00:40:57.519
on the on the corner and my
friend Jen got this. She was it's

513
00:40:57.519 --> 00:41:05.960
a little tube of cheese. Okay, I like the chef had She was,

514
00:41:07.920 --> 00:41:10.199
oh, that's cute. Intrigued by
it because it's a little chef on

515
00:41:10.239 --> 00:41:15.679
the on the tube and then the
hat is the the cap of the thing

516
00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:19.360
and then if you I'm going to
open it now because my friend Kristen is

517
00:41:19.360 --> 00:41:22.480
coming over to the States and she
has been sending us pictures because she's been

518
00:41:22.480 --> 00:41:29.320
buying some of these to bring fir
Us because we ate so much tube cheese

519
00:41:29.559 --> 00:41:32.760
that he ran out in the shop
cube cheese. You et tube cheese,

520
00:41:34.039 --> 00:41:39.480
cube cheese and for British people.
It's basically dairy lee but in a tube.

521
00:41:40.639 --> 00:41:45.360
Wait, what is that? Like? What did you just say it's

522
00:41:45.360 --> 00:41:52.679
just a type of cheese, like
a soft cheese cheese. Well, no,

523
00:41:54.199 --> 00:41:58.480
but I assume it's similar. But
because it's European, it doesn't kill

524
00:41:58.559 --> 00:42:00.920
my insides like American. Yeah,
I'm gonna say it's probably real. It's

525
00:42:00.960 --> 00:42:05.519
coming in harrisalt Can and so yeah, so then I don't need that.

526
00:42:05.639 --> 00:42:07.719
Yeah, I'll just I'll just huff
my easy cheese instead. Not being funny.

527
00:42:07.800 --> 00:42:13.639
We may have just drank a lot
of wine, had some weed and

528
00:42:13.800 --> 00:42:25.480
just eight cheese that Danish summer camp
Danish chef cheese spread natural flavor. There

529
00:42:25.599 --> 00:42:30.920
was a garlic one. I think, yeah, real, I'm just I'm

530
00:42:30.000 --> 00:42:34.079
just eating this. Do this it
looks great. Yeah, that looks real.

531
00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:37.719
We we looked into importing it,
but we'd have to pay a lot

532
00:42:37.840 --> 00:42:42.559
of money. So if anyone has
a hookup for this cheese, let me

533
00:42:42.599 --> 00:42:47.440
know. Chef cub yep. Okay, all right, I have a couple

534
00:42:47.519 --> 00:42:51.559
of movies that I think fit together, and then I have another batch.

535
00:42:51.559 --> 00:42:54.199
I'll do that the next time around. Spider Man Across the Universe Across the

536
00:42:54.239 --> 00:43:00.800
Spider Verse and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Mutant Mayhem. The Turtles Mutant Maam

537
00:43:00.920 --> 00:43:05.400
was very surprising how good it was, very entertaining. I enjoyed it,

538
00:43:05.440 --> 00:43:08.960
the kids loved it, and it's
like it just has a really good style,

539
00:43:09.079 --> 00:43:14.000
a ton of great energy, and
then it does it kind of tries

540
00:43:14.039 --> 00:43:16.480
to capture the magic of the Spider
Verse movies, and yeah, nothing's going

541
00:43:16.559 --> 00:43:21.119
to quite reach that level. That's
fine. It like definitely should be lauded

542
00:43:21.159 --> 00:43:24.840
for where it does get to.
It's just high quality storytelling and it feels

543
00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:28.519
like it respects the material, even
though I'm like, personally, I'm like,

544
00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:30.199
I don't really I like the Teenage
Mutan Ninja Turtles. I don't need

545
00:43:30.239 --> 00:43:32.599
them to be respected. So to
see someone come in and be like,

546
00:43:32.639 --> 00:43:36.159
no, we love these characters and
we're gonna treat them right, it's like,

547
00:43:36.159 --> 00:43:38.159
oh, yeah, I guess you
really can tell awesome stories with these

548
00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:43.039
characters. That's awesome. And then
Across the Spider Verse is somehow better than

549
00:43:43.039 --> 00:43:45.760
the first Spider Verse movie. That's
like surprising that it is that way.

550
00:43:46.360 --> 00:43:52.880
Every new character they introduce is fantastic. The stakes they set up for Miles,

551
00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:55.360
and the sort of him trying to
figure out what's going on was very

552
00:43:55.480 --> 00:44:00.320
entertaining. And then the action is
just so beautiful because every time these camearacters

553
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:04.159
are interacting with one another, you're
seeing all these clashes of styles, and

554
00:44:04.199 --> 00:44:08.239
those styles obviously represent character traits,
and it's it's just having like so boldly

555
00:44:08.360 --> 00:44:13.400
visualized someone still feels subtle and really
like it's done with a deft hand.

556
00:44:13.960 --> 00:44:19.039
Just really great storytelling. Yeah,
I can't believe we did that. Yeah

557
00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:22.039
right, like good poor things and
that. How do we do all that?

558
00:44:22.159 --> 00:44:25.360
How do we do that? Yep? Really impressive, mister beckl Our

559
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:30.320
next thing on your list? Oh
for fuck? Okay, let's see.

560
00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:34.679
Let me just skip over all the
gross body horror that was on my list.

561
00:44:35.559 --> 00:44:46.920
That's fine, okay. Number twelve
on my list is dispensaries. New

562
00:44:47.000 --> 00:44:53.480
Jersey passed the recreational marijuana law a
few years back, and only recently have

563
00:44:53.639 --> 00:44:59.239
we started to take advantage of this
new legislation. And let me tell you,

564
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:06.519
it's pretty fucking great. And I
assume it's bringing in tons of tax

565
00:45:06.559 --> 00:45:09.119
dollars. I don't know, I
don't claim to know, and I'm not

566
00:45:09.280 --> 00:45:13.960
about to research whether or not it
is, but I do think it's a

567
00:45:14.000 --> 00:45:17.039
long time coming. I can't believe
I had to turn forty fucking years old

568
00:45:17.119 --> 00:45:22.920
before marijuana would be legalized where I
live, thank you. Uh, and

569
00:45:23.079 --> 00:45:29.760
no, I think I think it's
been an interesting experience, especially with you

570
00:45:29.800 --> 00:45:36.599
know, like bringing Stacey to reverse
dispensary ever was a really fun and hilarious

571
00:45:36.599 --> 00:45:40.239
experience. And uh, you know, I still think it has a lot

572
00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:46.639
of normalizing to do and to achieve, but I think it's pretty great now.

573
00:45:46.840 --> 00:45:53.199
So I know, congratulation some low
hanging fruit, I'm aware, but

574
00:45:53.800 --> 00:46:00.199
Dispenser is number number eighteen on my
list. There we go. Oh was

575
00:46:00.280 --> 00:46:06.519
that that's what I thought? The
next thing on my list? I believe.

576
00:46:06.760 --> 00:46:09.360
Yeah, this is the last like
TV show or film on my my

577
00:46:09.440 --> 00:46:17.639
little top ten here beef from Netflix
early on Steven Jesus Christ. It is

578
00:46:17.679 --> 00:46:23.119
like a fever dream of anger the
whole time. And I think it just

579
00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:31.599
properly demonstrates how amazing Steven Jun is
as an actor, so it absolutely shows

580
00:46:31.719 --> 00:46:36.920
off his range. It is unfair. Also, the show got me to

581
00:46:37.400 --> 00:46:42.639
try again for the first time in
literally decades, the shitty long chicken sandwich

582
00:46:42.679 --> 00:46:45.599
from Burger King. Let me tell
you it has not changed. It is

583
00:46:45.719 --> 00:46:52.960
just a brick of sodium correct.
And I felt terrible afterwards, But yeah,

584
00:46:52.000 --> 00:46:57.440
beef, and I'm so glad that
they're getting their flowers in this award

585
00:46:57.519 --> 00:47:02.400
season for it also like amazing to
see Asian Americans winning big in these big

586
00:47:02.400 --> 00:47:07.679
awards and representation matters. They mentioned
several times the Filipinos helping them in jail.

587
00:47:07.679 --> 00:47:08.599
And let me tell you, if
I ever got locked up Steven j

588
00:47:09.159 --> 00:47:13.199
I'd help you in jail. Hell, yeah, there we go. I'm

589
00:47:13.199 --> 00:47:15.840
not Filipino, but i'd help you. There we go. TAM's horary,

590
00:47:16.280 --> 00:47:20.639
Yeah yeah, Pakistani is a South
Asian Filipinos. Yeah, there we go.

591
00:47:21.000 --> 00:47:23.760
Tailor, next thing on your list? Have you ever looked at the

592
00:47:23.800 --> 00:47:35.880
grime underneath your fingernails? I'm kidding, I'm kidding. I was gonna actually

593
00:47:36.239 --> 00:47:39.480
give a shout out to a YouTube
channel that I really really have been enjoying

594
00:47:40.559 --> 00:47:45.559
a lot. It's not I mean, it's fairly popular, it's got one

595
00:47:45.639 --> 00:47:50.280
hundred thousand subscribers, but it is. It gave me something that I really

596
00:47:50.280 --> 00:47:57.039
really wanted and needed, which is
more Soul's law. And it's a channel

597
00:47:57.079 --> 00:48:05.000
called The Brothers Code, and they
effectively do what many others do and they

598
00:48:05.079 --> 00:48:10.239
just do like law videos, but
they go like extremely in depth like they

599
00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:16.119
are. For example, they have
a an Elder Ring ending video which is

600
00:48:16.159 --> 00:48:22.000
two hours long. They have the
complete story of Dark Souls three which is

601
00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:27.280
four and a half hours long.
And what they do is they don't just

602
00:48:27.360 --> 00:48:31.159
like talk about you know and then
this happened and that happened. They rewrite

603
00:48:31.400 --> 00:48:37.000
the story, and they rewrite the
story and their narration of it into a

604
00:48:37.079 --> 00:48:42.800
story in itself, so they almost
like present this whole kind of like story

605
00:48:42.800 --> 00:48:45.519
of Dark Souls, Dark Cel's two
Dark Cells three, Secure Old Blood Born

606
00:48:45.840 --> 00:48:51.239
even Last of Us, but as
narrators of that story and also explore and

607
00:48:52.559 --> 00:48:55.480
explain parts of the story that others
may not focus in on. But I've

608
00:48:55.480 --> 00:49:01.320
been using I've been listening to that
the Dogs are Free on especially pretty much

609
00:49:01.360 --> 00:49:06.840
every night for the last year and
a half two years, because it is

610
00:49:06.920 --> 00:49:10.559
just like the they also have a
quite a unique voice. There's two there's

611
00:49:10.760 --> 00:49:15.159
two people who narrate it, which
I assume are brothers because it's called the

612
00:49:15.159 --> 00:49:19.880
Brothers Code, but who knows,
Maybe I'm wrong, And They have very

613
00:49:20.519 --> 00:49:23.199
interesting voices in the same way that
a Varti has this like very deep and

614
00:49:23.280 --> 00:49:28.559
like basic voice. These guys have
like a tenor and a tone and a

615
00:49:28.679 --> 00:49:32.440
pitch to the and the cadence to
the way they deliver that is at times

616
00:49:32.679 --> 00:49:38.800
very strange but also like weirdly compelling
to listen to. But yeah, it's

617
00:49:38.880 --> 00:49:43.039
it is a channel that I adore
like and honestly, I can tell you,

618
00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:46.280
like I maybe I only watch the
the From stuff they do. They

619
00:49:46.280 --> 00:49:52.920
also have stuff like uh, stuff
about foreignor and and stuff like that,

620
00:49:52.000 --> 00:49:59.960
but I'm specifically focused on the the
From Soft so they have the complete Demon.

621
00:50:00.079 --> 00:50:02.519
So the latest video was the Demon
Soul's story explained, They've got the

622
00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:07.400
Elder Ring ending. The Elder Ring
story explained, They've got Securo, Dark

623
00:50:07.480 --> 00:50:12.320
Soul's one, two and three,
blood Born Assassas, Schreud Valhalla and the

624
00:50:12.400 --> 00:50:15.079
Last of Us. I can't recommend
The Dark Souls three one enough. It

625
00:50:15.199 --> 00:50:19.840
is four hours, but I've seen
it maybe thirty or forty times over and

626
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:23.360
over again, and it is it's
fantastic. Love it, Love it,

627
00:50:23.440 --> 00:50:27.639
Lucy. I know that you have
a heart out I have got I got

628
00:50:27.679 --> 00:50:30.840
a quick one that I can't believe
hasn't come up yet. Succession season four.

629
00:50:31.719 --> 00:50:40.519
Hey, Like, I honestly cannot
believe that they pulled it off.

630
00:50:42.280 --> 00:50:45.840
I was so not worried. I
just think when a show has been that

631
00:50:46.039 --> 00:50:52.280
consistently good. I don't think there's
a single def episode of Succession. And

632
00:50:52.360 --> 00:50:57.480
I was really really concerned with how
it would like. I really didn't want

633
00:50:57.519 --> 00:51:00.480
it to drop the ball at the
end. And we would do like so

634
00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:05.639
me, Tam and our friends Andrew
and Joey, we would do weekly watch

635
00:51:05.679 --> 00:51:10.559
parties and we would also then watch
Succession, but then we would watch it

636
00:51:10.639 --> 00:51:15.400
started out by watching Pride and Prejudice
and we would just watch loads of costume

637
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:22.199
dramas, so we're gonna through a
bunch of them. But I loved it.

638
00:51:22.440 --> 00:51:24.199
I'm so happy with that ending.
I'm not going to spoil it in

639
00:51:24.239 --> 00:51:29.760
case anyone hasn't seen it yet,
but I think all the performances are so

640
00:51:29.760 --> 00:51:35.119
so strong. I hated and loved
every single character. There was so many

641
00:51:35.199 --> 00:51:42.679
funny moments. Everything was tense and
emotional, and I don't know jack shit

642
00:51:42.719 --> 00:51:44.719
about business, but I was like, oh my god, I can't believe,

643
00:51:44.840 --> 00:51:46.679
can't believe the Maxim the Max and
Deal, you know, all this

644
00:51:46.760 --> 00:51:52.199
kind of stuff. It pulled me
into this world and everyone in it was

645
00:51:52.800 --> 00:51:57.760
disgusting and how they act and how
they behave and how they treat even the

646
00:51:57.760 --> 00:52:01.039
ones that they are supposed to love, and I would so enthralled. But

647
00:52:01.119 --> 00:52:07.440
the whole thing, the ending,
wonderful, the music beautiful. I really

648
00:52:07.480 --> 00:52:12.599
want to go and rewatch Peep Show
now because it's Jesse Armstrong and yeah,

649
00:52:12.679 --> 00:52:16.599
similar similar to Beef Glad they're getting
the flowers like Kieran Culkin. Oh yeah,

650
00:52:16.679 --> 00:52:21.800
my god. He absolutely crushed it, and so did the rest of

651
00:52:21.800 --> 00:52:27.880
the cast. But yeah, Karen
Colkin, damn Succession season four. I've

652
00:52:30.119 --> 00:52:34.599
I got a dip, so I'm
I'll stop my recording and gave you my

653
00:52:34.679 --> 00:52:45.360
love. Goodbye everyone, Bye Lucy, Bye Lucy. Everyone she says bye,

654
00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:53.400
I mean all right, I'm glad
she's boys drag see see see you

655
00:52:53.480 --> 00:53:00.599
are that character tam Oh, I
knew it. My point into it,

656
00:53:00.039 --> 00:53:05.400
Lean into the dark Side. On
the Netflix streaming service, there's a movie

657
00:53:05.400 --> 00:53:10.960
called Extraction too, uh what,
and it's it's a sequel to a movie

658
00:53:10.960 --> 00:53:15.880
called Extraction that I've never seen,
but I saw a clip of Extraction too.

659
00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:17.360
No, no, no, don't
do that. Don't do that.

660
00:53:19.159 --> 00:53:21.480
I've said a clip of Extraction two. We're like, here, we're gonna

661
00:53:21.519 --> 00:53:23.360
have like a twenty minute fight scene
that's uncut. I'm like, okay,

662
00:53:23.440 --> 00:53:30.760
I'll check that out, and that
movie rips it rules. It is likely

663
00:53:30.840 --> 00:53:34.760
that one not stop sequence actually is
amazing. It's like if Call of Duty

664
00:53:34.800 --> 00:53:38.239
came to life. But it was
also really good. It's it's such a

665
00:53:38.280 --> 00:53:42.760
fun time. It's a not like
NonStop action. You'll just you'll be like,

666
00:53:42.760 --> 00:53:45.960
I can't believe that they're gonna still
have this guy actually going in this

667
00:53:45.039 --> 00:53:47.159
scene. He should be dead.
And then you're like, I don't I

668
00:53:47.159 --> 00:53:51.400
don't care either, because it's just
every time he punches somebody, it's so

669
00:53:51.440 --> 00:53:54.760
exciting. Uh. It's up there
for me with like Commando and stuff at

670
00:53:54.760 --> 00:53:58.639
this point where it's like, this
is going to be an all time action

671
00:53:58.760 --> 00:54:00.039
movie that I'm going going to read
it for the rest of my life.

672
00:54:00.440 --> 00:54:05.320
It's it's good. I recommend everyone
watch it. If you like the action

673
00:54:05.400 --> 00:54:07.960
scenes from John any of the John
Wick films, you'll like Extraction. Yeah.

674
00:54:07.960 --> 00:54:10.079
And for me, like the barrier
of entry was so much lower than

675
00:54:10.079 --> 00:54:12.960
a John Wick where John looks like, hey, you got to care about

676
00:54:12.960 --> 00:54:15.159
this lor if you're gonna care about
any of this fighting, and I'm just

677
00:54:15.159 --> 00:54:16.719
like, I just can't. I'm
sorry. And then extraction two was like,

678
00:54:16.760 --> 00:54:22.960
no, here's just some dumb ass
shit. Watch this Jeff Beckler running

679
00:54:22.960 --> 00:54:29.360
out of stuff here. Oh,
I'm gonna this just finished up just in

680
00:54:29.400 --> 00:54:32.559
time for the end of twenty twenty
three to make the list. I talk

681
00:54:32.639 --> 00:54:37.719
about this program a decent amount,
but maybe not that much. I just

682
00:54:37.760 --> 00:54:42.519
want to give a shout out to
Letter Kenny. I don't know if anyone

683
00:54:42.719 --> 00:54:46.679
checks it out or what I believe. They just finished there. What was

684
00:54:46.679 --> 00:54:51.159
the Canadians was, Oh, that
was a Canadian SoundBite. No, no,

685
00:54:51.199 --> 00:54:53.079
that was uh no, No,
that was some friends saying, who

686
00:54:53.519 --> 00:54:57.000
I don't know who Letter Kenny is. He was about to explain it,

687
00:54:57.079 --> 00:55:01.320
Tam. Yeah. No, TAM's
just like in Suffer Bully bully Ish,

688
00:55:01.480 --> 00:55:08.239
is he not? So? Yeah, it's a It's thanks. It's a

689
00:55:08.280 --> 00:55:16.639
Canadian show about these sort of like
hicks and hockey players and drug addicts and

690
00:55:16.719 --> 00:55:22.119
weirdos and just all around strange people. And uh. They did twelve seasons

691
00:55:22.119 --> 00:55:27.000
of the show. Which feels like
a lot of times a cross between like

692
00:55:27.559 --> 00:55:31.920
a Kevin Smith of like TV show
and a little bit right. It's just

693
00:55:31.960 --> 00:55:36.679
in a lot of fast dialogue,
a lot of inside jokes, a lot

694
00:55:36.719 --> 00:55:39.039
of like wait, why what is
going on? And then we hang out

695
00:55:39.079 --> 00:55:43.039
show. It's like people mostly people
hanging at show. Yeah, it is

696
00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:46.280
very much that it has probably a
budget in the in the quadruple digits.

697
00:55:46.719 --> 00:55:52.719
Uh. And yeah, it's just
really really fun to get into and it

698
00:55:52.840 --> 00:55:58.480
definitely developed a sort of cult following
that has afforded it. Like I said,

699
00:55:58.559 --> 00:56:04.400
twelve seasons and a couple of years
back, I went to go see

700
00:56:05.400 --> 00:56:08.039
they did like a tour and I
went to Central Jersey to watch them go

701
00:56:08.199 --> 00:56:12.960
do their show live, and it's
you could tell like it's a very fun

702
00:56:13.000 --> 00:56:16.880
club to be a part of,
uh and very much able to cultivate a

703
00:56:16.880 --> 00:56:21.280
fun little community there. So yeah, and everyone's kind of checks in on

704
00:56:21.320 --> 00:56:23.760
it ends up falling in love with
it. It seems like it's a really

705
00:56:23.800 --> 00:56:30.320
well made show, supremely likable characters, uh, and just jokes that are

706
00:56:30.559 --> 00:56:39.800
very layered and deceptively smart and really
just a lot of fun and and absolutely

707
00:56:40.119 --> 00:56:45.000
as much as I compare it to
Kevin Smith's stuff. Absolutely carve carving out

708
00:56:45.000 --> 00:56:49.360
its own kind of path in a
way that I think a lot of comedies

709
00:56:49.400 --> 00:56:52.920
can't really do. I think they
all sort of like fall into the same,

710
00:56:52.519 --> 00:56:55.960
uh, you know, bad habits
of being of of looking at the

711
00:56:57.000 --> 00:57:00.159
camera and doing other things that are
tongue in cheek, where Letter Kenny absolutely

712
00:57:00.159 --> 00:57:06.159
from a comedic standpoint, in my
opinion, just sits by itself so really

713
00:57:06.159 --> 00:57:09.119
funny stuff. Also, like you'll
watch that. You'll watch a season of

714
00:57:09.159 --> 00:57:15.320
this show and literally nothing will happen. It'll be like seven episodes and you're

715
00:57:15.360 --> 00:57:16.920
like, I don't understand what the
fuck just happened. It was just them

716
00:57:17.039 --> 00:57:21.280
talking about beer and stuff for seven
and you're like, but it's great.

717
00:57:22.119 --> 00:57:25.559
I know that's maybe not a wild
dress, but it is absolutely fun.

718
00:57:25.599 --> 00:57:30.119
They did. They have a spin
off show called Schresy, which is just

719
00:57:30.159 --> 00:57:35.480
about the lowest level of professional hockey, So if you really want to get

720
00:57:35.480 --> 00:57:38.079
into the weeds, you can enjoy
that too. That's still going while Letter

721
00:57:38.159 --> 00:57:42.719
Kenny has finished up at the NLS
year. Check it out. It's a

722
00:57:42.760 --> 00:57:46.280
lot of fun. I feel like
these people will be moving on to the

723
00:57:46.320 --> 00:57:51.440
other in some capacity. It feels
like that's what they're doing for I believe

724
00:57:51.519 --> 00:57:53.800
in the States, it's on Hulu
if you're curious. There we go.

725
00:57:54.239 --> 00:57:58.360
Next thing on my list, this
is my show and tell of the show.

726
00:57:58.480 --> 00:58:04.320
I have several actually, uh,
these are the Gestura g e s

727
00:58:04.360 --> 00:58:07.920
t u are a tongs. These
are the ten inch ones. I use

728
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:13.159
these every dang day for cooking and
eating specifically these look at those, Yeah,

729
00:58:13.480 --> 00:58:19.400
these are like exactly, uh imagine
the snacktive things that we were goofing

730
00:58:19.440 --> 00:58:22.039
about like a couple of years ago, but just giant. Uh. And

731
00:58:22.159 --> 00:58:25.000
I use these to like I said, I use these to cook. I

732
00:58:25.079 --> 00:58:32.280
use these conduct conduct spells. But
these I want to put that in my

733
00:58:32.360 --> 00:58:38.079
ear. Yeah, the ship I
could fish out with that man. I

734
00:58:38.119 --> 00:58:42.960
also have like the the six inch
version, which are a little bit tinier

735
00:58:43.000 --> 00:58:45.119
that are kind of used for plating
like in fine dining or whatever. But

736
00:58:45.800 --> 00:58:52.159
these have replaced chopsticks in my house
for some occasional meals. Emmy and I

737
00:58:52.199 --> 00:58:55.000
will do like k barbecue at the
house, or will like grill stuff up

738
00:58:55.039 --> 00:59:00.719
at the house like the pro level
koreem barbecue tongs baby exactly, and like

739
00:59:00.719 --> 00:59:04.119
you know, they're tactical enough you
can hold something delicate like chapstick and have

740
00:59:04.159 --> 00:59:07.800
no problem with it. Uh,
they're exchangable. Do you have a code

741
00:59:07.840 --> 00:59:10.760
I can use? Do you have
some sort of referral link? I wish

742
00:59:10.800 --> 00:59:15.159
I did. I got these from
a local knife store here in the Bay

743
00:59:15.199 --> 00:59:17.719
Area. But yeah, they can
pick up stuff pretty wide. You can

744
00:59:17.800 --> 00:59:22.880
like extend them just a little bit. And they're stainless steel dishwashers safe.

745
00:59:22.880 --> 00:59:27.079
I highly recommend. Yeah. Those
are they called again? Just just stirr,

746
00:59:27.920 --> 00:59:30.480
just stir them. Yeah. Yeah. Also, yeah, grub.

747
00:59:30.519 --> 00:59:32.960
They're great for eating chips. Yeah, I'm like, I need something because

748
00:59:32.960 --> 00:59:36.519
like, I really hate having dirty
fingers. It's a thing that gets to

749
00:59:36.559 --> 00:59:38.320
me. So any chips that like
has a layer of dust on it.

750
00:59:38.800 --> 00:59:42.440
Uh Yeah, I'm mostly vot those
anyhow, but sometimes you find yourself,

751
00:59:42.519 --> 00:59:45.679
Okay, I'm giving in to temptation
and now I'm like covered in chip dust

752
00:59:45.719 --> 00:59:46.760
and I hate it. Yeah.
I don't eat cheet us for that reason.

753
00:59:46.760 --> 00:59:50.199
So I'm gonna I'm gonna pick me
up some of these tongs. Great

754
00:59:50.320 --> 00:59:57.719
for uh mixing salads as well.
Damn Uh, I'm gonna kind of go

755
00:59:57.800 --> 01:00:05.480
off something that I said it earlier
and say sports, well a sports specifically,

756
01:00:05.719 --> 01:00:09.119
I'm I've always I've not been a
I'm not a big sports guy in

757
01:00:09.400 --> 01:00:14.119
when I was in the UK at
all. Like I didn't watch football or

758
01:00:14.199 --> 01:00:15.800
soccer, whatever you want to call
it. It wasn't into rugby. I

759
01:00:15.960 --> 01:00:19.880
never cared about cricket, even though
I played on a cricket team. I

760
01:00:19.920 --> 01:00:24.440
was just like not into it.
I always preferred watching American sports, and

761
01:00:25.960 --> 01:00:30.280
I watched a lot of American football, and I reached a point where I

762
01:00:30.320 --> 01:00:34.039
was like, I don't think I
like American football. It's too like broken

763
01:00:34.440 --> 01:00:37.599
stop start e And I liked the
tactical element of it and the strategy involved,

764
01:00:37.599 --> 01:00:44.000
but it wasn't for me. Basketball
was the one I always gravitated towards

765
01:00:44.199 --> 01:00:47.480
and I used to play basketball at
school, but it wasn't a popular sport.

766
01:00:47.519 --> 01:00:52.119
We just had a hoop for some
reason, and I was the one

767
01:00:52.199 --> 01:00:54.639
kid who was like trying to put
the ball for the hoop constantly. I

768
01:00:54.679 --> 01:01:00.559
was terrible, but I always had
a kind of affinity for basketball. And

769
01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:05.360
but whenever as I grew up,
they would start to have these attempts at

770
01:01:05.360 --> 01:01:07.599
the NBA coming to Europe, and
they'll be like, oh, you know,

771
01:01:07.920 --> 01:01:12.440
the Chicago Bulls are going to be
playing in London or some Wembley or

772
01:01:12.440 --> 01:01:15.119
something like that, and it would
be like so prohibitively expensive to go see

773
01:01:15.119 --> 01:01:21.119
them, and any like televised matches
would happen at like three a m.

774
01:01:21.639 --> 01:01:23.800
Four am at like absurd times.
So I just never really got into it.

775
01:01:23.719 --> 01:01:25.599
It was always one of those things
where I was like, I like,

776
01:01:27.280 --> 01:01:31.800
I enjoyed basketball when I can see
it. Having moved over here more

777
01:01:31.840 --> 01:01:37.280
recently, I've been able to actually
engage in basketball way more. And obviously

778
01:01:37.280 --> 01:01:40.400
I live in the Bay Area and
we have Golden State Warriors, who are

779
01:01:40.719 --> 01:01:45.559
you know, four time team dynasty
one of the best you know teams of

780
01:01:45.599 --> 01:01:51.800
all time, I guess, And
it helps to have a good team,

781
01:01:52.159 --> 01:01:59.119
and I have been able to go
to games a lot, and I have

782
01:01:59.159 --> 01:02:04.840
seen a great many games this season
and last season. And being able to

783
01:02:04.960 --> 01:02:09.039
follow basketball, especially Golden State Warriors, it's been a very different kind of

784
01:02:09.079 --> 01:02:13.400
experience. I've never done anything.
I listened to like go and State Warriors

785
01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:17.400
focused podcast, listen to the NBA
podcasts, I like follow people on Twitter

786
01:02:17.440 --> 01:02:22.039
who are insiders and that kind of
stuff. And it's like discovering and getting

787
01:02:22.079 --> 01:02:27.320
into a new world that feels kind
of like video games. But I have

788
01:02:27.559 --> 01:02:31.239
zero experience. I don't have like
the expertise. I don't have a you

789
01:02:31.280 --> 01:02:35.480
know, I don't have a need
to think about it in a way that

790
01:02:35.679 --> 01:02:39.000
how can I like, how do
I make commentary on this analysis? How

791
01:02:39.000 --> 01:02:42.440
will this affect my day to day? What can I take away from this?

792
01:02:43.000 --> 01:02:45.840
It's just it's just for me to
enjoy it. And I've been very

793
01:02:45.880 --> 01:02:49.960
fortunate in that, Like I have
been able to go watch matches, So

794
01:02:49.960 --> 01:02:53.079
I've seen Steph Curry play so many
times. I've seen you know, Draymond

795
01:02:53.119 --> 01:02:58.519
play. I've seen I've seen Clay
player. I've seen Wiggans player, like

796
01:02:58.559 --> 01:03:00.480
they are the local team here.
And you know, I came in at

797
01:03:00.519 --> 01:03:06.440
a time when Jordan Paul on the
Golden State Warriors was kind of like the

798
01:03:06.519 --> 01:03:08.199
new kid on the block who had
just started. He was like the latest

799
01:03:08.320 --> 01:03:10.679
entry. So I was like,
I'm new to this. Jordan Paul is

800
01:03:10.679 --> 01:03:14.000
the youngest guy they got going,
So I'm going to be a Jordan Paul

801
01:03:14.039 --> 01:03:16.119
fan. And I really enjoyed like
the flair. And then they traded him

802
01:03:16.159 --> 01:03:21.519
and he turned into complete ascid in
the Washington Wizards. But like I've been

803
01:03:21.599 --> 01:03:24.880
able to like and my favorite player
is Gary Payton, second Gary GPT,

804
01:03:25.840 --> 01:03:32.400
who's just like a nice dude and
he loves video games and he like regularly.

805
01:03:32.440 --> 01:03:36.360
He was streaming the other day Call
of Duty and his set up is

806
01:03:36.440 --> 01:03:39.440
a fucking catastrophe, and like I
was watching it, and I was very

807
01:03:39.480 --> 01:03:43.480
fortunate in that, Like he does
a lot of stuff with Ubisoft, for

808
01:03:43.519 --> 01:03:46.440
example, and our friend Yusef works
at Ubosoft, and my former roommate Chaster,

809
01:03:46.519 --> 01:03:52.440
he works at Ubisoft. Numerous members
of the game Former Game Spot team

810
01:03:52.559 --> 01:03:54.719
work at Ubisoft, and they were
like, yo, GP two is coming

811
01:03:54.760 --> 01:03:57.800
in. Do you want to come
and say hi? And I like gone

812
01:03:57.880 --> 01:04:00.719
to meet GP too a few weeks
ago. It was like insane and I

813
01:04:00.760 --> 01:04:04.559
had I almost bought my GVT jersey
and that kind of stuff, and it's

814
01:04:04.599 --> 01:04:09.360
like it was it's like I said, it's a different world. And I

815
01:04:09.519 --> 01:04:14.280
love like watching basketball, and I
love watching you know. I think it's

816
01:04:14.280 --> 01:04:17.239
such a fascinating sport and like the
skill of it, and also culturally it's

817
01:04:17.320 --> 01:04:23.320
it's something that aligns with me way
more I think most other sports they focus

818
01:04:23.400 --> 01:04:27.880
on things that I have eithern no
interest in or I can't engage in,

819
01:04:27.920 --> 01:04:32.960
like soccer football, it's a lot
about like it's very woven into British culture,

820
01:04:33.000 --> 01:04:39.400
which itself also is built around pubs
and drinking and yeah, certain things

821
01:04:39.400 --> 01:04:42.639
that I just cannot I don't drink. I don't like particularly enjoy going to

822
01:04:42.679 --> 01:04:46.760
pubs on my own unless I'm around
like close friends. Baseball is the same,

823
01:04:46.800 --> 01:04:50.360
American football is the same where it's
like you go to eat food which

824
01:04:50.400 --> 01:04:55.480
I can't eat because it's usually not
catered to my you know, dietary needs.

825
01:04:55.599 --> 01:04:59.199
I don't drink. Same with like
American football and that kind of stuff.

826
01:04:59.360 --> 01:05:04.679
Basketball kind of like cultural connection isn't
specifically food or like drinking. It's

827
01:05:05.239 --> 01:05:09.480
hip hop, it's sneaker culture.
It is, you know, that kind

828
01:05:09.519 --> 01:05:13.679
of stuff. So when I go
there and like I realized that I was

829
01:05:13.719 --> 01:05:15.480
in the right place and this was
the thing for me. When I went

830
01:05:15.519 --> 01:05:20.800
to one of my first Golden State
Warriors games and the entire stadium was just

831
01:05:20.880 --> 01:05:25.400
filled with the music of E forty
and I was like, that's yeah,

832
01:05:25.480 --> 01:05:28.400
that's a beautiful thing, like beautiful, yeah, and like hearing blow the

833
01:05:28.400 --> 01:05:32.000
whistle and the San Francisco anthem and
too Short is playing, and I'm like,

834
01:05:32.199 --> 01:05:38.480
this is stuff that I grew up
listening to with no connection to basketball,

835
01:05:38.639 --> 01:05:41.280
no connection to America. I just
loved hip hop. I just loved

836
01:05:41.360 --> 01:05:45.360
rappers. And being able to now
combine that with sports and it being such

837
01:05:45.400 --> 01:05:49.400
a natural fit. I feel like
this is the thing that connects with me.

838
01:05:49.480 --> 01:05:55.480
And I've been like really really enjoying
like basketball, and I know that

839
01:05:55.519 --> 01:05:59.320
I'm like into it because the Golden
State Warriors right now are absolutely dog shit

840
01:06:00.159 --> 01:06:03.800
off. Yet they're in a bad
spot, like Steph isn't playing well,

841
01:06:04.719 --> 01:06:10.880
Clay's not playing well, Draymond got
suspended after he fucking Haymaker, another player,

842
01:06:11.719 --> 01:06:15.000
and then they've been through tragedy as
well now, like the assistant coach

843
01:06:15.119 --> 01:06:17.800
had a heart attack a couple of
days ago and like that canceled two games

844
01:06:17.840 --> 01:06:23.000
and I'm still like engaged in it, and either highs and lows of sport

845
01:06:23.039 --> 01:06:26.360
are now hitting with me, and
I'm like desperate for them to just like

846
01:06:26.519 --> 01:06:30.360
pull it together. Trade deadlines coming
up, and I'm like, please get

847
01:06:30.679 --> 01:06:32.719
get someone who can help us turn
this around. Like my favorite player,

848
01:06:32.760 --> 01:06:38.559
like Gary Payton, was out for
injury. He came back for one game

849
01:06:38.639 --> 01:06:42.719
and got injured in that game and
has been and I've just been like fuck,

850
01:06:42.840 --> 01:06:45.039
I've been like he was back for
a hot minute, and like when

851
01:06:45.039 --> 01:06:48.039
he was back, he was incredible. He does this thing in which I

852
01:06:48.119 --> 01:06:53.519
adore, Like every basketball player when
they like dunk on someone, they always

853
01:06:53.519 --> 01:06:57.199
do like the flex where they're standing
over them or like something like that.

854
01:06:57.440 --> 01:07:02.360
Gary Payton the second he dunks someone
lands, turns to them, looks him

855
01:07:02.360 --> 01:07:09.920
in the eye and just scratches his
head like this as if he's like confused

856
01:07:09.920 --> 01:07:14.559
about what happened, and it's just
because it's anime to you. Yeah,

857
01:07:14.639 --> 01:07:17.440
I mean, like he's strolling and
he's like got a smile on his face

858
01:07:17.480 --> 01:07:21.400
and like he's just like scratching his
head like did you see that? And

859
01:07:23.159 --> 01:07:25.679
that is so funny. And right
now we've got like too, We've got

860
01:07:25.719 --> 01:07:30.400
a bunch of rookies like Pajamski,
who's like clearly he's like Steph Curry's understudy

861
01:07:30.719 --> 01:07:34.519
and and he's like incredible. He's
so much fun to watch. We've got

862
01:07:34.519 --> 01:07:40.599
Trace Jackson Davis is like a talk
player who they haven't had before, and

863
01:07:40.639 --> 01:07:45.440
he's like defending and he's working with
like Dario Saich who they call Super Dario,

864
01:07:45.559 --> 01:07:47.920
and it's like it's such a I'm
very I'm very excited. I have

865
01:07:48.079 --> 01:07:50.920
like something like this and it's someone
and it's something I share with, like

866
01:07:50.960 --> 01:07:56.159
I loved one of mine and and
it's and it's so so enjoyable. Love

867
01:07:56.199 --> 01:07:59.159
it, love it. I cool
think about sports like being able to surrender,

868
01:07:59.280 --> 01:08:00.960
surrender yourself to like it because you
have no control over it. So

869
01:08:01.039 --> 01:08:04.360
and I like that because it's like
then when it when things go well,

870
01:08:04.400 --> 01:08:08.599
that's great. Even when things go
bad, It's like I'm sticking with this

871
01:08:08.639 --> 01:08:11.159
team. But I just feel like
it's not I don't have to have like

872
01:08:11.199 --> 01:08:15.360
this professional coolness like separation. I
have it with like some sports or with

873
01:08:15.519 --> 01:08:17.800
games. I could just fully lean
into it and get really emotional about it.

874
01:08:17.840 --> 01:08:23.000
And I love that. Yeah,
Yes, I'm up next, Okay.

875
01:08:23.439 --> 01:08:26.880
I I like Tetris, like I
like the BlackBerry movie, and those

876
01:08:26.880 --> 01:08:28.520
are some other things I wanted to
mention, but I'm gonna go. I'm

877
01:08:28.520 --> 01:08:31.319
gonna go with Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer,
actually is it feels like a basic bitch

878
01:08:31.359 --> 01:08:35.039
answer at this point, but it
really did hit me, especially that the

879
01:08:35.079 --> 01:08:42.239
last moment that recontextualizes the whole movie. Uh. And I'm gonna spoil it

880
01:08:42.239 --> 01:08:44.680
because it's still going to be very
effective even if you haven't seen it.

881
01:08:44.680 --> 01:08:47.079
It's not actually gonna hurt it in
any real way. But the idea that

882
01:08:47.439 --> 01:08:53.359
this person that has been hounding Oppenheimer
for all these years and has basically ruined

883
01:08:53.359 --> 01:08:59.600
his life did so because of a
petty misunderstanding that because he's very myopic,

884
01:08:59.640 --> 01:09:01.920
any think all these things were about
him and nothing was ever about him.

885
01:09:02.000 --> 01:09:04.359
No one ever tried to make him
look bad or do anything bad to him.

886
01:09:04.439 --> 01:09:09.760
But he couldn't see past himself because
he's a myopic politician. And this

887
01:09:09.880 --> 01:09:14.520
story is about how Oppenheimer made the
bomb and had to hand it over to

888
01:09:14.560 --> 01:09:17.760
people like that, and and and
and he never even considered that there are

889
01:09:17.800 --> 01:09:21.680
people like that out there and that
they were would be the ones responsible for

890
01:09:23.279 --> 01:09:28.399
controlling the bomb after him, and
it's and and having Einstein and Oppheimer have

891
01:09:28.479 --> 01:09:30.439
this moment where they're like, we
lit the we lit the atmosphere on fire,

892
01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:33.479
and we have to hand it over
to these people and and just we

893
01:09:33.520 --> 01:09:36.439
can't do anything about it. Now
it's out of our control and we're helpless

894
01:09:36.680 --> 01:09:41.840
and the horror and they're on their
faces and everything that leads up to it's

895
01:09:41.840 --> 01:09:45.399
like, it is a beautiful thing
to be able to understand physics and the

896
01:09:45.439 --> 01:09:48.039
quantum world enough to be able to
make this thing, and it's a really

897
01:09:48.359 --> 01:09:51.880
sad thing to not understand humans enough
to know what that's going to mean.

898
01:09:53.279 --> 01:09:56.159
And the movie does a great job
of capturing those two elements and putting them

899
01:09:56.199 --> 01:10:00.279
together and making you reckon with it. Whoa, Jeff, here's the music

900
01:10:00.319 --> 01:10:04.399
of the universe. I heard the
music. That's that's Yeah, that's that's

901
01:10:04.439 --> 01:10:09.359
powerful stuff. Good movie. I
guess I gotta see that, huh.

902
01:10:10.079 --> 01:10:13.279
I recommend it? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I mean you like I

903
01:10:13.319 --> 01:10:15.920
know what I'm getting. You like
Nolan, right, yeah, yeah,

904
01:10:16.079 --> 01:10:19.079
I've only I've maybe made. I
don't like his I don't like war,

905
01:10:19.279 --> 01:10:23.319
so I don't. I had I
didn't see the Dunkirk one, so I

906
01:10:23.359 --> 01:10:28.000
don't either. Backalat and it took
a little bit of convincing from uh Emmy

907
01:10:28.119 --> 01:10:30.760
to for me to watch this,
but we sat down and watched it and

908
01:10:30.239 --> 01:10:34.319
instantly fell in love. Yeah,
I'm not like I I don't think I'll

909
01:10:34.319 --> 01:10:39.159
watch Dunkirk, but I will watch
this. It's important. This this,

910
01:10:39.159 --> 01:10:42.720
this feels like something important that should
be shown in like high school and ship

911
01:10:43.800 --> 01:10:46.560
from what right? I feel like
the lessons it has to teach are worth

912
01:10:47.000 --> 01:10:51.319
hearing. And yeah, I guess
it's depressing, right, because it's like,

913
01:10:51.680 --> 01:10:58.039
yeah, it's depressing because you know
Oppenheimer. I again, I haven't

914
01:10:58.039 --> 01:11:00.079
seen this movie, but you know, knowing what I know about open Emerts,

915
01:11:00.119 --> 01:11:04.880
it's sort of like you're you're cursed
with knowing that like your uh work

916
01:11:05.199 --> 01:11:10.800
will ultimately destroy the world yep,
probably probably, And the way that he

917
01:11:10.840 --> 01:11:12.720
carries that, in the way he
wants to be punished for it, and

918
01:11:12.760 --> 01:11:15.119
all that way that all that stuff
is illustrated. It's really well done.

919
01:11:15.199 --> 01:11:18.399
Think about weight, that's some weight. Think about the person that invented the

920
01:11:18.439 --> 01:11:27.319
microphone because they are in it inadvertently
responsible for so many shitty podcasts. Yeah,

921
01:11:27.359 --> 01:11:30.720
that's a that's another thing. Huh, of course, I don't know.

922
01:11:30.920 --> 01:11:33.359
You got another thing on your list, bud uh. Let's see the

923
01:11:33.479 --> 01:11:43.479
Curse, the Curses fucking bananas.
I'm watching that now, but it's I'm

924
01:11:43.479 --> 01:11:46.239
almost done, and I know I
had the end kind of spoiled and I

925
01:11:46.319 --> 01:11:49.560
know what happened, and I'm just
sort of like, wow, that's that's

926
01:11:49.600 --> 01:11:55.199
cool. But where were we letting
the Saftes do all this stuff? Why

927
01:11:55.199 --> 01:11:58.239
are we giving them cameras? Like? What are we doing? Can?

928
01:11:58.680 --> 01:12:00.840
Like? I love how like what
goes through the mind of the Safte brothers

929
01:12:00.840 --> 01:12:03.920
where they're like, hey, you
know that feeling when you're like driving to

930
01:12:04.000 --> 01:12:08.000
the dentist on your way to get
a root canal? What if we made

931
01:12:08.119 --> 01:12:11.079
all of our movies feel like that
all the time? Would would be great?

932
01:12:11.239 --> 01:12:15.760
And the feelings? And Hollywood's like, we love this idea, we

933
01:12:15.880 --> 01:12:18.239
endorse it. Here's a bunch of
money. Make whatever you have on your

934
01:12:18.279 --> 01:12:21.279
mind. What else do I have
on my list? Because we're not going

935
01:12:21.319 --> 01:12:24.840
to go much longer, right,
I'm just gonna put it. Yeah,

936
01:12:25.239 --> 01:12:28.920
I did. Oh, I likes
I like this band sleep Token. That

937
01:12:29.039 --> 01:12:33.000
was I just I discovered early last
year. They've been a lot of fun

938
01:12:33.680 --> 01:12:38.960
Vaka Martin Vacca, Martini's I've gotten
to do it a big way there.

939
01:12:38.960 --> 01:12:43.960
Oh yeah, that's great. And
and and live music, go see live

940
01:12:44.039 --> 01:12:48.439
music. I finally went to a
bunch of shows in twenty three and uh

941
01:12:48.880 --> 01:12:51.760
it was. It was great.
If you feel comfortable going to see live

942
01:12:51.840 --> 01:12:54.880
music, go see live music.
There we go, There we go.

943
01:12:55.199 --> 01:12:57.640
Yeah, I'll just do a round
up with my last couple of things as

944
01:12:57.680 --> 01:13:04.000
well. Next thing another chantelle shin
Ramen Light Folks. I'm a big fan

945
01:13:04.079 --> 01:13:09.000
of shin ram and I like a
little bit of spice, the problem being

946
01:13:09.119 --> 01:13:13.600
the red kind and then the black
label ones got a little bit carbs,

947
01:13:13.640 --> 01:13:15.680
and you're boy's trying to watch his
way and be a little bit better for

948
01:13:15.760 --> 01:13:21.920
himself. This has overall less calories, less carbs because of the noodling process.

949
01:13:23.079 --> 01:13:29.199
I believe these are air dried instead
of fried noodles or whatever, same

950
01:13:29.239 --> 01:13:31.319
exact flavor. The noodles are just
a little bit of a different texture.

951
01:13:31.600 --> 01:13:36.199
But if you're sodium conscious, carb
conscious, calorie conscious, definitely recommend shin

952
01:13:36.279 --> 01:13:41.000
Ramen Light. Asian supermarkets most of
the big box ones will have them,

953
01:13:41.000 --> 01:13:45.119
but I think you can also get
these online. The other thing more cooking

954
01:13:45.159 --> 01:13:47.239
stuff. I didn't want to bring
over the whole set, but Yo,

955
01:13:47.960 --> 01:13:54.119
I moved recently and I realized I
need new pots and pans, and I

956
01:13:54.159 --> 01:13:56.520
want to live with this person for
an extended period of time. Because I

957
01:13:56.600 --> 01:14:00.960
love her, so let's get virtually
life proof pants. I wound up getting

958
01:14:00.960 --> 01:14:05.479
an all clad stainless steel pot and
pants set. These boys stainless steel,

959
01:14:05.560 --> 01:14:11.479
heavy fucking duty. It is a
giant learning curve to cook with stainless steel

960
01:14:11.479 --> 01:14:15.479
pots and pans. You gotta let
that ship heat up for so fucking long,

961
01:14:15.720 --> 01:14:17.560
and I still mess up eggs.
I kind of miss Teflon, but

962
01:14:17.680 --> 01:14:23.319
I don't because I want these to
last forever. Because I've seen these go.

963
01:14:23.680 --> 01:14:27.760
People have had all clad stainless steel
pot and pants sets for like forty

964
01:14:27.760 --> 01:14:30.920
plus years, so it's something I
eventually maybe want to pass down to my

965
01:14:30.000 --> 01:14:33.399
kids in the future. And uh, the last thing on my list,

966
01:14:34.119 --> 01:14:40.880
Tammi muted. I just love the
idea, like the son before I go,

967
01:14:42.159 --> 01:14:46.560
I have some pots and pans,
and then they'll be like, you

968
01:14:47.039 --> 01:14:54.159
got the good house? Can I
have the house? We live in San

969
01:14:54.159 --> 01:15:03.720
Francisco. I gave them my land
to Michaelime Michael. And the last thing

970
01:15:03.720 --> 01:15:09.199
on my list is in twenty twenty
three, I kept this on the DL

971
01:15:09.720 --> 01:15:12.119
for a little bit, but then
I post about on my Instagram. I

972
01:15:12.159 --> 01:15:16.840
took an acting class for like nine
months and I had to pause just because

973
01:15:16.840 --> 01:15:21.159
stuff got really busy here at GBHQ. But I highly recommend it even if

974
01:15:21.199 --> 01:15:25.960
you're not looking to become an actor
at all. It really teaches you a

975
01:15:26.119 --> 01:15:30.399
lot about human interactions and about being
human. Part of the reason why last

976
01:15:30.479 --> 01:15:32.880
year I went through an arc of
being obsessed with Spider Man two is because

977
01:15:32.960 --> 01:15:38.479
one of the teachers was the guy
that says you stressed up bore from Spider

978
01:15:38.520 --> 01:15:43.279
Man two. He was also the
cow Zone guy in Seinfeld. But yeah,

979
01:15:43.319 --> 01:15:47.560
it was really really neat to get
to meet a whole bunch of different

980
01:15:47.560 --> 01:15:54.279
people and just be around other artists
wanting to create induce stuff. Yeah.

981
01:15:54.279 --> 01:15:59.760
I just saw a great clip of
what's his Name at Ethan Hawk talking about

982
01:16:00.159 --> 01:16:02.600
acting and how a lot of great
directories used to be actors and not many

983
01:16:02.640 --> 01:16:05.399
great directories used to be stand amatographers. And it's like, that's kind of

984
01:16:05.439 --> 01:16:11.000
what making movies is, is being
able to to act and understand the the

985
01:16:11.359 --> 01:16:13.760
expressing yourself and turning that into a
work of art. And I'm like,

986
01:16:14.079 --> 01:16:16.800
that did that. I found it
very inspiring, and so hearing you say

987
01:16:16.800 --> 01:16:18.800
you've got a lot of an acting
class, I'm like, maybe I'm man

988
01:16:18.840 --> 01:16:23.359
should I do something like that.
Maybe I highly recommend it. Mostly also

989
01:16:23.439 --> 01:16:25.479
just like you know, gets you
out of your shell. And then just

990
01:16:25.520 --> 01:16:29.520
like I think, in the middle
of it, something clicked with me here

991
01:16:29.640 --> 01:16:35.520
of like, oh I feel comfortable
just being me now, and despite working

992
01:16:35.560 --> 01:16:42.680
here for six years, having that
sudden like glass breaking thing of like oh

993
01:16:42.960 --> 01:16:45.119
yeah no, I'm just me.
That's cool. Yeah, no, no,

994
01:16:45.199 --> 01:16:47.960
that's good. Tam the rest of
your lists, sir, uh so,

995
01:16:48.159 --> 01:16:54.359
I will I will follow up your
pan with some pans. I I

996
01:16:54.880 --> 01:17:00.119
got these. I think they called
carot or carote heroic is a carraway.

997
01:17:00.119 --> 01:17:06.239
Maybe I don't c a r olte
Oh never mind anyway, Yeah, these

998
01:17:06.279 --> 01:17:11.439
these non stick pans, which are
basically I'll put a link to them because

999
01:17:11.479 --> 01:17:15.520
they sound insane when you talk about
them, but they're so good. It's

1000
01:17:15.560 --> 01:17:20.439
effectively a bunch of different sized balls
that you can cook in. But you

1001
01:17:20.479 --> 01:17:28.720
get a detachable handle. Oh.
What you do is like you you like

1002
01:17:28.760 --> 01:17:30.960
it, attach it to the big
big like the deeper pan. You make

1003
01:17:31.000 --> 01:17:34.119
stuff in there, and then you
can like pick that up, put it

1004
01:17:34.159 --> 01:17:39.720
on the table just unhooked the unhooked
the handle and that becomes a serving bowl

1005
01:17:40.119 --> 01:17:42.600
and then you can attach at it
and like I looked at it and I

1006
01:17:42.640 --> 01:17:45.359
was like, this seems like a
fucking weird Instagram thing that is gonna yeah

1007
01:17:46.039 --> 01:17:50.800
dog shit. We got it and
it was really good. Since then,

1008
01:17:50.880 --> 01:17:56.800
I've bought it for two sets of
friends and they've this is awesome. Yeah.

1009
01:17:57.119 --> 01:18:00.319
Question I now, I'm a I
like pots and pans as much as

1010
01:18:00.359 --> 01:18:03.760
the next person. Well, how
are we doing with like non stick stuff?

1011
01:18:03.760 --> 01:18:06.560
Here is this legit? Like,
so far I've cooked in it,

1012
01:18:06.640 --> 01:18:13.359
nothing has stuck. We bought a
very expensive cook where about two years ago,

1013
01:18:14.039 --> 01:18:18.039
believe the brand was like Carraway or
something like that, and they promised

1014
01:18:18.079 --> 01:18:21.640
non stick. And then a year
fucking later, guess what's happening stick?

1015
01:18:21.680 --> 01:18:27.000
And guess what's happened in my eggies? I mean, I haven't had this

1016
01:18:27.039 --> 01:18:30.439
for a year, but so far
nothing has stuck. I can't tell you

1017
01:18:30.479 --> 01:18:34.439
long term over the coating works or
whatever it may be, but everyone the

1018
01:18:34.520 --> 01:18:38.520
reviews are at universally high. I
think the only thing about it is they

1019
01:18:38.640 --> 01:18:41.000
only come in white as far as
I know, so it can get like

1020
01:18:41.439 --> 01:18:44.199
if you're not careful, you can
accidentally like scratch it. But I mean,

1021
01:18:44.199 --> 01:18:46.079
like pots and pans are gonna get
scratched. Oh you're supposed to only

1022
01:18:46.159 --> 01:18:51.399
use like plastic and silicon. Ye, come on. Like the nonstick element

1023
01:18:51.439 --> 01:18:56.720
of it seems better than anything I
happened. Like, I've had tfol pans

1024
01:18:56.760 --> 01:19:00.319
stuff before that that are like non
sty and they have not been good.

1025
01:19:00.399 --> 01:19:04.279
They like get gunked up and gross
and things stick on, But this one

1026
01:19:04.319 --> 01:19:09.479
has been good. I highly recommend
this stuff, especially the actual handle,

1027
01:19:09.720 --> 01:19:11.800
like for people who might be like, oh, this looks very unsafe.

1028
01:19:11.840 --> 01:19:15.760
It's like it's like a vice.
It like clamps into place, and it's

1029
01:19:15.880 --> 01:19:21.239
really good adular, very interesting.
And then the other stuff that I have

1030
01:19:21.760 --> 01:19:29.720
is I restarted reading One Piece and
it fucking rolls. Still the coolest ship

1031
01:19:30.159 --> 01:19:33.239
happening in that In that I think
people look at One Piece and they're like,

1032
01:19:33.279 --> 01:19:38.239
oh, it's the Pirate anime.
It's it's no, it's as an

1033
01:19:38.279 --> 01:19:43.520
anime about like a a freedom fighter
and a or a series about a freedom

1034
01:19:43.560 --> 01:19:47.880
fighter and anti capitalist and like the
stuff that is actually happening in their anti

1035
01:19:47.960 --> 01:19:53.119
government, anti military, anti war, like that is what Lufy and his

1036
01:19:53.199 --> 01:20:00.680
crew are all about. It's about
it's about making a revolution happen and it

1037
01:19:59.840 --> 01:20:03.239
is. It is like one of
the smartest, coolest animes that has ever

1038
01:20:03.319 --> 01:20:08.760
existed. I think it's intimidating for
a lot of people. Yeah yeah,

1039
01:20:08.960 --> 01:20:11.279
in terms of its breadth, right, Like, I think that's what.

1040
01:20:11.359 --> 01:20:15.439
Yeah, I think it says a
lot that in recent protests that you've seen

1041
01:20:15.439 --> 01:20:19.039
the strong hat pirates, Oh yeah, flag being flown like that is that

1042
01:20:19.119 --> 01:20:23.159
says a lot about what that show
and what that series is all about.

1043
01:20:24.600 --> 01:20:30.479
And then my final thing is a
little book published by Tune and Fairweather called

1044
01:20:30.079 --> 01:20:34.640
Blood Echoes, which, as you
can probably guess, is a bloodborn.

1045
01:20:34.680 --> 01:20:39.640
They also published another one called Abistal
Archive, and it is, without a

1046
01:20:39.720 --> 01:20:43.199
doubt, the coolest book that you
will be able to buy around the from

1047
01:20:43.239 --> 01:20:45.800
software stuff. Cool. Look at
this, this is like insane. It's

1048
01:20:45.840 --> 01:20:51.119
like it's got embossed like pattern design
on it. You've got like these incredible

1049
01:20:51.239 --> 01:20:56.279
artworks. You can open it to
any page and you will see some of

1050
01:20:56.319 --> 01:20:59.239
the coolest shit you've ever seen.
Like I opened a random page there,

1051
01:20:59.520 --> 01:21:02.600
look at that work called Lady Marie. I'll pick like the paper is black

1052
01:21:04.079 --> 01:21:10.920
you, I'll pick another page and
it's a it's allread. Now that's awesome.

1053
01:21:11.439 --> 01:21:15.199
Oh shit, I'll pick another one. And we've got a Migdalar there,

1054
01:21:15.520 --> 01:21:18.720
like it is so sick. It's
like a it's a bunch of like

1055
01:21:19.920 --> 01:21:26.439
essays and in depth breakdowns about this
stuff. The I have one for Dark

1056
01:21:26.479 --> 01:21:29.760
Souls as well, which is called
the Abyssal Archive. It's just back there

1057
01:21:29.760 --> 01:21:33.560
somewhere and it is leather bound.
It is if you're a from fan,

1058
01:21:33.720 --> 01:21:36.439
if you care about any of these
games, you have to have one of

1059
01:21:36.479 --> 01:21:40.800
these, Like, it is essential
to have this. You need this because

1060
01:21:40.880 --> 01:21:44.359
it's like the kind of thing that
you will I described it as saying,

1061
01:21:44.439 --> 01:21:47.920
like it's so nice that sometimes I
feel bad touching it, right, But

1062
01:21:48.479 --> 01:21:53.479
it's one of those things where you're
just like people will be gravitating towards it

1063
01:21:53.479 --> 01:21:56.880
because they're like, what is this
book? It looks insane? But yeah,

1064
01:21:57.520 --> 01:22:00.159
that's it. Love it. Love
it. You want to finish your

1065
01:22:00.199 --> 01:22:03.760
list? Yeah, just one last
thing. My Google Pixel does this thing

1066
01:22:03.840 --> 01:22:08.000
where it answers spam calls for me, so I never even have to hear

1067
01:22:08.000 --> 01:22:12.960
my stone ring and it's it rules. But basically I have stopped getting spam

1068
01:22:12.960 --> 01:22:15.439
calls entirely. And then you know, then you get in the habit of

1069
01:22:15.479 --> 01:22:18.880
not like answering anything a little bit, and it's broken me at that Olympics.

1070
01:22:18.960 --> 01:22:21.920
When people call, the Google thing
will answer for me and get people's

1071
01:22:21.960 --> 01:22:25.239
little ad. They'll say why they're
calling, and I could just see it

1072
01:22:25.239 --> 01:22:28.279
and then I could break in and
answer real quick and it works and people

1073
01:22:28.359 --> 01:22:30.359
have started may people are getting used
to this now. People have started like

1074
01:22:30.399 --> 01:22:32.800
saying, oh, yeah, this
is why I'm calling. And I've gotten

1075
01:22:32.800 --> 01:22:35.560
some important calls and was able to
pick it up, and then otherwise during

1076
01:22:35.600 --> 01:22:39.840
the day, I'm just not being
bothered by incessant ringing on my phone.

1077
01:22:40.359 --> 01:22:43.600
It rules. It has completely made
the phone a much more pleasant thing to

1078
01:22:43.640 --> 01:22:47.199
have around. Wouldn't you put the
success rate at like ninety five percent?

1079
01:22:47.520 --> 01:22:50.399
Yes, definitely, yes, it's
that high. Like there might be some

1080
01:22:50.439 --> 01:22:53.800
false positives, but I don't think
so. It doesn't really seem like.

1081
01:22:53.840 --> 01:22:56.560
It seems like it's just working the
way it's supposed to work. It's there

1082
01:22:56.960 --> 01:23:00.000
there is some special sauce going on
there too, because you're like, well,

1083
01:23:00.039 --> 01:23:01.840
how does it know that, like
I should pick up this call from

1084
01:23:01.920 --> 01:23:08.479
the mechanic or it's just there's something
going on there. Just ask my wife

1085
01:23:08.640 --> 01:23:13.439
about her life now because she's got
an iPhone and she you know, she

1086
01:23:13.479 --> 01:23:18.279
fucking hates it and log though yeah
that she's like, finally I can really,

1087
01:23:18.920 --> 01:23:25.479
you know, adjust the colors of
all my videos now, perfectly reasonable

1088
01:23:25.520 --> 01:23:29.479
sacrifices. Switch to an iPhone.
No, she hates it, She misses

1089
01:23:29.800 --> 01:23:33.920
the pixel and look sucks to suck
folks. I believe that does it for

1090
01:23:33.960 --> 01:23:38.159
our top things of twenty twenty three
that aren't video games, Well, we'll

1091
01:23:38.199 --> 01:23:41.840

01:23:41.880 --> 01:23:45.079
