WEBVTT 1 00:00:02.359 --> 00:00:08.400 This is an Unspoiled Network podcast. This is spoil Me 2 00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:15.439 covering Dungeon Crawler Carl chapters forty two through forty five. 3 00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:23.079 In these chapters, I was correct about the fact that 4 00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:26.760 the next interview wasn't going to go as smoothly as 5 00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:32.600 the last one. Honestly though, it was pretty fun to 6 00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:36.079 get to see Carl take control of the situation and 7 00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:41.600 absolutely crush it the way that he does. How satisfying. 8 00:00:43.000 --> 00:01:04.760 Welcome to spoil Me, Welcome to the show everyone. I 9 00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:09.079 am Natasha. Thank you very much to Michael for commissioning 10 00:01:09.120 --> 00:01:14.719 this episode. Michael, this has been so much fun. And 11 00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:18.560 this section. I listened to this while I was taking 12 00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:22.519 a walk with pippin the other night, and it was 13 00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:24.719 dark and I didn't get a chance to take him 14 00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:28.640 until like probably like ten thirty PM. And I'm always 15 00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:32.760 very conscious when I am listening to an audiobook that's 16 00:01:32.760 --> 00:01:38.640 particularly funny that it might be extremely creepy to people 17 00:01:39.760 --> 00:01:44.680 when I am out in the dark laughing all by myself, 18 00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:50.120 I feel like, probably it comes across as unnerving, and 19 00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:52.719 so yeah, I just tried to keep behold of myself 20 00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:55.519 this time, but I definitely like more than once was 21 00:01:55.560 --> 00:02:04.959 cackling this whole vibe. I I'm just going to get 22 00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:11.240 into it. Let's just start so chapter forty one or 23 00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:15.560 forty two. Sorry, they we pick up with them still 24 00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:23.199 in that green room sort of area, And the way 25 00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:26.000 that this works is like that they are able to 26 00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:30.120 see things but not be seen because it's all virtual, 27 00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:34.080 So they can like appear to be sitting in the 28 00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:36.879 seats that they will eventually be shown to the audience 29 00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:39.719 in and so watch the whole thing even though the 30 00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:43.439 audience isn't observing them yet. And it's sort of like 31 00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.599 a fun way for this to be set up because 32 00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:52.759 I just like the fact that he gets the chance 33 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.439 to get the measure of this guy before he's on 34 00:02:56.080 --> 00:02:59.319 stage with him, so to speak, because the other two 35 00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:05.560 dudes who get pulled on are obviously completely unprepared for 36 00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:10.319 who it is they're talking to, Like I'm not really 37 00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:14.800 sure there's a way to be prepared for who he is. 38 00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:21.199 But I don't blame them for like handling things. I 39 00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:24.759 won't say as poorly as they did, because they're really 40 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.439 I don't feel like they did. It's just that they 41 00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:30.759 were put in a position with a fucking maniac, so 42 00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:33.680 they were doing their best, and it does seem like 43 00:03:33.719 --> 00:03:41.400 there might be like just almost like they're they're not 44 00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:45.039 understanding the intent of the show, which is to be 45 00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:49.080 mean spirited, so they're confused by it. Which is always 46 00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:52.759 something that I find fascinating is when a person just 47 00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:56.000 like can't conceive of the fact that somebody is just 48 00:03:56.039 --> 00:04:00.159 trying to be a piece of shit. And so it's 49 00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:03.520 almost the tactic that people have taken to lately when 50 00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:08.960 they say, like, if somebody makes an offensive joke, pretend 51 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:12.599 that you don't get it, and ask them to explain 52 00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:16.160 it to you, and all of a sudden, they're going 53 00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:20.519 to be a lot less eager because the whole thing 54 00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:23.199 is supposed to be it's funny because you share the 55 00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:26.680 same biases that I do. But now if I don't 56 00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:30.279 get it, then one clearly I don't share those biases, 57 00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:32.399 because otherwise the joke would have made sense to me. 58 00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:36.480 And secondly, now you have to explain that you have 59 00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:40.680 these biases, and it makes you look like an asshole. 60 00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:43.240 So that's sort of what it feels like here, is 61 00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:46.360 that these guys are just like not getting what's supposed 62 00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:52.279 to be going on, and it's resulting in this weird 63 00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:58.120 energy because they are being led by the hand through it. 64 00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:03.319 And clearly that's part of what this fucking dude enjoys 65 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:08.759 is the fact that like the dawning horror right of 66 00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:13.439 these dungeon crawlers as they begin to understand what it 67 00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:19.759 is that he is setting them up for. So for Carl, 68 00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:23.279 he gets such a leg up sitting on the side 69 00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:28.879 and seeing exactly the way this guy operates so that 70 00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:34.079 he can go in there with a particular attitude. So 71 00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:43.040 the opening of this I focused on a group of 72 00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:46.959 humans sitting in the second row, hooting and screaming and 73 00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:51.319 laughing boisterously. There was a cruel air to their laughter. 74 00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:55.720 It was almost a tangible thing, like a black, malevolent 75 00:05:55.839 --> 00:06:00.120 cloud that embraced the presence of the entire audience. I 76 00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.519 was reminded of that day when my dad and his 77 00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:06.040 friends broke my sling shot. They'd been firing rocks at 78 00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:10.519 squirrels laughing in a similar way. These humans in the 79 00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:14.000 second row were all male, and they were all about 80 00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:18.439 twelve or thirteen years old. It seemed the entire audience 81 00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:22.879 consisted of young, pre and early teen males. One of 82 00:06:22.920 --> 00:06:27.000 them was wearing a red shirt that said glurp on it. 83 00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:32.959 Glurt glurp. The audience yelled, glurt glurp. Donut, I said, 84 00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:35.680 talking quickly, this crowd is going to be a lot 85 00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:37.920 different than the last one. They're all kids. I don't 86 00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:41.360 think they're the happy cartoon watching kind either. Carl, we've 87 00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:44.920 gone over this, Donut said. You sit there and look angry, 88 00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:49.920 and I do the talking, remember, and then they get 89 00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:53.639 the on air soon and we have this guy. No, 90 00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:58.079 you little cunts are gonna love today's surprise panelists here. 91 00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:01.800 Maestro had to bang some blimey mud skipper tail to 92 00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:04.639 pull this one off. But nothing is too good for 93 00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:09.759 Maestro's piglets. Suck it, suck it, good piglets. Glurt blurt. 94 00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:18.160 The audience screamed, glurt blurt. I hate him so much. 95 00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:28.600 Oh my god, you guys. I look, I'm gonna I'm 96 00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:33.720 gonna preface this with something first. I want to acknowledge 97 00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:40.439 there is a ton of excellent content on YouTube, really 98 00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:44.920 really good stuff. Okay, I am not trying to say 99 00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:47.480 if you are on YouTube, then you are trash, because 100 00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:53.680 that's just fucking idiotic. I actually kind of want to 101 00:07:53.759 --> 00:07:57.399 spend more time on YouTube in some ways because I 102 00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:00.279 feel like I have not taken advantage of everything has 103 00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:03.639 to offer, and there are so many independent creators on 104 00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:06.240 there that deserve more attention, and I just tend to 105 00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:10.839 watch like network TV, you know. So I just really 106 00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:13.959 really want to be clear that I am not trying 107 00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:20.199 to group in all YouTubers, because that's doesn't make any sense. 108 00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:22.959 It's like acting like my podcast is the same as, like, 109 00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:26.879 you know, an NPR podcast like that doesn't even They're 110 00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:34.039 not even what you know. But when I think of YouTube, 111 00:08:34.759 --> 00:08:37.360 this is the reason I haven't done as much with it. 112 00:08:38.200 --> 00:08:43.159 This vibe is what I think of unfortunately, and I 113 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:48.720 really feel like that I am not alone in that. 114 00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:52.799 I really think that maybe this is a hurdle that 115 00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:57.639 YouTube has had to learn how to jump and navigate, 116 00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:01.440 because I cannot be the only one that sort of 117 00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:05.840 has this weird hang up and bias where I just 118 00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:11.559 associate the entire platform at it, like just off the 119 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:20.360 top of my head, with this very juvenile, like cruel 120 00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:29.279 and mean spirited sort of energy. It's I think improved 121 00:09:29.360 --> 00:09:35.159 some the way that oh my god, Rob is in 122 00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:37.639 the chat says one hundred percent, don't let friends drink 123 00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:41.639 from the algo stream. Yeah, this is That's kind of 124 00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:46.679 what has has been a bit of a stumbling block 125 00:09:46.759 --> 00:09:49.480 for me is that I don't know where to start 126 00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:54.840 in watching certain things on YouTube. To get the algorithm 127 00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:59.120 working for me, I would be going in blind and 128 00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:02.159 potentially set the algorithm up to show me more of 129 00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:04.879 something that I didn't like, and I don't know how 130 00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:07.639 to undo that. Like, there have been a couple times 131 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:10.720 where things have shown up on my feed and I 132 00:10:10.919 --> 00:10:13.320 have tried to figure out how to like click them 133 00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:15.519 and be like, don't show me anything more like this, 134 00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:18.799 and I can't figure out how to do that. I 135 00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:21.720 only wind up clicking through and starting to watch it, 136 00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:25.200 and then I have to remove it from my viewing history, 137 00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:28.799 which it seems like that's kind of the only way anyway. 138 00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:37.000 All I'm saying is I think that the worst parts 139 00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:40.440 of YouTube are like this, and that this is like 140 00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:45.519 one of the first steps towards young men getting radicalized 141 00:10:45.639 --> 00:10:51.600 by maniacs that have no knowledge or information and yet 142 00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:57.799 have a platform. And it's such a fucking mixed bag, guys, 143 00:10:57.919 --> 00:11:02.120 because on the one hand, and I think that in 144 00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:07.840 part the fact that we don't need to have any 145 00:11:08.039 --> 00:11:12.159 special education and we can still create content. Is one 146 00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:15.679 of the great things about the Internet that there is 147 00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:18.799 something beautiful about the fact that you can just share 148 00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:21.960 anything as long as you are able to put it 149 00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:26.159 out there, like if you have the right equipment to 150 00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:29.600 do it, anybody can do it. And it's part of 151 00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:32.039 what I love about podcasting that it is so open. 152 00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:35.679 But of course there's that double edged sword to it, 153 00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:41.080 where then you get absolute fucking maniacs. And there was 154 00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:43.159 some I can't remember who it was, but it was 155 00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:45.399 some actor the other day and he was like a 156 00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:47.840 very He was not famous, but he was somebody that 157 00:11:47.879 --> 00:11:50.159 I saw in a weird little thing and I was 158 00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:53.480 sort of like wondering about what else he had done. 159 00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:57.120 And I saw a link to an interview with him, 160 00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:01.840 and I don't remember the name of the show. It 161 00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:05.080 was something like Ugly on the Inside, I think was 162 00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.840 the name of it. And it was these two guys 163 00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:14.159 interviewing him, and I felt like I lost half my 164 00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:18.320 brain cells watching this, Like I think I got through 165 00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:23.600 about fifteen minutes, which is like admirable, frankly considering, and 166 00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:27.679 they the person that was being interviewed was the most 167 00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:31.200 intelligent one in the room for sure. The two dudes 168 00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:37.600 who run the show. It was like talking to like 169 00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:43.519 it felt like they were like fourteen years old. And 170 00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:46.279 I was at least relieved when I went into the 171 00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:50.320 comments that everybody was dogging on these guys because apparently 172 00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:53.080 a lot of other people had followed this actor to 173 00:12:53.159 --> 00:12:56.240 this interview, and so most people were there for him, 174 00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:59.759 and they were just appalled by how bad the show 175 00:12:59.919 --> 00:13:04.600 was overall. And I did feel better about that, because 176 00:13:04.600 --> 00:13:07.919 there's nothing worse than watching something and thinking it is 177 00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:11.320 god awful and then seeing everybody hyping it up and 178 00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:15.519 being like, what am I crazy? Is this gaslighting? Like, 179 00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:18.720 I at least felt better. Everybody seemed to be in 180 00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:24.360 agreement that these guys were complete fucking morons. But it's 181 00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:29.720 it's you know, part of having an open platform is 182 00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:34.320 that you get what you get. Rob says, the best 183 00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:37.000 thing you can do is use an alternative client like 184 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:42.600 new Pipe, which doesn't auto play videos. I do not 185 00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:44.759 know what you mean, Rob, I didn't know that YouTube 186 00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:50.480 auto played videos. Uh that I don't like that. And 187 00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:52.639 I also don't know what new Pipe is and why 188 00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:56.320 is it a client and not a platform. I have 189 00:13:56.399 --> 00:13:58.840 a lot of questions, Rob. In short, but let's get 190 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:05.039 back to the book. So this dude, the whole point 191 00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:08.840 of this, we find out later, is likely that he 192 00:14:08.960 --> 00:14:11.720 and his brother are being given this show to keep 193 00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:16.399 them busy and out of their dad's hair, so to speak, 194 00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:26.000 because they are very privileged, spoiled brats. He stood about 195 00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:28.440 six and a half feet tall, built like a tank. 196 00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:31.960 A line of earrings circled his left ear. He wore 197 00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:36.360 a hot pink silken shirt buttoned halfway up, revealing a hairy, 198 00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:41.159 well muscled chest covered in gold chains. I couldn't tell 199 00:14:41.240 --> 00:14:43.879 for certain, but I had the distinct impression he was 200 00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:49.480 only in his early twenties. I hated him instantly. To 201 00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:53.039 my right now sat two humans, two men about my age. 202 00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:58.320 Both were Asian, their ragged, bewildered look pegnam as fellow crawlers. 203 00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:01.159 One of them noticed us and point talking quickly to 204 00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:03.600 his companion. I couldn't hear what they were saying, but 205 00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:06.559 it seemed like they recognized us. I waved, and they 206 00:15:06.600 --> 00:15:10.320 waved back, both of them bowing rapidly. They turned and 207 00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:12.840 also waved at the empty chairs to their right. There 208 00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:15.360 was someone there, but we couldn't see who it was. 209 00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:23.480 So here comes the Maestro this orc. So we have 210 00:15:23.600 --> 00:15:29.799 six guests today, two stupid lame guests, two VIP surprise guests, 211 00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:34.759 and then two more surprised guests surprise guests for are VIPs. 212 00:15:35.480 --> 00:15:38.279 Our VIP today are so hot. We are for the 213 00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:41.639 very first time coming to you live. That is how 214 00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:45.799 hard I am working for you. And that really winds 215 00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:48.600 up biting him in the ass. If it weren't for 216 00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:51.039 that it were live, I think maybe things could have 217 00:15:51.039 --> 00:15:53.559 gone a different way. But when it's live, you just 218 00:15:53.600 --> 00:15:57.399 got to adjust and roll with things to a certain degree. 219 00:15:57.799 --> 00:16:01.559 And it, I think is is like where a lot 220 00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:08.799 of his troubles end up coming from. So we see 221 00:16:08.879 --> 00:16:11.080 this set up with these people who have turned a 222 00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:14.879 corner and come across a bunch of those hornets and 223 00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:22.759 a couple of those lizards, and they have splattered the 224 00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:28.039 the hornet has splattered this like burning as acidic sort 225 00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:33.120 of glop on a guy's face. There's three men and 226 00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:37.799 one woman, and these two dudes have been pulled directly 227 00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:42.480 out of that confrontation, and the Maestro is presenting them 228 00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:45.639 with like a situation that they have to deal with 229 00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:52.440 in order to potentially save one of their friends, maybe 230 00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:56.080 both of them, although that seems very unlikely and I 231 00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:59.200 was a little surprised, I'll be honest, I have to 232 00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:01.399 assume that this comes down to how much they were 233 00:17:01.399 --> 00:17:07.559 willing to pay. But I was really taken off guard 234 00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:12.200 by the fact that the Maestro has the authority to 235 00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:16.359 do anything that affects the actual game. Because it's one 236 00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:19.359 thing to be able to interview people and to you know, 237 00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:22.319 kind of fuck with their heads or you know, make 238 00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:25.279 them do silly games on your show that are exclusive 239 00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:29.920 to your show. It's another thing entirely to promise them 240 00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:34.079 things that actually will like get them to dip in 241 00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:38.359 and out of the game itself and affect who stays 242 00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:42.559 alive as a player. And I really wondered at first 243 00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:45.759 if he was just talking cash shit and couldn't do 244 00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.720 what he was saying he could do, And it seems 245 00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:51.920 like he can. So I am going to go ahead 246 00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:56.240 and like lump that in with the budget issues that 247 00:17:56.279 --> 00:17:59.279 we have been seeing with everything else, and just assume that, 248 00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:03.079 like we are so desperate for cash by now with 249 00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:07.640 this show that we are willing to throw in with 250 00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.440 these absolute ship bags just to make a fucking buck. 251 00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:15.279 I have to assume that it's if I give you 252 00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:19.079 enough money, will you let me toy with your players, 253 00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:27.400 and that they just managed to have enough money, So 254 00:18:29.279 --> 00:18:31.480 the fellow with the acne scars is Lee June, and 255 00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:35.400 the bald fucker will just call Zang say hello meet. 256 00:18:35.920 --> 00:18:37.960 It took the two men a moment to realize that 257 00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:41.880 Maestro was talking to them. Hello, Nie June said, I 258 00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:45.400 don't understand what is happening. Okay, so let me catch 259 00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:47.680 you up since you're too stupid to figure it out. 260 00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:51.200 You're on Deathwatch, a segment of my show. That means 261 00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:54.720 we just plucked you away from certain death. You're welcome. 262 00:18:55.240 --> 00:18:59.200 Before your plight was hopeless. Now you have a chance 263 00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:01.720 to survive. But we'll get to that in a second. 264 00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:05.200 You have been hit with a time freeze spell and 265 00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:08.000 it will run out just as this episode ends. We 266 00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:09.599 have a little game we'd like you to play to 267 00:19:09.599 --> 00:19:12.720 give you the opportunity to live past the next few seconds. 268 00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:16.920 We're gonna show you a series of scenes and you 269 00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:19.920 have to guess if the Crawler survives or not. But 270 00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:21.839 before we begin, I want to know a little about 271 00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:26.839 you guys, and we get some background that the woman 272 00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:31.720 is Legion's sister, and that the other guy, Zang, is 273 00:19:31.799 --> 00:19:34.599 best friends with Lesion, so he sees her as his 274 00:19:34.680 --> 00:19:38.759 sister also, and the guy that they got hit with 275 00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:47.119 the goop is their manager. And what the Maester is 276 00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:51.119 trying to do is be like you are. You are 277 00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:53.319 going to have to pick between the two of them 278 00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:58.240 more than likely. This is how it works. We're going 279 00:19:58.319 --> 00:19:59.720 to show you four scenes and we want you to 280 00:19:59.720 --> 00:20:02.160 guess the crawler's gonna live or die. If he gets correctly, 281 00:20:02.200 --> 00:20:06.759 you'll receive a teleport teleport point when we're done. For 282 00:20:06.839 --> 00:20:09.599 every point you have, you can spend it to save 283 00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:13.759 yourselves or one of your companions. The recipient of each 284 00:20:13.839 --> 00:20:18.000 teleport point will be immediately transferred to the closest safe room. 285 00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:21.079 If you decide to throw a point at old spooge face, 286 00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:24.880 he will be healed, So don't worry about that. Ready, good, 287 00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:30.519 let's go. And at this point, Carl gets up to 288 00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:34.759 fucking leave and is like climbing up on the table 289 00:20:34.839 --> 00:20:38.279 that is blocking him, and then this voice comes through 290 00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:42.799 and tells them to get back in his seat. I 291 00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:47.160 love this. Carl just tells him, go fuck yourself, Carl, 292 00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:50.000 you're gonna get us in trouble. Doughnut said, you are 293 00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:53.000 ordered to sit. We have paid the appearance fee and 294 00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:56.440 you will participate in the program. If you refuse, we 295 00:20:56.519 --> 00:20:59.279 are authorized to drop you into this ocean, drowning you 296 00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:03.920 both bullshit. I said, you're not boring and you're not 297 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:07.400 the syndicate. There's no way they'd authorize that. We are 298 00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:12.559 not participating in this cruelty. Nothing happened for several moments. 299 00:21:12.880 --> 00:21:15.359 Donut jump up to my shoulder. You're gonna get us 300 00:21:15.400 --> 00:21:21.240 in trouble. She said again, this time more quietly. Crawler, Carl, 301 00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:24.160 this is Administrator Mukta. You are required to take your 302 00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:27.680 seat or there will be consequences. I'll go on as 303 00:21:27.720 --> 00:21:30.359 many shows as you want, but we're not doing this one, 304 00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:34.039 I said, Carl. We will discuss this when you are done. 305 00:21:34.079 --> 00:21:37.400 If you do not participate, we will accelerate you. There 306 00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:40.200 are plenty of other crawlers to show on our program. 307 00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:44.079 This is not a bluff. Can that other guy hear 308 00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:48.559 me right now? No? He cannot. As long as I 309 00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:52.039 don't talk shit about you guys? Will there be consequences 310 00:21:52.039 --> 00:21:54.880 for what I say? As long as I participate, I mean, 311 00:21:55.920 --> 00:22:00.440 they have paid for your appearance, nothing else. All right, 312 00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:03.359 tell him we want on the show now before this 313 00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:08.119 death watch segment ends. Carl, what are you doing? I'm 314 00:22:08.200 --> 00:22:14.240 the one who talks this time, I said so. At 315 00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:18.440 this point, these dudes have two teleport points and they 316 00:22:18.480 --> 00:22:21.119 have decided they have to decide who they're going to pick, 317 00:22:21.640 --> 00:22:25.000 and they are deciding to die together like they're trying 318 00:22:25.079 --> 00:22:32.680 to show a unified front. It's uh. The one of 319 00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:36.720 them sang is sitting save Lejiun and Lena, and Lejun 320 00:22:36.920 --> 00:22:40.880 is like, no, we're not doing that. We stand together. 321 00:22:42.000 --> 00:22:46.240 A sour look passed across the Maestro's face. He said something, 322 00:22:46.279 --> 00:22:50.200 but it was muted. He paused, then nodded. A moment 323 00:22:50.319 --> 00:22:55.160 passed and the cruel smile reappeared on his face. We're 324 00:22:55.279 --> 00:22:58.720 gonna do something a little different, Piglets. Our VIP guests 325 00:22:58.759 --> 00:23:00.920 have been watching backstage, and it seems like they have 326 00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:05.079 something to say that Maestro was playing this off like 327 00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:12.160 it was his idea, and I like, I didn't really 328 00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:17.160 get exactly the glurt blurt thing until here where he says, 329 00:23:17.759 --> 00:23:20.599 we're gonna show what these crazy assholes did to get free, 330 00:23:20.920 --> 00:23:23.079 but since they want to suck on it so bad, 331 00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:26.160 we're gonna bring them on early, and this is when 332 00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:29.319 they start chanting glurt blurp again, and I was like, oh, 333 00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:32.279 because he told them earlier to suck on it, but 334 00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:34.799 now he's saying stuck on it for them. And then 335 00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:37.200 it just turns out that that's just sort of like 336 00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:43.000 the way that they say to like do anything is 337 00:23:43.079 --> 00:23:46.319 to suck on it. And I was like, I guess, 338 00:23:46.880 --> 00:23:48.720 I mean, the whole point is to be as like 339 00:23:49.319 --> 00:23:55.839 vulgar as possible to be shocking, right. It's it's so played, 340 00:23:55.960 --> 00:24:02.599 it's so embarrassing. It's very embarrassing. Hi, So Crawler Carl 341 00:24:02.799 --> 00:24:09.319 and Princess Donut Piglets. You probably don't know this. These 342 00:24:09.359 --> 00:24:12.279 two just broke a record for the most watched second 343 00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:17.079 floor battle in the history of Dungeon Crawler World. That 344 00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:19.720 is very impressive and I don't feel like they get 345 00:24:19.839 --> 00:24:26.160 nearly enough credit for that. Say hello to my piglets. 346 00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:28.720 We want it on the game, I said, not bothering 347 00:24:28.720 --> 00:24:31.079 to beat the crowd, to greet the crowd. We want 348 00:24:31.079 --> 00:24:34.759 to play death Watch too. That's not how it works, Carl. 349 00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:37.720 I knew you were a crazy mother. They have two points, 350 00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:40.920 let's use them to transfer me and Donut to that spot. 351 00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:44.480 I look at the crowd. Wouldn't that be cool? The 352 00:24:44.559 --> 00:24:50.240 crowd roared. People talk about how stupid you are, Carl, 353 00:24:50.279 --> 00:24:53.240 But I never realized you were this stupid. If you're 354 00:24:53.240 --> 00:24:58.359 feeling suicidal, then I leaned in, pointing my finger. No, 355 00:24:58.759 --> 00:25:01.599 you listen to me, poor boy. If you're gonna fuck 356 00:25:01.640 --> 00:25:03.839 with people like this, then at least make it fair. 357 00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:07.519 They played your game and they won two points. You 358 00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:10.279 said they can use those points to transfer people away. 359 00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:12.720 I don't see why it can't be used to transfer 360 00:25:12.799 --> 00:25:16.839 people in either. It doesn't work that way. You're not 361 00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:20.359 part of the game. It's against the rules. Yeah, fuck 362 00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:22.440 the rules. I looked at the crowd. I think we 363 00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:26.240 should tell the rules to suck it. What do you think, clerk? Glurp, 364 00:25:26.519 --> 00:25:32.839 blurt blurt. The Maestro did not like his audience glurping 365 00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:40.440 for someone else. Oh my god, I there. That whole 366 00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:45.240 line just speaks so many volumes on so many different levels, 367 00:25:45.319 --> 00:25:52.720 and is honestly like I, I have thoughts that I'll 368 00:25:52.759 --> 00:26:00.680 get to in a moment, and basically in his mind, 369 00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:03.240 Carl is like confessing, I don't want to do this, 370 00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:07.279 but I don't like this. You know, he's a fucking bully, 371 00:26:07.799 --> 00:26:09.960 and I gotta do something. I can't just sit here 372 00:26:10.000 --> 00:26:13.680 and watch these two guys get fucking like treated this way. 373 00:26:15.319 --> 00:26:17.799 And then he suddenly like thinks about the fact that 374 00:26:17.839 --> 00:26:21.279 the next two guests that he can't see are going 375 00:26:21.319 --> 00:26:24.599 to be specifically aimed at him in Donut and he's like, oh, 376 00:26:24.640 --> 00:26:26.119 I bet I know who it is, and I was like, 377 00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:29.279 I think so too, And they do indeed turn out 378 00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:33.519 to be who we thought. But it's a different situation 379 00:26:33.640 --> 00:26:38.799 than you would expect. On television shows and in kids' books, 380 00:26:39.119 --> 00:26:42.799 they always repeated the bullies will back down when stood 381 00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:47.240 up to mantra. That was utter horseshit. It always has 382 00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:50.039 been that only worked when the one standing up to 383 00:26:50.079 --> 00:26:53.279 the bully was stronger than them. The Maestro and I 384 00:26:53.400 --> 00:26:56.119 were not on equal footing, but my short confrontation and 385 00:26:56.160 --> 00:26:59.359 the production trailer taught me something important. I didn't need 386 00:26:59.359 --> 00:27:02.440 to be stronger than him. Donut and I or something better. 387 00:27:02.960 --> 00:27:08.680 We were expensive, and I really do appreciate. Bullies don't 388 00:27:08.720 --> 00:27:11.920 back down when they're stood up to. What happens is 389 00:27:12.000 --> 00:27:15.480 if you are stronger than them, the bully simply realizes 390 00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:18.640 they pick the wrong prey. And they find somebody weaker 391 00:27:18.680 --> 00:27:21.880 and they go after them instead. If you are stronger 392 00:27:21.920 --> 00:27:24.920 and you manage to stand up to them, usually that 393 00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:27.559 results in them being humiliated, and the person that they 394 00:27:28.160 --> 00:27:31.880 after you is going to get even worse treatment than 395 00:27:31.920 --> 00:27:34.000 they would have otherwise, because now the bully has something 396 00:27:34.039 --> 00:27:37.240 additional to prove, and if you stand up to them 397 00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:40.519 when you are not stronger than them, it just results 398 00:27:40.519 --> 00:27:42.680 in you getting even more of a beating than you 399 00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:46.559 were about to get. Either way, they always are about 400 00:27:46.599 --> 00:27:50.799 their ego, their reputation, proving something to the people around them, 401 00:27:51.119 --> 00:27:54.160
