I went to 34 00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:31.519 the went to the Flamingo Island. I don't know if 35 00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:32.879 you know about that in a Ruba it's just. 36 00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:34.200 Like shaped like a. 37 00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:37.719 Flamingo's running around everywhere. It's great. 38 00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:38.079 Nice. 39 00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:39.959 I just lay in a beach chair for like five 40 00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:42.640 hours and flamingos running around and drinking cocktails. It was great. 41 00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:44.400 Yeah. 42 00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:47.640 I was just uh for the Minnesota winters. Obviously, they 43 00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:50.239 get real rough, and typically like February is about the 44 00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:52.760 worst time because it's just like it's been long enough 45 00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:54.319 that you're so fucking ready for it to be over, 46 00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:56.920 but there's still a good amount left and you're in 47 00:01:56.959 --> 00:01:58.920 like the deep freeze part of it. So I think 48 00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:00.760 Bonk and I decided we want to start, like you know, 49 00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:03.599 frequently doing like a Ruba trips, like maybe every year. 50 00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:06.959 In February May Aruba. Why not, like just because you 51 00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:10.479 know a lot of birds fly south for winter, but 52 00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:12.599 you guys are specifically choosing Aruba. 53 00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:16.520 Yeah, we went in twenty twenty two and maybe we were, 54 00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:18.280 so we just want to go someplace warm, you know, 55 00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:20.439 And we found this and heard a lot of people 56 00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:22.159 saying great things about it, and we loved it so 57 00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:24.479 much that we're like, well, we could try different ones. 58 00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:27.439 We could try Dominican Republic or Jamaica or Bermuda or whatever, 59 00:02:27.759 --> 00:02:30.479 but we fucking love Aruba. So I think we're just 60 00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:32.199 going to keep doing that. And this was even better 61 00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:32.840 in the first time. 62 00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:37.159 Yeah, I been into a Ruba twice. It's but as 63 00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:37.719 a child. 64 00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:40.199 Oh, that's probably different than how we spent it. 65 00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:43.800 Yeah, back in the day when my dad worked at 66 00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.479 it doesn't really matter, but I probably probably Procter and Gamble. 67 00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:50.280 This was back in the day when sales guys used 68 00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:52.719 to get crazy kickbacks and the government just looked the 69 00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:54.759 other way. And one of the I feel like I 70 00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:56.560 can tell the story now because he's retired. I don't 71 00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:57.439 think they'll come for him. 72 00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:00.599 I think there's a statute of limitations on stuff like that. 73 00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:04.680 For the record, So he murdered a guy. I think 74 00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:08.120 I think that back then, if you sold enough, they 75 00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.800 would be like, and you win a trip to Aruba 76 00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:15.240 with the family of four, a major award, And so 77 00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:18.400 he won it two years once. I was like probably seven, 78 00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:22.120 so I have like no memories of this trip. But 79 00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:24.599 I went to Arubo with my dad on like a 80 00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:27.639 business trip, and they told me when I was much older, 81 00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:30.400 He's like, just so you know, those were free work trips, 82 00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:35.000 didn't pay a dime. Like that's so sick, but also 83 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:37.360 like kind of crazy that you're allowed to do that 84 00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:39.639 as an old you know, like as a as a 85 00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:41.080 working salary man. 86 00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:44.879 God, I missed the eighties. Those you could do you. 87 00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:47.120 Could wait with all sorts of crazy shit back. 88 00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:51.080 Then, back then, before before the country realized how much 89 00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:54.039 damage it was doing to itself economically. I don't know 90 00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:56.120 enough about the eighties to talk intelligently about it. I 91 00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:59.000 wasn't even alive during the eighties, but I feel like 92 00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:00.360 I want to fit in in the eighties. 93 00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:05.840 Oh yeah, eighties, dude, don't you like you just look 94 00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:07.039 like someone. 95 00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:09.039 Finally someone said it.

It was like uncut gems for like 137 00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:51.879 stressed moms. So but it was basically it's like the 138 00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:54.959 short version is it's like Rosebyrne is a woman. Uh 139 00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:56.560 I forget where they say where she lived or whatever, 140 00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:59.000 but anyway, she's got a daughter that's like got a 141 00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:02.720 horrible eating her stomach situation, has a tube in her stomach, 142 00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:04.839 and her husband's like a cruise ship pilot, so he's 143 00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:06.920 out for like a week. She's going through all these 144 00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:09.720 nightmares at work. This kid is unhealthy. Like it's just 145 00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.720 like it's like Uncut Gems levels of stress and insane 146 00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:14.959 stuff she's dealing with for a week. And I watched 147 00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:17.439 that and it really kind of reframed my complaints of 148 00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:19.560 like it's kind of cold and I don't know if 149 00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:21.680 I'm going to have time to play Mario tennis before 150 00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:24.240 I go to a Ruba. 151 00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:28.240 You don't need to watch a horrible person existence to 152 00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:30.160 know that you are the most privileged boy. 153 00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:34.800 This is a stark reminder of like, okay, this isn't 154 00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:37.199 maybe stress is a relative term. 155 00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:40.959 You know, don't yet I'm so whoed. 156 00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:42.639 Grow up. 157 00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:46.040 It's a it's a miserable film. I did not care 158 00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:49.079 for it, and I think it's I think it's a 159 00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:53.959 masterclass in storytelling. I think it's well done. She's she's 160 00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:56.319 an excellent actress. My complaints are not about the direction, 161 00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:00.920 the story, the acting, all of that phenomenal. My problem 162 00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:03.480 is is I don't want to watch the saddest woman 163 00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:05.920 in existence for two and a half hours slowly, like 164 00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:10.680 want to die.

They kind of just live out. 473 00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:23.119 It's pretty temperate weather all year, so they don't have 474 00:21:23.160 --> 00:21:25.279 to worry about a lot of stress really fending for 475 00:21:25.319 --> 00:21:25.839 their lives. 476 00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:30.319 Yeah.

And 546 00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:57.200 so I always get nervous doing this because I don't 547 00:24:57.200 --> 00:24:59.319 want to ever complain. But I was like, maybe this 548 00:24:59.400 --> 00:25:01.640 is somebody else his drink because it doesn't taste like 549 00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:04.839 rose at all. And so I flagged down the waiter 550 00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:06.559 and I said, hey, I'm so sorry. I just want 551 00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:08.559 to make sure that this is supposed to be my 552 00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:12.680 drink because I ordered the Roselle and it's pretty fruity. 553 00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:15.880 And he said he leaned in he goes, Roselle is 554 00:25:16.000 --> 00:25:21.160 tie for hibiscus, and then he walked away, and I went, oh, 555 00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:24.599 I'm a dumb shit, and I. 556 00:25:24.759 --> 00:25:26.880 Like white white Godzilla strikes again. 557 00:25:27.000 --> 00:25:28.640 Yeah, And I had like my little straw and I 558 00:25:28.680 --> 00:25:32.759 was like, oh, it was very good. But I realized, like, 559 00:25:33.279 --> 00:25:36.279 I don't know anything about this place, and I need 560 00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:40.200 to stop complaining or asking questions. I wasn't trying to complain, 561 00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:42.680 but obviously it came across like I was. 562 00:25:43.079 --> 00:25:44.960 And you're only gonna call it roselle from now on 563 00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:45.960 when you get hibs. 564 00:25:46.680 --> 00:25:49.680 I think the next time somebody has a drink that 565 00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:51.599 has hibiscus in it, I'm going to lean in and 566 00:25:51.640 --> 00:25:55.799 go in tie it's called roselle, and I'm gonna sound 567 00:25:55.880 --> 00:25:56.599 really smart. 568 00:25:56.680 --> 00:25:58.799 And you should complain to the waiter when it's called 569 00:25:58.839 --> 00:26:00.359 hibiscus that it doesn't taste rose. 570 00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:02.599 They're going to turn around and it's gonna be that 571 00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:07.960 same waiter. He's gonna be like, you, stupid, ignorant lady. 572 00:26:08.519 --> 00:26:10.519 I remember that game came out on Switch and everybody 573 00:26:10.559 --> 00:26:12.240 was correct in each one another is like, it's could 574 00:26:12.240 --> 00:26:13.880 pronounce grease. It's Spanish for gray. 575 00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:15.839 I do remember that. 576 00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:18.359 Ye remember that was happening. One specific person did it. 577 00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:20.079 It wasn't actually multiple people. 578 00:26:20.440 --> 00:26:22.640 I remember when I had my trip to Bartholona. 579 00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:29.319 Living in Bartholona, I said my third my third stag 580 00:26:29.400 --> 00:26:35.039 and Ibitha. It was wonderful. Had some had some cores, lattes, 581 00:26:35.200 --> 00:26:41.359 had some VODs. But yeah, no, it's uh. I'm I'm 582 00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:44.720 going back to places I've been. I'm doing Stockholm, Paris, 583 00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:48.920 Key West is for leisure, and then there's one more, 584 00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:49.480 oh l A. 585 00:26:49.759 --> 00:26:51.880 So are they all connected or do you go home? 586 00:26:53.880 --> 00:26:57.079 Key West and Paris are connected, but the other two 587 00:26:57.079 --> 00:27:01.559 are breaks in between. I'm excited for the breaks. Yeah, 588 00:27:01.559 --> 00:27:03.240 I'm looking forward to Stockholm again. I think we have 589 00:27:03.240 --> 00:27:05.440 a few listeners in Stockholm. I liked it a lot. 590 00:27:05.480 --> 00:27:07.480 I went there like almost exactly two years ago and 591 00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:09.759 loved it even this time of year. 592 00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:12.880 It's been a minute. My dad got me a cool gift. 593 00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:18.400 He got me a cork board globe with pins so 594 00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:21.359 that I could put pins in all of the places 595 00:27:21.359 --> 00:27:24.519 that I visited. I thought it was actually quite thoughtful, 596 00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:30.000 and I spent last night putting pins in different different 597 00:27:30.119 --> 00:27:33.319 countries and different cities that I've visited. I'll go downstairs 598 00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:34.640 and get if you guys want to see, because actually 599 00:27:34.640 --> 00:27:35.440 think it's a cool shot. 600 00:27:35.680 --> 00:27:37.319 I think that's really cool. I think I'm going to 601 00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:40.160 buy one because I've always loved globes and maps and everything, 602 00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:42.440 and that's a fun kind of like personalization on that. Yeah. 603 00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:45.160 Yeah, it's very personal to put the pin in. But 604 00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:48.279 I also recognized I was testing myself a little bit 605 00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:51.039 because anytime I was like, oh, yeah, I'd been to Majorca, 606 00:27:51.079 --> 00:27:53.039 I was like, where the fuck is that? I'm like 607 00:27:53.319 --> 00:27:56.039 looking for it because it's an island, it's very small, 608 00:27:56.359 --> 00:27:57.960 and I was like, I don't know where this is. 609 00:27:58.000 --> 00:28:00.279 And I was like embarrassing myself, said like having get 610 00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:03.599 my like Google map out to be like, where are 611 00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:06.000 all these places that I've traveled to? It's I can 612 00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:08.680 put my little pin in them and and be proud 613 00:28:08.720 --> 00:28:08.960 of it. 614 00:28:09.359 --> 00:28:11.799 I like that, I'm gonna buy one tonight. That sounds great. 615 00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:12.640 Oh that's cool. 616 00:28:12.799 --> 00:28:13.000 Yeah. 617 00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:15.200 I thought it was a neat gift, but I will. 618 00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:18.200 I think it is a stark reminder that my geography 619 00:28:18.319 --> 00:28:21.640 is not good. I have put all of my points 620 00:28:21.640 --> 00:28:26.240 and other things I have put them into, uh, you know, 621 00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:30.240 leisurely chats with the friends and bowling and gaming and 622 00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:33.440 all of these others. Being an excellent person on planes 623 00:28:33.440 --> 00:28:35.720 Oh my god, I'm so good on a plane, but 624 00:28:35.799 --> 00:28:41.759 I cannot remember specifically where cities are in a country ever. 625 00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:44.160 And so someone was like, you were in can I'd 626 00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:45.680 be like yes, They'd be like, now where is that, 627 00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:48.200 and I'd be like south, And that's it. That's all 628 00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:49.039 I can tell you. 629 00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:51.759 I wonder if, like, cause, like there are certain things 630 00:28:51.799 --> 00:28:53.599 like with memory and things like that that I'm extremely 631 00:28:53.599 --> 00:28:55.640 good at, like spelling we've talked about for and like 632 00:28:55.720 --> 00:28:58.640 I also like with states and state outlines and even 633 00:28:58.680 --> 00:29:00.480 like you know, remembering capitals and stuff like that. It's 634 00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:01.799 been a while since I thought of that, but like, 635 00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:03.880 you know, I could easily if I could draw a 636 00:29:03.920 --> 00:29:05.880 map of the US and get all the states exactly 637 00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:07.480 right as far as like where they are and everything, 638 00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:08.680 so like that. I don't know if that's just like 639 00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:12.119 a photographic memory thing, because like remembering details of things 640 00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:14.000 or like have me describe the events of a movie 641 00:29:14.039 --> 00:29:15.400 I saw two weeks ago, and I probably won't be 642 00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:18.000 able to remember, but I could draw the map pretty 643 00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:19.680 accurately right now. I think that's a word. 644 00:29:19.880 --> 00:29:23.200 You know, It's a great skill to have, and I'm 645 00:29:23.200 --> 00:29:25.240 a little embarrassed that even when I was doing the 646 00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:28.759 United States. I was like, well, I've been to Detroit, 647 00:29:29.240 --> 00:29:31.880 and I know Michigan it looks like a glove. But 648 00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:34.039 then I was like, where's Detroit? And I like had 649 00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:36.920 to think about it, and like, I it's embarrassing that 650 00:29:36.960 --> 00:29:40.599 I don't remember specifically where Detroit is in Michigan on 651 00:29:40.640 --> 00:29:45.200 a map. I didn't know exactly where Chicago was in Illinois, 652 00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:47.319 you know what I mean? Like I knew which state 653 00:29:47.359 --> 00:29:49.559 it was, but I couldn't remember where in the state 654 00:29:49.640 --> 00:29:51.839 it was. Do you think you could do that without 655 00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:52.640 looking it up. 656 00:29:53.000 --> 00:29:53.880 The city stuff? 657 00:29:54.079 --> 00:29:56.240 Yeah, I think most big ones. I mean definitely all 658 00:29:56.279 --> 00:29:58.599 the state placements, but I think most cities. 659 00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:00.799 Detroit on the the glove. 660 00:30:00.720 --> 00:30:02.960 Detro it's on the west part of the gloved borders 661 00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:05.519 the one of the Great Lakes that Erie or is 662 00:30:05.559 --> 00:30:08.720 that Detrot's like on the lake right, the Great Lake. 663 00:30:08.720 --> 00:30:11.319 When you say left, you mean the Upper Peninsula west? 664 00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:12.319 Oh? 665 00:30:12.319 --> 00:30:13.960 No, yeah, no, on the on the Mitten. It's on 666 00:30:14.000 --> 00:30:14.400 the Mitten. 667 00:30:14.640 --> 00:30:16.480 It's on the Yeah, it's on the main. 668 00:30:16.319 --> 00:30:18.640 It's on the west side of the Mitten right like 669 00:30:18.759 --> 00:30:20.640 kind of lower lower West. 670 00:30:21.079 --> 00:30:22.440 It's on Lake Michigan, isn't it. 671 00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:26.079 That would makes sense. Yeah, am I totally off? 672 00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:29.119 Yeah? I think you're right. It's on or is it 673 00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:31.279 it's it's definitely on the lower peninsula, but I'm trying 674 00:30:31.319 --> 00:30:33.559 to remember if it's west or east west side. 675 00:30:34.960 --> 00:30:37.119 There's like big ones that you know California obviously, like 676 00:30:37.119 --> 00:30:39.559 San Francisco is up there, La is down there, and 677 00:30:39.680 --> 00:30:41.720 you got San Diego further down by the Mexico border. 678 00:30:42.720 --> 00:30:46.319 Do you want to know Detroit it's on the thumb. 679 00:30:47.079 --> 00:30:52.640 Okay, yeah, lower west, Yeah, the tracks right, No, it's 680 00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:56.359 lower east the east this way it's closer to like. 681 00:31:00.240 --> 00:31:02.119 The video listeners are getting a trade right now. 682 00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:07.680 Yeah, it's also not even Oh, it's more on Lake Huron. 683 00:31:08.559 --> 00:31:11.440 I know, I see. And I was like, uh, my 684 00:31:11.519 --> 00:31:14.640 family is from Niagara Falls or the Buffalo area, and 685 00:31:14.640 --> 00:31:18.240 I've been to Niagara Falls more times as a child, 686 00:31:18.359 --> 00:31:20.559 like that was where we went. And I was like, 687 00:31:21.079 --> 00:31:24.039 now where are these? Where is this? And I was like, 688 00:31:24.319 --> 00:31:27.640 that's embarrassing. You should know exactly where Buffalo is. You 689 00:31:27.920 --> 00:31:30.119 fucking grew up there, like what you been there? 690 00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:32.240 That would be like, yeah, Detroit, is it not on 691 00:31:32.319 --> 00:31:36.119 Lake Michigan whatsoever? It's on part of Lake Erie Lake 692 00:31:36.160 --> 00:31:36.960 Saint Clair. 693 00:31:36.720 --> 00:31:39.559 With Chicago on Lake Michigan. Like the actual like placement 694 00:31:39.599 --> 00:31:42.920 of the Great Lakes and whether Heuron Erie, Michigan. 695 00:31:43.480 --> 00:31:48.559 Ontario and Superior, Okay and lakes is so misleading. Have 696 00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:50.680 you guys ever like spent time on them. 697 00:31:50.880 --> 00:31:52.160 Like you see the other side. 698 00:31:52.359 --> 00:31:56.160 Yeah, it's it's what was the I was looking at 699 00:31:56.160 --> 00:31:58.680 a stat it was like, mathematically, if you took every 700 00:31:58.720 --> 00:32:02.480 single person on Earth and put them shoulder to shoulder 701 00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:05.160 in Lake Superior, you still would not fill. 702 00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:08.319 It' that's not like you got to come up with 703 00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:08.960 a new word for that. 704 00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:10.599 Yeah, it's many ocean. 705 00:32:11.400 --> 00:32:13.920 There's ocean, there's sea. I think that's the sea is 706 00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:16.640 basically many ocean, right, and then you got to just 707 00:32:16.680 --> 00:32:20.920 call the Great Lakes the Great seas. Yeah, they're probably 708 00:32:20.960 --> 00:32:22.319 bigger than most seas, right. 709 00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:24.440 That weaves, they're bigger than many seas. Yeah, for sure, 710 00:32:24.480 --> 00:32:27.119 they're huge. They're also it's not the if you're looking 711 00:32:27.119 --> 00:32:29.799 at like most world maps, what determines what. 712 00:32:29.759 --> 00:32:32.319 The lake is? Is it who finds it? 713 00:32:32.480 --> 00:32:33.079 Fresh water? 714 00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:35.960 It's yeah, it's completely enclosed fresh water. 715 00:32:36.359 --> 00:32:38.319 Or seas or saltwater, I assume, right. 716 00:32:39.920 --> 00:32:43.519 Yeah, yeah, see these are the things that I think 717 00:32:43.559 --> 00:32:47.039 of when I look at my cork globe and realize 718 00:32:47.039 --> 00:32:47.559 that I am. 719 00:32:47.680 --> 00:32:50.079 But then you got bays and harbor's like harbor's I know, 720 00:32:50.200 --> 00:32:53.319 is an actual harbor is more an indication of its 721 00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:55.960 economic purpose than it's actually Sure, I. 722 00:32:55.880 --> 00:32:58.920 Got the type thing. Here's a dumb question I've never 723 00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:03.519 thought of before. Okay, seas, lakes, oceans, like all that stuff. 724 00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:07.640 They're all bodies of water. Obviously, oceans much much bigger. 725 00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:10.319 Now are you saying that are seas always salt water? 726 00:33:11.119 --> 00:33:13.319 I believe so, but I could be very wrong. Okay, 727 00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:15.559 so a sea is like a big ass lake. So 728 00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:19.480 what is the thing initially when it was formed that 729 00:33:19.519 --> 00:33:22.200 makes one of them continue to be salt water and 730 00:33:22.279 --> 00:33:25.119 other ones continue to not? Like why does Lake Michigan 731 00:33:25.200 --> 00:33:27.200 have fresh water in it? And like what's the famous 732 00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:30.279 like the Red Sea has salt and it just stays 733 00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:31.720 that way? Or how is it because the way. 734 00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:34.799 They were seas? So I think crucially, seas are always 735 00:33:34.799 --> 00:33:36.599 connected to the ocean. That's where the salt comes from. 736 00:33:36.720 --> 00:33:39.279 They are connected, yes, Oh, like if you look at 737 00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:41.720 the Sea of Japan, it's technically part of the Pacific 738 00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:43.839 Ocean that like, or if you look at this the 739 00:33:43.880 --> 00:33:49.640 red sea like lakes. Also, like if the finger Lakes specifically, 740 00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:51.039 I know we're not talking about the Finger Lake. We're 741 00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:52.920 talking about the gret Lakes. But finger lakes are glacial 742 00:33:53.480 --> 00:33:57.839 cavities which I believe like happened during massive floods like 743 00:33:57.880 --> 00:34:02.519 the Missourian flood, Missoula floodback millions of years ago, that 744 00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:05.279 like basically created all the lakes in Minneapolis and the 745 00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:08.880 north the Midwestern United States, and like a lot of 746 00:34:08.880 --> 00:34:11.519 the freshwater came from those. But I believe seas are 747 00:34:11.559 --> 00:34:13.719 always connected to the ocean, hence the salt. 748 00:34:14.039 --> 00:34:16.960 Then why isn't okay, the Mississippi River is connected to 749 00:34:17.039 --> 00:34:18.519 the ocean. Why is that not salt? 750 00:34:19.400 --> 00:34:21.880 It flows into the ocean, doesn't come from the ocean. 751 00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:27.519 So okay, going out Missisipi River? Where's that up coming from? Which? 752 00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:29.440 Which great lake is it? Isn't it starting? 753 00:34:29.480 --> 00:34:31.360 A great lake started? I'm looking at it goes way 754 00:34:31.440 --> 00:34:35.800 up thirty five here? Uh is this it? 755 00:34:35.840 --> 00:34:36.719 Do you want me to get my. 756 00:34:36.719 --> 00:34:40.960 Globe Google maps? Where the fuck does it goes all 757 00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:42.440 the way up to Minneapolis? And then where the fuck 758 00:34:42.480 --> 00:34:46.159 does it go Mississippi River? Okay, it's keep going up, 759 00:34:46.239 --> 00:34:49.079 is going all the way to Canada. The big fucking river. 760 00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:52.920 I mean, it's most of that gets its water, Dan, 761 00:34:53.039 --> 00:34:55.400 Get this. It gets its water from its headwaters at 762 00:34:55.440 --> 00:34:59.920 Lake at Tasca in Minnesota, fed by springs, lakes and rainfall, 763 00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:03.800 and then collects water in your water dam So down. 764 00:35:03.599 --> 00:35:05.679 In Kansas City, when I were down by Saint Louis 765 00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:08.880 where the Mississippi River goes through, that's Minnesota lake water. 766 00:35:08.920 --> 00:35:09.400 I'm looking at. 767 00:35:10.159 --> 00:35:13.199 Uh in large part you have, but also rainfall and springs, 768 00:35:13.199 --> 00:35:14.519 like underground springs, et cetera. 769 00:35:14.599 --> 00:35:17.400 At Sweet Sweet Minnesota. 770 00:35:16.840 --> 00:35:18.199 Blue you're just swimming up. 771 00:35:19.639 --> 00:35:21.880 There are so many things that just happen every day 772 00:35:21.880 --> 00:35:23.840 that you just never think about, and then you hear 773 00:35:23.960 --> 00:35:25.679 what they come from, and that's interesting. 774 00:35:25.679 --> 00:35:28.880 I like not to bring it back to wine again, 775 00:35:28.920 --> 00:35:31.079 but honestly, studying wine, I'm looking at maps most of 776 00:35:31.079 --> 00:35:33.360 the time. I'm reading about shit like how certain like 777 00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:39.559 countries formed from some like some tectonic collision that happened 778 00:35:39.599 --> 00:35:41.360 millions of years ago, and that like all of a sudden, 779 00:35:41.400 --> 00:35:43.400 the Jurassic Period starts to make more sense because it 780 00:35:43.440 --> 00:35:46.960 deposited certain soil types and like half of the my 781 00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:50.320 wine studying is maps and like of different sorts like 782 00:35:50.360 --> 00:35:53.519 soil maps or rainfall patterns. 783 00:35:53.719 --> 00:35:55.840 This shit is crazy. I'm looking at Lake of Tasca 784 00:35:55.880 --> 00:35:58.320 now and it is not a large lake, not even 785 00:35:58.360 --> 00:36:01.360 by like Minnesota standards. Really, how is this tiny ass 786 00:36:01.400 --> 00:36:04.719 little lake filling up a river that goes across the entire. 787 00:36:04.559 --> 00:36:07.800 Country gathering as it goes, ma'am? 788 00:36:08.039 --> 00:36:09.280 So it's not all starting. 789 00:36:09.280 --> 00:36:14.639 There's tributary is tributary streams? Oh okay, okay, like the 790 00:36:14.639 --> 00:36:17.320 headwaters is not all the water that just pours through 791 00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:19.400 like you're pouring it from a bottle. There's tributaries from 792 00:36:19.440 --> 00:36:22.880 other sources and springs and other connecting rivers and lakes. 793 00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:24.599 Tributary I'm into that. 794 00:36:24.920 --> 00:36:37.079 Yeahs a Rivet inlets, maybe. 795 00:36:31.320 --> 00:36:40.480 The tiny bay like tiny lagoon and inland you know, yeah, 796 00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:45.360 Rivet City and three right, yeah, held together metal. 797 00:36:46.559 --> 00:36:49.800 There's like an always sunny thing where he like points 798 00:36:49.800 --> 00:36:51.760 at the door and he's like, listen, we gotta watch 799 00:36:51.760 --> 00:36:53.800 out for that pirates. 800 00:36:56.039 --> 00:36:57.039 A pirate? Private? 801 00:36:58.480 --> 00:37:01.400 Is it? Is it the door that's says private? Is 802 00:37:01.400 --> 00:37:02.920 that the door you're thinking of? 803 00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:04.840 And then he tries to get in with his own apartment. 804 00:37:04.920 --> 00:37:07.199 Ke He's like I figured there was a shot. It's 805 00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:08.480 like a one in one hundred million. 806 00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:12.440 A lot of things are just really interesting once you 807 00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:16.199 learn how they happen. Yeah, man, I knew. 808 00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:19.280 Yeah, but look while you're doing it, can you look up, 809 00:37:19.320 --> 00:37:20.760 like what constitutes the sea? 810 00:37:21.559 --> 00:37:26.159 Yeah? I believe they're all type of what constitutes a sea? Okay? 811 00:37:26.239 --> 00:37:28.480 Well the google a eye that pops up first is 812 00:37:28.639 --> 00:37:31.480 a large body of saltwater, typically smaller and shallower than 813 00:37:31.480 --> 00:37:34.760 an ocean, partially enclosed by land, and usually located with 814 00:37:34.880 --> 00:37:38.719 where the ocean meets land. While connected to the global ocean, 815 00:37:38.719 --> 00:37:41.199 they are often on the margins of continents, though some, 816 00:37:41.360 --> 00:37:46.239 like the Sargasso Sea, are defined by ocean currents. Partial enclosure, 817 00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:51.400 enclosure Yeah, okkay, brilliant. Yeah, what's your favorite sea? I 818 00:37:51.400 --> 00:37:51.840 don't have. 819 00:37:52.039 --> 00:37:55.000 Also, there are way more than seven. The pirate things 820 00:37:55.000 --> 00:37:55.559 were bullshit. 821 00:37:55.639 --> 00:37:56.679 No, pirates were dumbasses. 822 00:37:56.760 --> 00:37:59.159 Yeah, well, who's the travel of the world and the 823 00:37:59.199 --> 00:38:01.639 seven seas? Well, you got like three hundred to go, Man, 824 00:38:04.119 --> 00:38:07.400 write another song when you get that any Lenox. Yeah, Annie, 825 00:38:08.440 --> 00:38:11.480 i've ever seen a sea's I've never seen I didn't 826 00:38:11.480 --> 00:38:13.039 see an ocean until I was like working a game 827 00:38:13.079 --> 00:38:15.639 informer you must have seen us. 828 00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:20.199 I agree. Growing up in the golf mostly in Ohio, 829 00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:21.800 I feel like I just didn't get to see a 830 00:38:21.800 --> 00:38:23.800 lot of ocean. Wasn't something I saw? 831 00:38:23.920 --> 00:38:26.800 Yeah, Kansas certainly not. We don't want to go on 832 00:38:26.840 --> 00:38:29.320 family vacations or anything ever, so like I never saw shit. 833 00:38:29.719 --> 00:38:31.679 I guess New Orleans is sort of connected to the 834 00:38:31.719 --> 00:38:32.400 golf through the. 835 00:38:32.360 --> 00:38:35.519 Swamps New Orleans. I've definitely seen the golf. Yeah, yeah, 836 00:38:35.519 --> 00:38:36.360 that is connected. 837 00:38:37.199 --> 00:38:39.000 But uh see, I'm trying to think if I've seen this, 838 00:38:39.199 --> 00:38:42.639 I've seen the Sea of Japan. Actually, no, I would 839 00:38:42.679 --> 00:38:46.440 have seen I would have been on the harbor harbor, right, yeah, 840 00:38:46.519 --> 00:38:48.559 which is technically those are usually fresh water, Like New 841 00:38:48.639 --> 00:38:51.840 York Harbor is still fresh water until a certain point 842 00:38:52.000 --> 00:38:54.840 because the pressure from the east and the HUD center 843 00:38:54.960 --> 00:38:56.400 pushing down against the saltwater. 844 00:38:57.039 --> 00:39:00.159 Oh right, New Orleans is technically Lake Pontar Train that 845 00:39:00.199 --> 00:39:02.679 it borders, which is Mike, you'll know from Double seven 846 00:39:02.719 --> 00:39:06.360 everything or nothing, the motorcycle level that's the big across. Yeah, yeah, 847 00:39:06.360 --> 00:39:09.360 I know that. Yeah, but that does connect to the Gulf. 848 00:39:10.679 --> 00:39:10.800 Right. 849 00:39:11.679 --> 00:39:16.480 While on that notehography, do you want to talk about 850 00:39:16.519 --> 00:39:22.719 video games? Sure? Oh, God, you fucking so gross. 851 00:39:22.840 --> 00:39:23.639 That's the endpoint. 852 00:39:24.119 --> 00:39:28.039 I can't okay in on Mary's burp, speaking of we've 853 00:39:28.039 --> 00:39:32.159 all been playing Eugenics, Oh boy about it. Finally, Dan's 854 00:39:32.159 --> 00:39:34.440 played the most. Mary played quite a bit as well. 855 00:39:34.519 --> 00:39:38.280 I played the least. But uh, nonetheless, because you were talking, 856 00:39:38.519 --> 00:39:40.920 you sent us you had a screenshot on Instagram last night. 857 00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:42.239 I could just tell you were farther. 858 00:39:42.840 --> 00:39:46.760 Oh from my I've been trying to take screenshots when 859 00:39:46.800 --> 00:39:49.960 the game makes me laugh out loud. It's happened. It's 860 00:39:49.960 --> 00:39:50.719 happened a lot. 861 00:39:51.480 --> 00:39:53.679 The dumb cat thing that the dumber the cat is, 862 00:39:53.719 --> 00:39:55.079 the further he goes, Yeah. 863 00:39:54.960 --> 00:39:57.320 It's called one d Chess. How funny is that? Like, 864 00:39:57.320 --> 00:40:02.000 there's a lot of funny connections in this game where 865 00:40:02.000 --> 00:40:05.840 you can tell that they had fun making this. They 866 00:40:05.920 --> 00:40:09.679 wanted you to laugh. I had I have wigs with 867 00:40:09.880 --> 00:40:11.960 lice in them, and the lice comes out of the 868 00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:13.159 wigs and attack. 869 00:40:14.280 --> 00:40:16.760 But before before I should lay a foundation, because this 870 00:40:17.079 --> 00:40:19.559 sounds like we should lay the foundation of what it is. 871 00:40:21.559 --> 00:40:24.840 Yeah, on a surface, if you removed everything from the 872 00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:27.880 visuals and aesthetics and everything, it's just the most Mike 873 00:40:27.960 --> 00:40:30.280 Maharty ass game. Ever as far as like it is 874 00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:31.679 tiles and tactic. 875 00:40:31.480 --> 00:40:35.880 Scene, it's disgusting, it's absurd. I can't look away. It's 876 00:40:36.000 --> 00:40:37.239 Mike Maharty. 877 00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:39.320 I was thinking just the tactical stuff, but then there's 878 00:40:39.320 --> 00:40:41.960 all the Gros stuff on top. I that was the 879 00:40:42.000 --> 00:40:44.239 thing I had to get past. Is like I did 880 00:40:44.280 --> 00:40:47.679 not love the I don't love the humor, I don't 881 00:40:47.760 --> 00:40:50.800 love the tone. I don't love the art style necessarily, 882 00:40:50.840 --> 00:40:53.079 you know, it's like all this stuff that like like 883 00:40:53.119 --> 00:40:54.880 for instance, Binding Isaac, Like you know, I played that 884 00:40:54.920 --> 00:40:56.199 a couple times when it first came out. It was 885 00:40:56.239 --> 00:40:57.920 like I just don't really like the whole vibe of 886 00:40:57.960 --> 00:41:01.119 this game, you know, And this felt the same way. 887 00:41:01.519 --> 00:41:03.639 And then I started playing it and then I was like, 888 00:41:03.760 --> 00:41:07.760 oh fuck, I'm obsessed with this game. And it absolutely 889 00:41:07.800 --> 00:41:10.000 allowed me to see passed and like almost I almost 890 00:41:10.079 --> 00:41:12.199 it's like it's like a Stockholm Center everything, but like 891 00:41:12.239 --> 00:41:14.880 I find myself like, no, no, I'm fine with everything now. 892 00:41:14.960 --> 00:41:17.400 Like it's not like I'm like cracking up every time 893 00:41:17.400 --> 00:41:19.559 I see a cat anus or something, but like you know, 894 00:41:19.639 --> 00:41:21.079 it's I don't. 895 00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:22.840 But you didn't love it either, did you? Like you 896 00:41:22.920 --> 00:41:23.400 weren't like. 897 00:41:23.920 --> 00:41:26.280 It's inherently a gross game. Like there's a boss fight 898 00:41:26.320 --> 00:41:30.000 against like two basically like anuses on four legs that like. 899 00:41:30.360 --> 00:41:34.559 Really really really really we should mention this is a 900 00:41:34.599 --> 00:41:36.760 turn based tactical game for those who don't know, because 901 00:41:36.800 --> 00:41:40.840 not everybody knows. From Edmond McMillan and the team that 902 00:41:40.880 --> 00:41:43.320 made Super Meat Boy and you mentioned by Nick of Isaac, 903 00:41:43.360 --> 00:41:47.480 they working on this for like twelve years. Longer than that, 904 00:41:48.079 --> 00:41:51.599 there's twelve or so they started talking about, but they 905 00:41:51.639 --> 00:41:54.159 like scrapped a few things. So now it's as Dan 906 00:41:54.400 --> 00:41:56.519 pinged us in our discord a couple of weeks ago, 907 00:41:56.559 --> 00:41:58.880 a few weeks ago, at this point we were just 908 00:41:58.920 --> 00:42:01.039 talking about wanting to talk about it. You know, it's 909 00:42:01.079 --> 00:42:05.039 like turn based tactics on tiles with cat breeding in 910 00:42:05.079 --> 00:42:05.840 between as well. 911 00:42:06.440 --> 00:42:09.119 Yeah, Like the like equivalent of going back to the 912 00:42:09.159 --> 00:42:10.960 Hub and Hades is like you go back to this 913 00:42:11.039 --> 00:42:14.079 house where you are, Like the metagame is building out 914 00:42:14.119 --> 00:42:16.639 the rooms of the house, buying furniture for the house. 915 00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:18.719 That can affect different stats of like the quality of 916 00:42:18.719 --> 00:42:20.800 the stray cats that show up, you know, the frequency 917 00:42:20.800 --> 00:42:22.599 of the breeding, the quality of the newborn kittens and 918 00:42:22.599 --> 00:42:24.679 stuff like that. So like you're buying fish tanks and 919 00:42:24.719 --> 00:42:27.719 couches and beds and clocks and stuff to fill this out. 920 00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:29.519 And as you go later in the game, like I 921 00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:31.239 wonder if you guys have gotten this far, because like 922 00:42:31.320 --> 00:42:33.840 this is I'm fifty hours in. It says I'm like 923 00:42:33.880 --> 00:42:35.239 twenty percent of the way into the game. 924 00:42:35.639 --> 00:42:36.599 I can't believe that. 925 00:42:36.920 --> 00:42:40.000 And I'm just now getting this stuff like upgrades where 926 00:42:40.039 --> 00:42:42.880 it's like, okay, now you can see the entire family 927 00:42:42.960 --> 00:42:46.360 trees of every cat, meaning and with an icon even 928 00:42:46.360 --> 00:42:48.440 that says if they're inbred or not. So then you 929 00:42:48.480 --> 00:42:50.760 can start doing stuff like you can start literally just 930 00:42:50.800 --> 00:42:53.159 throw the inbred ones and the trash and donate them 931 00:42:53.199 --> 00:42:57.440 to these like vendors, or you can like take like yeah, 932 00:42:57.519 --> 00:43:00.360 it's like specifically, here's these two cats that are not 933 00:43:00.679 --> 00:43:03.360 in bread and this one has this possibility, this one 934 00:43:03.400 --> 00:43:04.960 has this stat or whatever, and you can you can 935 00:43:04.960 --> 00:43:06.880 put them in like the fuck room, the one that 936 00:43:06.920 --> 00:43:08.360 like you got out you put all the furniture in 937 00:43:08.400 --> 00:43:10.519 that like increases the like fucking and like so you 938 00:43:10.559 --> 00:43:12.840 can get way more deliberate with how you're kind of 939 00:43:12.840 --> 00:43:14.199 breeding the cats. So like I'm going to make the 940 00:43:14.280 --> 00:43:17.360 ultimate ranger here or cleric or something like that. There's 941 00:43:17.360 --> 00:43:19.599 different classes based on collars you put on them and stuff. 942 00:43:19.719 --> 00:43:21.960 But like it seems like I still feel like it's 943 00:43:22.000 --> 00:43:23.760 opening up for me fifty hours in. 944 00:43:24.039 --> 00:43:26.559 You know, it's crazy, Barry, you pointed out, I think 945 00:43:26.599 --> 00:43:28.519 like some reviewers were saying they played one hundred and 946 00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:31.599 twenty for the review or something like that. Yeah, just crazy. 947 00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:35.320 I think it's like long teen and yeah, I think 948 00:43:35.320 --> 00:43:38.920 I'm about twenty five now. I I have enjoyed it. 949 00:43:39.480 --> 00:43:41.320 I feel the same way as you, Dan. I had 950 00:43:41.320 --> 00:43:45.000 to get over the visuals. I don't care for the 951 00:43:45.159 --> 00:43:49.400 like sex and birth in two seconds animation. 952 00:43:49.920 --> 00:43:51.119 Have you changed those? 953 00:43:51.159 --> 00:43:51.719 Have you seen that? 954 00:43:52.440 --> 00:43:52.719 No? 955 00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:55.000 I have changed them to like family friendly, so they're 956 00:43:55.000 --> 00:43:57.039 both just like upside down and like rubbing their backs 957 00:43:57.039 --> 00:43:59.039 against each other like we're kind of funny. 958 00:43:59.159 --> 00:43:59.280 Uh. 959 00:44:00.039 --> 00:44:01.920 I want to see it as it's intended. I want 960 00:44:01.960 --> 00:44:04.320 to see the vision just because I don't love it. 961 00:44:05.039 --> 00:44:08.159 That's what they made, and I think it's also it 962 00:44:08.199 --> 00:44:10.679 was hard for me to get over how disposable the 963 00:44:10.719 --> 00:44:13.800 cats are. So something that I was I learned quite 964 00:44:13.800 --> 00:44:16.440 early on in this game is that once you complete around, 965 00:44:16.559 --> 00:44:21.400 even if you're successful, the cats are retired and never 966 00:44:21.519 --> 00:44:25.800 go out again, and so you need to keep them 967 00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:30.119 in the house and have them do it or dispose 968 00:44:30.199 --> 00:44:33.760 of them as you said, But they don't go out 969 00:44:33.840 --> 00:44:34.920 on a second adventure. 970 00:44:35.320 --> 00:44:39.039 Well it's another thing. There is another thing that I like, 971 00:44:39.159 --> 00:44:40.840 I don't know how much this stuff falls into spoiler 972 00:44:40.880 --> 00:44:42.880 Like this is like gameplay stuff, but obviously stuff that 973 00:44:43.000 --> 00:44:44.480 like unfolds later. 974 00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:47.719 So yeah, we're worried about that. I don't like to 975 00:44:47.760 --> 00:44:48.079 hear it. 976 00:44:48.239 --> 00:44:51.280 Like in general, it's not as simple as once they 977 00:44:51.320 --> 00:44:52.840 go on a thing. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's like 978 00:44:53.440 --> 00:44:53.880 and it's. 979 00:44:53.760 --> 00:44:56.000 For twenty five hours, which I would say is a 980 00:44:56.000 --> 00:44:58.440 long fucking time to play a game before you say, 981 00:44:58.800 --> 00:45:01.119 actually you don't know this game. And if I could 982 00:45:01.159 --> 00:45:03.760 just be a hater for two seconds, I don't really 983 00:45:03.760 --> 00:45:06.920 care for any game that takes fifty hours to open up. 984 00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:09.559 I don't think that that like is super fair for 985 00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:13.199 my time. And it's quite repetitive as well, for a 986 00:45:13.239 --> 00:45:17.760 game where you're like, you're gonna do the sewers, No, 987 00:45:18.000 --> 00:45:22.920 you do the first alley, then the sewers, then the caves, 988 00:45:23.199 --> 00:45:25.559 and so when they come back from this journey, I 989 00:45:25.599 --> 00:45:27.239 have to get a new round of cats and go 990 00:45:27.440 --> 00:45:31.119 back to the alley and start that process over again. 991 00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:33.000 And I had to do that a lot because if 992 00:45:33.000 --> 00:45:36.119 you die, you have to do it all over again. Yeah, 993 00:45:36.199 --> 00:45:40.760 I mean, I think generally my thought is I don't 994 00:45:40.800 --> 00:45:44.119 think this game is for me, but I don't hate 995 00:45:44.119 --> 00:45:46.519 this game. I have enjoyed it. It has made me laugh, 996 00:45:46.559 --> 00:45:49.119 it has made me I've enjoyed it. I've also found 997 00:45:49.159 --> 00:45:52.159 myself playing it and then been like, WHOA, that was 998 00:45:52.239 --> 00:45:52.960 five hours. 999 00:45:53.199 --> 00:45:53.440 Yeah. 1000 00:45:53.519 --> 00:45:55.599 I just sunk five hours into this game. 1001 00:45:55.440 --> 00:45:58.639 Played it on the planes to and fro like flew By. 1002 00:45:58.760 --> 00:46:00.800 It's like that this is actually an end like treadmill 1003 00:46:00.840 --> 00:46:03.559 game too, because it's like it doesn't require any fast 1004 00:46:03.599 --> 00:46:05.400 reflexes or anything like that, so that it's. 1005 00:46:05.280 --> 00:46:06.360 Been amazing turn Base. 1006 00:46:06.639 --> 00:46:08.920 Yeah, I do want to argue something you said, Mary, 1007 00:46:08.920 --> 00:46:11.519 because like I feel the exact same way about like 1008 00:46:11.679 --> 00:46:14.039 I hate the like, oh, you just got to play 1009 00:46:14.039 --> 00:46:16.280 it for this Assassin's Creed for twenty hours and then 1010 00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:18.880 it gets good, Like I've always hated that shit. It's like, 1011 00:46:18.920 --> 00:46:20.760 I want to enjoy a game. You know. If I'm 1012 00:46:20.800 --> 00:46:22.400 going to put hours and hours in something, I better 1013 00:46:22.440 --> 00:46:24.440 be enjoying some part of it. So like, even though 1014 00:46:24.480 --> 00:46:26.480 I do say there are elements that open up in 1015 00:46:26.559 --> 00:46:30.239 things twenty thirty forty hours in, I did enjoy this 1016 00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:32.719 game from the beginning. So it's like I don't want 1017 00:46:32.760 --> 00:46:34.119 people to think like, oh, you got to play it 1018 00:46:34.199 --> 00:46:36.880 twenty hours before it gets good. No, it's good right away. 1019 00:46:37.440 --> 00:46:39.760 And what I'm saying is there are these huge kind 1020 00:46:39.800 --> 00:46:43.280 of signpost moments where it's like, oh, I didn't realize that. 1021 00:46:43.320 --> 00:46:45.440 It's just the unfolding of the unfeeling of the onion, 1022 00:46:45.519 --> 00:46:47.639 you know, it's like it's just additive. I think. I 1023 00:46:47.639 --> 00:46:50.000 think it is fun from the beginning and it just 1024 00:46:50.159 --> 00:46:51.960 keeps giving you more and more. And I think that 1025 00:46:52.079 --> 00:46:54.239 just like adds to the longevity of the game more 1026 00:46:54.280 --> 00:46:55.800 than it's like you got to play a bunch before 1027 00:46:55.800 --> 00:46:56.159 it's good. 1028 00:46:56.639 --> 00:46:59.719 I will acknowledge I I did enjoy the hours that 1029 00:46:59.719 --> 00:47:03.159 I've with this game. It hasn't been a twenty miserable hour. 1030 00:47:03.599 --> 00:47:05.559 I just think that generally I am looking for a 1031 00:47:05.599 --> 00:47:08.719 little bit more impact with my twenty hours. I would 1032 00:47:08.760 --> 00:47:10.760 have liked to accomplish more. I would have liked to 1033 00:47:10.840 --> 00:47:12.599 see more. I would have liked to build my house 1034 00:47:12.639 --> 00:47:16.840 after twenty hours. That being said, I have enjoyed the 1035 00:47:16.880 --> 00:47:19.480 battles that I have come across. I've enjoyed building up 1036 00:47:19.480 --> 00:47:24.880 my cats and giving them crazy outfits, outrageous items that 1037 00:47:24.920 --> 00:47:28.599 are also again funny, cheeky, silly, stupid as hell, and 1038 00:47:28.760 --> 00:47:32.360 changed the gameplay dramatically. Every round has been very different, 1039 00:47:32.760 --> 00:47:35.880 Every battle has been different because my cats are so unique, 1040 00:47:36.039 --> 00:47:38.599 so it mixes it up a lot. So I don't 1041 00:47:38.639 --> 00:47:41.599 dislike this game. I just have like a couple qualms 1042 00:47:41.639 --> 00:47:44.480 with it because I'm already not a huge turn based 1043 00:47:45.000 --> 00:47:47.400 game person, so this is something where I had to 1044 00:47:47.480 --> 00:47:48.960 do a lot of adjusting for it. 1045 00:47:49.039 --> 00:47:53.079 Sure, yeah good, I was gonna say yeah, like fifteen 1046 00:47:53.119 --> 00:47:55.800 minutes in. I'm very much in that holding pattern no 1047 00:47:55.880 --> 00:47:57.960 pun intended. Before I am going to be on a 1048 00:47:57.960 --> 00:47:59.519 bunch of flights that I'm kind of like, Okay, I 1049 00:47:59.559 --> 00:48:01.679 could see this being great on my flights. I'm gonna 1050 00:48:01.679 --> 00:48:03.400 wait until I'm traveling and then I want to really 1051 00:48:03.400 --> 00:48:06.719 dive in. I think my last save time I saw 1052 00:48:06.880 --> 00:48:08.880 was like twelve thirteen hours something like that. So I 1053 00:48:08.920 --> 00:48:11.119 really have not played much of this game. In the 1054 00:48:11.119 --> 00:48:15.000 grand scheme of things, I will say it's reminding me 1055 00:48:15.039 --> 00:48:17.199 more of like Call to the Lamb, the cadence of 1056 00:48:17.239 --> 00:48:18.679 that game where you come back and you do a 1057 00:48:18.719 --> 00:48:21.199 lot of management stuff and not breeding. Really that's more 1058 00:48:21.239 --> 00:48:23.360 about like religious stuff when you come back to base 1059 00:48:23.840 --> 00:48:27.119 and then going out on those dungeon runs. The dungeon runs, 1060 00:48:27.320 --> 00:48:29.360 and obviously we all know I love turn based stuff. 1061 00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:31.440 I'm not expecting this game to be like full on 1062 00:48:31.480 --> 00:48:35.199 Into the Breach or x COOM. I will say, so far, 1063 00:48:35.440 --> 00:48:39.599 the turn based stuff has not been like all that 1064 00:48:40.199 --> 00:48:44.480 complex yet. But from what Dan You've told me, like 1065 00:48:44.599 --> 00:48:46.880 certain stuff, I think I want to get to the 1066 00:48:46.880 --> 00:48:49.559 point where I feel like most of the complexities are 1067 00:48:49.559 --> 00:48:53.079 going to come from the interplay between the breeding and 1068 00:48:53.239 --> 00:48:56.440 the combat, because right now the combat itself is very 1069 00:48:56.440 --> 00:48:59.519 boring to me. That doesn't mean I won't like that. 1070 00:48:59.599 --> 00:49:01.400 One of my favorite games the last ten years is 1071 00:49:01.440 --> 00:49:05.599 Wildermuth and the combat and Wildermth is not that it's 1072 00:49:05.639 --> 00:49:07.280 it's nothing to write home about if you're a turn 1073 00:49:07.280 --> 00:49:10.920 based tactics fan. However, seeing these characters who like these 1074 00:49:10.960 --> 00:49:13.920 cats come back and they can't go out, they retire, 1075 00:49:13.960 --> 00:49:16.400 but they pass on traits to the next generation, It's like, 1076 00:49:17.119 --> 00:49:19.599 I'm pretty positive I'll love that once I start seeing 1077 00:49:19.599 --> 00:49:22.760 it more, and also I've gotten past like the when 1078 00:49:22.800 --> 00:49:25.800 you dispose of the cats and the like the mark 1079 00:49:26.039 --> 00:49:28.719 to send them, just to send them down to the 1080 00:49:28.559 --> 00:49:31.480 all the people living underground who want cats. I keep 1081 00:49:31.480 --> 00:49:33.280 telling myself it's like, it's just like the dump it 1082 00:49:33.360 --> 00:49:37.440 to Crumpet slide that goes up Mount Crumpet in the Grinch. 1083 00:49:37.519 --> 00:49:42.519 The cats are not dying, they're going up there. And 1084 00:49:42.559 --> 00:49:43.400 then also like. 1085 00:49:43.440 --> 00:49:46.760 The ones that they get them, He's a real gem. 1086 00:49:47.400 --> 00:49:50.320 In fights, and just one died overnight and like god. 1087 00:49:50.079 --> 00:49:53.199 Damn it, dumping the car thing. 1088 00:49:53.320 --> 00:49:59.320 Yeah, yeah, I wish it was like frogs or something. 1089 00:49:59.719 --> 00:50:01.679 I think we passed it earlier. 1090 00:50:01.480 --> 00:50:05.559 On so weirds, you know. 1091 00:50:05.960 --> 00:50:09.480 Yeah, it's literally just the fact that I know their cats. Yeah, 1092 00:50:09.480 --> 00:50:11.599 they look like butts or like fury. They look like 1093 00:50:11.679 --> 00:50:17.199 bushes with like like pelvic bushes with cat legs coming 1094 00:50:17.239 --> 00:50:17.800 out of them. 1095 00:50:17.960 --> 00:50:21.559 Yeah, it's strange. You can disassociate pretty easily that I 1096 00:50:21.639 --> 00:50:26.159 have meant to be like disposable little trowels. But yeah, 1097 00:50:26.159 --> 00:50:28.719 it is. It's a gross game. In general, you fight 1098 00:50:28.760 --> 00:50:31.639 poop a lot, Like you were saying, they have enemies 1099 00:50:31.679 --> 00:50:34.360 that are that have anuses for faces that are like 1100 00:50:34.559 --> 00:50:38.480 squirting discharge when you hit them. It's fucking gross. And 1101 00:50:38.559 --> 00:50:40.519 so like there's been a couple of times where I've 1102 00:50:40.519 --> 00:50:43.599 had to be like, oh, like I don't know like 1103 00:50:43.679 --> 00:50:47.519 about that. You know what, you constantly in your path 1104 00:50:47.559 --> 00:50:50.079 because you have pathways where you fight, maybe you come 1105 00:50:50.119 --> 00:50:52.679 across an object or an item, and so you accruise 1106 00:50:52.760 --> 00:50:55.480 something and sometimes it's a choice. And I've had choice 1107 00:50:55.480 --> 00:50:59.000 ones where it's like there's a gross pile of bones. 1108 00:50:59.079 --> 00:51:01.920 Do you fight it, do you eat it? Or do 1109 00:51:02.000 --> 00:51:05.000 you walk away? And I had like a high constitution, 1110 00:51:05.199 --> 00:51:07.480 so I ate it and it was good, but I 1111 00:51:07.559 --> 00:51:11.199 was eating bones of another cat. It was like, you know, 1112 00:51:11.360 --> 00:51:13.679 it's just kind of yuck. I had one of those 1113 00:51:14.119 --> 00:51:17.480 Dan it was a hole and it just said, uh, 1114 00:51:18.239 --> 00:51:22.039 this hole was meant for you. This hole is perfectly 1115 00:51:22.119 --> 00:51:25.840 shaped like you do you enter the hole? Which is 1116 00:51:25.880 --> 00:51:28.840 like a comic reference is the manga? 1117 00:51:29.280 --> 00:51:29.559 It is? 1118 00:51:29.639 --> 00:51:29.840 Right? 1119 00:51:30.119 --> 00:51:32.920 Yeah, what what was the I should know this? The 1120 00:51:33.760 --> 00:51:37.920 writer's famous, the mong artist. But like, yeah, yeah, people 1121 00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:40.719 wake up one day and there's just holes in walls 1122 00:51:40.760 --> 00:51:43.880 and stuff shaped perfectly like each of them. 1123 00:51:44.159 --> 00:51:45.960 Yeah, It's so it's like it's like one of those 1124 00:51:46.000 --> 00:51:50.440 little uh ging eto I don't know, I couldn't remember it. 1125 00:51:50.519 --> 00:51:55.639 Uh they make references to all these like pup culture things. Anyway, 1126 00:51:56.159 --> 00:51:59.440 I went into the hole and I fucking died. It 1127 00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:02.599 killed me. It took my cat away and I never 1128 00:52:02.639 --> 00:52:05.760 got it back. And then and then, like I want 1129 00:52:05.760 --> 00:52:08.760 to say, three areas later, I found an alley cat 1130 00:52:08.800 --> 00:52:09.800 and it joined my squad. 1131 00:52:10.320 --> 00:52:12.679 Yeah, with like low stats, you kind of build it out. 1132 00:52:13.039 --> 00:52:15.639 It was a real piece of shit cat. And I 1133 00:52:16.920 --> 00:52:20.800 like had my cats do it. And I got a 1134 00:52:20.840 --> 00:52:24.519 cat this big. I got a like a dwarf cat. 1135 00:52:24.760 --> 00:52:28.039 It was like a tiny little thimble of a cat, 1136 00:52:28.320 --> 00:52:31.119 and its stats were one across the board. And then 1137 00:52:31.159 --> 00:52:34.679 it had seventeen luck and it was just this complete, 1138 00:52:35.000 --> 00:52:38.079 worthless little worm of a cat. But I kept getting 1139 00:52:38.079 --> 00:52:42.119 good luck throughout my run. It's just like it's so random, 1140 00:52:42.159 --> 00:52:43.880 I think, is what I'm saying. Is like I was 1141 00:52:43.920 --> 00:52:47.599 amazed with the variants, the variance of items, the variants 1142 00:52:47.599 --> 00:52:49.920 of types of cats, the variants of like what you 1143 00:52:49.960 --> 00:52:52.519 can do with their classes and their cadence and there 1144 00:52:53.000 --> 00:52:54.920 and the world that you got. I never had even 1145 00:52:54.960 --> 00:52:56.400 a similar run, not once. 1146 00:52:56.559 --> 00:52:58.480 So and that's the thing that I think excites me 1147 00:52:58.519 --> 00:53:01.039 the most about this game is because because there are 1148 00:53:01.079 --> 00:53:03.599 so many you know, passive inactive abilities and things like that, 1149 00:53:03.599 --> 00:53:05.599 that you don't know what you're going to get. And 1150 00:53:05.920 --> 00:53:08.719 twice now because I banks probably put as much time. 1151 00:53:08.760 --> 00:53:10.679 So let's say together we put over one hundred hours 1152 00:53:10.679 --> 00:53:13.960 into it. Man Bonk and I got one completely broken 1153 00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:17.360 build and she got one, and both in a fun way. 1154 00:53:17.400 --> 00:53:23.760 I say broken parentheses positive here, what do you mean broken? Yeah? Yeah, okay, 1155 00:53:23.800 --> 00:53:27.119 So with Bonks, it was she had a passive called singularity, 1156 00:53:27.280 --> 00:53:29.440 which makes it so everything is one, and so it's 1157 00:53:29.440 --> 00:53:31.840 like you have one HP, you have one MANA, any 1158 00:53:31.920 --> 00:53:34.880 damage you receive is one, like all these things are one. 1159 00:53:35.159 --> 00:53:37.559 But then she also got an item that she equipped 1160 00:53:37.679 --> 00:53:41.000 that made it so anytime you take one damage, it 1161 00:53:41.079 --> 00:53:45.519 counts as zero damage. So the one thing made it 1162 00:53:45.559 --> 00:53:47.320 soever all damage is one. The other one made it 1163 00:53:47.320 --> 00:53:49.360 to all one damage is zero. She had an immortal 1164 00:53:49.480 --> 00:53:51.840 cat like could not could not get hurt. So that's 1165 00:53:51.840 --> 00:53:52.639 incredible funny. 1166 00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:55.960 That's like mine philosophical thought experiment. 1167 00:53:56.360 --> 00:53:58.519 Yeah, and mine was just oh my god, it was 1168 00:53:58.559 --> 00:54:00.400 just the most dominant build here where it's like I 1169 00:54:00.440 --> 00:54:03.239 had a cleric that had this thing called Hallowed Ground 1170 00:54:03.280 --> 00:54:05.559 where it would throw a blessing pickup that's a little 1171 00:54:05.599 --> 00:54:08.400 like blue crucifix thing, And so normally you go over 1172 00:54:08.440 --> 00:54:10.719 this thing and it gives you one shield that will 1173 00:54:10.719 --> 00:54:13.639 basically absorb any amount of damage, so one hit, even 1174 00:54:13.639 --> 00:54:15.320 if it's sixty damage, it's just going to be poo. 1175 00:54:15.599 --> 00:54:17.440 That was just a shield. But then I had a 1176 00:54:17.480 --> 00:54:20.840 passive that made anything that I pick up is shared 1177 00:54:20.880 --> 00:54:24.800 among my entire team. So now suddenly I throw the shield, 1178 00:54:25.159 --> 00:54:26.639 I pick it up, and my whole team has it. 1179 00:54:27.079 --> 00:54:29.519 Now the bonus was I had a ranger that had 1180 00:54:29.519 --> 00:54:31.760 a passive that made all of my trap effects and 1181 00:54:31.800 --> 00:54:34.679 everything doubled. And one of my traps was a spider 1182 00:54:34.719 --> 00:54:39.760 egg trap that would normally spawn four spiders when an 1183 00:54:39.840 --> 00:54:43.760 enemy died, pretty decent, but with the double anytime I 1184 00:54:43.840 --> 00:54:48.400 killed any enemy, I would get eight fucking spiders. And 1185 00:54:48.480 --> 00:54:52.960 here's the real kicker, the clericx ability. It shares all 1186 00:54:53.000 --> 00:54:55.679 pickups with the whole team. That counted all these fucking 1187 00:54:55.719 --> 00:54:58.480 spiders and maggots and everything. So I would literally have 1188 00:54:58.760 --> 00:55:02.880 like twenty two fucking things on my team, and every 1189 00:55:02.880 --> 00:55:06.159 time I pick up like this invincible crucifix thing. They 1190 00:55:06.239 --> 00:55:09.840 all get it. So every single match to every boss 1191 00:55:09.960 --> 00:55:12.159 is just like it's just filled with all these fucking 1192 00:55:12.239 --> 00:55:16.599 spiders that are basically invincible, and I was just annihilating everything. 1193 00:55:16.639 --> 00:55:19.039 It just felt so broken. But like, if that was 1194 00:55:19.079 --> 00:55:21.119 every round, that would suck, that would feel broken in 1195 00:55:21.119 --> 00:55:22.760 a bad way. But when you just like it clicks 1196 00:55:22.800 --> 00:55:25.400 together and you realize what you've got, it's a moment like, oh, 1197 00:55:25.400 --> 00:55:26.559 this is going to be the best run ever. 1198 00:55:26.920 --> 00:55:29.760 And once you finish the rounds and it's like okay, well, 1199 00:55:29.800 --> 00:55:31.519 then you know you got to come up with something new. 1200 00:55:31.599 --> 00:55:33.920 At least for me. Right now, I had a really 1201 00:55:34.000 --> 00:55:36.800 strong hand. I just had I had a really good 1202 00:55:37.000 --> 00:55:41.880 healer and a really good damage dealer, and they were unstoppable. 1203 00:55:41.960 --> 00:55:43.719 And so I went through the whole area, all the 1204 00:55:43.719 --> 00:55:45.559 way through like the caves and everything, and I was like, 1205 00:55:45.599 --> 00:55:48.119 I'm a genius. But then when they get home, it's like, 1206 00:55:48.119 --> 00:55:49.920 all right, well now I have to find a new build, 1207 00:55:50.119 --> 00:55:54.039 and so I'm just constantly pulling. I'm pushing myself as 1208 00:55:54.079 --> 00:55:59.519 a gamer to find the best way to combine items 1209 00:55:59.559 --> 00:56:02.400 and builds as opposed to just being like, well, I 1210 00:56:02.440 --> 00:56:05.360 know what system works for me. It's it makes me 1211 00:56:05.400 --> 00:56:07.199 get out of my comfort zone and be like, I 1212 00:56:07.199 --> 00:56:09.280 guess I need to try the thief in this one. 1213 00:56:09.800 --> 00:56:11.760 I don't like the thief at all. Have you got 1214 00:56:11.760 --> 00:56:13.199 any classes past that? 1215 00:56:14.679 --> 00:56:16.840 Uh? 1216 00:56:17.159 --> 00:56:19.760 I don't. I don't think I've unlocked any more classes 1217 00:56:19.960 --> 00:56:22.000 I have, Like, I think it's the original ones, right, 1218 00:56:22.039 --> 00:56:23.079 It's like I think there's. 1219 00:56:23.320 --> 00:56:27.920 Tank, bunk Age, Ranger, cleric, Fighter, and then there's Thief, 1220 00:56:28.000 --> 00:56:29.119 an original one Thief. 1221 00:56:29.440 --> 00:56:31.320 Yeah, I don't know either I unlocked it. 1222 00:56:31.320 --> 00:56:34.000 Or early on, but yeah, and then there's yeah, but 1223 00:56:34.039 --> 00:56:34.400 I think. 1224 00:56:34.239 --> 00:56:37.719 There's twelve classes. But it's it's the amount of items 1225 00:56:37.719 --> 00:56:42.000 and upgrades that make things like so variable ultimately that 1226 00:56:42.119 --> 00:56:44.599 I think is like such a game changer. I've had 1227 00:56:44.960 --> 00:56:48.800 really interesting items that I think are are funny and unique. 1228 00:56:48.800 --> 00:56:52.639 I got one that was, uh, poison, and it poisons 1229 00:56:52.679 --> 00:56:55.880 everything on the map no matter what you know, friend 1230 00:56:56.400 --> 00:56:59.400 and ally and and villain, and so if there's a 1231 00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:02.199 shits in a stuff on the map, I just use 1232 00:57:02.800 --> 00:57:06.039 the I just use it. I just equip it, and 1233 00:57:06.079 --> 00:57:08.239 then I try and heal myself and make sure that 1234 00:57:08.320 --> 00:57:11.039 I don't have poison. But then it's poisoning everybody else. 1235 00:57:11.079 --> 00:57:12.920 The entire map, and I think that's kind of cheeky 1236 00:57:12.960 --> 00:57:15.119 to be able to do that, but you can't save 1237 00:57:15.199 --> 00:57:16.960 some because the game yells at. 1238 00:57:16.840 --> 00:57:21.920 You catch mister Rossetti. They even like reference mister Rossetti specifically. Yeah, 1239 00:57:22.199 --> 00:57:24.159 I kind of love that everything feels like it's got 1240 00:57:24.159 --> 00:57:26.079 consequences and stuff. Like I've had things where it's like 1241 00:57:26.119 --> 00:57:28.639 I have a dream like cat build and then like 1242 00:57:28.679 --> 00:57:30.400 it goes into one of those things where it's like, 1243 00:57:30.400 --> 00:57:31.880 here's a gross hole. Do you want to fuck it? 1244 00:57:32.039 --> 00:57:34.440 And like I guess, and then it's like, well, now 1245 00:57:34.480 --> 00:57:37.119 you have a fucking thing where you just attack yourself 1246 00:57:37.159 --> 00:57:38.719 seventy five percent of the time you attack, It's like, 1247 00:57:38.760 --> 00:57:40.519 what fuck? I just ruined my cat to try to 1248 00:57:40.519 --> 00:57:41.079 fuck a hole. 1249 00:57:42.039 --> 00:57:43.599 Well, let that be a lesson to you. 1250 00:57:43.760 --> 00:57:46.960 I know, I will say and I won't say specifics, 1251 00:57:46.960 --> 00:57:49.480 but I will say the thing with like, oh, your 1252 00:57:49.480 --> 00:57:51.639 cat's done at the end. There is just stuff that 1253 00:57:51.679 --> 00:57:54.519 unlocks where it's like there are reasons where you would 1254 00:57:54.559 --> 00:57:57.119 want to have, like when you have different rooms and 1255 00:57:57.119 --> 00:57:58.679 stuff like let's say I've got a room that is 1256 00:57:58.800 --> 00:58:02.199 just like here's all Stars, here's the all Stars that 1257 00:58:02.280 --> 00:58:05.119 like went on a successful run and I love their 1258 00:58:05.159 --> 00:58:07.760 passives and stuff. I'm gonna and I'm gonna have a 1259 00:58:07.880 --> 00:58:09.400 use for four of them. 1260 00:58:09.400 --> 00:58:11.679 Later and all my losers go into the hole. 1261 00:58:11.880 --> 00:58:12.800 Yeah, they all just die. 1262 00:58:12.920 --> 00:58:14.920 Yeah, brutal. 1263 00:58:15.360 --> 00:58:15.559 Yeah. 1264 00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:17.280 I want to keep playing more of that because, yeah, 1265 00:58:17.280 --> 00:58:19.079 I think it is the like if this then that 1266 00:58:19.280 --> 00:58:21.800 logic that seems really compelling to toy with with the 1267 00:58:21.840 --> 00:58:25.119 items and the different cat accommodations, And I understand they're 1268 00:58:25.159 --> 00:58:27.760 not trying to make it the best turn based tactic 1269 00:58:27.800 --> 00:58:31.199 game on the map itself. That's not what this game 1270 00:58:31.280 --> 00:58:33.599 is about. So I want to keep playing that. So 1271 00:58:33.599 --> 00:58:35.320 I'm not digging it for that. I'm just saying, like 1272 00:58:36.039 --> 00:58:38.480 I think I went in expecting it to be like 1273 00:58:38.559 --> 00:58:40.360 into the breach right away, which. 1274 00:58:40.480 --> 00:58:42.199 It's a bit different. I mean that's more like, yes, 1275 00:58:42.400 --> 00:58:44.119 you know, for sure it's into the. 1276 00:58:44.039 --> 00:58:47.440 Breach if they were like fucking and sucking the whole time. Yeah, 1277 00:58:47.440 --> 00:58:50.440 and then like they were fighting dicks that were coming 1278 00:58:50.480 --> 00:58:51.800 out of butts. 1279 00:58:52.159 --> 00:58:52.360 Yeah. 1280 00:58:52.400 --> 00:58:54.320 Yeah, it's like it's weird because it's like we do 1281 00:58:54.400 --> 00:58:56.559 gross out humor and stuff. You're like, we're not we're 1282 00:58:56.599 --> 00:58:57.920 not above gross out here. 1283 00:58:58.559 --> 00:59:01.079 Yeah we are gross, but there's. 1284 00:59:00.760 --> 00:59:02.920 Something about this type or it just kind of feels 1285 00:59:02.960 --> 00:59:05.400 like there's not even a joke or cleverness behind anything. 1286 00:59:05.519 --> 00:59:07.360 It's just like what if this thing was like a 1287 00:59:07.360 --> 00:59:10.039 bloody asshole and it's like that's I don't want bad. 1288 00:59:10.159 --> 00:59:12.400 I don't fight a bloody asshole. 1289 00:59:12.559 --> 00:59:14.280 Yeah, yeah, it's like great. 1290 00:59:15.039 --> 00:59:16.760 I think it's a bit exhaust. 1291 00:59:18.159 --> 00:59:20.719 Yeah it's not my fit, but like, I guess that 1292 00:59:20.840 --> 00:59:22.679 is a way to like add variance to a bunch 1293 00:59:22.679 --> 00:59:24.840 of different things where it's like, oh, these it's about 1294 00:59:24.920 --> 00:59:27.199 mutations and birth defects, like that's a big part of 1295 00:59:27.239 --> 00:59:29.480 what happens to these units. So like I guess that's 1296 00:59:29.519 --> 00:59:32.440 one way you could do it. No, this guy's assholes bloody. 1297 00:59:32.760 --> 00:59:37.679 And I got over Binding of Isaac's asthetic and humor, 1298 00:59:38.400 --> 00:59:41.119 and I absolutely love that game over the years that 1299 00:59:41.119 --> 00:59:43.719 they had been updating it, so like I'm I'm not 1300 00:59:43.840 --> 00:59:47.000 above moving past it. I'm getting there, but I really 1301 00:59:47.000 --> 00:59:48.760 do kind of just want to save it for flights now. 1302 00:59:48.880 --> 00:59:50.679 Now let me ask you, I'm loving this and I 1303 00:59:50.719 --> 00:59:52.760 know it's a different genre, but like when Binding of 1304 00:59:52.760 --> 00:59:54.760 Isaac came out, that's when I learned what a roguelight 1305 00:59:54.920 --> 00:59:57.559 was because I remember I played it a Game Informer 1306 00:59:58.039 --> 01:00:00.280 and I was like, I died and I back to 1307 01:00:00.280 --> 01:00:01.559 the beginning. I was like, what the fuck is this shit? 1308 01:00:01.800 --> 01:00:02.960 And I think it was our PC out of the 1309 01:00:03.000 --> 01:00:04.599 Adam Bistner told me it's like, oh, it's a rogue 1310 01:00:04.639 --> 01:00:05.639 light and it's like, what the fuck is that? And 1311 01:00:05.639 --> 01:00:06.920 he's like, oh, yeah, you die and you restart a 1312 01:00:07.000 --> 01:00:08.400 running and you have to start over every time. It's 1313 01:00:08.400 --> 01:00:11.119 like that sounds fucking stupid, and I just like never 1314 01:00:11.159 --> 01:00:13.199 tried it again, and then I wound up. Rogue lights 1315 01:00:13.199 --> 01:00:16.159 are like maybe my favorite genre. Would it be worth 1316 01:00:16.199 --> 01:00:18.639 going back or has like the genre moved so far 1317 01:00:18.639 --> 01:00:19.159 beyond that. 1318 01:00:19.400 --> 01:00:22.800 To Binding of Isaac. Yeah, yeah, oh they've still very 1319 01:00:22.800 --> 01:00:25.519 They've tweaked it so much. It had like six thousand 1320 01:00:25.599 --> 01:00:28.599 concurrent players at some point, like they've they've worked they 1321 01:00:28.679 --> 01:00:30.960 had worked on it so much throughout the years, it's 1322 01:00:31.000 --> 01:00:33.079 going to be unrecognizable. I didn't like it when I 1323 01:00:33.079 --> 01:00:36.159 first played in two thousand and ten or whatever it 1324 01:00:36.199 --> 01:00:39.280 was twenty twelve, Like I think since they made this 1325 01:00:39.320 --> 01:00:41.599 because it's a super meat boy than that and then this, right. 1326 01:00:41.800 --> 01:00:43.599 I uh, there's something in between. There was like the 1327 01:00:43.639 --> 01:00:45.440 end of the World and is nigh or something. 1328 01:00:45.719 --> 01:00:48.440 But yeah, no, Binding of Isaac is still it reminds 1329 01:00:48.480 --> 01:00:50.800 me of like Enter the Gungeon now, that kind of 1330 01:00:50.800 --> 01:00:55.559 format of rogue Light dungeon crawler. Yeah, it'd be worth 1331 01:00:55.599 --> 01:00:57.840 checking out. I still enjoy it. Okay. 1332 01:00:57.840 --> 01:00:59.679 People say it's kind of like this in the sense 1333 01:00:59.679 --> 01:01:01.679 that you can easily play one hundred hours of it, 1334 01:01:01.760 --> 01:01:04.639 like it's been it's built to pour time. 1335 01:01:04.760 --> 01:01:06.679 Yeah. I think the biggest fan I know is like 1336 01:01:06.760 --> 01:01:09.280 Russ fresh Stick and his other his favorite game is 1337 01:01:09.320 --> 01:01:12.199 like Spelunky. I think it's more like Spelunky, like with 1338 01:01:12.400 --> 01:01:17.760 a few more rogue Light permanent upgrades between runs. 1339 01:01:17.599 --> 01:01:19.239 Which one has more bloody assholes? 1340 01:01:20.480 --> 01:01:24.719 Mugenics for sure. Yeah, yeah, No, Binding Isaac is all 1341 01:01:24.760 --> 01:01:27.880 like pregnancy and whatnot. 1342 01:01:28.000 --> 01:01:29.159 And again I put that in the kind of the 1343 01:01:29.239 --> 01:01:30.880 same category of like a lot of it just seems like, 1344 01:01:31.000 --> 01:01:33.239 is it fucked up that we did? This enemy is 1345 01:01:33.239 --> 01:01:35.519 an abortion with the fucking rifle, and it's like, I 1346 01:01:35.519 --> 01:01:39.679 don't you know that does nothing for me? 1347 01:01:40.280 --> 01:01:42.239 What's that that happened in Mugenics? 1348 01:01:42.320 --> 01:01:44.960 No, I feel like everything I started Binding Isaac is like, yeah, 1349 01:01:44.960 --> 01:01:48.760 this boss is just like stabbing her pussy. 1350 01:01:49.280 --> 01:01:53.199 It was, Yeah, that's like I don't like this.

Like the Mario Tennis story. Mode 1383 01:03:30.440 --> 01:03:32.920 starts with Daisy laying in bed and it's like she's been. 1384 01:03:32.880 --> 01:03:34.079 She's poop as well. 1385 01:03:34.119 --> 01:03:35.960 Well it's like, oh she's not getting any better, like 1386 01:03:35.960 --> 01:03:38.719 she shows her it's like like clearly dying and there's 1387 01:03:38.760 --> 01:03:42.920 like Donkey Kong talking to like Tennis.

Like we're 1421 01:05:14.599 --> 01:05:16.239 going to shoot a bunch of cacti at you and 1422 01:05:16.280 --> 01:05:17.800 you've got to do a top spin to send them 1423 01:05:17.800 --> 01:05:19.719 back and you do that seven times, and then you 1424 01:05:19.760 --> 01:05:21.239 walk to the next thing and they're like, all right, 1425 01:05:21.239 --> 01:05:23.760 well here hit a star shot on this to seven 1426 01:05:23.800 --> 01:05:25.920 piranha plans and then you move on, like it's just 1427 01:05:26.000 --> 01:05:27.320 like a list of shit you have to do. 1428 01:05:27.599 --> 01:05:31.480 Follow up question, Yeah, is this game bad? That's the thing. 1429 01:05:31.559 --> 01:05:35.400 It's not bad. Like when you're playing tennis, it's fine. 1430 01:05:35.679 --> 01:05:39.280 It is like it feels good, but it's like it doesn't. 1431 01:05:39.119 --> 01:05:39.679 All I want. 1432 01:05:39.880 --> 01:05:43.079 It doesn't noticeably better than like Mario Tennis sixty four 1433 01:05:43.159 --> 01:05:44.800 that you can play on Switch online, I mean. 1434 01:05:44.719 --> 01:05:47.920 Which still felt great last time we played it in December. Yeah. 1435 01:05:47.920 --> 01:05:50.199 No, it's like when you're just playing tennis, it's a 1436 01:05:50.280 --> 01:05:52.320 gay I like that I'm playing this. There's some stuff 1437 01:05:52.320 --> 01:05:53.920 I don't leve where it's like I have never once 1438 01:05:53.920 --> 01:05:55.880 been able to hit the ball out of bounce, and 1439 01:05:55.920 --> 01:05:57.679 like that is part of the kind of risk reward 1440 01:05:57.679 --> 01:05:59.760 thing of tennis games. It's like, well, I want to 1441 01:05:59.800 --> 01:06:02.480 hit hard and fast close to the line, but I 1442 01:06:02.519 --> 01:06:04.400 don't want to knock it out. And this one it 1443 01:06:04.440 --> 01:06:06.000 doesn't feel like there's that risk. I mean, you can 1444 01:06:06.039 --> 01:06:08.280 just crank the analog stick all the way and it's 1445 01:06:08.280 --> 01:06:09.960 not gonna go out of bound, so it is pretty 1446 01:06:10.039 --> 01:06:14.119 safe in that way. It does introduce these new beaver rackets. 1447 01:06:14.280 --> 01:06:15.840 That's the princess is dead. 1448 01:06:16.400 --> 01:06:18.119 They don't really go back to that. I don't know 1449 01:06:18.119 --> 01:06:19.000 if she dies. 1450 01:06:20.039 --> 01:06:22.599 And you're playing tennis and your corpses. 1451 01:06:23.559 --> 01:06:25.599 Somewhere the red herring, it's a mcguffin. 1452 01:06:25.880 --> 01:06:27.599 It is the thing that gets them to the cave, 1453 01:06:27.679 --> 01:06:29.440 to get them beat up and turn into babies that 1454 01:06:29.519 --> 01:06:32.079 suck at tennis. What's what's confusing about this? 1455 01:06:32.880 --> 01:06:35.119 It just feels like it feels like a trope, like 1456 01:06:35.159 --> 01:06:38.039 the wife and the fridge, Like she has no purpose. 1457 01:06:38.280 --> 01:06:40.840 Her job is to die so that you play tennis. 1458 01:06:41.000 --> 01:06:44.119 But what if the wife almost death made you turn 1459 01:06:44.159 --> 01:06:45.840 into a baby and then have to learn to be 1460 01:06:45.840 --> 01:06:48.480 good at tennis. I'm putting the images in our discord 1461 01:06:48.480 --> 01:06:49.559 if you would like to take a look at this. 1462 01:06:49.599 --> 01:06:52.719 So I don't just sound insane, that's that's Daisy dying 1463 01:06:52.800 --> 01:06:53.159 right there. 1464 01:06:53.239 --> 01:06:56.719 I think that the people at Nintendo have only just 1465 01:06:56.920 --> 01:07:00.519 discovered cocaine in the last few years, and that just 1466 01:07:00.559 --> 01:07:02.000 explains their run of games. 1467 01:07:02.039 --> 01:07:04.800 Mario Otisse, t Rex's mustaches. Yeah. 1468 01:07:04.840 --> 01:07:07.960 Sometimes it's really good, like Mario Odyssey. Other times it's 1469 01:07:08.039 --> 01:07:11.480 like the end of a coke bender and they make 1470 01:07:12.800 --> 01:07:14.480 Mario Tennis story mode. 1471 01:07:17.000 --> 01:07:19.519 Its like half cross eyed and stuff, And despite getting 1472 01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:21.519 lots of brass, she showed no signs of improving. 1473 01:07:21.880 --> 01:07:23.400 Yo, she doesn't look good at all. 1474 01:07:27.239 --> 01:07:29.760 Waluigi or Warrio. 1475 01:07:29.639 --> 01:07:32.599 I think, said Yo. I think he's a Yo guy. 1476 01:07:32.760 --> 01:07:36.519 Who do you think? Who do you think kok? Yeah, 1477 01:07:36.559 --> 01:07:37.599 Cannon says. 1478 01:07:37.400 --> 01:07:42.000 Yo, I think, says Yo. Now yeah. So it's like 1479 01:07:42.199 --> 01:07:44.000 everything I just said makes it sound more interesting than 1480 01:07:44.079 --> 01:07:46.599 it is. It's really not. It's like they do these 1481 01:07:46.599 --> 01:07:48.599 stats where it's like and they make it seem like 1482 01:07:48.639 --> 01:07:51.639 it's an RPG. It's not. It's just like meters moving 1483 01:07:51.719 --> 01:07:55.320 up after every stupid little training thing. So totally skippable 1484 01:07:55.440 --> 01:07:58.079 story mode if you just want to have it on 1485 01:07:58.119 --> 01:08:01.400 your system to play a fun tennis game with every 1486 01:08:01.440 --> 01:08:03.519 once in a while. That's fine, but at this seventy dollars, 1487 01:08:03.719 --> 01:08:06.480 so you know, like and then how much you want 1488 01:08:06.480 --> 01:08:07.639 to play tennis every once in a while. 1489 01:08:09.320 --> 01:08:12.440 Yeah, I just want. I just want the tennis, and 1490 01:08:12.679 --> 01:08:14.079 I guess I get to play Versus mode. 1491 01:08:14.719 --> 01:08:16.760 You play Versus Mode. It's got the fever Racket, things 1492 01:08:16.800 --> 01:08:20.479 that are like ads, like you know, these super shots that, oh, 1493 01:08:20.720 --> 01:08:23.119 the banana racket will make it so like bananas fall 1494 01:08:23.199 --> 01:08:24.760 on the court when it lands, you know, stuff like 1495 01:08:24.800 --> 01:08:26.720 that like that. Yeah, yeah, it's fun. 1496 01:08:26.640 --> 01:08:31.760 Into yep, Mary, You've been playing more Mio, which you 1497 01:08:31.760 --> 01:08:33.399 talked about in the last couple episodes. 1498 01:08:33.399 --> 01:08:36.720 I think just the last episode, I think I started 1499 01:08:36.720 --> 01:08:38.960 playing Meo and I really liked it, and I was, 1500 01:08:39.079 --> 01:08:42.399 you know, comparing it to other metroid venias that I 1501 01:08:42.439 --> 01:08:45.840 think are flighty and fun, and I was like, and 1502 01:08:46.319 --> 01:08:52.520 it's not insanely hard. Well, it got really hard, got 1503 01:08:52.640 --> 01:08:56.680 really really tough. Somewhere in like the fourth to fifth area, 1504 01:08:57.960 --> 01:09:02.039 the platforming gets pretty brutal. Well, I'm still enjoying it, 1505 01:09:02.079 --> 01:09:04.439 but I have to take breaks now because it's defeating 1506 01:09:04.479 --> 01:09:06.479 to play a boss for like two hours. You need 1507 01:09:06.479 --> 01:09:09.920 like a break mentally after you take on a boss. 1508 01:09:09.600 --> 01:09:13.199 For that long hollow night levels like Silk Songs type. 1509 01:09:13.720 --> 01:09:17.479 I would say that it's not as hard as Silk Song, 1510 01:09:17.600 --> 01:09:19.840 but it's because it doesn't have the run backs that 1511 01:09:19.880 --> 01:09:22.880 are so brutal. But it has a boss fight. It 1512 01:09:22.920 --> 01:09:27.159 has this boss fight with two battling robots and there's 1513 01:09:27.199 --> 01:09:28.920 a bunch of spikes on the ground and you just 1514 01:09:28.960 --> 01:09:31.960 have this tiny little stand that you're on to fight 1515 01:09:32.039 --> 01:09:36.520 these robots that are doing symmetrical moves very difficult, and 1516 01:09:36.560 --> 01:09:40.680 then I think halfway through the fight, the stand disappears, 1517 01:09:41.199 --> 01:09:43.119 and so you have to hit them to get your 1518 01:09:43.199 --> 01:09:48.000 jump back, maintain your loftiness for the second half of 1519 01:09:48.039 --> 01:09:53.680 the fight. I mean is like, come on, yes, the 1520 01:09:53.720 --> 01:09:56.359 stand doesn't come back. You have to hold the fight 1521 01:09:57.279 --> 01:10:00.920 by attacking them using your gly and then getting your 1522 01:10:01.000 --> 01:10:04.960 jump back by attacking, all while not taking damage. And 1523 01:10:06.039 --> 01:10:09.039 this game, as you progress, and it's a really beautiful 1524 01:10:09.199 --> 01:10:12.479 like story component to it that I think is absolutely lovely, 1525 01:10:14.520 --> 01:10:18.079 you take permanent damage. So as I'm gaining life at 1526 01:10:18.119 --> 01:10:20.399 this stage in the game, I have like nine life 1527 01:10:20.399 --> 01:10:23.600 and I'm really proud of it. I've lost four life permanently, 1528 01:10:24.039 --> 01:10:27.199 so I actually only have five life. It's not as 1529 01:10:27.319 --> 01:10:33.039 like beneficial as it seems when you keep taking permanent damage, 1530 01:10:33.039 --> 01:10:35.359 and I think sometimes you recoup them, but right now 1531 01:10:35.359 --> 01:10:38.960 I'm just like at a heavy loss of life. So yeah, 1532 01:10:39.000 --> 01:10:41.960 it's just a brutal area that I think I'm in 1533 01:10:42.279 --> 01:10:46.279 but still loving it, still enjoying it, and I wish 1534 01:10:46.399 --> 01:10:49.920 I'm like determined to beat it, but I've been getting 1535 01:10:49.960 --> 01:10:55.520 stuck at a couple of these maniacal boss and platforming 1536 01:10:55.560 --> 01:10:59.439 spaces that I think test my patience to get through. 1537 01:10:59.600 --> 01:11:03.880 But I am still especially for people who are Metroidvania 1538 01:11:03.960 --> 01:11:06.760 fans and are like, I'm looking for the next Metroid Vana, 1539 01:11:07.359 --> 01:11:09.600 this is the one I would recommend. There was a 1540 01:11:09.600 --> 01:11:14.159 beautiful area where I kept going up and I found 1541 01:11:14.199 --> 01:11:16.039 this hole in glass and so I was like, oh, 1542 01:11:16.079 --> 01:11:17.680 I'll go through this glass. And I kept going up 1543 01:11:17.720 --> 01:11:21.720 and up and up, and it just really rewarded me 1544 01:11:21.920 --> 01:11:27.840 with this visual display. Just a stunning place to put 1545 01:11:27.880 --> 01:11:30.560 me in. And it just has a little bench, very 1546 01:11:30.560 --> 01:11:33.239 hollow night and you sit in it and you just 1547 01:11:33.479 --> 01:11:36.359 look you just look at the view as a player, 1548 01:11:36.520 --> 01:11:38.359 and I think that that is one of the best 1549 01:11:38.439 --> 01:11:43.000 rewards that you can give a player outside of obviously 1550 01:11:43.079 --> 01:11:45.920 like extra health or something like that, but instead of 1551 01:11:46.000 --> 01:11:49.560 like an item, it is a place for thoughtful introspection 1552 01:11:50.239 --> 01:11:54.359 with really nice music and a beautiful visual. And I 1553 01:11:54.359 --> 01:11:59.239 thought to myself, like, these devs gave a shit about 1554 01:11:59.359 --> 01:12:01.600 the environment that they're putting you in. They're not just 1555 01:12:01.640 --> 01:12:04.039 saying like, now do another hired boss. They were like, 1556 01:12:04.119 --> 01:12:07.079 this area is just for you to have thinkums about 1557 01:12:07.119 --> 01:12:10.600 life and love and why you exist. And I appreciate 1558 01:12:10.600 --> 01:12:11.279 when games do. 1559 01:12:11.239 --> 01:12:13.680 That kind of reminds me I need to I've been 1560 01:12:13.720 --> 01:12:15.439 meaning to you for years to go back and play 1561 01:12:16.000 --> 01:12:18.159 or In the Will of the Wisps. 1562 01:12:17.520 --> 01:12:18.119 A good one. 1563 01:12:18.560 --> 01:12:21.000 We talked about it years ago. I came out I 1564 01:12:21.119 --> 01:12:23.479 love the Blind Forest, and I started Will of the Wisps. 1565 01:12:23.560 --> 01:12:25.319 But I think for whatever reason, once it started to 1566 01:12:25.359 --> 01:12:27.319 open up, I had other stuff going on. But I 1567 01:12:27.399 --> 01:12:30.279 remember that game like really liking those environments as well. 1568 01:12:31.039 --> 01:12:33.439 I've been comparing it to Or the most of all 1569 01:12:33.560 --> 01:12:35.000 of the games that I would compare this too, I 1570 01:12:35.039 --> 01:12:37.039 would say it's very similar to an Or. It's just 1571 01:12:37.479 --> 01:12:42.119 meaner than or Ori. I think a casual person can 1572 01:12:42.159 --> 01:12:45.359 get through Or. I don't know if a casual gamer 1573 01:12:45.399 --> 01:12:47.319 could get through MIO. I do think you have to 1574 01:12:47.359 --> 01:12:52.840 have some prowess for uh yeah, for being able to 1575 01:12:52.960 --> 01:12:57.760 get through some of these boss fights, but very very thoughtful. 1576 01:12:58.000 --> 01:12:59.800 It sounds like the combats is probably where the difficulty 1577 01:12:59.800 --> 01:13:02.680 comes from. Where or I remember would have those spikes 1578 01:13:02.760 --> 01:13:05.600 where it would be the very dramatic chase sequences and 1579 01:13:05.640 --> 01:13:07.079 stuff and you got to like hit a bunch of 1580 01:13:07.119 --> 01:13:08.039 platforming stuff. 1581 01:13:08.439 --> 01:13:11.439 Yes, the platforming was tough. I would say, yeah, this 1582 01:13:11.520 --> 01:13:14.479 doesn't have any timing platforming, but oh god does it 1583 01:13:14.560 --> 01:13:17.760 have some platforming spaces that also tested my patience. But 1584 01:13:18.319 --> 01:13:22.800 the upgrades are so powerful if you use them properly. 1585 01:13:22.920 --> 01:13:26.279 There's an upgrade that just lets you climb walls like 1586 01:13:26.319 --> 01:13:30.399 a spider. I mean, that is incredibly powerful. You can 1587 01:13:30.439 --> 01:13:32.199 go everywhere with that, but you can only do it 1588 01:13:32.239 --> 01:13:34.119 for like three seconds and again then you have to 1589 01:13:34.439 --> 01:13:36.720 you have to recognize you have to hit somebody to 1590 01:13:36.800 --> 01:13:41.720 get your wall climbing back. But you know, as long 1591 01:13:41.760 --> 01:13:45.000 as you understand those fundamentals, you can get through it. 1592 01:13:45.079 --> 01:13:47.680 So anyway, hopefully by the next time we talk, I'm 1593 01:13:47.680 --> 01:13:50.239 trying not to jinx myself. I can be like it done. 1594 01:13:50.399 --> 01:13:52.600 I really like it. I still like it, but yeah, 1595 01:13:52.640 --> 01:13:53.319 it's harder now. 1596 01:13:54.159 --> 01:13:58.720 Well, Dan, you also playing Cinacross? Am I saying that correctly? 1597 01:13:59.199 --> 01:14:01.079 I wonder that every time I say it, because it's 1598 01:14:01.119 --> 01:14:04.000 a C I n I cross't seny Across sceney Cross. 1599 01:14:04.720 --> 01:14:09.520 It is Pacross, which I deeply love Pacross, and it's 1600 01:14:09.560 --> 01:14:13.640 a rogue light, which those two weren't activated my brain immediately. 1601 01:14:13.920 --> 01:14:15.920 And I played the next Fest demo a few months 1602 01:14:15.920 --> 01:14:18.119 back and it was great. Full game is out now. 1603 01:14:18.520 --> 01:14:22.239 I like it a lot. It is it's like the 1604 01:14:22.359 --> 01:14:26.159 blatrode Pacrosse, but it's got kind of that like Slay 1605 01:14:26.199 --> 01:14:28.560 the Spire type rogue light map where you know, you 1606 01:14:28.600 --> 01:14:30.600 see the the rooms and it's like, okay, do I 1607 01:14:30.600 --> 01:14:32.640 want to go to the shop here this campfire to 1608 01:14:32.840 --> 01:14:34.680 you know, get my HP back? Or do I want 1609 01:14:34.680 --> 01:14:35.960 to go here and try to get some items on 1610 01:14:35.960 --> 01:14:38.399 this fight or whatever? And each of the like fights 1611 01:14:38.560 --> 01:14:40.840 has a you know, one through four or five or 1612 01:14:40.840 --> 01:14:43.600 something difficulty level, so that corresponds like is this gonna 1613 01:14:43.600 --> 01:14:45.119 be a five by five grid? Is this gonna be 1614 01:14:45.119 --> 01:14:47.079 like a twenty by twenty grid? Things like that, and 1615 01:14:47.159 --> 01:14:49.560 like it's. 1616 01:14:49.000 --> 01:14:50.880 I sell for ten dollars right now. 1617 01:14:51.079 --> 01:14:53.279 Yeah, yeah, And it's it's fun because like I didn't 1618 01:14:53.319 --> 01:14:55.199 know how I was gonna feel about like because to me, 1619 01:14:55.319 --> 01:14:57.920 pacross has always been like it's such a great game 1620 01:14:58.000 --> 01:15:00.680 of like you don't ever need to get and across. 1621 01:15:00.720 --> 01:15:02.640 It is a logic puzzle, the type I like where 1622 01:15:02.680 --> 01:15:05.600 it's like, okay, with just the numbers on the board here, 1623 01:15:05.920 --> 01:15:07.880 you should be able to tell the blocks that you 1624 01:15:07.880 --> 01:15:09.319 need to fill in, which ones you need to break 1625 01:15:09.399 --> 01:15:11.920 or cross out or whatever, and so you can really 1626 01:15:11.960 --> 01:15:15.800 take your time with traditional pacrosse, this one it is 1627 01:15:15.920 --> 01:15:18.479 timed because like you will have like a time limit 1628 01:15:18.520 --> 01:15:21.239 like a blue orb basically that's ticking down. 1629 01:15:20.920 --> 01:15:23.800 And that will looks like Diablo one by the way, yes. 1630 01:15:23.680 --> 01:15:26.039 Yes, and it'll stay persistent. So it's like if you 1631 01:15:26.079 --> 01:15:27.319 have five minutes at the end of the level, you're 1632 01:15:27.319 --> 01:15:29.439 gonna have five minutes once you start the next one. 1633 01:15:29.520 --> 01:15:31.680 And you can get upgrades and stuff like that and 1634 01:15:31.720 --> 01:15:33.560 get items at shops where it's like I'm gonna get 1635 01:15:33.560 --> 01:15:36.399 thirty seconds back. But then you can also get passives 1636 01:15:36.399 --> 01:15:38.199 that are like, oh, all of your time bonuses are 1637 01:15:38.239 --> 01:15:40.560 plus five percent and stuff like that. So there are 1638 01:15:40.640 --> 01:15:44.119 artifacts kind of like like the Jokers and Blatro. The 1639 01:15:44.159 --> 01:15:46.560 thing is, it's like I don't feel like there's as 1640 01:15:46.680 --> 01:15:50.000 much you can do with pacrosse, so like the artifacts 1641 01:15:50.000 --> 01:15:52.760 are not necessarily as exciting as something like Blatro. So 1642 01:15:55.000 --> 01:15:57.039 you'll get buffs for like you're getting more HV game, 1643 01:15:57.079 --> 01:15:58.920 you're getting more time bonuses, You're getting things like that. 1644 01:15:58.960 --> 01:16:02.199 There's stuff where it's like it'll add gold cells to 1645 01:16:02.239 --> 01:16:04.520 the pacross board, and those are times so if you 1646 01:16:04.560 --> 01:16:06.640 get to them fast enough, you'll get some gold that 1647 01:16:06.680 --> 01:16:09.439 you can use in shops and stuff. And I guess 1648 01:16:09.479 --> 01:16:11.399 I didn't finish what I said about the time aspect. 1649 01:16:12.000 --> 01:16:15.359 That is what's interesting is that, like I was worried that, like, well, 1650 01:16:16.279 --> 01:16:17.960 Percross to me is kind of a relaxed thing. You 1651 01:16:18.000 --> 01:16:20.119 take your time and you parse over all the numbers 1652 01:16:20.119 --> 01:16:22.600 and everything. This one is like it's across with a 1653 01:16:22.640 --> 01:16:25.760 time limit, and I think I'm stressful it does, but 1654 01:16:26.000 --> 01:16:28.760 it works. I think, like I liked, I liked doing 1655 01:16:28.840 --> 01:16:30.880 fast pacross, and this is one that kind of really 1656 01:16:30.880 --> 01:16:32.880 rewards you for it. And I'll find myself going for 1657 01:16:32.960 --> 01:16:36.439 that level four difficulty twenty by twenty grid over the 1658 01:16:36.479 --> 01:16:38.600 easy because like any five y five grid you can 1659 01:16:38.600 --> 01:16:40.319 solve in two seconds, So it's like you'll get more 1660 01:16:40.399 --> 01:16:43.159 rewards than everything if you can solve it. But it's 1661 01:16:43.159 --> 01:16:45.720 gonna be tough. And then there's like fun challenges and stuff, 1662 01:16:45.720 --> 01:16:48.119 like there's items that'll give you bonuses if you don't 1663 01:16:48.199 --> 01:16:52.359 use any crosses. So you know, like cross out blocks 1664 01:16:52.600 --> 01:16:54.800 on pacrosse if you know there's no way that's gonna 1665 01:16:54.800 --> 01:16:56.680 be filled in. So this one, it's like, oh, it 1666 01:16:56.720 --> 01:16:59.520 behooves you to just fill in blocks and not mark 1667 01:16:59.560 --> 01:17:01.039 the exit on the other one. 1668 01:17:00.840 --> 01:17:04.199 Which is risky. If it's a lot of blocks. 1669 01:17:03.800 --> 01:17:06.279 Yes, that makes it. The difficulty level is so much 1670 01:17:06.359 --> 01:17:08.199 higher if you're not marking them. That's a huge part 1671 01:17:08.199 --> 01:17:11.000 of a cross pacross. So like, there are some interesting ones. 1672 01:17:11.000 --> 01:17:13.119 I would not expect a huge amount of variants and stuff. 1673 01:17:13.119 --> 01:17:15.079 They're like bosses the way like you know in Blotro 1674 01:17:15.199 --> 01:17:17.359 you do a boss and it would be like, well, 1675 01:17:17.399 --> 01:17:20.479 all diamonds are you know, not worth anything. It will 1676 01:17:20.479 --> 01:17:23.079 do things now where it's like okay, every few seconds 1677 01:17:23.199 --> 01:17:25.560 the screen turns red, and any cells you try to 1678 01:17:25.600 --> 01:17:27.520 fill in when it's red, it's gonna hurt your HP. 1679 01:17:28.720 --> 01:17:30.640 Or there's things where it's like oh, all the numbers 1680 01:17:30.760 --> 01:17:33.119 on the side of the grid are just rotating, they're 1681 01:17:33.159 --> 01:17:35.720 just spinning. So it's like a fuck all right, it's 1682 01:17:35.760 --> 01:17:40.199 kind of harding's. 1683 01:17:38.199 --> 01:17:41.800 Two to two, that's four and one must suck. 1684 01:17:42.319 --> 01:17:44.159 Yeah, it's like they're spinning pretty fast and everything. So 1685 01:17:44.239 --> 01:17:47.680 like there's some fun gimmicks there and everything. But yeah, 1686 01:17:48.079 --> 01:17:50.840 it's just a fun new twist on pacross. It's uh, 1687 01:17:50.920 --> 01:17:53.279 which I'm never gonna say no to any Here's the thing, 1688 01:17:53.279 --> 01:17:55.840 there's there's so much actual pacrosse out there, like the 1689 01:17:56.159 --> 01:17:58.760 Pacross S series on Switch there's like fucking nine or 1690 01:17:58.760 --> 01:18:01.840 ten of those or more. So I'm fine on just 1691 01:18:01.920 --> 01:18:04.119 normal pacross. I could use a few more three D Pacrosses. 1692 01:18:04.399 --> 01:18:07.119 But I think this is a cool twist on pacrosse 1693 01:18:07.279 --> 01:18:08.760 that I'm very very much enjoying. 1694 01:18:10.079 --> 01:18:10.359 Cool. 1695 01:18:10.520 --> 01:18:12.920 I love the visual style of it. I mean, I 1696 01:18:13.079 --> 01:18:17.239 just love it. Looking at screen shots. 1697 01:18:16.840 --> 01:18:19.199 Of day That's what I was trying to remember. Yes, yeah, 1698 01:18:19.439 --> 01:18:20.600 og funny. 1699 01:18:20.600 --> 01:18:26.479 I think classic you know, you know, low bit rate 1700 01:18:27.119 --> 01:18:29.760 game play. But it looks good, Like, it doesn't look bad, 1701 01:18:29.840 --> 01:18:30.560 it looks great. 1702 01:18:31.159 --> 01:18:32.840 How manything's going to do with it? Like they made 1703 01:18:32.840 --> 01:18:34.760 pacrosse look visually interesting. 1704 01:18:35.079 --> 01:18:37.920 They did. I love there's like I don't know what 1705 01:18:37.960 --> 01:18:41.520 area this is, but there's like a spinning wheel so 1706 01:18:41.560 --> 01:18:43.760 it looks kind of gambly, and there's like a ball 1707 01:18:43.760 --> 01:18:46.279 with a bunch of orbs in it and it's your gold. 1708 01:18:46.479 --> 01:18:50.560 Like that looks fun because it's it's tactic. It's tactile. 1709 01:18:50.680 --> 01:18:53.479 It's not you have forty gold. It's like a ball 1710 01:18:53.520 --> 01:18:54.760 filled with balls. 1711 01:18:54.920 --> 01:18:57.039 Yeah, it's that's at the end of every puzzle you 1712 01:18:57.039 --> 01:18:58.640 get all that stuff. There is that slot machine, so 1713 01:18:58.680 --> 01:19:01.079 like the higher difficulties, there's more reels on the slot 1714 01:19:01.079 --> 01:19:04.039 machine to get the artifacts. There is that spinning wheel 1715 01:19:04.079 --> 01:19:06.159 at the bottom that that if it lands on like 1716 01:19:06.359 --> 01:19:08.359 a two times thing, you'll get two items that you 1717 01:19:08.359 --> 01:19:10.560 can pile like consumables and stuff. So it's like you'll 1718 01:19:10.560 --> 01:19:12.600 get a consumable that's like, oh, whenever you pop it, 1719 01:19:12.600 --> 01:19:14.680 it's going to randomly fill in twenty cells on the 1720 01:19:14.680 --> 01:19:16.279 puzzle you're on right now where you pop. 1721 01:19:16.359 --> 01:19:18.159 This one a really fun Steam deck game. 1722 01:19:18.479 --> 01:19:20.119 Yeah, yeah, I mean it's it is the thing where 1723 01:19:20.159 --> 01:19:22.199 it's like obviously with the mouse you can move around 1724 01:19:22.239 --> 01:19:25.239 a big grid much faster, but you know you can 1725 01:19:25.279 --> 01:19:27.359 play it. Like most of my time was on the 1726 01:19:27.399 --> 01:19:29.279 plane and play with the steam deck so that it 1727 01:19:29.319 --> 01:19:30.800 does work, and you can use the track deck if 1728 01:19:30.800 --> 01:19:31.079 you want. 1729 01:19:31.319 --> 01:19:34.159 You can use the track pad, which you find customs thing, 1730 01:19:34.239 --> 01:19:36.479 you know, using the mouse with your. 1731 01:19:36.640 --> 01:19:39.640 I was just using the stick. It's fine, I might 1732 01:19:39.640 --> 01:19:41.520 try track pad thing. I actually made a custom track 1733 01:19:41.520 --> 01:19:43.600 pad one for Eugenics, and that did make it a 1734 01:19:43.640 --> 01:19:48.039 little nicer. So oh interesting, So I'm it was easier 1735 01:19:48.119 --> 01:19:50.159 to do that. I've not fiddled with that stuff much, 1736 01:19:50.319 --> 01:19:51.880 but yeah, I made it so just the right track 1737 01:19:51.960 --> 01:19:55.319 pad is the mouse cursor, and then the back left 1738 01:19:55.600 --> 01:19:58.439 top button is like the left click, so you can 1739 01:19:58.479 --> 01:20:00.000 just kind of move around that way a little quick. 1740 01:20:00.920 --> 01:20:03.279 This is neat. I'm tempted to buy this. I'm also 1741 01:20:03.399 --> 01:20:06.239 tempted to gift this to my dad because he really 1742 01:20:06.359 --> 01:20:09.319 really likes Bilotro. He plays it every day. I know 1743 01:20:09.399 --> 01:20:11.359 he does, because I get a ping when I'm working 1744 01:20:12.359 --> 01:20:16.359 when people in my close friends list open up a game. 1745 01:20:16.439 --> 01:20:20.600 And he plays this every day. I think he tells 1746 01:20:20.640 --> 01:20:23.439 me he gets a coffee, opens up his stocks, and 1747 01:20:23.479 --> 01:20:26.880 then plays Bilatro for two hours or like until he loses. 1748 01:20:27.039 --> 01:20:29.439 I love that then, and that's like a part of 1749 01:20:29.479 --> 01:20:33.239 his existence. I don't think this is probably going to 1750 01:20:33.279 --> 01:20:36.640 become a part of his day to day. But I 1751 01:20:36.640 --> 01:20:39.640 think Pitcross is like something we can all spend an 1752 01:20:39.640 --> 01:20:41.399 afternoon doing and enjoying. 1753 01:20:41.960 --> 01:20:44.800 Yeah, And it does seem like there's a good amount 1754 01:20:44.840 --> 01:20:47.079 of longevity to it because like they're different classes where 1755 01:20:47.079 --> 01:20:49.359 it's like, oh, the Archer has this thing where it's 1756 01:20:49.359 --> 01:20:52.039 like the Archer when you fill in one row, it'll 1757 01:20:52.079 --> 01:20:54.800 like automatically fill in all the x's on the up 1758 01:20:54.800 --> 01:20:57.720 and down, left and right. And then there's the Archer 1759 01:20:57.760 --> 01:20:59.560 that does certain things where it's I forget whether the 1760 01:20:59.560 --> 01:21:01.199 details are that, but they all have their own like 1761 01:21:01.279 --> 01:21:05.600 level up dial and you'll get persistent upgrades and stuff 1762 01:21:05.640 --> 01:21:07.279 as you level up at each of the classes. So 1763 01:21:07.800 --> 01:21:10.199 I mean, I'm always having a good time. I'm playing placrosse. 1764 01:21:10.239 --> 01:21:12.159 So you give me any kind of these like long 1765 01:21:12.239 --> 01:21:14.079 tail type things on it, and like, I'm gonna play 1766 01:21:14.079 --> 01:21:14.880 the shit out of this game. 1767 01:21:15.119 --> 01:21:17.079 I think for less than ten dollars too, this is 1768 01:21:17.119 --> 01:21:19.039 the type of game you probably could pour a shit 1769 01:21:19.119 --> 01:21:19.880 ton of hours in. 1770 01:21:21.000 --> 01:21:26.239 Absolutely, it's got a demo too on Steam, got free 1771 01:21:26.279 --> 01:21:30.159 demo ten dollars.

Dan's 1960 01:30:48.199 --> 01:30:50.760 distaste for dungeons and dragons made me think, what are 1961 01:30:50.800 --> 01:30:53.600 some examples of times you were resistant to try something 1962 01:30:54.039 --> 01:30:56.239 only to find out you love it. PS. Mike, you 1963 01:30:56.279 --> 01:30:59.119 recommended Invisible Cities to me previously. It's one of my 1964 01:30:59.119 --> 01:31:01.039 favorite novels of all time. Thank you. It was Nathan 1965 01:31:01.479 --> 01:31:05.279 from an Age, New Hampshire, things that we thought we 1966 01:31:05.319 --> 01:31:08.039 would hate and then we wound up liking. I mean, 1967 01:31:08.960 --> 01:31:11.560 there was definitely like a lot of things that just 1968 01:31:11.680 --> 01:31:14.640 like I had weird aversions too, I mean almost always 1969 01:31:14.640 --> 01:31:19.439 because my dad where it's like coffee, wine like and 1970 01:31:19.520 --> 01:31:22.279 things like like for ins nice dinners. That's a thing 1971 01:31:22.359 --> 01:31:24.560 where it's like my dad was always so so cheap 1972 01:31:24.560 --> 01:31:25.960 and like he wouldn't even go to a fast food 1973 01:31:26.000 --> 01:31:28.159 place if he doesn't have a cubon. That's still the case. 1974 01:31:28.399 --> 01:31:31.000 So like the idea of like going to a nice 1975 01:31:31.039 --> 01:31:34.319 dinner or something like that is so like would be 1976 01:31:34.399 --> 01:31:36.720 so mocked my entire life. And it's like once I 1977 01:31:36.840 --> 01:31:40.760 just got like older and married and stuff, and it's like, yeah, 1978 01:31:40.760 --> 01:31:42.520 we should go try all these nice places. It's like 1979 01:31:42.520 --> 01:31:44.720 like this time living in Minneapolis versus the first time 1980 01:31:44.760 --> 01:31:46.880 I lived there is completely different because I was just 1981 01:31:46.880 --> 01:31:48.880 way more like my dad the first time, and I 1982 01:31:48.920 --> 01:31:52.720 only ate cheap ass garbage and I still love cheapass garbage, 1983 01:31:52.720 --> 01:31:54.720 but now we go to like nice restaurants and stuff 1984 01:31:54.760 --> 01:31:57.119 and it's like, oh, I really like this and it 1985 01:31:57.159 --> 01:31:59.239 feels like you're really treating yourself and everything. And that's 1986 01:31:59.239 --> 01:32:02.800 the thing I never felt comfortable doing before was brain 1987 01:32:02.880 --> 01:32:03.479 to not like it. 1988 01:32:04.279 --> 01:32:07.880 Yeah, I think my big one would just be the beach. 1989 01:32:08.439 --> 01:32:10.880 I've all, like, most of my life, I've hated the 1990 01:32:10.920 --> 01:32:14.239 beach and I just I didn't like it. It takes 1991 01:32:14.359 --> 01:32:16.600 it's such an effort, and I'm like, I'm not talking 1992 01:32:16.640 --> 01:32:18.279 like a little private thing you can walk on to 1993 01:32:18.359 --> 01:32:20.680 when you get an airbnb with like lake access or 1994 01:32:20.680 --> 01:32:24.600 something that's always great. I'm talking like pack up the car, 1995 01:32:24.840 --> 01:32:27.800 drive to the beach, and then like go down the beach, 1996 01:32:27.920 --> 01:32:29.520 find the spot or you like, and then you're kind 1997 01:32:29.520 --> 01:32:33.039 of surrounded by people. Marrying Amanda has changed my mind 1998 01:32:33.039 --> 01:32:35.880 and I get the appeal now, and also like, I mean, 1999 01:32:35.920 --> 01:32:38.279 look at me. I'm not the best in sun for 2000 01:32:38.359 --> 01:32:41.920 prolonged periods of time, but I've started to embrace like 2001 01:32:41.960 --> 01:32:43.960 the zen of it when you do it to go 2002 01:32:44.119 --> 01:32:46.159 just relax and I'll like dip into the water every 2003 01:32:46.159 --> 01:32:47.560 once in a while, come back out, lay in the 2004 01:32:47.560 --> 01:32:49.520 sun and then I'll just read like an entire book 2005 01:32:49.520 --> 01:32:52.039 all day. I used to hate the beach. It was 2006 01:32:52.079 --> 01:32:56.880 like my least favorite outdoor activity. Not a biome, you 2007 01:32:56.920 --> 01:33:00.000 know what I mean. But I'm I'm I still wouldn't 2008 01:33:00.039 --> 01:33:03.239 I'm a beach guy, But you see the appeal. Now 2009 01:33:03.319 --> 01:33:05.760 I see the appeal and I embrace it every summer, 2010 01:33:05.800 --> 01:33:06.199 for sure. 2011 01:33:07.039 --> 01:33:09.960 I think that's nice. Like we're all I would consider 2012 01:33:10.039 --> 01:33:12.800 moderately stubborn people. So it's good to be able to 2013 01:33:12.920 --> 01:33:16.399 like recognize growth and be like I can like these things. 2014 01:33:16.479 --> 01:33:21.000 I can enjoy something I didn't like before. I've never 2015 01:33:21.920 --> 01:33:24.439 been into sports. I've never felt like I could get 2016 01:33:24.439 --> 01:33:27.399 into it. I don't care when I say sports, I 2017 01:33:27.439 --> 01:33:30.159 mean like watching the game, right, It's just not something 2018 01:33:30.199 --> 01:33:35.560 that I do. But I had a double sports week 2019 01:33:35.600 --> 01:33:39.239 because it was the Super Bowl, which I watched specifically 2020 01:33:39.319 --> 01:33:41.960 for Bad Bunny, and I ended up like liking watching 2021 01:33:42.359 --> 01:33:43.800 I actually didn't think the game was great, but like, 2022 01:33:43.800 --> 01:33:48.039 I enjoyed watching it and I enjoyed watching the halftime show. 2023 01:33:48.399 --> 01:33:52.920 And then the next day I got tickets to a 2024 01:33:53.000 --> 01:33:56.319 basketball game local, the Portland Blazers. 2025 01:33:56.479 --> 01:33:58.199 Wait, you went to a Blazer game? Who was that 2026 01:33:58.239 --> 01:33:59.279 when they're playing the Spurs. 2027 01:34:00.119 --> 01:34:02.239 Yeah, I got free ticket seventy six ers. 2028 01:34:02.479 --> 01:34:04.119 Oh, the seventy six ers. That was a good game too. 2029 01:34:04.520 --> 01:34:07.560 And I don't go to basketball games, nor do I 2030 01:34:07.600 --> 01:34:09.479 watch them, and so I was like, this is gonna 2031 01:34:09.520 --> 01:34:14.479 be silly, like I'm gonna go and probably be bored, 2032 01:34:14.640 --> 01:34:19.640 and you guys, I was all in. I mean, I 2033 01:34:19.760 --> 01:34:23.479 was amazed with how talented and entertaining the game was. 2034 01:34:23.640 --> 01:34:27.159 The food was fucking good too, Dan, Like I specifically 2035 01:34:27.239 --> 01:34:29.000 say you, because I think often when you go to 2036 01:34:29.000 --> 01:34:32.239 these things, you're like, it's gonna be like crappy nacho cheese. Dude, 2037 01:34:32.359 --> 01:34:34.960 it was like but it was like delicious. It had 2038 01:34:35.000 --> 01:34:39.439 like pork roasted pork nachos and stuff like that, and 2039 01:34:39.560 --> 01:34:42.680 the pretzels with the dippies and I got popcorn with 2040 01:34:42.720 --> 01:34:46.199 all the fixings. I found five dollars beers. I was 2041 01:34:46.239 --> 01:34:50.439 going crazy and then yeah that's crazy, yes, wow, And 2042 01:34:50.479 --> 01:34:52.760 I was. I was having so much fun, like I 2043 01:34:52.760 --> 01:34:54.520 would like in college when you like go to a 2044 01:34:54.560 --> 01:34:56.720 college game. I was like, it was I was a 2045 01:34:56.800 --> 01:35:01.640 kid again. Their star player his name is too Money 2046 01:35:01.680 --> 01:35:02.439 and so like he. 2047 01:35:03.079 --> 01:35:04.439 Wait, who's for the Blazers. 2048 01:35:04.800 --> 01:35:07.960 Yeah, and he just kept scoring and. 2049 01:35:07.920 --> 01:35:11.800 You got Denny Afdia too, and we kept saying gorgeous 2050 01:35:12.119 --> 01:35:13.319 that Israeli sensation. 2051 01:35:13.560 --> 01:35:17.479 They're all smoking. Yeah, but like how fun is it that? 2052 01:35:17.600 --> 01:35:21.800 Like we just kept being like too money buckets, he's 2053 01:35:22.000 --> 01:35:25.840 too good, Like it was so good, like enjoying these 2054 01:35:25.880 --> 01:35:28.439 players and like the little jokes that they would do. 2055 01:35:28.439 --> 01:35:30.920 They're all in green screens, like pretending to eat like 2056 01:35:31.000 --> 01:35:33.720 McDonald's sandwiches because I think McDonald's was a sponsor, and 2057 01:35:33.720 --> 01:35:36.079 it's just like I think I got into the whole thing, 2058 01:35:36.760 --> 01:35:40.199 the crappy green screen of the players being like swoosh. 2059 01:35:40.239 --> 01:35:40.479 You know. 2060 01:35:42.079 --> 01:35:44.279 They do like to get the crowd going. During commercial 2061 01:35:44.319 --> 01:35:47.439 breaks and timeouts, they'll do like all right, everybody like 2062 01:35:48.760 --> 01:35:50.279 and then they'll have the players do it on the 2063 01:35:50.279 --> 01:35:52.359 screen like record yeah. 2064 01:35:51.960 --> 01:35:57.760 Bad bad, and it's it's but it's it's good, bad good, 2065 01:35:58.600 --> 01:36:00.680 and they embrace it. Yeah, there doing it right, and 2066 01:36:00.680 --> 01:36:02.800 they're probably getting paid like a decent amount to do it. 2067 01:36:02.840 --> 01:36:04.920 And I think by the end of the game, yes, 2068 01:36:04.960 --> 01:36:06.840 I was like five beers deep, but I was like 2069 01:36:07.520 --> 01:36:12.640 I was full of nachos and popcorn. I got ice 2070 01:36:12.680 --> 01:36:15.760 cream at some point. I remember I just remember every 2071 01:36:16.319 --> 01:36:20.159 quarter I was like a little snack and watch too money, 2072 01:36:20.279 --> 01:36:23.039 like fucking fuck these people up. It was so fun. 2073 01:36:23.560 --> 01:36:27.479 We won like it was a crazy landslide. 2074 01:36:26.600 --> 01:36:29.279 To memory serves, it was good. 2075 01:36:30.000 --> 01:36:31.760 It was a good game, and I left. I left 2076 01:36:31.800 --> 01:36:35.520 being like I was wrong. Basketball's fun. Sports are fun. 2077 01:36:35.840 --> 01:36:38.920 Going to a sports game is fun. I gotta get 2078 01:36:38.960 --> 01:36:41.960 more into sports, and so I'm glad that I learned 2079 01:36:41.960 --> 01:36:43.039 from that experience. 2080 01:36:43.520 --> 01:36:47.119 Yeah, We're going to Warriors Nicks in a few weeks 2081 01:36:47.119 --> 01:36:49.720 in March. I can't wait. I've never been to a, uh, 2082 01:36:50.279 --> 01:36:53.119 that's cool, an NBA game. I've been to many basketball games, 2083 01:36:53.159 --> 01:36:55.199 but not NBA. But yeah, there's like for all the 2084 01:36:55.199 --> 01:36:57.680 people that scoff at sports, but I absolutely get that 2085 01:36:57.680 --> 01:36:59.840 many aspects of the culture are very off putting. And 2086 01:36:59.880 --> 01:37:02.800 I don't argue with that whatsoever. I was just telling Dan, 2087 01:37:02.960 --> 01:37:07.920 like a lot of I will say, mostly guys in 2088 01:37:08.000 --> 01:37:10.439 like certain circles. All they talk about when I'm trying to, 2089 01:37:10.479 --> 01:37:12.039 like when I'm trying to watch the NBA is like 2090 01:37:12.039 --> 01:37:15.159 what their bets are, and I get it. Sometimes they'll 2091 01:37:15.319 --> 01:37:16.800 try to have fun and put like a ten dollars 2092 01:37:16.800 --> 01:37:18.760 bet on, like the coin toss, the super Bowl. I'm like, 2093 01:37:18.760 --> 01:37:21.800 all right, sure, whatever, but like it's taken over sports 2094 01:37:21.800 --> 01:37:25.760 conversations so much that I really need to silo myself 2095 01:37:25.800 --> 01:37:29.079 away from that. I'm not trying to be like holier 2096 01:37:29.079 --> 01:37:31.760 than thou, I just I actually really really enjoy basketball. 2097 01:37:31.760 --> 01:37:33.239 I don't want to know what the over under is. 2098 01:37:33.279 --> 01:37:35.000 I don't want to know, Like I don't care about 2099 01:37:35.000 --> 01:37:36.960 the bets, the betting odds. I just care more about, 2100 01:37:37.000 --> 01:37:39.520 like what are the odds that this unskilled team is 2101 01:37:39.560 --> 01:37:41.319 going to beat the skilled team as the underdog. But 2102 01:37:41.359 --> 01:37:45.920 like the communal aspect of going to certain sports, I 2103 01:37:45.960 --> 01:37:48.319 will say I don't like go into football games. I 2104 01:37:48.359 --> 01:37:50.640 would much rather watch football on TV. And I don't 2105 01:37:50.640 --> 01:37:52.359 even want really like watching football that better. 2106 01:37:52.439 --> 01:37:55.439 Because the stadium is so big, you get a better 2107 01:37:55.560 --> 01:37:58.800 view from the camera angle than you would in the 2108 01:37:58.880 --> 01:38:03.239 auditorium where is the basketball game. I had a great view. 2109 01:38:03.319 --> 01:38:05.920 My view was better than the camera view. I could 2110 01:38:05.960 --> 01:38:08.239 see the players, I could see everything. I felt like 2111 01:38:08.279 --> 01:38:12.079 I was fortunate to be in the auditorium for that one. 2112 01:38:12.119 --> 01:38:13.279 But football is too big. 2113 01:38:13.560 --> 01:38:15.199 Well, I feel like with football, the thing is like 2114 01:38:15.199 --> 01:38:17.199 it almost behooves you to be higher up because it's 2115 01:38:17.199 --> 01:38:19.039 so much better, like actually seeing the play and the 2116 01:38:19.039 --> 01:38:21.119 formations and everything. The higher up you are you can 2117 01:38:21.159 --> 01:38:23.720 actually kind of see what receivers are open and kind 2118 01:38:23.760 --> 01:38:26.479 of see where everyone's at versus down below. It's a 2119 01:38:26.520 --> 01:38:27.079 little harder. 2120 01:38:27.479 --> 01:38:30.800 I know, I've been I like going to hockey games 2121 01:38:30.840 --> 01:38:32.359 as well. I've never been to an NHL game, but 2122 01:38:32.399 --> 01:38:34.239 I've been to hockey games like college level, and I 2123 01:38:34.279 --> 01:38:36.520 always had fun there. But yeah, it's like the communal 2124 01:38:36.560 --> 01:38:39.119 aspect of it, like the live show aspect of it, 2125 01:38:39.199 --> 01:38:42.079 the unpredictability of the show. It's not like you're going 2126 01:38:42.119 --> 01:38:45.319 and seeing a set list. You're going to see something unpredictable. 2127 01:38:45.880 --> 01:38:52.000 It's great, But yeah, I would say like the that's 2128 01:38:52.079 --> 01:38:54.359 probably mine would be the beach. 2129 01:38:55.079 --> 01:38:58.199 I thought of a real obvious one for me, yoga, 2130 01:38:58.760 --> 01:39:02.039 where if you would have asked me in college or like, oh, 2131 01:39:02.039 --> 01:39:03.640 what do you think yoga is, I'd be like, Oh. 2132 01:39:03.479 --> 01:39:05.840 That's the hippie, nippy, new ag bullshit thing. 2133 01:39:08.479 --> 01:39:09.960 I assume that's what college can do. 2134 01:39:10.359 --> 01:39:13.359 Was to say no, I just would have like really 2135 01:39:13.479 --> 01:39:14.720 belittled it quite a bit. 2136 01:39:14.600 --> 01:39:17.119 And it's like he's he's changed. 2137 01:39:17.199 --> 01:39:20.680 Oh yeah, But I think when I say like, sorry, 2138 01:39:20.720 --> 01:39:23.680 that's like rude.

Oh, this is just 2190 01:41:23.239 --> 01:41:24.319 like a workout thing. 2191 01:41:24.279 --> 01:41:26.920 Yeah for men, right, and I tried it. 2192 01:41:27.000 --> 01:41:28.920 I was like, but then I immediately started going to 2193 01:41:28.960 --> 01:41:30.439 classes and stuff and I was like the only dude 2194 01:41:30.439 --> 01:41:31.760 in most of these, But it was like, no, this 2195 01:41:31.840 --> 01:41:33.800 is a fucking great workout. I love it. Like I 2196 01:41:33.840 --> 01:41:35.840 never attached it to any kind of like I think 2197 01:41:35.880 --> 01:41:38.560 I mistakenly thought, and people still think that's about yoga. 2198 01:41:38.560 --> 01:41:40.840 They don't know anything about yoga is that it's like, oh, 2199 01:41:41.119 --> 01:41:44.119 everyone attaches some like mystical element to it, and you 2200 01:41:44.199 --> 01:41:46.479 will get that. Like I've gone to enough actual yoga 2201 01:41:46.479 --> 01:41:49.279 classes that you'll definitely get those teachers that are just like, oh, 2202 01:41:49.359 --> 01:41:51.840 open the hard chakra or this and this is you know, 2203 01:41:51.880 --> 01:41:55.199 they get way more flowery with the stuff. But then 2204 01:41:55.479 --> 01:41:57.479 it is also just like a fucking workout, like I 2205 01:41:57.520 --> 01:42:00.279 do the Elicon yoga stuff, like all the time out in. 2206 01:42:00.239 --> 01:42:01.880 Your body to lift your own body weight. 2207 01:42:02.000 --> 01:42:04.520 It was like there's there's like the Dragon where you're 2208 01:42:04.520 --> 01:42:07.079 doing this for like at the end of the class 2209 01:42:07.079 --> 01:42:09.279 for an hour or it's like for like ten minutes 2210 01:42:09.279 --> 01:42:11.199 straight in your shoulders are just on fire. 2211 01:42:11.560 --> 01:42:14.720 Yeah.

I don't know why, but I think the 2229 01:42:53.520 --> 01:42:55.760 Alger of the months on YouTube was like men doing 2230 01:42:55.840 --> 01:42:57.760 pilates and it was all these like really strong men 2231 01:42:57.880 --> 01:42:58.720 being like, oh, I. 2232 01:42:58.760 --> 01:43:00.920 Wonder why it's hard. 2233 01:43:01.000 --> 01:43:03.840 It's hard on your core, it's hard on your should 2234 01:43:03.880 --> 01:43:06.439 try it on your on your muscles, and you have 2235 01:43:06.479 --> 01:43:08.079 to you have to deal with your own weight. 2236 01:43:08.199 --> 01:43:09.960 That's its purpose, body weight exercise. 2237 01:43:10.079 --> 01:43:11.880 Yeah, yeah, tell me, tell me how it goes. 2238 01:43:12.119 --> 01:43:14.079 I have a friend who does a lot of solid core. 2239 01:43:14.279 --> 01:43:17.359 Is that similar to Pilate's do you know? So? Yeah, 2240 01:43:18.079 --> 01:43:20.199 it's like a newer one, but it's also like specific 2241 01:43:20.239 --> 01:43:22.000 company doing like they have. 2242 01:43:22.159 --> 01:43:23.520 There's a lot of forms. 2243 01:43:24.000 --> 01:43:27.159 Okay, an orange orange fitness, orange theory whatever. 2244 01:43:27.359 --> 01:43:29.439 I'm sure people who are really into it would probably 2245 01:43:29.439 --> 01:43:31.399 be like, no, they're very different. But to me as 2246 01:43:31.439 --> 01:43:34.079 an outsider who who like dabbles, I dabble in yoga, 2247 01:43:34.079 --> 01:43:36.079 I dabble in pilates and dabble in all these things 2248 01:43:36.800 --> 01:43:38.520 just to like mix it up, because I get bored 2249 01:43:38.760 --> 01:43:42.920 with workout routines really fast, and so every two weeks 2250 01:43:42.920 --> 01:43:45.479 I usually start a different program and do it until 2251 01:43:45.520 --> 01:43:46.399 I get bored of it. 2252 01:43:47.840 --> 01:43:48.199 Yeah. 2253 01:43:48.239 --> 01:43:50.279 So I've I've done a lot of different versions of them, 2254 01:43:50.279 --> 01:43:52.079 but I'll never forget pilates. 2255 01:43:52.920 --> 01:43:54.039 Okay, I gotta try it. 2256 01:43:54.600 --> 01:43:58.560 Yeah, all right, thank you, Nathan. I will get this 2257 01:43:58.760 --> 01:44:02.079 last one. Thanks to Dan I have the song Bundle 2258 01:44:02.119 --> 01:44:05.239 of Nerves playing in my head constantly. It's a waking nightmare, 2259 01:44:05.359 --> 01:44:08.720 only lessened by the images of and by the image 2260 01:44:08.800 --> 01:44:10.880 of Mike Manatti in a wig, appearing to be so 2261 01:44:10.920 --> 01:44:12.800 frustrated he's trying to pull the fake hairs out of 2262 01:44:12.840 --> 01:44:16.920 his head, and that one day Dan will us. It's 2263 01:44:18.000 --> 01:44:20.880 only lessened also by the idea that one day Dan 2264 01:44:20.920 --> 01:44:23.000 will indeed pay. So, what's the worst song you've ever 2265 01:44:23.039 --> 01:44:28.479 had stuck in your head? Yours faithfully, Alex in Bendigo, Australia, 2266 01:44:29.560 --> 01:44:34.000 probably like it's also the worst song would probably be 2267 01:44:34.119 --> 01:44:35.279 Mombo number five. 2268 01:44:36.800 --> 01:44:40.680 That's for You is incredible yep. Or he just won't 2269 01:44:40.720 --> 01:44:43.520 stop cranking turn it off. 2270 01:44:43.399 --> 01:44:47.479 That one guy legitimately freaking out with the far Backs. Oh, 2271 01:44:47.640 --> 01:44:49.640 actually no, I have one other one. And this is 2272 01:44:49.680 --> 01:44:52.479 like one of the things that Amanda was very surprised 2273 01:44:52.560 --> 01:44:55.399 after we got married to learn that I knew most 2274 01:44:55.399 --> 01:45:00.239 of the song country Girl by Luke Bryan by heart. 2275 01:45:00.000 --> 01:45:02.960 I listened to a I had a friend when I 2276 01:45:03.000 --> 01:45:04.920 was in Sarakee, still living there, Like there was a 2277 01:45:04.960 --> 01:45:08.640 surprising amount of country music going around in Central New York. 2278 01:45:08.720 --> 01:45:11.079 So I still to this day can remember most of 2279 01:45:11.159 --> 01:45:15.520 Country Girl. I'm sorry, Yeah, that's unfortunate. I carry it 2280 01:45:15.560 --> 01:45:15.800 with me. 2281 01:45:16.319 --> 01:45:19.880 It's a bob when the lyrics get stuck in there. 2282 01:45:19.960 --> 01:45:24.159 I have a I have a vivid memory of being 2283 01:45:24.199 --> 01:45:29.760 in San Francisco working at at game spot, so poor 2284 01:45:30.399 --> 01:45:36.359 and uh, really wanting to get a massage. I think 2285 01:45:36.359 --> 01:45:38.159 I pulled something and I was like, oh, I think 2286 01:45:38.159 --> 01:45:40.159 a massage will really fix me up. But I can't 2287 01:45:40.159 --> 01:45:43.039 afford to get like a fancy massage from a fancy place. 2288 01:45:43.680 --> 01:45:47.840 I'll go to one of those nail salons where I saw, 2289 01:45:48.239 --> 01:45:49.760 you know, a sign in the window this and we 2290 01:45:49.800 --> 01:45:52.960 also will do a massage and facial for like sixty bucks. 2291 01:45:53.000 --> 01:45:54.880 And I was like, that's a good deal, like a 2292 01:45:54.920 --> 01:45:58.399 sixty dollars massage. I'll just go there. And so I 2293 01:45:58.479 --> 01:46:00.479 go to this. I book it in advance and I 2294 01:46:00.560 --> 01:46:05.279 go and there's these curtains that separate you from the 2295 01:46:05.359 --> 01:46:09.640 nail salon. It's not a room, it's curtains. And that 2296 01:46:09.840 --> 01:46:11.920 was not a great start. But I was like, that's fine, 2297 01:46:11.960 --> 01:46:15.239 this is a affordable massage. I just want someone to 2298 01:46:16.000 --> 01:46:18.920 help me feel better. I can deal with it. And 2299 01:46:18.960 --> 01:46:23.119 I get on the table and the ladies like uh 2300 01:46:23.960 --> 01:46:28.600 has her own music. It's basically a boom box that's 2301 01:46:28.640 --> 01:46:32.359 like in the corner and she's putting on a song 2302 01:46:32.479 --> 01:46:35.199 or whatever, and she starts to massage me and the 2303 01:46:35.239 --> 01:46:38.600 song comes on and it's Timber by Pitbull. 2304 01:46:39.119 --> 01:46:44.600 And Kesha, Yes what it's massage. 2305 01:46:46.319 --> 01:46:49.560 It's a nail salon. Yeah, And I remember being like 2306 01:46:49.640 --> 01:46:52.920 this is so odd, but like again, it's a very 2307 01:46:52.920 --> 01:46:57.239 affordable massage. It's a local place that's probably starting their business. 2308 01:46:57.239 --> 01:46:59.359 I don't know, I'm going to leave it alone. And 2309 01:46:59.399 --> 01:47:02.600 so it's just like I'm getting a massage, like I'm 2310 01:47:02.720 --> 01:47:07.039 yelling Timber. Yeah. 2311 01:47:07.079 --> 01:47:07.720 It's just like a. 2312 01:47:07.800 --> 01:47:14.479 Very strange st So the song ends. I'm still getting 2313 01:47:14.479 --> 01:47:19.199 my massage. The song starts up again. The entire Timber 2314 01:47:19.279 --> 01:47:25.039 by Pitbull song plays a second time, and I'm like, 2315 01:47:25.279 --> 01:47:29.880 that's weird. That should not happen in a playlist. That's uncomfortable. 2316 01:47:30.039 --> 01:47:32.319 I didn't like it the first time, I definitely don't 2317 01:47:32.359 --> 01:47:34.760 like it the second time. But I am not a 2318 01:47:34.800 --> 01:47:36.760 complainer and I don't want to say anything. And so 2319 01:47:36.840 --> 01:47:40.079 I sit there and get massaged for another round of 2320 01:47:40.680 --> 01:47:45.920 Timber by Pitbull. The song ends, Timber by pit Bull 2321 01:47:45.920 --> 01:47:51.359 plays a third time and I say, okay, I can't 2322 01:47:51.359 --> 01:47:52.960 do it, and she goes, all right. 2323 01:47:52.880 --> 01:47:55.920 Well, let me look, and she sides like messing with 2324 01:47:56.000 --> 01:47:58.399 the fucking boom box to put on a different song, 2325 01:47:58.439 --> 01:48:01.560 and she finally puts down like a calm you know, 2326 01:48:01.680 --> 01:48:04.199 like water track where it's just like liquid, like. 2327 01:48:05.399 --> 01:48:09.960 Yeah, I know, and I'm eating there. She knew she 2328 01:48:10.199 --> 01:48:13.359 had the other one ready because she knew at some 2329 01:48:13.399 --> 01:48:15.560 point she would annoy someone with Timber. 2330 01:48:16.119 --> 01:48:20.039 So I'm sitting there getting my massaged like running water 2331 01:48:20.199 --> 01:48:22.359 and in my fucking head for the rest of this 2332 01:48:22.439 --> 01:48:26.119 forty five minute massage. It was just like, let's make 2333 01:48:26.159 --> 01:48:30.520 a net. You won't remember. It's like it's stuck. It 2334 01:48:30.560 --> 01:48:32.279 was stuck in my head the rest of my day. 2335 01:48:32.359 --> 01:48:36.680 This like fucking Pitbull song. So to this day, when 2336 01:48:36.720 --> 01:48:38.920 I hear that song, I kind of I don't hate it, 2337 01:48:38.960 --> 01:48:40.720 but I I laugh and I think of like the 2338 01:48:40.760 --> 01:48:43.479 worst massage I've ever had when I kept hearing pibull. 2339 01:48:45.319 --> 01:48:47.000 It's cheaper though, if you just let it play pipple 2340 01:48:47.039 --> 01:48:48.600 the whole time, they give your discount for something. 2341 01:48:49.239 --> 01:48:53.439 I think she everyone seemed fine with it, but me, 2342 01:48:53.600 --> 01:48:56.840 I was the only person that was like is this 2343 01:48:57.159 --> 01:49:00.159 is this acceptable to everyone else here? Like, I don't 2344 01:49:00.199 --> 01:49:02.600 understand how you can play this once, let alone three 2345 01:49:02.720 --> 01:49:04.920 times and think I'm not going to say something. 2346 01:49:07.199 --> 01:49:11.279 Mine was like a three month period in nineteen ninety nine. 2347 01:49:11.520 --> 01:49:15.159 I was working at AMC thirty theaters inlate the Kansas 2348 01:49:15.239 --> 01:49:18.000 and we I think it was probably the summer because 2349 01:49:18.000 --> 01:49:20.000 I remember working there like every day like long shifts 2350 01:49:20.000 --> 01:49:23.439 and stuff, and we would get these CDs every month 2351 01:49:23.439 --> 01:49:25.760 and it was movie tunes and it was just the 2352 01:49:25.800 --> 01:49:28.479 background music that would play at the theaters basically, and 2353 01:49:28.720 --> 01:49:30.000 you know, it was just like it was like the 2354 01:49:30.039 --> 01:49:31.960 CD length, so it's like what like an hour and 2355 01:49:32.000 --> 01:49:34.119 a half maybe, because you know, people wouldn't would just 2356 01:49:34.119 --> 01:49:35.800 hear while they in line for Popcorn River, but we 2357 01:49:35.800 --> 01:49:38.880 would hear it on repeat every day. And I remember 2358 01:49:38.920 --> 01:49:43.720 living Levita Loco is on there. That's fine, But I 2359 01:49:43.760 --> 01:49:45.399 think this must have been really popular or just came 2360 01:49:45.439 --> 01:49:47.199 out or they paid to be on movie tunes or whatever. 2361 01:49:47.479 --> 01:49:50.960 That song Smooth by Carlos Santana and Rob Thomas. 2362 01:49:50.680 --> 01:49:51.439 Oh yeah, that was. 2363 01:49:52.079 --> 01:49:55.239 It's also It's Jimps and Chimps in About the mid 2364 01:49:55.359 --> 01:49:58.800 Day Son that one that was on that season like 2365 01:49:59.039 --> 01:50:02.520 three times. So every day I was hearing that song 2366 01:50:03.079 --> 01:50:06.640 like dozens of times, and for some reason, we didn't 2367 01:50:06.680 --> 01:50:09.439 get new movie tune CDs for like a couple months, 2368 01:50:09.720 --> 01:50:11.680 so there was a stretch of like three like It's 2369 01:50:11.720 --> 01:50:13.560 probably the song I've heard the most in my life 2370 01:50:13.640 --> 01:50:14.079 because of that. 2371 01:50:14.720 --> 01:50:18.840 I've thought about this before. I used to hate getting 2372 01:50:18.880 --> 01:50:21.560 a song stuck in my head. Now I don't mind 2373 01:50:21.600 --> 01:50:24.479 it as much, And I wonder if it used to 2374 01:50:24.600 --> 01:50:26.560 be more annoying because we'd have it stuck in our 2375 01:50:26.600 --> 01:50:29.159 head and then we'd have like those five CDs in 2376 01:50:29.239 --> 01:50:33.840 our car or that one cassette tape, whereas now it's like, 2377 01:50:34.079 --> 01:50:35.439 I think it's harder for a song to get stuck 2378 01:50:35.479 --> 01:50:37.359 on heavy because we have access to Spotify like any 2379 01:50:37.399 --> 01:50:40.720 song we want in our pocket. So maybe it's not 2380 01:50:40.880 --> 01:50:43.119 like I'm not tied to like Danny California was stuck 2381 01:50:43.159 --> 01:50:44.840 in my head for like years because we just had 2382 01:50:44.880 --> 01:50:47.279 Stadium Arcadium in the car. Su great song still, but 2383 01:50:47.399 --> 01:50:51.680 like I still I have other options if I want 2384 01:50:51.720 --> 01:50:54.520 to go away from like snow Hao every once in 2385 01:50:54.520 --> 01:50:54.840 a while. 2386 01:50:55.800 --> 01:50:59.680 That's very specific. Yeah, just just one of Stadium Arcadian. 2387 01:51:01.359 --> 01:51:04.800 Yeah, yeah, Mars, Yeah, I don't think that if you 2388 01:51:04.920 --> 01:51:07.399 had to listen to Santana for the rest of your 2389 01:51:07.600 --> 01:51:09.800 life that you would be like, I don't mind it. 2390 01:51:09.960 --> 01:51:12.960 I don't mind having Santana in my head for the 2391 01:51:13.079 --> 01:51:14.119 rest of my days. 2392 01:51:14.479 --> 01:51:16.520 It's weird that I will have the eras. 2393 01:51:16.800 --> 01:51:18.880 I'll have eras of my life where it's like I 2394 01:51:18.920 --> 01:51:20.840 will have one song that is the song that I 2395 01:51:20.960 --> 01:51:24.359 default to. You could ask Jason ah Striker any fucking 2396 01:51:24.399 --> 01:51:27.199 time we were getting ready to start a video replay 2397 01:51:27.239 --> 01:51:29.479 a game informer a quick look at Giant Bomb, I 2398 01:51:29.560 --> 01:51:32.520 would be humming without even realizing it, Uh, take me 2399 01:51:32.600 --> 01:51:36.800 Home Tonight by Eddie Money Run Babe, my little baby. 2400 01:51:36.880 --> 01:51:38.920 I would just feel like and he would like remember 2401 01:51:38.920 --> 01:51:40.479 one time he started singing and I was like, wait, 2402 01:51:40.520 --> 01:51:41.760 did you know I would He's like, dang, you've been 2403 01:51:41.840 --> 01:51:43.720 humming that for like five years or something. 2404 01:51:44.279 --> 01:51:45.800 Wow.

Like I don't think, but I think 2454 01:54:21.039 --> 01:54:24.279 a falsetto is more like when a guy sings in 2455 01:54:24.319 --> 01:54:28.800 a high high voice, okay, but sweetly softly, And it's 2456 01:54:28.880 --> 01:54:30.680 still very difficult to do. 2457 01:54:31.439 --> 01:54:34.239 God rewatching mcgoober the other night.
