00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:15.800
Hello, everyone, Welcome back to
the fire Escape Cast. It is Nope,

2
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:21.239
no, that's it. That's what's
up is episode eighty one. This

3
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:25.000
is the show where we talk about
video games, politics, world issues,

4
00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:33.560
and bodily functions. I'm Mike,
here's always with Dan, Hi and Mary

5
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:38.600
and married. Do it like a
like a zippy straw that has all the

6
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:43.679
little curves in it? Okay,
I'm here as always with Dan. Mm

7
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:54.159
hmmm and boom he very kitsch.
That's the joy deserves. How's it going?

8
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:57.240
What's up? What are you doing? Either one of you jump in,

9
00:00:57.759 --> 00:01:00.840
talk about each other, each other, not being a poland with Jake

10
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:07.480
Decker, our producer, what happens? My head's bad and I'm on steroids.

11
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:12.359
My head's bad. I have to
take steroid to not drink for a

12
00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:17.040
month. Who my knife is terrible? No, actually the other stuff.

13
00:01:17.079 --> 00:01:19.400
So I am on the gas.
I'm wrote it up. Man, it's

14
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:22.920
helping with my runs. That's good, right, I bet. But it's

15
00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:27.400
like the thing it does for it's
well, it stops inflammation, like I

16
00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:30.599
guess that's the whole deal with this
stuff is like, because my whole fucking

17
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:34.840
cavernous head is filled with inflammation,
and it's supposed to like settle all that

18
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.840
down. So now it's like I
think what's happening is like I'm running like

19
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:41.840
crazy. Now I'm doing these long
runs. I'm running four or five days

20
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:46.480
a week, and then I'm not
feeling shitty afterwards, like I'm not sore.

21
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:49.480
Everything's like I'm running better. I've
got better cardio than I think I've

22
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:53.359
ever had. But I wonder at
what costs? Like if I fall in

23
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:57.239
my beamur shatters, is like blood
just keep coming out and then it doesn't

24
00:01:57.239 --> 00:01:59.840
patch up, or like what is
the side there has to be downside of

25
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:01.319
these steroids. Well, I guess
it's my head hurting and I getting I

26
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:06.319
can't sleep, and a whole bunch
of other stuff. But downside to steroids

27
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:09.560
is that you cannot stay on them
forever, and so what you are doing

28
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:15.439
is temporary and eventually you need to
train your body to exist without them,

29
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:19.759
like tapering schedule. So yes,
I do have to taper down. So

30
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:21.919
I know. I know because I
have to do it with my dog.

31
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.840
Every time I have a my dog
has like a severe allergic reaction. He's

32
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:29.960
got to go on steroids and then
we have to like wean him off and

33
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:34.199
he's hyper and he's crazy and he
barks at the door like a mongrel.

34
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:37.120
I think you guys are probably really
similar right now? Does he does?

35
00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:38.479
He crash too, because like I
get kind of hyper and then I'll have

36
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:42.879
like weird crashes, and then I'll
just get like confused. Sometimes like more

37
00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:46.840
than usual. He like power naps
and then like, yeah, walks around

38
00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:50.039
like like a pit bull. He's
like who wants this? Who wants some

39
00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:55.039
of their Then yeah, trying to
start fights with gizmo and stuff. Yeah,

40
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:59.319
you get confused as in like other
people say something that you don't understand,

41
00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:00.840
or you just find yourself walking to
another room in the house and then

42
00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:06.080
stop and we're like what is going
on? Sometimes it's kind of hard to

43
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:07.280
follow stuff. But like, for
instance, the other night, I was

44
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:10.280
I just wanted to like drive down
the road a little bit to see the

45
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:15.319
northern lights when that was happening,
and like, as I was driving like

46
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:21.240
a three minute thing, I got
like randomly confused and scared, and I

47
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:23.360
was like, what the fuck is
this? But like I had my wits

48
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:24.879
about me enough to where it's like
this is weird. I've never had this

49
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:28.680
Like I've had anxiety and stuff like
that and weird times, but this was

50
00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:31.800
like more of a like acute,
like I'm feeling fucked up all of a

51
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:38.919
sudden. And again maybe your panic
attacks were on steroids. Oly Like it

52
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:44.680
doesn't just like boost your lungs and
like your immune system, it also like

53
00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:49.400
makes your anxiety free. Think it's
so powerful. Your anxiety is like I

54
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:55.639
am unstoppable. I'm gonna fuck you
up. Dan Oh that sounds real good.

55
00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:00.960
That's what you want. He's like
he's lifting way it's inside of there

56
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:03.879
and he's like, oh, you
wait to go to sleep? Camere.

57
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:08.680
Anxiety is the boy. I get
just a little, a little scared boy

58
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:11.479
inside my head. Yet I tell
all the time I gender all sorts of

59
00:04:11.479 --> 00:04:15.680
stuff I shouldn't. I gender negative
things often masculine, but you know,

60
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:17.319
like boats are usually women where they're
like, what's your name? Er?

61
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:21.319
I do that one hundred percent.
If I love it, I'll be like,

62
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:28.160
she's amazing. It's just my instinct, weird little anxiety goblins a dude

63
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:30.680
in my head. One hundred percent. I would do it with Paris and

64
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:32.920
that would be it would be a
lady for sure, Paris. She's great,

65
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:39.839
she's incredible. Ohios, Ohio,
aunt who smokes too much? And

66
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:43.879
then you also don't really. She
also brings like a ham over whenever she

67
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:46.639
visits. Cool you just got a
little freezer you had to buy because she

68
00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:50.560
brings too many hams. Damn it, Ohio, I don't want any more

69
00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:59.439
ham She collects rosaries. She has
an xbox rosary. What the fuck?

70
00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:03.759
I don't know. Well, yeah, well, best of luck to your

71
00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:06.920
head and uh, the best of
luck to Jake Decker and Poland on his

72
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:10.079
own. I told him, I
told him to take some moody, lonesome

73
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:13.720
photos and be melancholy while he's there. Oh, without me looking after him,

74
00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:15.160
he's gonna get in trouble. Yeah, we were talking. We were

75
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:18.680
saying, he's probably in a gutter
somewhere. Yeah. Well the first well,

76
00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:21.879
I guess at this point anymore,
I guess I shouldn't talk specifics about

77
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:25.360
the thing, since I don't know
if it's embargod or anything. But it

78
00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:28.160
was like cool stuff like to go
to It was only like a day and

79
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:30.319
a half on the ground, but
it was like at some cool spaces and

80
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:32.959
like there was some drinky stuff involved
too. That. I guess even if

81
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:34.519
I was able to go, I
wouldn't be able to drink right now,

82
00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:38.639
able to drink him? Yeah yeah, But you know what I actually I

83
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:43.120
went to a brewery this last weekend. And you know, I associate social

84
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:46.120
stuff with drinking always. That's how
it's always been as an adult. But

85
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:47.560
I was like, well, I
can't hear and everyone else is probably gonna

86
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:50.639
be drinking instead of brewery. And
I did try like the NA stuff.

87
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:54.360
They had this like orange cream soda. They had this like NA beer and

88
00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:56.639
stuff like that and kombucha, and
I was like, fuck it, they

89
00:05:56.639 --> 00:05:58.879
got this whole NA menu. I
mean, what else am I gonna do

90
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:00.800
to drink water? I try everything, And I was there for like hours

91
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.439
and hours and hours, and there
was like, actually, it turns out

92
00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:06.560
you can still just have a good
time just hanging out with people tend to

93
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:11.079
be drunk, but you know,
it's not torture to not be. The

94
00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:15.319
n A industry is like at an
all time high. Uh, it's a

95
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:17.600
good time to you know, be
sober. What have you? Let me

96
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:23.800
look at North American industry YEP.
According to the report, global demand for

97
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:27.480
the NA beverage market was valued that's
not the same thing as profit obviously,

98
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:30.319
at approximately nine oh two point one
four billion in twenty twenty three, and

99
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:39.480
is expected to generate revenue of around
what That can't be right. Hold on

100
00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:45.360
a second, that's who's this guy
on LinkedIn saying that who's Who's No,

101
00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:49.040
it's the fucking it's Google's like AI
overview that so far has been inaccurate.

102
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:53.480
Every time I've looked at it,
I scrolled straight past that ship every time.

103
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:55.240
I don't. I mean, let
me look this up. It was

104
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:59.600
a lot. This makes a lot
AI. Okay, this looks way more

105
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:02.399
realistic because the numbers they were showing
me is literally no industry makes that much

106
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:10.319
except for porn. The structor's very
point has already seen that she already increase

107
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:14.040
by nine point nine percent for value. Okay, it's valued at one four

108
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:18.120
point three billion. Jesus Christ,
I mean, I get it. It's

109
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:21.160
a nice thing to like. Also
like THC beverduce and stuff. I feel

110
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:25.399
like if you're someone who doesn't like
drinking alcohol, now it's probably a pretty

111
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:28.759
great time. Like at least in
Minnesota, like every brewery has like THC

112
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:30.879
drinks and stuff like that, and
it's you know, like a five miligram

113
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:33.319
thing to sip on and that'll get
to you for a few hours. You

114
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:41.000
know. That's uh good options Portland
before they cracked down on it, they

115
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:44.040
used to just put it in everything. They would be like, if you

116
00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:47.360
want to add a shot of CBD
to any drink, just let us know.

117
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:51.800
And then like, of course,
like the government overlords came in and

118
00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:55.800
was like, you have to regulate
this shit. You just can't put as

119
00:07:55.879 --> 00:08:01.279
much CBD in someone's drink as CB. I know. But they came for

120
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:03.600
us, they might come for you
too. I'm just telling you. Like

121
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:07.079
Portland was like the mecca of CBD
where they just put that shit. Literally,

122
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:09.160
like I could be like I want
a burger and like put put the

123
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:11.240
squirt of CBD in there and they'd
be like, you got it, honey.

124
00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:16.680
But now it's all regulated and it
has to be in a closed canister,

125
00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:18.120
like you have to be able to
pop it. Does that make sense?

126
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:22.040
They can't just squirt it into a
drink, and you can't if it's

127
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:26.319
a if it's like a CBD on
draft, it has to be in a

128
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:31.319
sealed canister. They won't they won't
let you just add it. No more

129
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:39.320
here THHC like TC is fine here. I'm I'm just telling you believe that's

130
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:43.919
very conservative. The man, the
man, the man came in and they

131
00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:48.000
regulated the ship out of our drugs, which really upset me because I like

132
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:52.279
to just add it to whatever.
I'm like a huge advocate for CBD and

133
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:58.080
THHC in liquid form as a tincture. It's like my favorite way to do

134
00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:05.399
drugs now, it's my struggle choice
is a liquid tincture that I just add

135
00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:09.039
into like whatever bevy. I've also
been drinking less, so I appreciate this.

136
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:15.759
I realized that I wanted to lose
a little bit of weight and just

137
00:09:15.799 --> 00:09:18.879
kind of like check my health.
I drink a lot, there's no question,

138
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:22.759
and there's a lot of empty calories
in a bevy. So I thought,

139
00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:26.720
if I if I just do less, like let's say I have it

140
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:31.159
or I have the days that I'm
drinking a week, that's an incredible amount

141
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:35.559
of calories that I'm not having anymore. So I did start doing that,

142
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:39.120
and it's been really effective for me, and I've also found that I still

143
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:43.960
have a good time. I got
invited to a girls night last week and

144
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.320
it was at a bar, but
I used my scooter. I drove my

145
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.159
scooter, and I do not drink
when I'm riding my scooter because if I

146
00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:58.639
even get tapped, I would die. So I'm like hyper vigilant on my

147
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:03.679
scooter. And so I had two
mocktails at the bar. I had a

148
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.679
great time. No one knew,
not that I had to hide it,

149
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:11.480
but like nobody was the wiser.
I just drank like everybody else did,

150
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:13.360
and I went home super clear headed. I thought it was great. I

151
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:16.679
mean, if the age were at
if anybody would give you shit for like

152
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:22.000
not like fuck you, like fuck
you if you're eighteen in doing that,

153
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:26.000
but like if a were adult ass
adults, if somebody's like, ooh,

154
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:28.759
it's a fuck off, I'm not
hanging out with you anymore. Yeah,

155
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:33.879
at that time has come and gone. Do you remember that movie Coyote Ugly?

156
00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:39.720
I think I worked at a movie
theater when the poster was on the

157
00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:43.039
wall and I was fourteen. Yes, I poster very well. Yes,

158
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.080
I'm glad you have such a vivid
memory of it. And in Coyote Ugly,

159
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:50.919
there's like an iconic part where a
guy at the bar orders a water

160
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:54.120
and they all boo him and make
him leave the bar, and they go,

161
00:10:56.960 --> 00:11:03.360
what do we not serve? The
bar goes water and they look chastize

162
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:07.440
him for ordering a water. I
thought that he was ahead of its time.

163
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:13.799
Oh yeah, well, I I've
always been very I am against the

164
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:16.879
idea of peer pressure. I don't
agree with any of this. Really,

165
00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:26.600
wait too early, Mary's broke?
Dan is right? Wow you rip ally's

166
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:31.639
voices? I hate you, Dan, that's minaughty. God. That one

167
00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:35.480
doesn't even make sense. I didn't
like it. It just sounds funny.

168
00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:43.000
God, damn it. Look you
just shouldn't peer pressure people. Oh my

169
00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:50.000
god, Mary using me all week
on light club. I have been getting

170
00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:52.399
people. How do you know?
How do you know? You send me

171
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:58.840
your stupid show? Dan? It's
a great heaven you on as a guess.

172
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.039
I wasn't what. He's probably got
something, I tell you right,

173
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:07.360
No last time. No, no, no, I don't know. I

174
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:09.159
wouldn't do that. No, No, he uses it only to spite me.

175
00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:15.440
I I want you to know that
I was sent multiple endangering clips of

176
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:18.639
you, Dan, and I did
not add them to a soundboard because time

177
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.960
stamps better than you. I'm always
responsible with this You're right. I'm not

178
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.320
responsible with this. You are abusing
it. Every second you push that button.

179
00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:31.840
You have to averyone agrees with me. Right, Aw Wrestlers, Evil

180
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:35.320
Uno and Adam Cole, You're probably
right Dan Dan is right. Thanks guys.

181
00:12:35.639 --> 00:12:41.440
Oh my god, how many soundboards
do you have? It's just a

182
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:46.240
giant glowing table in front of me. You like the Wizard of Oz for

183
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:50.759
the stupidest reason. Dan sucks and
he's dumb as a butt. Disagree.

184
00:12:52.639 --> 00:13:05.879
I knew, I knew it.
I was waiting for that oneree what Okay,

185
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:13.919
I don't know his voice it was
that's Manti. I knew it immediately.

186
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:18.919
He has a very distinct voice.
There's a musical voice. Think about

187
00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:20.759
it, and I'd be like,
I'm not sure, but like, there's

188
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:24.720
a couple of people. Minati has
like a voice I could pick out of

189
00:13:24.759 --> 00:13:28.120
a lineup on my worst day.
I'd be like, I know exactly who

190
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:33.200
that is very distinct. He sounds
like Billy Crystal got kicked in the nuts.

191
00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:41.000
Yeah, Summer Wait what this is
going? Uh? This will go

192
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:43.879
up on the twentieth. We'll have
one more episode before Summer Games Fest.

193
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:52.759
Yeah. I will not going.
I won't be there. You guys should

194
00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:58.960
come. I'll be It's hard.
It's not the France, which I will

195
00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:07.120
so like to be, yet it's
that I was invited. I'm a fan

196
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:11.960
to say, it just won't be
the same if Mary isn't with me on

197
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:18.200
my honeymoon in Paris from and so
I'm considering it, but it's also really

198
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:24.799
close to TwitchCon and everything I do. I really still I hate bringing this

199
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:28.200
up, but everything I do I
still in the back of my mind,

200
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:31.720
I'm like, what are the statistical
chances that I will get COVID? And

201
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:37.120
I have to think about it because
I can't afford to get it before I

202
00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:41.639
go to Europe, And so usually
a few weeks before I go, I

203
00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:43.919
stay home and I just make sure
that I don't, you know, accidentally,

204
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:48.960
you know, get myself sick.
You know what I've what I've been

205
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:52.279
doing recently that's not good for my
health that I wanted to share with you

206
00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:58.000
guys. I've been getting into smoking
cigars. Oh nice. I go to

207
00:14:58.320 --> 00:15:05.320
cigar and I have a cigar,
and I don't know anything about cigars,

208
00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:09.000
so I can't really tell you a
lot about it. I've been going to

209
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:13.120
a bar and they chop off the
ends, just like in the movies,

210
00:15:13.519 --> 00:15:18.360
and they give me some matches,
and I have a cigar and a bar.

211
00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:22.440
Sometimes you're with a drink and sometimes
by it's lonesome. It's been great.

212
00:15:22.799 --> 00:15:24.879
I like, yeah, yeah,
if you don't chop off the end,

213
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:28.759
you're just sucking on paper that's not
letting to smoke through. I used

214
00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:33.200
to smoke a lot of cigars.
I have so little about it. Do

215
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:37.120
they have like calories? No?
No, I guess you're not eating them.

216
00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:43.320
It's probably not good for you because
it's smoke. But I mean the

217
00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:45.639
worst case scenario, you smoke a
lot of them, you get a mouth

218
00:15:45.720 --> 00:15:48.639
kit. It's on steroids. You
can't fight a little bit of smoke.

219
00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:50.879
He's dead already. Its steroids.
I could have cigars. Yeah, yeah,

220
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.080
if anything, you kind of want
to like build up your system a

221
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:56.799
little bit, like come on,
like let me come over and like slap

222
00:15:56.879 --> 00:16:03.120
you around a little bit before you
go into surgery. Let me shake you

223
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:07.360
once today, just to make sure
that you're like, you know, you're

224
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:11.000
tepid. You've like you've processed everything, and you know your body is like

225
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:12.919
we gotta keep you on your toes. We want like all your white blood

226
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:15.120
cells to be like what she wanna
do? Is she gonna come out?

227
00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:18.919
I gotta scare you and stuff like
that, and then you'll never die.

228
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:21.960
Just put my head in like one
of those paint canshakers before my surgery.

229
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:25.600
Just make sure it's all loose and
ready to go. Like, uh,

230
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:29.440
yes, you won't shut up about
Corky Romano. He's been bringing up.

231
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:36.679
Oh, just like Casablanco when Rick
gets his head in the Shaker Classic.

232
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:47.600
Oh sorry, I did watch like
doctor Oh sorry, I didn't watch Fritz

233
00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:56.200
Lang Silent Classic Metropolis before we recorded, and I can only references Corky Romano.

234
00:16:56.960 --> 00:17:00.600
I'm a film major. I have
more important things to with my time.

235
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:04.400
I watched it is the new Copola
trailer that Megalopolis. Yes it looks

236
00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:07.400
weird. Apparently it was a I
mean, like any movie he's ever made.

237
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:11.920
Apparently it was just an absolute nightmare
to make. Yeah, like all

238
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:14.279
the good ones wound up being like
a nightmare to make. But then,

239
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:17.200
like you know, Jack was probably
a breeze like, so, I don't

240
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:23.839
know, maybe this one's good.
Speaking of which have you watched? Talking

241
00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:30.200
about SGF and cinematic weirdness. Have
you guys watched Everybody's in La. I've

242
00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:33.960
seen the first episode. Yes,
Yeah, it's funny. It reminds me

243
00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:37.440
of when everybody's in La for SGF
and you guys have them on your couch.

244
00:17:38.039 --> 00:17:41.920
Yeah, because they're there for Sketch
Week or Netflix is Netflix is a

245
00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:45.440
joke Festival. Yeah. I was
there the same week. I was in

246
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.519
La last week for a thing work. I did not see any of them.

247
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:52.559
Unfortunately, I've been seeing my buddy
Nikki Glazer blowing up like crazy,

248
00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:56.400
even more than she has the last
like ten years. The HBO special,

249
00:17:56.480 --> 00:17:59.519
She's on the Malayiy thing, the
Brady Rose like, she's killing it.

250
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:02.759
I mean, yeah, Brady Roast
I think is the number one thing.

251
00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:08.160
She absolutely murdered it with John Mulaney
for the show. The show's funny,

252
00:18:08.240 --> 00:18:12.200
it's weird, and it's also just
like about you know, John Mulaney settling

253
00:18:12.319 --> 00:18:18.400
in La with Olivia mun they're his
kid, and wait, it's real,

254
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:22.640
it's about real stuff. It's it's
it's every All these comedians for Netflix as

255
00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:26.279
a joke like Comedy Week are in
La. So he's like, oh,

256
00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:30.480
everybody's here, I might as well
have them onto this loose kind of seventies

257
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:33.440
poor no vibe talk show, and
we're gonna do a variety show. There

258
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:36.920
will be some sketches, only like
one one out of every five sketch was

259
00:18:36.920 --> 00:18:38.720
actually funny. We're gonna have every
comedian a bunch of friends, and we're

260
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:41.680
gonna also we're gonna do a weird
theme. We're gonna have we have a

261
00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:45.839
weird theme for every episode about like
Tie to La, like coyotes, earthquakes,

262
00:18:47.160 --> 00:18:51.640
palm trees, the future of La
driving and it's just funny. It's

263
00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:53.839
like, well, this is you
know, giant bomb does this with everybody's

264
00:18:53.880 --> 00:18:57.319
in La, so let's bring them
on our couch for a bit. But

265
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:02.039
I like Collins segments like people and
just called the Netflix show lives. Yeah,

266
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:06.000
Marror of La called in for one, and then they had like plants

267
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:10.039
that called in and impersonated like Bob
Dylan. But it was pretty fun.

268
00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:11.759
I liked it. I didn't watch
any of them live. I've missed them

269
00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:17.559
all. Oh yeah, will fare
on the audience was funny, and then

270
00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:22.960
Flee was in the last episode,
but it was good. I also and

271
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:26.279
the only other TV thing I'll mention
because I know I talked mainly about TV.

272
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:30.039
Last episode is uh. I watched
one episode of Conan O'Brien Must Go.

273
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:36.160
I've seen them, yeah, and
I can't get the image of him

274
00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:38.200
singing with the Irish tenors out of
my head. Oh they're looking at the

275
00:19:38.200 --> 00:19:42.240
fjord salmon and the sea that they
Yeah, it's when they're they're in He's

276
00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:47.079
singing with these famous in the bar, in the bar, but also the

277
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:49.440
practice thing and they're like, all
right, you know you get like sing

278
00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:52.440
from your diaphragm, like let it
out. And he I've never heard someone

279
00:19:53.200 --> 00:19:57.519
like scream a song like that,
and even they started laughing. It's a

280
00:19:57.680 --> 00:20:03.160
it's very good. But yeah,
he does very well with the remote stuff,

281
00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:06.599
and I'd like, I think that's
a really cool way for his later

282
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:11.160
career now is like podcasting and this
occasional run of travel shows versus the like

283
00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:15.119
grind of the every night late night
talk show, which is the revolving door

284
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:18.519
of celebrity interviews and stuff. He
seems a lot happier doing this. Yeah,

285
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:21.839
it's very funny. I was losing
my land my mind laughing the whole

286
00:20:21.839 --> 00:20:26.000
time. Yeah, it's it was
very fun very very funny show. Conan

287
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:30.640
has still got it and it kind
of reminds me of just I don't know.

288
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:33.359
I grew up watching Conan on Late
Night and I always thought he was

289
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:40.160
the funniest host. And it's probably
like your love of norm Dan, Like,

290
00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:44.000
I just really relate and associate with
Conan's style of humor. It's super

291
00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:48.720
self deprecating. It's uh, I
just really appreciate it. And there's so

292
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:51.960
many times where he's in a tricky
situation. You'll see this a lot like

293
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.160
culturally in the show. It's like
are you gonna be good here? You

294
00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:59.680
know? Are you gonna do this
right? And I love like he always

295
00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:03.440
finds way to completely thread the needle. In one of the ones, he

296
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:06.759
was like, hey, can you
tell me all of the ways that I

297
00:21:06.920 --> 00:21:11.640
can respect social norms so that I
can ignore them? And the person answered

298
00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:15.799
him genuinely and honestly, and he
like like listened authentically the whole time.

299
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:18.440
I was just like he was making
a little joke. There was one where

300
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:22.000
he's like, I heard here that
you really appreciate your personal space? Do

301
00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:26.480
you mind if I invage a personal
space? Guy's like okay, he gets

302
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:30.200
his consent he's like okay, and
then Conan by the end of it licks

303
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:34.519
this guy's face, yeah, and
he's so uncomfortable, but it's so like

304
00:21:34.920 --> 00:21:38.839
it's just so thoughtful and sweet and
like nobody's getting hurt, nobody's getting like

305
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:45.240
he's found a way to make really
really funny comedy without I don't know,

306
00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:48.920
disrespecting a culture or a people.
He's found a way to do it,

307
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:52.240
and it just he's a genius.
It's never mean spirited. And he also

308
00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:56.920
has that just like nuclear weapon in
a comedic arsenal of just like no issue

309
00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:02.039
at all with looking like the biggest
horses ass in the world. Like half

310
00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:06.920
of this travel shows him looking like
the dumbest asshole from America and all these

311
00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:11.759
different like just being an idiot and
screaming and like rolling around on the ground

312
00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:17.160
in a cheese shop or whatever,
like he's, oh yeah, he's fucking

313
00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:22.319
intro from Werner Herzog is perfect,
Yes, like an unspoiled landscape begging to

314
00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:26.160
be filed. And it cuts to
cone with like a chicken hat on going

315
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:33.960
down a canal in Vietnam or wherever
you dull eyes, dead dull eyes at

316
00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:37.960
one's interview like I feel like there
was like a generation that was introduced to

317
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:41.359
him, like, God, this
guy's going for it. This guy,

318
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:45.759
Yeah, turns out it's so funny. Yeah, this guy has always been

319
00:22:45.799 --> 00:22:49.359
good, but they've found a way
to just really let him shine that.

320
00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:55.680
The self deprecation is so good.
There's like this one where he's he's knitting

321
00:22:55.720 --> 00:23:00.119
and crocheting with a group of women. He makes himself a little f and

322
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:04.920
you're like, you're gonna need a
couple more rounds of knit there, and

323
00:23:04.960 --> 00:23:11.400
he was like, no, I'm
not. I'm very small. This is

324
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:15.799
so funny. Like a whole group
of women who can't really understand what he's

325
00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:22.039
saying, just absolutely laughing because they
know he's talking about small, small conan.

326
00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:26.119
It's so funny. God, he's
hilarious. What just probably the legendary

327
00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:30.119
comedy career of like our lifetimes.
Between The Simpsons, Saturday Night Live,

328
00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:34.079
Late Night, he had the Tonight
Show, at the TVs show. Now

329
00:23:34.079 --> 00:23:37.839
he's got this super successful podcast,
a podcast network, now this HBO show.

330
00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:41.799
Like he has had such a run
like the entire time we've been alive.

331
00:23:41.960 --> 00:23:45.640
Yeah, I don't know anybody else
that's done as many different things him

332
00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:48.720
I mean, it's all within the
world of comedy, but there's a lot

333
00:23:48.759 --> 00:23:52.319
of writers. Writer like Bill Hayter
is approaching that, but he hasn't had

334
00:23:52.359 --> 00:23:56.839
a talk show. And also he's
not doing podcasting like Bill. Header's also

335
00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:00.000
more like going for I think he's
doing some more quote un quote artistic movie

336
00:24:00.000 --> 00:24:03.960
making these days. Yeah, and
if you looked at someone like like someone

337
00:24:03.960 --> 00:24:06.720
like Robert Smigel, if you were
to look at his like filmography, you

338
00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:08.440
know, his career is as impressive
as Conan, but he's not as forward

339
00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:11.559
facing. He showed up in a
couple of halfataw movies or whatever, but

340
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:14.680
like Conan has been like front and
center from the moment that he was like

341
00:24:14.759 --> 00:24:17.200
not at all ready for it.
I mean he was shoved out there by

342
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:19.640
Lauren, you know, after Letterman
left and he had a real rock a

343
00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:22.119
few years and then just turned it
into one of the best comedy careers of

344
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:26.960
all time. It's goddamn. It's
great that. I was funny seeing mulaney

345
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:30.640
do Everybody's in la because you know, he wrote for SNL, he was

346
00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:37.440
on SNL. He has had several
very successful stand up shows. He sold

347
00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:40.839
out the Hollywood Bowl recently doing stand
up. But he's also I mean,

348
00:24:40.839 --> 00:24:42.079
he was briefly in The Bear.
It was a very good episode. I

349
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:45.359
think he did well. But like
if he did a I feel like,

350
00:24:47.200 --> 00:24:49.279
if he did a talk show for
how long to Conan do it? Twenty

351
00:24:49.319 --> 00:24:55.200
years? Ninety three until he took
over the Tonight Show in like two thousand

352
00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:57.480
and nine, I want to say
two thousand and eight, and that last

353
00:24:57.519 --> 00:25:00.559
time I mean TBS, I mean
fuck, we're talking like ninety three to

354
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:03.720
like the twenty tens, Like,
yeah, the mid mid to late twenty

355
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:07.559
tens. I would say, like
twenty ish something years. If Laney did

356
00:25:07.559 --> 00:25:11.440
a talk show for twenty years and
then started doing like whatever the fuck the

357
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:14.400
new podcast is twenty years from now, I think he would be on the

358
00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:18.880
same a similar level. Yeah he's
incredible, Yeah he's got He has this

359
00:25:18.960 --> 00:25:21.640
one bit and I don't even want
to really spoil it because and I also

360
00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:25.000
will butcher it so it won't be
funny. But they talk about how La

361
00:25:25.720 --> 00:25:29.119
I think La is hosting the twenty
eight Olympics or they're in a bid to

362
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:32.640
host the twenty eight Olympics, and
half the show is just him. It's

363
00:25:32.680 --> 00:25:36.640
a like he jokes about it being
a selfish bid to try to figure out

364
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:38.960
what the fuck is going on with
La, Like it just feels like this

365
00:25:40.039 --> 00:25:45.240
big accident everywhere he goes. So
he has a lot of these local experts

366
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:48.599
at like the labrets, harpits,
earth seismologists, palm tree experts, et

367
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:52.519
cetera. Come on, and he's
got one bit where it's the most John

368
00:25:52.559 --> 00:25:57.160
mulaney joke ever. He's like,
so La trying to host the Olympics or

369
00:25:57.200 --> 00:26:00.599
like, you know, having La
host the Olympics is like you have a

370
00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:04.039
friend whose house is on fire.
She just found out she's terminally ill.

371
00:26:06.160 --> 00:26:08.799
She her like entire family just died, and to help her out, you

372
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:15.000
make her host the Olympics. And
it's just like delivered of the most millennious

373
00:26:15.319 --> 00:26:18.359
uh, you know, like intonation. It's really good. So he does

374
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:22.000
the monologue and then he does again. It's a it's more of a variety

375
00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:29.160
show than anything. And uh,
it's very loose and weird and like dreamlike

376
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:33.960
and fever trippy. It's a it's
it's you should watch the rest of It's

377
00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:38.039
good nice. I enjoyed it.
I like comedy. It's all right,

378
00:26:38.519 --> 00:26:48.400
it's pretty good. I like comedy
and pizza and the office, traveling and

379
00:26:48.440 --> 00:26:53.119
traveling. Who's this? It's just
like every person's bio on dating apps back

380
00:26:53.119 --> 00:26:59.000
when I was oh sure sarcasm fluent
in sarcasm. I can only be tamed

381
00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:02.599
with tequila. I love the office
and pizza. Here's me doing a yoga

382
00:27:02.599 --> 00:27:07.319
pos on Machu pichu. Yeah,
I get all friends references. Yes.

383
00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:12.759
Meanwhile, my profile is just like
I'll suck your butt for money. That's

384
00:27:12.759 --> 00:27:18.519
not what it's do. Dogs and
dicks. Yeah, we officially we fish

385
00:27:18.480 --> 00:27:22.759
dogs and Dixon cats. We fish
officially finished booking everything for France. We're

386
00:27:22.799 --> 00:27:26.319
done. Oh nice set, it's
gonna be great. So you bought a

387
00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:32.359
bunch of special wine holders for your
luggage. Oh the yeah, the protective

388
00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:36.640
bubble wrap packages for sending them back. We're bringing that check to the big

389
00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:41.519
the third big checked away bag for
like checking a whole bag for wine.

390
00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:45.480
Well, so we're there for two
weeks in France, so we're bringing we're

391
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:48.240
each bringing our own suitcase and like
smaller underseat carry on, and then we

392
00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:53.319
got a bigger suitcase for extra like
shoes and just incidentals. And then on

393
00:27:53.359 --> 00:27:56.519
the way back, Yeah, we're
gonna pack it with wine as much as

394
00:27:56.519 --> 00:27:59.680
we can because like, drink it
all on drink it all on the plane.

395
00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:00.680
Well, I mean, I'm sure
we'll get a bunch of bottles and

396
00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:03.799
bring them back to these airbnbs and
hotels, et cetera. But when you

397
00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:07.759
get them certain producers that we're going
to be going to and the whole trip

398
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:11.559
isn't a wine just a wine trip, but that's a focus of it.

399
00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:15.920
But some of these producers either don't
export to America or they're hard to find

400
00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:21.960
this specific bottle or vintage of But
it's also generally cheaper straight from the source.

401
00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:25.680
So we're going to send back some
pretty some bottles from We're going to

402
00:28:25.759 --> 00:28:30.319
Chateau Fijiac for people who are into
Bordeaux. If you need if you need

405
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:36.720
I know you well, I don't
want it to sell out, So talk

406
00:28:36.759 --> 00:28:37.559

cigar falling out, get me a

00:28:48.079 --> 00:28:49.920
want what can you get me in
France? Get me something in France that

410
00:28:51.960 --> 00:28:57.799

00:28:57.839 --> 00:29:00.720
you get Dan. Will be in
Pace and then Bordeaux, and then we're

412
00:29:00.759 --> 00:29:03.799
going across the Lais Valley and we're
gonna be in a lot of good cheese

413
00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:08.000
spots. Do they have any like
exclusive like easy cheese flavors there that we

414
00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:11.359
can't get here? I don't know. I could check, you know what,

415
00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:15.279
I would love French easy cheese.
Yeah? Good, you shoot it

416
00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:18.039
out instead of just like a stream
of goo, it's an actual full like

417
00:29:18.119 --> 00:29:23.319
Brie block of bris out of this
block form. Yeah, France is crazy.

418
00:29:23.400 --> 00:29:29.079
Yeah, they're crazy over there.
That's what I've always heard. Oh

419
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:33.400
man, a travel show like Conan
travel show where it's just Mike and my

420
00:29:33.519 --> 00:29:37.440
dad going to France on like a
wine trip would be amazing. He leaves

421
00:29:37.519 --> 00:29:41.720
every wine bar shouting I'm from the
dirt, and then he trips into river

422
00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:48.400
parts of some parts of France that
will be in I'm sure there's some locals

423
00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:53.359
that would get along with Paul absolutely
mm, Like, well, I don't

424
00:29:53.359 --> 00:29:57.599
know, they're They're probably like they
probably see Kansas as this uh you know,

425
00:29:57.920 --> 00:30:02.720
this exotic locate. I'm joking.
Exotics the word I would use for

426
00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:04.920
cancers always say, yeah, palm
trees as far as the eye can see

427
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:08.799
the dirt. Yeah, dirt and
palm trees. Yeah, it'll be fun.

428
00:30:10.039 --> 00:30:11.720
I will not be at SGF because
I'll be there most of half the

429
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:17.000
juice. It's gonna be sick.
It's gonna be sick. It's gonna be

430
00:30:17.039 --> 00:30:19.599
sick. I I think there are
plans for me to go to Disneyland with

431
00:30:19.680 --> 00:30:23.720
Mike Manattis, so that will be
awesome. It'll be interesting. Yeah,

432
00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:26.480
that be sick. I've done it
before, but it was just for like

433
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:30.240
a video game event, and so
we just did the Star Wars stuff real

434
00:30:30.319 --> 00:30:32.920
quick. But I think we're going
to try to like do a proper visit

435
00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:36.480
before we fly out. So fine, here's here's what we need to do.

436
00:30:36.920 --> 00:30:41.720
You should find the most disney ass, disney adult ass thing you could

437
00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:47.240
do there and then FaceTime me while
I'm in like a linen suit somewhere in

438
00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:52.160
Bordeaux. If it's like two in
the afternoon in Anaheim, what is it

439
00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:55.920
in France? Land? Three eight
hours ahead, nine hours eight Okay,

00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:07.920
today, It's likely I'm awake in
drinking. I'll be having a dull whip

442
00:31:07.960 --> 00:31:11.599
on a log ride and you'll whatever
a chateau is. Dan's got a piece

443
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:15.759
of celery with peanut butter and raisins
on it, going down this water spout,

444
00:31:15.799 --> 00:31:21.680
and I'm in palmer sipping the nectar
the Calm of the Gods, and

445
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:25.759
in my linen suit. Oh that
looks great, Dan. I wish I

446
00:31:25.839 --> 00:31:34.799
was there instead of dichotomy of man, tell Goofy, what up this Goofy

447
00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:40.680
talk? Yes, none of them
talk. Goofy absolutely talks. I met

448
00:31:40.720 --> 00:31:45.920
like characters, oh, like the
mascots at the or like in the cartoons

449
00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:49.400
or whatever. Does he talks?
Yes, he talks. He's got that's

450
00:31:49.400 --> 00:31:52.880
just a sound. That's not a
sentence. He talks. I think he's

451
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:56.680
talking. He's like Scooby. I
think he fought a clue. Scooby's a

452
00:31:56.680 --> 00:32:01.119
different guy. They don't know each
other. So that's Shaggy. Scooby doesn't

453
00:32:01.160 --> 00:32:05.640
say his own name. Shaggy is
the one who would say that line.

454
00:32:05.880 --> 00:32:07.200
Scooby says his own name. Isn't
that All he can say is like,

455
00:32:08.279 --> 00:32:10.799
I guess that's true. He does
say Scooby Dooby Doo, but he's not

456
00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:19.119
like he says themed after Scooby Doo
on Zombie Island. That ship was whack?

457
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:22.119
I love? Are they not six
flags? Isn't six flags like a

458
00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:27.559
Warner thing? Peanuts? Peanuts are
at six flags? Sounds right? Snoopy

459
00:32:27.640 --> 00:32:30.279
is the cartoon dog there. I
saw the New Monkey movie last night,

460
00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:35.599
went with Ben Hansen and Bank,
and I was thrown off because I saw

461
00:32:35.640 --> 00:32:39.920
the first three or the most recent
three. There were three of the like

462
00:32:39.960 --> 00:32:46.079
Modern trilogy, the one that started
with Rise Rise Don in War, this

463
00:32:46.119 --> 00:32:51.400
one and no No Rise don in
War was that trilogy. This is Kingdom,

464
00:32:51.960 --> 00:32:55.960
but this is like Way in the
Future that was even like the old

465
00:32:57.039 --> 00:32:59.960
sixties and seventies one. It's always
like beneath the planet of the beneath the

466
00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:02.319
you know, like that worry are
you at? You know? Give me

467
00:33:02.440 --> 00:33:07.400
like a nice two out of three
is what I'm looking for After a movie

468
00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:12.279
title, you know, you can't
name them all, like MacBook operating services,

469
00:33:12.319 --> 00:33:15.519
you know, like I don't know
if what leopard is. I don't

470
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:17.640
know if that's better. I did, well, this is a kingdom.

471
00:33:17.720 --> 00:33:21.440
It's like it is like a monkey
kingdom. Now it seems like the monkeys

472
00:33:21.480 --> 00:33:28.200
have taken over whatever. Is it
the first of a new trilogy. I

473
00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:30.160
don't know if they're doing a trilogy, but it is like they reference things

474
00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:35.279
from the course they are. Nobody
makes one of anything anymore. I just

475
00:33:35.440 --> 00:33:37.519
wasn't expecting all the monkeys to just
be chatting the whole time, like it

476
00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:40.240
was a good movie. But it's
like I remember there's like one word,

477
00:33:40.279 --> 00:33:44.559
like Caesar's went like no in the
Rise and it's whoa, he said a

478
00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:46.799
word? And then I can't really
remember much of Dawn and War, but

479
00:33:46.920 --> 00:33:49.599
in this one there's like, hey, what's up man, Hey, let's

480
00:33:49.599 --> 00:33:52.079
go find that eagle and you want
to go get that egg color? Man,

481
00:33:52.160 --> 00:33:54.680
let's go just sleep with chats to
dream, Let's go fuck up humans.

482
00:33:55.680 --> 00:34:00.599
Yeah, they're just talking the whole
goddamn time. Oh hang in that

483
00:34:00.599 --> 00:34:06.920
one is like Ruby Rock. The
King Monkey in this one is though he's

484
00:34:06.920 --> 00:34:09.559
a great like wrestling promo, he's
like really charismatic, like King Monkey.

485
00:34:09.559 --> 00:34:13.199
He doesn't get a lot of screen
time, but he's he's a good ud

486
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:17.000
heal in that King Monkey, it's
a good King Monkeys. It's like Proximus.

487
00:34:17.480 --> 00:34:22.119
That's a cool name. Anything in
Romans cool. It was a pretty

488
00:34:22.199 --> 00:34:24.360
it was pretty fun. I wouldn't
say it's like incredible, but I enjoyed

489
00:34:24.400 --> 00:34:29.960
it. I haven't seen any of
those films, and I have heard good

490
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:34.280
things about them. Like I agree
with you, I just haven't seen them.

491
00:34:34.559 --> 00:34:37.960
I don't know why, but I
haven't been compelled to see war.

492
00:34:38.440 --> 00:34:44.239
It's hard to like motivate me for
War, the New One, any War

493
00:34:44.519 --> 00:34:49.639
Kingdom, just war them in general. I haven't seen any war Monkey Wars,

494
00:34:50.079 --> 00:34:52.719
specifically Monkey Wars, saying, Mike, have you've seen Saving Private Ryan?

495
00:34:52.760 --> 00:34:57.679
This movie's sick. That was a
shoot that was Those are real dudes.

496
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:01.360
Well, they're playing real dudes.
Mary always says that she watches Saving

497
00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:07.760
Private Ryan every night. Right,
she does say that. I read to

498
00:35:07.840 --> 00:35:10.639
turn it around because I know it
says Dan, Well, shit, I

499
00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:15.840
have to agree. She's like this
Vin Diesel guy is hot. I have

500
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:22.519
never said that. Actually, didn't
he do? Riddick chronic? Yeah,

501
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:28.280
he's yeah, he's butchered by I
was very young when Reddick came out and

502
00:35:28.280 --> 00:35:31.880
I remember being like that guy is
good looking. But that's when it fell

503
00:35:31.880 --> 00:35:35.599
off. You can you can fill
me in on this here, And I

504
00:35:35.599 --> 00:35:37.119
think I might have just been absolutely
blind this, but I you know,

505
00:35:37.159 --> 00:35:40.480
like Brendan Fraser is having this like
career renaissance or something. Yeah, good

506
00:35:40.480 --> 00:35:43.800
for him. I think, yeah, yeah, he's a great actor.

507
00:35:43.800 --> 00:35:45.800
I've enjoyed a lot of us.
I think I've seeing a clip from min

508
00:35:45.920 --> 00:35:49.480
Max where they were talking about the
Ummy movie and stuff and everyone was like,

509
00:35:49.719 --> 00:35:52.679
oh my god, Brendan Fraser was
so hot back then, And like

510
00:35:52.760 --> 00:35:54.199
I remember thinking back then that like
I thought he was supposed to be like

511
00:35:54.239 --> 00:35:58.119
a doofy goofy guy because it was
always like deadly do right and George with

512
00:35:58.119 --> 00:36:01.159
the Jungle, Like did people find
Brendan Fraser like across the board? Yes,

513
00:36:01.199 --> 00:36:05.880
but not in every film. I
think they're racked off to Bedazzled VHS

514
00:36:05.920 --> 00:36:10.119
cover every night. Well there are
factors play, No, there's not.

515
00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:15.760
Everybody knows that if they were jacking
off to Bedazzle, it was for Brendan

516
00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:22.480
Frasier. Yes, there was no
other No, no, I told you

517
00:36:22.639 --> 00:36:27.440
on this podcast before I jade into
that cover. I love bedazzled and Brendan

518
00:36:27.480 --> 00:36:30.440
Fraser and no, he was a
he had his moment. There was a

519
00:36:30.440 --> 00:36:35.000
couple where was it in Sino Man
he was having that too. There's a

520
00:36:35.039 --> 00:36:40.679
couple where he like had his his
like attractive era. And absolutely the Mummy

521
00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:47.239
with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weiss,
both of them are smoking hot. Still

522
00:36:47.880 --> 00:36:52.519
yes, God, no one deserves
her. But I'm just saying in that

523
00:36:52.599 --> 00:36:55.840
film, there's a time where you
know where they do that like attractive male

524
00:36:55.920 --> 00:37:00.639
lead thing where the hair is like
it's kind of like bang for boys,

525
00:37:00.960 --> 00:37:02.519
and there's just it just kind of
goes off to the side like little like

526
00:37:02.519 --> 00:37:07.599
like bug things in front of the
eyes. That's when you know they're a

527
00:37:07.639 --> 00:37:10.880
fuck boy. On the second those
little bangs are in front of their eyes,

528
00:37:12.199 --> 00:37:15.440
everybody wants a piece of that ass. And that was like a universal

529
00:37:15.480 --> 00:37:24.800
thing like like bangs as it's the
bangs. Once you get the boy bangs,

530
00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:30.800
you're in And uh, this is
also true with other films, Uh,

531
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:37.000
like Titanic, Right, Yeah,
that's Leon's Leon Kennedy. Things that

532
00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:44.880
everybody heart throbs. I have to
play resident evil. Yes, boy bangs

533
00:37:45.000 --> 00:37:50.159
are banging, and the grilies love
it one hundred percent, and he had

534
00:37:50.239 --> 00:37:52.400
boy bangs in that film strictly nineties
things like if a dude did that like

535
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:58.360
right now, would right now?
Still nineties are like back in fashion,

536
00:37:58.639 --> 00:38:01.599
so it makes sense that like these
nineties early two thousands heart throbs or I

537
00:38:01.639 --> 00:38:05.119
don't. I don't know that Brenda
Fraser was a heart throb when that movie

538
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:07.880
first came out. I also knew
it was by the end of it.

539
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:09.559
The Mummy, Yeah, it was
a something throb, you know what I

540
00:38:09.639 --> 00:38:15.480
mean, he wouldn't by what's that. I watched The Mummy recently on to

541
00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:19.920
hold up my phone. Yeah,
it's entertaining. It was on a flight.

542
00:38:20.559 --> 00:38:22.800
It's still good. It still holds
up. Yeah, I love it.

543
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:25.760
That's not the one where the Scorpion
King shows up at the end,

544
00:38:25.840 --> 00:38:30.920
right, yes, and then the
Scorpion King. We don't talk about that

545
00:38:30.119 --> 00:38:34.119
movie. Yeah, okay, good
movie. I think the third one is

546
00:38:34.159 --> 00:38:37.639
the Scorpion King. Just to be
clear, Mummy returns though he shows up

547
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:40.519
at the end. Yeah, the
cg like scorpion Yeah, the worst c

548
00:38:42.519 --> 00:38:45.920
ridiculous, it's awful. Yeah,
yeah, we don't talk about those.

549
00:38:45.400 --> 00:38:49.079
But the first one still I think, I think I just watch you know

550
00:38:49.079 --> 00:38:52.400
what I watched for the It still
holds up fifth element, still good.

551
00:38:52.800 --> 00:38:55.760
I've been meaning to I've been meaning
to watch that for like fifteen years now.

552
00:38:57.199 --> 00:38:59.840
That's fun. I remember Gary Oldman
just having a good time in that

553
00:38:59.840 --> 00:39:02.840
movie. There a bunch of actors
were like, fuck it, I really

554
00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:07.039
am here. This place is crazy, like everybody like really committed to their

555
00:39:07.079 --> 00:39:14.559
roles. Bruce willis also fucking super
hot in that film, as is Leelu

556
00:39:14.599 --> 00:39:20.159
Dallas multi pass super hot Leelu Dallas. Yes, I forgot there was Nip

557
00:39:20.239 --> 00:39:22.880
in that. There's a wait are
you talking, Miller Jobo bitch. Yes,

558
00:39:23.039 --> 00:39:27.000
that's the is the character name?
Okay, got it? Yeah,

559
00:39:27.000 --> 00:39:30.480
one hundred percent. And she's smoking
hot in that and everybody talks about her.

560
00:39:30.840 --> 00:39:34.719
But this movie, I don't know
what year this was made. I

561
00:39:34.800 --> 00:39:39.039
was like, oh my gosh,
young Bruce willis in his prime, like

562
00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:44.880
fit, looking good. He's got
like a little bit of his toft left.

563
00:39:44.920 --> 00:39:46.480
He's like got like just a couple
of baby hairs up there, and

564
00:39:46.519 --> 00:39:51.079
it's all you need. That's all
you need. Quite frankly, he looks

565
00:39:51.119 --> 00:39:53.280
great. I'm gonna do the thing
where I compare myself because I always remember

566
00:39:53.280 --> 00:39:55.719
thinking that Bruce willis like John McLain
and Fifth Element, being like, oh,

567
00:39:55.760 --> 00:39:59.199
that's like an older action guy or
whatever. And now I'm gonna see

568
00:39:59.199 --> 00:40:01.239
if I'm older than he. Okay, he was born in fifty five.

569
00:40:01.559 --> 00:40:06.760
He was born in Germany, so
by nineteen ninety five he was forty.

570
00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:09.440
So yeah, he had been in
like three Diehard movies. And I'm older

571
00:40:09.480 --> 00:40:14.280
than him in the first three Diehard
movies. Okay, all right, older

572
00:40:14.280 --> 00:40:20.159
than him in the after the die
Hard movies. I'm older than the first

573
00:40:20.199 --> 00:40:23.840
three John McLain movies him in those
movies. Yeah, okay, we're getting

574
00:40:23.840 --> 00:40:29.119
older, I think. Yeah,
in that film, he's still absolutely got

575
00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:32.760
it, Like, hey, they've
sheened his muscles, he's shiny, he

576
00:40:32.880 --> 00:40:37.719
looks great, he's kicking around,
he punches a couple people. He looks

577
00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:43.599
really good. Miil and Jojovish obviously
like steals the show. She's outrageous.

578
00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:46.159
In all these examples where I'm talking
about hot like hot fuck boys, the

579
00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:52.320
women are absolutely just ungodly hotter.
Though it's wild to me when we're like

580
00:40:52.519 --> 00:40:54.159
we're like, yeah, Brendan Fraser
was pretty hot in the Mummy, but

581
00:40:54.280 --> 00:41:00.280
Rachel es Jesus, have you seen
Enemy at the Gates? No? Yes,

582
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:04.000
Stalingrad World War two movie with Jude
Law and Rachel Weiss. She gives

583
00:41:04.639 --> 00:41:07.440
she gives him an h J in
the middle of a bunch of like sleeping

584
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:15.800
Russian. Yes, Jude Law,
she judes him off. It's great.

585
00:41:16.519 --> 00:41:22.960
I love it. Yeah, that's
good. It's he staling with Ed Harris

586
00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:24.239
is the Germans. Isn't that the
one where the guys like, I'm going

587
00:41:24.320 --> 00:41:28.599
to show you where the sniper is
at the Ron Pearlman. Uh yeah.

588
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:34.239
So Ron Perlman is like his mentor, and he goes to like there's this

589
00:41:34.239 --> 00:41:36.800
thing with the snipers, like in
their spot or it's like if you're jump,

590
00:41:36.800 --> 00:41:38.079
if you're going out into the open
to the next cover, like you

591
00:41:38.119 --> 00:41:42.679
want to go first because the sniper
who's watching you doesn't have time to line

592
00:41:42.760 --> 00:41:45.280
up a shot against the first person. But then he knows you're there,

593
00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:49.679
so he's ready for the second person. So he's like he defers to Ron

594
00:41:49.719 --> 00:41:52.119
Peerlman. At one point he's like, all right, you can. He's

595
00:41:52.119 --> 00:41:53.760
like, it's your turn to go
first. To Ron Pearlman jumps across this

596
00:41:53.840 --> 00:41:58.199
gap and gets shot in the head
halfway through, and then Jude Law knows

597
00:41:58.199 --> 00:42:00.840
he's dealing with someone good. Oh
ship, but it's at Harris. I

598
00:42:00.880 --> 00:42:06.039
bet I'd like the movie. It's
awesome, sounds cool. I was jump

599
00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:12.679
before he's the mistake of rob jumping
across the gap? Is that ron forman,

600
00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:15.679
We're like jumping like a normal person. Why didn't he like dive or

601
00:42:15.840 --> 00:42:21.320
like, yeah, I would do? Would hell divers die a cartwheel over

602
00:42:22.199 --> 00:42:25.719
sniper? Would suspect that? To
clarify, they didn't know for sure in

603
00:42:25.800 --> 00:42:30.360
this instance that anybody was watching them. It's just a cautionary thing because they

604
00:42:30.400 --> 00:42:34.239
knew there were snipers and stelling gram
auctionary cart wheels the dangerous gap. Then

605
00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:37.519
he gets shot in the dick instead, and then he's still dead. Would

606
00:42:37.559 --> 00:42:43.519
you rather get shot in your head
or in your dick? I'd rather die

607
00:42:43.599 --> 00:42:51.760
right away. Co come back to
me. We'll break after the emails and

608
00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:54.400
then come back. Yeah, uner
meet the Gates is yeah. Bob Hoskins

609
00:42:54.440 --> 00:43:00.719
plays Nikita Khrushchev. Who else is
in it? Joseph not yes, Joseph

610
00:43:00.800 --> 00:43:09.559
finds fiends josephine jo there's a Joseph
Uh. I think it's Finn's finesse finds

611
00:43:10.320 --> 00:43:14.039
you recognize me, You've seen him. He's always a good like character actor.

612
00:43:15.400 --> 00:43:17.159
Oh that guy, yeah, yeah, yeah, he's like Jude Law's

613
00:43:17.280 --> 00:43:22.480
kind of admirer who becomes his propagandist, because part of the the whole point

614
00:43:22.480 --> 00:43:27.559
of Jude Law becoming this like,
uh, skilled hunter from Siberia coming in

615
00:43:27.559 --> 00:43:30.800
to save Stalingrad from the attacking Nazi
forces, occupying Nazi forces, that like

616
00:43:31.119 --> 00:43:35.159
it's very much about propaganda, like
putting him as the hero up and like

617
00:43:35.199 --> 00:43:38.480
giving Stalingrad hope. And then Ed
ed Harris's character, I forget his last

618
00:43:38.519 --> 00:43:43.119
name. The enemy sniper comes in. He's called in specifically to hunt Jude

619
00:43:43.159 --> 00:43:45.639
Law. He comes in on this
luxury train car with like he's got his

620
00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:50.360
like metal case of German cigars that
he's smoking Ed Harris, and he starts

621
00:43:50.360 --> 00:43:55.559
just annihilating people left and oh my
god, I love Harris. Movie becomes

622
00:43:55.599 --> 00:43:59.480
in like the half of the second
act and the third act, a duel

623
00:43:59.599 --> 00:44:02.079
in the City of Stealing between Jude
Law, this dude, this hunter from

624
00:44:02.079 --> 00:44:07.880
Siberia and Ed Harris, this like
upper crust Nazi sniper. Ooh, it's

625
00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:10.199
really cood. Okay, that sounds
interesting. I watch it maybe once a

626
00:44:10.280 --> 00:44:13.599
year. Still, when I just
see it pop up, it's I think

627
00:44:13.599 --> 00:44:16.760
it's on It's on some streaming thing. But yeah, Rachel Weiss is in

628
00:44:16.800 --> 00:44:22.000
it. Yeah. Oh. Also
you can see like where three of the

629
00:44:22.000 --> 00:44:27.239
Call of Duty games got oh sure
their missions? Yeah, the early two

630
00:44:27.239 --> 00:44:30.280
ones. Yeah. Yeah. But
Bob Hoskins gives a speech about how he's

631
00:44:30.320 --> 00:44:32.639
like, this is not Peter's or
no, I forget he said. Yeah,

632
00:44:32.639 --> 00:44:37.519
He's like, this is not Moscow, this is Stollingrad and Stalin is

633
00:44:37.559 --> 00:44:43.679
still alive. Uh, Stalin was
fucked up, dude, though I've heard

634
00:44:43.760 --> 00:44:52.079
yeah, and Savory, I haven't
heard. That's what I said. You

635
00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:58.079
guys want to talk about video games. Yeah, let's do that. Dude.

636
00:44:58.079 --> 00:45:00.400
The guy killed like fifty million people. It took me a beat and

637
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:04.159
I was like, wait, I
can press it. Yeah, he killed

638
00:45:04.360 --> 00:45:09.840
a lot of people, arguably more
than Hitler. She's gone from liking Nixon

639
00:45:09.880 --> 00:45:14.880
to be in a Stalin mark.
If I could, I wouldn't shoot you

640
00:45:14.920 --> 00:45:21.039
in the head and in the deck
do the head first? No, got

641
00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:27.039
Dan and Mary. I think fire
Escape listeners know that I myself spend a

642
00:45:27.199 --> 00:45:32.440
lot of time googling exotic trees and
how to import exotic trees and are you

643
00:45:32.519 --> 00:45:37.119
allowed to marry and or do other
stuff with exotic trees? And I know

644
00:45:37.159 --> 00:45:40.079
what most of you're probably thinking is, why don't you just use incognito mode.

645

and Mary. It is that time of

659
00:46:38.280 --> 00:46:42.079
year. It is spring, We're
almost to summer. It's a time of

660
00:46:42.159 --> 00:46:45.079
renewal, of rebirth. It's fresh, it's getting nice out here in New

661
00:46:45.159 --> 00:46:49.199
York at least, and I want
to drink. I can't wait go to

662
00:46:49.239 --> 00:46:52.360
France soon. And I've been brushing
up on my La Valley and Bordeaux wine

663
00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:53.480
knowledge with First Leaf. I've been
drinking a lot of shed and Blanc,

664
00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:57.360
a lot of Cabernet franc, really
good stuff that pairs well with food,

665
00:46:57.400 --> 00:47:00.639
but also just really nice to crush
outside by the river this time of year.

666
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:05.639
As America's most personalized wine company,
First Leaf takes all the worry and

667
00:47:05.679 --> 00:47:09.719
guesswork out of buying quality wines.
I got to answer some questions about whether

668
00:47:09.840 --> 00:47:15.119
I like certain notes, what kinds
of fruit I enjoy. It takes five

669
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:19.199
minutes, and then I got a
personalized wine profile, and then hand selected

670
00:47:19.239 --> 00:47:22.920
wines are delivered to the door within
a few days, with each bottle priced

671
00:47:22.960 --> 00:47:25.920
lower than what you'd pay at a
wine store. You can't go wrong with

672
00:47:25.920 --> 00:47:30.559
that. I love reconnecting with friends
and family over bottles of first Leaf wine,

673
00:47:30.559 --> 00:47:34.400
and I bet you'll feel that way
too, So get a person leaf

679
00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:07.719
let's talk about Animal. Well,
the game I see everybody talking about,

680
00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:12.840
and I hear that everybody has little
like different friend circles playing it and bouncing

681
00:48:12.840 --> 00:48:15.320
ideas off of each other. I
don't know if that's how you've been playing.

682
00:48:15.320 --> 00:48:17.840
What is going on with this game? I know Donkey's company published it?

683
00:48:19.079 --> 00:48:22.519
Yeah, which Mary, I saw
you were streaming some of this the

684
00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:27.679
other night status on it. How
far are you. Let's let's dance around

685
00:48:27.760 --> 00:48:32.039
the spoilers at all. I mean
it's not very well. I kind of

686
00:48:32.039 --> 00:48:35.440
don't think it is, because like
there's no story at all, and like

687
00:48:35.719 --> 00:48:39.280
the stuff you can do is like
I could mention an item. But as

688
00:48:39.280 --> 00:48:43.360
long as I'm not saying specifically,
well, use this, use okay,

689
00:48:43.760 --> 00:48:49.280
we can dance around this like Fez
or Outer Wilds was potential spoiler in mind

690
00:48:50.199 --> 00:48:52.599
for the Witness. You know,
yes, the Witness had that. It's

691
00:48:52.679 --> 00:48:57.800
kind of like the exciting part.
What makes this game so special is the

692
00:48:57.800 --> 00:49:04.920
aha moment because this is the most
dewey game of the year, And I

693
00:49:04.960 --> 00:49:08.679
am using that aggressively because no one
should say that, because it's fucking may

694
00:49:08.920 --> 00:49:13.360
and you shouldn't have said it last
episode. This game is so doing.

695
00:49:13.599 --> 00:49:22.119
It has no text or like any
written stuff at all. Week next none

696
00:49:22.239 --> 00:49:27.559
And when you get too dark to
see the map, pedantic piece of shit,

697
00:49:27.960 --> 00:49:30.599
you can draw on the map and
then I hate this. Actually I

698
00:49:30.599 --> 00:49:32.639
didn't know you could draw on the
map because it didn't explain it. There's

699
00:49:32.679 --> 00:49:36.159
like no copy in this game,
so they don't tell you how to do

700
00:49:36.199 --> 00:49:39.679
stuff. The very first time I
got an item, and I'm going to

701
00:49:39.760 --> 00:49:44.559
avoid spoilers, but the very first
time, my very first item, I

702
00:49:44.639 --> 00:49:50.960
thought that I was supposed to go
somewhere and like, you know, yes,

703
00:49:51.239 --> 00:49:57.079
I didn't know that it was an
item that I could use in the

704
00:49:57.119 --> 00:50:00.519
world. I didn't know that it
could be a weapon. I didn't know

705
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:04.599
that it could be used for traversal. I didn't know anything. I just

706
00:50:04.719 --> 00:50:08.400
got this item, and they never
explain anything. So when you start manipulating

707
00:50:08.400 --> 00:50:14.280
your items in fun ways and you
realize when you come across the puzzle and

708
00:50:14.280 --> 00:50:16.079
you're like, I don't know if
I can beat this. The first thing

709
00:50:16.119 --> 00:50:20.800
you do is just cycle through all
your items and just start throwing them in

710
00:50:20.840 --> 00:50:23.039
the space and be like, is
this how it's done? And you just

711
00:50:23.159 --> 00:50:28.920
fuck around until you find out,
and sometimes you'll learn things just by accident.

712
00:50:29.119 --> 00:50:31.760
It's it's like a meaning to use. Oh I got the item,

713
00:50:31.760 --> 00:50:34.559
what the fuck does this do?
And I'll press a button in a different

714
00:50:34.559 --> 00:50:37.239
way. I'll oh that can do
that. Holy shit, that changed.

715
00:50:37.239 --> 00:50:38.000
And then you look at the whole
match, which, by the way,

716
00:50:38.000 --> 00:50:40.920
way to give some context if you
don't know Animal, well, it's like

717
00:50:40.960 --> 00:50:45.960
a thirty four megabyte game. It
is, uh, it's a metroid Vania

718
00:50:46.239 --> 00:50:51.079
with like nob yeah. Yeah,
So it's like there, it's very puzzle

719
00:50:51.119 --> 00:50:52.880
heavy, so like there will be
enemies, but it's more like you walk

720
00:50:52.920 --> 00:50:57.079
into a room and oh, there's
this big animal here, and they're doing

721
00:50:57.119 --> 00:51:00.719
this to me, and that's scary. It's not about combos. It's not

722
00:51:00.719 --> 00:51:05.519
Prince of Persia, it's not Tales
of whatever Zoo. It's a very different

723
00:51:05.920 --> 00:51:07.559
you mentioned Fez, you know,
it is more along the lines of a

724
00:51:07.679 --> 00:51:13.760
Fez or a Witness, that type
of puzzle heavy like in a metroid Vania

725
00:51:13.800 --> 00:51:15.920
wrapping. It does have the map, it's got the map markers and stuff

726
00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:20.159
that kind of breath the while Prince
of Persias style thing, which is helpful,

727
00:51:21.360 --> 00:51:24.400
But there is a there's a deep
mystery to this game that keeps getting

728
00:51:24.719 --> 00:51:28.760
Like, for instance, this is
not a spoiler. Pretty early on you're

729
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:30.880
going to be exploring around and you'll
get a treasure chests. It's like,

730
00:51:30.920 --> 00:51:34.559
oh, I wonder what I'm getting
here? A new items like fucking egg?

731
00:51:35.079 --> 00:51:37.320
Like what is an egg? And
then it's like, oh, another

732
00:51:37.360 --> 00:51:39.519
treasure chests, Great, what's my
reward? And that's another egg. Like

733
00:51:39.880 --> 00:51:42.599
It's like for a while it was
like what the fuck am I doing with

734
00:51:42.639 --> 00:51:45.480
all these eggs? And then you
eventually find out. It never leads you,

735
00:51:45.480 --> 00:51:47.440
by the hand. Everyone I've talked
to you about this game has had

736
00:51:47.480 --> 00:51:52.519
a different path, different items they're
getting in different orders, different revelations.

737
00:51:52.840 --> 00:51:55.920
It's a it's pretty special. I
would say, what are you playing on

738
00:51:57.039 --> 00:52:00.239
Dan? Very very special? I
played on Steam. I saw credits.

739
00:52:01.679 --> 00:52:05.960
Now I know that there is more
there is. It seems like a game

740
00:52:05.960 --> 00:52:07.480
that can go about as deep as
you want it to go. I've heard

741
00:52:07.480 --> 00:52:09.840
of people saying they be eat it
in five hours. I've heard of people

742
00:52:09.840 --> 00:52:14.400
saying they're on fifty hours. That's
insane. How did you get credits?

743
00:52:14.480 --> 00:52:17.079
I think I'm on let me check
my Steam. I think I've let it

744
00:52:17.760 --> 00:52:22.639
runs. This probably isn't accurate because
I do this a lot. It says

745
00:52:22.719 --> 00:52:31.199
I'm at fifteen hours and I have
four flames. I see okay, I

746
00:52:31.239 --> 00:52:36.239
think you could see credits in the
near future. But again I saw credits.

747
00:52:36.280 --> 00:52:37.679
But I think there's If I want
to put another twenty hours in this

748
00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:39.559
game, I think there's enough stuff
there. It seems like there is.

749
00:52:39.639 --> 00:52:45.239
I one spent two hours getting a
fucking egg. Yeah, yes, just

750
00:52:45.760 --> 00:52:49.280
getting an egg. That was like
it was it seemed impossible. Have you

751
00:52:49.320 --> 00:52:52.000
ever also had this moment where you
like come across something and you're like,

752
00:52:52.320 --> 00:52:54.800
I must not have the item to
do this yet, and then you find

753
00:52:54.880 --> 00:53:00.280
out that you did have it all
along, you just need to putts around

754
00:53:00.360 --> 00:53:06.599
there a little bit more and figure
it out. It's so good, it's

755
00:53:06.679 --> 00:53:08.440
super satisfying. And there's also the
times too, where it's like you'll just

756
00:53:08.519 --> 00:53:12.280
kind of be stuck and then you'll
be in a room and you'll see or

757
00:53:12.320 --> 00:53:15.360
hear notice something and be like,
ah, I wonder if like could this

758
00:53:15.440 --> 00:53:19.000
do this? And sometimes you'll just
try something that you're no way this is

759
00:53:19.039 --> 00:53:22.039
going to fucking work, and then
something will happen You're like, whoa,

760
00:53:22.199 --> 00:53:24.360
holy shit, I did not expect
that and that changes everything, and then

761
00:53:24.559 --> 00:53:29.280
I need to go explore this entire
map again and need to change have this

762
00:53:29.480 --> 00:53:30.880
knowledge, like how is this going
to apply? I'll look at rooms in

763
00:53:30.960 --> 00:53:35.280
a different way now that I know
this is possible. It's really cool,

764
00:53:36.079 --> 00:53:42.239
really neat how it very subtly teaches
the player how to do something. I

765
00:53:42.239 --> 00:53:45.400
think the level design is quite well
done, where you will be in an

766
00:53:45.440 --> 00:53:51.000
area, an environment, and it
is very softly teaching you how to use

767
00:53:51.079 --> 00:53:54.079
a new skill, very metroidvenia right, and then you'll be in another area

768
00:53:54.239 --> 00:53:58.320
and that same skill won't work and
it turns out you need to use it

769
00:53:58.519 --> 00:54:01.559
with another item and combine them in
order to solve the puzzle. So the

770
00:54:01.599 --> 00:54:07.960
game is teaching you through mechanics,
you know. I absolutely love when games

771
00:54:07.000 --> 00:54:10.599
do this, when the game is
not literally telling you what to do,

772
00:54:10.679 --> 00:54:15.519
there's nothing clear. But a good
example of this would be a door and

773
00:54:15.599 --> 00:54:20.840
there's three markers on it and none
of them are lit, and there's three

774
00:54:20.880 --> 00:54:22.679
buttons in the space, and you're
like, all right, I got to

775
00:54:22.679 --> 00:54:28.079
push these buttons right. That tells
you everything you need to know as a

776
00:54:28.119 --> 00:54:34.559
player. So you don't need to
really, you don't really get told anything,

777
00:54:34.599 --> 00:54:37.519
and you have to actually be very
thoughtful when you're playing this game.

778
00:54:37.679 --> 00:54:40.360
What is the game trying to convince
me to do in this space? I

779
00:54:40.400 --> 00:54:46.079
was never casually just platforming in this
game. I was constantly stuck and needing

780
00:54:46.079 --> 00:54:51.119
to think about what the game was
trying to get me to solve. I

781
00:54:51.159 --> 00:54:53.480
also just want to call out it's
called animal. Well, we really haven't

782
00:54:53.519 --> 00:55:00.159
talked about the animals yet. It's
a very like fun concept where throughout the

783
00:55:00.199 --> 00:55:05.599
game you will come across various creatures. A lot of them are beautiful,

784
00:55:05.760 --> 00:55:08.079
some of them are mythical, some
of them are animals. You have one

785
00:55:08.159 --> 00:55:13.960
hundred percent seen in your daily life
like a dog. And they all have

786
00:55:14.079 --> 00:55:19.159
different behaviors that play around with the
mechanics of the game. So the items

787
00:55:19.159 --> 00:55:23.119
that you have may benefit you,
it may hurt you. It's really interesting.

788
00:55:23.159 --> 00:55:25.280
And some of the animals are like, I fucking hate that, and

789
00:55:25.360 --> 00:55:28.760
if you bring that out in front
of me, I will fucking kill you.

790
00:55:28.840 --> 00:55:30.599
I will ruin you, And all
of a sudden, yeah, I

791
00:55:30.599 --> 00:55:34.679
will destroy you. I will eat
your skin. And it's it's kind of

792
00:55:34.679 --> 00:55:37.840
a horror In some ways. I
don't think it's that scary, but there

793
00:55:37.920 --> 00:55:42.000
have been times where I screamed or
like yelled out loud because an animal reacted

794
00:55:42.000 --> 00:55:44.920
in such a hostile way and I
wasn't prepared and I got eaten alive.

795
00:55:45.440 --> 00:55:47.199
You're having somewhere and you're like,
I'm safe down here, and it's like

796
00:55:47.239 --> 00:55:51.360
you hear a horrible sound. You're
like, oh, exactly what you're talking

797
00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:54.440
about. That scene is fucking awful. I actually like I had someone else

798
00:55:54.760 --> 00:55:58.199
who was watching me play. I
was like, Hey, why don't you

799
00:55:58.280 --> 00:56:00.039
play this? It's really fun.
There's some thing I need under the ground

800
00:56:00.119 --> 00:56:04.360
here, Why don't why don't you
go get it and see what happens.

801
00:56:05.079 --> 00:56:08.679
It's a nightmare fuel. But there's
like a couple of really good examples of

802
00:56:08.679 --> 00:56:13.199
like a time where I went into
a scene and there were these beautiful,

803
00:56:13.599 --> 00:56:16.000
oh my god, I don't know
what they're called, long legged birds,

804
00:56:16.639 --> 00:56:23.159
stork. I think they're prettier than
ostriches. They're like herons. I think

805
00:56:23.159 --> 00:56:29.519
they're herons, like long legged birds, and stop guessing birds and I have

806
00:56:30.599 --> 00:56:34.639
gold benches. I'm going to accept
herons and I'm going to move on.

807
00:56:34.760 --> 00:56:42.880
There's no reason to name. But
you're just trying to stay breasts anyway.

808
00:56:43.079 --> 00:56:51.719
You walk doves have morning boners.
I'll also accept mourning doves. You're walking

809
00:56:51.719 --> 00:56:54.760
across these birds and you're not in
the space with them yet, you're just

810
00:56:54.800 --> 00:56:59.280
seeing them, and they're actually very
beautiful, and it's kind of just this

811
00:57:00.400 --> 00:57:02.920
visual spectacle. It reminds me a
little bit of hollow night have Sometimes it'll

812
00:57:02.920 --> 00:57:07.239
like let you see a new space
and how pretty it is, and then

813
00:57:07.679 --> 00:57:12.599
uh, and then you can't interact
with it yet. Get your hand off

814
00:57:12.599 --> 00:57:15.119
that motherfucking soundboard. I don't want
to see both your hands. I want

815
00:57:15.119 --> 00:57:20.440
them both in the air. I
want them in the air. I want

816
00:57:20.800 --> 00:57:24.360
your hands. I want them up
in the air, the hands in the

817
00:57:24.400 --> 00:57:28.840
air. I'm not going to have
this conversation with you. You mentioned hollow

818
00:57:29.000 --> 00:57:34.559
Night, and I just think we
can both agree that this is clearly when

819
00:57:34.599 --> 00:57:37.000
your head. Dan is right,
dan is right, Dan is right,

820
00:57:37.239 --> 00:57:44.840
Dan is right, dan is dan
is right, Strong and stupid. Sorry,

821
00:57:45.079 --> 00:57:49.440
I'm gonna have a panic attack.
I'm gonna need steroids so that I

822
00:57:49.480 --> 00:57:53.960
can live from these episodes because I
am so upset from doing this to me.

823
00:57:54.159 --> 00:58:00.960
Stop it. The birds birds.
You're walking by it, and the

824
00:58:01.000 --> 00:58:05.840
birds are really pretty, but you
can't interact with them. And then like

825
00:58:06.199 --> 00:58:09.840
three hours later it turns out that
you can interact with the birds in a

826
00:58:09.880 --> 00:58:15.239
later area. And so the game's
teasing you constantly with like really cool areas

827
00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:17.239
that you can't interact with yet.
But as you progress the game, you

828
00:58:17.280 --> 00:58:21.440
do get to see all these cool
spaces and interact with them and like interact

829
00:58:21.440 --> 00:58:23.679
with all these funky animals. It's
really cool. Have you also done the

830
00:58:23.719 --> 00:58:27.639
thing where it's like, as you're
trying to kind of get the feeling of

831
00:58:27.679 --> 00:58:30.000
every animal, it's like there's always
the formers, Like I'll just throw firecrackers

832
00:58:30.039 --> 00:58:32.840
at it and see what the hell
happens. Yeah, see what they think

833
00:58:32.840 --> 00:58:37.920
of fire crackers. You have to
you have to try different items. One

834
00:58:37.920 --> 00:58:39.199
of my favorite ones is like,
it's so hard to do this, so

835
00:58:39.280 --> 00:58:42.719
spoiled. I don't think this is
a big spoil But there's an animal that

836
00:58:42.760 --> 00:58:45.039
hates bubbles, and it's so funny
to me, Like, it's just a

837
00:58:45.039 --> 00:58:49.800
bubble hat it animal that bubbles.
Yeah, it's a bird. It's not.

838
00:58:50.239 --> 00:58:52.440
It's not just it's a different bird. I think it's name. It's

839
00:58:52.480 --> 00:59:01.800
more birds for me. You're spoiling
it more no bard owls now borrowed house,

840
00:59:01.880 --> 00:59:07.360
black capped chickaties. It's got a
long beak like a poker flamingo,

841
00:59:07.440 --> 00:59:13.320
woodpecker, ostriche. I think it's
like a hummingbird. A hummingbird also have

842
00:59:13.360 --> 00:59:19.320
long beaks, but they have a
Yeah. Anyway, Uh, it's just

843
00:59:19.320 --> 00:59:22.360
funny to watch how the animals interact
with the world, whether or not they

844
00:59:22.360 --> 00:59:24.280
hate you, whether or not they
like you. It's very interesting to me,

845
00:59:24.360 --> 00:59:29.000
and it's also very It's kind of
like being dropped off in a zoo

846
00:59:29.239 --> 00:59:30.920
and you're like, oh, I
don't know how these animals are going interact

847
00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:35.079
with me, and you gotta figure
it out. Sometimes they eat you alive

848
00:59:35.199 --> 00:59:39.880
and sometimes they help you. It's
it's really it's really uh creative, and

849
00:59:40.280 --> 00:59:45.840
it makes me feel absolutely like I'm
just I'm in death's door and I'm hoping

850
00:59:45.840 --> 00:59:49.519
what will happen, but you never
know, I'm predicting. It's also really

851
00:59:49.559 --> 00:59:52.239
fun to talk to people who are
further along than you and be like you

852
00:59:52.239 --> 00:59:54.079
can just kind of like you don't
want spoilers, but you be like,

853
00:59:54.239 --> 00:59:57.360
hey, am I barking up the
wrong tree here? Or hey, I

854
00:59:57.440 --> 00:59:59.719
just got this thing. Am I
supposed to know what to do with this?

855
00:59:59.840 --> 01:00:01.199
Or is there a way to get
over here faster? And like I

856
01:00:01.199 --> 01:00:04.559
love you know, the friends I've
been talking to about it, they're like,

857
01:00:04.800 --> 01:00:07.360
oh, maybe you know, maybe
don't worry about that yet, or

858
01:00:07.400 --> 01:00:10.719
oh maybe you've got something here,
like oh maybe tried this general realm of

859
01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:14.519
activity with it, and you know, just kind of like softly pushing you

860
01:00:14.559 --> 01:00:16.360
towards solutions rather than just like what
do I do with they? Yo?

861
01:00:16.679 --> 01:00:21.079
I think that's really nice too.
I had someone when I was streaming it.

862
01:00:21.199 --> 01:00:25.880
I was stuck on a puzzle and
someone in my chat said, I'm

863
01:00:25.880 --> 01:00:31.440
not telling you anything except you don't
need anything, and so what he's basically

864
01:00:31.519 --> 01:00:37.280
saying is is like you have everything
you need, you can figure this out.

865
01:00:37.559 --> 01:00:42.800
Just take your time and over you're
against it for a bit. Sometimes

866
01:00:42.880 --> 01:00:45.559
you know it takes twenty thirty minutes
for you to like figure it out.

867
01:00:45.559 --> 01:00:47.960
But the AHAs are really good,
they really are. This game has some

868
01:00:49.559 --> 01:00:52.760
I just dinked my mic. This
game has some really good AHAs. So

869
01:00:52.880 --> 01:00:57.360
I really do recommend this game.
I think it is very up there for

870
01:00:57.400 --> 01:01:00.480
me. I have not beat it. My negatives are that there's a couple

871
01:01:01.559 --> 01:01:05.679
Here's the thing too, I'm not
sure Dan if my experience is the same

872
01:01:05.679 --> 01:01:07.880
as yours, and I can't go
over this without spoiling it. My negatives

873
01:01:07.920 --> 01:01:12.719
are that there's been a couple things
the game has asked me to do that

874
01:01:12.800 --> 01:01:15.960
I think are absurdly hard. Like
I think they are. You have to

875
01:01:15.960 --> 01:01:19.119
be so freaking good at the game
in order to get through it. That

876
01:01:19.159 --> 01:01:23.960
it seems platform related brutal. It's
platforming and enemy related, like there's an

877
01:01:24.079 --> 01:01:29.360
enemy and platforming simultaneous. I think
it seems too hard. Okay, I'm

878
01:01:29.360 --> 01:01:31.360
going to be very vague here.
Does it have something to do with getting

879
01:01:31.400 --> 01:01:36.760
something to another place. Yep,
well okay, that was hard, but

880
01:01:36.800 --> 01:01:40.000
you can do it. I it
just it's really difficult. And I was

881
01:01:40.039 --> 01:01:45.280
surprised how hard the game is.
I had to spend some time trying different

882
01:01:45.360 --> 01:01:47.199
courses and you know, routes that
I was going to take and stuff,

883
01:01:47.199 --> 01:01:50.800
and eventually, like I was like, oh I can do this. Yeah,

884
01:01:50.880 --> 01:01:53.679
yeah, I believe you. I
think, uh, I've been I

885
01:01:53.920 --> 01:01:59.800
don't know if being hard is a
good uh and you know negative of this

886
01:01:59.840 --> 01:02:01.079
game. I think what I'm saying
is is like there were times where I

887
01:02:01.119 --> 01:02:07.039
was like, this challenge seems unnecessarily
cruel to the player. Sure, yeah,

888
01:02:07.320 --> 01:02:09.480
just so a massive spike because everything
else is like what a fun little

889
01:02:09.480 --> 01:02:13.679
puzzle. This bird does not like
bubbles. I have to figure this one

890
01:02:13.679 --> 01:02:16.480
out. The other ones are like
I get murdered and it takes me fifteen

891
01:02:16.519 --> 01:02:20.719
minutes to get back into this area. Goddamn it. Oh I know what

892
01:02:20.800 --> 01:02:22.199
bird you're talking about that hates bubbles. I know what you're talking about now.

893
01:02:22.280 --> 01:02:27.119
Yeah, And there are like early
on it is kind of frustrating,

894
01:02:27.199 --> 01:02:30.800
like some of the like checkpoint type
stuff and getting around, but like through

895
01:02:30.920 --> 01:02:34.679
learning things, there are ways that
kind of make things better as far as

896
01:02:34.679 --> 01:02:38.559
that stuff goes, Yeah, it's
it's fine. I really do recommend this

897
01:02:38.639 --> 01:02:45.679
game. I think it is this
year's puzzle experience that everyone should try.

898
01:02:45.960 --> 01:02:52.159
I absolutely, very very much recommend
this game. I would compare it.

899
01:02:52.199 --> 01:02:54.519
I know this kind of sounds weird, but I recommend it a little bit

900
01:02:54.559 --> 01:03:00.920
to Cocoon. Oh as far as
like a lot of yeah, I could

901
01:03:00.159 --> 01:03:02.199
see it where it's like, it's
not leading by the hand, You're gonna

902
01:03:02.239 --> 01:03:05.360
learn the mechanics, so you're gonna
figure out the puzzles on your own.

903
01:03:05.559 --> 01:03:07.320
Yeah, it's I could see that. Yeah, there's no portals, it's

904
01:03:07.360 --> 01:03:12.559
not a portally thing. But actually, never mind, all right, let's

905
01:03:12.639 --> 01:03:16.119
move on. I accidentally I'll spile
the game. Just yeah, the no

906
01:03:16.239 --> 01:03:22.519
communication, here's an environment solve.
It is like very much this game,

907
01:03:22.599 --> 01:03:28.280
and I think it's brilliant. I
think it's extraordinarily well made. And I

908
01:03:28.280 --> 01:03:31.800
can't wait to see what this dev
does next, because I think this is

909
01:03:31.920 --> 01:03:37.400
like one of those singular or like
solo dev situations, like this is a

910
01:03:37.519 --> 01:03:42.079
very small it is very small team. Congrats to them. And also,

911
01:03:42.239 --> 01:03:45.320
hey, with Donkey, you know, like he announced that thing and saw

912
01:03:45.320 --> 01:03:46.480
a lot of Twitter experts coming out
of the you know and be like,

913
01:03:46.480 --> 01:03:50.559
oh, you know YouTuber things.
He can come do this thing and knows

914
01:03:50.599 --> 01:03:52.800
how to public and it's like,
look, obviously it's not. I'm sure

915
01:03:52.800 --> 01:03:54.280
that people are helping him. He
had a great developer working on it,

916
01:03:54.320 --> 01:03:58.679
but like he picked a good one. The first one out of the gate

917
01:03:58.760 --> 01:04:00.519
is a success, has off to
him. Prove them wrong, fuck him,

918
01:04:00.559 --> 01:04:05.559
you know, like good for good
for Donkey. I am foreign era

919
01:04:06.000 --> 01:04:13.920
where a YouTuber can replace the suits
of a publisher that says that I will

920
01:04:13.960 --> 01:04:17.039
accept that. I will not accept
everyone congratulating Donkey for what a good game

921
01:04:17.119 --> 01:04:23.639
is. When I fucking single dev
made this game and killed it, all

922
01:04:23.760 --> 01:04:28.840
praise should go to the dev and
Donkey was the suit that maybe helped bankroll

923
01:04:28.920 --> 01:04:30.679
him and marketed the ship out of
it, and for that I will give

924
01:04:30.719 --> 01:04:33.519
him absolute credit. But I mean, there is a curation thing and knowing

925
01:04:33.519 --> 01:04:35.880
which ones to pick and the first
one is very important and stuff, and

926
01:04:35.880 --> 01:04:39.000
like yeah, like he did not
make the game, that credit goes to

927
01:04:39.039 --> 01:04:41.719
the dev. But like Billy,
yeah, so Dan, what are you

928
01:04:42.599 --> 01:04:48.599
didn't? What was Mary saying recently
about her Oh yeah, yeah, Yeah,

929
01:04:48.679 --> 01:04:53.360
she doesn't like him. She wants
everything to be like Assassin's Creed level

930
01:04:53.400 --> 01:04:55.960
dev team, and she says,
once the game's out the door, get

931
01:04:56.000 --> 01:04:58.199
rid of them. They're out the
door. Do you ever say that?

932
01:04:58.519 --> 01:05:01.000
That's what she says. I don't
even off have ever beaten an Assassin' screen

933
01:05:01.079 --> 01:05:04.519
my entire life. For people that
aren't on the patron level, they don't

934
01:05:04.519 --> 01:05:09.480
see the video of you wearing the
shirt that says crunch is good. That

935
01:05:09.840 --> 01:05:15.360
suck my dick. Why do you
have any of my good soundbites? You

936
01:05:15.440 --> 01:05:20.679
gotta get a Nixon one. Now
we need stalin things. Your voice to

937
01:05:20.719 --> 01:05:27.639
a AI, well, now he's
got dick clear as day, yelled use

938
01:05:27.679 --> 01:05:33.880
it, learn it, learn it, suck it. I hate you your

939
01:05:33.920 --> 01:05:38.480
live laughlows. I just want to
get a pillow. What's our next piece

940
01:05:38.480 --> 01:05:42.599
of merch? Everything you just said
incursive on like a pillow. Live it,

941
01:05:42.679 --> 01:05:46.719
love it, learn it, suck
it. That's our beach towel.

942
01:05:49.280 --> 01:05:59.000
Their next Patoo's in the summer catalog. In that script, all right,

943
01:06:00.360 --> 01:06:04.559
Mary, you tried out the game. Dan recommended many shoot adventures I did.

944
01:06:05.400 --> 01:06:11.320
I also streamed this game for a
little over three and a half hours.

945
01:06:11.360 --> 01:06:16.920
It is as was mentioned to me, it is a Zelda bullet hell

946
01:06:17.119 --> 01:06:24.719
adventure that looks so simple. The
audio is disappointing to me. I think

947
01:06:24.760 --> 01:06:29.760
that from a game design perspective,
it's very well done. It is so

948
01:06:30.079 --> 01:06:35.679
clean. You are basically learning shortcuts
in this environment, and you are upgrading

949
01:06:36.079 --> 01:06:44.480
your little shooter cannon to have more
bullets. Faster bullets make you speedier,

950
01:06:45.159 --> 01:06:49.559
better dodging. Very fun to traverse
the area and especially get into a new

951
01:06:49.679 --> 01:06:55.400
space and figure out what it's trying
to teach you or what the new skill

952
01:06:55.480 --> 01:06:58.840
is. This is again very Zelda
or Dungeony, where you get a new

953
01:06:58.880 --> 01:07:00.920
skill, then it puts you an
environl where all of a sudden you can

954
01:07:01.039 --> 01:07:03.639
jump around and use it, and
it's teaching you to use it properly.

955
01:07:03.679 --> 01:07:06.480
I got lost a couple of times
where I was I have no idea where

956
01:07:06.480 --> 01:07:10.960
this is what this game wants me
to do next, or where it wants

957
01:07:11.000 --> 01:07:14.440
me to go. That can be
a little frustrating, but I always figured

958
01:07:14.440 --> 01:07:17.679
it out. I always solved it. I do think it's a good game.

959
01:07:18.159 --> 01:07:23.039
I have not beaten it. I
don't know animal well has taken up

960
01:07:23.039 --> 01:07:27.719
all of my time, and I
think like Animal Well is absolutely my shit.

961
01:07:28.239 --> 01:07:31.480
I think that Mini Shoot Adventures has
its moments, and I will agree

962
01:07:31.519 --> 01:07:34.519
it is a solid game. Yeah. If you would have gone to my

963
01:07:34.559 --> 01:07:39.559
head ask like, okay, you
haven't played either Animal Well or Mini Shoot

964
01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:42.719
Adventures. Which game do you think
Mary is going to like more? I

965
01:07:42.760 --> 01:07:47.159
do think I would say Animal Well
is definitely more your style. But yeah,

966
01:07:47.199 --> 01:07:49.679
I mean you can see why.
Yeah, it was a big I

967
01:07:49.719 --> 01:07:55.719
can see why you recommended it.
And if it wasn't for you stealing my

968
01:07:55.840 --> 01:07:59.480
voice and use it against me,
I would even give you some credit.

969
01:07:59.519 --> 01:08:02.880
But fortunately, because you have harmed
my trust, I will just say it's

970
01:08:02.920 --> 01:08:06.400
not a bad game, and I
appreciate the recommendation. Well, I can

971
01:08:06.519 --> 01:08:09.440
earn it back by saying, like, you know it is I think the

972
01:08:09.480 --> 01:08:16.840
indie game of the year. Damn
right, it's not trust not even it's

973
01:08:16.840 --> 01:08:20.640
specifically why I said that Animal Well
is really dewey because I think they do

974
01:08:20.680 --> 01:08:25.119
the same thing, which is PLoP
you in a world with no text and

975
01:08:25.159 --> 01:08:27.640
be like figure it out. I
do. Well. I think you have

976
01:08:27.680 --> 01:08:32.239
to agree that Animal Well is way
more thinking than Many Shoot. It's more

977
01:08:32.279 --> 01:08:39.640
thinky, But that has nothing to
do with Dewey's. It's hoey. A

978
01:08:39.680 --> 01:08:44.399
Dewey can be a thinkye, yeah
do and think you're not talking about yeah.

979
01:08:44.479 --> 01:08:47.800
Deys and thinks aren't mutually exclusive.
It can be a Dewey think them

980
01:08:48.199 --> 01:08:53.239
that's right, And this one is
a think them that also has you do.

981
01:08:53.560 --> 01:08:57.479
The thing that we're avoiding is when
it has a ship ton of text

982
01:08:57.520 --> 01:09:00.399
and you're like, I don't want
you to talk to me. You talk

983
01:09:00.439 --> 01:09:05.079
sitting here listening either talking many shoot
straight up Dewey an well is dewey think

984
01:09:05.520 --> 01:09:10.600
this is not This is not three
things. This isn't a triangle. It's

985
01:09:10.680 --> 01:09:15.039
Dewey talky. It is just a
line of Dewey and talky. But maybe

986
01:09:15.039 --> 01:09:20.239
it's a triangle for muscular skinny.
But it's like maybe we throw a thinkum

987
01:09:20.279 --> 01:09:25.760
in there. No, this isn't
a fucking rhombus. It's just a lot.

988
01:09:26.640 --> 01:09:30.159
I don't I don't care. You
would have added one if you could.

989
01:09:30.520 --> 01:09:33.920
It's either Dewey or it's talky,
and I'm saying it's very dewey.

990
01:09:34.159 --> 01:09:36.239
Can we have a best think them
of the year, A game of the

991
01:09:36.319 --> 01:09:45.840
year danyes? What's the anti thinkham
though? Dewey Vampire Survivors. Yeah,

992
01:09:45.920 --> 01:09:50.159
well you gotta kind of plan some
stuff out there. You're your build,

993
01:09:50.439 --> 01:09:58.680
which, by the way, I'm
playing that right like that transition Daddy Mikey's

994
01:09:58.680 --> 01:10:00.960
getting good at this kind of do
way best. The kids are arguing,

995
01:10:01.039 --> 01:10:04.479
Daddy's got to step in and transit
show. Just think come, I added

996
01:10:04.479 --> 01:10:08.319
it to the dock Per Game of
the Year. Okay, yes, I

997
01:10:08.359 --> 01:10:13.680
am playing Operation Guns for Vampire Survivors. It is a good DLC for Vampire

998
01:10:13.720 --> 01:10:16.800
Survivors. Did not love the among
us one. Did not think the aesthetics

999
01:10:16.840 --> 01:10:21.239
or the weapons really worked with the
Vampire Survivors for that. This is Contra.

1000
01:10:21.359 --> 01:10:24.600
It's got contra music, it's got
contrac characters, got a bunch of

1001
01:10:24.600 --> 01:10:29.239
suff Contra hardcore, my favorite Contra. All the weapons make perfect sense.

1002
01:10:29.279 --> 01:10:31.119
It's spread guns, it's homing missiles, it's things that you're leveling up and

1003
01:10:31.159 --> 01:10:36.680
evolving, Contra sprites, Contra areas. It's just it is. They put

1004
01:10:36.720 --> 01:10:40.439
Contra onto Vampire Survivors. How the
fuck is that not going to be good?

1005
01:10:40.479 --> 01:10:47.960
Like Castlevania onto Dead Cells two years
ago Tasmania. Yeah, that was

1006
01:10:48.000 --> 01:10:51.760
it. That was deal C for
Dead Cells, right, correct. Is

1007
01:10:51.840 --> 01:10:55.840
this man that was so much fun? Yeah? That was good. That

1008
01:10:55.880 --> 01:10:58.279
was really smart. Yeah, yeah, it's it's similar. It's just this

1009
01:10:58.319 --> 01:11:00.399
one that you just hear the Pitchford
and you're just like, oh yeah,

1010
01:11:00.399 --> 01:11:02.199
of course, of course that makes
perfect sense. So it's got me playing

1011
01:11:02.199 --> 01:11:05.760
more Vampire Survivors. That's never a
bad thing. It does the thing where

1012
01:11:05.840 --> 01:11:09.439
like sections some of it off into
its own like little adventure thing if you

1013
01:11:09.439 --> 01:11:13.640
don't want to just like be in
the big general pool of the main menu.

1014
01:11:13.960 --> 01:11:15.600
But yeah, I feel like Vampire
Survivors, you like contract, it's

1015
01:11:15.600 --> 01:11:18.680
a no brainer. Still good on
steam Deck, It's like you, oh

1016
01:11:18.760 --> 01:11:21.960
yeah, definitely. Does it age
well in the sense that, like the

1017
01:11:23.039 --> 01:11:29.000
game is casual and simple. Do
you feel like you've played it or are

1018
01:11:29.039 --> 01:11:31.439
you like excited to go back into
it, because that's like my hesitation is,

1019
01:11:31.479 --> 01:11:34.880
like I've beaten that game, don't. I don't have much more I

1020
01:11:34.880 --> 01:11:39.159
want to get into. I'm not
at the like obsession level I was when

1021
01:11:39.159 --> 01:11:41.640
it first came out, because it's
like, you play enough of that game,

1022
01:11:41.640 --> 01:11:44.039
and I've played through it on like
three consoles. Now, yeah,

1023
01:11:44.079 --> 01:11:46.199
you kind of know how this goes
where it's like if I get a good

1024
01:11:46.199 --> 01:11:49.159
build and I'm just destroying everything and
I barely have to move. But it's

1025
01:11:49.159 --> 01:11:53.439
like, okay, well I got
a winning run here and it's only twelve

1026
01:11:53.439 --> 01:11:56.199
minutes in, so I guess I'll
just walk around for you know, eighteen

1027
01:11:56.199 --> 01:12:00.399
more minutes. So like it's a
long time. Thirty minutes too, is

1028
01:12:00.600 --> 01:12:01.520
it is? And so like,
I mean, once you played enough for

1029
01:12:01.640 --> 01:12:04.680
you kind of know what you're getting
into, but like it's ideal, like,

1030
01:12:04.800 --> 01:12:06.920
oh, I'm watching something in the
background, I'm you know, I'm

1031
01:12:06.960 --> 01:12:14.439
playing. I'm podcasting something. Yeah, yeah, you podcasting listening. I

1032
01:12:14.439 --> 01:12:17.840
guess podcasting implies you could. Is
that what that hand motion has been this

1033
01:12:17.880 --> 01:12:23.079
whole time? Never a hand motion? Yeah, you're like you do that

1034
01:12:23.119 --> 01:12:26.199
a lot, and then you do
the Yeah, you're being filthy with your

1035
01:12:26.279 --> 01:12:31.279
jokes. Now, No, you've
got the soundboard. Oh that's the nice

1036
01:12:31.319 --> 01:12:34.760
that's the one, okay, because
that might makes that noise all the time

1037
01:12:36.800 --> 01:12:45.720
doing it. Oh he's not here, Well, it's good playing, stupid

1038
01:12:45.760 --> 01:12:50.920
man. That's a transition. Another
thing you last I talked to you,

1039
01:12:50.920 --> 01:12:55.199
you're gonna wait on full release for
Haities two. But looks like you caved.

1040
01:12:55.760 --> 01:12:58.399
No not really. I think I
did it exactly the way I want

1041
01:12:58.439 --> 01:13:00.840
to, Like, I wanted to
play it enough towards like everybody seems very

1042
01:13:00.840 --> 01:13:03.520
excited about it. I want to
get a sense of it. So I'm

1043
01:13:03.560 --> 01:13:06.920
waiting till the whole release. That's
what I do. So do you emit?

1044
01:13:08.000 --> 01:13:10.960
You caved? I played about an
hour a bit. I peeked in

1045
01:13:11.000 --> 01:13:15.119
the door. I was like,
I don't think I caved. I don't

1046
01:13:15.119 --> 01:13:16.680
consider that a cave. That was
a curios I said, you said you

1047
01:13:16.680 --> 01:13:19.199
were going to wait until one point
zero and then you didn't. If that

1048
01:13:19.239 --> 01:13:23.720
constitutes caving, then I caved.
Thank you. Yes, Mary Rry got

1049
01:13:23.720 --> 01:13:27.399
it. I got you a sound
clip thank you, very specific use case

1050
01:13:28.399 --> 01:13:31.800
saying like the stupidest ship. He
says so many stupid things all the time.

1051
01:13:31.920 --> 01:13:36.560
If I wanted to, if I
wanted to have a soundboard of Dan

1052
01:13:38.399 --> 01:13:45.399
saying dumb things about how he's horny
for games and what I have it?

1053
01:13:45.479 --> 01:13:53.239
Yeah, like out of a can
it exists? It exist? How is

1054
01:13:53.279 --> 01:13:56.079
it so far? I see why
people are enjoying it. I see why

1055
01:13:56.079 --> 01:13:59.680
they're excited about it. It is
for an early access thing, technically it

1056
01:13:59.760 --> 01:14:02.840
is. It feels pretty far along. It's the moment to moment combat and

1057
01:14:02.880 --> 01:14:05.760
everything, and even like the hub
world and the character interactions and stuff seem

1058
01:14:05.880 --> 01:14:11.319
like mostly there, and so yeah, I was really enjoying it and kind

1059
01:14:11.319 --> 01:14:14.680
of getting into the vibe aginn of
like oh yeah, here's or the routine

1060
01:14:14.720 --> 01:14:15.840
of like, okay, this is
it's fun building these out and like,

1061
01:14:15.880 --> 01:14:18.560
oh, I've got this. These
powers are working really well together. I

1062
01:14:18.600 --> 01:14:21.800
was remembering why I loved Hades.
But then it's like I loaded it up

1063
01:14:21.840 --> 01:14:25.119
one time and I saw they had
a thing where oh, click to see

1064
01:14:25.159 --> 01:14:27.399
content roadmap, and it's like,
oh, by the end of the year,

1065
01:14:27.439 --> 01:14:30.079
we'll have a whole new area and
then we're going to build out customization

1066
01:14:30.159 --> 01:14:31.319
stuff and then we're going to have
this and that and balancing, and it's

1067
01:14:31.319 --> 01:14:34.000
like, okay, well, yeah, I kind of want to play when

1068
01:14:34.000 --> 01:14:38.720
that's all done, you know,
like I've seen enough towards like I've reignited

1069
01:14:38.800 --> 01:14:43.359
my excitement for Hades, but I'm
okay with putting it on the shelf until

1070
01:14:43.359 --> 01:14:48.319
it's done. The characters seem really
hot, and I rated someone at the

1071
01:14:48.399 --> 01:14:54.199
end of my stream who was playing
it, and that boss fight looked pretty

1072
01:14:54.239 --> 01:14:57.760
intense. And so I think,
you know, obviously fans of the first

1073
01:14:57.760 --> 01:15:00.319
one are going to enjoy that.
It's going to give you some like really

1074
01:15:00.359 --> 01:15:03.319
intense boss fights where you're gonna have
to have a really good build in order

1075
01:15:03.399 --> 01:15:06.479
to survive, very chaotic, a
lots of shit on the screen. At

1076
01:15:06.479 --> 01:15:11.079
the same time, I think it
seems like it's just going to be more

1077
01:15:11.119 --> 01:15:14.920
of the good good and that sounds
great to me, But I would rather

1078
01:15:15.000 --> 01:15:17.239
wait until it's until it's ready.
Yep, yep. I think we're in

1079
01:15:17.239 --> 01:15:24.319
the same boat. It'll be good. What is Pools? It's a fucking

1080
01:15:24.399 --> 01:15:27.680
game where Mary. I think this
has been an interesting one for you to

1081
01:15:27.720 --> 01:15:31.520
go in blind. Yeah, I
have heard about this someone, someone at

1082
01:15:31.520 --> 01:15:36.239
a party two weeks ago told me. Let me tell you what they said

1083
01:15:36.239 --> 01:15:39.760
to me, and you tell me
if this is accurate. Okay. I

1084
01:15:39.800 --> 01:15:42.039
was at a party two weeks ago
and a guy was like, I've been

1085
01:15:42.079 --> 01:15:45.000
playing Pools. It's fucking crazy.
And I was like, what is it?

1086
01:15:45.039 --> 01:15:47.439
And he was like, it's a
game that's kind of like playing a

1087
01:15:47.520 --> 01:15:56.880
dream where you're slowly descending into madness
and it is a scary game but nothing

1088
01:15:57.039 --> 01:16:00.399
happens, but it will mortify you. And I was like, what does

1089
01:16:00.439 --> 01:16:04.439
that even mean? Like what happens
in and he was like nothing, I

1090
01:16:04.960 --> 01:16:08.920
yeah, yeah, I think they
prepared you pretty well for it. It

1091
01:16:09.000 --> 01:16:12.920
is not necessarily a jump scare thing. It is more of like a sense

1092
01:16:12.960 --> 01:16:15.279
of unease. And I hadn't thought
of it in terms of like a dream

1093
01:16:15.840 --> 01:16:18.399
like, but it is kind of
like a dream. It's like what is

1094
01:16:18.439 --> 01:16:20.560
this place? Where am I?
Why am I just walking around all these

1095
01:16:20.560 --> 01:16:25.560
like hallways with pools and you're just
walking through like a bunch of like Waiste

1096
01:16:25.600 --> 01:16:29.800
high water and going down dark hallways
and just kind of seeing weird things that

1097
01:16:29.840 --> 01:16:32.199
don't seem like a real place.
And there's you know, it's not enemies.

1098
01:16:32.399 --> 01:16:35.840
I haven't beaten in, but it's
just like it's, uh, it's

1099
01:16:35.960 --> 01:16:42.840
very wet. It's very it's a
very wet game. It's a lot of

1100
01:16:42.840 --> 01:16:45.479
walking around to be like what am
I doing here? Where am I going?

1101
01:16:45.520 --> 01:16:46.600
And then something will happen and you'll
be like, wait, I want

1102
01:16:46.600 --> 01:16:48.960
to go that way? Was that
something I I'd been there? And then

1103
01:16:49.000 --> 01:16:51.640
something different will happen. It's like, oh, what is this fucking place?

1104
01:16:51.760 --> 01:16:57.119
Can I do this? And like
it's unlike anything I've played. I

1105
01:16:57.159 --> 01:17:01.520
would say, it's it's you're just
walking around pool, but it is uneasy.

1106
01:17:02.000 --> 01:17:09.279
What's the point taking in the space. I don't think there's anything,

1107
01:17:09.279 --> 01:17:11.800
there's nothing to figure out. I
don't think there's a story that's going to

1108
01:17:11.920 --> 01:17:16.000
like give you answers or anything.
There's no dialogue, there's no context.

1109
01:17:16.279 --> 01:17:23.199
It's just it's all about just this
your surroundings, and just how kind of

1110
01:17:23.239 --> 01:17:27.479
creepy it is. It's it's it's
like like not a nightmare, but it's

1111
01:17:27.560 --> 01:17:33.680
just a fucked up fever dream in
why nightmare kind of creepy. It's just

1112
01:17:33.800 --> 01:17:40.159
kind of creepy in these big,
open wet rooms and there's holes and hallways

1113
01:17:40.600 --> 01:17:44.199
and uh, it is hard to
describe, but it is. It was

1114
01:17:44.279 --> 01:17:46.560
different enough that I was like,
I want to try this out for myself,

1115
01:17:46.560 --> 01:17:50.039
and I was like, Okay,
this is an interesting experiment here weird.

1116
01:17:50.359 --> 01:17:53.880
I mean, that person who was
telling me about it was like,

1117
01:17:53.960 --> 01:17:59.680
I really do recommend that you give
it a shot. But it's just so

1118
01:17:59.800 --> 01:18:04.560
hard, hard when people can't describe
it like with any words. It's a

1119
01:18:04.680 --> 01:18:10.279
very hard one. Yes, yeah, yeah, And it's hard to be

1120
01:18:10.319 --> 01:18:12.960
like you got to play it,
but it's like, I think it's interesting

1121
01:18:13.000 --> 01:18:16.039
that it exists, and I'm glad
I tried it. Okay, I don't

1122
01:18:16.079 --> 01:18:19.800
know. There's a lot of indies
that just dropped that I'm really excited about.

1123
01:18:19.840 --> 01:18:25.600
There's been kind of like an indie
mecha going on right now, and

1124
01:18:25.640 --> 01:18:29.239
I'm I was bummed I didn't have
time because I put so much time into

1125
01:18:29.279 --> 01:18:33.479
Animal Well that I didn't have time
to play Crow Country or a little Kitty

1126
01:18:33.520 --> 01:18:38.119
Big City or I heard this about
this game called A Thousand Resist, Like

1127
01:18:38.119 --> 01:18:43.319
there's all these games. I really
want a Kitty Big City, Like this

1128
01:18:43.359 --> 01:18:45.960
is a merry ass game right away. Well, that's really cute, I

1129
01:18:45.960 --> 01:18:50.199
do hear cat. Yeah, and
you do like cute things. You'd like

1130
01:18:50.279 --> 01:18:55.199
knock off cute things off your list, like being a little scamp like Goose

1131
01:18:55.239 --> 01:18:58.600
Game, but with a cat.
It reminds me of Goose Game. Yeah,

1132
01:18:58.600 --> 01:19:03.760
it's like a black Cat too.
It looks really cute. I'm telling

1133
01:19:03.800 --> 01:19:10.079
you, amidst all of the troubles
in Triple A right now, this is

1134
01:19:10.159 --> 01:19:14.880
like the era for smaller indie games. There has been some real bangers coming

1135
01:19:14.920 --> 01:19:17.920
out, and I want to I
want to play more of this type of

1136
01:19:18.039 --> 01:19:23.800
game, crip Master. Have you
heard of this three D dungeon crawler?

1137
01:19:25.720 --> 01:19:29.600
And I think like when you type
or speak it changes things in the game.

1138
01:19:30.840 --> 01:19:36.199
Oh that's cool, I think.
So that's cool. Huh. It's

1139
01:19:36.199 --> 01:19:39.880
like supposed to be like really experience. I'll put it in our discord.

1140
01:19:39.960 --> 01:19:43.119
It's called crip Master. Really.
I want to play all these games,

1141
01:19:43.600 --> 01:19:46.560
and this game came out May ninth, Like it's like primo for us to

1142
01:19:46.560 --> 01:19:53.239
like play right now. But like
I've run out of time for all these

1143
01:19:53.279 --> 01:19:57.199
different games, so I think we
should like try and uh, you know,

1144
01:19:59.079 --> 01:20:00.640
check some of these off the next
time we record, because I was

1145
01:20:00.640 --> 01:20:04.000
really looking forward to playing a bunch
of these. Yeah, if you start,

1146
01:20:05.000 --> 01:20:08.000
yeah, let me know. I'm
curious about that. If that's fine,

1147
01:20:08.079 --> 01:20:12.479
I would check that out as well. Keep popping out of a hedge

1148
01:20:12.520 --> 01:20:15.359
talking to the little kitty. This
kit. This cat looks like Scarlet,

1149
01:20:15.399 --> 01:20:19.119
my cat, but without the white
spots like big green eyes black. I'm

1150
01:20:19.159 --> 01:20:21.840
looking at my list and stuff I've
been playing. It's all wet games.

1151
01:20:21.880 --> 01:20:26.079
You got pools. I tried Endless
Ocean, that switch game. I didn't

1152
01:20:26.079 --> 01:20:29.560
know what the fuck that was all
about. I Animal well is pretty wet,

1153
01:20:29.760 --> 01:20:31.800
and there's some wet areas. And
then I've been playing wind Waker HD

1154
01:20:31.960 --> 01:20:34.319
on my Steam deck, which is
a fucking great way to play that game.

1155
01:20:34.359 --> 01:20:41.600
So I'm just wet central over here. There's another clip, just fucking

1156
01:20:41.640 --> 01:20:50.680
wet central over here. What nobody's
wetter than me? Dan record? Do

1157
01:20:50.720 --> 01:20:55.000
you guys? Want your emails?
All right? As always, you can

1158
01:20:55.039 --> 01:20:59.399
run into Firescape cast at gmail dot
com. Question comments, concerns, anything,

1159
01:20:59.640 --> 01:21:01.920
questions might get read on the show. We've got three tonight. We've

1160
01:21:01.920 --> 01:21:08.279
got one from Justin Mary. Can
you read this first one? Sure?

1161
01:21:09.960 --> 01:21:14.960
Hello? Escape Ease. I'm currently
replaying help how I can do this?

1162
01:21:15.399 --> 01:21:19.520
I'm currently replaying hell Blade Senua's Saga
in preparation for the sequel next week.

1163
01:21:19.840 --> 01:21:25.720
It remains a clever and nuanced exploration
of mental illness. For whatever ridiculous reason,

1164
01:21:25.960 --> 01:21:29.479
when I originally played through this game
in twenty seventeen, I ignored the

1165
01:21:29.520 --> 01:21:33.840
suggestion to wear headphones, and I
truly have no idea why, nor any

1166
01:21:33.840 --> 01:21:40.039
credible defense to mount. That game's
audio design is everything, and the feeling

1167
01:21:40.199 --> 01:21:45.880
of inhabiting Senua's head as she's bombarded
by all sides of constant, contradictory,

1168
01:21:45.960 --> 01:21:50.920
intrusive thoughts is simply impossible to appreciate
without headphones. I'm really glad I finally

1169
01:21:50.920 --> 01:21:55.119
did it right, and it brings
me to my question. Can any of

1170
01:21:55.159 --> 01:22:00.119
you think of any other game which
depends so much on how you play it

1171
01:22:00.159 --> 01:22:04.640
in order for its ideas to be
fully realized? And no plastic guitar for

1172
01:22:04.800 --> 01:22:11.880
guitar hero that's cheating. Smooches.
Justin still the original and undisputed biggest fire

1173
01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:15.920
Escape fan from San Marcos, Texas. Thank you, Justin smooches. So

1174
01:22:16.000 --> 01:22:20.239
let's take out any like music like
sammitdem Ego, musical instrument, d DR

1175
01:22:20.319 --> 01:22:24.600
pad like that. Let's take out
just like controller specific stuff, racing games

1176
01:22:24.920 --> 01:22:27.640
for the wheel. Yeah yeah,
I remember. Yeah, that's all cheating,

1177
01:22:27.920 --> 01:22:30.920
was it. Stephen Taitillo Kataku a
while back wrote an article was like

1178
01:22:30.920 --> 01:22:33.000
ten years ago about like played Red
Dead Redemption on mute and it was like

1179
01:22:33.119 --> 01:22:38.720
what why why well you turned the
music off or something, and he's like,

1180
01:22:38.720 --> 01:22:40.760
oh yeah, I just like,
you know, I forgot what the

1181
01:22:40.800 --> 01:22:43.720
angle was. It was probably like
when Red Dead one came out, but

1182
01:22:43.800 --> 01:22:45.600
everyone has been like, how what
the fuck the sound is so good in

1183
01:22:45.640 --> 01:22:51.600
this game. That's weird, huh. I say, it's not an easy

1184
01:22:53.039 --> 01:22:55.880
like one to answer right away,
Like I feel like I have to put

1185
01:22:55.920 --> 01:22:59.079
some thinkums into it. This is
a thinkum of the year. I like

1186
01:22:59.279 --> 01:23:02.560
a good question. Love playing.
I mean this is kind of opens up

1187
01:23:02.560 --> 01:23:04.520
a whole lot of the can of
worms, like oh, if you play

1188
01:23:04.600 --> 01:23:10.079
multiplayer games better, but like I
love playing Red Alert too, solo all

1189
01:23:10.119 --> 01:23:13.000
the time, skirmishes, but like
the way we set up that Red Alert

1190
01:23:13.000 --> 01:23:18.880
to stream was extremely fun. Dan
for a giant bomb because pandemic twitch streams.

1191
01:23:19.199 --> 01:23:26.319
Yeah, because yeah, I enjoyed
like having the audience see both of

1192
01:23:26.359 --> 01:23:29.840
our stuff, but also like we
could hear they could hear us both strategizing

1193
01:23:29.840 --> 01:23:32.520
out loud. That was a fun, really creative way to play that.

1194
01:23:32.760 --> 01:23:38.079
It's not exactly answering the question,
but that was that was fun. Yeah,

1195
01:23:36.840 --> 01:23:41.920
one baseball like World Series Fundraiser was
also like I had way more fun

1196
01:23:41.920 --> 01:23:44.359
with that than I would have because
we made it into a world series.

1197
01:23:44.760 --> 01:23:47.720
Sure. Yeah, yeah, I'm
trying to do on like the technical end,

1198
01:23:47.800 --> 01:23:50.439
like you know, him bringing up
headphones and things like that, or

1199
01:23:50.439 --> 01:23:53.800
it's like, oh, you gotta
play this NBR, you got to play

1200
01:23:53.800 --> 01:23:57.279
this on this console, you gotta
play this portable or this is if you're

1201
01:23:57.319 --> 01:24:00.319
not playing this on you played that
game on a Steam deck. That's fucked

1202
01:24:00.399 --> 01:24:05.520
up. Like hmmm, I don't
know if these are like correct, but

1203
01:24:05.560 --> 01:24:10.399
i'll give a couple. I remember
the first time I played Undertail, I

1204
01:24:10.520 --> 01:24:14.760
just played it as anyone would,
like, you know, I would fight

1205
01:24:14.800 --> 01:24:16.359
when I wanted to fight, and
I wouldn't when I didn't. And it

1206
01:24:16.439 --> 01:24:24.600
turns out that the game alters dramatically
if you always fight and kill or always

1207
01:24:24.640 --> 01:24:30.840
avoid. And playing it again with
that context made me truly appreciate the nuance

1208
01:24:30.960 --> 01:24:34.880
and the intricacy of Undertail and what
they did. Uh, And so I

1209
01:24:34.920 --> 01:24:39.079
think that's really neat. I don't
know if you have to play it that

1210
01:24:39.159 --> 01:24:42.760
way, but I think it's really
important to have that context, and you

1211
01:24:42.760 --> 01:24:45.399
don't. Actually, I don't think
you can have that context the first time

1212
01:24:45.439 --> 01:24:48.319
you play the game. The intention
is to play it and then find out

1213
01:24:49.159 --> 01:24:55.359
that your choices mattered throughout the entire
experience. And I find that to be

1214
01:24:55.399 --> 01:25:00.640
like really interesting and valuable. Near
Automata's new game, plus playing it twice

1215
01:25:00.720 --> 01:25:01.920
or three times, like you're not
really playing that game. If you only

1216
01:25:02.239 --> 01:25:05.199
quote unquote beat it once. It's
a lot of rogue lights, hades,

1217
01:25:05.239 --> 01:25:08.159
volatro. It's like, wait,
don't stop. The first time you have

1218
01:25:08.239 --> 01:25:12.880
a good run, you know,
right one? I got one until dawn

1219
01:25:13.359 --> 01:25:16.079
because I think if I had played
that solo, I I don't know.

1220
01:25:16.119 --> 01:25:19.119
It's not really my type of game
typically and not really like that type of

1221
01:25:19.199 --> 01:25:23.439
narrative horror game guy, but like
that was remember Bonk and I. I

1222
01:25:23.439 --> 01:25:25.960
think it just started dating when that
came out, and we were like,

1223
01:25:26.239 --> 01:25:28.039
you know, okay, I'll be
the guy characters, you'd be the girl

1224
01:25:28.079 --> 01:25:30.239
characters, and we'll hand the controller
back and forth depending on who's being controlled

1225
01:25:30.279 --> 01:25:32.800
here. And it's like, oh
okay you oh two years died now I

1226
01:25:32.880 --> 01:25:35.840
just lost one of mine. Like
just kind of that like shared story where

1227
01:25:35.840 --> 01:25:40.520
we're both kind of in charge of
different characters. I think made it.

1228
01:25:40.880 --> 01:25:43.560
That would not have been a memorable
game for me if I was playing solo,

1229
01:25:43.640 --> 01:25:45.680
but it turned into something I have
great memories of. I think there's

1230
01:25:45.760 --> 01:25:49.720
probably multiple games like that where like, yes, you can play it alone.

1231
01:25:50.079 --> 01:25:54.800
The joy is playing this other people. The first time I played No

1232
01:25:54.920 --> 01:25:58.840
talk, Wait keep talking and no
one explodes. I played it like I

1233
01:25:58.840 --> 01:26:01.640
think I played it alone. It's
just like I don't know if I like

1234
01:26:01.720 --> 01:26:04.319
understood how you were supposed to do
it. And then I played it with

1235
01:26:04.319 --> 01:26:09.640
people and I was like, oh, that's a good example my my thing.

1236
01:26:09.640 --> 01:26:13.159
Off that with my my brother.
When I was like telling him how

1237
01:26:13.199 --> 01:26:15.239
it played, He's like, it
doesn't really seem like my thing. He

1238
01:26:15.279 --> 01:26:18.239
plays a decent amount of games.
But when I finally I was like,

1239
01:26:18.279 --> 01:26:21.640
hey, Dad, could you before
I get home for Christmas, when we're

1240
01:26:21.640 --> 01:26:25.279
both gonna be could you print off
these pages and put them in that binder.

1241
01:26:25.359 --> 01:26:28.199
Joe's like, oh, you get
the physical pages. It's like you

1242
01:26:28.239 --> 01:26:30.760
don't have to. You can use
the PDF on an iPad, but it's

1243
01:26:30.760 --> 01:26:33.680
way more fun when you're flipping through
pages like special binder, like cold War

1244
01:26:33.720 --> 01:26:38.439
era shit. Yeah, diffusing a
bomb ya. I mean, this one's

1245
01:26:38.439 --> 01:26:41.720
obvious and applies to a bunch of
like four player games. But Mario Party,

1246
01:26:41.760 --> 01:26:44.520
I think it's like this is it's
late. You're with a bunch of

1247
01:26:44.560 --> 01:26:46.560
friends that you're closing up with to
just talk constant shit too. You're having

1248
01:26:46.600 --> 01:26:50.600
drinks, you know, like that's
the context for that burial Cart. Yeah,

1249
01:26:50.680 --> 01:26:54.279
that's the way to play beer.
I've played bureau Cart in a long

1250
01:26:54.319 --> 01:27:00.520
time, I think in general,
but like that's also fair for what Justin

1251
01:27:00.600 --> 01:27:03.560
said, which is it should be
so obvious that you should play a game

1252
01:27:03.640 --> 01:27:08.640
like help Blade with headphones. Right, some of these they are obvious,

1253
01:27:08.680 --> 01:27:13.800
which is the audio of a game
is very integral to most games design.

1254
01:27:14.960 --> 01:27:19.239
Hell Blade very much so because it
is about her mental health. But think

1255
01:27:19.239 --> 01:27:24.439
about how many games would absolutely abysmally
suffer if you were like, nah,

1256
01:27:24.479 --> 01:27:27.680
I just don't want to listen to
the game because so many of them use

1257
01:27:27.720 --> 01:27:32.520
audio cues or their music is phenomenal, Like I wow them in their intended

1258
01:27:32.840 --> 01:27:40.079
environment is important. I loved Tetris
effects that I first played it on four.

1259
01:27:40.880 --> 01:27:43.000
When I went to VR and I
on VR, I was like,

1260
01:27:43.039 --> 01:27:45.359
oh man, this is how this
game should be played if you can.

1261
01:27:45.960 --> 01:27:48.159
That is one of the thirty people
best VR examples, because you can't say

1262
01:27:48.159 --> 01:27:50.479
half Flight Alex because that's only VR. You know, it's not like you

1263
01:27:50.520 --> 01:27:54.159
have the option. Wh'res like tet
Respect you can play in VR or not,

1264
01:27:54.239 --> 01:27:58.359
and it's way better in VR.
Yeah, it's really good. Oh,

1265
01:27:58.720 --> 01:28:01.000
broad streaming Star Wars Squadrons. I
didn't really love it when I played

1266
01:28:01.000 --> 01:28:03.199
it on screen, and then I
again, granted this was when I was

1267
01:28:03.239 --> 01:28:05.760
like testing the PSVR two or whatever, but I was like, okay,

1268
01:28:06.239 --> 01:28:11.600
sitting in this cockpit in VR,
like now it's more exciting. I mean,

1269
01:28:11.640 --> 01:28:14.279
there's that Steel Battalion game on Xbox
that like, I don't even know

1270
01:28:14.279 --> 01:28:15.960
if you can play with the normal
controller, but you want the giant stupid

1271
01:28:16.000 --> 01:28:21.119
mech controller, Like that's another controller
one. You know, horror games or

1272
01:28:21.159 --> 01:28:25.560
scary games in general, if you're
not in the proper environment, you might

1273
01:28:25.600 --> 01:28:29.880
actually be doing a disservice to what
that game is trying to cultivate. I

1274
01:28:29.920 --> 01:28:33.319
have seen people play Amnesia in a
very bright room with a bunch of friends

1275
01:28:33.359 --> 01:28:38.560
and like the window is open and
the birds are singing. That game is

1276
01:28:38.600 --> 01:28:44.520
intended for you to play alone in
a dark space with headphones to make you

1277
01:28:44.560 --> 01:28:47.920
piss your pants, and it will
be successful if you do that recipe.

1278
01:28:48.039 --> 01:28:51.680
So like, if you want to
play a horror game, I suggest you

1279
01:28:51.800 --> 01:28:57.880
do it right and appreciate it for
what it is. It will absolutely scare

1280
01:28:58.439 --> 01:29:00.680
the ever shit out of you.
But if you're not doing it in the

1281
01:29:00.720 --> 01:29:05.920
correct environment. I don't know how
scary it probably is. Obviously jack Box.

1282
01:29:05.960 --> 01:29:09.279
If it's just like the three of
us hanging out, we're not going

1283
01:29:09.319 --> 01:29:14.560
to play jack Box. But if
you're home for me alone playing jack Box,

1284
01:29:14.640 --> 01:29:19.399
Yeah, I keep voting for myself. Yeah, that was really funny.

1285
01:29:19.439 --> 01:29:26.520
Yeah, t shirt from Saddest Story
by t k O And it's just

1286
01:29:26.640 --> 01:29:33.800
me. If any other come come
up over the next another thing. I'm

1287
01:29:33.800 --> 01:29:39.920
sure there's like even better examples of
that, but on like you know,

1288
01:29:40.279 --> 01:29:44.079
on the fly, I would say, like, yes, make sure you're

1289
01:29:44.079 --> 01:29:46.800
playing the game the way it's intended. If someone tells you, all games

1290
01:29:46.800 --> 01:29:54.960
I think should be played with good
audio and the proper ambient lightings that you

1291
01:29:55.000 --> 01:30:00.720
can actually get immersed in the experience. So yeah, listen to new episode

1292
01:30:00.720 --> 01:30:02.560
of my favorite podcast, Deadlock.
And they just flew to Japan and they

1293
01:30:02.600 --> 01:30:05.119
had the movies on the screen in
front of them on their flight. Yeah,

1294
01:30:05.159 --> 01:30:09.479
and one of the guys watched the
new Wonka movie, the Timothy Schallamey

1295
01:30:09.520 --> 01:30:13.800
one with closed captions on mute and
no headphones. It's like the other guys,

1296
01:30:14.000 --> 01:30:19.000
this is the weirdest thing. Watching
the whole movie in closed captions,

1297
01:30:19.520 --> 01:30:24.159
but he had he didn't he had
with him, I think, but like

1298
01:30:24.199 --> 01:30:31.800
he just didn't listen to the sex
is just like I love chocolate, I

1299
01:30:32.520 --> 01:30:39.119
children. That guy has bodies in
his basement. Thank you, justin the

1300
01:30:39.159 --> 01:30:44.720
original and unisputed biggest Firescape fan from
San Marcos, Texas. Dan, do

1301
01:30:44.720 --> 01:30:47.279
you want to read this one from
Raz? Yes, Dear fire Crew,

1302
01:30:47.359 --> 01:30:50.680
longtime listener, first time caller.
I'm wondering why nobody ever brings up the

1303
01:30:50.720 --> 01:30:56.119
Sherlock TV Show with Benedict Cumberbatch when
discussing the best TV shows of all time?

1304
01:30:56.439 --> 01:30:59.319
Is it because it's not American?
Do you have a TV show that

1305
01:30:59.399 --> 01:31:01.840
nobody brings up when discussing the best
TV shows of all time? Love the

1306
01:31:01.840 --> 01:31:05.319
show, Keep up the good work. That's Raz from Romania twenty four.

1307
01:31:06.920 --> 01:31:11.800
I think it is because it's not
America. I think I think he's right.

1308
01:31:12.399 --> 01:31:15.840
I don't know. I never see
bring up We never bring up internationals.

1309
01:31:15.840 --> 01:31:18.479
Like the most way we do is
like Monk like I will, I

1310
01:31:18.479 --> 01:31:24.640
will bring up anime Python like other
than that, that's a movie, a

1311
01:31:25.359 --> 01:31:29.600
show flying circus Monty Python was Yeah, they had a whole time. Were

1312
01:31:29.760 --> 01:31:32.359
about the movies. No, those
are good too. If you thought you

1313
01:31:32.439 --> 01:31:38.960
aged yourself with the previous movie discussion, you have really done it this time

1314
01:31:39.079 --> 01:31:44.479
bringing up a Monty Python's TV show
Flying Circuses on Comedy Second in the nineties.

1315
01:31:44.479 --> 01:31:49.680
It's fine. Well, I was
ten and the show was from like

1316
01:31:49.720 --> 01:31:53.960
the seventies, but they were showing
it in the nineties at four in the

1317
01:31:54.000 --> 01:31:59.800
morning. Sometimes you're like sixty five
years old. Don't tell anyone. I

1318
01:32:00.000 --> 01:32:01.359
wouldn't say that this is like the
best show of all time, but I

1319
01:32:01.399 --> 01:32:03.880
fucking look like it's one of my
top five's. At the Flight of the

1320
01:32:03.880 --> 01:32:09.000
Concords, which is New Zealand,
season two was not nearly as good as

1321
01:32:09.039 --> 01:32:12.720
season one. They kind of like
had to a bunch of songs as well.

1322
01:32:13.159 --> 01:32:15.079
They've got They've got that bit with
Murray when they're talking about they're like,

1323
01:32:15.239 --> 01:32:18.800
yeah, it's like a he's like
a Stevie Nixon, Lindsay Buckingham.

1324
01:32:18.800 --> 01:32:21.439
They wrote they wrote a whole album
about their breakup and then they performed it

1325
01:32:21.479 --> 01:32:24.680
on stage. He's like yeah,
rumors. He's like no, no,

1326
01:32:24.840 --> 01:32:30.479
this was all true. When was
like, oh, yeah, these guys

1327
01:32:30.520 --> 01:32:34.239
are like from Australia, They're like, no, it's New Zealand probably what

1328
01:32:36.880 --> 01:32:42.720
it was awesome, but no,
yeah, in terms of shows that like

1329
01:32:42.760 --> 01:32:47.720
no one brings up in like best
of chats, like The Terror is one

1330
01:32:47.760 --> 01:32:53.079
of the best shows ever made.
I think what what year did even come

1331
01:32:53.119 --> 01:33:00.800
out at this point? It was
am C, AMC was AMC. They

1332
01:33:00.800 --> 01:33:04.159
did two seasons. The first season
was the two British ship ships, the

1333
01:33:04.319 --> 01:33:10.520
HMS Terror in the HMS Erabis might
be butchering that. The other one the

1334
01:33:10.520 --> 01:33:15.880
British two British Royal Navy crews trying
to find the Northwest Passage passage through the

1335
01:33:16.000 --> 01:33:19.680
Arctic Ocean. Basically that would like
cut their trip around the world in half

1336
01:33:19.720 --> 01:33:25.920
before the whole before they could go
farther south in the Atlantic. Jared Harris

1337
01:33:25.960 --> 01:33:30.600
is one of the captains Unreal who
plays Lord Tully in Game of Thrones.

1338
01:33:30.640 --> 01:33:36.279
He's in it Unreal show. It's
it's kind of horror. Uh, there's

1339
01:33:36.319 --> 01:33:40.760
aspects of a monster that's stalking them
when they get stuck in the ice,

1340
01:33:40.800 --> 01:33:45.439
but it's also like this very extremely
well written character study of a bun like

1341
01:33:45.479 --> 01:33:47.960
a bunch of these dudes, and
like the my mark of a good show

1342
01:33:48.079 --> 01:33:55.159
is like or at least I really
enjoy shows similar to Search Party, where

1343
01:33:55.199 --> 01:33:58.600
like it ends up in a completely
fucking different place. I mean, Search

1344
01:33:58.600 --> 01:34:00.520
Party is the absolute extreme of that. But the Church Party is a great

1345
01:34:00.520 --> 01:34:03.319
answer for this too. No one's
ever talked about Church Party. It's like

1346
01:34:03.359 --> 01:34:09.840
five great seasons, yeah, five
of different genres. Yeazz. But but

1347
01:34:10.319 --> 01:34:14.039
the Terror, like each character I
could not have imagined where they ended up

1348
01:34:14.079 --> 01:34:16.720
if they survived toward the end,
and then it just gets so fucking bleak.

1349
01:34:16.800 --> 01:34:20.479
But The Terror is incredible, just
really gorgeous show, despite the fact

1350
01:34:20.520 --> 01:34:26.479
that it's mostly snow and the interior
halls of ships. Really good characters.

1351
01:34:26.960 --> 01:34:30.079
I have not seen the second season
that's about Japanese and tournament camps. I

1352
01:34:30.079 --> 01:34:34.840
need to watch it. Yeah,
the Americans, I don't think it's talked

1353
01:34:34.840 --> 01:34:41.520
about enough. I think that shows
incredible that honestly, I think deserves in

1354
01:34:41.560 --> 01:34:46.920
the count to be in the conversation
with like the Wire no men, the

1355
01:34:47.039 --> 01:34:54.079
Sopranos. The Americans is just unreal. Those are probably mine. I comedy

1356
01:34:54.079 --> 01:34:56.640
wise, I always preferred The British
Office, you know, I thought it

1357
01:34:56.680 --> 01:34:59.520
was just much more contained. It's
like twelve episodes in the Christmas Special.

1358
01:34:59.600 --> 01:35:01.600
I thought they were just like you
know, I've seen most of the American

1359
01:35:01.640 --> 01:35:05.600
Office and it definitely had its moments
for sure, but overall, I definitely

1360
01:35:05.640 --> 01:35:10.039
prefer the British one and then Nirvana
the band. The show I don't think

1361
01:35:10.039 --> 01:35:13.840
anyone ever talked about because it was
on fucking Vice Land or something I ever

1362
01:35:13.960 --> 01:35:17.199
heard of that. Have you seen
the we Shop music thing that you know,

1363
01:35:17.399 --> 01:35:21.680
Ninja Guide into You know that that
meme that's from that show and it's

1364
01:35:21.720 --> 01:35:25.640
the guy that made that, he
made the BlackBerry movie that came out recently.

1365
01:35:26.760 --> 01:35:29.319
Yes, yes, but I mean
this guy was on Nirvana. The

1366
01:35:29.319 --> 01:35:34.760
band of the show Before the Sun
is Nirvana with two Ends's legally distinct.

1367
01:35:35.079 --> 01:35:40.479
It's it's very weird and very very
funny and Merbanka. I really like that.

1368
01:35:42.920 --> 01:35:48.119
I have ones that I think are
very important that anyone who watches anime

1369
01:35:48.279 --> 01:35:51.600
would be like, well, obviously, but I think if you don't watch

1370
01:35:53.359 --> 01:35:59.039
animated shows, you probably don't know
of these, and you absolutely are missing

1371
01:35:59.079 --> 01:36:03.079
out on some of the greatest pieces
of television of all time. And I

1372
01:36:03.079 --> 01:36:06.680
am I am begging you. You
might be like, I don't want to

1373
01:36:06.680 --> 01:36:12.720
get into anime, and I'm like, just try to watch fully coolly,

1374
01:36:13.000 --> 01:36:16.920
Like give it a whirl. It's
phenomenal. It's really well made. The

1375
01:36:16.960 --> 01:36:25.079
animation is incredible, really good story. Yeah. F O O L Y

1376
01:36:25.520 --> 01:36:30.680
c O O L Y one word? Why cool? Why trying to kind

1377
01:36:30.720 --> 01:36:32.319
of space? I think fully coolly. I have never even like I feel

1378
01:36:32.359 --> 01:36:35.479
like even stuff like you know,
I don't know what like Narudo or what's

1379
01:36:35.520 --> 01:36:39.800
the Pirate one, but like I
could picture them like I've seen the guy

1380
01:36:39.840 --> 01:36:42.560
with the straw hat. I've seen
the guy with the mirkey tail, like

1381
01:36:43.039 --> 01:36:48.640
I've seen the Pirate Okay, yeah, I've seen that because they had like

1382
01:36:48.680 --> 01:36:51.880
video games and stuff. I've never
seen this fully COOLi just has like an

1383
01:36:53.000 --> 01:36:58.199
abbreviation. Yes, a lot of
people call it f L C L.

1384
01:36:58.560 --> 01:37:06.439
Yes, it's called coly. Uh, there's a lot of what is Throat

1385
01:37:06.560 --> 01:37:10.640
doing? You're becoming scandi. You're
talking about my favorite anime, fool.

1386
01:37:11.239 --> 01:37:15.119
You've never been speaking it in Swedish
when you say it. Look, man,

1387
01:37:15.199 --> 01:37:20.960
just check out stupid. I don't
know why that's making me last so

1388
01:37:21.119 --> 01:37:25.159
stupid. I can't I can't even
do it. It's like I'm trying to

1389
01:37:25.159 --> 01:37:28.600
impersonate an act, a famous actor. So when a lot of people think

1390
01:37:28.720 --> 01:37:31.520
of anime, they think of something
you hear your beard when you say it

1391
01:37:32.039 --> 01:37:40.800
can't do it. Sorry, Mary
go on, I'm being like, sorry,

1392
01:37:40.960 --> 01:37:44.359
Mike's being a maniac. I'm sorry, Mike just can't handle us talking

1393
01:37:44.359 --> 01:37:51.399
about our anime. Fool stupid.
People talk about animes, they usually are

1394
01:37:51.439 --> 01:37:57.199
thinking of something like Narudo that has
like four hundred seasons and ten thousand episodes

1395
01:37:57.199 --> 01:38:05.640
and it feels overwhelming. Fool Coolly
or flcl is one season, oh how

1396
01:38:05.640 --> 01:38:11.359
many? How many episodes? Sixty
seven? I don't know, but it's

1397
01:38:11.439 --> 01:38:14.720
built to end okay. So it's
got like just an arc. It's not

1398
01:38:14.760 --> 01:38:15.880
like, oh, well, this
is my life now. It's got an

1399
01:38:16.000 --> 01:38:19.279
arc and it concludes okay, And
that's what makes it special. I have

1400
01:38:19.319 --> 01:38:24.079
a couple if anyone's like, ooh, I like things that are one season.

1401
01:38:25.239 --> 01:38:30.399
Kill l Kill has one solid ass, incredible season. Gurn Logan has

1402
01:38:30.520 --> 01:38:35.199
two. That's it, solid ass
seasons. It's like, there's a character

1403
01:38:35.239 --> 01:38:40.800
in gern Logan named Simoon. Do
you know him? My dash because I

1404
01:38:40.800 --> 01:38:43.079
think it's like one of the best
animes of all time. And I also

1405
01:38:43.079 --> 01:38:46.359
feel I feel very strongly about a
full Metal Alchemist brotherhood, So there's a

1406
01:38:46.399 --> 01:38:49.479
lot. I know that sounds like
crazy because you can't have that many favorites.

1407
01:38:49.600 --> 01:38:53.960
I'm just saying they're all really iconic, and if you don't watch anime,

1408
01:38:54.039 --> 01:38:57.039
you might be like, I'm not
watching that shit. They're really really

1409
01:38:57.039 --> 01:38:59.800
good. You're doing yourself at a
service. This is six episodes long.

1410
01:39:00.079 --> 01:39:04.479
Well, the is a six episodes
watch watch fully Coolly and see what you

1411
01:39:04.520 --> 01:39:09.560
think. I'm curious what Bonk thinks
as well. I feel like I've had

1412
01:39:09.560 --> 01:39:12.399
a couple of misses with you guys
on shows, but I really like fully

1413
01:39:12.439 --> 01:39:15.199
Cooly. It looks like a lady
having sex with a guitar on the cover.

1414
01:39:18.239 --> 01:39:27.239
Ladies and gentlemen, we got him
it is. It is has one

1415
01:39:27.279 --> 01:39:30.119
of those like, uh, I'm
trying how to describe it if, Mike,

1416
01:39:30.960 --> 01:39:35.880
have you ever watched Kill Kill?
No? Okay, let me try

1417
01:39:35.880 --> 01:39:42.399
and describe this one for you.
It is a girl whose school girl uniform

1418
01:39:42.880 --> 01:39:49.399
is alive and gets really hyper short
and revealing to show off her powers.

1419
01:39:49.760 --> 01:39:57.439
Why would that interest me? And
she's a cartoon perfect because because I watch

1420
01:39:57.600 --> 01:40:00.920
a lot of hen Tie, I
get it her her like boobies and butt

1421
01:40:01.079 --> 01:40:04.600
are the entire focal point of the
show, and then she kills things with

1422
01:40:04.640 --> 01:40:12.880
a giant like sword. It's super
fun. Visually, it's amazing. Yeah,

1423
01:40:14.920 --> 01:40:16.800
it doesn't do it for you yet, not really. Here's a cartoon.

1424
01:40:17.279 --> 01:40:23.279
And then on her outfit, the
eyeballs of the outfit are where her

1425
01:40:23.319 --> 01:40:28.479
boobs are, and he like looks
around and stuff, geez okay, yeah,

1426
01:40:28.560 --> 01:40:31.560
no, she's not really wearing much. That's not bedazzled. I think

1427
01:40:31.600 --> 01:40:36.079
it's just it's just a bit like
I'm looking for more tasteful stuff. You

1428
01:40:36.199 --> 01:40:45.119
are not likedled another shower and bedazzled
another show. It's not the best show

1429
01:40:45.159 --> 01:40:50.800
for me, but it's really fucking
Funny's peep Show and Jeremy, uh what

1430
01:40:50.960 --> 01:40:55.439
again. One of my favorite scenes
ever is when Jeremy is like freaked out

1431
01:40:55.479 --> 01:40:59.680
by how well he's doing during an
interview and you hear his inner monologue.

1432
01:40:59.680 --> 01:41:00.880
He's like, oh my god,
you're doing well. You're not ready for

1433
01:41:00.880 --> 01:41:03.840
this. You got a panic make
a crazy face, and then you hear

1434
01:41:03.880 --> 01:41:10.560
that, and then you see him
go like at the guy and then he

1435
01:41:10.560 --> 01:41:15.279
doesn't get the job. If you
like that, have either of you seen

1436
01:41:15.359 --> 01:41:21.520
Black Books? It's also dark British
comedy Black Boots, Black Boots. Black

1437
01:41:21.560 --> 01:41:30.720
Books is like a black Books.
It's an alcoholic running a bookstore, okay,

1438
01:41:31.000 --> 01:41:34.680
and it sounds like the most British
show. And it's a dark comedy

1439
01:41:34.720 --> 01:41:38.560
like it's kind it's kind of fucked
up, but it's very funny, and

1440
01:41:38.680 --> 01:41:43.039
I just think it's it's really brilliantly
written. And I was surprised that I

1441
01:41:43.079 --> 01:41:45.760
had found it and watched it,
but I watched all of it. I

1442
01:41:45.760 --> 01:41:49.239
thought it was great. It reminds
me of it crowd, you know where.

1443
01:41:49.239 --> 01:41:54.079
It's just like a bunch of rap
scallions hanging out in the middle of

1444
01:41:54.079 --> 01:41:58.119
nowhere. So yeah, Black Books
is pretty cute. All right. Well,

1445
01:41:58.119 --> 01:42:00.159
thank you raz from Romania. We've
got listen in Romania. That's pretty

1446
01:42:00.199 --> 01:42:04.399
cool, all right. Last one, Hey, fire Escape, Why is

1447
01:42:04.399 --> 01:42:08.520
this the only podcast where all the
ads are in Spanish? I don't mind

1448
01:42:08.560 --> 01:42:11.439
having the ads to support, but
I don't understand why yours is the only

1449
01:42:11.520 --> 01:42:17.600
podcast I get ads in Spanish?
And then what was this? No,

1450
01:42:17.640 --> 01:42:20.720
it's and then there's just no other
transition. The second paragraph is what's the

1451
01:42:20.720 --> 01:42:24.760
worst month of the year. I
live in the south and have moderate allergies,

1452
01:42:25.000 --> 01:42:27.439
so April is rough for me.
I hate when my normal two to

1453
01:42:27.479 --> 01:42:30.119
three sneezes turns into ten plus and
visibly seeing pollen fly in the wind.

1454
01:42:30.439 --> 01:42:33.720
I also feel like as climate change
has gotten worse, the change from hives

1455
01:42:33.720 --> 01:42:36.840
in the fifties, sixties to eighties
plus has gotten shorter. I swear the

1456
01:42:36.880 --> 01:42:43.000
temp change over two to three days
a year. Matthew from Barcelona, I'd

1457
01:42:43.000 --> 01:42:45.840
says. To be clarify, Matthew, He's not actually from Barcelona. I

1458
01:42:45.840 --> 01:42:50.760
just thought that'd be funny if I
put that there. I don't know why

1459
01:42:50.840 --> 01:42:55.159
you're getting Spanish ads. I'd prefer
that to the English ads I hear.

1460
01:42:55.239 --> 01:42:57.640
So if you figure out why you're
getting them, let me know. I

1461
01:42:57.720 --> 01:43:01.520
just this this This answer will depend
largely, I think on where we live.

1462
01:43:01.720 --> 01:43:05.600
Yes, like here Minnesota, it's
like February or March, because that's

1463
01:43:05.640 --> 01:43:10.000
like the deep winter, and it's
like near the end where it's like,

1464
01:43:10.039 --> 01:43:13.680
Okay, it's already been cold for
like four or five months. We just

1465
01:43:13.760 --> 01:43:15.079
want April and May to bring some
better weather. And then it's like,

1466
01:43:15.159 --> 01:43:17.439
oh my god, it's fucking snowing. It's snowing in April, what the

1467
01:43:17.439 --> 01:43:20.399
fuck? So like kind of that
like end of winter. Like I think

1468
01:43:20.520 --> 01:43:26.479
March is probably the worst for Minnesota. Yeah, I was gonna say March

1469
01:43:26.720 --> 01:43:31.000
or February. I am like at
my wits end. Portland has a very

1470
01:43:31.159 --> 01:43:40.640
long rainy season that starts sometimes in
November, November, December, January,

1471
01:43:40.920 --> 01:43:45.520
February by like March, I'm ripping
my hair out. I'm like, stop

1472
01:43:45.760 --> 01:43:48.760
fucking raining now. Usually in February
we have something called the February fake out,

1473
01:43:49.000 --> 01:43:55.960
which is when we have two weeks
of summer. It's nuts. It's

1474
01:43:56.560 --> 01:44:00.920
like upper seventies, sunny and gorgeous, and everyone's like, we did it,

1475
01:44:00.960 --> 01:44:06.760
everyone, and they're fools because winter
isn't over, you, stupid sons

1476
01:44:06.760 --> 01:44:12.800
of bitches. It's going to rain
and go back to forty for another month,

1477
01:44:12.960 --> 01:44:16.760
sometimes two months, and usually like
even in April it's raining, and

1478
01:44:16.800 --> 01:44:21.159
then somewhere around May it actually gets
nice. And right now we're like we're

1479
01:44:21.159 --> 01:44:27.199
in it and it's stunning. Yeah, God damn. Like that February March

1480
01:44:27.239 --> 01:44:30.760
era, I just want to die. And especially like as it gets near

1481
01:44:30.800 --> 01:44:32.720
the end, every week it goes
where it's still kind of shitty. It's

1482
01:44:32.720 --> 01:44:35.640
like that is a week eaten up
of a good spring or a good summer,

1483
01:44:35.680 --> 01:44:40.119
Like, goddamn it, this is
like crucial time. Yeah, it's

1484
01:44:40.159 --> 01:44:44.800
also I don't love March. It's
also New York. Growing up at Syracuse,

1485
01:44:44.880 --> 01:44:47.520
especially, the joke is that there's
only three seasons. It's winter,

1486
01:44:47.640 --> 01:44:51.840
summer, and construction. There's always
a construction starting when it's semif not winter.

1487
01:44:51.920 --> 01:44:56.600
But then again it's just slush and
cold. But March is also like

1488
01:44:57.640 --> 01:45:00.479
compare it to January, for instance, it's a long month and you don't

1489
01:45:00.520 --> 01:45:05.760
get any days off in March.
I always didn't mind it because half my

1490
01:45:05.840 --> 01:45:10.119
family has birthdays in March, and
there's Saint Patti's Day, So I always

1491
01:45:10.119 --> 01:45:14.159
had fun growing up in March.
But now that you know, like I'm

1492
01:45:14.159 --> 01:45:20.000
not around my family as much,
March is long, for sure, I

1493
01:45:20.039 --> 01:45:26.800
don't. I guess I have a
follow up question, what is the most

1494
01:45:26.880 --> 01:45:31.880
underrated month? October is nice?
I think October is I wouldn't even call

1495
01:45:31.920 --> 01:45:38.600
it underrated. I guess gets rated
exactly where October. Oh my god,

1496
01:45:38.680 --> 01:45:42.000
let's fuse every month. Oh yeah
yeah, wait, wait quick, My

1497
01:45:42.239 --> 01:45:45.279
My answer is growing up, I
did not always love August because that was

1498
01:45:45.319 --> 01:45:47.560
the end of summer. Vacation.
There's not really any holiday going on in

1499
01:45:47.600 --> 01:45:53.119
August, but like these days,
I fucking love August because everybody in New

1500
01:45:53.199 --> 01:45:57.399
York leaves so we can get reservations
fucking anywhere. We have the city like

1501
01:45:57.479 --> 01:46:00.079
quote unquote to ourselves. And it's
not I mean, you can get those

1502
01:46:00.079 --> 01:46:03.800
dog days of summer when it's really
hot, but like it's the city is

1503
01:46:04.079 --> 01:46:08.399
wherever you live. If you're in
a city, they're probably or even in

1504
01:46:08.479 --> 01:46:13.359
like suburbs, people are probably going
elsewhere. If you're going elsewhere, cool,

1505
01:46:13.359 --> 01:46:15.159
it's a time to go on vacation. If you're not, then you

1506
01:46:15.239 --> 01:46:17.920
get way more you know, pikachuoza
restaurants. I love August these days.

1507
01:46:18.319 --> 01:46:26.319
All right, January, if you
sit three January three out of ten.

1508
01:46:26.600 --> 01:46:29.800
Yeah, yeah, it's low for
me. I would also put it,

1509
01:46:30.079 --> 01:46:34.520
uh yeah, maybe maybe a three
because it's like right after Christmas, Like

1510
01:46:34.560 --> 01:46:39.199
what is January done for me?
Yeah? New Year said, the very

1511
01:46:39.359 --> 01:46:43.479
New Year's is basically a December thing, you know, January. He doesn't

1512
01:46:43.520 --> 01:46:48.039
get to claim New Years. No, maybe it's a two January as winter

1513
01:46:48.079 --> 01:46:51.800
ahead. Yet it's the two okay
then the reason I think it could be

1514
01:46:51.840 --> 01:46:57.199
a three not a two is because
you usually don't work New Year's Day,

1515
01:46:57.399 --> 01:47:00.800
so you're getting a holiday in there. Sure there's also no holidays like suckers.

1516
01:47:01.600 --> 01:47:05.119
February when is is? M okay, January January President Day, that's

1517
01:47:05.199 --> 01:47:09.960
one of those is up there?
Yeah, I think it's mlkay. Now,

1518
01:47:10.000 --> 01:47:12.239
I got to look this up because
I feel I feel like this is

1519
01:47:12.279 --> 01:47:16.319
something. MLKA Day is in January, January fifteenth, right in the middle,

1520
01:47:16.319 --> 01:47:21.159
So you do get three three,
three. I'm going five because January

1521
01:47:21.199 --> 01:47:25.600
around here nowadays. I don't know
if this was not always a case growing

1522
01:47:25.680 --> 01:47:28.479
up at Syracuse, but in New
York that's the first month these days where

1523
01:47:28.479 --> 01:47:31.880
we get legit snow as opposed to
like this pussy shit, I want like

1524
01:47:32.119 --> 01:47:36.840
real snow. And oftentimes these recent
years it's January and we finally get like,

1525
01:47:38.039 --> 01:47:42.319
yeah, dump on it or not
dump on me. Make me wet,

1526
01:47:42.560 --> 01:47:45.079
all right? Uh? Five?
Three? Don't write that down,

1527
01:47:45.640 --> 01:47:50.720
No, alright, make me wet. Go to February. I don't like

1528
01:47:50.720 --> 01:47:56.119
February either. What's going on in
February. I'll give it a four because

1529
01:47:56.119 --> 01:47:58.920
we're getting closed here to the end
of winter. And also it's a short

1530
01:47:59.000 --> 01:48:01.039
one, so it's like you get
pasted it a little quicker than like the

1531
01:48:01.039 --> 01:48:04.800
thirty one of January. February has
the February fake out, which I love.

1532
01:48:05.279 --> 01:48:08.800
So I'm going to give it a
four because it's not as shit as

1533
01:48:08.880 --> 01:48:16.079
January, but February at least has
the excuse to go on like a big

1534
01:48:16.159 --> 01:48:20.800
date night. We do that a
lot. Though I hate Valentine's Day.

1535
01:48:20.920 --> 01:48:25.039
It's basically, don't like go out
on either end of the stupid mentality.

1536
01:48:25.079 --> 01:48:27.760
And you know what a lot of
wrestlers are like, we're up in our

1537
01:48:27.800 --> 01:48:31.560
prices and serving you like some shit
dessert because we know you're trying to fuck

1538
01:48:31.600 --> 01:48:35.960
tonight. They take advantage of people
I don't like Valentine's Day, like,

1539
01:48:36.279 --> 01:48:42.079
take your date out on a regular
ass Tuesday. You don't need the fourteenth

1540
01:48:42.119 --> 01:48:45.199
of February as an excuse to do
it, you piece of shit. Go

1541
01:48:45.279 --> 01:48:48.520
make a reservation right now. They
deserve it. You need to do it

1542
01:48:48.600 --> 01:48:53.760
right now before you lose them.
Listen to me, make a reservation.

1543
01:48:54.119 --> 01:48:57.439
Just do it, Just do it. We have date night every single week

1544
01:48:57.439 --> 01:49:00.199
of our lives. We don't have
kids. We both have you know know,

1545
01:49:00.600 --> 01:49:02.680
we've both got busy jobs every single
Thursday of every week we go out

1546
01:49:02.680 --> 01:49:06.800
on a date. I still like
have like just an excuse every once in

1547
01:49:06.840 --> 01:49:11.399
a while to bring my wife flowers
in like out of nowhere, and I

1548
01:49:11.439 --> 01:49:14.079
do. I still do that all
the time. It's kind of like Mother's

1549
01:49:14.159 --> 01:49:15.640
Day. Have you seen like how
they like they like jack up the prices

1550
01:49:15.640 --> 01:49:18.239
of like flowers Mother's Day and they're
like, you need to do this,

1551
01:49:18.319 --> 01:49:23.159
you piece of shit. Your mother's
like did so much for you. And

1552
01:49:23.199 --> 01:49:26.279
it's like, just tell your mom
you love her all the time. No,

1553
01:49:26.399 --> 01:49:30.199
I got I get my mom gifts
for Mother's Day, all right?

1554
01:49:30.640 --> 01:49:34.279
March. Wait, I didn't fuse
February four. Well, then hurry the

1555
01:49:34.319 --> 01:49:38.640
fuck up. I just said four
March. March is two. I'm going

1556
01:49:38.680 --> 01:49:44.279
three. No three shamrock shakes.
Oh good one. Yeah, I forgot

1557
01:49:44.359 --> 01:49:49.359
about patties. Five patties is awesome. Also, my birthday is in March,

1558
01:49:49.520 --> 01:49:54.720
so you're you're against a day that
celebrates uh people go on dates,

1559
01:49:54.720 --> 01:49:59.840
but you're for one of the biggest
corporations in the world releasing a commodity that

1560
01:50:00.199 --> 01:50:03.199
is like price to get you into
the restaurants they have beer. Mike,

1561
01:50:04.279 --> 01:50:12.239
Okay, hypocrite who is McDonald's.
McDonald's great. Yeah, but you're against

1562
01:50:12.319 --> 01:50:15.119
them commodifying this one date night.
But I'm not against anyone commodifying anything.

1563
01:50:15.239 --> 01:50:19.479
No, I'm talking to Marry,
Okay, just putting out her hypoc hop.

1564
01:50:20.319 --> 01:50:26.079
There's nothing hypocritical about it. I
think you're an idiot. Like Valentine's

1565
01:50:26.159 --> 01:50:32.840
Day is about commercialization of love,
which is ridiculous, commercialization, commercialization of

1566
01:50:33.319 --> 01:50:39.920
my people. I'm the most commercialized. Can profit off of it. Go

1567
01:50:40.119 --> 01:50:44.039
for it, honey, I'll give
you extra money for green beer, giving

1568
01:50:44.039 --> 01:50:48.239
money to Ireland. There's no reason
I don't care about like most Irish person

1569
01:50:48.319 --> 01:50:51.800
in the games industry. I heard
this mad because I told you to be

1570
01:50:51.920 --> 01:50:57.880
nice to your mom more. I'm
Marry, be honest. You are anti

1571
01:50:57.960 --> 01:51:04.399
mother dan is right. I love
my mom as Amar yours you like.

1572
01:51:04.479 --> 01:51:10.760
But Mother dan is right, that's
not right. Mary. You and I

1573
01:51:10.800 --> 01:51:13.479
both know. I'm the most Irish
person in the games industry. I'm the

1574
01:51:13.479 --> 01:51:17.319
best boxer in the games industry.
I have a lot of things going for

1575
01:51:17.359 --> 01:51:21.439
me. I just don't take kindly
to Mickey D's stepping on my toes in

1576
01:51:24.239 --> 01:51:30.159
Irish. No, I don't know
what McDonald I never thought that McDonald was

1577
01:51:30.199 --> 01:51:33.520
Scottish historically the name I think,
I know that Donald's is pleasantly neutral,

1578
01:51:33.600 --> 01:51:36.279
to be like, we're a little
bit of everybody, and they just like,

1579
01:51:36.319 --> 01:51:44.439
won't they McDonald's. Wait, Mickey
from Rocky was Irish, and I

1580
01:51:44.479 --> 01:51:46.479
realized that that's his first name,
and also I don't know if he's Irish,

1581
01:51:46.640 --> 01:51:51.439
so I don't know where my logic
is Donald Mickey mick, Like was

1582
01:51:51.479 --> 01:51:59.319
his last name? Donald McDonald mick? There? You really do not use

1583
01:51:59.319 --> 01:52:05.520
mickey if you're not Irish. Can
you imagine her name was Nick Donald's.

1584
01:52:06.000 --> 01:52:12.680
I know, I feel bad gold
all right? So that was March.

1585
01:52:12.680 --> 01:52:15.920
I'm giving March a five. We're
on to April. I like April's a

1586
01:52:16.039 --> 01:52:24.000
solid seven. It's like spring.
That's when we get the stutter step of

1587
01:52:24.239 --> 01:52:27.960
spring. Kind of these days early
April April still sucks here. I'm gonna

1588
01:52:28.000 --> 01:52:30.079
go back down four. I actually
like six. I'm gonna go six.

1589
01:52:30.119 --> 01:52:33.039
It does still snow here. I
like rainy spring. That's when my wife's

1590
01:52:33.039 --> 01:52:35.560
birthday is, and I love her
and I give her flowers and I go

1591
01:52:35.560 --> 01:52:43.119
on dates even when it's not Valentine's
Day. You fuck from fucking gonna give

1592
01:52:43.159 --> 01:52:45.640
you one of these next stories.
I'm gonna text her and be like,

1593
01:52:45.760 --> 01:52:48.640
how often does he take you out? I want to know. No,

1594
01:52:48.720 --> 01:52:53.760
don't, those are unrelated. You
just need to take her out just because

1595
01:52:53.800 --> 01:52:57.199
she deserves it, because she's a
queen. Yeah, I know, I

1596
01:52:57.239 --> 01:53:01.239
treat her like one. April.
What else is going on? Why do

1597
01:53:01.239 --> 01:53:04.039
I feel like there's something else going
on? April? Uh? Is that

1598
01:53:04.079 --> 01:53:08.600
Fleet Week in New York? Because
it's October in San Francisco, WrestleMania.

1599
01:53:08.600 --> 01:53:13.399
You're probably going to WrestleMania. That
happens a lot. I confuse Fleet Week

1600
01:53:13.439 --> 01:53:16.920
in WrestleMania. April I'll go.
I'll go like seven. I like the

1601
01:53:16.960 --> 01:53:19.880
spring rain and it's a it's a
you know, like you're coming out of

1602
01:53:19.920 --> 01:53:28.359
winter ish sort of. It's so
rainy. May Love map eight May guy

1603
01:53:28.680 --> 01:53:33.119
a big May Love May. I'm
going like eight because it's not I don't

1604
01:53:33.199 --> 01:53:36.279
like I don't love heat. I
like the in between hot. It's too

1605
01:53:36.359 --> 01:53:40.880
hot in June and July. I
think May is really ideal for me.

1606
01:53:41.000 --> 01:53:45.560
I want to say, May I
sleep so well in May and like September

1607
01:53:45.600 --> 01:53:51.840
when you can have the windows open. Yeah, I'll say I'll say,

1608
01:53:51.880 --> 01:53:55.560
like I'm saying eight just because I've
got a few months coming up that I

1609
01:53:55.680 --> 01:54:00.680
don't I'm saving my nines for these
months coming up. Yeah, I don't

1610
01:54:00.680 --> 01:54:03.239
want to. I don't want to
rate like Forbidden West and a nine right

1611
01:54:03.279 --> 01:54:06.560
before Tears of the Kingdom comes out, right, I see what you're saying.

1612
01:54:06.720 --> 01:54:15.119
Yeah, four game June Birthday.
It's summer vacation when you're a kid.

1613
01:54:15.479 --> 01:54:18.640
It was E three and now Summer
games Fest. Bunch of big,

1614
01:54:18.720 --> 01:54:24.840
dumb fun movies are coming out.
It's nice out. June's for me,

1615
01:54:24.960 --> 01:54:29.720
maybe maybe a ten, nine point
five my second favorite month. I think

1616
01:54:30.399 --> 01:54:33.039
June is really popping for me.
I'm going to give it an eight only

1617
01:54:33.079 --> 01:54:36.720
because it starts to get kind of
hot. It does, but it's I

1618
01:54:36.760 --> 01:54:40.640
really like it starts getting there.
Yeah, yeah, it's getting there.

1619
01:54:40.840 --> 01:54:46.479
Okay, I love it. It's
great. July's eight point five. I'm

1620
01:54:46.479 --> 01:54:50.800
going out to seven because the heat
gets July is gets hot. I love

1621
01:54:50.920 --> 01:54:56.479
July fourth too, God, I
love July fourth. What a wonderful,

1622
01:54:57.119 --> 01:55:00.960
wonderful Holidayea so fun. If you
three years ago, I would have given

1623
01:55:01.000 --> 01:55:06.640
it a six. However, now
fourth America that much? No, Well,

1624
01:55:06.880 --> 01:55:12.000
well, so now fourth July has
become my family's like big holiday.

1625
01:55:12.119 --> 01:55:15.520
It used to be Christmas, but
it's just harder for us to like combine.

1626
01:55:15.560 --> 01:55:17.840
But like the in laws, families
don't do anything for Fourth of July.

1627
01:55:18.000 --> 01:55:21.119
So now my parents we all go
back to their house fourth July weekend.

1628
01:55:21.399 --> 01:55:27.520
We camp out intense like surrounding the
house and then swim all all weekend

1629
01:55:27.560 --> 01:55:31.279
and grill. It's just grill.
It's like nine to me times, it's

1630
01:55:31.279 --> 01:55:35.600
great, but it also is like
super hot. I think July because of

1631
01:55:35.640 --> 01:55:41.479
all the like American traditions, all
of the fanfare, and just like the

1632
01:55:41.520 --> 01:55:44.279
abs of love. Even though it's
hot, I gotta I gotta give July

1633
01:55:44.359 --> 01:55:47.760
and nine. I think it's really
a lovely a lovely months. It's a

1634
01:55:47.800 --> 01:55:49.960
better month. I will say,
like if we were to go to like

1635
01:55:50.239 --> 01:55:56.159
Cape Cod near the ocean, but
like landlocked Central New York gets hot in

1636
01:55:56.239 --> 01:55:59.039
July, but like Cape Cod in
July, Well, I've never been to

1637
01:55:59.079 --> 01:56:01.000
Cape con Joly's. Maybe it's an
eight. I'm between an eight and nine.

1638
01:56:01.079 --> 01:56:04.159
I really thinking about now. It's
real good here in Minnesota, and

1639
01:56:04.199 --> 01:56:11.760
I have been back for July every
day. Yeah, explosions. It's all

1640
01:56:11.800 --> 01:56:16.279
real good boats and stuff. Yeah, and the books. I'm getting excited

1641
01:56:16.279 --> 01:56:18.439
about July and Minnesota. Now,
yeah, it's gonna be real good.

1642
01:56:18.600 --> 01:56:24.880
Yeah, July is fucking poppin all
right, So August eight. I love

1643
01:56:24.920 --> 01:56:28.960
August these days. August is nice. I think it gets and August gets

1644
01:56:29.000 --> 01:56:33.920
hotter than July. Often here,
however, the city is like can be

1645
01:56:34.000 --> 01:56:39.359
dead in August, and often the
beginning of August, we actually do leave

1646
01:56:39.399 --> 01:56:44.279
as well. But I kind of
prefer staying here because then like my neighborhood

1647
01:56:44.319 --> 01:56:46.399
and our favorite neighborhoods, like,
oh, we don't even need a reservation

1648
01:56:46.439 --> 01:56:49.039
at this place that's usually impossible to
get into. And then you get into

1649
01:56:49.039 --> 01:56:53.079
a bar, and if it's a
nice August day, the windows are open,

1650
01:56:53.119 --> 01:56:55.079
but if it's not, you at
least duck in and hide out with

1651
01:56:55.119 --> 01:56:58.479
the ac you have a few like
mohitos or something. It's awesome. I

1652
01:56:58.560 --> 01:57:03.119
like August eight. It's just a
solid month. It's not it's pretty hot,

1653
01:57:03.159 --> 01:57:09.479
it's unpretentious. It's it's not like
boasting about anything. It doesn't think

1654
01:57:09.479 --> 01:57:12.920
it's a June, and it knows
that, and I respect that. It's

1655
01:57:12.960 --> 01:57:15.600
like the shennon Blanc of months.
As we were all thinking, I was

1656
01:57:15.760 --> 01:57:23.039
thinking that September. I fucking love
September because my mid Oh yeah, when

1657
01:57:23.039 --> 01:57:25.479
I was a kid. Well,
I think when anybody was a kid,

1658
01:57:25.520 --> 01:57:30.840
they hated September. It's when school
started again. Yeah, now though that's

1659
01:57:30.840 --> 01:57:34.000
my birthday. The weather's great in
September, although again, early September you

1660
01:57:34.039 --> 01:57:39.800
could still get balls hot. Sometimes. I'm going to give September eight,

1661
01:57:40.279 --> 01:57:45.479
but nine September is really nice because
it's leaf season. That's too. Yeah,

1662
01:57:45.479 --> 01:57:49.520
when the leafs start to change that. Yeah, we all live in

1663
01:57:49.560 --> 01:57:56.479
good leaf areas. I would venture
to say, well, I don't live

1664
01:57:56.520 --> 01:57:59.880
in New England, but New England
leaf season is pretty nuts here. It's

1665
01:58:00.079 --> 01:58:03.600
insane. You just get buried.
Where I'm at would be two. Yeah,

1666
01:58:03.600 --> 01:58:11.359
I'm gonna say it. Ten September. I really love leaf season.

1667
01:58:12.119 --> 01:58:15.600
I hated September in uh, San
Francisco, that was the hot month.

1668
01:58:16.119 --> 01:58:21.840
Not not anymore. San Francisco doesn't
get to talk about months, truely.

1669
01:58:21.880 --> 01:58:26.960
Yeah, it's the same like all
the time. San Francisco is gorgeous.

1670
01:58:26.960 --> 01:58:32.760
In October, I'm giving a ten. October is a ten. Weather's perfect

1671
01:58:34.159 --> 01:58:39.800
You're right, I got too excited. October is the ten. Yeah,

1672
01:58:40.039 --> 01:58:43.000
I think that's my favorite month now, and I'm not like so much fun

1673
01:58:43.079 --> 01:58:49.800
Halloween it's funny. Yeah, the
weather's like it's like it can be seventy

1674
01:58:49.880 --> 01:58:53.479
and gorgeous and then like once the
sun starts to go down and can go

1675
01:58:53.479 --> 01:58:57.520
down to like sixty five and then
it's like a fire outside fire. But

1676
01:58:57.560 --> 01:59:00.319
you could also wake up and it's
like a sunny morning and like seven to

1677
01:59:00.680 --> 01:59:02.960
go on a bike ride and yeah, fucking wedding or fucking wedding. The

1678
01:59:03.000 --> 01:59:08.479
weather was like the most oh,
sublime night I've ever seen in my fantastic

1679
01:59:08.560 --> 01:59:13.319
Yeah. Perfect, That's a ten
of the season. I like November quite

1680
01:59:13.319 --> 01:59:15.720
a bit too. November drops down
to about a seven point five for me.

1681
01:59:15.199 --> 01:59:18.720
Yeah, November gets a little chilli. It is nice, but I'm

1682
01:59:18.760 --> 01:59:24.159
gonna have to give November a seven. And I'm not a big Thanksgiving guy.

1683
01:59:24.319 --> 01:59:26.680
There's just too much weird food that
I never liked, you know,

1684
01:59:26.720 --> 01:59:29.359
I didn't like I'm not getting presents
in the food. There's all this food

1685
01:59:29.359 --> 01:59:35.479
I'm expected to eat getting. Yeah, I'm getting candy. July I get

1686
01:59:35.520 --> 01:59:39.520
to blow things up and eat hot
dogs. You know. Christmas Birthday,

1687
01:59:39.560 --> 01:59:42.640
I get the presents. Thanksgiving is
like, oh good, I have to

1688
01:59:42.680 --> 01:59:45.399
go to someone's house and they're gonna
they're gonna all give me shipped for like

1689
01:59:45.560 --> 01:59:50.079
just eating a roll. I like
November because that's that's when like fall really

1690
01:59:50.199 --> 01:59:55.439
kicks in, and I love Fall. I'll go eight and I like I

1691
01:59:55.640 --> 01:59:58.359
we got to host Thanksgiving last year, which was the maybe one of the

1692
01:59:58.399 --> 02:00:00.439
best Thanksgiving me my life. It
was fucking posting it. You would think

1693
02:00:00.439 --> 02:00:03.039
it would be annoying, like doing
a lot of the cleaning and whatnot.

1694
02:00:03.079 --> 02:00:06.399
I mean people everybody pitched in,
but it was so nice to not leave

1695
02:00:06.680 --> 02:00:12.359
our home. Sure, oh it
was awesome. I'll go quiet. Oh

1696
02:00:12.359 --> 02:00:16.880
wow, wait December November. Oh
November, Oh five is so low.

1697
02:00:17.039 --> 02:00:24.880
Seven December is so high. I
think it's Christmas. The lights on people's

1698
02:00:24.920 --> 02:00:28.920
houses. You get like at least
a week off of work because they just

1699
02:00:28.960 --> 02:00:35.119
have to or you're a monster.
Like the the atmosphere, like the the

1700
02:00:35.199 --> 02:00:40.520
feeling and that you know I'm talking
about the most it's got the most distinct

1701
02:00:40.680 --> 02:00:45.399
personality of any month feel and they
treat each other is better. In December,

1702
02:00:45.560 --> 02:00:48.560
you get gifts you give gifts,
it's a nine. It's so good,

1703
02:00:48.720 --> 02:00:53.319
I'd say nine. Yeah, I'll
go nine point five for December.

1704
02:00:53.359 --> 02:00:56.720
I really like December. It's a
busy one. It can be overwhelming,

1705
02:00:56.800 --> 02:01:00.199
especially when New Year's comes around.
It's like a fuck stuff. But yeah,

1706
02:01:00.199 --> 02:01:03.039
actually I'm gonna lover it a bit
because the last I don't know,

1707
02:01:03.119 --> 02:01:09.520
like growing up and then or even
until into college, people are like,

1708
02:01:09.680 --> 02:01:13.520
hey, remember, like the holidays
can be a stressful time for some people,

1709
02:01:13.680 --> 02:01:16.159
Like you know, I'm not talking
about like you know, like how

1710
02:01:16.159 --> 02:01:19.159
it can be a big trigger for
depression. I totally get that. That

1711
02:01:19.199 --> 02:01:21.760
sucks. I'm talking about it's like, hey, like adults have a lot

1712
02:01:21.800 --> 02:01:25.720
of responsibilities around holidays, and as
a kid and teenager in like college,

1713
02:01:25.800 --> 02:01:30.239
dudents like fuck you you know.
Yeah. And then now I'm getting to

1714
02:01:30.239 --> 02:01:31.920
the point where i' was like,
oh yeah, the travel weird, especially

1715
02:01:32.000 --> 02:01:35.560
after Thanksgiving just happened. Could stack
up. That's the thing. It's a

1716
02:01:35.640 --> 02:01:40.640
tough one. It's a huge family
specifically with what we do because like I

1717
02:01:40.680 --> 02:01:43.720
think about this and like, yeah, we're coming off of Thanksgiving first week

1718
02:01:43.720 --> 02:01:45.880
of December. I'm always doing the
Game Awards the second week. It seems

1719
02:01:45.880 --> 02:01:48.800
like we've been doing our Game of
the Year stuff. To see Matt maroony

1720
02:01:48.800 --> 02:01:56.840
filled hell whole of a house.
Absolutely, this is really nice Christmas.

1721
02:01:57.000 --> 02:01:59.680
It's all very good stuff. Like
I love the TGAs. I love doing

1722
02:01:59.720 --> 02:02:01.439
our game Game of the Year.
We've got to do Giant Bombs. Game

1723
02:02:01.479 --> 02:02:03.159
of the Year. I got Christmas, got New Year's. There's just so

1724
02:02:03.279 --> 02:02:08.199
much in terms of bad. Yeah, you get a week off it's and

1725
02:02:08.239 --> 02:02:10.680
then a week before Christmas, like, oh fuck, I have not gotten

1726
02:02:10.680 --> 02:02:15.560
a single gift outside of like it
is. Or I get my gifts usually

1727
02:02:15.560 --> 02:02:17.640
in the summer. I know that
sounds crazy, but I usually pocket my

1728
02:02:17.720 --> 02:02:24.159
gifts for months in advance. I
start the process usually not always because it

1729
02:02:24.159 --> 02:02:28.960
depends on if I'm doing anything cool
that year. But like this was years

1730
02:02:29.000 --> 02:02:32.800
ago, but years ago, when
I went to TGS, I bought every

1731
02:02:32.920 --> 02:02:36.039
Christmas gift in Japan because I was
like, you're all getting something cool from

1732
02:02:36.119 --> 02:02:41.279
Japan, and like this year,
if you know, like whenever I travel,

1733
02:02:41.399 --> 02:02:44.720
it's like you're all getting something from
wherever I travel. I love doing

1734
02:02:44.720 --> 02:02:46.119
that. I think it's really fun. And then I don't stress in December

1735
02:02:46.159 --> 02:02:48.640
because it's like I already got everybody, and it's something. It's a good

1736
02:02:48.640 --> 02:02:54.319
idea. I just I guess I
gotta find a summer when I don't have.

1737
02:02:54.720 --> 02:02:58.000
I feel like the summer sometimes is
even busier. Maybe it's July.

1738
02:02:58.119 --> 02:03:01.319
It will be a good time.
So I've got five trips. I have

1739
02:03:01.359 --> 02:03:04.960
like five trips in July. It's
I think July might actually be the only

1740
02:03:05.039 --> 02:03:09.000
month in twenty twenty four I know
were. I mean, we're going to

1741
02:03:09.079 --> 02:03:14.039
again my parents first weekend, simple
train up and down. But outside of

1742
02:03:14.079 --> 02:03:17.720
that, I don't think we're That's
the only month I think without a flight

1743
02:03:17.800 --> 02:03:25.319
this year. Jeez. But yeah, December is really good. But I

1744
02:03:25.319 --> 02:03:30.159
think are my number one is October. Yeah, and then I think May,

1745
02:03:30.960 --> 02:03:41.079
yep, June, September, August, December. I'll probably not say

1746
02:03:41.079 --> 02:03:44.680
December yet. No, Oh,
December is higher up than I put it.

1747
02:03:44.760 --> 02:03:47.199
I don't know. Some people you
know put it in the top four.

1748
02:03:47.560 --> 02:03:51.079
It's in my top twelve. I
said June and October, June,

1749
02:03:51.079 --> 02:03:55.079
October, in May, if I
had to pick a top three. Thank

1750
02:03:55.119 --> 02:04:00.760
you Matthew from Barcelona. I think
he says he in the South. I

1751
02:04:00.840 --> 02:04:06.159
just assumed he meant of Spain because
he's getting Spanish ads. Thank you.

1752
02:04:06.680 --> 02:04:14.479
He's probably like, what, Matthew, you actually miss Matteo misspelled his name.

1753
02:04:14.520 --> 02:04:16.000
But you can write in let us
know where you actually live. Well,

1762
02:04:46.039 --> 02:04:50.640
We also have new merch for the
sum we have we have all our old

1763
02:04:50.640 --> 02:04:53.560
merch. If you don't have any
of that that you're stocked up on,

1764
02:04:53.600 --> 02:04:56.279
speaking of getting Christmas gifts early,
go buy some of that. But Mary

1765
02:04:56.720 --> 02:05:02.439
tell him about our summer line that
J Crew has called the most electrifying threads

1766
02:05:02.600 --> 02:05:06.880
of twenty twenty four. They did
say that they did sixty months. It's

1767
02:05:06.920 --> 02:05:13.279
high season. Get the fuck out
of here. Alexander McQueen. We have

1768
02:05:13.439 --> 02:05:18.359
released an exclusive set of jorts with
our logo on it. That's not true.

1769
02:05:18.399 --> 02:05:21.000
I haven't done that. I was
just lying. What. No.

1770
02:05:21.439 --> 02:05:29.159
We have release banana yellow bathing suits. We have released really slutty two piece

1771
02:05:29.239 --> 02:05:34.159
bikinis. We have released a tied
I shirt that is specifically for when you

1772
02:05:34.239 --> 02:05:39.560
are on drugs. We've released a
tank top to show off your guns,

1773
02:05:39.840 --> 02:05:44.359
a hat to cover up your noodle. We have released so much good swag

1774
02:05:44.479 --> 02:05:49.199
and ten percent off when you use
the code fire sale. I'm only now

1775
02:05:49.239 --> 02:05:56.039
just seeing that they like put our
merch on models, and I'm seeing that,

1776
02:05:56.239 --> 02:06:00.720
No, we hired those models.
Oh yeah, that's just that's Jess

1777
02:06:00.720 --> 02:06:05.199
and that's Katalda. I'm now seeing
it for the first time. Oh she,

1778
02:06:05.399 --> 02:06:10.840
Oh my god, camera loves Katalda. But now I'm seeing the bikini

1779
02:06:10.920 --> 02:06:15.600
on them and it's it's just a
sick, fucking piece of cloth. It

1780
02:06:15.760 --> 02:06:21.560
really is. Yeah, go go
get those. I will, Can I

1781
02:06:21.600 --> 02:06:26.359
can I spoil what the biggest cellar
is so far? Sure, go for

1782
02:06:26.399 --> 02:06:28.840
it. People are loving the tied
ice shirt. It looks like for this

1783
02:06:29.000 --> 02:06:31.560
it is good. It is good. I want to get that it's fun

1784
02:06:31.640 --> 02:06:34.319
and it has the logo on the
arm. We've never done that on a

1785
02:06:34.359 --> 02:06:39.000
shirt before. So if you want
to try something different, I think it's

1786
02:06:39.039 --> 02:06:45.279
festive. You will walk around and
everyone will say you crazy, clown you,

1787
02:06:45.279 --> 02:06:49.279
you are crazy with those collars.
Get out here, I really will,

1788
02:06:49.960 --> 02:06:53.479
That's what they'll say. I really
should get this tank top and then

1789
02:06:53.560 --> 02:06:57.640
wear it on an episode. You
should. I just don't know. I

1790
02:06:57.680 --> 02:07:00.239
don't know if anybody like I don't
want to show. Thank you Mom told

1791
02:07:00.279 --> 02:07:04.119
this. Yeah, that's me on
the web soon live, laugh, fuck,

1792
02:07:04.279 --> 02:07:15.079
suck whatever suck. And then Dan
another another shirt says I only play

1793
02:07:15.119 --> 02:07:19.720
wet games. Yeah, I hate
that stupid uh shirt. I have had

1794
02:07:19.880 --> 02:07:24.279
a lot of people say that we
should have a Dana's Right shirt, So

1795
02:07:24.840 --> 02:07:28.000
be a good one, be a
good one. I saw somebody say that

1796
02:07:28.039 --> 02:07:31.479
there should be dueling dan is Right
and Dana's Wrong shirts. It's a pull

1797
02:07:31.560 --> 02:07:34.640
and a's shirts at the same time. Which one wins in the sales?

1798
02:07:35.399 --> 02:07:41.399
Well, that's uh. Is that
fire Escape merch dot com? Or is

1799
02:07:41.439 --> 02:07:46.319
that the one the other one?
So that the summer line the summer line

1800
02:07:46.359 --> 02:07:49.039
is on fourth Wall. Yeah,
fire Skate Merch. Just go to fire

1801
02:07:49.079 --> 02:07:53.079
skate merch dot com and you'll find
it. And then the summer line is

1802
02:07:53.119 --> 02:07:56.319
literally the first ones you see when
you scroll down. Correct plus the T

1803
02:07:56.520 --> 02:07:59.359
shirt and you get something. We're
doing the fire sale. You get some

1804
02:07:59.359 --> 02:08:03.079
some bonus percentage off. We uh
only off the summer line, so it

1805
02:08:03.119 --> 02:08:07.479
won't work like the mug because that's
for winter, you bitch. Until the

1806
02:08:07.520 --> 02:08:11.319
fourth of July weekend you can get. Don't you fucking buy that mug?

1807
02:08:11.720 --> 02:08:15.159
If you wait until after fourth of
July, you will not get the discount

1808
02:08:15.760 --> 02:08:18.760
unless we forget to turn off the
discount, in which case you will have

1809
02:08:18.880 --> 02:08:22.680
it auto, have it set to
turn off. Oh has an auto set?

1810
02:08:22.800 --> 02:08:28.359
God, it's only good for summer, the summer months. Okay,

1811
02:08:28.039 --> 02:08:35.159
well that's great, Dan. What
can people do with those stars and ratings

1812
02:08:35.199 --> 02:08:37.319
on different platforms and what I mean? They can give us the good ones.

1813
02:08:37.359 --> 02:08:39.720
I don't even know if that matters
anymore for podcasts, but if you're

1814
02:08:39.720 --> 02:08:43.119
bored, I mean, just give
us the good stars. That'd be good.

1815
02:08:43.119 --> 02:08:46.960
I don't know if it helps us, but Time's day. Our gifts

1816
02:08:46.000 --> 02:08:50.880
can be five stars. Do it
now, don't do it, don't wait

1817
02:08:50.920 --> 02:08:54.239
for February. That is so boring
of you? How dare you? Five

1818
02:08:54.279 --> 02:08:56.640
stars? And Dan is right?
Just a bunch of reviews to say Dan

1819
02:08:56.760 --> 02:09:00.680

for two weeks in France. It's
gonna be fucking sick. Sounds amazing,

1854
02:11:16.000 --> 02:11:20.199
It's gonna be fucking sick. It's
gonna be so sick. I'm gonna be

1855
02:11:20.399 --> 02:11:26.279
waiting burrito trucks at three in the
morning after long shows and made Dan and

1856
02:11:26.520 --> 02:11:30.680

By joining, that's Spanish, thank you

1859

episode, you know what I mean?

1860
02:11:46.399 --> 02:11:52.920
It was fun fine, so vehement. I just have to yell at any

1861
02:11:52.960 --> 02:11:56.439
moment, so it is. It's
just like it's so triggering if you yell

1862
02:11:56.520 --> 02:12:01.079
over it to justify that it's not
me. Want everyone to know that I

1863

am I am in control. I
don't I'm a control yea. We will
