How's that coming along? 72 00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:13.639 Is it? Game? 73 00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:14.400 Still popular. 74 00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:16.319 I mean, we tend to have games that come out, 75 00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:18.319 they'll be out for a little while and then they 76 00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:19.319 just kind of disappear. 77 00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:23.000 No, No, the So the game where you're referencing is 78 00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:28.159 Project Zomboid, and it is becoming more and more popular 79 00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:31.520 by the day. I mean, I'm seeing more and more 80 00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:36.159 posts on Reddit, more and more posts on x about 81 00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:41.800 the game and the developer apparently he has him or 82 00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:45.319 or his team. I guess they've expanded because remember this 83 00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:51.280 game came out in twenty thirteen and it was eh, okay, yeah, 84 00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:53.879 but like about about a year ago, not even a 85 00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:56.240 year ago. It's been about six months since they released 86 00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:59.599 Build forty two, and Build forty two just changed everything, 87 00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:02.879 and now it's just getting better and better. Now they're 88 00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:06.479 on I think it's forty two dot six, So it's 89 00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:10.280 the sixth iteration that just came out yesterday of Build 90 00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:13.360 forty two. Now there's still no multiplayer in build forty two. 91 00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:16.639 Everybody that wants my multiplayer has to play on Build 92 00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:19.399 forty one, the previous iteration, but it is becoming more 93 00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:22.600 and more popular by the day now. With respect to 94 00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:25.439 your question about the voiceover stuff, you know I did 95 00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:28.720 I did some voiceover work for this mod, which was 96 00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:32.639 in talks with the developer to become vanilla, which means 97 00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:35.839 just included in the base game. I don't know the 98 00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:38.759 status of it right now. Shortly after I did those voices, 99 00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:41.920 I got sick. And I don't normally get sick. But 100 00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:45.480 I'll be honest, this is really weird, Andy, And you'll 101 00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:48.680 know this being you know, a radio DJ. But my 102 00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:52.439 voice was really bad for weeks on end. I mean 103 00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:54.720 it was just I sounded like I would wake up 104 00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:57.639 in the morning and I would have a very deep, 105 00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:01.800 perfect radio voice. But then but like halfway through the day, 106 00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:05.000 it just sounded like I was sick. You turned into 107 00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:08.600 Bobby Brady. Yeah, yeah, and and and it just got 108 00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:10.439 really bad. But you know what, I be honest, like 109 00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:13.519 I'm starting, you know, feeling better and I'm not doing it. 110 00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:16.920 And I don't know what happened with this whole sickness thing, right, 111 00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:20.680 but it has changed my voice like permanently, Like I 112 00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:25.480 have that deep voice now, I feel like all the time. 113 00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:28.319 It's just it's it's like dropped down a half octave. 114 00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:31.040 You probably went through always you went through the change, 115 00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:33.480 you know, it's like you know, I finally hit puberty 116 00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:37.480 at forty four years old.

And then I oh, and then I signed 189 00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:14.480 up for a service because it's a it's a full 190 00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:16.960 fledged laptop, and he has the ability to go anywhere 191 00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:22.200 on the internet. I signed up for this particular where 192 00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:26.399 is it here because it's called custodio, right, because custodio 193 00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:31.159 q U s t O d io custodio And it 194 00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:34.840 is a parental control app that is on his computer, 195 00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:40.720 but it's hidden and he's unable to disable it. And 196 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:44.000 so what this app does is it monitors everything he does, 197 00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:49.159 every application he wants, launches every game, every YouTube video 198 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:52.480 that he searches, every website that he goes to, every 199 00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:55.879 time he tries to bypass admin controls or whatever it 200 00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:59.120 might be. It will alert me immediately on my phone 201 00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:03.120 via the app, also via email. So then I can 202 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:06.000 just completely just shut his computer down, like remotely. I 203 00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:07.960 can shut the computer down. So you get it. 204 00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:10.000 You get a report of hey, he's looking at this. 205 00:10:10.919 --> 00:10:12.919 You don't want to move time, so real time, in 206 00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:15.080 real time, that is awesome. So like if he goes 207 00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:17.720 to YouTube and he's searching Minecraft videos, I don't get 208 00:10:17.720 --> 00:10:20.559 an alert. But if he goes and searches something more 209 00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:24.639 nefarious that an eight year old shouldn't search, it will 210 00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:26.960 alert me and say, hey, your kid is watching some 211 00:10:26.960 --> 00:10:29.919 stuff that he probably shouldn't be watching. But I mean 212 00:10:29.960 --> 00:10:31.600 I'm usually right next to him. I mean, we're not 213 00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:34.120 like letting him go to his room and just you know, 214 00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:37.200 browse the internet like we're watching him. But anyway, this 215 00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:39.879 custodio is really cool and we got a good deal. 216 00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:41.279 I think it was like two years for like one 217 00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:44.480 hundred and sixty bucks, so it wasn't too expensive anyway. 218 00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:47.600 How about the installation of apps like Snapchat for the 219 00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:49.039 web that kind of thing. 220 00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:51.840 Yeah, No, it won't let him install any apps. He's 221 00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:54.720 not an admin on the actually currently he is an 222 00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:56.519 admin on the PC because it's only been a day 223 00:10:56.960 --> 00:10:58.559 since we had it and I haven't had a chance 224 00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:01.440 to remove his administrator privileges. But I will take care 225 00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:03.679 of that. Ye But yeah, no, he won't be able 226 00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:05.200 to install any apps. He won't be able to do 227 00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:08.679 anything that I don't want him to do, which is 228 00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:11.639 it's great. So anyway, we get this thing set up 229 00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:15.080 on Sunday, Sunday afternoon, I'm like, hey, man, let's go celebrate. 230 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:17.679 I want a beer. Let's go over to Bruise. Let's 231 00:11:17.679 --> 00:11:20.120 bring your brand new laptop. Let's sit down. I'm gonna 232 00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:24.440 bring mine. I'm gonna play Assassin's Creed Shadows, the new 233 00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:27.440 Assassin's Creed that's set in Feudal Japan, you know, because 234 00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:32.159 it looks Eric's half Japanese. And he sets up his laptop. 235 00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:35.720 He opens up Minecraft and he starts playing Minecraft. Five 236 00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:42.519 minutes later, he's watching YouTube. I'm like, really, like really, dude, 237 00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:45.799 I didn't just spend one thousand dollars on a laptop 238 00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:48.559 for you to go and watch YouTube. You can watch 239 00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:51.600 YouTube on the tablet, you know. He's like, well, I 240 00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:54.159 just want to watch YouTube. I want to watch Minecraft videos. 241 00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:56.559 I'm like, then, why did I buy you one thousand 242 00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:00.279 dollars laptop? Give him some of the classic games. He 243 00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:02.960 might have some fun with those. You know, I've been trying. 244 00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:08.720 I mean Doom, Yeah, Wolfenstein Yeah yeah, that's great for 245 00:12:08.759 --> 00:12:12.080 an eight role Nocturnal remember that one. Yeah? Anyway, No, 246 00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:13.600 but I mean I've been trying. I've been trying to 247 00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:15.600 get them all kinds of games because I can share 248 00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:17.720 my Steam library with him, So I'm giving them like 249 00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:22.759 things like house Flipper, powerwash simulator, you know, uh uh. 250 00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:25.240 I even gave him Project Zomboid. But he doesn't want 251 00:12:25.240 --> 00:12:25.679 to play. 252 00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:28.720 Though what every eight year old kid wants to play powerwashing? 253 00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:33.039 No, he actually loves it. He does. He actually loves 254 00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:35.919 powerwash simulator. He likes Okay, so here's the thing. You 255 00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:38.519 don't wait, wait, what is what is powerwash simulator? It 256 00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:41.960 sounds it's exactly what it sounds like. You you're a 257 00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:45.000 guy that goes around houses and you powerwash things, and 258 00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:48.639 it's it's it's cathartic, dude, I'm telling you. It sounds 259 00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:51.600 like a joke, but it's not. It is so cathartic 260 00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:54.039 to sit there and just powerwash stuff. 261 00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:58.679 A little cavat here, So simulation games with Justin and 262 00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:01.559 I don't go over. Well, well no, because when I 263 00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:05.559 lived in San Diego and we were playing farming simulator. 264 00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:06.759 Oh my gosh. 265 00:13:06.799 --> 00:13:09.320 The first thing he did in the game was ran 266 00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:14.399 me over with the tractor and then he said, I 267 00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:14.759 don't think. 268 00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:16.519 I don't think. We were five minutes into the game. 269 00:13:16.519 --> 00:13:17.519 He just plows me over. 270 00:13:17.840 --> 00:13:19.360 Yeah, and he's still sitting there. He's like, how did 271 00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:21.000 I survive that. I'm like, I don't know, dude. It's 272 00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:23.240 a simulator, that's what. Well, that's what I'm thinking. Maybe 273 00:13:23.240 --> 00:13:26.519 a simulator game would be cool. Like, well, no, because 274 00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:28.440 here's the thing. Here's the thing. Eric and I what 275 00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:30.519 what what? What? We like to do Him and I 276 00:13:30.600 --> 00:13:32.039 at the end of the night, before he goes to bed, 277 00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:35.679 we like to watch a particular YouTube channel called Let's 278 00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:39.360 Game It Out, and it's a guy who all he 279 00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:42.519 does is he gets he gets these early access simulation 280 00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:45.960 games and he just completely makes fun of them and 281 00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:48.759 he destroys them. He doesn't he doesn't play the game 282 00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:53.320 as it's designed. He basically tests the game to its limits, 283 00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:56.519 and he does crazy things with these games that the 284 00:13:56.519 --> 00:13:59.120 developers are like, oh my god. We got to fix 285 00:13:59.159 --> 00:14:01.440 these bugs. Like they do this on purpose. They'll send 286 00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:04.039 it the game and let him explore the game, and 287 00:14:04.039 --> 00:14:06.120 then they'll go back and they'll fix those bugs because 288 00:14:06.159 --> 00:14:10.840 he's able to expose those bugs. But it becomes really 289 00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:14.440 funny entertainment and Eric and I just love watching let's 290 00:14:14.440 --> 00:14:17.120 game it out on YouTube. So anyway, that's why he 291 00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:21.679 likes simulation games. So I've gotten him, uh a streamer 292 00:14:21.759 --> 00:14:25.600 simulator where you basically get to be like a Twitch streamer. 293 00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:29.480 Oh no, that's cool. Yeah, well, no, the game is horrible. 294 00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:32.000 It's absolutely horrible. It's only like five. It can't be 295 00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:36.120 powerwa Washing Simulator. Oh no, no, Power Washing Simulator is 296 00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:39.039 a triple A title. It is like thirty or forty bucks, 297 00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:41.480 and it is actually worth it. It's actually a really 298 00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:44.960 good game. I got him Lawnmown Simulator, where like literally 299 00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:49.840 you're just mowing lawns. Yeah, no, he loves it. He 300 00:14:49.879 --> 00:14:51.960 hit our kids. We're supposed to get our kids outside 301 00:14:52.039 --> 00:14:55.080 bone lawns were in the desert. We don't. Yeah, we 302 00:14:55.120 --> 00:14:57.759 don't have that. He has to has to learn somehow. Yeah, 303 00:14:57.799 --> 00:15:01.159 but anyway, he loves it. But I just I gotta 304 00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:03.279 get him to play the actual games because he just 305 00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:05.000 wants to watch. Let's game it out. 306 00:15:06.679 --> 00:15:11.120 There is So you talked about Minecraft roadblocks. I know 307 00:15:11.159 --> 00:15:14.360 he's been real big with younger set. Minecraft has been huge. 308 00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:17.200 Now they got a movie coming out about and I'm 309 00:15:17.200 --> 00:15:19.679 thinking we look at other movies like Postal. 310 00:15:19.759 --> 00:15:22.519 The movie did not do that great. There's other movies 311 00:15:22.559 --> 00:15:25.000 that came out that did not do that great. Wait, 312 00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:26.039 there was a Postal movie. 313 00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:29.200 There was a Postal movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we had 314 00:15:29.200 --> 00:15:32.120 to wait. Yes, there was a screening we did in Tucson. 315 00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:34.799 We were there. Tech Talk Radio was there. It was 316 00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:36.799 all five of you, all five people that was it. 317 00:15:36.799 --> 00:15:38.080 It was three of us. 318 00:15:38.120 --> 00:15:40.720 And yeah, no, there were people there because you know, 319 00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:43.159 the guy who created the game was from Tucson, Vince 320 00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:47.120 DEDI I know, but but yeah, I mean and Udo 321 00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:50.440 Kerr I think was the director. It was a pretty 322 00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:53.600 awful movie it I mean, I'll be honest, it was. 323 00:15:53.879 --> 00:15:55.279 The game was more fun to play. 324 00:15:55.840 --> 00:15:59.399 But I'm thinking, will Minecraft and it's got some names 325 00:15:59.399 --> 00:16:01.480 in it, will it be good? 326 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:04.879 Oh?

But it's it's one 360 00:17:31.720 --> 00:17:35.640 of those games where you can literally create anything. 361 00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:38.519 Right, and and Eric has gotten so good at it. 362 00:17:40.119 --> 00:17:44.599 Amazing There there is a collective of people that are 363 00:17:44.640 --> 00:17:48.680 doing a one to one scale replica of Earth as Minecraft. 364 00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:53.599 I mean, the worlds have gotten this, like the the 365 00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:56.799 this the seed is going to literally be like it 366 00:17:56.839 --> 00:17:59.319 will be as big as like if if you were 367 00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:03.039 standing in one block, it would be you're standing in 368 00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:03.480 my house. 369 00:18:03.599 --> 00:18:07.599 Like they're making a scale version of Oh wow, cities 370 00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:08.359 and everything. 371 00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:11.400 Yeah, yeah, it's it's actually pretty crazy. I mean no, 372 00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:14.279 it's got a massive following and honestly, it got even 373 00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:17.240 bigger when my when Microsoft purchased it. What have they 374 00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:19.559 purchased it for? They purchased it from Notch. Notch was 375 00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:24.680 the original creator Marcus Pearson went by Notch. Microsoft purchased it. 376 00:18:24.680 --> 00:18:28.119 But I want to say, back in twenty twelve, I think, 377 00:18:28.200 --> 00:18:30.279 and they purchased it for like a billion dollars or 378 00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:30.960 something like that. 379 00:18:31.480 --> 00:18:35.960 In twenty fourteen, Notch sold Minecraft Microsoft for two point 380 00:18:36.000 --> 00:18:36.599 five billion. 381 00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:38.680 Okay, I was a little off, little off, but yeah, 382 00:18:38.680 --> 00:18:42.160 But anyway, Microsoft took this and ran with it, and 383 00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:45.640 they have actually done a pretty darn good job. I mean, 384 00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.039 first off, it was in Java, it was written in Java, 385 00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:52.200 the language, the programming language. They recreated the entire game 386 00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:55.319 in what they call Bedrock, which is what is now 387 00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:59.279 the most the most played version because Bedrock can be 388 00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:05.279 played across all platforms PlayStation, Xbox, PC, mold, witch Switch, 389 00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:08.160 all of it, whereas Java can only be played on PC. 390 00:19:09.079 --> 00:19:11.799 Some of the more hardcore players will play on Java 391 00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:15.440 because there's a lot more modding allowed, but Bedrock is 392 00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:20.119 catching up with that. But instead of modding, Bedrock allows 393 00:19:20.119 --> 00:19:24.000 you to just purchase add ons and purchase mods. So 394 00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:25.960 that's where Microsoft is making all their money off of. 395 00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:30.119 But Eric has already spent probably a good couple hundred 396 00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:34.079 dollars on Minecraft himself, wow, just buying like extra like 397 00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:37.960 skins and cities and worlds. But some of the things 398 00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:40.599 that he's created are just absolutely amazing, and he plays 399 00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:43.119 with his friends all the time. They're all jumping online 400 00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:45.960 at the same time, playing on a server. They just 401 00:19:46.039 --> 00:19:46.359
